The announcement came over the intercom, saying, 47 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 3: welcome to the very first totally automated commercial flight. This 48 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 3: airplane has no pilots. It is being completely controlled by 49 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 3: the most advanced computers available today.

Enjoy the flight. Enjoy the flight, 52 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:48,959 Speaker 3: all right. Hold up your Bible. Say it like you 53 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 3: mean it. This is my Bible. I am what it 54 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 3: says I am. I have what it says I have. 55 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 3: I can do what it says I can do. Today 56 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 3: I will be taught the word of God. I boldly confess. 57 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,399 Speaker 3: My mind is alert, my heart is receptive. I will 58 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 3: never be the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. 59 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 3: I want to talk to you today about the shout 60 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 3: of praise. The scripture is full of stories where when 61 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 3: God's people lifted up a shout, supernatural things took place. 62 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 3: Prison doors were opened, enemies got confused, even huge walls 63 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 3: came tumbling down, all because of a shout of praise. 64 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 3: There's something about being vocal, being expressive, demonstrating your faith. 65 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 3: It releases God's power in a greater way. And it's 66 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 3: one thing to be quiet and reverent unto the Lord. 67 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 3: That's important. We should have a respect and a reverence. 68 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 3: But there are times when being quiet is not enough. 69 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 3: It's not even enough to just pray or sing or 70 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 3: quote scriptures. The shout is what pushes you over into victory. 71 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 3: The shout is what brings the walls down. When you 72 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 3: lift up your voice and say, God, I bless you today, 73 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 3: I lift your name on high. You are good. Your 74 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 3: mercy endures forever. When God hears those shouts of praise, 75 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 3: he says to the angels, get busy, send healing, Send favor, 76 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 3: send deliverance, send supernatural breakthroughs now. I know some of 77 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 3: you are like me. You're more quiet and reserved. It's 78 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 3: not natural for you to be very expressive, very exuberant. 79 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:32,160 Speaker 2: I know. 80 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 3: I stand by Victoria during the praise in worship. She 81 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 3: is always swaying to the music, tapping her feet, She's 82 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 3: got her hands up in the air. I can hear 83 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 3: her singing with her whole heart, very expressive, so full 84 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 3: of joy. And here I'm there, quiet calm, reserved. The 85 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 3: other day she looked at me and I was in 86 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 3: deep prayer, deep meditation. She bumped me with her hips 87 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:02,280 Speaker 3: and said, come on, stiffy, lighten up. I said, you 88 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:06,359 Speaker 3: can't bump me. I'm the pastor. I'm dignified. She bumped 89 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 3: me even harder. But I'm naturally more reserved. But I've 90 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 3: learned if you want to go somewhere you've never been, 91 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 3: you've got to be willing to do something that you've 92 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 3: never done. It says in Psalm forty seven to one, 93 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 3: shout unto God with the voice of triumph. And I 94 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 3: realize that God hears us even when we whisper. But 95 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 3: when you let out a shout, you're not only announcing 96 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 3: to God. I trust you, I believe you. I know 97 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 3: you have great things in store. But that shout is 98 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 3: announcing to the enemy. Favor is coming, breakthroughs are on 99 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 3: their way, Supernatural opportunities are in my future. I know 100 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 3: I've been at a ballgame before, and in the middle 101 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 3: of the game, I'll go up to the concession stand 102 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 3: to get something to eat. While I'm standing in the line, 103 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 3: I can't see what's happening on the field. But all 104 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 3: of a sudden, I hear a loud cheer from the crowd, 105 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 3: a huge shout. The place erupts, and even though I 106 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 3: can't see it, I know something good just happened. We 107 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 3: either scored a touchdown, somebody hit a home run. But 108 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:20,799 Speaker 3: the sounds of cheering, the sounds of celebration, are declaring something. 109 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 3: It's announcing to everyone around that a great victory has 110 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 3: just taken place. It's the same way in the unseen realm. 