And 33 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 3: I like to start with something funny and I heard 34 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 3: about this elderly woman. She came to church one Sunday 35 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 3: morning and a friendly usher met her at the back 36 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 3: and said, ma'am, where would you like to sit? She said, 37 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 3: I'd like to sit on the very front row. He said, oh, no, ma'am, 38 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 3: you don't want to do that. Our pastor is very boring. 39 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 3: He'll put you to sleep. Let me seet you somewhere else. 40 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 3: She looked appalled. She says, sir, do you know who 41 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 3: I am? He said no, ma'am she said, I am 42 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 3: the pastor's mother. He hung his head in embarrassment and 43 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 3: finally looked up and said, ma'am, do you know who 44 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 3: I am? She said no. He said, Thank God. Hold 45 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 3: up your Bible. Say it like you mean it. This 46 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,119 Speaker 3: is my Bible. I am what it says I am. 47 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 3: I have what it says I have. I can do 48 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 3: what it says I can do. Today I will be 49 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 3: taught the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind 50 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 3: is alert, my heart is recepted. I will never be 51 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 3: the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want 52 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 3: to talk to you today about trusting God's timing in life. 53 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 3: We're always waiting for something, waiting for a dream to 54 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 3: come to pass, waiting to meet the right person, waiting 55 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 3: for a problem to turn around, and when it's not 56 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 3: happening as fast as we would like, it's easy to 57 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 3: get frustrated. But you have to realize the moment you prayed, 58 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 3: God established a set time to bring the promise to pass. 59 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,239 Speaker 3: God has a set time for you to meet the 60 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 3: right person. There is a set time for the problem 61 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 3: to turn around, a set time for your healing, your promotion, 62 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 3: your breakthrough. It may be tomorrow, or next week or 63 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 3: five years from now. But when you understand that time 64 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 3: has already been set, it takes all the pressure off. 65 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 3: You won't live worried wondering when this is ever going 66 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 3: to happen. You'll relax and enjoy your life knowing that 67 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 3: the promise has already been scheduled by the creator of 68 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 3: the universe. And some of you have been praying about 69 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,839 Speaker 3: a situation for a long time and you don't see 70 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 3: anything happening, and you could easily be discouraged. But what 71 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 3: if God were to pull back the curtain and allow 72 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 3: you to see into the future, and you knew that 73 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 3: on February twelfth, at two thirty three in the afternoon, 74 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 3: you were going to meet the person of your dreams. 75 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 3: You wouldn't be discouraged. You'd be excited. You start working out, 76 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 3: you go buy some new clothes. Why you know the 77 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 3: big day is coming. Here's where it takes faith. God 78 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 3: promises that there are set times in our future, but 79 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 3: he doesn't tell us when they will be. Your set time. 80 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,599 Speaker 3: Maybe tomorrow morning at nine forty seven you'll get the 81 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 3: phone call you've been waiting for. You're set time. Maybe 82 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,039 Speaker 3: October twenty fifth, two years from now, you'll get a 83 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,039 Speaker 3: good break and that will thrust you to a new level. 84 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 3: My question is, do you trust God enough to believe 85 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 3: that your set times are coming. Are you willing to 86 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 3: wait with a good attitude knowing that they're on their way, 87 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,159 Speaker 3: or will you get discouraged and think, I don't know, Joel, 88 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 3: I've been trying to break this addiction since high school. 89 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 3: Now you've got to get a new perspective. God has 90 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 3: a set time for you to break that addiction. It's 91 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 3: already in your future. Don't let the negative thoughts talk 92 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 3: you out of it. There is a set time for 93 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 3: you to be completely well, a set time for God 94 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 3: to turn the legal situation around. Now, quit worrying about it. 95 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 3: Quit living stressed out. What if I don't meet the 96 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 3: right person, what if I don't ever get well? No, 97 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 3: it says in Hebrews, those who have believed enter in 98 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 3: to the rest of God. The way you know you're 99 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 3: really believing is you have a rest. You're at peace, 100 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 3: you know the answers on the way, You know the 101 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,840 Speaker 3: right people, the right opportunities have already been set in 102 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 3: your future. On January eighth, nineteen eighty six, at four 103 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 3: o'clock in the afternoon, I walked into a jewelry store 104 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 