00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 6: thank you again for coming out. And I like to

46
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 6: start with something funny and I heard about this pastor.

47
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,959
Speaker 6: He was raising money for a new auditorium. He said

48
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 6: to the congregation, anyone who will give one thousand dollars

49
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 6: can pick out the next three hymns. Little old lady

50
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,359
Speaker 6: in the back raised her hand, said, Pastor, I'll do it.

51
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,639
Speaker 6: He was so excited. He said, thank you so much. Now,

52
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 6: which three hymns would you like? She looked over the

53
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 6: congregation said I'll.

54
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 4: Take him, and him and him.

55
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 6: Hold up your Bible. Say it like you mean it.

56
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,519
Speaker 6: This is my Bible. I am what it says I am.

57
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 6: I have what it says I have. I can do

58
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 6: what it says I can do. Today I will be

59
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 6: talked the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind

60
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 6: is alert, my heart is receptive. I will never be

61
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:55,639
Speaker 6: the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want

62
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 6: to talk to you today about activating the right genes.

63
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 4: We receive our DNA from our parents.

64
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 6: These genes that are passed down tell us what we're

65
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,359
Speaker 6: going to look like, how tall we're going to be,

66
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 6: what color our hair is. People tell us often that

67
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,359
Speaker 6: our son Jonathan has his mother's eyes.

68
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:17,399
Speaker 4: He looks just like Victoria.

69
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 6: I say, thank God, not only our physical traits passed

70
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 6: down through genes, but even personality traits, our demeanor, our attitude,

71
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 6: our sense of humor. Our daughter Alexandra is very neat

72
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 6: and organized. From the time she was a little girl,

73
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 6: she kept her room perfectly clean, everything in place, spotless.

74
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 6: We never asked her to do that. That trait came

75
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 6: from my grandfather.

76
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 4: He was the same way. My mother is like that,

77
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 4: and now our daughter.

78
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 6: It's been passed down for four generations. Somewhere there's a

79
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 6: gene that says, be neat, be organized, keep everything perfectly

80
00:03:58,840 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 6: in place.

81
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 4: But just as good.

82
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 6: Characteristics can be passed down, so can negative characteristics. If

83
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 6: one of your parents was an alcoholic, there's a ten

84
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 6: times greater chance of you becoming an alcoholic. And for

85
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 6: years we thought, well, too bad, it's in my genes. Depression, addictions,

86
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 6: low self esteem, nothing I can do about it. But

87
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 6: recently researchers have discovered something they call epigenetics.

88
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 4: That word means on top of the genes.

89
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 6: What they found is, just because a gene has been

90
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:37,279
Speaker 6: passed down.

91
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 4: Does it mean that it has to be activated.

92
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,840
Speaker 6: It can be affected by your decisions, by your environment,

93
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 6: and by your experiences. Now, while we cannot deactivate what

94
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 6: color of hair will be or the shape of our eyes,

95
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 6: there are certain genes that we can in effect turn

96
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 6: on or turn off, governing what the scripture says that

97
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 6: just because you inherit something doesn't mean you have to

98
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 6: pass it down. You can deactivate the negative genes that

99
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,480
Speaker 6: have been passed down to you. In other words, just

100
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 6: because your mother was depressed doesn't mean you're supposed to

101
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 6: be depressed. You may have a natural tendency toward that.

102
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 6: What you have to do is turn off that gene deactivated,

103
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 6: don't pass it down to your children.

104
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 4: It's easy to use it as an excuse.

105
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 6: Well, mama was depressed, grandmother was negative. Great grandmother was

106
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 6: a complainer. Joel, that's just who I am. Now, that

107
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,599
Speaker 6: is not who you are. You are a child of

108
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 6: the Most High God. And just as you got your

109
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 6: physical DNA from your earthly parents, you got your spiritual

110
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 6: DNA from your heavenly Father. He put in you genes

111
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 6: of joy, genes of strength, genes of peace, genes of victory.