111 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 3: When we shout unto God, we are announcing to the 112 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 3: forces of darkness that a great victory is about to 113 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 3: take place. They can't see what's happening. They don't know 114 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 3: why we're shouting. All they know is somewhere God's opening 115 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 3: up a new door. Somewhere a wall is coming down. 116 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 3: Finances are turning around, somebody's child is coming back home. 117 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 3: Somebody's health is being restored, somebody's getting the break they need. 118 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 3: Those shouts of joy not only allow God to bring 119 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 3: the victory, but it's announcing to the enemy we're coming 120 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:06,799 Speaker 3: up to a higher level. There's declarative power in a shout. 121 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 3: Psalm one talks about when we have the high praises 122 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 3: of God coming out of our mouth. That is shouts 123 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 3: of joy, shouts of praise. It says that God promises 124 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 3: he will go to war against our enemies. You may 125 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 3: be facing an enemy of sickness today, but instead of 126 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 3: being down discourage, going around complaining, you're saying, God, I 127 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 3: bless you, I praise you. I know you're still on 128 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 3: the throne. When you let out those shouts, God goes 129 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 3: to war against that sickness. Perhaps you're struggling with an addiction. 130 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 3: But instead of thinking, oh, I'll never break this, Saint Joel, 131 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 3: I'm just not disciplined enough. No, you're shouting Lord, you 132 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 3: are good. Your mercy endures forever. Those high praises coming 133 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 3: out of your mouth are what allow God to go 134 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 3: to war against that addiction. I know one time, years ago, 135 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 3: Victoria and I were involved in this business deal where 136 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 3: somebody had done us wrong. They had pulled us into 137 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 3: a big mess, and now we were having to meet 138 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 3: with the attorneys and go through the legal process. It's 139 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 3: a big waste of time and energy and money. We 140 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 3: came to the week where it was all going to 141 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 3: be resolved. We're going to have this one final meeting, 142 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 3: and the outcome was going to be determined. Early that morning, 143 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 3: we were in a parking garage downtown Houston waiting for 144 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 3: the meeting. Victoria said something that I'd never heard her 145 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 3: say before. She said, Joel, I think before we get 146 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 3: out of the car, we need to turn on some 147 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 3: praise music and just shout the victory. Well, it was 148 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 3: like six o'clock in the morning. I didn't feel like shouting. 149 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,599 Speaker 3: I was barely even awake, but we turned on the 150 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 3: Lakewood Praise CD and it just so happened. It came 151 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,599 Speaker 3: on at the end of the song we have Overcome. 152 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 3: We heard about ten or fifteen seconds, and then the 153 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 3: worship leader came on saying it's already done. We've already 154 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,559 Speaker 3: won the victory, just shouting to God. So we just 155 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:06,079 Speaker 3: joined into celebration and we said, God, we agree, we 156 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 3: praise you in advance for the victory. We believe it's 157 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 3: already done. We shout unto you with a voice of triumph. 158 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,959 Speaker 3: We had the high praises of God coming out of 159 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 3: our mouth early in the morning in that car, and 160 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 3: I know, in the natural it probably looked kind of foolish. 161 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 3: After all, we had not won the victory. We were 162 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 3: still right in the middle of the battle. But this 163 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 3: is what faith is all about. You can't wait to 164 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 3: shout after the victory. You got to learn to shout 165 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 3: before the victory. The shout is what allows God to 166 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 3: fight your battles for you. We got out of the 167 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 3: car that morning feeling ten feet tall. We knew if 168 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 3: God before us, who dare be against us? We went 169 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 3: into that meeting and the other side God at odds 170 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 3: with each other. They begin to argue among themselves. Their 171 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:58,439 Speaker 3: head attorney got so upset he even left the building. 