1
00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: Hi, this is joelan Victorian. Thanks so much for listening

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,040
Speaker 1: to the podcast. Don't forget I have a new book out,

3
00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 1: fifteen Ways to Live Longer and Healthier. I think you'll

4
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 1: be blessed and encouraged by it. We love you so

5
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 1: much and we hope you enjoyed the message. Well, God

6
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:18,040
Speaker 1: bless you. Thanks so much for letting us come into

7
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:20,439
Speaker 1: your homes. We love you, and if you're ever in

8
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 1: our area, please stop by and be a part of

9
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,280
Speaker 1: one of our services. I'll promise you this will make

10
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 1: you feel right at home. But thanks so much for

11
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,319
Speaker 1: tuning in, and thank you again for coming out. I

12
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:32,760
Speaker 1: like to start with something funny. I heard about this

13
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:37,480
Speaker 1: lady that surprised a burglar in her kitchen one night late,

14
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 1: and she was home alone, no weapon, and she didn't

15
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 1: really know what to do. She thought, I'll just say

16
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 1: a scripture verse. She shouted out Acts two thirty eight.

17
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 1: The burglar suddenly froze and his tracks wouldn't move. The

18
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 1: police soon arrived and they were amazed at how a

19
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: woman with no weapon could do this. Now, he asked

20
00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,319
Speaker 1: the burglar, what was it about this scripture that had

21
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 1: such an effect on you? He said scripture. What scripture?

22
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: I thought she said she had an axe in two

23
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 1: thirty eighths. All right, holde up your bible, say it

24
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:13,119
Speaker 1: like you mean it. This is my Bible. I am

25
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: what it says. I am. I have what it says

26
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 1: I have. I can do what it says I can do.

27
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 1: Today I will be talked the word of God. I

28
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: boldly confess. My mind is alert, my heart is receptive.

29
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: I will never be the same. In Jesus' name, God

30
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: bless you. I want to talk to you today about

31
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 1: going further faster. We're living in a day where God

32
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 1: is speeding things up. What should have taken you a

33
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 1: lifetime to accomplish. Because you honor God, He's going to

34
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 1: do it in a fraction of the time. In your career.

35
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: Maybe it should take you twenty years to work your

36
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 1: way up to that position, twenty years to build your

37
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: business up. Now things have shifted. God's going to give

38
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: you breaks that you didn't deserve. He's going to bring

39
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 1: the right people across your path. You're going to see

40
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 1: opportunity like you've never seen before. It's going to take

41
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: you further faster. Get those two words down in your spirit.

42
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 1: It may look like in the natural it's going to

43
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: take you years to get out of debt, years to

44
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: get well, years to overcome that problem. No, you need

45
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: to get ready. You've come into this shift. Think of

46
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,239
Speaker 1: it like a car. When you shift from second gear

47
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: up to fourth gear. The engine is still running at

48
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 1: the same speed. It's not working any harder, but you're

49
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 1: going faster. You're covering more ground. The higher gears have

50
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: greater capacity. They're designed to go faster in the same way.

51
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 1: Because you've kept God first place, he's shifting you to

52
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:55,639
Speaker 1: a higher gear. You're going to go further faster now

53
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 1: because you're working harder, trying to make it all happen. No,

54
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 1: you're putting forth this same effort, being your best every day.

55
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: But all of a sudden, you get a good break

56
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 1: that thrusts you years down the road. You get a

57
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: promotion that you weren't qualified for. You're going to look

58
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: out and think, how did I get here? Should have

59
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 1: taken me another twenty years, but here I am. Medical

60
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: reports said it'd take me five years to recover, but

61
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: I did it in six months. Should have taken me

62
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 1: most of my career to get into management, but here

63
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: I am at the age of thirty. What is that

64
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: God taking you further faster. Part of the shift is acceleration.

65
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: It's not going to take as long to accomplish as

66
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: your goals as you think, not going to take as

67
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: long to get out of that problem as it looks.

68
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: Almighty God, the creator of the universe, is breathing in

69
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: your direction. He's going to cause things to fall into place.

