God has a vision for all of our lives. But are we preparing for it? When we take what God has given to us and write it down, we begin to fulfill that vision. If we’re vacant in preparation for it, it will pass us by. Pastor Mike shows us how we can get ready for God’s vision, and how we can begin to see our anointed imagination become reality.
oh come on transformation church
let’s give god a shout of praise
oh come on has he been good to you this
week
has he been faithful
all over the world let’s give god one
shot of praise
oh magnify the lord with me
i said with me god you’re worthy
hallelujah five more seconds
shake off the weak
and give god the praise that he’s worthy
of
hallelujah
oh i feel something about to happen in
the room
happen in your house
happen in your heart
somebody
y’all quit
quit
i feel expectation this morning
anybody expecting anything from god
right now come on in the chat what i’m
expecting i’m expecting
i’m expecting it’s funny
that um
around transformation church a lot of
people having babies right now
a lot of y’all just don’t know what to
do with yourselves
pandemic and
people
at home and now everybody’s rubbing up
we having a baby we having a baby and
i’m so excited
about everybody that’s
expecting the one thing that happens
when you’re expecting
is everything changes
because you know something’s coming
[Music]
like what you eat changes
where you go
changes who you allow
yourself to be around changes
when you’re somebody say expecting
this whole series that we’re in what i
believe god’s trying to do
is make people expect something that
maybe they weren’t pregnant with in a
different season
maybe it wasn’t something you were
believing for in a different season but
right now somebody said i’m expecting
say it with faith somebody say i’m
expecting
now the question is what are you
expecting
because some of us are expecting
hurt
expecting pain
expecting frustration because it’s what
happened last time
but today god told me to encourage
everybody that is in our church
to expect good from god
[Music]
i don’t know who
needs to hear this this morning
but you’ve been expecting
for it to fall apart and how it’s about
to mess up and where we’re gonna have to
put it together and god told me as i was
coming down this morning he said michael
tell my children
expect good for me
lift your hands right now because some
of y’all are are in a place where you’re
like i don’t know how father i pray that
you would raise the level of expectation
that we would expect good from you
i feel the presence of come on
just just begin to say god help me
expect good help me expect you help me
expect more than i’ve been expecting i
expect good from god
i even heard god say
a no is good
because it means a better yes
[Music]
y’all miss the whole i’m already too
deep into the message y’all need some
but god said even the no is good
because that means he’s saving you for a
better
yes i need somebody with faith to help
me already there’s a better yes in your
future
there’s a better yes around the job
there’s a better yes for your business
and your family no
is not not good it’s a better
yes
and i’ve just been sensing a better yes
oh i feel that thing
god says some of the things that he said
no to
was his protection
it was for a somebody just say a better
yes
i just think about it this ain’t my
message but somebody is pulling on me
right now you need to be encouraged
right now
that god has said no several times in a
row
because that would have been
jeopardizing
to the plan he has for your life
but he’s been setting you up
for a better
yes
my daughters
they now start to tell me that you
you
why you keep saying no
because they don’t know what i have
planned for them
and when i tell them they can’t have
pizza at breakfast
it’s not because i don’t want
them to have good in their life
it’s cause i know what me and their
mother talked about
what we’re to take them for dinner
there’s a better yes in the future
[Music]
and i just feel like somebody’s
expectation needs to raise because the
no
is not no it’s a better yes
thank you lord
that we can see your goodness
even when it doesn’t feel good
thank you for what you’re gonna say and
do today i feel your presence already
i’m trying to move right now but
prophetically somebody was about to give
up because of the door that slammed in
your face
and god said you should start praising
for that door closing
[Applause]
y’all don’t even know how to do that god
said you need to shout because the thing
that didn’t happen was the best thing
that you never had
i feel that thing right now
there’s some things that you’ve been
crying over that god said dry your tears
because you would have really been
crying if i let you have that
but there is a better yes ah
there’s a better yes
there’s a better yes in your future
and it might be disguised and wrapped in
a note but there’s a better yet
there’s a better yes
oh i feel that thing god said i’m not
denying you i’m setting you up for a
better yet
i haven’t forgot i got you carved in the
palm of my hand but there’s a better yet
i feel this thing is for me even the
church not being open yet
see i got to talk to myself right now
i have tried everything in my power
to get this building back open
and i have to believe
that this holy pause that god has had
on all of y’all being in this building
wasn’t because god doesn’t want this
place filled with people and praise and
worship
he said there’s something i’m setting
you up for
that’s a better yes than what you could
have done
[Music]
so father help all of us
not just get discouraged
while you’re still working
we thank you for the better yes
so we say yes lord
say yes lord
[Music]
from the bottom of my heart
to the depths of my soul
i say yes lord
completely yes
[Music]
my
soul my mind will and emotion says yes
i feel old right now but i say
yes sir
somebody needs to get that in your
spirit say yes
from the bottom from the bottom of my
heart
to the depths of my soul
i say yes lord
soul
says yes
somebody say my soul says yes
say
say my
soul some of y’all too young for this
but there’s a place that i don’t want to
do it but my mind will and emotion are
going to say yes somebody say my soul
says
[Music]
if your soul is going to say yes to
whatever god wants to do why don’t you
just clap your hands and give god a
shout out pray oh come on
make your soul say yes
yes god yes god even though i don’t feel
it yes god even though it doesn’t look
good yes god
my soul my mind my will my emotions i
say yes
god’s got a better yes but you got a
better yes too
there’s got to be a better yes in you
there’s got to be a better yes some of
us are doing what god’s saying gradually
but slow obedience is disobedience
and god says there’s a better yes
somebody say a better yes
i have a better yes in me
[Music]
i got a better yes in me
when he tells me to wake up early in the
morning and pray will there’s a better
yes in me
when he says go give to that person and
i can’t figure it out god said there’s a
better yes in you
so my
soul says yes yes
[Music]
today in front of everybody said my
soul
said yes
[Applause]
in
[Music]
just one more time
[Music]
if you got a better yes than you give
god one more
shot oh come on all over the world
wherever you’re watching this from
you might have to be quiet but something
on the inside of you is raising up
yes lord
come on put it in the chat say yes lord
say it out loud say yes lord
yes lord
yes lord
[Music]
the sign of real maturity
when you walk in your faith with god is
your yes gets quick
[Music]
some of us are still trying to say yes
for something god said to you three
years ago
[Music]
he gotta twist your arm and convince you
and put you in a headlock and
oh i guess i need to say but the sign
that you’re maturing
is when god just whispers something and
the yes is quick
i don’t understand it but yes
it doesn’t feel comfortable but yes
i don’t even know them like that but yes
my prayer as your pastor is that our yes
would get strong and fast
if god says for us to give
we say yes
if he says for us to stay
when we want to go
we say yes
when he tells you to shut up
when you have plenty to say
oh come on don’t don’t do me like that
well i got all the reasons why and god
