1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,160 Speaker 1: Hi, this is Joel and Victoria. Thanks for listening to 2 00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:06,360 Speaker 1: our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry.

I like to 9 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 1: start with something funny, and I heard about this man 10 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,600 Speaker 1: named Bubba. He called nine to one one wanting help 11 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:33,720 Speaker 1: for his wife who had fallen and hurt herself. The 12 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:37,480 Speaker 1: nine one one operator asked for his address. He said, 13 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 1: we live at thirty three ten Eucalyptus Street. The operator 14 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: asked him to spell it. There was a long pause. 15 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,919 Speaker 1: Bubba said, how about we just meet you over on 16 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 1: Oak Street. Say it like you mean it. This is 17 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 1: my Bible. I am what it says I am. I 18 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: have what it says I have. I can do what 19 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: it says I can do. Today I will be taught 20 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: the word of God. I boldly confess my mind is alert, 21 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: my heart is receptive. I will never be the same. 22 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,959 Speaker 1: In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want to talk 23 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 1: to you today about it has to go back. We 24 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,680 Speaker 1: all have things that come against us in life that 25 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:22,399 Speaker 1: look permanent. A child, this off course, an addiction. We're 26 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 1: struggling with a health issue. It seems so big, so intimidating. 27 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: It's easy to be overcome and think that it will 28 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:35,399 Speaker 1: never turn around. But Isaiah said, no weapon formed against 29 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 1: you will prosper. He didn't say nothing would ever form. 30 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 1: We never have times where we feel outnumbered. It looks impossible. 31 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: God said, trouble may come, sickness may form, people may 32 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: do you wrong, but don't worry. It's not going to prosper. 33 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: That's not how your story ends. God has the final say. 34 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: He doesn't stop every difficulty it may come, but he 35 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 1: promises it's got to go back. It's not permanent. That 36 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 1: addiction is not going to hinder you your whole life. 37 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: It's got to go back. That sickness didn't come to stay, 38 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: it came to pass. It's got to go back. God 39 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: didn't create you to go through life overcome by problems, 40 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 1: burden down. When thoughts whisper, you'll never get well, never 41 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 1: break the addiction never get out of death. Just smile 42 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: and say no thanks. I know a secret. You have 43 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: to go back. Sickness. You can't stay in my body. 44 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,359 Speaker 1: I am a temple of the Most High God. You're 45 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 1: on foreign territory. You're not welcome here. You've got to 46 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: go back. If you're having trouble at work, people aren't fair. 47 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: You're not going to steal my joy, keep me from 48 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: my purpose. You've got to go back. Whatever is trying 49 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 1: to hold you down, whatever looks permanent in your imagination, 50 00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: you need to see it turning around, walking away from you, 51 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: getting smaller and smaller. Now all through the day, instead 52 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 1: of complaining, Father, thank you that it has to go back. 53 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: It may have formed, but Lord, thank you that it's 54 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: not going to prosper. God said in Jeremiah five, I 55 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: have placed the sand as the boundary for the sea, 56 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: an eternal decree, so it cannot go beyond. Though the 57 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: waves toss to and fro, they cannot prevail, though they roar, 58 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 1: they cannot pass over it. God put an eternal decree 59 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: in the sand. One translation says, an everlasting ordinance. You 60 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 1: could say God put his word in every grain of 61 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: sand that gives it the ability to keep the ocean 62 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: in its boundaries. That doesn't seem possible. The sand is tiny, 63 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: minute it's nothing compared to the vast ocean. The ocean 64 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 1: is massive and powerful, yet the tiny sand holds it 65 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: in place. Or because God put the decree in the sand. 66 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: I can imagine the sand and the ocean having a conversation. 67 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 1: The ocean says, little sand, do you really think you 68 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: can heap me in my boundary? I'm billions of times bigger, stronger, mightier. 69 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: You don't have a chance. The sand says, listen here, 70 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: mister ocean. You may have a loud roar, but you 71 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: don't intimidate me. It doesn't matter how small I am 72 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 1: or what I look like. You'll never be able to 73 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:34,479 Speaker 1: overpower me. Because Almighty God put his word in me. 74 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: There's an everlasting ordinance that says I can hold you back. 75 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 1: That makes the ocean so mad he begins to churn 76 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 1: and churn. A great storm comes, The water rushes past 77 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 1: the sand, way beyond its normal boundaries. The ocean begins 78 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 1: to laugh and laugh. I told you I could do it. 79 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: I told you I was more powerful than you that 80 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: you'll never contain me. But the lit sand is not worried. 