I like to start with something funny, 40 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 4: and I heard about this couple. They had been married 41 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 4: for sixty years, and they were sitting on the front 42 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:15,639 Speaker 4: porch together feeling romantic. The wife said, I remember when 43 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 4: you used to always hold my hand. Her husband reached 44 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 4: over and took her hand. She said, I remember, and 45 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 4: you always used to kiss me on the cheek. He 46 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 4: leaned over kissed her on the cheek. She said, I 47 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 4: even remember when you used to nibble on my ear. 48 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 4: He got up and started walking away. She said, what's wrong? 49 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 4: Where are you going? He turned around and said, to 50 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 4: get my teeth. Say it like you mean it. This 51 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,399 Speaker 4: is my Bible. I am what it says. I am. 52 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 4: I have what it says I have. I can do 53 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 4: what it says I can do. Today I will be 54 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 4: taught the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind 55 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 4: is alert, my heart is receptive. I will never be 56 00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:00,959 Speaker 4: the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want 57 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 4: to talk to you today about the power of the blessing. 58 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 4: When you honor God with your life, there is a 59 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 4: blessing He puts on you that gives you an advantage. 60 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 4: It causes you to rise up when circumstances are trying 61 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 4: to push you down. You will recover from an illness 62 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 4: when the expert said you wouldn't. You will accomplish dreams 63 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 4: that looked impossible. It wasn't just your talent, your skill determination. 64 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:33,679 Speaker 4: There is a force behind you fighting your battles, opening 65 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 4: doors you couldn't open, bringing the right people. Those weren't 66 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 4: just good breaks. That's the blessing on your life. The 67 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 4: blessing will cause you to prosper when others are struggling. 68 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 4: The blessing will bring promotion when you weren't next in line. 69 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 4: The blessing will cause people to be good to you 70 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 4: that don't even like you. The scripture says in Malachi, 71 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 4: when we give our tithes and offering, God will pour 72 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 4: out a blessing that we don't have room to receive. 73 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 4: It doesn't say blessings plural, it says blessing singular. When 74 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 4: you have the blessing, then all kinds of blessings will come. 75 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 4: You won't have room to receive all the good things 76 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 4: God has in store. And when you face difficulties, the 77 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 4: medical report doesn't look good. You don't see how you 78 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 4: could ever get out of debt, ever break the addiction. 79 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 4: Ordinary people would complain, Ordinary people would be worried. Here's 80 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 4: the key. You're not ordinary. You have the blessing. God's 81 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 4: face is smiling on you. He's going before you right now, 82 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,919 Speaker 4: making cooked places straight, moving the wrong people out of 83 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 4: the way, arranging things in your favor. When you know 84 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 4: you have the blessing, you don't go around upset because 85 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 4: people aren't treating you right, worried about your finances, frustrated 86 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 4: over a time. Child, you stay in peace, knowing that 87 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 4: it's just a matter of time before things change. You know, 88 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 4: God being for you is more than the world being 89 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 4: against you. And when you're attempted to be discouraged, think 90 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 4: it's never going to work out. Turn it around. Father, 91 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 4: Thank you for the blessing on my life. Thank you 92 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 4: that you're breathing in my direction. Thank you that you're 93 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 4: taking me where I could not go on my own. 94 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 4: This is what David did when he faced Goliath in 95 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 4: the natural. He didn't have a chance. Goliath was twice 96 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 4: his size, had all kinds of training and experience. He 97 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 4: was wearing a full set of armor. David didn't have 98 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 4: any of that. He could have been intimidated, stayed in 99 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 4: the shepherd's fields, complained, God, he's too big. But David 100 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:54,359 Speaker 4: understood this principle. He knew the blessing on his life 101 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 4: gave him an advantage. He went out with a slingshot 102 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 4: and a few stones and defeated Goliath What you have 103 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 4: may seem small compared to what you're up against, but 104 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 4: a slingshot with the blessing is more powerful than a 105 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:16,359 Speaker 4: tank without it. Your talent may seem small compared to 