Speaker 6: right at home. But thanks so much for tuning in,

45
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 6: and thank you again for coming out. I like to

46
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 6: start with something funny. I heard about this man that

47
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 6: was walking on the beach and God said, son, you've

48
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 6: been so faithful, I'm going to grant you one special wish.

49
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 5: He was so excited.

50
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 6: He said, God, I've always wanted to go to Hawaii,

51
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 6: but I'm afraid to fly. So my wish is that

52
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 6: you would build me a bridge across the ocean. God said, son,

53
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:37,079
Speaker 6: that's totally impossible. Think of the logistics of that. Now

54
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 6: take some time and wish again. He said, okay, God,

55
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 6: I've been divorced four times. All my ex wives say

56
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 6: I am so insensitive. My wish is that I would

57
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 6: be able to understand a woman. I want to know

58
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 6: why she thinks like she thinks, and why she feels

59
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 6: like she feels.

60
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 5: There was a long pause.

61
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 6: God said, do you want two lanes or four lanes

62
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 6: on that bridge? And all the men said, amen, say

63
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 6: it like you mean it. This is my Bible. I

64
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 6: am what it says I am. I have what it

65
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,640
Speaker 6: says I have. I can do what it says I

66
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 6: can do. Today I will be taught the word of God.

67
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 6: I boldly confess my mind is alert, my heart is receptive.

68
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 6: I will never be the same. In Jesus' name, God,

69
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 6: bless you. I want to talk to you today about

70
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 6: be positive or be quiet. Every one of us has

71
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 6: promises that we're standing on things that we're believing for.

72
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 6: Maybe it's to get out of debt, or to be

73
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 6: healthy again, to meet the right person, to start our

74
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 6: own business. We know God has spoken to us, but

75
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 6: we don't see any sign of it happening. Nothing is changing.

76
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 6: It looks just like it did six months ago. The

77
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 6: mistake we make too often is we start to talk

78
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 6: ourselves out of it.

79
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,080
Speaker 5: I don't think I'm gonna get out of day.

80
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 6: Business is too slow, or I could never accomplish my dreams.

81
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 6: I'm too old, Joel, I miss my opportunity. We don't

82
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 6: realize our words are what's keeping the promise from coming

83
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 6: to pass.

84
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 5: You cannot talk defeat and expect to have victory.

85
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 6: The moment you speak something out, you are giving life

86
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 6: to what you're saying, either good or bad. That's what

87
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:30,039
Speaker 6: allows it to become a reality. Negative thoughts come to

88
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 6: every person. You can't stop the thoughts from coming. The

89
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 6: key is don't verbalize the negative. You may think it,

90
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 6: but don't speak it out. If you're not going to

91
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 6: say anything good about your health, your finances, your children,

92
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,359
Speaker 6: your future, do yourself a favor. Zip it up, don't

93
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 6: say anything at all, be positive or be quiet proverb success.

94
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 6: We are snared by the words of our mouth. Do

95
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 6: you know you can talk yourself out of your healing?

96
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:07,479
Speaker 6: You can talk yourself out of a promotion. Negative words

97
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 6: can keep you from your God given destiny. This is

98
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 6: what almost happened to a man in the Scripture named Jeremiah.

99
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 6: God gave him a great promise that he would become

100
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 6: a prophet to the nations. But when he heard this,

101
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:26,359
Speaker 6: he was very young and unsure of himself. He said, God,

102
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 6: I can't do that. I can't speak to the nations.

103
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 6: I'm too young. I wouldn't know what to say. God said, Jeremiah,

104
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 6: say not that you are too young. The first thing

105
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 6: God did was stopped his negative words. Why did God

106
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 6: do that? God knew if he went around saying I'm

107
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 6: not qualified, I can't do this, I don't have what

108
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 6: it takes, he would become exactly what he was saying.

109
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 6: So God said, in effect, Jeremiah, zip it up.

110
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 5: You may think it, but don't speak it out.

111
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 6: It goes on to tell how Jeremiah changed what he

112
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 6: was saying and he became a prophet to the nations.

