Speaker 4: you again for coming out today. And I like to

47
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 4: get started with something funny and heard about this five

48
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 4: year old boy named Tommy. Was his grandmother's birthday, and

49
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 4: after wishing her a happy birthday, he said, grandmother, how

50
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 4: old are you? She said, Tommy, I'm thirty nine and

51
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 4: holding he thought about it a moment, said grandmother, how

52
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 4: old would you be if you let go hold up

53
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 4: your Bible say it like you mean it. This is

54
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 4: my Bible. I am what it says I am. I

55
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 4: have what it says I have. I can do what

56
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 4: it says I can do. Today I will be taught

57
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 4: the word of God. I boldly confess my mind is alert,

58
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 4: my heart is receptive. I will never be the same.

59
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 4: In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want to talk

60
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 4: to you today about seeing yourself as a masterpiece. Too

61
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 4: many people go around feeling wrong on the inside. They

62
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 4: don't really like who they are. They think if I

63
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 4: was just a little taller, if I had a better personality,

64
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 4: if my metabolism was a little faster, or if I

65
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 4: just looked like her, then I would feel good about myself. Now.

66
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 4: When God created you, he went to great links to

67
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:32,239
Speaker 4: make you exactly like he wanted. You didn't accidentally get

68
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 4: your personality. You didn't just happen to get your height,

69
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 4: your looks, your skin color, your gifts. God designed you

70
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 4: on purpose to be the way you are. You have

71
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 4: what you need to fulfill your destiny. If you needed

72
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 4: to be taller, God would have made you taller. If

73
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 4: you needed to be a different nationality, God would have

74
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 4: made you that way. If you needed to look like

75
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 4: her instead of you, you would have looked like her.

76
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 4: You've got to be confident in who God made you

77
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 4: to be. And Ephesians two ten says we are God's masterpiece.

78
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 4: That means you are not ordinary. You didn't come off

79
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 4: an assembly line. You weren't mass produced. You are one

80
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 4: of a kind. Nobody in this world has your fingerprints.

81
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 4: There will never be another you. If you're going to

82
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 4: reach your highest potential, you have to see yourself as unique,

83
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 4: as an original, as God's very own masterpiece. When I

84
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 4: was in my early twenties, I was sitting on the

85
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 4: beach in India all alone, watching the sun set. It

86
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 4: was a magnificent scene. The water was so blue as

87
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,719
Speaker 4: far as I could see from the right to the left,

88
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 4: miles and miles of beach and palm trees. The sun

89
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 4: was huge on the horizon just about to set. As

90
00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:00,479
Speaker 4: I sat there, reflecting, thinking about my life, heard God

91
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 4: ask me something, not out loud, but just an impression

92
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 4: down in here. He said, Joel, you think this is

93
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 4: a beautiful picture, do you? I said, yes, God, I

94
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 4: think this is a magnificent picture. He said, well, what

95
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 4: do you think would be my most prized painting, my

96
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 4: most incredible creation. I thought about it a moment. I said, God,

97
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 4: it must be this sunset. This is magnificent. He said no,

98
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 4: it's not this. Earlier that year i'd been in the

99
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 4: Rocky Mountains. They were spectacular. I said, God, I bet

100
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 4: it's the Rocky Mountains. He said no, not that thought.

101
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 4: What could it be the Solar System, the Milky Way.

102
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 4: He said no, Joel, my most prized possession, the painting

103
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 4: that I'm the most proud of, is you. I thought me.

104
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 4: Couldn't be me. I'm an ordinary I'm just like everybody else.

105
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 4: He said, no, you don't understand. When I made the

106
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:58,239
Speaker 4: solar system, the waters, the mountains, I was proud of that.

107
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 4: That was great. But when I made you, I breathed

108
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 4: my very life into you. I created you in my

109
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 4: own image. Friends, you are God's most prized possession. Don't

110
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 4: go around feeling wrong about yourself. Quit wishing you were taller,

111
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 4: had a better personality, or looked like somebody else. You've

112
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,039
Speaker 4: been painted by the most incredible painter there could ever be.

113
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 4: When God created you, he stepped back and looked, said

114
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 4: that was good. Another masterpiece. He stamped his approval on

115
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,919
Speaker 4: you. You don't how on the back of our shirts most

116
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,719
Speaker 4: of the time there's a tag says made in America,

117
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 4: made in China, made in Mexico. Well, somewhere on you,

118
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:47,159
Speaker 4: there's a tag that says made by Almighty God. Now

119
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 4: put your shoulders back, hold your head up high. You

120
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 4: are extremely valuable. You have royal blood flowing through your veins.

