He was going to prove to his 49 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 4: students that there is no God. He said, God, if 50 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 4: you're real, knock me off this platform. I'm giving you 51 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 4: fifteen minutes to do it. With every minute that went by, 52 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 4: he taunted God, God, I'm still waiting. I'm still here. 53 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 4: The last minute, three hundred pound football player walking down 54 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,679 Speaker 4: the hallway overheard what he was saying. He took off, 55 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 4: running toward him full blast, put his shoulder down, send 56 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 4: him flying off the platform. The professor got up in 57 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 4: a daze, said, what in the world do you do 58 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 4: that for? Football player replied God said he was busy, 59 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 4: so he sent me. Say it like you mean it. 60 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 4: This is my Bible. I am what it says. I am. 61 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 4: I have what it says I have. I can do 62 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 4: what it says I can do. Today I will be 63 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 4: taught the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind 64 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 4: is alert, my heart is receptive. I will never be 65 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 4: the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want 66 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 4: to talk to you today about your destiny is calling. 67 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 4: In the scripture, God called Abraham a father of many nations, 68 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 4: at that time, he didn't have any children. He and 69 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 4: his wife Sarah were too old to have kids. It 70 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 4: looked like God made a mistake. Abraham could have thought, God, 71 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 4: what do you mean, I'm not a father of many nations. 72 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 4: I'm childless. My wife is barren. Here's the principle. God 73 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 4: calls you what you are before you become it. People 74 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 4: call you what you are after it happens. God calls 75 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 4: you what you are before it happens. When God rejected 76 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 4: Saul as the king of Israel, he told Samuel, I 77 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 4: have found a man after my own heart. David will 78 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 4: be the next king. What's interesting is David wasn't a man. 79 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 4: He was a teenager. He was out taking care of 80 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 4: his father's sheep. He was a boy. Yet God called 81 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 4: him what he would become in the same way God 82 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 4: calls you blessed, successful, strong, healthy, talented. That may not 83 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 4: all be true right now. You could say, like Abraham, God, 84 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 4: what do you mean, I'm not blessed. I'm struggling in 85 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 4: my finances. I'm not healthy. I'm dealing with this illness. 86 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 4: Don't worry. It's on the way God calls things that 87 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 4: are not as if they already were. There are promises 88 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 4: that God has spoken over you, dreams and goals He's 89 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 4: placed in your heart. You didn't come up with them 90 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 4: on your own. Those aren't just your ideas. God put 91 00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 4: them there. The scripture talks about the secret patient of 92 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 4: your heart. That means the things you're dreaming about you 93 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 4: haven't told anyone seems too big, too far out. That's 94 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 4: your destiny calling. That's God telling you what you can become. 95 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 4: You may not see how it can happen. Every circumstance 96 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 4: may say you don't have the talent, you don't come 97 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 4: from the right family. You tried last time, it didn't 98 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 4: work out. Don't talk yourself out of it. God has 99 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 4: spoken it. He controls the universe. All he's looking for 100 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 4: is someone who will agree with him, someone who will 101 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 4: rise up in faith and say, yes, I can hear 102 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 4: my destiny calling. I may not see away, but God, 103 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 4: I know you have a way. If you speak it, 104 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 4: I believe I can become it. Human nature says when 105 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 4: I see it, I'll believe it. Faith says, I'll believe it, 106 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 4: then I'll see it. God will speak things over you 107 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 4: that don't seem logical. When you're sick, the medical report 108 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 4: says you won't get well. God says just the opposite. 109 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 4: He calls you healthy, wholes strong. When the odds are 110 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 4: against you, you don't have the connections, the resources, the experience. 111 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 4: God calls you successful, prosperous, the head and not the tale. 112 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 4: When you're struggling with an addiction, everybody in your family 113 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 4: has had it. If you'll listen, you'll hear your destiny 114 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 4: saying you are free. This addiction is temporary. The buck 115 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 4: stops with you. God doesn't call you what you are, 116 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 4: He calls you what you can become. This is what 117 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 4: happened with my father. He was raised on a cotton farm. 118 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 4: His family lost everything during the Great Depression. They were 119 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 4: very poor, barely had enough food to survive. He went 120 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 4: to school with holes in his pants, holes in his shoes. 