"Take it off"

As Lady Grant and I were on the way home last Sunday, and as always we were rejoicing in both services. And Lady Grant brought something to my attention, that every one does not understand what going to another level means, and I said, you are absolutely right... So by way of introduction today, allow me to help you know the importance of going to your level. (Show Demonstration)

??Level : A position in a scale or rank (as of achievement, significance, or value)

You’re heading to Greater - Achievements...

You’re heading to Greater - Significance...

You’re heading to Greater - Value...

Oftentimes we don’t know that God is trying to get us through some things that we cannot remove ourselves from. In order to get to your next level, you’ve got to take some stuff off. PRAISE BREAK??

Unfortunately, we have a huge problem taking some things off...

?? How many of you know sometimes we’ve just got to get some stuff off our chest. I mean let’s keep it real!

When Jesus was angry He let them know why. You cannot grow, holding on to some stuff from way back when, that could not even help you then.

That’s the reason your Relationships can’t grow.

That’s the reason your Money can’t grow..

That’s the reason your Memory can’t grow. can’t grow!

You see everyone that’s going through might not be going through the same thing, but they’re still going through something!

??26. And “don’t sin by letting anger control you.

Don’t let the sun go down while you are still angry,

??27. for anger gives a foothold to the devil.

1??. Learn To Control Your Anger -

ANGER IS - A STRONG FEELING OF ANNOYANCE!

We’ve got to learn to deal with our anger! You can be angry but you cannot allow that anger to control you! NAME CALLING, IGNORING ONE ANOTHER,

📍 Do you know how many times The Lord gets angry at you yet, He doesn’t call you names nor ignor you so, what makes you think you can get mad and act any kind of way?

David said; In Psalms? ?6:1? ?

1. “O Lord, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.”

28. If you are a thief, quit stealing. Instead, use your hands for good hard work, and then give generously to others in need.

📍 Watch how you steal from God because, if you don’t pay God, He’ll make sure you pay somebody...

📍Some folks are in the business of stealing your Joy...

29. Don’t use foul (Grossly Offensive) or abusive (cruel) language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.

2. Watch Your Mouth -

Your mouth is the one thing that will block you from getting your miracles.

🔹Nasty Mouth will block your blessings...

30. And do not bring sorrow to God’s Holy Spirit by the way you live. Remember, he has identified you as his own, guaranteeing that you will be saved on the day of redemption.