172 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 3: What had dragged on for over three years that day 173 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 3: was totally resolved in our favor. Not only that everything 174 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,839 Speaker 3: was restored back to us. Friends, when you have the 175 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,599 Speaker 3: high praises of God coming out of your mouth, he 176 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 3: will go to war against your enemies. Proverbs twenty nine 177 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 3: six says evil people are trapped by their own wrongdoing, 178 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 3: but the righteous escape by shouting for joy. When you 179 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 3: find yourself in a situation where you feel trapped, looks 180 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 3: like there's no way out in your health, your finances, 181 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:37,719 Speaker 3: a legal circumstance, don't get down discouraged. Don't start complaining. No, 182 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 3: you have a secret weapon. Start shouting for joy. Driving 183 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 3: to work in the car by yourself. Lord, I bless 184 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,599 Speaker 3: you today, I thank you God. I say Hozanna to 185 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:52,319 Speaker 3: you in the highest. Nowadays, most people just think you're 186 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 3: talking on your cell phone, just being animated. What they 187 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 3: don't realize is you are shouting under God with the 188 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 3: voice of triumph. When God hears those shouts, he goes 189 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 3: to work arranging your escape, moving the wrong people out 190 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 3: of the way, opening up the right doors, showering down 191 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,319 Speaker 3: his favor. And I know some people think that we're 192 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,679 Speaker 3: kind of loud, and they wonder why everybody's so excited 193 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 3: at our services. Why do you cheer at the end 194 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 3: of a song. Why does it seem like a celebration 195 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:26,839 Speaker 3: of ball game. It's because we understand this principle. We 196 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 3: know when we have the high praises of God coming 197 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:33,440 Speaker 3: out of our mouth, supernatural things are happening. New doors 198 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 3: are opening, favors being released, breakthroughs are coming. God is 199 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 3: fighting our battles. Well, you say, Joel, I'm just real quiet, reserved, 200 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 3: a little more dignified than that. That's a little far out, 201 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 3: a little overboard, a little radical for me. Listen, I've 202 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 3: been in this very auditorium when the Rockets were playing basketball. 203 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 3: I had season tickets right over there on the fourth row, 204 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 3: and when the Rockets were in the playoffs about to 205 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 3: the championship, I saw the most quiet, reserved, dignified people 206 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 3: that normally just sit there and passively watch the game. 207 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 3: They were up on their feet, pumping their fist in 208 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 3: the air, yelling at the top of their lungs, acting crazy, 209 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 3: doing the macarena. I saw ladies dressed to a tea 210 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 3: so proper, normally just very quiet and reserved. They were 211 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 3: up waving their hankies, giving high fives to people they've 212 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 3: never even met. What am I saying? We're all a 213 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 3: little radical about something I've made up my mind. I'm 214 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 3: gonna be radical about my God. I'm going to let 215 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,719 Speaker 3: his high praise has come out of my mouth. I 216 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 3: know when I shout to the Lord, new doors are open, 217 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 3: barriers are coming down, healing is being released. The shout 218 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:55,079 Speaker 3: is what's sealing the deal. I know growing up, certain 219 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 3: people referred to us as holy rovers. I like what 220 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 3: somebody said. They call us holy rollers, and yes, what 221 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,199 Speaker 3: they say is true, But if they knew what we 222 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 3: were shouting about, they would be rolling. Two. I love 223 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 3: the story of Joshua, He and the people of Israel 224 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 3: who are trying to make it to their promised land. 225 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 3: But right in the middle of their path was a 226 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 3: huge obstacle, the city of Jericho. It had large walls 227 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,679 Speaker 3: all the way around it. It stood between them and 228 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 3: their promised land. They couldn't go around it. They had 229 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 3: to go through it. Between you and your destiny. There 230 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 3: will always be a Jericho, something that you cannot go around. 