conference 2014 join special guest John
Gray as he teaches us about break
through worship today I’m talking about
a worship that changes everything I’m
talking about a worship a sound that
shifts atmospheres what we need is a
break through worship somebody say break
through worship but what happens when
your worship is hindered by your
circumstance anybody ever wanted to
worship but somewhere in your mind you
keep remembering what you did wrong can
I just be honest can we just talk for a
second anybody ever wanted to worship
but somehow the enemy keeps bringing up
what you used to do and what you used to
be and how many times you missed it and
you said something wrong or you did
something wrong where you thought
something wrong and you beat yourself up
it’s only nine of us anybody else ever
been in that place of condemnation this
word is for you I want you to know that
there’s a worship that changes
everything and why does worship matter
because worship is the one thing God
cannot give himself God can do anything
he can do everything but the one thing
God cannot do is worship because in
order to worship you have to have
something higher than yourself
there is none higher than the Most High
God
so when I lift up my hands in the earth
it lets heaven know I acknowledge you my
king and it lets every devil in hell no
you have no authority over me because I
belong to another Kingdom but what do
you do when life has broken you arrested
you and you’ve been held hostage by bad
decisions broken by a moment what do you
do when all you can remember are the
things you’ve done wrong what do you do
when your worship has been muted by
circumstance young people I want you to
know there is one worship that if you
can get it out it’ll change everything
there is a worship that will break the
chains off of your life and cause you to
run into destiny as God intended there
is a sound that breaks you free from the
guilt and condemnation of bad decisions
but there is therefore now no
condemnation to those who are in Christ
Jesus anybody ready for a breakthrough
in mark chapter 5 we find a man that the
world had given up on anybody in here
ever been left for dead anybody in here
been sized up anybody in here ever been
overlooked undervalued underappreciated
anybody in here ever felt totally alone
isolated like no one understood you not
even the people closest to you in it’s
strange how sometimes the people closest
to you are the ones that can’t see you
here’s a man that everybody else had
given up on no hope no value lost in bad
decisions nobody’s coming to see him
oh but little did he know his life was
going to change in an instant
mark chapter five it says they came to
the other side of the sea to the country
of the gadarenes and when Jesus had come
out of the boat immediately there met
him out of the tombs a man with an
unclean spirit who had his dwelling
among the tombs and no one could bind
him not even with chains because he had
often been bound with shackles and
chains and the chains had been pulled
apart by him and the shackles broken in
pieces neither could anyone tame him and
always night and day he was in the
mountains and in the tombs crying out
and cutting himself with stones when he
saw Jesus from afar he ran and
worshipped him and he cried out with a
loud voice and said what have I to do
with you Jesus son of the Most High God
I implore you by God that you do not
torment me for jesus said to him come
out of the man unclean spirit then he
asked him what is your name and he
answered and said my name is legion for
we are many and he begged him earnestly
that he would not send them out of the
country then they came to Jesus and saw
the one who had been demon-possessed
sitting and clothed and in his right
mind and they were afraid I’m talking to
you for a few minutes about breakthrough
worship here is a man
that everyone else in his town had given
up on this man if you read the story was
so filled with the fruit of bad
decisions that he had two thousand
demons on the inside now that’s a whole
lot of wrong now I know some of I
struggle with nursing I’m I’m stride a
little bit this dude had done everything
you can think of and some other stuff
I’m gonna do that I’m with this I’m
gonna do that I did everything I’ll do
all what can I do what else can I do I’m
gonna do every single thing I can think
of two thousand demons moved in funny
how even after two thousand demons the
Bible says Jesus came to see about this
is to encourage every believer every
young person that the devil is lied to
that Jesus doesn’t love you because you
said clearly he loved you enough that
before you said he already paid for your
sin through his own death does he love
you he loves you this much but let me
give you a little backstory on this dude
he lived in a cemetery by himself
and he was always in change the only
time people came to see about him was to
put more bondage on him you ever got
people that no matter what you try to do
all they do is bring you negative stuff
me to let them people go stop texting
everybody stop DMing everybody stop
tweeting everybody everybody doesn’t
have your best interest at heart you
need to get a circle of people that love
God that will honor God that will fight
for you to get into destiny
and you need to spend more time in
prayer turn the TV off turn those video
games off spend five minutes with God if
you have to put God in your context and
