1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: Hi, this is Joel and Victoria. Thanks for listening to

2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:06,360
Speaker 1: our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry. If you

3
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:09,040
Speaker 1: enjoy today's message, why don't you be a blessing and

4
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:11,880
Speaker 1: share it with a friend, reappreciate you and pray for

5
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 1: God's very best in your line. God bless you. It's

6
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:17,560
Speaker 1: great to be with you today, and I hope you'll

7
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 1: stay connected with us during the week through our daily podcast,

8
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,760
Speaker 1: our YouTube channel, social media, and you can come visit

9
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 1: us in person. We'd love to have you be a

10
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 1: part of one of our services. I'd like to start

11
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 1: with something funny. And one day in heaven, God said

12
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: to the men, I want you to form two lines.

13
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 1: One line is for the men who were the head

14
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,480
Speaker 1: of the house. The other line is for the men

15
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: who let the woman be the head of the house.

16
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 1: The line where the woman ran the house was one

17
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,160
Speaker 1: hundred miles long. The other line only had one man

18
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 1: in it. God said, men, I'm ashamed of you. I

19
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 1: created you to be the head, but only one man

20
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 1: stood up to make me proud. He looked at him

21
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 1: and said, son, tell them, how did you manage to

22
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 1: be the only one in this line. The man looked

23
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 1: confused and said, I don't know. My wife told me

24
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 1: to send here. Come on, say like you meant it.

25
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 1: This is my Bible. I am what it says. I am.

26
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 1: I have what it says I have. I can do

27
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: what it says I can do. Today I will be

28
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,839
Speaker 1: taught the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind

29
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 1: is alert, my heart is receptive. I will never be

30
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want

31
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 1: to talk to you today about turn down the noise.

32
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 1: We are living in the noisiest time in history. There's

33
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:45,119
Speaker 1: more technology today than ever before. We're inundated with social media,

34
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: twenty four hour news, hundreds of television channels. Marketing experts

35
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 1: are trained at how to get your attention, clickbaiting, headlines

36
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: exaggerated to see if you'll bite. People can contact us

37
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: to day easier than ever, phone, text, email, direct message.

38
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: I hear my phone buzzing in my sleep the other night.

39
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 1: It was vibrating by my bed three in the morning.

40
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,079
Speaker 1: I'd usually ignore it, but something said you better check it.

41
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 1: That's important. I reached over and picked it up. It

42
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 1: was a newsflash. It says there's a storm coming to Taiwan.

43
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 1: I thought, I don't need to know about a storm

44
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: in Taiwan. I need to sleep. But many people are

45
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: suffering from information overload. They've taken in so much news, facts, opinions, theories.

46
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: They wonder why they can't sleep, why they're irritable, don't

47
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 1: enjoy their family. They have too much noise in their life.

48
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 1: You can't listen to news for hours a day and

49
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 1: stay peaceful. You can't take in all the killings, accidents,

50
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:57,639
Speaker 1: wars and stay in faith. That's poisoning your spirit. If

51
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: you live on social media, read all all the gossip, arguing, competing, comparing,

52
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 1: you're not going to be your best. You have to

53
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 1: turn down the noise. There are forces trying to get

54
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 1: your attention, to get you distracted and bring divisiveness. Cause

55
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: you to be jealous, discontent, afraid. What if this happens?

56
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: Is getting so bad? God, sit in Isaiah. If you'll

57
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: keep your mind stayed on me, I will keep you

58
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 1: in perfect peace. We wonder why we don't have peace.

59
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,119
Speaker 1: Our mind is stayed on the wrong things. Now. I'm

60
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: not saying to never watch the news, but after a

61
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: few minutes, you have what you need. Hearing the same

62
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 1: thing for the next three hours. All that's gonna do

63
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: is get you stirred up and frustrated. Noise is not

64
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: only from technology, but we have people in life that

65
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 1: are noisy. A coworker doesn't like you, talks behind your back,

66
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: that negative chatter. Maybe a f is noisy. They always

67
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: have drama, something wrong. They're calling you to fix it.

