I believe God has amazing things in your future. 35 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 3: I hope you enjoy this message. I was talking to 36 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 3: a girl the other day who had had a breakup 37 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 3: in her relationship, and she was so disheartened. She said 38 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 3: that she thought this relationship was on the right track. 39 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 3: She thought that it could even be headed towards marriage. 40 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 3: And then one day he came to her and he said, 41 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 3: I'm taking a job in another state. Well, she was 42 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 3: so discouraged. She thought, what's happening. When she began to 43 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 3: think about how he could leave so quickly, it began 44 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,360 Speaker 3: to demoralize her. She thought, Wow, I'm not as special 45 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 3: as I thought I was. I guess he didn't love 46 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 3: me like I thought he loved me. 47 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 5: She said. 48 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 3: I began to dwell on these thoughts, and I became 49 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 3: more discouraged. She said, you know, I was just really 50 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 3: just trying to make sense of it all, trying to 51 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:34,119 Speaker 3: figure it all out. What happened? What did I do? 52 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 3: She said, I got to the place where I didn't 53 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 3: even want to go hardly go to work. I certainly 54 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 3: didn't want to go out with any friends. I found 55 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 3: myself just staying at home a lot. And she said, 56 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 3: one evening, I turned on the television and I saw 57 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 3: your ministry. She says. As I began to listen and 58 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 3: listen to the messages, I began to regain a sense 59 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 3: of who I was. She said, I began to become 60 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 3: encouraged again. She said, this that I thought was so good. 61 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 3: She said, I realized what I had been doing was 62 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 3: I had been so focused and so attentive to what 63 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:17,240 Speaker 3: had happened to me that I wasn't understanding what was 64 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 3: happening in me. She said, I had been so hurt, 65 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 3: I had been so discredited. I felt so all alone, 66 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 3: and what was happening to me was causing what was 67 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 3: happening in me to totally destroy my life. She said. 68 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 3: I didn't want to do anything, she said, and as 69 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 3: I became encouraged, she said, that discouragement left in home rose. 70 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 3: She said. I literally got to the place where I 71 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 3: could look myself in the mirror and like myself again, 72 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 3: she said. Little by little, she said, I'd get up 73 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 3: in the morning and I would look in the mirror 74 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 3: and she would say, you were beautiful, you are talented, 75 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 3: you are valuable. She said, I begin to have this 76 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 3: fun person come back into my life, the person I 77 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 3: really was. And she said, I got so excited. 78 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 5: I got it. 79 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 3: I got encouraged to get up in the morning and 80 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 3: look at myself and tell myself how well I was doing. 81 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 3: You see. I love that, she added this. And I 82 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 3: can't leave this out, she said. And I would say 83 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 3: to myself, God is going to bring the right person 84 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 3: across my path, because I'm in the palm of his hand. 85 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 3: I love the fact that she did something about her discouragement. 86 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 3: She made a choice. She took what she received on 87 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 3: the inside, the encouragement she got from the ministry and 88 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 3: she began to encourage herself. It says in Exodus six 89 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 3: that when Moses was going to leave the children of 90 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 3: Israel out of captivity, which God had promised, what happened 91 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 3: when he went to them to tell them that this 92 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,840 Speaker 3: was their time. This was the moment that God was 93 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 3: going to cause them to leave this burden of this joke, 94 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 3: this bondage that they had been under. The scripture says this. 95 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 3: It says that they were too discouraged to believe. They 96 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 3: had been under so much discouragement that they couldn't even 97 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 3: believe that what God could do for them. You know, 98 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 3: that's a sad statement, too discouraged to believe. But I'll 99 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 3: tell you what it shows me. It shows me the 100 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 3: power of discouragement in our life. It shows me that 101 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 3: when we become discouraged, we can't even get the faith 102 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 3: to believe that God can take us to the places 103 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 3: we need to go, to take us over a challenge, 104 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 3: through an obstacle. You see, discouragement is heaped on us 105 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 3: and we can't see. You know, it's very interesting because 106 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 3: the young girl that I talked about, when she began 107 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 3: to encourage herself, when she began to take this encouragement 108 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 3: that she had on the inside and encourage herself. You know, 109 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 3: nothing had changed on the outside. That man didn't come 110 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 3: back to her life, but everything had changed on the inside. 