112
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 6: Now you get to choose which genes come alive. You

113
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 6: may have had a lot of negative baggage pass down

114
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 6: to you in your family line or addictions, divorce, depression,

115
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 6: low self esteem. Don't be passive and just accept it.

116
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 6: God has raised you up to put an end to it.

117
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 6: You got to draw the line in the sand and

118
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 6: say that's it. I'm turning off the depressed gene. I

119
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 6: am not going to live my life discourage. This is

120
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,720
Speaker 6: the day the Lord has made. I am going to

121
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:37,039
Speaker 6: choose to be happy. What are you doing deactivating the

122
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 6: depressed gene.

123
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:39,280
Speaker 4: You're turning it off.

124
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 6: Why don't you turn off the negative gene, turn off

125
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,239
Speaker 6: the alcoholic gene, turn off the self pity gene.

126
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 4: This is a new day.

127
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 6: Don't blame the past, blame mama, blame granddaddy. Take responsibility

128
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,840
Speaker 6: and start activating the right genes. If you'll start making

129
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 6: right choices, you can and override the negative things you inherited.

130
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 6: You can break a generational curse. You have the power

131
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 6: not only to put an end to it, but you

132
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 6: can start a generational blessing. You can pass down things

133
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 6: that will make it easier on your loved ones. After all,

134
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 6: our children have enough to overcome without carrying around all of.

135
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 4: Our negative baggage. Even if you don't.

136
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 6: Do it, for yourself, do it for your children, Do

137
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 6: it to make it easier on those that come after you.

138
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 6: The scripture calls this negative baggage and iniquity, and it

139
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 6: talks about how it can be passed down for four generations.

140
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 6: The things you struggle with, they didn't just happen to

141
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 6: show up. Somebody in your family line opened the door.

142
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 6: I talked to a young lady that deals with anorexia.

143
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 4: She's skin and bones. She told how.

144
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 6: Her mother has the same problem. Her grandmother struggled with

145
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 6: it as well. That's not a coincidence. That is an

146
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 6: iniquity being passed from generation to generation. It will continue

147
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 6: until somebody rises up and puts a stop to it.

148
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 6: Somebody has to deactivate that gene. And God said in

149
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 6: Deuteronomy chapter thirty, I set before you life and death,

150
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 6: blessing and curses. Choose life so that you and your

151
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 6: descendants will live. Notice your decisions don't just affect you,

152
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,719
Speaker 6: they affect future generations.

153
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 4: No man lives and dies unto himself.

154
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 6: We've heard a lot about the generational curse, but what's

155
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 6: more important is our generational choice. Every right choice you make,

156
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 6: you start to override the wrong choices.

157
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 4: Of those that have gone before you.

158
00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:00,600
Speaker 6: When you choose life, you choose blessing, you choose the victory,

159
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 6: You and your descendants will see God's favor. I was

160
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 6: reading about the famous author Ernest Hemingway. While he was

161
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 6: one of the greatest writers of his day, his family

162
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 6: had a long line of depression.

163
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,679
Speaker 4: Alcoholism, and suicide.

164
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,679
Speaker 6: Hemingway took his own life in nineteen sixty one. His

165
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:26,839
Speaker 6: sister committed suicide five years later. His brother committed suicide

166
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 6: sixteen years after that. His granddaughter did the same thing

167
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 6: in nineteen ninety six.

168
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 4: What's interesting is.

169
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 6: Hemingway's father took his life in nineteen twenty eight. I

170
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 6: was wondering what would have happened way back there in

171
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 6: the twenties if the father would have deactivated the suicide gene.

172
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:52,959
Speaker 6: What if he would have risen up and said, no,

173
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 6: I've been made in the image of Almighty God.

174
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,080
Speaker 4: I have a purpose and a destiny.

