your faith to move your finances to the next level because god's getting ready to pour out wealth on his people like we've never seen before so that we can have impact in this present world so all the millionaires shout hallelujah that's what i'm talking about that's what i'm talking about it's going to be good anyway thank you jesus thank god thank god for your life thank god for this church go to the book of acts chapter eight verse one through eight and while you turn into it i wanna tell you about my dog pup and

you know you're not very creative when you get a dog and you name him pup he was just a puppy and mama said what are you gonna name him i said well let's call him pup so he he grew to be about that high but we still called him pup and he he was uh he was nice to us but he would terrorize the community so we had to keep him chained and a little i lived in a little raggedy house on the side of the hill on the back side of a mountain in charleston

west virginia and half of the house was on the mountain another half was supported by a four by four post and we had him tied to the post on the chain and when we we didn't know that he could break the chain until one day this young man came down there on the bicycle and he was moving real fast you know on the bicycle and that he's now in my he's been in my church gosh 40 years now but at that time i was just a little boy and we didn't know that pup could break

the chain but pump showed us that when what he wanted in front of him was bigger than what was behind him he broke the chain that held him and went to the next level and i i'm believing god for everybody in here to do some chain breaking in your life amen any chain breakers in the room tell somebody tell them i'm a chain breaker i want you to go to the book of acts uh eight verse one and if you want to make me feel real at home stand for the reading of the word uh

just because we stood for everybody else we might as well stand for god beginning at verse one i'm going to read eight simple verses i will extrapolate from uh the text uh i think i'm gonna i think i'm gonna just use pup as an example and and and and just call it chain breaker and look at somebody say i'm a chain breaker and saul was consenting unto his death and at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at jerusalem and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of judea and

samaria except the apostles and doubt devout men carried stephen to his burial and made great lamentations over him this is the embryonic stages of the development of the church the church hadn't hadn't even really come into the realization of who it really was it had power it had purpose but it didn't even understand itself fully it didn't have structure or order as for saul he made havoc of the church saul who would later become converted and be one of the greatest participants of the church had not come into the awareness of who he was so

the church who didn't know who he was was being persecuted by a man who didn't know who he was as for saul he made havoc of the church entering into every house and hailing men and women committing them to prison hauling men and women and committing them under prison therefore they were scattered abroad what they were therefore therefore therefore therefore because of the persecution therefore because of the persecution they were scattered abroad and went everywhere preaching the gospel then philip then philip then philip went then philip went down to samaria to the city of samaria

and preach christ unto them and the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which philip spake hearing and seeing the miracles which he did they they heard what he said they watched what he did for unclean spirits crying with a loud voice came out of many that were possessed with them and many were taken uh many taken with palsy and that were lame were healed and there was great what [Music] joy in that city chain breakers let's pray father in the name of jesus i pray that your presence and power would prevail in

this place today that your glory would emanate through the word of god that it would touch lives that it wouldn't just touch us but it would touch all that concerns us all that is around us all that we envelop i pray god that this would be the kind of yoke breaking thirst-quenching mind-renewing chain-breaking word that releases the captives and sets them free that heals the lame that binds up the brokenhearted i pray a special prayer for peoples who whose heart has been broken today and they bear a pain that no medicine can heal but today

in the name of jesus i pray that healing would break out in the hearts of not only this campus but every campus that is watching i speak healing and deliverance have your way in this place in the name of jesus we pray and i need everybody with the sound of thunder to shout amen you may be seated in the presence of god next time you introduce me bring it down like quite a bit you know bring the expectation level down to turn it down a little bit i'd rather you about there and that way if

i hit there i'm up but if you put it up there i i have to leave up like magic johnson to get there so pray for me somebody shout amen we are in the book of acts it has wrongly been called the acts of the apostles when in fact with careful study you will understand it is not so much the acts of the apostles it is in fact the acts of god it is the acts of god through the apostles in the early formation of the church this book is written by luke it is a

continuation of the gospel of luke and initially was not divided later it was divided from the book but it continues the thoughts of luke when he says the former treaties have i made in acts 1 1 the former treaties have i made oh theophilus of all that jesus began both to do and to teach the indication is that jesus began it but he is not finished of all that jesus began both to do and to teach into samaria judea and the uttermost parts of the earth it is just that the jesus that is doing it

