1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,600
Speaker 1: Hi, this is Jolan Victoria. Thanks so much for listening

00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:05,600
Speaker 1: to the podcast and thanks for.

3
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:06,800

00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 1: and favor filled.

6
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,800
Speaker 2: God bless you today and enjoy the message. Well, God

7
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:19,240
Speaker 2: bless you. It's always a joy to come into your homes.

8
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:20,279
Speaker 2: We love you.

9
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:22,920
Speaker 1: If you're ever in our area, I hope you'll stop

10
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:24,919
Speaker 1: by and be a part of one of our services.

11
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 1: I promise you, these are the finest people in all

12
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 1: of Houston, Texas right here at Lakewood. We'll make you

13
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,920
Speaker 1: feel at home. Come on out and see us sometime.

14
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 1: Thanks for tuning in. Thanks again for coming out today.

15
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,680
Speaker 1: And I like to get started each week with something funny,

16
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 1: and I heard about this mother. She was making breakfast

17
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,840
Speaker 1: for her young boys. Ryan was five and Kevin was three.

18
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: They begin to argue over who should get the first pancake.

19
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,519
Speaker 1: The mom saw this as an opportunity to teach them

20
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 1: a lesson. She said, boys, boys, if Jesus were here,

21
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: he would say, let my brother have the first pancake.

22
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 1: Ryan turned to his younger brother and said, okay, Kevin,

23
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:03,639
Speaker 1: you be Jesus.

24
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 2: Hold up your Bible and say it like you mean it.

25
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: This is my Bible. I am what it says I am.

26
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 1: I have what it says I have. I can do

27
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: what it says I can do. Today I will be

28
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:21,119
Speaker 1: taught the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind

29
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:24,679
Speaker 1: is alert, my heart is receptive. I will never be

30
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 1: the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want

31
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 1: to talk to you today about speaking faith into your future.

32
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,040
Speaker 2: Our words have creative power.

33
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: Whenever we speak something out, either good or bad, we

34
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,759
Speaker 1: are giving life to what we're saying. And too many

35
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: people go around saying negative things about themselves, about their family,

36
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 1: about their future, things like I'll never be successful. This

37
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 1: sickness is going to get the best of me. Business

38
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: is so slow. I don't think I'm going to make it.

39
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: This eason is coming, I'll probably get it. They don't

40
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: realize they are prophesying their future.

41
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 2: The scripture says we will.

42
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 1: Eat the fruit of our words. That means we're going

43
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 1: to get exactly what we've been saying. Here's the key.

44
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: You've got to send your words out in the direction

45
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,959
Speaker 1: you want your life to go. You cannot talk defeat

46
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 1: and expect to have victory. You can't talk lack and

47
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 1: expect to have abundance. You will produce what you've been saved.

48
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 1: If you want to know what you're going to be

49
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 1: like five years from now, just listen to what you're

50
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: saying about yourself. With our words, we can either bless

51
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 1: our future or we can curse our future. That's why

52
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,799
Speaker 1: we should never say I'm not a good parent, I'm unattractive,

53
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: I'm clumsy, i can't do anything right.

54
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 2: I'll probably get laid off.

55
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: No, those thoughts may come to your mind, but don't

56
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: make the mistake of verbalizing them. The moment you speak

57
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: it out o you allow them to take root. There

58
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 1: have been plenty of times where I've thought something negative

59
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: and I'm just about to say it, but I'll catch

60
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,519
Speaker 1: myself and think, no, I'm gonna zip it up. I'm

61
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 1: not going to speak defeat into my future. I'm not

62
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 1: going to speak failure over my life. I'm gonna turn

63
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 1: it around and speak favor into my future. I'm going

64
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 1: to declare I'm blessed, I'm strong, I'm healthy. This is

65
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 1: going to be a great year. When you do that,

66
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: you are blessing your future. I remember when our architects

67
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 1: told us that it was going to cost one hundred

68
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: million dollars to renovate this place, the former Compact Center.

69
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 2: After I got up off the ground, I.

70
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: Thought, that's impossible. I could never raise that much money.