121
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 4: You are wearing a crown of favor. When those thoughts

122
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 4: come in the morning telling you everything that you're not,

123
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 4: you need to remind yourself. I've got the fingerprints of

124
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 4: God all over me. The way I look, the way

125
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 4: I smile, my gifts, my personality. I know I am

126
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 4: not average. I am a masterpiece. That's the thoughts that

127
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 4: should be playing in our mind all day long, not

128
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 4: I'm slow, I'm unattractive, I'm just one of the seven

129
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 4: billion people on earth. No, God did not make anything average.

130
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 4: If you have breath to breathe, you are a masterpiece.

131
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 4: Now people may try to make you feel average. Your

132
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 4: own thoughts may try to convince you that you're ordinary.

133
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 4: Life will try to push you down and steal your

134
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 4: sense of value. That's why all through the day you

135
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 4: have to remind yourself who your painter is. When you

136
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 4: dwell on the fact that almighty God breathed his life

137
00:07:55,400 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 4: into you, he approved you, equipped you, empowered you. Any

138
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 4: thoughts of low self esteem inferiority, they won't have a chance.

139
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 4: A few years ago, I was in somebody's home and

140
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 4: they have all these paintings on the wall, and to me,

141
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 4: they weren't very impressive. In fact, some of them look

142
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 4: like they had been painted by a child, very abstract,

143
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 4: modern paint thrown here and there. But later that evening

144
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 4: they mentioned how they had paid over a million dollars

145
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 4: for just one of those paintings. I looked at it again, thought, wow,

146
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 4: that is beautiful, isn't it. Come to find out it

147
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 4: was an original Picasso, painted by the famous artist Pablo Picasso.

148
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 4: What dawned on me that night is it's not so

149
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 4: much what the painting looks like, it's who the painter is.

150
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 4: The painting gets its value from its creator. In the

151
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 4: same way, our value doesn't come because of what we

152
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 4: look like, or what we do, or who we know.

153
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 4: Our value comes from the fact that Almighty God is

154
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:09,719
Speaker 4: our painter. Now, don't criticize what God has painted. Accept yourself.

155
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,679
Speaker 4: Approve yourself. You are not an accident. You have been

156
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 4: fearfully and wonderfully made. Now, I wonder what would happen

157
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,679
Speaker 4: if all through the day, instead of putting ourselves down,

158
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 4: instead of dwelling on the negative, we would go around

159
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:30,479
Speaker 4: thinking I'm a masterpiece, I'm wonderfully made, I'm talented, I'm original,

160
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 4: I have everything that I need. See, the enemy doesn't

161
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 4: want you to feel good about yourself. He would love

162
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 4: for you to go through life listening to the nagging

163
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:45,079
Speaker 4: voices reminding you of everything that you're not. I dare

164
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 4: you to get up each day and say, good morning,

165
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:52,839
Speaker 4: you wonderful thing. You are fearfully and wonderfully made. That's

166
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 4: what David said. So on one thirty nine, God, I

167
00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 4: praise you because you have made me in an amazing way.

168
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 4: What you have done is wonderful. How many of us

169
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 4: will be bold enough to say, like David, I'm amazing,

170
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 4: I'm a masterpiece. Most people those thoughts never enter into

171
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 4: their mind. They're too busy putting themselves down, focusing on

172
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:22,319
Speaker 4: their flaws, comparing themselves to others that they think are better. No,

173
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 4: your painter, your creator says you're amazing, You're wonderful, You're

174
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 4: a masterpiece. Now it's up to you to get an

175
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 4: agreement with God. If you go around focused on your flaws,

176
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 4: listening to what other people are saying, you can miss

177
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 4: your destiny. The recording that should be playing in our

178
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:46,599
Speaker 4: mind all day long is I'm valuable, I'm a masterpiece.

179
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 4: I'm a child of a most high God. Some of you,

180
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 4: this is what's holding you back. Your recording is negative.

181
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,839
Speaker 4: There are enough people in life already against you. Don't

182
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 4: be against yourself. Change your recording, start seeing yourself as

183
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 4: the masterpiece God created you to be. I read a

184
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 4: story about this man that died in extreme poverty. At

185
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:16,079
Speaker 4: one point, he was homeless, living on the streets, barely

186
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 4: got by in life. After the funeral, some of his

187
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:23,359
Speaker 4: relatives went to the Rundown apartment and gathered up his belongings.

