today i just want to pray that god would

speak to us

i’ve been i’ve been listening to this

song that says speak to my heart lord

give me your holy word

if i can’t hear from you

then i’ll know what to do see i

won’t go alone this is a little old

school but

i’ll never go on my own

just let your spirit guide

and let your word abide speak to

my heart lord some of y’all got it hey

so give me your holy word

if i can’t hear from you

then i know what to do i

won’t go alone i’m in an arena by myself

right now

so i’ll never go on my own i feel it

just let your spirit guide hey

and just let your word about one more

time speak to

choir right now

just let your spirit guide

and let your word abide speak

to my heart father i thank you that you

would speak to everybody’s hearts come

on hands lifted all over this building

all over your house god speak to our

hearts in the name of jesus

nobody knows how to get to our hearts

like you do

and today god i’m asking that you would

penetrate areas

that have been locked up because of hurt

because of pain because of frustration

because father god maybe we didn’t have

instruction father i’m thanking you that

you will speak

directly to people’s hearts habits don’t

change if hearts don’t change and god we

need you to change our heart

we’ve been dealing with the symptoms and

the fruit but we need you to deal with

the root today

so as we start relationship goals

reloaded i thank you that you would

speak to our hearts god don’t let us

just feel good god

let us transform do a work on the inside

of us

and we’ll be careful to give you all the

glory all the honor

and all the praise in jesus name i dare

you to clap your hands

in your house in your kitchen oh magnify

the lord

with me let’s exalt his name together

hallelujah i’m ready

all right are y’all ready put ready in

the comments if you’re all ready because

i’m telling you i’m reloaded

i don’t know every time i say reloaded i

feel like i have to do that sound like

i’m reloaded

all right and i want you to get out

notes

because we are starting week two

of a series we’re calling help me

relationship goals

reload it you you forgot the the

the sound effects you got i’m gonna give

you one more chance today we’re starting

week

two of a series we’re calling

relationship

goals reloaded help me all right there

we go

i felt you i felt you do it on that one

and um

i thought last week we learned about the

principles of god

being the guide for all of our

relationships

we learned that if we’re going to do

what god has called us to do

in in and have the relationship god’s

called us to have

we need to set the word of god the

manual the maker’s mind

as the principal thing in all of our

relationships

and the thing that i’m burdened with is

that so many people want relationship

goals but they have no aim and until we

get

aim we can never reach the goals that

god

has intended for us so this entire

series i don’t care how you got here if

somebody sent you the link

or your boyfriend was like we can’t say

no more unless we listen to a

relationship god’s

reloaded together like whatever reason

you’re here right now

i want you to know it’s on purpose

because

god wants to divinely aim you in the

direction

of the things that are real relationship

goals

and last week i didn’t have no filter on

and i saw y’all on twitter they they

said we was twin

we were twittering we were trending on

twitter

i’m all good with that but are you

transforming in real life

like i got to make sure that we’re not

just trending and we’re not transforming

because we can trend and type all the

quotes but if we don’t get it in our

heart

and start applying some of these things

and walking in knowledge remember what

we talked about last week

that knowledge means light okay

and and darkness means ignorance

and a lot of things in our life we are

walking

in darkness in especially when it comes

to relationships

and nobody showed us we don’t have a

playbook we’re watching celebrities and

culture

and they’re defining what relationships

are and they keep not working because

it’s done

in darkness but when we get light when

we get knowledge

and y’all remember jesus is the light of

the world when we get his perspective

or his principles or his mind on

relationships we start walking in light

it’s harder to see when you’re in the

dark but it’s easy to

look over and step over what may trip

you up when you have light

and what we want for all of your

relationship is the light to come on

for you and be able to see that uh

about to call people’s name for you to

be able to see that he

or she may be something you’re tripping

over

that the goal of success that you think

that you’re supposed to have may be

something you’re tripping over and you

might be tripping just because you’re in

the dark

but through this series by faith we’re

gonna shine everybody shot at me liked

come on put some light bulbs in the

comments that’s what we want we want

light to come on

we want you to win in relationship

because the lights are coming on

this thing keeps going to sleep i i know

kane doesn’t stop the word today

and and so this is what i’m encouraging

everybody in this moment right now

is that if you are in a place of

relational darkness

because i don’t know i don’t know who

you are and what’s going on but if

you’re in a place of relational darkness

right now i feel like god told me

that that he wants to change

every relationship in your life because

you chose the relationships in the dark

listen to me if you feel like you’re in

relational darkness right now

god told me to tell you that every

relationship around you was about to

change

even the ones you call your besties and

your buddy and all of those different

things like that it’s about to change

because you pick those relationships in

the dark

and there’s some people that are right

now as you would like oh that’s good

i am married to you i’m about to get rid

of you nope you’re stuck

so everybody that’s married right now

you don’t get to choose

another partner right now you’re going

to change enough

to be able to look at the situation

differently and you’re going to become

what you want out of them oh i just said

a whole bunch and god said that the

light

is coming on i feel that charles the

light is coming

on and i begin to think about this

concept

of being transformed by the light of

god’s knowledge and making his

principles

the thing that are first in our life

when it comes to relationships and then

i had this weird situation happen this

week

you know me and pastor natalie have been

doing all these interviews and talking

to people

and and being on national tv and all

this other stuff like that talking about

relationship goals

and somebody asked her a question that

kind of threw me for a loop

which is the um the the infancy of the

message today that i think is going to

change your life

they asked pastor natalie oh my goodness

you guys have been married 10 years and

this then the third was um pastor

michael everything on your list

was he everything on your list and i i

felt the hesitation in my wife’s voice

i felt a little clearing of the throat

and i stepped back and i said let me see

what’s she about to say right here

yes natalie was i everything on your

list

and you know me and natalie we leave a

hot um relationship humble open and

transparent

and she said no he actually wasn’t

