00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 2: When the most tied God placed his hand a blessing

36
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 2: on your head, he marked you for favor, He marked

37
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 2: you for greatness. He marked you to overcome obstacles. You're

38
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 2: a marked man, a marked woman. Not by defeat, not

39
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 2: by failure, but you are marked by the hand of

40
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 2: Almighty God. What other people do cannot stop the blessing.

41
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 2: Here's the key. They didn't give it, so they can't

42
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 2: take it. It didn't come from people. It came from

43
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 2: your father in heaven. Hi, this is Joel and vic

44
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 2: tis He. Thanks for listening to our podcast and thanks

Speaker 2: you today, and I hope you'll stay connected with us

51
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 2: during the week through our daily podcast, our YouTube channel,

52
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 2: social media. We'll keep you encouraged and inspired. I'd like

53
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 2: to start with something funny, and I heard about this man.

54
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 2: He called the church office and said to the secretary,

55
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 2: I want to speak to the head hog at the trough.

56
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 2: The secretary was offended. She said, if you mean the pastor,

57
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,519
Speaker 2: you're going to have to call him pastor, but you

58
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 2: may not call him the head hog at the trough.

59
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 2: He said, well fine, but I was thinking about making

60
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,799
Speaker 2: a ten thousand dollars donation to your church. She said,

61
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 2: hang on, poor k you just walked in say didn't

62
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 2: like you mean it. This is my Bible. I am

63
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 2: what it says I am. I have what it's says

64
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 2: I have. I can do what it says I can do.

65
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 2: Today I will be taught the word of God. I

66
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 2: boldly confess. My mind is alert, my heart is receptive.

67
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 2: I will never be the same. In Jesus's name, God

68
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 2: bless you. I want to talk to you today about

69
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 2: the hand of blessing. In the Old Testament, when the

70
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 2: father was up there in years and about to pass,

71
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 2: he would call his children in and place his hand

72
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 2: on their head. He would speak loving, faith filled words

73
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 2: over them. These words would help set the direction for

74
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 2: their lives. It was called the blessing. It was so

75
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 2: valuable that when Jacob tricked his father Isaac into giving

76
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 2: him the blessing that belonged to his older brother Esau, wept.

77
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 2: He knew he was at a disadvantage. His life would

78
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 2: be limited. Isaac couldn't believe it. He was so distraught.

79
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 2: He said, I have given the blessing and I cannot

80
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 2: take it back. The blessing would determine whether they would

81
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 2: live a victorious life filled with favor abundance, overcome whatever

82
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 2: came their way, or whether it would be a life

83
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 2: of struggle, hardship, not able to get ahead. Sons and

84
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 2: daughters looked forward to this blessing. They longed for the

85
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 2: day where they would fill their father's hand on their head.

86
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 2: It was a destiny moment. Some of us have received

87
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 2: this blessing from our fathers. We had great fathers that

88
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 2: spoke faith into us. Others their father wasn't around. Maybe

89
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 2: he spoke discouraging words, telling you what you couldn't become.

90
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 2: You could think you're at a disadvantage, you're limited. You

91
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,280
Speaker 2: didn't get this blessing. That's the way David felt in

92
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 2: the scripture. His father looked down on him, saw him

93
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 2: as too small, not that talented. David could have let

94
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 2: that sour his life. Thought, I can't do anything great.

95
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 2: I didn't get the blessing. But David said and saw

96
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 2: one thirty nine. God, you have placed your hand a

97
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 2: blessing on my head, as powerful as the blessing is

98
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 2: from your natural father. Imagine your heavenly father placing his

99
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 2: hand a blessing on you. In the scripture, Jesus laid

100
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 2: hands on people and healed the sick. Paul laid hands

101
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 2: on Timothy to ignite his gifts. Fathers laid hands on

102
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 2: children to bless them. Laying on of hands was a

103
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 2: significant moment, a transfer of power in healing. When the

104
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 2: most tigh God placed his hand a blessing on your head,

105
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 2: he marked you for favor, He marked you for greatness,

106
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 2: He marked you to overcome obstacles. You're a marked man,

107
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 2: a marked woman. Not by defeat, not by failure, but

108
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 2: you are marked by the hand of Almighty God. What

109
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 2: other people do cannot stop the blessing. Here's the key.

