They were 44 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 3: spending the night at their grandmother's house, and she told 45 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 3: them before they went to bed to make sure they 46 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 3: said their prayers. They went in the bedroom, got down 47 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,360 Speaker 3: on their knees, and the youngest brother started praying at 48 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,239 Speaker 3: the top of his lungs. God, I pray for a 49 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 3: new bicycle. I pray for a new PlayStation. I pray 50 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 3: for a new puppy. His brother stopped him and said, 51 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 3: why are you screaming? God isn't death? He said, I 52 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 3: know that, but grandmother is say it like you mean it. 53 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 3: This is my Bible. I am what it says. I am. 54 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 3: I have what it says I have. I can do 55 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,239 Speaker 3: what it says I can do. Today I will be 56 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 3: taught the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind 57 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,239 Speaker 3: is alert, my heart is recepted. I will never be 58 00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 3: the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want 59 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 3: to talk to you today about surrounded by the most high. 60 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 3: We all have times where we feel like we're surrounded 61 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 3: by difficulties, surrounded by sickness, surrounded by death. Everywhere we 62 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 3: turn it's facing us, and it's easy to get discouraged 63 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 3: and think I'll never get out of this. It has 64 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 3: me surrounded. That's the way a young man felt in 65 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:27,239 Speaker 3: Second Kings, chapter six, the King of Aram had just 66 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 3: sent a great army with horses and chariots to surround 67 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 3: Elisha's house. They snuck up in the middle of the 68 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 3: night and had it totally encircled. The next morning, when 69 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 3: the young men went out saw all the horses and chariots, 70 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 3: he nearly passed out. He ran back in, totally panicked, said, Elisha, 71 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 3: wake up, We're surrounded by the enemy. What are we 72 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 3: going to do? Elisha said, don't be afraid. There are 73 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 3: more for us than there are against us. I can 74 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 3: hear him say, do you mean, Elisha, just you and me? 75 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 3: I saw thousands of them, Elisha prayed. Lord opened his 76 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 3: eyes and let him see. All of a sudden, the 77 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 3: young man looked out and saw hundreds of thousands of powerful, 78 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 3: warring angels all across the mountain side, standing beside their 79 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 3: chariots afire. He thought he was surrounded by the enemy. 80 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 3: The truth is the enemy was surrounded by our God. 81 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 3: Like him. You may be surrounded by trouble, surrounded by sickness, 82 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 3: surrounded by an addiction. But what you can't see is 83 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 3: the most high God is surrounding what's surrounding you. Sickness 84 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 3: may be surrounding you. You're dealing with an illness. The 85 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 3: good news is sickness doesn't have the final say. Sickness 86 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 3: is surrounded. The right attitude is cancer. You think you 87 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 3: have me surrounded, you better look again. My God has 88 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 3: you surrounded that you think you're surrounding me. I have 89 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 3: bad news for you. The Lord, my provider, is surrounding you. 90 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 3: Trouble at work. You think you're going to keep me 91 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 3: from my purpose, depression, you think you're going to stop 92 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 3: my destiny. You may have me surrounded. I'll give you 93 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 3: that much, but I know a secret. The most High 94 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 3: God is surrounding you. When you understand God is surrounding 95 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 3: what's surrounding you, you won't go around discourage because of problems, 96 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 3: worried about finances, upset because somebody's against you. You'll be 97 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 3: like Elisha. You'll stay in peace knowing that there are 98 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:45,119 Speaker 3: more for you than there are against you. Elisha prayed 99 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 3: that God would open the young man's eyes so he 100 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 3: could see there's another world that we cannot see with 101 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 3: our physical eyes. If God were to pull back the 102 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 3: curtain like he did for this young man, and you 103 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 3: could see into the unseen realm. You would see all 104 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 3: these powerful, warring angels at work on your behalf, standing guard, 105 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 3: protecting you, pushing back forces of darkness. You would see 106 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 3: God moving the wrong people out of the way, lining 107 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 3: up things in your favor, good breaks, healing, deliverance. Don't 108 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 3: get discouraged by what you see with your physical eyes. 109 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 3: If you stay focused on the opposition, the addiction, the sickness, 110 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 3: then you'll live stressed out. You'll give up on dreams. 