celebrate our lord and savior not just dying not just being in a tomb i'm getting happy but on the third day somebody say the third day he rose again with all power and so today we celebrate a risen savior will you give him praise right now hallelujah [Music] you're like did that man take ritalin or something no no no no i just knew where i was when god found me and his resurrection power found me and the difference that separates christianity from every other religion is that everybody else had a god but when they died they died when buddha died they only can make big statues when christians died they only had pictures with my heart y'all don't hear me when every other god died they died but when christ died [Music] [Applause] he got up and today we celebrate the resurrection

these different things and i want to let you know right now that god is in control somebody said god is in control and the reason i need you to know that god is in control is because he says in

prayer in jesus name we agree will somebody give god one more huge shout oh come on give him a huge shout of praise amen all right i got a message for you right now and i'm so excited because we have put together um this idea that everybody that is born into this world is stained stained by something stained by somebody stained by other people's decisions stained by their own decisions and what i found out is that many people are living trying to hide their stains now all y'all can be fake if you want to but the truth is there is something that is going on in your heart your soul and your mind right now that you don't want me to see okay y'all gonna be saying right now i could open some of your phones right now and just see it it'd be right there you wouldn't want pastor mike to see it the crazy thing about it is you care more about me seeing it but god's there right now [Applause] he was there when the stain was made he was there when you tried to put makeup on it and beat your face and and and try to cover up the stain of insecurity oh i'm coming straight for i ain't even got time today i got to go right to it he was there when you double down on the business because you thought that being successful in that arena would allow you to hide the very deep stains of being overlooked as a child in your family and so now i'm going to make them notice me and i'm going to have the money and i'm going to have the car and i'm going to have the woman and i'm going to have the kids and now you're staining another generation [Applause] because you have been hiding your stains with things and neglecting the ones that god called you to raise everybody say stained yeah the truth of the matter is all of us have stains specifically the one talking to you right now see i'm coming to you talking from a place of humility and a place of knowing who i actually am see the thing about my stains is if you don't know them i know them i woke up with them i know the thoughts that i have when nobody's looking i know the things that i watched too long on that certain channel when everybody was asleep i know the things the deep roots of the things that i do to be seen and to be loved i know the places i've gone not because i was accepted there but because i just wanted to feel something stained and i know i'm kind of heavy and there's somebody right now that's thinking past the mic i'm not going to take 35 minutes of this i can't do it so let me bring it up for you i'm coming back for you just but just bring it up see i'm going to tell you something that you may not know about me is your pastor is a messy eater now if my wife could tell all of y'all all the time she tells me don't eat there because you're gonna mess up the carpet or don't eat here because you're gonna spill that i'll be like girl don't worry about it i'm gonna do it and inevitably for some reason when i finish eating no matter how careful i am there's always something that spills on the floor and the reason is not because i don't know where my mouth is i'm very aware you can tell by my waist size where my mouth is i know where it is the problem is i like sauces does anybody like sauces i consider myself somewhat of a sausologist right now in the comments i need you to shout out and type your favorite sauce come on let me hear what's your favorite sauce i heard ranch i heard sriracha polynesian oh chick-fil-a got some sauces chick-fil-a sauce you could put that on anything even cereal and it's good chick-fil-a that was like but i'm a sausage and so one of the things about when i eat and why my eating is so messy is because when i eat before i start taking bites i dip it in a bunch of sauce and as i'm enjoying the delectable wonderful delightful sauce combinations that are exploding in my mouth many times there's so much there that a little bit drips off and i started thinking about this one time that i had the audacity to wear all white to an event i mean i was clean though don't trip your boy was colleen period poo i was clean but they had the audacity to have steak there and when i have steak i need my a1 i need my barbecue sauce this is different for some of y'all i need my sriracha i put sriracha on everything and i was dipping and whipping and dipping and whipping i was doing it i made it through my whole meal you know how you eat and then you check i was eating and checking i made it through my whole meal got to the last bite and when i hit that last bite you know sometimes you just do a little extra like whipping and dipping living and i just put it in my mouth and it was like slow motion happened i bit down and it was like [Laughter] that mug went all the way down