Do you keep falling into sexual sin and feel stuck in a cycle of guilt, shame, and regret? In this episode, Pastor Mike Signorelli pulls back the curtain on the battle with lust—and equips you with the truth to finally break free. Drawing from scripture, personal testimony, and pastoral experience, Pastor Mike walks you through the three essential steps to overcome sexual sin:
- Break the Trance – Lust rewires your mind into a cycle of repeated thoughts. It’s time to interrupt the pattern.
- Worship Continuously – You were made to meditate—but what you rehearse determines your results.
- Clean House – Real freedom demands radical action. Some things need to go… even if it feels like losing part of your identity.
This isn’t about religious repression—it’s about true, lasting freedom through renewing your mind, embracing God's design for sexual fulfillment, and reclaiming your destiny from the grip of compromise. You’ll also experience a powerful deliverance prayer that breaks strongholds of lust, shame, and perversion in Jesus’ name.

Do you feel like God's callingyou to a life of holiness, but you
can't just fully step in?
Maybe this is the one areathat you're like, everything else
I've surrendered to God,everything else I've given up.
But I cannot stop the scroll.
Maybe it's TikTok and thealgorithm figured out you have a
(00:56):
problem and it's serving upthe exact videos you want to see.
Maybe it's just.
Maybe it's a sexual sin of loneliness.
And it will.
And it turned into sexual sinbecause you keep going back to a
relationship.
Friends with benefits.
I'm bringing it like 100% unfiltered.
Like right now, you need tohear the word of God.
For those of you guys who knowand subscribe to my channel, not
(01:19):
only do I pastor a multi sitechurch, but I'm somebody who has
openly shared my testimoniesof being set free from sexual sin.
And this is not going to belike any other talk you've ever heard,
okay?
And so I'm gonna give youthree things that are gonna help
you finally break free fromsexual sin.
But I'm going to say the mostimportant lesson all the way to the
(01:42):
end.
This is gonna be a quick teaching.
So make sure that you staywith me the entire time.
And then I'm gonna pray apowerful prayer.
And this prayer at the veryend of this is going to break chains
off of you because I believeI'm anointed and I have authority
in this area to speak into it.
Freedom.
Okay?
This is going to be unlikeanything else you've ever heard.
(02:02):
Number one is this.
Break the trance.
Break the trance.
Lust causes you to come upunder a trance.
It is a way of thinking thatbegins to be rehearsed over and over.
And the repetition of lustfulthoughts produces a trance.
(02:23):
Am I right?
Have you been under the tranceof lust?
You have to break the trance.
Colossians, chapter three,verse five says, put to death, therefore,
whatever belongs to yourearthly nature.
So let's talk about yourearthly nature.
You are a physical body.
(02:44):
The desire to have sex is not wrong.
Now listen, as you continue onin this teaching, understand it may
not be appropriate for allaudiences that this is.
Viewer discretion advised.
But let's talk about this.
The desire to have sex is not wrong.
As a matter of fact, it's notjust a desire.
(03:07):
But to procreate is actually acommand by God.
God created sexuality.
He gave it as a gift andcommanded that we would be fruitful
and multiply.
So the desire, in and ofitself is not wrong.
You may have been led tobelieve that it was wrong, but in
(03:27):
and of itself, it's not wrong.
When it turns into lust is therepeated thoughts without the way
to properly fulfill thatdesire turns into a trance.
So, number one, break the trance.
Break the trance.
Let me just tell you a story, okay?
(03:49):
There was a fox that was wounded.
This wounded fox came to ahome, limping, bleeding.
The owner actually had so muchcompassion for this fox that the
owner of the house that itcame to begin to feed this fox, feed
it, feed it, begin to bandagehis wounds.
(04:10):
Sooner or later, the fox gotto the point where it was so strong
and rehabilitated that itended up viciously attacking the
owner and the owner's child ofthat home.
And when I remember readingthat story and thinking how much
sexual desire is like awounded fox, it shows up as loneliness.
(04:33):
It shows up as, my life is sohard, I just need a moment of pleasure.
And we begin to feed it.
What we don't realize is thatwe're strengthening a killer.
That fox does not belong inyour house, okay?
And so, in the same way as youare feeding that desire, it shows
up as brokenness.
(04:53):
It shows up as something inour life that we're just like, hey,
you know, I just.