111 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 3: Through your eyes of faith, you need to see every 112 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 3: obstacle holding you back surrounded by the most high. That 113 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 3: addiction may be strong, but it's surrounded by something stronger. 114 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 3: God controls the universe. He flung stars into space. One 115 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,559 Speaker 3: angel in the Old Testament defeated one hundred and eighty 116 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 3: thousand of the enemies of God. You may have big 117 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 3: obstacles in your you feel stuck. I believe today God 118 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 3: is opening our eyes. We're getting a new perspective, recognizing 119 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 3: He's surrounding what's surrounding us. That child that's off course, 120 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 3: does it look like he'll fulfill his destiny? Imagine him 121 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 3: surrounded by mercy, surrounded by favor, surrounded by the most time. 122 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 3: David said in Psalm three, I am not afraid of 123 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 3: ten thousand enemies that surround me on every side. You 124 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 3: would think with so many enemies, he'd be a little worried, upset, afraid. 125 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 3: He went on to say, I know victory comes from 126 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 3: the Lord. He was saying, yes, I'm surrounded by all 127 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 3: these enemies. I could be overwhelmed. But the reason I'm 128 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 3: not falling apart is I know a secret God is 129 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:58,679 Speaker 3: surrounding what's surrounding me. He had his spiritual eyes open. 130 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 3: He didn't just see his enemies through his eyes of faith. 131 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 3: He saw the most high fighting his battles, making his 132 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 3: crooked places strife. Like David, you may feel surrounded by enemies, addictions, sicknesses. 133 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 3: Maybe forces are kind to keep you from your dreams. 134 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 3: You could easily think, well, it's just not meant to be. 135 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 3: But here's the key. What you see with your physical 136 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 3: eyes is not the only thing surrounding you. If you'll 137 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 3: open your eyes of faith, you'll recognize the trouble, the addiction, 138 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 3: the dysfunction. It is surrounded by our God. You're not 139 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 3: just surrounded by the negative. That's one layer, But God 140 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:47,599 Speaker 3: supersedes that you're surrounded by fever, surrounded by healing, surrounded 141 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,959 Speaker 3: by victory. I saw a movie one time based on 142 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 3: a true story from back in the seventeen hundreds. This 143 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 3: army had surrounded a city. They were planning to attack it. 144 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,679 Speaker 3: They were very strategic to go completely around it to 145 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,839 Speaker 3: make sure nobody could get out. They cut off the 146 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 3: food supply and were going to wait several weeks until 147 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 3: the people were famished and then't go in. And this 148 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:16,320 Speaker 3: army was very arrogant, cocky people. They would stand outside 149 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:20,439 Speaker 3: the city walls and hurl insults, make fun, trying to 150 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 3: get the people to engage. A month later, they decided 151 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 3: to attack. They rushed into the city so confidently. The 152 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 3: only problem was nobody was there. When they turned to leave, 153 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 3: they suddenly realized they were the one surrounded. The people 154 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 3: in the city received word that they were going to attack. 155 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 3: They snuck out before they got there and went and 156 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 3: hid in the hills while the enemy was surrounding the city. 157 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 3: Being so strategic, thinking they were gaining the upper hand, 158 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 3: the people from the city were surrounding them. When they 159 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 3: realized they were totally surrounded, they put up the white 160 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 3: flag drop their weapons, surrender. When you're in difficult times, 161 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,719 Speaker 3: the enemy will do a lot of talking. He'll tell 162 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 3: you I have you surrounded. This sickness will be the end. 163 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 3: You'll never get out, you'll never break the addiction, you'll 164 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 3: never get out of debt. Look how long you've been there. 165 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 3: Don't believe those lies. He thinks he has you surrounded. 166 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 3: What he doesn't realize is the most high God has 167 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 3: him surrounded. God knows everything that's going to happen. He 168 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:36,599 Speaker 3: knows every attack, every disappointment, every unfair situation. When you 169 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 3: feel like you're surrounded, you have to come back to 170 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 3: that place of peace and say, I know my God 171 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 3: is still on the throne. He's bigger than this sickness, 172 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 3: greater than this addiction, more powerful than these enemies. This 173 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 3: is what the three Hebrew teenagers did in the scripture. 