110
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 2: They didn't give it, so they can't take it. It

111
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 2: didn't come from people. It came from your father in heaven.

112
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's good to close your eyes and see that

113
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 2: hand of blessing on your life. When dreams seem impossible,

114
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,160
Speaker 2: the obstacle too big, you're weary, you don't think you

115
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 2: could go on. Just picture the creator of the universe,

116
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,919
Speaker 2: the God who spoke worlds into existence, laying his hands

117
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 2: on your head, releasing favor, healing, strength, breakthroughs. You are

118
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 2: not limited, You're not lacking God's hands. A blessing will

119
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 2: cause you to defeat giants. It will keep you safe

120
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 2: in a fiery furnace. It will part of red sea

121
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 2: when you're at the dead end. It will close the

122
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 2: mouths of hungry lions. God's hand of blessing is a

123
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:53,160
Speaker 2: supernatural favor. Doors will open that you couldn't open. It's

124
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 2: a hedge of protection, keeping you safe from what should

125
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 2: harm you. It's a divine empowerment. You'll discover ability that

126
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 2: you didn't know you had. It wasn't good luck, It

127
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 2: wasn't you're so skilled. It was the most High God

128
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 2: putting his hand a blessing on your life. In the

129
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 2: Amplified version of the Bible, it describes this blessing when

130
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 2: you see the word blessed many times in parentheses. It

131
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 2: says happy, fortunate, to be envied, prosperous. Jesus said, blessed

132
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 2: are the peacemakers. The Amplified says blessed, Happy, fortunate to

133
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 2: be envied, prosperous are the peacemakers. This is the way

134
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 2: you need to see yourself blessed, happy, fortunate, to be envied, prosperous. See,

135
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 2: the blessing doesn't do you any good. If you think

136
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 2: you're limited. You've been through too much. Your family didn't

137
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 2: support you. You never get any good breaks. Limited thinking

138
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 2: will lead to a limited life. A blessed mindset will

139
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 2: lead to a blessed life. You may have obstacles that

140
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 2: look too big. You don't see how you can accomplish

141
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 2: your dream, But the blessing on your life is more

142
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 2: powerful than any force that tries to stop you. I

143
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 2: know today I'm not looking at average people. I'm looking

144
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 2: at blessed, happy, fortunate, to be envied, prosperous people. See,

145
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 2: we use the word blessed so commonly these days, we

146
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 2: don't always realize.

147
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:27,679
Speaker 4: What it means.

148
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 2: How you doing, I'm blessed? Someone sneezes bless you, and

149
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 2: that's all good, But we need to understand what the

150
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 2: blessing is. It's an empowerment where you can live happy,

151
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 2: not dragged through the day, defeated, but joyful, with a

152
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,840
Speaker 2: spring in your step, a song of praise in your heart.

153
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:53,199
Speaker 2: Despite the circumstances. You can live fortunate, You see good breaks, opportunities.

154
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 2: Part of this blessing is to be envied. God wants

155
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 2: you to be so blessed that other people want what

156
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:06,200
Speaker 2: you have, so healthy, so happy, so successful, so generous,

157
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 2: so stable, always in a good mood, that you stand out.

158
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 2: You're an example of God's goodness, not barely getting by,

159
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 2: but blessed in such a way that you can be

160
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 2: a blessing to others. You're not only accomplishing your dreams,

161
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 2: seeing overflow, setting new standards, but you're helping others to

162
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 2: rise higher. The scripture says that Abraham was very wealthy

163
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 2: with silver and gold. He had large flocks of cattle

164
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 2: and sheep, many staff and shepherds. He was so blessed

165
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,560
Speaker 2: that people prayed to the God of Abraham. These were

166
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 2: people that didn't know Abraham's God, they didn't know Jehovah.

