You're Not Stuck Because You're Lazy. You're Stuck Because You Keep Picking It Back Up.
Saturday, 21 February, 2026
You're working hard. You're showing up. You're doing everything right. So why does it feel like you keep ending up in the same place? Pastor Eric Thomas breaks down the real reason, and it's not your effort, your discipline, or your faith. It's what you keep picking back up every time God tries to free you from it. Not the bad stuff. The good stuff. The comfortable stuff. The stuff that used to work, but is quietly holding you back from what's next. This message will change how you see your season. 📖 KEY SCRIPTURES: Hebrews 12:1-2 — "Let us throw off everything that hinders…" John 15:2 — "Every branch that bears fruit He prunes…" Galatians 5:1 — "It is for freedom that Christ has set you free…" 1 Corinthians 10:23 — "Not everything is beneficial." 💡 WHAT YOU'LL TAKE FROM THIS: — Why 2026 demands a different kind of letting go — The difference between sinful and out of season — Why God prunes what's actually working — How to stop making good things your god — What it really means to fix your eyes Chapters 00:00:00 Welcome: The Gift of Today 00:01:12 The Strategy: Lay It Down 00:01:59 Stop Dipping and Looking: Trust the Process 00:02:57 2026 Is a Marathon, Not a Sprint 00:05:23 Own the Pain Before the Strategy 00:04:47 Why Some Believers Never Break Through 00:11:11 Hebrews 12:1 - Throw Off Everything That Hinders 00:13:17 Fix Your Eyes on Jesus, Not Everyone Else 00:17:01 God Already Handled the Sin Part 00:17:59 John 15:2 - Every Branch That Bears Fruit He Prunes 00:21:11 Pruning Is Not Punishment, It's Proof You're Producing 00:21:43 The Version of You Right Now Can't Sustain Where You're Going 00:22:00 Simplify Your Life: Three Things Only 00:23:32 Not Everything Is Beneficial 00:24:10 Some Things Aren't Wrong, They're Just Off Course 00:24:29 Everything Is on the Table With God 00:25:37 God Lightens You So You Can Finish the Climb 00:25:46 Closing Prayer: Letting Go and Letting God 📲 CONNECT WITH APOC MINISTRY: 📱 Download the App → Search "APOC Ministry" in your app store 🙏 Submit a Prayer Request → Tap "Prayer" in the app 💸 Partner With Us → Tap "Giving" in the app 📅 Join Us LIVE: Saturdays @ 11AM 🔔 Subscribe and turn on notifications so you never miss a message. ABOUT APOC MINISTRY A Place of Change (APOC) Ministry exists for one reason — transformation. Not just showing up to church, but actually becoming someone different when you leave. Founded by Dr. Eric Thomas — globally recognized speaker, author, and motivational force — APOC is built on the belief that the anointing changes what willpower can't. Pastor E.T. didn't grow up in church. He grew up in the streets of Detroit. And that's exactly why his message cuts through — he's not preaching theory, he's preaching his life. Alongside him is Associate Pastor TJ Tyus, whose leadership and pastoral heart help shape the culture of APOC from the inside out — equipping the church to grow not just in numbers, but in depth. Together they are building a ministry that meets you where you are and refuses to leave you there. Saturdays @ 11AM 📍 In person & streaming live
