We love to 10 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 1: have you be a part of one of our services. 11 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,200 Speaker 1: I'd like to start with something funny, and I heard 12 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:36,199 Speaker 1: about these four Catholic mothers. They were bragging on their sons. 13 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 1: The first one said, my son is a priest. When 14 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 1: he walks in the room, everyone calls him father. The 15 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 1: second one said, my son is a bishop. When he 16 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,879 Speaker 1: walks in the room, everyone calls him your Grace. The 17 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: third said, my son is a cardinal. When he walks 18 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 1: in the room, everyone calls him your Iminus. The fourth 19 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: one said, my son is six foot three, has broad shoulders, 20 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 1: and is incredibly handsome. When he walks in, all the 21 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:07,319 Speaker 1: ladies say, oh my God, say it like you mean it. 22 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 1: This is my Bible. I am what it says I am. 23 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: I have what it says I have. I can do 24 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 1: what it says I can do. Today I will be 25 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:20,119 Speaker 1: taught the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind 26 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: is alert, my heart is receptive. I will never be 27 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want 28 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 1: to talk to you today about your time for release. 29 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: We all have things that come against us and try 30 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 1: to hinder us and keep us from our destiny. Can 31 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: be a sickness, depression child, that's off course. Sometimes we're 32 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: dealing with things that have been passed down, dysfunction that's 33 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: been in our family line for generations, addictions, low self esteem, poverty. 34 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: It's easy to accept it and think that's our lot 35 00:01:56,360 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: in life. But God didn't create you to live restrict did, 36 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: bound or broken. That may be the way it's been, 37 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: but that's not the way it's going to stay. God 38 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: has already ordained these times of release, times where he 39 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: looses you from what's holding you back, Times where he 40 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:20,239 Speaker 1: breaks change, frees you from the sickness, delivers you from oppression, 41 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 1: stops the dysfunction. And yes, we all go through seasons 42 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: of struggle. We have to endure and do the right 43 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: thing when it's hard. Can seem like the opposition is winning. 44 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: That will always be held back. We've done what we 45 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 1: can on our own, but we're not able to change. 46 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: The good news is you're not on your own. Jesus 47 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: came to take off of you what the enemy put 48 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: on you. He came to free you from what's bound you, 49 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: to loose you from what's restricting you. Everything that's limiting 50 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: you has no right to stay. You are God's property. 51 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 1: You're about to come in to supernatural release. Something you 52 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: couldn't make happen. Looks like it's permanent. Thoughts will tell 53 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: you you'll always struggle with that sickness. You'll always be addicted, 54 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: You'll always be broke, depressed, angry, No get ready. Release 55 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: is coming. Release from sickness and chronic pain, Release from 56 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 1: poverty and lack, release from depression and anxiety, release from loneliness, 57 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 1: unfulfilled relationships, release from generational dysfunction. Those forces are being 58 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: broken right now. You're being released into freedom, released into wholeness, 59 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: released into abundance. You're gonna see beauty for the ashes, 60 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: joy for the morning. It's a new day change or breaking. 61 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: Walls are coming down. It's your time for release. Three 62 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: Hebrew teenagers wouldn't bow down to the king's golden idol, 63 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 1: and he was so upset. He had their hands and 64 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: feet bound with cords. The guards tied them up, wrapped 65 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: that rope around again and again, made sure they couldn't 66 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: get free. Then they threw them into a fiery furnace. 67 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: Was so hot when the guards put them in, the 68 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: guards were killed. Seemed like an impossible situation. Teenagers were bound, 69 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 1: no way to get loose. In the natural, this would 70 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: certainly end their life. But in that furnace, the fire 71 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: didn't burn. Their skin didn't burn, their clothes, didn't burn 72 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: their hair. The only thing that burned were the cords 73 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: that had them bound. God was showing us there's no 74 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: bondage the enemy puts on you that he can't break. 