I promise you we'll make you feel right 53 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 3: at home. I like to start with something funny, and 54 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 3: I heard about this man that was very stingy with 55 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 3: his money. Just before his death, he made his wife 56 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 3: promise that she would have him buried with the fifty 57 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 3: thousand dollars he had saved. His wife reluctantly agreed. At 58 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 3: the funeral, right before they closed the casket, She's snuck 59 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 3: in this small wooden box. Her friend said, surely you 60 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 3: didn't just bury the money. She said, of course I did. 61 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 3: I'm a Christian. I can't lie. The friend said, you 62 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,839 Speaker 3: mean you just buried fifty thousand dollars. She said, yes, 63 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 3: I did. I wrote a check. Say it like you 64 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 3: mean it. This is my Bible. I am what it says, 65 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 3: I am, I have what it says. I have. I 66 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 3: can do what it says I can do. Today, I 67 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 3: will be taught the word of God. I boldly confess. 68 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 3: My mind is alert, my heart is receptive. I will 69 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 3: never be the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. 70 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 3: I want to talk to you today about believing when 71 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 3: you're not seeing. It's easy to believe when things are 72 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 3: going our way. We're getting good breaks, our health is improving, 73 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 3: our child is turning around. When you can see it, 74 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 3: it doesn't take much faith. The test comes when you 75 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 3: can't see any sign of what you're believing for. You're 76 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 3: working hard, but doors aren't opening. You're praying, but the 77 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 3: medical report isn't improving. You're doing the right thing, but 78 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 3: your marriage isn't getting better. You know, God put the 79 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 3: promise in your heart. You know he gave you the dream, 80 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 3: but there's no sign that is happening. If you just 81 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 3: saw a little improvement, if you just felt a little better, 82 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 3: at least you would know that what you were doing 83 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 3: was helping. But many times before a promise comes to pass, 84 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 3: you have to go through a season of silence where 85 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 3: you're not seeing anything changing. You'll be tempted to think, 86 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 3: is what I'm doing even working. Is my believing, my praying, 87 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 3: my giving, even making a difference. This is when many 88 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 3: people get discouraged and give up on what they're believing for. 89 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 3: But just because you don't see anything happening doesn't mean 90 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 3: God is not working behind the scenes. Things are changing 91 00:04:56,120 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 3: that you can't see. God does much of his work 92 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 3: in secret. You can't see him lining up the people 93 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 3: you need. You can't see him arranging good breaks for you. 94 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 3: You can't see him sending the angel with your promise, 95 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 3: putting the healing, the promotion, the vindication on your schedule. 96 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 3: All you can see is Joel, I'm praying and nothing's happening. 97 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 3: I'm doing my best, but nothing's improving. You're in a 98 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 3: season of silence. The question is are you going to 99 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 3: get discouraged and quit believing because you're not seeing, or 100 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,679 Speaker 3: you're going to dig your heels in and say, God, 101 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 3: I may not see anything happening, but I'm not moved 102 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 3: by what I see. I'm moved by what I know, 103 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 3: and I know what you promised me is on the way. 104 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 3: If you'll stay in faith, at some point you're going 105 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 3: to see what God was doing behind the scenes. Suddenly 106 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 3: things are going to shift in your favor. What happened 107 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 3: and you saw what God was up to all those months, 108 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 3: even years you didn't think anything was happening. Behind the scenes, 109 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 3: things were coming together, And sometimes it hasn't happened yet 110 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 3: because another person involved is not ready. God is working 111 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 3: on someone else who's a part of your story. Or 112 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 3: when that obstacle wasn't changing, you didn't realize it. But 113 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 3: God was using the obstacle to change you. You were growing, 114 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 3: getting stronger, developing patients. If he would have removed it sooner, 115 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 3: you wouldn't be prepared for where He's taken you. But 116 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 3: the scripture says, don't get weary in well doing, for 117 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 3: in due season you will reap if you faint. Not 118 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 3: it doesn't say you may reap. There's a good chance 119 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 3: you'll reap. God says if you won't get tired of 120 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 3: doing the right thing, you won't let what you see 121 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 3: talk you out of what you know. Then your due 122 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:09,119 Speaker 3: season is coming. You will reap if you don't faint. 