1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:04,360 Speaker 1: Let us pray a man's gift, maketh room for him, 2 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 1: and bringeth him before great men. Proverbs eighteen sixteen. Father, 3 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,200 Speaker 1: thank you for the unique gifts you have given to 4 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,439 Speaker 1: each one of your children. You've invested something different in 5 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,440 Speaker 1: each one of us. As I yield to your plans 6 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:23,319 Speaker 1: and purposes, you develop and perfect the message inside of 7 00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 1: each one of us. As that gift grows, when we 8 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 1: learned how to utilize it for your honor, you will 9 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 1: use it to bring us before great men. Joseph is 10 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: a perfect example. You gave him a dream that he 11 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,640 Speaker 1: had a glorious coat of many colors, and he saw 12 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 1: his brothers bowing down to him. It was then he 13 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 1: was trained and prepared in the school of hard knocks 14 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:49,639 Speaker 1: to build his character, to purify him to be trusted 15 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: with the greatest of his gifts. After accusations, imprisonment, and 16 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 1: repeated rejections, he was brought before the king and made 17 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 1: second in command to fare. His gifts were developed in 18 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 1: the midst of adversity, and his character was matured through hardships. 19 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 1: When he surrendered all hope to you and relinquished his 20 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: human pride, you opened the door and lifted him up 21 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: his character and gifting made room for him, and he 22 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:23,040 Speaker 1: saved Egypt from the famine. Teach me to humble myself 23 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: before you and yield to the school of your Holy Spirit. 24 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: Mature my character with wisdom, and develop my gifts that 25 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 1: bring honor to you and not my pride in Jesus name. 26 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 2: Amen. 27 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: Thank you for listening to today's daily prayer for more 28 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: inspiration and an incredible message from our feature pastor stay 29 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: tuned to pray dot COM's Sunday service. 30 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 2: Looking so great in their freking garb as well. Amen, 31 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 2: And we're grateful Pastor Anderson into all of these pastors 32 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 2: and ministers, these mothers, Amen to each of you. Is 33 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 2: just good to be in the house of the Lord 34 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 2: one more time. We started off with January Unstoppable, that 35 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 2: God is going to give us dreams that just won't die. 36 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 2: As we were looking at the life of Joseph, and 37 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 2: I want us to continue to look at the life 38 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 2: of Joseph, but I want us to take it to 39 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 2: the next level. Because what happens when God gives you 40 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 2: the dream, what happens when you reach the gold? How 41 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 2: do you now begin to pass it on to generations 42 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 2: coming after you. How do we now began to realize 43 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 2: our destiny? This blessed my soul, This bless my soul. 44 00:02:53,600 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 2: Some twenty years ago I married Amen, the Fosters, and 45 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 2: and and boy, there have been members there since. Well. 46 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 2: They was telling me that chance jump up right quick, chance, 47 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 2: you're still young, chance valedictorian of his graduating my school plan. 48 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 2: And and so how do you know, how do we 49 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 2: affect these generations coming after us to make sure that 50 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 2: they stay in school and study hard, and go on 51 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 2: often and then come back and be all that God 52 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 2: have called them to be. And so this month I 53 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 2: want to be looking at not only the dream that 54 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 2: wouldn't die, but I want to take it to the 55 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:45,559 Speaker 2: next level, the destiny that couldn't be denied, the destiny 56 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 2: that couldn't be denied. I must say I appreciate the 57 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 2: fact that Bard and Bates Amen are on stage with me. 58 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 2: Amen and Amen, that blesses my soul, That blesses my soul. 59 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 2: And so how do we create these destinies for this 60 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 2: upcoming generation? Genesis chapter fifty, Genesis chapter fifty and verse 61 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 2: fourteen through twenty one. Genesis chapter fifty and verse fourteen 62 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 2: through twenty one from the New Living Translation. If this 63 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 2: is your first time here at ground, if you're visiting 64 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 2: and you would like to follow along with us with 65 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 2: the notes, and you can always text the words BMBC. 66 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 2: If you text BMBC to three one nine ninety six, 67 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 2: the sermon notes will come right there to your phone. 