81 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 1: He doesn't begin to complain God, what happened. I thought 82 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: you put a decree in me. I thought you gave 83 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: me your promise. No, all the grains of sand, like 84 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:15,159 Speaker 1: a big choir, begin to sing. You've got to go back. 85 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: You've got to go back. You've got to go back, 86 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 1: just like God promised. When the storm is over, the 87 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: ocean recedes and goes back to its normal boundaries. Not 88 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: because the sand was more powerful, but because God put 89 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: his decree in the sand. What you're up against may 90 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: look bigger, more powerful, but when you have God's word 91 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 1: in your heart, that's the everlasting ordinance. His word is 92 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: the decree that enables you to withstand storms that are stronger, 93 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 1: overcome enemies that are bigger, accomplish dreams that seem impossible. 94 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 1: When you go around declaring his promises, speaking what he 95 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 1: says about you, I can do all things through Christ. 96 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 1: I am blessed and cannot be cursed. I will live 97 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: and not die. Just like that sand, the creator of 98 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: the universe will push back forces of darkness. He won't 99 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: let that obstacle defeat you. It may go past its 100 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: boundaries temporarily. Don't get discouraged. Is got to go back now. 101 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: Make sure you do your part and keep God's word 102 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: in your heart. That's the everlasting decree. Any area that 103 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: you're struggling in, you need to find scriptures that you 104 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: can stand on. It's good to pray, it's good to 105 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: ask God to help you, but there's nothing more powerful 106 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: than saying what God says about you. Even when Jesus 107 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: was tempted by Satan in the desert, he said, it 108 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: is written each time he went back to the scripture 109 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,919 Speaker 1: and quoted what God said. When you're in difficult times, 110 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: don't just say what you feel, what you think, what 111 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 1: you want. Say what God says about your situation. The 112 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 1: scripture says God's word will not return void, it will 113 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: not be ineffective. When you have God's promises coming out 114 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: of your mouth, you can't be defeated when you go 115 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: around with what he said playing in your thoughts all day. 116 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: I'm blessed, I'm prosperous, I'm redeemed, I'm healthy, I'm a masterpiece. 117 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: I have the mind of Christ. I have peace that 118 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: passes understanding. I'm more than a conquer God always causes 119 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: me to triumph. My latter days will be better than 120 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: my former days. You are activating a power that will 121 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 1: take you where you can't go on your own. You 122 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: will overcome obstacles that look insurmountable. If you feel like 123 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: you're stuck in your career, you've reached your limit. Instead 124 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: of going around discouraged, get that eternal decree in your heart. Father, 125 00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: you said your favor surrounds me like a shield. You 126 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: said you're taking me from glory to glory. That the 127 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: path of the righteous gets brighter and brighter when you 128 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: agree with what God said. He'll open doors you couldn't open. 129 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: He'll do what medicine cannot do. You'll defeat enemies that 130 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: were much bigger. Jeremiah said, though the ocean roars, it 131 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: cannot cross its boundaries. You may have some thoughts that 132 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: are roaring in your mind, thoughts that are so loud, 133 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: telling you look at the medical report. You'll never get well. 134 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: You've been single all those years. You'll never meet the 135 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,839 Speaker 1: right person. This depression is permanent. You'll never be free. 136 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: The scripture says, the enemy goes about as a roaring lion. 137 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: He loves to roar, he loves to make loud threats, 138 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: loud accusations, trying to get you to live in fear, worried, 139 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: thinking that what you're up against is too big, too strong. 140 00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 1: Just accept it. Live defeated, live, addicted, depressed. Don't let 141 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: the rar fool you. He's all bark and no bite. 142 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 1: When God breathed life into you like that sand, he 143 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 1: put an eternal decree in you. He said, he will 144 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: always cause you to triumph. He said, when the enemy 145 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: comes against you, one way, he will defeat them and 146 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 1: cause them to flee seven different ways. When the enemy 147 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: roars at you, sometimes the best thing to do is 148 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 1: just ignore it, don't pay it any attention. But there 149 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: are times you need to roar back at him. When 150 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: those threats come loud in your thoughts, enter back boldly. 