167
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 2: They weren't religious people. All they knew was this man

168
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 2: is so successful, so favored that we want to serve

169
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,599
Speaker 2: his God. God wants to bless you in such a

170
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 2: way that others envious. They see the blessing on your life,

171
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,439
Speaker 2: they see you standing out. That's what the scripture says.

172
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 2: You are the head and not the tale. You are

173
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 2: above and not beneath, lending and not borrowing. Don't have

174
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 2: a limited mentality, have a blessed mentality all through the day. Father,

175
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 2: thank you that I'm blessed. I'm happy, I'm fortunate, I'm

176
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:26,679
Speaker 2: to be envied, I'm prosperous, which all that seems kind

177
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,439
Speaker 2: of arrogant, doesn't it. No, we're not bragging on who

178
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 2: we are. We're bragging on what our heavenly Father has done.

179
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:37,839
Speaker 2: He has placed his hand a blessing on us. You

180
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 2: have to get in agreement with God. God works where

181
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 2: there's faith, you can have this blessing and cancel it

182
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 2: out with doubt, negative thinking, I can't get well, I'll

183
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,959
Speaker 2: never meet the right person, this dream will never come

184
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 2: to pass. Zip that up. There is a blessing on

185
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 2: your life that will override every negative force, A blessing

186
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 2: that will take you where you can't go on your own,

187
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 2: A blessing that will cause things to happen that are unusual, uncommon,

188
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,319
Speaker 2: out of the ordinary. This is what happened with Isaac

189
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 2: Genesis chapter twenty six. There was a great famine in

190
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 2: the land. Food was very scarce, hadn't rained in months.

191
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,440
Speaker 2: All the Philistines were just waiting it out, hoping things

192
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 2: would turn around. Isaac could have thought, too bad, I'll

193
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,559
Speaker 2: just try to survive. This is a rough season. But

194
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 2: Isaac understood this principle that the blessing on his life

195
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 2: could cause him to prosper while others were struggling. See,

196
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 2: the Philistines didn't worship God. They worshiped idols. There's a

197
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 2: difference between you and those that don't honor God. They're

198
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 2: not bad people, But there is a blessing on your

199
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 2: life that will cause things to happen that defy the odds.

200
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 2: To where you stand out. People take notice that there's

201
00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 2: something different about you. When they're strung, you're succeeding. When

202
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:06,079
Speaker 2: they're complaining, you're praising. When they're worried, you're in peace.

203
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 2: Isaac went out in the middle of the drought and

204
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 2: planted his crops. His neighbors thought, what's wrong with this guy.

205
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,079
Speaker 2: Doesn't he realize there's no way to water the crops,

206
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 2: no way anything will grow. But Birch twelve says that

207
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 2: same year, Isaac's crops were tremendous. He harvested one hundred

208
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 2: times more than he planted because the Lord was with him.

209
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 2: Notice where the blessing came from. It wasn't the water,

210
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 2: the soil, the seed. It was because the Lord blessed him.

211
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,319
Speaker 2: God can favor you in a famine. He can prosper

212
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:47,439
Speaker 2: you in a pandemic. The circumstances don't determine the blessing.

213
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,199
Speaker 2: All the conditions may say you can't have a harvest man,

214
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,559
Speaker 2: there's no water, you can't get well, you saw the

215
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,319
Speaker 2: medical report. You'll never break the addiction. You've had it

216
00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 2: so long. That would be true if you were the Philistines.

217
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 2: The difference is God has placed his hand a blessing

218
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 2: on you. The blessing causes supernatural things to happen. God

219
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 2: is not limited by your environment, by the economy, by

220
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 2: how you were raised, by who's not for you. He

221
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:21,320
Speaker 2: controls the universe. You may be in a famine. Every

222
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 2: thought says you're stuck. It's never going to work out.

223
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 2: You keep doing the right thing, and your time is coming.

224
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 2: Like with Isaac, God is going to show out in

225
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 2: your life. You would think in the middle of a drought,

226
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,439
Speaker 2: if Isaac got a normal harvest, that would be a miracle,

227
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,720
Speaker 2: just enough to feed his family. But notice how God works.