now is not doing it through the body he initially did it through but rather than to do it through his physical body he is now doing it through his mystical body but it is still him there are very few occasions that we see the physical body and the mystical body in the same place like we do at the passover allow me to share what i mean at the passover service you see all aspects of the body of christ you see the physical body of christ and through the bread and the wine you see the memorial

body of christ serving the physical body of christ is serving the memorial body of christ to the mystical body of christ who is the church and they're all at the table together so the body of christ says to the body of christ it says take eat this is my body and we see all three manifestations of one body in one place had the enemy understood what i just said he would have never crucified the lord because when he crucified the lord he crucified the lord to get the body of christ out of the earth but

all the body of christ did was move from the physical body of christ into the mystical body of christ so that the work of god could continue and that's who you are your name is not james or robert or richard or angela or shaniqua no no your name yeah i gotta cover everybody this is an equal opportunity church say amen somebody that is not really your name your name is really christ jesus yes because when the father looks at you he does not see you as an individual he sees you as jesus christ because christ

has covered you in such a way that the truth of the matter is when christ was on the cross god didn't see his son he saw your sin [Applause] and so when he reacted to what he saw and christ was smitten of god confusing eli llama sabotage my god my god why is that forsaken me the reason that he felt forsaken is that he was covered up with you so that you could be covered up with him so that the life that you now live in the flesh you live by the faith of the son

of god who loved himself and gave himself a ransom for you i'll prove it to you so jesus tells you when you go to the father don't use your name because he can't see you but whatsoever you ask the father in my name that will i do so when you come to the father in the name of jesus it's only because you look like jesus for his blood is the perpetration of your sin and has so covered you that's why you can come boldly to the throne of grace you don't have to walk up with

your head down ashamed of your sins because your sins were judged on the cross you can come like the beloved son because you are covered with the beloved son and you gotta remember to use his name because somebody say say jesus say jesus say jesus say jesus say jesus when you come say jesus because you're wearing jesus and you're walking in jesus and you're moving in jesus and you're living in jesus in him i live in him i move in him i have my being [Applause] and the church is really trying to get his hands

around this whole notion of who they are and understanding themselves because the holy spirit has fallen on the day of pentecost in acts chapter 1 verse 8 and they have received this power this power from god which is so amazing and so incomprehensible that they will spend the rest of their lives understanding how to operate in this new dimension of the spirit they do not have deacons yet they do not have elders or pastors or apostles that will come with paul they just had power but power without structure is a dangerous thing oh do you

hear what i'm saying the holy spirit has fallen with such power in that chapter 1 and acts chapter 2 that whenever there were problems to arise they would all gather in jerusalem because they were afraid to get out of jerusalem because they didn't feel ready yet have you ever not felt ready yet and you knew god was going to do some amazing things in your life but you didn't have all your details together and you didn't have everything worked out yet and you felt like destiny was moving faster than revelation was in your life and

you were walking by faith and not by sight that was the feeling of the early church so whenever we don't know what to do we hang around what we know and whenever we hang around what we know too long god has to send something to get us to move because being a christian which they weren't even named yet at this point being a christian is not a monument it is a movement it is a movement it is a movement not a monument it's not a building it's not a denomination it's not a doctrine it's a

movement elevation is not a church it's a movement you understand thank you it's not about a building it's not about four walls it's not about where you sit in a building the vision of this church is a movement that's why you're called elevation which means we move we elevate we rise we escalate we move forward don't look for us where we used to be because we are elevation we will move on a brother we will walk on a brother we will rise on a brother if the enemy tries to attack us we will rise on

the devil because we are elevation we are like eagles we take to the air we rise above the storm come on elevation i'm talking about your church i'm talking about your church in all of your locations make some noise if you get ready to elevate in this place [Applause] the problem is fear will make a movement turn into a monument and most of our denominational entanglements just tell us where they stopped moving and we memorialize where god has been rather than to thirst to be where god is oh follow me because i'm going somewhere today

they told me that that this is the third service and i heard you all could handle it so i'm gonna drop it like it's hot in here okay you ready for this i'm getting ready to set it off in this place are you ready for me to set it off in this place [Applause] i'm getting ready to tell you that god has a way of shifting things getting us out of our comfort zone pushing us away from the familiar he forces us to scatter and that's exactly what this text is all about because in acts

chapter 8 the church that is trying to memorialize where god was is being pushed out of their comfort zone by the attack of saul out of the persecution of soul comes direction direction persecution persecution is direction sometimes you shout about the doors god opens but you ought to be shouting about the doors god closes [Applause] [Music] he will push you and what has happened up into the first eight ten years of the early church they kept coming back to the council at jerusalem because after all jerusalem is the epicenter of every of almost every major