174 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 3: They wouldn't bow down to King Nebuchaonezzar's golden idol. He 175 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:00,959 Speaker 3: was so upset. He said, I'm going to give you 176 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 3: one last chance. Either bow down or you're going to 177 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,839 Speaker 3: be thrown into a fiery furnace. They said, King, no 178 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 3: disrespect to you, but we're not going to bow down 179 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 3: to your idol. We know our God will deliver us, 180 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 3: but even if he doesn't, we're still not going to 181 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 3: bow down. They were saying, you can't stop God's plan 182 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 3: for our life. You can throw us in the fire. 183 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 3: We may be surrounded by that fire, but we know 184 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 3: our God is surrounding the fire. If it's not our 185 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 3: time to go, we're not going to go. The king 186 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 3: was so furious he had the furnace heated seven times 187 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 3: hotter than normal. The teenagers were tied up and thrown 188 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:47,719 Speaker 3: into the furnace. They weren't bitter, complaining God, why'd you 189 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,959 Speaker 3: let this happen? They stayed in peace. A little later 190 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,559 Speaker 3: the king went to check on them. He looked through 191 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 3: the window in the furnace and said, didn't we throw 192 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 3: three men in bound? I see four men loosed, and 193 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 3: one looks like the son of God. You may feel 194 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 3: like you're in the fire today. You've had a disappointment. 195 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 3: You don't see how it could work out. The good 196 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 3: news is you're not in there by yourself. The God 197 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 3: who controls the fire, that fourth man is right there 198 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:21,079 Speaker 3: with you. This is the beauty of our God. He 199 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 3: doesn't leave us in tough times. He comes into the 200 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 3: fire with us, The king thought, throwing them into the furnace, 201 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 3: surrounding them by fire, surely that would be the end. 202 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 3: What he didn't realize is the God who created the fire, 203 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 3: the God who controls the universe. He has the final say. 204 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:48,679 Speaker 3: What's surrounding you may seem big, strong, insurmountable, but our 205 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 3: God is all powerful. That sickness may look like it's 206 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 3: the end. But when God says live, you're going to live. 207 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,319 Speaker 3: That addiction may look permanent. Thoughts tell you you'll never 208 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 3: break it. God is saying you're not going to stay 209 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 3: in that fire. That addiction is not how your story ends. 210 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 3: The Fourth Man is about to show up. Things are 211 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 3: about to change in your favor. What you thought was 212 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 3: going to stop you instead is going to promote you. 213 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 3: When Nebuknezar saw that the teenagers were still alive, he 214 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 3: couldn't believe it. He shouted, Shadrak me Jack of Bendigo, 215 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 3: servants of the Most High God, come out of that fire. 216 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 3: A few minutes earlier, he was telling them to bow 217 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,839 Speaker 3: to his golden idol. Now he's calling them servants of 218 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 3: the Most High God. Sometimes God will allow the fire 219 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 3: just so other people will see he is God. He'll 220 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 3: use you as an example. They may not believe before, 221 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 3: but when they see God show out in your life, 222 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 3: when they see you beat the cancer, break the addiction, 223 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 3: set an new standard, go where you've never dreamed, they 224 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,199 Speaker 3: won't be able to deny the blessing of God on 225 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 3: your life. When these teenagers came out of the furnace, 226 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 3: people never looked at them the same way again. They 227 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 3: had a new influence, a new respect, a new level. 228 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 3: In fact, never Kanezar said, praise be to the God 229 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 3: of Shadrak knee jack in a vendigo. We may not 230 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 3: like the fiery furnaces, but if we'll do like them 231 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 3: and keep the right attitude, God will use that difficulty 232 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 3: to establish you, to give you more credibility, to take 233 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 3: you to a new level. It's interesting it doesn't say 234 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 3: that the teenagers saw the fourth Man. It says never 235 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 3: Coar saw him, the one that threw them into the fire. 236 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 3: In other words, the people that tried to push you down, 237 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 3: the people that tried to hold you back, don't worry. 238 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 3: They're going to see the hand of God on you 239 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 3: things that you may not be able to see. This 240 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 3: is why you don't have to prove to people who 241 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 3: you are. You don't have to convince them that you're right. 