financial freedom blessings in business because they are committed to excellence for god's kingdom god says you've been working serving his house now he's going to establish your house [Music] one of the men of god just texted me he said pastor you didn't know but you just sold into back to back joshuas the gentleman with the clothing shoes and the 13 year old boy the 13 year old young man both of them were named joshua joshua is where we get yeshua the lord saves but watch this here's the here's the profound lesson of joshua's life he was the servant of moses he had no ambition other than to serve and because his commitment was to serve the man of god god saw the posture of his heart and elevated the servant to the leader of the nation let me help you to understand that if you want to progress in god's kingdom economy the it is not ambition that will get you there it is not your talent that will get you there it is a posture of service and a heart to sow and if you are faithful in another man's god will give you your own and to the spirit of joshua because that's the spirit that i operate in because i'm still a joshua to pastor joel i've been a joshua to every general in the kingdom there is not one pastor of note in this world that i have not served and god took me around the world so that i can see and then become something i never could have become on my own oh but i sowed and i never coveted the platform of any person any pastor that i sowed into i was faithful i sold my best i preach every message like it's my last everybody say intentional sewing no i need you to say it like you mean it intentional sewing now i tried to get y'all to go to matthew 13 10 minutes ago but y'all don't want to listen you want to worship jesus matthew 13. starting at the 24th verse this is jesus teaching this is what he says another parable jesus put forth to them saying the kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field somebody say so good seed say it again say so good seed it's hard to sow good seed it's hard sometimes to sow good seed because the lord will tell you to sow good seed in the bad people it's easy to sow good seed and the good people are people you agree with but you gotta sow good seed into people before they become what they're called to be because that is when you're most like your heavenly father because he sowed into us when we weren't thinking about him oh my gosh i'll leave it there but while men slept his enemy came and sowed tears among the wheat and went his way freeze while men slept there was a man who sowed good seed in his field he was doing the right thing he sowed the right seed but while men slept his enemy came and sowed tears among the wheat i need you to know when you are sowing into kingdom things kingdom principles kingdom dynamics kingdom objectives you will accumulate enemies there will be people who will set themselves against you they will they will hate you without cause they will dislike you but and here's the thing here's the tricky thing about them they don't look like enemies because they don't present themselves in the daytime they wait till night while men are asleep when you are vulnerable when you have less light less vision when your defenses are down here they come so tears among the wheat and went his way but when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop then the tares also appeared so the servants of the owners came and said to him sir did you not sow good seed in your field how then does it have tares he said to them an enemy has done this the servant said to him do you want us then to go and gather them up but he said no lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them now lord i don't understand this you know they're wrong you know they're wicked you know what they're trying to do to me you know what they tried to do to other people you know you know the posture of their heart why are you doing why are you letting them grow don't worry it all has to grow together i'm about to separate it at harvest time six of y'all caught it one of the elders caught it i'm about to give you the revelation of it in two seconds but he said i don't want you to mess with the tares because it's too close to the wheat and i need the wheat to stay in the ground a little longer to mature let them grow together and here's what he says and at the time of harvest i will say to the reapers first gather together the tears that the enemy sold and bind them in bundles and burn them you're going to still be rooted i'm going to take the thing that was trying to choke you out i'm going to bind it that means it will it will no longer have the ability to harm you or your field or future harvest i'm gonna take it while you watch while you stay rooted i'm taking it putting it in a bundle and i'm gonna burn it but gather the wheat into my safe place into my barn somebody say intentional sewing come here no sir you yes sir you with your heavy camera it's just a seed you're always somewhere with a camera in your hand sowing into me it's just a seed i love and appreciate you no yes yes it is jesus y'all gonna have to forgive me because i gotta be obedient okay so if there's a camera that's on me it has to stay on on me somehow i don't know how you're gonna do it because i'm walking back to these two camera operators come this way okay i'll come that way all right see because they they work hard and they volunteer and i just want them to know i appreciate them both of them it's just a little c love and appreciate you both oh and other people are going to sow into y'all before the service