151 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: What God says, that thought roars, He'll never get over 152 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 1: this sickness. Roar back. I will live and not die. 153 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 1: The number of my days God will fulfill. When he roars, 154 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: you can't accomplish your dreams. You don't have the talent. 155 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: Roar back. Whatever I touch prospers and succeeds. Goodness and 156 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 1: mercy are following me. This anxiety, this depression is always 157 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 1: going to sour your life. There's no way you can overcome. 158 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: Don't let him have the last roar. There's nothing too 159 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: difficult for my God. What he started in my life, 160 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: he will finish. Though I am surrounded by trouble, I 161 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,679 Speaker 1: will know no fear. For God being for me is 162 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: more than the world being against me. I talked to 163 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: a young lady. She was in her mid twenties, and 164 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,320 Speaker 1: she was so concerned that she wasn't going to be 165 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: able to have a baby. Her mother had a difficult 166 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:35,319 Speaker 1: time getting pregnant. Her grandmother had trouble conceiving as well. 167 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: It had been in their family line for generations. It 168 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: seemed like it was going to be passed down to 169 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: her from the time she was a little girl. She 170 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: was afraid that she couldn't have children. And sometimes we 171 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 1: believe a lie early in life, and it's keeping us 172 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 1: from our destiny. She and her husband had tried to 173 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: have a baby for several years, but she couldn't conceive. 174 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: She took the fertility treatments, did what she could, but 175 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: still no success. She came down to the front for prayer, 176 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: very discouraged. I told her to find the scriptures about 177 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 1: having a child and start dwelling on them. The enemy 178 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: had been roaring in her thoughts for years. As long 179 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: as she let those lies play, it was going to 180 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: hold her back. It was her time to start roaring. 181 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 1: She began to declare what God said in Psalms. God 182 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: will make the baron woman a happy mother of children. God, 183 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 1: you said, the fruit of my womb is blessed. You said, 184 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: no good thing? Would you withhold? Because I walk up rightly? Lord, 185 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 1: thank you that my baby is on the way. When 186 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 1: you get the eternal decree on the inside, God will 187 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: make things happen that you couldn't make happen. Like the ocean, 188 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: infertility seemed so much bigger. The medical report said, you 189 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: can't have children. She was like the sand. It seemed impossible. 190 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: But the sand with the decree will push back the 191 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: mighty ocean. A few years later, she came down front 192 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 1: with a beautiful to your old daughter. She was so happy, 193 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 1: she said, God bless me with this child, and now 194 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: I'm pregnant with another baby. The enemy may be roaring 195 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: in your life. It's time that he hears you roar. 196 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: You need to start boldly declaring what God says about you. 197 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: When my father went to be with the Lord, and 198 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,239 Speaker 1: I stepped up to pastor the church. I had never ministered. 199 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 1: Thoughts roared Joe, you can't do this. Nobody's going to come. 200 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 1: You don't have the training, the experience. You're too quiet. 201 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: What's funny is most of that was true. In the 202 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: middle of the night. I would wake up and those 203 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 1: thoughts played so loud. The enemy will try to talk 204 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 1: you out of your destiny. I did what I'm asking 205 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 1: you to do. Every time he roared, I roared back, 206 00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: you can't do this. I can do all things. Sooe cry, 207 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 1: you don't have what it takes. I am fearfully and 208 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 1: wonderfully made. Joel, you're too quiet. I am strong in 209 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 1: the Lord. I am equipped, empowered, anointed. I have seeds 210 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: of greatness. I am well able to fulfill my destiny. 211 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 1: I am full of can do power. I started declaring 212 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 1: what God promised. His words have an eternal decree. I 213 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: felt like the sand. I was up against the ocean. 214 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: There were times it overtook me, but every time it 215 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: had to go back. Twenty years later, I can tell 216 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:39,559 Speaker 1: you God is faithful. He's taken me further than I've 217 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 1: ever dreamed. You may have things roaring in your life, 218 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: telling you what you can't become, how you never get 219 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: out of debt, never get free from that problem. Start 220 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: roaring back. The scripture says, give no place to the enemy. 