71
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: There's no way that's going to happen. The thoughts were there,

72
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: but I knew better than to verbalize them. My attitude was,

73
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 1: if I'm going to prophesy my future, I'm gonna prophesize

74
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: something good. I'm not going to say what I feel.

75
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: I'm not going to say what it looks like in

76
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: the natural. No, I'm going to say what God says

77
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 1: about me. My declaration was God is supplying all of

78
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: our needs.

79
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 2: He is Jehovah Jirah, the Lord, our provider.

80
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: This may seem impossible, but I know God can do

81
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: the impossible. Where God gives vision, he always provides provision.

82
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 1: I made sure to have a report of victory. Proverbs

83
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 1: eighteen twenty one says life and death are in the

84
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 1: power of our tongue. What are you saying about your future?

85
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 1: What are you saying about your family? What are you

86
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: saying about your finances? Make sure the words you are

87
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 1: sending out are in the direction you want your life

88
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: to go. If you're a baseball fan, you probably know

89
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:52,159
Speaker 1: who Jose Lima is. During the nineteen nineties, he was

90
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 1: a star pitcher for the Houston Astros. One season he

91
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: won twenty games was considered one of the best pictures.

92
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 2: In the league.

93
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,479
Speaker 1: But something interesting happened when the Astros moved from the

94
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: Astrodome to their new ballpark downtown. The fence in left

95
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: field was much closer than the fence in the Astrodome,

96
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: and of course this favors the hitters makes it more

97
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 1: difficult on the pitchers. The first time Jose Lima went

98
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,160
Speaker 1: to the new ballpark, he stood on the mound. When

99
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,279
Speaker 1: he looked out into left field and saw how close

100
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 1: the fence was, the first words out of his mouth.

101
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 2: Were, I'll never be able to pitch in here. The

102
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 2: fence is way too close. Do you know?

103
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,840
Speaker 1: He went from being a twenty game winner to being

104
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 1: a sixteen game loser. It was one of the biggest

105
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 1: negative turnarounds in Astro's history.

106
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,679
Speaker 2: What happened he prophesied his future.

107
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 1: Those negative thoughts came, and instead of ignoring them, he

108
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 1: made the mistake of speaking them out. When you speak

109
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: it out, you're giving life to your faith. To what

110
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 1: it says in Proverbs, we are snared by the words

111
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: of our mouth. I remember growing up there was a

112
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,359
Speaker 1: gentleman that used to work for our church. He owned

113
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 1: his own company, and he and his men would come

114
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 1: over and take care of the grounds, make repairs. He

115
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 1: was a very nice man, kind and friendly, but he

116
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: always had a negative report. Every time I talked to him,

117
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: he told me how hard life was, and how business

118
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 1: was slow, and how some of his equipment wasn't working,

119
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 1: and he was having problems at home, and one of

120
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 1: his children was acting up on and on. I saw

121
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: him twice a week for probably ten years. I cannot

122
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: remember one time that he did not have a negative report.

123
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: And I'm not making light of his situation. The point

124
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: is he was prophesying defeat. He was cursing his future.

125
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 1: He didn't realize he was being snared by the words

126
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,839
Speaker 1: of his mouth. And what's interesting, when he was about

127
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 1: fifty five years old, he got very sick.

128
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 2: He spent the next two or three years in.

129
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 1: And out of hospitals. He ended up dying a very sad,

130
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: lonely death. I couldn't help but think about that's exactly

131
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: what he had talked about his whole life, how he

132
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 1: wasn't going to make it, and how hard life was.

133
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 2: He got what he was calling in.

134
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 1: You may be in a difficult time right now, but

135
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 1: let me challenge you. Don't use your words to describe

136
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: the situation. Use your words to change the situation. Declare victory,

137
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 1: Declare health, Declare favor, Declare abundance. You are giving life

138
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: to your faith by what you're saying all through the day.

139
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: We should go around saying I have the favor of God,

140
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: I can do all things through Christ, I'm blessed, I'm strong,

141
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 1: I'm healthy.

142
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 2: When you do that, you just blessed your life. You

143
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 2: just spoke favor into your future.

144
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: If you get up in the morning feeling the blaws,

145
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: don't ever say this is gonna be a lousy day.

