Speaker 6: promise you we will make you feel right at home.

47
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 6: I like to start with something funny, and I heard

48
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 6: about this wealthy man. He was known for being eccentric.

49
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,360
Speaker 6: He was having a big party at his house. In

50
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 6: his backyard, he had this huge swimming pool filled with

51
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 6: sharks and alligators. He announced to the guest, anyone that

52
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 6: will swim across my pool, I'll give.

53
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,639
Speaker 4: You anything you want. In a few minutes, there was

54
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 4: a big splash.

55
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 6: This man was in there, going ninety to nothing, dodging sharks,

56
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 6: maneuvering around alligators, made it to the other side just

57
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,080
Speaker 6: in the nick of time. The owner said, Wow, you're

58
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 6: the bravest man I've ever met.

59
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 4: Now, what do you want me to give you?

60
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 6: The man said, what I want more than anything else

61
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 6: is the name of the person that just pushed me in.

62
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 6: Say it like you mean it. This is my Bible.

63
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 6: I am what it says I am. I have what

64
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 6: it says I have. I can do what it says

65
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 6: I can do. Today I will be taught the word

66
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 6: of God. I boldly confess. My mind is alert, my

67
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 6: heart is receptive. I will never be the same. In Jesus' name.

68
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 4: God bless you.

69
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 6: I want to talk to you today about declaring favor.

70
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,919
Speaker 4: One way our faith is released.

71
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 6: Is through our words, and there is a connection between

72
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 6: speaking favor and receiving favor. It's not enough to just

73
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 6: believe you have favor. It's not enough to just expect favor.

74
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 6: You have to take it one step further and declare favor.

75
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 6: Every day you should declare, I have the favor of God.

76
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 6: Favor is on my family, Favor is on my health,

77
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 6: Favor is on my business, Favor is on my finances.

78
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:52,559
Speaker 4: When you speak.

79
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 6: Something out, you give it the right to come to past.

80
00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 6: When you face difficult situations, instead of being discouraged thinking

81
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 6: why did this happen, you need to declare. The favor

82
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 6: of God is turning this around. Favor is bringing healing, freedom, vindication,

83
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 6: victory into my life. It's one thing to think it,

84
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,600
Speaker 6: but when you declare it, angels go to work in

85
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 6: the unseen realm, things begin to change. We prayed, we believed,

86
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 6: we'd hoped. That's good, but it's time to start speaking favor.

87
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:30,280
Speaker 6: Speak favor over your finances. Father, Thank you that your

88
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 6: favor is bringing me clients. Thank you that your favor

89
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 6: is causing me to stand out. Thank you that what

90
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 6: I touch will prosper and succeed. The scripture says Jesus

91
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 6: increased in favor with God and with people.

92
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 4: You can increase in favor.

93
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 6: The more you thank God for it, the more you

94
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 6: declare it, the more favor you're.

95
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 4: Going to see. Joe, you say I have favor, but

96
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 4: I never get good breaks. I never see anything unusual.

97
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 6: Maybe it's because you're not declaring it. Why don't you

98
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,559
Speaker 6: step it up a notch all through the day, Father,

99
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 6: thank you that your favor is endorsing me. Thank you

100
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 6: that your favor is bringing me into prominence. Thank you

101
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 6: that favor is taking me to new levels. That's not

102
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:21,239
Speaker 6: just being positive, that's releasing your faith for the favor

103
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 6: of God. There were five of us children growing up.

104
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 6: We never left the house without my mother saying, Father,

105
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 6: thank you that my children have your favor.

106
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 4: Work for all of us except my brother Paul. Four

107
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 4: out of five is not bad.

108
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 6: But it's good to pray over your children. Ask God

109
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,839
Speaker 6: to protect them, guide them, give them wisdom. But don't

110
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 6: stop there.

111
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 4: Speak favor over them.

112
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 6: Father, Thank you that my children have favor with their teachers,

113
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 6: favor with other students, Favor that causes them to excel

114
00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 6: David did this. He said, surely goodness and mercy will

115
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 6: follow me all the days of my life. The word goodness,

116
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:09,039
Speaker 6: in one translation is favor. He was saying, surely, favor.

