No, that's who you're choosing to be. 40 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 4: That's not who you are. That may be how you 41 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 4: were raised, that's what you saw growing up, but that's 42 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 4: not how you have to stay.

I promise you we'll make you feel right 53 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 4: at home. I like to start with something funny, and 54 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 4: I heard about these four Catholic ladies. They were bragging 55 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 4: on their sons. The first one said, my son is 56 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 4: a priest. When he walks in the room, everyone calls 57 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 4: him father. The second one said, my son is a bishop. 58 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 4: When he walks in the room, everyone calls him your Grace. 59 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,799 Speaker 4: The third one said, my son is a cardinal. When 60 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 4: he walks in, everyone calls him your Eminence. The fourth 61 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:06,359 Speaker 4: lady said, my son is six foot three, has broad shoulders, 62 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 4: is incredibly handsome, and dresses impeccably well. When he walks 63 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 4: in the room, all the ladies say, oh my God, 64 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 4: say it like you mean it. This is my Bible. 65 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 4: I am what it says I am. I have what 66 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 4: it says I have. I can do what it says 67 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 4: I can do. Today I will be taught the word 68 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 4: of God. I boldly confess. My mind is alert, my 69 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 4: heart is receptive. I will never be the same. In Jesus' name, 70 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 4: God bless you. I want to talk to you today 71 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 4: about a fresh new attitude. Studies show that your attitude 72 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 4: can have a greater impact on your success than your IQ. 73 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 4: You can be extremely talented, have incredible potential, but if 74 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 4: you don't have the right attitude, it will keep you 75 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 4: from rising higher. And we spend all kinds of time 76 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 4: and money making sure the outside looks good, eating ripe, 77 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 4: working out, wearing the latest fashions, and that's all fine, 78 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 4: but too often we're not spending any time on the inside. 79 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 4: Nice clothes won't cover up a bad attitude. A pretty face, 80 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 4: perfect makeup won't hide being bitter on the inside. In 81 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 4: high school, this new girl moved into town and she 82 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 4: was very beautiful, very attractive, and I was shy, never 83 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 4: had the nerve to talk to her. But our senior 84 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 4: year we had a class together. The seating was assigned. 85 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 4: It just so happened. I was sitting right next to her. 86 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 4: I thought I had died and gone to heaven. And 87 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 4: the first time I sat by her, I turned just 88 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 4: being friendly and said hello, nothing more. She looked at 89 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 4: me like I had just insulted her, like she was 90 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 4: totally offended. She looked away and never said a word 91 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 4: to me the whole semester. She was beautiful on the outside, 92 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 4: but can I tell you she was ugly on the inside. 93 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 4: I never saw her the same way. A bad attitude 94 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 4: makes you unattractive. It overrides what's on the outside. It's 95 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 4: important to look good, to develop your skills, to get 96 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:28,359 Speaker 4: an education, but it's even more important to keep a 97 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 4: good attitude. Nobody wants to be around a sour, critical, 98 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 4: condescending person. Colossians three, in the Message translation, says, dress 99 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 4: in the wardrobe God picked out for you kindness, compassion, 100 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 4: and humility. As parents, sometimes we pick out clothes for 101 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 4: our children to wear. Our heavenly father has picked out 102 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 4: something for us all to wear. Kindness, being good to people, 103 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 4: being pleasant to be around. When you're kind, you draw 104 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 4: people to you. When your good natured, friendly, opportunity will 105 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 4: come your way. People want to do business with people 106 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:16,479 Speaker 4: that they like. When we're hiring someone, their resume tells 107 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 4: us what they can do, what their skills are, but 108 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 4: we always meet with them to see what their attitude is. 109 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 4: Are they positive? Are they friendly? Kind, considerate? We can 110 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 4: find someone else with the same skills. The real question 111 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 4: is do they have the attitude that's going to take 112 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 4: us higher. They may be gifted, but a negative attitude 113 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 4: will pull the team down. Your attitude is going to 114 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 4: determine your altitude. It will determine how high or how 115 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 4: low you go. Well, Joel, I've always been kind of negative, critical, condescending. 