so today family we’re gonna be talking
about what fear does not tell you you
see there is there are transitions
taking place you know even and I believe
it’s in first Corinthians or second
Corinthians one of the two you’re going
to find it it talks about how we go from
glory to glory but you cannot go from
one place to the next without movements
and a lot of times the only thing that
would threaten your movement is the fear
that you cannot survive the transition
fear that you you don’t have what it
takes to overcome the circumstances that
would arise in the process and so there
are things why I love what I like the
name of this message what fear doesn’t
tell you because when we have insight to
what really those what those
circumstances really mean the presence
of fear is not going to stop us from
moving forward it is something in a 1
anytime it comes to transitions even
though that’s not in our text today but
something I believe we all should study
and be you know just have that knowledge
about is the Israelites when they were
in the wilderness because the wilderness
was a place of transition and that’s why
God never told them to you know build a
home there they will have like those set
up tents so that when they’re moving
they could just you know pack it up go
to the next place set up another tent it
was a place that was a transitional
period to where God was leading them but
there were so many things that came up
to threaten their ability to survive or
so it seemed to them they would complain
so many times about not having food you
know not having water then there’s water
the waters bitter then they can’t fight
it’s just all these things were
complaining about because they lacked
insight about what God was really doing
and one thing that always baffled me is
when they thought that they could return
to Egypt they would always complain as
we just we should just go back to Egypt
and not die in the wilderness but Egypt
when we look at the story of what
happened when Moses when they cross the
Red Sea right and came into when across
the Red Sea left the Egyptians the Bible
talks about how Pharaoh and hundreds of
men pursued them and all those men died
in the Red Sea and so because of the
Israelites so many women became widows
so many sons lost their fathers a nation
lost their king but for some reason they
thought they could go back what are you
going back to I believe if they ever
tried that they would have been killed
because when you think about it these
are people who grew up and they’re they
understand there’s so much bitterness I
would believe that the Egyptians had for
the Israelites because as a result of
them they lost so much but for some
reason they thought they could go back
and that’s what fear does to us it
blinds reason you try you yet so now
you’re trying to go back to something
that would ultimately kill every bit of
purpose and yet and for some people
literally you’re contemplating actually
going back to some where you came from
in being here a place where you moved by
the voice of God by being obedient to
God’s Word to you and really just the
passion God has given you to pursue
something and so we’re going to talk
about that what fear does not tell you
before we go into the message I want us
to open 2nd Timothy 1:7 what I love
about 1st and 2nd Timothy is because
these are letters written to Timothy by
the Apostle Paul now the Apostle Paul
regarded Timothy as a son and what he
really meant was like Timothy was his
spiritual son and so when someone says
you know my spiritual son my spiritual
daughter it’s about God has entrusted
that person to your care for their
spiritual growth and development so
first Timothy and second Timothy Paul is
right at him lat
full of insight and wisdom ultimately it
was for the purpose of Timothy walking
out his calling and Paul was saving it
2nd Timothy and I believe is in chapter
4 he once told Timothy that I have
finished my race and I have kept the
faith
and what I love about that is because
Paul is speaking from a place of
experience and completion and we all
have a race to complete and so this
passage is very key because I believe it
to be one of the most important things
that Paul relates to Timothy and so he
says for God has not given us a spirit
of fear but of power and of love and of
a sound mind and a sound mind really
when you even look at it also suggests a
meaningful self-control and what I also
love about that is because you can’t
really have self-control if you don’t
have a sound mind because you cannot
believe you can choose to not do
something or less you cannot choose not
to do something unless you believe you
cannot do it all right so it’s really
connected but what I want us to
highlight here is that fear is a spirit
fear is not an emotion it is a spirit
that when you use to it it reveals
itself through you as feelings of
uneasiness doubts you know others alike
so there are feelings that come as a
result of you yielding to the spirit and
I say that because fearful circumstances
the the presence of the spirit of fear
is there and so there is a reason to be
