was anybody excited about what God’s

gonna do today and then well I’m pumped

from for numerous reasons a lot of them

number one you’re here okay number two

God’s here okay number three at the

beginning of every year we set aside a

time twenty one days were our conviction

at transformation church is that we’re

going to give God practically the first

of our year and so we do that by going

into a time of prayer and fasting

everybody say prayer fasting and I know

some of y’all that second word was a

cuss word for you you it’s like fasting

hold on wet not eating huh like like

like but but but what we’ve realized

over the course of our journey with

Christ is that there are some things

that don’t change except by prayer and

fasting so what the Bible says and it’s

one of the most clearest times that you

can get vision from God where you were

what we do is we train we trade what our

flesh wants for what God wants to give

us and there’s many of you that that are

controlled strictly by your flesh

whatever your flesh tells you to do

that’s what you do whatever your desires

tell you to do that’s what you do

whatever your desires tell you to eat

that’s what you eat whatever your

desires tell you to buy that’s what you

buy and there comes a point where where

you have to say God I’m a trait what I

want what my flesh wants for what you

desire for me and what we do me and my

family and many people in this church as

well as those all across the world that

are watching and transformation nation

I’m we’re starting a Daniels fast

starting tomorrow and I’m excited

because I know that when I go onto

Daniels fast everything in my life gets

better like no no you don’t hear I’m a

better husband I’m a better pastor I’m a

better leader because I draw away from

everything that’s not really adding to

me and I draw close to the one who

created me and we’re not talking about

going on a fad diet or something like

that we’re talking about getting and

spin

time with God and so every time I get

hungry I pray and for the first three or

four days I’ll be praying a lot because

my body’s adjusting from from my flesh

being fed to my spirit man being fed and

the Bible says something like this those

who hunger and thirst after

righteousness they will be filled and

what I’m telling you is many of you have

taken a step on your spiritual journey

as you’ve been a part of transformation

Church and today you get the opportunity

to take another step on your spiritual

journey many of you have never done this

before you you might have tried one time

and then went to Burger King I was like

the Lord I can’t like and it doesn’t

matter like try again many of you took

the step last um last year and the man

is only a few weeks ago but it was last

year to give in our tabernacle offering

and God took you beyond it and this year

we want to give you that opportunity

every night we will be leading right

here at 6 o’clock for an hour of power

prayer we’re gonna have a time where you

bring your devotionals and your journals

and your Bibles and we just want God to

speak to us we are making an appointment

with God every day and it’s so funny God

never misses an appointment we set with

him we may miss some appointments he sit

with us

but I’m telling you when you make a time

to meet with God I promise you he will

meet you

right here and for everybody that’s

watching online or maybe can’t get off

or maybe you work at night every day at

noon we’re going to be doing a time of

Prayer every day on all of our social

medias on Facebook live and Instagram

live so maybe a lunch break you’ll

double dip you’ll come at night but

you’ll be there in the date with us and

we’re gonna have thousands of people

joining us and I don’t want you to be

left out of that

I’m telling you make a decision

everybody say a decision to honor God

with the 1st of this year and I promise

you around here we know that this time

of year sets the pace for our entire

year if you’ve been a part of

transformation church for any length of

time god

gives us this first part of the year and

it gives us a word and usually at this

first part when we get the word we pray

and we fast over it and then it ends up

playing out in our church life in our

personal life and so I just want I want

to let you know that I’m not just making

stuff up like like I’m the leader of

this church because God’s allowed me to

take that responsibility and I’ll go

pray and ask how what do you want to say

to your people and even last year if you

were here you know like I didn’t like

the word God gave us last year like I

hated it actually but then what ended up

happening or can I be honest okay I

hated it but but but then when we obeyed

it so you don’t have to like it to obey

it when I obeyed it it changed

everything all y’all here cuz we obeyed

the word so 2016 god I want a way to

pray and God sent Michael for 2017 I

want the word to be beyond everybody say

beyond and God took us beyond in 2017

like we were a small group of people God

