It's always a joy to come 8 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:21,160 Speaker 1: into your homes. We love you, and we know God 9 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 1: has great things in store. He rewards people that seek 10 00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:26,440 Speaker 1: after Him and I believe that's you, and I know 11 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 1: it's all of you. But whenever you're in our area, 12 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: I hope you'll stop by and be a part of 13 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 1: one of our services. I promise you we'll make you 14 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 1: feel right at home. But thanks so much for tuning 15 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:38,880 Speaker 1: in today, and thanks again for coming out. I like 16 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 1: to start each week with something kind of funny, and 17 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 1: I heard about this minister. He noticed a dead mule 18 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,199 Speaker 1: on the church grounds. He called the health department and 19 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: they said they couldn't pick it up without authorization from 20 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: the mayor. Well, the mayor was known to be very 21 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: rude and very hard to get along with. When the 22 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: minister called, the mayor didn't disappoint gard at ranting and 23 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: raving and Finally, he said, why are you even bothering me? 24 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,400 Speaker 1: Isn't it your job to bury the dead? The minister 25 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 1: asked God to give him the right response. He said, yes, Mayor, 26 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: it is my job to bury the dead, but I 27 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: always like to notify the next of ken first. 28 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 3: All right, hold up your bible. 29 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: Say it like you mean it. This is my Bible. 30 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 1: I am what it says I am. I have what 31 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: it says I have. I can do what it says 32 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: I can do. Today I will be taught the word 33 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: of God. I boldly confess. My mind is alert, my 34 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 1: heart is receptive. I will never be the same. In 35 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: Jesus's name, God bless you. I want to talk to 36 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: you today about living breakthrough minded. A breakthrough is a 37 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: sudden burst of God's favor. 38 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 3: It's an explosion of his goodness. 39 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: It's when all of a sudden, God releases his power in 40 00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: such a way that you're overwhelmed. Maybe you've been praying 41 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 1: about a child for years and suddenly they get back 42 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: on the right course. That's a breakthrough. Or you were 43 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 1: trying to get in a certain college. They said they 44 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: were full, but all of a sudden they called back 45 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 1: and say they have room for you another breakthrough, perhaps 46 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: in your finances. You've struggled for a long time, then 47 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: you get a good break, you get promoted. Now it's 48 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: not a struggle anymore. Those are all breakthroughs. It's like 49 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 1: a flood of God's power where you look up and think, 50 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 1: I'm overwhelmed by God's goodness. I had a lady tell 51 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: me last week how she was in town at the 52 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: cancer center. Earlier, she had gotten very bad news concerning 53 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: her health. It looked like her world was crumbly. But 54 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 1: the doctors ran some more tests and they discovered she 55 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 1: didn't have what they originally thought she had. It was 56 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 1: something much more treatable. She was so relieved, so excited. 57 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 3: She said, Joel, I feel like I've been given a 58 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 3: new lease on life. That's the God we serve. 59 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: He's called the God of the breakthrough, And no matter 60 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: what you're facing, no matter how impossible it looks, know this, 61 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:11,640 Speaker 1: the God. 62 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 3: Of the breakthrough wants to visit your house. 63 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: You may have struggled in your finances for a long time, 64 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: but if you'll stay in faith, the God of the 65 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: breakthrough is coming your way. Your health may be going downhill, 66 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: but don't get discouraged. The God of the breakthrough can 67 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: breathe healing into your body. Your dreams may look impossible, 68 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: but right now, the God of the breakthrough is working 69 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: behind the scenes arranging things in your favor. 70 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 3: Here's the key. 71 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: We have to live breakthrough minded. We have to get 72 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 1: up each day and say, Father, I know you're the 73 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: God of the breakthrough, and even though I don't see away, 74 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: I know you have a way. So I'm expecting you 75 00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: to visit my house. I'm expecting you to overwhelmed me 76 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: with your goodness. I'm expecting a sudden explosion of your favor. 