188
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 4: He had a painting on the wall. They took it

189
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 4: down and sold it at a garage cell. The person

190
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 4: that bought it took the painting to the local art

191
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 4: gallery to learn more about it. Come to find out

192
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 4: it was extremely valuable. It had been painted back in

193
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 4: the eighteen hundreds by famous artist. It ended up selling

194
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 4: at an auction for over three million dollars. That man

195
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 4: lived his whole life in poverty because he didn't realize

196
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 4: what he had. In the same way, every one of

197
00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 4: you has been painted by the most famous artists there

198
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 4: could ever be. But if you don't understand your value,

199
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 4: you go around thinking, Wow, I'm just kind of average.

200
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,080
Speaker 4: I'm not that talented, and I've made a lot of

201
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 4: mistakes in life. If you let that negative recording play,

202
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 4: just like this man, even though you have everything you need,

203
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:22,679
Speaker 4: even though you're full of potential, you'll never tap into it.

204
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 4: That's why every morning you need to remind yourself, I

205
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 4: am not average, I am not ordinary. I have the

206
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 4: fingerprints of God all over me. I am a masterpiece.

207
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 4: There was an article in a medical magazine. It talked

208
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 4: about how these researchers scientifically calculated how much money the

209
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 4: human body is worth. They added up the cost of

210
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:53,600
Speaker 4: all the enzymes, cells, tissue, organs, hormones, everything contained in

211
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 4: the body. They concluded that an average sized person is

212
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 4: worth six million dollars. You've heard of the six million

213
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 4: dollar man. Today, I am looking at six million dollar people.

214
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 4: You could put your shoulders back, you can have a

215
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 4: spring in your step. Your heavenly father has invested six

216
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 4: million dollars into you. The good news is you didn't

217
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 4: even have to pay taxes on it. Think of this,

218
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 4: six million dollars is an average sized person. Some of

219
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:28,959
Speaker 4: you are worth nine million dollars. That's the way to

220
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 4: look at it. You're not overweight, You're just more valuable.

221
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:37,119
Speaker 4: Jesus said to love your neighbor as you love yourself.

222
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 4: If you don't love yourself in a healthy way, you

223
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 4: will never be able to love others in the way

224
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 4: that you should. And this is why some people don't

225
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 4: have good relationships. If you don't get along with yourself,

226
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 4: you'll never get along with others. We all have weaknesses, shortcomings,

227
00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 4: things that we wish were different, But God never does

228
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 4: designed us to go through life being against ourselves. The

229
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 4: opinion you have of yourself is the most important opinion

230
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 4: that you have. If you see yourself as less than,

231
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,599
Speaker 4: not talented, not valuable, then you will become exactly that.

232
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 4: You are constantly conveying what you feel on the inside,

233
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 4: even subconsciously, you're sending messages out. If you feel unattractive

234
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 4: on the inside, you can be the most beautiful person

235
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 4: in the world, but you will convey feelings of unattractiveness.

236
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 4: That's going to push people away. The problem is on

237
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 4: the inside you carry yourself the way you see yourself.

238
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 4: I've seen just the opposite happen. A few years ago.

239
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 4: I met a young lady, and on the surface, in

240
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 4: the natural and I say this very respectfully, she wasn't

241
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 4: necessarily attractive, she didn't have a lot of natural beauty,

242
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 4: But can I tell you, on the inside she had

243
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 4: it going on. She knew she was made in the

244
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 4: image of Almighty God. She knew she was crowned with favor.

245
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 4: She may have looked ordinary, but she thought extraordinary. She

246
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 4: carried herself like a queen. She walked like she was royalty,

247
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 4: She smiled like she was Miss America. She dressed like

248
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 4: she was headed for the runway. She may have bought

249
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 4: it at a second hand store, but she wore it

250
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 4: like it was brand new from sax fifth. All I

251
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 4: could say was, you go girl? What was the difference?

252
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 4: On the inside, she sees herself beautiful, strong, talented, valuable.

253
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 4: What's on the inside will eventually show up on the

254
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 4: outside because she sees herself as a masterpiece. She exudes strength,

255
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 4: beauty confidence. Here's the key. People see you the way

256
00:15:55,840 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 4: you see yourself. If you see yourself strong, talented, valuable

257
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 4: with it, that's the way other people will see you.

