1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:02,240
Speaker 1: Hi, this is Joel and Victoria.

2

Speaker 2: I promise you we'll make you feel right at home.

10
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 2: I like to start with something funny and it's just

11
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 2: a joke. Please don't be offended. But I heard about

12
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 2: this blonde lady. She was driving down the freeway when

13
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,240
Speaker 2: she was pulled over by a female police officer who

14
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 2: also happened to be blonde. The officer asked to see

15
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 2: her driver's license. The lady Doug and Doug and her purse,

16
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 2: getting more and more agitated, couldn't find it. Finally, I

17
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,639
Speaker 2: asked the officer what it looked like. The officer said,

18
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 2: it's a little square that has your picture on it.

19
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 2: The lady pulled out a mirror and saw herself and said, oh,

20
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 2: handed it to the officer. The looked at the mirror

21
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 2: and saw herself handed it back. He said, okay, you

22
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 2: can go. I didn't realize you were a police officer.

23
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 2: All right, I'm gonna need a ride home, but here

24
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 2: we go. This is my Bible. I am what it

25
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 2: says I am. I have what it says I have.

26
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,960
Speaker 2: I can do what it says I can do. Today

27
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 2: I will be taught the word of God. I boldly confess.

28
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 2: My mind is alert, my heart is receptive. I will

29
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 2: never be the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you.

30
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 2: I want to talk to you today about it's payback time.

31
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 2: We all go through unfair situations. We were overlooked for

32
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 2: a promotion, or came down with an illness, or somebody

33
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 2: walked out.

34
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: Of a relationship.

35
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 2: It's easy to get discouraged and think that's just life,

36
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 2: a bad break. Nothing I can do about it. You

37
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 2: may not be able to, but God can. He's a

38
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:57,559
Speaker 2: God of justice. He has seen everything you've been through,

39
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 2: every person that did you wrong, lonely night, every tear.

40
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 2: He said in Hebrews, I will repay the exact compensation

41
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 2: owed you. It may not have been fair, but don't worry.

42
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:12,920
Speaker 1: Payback is coming.

43
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 2: God is going to make up for the wrongs that

44
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 2: were done to you. Those people that put you at

45
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 2: a disadvantage. Don't live bitter thinking. You have to get even.

46
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 2: It's not your battle. The battle is the lord's. He

47
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 2: knows what you're owed. He's keeping the records. He'll not

48
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 2: only take care of the opposition, he'll make it up

49
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:36,239
Speaker 2: to you. You may have been raised in an unhealthy environment.

50
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 2: Nobody was there to make you feel encouraged, loved, and valuable.

51
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 1: It seems like that sets you back, but.

52
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 2: People don't determine your destiny. What you didn't get, who

53
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 2: wasn't there for you is not going to keep you

54
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 2: from your purpose. God sees how you were treated and

55
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,360
Speaker 2: he's saying payback is coming.

56
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: He's going to show.

57
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 2: You favor because of what happen. The enemy minute to

58
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 2: stop you. God's going to use it to increase you.

59
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 2: He's going to open new doors, bring opportunity, joy fulfillment

60
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 2: that you wouldn't have seen if that had not happened.

61
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 2: Instead of being discouraged, turn it around, Father, thank you

62
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 2: that payback is coming. I know you're on the throne.

63
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:25,639
Speaker 2: You're fighting my battles. You're my vindicator because you honor

64
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 2: God because you're keeping him first place. You have an advantage.

65
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 2: You're on his payroll. Now, Quit living worried thinking you're

66
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 2: falling behind. Those people at work left you out. Now,

67
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 2: you could never get to where you want to be.

68
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:42,119
Speaker 1: God is in control.

69
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 2: One touch of his favor will catapult you ahead. He

70
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 2: knows how to move the wrong people out of the way.

71
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 2: They may be stopping you now, but they're not going

72
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 2: to stop you your whole life.

73
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 1: Why payback is coming.

74
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 2: Keep doing the right thing when the thing is happening.

75
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 2: You are not working under people. You are working under God.