68 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 2: But Genesis chapter fifty, beginning of verse fourteen. After burying Jacob, 69 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 2: Joseph returned to Egypt with his brothers and all who 70 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 2: had accompanied him to his father's burial. But now that 71 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 2: their father was dead, Joseph's brothers became fearful. Now Joseph 72 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 2: will show his anger and pay us back for all 73 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 2: the wrong we did to him, they said. So they 74 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 2: sent dis message to Joseph. Before your father died. He 75 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 2: instructed us to say to you, please forgive your brothers 76 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 2: for the rape wrong they did to you, for their 77 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 2: sin in treating you so cruelly. So we, the servants 78 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:12,679 Speaker 2: of God of your father, begged you to forgive our sin. 79 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:17,479 Speaker 2: When Joseph received the message, he broke down and wept them. 80 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,239 Speaker 2: His brothers came and threw themselves down before Joseph. Look, 81 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 2: we are your slaves, they said. But Joseph replied, don't 82 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 2: be afraid of me and my God that I can 83 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 2: punish you. You intended to harm me, but God intended 84 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 2: it all for good. He brought me to this position 85 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 2: so I could save the lives of many people. No, 86 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 2: don't be afraid. I will continue to take care of 87 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 2: you and your children. So he reassured them by speaking 88 00:05:55,520 --> 00:06:00,159 Speaker 2: kindly to them. Amen, if we're going to have that 89 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 2: destiny that cannot be denied, here's the first thing we 90 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 2: got to do, Brown this morning. Conquer the division. Conquer 91 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 2: the division? Amen? How big is your dream? How big 92 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:21,599 Speaker 2: is your dream?

Is your dream big enough 102 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 2: to care even formed the season? Saints who have helped 103 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:08,719 Speaker 2: to bring us to where we are right now. You see, 104 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 2: as we celebrate Black History months, y'all, I'm thankful that 105 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 2: there were those in our past who dreamed big dreams. 106 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 2: Their dreams were big enough until it affected the destiny. 107 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 2: And we are yet enjoying a better destiny even today 108 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 2: because of those who dreamed big. We said it last week, 109 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 2: we said it the other couple of weeks ago. Look, 110 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 2: I was not even born when doctor King gave his 111 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 2: life in nineteen sixty eight, and so many of us 112 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 2: brothers and sister we weren't alive during the Civil Rights movement. 113 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 2: Yet we are enjoying the doors that they opened. We 114 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 2: are enjoying the walls that they brought down. We are 115 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 2: enjoying the opportunities that they created, the faith that they embodied. 116 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 2: We are enjoying the wealth that they left behind. And 117 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 2: so here's what I want to share with all of 118 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 2: us this morning, Brown, is that, since God's purpose for 119 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 2: your life is to change the destiny of others, dream big, 120 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 2: but be even bigger. Since God's destiny for each one 121 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 2: of our lives, God has a purpose for us, and 122 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 2: it is a purpose that goes beyond just yourself God 123 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 2: wants you to impact those around you. God wants you 124 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 2: to change the destiny of somebody else. The only way 125 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 2: that can happen. Y'all, we got to dream big, but 126 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 2: we must be even a bigger person. Let me say 127 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 2: this way, Brown, God has not called you to be 128 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 2: just a dream chaser. He wants you to be a 129 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 2: destiny changer. He hasn't just called you to be a 130 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 2: dream chaser. When we were young and we have those dreams, 131 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 2: we set gold. We wanted to have this much at 132 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 2: this particular time. We wanted to drive this sa live there. 133 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 2: We set those gold. But I'm glad that I have 134 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 2: lived long enough until I realize it's not about me. 135 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 2: But how can God use me to impact of the individual? 