113
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 5: The promise came to pass in the same way.

114
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 6: God has called every one of us to do something great.

115
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 6: He's put dreams, desires on the inside. But it's easy

116
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,679
Speaker 6: to say, like Jeremiah can't do that. I'm too young,

117
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 6: I'm too old, I've made too many mistakes. I don't

118
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 6: have the education, I don't have the experience. We can

119
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,359
Speaker 6: all make excuses, but God is saying to us what

120
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 6: he said to Jeremiah. Stop saying that. Don't curse your future.

121
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 6: Those negative words can keep you from God's best And

122
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 6: sometimes the reason a promise is being delayed is because

123
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,840
Speaker 6: of what we're saying. Imagine your answer is on the way.

124
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:54,719
Speaker 6: God has already dispatched the angel with your healing, your promotion,

125
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 6: your vindication. But right before it gets here, God says

126
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 6: to the angel, don't go any further, stay right where

127
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 6: you are. The angel says, why, God, this is what

128
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 6: you promise, It's in your word. God says, no, listen

129
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,360
Speaker 6: to what they're saying. They're talking about how it's not

130
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 6: going to happen, how the problem's too big, how it's

131
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 6: been too long, how they'll never meet the right person.

132
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:24,679
Speaker 6: Negative words stop God's promises. Now, I wonder how many

133
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 6: times we're just a couple of months away from seeing

134
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 6: the answer, a couple of months from meeting the right person.

135
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 6: You've been praying for years that God would bring somebody

136
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 6: great into your life, but right before they show up,

137
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 6: you let your.

138
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 5: Guard down to Tart's saying, Ah, it's not going to happen.

139
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 6: I'm too old. Nobody's interested in me. God has to

140
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 6: say to the angel, don't go any further. The good

141
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 6: news is that promise is still in your future. God

142
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 6: didn't cancel it because we get negative. He still has

143
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 6: the right person for you. And if you'll zip up

144
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 6: the doubt and switch over into faith at the right time,

145
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 6: they will show up. God will release what negative words

146
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 6: have delayed. God still has your healing, your promotion, your restoration.

147
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 6: Now do your part. Quit talking about how it's not

148
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 6: going to happen.

149
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 5: You may not see away, but God still has a way.

150
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 6: It may look impossible, but God can do the impossible.

151
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 6: Just because you don't see anything happening doesn't mean God.

152
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 5: Is not working right now.

153
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 6: Behind the scenes, God is arranging things in your favor.

154
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 6: He's lining up the right people. He's moving the wrong

155
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 6: people out of the way. He's positioning you exactly where

156
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 6: he wants you to be. Now, don't delay the promise

157
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 6: by speaking negative words. Our son, Jonathan, is seventeen years

158
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:57,680
Speaker 6: old and we're in the process of applying to different colleges.

159
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 6: Some schools only accept five percent of the students that apply.

160
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 6: That means, of course, that ninety five percent of the

161
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 6: applicants get turned down. It's easy to think, why do

162
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 6: we even want to apply to those schools. It's practically impossible.

163
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 6: More than nine out of ten get denied. Jonathan, don't

164
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 6: get your hopes up. I don't see how you could

165
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 6: get in there. If we're not careful, we'll talk ourselves

166
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 6: out of it. You may think those thoughts, but don't

167
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 6: make the mistake of verbalizing them. Learn to turn it around. God,

168
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,679
Speaker 6: I know you have my son in the palm of

169
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 6: your hand. You've already picked out the right college for

170
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 6: him to attend. There may be only a five percent

171
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 6: chance for some schools, but God, I know with you.

172
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 5: There's a one hundred percent chance.

173
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,439
Speaker 6: He'll get in exactly where you want him to go.

174
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 5: God, you control the whole universe.

175
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 6: That's much better than going around all the odds are

176
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 6: against me. Look good, I don't see how it's going

177
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,840
Speaker 6: to happen. No, zip that up. If you can't be positive,

178
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 6: at least be quiet. You are prophesying your future.