70
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 1: The right people are going to be drawn to you,

71
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: good breaks, opportunities, healing, restoration, faith. It's not going to

72
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: be business as usual. You've come into a shift. It's

73
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: going to be business as unusual. In December of two

74
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: thousand and three, we signed a sixty year lease with

75
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: the City of Houston for this facility. We always wanted

76
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 1: to own it, but the lease was the best thing

77
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,159
Speaker 1: to make it happen at the time. Deep down, I

78
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:25,040
Speaker 1: knew sometime during that sixty year period God would give

79
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: us the ability to purchase it. Two thousand and three

80
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 1: I was forty years old. I would be one hundred

81
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 1: years old at the end of the lease. I said, God,

82
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: I want to purchase this building in my lifetime. I

83
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,279
Speaker 1: don't want to leave it up in the air for

84
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 1: the next generation. Three years ago, seven years into our

85
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: sixty year lease, the city was running low on funds.

86
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,799
Speaker 1: The tax revenues were not what they projected. They decided

87
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 1: to sell off some of their excess properties to make

88
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 1: up for the shortfall in the budget. The mayor's office

89
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,080
Speaker 1: called and asked if we would be interested in purchasing

90
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 1: the facility. Buying out the lease. A building like this

91
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: to build today would cost five hundred million dollars, and

92
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 1: of course we were interested, but we had to see

93
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 1: what the sell price was going to be. The city

94
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 1: did an appraisal. They had to take into account that

95
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: whoever bought the property, they would still have to honor

96
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: our sixty year lease. The appraisal came back not at

97
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: one hundred million, not at fifty million, but at seven

98
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 1: and a half million dollars. Today we owned this beautiful facility,

99
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: free and clear, no lease involved. Here's my point. What

100
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 1: could have taken sixty years, God did fifty three years sooner.

101
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 1: He took us further faster. Now you may think it's

102
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: gonna take you thirty years to get out of debt,

103
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: thirty years to pay your house off. You've already run

104
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: the numbers calculated it all. By the time you're one

105
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: hundred and seven years old, you're gonna be debt free. Yeah,

106
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 1: you're gonna be in heaven debt free. No, you don't

107
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: know what God is up to. You don't know what

108
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 1: God is already destined to come across your path one

109
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 1: phone call, like we received one contract, one good break,

110
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 1: one inheritance, and you're totally debt free. You're into overflow.

111
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 1: Now you need to get ready. God is saying it's

112
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: going to happen sooner than you think. I am shifting

113
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: things in your favor. You're going to come into acceleration.

114
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: What should have taken you a lifetime to accomplish, he's

115
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 1: going to do in a split second of time. Now,

116
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 1: don't talk yourself out of it. I don't know, Joe,

117
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 1: I don't have the seniority. I got all these college loans,

118
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,719
Speaker 1: this debt. I've gone as far as I can. They'll

119
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 1: be a believer and not a doubter. You may not

120
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: see a way, but God still has a way. Our

121
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 1: attitude should be God, I'm in agreement with you. I

122
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: believe you have shifted things in my favor. You are

123
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 1: taking me further faster. I will accomplish my dreams sooner

124
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: than I think. I will overcome these problems quicker than

125
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:09,280
Speaker 1: I thought. When you do that, Almighty God will open

126
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: doors that no man can shut. He'll connect you to

127
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 1: the right people. His favor will thrust you years down

128
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 1: the road. Back in nineteen forty nine, there was a

129
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: young minister named Billy Graham traveling the country, holding meetings

130
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: in large auditoriums. He was having success, but he wasn't

131
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 1: really nationally known. That summer, he conducted a meeting in

132
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: Los Angeles in a big tent. A gentleman showed up

133
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: by the name of William Randolph Hurst. Mister Hurst owned

134
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 1: newspapers all across the country. He was so touched that

135
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 1: night he sent a message to all of his publishers

136
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 1: to write favorable articles about Billy Graham. The next week,

137
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: the whole country was talking about this young minister. He

138
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 1: came to national prominence, Billy Graham practically overnight because of

139
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 1: this one man. What was that a divine shift? God

140
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: taken him further faster, could have taken him his whole

141
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: lifetime to gain that kind of respect and credibility, But

142
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,239
Speaker 1: God used one man to show him favor and open

143
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 1: doors that took Billy Graham to a new level. Now,

144
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 1: the good news is God has already lined up the

145
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: right people for you. They are already in your future.