117
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 4: Follows me all of my life.

118
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 6: In effect, he was saying, Favor is keeping enemies from

119
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 6: defeating me. Favor is making me attractive. Favor is bringing

120
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 6: promotion and opportunity. He didn't just think about it. He

121
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 6: didn't just hope it would work out. He spoke favor

122
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 6: over his life. No wonder, the prophet Samuel came to

123
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 6: him and annointed him the next king. No wonder, he

124
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 6: defeated a giant twice his size. No wonder, King Saul

125
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 6: couldn't kill him. When you're constantly talking about the favor

126
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 6: of God, bragging on.

127
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 4: His goodness, you will go places you couldn't go on

128
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:48,600
Speaker 4: your own.

129
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 6: You will overcome obstacles that seem impossible. Maybe you've been

130
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,279
Speaker 6: single for a long time, you don't think you'll ever

131
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 6: meet the right person. Start declaring the favor of God.

132
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 6: God is bringing someone awesome into my life. Favor is

133
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 6: making me attractive. Favor is putting me.

134
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 4: At the right place at the right time.

135
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 6: If you're struggling in your finances instead of complaining, the

136
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 6: Favor of God is bringing increase in promotion. Favor is

137
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 6: opening doors that I can't open. Favor is causing good

138
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 6: breaks to come to me. Or the medical report doesn't

139
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 6: look good, you could just pray about it. Hope you

140
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 6: get better. Start declaring. The favor of God is bringing healing.

141
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 6: The favor of God is causing me to recover. The

142
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 6: Favor of God is helping me to defy the odds

143
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 6: with long life.

144
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 4: God will satisfy me.

145
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 6: Ever since I've started ministering, I've said, Father, thank you

146
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 6: that your favor causes me to stand out that when

147
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 6: people turn me on, they can't turn me off. Every

148
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 6: week somebody tells me I was flipping through the channels.

149
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 6: I don't like TV minuts, I never watched them.

150
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 4: But Joel, I.

151
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 6: Turned you on and I couldn't turn you off. I

152
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 6: know that wasn't a coincidence. It wouldn't have happened if

153
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 6: I had not declared favor. The dreams God has put

154
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 6: in your heart, you need to speak favor over them.

155
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 6: Problems that look impossible, declare the favor of God is

156
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 6: turning them around. Nee Amiah in the scripture, had a

157
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 6: dream to rebuild the walls around Jerusalem. They were torn

158
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 6: down and the people were there unprotected.

159
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:33,359
Speaker 4: This seemed impossible.

160
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 6: Neomiah was living a thousand miles away, working as a.

161
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 4: Cup bearer to the king.

162
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 6: He didn't have the influence, the connections, the resources, the funding.

163
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 6: But when God gives you a dream, he lines up

164
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,840
Speaker 6: everything you need. His favor will cause it to all

165
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 6: come together. The question is are you going to activate

166
00:08:55,520 --> 00:09:00,199
Speaker 6: this favor. Neimiah wasn't a cabinet member, he wasn't the

167
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 6: king's executive staff.

168
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 4: He was working in the kitchen, but he understood this principle.

169
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 6: The favor on his life would help him accomplish dreams

170
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,440
Speaker 6: he couldn't accomplish on his own. He asked the king

171
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 6: for permission to return to Jerusalem to work on the project.

172
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:21,679
Speaker 6: For some reason, the king liked him. Didn't make sense

173
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 6: to let him off that long, but the king said yes.

174
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 6: Neemiah said, I'm going to need protection. Will you give

175
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 6: me a letter addressed to all the leaders in the

176
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 6: cities I'm traveling through, telling them who I am. The

177
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 6: king agreed. Neemiah didn't stop there. He said one more thing, King,

178
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 6: I don't have any supplies to rebuild the wall. I

179
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 6: don't have any money. I need a letter from you

180
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 6: asking the people that own the lumber mills and the

181
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 6: stone factories to.

182
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 4: Give me the materials that I need.

183
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 6: When you know you have favor, you'll have a boldness,

184
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:03,080
Speaker 6: a confidence to ask big, to expect advantages.