I just.
I'm sick and tired of being alone.
Or my life is so hard, I'mgonna give myself this momentary
pleasure.
But then all of a sudden, webegin to strengthen it to the point
where it eventually destroysus and maybe our children, too.
Break the trance of lust.
(05:14):
Because that fox was allowedto live, it ended up becoming the
death of two people in the home.
Sometimes the thing that youlet live is the thing that kills
you.
I'm just gonna say it again.
You can quote me on Twitter.
Sometimes the thing that youlet live is the thing that eventually
kills you.
(05:34):
So you let lust live.
And live is a thing that killsyour destiny, kills your peace of
mind, kills your next level.
And so Colossians says, goahead and put it to death.
Sexual immorality, impurity,lust, evil desires, greed, which
is idolatry.
What does that mean?
Stop feeding it.
Break the trance.
(05:55):
Number two, when you'redealing with lust and you want to
get free from sexual impurity,if you keep relapsing over and over
again.
Now watch.
Why do you come up under a trance?
I'm gonna go deep.
I'm gonna go deep.
You follow me?
Because I go there.
It's so easy for you to comeup under a trance, because actually,
(06:16):
human beings are wired to bein that state of continual thinking
and meditation and repetition.
Human beings, our brain isbuilt for repetition.
And so the Bible says, praywithout saying ceasing.
And so you are made to worshipGod continually.
You are made to repeat hisword in your heart and in your mind.
(06:39):
And so number two is worship continuously.
So, number one, break the trance.
Number two, come on, is this good?
Is this helping somebody?
Number two is worship continuously.
Second Corinthians, chapter10, verse 5.
This is what it says.
Take your thoughts captive.
(07:02):
Second Corinthians, chapter10, Verse 5.
Keep them captive.
And then think on these things.
Everything that's noble,everything that's lovely, everything
that's pure.
In other words, it's almost asif God understands the way that he
made your brain, the way hemade your brain is to be repetitive.
And so repeat these things.
(07:25):
David.
Okay, I'm gonna go even deeper.
I'm gonna go even deeper.
David was a worshiper.
David understood how to repeatand rehearse victories.
So when he stood in front ofGoliath, he said, hey, Goliath.
He said, hey, Goliath.
I defeated the lion, Idefeated the bear, and surely I'll
defeat you.
(07:45):
What was he doing?
He was repeating.
This is good.
He was repeating.
He was saying, I'm rehearsingmy victories.
Isn't it just like lust?
Come on, let's bring it in.
Isn't it just like lust andperversion to make you repeat shame,
repeat guilt, and repeat condemnation?
Come on.
(08:05):
Isn't it just like lust tomake you repeat shame over and over
and over again?
And then when you go toworship God and truly enter in worship,
it's lust telling you, whatare you doing?
Don't you remember what you did?
And repeats your failures.
So you've got to learn how totake those thoughts captive and then
worship continuously.
(08:26):
Is this good?
Is this helping anybody?
If you lack discipline, do youwant me to tell you a secret?
You don't lack discipline andyou don't lack consistency.
You're already disciplined.
You're disciplined into lust.
There's not a day that goes bythat you don't lust and operate in
perversion.
(08:46):
So you don't lack.
You already have proven youcan be consistent.
You are disciplined.
I mean, what's the definitionof discipline?
But listen, you give over.
You'll make room in yourschedule for lust.
You'll make room in yourschedule for perversion.
It's like you have disciplinein the area of lust.
(09:07):
So people say, oh, I just need discipline.
No, you need to reallocateyour discipline.
You need to give it to God.
You need to be disciplined inthe things of God.
You're already disciplined in unrighteousness.
You need to so you.
So for those of you who arelike, I just can't be consistent,
you are.
You are consistent.
You consistently sin, youconsistently relapse.
(09:29):
So good news is, you're consistent.
The good news is you are disciplined.
But first, Peter, chapter 5,verse 5, says, God resists the proud
and he gives grace to the humble.
(10:37):
So when you come to him andwhen you act like.
Because there's also sometimesa form of false humility.
But I'm talking about realhumility, says God, I'm not praying.
Oh, my Lord, I feel such arevelation on this.
False humility, says God, Ijust keep going back to lust God,
(10:59):
it's.
I just can't defeat this thing.
Real humility, says God, I'mnot praying.
