I like to start with something funny, 45 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 5: and I heard about this elderly couple. They were sitting 46 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 5: in a swing celebrating their fiftieth wedding anniversary. Feeling romantic, 47 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 5: the husband said to his wife, oh, dear, our love 48 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 5: is tried and true. His wife had difficulty hearing it 49 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 5: and ask him to repeat it. He said it louder, 50 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 5: I said, our love is tried and true. 51 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 7: She still couldn't hear him. Said what would you? Please 52 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 7: speak up? 53 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 5: Frustrated he shouted, I said, our love is tried and true. 54 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 7: She said, well fine, I'm sick of you too. Hold 55 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 7: up your bible. Why is that funny to me? Hold 56 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 7: up your bible? Say it like you mean it. This 57 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 7: is my Bible. I am what it says. 58 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:55,959 Speaker 3: I am. 59 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 5: I have what it says I have. I can do 60 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 5: what it says I can do. Today I will be 61 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,959 Speaker 5: taught the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind 62 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 5: is alert, my heart is receptive. I will never be 63 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 5: the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want 64 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 5: to talk to you today about reprogramming your mind. 65 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,639 Speaker 7: Our mind is like a computer. 66 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 5: How we program it is the way it's going to function. 67 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 5: You can have the most powerful computer made, the latest, fastest, 68 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 5: holds the most memory. But if you put the wrong 69 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 5: software in it. 70 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 7: It's not going to function like it was designed. 71 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 5: And we've all had to deal with these computer viruses. 72 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 5: They can get into a perfectly good computer and start 73 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 5: to contaminate the software. Before long, the computer is slowed, 74 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 5: you can't access your files. 75 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 7: All these problems occur. 76 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 5: Not because it's defective, it's poorly made. No, the hardware 77 00:03:54,520 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 5: is fine. It's because somebody we program the software. How 78 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 5: the insides got messed up. Now the software is contaminated 79 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 5: in the same way. When God created you, he stepped 80 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 5: back and said, another masterpiece. 81 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 7: Your hardware is perfect. 82 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 5: You're the right size, the right nationality, you have the 83 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 5: right gifts. Not only that, God put the right software 84 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 5: in you from the very beginning. He programmed you to 85 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 5: be victorious, healthy, strong, creative. Your original software says you 86 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 5: can do all. 87 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 7: Things through Christ. 88 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 5: He programmed whatever you touch will prosper and succeed. He 89 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 5: programmed the head and not the tail, lend and not borrow, 90 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 5: victor and not victim. 91 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 7: You were programmed to live. 92 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 5: In abundant, victorious, faith filled life. 93 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 7: That's how your creator designed you. 94 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 5: But the reason we don't always experience this abundant life 95 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 5: is we've allowed virus say is to contaminate our software. 96 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,359 Speaker 5: We think I'll never be successful. I'm not that talented. 97 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 5: I'll never break this addiction. 98 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 7: I've had it too long. I'm slow, clumsy, unattractive. 99 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 5: Nothing good is in my future because our software is infected. 100 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 5: We go around low self esteem, negative, not believing for 101 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 5: dreams to come to pass, not expecting problems to turn around. 102 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 5: Here's the good news. There is nothing wrong with you. 103 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 7: Like that computer. 104 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,919 Speaker 5: You're not a mistake, you're not faulty. The problem is 105 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 5: your software. You've got to get rid of the viruses. 106 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 5: All through the day, dwell on what. 107 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 7: Your creator says about you. 108 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 5: I'm blessed, I'm strong, I'm healthy, I'm confident, I'm attractive, 109 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 5: I'm valuable, i am victorious. You've got to get back 110 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 5: to your original software. If your thinking is limited, your 111 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 5: life will be limited. One of the best things we 112 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 5: can learn to do is hit. 113 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 7: The delete button. 114 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:10,279 Speaker 5: When negative, discouraging thoughts come trying to contaminate your software, 115 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 5: Just hit delete. That thought says you've seen your best days. 116 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 5: It's all downhill from here. Recognize that's a virus trying 117 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 5: to keep you from your destiny. It's real simple, delete, 118 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 5: not dwelling on that. My software says, the path of 119 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 5: the righteous gets brighter and brighter. Well, you'll never get well. 120 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 7: You saw the medical report. Delete. God is restoring health 121 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 7: back into me. 122 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 5: The number of my days he will fulfill. I will 123 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 5: live and not die. You may hear you'll never accomplish 124 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 5: your dreams. You're not that talented. You don't have what 125 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 5: it takes. Delete, delete, Delete. I am fearfully and wonderfully made. 126 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 5: I have the favor of God. Whatever I touch prospers 127 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 5: and succeeds. Perhaps you'll hear you'll never break that addiction. 