68
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: As you gain more influence, God promotes you. You manage

69
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: the department, you lead the team at school. With that

70
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 1: promotion comes more noise. People will find fault and be

71
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 1: critical and jealous. Here's the key. You can't stop the

72
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,239
Speaker 1: noise from coming, but you can turn the noise down.

73
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: Be selective in what you give your time and attention to.

74
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,359
Speaker 1: Don't leave the news on at the house in the

75
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,919
Speaker 1: background all through the day, or even drive to and

76
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 1: from work with that constantly going into you. That's creating

77
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 1: the wrong atmosphere. How much noise are you allowing from

78
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 1: what coworkers are saying about you, or dwelling on the

79
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 1: medical report, worried about your finances? All that noise is

80
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 1: draining your energy, in taking your creativity and stealing your joy.

81
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: How much more peaceful would you be? How much happier

82
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,599
Speaker 1: would you live. If you start turning down the noise,

83
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 1: not eliminating it, that's not possible. You're never going to

84
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,600
Speaker 1: stop people from talking about you. Just quit dwelling on it.

85
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: They don't control your destiny. What they say can't stop

86
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 1: your purpose. God is your vindicator. He's fighting your battles.

87
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,840
Speaker 1: That noise is a distraction to try to get you

88
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 1: off course. Live worried and upset. One of the most

89
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: important things you have is your time. What you give

90
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 1: your attention to is incredibly valuable. If the enemy can

91
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 1: keep you distracted and focused on things that don't matter,

92
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: cluttered by the noise, then he can keep you from

93
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 1: your destiny. The scripture says to be aware of the

94
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 1: enemy's schemes and strategies. The noise is a strategy to

95
00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 1: steal your time, get your worried, frustrated, fighting battles that

96
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 1: don't matter. No, you have a destiny to fulfill. There's

97
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: a calling on your life, an assignment to accomplish. There's

98
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: nothing more the enemy would love than for you to

99
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 1: waste your time being distracted by the noise, frustrated over

100
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 1: things you can't change, responding to people that are not

101
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: a part of your destiny. Letting the negative chatter keep

102
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,919
Speaker 1: you worried and upset. Why don't you turn down the noise.

103
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: You have to keep your mind stayed on him, not

104
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: stayed on the news, not stayed on what your critics said,

105
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 1: stayed on social media, stayed on that relative's drama. Turn

106
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: that noise down, and you'll have the peace, the joy,

107
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: the favor to become who you were created to be.

108
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: When I get in on an airplane, I have some

109
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 1: noise canceling headphones that are always wearing, and what's interesting

110
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 1: is they don't stop the noise. The rumble of the

111
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 1: engine is still there, the flight attendants on the loud speaker,

112
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 1: other passengers talking, watching movies, still loud and noisy. These

113
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: headphones simply turn down the noise. In my mind, it's

114
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: not as loud to me. You need some imaginary noise

115
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 1: canceling headphones to go through life because there's gonna be chatter, gossip, controversy,

116
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: people talking, bad reports. You can't eliminate all that. But

117
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 1: when you have your mind stayed on him, it's like

118
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: you have those noise canceling headphones on. Even though it's

119
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 1: loud all around you, you're at peace. You know God's

120
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 1: in control, you know he's fighting your battles, so you're

121
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 1: calm in the chaos. You're at rest even when it's noisy.

122
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: But the mistake we make often is we try to

123
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 1: stop the noise, stop this person from saying things, and

124
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 1: stop this issue. But you'll never be able to stop

125
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 1: all the noise. You can't make people do what's right

126
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 1: and correct every problem. You have to learn to turn

127
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: the noise down. Don't let that get in your spirit.

128
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 1: A good friend of mine, it's very positive and upbeat.

