The Revelation of Rejection | Pastor Keion Henderson

a wonderful job today from my music ministry excellent job great job I'm gonna do something that I've never done before in nine years I'm getting ready to preach the same text that I preached last week but it won't be the same sermon I made this decision yesterday I was telling our staff that God's Word is so alive that if we really approach it right you can go back to the next day and see something totally different the reason why sometimes we can't see the Word of God different is because we often approach it from our opinions so it'll say the same thing because you think the same thing one of the arts of preaching is that whenever you go to the text you have to go empty and let it speak if you go thinking you already know what the Hebrew boys did then you will say what you said last time but God is a river of water which means that every time you dip you will get a new cup because even though he doesn't change his word is an ever evolving word it is a Living Word that's why we go to a church that's an organism not an organization it lives it lives and it is in him that we all right well Genesis chapter 4 verse 1 and today I want to talk about the revelation of rejection I'll talk about the revelation of rejection because some of you have been rejected you haven't found out why and you're walking around still defining yourself based on when they were through with you not knowing that rejection is actually a doorkeeper rejection is actually a doorkeeper that actually shows you who qualifies for your future anybody who rejects you disqualify himself from your future and you should thank them because had they not rejected you you would have kept them and you wouldn't have found out until you started the journey with them that they didn't intend to finish it with you [Applause] [Music] Genesis chapter 4 verse 1 we know what it says and Adam knew Eve and she conceived and bare a son and in verse 2 says and she again gave him Abel and Abel was a tiller of the ground verse 3 and in the process of time McCain Cain had brought fruit of the ground an offering of the Lord and Abel he also brought the first leg of the flock that they both brought an offering but it was different one brought fruit one brought first are you with me so far but first five but unto Cain and to his offering God had no respect and Cain was very wroth that means he was upset he was angry he felt rejected and the countenance fell that where countenance means he literally held his head down his face went down he held his head down he was upset and the Lord said unto Cain what you mad at and why are you allowing your face to fall if you did well you would have been accepted god help me in this place and in what he says basically he says in and if you'll do well I'll give you an opportunity to come back and resubmit the offering so that you can get the same thing your brother got but because his head was down his ears were not open because your life will always go in the direction if you keep your head down your what whatever direction your head is in whatever direction your thinking is in your life is going and what happened he couldn't get his head up so he killed his brother I want to talk about the revelation of rejection if you've been rejected by anybody and anything in this house I have come to set you free I've come to set you free such that neighbor say this is my setting free season you may be seated in the presence of the Lord I Jacob I was looking up the word revelation in the scripture I saw something that I never saw before we all know Erik that revelation is when God shows us you know something that has previously been concealed there was something Kody called an etymology don't ever forget that word an etymology most people Josh or Mari they know the definition but they don't know the etymology see the definition is subjugated to interpretation see because you may define love differently than me I made to find love through acts of service you may define love through words of affirmation it's the same word but it doesn't have the same definition are you following me so sometimes in order to find out what a word means you don't look up the definition you look up a Teta mala ji the etymology is the the gravitas the status the beginning the foundation the origin of you go back and find out what they meant when the word was first spoken in 1710 are perhaps fourteen thirty or whatever the word came from and this word this word revelation has grain gained ground over the last hundred years it has changed and morphed into something because watch this to us it means that something that has not been previously seen as now revealed but the etymology actually means REE again veiled watch this it's revealed so what he's saying is is that when God reveals something he removes the veil he removes the veil don't miss this because this microphone is still a microphone even though it is on the other side of the veil and I don't get to change what it is because I can't see it see what most people think is that when God reveals something then it becomes what they saw know it already was what it was but you did not have the ability that's why some people won't realize who you are until you're gone they won't realize it it won't be revealed to them you have always been patient you have always been loving but