It's Time To Get Up | Pastor Mike Walrond | FCBCNYC

Join us at FCBCNYC for an uplifting and transformative sermon titled "It's Time to Get Up" delivered by Pastor Mike Walrond, affectionately known as Pastor Mike. In this powerful message, Pastor Mike dives deep into John 5:1-9, challenging us to confront and rise above the narratives and habits that have kept us bound to our past damages and disappointments.
Through this sermon, Pastor Mike encourages us to recognize that God is ready to pull us out of our melancholy, even if it means fighting against our own will. It's a call to stop romanticizing our bruising and to rise up from the narratives that have dictated our lives for too long. Pastor Mike reminds us that carrying evidence of our past is not a sign of weakness but a testament to our resilience and the profound transformations that await us.
The sermon addresses the discomfort and destruction we often face, viewing these experiences not as setbacks but as initiations into something profound and life-changing. Pastor Mike emphasizes that we are part of a competitive house of healing, where everyone is rushing to be healed first. However, it's crucial to not let our past destructions hold us back from seizing the moment of healing and breakthrough.
Pastor Mike challenges us to defy the urge to dwell in our wounds, reminding us that we are descendants of individuals who overcame insurmountable odds. He inspires us to claim our mental and spiritual freedom, pushing through to our breakthroughs rather than reinforcing our damages.
This sermon is a beacon of hope for those who have felt stuck, reminding us that we are not destined to remain in our current circumstances. Pastor Mike calls us to get up from our own damages, shift the dynamics that hold us back, and boldly walk into our new season. It's a message of empowerment, urging us not to settle for a glimpse of the good but to strive for the fullness of God's promise for our lives.
Whether you are celebrating your victories or waiting on God to move, this sermon will inspire you to get up, defy the odds, and embrace the new season God has in store for you. Don't miss this life-changing message of hope, resilience, and transformation.