231 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,559 Speaker 3: There's no other route. You either have to defeat it 232 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,839 Speaker 3: or it's going to defeat you. God told Joshua to 233 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,319 Speaker 3: have the people march around the city walls for six days, 234 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 3: one time a day, and on the seventh day they 235 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 3: were to march around seven times, and they were instructed 236 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:59,959 Speaker 3: to march perfectly silent. They couldn't say a word, no time, 237 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:04,439 Speaker 3: no whispering, no complaining. Then on the seventh day, on 238 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,959 Speaker 3: the seventh time around, God said, I want you to 239 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 3: do something different. On this seventh time, I want you 240 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 3: to let out a shout of praise. I can imagine 241 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 3: on that seventh day the people were so excited. They 242 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 3: marched around once and twice and three times. The anticipation 243 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 3: is growing. They can't wait they know something big is 244 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 3: going to happen. On that seventh time, after the priest 245 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 3: blew the trumpets, the people let out this mighty shout 246 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 3: of praise at the top of their lungs, saying, Hallelujah, 247 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 3: Hosanna in the Highest Lord, We bless you so loud, 248 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 3: no doubt, it sounded like a huge airplane passing by. 249 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 3: People could hear it from miles and miles. Now as 250 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 3: they were shouting, the impossible began to happen. Those huge 251 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 3: forty five walls begin to shake and rattle, and before 252 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 3: long roll they came toum lean down. The people were 253 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 3: able to go in, take the city and eventually make 254 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 3: it to their promised land. But here's the point I 255 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 3: want you to see. The shout is what sealed the deal. 256 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 3: The shout was the final straw. Marching around the city 257 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 3: seven times that showed their faithfulness, that proved their obedience, 258 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 3: But that in itself was not enough. That was part 259 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 3: of it. But the shout was what released God's favor 260 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 3: in a greater way. The truth is, they could have 261 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 3: marched around the city silently, week after week, even year 262 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 3: after year, showing God how faithful they were, but nothing 263 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 3: would have happened. Without the shout, the walls would not 264 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 3: have come down. Could it be that there are a 265 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 3: wall still up in your life because you've missed the shout. 266 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 3: You prayed, you believed, you've stood on God's word. But 267 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 3: now it's time for your shout. God is saying you 268 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 3: are coming in to your seventh day. You're about to 269 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 3: enter into your seventh lap, the victory lap. You've been faithful, 270 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 3: you've developed your character. Now it's time to come into 271 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 3: your promised land. And in the coming days, as you 272 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 3: have the high praises of God coming out of your mouth, 273 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 3: you need to get ready. You're gonna start seeing walls 274 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 3: come down. Bondages are going to be broken, Supernatural doors 275 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 3: are gonna open, Enemies are gonna be defeated. Chains of 276 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 3: addictions are going to be loosed, Limitations are gonna be canceled. 277 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 3: Increase is gonna come in extraordinary ways. I want you 278 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 3: to imagine you're on the seventh Day. You're about to 279 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 3: come into that seventh lap, the victory lap. God is saying, 280 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 3: it's your time to rise to a new level. It's 281 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 3: your time to see favor in a new way. It's 282 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 3: your time to go beyond barriers of the past. It's 283 00:16:55,920 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 3: your time for divine connections. It's your time for supernatural breakthroughs. 284 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 3: Why don't we just take ten seconds and seal the deal. 285 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 3: Let's let up a shout of praise just to see them. Okay, okay, okay, 286 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:19,439 Speaker 3: all right. I knew you couldn't keep it to ten seconds. 287 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 3: I know people are flipping through the channels right now. 288 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,959 Speaker 3: When they see you shouting, celebrating, They think, what am 289 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:32,400 Speaker 3: I watching? Did Peyton Manning just throw another touchdown? Did 290 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 3: Tiger Woods just clench the Masters? Did Lebron James just 291 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 3: did another game winning shot? They look a little closer 292 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 3: and say, no, it's just those crazy people at Lakewood. 293 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 3: They're always shouting about something. Here's why we're shouting. We 294 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 3: know walls are coming down, somebody's child is coming back home. 295 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 3: Somebody's marriage is being restored. Somebody's about to see a 296 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 3: business take off. Somebody's about to meet the man or 297 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 3: woman of their dreams. Somebody's about to see their health restored. 