Like, I should pray.
I haven't made time for yourword, God.
It's you that I actually left out.
See, false humility is like,God, I'm so full of shame and guilt.
But real humility says, God,I've forgotten about you.
(11:20):
How do you feel when I grieve you?
I'm hosting you, hosting theHoly Spirit.
And so, number one, break the trance.
Number two, worship continuously.
And then number three, and ifyou want to write this down, go ahead
and write this down.
Clean house.
Clean house.
Get serious about applying theadmonition given by Apostle Paul
(11:44):
in Romans, chapter 12.
Get real serious about it.
Get real serious.
Apostle Paul, I'm about tolisten to what you said in Romans,
chapter 12.
Do not be conformed to.
To the world.
The world.
They lust all the time.
Am I telling you the truth?
Listen.
They lust all the time.
(12:04):
And it's okay.
It's okay.
The world is polyamorous.
The world has multipledifferent outlets for their sexuality.
The world.
The world says, oh, you canjust do, you know, whatever feels
good, do it.
That's how the world talks.
But Romans, chapter 12, verse,verse 2, I think, do not be conformed
(12:25):
to this world, but be transformed.
And so that means thatsometimes we've got a clean house.
Let me just tell you, youwould rather lose your hand, cut
it off, because you continueto sin, than to lose your entire
body to the flames.
That's what Jesus said.
But I wanna give you a deeperreading of that scripture, because
(12:46):
what he was actually sayingis, you know how you've put so much
of your Identity into.
Into having two hands.
You would rather be the onethat loses a part of you.
So much so that it feels likeyour identity has shifted.
Now you're.
Now you're an amputee.
Like, now you gottareorientate how you do everything
in your life.
Now.
You used to write with one hand.
(13:06):
You have to write another.
Everything has to changearound the loss of that hand.
And you'd rather have tofigure out how to live your life
without lust than lose yourwhole life because of lust.
Oh, I know this is helpingsomebody right now, because when
I talk about cleaning house,I'm talking about remove the things
(13:28):
that make it feel like youremoved a part of your identity.
That's how you know you'regetting free.
But I always watch this.
I always listen to this.
I always do this on my phone.
Remove the things that feellike you would be removing part of
your identity because you'reonly removing the part that's cancerous.
Oh, I'm telling you now, thesethree steps.
(13:51):
I'm gonna give you bad newsnow, before I give you the good news,
these three steps do not inand of themselves, produce lasting
victory over lustful thoughts.
And let me redeem it for you.
I know some of you are like,I'm screaming right now in the chat
because he's preaching, butthese three things I gave you, that's
not all.
(14:11):
Because I wanna give you thegood news so that the bad news is
this is not going to solve it.
It's going to help.
But the good news is, you now,this is.
I want you to hear me now.
All the bloggers and thehaters probably did not get this
far into the teaching, becausethey never do.
(15:33):
I am not preaching so that youwould become sexually repressed.
The Bible is not aninstruction manual for sexual repression.
It's so that you will besexually satisfied and sexually fulfilled.
And so my desire is not thatyou would be repressed, but that
you would be fulfilled.
(15:55):
But I will tell you this.
Lust can never be fulfilled.
Lust is insatiable.
Lust can never be fulfilled.
Which means if your problem islust, then you have to do the things
I talked about.
But lust is never fulfilled.
And what I'm trying to helpyou get is true intimacy, which is
(16:17):
only through the covenant of marriage.
And then when you righteouslyfulfill your sexual desires within
that covenant, within thatway, you can be fulfilled.
You can actually be sexually satisfied.
But lust can never be fulfilled.
And so here's the thing.
People think they're going tosolve lust with marriage.
(16:40):
Wrong.
You cannot solve lust withmarriage, because lust is insatiable,
which means you'll get marriedto the right person, but you will
be wired the wrong way, andyou will never be satisfied.
And then you'll end up cheating.
And if you don't cheat withanother person, you'll cheat with
another person through ascreen, you'll cheat with a video.
You'll cheat with yourself,but you will not be sexually satisfied
(17:06):
because lust is never satisfied.
Lust is not solved by marriage.
That's so good for somebody to hear.
Right now there's this great reversal.
I want to end this on.
And then I want to pray for you.
Okay?
Be not conformed to the world.
So we establish that.
But then it goes on to say inRomans, but be transformed by the
(17:30):
renewing of your mind.
