Bill. Very overjoyed to come to 43 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 4: you from the beautiful AT and T Ballpark in San Francisco, California. 44 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 4: I'm with some of the finest people in all of 45 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 4: San Francisco right here. Love having you with us as well. 46 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 4: I always start with something funny, and I heard about 47 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 4: this man. He called the church office and said, I 48 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 4: want to speak to the head hog at the trough. 49 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 4: The secretary was offended. She said, if you mean the pastor, 50 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 4: you're going to have to call him pastor, but you 51 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 4: may not call him the head hog at the trough. 52 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 4: He said, we'll find. But I was thinking about making 53 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 4: a five thousand dollars donation to your church. She said, 54 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 4: hang on, Porky just walked in. Would you say it 55 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 4: with me? This is my Bible. I am what it 56 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 4: says I am. I have what it says I have. 57 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 4: I can do what it says I can do. Tonight 58 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 4: I will be talked to word of God. I boldly 59 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 4: confess my mind is alert, my heart is receptive. I 60 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 4: will never be the same in Jesus, Amen, God bless you. 61 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 4: I want to talk to you today about the second touch. 62 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 4: In the scripture, some people brought a blind man to Jesus. 63 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,919 Speaker 4: You'd never been able to see, and Jesus made mud 64 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 4: in his hands and put it on the man's eyes. 65 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 4: Instantly his eyes were open. You can imagine how thrilled 66 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 4: he was. For the first time he could see light, color, trees, 67 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 4: the sky. He was overcome with excitement. His life had 68 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 4: just totally changed. Then Jesus asked him an interesting question. 69 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 4: He said to the man, what do you see. It's 70 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 4: as if Jesus already knew something wasn't quite perfect. The 71 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 4: man answered back, I can see, but I see men 72 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 4: walking as trees. He was saying, I'm grateful that I 73 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 4: can see, but it's blurry, not complaining, thankful that I 74 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 4: have any sight, but everything is out of focus. Jesus 75 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 4: could have walked away, said well, I made it much better. 76 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 4: Be on your way, have a great life. That could 77 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 4: have been the end of the story. But God didn't 78 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 4: come to just make you better, to make you okay, 79 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 4: to make you get by. He came to make you 80 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 4: totally whole, to live an abundant, healthy, happy, free, victorious life. 81 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 4: The scripture says Jesus touched the blind man again. On 82 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 4: this second touch, his eyes were completely healed. Everything came 83 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 4: into focus. Now he had perfect vision. Many of us 84 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 4: are like this blind man. We've seen God's goodness. He's 85 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 4: helped us to get to where we are. We're grateful 86 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 4: even though we haven't broken the addiction, even though we 87 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 4: haven't accomplished a dream, even though a child is still 88 00:04:55,920 --> 00:05:00,359 Speaker 4: off course, we're thankful for what God has done. Like 89 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 4: the blind man, He's made it a whole lot better. 90 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 4: While we shouldn't be content where we are, we shouldn't 91 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 4: be satisfied with mediocrity. Too often we settle for less 92 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 4: than God's best, thinking, I'll never break this addiction, but 93 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 4: at least I've learned to live with it. I'll never 94 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 4: get married, but at least I have a few friends. 95 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 4: I'll never get out of debt, Joel, but at least 96 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 4: I can pay my bills. You're right where the blind 97 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 4: man was saying. Everything is blurry, but at least I 98 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:37,359 Speaker 4: can see something. I'm not complaining. I'm satisfied to be better. 