1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:02,480
Speaker 1: Hi, this is Joel and Victorian.

2
00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:05,200
Speaker 2: Thanks so much for listening to the podcast and thanks

3
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:07,760
Speaker 2: for supporting the ministry. We'd love to have you join

4
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:10,520
Speaker 2: us for a service in person sometime, or you can

5
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 2: always watch online. You can find a service schedule on

6
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:15,880
Speaker 2: our web. I promise you it will make you feel

7
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:16,479
Speaker 2: right at home.

8
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:18,960
Speaker 1: We love you and hope you enjoy the message.

9
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 2: Well, God bless you. It's always a joy to come

10
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 2: into your homes. We love you, and we know God

11
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 2: rewards the people that seek after him. That's you, or

12
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 2: you wouldn't have tuned in, or you wouldn't have come

13
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:30,480
Speaker 2: out today.

14
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 1: So thank you so much.

15
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:33,839
Speaker 2: If you're ever in our area, stop by and be

16
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 2: a part of one of our services. I promise you

17
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:38,880
Speaker 2: we'll make you feel right at home. But again, thank

18
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 2: you all for coming out today. And I like to

19
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,520
Speaker 2: start with something funny each week. And I heard about

20
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 2: this cat and mouse that died on the same day

21
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 2: and went to heaven after a couple of weeks. Saint

22
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 2: Peter saw the mouse and said, hey, how do you

23
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 2: like it so far? The mouse said, it's great, but

24
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 2: it's so big. I'd love to have a pair of

25
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 2: roller skates. Peter said, no problem them gates. A few

26
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,959
Speaker 2: weeks later, Peter saw the cat and ask him how

27
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 2: he liked it, and the cat said, Peter, it's fantastic.

28
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,320
Speaker 2: And just when I thought it couldn't get any better,

29
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 2: I discovered the meals on wheels. All right, hold up

30
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 2: your Bible. Say it like you mean it. This is

31
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 2: my Bible. I am what it says I am. I

32
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 2: have what it says I have. I can do what

33
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 2: it says I can do. Today I will be taught

34
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 2: the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind is alert,

35
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 2: my heart is receptive. I will never be the same.

36
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 2: In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want to talk

37
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 2: to you today about being glad. Continually, we all have

38
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 2: opportunities to lose our joy, go around discouraged. But God

39
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 2: never intended for us to endure life. He created us

40
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 2: to enjoy life, and we prepare for victory or defeat

41
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 2: at the very start of the day. When you get

42
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,639
Speaker 2: up in the morning, you have to set your mind

43
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 2: in the right direction. You may feel discouraged. You may

44
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 2: feel the blaws, thinking I don't want to go to

45
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 2: work today, I don't want to deal with these children.

46
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 2: I've got so many problems. If you make the mistake

47
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 2: of dwelling on those thoughts, then you are preparing for

48
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 2: a lousy day. You're using your faith in the wrong direction.

49
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 2: You need to turn it around and say, this is

50
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 2: going to be a great day.

51
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: Something good is going to happen to me.

52
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:32,359
Speaker 2: God has favor in my future, and I'm expecting new opportunities,

53
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 2: divine connections, supernatural breakthroughs.

54
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 1: You know what you just did.

55
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 2: You prepared for victory, prepared for increase, prepared for restoration.

56
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 2: God says to the angels, did you hear that? They're

57
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 2: expecting my goodness. They're expecting to prosper in spite of

58
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 2: the economy. They're expecting to get well, in spite of

59
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 2: the medical report. They're expecting to accomplish their dreams even

60
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 2: though they don't have the resources right now. When you

61
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 2: start the day off like that in faith, God tells

62
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 2: the angels go to work, arrange things in their favor,

63
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 2: give them breaks, line up the right people, open up

64
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 2: the right doors. That's what allows God to show up

65
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 2: and show out in unusual ways. Some of you today

66
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 2: would see a major improvement in your life if you'd

67
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 2: make this minor adjustment. You not only have more energy,

68
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 2: a better attitude, be more productive, but you would see

69
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 2: new doors open, you'd meet new friends, you'd get some

70
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 2: of those breakthroughs you've been praying for. If you just

71
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 2: get up in the morning and instead of preparing for defeat,

72
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 2: prepare for victory, Prepare for increase, prepare for God's favor.

73
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 1: You have to set the tone at the very start

74
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: of the day.