121 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 4: Eventually he had to drop out of high school to 122 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 4: help his parents on the farm. Didn't look like he 123 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 4: had much of a future. Limited education, poverty defeated mindset. 124 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 4: But at the age of seventeen, Daddy gave his life 125 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 4: to Christ, the first one in his family. All of 126 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 4: a sudden, he had a desire to become a minister. 127 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 4: He knew that's what he was going to do with 128 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 4: his life. Notice the principle. God called him a pastor 129 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 4: before he ever had a church, before he had any credentials, 130 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 4: before he had ever been to seminary. He could hear 131 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 4: his destiny calling. He could have talked himself out of it, 132 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 4: thought me be a pastor. That's never going to work out. Instead, 133 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 4: he let the seed take root. He believed what God 134 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 4: had spoken over him. He started telling people, I'm a pastor, 135 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 4: I'm a minister. They looked at him like he wasn't 136 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 4: all there. Even his family told him, John, you're not 137 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 4: a minister. You better stay here on the farm with us. 138 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 4: All you know how to do is pick cotton. But 139 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 4: people can't see what God sees in you. God sees 140 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 4: your potential. He knows what you're capable of. He's the 141 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 4: one that breathe life into you. Don't let people talk 142 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 4: you out of it. Don't let family members convince you 143 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 4: you don't have what it takes. They're calling you what 144 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 4: you are. God is calling you what you can become. 145 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 4: They can't hear what you hear. Don't expect people to 146 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 4: cheer you on. Don't count on your friends to keep 147 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 4: you encouraged. They may not be for you. They may 148 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 4: think you're far out and try to talk you out 149 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 4: of it. Don't worry. You don't have to have other people. 150 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 4: When you hear your destiny calling, that's between you and 151 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 4: God and some things you have to go alone. You 152 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 4: have to say God, they may not be for me, 153 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 4: but I know you for me. You put this promise 154 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,839 Speaker 4: in my heart. I'm not going to be moved by 155 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 4: who's not cheering me on, not going to give up 156 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 4: because nobody's encouraging me. I know you being for me 157 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 4: is more than enough to get me to where I'm 158 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 4: supposed to be friends. You and God are a majority. 159 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 4: That promise is not dependent on your family, your friends, 160 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,559 Speaker 4: your neighbors, your coworkers, your boss, the critics, the naysayers. 161 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,839 Speaker 4: It's dependent on you. When you're tempted to get discouraged 162 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 4: to settle for mediocrity, you have to dig your heels 163 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 4: in and say, I don't think so. I am in 164 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 4: it to win it. Keep pressing forward, keep honoring God. 165 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 4: Your destiny is calling. Luke. Chapter one, an angel appeared 166 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 4: to Zachariah and told him that he was going to 167 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 4: have a son that they were to name John. Zachariah's wife, Elizabeth, 168 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 4: had been bearing for many years. They had been praying, 169 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 4: believing to have a child. While Zachariah was excited about 170 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 4: the news, he started reasoning it out. It didn't seem possible. 171 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 4: Like Abraham and Sarah, they too were way too old. 172 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 4: Zachariah said to the angel, how can I be sure 173 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 4: this is going to happen? I'm an old man and 174 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 4: my wife is well along in years. Was saying, in effect, 175 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 4: I can hear my destiny calling, but I don't see 176 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 4: how it can happen. We're too old. God was telling 177 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 4: him what he could become, but because he had been 178 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 4: childless for so many years, he couldn't conceive it. When 179 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 4: you've been a certain way for a long time, you 180 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 4: prayed and believed, and it hasn't happened, it's easy to 181 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 4: settle for who you are instead of believing for who 182 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 4: you can become. Too often we get comfortable with mediocrity. 183 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 4: I talked to a gentleman recently. He struggled with an 184 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 4: addiction since high school. He's in his forties. He said, Joel, 185 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:06,839 Speaker 4: I've done everything I can. I've gone through treatment, rehab, counseling. 