116 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 4: That's just who I am. No, that's who you're choosing 117 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 4: to be out who you are. That may be how 118 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 4: you were raised, that's what you saw growing up, but 119 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 4: that's not how you have to stay. Try being kind, friendly, 120 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 4: good natured. You'll not only enjoy life more, but you'll 121 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 4: go further. On an airplane, there's an instrument called an 122 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 4: attitude indicator. It shows how level the plane is on 123 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 4: the horizon, and if the pilot wants to ascend, he tilts. 124 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 4: The plane knows high. If he wants to descend, he tilts. 125 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 4: It knows down. It's the same principle in life. If 126 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 4: you have a nose high attitude, if you're positive, you 127 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 4: see the best, you're kind of people, you have a smile. 128 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 4: Because your nose high, you're going to continue to rise higher. 129 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 4: You're going to see God's blessings in favor. But if 130 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 4: you're sour, hard to get along with, you don't want 131 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 4: to go to work, bid over disappointments. Because you have 132 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 4: a nose down attitude, your life is going to go 133 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 4: that direction. And sometimes we're discouraged over what we brought 134 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 4: on ourselves. It's not the enemy, it's our attitude. The 135 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 4: good news is all you have to do is make 136 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 4: an attitude adjustment. It's not complicated. You can't change other people, 137 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 4: you can't change how you were raised. A lot in 138 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 4: life we can't control. But one thing we can all 139 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 4: control is our attitude. Am I going to live this 140 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 4: day negative, sour, seeing the wrong chip on my shoulder? 141 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 4: Or am I going to live it in faith, positive, hopeful, 142 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 4: seeing the best, being good to people. This is a 143 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 4: choice that we have to make every day. If you're 144 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 4: going to have a good attitude, you have to do 145 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 4: it on purpose because there will be all kinds of 146 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 4: negative things that try to creep in bitterness, discouragement, self pity. 147 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,559 Speaker 4: If you're not proactive, if you don't choose the right attitude, 148 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 4: then the wrong attitude will show up. When a pilot 149 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 4: makes a small tweak, the plane can be leveled, but 150 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 4: when he tilts it just a little nose high, in 151 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 4: a half an hour, the plane will have climbed thousands 152 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 4: of feet in the air. I wonder what would happen 153 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 4: in your life if you would make a small tweak. 154 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 4: Instead of going to work sour dreading the day, feeling unappreciated, 155 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 4: you would show up with a smile, grateful to have 156 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 4: the job, knowing that you're not working under people, You're 157 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 4: working under God, that he's keeping the records. That's what 158 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 4: allows God to change things. What would happen in your 159 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 4: marriage your relationships if you'd make a small attitude adjustment. 160 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 4: Instead of being contentious, hard to get along with, you'd 161 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 4: start being friendly, loving, respectful. Instead of saying harsh, critical words, 162 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 4: you'd start giving compliments, telling your spouse how much you 163 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 4: love them, how blessed you are to have them in 164 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 4: your life. Just a small adjustment, getting your attitude a 165 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 4: little higher. Watch those relationships begin to improve. Or maybe 166 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 4: you've had bad breaks. Life hasn't treated you fair, and 167 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 4: it's easy to get sour. Go around with the chip 168 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:36,559 Speaker 4: on our shoulder, focus on what's wrong. That's a nose 169 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 4: down attitude. You're choosing the direction you're going to go. 170 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 4: Why don't you tilt it a little nose high? Yes, 171 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 4: it was unfair, but I know God is my vindicator. 172 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 4: I know God is fighting my battles. God promised to 173 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 4: pay me back double for the unfair things that have happened. 174 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 4: You keep that up and you'll see God make up 175 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:02,599 Speaker 4: for the wrongs. That's what Joseph did. He was betrayed 176 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 4: by his family, falsely accused, put in prison for something 177 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 4: he didn't do. For years, he was mistreated. It wasn't fair, 178 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:16,079 Speaker 4: But you never read where Joseph complained, where he got bitter, 179 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 4: where he slacked off. Despite all the bad breaks, Joseph 180 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 4: kept a nose high attitude. Thirteen years later, God vindicated 181 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 4: him made him the Prime Minister of Egypt. What you're 182 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 4: facing may not be fair. People may not be treating 183 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 4: you right. It's a test. God wants to see what 184 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 4: are you going to do in the difficult times. Too 185 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 4: many people go nose down. Their attitude keeps them from 186 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 4: seeing justice and vindication. But if you'll do like Joseph 187 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 4: and stay nose high, keep doing the right thing, keep 188 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 4: being good to people when they're not being good to you, 189 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 4: keep that song of praise in your head heart. That's 190 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 4: not just being positive, that's an attitude of faith. That's 191 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 4: what allows God to show out in your life. And 192 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 4: the scripture says, put on a garment of praise for 193 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 4: a spirit of heaviness. A garment is like a coat. 194 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 4: But before you can put on a coat of praise, 195 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 4: you have to first take off a coat of heaviness. 