Thanks for downloading our podcast. 46 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 5: We enjoy spending this time with you. I know you're 47 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 5: going to leave encouraged and inspired. 48 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 6: Make sure you subscribe to get new messages every week, 49 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 6: and follow us on social media to stay connected. 50 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 5: We appreciate your support. It helps keep the ministry going. 51 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 5: Enjoy the message, Victoria, and I want you to know 52 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 5: that we're praying for you and that God has you 53 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 5: in the palm of his hand. None of this is 54 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 5: a surprise to him. Sometimes when we watch the news, 55 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 5: it's easy to live in fear and worried, wondering what's 56 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 5: going to go on. But it's important to tune that 57 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 5: out and tune into your faith. You can't take in 58 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 5: negative all day and live a positive life. So I 59 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 5: hope that you'll choose to live out of a place 60 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 5: of faith and trust, knowing that God's guiding you, guarding you, 61 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,359 Speaker 5: protecting you. He's going to get you to where you're 62 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 5: supposed to be. But great to have you tuned in today. 63 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 6: You know, more than ever we have to stay connected 64 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,959 Speaker 6: to our faith, and we can do that by staying 65 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 6: connected to each other. Continue to watch this ministry and, 66 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 6: like Juels said, to feed your faith so that we 67 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,959 Speaker 6: can stand strong in these difficult and chop trying times. 68 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 6: You know, when we're strong, we can be strong for 69 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 6: other people. And I know that God's got you in 70 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 6: the palm of his hand, that we're going to make 71 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 6: it through together. So let's stay connected. 72 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 5: A great way to stay connected is through our social media, 73 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 5: our podcast, our YouTube channel, lots. 74 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 4: Of ways we can inspire you during the week. But 75 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 4: I hope you enjoyed this message today. 76 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,239 Speaker 5: I want to talk to you today about God has 77 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 5: the final say. We all face situations that look permanent, 78 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 5: like they're never going to work out. It's easy to 79 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 5: get discourage and except that it wasn't meant to be. 80 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 4: But it's not over until God says it's over. 81 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 5: The medical report may not look good, but that sickness 82 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 5: doesn't have the last word. 83 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 4: God has the final say. 84 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 5: You may have struggled with an addiction for years, but 85 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 5: the addiction doesn't have the final say. People may be 86 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 5: against you. You have off the position, but people don't 87 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 5: have the final say. 88 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 4: No disrespect. 89 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 5: But the doctor, the banker, the lawyer, the expert, the judge, 90 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 5: they may be good people, but they're not on the throne. 91 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 4: God is on the throne. 92 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 5: Him being for you is more than the world being 93 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 5: against you. God won't let you get in a problem 94 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 5: that he can't get you out of He wouldn't have 95 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 5: let the three Hebrew teenagers be thrown into a furnace 96 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 5: if he didn't know the fire wasn't going to harm them. 97 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 4: King Nebukinezzar thought he was in control. 98 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 5: He thought he had the final say, that the fire 99 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 5: would finish them off. That's what always happened. But this 100 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 5: time he wasn't dealing with ordinary people. He was dealing 101 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 5: with children of the Most High God. They came out without. 102 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 4: The smell of smoke. 103 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 5: There's something about you that makes you unstoppable. 104 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 4: You have an advantage. 105 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 5: God not only breathed life into you, but he put 106 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 5: a hedge of. 107 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 4: Protection around you. 108 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 5: Nothing can touch you without his permission. You're not at 109 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 5: the mercy of bad breaks, sicknesses, accidents, people against you. 110 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 4: None of that can stop your destiny. 111 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 5: Well, if I can get this supervisor to like me, 112 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 5: maybe i'll get the promotion. Now. You don't have to 113 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,599 Speaker 5: play up to people when you go to work, be 114 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 5: your best, let your talent shine. Then when it's time 115 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 5: for you to be promoted, all the forces of. 116 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 4: Darkness cannot hold you back. 117 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 5: Well, my boss doesn't like me. Your boss doesn't have 118 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 5: the final say. They are a pawn in the hands 119 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,119 Speaker 5: of God. You are not doing life by yourself. God 120 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 5: is behind the scenes, pulling strings orchestrating things in your favor. 