75 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 1: There's no addiction, no depression, no sickness that he can't 76 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 1: free you from. Yes, there will be opposition. The enemy 77 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: will try to bind restrict. Sometimes it seems permanent. Medical 78 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,720 Speaker 1: report is not good. We think, man, I'm restricted by 79 00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: this cancer, a child's off course, this ad, this anger, 80 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: this loneliness is holding me back. Those cords are only temporary. 81 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: Your time of release is coming. The same God that 82 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 1: burned up the ropes that were holding them captive is 83 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: about to burn up what's restricting you. And it's significant 84 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,919 Speaker 1: that God could have brought them out that fire still 85 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: bound up when the king checked on them, could have 86 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,600 Speaker 1: seen them still alive, brought them out, then untied them. 87 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: That still would have been a great miracle. But God 88 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:34,840 Speaker 1: on purpose caused the cords to be burned off. He 89 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: wanted us to see him not just as a god 90 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 1: who protects, but as a god who releases, a god 91 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 1: who frees from oppression, a god who breaks bondages, a 92 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: god who unties cords that have confined you. Maybe it's 93 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: people that are holding you back. Unfair situations are injustice, 94 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: like these teenagers. You've done the right thing, but opposition 95 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: came and now it's like your hands are tied. It's 96 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: limiting your destiny. The good news is there's a fourth 97 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: man in that fire with you, not only to protect you, 98 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 1: that's great, but he's also there to free you. The 99 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: enemy tried to use the fire to stop your purpose, 100 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: but God is going to use it to burn up 101 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: what's limiting you. Release is coming, freedom is coming, healing 102 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 1: is coming, breakthroughs are coming. I don't know, Joel. I've 103 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 1: had this anxiety a long time. These people at work 104 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: have always been against me. Nobody in my family is 105 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: really successful. No, you have to receive the release. It's 106 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 1: not going to happen if you're talking yourself out of it, 107 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 1: filled with doubt. Victory starts in her mind. Tune all 108 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 1: that out, get in agreement with God Father. I believe 109 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: it's my time for release. That every force that's holding 110 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: me back is being broken. That you are taking off 111 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 1: of me. What's trying to stop me? I talked to 112 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: a young man as a little boy. He had a 113 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: dream to become an engineer. It's very bright, had these 114 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: big goals. His father passed at a young age. He 115 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: was raised by a hard working single parent mother. She 116 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: did her best, but she wasn't around that much. He 117 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: started running with the wrong crowd, god involved in drugs. 118 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: Grades went down and didn't get the scholarship he was 119 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: hoping for. He went to junior college, but he would 120 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 1: hardly show up for class. He ended up dropping out 121 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: for sixteen years. He was addicted, depressed, broken and lonely. 122 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: He'd accepted that was his lot in life. He knew 123 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: it was his fault. He didn't make good choices. He's 124 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: flipping through the channels one night, and he heard me 125 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: talking about how you're never too far gone, how God 126 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 1: can free you and put you back on course and 127 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 1: still make something great out of your life. Something came 128 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: alive on the inside. He'd never heard anyone speak faith 129 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: over him. That night he gave his life to Christ. 130 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: Not only did he feel that hopelessness lift off of him, 131 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: but he was completely freed from that addiction. He had 132 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: tried to break it again and again, no success. But 133 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: in one moment, he was free. What happened, He came 134 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: in to his time of release. What you couldn't do 135 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: on your own, God is going to make happen for you. 136 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: He's going to take off of you what was put 137 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: on you. The addiction, the shame, the defeat. May be 138 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: too much for you, but it is not too much 139 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: for our God. He knows what you struggle with. He 140 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: sees what's hindering you, what's keeping you from your dreams. 141 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: Seems like it's permanent, it could never change. But like 142 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: this young man, your time of release is coming. Freedom 143 00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,439 Speaker 1: is coming, healing is coming, Your dream is still coming. 