afraid but then I believe that Paul is
saying that for God has not given us a
spirit of fear you see because the
spiritual possess reveals who you are
and so when he’s telling us and power
love and sound mind as it relates to the
Holy Spirit the Holy Spirit is power is
love and his sound mind because now when
you know that okay God has given me his
Holy Spirit he has given me the ability
to have
divine nature then my life should be
submitted to the things that reflect the
authenticity in me and so what Paul is
saying is that if I if God has not given
us a spirit of fear then we should not
be yielding to the spirit of fear we
should not be given into that spirit but
we should give in to the Holy Spirit
you see Jesus would often say you know
fear not and he’s saying it because
honestly there is a reason to be afraid
there’s a legit reason to be afraid but
when he’s seen fear and not he’s saying
do not yield to the suggestions of what
that spirit is telling you your life
would look like do not look at things
from his perspective look at things from
my perspective because I have given you
my spirit and it’s so interesting
because when you think about the spirit
of fear for example uneasiness is one of
the feelings that you know that comes
out of that but uneasiness will tell you
to be you know that a circumstance would
threatens your ability to move forward
but then power tells you it gives you
the knowledge that I have the capacity
to overcome so they cannot they don’t do
all together but all honestly a lot of
these things is it’s easier said right
like we know it but now how do we walk
into it and that’s why I want to discuss
this topic alright and so we’re going to
open this is the main text for today
we’re going to open Matthew 14 22 to 33
I’m going to read it through and there
are three things that were going to
really discuss about what we can learn
well Jesus I believe is teaching us
through this message right and so it
says immediately he and that’s Jesus
made the disciples get into the boat and
go before him to the other side while he
dismissed the crowds and after he had
dismissed the crowds he went up on the
mountain by himself to pray when evening
came
was there alone but but the boat by this
time was long it was a long way from the
land being being by the waves for the
wind was against them and in the fourth
watch of the night he came to them
walking on the sea but when the
disciples saw him walking on the sea
they were terrified and said it is a
ghost and they cried out in fear but
immediately Jesus spoke to them saying
take heart it is I do not be afraid and
Peter answered him Lord if it is I
command me to come to you command me to
come to you on the water
he said come so Peter got out of the
boat and walked on the water and came to
Jesus but when he saw the wind it’s so
interesting when he says when he saw the
wind because already the pastor tells us
that the wind was against them so he’s
been saying the wind right but but
really when he shifted perspectives when
he started listening to life from
another angle so when he saw the wind
cos not he’s walking on the water is no
longer in the boat even though it was
really a mess when he saw the wind he
was afraid and beginning to sink he
cried out lord save me Jesus immediately
reached out his hand and took hold of
him saying to him o you of little faith
why do you doubt and when they got into
the boat the wind ceased and those in
the boat worshiped him saying truly you
are the son of God not what fear does
not tell you number one have a slide if
you know me I love the slides so about
that kyla so the first thing is that
you’ve been equipped to overcome I say
this because right before this passage
right before I say it says that
immediately Jesus tells them to leave
right before this this is when Jesus fed
the 5000 people he fed the 5000 people
where to you know two fish five loaves
of bread come on somebody there’s a
ministry even called that right he fed
them right before this happened he
showed the disciples a miracle that they
had never seen you see God will never
put you in a position that requires more
faith
if you didn’t already equip your faith
to believe that you can overcome in that
area right before and what is so amazing
and weakness isn’t the same chapter well
it’s so amazing is that so when Jesus is
doing this miracle right five over 5,000
people actually needed to be fed when he
broke the bread he didn’t give it
directly to the people he gave it to the
disciples and the disciples gave it to
the people and I believe that what is
what was taking place here is that God
is trying to show us that there is a
part that we play in this you see for
the disciples well not every time I read
that passage I’m like for the disciples
to take breath from Jesus so he was they
would go back though go to him and take
the bread give to the people go to him
take the bread and give to the people
the fact that they did not complain or
question him at any point in time that
Lord are we gonna have enough to feed
all these people
they were just obedient and that was
that was a revealing of their faith that
