We'd love to have you be 11 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 1: a part of one of our services. I'd like to 12 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: start with something funny, and I heard about this man. 13 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 2: He was out walking on the beach. 14 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 1: God said, son, you've been so faithful, I'm gonna grant 15 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 1: you one special wish. 16 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 2: He was so excited. 17 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 1: He said, God, I've always wanted to go to Hawaii, 18 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 1: but I'm afraid to fly. So my wish is that 19 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:49,200 Speaker 1: you'd build me a bridge across the ocean. God says, son, 20 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,879 Speaker 1: that's impossible. Think of the logistics of that. Now take 21 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 1: a moment and wish again. The man thought about it 22 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 1: and said, okay, God, I've been married four times. All 23 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: my ex wives say I'm so insensitive, so my wish 24 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: is that I would be able. 25 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 2: To understand a woman. 26 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 1: I want to know why they think like they think, 27 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:09,639 Speaker 1: why they feel like they feel. 28 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 2: There was a long pause. 29 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,039 Speaker 1: God said, do you want two lanes or four lanes 30 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: on that bridge? This is my Bible. I am what 31 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: it says I am. I have what it says I have. 32 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 1: I can do what it says I can do. Today 33 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:27,040 Speaker 1: I will be taught the word of God. I'll boldly confess. 34 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: My mind is alert, my heart is receptive. I will 35 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: never be the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. 36 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: I want to talk to you today about tongue trouble. 37 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:40,759 Speaker 2: One thing that can keep. 38 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 1: Us from our destiny is our mouth. If we go 39 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: around saying negative things about ourself, our family, our future, 40 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: it will limit how high we can go. Things like 41 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 1: I'll never be successful. I'm not that talented. I can't 42 00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: break this addiction. It's flu season. I'll probably get it. 43 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 1: I've been through so much in the past, I don't 44 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: think I'll ever be happy again. Everything you're saying, you're 45 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: giving the right to come to pass. You are prophesying 46 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: your future. It's just like you're inviting that into your 47 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 1: life before you say it, make sure. 48 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 2: You want it. 49 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: I'm so lonely. I don't think I'll ever meet the 50 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: right person. You just invited more loneliness. Imagine you're sending 51 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 1: an invitation, loneliness, please come. 52 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 2: I'm so old, so wrinkled, I'll never. 53 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: Get back in shape. You're inviting more wrinkles, more fatigue, 54 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,079 Speaker 1: sending that invitation oldness. 55 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 2: You're welcome here. Well, it's going to be a rough year. 56 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 1: Man, with inflation, trouble at work, I'm having raising these kids. 57 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: You're inviting difficulties, hardships. Do yourself a favor, change your invitations. 58 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: Start sending out some new words. It's going to be 59 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: a great year. I'm surrounded by favor. I'm strong in 60 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: the Lord. 61 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 2: Goodness and mercy are chasing me. Get your words going 62 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 2: in the right direction. 63 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 1: You can't talk negative and have a positive life. You 64 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: can't talk defeat and live victoriously. You can't talk lack 65 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 1: and have abundance. Your words are setting the course for 66 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 1: your future. If you want to know what you're going 67 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: to be like five years from now, listen to what 68 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 1: you're saying about yourselves. I can't accomplish my dreams. I 69 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: don't have the connections. I'll never get well, the medical 70 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: reports not improving. I can't break this addiction. My children 71 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: will never get back on the right course. You know 72 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: what's limiting you, tongue trouble. If you have a negative mouth, 73 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: you're going to have a negative life. 74 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 2: Quit speaking defeat over your future. 75 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: I know people that are always saying negative things about themselves, 76 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: what they don't like, what they wish they had. I 77 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: played basketball with a young man at the Why for 78 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: many years. When I would see him, I would ask 79 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: how he is doing, just nonchalantly. He'd always say, I'm fine, 80 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: I'm just getting old and fat and bald. 81 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 2: I must have heard him say that hundreds of times. 