    You're Not Suffering. Here's What's Really Happening.

    You've been calling it suffering. You've been calling it surrender. Pastor Eric Thomas says it's neither — and what's actually happening might be the most important thing you hear all year. In Part 3 of the Royal Airlines series, Pastor ET delivers a message that will challenge everything you thought you knew about obedience, people pleasing, and following God's plan. Using the story of King Saul in 1 Samuel 15, he exposes the real reason most Christians stay stuck — not confusion, not weakness, but two competing wills. Yours and God's. If you've ever people-pleased your way out of a blessing, let people's voices drown out God's direction, or found yourself wondering why obedience and people pleasing feel identical — this message is for you. The flight plan is already written. The question is whether you'll follow it. In this message you'll discover: Why "surrender" isn't a real problem — and what the real issue actually is The dangerous difference between people pleasing and true obedience to God How to stop people pleasing when it feels like the right thing to do What King Saul's biggest mistake reveals about our own relationship with God A practical tool to help you know whether you're obeying God or just people pleasing Why people pleasing is actually hurting the people you're trying to help CHAPTERS: Chapters 00:00:00 Welcome: The Gift of Today 00:02:23 There's No Such Thing as Suffering or Surrender 00:05:30 Surrender Only Exists When There's Conflict 00:06:55 You Want to Quit, God Says Stay 00:08:38 You Want Revenge, God Says Forgive 00:10:43 You Want Comfort, God Wants You to Grow 00:12:27 Your Will Versus His Will: The Real Battle 00:15:41 God Doesn't Pay You to Think or Feel 00:16:01 First Samuel 15: When You Were Little in Your Own Sight 00:17:26 The Command: Destroy Everything, No Exceptions 00:21:18 The People Made Me Do It: Saul's Excuse 00:22:25 When God Gives, He Also Gives Instructions 00:24:19 Rebellion Is as the Sin of Witchcraft 00:36:56 You Only Destroyed the Bad Stuff 00:41:49 To Obey Is Better Than Sacrifice 00:46:07 False Repentance: Honor Me Before the People 00:49:34 What Surrender Really Looks Like 00:51:43 Five Wills That Fight Against God's Will 00:52:09 Prayer for Men: Use Your Influence for God's Will 00:54:21 Prayer for Women: Support the Will of God 00:56:00 Prayer for Children: Stop Following the Internet 00:58:11 Next Steps: Connect, Give, and Share ✅ Subscribe and turn on notifications — new messages every Saturday: 👉 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLRzMQFmplNd4-H1X5bj1jA?sub_confirmation=1 📲 Follow us on Instagram: 👉 https://www.instagram.com/apocministry_/ 🎙️ Listen on Apple Podcasts: 👉 https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/apoc-ministry/id1448489948 🎧 Stream on Spotify: 👉 https://open.spotify.com/show/7MSRcKb31rzblPxPpvM5WF?si=5541166622814a17 💛 Support the Mission If today's message moved you, consider partnering with A Place of Change Ministry.

  2. You're Not Weak, You're Just in Control. Here's Why That's the Problem

    14 MARS

    You're Not Weak, You're Just in Control. Here's Why That's the Problem

    Are you doing all the right things, working hard, staying committed, putting in the effort, but still not getting the results you know you should have? The problem might not be your effort. It might be your need to be in control. In this message, Pastor Eric Thomas delivers one of the most raw and personal sermons of the Royal Airlines series, a message about what's really standing between you and everything God has for you. The formula is simple: surrender. Not weakness, surrender. Because the same way you board a plane and hand your life to a pilot you've never met, God is asking you to trust Him with everything you've been white-knuckling on your own. Pastor Eric shares the real story behind his books, from selling 5,000 copies while fighting for control, to 300,000 copies the moment he surrendered the process. Then going back to control. Then failing again. The full cycle — nothing held back. In this message you'll discover: Why motion without progress is a sign you're in control — not God The real reason control feels safe — and why it's actually destroying you Why control is a spiritual problem, not just a personality trait How the book story reveals a pattern that shows up in your relationships, finances, and family What it actually looks like to surrender — not as a feeling, but as a decision The formula: unless a grain of wheat falls and dies, it remains alone Chapters: Chapters 00:00:00 Welcome: The Gift of Today 00:00:40 The Formula: Getting on the Same Page With God 00:04:43 The Plane Illustration: Total Surrender at 35,000 Feet 00:10:09 Motion Without Progress: Why You're Stuck 00:15:22 John 12:24 - Unless a Grain of Wheat Dies 00:16:05 We Don't Want Control Because We're Strong, We Want It Because We're Scared 00:18:11 The Book Story: From 5,000 to 300,000 Copies 00:22:00 Control Is Satanic: The Spirit of Lucifer 00:27:09 The Business Lesson: Letting Dede In 00:38:19 The Cross: Complete Surrender 00:40:35 The Huntsville Story: Obedience Over Feelings 00:44:01 How Do You Feel: I Don't Feel Nothing 00:45:19 Altar Call: Time to Die to Control 📖  Scriptures Referenced: Jeremiah 29:11 — For I know the plans I have for you John 12:24 — Unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies Proverbs 3:5–6 — Lean not unto your own understanding Joshua 1:3 — Every place the sole of your foot shall tread 👇  Take your next step: 🙏  Give Online → https://www.apocministry.org/give 📺  Watch More Sermons → https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLRzMQFmplNd4-H1X5bj1jA?sub_confirmation=1 🎧  Listen on Podcast → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/apoc-ministry/id1448489948 About A Place of Change Ministry Formed in 2008, A Place of Change Ministry (APOC) is built on the practical application of spiritual principles in everyday life.