I don’t know how this is happening but
Jesus you’re doing it and I’m gonna keep
going back to you taking this bread and
to giving it to the people you see the
part that we play in this thing called
life is faith we have to believe that
God will always come through
we cannot question in the process the
disciples never questioned him so I mean
there are 12 disciples right there over
5,000 people they keep going back to him
going back to him I never did they say
uh here now a 3,000 mile never gonna
have enough they just kept going back
they believed that whatever he was doing
was working you see there’s a passage in
scripture that talks about he who he who
asked God for something should not doubt
because he should not he should not
believe that he will receive anything
from the Lord and I believe that doubt
is faith without works
because we’re saying that god I believe
you to do this but your works are
looking a little different God I believe
that you’re going to do this but we’re
complaining God I believe that you’re
going to do this but where our actions
are not aligning with what we’re saying
we believe God to do and so we have to
walk in the knowing that Lord you’ve
already equipped me to overcome and one
of the simplest ways to do this is to
meditate on the faithfulness of God in
your life sometimes you just have to
look back I loved it during the worship
when they’re singing God yesterday today
and forever you’re a God because if you
saw me out of something that at the time
I had no idea how I was gonna come out
of why am i complaining about the now
because obviously you brought me out of
that for me to see you in a different
way for me to believe in you in a
different way and so when I am seeing
something that I’ve never really
experienced before
I know I know Lord that you would also
bring me out of this and so fear would
never want to you to know that God has
already equipped your faith to overcome
number two we have it right there slide
right obedience led you there you see
it’s so interesting that Jesus is the
one who told them to go they didn’t go
by themselves they were following the
Word of God you see a lot of times when
we when we move based on God’s leading
we assume if you like me up everything
is a sign I’m not that’s a sign you know
that’s the sign I should get closed down
I just saw sprinkles we find all the
wrong signs and the wrong things and
sometimes in this and sometimes in a
search
stance what the enemy tries to do if
you’re not aware because actually
there’s a scripture that says when
tribulation comes because of the world
when you’re moving in a direction God
has called you you will it isn’t without
a doubt there will be tribulation there
will be circumstances that will arise
but when the enemy tries to do is to
deceive you
that Oh perhaps it’s punishment from God
or perhaps it’s a sign for you to turn
around you see one thing that God taught
me and it blew my mind was that even in
the place that I haven’t called you I
will still allow you to have the victory
for you to know that nothing is beneath
me I will allow you to see that I can
make a way for you there and tell you
from a place of clarity that this is not
for you and so so many times when you
encounter a problem it’s not God telling
you oh you need to go no I mean he is
God he can see you through it until you
turn around he did that for a prophet
named Elijah he provided food for him
he’s over there walking to his
destination he gets there God is like
why are you here nothing is above God’s
power and so no matter what you are
experiencing in your life if God’s Word
sukh you there believe that he will see
you through it as well one of my
favorite passages is when God was
speaking to Jeremiah and he says that I
am watching over my word to perform it
and the beautiful thing is that when God
gives you a word and sometimes that’s
why it’s scary to us because it’s almost
like he’s showing you the destination
because you see when Jesus told the
disciples he taught he directed them to
go and he gave them a destination they
were to go to the other side but Jesus
was well aware he knew that obviously
you know what was going that what they
were gonna encounter that there was
gonna be
the wind was going to be against them
and all that stuff he knew that but he
stayed behind and what I love is that in
the scripture it talks about and Jesus
went by him he was alone and he prayed
now the only time in scripture where you
know when Jesus is praying for someone
and he revealed what he was praying
about those a disciple named Peter and
he said Peter I have prayed that your
faith would not fail it is likely that
when Jesus was praying while they were
in the boat he is praying for their
faith that no matter though even if the
wind is against them that they would
know that they are secure that they
would know that they’re okay that they
would not be uneasy because family a lot
of times God will be silent there was a
reason why they were experiencing that
and Jesus was not there but that does
not mean he’s not watching that does not
mean he’s not he’s not aware of what’s