75
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 2: If you leave your mind in neutral, then just by default,

76
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 2: the negative thoughts will start to come. Have you ever

77
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 2: been laying in bed in the morning and out of nowhere,

78
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 2: you're reminded of all the mistakes you made yesterday and

79
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 2: all the problems you have in your future. That's the

80
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 2: enemy trying to set your mind for a negative, defeated,

81
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 2: lousy day. Don't fall into that trap. The scripture says,

82
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 2: set your mind and keep it set on the higher things.

83
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 2: You've got to be proactive, be on the offensive. When

84
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 2: you get up in the morning, say it with David,

85
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,479
Speaker 2: this is another day the Lord has made. No matter

86
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 2: how I feel, no matter what the economy looks like,

87
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 2: no matter what the medical report says, I am choosing

88
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 2: to rejoice. I'm gonna choose to live this day happy.

89
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 2: You know what you're really saying. I'm not gonna let

90
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 2: other people still my joy today. I'm not gonna let

91
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 2: disappointments and setbacks discourage me. I'm not gonna focus on

92
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 2: my problems and my mistakes. I make it up my

93
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 2: mind to enjoy this day, something I've learned to do

94
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 2: every morning, as I say Father, thank you, that today

95
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 2: is going to be a blessing day and a receiving day,

96
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 2: a day where I'll be a blessing to someone and

97
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,600
Speaker 2: a day where I'll receive your goodness in a greater way.

98
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 2: What am I doing. I'm setting the tone for the

99
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 2: new day. I go out each morning looking for somebody

100
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 2: I can bless. I'm on the lookout for somebody I

101
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 2: can be good to, somebody I can encourage, somebody I

102
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:32,039
Speaker 2: can uplift. I'm expecting it number one to be a

103
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 2: blessing day, and number two, I'm expecting it to be

104
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 2: a receiving day. That means a day where I'm going

105
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 2: to receive God's goodness in a greater way. I'm expecting

106
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 2: God to show up and show out in my life today.

107
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,159
Speaker 2: I'm expecting to get supernatural breakthroughs. It's not going to

108
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 2: just be a blessing day where I reach out to others.

109
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,160
Speaker 2: But I know when I help somebody else, God will

110
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 2: always help me. When i'm someone else's day, God will

111
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 2: make my own day.

112
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 1: So I'm getting in position.

113
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 2: I'm getting my mind prepared to receive God's goodness in

114
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,599
Speaker 2: a greater way. I heard a story about this ninety

115
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 2: two year old man. He was just as sharp as

116
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 2: could be. Every morning, by eight o'clock he was up

117
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 2: and fully dressed. He always looked impeccables, hair perfectly combed,

118
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 2: his face neatly shaven, and although he could see images somewhat,

119
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:32,160
Speaker 2: he was legally blind. His wife of nearly seventy years

120
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 2: had just gone to be with the Lord. Now he

121
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 2: was moving into a senior's home, and after waiting in

122
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,840
Speaker 2: the lobby patiently for several hours, a young lady came

123
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 2: to show him to his new room, and as he

124
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 2: maneuvered his walker through the hallways, she began to describe

125
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,919
Speaker 2: this new room in great detail. She told how it

126
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 2: had a beautiful window and a nice couch and a

127
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 2: desk area right in the middle. He interrupted her and said,

128
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 2: I love it. I love it.

129
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,359
Speaker 1: I love it. She kind of laughed and.

130
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 2: Said, sir, we're not there yet. You haven't seen it.

131
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 2: Hold on just a minute and I'll show it to you.

132
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 2: He said, No, that doesn't have anything to do with it.

133
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 2: Happiness is something you decide ahead of time. Whether I

134
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 2: like my room or not doesn't depend on how the

135
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 2: furniture is arranged. It depends on how my mind is arranged.

136
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 2: I like that attitude. That's the way we need to be.

137
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 2: We've already made up our mind to enjoy this day.

138
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 2: We've already made up our mind to have a blessed, prosperous,

139
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 2: supernatural year. We may have some setbacks that may change

140
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 2: our circumstances, but it's not gonna change our mind. The

141
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 2: economy may affect my business, but it's not gonna affect

142
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 2: my mind. I know God is still gonna prosper me.

143
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 2: This illness may change how I feel, but it's not

144
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 2: gonna change my mind.

145
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 1: I've already decided I'm gonna live this day happy. Friends.