298 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,920 Speaker 3: Somebody's about to make it into their promised land. The 299 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,360 Speaker 3: shout is what releases God's favor in a greater way. 300 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 3: It doesn't take you must to make y'all shout. 301 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:20,479 Speaker 1: Now. 302 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 3: Listen, some of you have marched around your city walls 303 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,879 Speaker 3: four hundred and twenty two times. You're wondering when God's 304 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,159 Speaker 3: ever going to do something. But God's waiting on you 305 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 3: for the shout. You don't need to march around another time. 306 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 3: You need to start declaring God's goodness in a greater 307 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 3: way when you get up every morning. Just imagine you're 308 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 3: on the seventh day and you're about to enter into 309 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 3: your victory. Laugh, dare to vocalize it. God, I bless 310 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 3: you today, I thank you today, I honor you today. 311 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 3: Those shouts not only allow God to bring the victory, 312 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 3: but you're announcing to the enemy this is my time. 313 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 3: Sickness cannot stay. I will not live a depressed, defeated life. 314 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 3: I will not go around unfulfilled. I will not be 315 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,440 Speaker 3: bound by these addictions. I Am coming in to my 316 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 3: promised land. We have a cleaning product here in the 317 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 3: States called a shout. It's a stain remover. You get 318 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 3: something on your shirt or something on the carpet, you 319 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 3: can spray that shout on it and it'll help remove it. 320 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 3: I remember the commercial they had for Shout when I 321 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 3: was growing up. It showed this little boy playing in 322 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 3: the backyard and he falls in the mud and gets 323 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 3: his jeans all dirty. The mom is looking out the 324 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,160 Speaker 3: kitchen window and she shakes her head, and the announcer 325 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 3: says to the mother, what are you gonna do now 326 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 3: that little Johnny got his jeans stained? The mom smiles 327 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 3: and says, I'm gonna shout it out. It shows the 328 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 3: father working on his car and he gets some grease 329 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 3: on his T shirt. The announcer asks the mom the 330 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 3: same thing, what are you gonna do this time she 331 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,639 Speaker 3: gets the bottle of shouting. She looks in the camera 332 00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 3: and says, I'm not worried. I'm gonna shout it out. Really, 333 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 3: there's some truth to that statement. When we face barriers 334 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 3: in life, when the financial situation looks impossible, when the 335 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 3: medical report says no way, when you encounter a jericho 336 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,680 Speaker 3: on your way to your promised land. Instead of getting 337 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 3: discouraged thinking, oh, these walls are too big, they're too strong, 338 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 3: they're never gonna come down. Now, let's learn to do 339 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 3: like the lady in the TV commercial and say, you 340 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,400 Speaker 3: know what, I know a secret. I can shout it out. 341 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 3: I'm gonna kick my praise into a new gear. What 342 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 3: are you gonna do if you get a bad medical report? 343 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 3: Shout it out, declare God's goodness in a greater way. 344 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 3: What are you gonna do if somebody cuts you off 345 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 3: in traffic? Don't cuss them out, shout it out God, 346 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 3: I bless you anyway. What are you gonna do if 347 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 3: you get overlooked for a promotion that you deserve? Shout 348 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,400 Speaker 3: it out God. I'm not working under man, I'm working 349 00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 3: under you. I bless you anyway. That's what it says 350 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,719 Speaker 3: the Psalm fifty nine. The Psawmist said, my enemies come 351 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 3: against me like vicious dogs, trying to destroy me. But 352 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 3: as for me, I will shout for joy for you 353 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 3: or my refuge, my place of safety. Notice, in our 354 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 3: times of difficulty, we're not supposed to get discouraged. Don't 355 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:22,400 Speaker 3: go around complaining talking about your problems. If you want 356 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 3: to activate God's power in a greater way, you've got 357 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 3: to do like the Psawmist and learn to shout for 358 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 3: joy even when it looks bad all around you. Just 359 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,680 Speaker 3: lift your head towards the heavens and say, God, I 360 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,719 Speaker 3: bless you today. I know you're still on the throne, 361 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 3: I say Hosanna to you in the highest. If you 362 