said be quiet and you say yes
[Music]
that’s what i’m praying is happening
through this series that god is maturing
our yes
he’s saying walk in crazy faith and we
say yes
he says give the book to somebody else
stand and get and pray for somebody you
don’t know their whole situation fast
and i didn’t call the whole church to a
fast i told you to fast
and we will say
yes
you lord for a church that says yes
thank you lord for business owners that
say yes
thank you lord for students that in the
midst of what culture is telling them to
do in high school they will say yes
god’s calling you to do a bible study
every day at lunchtime
what will you say
at the workplace at the job
he wants you
i didn’t even study for that this is not
my career but he said but i got a
calling for you in this thing
will you say
yes
[Music]
my soul will say yes
my mind
my will
and my emotions
oh that last one
[Music]
well emotionally i don’t feel i don’t
have peace about it do you know
that you don’t have to emotionally have
peace to be obedient
i know that goes i know
well it’s not settled yet do you know
how many things i’ve had to step up and
do
knees shaken
[Music]
unsettled why because god’s not looking
for my feelings he’s looking for my
faith did he say it did he do my answer
will be
yes
somebody’s yes is getting stronger right
now amen
y’all sit down anybody ready for the
word today
amen
we are in week five
of a series we’re calling crazier faith
somebody say crazy of faith say it with
your chest say crazy or faith
and we have been walking um
systematically through things that
i told um one of my teammates that
helped me run the church this morning i
was like i
don’t want to preach a series that
sounds good and people can’t live out
i’m sick of ineffective church
i’m sick of people impressing you with
their knowledge and wisdom from the
platform and they’re like oh my god look
at them they’re amazing but you do not
know how to know how to go home and do
anything with what they talked about
and i’ve made a decision that i want to
have effective ministry
not just
impactful or big ministry
and and we’re at the place right now as
a church that god has exceeded all of
our expectations of what we thought
church would be in ministry would be and
all this other stuff and so now i’m at a
point it’s like what
is the vision for what god wants to do
and god’s like michael
help it work in people’s lives because
if literally 10 000 of y’all got the
concept of crazy faith and crazier faith
it would change everybody say the world
not just your family not just your my
crazy faith has changed
hundreds of thousands of people’s lives
because of one person believing
if one can put a thousand to flight
and two can put ten thousand to fl
that’s multiplication y’all i don’t know
how long it’s been since you’ve been in
a math class but one being a thousand
two being ten thousand something
multiplied what if we could get ten
thousand people
that ain’t even all y’all watching right
now that ain’t even all y’all on the
rebroadcast like but just ten i don’t
need everybody i don’t need the fans i
just need a few fighters
i just need about ten thousand of y’all
to really get these concepts
and so a part of this teaching has been
very very very very cheap code teaching
i want to give you the cheat codes to
faith
like i don’t want to get up here and
impress you i want to give you tools to
be able to go back to your sphere of
influence and live everybody shout live
in crazy faith
so today
i’m gonna attempt that in another form
and i feel like
i’m just done in the series the past
four messages
really was one message it was the intro
the last four weeks was the intro
i’ve had so much in the holster ready to
ch
but the holy spirit said but you can’t
give them that until you give them this
so we talked about our anointed
imagination we’ve talked about believing
for more than what we can see right now
we’ve talked about getting the the the
friends or the circle of faith we talked
about these different things but today i
want to take it to the next level and um
i think the the way that i want to start
this out is by a little story time
um
so
2020 was a challenging year for
everybody but um
it especially got a little wonky
when my father the captain tom todd aka
man of god
uh
he got a he got hit with covid like
for real
like
on a ventilator and like
like breathing treatments and all this
other stuff and my dad is my hero so
this is my first time in 34 years of
living that i saw my father in a
compromised position
and it messed with me
it was like
hold on
i could live on the earth and my daddy
not be here and like i know that
but it never was like
real
and
one day he started coughing really bad
and it just kept going and i just
couldn’t get that image out of my hand
and when when life
gets in the balance of people you love
you start reevaluating everything
[Applause]
so in 2020 i started reevaluating
everything this is not a sad story he’s
still living and he’s sitting here on
the front row i know some of y’all they
say that he he up he moving he good
okay
but but it gives backstory to what i’m
about to tell you
so um
what ended up happening was i really
started thinking about what would bless
my family and for father’s day i’m a
gift giver my dad’s a real generous
person and i learned that from him and
for father’s day me and natalie were
talking about like what could we give
my dad that would really bless him
and my dad never wants anything for
christmas he always says something
generic like i just want y’all to love
each other i was like they don’t sell
that at walmart
like like like and he always says stuff
like this but my dad is the biggest
family guy you could ever imagine like
he just loves bringing people together
and especially our family so um
me and natalie said what could we give
my dad for
father’s day and it is no secret that um
and i love being able to live
transparently in front of our church god
has for some reason chosen to bless me
and that personally through books and
through being an author i i could have
never seen this um but god has been so
gracious to us financially through
selling books um relationship goals they
told me in in basically a year and a
half has sold over 800 000 copies
y’all
i don’t even know
what that even means except they sent me
a couple checks that i
praise god for
and um
for some reason they told me that this
week crazy faith is third week on the
new york times bestseller book and i
just want to say thank you
cause it’s never been about it’s selling
book it’s just getting the messages out
like i want people to win in
relationships and all that other stuff
so in 2020 god blessed our family
financially and um and so instead of
going and buying a car that i saw or
buying something that that would be more
materialistic i was like i want to
create experiences so for
father’s day
we decided to take our entire family on
my wife’s side of the family and all of
my side of the family now if you don’t
have contacts i got five brothers and a
lot of them got wives and kids and i got
we took everybody on a trip out of the
country
okay
now that sounds great in theory
but we went on a family trip this past
weekend
and um it was 22 of us
that’s 22 flights
22 seats on the plane
that is a lot of
attitudes
a lot of different um
um
preferences
and we did it
i’m here to talk about it
and i need much prayer and counseling
after
this week
but when i went and i started to think
about taking 22 people to a different
country
the one thing that i did not fully plan
for is how much luggage
22 people required
in a different country
um
the number is 38 pieces
38 pieces of luggage
came on this darn trip with us
for four and a half five days
let me show them a picture of the family
um
happy together
and loving one another
look at us all at the beach it’s
beautiful isn’t it
let me show you a picture
of the luggage
just put it up
this
is one
of four vehicles
full
of luggage
38 pieces
now as i begin to examine my whole life
and why i decided to do this
i started to think
how 22 different people
brought 38 pieces of luggage
wheelchairs
baby strollers
backpacks
and all of them packed
for a journey they had not been on
because they had a vision of where we
were going