146
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 2: It's not what happens to us or what we do

147
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 2: or don't have, it's how our mind is arranged. Now,

148
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 2: I'm asking you today to make up your mind that

149
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 2: you're gonna stay full of joy, that you're gonna get

150
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 2: up every day and prepare for victory. I walked out

151
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 2: of the house early the other morning, and I heard

152
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 2: all these birds singing and singing so loud and so cheerful,

153
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 2: little birds chirping and chirping, big birds making all this melody.

154
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: It's like they were having a big party.

155
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 2: And I wanted to say to them, Hey, birds, have

156
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 2: you read the newspapers lately?

157
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 1: Did you see the stock market last year?

158
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 2: You're not supposed to be singing happy and joy in life.

159
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: What's wrong with you? Your acting like everything is gonna

160
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: be all right?

161
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 2: What was it with those birds? They know a secret.

162
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 2: They know their heavenly Father is in control. They know

163
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 2: God has promised to take care of them. So they

164
00:08:56,520 --> 00:09:00,439
Speaker 2: go through the day singing, enjoying life regards wardless of

165
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 2: the circumstances. That's how we need to start off each day.

166
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 2: Get up in the morning and have a song of

167
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 2: praise in your heart, put a smile on your face,

168
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,959
Speaker 2: go out during the day, be determined.

169
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 1: To enjoy it.

170
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 2: That's what it says in First Thessalonians five sixteen. Be

171
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 2: happy in your faith, glad hearted, continually and always. Notice

172
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 2: how long we're supposed to be glad hearted? How long

173
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 2: are we supposed to have a smile on our face,

174
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 2: as long as people treat us right, as long as

175
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 2: we feel okay, as long as the economy is up. No,

176
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 2: it says, be glad hearted continually and always. That means

177
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 2: in the good times and in the tough times. When

178
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 2: it's sunny and when it's raining, when those dark clouds

179
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 2: are over your head you feel like life.

180
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: Is kind of depressing, kind of gloomy.

181
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 2: Always remember right above those dark clouds, the sun is shining.

182
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 2: You may not be able to see the sun in

183
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 2: your life right now, but that doesn't mean it's not

184
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 2: up there.

185
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: It's just being.

186
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 2: Blocked by the dark clouds. The good news is the

187
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 2: clouds are temporary. The clouds are not going to last forever.

188
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 2: The sun is going to shine in your life once again.

189
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 2: In the meantime, keep your joy, be glad hearted continually,

190
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 2: don't let a few clouds sour your life. The rain

191
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 2: falls on the just and the unjust. That means we

192
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 2: all face disappointments, unfair situations, test trials, temptation, But know

193
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 2: this right past the test is promotion. On the other

194
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 2: side of every difficulty is increase. And if you'll go

195
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 2: through the adversity with a smile on your face a

196
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 2: song in your heart, then on the other side there'll

197
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 2: be a reward. But so often in the tough times

198
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 2: we get kind of discouraged. WHI joel, I'm down today

199
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 2: because business is slow, I'm upset because I got a

200
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 2: bad medical report, or I'm worried about this legal situation.

201
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: Human nature tends.

202
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 2: To get negative in the difficult times, but the scripture

203
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 2: tells us to do just the opposite. It says in

204
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 2: James one verse two, count it all joy when you

205
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 2: fall into trials.

206
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 1: That doesn't seem to make sense.

207
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 2: You mean, we're supposed to be joyful and glad hearted

208
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 2: in the middle of tough times.

209
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:35,560
Speaker 1: Yes, that's right.

210
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 2: It's because when you lose your joy, you lose your strength.

211
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 2: And in the difficult times more than ever, that's when

212
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 2: you need your strength. When you have a child that's

213
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 2: hard to raise, that takes a lot of energy, you

214
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 2: need your strength, and your strength is.

215
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 1: Connected to your joy.

216
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 2: When you're facing a financial crisis, dealing with an illness,

217
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 2: going through a breakup in a relationship, these things are

218
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 2: very draining. If you go through it negative bitter discourage,

219
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 2: you're not going to have the strength you need to

220
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 2: stand strong and fight the good fight of faith.

221
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 1: And the way you can keep your joy is.

222
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 2: To know that on the other side of that test

223
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 2: is promotion. On the other side of every setback is

224
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 2: new opportunity, The other side of every offense is new growth.

225
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 2: If you'll just keep reminding yourself even though this is hard,

226
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 2: even though I don't understand it, even though it's not fair,

227
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 2: I'm going to keep a good attitude and stay full

228
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 2: of joy, knowing that this is not setting me back,

229
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 2: it is setting me up for God to bring me

230
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 2: out better. The whole key is how you handle the adversity.