121 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,280 Speaker 5: At the right time, God will either cause that person 122 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 5: to like you or move them out of the way. 123 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,919 Speaker 5: But they cannot stop your purpose. You know that God 124 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 5: has the final say. You don't live frustrated trying to 125 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 5: manipulate people, worried about your children. You stay in peace, 126 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 5: knowing that nothing can stop God's plan. When the prophet 127 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 5: Samuel came to Jesse's house to choose one of his 128 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 5: sons as the next king of Israel, Jesse lined up 129 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 5: seven of his sons. 130 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 4: Said all right, Samuel, take your pick. 131 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 5: He didn't bother to bring his youngest son, David in 132 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 5: from the shepherd's fields. 133 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 4: He had already ruled him out. 134 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 5: Thought he's too young, too small, not talented. David's not 135 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 5: king material. If people had the final say. 136 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 4: This would be a problem. 137 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 5: If people determined our destiny, we would have never heard 138 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 5: of David. 139 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:48,919 Speaker 4: When people leave. 140 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 5: You out, it may hurt, but that doesn't stop your purpose. 141 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 5: Samuel said Jesse, I don't see a king in these sons. 142 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 5: Do you have any other sons? This shows us that 143 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 5: God has for. 144 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 4: You won't go to anyone else. 145 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 5: People may try to manipulate things, discredit you, leave you out. 146 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 4: Don't worry. God is on the throne. He's pulling the strings. 147 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 5: He knew who wasn't going to like you, who was 148 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 5: going to try to push you down. You don't have 149 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 5: to try to get even stay on the high road, 150 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 5: and what has your name on it will come to you. 151 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 5: Jesse sent word for David to come into the house. 152 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 5: When Samuel saw him first thing, he said, there's the 153 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 5: next king of Israel. 154 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 4: God doesn't choose the way we choose. We look on 155 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 4: the outside, the size. 156 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 5: The talent, the personality. God looks at the heart. People 157 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 5: may have counted you out, but God has already counted 158 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 5: you in. He overrides what people say, He overrides the injustice. Well, Joel, 159 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 5: I'm in an unfair situation, but nothing's changing. 160 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 4: It's not over yet. 161 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 5: That's not how your story ends. Your time is coming. 162 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 5: Like with David, You're going to be called into the house. 163 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 5: God has not forgotten about you. What He's promised is 164 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 5: still on the way. Bad breaks didn't stop it, people 165 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 5: didn't cancel it, delays doesn't mean it's not going to happen. 166 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 5: What God started, he's going to finish. He has the 167 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 5: final say. Now, don't go around talking about how it's 168 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 5: not going to happen, and this illness is going to 169 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 5: be the end of me and I'll never accomplish my dreams. 170 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 4: You know what you're doing. 171 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 5: You're putting your circumstances on the throne. You're saying they 172 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,839 Speaker 5: have the final say, they control my destiny. You need 173 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 5: to take the problem off the throne and put God 174 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 5: back on the throne. God is sovereign over your circumstances. 175 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 5: That means God reigns over everything in your life, not 176 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 5: just over the universe. He rains over the sickness. He 177 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 5: rains over your chill, over your finances. One Peter three 178 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 5: says Jesus has the last word on everything and everyone, 179 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 5: from angels to armies. He's standing right alongside God, and 180 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:15,560 Speaker 5: what he says goes. 181 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 4: Now. 182 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 5: You may be dealing with the sickness. The medical report 183 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 5: says you're not going to make it. That's one word. 184 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 5: But God has the last word, the sovereign God, the 185 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 5: God who reigns, says, I am restoring health back unto 186 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:35,439 Speaker 5: you now keep God on the throne. When thoughts say 187 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 5: you you'll never get well, just say no, thanks. I 188 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 5: know a secret. My God has the last saying sickness. 189 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 5: You may have a say in justice, you may have 190 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 5: a say, but I have bad news. What you say 191 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 5: is subject to the God who created me. What you 192 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:57,119 Speaker 5: say is overruled by the most time. He has the 193 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:02,559 Speaker 5: final say on everyone and every thing. God promised Abraham 194 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 5: and Sarah that they were going to have a baby, 195 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 5: but they were both way too old. Abraham was in 196 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 5: his eighties, Sarah had gone through the change of life. 197 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 5: There was no way in the natural for them to 198 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 5: have a child. And sometimes God will put things in 199 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 5: our heart that don't make sense to our mind. It's 200 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 5: easy to dismiss it and think, well, that'll never happen. 