taking place there’s some things that he
showed me about even people listening to
this message that there are things that
you’re asking him about and he’s silent
on it it’s not because you’re not
praying enough or you’re not hearing you
know you’re hearing is blocked or
anything but there’s a part that we play
and that part is faith that even when we
don’t see him even when we don’t hear
him we believe in him because of his
track record in our lives right number
three it’s a lad it’s about your
relationship with Jesus this really blew
my mind it’s not even about the
circumstance you see one of the last
things that they said after so first of
all Jesus comes he’s walking on water
he’s walking on the problem he finds a
supernatural way to get to them the
moment he enters the boat it’s up when
we read the passage it talks about how
the wind seized right so the moment he’s
in their presence what was against them
was not working for them but at the end
of it the disciples said to him
that truly you are the son of God you
see all along they have been
knowledgeable because Jesus had been
referred to himself as a son you know
the son of God
all along they have been knowledgeable
about who Jesus is but the circumstance
brought them from a place of knowledge
to revelation you see knowledge for
example would say in the book of a sire
you know the Word of God says by His
stripes we are healed revelation will
tell you in the book of Isaiah God’s
Word to me is by His stripes I am healed
not revelation makes things personal it
makes you believe it also for yourself
because you can have knowledge about
things but if you’re not walking in the
revelation of what that thing is you
cannot encourage anybody I always I
always talk about healing because it’s
not just about the knowledge of the word
I know that to be true I’ve experienced
God’s healing power in my life and even
if I’m not expensive in my life I have
seen God’s healing power as well and so
it’s from a place of Revelation not just
a place of and the Bible says because
you could read the whole Bible you could
know the whole Bible and not even move
in power and that is why even people who
are theologians don’t even believe in
the miracle-working power of God but
they know the Bible and we cannot have a
relationship with God solely based on
knowledge we have to also walk in the
revelation of what we know and so the
circumstance brings you to a different
perspective of our Father the
circumstance because for example it’s a
difference when you tell someone jesus
will provide when you know that you’ve
been in some funny things than he
provided for you when you speak from a
place of truth you empower and you
impart faith in the other person
and everything about our lives family is
really about what God wants to do
through us for the world and so
sometimes when these circumstances
happen it’s really to build your
relationship with Jesus because at the
end of it maybe this does the one the
the problem when we are so focused on
just getting out like Lord just get me
out of this Lord just get me out and we
miss because the funny thing is that
once you’re out of it is done
you’re not even and that’s why we forget
so many times how God has seen us
through because we were just waiting gut
I just want to be out I just I just need
to pay this rent Laura I’m not trying to
hell that’s Laura I just need to pay
this rent right Lord I just I need the
funds to do this I need this to happen I
need to get this job I need this person
to whatever it is we are so focused on
the destination and when we get there
we’re already there without looking for
the next thing and we miss the point of
seeing God in a different way and
knowing that from that place I can
minister to another from that place I
can tell someone else going through it
that God will provide God will heal you
but these are the things the enemy does
not want you to know because he’s
struggling for you to yield to his
spirit he wants you to say no listen to
what I am saying about the situation to
keep you stagnant because you can’t move
you can go back and you don’t want to
move forward but family in this time
there’s a lot of things that it would
seem as though it is threatening your
ability to to make progress but it’s not
you’re just focusing on the wrong spirit
there are things that even one of the
things that God even kept speaking to me
about why this whole thing with fear we
really have to you know get a headlock
on it it’s because even in our nation
there are things that are going to
happen the enemy’s only way to
you is to make you it’s for you to
submit to his spirit of fear and they’re
things that are going to happen not just
things that are rising in our lives with
things that will start taking place in
the nation but you have to know that God
the same yesterday today he will be the
same forever if he’s been protecting you
then he’s gonna keep protecting you if
he’s covered you then he’s gonna keep
covering you if he’s provided for you
then he’s gonna keep providing for you
standard me family
there was a lot that I was like oh god I
really want to take this message here