175
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 6: I am shaking off these negative, defeated thoughts. I know

176
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 6: the power in me is greater than any force coming

177
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 6: against me. If he would have taken authority over that

178
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 6: negative spirit and instead activated the faith gene, the victory gene,

179
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 6: the more than a conquered gene. He could have changed

180
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 6: his family line. He could have broken the generational curse

181
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 6: and started a generational blessing. You may be at that

182
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 6: same place today. You could easily settle where you are,

183
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 6: let the negative genes get passed down, make it harder

184
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 6: on those that come after you. Or you could make

185
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,679
Speaker 6: a much better choice and say no, enough is enough.

186
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 6: I am not going to live my life addicted, angry, defeated, depressed.

187
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:50,439
Speaker 6: I am not passing down that negative baggage. I'm choosing life.

188
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 6: I'm choosing blessings. I'm gonna make choices that help my

189
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 6: family and not hinder them. One time in the scripture,

190
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:03,959
Speaker 6: God told Saul to go and destroy the Amalekites, to

191
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 6: totally wipe them out. Saul and his army went out

192
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 6: and they defeated the Amalekites, but they spared the king.

193
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 4: They captured him. He was King Agag.

194
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 6: Fast forward hundreds of years, Esther is in the palace.

195
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 6: A man by the name of Hayman is trying to

196
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:23,719
Speaker 6: get rid of.

197
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 4: Her and all of her people.

198
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:30,199
Speaker 6: It says that Hayman was an Agite, and Agite is

199
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 6: a descendant of King a Gag if Saul would have

200
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 6: taken care of his enemy when God gave him the

201
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:41,319
Speaker 6: power to do it, Esther wouldn't be having this problem

202
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 6: five hundred years later. Could it be that if you

203
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 6: don't put an end to what you're dealing with, your

204
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 6: family will still be struggling with it hundreds of years

205
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 6: from now. God is saying, this is your time, This

206
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 6: is your moment. Your destiny is calling out to you.

207
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 6: The can either put up with it and let it

208
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,680
Speaker 6: conquer you, or you can say no. The same power

209
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 6: that raised Christ from the dead lives on the inside

210
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 6: of me.

211
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 4: I will conquer this addiction.

212
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 6: I will conquer this depression, this low self esteem.

213
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:17,599
Speaker 4: I will not allow.

214
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 6: It to linger for future generations to have to deal

215
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 6: with friends. You were never created to live addicted and angry,

216
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:30,559
Speaker 6: constantly having to struggle. Those genes may have been passed down,

217
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:35,080
Speaker 6: but you have the power to break negative cycles. They

218
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 6: may have been in your family for hundreds of years,

219
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 6: But when you gave your life to Christ, you became

220
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 6: a new creation. He put new genes in you. You

221
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 6: have the DNA of Almighty God. There is strength in

222
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 6: your genes, There is power in your genes. There is

223
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 6: freedom in your genes.

224
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 4: Now, don't settle where you are. God join.

225
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 6: Everybody in my family gets divorced. Looks like I'm headed

226
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:06,679
Speaker 6: that way. Everybody struggles with these addictions. Everybody has financial problems. No,

227
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 6: here's the catch. You're not everybody. God has called you

228
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 6: to put an end to it. You are equipped, empowered,

229
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 6: and well able.

230
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:20,079
Speaker 4: This is what the prophet is.

231
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 6: Ezekiel said an interesting scripture, the fathers ate the sour grapes.

232
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:29,959
Speaker 6: Now the children's teeth are set on edge. As long

233
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,679
Speaker 6: as I live, declares the sovereign Lord, you will no

234
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 6: longer quote this.

235
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 4: This was a proverb they were living by.

236
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 6: Their attitude was since the father had problems, the children

237
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 6: will as well. Nothing we can do about it. Since

238
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 6: the father ate the sour grapes, since the parents had addictions,

239
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 6: Since the grandparents were depressed, then the children will struggle

240
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 6: in those same areas.

241
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:56,599
Speaker 4: That was their philosophy.