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,919 Speaker 3: are to suffer some kind of setback in the natural, 363 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 3: you're gonna want to get discouraged. Self pity will try 364 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 3: to set in. That's when you have to dig your 365 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 3: heels in and say, no, I'm gonna offer to God 366 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 3: the sacrifice of praise. And I'm not saying that this 367 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 3: is some magic formula. If you shout one time, everything's 368 00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 3: gonna go away. But no, I am saying if you'll 369 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 3: learn to magnify God and not your problems, you'll not 370 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 3: only enjoy life more. But that's what allows God to 371 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 3: turn negative situations around, and at the right time on 372 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 3: your seventh day, on that seventh trip around, the shout 373 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 3: is what helps to bring the walls down. I think 374 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 3: about Jehasiphat in Second Chronicles, chapter twenty. He received word 375 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 3: that three major armies were surrounding him and the people 376 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 3: of Judah. They were quickly closing in and about to attack. 377 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 3: The people of Judah were greatly outnumbered. King Jehosaphat didn't 378 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 3: know what to do, so he called them altogether. They 379 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 3: got on their knees and begin to pray. Soon the 380 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 3: word of the Lord came to them saying, don't worry. 381 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:48,120 Speaker 3: This battle is not yours. The battle is the Lord's. 382 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,439 Speaker 3: When the people of Judah heard the good news, they 383 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 3: did something very important. I believe it was one of 384 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,159 Speaker 3: the keys to see in the promise come to fulfillment. 385 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 3: Right in the middle of that trouble, surrounded by enemies, 386 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 3: looked like there was no way out in the natural. 387 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 3: What did they do? Get depressed, complained, run and hide? 388 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 3: Know the scripture says, they begin to shout praises to 389 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 3: God at the top of their lungs. Don't you know 390 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:20,119 Speaker 3: that looked kind of foolish. Here they were celebrating like 391 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 3: they had already won the victory. But the fact is 392 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 3: they were still surrounded by powerful enemies. Nothing had changed, 393 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 3: nothing was different. I'm sure some people look from the 394 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 3: outside and thought, those people are crazy. Why are they shouting? 395 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 3: Why are they celebrating? Don't they know they're about to 396 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 3: be wiped out? Don't they know their days are numbered? 397 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 3: Know what those people didn't realize was the shout activates 398 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 3: God's power. The shout brings confusion to the enemy. The 399 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 3: shout releases God's favor. The shout is what helps bring 400 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 3: the deliverance. Really, it's the same way today. When people 401 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 3: see us shouting, seeing celebrating God's goodness, they think, what's 402 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 3: wrong with those people at Lakewood. Haven't they read the 403 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 3: news lately? Didn't they see the medical report. Haven't they 404 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 3: seen what their child's been doing. They're acting like they're 405 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 3: gonna prosper in spite of the economy. They're acting like 406 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,199 Speaker 3: they're gonna get well in spite of the medical report. 407 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 3: They're acting like they've already won the battle. See, most 408 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 3: people only shout after the victory. We better learn to 409 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 3: shout before the victory. The scripture says, as soon as 410 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 3: they started shouting, something great happened. Notice it didn't say 411 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 3: as soon as they prayed, as soon as they believed, 412 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 3: as soon as they started fighting. No, the shout was 413 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 3: the catalyst. The shout was what lit the fire. As 414 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 3: soon as they started shouting, God sent confusion to the 415 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 3: three enemy armies. They begin to fight among themselves, and 416 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,120 Speaker 3: when it was all said and done, they had destroyed 417 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 3: each other. The people of Judah didn't have to lift 418 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 3: up a sword. They just went in and gathered up 419 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:08,439 Speaker 3: the spoils. And I realized that when we pray, things happen. 