Summary

Bishop Henry Fernandez challenges believers to stop living with 'unfinished business' by overcoming fear and procrastination through a deeper connection with God and the courage to break negative cycles.

Key points
  • Many believers are walking around with the label 'unfinished' because they have allowed fear and procrastination to stall their divine purpose.
  • Inability to accomplish goals is often rooted in negative social circles and a failure to maintain a personal, consistent conversation with God.
  • Breaking cycles of frustration requires 'cutting off' toxic relationships, bad habits (like uncontrollable spending), and negative self-talk.
  • Psalm 91 serves as a divine guarantee of protection and success for those who move out of fear and into their God-given assignments.

Identify one 'unfinished' task or dream you have been procrastinating on due to fear. This week, take one concrete step toward completing it, whether that is applying for a course, opening a savings account, or initiating a difficult but necessary conversation.

Reflection questions
  1. What is the specific 'unfinished business' in your life that you have been avoiding?
  2. Who are the 'toxic energies' or negative influences in your circle that might be keeping you in a cycle of frustration?
  3. How would your daily decisions change if you truly believed Psalm 91's promise that God will protect you from every trap and disaster?
  4. When was the last time you had a personal conversation with God that wasn't just listening to someone else pray?

3:59ability to win in life
4:02he allowed you to come to this Earth for
4:06a reason you are not an afterthought

6:49what God has placed in you many of you
6:53are walking around watch this with the
6:56label on your forehead that says
6:59unfinished
7:04and you're in this room this morning

7:48graduated this year
7:51and two years ago four years ago God
7:54told you to go back to school and get
7:56your degree
7:57and for four years you've been walking
7:59around the planet with the label
8:02unfinished
8:06God has been prompting you to turn your
8:09life over to him can I just be honest
8:12with you your life is a total wreck
8:17and you know he's the only way
8:21you have tried men
8:23and they messed you up

