1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,160 Speaker 1: Hi, this is Joeln Victoria. 2 00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:05,279 Speaker 2: Thanks for listening to our podcast and thanks for supporting 3 00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:08,240 Speaker 2: the ministry. If you enjoy today's message, why don't you 4 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:11,039 Speaker 2: be a blessing and share it with a friend. Reappreciate 5 00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 2: you and pray for God's very best in your life. 6 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 2: God bless you, and thanks for spending this time with us. 7 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,160 Speaker 2: We are praying for God's very best for you and 8 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:23,280 Speaker 2: your family. But I like to start with something funny, 9 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,560 Speaker 2: and I heard about this minister that died. He was 10 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 2: standing at the pearly gates. The man in front of 11 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 2: him was dressed in a loud T shirt, sunglasses, and 12 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 2: blue jeans. Saint Peter asked him his name. He said, 13 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 2: I'm Joe Cohen, taxicab driver, New York City. Peter checked 14 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:44,279 Speaker 2: his list, handed him a gold staff and silk robe, 15 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 2: and said, welcome to Heaven. The minister stepped up said 16 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 2: I'm Reverend Joseph Snow, pastor of Saint Mary's Cathedral. Peter 17 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 2: checked his list and handed him a wooden staff and 18 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 2: cotton row. He said, wait a minute, this couldn't be right. 19 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 2: The taxicab driver got a gold staff and this is 20 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 2: all I get. Peter said, sir, up here, we work 21 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 2: by results. When you preached, people slept, but when he drove, 22 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 2: people prayed. Come on, say it like you mean it. 23 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,759 Speaker 2: This is my Bible. I am what it says I am. 24 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 2: I have what it says I have. I can do 25 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 2: what it says I can do. Today I will be 26 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,839 Speaker 2: taught the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind 27 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 2: is alert, my heart is receptive. I will never be 28 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 2: the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want 29 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 2: to talk to you today about your time is coming. 30 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 2: We all have things that were believing for a dream 31 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 2: to come to pass or problems to turn around. At 32 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 2: one time, we knew it was going to happen. We 33 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 2: stood in faith. But when it's been a long time 34 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 2: and we don't see anything improving, it's easy to get 35 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 2: discouraged and think that it wasn't meant to be. But 36 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 2: just because you've given up doesn't mean that God has 37 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 2: given up. God doesn't abort dreams. The delays, the detours, 38 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 2: the disappointments didn't stop God's plan. 39 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 1: What he started in your life. 40 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 2: He's going to finish. The scripture says what God has purposed, 41 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 2: who can annul it? It may seem like what you're 42 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 2: believing for could never come to pass. It's too late. 43 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 2: The odds are against you. God is saying your time 44 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:29,079 Speaker 2: is coming. He has not forgotten about you. He has 45 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 2: seen the lonely nights. He's seen the unfair situations, the 46 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 2: times you're doing the right thing and not getting the credit. 47 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 2: The illness isn't improving, the child isn't doing better. Voices 48 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 2: whisper it will never change. Don't believe those lies. Healing 49 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 2: is coming, promotion is coming, Freedom is coming. 50 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: God has already put it on the schedule. 51 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 2: The date has already been ordained. Psalm one O two 52 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 2: says there is a set time for favor. You keep 53 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 2: honoring God doing the right thing, and you're going to 54 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 2: come in to some of your set times, times that 55 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 2: God will show out in your life, times that you 56 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:13,080 Speaker 2: will see explosive blessings. You were struggling in your finances, 57 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 2: you didn't see how you could get ahead, and suddenly 58 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 2: you're promote it. Suddenly your business takes off, Suddenly you 59 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:23,399 Speaker 2: get that scholarship. The medical report says that you'll never 60 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 2: get well, but suddenly your health turns around. Suddenly you 61 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 2: break that addiction. Suddenly your child gets back on course. 62 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: What happened? 63 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 2: You came in to your set time. If you could 64 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 2: see what God has on your calendar, you wouldn't worry 65 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 2: about the clients you lost. You wouldn't lose sleep over 66 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 2: that family member. You wouldn't get discouraged over that legal situation. 67 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 1: You may have some obstacles that are not changing. 68 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 2: You're praying and believing, but instead of complaining, living. 