and there and do all this dancing
dancing things with it but sometimes
there you just have to compact it and
throw it in right because there was
something and before we even go Oh
something that he kept showing me and
you see when hmm when Paul was telling
Timothy that God has given us a spirit
right that is a power of love and a
sound mind what the enemy has done to
some of you is to attack you in those
areas early on in life you see when it
comes to having let me hold me please
like this the absence of power would
always open the door to fear and so what
happens is that because and it’s and
it’s always that’s always the enemy is
always after what God is gonna do in
through your life it’s never heat I mean
why would he waste this time with
someone who’s not great and so there was
some of you
and you were drawn here today and and
the fact of the matter is that the fact
that you are here is already a sign that
God’s grace never left you but literally
what the enemy what the enemy did or the
enemy did it was to take power from you
and it was either through sexual abuse
of physical abuse but to put you in
situations where you felt like you could
not defend yourself and without knowing
that opened that opened the gate to that
spirit of fear
and so there are a lot of things you’re
fearful about some of the smallest
things you’re like ah maybe not and he
attached you in that area because he
knew if hid that spirit could find some
kind of room in your life then he can
always control to some degree your
movement well family God is going to
break that thing tonight and so
but whenever it comes to sexual abuse
physical abuse it’s a very it’s a
weighty topic in and it also kind of
dislike this connection of shame and no
I’m good and you know I’ve got it
together but if you are here and you
know that the Spirit is tugging on you
we are only here to love on each other
that is the only purpose of us being
here we’re never here to say oh my gosh
girl did you know this person now I
never know no God is watching all of us
people and so if you’re here and sexual
abuse physical abuse things that made
you feel like it took your power away
come down
amen
and
amen it’s okay Oh
thank you guys thank you
thank you that
don’t be shame has no place no place no
place and we are not going to yield to
we’re not going to you to that spirit
anymore if you are here and you know
that this message is speaking to you and
just still on sexual abuse and physical
abuse come on down come on down this was
an area that God seriously highlighting
thank you Jesus thank you Lisa
thank you Jesus thank you Jesus come on
thank you amen
thank you Lord all right uh Thank You
Lauren you see the the crazy thing is
that the enemy wants you to he wants to
trap you in shame and so even Dobby we
are in God and all these things and
you’re like now I’m getting up I’m I’ve
gotten over it and it’s like and
sometimes you even question God why did
these things happen and and God willing
there’s a message that he’s been talking
to me about and we’re gonna really
whenever it releases meat we’re gonna
talk about even how are we walking out
on Authority but the fact that you are
here family focus on what God is doing
now the fact that you’re here the fact
that you’re listening to this message it
didn’t have a hold on you like the enemy
thought but what is gonna happen tonight
every every part of you that it’s still
lingering and what nothing is gonna be
broken off in the name because sometimes
sometimes you don’t even know you don’t
even know why you’re so scared
any little thing you’re just like why am
i why am i panicked why am i anxious why
am i uneasy and that that’s a that’s a
word for some of you you’re always just
uneasy and it’s like why this why that
what God is like it’s not my love its
protection and you might have questioned
his love for you back then but he’s
telling you his love is protection it
was love that sent Jesus to the earth it
says I’d forgot so loved the world you
don’t have to live in fear you don’t
have to live in anxiety don’t have to
live in all the suggestions and thoughts
that fear wants to tell you about your
life his love for you is protection the
enemy thought that maybe he took
something away from you but no he didn’t
he did not God as a God of restoration
and you might not understand how it got
how are you gonna restored it but God is
creative y’all he got some ways he has
some ways I am so excited at you that it
took the courage to come down here
because for the past few days I felt and
it was just a weird feeling and the fact
is I saw this is just what God does with
me a lot of times because I will begin
to feel what the person is going through
and even when it comes to healing
sometimes when I speak about what areas
being healed and I heard about those
testimonies is because in that moment
all of a sudden my knee starts feeling
like it’s going on like what is this I
gotta walk up in a few right and then he
tells me somebody’s knee but for the
past few days literally I’ve been so
down I didn’t I just didn’t want to do
anything and I’m like God why this