and there was 22 different visions
of what this trip would entail for them
and i could open up their luggage
and see what they had envisioned for a
journey they had not been on yet
and as i begin to look
at how valuable vision is i started to
think as i was putting all this luggage
in people’s room and by the end i was
throwing it in a room i didn’t care what
was in their thing i was like take your
luggage
if vision is valuable for vacation
how much more is vision valuable
for your victory
and i started to think about how
meticulous some of my family members
work
on the items they put in their luggage
because of the vision they had of their
family trip and let me be clear because
somebody thought i was gonna say
vacation it is not a vacation if your
kids come it is not a vacation if your
parents are there and if your other
parents is there it is a family trip
that’s just in my spirit
it’s only a vacation when it’s me and
that
my question today is
what is your vision for your marriage
what is your vision for your business
what is your vision for your ministry
what is your vision
for your finances
what is your vision for your children
not ethereal
not i have been thinking about that
hand it to me
in black and white ink
because it’s not a vision
until it’s written
so if i ask you today what is your
vision
for your health
most people have more vision for the
vacation they want to take
than having vision for the purpose that
will bring you into victory
so today
i want to talk to you about vision
because if we don’t understand how
valuable vision is for every part of
your life you will not be able to use
crazy faith for what you’ve been called
to do the only reason we’re standing in
this building today
is because i use my anointed imagination
in the presence of god and he gave me a
vision that watch only became a vision
when i wrote it down
today i’m pointing back to a document i
wrote 37 days after i became the lead
pastor of this church because that’s
when it had the ability to actually
happen in the earth
i just want to talk to the people who
have visions for vacations but don’t
have vision for their victory
proverbs 29 18 this gonna be tight and
right today
proverbs 29 18.
it the funny thing is right now some of
y’all are saving money for vacations
that are years away
some of you have planned for things
i know i’m in your business right now
some of you have a vision for inadequate
objects
that will be in your life this year and
out of it next but have no vision for
your emotional stability
you have no vision to getting counseling
and you know you’re jacked up
you have trauma after trauma but you
stand in line and wait on internet rooms
to buy clothes
but you won’t pay that money to
talk through the grief
that continues to weigh you down
you have a vision
for the house you want to live in
but no vision
for the house your body that you live in
every day
you tearing down walls
eroding foundations
oh y’all
[Laughter]
you let anybody touch this house
[Applause]
you let somebody slide in the dms
end you up on your
back and you don’t even know they last
night
he to do with the with the with the
charger
you only know his car type
you have more vision
for the outfit you gonna wear on your
birthday
[Music]
then you do for the kids that god
trusted you with
you won’t even do your homework with
them
they’re asking you for help
and you don’t even you haven’t taught
them one bible scripture
it doesn’t mean you’re a bad person
it just means you may
have not figured out the value
of vision
and there are so many people that look
like they have vision but they
i’m not even going
y’all not ready for it yet i got to
build you up to it because some of y’all
is already about to check out proverbs
29 18 cause i thought why the scripture
passed i’m like give me the bible let me
help your um bless itself
the only reason i feel so passionate
about this because i figured it out
i am the product
of living a life full of vision
and a lot of times i can pray for people
that will never get what i prayed for
them for
because they don’t have vision for
themselves
so i can’t agree for god to multiply
what isn’t there
there’s so many times that my prayers
can’t do nothing past what you believe
past what you’ve seen for yourself
i can pray it but it just hits the
ceiling comes back down because you
don’t even believe it you don’t even
think it’s possible for yourself and
that’s why i’m trying to raise your
expectation in this series and i want
everybody to get a vision somebody shot
at me vision
say it like you mean it
say vision
proverbs 29 18 king james version i’m
going to like four different
translations so this can ring in your
mind forever where there is
no
vision
the people
perish
it does not say where there is no vision
the people just don’t get all the things
that god had for them
they die
can i give you the michael living
translation let me remix this whole
thing without vision something dies that
god wanted to live
wow
where there’s no vision god was like man
i wanted something to live right there
man i wanted something to flourish right
there man i want to do but they wouldn’t
get a vision from me
so when there’s no vision
i command that to be a desolate place
where there’s no vision it won’t
flourish
where there’s no vision it cannot feed
others with life
i want you to think of every area in
your life
and ask yourself do i have vision there
i’m not talking about a dissertation of
16 points and all this stuff a written
down vision of what you want in that
area of your life what god has said
about you in that area what he said in
his word about that area of your life
get a
vision
without vision something dies that god
wanted to live
in other words this is what i see all
over the world many people are existing
but not living
if i look at the state of most people’s
life they’re in a state of existence
they’re not flourishing
they’re not joyful they’re not
overwhelmed with the goodness of god
they’re not they’re existing that is a
sure sign that there is an area where
there is no
vision
let’s go to proverbs 29 18 the english
standard version esv
where there is no prophetic vision
the people
cast off restraint
see i love this version of it because
prophetic means it’s telling something
in the future there’s something that i’m
not at yet but there’s a prophetic
vision a vision is something that is not
where i’m at but it’s up ahead and i
want everybody to know that in your life
there is a plan that god already has
that is up in your future i’m not there
yet but it looks good up there better
than it does right here
but if i don’t get an image of that
prophetic vision
i cast off restraint or let me remix it
this is a passage remix for you when you
don’t see it before you see it
people stop caring
i cast off restraint if you don’t see it
and get a vision of the prophetic future
before you get there you stop caring
about stuff
some of y’all do not care about
relationships that are around you
because you don’t know your future
those people are supposed to help you in
another season and you’re mean to them
right now
oh
so you stop caring well it don’t matter
if i forgive them they’re the linchpin
to the next thing that god wants to do
in your life but you have no prophetic
vision you don’t see nothing up ahead
and so you stop caring
there are so many areas of our life when
you find an area where you don’t care
it’s linked to what the vision is for
that area
uh-huh i’m trying to help you reverse
engineer this some of y’all do not care
about how you
work at your job
you don’t care no more you come in late
you steal stuff
it’s just paper clips you’re never going
to be a boss huh
i see right now that you you’ll never be
the one signing for everything
it’s just sharpies it’s just printing
and you printing out your vision
statement
because pastor mike told you to do it on
the company’s paper
well it’s for god
go buy a printer go to kinkos
see i’m getting down to the details
because it exposes
that you don’t have a prophetic vision
of stewardship
you don’t see yourself owning
and leading and doing things that god
has called you to do so you stop
caring
and
if you stop caring about it
that
means you get sloppy about how you