186 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 4: Nothing has worked. I guess this is my lot in life. 187 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 4: He was saying, this is who I am. Yes, that 188 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 4: may be who you are, but you don't have to 189 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 4: stay that way. God is telling you what you can become. 190 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 4: Freedom is in your future. Wholeness is in your future. 191 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 4: Breakthroughs are headed your way. Maybe you've been single a 192 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 4: long time. You don't think you'll ever meet the right person. 193 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:37,319 Speaker 4: That is not the end, that's a season. God has 194 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 4: already lined up a divine connection for you, somebody better 195 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 4: than you can imagine. Perhaps you feel stuck in your career. 196 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 4: You can't seem to get a good break. That's not permanent, 197 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:53,079 Speaker 4: It's only temporary. There is promotion in your future. There 198 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 4: are new levels up ahead. Now, don't do like Zachariah, Joel, 199 00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,559 Speaker 4: this is too good to be true. I don't see how. 200 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 4: Let the seed take root. That's your destiny. Calling, Zachariah 201 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 4: said to the angel, are you sure this is going 202 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 4: to happen? The angel said, Zachariah, I am Gabriel. I 203 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 4: stand in the presence of God. He sent me to 204 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 4: tell you this good news. But because you didn't believe 205 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 4: my words, you will remain silent and not able to 206 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 4: speak until the day it happens. From that moment on, 207 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 4: Zachariah couldn't talk. He walked out, saw his family and friends. 208 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 4: Couldn't get a word out. For nine months, he was silent. 209 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 4: Why was that? God knew if he went around saying 210 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,079 Speaker 4: it's never going to happen. This angel told us we're 211 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 4: going to have a baby. We're too old, the promise 212 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:49,319 Speaker 4: never would have come to pass. You can talk yourself 213 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 4: out of your victory when you hear your destiny calling. 214 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 4: You may not see how it can happen, But don't 215 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 4: start talking about how it's not going to work out. 216 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 4: Do yourself and zip it up. It may seem unlikely. 217 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 4: The medical report says, no way, the child is off course. 218 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 4: But if Gabriel we're standing here today, he would say 219 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 4: the same thing to you that he said to Zachariah. 220 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 4: I stand in the presence of Almighty God. What he 221 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 4: promised you will come to pass. If you will stay 222 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 4: in faith. All the forces of darkness cannot keep it 223 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 4: from happening. God will open doors that no man can shut. 224 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:35,559 Speaker 4: He'll turn situations around that look impossible when there are 225 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 4: obstacles trying to stop you. God said He'll cause you 226 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 4: to run through a troop or leap over a wall. 227 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 4: That means if you can't get through it, God will 228 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 4: cause you to go over it. Bottom line is God 229 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 4: will get you to where you're supposed to be. People 230 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 4: can't stop you. Bad breaks can't stop you. Sickness can't 231 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 4: stop you. God has the final say, and we're not 232 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,559 Speaker 4: supposed to get star in one level. Be grateful for 233 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:06,080 Speaker 4: where you are, Thank God for what He's done, but 234 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 4: keep your faith stirred up. God wants to take you 235 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 4: from glory to glory, from victory to victory. There are 236 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 4: new mountains for you to climb. He's going to open 237 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 4: new doors, give you greater influence, bring gifts and talents 238 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 4: out in a new way. This is where you are, 239 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 4: but God is saying you can become something greater. Nine 240 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 4: months later, Elizabeth gave birth to a baby boy. The 241 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 4: promise was fulfilled and her friends and family were so 242 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 4: excited for they knew that was the favor of God. 243 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 4: And on the eighth day they came together, they decided 244 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 4: to name the baby Zachariah, after the father. The friends 245 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 4: and family came up with the name, but Elizabeth, the mother, 246 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 4: spoke up and said no, his name will not be Zachariah. 