is over aaliyah i sowed into your husband i'mma get to you before the service is over and i got you last week didn't it did i get you last week did i sew into you last week okay let me tell you what i'm doing because we're stepping into a harvest okay they missed it rashad so let me say it again remember what the scripture says the wheat and the tear grow up there he was about to leave i caught him and say turn right around and i mean sit down i mean don't you move he was like this parable says the wheat and tear going to grow together and the time of separation is at harvest that's when i'll make the distinction not in the process of growth but at the time when you are about to be given for consumption people are about to dine on the experiences of your life and you're about to produce because your life is not an appetizer baby your life is a meal you've been through too much for people to snack on you you are a whole steak potatoes salad bread am i talking to anybody that's been through enough that your life could speak who am i talking to that your life is worthy of the respect that comes with the process that your worship costs you something the fact that your hands are up cost you something you've lost things you've lost loved ones you've lost a child you've lost a parent you've lost a spouse you've lost the job you've almost lost your mind and yet here you are somehow with your hands still up giving god praise who am i talking to god is about to bind your enemies burn them in your presence and then set you in front of the world for the world to dine on the experiences of your life your anointing is a whole meal you ain't nothing like a snack you a whole dinner i dare you i dare you to declare i'm a meal i'm a meal oh taste and seed i'm trying to help somebody in here they have underestimated your anointing who am i talking to even your family treats you casual they think because they grew up with you they know you and people because they saw you at a certain moment of your development want to minimize the anointing on your life but the devil is a lie i've been in the field i've been in the heat i've been through the rain i've been through some mess and i'm still planted i'm still rooted because i did not sow myself my savior sowed me into the field and this is my season of harvest no music i need you to give god a praise i need to make some announcements and i need you to write this down if i'm talking to you and i am talking to you i do need you to know this that if you're here today or you're watching online right now you're assigned to this moment you didn't accidentally show up today and i hope that you hear me by the spirit of the lord that you were assigned to be here today because apparently there is something that god wants to get to your family for the next two 300 years mommy i don't know if they understand that god blesses to a thousand generations those who seek him see i'm i'm the i am the product of a grandmother who prayed she never had the things that she prophesied but i am the embodiment i am the manifestation of what she spoke she wrote it in journals when i was a little boy how could she see 40 years into the future 45 years into the future god gave her vision she sold her life she sowed tears she sowed prayers and some of you are springing up as the harvest of prayers from a hundred years ago and what you do today and what you sow today and the praise you give to god today will echo echo echo echo echo echo into the next generations i believe that the seed i sow today will bless my grandkids from my firstborn son and my daughter i said that my grandkids my my son and daughter's grandkids will reap from what i sow in the next 15 minutes and it starts with a praise because everything from my bloodline is going to be saved there will not cease to be a worshiper in the great family line we will all serve the lord anything when my last name is getting into heaven not one of my seed will go to hell [Music] everything in my family line is getting into the kingdom and i bind every devil in hell that would try to hinder the ability of my children grandchildren and great-grandchildren from walking into the fullness of god i've sown too much i've cried too much i prayed too much and it will be what i say because my harvest is connected to my confession pj there's too much at stake you have left lack officially today it is official your warfare is over you've left lack it started last week because i started declaring some things last week and i got people here that are living witnesses that god started doing miracles we got one member that got a whole building downtown no money don't tell me what god won't do people financing entire initiatives don't tell me what god won't do we walked into a campus in atlanta that god breathed on don't tell me what god won't do this is the season you are leaving lack behind and if i were you i would not allow my bank account to trick me into thinking that the word is not happening [Applause] i'm getting ready to be very transparent last week my wife told me in the middle of service that she was sowing a particular seed it was a significant seed and i said cause i'm the head of my house i'm not going to let my wife sow in faith and i'm not so at least equal and i showed her i said is this the mountain you lord told you to do this it's not a tithe week but if he i said let's go what i didn't do i'm being honest i didn't realize that i had bills that come through you know they just gone in there that you know it's automatic with the bill pay situation anybody that's got