1 00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:08,280 Speaker 1: Hey, this is Lance and I've got some very important 2 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:13,039 Speaker 1: news for you today. Your life, your calling, your purpose, 3 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:17,720 Speaker 1: the most important thing. See, once a person meets Jesus, 4 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:21,960 Speaker 1: once they become a Christian, then the greatest question is Lord, 5 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 1: what would you have me to do? What would you 6 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 1: have me to do? Because we're all going to appear 7 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: before the Lord and give an account for our life. 8 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,560 Speaker 1: And of course what we want to do is we 9 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 1: want to get past the anxiety of am I going 10 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:37,240 Speaker 1: to heaven when I die? That's step one. Most people 11 00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: stop there. What I'm looking for is something different. I'm 12 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 1: looking for well done, thou good and faithful servant, Well 13 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 1: done because you did what you were called to do. 14 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:51,879 Speaker 1: And a lot of my audience is an older audience, 15 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: and so we're in that phase of life. Listen, if 16 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 1: you're younger, grab hold of what I'm teaching now, because 17 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 1: this accelerate you. But you're at a stage now where the 18 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 1: challenge is to finish strong, not finish week, but finish powerful, 19 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,959 Speaker 1: not broken, embarrassed, but strong, leaving a legacy. And for 20 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: a lot of you, the legacy is the model that 21 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,839 Speaker 1: you're bringing for your children. You show them the life 22 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: you've got I heard a man fit this to me once, 23 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 1: John Shrock, a great, wise old man, and he was 24 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 1: a full gospel business guy, and he said, Lance, I've 25 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: learned something that you're He said, how many boys you got? 26 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: I got three, so I got two sons and a daughter. 27 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: He said, I'll tell you something. If you stay faithful 28 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 1: to the call of God, and you stay strong to 29 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: the end, and you don't give them a reason to 30 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: question the credibility of faith, your testimony as a believer 31 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: will be the strongest lifelong voice in their head for 32 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 1: walking with Jesus. Because your example, you and Annabelle and 33 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 1: your faith together and you're walked together, is going to 34 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 1: be the model of what they'll remember. As long as 35 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: you stay strong and you run your race well, they're 36 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: going to continue to follow in one way or another 37 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 1: after that example because it's in their DNA and in 38 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 1: their brain. I never forgot that. Always it's an encouragement 39 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 1: to try to try to realize that our legacy is 40 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 1: perhaps the most important thing we leave behind because it 41 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: inspires and influences other people. So I want to talk 42 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: to you now about the call. This is the material 43 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: we're covering here is called your Ultimate light strategy and 44 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: it has to do with this theme of convergence. And 45 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 1: I'm going to go back to my board here our 46 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 1: last lessons talked about this idea is the greater the destiny, 47 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: the greater the demand on your personal capacity. I say 48 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: that over here is where the calling of God is, 49 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: the call of God on this side of the menu. 50 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 1: Over here you want to reach the summit, and that's 51 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: called the actualization point. That means you hit the peak 52 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: of doing what it is you're called to do. And 53 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 1: there is a way. There's plenty of evidence in the 54 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: Bible that Paul said, I've finished the race. I have run. 55 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 1: I've fought a good fight. Your life is like a race, 56 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: and the finish line is when you're standing looking back 57 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: and saying, I did the thing you called me to do. 58 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 1: Jesus's prayer that is so powerful in John seventeen his father, 59 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: I finished the work you gave me to do. And 60 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: to each of us is an assignment the work. And 61 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: I wonder if you know what that work is. I 62 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: wonder if you're engaged in the work. I wonder if 63 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 1: you're answering that call of God here to go to 64 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: the top of what your assignment is so you can 65 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: feel like this is the highest and best use of me. 66 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: Now I've learned something. I've learned that in the study 67 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: of this subject, there's a word for getting into the 68 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: place where you're you're in the the nuclear center of 69 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: God's plan, and that's when your gifts, talents, and acquired 70 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: skills come to a certain maturity and God opens up 71 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 1: for you the opportunity to serve him in an assignment 72 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:22,599 Speaker 1: that fits in matches your preparation. When you get there, 73 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: you're in You're not at work anymore. You're in a vocation. 74 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,479 Speaker 1: You're in your calling. And when you're in your calling, 75 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: you have more authority, you have more spiritual life because 76 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: you're actually in the blueprint of what God called you 77 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: to do. And even when the enemy comes against you, 78 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: you have a unique authority to be able to say 79 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: and your prayers, in your commands and your intercession. You 80 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,159 Speaker 1: have a different presence over what's happening because you're in 81 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: the field where God put you in charge, not the devil, 82 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: and it's your job to make sure that the devil 83 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,119 Speaker 1: submits to you and things clear out of the way. 84 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: That's where the force of faith comes into motion. But 85 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: what we found out in our re arch is that 86 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:05,719 Speaker 1: place there is called convergence. That's the language that was 87 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: I learned from a guy named Bobby Clinton, a professor 88 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: of Fuller Theological Seminary, and convergence is that that phase 89 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: of life where you're in the zone and you're doing 90 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: what you're really anointed to do. Don't you want that? 91 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: In fact, when you're doing that, you're one hundred percent alive. 