146
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 1: It's just a matter of time before they show up.

147
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,959
Speaker 1: They will open doors that you could not open. They

148
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,319
Speaker 1: will show you favor even though you didn't ask. They

149
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 1: will use their influence to make you look good. They're

150
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 1: ordained by God to accelerate his plan for your life.

151
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: And what's interesting is Billy Graham didn't search him out.

152
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: He searched Billy Graham out. You don't have to go

153
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 1: try to find the right people. You just honor God,

154
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: and the right people will find you. They'll pick you

155
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 1: out of a crowd. They'll knock on your door, they'll

156
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: show up at your office for some reason. They will

157
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,439
Speaker 1: want to be good to you. That's a divine connection.

158
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:19,319
Speaker 1: God will cause them to use their expertise, even their funds,

159
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 1: to take you further faster. Here's what will happen. You'll

160
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: accomplish more in less time. You'll be promoted beyond your education.

161
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 1: You'll increase beyond your experience. The right people will help

162
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 1: you go where you could not go on your own.

163
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 1: We have some good friends named Jerry and Jana Lackey.

164
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: They attended Lakewood for many years and then they moved

165
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: to Botswana, Africa to do missions work. They live out

166
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 1: in the middle of nowhere, taking care of the orphans,

167
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: feeding the poor, and teaching people, doing amazing work. One

168
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: time they didn't have electricity, any of the modern conveniences

169
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: that we have. But they've stayed faith faithful. Year after

170
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: year They've seen God's blessings. They've built orphanages and clinics

171
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 1: and schools, and God's favors been on their life. But

172
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 1: their big dream was to build a major youth center.

173
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 1: Seventy percent of the population in Botswana is under the

174
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 1: age of twenty five. This youth center would be a

175
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: place where the young people could come and grow and

176
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 1: learn and make friends. But it was going to cost

177
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 1: five million dollars. That's a lot even here, but over there,

178
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 1: where the annual income is less than a thousand dollars,

179
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:40,559
Speaker 1: that was unheard of Jerry and Janna. They've raised funds

180
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 1: over the years, but nothing even close to this magnitude.

181
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 1: But one day a German businessman was visiting Botswana with

182
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 1: his wife and they fell in love with the country

183
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:54,960
Speaker 1: got back home to the States. They wanted to do

184
00:10:55,040 --> 00:11:00,440
Speaker 1: something to help. They googled the phrase Botswana Orphanages and

185
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 1: the Lackeys organization came up. It's called Love Botswana Outreach.

186
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 1: He sent them a donation for twenty thousand dollars. He said,

187
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 1: I want to do more. A few weeks went by,

188
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: he sent them a three hundred thousand dollars donation. The

189
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,440
Speaker 1: Lackeys were just so thrilled. He said, I want to

190
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 1: come see you. That man and his wife showed up

191
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 1: in Botswana and they stayed at this very exclusive safari

192
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: resort right there, about fifteen miles from the Lackey's Missions complex.

193
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,959
Speaker 1: Jerry went to pick him up. One morning. The man

194
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: that owned the resort said to Jerry, Hey, the resorts

195
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 1: for sale. Would you like to buy it? He thought

196
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,679
Speaker 1: Jerry was a wealthy businessman. Jerry kind of laugh said, man,

197
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 1: I'm a missionary living down the road. I don't have

198
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,559
Speaker 1: that kind of money, but thank you well. This German

199
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 1: businessman overheard the conversation. He asked Jerry to find out

200
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 1: more about it. Jerry thought he wanted to buy it

201
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:03,439
Speaker 1: for himself, but that German man bought this big, exclusive,

202
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 1: beautiful resort and gave it to Jerry and Jenna for

203
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:13,840
Speaker 1: their outreaches. They were overwhelmed. German man came to see

204
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 1: their missions complex and he noticed the plans they had

205
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 1: drawn for this big youth center. This was the greatest

206
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: thing that Janna and Jerry had ever dreamed to do,

207
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 1: something that they prayed and believed that somehow they could

208
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 1: accomplish in their lifetime. The man asked them how much

209
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 1: it was going to cost. They said five million dollars.