their veil did not allow them to see who you were so without the ability to see they interpreted based on how they felt but didn't realize who you were what your capacity was and you're getting ready to walk into a season I promise you where God is getting ready to reveal things to you somebody said God revealed it don't define it reveal it God show me what it really is show me what it really means make it so obvious that I cannot make a mistake and God don't let it want me if it's not for me god help me I need somebody to hear me because will you be honest then sometimes you want something that ain't for you God I don't want this thing so bad let me lose a desire for it and let it see some of y'all you got to get your prayer right you're saying God give me the power to leave you don't have it so ask God give it the power to leave me this sermon is about the revelation of what happened to you that that it was good that you were afflicted but it is not good that you did not find out why it was good that you went through that divorce what is not good is that you did not find out the reason it was good God used because what all things work together for what the good of them that are called so it is good that I was afflicted what is not good is that I have not unveiled my eyes to find out why I was rejected why didn't the marriage work why can you not get along with your daughter why does your son hate you why can't you and your sister be in the same room for 10 minutes without wanting to bite each other's heads off I know you ain't gonna like this sermon but we're gonna find out this revelation why is it that every time somebody says something to you that devil rises up in you and that monster comes and that temper gets ready to flare and you feel that nervousness in your stomach why is it that you can imagine yourself ripping somebody's head off just because they didn't speak you better find out why are you a damn to repeat the same behavior first of all let me actually before I go any further who is this sermon for because I don't want to waste your time you only got a few more weeks in this year and you ain't got no time to be going in the next year with the same foolishness you don't have any time to let anybody who's in the graves still control your life you don't have any time to let a five-year-old ten-year-old divorce still be influencing your current relationship I need somebody to holla at your boy somebody anybody who is ready to move on who's ready to step over the thing that's been stepping on you I need you to shout at me and let me know that you in this house that this is a season that you are making up in your mind that you're moving on I'm only one to talk to the movers if you want to sit still go to sleep get on Instagram check your status but if there's anybody who want to change your status let me know you in the house how many of you heard me preach this text last week raise your hand so for those of you who didn't this is the oldest family in the scripture Adam meets Eve we don't want to go through the garden store we don't have enough time Adam meets Eve he knew her they have a baby damn Cain's here Cain's the first child he's under generational curse because his father was made to till the ground and now he's a farmer he's a tiller of the ground now he has the same curse because the ground won't yield to him it won't yield to him it won't yield to him it won't give him what he wanted out of it but his brother his brother he wasn't he wasn't a tiller of the ground he wasn't a farmer he was a shepherd which means he tend to sheep and it came time for both of them to give an offering and one guy came he took all of his offering I want you to think about all the money you have in your pocket he took all of his money he went to the bank and he deposited it and then he decided how much he was going to give God and then he brought God son back from the bank Abel didn't go to the bank Abel gathered everything he took his offering to the Lord and he took for himself what was left he deposited what he had left over what God really is telling us is he's like us he really doesn't like leftovers God said I want every meal fresh cooked I don't I don't want it out of the refrigerator I don't want you to bring me a plate all y'all in here I want to eat out of the pot I want to know when it's stressed I want to be I want to watch this he gave him fruit but he gave him the first link what we call the first fruit some of you are right now in December you better be getting your first fruit ready you better be getting your first crew ready don't you wait until 2019 to get your first offering together you need to be saving right now you need to be putting aside right now some of us have big things from God and one of the things that I've always practiced is in the beginning of the year I give God my first month's income I give him the first month I'm not giving him the first 10% I'm giving him the first month because I know that when I give him first that determines what he gives me next and if you give them us if you give them a small first fruit don't be mad when my blessing is the size of a watermelon and yours is the size of the cherry it depends on what fruit you sold all y'all here with me today I said are you here with me today see it's amazing when I said rejection you were shout and I say seed you shut up it's