106 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 4: the dream God put in your heart, but that talent 107 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 4: with the blessing will take you further than you can imagine. Now, 108 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 4: don't discount yourself. Don't look at all the reasons why 109 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 4: you can't be successful, why you can't purchase a house, 110 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 4: why you can't break the addiction on your own. It 111 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 4: may not happen, but you're not on your own. There 112 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 4: is a blessing on your life, put there by the 113 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 4: God who spoke worlds into existence. This blessing is not natural, 114 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 4: it's supernatural. It will cause things to happen that you 115 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 4: couldn't make happen. The blessing will cause opportunity to find you. Good, 116 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 4: breaks will chase you down. Promotion, he vindication. You don't 117 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 4: have to go after them. The blessing will cause them 118 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 4: to come to you. One Sunday morning, when my father 119 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 4: was the pastor, I was in the TV production area 120 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 4: right before service. I ran downstairs to see my father 121 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 4: and put his microphone on on my way back up. 122 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 4: I was in a big hurry. As I came around 123 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 4: a corner, this man was coming up. He stopped me 124 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 4: and said, Joel, my cousin has a construction permit for 125 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 4: the last full power commercial television station in Houston. He 126 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 4: wants you to be a part of it. There were 127 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 4: hundreds of people in the lobby that day. If I 128 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 4: would have been ten seconds earlier, I would have missed him. 129 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 4: If he would have caught one more red light on 130 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 4: the way to church or pass, wouldn't have crossed. God 131 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 4: had us at the right place at the right time. 132 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 4: I wasn't looking for a television station, but a television 133 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 4: station was looking for me. Is that a coincidence, a 134 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 4: lucky break? No, that was the blessing on my life. 135 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 4: I can't take credit for it. All I was doing 136 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 4: was honoring God, being my best, and the opportunity found me. 137 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,679 Speaker 4: We put the station on the air several years later 138 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 4: sold it for a huge profit. Those funds were instrumental 139 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 4: in us renovating this place, the former Compact Center. God 140 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 4: has the right breaks, the right people lined up for you. 141 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 4: You don't have to live frustrated trying to make things happen. 142 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 4: Worry that it's not going to work out. God is 143 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 4: directing your steps. He's going to have you at the 144 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 4: right place at the right time, down to the split second. 145 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 4: You are not going to miss what belongs to you. 146 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 4: Opportunity is coming bigger than you've imagined. When we signed 147 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 4: a contract for the television station, I was so excited. 148 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 4: I never dreamed own a station. I couldn't fathom anything bigger. 149 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 4: I didn't realize that was just a step in what 150 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 4: God wanted to do. As great as I thought it was, 151 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 4: it wasn't even the main thing. That was just the 152 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 4: warm up act. Being up here owning the compact center 153 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 4: speaking to a lot of people. This is far beyond 154 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 4: what I ever dreamed. What am I saying? What you 155 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 4: think is the ultimate blessing God showing out in your life? 156 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 4: Can I tell you haven't seen anything yet that is 157 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 4: just a step in where God has taken you. There 158 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 4: are levels that you have not even fathomed, opportunities far 159 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 4: beyond what you think. You may have seen God's goodness 160 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 4: in the past. You can say, like me that God's 161 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 4: blessed you, but you haven't touched the surface of what 162 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 4: God has in store. I was in India. One time 163 00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 4: with my father, I met this young pastor that came 164 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 4: from a very poor family. They didn't have running water 165 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 4: or electricity. They lived out on this open field in 166 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 4: a little hut. The man next door was very wealthy. 