9:04I'm trying to redeem myself
9:09I'm trying to redeem this
9:12[Laughter]
9:16I'm good with you now I'm good okay
9:18Praise Jesus
9:21but a lot of Unfinished Business
9:24walking around with the labels so I
9:27firmly believe that your inability to
9:29perform and accomplish things
9:35are caused by three uh two things I
9:37should say
9:39your inability to accomplish things
9:42are caused by these three things
9:49and they want to read them out to you or
9:52two things I should say it's fear and
9:55procrastination
10:00these are the two things
10:03that has prevented you
10:06from getting things done in your life
10:10fear and procrastination and I'm sure
10:14what I'm not quite sure I should say uh
10:18why fear and procrastination is has made
10:22us to gravitate more if you will to to
10:27to to being fearful and to to to not
10:31wanting to do what we know we're
10:34supposed to do
10:36I'm not sure
10:38not sure why
10:40is it
10:41that fear and procrastination that makes
10:44us gravitate to them more than we do to
10:47God's instructions and thus living the
10:50life of faith
10:52most of us are fully aware of what we
10:55need to do we're fully aware
10:57and first of all we know we need to be
11:00fully committed to God that's the first
11:02thing
11:04we know we need to be fully committed to
11:08God
11:09but fear and procrastination oh I'll
11:12give my life to God next year let me
11:15just get some stuff together first
11:18and then the fear of what if I don't
11:22stick it out
11:24what if I don't continue on this Faith
11:27Journey what if my friends laugh at me
11:30what if I miss out on all the good stuff
11:34that the world has to offer me
11:38listen to me
11:39we know that life offers us many God
11:42opportunities that can be scary at times
11:47to pursue
11:49every day God gives us new mercies and
11:52these mercies are opportunities and
11:55sometimes they are scary
11:58for us to do
12:00when God will challenge you and he'll
12:02say trust me on doing certain things
12:04it's scary
12:06and I don't know why we think we're
12:08smarter than God
12:10that we want to do it our way
12:13then God will say trust me I have a
12:17better plan for your life
12:19trust me read your word pray to me every
12:23day and be a good citizen be the best
12:26person you can don't follow your friends
12:28don't follow the company that that you
12:31keep and don't follow you some of your
12:33relatives and your friends and honor me
12:36and I will prove to you that in serving
12:39God there's a big reward in the end why
12:41do we choose to do things our way I
12:44don't get it
12:49thirdly we need to stop wasting time
12:52doubting God and our own abilities
12:56need to stop that man we need to First
12:59fully commit ourselves to God secondly
13:02we need to embrace those risky scary
13:06moments that we get
13:09When God Says step out
13:11just Just Surrender to me
13:14when God just say step out
13:17and try love again
13:20no matter how you've been bruised and
13:22battered no matter how people have
13:25disappointed you
13:27no matter how that man has walked out on
13:29your life no matter how you got a
13:31divorce and you lost everything
13:34no matter how somebody cheated on you
13:37step out
13:39and love again
13:42but you don't want to take the risk
13:46because you think just being by yourself
13:49and torturing yourself
13:52is going to benefit you in life
13:56God is saying walk away from Fear
14:00step out again when God is saying you
14:02had bankruptcy you lost everything you
14:06made bad financial decisions
14:08and God is saying to you I'm giving you
14:11opportunities every day to make good
14:14choices
14:16that if you turn yourself over to me and
14:19you honor me I will take you from the
14:22bottom I will take you from somebody who
14:25have lost it all and I would bring you
14:27to a level where you will gain much more
14:30than you've lost
14:34but you have to do it this way
14:38that if you keep
14:40taking your money and doing whatever you
14:42want to do and hide it from God and
14:45don't want to give it to God and come up
14:46with all kinds of reasons why you
14:48shouldn't
14:49and when you think you're grown when you
14:51think you know it all
14:54and for those of you young people who
14:56don't want to listen to your parents
14:59and you think you know it all
15:01they don't want any better you think
15:03you're young and and you love the trends
15:06of society
15:07this is what I see on social media and
15:10they look happy in social media and
15:13everybody's showing off and taking their
15:15their pictures and posting and it looks
15:18like they're successful so you don't
15:20want to hear from your auntie you don't
15:22want to hear from your grandparents
15:23because they are boring
15:26and you want to do life your way
15:30but you're not reading your Bible there
15:32was a prodigal who went to his father
15:35and he thought he knew it all and he
15:37thought he could live the big life
15:39without the instructions of his parents
15:41and his parents was nice enough to give
15:44him all of his inheritance some of you
15:46don't realize that if you were given
15:49every opportunity and money that you
15:52need right now you would blow it because
15:54you don't have enough sense right now
15:58to spend it wisely
16:02and this guy in the Bible blew it
16:06you young people need to listen and I
16:08know sometimes our delivery as older
16:11people is not good sometimes we're
16:13forceful and you may not like the way
16:14I'm preaching because I'm screaming at
16:16you
16:17that's what a parent is supposed to do
16:20because sometimes you don't get it
16:24so we got to yell at you
16:26[Applause]
16:34and this boy left his parents house
16:38with this money
16:39he thought he was on cloud nine
16:44and he parted
16:47did all the great and wonderful things
16:51until the Bible says he found himself in
16:55the pig's pen
16:58be careful how you're coming out of a
17:00good home
17:02with your own room
17:03[Applause]
17:05washing machine and dryer
17:08microwave and air fryers
17:13[Applause]
17:21because if you think you're smarter than
17:24your parents
17:26life is going to hit you so hard
17:30that you're going to find yourself in
17:32the pig's pen
17:34and the Bible says he came to himself