69 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: Discourage all through the day. 70 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 2: Father, thank you that my time is coming. I'm not 71 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: moved by what I see. I'm moved what I know that. 72 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 2: You've already set the time to favor me, You've already 73 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 2: set the time to heal me. You've already set the 74 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 2: time to turn this around. Get your hopes up. 75 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: It's not too late. You didn't miss your chance. 76 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,839 Speaker 2: You wouldn't be alive if God didn't have something amazing 77 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 2: in your future. David was seventeen years old when the 78 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 2: prophet Samuel came to his house to choose one of 79 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 2: his father sons as the next king of Israel. David 80 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 2: had seven older brothers. They were bigger, taller, had more experience. 81 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 2: David's father, Jesse, didn't bother to bring David in from 82 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 2: the shepherd'svields. He thought David is not king material. He's 83 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 2: too small, too young, not as talented as his brothers. 84 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 2: Samuel looked at the other brothers and said, it's none 85 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 2: of these. Do you have another son, Jesse had David 86 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 2: come in. When Samuel saw him, he said, that's the 87 00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 2: next king of Israel. People by the outside, by your appearance, 88 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 2: your nationality, your education, but God looks at the heart. 89 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 2: Don't be discouraged if people write you off. Promotion doesn't 90 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 2: come from people, it comes from God. God sees you 91 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 2: have a heart after him. He sees your sincerity, your integrity, 92 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 2: your spirit of excellence. What's on the inside is more 93 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 2: powerful than what's on the outside. David was anointed to 94 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 2: be the next king, but he didn't go to the palace. 95 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 2: He went back to the shepherd's fields where he was 96 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 2: before and took care of his father's sheep. He was anointed. 97 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 2: Before he was appointed, he knew big things were in him. 98 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 2: He knew he was going to leave his mark. But 99 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 2: month after month he was stuck in the lonely shepherd's 100 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 2: fields doing what seemed like a menial job, feeding sheep, cleaning, 101 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,919 Speaker 2: up their waist, shoveling manure. He could have thought, God, 102 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 2: you said I would be the king. You had Samuel 103 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,919 Speaker 2: anoint me. Why am I still stuck out here? I 104 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 2: have so much more in me. But David understood this principle, 105 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 2: that his time was coming, that what God promised was 106 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 2: already on the schedule, that the date had already been said. 107 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 2: And even though David was doing a menial thing taking 108 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 2: care of sheep, he kept being his best. Nobody was 109 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 2: watching him. He didn't have a supervisor, he wasn't clocking in. 110 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 2: He could have slacked off, done just enough to get by, 111 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 2: but David went the extra mile to watch over those sheep. 112 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,719 Speaker 2: He fought off wild animals, kept them from harm, made 113 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 2: sure they had food and water. He had a spirit 114 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 2: of excellence because he proved to God he would be 115 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 2: faithful taking care of sheep. God trusted him to take 116 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 2: care of his people. And if you're not faithful in 117 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 2: the wilderness, how can God trust you to be faithful 118 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:57,599 Speaker 2: in the promised land? Like David, most of the time, 119 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 2: you will be anointed before you're appointed. You'll have the promise, 120 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 2: the dream, the calling, but you won't go straight to 121 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 2: the throne, you'll go back to the shepherd's field. How 122 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 2: you respond when you're anointed but not appointed will determine 123 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 2: whether you make it to the palace. You have to 124 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 2: be your best right where you are. 125 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: You may have bigger things in you. 126 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 2: You know you're going to lead that department, You're going 127 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 2: to teach that class, You're going to run that business. 128 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: The promise is in your heart. 129 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 2: You've been anointed, so to speak, but you're doing something 130 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 2: much smaller than what's in you. Will you give it 131 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 2: your all, even though you're overqualified for that position. Will 132 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 2: you serve others even though you have more experience than them. 133 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 2: If you'll pass the test of being faithful in the small, 134 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 2: then God will trust you with much. 135 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 1: Saul was the king of Israel. 