present what god has called you to do
and i just feel like we’re in the age of
the sloppiest christians in
history who stopped caring about what
your post may
do
to the kingdom
you don’t care
well this is how i feel
the very person you just offended
it was part of your destiny to reach
them
but because you don’t have a vision of
the future
you stop caring today
and the very people who muted you
the message that god was going to give
through you six weeks from now was going
to actually minister to them
because you don’t have a prophetic
vision of who god created you to be and
the level of strength you are in the
sphere of influence that he’s put you in
and that you may not have a big platform
but god gave you a platform to reach
people right where you are because you
do not have a prophetic vision you stop
caring
and god says this is why you need a
vision
look at it in the nlt version
[Music]
proverbs 29 18 when people do not accept
divine guidance they run wild
there are areas that is just wilding out
in your life
because you have not accepted the divine
guidance of god
just
just doing what you want to do
how you want to do it
and god’s saying um
let me just put it in a passage remix
if it’s not governed by the word it’s
going to be wild
if it’s not governed by the word
it’s gonna be wild
this is why for all my people still
searching in relationships like
if you do not allow the word of god to
govern your relationship
and y’all just living together and doing
married stuff together and making all
the things and doing all the things
you’re not a bad person
it makes logical sense
but because it’s not governed by the
word of god and what he said
what ends up happening is stuff just
starts going wild
now you actually finally get married
after seven years of playing house
and he don’t want you no more
it’s not the same why because you were
in a season living outside of the
submission to the word of god and now
you got what you thought you wanted but
there is no actual exclusivity because i
already had that
already been there and now i smell your
breath in the morning
and now i got to deal with your attitude
and your family and all that stuff i’m
just telling you it goes wild
when you don’t let the word govern your
life
i already came and amen myself a lot
before this service
so i don’t need anybody’s help i am
going to give you
what is going to help you
reach the vision in your life okay
let me give it to you in the last last
um message version and this one jacks me
up every time proverbs 29 18 the message
version
if people can’t see what god is doing
they stumble all over themselves
if you don’t get a vision to see what
god is doing
you are going to keep tripping
so the way i want to say this in the
passage remix is get vision
and stop tripping
a lot of the things you
is cause you didn’t clearly know where
you were supposed to step
you ever been somewhere and you
distracted by everything and you look at
that’s when you can make a mistake
it’s because you had no clear vision
and so today
i want to help everybody
get clearer vision i told you a couple
weeks ago about the frame of your faith
and like this this thing where you go
from imagination put it on the screen
real quick because i want everybody to
see this because i’m working a
progression all the way to christmas
we’re crazy until christmas by christmas
i pray oh that god ignites something on
the inside of you that changes you
forever but this is the progression we
go from imagination which is the
spiritual womb and then we cross over to
vision and that’s what we’re talking
about today it’s the receipt or the
evidence the of what’s to come
prophetically that god says then you
move over to hope and hope is the fuel
for your faith and then you move over to
the crazy faith believing god can do it
and then you move over to believing
beyond and that’s crazier faith a lot of
us are still way over here
in imagining what god could do
today i want you to take a big step
everybody say a big step
and i want us to step into vision
how do i know it’s a vision pastor mike
thank god for his word rebecca tutu
then the lord answered me and said
write
the vision
and make it plain on tablets
that he may run
who reads it
write this point down vision is not
valid until it’s written down
it’s not vision in your head
if it’s in your head it’s not a vision
it’s still an imagination
it only becomes a vision
when it’s what written down
now i ask the question again
what’s your vision for your family
if it’s not written down
it’s your imagination
what’s your vision for your health
what’s your vision for your business
what’s your vision for your family
what’s your vision for your singleness
because without a vision for your
singleness guess what you gonna do run
wild
[Music]
cast off restraint stop caring
what’s your vision for your purity
what’s your vision for your friend group
what’s your vic ask somebody right now
what’s your vision
no ask him right now
and the crazy thing about this is why i
started off with the vacation if i told
you tomorrow that we were going to maui
you are automatically would have a
vision of what you was about to be doing
in maui how do i know cause you would
start preparing and packing based on
what your vision was
and what people have not done is started
preparing and packing based on what the
vision god has given them is
so um
write it down
get in prayer
and whatever god shows you what are you
gonna do
write it down
but i’m going to spend time specifically
praying this week
and when i get in there and i just put
on the top of the paper
family
i’m just going to literally put family
on the top of the paper
and i’m gonna ask god give me vision for
my family
not compared to somebody else uh oh
not not not in competition with these
idea
god
give me vision
for my health
i’ma tell the truth today
um january 6
i weighed
264 pounds
this year 2021
and i’ve always i’ve admitted it
publicly i’ve always had this like
teeter-totter see-saw relationship with
my weight if i’m feeling good i eat
if i’m feeling bad i eat
if if things is if things ain’t looking
good i eat
if things is going really really good
time to celebrate
leslie
like that was my only options like
it’s date night
eight
i’m alone in a time of solitude
like
god told me maybe seven years ago six
years ago
that the level of this ministry
would only be able to go to the level
that my body could take it
he gave me a vision of myself being
healthy
but i didn’t focus on it
so i stopped caring
and i was like as long as i can dress my
body
your boy be fat and fly
it don’t even matter
i’m gonna dress it right it might be a
couple mo but
when i stepped on that scale
in january
the conviction of god came over me
he said i gave you a vision
and you just gonna ignore it like this
what i want to do in your life for
transformation church and transformation
i gave you a vision
and you have literally ignored you’re
the heaviest you’ve ever been you’re the
most unhealthy that you’ve ever been and
you’re the most anointed that you’ve
ever been
oh you know you can be anointed and
unhealthy
oh did you know you could be on a big
platform and literally eroding the thing
that god told you to do
i said and this was the moment
i said god
i wrote down health on a piece of paper
i don’t know how to do this
will you help me
get healthy
and all i did was put a picture of
myself on somebody else’s body
see this is
see y’all trying to be so spiritual
i had to write the vision down this was
me making the vision plain
i found somebody who had the body
i needed to
have and i just put my smile because
this could stay
i put it on a different
and i literally wrote help me god
and over the course since january i
stepped on the scale this morning
i was 221 pounds i’ve lost 42 pounds
y’all
42 pounds
now watch
thank you
this is my first time wearing a shirt
without a you know saying i could turn
all the way around god bless you
guys
but what i’m saying to you is
this didn’t come because i imagined it
the reason that it started moving is
because i got a vision
and i’m going to tell you in a second
how that vision helped me all the way
through
but in every area of your life i’m
challenging you this week get a big
piece of paper
and write down the areas of your life