anything on my list

i said this helpful than gone on

national tv

and told them that i wasn’t her

relationship goal she said i thought

my list had somebody who was tall and

muscular

and and more hispanic puerto rican green

i said you wanted to be married to uh

what’s his name derek jeter

or uh or a-rod huh this what you got

baby

and i begin to think about it that

that the list she had was made up out of

her imagination

and and all of us have some type of list

a list for our relationship the list for

our business

the list for what time we should get

married and when we should be able to

build the house and

when we’re going to have kids we have

these lists

and what god told me is that i am not a

god of your list

he told me he said michael many of my

children are disappointed

in relationships because they have made

their list

and they’re asking me to be santa claus

to be the

tooth fairy would you please since i’ve

been nice and not

naughty will you please give me my list

uh oh i’m in somebody’s house right now

and god says i am not the god of the

list

and and and so he gave me this title and

i need everybody to buckle up right now

because i’m going to say something very

strong

and and very direct but i think it’s

going to change your life

the title of today’s sermon is rip up

your list

every list you’ve made without god every

list that came out of your imagination

but had no faith attached of it to it

i’m telling you

today you have to decide to rip up your

list

oh i feel this thing right now see we

need a revelation

of relationships but the thing that’s

working against

god being preeminent or

in our lives is that we’ve already made

a life without him

we’ve already wrote down in our journal

what we want and when we want it and how

we want it

and it begins to work against what god

has for us

because he’s thinking of the purpose he

put us here for and we’re thinking of

the pleasure

we want to experience and god says your

list and my list will never match

i know some people are frustrated don’t

log off right now

because what you need to understand is

the list you’ve made and somebody’s like

well i’ve never made a list yeah yeah

there’s lists in your mind even if you

haven’t written them down

that you’ve said i’ll only work with

people like this you’ve put stipulations

and circumstances

i’ll only get married when this happens

we’ve made inner vows

we’ve told ourselves this is what we’re

going to do this is how we’re going to

do it

this is the age we’re going to do it by

and it is one of the greatest sources of

frustration for people

is because god does not line up with

what he didn’t line

out he didn’t line out that course for

your life

but you’re frustrated now because your

plan didn’t line up

with what’s actually happening

and today through the word of god i’m

going to encourage you

to rip up your list let me give you the

definition that i made up

of the list see see the list is the

thing that oh i want him to be six six i

want him to have a job that pays him

good

i want him to be able to take care of me

cook salmon

and be able to have at least the six

pack that was your list

and you sitting there with elmer fudd

and no i’m just playing

but some of y’all that’s reality um well

i want her to be able

to laugh at all my jokes and she likes

sports but

also loves makeup and she does this and

does that

and we make all of these lists and god

told me today

he said i would like to revise every

list that has ever been made without me

i would i would like to call a redo

to the situation and to your life

in relationship look at the definition

of the list

it’s a set prede a set of predetermined

self-fabricated ideals of a specific

person

situation or outcome that was written

down

continually thought about or verbally

communicated

by which erroneous expectations

become goals for achievement let me

break it down

it’s the stuff that we said was gonna

happen with

no grounding just because we felt it

i saw something on tv and be like yo i’m

gonna build my dream house by the time

i’m 24

and you start saying that over and over

and over and over and over again

to where it becomes an erroneous

expectation

in your life and when it doesn’t happen

by the time you’re 24

then you’re looking at god like i

thought you said you was with me

i thought you said if you before me then

who can be against me he said i didn’t

plan that

you you made up and put that on your

list

and i was nowhere in that and that’s

where i’m coming to challenge you

because some of you are discontent in

the season you’re in right now

not because god stopped doing what he

said he was going to do it’s because you

thought you would be somewhere else that

god never promised you would be

ah they don’t want this they don’t want

this today y’all

but i’m gonna give it to you anyway

because i’m reloaded and somebody is

supposed to win in relationships

but if god’s purpose for your life is

going to be preeminent you have to take

away everything you built without him

rip up the list somebody put it in the

comments rip up your list come on

let me give you a reason why you should

rip up your list

you rip up your list because your list

for you

will never look like god’s list for you

your list of factors of what you

want like like like let me break it down

when you make a list of how you want

your relationships to be

your life to be your family to be

your list factors in what you want

when god makes a list of how he wants

your life to be

how he wants your family to be how he

has designed

your relationships to be he factors in

what you need and many of us never pick

what we need we pick what we want

see natalie wanted some puerto rican

green eyed something

but what she got was a fine tall of milk

chocolate you hear me not because it’s

what she wanted

i was what she needed the job that

you’re working out right now it may not

be what you wanted

but your character needs to be developed

some more so god gave you what you

needed some of y’all are

are mad because you were born into the

family that you were born

into but what i’m telling you is that

may have not been the family you wanted

but something that was birthed in the

pain that you went through

was what you needed for the purpose

that god has called you to i’m just

getting started

see when we make up fabricated standards

based on our feelings no prayer

no prophetic insight no word from god

just feelings

yeah before i get turned 40 i’m going to

be retired

where did that come from

where did you make that up at oh no no

no i’m gonna run my own business next

year and that was five years ago

and you’re frustrated in this moment

because you have personally

fabricated up things and never went to

god for it

the reason why i’m bringing this in the

second week of relationship goals is

because i think that this is one of the

main reasons

why relationships do not work out and

why they break down

is because of fabricated expectations of

somebody else

you put it on your list that they would

be athletic you put it on their list

that they would be emotional you put it

on your list that they would be able to

understand your childhood scars and that

y’all would like the same thing

and all these things you put on your

list were made by you

and not co-signed by god

and so god says when i present to you

what you actually

need you mad you big mad

