Fresh Cut: You’re Getting Cut Either Way // Fresh Fruit (Part 4) // Michael Todd

Published 2024-03-03
Cutting may be painful, but being cut by God is a promise of more fruit in your life.
In this compelling message, Pastor Mike reveals the transformative power of God's cutting process. Drawing from Matthew 7:18-20 and John 15:1-3, he unpacks how God's cutting eliminates what isn't producing and expands what is.
We pray this message encourages you to embrace surrender and trust in God's plan for growth and transformation, knowing that His cuts are ultimately for your good and His glory.

    My sermon notes for "Fresh fruit, the proof is in the fruit// A fresh cut, you're getting cut either way" week 4: 1.) Be the proof of what you desire to do 2.) The desire to prove yourself comes from inward doubt that you can't produce good fruit. Instead of trying to prove people wrong, provide God right 3.) Everybody gets exposed by their fruit. Faith is production. Just walk. Stay focus on God and not man-made traditions, stay aligned with God 4.) As a believer, you should be able to see the impact of your life. When you produce fruit, you become desirable. Don't quit on things that produce fruit even though they are not perfect 5.) You're getting cut either way. Are you ready to be cut? One cut is full of pain, and the other cut is full of promise. Being cut by God is a promise of more fruit 6.) When God cuts on your life, he promises to use you again. Your desire for comfort can make you despise the cut. True comfort comes from the place of cutting 7.) The cuts gives you the edge. Have you been with God long enough to trust the cuts? 8.) Dont focus on the pain of the cut but on the promises of the cut. Being cut by God is a promise of more fruit 9.) Surrender to the cut, abide What is the cut of God?: 1.) Corrections. It's (corrections) God's love. If God is not correcting you, be concerned 2.) U- unveiling. Is there anything in your life that has become a curtain between you and God? God wants to cut away all the things separating you and him 3.) T- testing. God is going to cut and test. The testing and cutting are going to happen in your life. Will you trust him in the cutting and testing Scripture reference: Matthew 7:18-20, 27:50-52 John 15:1-3,5 Hebrews 12:6-11 Proverbs 27:6, 3:5-6
  • Not me sitting at my cubicle at work this instant tryna recover debts for my employers bawling my eyes out when Pastor Mike said " You know why God does not turn on all of the blessings? It's because your hand is still on it" 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 felt goosebumps all over my body it's as if God was talking to me directly! Thank you Lord for the wake up call!😭😭😭😭😭
  • @temmietaft2552
    I’m sitting here in my hospital bed absolutely rejoicing over this on-time message. Praise God!!!
  • Pastor Mike this message cut throw bone and marrow. I talk too much, trying to prove something to people who isn't feeling the cutting that is currently happening. I'm being cut as a single mom, in my finances and in the process of starting a new business. This message is proof that you've embrace the benefit of receiving A FRESH CUT and now it's changing millions of lives. God bless you Pastor, much love and appreciation from South Africa.

    I paused the video because I was fascinated by the gadget he had on his wrist and I had noticed he has a tattoo that says “you have a friend” and I just started bursting into tears. My friend actually sent me this video. I don’t believe in coincidences I believe in God.
  • @nikamoff5835
    Wow Shout out to the Barber 💈 doing this while he preach 💯👌🏾Great message!!!!
  • I wish I was in Tulsa.. Mike is so on point with the visuals and his vision helps me to explain to others when I need to the word of God. I understand so much better the word of God ❤
  • I use to be a barber, last season God told me to drop my sword “identity of being a barber” Took me on this journey “went from dreads to a bald head “ Trimmed my tree to produce fresh fruit in this season of my life. Great illustration.

  • @levih.3501
    This is hands down one of the best sermons and corresponding illustrations I've heard in a long time!
  • I love how Pastor Mike allowed his barber to complete the cut without bn embarrassed or secretive about his enhancement to the cut. He so thorough 💯
  • They better leave Pastor Mike alone, this man of God helped me when I didn't believe and his authenticity pulled me closer to the Lord. Thank you Pastor Mike 🙏, keep doing what you do.. There are a lot of lost souls that still needs to be saved and since Jesus is the way to God, you are the way to Jesus.
  • A Prayer when you’re in pain: Father, I would not have asked for this load. At times, it feels too much to bear, but You have chosen to let this be my story. I choose now to make it Your story. I hear You say, Rise up and walk. In Your name and in Your strength, I will. Amen.
  • They could never make me hate you..The true word of God is being preached and the devil is mad!! Keep being who God has called you to be
