Speaker 5: Hi, this is Victoria. Thank you so much for downloading

34
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 5: this podcast. I believe God has amazing things in your future.

35
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 5: I hope you enjoy this message. Have you ever had

36
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 5: an opportunity presented to you and you said no, No,

37
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 5: I don't want.

38
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 4: To do that, No I can't do that.

39
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 5: Maybe you didn't think you were qualified, or maybe you

40
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 5: thought there was someone else better for the job, or

41
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 5: maybe you just didn't have the resources. You know, there's

42
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 5: numbers of reasons that we say no when certain opportunities

43
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 5: present themselves. But then have you ever done that and

44
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 5: then later got to thinking, Ugh, what I say no for?

45
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 4: I wish i'd have done that. Maybe I could have

46
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 4: done that.

47
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 5: Have you ever wrestled with the no before thinking maybe

48
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 5: I could?

49
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 4: Oh, maybe I should.

50
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,119
Speaker 5: You see, I'll never forget one time when Joel's father

51
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 5: was the pastor of the church back in the old building,

52
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 5: and we were worshiping God. It was in the middle

53
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 5: of our worship, just like we were doing today. My

54
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 5: hands were up, I was praising God. When I opened

55
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 5: my eyes, Joel's father had turned around in his seat

56
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 5: and looked at me and said, Victoria, why don't you

57
00:02:55,680 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 5: go up and do the prayer time? Well, he wasn't

58
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 5: talking about next week or the next week. He was

59
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 5: talking about the end of the song that was just

60
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 5: about over. I'm sure I looked at him because I

61
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 5: had never even remotely given him the thought that I

62
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 5: wanted to get on the platform and do the prayer time.

63
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 5: I don't even know where he got that, but I'll

64
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 5: never forget chuckling with a nervous laugh, and I said, uh, daddy, O,

65
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 5: I don't think so, you know, in his sweet gentle way.

66
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 4: He just smiled at me.

67
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 5: He turned around, and he never said anymore to me

68
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 5: during that service. You know, I remember standing there thinking

69
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 5: I didn't need to get out of here.

70
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 4: But when I got home, I was wrestling with that no.

71
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 5: I was so disappointed in myself, and really, quite frankly,

72
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 5: I was mad at myself because I thought to myself,

73
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 5: if if he thought I could do it, why do

74
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 5: I think that I can't do it? If someone has

75
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 5: faith in me, why don't I have faith in myself?

76
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 5: And I went back, and I went forth, and I

77
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 5: went back and I went forth, And as I was

78
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 5: wrestling with that, I realized that that no.

79
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 4: Just wasn't satisfactory to me.

80
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 5: So I begin to dig deep, because on the inside

81
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 5: of me, I realized there was a yes, but it

82
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 5: was buried under fear. It was buried under the pretense

83
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 5: that I could not do it. It was buried under

84
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 5: the thought why does anybody need to hear from me?

85
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 5: You see, that no was not satisfactory to me. So

86
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 5: I began to dig up my yes, and I began

87
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 5: to say, I want.

88
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 4: To do it, God, help me do it. God, I

89
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 4: want to give you my yes.

90
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,280
Speaker 5: And through that struggle, I had to make a decision.

91
00:04:57,800 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 5: Was I just gonna have one foot in and one

92
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 5: put out, or was I gonna make a firm decision

93
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 5: and say the next time he asked me, if he

94
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 5: ever does, I'm gonna prepare and.

95
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 4: I'm gonna be ready.

96
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 5: So every time I'd go to church, I'd be praising

97
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 5: with one eye opened, say.

98
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 4: Maybe not today, Lord, but not today Lord. You know

99
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,679
Speaker 4: he did ask me again, He did ask me again.

100
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 4: And you know what I did.

101
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 5: I mustard up that great, big yess and I got

102
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:36,159
Speaker 5: up and I did the prayer time. You see what

103
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 5: that yes did for me? It kicked in God's grace.

104
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 5: It caused me to begin to rely on God. I prepared,

105
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,039
Speaker 5: but then I allowed the grace of God to work

106
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 5: in me and work through me. There's a scripture that

107
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 5: says that God is working in us to will and

108
00:05:56,279 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 5: to do his good pleasure. When you realize that you

109
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,360
Speaker 5: don't have to do everything on your own, and if

110
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 5: it gets done, it's only because of your ability, when

111
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,839
Speaker 5: you realize that is not always the case, but that

112
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 5: it's God who's working in you, It's God who's preparing you.