228
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 2: Isaac's crops were tremendous. He had a banner year overflow.

229
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 2: Verse fifteen says, and the Philistines envied him. That's part

230
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,479
Speaker 2: of the blessing. That you are blessed with such overflow,

231
00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,199
Speaker 2: that your talent comes out in such great ways, that

232
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 2: your business sees such increase, that your children do such

233
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 2: awesome things that people look at you and shake their head,

234
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 2: thank How did that happen. We're in the same drought,

235
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,720
Speaker 2: we had the same seed, the same soil. We can't

236
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:17,199
Speaker 2: get anything to grow. It's not the environment, it's the

237
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 2: blessing on your life. But I wonder if you're living

238
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 2: with the blessing and don't know it, are you canceling

239
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 2: it out with limited thinking. It's not going to happen

240
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 2: for me, Joel, you don't know how it was raised.

241
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 2: My boss is not for me. I don't have a

242
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 2: great personality. That's not important. What's important is the creator

243
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 2: of the universe has placed his hand a blessing on you.

244
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 2: Now start thinking like you're blessed, like you have an advantage.

245
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 2: Sometimes we're envying everyone else. I wish I had their talent,

246
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 2: I wish I had her looks, I wish I was

247
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 2: as successful as my neighbor. As long as you see

248
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 2: yourself lacking at a disadvantage, it's going to limit you.

249
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 2: And yes, it's good to celebrate others. But the right

250
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 2: attitude is Father, thank you that the blessing on my

251
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 2: life is going to cause me to be envied, that

252
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 2: people are going to want what I have. That's what

253
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 2: allows God to do great things, to prosper you in

254
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 2: a negative environment, to promote you when you weren't the

255
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 2: next in line, to heal you. When the report says

256
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 2: there's no way to take you where no one in

257
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 2: your family has gone. I know a man named Robert.

258
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 2: He was raised by a single mother. He never knew

259
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 2: his biological father. When he was five years old, his

260
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 2: mother married a man, but he was very mean and condescending.

261
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 2: He constantly told Robert how he was never going to

262
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 2: mount to anything. As a child, he didn't know any better.

263
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 2: He believed those lies and grew up very insecure, feeling inferior.

264
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 2: When he was a teenager, his mother remarried. This new

265
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 2: step father was just the opposite. He encouraged Roberton, told

266
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 2: him how talented he was and how he was going

267
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 2: to do great things. When he graduated from high school,

268
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 2: he was working as a janitor in a small town.

269
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 2: His father asked him what he wanted to do with

270
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 2: his life. He had been beaten down so long. He said,

271
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 2: this is all I know how to do, just clean buildings.

272
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 2: And his father told Robert that he had so much

273
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 2: more in him, said, Robert, I'll make a deal with you.

274
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 2: If you'll go to college. I'll pay for every course,

275
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 2: every book, every degree you get. Something came alive in Robert.

276
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 2: He went back to school and got his bachelor's degree.

277
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 2: Then he got his master's degree and then his doctorate.

278
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 2: He liked it so much he went to seminary and

279
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 2: got another degree. After four degrees, the father said, I

280
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 2: think that's enough. Today Robert is very successful, fulfilling his purpose. Now,

281
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 2: don't let what people have spoken over you keep you

282
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 2: from your greatness. The enemy would love for you to

283
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 2: live limited, not go after your dreams, not feel attractive,

284
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,640
Speaker 2: not think you can be successful. When those lies try

285
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 2: to push you down, you need to close your eyes

286
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:19,359
Speaker 2: and imagine God's hand a blessing placed on your head.

287
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 2: This blessing is more powerful than what people have told you.

288
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 2: It's more powerful than the lies the enemy whispers. The

289
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 2: blessing on your life will override every negative force that's

290
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 2: trying to hold you back. The only thing that can

291
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 2: stop the blessing is if you believe the lies. If

292
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 2: you think you're limited, you can't go further. You're not

293
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 2: that talented. Everyone in my family struggles. That may be true,

294
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 2: but you're the difference maker. You're the one to defy

295
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 2: the odds. You're the one to set a new standard.