128 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 5: Your father was an alcoholic, and you'll. 129 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 7: Be one too. Delete. 130 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 5: No weapon formed against me will prosper. Whom the sun 131 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 5: sets free is free, indeed, and I am free. 132 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 7: If you're going to reach. 133 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 5: Your highest potential, you've got to get good at hitting 134 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 5: the delete button. When I stepped up to pasture the church, 135 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 5: every thought told me, you can't do this, Joel. You 136 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 5: don't know how to minister. You're too young, you don't 137 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 5: have the experience. Nobody's going to come. Would have been 138 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 5: easy to let that virus take root and keep me 139 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 5: from my destiny. I did what I'm asking you to do. 140 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 5: I kept hitting the delete button. 141 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 7: You can't do it. 142 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 5: Delete, you're too young. Delete, nobody's gonna come. 143 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 7: Delete. You don't have the experience. Delete. It's not going 144 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 7: to work out. Delete. I wouldn't be standing. 145 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 5: Here if I wasn't an expert at hitting the delete button. 146 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 5: One Sunday, right after I first got started, I overheard 147 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 5: two ladies talking in the lobby after the service about me. 148 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 7: One said, he's not as good as his father. 149 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 5: The other answered, yeah, I don't think he's going to 150 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 5: make it. The enemy will use people to try to 151 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 5: contaminate your software. I was already insecure, intimidated, didn't think 152 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 5: I could do it. 153 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 7: When I heard that. My first thought was to panic. 154 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,239 Speaker 7: My worst fears had come true. 155 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 5: But then something rolls up on the inside. God gives 156 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 5: you grace for every season. He arms you with strength 157 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 5: for every battle. I thought to myself, those two ladies, 158 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 5: they don't determine my destiny. 159 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,439 Speaker 7: They didn't call me, they didn't equip me, they didn't 160 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 7: anoint me. 161 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 5: And more than anything else, they can't stop me. 162 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 7: They don't have the final say. 163 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 5: God has a final say. He said, I'm well able, 164 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 5: I can do all things through Christ, I am strong 165 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:58,599 Speaker 5: in the Lord. Every time I heard their voice delete 166 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 5: no thanks now, dwelling on it came back again and 167 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 5: again and again. I just kept hitting the delete button. 168 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 5: The scripture tells us to guard our mind. You control 169 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 5: the doorway to what you allow in. You can dwell 170 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 5: on every negative thought, every derogatory comment, or you can 171 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 5: choose to delete it and dwell on what God says 172 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,839 Speaker 5: about you. If I would have let what those two 173 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 5: ladies said play over and over, they would have contaminated 174 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 5: my confidence, contaminated my self esteem, contaminated my future. Some 175 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 5: of you would go to a new level if you 176 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 5: would just start hitting the delete button. Quit dwelling on 177 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 5: every negative thought that comes to your mind. That's the 178 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 5: enemy trying to contaminate your software. If he can control 179 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,319 Speaker 5: your thinking, he can control. 180 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 7: Your whole life. 181 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 5: If that thought is negative, discouraging, pushing you down, don't 182 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 5: dwell on it. 183 00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 7: Delete it. Pay attention to what you're thinking. If you go. 184 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 5: Around thinking that you're not talented, then you'll never have 185 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 5: the confidence to step into your destiny. If you think 186 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,559 Speaker 5: you're unattractive, you'll never meet the people you were supposed 187 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 5: to meet. If you think you can't break the addiction, 188 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 5: then you can't. If you think you've reached your limits, 189 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 5: then you have. It's not because you can't go further. 190 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 5: You've just convinced yourself that you can't. The good news 191 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:30,079 Speaker 5: is it's not too late. You can still become everything 192 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 5: God created you to be. 193 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 7: Here's the key. You've got to clear out all. 194 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 5: The negative things people have said about you. You are 195 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 5: not who people say you are. You are who God 196 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 5: says you are. Clear Out what the coach, the teacher 197 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,079 Speaker 5: said about you. 198 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 7: You're too small, you don't have what it takes. Deleted. 