144 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: Things that have hindered you are being broken. Cords that 145 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: have bound you, addictions, bad influences, generational dysfunction, Those things 146 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 1: that have you tied up are being burned off. God's 147 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: about to step in and do what you could not do. 148 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 1: You're going to feel a supernatural strength, a power that 149 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: enables you to break bondage, favor that catapults you ahead. 150 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: This young man went back to school and he just 151 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: graduated with his engineering degree, and he already has a 152 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: position lined up at a big company. He's engaged to 153 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: a beautiful young woman. They're here at Lakewood every week. 154 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 1: He said, Joel, I never dreamed, after all I've been through, 155 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: I could be this happy, this blessed, this fulfilled. That's 156 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: what happens when God takes off of you, what's hindering you, 157 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: When he frees you from what's restricting you. You're not 158 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: doing life on your own. There is a power at 159 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: that's for you, that is far greater than any power 160 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 1: that's trying to stop you. Now, sometimes we find ourselves 161 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 1: in the furnace, like these teenagers tied up. We can't 162 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: get loose on our own, but that fourth Man will 163 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: show up not just to protect you, but he's going 164 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 1: to free you. He's going to break addictions, break lack 165 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: and struggle. He has these times of release where he's 166 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: going to do what only he can do. Luke, Chapter thirteen. 167 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: Jesus was in a synagogue teaching, and he saw a 168 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: lady that had been sick for eighteen years. She has 169 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: bent over and not able to stand up. He was 170 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: the Sabbath. They weren't supposed to do any work on 171 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 1: that day. The religious leaders were standing there watching Jesus 172 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: to see what he would do. He said to them, 173 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: should not this woman whom Satan has bound be loose 174 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 1: from this sickness? He said, the enemy has bound this woman. 175 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: The Enemy has put something on her that's restricting her 176 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: and keeping her from enjoying her life. You need to 177 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 1: see sickness and anything that's limiting you as not welcome. 178 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: It's on foreign territory. Your body is a temple of 179 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: the Most High God. Jesus went over said to her, woman, 180 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 1: you are loosed from your sickness. Instantly she was healed. 181 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: She stood up straight first time in eighteen years. That's 182 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 1: what happens when God releases you from what the enemy 183 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: put on you. Healing comes, freedom comes, victory comes. There 184 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 1: may be things that have you bound, a sickness and addiction, 185 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 1: a problem at work that won't seem to go away. 186 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: You've tried to get free. Nothing is help. God is 187 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 1: saying to you what he said to this woman. You 188 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: are loose from what's hindering you. This is your time 189 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: of release. That sickness is not permanent. You are loose 190 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: from that cancer. Depression is not how your story ends. 191 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: You are loose from that depression. Now receive the release. 192 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: You may not feel any different, you may not see 193 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: anything change. Yet you have to walk by faith and 194 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: not by sight. Father, thank you that I am healed. 195 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: Thank you that I am free. Thank you that my 196 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: child is on course. Lord, I believe that every bondage 197 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: has been taken off of me. What significant is? It 198 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: wasn't up to the woman to get free from what 199 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: had her bound. She had tried for eighteen years, in 200 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: her own strength, her own efforts. She wasn't able to. 201 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 1: But God has these moments where he says, enough is enough. 202 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: I'm going to free you from what's hindering you. I 203 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 1: believe today is your time of release. You're going to 204 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: see things begin to improve. What's been a struggle in 205 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 1: the past is not going to be a struggle anymore. 206 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: You are being loose from lack. Can't seem to get ahead. 207 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: Take one's step forward, two steps backwards. It's like that 208 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: spirit of not enough follows you around today. That bondage 209 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: has been broken. You're going to lend and not borrow. 210 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 1: What you touch will prosper and succeed. Good breaks are 211 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 1: going to find you. You will be the head and 212 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: not the tale. How did this happen in your own power? No, 213 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: God stepped in and said you are loosed from that bondage. 