201 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 5: The scripture says Abraham considered not the weakness of his 202 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 5: own body nor the deadness of Sarah's womb. He didn't 203 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 5: deny that Sarah's womb was dead. He didn't ignore the facts. 204 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 4: He just chose not to dwell on them. 205 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 5: He didn't go around talking about how impossible it was. 206 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 5: If you're going to stay in faith, you have to 207 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 5: do like Abraham and not consider what looks dead, don't 208 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 5: dwell on what seems impossible. Are you spending more time 209 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 5: thinking about the problem or the promises? Are you talking 210 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 5: more about how big the challenge is or about how. 211 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 4: Big your God is. When we received word. 212 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 5: That the Rockets basketball team was moving out of this building, 213 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 5: the former Compact Center, and it was going to be 214 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 5: for sale, something came alive on the inside. I knew 215 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 5: God put that promise in my heart. But like Abraham, 216 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 5: all the odds were against us. We didn't have the finances, 217 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 5: didn't have the experience. 218 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 4: Necessarily. 219 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 5: The people that wanted the building were a huge real 220 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 5: estate company, one of the largest taxpayers in Texas. But 221 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 5: instead of focusing on how impossible it was, Victoria and 222 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,559 Speaker 5: I would come up at night when the Rockets weren't playing, 223 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 5: nobody was around. We would walk around the outside of 224 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 5: the building and thank God that it was ours and 225 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 5: thank Him that he was fighting our battles, thank him 226 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 5: that he was making a way or we didn't see. 227 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 5: Away of considering the circumstances, we chose to consider the 228 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 5: greatness of our God. I've learned the bigger you make God, 229 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:12,839 Speaker 5: the smaller problems become the more faith rises in your heart. 230 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 5: As we walked around the building, we were saying, Lord, 231 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 5: we know you can open doors that no men can shut. 232 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 5: We know you can take us where we can't go 233 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 5: on our own. When you get in agreement with God, 234 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 5: he will make things happen that you could have never 235 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 5: made happen. If Sarah would have gone for a checkup, 236 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 5: the doctor would have said, I'm sorry, ma'am, you're too old. 237 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 5: You waited too late. Plus your husband is an old man. 238 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 5: Even if your womb was somehow fertile, he doesn't have 239 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 5: the seed. No doctor would have given them a chance. 240 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 5: Medically speaking, it was impossible. But don't let people talk 241 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 5: you out of what God put in your heart. Don't 242 00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 5: let the experts convince you that it's not going to happen. Remember, 243 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:04,439 Speaker 5: experts built the Titanic in its sank amateur has. 244 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 4: Built the Arc and it floated. 245 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 5: No disrespect, But sometimes the experts can be wrong. 246 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 4: They don't know what God put in you. 247 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:20,560 Speaker 5: They can't see your seeds of greatness on your own. 248 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 5: What they're saying about you may be true, but you're 249 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 5: not on your own. You have the most powerful force 250 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 5: in the universe, breathing in your direction. He has the 251 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 5: final say over your dreams. People may have discouraged you, 252 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,439 Speaker 5: but what he promised is on the way. He has 253 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 5: the final say over your health. May not have happened yet, 254 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 5: but healing is coming. He has the final say over 255 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 5: your children. That child that's off course, God knows how 256 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 5: to get their attention. 257 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 4: He says, as for you and your house, you will 258 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:53,679 Speaker 4: serve the Lord. 259 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 5: When Abraham was one hundred years old, Sarah was eighty. 260 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 5: This was twenty years to the promise. They came into 261 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 5: a final word. Sarah gave birth to a son. God 262 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 5: overrode the. 263 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 4: Laws of nature. He overrode what the expert said. He 264 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 4: even overrode mistakes that they had made. 265 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,959 Speaker 5: If Abraham were here today, he would tell you. Don't 266 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 5: let circumstances talk. 267 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 4: You out of what God put in you. 268 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 5: It may look dead, seem impossible. The experts say, no way, 269 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 5: But I can tell you first hand. 270 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 4: God has the final say. 271 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 5: Think about Joseph. His brothers had a say. They were 272 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 5: jealous of. 273 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 4: Him, betrayed him, sold him into slavery. 274 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 5: Potiphar's wife, the men Joseph worked for, she had a say. 275 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 4: She lied about him. Joseph was put in prison. 276 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 5: He had all these negative voices, negative circumstances in Joseph's life. 277 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 5: He could have lived bitter, but he understood this principle. 