Season Shift | Vlad Savchuk

I have a prophetic message I want to share with you this evening I I I believe in note taking so I want you to pull out your phone we're going to go into school we're going to learn few things yes we're going to shout but I believe God wants to change our thinking not just impress our emotions amen because it's not when you feelings change it's when your thoughts change that your life changes and the word that I want to share and release into your life is that your season has changed I believe it's not going to be a sermon but I believe it's going to be a message and it's going to be a prophetic message in somebody's life it's also going to be a declaration and God tonight wants to shift somebody's season can I get an amen the Bible says from the beginning in Genesis that life is made out of Seasons when God created us he made winter summer unless you in Los Angeles or San Diego but the rest of us have seasons the rest of us have snow we have spring and we have summer and we have the fall life is made out of seasons and there are seasons of Good Times there are seasons of challenges there are seasons of easy times and there are season life is just made out of Seasons anytime your Seasons shift you get allergies why because when Seasons shift most people don't know how to adjust to the season that they're stepped into they've been praying all the life for the seasons to shift and when the season shifts they start getting a running nose they start complaining they say why is this happening to me the devil is attacking me where sometimes it's not the devil attacking you sometimes it's God brought you into something new that you've been praying for and you don't know how to dress accordingly speak accordingly act accordingly and I believe that tonight God wants to not only equip but he wants to shift something in somebody's life because your season is Shifting and somebody say Amen Joseph in the Bible went through four seasons in his life he and those seasons were represented by four types of garments his daddy gave him a colorful garment That season quickly changed when somebody took that away from him and then the Bible says that porar put a slave garment on him but that season changed when the life got worse not got better because Piper's wife snapped that Garden from him and then the Bible says he goes to jail and then the warden put a g garment on him because that's a bad season in his life but even in that season the Bible says the Lord was with Joseph and that season got shifted because the Bible says that Pharaoh put a garment on him that nobody else ever took away from him no Piper's wife no brothers that were jealous and that garment stayed on him and I just want to release a word into somebody's life that your seasons are about to change maybe people have stolen your garment they've stolen your job they've stolen your peace but there is a God in heaven who is watching over everything he controls the times he controls the seasons and if he allowed it that means he has a purpose for it that means he's preparing you for something that is about to happen in your life the story that I want to share with you today will come from the story of Joshua stepping into his season and I want to share with you just five moves that have to happen five moves moves that has to happen or will happen or are happening in your life that you need to adjust to if you're taking notes write this down you have to move number one from stress to strength from stress to strength Joshua 1:9 have I not commanded you be strong and of good courage do not be afraid nor be dismayed for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go why did I say stress because people who study stress they say this the spike in your stress is always connected to a life change anytime things change you get fired get married have kids kids move out move to a new season step in into a new role anytime your life changes your stress spikes that's what psychology teaches us and that is true that's why when seasons change some of us develop allergies we just don't know how to react you have to look at Joshua life and Joshua is following one I would have never wanted to step in into Moses's shoes if Moses would have been my pastor and Moses died and they elected me as a pastor I would have asked God to take me to Heaven how do you follow a guy who face times with God the Bible says he spoke to God face to face how do you follow a guy who has a stick that split Seas how do you follow a guy who can go and be on the mountain 40 days without eating and drinking I've done the not eating part but not the drinking one that's not possible how do you follow a guy that God gives him a tablet before even Steve Job creates Apple how do you follow a guy that God with his finger writes on his tablet how do you follow a guy that shakes the nations with the presence and the power of God God educated in the highest universities of Egypt trained in the desert how do you follow a guy who also fell and though he was anointed yet displeased God and fell that God said you can't go further and instead find some kind of a person on the side Joshua whose job was he was just running errands for Moses and said now where Moses failed I want you to succeed in now that's exciting if you're a teenager and you got crazy dreams but if you're an adult and you know what this means that scares you no wonder book of Joshua chapter 1 God says Don't Be Afraid Don't Be Afraid Don't Be Afraid Don't Be Afraid don't Joshua make sure you don't be afraid Don't Be Afraid why because New Seasons expose new insecurities New Seasons bring to surface new anxieties New Seasons bring to surface new fears you didn't even know you had why because God will always take you to a place that you are not prepared you don't feel equipped for and you will feel like the challenges and the hardships are bigger than you can handle can I just take a moment and destroy that myth that God will never give you what you cannot handle God will never give you what he cannot handle can I just the Bible says he will not let you be tempted but the scripture never says he will never let you have a challenge that you can handle if he will only let you have what you can handle his grace wouldn't be necessary his power wouldn't be necessary you will not need to pray you will not need to fast you will not need to depend on the body of Christ because you can handle it yourself whatever God has brought brought you into you don't have what it takes you have what he takes you don't have what it takes God never said to Joshua in Joshua 1 you have what it takes God doesn't lie cuz you don't have what it takes so for