99 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 4: Here's the key. You may be satisfied, but God is 100 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 4: not satisfied. He has a second touch come in your way. 101 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 4: The second touch is when you come totally out of debt, 102 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 4: when you're free from the addiction, when the medical report 103 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 4: says no more sickness, when your whole family comes to 104 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 4: know the Lord. The second touch is when God, God 105 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 4: opens doors you never dreamed would open. When he amazes 106 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 4: you with his goodness. Be grateful for what God has done, 107 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 4: but don't be satisfied with better. God didn't create us 108 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 4: to reach half of our destiny. Three fourths or ninety 109 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 4: percent of what God started in your life He's going 110 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 4: to bring to completion. Now I'm not just trying to 111 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 4: encourage you, trying to make you feel better. I'm prophesying 112 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 4: a second touch is come in your way. And when 113 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 4: this second touch kicks in, you're going to see favor 114 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 4: that you've never seen. The right people are going to 115 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:40,359 Speaker 4: show up, freedom from strongholds, a new level of your destiny. 116 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 4: Now you have to let this seed take root. You 117 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 4: have to get in agreement with God. He can't go 118 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 4: around thinking that you've reached your limits. You'll never get well, 119 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 4: never be promoted, joelong, never see clearly. It's been blurry 120 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 4: for so long in my life. Thinking like that will 121 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 4: stop God's best. Quit declaring defeat over your life. Quit 122 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 4: prophesying mediocrity. It may be blurry, but it's not a 123 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 4: surprise to God. He's not scratching his head thinking why 124 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 4: didn't they get clear vision. God controls the whole universe. 125 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 4: He has all power. What he's destined for your life 126 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 4: will come to pass now. It may not happen all 127 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 4: at once while we're waiting. That's a test of our faith. 128 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 4: Don't get discouraged when things happen you don't understand. Don't 129 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 4: give up. You always face your greatest opposition when you're 130 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 4: closest to your victory. The enemy wouldn't be fighting you 131 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 4: so hard if he didn't know. God had something amazing 132 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 4: in front of you. You have to dig your heels in. Say. 133 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 4: It may be blurry, may be taking a long time. 134 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 4: I don't understand it, but I know a secret. The 135 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 4: Second Touch is coming. God is still on the throne. 136 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 4: His plans will to be are for good, and any 137 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 4: moment things could change in my favor. When you live 138 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 4: with this expectancy, that's what allows God to do great things. 139 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 4: You don't know. The Second Touch could happen today. You 140 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 4: could meet the person of your dreams tomorrow. That health 141 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 4: issue could turn around. The loan could go through this week. 142 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 4: There are second touches already ordained to come across your path. 143 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 4: God doesn't do things half hearted. He's the author and 144 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 4: the finisher. It may look impossible, but God can do 145 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 4: the impossible. People may try to talk you out of it, 146 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 4: but people don't have the final say. God does get 147 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 4: up every morning and think him for your second touch. Lord, 148 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 4: I'm grateful that I have a job. I'm grateful that 149 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 4: I can pay my bills, but I'm still in debt. God, 150 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 4: I'm asking for your second touch. The second touch is 151 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,559 Speaker 4: when you come into overflow, when you come into more 152 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 4: than enough. For Lord, I'm feeling better, I make it 153 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 4: in progress, but I'm still struggling with this illness. Lord, 154 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 4: I'm asking for the completion of your healing. Or God, 155 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 4: I went through a bad break. I lost a loved one. 156 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 4: It's kind of blurry in my life right now. God, 157 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 4: I'm asking, just like you did for that blind man, 158 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 4: touch me again. Restore my joy, my passion, my vision. God, 159 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 4: give me a new beginning. I spoke along these lines 160 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 4: a while back about how God can suddenly shift things. 