from the top of my head to the side and literally it was at the beginning of the event so the rest of the night when i went in to say what's going on everybody i looked at their face and they looked at my stain [Applause] i i went in and i was like good to see you and i knew they weren't looking at me anymore because what once was very clean had now become very damaged by something they didn't experience but they can see the residue of and it brought me to the thing of your attitude that you have the things that you go to how you medicate yourself all of those different things we see the stains of what we weren't there to witness but the proof is on you and as i begin to look at my life i look like that outfit i look good on the outside until you actually get to see my stains and i know there's some self-righteous people who are sitting there with your easter finest on at your house and you talking about i ain't got no stains baby the bible tells us write this down first point we all have stains somebody say i have stains some of y'all couldn't even get that out because you're so self-righteous and prideful right now you don't see it the thing about me is i did not see the stain the way others saw it i'm walking around with it on me but it's evident to me when i look down it's evident to them when they look at me at all and the crazy thing about this life is we're walking around with people and around people and many times they see our stains and today i just want to let you know that your stains aren't better than their stains yeah i gotta come set it straight from the very beginning because some of you think the little white lie is different than homosexuality but when you go to the foot of the cross it says that it is an even playing field so you can be in church lying and talking about people or living in an alternate lifestyle and god said you're still staying and i don't know what you've been stained by but some of you have been stained by secrets secrets that are in your family right now secrets that even as i'm talking to you they're touching your heart right now stains from conversations you've had with people stains from the mother that did not validate you because she knew something she didn't want anybody else to know so she kept it a secret what happened to you in that house yeah no no i know i know i know i know we don't want to talk about it for real but many of us right now are hugging people secret relationships [Music] [Applause] in the dms with people secrets and the thing about the secrets is it left a mark on you and as much as i try to go away from it and only come back once a month every time i connect with that secret the longer it stays alive the more i try to only do it when i really need it it finds itself a part of me and now i go to church on the praise team like this and now i'm raising kids like this and now i'm trying to do this and the thing is now they're nowhere to be found the secrets go away from me in my action but i still have proof that it impacted my life [Applause] and all i'm saying to you is that we all have same somebody say we all have stains and i know that some of you have run so far away from that childhood past from that trauma that thing that has happened but i'm telling you the trauma was never dealt with and so you have been affected by the secrets and the secrets have given birth to trauma yep hold on i didn't know that it was going to affect me i'm 35 years old why is 13 year old me coming out in the workplace hold on i didn't know i didn't know i thought i would be okay if i just left that denomination or if i just left that church but the secrets and the trauma now have become something that i fought my whole teenage career and i thought when i went to college and i left my family and i left those people and i moved to a different country that it would go away but the trauma left but the trauma's still on me and now every thanksgiving it walks away for 11 months but comes back every christmas good to see you i missed you you're heavy you're awake let's act like everything's cool and now the pain i had with my high school sweetheart has followed me into my marriage we couldn't talk so now the person i'm supposed to be with we can't talk thanks for taking your stains and marking me see all i'm trying to let you know is that even the one talking we all have stains and maybe your stain didn't come from secrets and maybe your stain didn't come from trauma but maybe your stain is coming from addiction it's only every once in a while i picked up this little habit you understand what's up bro hey man thanks bro that party was crazy last night it was lit man it's the only thing that made me feel like it was worth it bro thank you ro for hyping me up i'm in college i got to do my thing i'm in high school i got to do my thing now i'm in the boardroom i got to do my thing man thank you for supporting me it's the thing that always lifts me up and whether your addiction is a substance or a person yeah yeah no we only connect every summer thanks thanks for giving me that high again thanks for calming me down thanks for being my peace thanks for being my peace and what ends up happening is the thing about addiction is it goes away it goes away but it doesn't come back to you you go back to it just needed another hit now i'm gonna go live for god ah but i just need to be touched one more time i need to be held one more time and now i'm gonna go get married but ah i need to be able to make sure i try to chase that high again and it's a cycle that many of you right now are trapped in as i'm talking to you and i know the pain and i