136 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 2: And that's why I thank God for the dream that 137 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 2: wouldn't die. I thank God for speaking to Joseph early 138 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 2: on at seventeen and did not allow that dream to die. 139 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 2: But I thank God even more for the destiny that 140 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 2: couldn't be denied. God is going to use Joseph to 141 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 2: sustain his people. God is wanting to use Joseph to 142 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 2: really save an entire world. God is going to use 143 00:09:55,760 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 2: Joseph to make a change in the destiny those around him. 144 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 2: And how did he do it? Because Joseph dreamed big, 145 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 2: but was even a bigger person. So how do we 146 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 2: do it, Preacher? How do I do it now? How 147 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 2: do I make sure that not only am I impacting 148 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,839 Speaker 2: my life for those that are coming behind me. You 149 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 2: got the dream big dreams, but you got to be 150 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 2: even a bigger person. In your spare time, and your 151 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 2: spare time write it down right now. But in your 152 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 2: spare time, I want you to read Palms one twelve. 153 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 2: I want you to read Palms one twelve because it 154 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 2: talks about how blessed are those who fear the Lord 155 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 2: and delight in obeying his command. It talks about the 156 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 2: fact that God will impact you to be a blessing 157 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 2: to other folks, that even your children will be successful everywhere, 158 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 2: and this will be an entire generation of godly people 159 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 2: that will be blessed. And that's what I'm asking God 160 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 2: to do. God, give us some generation blessings. Give us 161 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 2: some blessings that go from our children, to our children's 162 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 2: children to our great grandchildren. God, we want to be 163 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:14,599 Speaker 2: the generation of those that are blessed. We want to 164 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 2: change the destiny of others. And so we start by 165 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,079 Speaker 2: being a bigger person. Three simple statements. I want to 166 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 2: give you this morning, Brown, and I'll let you go. 167 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:28,199 Speaker 2: First of all, you got to be bigger and show forgiveness. 168 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 2: You got to be bigger and show forgiveness. I called 169 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 2: this the payback to pay back. You gotta be bigger 170 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:38,080 Speaker 2: and show forgiveness if you're going to change the destiny 171 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 2: of those around you. Verse fifteen. Look what the Bible says. 172 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 2: Now that their father was dead, Joseph's brother became fearful. 173 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 2: Now Joseph will show his anger and pay us back 174 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 2: for all the wrong we did to him. Old brothers 175 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 2: and sister. They were scared, and rightly so. I mean 176 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 2: there had been exposed there, the hatred of their heart 177 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:08,439 Speaker 2: had been revealed. And now their only coveringt Daddy, what's 178 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:12,679 Speaker 2: dead and gone the boy. They said, Joseph's gonna show 179 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 2: enough get us now, he gonna let us have it. 180 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 2: Now we some goners now, And yet Joseph was the 181 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 2: bigger person and forgave them. I believe y'all. I think 182 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:30,559 Speaker 2: I can't prove it, but I think they were lying 183 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 2: to Joseph. They said, Daddy said you gotta be nice 184 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:38,319 Speaker 2: to us, please forgive us. And yet the Bible said 185 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 2: Joseph wept and he had so much forgiveness and compassion 186 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 2: for them. He was the bigger person. What is God 187 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 2: said to us this morning. If we want to conquer 188 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 2: the division, if we want to keep from being divided 189 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 2: and keep this stuff and settle all of this mess 190 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 2: that's going on, we need to let go of past 191 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 2: means we need to let go of past pain. Do 192 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 2: you not know? We can't make the future better if 193 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 2: we're still bitter about the past. And this is what 194 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 2: I love about Joseph. He's not holding on to what 195 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 2: they did to him in the past. He's not gonna 196 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 2: hold it over their head. He's not reminding them of 197 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 2: the fact that y'all sold me, y'all wanted to murder me. No, 198 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 2: Joseph was the bigger person, and he sold forgiveness. Oh 199 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 2: somebody today, brother, than so of somebody today. They lied 200 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 2: on you, They talked about you, they scandalized you, they 201 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 2: tried to sabotage your job. But I'm here to tell 202 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 2: you this morning, let go of the past pains, Let 203 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 2: go of the past pain. Despite all that they did 204 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 2: against you, God didn't allow it to overtake you. And 205 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:58,199 Speaker 2: you're still here. You're still alive. God has blessed you. 206 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 2: You're still successful. The song that said, what didn't kill 207 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 2: men made men strong? God? Why because God was on 208 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 2: my side? And so let go of the past pains. 