92 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 1: I think that's abundant life. When you're doing what God 93 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 1: called you to do in the place that God called you, 94 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: with the people that God called you doing, and bearing 95 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 1: the fruit that God called you to bear. Now, don't 96 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 1: think it's not going to be without resistance, because the 97 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 1: mountain here which is your calling, has another mountain over 98 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: here which is very challenging, called the mountain of me. 99 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: In fact, one of the data points with convergence, so 100 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 1: we found is that only twenty percent of ministers, because 101 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 1: Clinton did his research mostly with preachers, only twenty percent 102 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: of peace people whose full time job is the Bible 103 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,239 Speaker 1: felt that they were in convergence, that they were doing 104 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: the thing that greatly reflects what they do best of 105 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: what they're called to do well that means eighty percent 106 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: don't make it. So I started studying why is it 107 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: that eighty percent of people don't run the race and 108 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: end up in the place where they're doing the thing 109 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: that God called to do. And I found the big 110 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: factor had to do with this thing, the wheel of life. 111 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: Clinton said, it's usually the personal life that is getting 112 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 1: out of balance and it can't sustain the demand you 113 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: see or you're mounted to me determines whether or not 114 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 1: you can stay and sustain convergence. Why because if you 115 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,719 Speaker 1: look at the areas here financial for instance, if you 116 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: have excessive weight, debt, distraction, the burden of finance trying 117 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: to pay these you've spent more time trying to raise 118 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: money than you actually spend doing the thing God called 119 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 1: you to do. That's not convergence. If you're emotionally vulnerable 120 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: and you're a nervous wreck, now seriously, you got warfare right. 121 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: So if you are at a place where rather than 122 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: being able to live in peace and live in personal strength, 123 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: in other words, you're anointing maybe at work over here 124 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: in your calling. And if this is what the mystery 125 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: that happens signs wonders, miracle, scandal, how many of us 126 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: have seen that. Well, you see, the anointing and the 127 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: gift is what sustains your gifts is what accelerates you 128 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: over here. But it's the fruit of the spirit that 129 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: sustains you over here. So if you don't have patience, 130 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: if you don't have endurance, if you don't have self control, 131 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: then you'll find Oh wait a second, your health becomes 132 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: the issue. Your emotional life becomes fragged at the edges. Hey, 133 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: I know, listen. I remember one time when I was 134 00:07:55,400 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: doing TBN, I talked to different preachers and they said, Man, 135 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: certain guys that were on TBN, they were all on fire. 136 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: They're boom boom, they were like, you know, sizzling hot 137 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: on TV. But then when they when they were off 138 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: the air, they were calling on the phone, you know, 139 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: from their hotel room, trying to get some kind of 140 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: stimulant or something they could take to because they were 141 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: so addicted to the high of the anointing and of 142 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: the realm here that their inner man wasn't strong enough 143 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: when they came out of the zone of the work 144 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: they do, when they had to go back and just 145 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 1: be a normal person, they didn't have to strengthen the 146 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: inner man to match the outer man. Does that make sense? Sorry, 147 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: I got a cough in my throat, tickle. So the 148 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:48,680 Speaker 1: fruit of the spirit or the inner man has to 149 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: be as strong as the calling, because the calling puts 150 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: a mantle on you to do something. But the inner 151 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: man is what you drop back to. When you're not 152 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: under the powerful, annoying thing of the avendor or whatever 153 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: the stimulus are there, you go back. Most people get 154 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: taken out here in their private life, not in their 155 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: public ministry. It's here, So it could be your emotional life. 156 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: It could be your marriage, it could be your family. 157 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,680 Speaker 1: It could be your kids that pull you out. Suddenly 158 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 1: got a child who is so addicted or so driven, 159 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 1: or so suicidal or so in trouble that it's weighing 160 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 1: on you emotionally and mentally. It's hurting your marriage, and 161 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 1: you're trying to put your work over here. Like Paul 162 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,680 Speaker 1: did say this, he said he had a gift of 163 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: celibacy which enabled him to not be distracted by the 164 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: affairs of this life and is strange, but he called 165 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: this life like being married and having marriage and kids 166 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: and other things. But the marriage and kids and other 167 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: things actually becomes something which can work against you if 168 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: this is not so. What I'm talking about is this 169 00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: wheel here which we looked at last week, needs to 170 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: to be strong so that you have personal capacity and 171 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: can stay in personal capacity so that you can enter 172 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: into career convergence. Your personal life does affect your calling. 173 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: Makes sense. You really need to hang out with me 174 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: for a day, don't you think if we can have 175 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,839 Speaker 1: a day or two where I can unpack these things? 176 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: I think that you know because I did I do 177 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: these programs and have done them. Mean, I got these DVDs, 178 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 1: recordings and things, But in reality, I think that the 179 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: best work is done interpersonally. That's the time when we 180 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 1: get together and the spirit of God comes down. You 181 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 1: get like thirty or forty people, It gets really intense. 182 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 1: The power of transformation comes in the room. I want 183 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,199 Speaker 1: to make that available to you. Are going to do 184 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: a program September. My birthday is September fourth, and September 185 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: twelfth through fourteenth. I want to do something in Dallas, Texas. 186 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna open it up right now. It's gonna fill 187 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: up fast, so grab it. Go to Lancewalant dot com. 188 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: Forward slash level up. I'm gonna make it level up. 189 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,319 Speaker 1: I like that.