179
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:12,359
Speaker 5: If you say.

180
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 6: I'll never get in, then you'll never get in. If

181
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,679
Speaker 6: you say this problem is going to sink me, then

182
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 6: it will sink you. If you say I'll never be

183
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 6: able to afford a nice house, You'll never be able

184
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 6: to afford a nice house.

185
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 5: You're be ensnared by the words of your mouth. Luke.

186
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 6: Chapter one, an angel appeared to a man named Zachariah.

187
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 6: The angel told him that his wife Elizabeth, was going

188
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 6: to have a baby and they were to name him John.

189
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 6: Zachariah was very surprised because he and his wife were

190
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,680
Speaker 6: way up there in years. He said to the angel,

191
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 6: are you sure this is going to happen? It sounds great,

192
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,439
Speaker 6: but do you see how old we are. To me,

193
00:10:55,679 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 6: it just doesn't seem possible. The angel said, Zachariah, I

194
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 6: am Gabriel. I stand in the presence of Almighty God,

195
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 6: and what God says will come to pass. But God

196
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 6: knows the power of our words. He knew if Zachariah

197
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 6: went around speaking defeat. It would stop his plan. So

198
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 6: God did something unusual. The angel said, Zachariah, because you doubted,

199
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 6: you will remain silent and not be.

200
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 5: Able to speak until the baby is born.

201
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 6: Zachariah left there unable to talk, couldn't say one word

202
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 6: for nine months until that child was born. Why did

203
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 6: God take away his speech? God knew he would go

204
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 6: out and start telling his friends how it wasn't gonna happen.

205
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 6: Hey man, this angel appeared said, we're gonna have a baby.

206
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 6: He must have got the wrong person.

207
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 5: We're too old.

208
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 6: God knows with our words we are prophesying our future.

209
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 6: A lot of times we think, well, joel, God's God.

210
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 6: If he wants to bless me, he'll bless me.

211
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:01,319
Speaker 5: No.

212
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 6: God works by laws. Yes, God wants to bless you,

213
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:10,080
Speaker 6: but it will not happen if you're speaking defeat over

214
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 6: your life. That's why the scripture says, put a watch

215
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 6: over your mouth. In other words, be careful what you

216
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 6: allow to come out of your mouth. This is especially

217
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 6: important in difficult times. That's when it's easy to get negative.

218
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,439
Speaker 6: Started saying, well, I don't think I'm ever going to

219
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 6: get well. I've had this sickness for three years, or

220
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 6: put a watch over your mouth.

221
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 5: Don't prophesy that defeat.

222
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 6: If you're going to say anything, say what God says,

223
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 6: I will live and not die. God is restoring health

224
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 6: back unto me. The number of my days he will fulfill.

225
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 6: That's what we should be saying. The thought comes, you'll

226
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 6: never accomplish your dreams. You'll never rise any higher. You've

227
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 6: gone as far as you can go. You can't stop

228
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 6: the thoughts from coming, but you can choose to not

229
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 6: give them life by speaking them out. When you don't

230
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:09,959
Speaker 6: speak it, that thought will die still born. It can't

231
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 6: take root and become a reality. But when you say it,

232
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 6: you are giving birth to what you're speaking All through

233
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 6: the day. You need to ask yourself, is what I'm

234
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 6: about to say? What I want to come into my life?

235
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 6: Because what you're saying you're inviting in. When you say

236
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 6: I'll never get out of death the economy's too slow,

237
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 6: you're inviting struggle and lack. When you say this problem's

238
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 6: too big, I don't think I'll ever get out of that.

239
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 6: You're inviting defeat, mediocrity. You need to send out some

240
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:50,680
Speaker 6: new invitations when you say I will lend and not borrow.

241
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 5: God's favor surrounds me like a shield.

