1
00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: Hi, this is Jolan Victoria. Thanks so much for listening

2
00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:07,520
Speaker 1: to the podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry. We

3
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:11,400
Speaker 1: believe you're going to have an awesome twenty twenty four, healthy, productive,

4
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: and favor filled. God bless you today and enjoy the message. Well,

5
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 1: God bless you. It's always a joy to come into

6
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 1: your homes. We love you and we know God has

7
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 1: great things in store for each one of you. And

8
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:25,920
Speaker 1: if you're ever in our area, I hope you'll stop

9
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: by and be a part of one of our services.

10
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 1: I promise you will make you feel right at home.

11
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 1: But thanks so much for tuning in today and thank

12
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 1: you again for coming out. I like to start with

13
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,520
Speaker 1: something funny each week and one day. Up in heaven,

14
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:39,880
Speaker 1: God said to the men, I want you to form

15
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 1: two lines. One line is for the men who were

16
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 1: the head of the house, and the other line is

17
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:47,839
Speaker 1: for the men who let the woman be the head

18
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:50,560
Speaker 1: of the house. The line where the woman ran the

19
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 1: house was one hundred miles long. There was only one

20
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: man in the other line. God said, men, I'm ashamed

21
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 1: of you. I created you to be the head. Only

22
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: one man stood up to make me proud. He turned

23
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: to him and said, son, tell him, how did you

24
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: manage to be the only one in this line? He

25
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 1: looked kind of confused and said, I don't know. My

26
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: wife told me to stand here. All right, hold up

27
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,680
Speaker 1: your bible. Say it like you mean it. This is

28
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 1: my Bible. I am what it says I am. I

29
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 1: have what it says I have. I can do what

30
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 1: it says I can do. Today I will be taught

31
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 1: the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind is alert,

32
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 1: my heart is receptive. I will never be the same.

33
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 1: In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want to talked

34
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,919
Speaker 1: to you today about how your set time is coming.

35
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 1: So often we wonder why something is taking so long.

36
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: We prayed, we believed, but we don't see anything happening.

37
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: We get discouraged and start thinking that it's never going

38
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: to happen. But here's what I've learned. The moment God

39
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: puts the promise in your heart, the moment the dream

40
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 1: took root. At that same moment, God has established a

41
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: set time to bring it to pass. He will not

42
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: give you a promise without appointing a specific time to

43
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,239
Speaker 1: fulfill it. When we understand this, it takes away the frustration.

44
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 1: We don't get discouraged because we don't see anything happening.

45
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 1: We know the set time is coming. We don't give

46
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 1: up because it's taken a long time. We know the

47
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: set time is the right time. We don't believe the

48
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 1: lies that it's never going to happen. We know the truth.

49
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: The moment the promise took root, God established the set time.

50
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,079
Speaker 1: As long as we stay in faith, as long as

51
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: we keep believing, nothing can stop that set time. Maybe

52
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 1: you're standing on the promise that as for me and

53
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: my house, we will serve the Lord. You know down deep,

54
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 1: that's for you. It's taken root in your spirit. But

55
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,360
Speaker 1: when you look at your family, it doesn't look like

56
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 1: it's ever going to happen. The more you pray, it

57
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 1: seems like the worse they do. If you just look

58
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,239
Speaker 1: at it in the natural, you'll get discouraged, possibly give

59
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 1: up on the promise. You've got to remind yourself of

60
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 1: this truth. God has already set a time for each

61
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 1: of your family members to come to know Him. He

62
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: already established it the moment you prayed. You don't have

63
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 1: to know when it is. You just have to keep believing,

64
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,519
Speaker 1: knowing that it is on its way. Friends, in your future,

65
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 1: there is a set time for you to accomplish dreams.

66
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: There is a set time for you to meet the

67
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 1: right people. There is a set time for you to

68
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: come out of debt, a set time for problems to

69
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 1: turn around. That's what it says in Tobacca. The vision

70
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: is for an appointed time. Though it terry waited earnestly

71
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: for it, it will surely come. One translation says it

72
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: won't be one second late. That tells me we don't

73
00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: have to live frustrated because it's not happening on our Timetabe.