76
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 2: When you know you're on his payroll. You don't get

77
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 2: upset when unfair things happen, or discourage because somebody is

78
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 2: treating you badly, or give up on a dream because

79
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 2: you had a disappointment.

80
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: You know payback is coming. Here's what I've learned.

81
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 2: Nobody can pay you back like God can pay you back.

82
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 1: Just ask the Israelites.

83
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 2: They had been in slavery for four hundred and thirty years,

84
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 2: one generation after another, mistreated, forced to work long hours,

85
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 2: given quotas that were impossible to meet. I'm sure they

86
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 2: thought that was their destiny. That's the way it be

87
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:47,279
Speaker 2: for their children, their grandchildren. It was just bad luck.

88
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 2: They were born at the wrong time, born into hardship.

89
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 2: Things may not change overnight, but if you'll stay in faith,

90
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 2: there will come a point where God will say enough

91
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 2: is enough, is payback time. He's going to turn things around,

92
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 2: not just bring you out. He'll pay you back for

93
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 2: the injustice. He's going to pay you.

94
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: Back for an unfair childhood.

95
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 2: He's going to pay you back for the promotion that

96
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 2: should have been yours, or pay you back from those

97
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 2: people that tried to damage your reputation. God said, I

98
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,119
Speaker 2: have seen the afflictions of my people. I have heard

99
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 2: their cries, and I am coming down to deliver them.

100
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 1: You may have been in a difficulty for a long time.

101
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 2: God is saying to you what he said to them,

102
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 2: I am coming down.

103
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 1: To do something about it. This is a new day.

104
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 2: What has hindered you in the past, the sickness, the betrayal,

105
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 2: the people that did you wrong, that is not permanent.

106
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 2: Payback is coming, Healing is coming, Vindication is coming, promotion

107
00:05:55,440 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 2: is coming, New relationships are coming. You were not created

108
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 2: to go through life lonely. And that person that left you,

109
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 2: that didn't recognize your value. That maybe told you you're

110
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 2: not smart enough, good enough, attractive enough. Don't believe those lies.

111
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 2: You've been made in the image of Almighty God. He

112
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,600
Speaker 2: calls you a masterpiece. He's crowned you with favor. He

113
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,719
Speaker 2: moved that person away so he could bring someone that

114
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:29,720
Speaker 2: recognizes who you are, someone that celebrates you, that cherishes you,

115
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 2: that can't wait to be with you. When God pays

116
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 2: you back, it's going to exceed your expectations. You're going

117
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 2: to think I never dreamed life could be this great,

118
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 2: never dreamed I could feel this good, never dreamed I'd

119
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 2: be this blessed, this happy, this fulfilled. That's the God who.

120
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: Pays you back.

121
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 2: Now, I believe you are closer than you think. Things

122
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,840
Speaker 2: are about to shift in your favor. People that are

123
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 2: against you are suddenly going to sh and before you.

124
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 2: They don't even understand why. They can't explain it. They

125
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,839
Speaker 2: didn't have a choice. It's God causing them to be

126
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 2: good to you. That sickness looks permanent. The medical report says,

127
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 2: learn to live with it. No, get ready, it's about

128
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 2: to shift.

129
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 1: Healing is coming, Wholeness is coming.

130
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 2: That struggle, the lack not able to get ahead. Maybe

131
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 2: you can look back. It's been in your family line

132
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 2: for generations. Nobody's been able to break out. Get ready,

133
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 2: you're the one. A shift is coming. Ideas, creativity, promotion, contracts,

134
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 2: real estate, it's going to come into your hands. That's

135
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 2: God paying your back. Some of this payback is from

136
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 2: what your forefathers worked for and didn't receive. They weren't

137
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 2: treated right, they weren't respected given what they deserved. But

138
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 2: God has all the records what your family is owed.

139
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 2: You're going to come into generational payback blessings that have

140
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 2: been accruing in your family's account. God has not forgotten

141
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 2: about your great grandparents that honored him, people in your

142
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 2: family line that did the right thing but didn't get

143
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 2: what they deserved.

144
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 1: Part of this payback is houses that you didn't.