136 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 2: He struggled with bouts of depression, and he had these 137 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 2: tormenting spirits that came against him. 138 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,040 Speaker 1: His staff told him that when. 139 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 2: These attacks came, he needed someone to play music and 140 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 2: it would help him feel better. Saul agreed and asked 141 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 2: them to find someone. They said, we know a young 142 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 2: man named David, the son of Jesse. He's excellent in 143 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 2: playing the heart. The scripture says Saul sent a message 144 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 2: to Jesse, saying, send me your son David the shepherd here. 145 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 2: David had been overlooked, felt like he was forgotten. People 146 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 2: discounted him. His father didn't believe in him. But now 147 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,319 Speaker 2: the king was asking for him by name. People don't 148 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 2: determine your destiny, and someone may have put you at 149 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 2: a disadvantage. You keep doing the right thing, and your 150 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 2: time is coming. Promotion will come calling your name. Opportunity 151 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 2: will come looking for you. The right people will come 152 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 2: tracking you down. God knows how to vindicate you. He 153 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 2: knows how to cause you to stand out. Imagine Jesse 154 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 2: hearing the knock on the door. He answers it and 155 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 2: it's the king's right hand men standing there, dressed in 156 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 2: their military uniforms, holding their armor. Jesse thought, what in 157 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 2: the world are they doing at my house? Am I 158 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 2: in trouble? Have I done something wrong? The main man 159 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 2: speaks up and says, King Saul wants your son David 160 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 2: to come serve him in the palace. Nobody in David's 161 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 2: family paid attention to him. They didn't give him any credit. 162 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:29,839 Speaker 2: But now the king was calling for David. I'm sure 163 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 2: Jesse nearly passed out word quickly spread throughout the neighborhood. 164 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 2: The King asked David to come work for him. Now 165 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 2: David is the talk of the town, esteemed, honored, looked 166 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 2: up to. In one moment, he went from the background 167 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 2: to the foreground, from being discounted to being admired. You 168 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 2: may have had unfair things happen. People left you out, 169 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 2: tried to discredit you. God saw what happened. He's keeping 170 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 2: the records. He hasn't for gotten about. You may seem 171 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 2: like you're falling behind. You could never reach your dreams. 172 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: Now it's too late. 173 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 2: You've been stuck out in the shepherd's fields for too long. 174 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: No, your time is coming. Keep doing the right thing 175 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: when the wrong thing is. 176 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 2: Happening, Keep being good to people that are not being 177 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 2: good to you. You're going to come in to one 178 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 2: of these set times. Will God catapult you ahead. Sometimes 179 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 2: God does things gradually, little by little, but there are 180 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 2: moments where God will thrust you twenty years ahead. 181 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,559 Speaker 1: He'll not only make up for lost time. 182 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 2: But he'll accelerate things. David went overnight from working in 183 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 2: the shepherd's fields, the lowest position, to working with the King, 184 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 2: the highest position. He didn't have to make it happen, 185 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 2: try to manipulate things, talk people into helping him. The 186 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 2: King sent for him life with David, You're going to 187 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 2: see opportunity that comes looking for you, that put you 188 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,679 Speaker 2: years down the road. You're gonna think, how did I 189 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:07,319 Speaker 2: get here? I didn't have the qualifications, I wasn't next 190 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 2: in line. This should have taken me my whole life. 191 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 2: But suddenly God is going to thrust you ahead. Get 192 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 2: ready for some set times of acceleration. Hebrews says, don't 193 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:24,079 Speaker 2: cast away your confidence, for it will be richly rewarded. 194 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 2: It's easy to hear this and think, Joel, this is 195 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 2: never going to happen for me. I've had a lot 196 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 2: of bad breaks. I have big obstacles in my path. 197 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 2: I'm way behind where I should be. That kind of 198 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 2: thinking is going to limit your life. That's casting away 199 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 2: your confidence. God is saying your time is coming. I'm 200 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,599 Speaker 2: about to do something unusual, something uncommon. 201 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: I'm going to thrust you ahead. 202 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 2: I'm going to free you from that addiction you've struggled 203 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 2: with for years. I'm going to vindicate you and pay 204 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 2: you back for the wrongs. I'm going to take you 205 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 2: from insignificant mediocre to influential and powerful. 