161 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 4: I received a letter from a young man that plays 162 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 4: high school football. He told how when he heard me 163 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 4: say this phrase that a shift is coming, something came 164 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 4: alive on the inside. He didn't just hear it think 165 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 4: oh yeah right, it's not gonna happen for me. He 166 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 4: let the seed take root. He started telling people a 167 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:52,319 Speaker 4: shift was coming. He was the running back on his team, 168 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:55,319 Speaker 4: and people told him he was too small, that he 169 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 4: would never be successful playing football, that he should try 170 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 4: another sport. The team was playing very badly, losing game 171 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 4: after game. He was so fired up he got his 172 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 4: whole team saying this before the game, that a shift 173 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 4: is coming. Things are changing in our favor. He started 174 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 4: playing better and better. They made the playoffs. In the 175 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 4: state final, he scored four touchdowns in one game, the 176 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 4: most of his career, plus the winning touchdown with two 177 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 4: seconds left in the game. He was named the ABC 178 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 4: High School Player of the Week. In their yearbook, they 179 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 4: could put one quote under their picture. His quote was, 180 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 4: A shift is coming. I wonder what would happen if 181 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 4: we would go out with this same expectancy, believing that 182 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:47,439 Speaker 4: the second touch is coming, not just hearing a message, 183 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 4: but letting a seed take root, expecting a dream to 184 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:55,479 Speaker 4: come to pass, expecting to get healthy in home, expecting 185 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 4: God to finish what he started. Well, Joel, this sounds good, 186 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 4: but I've had some setbacks. I've been taking this treatment 187 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 4: for cancer on and off for the last ten years. 188 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 4: That's why I'm discouraged. I don't think I'll ever get well. 189 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,559 Speaker 4: Just because you gave up doesn't mean God gave up. 190 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 4: God is not satisfied with better. He's gonna take you 191 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 4: to the fullness of your destiny. David said, God lifted 192 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 4: me out of a pit and set my feet upon 193 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 4: a rock. Sometimes even though we're content to stay in 194 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 4: the pit, God is not content. He's not gonna give 195 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 4: you a choice. He's gonna lift you out of that pit. 196 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 4: He's gonna set your feet towards your destiny. You didn't 197 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 4: think it's gonna happen. You thought you were stuck where 198 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 4: you are. But then one touch of God's favor. Suddenly 199 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 4: your health improved, Suddenly you met the right person. Suddenly 200 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 4: a new door of opportunity was in anything you did. 201 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 4: It was simply the goodness of God his second touch. 202 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 4: One Kings, chapter nineteen. The prophet Elijah had just seen 203 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 4: one of the greatest victories of his life. Four hundred 204 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 4: false prophets that worshiped the God bail had come against him. 205 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 4: Elijah said to them, since you think your God is real, 206 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 4: let's have a contest. They both put wood on an altar. 207 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 4: The God that lit the wood on fire would be 208 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 4: the true God. Elijah let them go first. They prayed, 209 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 4: saying dance chanted. Hour after hour, still no fire. When 210 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 4: it was Elijah's time, he prayed, and God sent lightning 211 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 4: and started the wood on fire. Later, all four hundred 212 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 4: of those prophets were killed. It's a great victory for Elijah. Well, 213 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,359 Speaker 4: there was a lady there by the name of Jezebel. 214 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 4: When she heard what happened to those prophets, she was furious. 215 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 4: She sent word to Elijah saying, if I don't kill 216 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 4: you by this time tomorrow, I'm gonna kill myself. Elijah 217 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 4: took off running for his life. It's funny. He wasn't 218 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 4: afraid of four hundred men, but you were scared the 219 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 4: death of one angry woman. When you have an angry woman, 220 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 4: you need God's help. Elijah ran far away from that place. 221 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 4: He was sitting under a tree, so depressed that he 222 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 4: didn't want to live. He said, God, I'm done, it's over, 223 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 4: Just take my life here. He had just seen this 224 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 4: great miracle, and the problem now is he's tired. He's 225 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 4: tired of believing, he's tired of standing strong, he's tired 226 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 4: of staying in faith. Maybe like Elijah, you've been doing 227 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 4: the right thing for a long time, believing, praying, standing 228 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 4: in faith. You've seen God's goodness in the past. Now 229 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 4: you're tired. You've lost your drive, your passion. You don't 230 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 4: think you'll ever really get well. You've had the sickness 231 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 4: so long you're not believing to start that business anymore. 