those who like I'm not enough exactly you are not enough and don't believe in some kind of a new age Guru who will give you a mantra I am enough I am enough I am enough I am enough if you repeat that enough you will believe that you are enough no you are not enough his grace is his strength is that's why God says I will be with you and that is going to be enough I will add my super to your natural and that's going to be enough new season will bring a stress that you've never met before stress is simply a sign that demands placed on you are higher than your strength that's all that is it means your demands increased God entrusted you with something more than you had before that's all stress is stress is not bad it's a sign you stepped into something you didn't have before and that's why the Bible says those who wait upon the Lord the Bible doesn't say he removes their stress because if God removes the stress he'll have to pull you back into your old season God doesn't remove the stress he increases the strength to meet the challenge of the new season come on somebody I when I was younger I used to pray God remove the stress but then I realize he'll have to make me unemployed if he removes the stress he will also have to remove my marriage he will have to remove my uncle he will have to remove my church my staff he will of to have to remove my calling God has to remove everything if he removes stress why because it's the demands on my life on your life responsibilities challenges pressures that create stress stress is good the problem is your strength is small why because your strength is for the previous season that is not enough in this one why would God send me to a season that is too hard for me because the Bible says the Lord said to Joshua Moses died he said now I want you to step into those shoes the expectation is high insecurities are rising up people are looking to Joshua they're like so Joshua what did God say Joshua say he doesn't speak to me like so what are we going to do how are we going to attack I don't know and the pressure the expectation how do you follow a guy who is the greatest leader that probably the world has seen up to that point the most powerful man of God how do you follow a guy who also fell how do you deal with all of that the Bible says and the Lord said to Joshua don't be afraid I Am with You meaning I'm supplying the strength I'm not reducing the stress I'm increasing the strength stop asking God to reduce the stress ask God to increase the strength when David lost everyone the Bible says he came back and his City was destroyed wives were taken that everything was burned down the scripture does not say that David said Lord remove the stress the scripture says David strengthened himself in the Lord his God he knew the stress is simply a sign that something changed in my life and I can't remove the stress I just got to ask God to increase the strength that I can tackle whatever that has come in my way Amen in the new season move from stress to God's strength don't run from stress run to strength because in strength you will overcome every stress every burden and you will be able to run and not get weary walk and not get tired meaning God says you'll be able to fulfill your responsib ability you'll be able to love your family you will be able to raise your family you'll be able to do your business you'll be able to do your ministry under certain level of stress those of you who want to live and Thrive and absolutely have no stress and no responsibilities you are living in a virtual world the real world on the side of Eternity unless you do mushrooms or some kind of drugs in real world Jesus says there is tribulation there are hardships and Jesus didn't say pray that I remove them he says he he said this he says be of good good cheer I have overcome he didn't say I avoided I overcame stop running from the things that hold a key to your Victory come on somebody number two in the new season we must move from Mana to milk and honey Joshua 5:12 then the Mana seized on that day after they had eaten the produce of the land and the children of Israel no longer had Mana but they ate the food of the land of Canaan that year God will take you from Mana to milk and honey now what is mana mana is when God meets your needs but it's his Blessing it's a an answer from God Mana was a miracle but it was never God's promise as incredible and Supernatural Mana was God never promised Mana to Abraham and Isaac what was the common promise milk and honey how do you get Mana doing nothing how do you get milk and honey you have to have a cow and beehives when you live your life on Mana you get used to God providing for your needs but that's never God's perfect will that is God's blessing 100% should you be grateful for Mana 100% should you give a testimony that God provided for Mana yes but never sacrifice the dream for the sake of what meets the needs today even though what meets the needs today is God who brings Mana to an end he the Bible says stopped Mana why because they entered a land where they started to eat from the produce of the land so they used to eat of the Heaven's blessing now they eat of the Earth's blessing God never created you to be lazy elect officials who pay your bills God never created you to believe in demonic socialism where wealth is wicked and we are forced by our government to practice charity instead of by our heart's desire to help the poor God did not create you to sit in your prayer closet and hope for somebody to pay your bills God wants you to plant something in the ground get a cow get a sheep get a real estate get something that produces a fruit yes it's not miraculous but it's God's promise for you Pastor Vlad I smell Prosperity Gospel it's not many of us have gotten lazy we want Biden to pay our debts the other guy is not running anymore who wanted to give us everything free that is not God's purpose when God created us he put a mandate on us to cultivate the ground and to eat of the fruit of the ground sometimes God supernaturally intervenes and gives us something from heavenly's blessing that we don't work for we don't sow and those times are great but that is not God's plan God's plan is to prosper you not just to provide for you in the wilderness they ate only what was allowed for that day and when they craved meat it got them in trouble but in the promised land God says you can eat as much as you want you can conquer as much as you want as long as you don't forget who I am and you stay generous because that is my purpose for you is to experience prosperity and to experience generosity God will take Mana off of the menu so he can set you up for milk and honey but when you