That.
Why?
Why should you renew your mind?
So that you can prove what isgood and acceptable and the perfect
will of God.
So here's the thing.
Until you renew your mind, youcan't even prove what is the good
and acceptable and perfectwill of God.
(17:51):
Now, every day when you wakeup, you actually have thousands of
new brain cells.
And scientists call it neurogenesis.
And doesn't it say in theBible that he makes his mercies new
and every day?
Whew, that's a revelation now,because that means if you wake up
every single morning, nomatter where you live, around the
world, watching right now,that you have thousands of new brain
(18:14):
cells that were created whileyou slept.
Neurogenesis.
And the Bible says he makesGod makes his mercies new every day.
That means every single dayyou wake up, you have another opportunity
to transform your brain.
You have another opportunityto renew your mind.
And this ain't gonna be fixedby deliverance.
Listen, you get delivered by ademon, but the habitat that that
(18:37):
demon created remains.
And then they come back,wanting to take more territory, and
they bring their friends.
And so, listen, I wish I couldjust do a deliverance, and you're
done.
But if you don't learn theconvergence of discipline with deliverance,
renewing your mind everysingle day, you will not reverse
it and stay free.
And if you haven't already,please, please, please take heart,
(19:04):
because your freedom is here.
I want to pray for you right now.
Your freedom is here.
Like, you don't have to livein guilt, shame, condemnation.
Therefore, there is nocondemnation for those who are in
Christ Jesus.
You don't have to live underthat bond, that mental and emotional
bondage.
You don't have to live boundby demons.
That's a whole nother teaching.
(19:26):
So here's what I want you to do.
Because some of you arecleaning house.
Some of you are going to comeup and have to delete apps off of
your phone.
Some of you are going to haveto block numbers of friends with
benefits.
Some of you, you know what youhave to do.
Do it cause you love the Lord more.
Because you've got greatnessinside of you and you're destined
to do great things for the Lord.
And you're not going tosacrifice your destiny or lower yourself
(19:49):
to the level of lust.
Come on, I know this is good.
So let me just help you.
I want to pray for you right now.
And let's not pray a littlepatty cake prayer.
Let's pray a real prayer right now.
I'm asking you, Father, I pray.
Right now we take captiveevery single vile, demonic, lustful,
(20:10):
perverse thought.
Now in the name of Jesus, eveneverything we have viewed through
lust and pornography andthings that we've experienced through
trauma, molestation, rape,Father, promiscuity, perversion,
God of all kinds, Lord, rightnow we take it captive.
Now in the name of Jesus, wepull down every single stronghold
(20:31):
that has erected itself upagainst your word.
And Father, I thank you thatfreedom, freedom is coming now.
And Father, I thank you thatyou are giving us righteous fulfillment
of our sexual desires throughour spouse, God, that you're bringing
us into the covenant ofmarriage to fulfill our sexual desires.
(20:53):
And we are not going to berepressed, but we are going to be
completely and totally free.
Some of you, right now aswe're praying, I feel this so strongly.
You need to just begin to gothrough a place of repentance.
Repent just means turn.
It just means like you'resaying, God, I'm turning from my
wicked ways.
I'm not going to in any way,shape or form continue.
(21:16):
So just repent.
Repent is just simply saying,God, I'm not doing this again.
I'm not going back.
Father, I thank you that youare faithful and just to forgive
those who repent.
And so, Father, we repent.
We repent.
We're not blaming it on demons.
We're not.
Lord, it's us.
And more so than sinful acts,we are repenting right now because
(21:39):
we turn from you.
And we are supposed to worshipyou and pray without ceasing.
And so, God, we turn ourhearts back to you right now and
we say, God, we belong to you now.
Lastly, I want to pray tobreak every demonic power because
listen, we're not blaming thison the devil, but we're also not
letting the devil hide.
(22:01):
And so, every spirit of lustand perversion, I command you to
go.
In the name of Jesus.
Out of every single person.
Under the sound of my voice,in Jesus name, every spirit of lust
and perversion, we break yourpower and command you to loose them
and let them go now.
Come out of their mind.
Come out of their appetite.
Out.
(22:21):
In the name of Jesus, go.
Lust of the eyes.
Out in Jesus name.
Lust of the hands.
Out in Jesus name.
Go.
Now.