77 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: That's what it means to live breakthrough minded. You're expecting 78 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: God to show up and show out in amazing ways. 79 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:18,359 Speaker 1: One time David needed a breakthrough. He faced an impossible situation. 80 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: He and his men were up against this huge army, 81 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 1: the Philistines. They were greatly outnumbered, they had little or 82 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 1: no chance of winning. David asked God for help, and 83 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: God gave David the promise that he would go with 84 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: them and they would defeat that army. 85 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 3: So David and his men went out, and that's exactly 86 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:39,799 Speaker 3: what happened. 87 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: God gave them a great victory, and David was so 88 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 1: overwhelmed by it. He said, they're in First Chronicles fourteen, 89 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 1: verse eleven. God has broken through to my enemies, like 90 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: the bursting forth of water. He named the place bow parism. 91 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: Now our parism means the God of the Breakthrough. Notice 92 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: David likened God's power to the bursting forth of waters. 93 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 1: In other words, he described it as a flood. He 94 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: was saying, when the God of the breakthrough shows up 95 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 1: and releases his power, it will be like a flood 96 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 1: of his goodness, a flood of his favor, a flood 97 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: of healing, a flood of new opportunity. Think about how 98 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: powerful water is. Three or four feet of water can 99 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: pick up a huge car that weighs thousands of pounds 100 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,799 Speaker 1: and move it all around. I've seen on the news 101 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 1: in these big floods, whole houses floating down the river. 102 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: Nothing can stop the force of that water. Anything in 103 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 1: its way is moved out of its path. You may 104 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 1: have difficulties that look extremely large, obstacles that look impassable, 105 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: dreams that look unattainable. 106 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 3: But know this, when the God of the. 107 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:08,040 Speaker 1: Breakthrough releases a flood of his power, nothing can stop it. 108 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: That sickness may look big, but it's nothing for the 109 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: God of the breakthrough. It doesn't have a chance when 110 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 1: God releases a flood of his healing. 111 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 3: Your opponents may look powerful. 112 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:26,040 Speaker 1: They may be bigger, stronger, better equipped, better financed, but 113 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: they don't have a chance when God opens. 114 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 3: Up the floodgates of his favor. 115 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: You need to get ready. Not for a trickle, not 116 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 1: for a stream, not for a river. No, get ready 117 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: for a flood of God's favor, a tidal wave of 118 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: God's goodness, a. 119 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 3: Tsunomi of his increase. 120 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: Some of you are thinking trickle when God's got a 121 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 1: whole ocean to work with. You're thinking stream when God's 122 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: got a tidal wave. You've got to enlarge your vision. 123 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: Dare to stretch your faith. God wants to release his 124 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:05,279 Speaker 1: favor like a flood. He wants to overwhelm you with 125 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: his goodness. The scripture says in Isaiah, when the enemy 126 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: comes in like a flood, the spirit of God will 127 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: raise up a barrier. Several commentaries believe that the comma 128 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: was placed in the wrong position. Instead of saying when 129 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: the enemy comes in like a flood comma, they suggest 130 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: the comma should have been placed after the word end, 131 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 1: it would read when the enemy comes in comma like 132 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: a flood, the spirit of God raises up a barrier. 133 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: In other words, the emphasis on the flood has to 134 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: do with God's power and not the enemies. When you 135 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: face difficulties and situations that look impossible, if you will 136 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: stay in faith, the God of the Breakthrough says, like 137 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: a flood, you'll see his power. Like a flood, you'll 138 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: see his vindication the flood, God's favor will overtake you. Suddenly, 139 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: his blessings, his goodness will overwhelm you. That's what happened 140 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: to David in this passage when he defeated this great army. 141 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: He was so impressed by it he named the place 142 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: Boo Parism the God of the Breakthrough. 143 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 3: Now, anytime David and. 144 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: His men passed that city, they would say, remember that, 145 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: that's where the God of the Breakthrough showed up. That's 146 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: where God released his favor like a flood. 