the bill paid they just go in there they don't even ask they don't take you to dinner they don't kiss you they just go in there and just take it just you know it's just gone it's there one day you're feeling good on friday by monday what the jesus has happened to my account that i didn't even know y'all did transactions on saturday afternoons i don't how can you just take it like that in the middle of the night you just came in there you i sowed what had been earmarked for other things and i found myself in the middle of a week with a negative in front of that account now everything went through but i was sitting in the negative the devil was like see that's what you get you trusted god now look at you i said you're a liar because this account is not the truth this is a moment it's not the truth and my seed went through so i'm good if there's anything negative it can wait as long as my seed went through because if i got seed in the crowd then harvest has to happen i wish i had 17 people in here that understand what i'm about to say i i can have a minus in front of the account because by friday it will be back in the positive but i do not live by bread alone i live by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of god i got leftovers at the house i got a quarter taking cast and i can walk if i have to i need a few people to encourage my soul right through here i feel my help in here oh help me holy ghost i've been believing pastor amber for a particular miracle i need god to do it i need him to do it this week i hope he does it this week i hope he hurries and does it but if he doesn't my posture has not changed you are the great god all of it belongs to you and when it's my season and my turn no devil in hell can stop it nobody can stop what's coming and i'ma keep showing until harvest comes and when i get mine everybody around me is getting theirs because i've proven that if you give it to me i'll give it away i sowed into our security team sowed into some of the leaders and and it was church business and those are receipts that can be reimbursed the lord said do not submit them i want you to sow it ain't no seed when you know you can get it right back i need somebody to run for me on that one god in heaven help me elder buchanan you don't even know that you just ran into millions you you and your your whole family just all five of your kids they just ran into millions your your youngest boy just got a breakthrough i don't even know what this means but that boy is getting ready to be labeled a genius [Music] caleb your your children are going to be a worship band they're they're writing songs that little boy is going to grab a guitar like his dad and y'all are going to write songs that will span generations i want you to know that you left lack i'm looking for the 17 people in here and the 100 online that are between miracles god did something then it got a little low and you're waiting on the next thing i need you to know that this sunday is the bridge i need you to sow a praise right now while you're walking because you're walking from one miracle into the next miracle but what you do right now is the bridge to your next thing so i ask you right now in faith i need you to walk in praise i need you to shout and praise take about seven steps and thank the lord that everything in your life has been accounted for that there is nothing missing nothing lacking i need you to just take a walk and if your family doesn't have faith you walk for the whole family and i need you to praise while you do it [Music] i need you to keep worshiping something is breaking to my niece simone mcquity healing to

hill and i receive pastor demarcus from your hand and thank you man of god and i'm old hallelujah jesus tell somebody i just stepped into a new season no no no you you're not saying it pastor robert i i i just hey sweet girl love you so much i love you come here sweet girl come here man take all that that's for you okay i love you here take this too i want my babies to know that when they sow god sees it i need you to declare three things out of your mouth right now say i'm sowing i'm showing i'm growing i need you to say it again put a smile in your mask and i want you to say i'm sowing i'm showing i'm growing i need you to get excited about this because this is for he gives seed to the sower oh my god if i'm in a if i'm in a moment where the ground is good i don't need a crop i need a seed oh help me god he gives seed to the so i'm sowing the only way you can sow is if you have seed but he only gives seed to the sower which means if you really want to have increase then you got to be generous now because the only way you get more is by giving away what you have and i'm not talking money baby i'm talking your intellectual property i'm talking about the posture of your heart i'm talking about the machinations of your mind i'm talking about your intellectual pursuits i'm stepping into a new season and i need somebody to hear me the success of the season you're stepping into is directly connected to the soil you're planted in courtney you and and um where'd she go lily y'all said something to me a couple weeks ago and you said god has done remarkable things in your businesses since you've been planted here is that what you said i just want to make sure is there anybody else that can say that god has done significant and remarkable things since you've been planted here houses from the ground up some of you businesses closed on houses ministry moments opportunities open doors let me tell you why i need you to look down it's