296
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,680
Speaker 2: If you'll have the right perspective, knowing that you're blessed,

297
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 2: you're fortunate, you're to be envied loss for us. Then,

298
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 2: like Robert, God is going to show out in your

299
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 2: life Numbers, Chapter twenty two. The king of Moab sent

300
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 2: word to Balem asking him to come and curse the

301
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,920
Speaker 2: people of Israel. The Israelites were about to come through

302
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 2: the Moabites territory. When the king saw how many there were,

303
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 2: he was afraid. He sent his men with a large

304
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 2: amount of money. They said, Balim, we know God will

305
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 2: do what you ask. We'll pay you all these funds

306
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 2: if you will come and speak defeat over these people.

307
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 2: Balim asked them to spend the night so he could

308
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 2: pray about it. Verse twelve. God said, Balem, don't go

309
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 2: with these people, for I have blessed the Israelites. What

310
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:46,440
Speaker 2: I have blessed, you cannot curse. God was saying, in effect, Balim,

311
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 2: there's no use going with them, because you can't cancel

312
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 2: out the blessing. The messengers went back and told the

313
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,960
Speaker 2: king that he wouldn't come. The king sent more people

314
00:18:56,080 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 2: and more funds. Finally Balim went back with them. Was

315
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,880
Speaker 2: so happy he called everyone out. Got this big audience.

316
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 2: Said go ahead, Baalim, do your thing. But instead of

317
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 2: cursing them, He blessed the Israelites. This happened three times.

318
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,120
Speaker 2: The king was so furious he said, I didn't hire

319
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 2: you to bless them, I hired you to curse them.

320
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 2: Baalim said it again. I cannot curse what God has

321
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 2: already blessed. God was showing us that no matter how

322
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 2: hard people try, no matter what they say or do,

323
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 2: they cannot stop the blessing on your life. What God

324
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 2: has spoken over you overrides every negative voice, people telling

325
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 2: you what you can't do. Bad breaks dysfunction. This hand

326
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:48,440
Speaker 2: of blessing will break every generational curse, things that keep

327
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 2: getting passed down. Now this is a new day. Freedom

328
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 2: starts with you. Wholeness starts with you, Abundance starts with you.

329
00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 2: Victory starts with you. The blessing on your life is

330
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 2: going to cause you to go where no one in

331
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 2: your family has gone. Forces that have held you back

332
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 2: are being broken right now. God is about to release

333
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:14,400
Speaker 2: you into new levels of influence, new levels of resources,

334
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 2: new opportunities, new relationships. You're going to be able to say,

335
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 2: not as faith, but as fact, I am blessed, I

336
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 2: am happy, I am fortunate, I am to be indeed,

337
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 2: I am prosperous, Joel. Nobody would ever envy me.

338
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:31,040
Speaker 5: Man.

339
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 2: I've had a lot of bad breaks. I didn't have

340
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:38,119
Speaker 2: a good childhood. I'm struggling with this addiction company let

341
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 2: me go, or this friend walked out of my life.

342
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:44,120
Speaker 2: That may be true, but that's not how your story ends.

343
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,720
Speaker 2: The blessing on your life is not just going to

344
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,359
Speaker 2: make up for what went wrong, but it's going to

345
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:54,120
Speaker 2: catapult you ahead. Nobody is going to know what you've

346
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,680
Speaker 2: been through. When they look at you, You're going to

347
00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:00,919
Speaker 2: be so blessed, so healthy, so happy, generous, they're going

348
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 2: to be envs. Now you have to do your part

349
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,960
Speaker 2: and have a blessed mindset. Can't go around thinking that

350
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:12,400
Speaker 2: your average you've made too many mistakes, letting negative comments

351
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 2: talk you out of it. When you're tempted to think

352
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 2: that way, you need to close your eyes and see

353
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 2: that hand of God's blessing on your head. I have

354
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 2: some friends that live in another state. They were trying

355
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,880
Speaker 2: to sell their home. The housing market in that area

356
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,920
Speaker 2: was very depressed. A large company had gone out of

357
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:35,159
Speaker 2: business where many of the employees lived. There were a

358
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,919
Speaker 2: surplus of homes for sale on their street alone, there

359
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 2: were twelve houses on the market. The average time for

360
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,480
Speaker 2: a house to sell was a year and a half.