and ask god for
vision
rebecca 2 2 and the message version i
love this and god answered write this
write what you see that’s all god’s
asking you to do write what you see
write it
write it out in big
block letters
so that it can be read on the run
this vision message is a witness
pointing to what is coming
when you write
the vision down
it gives it permission
to actually come
what is coming is me being healthy
what is coming is my marriage
flourishing what is coming is me
actually in a marriage a shout out to my
single people what is coming is this
church being stronger than ever what is
coming is me not being addicted to
anything what if y’all don’t even hear
me
what is coming is me being able to bless
other people the way that god has
blessed me what is coming see when you
get a vision
it points to what
is coming
and for most of us
we don’t have a vision
see vision gives imagination permission
to exist on the earth
vision
when you write it down
gives what you saw in your imagination
permission to actually access the earth
i don’t know why god did this but after
he created for them six days
he decided he would do nothing else on
the earth without me and use help
me and use without our participation
now if i was god i’d be like they be
tripping
i tell them to do something they don’t
do it
i ask them to believe they don’t believe
so why in the world i’m waiting on them
and i’m all powerful
he says it makes more sense for me to
get glory if i use something that
doesn’t have the ability to make it
happen
and i partner with them
i use the foolish things to confound the
wise and i show a testimony through mike
todd’s life through amber lee’s life
through gary mcintosh’s life through
brenda’s life through lisa’s life
through roberta’s life i’mma use them
and god says i’ll do nothing on the
earth without one of my children
so he says take it from imagination
and bring it to vision
because when it gets written down on
paper now it has permission to actually
show up on the earth
i’m giving y’all cheat codes right now
and some of y’all are sitting there like
okay so what am i supposed to do write
it down
[Applause]
excuse me i don’t even know how
write it down
if god told you you would be
living in a different city
and your bills would be paid and you
would work at that job in that loan
write
it
down
and the crazy thing is y’all scared
i didn’t say scared squirt
you’re scared
that if you write it down
and it doesn’t happen
somehow god’s not good
or you don’t hear god
[Music]
i’m giving you the cheat code and you
scurve
and this is the thing you got to
understand and one thing i came to grips
with a long time ago number one i don’t
have to protect god’s reputation
some of y’all think y’all real strong
god was here before you
and he gonna be here after you
and kingdoms have risen and fallen and
the name of jesus is still being
proclaimed all over the earth
you cannot protect his reputation
so take that
off your back
and the other thing that you need to
understand
is that when you walk around scared it’s
the only thing that can limit god from
doing miracles
when you don’t believe
can i prove it to you in jesus life
he’s doing miracles all over
but he goes back to his hometown
and he literally like if i’m at my
hometown this is where i want to do the
most like i’m coming home it’s a
homecoming i want to bless my people
this is my people
and because they were familiar with him
ain’t that mary’s boy
we know they sisters and brother
they could not get over his humanity
so they missed his divinity
and literally the bible says and he left
there only doing a few miracles
because of the people’s unbelief
stop being scared and trying to protect
god
write
it
down practical example eight years ago
representing god to the lost and found
for transformation in christ was not a
thing
nobody was walking around with represent
merch
nobody was was writing represent on
walls and garages
i had a vision
that god gave me
now when i showed up in aruba with my
whole
family i seen somebody in a different
country
wearing a bootleg version
y’all missed it
so you thinking about the bootlegger all
that looks like they took something that
was in my head and that i wrote down and
it became a vision and i started saying
it out loud and printing it on jackets
and putting it on things and saying it
every sunday and now it’s in a different
country where somebody else has adopted
the vision
to their own lives
on a bad quality print
they didn’t care
because
the vision in me
the vision in you
ain’t just for you
what god’s placed on the inside of you
is not so that you
can be good
it’s so that others
can be able to know what’s possible
when you get a vision from god
so let me help you understand this
bring my luggage
i want everybody to look at every area
of your life
at every area
and i want you to see
if you look like you have vision
or if there’s actually vision in that
area of your life and this is super
practical and next week i’m taking you
to a whole nother level but i’m just
trying to build in the value of vision
because you don’t need crazy faith
for for a place that does not have
vision
the only reason that i had to believe
god is because god had given me a vision
for something and what i’m trying to
give you right now is the value of
having a vision in every area of your
life everybody say every area of my life
yeah
so when i look at
all this luggage i’m just trying to
recreate
what i experienced this past week with
my family
this is what it looked like us in the
lobby of that hotel
yep strollers
wheelchairs
duffel bags suitcases yeah bring the
wheelchair yup
that was a struggle um
yup kids
i asked myself several times whose kids
are these and four of them were mine
like it was just
it was a lot dinosaur bags all kinds of
stuff yes
this was ridiculous
and the crazy thing that i thought in
the picture i got in my head
is what if i prepared for the trip
what if i prepare i put everything on
we ready to go
oh my duffel bags
everything ready
let me get
let me get everything
ah come on
come on some of the luggage was faulty
too
[Laughter]
this is what i look like
personally coming off
the plane
but do you know
i spent
fifteen hundred dollars
paying for luggage to get to aruba
like
now
because of all the stuff that’s going on
they don’t let you have free luggage
like that goes under
you gotta pay 30 dollars a bag
and if it’s over a certain weight
it’s a 125
dollars
yeah almost cussed
do you know how frustrating it would
have been
to get to aruba
and open up
these suitcases
for them to be empty
this
is what most of our lives look like
that god says i’m ready to do something
with you and you look packed
and you you look ready
but until i open it up
that’s when i see it’s actually
vacant
and today
i just need to ask you
do you have vacant vision
everything that i have on
has nothing in it
my family
no vision
for my children
yeah
it looks good unicorns imagination all
this other stuff
no vision
every one of these suitcases
has nothing in them
this could be a picture of our church
family picture
vacant vision
that’s what i’m titling today’s message
because i do believe
that there is
a void
that has to be filled up
with vision from god
and if we don’t take this seriously
we end up wasting the faith that god
wants us to be able to have see when
everybody packs
i pack from here
i’m not in aruba packing
i’m packing in my current situation
see i don’t pack
for the season i’m in
i pack for the weather i’m going to
i don’t pack i’m trying to help somebody
get the importance of a vision i don’t
pack for the location i’m in i pack for
the location i’m going to i don’t pack
for the time zone i’m in i pack for the
time zone i’m going to i don’t pack for
the culture that is around me
i pack for the culture i’m going to i
don’t pack for this place
i pack for the prophetic vision
that god has given me
and my question to you is
why is the vision vacant
why is it empty
why when somebody asks you about what
god wants to do in the next two years of
your life you say stuff like i don’t
even think that far i don’t even
i got too much going up
hold on
vision is valuable
write this down in a point
vision is prepared from here
not there
i’m preparing