grew us a little bit gave us a little

more influence we thought we was doing

it and then in 2018 God said the word

for this year is strai everybody said

strike that’s the one I ain’t like

because God told us that you need to

walk instead of run into everything that

I’ve called you to do and I’m a runner

and I want to make it happen and I was

like no no I don’t make it happen if you

obey me and literally almost a year ago

this time it’s crazy we were at two

services with less than 700 people

coming to our church and God said do

less and I’ll do more and we cancelled

stuff and the gift that you saw this

year that’s what we canceled last year

we had that a year ago and God said do

less and I’ll do more and when we got in

a time of fasting and prayer on obey God

to do that world word God clowned us I

mean literally he did things that we

could never do for ourselves and our

church went from a small church to a

very large Church as you can see right

now and every color and Creed young old

black white skinny Luffy every

bodies here okay it looks like heaven

that that wasn’t here last year but when

we obeyed everybody said the word of the

Lord and I know these are things that

you don’t use all the time because you

you were rather obey your word then his

word

but when God gives us a word man we just

buckle down on it so this year I’m so

excited because the year that we’re

about to enter into is 2019 and if

you’re taking notes I’ve already started

my message this is the year of release

everybody say release say it with your

chest say release say it till it annoys

your neighbor say release oh I’m feeling

good in the building today the reason

I’m excited about this is because the

revelation gods begin to give me around

this word release it is about to set the

trajectory for the rest of this year and

and and I want to help you like if you

attach your faith to this what God’s

saying and what he’s doing he’s gonna do

it anyway he’ll do it with us or without

us but we’re a church that said no no

we’re not just gonna listen to what God

is doing and clap while he’s doing it we

don’t grab a hold of this thing and

we’re gonna see it not just happen for

our church but our personal lives for

our families everybody say release okay

so in this 21 days of prayer and fasting

we’re gonna be praying around the

subject of release and what God is doing

but every Sunday I’m gonna be teaching

another level of release and literally I

wish I could teach all of it today cuz

it’s like bubbling up in me but today is

just gonna be the I’m gonna set the

foundation for this entire series

because when you pray when you fast you

get vision for your life and for what

God is asking you to do and this is why

the enemy tries to keep people from

prayer because it’s the exchange between

you and God and the only way you can

know what God is asking you to do is if

you have a conversation with him prayer

is not a monologue not as telling God

all the things that are going wrong in

our life and everything that we hate

it’s a dialogue that means we have to

set a time and we have to stay in God’s

presence long enough

us to speak and for him to speak back

we’ll pastor does God speak yep he

speaks in a lot of ways number one way

he speaks is through his word that’s why

the devil gives you sleep itis every

time you crack open your Bible it’s just

like okay let’s be honest how many

people tried to read their Bible and

just sleep come over you just I mean

just slumber we don’t even use that word

but that just felt right just like

slumber comes over you hibernation

and I it’s because if you ever started

hearing what God was saying through his

word about you it would change how you

lived the other way he speaks is through

others and this one messes you up

because you don’t think nobody no none

except you come on let’s be honest it

takes it takes our pride being humbled

for God to use somebody that we know is

flawed to speak to it but if God can use

a bush if God keep mama why you cussing

on the front row mom fed a jackass

that’s in the Bible for all y’all don’t

know the Saints because they saw holy

dollies on a cusses minutes in the Bible

and my mama’s real holy anyway but what

I’m saying is if he can use a donkey and

if he can use and if he can use a bush

to talk to Moses why can we use your

cousin who’s still kind of crazy but

maybe is it the Word of God to you or is

it

you’re so concerned about the vessel

that you don’t hear what they say it so

God speaks to others and then he speaks

in prayer everybody say prayer and this

is probably one of my secret weapons

that’s why even at all of the prayer

nights if you come to one of our prayer

nights we got these new wristbands that

say prayer is my secret sauce and and

and I’m telling you if you come to

prayer you’re gonna get one of those and

I’m wearing this because it’s really my

secret sauce like people think it’s

charisma or are being funny or anything

no no your boy has a prayer life that is