232 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:59,439 Speaker 4: You've had too many setbacks. The good news is God 233 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 4: doesn't get up on us when we get tired, when 234 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 4: we get discouraged. When Jesus was on his way to 235 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 4: the cross, about to be crucified, he got so tired, 236 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 4: so weak, that he fell down. He couldn't carry it anymore. 237 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 4: God didn't say, Jesus, what are you doing. Get up? 238 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 4: You're making me look bad. He sent a man by 239 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 4: the name of Simon to carry the cross for him. 240 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 4: God knew there would be times that we would get tired, 241 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 4: fall down, be discouraged, give up on a dream. He 242 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 4: doesn't say, too bad, you should have had more faith. No, 243 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 4: he'll send somebody to help lift you back up, somebody 244 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 4: to breathe new life into your dreams. Maybe I'm that 245 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 4: somebody for you today. You're not here by accident. God 246 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 4: is saying the best part of your life is still 247 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 4: out in front of you. He has new friendships, new opportunities, 248 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 4: new victories, new mountains for you to climb. But sometimes 249 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 4: we think, because we're people of faith, we're supposed to 250 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 4: be superman, superwoman. Never have an ounce of doubt, a 251 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 4: moment of discouragement. Take the pressure off yourself. You don't 252 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 4: have to be strong all the time. Even Jesus fell 253 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 4: down under the weight of the cross. You may be 254 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 4: down right now, not pursuing your dreams, not passionate about life, tired. 255 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 4: God has you here to lift you, to help you 256 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 4: get back up, to remind you that he's not finished 257 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 4: with you. He's going to bring you out of that pit. 258 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 4: He's gonna set your feet on a rock. He's going 259 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 4: to move you towards your destiny. This season will pass. 260 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 4: The second touch is coming. Elijah was so depressed he 261 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 4: didn't want to live. He's sitting under that tree. You 262 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 4: would think God would say, come on, Elijah, I just 263 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 4: rained down fire from heaven, just showed you by favor 264 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 4: my protection. And you mean you're gonna let this one woman, 265 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 4: one bad break, one disappointment cause you to get discouraged 266 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 4: and give up what's wrong with you? 267 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 6: Now? 268 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 4: God doesn't disqualify us when we don't stand strong enough. 269 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 4: The scripture says, the Angel of the Lord came a 270 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 4: second time to Elijah and touched him, saying, arise and eat. 271 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 4: When he woke up, he saw bread cooking over some 272 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 4: coals and a jar of water. God not only gave 273 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 4: him the bread and water. God took it one step further. 274 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 4: He cooked the food for him. God could have given 275 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 4: him the strength to go out and hunt and find food, 276 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 4: find water, come back in the firewood, cook it himself. 277 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 4: That would have been nice. Here's how good God is. 278 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 4: On this second touch. God's going to bring things to you. 279 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 4: He's going to cause blessings to chase you down. He's 280 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 4: going to make things happen that you could have never 281 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 4: made happen. You may have been through some disappointments, people, 282 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 4: circumstances have come against you, and now you settle where 283 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 4: you are not expecting anything good. Every voice tells you 284 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 4: it's never going to happen. Don't believe those lives. Just 285 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 4: like Elijah, the Angel of the Lord is coming a 286 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 4: second time. This second touch is not only going to 287 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 4: give you a new fire, new passion. But it's going 288 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 4: to push you into your destiny. The second touch is 289 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:22,960 Speaker 4: when you'll see clearly, you'll have wisdom, the right door's open, 290 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 4: things fall into place, You'll step into your purpose. Why 291 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 4: don't you shake off the disappointments, shake off what didn't 292 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 4: work out? Say God, I know you're still in control 293 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 4: of my life. I've had these bad breaks, things come 294 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,880 Speaker 4: against me. But God, I'm not going to settle here. 295 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 4: I'm