242
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:01,200
Speaker 6: Then God showed up and said through his zee, stop

243
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 6: saying that. Why do you keep using your relatives as

244
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 6: an excuse? Why do you keep using what your parents

245
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 6: did and the way you were raised as the reason

246
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 6: to stay where you are? As long as the sovereign

247
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 6: Lord lives. You don't have to be held bondage by

248
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 6: the negative things in your past. In other words, your

249
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 6: parents may have eaten the sour grapes. Your relatives may

250
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 6: have made decisions that put you at a disadvantage, but

251
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 6: God is saying it doesn't have to affect you. It

252
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 6: may have held you back temporarily, but this is a

253
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 6: new day. If you will start deactivating those genes pressing forward,

254
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 6: then all the forces of darkness cannot hold you back.

255
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 6: You don't have to eat the sour grapes. You've been redeemed.

256
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 6: You're not under the curse. You're under the blessing. You

257
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 6: have stepped into a new bloodline. And the good news

258
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 6: is there's no defeat in this bloodline. There's no lack,

259
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,520
Speaker 6: no addictions, no mediocrity. You are a child of the

260
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 6: most High God. Now I am here to announce that

261
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 6: the Sovereign Lord is still alive.

262
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 4: God is still on the throne. That means you don't

263
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 4: have to eat to sour grapes. Now our part, shake

264
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 4: off the self.

265
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 6: Pity, don't make excuses, don't blame the past, don't blame

266
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 6: your parents, don't blame your circumstances.

267
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 4: That may be the reason.

268
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 6: You are where you are, but that doesn't give you

269
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 6: the right to stay there. Start dealing with the issues

270
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 6: that are holding you back. Start activating the right Jesus.

271
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 6: That's what a good friend of mine did. He was

272
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 6: raised in a very dysfunctional home. His father was an

273
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 6: alcoholic and he would get very violent.

274
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 4: He saw him mistreat his mother.

275
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 6: Be disrespectful, and go off into these fits of rage.

276
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 6: He ended up just like his father. He was a

277
00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 6: drug addict and living a very violent, angry life. In

278
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 6: his late twenties, he gave his life to Christ had

279
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 6: this major turnaround.

280
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 4: Long story short.

281
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 6: He became the pastor of a church, very well respected man,

282
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 6: a large church. He'd go around the world sharing his story.

283
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 6: But what people didn't know is he still had an

284
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 6: anger problem. God set him free from the addictions, the drugs,

285
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 6: the alcohol, but the anger never left.

286
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 4: He didn't show it out in public, but at home,

287
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 4: nobody was around.

288
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 6: The smallest things would set him off, just like his father,

289
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 6: he would go into these fits of rage. He too,

290
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 6: was very abusive to his wife. He didn't like it,

291
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 6: he knew it was wrong, but he couldn't control himself.

292
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 6: He wanted to get help, but he was too embarrassed. Thought,

293
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 6: I can't tell anybody, the pastor of a church, what

294
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 6: would they think about me. I'm supposed to be an example,

295
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 6: but this is where we miss it. Just because you're

296
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 6: dealing with a tough issue doesn't make you a bad person.

297
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:06,680
Speaker 6: Most likely somebody in your family line opened the door.

298
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 6: Somebody allowed that iniquity, and they refuse to deal with it.

299
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 6: Don't be like then, don't sweep it under the rug,

300
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:16,959
Speaker 6: ignore it, hope that it'll go away.

301
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:18,920
Speaker 4: That'll keep you in bondage.

302
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 6: James five point sixteen says, confess your faults one to another,

303
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,120
Speaker 6: and you will be healed. Do you know there are

304
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:32,719
Speaker 6: some issues you cannot overcome on your own. You have

305
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:36,640
Speaker 6: to swallow your pride and find somebody you can trust,

306
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:41,160
Speaker 6: pastor a counselor a friend. Tell them what you're dealing with,

307
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 6: Let them pray with you, stand with you, and bring

308
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 6: accountability into your life. When you get it out in

309
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 6: the open and say God, I.