for what transformation is going to be
not from here
i am preparing
for the level i let me just say it right
now
part of the vision that god told me when
we started this church is that
transformation church would be
multi-ethnic
multi-generational multiplying and then
it’s this last one that been on my
nerves
multi-campus
i have fought that
with everything in my being
because he’s done the multi-generational
he’s done the multiplying he’s done the
multi-ethnic
but the multi-canvas do we really gotta
i like tulsa
i like right here
but god said i need you to start packing
right now
y’all missed it
i need you to start packing right now
for where i’m about to take you
so slowly but surely i came back and
told my team i was like y’all
get ready
we going into a different season
get ready
i gotta start
i gotta start preparing the teams
differently
we gotta start thinking differently we
gotta think outside the box
of just opening the building could the
prophetic pause that god put us in
be the very thing that we needed
to start getting ready
to see the next thing god’s saying fill
it up wherever it’s vacant
wherever there’s nothing
wherever you have not gotten a prophetic
vision somebody say fill it up
[Music]
i may not even use it in the next season
but i will be caught
with more than enough
but not enough y’all don’t hear me
we may not
we may not see i need to stop yelling
but somebody say fill it up
this
is prophetically what your life should
look like in this next season
i’m going to the rack of revelation
whatever you want
i’m going to bring it before you
in intercession
and god i’m gonna fill the places of my
life
with the vision that you give i’m gonna
fill my kids life
with vision of who they can be in the
future
i’m not gonna let them sit here and deal
with the same devils i dealt with all my
life
they gonna have a different vision i’m
i’m prophetically i’m doing this but
this is what’s about to start happening
i’m not gonna stay here and deal with
these traumas and never be delivered and
then what i don’t
actually confront gets passed on no
devil we are about to actually do
something about this what should happen
is that wherever you have vacant vision
should get so filled up
that when it comes time to close it
see when i really pack
you don’t just close it
hold on but then god you say what
oh see so some of y’all y’all got the
vision six years ago
and you thought he was done speaking
but god’s saying to you i got more for
you
you heard one part of it
you saw one part of the journey
but i got something else for you that i
want to do about your business about
your family about your emotional health
about your spiritual health about you
about your
forgiveness
all that weight you’ve been carrying
around
some of y’all need to trade out some
stuff in your luggage right now you
actually need to make room for the
vision of god you’ve been carrying
people and things that have been
hindering your vision
when you get god’s vision in there
some of y’all
are gonna need help
being able
to carry all the things
that god has placed in you you know why
we have such a great team at tc
because the vision
that god has given me
is bigger than what i can carry by
myself
[Applause]
see any smart person would come and say
just get another bag
and and i would if i had somebody
willing
to carry it
but many of us
do everything we can with our own vision
because we haven’t found anybody else
that’s willing to actually carry their
part of the vision too
yeah
yeah yeah
it’s one of those things that i’ve i’ve
been sitting here and um
i’ve been reflecting on how good god has
been to give me people
to link arms with
who are visions aligned
like he told them something in
california
but told me something in tulsa
and told them something in colorado and
told them something up the street but we
never met before and god’s linking
people to be able to carry vision
together because it’s bigger than me and
it’s bigger than we it is what god wants
to do in the earth right now and he’s
looking for people
who would actually
get vision write it down
and be willing to say
the area of my finances is vacant
but god will you fill it up somebody say
fill me up
say it again fill me
hold up brent come sit on this with me
bro
this
is what having the right people in your
circle looks like
this is last week’s message
it’s having a circle of faith because
can you use it from that side okay use
it from that side hold on get in front
get in front brent get in front because
now i’ll put my whole body weight on it
because
okay and you you close it up okay you
got it okay cool
it looks the same
it looks exactly the same
as it did when it was empty
but until you uh there’s some weight on
it
there’s some weight when you get a
vision from god i can say it and you can
say it but when you put something
there’s some weight on it and what god
is saying is that he wants you to get a
vision
[Applause]
so that his weight or his glory
can be a part of your life
we had one bag on this trip
the the limit was 55 pounds
there was one bag on this trip that my
beautiful wonderful amazing wife packed
that was 82 pounds
it cost me 230 dollars
going
and coming back
but what she said to me messed me up
it was all gia’s stuff our new baby
she said michael
everything in that bag
is essential
and when she now i don’t know all the
little the little cleaning products and
all of the little things and the zippies
and the wrappers and the different but
it was heavy as hell
it’s heavy
but when she looked at me because she
packed the bag
and she had a clear vision of our baby
at the beach
and our baby in a hotel room without all
of the amenities she had a clear she had
put herself in a different country
sitting in our bedroom
and she knew when she said that to me
everything in there is essential
i said here’s my card woman swipe the
thing take the bag
why
because the vision that she had brought
clarity to how everybody else responded
to it
[Music]
[Applause]
some of you have been dealing with stuff
because you had no clarity to the vision
you’re having conversations about stuff
that you’re not even supposed to be
talking about right now
because there’s no clarity to the vision
let me just finish
my wife what she did is what i’m asking
everybody to do
see it before you see it
this week put on a blindfold
or close your eyes
i just gotta go extreme
and i put on a blindfold
and then i just start calling out areas
of my life where am i
spiritually
a year and a half from now
see it before you see it
where do you work a year from now
how much money is in the bank a year
from now
who are you helping a year from now
scratch that it ain’t even got to be a
year from now it can be a month from now
what are you doing about your health
next week
see it before you see it
when you start walking like this i
promise you if you make space
god will give you a vision
if you make space
god will give you a vision who are you
serving
how are you making a difference
who is being helped by the words god
gives to you
where are you sharing your testimony see
it
you’re riddled with anxiety right now
you would never share what’s going on
but see yourself standing up boldly and
confidently
saying you know what yeah i used to be
on every pill that was imaginable for
six years i could not go into social
settings without having a drink and
afterwards i needed a week to like see
yourself telling your testimony
see it
see yourself
standing up in front of your family
saying i forgive all of you
i have been holding
a grudge
and a burden against all of you for the
past nine years
and today my christmas present to all of
you
is to let you know that i’ve released
you of the dead
i love you
i believe in you and i want to start a
better relationship with you from here
right now that for somebody that
literally makes your stomach turn
but see it
see it before it happens
this
is
what vision
is
it is being able to see what god has in
the future
before you ever see it
in your present
i didn’t say sight
because sight is what i see with my eyes
open
but vision
is what i see with my eyes closed
this week
set aside time
and see
what god has for you
in the future and then make it a vision
and do what write it
down
first corinthians 2 9.