lose Mana we say the devil is attacking Spirit of poverty came against me I lost my job what if it's not a spirit of poverty what if your season changed what if the thing you've been carrying as a teenager that one day you will have your own business will never be realized until your Mana something you're grateful to God for comes to an end Mana pays your bills milk and honey helps other people Mana you don't have to learn QuickBooks management HR with Mana you don't have to learn none of that all you got to do is learn how to cash the check and pay the bills when you get milk and honey you got to learn gardening you got to learn cultivating the the ground you got to learn Seasons you got to learn where you're going to sell what you're going to reap you got to learn how to milk that cow you're going to have to learn how to how to turn the milk into cheese and how to turn the milk into butter you're going to have to put in some work you're going to have to take some classes you're going to have to go to work and create because the first revelation of who God is in the Bible is a Creator not a savior and many of us love to be on the receiving and God do everything I don't want to do anything and that is a good place to start that is not a good place to live in for the rest of your life maybe your mama your grandpa and your great grandpa always lived on man but I'm here to tell somebody your season is about to shift God is about to take you from Mana to milk and honey God is about to take you from what is just enough to more than enough come on somebody give God some praise right now the Bible says I pray that you will prosper as your soul prospers the Bible says that he gives power to get wealth the Bible says he finds pleasure in the prosperity of his servants the only people who don't fight who want Prosperity nowadays are not the Christians but the drug dealers the corrupt people because with their prosperity they sponsor prostitution and drugs and you come into church and all Christians are freaked out about the word prosperity it's almost like a cuss word nowadays how come obeying all of God's principles like being married to one person sleeping with one person work working Faithfully automatically in most of the default settings lead to Greater Financial provision than sleeping around doing drugs and getting drunk and being lazy how come God's principles just obeying them kind of leads you in that direction how come our God has streets of gold how come our God comes to a Peter who's failing at fishing and he fills his boat with fish how come our God takes the boys lunch and fills it the 12 baskets are left over because our God is an El Shai not just the god of I'll get by it's okay to be poor it's just not okay to think poor it's okay to struggle it's just not okay to let it be in your head it's okay to go through hard times all of us do and you can be righteous and struggle that is completely fine but please understand never lose sight of who your God is what his character is and what his promise is for your life and I'm not talking about bling and bling and being hasht blessed and lucky and walking around to show off to people I'm talking about having enough for the calling of God on your life having enough to help your children having enough to help your local church having enough to help a brother down the street that's [Applause] struggling somebody say from Mana the milk and honey that's the shift so next time God removes Mana off of the menu don't freak out ask the Lord say Lord is there a cow somewhere you want me to find CU God ain't going to be giving you milk he's just going to give you a cow is there a calf somewhere I need to find God is there a bee ah those bees have been stinging me but do I need to gather a beehive cuz God ain't going to give you honey you going to need to find some bees and learn to work with them and that requires what skill management that requires sometimes little sleepless nights that requires some learning new skills oh yeah it's way easier to just pray Lord me meet my needs and believe for the check to arrive in your mailbox but you were not created for that now if you're in disability you're elderly you cannot work I'm not talking about that I'm talking about able working people young people who are sitting today under butts and hoping for the government to take care of them shame on you get off of your blessed assurance Jesus is mind and work the Bible says He blesses the work of our hands he doesn't bless your dreams He blesses your work ethic go to work God gives us ideas God gives us desires God gives us diligence that we need to put into work you got to work that ground yeah it's easy to come out and gather ma Mana but in a Promised Land there's no Mana you got to cultivate the ground but the amazing part in the promised land you can have as much as you want and eating meat doesn't make you sick like it happened in a Wilderness you can have as much as you able as long as you honor God and fulfill his purpose amen are you ready for number three number three we have to move from Secret sin to secret place okay now that we finish with all the stuff we wanted to hear let's talk about the stuff that we need to hear the Bible says in Joshua 3:5 Joshua said to the people sanctify yourselves for tomorrow somebody say tomorrow tomorrow God will do wonders among you I want you to notice today's sanctification is tomorrow Supernatural today's prayer is tomorrow's power today's Purity is tomorrow's blessed marriage today's hard work is tomorrow's prosperity it's never today that you get what you do today today's compromise is tomorrow's Scandal today's prayerlessness is tomorrow's powerlessness today's flirting with sin is tomorrow falling in sin you never fall the day you flirt that's why the Bible says sanctify yourself for not today but tomorrow never get discouraged just because you've been sanctified in yourself Walking with God and you haven't been seeing the fruit because it's tomorrow that it's coming and also don't feel happy if you've been slipping tripping and sipping and doing all of this stuff you're look man but I didn't get caught your judgment is coming tomorrow is coming Harvest is coming tomorrow the Bible says now the story of Joshua has two Secrets first you start with the secret that happened with The Prostitute the scripture says this woman most likely was we don't know that but we assume a temple prostitute so she was a didn't not one of those things you will be proud by putting in your resume not a good person not in a get place but she had great faith I want you to notice what she did she hid two spies somebody say two spies she what did she do with