147 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 3: No doubt. 148 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: Even generations later, David's grandchildren, great grandchildren, when they passed 149 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: through that city, they say, oh, yeah, Granddaddy told us 150 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 1: about this place. This is where the God of the 151 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: Breakthrough gave them a great victory. This is where God 152 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: helped them defeat an enemy almost twice their size. Every 153 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: one of us should have some bel parisms. We should 154 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,679 Speaker 1: have places where we can look back and say, that's 155 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: where the God of the Breakthrough did something amazing. 156 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 3: In my life. 157 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: That's where God healed me. That's where God promoted me. 158 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: That's where God protected me. That's where the God of 159 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 1: the Breakthrough visited my house. When I drive up to 160 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: this beautiful facility each week, I know this is a 161 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 1: bowel parism. I can say this is where the God 162 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 1: of the Breakthrough released his favor like a flood and 163 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: gave us a beautiful facility, even though all the experts 164 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: said we didn't have a chance. Every time I see 165 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: my mother, I know that's another bowel parism. I can 166 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 1: say that's where the God of the Breakthrough released his. 167 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 3: Healing like a flood. 168 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: When I drive on the Loop over by the ship Channel, 169 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: I remember how years ago I lost control of my car. 170 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: It was raining extremely badly, and I begin to spend 171 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: around and around, crossing five lanes of traffic, and at 172 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 1: one point I looked up. I was going the wrong 173 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: direction and an eighteen wheeler was right in front of me. 174 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,839 Speaker 3: But that's where the God of the breakthrough released a. 175 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 1: Flood of his protection. God held back that truck. 176 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 3: Here. 177 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: I am alive and well today about parism in my life. 178 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 1: Every time I pass that place, I say, thank you 179 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 1: Lord for your protection. Every time I drive up to 180 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: this facility, thank you Lord for your favor. When I 181 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: see my mother, thank you Lord for your healing. There's 182 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: an old country song that says, let's give them something 183 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 1: to talk about. 184 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 3: Friends. God wants to give you something to talk about. 185 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 3: He wants to. 186 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: Overwhelm you in such a way that everywhere you go 187 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: you can tell your friends, your neighbors, your children, your 188 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 1: grandchildren about the great things God has done for you. 189 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: We are not supposed to drag through life defeated, discouraged. 190 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 1: I ain't never get any good breaks, Joel. I never 191 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 1: get promoted. My back's been hurting. 192 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 3: For three years. 193 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: I'll get over into faith if you'll start living breakthrough minded. 194 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 1: God promises he's going to show up and give you 195 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: something to talk about. Not long ago, this lady came 196 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: up to me, and she was so excited. Her family 197 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: member needed a series of surgeries. It was vital for 198 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 1: this family member to continue living a productive life. But 199 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 1: the problem was it was going to cost four hundred 200 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 1: thousand dollars and it was not covered by her insurance. 201 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,679 Speaker 1: She didn't have the funds. But this lady, month after month, 202 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: just kept praying, kept believing, trusting that the God of 203 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: the breakthrough would make a way. She didn't need a trickle, 204 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: she didn't need a stream, she didn't need a river. 205 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: She needed a flood of God's favor. And one day, 206 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: out of the blue, her employer called her in. She'd 207 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: worked for this company for nearly thirty years and she 208 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 1: didn't even know they knew about the situation, but they said, 209 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: you've been so good to our company. 210 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 3: You've been so faithful. 211 00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:01,199 Speaker 1: We've decided we are going to under right the surgeries 212 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: that your family member needs four hundred thousand dollars. What 213 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 1: was that, the God of the breakthrough releasing a tidal 214 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 1: wave of his favor. 215 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 3: Like a flood. 