because my way for you the bible says

is not the way you would choose but

that’s where trust comes in

and that’s why i believe some people

have to rip up their list and i see

people right now

you’re frustrated with where you are in

life i know you’re frustrated with the

relationships that you have you’re

frustrated

with the way that business is going but

i’m going to teach you something that

changed my life

it’s the formula of frustration can i

tell it to you right now

write this down you don’t want to miss

this this will change your children’s

children

the formula of frustration is fabricated

expectations plus failed reality

equals feelings of frustration so you

make up stuff you don’t even tell nobody

like you make up like my 30th birthday

is gonna be the turn up of the century i

promise you we turning up

and you make this fabricated expectation

and then the reality is your birthday

was in the middle of a pandipi

let’s be real cause that’s the reality

people are living right now

my birthday gonna be to turn up i’m

telling everybody i’m turning up

oh oh okay and the reality is

my birthday’s in the middle of a

pandemic and now you have feelings of

frustration

not because you didn’t have people

around you who appreciated you and they

did things for you and they sent you

cards and they sent you text messages

and if you didn’t have this fabricated

expectation you could have appreciated

what was actually there

but instead because you made something

up that was not supposed to be there

now you’re feeling frustrated and

downtrodden in this thing it’s time for

you to rip up the list

and i don’t care what area of your life

it is it can be in relationships this

message is coming for everybody

it can be in your marriage it can be in

your business it can be

in any area it’s time to go back to what

god is saying

because too many people are feeling

frustrated but i need to let you know

something about god and

this this may be the thing you don’t

like but it’s the thing you need to hear

right now

the reason you have to rip up your lips

take this down is because god is more

committed to your destiny

than he is to your desires

he’s more committed to the destiny he

sent you here for

than your own desires and this is where

people be like i didn’t like that

christianity thing anyway i got to get

out of here

but i wish somebody would have told me

this because i spent many years of my

christian life

quoting scriptures wrong because i know

somebody’s like uh

i’m looking it up right now i know the

bible says that god will give you the

desires of your heart i know that’s in

there somewhere

oh baby you heard somebody say that and

you didn’t actually read the scripture

let me take you to the scripture and

give you revelation that the bible does

say

something like that but let me give you

the context psalms 37 verse 4

it says delight yourself

in the lord and he will give you the

desires

of your heart let me give you the

passage remix

okay when you choose to put yourself

in the lord when you choose to put your

plans

in the lord when you choose to put your

relationships

in the lord when you choose to put your

business plans

in the lord then it says he will give

your heart

what it should desire not he’s gonna

give you everything that’s already in

your heart that’s ugly and is not like

him he gonna give you your heart’s

desire

he said when you get surrounded by my

will

my idea for you when you get in

accountability and you know because

what’s in our heart is bad

the bible tells us that the heart is

more deceitful than anything

the stuff i naturally want without god

is selfish

it’s self-serving it’s prideful and god

says that’s why you got to come out of

yourself

and you got to get in me and when you

delight yourself

in the lord he says i’ll change the

things in your heart and

you’ll start wanting the things i want

for you

you’ll go from wanting money and you

want to be effective

you want to you want to go you’ll go

from wanting to be

um impressive to impactful

see he’ll start to how do you know

pastor mike this is my life

when i was a younger man and i thought i

was gonna be

diddy or kanye or somebody like that i

wanted it

for what it made me feel like if you

would have told me that a million people

would be following me on anything that

would have gone straight to my head

that would have gone straight to blow up

the sting that i was doing and so god

said let me take you

the humble route let me let me get you

in

me let me let me transition you from the

music industry and all this other stuff

and let me let you start off serving a

bunch of youth who don’t even know

if they want god let me let me help you

work with them through their 14 and 13

year old problems

and you got to sit there for an hour and

a half and really care about it and take

it home and pray for them and then pray

for their parents

why don’t you get in me and when you get

in me

i’ll start to change your desires i went

from saying i’d never be on a platform

to saying god i never ever want to be

without a platform

to be able to give your name glory what

was that he was

changing my heart’s desires and giving

me what to desire i don’t know who i’m

talking to right now

but some of your stuff you’ve been

desiring things that was not

in the lord and god’s saying rip up that

list

tear that thing up because i’m telling

you when you get

my desires for you you will live the

life

that you’re really searching for the

reason why it’s not working

and you still feel unfulfilled is

because it was never meant to fill you

up

unless it came from the source

let me stop and that’s why proverbs 19

21 says

read this one it says many of the plans

in a person’s heart many i mean all of

us got plans

all of us let me say it another way all

of us got lists

all of us got things we put in our

calendar by this time i would have this

and

i’d be having this many kids by now and

me and my family would be doing this we

all got plans but look what it says

but it’s the lord’s purpose

that prevails

i came to a place where i ripped up my

list

of being this world-renowned music

producer and having millions of dollars

by the time i was 25

and doing i ripped up all of those lists

because i was fighting a losing battle

he said you can go ahead and keep doing

all of that

but at the end of the day my purpose

will prevail

that’s why you see all these rappers and

artists at the end of their life

they all become christians like no come

on let’s be honest like

everybody’s vh1 behind the scenes it’s

like i’ve been running for god for 39

years

and today i’m a pastor of first

ebeneezer gangster church and

i just why is that because at the end of

the day you can do

all of this and it takes from you

but the lord’s purpose will prevail

somebody needs to hear that right now

keep going and chasing all the kitty cat

out there keep going and trying to get

everybody to like you

but god says at some point you’re going

to get tired and at some point it won’t

work for you no more and at some point

my purpose will prevail oh

somebody needs to hear me why are you

talking that wrong pastor mike cause i’m

hoping to shake you

out of those cycles you’ve been in it’s

time for you to whip the

i need somebody to if this is your list

it’s time to

rip the list i need somebody to hear me

in the i don’t care if it’s in your

relationship i don’t care