74
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: I don't have to be discouraged thinking I'm missing out,

75
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: I'm getting too old. I'm never going to get to

76
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: where I'm supposed to be. Now, if you'll stay in faith,

77
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 1: those promises won't be one second late. Maybe you're single

78
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 1: and you have a desire to get married. Well, know this,

79
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: the person that God has picked out for you to meet,

80
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 1: they're not going to be one second late. You're going

81
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: to meet them at the exact right time. It's already

82
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 1: been set. The creator of the universe has ordained it.

83
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: When is the set time, It's the right time. It's

84
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: when God knows that it's best for you. If you're

85
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: like me, you want everything right now. God, I want

86
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 1: it fast. God. I'm in a hurry. God, I don't

87
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: want to be left out. That's not always the best.

88
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's because we're not ready, we're not prepared, and

89
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 1: as we wait with the right attitude, we grow, we mature,

90
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 1: we develop. Or sometimes it's not us, it's the other person.

91
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 1: The one God has ordained for you is not ready.

92
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: God is still doing a work on them. If you

93
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 1: were to meet them right now, it wouldn't work out.

94
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 1: Trust God's timing. He knows what's best. When he gave

95
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 1: you the promise, he established the exact right time. And

96
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: when those lives come saying it's never gonna happen, you're

97
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: never gonna meet anybody, You're never gonna get well, You're

98
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:25,359
Speaker 1: never gonna have an exceedingly abundantly above and beyond decade. No,

99
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: don't believe the never lies. Our attitude should be. I

100
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,840
Speaker 1: may not see away, but I know God has a way.

101
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 1: He's the one that put the promise in me. He

102
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: gave me the dream, and I know he's already established

103
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 1: a set time to bring it to pass. It's already

104
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: on my calendar. It's already been set in my future.

105
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,280
Speaker 1: So I'm not gonna get discouraged. I'm not going to

106
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 1: give up. I'm going to wait for it earnestly in faith,

107
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 1: knowing that it is on its way. And it's not

108
00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 1: going to be a year late, a month late, a

109
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 1: week late, a day late, a minute late. It's not

110
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,279
Speaker 1: gonna be one second late. It's gonna happen at the

111
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: exact right time. You don't know. Your set time could

112
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: be tonight, Your set time could be tomorrow. You could

113
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 1: meet the person of your dreams this week. You could

114
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 1: see your health turn around this month. You could come

115
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,359
Speaker 1: totally out of debt this year. Many of you have

116
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:29,239
Speaker 1: been faithful, You've stood on those promises a year, five years,

117
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,040
Speaker 1: twenty years. You need to get ready. There are some

118
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 1: set times in your future where suddenly God is gonna

119
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,600
Speaker 1: thrust you to a new level. Suddenly you're gonna get

120
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,719
Speaker 1: the breaks you're praying about, Suddenly you meet the right people.

121
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: What happened, You hit one of your set times, You

122
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 1: came into your due season. But the truth is, in life,

123
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:53,479
Speaker 1: we all have to wait. It's through faith and patience

124
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 1: that we inherit the promises. The key is to learn

125
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 1: to wait the right way, not discouraged, upset, negative it's

126
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: never gonna happen. No, the right way to wait is

127
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 1: with expectancy. In other words, I know my set time

128
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: is coming. I'm not going to live worried and upset,

129
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: wondering why it hasn't happened yet. No, I know God

130
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 1: has ordained it. It's already in my future, and I

131
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: believe it could happen today. I could get a good

132
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 1: break this week, my child could come back home this month.

133
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 1: I know there are set times in my future. Well,

134
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 1: you said, Joe, what if I get my hopes up

135
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 1: like that each day and it doesn't happen, then I'll

136
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: go to bed another night disappointed. No, turn it around.

137
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: Your attitude should be Father. I want to thank you now.

138
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: I know I'm one day closer to see in that

139
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 1: set time come to pass. You remember when God promised

140
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 1: Abraham and Sarah that they were going to have a

141
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: child in the natural. They were much too old. In fact,

142
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,119
Speaker 1: when they heard it, they both kind of laughed and thought,

143
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: that's impossible. Can you imagine us having a bad God

144
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 1: must have heard what they were saying, because he said

145
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 1: in Genesis eighteen fourteen, is there anything too hard for me?

