See. 30 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 4: God called us more than conquerors. We're not a slave 31 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 4: to circumstances. We're not captivated by our own thoughts, but 32 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 4: we can think the thoughts of Heaven. We can literally 33 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 4: think the thoughts of our champion, Jesus Christ. He says 34 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 4: that we are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus. You 35 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 4: know what, when I think of a conquer you know 36 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 4: what I think of I just picture this this ring 37 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 4: with two boxers in there, and I think about these 38 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 4: boxers and how they have those big old boxing gloves 39 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 4: on and they smack each other in the face. 40 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,359 Speaker 5: And you know what, they don't fall down. They keep 41 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 5: on at it. 42 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 4: They keep at it, They keep at it because they're champions. 43 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 4: They don't go into that ring thinking they're anything less 44 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 4: but a champion. 45 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 5: Now, if they get knocked down, have you ever watched. 46 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 4: Them, they bounce back up. See, champions have bounced back 47 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 4: in them. And God has called you a champion in 48 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 4: Jesus Christ, God has. 49 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 5: Said you have bounced back. 50 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 4: But how do we keep this mental bounce back? How 51 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 4: do we keep this emotional bank account full? 52 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 5: You see, just like you keep. 53 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 4: Money in your bank, you wouldn't think about writing to 54 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 4: check not having any money in your bank. So you 55 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 4: work to keep money in your bank. You check your 56 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 4: bank account. You make sure it's going to cover your life, 57 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 4: cover your bills, cover your children. Well, we have to 58 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 4: do the exact same thing with our emotional bank account. 59 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 4: We have to make sure we're covered. We have to 60 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 4: make sure we're strong. 61 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 6: See. 62 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 4: I think about those boxers, and you know what they have. 63 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 4: They have mental toughness. They have mental toughness. They don't 64 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 4: go in that ring as soon as they get hit 65 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 4: they think, oh that's it, I'm out, I'm done. No, 66 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 4: they have prepared their minds. They have got themselves in 67 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 4: a place where they know they are champions. And I 68 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 4: believe too often we're allowing ourself to sink below who 69 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 4: we really are, to not meet that standard of a champion. 70 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 5: Now, listen, God gave his. 71 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 4: Life for us through Jesus Christ, he gave his son, 72 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 4: so we have to attach ourself to that champion mentality. 73 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 5: The Bible says we are to. 74 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 4: Have the mind of Christ Jesus, so we're supposed to 75 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 4: attach our mind to the mind of Christ. 76 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 5: What is God saying about you today? 77 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 4: You need to take in about what are you thinking 78 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 4: about yourself? Are you thinking champion thoughts? Are you thinking 79 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 4: weak and defeated thoughts? You know, just like when you 80 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 4: have your car full of gas, it runs beautifully, but 81 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 4: when you start to get low and it starts to 82 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 4: run out of gas, it starts spittering and spattering, and 83 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 4: you think what is going on? You check the gas 84 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,799 Speaker 4: tank and you think I've run out of gas. See, 85 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 4: we too have indicators of when our emotional bank accounts 86 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 4: are low, and that is we get frustrated, We get upset. 87 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 4: Everything seems hard, seems like it's never going to change, 88 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:43,239 Speaker 4: it's always impossible. We don't enjoy the gifts that God 89 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 4: has given us because we're overwhelmed. That is how you 90 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,799 Speaker 4: can check your emotional bank account right there. 91 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 5: Are you enjoying the life that God gave you? 92 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 4: Are you acting like a champion, Are you overcoming the 93 00:04:58,560 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 4: punches of life? 94 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 5: Because the truth of the matter is, life is a 95 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 5: lot like that box. Are in a ring. 96 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 4: You're gonna get knocked out every now and then, You're 97 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 4: gonna get hit every now and then. Somebody's gonna offend 98 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 4: you every now and then. 99 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 5: But you have bounce back. 100 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 4: You have what it takes mental toughness. And I want 101 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 4: to encourage every one of us to take the time 102 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 4: to fill your mental bank account. You know, I love 103 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 4: my kids so much. My husband and my children are 104 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 4: the greatest gift that God's ever given me. They're my life. 105 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 4: I love them so much. I'll do anything for them. 106 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 4: I try to do everything for them. I bug them, 107 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 4: I get around them, I want to be around them. 108 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 5: My children say, you love me too much. Mom. I 109 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 5: love my husband. 