3: to buy battery for my watch. Outwalked the most beautiful 105 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 3: girl I'd ever seen. It was Victoria. I didn't tell her, 106 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 3: but I thought, this is my set time. It took 107 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 3: me a year to convince her that it was her 108 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 3: set time. Today, on December third, two thousand and three, 109 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 3: at one thirty in the afternoon, when Mayor Brown handed 110 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 3: us the keys to the Compact Center, that was not 111 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 3: an ordinary time. That was a set time ordained by 112 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 3: the most high God. Friends, there are set times in 113 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 3: your future. You prayed, believe, stood in faith. Let me 114 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 3: assure you you're going to come in to set times 115 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 3: of favor, a set time where a problem suddenly turns around, 116 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 3: a set time where you meet the right person, a 117 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 3: set time where a good break thrust you years ahead. 118 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 3: That's what Habakuk said. The vision is for an appointed time. 119 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 3: It may seem slow in coming, but wait patiently for 120 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 3: it will surely come. Noice not may become not a hope. 121 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 3: So no God has already set the date. The appointed 122 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 3: time has already been put on your calendar. One translation 123 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 3: says it won't be one second late. Sometimes we think, well, 124 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 3: everybody's getting ahead of me. My friends are all married 125 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 3: and I'm still single. My coworkers are being promoted, but 126 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 3: I'm still stuck here. Now, don't get discouraged. Your set 127 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 3: time is coming. It is not going to be one 128 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 3: second late. The good news is God knows how to 129 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:35,239 Speaker 3: make up for what seems like lost time. God doesn't 130 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 3: always take us logically from A to B to C. 131 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 3: Sometimes God will take you from A to B to 132 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 3: C and then thrust you all the way down to 133 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 3: stuv What happened. You hit a set time that pushed 134 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 3: you fifty years ahead. Now, quit worrying about who's getting 135 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 3: ahead of you and just run your race. Be the 136 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 3: best that you can be. Keep honoring God with your life, 137 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 3: Keep treating people right, and God will get you to 138 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 3: where you're supposed to be. That promotion, that healing, that breakthrough, 139 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 3: that right person, They won't be one second late. Our 140 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 3: God is not a random god. He's a precise God. 141 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 3: He has lined up solutions for you down to the 142 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 3: very second. I know a young lady that was believing 143 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 3: to meet the right man, and she was in her 144 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 3: early thirties and never really had a serious relationship with anyone, 145 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 3: and she was starting to wonder if it was going 146 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 3: to happen. One day, she was driving home from work 147 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 3: and she had a flat tire and pulled over on 148 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 3: the side of the freeway. In a few seconds, another 149 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 3: car pulled over outstepped. This young man, as handsome as 150 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,079 Speaker 3: can be, went up to her window and said, can 151 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 3: I help you. She took one look at him and said, 152 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 3: I think you can. He not only changed her tire, 153 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 3: but he invited her out to dinner. Long story short, 154 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 3: they ended up falling in love. A year and a 155 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 3: half later, they got married. Today they're as happy as 156 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,319 Speaker 3: can be. I see them at Lakewood all the time. 157 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 3: That wasn't a coincidence. It wasn't a lucky break. That 158 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 3: was a set time ordained by the creator of the universe. 159 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 3: Think about how precise God's timing is. The tire had 160 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 3: to go flat at just the right time an hour later, 161 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 3: and it wouldn't have happened. There had to be just 162 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 3: the right amount of traffic. Too many cars he had 163 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 3: been late, too few cars he'd have been early. He 164 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 3: had to leave his work at just the right time. 165 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 3: One extra fifteen minute phone call, and that would have 166 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 3: never worked out. The timing was down to the split 167 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 3: second for it to all fall into place. What am 168 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 3: I saying? You can trust God's timing. God has it 169 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 3: all figured out. What you're praying about, what you're believing for. 170 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 3: It's not going to be one second late. If it 171 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 3: hasn't happened yet. Does it mean something's wrong. Does it 172 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 3: mean God's mad at you? Does it mean it's never 173 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 3: gonna work out? God has already established the time down 174 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 3: to the split second. You don't have to worry, You 175 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 3: don't have to live frustrated, stay in peace, enter into 176 