146
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:14,119
Speaker 1: At the appointed time? I will return and give Sarah

147
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 1: a son. Notice there was an appointed time for something

148
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 1: supernatural to happen. According to the laws of nature, Sarah

149
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 1: couldn't have a baby. She was nearly eighty years old.

150
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 1: She had already gone through the change of life. But friends,

151
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,440
Speaker 1: God is not limited by the laws of nature, or

152
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: the laws of medicine or the laws of science. It

153
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 1: may look impossible for you to ever get out of debt,

154
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,080
Speaker 1: or for you to ever leave a legacy of faith

155
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 1: and victory for your family. Maybe you come from generations

156
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 1: of lack, mediocrity, addictions. In the natural. It looks impossible,

157
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: But God is saying, is there anything too hard for me?

158
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: I've already appointed a time. I've already made a range

159
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 1: much to thrust you to a new level. I've already

160
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: lined up and exceedingly abundantly above and beyond decade the

161
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 1: moment the promise took root, God set that in your future.

162
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 1: It's up ahead of you right now. It may look

163
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 1: like you could never get well. All the medical reports

164
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 1: say impossible, hopeless, no way. But God is saying, I

165
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:27,199
Speaker 1: supersede those laws. I'm not limited by the laws of medicine.

166
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 1: I've already appointed a time to turn your health around.

167
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 1: I've already set the date for your breakthrough. Now you've

168
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:36,839
Speaker 1: got to get in agreement with God and get your

169
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 1: joy back, get your vision back. There is something great

170
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 1: in your future. You would not be alive unless God

171
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 1: had another victory ahead of you. The dreams He's placed

172
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: in your heart, the situations you're believing to turn around.

173
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,839
Speaker 1: God has already set the time for it to come

174
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: to pass. It's already on your calendar, already been written

175
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,199
Speaker 1: in your book. Now you've got to get up each

176
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 1: morning and say, Father, I want to thank you that

177
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 1: my set time is coming. I know the moment I

178
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 1: prayed you established it. I may not be able to

179
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:15,079
Speaker 1: see it, it may look impossible, but I'm not gonna

180
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: get discouraged. I'm gonna dig my heels in and keep

181
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 1: pressing forward, knowing that my appointed time is on its way.

182
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 1: It's interesting how God said I will return and give

183
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,840
Speaker 1: Sarah a son. And in a sense we know that

184
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 1: God never leaves us. But between the time we pray

185
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: and the time we see the answer, that's what's called

186
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 1: the trial of our faith. In other words, God will

187
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: step back and say, all right, let me see what

188
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 1: they're made of. Let me see how much they trust me.

189
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 1: Are they going to get discouraged and give up because

190
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,719
Speaker 1: it's taken a long time. Are they gonna start complaining

191
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: thinking it's not gonna happen. Or are they gonna be

192
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 1: like those fanatical people at Lakewood and believe that there's

193
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: nothing too hard for me, and just keep praising me

194
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: and keep thinking me, acting like it's gonna happen, talking

195
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 1: like it's gonna happen, thinking like it's gonna happen. Friends.

196
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 1: It's that attitude of faith that allows God to bring

197
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: the set times to pass. It says in Genesis twenty

198
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 1: one to two, Sarah conceived and bore a sun. Notice

199
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:26,720
Speaker 1: when it happened at the set time. When you understand

200
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: that God has already set the time, you won't be

201
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: frustrated because things don't happen on your timetable. You know

202
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 1: God has established the right time. But I see too

203
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 1: many people that give up on their dreams, and they

204
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: abort the promises God's placed in their heart because it's

205
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 1: not happening as fast as they would like, and they've

206
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,200
Speaker 1: gone through setbacks and things hadn't worked out. But if

207
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 1: you can just keep reminding yourself God has already set

208
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 1: the time and it's not gonna be one second late,

209
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 1: then that will give you the faith to keep pressing forward.

210
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 1: Some of you and standing on a promise for a

211
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 1: long time, you've been praying, believing, working hard, being your best.

212
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 1: Let me tell you you've passed the test. You've proven to

213
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,079
Speaker 1: God that you're faithful. And God is going to do

214
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 1: for you what he did for Sarah. He's going to

215
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 1: return and visit your house and bring those promises to pass.