199 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 7: Quit dwelling on that you're the right size. 200 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 5: You have exactly what you need for the race that's 201 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 5: been designed for you. 202 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:01,199 Speaker 7: Clear out what the counselor said. You're just a C student. 203 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 7: You're not college material. 204 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:07,599 Speaker 5: Deleted. You're an a student, you have seeds of greatness. 205 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 5: Clear out what. 206 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 7: The ex boyfriend, the ex spouse said. You're not attractive, 207 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 7: You're not good enough for me. Deleted. 208 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 5: You're a masterpiece, one of a kind, beautiful, attractive, a 209 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 5: prize possession. You may have to clear out what a 210 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 5: parent said, that. 211 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 7: Person that raised you. 212 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 5: You're so undisciplined, you're never going to dime out to much. 213 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:30,839 Speaker 5: You can't do anything right. 214 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 7: Deleteed. 215 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 5: You are destined to do great things. You're destined to 216 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:39,439 Speaker 5: leave your mark on this generation. I read a report 217 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 5: about children that had been bullied in school. It talked 218 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 5: about how years later those negative words were still having 219 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 5: an effect on many of them. 220 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 7: They interviewed this one man. 221 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 5: He was in his forties, and he looked to be 222 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 5: a bright, intelligent man, but he had not been able 223 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,959 Speaker 5: to hold down a good job, struggled in his relationship, 224 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 5: couldn't seem to get on course. He told how as 225 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 5: a child he was overweight, he was chubby. Some of 226 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 5: the other children made fun of him and called him names, 227 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 5: things like loser, failure. He made the mistake of letting 228 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 5: those words take root. Now they were keeping him in mediocrity. 229 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 5: When somebody calls you something either good or bad. That 230 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 5: seed is planted in your soil. Now you get to 231 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,680 Speaker 5: determine whether or not that seed. 232 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 7: Takes root and grows. 233 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 5: When you dwell on what was said, you were watering 234 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:41,359 Speaker 5: the seed. You're giving it a right to become a reality. 235 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 5: That's why it's so important that we're disciplined in our 236 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 5: thought life. It's great when people tell you you're blessed, you're talented, 237 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 5: you're going to do great things. Water those seeds, meditate 238 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 5: on those throughout the day. That's what you want to 239 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:59,959 Speaker 5: become a reality. But too often the mistake we make 240 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 5: is we water the wrong seeds. Those two ladies that 241 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 5: said I wasn't as good as my father, if I 242 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 5: would have watered that seed, I would have never gotten 243 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 5: off the ground. And the truth is it wouldn't have 244 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 5: been their fault. They can't make a seed take root 245 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 5: in me. All they can do is sow the seed. 246 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 5: You have complete control over what seeds are going to 247 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 5: take root and grow in your own soil. Now, a 248 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 5: lot of times we blame others. Well, they were talking 249 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 5: about me. They tried to make me look bad, they 250 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 5: were criticizing me. No, let them talk all they want. 251 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 5: You control your own soil. Don't dwell on the negative, don't. 252 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 7: Replay what they said over and over. Guard your mind. 253 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 5: Those are viruses trying to infiltrate your software. Joshua will 254 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 5: put it this way, if you will meditate on what God. 255 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 7: Says about you day and. 256 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 5: Night, then you will have good success and prosper in everything. 257 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 7: You do. When your mind is filled with. 258 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 5: Thoughts of faith, thoughts of hope, thoughts of victory, that's 259 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 5: what's going to become a reality. That man in his 260 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 5: forties that was still shruggling, you know why, he let 261 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 5: those derogatory comments play over and over every time he 262 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 5: thought about it. He was watering that seed year after year, 263 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 5: and sad to say, but it became a reality. How 264 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 5: different would his life be if he had just learned 265 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 5: to hit the delete button, said a. 266 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 7: Constantly playing the negative. 267 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 5: What if he had have gone around thinking I'm a masterpiece, 268 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 5: I'm one of a kind, I'm talented, I've got seeds 269 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 5: of greatness. 270 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 7: It would be a whole different story. 271 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 5: Somebody may have spoken negative words over you. 272 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 7: Deleted. People don't determine your destiny. God determines your destiny. 