not going to give up with a dream. I 296 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,360 Speaker 4: know your second touch is coming. If you'll do that, 297 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 4: God will not only bring you the provision. He'll not 298 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,160 Speaker 4: only give you the food and water, so to speak, 299 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 4: but he'll cook the food for you. He'll do more 300 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 4: than you can ask or think. But too often we 301 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 4: stay focused on the negative. What didn't work out, how 302 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,919 Speaker 4: long it's taken, who heard us, how unfair it was 303 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 4: that causes us to get stuck. You can talk yourself 304 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 4: out of your destiny. This is what Abraham's father did. 305 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 4: His name was Tera. He had three sons. One of 306 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,959 Speaker 4: his sons, a young man named Haran, died at an 307 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 4: early age. Tara went through this great disappointment the loss 308 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 4: of a son. Years later, God told Tara to leave 309 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 4: the place they were living and go to Canaan, the 310 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 4: Promised Land. Tara packed up his family and they hided 311 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:41,640 Speaker 4: that way toward the Promised Land. But when they came 312 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 4: to the city of Haran, the same name of the 313 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 4: son he had lost. Instead of passing through it, continuing 314 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 4: on toward the Promised Land, the scripture says Tera settled 315 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 4: in the city of Haraan started off good, but when 316 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 4: he came to the place that rom minded him of 317 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 4: the son, he had lost, the place of his greatest disappointment. 318 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,639 Speaker 4: He got discouraged, gave up on his dream, told everybody, 319 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 4: I'm sure I should go forward. Promised Land is probably 320 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,880 Speaker 4: in front of us, but look, I've been through too much. 321 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,880 Speaker 4: I've been hurt too many times. Let's just settle here. 322 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 4: Tera could have become the father of many nations instead 323 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 4: of Abraham. He's the original one God told to go 324 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 4: to the Promised Land. We could talk about the God 325 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 4: of Terah, Abraham and Isaac instead of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. 326 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 4: It could have started one generation sooner. But Tara chose 327 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 4: to settle. He didn't realize God had a second touch, 328 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,160 Speaker 4: that God can give beauty for ashes, that God can 329 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 4: turn mourning into dancing, that God can take what's meant 330 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 4: for harm and use it to our advantage. Instead, he 331 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 4: chose to stay focused on the pain. I don't know. 332 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:01,159 Speaker 4: Maybe he had a good excuse lost loved one. But 333 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 4: if he could have just dug his heels in and said, no, 334 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 4: i am not going to settle in Haram. I'm not 335 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 4: going to stay in the place of my greatest pain. 336 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 4: I'm going to keep moving forward, knowing that a second 337 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,680 Speaker 4: touch is coming, knowing that God will pay me back 338 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 4: for this trouble. He would have done that, he would 339 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:23,880 Speaker 4: have been listed as one of the heroes of faith. Friends, 340 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 4: don't let one loss, one disappointment, one bad break cause 341 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 4: you to settle. We all face things we don't understand. 342 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:36,159 Speaker 4: Life is not always fair. The key is you have 343 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 4: to pass through the place of your greatest pain, pass 344 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,400 Speaker 4: through the hurt, the rejection, the failure, the mistake. If 345 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 4: you'll keep moving forward, you'll come in to your promised land. 346 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 4: God will give you beauty for ashes. The scripture says 347 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 4: He'll pay you back double for the unfair situations. You 348 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:59,160 Speaker 4: remember Job, he went through a great disappointment, He lost 349 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:03,360 Speaker 4: his health, his business, his family, but in the end 350 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 4: God restored twice back to him. Job had ten children 351 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 4: that were killed in a terrible storm, a great tragedy. 352 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 4: He was devastated, but later on God gave Job ten 353 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 4: more children. He had ten in heaven, ten on earth. Double. 