210
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 1: He said, all right, you a check, and on April fourth,

211
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,560
Speaker 1: in just a few days, they're going to dedicate totally

212
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 1: debt free that brand new youth facility. What was that

213
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 1: God taking them further faster. They're young people in their forties,

214
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 1: notice what I'm calling young now. It looked like they'd

215
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: be ray and believe in raising funds their whole life.

216
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,680
Speaker 1: But they came into this shift. God brought one man

217
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 1: across their path, a divine connection. Listen, you don't need

218
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 1: everyone to help you. You just need one person God ordained,

219
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 1: and you will accomplish in a split second. What could

220
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 1: have taken you your whole lifetime. Well, Joe, I don't

221
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: know this will happen for me. I never get any

222
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: good breaks. It's not going to happen with that attitude.

223
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 1: You cannot think thoughts of defeat and lick all day

224
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 1: and expect to have abundance. You can't talk mediocrity and

225
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 1: expect to have victory. You are prophesying your future. If

226
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 1: you want to see this shift occur in your own life,

227
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 1: you've got to get in agreement and say, yes, God,

228
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: this is for me. I believe you've lined up the

229
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 1: right people. I know they're already in my future. I

230
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 1: just want to thank you that I'll accomplish my dreams

231
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: sooner than I think. In the natural, it may not

232
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:06,079
Speaker 1: look like it, but remember we serve a supernatural God.

233
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:10,679
Speaker 1: He's about to release floods of his favor, floods of healing,

234
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 1: floods of good breaks. Take the limits off of God.

235
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: Don't think of all the reason this is not going

236
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 1: to work. God wouldn't have given you the dream unless

237
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: he already had a way to bring it to pass.

238
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 1: If you will stay in faith like the Lackeys, it

239
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 1: will not only happen sooner than you think, it'll be

240
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 1: bigger than you imagine. That's the way our God is

241
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 1: he likes to do exceedingly abundantly above and beyond. I

242
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: read about a certain kind of plant, it's called the

243
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 1: Chinese bamboo. For the first four years, it barely grows

244
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 1: above ground. You hardly see anything happening, even though you

245
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 1: water it, fertilize it, make sure it's getting sunlight. It

246
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 1: looks like you're wasting your time. But what you can't

247
00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 1: see is under the ground. It's a massive roots system.

248
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 1: The roots are spreading out in every possible direction. In

249
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 1: the fifth year, once the roots are properly established, the

250
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 1: plant will take off and shoot up to as high

251
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 1: as eighty feet in the air, from zero to eighty

252
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 1: feet all in one year. Many of you, like Jerry

253
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 1: and Jana, you've been faithful. You've given, you've served, you've

254
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 1: helped others. You've sown a lot of seeds, but you

255
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 1: haven't seen a lot of progress. Yes, God's been good

256
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: to you. You're grateful, but nothing really out of the ordinary.

257
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 1: That was the equivalent of your four years of developing roots.

258
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: You were proving to God that you would be faithful.

259
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 1: You were proving you would do the right thing when

260
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 1: it was hard. Now you need to get ready God

261
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 1: is saying, you're coming into your fifth year. You're going

262
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 1: to see explosive growth that will take you to levels

263
00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: beyond your income, beyond your training, beyond your experience. In

264
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 1: this fifth year, good breaks will find you, the right

265
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 1: people will search you out, Opportunity will come knocking on

266
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 1: your door. The fifth year is harvest time, is favor time.