if it’s in your family god is saying

i need you to trust me cause

i’m god and at the end of the day my

purpose

will prevail

and that’s why we rip up our list write

this down you need to rip up your list

because a god dream is never created

based on your preference

a god dream is created based on your

purpose

so when god sits down to make you he

doesn’t say

let me see what they want let me let me

throw in

some he says what have i purposed them

for

okay so if i’ve purposed them to bring

my name glory in this area

what is the path that i’m going to take

them on and how am i going to get them

there and what relationships

do i need and this is the thing god

built within all of us

the greatest thing he gave us was choice

and that’s why

when we get a plan from god we still

have

the choice to be able to obey the plan

of god

or to go our own way and that’s why i’m

trying to encourage you right now

because i wish somebody would have got

up

in front of me when i was a little

younger and said might rip up the list

you don’t want what’s on that list you

want what god wants for you

because in what god wants for you is

true fulfillment and what god wants for

you you don’t have to strive for it you

can stride

into it and what god has for you there’s

actual satisfaction

and a god dream is never created based

on your preference

a god dream is created based on your

purpose and if you want to talk about

dreams there’s no way we can talk about

dreams without talking about joseph

let’s look at genesis chapter 37.

because y’all remember joseph

with the code of many colors some of us

have missed this story

because he had a dream or he probably

had a list of how he thought his life

was going to go

because god gave him this very vivid

dream look at it it said jacob loved

joseph more than any of his other

children

because joseph had been born to him in

his old age

so one day jacob had a special gift made

for joseph it was a versace jacket

a beautiful robe but his brothers hated

joseph

because their father loved him more than

the rest of them

they couldn’t say a kind word to him one

note night

joseph had a dream the same way all of

us have dreams

one night joseph had a dream

and when he told his brothers he said we

were out in the field

tying up bundles of grade and suddenly a

bundle stood up

and i don’t know what this really meant

but it was like and your bundles all

gathered around

and bowed low y’all dropped it low to

to to my bundle and his brother said

fool

so you think you gonna be our king this

boy

lost his mind you think we gonna bow to

you do you actually think you will reign

over us

and they hated him all the more because

of the dream

and the way he talked about him talked

about them

see when i think about joseph having a

dream

he had a dream that he was going to be a

king or he was going to be in the palace

and so i want to show you this this is

like many of our lives joseph’s

list probably looks something like this

it’s

it’s gonna be a dream that i have and

then

i’m gonna get support from my family and

my brothers and the people that are

around me

and then i mean opportunities are going

to open up

and and this is how my list is going to

go and then promotion is going to come

and then i’m going to end up in the

palace

but if you read through the next four

chapters of genesis

what happens to joseph is what happens

to many of our lives

is that we have a list and a preferred

way that we would want it to go and we

made up for it to go

but then we have our list and then we

have real life

and joseph’s real life was he had a

dream

but then he was betrayed by his brothers

he was sold into slavery

he was thrown into prison and then

he still got the palace

uh hold on hold on wait wait wait wait

wait wait i thought my dream

was gonna be something that everything

in the dream was gonna be easy and

linear

and promotion and up up up up and then i

would reach the palace

but joseph’s real life didn’t look like

his real list

and some of y’all are in here and you’re

mad because your real life doesn’t look

like your real list

but i came to encourage you today you

can rip up the list

because if god is with you and you are

going through something right now you

still can reach your

palace let me say it a different way

because because i i need to talk to some

people

who feel like their dream has dropped

see um the reason we got to rip up our

list is because

joseph started out with the dream and

and again

then he went and he thought he was going

to go to the palace

so so so i want you to picture like

these two extremes these highs

okay and when we get these highs in our

life and

we think there’s there’s this this thing

that’s about to happen and everything’s

gonna go from glory to glory but then

the dream drops

and joseph literally goes from the dream

to literally being thrown into a pit

his brothers sold them into slavery and

threw him into a pit

and in the middle between the dream and

the palace he experienced betrayal

slavery and prison

tesla mike why are you talking to us

about ripping up a list and being in the

pit because this is where a lot of y’all

relationships

are and have been and i came to

encourage you today

that just because your relationship is

in the pit does not mean that it’s over

just because you’ve been divorced two

times and now you’re trying to start on

another list without god

maybe rip up your list because god has a

plan for you

that is bigger than this what you need

to know is the path to the palace

many times passes through the pit

i’m preaching up here right now so so

you started off with a dream and you

started off with your list

and you started off with the

relationship that was supposed to last

that’s what happened to me and pastor

natalie high school sweethearts

and i went through 10 months of insanity

and perversion

and cheating and lying and it took

us being with god that still delivered

us to a place of a palace

where we were able to help other

marriages but we did not get there

going some smooth route the bottom

dropped out of that thing

and when we had nothing else we had to

trust in god

we had to rip up our list and there’s

people watching i feel the presence of

god

right now that have been through

divorces that have been through

infidelity

that have been heartbroken that have

been hurt

whose kids have walked away and business

partners took advantage

and you are feeling stuck right now

because you went through the betrayal

and you went through the thing that

seemed like slavery

and you went through the thing that felt

feels like prison

but god says if you rip up your list

i can use all of that to still deliver

you to the palace to the place where

your purpose

is fulfilled and i think that some

people need to hear this in the room

right now

that’s why psalms 23 4 david writes

yea though i walk through the valley of

the shadow of death

see that pit put it back on the screen

the pit is a valley

i was going good and then it dropped off

but god says even when you’re in the

valley i’m walking with you

even when you’re at the low place i’m

with you you don’t have to fear

because i am with you

the truth is joseph wouldn’t have picked

betrayal

he had to rip up his list because what

god was going to

allow him to go through would not have

been something he picked on his list

none of us would pick betrayal none of

us would pick kovit 19.