221 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: Don't let him fill your mind with thoughts of defeat, 222 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 1: lack insecurity. Roar back, declear favor, declear strength, declear health, 223 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: declear victory. This is what my mother did. In nineteen 224 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 1: eighty one, she was diagnosed with terminal liver cancer and 225 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: given a few weeks to live. There was nothing more 226 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 1: doctors could do. She weighed only eighty nine pounds, Her 227 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 1: skin was very yellow. She looked like she wouldn't make 228 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 1: it much longer. But instead of giving up, she found 229 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 1: about forty passages of scripture that had to do with healing. 230 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: Her voice was very weak, but she would go around 231 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: the house saying, by his stripes, I am healed. I 232 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 1: will live and not die, and declare the works of 233 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: the Lord with long life. God will satisfy me. It 234 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: was barely even a whisper, but Jesus said in Mark four, 235 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: God's word is like a seed when it's sown in 236 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: our hearts. If we'll keep believing, keep thanking him for it. 237 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 1: Keep declaring it. It will grow and become what God promised. 238 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: In the natural we could hear that word cancer booming 239 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: out like thunder throughout the house. God's promises seemed so 240 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 1: small compared to what she was up against. But my 241 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: mother wasn't moved by the size of the ocean, so 242 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 1: to speak. She didn't get discouraged by the roar of 243 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: the waves and intimidated by the circumstances tossing her to 244 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 1: and fro. She just kept declaring what God said. Week 245 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: by week she got a little stronger. She would say 246 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: it with a little more power. By his stripes, I 247 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 1: am healed. It seemed like the enemy would roar back 248 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: even louder, with greater force. You're not healed. You have 249 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: terminal cancer. You'll be gone in a few weeks. Mother 250 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: wasn't moved by the roar. She knew the enemy is 251 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: like a roaring lion. He's not a lion. He doesn't 252 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: have any power over you. His only weapons are deceit 253 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: and lies. My mother kept water in that seed, thanking 254 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: God for what he promised. The seed kept growing. A 255 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: few months later, the tables had completely turned. Instead of 256 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 1: the word cancer booming out in our house, dominating our thoughts. 257 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 1: All we could hear was my mother's voice booming out, 258 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: I will live and not die. God is restoring health 259 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 1: back into me. Now, the word cancer was barely even 260 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 1: a whisper. The scripture says so mightily grew the word 261 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: of God and prevailed. When you get in agreement with 262 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: God and let his word grow, you speak his promises, 263 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 1: thank him for what he said. Then you will see 264 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 1: that eternal decree, that everlasting ordinance come to pass. His 265 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: word will prevail over sickness, prevail over addictions, prevail over 266 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 1: fear and depression. Like this, when things come against you, 267 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 1: you could live overwhelmed, think it's never going to work out. 268 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 1: You need to tell it. You've got to go back. 269 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 1: If you're facing a health issue, don't learn to live 270 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 1: with it. Tell the diabetes you've got to go back. Cancer, 271 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 1: you've got to go back. High blood pressure you may 272 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: have overtaken me for now, but you are not permanent. 273 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: You have no right to stay here. You've got to 274 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: go back. Well, Joel, the stock market being down has 275 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: cost me so much. This pandemic, not being able to work, 276 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,919 Speaker 1: it's going to sink me financially. No start telling it. 277 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 1: You've got to go back. Father, you said you would 278 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 1: open the windows of heaven pour out blessings that I 279 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,479 Speaker 1: can't contain. I know the economy is not my source, 280 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: but you are my source. You said even in famine, 281 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 1: I would have more than enough. You can't be passive 282 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 1: and reach your destiny. Tell the addiction, the alcohol, the nicotine. 283 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:02,679 Speaker 1: You've got to go go back. You controlled me long enough. 284 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 1: This is a new day whom the sun sets free, 285 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,879 Speaker 1: is free. Indeed, start telling the fear you've got to 286 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 1: go back. Anxiety, you're not welcome here. You've got to 287 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 1: go back. Maybe it's a child that's off course. Instead 288 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 1: of complaining about the trouble, you need to start speaking 289 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: to the trouble. Father, you said, as for me and 290 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 1: my house, we will serve the Lord that my children 291 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,639 Speaker 1: will be mighty in the land. Lord, I thank you 292 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: that every force that's trying to stop them has to 293 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: go back. If you'll get in agreement with God, start 294 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: declaring his promises, Like the ocean has to recede from 295 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 1: the sand, even though it's bigger and more powerful. Anything 296 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,360 Speaker 1: that's trying to keep you down will only be temporary. 