religion in the world today claims its origin and root to go back to the city of jerusalem that is why the middle east has so much conflict because they're fighting over territory because jerusalem becomes jerusalem the holy city the city of peace the offspring and the progenitor of which three major religions claim heritage yet you must realize that jesus throws us a hint when he was crucified according to the book of hebrews outside of the city [Music] jesus by his crucifixion is already preaching to us that he's trying to escape religious order that he's breaking

up orthodoxy that he refuses to be left into the expected but he's gonna move in the unexpected and so when the book of hebrews said that he died without the city it means that he escaped the religious order to expose who he really was so that he wouldn't be stuck in the prison of religious ideology that's why some people can't handle elevation because you are unexpected you're out of the box you break all the rules you change the game you change the flow you broke the order look at you young folks and old folks and

you black folks and white folks and brown folk shouting and dancing and praising god elevation [Applause] [Applause] now you must understand that christianity was not popular then it didn't even have a name yet it wasn't until they got to antioch that they started to be called christians the early church was called the way and then later they were called the believers and eventually at antioch they were called the church and so this nameless group of jesus freaks were coming to jerusalem because that's where they had last spotted his glory whenever there was a dispute they

came back to jerusalem whenever there was confusion they came back to jerusalem and they kept huddling in jerusalem so god sent persecution to shift them i want to talk to everybody who's been persecuted and you've been thinking it was the devil if it was the devil god used him because god will often use the devil to shift you from one dimension to the next dimension that's why we glory and tribulation anybody can glory when things are going well but real believers glory and tribulation oh i appreciate all of you that are praising god because everything's

going right but the real praise goes to the people where all hell is breaking loose and you're still praising god anyway because god is shifting you through persecution [Applause] and the bible says that god sent persecution to jerusalem to scatter the church out of its comfort zone to make them move to the next dimension to get them out of monk's corner or creek or whatever you you see god has a way of ordering your steps in such a way that sometimes you have to pack your bags and flee your comfort zone to find your destiny

and that's what we're reading in the book of acts and the bible carefully cautiously almost as a footnote inserts that philip went down to samaria now let's talk about samaria it is not happenstance that philip was scattered to samaria god has unfinished business in samaria the gospel of saint john declares that jesus sat by the well a well sitting on a well i waited for that to sink in yes jesus is jacob's well israel's will and he's sitting on jacob's well and he's waiting for this one loose woman this woman i called her a loose

woman i called her loose forgive me maybe you don't like that but she had had five husbands in the inner society that that forbid that kind of king on she had five husbands and a situation you know some of us get into these situations it's not anywhere who is it he's not exactly uh we're friends so she had five husbands and a friend she came down to the well having been married five times and was living with the man on the sixth time and came down to the well and met the seventh man and when

she met the seventh man the search was over because he quenched the thirsting of her soul and set her free and liberated her and gave her the victory and you will remember that it was not her thirst that initiated the conversation but if you will study it back in the gospel of saint john you will find out that what provoked the initial conversation was not her thirst because she expected her thirst to be quenched by the well that he was sitting on but what started the conversation is his thirst he says woman i thirst she

did not know she thought she was a but the was a thirst quencher [Applause] misapplied and misallocated i will admit for the reason that she was always able to get somebody is that there was something in this woman that was designed to be a thirst quencher she just had not found the right thirst to quench [Applause] you missed that yeah sometimes it has to be the right man to bring out in you what's really down inside of you and none of those other men could really bring it out in the first place but when she

got to the seventh man the seventh man showed her why she was the way she was she was a thirst quencher you see she thirsted for water he thirsted for her because she was going to be the vessel that set it off you will remember that we don't know her name we don't know whether she's helen or jane we just know that she is a woman from samaria and god needed something to be planted in samaria so that there would be something to harvest in samaria no seed no harvest so the woman at the well

was the seed and philip goes down to collect the harvests are you with me so far come on they told me you was really smart in the third service so i could i could drop it in here you can handle it the woman at the well will secede now philippines goes down to samaria to collect the harvests i want you to get that in your spirit one i want you to get that some of the things that are wrong in you are only wrong because you haven't met the right man [Applause] that there is a