almost feels like depression like what
is going on here but he was showing me
that this is like a hidden feeling that
so many of my children are going through
but they’re hiding it they’re hiding and
then just coping with it
and it was because of the area of sexual
abuse and
physical abuse amen come on down
those two areas and we’re just kind of
like now I’m good you know because you
don’t want to get into the discussions
of what that might have done or what
that meant to you how that affected you
but the love of God is something so
powerful that no one can explain it the
Bible talks about even his peace his
peace surpasses understanding it does
not make sense why all of a sudden
you’re just at ease and that is what its
gonna happen family that is what is
gonna happen family and if you’re here
and you know that this message when
we’re talking about fear there are a lot
of things that there areas in your life
that you were just like kind of hesitant
like should i how do i continue how do I
move forward and now it’s just God is
telling you just remember remember
remember my faithfulness in your life
and if you’re here you’re just gonna
make duck like Lord I’m not gonna give
in to fear anymore yeah come on down
thank you Jesus just
thank you Jesus
thank you lord
Thank You logistic coming just keep
coming it is not the feeling you don’t
feel fearful you submit to the spirit
that is just that’s what it is we submit
to the life it’s telling us we’re gonna
have but we have a greatest spirit and
that is the Holy Spirit and in those
moments is to say Lord what are you
saying about this circumstance and even
if I don’t hear you I believe in your
power I believe that even if it is not
for me I’m still gonna be victorious and
then walk away
unless family unless God tells you to
walk away ahead that’s if you hear and
clearly all right but no obstacle no
circumstance is ever would ever surpass
the power of God never I’ve been to I’ve
gone through things that God showed me I
would be successful in it sometimes I
experience success today and then he
told me to leave and the faces that he
told me to leave a long time ago I
wasn’t just sure if he was telling me to
leave when that and then he gives the
thing to me and then tells me to release
it because now I was I had clarity in my
mind it wasn’t about well what if I walk
away and it’s something that was for me
or you know whatever whatever and he’s
like you know what here now drop it
because it was never for you in the
first place and you’re so free because
it’s not even about you know what did I
was it that I failed is it that couldn’t
get it or is it that whatever he’s just
like no something’s you would have a
peace and knowing to walk away from but
if you’re in a place where you you’re
just kind of anxious and it’s like I
don’t know if I should guy is a god of
clarity family and so sometimes even
when you’re in the space of I don’t know
I don’t know just be just be in that
time just be present in that moment
allow God to do whatever he’s doing
because he knows how to direct you you
see why I call love protection is
because when you understand the love of
a father he would not see you going
through something that would damage you
and just leave you God is a professional
and knowing how to close doors
and so family we have to we have to walk
there’s a sense of freedom we need to
have stop being so uneasy with yourself
stop being so hard on yourself
my god I don’t know you know I hope this
is not the devil if it’s the devil he
knows how to shut the door he knows how
to get to you just be be present in
every moment of your life God is our
Father he’s not just God up there is our
Father it’s a very personal relationship
imagine yourself with a child and you
know that child is going in the
direction and you have the power to
reroute her won’t you do it and that has
got to us and there’s some things family
there’s something that it would let you
continue because it serves a purpose not
the purpose you thought it serve it
serves a different purpose and so
sometimes even the things that you have
walked into and it’s like God but why
did you allow me to walk into this
change one thing God’s there telling me
is that sometimes you have to come to me
in a different way change the question
you’re asking me because as long as you
keep asking me the same question your
heart is not open to receive what I have
to say so sometimes you have to come
from a place of an open heart and say
instead of always asking God Lord why
did this this why did you allow this to
happen because you already have a
preconceived thought about whatever God
is going to say so you’re not even
willing to receive his truth so
sometimes you just have to come to God
and say Lord show me what purpose not
being served in my life and be open be
open God is our Father
and some here even that relationship
understanding that God is my father it’s
not really a reality all the way to you
but he’s gonna ship you just open your
heart to him his love would be your
protection you would not need to walk
around and anxious and not easier about