297 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 1: It has to go back. I talked to a lady 298 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,640 Speaker 1: that struggled with depression for many years. She'd gone through 299 00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: some health issues and things weren't getting any better. The 300 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 1: enemy kept roaring, telling her that she had seen her 301 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:07,159 Speaker 1: best days. She didn't know any better. She believed those lies. 302 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 1: She fell into a very dark place. She was a mother, 303 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 1: but she couldn't take care of her children. She had 304 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 1: no desire to live, no passion. She was numb. When 305 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: she would go outside, it could be bright and sunny, 306 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: but for her everything was gray. She never saw blue sky, 307 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 1: never saw green grass, never saw a red bird. It 308 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:33,880 Speaker 1: was always gray. Depressing, a friend gave her a copy 309 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: of my book called I Declare. It has thirty one 310 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 1: promises from the Scripture to speak over your life. She 311 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 1: had never heard anything like that, and at first she 312 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: was too discouraged to read it. It sat on her 313 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 1: bedside table for months, But one night, at her lowest point, 314 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: when she didn't think she could go on, she opened 315 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 1: the book and started to read. It was like pouring 316 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 1: life back into her spirit. She couldn't put it down. 317 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 1: Every day she started declaring what God said about her. 318 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,639 Speaker 1: She began to memorize the promises, and she went around 319 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:13,880 Speaker 1: declaring health, declaring victory, declaring a bright future. She quit 320 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 1: believing that the depression was permanent. She always talked about 321 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 1: it as my depression, my illness. She stopped taking ownership 322 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 1: of it and started saying, this is what I'm dealing 323 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 1: with now, but it's not going to be here forever. 324 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 1: This too, shall pass. She was saying, in effect, you've 325 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 1: got to go back. You don't belong here. Little by 326 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 1: little things begin to turn around. She got her passion back. 327 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: She started smiling again. One day, she went outside and 328 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 1: for the first time in years, the sky was blue, 329 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 1: the grass was green. Color had returned. Today. She's happy, 330 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:57,920 Speaker 1: enjoying her children, living the victorious life that belongs to her. 331 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 1: When you get the sea of God's word down in 332 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: your heart, when you declare his promises, then you'll tap 333 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: into that eternal decree, that power that overrules anything that's 334 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:13,919 Speaker 1: trying to hold you back. The waves may overtake you. 335 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 1: At times, it feels like you're overwhelmed. What you're up 336 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 1: against seems so much bigger. Don't worry. It has to 337 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: go back. It's not permanent. It's not how your story ends. 338 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,679 Speaker 1: You may not see anything changing yet but God is 339 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 1: working behind the scenes. It's just a matter of time 340 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 1: before that trouble recedes, that depression lifts, that addiction is 341 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:42,880 Speaker 1: taken away. Like this, lady, your story doesn't end in defeat. 342 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: Don't take ownership of the problem. Start telling it. It's 343 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 1: got to go back. Something powerful happens when you speak 344 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 1: it out. Jesus said, if you have faith the size 345 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: of a grain of mustard seed, you can say to 346 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 1: this mountain, be rem mood, and it will move, and 347 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: nothing will be impossible to you. The mustard seed is 348 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 1: one of the smallest seeds. It's so tiny you can 349 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: barely grasp it in your hand. Yet God said, if 350 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 1: you just have mustard seed faith, if you just have 351 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: a little faith, you can speak to a huge mountain, 352 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 1: a huge obstacle, and it will be removed. It's the 353 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 1: same type illustration as that tiny grain of sand up 354 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: against the huge ocean. God is showing us that when 355 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: we're up against big challenges, when we're facing things that 356 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,400 Speaker 1: look impossible, it's not the size of our faith. It's 357 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,119 Speaker 1: not the size of what we have. It's what God 358 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 1: has put in the tiny seed. It's the everlasting ordinance 359 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 1: in the tiny grain of sand. How do we activate 360 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,439 Speaker 1: this mustard seed faith? How do we keep the ocean 361 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 1: from overtaking us by speaking to the mountain. It's with 362 00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 1: our words. If you will say to the mountain, be removed, 363 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: then God will make things happen that seem impossible. There 364 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,199 Speaker 1: may be a mountain in your life right now, a 365 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 1: mountain of debt, a mountain of fear, a mountain of addiction. 