Speaker 2: Hi, this is Joel and Victoria. Thanks for listening to
Speaker 2: our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry.
Speaker 1: If you enjoy today's message, why don't you be a
Speaker 1: blessing and share it with a friend.
Speaker 2: We appreciate you and pray for God's very best in
Speaker 2: your life. Well, God bless you. It's always a joy
Speaker 2: to come into your homes, and if you're ever in
Speaker 2: our area, please stop by and be a part of
Speaker 2: one of our services. I promise you we'll make you
Speaker 2: feel right at home. But thanks so much for tuning in,
Speaker 2: and thank you again for coming out. I like to
Speaker 2: start with something funny, and I heard about this elderly couple.
Speaker 2: They were sitting in a swing celebrating their fiftieth wedding anniversary.
Speaker 2: Feeling romantic, the husband said to his wife, Oh, dear,
Speaker 2: our love is tried and true. His wife had difficulty
Speaker 2: hearing it and ask him to repeat it. He said
Speaker 2: it louder, I said our love is tried and true.
Speaker 2: She still couldn't hear him, said what would you? Please
Speaker 2: speak up? Frustrated he shouted, I said our love is
Speaker 2: tried and true. She said, well, fine, I'm sick of
Speaker 2: you too. Hold up your Bible. Why is that funny
Speaker 2: to me? Hold up your bible? Say it like you
Speaker 2: mean it. This is my Bible. I am what it
Speaker 2: says I am. I have what it says I have.
Speaker 2: I can do what it says I can do. Today
Speaker 2: I will be taught the word of God. I boldly confess.
Speaker 2: My mind is alert, my heart is receptive. I will
Speaker 2: never be the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you.
Speaker 2: I want to talk to you today about reprogramming your mind.
Speaker 2: Our mind is like a computer. How we program it
Speaker 2: is the way it's going to function. You can have
Speaker 2: the most powerful computer made, the latest, fastest, holds the
Speaker 2: most memory, but if you put the wrong software in it,
Speaker 2: it's not going to function like it was designed. And
Speaker 2: we've all had to deal with these computer viruses. They
Speaker 2: can get into a perfectly good computer and start to
Speaker 2: contaminate the software. Before long, the computer is slowed, you
Speaker 2: can't access your files. All these problems occur not because
Speaker 2: it's defective, it's poorly made. No, the hardware is fine.
Speaker 2: It's because somebody we programmed the software somehow the insides
Speaker 2: got messed up. Now the software is contaminated in the
Speaker 2: same way. When God created you, he stepped back and said,
Speaker 2: another masterpiece. Your hardware is perfect. You're the right size,
Speaker 2: the right nationality, you have the right gifts. Not only that,
Speaker 2: God put the right software in you. From the very beginning.
Speaker 2: He programmed you to be victorious, healthy, strong, creative. Your
Speaker 2: original software says you can do all things through Christ.
Speaker 2: He programmed whatever you touch will prosper and succeed. He
Speaker 2: programmed the head and not the tail, lend and not borrow,
Speaker 2: victor and not victim. You were programmed to live in abundant, victorious,
Speaker 2: faith filled life. That's how your creator designs you. But
Speaker 2: the reason we don't always experience this abundant life is
Speaker 2: we've allowed viruses to contaminate our software. We think I'll
Speaker 2: never be successful, I'm not that talented. I'll never break
Speaker 2: this addiction. I've had it too long. I'm slow, clumsy, unattractive.
Speaker 2: Nothing good is in my future. Because our software is infected.
Speaker 2: We go around low self esteem, negative, not believing for
Speaker 2: dreams to come to pass, not expecting problems to turn around.
Speaker 2: Here's the good news. There is nothing wrong with you.
Speaker 2: Like that computer. You're not a mistake, you're not faulty.
Speaker 2: The problem is your software. You've got to get rid
Speaker 2: of the viruses. All through the day, dwell on what
Speaker 2: your creator says about you. I'm blessed, I'm strong, I'm healthy,
Speaker 2: I'm confident, I'm attractive, I'm valuable, i am victorious. You've
Speaker 2: got to get back to your original software. If your
Speaker 2: thinking is limited, your life will be limited. One of
Speaker 2: the best things we can learn to do is hit
Speaker 2: the delete button when negative, discouraging thoughts come trying to
Speaker 2: contaminate your software. Just hit delete. That thought says you've
Speaker 2: seen your best days. It's all downhill from here. Recognize
Speaker 2: that's a virus trying to keep you from your destiny.