206 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 1: Now you have to get in agreement with God. 207 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 2: If you'll start thanking him that your time is coming, 208 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 2: talking like it's going to happen, believing that it's on 209 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 2: the way. That's what it means, to not cast away 210 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 2: your confidence. When you do this, God promises it will 211 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 2: be richly rewarded. 212 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 1: Look at how good God is. 213 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 2: Not just rewarded, that would be fine, but God will 214 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 2: exceed your expectations. He'll make things happen that you didn't 215 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 2: see coming. Now, don't get talked out of your dreams. 216 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 2: You may feel like David, you're stuck out in the 217 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 2: shepherd's fields. Nobody pays attention to your gifts. You're in 218 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 2: prime position to be catapulted to a new level. People 219 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 2: may not pay attention, but God sees you. He's the 220 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 2: one that matters. He controls the universe. He's already scheduled. 221 00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 2: You're set times of favor, set times of healing, set 222 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 2: times of acceleration. There are moments in your future that 223 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,679 Speaker 2: are going to cause you to stand out, Moments that 224 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 2: will catapult you to a new level, Moments where fever 225 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 2: will come looking for you. There's a young man that 226 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 2: attends here. He had a dream to become a physician. 227 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 2: He graduated from. 228 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: College with honors. 229 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 2: He applied to forty medical schools, but only three contacted 230 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 2: him back. He interviewed with them, unfortunately he was turned down. 231 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 2: He was so disappointed. This was always what he wanted 232 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 2: to do. He'd put all of his time and energy 233 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 2: and focus into getting into medical school, but now that 234 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 2: door had closed and he didn't understand it. He had 235 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 2: worked so hard, but instead of being sour, he kept 236 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:50,079 Speaker 2: believing that his time was coming. He knew God didn't 237 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,200 Speaker 2: bring him this far to leave him. 238 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:54,119 Speaker 1: When things happen. 239 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 2: That aren't fair, you don't understand. You have to trust 240 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 2: that God is still in control and that he knows 241 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 2: what's best for you. 242 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 1: His ways are not our ways. 243 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 2: He doesn't always take us down the path that we thought. 244 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 2: There will be times that doors closed that don't make sense. 245 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 2: People that should be for us are not around. We're 246 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,320 Speaker 2: doing the right thing, but the wrong thing keeps happening. 247 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 2: None of this is a surprise to God. He's already 248 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 2: lined up the breaks you need, the open doors, the 249 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 2: right people, the healing, the baby. It's already on your schedule. 250 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 2: This young man attended a seminar for students wanting to 251 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 2: get into medical school. One option they mentioned was working 252 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 2: for the Armed Services. When he heard that, something ignited 253 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 2: on the inside he knew that's what he wanted to do. 254 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 2: He met a gentleman there that took an interest in 255 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 2: him and went out of his way to put in 256 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 2: a good word for him. Recently, this young man received 257 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 2: the news that he was accepted into the Armed Forces 258 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 2: medical school. He would not only receive a full scholarship, 259 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 2: not have any cost for his medical education, but that 260 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 2: he would be paid a very substantial salary while he 261 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 2: attended college. What happened He came in to one of 262 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 2: his set times. If God had not closed those other doors, 263 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 2: if a school would have accepted him earlier, he would 264 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 2: have never seen this opportunity. 265 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 1: That was more than he could imagine. 266 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 2: He never dreamed he would come out of medical school 267 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 2: with no debt being paid the whole time someone would 268 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 2: have paid me, I would have stayed in college. If 269 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 2: you want cast away your confidence, God will richly reward you. 270 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 2: You may have gone through some disappointments. Things didn't turn 271 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 2: out the way you hope. You don't know what God 272 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 2: is up to the reason he closed those other doors 273 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 2: is because he has something better. Don't be discouraged by 274 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 2: what didn't work out. Stay in faith. Your time is coming. 