214 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 1: A friend of mine was perfectly healthy in his forties, 215 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: has a beautiful wife and children. He went in for 216 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 1: a routine checkup and discovered that he had stage four cancer. 217 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: Flew to MD Anderson here in Houston, got a second opinion. 218 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: They confirmed it gave him less than two years to live, 219 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 1: and he put up scriptures all over his house like 220 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: my mother did. I will live and not die. God 221 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: is restoring health back into me. He knew that God 222 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 1: was in control, that he had the final say. He 223 00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 1: took the treatment. It slowed things down but the prognosis 224 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 1: still wasn't good. He was scheduled to come to town 225 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 1: for surgery, and they were hoping to remove some of 226 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: the cancer and possibly give him more time. The specialists 227 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 1: made it very clear they were only talking about a 228 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 1: few more months. I spoke with him the day before 229 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: the surgery, and he was very concerned. He was a believer, 230 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: but you know, he's a little bit worrying. The next 231 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 1: day he called me and could hardly speak. He said, Joel, 232 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 1: when they opened me up, they couldn't find any cancer 233 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 1: in my body. The doctors were totally baffled. The main specialists, 234 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: who comes from a different faith, wrote on his chart, 235 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: this had to be divine intervention. When God says you 236 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: are loose from that affliction, all the forces of darkness 237 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 1: cannot stop you. Jesus said, should not this woman be loosed? 238 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: Being a daughter of Abraham. Daughter of Abraham meant she 239 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: was a part of the covenant that God made with Abraham. 240 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: She wasn't just any random woman. She had rights and 241 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: privileges because of whose family line she was in Like her, 242 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 1: You're not just anyone. You're a child of the most 243 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: High God. He hadn't picked you he put his DNA 244 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 1: in you. If Jesus were here today, he would say 245 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 1: about you should not, this man, should not this woman. 246 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: Being a child of the Most High, be free from 247 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: this addiction, Be free from this sickness, be free from 248 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 1: this limitation. I talked to a couple last week. They've 249 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: been trying to have a baby with no success, and 250 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: they took the treatments. The experts say it's not going 251 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 1: to happen. But God is saying, I'm loosing you from 252 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: that bearingness. A healthy baby is on the way. Maybe 253 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: you've been lonely, haven't met the right person. Seems like 254 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: it's never going to happen. God is loosing you from 255 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: that loneliness. The right person is going to find you well. 256 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 1: You tried to accomplish your dreams, but doors closed. No 257 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: one would help. One set back after another. God is 258 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: saying you're being loosed from what's hindering you. New doors 259 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 1: are about to open. Opportunity is going to track you down. 260 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: People will go out of their way to help you. 261 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: You can't explain it. It doesn't make sense. It's a 262 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 1: time of release where you're being loosed from things that 263 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 1: have restricted you. Now you have to let this take 264 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 1: root in your spirit. Thoughts will tell you nothing has changed. 265 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: The problem looks just the same. Be a believer and 266 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: not a doubter. Bondages have been broken, Restrictions have been lifted. 267 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: You've been released into increase, released into favor, released into 268 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: new levels. When Jesus declared this woman was free and 269 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 1: she stood up straight, it's funny. The religious leaders didn't 270 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: like it. They got upset, started finding fault, criticizing. It's 271 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: the same way today. Decle you're free, you're blessed, you're healed, 272 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: you're forgiven. Bondages are broken. Some people may try to 273 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:11,199 Speaker 1: talk you out of it. How could that need? God's 274 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,199 Speaker 1: not gonna bless you. You've made too many mistakes. That 275 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,399 Speaker 1: sickness is permanent. I saw the report. Let that go 276 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: in one ear and out the other. They're not going 277 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:24,360 Speaker 1: to understand, but that's okay. Their doubt is not going 278 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 1: to stop what God's about to do. Sometimes we're being 279 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 1: limited by negative things in our family line that have 280 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: been passed down, generational baggage, anger, addictions, low self esteem. 