123 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 3: But God wouldn't have told us to not get weary 124 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 3: in well doing if he didn't know it would be 125 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 3: easy to get tired of doing what's right. It's easy 126 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 3: to get worn down. I think it's never going to 127 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 3: work out. My marriage is never going to make it, 128 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 3: my business is never going to grow. No, get your 129 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 3: fire back. Your due season is closer than you think. 130 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 3: In the scripture, it compares the life of a believer 131 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 3: to an eagle. When a mother eagle is going to 132 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 3: have a baby eglet, she lays an egg for thirty 133 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 3: five days. She has to sit on the egg to 134 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 3: keep it warm. She never feels the baby eglet kick. 135 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 3: The egg never grows any larger. There's no sign that 136 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 3: what's on the inside of the egg is alive. The 137 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 3: mother eagle could think if it was alive, at least 138 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 3: it would move a little bit, at least I would 139 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 3: hear something. But day after day the mother eagle sits 140 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 3: unmoved by what she doesn't feel, unmoved by what's not changing. 141 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 3: On the thirty fifth day, after no signs of life, 142 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 3: suddenly the little eagle it starts pecking out of the shell. 143 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 3: Before long, it hatches, healthy and whole. But think about 144 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 3: the faith it takes for that mother eagle to sit 145 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 3: on an egg that seems dead. Unlike a person. When 146 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 3: a lady is going to have a baby. We have 147 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 3: all these signs. Their stomach gets bigger, their feet may swell, 148 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 3: their back may hurt, they may get meaner. I mean, 149 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 3: they may have morning sickness. Their wound begins to grow. 150 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 3: Over time, it's obvious you can see the baby is developing. 151 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 3: When Victoria was pregnant with Jonathan, we were driving down 152 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 3: the road and I turned on some music. Just like clockwork, 153 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 3: he started kicking in the wound like he was keeping 154 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 3: beat to the music. You could see a leg coming 155 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 3: out here and elbow coming out there. We had no 156 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 3: doubt that he was coming. Those last six months. We 157 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 3: never once thought, I wonder if he's in there. I 158 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 3: wonder if he's alive. We didn't have to wonder. We 159 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 3: could see it. If God brought promises to pass like 160 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 3: a person giving birth, it would be no problem to 161 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 3: stay in faith. It would be easy to thank him 162 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 3: that it was on the way. But most of the 163 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 3: time it won't be like a person. It will be 164 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 3: like an eagle. You're going to have to believe something 165 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 3: is happening when you can't see any sign of it. 166 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 3: You're going to have to s sit on that promise, believing, expecting, praying, thinking, 167 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 3: when you're not getting any kicks, when you're not seeing 168 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 3: any growth, when the egg is not moving, you don't 169 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 3: hear any sounds. Deep down, you have to know something 170 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 3: is happening that you can't see. After a couple of weeks, 171 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 3: the mother eagle could think I'm wasting my time. By now, 172 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 3: something should be happening. I don't see any sign that 173 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:33,439 Speaker 3: what's in this egg is alive. But there's something in 174 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:37,959 Speaker 3: her DNA, something put in her by the creator that says, 175 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 3: I don't have to see a sign. I don't have 176 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,319 Speaker 3: to feel a kick. I know my baby is alive. 177 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 3: I know my duce season is coming. I know on 178 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 3: the thirty fifth day, this baby eaglet is going to hatch. 179 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 3: You may have promises that you've been standing on for 180 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 3: a long time, dreams God has put in your heart. 181 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 3: Circumstance says it's never going to happen. What you're believing 182 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,839 Speaker 3: for is dead. It would have kicked by now, you 183 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 3: would have seen some improvement, some grow. No, don't believe 184 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 3: those lies. Keep sitting on that egg, Keep thanking God 185 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 3: that is coming, keep talking like it's on the way, 186 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 3: Keep expecting things to change in your favor. Our attitude 187 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 3: should be what God promised me may look dead, but 188 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 3: I know, like that eagle, what He put in my 189 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 3: spirit is still alive. It doesn't have to KIT. I'm 190 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,439 Speaker 3: not moved by what I feel. I'm not moved by 191 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 3: how long it's taking, by what's not working out. I 192 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 3: know what God started in my life. He's going to 193 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 3: finish what am I saying. Quit being discouraged because you 194 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 3: haven't felt a KIT. Nothing is wrong. That doesn't mean 195 00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 3: it's not going to happen. You have to trust the process. 