167 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 4: He owned a huge farm, had thousands of cattle and 168 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 4: many crops. He sold milk and vegetables to people in 169 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 4: the village. But this man was very greedy in his 170 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 4: prices were so high that most of the poor people 171 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 4: couldn't afford anything. One day, about ten of his cows 172 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 4: got out and came over to the property where the 173 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 4: pastor and his family lived. The man heard about it 174 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 4: and had his workers come get the cows put them 175 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 4: back in the fence. The next day, ten more cows 176 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 4: got out came over to the pastor's property. This happened 177 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 4: again and again and again. The owner got so frustrated 178 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 4: he finally told the pastor to just keep the cows. 179 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 4: The pastor was so excited he started selling milk and 180 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 4: products to people in the village, but he sold them 181 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 4: for less than the other man. Before long, people were 182 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 4: lined up at his door. He was able to buy 183 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 4: more cows. His business got so large that that other 184 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 4: man came and said, I can't compete with you. Why 185 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 4: don't you take over my business? He purchased it for 186 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 4: a fraction of the value. Today, this young pastor has 187 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 4: a large business with several hundred employees. It all started 188 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 4: when those cows came to his property and wouldn't leave. 189 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 4: He couldn't have made that happen. That was the blessing 190 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 4: on his life. God controls the universe. He knows how 191 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:48,679 Speaker 4: to have the cows find you. The good breaks, the property, 192 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 4: the contracts, the businesses, they're going to come looking for you. Well, Joel, 193 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 4: this is kind of far out. We serve a far 194 00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 4: out God. His blessing on your life.

It's far out for me to 199 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 4: be up here in front of you having no formal training. 200 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 4: Get ready for some far out favor, far out blessings, 201 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 4: far out opportunity, far out promotion. God said, you won't 202 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:34,079 Speaker 4: have room to receive it. He's going to do things 203 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 4: so amazing in your life that you have to pass 204 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 4: it down to your children. You can't contain it. All 205 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 4: generational blessings are coming. Increase that goes to your children, 206 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 4: your grandchildren, your great grandchildren, businesses, contracts, real estate that 207 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 4: continue to bless people long after you're gone. Proverb says, 208 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 4: a good person leaves an inherits to their children's children. 209 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:06,079 Speaker 4: That's God's dream for you. Get rid of a barely 210 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 4: get by mentality. I'll be satisfied if I can just 211 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 4: pay my bills and make it through. That is not 212 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 4: your destiny. The blessing on your life is going to 213 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 4: cause you to lend and not hurry to have more 214 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 4: than enough. David said, my cup runs over. There are 215 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 4: some running over blessings in your future, blessings that you 216 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 4: cannot contain, increase that you can't use up in your lifetime. Well, Joel, 217 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 4: I haven't seen any of these far out blessings. Stay encouraged, 218 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 4: they're on the way. You wouldn't be hearing this if 219 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 4: God wasn't about to do something amazing. He's wanting us 220 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 4: to take the limits off of him enlarger vision. Quit 221 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 4: telling yourself all the reasons why it's not going to happen. 222 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 4: How you've had too many bad breaks. How your dream 223 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 4: looks impossible. It may be to you, but it's not 224 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 4: to our God. Start expecting his favor, Start believing for 225 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 4: new levels, Start talking like it's going to happen. Father. 226 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 4: Thank you that you're bringing me into overflow. Thank you 227 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 4: that generational blessings are coming my way. Thank you that 228 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 4: you're opening doors that no man can shut. We see 229 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 4: this blessing in the life of Joseph. As a teenager, 230 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 4: God gave him a dream that one day he would 231 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 4: lead a nation that people would bow down before him. 232 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 4: He knew something big was in his future, but his 233 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 4: brothers were jealous. They threw him into a pit. They 234 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 4: were going to leave him there to die, but they 235 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 4: saw a caravan of Ishmaelites coming. They sold him as 236 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 4: a slave. He ended up working for a man named 237 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 4: potterfar Potterphar was a high ranking military official in the 238 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 4: Egyptian government. Joseph could have been bitter God, I thought 239 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 4: the blessing was on my life. Why did this happen 240 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 4: to me? Instead, he kept being his best, treating people 241 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 4: with respect, doing more than required. The scripture says the 242 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 4: Lord was with Joseph and blessed him greatly as he 243 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 4: served in the home of his