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 3: this rest. God has you in the palm of his hand. 177 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 3: Your steps are being directed by the creator of the universe, 178 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 3: not randomly, not vaguely, No, down to the millisecond, down 179 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 3: to the most finite, small detail. When you understand this, 180 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 3: it takes all the pressure off. You won't go around 181 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 3: wondering when something's gonna happen. God, When are you gonna 182 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 3: change my husband? God, when are you gonna answer my prayer? No, 183 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 3: when you know the time has been set, you'll have 184 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 3: a peace. Whether it's twenty minutes or twenty years. You 185 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 3: know what God promised he will bring to pass. Here's 186 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 3: a great prayer should pray every day, God, give me 187 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 3: the grace to accept your timing. So I'd love to 188 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 3: tell you that if you stay in faith, if you believe, 189 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 3: then God will always answer your prayer within twenty four 190 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 3: hours or at least within the first week. But we 191 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 3: know that's not reality. God promises he will be true 192 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 3: to his word, but he never puts a time frame 193 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 3: on it. Be a lot easier if God told us 194 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 3: when we were going to get well, when we would 195 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,959 Speaker 3: meet the right person, when our child would straighten up. 196 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,080 Speaker 3: But the truth is that wouldn't take any faith. It 197 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 3: takes faith to say God, I don't know when you're 198 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 3: going to do it, but God, I trust you enough 199 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 3: to believe that you will do it, that the answer 200 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 3: is already in my future. The scripture says the vision 201 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 3: is for an appointed time. The appointed time is the 202 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 3: best time. God can see the big picture for our lives. 203 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 3: He knows what's up ahead, He knows what we're going 204 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 3: to need, who we're gonna need when they need to 205 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 3: show up. If God did everything we ask on our timetable, 206 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 3: it would limit us because sometimes what we're asking for 207 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,839 Speaker 3: is too small. Sometimes the person we think we can't 208 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,959 Speaker 3: live without. God knows in ten years they're not going 209 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 3: to be good for us, so he's closing the door 210 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 3: right now. Sometimes the promotion we want so badly, if 211 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 3: God gave it to us right now, he knows that 212 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 3: would keep us from a much bigger promotion that he 213 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 3: has three years down the road. God has the advantage 214 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 3: of seeing it all. The longer I live, the more 215 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 3: I trust him. How many times have I looked back 216 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 3: and said, God, thank you for not answering that prayer. God, 217 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 3: thank you for not letting that person end of my life. 218 00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 3: God knows what he's doing and what your prayer about 219 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,679 Speaker 3: may be good, may be a part of your destiny, 220 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 3: but it's not the appointed time. If there's a right time, 221 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 3: that means there's a wrong time, if it hasn't happened yet. 222 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 3: Instead of being frustrated worried, God, when is my business 223 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 3: going to grow? God, I'm so lonely. When am I 224 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 3: going to meet somebody? No, have a new approach. God, 225 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 3: you know what's best for me. You can see the 226 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 3: big picture. I'm not going to live frustrated God. I 227 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 3: trust your timing. See, we're in a society that wants 228 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 3: everything right now. We're being programmed for immediacy. Don't make 229 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 3: me wait. But the scripture says it's through faith and 230 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 3: patience that we inherit the promises. It's easy to have faith. God. 231 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 3: I believe I'm going to accomplish my dreams. God, I 232 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 3: believe I'm going to overcome this obstacle. We've got the 233 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 3: faith part down. Let's make sure we get the patience 234 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 3: part down. God. I not only believe for big things, 235 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 3: but I trust your timing. God. I'm not gonna get 236 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 3: discouraged if it doesn't happen immediately. I'm not going to 237 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 3: give up because it's taken a week, a month, or 238 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 3: five years. I know the set time is already in 239 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 3: my future. So I'm gonna wait with faith and patience 240 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 3: because I know that it's on the way. When Victoria 241 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 3: was pregnant with our first son, Jonathan, the first few 242 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 3: months were very exciting, not a problem at all. But 243 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 3: about six months in, Victoria started getting uncomfortable. Her feet 244 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 3: started swelling. By the seventh month, her back was hurting, 245 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 3: she couldn't sleep good at night. By the eighth month, 246 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 3: she was saying, God, I want to have this baby 247 