treacherous

no-no-no if you mess with me in the

natural I’m gonna go handle you in the

spirit fight get it my way in a natural

I got some for you i’ma handle you in

the spirit God said we don’t wrestle

against flesh and blood but we gotta go

and take authority over those things and

prayer is a weapon for us and and and

one of those things that happens in

prayer is that God releases vision and I

just want to make sure that we don’t go

into 2019 and we’ve already made a plan

and then we ask God to bless a plan that

he didn’t make come on let’s be honest

how many of us in this room have ever

made a plan and then ask God to co-sign

it some of y’all sitting next to him

anyway oh I’m coming for you today god

bless you all I’m saying all I’m saying

is we get a lot of the same things when

we make a plan outside of God’s presence

it becomes a problem and then usually we

end up asking God to fix the problems

that not he made that we made without

him and so we’re first Sunday of the

year why don’t we stop our planning for

a second and go to prayer and why don’t

we ask God what do you want for 2019

what do you want from our relationships

what do you want for me to do this year

because if we get his plan we end up not

wasting time anyway going around around

and around in cycles this year God wants

to do more than he’s ever done in our

life but it’s gonna take us making

everybody say time for him to speak to

us and we want God to set the vision for

this year so this is why we pray this is

why I do a vision series and today I

want you to tell you why vision is so

such a big deal to me go to proverbs 29

verse 18 and i’ma read this out of the

message version but it says if people

can’t see what God is doing they stumble

all over themselves so a lot of y’all

tripping last year was because you

didn’t see what God was doing

you were watching what you plan to do

but you did not attend to what God was

doing but it says but when they attend

when they pay attention when they

participate and what he reveals they are

most blessed and so you have an

assignment this year as we start in this

vision series number one thing you need

to do for your life is you need to see

what God is doing what is he doing what

is he trying to put the magnifying glass

on what is he trying to get out of your

life I need to see what God is doing the

second thing that I need to do is I need

to take part in what God is doing it’s

one thing to know God is doing something

it’s another thing to participate in it

and to many of us know like yeah God is

trying to make me a leader but I ain’t

gonna do nothing like God is trying to

bring me to a place of purity but I’m

not gonna cut off the people who are

making me walk down in perversion I know

I know I know I know God’s trying to use

the gifts he put in me but I’m scared to

show anybody see it’s one thing to know

God’s trying to do something it’s

another thing to say I don’t care what

this cost me I’m gonna take part in what

God’s doing and this is the third thing

this is a result of it we are most

everybody say most blessed that’s what

God wants for 2019 in our life and so as

I begin to think about okay we went

beyond in 2017 we were finding our

stride in 2018 and God you said 2019 is

the year of release okay give me some

more on that Lord coz I want to release

it but you got to show me and I went

away and I prayed and I fasted in July I

take a week and I just go seek what God

is saying for our church and when he

said release y’all he started unfolding

this thing and I want to give it to you

okay so write this down this year God

said I want to release you from I want

to release you of and I want to release

you into

write it down this is the year of

release from everybody say from this is

the release the year of release of

everybody say of and this is the release

into everybody say into I’m telling you

this is about to be crazy so then he

went deeper I just need to give you that

so that you could be able to to brace

yourself what’s this he said Michael

from my people this is the word of the

Lord to transformation Church and to

everybody who would attach their faith

to it

he said this year I want to release them

from the place of bondage whatever place

has you tied up the relationship that

has you bound the thought process that

has you bound the family cycle that has

you God said this is the year somebody

say this is the year I feel the presence

of God already and the thing that’s in

you that’s fighting this right now it’s

generational curses and them demons who

thought they would never be touched and

they’re like oh we got to be released

like like like this is that thing in you

because there are bondages that you’ve

been tied to so long that you thought it

was a part of you like something like I

don’t have anything to change like I

don’t even know where I like what

relates from what and the truth is many

of us have had bondages that have become

a part of us so so we almost think that