247 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 4: His name will be John. They looked at her strangely, Elizabeth, 248 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 4: what do you mean? Nobody in your family is named John? 249 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 4: And back in those days, it wasn't good enough for 250 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 4: the mother to name the baby. Women didn't have the 251 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 4: authority and influence that they have today. So they looked 252 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 4: at the father. Zachariah, Well, he still couldn't talk. He 253 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 4: motioned for something to write on. Much to their surprise, 254 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 4: he wrote down the name John. The moment he did, 255 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 4: he could speak again. His mouth was open. But the 256 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 4: scripture says they named the baby, not the mother or 257 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 4: the father, but friends and family came up with what 258 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 4: they thought the best name for the child was. Sometimes 259 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 4: well meaning people will try to name your baby. I 260 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 4: say this respectfully. We all have theyse in our life, 261 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 4: and we should listen to counsel, take it vice. But 262 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 4: you cannot let other people know you baby. Don't let 263 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 4: somebody else name your future. You know what God put 264 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 4: in your heart. You can't please people all the time 265 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 4: and please God all the time. Sometimes people will name 266 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 4: you something that you're not. They'll name you average, not talented, 267 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 4: addicted too tak don't let them put limitations on you 268 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 4: and convince you that you can accomplish your dreams. Sometimes, 269 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 4: because of their own issues, they're not dealing with their 270 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 4: own insecurities. They'll try to keep you down so they 271 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 4: don't look so bad. You may have to disappoint a 272 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 4: few people in order to fulfill your purpose. Life is 273 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 4: too short to hang around people who are not making 274 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 4: you better, who are not pushing you forward. You don't 275 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 4: have time to waste with people that are causing you 276 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 4: to compromise, draining your energy, getting your off course, negative, critical, bitter, 277 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:04,120 Speaker 4: jealous people. Your destiny is calling you have an assignment 278 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 4: to fulfill. Well, Joel, what if I hurt their feelings? 279 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,640 Speaker 4: What if you miss your destinies? What if you don't 280 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:14,159 Speaker 4: become all you were created to be? Who's naming your baby? 281 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 4: It's interesting how back then the mother couldn't name the child, 282 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 4: so they had to look to Zachariah, the father, and 283 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 4: ask him, what's the baby's name. The principle is let 284 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 4: your heavenly father name your future. That's why we say 285 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:35,120 Speaker 4: every service, I am who God says I am. We're saying, 286 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,199 Speaker 4: in effect, I am not who people say I am. 287 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 4: I am not who my circumstances say I am. I am, 288 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 4: not who my past says I am. I am not 289 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 4: who my mistakes say. I am. I am who, the 290 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 4: most taught God, the creator of the universe, the one 291 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 4: who spoke worlds into existence. I am who, he says 292 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 4: I am. People may tell you you're addicted, you'll never get 293 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 4: on the right course. The good news is they can't 294 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 4: name your future. God says you are free, you are clean, 295 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 4: you are whole. You may not be there yet, but 296 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 4: God's telling you what you can become. Your past may 297 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 4: tell you you're washed up, you made too many mistakes. 298 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 4: You're a failure. But your heavenly Father says you are forgiven, 299 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 4: you are redeemed, you are restored. My mercy is bigger 300 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:31,160 Speaker 4: than any mistake. The critics, the naysayers, the haters may 301 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 4: tell you you're not valuable, you're not attractive, you don't have 302 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 4: anything to offer. Don't believe those lies. They don't have 303 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 4: the authority to name your future. Your heavenly Father says 304 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 4: you are one of a kind. He names you a masterpiece, 305 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:53,200 Speaker 4: a prized possession. He said You've been fearfully and wonderfully made. 306 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 4: He's crowned you with favor. You have royal blood flowing 307 00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:00,879 Speaker 4: through your veins. He's created you to reign in life 308 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 4: as a king. Make sure your heavenly father is naming 309 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,439 Speaker 4: your future. When God gave Abraham the promise that his 310 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 4: wife Sarah was going to have a baby she was 311 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 4: seventy years old, didn't seem possible. In fact, when Abraham 312 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:21,679 Speaker 4: told Sarah, the scripture says, she laughed. She thought, yeah, right, Abraham, 313 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 4: me have a baby at my age. She had been 314 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 4: baring for so many years. They had prayed and believed 315 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 4: everybody else was having babies, but Sarah couldn't have one now. 316 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 4: When she heard this promise that, after all these years, 317 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 4: when it defied the laws of nature, that she was 318 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 4: going to have a baby, that was so far out 319 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 4: that it was funny to her. And sometimes God will 320 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 4: put a promise in our heart that's difficult to believe. 