231
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 2: If you complain, you will remain, You'll stay right there.

232
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 2: If you get negative and soured on life, you won't

233
00:12:55,880 --> 00:13:00,719
Speaker 2: pass the test. There was promotion available, there was opportunity

234
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:04,200
Speaker 2: for new growth, but because you didn't count it all joy,

235
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,679
Speaker 2: you missed out. The good news is God will give

236
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 2: you another opportunity. He can still get you to where

237
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 2: you need to be. For instance, when somebody offends us,

238
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 2: our attitude should be I'm not going to get upset

239
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 2: I'm going to count it all joy.

240
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 1: I know this is simply a test.

241
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 2: And on the other side of this offense, I'm going

242
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 2: to be promoted.

243
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 1: When business is slow.

244
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 2: Instead of complaining, you count it all joy. This too

245
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 2: shall pass. I know God is supplying all of my needs.

246
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 2: Or when you face a disappointment, your emotions will tell

247
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 2: you to get down and discouraged. You'll feel self pity

248
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 2: trying to set in. But instead of getting on board

249
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 2: with your emotions, you start talking to yourself. Self, get up, self,

250
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,440
Speaker 2: be strong, there are good days up ahead.

251
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 1: That's how you pass the test. That's how you count

252
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: it all joy. And in the tough times, don't prized.

253
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 2: If you feel that spirit of heaviness, try to overtake you.

254
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 2: Don't be surprised if you hear those thoughts telling you

255
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 2: it's never gonna work out, you're never gonna get well,

256
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 2: it's over, it's done. Don't believe those lies. You don't

257
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 2: have to get on board with your emotions.

258
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: They're not in charge. You're in charge.

259
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 2: And instead of letting yourself talk to you, you need

260
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 2: to start talking to yourself. In other words, when you

261
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 2: wake up in the morning and that thought comes to

262
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 2: your mind saying it's gonna.

263
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: Be a lousy day.

264
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 2: Don't just agree and say, yeah, it's gonna be a

265
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 2: lousy day. Well, you got so many problems you'll probably

266
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 2: never get well. Yeah, I don't think I'll ever get well. No,

267
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 2: turn it around and talk to yourself.

268
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 1: Make a declaration of faith. I will get well. God

269
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: is restoring health.

270
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 2: Unto me early in the morning, when that thought comes

271
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 2: saying you're depressed, it's bad, you don't have anything to

272
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 2: look forward to. No, talk to yourself. This is gonna

273
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 2: be a great day. God has favor in my future.

274
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 2: I can't wait to see what he's.

275
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: Going to do. What are you doing counting it all? Joy?

276
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: This is what David did.

277
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 2: That spirit of heaviness tried to steal his destiny. He

278
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 2: got depressed, very discouraged during dark times.

279
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: You know what he did.

280
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 2: He started talking to himself. He said, why are you

281
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 2: cast down? Oh my soul, Put your hope in the Lord.

282
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 2: He was saying, David, what's wrong with you? Why are

283
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 2: you discouraged? Why have you lost your joy? God is

284
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 2: still on the throne. God still has good things in store.

285
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 2: Put your hope back in the Lord. When that heaviness

286
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 2: tries to come on us. We need to do the

287
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 2: same thing. You got to look in the mirror and say,

288
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 2: listen here self, cheer up, put on a new attitude.

289
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 2: We're not staying down, We're not staying defeated. We're putting

290
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 2: our hope.

291
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: In the Lord.

292
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 2: Today especially, there's so much doom and gloom in our society,

293
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 2: so many negative news reports. If we're not careful, we'll

294
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 2: let it sink in and we'll let that spirit of heaveness.

295
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: Kind of come on us.

296
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 2: And you know, no enthusiasm, no joy.

297
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: Oh, it's just so bad.

298
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 2: The scripture tells us what to do. Put on the

299
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 2: garment of praise for the spirit of heaveness. When you

300
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 2: feel that heaveness trying to overtake you and tell you

301
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,440
Speaker 2: that there's nothing good in your future, you've seen your

302
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 2: best days, you feel the blaws.

303
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 1: First thing you need to.

304
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 2: Do is take off the old coat of heaviness, throw

305
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 2: away the coat of self pity, get rid of the

306
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 2: coat of discouragement, and put on a new coat of praise.

307
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 1: That means begin to thank God.