we’ll just live with it I’ll just live

with my anger I’ll just live with my

attitude I mean I’m just a prideful

person like God that knows me I’m just a

prideful and we’ve no no he said this is

the year of release somebody shot at me

release those things that have kept you

bound and kept your mouth closed and

kept you stuck to the same perversion

this is the year of what release oh I’m

coming to serve notice on everything

that thought it was gonna stay with you

every attitude every lazy thought every

doubting spirit that thought it had

permanent residents in your life it’s

getting an eviction notice this month

this is the time that God wants to

release you from every bondage and then

he’s saying this is good he said tell my

people Michael that I want to release

them of the perspective of bondage I

said oh no God you just said you was

releasing us from the place of bondage

but the perspective he said yeah cuz I

can deliver you from a place but the

perspective is still in you when you’re

in another place he said ask the

children of Asia the children of Israel

when I delivered them from Egypt they

were slaves and so I took them out of

the place of bondage but I was trying to

take them to a promised but I had to

take them to a wilderness and they never

let me transform the perspective of

bondage and so what ended up happening

is they turned the place that was

supposed to renew their mind into the

place that they died and he said this

year 2019 I want to release the

perspectives that now that I’ve

delivered you you not that way no more

but you still think like it I delivered

you from poverty but now I bring you in

the blessing but you still won’t give or

be generous cuz you still think poor I

delivered you from perversion but when

you come over here you won’t trust

anybody because you think everybody’s

gonna take advantage of you God said I

got to get you released of the

perspectives the thoughts and the habits

that have you doing the same thing in a

different place that’s why I tell people

move as long as you take you the same

thing go find you go to Kansas go to LA

go to New York the same issues will show

up with different faces change jobs

change careers change majors this until

your perspective is delivered

[Music]

you Egypt God brought you out of Egypt

but Egypt is not out of you and God said

this is the year I want people to be

released in their perspective everybody

shot at me release okay one more one

more one more

he said tell my people this is the year

that I’m going to release them into the

promise of the blessing so not that just

God wants to release you from the place

of bondage and and from the perspective

of bondage but the reason he wants to

release you of those things because

those things kept you from the place or

the promise of your blessing the vision

God put in your heart the purpose that

he told you told you your whole family

would be safe and that’s the promise he

gave you and you’re like why isn’t it

happened it’s because a lot of things

have not happened because we’re still

tied to things that we won’t release

there are a lot of things that God

saying this is the promise but we’re

still tied down to things

excuse me people who were never meant to

be released into the next place we’re

going and so I’m telling you

transformation church this is about to

be a year of um of you some churchy

words right here deliverance and healing

like things that you have been holding

your whole life God by his Spirit is

coming in and they saying it’s time for

you to be released released from

alternate lifestyles controlling your

thoughts release from poverty and lack

turning you this way released from worry

and depression re least somebody shot at

me release I am too height right now the

reason is because I know what happens

when you get free you become everything

God called you to be you no longer need

the approval of people to know that God

already approves you when he called you

and he made you this is what he said

before you were formed in your mother’s

womb he said I knew you they might not

know you but I knows you

and I had plans for you plans to prosper

you not to harm you to give you a hope

and the future like this is what God

wants so it’s time for us to what

release okay so now as God gave that to

me I was like okay god I know there’s

gonna be some people in here they’re not

gonna really understand it that quick

like how you’ve been downloading this to

me for the past few months so give me a

picture show me something that I can

show people of what you’re trying to do

and this is what God said he said

Michael I want you to tell the people

this is not a one-dimensional release

this is a multifaceted release and I was

like multifaceted release that makes it

harder Lord I can’t explain multifaceted

release what does that mean and he gave

me this picture I want everybody to

listen and hear this video as as you see

release and I’ll explain it to you in a

minute

[Applause]