did anybody write that down on your year

playing this year

did anybody put that on your dream board

i want to start january off

really strong and then i want to get in

the word in

uh february and then i want to meet my

man in march

and then i don’t want to see him again

until next august

nobody nobody picked it but god’s using

it

he’s using it to develop you he’s using

it to expose what you really trust

he’s using it come on y’all somebody

needs to put in the comments he’s using

it he’s using it he’s using it

he wouldn’t have they wouldn’t have

picked they wouldn’t have put that on

their list

me and natalie wouldn’t have put autism

for our son on our list

there’s no way i would have wrote down

what i want for my son

is so what happens

when you get a dream and god gives you

the son or gives you something and then

the bottom drops out

i didn’t put it on my list i did i

didn’t i didn’t want this

but i got it and what happens when it

doesn’t look like what i thought

and many of you i feel this so strong

you are so mad at god and he can’t even

speak to your heart anymore

because you are so frustrated over a

list you made

that did not come to reality it was

fabricated it was

ideal it was a fantasy and when it

didn’t happen

it devastated you so much that now you

can’t hear when god’s trying to heal

your heart and he’s trying to bring

people into your life to help you

and you’re so jaded and so broken and so

anti and god’s saying today i’m begging

you i sent this big black man sweaty and

all black with his wife on his shirt

to beg you to rip up your list

right now i want you to take everything

that you put as

an erroneous expectation and say god

i’m ripping it up this is no longer what

i will hold myself

or anybody else to can we rewrite

what the purpose looks like in my life

can we rewrite what success is in my

family

can we real come on y’all can we rewrite

cause i’m tired of being frustrated

and i feel like i’m in the pit and i’ve

been comparing myself to everybody

else’s instagram feed

and they’re getting married and they’re

having a baby and they’re moving into

their dream home

and today i have been frustrated and

discontent

because i made a list but by the power

of the holy spirit

it’s not going to be easy but today i’m

ripping up the list

i feel this thing right now somebody say

rip it up

somebody needs to rip up the list

joseph now gets sold into slavery in

genesis 37 verse 23

and literally it says so when just gen

um when joseph arrived

his brothers ripped that’s crazy

his brothers ripped off the beautiful

robe

this was a metaphoric sign of what was

happening to any list that he thought

bible will preach itself you hear what

i’m saying to you

they literally ripped off the path that

he thought he was going to be the thing

that represented his favor

it said his brothers ripped off the

beautiful robe he was wearing

then they grabbed him and threw him into

the pit

put it back up there i liked that up

there because somebody’s seeing it right

now

they ripped him ripped it off and they

threw him in the pit so when the

ishmaelites

who were midianite traitors came by

joseph’s brothers verse 28 go to verse

28.

