Transformation Church shares this sermon by Pastor Michael Todd titled “Cuffed To The Cuddle” during the series ‘Cuffing Season’ (Part 14). He said we have all cuddled with someone who is comfortable & convenient. We’ve looked for love, validation, & acceptance, but we’ve settled for the cuddle that’s a cheap copy. He said that when we make these counterfeit connections, we compromise. In week 14 of Cuffing Season, Pastor Mike shows us how to recognize when we’ve settled, and the steps we can take to find God’s best for our relationships.
He said today the Holy Spirit told him to talk to you about being cuffed to the cuddle. The Pastor said the body of Christ has been living in this carnal state of going to things that are not Godly for comfort and they’ve been very intimate and close with it. They’ve been cuddling with things that has the power to kill them. There is something about that embrace and there’s something that happens and there there’s something that happens when they embrace.
Most cuddles are counterfeit connection, cuddles happens in your consciousness before they ever happen in real life. Sometimes we long for relationship more than we long the relationship with God.
You are building something with somebody that’s going to end up being a counterfeit and cause you a catastrophic end, be you have have been cuffed to a connection that is counterfeit, The true there are married people cuddling with somebody other than their spouse.
Counterfeit has the same visual but not same value, Most of our relationships have the visual but no value.
There are many relationships that we have been participating in because we’ve been cuffed to the. cuffed to be close, cuffed to wanting somebody to know us and feel us, have us, we’re not attracted to that, it is not only in relationship but it’s apply in business too. A lot of the relationships that we have is not about attraction, it’s about availability, (who pick up the phone when you call, when I’m in need who shows up)
Stop settling for counterfeit cuddles, counterfeit connection can leave you compromised, Question you should ask yourself “who are you cuddling with”?
when you’re frustrated and bothered where do you lay , when you’ve believed a lie about yourself.
Sometimes we allow people to have cuddle with us when we know that they are not real, and they don’t want to claim us in front of anyone, but when it’s time to cuddle they remember us.
Cuddling usually happens behind closed doors. Most relationships that we allow into our life that are counterfeit and that have the opportunity to leave us compromised it happens in the dark behind closed doors. Be careful the kind of relationship you let into your life.