them she hit them she protected them in fact one of them later on became her husband salon so this Rahab who was in the wrong place at the wrong time because Jericho's about to be demolished what she does is she hides something and keeps it there because she hid the spies her future was changed she saved her family her career was changed because now she was no longer a prostitute she was now a child of God she was part of Israeli family she actually end up in Matthew chapter 1 as part of Jesus's ancestry what you hide today will change your tomorrow if you hide the two spies called prayer and the scriptures every day in a matter of five years your tomorrow will change Jesus says what you do in secret I will reward publicly if you secretly pray if you secretly fast if you secretly give nobody will see the difference at first but I promise you based on the authority of God's word your tomorrow will be rewarded by God sanctify yourself today for tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow says the Lord I will bring a shift I will do wonders in your life what happened to Rahab is going to happen to you your tomorrow is going to change I can testify of that myself when I just came to United States I was a 13 years of age I didn't speak any English because of a birth challenge that happened my optical nerve was damaged and I spent in a hospital few years of my life after that I developed extreme migraine headaches and because one of my lips uh eyelid eyelids is weaker than the other one when I look up one eye looks up the other one looks down I had a first surgery when I was about 11 years of age it didn't help I had a second surgery at 13 and a half in the United States it didn't help I remember skipping a keyboarding class in my high school because I was embarrassed to stand in front of group of 20 students and do a 60-minute presentation on where I was born I would spend that day in a bus station pleading with God because I had a phobia of public speaking I mean I had chronic phobia not only that I had extreme migrant headaches my prayer as a 13-year-old was such this Lord cause an accident where I can die because the world will be a better place with me not in it I didn't attempt to commit suicide I knew it was wrong I knew God wasn't pleased with it but I wanted God to kill me it's so since God wasn't answering the prayer I was locking myself every day Monday through Friday after school from 13 to about 16 years of age for 30 minutes in my room after school blast Carmen blast Michael W Smith they were pretty famous during those days so that my parents would not hear that I'm crying and complaining to God why he let me be born I spent 30 minutes I grew up in church I didn't do anything bad I mean I always was in church I had a Godly family my mom and dad they the best parents my great-grandfather SAT in jail for the cause of Christ so I didn't have a family abuse not of that but see something happened is that this world that I was in the shock of the new culture in America the shift of all of that caved in so hard that I did not want to live but I locked myself in a secret place I didn't know about secret place I was there to vent not pray I wasn't there to seek God I was there so I don't blow my brains off that was the only place I knew I can go because I don't want to go do drugs I don't want to smoke but I'm just going to go and vent to God and I would start say God why did you make me why am I feeling like this why am I being rejected why I'm not good in school why nobody asked my name but they say what happened to your eye why I got kicked out of church worship team why is this happening I'm not good at this I'm not good at this and after you vent CU venting is like throwing up you actually feel better and then I end up worshiping the very God I just accused of stuff I was like God you're good your presence is amazing I love you so much the next day the same thing the next day the same thing I did that for about two years until one day God's like you're not even angry at me why are you saying the same stuff he's like just start with worship right away and I was like oh I could do that and I'm like and your presence will be there he's like yeah you don't have to complain to get my presence he's like I understand that you're complaining you're a teenager he like I'm okay with your fits and Tantrums and everything but he's like you don't have to do that anymore you actually don't have a headache anymore I was like you're right I don't have a headache anymore God supernaturally healed me of a headache and then he's like you're no longer scared of people my grace starts becoming 4.0 I start speaking in my public school on like a 3000 Auditorium uh 911 memorial and I was doing a Bible verse in front of the whole school I was skipping a keyboarding class in front of 20 students and now I'm speaking and but remember like this just going to happen naturally then I start speaking at church and the very thing I was afraid of changed now this is the crazy part I still have the same body so if you're thinking I had a surgery I didn't the only way I look a little bit better is because I've been married to a beautiful wife but other than that I'm the same guy the skin is stretched the same way over my skeleton the same way but the guy on the inside is totally different because when you sp time in a secret place your life changes on the inside when you spend time with God you will change on the inside your fears will break your anxieties will break God will set you free God will transform you if he took Rahab and made her into a great ancestor of Jesus what can he do with you power of a secret place I wasn't trying to be in Ministry I just didn't want to blow my brains off and now I'm in Ministry and I'm doing the very thing that if you would have told me when I was 14 years of age that one day you're going to do that I would say you're high in drugs but I I I got to not forget Rahab wasn't the only one that was hiding stuff in judges in Joshua at the same time as she was hiding things from Israel a guy in Israel was hiding things from Jericho aen was also hiding things and he got away with it didn't get caught at first aen had a promised land in front of him aen was in the right place at the right time on the right leadership everything was right except one thing his secret can I tell you every person in this room has a secret and it's a good thing the question is what kind of secret because everyone has it you either living in a secret place or in a secret sin but you're living in some secret your secret will make you sick or they'll bring Supernatural in your life you choose your secret your your secret chooses