Someone here has not forgiven themselves for something they did. And today, the resurrection comes alive in your life, and the Lord wants you to forgive as he has forgiven you. You envision me, Yvonne, for the next ten years not forgiving myself of something that I did. And I walk around life condemning, cursing myself, making myself feel guilty, not worthy. That's what I'm doing to myself because Jesus Christ didn't do it to me. [01:12:02] (35 seconds)  #ForgivenAndFree Download clip

when was the last time you woke up at dawn to hear God's voice? It's in the stillness. It's in the quietness. It's in those moments that God speaks to us. That God gives us strategy, that God gives us vision, that God gives us exactly what we need to know in life. What if before April is gone, we would wake up at dawn at least one day and just hear his voice? [01:15:48] (38 seconds)  #DawnPrayer Download clip

So today, you might have a problem. You might have a crisis. You might have an impossible situation. Anybody dealing with an impossible situation? I got a couple. Right, Vicky? I got a couple.

Someone wrote on social media today, thank you, Lord, for loving me despite me being a mess. Thank you, Lord, for loving me when instead of running to you, I ran away from you. Thank you, Lord, when you forgave me and I ended up doing it again, yet you still welcome me with your arms. How many thank God for his forgiveness, his mercy, his love? There's power in resurrection. [01:11:23] (32 seconds)  #ThankfulForMercy Download clip

See, his power is active. And I think one of the worst things in a human being is to lose hope. Any everybody ever been hopeless? Welcome to a imperfect church. Right? Well, you've run out of options. You run out of resources. You run out of friends. You run out of solutions. You run out of options. You run out of everything, and you feel so hopeless.