196 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 3: While you're waiting, things are growing, things are developing. God 197 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 3: is bringing it together. He works in secret. You may 198 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:14,079 Speaker 3: not see any improvement. You may not see what God 199 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 3: is up to. If the mother eagle could peck a 200 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 3: little hole in the shell and see her baby, it 201 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 3: would be so much easier to believe. I saw him. 202 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 3: He's in there. Now I can sit on this egg 203 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 3: with confidence. The problem is the eaglet wouldn't survive. Some 204 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 3: things have to develop in the dark in secret. If 205 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,959 Speaker 3: you could see the promise coming, if God showed us 206 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,719 Speaker 3: what he was up to, yes it wouldn't be as 207 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 3: difficult to believe. But that wouldn't take any faith you 208 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 3: have to believe when there's no sign on the outside, 209 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 3: that what's on the inside is still alive. The promise 210 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 3: God put in you. That egg, so to speak, is 211 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 3: not going to move, not going to grow, not going 212 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 3: to kick. You may not see any signs of life 213 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 3: until the thirty fifth day, until you're due season, when 214 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 3: suddenly that baby eaglet is going to hatch. But there's 215 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 3: something God has put in your DNA where you can 216 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 3: believe when every circumstance says it's not going to happen. 217 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 3: The odds may be against you today, your dream seems impossible, 218 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 3: the medical reports not improving. You've struggled with the addiction 219 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 3: for years. Looks like the promise is dead. You're tempted 220 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 3: to walk away from the nest, forget about the egg 221 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 3: hasn't seen any signs of life, or God is saying 222 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 3: go back and sit on it. It is still alive. 223 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 3: Don't let the circumstances fool you. Just because you don't 224 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 3: see anything happening on the outside doesn't mean something is 225 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 3: not happening on the well. Joel, I've never felt my 226 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 3: baby kick. It's not going to kick in the egg. 227 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,199 Speaker 3: God burst things like an eagle, not like a person. 228 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 3: We have to walk by faith and not by sight. 229 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 3: The Israelites were traveling through the desert, headed toward the 230 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 3: Promised Land when they came to the city of Jericho. 231 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 3: This was the last city that stood between them and 232 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 3: the city of Canaan, the land God promised them. Jericho 233 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 3: was surrounded by a huge stone wall. It was so 234 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 3: thick that chariots could ride on top of it. God 235 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 3: told Joshua to have the Israelites march around the walls 236 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 3: for seven days without saying a word. These two million 237 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 3: people went out and once a day started walking around 238 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 3: the wall. First day, nothing happened. Second day nothing. It 239 00:14:55,640 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 3: was hot, dusty. They were already tired, worn out from 240 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 3: traveling through the desert. Went around the fourth day, nothing, 241 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 3: The fifth time nothing. I can imagine they started to 242 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 3: get discouraged, thinking, what are we doing out here? We 243 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 3: look like fools. Nothing is even happening. It wouldn't have 244 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 3: been so difficult to believe if while they were walking 245 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 3: around they saw a little crack in the wall start 246 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 3: to form. Maybe the fourth time around some of the 247 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 3: rocks up top broke apart. The next time around, the 248 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 3: foundation began to loosen up. If they would have just 249 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 3: seen a sign that things were improving, something to encourage them, 250 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 3: a little crack here and there, but nothing was changing. 