NOT UNTIL… - 1.16.26 - Good Morning LIVE


Listen Later

What do you do when the fast gets hard—when cravings get loud, your flesh pushes back, and you feel tempted to quit? In today’s Good Morning LIVE teaching, Pastor James unpacks Jacob’s overnight wrestling encounter in Genesis 32:24–28 (TPT) and delivers a powerful message called “NOT UNTIL…”—a call to holy persistence in prayer and fasting.
Jacob refused to let go and declared, “No! Not until you bless me!” This message will stir your hunger to press in, keep seeking, and hold on to God until you receive His blessing—His promise, His direction, His refreshing, and His restoration. If you’ve slipped during the fast, there’s no condemnation—get back up and keep pursuing the One who is pursuing you.
✅ In this teaching, you’ll learn:
• Why resistance often shows up right before breakthrough
• How fasting exposes substitutes and strengthens spiritual hunger
• What the “wrestle” is really about—identity, surrender, and transformation
• Why God asks, “What is your name?” and how He renames you
• How to live with a faith-filled “until” for your life, family, and church