145
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 2: Build, favor, that you didn't work for, promotions when you

146
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 2: didn't have the qualifications.

147
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: He's a god of justice, He's going to pay you back.

148
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,959
Speaker 2: Moses went to the Pharaoh and told him that God

149
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 2: said to let the Israelites go, but he wouldn't.

150
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:40,679
Speaker 1: Listen to Moses.

151
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 2: So God sent plague after plague on Pharaoh and his people.

152
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 2: He finally changed his mind. As the Israelites left, some

153
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:55,479
Speaker 2: two million people, I'm sure they were excited, singing, dancing.

154
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 2: This was a dream come true. After generations they were

155
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,439
Speaker 2: going to have to work these long hours, live oppressed

156
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 2: and burdened. This was a great miracle in itself, just

157
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 2: to be free. They were satisfied, But God wasn't satisfied.

158
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 2: He said in Exodus three, I will see to it

159
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 2: that the Egyptians treat you well. They will load you

160
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 2: down with gifts, so you will not leave empty handy.

161
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:25,839
Speaker 1: On their way.

162
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 2: Out, the Israelites asked their captors for their gold, their silver,

163
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 2: their jewelry, their clothing. God gave them favor, and they

164
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 2: freely gave it to the Israelites. For generations, they had

165
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 2: been loaded down with burdens, loaded down with injustice. Now

166
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:48,319
Speaker 2: they were loaded down with blessings, loaded down with valuables.

167
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 2: They left pushing wheelbarrows full of treasures. What was that

168
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 2: God paying them back for four hundred and thirty years

169
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 2: of injustice. God saw what was unfair not only to them,

170
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 2: but to the generations before them. God is keeping the records.

171
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 2: You may be satisfied. If God would just turn it

172
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 2: around you'd be happy if God just brought you out

173
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 2: of the difficulty. But God is not satisfied. He's going

174
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 2: to make the enemy pay. You are not going to

175
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 2: come out empty handed. You are going to come out loaded,

176
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 2: better than you were promoted, stronger, healthier, at a new level.

177
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,959
Speaker 2: I can imagine a mother taking a gold necklace putting

178
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,199
Speaker 2: it on her daughter. The little girl has never worn

179
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 2: a necklace. Now she feels so valuable, so special. Everywhere

180
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 2: she goes. When people see it, it's a reminder that

181
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 2: God not only brought them out, but he paid them back.

182
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 2: You may be in an unfair situation. You don't understand

183
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 2: why it happened, why you came down with an illness

184
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,199
Speaker 2: while you went through a loss, why those people at

185
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 2: weren't are against you.

186
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 1: Don't worry.

187
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 2: God sees it. You are not going to come out

188
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 2: empty handed. He is going to pay you back in

189
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 2: such a way that other people are going to see

190
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:15,479
Speaker 2: the favor on your life. The scripture says the Israelites

191
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 2: went into Egypt in great distress, but they came out

192
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 2: with great abundance. How you go in does it determine

193
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,359
Speaker 2: how you're going to come out. You may go in addicted,

194
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 2: You're going to come out free.

195
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 1: You may go in sick, you're going to come out healthy.

196
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 2: You may go in mistreated injustice, you're going to come

197
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 2: out vindicated, paid back. You may go in struggling in debt,

198
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 2: but you're going to come out with great abundance. I

199
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 2: talked to a lady. She owns her own business. For years,

200
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,679
Speaker 2: she'd rented space in this shopping mall. She's always been

201
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,320
Speaker 2: a great tenant, always paid her bills on time. One day,

202
00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:00,080
Speaker 2: she received an email from the landlord saying that they

203
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 2: were going to double her rent. This came out of

204
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 2: the blue for no reasoning. She knew she couldn't make

205
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:10,200
Speaker 2: a profit paying that much. They were basically forcing her out.

206
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 2: It was unfair. She was concerned, didn't know what she

207
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 2: was going to do. She turned the television on, and

208
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 2: there I was. I was talking about how trouble can

209
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 2: be transportation, how sometimes God will allow difficulties to move

210
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 2: us ahead, how we can trust that He's in control,

211
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 2: that he will make these wrongs right. Deep down, she

212
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 2: knew everything was going to be all right. She came

213
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 2: back to a place of peace. A couple of days later,

214
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:44,319
Speaker 2: another landlord that had space two doors down contacted her.