Egyptian master. Notice God 244 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 4: was with Joseph in the unfair situation when he was mistreated, 245 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 4: when he was betrayed, the blessing was still on his life. 246 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 4: Sometimes we think we're not blessed. We came down with 247 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 4: an illness, we lost our main client, a relationship didn't 248 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 4: work out. That didn't stop the blessing. People can't change 249 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 4: what God put on you. The favor didn't get canceled 250 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 4: out because of a bad break. The blessing is while 251 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 4: those enemies cannot defeat you. The blessing is why that 252 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 4: sickness can't take your life. The blessing is why that 253 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 4: setback is not the end. It is a setup for 254 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 4: what God is about to do. Don't get discouraged when 255 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 4: life doesn't go your way. The blessing is still on you. 256 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 4: Verse three says potterpher noticed Joseph and realized the Lord 257 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 4: was giving him success in everything he did. Verse four, 258 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 4: So Joseph naturally became the favorite of Potiphar. Joseph went 259 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 4: from being a slave, unnoticed, insignificant to be in the 260 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 4: favorite Potterphar was so impressed that he put Joseph in 261 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 4: charge of his whole house. That's the power of the blessing. 262 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 4: When people try to push you down, it will cause 263 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 4: you to rise up. When people ignore you, try to 264 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 4: discount you, it will cause you to be noticed. I'm 265 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 4: sure Potipher had other people working for him that had 266 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 4: more experience, but the Blessing on Joseph's life caused him 267 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 4: to stand out. People may not recognize you yet, your 268 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 4: boss doesn't give you. Cry at it. Relatives discount you 269 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 4: think you don't have much to offer. You may be 270 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:09,120 Speaker 4: overlooked now, but the time is coming where you're going 271 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 4: to be noticed. People are going to recognize your gifts, 272 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 4: your talent, your value. God's going to cause you to 273 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:20,879 Speaker 4: stand out. You're going to go from being unnoticed to 274 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 4: being in charge, from being not recognized to be in 275 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,880 Speaker 4: the favorite. How could this happen? The Blessing on your 276 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 4: Life Verse five says the day Joseph was put in charge, 277 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 4: God begin to bless Potter for Joseph's sake. You would 278 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 4: think that Joseph would be blessed because of potterphar this 279 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 4: prominent official. It was just the opposite. The Blessing on 280 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,919 Speaker 4: your life is so powerful It will not only cause 281 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 4: you to be promoted, you to be noticed, but people 282 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 4: around you will be blessed. Your company, your co workers, 283 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 4: your fore she'd be glad to have you because you're there. 284 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 4: They're going to see favor, They're going to see increase. 285 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:10,479 Speaker 4: They may not even realize the reason they're blessed is 286 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 4: because they're connected to you. Genesis thirty. Jacob had been 287 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 4: working for a man named Laban for seven years. Laban 288 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 4: promised him in return that he could marry his daughter Rachel. 289 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 4: Well after the seven years, Laban gave him his daughter 290 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:31,680 Speaker 4: Leah instead. He didn't keep his word. He said, Jacob, 291 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 4: if you'll work for me another seven years, then i'll 292 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 4: give you Rachel. Jacob could have been bitter, started a 293 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 4: big fight, left their angry, but he took the high 294 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 4: road and worked another seven years. He finally married Rachel 295 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 4: and was about to move back to his hometown with 296 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 4: his family. Verse twenty seven. Laban said, Jacob, please don't 297 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 4: leave me. I have learned the Lord has blessed me 298 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 4: because you are here. For years. He didn't treat Jacob right. 299 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:09,400 Speaker 4: It was unfair, but now he's begging him to stay. 300 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 4: He realizes he's blessed because of the favor on Jacob's life. 301 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 4: You may have people that don't really value who you are. 302 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 4: They haven't kept their word. Don't be offended. Be a Jacob. 