278 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 5: After all the bad breaks, he was suddenly brought out 279 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 5: of print and made the Prime Minister of Egypt second 280 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:07,240 Speaker 5: in command. What am I saying? When God has the 281 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 5: final say, it will make up for all the injustice, 282 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 5: all the delays. You are not falling behind, You're not 283 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 5: losing ground. One touch of God's favor will put you 284 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 5: fifty years down the road, not in age, but in influence, 285 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 5: in position, in opportunity. I believe, like Joseph, You're about 286 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 5: to see God step in and override. 287 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 4: What's been hindering you. 288 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 5: You're about to come into a final word in your health, 289 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 5: in your relationships, in your finances. That struggle may seem permanent, 290 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 5: like you'll never get ahead. God is about to override 291 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 5: the lack, the limitations, the people that have held you back, 292 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:57,359 Speaker 5: and release you into new levels of influence, increase, abundance. 293 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 5: The final word is you will lend, not borrow. You 294 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 5: are above and not beneath. Or maybe you were raised 295 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 5: in dysfunction, depression, addictions. 296 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 4: The final word is coming. 297 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 5: God is about to break those yokes that have held 298 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 5: you back so you can step up to who you 299 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 5: were created to be. The final word is freedom, wholeness, abundance, 300 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 5: and victory. In the Scripture, two sisters Mary and Martha 301 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:32,479 Speaker 5: and their brother Lazarus were close friends with Jesus. Lazarus 302 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 5: became very sick. Jesus was in another city, so Martha 303 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 5: sent word for Jesus to come pray for their brother. 304 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 5: They had seen Jesus heal people, open the eyes of 305 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 5: the blind, turn water into wine. 306 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 4: They knew he could do miracles. 307 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 5: Jesus got the word, but he stayed in that city 308 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 5: for a day, two days, three days. 309 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 4: Then their worst nightmare came true. 310 00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:03,120 Speaker 5: Lazarus died. They were devastating. Four days later, Jesus showed up. 311 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,720 Speaker 5: Has it ever felt like God came too late? 312 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 4: You prayed, you believed, you asked, but the problem didn't 313 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 4: turn around. 314 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 5: Martha said, Jesus, if you would have been here, if 315 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 5: you'd have just come when we asked, my brother wouldn't 316 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 5: have died. She could have turned away, lived bitter, angry, 317 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 5: that would be the end of the story. But she 318 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 5: went on to say, Lord, even now I know whatever you. 319 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 4: Ask, God will do it for you. 320 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 5: She was saying, Yes, it looks bad, it seems impossible, 321 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 5: but I know you have the final say. Jesus said 322 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 5: to them, take me to where you buried Lazarus. 323 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 4: Take me to the tomb. He was saying, take me 324 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,320 Speaker 4: to the place where you quit believing. 325 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 5: Take me to where you decided you're not going to 326 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 5: get well. You'll never meet the right person unless you 327 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 5: go back to that place and stir your up. 328 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 4: It will limit what God can do. They went to 329 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,720 Speaker 4: the tomb. Jesus told them to roll away the stone. 330 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 5: Martha said, Lord, he's been dead for four days. He's 331 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 5: going to stink. 332 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,400 Speaker 4: The stone represents what you've given up on. 333 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 5: You think it's been too long, too late, it's never 334 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 5: going to happen. So you put the stone on the promise, 335 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 5: the stone on the dream. 336 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 4: You have to do your part and roll away the stone. 337 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:31,120 Speaker 5: You have to start believing again, get your passion back. 338 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 5: They removed the stone, but Jesus didn't go in the 339 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:39,359 Speaker 5: tomb and lay hands on Lazarus like he did the 340 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 5: blind man and some other people that he healed. This 341 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 5: time he spoke, said, Lazarus, come forth, instantly Lazarus woke up. 342 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 4: He came out of the tomb on a word from 343 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 4: the Lord. 344 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 5: Now Jesus may not be here in person today, but 345 00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,439 Speaker 5: we have what Lazarus had. You can come out on 346 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:01,719 Speaker 5: a word from God. 347 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 4: God says you will live and not die. Let that 348 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 4: take root. You can come out on that word. 349 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 5: God says, whatever you touch will prosper and succeed. 350 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 4: There's a word you can come out on. 351 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 5: Or whom the sun sets free is free. Indeed, there's 352 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 5: a word that breaks bondages. What God says in the 353 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 5: scripture is the final word. It's significant that Jesus waited 354 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 5: four days to pray for Lazarus. He could have healed 355 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 5: him the first day he knew he was sick, or 356 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 5: at least the second day, and not made them go 357 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 5: through so much. But there's always a reason for a delay. 