251 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 3: They were sitting on that egg, doing what God asked 252 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 3: them to do, walking around the city, not complaining. They 253 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 3: were doing their part. Why wasn't God doing his part? 254 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 3: God works in secret. In that an egg, you can't 255 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 3: see the eaglet developing. The Israelites didn't like it. They 256 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 3: were uncomfortable. But here's the key. They kept doing the 257 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 3: right thing. They didn't get weary in well doing. On 258 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 3: the seventh day, the seventh time around, still no sign 259 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 3: of the wall weakening. Still look just as strong, sturdy, 260 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 3: like it did before they started. But when they completed 261 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 3: that seventh lap, suddenly the walls came tumbling down. They 262 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 3: came into their due season, their thirty fifth day. But 263 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 3: too often we'll stay in faith. If we see the 264 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 3: wall cracking, we'll believe. If our boss starts treating us better, 265 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 3: if our health starts improving, we're waiting for the baby 266 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 3: to kick. God, give me a sign, show me something 267 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 3: that you're going to turn this around. What I'm saying 268 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 3: is you may not get a sign that's when you 269 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 3: have to dig down deep and say, am I going 270 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:04,159 Speaker 3: to get up off this egg? Am I going to 271 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 3: let what I'm not seeing convince me what I'm believing 272 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 3: for is dead? It's too late, the obstacle's too big. 273 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 3: Or am I going to do like the Israelites and 274 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 3: keep marching even though there is no sign? Keep thanking 275 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 3: God even though it's not improving, keep expecting, even though 276 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 3: the baby is not kicking. You keep doing the right thing, 277 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 3: and your thirty fifth day is coming. What you thought 278 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 3: was dead, you didn't see any signs of life. Suddenly 279 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 3: that baby EGLT is going to burst forth. A friend 280 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 3: of mine that I grew up with was believing to 281 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 3: have a baby for many years. She and her husband 282 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 3: had tried and tried with no success. We were all 283 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 3: standing in faith with her, believing and praying that no baby. 284 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 3: She'd gone to doctors. They told her there was nothing 285 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 3: more they could do. She wouldn't be able to have children. 286 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 3: She's a little bit older than I am, and I 287 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 3: was in my forties. I thought it's too late. Now, 288 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 3: surely she'll accept it and move on. Maybe she can adopt, 289 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 3: Maybe she can do something else with children that never 290 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 3: entered her mind. She was always talking about having a baby. 291 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 3: It was never if, it was always. When she even 292 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 3: made a baby's room in her house, had it all 293 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 3: decorated ready for the child. She was constantly thanking God 294 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,119 Speaker 3: that her baby was on the way, talking like it 295 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 3: could happen tomorrow. She could have easily walked away from 296 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:45,159 Speaker 3: the nest. I thought, this egg doesn't just look dead. 297 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 3: It is dead. Would have happened by now. But when 298 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 3: God puts a promise in your heart, you have to 299 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 3: have a never say die attitude. You may not see 300 00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:01,439 Speaker 3: how it can happen. It seems too late, you're too old, 301 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 3: the obstacle's too big. You can come up with a 302 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 3: thousand reasons why it's not going to work out. Don't 303 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 3: talk yourself out of it. Do like her, Keep thanking 304 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 3: God that it's on the way, Keep believing when it's 305 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 3: not improving. Keep sitting on that egg, not moved by 306 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 3: what's not changing, walking by faith and not by sight. 307 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 3: Twenty years later, she walked in one day and said, 308 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 3: I'm pregnant. She wasn't saying it by faith. It was 309 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 3: a reality. She not only gave birth to one baby, 310 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 3: she gave birth to twins at fifty three years old. Now, 311 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 3: don't walk away from that nest. Don't get discouraged because 312 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 3: you haven't felt a kick. God is working on the inside. 313 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:55,360 Speaker 3: What you can't see is the promise is growing, it's developing. 314 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 3: The outside looks the same. You may not see any 315 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 3: imp provement. But if you will stay in faith like 316 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 3: with her, what God has spoken over you is on 317 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 3: the way. God told Abraham that he and his wife 318 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,120 Speaker 3: Sarah was going to have a baby. Sarah had been 319 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 3: burying all these years. Now they were way too old 320 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 3: to have children. But the scripture says Abraham considered not 321 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 3: the weakness of his own body nor the deadness of 322 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:31,719 Speaker 3: Sarah's womb. When Abraham looked at that promise, everything in 323 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 3: him said it's dead. You're way too old to have 324 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:39,719 Speaker 3: a baby. All the circumstances said it would never happen. 