209 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 2: You see what keep us divided at y'all, is we 210 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 2: keep remembering what folks did to us, and we want 211 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 2: to take them back. And yet Joseph said, no, I'm 212 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 2: gonna be the bigger person and forgive, but not only 213 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 2: be the bigger person and show forgiveness. If we want 214 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 2: to conquer these divisions and see the destiny, y'all, we 215 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 2: need to be the bigger person and see favor. Be 216 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 2: bigger and see favor. I call this the flashback. I 217 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 2: call this a flashback because look at verse twenty again, 218 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 2: Joseph is wanting to reply to them verse nineteen. Don't 219 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 2: be afraid of me, am I God that I can 220 00:14:55,120 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 2: punish you. You intended to harm me, But God, God 221 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 2: intended it all for good. He brought me to this 222 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 2: position so I could save the lives of many people. 223 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 2: Flashback fleshback. Joseph said, now, now, now, what you meant 224 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 2: to harm me. God took it and made it help me. 225 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 2: What you meant to destroy me actually has developed me. 226 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 2: What you meant to stop me, God took it, turned 227 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 2: it around and started something in me. What you did 228 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 2: as evil in me. For my life, God has worked 229 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 2: it out for my good. And Joseph said, not only 230 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 2: has God worked it out for my good, but God 231 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 2: has given me a better position so that I can 232 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 2: be a blessing to other individuals. And that's why I 233 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 2: call it a flashback. I called it flashback. Brothers and sister. 234 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 2: Nobody ever have a fleshback, and anybody ever think back 235 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 2: to where you come from, and you know that you 236 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 2: don't deserve where you are right now. You know you 237 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 2: shouldn't be here. I mean, you shouldn't have the jobs 238 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 2: you have, you shouldn't be wearing the clothes that you're wearing, 239 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 2: you shouldn't be living where you are living. And you 240 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 2: understand that it was nothing but the favor of God. 241 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 2: And so instead of walking around moping, instead of walking 242 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 2: around complaining, instead of walking around talking about what. 243 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 3: You don't have, you are able to be thankful to 244 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 3: God Almighty from his faith. 245 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 2: I thank God for the fleshback. I thank God for 246 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 2: the fleshback, because I've come to the point that I 247 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 2: reck lie that if I never had a problem, I 248 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 2: wouldn't know God is a problem solved. If I never 249 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 2: had mountains, I wouldn't know that God can give me 250 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 2: strip to climb mountains. If I never had some real use, 251 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 2: I wouldn't know that God can give me. 252 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 3: I prays all the trouble lot up, and so I 253 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 3: thank God for the faith that I'm Joe and right today. 254 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 2: And so we want to bring down these walls. We 255 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 2: want to bring down these walls of division, be able 256 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 2: to work together to make a change even and the 257 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 2: generation is coming behind us. Not only let go of 258 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 2: the past pains, but thank God for your present position. 259 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,640 Speaker 2: Thank God for your present position, Joseph said, He has 260 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 2: put me in this position to save the lives of 261 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 2: many people. Where you are right now is because God 262 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 2: has favored you. Don't don't, don't. Don't don't have her 263 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 2: think you got here by pulling yourself up by your 264 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:55,680 Speaker 2: own bootstraps. Don't don't you become so arrogant. Don't don't 265 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 2: don't get lifted up in pride, because let me tell 266 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 2: you something. You can be up today and down today. 267 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:06,919 Speaker 2: You can have it all today and have it all 268 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 2: taken away today. But you better stay humble. You better 269 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,639 Speaker 2: say thankful that what I have. He gave man, what 270 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 2: I know. He talked, Man, where I am? He broke man. 271 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 2: If it had not been for the God on my side, 272 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:28,439 Speaker 2: where would I be? But thank God for favor. Be bigger, 273 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 2: be bigger, and shore forgiveness. Be the bigger person. Am 274 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 2: see favor?