303 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,640 Speaker 4: Keep doing the right thing. You don't have to convince 304 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 4: people to like you. Prove to them who you are. 305 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 4: They may discount you now, but one day, like Jacob, 306 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,439 Speaker 4: they'll be asking you to stay. They will realize the 307 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 4: reason they are blessed is because of you. Laban said 308 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 4: to Jacob, I'll pay you whatever you want if you 309 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 4: will stay. Jacob knew his time there was over. He 310 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:52,439 Speaker 4: left not only a very wealthy man, but he left 311 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,920 Speaker 4: with the respect and honor that he had not been 312 00:19:55,960 --> 00:20:00,919 Speaker 4: given for many years. God is your vindicator. He sees 313 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,360 Speaker 4: what's happening. You. Keep doing the right thing, and one 314 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 4: day God will make it up to you. In the 315 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 4: late nineteen fifties, my father was pastoring a large church, 316 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:16,160 Speaker 4: very successful. They had just built a beautiful new sanctuary. 317 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 4: He was on the state board for his denomination. His 318 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 4: future looked very bright, but he started teaching the people 319 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 4: about how God is good and how he still heals 320 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 4: and wants us to live a victorious life. Well, this 321 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 4: new message didn't go overwell. It didn't fit into their 322 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 4: denominational mold, and there was so much opposition, so much pressure, 323 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,919 Speaker 4: that he had to resign from that church. He and 324 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:47,199 Speaker 4: my mother went out and started Lakewood. For years, my 325 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 4: father was ignored by his peers. He was overlooked, unnoticed. 326 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 4: Colleagues that he used to go to lunch with, they 327 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,919 Speaker 4: just dismissed him, acted like he was second class, like 328 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 4: he wasn't up to Paul. My father never said anything 329 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 4: about this, but a new deep down that it bothered him. 330 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 4: Thirty five years later, that denomination was having their annual 331 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 4: meeting here in Houston. The main speaker set in front 332 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 4: of thousands of leaders. We need to stay more open. 333 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 4: Think where we would be if we still had John 334 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 4: Ostein with us After all those years, they finally showed 335 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 4: him respect and admiration. And no, you don't need people's approval, 336 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 4: you don't have to have their support. But God is 337 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 4: a god of justice. He sees what's happening. If you 338 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 4: will keep honoring him, there will be a day when 339 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,439 Speaker 4: those that have overlooked you, those that have discounted you, 340 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 4: they will see you in a new light and give 341 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 4: you the respect and honor that you deserve. When Joseph's 342 00:21:56,440 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 4: brothers threw him into the pit, they took his read them, 343 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 4: but they didn't take the blessing. When Potiphar's wife tried 344 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 4: to seduce Joseph, she ripped his coat off and lied 345 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 4: about and falsely accused him. She took his coat, but 346 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 4: she couldn't take his calling. Somebody may have hurt you, 347 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 4: they betrayed you, they left you out, but they didn't 348 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 4: stop your destiny. And men told me recently how his 349 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 4: company let him go after many years. Somebody was jealous 350 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 4: and spread all these rumors, and long story short, he 351 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 4: unfairly lost his position. I told him what I'm telling you. 352 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 4: They may have taken your job, but they didn't take 353 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 4: your blessing. People cannot stop what God put on you. You 354 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:48,920 Speaker 4: keep honoring God being your best, and the blessing will 355 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 4: always override what people have done. The scripture says what 356 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 4: God has blessed, no person can curse. The blessing on 357 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:03,719 Speaker 4: you is more powerful than any betrayal, than how you 358 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,959 Speaker 4: were raised, than people trying to discredit you. Quit focusing 359 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 4: on what you've lost, and start focusing on what you 360 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 4: have left. The blessing is still on your life. You 361 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 4: are blessed in the city and blessed in the country. 362 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 4: You are blessed when you go in and blessed when 363 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 4: you come out. That means you are blessed when things 364 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 4: are going your way and blessed when they're not going 365 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 4: your way. You are blessed when you're in the palace, 366 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,880 Speaker 4: and you're still blessed when you're in the pen. Here's 367 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 4: the key. The blessing did not come from people, so 368 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 4: it cannot be taken away by people. In Numbers, Chapter 369 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 4: twenty two, this king was trying to pay a prophet 370 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 4: to curse the Israelites three times. The prophet told the king, 371 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 4: no matter how much you pay, I cannot curse what 372 00:23:55,840 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 4: God has already blessed. When you understand this, I won't 373 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:04,639 Speaker 4: live upset because somebody's talking about you, frustrated because you 374 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,640 Speaker 4: had a bad break, offended because they left you out. 375 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 4: You know, every force that's trying to stop you is 376 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 4: powerless to change the blessing on your life. In the 377 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 4: fifteen hundreds, Queen Elizabeth the First was born. Her father 378 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 4: wanted a boy so badly that he cursed her at birth. 