275 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 2: The right opportunity is on the way. It's going to 276 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 2: be better than you thought. That person that walked out 277 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 2: of your life, it wasn't fair, It was painful, but 278 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 2: it didn't stop your destiny. They left only to make 279 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 2: room for someone better. God has beauty for those ashes. 280 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 2: You haven't seen your best days. Keep moving forward when 281 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 2: you don't understand, Keep being your best when it's not fair. 282 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: This is what Joseph did. 283 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 2: How could he have a good attitude year after year 284 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 2: after being betrayed by his family, sold into slavery, put 285 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 2: in prison for something that he didn't do. Deep down, 286 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 2: he knew his time was coming. He knew what God 287 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 2: spoke to him as a teenager, the dream that was 288 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 2: put in his heart would come to pass. 289 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: He didn't know how, when, or where. 290 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 2: All he knew was God is faithful and that the 291 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 2: set time was already on the calendar. He didn't cast 292 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 2: away his confidence. He had plenty of all opportunities too. 293 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 2: He'd had a lot of bad breaks. But when you 294 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 2: understand that God is ordering your steps that nothing can 295 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 2: happen to you without his permission. 296 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,160 Speaker 1: Then you won't fall apart. 297 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 2: When a pandemic hits. You won't live bitter when somebody 298 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 2: does you wrong. You won't give up on your dream 299 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 2: when life throws you a. 300 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 1: Cur You know it's all a part of God's plan. 301 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 2: That setback is only setting you up to go further. 302 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:31,400 Speaker 2: God had the solution before you had the problem. He's 303 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 2: already set the time to turn it around, set the 304 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,879 Speaker 2: time to open the right door, set the time to 305 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 2: bring you out promoted, vindicated, healthy and whole. One day 306 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 2: the Pharaoh, the leader of the country, had a dream 307 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 2: that he didn't understand what it meant. The scripture says 308 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 2: Pharaoh sent for Joseph. He was hastily brought from the 309 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 2: dungeon into Pharaoh's presence, just like with David. King Saul said, 310 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 2: send me David to the palace. The Pharaoh said, send 311 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 2: me that prisoner, send me that slave named Joseph. Both 312 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 2: times the promotion came looking for them. You don't have 313 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,119 Speaker 2: to look for the blessing. The blessing is going to 314 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 2: come looking for you. Joseph was brought to the palace hastily. 315 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 2: He wasn't expecting it. It was an ordinary day, nothing special, 316 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 2: and suddenly he was in the palace. He didn't see 317 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 2: it coming, wasn't any sign of it. He woke up 318 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 2: a slave in prison. He went to bed that night, 319 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 2: the Prime Minister. God has some of these suddenlyes in 320 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 2: your future. You don't see anything improving. Everything looks the same, 321 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,639 Speaker 2: and you come into a set time. It's going to 322 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 2: happen hastily, in a hurry. Quickly, things turn around quickly, 323 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 2: the door opens quickly, your health improves. It may be 324 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 2: difficult now, but you don't know. Any moment, you could 325 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 2: get a call like Joseph did. Send me, Julie, send 326 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 2: me William, send me Maria. That's how you stay in faith. 327 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 2: You have to keep this hope in your heart, knowing 328 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 2: that God has already lined up these set times for you. 329 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,440 Speaker 2: If you only look at your situation in the natural, 330 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:20,439 Speaker 2: you'll get discouraged. Because God puts dreams in our hearts 331 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 2: that we can't accomplish on our own. We don't have 332 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,360 Speaker 2: the resources, the connections, the experience. 333 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 1: This is so we'll have to. 334 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 2: Depend on Him. We face challenges that we can't overcome 335 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 2: by ourselves, a sickness, an addiction, people that are more powerful. 336 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 2: It looks like we're stuck, But deep down you have 337 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 2: to know the forces that are for you are greater 338 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 2: than the forces that are against you. You may feel outnumbered, 339 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:53,639 Speaker 2: at a disadvantage. The sickness seems bigger, the addiction stronger. 340 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 2: Keep reminding yourself your time is coming. One touch of 341 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 2: God's favor at time and things will suddenly change. Nothing 342 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 2: can stand against our God. No sickness is too great, 343 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 2: no addiction too strong, no enemy too powerful. I talked 344 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 2: to a gentleman that was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. 