82 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: Every time I saw him, we'd always laugh and not 83 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: think much about it. Well, I hadn't seen him in 84 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 1: twenty years. I ran into him at the mall. I 85 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: didn't recognize him. He said, don't you remember me? 86 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 2: I'm so and so. We used to play basketball together. 87 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 2: I couldn't believe it. He was old and fat and bald. 88 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 1: He did not look like the same person he had 89 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: prophesied it all those years. Be careful what you're inviting in. 90 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: I don't know about you, but I am good. 91 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 2: Looking, I have plenty of hair. 92 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: I am healthy, I am strong, I am vibrant. My 93 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: mind is full of wisdom. My youth is being renewed 94 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: like the eagles prophesy victory over your life. 95 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 2: You're going to talk about yourself, talk about the way 96 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:01,359 Speaker 2: you want to be. 97 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 1: Speak hell speak, vitality, speak abundance. Most of us would 98 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: never go up to another person and criticize them. You 99 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: wouldn't say to that person sitting next to you, man, 100 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: you don't look good today. That hairstyle is in the past, 101 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: and your personality is kind of dull. What were you 102 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 1: thinking when you put those clothes on. We may think 103 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: some things, but we would never say it. 104 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: We're not going to put them down. We're not going 105 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 2: to make them feel bad. 106 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: Sometimes we're better to other people than we are to ourselves. 107 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 1: Why are you criticizing yourself? Why are you talking so 108 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 1: badly about you? Why do you think it's okay to 109 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:45,479 Speaker 1: put yourself down, to find fault, verbalize all the things 110 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: you don't like. Why don't you be as respectful to 111 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: you as you are to others. 112 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 2: Let me encourage you. 113 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: Don't say another negative word about yourselves. You may think it, 114 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: but don't verbalize it. If you don't speak it out, 115 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: that thought will die stillborn. You won't give it light, 116 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: it won't become a reality. But when you go around 117 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: putting yourself down, I'm unattractive, I'm not that talented. 118 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 2: I don't have a good personality. That's pushing down all 119 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 2: the good. 120 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: Things God put in you. That will keep your personality 121 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:25,719 Speaker 1: from blossoming, your beauty from shining, your gifts from flourishing. 122 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: The scripture says, the tongue can nourish, and the tongue 123 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 1: can kill. Don't let the tongue kill your dreams, kill 124 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: your personality, kill your. 125 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 2: Self esteem, kill your value. Let it nourish your life. 126 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 2: You should be your best encourager. 127 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 1: You should compliment yourself more than you compliment anyone else. 128 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,359 Speaker 1: You should speak better of you than you do others. Now, 129 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 1: I don't mean be selfish or arrogant, but if you're 130 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: not positive towards yourself, you're not going to be your 131 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: best for the other piece God put in your life. 132 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,919 Speaker 1: The scripture says, love your neighbor as you love yourself. 133 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: You can't love others the way you're supposed to if 134 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: you don't first love yourself. It's not humility to put 135 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: yourself down, to speak less of you, to say. 136 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 2: Things that diminish, devalue lesson who you are. 137 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: I know some people that are always complimenting others, talking 138 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: about how beautiful their friend is, what a great personality 139 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: their brother has, how talented their coworker is. 140 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 2: And that's good. We should be. 141 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: Generous with our compliments. But when was the last time 142 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: you complimented yourself you thought about how great you are, 143 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: how talented you are, how kind you are. You don't 144 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: have to do this in front of others, but in 145 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: your private time, Lord, thank you that I'm gifted, I'm talented, 146 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: I'm smart, I'm attractive, I'm favored, I'm anointed. I have 147 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: a good personality that I'm fearfully and wonderfully made. In 148 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: the scripture, God told Jeremiah that he was going to 149 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: become a prophet, that he would speak to nations, that 150 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: he would do something great with his life. But Jeremiah 151 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: was very young. He didn't have the training, the experience. 