a it's a shame and this is why this is why you are in the predicament that you're in it's because you think you're smarter than God you're not going to change the law he doesn't react to your tears he reacts to your faith and no matter how much you try to trick him he will not be manipulated will you tell people if you reject the shout give a seat don't work like that Church I'll tie the shout one of the ways well let me just do it this way because I want to teach the first thing I want to talk to you about is that rejection reveals rejection reveals all right one of the ways you know you're suffering from rejection and insecurity is that your natural reaction is to end things instead of fix things okay God rejected his offering and he killed his brother because when you are rejected you always go to the end if you are married to a rejected person they always want to divorce every argument when you are with somebody and they will tell you they're not insecure and they will tell you that they're fine but let me diagnose it because I don't live with you whenever you have somebody who wants to end everything every time there's a problem they're suffering with rejection whenever a person is rejected whenever their feelings are not intact whenever person is unstable whenever they're insecure they run past the solution and run right to the end it's always over they always quitting the job they don't get a little raise they quit and go somewhere else and work for less money why because they'd rather have their pride than stability i'ma walk heavy in this it's gonna be for real up in here today y'all touch the name say come on now some of them looking like oh I thought this was gonna be one of them sermons where I could just be empowered I'm empowering you but it's gonna hurt a little bit I'm gonna put some I'm gonna put some salve on it at the end we're gonna put a little baby powder and we're I'm gonna rub it it's the wound it's gonna be fine but you got to stick with me I cannot get this serum into you without an injection this is not a topical solution this ain't cream I can't rub it on the surface I got to find a way to get it in deep are you with me so far rejection reveals Kane ends his relationship with his brother by means of murder because God rejected his offering rejected people don't even hurt the people who rejected him Abel didn't reject his offering God rejected his offering but he went to Abel why because he knew he was able to kill Abel rejected people don't even hurt the source they hurt who's closest and something y'all gonna have to be honest with this because you get mad at work and then come home and yell at the dog you mad at your child's father and you take it out on the child you mad at your ex-husband and yet you don't trust your current husband why because rejected people hurt the closest people what I'm calling for you today is not to imprison the people who are close because you don't have the courage to confront the people who were there you have to get over this thing you got it reveals come on talk to me check it reveals it reveals that you're not over what you say you're over it reveals that you're still hurting we can tell we know you say you're over it but it's like a rash in heat it always comes up to the surface and you try to cover it up but it'll show because when you're rejected your only answer is let's just end it well what about working through it I don't feel like it I get your chance last time you took care of it so I'm gonna give you another one to hurt me again and don't that sound like music come on I forgave you once what you want me to do stupid be stupid and keep forgiving you over and over again God gave me a brain what they forget is why they trying to tell you they're tolerating you they forget that you have been also rejection reveals he hath the ability to do the same thing his brother did he could have went back and said God you never forgive me I was trippin let me let me go make this withdrawal out of Ben can I get all my stuff make the redraw go back to God please forgive me I mean I didn't mean to do it I just I guess got a little selfish I start worrying about my bills you know my rent was coming and I know how I was gonna make it Christmas was rolling around in the Concours came out on Saturday and I really didn't know what I was gonna do and I was trying to make sure that my baby had the Jordans and all that kind of stuff I was trippin you know I went to Turks and Caicos for vacation and and didn't know that I needed a cellphone plan and that I needed to call my cell phone so my cell phone bill got a little high because I was on the internet and didn't know I was roaming and when I went out to restaurant with my girls they called me I knew I wasn't supposed to go got that told myself I was just gonna have chicken fingers in water but I got there got caught up and order some some rock and some [Applause] kind of thought that they was gonna pay forward but they didn't often didn't I got stuck don't ever act like you ain't been done no dinner table like I hope they paying for this just in case ain't I'll take the chicken fingers lemon slices in water please and then when they pay for you like dang I should have ordered that steak I don't know rejection does what it reveals he had the ability to do the same thing but I've learned something Joe some people have