because of the soil you're planted in i need you to just i need i don't know how to do i need you to just try to act like you dig in your feet in the ground i need you to just oh just like that look like the twist the reason i want you to dig deep i don't want you to go anywhere see the enemy wants you to get out of the soil that's actually producing the harvest for you and your family oh my god you still over there at that church yes and i'm not going anywhere i'm exactly where i'm supposed to be in fact i'm gonna dig deeper you don't you do it because i'll stand right on a pew with you if if you got the guts to be a pew stander i dare you to stand on a pew if you can do it safely now if you fall it's on you and i mean don't sue me but if you got the guts to stand on a pew i need you to say i am a tree planted by the rivers of water i'm in good ground i'm in the soil i'm not moving i cannot be moved i'm not here out of emotion i'm here out of obedience stay on the pew for a second while i finish this prophetic declaration oh my god the success of the season you're in is directly connected to the soil you're planted in relentless church is good ground oh yes it is because the heart of the pastors is pure oh yes it is i'm gonna preach this gospel until i die this is not a witchcraft house we don't manipulate people here if you want to stay welcome if you want to leave we love you i'm not i don't have nothing to say but i guarantee you this the ones that have stayed the ones that have sold the ones that have been pruned are blessed we're walking in maturity we're walking in authority we're walking in abundance and baby i look over my shoulders and i got goodness and mercy following me every single day because i am in the right soil now very safely come down off of there i need to declare this too the soil that you are sowing in is also the soil you'll be reaping from put this in the chat feed say it out loud and six of y'all are gonna run your miracle is in the house god said stop looking for people that are outside he said your miracle is in the house it's in the room it's on the chat feed whatever you're looking for god's got it in oh lord help me it's in here did you hear what i said god has the answer to your prayer in here it might be in a person or it might be in the atmosphere but whatever it is you don't have to go looking for it it's looking for you i'm sowing i'm showing and i'm growing i'm walking in a level of authority and maturity in the spirit that i've never walked in before things that used to bother me don't bother me now used to get me off my game but now i realize you were sown in the middle of the night to get me out of position you look like wheat you're a tare and i don't even have to do anything to you because when i study the rest of the scripture jesus broke it down for the disciples he said the sower is the son of man the harvest the field is the world and the reapers are the angels he said and the wheat are the sons of the kingdom and the tares are the sons of the enemy and the angels are going to come and gather up the sons of the enemy ah because it takes discernment to know who's who in this season [Music] they look like wheat but they're not weak you sing like wheat but you're not weak you're a tear very talented but you're a tear you're a talented tear you're a gifted tear great communicator care educated tear because wheat has the oil on it i'm in a moment where i'm sewing and i'm showing and i'm showing off growing do you understand that you're in a house where miracles happen every week no some of y'all don't hear me i don't know if you understand but there are seven people in here getting ready to get new cars and you need them oh okay so there's one she's shouting it there he goes okay it's always good to know where the lord is about to do it and you need a seven seater for the baby the baby's gone okay i see you running man of god it's happening and just to encourage you charles hall come here charles oh i'm gonna let y'all go in a minute but this is a service that that will change your life don't go anywhere charles can you tell them about the power of sowing and reaping so 2011 i gave my car away my only car it was a really nice car and i believe the lord told me to do it and now i'm walking in chicago in the winter i'm walking to church catching rides to church and catching rides to work so i feel like i i miss god and a year later pastor john was at this conference i was hosting him at and during his message he said charles stand up the lord told me to give you a truck you don't have to pay for it i'm going to fly you out and he did such as i am saying i wasn't verbose in my communication i didn't tell anybody no one knew pastor john did not knew and he still to this day didn't know that's the exact truck that i was asking the lord for it down to the color god is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think but wait wait what are we asking for and what are we thinking about if god is asking you to do something that's crazy and i'm not asking you to give your car away but i'm telling you that god sees that seed even if people say man you're crazy what are you thinking who do you think you got who do you think you are you miss god i'm telling you you didn't miss him because the bible says the word of the generous gets larger and larger i sold the car and god gave me a truck i need you to give god a 30 second praise break he sold a car and the harvest was a truck i didn't know what you just said that that was the car you were believing for down to the colors which means