321 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 4: Instead of latching onto it, too often we do like 322 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,400 Speaker 4: Sarah and think that's never going to happen for me. Joel, 323 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 4: I'll never get out of debt, be able to pay 324 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 4: my house off. I'll never have the funds to build 325 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 4: that orphanage I'm dreaming about I'll never be free from 326 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 4: this depression. I've had it my whole life. This is 327 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 4: the way Sarah felt, and God did something interesting. He 328 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:20,399 Speaker 4: changed her name from Sarah to Sarah. Sarah means princes. 329 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 4: If anybody didn't feel like a princess, it would have 330 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 4: been Sarah. I can imagine she felt inadequate, unattractive, left out. 331 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 4: Life hadn't treated her fairly. God knew he had to 332 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 4: change her mindset. Her destiny was calling, but she had 333 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 4: been through so much she couldn't hear it any longer. Now, 334 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 4: every time someone said good morning, Sarah, they were saying, 335 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 4: good morning, princes. How are you, Sarah, How are your princes? 336 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 4: Over and over she heard that word princess. Something began 337 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:02,400 Speaker 4: to come alive on the inside. She started carrying herself differently. 338 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 4: Instead of discounting the promise. Now I can hear her 339 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,640 Speaker 4: telling people, I'm going to have a baby. God's going 340 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 4: to do something special in my life. She let the 341 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:17,360 Speaker 4: seed take root. At the age of ninety, against all odds, 342 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 4: she gave birth to a baby boy. The promise God 343 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 4: put in you may seem far out. It's taken a 344 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 4: long time. You tried and it didn't work. But God 345 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 4: didn't bring you this far to leave you what he 346 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 4: started in your life. He's going to finish. There's no 347 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 4: problem too big, no dream too great. God is not 348 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 4: limited by your age, your income, your background, your nationality, 349 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 4: biomedical report. He has all power. When he speaks, worlds 350 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 4: come into existence. He wouldn't have given you that promise 351 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 4: if he didn't know how to bring it to pass. 352 00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 4: Why don't you shake off doubt, shake off negativity, and 353 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 4: get a fresh new vision for your life. God is 354 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 4: calling you into new levels. He's calling you into freedom, 355 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 4: into health, into abundance, into victory. If you'll get an 356 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 4: agreement with him, he'll take you places that you've never dreamed. 357 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 4: He'll make things happen that you could never make happen 358 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 4: on your own. This is what happened to a friend 359 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 4: of mine. She grew up in a small town in Mississippi. 360 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 4: She was raised very poor in a dysfunctional environment where 361 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 4: she suffered abuse. It looked like she would become a 362 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 4: statistic never amount to much. But one morning, at the 363 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 4: age of five, when the milkman was dropping off the 364 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 4: milk at their small house, he looked her in the 365 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:50,159 Speaker 4: eyes and said, young lady. One day, you're going to 366 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 4: become Miss America. Up to that point, nobody had ever 367 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 4: told her what she could become. All she had seen 368 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 4: and heard was dis function, defeat, abuse, mediocrity. When she 369 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:09,360 Speaker 4: heard that a seed was planted in her heart. Every Tuesday, 370 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 4: year after year, this milkman would tell her the same thing, 371 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 4: You're going to become Miss America. In the natural. She 372 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 4: had no reason to even entertain that thought. She didn't 373 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 4: have connections, resources, stability, nobody to help her with their dreams. 374 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 4: But if you could do it on your own, it 375 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 4: wouldn't take faith. God will put things in your heart 376 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:38,119 Speaker 4: that seem beyond your talent, beyond your ability, beyond your reach. 377 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 4: Now eleven years old, this young girl was involved in 378 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 4: a head on automobile accident. She was thrown from the 379 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,879 Speaker 4: car and broke her leg in thirty two places. She 380 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 4: had to have two hundred stitches on her face. So 381 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 4: much for becoming Miss America. For five years she was 382 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:02,120 Speaker 4: crippled and in a wheelchair. Most people would have given up. 383 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 4: Not this young lady. That dream was deep down in 384 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:10,120 Speaker 4: her heart. At nineteen, she entered her local beauty pageant. 