ability some people have capacity to different things he had the ability to give the same offering but he did not have the capacity to do it let's find out what the differences are all right ability means that you possess the skill to do a thing capacity is the ability to understand the thing now let's talk about it because a lot of people can do it they just can't understand it right you can say I'm sorry you just can't understand why you have to you you have the ability to walk in the house and say you know what I don't know what's going on with us we haven't been getting along in a while but I'm gonna be the bigger person to just say you know whatever I've done will you for you have the ability but you don't have the capacity what you do is you go in a house lay in the bed because you don't have capacity you don't have capacity to be bigger than your issue you don't have the capacity to say I'm sorry when you've been wronged you don't have the capacity to bridge the gap even when you're the one that didn't burn it down that's capacity that's not ability and in order to have a successful business a successful family a successful relationship a healthy mind and a healthy heart it is not about your ability it's about your capacity do you have the capacity to say I'm sorry when you've been wronged do you have the capacity to pray for people who won't even think about you do you have the capacity not to talk down about your child's father to your child for the health of your child and not the release of yourself I wish I had somebody in here will say God increase my capacity I am tired of holding up my blessings because I don't have capacity a lot of people can do stuff they just don't have the mind the understanding on why and how they should do it and this is not about ability this is about capacity Cain had the ability he didn't have the capacity he didn't have the kind of heart that allowed him to give God the first fruit point blink he had he had the grain he just didn't have the heart that's why tithing is a hard issue you have the money you just don't have the heart for it how do I know you have the money because it's not about a dollar amount it's a percentage amount and everybody in here could give 10% of what he gave them but you have a 2% heart you got to give God your whole heart your whole mind and all of your service God says to David the reason why you're my king of choice is not because of your morals because you go sleep with every woman in Israel I'm not looking for a moral person if I have moral people I wouldn't have have to down the cross this is not about your morals this is not about your values you are my king because you're after my I wish I had some Bible readers in here now watch this it doesn't mean that David and God had the same heart when we hear that we say David was a man after God's own heart so we think there is a synonymous analogy that David had a good heart like God no it means that David was after God's heart that he was pursuing a heart like God that he was trying to love like God he was trying to forgive like God he was trying to come on somebody it's not about arriven but how are you after it slap somebody say are you after you might not be tithe and yet but are you after it you might have a cold heart but are you after it you might still be depressed but are you after it you may have forgiveness issues but are you after forgiveness somebody slap somebody say go after it go after it go after it come on tell somebody go after it this is the season to go after it this is the season to track it down this is the season to tell the devil I'm after everything that God has for me I will not sit still and be jealous of Abel because he gave the right offering i'ma go back and readjust mine and I'ma come back and be after it somebody shall go after it you got to go after it but what happens pop Richardson is there rejection for some of us and if you be honest I only have to take a toll or Pohl rejection leaves a bitter taste in your mouth because see when you do right by people and they don't do right by you it's aftertaste yeah it is how many are dealing with the aftertaste I remember one time me and first lady went to Miami and we ate at mr. childs and we were in there and now I've seen that bill I said there's a child I don't know how you charge all of that for some lettuce wraps so we we eat and you go to mr. child's they bring they give you everything and dishes you know it's the first dish and it's the second dish so I grew up in the house everything come on one plate come on ain't no ain't no appetizer given you know everything on one plate even if it's a salad it's on the same plate with the meal huh you're gonna have chili and cornbread the cornbread sit on top of the chili i'ma say you ain't gonna mess up no to place unless you're gonna wash them I grew up in Houston y'all y'all probably had to do this but my mama gave us plastic cups we had to write our name on it we had to write our name it was sitting on the county we send a touch another one if you want to and see what happened to you see one eye you had to drink out of their cup all day long I wish you would in our house leave a bottle water half-full sitting on the countertop Mama's gonna sit there I bet drink it out drink it all shouldn't I ask for it you're gonna finish it go to mr. Chow's and they bring you all these dishes