know some of you have tears flowing down your face right now because what has happened to you is that the secrets and the trauma have turned into addictions that nobody even knows but guess what it left you stan [Applause] you know the crazy thing about it it may not be an addiction but all of us have idols see and some of you think like i thought idols were back in the old school days no no idols when you look at the bible or anything that exalts itself above god some of you your family is your idol take a picture of our family your relationship is your idol take a picture of our our relationship our house is an idol come on take a picture of us in front of our new house look at us our success is an idol uh oh we just made number one number one in the world we're the one who did it though your ones up another one yeah yeah whatever you make bigger than god has become your idol and the crazy thing about idols is i don't stain you yeah it was just that one time i thought my degrees would make me better and star i started valuing education over my existence i lost relationships because i'mma get these degrees and i'm gonna make this money and i'm gonna do this and i'm not saying any of that's bad but did it become an idol did it take god's place in your life the truth of the matter is it left you stained and i don't know who i'm talking to today because it could have been the secrets the trauma the addictions the idols but it's on you and this is the saddest part about it because none of us asked to be here none of us asked to be here when our mother and father whether it was um they had love or was a one-night stand or it was some type of uh very horrific situation we didn't ask to be here and what ends up happening when you don't ask to be here and you're learning from other people with stains and they tried to do the best that they could with what they had but they didn't have much anyway [Applause] then we end up getting stained not just by the things that have we've already talked about but we get stained by neglect why won't you dare dad why didn't you why didn't you come you didn't you didn't know i needed you and it it might be slow interactions but my coach was supposed to look out for me and then you molested me i thought you were going to take care of me you hugged me the same way when we won the game and now you hug me and abuse me and take advantage of me why did you neglect me pastor you saw how i was in the world and i told you i was gonna follow you yeah talk about it and then all you wanted was my money you wanted to use me to make your ministry big you wanted to you just wanted to volunteer on your team you neglected me now i'm done with church i'm done with my dad i'm done with god after you i don't want anything to do stop coming towards me i'm sick of this because you should have been there and you should have done what their dad did for them and their pastor did for them and their leader did for them and now i'm walking away from you i don't want to talk to you anymore you can go to your space but now i'm left with the stains of neglect and as i'm talking to y'all right now you might have buried these thoughts so far down on the inside of you that you haven't even thought about them in years but what i'm showing you is a physical picture of what your soul looks like your mind will and emotions have been stained when we got to this earth there was something that was here that messed us up and we didn't even ask for it the biggest stain of them all the one you could sum it up in is sin see when sin entered the world in genesis it was the thing that would stain us forever don't eat from the tree adam and eve but maybe what god has for me is not as good as what culture has for me maybe i can do it that way instead of his way and the thing about sin is it comes out in every form yeah it comes out in every form it comes out in my career it comes out in in in my relationship it comes out sin violates you yeah yeah what sin does it tells you to spread them what sin does is it pats you down sin comes to rob you of everything god came to give you see what sin does is it reminds you of your faults and your pain and it keeps you in a spot of vulnerability and it promises you everything that it'll never be able to give you and the world is suffering from being stained by sin [Music] no matter what we do we dapp it up with sin and what happens when we dap it up with sin give me the other one now i'm so used to it i start putting it on myself i start thinking this is the way to live my life and now i'm encouraging other people hey bro come get stained with me bro it's only one night it's your birthday yo oh my gosh you just got a promotion let's go get stained together let's netflix and stain let's have children out of our brokenness and stain them and this is the plight of humanity we have been say it with me stand i don't know what your stains are today i'm not coming to judge you because this is an actual representation of me on the inside the pastor pastor mike no no this is me the only reason i got up in here and let them touch all on me is because this is what sin did to my life i don't know why i saw that when i was five years old spending the night at their house but it stained me and led to me dealing with the addiction of pornography it it caused me trauma it was a secret i kept from my parents and it caused me trauma and it became an addiction that followed me into my marriage and it became an idol and it was something that made me neglect the people that i love [Music] i am stained and for everybody that thinks that you're outside of this realm and you don't