185
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 4: Again, the king said yes. In Nehemiah too, he.

186
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 6: Said, the King granted me these requests because the gracious

187
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 6: hand of God was upon me. He was saying, I

188
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 6: know why all this happened. The favor of God is

189
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 6: on my life. When you see God's favor, always take

190
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 6: time to thank him. Take a moment to say, Lord,

191
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 6: I recognize this was your goodness.

192
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 4: Thank you for favoring me.

193
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:34,199
Speaker 6: Thank you for making things happen that I couldn't make happen.

194
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 6: Neemiah started on the wall, and he had all kinds

195
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 6: of opposition, but every time the favor of God helped

196
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,959
Speaker 6: him to overcome. It should have taken him more than

197
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 6: a year to rebuild it, but he did it in

198
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 6: just fifty two days.

199
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 4: God's favor will accelerate things.

200
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 6: So now going to take as long as you think

201
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 6: to accomplish your dreams, to recover from the illness, to

202
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 6: pay your house off. The favor on your life is

203
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:08,319
Speaker 6: speeding things up. Neebiah said in verse eighteen, I told

204
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 6: all the people how the gracious hand of God was

205
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 6: on my life. He was constantly bragging on God's goodness,

206
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 6: constantly talking about his favor. When you face situations that

207
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 6: seem impossible, don't talk about how big the problem is.

208
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 4: Do like Nehemiah and start declaring, the gracious hand of

209
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 4: God is on my life.

210
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 6: Well, your child is off course, yes, but the favor

211
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 6: of God is.

212
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:36,679
Speaker 4: Bringing him back.

213
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,959
Speaker 6: You can't start your business, you don't have the connections. Yes,

214
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 6: but I have an advantage. The favor of God is

215
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 6: bringing the right people. Well, the medical report says you're done, yes,

216
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 6: but I have another report. It says I will live

217
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 6: and not die. Father, thank you that your gracious hand

218
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 6: is on me. Think you that your favor is doing

219
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 6: what medicine cannot do. Well, Joel, I tried this for

220
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:03,560
Speaker 6: two weeks and nothing happened.

221
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 4: This needs to be a way of life.

222
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:10,719
Speaker 6: Where every day, whether it's sunny or rainy, whether you're

223
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 6: on the mountaintop or in the valley, you get up

224
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,439
Speaker 6: in the morning and say I have the favor of God.

225
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 6: That's not just to remind yourself, not just to show

226
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 6: God that you're trusting him, but you're.

227
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 4: Showing the enemy who you belong to.

228
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 6: And the scripture says, if you will acknowledge God in

229
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:34,439
Speaker 6: all your ways, he will crown your efforts with success.

230
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 6: One way to acknowledge God is all through the day under.

231
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 4: Your breath, declare his favor.

232
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 6: Before you make that presentation at work, Father, thank you

233
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 6: that I have favor with these people going to the mall. Lord,

234
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 6: thank you that your favor will help me find what

235
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,479
Speaker 6: I need. The favor of God.

236
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:55,959
Speaker 4: Will help you get the best deals.

237
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 6: Favor will put you at the right place at the

238
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 6: right time. You pull into a crowded parking lot, right

239
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 6: when you drive in, that car backs out. You get

240
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,440
Speaker 6: that upfront spot. That wasn't a lucky break. That was

241
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 6: the fever on your life. Years ago, I promised our

242
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 6: daughter Alexandra that I would get her a cell phone.

243
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 6: The next day she came running, Dad, can we go

244
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:20,960
Speaker 6: to the store, And I said yes.

245
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 4: Jonathan heard we were going. He wanted to come.

246
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 6: Said that's great, Jonathan. We love to have you, but

247
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 6: you already have a cell phone. He said, I know, Dad,

248
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 6: I just want to look. When Victoria heard that we

249
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,680
Speaker 6: were all going, she decided to come along as well.

250
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 4: Turned into a family affair.

251
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,960
Speaker 6: Drive into the store under my breath, just out of habit,

252
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 6: I said, Lord, thank you for your favor, thank you

253
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 6: that you'll help us find what we need.