267
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 1: You're going to reap from all the seeds that you've

268
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: sown down through the years. Nothing you've ever given has

269
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 1: gone unnoticed, every sacrifice you've made, every time you stop

270
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: to help someone. God sees that. The scripture talks about

271
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 1: how God will reward us in this life, not just

272
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 1: the sweet by and by. Because you've been faithful. There

273
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 1: is a harvest stored up like the lackeys. God is

274
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 1: about to release everything that belongs to you. It's going

275
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 1: to happen sooner than you think. It's going to be

276
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: bigger than you imagine. God is going to bring out

277
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 1: gifts and talents you didn't even know you had. He's

278
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 1: going to open up new doors of opportunity. This fifth

279
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 1: year is when God is going to shoot you up

280
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 1: higher than you ever even dreamed of. A Lady in

281
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 1: the scripture named Ruth experienced this fifth year. She was

282
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 1: living in a foreign country taking care of her mother

283
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 1: in law, Naomi. They were both widows. They were very poor.

284
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 1: They didn't have any income. Ruth would go out into

285
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 1: the fields early every morning and gather up the leftover

286
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,400
Speaker 1: wheat that the workers had missed. That's how they were

287
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:33,160
Speaker 1: living off of leftovers, day after day, month after month.

288
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 1: Ruth was very faithful. She could have gone back to

289
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,880
Speaker 1: her hometown and done her own thing, but she didn't

290
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: want to leave Naomi, her mother in law. An older

291
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 1: woman by herself, she sowed these seeds of kindness and generosity.

292
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,919
Speaker 1: It looked like this was her lot in life, to

293
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 1: struggle to barely get by, to live off of the leftovers.

294
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:59,360
Speaker 1: But one day, a man named Boaz he owned all

295
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 1: those feels, the wealthiest man in the area, He noticed Ruth.

296
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 1: He told his workers to leave handfuls of wheat on

297
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: purpose for Ruth to make it easier on her. Ruth

298
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 1: was very grateful, she didn't have to work so hard.

299
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 1: She kept being her best kept honoring God. She came

300
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:23,919
Speaker 1: in to her fifth year. Boaz He ended up falling

301
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 1: in love with Ruth and they got married. Now instead

302
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 1: of working in the field, Ruth owned the field. She

303
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 1: didn't have to pick up leftovers. Ever, again, God took

304
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 1: her further faster. What I love about this story is

305
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:45,119
Speaker 1: it shows us the heart of God. Ruth was satisfied

306
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,960
Speaker 1: living off of leftovers. She was content her needs were

307
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: being supplied, but God wasn't satisfied. That was fine for

308
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:58,120
Speaker 1: a season time of testing and proving for Ruth, but

309
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 1: God did not want that to be permit. God didn't

310
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 1: want Ruth to spend her life gathering up leftovers working

311
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 1: in the field. God wanted her to own that field.

312
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: And friends, God's dream for your life is much bigger

313
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:19,120
Speaker 1: than your own. Don't get satisfied just having your needs supplied. Yes,

314
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 1: be grateful, but God has so much more in store.

315
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 1: He wants you to come into overflow, into abundance, to

316
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,360
Speaker 1: where you can be a greater blessing wherever you go.

317
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,680
Speaker 1: You may be working for that company, but God knows

318
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,120
Speaker 1: how to shift things to where you own your own company.

319
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,120
Speaker 1: God does not want you to spend your life cleaning

320
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 1: that office. God wants you to be running that office.

321
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,560
Speaker 1: You may be teaching at that school and that's great,

322
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,479
Speaker 1: but don't be surprised if you end up running that school.

323
00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 1: You may be working behind the scenes like I was

324
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 1: for seventeen years. But then you come into your fifth

325
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 1: year and you see explodeosive growth and God takes your

326
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: places that you've never even dreamed. God, what am I saying?

327
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 1: Make room for God to do something big in this

328
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 1: new year. Go out every day with this expectancy. God

329
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 1: is working in my life right now. Lord, I just

330
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: want to thank you for explosive blessings, for divine connections,

331
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 1: for unprecedented favor. That's what a man in the scripture

332
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 1: did by the name of Nehemiah. He had a dream

333
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,960
Speaker 1: to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. In the natural it

334
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: was impossible. He was living a thousand miles away, working

335
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 1: as a cupbearer for the king. He didn't have the money,

336
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:46,639
Speaker 1: the position, the resources on paper. He didn't have a chance.