242
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 6: Whatever I touch prospers and succeeds. You are inviting increase,

243
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 6: good breaks says. When you say I will overcome this problem,

244
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 6: I am more than a conqueror. If God before me,

245
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 6: who dare be against me? You're inviting strength, healing, restoration, vindication,

246
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 6: breakthroughs now. Pay attention to what you're inviting. Well, I'll

247
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 6: never pass this algebra course. I've never been good in math.

248
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 6: I just don't understand it. Change the invitation. I can

249
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 6: do all things through Christ. I have good understanding. I

250
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 6: am full of wisdom. I am an a student. When

251
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 6: you do that, you're inviting. As you're inviting wisdom, you're

252
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 6: inviting God's blessings. Make sure you're sending out the right invitations.

253
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 6: When I first started ministering back in nineteen ninety nine,

254
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 6: I had never done this before, and I was very

255
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 6: nervous and very unsure of myself. Every negative thought imaginable

256
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 6: would come to my mind, things like Joel, you're going

257
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 6: to get up there and make a fool of yourself.

258
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 6: You're not gonna know what to say. Nobody's gonna listen

259
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 6: to you. You don't have the experience. All through the

260
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 6: day I had to ignore those thoughts. I would go

261
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 6: around saying under my breath, I am anointed, I am equipped,

262
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 6: I am strong in the Lord. Before I would come

263
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 6: to church and minister, I would look at myself in

264
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 6: the mirror and say, Joel, you are well able. You've

265
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 6: been raised up for such a time as this.

266
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 5: The services would.

267
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 6: Go out all over through the television. Those thoughts would

268
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 6: come saying, what are you doing on television? Other ministers

269
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 6: are so much more qualified. Nobody's gonna tune you in.

270
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 6: Instead of repeating that from the very first, I started saying, Father,

271
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,880
Speaker 6: I want to thank you that people are being drawn

272
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 6: to me.

273
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 5: When they turn me on, they cannot turn me off.

274
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 5: Do you know I get letters every.

275
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 6: Day from people saying, Joel, I never watched TV ministers,

276
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 6: but I was flipping through the channels, and when I

277
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 6: turned you on, I couldn't turn you off. That's much

278
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 6: better than going around saying I'm not qualified, I don't.

279
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 5: Have the experience, I don't have what it takes.

280
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 6: The scripture says you've got to call the things that

281
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 6: are not as if they already were. I didn't feel confident,

282
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 6: but I called myself confident. I didn't feel annointed, but

283
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 6: I called myself anointed. Now you may not feel blessed,

284
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 6: but you need to call yourself blessed. The circumstances may

285
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 6: not say you're prosperous, but by faith.

286
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 5: You need to call yourself prosperous.

287
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 6: You may not feel healthy today, but don't go around

288
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 6: telling everyone how you're not going to make it. Start

289
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 6: calling yourself healthy, whole, strong, full of energy, full of life.

290
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 6: When Joshua was leading the people of Israel toward the

291
00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 6: Promised Land, they came to the city of Jericho. It

292
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 6: stood between them and their destiny. They couldn't go around it,

293
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 6: they had to go through it. The problem is Jericho

294
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:14,479
Speaker 6: was surrounded by a huge, thick, tall wall made up

295
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,680
Speaker 6: of stone and mortar. Didn't look like there was any

296
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 6: way the Israelites could get in, but God told them

297
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 6: to do something that sounded strange. To march around that

298
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 6: wall for six days, and on the seventh day they

299
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 6: were to march around seven times. If that wasn't odd enough,

300
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 6: God gave them one final instruction, the key to the

301
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 6: whole thing working. He said, while you're marching around the walls.

302
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 6: I don't want you to say one word, not a whisper,

303
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 6: not a short conversation, not an update on how it's going.

304
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 6: Keep totally silent. Why did God not allow them to speak?

305
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 6: God knew after a couple of times around, they'd start saying,

306
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 6: what in the world are we doing out here? This

307
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 6: wall's never gonna fall. Look how thick it is, It's

308
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 6: been here for years. Joshua must have heard God wrong.

309
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 6: Somebody else speak up. Yeah, and I'm tired, I'm hot,

310
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 6: and I'm hungry.