129
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 1: But several years ago I could tell he was starting

130
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 1: to change, like he's bothered by something. He was more

131
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: serious and seemed worried. He told me later how he

132
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: was so concerned about our country and things going on

133
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 1: that he didn't like. He became consumed watching the news

134
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: and responding on social media, debating with people. He was

135
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 1: so wrought up and distraught by it all. He got

136
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:44,319
Speaker 1: to where he couldn't sleep at night, started having digestive problems,

137
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: his relationships were strained. All that divisiveness and bitterness began

138
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 1: to poison him on the inside. And it's good to pray,

139
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 1: be passionate, do what we can, but he was trying

140
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 1: to stop the noise, people to change their opinions. He

141
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: wasn't going to be happy unless everyone agreed with him.

142
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 1: You can't control what people do. Do your part and

143
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 1: then turn it over to God. He finally got so

144
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: frustrated he made the decision to stop watching the news.

145
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 1: Within a few weeks, he started sleeping soundly again. All

146
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: that insomnia went away. He'd been dealing with terrible anxiety,

147
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: and that went away too. Today he's back to his

148
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: normal self, happy, fun to be around. It makes a

149
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 1: difference what you're allowing in. If you let noise clutter

150
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 1: your mind, negative news, worried, divisiveness, it's not only going

151
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:49,239
Speaker 1: to take your joy, but it's going to affect you physically. Stress, frustration,

152
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: that's weakening our immune system where it doesn't fight off

153
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 1: disease like it should. Noise comes to us all in

154
00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: different ways. Maybe people that are not for you, worried

155
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 1: about your finances, something you're watching that's not doing any good.

156
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 1: It's just things to get your stirred up. Drama, controversy,

157
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 1: opinions that noise is keeping you from enjoying your family,

158
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 1: pursuing your dreams. If you're going to stay in peace,

159
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 1: you have to be on the offensive. It's not going

160
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 1: to happen by accidents. We're living in a day where

161
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: the noise has been turned up louder than ever. There's

162
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,959
Speaker 1: never been a time where it's been so divisive and

163
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: so many distractions, so much competing for our attention. Since

164
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 1: the noise has been turned up, we have to become

165
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: experts at turning down the noise, tuning out the chatter,

166
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 1: not dwelling on the drama. You have the volume control.

167
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,440
Speaker 1: You get to choose what you allow in your mind.

168
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 1: Sometimes I'll get a call on my cell phone and

169
00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 1: I look at the screen and it says potential. I

170
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 1: don't think twice. I don't need any more noise in

171
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 1: my life. I have enough people to take care of.

172
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:12,559
Speaker 1: I have enough challenges to overcome, enough dreams to accomplish

173
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 1: any chance I have. I'm going to turn down the noise.

174
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 1: I value my time. We should feel responsible for what

175
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 1: God has given us. Each day is a gift. We

176
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 1: are told to make the most of our time. You

177
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 1: can't be your best with a bunch of noise cluttering

178
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: your thinking, clouding your vision. Some of the things we're

179
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 1: allowing in our mind is like spam. It's serving no purpose.

180
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 1: It's a distractions that person trying to get you upset, coworker, gossiping,

181
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 1: listening to the news, driving home, making it irritable, lay

182
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,839
Speaker 1: it in bed, worried about that child, over and over.

183
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 1: That's noise trying to get you anxious, confused, overwhelmed, like

184
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,439
Speaker 1: you do on your phone. When you see that word spam,

185
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 1: you need to hit the end button. No thanks, I

186
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 1: don't have time for noise. I don't have time to

187
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: be distracted. I have a destiny to fulfill. See, so

188
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 1: much is fighting for your attention today. It's because peace

189
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 1: is power. When you're in peace, you're more creative. When

190
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 1: you're peaceful, you make better decisions. When your mind is

191
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: not cluttered. You can hear from God. Many times he's speaking,

192
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 1: but it's so noisy, so loud with news, drama and worry,

193
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 1: we can't hear him. He speaks in a still small voice.

