This is Transformation Church Podcast. Here at TC we represent God to the lost and found for transformation in Christ.

From wherever you're listening we hope you're encouraged by this week's message.

I got a lot to do today.

Um, cause we start week two.

Of a series we're calling Secure the Back.

So, now if you were here last week you realize that securing the bag is not what we really want to do.

We want to steward the bag.

And um, I know there's a lot of people because that's a cultural term that really want to really are having a hard time with this whole thing.

Like, okay so how's my go to my supposed to do?

You know what I'm saying?

Because I'm out here hustling, I'm out here grinding, I'm trying to secure the bag but you just told me don't secure the bag, just stored the bag.

Am I supposed to be broken, served the Lord or am I supposed to, and I said hold on, let me help everybody understand this just a little better.

See, this is my bag.

And all God is asking everybody to do is to surrender your bag to the one who gave you the bag in the first place.

Now, I want to help you because I didn't buy this bag, I didn't print on this bag, you didn't wake yourself up this morning, you didn't give yourself all the abilities, you may have worked on them and stewarded over them but they were given to you.

And so the thing that I believe God wants us to do is open up our bag in this series.

And say, Father, whatever is in my bag you can have it.

And I know some of y'all are frustrated right there because don't nobody see inside your bag.

Everything in your life is secure.

That's why even when we mention today we're starting big groups and belong groups and it's a room full of people I don't know and we're sharing our life together.

You're like, uh-huh, no.

I'm not telling anybody, giving anybody, showing anybody what's in my bag because when you're insecure about something you secure.