146
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: I don't want to go to work. I'm tired of

147
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: dealing with these children. Now get up and say, this

148
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: is gonna be a great day. I'm excited about my future.

149
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: Something good is going to happen to me. You've got

150
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: to send your words out in the direction you want

151
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 1: your life to go. Maybe you've been through a disappointment,

152
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: a relationship, didn't work out, you didn't get.

153
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 2: The promotion you were hoping for.

154
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 1: But instead of complaining, saying, well, I should have known it.

155
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 1: I never get any good breaks, just my luck. No,

156
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 1: your declaration should be I know when one door closes,

157
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 1: God's gonna open up another door. What was meant for

158
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 1: my harm, God's gonna use to my advantage. I'm not

159
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,439
Speaker 1: only gonna come out, I'm gonna come out better off

160
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 1: than I was before.

161
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 2: Have a report of victory. Here's what I've learned.

162
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: You believe what you say about yourself more than what

163
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 1: anybody else says. That's why, on a regular basis, we

164
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 1: should say I'm blessed, I'm healthy, I'm strong, I'm valuable,

165
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 1: I'm talented, I have a bright future. Those words go

166
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,439
Speaker 1: out of your mouth and come right back into your

167
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 1: own ears.

168
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 2: Over time, they will create.

169
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: The same image on the inside. Was reading about this

170
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 1: doctor in Europe. He had these patients that were very sick,

171
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 1: and they had been treated by traditional means, but they

172
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,959
Speaker 1: had not gotten any better, and so he gave them a.

173
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 2: Very unusual prescription.

174
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: He had them say, three or four times an hour,

175
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: I'm getting better and better every day in every way.

176
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: Over the next few months, he had remarkable results.

177
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 2: Many of those.

178
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: Patients that had not improved with traditional medications, all of

179
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 1: a sudden, they begin to get better and better. What

180
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: happened as they heard themselves saying over and over, I'm

181
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 1: getting better, improving my health is coming back. Those words

182
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: begin to create a new image on the inside. Before long,

183
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:12,680
Speaker 1: they started seeing themselves strong, healthy and home. Once you

184
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 1: get a picture of it on the inside, then God

185
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 1: can bring it to pass on the outside. Some of

186
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 1: you would see your life go to a whole new

187
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,440
Speaker 1: level if you just zip up the negative words and

188
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:29,680
Speaker 1: start speaking faith and victory into your future. I know

189
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 1: people that are always tired and run down. You know what,

190
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 1: They're constantly saying, I'm so tired. I just don't have

191
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:40,079
Speaker 1: any energy. They've talked about it so long it's become

192
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 1: a reality.

193
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 2: Do you know.

194
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 1: The more we talk about something, the more we draw

195
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 1: it in, just like you're feeding it.

196
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 2: If you get up in the morning.

197
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 1: And just talk about how you feel, how you're tired,

198
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 1: and how you're not going to make it, you're defeating yourself.

199
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 2: You're digging your own home. Now, don't talk about the problem.

200
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:01,480
Speaker 2: The talk about the solution.

201
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: In fact, the scripture says, let the weak say I

202
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 1: am strong. Notice it doesn't say, let the week talk

203
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 1: about their weakness. Let the week call five friends and

204
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:18,319
Speaker 1: discuss their weakness. Let the week complain about their weakness. No,

205
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:23,319
Speaker 1: it says, in effect, let the weak say exactly opposite

206
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 1: of how they feel. In other words, don't talk about

207
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 1: the way you are, talk about the way you want

208
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 1: to be.

209
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 2: If you get up in the morning.

210
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: Feeling tired and lethargic, instead of complaining more than ever,

211
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: you need to declare, I am strong in the Lord,

212
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 1: I am full of energy. My strength is being renewed.