out but right before they bring you the main course they bring you this little scoop of lemon sorbet yes sir buddy and you post a ticket and you posed to put it on your tongue and you know how you it's called cleansing your palate the reason why you have to cleanse your palate is because your taste buds have memories and you'll be eating duck but tasting chicken because your your your taste buds will give you an idea of a previous experience so they have to bring in something that cuts up the palate all things have to be all things have to be passed away so that you can see that all things are new the problem with some of you is that you haven't cleanse your palate and so since your tastebuds have a memory you think John and James is the same person and when you are rejected you have a memory and you know you are informed by your memory and not your experience so you will tell yourself that something is happening that's not actually happening because you're a feeding out of your memory and not your reality somebody ought to say a man in you so now since your other man cheated on you every time the old man step out the house you think he cheating because you won't cleanse your palate come on come on chirps come on come on ha let your boy you don't trust no woman because the last woman you had was untrustworthy and so now you looking at a good woman sideways because you had a woman you ain't had no business having and you won't go to Bible study to cleanse your palate and when you do come to church you want to be the chef [Applause] so you only eat what you want to eat come on y'all you only shout about what you wanna shout about and when I start challenging you and rebuking you and trying to change you you zone out and you get on Instagram because you don't want your palate cleaned but if a man is going to be changed it has to be by the renewing of the palate you have to renew it and you have to be clean that's what David was God's choice created me a clean pallet rejection actually just reveals what your tastebuds are and so now you think negative so much until it feels real come on church I know I'm right I've been here and I've and I've done this you you think so negative and you build this whole story well this means that that means this no it meant that and it meant this but it doesn't necessarily it means that you gonna have to reset your mind you're gonna have to reset your palate and I don't know what you're gonna have to do but you're gonna have to break up the meal you're gonna have to do something that allows you to see differently and think differently and have different experiences and give a person a chance to hurt you let me let me come down cuz I don't want to hear me and I'm a preacher anyway you have to give a person the opportunity to hurt you and not already assume that all men are the same so what you do is you just wait on him to do what the last person did and do you know why he did it because anything you expect you experience if you keep expecting it you're going to experience it because as a man thinks whatever you think you're going to receive whatever you expect is going to show up if you had expected it to work it would have I know what you saying it ain't my father what he did he did it this is it's just it may be his issue but what part will you admit in the murder how can two walk together unless they agree you may not have pushed him over the edge but you did welcome to the cliff you you you say why don't you trust me she has a reason not to she has a reason she's she saw her memory and she thinks about it and she's a woman and she's been told to survive and so what she does is whatever she can to survive if she has children it's an even heightened sense how am I gonna make it if he pulls his income from me what am I gonna do I can't afford this car I can't afford this mortgage where we gonna go who we gonna live with rejection will make you make a masterpiece out of miss Kane I wish I could have told you to lift up your head cuz your life went in the direction of your panet rejection reveals not only does rejection reveal it reacts the reaction of rejection sometimes a devil how you doing stuff you know what let me stop there cuz that's gonna be a mystery sometimes you do stuff your name ain't Flip Wilson the devil ain't made you do nothing it'd be you sometimes I get in preaching language and talk about the enemy but the enemy is the enemy sometimes it'd be you with show negative self come on holla at your boy it'd be you I ain't going through what my mama went through he said that's what I say he only been he see people I love honest people you say that ain't gonna let nobody talk to me like they talk to my mama ain't gonna let nobody hit on me like I saw them hit on my mom hang on let nobody do me like I saw them do and then you get it because you expected it when we are rejected we tend to focus our attention on the immediate hurt and will led to it so much that we are likely to lose our perspective and overreact to what happened who's guilty of overreacting she said over everything everything she said Reverend over everything just just every time but she's honest any over-reactive oh you ain't speak to me well we ain't friends pain why you gotta murder the whole relationship maybe I didn't see you maybe I got laryngitis Shane liked my picture I knew that heifer one for me how