17:36I'm just praying you young people will
17:38finally come to yourself
17:41and realize that you're not that smart
17:46that you can make life
17:48without God
17:49and the Bible says he wasted
17:52most of his years
17:56and I want some of you to hear me today
17:59do not waste your years
18:03don't do it
18:06do not waste the next five years of your
18:08life do not waste the next 10 years of
18:10your life
18:12for those of you in college do your best
18:16those of you considering going to
18:18college go to college do your best do
18:20not waste your years please don't do it
18:26don't do it
18:28because if you waste it finally one day
18:31you're going to come to your senses
18:34you're going to realize
18:37that you've lost so much that you may
18:39not be able to regain it
18:42so let me ask you two questions this
18:44morning
18:46where's your God confidence
18:50Philippians 4 3 tells us I can do all
18:55things so where's your God confidence
18:58where's your God confidence
19:01where's your self-confidence not just
19:04your God confidence
19:06where's your self-confidence
19:08because when it comes to you believing
19:11that you will see the goodness of God in
19:15your life
19:16where's that confidence
19:19Psalm 27 13 and 14 says and I love this
19:24I remain confident of this
19:29I will see the goodness of the Lord
19:31in the land of the living
19:34can you imagine you walking around every
19:36single day
19:37confessing that I know I I will see the
19:43goodness of the Lord in the land of the
19:45living regardless of what's happening to
19:48our society regardless of a pending uh
19:52economy meltdown regardless of the
19:55shootings regardless of the crime
19:58regardless of all the drama in the world
20:01I am confident that I will see the
20:07goodness of the Lord in the land of the
20:09living and I love verse 14 wait for the
20:12Lord be strong and take heart and wait
20:15for the Lord in other words the blessing
20:18that's coming to you you got to wait for
20:20it
20:22it's not something that you can just
20:24wake up every day oh God you're going to
20:26bless me because sometimes listen his
20:28timing is not your time in
20:32so you see fair and procrastination are
20:36spirits that have strong powers that can
20:39pull you and I to live a life
20:42with strong emotions if you will
20:46that will threaten your hope
20:49to have healthy relationship with God
20:52and to possess the things of God
20:56don't allow your fears and
20:58procrastination
21:00to cause you not to possess the things
21:02of God but when but when God gives you
21:04an instruction if you will and you
21:07activate your faith based on what you
21:10know he told you to do then the power of
21:13faith
21:14will pull you
21:16into getting the things that God wants
21:20you to do done
21:22the power of faith will get you
21:26to do the things that God wants you to
21:31do so the choice is yours today you will
21:35either Embrace fear
21:37and let that cause you to procrastinate
21:41or you will have faith and be a doer
21:45that someone getting things done
21:48throughout their entire life
21:52be a door
21:54quit talking for the last five years
21:56about what you want to do
21:59they're doing it
22:02you have the power to do it
22:05quit talking about well I want to give
22:06my life to God just do it
22:11I want I want to be right with God many
22:13of you are streaming right now I want to
22:15be right with God I understand just do
22:17it
22:19you know the things you're doing is not
22:21right just do it
22:24God you know I want to accomplish this
22:25just do it
22:28God I want to get out of debt just do it
22:31first thing you need to do is stop
22:33spending more than what you earn
22:38you don't need a spirit of God to reveal
22:40that to you
22:45just do it
22:46your chances to live in fear watch this
22:49for most of your life are high it's a
22:53high possibility when two things happen
22:56number one
22:58when your conversations
23:01are are when most of your conversations
23:03I should say are with negative Energies
23:09you will always live in fear
23:13when you're bombarded or you camp out in
23:16environments that are negative energies
23:18such as watch this when you keep hanging
23:21out with toxic people
23:28be careful of who you're talking to
23:33be careful of who you're hanging out
23:35with
23:36these toxic people will kill your dreams
23:40will weigh you down
23:42right number two when you communicate
23:46with God
23:49at a bare minimum
23:53when you occasionally talk to him
23:57let me pose a question you don't have to
23:59answer it out loud just be honest with
24:01yourself
24:04you have lived the last seven days since
24:06last Sunday
24:08whether you were here in person or
24:10streaming seven days went by
24:14how often have you spoken to God in
24:16those seven days
24:18think about that
24:21how many times you prayed in the last
24:23seven days
24:26can I be honest with you many of you
24:29since last Sunday the only time you
24:31honestly prayed is when those two
24:33students
24:34got on stage
24:36and you were in your seat watching
24:38virtually watch this
24:40and you listen to somebody else prayed
24:43that's not you
24:44you didn't pray
24:47as I opened the sermon I prayed that God
24:51would bless us but that was not you so
24:54my question is
24:56when was the last time you had a
24:57conversation with god and it was
25:00personal
25:02it was not a message a message I should
25:05say you heard someone said to God
25:09some of you are so nosy you love to
25:11listen to other people's messages
25:18but in the last seven days
25:21how often did you take up
25:24the novel that is filled with multiple
25:27love stories
25:30I happen to have my Bible app so my
25:32Bible is no longer printed format it's
25:34in my phone
25:36when was the last time you read about
25:38him and the message he sent into you
25:42yet still
25:44if you're honest
25:46you might have only prayed once twice
25:49maximum four times this this month or
25:52this week
25:54but how many times you've been on your
25:56phone
25:58how many times have you opened your app
26:01and prove me wrong I think there's a way
26:03you can go in
26:05how many how much hours have you spent
26:09posted
26:11in the chat room
26:15talking and chatting with toxic people
26:18[Music]