366 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 1: When there's a mountain, you can't see your future, it 367 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:20,439 Speaker 1: looks insurmountable. God used a mountain to let us know 368 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: when you have these big obstacles, things that should keep 369 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 1: you from your destiny, it's not the end. The mountain 370 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 1: looks permanent, seems like it could never change. The truth 371 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,160 Speaker 1: is you have what you need to move the mountain. 372 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: All it takes is mustard seed faith. That's the smallest 373 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: amount of faith. Now, instead of complaining about the mountain, 374 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 1: being depressed over the mountain, telling your friends how you'll 375 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:50,400 Speaker 1: never get past the mountain, why don't you start speaking 376 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 1: to the mountain. Tell that depression you cannot keep me 377 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: from my destiny. Tell the sickness you don't have the 378 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: final say, Tell that addiction you're not going to hold 379 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 1: me back. You have to move. There was a man 380 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: in the scripture named Zaruba Bell. He was in charge 381 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: of rebuilding the temple, but everything came against him. City 382 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:15,199 Speaker 1: leaders hired lawyers to try to stop him. They wouldn't 383 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: give him permits. Other people were causing trouble and strife. 384 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:22,439 Speaker 1: It looked impossible. He could have been discouraged, but he 385 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 1: understood this principle. He said, who are you, o, great 386 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: mountain that stands before me. You shall become a mere 387 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 1: mole hill, and I will finish the temple by shouting 388 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: grace to it. He was saying, I have this big 389 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 1: mountain in front of me, but I'm not worried. I 390 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 1: know it's going to be turned into a mole hill. 391 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: How was it going to happen? What was his secret? 392 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 1: By speaking grace to it? Another word for grace is favor. 393 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 1: His attitude was, yes, this obstacle is big, but I 394 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 1: have the favor of God. Mountain, you can't defeat me. 395 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:05,679 Speaker 1: I will accomplish what God put in my heart. He 396 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:09,360 Speaker 1: didn't talk about his mountain. He talked to his mountain. 397 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,639 Speaker 1: Against all odds, things fell into place and he completed 398 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:17,880 Speaker 1: the temple. I believe Today God is about to flatten 399 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,639 Speaker 1: out some mountains. Problems that look permanent are about to 400 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,920 Speaker 1: be turned into mole hills. No more sign of them, 401 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: Nothing stopping you, nothing keeping you from your destiny. Mountains 402 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:34,160 Speaker 1: of depression, mountains of insecurity, mountains of addictions. It may 403 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,440 Speaker 1: look like they could never change, but there's no mountain 404 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 1: God can't move, there's no wall he can't break through. 405 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: May not have happened yet, but this is a new day. 406 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,880 Speaker 1: God is doing a new thing. That set back isn't 407 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,879 Speaker 1: there to stop you. It's there to promote you. What 408 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:54,159 Speaker 1: God put in your heart will still come to pass. 409 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:58,440 Speaker 1: The dreams He's given you will still be completed. Now 410 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 1: do your part like Zorubabah well and start declaring favor. 411 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,439 Speaker 1: Start thanking God that you're coming out. Start talking like 412 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,640 Speaker 1: it's going to happen. As you keep God's word in 413 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 1: your heart. God promises it will prevail, not the sickness, 414 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 1: not the trouble, not the fear. You will be victorious. 415 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 1: When those thoughts come roaring in your mind telling you 416 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:24,199 Speaker 1: it's never going to work out, like the waves roaring 417 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: at the beach, don't believe those lies. Remember like that 418 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 1: sand you have the eternal decree in you. You have 419 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 1: his word. Now tell the ocean you've got to go back. 420 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 1: Sickness you've got to go back. Trouble you've got to 421 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 1: go back. Addictions, You've got to go back. If you 422 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 1: will do this, I believe and declare whatever has been 423 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: hindering you is about to go back. Mountains are about 424 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 1: to be flattened out. Problems that look permanent are about 425 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:58,360 Speaker 1: to resolve. Healing is coming, promotion is coming, freedom is coming, 426 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:03,160 Speaker 1: the fullness of your destiny in Jesus's name. Well, I'd 427 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,919 Speaker 1: like to give you an opportunity to make Jesus the 428 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 1: lord of your life. Would you pray with me? Just say, 429 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:14,919 Speaker 1: Lord Jesus, I repent of my sins. Come into my heart. 430 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 1: I make you my Lord and save you. If you 431 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: prayed that simple prayer, we believe you got born again. 432 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 1: I encourage you get into a good Bible based church. 433 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 1: Keep God first place. We all go through disappointments and 434 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,639 Speaker 1: things that are not fair. But God sees every hurt, 435 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,919 Speaker 1: every injustice, and He's promised to pay you back for 436 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 1: the unfair things.