  3. You're Not Tired of Trying, You're Tired of Giving In

    7 MARS

    You're Not Tired of Trying, You're Tired of Giving In

    Most people don't quit because God told them to move. They quit because something invisible made them uncomfortable. In this message, Pastor TJ Tyus breaks down the one principle that determines whether you drift through life or stay rooted in what actually matters: Priority over Preference = Stability. When preference wins, you drift. When priority wins, you remain. You'll learn: → Why you keep making the right moves for the wrong reasons → How invisible "music" (pressure, comparison, feelings, culture) pulls you out of your assignment → The real reason you can't stay committed — and it's not willpower → How to decide before the pressure shows up → Why staying seated is not passive, it's the most active thing you can do Rosa Parks didn't stay seated because she was tired physically. She said: "I was tired of giving in." This message will challenge you to stop giving in to preference and start living from priority — in your health, your relationships, your faith, and your future.

  4. You're Struggling Because You're in the Wrong Seat | Get Into Your Assigned Seat

    28 FÉVR.

    You're Struggling Because You're in the Wrong Seat | Get Into Your Assigned Seat

    Are you stressed, stuck, or constantly comparing yourself to everyone else? The problem might not be your circumstances — it might be that you're sitting in a seat that was never assigned to you. In this message, Pastor Eric Thomas delivers a word that will shift how you see your life, your purpose, and your next season. Drawing from his own story — homeless at 16, a high school dropout eating from trash cans — Pastor Eric shows what happened when he stopped chasing everyone else's seat and got into his own. Everything changed. God didn't assign your seat by accident. Before you were born, He factored in your gifts, your history, your capacity, and your calling. He said — this seat. This flight. This moment. Your job isn't to find the best seat in the room. It's to get into the one that already has your name on it. In this message you'll discover: Why your struggle may have nothing to do with your effort — and everything to do with your seat How social media comparison is keeping you out of your assignment What it really means that God chose YOU before you ever chose Him Why some seats are seasonal — and how to trust the transfer The leadership principle: every seat has a function, not everyone is called to the mic The formula for your clearance: Calling + Confirmation + Character 📖 Scriptures Referenced: Ephesians 2:10 · Psalm 139:16 · John 15:16 · Romans 12:4–5 · 1 Corinthians 14:40 · Luke 12:48 · Ecclesiastes 12:13 ✈️ Royal Airlines Declaration: "At Place of Change Ministry, we will not compete for seats. We will not self-promote into instability. We will not abandon our assignment because another seat looks better. We will stay where God placed us — until He moves us."

  5. You're Not Stuck Because You're Lazy. You're Stuck Because You Keep Picking It Back Up.

    You're Not Stuck Because You're Lazy. You're Stuck Because You Keep Picking It Back Up.

    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

  8. The Real Reason You Don’t Live Royal Every Day

    1 FÉVR.

    The Real Reason You Don’t Live Royal Every Day

    Why do you feel strong in one moment… and small in the next? Why do you get encouraged, confident, clear then shrink in familiar places, around familiar people, or under familiar pressure? This message exposes the real reason many of us don’t live fully in who God called us to be every day. It’s not a lack of information. It’s not motivation. It’s not effort. It’s unhealed wounds shaping how we think, react, and repeat patterns we swore we were done with. In this message, you’ll discover: Why confidence fades in certain environments The difference between freedom and true royalty How unhealed wounds distort identity Why repetition shapes belief more than truth How to stop shrinking without pretending or performing This isn’t about wearing a crown at church or when you feel good, It’s about understanding why you take it off in specific moments — and how healing restores what was already yours. You don’t earn royalty. You remember it.