196 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 4: And sometimes we wonder why we don't have joy, why 197 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 4: everything's a burden, why we don't have any passion. It's 198 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 4: because we're wearing the wrong coat, enjoying nothing good. As 199 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 4: in my future, I never get any breaks. Let me 200 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 4: give you a fashion tip. That code of heaviness doesn't 201 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 4: look good on you. That code of self pity is 202 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 4: way out of style. That code of bitterness, what you 203 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 4: didn't get, who left you, doesn't fit you anymore. It's 204 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 4: restricting you. You've stepped into a new season. Now do 205 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 4: your part. Take off the coat of heaviness and put 206 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 4: on a code of praise. Father. Thank you that your 207 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 4: plans for me are for good. Thank you that what 208 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,439 Speaker 4: you started in my life you're going to finish. Thank 209 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 4: you that I haven't seen my best days. If you're 210 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 4: going to go up like that airplane, you have to 211 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 4: get your nose up. You have to make an adjustment 212 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 4: in your attitude. You cannot have a defeated mentality and 213 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 4: live a victorious life. Paul said in Ephesians four, be 214 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 4: constantly renewed in the spirit of your mind, putting on 215 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 4: a fresh mental and spiritual attitude. He was saying, every 216 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 4: day we need to put on a fresh, new attitude. 217 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 4: You know why, yesterday's attitude will get old. If you 218 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 4: don't start afresh and anew, then you'll bring all the 219 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 4: negative from yesterday into today. If you do that week 220 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 4: after week, month after month, before long, you'll be negative, discourage, 221 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 4: finding fault. I can't stand my job, Joel. Traffic is 222 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 4: so bad, my house is too small. I'll never get well. 223 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 4: You know what, that is an old attitude. Some people 224 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,679 Speaker 4: have not put on a new attitude for years and years. 225 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 4: They wonder why everything's a burden. Why it's so heavy, 226 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 4: it's their attitude. Every morning, when you wake up, you 227 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 4: need to say, Father, thank you for this day. Thank 228 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 4: you that you woke me up, thank you that you 229 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 4: gave me air to breathe, thank you that you surrounded 230 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 4: me with favor. I'm grateful to be alive. I'm grateful 231 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 4: for my family. I'm grateful for opportunities. Lord, I'm gonna 232 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 4: live this day to the full. That's putting on a 233 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 4: fresh new attitude. You wipe the slate clean, You let 234 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 4: go of yesterday's disappointments, what didn't work out. You get 235 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 4: your mind going in the right direction. I'm going to 236 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 4: see the good to day. I'm going to be kind 237 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 4: to somebody. I'm going to stay in faith and enjoy 238 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 4: this day. Imagine if you wore the same clothes for 239 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 4: thirty years, never took them off, You didn't wash them, 240 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 4: didn't clean them. They would stink, they would be dirty. 241 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 4: Nobody'd want to be around you. That's what an old 242 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 4: attitude does. A stale attitude pushes people away. A sour 243 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 4: attitude will keep you from being promoted. A stinking attitude 244 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 4: will stop dreams from coming to pass. I knew this 245 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 4: man that was always finding fault with his employer. He 246 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 4: was constantly bucking the system and challenging the policies. The 247 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 4: management was very good to him. Other people in the 248 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 4: department they loved the company, but he always found something 249 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 4: to complain about. They had to be at work at 250 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 4: eight in the morning. They parked in a big garage 251 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 4: and had to walk. His attitude was as long as 252 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 4: he was on the property at eight, that he was 253 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 4: there on time. They couldn't do anything about it. Well, 254 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 4: nobody else thought that, but he kept doing it his way, 255 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 4: being contentious. Several years later he was let go. He 256 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 4: lost a prominent position. He went to work for another 257 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 4: company and did the same thing. He kept challenging the policies, 258 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 4: being hard to get along with. One day I heard 259 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 4: this man had not only been fired, but security was 260 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 4: escorting him out of the building. He wasn't even allowed 261 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 4: back on the property. What am I saying? A bad 262 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 4: attitude will follow you around. You can change jobs. Think 263 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 4: other people are the problem, but sometimes we have to 264 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 4: look inside and see if we're the problem. Do I 265 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 4: have a sour attitude? Am I being hard to get 266 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 4: along with? Am I focused on the negative? Being critical? 