Speaker 2: It's real simple. Delete, not dwelling on that my software says,
Speaker 2: the path of the righteous gets brighter and brighter. Well,
Speaker 2: you'll never get well. You saw the medical report. Delete.
Speaker 2: God is restoring health back into me. The number of
Speaker 2: my days he will fulfill. I will live and not die.
Speaker 2: You may hear you'll never accompass your dreams. You're not
Speaker 2: that talented. You don't have what it takes. Delete, Delete, Delete,
Speaker 2: I am fearfully and wonderfully made. I have the favor
Speaker 2: of God. Whatever I touch prospers and succeeds. Perhaps you'll
Speaker 2: hear you'll never break that addiction. Your father was an alcoholic,
Speaker 2: and you'll be one too. Delete. No weapon formed against
Speaker 2: me will prosper. Whom the sun sets free is free, indeed,
Speaker 2: and I am free. If you're going to reach your
Speaker 2: highest potential, you've got to get good at hitting the
Speaker 2: delete button. When I stepped up to pasture the church,
Speaker 2: every thought told me, you can't do this, Joel. You
Speaker 2: don't know how to minister. You're too young, you don't
Speaker 2: have the experience. Nobody's going to come. Would have been
Speaker 2: easy to let that virus take root and keep me
Speaker 2: from my destiny. I did what I'm asking you to do.
Speaker 2: I kept hitting the delete button. You can't do it. Delete,
Speaker 2: you're too young. Delete. Nobody's gonna come. Delete. You don't
Speaker 2: have the experience. Deleite, it's not gonna work out. Delete.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't be standing here if I wasn't an expert
Speaker 2: at hitting the delete button. One Sunday, right after I
Speaker 2: first got started, I overheard two ladies talking in the
Speaker 2: lobby after the service about me. One said he's not
Speaker 2: as good as his father. The other answered, yeah, I
Speaker 2: don't think he's going to make it. The enemy will
Speaker 2: use people to try to contaminate your software. I was
Speaker 2: already insecure, intimidated, didn't think I could do it. When
Speaker 2: I heard that. My first thought was to panic. My
Speaker 2: worst fears had come true. But then something rolls up
Speaker 2: on the inside. God gives your grace for every season.
Speaker 2: He arms you with strength for every battle. I thought
Speaker 2: to myself, those two ladies, they don't determine my destiny.
Speaker 2: They didn't call me, they didn't equip me, they didn't
Speaker 2: anoint me. And more than anything else, they can't stop me.
Speaker 2: They don't have the final say. God has the final say.
Speaker 2: He said, I'm well able. I can do all things
Speaker 2: through Christ. I am strong in the Lord. Every time
Speaker 2: I heard their voice delete no thanks now, dwelling on that,
Speaker 2: it came back again and again and again. I just
Speaker 2: kept hitting the delete button. The scripture tells us to
Speaker 2: guard our mind. You control the doorway to what you
Speaker 2: allow in. You can dwell on every negative thought, every
Speaker 2: derogatory comment, or you can choose to delete it and
Speaker 2: dwell on what God says about you. If I would
Speaker 2: have let what those two ladies said play over and over,
Speaker 2: they would have contamidated my confidence, contamidated my self esteem,
Speaker 2: contamidated my future. Some of you would go to a
Speaker 2: new level if you would just start hitting the delete button.
Speaker 2: Quit dwelling on every negative thought that comes to your mind.
Speaker 2: That's the enemy trying to contaminate your software. If he
Speaker 2: can control your thinking, he can control your whole life.
Speaker 2: If that thought is negative, discouraging, pushing you down, don't
Speaker 2: dwell on it. Deleted. Pay attention to what you're thinking.
Speaker 2: If you go around thinking that you're not talented, then
Speaker 2: you'll never have the confidence to step into your destiny.
Speaker 2: If you think you're unattractive, you'll never meet the people
Speaker 2: you were supposed to meet. If you think you can't
Speaker 2: break the addiction, then you can't. If you think you've
Speaker 2: reached your limits than you have, it's not because you
Speaker 2: can't go further. You've just convinced yourself that you can't.
Speaker 2: The good news is it's not too late. You can
Speaker 2: still become everything God created you to be. Here's the
Speaker 2: key to clear out all the negative things people have
Speaker 2: said about you. You are not who people say you are,
Speaker 2: you are who God says you are. Clear Out what
Speaker 2: the coach, the teacher said about you. You're too small,
Speaker 2: you don't have what it takes. Deleted. Quit dwelling on
Speaker 2: that you're the right size. You have exactly what you
Speaker 2: need for the race that's been designed for you. Clear
Speaker 2: out what the counselor said. You're just a C student.