152 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: No one in his family had done anything significant. All 153 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: these doubts and insecurities started to fill his mind. 154 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 2: He said, God, I can't speak to nations. 155 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: I'm too young. I wouldn't know what to say. You 156 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:34,839 Speaker 1: must have the wrong person. God answered back, Jeremiah, say 157 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: not that you're too young. He didn't say, don't think 158 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: you're too young. Don't believe you're too young. He said, 159 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 1: don't speak it out. Don't say negative things about yourself, Jeremiah. 160 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:49,599 Speaker 2: God was giving us this principle. 161 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 1: Don't give life to those doubts, those weaknesses, those insecurities. 162 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 1: God knew if Jeremiah would have gone around saying I'm 163 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:02,679 Speaker 1: too young, not tall enough, I'm not attractive enough, I 164 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 1: don't have the experience, if he would have been negative 165 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: toward himself, he would have missed his destiny. When you 166 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 1: start to criticize yourself, tell God what you're not, what 167 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 1: you don't have, what you can't do. God says to 168 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: you what he said to Jeremiah, say not zip that up. 169 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: Quit telling me what you think you're lacking. Quit talking 170 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: about how you're at a disadvantage. Friends, when God created you, 171 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: he put in you everything you need to fulfill your destiny. 172 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 1: He gave you the right looks, the right height, the 173 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 1: right personality. You have, the gifts, the confidence, the wisdom, 174 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 1: the favor. Now say not that you're too young. Say 175 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: not that you're not attractive enough. Say not that you 176 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: don't have the talent, Say not that you come from 177 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 1: the wrong family. Zip that up, and say what God 178 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,199 Speaker 1: says about you. I am well able, I'm a masterpiece. 179 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 1: I'm gifted, I'm valuable, I'm attractive, I'm competent, I'm creative. 180 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 2: I can do what. 181 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: God has called me to do. Don't go through life 182 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: cursing your future by speaking negative words over yourself. You 183 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:21,439 Speaker 1: have enough people in life against you. Don't be against yourself. 184 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: The enemy would love for you to go around feeling 185 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 1: wrong on the inside, like you're not up to par. 186 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: You're at a disadvantage, and too many people swallow that bait. 187 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:36,599 Speaker 1: Go around speaking defeat. I don't have a good personality. 188 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: I'm overweghed, I don't like my nose. I wish I 189 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 1: had more here less there. No, you've been made in 190 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:47,839 Speaker 1: the image of God. When you criticize yourself, you're criticizing 191 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: God's creations. You're saying God, you didn't do a very 192 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: good job on me. No, God wasn't having an off 193 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: day when he created you. 194 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 2: He calls you a masterpiece. 195 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: He put his dear you have royal blood flowing through 196 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 1: your veins. 197 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 2: Don't let tongue trouble keep you from becoming who you 198 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:09,200 Speaker 2: were created to be. 199 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: Proverb says we are snared by the words of our mouth. 200 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: Snared means trapped. It doesn't say we're trapped by our 201 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: thinking or trap by our circumstances, trap by the giant 202 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: that's in front of us. 203 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 2: What traps us is what we're saying. 204 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: Negative thoughts come to us all we can't stop them 205 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 1: from coming. 206 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,439 Speaker 2: The mistake we make is. 207 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: When we verbalize them, when we start speaking defeat, lack 208 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: and how big this obstacle is. I don't see how 209 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: it can turn around. You just gave life to the negative. 210 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 1: If you continue to speak. 211 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:47,559 Speaker 2: It, it will become a reality. 212 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: The key is when these negative thoughts come, don't verbalize them, 213 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,079 Speaker 1: don't speak them out, and those thoughts will die still born. 214 00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 1: They need words to come to life. Went out to 215 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: face Goliath. You can imagine the thoughts that came to 216 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: his mind. He's too big, he's twice my size. 217 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 2: I don't have any armor. This is impossible. 