308
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 2: For what he's already done in your life, thank him

309
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 2: for the victories in your past. Thank him for how

310
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 2: far he's already brought you, and then take it one

311
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 2: step further. Thank him in advance for the victories he

312
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 2: has ahead of you. Thank him for the new door

313
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 2: he's opening, Thank him for the situations he's turning around.

314
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 2: Thank him for the favor that he has in your future.

315
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 2: You do that, and you will feel a new joy

316
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,719
Speaker 2: rising up on the inside. You will feel your faith

317
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 2: begin to be increased. You won't have that victim mentality.

318
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:23,399
Speaker 2: You will have a victor mentality. One thing I've learned

319
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 2: is you cannot praise and stay defeated at the same time.

320
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:31,640
Speaker 2: You cannot give God thanks and stay down and discouraged.

321
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 2: When you put on the garment of praise, that spirit

322
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 2: of heaviness has to go. Sometimes you're not gonna feel

323
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 2: like doing it. You don't feel like having a good attitude.

324
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,679
Speaker 2: You don't feel like being grateful. That's why God said

325
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 2: to offer up the sacrifice of praise. God knew it

326
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 2: wasn't always going to be easy. Sometimes you're gonna have

327
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 2: to dig your heels in and say, God, I don't

328
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,640
Speaker 2: feel like doing this. Doesn't look like it's ever gonna workout.

329
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:06,120
Speaker 2: I'm tired lonely discouraged. But God, I know you're still

330
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,160
Speaker 2: on the throne. I know you are good, and you're

331
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 2: good all the time. So I choose to give you praise.

332
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 2: I choose to give you thanks. Anyway, when you offer

333
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 2: up that sacrifice of praise, that's when supernatural things begin

334
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 2: to happen. This is what Paul and Silas did. They

335
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:30,400
Speaker 2: were in jail at midnight. They had been unjustly beaten

336
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 2: earlier in the day. What were they doing complaining, having

337
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:36,119
Speaker 2: a pity party?

338
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 1: God is not fair? Where were you today?

339
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 2: No, they were singing praises and giving thanks to God.

340
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 2: They were saying, in effect, God, we know you're bigger

341
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 2: than our problems. We know you're still in control, and

342
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 2: you're well able to get us out of here. Sure enough,

343
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 2: at midnight there was a great earthquake. The prison doors

344
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 2: flung open, the change off their feet. They walked out

345
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,199
Speaker 2: of there as free men. What started it when they

346
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 2: offered up the sacrifice of praise.

347
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 1: Really, any of us.

348
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 2: Can have a good attitude when everything's going our way.

349
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 2: We can all celebrate, be grateful when we're on the mountaintop.

350
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 2: But where are the people that will give God praise?

351
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 2: Even when the bottom falls out. Where are the people

352
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 2: that will get up each morning and prepare for victory

353
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 2: and increase in spite of all the news.

354
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 1: Reports predicting doom and gloom.

355
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,480
Speaker 2: Where are the people that will say, God, I still

356
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 2: praise you, even though the medical report wasn't good. God,

357
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 2: I still thank you, even though it didn't turn out

358
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 2: my way. I believe I'm looking at those people right now.

359
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 2: You are men and women of great faith. Your roots

360
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:59,159
Speaker 2: go down deep. Many of you could be complaining, You

361
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 2: could be discoura, you could have a chip on your shoulder,

362
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 2: but instead you just keep giving God praise.

363
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,240
Speaker 1: You got that smile on your face.

364
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 2: You're doing the right thing even though the wrong thing's happening.

365
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 2: That's why I can tell you with confidence that you

366
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 2: are coming in to greater victories. You need to enlarge

367
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 2: your vision. You need to take the limits off of God.

368
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:27,440
Speaker 2: You have not seen your best days. God has victories

369
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,439
Speaker 2: in your future that are gonna amaze you. He is

370
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 2: going to show up and show out in unusual ways.

371
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 2: You may be in a tough time right now, but

372
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 2: remember this. The enemy always fights you the hardest when

373
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 2: he knows God has something great in store for you.

374
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 2: You are closest to your victory when it is the

375
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 2: darkest that is the enemy's final stand. Don't get discouraged,

376
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 2: don't start complaining, Just keep offering up that sacrifice of praise,

377
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:02,199
Speaker 2: it says in Jeremiah thirty three, verse eleven. When you

378
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:06,679
Speaker 2: have the voice of gladness, the voice of joy, and

379
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 2: you offer up the sacrifice of praise, God will cause

380
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 2: the captivity of the land to be reversed and the

381
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 2: fortunes to be restored. Two words I love there, reversed

382
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 2: and restored.