311
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 5: This dust is getting in my face.

312
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 6: God knew they would talk themselves out of it. In fact,

313
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 6: it had happened years before. Their parents their relatives were

314
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 6: camped next door to the Promised Land. But when the

315
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 6: spies came back and told everyone how big their enemies were,

316
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 6: that negative report spread like wildfire throughout the rest.

317
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 5: Of the camp.

318
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 6: Before long, all two million people were complaining, saying, we

319
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 6: don't have a chance, will never defeat these enemies. Even

320
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:51,240
Speaker 6: though they were next door, Their negative words kept them

321
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:55,159
Speaker 6: from going in. God knew it had happened once and

322
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 6: it would happen again, so he told them to be quiet.

323
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 6: He would say it in effect, I know you're not

324
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:02,479
Speaker 6: going to be positive.

325
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:03,199
Speaker 5: So just stay silent.

326
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 6: There are times in all of our lives where it's

327
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 6: difficult to be positive, and that's okay. Just stay silent.

328
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 6: Don't tell everyone what you're thinking. You know how the

329
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 6: story ends. On the seventh time around or the seventh day,

330
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:19,720
Speaker 6: the walls came tumbling down.

331
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:21,479
Speaker 5: Here's the question today.

332
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:26,640
Speaker 6: Could it be that negative words are keeping you out

333
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 6: of your promised land? Could it be if you would

334
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 6: remain silent, not talk about how big the problem is,

335
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 6: not complain about what didn't work out, Not tell a

336
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 6: friend how you're never going to be successful that if

337
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 6: you would zip it up, maybe the walls that are

338
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:48,639
Speaker 6: holding you back would come down. Imagine behind that wall

339
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:52,719
Speaker 6: is your healing, your promotion, your dream coming to pass.

340
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 6: Every day, so to speak, you're walking around the wall.

341
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,919
Speaker 5: What are you saying? This wall's never going to fall join.

342
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,199
Speaker 6: I've had this addiction since high school.

343
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 5: I'll never be able.

344
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,479
Speaker 6: To start my own business. I don't know the right people.

345
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 6: No God is saying to us what he said to

346
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 6: the Israelites. If you can't say anything good, don't say

347
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:18,159
Speaker 6: anything at all. Don't let Your negative words keep you

348
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:23,160
Speaker 6: from God's best. If you'll stop talking, defeat, lack how

349
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 6: it's not going to happen, and simply remain silent. God

350
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,160
Speaker 6: can do for you what he did for them. He

351
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 6: knows how to bring those walls down. When we're marching

352
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,959
Speaker 6: around the walls, sometimes we go day after day and

353
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:42,200
Speaker 6: we don't see anything happening. Just like them, the thoughts

354
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:46,400
Speaker 6: come saying you didn't hear God right, nothing is changing.

355
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 6: You go to work every week, do your best. You're

356
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 6: not being promoted. No, that is a time of testing.

357
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:58,040
Speaker 6: Like the Israelites. You're marching around the wall. You may

358
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 6: be on day five. That translates into you've been doing

359
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,439
Speaker 6: it a year, two years, five years.

360
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 5: Surely it would have happened by now. No, pass that test.

361
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:11,639
Speaker 5: Don't start complaining.

362
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 6: Don't do like the first group and say, oh, what's

363
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 6: the use, let's just settle here. No, when the negative

364
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 6: thoughts come, let them die still born. Refuse to prophesy,

365
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 6: defeat over your life. If you do this, you will

366
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,920
Speaker 6: come in to your seventh day. Like the Israelites, those

367
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 6: walls will come tumbling down. God is a faithful god.

368
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:41,160
Speaker 5: He will do what he's promised you Second Kings, Chapter four.

369
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,679
Speaker 6: There was a woman that was good friends with the

370
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 6: Prophet Elisha. In fact, she had built an extra room

371
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:51,639
Speaker 6: on her house so when Elisha was in town he

372
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 6: could come and stay there. One day, Elisha asked her

373
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 6: what he could do for her to return the favor.