218 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 1: All these negative thoughts bombarded his mind. One thing that 219 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: made David a champion is he didn't speak them out. 220 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: If he would have had tongue trouble, we wouldn't be 221 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 1: talking about it. I know negative thoughts are going to come, 222 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: but the scripture says, put a watch over your mouth. 223 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: When you're in difficulties, up against giants, things that look impossible, 224 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 1: that's when it's easy to start talking defeat. How it's 225 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 1: not going to work out and the pandemic set me back. Inflation, 226 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: gas prices, I don't see how I'm gonna get ahead. 227 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 2: Zip that up. God's on the throne. He makes streams 228 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 2: in the desert. 229 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,839 Speaker 1: He said in famine, the righteous will have more than enough. 230 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:56,199 Speaker 2: There's not a. 231 00:12:56,240 --> 00:13:00,160 Speaker 1: Giant in your path that he can't bring down. All right, good, 232 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: He arms you with strength for every battle. One of 233 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 1: the best ways to change negative thinking is to start 234 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: talking positive. Every thought is telling you it's too big, 235 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: you don't have a chance. 236 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 2: It's been too long. 237 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: Your report should be I am well able, I will 238 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 1: defeat this giant. 239 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 2: I will accomplish my dreams. 240 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: God being for me is more than the world being 241 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 1: against me. When you go around speaking faith, speaking victory, 242 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 1: speaking hell, speaking abundance, negative thoughts cannot stay. Your words 243 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 1: will override what you're thinking. But the enemy would love 244 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: for us to verbalize the negative. 245 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 2: He knows when you speak it, he can bring it 246 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 2: to pass. 247 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: But when you turn it around and speak victory in 248 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: the face of defeat, health, in the face of sickness, abundance, 249 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: in the face of lack, Angels go to work. Forces 250 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 1: of darkness are broken, favor is released. God will do 251 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: what only he can do. This is what David did. 252 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: He looked at Goliath, this giant twice his size, and said, 253 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 1: you come against me with a sword and a shield. 254 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: But I come against you in the name of the Lord, 255 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: God of Israel. This day I will defeat you and 256 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: feed your head to the birds of the air. In 257 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: the midst of all those negative thoughts, negative circumstances, he 258 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: could have verbalized doubt, uncertainty, this is not possible. 259 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 2: But David knew this secret. He spoke victory. He said, 260 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 2: I am well able. I will defeat you. 261 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: I will fulfill my destiny in the face of difficulties. 262 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 2: That's what needs to be coming out of our mouth. 263 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 2: I will overcome this sickness, I will break this addiction. 264 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 2: I will see my family restored. 265 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: I will have a bountiful year when we were trying 266 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: to acquire this place, the former Compact Center. There were 267 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: many times I would wake up in the middle of 268 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 1: the night and thoughts would say, they're. 269 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 2: Never going to get it. 270 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 1: That company that's against you is way too big. The 271 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 1: city's never going to let a church have it. Besides, Joe, 272 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 1: you don't have the funds, the experience, the influence. We 273 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 1: can't stop negative thoughts from coming, but when you don't 274 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: speak them out. 275 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 2: They'll die still born. You're not giving them life. I 276 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 2: learn from David. 277 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: If I'm gonna prophesy anything, I'm gonna prophesy victory. See, 278 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: the enemy doesn't know what you're thinking. He can't read 279 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 1: your mind. He only knows what you're saying. What's coming 280 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: out of your mouth is telling him what you believe. 281 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 2: I felt doubt. I felt over my head like I 282 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 2: was outnumbered. But I knew. 283 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 1: Better than to let any of that come out of 284 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 1: my mouth. If you can't say anything good, zip it up. 285 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: Don't speak defeat over your life. Don't come into agreement. 286 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 2: With the negative. 287 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 1: Use your words to give life to your faith and 288 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: not your doubt. When those negative thoughts came, they roared, 289 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: It's never going to happen. The words that came out 290 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: of my mouth, Well, Lord, thank you that you're fighting 291 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: our battles, that you're making ways where we don't see away, 292 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: that you're causing the right people to be for us, 293 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: that you're opening doors that no person can shut. It 294 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 1: was a three year battle. God caused things to fall 295 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: into place. 