194
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 1: One translation says a whisper. If you're going to hear

195
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 1: a whisper, you have to get quiet. If you're going

196
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 1: to stay on the best path for your life, you

197
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 1: have to clear out the things that are distracting, bringing

198
00:12:55,160 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 1: frustration and worry. It may mean spending less time with

199
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 1: certain people. Some people are peace dealers, no offense, but

200
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 1: they're noisy. They always have a problem. There's some kind

201
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 1: of drama. They'll try to draw you in. You have

202
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 1: enough drama in your own life. You don't need their drama.

203
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 1: Just because they call doesn't mean you have to answers.

204
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's not the right time. You don't have the

205
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,439
Speaker 1: emotional energy to deal with it. You have to protect

206
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: your peace, keep yourself emotionally healthy. But Joe, that wouldn't

207
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 1: be right if I don't answer, they may get upset.

208
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:43,719
Speaker 1: Usually the noisiest people make the most withdraws, but they

209
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 1: make the least deposits. They expect you to always come running,

210
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 1: keep them fixed, solve their problem, cheer them up. But

211
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 1: when you need something they're not around. Don't take on

212
00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 1: a false sense of responsibility. You are not respond for

213
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:05,199
Speaker 1: their happiness. Every person is responsible for their own happiness.

214
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 1: Be selective with whom you're spending time, who you are

215
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 1: allowing to get close to you. Are they adding value

216
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 1: making you better? Or are they just adding noise, drama, confusion.

217
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 1: That's a distraction. Always be kind, be respectful, but don't

218
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 1: let them control you. Don't let them dump their problems

219
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 1: expect you to fix them. If you don't take charge,

220
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 1: all this noise will clutter your life and keep you

221
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 1: from your purpose. Well, if I don't answer their call,

222
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: if I don't do what they expect, they may get irritated.

223
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 1: They may not be my friend anymore. God just answers

224
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 1: your prayer. How about the people at the office, people

225
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: you eat lunch with, maybe some of them talking bad

226
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: about the boss, don't light the company, and how this

227
00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 1: new policy is not fair, stirring up trouble, so in discord, gossiping, disgruntled.

228
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 1: The problem is that spirit can get off on you

229
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 1: where you become disgruntled, complaining, repeating negative things. That's poisoning you.

230
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: Why don't you find someplace else to eat lunch. Everyone

231
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 1: else may be noisy, but that's not who you are.

232
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 1: Keep your mind in peace, keep your spirit in faith.

233
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 1: This is one of the main things that holds people

234
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: back who they're spending time with. If you're hanging out

235
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 1: with noisy people, you're gonna get distracted, start to compromise,

236
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 1: become jealous. Don't let their noise keep you from your destiny.

237
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 1: If you'll make a change, God will bring your friends

238
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: that lift you up and not pull you down, people

239
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 1: that bring out the best in you and not the worst.

240
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 1: No one was more loving and caring than Jesus, But

241
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 1: he even knew that he couldn't meet all the needs

242
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 1: and fulfill everyone's expectations. He lets some people down. There

243
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 1: were crowds all around him, people needing healing, people needing prayer,

244
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 1: needing encouragement. But the scripture says he often withdrew to

245
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 1: a quiet place to be alone. Went up in the mountains.

246
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 1: He was dealing with all kinds of noise, demands, negative chatter,

247
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 1: people that didn't understand him, religious leaders trying to trick him.

248
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 1: He couldn't stop all the noise, but he didn't know

249
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 1: how to turn it down. Quiet as mind quiet, his

250
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 1: spirit lived from a place of peace on a regular basis.

251
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 1: We need to take inventory of what's in our mind,

252
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 1: pay attention to any clutter, worry, offense, fear. Do, like Jesus,

253
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 1: make that decision to get quiet and turn all that down,

254
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 1: come back to a place of peace. Years ago, I

255
00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: used to get my hair cut by this lady. She's

256
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:04,879
Speaker 1: very nice, very faithful, but she was so negative. Every

257
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:08,199
Speaker 1: time I went, she told me how mistreated she was,

258
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,119
Speaker 1: and how she couldn't pay her rent, and how she

259
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 1: was dealing with health issues, on and on, and I

260
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 1: went out of my way to help her paid her rent.