258
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 4: That's the messages you're sending out. But if you see

259
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 4: yourself as less than, not talented, not valuable, that's the

260
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 4: way others will see you, some of you. If you

261
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 4: would change the opinion you have of yourself, if you

262
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 4: had quit focusing on your flaws and everything you wish

263
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 4: was different, if you'd quit comparing yourself to somebody else

264
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 4: that you think is better, and start loving yourself in

265
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 4: a healthy way, being proud of who God made you

266
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 4: to be. Then as you send out these different messages,

267
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 4: it's going to bring new opportunities, new relationships, new levels

268
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,680
Speaker 4: of God's favor. This is what the Israelites did. When

269
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 4: ten of the spies came back from the Promised Land.

270
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 4: They saw how huge their opponents were. They said to Moses,

271
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 4: we were in our own sites as grasshoppers, and so

272
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 4: we were in their sights. Notice they didn't say, Moses,

273
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 4: those people in so us they called us grasshoppers. No,

274
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:06,640
Speaker 4: they went in with a grasshopper mentality. They said, we

275
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 4: were in our own sits as grasshoppers. That's what they conveyed.

276
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 4: Here's the principle at work, and so we were in

277
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 4: their sights. In other words, they saw us the way

278
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 4: we saw ourselves. If you put off feelings of inferiority,

279
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,639
Speaker 4: people will treat you inferior. You may feel like you

280
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:31,360
Speaker 4: have a disadvantage, like the Israelites. You don't have the size,

281
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 4: the talent, the education. That's all right. All that matters

282
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 4: is Almighty God breeded his life into you. He created

283
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:43,480
Speaker 4: you as a person of destiny. He put seeds of

284
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,919
Speaker 4: greatness on the inside. Now do your part. Start seeing

285
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 4: yourself as the masterpiece God created you to be. The

286
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,199
Speaker 4: scripture talks about how God has made us to be

287
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 4: kings and priests unto him, men, you need to start

288
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 4: seeing yourself as a king. Women, start seeing yourself as

289
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:10,159
Speaker 4: a queen. Start carrying yourself like royalty, not in arrogance,

290
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:14,400
Speaker 4: thinking that you're better than others. I'm talking about inhumility.

291
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,199
Speaker 4: Be proud of who God made you to be. You

292
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 4: are not better than anyone else. But can I tell

293
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:25,160
Speaker 4: you are not less than anyone else. Doesn't matter how

294
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 4: many degrees they have, doesn't matter how important of a

295
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:33,879
Speaker 4: family they come from. Now understand, your father created the

296
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 4: whole universe. When he breathed his life into you, sent

297
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,159
Speaker 4: you to planet Earth. You didn't come as ordinary, you

298
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 4: didn't come as average. He put a crown of honor

299
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:49,879
Speaker 4: on your head. Now start thinking like royalty, talking like royalty,

300
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 4: dressing like royalty, walking like royalty, acting like royalty. I

301
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 4: was in England a few years ago and they were

302
00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 4: having a ceremony to honor the Queen. When the Queen

303
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:05,160
Speaker 4: walked in the room, you could feel the strength, the confidence,

304
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:09,959
Speaker 4: the dignity. She had her head held high, pleasant smile

305
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,440
Speaker 4: on her face. She waved at everyone like they were

306
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:18,120
Speaker 4: her best friend. What's interesting is there were all kinds

307
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 4: of important people in that room. There were presidents of

308
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:28,879
Speaker 4: other nations, world renowned entertainers, famous athletes, scientists, some of

309
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,679
Speaker 4: the brightest, most talented people in the world. And I

310
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 4: say this respectfully, but the Queen was not the most

311
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 4: beautiful person in the room. There were other ladies that

312
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,680
Speaker 4: were younger, much more beautiful. But by the way the

313
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,879
Speaker 4: Queen carried herself, you would have thought she was the

314
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:51,920
Speaker 4: cat's meow. She had it going on, strong confidence secure.

315
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 4: The Queen wasn't the wealthiest woman in the room. She

316
00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 4: wasn't the fittest nor the most educated. A lot of

317
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 4: people would have been intimidated walking into that room, but

318
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,719
Speaker 4: not her. She walked in like she owned the place.

319
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 4: Why she knows who she is. She's the Queen. She

320
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:15,640
Speaker 4: comes from a long line of royalty. It's been ingrained

321
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 4: in her thinking. I'm not average, I'm not ordinary. I

322
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,680
Speaker 4: am one of a kind, no doubt. Some mornings when

323
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 4: the Queen wakes up, the same thoughts come to her

324
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 4: mind that come to all of us. You're not as

325
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 4: beautiful as your sister, you're not as talented as your brother,

326
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:36,440
Speaker 4: you're not as smart as your coworker. Be intimidated your inferior.