296 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 2: Here we are today. 297 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 1: I don't believe this would have happened with negative words. 298 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: It's easy to talk about how big the problem is, 299 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: But how about talking about how big our God is. 300 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: How about prophesying victory, prophesy in favor, prophesy in abundance. 301 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 2: Don't be snared by the words of your mouth. 302 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 1: Don't let a negative report keep you from your destiny. 303 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: There are dreams God will put in your heart that 304 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: seem impossible. There will be giants on the way to 305 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 1: your destiny that are too big for you. 306 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 2: And a test that we all have to pass. Is 307 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 2: what are we saying it's not going to work out? 308 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: These giants are too big, sickness too great, the addiction 309 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 1: too powerful, or are we going to say, like David, 310 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: I will defeat them, I will get healthy, I will 311 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: break this addiction. I will set new standards for my family. 312 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: Don't be snared by your words, be propelled by your words. 313 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,199 Speaker 1: The key is to not say what you feel, not 314 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: say what you think, not say what it looks like, 315 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: say what God says about you. Pay attention to what 316 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: you're speaking. Are you suffering from tongue trouble? Are you 317 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 1: talking about the problem? What you don't have, what's not 318 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 1: going to work out? Your words are setting the direction 319 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: for your life. Ask yourself, is what I'm about to say? 320 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,400 Speaker 1: What I want to come into my life? I don't 321 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: see how I could ever get out of debt. 322 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 2: Zip that up. 323 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 1: You don't want struggle and lack. That's inviting the wrong things. 324 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 1: How about I will lend and not borrow. I live 325 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,479 Speaker 1: under the open windows of heaven. Father, thank you that 326 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: my cup runs over. I don't know, man, it looks 327 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 1: like this sickness will be the end of me. I'm 328 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 1: not improving at all. 329 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 2: Zip that up. 330 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 1: That tongue trouble will keep you from you healing. Turn 331 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 1: it around, father, Thank you that you're restoring health back 332 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 1: into me. That I'm getting better every day, That with 333 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 1: long life you will satisfy me. Well, Joel, we tried 334 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 1: to have a baby, but we weren't able to. 335 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 2: I guess it wasn't meant to be. Zip that up. 336 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: Father, you said in Psalms, you would make the bearing 337 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: woman a happy mother of children. 338 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 2: So Lord, thank you that my baby is on the way. 339 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 2: Before you see promises come. 340 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 1: To pass, there will always be these tests before you 341 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,440 Speaker 1: go into your promised land. There will be giants, things 342 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 1: that look impossible. One way our faith is released is 343 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: by what we're saying. 344 00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 2: If we're speaking. 345 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: Negative, doubtful, he's going to limit what God will do. 346 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 2: It's one of the best things you can do. 347 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: Speak faith when every thought is telling you it's never 348 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 1: going to work out. You've been through too much. You've 349 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 1: seen your best days. You can complain, talk about how 350 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,440 Speaker 1: bad it has been, or you can say, Father, thank 351 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 1: you that you have beauty for these ashes. 352 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 2: Lord, I thank you. What was meant for harm. 353 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: You're turning to my advantage. That's what causes God to 354 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 1: go to work. That's when you'll defeat giants. See compact 355 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 1: centers beat the cancer. The right people suddenly show up 356 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,919 Speaker 1: in the Book of Numbers. Moses had led the Israelites 357 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,160 Speaker 1: out of slavery and through the desert. Now they were 358 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 1: camped next door to the promised land. 359 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,920 Speaker 2: He sent twelve men in despite. 