337
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:51,640
Speaker 1: But Neamiah knew that God's favor was on him. He

338
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 1: asked this king for permission to take a leave of

339
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:58,879
Speaker 1: absence to go and rebuild that wall. Notice his boldness.

340
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:03,159
Speaker 1: He wasn't a high level cabinet member, he wasn't a

341
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 1: senior advisor in the administration. He was working in the kitchen,

342
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:11,400
Speaker 1: cooking food, cleaning the tables. He could have thought, who

343
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 1: am I? I could never do something big. I don't

344
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:16,640
Speaker 1: have the influence, I don't have the money, I don't

345
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 1: know the right people. No, Niami two verse eight shows

346
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 1: us his attitude. He said, the King granted me this

347
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:28,399
Speaker 1: request because the gracious hand of God was upon me.

348
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 1: He was saying, it may not look like it in

349
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:35,119
Speaker 1: the natural, but I have a secret weapon, something that

350
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:39,359
Speaker 1: you cannot see. The favor of God is on my life.

351
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 1: Niami went out and started rebuilding the wall. He had

352
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 1: all kinds of opposition. City leaders wouldn't give him a permit.

353
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: Critics tried to stop him. Bandits came up, and he

354
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,919
Speaker 1: had to fight them off one thing after another. He

355
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,880
Speaker 1: just kept being his best, doing what God called him

356
00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:00,240
Speaker 1: to do. That should have taken him years and years.

357
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 1: But Neamiah rebuilt that wall in just fifty two days.

358
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 1: What was that? God taken him further faster. God had

359
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 1: it all lined up. God gave him favor with the king.

360
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 1: God arranged the right people, the resources, the protection. Should

361
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 1: have taken years. That wall had been down for a

362
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,359
Speaker 1: long time. Should have taken him his whole lifetime, but

363
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 1: with God's help, he did it in fifty two days.

364
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 1: Now your dream may seem too big. Think, oh man Joel,

365
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 1: I've waited too long. I've missed too many opportunities. I

366
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 1: don't have the resources the connections. Know. Just like with Nehemiah,

367
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 1: God has it all figured out because you've honored him.

368
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 1: God is saying, I'm bringing you into your fifth year.

369
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna connect you to the right people. I'm gonna

370
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 1: give you breaks that you didn't deserve. I'm gonna open

371
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 1: doors that you weren't qualified for. I'm gonna give you

372
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 1: wisdom beyond your years. God. God is going to accelerate

373
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 1: his plan for your life. You could be going along

374
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 1: normal pace, been that way for years and years, but

375
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:13,400
Speaker 1: now you've hit this shift. Get ready for acceleration. Get

376
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 1: ready for new doors to open, Get ready for the

377
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 1: right people to show up at your doorstep. Have this

378
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:25,640
Speaker 1: attitude of expectancy further faster. Now here's the key. There

379
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:30,200
Speaker 1: will always be opposition to you moving forward. When Nehemiah

380
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 1: came into his fifth year, the opponents came out of

381
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 1: the woodwork. Everything tried to stop him. Don't be discouraged

382
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: by the opposition. That's a sign that God has shifted

383
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 1: things now the enemy. He don't want you to move forward.

384
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,400
Speaker 1: As long as you're complacent, stay where you are, that's

385
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:52,920
Speaker 1: no problem. But when you start taking new ground, when

386
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 1: you start praying God sized prayers, when you know God

387
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 1: has shifted things in your favor, don't be surprised if

388
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 1: you have opposite. All that means is you are close

389
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 1: to your victory. You are close to seeing these explosive blessings.

390
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 1: Have a good friend. It's been in a legal situation

391
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 1: for the last year. It's been very heavy on her heart.

392
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 1: She was told that it could take ten years to

393
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,639
Speaker 1: resolve her opponents. They could drag it out just to

394
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,440
Speaker 1: make her life miserable. And at one time she was

395
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:28,600
Speaker 1: a very upbeat, fun person to be around. That after

396
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 1: months and months of waiting and setbacks and pressure, it's

397
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 1: like she was a different person. No joy, no peace,

398
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 1: no victory, very solemn, very serious. It looked like there

399
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,159
Speaker 1: could be years and years of this stress and frustration.