reason that you are the way you are and when you get the right piece of the puzzle in the right place everything will make sense if you work crossword puzzles you'll understand that you can't cram the right piece into the wrong place and some of you have been crammed into all kinds of places that you didn't really fit but when you find jesus you will find out why you are shaped the way you shape and you fall into place anyway so says the story that the woman who was at the well she dropped her water

pots look at her shifting occupations she dropped her water pots and went running into the city to tell all the men yeah baby tell all the men since she knew all the men she had influence with the men she had access to the men so the woman told all the me the men to come see a man she said let me show you what a real man is [Applause] so after church i want you to call all your exes and say don't do that don't do that this teaser i'm just teasing i'm just teasing i

don't want to have to get you out of jail just be cool just say illustration okay she says come see a real man who told me all things i had ever done and the men came out to see imagine in a mesogenic society means they don't respect women that god would use that which they do not respect to bring him respect [Applause] and the women sowed the seed and the women sowed the seed and the women sowed the seed and the women sowed the seed and the women sowed the seed i want to start a

revolution with every woman in this room come out of the shadows come out of the corner come out of the background stop feeling sorry for yourself in spite of all of your mistakes god is gonna use you to set it off i need some sisters that can set it off in this place yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah now now everybody in here that's a woman is a woman but then amongst the women there are real women there there are women i'm not talking to all you women who never did anything and never smoked

anything and never drinking anything and never went anywhere and never been in a club and you've always been a christian that's wonderful i'm not against you i'm proud of you i celebrate you but there's a reason that some of these broken women were called into the kingdom cause you're courageous because you're bold because you say what you think and let the chips fall where they may i want to raise up some sassy sisters in this room that can make some noise let me hear the sassy sisters set it off god is about to use what

was working against you to work for you [Applause] he's getting ready to take you to the next level so this is a water pot dropping moments leaving the lesser for the greater leaving the former for the latter she now runs into the city and says come see a man she planted a seed no wonder jesus waited for her he said i must need go to samaria i have to go to samaria and then didn't go to samaria he just met the woman from samaria [Applause] he met the woman from samaria because all he had to

go to samara for was to find a woman who was bold enough to set it off in that city and she planted a seed fast forward we have not heard anything else out of samaria since this one wild radical woman has started a little revival meeting that caused the men to see the prophets fast forward to acts chapter 8 when persecution arose in jerusalem all of a sudden it got so nasty saul was killing and imprisoning so many believers that philip says i'm going to guess what samaria because god had unfinished business in samaria something

had been planted in samaria time had passed and now philip goes to samaria the only problem with samaria is that simon the sorcerer had set up a camp in samaria and began to afflict the city see any time the enemy knows that god is going to do something great in your life in your city in your church he will always send simon the sorcerer to counteract what god is doing in your life what i'm trying to get you to see is the reason you're under attack is because god has started something in your life and

anytime the enemy sends wheat he will always plant hair y'all still with me you good you all right breathe in breathe out shout hallelujah cause something is about to happen in samaria samaria is up under attack by simon the sorcerer now i'm getting ready to go in for the kill simon has taken over the region and convinced him that he is some wonder simon has taken over the region now let me show you something about satanic attack the enemy likes to take over territories what the bible calls principalities they rule over regions over cities over

areas and the enemy has set himself up in samaria trying to stop the power of god from prevailing in the city and against all of these forces that have ensnared the city god sends philip glory to god god sends philip watch this i want to go deeper the enemy is over a region he sets up territories that's why we call him principalities he takes over regions the spiritual warfare that exists over charlotte is different from the spiritual warfare that exists over tulsa is different from the spiritual warfare that exists over chicago that's why you can't

use a charlotte weapon against a lego spirit you have to understand the warfare that exists over your city you remember when jesus went to the man who was filled with demons in gatherings and when he finally cast out the demons the demons said to jesus suffer us not to leave the region [Music] we've done so much work in this territory we don't mind if we have to change vessels but don't let us leave the region there's demonic warfare that takes over areas and certain areas are given over to certain types of perversities there are demonic

warfares that are over certain families and certain warfares have taken over certain families grandma got pregnant out of wedlock mama got pregnant out of what lock and now my daughter comes in the house and tells me she's pregnant that's a that's a spirit instead of reign over the territory my daddy was an alcoholic and i'm a drug addict and now my son has started getting high that's a regional territorial principality that didn't want to let the johnsons go they didn't want to let the wilsons go they didn't want to let the richardsons grow i know