383
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 1: God is saying.

384
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 2: When you stay full of joy, when you learn to

385
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,679
Speaker 2: offer up the sacrifice of praise, God is going to

386
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 2: turn things in your favor. He is going to reverse

387
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 2: negative situations. He's going to restore what's been stolen. But

388
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 2: notice it doesn't happen by complaining, by being negative, by

389
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 2: being sour. It happens when you have the voice of gladness,

390
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,919
Speaker 2: the voice of joy. That means you get up in

391
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 2: the morning with the song in your heart. You go

392
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 2: out each day with a smile on your face. Things

393
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:57,640
Speaker 2: may not always go your way, but you don't get discouraged.

394
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,240
Speaker 2: You shake it off and count it all joy.

395
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 1: Listen.

396
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,639
Speaker 2: When you live that way, you might as well get ready.

397
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 2: God is going to reverse and restore. He is going

398
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 2: to reverse finances that are going down. He's going to

399
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 2: reverse a business this struggling. He's going to reverse a

400
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 2: legal situation. He's going to reverse.

401
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:18,400
Speaker 1: A health issue.

402
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 2: Not only that, God is going to restore what should

403
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,920
Speaker 2: have been yours. He's going to restore the years you're

404
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,360
Speaker 2: lost because somebody did you wrong. He's going to restore

405
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 2: a relationship that's on the rocks. It's going to happen

406
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,160
Speaker 2: because you've got the voice of joy, the voice of gladness,

407
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,639
Speaker 2: and you keep offering up that sacrifice of praise, and

408
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,919
Speaker 2: all through the scripture it tells us to rejoice in

409
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 2: the Lord always. It's interesting the word rejoice doesn't just

410
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 2: mean to be vocal, to give God praise with our words,

411
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:55,360
Speaker 2: but rejoice also means to brighten up, to spin around

412
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 2: and delete for joy. Do you realize you can rejoice

413
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 2: by saying putting a smile on your face when times

414
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 2: are tough, things aren't going our way. Many people have

415
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 2: a long sour face. They're down, discourage, worried, upset. But

416
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 2: when you count it all joy, you smile and have

417
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 2: a pleasant demeanor, not because you necessarily feel like it,

418
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,080
Speaker 2: not because all your circumstances are perfect.

419
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 1: You smile by faith.

420
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 2: You smile knowing that your countenance, your expression is saying

421
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 2: to God, I trust you God, I don't feel like

422
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 2: doing this, but I choose to rejoice. In other words,

423
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 2: when you smile in the difficult times, you are offering

424
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 2: up that sacrifice of praise. Sometimes the best thing we

425
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,640
Speaker 2: can do when we're having a tough day is to

426
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,679
Speaker 2: just put a smile on our face. A lot of

427
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 2: people when it gets difficult, they've got that long, gloomy face.

428
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,959
Speaker 2: They look like they've lost their last friend. They'll come

429
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 2: up to me, joel, I just rejoicing in the Lord. No,

430
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 2: you need to notify your face.

431
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 1: You need to get your.

432
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,920
Speaker 2: Face lined up with what you know in your heart,

433
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,359
Speaker 2: like that little bird I heard singing deep down.

434
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 1: You know everything's gonna be all right.

435
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 2: You know God is fighting your battles for you. You

436
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 2: know nothing can snatch you out of his hand. You

437
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:26,320
Speaker 2: know God holds victory in store for you. You know no

438
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 2: weapon formed against you is gonna prosper. You know what

439
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,119
Speaker 2: was meant for your harm God's gonna use to your advantage.

440
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,959
Speaker 2: It's on the inside now you need to let it

441
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 2: get to the outside.

442
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,439
Speaker 3: Sometimes life can make you feel like you were just

443
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 3: living in the dark. Even your prayers don't feel like

444
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 3: they are making it to heaven. But God is listening

445
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,719
Speaker 3: and his light is about to shine.

446
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 2: We know God is all powerful that he can answer

447
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,880
Speaker 2: any prayer, but sometimes we don't know what to pray.

448
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 2: We don't think we deserve god goodness. Maybe we're inconveniencing him,

449
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,399
Speaker 2: or he has more important things to deal with. But

450
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 2: God is concerned about every detail of your life.

451
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: He's waiting to hear your prayers.

452
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,200
Speaker 2: I have a new resource called Praying with Confidence, guided

453

Speaker 2: your faith, prayers that will move the hands of God.