216
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,559
Speaker 1: God is going to reward your faithfulness, your obedience, your

217
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 1: trust in Him. That's what happened to a young lady

218
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: I know. She worked part time as a receptionist at

219
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 1: this big film studio in California. Deep down, her dream

220
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 1: was to touch people all over the world through movies. That

221
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 1: was the promise God birthed in her spirit. She went

222
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 1: to college and study this God her degree. But in

223
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,959
Speaker 1: spite of her education, this was the only job she

224
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 1: could find, a temporary position, and she worked for three

225
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 1: years part time. Was only called in when one of

226
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: the regular employees couldn't be there, but she didn't get discouraged.

227
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 1: She understood this principle that her set time was coming.

228
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 1: She never complained, She didn't slack off because it was temporary.

229
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 1: Every time she was there, she gave it her best,

230
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: went out of her way to be kind and friendly,

231
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 1: did more than she had to do, and at one

232
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,680
Speaker 1: point the main receptionist went on maternity leave. That opened

233
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,680
Speaker 1: the door for her to be hired full time. Several

234
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 1: years later, the man in charge of the studio, the

235
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 1: CEO of the company, said, I really like that young lady.

236
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 1: I want her to be one of my assistants. That

237
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: led to promotion after promotion. Today, seven years later, that

238
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,559
Speaker 1: young girl that started off part time as a receptionist

239
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 1: is now the vice president of one of the largest,

240
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 1: most influential film studios in the world. She decides which

241
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 1: movies will be produced. What happened she came in to

242
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 1: her set time. Here's what I want you to see.

243
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,959
Speaker 1: She had plenty of opportunities along the way to get discouraged.

244
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,439
Speaker 1: She could have settled where she was and thought, all, great,

245
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: just my luck. I've got all this education and all

246
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 1: I can find is a temporary job. It's just not

247
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 1: meant to be friends. It's easy to abort dreams. But

248
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,680
Speaker 1: if you will stay in faith and just keep being

249
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 1: the best right where you are, like this young lady,

250
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 1: you will come in to your due season. The dream

251
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: God put in your heart is for an appointed time,

252
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 1: and the scripture says, though it's taken a long time,

253
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 1: wait for it earnestly. What does that mean? Stay passionate,

254
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 1: keep praying, keep believing, keep hoping, keep being your best.

255
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 1: Each day. When you do that, you're passing the test.

256
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 1: You're getting one day closer to seeing the promise come

257
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 1: to pass. I think about the apostle Paul. God put

258
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 1: the promise in his heart that he was going to

259
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: stand before Caesar. Paul believed it, and at that moment

260
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: God set a time for it to happen. But Paul

261
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 1: went through many adversities and appointments and set back. It

262
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 1: didn't look like it was going to happen. In fact,

263
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 1: one time Paul was on a boat out in the

264
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 1: ocean and this huge storm arose. For twenty one days,

265
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 1: the storm battered the boat back and forth. They thought

266
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 1: they were going to die. It got so bad the

267
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 1: captain had them throw all the cargo overboard to try

268
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: to keep the ship from sinking. Paul could have gotten depressed, thinking, well,

269
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 1: I thought God gave me the promise that I was

270
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: going to stand before Caesar. Doesn't look like it's going

271
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 1: to happen. No, Paul knew this truth. My set time

272
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 1: is coming. I can't die in this storm. God has

273
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 1: something else for me to do. He stayed in faith.

274
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 1: That boat eventually fell apart and they had to swim

275
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 1: to dry ground on this little island. Paul reached down

276
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: to pick up some wood for a fire, and a

277
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 1: poisonous snake bid him on the arm. The natives expected

278
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 1: him to swell up, get sick, and die. They had

279
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: seen it happen again and again. But Paul simply shook

280
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 1: the snake off and went about his business. His attitude

281
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 1: was no big deal. This snake can't stop my destiny.

282
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 1: This shipwreck can't defeat me. I've got an appointed time.

283
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: God is already ordained it now. I'm not gonna let

284
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 1: a few setbacks and bumps in the road caused me

285
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 1: to give up. My future is in God's hands, and

286
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: he has already set the time for me to stand

287
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 1: before Caesar. Sure enough. One day, Paul did just what

288
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 1: God said. He stood before Caesar. He came in to

289
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 1: his set time. Many of you have a dream in

290
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 1: your heart, a promise that you're standing on. But it

291
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 1: seems like everything has come against you. Disappointments, bad breaks, setbacks.