113
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 5: If you will get into agreement with God, God can

114
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 5: do amazing things in our lives. But God needs our yes.

115
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,840
Speaker 5: He needs to hear our yes. When I think about

116
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:34,359
Speaker 5: how that yes kicked in and gave me the power

117
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 5: to be able to do that.

118
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 3: It was.

119
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 5: It was a very much of a learning experience for

120
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 5: me because see, I didn't realize at the time that

121
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,239
Speaker 5: God was up to something. But when I look back,

122
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 5: I realized that that yes was one step closer to

123
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 5: my destiny.

124
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:58,159
Speaker 4: That yes was one step closer to the next step. Now.

125
00:06:58,160 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 4: The truth is, I don't.

126
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,159
Speaker 5: Know how many times I ever got back up on

127
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 5: the platform when Daddy was there, But I'll tell you

128
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 5: what that experience gave me the courage and the boldness

129
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 5: when God asked me yes again. Listen, if you're struggling

130
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 5: with a yes today, if you're struggling between yes and

131
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 5: no when God talks to you, maybe you don't think

132
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,679
Speaker 5: you're equipped, Maybe you don't have the right resources. Maybe

133
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 5: there's a plethora of reasons that you can make excuses.

134
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 4: Can I tell you make a decision, just settle it

135
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:30,679
Speaker 4: in your mind.

136
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 5: If God wants me to do it, I'm gonna give

137
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 5: him my guests and I'm.

138
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 4: Gonna prepare and move forward.

139
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 5: Because let me tell you something, just like my father

140
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 5: in law asked me and I said no, he didn't

141
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 5: hold that no against me, and your heavenly Father is

142
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 5: not gonna hold.

143
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 4: That no against you.

144
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 5: You may have said no time and time again, but

145
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 5: I can tell you, just like my father in law,

146
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 5: God's gonna ask you again.

147
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,000
Speaker 4: He's gonna ask you again.

148
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 5: So I encourage you to make a decision to give

149
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 5: God your yes. Hold on to the promises of God.

150
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 5: Listen to what it says in tewod Corinthians one twenty.

151
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 5: It says, for no matter how many promises God has made,

152
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 5: they are yes in Christ.

153
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 4: And so through Him we speak the amen.

154
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 5: Through him who speaks the amen, who speaks the yes,

155
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 5: we speak the yes. God's promises are gonna stand forever.

156
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 5: They will remain.

157
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 4: But He is looking for us to say yes. He

158
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 4: is looking for us to.

159
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 5: Take that step of faith, to say, God, I'm all

160
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 5: in no matter what it looks like. Hey, what in

161
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 5: the world does yes look like to you today? What

162
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,839
Speaker 5: does it look like to you today? What does your

163
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 5: yes look like when you think about God? Yes, God,

164
00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 5: I am gonna forgive the people that hurt me. Yes, God, God,

165
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 5: I'm gonna trust you in this very difficult time.

166
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 4: God, I am.

167
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 5: All in with you, God, knowing that you can bring

168
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,199
Speaker 5: about favor in my situation.

169
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 4: Yes, God, I want to begin to reach out to people,

170
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 4: even if I don't feel like I have time. God,

171
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 4: I know that you can make up that time for me.

172
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 4: Maybe you just need.

173
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 5: To surrender some things in your life and say yes, God,

174
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:28,959
Speaker 5: it is time for you to work through me. I'm

175
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 5: gonna quit try to doing it on my own and God,

176
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,560
Speaker 5: I'm just gonna say yes to you. I'm gonna take

177
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 5: that step of faith God and let you open those

178
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 5: supernatural doors for me.

179
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 4: What does your yes look like today?

180
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 5: Because God is waiting on you to get into agreement

181
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 5: with him.

182
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 4: And as soon as.

183
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 5: You say yes to God, guess what the grace of

184
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:50,719
Speaker 5: God kicks in.

185
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 3: You.

186
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 5: See, you're not on your own. God doesn't want you

187
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 5: to do it on your own. God wants you to

188
00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,440
Speaker 5: do it with Him in partnership and agreement with Him.