345 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 2: The doctors only gave him eighteen months to live. He 346 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 2: heard me tell how my mother quoted healing scriptures when 347 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 2: she was sick with cancer, and how she defied the odds, 348 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 2: and instead of accepting it and thinking his life was over, 349 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 2: he started quoting these scriptures and thanking God that he 350 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:38,120 Speaker 2: was restoring health back into him. The Psalmus said, when 351 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 2: darkness overtakes, the righteous light will come bursting in. When 352 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 2: you're in a tough time, seems like there's no way out, 353 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:50,360 Speaker 2: the odds are against you, it's easy to live worried. 354 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:50,920 Speaker 1: Fall apart. 355 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,440 Speaker 2: But you have to remind yourself that God has already 356 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:58,640 Speaker 2: set the time for light to come bursting in. He's 357 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 2: already set the time for healing, set the time for breakthroughs. 358 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 2: Bursting means it's going to happen suddenly. You didn't see 359 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 2: it coming. You can't explain it. It's out of the ordinary. 360 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 2: When I spoke with this young man, he said that 361 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 2: yesterday was the end of the eighteen months. That's how 362 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 2: much time he was given to live. He went back 363 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 2: to the hospital for a checkup. The doctor said, we 364 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:27,199 Speaker 2: can't explain this. We don't know how it happened, but 365 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 2: we can't find any cancer in your brain. You are 366 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:34,679 Speaker 2: perfectly well. When you come in to your set time, 367 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 2: God will make things happen that you couldn't make happen. 368 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 2: He can do what medicine cannot do. He's not limited 369 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 2: by what limits us. We're natural. He's supernatural. You may 370 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 2: be in darkness, but instead of complaining about the darkness, 371 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:54,119 Speaker 2: being depressed by the darkness, try a different approach. Father, 372 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 2: thank you that your light is about to come bursting in. 373 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,360 Speaker 2: Thank you that my set time for favor, set time 374 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,640 Speaker 2: for healing, set time for deliverance is on the way. 375 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 2: Don't cast away your confidence. God is bigger than what 376 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 2: you're facing. You may not see how it can work out. Logically, 377 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 2: there's no way. The good news is you don't have 378 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 2: to figure it out. All you have to do is believe. 379 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 2: When you believe, all things are possible. When you go 380 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 2: through the day saying Father, I don't see a way, 381 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 2: but I know you have a way. It doesn't look 382 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 2: possible to me, but I know you can do the impossible. 383 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 2: Like this man, You'll see these times where God will 384 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 2: show out in your life. 385 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 1: It may not have happened yet, but I believe you. 386 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 2: Are closer than you think. You are close to your breakthrough. 387 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 2: You are close to things turning around. You are close 388 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 2: to that child getting back on course. You wouldn't be 389 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 2: hearing this if you weren't about to see one of 390 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 2: your set times. Verse Samuel, chapter one. There was a 391 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 2: young lady named Hannah. She was barren and not able 392 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,159 Speaker 2: to have children. Her husband was married to another woman 393 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 2: as well, named Panana. She had baby after baby didn't 394 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 2: seem fair. Hannah kept praying and believing, but the scripture 395 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 2: says the Lord had shut her wound. 396 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 1: The good news. 397 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 2: Is the same God that shuts wombs can open wounds. 398 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:26,160 Speaker 2: Just as God shuts doors, he can open doors. Year 399 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 2: after year went by with no sign of a baby 400 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 2: in Hannah was very discouraged. She went to the temple, 401 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 2: fell on her knees, and asked God to give her 402 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,919 Speaker 2: a child. The prophet Eli saw how distraught she was 403 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 2: and asked what was wrong. She explained how she couldn't 404 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 2: have children. She was asking God to open her wound. 405 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 2: Eli said, cheer up. The God of Israel has granted 406 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 2: your request. You're going to have a baby. Eli said, 407 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 2: in effect, you're about to come in to one of 408 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 2: your set times. You're about to see God do something 409 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 2: that you've never seen. 410 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: Here's the key. 411 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 2: Hannah believed what he said. 412 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 1: She went back home. 413 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 2: A different person. She had a smile on her face, 414 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 2: a spring in her step. She didn't have the baby yet, 415 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 2: all she had was the promise that her time was coming. 