215
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 2: She didn't go looking for him, He came looking for her.

216
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 2: He offered her twice the amount of space that she

217
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 2: currently had for half the amount of rent. She couldn't

218
00:12:55,920 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 2: believe it. She gladly moved to the new location. God

219
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 2: knows how to pay you back.

220
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 1: He knows what's not fair.

221
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 2: He sees every sparrow that falls to the ground, every

222
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:12,679
Speaker 2: little bird. How much more does God see everything that

223
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 2: happens with you? You don't have to live worried thinking

224
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,959
Speaker 2: the disappointment, the bad break is the end. That setback

225
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 2: is really a set up for God to show out

226
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 2: in your life. Isaiah said, God will give you a

227
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 2: twofold recompense for the unfair things that have happened. That

228
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 2: means God will pay you back double. It's not a

229
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 2: coincidence that that lady got twice the space for half

230
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 2: the rent. It's not a coincidence. In the scripture, after

231
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,680
Speaker 2: all the heartache and pain, Job came out with twice

232
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:50,199
Speaker 2: the cattle, twice the sheep, twice what he had. It's

233
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 2: not a coincidence. When property was sold out from under us,

234
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 2: we acquired the Compact Center. This place we went from

235
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:02,320
Speaker 2: an eight thousand seed auditorium to sixteen thousand seat auditorium,

236
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 2: exactly double. When you go through unfair situations, somebody does

237
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 2: you wrong. Instead of being sour, have a new perspective.

238
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 2: They just qualified you for double. You may not like it,

239
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 2: it may not have been fair.

240
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: Stay in faith.

241
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 2: When God pays you back, you're not going to come

242
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 2: out the same like the Israelites.

243
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: You're going to come.

244
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 2: Out loaded down with blessings. This is what happened to Jacob.

245
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 2: He made an agreement to work for his uncle Laban

246
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 2: for seven years. In return, Laban would give him his

247
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 2: daughter Rachel to marry. Jacob worked faithfully these seven years,

248
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 2: increasing Laban's flocks many times over. He made Laban a

249
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 2: very wealthy man. But Laban changed his mind. He said, Jacob,

250
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 2: you can marry my daughter Leah, but if you want

251
00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 2: to marry Rachel, you're gonna have to work another seven years.

252
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 1: That wasn't what they agreed to. It was unfair. He

253
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 1: was dishonest. Jacob went ahead and did it.

254
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 2: At the end of the fourteen years, he told Laban

255
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 2: that he was going to move back to his hometown

256
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 2: with Rachel and his family. Well, Laban felt kind of

257
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 2: guilty because he'd hardly paid Jacob anything. He asked Jacob

258
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 2: what he could do for him. Jacob said, I'll work

259
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 2: for you a little longer.

260
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 1: I don't want any money.

261
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 2: Just let me have the sheep and goats that are

262
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 2: spotted and streaked. You can have all the solid colored animals.

263
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 2: That way, when I leave, you'll know I'm not taking

264
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 2: anything that belongs to you. Well, there were very few

265
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 2: streaked and spotted animals, so Laban quickly agreed.

266
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 1: He thought this is a great deal.

267
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 2: He was so dishonest he snuck out in the middle

268
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 2: of the night and removed all the spotted and streaked

269
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 2: animals and put them in a different pasture. That way,

270
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 2: the solid colored animals couldn't make with the other ones,

271
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 2: and Jacob wouldn't have as much. What Laban didn't realize

272
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 2: is God controls the universe when he is ready to

273
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 2: pay you back. Unfair people can't stop him. Bad brakes

274
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:18,280
Speaker 2: can't stop him. All the forces of darkness cannot keep

275
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 2: him from bringing justice into your life. When those solid

276
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 2: colored animals mate it, you know what color their offspring

277
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 2: was streaked and spotted.

278
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: God has the final say.