texting it was still will would scare
you and shock you if he ever text back
what if you start texting like god I
just I miss you I love you I’m really
going through right now I’m just really
struggling just I need some help
what if you got a text back oh and me
I was thinking about you too because I
always think about you because I made
you in my image and I’ve got a destiny
for you and a purpose for you and
there’s nothing you can do to disqualify
yourself from my loud Jesus the Bible
says in mark 5 came to the region of the
gadarenes gadarenes means reward at the
end I’m here to encourage some young
people that you haven’t seen the fruit
of your prayers yet you haven’t seen the
fruit of your worship yet you haven’t
seen the fruit of making wise decisions
yet but there is a reward at the end at
the end of the process at the end of
your tears at the end of the struggle
there is a reward with your name on it
he will withhold no good things from
those who walk uprightly there is a
reward coming and in fact it arrives
today go ahead and high-five somebody
say my reward is coming today
and your reward is not things your
reward is a king there’s somebody to
jump up if you know who your King is
your reward is not a thing your reward
is
hallelujah that my reward is a king and
when Jesus comes everything he is comes
with me Oh hallelujah if I invited
pastor Jensen to come to a revival and
say passage ends would you preach for us
sure well I know let me give you another
contract because we’d like you to play
the saxophone as well well no you don’t
have to do that well what we might need
you to prophesy don’t worry you don’t
have to give me a separate agreement for
that
why because everything I am comes with
me you don’t have to ask for 40
different things just say Jesus come see
about me Jesus I need you I need the oh
I need the Oh bless me now my Savior I
come to thee
whatever you need is in Jesus
I said whatever you need is in Jesus
let me hurry up and give you the rest of
this story Jesus in mark chapter 3 had
announced who his disciples would be and
he began to teach and preach the Bible
says that he was on a boat preaching
because there were so many people on the
shore that he couldn’t even preach on
the sand now he didn’t have to be in the
boat to preach he could have stepped out
of the boat and preached on the water
but then he would have had to stop his
sermon to heal the people who would have
died of a heart attack so he stayed in
the boat and he preached from the boat
and when he finished preaching he said
to his disciples let us cross over to
the other side and in mark 4 is where
you and I have read the story about the
wind and the wave obeying Jesus because
a storm came up to sink the boat now I
don’t know about you but this blesses me
because in mark 5 Jesus encounters one
man now how come there wasn’t an attack
when there were thousands when he was
preaching to thousands no storm
but when he crosses the sea to get to
the other side that’s when the devil
attacks why because there was something
about that one man that God didn’t see
in the crowd I want you to know God will
leave a crowd to look for one I don’t
care who you are or what you’ve done
crowds have never mattered to God more
than the heart of one and Jesus said
this was great nice revival let’s cross
over to the other side and when he gets
to the other side as he sleep on the
pillow you can imagine what the
disciples are saying they just started
doing ministry with Jesus man this is
cold-blooded man we had thousands on our
first night that’s crazy right man what
you think gonna be happening on the
other side it’s gonna probably be 50,000
people over there Thomas what you think
and I doubt it imagine the excitement of
the disciples thinking that it was all
about crowds and as they get closer to
the shore they look out like we almost
there Jesus they probably gonna be about
50,000 out here I don’t see nobody
you’re probably coming on we almost
there Jesus man you think he knew what
he was talking about I don’t see anybody
and as they get closer all they see is
one man
I don’t want to go outside I’ve been a
dirty birdie
I don’t like mayonnaise I need a
spanking
the disciples was like a Jesus he crazy
man and then turn the boat around he
crazy he rotted Tarzan could play turn
the boat around
man turn the boat around see that’s not
in your Bible that’s in the NIV Dan
Nigro International Version it’s
available in the lobby holler at me
that’s why I know with no disciples
brothers hey crazy man
but Jesus said we’re in the right place
the Bible says when the man who had been
in bondage for years in Chains for years
the Bible says he lived in the mountains
and in the tombs that means one day he
was at the highest of the high next day
the lowest of the law says he would cry
out and cut himself with stones young
people the word stone in that scripture
would translate in the Hebrew tablet or
the law and this man was stuck in a
cemetery of his own bad decisions and
every time he would try to break free
the law would remind him that he
couldn’t get it right I failed I blew it
again
no hope for me the law can never save
you it can only point you to the one
that can save you the law can only
frustrate you your relationship is not
rules-based it’s confession based if you
can confess with your mouth and believe
in your heart that Jesus is Lord you
shall be safe