361
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,680
Speaker 2: Their relator had already told them to not get in

362
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 2: a hurry. It'd be a long process. Their value would

363
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 2: probably go down. Didn't look good in the natural. But

364
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 2: God is supernatural. The blessing he put on your life

365
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,479
Speaker 2: will cause the right people to come to you. Instead

366
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 2: of living discouraged, you know, just making plans for defeat.

367
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 2: Every morning, this young couple would say, Father, thank you

368
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 2: that you're causing our property to stand out. Thank you

369
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 2: that you're bringing us the right buyers. Six weeks later,

370
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,439
Speaker 2: their agent brought them a contract for the full amount.

371
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,919
Speaker 2: At closing, the new owners told them that they had

372
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 2: looked at the other houses in the area, all the

373
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 2: houses on their street. Some were of better value, a

374
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 2: more desirable location. But they said, there's just something about

375
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 2: this house that stood out. We felt a peace here.

376
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,119
Speaker 2: We knew it was supposed to be ours. That's the

377
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,920
Speaker 2: blessing God put on you. It's on your property, on

378
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 2: your business, on your savings, on your children, on your health.

379
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 2: All those other neighbors, they were scratching their heads. How

380
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 2: did that happen. God knows how to make you envy.

381
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 2: He wants to bless you so others see his favor

382
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:05,399
Speaker 2: on your life. When the Israelites were in slavery, the

383
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 2: Phaarah wouldn't let them go, even though God kept sending

384
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 2: them the plagues. God said to the Phaia rogue, I

385
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,440
Speaker 2: have let you live for this one reason, so you

386
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 2: will see my power and my fame will spread throughout

387
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,879
Speaker 2: the earth. Sometimes God will let you get in a

388
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 2: difficult situation. Things you don't understand. It's not fair. That

389
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 2: doesn't mean that you don't have the blessing. The blessing

390
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 2: is what's going to bring you out. God is going

391
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 2: to use that situation to show his power through you.

392
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 2: When people see how it turns around, how you defied

393
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 2: the odds, how you get a better position, how you

394
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 2: come out without the smell of smoke, they're going to

395
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 2: know the blessing is on your life. God will use

396
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:55,200
Speaker 2: you to spread his fame. God sent this huge hellstorm

397
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:59,639
Speaker 2: on their oppressors. Verse twenty six says the only spot

398
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,880
Speaker 2: without hell in all of Egypt was the land of Goshen,

399
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 2: where the Israelites lived. The blessing on your life is

400
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 2: a hedge of protection. A thousand may fall at your side,

401
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,640
Speaker 2: ten thousand at your right hand, but the blessing will

402
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 2: keep it from you. You don't have to live worried,

403
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 2: afraid of what might happen. God has you in the

404
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 2: palm of his hand. Nothing can snatch you away. The

405
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 2: Book of Job, God said to Satan, have you seen

406
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 2: my servant Job. There's none like him in all the land.

407
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:37,440
Speaker 2: He's faithful, he has integrity, he doesn't compromise. Satan answers

408
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 2: something that gives us great insight. He said, why shouldn't

409
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,880
Speaker 2: he serve you. You've always protected him and his family,

410
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 2: his home, his property. You've made him prosper us in

411
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:54,440
Speaker 2: everything he does. He was saying, you have this blessing

412
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 2: on his life that keeps me from him. And yes,

413
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,439
Speaker 2: we all have difficulties, we all go through tough times.