327
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 4: The Queen lets that go in one ear and out

328
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 4: the other. She thinks, what are you talking about? Doesn't

329
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 4: matter how I compare to others. I'm the Queen. I've

330
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:51,119
Speaker 4: got royalty in my blood, in my dna is, generations

331
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:56,160
Speaker 4: of influence, honor, prestige. If you and I could ever

332
00:20:56,280 --> 00:21:00,280
Speaker 4: just start seeing ourselves as the kings the Queen means

333
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 4: God made us to be, we would never be intimidated again.

334
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 4: You don't have to be the most talented to feel

335
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 4: good about yourself. You don't have to have the most education,

336
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 4: the most success. When you understand your heavenly Father breths

337
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:20,879
Speaker 4: his life into you, you too, come from a long

338
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 4: line of royalty. Instead of being intimidated insecure by someone

339
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 4: that you think is more important, you can do like

340
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 4: the Queen. Just be at ease, Be kind, be confident,

341
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 4: be friendly, knowing that you are one of a kind. Ladies,

342
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,439
Speaker 4: you may not be the most beautiful person, but be

343
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:43,159
Speaker 4: confident you're the Queen. Men, you may not be the

344
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 4: most successful, but stand up tall. You're the king, not

345
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:51,120
Speaker 4: crowned by people, but crowned by Almighty God. A lot

346
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 4: of times we think, well, Joel, I can't feel good

347
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 4: about myself. I've got this addiction. I struggle with a

348
00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 4: bad temper. I've made a lot of misias in life.

349
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 4: I sure don't feel like a masterpiece. Here's the key.

350
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:09,160
Speaker 4: Your value is not based on your performance. You don't

351
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,160
Speaker 4: have to do enough good and then maybe God will

352
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:17,200
Speaker 4: approve you. God has already approved you. When Jesus was

353
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:21,439
Speaker 4: being baptized by John in the Jordan River, he hadn't

354
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 4: started his ministry yet. He had never opened one blind eye,

355
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 4: never raised the dead, never turned water into wine. He

356
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 4: had not performed one miracle. But a voice boomed out

357
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 4: of the heavens, and God said, this is my beloved son,

358
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 4: in whom I am well pleased. His father was pleased

359
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 4: with him because of who he was, and not because

360
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 4: of anything he had or had not done. We think, well,

361
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,200
Speaker 4: if I could break this addiction, then I'd feel good

362
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,639
Speaker 4: about myself. If I could read my Bible more, if

363
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,440
Speaker 4: I'd bite my tongue and not argue so much, then

364
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 4: maybe I and be against myself. Now, you've got to

365
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 4: learn to accept yourself while you're in the process of changing.

366
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,880
Speaker 4: We all have areas we need to improve, but we're

367
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 4: not supposed to go around down on ourselves because we

368
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 4: haven't arrived. When you're against yourself, it doesn't help you

369
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 4: to do better, it makes you do worse. You may

370
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,960
Speaker 4: have a bad habit you know you need to overcome.

371
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 4: But if you go around guilty, condemned, thinking about all

372
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 4: the times you've failed, the times you've blown it, that

373
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,960
Speaker 4: will not motivate you to go forward. That's going to

374
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 4: cause you to do worse. You've got to shake off

375
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:41,679
Speaker 4: the guilt, shake off the condemnation. You may not be

376
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:43,960
Speaker 4: where you want to be, but you can look back

377
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 4: and thank God. You're not where you used to be.

378
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 4: You're growing, you're making progress. Now do yourself a big

379
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 4: favor and quit listening to the accusing voices. That's the

380
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 4: enemy trying to convince you to be against yourself. He

381
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,640
Speaker 4: knows if you don't like yourself, you will never become

382
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:08,120
Speaker 4: what God created you to be. Genesis chapter one. God

383
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 4: had just created the heavens, the earth, the sea, the animals,

384
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 4: and Adam and Eve. Verse thirty one says God looked

385
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:19,919
Speaker 4: over all that he had made and saw how it

386
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:24,439
Speaker 4: was excellent in every way. When God looks at you,

387
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 4: he says, you are excellent in every way. Well, not me,

388
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:33,120
Speaker 4: Joel I've got these bad habits, I've got some shortcomings.

389
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 4: I've made some mistakes in the past. No, get out

390
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 4: of that defeated mentality. You may not be perfect, but

391
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:43,880
Speaker 4: God's not basing your value on your performance. He's looking

392
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,919
Speaker 4: at your heart. He's looking at the fact that you're trying.