that is what the scripture means when
they say no i
has seen
no ear has heard
and no mind has imagined what god has
prepared
for those who love it’s already prepared
why don’t you just ask god to show you
it’s not like there’s some conjuring
that you have to do and some dance and
some perfect he asked me
ask me for vision
and i’ll give it to you
this is why i am so out of time but i
got to give somebody this so that we can
go write it down six advantages to
vision just write it down and i’m just
going to go through them cause this is
going to be the key number one advantage
to vision vision gives energy
some of you
are so
lethargic about everything because you
don’t have a vision
at the moment you get a vision
something comes into you
i can tell you i can be dead tired
sleep
and i get a melody or i hear something
in my mind i do music and i’ll hear
something my entire but i don’t need
coffee at that moment
i don’t need evan tony y’all know what
i’m talking about you get son it’ll be
three o’clock in the morning and my body
will say hold on i got a vision of what
song this could be i got a vision of how
that i will um song that we sing today
we were literally playing that in the
studio just going through some things
and i heard that
and i said oh play that back
and literally in that moment i literally
started saying i will and i started
knocking on the door of the the studio
and i mean we were dead tired that was
like one or two in the morning it was
i came alive
because i saw that song being ministered
on this platform
and this morning
they’re singing a song that was
imagination
and went to vision
because we started writing down the
words and we started marking down the
thing
and it gave me energy you need energy
to work out get a vision of yourself
healthy
you need an i don’t you need energy to
actually go to the
counseling because your marriage is on
the rocks right now
look at all of the couples that you’ve
been fantasizing for
and get that out of your mind and ask
god
who
are me
and charles supposed to be together who
are me
and latavia supposed to be together who
and let god give you a vision
me standing up here with my wife at
version one conference
hand in hand
was a vision god gave me
before we were engaged
that’s why we went through all the hell
we went through
it’s because it gave me energy
to actually do what was hard
because i had a vision vision gives
energy number two vision eliminates
excuses
when you get a vision excuses become
irrelevant
i do tons of stuff i don’t like doing
because of the vision that god’s given
me can i be hot with y’all humble open
and transparent
i don’t like studying to preach every
sunday
it is tedious work for me
i start on wednesday
to get to sunday and i’m working on
thursday and on friday and on saturday
and i’m tweaking up until 30 minutes
before service on sunday
every week
i hate it
but i will do it for the rest of my life
why
because of the vision
god has given me
i don’t have an excuse when god gives me
vision
[Music]
and this is why your excuses are louder
than your production
it’s because you don’t have a vision
but let’s eliminate excuses by doing
what getting a vision three
this is the advantages of vision vision
regulates who
or what you entertain
there are certain people i don’t even
fool with
because you would mess up the vision
god’s given me
you have no parameters
on who can take from your life and
deposit into your life because you don’t
have a vision for your life
that’s why you’ve been in 19
relationships in the past three years
it’s because you don’t have even a
vision of the person you want to be with
regulate
by getting a
vision
these are the advantage number four
vision illuminates exits
when you get a vision
you know
when to exit
you see that big old sign
this is what i see when i walk into
situations
do i need to go into this and and and
keep going or do i need to walk in be
like you know god bless y’all straight
to the exit
[Applause]
and some of us
stay in places and around things too
long
because we do not have a vision and
until you get a vision you don’t know if
this is an opportunity or an assignment
do you know what has happened as i’ve
gotten a vision my no and my yes have
become very clear
[Applause]
there are things y’all that would have
changed my my family’s life
that have been opportunities in the past
two years that i have clearly said no to
because it did not align with the vision
god gave me
and most of us are looking for
opportunities instead of assignments and
god says when you get a vision it
illuminates exits i have a friend who
wherever we go
the first thing he does he’s a six on
the enneagram the first thing he does is
find out where all the exits are
and i’m like bro you paranoid but what i
started to figure out when i talked to
him he is a little paranoid but what i
started to figure out when i talk to him
is that he’s always preparing for if
something happens
and i started to think about it and when
i looked at it
it says when crisis comes
if
you start running into things
if you have not
figured out where the exits are you
literally run into things instead of
running out of things
when
when chaos comes we run into wrong
relationships
we run into the things that we’re not
supposed to be in
and god’s saying i want you to know
where the exits are
so that you can have clear vision
and be able to walk out of stuff you’re
not supposed to be in number five vision
frustrates the enemy
when you get clear vision the enemy gets
frustrated
and this is why the enemy’s whole job is
to steal kill and destroy maybe your
vision
that’s why it didn’t work last time so
you don’t trust this time
and god’s saying but i came that you
might have life bring life back to the
vision
last one
vision produces endurance
when you get a vision
it’ll make you last
it’ll make you believe when nothing
seems
like it’s going the right way
i’m going to show you in scripture with
our example jesus and then we’re going
home
hebrews 12 2.