416 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,879 Speaker 2: A year later, she went back to the temple with 417 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 2: her baby boy that she named Samuel. Sometimes, like with 418 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 2: Hannah and the other wife, it seemed like everybody is 419 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 2: being blessed except you. Everybody's getting married except you. Everybody's 420 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 2: seeing promotion. Accept you. It's like the favor has been 421 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 2: shut off. But don't be discouraged by what hasn't happened yet. 422 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 2: Your time is coming, Your baby is coming, your healing 423 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 2: is coming, your joy is coming. 424 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 1: God is about to open up your wound. 425 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 2: You're about to see things that you've been believing for 426 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 2: a long time, promises you thought would never happen, dreams 427 00:24:58,359 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 2: that you've let go of. 428 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 1: You are close to your. 429 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 2: Set time of favor. Now I've done what Eli did. 430 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,399 Speaker 2: I've announced what God said. You have to do like 431 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 2: Hannah and say yes, God, this is for me. Let 432 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 2: this seed take root in your spirit. Don't let it 433 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 2: just be another encouraging message. Let it ignite your faith. 434 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 2: Let it come alive on the inside. You are on 435 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 2: the verge of seeing God do something amazing. It's not 436 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,679 Speaker 2: far off, it's not way off in the distance. You 437 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 2: are close to your breakthrough. You are in the final stretch. Now, 438 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 2: don't cast away your confidence. This is not the time 439 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 2: to get discouraged. This is not the time to talk defeat. 440 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 2: This is the time to stir up your faith, turn 441 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,160 Speaker 2: up your praise, talk like it's in route all through 442 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 2: the day. 443 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 1: Father, Thank you, that my time is coming. 444 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,920 Speaker 2: Thank you that you're the waymaker, the promise keeper, the 445 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 2: miracle worker. If you'll do this, God said, you will 446 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 2: be richly rewarded. I believe and declare light is about 447 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 2: to come bursting in. 448 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:06,479 Speaker 1: God is about to surprise you. 449 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 2: He's going to do something that you've never seen, something 450 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 2: that will thrust you to a new level. Negative situations 451 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:17,639 Speaker 2: are about to suddenly turn around, like with Joseph and David. 452 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:23,679 Speaker 2: Promotion is going to come looking for you, the right people, healing, breakthroughs, vindication, 453 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 2: the fullness of your destiny in Jesus's name. Well, I'd 454 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 2: like to give you an opportunity to make Jesus the 455 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 2: lord of your life. Would you pray with me? Just say, Lord, Jesus, 456 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:41,120 Speaker 2: I repent of my sins, Come into my heart, Make 457 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 2: you my Lord and savior. If you prayed that simple prayer, 458 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 2: we believe you got born again. Get in a good 459 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 2: Bible based church, and keep God first place. 460 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 3: Life throws so much at us disappointments, failures, challenges. We 461 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:00,919 Speaker 3: can feel so out of time much that we no 462 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 3: longer recognize ourselves. 463 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,880 Speaker 2: Life has a way of changing us. At one time 464 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 2: we were outgoing and excited about our dreams. 465 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 1: But when we go through disappointments and people do us wrong, 466 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 1: it's easy to lose that positive, passionate person that we 467 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 1: used to be. 468 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 2: In my new book, Rediscovering the Forgotten You, I'll help 469 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 2: you get back to who you really are, the joyful you, 470 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,960 Speaker 2: the confident you, the talented you. It's not too late. 471 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,880 Speaker 2: You haven't been through too much. You may have lost 472 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 2: part of yourself, but you can find yourself. God is 473 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 2: in the business. 474 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: Of restoring what was lost, healing what was broken. 475 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 2: You haven't seen the best version of you, yet it's 476 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 2: still in front of you. 477 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 3: As our way of saying thank you for your gift 478 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 3: of any amount, we would like to send you a 479 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 3: copy of Joel's brand new book, Rediscovering the Forgotten You. 480 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 3: Take back your passion, reignite your dreams, and embrace the 481 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 3: life you were created to live.