when i got the truck two years prior it wasn't for me he had you in mind when i got the truck i thought i wanted there are people that got something that they thought they wanted but it's yours [Music] now let me take this story a little further you want to see the rest i sold a truck that i loved that was paid off that i wanted one year later for you so that's 2012. two years later for me a year and a half later a man comes up to me at lakewood church he says pastor lord told me to sow a vehicle into you i was like well man praise god thank you so much he said i'm gonna bring it to your house i said amen i want you to see what he sowed into me that's a bentley continental gtc so for all the people who hate on me when you see me driving it was a gift haters and what you don't know is it should be a gmc yukon but i sold a truck [Music] and what david the man's name is david emo nedier what he did not know is that was the car of my dreams that i told no one because sometimes church people like look at you what are you greedy you what are you you're you one of them name it claim it no i'm just a man that likes cars and you're allowed to dream you're allowed to dream you're allowed to dream you're allowed to believe your father owns everything as long as you don't worship it and treat people wrong to get it i said i would love to have a bentley continental gtc silver with tan interior that's exactly what he sowed into me paid off somebody say paid off now i this is the first time i said the man of god's name since this happened and i text him and he just texts me back because i said i believe he said the lord told me to sow into you he said wherever that man goes follow him and and he was successful in business then he just texted me says since i sold that he said i have made a million dollars in a day oh no no he just texts me so you think i'm playing i'm gonna just read what he said and somebody needs to shout because if it's happening uh-huh yeah he said just this past friday i had a 2.3 million dollar day he sowed into good ground and is still producing a harvest now i don't know who this is for but i know this is good ground i've sown into this house and this is i bind the devil that would make anyone think this is about getting something from you this is about getting something to you this is a real moment watch this the entire point of the scripture in matthew was not about getting things because jesus sowed himself i have not tried to get anything from me most of y'all don't know when i said yes to this assignment i left my dream home and we stayed in an airbnb in the crown plaza hotel for three months we stayed in two rooms in the crown plaza because i believe god sent me here buried underground everybody else living in their houses and i'm sitting in a hotel god did i hear you you sowing your car and walking for a year god did i hear you yes you heard him your harvest doesn't come the same day you so i just want to talk to the people that sowed a yes but now you're walking in and not yet i need you to know that you're going from yes to not yet to suddenly oh my god i need 100 people to declare suddenly has come put it in the chat feed i need you to get it in your spirit i need somebody to take off running suddenly has come it has come suddenly is running to your house suddenly is overtaking your accounts suddenly is showing up in your business suddenly unbelievable thank you sasha i got a text in real time from my wife's assistant she said i'm sewing back into you and pastor av and somehow she found our cash app i'm not telling y'all nothing that's that's just something she did thank you one of my elders just texts elder coleman elder coleman said my son sold in to you and pastor av during the offering today he did it through the drop down thank you anthony wherever you are young man and and and i've learned a principle because my mama taught me this when god is moving in moments like this and you're led to do it you sow you sow because i want what god is doing in the house to be on my life but i have also sown into the men and women of god and and and it's out of obedience you do it when the lord tells you to i'ma leave that right there let me finish this because i need to i need to get this word to you oh god i bless you the wheat and the weeds grow together but i need you to stay out of the weeds the wheat and the tear the tears are weak tell somebody stay out of the weeds don't let these people bother you stay out of the ways let them talk about you let them let them giggle and laugh god's about to bind them up throw them in the fire while you get harvested to be a meal oh lord jesus help me holy ghost but you stay out of the weeds you stay out of the gossip you stay out of the drama you stay away from the backbiting stay away from all of that stuff stay away from the craziness stay away from it that's them that's not you don't let their foolishness taint your character keep your heart pure did you hear what i said god is and you're not gonna have to do it god is going to have angels separate y'all you're about to have an angelic visitation you can wait you know wheat when the wind blows looks like it's waving i need you to wave bye bye to your enemies bye bye oh thank you you taught me some valuable lessons you look just like wheat but you weren't weak you were in my presence but you never had my heart bye-bye bless you take care you plotted and planned it didn't work out you can do whatever you want to try but it didn't stop me i'm still planted take care bye bye take care tare take care tear i double dog