the law keeps you in bondage
that’s why grace had to come across the
wall
you missed it we’re not under the
Covenant of the law were under the
covenant of grace but grace is not a
feeling
grace is a man and grace came across
wind and wave storm in opposition for
one man the Bible says he went and he
worshiped but as soon as he worship
young people the devil’s cried out what
have we to do with you Jesus son of the
Most High God now I don’t know about you
but I know we got some pastors in here
last I checked demons can’t worship they
can acknowledge but they can’t worship
because worship is an act of your will
in honor and submission to the Father so
if your wasn’t the demons who were
worshiping who was it it was the man I
don’t care how broken you are keep
worshiping I don’t care what you
struggling through keep worshiping I
don’t care how many times you fail keep
worshiping I don’t care how many times
you remember what you used to do but
just keep worshiping keep praising keep
fighting don’t give up if you got one
worship bullet lift it’s enough if you
can just point your worship in the
direction of Jesus he will come and see
about you somebody give him a pray
the Bible says that the man worshiped
but then the demons open their mouths
but I want you to know as I closed the
power of a breakthrough worship imagine
a man everybody else had given up on but
something about him was so powerful that
it took two thousand demons to hold him
down and they still couldn’t stop him
why with two thousand demons attacked
one man unless his worship was a threat
to their kingdom how did he even know
who Jesus was they didn’t send him an
nobody texted him it says he saw Jesus
from afar which means something inside
of him with all that brokenness was
still looking for an answer even though
I’m in bondage I know a king is coming
even though I can’t see my way out I
know somebody’s coming to see about me
and from a distance he saw something and
I know you don’t understand it all but
it’s something about this Jesus that
makes you come to youth group something
that makes you lift your hands something
that makes you come to church and that
something is the seed of the Holy Spirit
that’s drawing you in and I don’t care
what the name of your church is Baptist
Methodist Church of God Assemblies of
God I’m tired of all this organized
brokenness that we call denomination it
doesn’t matter
the only thing that matters is Jesus if
you can just get to Jesus everything can
change
I need somebody to get Jesus appraised
it’s time for me to go
the Bible says that this man with one
last worship left ran with a little bit
of humanity he had straight to Jesus and
as soon as he fell down the demon said
what have we to do with you Jesus son of
the Most High God and here’s the trick
the man didn’t know who Jesus was and
according to Levitical law Jesus
couldn’t go to a cemetery because he was
the high priest and the high priest
could not go near dead things
it didn’t say dead things couldn’t come
near him I don’t care how broken you are
if you can see Jesus run to him if you
think he’s near get to him I don’t know
who I’m talking to somebody I like Jesus
where are you said I’m over here but I
need you to run to me I’ve done my part
I’ve come across the ocean I’ve come
across your circumstance I fought for
you now fight for me Jesus is saying I
need some young people that are right
for me that a worship me in spirit and
truth who won’t be ashamed to put their
hands together even though your friends
might laugh at you is there anybody that
will give God a break through worship at
the end of this sermon
is that your best break for worship
there is a worship the man didn’t even
know who he was worship but guess who
told him who it was the Devils on the
inside said what have we to do with you
Jesus son of the Most High God fries the
Bible says if you confess with your
mouth he couldn’t eat he didn’t even
know who it was
he just ran to him it was the devil that
gave him the breakthrough I want you to
know that the devil is going to have to
free you and give you the answer to your
miracle my time is up
but I want you to know your breakthrough
is here right now if you got one worship
left let it be a breakthrough worship
the Bible says when Jesus got finished
the man who was demon-possessed was
sitting clothing in his right mind and
the people in the town were afraid why
because some people like you better
broken that way they can feel better
about themselves they don’t want you to
get free but it’s too late now I got my
last worship out you should have got me
before I got this breakthrough worship
out I’m never gonna be the same now I
got a breakthrough worship I broke
through I didn’t even understand it all
but Jesus came and healed me at the end
of the story the man said Jesus I want
to go with you and Jesus said you can’t
come with me go home tell your family
and friends what great things the Lord
has done for you when you leave here in
a few days young people go home and tell
everybody what Jesus did tell everybody
Jesus Saves jesus heals
Jesus delivers
because if you can get the worship out
of your mouth the miracle will arrive if
you can just bless him right now I
promise you he will not leave you or
forsake you there is a breakthrough
worship that gets heaven’s attention go
ahead and bless him right now if you
love him like I love him
then give him a break through worship