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 3: right now. I am tired of waiting. But we know 248 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 3: God has an appointed time. The child is not ready, 249 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 3: still growing, developing. If God let her have the baby early, 250 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 3: the child may not be healthy. Sometimes we pray, God, 251 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 3: give me this promise right now. God, I'm uncomfortable. These 252 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 3: people aren't treating me right. God. Business is slow. What 253 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 3: we can't see is that something is not ready. Maybe 254 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 3: it's another person that's going to be involved. God's still 255 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 3: working on them. Maybe it's another situation that's going to 256 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 3: be a part of your destiny it's not in place yet. 257 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 3: Or maybe God's doing a work in you, developing your character, 258 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 3: growing you stronger in that process. It's interesting. The scripture 259 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 3: says God didn't take the children of Israel the shortest 260 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 3: route to the Promised Land because he knew they were 261 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 3: not prepared for war. God could see the big picture. 262 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 3: He knew if he took them the shortest way, their 263 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 3: enemies would be too powerful and they would be defeated. 264 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 3: So on purpose, God took them a longer route to 265 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 3: protect them, to strengthen them so that they could fulfill 266 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 3: their destiny. If something is not happening on your timetable, 267 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 3: remind yourself. God knows what he's doing. He has my 268 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 3: best interest at heart. I wouldn't be having this delay 269 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 3: unless God had a very good reason for it. And 270 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 3: while you're waiting, don't make the mistake of trying to 271 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 3: figure everything out. God, I've been praying for my child 272 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 3: for three years. Why won't he change. No, if you're 273 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 3: constantly trying to figure things out, that's only going to 274 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 3: frustrate you. Turn it over to God. Say, like David, God, 275 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 3: my times are in your hands. I'm not gonna worry 276 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 3: about why something hasn't happened, or worry about why it's 277 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 3: taken so long. God, I trust you. I know at 278 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 3: the set times everything you promise me will come to pass. 279 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 3: Sometimes when we get in a hurry, we make the 280 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 3: mistake of taking matters into our own hands and we 281 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 3: try to fool things to happen. Many times we miss 282 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 3: God's best. This is what happened with Abraham and Sarah. 283 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:08,919 Speaker 3: God gave them the promise that they were going to 284 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 3: have a baby, but year after year went byden nothing 285 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 3: was happening, so they decided to try to help God out. 286 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 3: Sarah came up with a plan. She told Abraham to 287 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 3: sleep with one of her maids. That way they could 288 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 3: have that baby. Abraham, instead of being patient waiting for 289 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 3: God's timing, he went along with the plan, and sure 290 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 3: enough they had a baby boy. They were very excited. 291 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:39,639 Speaker 3: They named him Ishmael. They said, look, this is the 292 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 3: child God promised us. But God said, Abraham, Sarah, that 293 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,399 Speaker 3: is not the child I promised you. That's something that 294 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 3: you did on your own. Do you know? Ishmael was 295 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 3: a struggle to raise. They were constantly having problems, conflict. 296 00:17:56,200 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 3: There was no grace for him. But understand what God orders, 297 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 3: God will pay for what God gives birth to. God 298 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 3: will always give you the grace to take care of it. 299 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 3: But when we birth things in our own strength, out 300 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 3: of God's timing, then God's not obligated. Fourteen years later, 301 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 3: at the set time, Sarah gave birth to Isaac, the 302 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 3: child that God promised them. Like Sarah, there will be 303 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 3: times in life where it's not happening as fast as 304 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,639 Speaker 3: you would like. You'll be tempted to try to force 305 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:34,880 Speaker 3: things to happen. Maybe in a relationship. The person you're 306 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 3: thinking about dating, you know down deep they're not good 307 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 3: for you. They don't treat you with respect, but you're 308 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 3: afraid that you might not meet anyone else. Now, if 309 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 3: you'll let go of ishmael, Isaac will show up. The 310 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:53,440 Speaker 3: one God promise you is in your future. The time 311 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 3: has already been set. Now be patient and trust God 312 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 3: to do it his way. I learned a long time ago. 313 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 3: God doesn't need my help. He's got it all figured out. 314 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 3: He knows the end from the beginning. All we have 315 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 3: to do is trust him. You don't have to try 316 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,120 Speaker 3: to force doors to open. You don't have to try 317 