242 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 3: God is your vindicator. He knows how to get their attention, 243 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 3: he knows how to change their mind. Well, Joel, if 244 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 3: I'm surrounded by the most time, why did I have 245 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 3: the problem in the first place? Why didn't God keep 246 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 3: me out of the furnace? But God never said we 247 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 3: wouldn't have difficulties. Being people of faith doesn't exempt us 248 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 3: from challenges, unfair situations. The Psalmist said, many are the 249 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 3: afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers us out 250 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 3: of them all. The promise is not that you won't 251 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 3: have challenges. The promise is God will bring you out, 252 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 3: not of some of them, not of most of them, 253 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 3: but out of all of them. When you're in the fire, 254 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 3: the right report is I'm coming out. This sickness is 255 00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 3: not the end. This trouble is not permanent. This slowdown 256 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 3: at work is just a season. You may not realize it, 257 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 3: but God is in the process of bringing you out 258 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 3: right now. You may not see him, but the fourth 259 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 3: man's in your fire right now. Without him there, you 260 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 3: wouldn't still be here. He's the one keeping the fire 261 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 3: from harming you. He's the one pushing back forces of darkness. 262 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 3: Don't complain in the fire, give God praise in the furnace, 263 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 3: be your best right where you are. That difficulty cannot 264 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 3: keep you from your purpose. But we pray God, keep 265 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 3: me out of the fire, keep me out of this problem. 266 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 3: And sometimes God will do that. But most of the 267 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 3: time God will make you fire proof and take you 268 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 3: through the fire. Coming out of the furnace is a 269 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 3: greater testimony. That's what gave the teenagers a new respect 270 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 3: with the king. That's what changed the way people saw them. 271 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 3: If God kept us out of furnace, we wouldn't reach 272 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 3: the fullness of our destinies. Here's why, when the teenagers 273 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:10,120 Speaker 3: were in the fire, the only thing that burned were 274 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 3: the cords that had them tied up. Your clothes didn't burn, 275 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 3: their shoes didn't burn, just the cords. When you're in 276 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 3: the fire, God knows how to protect what you need 277 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 3: and at the same time burn off anything that's holding 278 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 3: you back. You are not going to come out of 279 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 3: the fire the same. You're going to come out free 280 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 3: from things that are holding you back with a greater influence. 281 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,640 Speaker 3: People are going to look at you in a new light. 282 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 3: People that look down at you are going to look 283 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 3: up to you. People that wouldn't pay you any attention 284 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 3: are going to want your friendship. Psalm thirty four says 285 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 3: the angel of the Lord encamps around those that fear him. 286 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 3: One translation says, God's angels set up a circle of 287 00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 3: protection around us. That's what happened with the teenager. That 288 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 3: circle of protection didn't keep them out of the fire, 289 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:08,120 Speaker 3: but it kept the fire from harming them. If you're 290 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 3: not supposed to go in the fire, you're not going 291 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 3: to go. God will keep you out. But if you 292 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 3: do go, that doesn't mean God lets you down. Well, 293 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 3: I prayed, I was doing my best. Joel, I got 294 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 3: thrown into the furnace, came down with this illness. My 295 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 3: company had to let me go. The enemy cannot break 296 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:32,159 Speaker 3: the circle of protection God has around you. If you 297 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 3: go in the fire, that means God allowed it. The 298 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 3: good news is the same God that lets you go 299 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 3: in is the God that's going to bring you out. 300 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 3: The enemy is not in control of your life. God 301 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 3: is God. Said to Satan, have you seen my servant job. 302 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 3: There's nobody like him. He always honors me. Satan answered 303 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 3: something interesting. He said, why shouldn't he honor you? You 304 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 3: put a head edge of protection around him. He couldn't 305 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:08,120 Speaker 3: test Job without first asking God for permission. And Job 306 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 3: went through the test the unfair situations, but he didn't 307 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:15,440 Speaker 3: get bitter. Job said, though he slaved me, yet, will 308 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 3: I trust him? He was saying what the teenager said, God, 309 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 3: my life is in your hands. I'm surrounded by trouble, 310 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 3: but I know you have the final say. You're surrounding 311 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 3: what's surrounding me, like Job, like these teenagers, God has 312 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 3: a hedge of protection around you and your family. I 313 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 3: heard a story about a young girl. She was walking 314 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 3: to her car after class late one night, and he 315 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:45,680 Speaker 3: was in a dark parking lot and didn't look like 316 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 3: anybody was around. All of a sudden, these three men 317 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,479 Speaker 3: stepped out. They were hiding behind a car about fifty 318 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 3: feet in front of her, and her heart skipped a beat. 319 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 3: She knew they were there to harm her. She wanted 320 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 3: to run, but she didn't have a chance. She stood there, 321 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:07,440 Speaker 3: praying under her breath as the men continued coming closer. 