213
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 1: This is going to be a great day. When you

214
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 1: do that, it'll not only change how you feel, it'll

215
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 1: change your attitude. You won't go out with a weak,

216
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:57,559
Speaker 1: defeated victim mentality. You'll go out with a victor mentality,

217
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 1: with a spring in your steath, a smile on your face,

218
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 1: with your shoulders back. Those words can literally help lift

219
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,679
Speaker 1: your spirit and cause you to see yourself and your

220
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 1: circumstances in a whole new light. But the reason many

221
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,479
Speaker 1: people have low self esteem and a poor self image

222
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: is because they're constantly saying negative things about themselves. I'm unattractive,

223
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 1: I'm overweghed, I'm slow, I'm not talented. I'll never get promoted.

224
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:33,319
Speaker 1: They've heard that so much now it's ingrained on the inside,

225
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,839
Speaker 1: and it's setting the limits for their life. I had

226
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 1: a gentleman tell me after service last week, Joel, I'm

227
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,839
Speaker 1: a terrible father. I made a lot of mistakes. I

228
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: always knew I wouldn't be a good parent. I told

229
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: him what I'm telling you. Quit saying you're not a

230
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 1: good father. Quit speaking defeat over your life. As long

231
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,560
Speaker 1: as you're saying it, you're allowing it to happen. I said,

232
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 1: you may not be a good father right now, but

233
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:04,079
Speaker 1: you need to start declaring and calling yourself a good father.

234
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 1: As you make these positive declarations, it'll, over time begin

235
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 1: to change the image on the inside, and you'll become

236
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 1: exactly what you're declaring. But as long as you've convinced

237
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 1: yourself that you're not a good parent, you made too

238
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: many mistakes, and you're too old, or you're too young,

239
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 1: or you're too washed up, that's going to keep you

240
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,680
Speaker 1: from rising any higher. One of the best things I

241
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,559
Speaker 1: could ever teach you is don't be against yourself.

242
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 2: In life. We already have enough things against.

243
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: Us, people, circumstances, negative thoughts, criticism.

244
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,960
Speaker 2: The last thing you need is for you to be

245
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 2: against yourself.

246
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 1: Now, I know people, they're always putting themselves down, beating

247
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:53,199
Speaker 1: themselves up, finding fault with everything that they do. They

248
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 1: wonder why they don't have any joy, why they don't.

249
00:13:56,160 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 2: Have any victory. It's because they're against themselves. Let me

250
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 2: challenge you.

251
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 1: Don't ever say another negative word about yourself. You may

252
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 1: feel like you're the worst parent in the world, doesn't matter.

253
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 1: Don't say I'm not a good parent. Put a watch

254
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 1: over your mouth. Don't ever say I'll never lose this weight,

255
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 1: I'll never get out of debt, I'll never be successful, Joel,

256
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 1: I'll never I don't have what it takes. No, zip

257
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 1: that up, and instead of talking about the way you are,

258
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 1: start talking about the way you want to be.

259
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 2: That's what faith is all about. And understand.

260
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 1: It is just as wrong to criticize yourself as it

261
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 1: is to criticize someone else. When you criticize yourself, you

262
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: are criticizing God's very own creation. You might as well

263
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: look up and say, God, you didn't do a very

264
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: good job with me. No. You may have areas to

265
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 1: improve in we all do, of course, but the way

266
00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 1: we do it is not by being hard on our

267
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 1: self and saying I'm a terrible parent, i can't do

268
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 1: anything right, I'm just a loser.

269
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 2: Now, if you talk like that, it's going to make

270
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 2: you do worse.

271
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: You need to change what you're saying about yourself.

272
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 2: Now.

273
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 1: I wonder what would happen if we would take five

274
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 1: minutes a day and make positive declarations over our life.

275
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 1: Before you leave the house, look at yourself in the

276
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: mirror and say, I'm talented, I'm creative, I'm healthy, I've

277
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: got a good personality.

278
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 2: People like to be around me.

279
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 1: Some of you women have never once said I'm beautiful.

280
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 1: You men have never said I'm handsome, I'm attractive. You're

281
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 1: too busy, focused on your faults, comparing yourself to a coworker,

282
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 1: feeling inferior because you don't look like the girl on

283
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: the cover of the magazine that's been airbrushed and touched

284
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 1: up and skinned up and trimmed up.

285
00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 2: She's got twenty seven people working.