216 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 1: God's goodness came over her. Now everywhere she goes, she 217 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: can't keep quiet. She tells everyone what God has done 218 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: for her family. God gave her something to talk about. 219 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: He wants to do the same thing for each one 220 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:31,079 Speaker 1: of you. What are you expecting. What are you believing for? 221 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 3: Would you ever release your faith for something that big? 222 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: Or would you think, Joel, that never happened for me 223 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 1: four hundred thousand dollars. 224 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 3: I never get any good breaks. Besides, my boss doesn't 225 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 3: even like me. 226 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: Listen, it doesn't matter who likes you or who doesn't 227 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: like you. All that matters is God likes you. He 228 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: accepts you, He approves you. His favor surrounds you like 229 00:12:55,480 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 1: a shield. Promotion doesn't come from people, it from God. 230 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: And if you'll be bold enough to believe big, then 231 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: the God of the breakthrough can release a tidal wave 232 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: of his goodness, a tsunami of his favor in your life. 233 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,239 Speaker 1: Here's how David put it, Psalm one twelve. When darkness 234 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: overtakes the righteous light will come bursting in. At times 235 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 1: in life it may seem dark. You may not see 236 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: how it could ever work out. You don't have the funds, 237 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 1: The problems look insurmountable. 238 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,439 Speaker 3: But if you will stay breakthrough. 239 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 1: Minded, God promises the light will come bursting in. Notice 240 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: it's not gonna trickle in. It's not gonna barely get there. No, 241 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: like a flood, like the breaking forth of waters. It 242 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 1: will come bursting in. That means suddenly things will change 243 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: in your favor. Suddenly you get the break you need, 244 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 1: Suddenly your health turns around, Suddenly the problems resolved, Suddenly 245 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: a new door opens. 246 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 3: God likes to do. 247 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: Things suddenly when it's dark. Don't start complaining, don't get 248 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 1: all negative. Keep reminding yourself that the light is about 249 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 1: to come bursting in. 250 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 3: It may be today, may be. 251 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: Tomorrow, next week, next month, next year. But know this, 252 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: Suddenly things will change in your favor. But I've learned 253 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: when it's difficult things aren't going our way, that's when 254 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: it's the easiest to lose our joy, to lose our vision, 255 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 1: lose our enthusiasm, to not believe that things will ever 256 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: get better. We have to learn to do just the opposite. 257 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: Right in the midst of the challenge, God says that's 258 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 1: the time, more than ever, to expect a flood of 259 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: his favor, a flood of healing, a flood of vindication, 260 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: a flood of protection. Our attitude should be it may 261 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 1: be dark, but I know the God of the breakthrough 262 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: is about to turn it around. My child may be 263 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: off course, but I know the God of the breakthrough 264 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: is about to bring him back. Business may be slow, 265 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: but I'm expecting the God of the breakthrough to release 266 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: a flood of his favor, a flood of new clients, 267 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: a flood of new sels, a flood of promotion. When 268 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: it's difficult, don't get negative. You are in prime position 269 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 1: to see the light come bursting in. You're in prime 270 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: position for. 271 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 3: God to give you something to talk about. 272 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: I love the story that our children's pastor told not 273 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 1: long ago. Craig and Samantha have a son named Connor. 274 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 1: He's a very handsome, fun little boy. Connor has autism. 275 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 1: He's five years old and he's never spoken a full paragraph. Really, 276 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 1: he doesn't speak in complete sentences. He will speak phrases 277 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 1: here and there, maybe two or three four words together, 278 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 1: but nothing much more than that. 279 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,359 Speaker 3: Day after day, Craig. 280 00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: And Samantha just keeps speaking faith into Connor, telling him 281 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: that he's more than a conquer that he can do 282 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: all things through Christ. And every night at bedtime, either 283 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 1: Craig or Samantha will sit down and read two or 284 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 1: three books with little Connor, and then they'll pray together 285 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 1: go to bed. The other night, just as Samantha was 286 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 1: about to turn off the light in Connor's room. 287 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 3: She heard him start speaking. 