how do we do this how do we get a vision
and endure
we do this by keeping our eyes on
jesus
the champion that’s what we’re saying
today
who initiates
and perfects our what faith
we keep our eyes on jesus the champion
who initiates and perfects i love that
that he initiates he’ll give you a
vision
and then he’ll perfect it
initiates and perfects our faith because
of the joy awaiting him watch this this
is a live example of jesus enduring
because he had a vision because of the
joy awaiting him
he endured
the cross
disregarding its shame it didn’t matter
how much it hurt and how embarrassing it
was
now he is seated in the place of honor
beside god’s throne
god
in human form named jesus had a vision
of himself seated
next to god
and that made him endure all the crap he
had to go through
if you get a vision
it’ll make you endure every bit of crap
and in a generation that quits so
quickly
we talk about persecution we think
persecution is in the comments
ain’t no persecution in the comments
persecution is what’s happening to the
people in afghanistan when they say the
name of jesus and somebody’s getting
killed persecution is what’s happening
in these other countries persecution in
the comments
god said you’ll really be able to endure
when you get a vision
the things i’ve had to endure in this
last season of my life
i’ve only been able to last
because i had a vision
stand up all over the place at your
house
today
i wanted to challenge every area in your
life that has vacant vision
this is not one you listen to and then
just come back next week
you have homework
you got homework
and guess what you’re responsible for
what you heard
don’t be complaining to god god i’m just
waiting on you i’m gonna wait on you he
said i told you what to do
[Music]
i told you what to do
get a vision
write it down and make it plain
so it can be read and then this is the
key to all of it
let god refine the vision
as he sees fit
well this is what i wrote down
i wrote down that i was going to impact
the world through music when i was 15
years old
i wrote it like that was the vision i’m
gonna impact the whole world through
music
and god said can i refine that
you’re gonna impact the whole world
but it’s gonna be through preaching
first
i didn’t i didn’t see that in my vision
but you gave me something to work with
you wrote down the part that you saw
you wrote down the thing that
illuminated in your heart
and because you obeyed my word
now i can refine it
and tweak it
and cross out things
and illuminate them all i’m saying is
you can do something this week
to start moving in crazier faith
hands lifted i want to pray for you
every service i feel an anointing to
impart
like i don’t want to just pray like
these are things i’m teaching from that
god has allowed me to master and to
really live out
and today i’m going to pray that that
that courage and boldness to write down
what god says
would jump off on everybody that would
have the spirit to receive it hands
lifted come on somebody’s about to get
this right now

area is supposed to do for
transformation kids all over the world
not here in tulsa but i’m talking about
transformation kids in india and dubai
and out y’all see i’m i’m not playing
with people with little things what if
we get a vision
of what
multi-generational ministry looks like
bishop gary
and we can talk to pastors all over the
world
to show them how to transition and work
together what if we get a vision
for a church
that doesn’t just get resources off a
tithing offering
but we have a business model
that changes the economics of a city
y’all
that we can build our own communities
and we can build our own grocery stores
y’all don’t oh my god see i gotta get
around people with faith cause when i
start getting a vision
most people
told me that where we are today was
impossible
but i had
i had
[Applause]
can i prove it
it was written down
i stand
[Music]
in
the vision
that god gave me
god wants every person
to be able to stand in a different
season
and say god
did this
i can’t take credit
for what was impossible in one season
but today
i can look at everybody around the world
and say it’s only crazy
until it happens
so
from now on
next week
you should have vision
in areas of your life
that right now are vacant
you’re not bad god said just ask me
ask me for vision
and i’ll give it generously without
finding fault in you
so our prayer all week
is this simple song
it just says fill me up say
fill me up
[Music]
until i
oh
[Music]
there’s something right there
said it fill me
with vision for the future god until i
vision for where i serve
vision for my company my family my
business my health
[Music]
[Applause]
somebody needs vision
for eternity
see the crazy thing is we can be praying
for vision for all this stuff and it’s
temporal
but the reason that jesus sent
uh god sent jesus to the cross was so
that we could give a prophetic vision
of eternity
that we could be singing holy holy holy
around the throne
and worshiping god all day
i don’t know about you but i i’ve
envisioned my mansion in heaven and the
streets paved with gold y’all got to
read your bible it’s it get really good
in the future for us
but to see that vision
there’s something you need to do you got
to ask jesus to come in and be your
savior and your lord
[Music]
and today i’m telling you it’s the
greatest decision i ever made
it took me from being somebody who was a
liar a manipulator somebody who was
addicted to pornography somebody who was
a really bad person on the inside
not because i just wanted to be but it
was the sin nature of the world we live
in things came in i adapted them i grew
them i i let them let them control my
focus
and god said can i give you a new vision
of what i see in you
[Music]
and when i accepted jesus as my personal
lord and savior according to romans 10 9
i just confess that he was the who he
said he was and i believe he lived and
he died for me it said at that moment by
grace through
faith
by grace not works not effort not energy
by grace through
faith
i was saved
my eternity was secure
and today
i just believe there’s tons of people
that are watching who want to get a
vision for their life here but this is
temporary
the bible says it’s like a vapor it’s
like it’s it’s this quick
but for the rest of eternity get a
vision
of you worshiping god
and being in that great cloud of
witnesses
that group of people
who are part of the the the cheering
section of faith for everybody else
god says he wants to write your name in
the lamb’s book of life
on account of three if you want to make
jesus christ your personal lord and
savior and get a vision of yourself free
get a vision of yourself not burdened
down by all the things that have been
trying to trap you
i want you to lift your hands
it’s going to change your life forever
and not just yours but your family’s
life one you’re making the greatest
decision of your life two i’m so proud
of you but more than that god is going
to write your name oh he’s going to do
what
he’s going to make it a vision for your
young
i’m preaching this thing right now it
says he writes the your name in the
lamb’s book of life
[Music]
three if you want to make the decision
for jesus lift your hands all over the
world
their hands in this building
i see you
i see you
there are people online you can put your
hands down
i’m so proud of you
what you’re gonna do
is just ask god to fill you up
that’s it
and at transformation church we say this
prayer all together for the benefit of
those who are coming to christ we’re a
family here
and people
32 000 plus people have made this
decision this year
oh that’s something we can
i said 32 000 people have made the
decision that you’re about to make this
year

of this is something to be proud of
[Music]