322 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 3: In her mind she was afraid, but in her heart 323 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 3: she was at peace. Something told her everything is going 324 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 3: to be okay. When the men got about fifteen feet away, 325 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 3: suddenly they froze in their tracks. Their eyes got real big. 326 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 3: Terror came across their face. They began to back up slowly, carefully. 327 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 3: Then they turned and ran as fast as they could. 328 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 3: She knew that God protected her, but she didn't really 329 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 3: know what happened. A few days later, they arrested one 330 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 3: of the men. He admitted that they were going to 331 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 3: harm her, but when they got close to her, he said, 332 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 3: this mighty warrior suddenly appeared. He began to describe, and 333 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 3: he stood over ten feet tall. He talked about his physique, 334 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:01,680 Speaker 3: how his arms, his legs, his chest were rippled with muscles, 335 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 3: and how his face was radiating with so much light 336 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 3: they could hardly look at him. He had his sword drawn. 337 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 3: He was standing over this young lady. She only came 338 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 3: up to his waist. Had a sword in one hand 339 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 3: a shield in the other. He stared at those three 340 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 3: men just like he was saying, come on, make my dad, 341 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 3: I dare you to touch her in the unseen realm. 342 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 3: Just like her, you have these powerful warring angels protecting you. 343 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 3: You may be surrounded by trouble. The good news is 344 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 3: the most high is surrounding that trouble. Psal ninety one says, 345 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 3: when you honor God, he will command his angels to 346 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 3: watch over you. These three men thought they had the 347 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 3: young lady surrounded. They thought, no big deal, one girl 348 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:57,679 Speaker 3: against three grown men. What they didn't realize was, like Elisha, 349 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 3: God had them surrounded. Those warring angels were standing guard 350 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 3: instead of going around worried, afraid. Turn it around. Father, 351 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 3: Thank you that your angels are watching over me. Thank 352 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 3: you that I'm surrounded by protection, surrounded by your goodness. 353 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 3: When you go through life in faith, knowing that God 354 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 3: is surrounding what's surrounding you, you're showing God that you 355 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:27,199 Speaker 3: trust him. That's what allows God to show himself strong 356 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 3: in your life. But you all, I had a bad break, 357 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 3: God thrown into the furnace. Don't see how it's going 358 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 3: to work out. That's going to keep you where you are. 359 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 3: The right attitude is, yes, this sickness has come against me, 360 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 3: but I know I'm surrounded by healing. Yes, I had 361 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 3: a bad break, but this is not my final chapter. 362 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:52,360 Speaker 3: I'm surrounded by favor, surrounded by restoration. God didn't bring 363 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 3: you this far to leave you. It's a test. Every 364 00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 3: person gets thrown into the furnace. It's not to feat you, 365 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 3: it's to establish you. It's to let other people see 366 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 3: God's favor is on your life, and to let you 367 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 3: know that God is still in control. Every furnace God 368 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 3: brings you out of. You come out with a greater 369 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 3: trust in God, a greater confidence, a greater faith. That's 370 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 3: getting you prepared for the next level of your destiny. 371 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 3: With every experience, something is deposited that you will use 372 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 3: down the road. If you didn't need the furnace, if 373 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 3: it wasn't going to work for your good, God would 374 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,879 Speaker 3: have kept you out. You may not understand it, it 375 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 3: may not seem fair, but God knows what he's doing. 