254
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 4: We walked in the store.

255
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 6: Men came out to wait on us, showed us some phones.

256
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 6: Alexandra found the one that she wanted. We were about

257
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 6: to check out. Jonathan came up and said, Dad, I

258
00:13:56,720 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 6: really want the newer version of my phone was not

259
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 6: even a year old, practically brand new, and I didn't

260
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 6: really want to do that.

261
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 4: The salesman asked to see my phone.

262
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 6: He typed something in the computer and said, you're due

263
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 6: for an upgrade at no charge. I said, well, great,

264
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,479
Speaker 6: give Jonathan the new phone and I'll take his.

265
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:18,560
Speaker 4: His was like new to me.

266
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 6: We were about to leave. The salesman said to Victoria,

267
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 6: what kind of phone.

268
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 4: Do you have? She showed him. He said, you need

269
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 4: a new phone. He checked the computer. She wasn't due

270
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 4: for several years. I thank them for checking for all

271
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 4: their help.

272
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 6: As we were walking out, the manager another man said,

273
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 6: wait a minute, she's not leaving without a new phone.

274
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 4: The salesman looked at the manager, like, what do you mean?

275
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 4: What do you want me to do? He said, just

276
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 4: give her a phone. His eyes got this big.

277
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 6: He said, you mean like give her like free, like

278
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 6: not charger. The manager said, yes, give her any phone

279
00:14:58,400 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 6: she wants.

280
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 4: We went in. I'm there to get one phone.

281
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 6: We walked out with four, but we only paid for one.

282
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 6: You may think that was good luck. I know that's

283
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 6: the favor of God. Driving home, I'll reached my hand

284
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 6: back to my children and said, come on, get some.

285
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 4: Of this favor off of me. I can't stand at all.

286
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 6: When you not only recognize you have favor, but you

287
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 6: declare favor, God will show out in your life. You

288
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 6: will see things that you don't deserve. If you're in

289
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 6: real estate, father, thank you that your favor is causing

290
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 6: my properties to sell. Thank you that favor is bringing

291
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 6: the right buyers. Before you take the exam at school, father,

292
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 6: think you that favor is causing me to excel before

293
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 6: you meet with those new clients. Lord, think you that

294
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 6: your favor is making me attractive. Well, Joel, God's got

295
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 6: bigger things to deal with than me getting a cell

296
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 6: phone or finding a good parking spot.

297
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 4: Can I tell you you are God's bad It's deal.

298
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 6: You are the apple of his eye. He wants to

299
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 6: show you his goodness. That's what favor is. Zachariah said,

300
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 6: ask for rain in the time of rain. Rain in

301
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 6: the scripture represents favor. This seems odd. If it's raining,

302
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 6: why do you need to ask for rain? God was saying,

303
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 6: just because my favor is available, you're not going to

304
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 6: experience it unless you.

305
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 4: Call for it. Unless you declare it.

306
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 6: You may not be able to see it. But right

307
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:40,640
Speaker 6: now it's raining. It's raining, healing, raining, freedom, raining, promotion, raining, spouses, raining,

308
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 6: good breaks, raining, abundance. God is showering his favor like

309
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 6: never before. My challenge is don't let it pass you by.

310
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 6: Don't go around just hoping believing. The way you get

311
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 6: in the rain.

312
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 4: Is by declaring favor.

313
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 6: Father, Thank you that your favor is open indoors no

314
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 6: man can shut. Thank you that your favor is bringing

315
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 6: good breaks, advantages, preferential treatment.

316
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 4: Lord, think you that.

317
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:14,359
Speaker 6: Favor is defeating enemies, turning negative situations around, breaking forces

318
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 6: that are trying to stop me. Every time you declare favor,

319
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 6: you're asking for the rain.

320
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 4: That's what allows God to show out in your life.

321
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:24,880
Speaker 4: I have these friends.

322
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 6: Their son played on a minor league baseball team. His dream,

323
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:30,959
Speaker 6: of course, was to make it to the big leagues.