110 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 4: I'd rather spend time with him bike riding or just 111 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 4: hanging out than anybody else. But if my emotional tank 112 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 4: is not filled, I cannot fill my family's tank. I 113 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 4: can't enjoy the gift that God's given me, the greatest 114 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 4: gift of all The Bible says it like this, love 115 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 4: your neighbor as you love yourself. 116 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 5: Can I ask you a question today? 117 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 4: How are you loving yourself? How are you taking care 118 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 4: of yourself? How are you building yourself up? You're a 119 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 4: three part bad You're a body, you're a soul, and 120 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 4: you're a spirit, and it's very important that those pieces 121 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,599 Speaker 4: go together. God has given you a regenerated spirit to 122 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 4: connect to his word, but he wants your mind to 123 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 4: be full of his word, anchoring you. 124 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 5: You're not supposed to be tossed to and fro. You're 125 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 5: not supposed to be blown like the seas of the shore. 126 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 5: One day up, one day down. One day you're happy, 127 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 5: one day you're not. You're not supposed to be like that. 128 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 4: God's given you strength, He's called you a conqueror. Listen, 129 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,919 Speaker 4: If we're gonna enjoy this life that Jesus came to 130 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 4: give us, the abundant life, we're gonna have to fill 131 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 4: our emotional buckets, our emotional tanks. You know, one of 132 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 4: the most spiritual things you can do is to fill 133 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 4: your emotional tank. Now, not everybody feels their emotional tank 134 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 4: the same way, but it's a very spiritual thing. To do, 135 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 4: because when you're facing the challenges of life, if you're 136 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 4: gonna come through unscathed, if you're gonna come through looking 137 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 4: like a conqueror, you're gonna have to get some mental toughness. 138 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 5: You're going to have to decide that God is. 139 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 4: For you and he's not against you, that you are 140 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 4: well able to do what He's called you to do. See, 141 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 4: there's nothing worse than being in bondage. Can you imagine 142 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 4: being tied up in bondage? See, that's what it was 143 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 4: like before Jesus. No, you know, there was not a grace, 144 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 4: a spiritual freedom like there is today. God loves you 145 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 4: and he wants you to walk in everything that He 146 00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 4: came to give you. Sometimes it's as simple as to 147 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 4: feel your spiritual account is to remind yourself that you're 148 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 4: God's masterpiece, that you're made in his image, with his character, 149 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 4: with his likeness, with his strength, that you're unique, that 150 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 4: He specifically designs you. You're not an accident. You didn't 151 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 4: just show up on planet Earth. But God has the 152 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 4: specifications on you. You're lacking nothing, You have everything to 153 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 4: accomplish what He's called you to accomplish. 154 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 5: You need to dwell on that. 155 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 4: Get that into your heart and mind, and don't compare 156 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 4: yourself with other people because the truth of the matter 157 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 4: is they don't have what you have because you're special, 158 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 4: You're unique, You're one of a kind. 159 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 6: You know. 160 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 4: I believe if you really want to have some mental strength, 161 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 4: you have to be your biggest cheerleader. You have to 162 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 4: be your biggest cheerleader. You can't wait for people to 163 00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,959 Speaker 4: validate you. You have to believe in yourself. Don't wait 164 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 4: around for someone to send you flowers. Send yourself some flowers. 165 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 4: We should get up every morning and we should make 166 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 4: declarations of faith.

See, there is a veneer. 189 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 4: It looks like a thick wall, but it's thin. It's 190 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 4: just a veneer, and. 191 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 5: You have to break through it.

We have 201 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 4: to get up and make these declarations of faith. We 202 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,959 Speaker 4: also need to decide that we're going to enjoy our life. 203 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 4: We're going to enjoy the peace and the joy of 204 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 4: the moment. How many of you just rush by life. 205 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 4: We all do rush through life, and we forget to 206 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 4: breathe in those beautiful moments when your child kisses your face, 207 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 4: when your husband tells you he loves you, When you 208 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 4: get that promotion, it's back to work.