they looked on Instagram and she doesn't like that girl picture and she ain't like minds she and even compliment my outfit in my head what kind of friend supposed to be my homeboy didn't even tell me congratulations on the car now him he just he jealous of me bro that's because you won't remove the veil that's because you have a definition of what people ought to do and you're gonna have to remove the veil and you're gonna have to understand that sometimes other people have bad days and sometimes they don't feel like speaking and sometimes they don't have it and that's why I don't like people to say their relationships are 50/50 relationships are not 50/50 relationships or whatever I have and whatever you got and we'll meet somewhere in the middle so sometimes you got ten I'll bring 90 sometimes you got 70 I'll bring thirty but whatever you don't have I'll pick up the slack that's what a relationship is it is not 50/50 I don't always have 50% to bring sometimes I got to bring a hundred because you might be at zero and if you had a zero i'ma pick you up and I'm gonna cover you in my secret place if there's one thing I know how to do I know how to cover my friends I will cover my friends to the end I will cover my friends and I won't let you shoot them I won't let you kill them I'll see them duro I'll tell him you're deer row and cover them in front of you and tell them they did nothing wrong god bless us with some people who will cover us some artists a guy send me somebody who really got my back and who won't stab in it send me somebody go God sent them some employees they won't leave the next time somebody off from 5 cents more send me somebody who won't leave me because I lost my job send me somebody who won't leave me because I gained a few pounds send me somebody who won't leave me when I go through menopause send me somebody who won't leave me when I have to turn the car back and downsize the house for a dream so we can bounce back send me somebody Oh send me somebody who won't look at me funny just because I'm having a bad day because I lost my temper once in a while send me somebody who understands that we all fall short but rejection reacts we don't give God a chance to do it because we're reacting all the time stand still and see the salvation of the Lord your rejection is causing you have a reaction which is now interfering with your results Mike write that down so I can say that in the second service what else yo rejection is causing you to have a reaction that's interfering with your results no over react all the time sometimes you need to under yet and let me tell you ain't none dangerous dinner under reactor how many y'all know somehow they do something like I rather you come in call me and scratch me a pup Oh Lord Jesus what's about to happen gee I remember one time Felicia and I we got married and and we were married six months at this time we had a little one-bedroom apartment off of highway 6 and I got tired of Felicia first lady I said get out of my house a one-bedroom apartment with nothing in it look hot look out dumb I ain't got nothing in and I'm up there talking like we're in the mess and get out she probably like thank you you can keep everything in here too some of y'all know what I'm talking about an angle I ain't gonna get into it a little Martin Lawrence humor but y'all are getting when you get home run tell that butt so I would say get out this girl went in the living room and sat on the floor Indian style I didn't hear the dough clothes I looked around the corner she was sitting on the floor I said what you doing is she said I ain't going nowhere I said Lord this girl crazy I wouldn't the bathroom said father cuz they ain't nothin more frightening than the person who under reacts the devil no you ain't gonna do none because you're always overreacting he's not threatened because you're always overreacting what does the devil gonna do with you when he attacks you and you don't respond and that you go down on your knees and you start praying and you don't get on Facebook and start typing because there is a language that confuses the enemy sometimes you have to just as they say steal away how many y'all been in terms not gonna have to hear that before you got to steal away you got a steady yourself you just got to go and say God you know me they don't I need you to get in between me and now because it's gonna be me and now and mostly me so God I need you since you know your rejection reacts do you have a plant do you have a pre-planned negotiation with yourself so that you can talk yourself cane out of murder you got to have a script full of scriptures y'all plan I'm seriously you need to know what to say to yourself you need to know how to handle yourself and you got to practice it who said that greater is He that is in me whatever it is whatever you got to say to yourself you better learn because you will murder Abel and be rejected by God it's not your fault but it is your result and you can do something different about what happened to you and you don't have to respond according to how you feel and you don't always have to say what you think in the name of being honest sometimes it's called being ignant I'm just like that I'm just honest I just say well so much you don't always have to say it honesty is not always verbal is this helping anybody look can I tell you something in these last 3 