360 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: Out the land, and God had already promised he would 361 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 1: give them the victory. After forty days, ten of those 362 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: men came back with a negative report. They said, Moses, 363 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: we don't have a chance. There are giants in the land. 364 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: The people are too big, will never defeat them. There 365 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 1: were two other spies, Joshua and Caleb. They saw the 366 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,640 Speaker 1: same giants, same opposition, but they had a different report. 367 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 2: They said, Moses, we are well able. 368 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: Yes, the people are big, but we know our God 369 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: is bigger. Let us go in at once and take 370 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 1: this land. There were two reports, one of victory, one 371 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: of defeat. What's interesting is the negative report spread like 372 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 1: wildfire throughout the rest of the camp. Before long, all 373 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 1: two million of the Israelites were afraid, intimidated. They started complaining, said, Moses, 374 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,880 Speaker 1: why did you bring us out here to die? We're 375 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 1: never going to make it in. Let's just go back 376 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 1: to Egypt. Let's go back to being slaves here. God 377 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 1: had told them that they were going to go into 378 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 1: this land, that they were going to defeat these enemies. 379 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 1: Live in houses that they didn't build, eat from vineyards 380 00:20:58,560 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: that they didn't plant. 381 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 2: They had this great report of victory, then this other report. 382 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 2: You're not gonna make it. There's no way. Look at 383 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 2: how big the people are. 384 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 1: They could have come into agreement with Joshua and Caleb. 385 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,159 Speaker 2: Yes, let's go in. We know we are well able. 386 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 1: Instead, they let the doubt, the fear, the negativity dominate 387 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 1: their thoughts. 388 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 2: They made the mistake of speaking it we'll never get in. 389 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 2: We're going to die out here in the desert. 390 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: God answered them back something very significant in numbers fourteen. 391 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 1: He said, I will do exactly what I heard you say. 392 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 1: You will all die here in the desert. They didn't 393 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 1: realize they were prophesying their future. Unfortunately, they prophesied defeat. 394 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 1: If God were to do exactly what you're saying. 395 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 2: Would it be what you want? 396 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:59,880 Speaker 1: Are you speaking victory, speaking health, speaking abundance, freedom, new levels, 397 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 1: or you talking about how big the giants are and 398 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:05,959 Speaker 1: what you've been through in the past, how you can 399 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 1: accomplish your dreams. 400 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:09,159 Speaker 2: Can't get out of that dysfunction. 401 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: No, don't be like the ten spies, be like the two. 402 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: The majority are always going to complain, talk about the economy, 403 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,400 Speaker 1: what they can't do. You have to be in the minority, 404 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 1: be one of the twenty percent that say, yes, there's inflation, 405 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:28,399 Speaker 1: prices are high. 406 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 2: But I know I'm going to have a bountiful year. 407 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 2: God is supplying all of my needs. 408 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: Yes, there are some giants in my land dealing with 409 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: this sickness, this addiction, this trouble at work, but I 410 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: know I am well able, breakthroughs are coming. Favor is 411 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 1: on the way. What God started in my life, he 412 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: will finish. Don't let tongue trouble keep you out of 413 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: your promised land. In the nineteen nineties, there was a 414 00:22:56,280 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 1: star baseball player for the Houston Astros named Jose Lima. 415 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:03,400 Speaker 1: He was one of the best pitchers in the league. 416 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 1: One year, he won twenty games. 417 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 2: His future looked very. 418 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 1: Bright, but in March of two thousand, the Astros moved 419 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: from the Astrodome into their. 420 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 2: New ballpark downtown. 421 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 1: The fence in left field was much closer than in 422 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 1: the Astrodome. Of course, that favors the hitters and makes 423 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: it more difficult on the pitchers. The first time Jose 424 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: went to the new Paul Park, he stood on the 425 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,919 Speaker 1: pitchers mound and looked around. When he saw how close 426 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 1: the outfield fence was. The first words out of his mouth. 427 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 2: Were, I'll never be able to pitch in here. The 428 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 2: fence is way too close. 