273 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 5: That's why we start off every message by saying I 274 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 5: am who God. 275 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 7: Says I am. 276 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 5: We're saying, in effect, i am not who my history 277 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 5: teacher says I am. I'm not who my ex chouse 278 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 5: says I am. I am not who the critics say 279 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 5: I am. I am who God says I am. I 280 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 5: like to take it a step further. Not only I 281 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 5: am who God says I am, But I can do 282 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 5: what God says I can do. 283 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 7: That means we know we've been programmed for victory. 284 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 5: We've been programmed to reign in life. We've been programmed 285 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 5: to overcome obstacles. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, 286 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 5: but the Lord delivers us out of them all. We 287 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 5: will accomplish our dreams. We will meet the right people. 288 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 5: We will step. 289 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 7: Into the fullness of our destinies. When you think like that, 290 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 7: all the forces of. 291 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 5: Darkness cannot stop you. Friends, the real battle is taking 292 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 5: place in your mind. If you're defeated in your thoughts, 293 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 5: you've already lost. You've got to get rid of the viruses. 294 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 5: If you will get back to your original software. 295 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 7: Put in you by your creator. 296 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 5: You'll go places that you've never dreamed. It's interesting how 297 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 5: little children star off so excited about life. 298 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 7: They've got big dreams. 299 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 5: They're going to become a scientist, an astronaut, a singer, 300 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 5: a teacher, a ballplayer, even the president. They're not intimidated, 301 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 5: they're not insecure. They believe they can do anything. It's 302 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 5: because they just came from their creator. Their thinking has 303 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:25,479 Speaker 5: not been contaminated. They can still feel the seeds of greatness, 304 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 5: but too often, over time they start to get reprogrammed. 305 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 7: Somebody tells them what. 306 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 5: They can't become, what they can't do. Little by little, 307 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 5: their environment. 308 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 7: Starts to squeeze them down. 309 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 5: A coach, a teacher says, hey, you're not good enough, 310 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 5: you're too small. Their self esteem goes down, they see 311 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 5: somebody more attractive, and they start to feel inferior. All 312 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 5: these things begin to distort who they really are. Before long, 313 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 5: instead of dreaming big and believing possibility thoughts, they think, 314 00:16:57,840 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 5: I'll never do anything great. 315 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 7: I'm not that talented. I'm just average. 316 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 5: When we find ourselves stuck in these ruts, not believing 317 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 5: we can rise any higher, we need to ask why 318 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 5: do I think this way? Who programmed me to think 319 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,679 Speaker 5: that I'm average? Who programmed me to give up on 320 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 5: my dreams? Who programmed me to think I can't lose 321 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 5: this weight, I can't break this addiction. 322 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 7: I've gone as far as I can. Where did those 323 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 7: thoughts come from? 324 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 5: Could it be that you have accepted a wrong mindset 325 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 5: because of the environment you were raised in the people 326 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 5: that you were around. Just because it seems normal to 327 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 5: you doesn't mean that it's necessarily normal. Sometimes we learn 328 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 5: to function in our dysfunction. Maybe everybody you grew up 329 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,640 Speaker 5: with was negative, Well you're not supposed to be negative. 330 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:50,479 Speaker 7: That's not normal. 331 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 5: Maybe your friends didn't have big dreams, they didn't do 332 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 5: anything great in life. 333 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 7: Well that's not okay for you. That's not normal. 334 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 5: Just because family members had adictions bad habits, don't make 335 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 5: the mistake of thinking that's okay for you to live 336 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 5: that way. 337 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 7: Those are viruses that. 338 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 5: Have been passed down that keep infiltrating our thinking. Listen, 339 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:17,439 Speaker 5: God created you to go further, to be confident, to 340 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 5: be free, to be healthy, positive, happy. You have greatness 341 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 5: on the inside. Now it starts by reprogramming your thinking. 342 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 5: I saw a story about this dog, a German shepherd. 343 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 5: She was pregnant with puppies. One day, she was walking 344 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 5: across the street and got hit by a car. Both 345 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 5: of her back legs were broken. She was able to 346 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 5: drag herself off the street and back to her house. 347 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:47,120 Speaker 5: As the weeks went by, she began to slowly recover. 