five boosters have been going to

throttle down in preparation for the

upcoming shutdown in ten seconds

signposted separation and so he shot

down side boosters

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

something like what did we just watch

like okay I’m about to explaining to you

that was a multi-faceted release I’m

about to show you this if you really

could hear it clearly at the very

beginning it said from Houston you have

a goal ready to launch and the first

release was a word given from an

authority figure

they release the rocket to be able to go

and it was a word from an authority can

I help you that the word that I’m giving

you today was a word that came from God

and he said release the word had to come

first from the authority that they call

Houston the word has to come first from

the authority that we call God when you

get a release from God everything else

can start to happen this is where many

of us have made our mistake is that we

have started to countdown so what we

wanted and houston we have a problem

they haven’t given us the release and

this is why this time a prayer and

fasting is so important before you start

that business get a release before you

get in that relationship get a release

before before you go to that place get a

release because when the word comes

forth then you get to see another

release the Boosters come on and then

everybody starts counting down and and

you almost probably missed it you almost

missed it but right when the rocket is

about to go up all that power all that

energy all that strength there’s

something that is connected to that

rocket that is holding it up while it’s

on the ground but it has to be released

for it to be able to go to where it’s

supposed to go what I’m telling you

right now in this season is there are

some things that God is saying they have

been keeping you grounded and it’s time

for them to be release with all of that

power with all of that string

if it would have tried to go but there

wasn’t a second release it would have

been destruction and many of you have

been trying to launch been trying to go

to your next place but you’re still

connected to people and things that have

you grounded duskily the reason I’m

saying that right now is because you’ve

been wandering for a season they held

you up they helped you sustain and now

God’s trying to launch you and he’s

saying those habits can’t go with you

into this next place I’m trying to take

you those people and their attitudes

cannot go to this next place I’m trying

to take you it means you’re gonna have

to release yeah and some of y’all missed

the the next release because there’s two

more releases see see once it got off

the ground the rocket when it got to a

certain level had two rocket boosters on

the side of it and it says you got to

get ready cuz the rocket boosters have

to be release and this was so funny to

me because some of the things that were

able to get off the ground with you

won’t be able to go to the destination

with you and you’ve been wondering why

you’ve been stuck at the ceiling it says

cuz you way too much see the thing about

the rocket boosters are they were there

and they got it to a certain place but

it is ways too much to go into the next

atmosphere and there are people that God

is trying to release you into what he’s

called you to be to the person that he’s

called you to be into the family that

he’s called you to be into the calling

that you know you’re supposed to have

but many of us are holding on to

attitudes that made it off the ground

and you thought cuz it made it off the

ground it could stay with you to sins

and perversions and and and and thinking

of people a certain way like you got it

all together God said I can’t let you

break into the next atmosphere until you

what release and let me tell you the

third

Thurmond remember I said that God told

us that we were gonna break that he was

gonna release us from so he released us

from the ground and then we’re he’s

gonna release us off

he released us of those rocket boosters

then he’s gonna release us in two and

the thing that you have to realize is

they were not trying to fly an airplane

because the airplane would have been

successful if it would have got off the

ground

stayed in the one atmosphere and landed

at another place that would have been a

rocket that would have been airplane and

God’s calling many of us to a new space

get the analogy but a new space and

we’re treating it like it’s an airplane

then I can go up stay at a certain level

and come down and God said this ain’t no

airplane this ain’t American Airlines

this ain’t Delta the same Southwest this

is something else

that I’m not trying to get you just to a

better place

I’m trying to take you to a new

atmosphere and he said that you have to

be released from the ground released of

all the weights so you can be released

into a brand-new space and I’m just

trying to tell somebody right now if you

can receive this by faith your next

level is not wrapped up in who’s coming

it’s wrapped up in what you’re releasing

you have all you need right now to

fulfill the purpose that God has placed

in your heart but you might have too

much that’s keeping you grounded that

you’re trying to go to another level

with so much weight and you’re not able