374
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 6: She said, nothing, Elisha, My husband and I were doing

375
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 6: just fine. Elisha noticed that they didn't have any children.

376
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:09,840
Speaker 6: Her husband was an older man. Before he left, he prophesied,

377
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 6: by this time next year.

378
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 5: You're going to have a baby. She was so excited.

379
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 6: Sure enough, the next year she had a baby boy.

380
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 6: When that son was about ten years old, he was

381
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,400
Speaker 6: out in the field playing one day and his head

382
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 6: began to hurt very badly. They carried him home and

383
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 6: placed him in his mother's arms, where he later died.

384
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 6: You can imagine how this mother felt. She was heartbroken, devastated.

385
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 6: She carried her son to Elisha's room and placed him

386
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:45,639
Speaker 6: on Elisha's bed. For most people, this would be the

387
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:49,120
Speaker 6: end of the story, but not this lady. She told

388
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 6: her assistant, saddle me up a horse. I'm going to

389
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:57,160
Speaker 6: see the Prophet Elisha. The assistant said, ma'am, you don't

390
00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,199
Speaker 6: need to do that. There's nothing he can do to

391
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 6: say it. But your son is no longer alive, she said,

392
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:07,160
Speaker 6: don't ask questions, Just get me a horse ready. Men,

393
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,480
Speaker 6: we know better than to mess with a woman who's

394
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:13,119
Speaker 6: got her mind made of She got on this horse

395
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,359
Speaker 6: and took off toward Elisha's house as fast as she could.

396
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 6: Can imagine, like the lone ranger. She was riding in

397
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 6: to bring justice. When Elisha saw the dust billowing up

398
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 6: in the sky a couple of miles away. At one point,

399
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,720
Speaker 6: he noticed it was his friend, the woman that had

400
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 6: built the extra.

401
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 5: Room on her house.

402
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 6: Elisha told his assistant gahes I, go find out what's wrong.

403
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,680
Speaker 6: Gahes I jumped on his horse and met the woman

404
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:46,920
Speaker 6: way down the road. Stopped her. Said, hey, Elisha's concerned.

405
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:50,719
Speaker 6: Why are you coming unexpectedly in such a hurry?

406
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 5: Is anything wrong? I love the way she answered.

407
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 6: She said, no, all is well. She kept heading full

408
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 6: steam ahead. Okay, hayes I thought about it and said,

409
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 6: that doesn't make sense. He caught back up to her

410
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:06,879
Speaker 6: a second time. Let me ask you again.

411
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:09,360
Speaker 5: Is everything okay.

412
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 6: With your husband?

413
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 5: She said? All is well? Is everything okay at your house?

414
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 5: All is well?

415
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 6: Then he asked, is everything okay with your son? She

416
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 6: said it again, all as well. She was speaking it

417
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 6: by faith. A lot of times when we face difficulties.

418
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 6: Somebody asked us how everything's going, we do just the opposite.

419
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 5: Oh man, let me tell you. My business is so slow.

420
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:41,399
Speaker 6: My stocks are down, my back's been hurting, dishwasher broke,

421
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,679
Speaker 6: somebody dented in my car, and traffic was backed up.

422
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,920
Speaker 6: Usher wouldn't let me sit where I wanted to sit

423
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:53,160
Speaker 6: this morning. It's easy to talk about the problem, how

424
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,879
Speaker 6: bad it is, how it's never gonna work out. But

425
00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 6: in those tough times when you feel like complaining, you

426
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 6: got a good reason to be sour. You lost a job,

427
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 6: a friend did you wrong, you're.

428
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 5: Not feeling well.

429
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 6: That's when you have to dig your heels in and

430
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 6: say it by faith. Business is slow, but all is well.

431
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 6: God is still on the throne. He's Jehovah, Jirah, the Lord,

432
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 6: my provider. Or the medical report wasn't good, but all

433
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 6: is well. God is my healer. Nothing will snatch me

434
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 6: out of his hands. She made it finally to Elisha's house.