393
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,640
Speaker 4: You wouldn't be here if you didn't have a heart

394
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 4: to please God. Now, quit being down on yourself, quit

395
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:57,959
Speaker 4: living condemned, and dare to believe you are excellent in

396
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 4: every wayitude should be. Yes, I may make some mistakes,

397
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 4: i may have some flaws and weaknesses, but I am

398
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 4: not going to live my life guilty, condemned. I know

399
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 4: God has already approved me. I am excellent in every way.

400
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 4: I am his masterpiece. If you're going to overcome in

401
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:23,679
Speaker 4: those areas, you have to not only stay positive toward yourself,

402
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 4: but be bold enough to celebrate who God made you

403
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 4: to be. Be proud of who you are. I know people,

404
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 4: they're good at celebrating others. They'll compliment their friends. They'll

405
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 4: brag on a cousin. You got to see my neighbor,

406
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 4: he's an awesome football player. You got to meet my sister.

407
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 4: She is so beautiful, and that's good. We should celebrate others,

408
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 4: but make sure you celebrate yourself. You are smart, you

409
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 4: are talented, you are beautiful. There is something special about you.

410
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 4: You can't get so caught up in celebrating others, putting

411
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 4: them on this high pedestal to where you think they

412
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:09,280
Speaker 4: are so great and I'm so average. She is so

413
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 4: beautiful and I am so plain. No, they may have

414
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 4: more natural beauty, more talent in some area, but let

415
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 4: me tell you, God didn't leave anybody out. You have

416
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 4: something that they don't have. You're good at something that

417
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:26,640
Speaker 4: they're not good at. And it's fine to celebrate them

418
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 4: and say, wow, look how great they are, as long

419
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,919
Speaker 4: as you follow it up by saying internally, and you

420
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 4: know what, I'm great too, I'm smart too, I'm talented too.

421
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,919
Speaker 4: It's like this man I heard about. He was the

422
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:43,160
Speaker 4: mayor of a small town. He was in a parade,

423
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:47,159
Speaker 4: riding in a float down main street with his wife

424
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 4: next to him. While he was waving at all the

425
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:53,919
Speaker 4: different people, he spotted his wife's former boyfriend in the crowd.

426
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 4: He owned and ran the local gas station. He whispered

427
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 4: to his wife, aren't you glad you didn't marry him,

428
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 4: you'd be working at a gas station. She whispered back. No,

429
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 4: if i'd have married him, he'd be the mayor. See,

430
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:13,199
Speaker 4: you got to know who you are. God breathed his

431
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:17,320
Speaker 4: life into you. You have royalty in your blood. You

432
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 4: are excellent in every way. Now put your shoulders back,

433
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:25,399
Speaker 4: hold your head up high, start carrying yourself like royalty.

434
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,679
Speaker 4: You are not average, You are not ordinary. You are

435
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:33,360
Speaker 4: a masterpiece. Get up every morning and remind yourself who

436
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 4: your painter is. Your value doesn't come because of who

437
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,760
Speaker 4: you are, It comes because of who you are. Remember,

438
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 4: the most important opinion you have is the opinion of yourself.

439
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 4: How you see yourself is how other people are going

440
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 4: to see you. I'm asking you today to see yourself

441
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 4: as a king, see yourself as a queen, not arrogantly,

442
00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,440
Speaker 4: but in humility. Now, some of you need to change

443
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 4: the recording that's playing in your mind from I'm slow,

444
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 4: I'm unattractive, I'm nothing special about me. No dare to say,

445
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 4: like David, I'm amazing, I'm a masterpiece. I'm talented. I

446
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 4: am one of a kind. If you will see yourself

447
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 4: as the masterpiece God created you to be, then you

448
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:23,120
Speaker 4: will go through life confident, secure your gifts and talents

449
00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 4: will come out to the full. The right people will

450
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 4: be drawn to you, and I believe and declare you

451
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 4: will overcome every obstacle, defeat every enemy. You will become

452
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 4: everything God's created you to be in Jesus' name. If

453
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 4: you receive it, can you say amen today? Well, you

454
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 4: never like to close our broadcast without giving you an

455
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:46,960
Speaker 4: opportunity to make Jesus the lord of your life. Would

456
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 4: you pray with me? Just say, Lord, Jesus, come into

457
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 4: my heart, make me clean. I make you my Lord

458
00:28:57,080 --> 00:29:01,640