I called this to give back. I called 277 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 2: this to give back because look at what Joseph said 278 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 2: in verse one on one. No, don't be afraid. I 279 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 2: will continue to take care of you and your children. 280 00:18:55,240 --> 00:19:03,880 Speaker 2: So he reassured him by speaking kindly to them. Joseph said, 281 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 2: I'm going to give back. I'm want to give back. 282 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 2: I'm want to give back. And look, look, God's been 283 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 2: so kind to me that I want to take care 284 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:18,120 Speaker 2: of you and your children. Oh, talk about the heart 285 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:23,360 Speaker 2: of Joseph to love everybody, even the ones that had 286 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 2: done him wrong, the ones that had sold him out. 287 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 2: Talk about talk about the eyes of Joseph to see 288 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 2: the needs of other individuals even beyond his family, and 289 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 2: he was willing to give back to impact even the 290 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 2: nation of Egypt and the entire world talk about the 291 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 2: hands of Joseph, so strong and so generous until he says, 292 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 2: I want to take care of you and your children 293 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 2: and everybody else. This is how I know, This is 294 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:03,199 Speaker 2: why I know Joe so wasn't Baptist. I wish, I 295 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,399 Speaker 2: wish he was Baptist. I wish he was Baptist. I 296 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,199 Speaker 2: wish he was. But I gotta be honest with you. 297 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,399 Speaker 2: I know Baptist folks, aymen, after thirty one years, I 298 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 2: know Baptist folks. And the Bible says not only did 299 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:19,959 Speaker 2: Joe save this, but he reassured them by speaking kind 300 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 2: to them. That's why. That's that's that that that told 301 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:27,400 Speaker 2: me right there, because see some of us God blessed us. 302 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 2: And when Mama and Daddy got gone and it was 303 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 2: left in our hands, and and we came to some 304 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:35,919 Speaker 2: of them, some of the family members came to you. 305 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,679 Speaker 2: My mamma said, you need you need to let me 306 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 2: stay here. I'm gonna let you stay here. But let 307 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 2: me tell you something. If it wasn't for Mama, I 308 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 2: would put your sisself out on the street. You see, 309 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 2: we we wouldn't. Yeah, Joe, Joseph, No, no, no, no, 310 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:55,679 Speaker 2: I love you. I'm gonna take care of you. You 311 00:20:55,920 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 2: don't have to be worthy. Why it was because of 312 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 2: the fact that Joseph, and here's my last one. We 313 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 2: need to embrace our powerful purpose. See, Joseph understood something. 314 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 2: God has put me here, and my purpose now is 315 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 2: to change the destiny of those coming behind me. And 316 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 2: so I want to take care of the family. I 317 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 2: want to take care of the country. I want to 318 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 2: take care of the community because God has given me 319 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 2: a purpose that is beyond myself. Brown, I need all 320 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 2: of us to embrace our powerful purpose. You see. God 321 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 2: has not called us just to be consumers, but he 322 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,160 Speaker 2: wants us to be some producers. God has not called 323 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 2: us just to be takers. He wants us to be 324 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 2: the givers. God have not called us to be on 325 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 2: the receiving end. He wants us to be on the 326 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 2: releasing end. God has given us a powerful purpose, not 327 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 2: just to be the boerers, but to be the linen does. 328 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 2: God has given us the purpose not just to be 329 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 2: the students, but the professors, not just to be the voters, 330 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 2: but the mayors and the senators and the president. God said, 331 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 2: I put you on top. I have made you the 332 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 2: head and not the tale.

What 336 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 2: keeps us from moving ahead is because we keep fighting 337 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 2: and struggling among ourselves. We allow them the jealousy and 338 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,120 Speaker 2: the pride and the anger and what folks did to 339 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 2: us and said about us.