376 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 3: He's not going to let it defeat you. Thoughts will 377 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,880 Speaker 3: tell you you'll never get out, you'll never get well, 378 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,159 Speaker 3: it'll never turn around. Don't believe that God is bringing 379 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 3: you out right now like these teenagers. You're not only 380 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 3: going to come out, You're going to come out stronger, 381 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 3: from odd to a new level of your destiny. In 382 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 3: the story Second King's Chapter six, Elisha prayed for the 383 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 3: young man that the Lord would open his eyes and 384 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 3: he saw all those powerful angels. But when the enemy 385 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:18,640 Speaker 3: army came closer, Elisha prayed just the opposite, Lord, make 386 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 3: them blind. The commander knocked on Elisha's door said, I'm 387 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 3: here to see Elisha. Elisha said, you've come to the 388 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 3: wrong city. He doesn't live here. Let me take you 389 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,879 Speaker 3: to where he is. Sometimes you have to lie for 390 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:38,920 Speaker 3: the Lord. Elisha led this enemy army to the city 391 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 3: of Samaria, where they were surrounded by the Israelites. Then 392 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:47,399 Speaker 3: he prayed, Lord opened their eyes. They suddenly realized they 393 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 3: were captured. It was a trap. They were at the 394 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 3: mercy of Elisha. Elisha let them go. The scripture says 395 00:24:55,359 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 3: they never bothered the Israelites anymore. God knows how to 396 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:05,440 Speaker 3: turn your situation around. Like Elisha, there are enemies that 397 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 3: are not going to bother you anymore. That sickness you've 398 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,239 Speaker 3: struggled with for years, God is going to put an 399 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 3: end to it. That financial difficulty you can't seem to 400 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 3: get ahead. You keep honoring God being your best. You're 401 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,360 Speaker 3: going to see those forces that have hindered you broken 402 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:28,120 Speaker 3: once and for all. Now I realize that we will 403 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 3: never live trouble free. But there are some enemies. Like 404 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:37,440 Speaker 3: with Elisha, God will free you from permanently. God told 405 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 3: the Israelites the enemies you see today, you will see 406 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 3: no more those things that are holding you back, a sickness, depression, addictions. 407 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 3: Dare to believe like what God told the Israelites, the 408 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 3: sickness you see today, you will see no more. That 409 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 3: addiction that's dogged you for years. You will see no more. 410 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 3: That trouble at work trying to push you down, You 411 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 3: will see no more. A man told me recently how 412 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 3: for over twenty years he wasn't treated fairly at work 413 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 3: because his boss didn't like him. This man was in cells. 414 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 3: He sold more than all the other salespeople, but he 415 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 3: was always overlooked for promotion, never given the bonuses that 416 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 3: he deserved. He didn't get bitter. He kept being his best. 417 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 3: He told me last week, Joe, my boss was just 418 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 3: suddenly terminated. They didn't tell anybody why, but out of 419 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:36,719 Speaker 3: over sixty sealspeople, he was chosen to take his boss's position. 420 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 3: God is a god of justice. You keep doing the 421 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 3: right thing, and like him, you will come into that 422 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 3: day where the enemies you see today you will see 423 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 3: no more. They think they have you surrounded. The good 424 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 3: news is the most high. God has them surrounded. My 425 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 3: prayer for us, Lord, open our eye, help us to 426 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 3: realize there are more for us than there are against us. 427 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,920 Speaker 3: That trouble that's keeping you awake at night, come back 428 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 3: to a place of peace. God has the trouble surrounded. Sure, 429 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 3: we all get thrown into the furnace, but the fire 430 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,159 Speaker 3: is not the end. The only thing it's going to 431 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 3: do is burn off what's holding you back all through 432 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:26,639 Speaker 3: the day, especially when you're tempted to worry. Remind yourself, 433 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 3: I am surrounded by the most time. If you'll do this, 434 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 3: I believe and declare. God is going to protect you, 435 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 3: deliver you, promote you. Things that have held you back 436 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 3: are being broken. Right now. You're coming out of the 437 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 3: furnace into freedom, into favor, in the healing, into the 438 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 3: fullness of your destiny in Jesus' name, and if you 439 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 3: receive it, can you say amen? Today I'd like to 440 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 3: give you an opportunity to make Jesus the lord of 441 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:01,680 Speaker 3: your life. Would you pray with me? Just say, Lord Jesus, 442 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:08,120 Speaker 3: I'll repent of my sins. Come into my heart. I'll 443 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:11,879 Speaker 3: make you my lord and Savior. If you prayed that 444 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:15,359 Speaker 3: simple prayer, we believe you got born again.
