Repentance | Matt Chandler + Jennie Allen | IF:One Night (With ASL)

I'm sitting over there listening to Matt and feeling this room and just saying, let's do this thing right now. Like this isn't some show. This is a chance for us to get right with God. And so we're going to do it. We're going to do it how the college kids do it, y'all. We're going to yell it out. We're not playing games. But Matt, you said something backstage. You were feeling the same thing. Yeah. Here's just a sense, just a sense for the room. I think because the difficulties and travails of life and the thousands of things that could be going on at any given moment, there's a tendency for us to just kind of make peace with what the enemy is doing in our lives, to just make peace that raising kids is hard and maybe they'll eventually be on fire for Jesus or maybe they won't. Or maybe this is the best version of me I'll ever be. Or this is as much power as I'll ever walk in or I'll never really be this addiction or I'm never going to. And what we do in that moment is we just kind of make these agreements with the enemy. We make peace. And I just I want you to come out. I just want you to come out of agreement with that tonight. I just want you to make no peace with him, make no peace with him. But that requires courage, like the lies prevalent and to step into the light with what we know is ugly is terrifying. But it's the way you break the peace treaty with the enemy that you say, I'll give you no peace in my life. You'll have no peace in my kids, my family, my relationship with my friend, my husband, my money. I give you no peace. I didn't get to the part of my story when the when when the room broke in S.E.U. Everybody was yelling out their words, but there was a girl in the back that one of my friends was standing near and she was heaving, heaving on the ground. And when it was quiet in a religious environment, she stood up and yelled abortion. And then she crumbled to the ground. And everyone that was in that room would say that's the moment the room broke. And so we didn't plan this, but let's do it. So whatever you need to say, for some of you, it's a sin. And for some of you, it's a weight. Hebrews 12 makes that distinction. And I'm so grateful for that because some people will yell out suicidal ideation. And I want you to know that's not a sin, that you have been in bondage and in war within yourself because of the enemy. And to speak it out is to release the power of the enemy because you don't want the devil to be alone with you in the dark saying whatever the hell he wants. You need to bring other people in it. And so that's what we're going to do right now. And so here's what I say is if we all say it together and we all say it loud enough, not everybody's going to hear your answer. So you ready? You got it? Let's be bold. And I want to speak to all of you in awkward living rooms. Do it with us. Let me just say this. It's not easy.

Do you think it was easy for that girl? That cost her everything. It was the price of the Spirit of God falling on that place for 10 days and changing it. So you pay it. And you know what's crazy every time you do it? Freedom comes. And you never regret it. So, you ready? Here we go team. Everywhere, all over the world, right now. One, two, three, go. Go, keep going, keep going, keep going. Up top, say it. Keep going. Keep going. Yeah. That's so good. So good. That's so good. Yes, Timothy. Say it or not. Let's forget this. Come on. You got this. You got this. You got this. ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪

♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ King, we praise you, Jesus. How easy is this for you? So lavish love upon these sisters in the name of Jesus. And for every word that was just spoken and the ones that weren't. Your power from the cross is enough. There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. We stand on it, we believe it, we know it to be true. Would we be a church that is safe to say the worst? Because we know that it makes you and your salvation that dear and that real. So God, I pray for healing. Rain down your freedom. As we keep singing, God, we pray for healing. We pray that the sin that has bound us

would not bind us anymore. And for every person that didn't say it out loud during this song, would they say it out loud? That bondage would not rule over our lives. The enemy would have no power over this room, over every room listening. Over the church any longer. In Jesus' name, Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Thank you. Oh, we thank you for the Fire. It speaks a better word. Everything's changed. It's getting harder to recognize the person I was before I encountered Christ. I don't walk like I used to. And I don't talk like I used to. I've been washed from the inside. I've been washed from the inside. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I know it was the blood. It could have only been the blood.

Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I know it was the blood. It could have only been the blood. Oh, I have no doubt about it. I cannot explain. But nothing's more real than this. In the presence of God. Oh, what my heart experienced. When my shame hit the waist high. And my sin met the most high. I was washed from the inside. I was washed from the inside. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I know it was the blood. It could have only been the blood. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I know it was the blood. It could have only been the blood. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I know it was the blood. It could have only been the blood. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I know it was the blood. It could have only been the blood.

It could have only been the blood. Oh, it's nothing but the blood of Jesus. Yes. It's never been about performance, perfection, or striving for acceptance. Let me tell you, it's only by the blood. It's never been about deserving or earning. It's a gift that's freely given. Let me tell you, it's only by the blood. Oh, does anybody wanna be holy, righteous, glorified, and spotless? Let me tell you, it's only by the blood. Oh, does anybody want to be worthy, forgiven, justified, really living? Let me tell you, it's only by the blood. Hallelujah, hallelujah. I know it was the blood. It could have only been the blood. Hallelujah, hallelujah. I know it was the blood. Oh, does anybody want to be holy, righteous, purified, and spotless? Let me tell you, it's only by the blood. Does anybody want to be worthy, forgiven, justified, really living? Let me tell you, it's only by the blood. Oh, does anybody, anybody want to be holy, righteous, purified, and spotless? Yes, we do. Let me tell you, it's only by the blood. Oh, does anybody want to be worthy, forgiven, justified, really living? Let me tell you, it's only by the blood. Hallelujah, hallelujah. I know it was the blood.

It could have only been the blood. Hallelujah, hallelujah. I know it was the blood. It could have only been the blood. Jesus, we are so thankful for the blood of Jesus. We are so thankful for the blood. What would we do without it? Who would we be without it? We thank you, Lord. We thank you that you cover, you protect, and you restore all through the blood. And we are grateful for that. We thank you for what you're doing. In Jesus' name we pray, amen. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