tear you [Music] i need somebody to give the lord a wave offering i'm in the right soil i'm in the right season i'm with the right people i got the right leaders with the right heart i got the right worshipers yes god wave bye bye to the ones that tried to break you wave bye bye to the things that tried to choke out your hopes choke your joy choke your dreams bye bye you be blessed because i'm still planted and i'm still producing this is the power of god everyone's standing everyone's standing my god mommy one of the elders just said the lord laid on him and his wife to sow into you he left church to go to the atm and he's coming back to sow into you so you stay right here and what people don't know i believe what that elder is doing elder buchanan what he's doing is he is the physical tangible beginning of a harvest in your life because at 78 years young there are things even though you've been walking with him there are things in god you haven't seen and you told me today you said i've never seen this before neither have i but i want you to know that what this is is a return it's your harvest you sowed your life into raising me now god has given me authority to pastor not a church but a region and reach a nation excuse me nations your faithfulness to raise one kernel of wheat you got one son you sowed me into the kingdom and now look at the turn around look at the fruit while you are alive you will see the goodness of the lord in the land of the living and so now the elders coming to sew something into you and he's just the first of many but you sowed your life and i have decided to sow my life i don't just sow an offering i sow my life and what i love about our church and i'm bragging on our church right now i said this before and i still believe it's true me and my wife are the most we are the most generous givers in our church and the reason why that matters to me is because there are other churches that might bring in more whatever but there's no church in america or in the world that has more consistent committed generous people across the board than relentless church nowhere because we all are giving from our heart and giving from our substance and god honors that that's why we've been able to pay every bill in spite of what y'all heard that's why we still here in our church and this is just one of our facilities i need somebody to scream it and scream at the top of your lungs god did it god did it i need you to say it seven times i need you to say it like you mean look at somebody say god did it and i need you to say it now not just for what he did in the church but now i need you to say it prophetically about what he's about to release in your life i need you to say god did it i need you to say whatever it is you're believing for god did it god did it do you hear what i said i said god did it mama put your mask on put it on now i'm not playing okay good you got your mask on god did it somebody say god did it vaccine and all but put that mask on she's 78 come on jesus listen to me something something is hitting the atmosphere [Music] can i go a little further can i go a little further man of god can i go to the mighty men of god in this room and to the men of god online you're about to step into a a position of power an authority in favor that as you speak it you will see it happen in real time the reason why our church is healthy is because we got mighty men of god in here oh yes did you hear what i said we we raise up mighty men of god because there are too many churches that are feminized because they don't want strong men because the pastor wants to be the one to be worshipped he wants to be the one that's wanted but i am a pastor that raises up mighty men i raise up strong husbands and fathers and leaders i raise up mighty men that ain't scared of nothing i know my english is bad but i declare there's another anointing coming on the men of relentless oh help me we're getting ready to step into a season of valor we're getting ready to step into a season of power we're getting ready to step into a season of authority we're getting ready to step into a season of declarative anointing that as we speak demons have to back up we're getting ready to take territory we're gonna be healthy anointed discerning filled with power and our families will be blessed our children will be blessed our wives will be blessed our spouses will be our houses will be blessed this community will be blessed because we raise up mighty men we raise up greatness and we don't compromise the word for any reason the gospel is right the bible is still true jesus is the only way to the father he is the full payment for our sins he is the only begotten of the dead he is the firstborn of all creation jesus was born of a virgin named mary jesus is the one he is the way the truth and the life no one comes to the father except through him repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand and i'm closing now with this here help me jesus oh lord do me a favor lift a hand at least one the musicians too you don't have to play i don't want you to play i want you to lift your hands oh jesus lord here we are we are relentless we are the church we sow ourselves into your work i've committed my entire life to the gospel and all i want is for you to get the glory save souls heal bodies change lives lord would you ratify this word today by doing unprecedented things in the lives of your people who call themselves family of relentless will you do things this week that our ears will tingle i'm praying for unprecedented healing my niece that i just