358 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 5: We may not understand it, but God knows what he's doing. 359 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 5: And while you're waiting for a situation to turn around, 360 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 5: waiting for your health to improve, waiting for your child 361 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,439 Speaker 5: to get on the right track, that's a critical time 362 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:59,640 Speaker 5: you have to pass the test of waiting. If Martha 363 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 5: would stayed negative, bitter, complaining, she could have stopped the miracle. 364 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 4: Will you stay in faith when heaven is silent? 365 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 5: Will you wait with a good attitude and keep thanking 366 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 5: God that he has the final say. 367 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 4: When you don't see. 368 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,719 Speaker 5: Anything improving, how you wait will determine whether or not 369 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:24,679 Speaker 5: the situation changes. And back in those days, the Sadducees, 370 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 5: these were the people that were very against Jesus. They 371 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 5: believed that the spirit left the body three days after. 372 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:33,159 Speaker 4: The person died. 373 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 5: It wasn't a coincidence that Jesus waited till the fourth day. 374 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 5: He did it so that when he raised Lazarus there 375 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 5: wouldn't be any doubt about it. And sometimes God will 376 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 5: wait on purpose, so you not only. 377 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 4: Know it's his favor, but so all of. 378 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 5: Your critics, your neighbors, your relatives, your coworkers, they won't 379 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 5: be able to deny the goodness of God in your life. 380 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:00,919 Speaker 4: Talked to this lady. 381 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 5: Her son was diagnosed with muscular dystrophy when he was 382 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 5: six years old, and he got to the point where 383 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,679 Speaker 5: he couldn't walk when he was twelve. He had to 384 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 5: have surgery on his feet and heels. It was a 385 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 5: routine procedure, but something went wrong. He ended up in 386 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 5: ICU on a ventilator, couldn't breathe on his own. His 387 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 5: other organs started to shut down, his heart, his livers, kidneys. 388 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:27,440 Speaker 4: He had to go on dialysis. 389 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:31,439 Speaker 5: The doctors told this mother that they didn't think he 390 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 5: was going to make it. 391 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 4: She kept praying and. 392 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 5: Believing, but everything went downhill got so bad they needed 393 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 5: to put him on a machine to bypass his heart 394 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 5: and lungs. 395 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:44,880 Speaker 4: Basically, he would. 396 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 5: Be on life support, just waiting to pass. They went 397 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 5: to get the paperwork for the mother to sign to 398 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 5: give them permission. While she was waiting, the doctors came 399 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 5: running in. They said, hang on, you don't need to sign. 400 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 5: There's been a sudden change. They couldn't explain it, but 401 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 5: his heart started working, his blood pressure stabilized, his lungs 402 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:11,880 Speaker 5: begin to function. They couldn't understand how one moment he 403 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 5: was dying and the next moment he was coming back 404 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 5: to life. Friends, God has the final say. If it's 405 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 5: not your time to. 406 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:22,440 Speaker 4: Go, you're not going to go. 407 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 5: This sculpture says the number of your days God will fulfill. 408 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,439 Speaker 4: You don't have to fulfill it. God's going to fulfill it. 409 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 5: Nothing can snatch you out of his hands. Cancer can't 410 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 5: take one day that God has planned for you. That 411 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 5: sickness cannot take. 412 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 4: You before your time. Well, Joe, my. 413 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 5: Loved one didn't make it. Then their time was up. 414 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 5: They fulfilled the days that God planned for them. They 415 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 5: didn't show up in heaven unannounced. They didn't get there 416 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 5: and God say, wow, I didn't know you were coming. 417 00:22:57,680 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 5: God was the one beckoning them to come. 418 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,439 Speaker 4: He was the one receiving them with open arms. 419 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 5: We may not always understand it or like it, but 420 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 5: you can rest assured. 421 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,880 Speaker 4: God has the final say. 422 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,200 Speaker 5: He planned all of your days before you were born, 423 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 5: and He's promised to fulfill the number of your days. 424 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 5: This young man totally recovered. It's no longer on dialysis. 425 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 5: His heart is fine, his lungs are fine. He's fulfilling 426 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 5: his purpose. But you may be in a situation like 427 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 5: the mother. Doesn't seem like it'll ever turn around. Dream 428 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 5: that looks impossible, an addiction that seems permanent. I believe 429 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 5: you're going to hear what she heard. There's been a 430 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 5: sudden change. Something has happened that we can't explain. You 431 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 5: thought you'd reach your limits. Suddenly you'll promote it. The 432 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 5: company wants you to run the department. You thought you'd 433 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 5: always struggle with the illness, the addiction. Get ready for 434 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 5: a sudden change, forces of darkness or being broken. Any 435 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 5: area where you're not living in victory is not permanent. 