you can't say anything but there are certain things that run in your family and you can say you can look at your sisters acting just like your auntie and your auntie's talking just like your grandmama and all of them got the same spirit and you want to break the chain oh my god oh my god i feel something i feel something i feel something i feel something i feel something touch your neighbor and say break the chain yeah that's why god save you to break the chain that's why pastor baptized you to break the chain

to bury who you used to be so you could rise up into who you're going to be he baptized you to break the chain that was holding you down in your life look at your neighbor say i'ma break this chain my uncle committed suicide my cousin committed suicide my brother committed suicide i feel the spirit of suicide but i'm going to break the chain look at your neighbor and say break the chain you don't even know what kind of chain it is but everybody in the room has got a chain that's got to break in

order for them to be free there's a chain that has to break in order for them to be delivered shout yes somebody i'll show you another chain abraham got to draw and when he got there he lied and told the king that his wife was his sister okay at the time that abraham told the lie about sarah isaac wasn't even born yet i asked for it here comes isaac with his wife tells the same lie that his father told a lie that he never even heard but there was a chain between abraham and i said

so that the chain was there and the same lie was there and the same struggle was there but something is about to happen let me go deeper it used to be when you went to the doctor the doctor only examined you now when you go to the doctor he wants to know did your grandmother have heart verb heart trouble did your grandfather have high blood pressure did your grandfather have diabetes did your father die diabetes why does it matter what my grandmother had she's dead i'll tell you what matters there's a chain link between you

and your grandmother there's a chain link in the health of your body and the wealth of your mind and the way you handle emotions there's a chain between the two if grandma was prone to depression and mama was prone to depression and now you're sitting up here you couldn't feel it at 15 but now at 23 you're starting to feel depressed that's not your depression that's your grandma's depression trying to cook up a link between who you are and who they were but i came to serve notice on the devil the devil is a liar

you've reigned terror over the city long enough you've wreaked havoc long enough you've held us in bondage long enough i am not gonna let my daddy's devil defeat me oh hell no there's gonna be a chain to break in this place today i don't know who i'm preaching to and i don't know who god sent me here for but something is about to break in your life like it never broke before and i command the spirit of release to happen in this place i need about 60 seconds of crazy praise in this place [Applause] praise

him praise him praise him praise him praise him praise him in defiance praise him with attitude praise him with conviction praise him with tenacity praise him like your main business praise him like your life depends on it praise him like you're gonna rebuke suicide praise him like you're coming out of depression praising black you're coming out of promiscuity praise him like you're coming out of pornography praise him like you're coming out of adultery praise and praise and praise it i will not leave my husband i will not abuse my wife i will not beat my

child i'm going to break the chain [Applause] the reason you couldn't stay in monk's corner it's because you had a devil to fight and everything god did to get you ready was to get you to come into an area where the enemy had set up camp in a region and he was preparing you in mom's corner getting you ready for what he was going to do down in charlotte so that yolks could be broken over the lives of the people who have been praying and said i got to be free i got to be delivered

and i got to be whole and the reason there's such an anointing in this church and there's such praise in this church and there's such deliverance in this church is because when you got in here something broke in your life if i got a witness anywhere in the house make some noise like you lost somebody [Applause] so the text says [Applause] the philip went down to samaria it's not like he was strolling down to samaria you know it wasn't like that at all he didn't come to have a cup of tea you know he didn't

come down there because he wanted to ride this ferris field in samaria he was on a mission when god puts somebody on a mission hell gets nervous when god puts a man on a mission demons begin to tremble they start trying to stop the man from getting to where he's trying to go let me prove it to you when jesus got ready to go to deliver the man who was bound in the tomb of gatherings on his way to the area a storm arose out of nowhere and the bible said that the whole ship began

to rock and reel and the bible says that jesus was asleep in the bottom of the boat and peter began to be afraid that the whole thing was going to capsize why do you think that the storm broke out the storm broke out because the devil knew that jesus was on his way to deliver the man that was bound by the demonic influence and that i am saying oh i feel like preaching [Applause] oh i feel something in this place touch your neighbor say you came to the right service [Music] jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus

jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus is down in the bottom of the boat and he's resting and he's resting up because there's gonna be a fight he's rested up because he knows when he gets to the destination he's got a devil to fight in fact he's got several devils to fight he's got legions of devils to fight and he's got to fight them by himself and so the bible said he was down in the bottom of the boat jesus was asleep at the bottom of the boat jesus was sleeping