prayed for she just texted and said uncle john i so myself i'm sowing my gifts and my talents into the house i'm serving i'm going to help she didn't even live here yet that was the key to this message not about the accumulation of things but jesus sowed himself into these men for three years because the harvest was you do you understand that jesus is never recorded giving an offering because he was the offering when you study the scripture it says when you make your soul an offering for sin he was the offering he sold himself he invested anybody in the stock market you know some days the stocks are up sometimes they're down he invested for three years on the day that he needed them the most they bottomed out they took off and ran left him and and he didn't see a return on his investment until after he died for unless a kernel of wheat falls into the ground and dies it cannot produce a harvest he sold himself and when he rose you saw the power of god on those apostles and he worked unusual miracles these men were so on fire for god they were willing to die horrific deaths to give him glory yeah you can behead me oh you're gonna crucify me just don't do it right side up i don't deserve to die like my savior crucify me upside down or you gonna beat me for the gospel i rejoice i'm i'm counted worthy to receive punishment for preaching the gospel let me tell you something candy preachers will always be popular because they tell people what they want to hear not the truth of what it is i know what it's like to serve candy we serve in meat and potatoes over here i don't want to be popular i want to be obedient holiness is still right listen to me god is calling our church higher we graduated today jesus sowed himself and now i say this because i have been instructed to say it there are people that are watching online and some that are here who are like me that are electronic givers and it's 111 and i just feel like for somebody he's asked you to sow something beyond what you've already done you need to do that you need to do whatever it is he's asking you to do do it now and if it's if it's an actual seed and you're in the house and you want to bring that to the altar do that too but for our electronic givers and those online this is a sacred moment i said it two weeks ago that you're one seed away one seed away some of you have already sown it because you heard god but it's a couple of y'all that's funny y'all be trying to play games with god like well god if he says it then i'll know it's you here's the other thing for the few of y'all that always feel like you never have enough you have to sow your way out of that how you you've been you've been alive that long and you still struggling you've been in church that long you still struggling with whether or not to trust god with your finances grow up do what he told you and watch the harvest that comes i don't know how he's gonna do it that ain't your business your business is obedience hands up father seal this word seal it in the lives of your people thank you for the heart of relentless church and i ask that before we leave we find someone in here that we speak life to before we go preferably someone that does not look like us i'm grateful for the multicultural expression of worship i pray that you will send more white people i'm speaking it because i want to break the back of racism in the church i'm going to say it again black people always go to churches where there are white pastors it's just a part of the mindset but it's very hard lord in our country with all that's going on for white people to feel safe in places that are predominantly black and i'm praying that you break that spirit and that you will bring my white brothers and sisters my hispanic brothers and sisters that our church would reflect what the kingdom of god looks like that we lay down our politics and pick up the cross and that we treat each other with the level of respect and dignity that every human being deserves because that's what the cross did it made us equal all the praise and glory goes to you in jesus name amen if you're here you never gave your life to jesus and we're going together don't leave this is not the day to leave early you don't have nothing to do that three minutes can't wait on nothing if you're here you never gave your life to jesus you need to do that today if you're trying to figure out whether or not you want to be a part of the family of relentless you know the answer you need to do that today we're going to pray this prayer together everybody who has the ability to speak let's pray this together right now lord jesus it's me i confess with my mouth and believe in my heart that jesus is lord thank you for the blood that was shed for me i receive the free gift of salvation not through my works but the finished work of the cross the blood is enough to pay for all my sins now holy spirit come live inside and teach me how to be more like jesus each and every day i thank you you are my savior and my lord in your name jesus i pray amen if you prayed that prayer for the first time you just got saved you just got saved you just got saved and if you're rededicating your life or you're becoming a member i need you to do me a favor in here and online i need you to text either the word saved or the word member to the number on the screen somebody had to get saved today lord i need a harvest of souls today somebody needs to get shown up saved today our church will never be the same after today we graduated i want you to know i love you i'm grateful to god for you thank you pastor demarcus