to get into the space that God’s called

you to be into so this is this is the

question you’re gonna have to answer

like I’m answering right now if God is

saying release why would you hold on

like if God’s telling you to release the

relationship why would you hold on to it

if God is telling you to release the

book while

would you not do it if God if God is

telling you to release your servanthood

and your time why would you be selfish

with that this for our church and for

anybody who would attach their faith is

the year of release somebody shout at me

release okay

so if God is saying it’s the year of the

release that means we got to start

releasing some stuff so I’m gonna give

you three things that we got to release

okay write these down release let free I

want you to put it just like that

release let free and let me give you the

definition of this word release to allow

or enable something or someone to flow

freely from confinement to make free and

that word allow it excites me because it

says you have to give permission to do

something this is your key right here

God is already to release his power on

your life but there’s one condition

you gotta allow him to you have to let

him flow freely and I know most of us

want God to supersede our wheel but it

doesn’t work like that he gave us a

wheel because he wants us to be um ones

who invite him into situations and right

here at the top of 2019 God is saying I

want to release on your life I want to

bring blessing I want to bring increase

I want to heal you but you gotta let me

you gotta allow me and then it goes on

to reinforce it it says not just allowed

it says enable and this word enable

excites me too because it means give

authority to do something so that’s

saying to you you gotta give me

permission and authority to come into

your life and release what I have for

you well well that’s a mic okay man I

believe it this is your release 2019

okay imma let God imma let him do it

Laura you can use me do whatever you

want to as long as it’s comfortable

cuz cuz then it looks like this where

this is all God wants to do in 2019 in

your life I mean it’s pure it’s ready it

was going quench thirst it’s gonna bring

it’s gonna bring everything to pass that

he showed you and stuff you didn’t even

see and God says I’m ready to pour it

out I’m ready to do it

alright God 3 to release and the reason

why nothing’s coming out is because

you’ve kept God you did not allow or

enable him to flow freely and so all he

wants to do every week while he’s trying

to talk to you why you’re coming to

church while you’re doing this all the

potential that is in here right now

it is capped because you did not give

permission or allow God to flow like he

wants to flow he’s standing here like

this but there is nothing coming out

because you did not remove your cap and

this is why God says is this how we’re

gonna do it all year like we had the

first Sunday of 2019 and I’m ready to

release my favor my wisdom plans for

stuff you didn’t even know about but

you’re gonna just keep me captive and I

know you’re like oh no no way I’m a cap

guard mmm

imma give God permission what is it to

allow we gonna allow Him Lord do you God

do you and what you do is you give him a

little bit of freedom you only talk to

him about the things that aren’t so

uncomfortable you only serve a little

bit and God since 3 2 1 I’m ready to

release and it squirts squirt I’m gonna

do big thing God I’m ready for you to

release why so little what why why is my

destiny still thirsty why is mine this

is not enough God said he wanted to

release but we only gave him permission

authority to release on our

comfortability level so God says is that

okay so 2019 we is gonna take all year

it’s gonna it’s gonna take

it’s gonna take a whole month to get a

cup full of me and some of y’all like

not me not me Lord mm-hmm let’s start

the fast Lord i’ma give once a month

Lord I’m gonna give you a little more

room and so God I’m just you know I’m a

pour out and that’s what we do it’s more

than they do why is this a problem it’s

more it’s more than pour out Lord I’m

pouring out more to you and God says why

are you comparing yourself with somebody

who disobeyed me when I want all of you

and you’re still giving me you’re only

letting me touch a little bit but I’m

ready to release but you’ve put a cap on

what I can do I made a decision that in

2019

I ain’t got no cap I’m gonna let y’all

didn’t hear me he wants to do it

somebody’s got the faith to believe I am

I’m tapping God and he can put he can

pour out now watch the thing you have to

realize is when you uncap God he’s gonna

pour out so quickly that he’d have to

feel this thing back up he doesn’t have

a limited supply he just has a limited

resource to pour out of will you let him

release everything he has for you on cap

god this year and some of y’all is so

funny you’re more worried about the

carpet

I’m about to use everything you’re more

concerned about what release looks like

to others then him actually pouring out

in your life what if somebody got wet or

what you better get a little bit of this

I’m so sorry but the way I’m about to

pour in 2019 you might get somebody shot

at me release I’m telling you listen for

everybody who’s we’ve I messed up sorry

but all I’m telling you

all I’m telling you all I’m telling you