354 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 4: And what's interesting is the scripture never says that Job 355 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:28,200 Speaker 4: married a younger wife. The same wife that had given 356 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 4: him ten children before, gave him ten more children. God 357 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 4: opened that womb once again in the natural. She was 358 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:39,199 Speaker 4: too old, she was done, couldn't have any more children, 359 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:43,119 Speaker 4: looked like her womb was dead. But when God saw 360 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 4: the trouble the enemy had cost her, God said to her, 361 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 4: in effect, don't worry. I'm going to bring back to 362 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 4: life your dead wound, that wound that's been closed, I'm 363 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 4: gonna open it once again. You're gonna have ten more children. 364 00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,360 Speaker 4: I don't know if she is happy or depressed about that, 365 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:03,360 Speaker 4: but God did that for Victoria. He'd have to bring 366 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 4: me back to life. Bottom line, she gave birth to 367 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 4: ten more children. What am I saying? The enemy cannot 368 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,679 Speaker 4: stop God's plan for your life. He may try, but 369 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 4: he can't do it. God has the final say. Now 370 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 4: you may have something that looks dead. You tried, it 371 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 4: didn't work. As it's been a long time, you need 372 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 4: to get ready for the second touch. On the second touch, 373 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:32,159 Speaker 4: God's going to reopen what was closed. He's going to 374 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 4: bring back to life what was dead. He's going to 375 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,199 Speaker 4: pay you back for that trouble. Don't settle in the 376 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,119 Speaker 4: place of your greatest pain. The second touch is coming. 377 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 4: I was in Washington, d c. Earlier this year and 378 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,199 Speaker 4: this mom told about her son. He's a soldier serving 379 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 4: in our military overseas, and she received a phone call 380 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,160 Speaker 4: in the middle of the night say that her son 381 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 4: had been gravely wounded in action. They were flying him 382 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 4: to Germany. Didn't think that he would make it through 383 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,120 Speaker 4: the night. She and her husband jumped on the next 384 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 4: flight out. When they arrived, her son was still alive, 385 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 4: hanging by a thread in a coma. The doctor said 386 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 4: it would just be a matter of hours before he 387 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 4: would pass. A lot of people would have given up, 388 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:20,919 Speaker 4: but this soldier had a praying mother. She knew that 389 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 4: God has the final say that God can bring back 390 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 4: to life, resurrect what looked dead. She was doing her 391 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 4: best to stay in faith, but she asked God to 392 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,879 Speaker 4: give her a sign. When the doctors and all the 393 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 4: specialists finally left the hospital room after giving her the 394 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 4: grim prognosis about her son, the nurse walked in, looked 395 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 4: at the mother in the eyes, and she said, don't 396 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 4: worry about your son. He's going to be fine. When 397 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 4: he arrived last night, he opened his eyes and looked 398 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 4: at me. And when he did, I could see God 399 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 4: in his eyes. Against all odds, he made it through 400 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 4: that night, and the next and the next Today, several 401 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 4: years later, he's still alive, on the road to recovery, 402 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,399 Speaker 4: getting better and better. When it looked like it was over, 403 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 4: the second touch kicked in. God breathed new life into 404 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 4: his body. Your situation may look dead, in your health, 405 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 4: relationship of business, you don't think how it could ever 406 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:24,159 Speaker 4: work out. But God didn't bring you this far to 407 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 4: leave you. There's a second touch coming. The first touch 408 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 4: got you to this point. The second touch is when 409 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 4: you see it turn around, when you see your health restored, 410 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 4: when your business takes off. The second touch is when 411 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:42,880 Speaker 4: you say, I can see clearly now the dream came 412 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 4: to pass, the problem resolved. God finished what he started. 413 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 4: Anybody can give up, anybody can say it's never gonna happen. 