261
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,119
Speaker 1: Some called her mom to encourage her, and I was

262
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,879
Speaker 1: glad to do it. But after about four years of

263
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 1: hearing that same sad story, how unfair life was, I

264
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 1: started dreading getting my haircut. I didn't want to go

265
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 1: see her, but I felt obligated. I'm too nice. I

266
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,879
Speaker 1: didn't want to disappoint her, and man, if I don't go,

267
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 1: what's she gonna think? One day I realized what I'm

268
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:46,679
Speaker 1: telling you, that my peace is important, that my time

269
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: is valuable, that I cannot fulfill my destiny if I'm

270
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:56,880
Speaker 1: living with unnecessary noise, burden down with problems that are

271
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 1: not my responsibility. And I realized this lady didn't want

272
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 1: to change. She was addicted to drama, comfortable in dysfunction.

273
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 1: Living as a victim was all she had known. And

274
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 1: I believe in helping people going the extra mile, But

275
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 1: some people don't want to be helped. They won't put

276
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 1: forth the effort, be disciplined in their thinking and willing

277
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 1: to make changes. And the problem is if you don't

278
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 1: make a change, their noise will clutter your life. Their

279
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 1: drama will become your drama. To turn down the noise,

280
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,359
Speaker 1: you may have to spend less time with certain people.

281
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 1: Here's the deal. You shouldn't feel guilty. God has entrusted

282
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:45,919
Speaker 1: you with gifts, with time, and with purpose. You have

283
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 1: a responsibility to use what He's given you wisely. When

284
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 1: we come to the end of life, we're not gonna

285
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 1: answer to people. We're gonna answer to God. He's gonna

286
00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:00,080
Speaker 1: ask what did you do with what I gave you?

287
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 1: Were you a good steward of what I entrusted you with?

288
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,479
Speaker 1: If your mind is cluttered with noise, drama and news, man,

289
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 1: I got to keep them happy and guilty from my mistakes,

290
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: worried about my future. You won't step in to who

291
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 1: you were created to be. Why don't you do like Jesus,

292
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:23,399
Speaker 1: get along to a quiet place every day. You have

293
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:27,800
Speaker 1: to turn down the noise, the negative chatter, what people

294
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 1: are saying, the worry that tries to dominate, the doom

295
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 1: and gloom that might happen. You have the volume control.

296
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:40,440
Speaker 1: Stay in peace. That's where The power is when you're

297
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:44,359
Speaker 1: in peace, God is fighting your battles. When you're at rest,

298
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 1: angels go to work. Things will happen that you couldn't

299
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 1: make happen. This is what Peter did and Act chapter twelve,

300
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 1: King Herod had him arrested for sharing his faith. He

301
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 1: was put in the dungeon, his hands and feet in chain,

302
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: sixteen guards outside his cell. The Apostle James had been

303
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 1: killed just a little earlier. When Herod saw how this

304
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 1: pleased the people, he had Peter arrested. The next day,

305
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:17,119
Speaker 1: Peter was going on trial. He knew this could be

306
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,919
Speaker 1: the last night of his life. You could imagine the

307
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 1: noise in his mind, how loud those thoughts were telling him,

308
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 1: You're done, man, it's over. There's no way out of this, Peter,

309
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 1: all this worry, fear, panic. But I love what it

310
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:38,479
Speaker 1: says about Peter. While he was asleep that night, an

311
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 1: angel showed up to rescue him. How could he be asleep?

312
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: You would think Peter would be pacing the floor, stressed out,

313
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:51,239
Speaker 1: overcome with worry. But Peter knew this secret, how to

314
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 1: turn down the noise. I can see him before he

315
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,920
Speaker 1: laid down that night, Father, my life is in your hands.