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:18,679 Speaker 3: to make people like you, manipulate your way into a friendship, 318 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 3: into a position. No, you just keep honoring God with 319 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 3: your life, stay in peace, trust his timing, and God 320 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 3: will open doors that no man can shut. God will 321 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 3: bring amazing people across your path. God will defeat your 322 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 3: enemies and get you to where you're supposed to be. Now, 323 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:42,120 Speaker 3: don't go around birthing ishmaels. When God wants to give 324 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 3: you isaacs. That's what it says in Psalms. When you 325 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 3: delight yourself and the Lord God will give you the 326 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 3: desires of your heart. There's a big difference between God 327 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 3: giving you something and you having to work to make 328 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:59,360 Speaker 3: it happen when we try to force things. We don't 329 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 3: wait for Godd's timing. It's a constant struggle, it's a burden. 330 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 3: We can't seem to ever get it off the ground. 331 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 3: But if you'll let God do it his way, in 332 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 3: his timing, there'll be a supernatural grace. There'll be at ease. Yes, 333 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 3: you'll have opposition, but you'll feel a strength, a peace, 334 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 3: God's favor, supernaturally pushing you forward. Remember a couple of 335 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 3: years after my father died, I really wanted to write 336 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 3: a book, had a strong desire, but I didn't know 337 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:36,639 Speaker 3: any publishers or anything about the book industry. And several 338 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 3: times I started to call a friend that did know 339 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 3: a publisher. Didn't feel good about it. I just knew 340 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 3: it wasn't right. Over the next couple of years, I 341 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:49,400 Speaker 3: was approached by different publishers and even offered a contract. 342 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,919 Speaker 3: On the surface, it looked good. They were fine people. 343 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 3: But down here I could hear a still small voice 344 00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:00,400 Speaker 3: telling me, Joel, be patient, this is not the right one. 345 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:05,159 Speaker 3: Trust my timing. Something better is coming. I put it 346 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 3: on hold. Month after month. I didn't worry about it. 347 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 3: I wasn't frustrated, My attitude was, God, my times are 348 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,479 Speaker 3: in your hands. When you want me to write a book, 349 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 3: I know you will open up the doors. See, you 350 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 3: can do the right thing at the wrong time and 351 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 3: miss God's best timing is everything. Be patient and let 352 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 3: God open the doors. Yes, you may have to knock, 353 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,719 Speaker 3: you'll have to put forth the effort. I'm a believer 354 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 3: in being aggressive and pursuing dreams. But you don't have 355 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 3: to force doors to open. You don't have to try 356 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 3: to make people to like you. You don't have to 357 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:47,879 Speaker 3: talk yourself into it. If you'll be patient and wait 358 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 3: for God's timing, he will give you the desires of 359 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 3: your heart. One day, through a series of unusual events, 360 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 3: I met this publisher. I knew they were the right people. 361 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 3: I felt good about it. Everything fell into place, and 362 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 3: that book, Your Best Life Now went on to become 363 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,919 Speaker 3: a huge success, published in over forty languages. That's what 364 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:13,679 Speaker 3: happens when you wait for God's timing. You won't have 365 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:17,160 Speaker 3: to settle for Ishmael. God will give you Isaac's. He'll 366 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 3: give you what he promised. This principle is especially important 367 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 3: when we're facing challenges. If you get a negative medical report, 368 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 3: you lost your biggest client. At the office or at work, 369 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 3: somebody's talking behind your back, trying to make you look bad. 370 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 3: It's easy to get all wrought up and think I 371 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 3: got to get in there and straighten things out. I'm 372 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,400 Speaker 3: gonna fix that person. I got to get a second job. 373 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 3: I'll never make it without that client. So often we 374 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 3: think we have to do it only in our own strength. 375 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 3: This is when many people make quick decisions that end 376 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:56,919 Speaker 3: up only making matters worse. The scripture says, be still 377 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 3: and know that I am God. Overwhelmed and you're tempted 378 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 3: to take everything into your own hands, you have to 379 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:09,919 Speaker 3: make yourself be still. The battle is not yours. The 380 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 3: battle is the Lord's. But as long as you're fighting it, 381 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 3: trying to make it happen your way, trying to pay 382 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:20,879 Speaker 3: somebody back, upset, worried, then God's going to step back 383 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 3: and let you do it on your own. But when 384 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 3: you take it out of your hands and say God, 385 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 3: I trust you, I know you've already set the time 386 