400
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,239
Speaker 1: But just last week she got the good news that

401
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:51,440
Speaker 1: the case was totally resolved, all in her favor. Everything

402
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 1: was cleared up. She said, Joel, I can't even tell

403
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: you what a load. This is being lifted off of me.

404
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:02,680
Speaker 1: What happened He came into her fifth year. What could

405
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 1: have taken ten years, even twenty years, God did in

406
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,920
Speaker 1: less than a year, just like with her. Because you've

407
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 1: been faithful, problems you've struggled with for years are going

408
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 1: to suddenly resolve, unexpectedly turn around. God is going to

409
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:22,119
Speaker 1: cause things to fall into place. The right people are

410
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:26,439
Speaker 1: going to show up. You need to get ready for acceleration. Friends.

411
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:31,360
Speaker 1: God has shifted you into a higher gear. He's enlarging

412
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 1: your capacity. You're going to accomplish more in less time.

413
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 1: You're going to go further putting forth the same amount

414
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 1: of effort. What is that You've come into your fifth year.

415
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:47,879
Speaker 1: God is accelerating his plan for your life. Let me

416
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 1: declare it. It's not going to take a lifetime for

417
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,679
Speaker 1: you to accomplish your dreams. It's going to happen in

418
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 1: a fraction of the time. It's not going to take

419
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 1: you thirty years to get out of debt. Supernatural increase

420
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 1: is coming your way. It's not going to take you

421
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 1: years to work your way up in that company. Explosive

422
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 1: growth is in your future. It's not going to take

423
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,919
Speaker 1: years to overcome that addiction, to break that bad habit,

424
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 1: to get healthy again. It's going to happen sooner than

425
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 1: you think. Now, do your part. Stay in agreement with God.

426
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 1: Get up every morning, say Lord, I want to thank

427
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:25,960
Speaker 1: you that you're taking me further faster, and then go

428
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 1: out each day with that expectancy that God is at

429
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 1: work in my life right now. If you do this,

430
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:36,120
Speaker 1: I believe and declare, like Jerry and Jenna Lackey, You're

431
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,439
Speaker 1: going to see divine connections. The right people come across

432
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 1: your path. Like us in the building, what should have

433
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:46,159
Speaker 1: taken sixty years, God's going to accelerate to a few years.

434
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 1: And like Ruth, instead of working in the field, you're

435
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 1: going to end up owning the field. God's going to

436
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:56,679
Speaker 1: do exceedingly, abundantly above and beyond further faster. Come on,

437
00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 1: give the Lord a shout of praise today. We never

438
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 1: like to close our broadcast without giving you an opportunity

439
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,679
Speaker 1: to make Jesus the lord of your life. Would you

440
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 1: pray with me? Just say Lord, Jesus, I'll repent of

441
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 1: my sins. Come into my heart. I make you my

442
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:20,719
Speaker 1: Lord and savior. Friends, if you pray that simple prayer.

443
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,160
Speaker 1: We believe you got born again. Get in a good

444
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 1: Bible based church. Keep God first place. He's going to

445
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 1: take your places that you've never dreamed of.

446
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 2: Sometimes life can make you feel like you are just

447
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 2: living in the dark. Even your prayers don't feel like

448
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 2: they are making it to heaven. But God is listening

449
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 2: and his light is about to shine.

450
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,159
Speaker 1: We know God is all powerful that he can answer

451
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,399
Speaker 1: any prayer, but sometimes we don't know what to pray.

452
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 1: We don't think we deserve God's goodness. Maybe we're inconveniencing him,

453
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,960
Speaker 1: or he has more important things to deal with. But

454
00:27:56,000 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 1: God is concerned about every detail of your life to

455
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 1: hear your prayers. I have a new resource called Praying

456
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 1: with Confidence, guided prayers for life's moments. When you face

457
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 1: challenges or obstacles that seem too big, you'll find prayers

458
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,919
Speaker 1: that will build your faith, prayers that will move the

459
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,679
Speaker 1: hands of God. There are prayers you can pray for