286
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 1: On her, styling her hair, doing her makeup, bringing her

287
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 1: different clothes, the perfect lighting, the perfect angles, wind blowing

288
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 1: through her hair. I mean, even my brother Paul might

289
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 1: look good if he had that much help. Here's what

290
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Just as you are, you are beautiful. You

291
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:24,520
Speaker 1: are one of a kind. You are a masterpiece. You

292
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 1: are a prized possession. When you wake up in the

293
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: morning and look at yourself in the mirror, instead of

294
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 1: getting depressed, instead of saying, oh, man, look how old

295
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 1: I look.

296
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 2: Look at this gray hair, look at these wrinkles.

297
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 1: Now you need to smile and say, good morning, you,

298
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 1: beautiful thing, Good morning, you, handsome thing, Good morning you blessed, prosperous, successful, strong, talented, creative, confidence, secure, disciplined, focused.

299
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 2: Highly favored, child of the most high God. Get it

300
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 2: on the ends. Speak faith over your future.

301
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 1: I talked to a gentleman a couple of years ago

302
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 1: after the service. He had lost one hundred and fifty pounds.

303
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:11,959
Speaker 1: He looked fantastic, like a different person.

304
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 2: He was beaming with joy.

305
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:15,919
Speaker 1: And I asked him how he did it, and he

306
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 1: explained how growing up he had a very defeated mindset.

307
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: For years he had gone around saying, I'll never lose

308
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 1: this weight. Everybody in my family is overweight. I'm not disciplined,

309
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 1: I'm not focused. I just don't have.

310
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 2: What it takes.

311
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 1: Those negative words had created the wrong image. On the inside,

312
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: he saw himself as a failure. One day he heard

313
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 1: me talking about speaking victory over your life, and he

314
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 1: took it to heart. Every morning and all through the day,

315
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 1: he started declaring, I weigh what.

316
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:49,119
Speaker 2: I should weigh.

317
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 1: I'm thin, I'm healthy, I'm disciplined, I'm focused, I have

318
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 1: what it takes. At the time he was saying it,

319
00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 1: not one thing he was saying was true, but he

320
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 1: understood this principle.

321
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 2: He was prophesying his future.

322
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 1: He was sending his words out in the direction he

323
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 1: wanted his life to go. And no, it didn't happen overnight,

324
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,719
Speaker 1: but little by little he became exactly what he had

325
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:18,639
Speaker 1: been saying. My question for us today is are you

326
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 1: sending your words in the direction you want your life

327
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 1: to go? Are you speaking defeat or victory into your future?

328
00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: Your life is moving toward what you're constantly saying. There's

329
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,719
Speaker 1: a story in the scripture about this lady. She had

330
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 1: been sick for many years, and she spent all of

331
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,920
Speaker 1: her money going to different doctors trying to get better.

332
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:44,119
Speaker 1: Didn't help she continued to get worse. One day, the

333
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 1: scripture says, she heard that Jesus was coming through her town.

334
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:52,919
Speaker 1: The scripture says she kept saying to herself, what was

335
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:53,439
Speaker 1: she saying?

336
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 2: I'll never get well. I can't believe this is happening

337
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 2: to me.

338
00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 1: No, she kept saying, when I gets to Jesus, I

339
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:05,679
Speaker 1: know I will be made home. Notice she wasn't talking defeat.

340
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 1: She was talking victory. Right in the middle of the difficulty.

341
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 1: She was prophesying something good, over and over.

342
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 2: Day after day. She just kept.

343
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 1: Saying, healing is coming my way, Brighter days are up ahead.

344
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 1: When Jesus got to town, she started making her way

345
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,679
Speaker 1: toward him, and she kept speaking these words of faith.

346
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,480
Speaker 2: She got closer and closer.

347
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 1: Finally she could see Jesus, but it was very crowded.

348
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 1: The people were packed all around him. Looked like it

349
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 1: would be impossible. But instead of complaining, she just kept

350
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 1: speaking these words of faith. This is my time, this

351
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 1: is my moment. Things are changing in my favor. You

352
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 1: know the story. She pressed through the crowd. When she

353
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 1: touched the edge of jesus robe, instantly, the scripture says,

354
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 1: she was made home.