324
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 6: He's extremely talented, led the division in hitting for several years,

325
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 6: but it seemed like every time he was about to

326
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 6: get promoted to the big leagues, something would come up.

327
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 6: He would get passed over. His parents told me again

328
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:49,439
Speaker 6: and again how he was leading the league in home runs,

329
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 6: how he was having a banner year, but for some

330
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 6: reason he would get overlooked. They could have been discouraged,

331
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 6: thought it's not meant to be. But they did what

332
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 6: I'm asking you to do. They kept declaring the favor

333
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 6: of God Father. Thank you that your favor is on

334
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 6: our son. Thank you that favor is putting him at

335
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,439
Speaker 6: the right place. Thank you that your favor is causing

336
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:16,120
Speaker 6: him to stand out. The team he played for had

337
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:20,160
Speaker 6: a star player in the major leagues in his same position.

338
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,479
Speaker 6: It looked like that player would be there for years,

339
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 6: but one day, unexpectedly, the star player requested a trade.

340
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 6: He was sent to another team. This young man was

341
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 6: suddenly promoted to the big leagues. He went on to

342
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 6: live out his dream of playing Major League Baseball. When

343
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 6: you declare God's favor, he will move people out of

344
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 6: the way.

345
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 4: To make room for you.

346
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 6: Favor will promote you suddenly, unexpectedly, things that you didn't

347
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 6: see coming. You may not see how you can accomplish

348
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 6: a dreamer, how you'll get well.

349
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 4: Doesn't look like it's ever going to change. I have

350
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 4: good news. It's raining.

351
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,880
Speaker 6: If you'll do your part and keep declaring God's favor.

352
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 6: Life with my friend, God is going to do something unusual,

353
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 6: something that you weren't expecting, where suddenly you're promoted, suddenly

354
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 6: you get well, or suddenly you meet.

355
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:19,359
Speaker 4: The right person.

356
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 6: When we acquired this building, we hired architects to draw

357
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 6: plans to see what it would take to renovate it.

358
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,919
Speaker 6: We had to build our own power plant plus an

359
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 6: additional five story building. The costs came right at one

360
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,680
Speaker 6: hundred million dollars. We didn't have those kinds of funds,

361
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 6: so we met with our bank to see what they

362
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:40,880
Speaker 6: would loan us.

363
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,880
Speaker 4: We had known these bankers for years, way back with

364
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:45,479
Speaker 4: my father.

365
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:49,440
Speaker 6: They knew the church's finances and how strong the ministry

366
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,440
Speaker 6: is and the potential for growth.

367
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 4: We met.

368
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 6: They were very nice, but they were as negative as

369
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,239
Speaker 6: can be. They told me all the reasons why it

370
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,680
Speaker 6: wasn't going to wor, how they could never take that

371
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 6: kind of risk of loaning us that money, how every

372
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:09,199
Speaker 6: bank was going to say no, on and on. I

373
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 6: left there so discouraged.

374
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 4: I was young. I didn't know any better.

375
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 6: I've learned since people don't have the final say. People

376
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:22,160
Speaker 6: don't control your destiny. People can't see the favor on

377
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:26,440
Speaker 6: your life. They don't know what God is about to do.

378
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 6: Don't let them talk you out of your dreams. Don't

379
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 6: let people convince you that you can't get well. You'll

380
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 6: never afford a nice house, You'll never break the addiction.

381
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 6: They're looking at the natural. We serve a supernatural God.

382
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 6: One touch of his favor will catapault you ahead. They

383
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 6: may be negative, discouraging, condescending. Let it go in one

384
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 6: ear and out the other. None of that can stop

385
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:57,400
Speaker 6: your purpose. The favor on your life will defy the odds.

386
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 6: Favor will take you where you don't have the qualifications

387
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:02,439
Speaker 6: on paper.

388
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,399
Speaker 4: It may not make sense. Don't worry. God knows what

389
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 4: he's doing.

390
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,679
Speaker 6: I woke up the next morning with a fire in

391
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:15,120
Speaker 6: my spirit. Something on the inside said, Joel, God didn't bring.

392
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 4: You this far to leave you where you are.