Loose them now.
In Jesus name.
Out.
Out.
Now every single curse of lustand perversion be broken in the name
of Jesus.
Do you feel so much guilt andshame after every single time you
give into a sexual sin?
Do you feel like God's callingyou to a life of holiness, but you
can't just fully step in?
Maybe this is the one areathat you're like, everything else
I've surrendered to God,everything else I've given up.
But I cannot stop the scroll.
Maybe it's TikTok and thealgorithm figured out you have a
(00:56):
problem and it's serving upthe exact videos you want to see.
Maybe it's just.
Maybe it's a sexual sin of loneliness.
And it will.
And it turned into sexual sinbecause you keep going back to a
relationship.
Friends with benefits.
I'm bringing it like 100% unfiltered.
Like right now, you need tohear the word of God.
For those of you guys who knowand subscribe to my channel, not

Break the trance.
Lust causes you to come upunder a trance.
It is a way of thinking thatbegins to be rehearsed over and over.
And the repetition of lustfulthoughts produces a trance.
(02:23):
Am I right?
Have you been under the tranceof lust?
You have to break the trance.

But then all of a sudden, webegin to strengthen it to the point
where it eventually destroysus and maybe our children, too.
Break the trance of lust.
(05:14):
Because that fox was allowedto live, it ended up becoming the
death of two people in the home.
Sometimes the thing that youlet live is the thing that kills
you.
I'm just gonna say it again.
You can quote me on Twitter.
Sometimes the thing that youlet live is the thing that eventually
kills you.
(05:34):
So you let lust live.
And live is a thing that killsyour destiny, kills your peace of
mind, kills your next level.
And so Colossians says, goahead and put it to death.
Sexual immorality, impurity,lust, evil desires, greed, which
is idolatry.
What does that mean?
Stop feeding it.
Break the trance.
(05:55):
Number two, when you'redealing with lust and you want to
get free from sexual impurity,if you keep relapsing over and over
again.
Now watch.
Why do you come up under a trance?
I'm gonna go deep.
I'm gonna go deep.
You follow me?
Because I go there.
It's so easy for you to comeup under a trance, because actually,
(06:16):

defeat you.
(07:45):
What was he doing?
He was repeating.
This is good.
He was repeating.
He was saying, I'm rehearsingmy victories.
Isn't it just like lust?
Come on, let's bring it in.
Isn't it just like lust andperversion to make you repeat shame,
repeat guilt, and repeat condemnation?
Come on.
(08:05):
Isn't it just like lust tomake you repeat shame over and over
and over again?
And then when you go toworship God and truly enter in worship,
it's lust telling you, whatare you doing?
Don't you remember what you did?
And repeats your failures.
So you've got to learn how totake those thoughts captive and then
worship continuously.
(08:26):
Is this good?
Is this helping anybody?
If you lack discipline, do youwant me to tell you a secret?
You don't lack discipline andyou don't lack consistency.
You're already disciplined.
You're disciplined into lust.
There's not a day that goes bythat you don't lust and operate in
perversion.
(08:46):
So you don't lack.
You already have proven youcan be consistent.
You are disciplined.
I mean, what's the definitionof discipline?
But listen, you give over.
You'll make room in yourschedule for lust.
You'll make room in yourschedule for perversion.
It's like you have disciplinein the area of lust.
(09:07):
So people say, oh, I just need discipline.
No, you need to reallocateyour discipline.
You need to give it to God.
You need to be disciplined inthe things of God.
You're already disciplined in unrighteousness.
You need to so you.
So for those of you who arelike, I just can't be consistent,
you are.
You are consistent.
You consistently sin, youconsistently relapse.
(09:29):
So good news is, you're consistent.
The good news is you are disciplined.
But first, Peter, chapter 5,verse 5, says, God resists the proud
and he gives grace to the humble.
(10:37):
So when you come to him andwhen you act like.
Because there's also sometimesa form of false humility.
But I'm talking about realhumility, says God, I'm not praying.
Oh, my Lord, I feel such arevelation on this.
False humility, says God, Ijust keep going back to lust God,
(10:59):
it's.
I just can't defeat this thing.
Real humility, says God, I'mnot praying.
Like, I should pray.
I haven't made time for yourword, God.
It's you that I actually left out.
See, false humility is like,God, I'm so full of shame and guilt.