um it said they pulled them out of the

cistern

now this messes me up every time i i

don’t have enough time to do this but

he gets thrown in by people and then a

few hours later those same people come

and they act like they’re helping him

out

what what does it feel like to have the

people who betrayed you

betray you come back and act like it’s

all good

but the only reason they were pulling

him up out of the cistern was to sell

him out again

they threw him in they pulled him up and

look what it says and they sold him

for 20 pieces of silver and trade and

and the traders took him to egypt

look at verse 36 drop down meanwhile the

many night traders arrived in egypt

where they sold joseph to potiphar so he

was sold again

an officer in pharaoh officer for

pharaoh

the king of egypt potiphar was a captain

of the palace guard

now for most of us this would be it

our attitude would be so bad at this

point

where is god he ain’t real he gave me a

dream

and now i’ve been betrayed by the people

who are closest to me and y’all know

that’s where betrayal really happens

it’s the people that are closest to you

the people who know who you really are

but they use that against you like

it’s that that’s where the relationship

holes are see we’re talking about

relationship goals

but a lot of us are dealing with

relationship holes and that’s why we

keep getting in wrong relationships

because we’re expecting people that

don’t know us to fulfill things

that happen to us from people who are

supposed to love us and the truth is the

only person that can fix it

is not the offender or the person coming

in it’s the god who created you

and so and so he comes into this point

like what in the heck i

i was just coming to help my brothers

out i got sold out

and then sold into slavery i got moved

from what was comfortable

into a foreign land how is

god using this and that’s where somebody

is right now

but the reason why you want to take your

little list of everything that you

thought was supposed to happen

and you want to just start slowly

ripping it up

it’s because every betrayal is not bad

some betrayals are a blessing you missed

it

see if the betrayal wouldn’t have

happened

joseph wouldn’t end it up in egypt let

me give it to you in a point

rip up your list because the betrayal

wasn’t meant to break you

the betrayal was allowed to take you

it was allowed to take you to your next

destination that you would have not gone

to

had it not been some hurt involved some

of us are so

comfortable i’m talking to people right

now that god has to

allow hurt to move you from your home

some of y’all are so good with being in

a mediocre relationship

that god has to allow their true colors

to come out

for you to be put on blast enough to

move out of that situation

god uses the pain of betrayal

many times not as a thing that is

supposed to break you it’s a thing

that’s supposed to take you

take you to the place you wouldn’t go on

your own

what would have made joseph leave his

dad his favor

and go to egypt nothing because he was

in a comfortable spot where he was

favored but god said your purpose for

the purpose i have for you

is so much bigger than being comfortable

in this little space

i want to make you comfortable in a big

space do you want it even if betrayal is

a part of the plan

see that’s the thing we don’t want that

on our list

we don’t want people walking out on us

we won’t we don’t want to be furloughed

from our job

do y’all know i’m gonna just go ahead

and say it cordell cause i’m here and

i’m they listening

some of y’all corona

was the thing god had to allow

to get you out of that job

no i know you don’t i know for some of

y’all this pandemic was allowed

and they furloughed you to see your kids

again

no no i know you’ve been providing for

them but you haven’t seen them

you don’t know the stages of life

they’re in and what they’re struggling

with and now that you’re in their house

and you see that their face is always

down in the phone and you ask what are

you looking at

this is the first time you’ve seen your

kids in 10 years

see what god’s trying to do is he’s

thinking about everything with your

purpose in mind

not your preference in mind and joseph

had to go through betrayal

because many times the worst revel the

worst relational devastation

is many times god’s vehicle of

transportation

and this is what i’m encouraging you you

to do because i’ve had a lot of failures

i know it looks like pastor might be

winning all the time on instagram

but but your boy’s had a lot of failures

in my life over the past

decade and what i have learned to do i’m

about to give you a key

to ripping up your list you have to

always look for god’s

favor in the failure look

for god’s i know it hurts i know you

never thought this would happen

i know this was not a part of the plan

this wasn’t a part of the dream

this wasn’t on my list but god says i’ll

leave hints of my favor

in every failure look

look look what he did he left hints of

his favor

for joseph in the failure he’s now

sold to slavery in potiphar’s house

his brothers have sold him out he ends

up in egypt

and look what happens in genesis chapter

39

verse 2. it says and the lord was

with joseph what

hold on i just got betrayed

and put into slavery and the first thing

that the bible records

is god was with him in the midst of the

failure god is with you

in the midst of the pain god is with you

and see many of us would rather

to be in a good situation without god

but

me i’ll take a bad situation with god

any day of the week

because my bible says if god before me

then who could be against me and that’s

where some of you need to know

that your advantage in the middle of a

bad situation

the reason why you have to rip up your

list even though the last relationship

didn’t work

is because god is still with you

and when you realize that it’s watch

this

it says so he succeeded the lord was

with joseph

so he succeeded the lord was with joseph

so he succeeded

put your name in there the lord was with

michael so he succeeded put do it one

more time the lord was with

say your name so he succeeded in

everything he did

as he watched what he did served hmm

you mean i have to serve in a sucky

situation

you mean i still have to to actually

do and be what god requires me to do and

be

even when it’s not fair joseph was in an

unfair situation miche

and god still required him to do what

was put in him to do

and some of y’all are in an unfair

situation stuff that you didn’t write on

your list

but god said rip the list up because if

you would ever get your eyes on me

and you would serve even in the sucky

situation

it would change the trajectory of

everything that’s going on look at it

it says in everything he did he was

successful because he served in the home

of the egyptian master potiphar noticed

that

he noticed this and realized that the

lord was with joseph there are people

that are watching you in your pit and

they’re gonna realize that god is with

you even though it’s a bad situation

he said this please potiphar so he soon

made

joseph listen his personal attendant he

got an upgrade in the midst of a pit

he put him in charge of the entire

household

and everything he owns from the day

joseph was put

in charge of the master’s household and

property

the lord begin to bless potiphar’s house

watch this

for joseph’s sake there are situations

that are about to be blessed

because you decided in the middle of the

pit when your list got ripped up

that you would still serve you would

still love you would still forgive

you would still show up you would still

encourage in the midst of it and god

says i’ll promote you

in the pit

[Music]