414 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:55,719 Speaker 4: That's easy, doubters or a dime a dozen. But it 415 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 4: takes a man or woman of great faith, somebody like 416 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 4: you to say I may not see away, but I 417 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 4: know God still has a way. I'm not gonna give up. 418 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 4: I'm not gonna settle. I'm not gonna be talked out 419 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,879 Speaker 4: of it. I know my second touch is coming. God 420 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 4: did it for others, he can do it for me. 421 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:18,439 Speaker 4: Moses said in Psalm ninety, God, show us gladness for 422 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 4: the former misery. Replace the difficult years with good. God, 423 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,880 Speaker 4: let us see your miracles again. He was saying, God, 424 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 4: I'm in a tough time. Things haven't been going my way. 425 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:33,199 Speaker 4: But God, I'm asking for your second touch. Show us 426 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 4: miracles again. When you face difficulties, do like Moses. Lord, 427 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:44,679 Speaker 4: touch me again, heal me again, strengthen me again, amaze 428 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:48,639 Speaker 4: me again. Dare to ask for the second touch. In 429 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 4: the scripture, there was a lady named Elizabeth. She and 430 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 4: her husband Zachariah were well up there in years, and 431 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 4: they'd never had any children. God spoke to Zachariah and 432 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 4: said they will going to have a son. They were 433 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:05,200 Speaker 4: to name him John. He later became known as John 434 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 4: the Baptist. Even though Elizabeth in the natural was too old, 435 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 4: she conceived she was pregnant with little John, but for 436 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,719 Speaker 4: the first six months she didn't feel hardly any movement 437 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,399 Speaker 4: in her womb, and she was very concerned something was 438 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 4: wrong with the baby. One day, her young cousin Mary 439 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 4: came to visit her. She was pregnant with Jesus. When 440 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 4: Elizabeth saw Mary, the scripture says, the baby leaped in 441 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 4: Elizabeth's womb. She knew John was alive and well. That 442 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 4: was the first time John the Baptist ever met Jesus, 443 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 4: technically still in the womb. Fast forward thirty years later, 444 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:48,160 Speaker 4: John is baptizing people in the Jordan River. He sees 445 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 4: Jesus walking up, points his finger and says, behold the 446 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 4: lamb of God. Jesus asked John to baptize him. When 447 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 4: he came up out of the water, the heavens opened up. 448 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,959 Speaker 4: The first time John met Jesus, his mother's womb opened up, 449 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 4: a natural occurrence. The second time they met, the heavens 450 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 4: opened up a supernatural occurrence. This second touch is not 451 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 4: going to be ordinary, It's not going to be natural. 452 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 4: Not what you were thinking. It's going to launch you 453 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 4: into a new dimension, into a new level. God's going 454 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 4: to take you where you could not go on your own. Now. 455 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 4: You may have seen God's goodness in the past, but 456 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 4: you haven't seen anything yet. You need to get ready. 457 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 4: The Second Touch is coming. It's not too late to 458 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 4: accomplish your dreams. You can still live healthy and whole. 459 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:44,679 Speaker 4: You can still overcome that obstacle. Don't get discouraged and 460 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 4: settled where you are. Don't get stuck in the place 461 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 4: of pain, the place of disappointment. Keep moving forward. There's 462 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 4: a promised land in front of you. The best part 463 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 4: of your life is still in your future. I'm asking 464 00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 4: you to stir your faith up, get your passion back, 465 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 4: get up every morning and say, with Moses, Lord, thank 466 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 4: you for your second Touch. If you'll do this, I 467 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 4: believe and declare. Just like the blind Man, You're going 468 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 4: to see the completion of what God started. Like Elijah, 469 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,639 Speaker 4: God's not only going to strengthen you, but he's going 470 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 4: to bring you the provision. He's going to do more 471 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 4: than you can ask or think. And like John the Baptist, 472 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,880 Speaker 4: God's going to launch you into a new dimension, into 473 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 4: the fullness of your destiny in Jesus' name, and if 474 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 4: you receive it tonight, can you say amen. We want 475 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,439 Speaker 4: to give you the same opportunity that I gave everyone 476 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 4: here at the stadium, and that is to make Jesus 477 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 4: the Lord of your life. Would you pray with me? 478 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 4: Just say, Lord, Jesus, I repent of my sins. Come 479 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 4: into my heart. I make you my Lord and savior. Friends, 480 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 4: if you prayed that simple prayer, we believe you got 481 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 4: born again.