minutes here's the good news here is the good news even though rejection is revealed and it reacts rejection always rebounds can you all put Hebrews chapter 11 verse 4 on the screen let me show you how rejection rebounds Hebrews chapter 11 verse 4 the Bible basically says in Hebrews chapter 11 verse 4 says there came by faith had given a more excellent sacrifice than his brother and even though his brother did kill him watch this he obtained the witness that he was righteous from God testifying of his gifts and by it he is being dead yet speaketh one translation says yet he still speaks from the ground so even though he has been slain even though he has been killed he hasn't been silenced yet he still speaks yet he still speaks in other words yet he still has a testimony that no weapon formed against him god help me in this church was able to prosper and and I play basketball for a little bit so obviously when I heard the word rebound it got me to thinking most times and anybody ever played basketball whenever you hear the word rebound this is what comes to our mind we get the ball right Jessica you play ball it just means that we get the ball and I did I never thought that if I shoot the ball and it doesn't hit the rim it's not a rebound I played all my life I'm on my plate I've been playing basketball since the third grade I went to college and played Division one basketball I got paid to play basketball my whole life I just defined a rebound as getting the ball from the other team but if he shoots the ball and it doesn't hit the rim it's not a rebound it's an air ball I still get the ball but that's called a change of possession it's only a rebound after it has been shot and missed and bounced off of something it's only a rebound because the rim rejected it in this place and when the rim rejects it then somebody who wants it gets in position to rebound it so when sin shot me and God rejected me he put Jesus in position and Jesus said I'll take it and the reason why I can do it is because I know what it feels like because I was the rejected stone and now I'm the chief Cornerstone I speak a word in your life that for every miss every attack every insecurity that's about to change your position slap somebody and say God is about to change your position [Music] [Music] I'm done see you only you have to go through it what they went through to know why they feel the way they feel some of them somebody is right next to you and the church close knows deep down inside what it's like to be hurt by somebody you never hurt I understand that this was consequence but I can't understand it when it's an incident says Abel if he could talk his brother what did I ever do to you I mean how do we go from playing in the yard to you cutting me by the neck how we end up here how we get here we will never know but we do know it came all out of the fact that came felt rejected and hurting people hurt people you gonna have to solve your issues you have to face it you got to stop blaming everybody here's got to say you know what I ain't over it yet it's not walking around moping and silent don't say nothing and then when somebody come actually was wrong you say nothing just come out and say I am still pissed y'all forgive my language but the bible does talk about the man that pissed off at the gate so i'm not saying nothin that's not in the scripture y'all too sensitive it's in the Bible I'm still mad as Hades if you don't back up out of my face now don't say that on this kid honesty like get it out for real the problem with most of us is we only talking arguments it'll work if you start a conversation sit down at the table and say here it is let me just tell you I ain't been able to get over this and then once you admit that you haven't been able to get over it then you have to release them because not-it's no longer their fault now you're gonna have to deal with you and it's amazing how many people are able to deal with everybody else but they have not yet figure out how to deal with themself so you want me to gain the strength today to never hurt you again but you can't gain the strength today to forgive me for what I did it's gonna take both of us time so if you need time to get over your hurt it may take me time to get over my sin see see how that how that doesn't even register some people's mind cuz it ain't reality for some of us but everybody deserves a chance I want to pray for you today because I know I know deep down in my heart that this word was for just about everybody in this room so this is what I want to do if God sent you here today and you say I want to connect with this ministry I'm gonna do I want to do two things I'm gonna do it in five minutes I want to connect with this ministry I want to give my life to Christ I wouldn't serve here I want to go here I want to raise my children here in the next three weeks I'm gonna give you an announcement that's gonna blow your mind about what God's gonna do in this place just gonna blow your mind you want to get in while the getting is good if you're here today just find one of these people one of our lighthouse connection team members and just go to him say I want to connect with this church just find them wherever you are come on god bless come on lighthouses make it a big deal [Applause] [Music] to take I binge [Music] Oh y'all make it a big deal [Music] [Music] of all that go