But real humility says, God,I've forgotten about you.
(11:20):
How do you feel when I grieve you?
I'm hosting you, hosting theHoly Spirit.
And so, number one, break the trance.
Number two, worship continuously.
And then number three, and ifyou want to write this down, go ahead
and write this down.
Clean house.
Clean house.
Get serious about applying theadmonition given by Apostle Paul
(11:44):
in Romans, chapter 12.
Get real serious about it.
Get real serious.
Apostle Paul, I'm about tolisten to what you said in Romans,
chapter 12.
Do not be conformed to.
To the world.
The world.
They lust all the time.
Am I telling you the truth?
Listen.
They lust all the time.
(12:04):
And it's okay.
It's okay.
The world is polyamorous.
The world has multipledifferent outlets for their sexuality.
The world.
The world says, oh, you canjust do, you know, whatever feels
good, do it.
That's how the world talks.
But Romans, chapter 12, verse,verse 2, I think, do not be conformed
(12:25):
to this world, but be transformed.
And so that means thatsometimes we've got a clean house.
Let me just tell you, youwould rather lose your hand, cut
it off, because you continueto sin, than to lose your entire
body to the flames.
That's what Jesus said.
But I wanna give you a deeperreading of that scripture, because
(12:46):
what he was actually sayingis, you know how you've put so much
of your Identity into.
Into having two hands.
You would rather be the onethat loses a part of you.
So much so that it feels likeyour identity has shifted.
Now you're.
Now you're an amputee.
Like, now you gottareorientate how you do everything
in your life.
Now.
You used to write with one hand.
(13:06):
You have to write another.
Everything has to changearound the loss of that hand.
And you'd rather have tofigure out how to live your life
without lust than lose yourwhole life because of lust.
Oh, I know this is helpingsomebody right now, because when
I talk about cleaning house,I'm talking about remove the things
(13:28):
that make it feel like youremoved a part of your identity.
That's how you know you'regetting free.
But I always watch this.
I always listen to this.
I always do this on my phone.
Remove the things that feellike you would be removing part of
your identity because you'reonly removing the part that's cancerous.
Oh, I'm telling you now, thesethree steps.
(13:51):
I'm gonna give you bad newsnow, before I give you the good news,
these three steps do not inand of themselves, produce lasting
victory over lustful thoughts.
And let me redeem it for you.
I know some of you are like,I'm screaming right now in the chat
because he's preaching, butthese three things I gave you, that's
not all.
(14:11):
Because I wanna give you thegood news so that the bad news is
this is not going to solve it.
It's going to help.
But the good news is, you now,this is.
I want you to hear me now.
All the bloggers and thehaters probably did not get this
far into the teaching, becausethey never do.
(15:33):
I am not preaching so that youwould become sexually repressed.
The Bible is not aninstruction manual for sexual repression.
It's so that you will besexually satisfied and sexually fulfilled.
And so my desire is not thatyou would be repressed, but that
you would be fulfilled.
(15:55):
But I will tell you this.
Lust can never be fulfilled.
Lust is insatiable.
Lust can never be fulfilled.
Which means if your problem islust, then you have to do the things
I talked about.
But lust is never fulfilled.
And what I'm trying to helpyou get is true intimacy, which is
(16:17):
only through the covenant of marriage.
And then when you righteouslyfulfill your sexual desires within
that covenant, within thatway, you can be fulfilled.
You can actually be sexually satisfied.
But lust can never be fulfilled.
And so here's the thing.
People think they're going tosolve lust with marriage.
(16:40):
Wrong.
You cannot solve lust withmarriage, because lust is insatiable,
which means you'll get marriedto the right person, but you will
be wired the wrong way, andyou will never be satisfied.
And then you'll end up cheating.
And if you don't cheat withanother person, you'll cheat with
another person through ascreen, you'll cheat with a video.
You'll cheat with yourself,but you will not be sexually satisfied
(17:06):
because lust is never satisfied.
Lust is not solved by marriage.
That's so good for somebody to hear.
Right now there's this great reversal.
I want to end this on.
And then I want to pray for you.
Okay?
Be not conformed to the world.
So we establish that.
But then it goes on to say inRomans, but be transformed by the
(17:30):
renewing of your mind.
That.
Why?
Why should you renew your mind?
So that you can prove what isgood and acceptable and the perfect
will of God.