Speaker 2: You're not college material. Deleted. You're an a student. You
Speaker 2: have seeds of greatness. Clear out what the ex boyfriend,
Speaker 2: the ex spouse said. You're not attractive, You're not good
Speaker 2: enough for me. Deleted. You're a masterpiece, want of a kind, beautiful, attractive,
Speaker 2: a prize possession. You may have to clear out what
Speaker 2: a parent said, that person that raised you. You're so undisciplined,
Speaker 2: you're never going to dime out to much. You can't
Speaker 2: do anything right. Deleted. You are desperate and to do
Speaker 2: great things. You're destined to leave your mark on this generation.
Speaker 2: I read a report about children that had been bullied
Speaker 2: in school. It talked about how years later those negative
Speaker 2: words were still having an effect on many of them.
Speaker 2: They interviewed this one man. He was in his forties
Speaker 2: and he looked to be a bright, intelligent man, but
Speaker 2: he had not been able to hold down a good job,
Speaker 2: struggled in his relationships, couldn't seem to get on course.
Speaker 2: He told how as a child he was overweight, he
Speaker 2: was chubby. Some of the other children made fun of
Speaker 2: him and called him names, things like loser, failure. He
Speaker 2: made the mistake of letting those words take root. Now
Speaker 2: they were keeping him in mediocrity. When somebody calls you
Speaker 2: something either good or bad. That seed is planted in
Speaker 2: your soil. Now you get to determine whether or not
Speaker 2: that seed takes root and grows. When you dwell on
Speaker 2: what was said, you were watering the seed. You're giving
Speaker 2: it a right to become a reality. That's why it's
Speaker 2: so important that we're disciplined in our thought life. It's
Speaker 2: great when people tell you you're blessed, you're talented, you're
Speaker 2: going to do great things. Water those seeds, meditate on
Speaker 2: those throughout the day. That's what you want to become
Speaker 2: a reality. But too often the mistake we make is
Speaker 2: we water the wrong seeds. Those two ladies that said
Speaker 2: I wasn't as good as my father, if I would
Speaker 2: have watered that seed, I would have never gotten off
Speaker 2: the ground. And the truth is it wouldn't have been
Speaker 2: their fault. They can't make a seed take root in me.
Speaker 2: All they can do is sow the seed. You have
Speaker 2: complete control over what seeds are going to take root
Speaker 2: and grow in your own soil. Now, a lot of
Speaker 2: times we blame others. Well, they were talking about me.
Speaker 2: They tried to make me look bad, they were criticizing me. No,
Speaker 2: let them talk all they want. You control your own soil.
Speaker 2: Don't dwell on the negative, don't replay what they said
Speaker 2: over and over. Guard your mind. Those are viruses trying
Speaker 2: to infiltrate your software. Joshua will put it this way.
Speaker 2: If you will meditate on what God says about you
Speaker 2: day and night, then you will have good success and
Speaker 2: prosper in everything you do. When your mind is filled
Speaker 2: with thoughts of faith, thought hope, thoughts of victory, that's
Speaker 2: what's going to become a reality. That man in his
Speaker 2: forties that was still shruggling, You know why he let
Speaker 2: those derogatory comments play over and over every time he
Speaker 2: thought about it. He was watering that seed year after year,
Speaker 2: and sad to say, but it became a reality. How
Speaker 2: different would his life be if he had just learned
Speaker 2: to hit the delete button, said a constantly play in
Speaker 2: the negative. What if he'd have gone around thinking I'm
Speaker 2: a masterpiece, I'm one of a kind, I'm talented, I've
Speaker 2: got seeds of greatness. It would be a whole different story.
Speaker 2: Somebody may have spoken negative words over you. Deleted. People
Speaker 2: don't determine your destiny. God determines your destiny. That's why
Speaker 2: we start off every message by saying, I am who
Speaker 2: God says I am. We're saying, in effect, i am
Speaker 2: not who my history teacher says I am. I'm not
Speaker 2: who my ex spouse says I am. I am not
Speaker 2: who the critics say I am. I am who God
Speaker 2: says I am. I like to take it a step further.
Speaker 2: Not only I am who God says I am, but
Speaker 2: I can do what God says I can do. That
Speaker 2: means we know we've been programmed for victory. We've been
Speaker 2: programmed to reign in life. We've been programmed to overcome obstacles.