189
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 5: And you know what, you can say yes. I think

190
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 5: about the saints of old. They wavered in their yes,

191
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 5: they wavered in their no. One day they were believers,

192
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 5: the next day they were denying Jesus. Listen, God is

193
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 5: not gonna hold your no against you, but make some

194
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 5: firm decisions to say, I am gonna trust God in this,

195
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,559
Speaker 5: no matter what it looks like, no matter how scared

196
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 5: I am, no matter how buried, that yes is in

197
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 5: my in my spirit.

198
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 4: I'm gonna dig it up. I'm gonna work it out.

199
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 4: Because the Bible talks about this.

200
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 5: It says you have to hold fast your profession of faith.

201
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 4: You have to hold fast that yes.

202
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 5: See that indicates that something is gonna try to take

203
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 5: that yes from you. And we're very well aware that

204
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 5: time tries to steal our yes. People try to steal

205
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 5: our yes. All these nose and shut doors try to

206
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 5: steal our yes. But you know what, We're gonna have

207
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 5: to step over a lot of and hold fast to

208
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 5: that yes.

209
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 4: Hold it tight.

210
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 5: See, it's not just in your ability, It's in God's

211
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 5: ability through you. It's in him opening supernatural doors. Can

212
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 5: I tell you is it gonna be easy? Absolutely not?

213
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 5: Is it worth it?

214
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 4: Absolutely it is.

215
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 5: God is a god of miracles, and he wants to

216
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 5: take you step by step, but he needs your amen,

217
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 5: He needs your agreement. Think about Noah. When God came

218
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 5: to Noah and spoke to Noah and said, Noah, I

219
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 5: want you to build an arc. Noah had no idea.

220
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 5: First off, what a boat was what an arc was,

221
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 5: because no one had seen rain. It had literally never rained.

222
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 5: The theologians said, but you know what Noah did. He

223
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:54,199
Speaker 5: said yes God. So he was fighting the odds because

224
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 5: no one had ever seen rain, and no one wanted

225
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 5: to get into agreement with his yes.

226
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,680
Speaker 4: But he said, I'm going to stay in agreement with God. Yes.

227
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 5: And he kept building that arc. It took years and years.

228
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 5: People made fun of him. They even said Noah is crazy.

229
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 5: He and his family are crazy people. But what did

230
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 5: Noah keep doing. He kept pounding the nails. He kept

231
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 5: saying yes in his obedience to God. And let me

232
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 5: tell you something. Noah's arc stands as a monument today,

233
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 5: a sign of God's goodness, a sign of God's agreement.

234
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 5: You see, we are in covenant with this great God,

235
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 5: and he wants your yes. I have a friend of

236
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 5: mine who who has a large family, many siblings, and

237
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 5: she made a decision to say yes to God in

238
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 5: a new way. And what I mean by that is

239
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 5: she was gonna let go of some of her past

240
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 5: habits and she was going to start serving God in

241
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 5: a fresh, new way because he had given her an

242
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:59,079
Speaker 5: impression to do it differently. Well, let me tell you something.

243
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 5: Her family didn't think that was so keen.

244
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 4: In fact, they.

245
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 5: Made ugly remarks to her. They literally quit inviting her

246
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 5: to certain gatherings.

247
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 4: Because she had a new commitment to God. But can

248
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 4: I tell you she stayed faithful to her commitment.

249
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 5: She held on tight to that yes even when she

250
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:22,080
Speaker 5: wasn't invited to things. She continued to be kind to

251
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,839
Speaker 5: her family, show love, and when they did advite her,

252
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 5: she showed up with all.

253
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 4: Of her blessings to them. Can I tell you today, after.

254
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 5: Years and years of holding on to that yes, staying committed,

255
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 5: making that decision even when it was tough, even when

256
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 5: it would have been easier to go back, her yes

257
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 5: stands as an anchor of hope to her family, and

258
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 5: many of them have come back to Jesus Christ because

259
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 5: of that yes.

260
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 4: Is our yes always easy?

261
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 3: No?

262
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 4: But our yes? It's always worth it When we serve

263
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 4: a mighty God. Get up every day, reconfirm your yes.

264
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 5: Yes God, I am yours. Yes God, What do you

265
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 5: want me to do today? Yes, God, I will trust you,

266
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,319
Speaker 5: I will forgive. I will take that step of faith God.

267
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,679
Speaker 5: I believe that when I get into agreement with you.

268
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,520