292
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: You could easily get discouraged, you could easily settle where

293
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 1: you are. You got to learn to do like Paul

294
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:53,320
Speaker 1: and just keep shaking it off. You go through a disappointment,

295
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 1: no big deal. God's still in control. Shake it off.

296
00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 1: Somebody lies about you. They don't control your destiny. God

297
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 1: does shake it off. You get a bad break, one

298
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 1: door closes, God's going to open up another door. Shake

299
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,920
Speaker 1: it off. The medical report doesn't look good, don't dwell

300
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 1: on it, night and day. Shake it off. You may

301
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,919
Speaker 1: get knocked down, but God has already set a time

302
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 1: for you to get back up again. I received a

303
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 1: letter this week from a gentleman that was diagnosed with

304
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 1: cancer of the kidney. He had one kidney removed and

305
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 1: they ran tests to see if it was in his

306
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: lymph nose to see if it had spread, and those

307
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 1: tests came back positive. The cancer had indeed spread. The

308
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 1: doctors gave him the grim news that he had less

309
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,640
Speaker 1: than two years to live. He was respectful, but he said, doctors,

310
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 1: I don't believe I'm finished just yet. I've got something

311
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,439
Speaker 1: else to do. They said, sir, you're in denial. You

312
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,639
Speaker 1: need to accept it and learn to deal with it.

313
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,879
Speaker 1: He went to another very well known hospital for a

314
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,680
Speaker 1: second opinion. He took all of his charts and records,

315
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 1: and the doctor studied it and said, yes, looks like

316
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,479
Speaker 1: they were right. Looks like the cancer has spread. He

317
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: asked the doctors to run some new test. A week

318
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 1: or so later, they came back in amazement and they said,

319
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: we've never seen this before. The old tests clearly show

320
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 1: that you have cancer, but these new tests show there's

321
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 1: no trace of cancer in your body. That was five

322
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 1: years ago. He is still as healthy as can be,

323
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:27,119
Speaker 1: still going strong. What happened He came in to his

324
00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 1: set time. God visited his house and did what medical

325
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 1: science could not do. Let me tell you, if it's

326
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 1: not your time to go, you're not gonna go. God

327
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 1: has the final say down deep in here like that, man,

328
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,360
Speaker 1: you will fill the promise. I can't die yet. I've

329
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 1: got something else to do. It may not look good

330
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 1: like Paul, the snake may be poisonous, but I'm gonna

331
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 1: shake it off. I know a set time is coming.

332
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:55,879
Speaker 1: I know the God of the breakthrough is about to

333
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: visit my house. Some of you need to get ready.

334
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 1: Your set time is closer than you think. You're about

335
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,639
Speaker 1: to see God open up the doors you've been praying about.

336
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 1: You're about to meet the person that you've been dreaming about.

337
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 1: God is about to thrust you to a new level.

338
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:16,439
Speaker 1: Like Sarah, God is gonna return and visit your house.

339
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:21,159
Speaker 1: Here's why. It's because you've been faithful. You pass the test.

340
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,440
Speaker 1: You've done the right thing when the wrong thing was happening.

341
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: Now your set time is coming. Friends, this is not

342
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 1: the time to get down and discouraged. This is not

343
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,440
Speaker 1: the time to let your own thoughts talk you out

344
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 1: of it. Start thinking it's never gonna happen. I'm getting

345
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 1: too old. I'm never gonna accomplish my dreams now. The

346
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: scripture says, don't get tired of doing what's right, for

347
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 1: in due season, you will read. If you just don't

348
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 1: give up, you gotta keep reminding yourself. My due season

349
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: is on his way. God has already established it. He's

350
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 1: already set the time in my future. I may not

351
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,479
Speaker 1: be able to see it, may look impossible, but I

352
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 1: know my future is in God's hands. And if God

353
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,919
Speaker 1: said it, he will do it. What he promised he

354
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 1: will bring to past. I heard TD Jakes telling about

355
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: a major turning point in his life. Most of you

356
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 1: know Bishop Jakes. He's a great minister and a good

357
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 1: friend of ours. And he told how years ago he

358
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,719
Speaker 1: had a dream to touch people all over the world.