your future I'm all for having Secrets but make sure your secret is prayer fasting and giving make sure your secret is on your knees before God that nobody sees and nobody knows and you don't need to post about it because once God promotes you and blesses you everybody will see it but if you post about it you may skip the reward from God you don't need to blast about it move from a secret sin to a secret place you want to see a shift in your life if you remember only one thing that I mentioned tonight and that is this develop a secret place with God doesn't have to be long doesn't have to be super incredible in the eyes of other people but it has to be consistent and real for you and God in next five years mark from the day you start your secret place in five years track your life if you do that in five years you will be unrecognizable everyone that will see you will not recognize you if you're secretly living in sin don't Mark 5 years two years everyone will know about it you will lose everything that you have most likely have a DUI lose your marriage lose your job you will be an embarrassment to your community and you will get to the point you would wish you would die why because that's exactly what Secrets do they make us sick they either bring Supernatural or a scandal but they never stay secrets and that's what the new season teaches you your secrets matter develop them by make sure you keep the right Secrets amen are you so I'm out of time but I still have two more points it's always bad when the pastor says that in front of a pastor it's not like the pastor say no Vlad just stop I apologize for putting in the difficult spot number four move from victim to Victor move from victim mentality to a Victor mentality numbers 14:24 but my servant Caleb because he had has a different spirit in him and has followed me fully I will bring into the land where he went and his descendants shall inherited write this down you cannot go into a new season with an old mindset in the old season they had to complain and God gave them food in the new season they had to get circumcised and God gave them a strategy in the old season they waited for God to split the Red Sea in the new season God waited for them to step into Jordan and then God split the sea in the old season they waited on the rod of Moses to split and do the miracle in the new season it was the ark of God on the shoulders of the priest in other words your mindset has to be different when you walk into a new season this is I've noticed among Christians especially concerning the presence of God we pray this in our prayers Lord I will not go if you will not go with me I understand that prayer it's very deep and it belongs in a private place but my Bible says go into all the world so that's a command God doesn't say wait anymore more he says go and he finishes when you do the go he says lo I am with you that means you don't have to ask God to do what he said he will do you just simply have to do what he asks you to do and He will low if you go that's why the Bible says these signs will follow the scripture doesn't say the signs come and then we go we go and the signs follow Jesus says go and he says lo I am with you the Bible says in the new season in the promised land they did not wait on God God was waiting on them to step in in fact it's when they fought God fought it's when they did the stuff God did the stuff when you pray for the sick God will heal the sick when you cast out demons he will drive out demons when you tell your friends about Jesus he will save the lost when you open your home for a small group he will make disciples through you stop waiting and God and things he said do but I want the power the power of God in the life of a Believer is like a muscle if you move it it will grow if you release it it will grow if you wait for more of it God will not give it but but Apostles waited that happened once and the spirit has already been poured out he never went back to Heaven he's still here the spirit did not go back to heaven when disciples died he stayed with the church which means he waits for you to move you got to have a different Spirit different mindset the Bible says Caleb went to the promised land he saw the Giants because see the promised land has Giants everything God promises has problems inside for example you can be married God's promise sweet beautiful person that you married but they got Giants you probably don't see those giants yet they usually show up after third month of marriage and then you're like is there a return policy on this marriage kids are beautiful but they also got Giants business is beautiful but it also has Giants everything God promises has Giants inside and God doesn't just give you the promise without a problem inside for you to solve and Joshua goes in there Caleb goes in there and he doesn't just see Giants he sees God he doesn't see obstacle he sees opportunities he doesn't see problems he sees potential Joshua and Caleb they go in and they see what others see as a problem and Caleb sees it as hey this is yeah it's going to be hard but hey our God is a big God and this guy speaks like tall game and I want you notice what God looked at this positive junkie this guy that's optimistic and he says this guy has a different Spirit who fully followed me that means you cannot be Debbie the downer and Negative Nancy and and forgive me if your name is Nancy or dabby Debbie and think you're fully following God your God is not a pessimistic negative person your God is not nervous he's not scared your God doesn't have a phobia and he doesn't have a disorder and he doesn't have a diagnosis on any of that your God is a happy God a good god positive God optimistic God which means that if you're stepping into a new season you got to have a different Spirit you cannot walk with the spirit something bad is going to happen to me no no no you got to tell it to the devil devil something bad is going to happen to you you will go to hell I'm going to heaven you cannot look at your sickness and say oh something bad is going to happen to me this sickness will kill me you got to look at this sickness and say I'm not sick trying to get healthy I am healthy fighting sickness I'm not weak trying to get strong I am strong fighting weakness I'm not a sinner trying to get righteous I am righteous fighting sin struggle sin sickness is not my identity the word Caleb in original language means dog in Hebrew Caleb is dog so if you name your child Caleb just remember it's a dog but five things about dogs they always stay near the master cats are not like the go those of you who have cats God Bless you that's not the same thing like oh my cat no no no no no