316
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 1: I know nothing can snatch me away. If it's not

317
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 1: my time to go, I'm not gonna go. The scripture says,

318
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: those who have believed enter into rest. One sign that

319
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: you're believing is you're at peace. You're not worried, stressed out,

320
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: wondering if you're gonna make it. You know God is

321
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 1: in control. You've seen his faithfulness, so you too can

322
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 1: sleep in the storm. You trust in the trouble. You

323
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 1: rest when you could be worried. You may be in

324
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:35,440
Speaker 1: a storm. Now the negative voices are loud. This sickness

325
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:39,440
Speaker 1: is gonna finish you off. This addiction will always limit you.

326
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 1: You'll never see your family restored. It says, the enemy

327
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:47,960
Speaker 1: goes about as a roaring lion. The thoughts, the roars,

328
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 1: the threats. That's what he specializes in, being loud, noisy, overwhelming.

329
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 1: The good news is he's all bark and no bite.

330
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,359
Speaker 1: It's just a roar. He's not a lion. He's like

331
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 1: a lion. He doesn't control your destinies. He can't stop

332
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:10,239
Speaker 1: what God has purpose for you. Now, the key is,

333
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 1: don't let the roar intimidate you, cause you to quit

334
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 1: believing and give up on your dreams. You have the

335
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 1: volume control. Turn down the noise when you hear those

336
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 1: discouraging thoughts. Just imagine looking at your phone and seeing

337
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:29,400
Speaker 1: the word spam. That's all it is. Lies to get

338
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:33,400
Speaker 1: your worried, upset thinking it's never going to work out.

339
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 1: It's real simple. Hit the end button, don't give it

340
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 1: the time of day, turn down the negative chatter, and

341
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 1: turn up what God promised you. No weapon formed against

342
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 1: me will prosper. God is restoring health. Beckon to me.

343
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 1: As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

344
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 1: The middle of the night, an angel showed up in

345
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,840
Speaker 1: the prison. And this light shines so brightly like sunlight.

346
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:02,400
Speaker 1: All this commotion, but the scripture says Peter didn't wake up.

347
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: He was sleeping so soundly. The angel had to go

348
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:10,119
Speaker 1: shake him to wake him up. He was so at peace,

349
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:14,000
Speaker 1: so at rest, even though the next morning he could

350
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 1: have lost his life. That's what happens when you learn

351
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 1: to turn down the noise. You don't let the roars

352
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 1: and threats dominate your thinking, but you keep your mind

353
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,439
Speaker 1: stayed on him. That means keep it stayed on what

354
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:32,680
Speaker 1: he says about you. When that thought roars you'll always

355
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 1: have this illness. You saw the medical report. Turn that

356
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 1: down and turn up. With long life. God will satisfy me.

357
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: I will live and not die. You'll always struggle in

358
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 1: your finances. Your business isn't gonna make it. Turn that down,

359
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 1: turn up. I will lend and not borrow. I'll live

360
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:54,359
Speaker 1: under the open windows of heaven. When you can sleep

361
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 1: in the storm, you're showing God that you trust him.

362
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 1: When you're in peace, when you should be upset, you're

363
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 1: at rest, when you could be worried afraid. That's when

364
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 1: supernatural things will happen. Angels show up. You can see

365
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 1: that child. Your business takes off. Your health turns around. Now,

366
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: don't let the noise talk you out of it. The

367
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,239
Speaker 1: noise is a test. You can't get away from it.

368
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,119
Speaker 1: But you control the volume. You can turn it down.

369
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 1: The angel walked Peter out of the prison. Doors opened

370
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: of their own accord. The soldiers didn't see Peter leaving.

371
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 1: God made him invisible to the enemy. See. Herod thought

372
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 1: he was going to stop Peter, but the scripture says

373
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:44,359
Speaker 1: right after Peter got out, Herod got sick and suddenly died.