310
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 4: Need help with this anger.

311
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 6: When you take steps to overcome you intend to celebrate

312
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 6: recovery classes. That's when the scripture says you will be healed.

313
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:04,120
Speaker 6: You don't have to keep eating the sour grapes. That's

314
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,359
Speaker 6: what my friend did today. He is one of the

315
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,679
Speaker 6: most kind, most gentle people you'll ever meet.

316
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 4: What did he do.

317
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 6: He broke the generational curse. He chose life so his

318
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 6: children won't have to deal with it.

319
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,400
Speaker 4: He deactivated that gene.

320
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 6: It's still in him. It was passed down, but it's

321
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 6: not affecting him. There is no addiction that is too

322
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 6: much for you to overcome, no iniquity, nothing that has

323
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 6: been passed down has to keep you from your God

324
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 6: given destiny. The power in you is greater than any

325
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:42,119
Speaker 6: power that's coming against you. Now, don't do like he

326
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:46,440
Speaker 6: did at first, and learn to function in your dysfunction.

327
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:51,439
Speaker 6: God didn't create you to have issues and things you

328
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 6: have to hide and feel bad about yourself. He created

329
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,920
Speaker 6: you to be totally free. But some of you, like

330
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 6: my friend, what you saw growing up wasn't healthy. It's

331
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 6: easy to think that that's normal. Maybe your parents didn't

332
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 6: show much affection to you, and now you're not showing

333
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 6: much affection to your children, or maybe there was violence, anger,

334
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:20,120
Speaker 6: disrespect in the home. Don't pass that down, deactivate that gene.

335
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 6: Be affectionate to your children well joel, I'm a man.

336
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 6: I don't hug my son, after all, he's grown. Now,

337
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,360
Speaker 6: let me tell you, a real man still hugs his son.

338
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,879
Speaker 6: A real man treats his wife with respect and honor.

339
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 4: Men.

340
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:41,159
Speaker 6: The scripture says that your wife is a reflection.

341
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:42,719
Speaker 4: Of your glory.

342
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,199
Speaker 6: If she's beaten down, discourage, worn out, then you're not

343
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 6: shining too brightly. She's reflecting your glory. You need to

344
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 6: step it up a notch. Do something to put the

345
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 6: spring back in her step, the smile back in her face.

346
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 6: Take her to the mall, buy her something new, send

347
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 6: her some flower, write her a note, Tell her how

348
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 6: great she is. The brighter she shines, the better you look.

349
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 4: That's why I keep Victoria looking fine. She makes me

350
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 4: look good. But don't go to them all today.

351
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 6: Okay, another thought, fathers, your daughter is going to marry

352
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 6: somebody just like you. If you treat your wife lousy,

353
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 6: don't give her the time of day, put her down.

354
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 6: That's the kind of man your daughter is going to

355
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 6: be attracted to. Our children follow our example more than

356
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 6: they follow our advice. They're constantly taking everything in. They're

357
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 6: like a video camera with legs. They're always in the

358
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 6: record mode. They're watching how you treat people. When you

359
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:51,880
Speaker 6: treat your wife like a queen, you give her compliments,

360
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 6: encourage her when you bring her coffee in bed, you

361
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 6: open the car door, you bring her gifts. You make

362
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,919
Speaker 6: her feel loved, valued, respected on her.

363
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 4: Listen, your daughter is going to marry a winner. Your

364
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:05,159
Speaker 4: daughter will marry somebody.

365
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 7: Just like that.