111 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 3: And when hope rises in your heart, faith causes you 112 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 3: to act. Faith causes you to move forward. The scripture 113 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 3: tells us that David, the mighty man of God, who 114 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 3: faced challenge after challenge, learned this secret. He encouraged himself 115 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:42,040 Speaker 3: in the Lord. You see, David had a warrior's mentality. 116 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 3: He took this place inside of him that he had 117 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 3: built up, this place where he had encouraged himself in 118 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 3: the things of God, and he was able to take 119 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 3: that war chest and encourage himself on the things on 120 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 3: the outside. He was able to look at the face 121 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 3: of discouragement and say, no, my God can supply all 122 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 3: of my needs. My God can get me through this. 123 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 3: You see, at one point in David's life, everybody had 124 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 3: turned against him. Even the men that were fighting battles 125 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 3: with him were so down and discouraged that they turned 126 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 3: to David and they said, we want to stone you. 127 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 3: They were looking for someone to blame for the difficulties 128 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 3: that they were facing. David had no one around him 129 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 3: that could encourage him, Yet he encouraged himself in the 130 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 3: Lord his God. You know, it's great when your family 131 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 3: is there to encourage you, when your friends are there 132 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 3: to encourage you. But what happens when no one's there 133 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 3: to encourage you? You know what I believe. I believe 134 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 3: we shouldn't depend on other people to encourage us. I 135 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 3: believe our main source of encouragement should come right from 136 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 3: the inside of us. See. I can't even imagine my 137 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 3: husband trying to encourage me every time I'm discouraged. You 138 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 3: know what if I went to Joel every time that 139 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 3: I was discouraged, he'd probably locked himself in a closet 140 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 3: and not come out. You See, we've got to learn 141 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 3: to encourage ourself every day. We've got to remember what 142 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 3: God has done in our life. We have to understand 143 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 3: that we have to get in agreement with God. See, 144 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 3: you are made in the image of Almighty God. God 145 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 3: created you and he made you. And if you believe 146 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 3: that about your life, then when you criticize yourself, you 147 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 3: might as well be criticizing your creator, the one who 148 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 3: made you. You See, if you can criticize his creation, 149 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 3: then what you're doing is criticizing the Creator because he 150 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 3: made you, he formed you, he fashioned you, just the 151 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 3: way you should be. See, when you encourage yourself, what 152 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 3: you're doing is you're saying, thank you God for who 153 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 3: you made me to be. Thank you God that you've 154 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 3: made me to be more than a canker in Christ Jesus. 155 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 3: But I'm an overcomer because you've backed me up, because 156 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 3: I have your word in me. See it's so easy 157 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 3: sometimes to see the good qualities in other people yet 158 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,559 Speaker 3: ignore the good qualities in our self. But I believe 159 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 3: that we need to see the good things in our self, 160 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 3: and we need to applaud even the smallest accomplishments. You know, 161 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 3: maybe you feel like you're a procrastinator and there's been 162 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 3: a project that you've been putting off. Well, when you 163 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 3: begin to start that project, even if you don't finish it, 164 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:32,319 Speaker 3: applaud yourself. You know, what about that diet you've been 165 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 3: trying to stay on? Listen when you have a good day, 166 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 3: applaud yourself. What about the addiction that you're overcoming when 167 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 3: you see yourself trying listen, crown your own efforts with 168 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 3: the success, applaud yourself. You See, we've got to learn 169 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 3: to applaud even the smallest accomplishments in our life. When 170 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 3: we applaud ourself, you know what we're doing. We're not 171 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 3: being both. We're not being egotistical and prideful. We're building 172 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 3: confidence and faith in ourself. Too often we see what 173 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 3: we're doing wrong and not what we're doing right. We 174 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 3: see all the times we blew it. But I want 175 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 3: to tell you something. Don't go around looking at all 176 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 3: the times you blew it. Applaud yourself for all the 177 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 3: things you've done well by yourself. Some flowers. Celebrate yourself. 