is this it’s the year of what I’m gonna

do can have all of me you say everything

I got god okay whoosah okay let me give

you Bible second Corinthians chapter 3

verse 17 it says now the Lord is the

spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord

is there is Liberty there is freedom

there is release it’s the emancipation

from bondage true freedom I don’t care

what depression you’ve been walking

around in what lack you’ve been walking

around here what what what perversions

you’ve been locked walking around it God

says he’s coming to give you true

freedom and we all with unveiled faces

continually continually seeing as in a

mirror the glory of the Lord are I love

this progressively being transformed

like that’s why I’m asking you to fast

that’s why I’m asking you to give that’s

why I’m asking you to serve that’s why

because God’s saying would you allow me

to flow freely in you coz the goal of me

flowing in you is that you will be

progressively transformed into what has

the mic my best version no look what it

says into his

image from one degree of glory to even

more glory which comes from the Lord who

is the spirit so my only question to you

today is at what level are you gonna

allow permit release God to work in your

life to hear everybody say release okay

let me give you the second one real

quick release this release and then I

want you to write stop holding because

this release is for you to stop holding

the definition says to drop or to stop

carrying holding or containing something

it’s the Hebrew 12 this is the year that

you lay aside every way this is the year

that you stopped carrying things in

people who’ve been await in your life

let me make it real plain this is the

year that you actually forgive no no I

know I know you’ve been holding against

because your daddy wasn’t there and

because your daddy wasn’t there then

this messed me up and I didn’t have and

God said I know you’ve been holding

these unforgiveness cards for for a day

he said but it’s keeping you grounded

and two this year is the year of release

yes they abuse you but we’re letting

them go this year they will no longer be

able to be out of my life but still be

controlling my present yeah I know that

boss didn’t did me wrong and I know that

person looked over me on the basketball

team and I know those people and God

said this is the year that you’re gonna

stop holding them you’re going to

everybody say it release because I’m

telling you that some of you have so

much that God wants to do but you can’t

go into the next space the next

stratosphere and you’re still holding

things that are weighing you down

you’ve been holding people you’ve been

holding situations you’ve been holding

unforgiveness and God said this is the

year you’re gonna get you’re gonna get

free from that I’m gonna release you

from every person that looked over you

and they probably not gonna come back

and say sorry but you’re not gonna have

to even worry about

no more because by my spirit I’m going

to allow you to let go somebody say let

go I’m telling you we’re about to take

uh uh uh uh uh uh what is it called a

lesson from Elsa and we’re about to let

it go do you hear what I’m saying this

is going to be the year of release let

me help you with that Hebrews 12:1 I’m

reading in the message version it says

do you see what this means

all these pioneers who blazed the way

all these veterans cheering us on

it means we better get on with it strip

down start running no more staying in

the same place and never quit I love

this one no extra spiritual fact and

then this is my favorite no parasitic

sins do you know what a parasite is a

parasite is something that sticks to you

and it sucks you of all your nutrients

many of you have not been able to do

what God has called you to do because

you’ve been letting unforgiveness

bitterness cling to you and suck you dry

of hope and faith and believing and I’m

telling you that this is the year of

release God is coming to set you free

and this is what we did as we stopped

holding everybody shot at me one more

time release I’m telling you this is the

word of the Lord for our church and for

your life if you would grab hold of it

the last one as we stop holding and as

we allow God to flow free in our life

the last release is to make public this

is about to be someone are coming out

here there are things and gifts that God

has placed on the inside of you that are

about to be released you’ve been hiding

them from everybody your parents and

your cousins and your friends don’t even

know they on the inside but there’s a

leader on the inside of you that has

been waiting to erupt and I know

somebody talked about you let me got

your confidence down and you didn’t know

but this year God says oh it’s time for

you to release it I know what I put in

you I know who you are you’ve been going

in this other direction he said but

there’s things that I placed in you

the world needs to hear that people

around you need to know this is your

year of release and look at the

definition it means to let everybody say

let that means you got something to do

with that you have to allow it you have

to say god you can use me let something

be shown in public or made available for

use do you know why God wants you

released it’s so that you can be