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 3: to bring me out. You've already set the time to 387 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 3: vindicate me, You've set the time to bring healing. So 388 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 3: I'm going to be still and know that you are God, 389 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,919 Speaker 3: this is what the Israelites did. They were surrounded by 390 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:49,199 Speaker 3: a huge army, greatly outnumbered. They were so worried, so 391 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:53,199 Speaker 3: stressed out. They were getting their equipment on, trying to 392 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,880 Speaker 3: come up with some type of strategy to fight off 393 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 3: the enemy. Just before they went to battle, they decided 394 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 3: to pray. God said to them, stand still, and you 395 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 3: will see the deliverance of the Lord. For the Lord 396 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 3: will fight for you. If you remain at rest, notice 397 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 3: the condition. God will turn it around. God will restore you. 398 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 3: God will vindicate you. If you will be still and 399 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 3: remain at rest. In other words, if you will wait 400 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 3: for the set time, if you'll be patient and not 401 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 3: give birth to ishmaels, then God has Isaac's in your future. 402 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 3: And some of you today are facing a big challenge. 403 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 3: You can't sleep well at night, you're upset, you're frustrated. 404 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 3: God is saying to you what he said to them. 405 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 3: Be still, I've got it all figured out. I control 406 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 3: the whole universe. I've already set the time to deliver you. 407 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 3: I've already set the time to not only bring you out, 408 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 3: but to bring you out better off than you were before. 409 00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 3: Now do your part and rest trust God's timing. God 410 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 3: knows what he's doing. We may not always understand why 411 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 3: something is taken so long, but sometimes God will delay 412 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 3: an answer on purpose, simply so he can show his 413 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 3: power in a greater way. When Pharaoh wouldn't let the 414 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 3: Israelites go, God had Moses tell him that if Pharaoh 415 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:25,400 Speaker 3: didn't change his mind, God was going to send plague 416 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 3: after plague on Pharaoh and his people. The scripture says 417 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:35,159 Speaker 3: that God caused Phaarah to harden his heart, not the enemy. 418 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 3: God caused him to be stubborn and not give in. 419 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:42,439 Speaker 3: Moses said, Pharaoh, if you don't let us go, God's 420 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:44,680 Speaker 3: going to send locusts that are going to need all 421 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,399 Speaker 3: your crops and destroy the food supply. Pharaoh said, I 422 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 3: don't care let him do it. I'm not changing my mind. 423 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 3: One bad plague after another, and he wouldn't give in. 424 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 3: Why God wanted to show his power in a greater 425 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 3: way When all those plagues were harming Pharaoh and his people, 426 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 3: The Israelites living in that same area, not one plague 427 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:11,879 Speaker 3: affected them. Your situation may be taken longer than you thought. 428 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 3: Maybe it's something more difficult than you've ever experienced. That 429 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,120 Speaker 3: doesn't mean that the enemy's getting the best of you. 430 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 3: Doesn't mean that God went on vacation and is not 431 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:26,879 Speaker 3: concerned anymore. No, just life with Pharaoh. God has not 432 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,199 Speaker 3: turned it around yet because he wants to show his 433 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 3: favor in your life in an amazing way. God is 434 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 3: going to show his strength, his healing, his goodness, his 435 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:41,680 Speaker 3: power like you've never seen before. You, guys, will get 436 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 3: ready when God brings you out. Everybody around you is 437 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,199 Speaker 3: going to have no doubt. The God you serve is 438 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 3: an awesome God. Now my challenge. Trust God's timing. Stand 439 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 3: still and you'll see God deliver you. When you remain 440 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 3: rest almighty, God will fight your battles. Friends, there are 441 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:07,880 Speaker 3: set times in your future. Now quit worrying about when 442 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 3: it's going to happen. God can see the big picture. 443 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:15,679 Speaker 3: He knows what's best for you. Dare to say, like David, God, 444 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 3: my times are in your hand. When you do this, 445 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 3: it takes all the pressure off. You don't have to 446 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 3: struggle try to force things to happen. You know God 447 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 3: has it all figured out, so you can relax and 448 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 3: enjoy your life while you're waiting for the promises to 449 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,479 Speaker 3: come to pass. If you will enter into this rest 450 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 3: trusting God's timing. You won't give birth to ishmaels, You'll 451 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 3: give birth to Isaac's because you have faith and patience. 452 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 3: I believe in declare. You're going to come in to 453 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 3: set times of favor, set times of healing, set times 454 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,679 Speaker 3: of promotion, set times of breakthrough.