288 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: He went on and on and on so clearly, so fluently. 289 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: She ran and got the video camera and captured the 290 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: first real paragraph that he had ever spoken. 291 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 3: Here's what he was saying. This is my Bible. 292 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 1: I am missus, I am, I have. 293 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 3: It's as I have. I can do this since I can. 294 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: To good night, I talk the world craft and. 295 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 3: The live is the word the hortest shepherd on a 296 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 3: never be said, and Jesus name Amen. 297 00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: That was his first real paragraph. 298 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 3: What was that? 299 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: That was the God of the breakthrough visiting their house. 300 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 3: Like a flood. 301 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: God's favor came on little Connor, a flood of healing, 302 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: a flood of restoration, a flood of wisdom. Now Craig 303 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:18,439 Speaker 1: and Samantha have another bowel parism. That's a night that 304 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 1: they will never forget. And even though little Connor still 305 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: doesn't speak perfectly clearly, yet they know he is well 306 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 1: on his way. What God started, he will finish. How 307 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 1: it happened is Craig and Samantha take the DVDs from 308 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: my messages home, and little Connor will put them in 309 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 1: and watch. They said that normally when he's looking at cartoons. 310 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 1: He'll only watch for five or ten minutes, but he'll 311 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 1: sit there all through the day and watch my whole 312 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 1: thirty minute message. 313 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 3: I told Craig later. 314 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,879 Speaker 1: When a five year old chooses me over Barney, I 315 00:17:55,960 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 1: know I have favor, but I love the fact that 316 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,679 Speaker 1: God gave them something to talk about. They were so 317 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,880 Speaker 1: excited about it. They tell everybody what God has done 318 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 1: for little Connor. It was dark, but the light came 319 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: bursting in. And whenever they're tempted to be discouraged, all. 320 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 3: They've got to do is go put that video in. 321 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 1: They can see the favor of God like a flood. 322 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 1: When I'm tempted to think that something's not going to 323 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 1: work out, it looks impossible. All I've got to do 324 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: is drive down here to our beautiful facility, and I'll 325 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 1: thank God you did it for us. 326 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 3: Once I know you can do it for us again. 327 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 1: Friends, God wants to release a flood of his power, 328 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 1: not a trickle, not a stream, not a river. We'll 329 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 1: get ready for a flood of favor, a flood of restoration, 330 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 1: a flood of healing, a flood of promotion. Some of 331 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 1: you are thinking too small you've settled where you are, 332 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 1: thinking that you've reached your limits. Your child will never 333 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,880 Speaker 1: get well, and you'll never accomplish your dreams. You'll never 334 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 1: overcome those obstacles. Now you need to get ready. I 335 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: can see something in your future through my eyes of faith. 336 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: I can see a title wave coming your way. It 337 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: is not a wave of defeat, a wave of discouragement, 338 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: a wave of more than the same. It's a wave 339 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: of God's favor, a wave of promotion, a wave of deliverance, 340 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: a wave of restoration. It's the God of the breakthrough, 341 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 1: releasing his favor like a flood, causing you to overcome 342 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:34,920 Speaker 1: obstacles that you thought were insurmountable, causing you to accomplish dreams. 343 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,400 Speaker 3: That you never thought possible. Dare to believe. 344 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:41,360 Speaker 1: If you think trickle, you're going to receive trickle. If 345 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 1: you think barely get by, then you're gonna barely get by. 346 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,719 Speaker 1: If you think that problem's too big, it will keep 347 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: you defeating. But if you will learn to think flood, 348 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: you will experience flood. If you think overflow, you'll experience overflow. 349 00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 1: If you'll dare think title wave, then God can least 350 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,360 Speaker 1: a tidal wave of his goodness in your life. This 351 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 1: is what Jesus said, According to your faith, it will 352 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: be done unto you. The other night, we were out 353 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 1: to dinner with our son, Jonathan. He's fourteen years old now, 354 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,439 Speaker 1: and when he went to order, he said to the waiter, 355 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 1: I would like a steak. The waiter asked him, do 356 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 1: you want a six ounce, a ten ounce or a 357 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 1: fourteen ounce. 