Speaker 2: Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord
Speaker 2: delivers us out of them all. We will accomplish our dreams.
Speaker 2: We will meet the right people, we will step into
Speaker 2: the fullness of our destinies. When you think like that,
Speaker 2: all the forces of darkness cannot stop you. Friends, the
Speaker 2: real battle is taking place in your mind. If you're
Speaker 2: defeated in your thoughts, you've already lost. You've got to
Speaker 2: get rid of the viruses. If you will get back
Speaker 2: to your original software put in you by your creator,
Speaker 2: you'll go places that you've never dreamed. It's interesting how
Speaker 2: little children start off so excited about life. They've got
Speaker 2: big dreams. They're going to become a scientist, an astronaut,
Speaker 2: a singer, a teacher, a ballplayer, even the president. They're
Speaker 2: not intimidated, they're not insecure. They believe they can do anything.
Speaker 2: It's because they just came from their creator. Their thinking
Speaker 2: has not been contaminated. They can still feel the seeds
Speaker 2: of greatness. But too often, over time they start to
Speaker 2: get reprogrammed. Somebody tells them what they can't become, what
Speaker 2: they can do. Little by little, their environment starts to
Speaker 2: squeeze them down. A coach, a teacher says, hey, you're
Speaker 2: not good enough, you're too small. Their self esteem goes down.
Speaker 2: They see somebody more attractive and they start to feel inferior.
Speaker 2: All these things begin to distort who they really are.
Speaker 2: Before long, instead of dreaming big and believing possibility thoughts,
Speaker 2: they think, I'll never do anything great. I'm not that talented,
Speaker 2: I'm just average. When we find ourselves stuck in these ruts,
Speaker 2: not believing we can rise any higher, we need to
Speaker 2: ask why do I think this way? Who programmed me
Speaker 2: to think that I'm average? Who programmed me to give
Speaker 2: up on my dreams? Who programmed me to think I
Speaker 2: can't lose this weight, I can't break this addiction. I've
Speaker 2: gone as far as I can. Where did those thoughts
Speaker 2: come from? Could it be that you have accepted a
Speaker 2: wrong mindset because of the environment you were raised in,
Speaker 2: the people that you were around. Just because it seems
Speaker 2: normal to you doesn't mean that it's necessarily normal. Sometimes
Speaker 2: we learn to function in our dysfunction. Maybe everybody you
Speaker 2: grew up with was negative, where you're not supposed to
Speaker 2: be negative. That's not normal. Maybe your friends didn't have
Speaker 2: big dreams, they didn't do anything great in life, Well,
Speaker 2: that's not okay for you. That's not normal. Just because
Speaker 2: family members had addictions bad habits, don't make the mistake
Speaker 2: of thinking that's okay for you to live that way.
Speaker 2: Those are viruses that have been passed down that keep
Speaker 2: infiltrating our thinking. Listen, God created you to go further,
Speaker 2: to be confident, to be free, to be healthy, positive, happy.
Speaker 2: You have greatness on the inside. Now it starts by
Speaker 2: reprogramming your thinking. I saw a story about this dog,
Speaker 2: a German shepherd. She was pregnant with puppies. One day,
Speaker 2: she was walking across the street and got hit by
Speaker 2: a car. Both of her back legs were broken. She
Speaker 2: was able to drag herself off the street and back
Speaker 2: to her house. As the weeks went by, she began
Speaker 2: to slowly recover. Her legs finally healed, but because they
Speaker 2: weren't properly reset, when she walked, all she could do
Speaker 2: was drag her back legs. She couldn't walk properly, her
Speaker 2: joints had been messed up. Eventually she had her puppies.
Speaker 2: They seemed to be healthy and whole, but a few
Speaker 2: weeks later, when they started walking, just like their mother,
Speaker 2: they dragged their back legs. The owner was amazed. He
Speaker 2: thought maybe they had been injured in the accident as well.
Speaker 2: Took them to the veterinarian to have them checked out.
Speaker 2: The doctor discovered there was nothing wrong with their back legs.
Speaker 2: They were perfectly healthy. Those puppies were simply copying their mother.
Speaker 2: That's all. They'd seemed modeled in their mind. That's the
Speaker 2: way they were supposed to walk. That's what's happened to
Speaker 2: many of us, what we saw modeled growing up. The
Speaker 2: people that raised us. They were good people. They were
Speaker 2: doing their best, but in some way, they were dragging
Speaker 2: their back legs. They were negative discouraged. Now we live
Speaker 2: negative discouraged. They had addictions, low self esteem. Now we
Speaker 2: struggle in those same areas. Or maybe they made poor
Speaker 2: choices in relationships. God involved with the wrong people. Now
Speaker 2: we're dealing with the same issues we saw them, except mediocrity.