414
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 2: But like with Job, the enemy can't touch you without

415
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:09,640
Speaker 2: God's permission. God is in control, not just of your life,

416
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 2: He's in control of your enemies. The apostle Paul experienced

417
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 2: this blessing. He was on his way to Rome when

418
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,879
Speaker 2: he was shipwrecked on a deserted island. He went to

419
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 2: pick up some wood to make a fire. When he

420
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 2: reached down, a poisonous snake bit his arm as it

421
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,639
Speaker 2: hung there. The natives of the island knew exactly what

422
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 2: was going to happen. They had seen it again and again.

423
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:39,680
Speaker 2: The scripture says he should have swollen up, gotten sick,

424
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 2: and died. They waited and waited whole time. Paul just

425
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,880
Speaker 2: went about his business. Nobody told him he was supposed

426
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 2: to die. Nobody told him the snake was poisonous and

427
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 2: he wasn't going to make it. It's amazing what happens

428
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 2: when we don't let fear and doubt and negative thinking

429
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:02,440
Speaker 2: in our minds. After watching him a few hours, that

430
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 2: snake not having any effect, they decided that he was

431
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:09,280
Speaker 2: a god. They weren't far off. He was a son

432
00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:13,520
Speaker 2: of God. It says he should have swollen up and

433
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 2: died because you have this hand of blessing you're going

434
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 2: to have. Some should have that illness should have taken

435
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 2: your life, but you're a healthy and home how you

436
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 2: were raised should have limited you, but you're successful confident.

437
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 2: That addiction should have controlled you, but look at you now, free, clean,

438
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 2: helping others. This pandemic should have taken you under, but

439
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:42,360
Speaker 2: you're still standing. You should have been lonely, but God

440
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:46,640
Speaker 2: said someone awesome. Isaac should have been stuck in the famine,

441
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:52,120
Speaker 2: but he saw uncommon increase. Robert should have been insecure, limited,

442
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 2: but he has four degrees. My mother should have lost

443
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,679
Speaker 2: her life to cancer, but she's still here. Forty one

444
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:03,440
Speaker 2: years later, when we were trying to acquire the Compact Center,

445
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 2: the opposition was bigger, stronger. They should have overpowered us,

446
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 2: out maneuvered us. But like David and a slingshot, we

447
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,440
Speaker 2: defeated the giant. Get ready for some should haves. It's

448
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 2: going to be unusual, uncommon. You couldn't have made it happen.

449
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 2: It's the hand of God's blessing showing out, making you

450
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 2: an example of his goodness. Other people are going to

451
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 2: see his favor on your life. Now, don't cancel it

452
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,680
Speaker 2: out by living negative thinking. Your problems are too big.

453
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 2: Here the disadvantage. You can't accomplish that dream. That would

454
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:43,680
Speaker 2: be true for ordinary people. I would believe that if

455
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 2: you were average, But I know who you are. Like

456
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:50,639
Speaker 2: the patriarchs of old laid hands on their children and

457
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 2: blessed them, the most High God has placed his hand

458
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 2: a blessing on your head. It's a blessing that will

459
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 2: cause you to go where you can't go on your own,

460
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 2: to overcome what seems too big, to accomplish dreams that

461
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:09,400
Speaker 2: look impossible. All through the day, Just imagine that hand

462
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 2: of blessing on your head. Father, thank you that I'm blessed.

463
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 2: I'm happy, I'm fortunate, I'm to be envied, I am prosperous.

464
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:22,360
Speaker 2: If you will do this, I believe and declare, like Isaac,

465
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 2: you're going to prosper in the famine. Like Paul, what

466
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 2: was meant to harm you will have no effect. Like Robert,

467
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 2: any negative words spoken over you are being broken. The

468
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 2: blessing is overriding the curse in Jesus' name. If you

469
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 2: receive it, Can you say amen, I'd like to give

470
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 2: you an opportunity to make Jesus the lord of your life.

471
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 2: Would you pray with me? Just say, Lord, Jesus, I

472
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 2: repent of my sins. Come into my heart. I'll make

473
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 2: you my lord and savior. If you prayed that simple prayer,

474
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 2: believe you got born again. We'd love to send us

Speaker 3: hu when she discovered the narrator was in fact the

494
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:01,360