325 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 3: But here's the key. Abraham considered not what looked dead. 326 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 3: He wasn't moved by what he saw. You may have 327 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:53,200 Speaker 3: situations that look like they'll never work out. You don't 328 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 3: see how you could get well, how you'll meet the 329 00:20:55,840 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 3: right person, how you'll break the addiction. If you only 330 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 3: consider that, you'll get discouraged and quit believing you have 331 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:10,399 Speaker 3: to do like Abraham. Don't consider your circumstances, consider your God. 332 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 3: I'm sure many times Abraham was tempted to walk away 333 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 3: from the nest. They didn't see any sign of it happening. 334 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:23,400 Speaker 3: Year after year went by with no baby. They never 335 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 3: felt a kick, never saw Sarah's womb growing. In the meantime, 336 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 3: Abraham made mistakes, had a baby with another lady that 337 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:37,640 Speaker 3: wasn't the promised child. Twenty five years after God gave 338 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 3: him the promise, God came back to Abraham and said, 339 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 3: now Sarah is going to have a baby. A year later, 340 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 3: at ninety years old, she gave birth to a son. 341 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:54,120 Speaker 3: What's interesting is no one had ever had a baby 342 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 3: at that age. It's one thing. If you had seen 343 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 3: it happen before, you knew your neighbor had given birth 344 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 3: at close to ninety, or you saw in the news 345 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 3: a lady gave birth at ninety, at least you could 346 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 3: look back and say, God, you did it for them, 347 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 3: I know you can do it for me. At least 348 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 3: you would know it was possible this had never happened. 349 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 3: They had no point of reference. God has some things 350 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 3: in your future that have never happened. You're going to 351 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 3: be the first one in your family to step into 352 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 3: new levels of influence, the first one to run a 353 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 3: successful business, the first one to break the addiction, the 354 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 3: first one to keep your marriage together. But when we've 355 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 3: never seen this, it's easy to dismiss it, Joe, this 356 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 3: egg is never going to hatch. No use praying, believing, expecting. 357 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 3: It's never happened before. No, like with Abraham and Sarah, 358 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 3: you're about to give birth to something that you've never seen, 359 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 3: something that it's going to catapult you to a new level, 360 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 3: something where people can see the favor of God is 361 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:10,400 Speaker 3: on your line. Now. Instead of considering how big your 362 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 3: obstacles are, why don't you start considering how big your 363 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 3: God is. He flung stars into space, He's folk worlds 364 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:23,719 Speaker 3: into existence. What you're up against may seem impossible, but 365 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 3: God can do the impossible. He can make things happen 366 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:31,239 Speaker 3: that we could never make happen. Victoria taught to a 367 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 3: young lady named Sabrina. At seventeen years of age, she 368 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 3: went into check on her nine month old son and 369 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 3: discovered he wasn't breathing. She grabbed him rushed to the 370 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 3: neighbor's house and frantically started doing CPR. Unfortunately, the little 371 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 3: boy didn't make it. When the prosecutors saw the bruises 372 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 3: on his chest from the CPR, they accused the mother 373 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 3: of abuse that caused his death. The neighbors told how 374 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 3: that wasn't the case, but they didn't believe them. A 375 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 3: year later, she was found guilty of taking her son's 376 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 3: life and sentenced to death. Eighteen years of age, sitting 377 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 3: in a prison cell twenty three hours a day didn't 378 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 3: look like she could fulfill her destiny. Her dream seemed dead. 379 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 3: No woman had ever been released from death row. Six 380 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 3: years later, by the grace of God, she was granted 381 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 3: a new trial. This time, the neighbors were able to 382 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:38,120 Speaker 3: testify about the CPR. A medical examiner found the little 383 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,879 Speaker 3: boy had a kidney disease that he believed caused the death. 384 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 3: December of nineteen ninety five, after six years on death row, 385 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 3: a jury found her not guilty. She was completely exonerated 386 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 3: and became the first woman ever to be released from 387 00:24:56,280 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 3: death row. I'm sure there were plenty of lonely nights 388 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:04,200 Speaker 3: in that prison cell where thoughts told her you'll never 389 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:08,360 Speaker 3: get out it's never happened before. You can be the first. 