435
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 6: She said, Elisha, this son you promised me has died.

436
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 6: In other words, I didn't ask for the boy Elijah.

437
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,640
Speaker 6: You prophesied it and God gave him to me. And

438
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 6: I know if you will come pray for him, he

439
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,439
Speaker 6: will come back to life. He got on his horse,

440
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 6: went to her house, prayed for the little boy, and

441
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 6: he came back to life.

442
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,680
Speaker 5: A great miracle. But here's what I want you to see.

443
00:25:55,720 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 6: Even in her darkest hour, even when it looked him possible,

444
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 6: she refused to get negative and speak defeat. When gahyes,

445
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 6: I ask is everything okay? She could have said, no,

446
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 6: I'm in the midst of a great tragedy. I'm facing

447
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:15,679
Speaker 6: the biggest challenge of my life. Nobody would have faulted

448
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:19,639
Speaker 6: her for that. But this lady chose to speak faith,

449
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 6: even though her mind was being bombarded with doubt. She

450
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,480
Speaker 6: had a watch over her mouth. She wasn't going to

451
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:30,920
Speaker 6: be snared by her words. When you're hurting, you've been

452
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 6: through a disappointment, you've suffered a loss, you've got to

453
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,919
Speaker 6: do like her, say it by faith.

454
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 5: All is well. It may not look well, may not

455
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 5: feel well.

456
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 6: In the natural, you should be complaining, talking about how

457
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 6: bad it is, but instead you're making a declaration of faith.

458
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 5: All is well. That's when the most powerful force in

459
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:53,600
Speaker 5: the universe goes to work.

460
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 6: Friends, God can resurrect dead dreams. He can resurrect a

461
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:03,159
Speaker 6: dead marriage. He can resurrect health that's going down or

462
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 6: a business that's going down. When you get in agreement

463
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 6: with God, all things are possible. You may be facing

464
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:14,120
Speaker 6: a big obstacle. It doesn't look good, but here's a key.

465
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,920
Speaker 6: Don't talk about the size of your problem. Talk about

466
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 6: the size of your God. God stopped the Son for Joshua.

467
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 6: He parted the Red Sea for the Israelites. He breathed

468
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,640
Speaker 6: new life into this little boy. He can turn your

469
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 6: situation around as well. He can make a way even

470
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:37,480
Speaker 6: though you don't see away. My challenge today is don't

471
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:41,360
Speaker 6: let your negative words stop what God wants to do.

472
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:46,119
Speaker 6: If you can't say anything positive, zip it up. You

473
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 6: may think it, but don't give it life.

474
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:49,440
Speaker 5: By speaking it out.

475
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 6: Your healing, your vindication, your promotion is right up in

476
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:58,119
Speaker 6: front of you. Like Jeremiah, God has already ordained you.

477
00:27:58,040 --> 00:27:59,119
Speaker 5: To do something great.

478
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 6: Put a watch over your mouth, pay attention to what

479
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:03,399
Speaker 6: you're saying.

480
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 5: For some of you.

481
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 6: When you make this adjustment, God is going to release

482
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 6: promises that have been delayed. What you've been praying about,

483
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 6: breaking that addiction, meeting the right person, getting healthy again,

484
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 6: starting that business. Suddenly things are going to fall into place.

485
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 6: You're going to see God's favor in a new way.

486
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 6: He's going to open up new doors of opportunity. I

487
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 6: believe in declare, like Joshua and the Israelites, every wall

488
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:35,160
Speaker 6: that's holding you back is about to come crumbling down.

489
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 6: You and your children will make it into your promised

490
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 6: land if you receive it. Can you say man today,

491
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,960
Speaker 6: for we never like to close our broadcast without giving

492
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 6: you an opportunity to make Jesus the lord of your life.

493
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 6: Would you pray with me? Just say Lord, Jesus, I'll

494
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 6: repent of my sins. Come into my heart.

495
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 5: I make you my life and savior.

496
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 6: Friends, if you prayed that simple prayer, we believe you

497
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,840

498