In the moment we're gonna have 192 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: to end here, I'm gonna switch subjects. I want to 193 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: talk about how to have joy on the journey during 194 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 1: the hard part, because I'm gonna talk to you about 195 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 1: is transformation as a process, and the process is at 196 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: times uncomfortable because God's making you someone you've never been. 197 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: So you're working muscles you've never worked, and you're gonna 198 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,679 Speaker 1: feel out. But I'm gonna show you, at least I'm 199 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna show you the things that the Bible 200 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 1: says to have sustained joy during the process of acquiring 201 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: what you're looking for. 202 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 2: The Lance Wall Now show will return right after this break. 203 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 1: This is for Christians especially, very important concept because I 204 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 1: really believe that this is the hidden force in the earth. 205 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: I mean, the Church that God is raising up, the 206 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,319 Speaker 1: people of God that God's raising up, are the end 207 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: time instrument of His power. And I feel like there's 208 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: a lot of pressure that is taking place on the 209 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 1: earth and a lot of stress that's coming. And I 210 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,719 Speaker 1: labor very hard to try to give a biblical worldview 211 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 1: as to why we're living in the era we're in 212 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 1: and how that pressure times of stress are sure to come. 213 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: You know, I got my Bible here. Ninety percent of 214 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: what's written is written for the last ten percent of history. 215 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 1: It's written for the prophetic generation that has to live 216 00:12:56,240 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 1: in this period and walk through these cycles. The Bible 217 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: says in Hebrews Chapter four, verse eleven, let us therefore 218 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: be diligent to enter that rest, let anyone fall according 219 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 1: to the same example of disobedience as the Old Testament 220 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: saints who wandered around in the wilderness and didn't get 221 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,959 Speaker 1: into the promised land. I'm going to talk to you 222 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: about how God has a land of promises for you. 223 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: And if you think you're going to get there without battles, 224 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: you don't know the Bible. There's not a person here 225 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: that walked in their destiny and didn't have battles. They 226 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 1: had to go through. And part of the battle is 227 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 1: overcoming what's in me that is getting in the way 228 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,680 Speaker 1: of what I got to do out there. But this 229 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: word says, don't follow their same example of disobedience, because 230 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: what they did was they allowed their circumstances to redefine 231 00:13:55,080 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 1: their expectations. But God says, no, He wants you to 232 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 1: enter into his rest by being able to focus with 233 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: patience and perseverance on fulfilling the promise that He has 234 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: for you. And then it says, for the Word of 235 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 1: God is alive, it's living, it's powerful, it's sharper than 236 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: a twoad sword. It pierces to the division of soul, 237 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 1: and spirit joins the marrow, is a deserner of the 238 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: thoughts and intents of the heart. The Word of God 239 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 1: becomes the secret to entering into a rest. What is 240 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: the rest? The rest is the is that place that 241 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 1: you have in your soul where your mind, your emotions 242 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: are under the governing power of the spirit, and you're 243 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: pursuing the thing that God called you to do. And 244 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: in the midst of global shaking in news cycles and 245 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: media cycles, I mean, I put this program deliberately also 246 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: on Real America's Voice on Sunday mornings, and I realized 247 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 1: that you know, from Monday to Saturday, if you're like me, 248 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: you're addicted to what is Brother Bannon's ay? What is 249 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 1: our brother Charlie Karkshan, what is our all the other 250 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 1: people saying, and I'm getting And then I do news myself. 251 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: I got my own podcast, and I do flashpoint, I 252 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 1: do news analysis. So I have to be up on 253 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: all this stuff. And then the Lord comes back to 254 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: me and says, are you at rest? How is the 255 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 1: victory for you? How's your emotional stay doing? And I 256 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: realized We've got some verses here we got to work on. Like, 257 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,359 Speaker 1: for instance, I want you to go to First Thessalonians 258 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: chapter five. Grab your bible. This may not be how 259 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: you normally do. Hey, listen, a lot of this is 260 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: gonna be played on some of it's gonna be weekdays. 261 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: Someone is gonna be Real America's voice on Sunday, So 262 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: this ought to be a Sunday exercise for you. Go 263 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 1: to First Thesalonians chapter five. Check this verse out. I 264 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: didn't know I was going to go here today, but 265 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: I'm going there First Escalonians, chapter five, and look at versus. 266 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 1: This is challenging. I'll start with verse fifteen for all 267 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 1: of my protesters out there. I'm told the Lord tells 268 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: me see that no one renders evil for evil, but 269 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: always pursue what is good for yourself and for others. 270 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: There's a challenge. Don't be responding and kind to the 271 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: way people treat you. There's a great little anecdot a 272 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 1: member in the life of Robert E. Lee, the Confederate general. 273 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: One of his subordinates, asked him if, oh, yeah, he 274 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 1: had He asked him what he thought of this particular officer, 275 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: and Lee said, he's a confident man, focused on his work. 276 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: He maintains himself well under pressure, and his troops love him. 277 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: He's a good leader. And then the officer said, well, 278 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 1: here's what he says about you, and he tells him 279 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: what he said, and he said, now, what do you say? 280 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: And Lee responded, and I think it's so powerful. He said, Look, 281 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: you asked me what I think about him, not what 282 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: he thinks about me. That's an interesting statement. And some 283 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: of us change our opinion of people the moment that 284 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: they disagree with us. They're all that. But what does 285 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: Paul say. He says, see that you don't render evil 286 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: for evil, And if you do that, you can go 287 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 1: into verse sixteen rejoice always. Hey, there's something How do 288 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 1: you rejoice? How do you rejoice always when there's bad news? Well, 289 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 1: the next verse tells you how pray without ceasing. That means, 290 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 1: if you're anxious for something, pray about it. If you're 291 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: upset about something, pray about it. If you're under attack, 292 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: pray about it. Because you know what happens when you pray. 293 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 1: The peace of God comes upon you. And now you 294 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 1: can rejoice always and then in everything give thanks in everything. Lord, yes, 295 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,639 Speaker 1: in everything. He doesn't say for everything. I hope you're 296 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 1: getting something out of this today. I want to talk 297 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:45,199 Speaker 1: to you about how to live that life that is 298 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,919 Speaker 1: abundant and victorious, pursuing what God called you to do. 299 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 1: You're not You're not going to be called for the 300 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 1: judgment seen of Jesus and have him say, hey, what 301 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: did you think about, you know, going to war with Iran? Hey, 302 00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 1: what did you think about the you know, the budget? Hey, 303 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: what to think about the immigration issue? He ain't even 304 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: going to talk to you about that. He's going to say, 305 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 1: did you do what I called you to do? And 306 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: you're going to go. But Lord, I was distracted. There's 307 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: parables to warn you about that, he answerved. That's not 308 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: the one you want to give him. So the Word 309 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 1: of God, when you spend time with the Word, I 310 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 1: want to say this I'm wasting my breath and wasting 311 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 1: my life if you think that, I'm going to show 312 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: you and I've got it.