379 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 4: The Pope declared her illegitimate because her father had been divorced. 380 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 4: Her half sister falsely accused her and had her imprisoned 381 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 4: in the Tower of London. All these people came against 382 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 4: her from childhood. But people don't determine your destiny. What 383 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 4: they say about you cannot stop your purpose. And Elizabeth 384 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 4: had a rough start, but that didn't keep her from 385 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,919 Speaker 4: becoming who she was called to be. She went on 386 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 4: to serve as the queen for forty five years. She 387 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,479 Speaker 4: reformed the justice system to make sure people receive a 388 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 4: fair trial. Perhaps people have tried to hold you back. 389 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 4: Family hasn't supported you. You could be discouraged settle where 390 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:13,199 Speaker 4: you are, But like her, the blessing on your life 391 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 4: is going to override what's trying to stop you. God 392 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 4: said in Psalms, touch not my anointed, You are His anointed. 393 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 4: When people come against you, they're not just messing with you, 394 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 4: They're messing with the God who put the blessing on you. 395 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 4: The good news is you don't have to fight those battles. 396 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 4: You have a defender. Don't try to do it in 397 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 4: your own strength. Stand still and you will see the 398 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 4: deliverance of the Lord. I have never seen anyone who's 399 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:53,160 Speaker 4: tried to stop me, discredit me, keep me from my purpose, 400 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 4: continue to succeed. It may have been a year, five years, 401 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 4: ten years, but eventually they out and I'm still standing. 402 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 4: It's because the blessing is more powerful than the curse. 403 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 4: Whatever's coming against you, whatever people are trying to stop you, 404 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:17,160 Speaker 4: they may seem bigger, more powerful. The sickness, the addiction, 405 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 4: it can be intimidating. Stay in peace. The blessing God 406 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 4: put on you is more powerful than what's trying to 407 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 4: stop you. In the scripture, King Saul was trying to 408 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 4: kill David. David hadn't done anything wrong. In fact, David 409 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,679 Speaker 4: was being good to Saul, but Saul was jealous chased 410 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 4: David through the desert, making his life miserable. Several times 411 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 4: David had the opportunity to take Saul's life. He snuck 412 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 4: up on him while he was sleeping. He could have 413 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 4: ended the conflict, defended himself. Nobody would have blamed him. 414 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 4: David wouldn't do it. He knew Saul had been anointed 415 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 4: by God to be the king, and even though David 416 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 4: was anointed to replace him, he still wouldn't harm soul. 417 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:09,200 Speaker 4: He understood. You don't touch God's anointed. You don't come 418 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 4: against what God has blessed. When you face opposition, people 419 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 4: come against you, you don't have to get upset try 420 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 4: to pay them back. You can stay in peace knowing 421 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 4: that when they come against you, they are touching God's anointed. 422 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 4: That means it's not your battle. The battle is the Lord's. 423 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 4: He's your defender, he's your vindicator. And you're like Joseph 424 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 4: at times will get thrown into a pit. Somebody may 425 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:41,200 Speaker 4: betray you, but they cannot keep the blessing down. They 426 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 4: meant it for harm. God's going to turn it for good. 427 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:48,640 Speaker 4: Keep your shoulders back. Live with confidence. You have an advantage. 428 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:52,639 Speaker 4: The blessing is on your life. Now believe and declare. 429 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 4: This blessing is going to take you further than you've imagined. 430 00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 4: You're about to see far out opportunity, far out promotion, 431 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 4: far out favor, the fullness of your destiny in Jesus's name, 432 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 4: And if you receive it, can you say amen? Today 433 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 4: I'd like to give you an opportunity to make Jesus 434 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,159 Speaker 4: the lord of your life. Would you pray with me? 435 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 4: Just say, Lord Jesus, I repent of my sins, Come 436 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 4: into my heart. I make you my Lord and savior. 437 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 4: If you prayed that simple prayer, we believe you got 438 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:34,200 Speaker 4: born again.
