I believe 39 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 6: God has amazing things in your future. I hope you 40 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 6: enjoy this message. 41 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 4: Have you ever felt that your hands were tied? 42 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 6: And what I mean by that is if you ever 43 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 6: looked at a situation in your life and you think, 44 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 6: I don't know how this can change. I don't know 45 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 6: how this can possibly work out. Maybe it's someone else's involved, 46 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,279 Speaker 6: and so you think, oh no, they have to change 47 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 6: before my situation can change. Or maybe you have a 48 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 6: big dream in your heart. You can see it from 49 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 6: a distance, but then you realize, I don't have the resources, 50 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 6: I don't have the education, I don't know the right people. See, 51 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 6: that's when we feel like our hands are tied. But 52 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 6: I want to encourage you with something this morning, and 53 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 6: really just it's a reminder to you this morning. Your 54 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 6: hands may be tied, but God's hands are never tied. 55 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 6: God's hands are never tied, and his power. 56 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 4: Is limitless in your life. 57 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 6: See, that's what we need to allow to sink down 58 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 6: into our hearts and minds. Hey, when it looks impossible 59 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 6: to me in the natural, I have to remind myself 60 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 6: that I serve a supernatural God, that my God has 61 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 6: all the power in all the world. When we look 62 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 6: at things, we see it from a natural perspective. But 63 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 6: God is saying to us today, I haven't asked you 64 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 6: to walk by sight. 65 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 4: I've asked you to walk by faith. 66 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 6: I've asked you to remember my great power towards you. Listen, 67 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 6: we cannot limit our options in life by what we see, 68 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,239 Speaker 6: because if we do, we will live a very limited life. 69 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 6: And can I tell you this most of the time. 70 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 6: When God asks you to do something, it's going to 71 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:34,119 Speaker 6: be over your head. It's going to be bigger than yourself. 72 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 6: Because see, if it wasn't, you wouldn't need God, you 73 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 6: wouldn't need to walk by faith, because you could do 74 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 6: it in your own abilities and your own strength. So 75 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 6: be encouraged today if you feel a little overwhelmed and 76 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 6: a little over your head, because that's when God can 77 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 6: come in if you won't limit His power in your life. 78 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 4: So I'm seventy eight says this. 79 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 6: It says they vexed the Holy One of his because 80 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 6: they did not remember his power. 81 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 4: They turned back and limited God. 82 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 6: The children of Israel came against obstacles, but they didn't 83 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 6: remember God's power. They forgot that he redeemed them from 84 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 6: the oppressor. They didn't think about that he brought water 85 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 6: out of a rock in the desert so they could 86 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 6: drink it. Frustrated God, and it said they turned back 87 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 6: and limited his power. Now, I just want to stop 88 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 6: right there for just a minute, because that word limited 89 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 6: does not apply to God. 90 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 4: God is limitless. 91 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 6: But they limited God's power by their own mindset, their 92 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 6: own way of thinking. They turned back and gave up 93 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 6: too soon, because they didn't consider all the miraculous things 94 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 6: God had done in the past. All they considered was 95 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 6: the obstacle that was in front of them. Have you 96 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 6: ever stopped doing something you thought God wanted you to do, 97 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 6: Maybe gave up a little too soon because you felt insignificant, 98 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 6: Maybe you were fearful. Maybe you just drew a little 99 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 6: line around you and thought, you know what, I'd like 100 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 6: to do it, but I just can't. That's exactly what 101 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 6: the children of Israel did. They stopped when they should 102 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 6: have continue to move forward. Moses finally got them to 103 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 6: the border of the promised land. Took them a long time, 104 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 6: all those stops. They finally got to the border. Moses 105 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 6: got him there and he said, Okay, we're gonna we're 106 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 6: gonna take this land that God has promised us. But 107 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 6: first we're gonna send some of the leaders ahead and 108 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 6: we're gonna let them check out the land, and they're 109 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 6: gonna bring a report back to us, Hoping I'm sure 110 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 6: that they would rally the troops. So he sent some 111 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 6: of the men in to spy out the land, and 112 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 6: when they returned, they returned with this report. They said, Moses, 113 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 6: the land is amazing. It's full of milk and honey. 114 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 6: It's green, it's lush. The vegetation there is beautiful plenty 115 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 6: for us to eat. But have you ever had a butt? 116 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 6: I like to butt. But there are giants in the land, 117 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 6: they said, we look like grasshoppers compared to the people 118 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 6: in the land. It spread like wildfire throughout the camp, 119 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 6: and fear, fear paralyzed them. But two men, two men 120 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 6: were of a different report. Joshua and Caleb literally broke 121 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 6: that limited mindset. And you know what their report was. 122 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 6: This was their take on the situation. 123 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 4: The land is great. 124 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 6: There may be giants, but let's go at once and 125 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 6: take the land because the Lord, our God is with us. 126 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 4: He's with us. 127 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 6: May feel like a grasshopper, but get your eyes off 128 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,840 Speaker 6: of yourself and get your eyes on the Lord, your God, 129 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 6: who is with you. 130 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 4: See that's the key. 131 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 6: You'll always be limited, but you serve a limitless God, 132 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 6: and if you can tap into his power, you can 133 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 6: become everything that He's called you to be. You may 134 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 6: be in a situation right now where you need healing. 135 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 6: You may need restoration, you may need a red sea 136 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 6: to literally be split in your behalf. 137 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 4: Well let me tell you. 138 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 6: If you look at your present situation and take your 139 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 6: eyes off of your powerful God, you're going to be 140 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 6: just like they were. You're gonna draw a little border 141 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 6: around yourself and say, I'm not getting out of this 142 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 6: border because I'm nice and safe right here. It's okay. 143 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 6: That on the other side is my dreams and my goals. 144 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 6: But I want to stay right here. See have you 145 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 6: ever talked yourself out of it? It sounds nice, I 146 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 6: can see it, but but it's. 147 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 4: Not for me. 148 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 6: It's too difficult. See, that's exactly where they were. They 149 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 6: were at a difficult place. They were at a hard place. 150 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 6: But Joshua broke that mindset and said, no, we're gonna 151 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 6: go in at once and we're gonna take the land. 152 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 4: This is the key. 153 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 6: If your dreams or your situations look impossible today, and 154 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 6: we're gonna get this key from Joshua one p. 155 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 4: Seven. 156 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 6: This is exactly what God told Joshua. It looks impossible, 157 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 6: it's gonna be difficult. You're gonna run in sis is 158 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 6: some challenges, but this is the key to your success, Joshua. 159 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 4: He said, don't let this. 160 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:40,560 Speaker 6: Law depart from your eyes. Stay focused on it. Keep 161 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 6: it right in front of you. Don't look to the left, 162 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 6: don't look to the right, don't look at the enemies, 163 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 6: don't look at the giants. You keep your eyes fixed 164 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 6: on the law of the Lord, meditating on it. What 165 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 6: he was saying was, you've got to be single minded 166 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:00,959 Speaker 6: when it comes to the things of God. If you're 167 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 6: gonna climb that next mountain, you've got to be single minded. 168 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 6: You can't look at the obstacles. You've got to look 169 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:11,199 Speaker 6: at the power of the living God. Let's set our 170 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,679 Speaker 6: eyes on God.