178 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 3: You've been made in the image of God. You've got 179 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 3: to understand when you celebrate yourself, you're celebrating God on 180 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 3: the inside of you. See, it's so important that we 181 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 3: do this. You know, life doesn't always turn out the 182 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 3: way we planned. And maybe today you can say, well, 183 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 3: not everything has gone my way. But can I encourage 184 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,959 Speaker 3: you with this? You're still here, You're still full of purpose, 185 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 3: You're still full of value. You can still get to 186 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:56,719 Speaker 3: where God wants you to be. You can't live negative 187 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 3: and expect to have a positive life. You can't dwell 188 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,960 Speaker 3: on everything that you can't do and expect to go 189 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 3: out with strength and courage to do it. You see, 190 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 3: we're all in the process. That is the truth. Every 191 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 3: one of us in here is in a certain area 192 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 3: of our life in process to the coming, and it's 193 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 3: up to us to stay encouraged along the way. I'll 194 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 3: never forget the time we were in another state and 195 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 3: my husband was on a book tour and we had 196 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 3: done an interview with this journalist. And I'll never forget 197 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 3: he got in the car. We all piled in the car, 198 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 3: and he sat there for a second and he said, 199 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 3: you know what, I did a good job. He said, 200 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 3: I did everything that I knew to do. I said 201 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 3: what I knew to say, he said, And I just 202 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 3: feel good about what I did today. I did the 203 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 3: very best that I could. And we had a friend 204 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 3: with us, and a little later he said, Choel, you 205 00:11:55,600 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 3: know when you affirmed yourself after that important interview, he said, 206 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 3: it reminded me of how negative I am towards my 207 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,439 Speaker 3: own self. He said, I thought about what if that 208 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 3: was me that just came out of that interview. He said, 209 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 3: I would have probably had a mindful of doubt. I 210 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 3: would have probably thought I didn't say the right thing, 211 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 3: and I didn't do the right thing. But when you 212 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 3: had the boldness and the courage to affirm yourself, he said, 213 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 3: it was such a freedom for me. It made me 214 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 3: realize that I can affirm myself. Because See, the truth is, 215 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 3: we can only do the best that we can do today. 216 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 3: And if we'll do the best we can do today, 217 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 3: whether it was the best or not, we'll be more 218 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 3: equipped to do better tomorrow. You See, my husband is 219 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:49,079 Speaker 3: one of the greatest encouragers that I think I've ever seen. 220 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 3: He's encouraged people all over the world, and I believe 221 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 3: one of the greatest secrets to his encouragement is the 222 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,959 Speaker 3: fact that he knows how to encourage himself. He practices 223 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 3: finding the best in himself. See, when you're full of 224 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 3: good things, it's interesting how you see through that lens 225 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 3: of good things. Then you're able to see the best 226 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:19,680 Speaker 3: in others to affirm and encourage other people. So you 227 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 3: can't give away what you don't have. If you've got 228 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 3: a full tank, then you can give encouragement and love 229 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 3: to one another. Listen, I believe I'm looking at people 230 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 3: who have decided they're gonna practice looking in the mirror 231 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 3: and deciding who they really are. I believe I'm looking 232 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 3: at people who are gonna affirm themselves. They're gonna watch 233 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 3: the negative talk and the negative thoughts that are going 234 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 3: on in their mind. And I believe that as we 235 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,319 Speaker 3: get up every day and we say who God says 236 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 3: we are, and we reflect the image of Almighty God, 237 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 3: that we'll be able to go out and be encouragers 238 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 3: everywhere we go.