348 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 5: Her legs finally healed, but because they weren't properly reset 349 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 5: when she walked, all she could do was drag her 350 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 5: back legs. She couldn't walk properly. Her joints had been 351 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:00,479 Speaker 5: made stuff. 352 00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 7: Eventually she had her puppies. 353 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 5: They seemed to be healthy and whole, but a few 354 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 5: weeks later, when they started walking, just like their mother, 355 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 5: they dragged their back legs. The owner was amazed. He 356 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,120 Speaker 5: thought maybe they had been injured in the. 357 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 7: Accident as well. 358 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,440 Speaker 5: Took them to the veterinarian to have them checked out. 359 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 5: The doctor discovered there was nothing wrong with their back legs. 360 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,120 Speaker 7: They were perfectly healthy. 361 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 5: Those puppies were simply copying their mother. That's all they 362 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 5: had seen modeled in their mind. 363 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 7: That's the way they were supposed to walk. 364 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 5: That's what's happened to many of us what we saw 365 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 5: modeled growing up. 366 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 7: The people that raised us. 367 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 5: They were good people, They were doing their best, but 368 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 5: in some way, they were dragging their back legs. They 369 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 5: were negative discouraged. Now we live negative discouraged. They had addictions, 370 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 5: low self esteem. 371 00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:58,919 Speaker 7: Now we struggle in those same areas. 372 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 5: Or may they made poor choices in relationships God involved 373 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 5: with the wrong people. 374 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 7: Now we're dealing with the same. 375 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 5: Issues we saw them, except mediocrity. Now mediocrity has become 376 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 5: normal to us. 377 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 7: The good news. 378 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 5: Just like those puppies, There is nothing wrong with your 379 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 5: back legs. 380 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 7: Those are simply wrong mindsets that you've developed. 381 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 5: As you get your thinking straightened out, your legs will 382 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 5: straighten out. God didn't make you faulty. He didn't create 383 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 5: you subpar. He created you in his image. You are 384 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 5: his masterpiece, crowned with favor, equipped with talent gifts. 385 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 7: You are destined to live a great. 386 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 5: Life, healthy, abundant, happy, faith filled. Now, don't go around 387 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 5: dragging your back legs. You are not supposed to go 388 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 5: through life inferior, low self esteem, addicted, little goals, little dreams. 389 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 7: That's not who you are. 390 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 5: Start reprogramming your mind as the head and not the tail. 391 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 5: Program it with excellence, not mediocrity. Program it with abundance, 392 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 5: not lack and poverty. Program it with freedom, not addictions. 393 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 5: This is what my father did. He grew up in 394 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 5: a very poor environment. His parents lost everything during the 395 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 5: Great Depression. He had no money, no education, no future 396 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 5: to speak of. He had been programmed with poverty, defeat mediocrity. 397 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 7: He could have settled there, that's all he had seen. Thought, Hey, 398 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 7: this is just my lot in life. 399 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 5: We're just poor, defeated people, but it's seventeen years old. 400 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 5: When he gave his life to Christ, he started reprogramming 401 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 5: his thinking. Deep down, something said, you were made for 402 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 5: more than this. You're not supposed to constantly struggle to 403 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 5: barely make it through life. He could feel those seeds 404 00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:01,880 Speaker 5: of greatness stirring on the inside. His attitude was this 405 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 5: may be where I am, but this is. 406 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 7: Not who I am. 407 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,679 Speaker 5: I may be in defeat, but I am not defeated. 408 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 5: I'm a child of the Most High God. Day after day, 409 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:14,479 Speaker 5: he kept hitting the delete button. 410 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 7: Thought told him, you have no future. Delete. God's plans 411 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 7: for me are for good. To give me a future 412 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 7: and a hope. 413 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 5: You have no money. Delete, I'm blessed. Whatever I touch prospers. 414 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:30,400 Speaker 5: You have no education. You'll never get out of here. 415 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 5: It's impossible. 416 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 7: Delete, delete, delete. 417 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 5: God is making a way where I don't see away. 418 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,679 Speaker 5: He's opening doors that no men can shut. He's bringing 419 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 5: the right people across my path. I will step into 420 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 5: the fullness. 421 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:48,439 Speaker 7: Of my destiny. He reprogrammed his thinking with thoughts of faith, 422 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 7: thoughts of hope, thoughts of victory. 423 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 5: That's how he rose up out of that poverty, set 424 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 5: a new standard for our family. You may have been 425 00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 5: raised in a limited environment. All you saw model was strife, addictions, conflict, 426 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 5: low self esteem, mediocrity. 