Famines are quality assurance checks for your faith. Abraham hits this moment where he literally gets tried in his face because a famine hits.

Your blessing is in your departure. Your blessing is in your leaving. Your blessing is in the face of stepping into the unknown. Your blessing is in the faith to say, I don't know where God has taken me, but I do believe in the God that has taken me.

God is the one that started it, which means He's going to sustain it, which means He's going to finish it, which means He's going to be the one that gets the glory for it.

You have to prepare for more. Because if He says He’s gonna bless you, and He says He’s gonna make you famous, I promise you will have to change some things about your life.

I can do a new, miraculous thing in your mind, your body, your soul, if you would just prepare for more.

Do you honestly think that all this time that we've been away? It hasn't been because God is preparing us for more. Do you honestly believe that we haven't met in all these months? Because we were just idle? No, God is actually preparing us for more.

God has a plan and a purpose for His church, and we will allow nothing in American culture to compromise what His kingdom’s culture wants to do in this earth.

Racism in America is real. Injustice in this country is real. While the focus right now is on police brutality and racism against black people, I need you to understand that that spirit is against all people.

I can't do it by myself and you can't do it by yourself, but together, we can upset the world, with the message, the love, and the hope of Jesus Christ.