So here's the thing.
Until you renew your mind, youcan't even prove what is the good
and acceptable and perfectwill of God.
(17:51):
Now, every day when you wakeup, you actually have thousands of
new brain cells.
And scientists call it neurogenesis.
And doesn't it say in theBible that he makes his mercies new
and every day?
Whew, that's a revelation now,because that means if you wake up
every single morning, nomatter where you live, around the
world, watching right now,that you have thousands of new brain
(18:14):
cells that were created whileyou slept.
Neurogenesis.
And the Bible says he makesGod makes his mercies new every day.
That means every single dayyou wake up, you have another opportunity
to transform your brain.
You have another opportunityto renew your mind.
And this ain't gonna be fixedby deliverance.
Listen, you get delivered by ademon, but the habitat that that
(18:37):
demon created remains.
And then they come back,wanting to take more territory, and
they bring their friends.
And so, listen, I wish I couldjust do a deliverance, and you're
done.
But if you don't learn theconvergence of discipline with deliverance,
renewing your mind everysingle day, you will not reverse
it and stay free.
And if you haven't already,please, please, please take heart,
(19:04):
because your freedom is here.
I want to pray for you right now.
Your freedom is here.
Like, you don't have to livein guilt, shame, condemnation.
Therefore, there is nocondemnation for those who are in
Christ Jesus.
You don't have to live underthat bond, that mental and emotional
bondage.
You don't have to live boundby demons.
That's a whole nother teaching.
(19:26):
So here's what I want you to do.
Because some of you arecleaning house.
Some of you are going to comeup and have to delete apps off of
your phone.
Some of you are going to haveto block numbers of friends with
benefits.
Some of you, you know what youhave to do.
Do it cause you love the Lord more.
Because you've got greatnessinside of you and you're destined
to do great things for the Lord.
And you're not going tosacrifice your destiny or lower yourself
(19:49):
to the level of lust.
Come on, I know this is good.
So let me just help you.
I want to pray for you right now.
And let's not pray a littlepatty cake prayer.
Let's pray a real prayer right now.
I'm asking you, Father, I pray.
Right now we take captiveevery single vile, demonic, lustful,
(20:10):
perverse thought.
Now in the name of Jesus, eveneverything we have viewed through
lust and pornography andthings that we've experienced through
trauma, molestation, rape,Father, promiscuity, perversion,
God of all kinds, Lord, rightnow we take it captive.
Now in the name of Jesus, wepull down every single stronghold
(20:31):
that has erected itself upagainst your word.
And Father, I thank you thatfreedom, freedom is coming now.
And Father, I thank you thatyou are giving us righteous fulfillment
of our sexual desires throughour spouse, God, that you're bringing
us into the covenant ofmarriage to fulfill our sexual desires.
(20:53):
And we are not going to berepressed, but we are going to be
completely and totally free.
Some of you, right now aswe're praying, I feel this so strongly.
You need to just begin to gothrough a place of repentance.
Repent just means turn.
It just means like you'resaying, God, I'm turning from my
wicked ways.
I'm not going to in any way,shape or form continue.
(21:16):
So just repent.
Repent is just simply saying,God, I'm not doing this again.
I'm not going back.
Father, I thank you that youare faithful and just to forgive
those who repent.
And so, Father, we repent.
We repent.
We're not blaming it on demons.
We're not.
Lord, it's us.
And more so than sinful acts,we are repenting right now because
(21:39):
we turn from you.
And we are supposed to worshipyou and pray without ceasing.
And so, God, we turn ourhearts back to you right now and
we say, God, we belong to you now.
Lastly, I want to pray tobreak every demonic power because
listen, we're not blaming thison the devil, but we're also not
letting the devil hide.
(22:01):
And so, every spirit of lustand perversion, I command you to
go.
In the name of Jesus.
Out of every single person.
Under the sound of my voice,in Jesus name, every spirit of lust
and perversion, we break yourpower and command you to loose them
and let them go now.
Come out of their mind.
Come out of their appetite.
Out.
(22:21):
In the name of Jesus, go.
Lust of the eyes.
Out in Jesus name.
Lust of the hands.
Out in Jesus name.
Go.
Now.
Loose them now.
In Jesus name.
Out.
Out.
Now every single curse of lustand perversion be broken in the name
of Jesus.