366
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,520
Speaker 6: Now, you may not have seen this growing up. You

367
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,719
Speaker 6: may have seen just the opposite. What I'm saying today

368
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 6: is you can set a new standard. Choose life, choose honor,

369
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:22,880
Speaker 6: choose respect. Pass that down to future generations. A few

370
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,399
Speaker 6: years back, we were on vacation at this very nice

371
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 6: hotel with our family, and it was a large place

372
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 6: and the rooms were spread out all over the property,

373
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:37,119
Speaker 6: very beautiful. When we first arrived, the bellman took us

374
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 6: to our room down this long winding sidewalk. He had

375
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 6: to curve around through these bungalows and over this bridge

376
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 6: and around this big lake.

377
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:48,400
Speaker 4: We finally made it to our room.

378
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,359
Speaker 6: It was very complicated how to get there, so I

379
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 6: paid close attention.

380
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 4: A few nights later, we were leaving.

381
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,880
Speaker 6: The lobby just eating dinner, and we were walking back

382
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,919
Speaker 6: to our hotel room our son, Jonathan. He was about

383
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,200
Speaker 6: ten at the time. He said, Dad, you know we're

384
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 6: taking the long way. It's much quicker this way. I said, no, Jonathan,

385
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 6: I paid close attention. This is the way the bellman

386
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:14,640
Speaker 6: took us.

387
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,159
Speaker 4: This is the right way.

388
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 6: He said, no, Dad, I'm telling you this way is quicker.

389
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 6: I said, Jonathan, I am positive this is the right way.

390
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 6: For the next couple of days, we always went my way.

391
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 6: Each time Jonathan said, Dad, we're going the long way again. No,

392
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 6: we're not, Jonathan, this is the right way. The last

393
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,919
Speaker 6: day Jonathan said, Dad, can we go my way? At

394
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,160
Speaker 6: least once? I said, all right, we'll go your way.

395
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 6: And Jonathan let us down these stairs through this narrow passageway,

396
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 6: and our room was right there. I promise you it

397
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,439
Speaker 6: was probably one hundred yards closer than the way we

398
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 6: had been going. I said, Jonathan, why didn't you tell me?

399
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 6: Come to find out, the bellman had taken us the

400
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 6: law long scenic route so we could see the whole property.

401
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 4: I looked at it on a map.

402
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:06,879
Speaker 6: We were going in a complete circle, coming all the

403
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:10,680
Speaker 6: way back to our room. If I'd just listened to Jonathan,

404
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,159
Speaker 6: we could have gone straight to the room saved us

405
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:17,520
Speaker 6: a lot of time. Sometimes in life, what we've seen

406
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:21,199
Speaker 6: model growing up is not the best route. Well, my

407
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 6: mother was a worrier. Now I'm a warrior. Can I

408
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:28,120
Speaker 6: tell you that's the long way? Well, my dad always

409
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 6: lost his temper, you know, Joel, like father, like son.

410
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 6: I can't control my temper either. That's the long way.

411
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 6: You need to examine what you do.

412
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,960
Speaker 4: Ask yourself. Am I taking the long way?

413
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,359
Speaker 6: Am I holding on to a grudge, not forgiving, because

414
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 6: that's what I've seen modeled. Am I living insecure, feeling

415
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,879
Speaker 6: less than because that's the way the people were that

416
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 6: raised me. Am I making poor choices, giving into temptation, compromising,

417
00:23:57,960 --> 00:23:59,440
Speaker 6: because that's all I've ever seen.

418
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 4: Friends, that's the long way.

419
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 6: Don't get stuck in a rut and go that way

420
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 6: year after year. Recognize what's happening and make the right adjustments.

421
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 4: I heard about this lady.

422
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 6: She wrote her autobiography in four very short chapters, go

423
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 6: something like this. Chapter one, I walked down the street.

424
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:25,160
Speaker 6: There was a deep hole in the sidewalk. I fell

425
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 6: into it.

426
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 4: It wasn't my fault.

427
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,639
Speaker 6: It took me a long time, but I finally got out.

428
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 6: Chapter two. I walked down the same street. There was

429
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:40,120
Speaker 6: a deep hole in the sidewalk. I fell into it.

430
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:41,359
Speaker 4: It was my fault.