359
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,439
Speaker 1: He knew that God was going to use him in

360
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 1: a great way, but at that time, he was pastoring

361
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 1: a small church in West Virginia. He prayed and believed

362
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 1: and asked God to open up bigger doors, but nothing

363
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,960
Speaker 1: seemed to be happening. For years, he would go across

364
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 1: the US, speaking to a couple hundred people here and there,

365
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 1: but nothing like he had in his heart. And this

366
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,160
Speaker 1: one on year after year, and he didn't see any

367
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 1: signs of growth. But he didn't start complaining, He didn't

368
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:57,160
Speaker 1: get discouraged. He just kept being his best right where

369
00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 1: he was, doing what God called him to do. One day,

370
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 1: he went and spoke at a church conference in Tulsa.

371
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 1: The pastor of that church had a television program. After

372
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 1: the conference, the pastor decided to edit down the highlights

373
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,159
Speaker 1: from the three or four conference speakers, just maybe four

374
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,679
Speaker 1: or five minutes each one, and put them on his

375
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 1: weekly television program. When the broadcast aired, it just so

376
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 1: happened that Paul Crouch, the founder of the Trinity Broadcasting Network,

377
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 1: was flipping through the channels and he came across this

378
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 1: man that he had never seen, Bishop Jakes. He was

379
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 1: so impressed, so stirred by it. Paul Krouch told his staff,

380
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 1: I don't know who that man was, but I want

381
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 1: you to find him and tell him. I want him

382
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 1: to have his own program on our network. That one moment,

383
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 1: that one good break, was the turning point in Bishop

384
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 1: Jake's ministry. He went from ministering to a couple hundred

385
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 1: people to ministering to millions all over the world. He

386
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 1: came in to his set time, But I think about

387
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: all the events that had to get perfectly lined up

388
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,679
Speaker 1: in order for that to happen. Bishop Jakes had to

389
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 1: be speaking at the right church. The pastor had to

390
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 1: have a television program, Paul Crouch had to be flipping

391
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:20,120
Speaker 1: through the channels at the exact right time. If he'd

392
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: have been five minutes later if he had gone to

393
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 1: make a sandwich, if he'd gone to take a telephone call,

394
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 1: it would not have happened. What am I saying, God

395
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,399
Speaker 1: is working behind the scenes in our lives, whether we

396
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 1: can see anything happening or not. That was not a

397
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 1: lucky break. That was not just a coincidence. That was

398
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 1: Almighty God, the creator of the universe, getting everything lined

399
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 1: up and at the right moment, at the appointed time.

400
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,639
Speaker 1: It all came together in the same way God is

401
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:56,119
Speaker 1: getting everything lined up for you. You may not see it.

402
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,960
Speaker 1: Everything may be the same, just like it's been the

403
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 1: last ten years, but all the sudden, in a split second,

404
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,639
Speaker 1: is going to come together. God is going to visit

405
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: your house and bring a set time across your path.

406
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,159
Speaker 1: And when it's your due season, no person can stop it.

407
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 1: When it's your appointed time, all the forces of darkness

408
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,400
Speaker 1: cannot keep it from happening. Suddenly your business will take off,

409
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 1: Suddenly you'll get the break you need, Suddenly your health

410
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 1: will turn around. Some of you. Right now you're about

411
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:29,880
Speaker 1: to walk in to one of your appointed times. Keep praying,

412
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 1: keep believing, keep being your very best. Your set time

413
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,159
Speaker 1: is closer than you think. I was reading about a

414
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 1: young man that set out to swim across the English Channel.

415
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: This was many years ago. It had never been done before.

416
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 1: The channel is twenty three miles long. It takes between

417
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:52,119
Speaker 1: twelve and fourteen hours to swim. It's extremely dangerous. The

418
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:56,159
Speaker 1: water temperature is very cold, the current is strong. Not

419
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 1: only that, there are sharks and jellyfish other things to

420
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 1: deal with. Several people had attempted this before. They had

421
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,680
Speaker 1: not only not been successful, but they had lost their

422
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 1: lives in trying. This young man started out. He was

423
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:13,439
Speaker 1: in great shape, so determined. He swam an hour and

424
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 1: two hours, three hours, four hours, five hours, and he

425
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 1: began to get tired. He was in great pain, but

426
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,919
Speaker 1: he wanted it so badly he just kept on keeping on.