Speaker 2: Now mediocrity has become normal to us. The good news,
Speaker 2: Just like those puppies, there is nothing wrong with your
Speaker 2: back legs. Those are simply wrong mindsets that you've developed.
Speaker 2: As you get your thinking straightened out, your legs will
Speaker 2: straighten out. God didn't make you faulty. He didn't create
Speaker 2: you subpar. He created you in his image. You are
Speaker 2: his masterpiece, Crowned with favor, equipped with talent gifts, you
Speaker 2: are destined to live a great life, healthy, abundant, happy,
Speaker 2: faith filled. Now, don't go around dragging your back legs.
Speaker 2: You are not supposed to go through life inferior, low
Speaker 2: self esteem, addicted, little goals, little dreams. That's not who
Speaker 2: you are. Start reprogramming your mind as the head and
Speaker 2: not the tail. Program it with excellence, not mediocrity. Program
Speaker 2: it with abundance, not lack and poverty. Program it with freedom,
Speaker 2: not addictions. This is what my father did. He grew
Speaker 2: up in a very poor environment. His parents lost everything
Speaker 2: during the Great Depression. He had no money, no education,
Speaker 2: no future to speak of. He had been programmed with poverty, defeat, mediocrity.
Speaker 2: He could have settled there, that's all he had seen. Thought, Hey,
Speaker 2: this is just my lot in life. We're just poor,
Speaker 2: defeated people. But it's seventeen years old. When he gave
Speaker 2: his life to Christ, he started reprogramming his thinking. Deep down,
Speaker 2: something said, you were made for more than this. You're
Speaker 2: not supposed to constantly struggle to barely make it through life.
Speaker 2: He could feel those seeds of greatness stirring on the inside.
Speaker 2: His attitude was this may be where I am, but
Speaker 2: this is not who I am. I may be in defeat,
Speaker 2: but I am not defeated. I'm a child of the
Speaker 2: most High God. Day after day, he kept hitting the
Speaker 2: delete button. Thought told him, you have no future. Delete.
Speaker 2: God's plans for me are for good. To give me
Speaker 2: a future and a hope. You have no money. Delete,
Speaker 2: I'm blessed. Whatever I touch prospers. You have no education.
Speaker 2: You'll never get out of here. It's impossible. Delete, de lead, delete.
Speaker 2: God is making a way where I don't see away.
Speaker 2: He's opening doors that no man can shut. He's bringing
Speaker 2: the right people across my path. I will step into
Speaker 2: the fullness of my destiny. He reprogrammed his thinking with
Speaker 2: thoughts of faith, though hope, thoughts of victory. That's how
Speaker 2: he rows up out of that poverty. Set a new
Speaker 2: standard for our family. You may have been raised in
Speaker 2: a limited environment. All you saw modeled was strife, addictions, conflict,
Speaker 2: low self esteem, mediocrity. Don't let that set the limits
Speaker 2: for your life. Don't go around dragging your back legs.
Speaker 2: God wants you to go further now. It starts by
Speaker 2: getting rid of the viruses. Hit the delete button. The
Speaker 2: thought tells you you've gone as far as you can.
Speaker 2: Delete you'll never get well. Delete, You'll always be addicted. Delete.
Speaker 2: This is as good as it gets. Delete. If you'll
Speaker 2: get good at hitting the delete button, you will break
Speaker 2: out a bondage and you will step into freedom. You
Speaker 2: will break out of lack and poverty and step into abundance.
Speaker 2: You will break out of mediocrity and step up to excellence.
Speaker 2: This is a new day. Strongholds are coming down. Wrong,
Speaker 2: mindsets are being broken. Viruses are being cleared out. Get
Speaker 2: ready for God to do something new. Get ready to
Speaker 2: see his goodness in amazing ways. Well, Joel, this sounds encouraging,
Speaker 2: but I don't know. All the experts say I'll never
Speaker 2: get well. The experts say I'll never get out of death.
Speaker 2: The experts tell me I've gone as far as my
Speaker 2: education allows. This is as good as it gets. I
Speaker 2: say this respectfully, But the experts can be wrong. The
Speaker 2: experts told us we would never have this building, but
Speaker 2: here we are today. The experts told my mother that
Speaker 2: she had a few weeks to live, but thirty three
Speaker 2: years later, she's still alive in healthy me. The experts
Speaker 2: told us Lakewood would never make it without my father,
Speaker 2: but we're doing pretty good. I read about a bumblebee.