431
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 6: It took me a long time, but I finally got out.

432
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:49,359
Speaker 6: Chapter three. I walked down the same street. There was

433
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 6: a deep hole in the sidewalk. I walked around it.

434
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:59,120
Speaker 6: Chapter four, I walked down a different street. But too

435
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 6: often we keep repeating the same mistakes, making excuses. It's

436
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,360
Speaker 6: not my fault, blaming the past, blaming our parents.

437
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 4: No, take responsibility.

438
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,199
Speaker 6: Don't go down that same path again and again, losing

439
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 6: your cool, compromising, worried, negative. If you'll break those cycles

440
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:22,440
Speaker 6: of repetitive behavior, you will go to a new level

441
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 6: of your destiny. In eighteen seventy four, a member of

442
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 6: the New York Prison Board noticed that there were six

443
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 6: people from the same family serving in one of the prisons.

444
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 6: He was intrigued and did a study. He traced the

445
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,200
Speaker 6: family line back to a man by the name.

446
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 4: Of Max Jukes.

447
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 6: Jukes was born in seventeen twenty. He was known in

448
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 6: the town as the Troublemaker, a heavy drinker with no integrity.

449
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,360
Speaker 6: He married a woman just like him. They had six

450
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 6: daughters and two sons. Twelve hundred of their descendants were studied.

451
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 6: Of those, three one hundred and ten were homeless, one

452
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,359
Speaker 6: hundred and eighty were alcoholics, one hundred and sixty were

453
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:10,679
Speaker 6: drug addicts, one hundred and fifty were criminals, while seven

454
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 6: of them committed murder. Another family that lived around that

455
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:19,200
Speaker 6: same time was studied. His name was Jonathan Edwards. He

456
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 6: was a famous theologian and the president of Princeton University.

457
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 6: He was born in seventeen o three and married his

458
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 6: wife Sarah.

459
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 4: He was a devoted.

460
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:32,159
Speaker 6: Family man that remained married for thirty one years until

461
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 6: his death. They had eleven children. Fourteen hundred of their

462
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 6: descendants were studied. Among them, thirteen were college presidents, sixty

463
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:48,200
Speaker 6: six were professors, one hundred were attorneys, eighty five were

464
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 6: authors of classic books, thirty two were state judges, sixty

465
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 6: six were physicians, and eighty were holders of public office,

466
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 6: including three governors, three US senators, and one Vice President

467
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 6: of the United States. What am I saying? It makes

468
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:10,639
Speaker 6: a difference what you're passing down. Your decisions are affecting

469
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 6: future generations. Like the Jukes, you may have some negative

470
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 6: things in your family line. They will continue until somebody

471
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 6: rises up and puts a stop to it. I'm saying

472
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:27,240
Speaker 6: today you can be that person. God has raised you

473
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,959
Speaker 6: up for such a time as this. You have the

474
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,359
Speaker 6: most powerful force in the universe on the inside of you.

475
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 6: Don't be complacent and learn to live with things that

476
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 6: are less than God's best. You will never change what

477
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,919
Speaker 6: you tolerate. You've got to put your foot down and

478
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:49,359
Speaker 6: say that's it. I'm not gonna live my life addicted, angry, depressed, defeated.

479
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:53,960
Speaker 6: I'm deactivating those genes and I'm gonna start making choices

480
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 6: that help my family and not hinder it. You can

481
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 6: be the one to start a godly heritage for your

482
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 6: family life. You can break any generational curse and start

483
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 6: a generational blessing. You don't have to eat the sour grapes.

484
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,760
Speaker 6: The sovereign Lord is still alive. If you'll learn to

485
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 6: activate the right genes make choices that honor God, then

486
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 6: I believe and declare you will break every negative.

487
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 4: Cycle that's held you back.

488
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 6: You and your family will rise to a new level

489
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 6: of honor, and you will always live under the blessing

490
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 6: and never the curse.