390 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 3: You can be the one to set a new standard. 391 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 3: Don't be moved by what you don't see, by what 392 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 3: you don't have, by who's against you. God being for 393 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 3: you is more than the world being against you. Now, 394 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 3: maybe you're about to step away from the nest. You 395 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:32,920 Speaker 3: know what God's promised you, but it seems impossible. Nothing's changing. 396 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,879 Speaker 3: Surely it would have happened by now. If you walk away, 397 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 3: you're going to miss what God is about to do. 398 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 3: You are closer than you think. Your thirty fifth day 399 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:48,880 Speaker 3: is going to happen sooner than it looks. You may 400 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:52,959 Speaker 3: not see any sign of it now. When that baby 401 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:56,400 Speaker 3: eaglet is in the egg, you can't tell when it's 402 00:25:56,440 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 3: about to break out. Nothing on the outside looks at different. 403 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 3: The shelf seems just the same as it's been day 404 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:08,439 Speaker 3: after day. But then suddenly, when you didn't see it coming, 405 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 3: when everything looks the same, the door will open, your 406 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 3: health will turn around, The right person will show up. 407 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:19,160 Speaker 3: You don't know what God is up to behind the scenes. 408 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 3: I read where this mother eagle has to keep the 409 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 3: temperature of the egg at one hundred and five degrees. 410 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 3: If she doesn't maintain that temperature, the eaglet won't develop. 411 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 3: So she sits on the egg day after day. She 412 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 3: could be out gathering food building another nest, but she 413 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 3: knows it's vital to keep the egg warm. In the 414 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 3: same way, you have to keep your promise in a 415 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 3: warm environment. The way you do this is through praise 416 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 3: and thanksgiving. Father, Thank you that what you promise me 417 00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 3: is on the way. The medical report doesn't look good, 418 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 3: but Lord, thank you that you're restoring health back into me. 419 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 3: Business is slow, but I'm not moved by what I see. Lord, 420 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 3: thank you that I will lend and not borrow. Thank 421 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 3: You that what I touch will prosper and succeed. Sometimes 422 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:21,119 Speaker 3: our promise is taking longer to develop because we're complaining 423 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 3: instead of praising God. Why is this taking so long? 424 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 3: When is this ever going to change? Now? You have 425 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 3: to get your promise in a warm environment. Like my 426 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,639 Speaker 3: friend with the baby. For twenty years, she sat on 427 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 3: that promise. She was constantly thanking God that the baby 428 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:44,639 Speaker 3: was coming. Abraham did this. He could have complained, God, 429 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 3: we're too old to have a baby. Why don't you 430 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 3: find somebody else? Or the scripture says Abraham grew strong 431 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 3: in faith by giving praise to God. I can hear 432 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 3: him all through the day. God, it looks impossible, but 433 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:02,919 Speaker 3: I know you can do the impossible. Thank you that 434 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 3: the fruit of Sarah's womb is blessed. Thank you that 435 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 3: what you promise me I will become that Father of 436 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 3: many nations? Is your promise in a warm environment? Are 437 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 3: you keeping it in an atmosphere of faith, of praise, 438 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 3: of thanksgiving. You have to maintain the proper temperature for 439 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 3: the promise to come to pass. I know many of 440 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 3: you have been doing this. You've been faithful year after year, 441 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 3: believing when you don't see anything changing. Get ready, your 442 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 3: thirty fifth day is coming. God is about to do 443 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 3: something unusual, something that's never happened for you. Now my challenge, 444 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 3: don't walk away from the nest, don't get weary in 445 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 3: well doing, keep believing even though you're not seeing. If 446 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 3: you'll do this, I believe and declare what you thought 447 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 3: was dead thing you didn't see any improvement, They're about 448 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 3: to suddenly come back to life, healing promotions, breakthroughs, marriages, 449 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 3: the fullness of your destiny in Jesus' name, And if 450 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 3: you receive it. Can you say amen? Today? Well, I'd 451 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 3: like to give you an opportunity to make Jesus the 452 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 3: lord of your life. Would you pray with me? Just say, Lord, Jesus, 453 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 3: I repent of my sins. Come into my heart. I'll 454 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 3: make you my Lord and savior. Frinds, If you prayed 455 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 3: that simple prayer, we believe you got born again.