Speaker 2: According to all the laws of aerodynamics, a bumblebee should
Speaker 2: not be able to fly. Its wingspan is too small
Speaker 2: for the size of its body. It can't get enough left.
Speaker 2: But here's the key. Nobody told the bumblebee. It didn't
Speaker 2: get the memo. No experts were able to talk it
Speaker 2: out of it. The bumblebee felt its wings on its side,
Speaker 2: and something in its DNA said, I'm supposed to fly.
Speaker 2: I'm not made to just crawl around on the ground.
Speaker 2: It didn't go check with the experts. It didn't read
Speaker 2: the latest engineering report. It just did what was natural
Speaker 2: and started flapping its wings took off up into the air.
Speaker 2: If that bumblebee would have been able to read the
Speaker 2: negative reports, would have been able to listen to the naysayers,
Speaker 2: it would have never gotten off the ground. It starts
Speaker 2: in our thinking. If you don't think you can be successful,
Speaker 2: you want. If you don't think you're talented, then you're not.
Speaker 2: If you don't think you'll meet the right people, you
Speaker 2: never will, not because you're not able to, but because
Speaker 2: of your software, your thinking is limiting you. When Carl
Speaker 2: Lewis was training for the Olympic Games, the experts said,
Speaker 2: no person can jump over thirty feet. The scientists had
Speaker 2: run all their calculations, done all their research. According to
Speaker 2: their data, no one would ever be able to jump
Speaker 2: that far. A reporter asked Carl Lewis what he thought
Speaker 2: about it. He said, yes, I know the experts say
Speaker 2: it can't be done, but I don't listen to that
Speaker 2: kind of talk. I know thoughts like that have a
Speaker 2: way of slipping down to my feet. He went on
Speaker 2: later that same year to jump over thirty feet and
Speaker 2: break the world record. Are you allowing negative thoughts to
Speaker 2: drop down to your feet stifle your potential? Why don't
Speaker 2: you do like he did, start hitting the delete button.
Speaker 2: The experts may have told you how impossible it is,
Speaker 2: how it's not going to work out, how you're not
Speaker 2: going to get well. And again, I mean it respectfully,
Speaker 2: because the experts are doing the best they can with
Speaker 2: the knowledge that they have. What I'm saying is God
Speaker 2: has the final say. He wouldn't have put the dream
Speaker 2: in your heart. He wouldn't have given you that promise
Speaker 2: if he didn't have a way to bring it to pass.
Speaker 2: Delete what the naysayers have told you, Delete the discouraging words,
Speaker 2: Delete the negative reports. You got to get back to
Speaker 2: your original software. Some of you, this is the only
Speaker 2: thing that's holding you back. Who told you that you
Speaker 2: can't be successful, Who told you you can only make
Speaker 2: season schools? Who told you you're not tall enough, not
Speaker 2: smart enough, that you've reached your limits. I can assure
Speaker 2: you that did not come from your creator. Those are virals,
Speaker 2: says that are trying to contaminate your software. Don't let
Speaker 2: what anyone told you or what anyone showed you to
Speaker 2: limit your life. There is nothing wrong with your back legs.
Speaker 2: Start reprogramming your mind all through the day. Dwell on
Speaker 2: what your creator says about you. I'm blessed, I'm healthy,
Speaker 2: I'm talented, I'm valuable. My best days are still out
Speaker 2: in front of me. If you will do this, I
Speaker 2: believe and declare every virus is being cleared out. Even
Speaker 2: right now, strongholds are coming down. Wrong mindsets that have
Speaker 2: held you back for years will no longer have any
Speaker 2: effect on you. Like Joshua will promise you will have
Speaker 2: good success and prosper in everything you do. I declare
Speaker 2: it in Jesus' name. If you receive it, can you say,
Speaker 2: man today, Well, we never like to close our broadcast
Speaker 2: without giving you an opportunity to make Jesus the lord
Speaker 2: of your life. Would you pray with me, say, Lord Jesus,
Speaker 2: I repent of my sins. Come into my heart. I
Speaker 2: make you my Lord and savior. Friends, if you prayed
Speaker 2: that simple prayer, we believe you got born again. Get
Speaker 2: in a good Bible based church. Keep God first place.
Speaker 2: He's going to take your places that you've never dreamed.