279
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 2: He's not limited by the laws of nature, by an

280
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 2: unfair boss, by what somebody says. Laban was over there,

281
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 2: shaking his head, thinking how in the world did that happen.

282
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 2: He was so frustrated. He said, Jacob, I want to

283
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 2: change the agreement. From now on, you only get the

284
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 2: spotted colored animals. Jacob said, fine, Now all the animals

285
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 2: that were born were spotted colored. Laban said, I want

286
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 2: to change the agreement again. Now I want the spotted

287
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 2: colored animals. Now all the animals that were born were

288
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 2: solid colored. The blessing followed Jacob. He left there with

289
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 2: more flocks than his uncle Laban. What was that God

290
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:16,920
Speaker 2: paying him back? Maybe someone is not keeping their word

291
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 2: with you. They changed the agreement. They're not being honest.

292
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,120
Speaker 1: Don't worry. God is keeping the records. He's going to.

293
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 2: Make things happen that not only they can't stop, but

294
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:32,119
Speaker 2: they can't explain. They're going to be scratching their heads thinking,

295
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 2: how did you get so blessed? The more they tried

296
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 2: to push you down, the more you rose up. The

297
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,639
Speaker 2: more they tried to discredit you, leave you out, ignore you,

298
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 2: the more God causes you to shine. They're doing their

299
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 2: best to limit you They don't realize you're not on

300
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 2: people's payroll, You're on God's pay roll. Jacob said Genesis

301
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 2: thirty one, Laban, you would have sent me out without

302
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 2: one penny.

303
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 1: But God has seen how unfair you've been to me.

304
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:05,160
Speaker 2: That's why he's vindicated me and given me an abundance.

305
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 2: Like with Jacob, God sees what's unfair. He's not going

306
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 2: to just bring you out. He's going to bring you

307
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 2: out with abundance. He has not brought you this far

308
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:20,399
Speaker 2: to leave you the disappointments, the bad breaks, the people

309
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 2: that did you wrong. That is not the end. The

310
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 2: enemy would love to convince you to live discouraged, give

311
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,120
Speaker 2: up on dreams, settle where you are.

312
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 1: Don't believe those lies.

313
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,440
Speaker 2: Those setbacks are setting you up for a new level

314
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 2: of your destiny. In the scripture, Abraham's nephew Lot was

315
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 2: captured by an enemy army. They raided his property and

316
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:47,120
Speaker 2: took Lot and all of his children, his family, everything

317
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 2: that he owed. One of his men escaped and went

318
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 2: and told Abraham what happened. Abraham called his men together, said,

319
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,400
Speaker 2: Lots in trouble. We have to go rescue him. They

320
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,719
Speaker 2: snuck up on the enemy army at night and attacked

321
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 2: them from all different sides. The scripture says Abraham recovered

322
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 2: all that was stolen Lot, with all of his possessions,

323
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 2: all of his family, all of his children. What's interesting

324
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 2: is Lot wasn't supposed to be there in the first place.

325
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 2: God told Abraham to leave his relatives and go to

326
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 2: a new land, but Abraham decided to take Lot with him.

327
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,359
Speaker 2: God could have said, Abraham, Lot's in trouble, but too bad.

328
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 2: It's your fault. I told you not to bring him.

329
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,679
Speaker 2: But God is so merciful even when we make mistakes,

330
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:40,120
Speaker 2: even when it's our fault, he says, I'm still going

331
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 2: to help you. Abraham recovered all. Maybe you've made mistakes.

332
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,679
Speaker 2: You're thinking, Joel, God's not cole pay me back. I

333
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 2: can understand if it was unfair, if somebody did me wrong,

334
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 2: but this was my fault. I brought the trouble on myself.

335
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,159
Speaker 2: God is saying to you what he said to Abraham.

336
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: I'm going to help help you recover all.

337
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 2: Maybe you didn't raise your children right now they're off. Course,

338
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 2: You're gonna recover all your children. You spent money that

339
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 2: you didn't have. Now you're over your head. You're gonna

340
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,360
Speaker 2: recover all your finances. You didn't take care of your body,

341
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:20,359
Speaker 2: maybe you gave into addictions. You're gonna recover all your health,

342
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:27,400
Speaker 2: not partial recovery, partial freedom, fully recovered, fully healthy, fully blessed.