at the bottom of the boat jesus was sleeping in the bottom of the boat jesus was sleeping the bottom of the boat in the middle of a hurricane what kind of jesus can sleep in the middle of a storm and the whole boat is rocking and reeling and the boat is filled with water and neither the winds nor the rains had interrupted his rest y'all didn't get him the winds were blowing the lightning was flashing the thunder was erupting out of nowhere and water was filling up the boat so bad that peter was afraid the

boat was gonna go underwater and jesus was in the kind of parts of the ship he had to be wet this is not the carnival cruise line he had to be waxed [Music] and the wind was blowing and the bug was rocking and none of that woke up jesus but when one of his believers called him [Applause] can i go off i want you to know that you got the power to wake up jesus like nobody else can if you called you just say say something [Applause] say something that's why whenever you get depressed the

devil don't want you to say nothing whenever you're going through a test the devil don't want you to say nothing whenever you're in great temptation the devil don't want you to say nothing whenever your marriage is in trouble the devil don't want you to say nothing because hell knows that the power of life and death is in your tongue and if you open up your mouth you can wake up jesus like nobody else can wake up jesus the wind can't wake him the waves can't wake him the storm can't wake him but i dare you

to [Applause] do you think that peter's voice had more decibel impact than thunder or lightning with nobody else but jesus he can hear your faintest cry he can hear a tear slide over the bridge of your nose at three o'clock in the morning god is so in tune with you while nothing else can break his rest if you get in trouble when you are at this ease your disease will wake him up by the way half of your diseases are coming from your disease i speak to every nervous upset restless frustrated condition that you have

said nothing about that's coming out in illnesses and stress attacks and insomnia and eating disorders god's gonna give you a breakthrough today you're not eating because you're hungry you're not up because you're not tired you're up because you're at this ease but god is about to give you some peace today somebody holler peace jesus woke up jesus woke up rose to the bow of the ship in the middle of the winds and the waves he opened his mouth and cleared his throat wiped the sleep out of his eyes and the bible says he rebuked the

winds and the waves and said peace [Applause] peace be still wait a minute let's roll that back he rebukes the winds and the waves rebukes you don't rebuke winds and waves you might stop winds and waves you might arrest winds and waves you don't rebuke winds and waves you rebuke spirits [Music] i came to tell you there's a spirit behind your storm there's a spirit behind your distress there's a spirit behind your dysfunction there's a spirit behind that problem with your child that child that need no more rhetoric they don't need no more medication they

don't need to be zombed out of their head there's a spirit that's after your child you could put away half of that medicine and rebuke that spirit the bible said he rebuked the winds and the waves and with the winds and the waves heard the voice of the master who made them he overruled the spirit that sent them and the winds got slain in the spirit and the waves lay prostrate in the floor and there was a great calm in the tempest of the sea and they sailed on without incident because god always gets to

the core of a situation watch me we pray about the symptoms of a situation you ask god to fix the symptom but god is after the core of the situation who am i helping today this same god is the god that sent philip to samaria to take back the region this is not just about you [Applause] god wants to take back the region he wants to take back the neighborhood he wants to take back your bloodline and the reason the enemy is fighting you so hard it's not just you it's your daughter and your son

and your grandchildren that are at stake because god wants to take back the territory i feel the kind of power that will release you generationally that will break every yoke over your mind and over your spirit i need some real praises i don't mean no cute praises i need some real praises somebody who will praise him for your daughter and praise it for your son and praise him for your children and praise him for your sister's children i want to give you 30 minutes to praise him like you're expecting jesus to show up in the

room right now open your mouth and move your hands and move your feet move your knees or move your lips and move your eyes flap your eyes move your jaws make some kind of let everything that happens praise sheep [Music] [Applause] preacher for years for years pup stayed under the house y'all with it he would run out and bob and the chamber would pull him back he would run out of embargo and the chain would pull it back somebody would drive off in the car and he'd run up and the chain would pull him back

and because it had pulled him back so many times we thought the chain was stronger than the dog [Applause] somebody has tried to go forward but every time you tried to go forward the chain would pull you back you made a new year's resolution but the chain would pull you back and you're starting to think that the chain is stronger than you but one day pup saw something in front of him that was stronger than what was behind him and when he ran out and the chain tried to pull him he snarled and said not