436 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 4: It's temporary. God has the final say. 437 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 5: My brother in law, Don graduated from Texas A and 438 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 5: M University. 439 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,880 Speaker 4: He's a huge Aggie football fan. 440 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 5: Last year he was watching a big game on television 441 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 5: with one of their main rivals. The score was going 442 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 5: back and forth. Came down to the final possession. The 443 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 5: Aggis had the ball few seconds left to go. They 444 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 5: needed to score in order to tie the game, but 445 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 5: the Aggie quarterback through an interception. The other team got 446 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 5: the ball. Looked like the game was over. They poured 447 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 5: gatorade on the coach. The team members came on the 448 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 5: field celebrating. The opposing fans were going wild. Don was 449 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 5: so frustrated he not only turned the television off, he 450 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 5: deleted the recording from his DVR. 451 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,879 Speaker 4: He didn't even want that game in his files. 452 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 5: Half an hour later, a friend texted him saying, Wow, 453 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 5: this game is unbelievable. He thought the friend had recorded 454 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,239 Speaker 5: it and was watching it late he checked Twitter and 455 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,960 Speaker 5: saw the other comments. Come to find out, before the 456 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 5: Aggie quarterback through the interception, his knee touched the ground, 457 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,959 Speaker 5: so the play was dead. The referees reviewed it and 458 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 5: gave the ball back to the Aggies. They went on 459 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 5: to score and tie the game. The game went into overtime. 460 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 5: First overtime still tied, second, tied, third, fourth. In the 461 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 5: seventh overtime, the Aggies won the game. It was one 462 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 5: of the greatest games in college football history. But sometimes 463 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 5: we do like Dawn. We turned the game off too soon. 464 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 5: We think we'll never get well, we'll ever meet the 465 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 5: right person. Whenever accomplished a dream we tried it didn't 466 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 5: work out. Feels like the opposing team is. They're celebrating. 467 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,439 Speaker 5: They poured gatorade on the coach. Can I tell you 468 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,640 Speaker 5: it's not over until God says it's over. 469 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 4: You better go back and look again. 470 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:16,159 Speaker 5: Your story doesn't end to defeat, It ends in victory. 471 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 5: As long as you're breathing, the game is still going. Yes, 472 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 5: there will be times it looks like it's too late. 473 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 5: It's impossible. 474 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 4: God has ways you've never thought of. Get your passion back, 475 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:32,919 Speaker 4: start believing again. The game is still on. This is 476 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 4: what happened two thousand years ago. 477 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 5: Satan and all the forces of darkness were celebrating. They 478 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 5: already shot the confetti, poured the gatorade, and started their 479 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 5: victory party. They finally defeated Jesus nailed him to a cross. 480 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 4: What they didn't realize was. 481 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 5: Jesus prophesied not only his death, but his resurrection. They 482 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,400 Speaker 5: got the first part of the information, but they didn't 483 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:04,719 Speaker 5: get the final word. Jesus said, destroy this temple, and 484 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:08,880 Speaker 5: in three days God will raise it up. Jesus asked 485 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 5: to borrow Joseph's tune. He was saying, I don't need 486 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,479 Speaker 5: to buy it. I'm only going to be there three days. 487 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:21,360 Speaker 5: Satan had selective hearing. While they were partying having their celebration, 488 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 5: Jesus came walking in, took away the keys. 489 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 4: Of death, and Hell said, I am he that lives. 490 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 4: I was dead, but I'm alive forevermore. 491 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:39,439 Speaker 5: Now the enemy may be celebrating over you, thinking that 492 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:41,120 Speaker 5: you're done, You've seen. 493 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 4: Your best days. 494 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 5: You'll always be lonely, struggling, addicted, mediocre. You need to 495 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,879 Speaker 5: let him know you didn't hear the last word. I 496 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:53,119 Speaker 5: may be down, but I will arise. I may be 497 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 5: facing this illness, but healing is coming. This set back 498 00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:00,640 Speaker 5: in my finances and not permanent abundance is in my future. 499 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 5: The final word says, your latter days will be better 500 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 5: than your former days. 501 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:09,159 Speaker 4: Now get in agreement with God. 502 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 5: Go back to those places where you quit believing, and 503 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 5: roll away the tomb who told you it was over. 504 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 4: That wasn't the final word.