he said all his household affairs ran

smoothly

and his crops and livestock flourished

so potiphar gave joseph

complete administrative responsibility

this don’t sound like a slave to me

this sounds like a boss people are going

to label you slave

and you’re gonna walk around with the

authority of a boss people are gonna say

that you’re not

enough and you’re gonna have the pen

that strokes checks

people uh people are gonna say that

you’re too young

and god’s gonna say i put my hand on you

so whatever pitch you’re in

i feel this right now that’s why you

gotta rip up your list

this is why you can’t be stuck to what

you thought it was gonna be

you have to sell out to what god is

saying it is

it says potiphar gave joseph complete

administrative responsibility over

everything he owned

with joseph there he didn’t worry about

a thing

except was he going to eat chick-fil-a

or popeyes

the reason you got to rip up your list

is because

faithfully serving the season always

produces success i’ll say it again

faithfully serving the season even if it

doesn’t look like

what was on your list well i thought i

would have kids by now

but you’re still single stop wishing you

were somewhere else

and faithfully serve this season rip up

your list

well i thought i would have a business

and i would be running stuff and you’re

still mopping floors for somebody and it

does not feel like god is with you

what i’m telling you is forget where you

thought you would be

and faithfully serve this season rip up

your list

i i this is a prophetic sign right now

somebody need to get some paper in your

house right now

and you need to write your list you can

be specific but what needs to happen for

you

is you need to faithfully serve the

season you’re in if you’re in the season

of singleness faithfully serve that

if you’re the in the season of

infertility faithfully serve right there

if you’re in the season i know it’s hard

and your marriage is not working

faithfully serving this season

because god says if you risk your list

and stop comparing what is to what you

wish it would be

he said i can bring success to you in

that very season

i am preaching up here

see that’s why you have to know that the

relationship goal is not a person it’s

god

that has to be the first relationship

goal that you have

joseph goes into this thing and he

serves his season

i’m gonna have to do a part two to this

is it okay if i do part two put part two

in the comments

because i i feel this thing is so strong

we’re gonna do a part two but i gotta

give you a couple more you all okay

if y’all okay give me okay pastor okay

i’m seeing it right now in the comments

joseph begins to serve his season

and that’s so strong for somebody right

now because even

college graduates

you’re trying to figure out what you’re

about to do and god says serve this

season

there’s people right now that they lost

a loved one

and now all their focus is going to

grieving and hurting and

there’s a time and a season for that but

the enemy would love to keep you in a

trap of that

because that wasn’t on your list i never

thought i would lose my father i never

thought i would lose granny i never

thought

i would lose big big mama i never

thought that this was gonna happen and

it happened

and now i’m in a pit that wasn’t on your

list i wouldn’t have

chosen that but god is encouraging you

i factored in everything that would look

like a failure

i saw it when i called you that’s why i

gave you the dream in the first place

you know some nights i bet when when he

was in slavery

the only thing he could think about was

the dream he had

that god gave him a dream that you’ve

seen yourself

in a place that’s not looking like

relationally what you’re in right now

and god’s saying i know you’re

frustrated because you set

erroneous expectations that i wasn’t in

and your list has been interrupted but

remember

i’m not committed to your desires

i’m committed to your destiny

and that’s what god wants somebody to

hear right now

joseph goes through many more things

i’ll tell you about one more today

joseph doing his thing serving his

season

and then out of the blue i mean if i was

joseph like and i thought i was gonna be

a slave and i’m a boss now

i’m just trying to keep everything cool

just trying to do my job

stay out the way and then he catches a

case with a cougar

you can read the bible i mean y’all got

to read the bible the bible is better

than maury povich it’s better than

netflix

he catches a case with the cougar i’m

gonna prove it to y’all because some of

y’all be like that is not the truth yes

it is

look at it in genesis 39 verse 6. joseph

was very handsome

and well built just like your boy and

potiphar’s wife

soon began to look at him lustfully you

nasty little cougar

come and sleep with me son

that’d be disgusting if somebody says

sleep with me son

that’s horrible she demanded

but joseph refused to look now i want

you to see

his commitment i want you to see this

she said sleep with me he said i’m not

even looking

so many people are trying to figure out

what the line of sin

is what the line is and god says i need

you to rip

up that list too i want you to be above

reproach

she says sleep with me he’s not standing

there naked like are you serious are you

what are you what do you mean what do

you mean like many of us would be

sitting up in the room like hold on i

don’t know is comfortable laying in the

bed next door

she said sleep with me demanded it he

didn’t even look at it

and some of the protection and the

parameters you need

for your relationship are going to be

extreme people are going to say

some of y’all need to cut off the dms

some uh-huh

some of y’all need to change cell phone

numbers some of y’all need to get off of

websites or have

um um a software that lets your spouse

know what you’re looking at it don’t

take

all of that well then you’re going to

fall to the trap of the cougar

and the cougar may not be a actual woman

or a person

it may be a trap that the enemy said the

enemy had set this trap for joseph

and look what happens joseph didn’t even

look at her

and he said my master trusts me with

everything in this entire household

girl i’m not messing that up for you

no one here has more authority than i do

he has held back nothing from me except

your nasty tale how could i

do such a wicked thing it would

be a great sin watch not against the

master it would be a great sin

against god see many times we don’t do

things because of it how it would make a

person feel

and god says how about how i feel see

every time you sleep in with such and

such cause they want it

you’re thinking about how bad they would

feel after but it makes me feel

horrible when i saved you out of that

last relationship

and i brought grace to your life and all

i’m saying is am i considered in the

situation

he said she kept on pursuing on joseph

day after day

but he refused to sleep with her and he

kept

out of her way as much as possible

then she lies on her she catches him one

day and nobody’s around

watch this she rips off his robe

there’s a ripping that keeps coming up

she rips off his robe he runs out

because he thought he was going to be

here forever what happens when god

redeems your situation

and puts you in a better situation and

then he said but this ain’t the end of

the ripping

what happens when he thought he had it

made and god says now i gotta use this

cougar

to get you to where i need you to be

she lies oh my god joseph tried to write

me

and joseph was running back like this

helpful i know she did

like i like like i know he was mad

i don’t know i just see things in movies

in my mind

and when potiphar found out

he threw joseph in prison now what

happens y’all when i made a list for my

life

and every step of the way god says he’s

with me

but i’ve got a dream and then i get

betrayed by my brothers

i get thrown in slavery and then i get

lied on

in slavery and i get put in prison my

whole list has been ripped up and that’s

how many of y’all feel relationally

right

but look what our loving god does

he takes joseph’s prison

and he starts him on a trajectory

for the place he was supposed to be all

alone

he gets this man to go from

a foreign land betrayed by his brothers

taken to egypt in a guard’s house that

works for the palace

gets thrown into the the palace’s prison

because that’s where he needed to be

to eventually become the second most

powerful person in all of egypt

what are you saying to us pastor mike

that the reason you need to rip up your

list

is because prisons can become platforms

joseph went from a prison

to a platform because he faithfully

served

no matter what season he was in

he didn’t get mad and be like i lost my

job and

they left me for somebody else and i

can’t stand this and they didn’t

he didn’t pout and blame god he says

if i’m here if if i’m here

then there must be some reason and