355
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 2: But notice the principle.

356
00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:01,639
Speaker 1: Whatever you're constantly saying, you are mood moving toward. If

357
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 1: you're always saying I'll never get out of debt, this

358
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 1: economy's too bad, you're moving toward debt, lack, and struggle.

359
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 1: If you're saying my marriage isn't going to last, we

360
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 1: just don't get along, you're moving toward a breakup separation.

361
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 2: If you're saying this sickness is.

362
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 1: Going to be the end of me, I don't think

363
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: I'm going to make it. You're moving toward mediocrity and defeat.

364
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 1: But if you'll just send your words out in a

365
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 1: different direction, your life will start going in a different direction.

366
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 1: When you say I'm blessed, you're moving toward blessing. When

367
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 1: you say I have the favor of God, you're moving

368
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 1: toward increase in promotion. When you say this is going

369
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 1: to be a great day, I'm excited about my future,

370
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:54,640
Speaker 1: you're moving towards supernatural opportunities, divine connections, explosive blessings. How

371
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: about this, When you say I'm going to break this addiction,

372
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 1: I am not going to live bad by this alcohol,

373
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:05,160
Speaker 1: by these drugs, by this anger, by these bad habits.

374
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 2: When you talk like that.

375
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 1: You're moving toward freedom, you're moving toward breakthroughs, you're moving

376
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:16,640
Speaker 1: toward total victory. Pay attention to what you're saying about yourself.

377
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 2: Your life is moving in that direction.

378
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 1: That's why I encourage us to get up every day

379
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 1: and say, this is going to be an Ephesians three,

380
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 1: twenty decade. God is doing exceedingly abundantly above and beyond.

381
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 2: You talk like that, and.

382
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 1: You're moving toward unprecedented favor. You are paving the way

383
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 1: for God to take your places that you've never even

384
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 1: dreamed of. Friends, there's incredible power in what we're saying.

385
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 1: With our words. We are sealing our destiny. I talk

386
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 1: to a well known actor the other day. He's an

387
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 1: older gentleman, and he was very down on himself, down

388
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:56,200
Speaker 1: on his future.

389
00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 2: He said, Joel, I'm just a has been good.

390
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: He's interested in me anymore. I never get offered any

391
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: good roles. I've peaked and it's all downhill from here.

392
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 1: I says, sir, don't speak that defeat over your life.

393
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 2: God has greater victories in your future.

394
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 1: The scripture says the favor of God is for a lifetime.

395
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 1: That means if you're still breathing.

396
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 2: You have God's favor.

397
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,440
Speaker 1: It says in Proverbs, the path of the righteous gets

398
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:27,640
Speaker 1: brighter and brighter.

399
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 2: Your future is supposed to get better and better.

400
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 1: This man was in his late eighties, but I reminded him,

401
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 1: look at Betty White. She's doing pretty good. I knew

402
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,639
Speaker 1: art link letter at ninety eight years old. He's still

403
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:47,120
Speaker 1: traveled the globe and spoke hundreds of times each year.

404
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,440
Speaker 1: Quit saying I'm washed up. I'm just a has been.

405
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,880
Speaker 1: I've seen my best days. No, your declaration should be

406
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 1: My greatest victories are still in my future. My greatest

407
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,879
Speaker 1: accomplishments are still in front of me. I am the righteous,

408
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 1: so I know my path.

409
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 2: Is getting brighter and brighter.

410
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,400
Speaker 1: I know God's favor is not just for a season.

411
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:13,920
Speaker 1: He promised it's for a lifetime. So I'm expecting something good.

412
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 1: You got to get in agreement with God. He has

413
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: an awesome plan for your life. The victories God has

414
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 1: in your future are going to make the ones you've

415
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 1: seen in the past hell in comparison.

416
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:28,160
Speaker 2: But here's the key.

417
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 1: With our words, we can stop God's best plan from

418
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 1: coming to pass if we go around talking lack defeat.