Do you know? 317 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: One guy said to me, he's a professional coach. He said, Lance, 318 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 1: you know what email is? I go, No, what is email? 319 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 1: He goes? Email is other people's plans for your life. 320 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: In other words, everybody comes to you with emails just 321 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: something to do this, do this, check this out?

You want 333 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: to really level up, find out what their anxieties are, 334 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: their fears are, the things they're struggling with, and be 335 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: there to support them, to connect with them. Become a 336 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 1: family that works together to help each other do what 337 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,680 Speaker 1: God calling to do, and get the family anointing. Spouses 338 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 1: can have an anointing on them together, coming into agreement 339 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: for what they want to see manifest God. Here's that prayer, 340 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:57,119 Speaker 1: and then you have that God so brilliant. The Sabbath 341 00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 1: is the once a week reset from all the bombs 342 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: of life. All right, I didn't get into my material yet, 343 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:07,920 Speaker 1: and I'm a little bit frustrated, but let me go 344 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 1: there now. If you're going to have rejoice always and 345 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:12,880 Speaker 1: be joyful at all times, then we have to look 346 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: at what the process is. And I showed you this before, 347 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: but I want to come back my magic pen. I 348 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,479 Speaker 1: want to show you that everybody starts off here. You 349 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:29,640 Speaker 1: get a prophecy, a, you got something that the Lord 350 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 1: tells you that you're excited about, and you think that 351 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,639 Speaker 1: you're going to go whoo and then all of a sudden, 352 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:42,159 Speaker 1: it's all gonna happen, just like the Word of the 353 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: Lord said, Well, let me tell you something. God gives 354 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 1: you a dream, Joseph. I mean, it's not like he 355 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 1: doesn't tell you in the Bible how the system works. 356 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,439 Speaker 1: God gives you the end from the beginning. He treats 357 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 1: you like he does things. God shows you the end. 358 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:02,199 Speaker 1: God shows you the what. Do you know what? He 359 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: doesn't show you the how? How is where? You're going 360 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 1: to walk? By faith? How is where? And you go, 361 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: I don't believe that. Yes, it's biblical. Abraham went forth 362 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 1: searching for a city. Who's builder and maker is God. 363 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,199 Speaker 1: He searched for that city, he went forth, he got 364 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 1: a vision of it, and he went forth knowing not 365 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 1: where he went. That's the Bible. He did not know 366 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,760 Speaker 1: where it was going. He said, so, my forefathers had 367 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 1: to walk by faith to get to where they had 368 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: to go. But he had a clear outcome. He knew 369 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: the what, he didn't know the how. And by the way, 370 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 1: when God shows you you're going to have a baby, 371 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 1: he doesn't tell you about all the sleepless nights you're 372 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 1: gonna have and all the extra you know he got 373 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 1: one person. Two people aren't working anymore. One person's at home, 374 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: and they don't get they don't need more than just 375 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks off. You really need a little 376 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,359 Speaker 1: time to raise that job. And then or you're going 377 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: to didn't show you with the marriage. It's the wedding day. Whooh, 378 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 1: it's so sweet, and then the party and all the 379 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: pictures all and then you wake up and you got 380 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,119 Speaker 1: to deal with that person and you discover bad habits. 381 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 1: They got that they don't like being told what to do. 382 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:08,679 Speaker 1: They leave the drawers open, they leave their dirty laundry 383 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: on the floor, all the things. Because you weren't living together. 384 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: Obviously I'm not recommending to live together, but I'm saying 385 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 1: about you're discovering something. And what I'm trying to show 386 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 1: you is every dream goes through a distress process where 387 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: you suddenly realize things you didn't know. In the how 388 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 1: to have a successful marriage, you knew what you wanted, 389 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: you had the picture to show you happy couple. But 390 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: now you're going to go through and then you learn 391 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,359 Speaker 1: I learned about this. I learned I don't have to 392 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: win every argument. See by nature, in my kind of mentality. 393 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 1: The way I grew up. I got two brothers that 394 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:47,479 Speaker 1: are professors. We debated all the time. We argued all 395 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 1: the time, and I'm wann't always the smartest story. My 396 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: dad was a lawyer. He was the worst one to 397 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: argue with because he was really brilliant at it. But 398 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: the fact is I grew up with a kind of 399 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 1: competitive idea environment. I found something out. There are some 400 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:03,160 Speaker 1: arguments you don't have to win because you may win 401 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 1: the argument, but you lose the relationship. And so would 402 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 1: you rather be right or would you rather have the relationship? 403 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: What I'm talking about is stuff that people learn about 404 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 1: in the journey of how this is going to be 405 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 1: in terms of how to build a company. It's going 406 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 1: to be in terms of how to have a ministry, 407 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:22,439 Speaker 1: it's going to be, in terms of how to have 408 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: a marriage, it's going to be in terms of how 409 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 1: to have a family. You don't know what you don't know. 410 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 1: That's what's called unconscious incompetence. But guess what you find 411 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,159 Speaker 1: out consciously what you don't know when you go through 412 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: the process. And still I say, rejoice, always pray with us. 413 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 1: You know what if you follow the system that I've 414 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: got I'll show you how life really works, because it 415 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,879 Speaker 1: doesn't happen in the nice little cookie cutter, you know, 416 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 1: Act one, Act two, act three, like the movie you 417 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: want to go see. It actually happens messy, but God's 418 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 1: in it, and out of the mess comes a mess message. 