available for his use cuz there’s other

people that need to be because there’s

co-workers that you work with right now

that if you would ever be released from

your anger issues you can help them be

released from their anger issues if you

would ever be released from perversion

the girl that you was trying to do it

with you could actually see them as your

sister in Christ and be a person to help

bring them into their release if you

would ever fully get released from

depression you can walk back into

situations where you see the dark cloud

around people and speak life and faith

over them and grab them by the arm and

say I know exactly how you feel but I

met a man named Jesus and he can take

what seemed like the worst place in your

life and raise you up to a brand new

place I want to help you be release let

me prove it to you what look what Luke

4:18 says it says now the Spirit of the

Lord is upon everybody say me yeah yeah

some of y’all never thought that cuz you

think you’ve done too much for the

Spirit of the Lord to be upon you but

I’m trying to tell you 2019 the Spirit

of God is coming to search you out

there’s a there is a tracking device on

your purpose right now and he’s saying

I’m looking for you will you allow me to

release in your life will you allow me

to use your

Smart’s and your business and your gift

will you allow me and God is saying the

Spirit of the Lord my spirit is upon you

and then he says for he has anointed me

that means his approval is there to

bring good nose to the poor

then it says because this remember he’s

releasing us he’s making us public he

said he has sit me everybody say God

sent me yeah that’s why you’re at the

job you don’t like right now and that’s

why you’re at the school God sent you

there you thought you ended up there

God don’t waste nothing I think my Bible

says all things every everything works

together for the good of those who are

called and then love him so he’s saying

I sent you there to proclaim look at

this that the captives will be because

that I need you to be released I don’t

want you to be bound in anger and

frustration and isolation anymore

because if you get released

then I can send you to go tell people

the good nose and not in the charge

that’s why I’m sending you to the

entertainment industry and I’m sending

you into real estate and I’m sending you

into education and I’m sitting like the

church don’t need the huddle here this

is our huddle but we gotta go play the

game and God says I have too many

injured players trying to run routes and

trying to do stuff and they haven’t been

released from their pain so this year

I’m gonna take the whole year and I’m

gonna release you every bondage Oh

baggage all things that have been

holding you and keeping you grounded God

says this is the year of religion you

don’t have to keep it if you don’t want

to he said cuz there’s other people it’s

your job in your family that live right

next door to you that the only reason I

put you there it’s cuz if you get

released you’ll be the one to help Dib

get release

he said I want the blind eyes to see I

want the oppressed I want them to know

that they will be set free

and I need you to tell everybody need

you to make this public that the time of

the Lord’s favor has come

the reason our church has to be released

is because we’re the only Jesus some

people will see

and it’s hard to release people from

something you’re still bound to I want

to pray for everybody y’all I have so

much in me right now you do not want to

miss a week of this series because I’m

layer by layer God’s gonna teach us how

to be released we’re gonna stop being

grounded we’re not gonna hold the stuff

that’s keeping us weighted down we’re

going to make public all that God has

put on the inside of us even though it’s

not in its mature state yet we are gonna

be a church that is saying with me real

loud release and I want to pray for you

cuz right now as we start in this 21

days of prayer and fasting this is the

way you get the vision to know what God

is saying to you that’s what I’m saying

like don’t Punk out right now like you

ain’t even tried yet like I can’t do

that yes you can I promise you and

you’re like the third day I went to

McDonald’s I just I couldn’t take it

anymore

it doesn’t matter like like but you’re

progressing and you’re coming to prayer

and you’re try all God’s saying is take

a step don’t don’t stay in the same

place and then expect something

different

don’t shout release but you won’t even

let me do the work in you I’m

challenging everybody start this year

off if God said the word release let’s

put ourselves in the place so we can

hear what do we really need to like

release cuz I know some of y’all like oh

I know I need to release my anger and I

probably need to release Billy like I

know

but when you get in the presence of God

he starts revealing stuff you didn’t

even remember he starts going deep down

and pulling out stuff that you suppress

so long did you don’t even know if it’s

real or not and he said yeah I want all

that cuz for where I’m taking you that

can’t go hands lifted all over this

place father I thank you Father we here

as a church we are agreeing with your

word this is the year of release we will

not stand by and not see what you are

doing we will hear you we will obey you