374
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,639
Speaker 1: Peter went on to fulfill his destiny. The psawmist said,

375
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,920
Speaker 1: the trap the enemy set for you, they will fall

376
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:56,440
Speaker 1: in themselves. Don't believe all the noise, the roars from

377
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: the lion telling you it's never going to work out.

378
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 1: What God started, he will finish. The enemy wouldn't be

379
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,640
Speaker 1: roaring if he didn't know amazing things were in your future.

380
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 1: Why don't you come back to a place of peace today?

381
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:15,439
Speaker 1: This is one reason we have digestive problems, can't sleep,

382
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 1: high blood pressure, Our mind is never at rest. There's

383
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 1: so much noise. We lay in bed at night. It's

384
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:26,680
Speaker 1: quiet in the room, but it's noisy in our mind.

385
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 1: Thoughts playing over and over. What if that angel doesn't

386
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:34,400
Speaker 1: show up, your health doesn't improve, and you don't meet anyone,

387
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,679
Speaker 1: Your company has layoffs. That noise won't go away on

388
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: its own. It's a decision you have to make that

389
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 1: you're gonna turn it down. You're not gonna keep dwelling

390
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:49,399
Speaker 1: on all the discouraging, fearful thoughts. You're gonna tune out

391
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 1: the negative news and chatter that's poisoning your spirits. And

392
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,920
Speaker 1: you're not gonna hang around people that are constantly dumping

393
00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:01,120
Speaker 1: their drama, distracting you from your purpose. You're gonna keep

394
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 1: your mind state on him. How much more peace would

395
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 1: you have if it wasn't stayed on the news, Stay

396
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,359
Speaker 1: on the dow, stay on the drama, Take inventory of

397
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 1: what's playing in your mind. Pay attention to what you're

398
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:20,120
Speaker 1: dwelling on. Life is too short to live it anxious, worried,

399
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 1: and trouble. Every morning you have to put on those

400
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 1: noise canceling headphones. You can't stop all the negative chatter,

401
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:31,400
Speaker 1: but you can keep it turned down. If you'll do this,

402
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 1: I believe and declare, like Peter, you're gonna sleep in

403
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 1: the storm. Supernatural peace. Angels are gonna show up and

404
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 1: open right doors, bring healing, favor, abundance, the fullness of

405
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 1: your destiny in Jesus' name, and if you receive it,

406
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 1: can you say amen? I'd like to give you an

407
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 1: opportunity to make Jesus the lord of your life. Would

408
00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: you pray with me? Just say, Lord, Jesus, I repent

409
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 1: of my sins. Come into my heart. I make you

410
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:09,479
Speaker 1: my Lord and savior. If you prayed that simple prayer,

411
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 1: we believe you got born again. We'd love to send

412
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,439
Speaker 1: you some free information on your new walk with the Lord.

413
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 1: You can text the number on the screen or go

414
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 1: to the website. But I hope you'll get into a

415
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 1: good Bible based church and keep God first place.

416
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 2: Life throws so much at us disappointments, failures, challenges. We

417
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 2: can feel so out of touch that we no longer

418
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 2: recognize ourselves.

419
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,120
Speaker 1: Life has a way of changing us. At one time,

420
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,440
Speaker 1: we were outgoing and excited about our dreams. But when

421
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 1: we go through disappointments and people do us wrong, it's

422
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:48,120
Speaker 1: easy to lose that positive, passionate person that we used

423
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 1: to be. In my new book, Rediscovering the Forgotten You,

424
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,360
Speaker 1: I'll help you get back to who you really are,

Speaker 1: the joyful you, the confident you, the talented youth. It's

426
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 1: not too late. You haven't been through too much. You

427
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,719
Speaker 1: may have lost part of yourself, but you can find yourself.

428
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: God is in the business of restoring what was lost,

429
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:11,560
Speaker 1: healing what was broken. You haven't seen the best version

430
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,200