419 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:05,159 Speaker 1: And God's message to you is He's shaping you through 420 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:11,199 Speaker 1: the process, through the enduing you're able to come to 421 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,639 Speaker 1: the place of being an overcomer. I'm just telling you 422 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: how life really works. This is financial, this is physical, 423 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,679 Speaker 1: this is marriage. I'm telling you how the system works, 424 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 1: and I'm giving it from the Bible, but different than 425 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 1: most people teach it. All right, I'm going to have 426 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 1: to sign off right now. I can't believe we ran 427 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: out of time, but we'll be back again with the 428 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:28,919 Speaker 1: next installment. 429 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 2: The Lance Wall Now Show will return right after this break. 430 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: So important that you take a look at where you 431 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 1: are in your life right now and say, is this 432 00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 1: really the abundant life that the Lord promised me? I 433 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 1: want to have abundant peace. What is the kingdom abundant joy? Well, 434 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: it's possible. I mean, I'm I got to tell you this. 435 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 1: You have to focus on what's missing in order to 436 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:24,680 Speaker 1: appreciate how to fix it. And so I started reading 437 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: recently with the Apostle. Paul says, rejoice, always pray without ceasing, 438 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 1: and give thanks in everything, not for everything, in everything, 439 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,679 Speaker 1: because when you're giving thanks in the storm, you're putting 440 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 1: God over the storm. I'm like a turbulation a plane 441 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 1: that right away, Lord, I thank you that you are 442 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 1: with me. You send me your my going out and 443 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 1: my coming in. You direct my steps. I'll say, I've 444 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: got three million miles in the air. Trust me. I've 445 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 1: had experiences and the Lord I have to I have 446 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 1: to go to him to go above the storm. And 447 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: times when I know I'm on a super mission and 448 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 1: I know that God has put my face in the 449 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 1: future doing something, it gives me a peace, fact gives 450 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,640 Speaker 1: me an authority to take authority over what's happening. Shaking 451 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: calm in Jesus' name. Bring this plane into stability, Lord, 452 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 1: bring the pilot into wisdom and where to fly. It 453 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: seats the storm and turbulence, Lord, and eventually it works 454 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 1: out all right. So I want to talk about the 455 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 1: art fulfillment, how to stay happy. And what I showed 456 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 1: you before is everybody starts off with a dream, and 457 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: God gives you a vision for what he wants you 458 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 1: to build. What God doesn't show you is the how. 459 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 1: What he does show you is the what. Sorry, I 460 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 1: got my back to you here. But he shows you what. 461 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 1: He shows you what the picture looks like for the future. 462 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,120 Speaker 1: But he doesn't show you is the process of how 463 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 1: you're going to get there. And the process you're going 464 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 1: to get there is. Oh, it's a bit of a 465 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,920 Speaker 1: roller coaster. Now, Joseph has a Dreamly give me biblical examples. 466 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 1: Joseph has a dream, Joseph gets put in prison. Joseph 467 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,439 Speaker 1: ends up becoming developed and promoted over time until Joseph 468 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 1: is the prime Minister of Egypt. Right, that's pretty interesting 469 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: any other stories like that. David gets annoyed by Samuel. 470 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: David takes out the giant. David is a celebrity, He's 471 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:20,439 Speaker 1: a YouTube star the age of sixteen. Then boom, He's 472 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 1: starting to try to dodge his father in law thrown 473 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 1: spears at him until he finally gets driven into cage 474 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 1: and he's running for his life, constantly barely escaping death. 475 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 1: He learns over a period of time how to rule. 476 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 1: He finally he succeeds Saul is king, but he doesn't 477 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 1: have everybody. He's got two tribes. Just to wait until 478 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 1: he has twelve tribes and then boom, he is walking 479 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 1: as the king of Israel. Oh that prophecy Samuel anointed 480 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:51,359 Speaker 1: him to be king. But this thing here is called watch. 481 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: The word is called the process. And by the way, 482 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,959 Speaker 1: there's a science to this. If you're going through a 483 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:09,400 Speaker 1: period of time, sickness, financial marriage, business, bankruptcy, courts, lawsuits, accusations, 484 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 1: physical threats, there's all kinds of gnarly, real world ugly 485 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 1: ways process events. Having God has his way, He overrules 486 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: what the enemy is doing. Because what's happening is the 487 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 1: entire time that you're on that trip. Your emotional life 488 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 1: may be like going, whoa God, help help help you 489 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:31,880 Speaker 1: start to see a breakthrough, then you can rejoice. Well 490 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,360 Speaker 1: that's the way the process feels emotionally. But if you're 491 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 1: going to have joy during the process, then you have 492 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 1: to learn the skill. You're gonna have to learn the skill. 493 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 1: Watch this you learn the skill, I think skill. The 494 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: skill is learning how to bring your mind and your 495 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: emotions under the command of your spirit so that you 496 00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 1: are praying strong. You have the end from the beginning, 497 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 1: and you're learning the wisdom that is necessary to navigate 498 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 1: and make the right decisions as you are going through 499 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: the process. And what is God doing. He's increasing your 500 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: personal capacity. He is literally building you up to a 501 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 1: place here where he can end that chapter. And what 502 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 1: does God doing end is the chapter he starts a 503 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 1: new one. Suddenly there's a change in your circumstance, there's 504 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 1: a promotion that happens, there's a new door that opens up, 505 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 1: and you'll see that these things are actually chapters of 506 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 1: your life. If you look back, you'll see you grew, 507 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,959 Speaker 1: You grew, you grew. You started off not knowing what 508 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 1: you didn't know. Then you discovered I don't even know 509 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: if I want to be here Lord, and then gradually 510 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 1: it say, oh, this is how you do it. And 511 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 1: then it's finally, oh, anybody could do that. See the 512 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: stage here of unconscious competence is the stage where where 513 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 1: you should be nervous when you get there, because it's 514 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 1: usually when God says, you got it, let's close that 515 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 1: chapter out. And God surrings that opportunity and sets you 516 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 1: up into your future, your next cycle. So God brings 517 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 1: you into the next chapter in your life. So let's 518 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 1: take a look at the power of how, a powerful 519 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 1: why can pull you into your future. So God shows 520 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 1: you what you're called to do. I don't know if 521 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 1: you guys can see that well. And you know he's 522 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: a purple pen. God shows you. He shows you what 523 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 1: the future looks like. He doesn't show you how you're 524 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 1: going to get there. And the how is the mystery part. 525 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 1: So the how is the journey into the what. But 526 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 1: for the joy that was set before Jesus, he endured 527 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: the contradiction. What did Jesus endure? He endured the cross 528 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 1: because the cross was the way in which he was 529 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 1: going to accomplish the redemption of mankind, the forgiveness of 530 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 1: sins for mankind, that he eventually have a bride that 531 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 1: would be with him, and a great company that would 532 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: be his brethren in heaven, and that he would see 533 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 1: the travail of his soul and be satisfied with the 534 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: price that he was paying. I'm quoting a verse here, 535 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 1: do I have it? Hebrews twelve two. Let's go. If 536 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: you got a bible, we only got another two minutes 537 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 1: here in our rapid fire Bible. Steady so grab it 538 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 1: fast and Hebrews twelve too. Therefore we also, since we 539 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 1: are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let 540 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 1: us lay aside every weight and the sin that so 541 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 1: easily and there that's an encouraging word. If you have 542 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 1: a tendency to slip, and you go, oh, I can't believe. 543 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: I can't believe I said that. I can't believe I 544 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 1: did that. Hey, sin easily ensnares us. But let us 545 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 1: run with endurance the race that is set before us, 546 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 1: looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, 547 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 1: who for the joy that was set before him, endured 548 00:31:55,480 --> 00:32:00,600 Speaker 1: the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at 549 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 1: the right hand of the throne of God. He endured 550 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: the cross to despise the shame. I think I think 551 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 1: it's a pretty powerful verse. The old King James says. 552 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 1: Verse three. It says, for consider him who endured such 553 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 1: hostility from sinners against himself. Lett you become weary, slow down, 554 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: consider him who endured the hostility of sinners against himself. 555 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: Look at all the people are mad at Donald Trump 556 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 1: all the time. I mean, half the country's lunar crazy. 557 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: They don't even ever raise this. They almost want to 558 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 1: be crazy. But I'm saying, if that's true for a 559 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 1: human being's flawed, what's the explanation for the perfect human being? 560 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 1: The perfect savior? He had to endure sinners who hated him. 561 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 1: You're gonna have people who don't like you, folks, They're 562 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: gonna throw roadblocks in your way. But here's the old 563 00:32:56,760 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: King James says, he endured the contradiction. Can I say this? 564 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 1: This is so important that when I study convergence, do 565 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: you know the number one thing that keeps people from 566 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 1: being able to make the journey from where they are 567 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 1: to finding that place where they're crowned with joy at 568 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 1: the end of their journey. The number one thing we 569 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: found was either the wheel of life was out of 570 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 1: whack and there was some area not attended to, there 571 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 1: was like a flat tire that boom went out while 572 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: they were on the road, or they quit. The number 573 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 1: two reason they did not endure the contradiction. So when 574 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: I was talking to you here about this image here, 575 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 1: why am I talking about this? Because when you're in 576 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 1: distress and you're in the development process, you're in the 577 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 1: period of the contradiction. In other words, you're called. You 578 00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 1: see your organization humming, You see it growing, you see 579 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 1: it flowing, You see funding, and got some prophecies. You 580 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 1: thought for sure the prophet was right, and you believed, 581 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 1: and you went ahead and did it. And then you 582 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:10,439 Speaker 1: got people quitting, you got problems. You guess what. You're 583 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 1: increasing in wisdom, You're increasing in capacity, You're growing in 584 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:18,880 Speaker 1: your skills. You don't see it, but you're maturing and 585 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 1: at some point, bam, it's going to pay off. If 586 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: you endure the contradiction, you'll seize the joy of what 587 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 1: it is that God showed you. Jesus endured the cross, 588 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 1: despising the shame because he saw the end result was 589 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 1: worth the process. If you have a clear why, you 590 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 1: can endure the how. Whatever process you go through, you 591 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 1: can endure it if you have a clear picture of 592 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,400 Speaker 1: the joy of what God is showing you do so. 593 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: One of the things we want you to think about. 594 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,680 Speaker 1: I'm going to end my program right here, is I 595 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 1: want you to think strong. Are you fully clear about 596 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,319 Speaker 1: what God wants you to do? Do you have a 597 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:14,840 Speaker 1: clear picture for who He's called you to be? And listen, 598 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:16,760 Speaker 1: God will give it to you. If you're not clear, 599 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:22,359 Speaker 1: slow down, and let him show you. The word that 600 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 1: I'm I'm hearing in my spirit is that God wants 601 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 1: to make it clear because you see, the faith part 602 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,400 Speaker 1: of this is where Abraham stepped in and he was 603 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 1: fully persuaded. You have to be fully persuaded here that 604 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 1: God has called you there. You have to know that 605 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:47,360 Speaker 1: this is what his word has promised. Because if you 606 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:50,560 Speaker 1: believe that and see that what He has promised, then 607 00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 1: being fully persuaded here you'll push past the contradiction. And 608 00:35:57,239 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 1: that's what an overcomer is in the Bible. It's the 609 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:05,719 Speaker 1: one who comes over the contradiction. All right, we'll see 610 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 1: you get on the next episode. 611 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,920 Speaker 2: The Lance Wall Now show will return right after this break. 612 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:27,239 Speaker 1: All right, So powerful way why can pull you into 613 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 1: your future? And what that means is for the joy 614 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 1: that was set before Jesus, he endured. For the joy 615 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:36,799 Speaker 1: that was set before him, He endured the cross. So 616 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 1: that means Jesus had a picture of what the end 617 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 1: looked like. Remember last week I showed you those four 618 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,360 Speaker 1: phases in life. You have to have that dream and 619 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:49,280 Speaker 1: then you start off and you begin with that dream phase. 