see yourself up here be careful that you think somehow you've you've earned this purity position when you were born into this world all of us god everybody say it with me stan can you write this point down sin stained humanity romans 5 12 says and when adam sinned sin entered the whole world and adam's sin brought death so death spread to everyone including you for everyone's sin the thing about sin is it has affected influence touched and stained all of us but the truth and the good news that i have for you today is that if you recognize and you are um um one of those who will be willing to admit that you're stained i i gotta go with this because somebody is still sitting there self-righteous look at romans 3 23 it says for all have sinned or all have been stained and fallen short of the glory of god so god now a perfect god sees his children since adam gets stained and he says i can't leave him like that i got to do something so what i'm gonna do is i'm going to send something to clean them up what god did is god sent sanitizer and his name is jesus if i was in the middle of a pandemic y'all know sanitizers businesses have skyrocketed i'm about to start a new brand of sanitizer called jesus it's the greatest sanitizer in history it's the only one that was poured out one time and would be able to clean the sins and the stains of men forever i'm getting happy right now every sin that you would make that you have make and that you will ever make god sent a sanitizer and his name is above every name his name is jesus somebody's like sanitizer bob let me tell you what sanitizer means a sanitizer is a cleaner that alters something regarded as less acceptable so as to make it more acceptable so when i came into this world and sin got all on me god said i'm sending jesus because what's not acceptable is this sin but if they ever get touched changed and transformed by the sanitizer jesus it now gives them the ability to come back in relationship with me and that's all he wants for you and me and some of you are saying i hear you but you don't know how dirty i am pastor mike but you don't know what i've done and how far these stains go back i don't but god does and the bible tells us before the foundations of the earth he made this plan so that you and i could be clean and today for everybody who has woke up this morning and tried to cover your stains and you're going to go to work tomorrow and you're going to try to cover your stains and you were raising kids with stains all over you and you were like how can i keep going like this i'm telling you you can't and then i'm begging you to understand that you don't have to because when god put the plan of salvation in play he said i'm not just going to send a sanitizer i'm going to clean them all the way up look at second corinthians 5 21 for god made christ who never sinned to be the offering for our sin so that we could be made right or made clean with god through christ can i give you the passage remix can i give you the mlt version the michael living translation for god made christ who had never been stained he made him take on everybody's stain so that we could be made clean through jesus christ let me show it to you very plainly um just like my uh shirt that was white i have a white shirt that i i want the team to bring out just bring it to me real quick and and what what what i want you to do is picture your life completely clear and clean and then i want you to picture yourself coming into this world and then i want you to picture what you look like after sin touches your life i'm going to help you understand this right now very quickly when when i when i found my stains sin came in and it jacked me up and this is what my life looked like what your life looks like yep a little more a little more yeah a little more a little more and what ends up happening is many of us run to religion and we want to be cleaned up by religion but all religion does is make everything dirty so i went to the church and they were supposed to help me and what was a few spots on me became my identity [Music] but then god said no no no no no i'm not just going to let them stay like this because what we want to do is get hurt and then we want to get hung back up forget it i'm just gonna go and get self-help and i'm gonna read all the books and i'm gonna manifest everything and i'm gonna light my candles and i'm gonna i'm gonna smoke my herbs and i'm gonna find peace and i'm gonna do all of this other stuff and it's cool because i understand you were jacked up and then you try something else and you try to get in a place you're gonna try a relationship to clean you up maybe if i have some kids and take cute maternity pictures maybe and now you can't even recognize who i used to be but god said that ain't gonna clean you up that's why i had to send the sanitizer jesus and some of y'all like uh that looks the same that's what everybody thought when he died [Applause] see back in the day crucifixion was a regular occurrence to kill people they would scourge people they would hang them on a cross and they would die it looked regular but what they did not understand is that jesus wasn't a regular man that he came here and he lived for 33 years a regular life just like me and you but he had the power of god residing on the inside of him [Music] and when they thought it was a finish all they did was give a platform for jesus to prove that he was god hear what happened at the cross jesus took every one of our stains and he said this is the thing that i can do i can take the very thing that hurts you when you were a kid i can take the very thing that happened