Fresh Failure: Faith After Failure // Fresh Fruit (Part 8)

• what’s going on my name is Will and I have the honor and the privilege as serving as one of the leaders here at Transformation Church I just want to say thank you so much for tuning in from wherever you are watching from and if you haven’t already be sure to like And subscribe we believe that God has such an incredible word for you today so let’s jump into this amazing message today I have a word that is about to change everything now when I say that some of y’all be like no cuz that other word that was the one okay cool but he that have an ear to
• hear Let Him hear I thought about what would be the most impactful message I could share with somebody after the amazing Easter that we had where over 1,024 people got a fresh start and more than just those people there are people who have been living a stale life a a life that had no no motion no no no um actual momentum that actually said you know what God you’re doing something in me I you felt your faith you felt your baby jump you felt something and you’re like you know what I want to live a fresh life I said what would I tell them if I could sit
• with them one onone and I begin to list out a few things number one I tell you that Jesus loves you number two i’ tell you that you going to make it yes like like I don’t know who needs to hear this right now but if I was just sitting across from you at a coffee shop I would tell you you’re going to make it if the enemy was going to kill you he would have done it back there you somebody look at your neighbor prophesy to them and say you’re going to make it look at the other neighbor that you didn’t like as much the first time and
• tell them you going to make it too come on in the chat tell them you going to make it too so I tell you Jesus loves you then I would tell you you’re going to make it and I I wrestled with the third one be because as a pastor who loves to encourage people and and preach faith I I always like to end things on a high note but but the the more that I get into pastoring something that wouldn’t have made it on my list as as the third thing but but I’ve walked with enough people to see that people would rather know the truth so true than to actually be um um
• told lies that feel good am I in a room with people who want the truth okay we keep it humble open and transparent here and so I I said I should tell people if I was just sitting with just them at a coffee shop just looking them in their eyes Pastor Mike and you I would tell you to get familiar with failure now I know I know aren’t you the crazy faith God I’m completely the crazy Faith guy aren’t you that God guy that believes God can do IM measely be more yes I’m that guy too yeah but what I found in this Christian journey is that
• if you are not calibrated with failure it’ll stop your faith if you don’t have a healthy relationship and you manage expectation around failure it will make you be paralyzed and crystallized in a season of disappointment and I am here to help Shake somebody out of that moment because many of you have been in a place where God is speaking to you telling you what to do opening up doors and you won’t move cuz you’re afraid to fail I can’t do the company cuz what if I fail I can’t say that because what if I don’t sound right I can’t do that and
• failure has you paralyzed at the point of your purpose and if you do not get a healthy relationship with failure it will hinder your ability to step out in faith okay I’m about to preach heavy today so I need you to take notes and I need you to probably run this back two or three times because there are people that are about to do I sense it so strong about to do things that were unheard of for anybody in your family that God is about to open up doors in your life that are never going to shut for Generations I feel this thing that God is going to