620 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 1: Then you go through the process. Well, the process. Maybe 621 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 1: in this case it was he endured the cross because 622 00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:58,320 Speaker 1: the cross was necessary to get through the joy, the 623 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 1: joy of what the joy of you being born again 624 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,360 Speaker 1: and forgiven of your sins to be with him forever. 625 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:12,400 Speaker 1: The good shepherds lays down his life for the sheep. 626 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:19,799 Speaker 1: Not beautiful. Jesus's joy was you, you said, you not going 627 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:24,879 Speaker 1: to hell, you not being lost. How magnificent you were 628 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:28,240 Speaker 1: the reason he went through it. And then the Father said, 629 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:34,279 Speaker 1: all right, some too. You did what I wanted you 630 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 1: to do. Now I'll make the nations your inheritance. The 631 00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: whole earth belongs to you. And so Jesus is coming 632 00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 1: back as the rightful ruler of planet Earth. It's over 633 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:48,399 Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty references to his second coming. It's 634 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:50,880 Speaker 1: not a notion or theory. It's a biblicy. If you 635 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 1: believe that Jesus was resurrected from the dead, then you 636 00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 1: believe he's coming back. I'll watched an interview with Joe Rogan. 637 00:37:58,120 --> 00:37:59,759 Speaker 1: I was kind of frustrated because he was asking for 638 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:02,880 Speaker 1: for the resurrection, like, you know, hard to believe, you know, 639 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:04,839 Speaker 1: Like they had a lot low the way back then, 640 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:07,759 Speaker 1: they had a lot of mythology and stuff, and I 641 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 1: just wish that you know the person talking to him, 642 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 1: what has said to him. Well, the proof that he's 643 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,919 Speaker 1: resien from the dead is the fact that nobody knew 644 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 1: where his body was. How could the most conspicuous trial 645 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:22,319 Speaker 1: of the century going on in Jerusalem have a guy 646 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:26,279 Speaker 1: taken down off across stabbed through the heart by a 647 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:30,640 Speaker 1: Roman centurion, blood comes out. He's been crucified, whipped to death. 648 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 1: You're not exactly in a condition to fake anyone out. 649 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:37,880 Speaker 1: If he revives, he's going to be in a critical 650 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 1: condition for a while. So in three days, Hey, I'm 651 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 1: resurrected for that hardly makes sense. That's the passover plot 652 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:48,040 Speaker 1: theory of a goofy book. But the other theory is 653 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,800 Speaker 1: who what happened to the body? Do you think that 654 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:56,080 Speaker 1: the Jewish people stole the body? This man's an impostor. 655 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 1: He said he would raise from the dead, and now 656 00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 1: they're saying he's ready from the dead. But what we've 657 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,840 Speaker 1: got the corpse, here's your Messiah. Take a whiff and 658 00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:08,320 Speaker 1: hang them up in the public square. No, these enemies 659 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 1: couldn't do that because they didn't know where the body was. Well, 660 00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:15,920 Speaker 1: how about those Disciples. You know, they were pretty bold 661 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:21,239 Speaker 1: and powerful. Oh they went. They even admit they were 662 00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:24,720 Speaker 1: hiding for fear of the Jews. This isn't your bold 663 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 1: group of commandos. These guys ran splitsty right from the garden. 664 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,719 Speaker 1: They were hiding for fear of what would happen to them. 665 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:37,319 Speaker 1: Hard to believe our movements started. This is an embarrassing way. 666 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:38,560 Speaker 1: And you know what, if I was writing my own 667 00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:40,800 Speaker 1: story here and these guys got together and wrote this book, 668 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 1: I would have changed that. I would have said, I mean, 669 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:44,799 Speaker 1: they were full of strength and faith and said here 670 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,719 Speaker 1: you will prodio. But they don't. They go. We were 671 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:53,560 Speaker 1: kind of Peter's backslid. He's cussing, went back fishing the 672 00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 1: night even knew you. The strongest one among them broke. Now, 673 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 1: the Disciples didn't steal the body either. Well see the 674 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,240 Speaker 1: Disciples didn't steal the body. The Romans had a guard. 675 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,120 Speaker 1: They wouldn't steal the body. The Jews didn't steal the y. 676 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:11,239 Speaker 1: Where in the world is the body of Jesus. That's 677 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:12,760 Speaker 1: the great question of the ages. 678 00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 3: As he's raisident from the dead because his body's with 679 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 3: him and he came resurrected quantum physics, appeared, disappeared, walked 680 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:24,240 Speaker 3: through objects quantum realm, and then. 681 00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 1: Went up from the amount of olives up to heaven. 682 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 1: And the Angel said, he's coming back, just like you 683 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 1: saw him go same Jesus and zechar Ria. The prophet 684 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:35,239 Speaker 1: said it, And like Zich writes two over thirteen, he 685 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:37,799 Speaker 1: the Messiah shall come in his feet shall touch the 686 00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 1: mount of Olives. So the very mount of Ollves he 687 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 1: went up on five hundred years before he went up, 688 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 1: the prophet got GPS coordinates on where the location would 689 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:49,800 Speaker 1: be the Mount of Olives. Can't make that stuff up, baby, 690 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,040 Speaker 1: that's wild. I mean, why am I telling you that 691 00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 1: Jesus saw the joy he would succeed. He got a 692 00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 1: foretaste of what it would be like. So we endured 693 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:02,880 Speaker 1: the process, and so you have to endure the process. 694 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 1: It's now obviously this is the ultimate process. But what 695 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:10,399 Speaker 1: I want you to catch is this idea in your 696 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 1: own life. I want to break this down so that 697 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 1: it makes sense to you. How does this apply to you? Well, 698 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 1: let me go this way. I want to say that 699 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,360 Speaker 1: in your own life. Oh man, four minutes. How do 700 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 1: I do this? Well? In your own life? You have 701 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:28,840 Speaker 1: a certain amount of skill, right, and you have a 702 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 1: certain amount of wisdom, and let's face it, your ability 703 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: to do something and your knowledge of what to do, 704 00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 1: that's pretty important. I mean, I would say that anything 705 00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 1: you want to attain in life, if it's like a 706 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:43,319 Speaker 1: level ten life or level five, level one, five ten, 707 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 1: that if you want to attain something really significant, My 708 00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:49,360 Speaker 1: whole premise is you're going to have to play life 709 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:51,799 Speaker 1: at a level ten. What I'm looking for is then 710 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:55,000 Speaker 1: intersection right here of level ten living. Well, what's this 711 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:58,799 Speaker 1: bottom grapt down here? If that's wisdom and skill up there, 712 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:05,239 Speaker 1: this is the journey of the heart down here. The 713 00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 1: Bible says that with skillfulness of handed, integrity of heart, 714 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 1: David Shepherd of them. So what the Lord's looking for 715 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:15,920 Speaker 1: is the integrity of heart, and so part of the 716 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 1: supernatural life that is the life you want to live 717 00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 1: up here in this realm up there is going to 718 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:28,160 Speaker 1: be the life that has lived because you have the 719 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:30,440 Speaker 1: heart that God. And now if God's working on your 720 00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:34,279 Speaker 1: character over here, right, let me put it in this way. 721 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:39,920 Speaker 1: God says, I want you to be able to I 722 00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 1: want you to be able to function at a level 723 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:44,840 Speaker 1: ten ten. This is like what I believe is the 724 00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 1: abundant life level ten ten. Then your heart, this is 725 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:53,600 Speaker 1: the emotional journey down here. You should have integrity of heart. 