267 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 4: This man was talented, he was smart, had a big 268 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 4: future in front of him, but he lived knows down 269 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 4: his attitude took him in the wrong direction. It wasn't 270 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 4: something big. A simple adjustment and it would be a 271 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:20,920 Speaker 4: different story. He would be at another level. What direction 272 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 4: is your attitude taking you? In your marriage, in your relationships? 273 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 4: Are you kind, respectful, fun to be around? In your career? 274 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 4: Are you positive, being your best, helping others? Or do 275 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 4: you need to make an adjustment? Don't wait till it's 276 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 4: too late, till the relationship comes to an end, till 277 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 4: the company says they don't need you anymore. Make the 278 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 4: changes now. Get rid of anything you know that's holding 279 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 4: you back, being negative, finding fault. That old attitude doesn't 280 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,400 Speaker 4: smell good. It's going to taint you everywhere you go. 281 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,679 Speaker 4: This couple moved into a new neighborhood and one morning, 282 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:06,719 Speaker 4: while they were eating breakfast, the lady looked out the 283 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 4: window and saw her neighbor hanging the wash on the 284 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 4: line to drive, and she noticed the wash was so 285 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 4: dirty and so dingy. She said to her husband that 286 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 4: neighbor doesn't know how to wash. The clothes aren't clean. 287 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:25,199 Speaker 4: She must not even use detergent. Week after week she 288 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 4: looked out this window and saw the clothes and made 289 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 4: the same comments about how dirty the laundry was. One morning, 290 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 4: she looked out the window and the clothes were as 291 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:39,360 Speaker 4: clean and bright as could be. She couldn't believe it. 292 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 4: She called her husband in said, look, she finally learned 293 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 4: how to wash. I wonder what happened. The husband smiled 294 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 4: and said, honey, I got up early this morning and 295 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 4: cleaned our windows. The problem wasn't that the neighbor's laundry 296 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 4: was so dirty. The problem was the window the lady 297 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 4: was looking out was not clean. Many times, how dirty 298 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 4: our neighbor's clothes are depends on how clean our window is. 299 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 4: The scripture says, to the purer, all things are purer. 300 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 4: And if you're always finding fault, complaining about the traffic, 301 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 4: critical of your spouse, may I suggest your window is dirty. 302 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 4: The problem is not external, it's internal. You're looking through 303 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:36,160 Speaker 4: a tainted filter. At some point we have to look 304 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 4: in the mirror and say, maybe I'm the one that 305 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 4: needs to change. Maybe I've developed a habit of seeing 306 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 4: what's wrong rather than what's right. Maybe I've trained myself 307 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 4: to be negative disrespectful, hard to get along with. That's 308 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 4: why it's so important every morning to put on this 309 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 4: fresh new attitude. I'm excited about this day. I don't 310 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,160 Speaker 4: have to go to work. I get to go to work. 311 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 4: I'm grateful for this job. I'm not focusing on what's wrong. Lord, 312 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,719 Speaker 4: I want to thank you for what's right in my life. 313 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 4: You know what you're doing. You're cleaning your windows. Ninety 314 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 4: two year old man was moving into a senior's home. 315 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:19,199 Speaker 4: He could see images, but he was technically blind. His 316 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 4: wife of many years had just passed, and after waiting 317 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 4: in the lobby for some time, this young lady, a nurse, 318 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,919 Speaker 4: came to take him to his new room. As he 319 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 4: maneuvered his walker through the hallways, the nurse began to 320 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 4: describe his room in great detail. She said, it has 321 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 4: a beautiful window, a big couch, a nice desk area, 322 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 4: and right in the middle. He interrupted her and said, 323 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 4: I love it. I love it. I love it. She 324 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 4: kind of laughed and said, sir, we're not there yet. 325 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 4: You haven't seen the room. Hang on just a minute, 326 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,719 Speaker 4: he said, No. Whether I like my room or not 327 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 4: doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged. It depends 328 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 4: on how my mind is arranged, and I've already made 329 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 4: up my mind. I'm going to like it. That's the 330 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 4: way we should live. I've already made up my mind 331 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 4: to enjoy this day. I've already made up my mind 332 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 4: to have a blessed Your life is too short to 333 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:25,959 Speaker 4: live negative sour, letting circumstances dictate our attitude. Every morning, 334 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 4: you need to make the decision this is another day 335 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,439 Speaker 4: the Lord has made. I'm going to live it in faith. 