this time somebody said not this time you can't have my daughter you can't even have my son you can't have my marriage you came to have my life i declared you something in this [Applause] i'm gonna praise him till my daughter gets delivered i'm gonna praise him till my son comes home i'm gonna praise him till my marriage is healed lift your voice lose your mind give your god [Applause] when philip got to some barrier he turned the city upside down since you're all standing i can't tell you to stand so turn around in a

circle god is getting ready to turn things upside down in your life he's getting ready to shake things up everything that was tied up is about to break loose in your life my god wait a minute before i praise him for what he's about to do i want to praise him for the persecution that brought me to where i am if i hadn't been hated like that if i hadn't been attacked like that if i had to cry out like that i wouldn't have the power i feel the anointing of the holy ghost [Applause] something

is about [Music] to snap [Applause] [Music] foreign [Applause] [Music] i didn't come to preach in this last service i came to bring a prophetic utterance in this last sermon something is about to snap in your life something that's been pulling you back for years it's about just not in your life you've been praising god over top of pain but the pain is about to snap in your life i don't know who i'm preaching to but something is about to snap in your life and you're gonna thank god for the trouble that push you over the

edge because it has driven you to a breaking point and something is about to break loose in your life if i'm preaching to you holla at you boy [Applause] [Applause] when philip came to samaria there was demonic influence there was possessions and the bible said there was sickness and there was disease god sent one man [Applause] against a city of trouble [Applause] stop pastoring this church and pastor the city [Applause] this is not about a church it's about a city it's about a city and every satellite church is a cell and i came to activate

every cell in every city that's watching me online there's a reason that a cell has been planted in your area because god is about to activate you like a terrorist to go into the enemy's camp and take back what he stole from you everything that the devil stole is coming back i don't know who i'm preaching to and i better stop because i feel my old preacher standing up inside of me and what i feel right now ain't even in style no more but i feel the power of the holy ghost the kind of power

he never meant for you to become them he meant for them to become you and you have finally reached the season that those who once fought you are now going to seek you and you've got to be healed enough and feel safe enough to let people in that you've been scared of because god is going to use you to minister to people who maligned you and you've got to know who you are well enough to be ready to receive them because you're bigger than that [Applause] [Music] you're bigger than that watch this church the last

verse of the text says that when philip hit samaria he rebuked the devils he healed the diseases and there was great joy amen in the not in the church in the city you have not been sent to churches but regions [Applause] [Music] so when the region is in crisis you must speak because your vision cannot be contained by walls [Applause] or campuses the bible said the kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our god and of his christ this is about kingdoms now something is about to shift addition something is about to shift

oh lord something is something is about to shift can you feel it can you feel it can you feel it how many are glad you're in this service right now [Applause] on every campus everywhere this word is being streamed everywhere you're watching on facebook live and everywhere else a chain is about to break off of your life like it has never broken before [Music] take your city [Music] take your region take your region take your region you gotta get out of thinking your vision fits within the topography of your walls you're bigger than that you

must speak to regions fashion you must speak to territories you must speak to areas that are desperate to hear your voice beyond your walls these are not your congregations these are your disciples and everywhere you send them [Applause] the people god gave you are not your destination they are your transportation to go into all the world and all the world's systems [Applause] [Music] [Applause] and there is a shift coming in this place and i can feel it from the crown of my head to the soles of my feet [Music] some of you you're in that

family to turn that family upside down and you don't have to argue and you don't have to fight and you don't have to be super deep or super spiritual all you have to do is just let the glory of the love of god flow out of you in such a way you're not going to have to approach them they're going to approach you to see what it is you got that gave you that kind of peace and all i need to do is break the link that yet connects you to a family or a region

that is dysfunctional that's trying to hold your neck back from the next dimension are not fighting with your devil it's your mama's devil and your grandmama's devil and your grandfather's devil and the devil of your family and the devil of your region and the mentality from where you grew up and where you came from satan is set up a principality and because you are straining the chain he does not want to let you go because if you get loose [Applause] [Music] if i'm not talking about playing church and putting on games and playing but if

you actually get loose [Applause] everything connected to you is going to be loose by the power of god join hands with somebody leave no one untouched [Music] pop pop that chain like it was a popsicle stick and when it popped he started running [Music] i'm gonna count to three and when i get to three everything physically ailments in your body afflictions that have attacked your health [Music] every mental and emotional disorder every nervous condition every bipolar every neurotic every distressed every anger everything that has ever held you i'm believing god is going to break loose
