The Things You Love That Don’t Love You Back // Cuffing Season (Part 1) // Michael Todd

Published 2022-05-01
In week one of our new series, Cuffing Season, Pastor Mike asks us “what are you cuffed to?” We’ve all tried to love things that don’t love us back. In this series, God is going to expose what we are cuffed to knowingly or unknowingly, and show us how we can be cuffed to Christ! Check out this message and share it with a friend!

    My friend Enock aged 26 was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic kidney cancer. Please a simple prayer for him from anyone who can see this comment can change the whole situation. Our God is faithful and he can heal him. I believe I will be back here to testify after Enock gets healed. Thanks

    In the name of Jesus, I declare my freedom from the cuffing of alcohol, masturbation and pornography addiction, toxic friendship, and toxic one-way relationship. Thank you ABBA!

    It’s crazy how God works. This sermon was from 7 months ago. I have been watching him for about 2 months and I don’t remember even seeing this lesson. He talks about going to read judges about Samson. Why am I literally already in judges right were they are talking about Samson. I just got on it the day before yesterday. Gods timing, direction and communication is so crazy!!! My mind is blown right now. He is a phenomenal pastor and I thank God for leading me to his sermons!
  • I’m cuffed to someone that shows me daily that he doesn’t love me back .. God please uncuff me from this toxic relationship… I so needed to hear this 😭
  • OMG !!! THIS SERMON NEEDS TO BE IN A BOOK AND SHARED IN EVERY YOUTH CONFERENCE IN WORLD.
  • @charnellc6666
    Here after loving men that don't love me back. I want to be uncuffed from toxicity, attention from fashion, people pleasing and cuff me to Christ.
  • "No matter how much you pray, you'll still end up doing something that you have decided to do"
    Father God through the the help of the Holy Spirit, inspire, lead and guide us to make decisions that are in alignment with your purpose over our lives🙏🏽Amen
  • I am 15 years old and I have been saved for i have been through the most worst times but God has shown his glory and grace within me❤Amen 🙏
  • I challenge anyone reading this to make a list of everything in your life that has you cuffed. And then set a release date for each thing. The second challenge is to not get arrested for the same offense ever again!

    A few months before this series started, I called off my wedding 2weeks before the day. I had also watched 3 couples in ministry lose their 10 and 20 year marriages. I was so mad at God, I started drinking and cutting up. I was SO hopeless. I came across this "by accident" and started watching every week. I got set free AGAIN from my gross sin, just in time to walk through the death of my baby cousin. I would likely have committed suicide from that loss, if I hadn't been reconnected to Jesus before it happened. I'm a California native, born and raised at Bethel Church looking at houses in Tulsa now 😂 I won't go unless Holy Spirit releases me to go. I know better than to make a big move like that unless He sends me, but I want to go so bad! Thank you Jesus for Transformation Church!
  • @MERVIBEZ
    I used to be CUFFED to the idea that I needed a “ring” to get married and the idea that “if he loves me enough he will propose”.. instead of saying “is this the man God made for Me” that shook me... im currently single, just got out of a relationship towards the end of last year. After that I felt God telling me “now it’s my turn” I have now started getting closer to God for me and my son and my husband that God has for me. I am getting my son closer to God as well. I’m so excited for this Journey. 🙌🏽
  • I need an audio version of Mike Todd reading the entire Bible 😂
  • @TheJazzyWay
    Gods timing is becoming comical at this point. Every series literally ministers to the season I’m in. This was so GOOD! My spirit was NEEDING this.
  • I use to avoid sermons like this like the plague. I’m in the process of being delivered completely from my past. Thank you Jesus ❤
  • @dreya.k_
    It took me 4 days to get though this sermon, THIS sermon pivoted my life. I have one thing to say, God don’t leave me, I let go. ❤