281 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: Some families, everyone gets divorced. You go back generations and 282 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: no one stayed married. Some families there's a spirit of 283 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: lack and struggle. No one can get ahead other families. 284 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:56,360 Speaker 1: There's depression and negativity. The mother was depressed, grandmother depressed, 285 00:17:56,440 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 1: great grandfather. It's a spirit that keeps going from generation 286 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: to generation. I believe you're the one to break negative 287 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 1: things in your family life. You're the one God is 288 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: going to release from that baggage. Instead of that generational curse, 289 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna start a generational blessing. You're gonna pass down 290 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:22,200 Speaker 1: things that make it better on your family and not worse. 291 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: This is what happened in the scripture with Jacob. He 292 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: had no integrity. He was dishonest and manipulative. He went 293 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 1: around deceiving people. He tricked his brother out of his birthright. 294 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 1: And what's interesting is his mother was the same way. 295 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: She's the one that came up with the plan to 296 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 1: deceive his father Isaac into giving Jacob the blessing that 297 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 1: belonged to Esau, the firstborn son. Isaac was very old 298 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 1: and nearly blind. She told Jacob to dress up like Esau. 299 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,880 Speaker 1: She would make the special soup that Esau always made 300 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 1: his father. Jacob could take that and pretend he was Esau. Well, 301 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: the plan worked, he deceived his father and got the blessing. 302 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:10,679 Speaker 1: No wonder, Jacob was a schemer, manipulative. It ran in 303 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: the family. When Esau found out what happened, he was 304 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 1: so angry that Jacob had to flee for his life. 305 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: He went to another city and lived with his uncle Laban. 306 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: Jacob agreed to work for him for seven years. He 307 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: would give him his daughter Rachel in marriage. The problem 308 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: was Laban was dishonest too, He was a schemer, a manipulator. 309 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 1: After seven years, Jacob fulfilled his promise. But at the 310 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 1: wedding he must have had too much to drink, because 311 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: the next morning he woke up, but it wasn't Rachel 312 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 1: in bed, it was the older daughter, Leah. Jacob nearly 313 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 1: passed out. He said, Uncle Laban, you tricked me. You 314 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: didn't keep your word. Jacob shouldn't have been surprised. That's 315 00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 1: how he grew up tricking people. That same spirit, hear 316 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 1: it ran all through the family. Well years later, Jacob 317 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 1: wanted to return home. He didn't like who he had become. 318 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:13,160 Speaker 1: He knew he was dishonest, lived deceiving people. One night, 319 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 1: as they were traveling, he sent his wives and all 320 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 1: of his family ahead of him. That left him alone 321 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 1: at this river bank. I can imagine him looking up 322 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 1: at the stars and reflecting back on his life, knowing 323 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 1: he was about to see his brother Esau. It was 324 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 1: not only a little worried, but he was down on himself, thinking, 325 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: I'm not proud of who I am. I chieat people, 326 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 1: I'm dishonest. Suddenly this man showed up. Jacob didn't realize it. 327 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 1: It was an angel. They started wrestling and struggling. At 328 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: one point, the angel asked him what his name was. 329 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 1: He answered, I am Jacob. The angel said, you will 330 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:57,360 Speaker 1: no longer be called Jacob. Your new name will be Israel. 331 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: Jacob means deceiver, coniver. Israel means prince with God. It 332 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 1: was that moment that the spirit of deception, dishonesty, no integrity, 333 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: was broken off of Jacob. God, in his mercy, said, 334 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 1: enough is enough. This generational baggage is coming to an end. 335 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:24,360 Speaker 1: From that day forward, you never read where Jacob deceived. 336 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:29,640 Speaker 1: Where he manipulated, didn't show up in his children, his grandchildren. 337 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: In fact, his son Joseph had incredible integrity, impeccable character. 