726 00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:57,640 Speaker 1: And what are the two characteristics of the kingdom. The 727 00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:02,759 Speaker 1: two characters of the kingdom are joy and peace. So 728 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:06,279 Speaker 1: the Lord says righteous as peace and joy. So how 729 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:09,879 Speaker 1: you show up is down here. You could call this 730 00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 1: your ultimate state, the state of being you see every 731 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:20,600 Speaker 1: notice something. You could know what you should do, but 732 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:24,240 Speaker 1: if you aren't in the right state, it still doesn't 733 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 1: come off right. Meaning let's say you know how to communicate, 734 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:33,279 Speaker 1: but your moody or you're depressed, or you're heavy. I 735 00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 1: want to do zoom call management with people. Do you 736 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:37,040 Speaker 1: have any idea what it's like to look at people 737 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:40,440 Speaker 1: that are gloom gloomy clouds on a zoom call? Oh? 738 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:42,319 Speaker 1: I got It's like, dear God, I'm going to get 739 00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:43,759 Speaker 1: a picture of be in sented to you right now. 740 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 1: Give me some energy, like learn how to smile. My 741 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:50,680 Speaker 1: point is this without trying to make this technical to 742 00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:55,839 Speaker 1: the point of losing its reverence, Jesus was fully operating 743 00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:59,960 Speaker 1: in the flow of his gifts, talents, abilities, is calling, 744 00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 1: and he had the ultimate integrity of heart. He lived 745 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,760 Speaker 1: the life that modeled what convergence is. He was doing 746 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 1: the thing he was called to do, using the gifts, talents, 747 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:14,360 Speaker 1: and abilities the Father had given him. And by the way, 748 00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:18,360 Speaker 1: Jesus didn't start off fully developed. The Bible says he increased. 749 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:24,440 Speaker 1: Oh that's not heresy. He increased in wisdom and in 750 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:29,800 Speaker 1: stature and in favor with God and man. That means 751 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:35,040 Speaker 1: that Jesus grew. Oh there's a concept. Jesus at ten 752 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 1: years old, was Jesus at fifteen years old, Jesus a 753 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:39,840 Speaker 1: twenty year old, and then at thirty in the fullest 754 00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:44,240 Speaker 1: of time, the full stature was ready for his work. 755 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:50,880 Speaker 1: Jesus increased, and so must you. So I'm trying to 756 00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:53,320 Speaker 1: say is you have to be kind of like honest 757 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:57,040 Speaker 1: with yourself in terms of where you are in your 758 00:44:57,080 --> 00:45:00,480 Speaker 1: emotional journey. Because my premise is this, I don't think 759 00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:04,920 Speaker 1: I'm that far off. If you're at a level five emotionally, 760 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:07,200 Speaker 1: you're up and down and up and down. Your moods 761 00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:10,120 Speaker 1: are going to affect your decision making. And by the way, 762 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 1: if you're hit and miss in terms of sometimes you 763 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:14,640 Speaker 1: get it right, sometimes you don't get it right, This 764 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:17,600 Speaker 1: is how much you're leaving on the table in terms 765 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:21,400 Speaker 1: of life. That's why I like to get a strategy 766 00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:26,919 Speaker 1: for the finances, a strategy for the marriage, a strategy 767 00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:30,200 Speaker 1: for my physical life. This isn't like easy. I'm not 768 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 1: telling you it's easy, but I'm saying that that's important 769 00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:37,759 Speaker 1: because your personal capacity down here will determine your endurance 770 00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:39,840 Speaker 1: to be able to get to the crown, which is 771 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 1: right there. So here's the pieces I want to give 772 00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:48,759 Speaker 1: it to you. Now. All that to say this, this 773 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:56,360 Speaker 1: here is the strategy for success. But this down here, 774 00:45:56,400 --> 00:46:01,200 Speaker 1: managing the heart is the art of fulfillment. You not 775 00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 1: only have to have a strategy, skills and wisdom from 776 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:05,839 Speaker 1: where you want to go and what you want to do, 777 00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 1: but you have to learn the art. And the art 778 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:12,319 Speaker 1: is statement, the art of the heart, the art of 779 00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:15,000 Speaker 1: being able to keep yourself in close proximity of the 780 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,319 Speaker 1: presence of God, the art of being able to take 781 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:20,600 Speaker 1: the slings and arrows and pain and distress and be 782 00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:23,400 Speaker 1: able to recycle it and turn it back into a 783 00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 1: way of building your strength by learning how to put 784 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:30,279 Speaker 1: it upon God and let it hold it, cast your 785 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 1: care on Him, and you'll do it every day twenty 786 00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:34,840 Speaker 1: four hours a day, comes back here. Next morning, you 787 00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:37,840 Speaker 1: throw it back on the Father. He takes it and 788 00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:40,920 Speaker 1: he'll give you the wisdom. And what am I looking for? 789 00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:45,560 Speaker 1: What's the keyword here? I'm telling you to endure the 790 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:49,879 Speaker 1: process because as God is moving and expanding you and 791 00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:53,719 Speaker 1: stretching you, you're going to learn things you don't know 792 00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:55,839 Speaker 1: how to do. You're going to encounter your own stupidity. 793 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:57,360 Speaker 1: You're going to find it you're not as good at 794 00:46:57,400 --> 00:47:00,200 Speaker 1: doing what you thought you were responsing. Hey man, right, 795 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:02,960 Speaker 1: you try ever, try to hire or fire. It's a 796 00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:07,200 Speaker 1: skill as well as a knowledge who to hire, how 797 00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:09,960 Speaker 1: to bring organizational alignment. It's a lot too that you're 798 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:11,919 Speaker 1: going to grow a business or a ministry or a team. 799 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:13,960 Speaker 1: You're gonna have to learn how to do that stuff 800 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:17,160 Speaker 1: and the emotional dream. And you're always doing it from 801 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:22,239 Speaker 1: a place of groundedness, where the art is the heart, 802 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:25,320 Speaker 1: and you're keeping it before the Father and you're walking 803 00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 1: in peace with all men. Not easy, but then again, 804 00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:33,799 Speaker 1: that's why only twenty percent hit the conversion zone. I 805 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:35,680 Speaker 1: want you to go there, all right. I got to 806 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:37,800 Speaker 1: sign off now.