393
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 6: He didn't move the rockets out of that building, caused

394
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 6: the mayor to be good to you, change city council

395
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 6: member's mind, bring you through a lawsuit so you could

396
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 6: get stuck where you are. I realized the favor of

397
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:34,359
Speaker 6: God had brought us that far, and the favor of

398
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 6: God was going to keep us going. Instead of being

399
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 6: discouraged thinking look how big these obstacles are, my attitude was, look.

400
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:44,199
Speaker 4: How big my God is.

401
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,199
Speaker 6: Father, Thank you that your favor is bringing the right people,

402
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:51,439
Speaker 6: people that will get behind the vision. Thank you that

403
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,879
Speaker 6: your favor is making a way where I don't see away.

404
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 4: We decided to try another bank.

405
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:02,120
Speaker 6: We had never met these people, never had any contact,

406
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 6: But when we walked in it was night and day difference.

407
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:07,879
Speaker 6: From the very beginning.

408
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 4: They were for us.

409
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 6: They had a letter on the table offering us a

410
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 6: loan in the mount three times what the other bank said.

411
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 6: We had never gat They hadn't even seen our finances, They.

412
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 4: Never looked at our books.

413
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 6: When I saw they would loan us that much. I said,

414
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 6: how about loaning us the whole amount so.

415
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 4: We can do it all. They said, that won't be

416
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 4: a problem. We'll make that happen.

417
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 6: God has these divine connections lined up for you, people

418
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 6: that will be behind your vision, people that will be

419
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:43,919
Speaker 6: for you, not people that you have to convince. You

420
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 6: may not have seen them yet, but they are in

421
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 6: your future. God has already ordained them to help you.

422
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 6: The favor on your life is going to close the

423
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,360
Speaker 6: wrong doors, but open the right doors now, Joel, I've

424
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 6: been declaring favor, but I don't see anything happen. Doesn't

425
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,160
Speaker 6: look like it's ever going to change. First, Peter says,

426
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:08,479
Speaker 6: hope to the end for the divine favor that is coming.

427
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 6: You may not have seen it yet, but favor is

428
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 6: on the way. Healing is on the way, promotion is

429
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 6: on the way. The right people, they're on the way.

430
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 4: I met a man a few.

431
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,679
Speaker 6: Years ago that was so discouraged. At one time his

432
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 6: company was very successful. He's in the design and graphics industry.

433
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 6: But over the last couple of years his business had

434
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:32,680
Speaker 6: gone down.

435
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 4: He'd lost all of his major clients. It looked like

436
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 4: bankruptcy was inevitable.

437
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 6: He went on and on telling me about the problem,

438
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,919
Speaker 6: going into great detail of explaining all the setbacks he

439
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 6: had suffered and how unfair it was. I finally had

440
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,920
Speaker 6: to interrupt him and say, we've talked long enough about

441
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 6: the problem. Let's start talking about the solution. Let's start

442
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 6: talking about what God can do. Let's talk of the

443
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:03,919
Speaker 6: fact that favor is on the way. We prayed together.

444
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 6: Then I said, there's something you have to do. Every morning.

445
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 6: You need to declare I have the favor of God.

446
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,879
Speaker 6: Favor is bringing me new clients. Favor is turning my

447
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,199
Speaker 6: business around. Then all through the day, under your breath,

448
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,919
Speaker 6: you keep thanking God for that favor. I saw him

449
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:23,119
Speaker 6: several months later.

450
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 4: He was like a new person, beaming with joy.

451
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 6: He told how at his lowest moment, when he thought

452
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:34,240
Speaker 6: he was done, a company contacted him that he had

453
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 6: never worked for and asked him to make a presentation.

454
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 6: They chose him over several major firms. He said, with

455
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 6: this one new client, I will have more income than

456
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,879
Speaker 6: all my other clients combined. He's on pace to have

457
00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:53,680
Speaker 6: a record year. And what you're facing may seem impossible.

458
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,680
Speaker 6: Don't talk about the problem, talk about the solution. Talk

459
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 6: about the fact that favor is on the way. Yes,

460
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,639
Speaker 6: my finances may be low, but I know favor is coming.