life because you would know that Lord
you are protecting me the Bible says
that the Lord order the steps the steps
of the the righteous are ordered by the
Lord nothing you do out of love for God
or nothing you do out of like Ghana I’m
I’m doing this because I’m believing
this is what you said you don’t need to
be afraid of getting it wrong because
God is going to order your steps and if
that is you just calm down I’m done Amen
I see you amen
I see amen
a man we don’t need to be fearful about
getting it wrong you probably will get
it wrong and cut it’s okay with it

teaches us he builds us it’s a beaut
it’s a love relationship thank you Lord
for what you’re doing in this house
thank you lord
let us pray family hold the hand of the
person next to you something so
beautiful in this atmosphere Wow
every eye closed and let’s take a moment
just to talk to our Father just take a
moment however you want to talk you want
to sing whatever you want to do take a
moment thank you Jesus
thank you Jesus you see there’s some of
you and God is just is so beautiful
because it’s almost like tonight is the
first day you’re having a conversation
with him as a child to their father it’s
not just about a prayer to God it’s it’s
it’s a it’s my father and it’s almost
it’s a beautiful thing with Jesus is
that honestly he loves each of us in
ways that it seems it’s just us but he’s
caring it’s almost like there’s this
picture with like a man rocking a baby
in Europe in your day to day life in my
scene like you you have to be the one
that’s always on that carries other
people that is doing everything for
other people you seem to be the one but
Jesus is carrying you he’s carrying us
we are his children children not his
adults he refers to us as his children
so it doesn’t matter how what age you’re
in and what career you’re in and the
responsibilities in your law on your
life and even the children you have you
are still God’s child
you are still God’s child god you’re so
good father good I thank you for tonight
lord I thank you for the courage upon
your children that even the moment of
them walking down when we talked about
abuse that was them walking yielded to
power no longer with shame and and
deception have any place in their lives
yes they have been through things yes we
do
this worldís can be evil but God your
grace
you’re loved it never left them even you
Jesus had to go through some things
thank you Lord that it does not make
sense the piece that we’re gonna be
walking in it does not make sense how
easy things will feel and I thank you
for sleeping it’s coming upon people
even even having problems with sleeping
I thank you Lord that you’re giving them
rest further in the name of Jesus we
cast every imagination that is of the
enemy right now Lord every imagination
produced by a spirit of fear we cast it
out of the lives of your people right
now in the name of Jesus thank you Lord
that you are our hedge of protection no
more your love protects us your love
sees us too
we would walk through life Lori guy with
our heads up high
it would not be anxious we will not be
uneasy but we would walk in power with
walking love and with the sunlight I
thank you Lord that your children will
know your heart for them Oh
only they know your heart for them maybe
they understand why that’s not you’re
not over there just waiting to judge
you’re not punishing them through
circumstances but may they know your
heart yes even now it’s there’s no such
a heaviness that many doubt your love
for them
and they question the things that
they’re going through as God does not
love me but he loves you and it might
seem hard in my scene rough but focused
on the grace of real life focus on his
love seen you through the fact that we
are alive today speaks of so much hope
family God loves you and some of you
really need to know that you really
really need to know that that he’s not
just waiting for you to get it wrong the
fact that you were drawn here today and
some of you this this was this is among
your first time here and you don’t even
understand why you were drawn here today
but you need to know that Jesus loves
you even when you haven’t accepted him
in your heart he’s watching over you
he’s watching over you thank you Jesus
have your way in everyone’s life here
your words as a perfect love cast out
all fear may we walk always in the
revelation of your love for us may we
know Lord God that circumstances don’t
mean anything it’s actually serving our
good
that’s how we get from glory to glory
that is how we grow that is how we walk
in the next dimension of our lives so
you’ll be the glory father thank you
Lord for what has happened in this house
thank you Lord that no one will walk out
of here the same way they walked in
everything they walked in here that is
not a view Lord God we release it on
this altar tonight
every shame every guilt every fear
everything Lord God we release it on
this altar tonight we are not walking
out with it Lord Jesus for this reason
we have such a place for this reason we
can come here and cry out to you Oregon

house and through the lives of your
children thank you Lord that there so