427 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:07,879 Speaker 7: Don't let that set. 428 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:11,120 Speaker 5: The limits for your life. Don't go around dragging your 429 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 5: back legs. God wants you to go further now. It 430 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 5: starts by getting rid of the viruses. 431 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 7: Hit the delete button. 432 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:20,879 Speaker 5: The thought tells you you've gone as far as you 433 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 5: can delete. 434 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 7: You'll never get well. 435 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 5: Delete, You'll always be addicted. 436 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 7: Delete. This is as good as it gets. Delete. 437 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 5: If you'll get good at hitting the delete button, you 438 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:33,640 Speaker 5: will break out of bondages. 439 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:34,719 Speaker 7: And you will step into freedom. 440 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 5: You will break out of lack and poverty and step 441 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 5: into abundance. 442 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:43,159 Speaker 7: You will break out of mediocrity and step up to excellence. 443 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 7: This is a new day. 444 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 5: Strongholds are coming down. Wrong, mindsets are being broken. Viruses 445 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,479 Speaker 5: are being cleared out. Get ready for God to do 446 00:23:55,520 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 5: something new. Get ready to see his goodness in amazing ways. Well, Joel, 447 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 5: this sounds encouraging, But I don't know. All the experts 448 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:08,400 Speaker 5: say I'll never get well. The experts say I'll never 449 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 5: get out of death. The experts tell me I've gone 450 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 5: as far as my education allows this is as good 451 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 5: as it gets. 452 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:16,160 Speaker 7: I say this. 453 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 5: Respectfully, but the experts can be wrong. The experts told 454 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 5: us we would never have this building, but here we 455 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 5: are today. The experts told my mother that she had 456 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 5: a few weeks to live, but thirty three years later, 457 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 5: she's still alive and healthy. The experts told us Lakewood 458 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 5: would never make it without my father, but we're doing 459 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:39,120 Speaker 5: pretty good. 460 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 7: I read about a bumblebee. 461 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 5: According to all the laws of aerodynamics, a bumblebee should 462 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 5: not be able to fly. Its wingspan is too small 463 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 5: for the size of its body. It can't get enough left. 464 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 5: But here's the key. Nobody told the bumblebee. It didn't 465 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,119 Speaker 5: get the memo. No experts were able to talk it 466 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 5: out of it. The bumblebee felt its wings on its side, 467 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:09,880 Speaker 5: and something in its DNA said, I'm supposed to fly. 468 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 5: I'm not made to just crawl around on the ground. 469 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 5: It didn't go check with the experts. It didn't read 470 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 5: the latest engineering report. It just did what was natural 471 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 5: and started flapping its wings took off up. 472 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:23,640 Speaker 7: Into the air. 473 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 5: If that bumblebee would have been able to read the 474 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 5: negative reports, would have been able to listen to the naysayers, 475 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:34,959 Speaker 5: it would have never gotten off the ground. 476 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 7: It starts in our thinking. 477 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 5: If you don't think you can be successful, you want. 478 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 5: If you don't think you're talented, then you're not. If 479 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 5: you don't think you'll meet the right people. 480 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 7: You never will. 481 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,879 Speaker 5: Not because you're not able to, but because of your software. 482 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:52,880 Speaker 7: Your thinking is limiting you. 483 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 5: When Carl Lewis was training for the Olympic Games, the 484 00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 5: experts said no person can jump over thirty feet. The 485 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 5: scientists had run all their calculations, done all their research. 486 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 5: According to their data, no one would ever be able 487 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:09,640 Speaker 5: to jump that far. 488 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 7: A reporter asked Carl Lewis what he thought about it. 489 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 5: He said, yes, I know the experts say it can't 490 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:19,200 Speaker 5: be done, but I don't listen to that kind of talk. 491 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 7: I know thoughts like that have a way of slipping 492 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 7: down to my feet. 493 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 5: He went on later that same year to jump over 494 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 5: thirty feet and break the world record. Are you allowing 495 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 5: negative thoughts to drop down to your feet stifle your potential? 496 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 7: Why don't you do like he did, start hitting the 497 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 7: delete button. 498 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 5: The experts may have told you how impossible it is, 499 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 5: how it's not going to work out, how you're not 500 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 5: going to get well and again. I mean it respectfully 501 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 5: because the experts are doing the best they can with 502 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,399 Speaker 5: the knowledge that they have.