something you’re doing

i think the song says even when i don’t

see it

you’re working even when i don’t feel it

you’re working you never stop

working and i came to encourage somebody

who’s in a relational pit

or who’s frustrated about the

expectations and your list is not

happening right for you

today i ask you rip up the list

because the presence of god is saying i

can take you

from the pit to the palace if you would

trust me look at it in genesis 39

21 watch watch what it says again he’s

in prison

look at it but the lord

was with joseph

he was with him in the prison and he

showed him

his what faithful love oh i love god

and the lord made joseph a favorite with

the prison warden he had favor

everywhere he went

before long the warden put joseph in

charge

of all the other prisoners and over

everything that happened

in the prison i’m telling you when the

favor of god is on your life can’t

nothing stop it

betrayal can’t stop it a bad

relationship can’t stop it

being light on can’t stop it prison

can’t stop it

it said that verse 23 the wharton had no

more worries because

joseph took care of everything the lord

was with him and caused

everything he did to do what succeed

the reason i’m asking everybody to rip

up your list

is because god’s plan for your life in

the very beginning it’s for you to

succeed

his path there will never look like your

path

there the people there won’t look like

the people you would choose there

natalie did not choose me but she needed

me

i did not choose natalie

but i needed natalie and my desires and

her desires became god’s desires

next week i’m going to try to find a

prophecy that we got from prophetess pam

venette when we were in the middle of

all of our ish

and we had a word from god not a list we

made up

but a divine inspiration from god that

our marriage would be glorious

and we would go through a storm but god

would bring us out and all this other

stuff

and we held on to that word that was the

only word he gave us on his list

it wasn’t our list it was his list and

all i’m asking you to do in this place i

feel the presence of god coming into

your house right now i want you to rip

up your list

and let god rewrite it

come on if you got a piece of paper

somewhere around you right now i want

you to get it out

and all week i need y’all to get on

social media and i need you to put your

list out there if you want to be

specific

and name people because some of y’all

been naming people some of jerome

try this diamante

put them on there some of you need to

put success

business partnerships with such and such

come on we’ve been building lists

that god was nowhere around and we’ve

been frustrated

having a house built maybe god said i’ma

have somebody give you a house i’m

saving you for something i’m not keeping

you from something

i’m saving you for something but if you

go off of your list you’ll miss the

blessings that i have for you

the person you’re supposed to be in

relationship the way you’re supposed to

live

the purpose that i’ve called you to it’s

gonna happen you’re gonna make it to the

palace

next week i’m gonna talk about all the

things that happen because i feel the

presence of god somebody’s about to get

a playbook to win

in relationships but if we’re gonna go

off the principles of god

the second thing we have to do is rip up

our list on the count of three if you

got paper everywhere

i want you to rip up your list and i

believe that the presence of god

is gonna come in this prophetic sign

right now come on get you a list get you

a piece of bill that you already paid

come on we’re gonna rip that up

somebody get something out of a

newspaper somebody get a magazine

and prophetically sit here in this

moment

and i want you to imagine everything

that you built without god

everything that you wrote down that you

said in your heart that you’ve confessed

out of your mouth

and i want you to see this and on the

count of three i want you to rip that

thing up

one we are making a decision to never

live without god writing our list

two today we stop being frustrated over

what has not happened

and we get in line with what god wants

to happen three come on rip the list

i feel the presence of god in this place

i need you to be

joyful come on somebody else got another

piece of paper

rip the list i feel the presence of god

this is the time where we’ve ripped the

list

[Music]

and we let god know that from now on

i’ll let you rewrite it come on hands

lifted all over this place

people people are about to find joy

again

i know you thought the date that you

were gonna get married was this

but god said i got you you’re still

gonna get to the promised land you’re

gonna have a glorious marriage

you’re gonna be okay he said but rip the

list right now with the list with the

list i feel the presence of god rip the

list

father i pray for every person hands

lifted all over the world

i pray for every person that’s watching

this live and watching it on rebroadcast

your holy spirit

is right there with us and father i

thank you for those who can’t see

anything right now because of so much

hurt

i thank you by your spirit you’re

revealing to them the list that they’ve

made

the things that they have said that they

want and they have to have and

all this other stuff father god and i

thank you right now by the presence that

is in this moment

that you are allowing them to see and

they are ripping up their list god

i declare that we are coming into a

place

where we’re going to spend time with you

and let you give us a dream

father god and i thank you that your

dream no matter if it goes to a pit

that you are with us in that and i thank

you that we will have

the faith to believe that the palace is

coming the palace is coming for our

marriage

the palace is coming for our purpose the

palace is coming for our children

the palace is coming for our

relationships we declare it

we believe it and we more than anything

trust you god

because you have a plan for us that is

bigger

than anything we’ve ever written down or

said god i thank you that

all week people all over the world are

going to be ripping up their list

and coming back to you and saying

rewrite it rewrite it

tell me what i need to do show me what i

need to say show me what i need to

believe for

and i thank you father god that we will

win in relationships because we’re

getting a new relationship goal

father give us aim we trust you we

believe you

and we thank you in jesus name we agree

in that same attitude right now

if you’re here and you’ve never accepted

jesus christ as your personal lord and

savior

and you thought on your list that you

were your god

you thought you could do it yourself and

the truth is you have a lot of

relationship holes

that only god can feel today

i don’t care who’s around you who’s

watching with you

what you’re smoking or drinking i don’t

care who you slept with

last night i don’t care about what

business deal you made how many

zeros you have in the bank the number

one relationship goal you need is a

relationship with jesus christ

and today if you thought you were gonna

do it any way without him

i want you to rip up your list and i

want you to accept jesus christ as your

personal lord and savior

and transformation church is a place

that tells you

that all of our lists have been messed

up by the love of jesus

see because i was someone who was

addicted to pornography

i was a liar i was a manipulator i

cheated i did things that i never

thought i’d do

and god says when you rip up your list

and you give me control of your life

i can take everything that looks like a

mess and i can turn it into a message

and today that’s what god wants to do

with your life some people there are

tears flowing right now

other people your heart is beating fast

this is your moment

today is the day of salvation and i want

you to make this decision

right now there are people praying for

you all over the world right now and

right now if that’s you on the count of

three i want you to lift your hands

i don’t want you to care about what any

anybody would say about you

and i don’t want you to care about

cleaning up and getting things right

god tells us if we give him our heart

he’ll help us

change our habits right now one this is

the best decision you’ve ever made

two god is proud of you and so are we

three hands going up all over the world

come on hands going up

we’re so proud of you listen you can put

your hand down right now

i’m about to pray for you because you

said pastor include me in that prayer

and at transformation church we’re a

family nobody prays alone so i want

everybody watching this to pray this out

loud with me everybody say god

thank you for sending jesus just for me

today i rip up my list and i

ask you to be my lord and savior

i believe you lived and you died

prayer

your life and now you’re aimed

and you’re ready to win hey listen if