358 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 3: Jonathan didn't think about it twice. 359 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 1: He didn't ask me if it was okay, He didn't 360 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 1: look at the menu to check the price. 361 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 3: He immediately said, I want the fourteen ounce. 362 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 1: When it comes to food, he's not expecting a trickle 363 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:40,400 Speaker 1: or a stream. 364 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 3: He's expecting a flood. 365 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 1: He not only has a big appetite, but he knows 366 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 1: who his father is. 367 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 3: He knows I want to be good to him. 368 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:55,400 Speaker 1: That's the way we need to be concerning our heavenly father. 369 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,719 Speaker 1: Don't have a small minded mentality. Don't have a narrow 370 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: limited vision. Some people act like they're inconveniencing God. They 371 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 1: don't think they can expect their dreams to come to pass. 372 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: If they can just barely get through life, that's good enough. 373 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: I don't expect to get out of this problem. God, 374 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 1: if you'll just help me to endure it. I don't 375 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 1: expect to ever meet someone and really. 376 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 3: Fall in love. 377 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 1: God, if you'll just help me to not be so lonely. No, 378 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: you're expecting a trickle when God's got a flood. You're 379 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 1: expecting six ounce when God's. 380 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:30,920 Speaker 3: Got fourteen ounces. 381 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:35,680 Speaker 1: You're thinking survived when God's thinking abundance. If you will 382 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: think bigger, God will act bigger. If you'll dare to 383 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 1: be bold and step up to the plate like Jonathan 384 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: and say, God, I know you control the whole universe. 385 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 3: I know you're longing to be good to me. 386 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 1: So I want to thank you for releasing a flood 387 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,400 Speaker 1: of your favor in my life. In other words, God, 388 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,880 Speaker 1: I want to thank you that my little Connor one 389 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 1: day will speak totally fluid me. God, I want to 390 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 1: thank you that I'll be totally free from this addiction, 391 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,919 Speaker 1: that I'll be totally healthy and hold that all my 392 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 1: dreams and desires you put in me will come to 393 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 1: pass when you release your faith in a big way 394 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: like that, in a fourteen ounce way. God doesn't say 395 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,359 Speaker 1: who do they think they are? The nerve of those people? 396 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 1: Don't they know they don't deserve it. Now, when you 397 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 1: talk like that, it brings a smile to God's face. 398 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: He says to the angels, listen to what they're saying. 399 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 1: They believe I can do great things. They believe I 400 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 1: can turn any situation around. They've got their trust and 401 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 1: confidence in me. So I'm not going to disappoint them. 402 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 1: Let me open up the windows of heaven and pour 403 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,119 Speaker 1: out a flood of favor, a flood of healing, a 404 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: flood of promotion, a flood of vindication. 405 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 3: The scripture says. 406 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: It is our faith that pleases God. If you want 407 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: God to smile down on you in a greater way, 408 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 1: dare to believe him for bigger things. Remember, my father 409 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,959 Speaker 1: told how when he first started ministering, he would travel 410 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 1: from town to town speaking at small auditoriums and small churches, 411 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 1: and back in those days it would have been the 412 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 1: nineteen fifties, he would carry all of his sound equipment 413 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 1: in the back of his car. When he got to 414 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 1: an auditorium, he would set it up and be ready 415 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 1: to go. This particular night, there were going to be 416 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 1: a couple one hundred people there. 417 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 3: It was a big deal. He was excited about it. 418 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: He was this up and coming young minister, and so 419 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: he got there a couple of hours early to make 420 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 1: sure he had plenty of. 421 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 3: Time to set up. 422 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: But in the midst of all the excitement, he accidentally 423 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,440 Speaker 1: locked his keys in the trunk of the car. He 424 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 1: knew he couldn't have his big service without that sound equipment. 