343
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 1: God is saying you're.

344
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 2: Gonna get it all back, all your finances, all your children,

345
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 2: all your health, all your dreams, everything that has been stolen. Luke,

346
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 2: chapter seventeen. Ten lepers saw Jesus walking through their village,

347
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 2: and leprosy was a dreaded disease would cause the skin

348
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 2: to become so infected, get so bad that sometimes raw

349
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 2: flesh would start showing. Parts of the body would become dismembered.

350
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 2: A finger, a toe would rot and eventually fall off,

351
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,880
Speaker 2: or hands or years curl up and become useless. These

352
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,880
Speaker 2: lepers called out for mercy, asking Jesus to come heal them.

353
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,640
Speaker 2: But Jesus didn't go and pray for them. He didn't

354
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 2: lay hands on them, He didn't even speak healing. He

355
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 2: told them to go show themselves to the priest. That's

356
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 2: what you would normally do after you were healed. They

357
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,679
Speaker 2: could have thought, I'm not healed yet. Be a waste

358
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 2: of time. Once I see my healing, I'll go. They

359
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:33,680
Speaker 2: didn't realize their healing was dependent on their obedience. When

360
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:37,640
Speaker 2: God asked you to do something, don't debate it, don't

361
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,439
Speaker 2: try to figure it out, don't call ten friends and

362
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:44,119
Speaker 2: get their opinion. Just do it. When you obey, a

363
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:50,120
Speaker 2: blessing always follows. The scripture says, as they went they

364
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 2: were healed. I can imagine as they were walking to

365
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 2: the priest, hands that had been gnarled for years suddenly

366
00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,439
Speaker 2: begin to open up. Maybe a finger bea begins to

367
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 2: grow out, a toe that was missing begins to reform.

368
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 2: An ear that all curled up begins to straighten out

369
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:12,120
Speaker 2: like a movie. Parts of their bodies that were dismembered, disfigured,

370
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:12,960
Speaker 2: begin to.

371
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:14,400
Speaker 1: Morph back to normal.

372
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 2: By the time they got to the priests, they were

373
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 2: perfectly well. These were unusual miracles, things that seemed impossible,

374
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 2: rotting flesh, a finger missing.

375
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 1: Can't do anything about that.

376
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:31,160
Speaker 2: But nothing is too difficult for our God.

377
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 1: Like these lepers.

378
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,120
Speaker 2: You may have a situation that looks too far gone,

379
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:39,360
Speaker 2: like it could never work out. But God has some

380
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 2: of these unusual miracles for you, unusual healing, unusual favor

381
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 2: unusual promotion. It's something that you haven't seen out of

382
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,959
Speaker 2: the ordinary. It's never happened in your life.

383
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 1: Get ready. Payback is coming.

384
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:59,160
Speaker 2: The enemy may have done his best, but his best

385
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 2: was not enough. God has the final say. He said

386
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 2: in the Book of Joel, I will repay you for

387
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 2: the years that the locusts have eaten. That was talking

388
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 2: about crops. They had lost, insects that had wiped out

389
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 2: their harvest. They had struggled for years. They thought that

390
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:22,080
Speaker 2: was their destiny. But the next verse says, you will

391
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 2: eat in plenty and be satisfied. God is saying this

392
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 2: to you. I'm going to repay you for the years

393
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 2: the enemy has stolen me. Years you were mistreated, Years

394
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:39,679
Speaker 2: you were lonely. Years you were sick, addicted, depressed. God

395
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 2: is about to repay you. You're going to have plenty

396
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 2: of joy, plenty of health, plenty of friends, plenty of opportunities,

397
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 2: plenty of resources. You're not only going to be satisfied.

398
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 1: You're going to be amazed.

399
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 2: That's the most high God paying you back.

400
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:58,200
Speaker 1: I know this lady.