But God, 344 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 2: it's say him this morning, Be the bigger person. I 345 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 2: know you've been hurt.

Refuse 349 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:22,920 Speaker 2: to retaliate, reject the retribution, resist the revenge. I want 350 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 2: you to be the bigger person aboard. They ain't God, 351 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 2: I halt the hatred, stop trying to get even with 352 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 2: those that did you're wrong, and be the bigger person. 353 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 2: That's all what God is saying this morning. Brown, I 354 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:40,160 Speaker 2: got greater things for Brown Baptists. I know I've been 355 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 2: with y'all one hundred and thirty eight years, but I 356 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 2: got some more height that I'm trying to take y'all 357 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 2: more levels that I'm trying to take you higher too. 358 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 2: But Brown, in order to do that, we gotta conquer 359 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 2: the division. We got to stop the pettedness. We got 360 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 2: to stop the bigger in We got to stop fighting 361 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:02,360 Speaker 2: among us, say stop being jealous of this one. I'm 362 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,360 Speaker 2: jealous of that why? And we got to come together 363 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 2: on one accord. Because when we work together, when we 364 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 2: strive together, when we praying together, that's nothing would be 365 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 2: impossible for us to accomplish. That's why my heart is grieved, y'all. 366 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 2: That's what grieves my heart. Even when I look at America. 367 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:27,159 Speaker 2: God has blessed America with the land of the Free, 368 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 2: the home of the brig No matter where I travel 369 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 2: around the world, I'm thankful for America. And yet we 370 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 2: got two many Duncans and the elephants divided, fighting like 371 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 2: cats and dogs, and the very destiny of our nation 372 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 2: is at state. And God is something to saying. Somebody 373 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 2: need to be the bigger person. Somebody needs to be 374 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 2: the bigger person in your family, the bigger person on 375 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,679 Speaker 2: your street, the bigger person in your community. Oh, I 376 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 2: hear what you're saying, and Preacher, I'm tired of being 377 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 2: the bigger person. I'm tired of being the one always 378 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 2: to initiate reconciliation. I'm tired of turning the other cheek. 379 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,960 Speaker 2: I'm tired I'm letting folks walk on me like I'm 380 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 2: a done man. I'm tired of being some revolving door 381 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 2: for family members to come in and out. I'm just 382 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,640 Speaker 2: tired of being the bigger person. But can I tell 383 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:29,359 Speaker 2: you something, Brown, Why I'm not tired of being the 384 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 2: bigger person, Because my Jesus was the bigger person. He 385 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 2: didn't have to, y'all. But he left his home in Glory, 386 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:42,119 Speaker 2: came down to this world. He left the streets of gold, 387 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 2: and yet he came down where he said. Foxes have holes, 388 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 2: bears have nests, but the son of Man have nowhere 389 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,879 Speaker 2: to lay his head. I'm so glad he was the 390 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:58,679 Speaker 2: bigger person. He went around healing the sick, making the 391 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 2: lame to walk and the dawn to talk. He fed 392 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 2: the multitudes, He tried to help everybody that And yet 393 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 2: in the midst of his goodness, they lied on him. 394 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 2: They plodded against him, And one Thursday night they arrested 395 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 2: Jesus on trumped up chargers, put him on, tried, brought 396 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 2: in some lion witnesses and fried them on, and put 397 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 2: on the cross on his back. They led him up 398 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:35,919 Speaker 2: the count rip, and there on the cross Jesus was 399 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 2: the bigger person. Came to see Jesus hanging there on 400 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:45,440 Speaker 2: the cross. He never stole anything, but he got nails 401 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:49,199 Speaker 2: in his hands. He never lied to anybody there, but 402 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 2: he got a crown of thorns around his head. He 403 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:58,880 Speaker 2: never he never did anything wrong, but he got spikes 404 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 2: in his feet. And he died for your sinners. I 405 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 2: hear the folks saying, if you're really the son of God, 406 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 2: come down and save yourself. But oh, I'm so glad 407 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 2: he was the bigger person.