425 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 1: So he and the other people there, many of them 426 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 1: he did not even know, They came over and tried 427 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:55,360 Speaker 1: to get the trunk of. 428 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 3: The car open. 429 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 1: They shook it, and they wiggled it and got some 430 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 1: coat hangers and some tools. They just could not get 431 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,919 Speaker 1: that trunk to open up. Time was running out. They 432 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 1: were way back in the country, didn't have time to 433 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: go get someone or to tow the car. 434 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,639 Speaker 3: It looked like his big evening was going to be ruined. 435 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,479 Speaker 1: And just when he was about to give up, it 436 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 1: dawned on him that he had not prayed about it yet. 437 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: One thing I can tell you about my father, he 438 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 1: was always very bold. 439 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 3: He would pray about anything. Growing up. 440 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 1: He would pray over the lawnmower, he would pray over 441 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:36,159 Speaker 1: the car radiator. One time our washing machine wasn't working. 442 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 1: I heard Daddy in there casting the devil out of 443 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: that thing. Kee was not ashamed to pray about anything, 444 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: so he announced to all those people that he was 445 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 1: going to pray that God would help him to open 446 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 1: up that trunk. They looked at him like he had 447 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 1: lost his mind. They begin to snicker and laugh. They said, 448 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: you've got to be kidding. 449 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,199 Speaker 3: You can't pray that God will help you open up 450 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 3: a trunk. He said, sure, I can. You have not 451 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 3: because you asked not. 452 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:05,919 Speaker 1: So my father went over there and put his hands 453 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: on the trunk and he said, Father, I know there 454 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 1: is nothing too difficult for you, and you know I 455 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 1: need this sound equipment to have this meeting tonight, So 456 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 1: I'm asking you to. 457 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 3: Somehow, some way help me to get this trunk open. 458 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 1: He began to shake it and rattle it more vigorously 459 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,639 Speaker 1: than ever, but it still would not open. As he 460 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: turned and walked away, the laughter and the snickering got 461 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,239 Speaker 1: a little bit louder. But all of a sudden they 462 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,880 Speaker 1: heard this pop. They all turned around, lo and behold, 463 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,919 Speaker 1: the trunk had popped open on its own, and just 464 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: like it was in slow motion, it began to rise 465 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 1: up toward the heavens, just like God was saying, just 466 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,479 Speaker 1: like God was saying, I told you I would do it. 467 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 3: I'm the God of the breakthrough. 468 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: Those other people nearly passed down from then on. They 469 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:02,360 Speaker 1: did anything my father asked. It was yes, sir, no, sir, 470 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 1: whatever you say, sir. That was a bowl parism in 471 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 1: my father's life. Here we are fifty years later, still 472 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 1: talking about it, but I don't believe it would have 473 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: happened if my father had not been living breakthrough minded. 474 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,400 Speaker 1: You may not need a trunk to pop open. Maybe 475 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 1: the doctors have told you there's nothing more. 476 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 3: They can do. 477 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,880 Speaker 1: Maybe it's a sickness trying to pull you down. Get 478 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,120 Speaker 1: ready for the God of the breakthrough to show up. 479 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 1: Maybe it's a relationship that needs to be restored. A 480 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,199 Speaker 1: family member this off course, start declaring the God of 481 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,919 Speaker 1: the breakthrough is turning it around like a flood. His 482 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 1: favor can overtake you like a flood. God can cause 483 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,640 Speaker 1: your employer to pay for the surgeries your family member 484 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,640 Speaker 1: needs like a flood. God can cause your little boy 485 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,880 Speaker 1: to start speaking clearly like a flood. God can cause 486 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: a trunk to supernaturally pop open. I'm asking you to 487 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 1: live breakthrough minded, and the good news is the God 488 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: of the breakthrough is about to visit your house.

Well, we never like to 493 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 3: close our. 494 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 1: Broadcast without giving you an opportunity to make Jesus the 495 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: Lord of your life. Would you pray with me? Just say, Lord, Jesus, 496 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 1: I repent of my sins. Come into my heart. I 497 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: make you my Lord and savior. Friends, if you prayed 498 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 1: that simple prayer, we believe you got born again.