34:03your mouth
34:06what's coming out of your mouth is
34:08canceling what you're dreaming about
34:13foreign
34:16Speak Life into your situation the Bible
34:18says life and death where
34:21in your tongue
34:23parents stop speaking negative things
34:26over your children
34:30care
34:35I don't care how their father is
34:38frustrating you stop beating up on your
34:41children because you can't beat up on
34:43the man
34:44[Applause]
34:49cut it off

34:56think some of you you got to clean up
34:58your thoughts
35:03get rid of your thoughts
35:05your thoughts are bad
35:08the way you're thinking
35:09they're so negative
35:12even sitting in this service streaming
35:14right now well I don't know what
35:15demonstration you're doing that don't
35:17make no sense to me
35:18this you can never see positive things
35:22you're always negative
35:24somebody call you hey it's Sunday it's a
35:27great Sunday child I don't know what
35:28you're talking about I that's negative
35:33get your thoughts together
35:35whatsoever things are true honest and of
35:38good report that's the things you're
35:40supposed to think of
35:43that's what the Bible says
35:45and then here's the big one
35:47I think it's the famous one for all of
35:50us got to get rid of fear
35:56fear I don't know if I do I don't know
36:00if I can afford that I don't know if I
36:01could do that I don't know if I don't
36:03know if I can serve God right now
36:04because yes you can get rid of fear get
36:07rid of fear get rid of fear man get rid
36:09of fear some of you your your ability to
36:13walk in fear has cost you because five
36:16years ago 10 years ago God was prompting
36:19you and he was telling you I know you're
36:21born again but I want you to have a good
36:24life I want to bless you with a piece of
36:26real estate because some of you are so
36:29religious that you are so committed to
36:31get into heaven and you don't want to
36:33occupy on the earth and God was telling
36:35you long time own something in South
36:38Florida buy the real estate oh God I
36:41couldn't afford it I don't have the
36:43money but yesterday you put money on
36:45everything else and you couldn't save at
36:47the down payment and five years Ten
36:49Years Later you can't afford it now
36:51because it's too expensive
36:53[Music]
36:53[Applause]
36:55because you procrastinated
37:00and all you do is walk around in a
37:02circle
37:03and some of you just live your life
37:05always begging God for a miracle
37:10when you think that God is excited when
37:12you come to him begging him for miracles
37:15no
37:17Miracles are supposed to be people in
37:19Desperate situations you're not
37:21desperate you're just not listening
37:28do y'all still like me
37:30do y'all still like me
37:33don't blame me blame him I'm just
37:35speaking
37:37because he's speaking through me
37:41here's the last one you need to get rid
37:42of and this is the tough one
37:47really tough man
37:51it's following Society
38:01the moment you decide and I'm closing
38:05that you're no longer going to follow
38:07Society
38:10and all those distractions
38:14you will no longer go like this
38:17but because no negative energy is
38:20fueling you
38:21but the word of God
38:23he'll then order your steps in the right
38:26direction
38:31I want to end with a scripture and I
38:34close and I pray with you I want to end
38:35with the scripture psalm 91.
38:38let's go there psalm 91.
38:41I love this

39:29to trap you