338 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 1: How could this be from a father that was known 339 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: for dishonesty in grandmother that deceived people, a great uncle 340 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: that was a manipulator. Jacob came into a time of 341 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: release where the most High stepped in and put a 342 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 1: stop to what was limiting his family. There may be 343 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 1: things that have been passed down to you. You tried 344 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 1: to overcome your best, to stand strong, but those same 345 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 1: hindering spirits are holding you back. Same anger, same depression, 346 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 1: same compromise. Seems like you'll always struggle with it. It'll 347 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 1: get passed on to the next generation. No, like with Jacob, 348 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: God is saying enough is enough. What you can't do, 349 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 1: God is going to do for you. He's sending the Angel, 350 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 1: He's sending the deliverance. It's your time for release. No 351 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 1: more passing down negative baggage, no more dealing with those 352 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 1: same hindering spirits that are restricting you and holding your 353 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: family back. Today is a day of freedom. Bondages are 354 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 1: being broken, Generational curses are coming to an end, Generational 355 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 1: blessings are beginning. It's a new day. God has changed 356 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:56,919 Speaker 1: your name. No more deceiver, compromise, or mediocrity. You are 357 00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 1: a prince with God blessed, strong, valuable, confident, righteous, successful, 358 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 1: victorious in Jesus's name. God said about Jacob Genesis thirty five, 359 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 1: you will multiply and become a great nation. Kings will 360 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 1: be in your descendants. I will give you all the land, 361 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: I promise your father and grandfather. This was after years 362 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:27,679 Speaker 1: of deceiving people, years of being dishonest. But when the 363 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 1: angel changed his name, when the bondage was broken, God said, 364 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 1: now that you're free, I'm gonna bless you in ways 365 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:39,440 Speaker 1: you've never imagined. I'm gonna do awesome things in your life. 366 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 1: God doesn't hold our mistakes against us. You haven't missed 367 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 1: your destiny because you struggle with some things. Freedom is coming, 368 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 1: Wholeness is coming, Blessing is coming. Jesus said in Luke four, 369 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: the spirit of the Lord is upon me to announce 370 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:01,360 Speaker 1: freedom to the captives, recovery of sight to the blind, 371 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 1: to set at liberty those that are oppressed, to declare 372 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 1: the time of God's fever has come. That's what I'm 373 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 1: doing today. I'm announcing freedom, I'm announcing victory. I'm announcing 374 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:18,199 Speaker 1: your time for release has come. But I'm sure back 375 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 1: in those days when they heard Jesus, some people thought 376 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: this isn't for me, I never get any good breaks. 377 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: They missed out on what God had in store. Don't 378 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:32,160 Speaker 1: do like them. You have to get in agreement with God. God. 379 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: I received this today. I believe you're releasing me from 380 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:41,120 Speaker 1: every bondage. I believe restrictions have been broken. Generational baggage 381 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: has come to an end. What has hindered me in 382 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 1: the past will hinder me no more. You are stepping 383 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 1: into a new day of freedom, blessing, and victory. Receive 384 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:56,120 Speaker 1: it by faith. Matthew eighteen says whatever you bind on 385 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 1: earth will be bound in heaven. Whatever you loose on 386 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 1: earth will be loosed in heaven. One translation gives it 387 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: more clarity. It says whatever is already bound in heaven, 388 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: you can bind on earth, meaning there's no sickness in heaven. 389 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 1: There's no depression in heaven, no addictions. So we can 390 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:21,639 Speaker 1: stand against those things and we can lose freedom, loose victory. 391 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 1: I want to do that today. Will you come into 392 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 1: agreement with me? I bind depression, discouragement, hopelessness. I loose joy, happiness, contentment. 393 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 1: I bind sickness, cancer, heart trouble, diabetes, inflammation, chronic pain. 394 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 1: I lose healing, vitality, strength along life. I bind lack poverty, 395 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 1: not enough, can't get ahead. I lose abundance, good breaks, opportunity, overflow. 396 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:03,679 Speaker 1: I bind generational curses, limitations, pass down, hereditary baggage. I 397 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:09,639 Speaker 1: lose generational blessings. I lose breakthroughs, turnarounds, new standards for 398 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:14,360 Speaker 1: your family. I bind forces that are trying to get 399 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 1: our children off course, bad influences, poor judgment, identity, confusion. 400 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 1: I lose purpose, destiny, good friends, clear direction. I bind addictions, 401 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 1: bad habits, alcoholism, drug abuse. I lose freedom, wholeness, and victory. 402 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 1: I bind insecurity, low self esteem, unworthiness. I lose boldness, confidence, value, 403 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:52,160 Speaker 1: I bind negativity, pessimism, a bad attitude. I lose hope, faith, expectancy. 404 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,680 Speaker 1: I lose a bright future for you and your family. 405 00:26:56,400 --> 00:27:01,640 Speaker 1: I believe and declare your time of releases. Here bondages 406 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:06,159 Speaker 1: have been broken, restrictions have been removed. You will rise higher, 407 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:11,400 Speaker 1: accomplish dreams, and reach the fullness of your destiny.