385 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 4: In one first place, she went on to win the 386 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 4: Mississippi contest. Later that same year, nineteen eighty, our friend 387 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:22,919 Speaker 4: Sheryl Pruitt Salem became Miss America. The promise was fulfilled. 388 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 4: She and her husband, Harry are now ministers. They go 389 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 4: around the world helping others. But it all started when 390 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 4: that milkman told her what she could become. God will 391 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 4: use people to speak life into your destiny. I believe 392 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 4: he's using me now to let you know you have 393 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 4: seeds of greatness. You haven't seen your best days. You 394 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 4: have what it takes to accomplish your dreams. That obstacle 395 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:56,880 Speaker 4: cannot stop you. That sickness is not going to defeat you. 396 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 4: You haven't made too many mistakes, you haven't missed too 397 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:04,439 Speaker 4: many opportunities. Your future will be brighter than your past. 398 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 4: Now do your part and stir your faith back up. 399 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 4: Don't let disappointments talk you out of it. Don't let 400 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 4: what somebody did cause you to live bitter and give 401 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 4: up on your dreams. God has beauty for those ashes. 402 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 4: He said he would pay you back double for the 403 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 4: unfair situations. Nothing that's happened to you can keep you 404 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 4: from your destiny. There are new levels up ahead, new friendships, 405 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 4: new opportunities. Don't let a bad break name your future. 406 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 4: Don't let a disadvantage convince you to settle for mediocrity. 407 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 4: God put greatness in you. He created you to leave 408 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,879 Speaker 4: your mark on this generation. You're supposed to do like 409 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 4: her and set a new standard for your family. You 410 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,640 Speaker 4: may have had some setbacks, but the forces that are 411 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 4: for you are greater than the forces that are against you. 412 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 4: The most high God is breathing in your direction. In 413 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 4: the Scripture of God called Jeremiah to be a prophet 414 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 4: to the nations. Jeremiah was young and unsure of himself. 415 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 4: He said, God, I can't speak to the nations. I'm 416 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 4: too young. I'm afraid I wouldn't know what to say. 417 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:20,679 Speaker 4: God said, Jeremiah, before you were formed in your mother's womb. 418 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:24,639 Speaker 4: I knew you before you were born. I consecrated you 419 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:28,879 Speaker 4: and set you apart. God was saying, Jeremiah, before you 420 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,920 Speaker 4: showed up on this earth, I already knew everything about you. 421 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 4: I knew every weakness you would have, every shortcoming, I 422 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 4: knew every person that would do you wrong, every bad break, 423 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 4: and I've already calculated all that into my plan for 424 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:50,120 Speaker 4: your life. Like Jeremiah, it's easy to come up with excuses. God, 425 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 4: I don't have a good personality. I still struggle with 426 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 4: my temper. God, these people did me wrong. I didn't 427 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 4: have a good childhood. My boss plays favorites. God has 428 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 4: all right taken that into account. It doesn't have to 429 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 4: stop you. God went on to tell Jeremiah, say not 430 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 4: that you are too young. If you're going to reach 431 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 4: the fullness of your destiny, you have to get rid 432 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 4: of the say nots. Say not. This problem is too big. 433 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 4: Say not, I'll never get well. Say not, I don't 434 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 4: have the talent. Say not. I've had too many disadvantages, 435 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:27,760 Speaker 4: I have too many weaknesses. Gone as far as I 436 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 4: can before you were formed in your mother's womb. God 437 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:35,919 Speaker 4: equipped you and empowered you. You are not lacking. You 438 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 4: didn't get short changed. You are well able. Now, don't 439 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 4: let the say nots keep you from your destiny. Get 440 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 4: your mind, your words, your vision going in the right direction. 441 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 4: You are who God says you are. He says you 442 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 4: are strong, healthy, forgiven, redeemed successful. Now you may not 443 00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:00,200 Speaker 4: be all that yet, you have to believe it first, 444 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 4: and then you'll become it. If you'll do this, I 445 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,439 Speaker 4: believe and declare you are about to rise to a 446 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:11,199 Speaker 4: new level, overcome every obstacle, accomplish every dream, and become 447 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 4: everything God's created you to be in Jesus' name. If 448 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 4: you receive it, can you say it? 449 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 5: Men? 450 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 4: Today, we never like to close our broadcast without giving 451 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 4: you an opportunity to make Jesus the lord of your life. 452 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 4: Would you pray with me?