420 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 3: When we stay faithful, things happen. When we are a 421 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 3: blessing to others, things happen. But when we lift up 422 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 3: a shout of praise, when we vocalize our thanksgiving, when 423 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:24,120 Speaker 3: we bless the Lord with our whole hearts, those shouts 424 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 3: cause God to release his power in a supersized way. 425 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,399 Speaker 3: It's like God shifts everything into a higher gear. The 426 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 3: turbo boosters kick in. I don't know about you, but 427 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:40,640 Speaker 3: I need God's favor in supersized ways. I need God's blessings, 428 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:45,879 Speaker 3: his wisdom in extraordinary ways. Now I've learned shouts of praise, 429 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 3: shouts of joy. They're the power boosters that can thrust 430 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 3: you to a new level. It's interesting. In the Old 431 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:57,200 Speaker 3: Testament God used the phrase many times, be of good courage, 432 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,400 Speaker 3: But in the New Testament, in those translations you never 433 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 3: read be of good courage. God changed the phrasing. He 434 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:10,440 Speaker 3: now says be of good cheer. Cheer is an action word, 435 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 3: something that we have to do. When I go to 436 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 3: a ball game and see a cheerleader, one thing I 437 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 3: know is a cheerleader is not quiet. They are very vocal, 438 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 3: very loud. They're always shouting, cheering their team on. It's funny. 439 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 3: Their team can be behind forty to nothing, only a 440 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,959 Speaker 3: minute left in the game, no possible way for them 441 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 3: to win, yet they're still on the sideline shouting to 442 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 3: the top of their LANs the I C t oh 443 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 3: or why we have the victory. I have never once 444 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 3: heard a cheerleader saying l oh s e r s 445 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 3: we are losers. No matter how bad it gets, no 446 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 3: matter how far behind the team falls, they just keep 447 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 3: shouting the victory. That's what it means to be of good, 448 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:04,479 Speaker 3: just like that cheerleader. It doesn't matter if the medical 449 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 3: report says you only have six weeks to live, like 450 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 3: it did for my mother in nineteen eighty one. It 451 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 3: doesn't matter if it looks impossible for you to ever 452 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,679 Speaker 3: get out of debt. Doesn't matter if all the odds 453 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 3: are against you, every door has closed. That's when you 454 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 3: have to dig your heels in and declare it by 455 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 3: faith the ict R y Father, thank you that I 456 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 3: have the victory. I praise you. I shout unto you 457 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 3: with the voice of trial. As soon as you start shouting, 458 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 3: just like God did for the people of Judah in 459 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 3: the unseen realm, things begin to change in your favor. 460 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 3: I know right now some of you are in the 461 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:48,640 Speaker 3: midst of difficulty. You feel like Jehasafat, You're surrounded by troubles, 462 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 3: looks like there's no way out, or like Joshua, You've 463 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 3: got a big barrier in your path. But God is 464 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 3: saying to you what he said to them. The battle 465 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 3: is not yours. The battle is the Lord. But you've 466 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 3: got to do your part and activate God's power through 467 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:08,119 Speaker 3: your shouts of praise. And it's one thing to shout 468 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:11,160 Speaker 3: by yourself in your car, in the shower. That's good, 469 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 3: that's important. But when thousands of us come together and 470 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 3: let out a corporate shout of praise, I believe that 471 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:22,400 Speaker 3: not only intensifies God's power, but the forces of darkness 472 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 3: have to run and hide. And in just a moment, 473 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 3: I want us to let out another shout that's gonna 474 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 3: reverberate down through the unseen realm. Here's what's gonna happen 475 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 3: when we shout. Get this down in your spirit, see 476 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 3: it through your eyes of faith. Walls are gonna come down, 477 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:43,479 Speaker 3: bondages are going to be broken, Depression cannot stay. Healing 478 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 3: is gonna be released, Relationships will be restored, chains will 479 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 3: be broken. Negative situations are going to turn around. Favor 480 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 3: is going to be poured out. Something is about to 481 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 3: break loose in the unseen realm. When we let out 482 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 3: this shout of raise, Are you ready? We're gonna do it. 483 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 3: On three, We're gonna shout unto God with a voice 484 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 3: of triumph. One, two, three, Come on, let out a 485 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 3: shout a pray today. 486 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 5: Thank you for listening to the joel Ostine podcast.