there's no name in the Bible for a cat maybe a lion a roaring lion but not a not a secondly the dog will always go where the master goes he can see sit next to you and literally comfortable in his sleep try to get up the dog will not say bye-bye no the dog will anywhere you go doesn't matter if it's sleep cycle he follow you and third thing about dogs dogs have a better scent than sight that's why they find things not with their eyes they find things with their nose in fact they say concerning dogs dog's sense of smell is 1,000 to 10 million times better than ours he has from 125 million to 300 million scent glands compared to 5 million for humans the part of the brain that controls your smell is 40 that controls your smell in a dog is 40 times larger than yours and the fourth thing dogs enjoy small pleasures of life and fifth one dogs can be train why am I talking about dogs your eyes don't know if it smells in the room right why your eyes can only see they can't smell you rely on your nose to tell your eyes that somebody farted your eyes cannot verify it it's not visible your ears cannot verify because some people do them Silent Ones your hand hands can't touch it your tongue can't taste it your nose is the only one that can detect something that is not visible to your eye heard by your ears touched by your hands and tasted by your tongue and the rest of the senses believe a sense from your nose cannot be seen cannot be heard cannot be tasted cannot be touched but because the nose said it must be true what if I were to tell you outside of your five senses there there's one more sense that detects things in the realm of the spirit the eyes the nose the ears cannot detect it's called faith faith sees the invisible it receives the impossible the eyes said I can't see it you're like well you're not supposed to because the realm the faith sees in eyes don't have no access for that's why when you see a challenge you cannot look it with your eyes you got to look it with another sense called Faith the Bible says Caleb had a different Spirit see you got to be like a dog meaning that you it's good to see with your eyes but you got to see something else with your spirit you got to see something else with the eyes of your faith that this sickness is not unto death this sickness is unto the glory of God that this poverty is not going to destroy my family but God will take us out of poverty into his provision you got to see with the eyes of Faith these Giants are not going to be killing us we are going to be eating them for lunch you got to see see with a different sight you got to see with a different like with your nose your eyes can't see it your feelings cannot confirm it but something in your spirit that connects to the spirit of God says my God is the god of Miracles my God is the god of impossible my God promised and he is faithful I know the time has passed and nothing happened but my God is above time he can do the impossible a young girl testified last Sunday she had SE seizures and the doctor said she'll never be able to compete at gymnastics but Mom you know not based on what she heard from the doctors and we bless the doctors not based on what she's seen in her daughter's body she believed on something you can taste smell touched and it's not there but see there is more to life than what you there's another world a world of Miracles and guess what that world is Faith the same way you trust your nose when your eyes cannot smell your ears cannot smell you trust your nose trust in God's promise because that promise in the realm of the spirit is what's going to bring about change in the visible realm that promise and this daughter of her not only it's been a year since she did not have one seizure the doctor gave her a clean bill of health and she went back to gymnastics and she started bringing Awards and she brought those Awards to church and said listen I thank God for the doctors but there is another sense in me called faith that believes in the promise of the great physician and my God still heals the sick my God still delivers drug addicts my God still sets the captives free from alcoholism my God still takes the gang banger and makes him into a gospel preacher that is what my God can do somebody give God some praise right now have a different Spirit have a spirit of Faith have a spirit that everything is possible with God I'm not getting your hopes up I'm getting your faith up your God can turn your ministry around your God can save your children I know they're blocked your number but listen God has a way to reach them that you can there is a realm that is greater than you and I and that's the spiritual realm and God is the Supreme King over this realm and that realm I have the authority over the earth and the heavens Jesus said he holds the keys of Hades death hell and the grave is The Great I Am is the Alpha and the Omega he conquered death he can solve your problem a lady came with leukemia to church in our church in our service and then a prayer was offered where we asked Believers to pray for other believers she felt the pain gone comes on the stage and says Pastor I feel healed and in our church we always tell people you got to go back to the doctor we're not afraid of medical confirmation if it's real healing the doctors will confirm it we don't bch the doctors she goes back to the doctor and the doctor examines her and says you need to come back in a week and instead of calling her and saying everything is fine he says you need to quickly come to my office she's scared she's like I don't know because the doctor never tells me he always tells me the bad news on the phone and he didn't tell me this means that it's news is really bad he goes back she goes back the doctor brings her clean bill of health no cancer in her blood completely healed and it's been almost two years already she did another test and there's no cancer in the blood why because you got to trust in your God I know the medicine does their best but the medicine works with natural laws my God raised Supreme in the realm of the spirit and he triumphs over every natural law and he kills the sick he delivers the captives and he Saves The Lost can somebody say amen and the last thing the last move that must happen is you must move from Deliverance to Dominion you must move from Deliverance to Dominion in the new season in the promised land not only you got to move from stress to strength from Mana to milk and honey from Secret sin to secret place from victim to Victor but from Deliverance to Dominion write this down go from Deliverance through discipleship to Dominion God wants to deliver you from Egypt develop you through the Wilderness so that