336 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,120 Speaker 4: I'm going to be positive. I'm going to see the best. 337 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 4: I'm going to make the most of this day. Well, Joel, 338 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,399 Speaker 4: I'm discouraged because I've had bad breaks. I had a 339 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:47,199 Speaker 4: rough childhood, a friend walked out of a relationship, I 340 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 4: went through an illness. We can all find a reason 341 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,919 Speaker 4: to live sour, to have a chip on our shoulders. 342 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 4: You have to learn to let things go. What's happened 343 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,880 Speaker 4: in your past cannot stay what God has in your future. 344 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 4: God wouldn't have allowed it if it was going to 345 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 4: keep you from your destiny. But if we go around discourage, 346 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 4: why did it happen? Why did this door close? That's 347 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 4: going to keep us from the new things God has 348 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 4: in store. The scripture says, the rain falls on the 349 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 4: just and the unjust. No one is exempt from difficulties. 350 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 4: But here's the key. If you'll stay in faith, that 351 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 4: setback is setting you up for God to show out 352 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 4: in your life. Instead of being sour, put on this 353 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 4: fresh new attitude. Father, you said you'd give me beauty 354 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 4: for these ashes. You said what was meant for harm, 355 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 4: you would turn to my advantage. So Lord, I want 356 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 4: to thank you that I'm not only coming out, but 357 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:52,120 Speaker 4: I'm going to come out better. In the scripture, Job 358 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 4: went through a great trial. Wasn't fair. He didn't do 359 00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:00,679 Speaker 4: anything wrong, but everything fell apart. First, he had a 360 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 4: bad attitude. He complained and was bitter, but he didn't 361 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 4: stay there. When it looked like he was done, like 362 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 4: there was no reason to have hope, he looked up 363 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 4: to the heavens and said, I know my redeemer lives. 364 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 4: He was saying, I know God is still on the throne. 365 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 4: I know he's bigger than what I'm facing. He put 366 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 4: on this fresh new attitude. If he would have stayed bitter, angry, discouraged, 367 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 4: we wouldn't be talking about him when it was all 368 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,919 Speaker 4: said and done. Joe came out with twice what he 369 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 4: had before. In difficult times, it's tempting to get sour. Joel, 370 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 4: I was doing the right thing, had this bad break, 371 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 4: this setback, came out of nowhere. You have to do 372 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 4: like job, put your foot down and say, I refuse 373 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 4: to go through life with a bad attitude. I am 374 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 4: not going to let what happened to me, who did 375 00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 4: me wrong, what I didn't get, keep me from becoming 376 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,919 Speaker 4: all I was created to be. God, I know you 377 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:07,199 Speaker 4: being for me is more than the world being against me. 378 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 4: That's what allows God to show out in your life. 379 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 4: But too often we're holding on to the hurts, disappointments, 380 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 4: the things we don't understand that poisons our attitude, steals 381 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:24,119 Speaker 4: our passion. You have to let it go. This is 382 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 4: a new day. The scripture talks about how God created 383 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 4: you to be like an eagle to soar. What's interesting 384 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:37,440 Speaker 4: is an eagle doesn't eat anything that's dead. Unlike other 385 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 4: animals that will eat a carcass, a coyote that will 386 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 4: eat a dead cow, an eagle only feeds off of 387 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 4: live foods. Swoops down to the ocean and picks up 388 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 4: a live fish. If you're going to be an eagle. 389 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 4: If you're going to soar, you can't go back to 390 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 4: the dead things in your life. Too many people are 391 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 4: feeding off of what didn't work, reliving the disappointments, the mistakes, 392 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 4: the bad breaks. When they wake up, first thing they 393 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 4: think about who hurt them, the people that did them wrong. 394 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 4: Quit feeding off that dead food. You can't put poison 395 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 4: into your spirit and live a victorious life. Let it go. 396 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 4: That's over and done. Now start feeding on live food. 397 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 4: You know what's a lie? You know the healthiest food 398 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 4: you can put in your spirit promises from the scripture. 