429 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,959 Speaker 1: The next season, he went from a twenty game winner 430 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 1: to a sixteen game loser. He prophesied his future, I 431 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 1: wonder how many times we've been snared by the words 432 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 1: of our mouth. I'll never get in that college. I 433 00:23:56,840 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: can't break this addiction. My husband will never change. I 434 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 1: don't think I'll ever get out of debt. You have 435 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 1: to zip that up. You're looking at it in the natural, 436 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 1: but God is supernatural. Don't cancel out the blessing, the favor, 437 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: the abundance, bus speaking defeat. 438 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 2: He's going to do what he hears you saying in 439 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 2: the scripture. 440 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 1: Have you ever heard of a man named Sether, a 441 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,680 Speaker 1: man named Gaddy, a man named Chaffithe. You've never heard 442 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 1: of them. You know why they were one of the 443 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:32,199 Speaker 1: ten s fives. They were called to be a history maker. 444 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 1: They had seeds of greatness. Deep down they knew they 445 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,399 Speaker 1: could take the land. But instead of overwriting the fear, 446 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:44,399 Speaker 1: the doubt, the intimidation, like Joshua and Calebs, speaking faith 447 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 1: and speaking victory, they chose to speak defeat. They chose 448 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: to verbalize the negative, to talk about how it could 449 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 1: never happen. They didn't know that God was listening to 450 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 1: what they were saying, that he was going to do 451 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:03,119 Speaker 1: exactly what they sa said. My challenge, don't be a sether, 452 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 1: don't be a gaddy, don't be a Chaffi, be a Joshua, 453 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 1: be a calib They said they would go into the 454 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:14,160 Speaker 1: Promised Land, and they were the only two that made 455 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:18,439 Speaker 1: it in. God did exactly what they said. Don't go 456 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 1: around talking to feed about the problem, how impossible it is. 457 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 2: Have a Joshua spirit, learn to speak victory. 458 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 1: You are prophesying your future, prophesy, healing, prophesy, abundance, prophesy, 459 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 1: new levels. 460 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 2: God is listening what he's hearing you say. He's going 461 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 2: to do. 462 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: Father, thank you, this is going to be a bountiful year. 463 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 1: God says, Angels, did you hear that? Go to work, 464 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 1: Bring some good brains, bring abundance, bring increase. Lord, thank 465 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,120 Speaker 1: you that as for me and my house, we will 466 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: serve the Lord. Think you that my children will be 467 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,679 Speaker 1: mighty in the land. God says, all right, let me 468 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 1: get that child back on course. Let me help that addiction. 469 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:04,439 Speaker 1: Let me free them from that dysfunction. Father, thank you 470 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: that I'm healed, that I'm whole, That this sickness is 471 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 1: not how my story ends. God says, all right, let 472 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:15,440 Speaker 1: me send healing restoration. Let me do what medicine cannot do. 473 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 1: Is tongue trouble keeping you from your destiny? Are your 474 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 1: words helping you? Are your words hindering you? Pay attention 475 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: to what you're saying. Don't let negative words keep you 476 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 1: wandering in the desert. 477 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 2: The promised land belongs to you. 478 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 1: If you'll put a watch over your mouth, zip up 479 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 1: the negative. Only speak positive, faith filled words. 480 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 2: I believe and declare. 481 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:45,640 Speaker 1: Like Joshua and Caleb, you will go into your promised 482 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 1: land see favor that you've never seen. Like David, you 483 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:53,959 Speaker 1: will defeat giants that are much bigger. Negative situations are 484 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 1: about to turn around. Healing breakthroughs the right people, the 485 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: fullness of your destiny in Jesus' name, If you receive it, 486 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: Can you say amen, I'd like to give you an 487 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:08,919 Speaker 1: opportunity to make. 488 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 2: Jesus the lord of your life. Would you pray with me? 489 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 1: Just say, Lord Jesus, I repent of my sins come 490 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:18,879 Speaker 1: into my heart. 491 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 2: I make you my Lord and Savior. 492 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 1: If you prayed that simple prayer, we believe you got 493 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 1: born again. 494 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 2: We'd love to send you some new information on your 495 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 2: walk with the Lord. 496 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: You can text the number or go to the website. 497 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 1: I hope you'll get into a good Bible based church 498 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 1: and keep God first place. 499 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 3: We all carry a mental picture of what our life 500 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:47,879 Speaker 3: can be.