401
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 2: She got off to a rough start in life. She

402
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 2: dropped out of high school at fifteen and had her

403
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:07,399
Speaker 2: first baby at sixteen. She didn't have any guidance and

404
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 2: she ended up spending three years in prison with a

405
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 2: felony offense for writing two thousand dollars worth of bad checks.

406
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 2: Because she had a felony, she lost her right to vote.

407
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 1: This really bothered her.

408
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 2: When she got out of prison, the only job she

409
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 2: could find was working as a bartender. There was a

410
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:31,680
Speaker 2: man that lived by the bar that was constantly encouraging her,

411
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 2: telling her this bar is not where you belong. God

412
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 2: has something better for you. One day you're going to

413
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 2: own your own business. One day you're going to get

414
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 2: your voting rights back. She would weep and weep. This

415
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:50,400
Speaker 2: sounded too good to be true. She thought, that's impossible.

416
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 2: I have a felony. How could that happen? All the

417
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 2: circumstances said.

418
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:57,640
Speaker 1: She was stuck. The odds were against her.

419
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:03,199
Speaker 2: But God has unusual faith, unusual opportunities. There was a

420
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 2: lady close by that had a restaurant for sale.

421
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: This young lady.

422
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,640
Speaker 2: Wanted to buy it, but she didn't have the funds.

423
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,400
Speaker 2: She went to the lady and told her her story.

424
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,400
Speaker 2: The lady said there was a man in the restaurant

425
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,160
Speaker 2: business that really wanted to purchase it. But there's something

426
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 2: special about you, something that I really like. I don't

427
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,639
Speaker 2: need your money. I'm going to give you my restaurant.

428
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:32,479
Speaker 2: She has been in business now there eleven years plus.

429
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 2: Recently she opened up a second restaurant.

430
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:37,720
Speaker 1: A while back.

431
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:42,120
Speaker 2: The governor's office called and informed her that the governor

432
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 2: was giving her a pardon. She got her voting rights back.

433
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:50,239
Speaker 2: Is there anything too hard for our God? You may

434
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:54,400
Speaker 2: have made mistakes, but God is full of mercy. May

435
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 2: look impossible, but God has all power. He knows what

436
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaker 2: you've been through. He knows what was fair.

437
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:01,920
Speaker 1: He's saying today.

438
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:06,439
Speaker 2: Payback is coming, not partial, not halfway, not ninety percent.

439
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 2: You're going to get it all back. I believe and declare.

440
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,520
Speaker 2: God is going to restore the years that the enemy

441
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,640
Speaker 2: has stolen. You're not going to come out empty handed

442
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 2: like the Israelites.

443
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:19,639
Speaker 1: You're going to come out loaded down.

444
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 2: Unusual favor, unusual healing, unusual breakthroughs, the fullness of your

445
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:30,199
Speaker 2: destiny in Jesus's name, And if you receive it, can

446
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 2: you say him in today? But I'd like to give

447
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,440
Speaker 2: you an opportunity to make Jesus the lord of your life.

448
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 2: Would you pray with me, just say, Lord Jesus, I

449
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 2: repent of my sins.

450
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 1: Come into my heart. I make you my Lord and savior.

451
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,439
Speaker 2: Well, if you prayed that simple prayer, we believe you

452
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 2: got born again, Get in a good Bible based church,

453
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,680
Speaker 2: and keep God first place. When was the last time

454
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 2: you ask God to do something that seemed impossible. If

455
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 2: you only pray small, ordinary prayers, you live a small,

456
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 2: ordinary lie.

457
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:10,359
Speaker 1: I have a new book called Pray Bold.

458
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,280
Speaker 2: I'll challenge you to stretch your faith and believe for

459
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:16,480
Speaker 2: the big things God puts in your heart. Victoria and

460
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:19,160
Speaker 2: I used to have seasoned tickets to watch the Rockets

461
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,439
Speaker 2: play basketball here. We never dreamed it could be ours

462
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 2: when they moved out. Somehow we had the faith to

463
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 2: pray a bold prayer. God made things happen that we

464
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 2: could never make happen. It's the same for you, who

465
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,360