you can possess your promise in the promised land and that's called Dominion God did not create you for deliverance write this down he created you for Dominion Genesis 1 128 the Bible doesn't say be fruitful and multiply and get delivered from demons the Bible says be fruitful and multiply fill the Earth and subdue it and have dominion the Bible says in Romans 5:17 through the gift of righteousness in the abundance of Grace that you will reign in life the scripture says in Luke that I given you authority to tremle upon snakes and scorpions the Bible says in Psalm 149 it says the twoed sword is in their mouth and in their hand and High Praise of God to bind Kings to to bind Nobles to execute the Judgment of God meaning to do spiritual warfare see you have to understand when you are in Egypt you're a slave but when you're in a Promised Land you're a soldier when you're in Egypt you have battle you have bondage when you're in a Promised Land you have a battle can I say something God will never deliver you from a battle he only delivers from bondage battle is a privilege of free people I'm under a battle it's because you're free people who are not free are not in a battle they're in bondage why are these Philistines attacking me because you're in the promised land in Egypt you're not being attacked you're being tormented in Egypt you are bound in Egypt you are being tormented but when you are in the promised land you are doing the tormenting you are speaking back you're submitting to God and resisting the devil you are the one that's trampling over scorpions and snakes in Promised Land you are not free from Battle you are free from bondage and God gives you Victory if you fight but let me tell you what we do in the promised land lord send the blood of the Lamb kill them Philistines for me I'm just so tired it's just endless endless amount of enemies Lord send me a Moses maybe it's a pastor of Vlad who will come and just take all of my problems away how will you be a soldier if you don't have an enemy to fight how can you exercise Authority if God removes the threat of the enemy how how can you reign in life if you have no subjects to rule over in Egypt you have Pharaoh but in the promised land Philistines have you they're under your feet and God doesn't remove them he gives them to you to remove now that is very important because there are many of you here today you've experienced deliverance and because you don't didn't catch what I just said and you don't go through discipleship to Dominion you keep going back to deliverance and you go from Deliverance to Deliverance to Deliverance deliverance from Deliverance to Deliverance God never created Deliverance to be something you keep going back to you're supposed to go from Deliverance through discipleship into Domin amen I'm a pastor I'm not on a YouTuber okay or a Deliverance uh Minister I'm a pastor and I want to Pastor you just for a moment Let me Give an example there was a time I was bound by pornography it was a demonic thing I didn't think it was demonic I got exposed at the age of 11 or 12 and then something entered me at the age of 13 I felt it I couldn't think it was a a demon cuz I was one of those people though I didn't believe that Christians canot have demons but I definitely didn't think I could have demons I believe the Christians could have demons like you guys could have him just just not me other people can have him definitely not me I mean I know myself I'm a good guy I don't do a cult witchcraft woodoo Ione know that stuff I'm a good Christian boy but I watched porn at 13 and a half and something I felt something entered me I thought it was just sexual lust got stirred up and after that no matter how much discipline I tried it constantly pushed me to watch porn and this happened 20 years ago when we didn't have internet we didn't even have an AOL at the time it was one of those internets that you had to like everybody has to stop using a house phone for you to get on and nothing was even available with pornography and pornography I didn't find pornography pornography always found me and I would always fall no matter how hard I tried once a month after struggling for about 2 3 years I went to my pastor he prayed for me and everything and then the Lord really just enlightened my mind that this is spiritual because when you've tried the discipline because the Bible says if your hand causes you to sin you what you cut it out if you cut the hand and something keeps touching you're not dealing with the hand you're dealing with the spirit if you remove the eye and something keeps seeing you're dealing with the spirit somebody else is seeing it's not you anymore so when you when you put the discipline and you realize it's not working most likely you're dealing with the spirit I'm not saying you are I'm saying most likely there's a chance it might not be there for me it was there the Lord led me through a 7-Day fast and in that 7-Day fast a lot of renouncing and everything happened something left me now I didn't shake bake rolling around or or or or or vomit all of that though that's also welcome but I was free how I know I was free when the Temptation was there Temptation didn't stop nothing pushed me I was able to walk away from it and and I was free and I am free for the glory of God that's Deliverance who needs Deliverance those who have demons period can a Christian have that can a Christian open their house to a mosquito if you own the house does it mean the mosquitoes never fly in no mosquitoes don't read title Deeds mosquito read open doors if it's an open window they get in so same thing that's the way demons operate demons don't read oh you prayed The Sinner prayer let me check right now on the record oh this was 20 days ago all right of course we can enter the fact that you're practicing woodoo yeah you know you're under the blood that's not how demons think demons operate through open doors that's why Paul warned Christians not unbelievers he said do not give place that's why he said keeps the windows closed I know you're a Believer keep them locked and when the mosquito gets in the house you don't lose the ownership of the house you just lose the peace in the house so when a demon gets in it doesn't mean Jesus gets out it just simply means that you start having problems and the only solution for a mosquito is to kill it and the only solution for a demon is to cast it out you don't hug them out you don't consel them out you don't love them out you don't disciple them out you don't pray them out you don't even fast them out you cast them out you don't prophesy them out I've seen people prophesy the is a demon I was like what are you prophesying that