427
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 1: Late in the day, an unusually thick fog rolled in

428
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: to where he could barely see in front of him.

429
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:33,159
Speaker 1: He swam hour after hour in this heavy fog. He

430
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 1: lost sight of the other side, and he began to

431
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 1: slowly get discouraged. Finally, he couldn't take it any longer.

432
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 1: He was so cold, and he didn't even know where

433
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 1: he was, so he decided to quit, and he gave up.

434
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,159
Speaker 1: So a little boat traveling beside him. He crawled into it,

435
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 1: and as they rowed to the other side, much to

436
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:57,320
Speaker 1: his amazement, he discovered he was less than fifty yards

437
00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 1: from the shore, less than fifty words from making history.

438
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 1: Had he known he was so close, he would have

439
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 1: never given up so soon. Like this, young man, many

440
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,639
Speaker 1: of you are much closer than you think. Right around

441
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,960
Speaker 1: the corner, you're gonna see the situation turn around. You're

442
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: gonna get the breaks that you've been praying about. You're

443
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,920
Speaker 1: gonna see your health begin to improve. The most difficult

444
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 1: time is always right before the victory. And things may

445
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 1: be a little foggy in your life today. You look

446
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 1: out and you don't see anything good in your future

447
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 1: doesn't look like it's ever gonna work out. You're tired,

448
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,280
Speaker 1: You've done your best, but you're ready to just call

449
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 1: it quits. But let me challenge you. Don't give up

450
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,919
Speaker 1: fifty yards before your destiny. Your appointed time is coming.

451
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 1: It's right up ahead of you.

452
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 2: Now.

453
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 1: You gotta dig your heels in, get your second wind,

454
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 1: and say I've come too far to stop now. God

455
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,199
Speaker 1: is in complete control. He's brought me through in the

456
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 1: past and I know he'll bring me through again. I'm

457
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: gonna keep pressing full word, knowing that my due season

458
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 1: is on his way. If you do that, God promises

459
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: it won't be one second late. Friends, we all have

460
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 1: to wait. But let's wait the right way with expectancy.

461
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 1: Let's wait knowing that the appointed time has already been established.

462

463
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,159
Speaker 1: a long time. You need to get ready. God is

464
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 1: about to do for you what he did for Sarah.

00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 1: He's gonna show up in your life in amazing ways.

Speaker 1: Let me just declare this over you. In your future,

468

469
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 1: set time of supernatural opportunities, a set time where you

470
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:44,200
Speaker 1: meet the right people, a set time where your health

471
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 1: is restored, a set time where you accomplish your goals,

472
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 1: a set time where you fulfill every God given dream.

473
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,119
Speaker 1: I believe it. I declare it over each one of

474
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 1: you in the name of Jesus. And if you receive it,

475
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 1: can you say amen? And amen? Amen? Well, we never

476
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 1: like to close our broadcast without giving you an opportunity

477
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 1: to make Jesus, the Lord of your life. Would you

478
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:12,480
Speaker 1: pray with me? Just say, Lord Jesus, I'll repent of

479
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:17,159
Speaker 1: my sins. Come into my heart. I make you my

480
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 1: Lord and savior. Friends, if you prayed that simple prayer,

481
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 1: we believe you got born again. Get in a good

482
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,399
Speaker 1: Bible based church, Keep God first place. He's going to

483
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:28,440
Speaker 1: do amazing things in your life.

484
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:33,679
Speaker 2: God has put a specific dream in your heart. Maybe

485
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:37,399
Speaker 2: it's a dream for a better career, a blessing that

486
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 2: enables you to bless others, to be in a healthy,

487
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:45,640
Speaker 2: loving relationship, to launch your own business or ministry endeavor.

488
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 2: We all have dreams, but sometimes set backs and opposition

489
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,639
Speaker 2: can rob us of our dreams. So how do you

490
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,880
Speaker 2: make your dreams a reality?

491
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 1: One way you know it's a God given dream is

492
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: you can't accomplish it on your own. We never thought

493
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 1: we'd be having church in a former basketball arena, But

494
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,439
Speaker 1: this is what can happen when you take the limits

495
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 1: off of God.

496
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 3: When you believe what God put in your heart, that's

497
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 3: when He steps in and makes ways where you never

498
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:13,200
Speaker 3: saw ways.