to you illegitimately i can take the same thing that the devil tried to use to take you out and i can use it this is why we celebrate the resurrection as a testimony of me making something new oh you see the colors changing this is called transformation the reason why our church is called transformation church is because this is a sign of what god is about to do in your life and he looks at all the dirt that you caused and he says it's not enough that you just get clean but i want to take and i want to pour it out on your family i want to take and i want to pour it out and your co-workers and i want oh i feel the presence of god i want to clean everything that has been damaged i'm telling you today with everything in me if you has b if you have been stained jesus has come to clean your life up you're not too far you're not too broken you're not too jacked up you haven't done enough you are the only one that jesus went to the cross for the bible tells us that he would leave 99 99 just for the one and this is the truth of the resurrection it wasn't for them it was for you [Music] at the cross at the tomb and when the tomb was rolled away what jesus did is he took all of my stains and he took and traded me the brokenness that i would have oh pastor mike i still see a little bit on your shirt that's my testimony [Applause] see my garment is clean but i never forget where i came from see the only way that i can be excited today is i remember how jacked up i was so this part i left there to make sure i would never forget that i once was broken lost hurting addicted controlled but through the blood of jesus he set me free the one thing that i need you to know is what happened at resurrection is jesus stole our stains he stole him the bible tells us that he defeated death hell and the grave he ripped everything that we would be considered guilty for and he says i'll take it when i think about christ being on the cross going to the tomb nobody talks about how long saturday was they call it a good friday it wasn't good for him and then there's a dark saturday the disciples had no guarantee he was coming back the same way you think that your situation is hopeless you got to understand that jesus has resurrection power when they looked for him he was gone he had traded the stains of humanity and took him on so that you could walk in freedom so my question is for you today why are you still living in shame why are you still living in pain can i say it to you very very clearly why do you keep reclaiming the stains why do you keep going and romanticizing the years that stained you if i was 20 again if i was in college again if i could do the marriage over again why would you keep reclaiming the stains that he already paid for and today i'm asking you to exchange your stains jesus has already done his part according to the scriptures all you have to do is receive what jesus has already done for you that's it that's the good news i have for you how you looking right now the stains that are all over you and making you uncomfortable jesus says exchange me hey hey hey what better day than right now to trade me second corinthians 5 17 says it like this this means that anyone who be in christ they have become a new person the old has passed away behold look tala i have become brand new and this is the truth that i found out church i feel this the truth is that the same spirit that raised christ from the dead is the same spirit that will enable you to live his plan was not just to get you from a place of being stained to clean he said i don't want you to be in that place no more so he took the pain so you could be listen to this sustained god is a redeemer so he takes whatever you had and he adds his super to your natural and he took your stain cleansed you turned it into your testimony and it is the thing that will sustain you how is pastor mike up here telling you because revelation says we overcome him by the blood of the lamb that's the work he did at the cross the blood of the lamb and the words of my own stings what i was a hoe i did do it i was addicted to pornography i was a bad person and god says that's all i needed was somebody to accept that they don't got to wear those clothes no more and then not to forget the story because what's going to sustain you is that you take the stain submit it to him and now god will sustain you it reminds me of my bro will come up here bro will's on staff here [Music] probably um how many years ago was it six years ago six years ago this man was in jail addicted to all kinds he was stained today he leads our insur internship program [Music] the one thing i love about will is he he he didn't forget that it was jesus and only jesus [Music] who took his stains and turned it into something that could sustain other people he's teaching people who want to lead and want to do he was in jail six years ago what i'm telling you is you're not too far what i'm telling you is god does not care he is no respecter of person he doesn't care what stained you before today god wants to sustain you our worship team [Music] i feel the presence of god right now he's wrapping his loving arms around people right now our worship team um we wrote a song [Music] that talks about what god wants to do for you and for the next few moments we're going to play this home and in your home in your car if you're watching this on rebroadcast i don't care where you are who you are or when you're watching this i believe this is a defined moment for your life your future and the generations to come and i want god to reveal to you the stains that you're gonna exchange today not tomorrow don't