419
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: How we don't have what it takes. We're too old,

420
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:43,200
Speaker 1: we're too young. Those negative words will keep us from

421
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:47,440
Speaker 1: rising higher and really experiencing the fullness of what God

422
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 1: has in store. This is what happened to a young

423
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 1: man in the scripture. His name was Jeremiah. God said

424
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:58,359
Speaker 1: to him, Jeremiah, I have chosen you to be a

425
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 1: prophet to the nations. I've called you to do something great.

426
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,880
Speaker 1: When Jeremiah heard this, he was very young, very afraid.

427
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 1: He said, God, I can't do that. I can't speak

428
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,159
Speaker 1: to the nations. I'm too young. I wouldn't even know

429
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 1: what to say. God answered him back and said, Jeremiah,

430
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 1: say not.

431
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 2: That you are too young.

432
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: Notice God immediately stopped his negative words.

433
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 2: Why was that.

434
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 1: God knew if Jeremiah went around saying I'm too young,

435
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: I don't have what it takes, I'll never be able

436
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 1: to do this, he would get exactly what he was saying.

437
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: God knew those words have created power and it would

438
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 1: stop him from his best plan. So he simply said, Jeremiah,

439
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:47,920
Speaker 1: stop saying that. The scripture goes on to tell how

440
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 1: Jeremiah changed what he was saying. He went on to

441
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,879
Speaker 1: become a great prophet to the nations in the same way,

442
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 1: God has called every one of us to do something great.

443
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 1: He's given you gifts, dreams, goals. He's put desires on

444
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,879
Speaker 1: the inside. But it's easy to do like Jeremiah and

445
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 1: say God, I can't do that. Too old, too young,

446
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 1: made too many mistakes, come from the wrong family.

447
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 2: I don't have what it takes.

448
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,360
Speaker 1: God is saying to us what he said to Jeremiah.

449
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 1: Stop saying that. Don't curse your future. Those negative words

450
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 1: can stop God's best plan. Our declaration should be I

451
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 1: will become everything God's created me to be. I am

452
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 1: well able to fulfill my destiny. Friends, you are prophesying

453
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 1: your future. Pay attention to what you're saying about yourself.

454
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 1: Learn to bless your future and not curse it. Remember

455
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: we are moving.

456
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 2: Toward what we're constantly saying.

457
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 1: Get up every morning and say, this is going to

458
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 1: be a great day. Blessings are chasing me down. The

459
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 1: favor of God is surrounding me. Goodness and mercy or

460
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:04,360
Speaker 1: fault following me. Opportunities are coming my way. I'm excited

461
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 1: about this day.

462
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:07,400
Speaker 2: When you do that, you're.

463
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: Calling in favor, calling in increase, calling in promotion.

464
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 2: Some of you have spent years.

465
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:17,360
Speaker 1: Calling in defeat, calling in lack, calling in bad breaks.

466
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,359
Speaker 1: Thank God, today is a new day. If you will

467
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 1: change your words, you can change your world. Let me

468
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 1: challenge you, put a watch over your mouth. When the

469
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,160
Speaker 1: negative thoughts come, and they do come to all of us,

470
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 1: and you're at tempted to speak them out, just catch

471
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 1: yourself and say no, I'm not going to give life

472
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:41,200
Speaker 1: to this defeat by speaking it out. If you will

473
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: train yourself to only speak victory, to only bless your future,

474
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: then you will see God show up and do amazing things.

475
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 2: He will open doors that no man can shut.

476
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:57,160
Speaker 1: He'll turn negative situations around. You'll accomplish your goals and dreams.

477
00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 1: And I believe and declare you will become everything God's

478
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 1: created you to be, and you will have everything God's

479
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:05,359
Speaker 1: intended for you to have.

480
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 2: Amen. Do you receive it today?

481
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 1: We never like to close our broadcast without giving you

482
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,879
Speaker 1: an opportunity to make Jesus the lord of your life.

483
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:19,679
Speaker 1: Would you pray with me? Just say, Lord, Jesus, I

484
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 1: repent of my sins. Come into my heart. I make

485
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:28,439
Speaker 1: you my lord and savior. Friends, if you prayed that

486
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 1: simple prayer. We believe you got born again. Get in

487
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 1: a good Bible based church, Keep God first place. He's

488
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 1: going to take your places that you've never dreamed of.