461
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 6: These people at work aren't treating me right. I'm not

462
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:11,360
Speaker 6: gonna live bitter. I know favor is on the way. Well,

463
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,719
Speaker 6: my child is off course, but I know it's only temporary.

464
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 6: The favor of God is turning it around. This is

465
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,119
Speaker 6: what a man named Zaruba Belt did in the scripture.

466
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 6: He was in charge of rebuilding the temple, but everything

467
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:28,720
Speaker 6: came against him. City leaders hired attorneys to try to

468
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,400
Speaker 6: stop him. Wouldn't give him the permits. Other people were

469
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:33,960
Speaker 6: causing strife and trouble.

470
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,200
Speaker 4: Looked impossible. He could have been discouraged.

471
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 6: He said, who are you, o, great mountain that stands

472
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:45,959
Speaker 6: before me. You shall become a mere mole hill. I

473
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 6: will finish the temple by shouting grace to it. He

474
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 6: was saying, I have this big mountain in front of me,

475
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:55,080
Speaker 6: but I'm not worried.

476
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 4: I know it's about to become a mole hill. How

477
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,360
Speaker 4: was this going to happen? What was his secret?

478
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 6: By speaking grace to it? Another word for grace is favor.

479
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 6: He was saying, yes, this obstacle is big, but I

480
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:14,640
Speaker 6: have the favor of God. Favor is making my crooked

481
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 6: places straight. Favor is defeating my enemies. Favor is going

482
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:22,880
Speaker 6: to help me finish this project. He didn't talk about

483
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:27,360
Speaker 6: his mountain. He talked to his mountain. When you face challenges,

484
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 6: don't get discouraged. Speak favor over them. Look at your

485
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 6: bank account and speak favor to it. I will lend

486
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:35,359
Speaker 6: and not borrow.

487
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,160
Speaker 4: What I touch will prosper and succeed. Speak favor over

488
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 4: your health.

489
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 6: This sickness is not the end. This pain is not permanent.

490
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 6: The favor of God is bringing healing. Speak favor over

491
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 6: the legal situation.

492
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 4: I will be victorious.

493
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 6: The favor of God is keeping my enemies from defeating me.

494
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 6: It's not enough to just pray about it. It's not

495
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,400
Speaker 6: enough to just believe. What's want to turn the mountain

496
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:05,919
Speaker 6: into a mole hill is by speaking grace. Now. I

497
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:09,400
Speaker 6: want to make a declaration of favor over you today.

498
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 4: If you will let this take.

499
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,920
Speaker 6: Root in your spirit, I believe change that have held

500
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,920
Speaker 6: you back are going to be broken and you're going

501
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,680
Speaker 6: to be released into a new level of your destiny.

502
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 6: I declare right now, the favor of God is on

503
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 6: your life.

504
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 4: In a new way.

505
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 6: I declare favor over your family, favor over your marriage,

506
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 6: favor over your finances. I declare favor at work, Favor

507
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 6: with your boss, Favor with your colleagues, favor with your clients.

508
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:50,400
Speaker 6: I declare favor is opening new doors of opportunity, bringing promotion, increase, abundance,

509
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,480
Speaker 6: causing the right people to be drawn to you.

510
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 4: I declare favor over your health, strength, energy, wholeness.

511
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 6: You are free from sickness, chronic pain, depression, addictions.

512
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:10,080
Speaker 4: I speak favor over every force that's trying to stop you.

513
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 6: I declare right now that mountain is becoming a mole hill.

514
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:19,439
Speaker 6: Like with Nehemiah, God's favor is going to accelerate it.

515
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 6: Things are going to happen sooner than you think. I

516
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 6: declare the favor of.

517
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:27,199
Speaker 4: God is going to catapult you to a new level.

518
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:28,240
Speaker 4: You're going to.

520
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 6: of your destiny in Jesus' name.

521
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 4: And if you receive it, can you say amen?

522
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 6: Today I'd like to give you an opportunity to make

523
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 6: Jesus lord of your life.

524
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 4: Would you pray with me?

525
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:52,120