399 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 4: I am blessed and I cannot be cursed. I will 400 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 4: live and not die, and declare the works of the Lord. 401 00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 4: Thanks me to God who always causes me to triumph. 402 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,160 Speaker 4: What are you feeding on? Pay attention to what you're 403 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 4: putting in your spirit. You're called to be an eagle, 404 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 4: but sometimes we're acting like a chicken. Do you know 405 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:58,400 Speaker 4: a chicken will eat its own waste. A chicken feeds 406 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 4: off of what's been discarded, off of what's supposed to 407 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 4: be trash. Maybe that's why chicken has wings, but it 408 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 4: can't really fly. It holds on to what it should 409 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 4: have released, and you need to view the negative things 410 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:16,719 Speaker 4: in your life as waste. No, God doesn't waste it, 411 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 4: but you're not supposed to feed on it. It's over, 412 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 4: you've been through it, you've eliminated it. Now move on. 413 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:28,640 Speaker 4: Don't go back to what you've released. If you're always 414 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 4: feeding off of what's been discarded, reliving old hurts, thinking 415 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 4: about what you've lost, that's going to keep you from flying. 416 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,400 Speaker 4: But God didn't give you wings so you can stay 417 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 4: on the ground. He didn't say you will mount up 418 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 4: like chickens. He called you an eagle. He created you 419 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 4: to soar. Don't let a wrong attitude keep you grounded. 420 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 4: My father had heart disease most of his life. He 421 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 4: struggled with his blood pressure, and he came from a 422 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:01,199 Speaker 4: family that had to fight that. When I was a teenager, 423 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 4: we used to go watch the Astros play baseball. Walking 424 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,360 Speaker 4: from the parking lot to the stadium, my father would 425 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 4: have to stop several times in rest. He was out 426 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,199 Speaker 4: of breath. It had been that way so long that 427 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 4: was normal to him. He eventually went to the doctor 428 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:21,360 Speaker 4: and then discovered the arteries to his heart were almost 429 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:25,679 Speaker 4: completely clogged. The doctor said he was only operating on 430 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 4: thirty percent of what he should be. He eventually had 431 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:33,439 Speaker 4: open heart surgery and they removed all the blockage. My 432 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 4: father was like a new man. He could walk from miles. Sometimes, 433 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:43,159 Speaker 4: like my father, our heart has become clogged, not physically, 434 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 4: but with the fence, with self pity, with discouragement. We 435 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 4: don't realize it, but we're only operating at a percentage 436 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:55,160 Speaker 4: of what we should be. We wonder why our marriage 437 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 4: is steal and while we're not passionate about our dreams, 438 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 4: there are contaminy. It's blocking the flow. We've allowed these 439 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 4: poisons to clog up the blessings, the joy, the ideas 440 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 4: that belong to us. The good news is you can 441 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 4: get back to who you were created to be. You 442 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 4: don't have to have a doctor. You can make these changes. 443 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 4: If you will get rid of the offense, the critical spirit, 444 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 4: the negative attitude, you'll get that spring back in your step. 445 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 4: You'll not only enjoy life more, but you'll see favor 446 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:35,920 Speaker 4: in greater ways. What could you be if your heart 447 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 4: was totally unclogged. How high could you fly if you 448 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 4: didn't have contaminants holding you back? It's time to find out, 449 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 4: Get up every morning. Start putting on this fresh new attitude. 450 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 4: This day is a gift from God. It is filled 451 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 4: with possibilities, new ideas, new friendships. I'm asking you, like 452 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 4: that airplane, to live knows how, focused on the good, 453 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 4: focused on the possibilities. If you'll do this, I believe 454 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 4: and declare you're about to lift off. New doors are 455 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 4: about to open. Freshness in your relationships, healing, promotion, new levels, 456 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:20,719 Speaker 4: the fullness of your destiny in Jesus' name, and if 457 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 4: you receive it, can you say amen? Today I'd like 458 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 4: to give you an opportunity to make Jesus the lord 459 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 4: of your life. Would you pray with me? Just say Lord, Jesus, 460 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 4: I'll repent of my sins. Come into my heart. I'll 461 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 4: make you my Lord and savior. Well, friends, if you 462 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 4: prayed that simple prayer, we believe you got born again. 463 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 4: Get in a good Bible based church, keep God first place. 464 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 4: Thanks so much for listening to today's message.