to cast that thing out you don't speak in tongues out you command them out oh but I'm just going to accept Jesus and the demons will leave where did you find one instance in the Bible where Jesus came into a place and demons left where Jesus came demons manifested never left they only left when he commanded them out if Jesus cast demons out not by his presence by his command he told us to do the same so stop being smart than Jesus smarter than Jesus do what Jesus did and do what Jesus commanded cast demons out out of who those who have them and don't discriminate that's Deliverance discipleship is developing discipline but that the purpose of Deliverance is to get into discipleship the purpose of discipleship is so you can become a discipl maker but this is the key right here is Dominion what is Dominion it's when when you begin to now in here you rebuke the demon in here you resist the demon why because in here the demon is on the inside you need to rebuke him out in here the demon is on the outside sometimes pretending to be on the inside and you got to resist him the Bible says and he will flee from you let me give an example the Lord delivered me from porn but I want to tell you how the Lord delivered me from the spirit of fear now I didn't have that I don't think I had it inside of me but as long as I could remember I had a difficult time sleeping with lights off I was embarrassed to admit that because I was already a youth pastor you can come to your mom and say Mom I'm scared to sleep at night and by the way I'm a man of God pretty embarrassing but I struggled with that being a youth pastor I had to lock the church almost always I was the last one to leave I can't tell you how many times when I locked the church and our parking lot didn't have lights I ran to my car and looked for Jack Reaper in the back of my seat and sped from the parking lot as fast as I could I thank God I never got any tickets from that and I would speed and speak in tongues because honestly I was scared never told this to anybody my fears got even worse when I read Rebecca Brown's book he came to set the captives free till 2:00 in the morning do not recommend to do that if you're struggling with fear I felt like demons were always hunting me after that book I'm married one year less than one year into marriage we are in an apartment with my wife my wife is painting there's a painter and satday she's painting I'm preparing a sermon I see this sermon in front of my eyes right now called victory over the devil we have dinner we had one of those cheaper Apartments where the living room didn't have light so we were eating dinner and I would see this regularly in a darker parts of my house or apartment I always saw dark dark shadows and they spooked me always but I just turned away and you know you know like tried to kind of work myself up out of out of that phobia this time I see it again and I grab my wife's hand during dinner and squeeze it hard and she's like is everything okay and I'm being and I'm like oh I just love you so much she's like why do you have to squeeze my hands so hard I was like just man imagine 2 4 years I lived without you I just just so happy to be with you now so she's not stupid she's realizing something is not right with this guy we finish eating she's going to the sink and I'm following after her with my plate to the sink literally like hug pretending that I'm like all you know in love but in reality I'm scared right now we turn off the lights everywhere and I'm literally following my wife grabbed her hand going into the room we locked the room and then we have a long Hall which then goes to the kitchen and it's everything dark there and my wife gets one of these craving she's like I'm so thirsty can you get get me water so I do the map mentally if I get out of this room and I get to the hell ho right now Hall Darkness great Darkness there is no light switch until I get to the kitchen by the time I get there I'm dead I am dead whatever is there in my house is going to kill me so I asked her I said can you go get the water and while you're there get it for me because I'm working on a very important point in my sermon which had to do with overcoming the devil it was easier to preach it than to actually face it and I remember my wife she's like she's like what's wrong with you I nothing I think I'm yeah yeah of course of course I can get you water and I'm thinking okay this is what I'm going to do is I'm going to run quickly turn on the light I'm going to leave the light on and then when we go to sleep I'll have my wife turn off the light and this way I avoid death tonight and right before I do that I hear the still small voice of the Holy Spirit and he said this he said you are the light don't turn on the light he says go in there and commend that thing to leave your life once and for all now I'm having this conversation in my head I would never have this conversation out loud where my wife is listening and I said Lord you don't understand I'm going to die my hair ha is already all up I'm already scared and I'm standing in the room when I'm not even in the hall yet I've never done this he says that's the problem he says you've been running from this and he said it has a control over your life he says you need to face it and you need to verbally command it to leave your life I knew clearly in my heart it wasn't inside but it was something that was harassing me on the outside I decided to put my sermon into practice I open the door and what I did is I closed the the door behind me and I put him my stood in a Hell Darkness I walked into the middle of the living room I to say that I was scared as understatement I was petrified I thought that was the end of me that's going to be end of me I was scared to death but being scared I remember this is what I said in the living room I'm not saying to quote this prayer I'm not saying this was the most theologically sound prayer but this is what came out of my head whatever you are whoever you are I PID the rent get out of my house again I didn't have holy water or crucifix within about 3 seconds it's like I felt it I've never had a similar experience since that time for the last 12 years of my life what am I sharing with you Deliverance is what God does for you discipleship is what he does in you Dominion is what he does through you let me say that again write this down Deliverance is what he does for you discipleship is what he does in you and Dominion is what he does through you in new season you will have to learn to walk in Dominion not just expect for another Deliverance because God doesn't deliver so he can deliver more and more he delivers so he can Empower for Dominion
