I believe God has amazing things in your future. 38 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 3: I hope you enjoy this message. The other day I 39 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 3: got a phone call and the voice on the other 40 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 3: end of the phone said, Victoria, I gotta tell you something, 41 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 3: but don't worry about what I'm going to tell you. Well, 42 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 3: automatically my worry was kicked in. That was my first response. 43 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 3: I thought, Oh my gosh, what do I have to 44 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 3: worry about? 45 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 1: You? 46 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:17,079 Speaker 3: See, that's what happens. Sometimes our worry automatically kicks in 47 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 3: without us even knowing it. We just worry when a 48 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 3: concern or a care comes into our life. Now, this 49 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 3: particular problem was not huge, it wasn't monumental, but it 50 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 3: was a problem all the same. It was something that 51 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 3: needed to be resolved. So I had to push pause 52 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 3: for a moment and make a decision. Was I going 53 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 3: to let this concern overtake me, cause my mind to 54 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 3: just spin out of control, fret and worry until the 55 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 3: problem has resolved itself. Was I going to ruin my 56 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 3: entire day because of this concern? Are was I going 57 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 3: to say? God, you got to help me with this situation. God, 58 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 3: I got to present this to you. You know everything 59 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 3: about me. You said you'd fight my battles for me. Now, God, 60 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 3: I am giving this to you, and I'm going to 61 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 3: try to rest and hear everything you would want me 62 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,399 Speaker 3: to hear from you. You see, we have to make 63 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 3: this choice. How are we going to handle this thing 64 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 3: called worry? Are we going to just work it in 65 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 3: our minds? You know? Sometimes I when I worry, it's 66 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 3: like I'm really doing something. I'm just working it and 67 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 3: working it and working it in my mind. I heard 68 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 3: worry was a lot like sitting in a rocking chair. 69 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 3: You're doing something, but it's getting you nowhere. We're just 70 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 3: working it and working it and working it in our minds, 71 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 3: and that's so unproductive. My question today is how are 72 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 3: you handling worry? Because how we handle worry and stress 73 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 3: is going to make all the difference in our life. 74 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 3: There's two sisters in the Bible named Mary and Martha. 75 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,559 Speaker 3: You can find their story in Luke. Mary and Martha 76 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 3: two sisters. They had a brother. They were obviously, from 77 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 3: what the scholars say, well to do people. So they 78 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 3: had a lot going on in their life. They had 79 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 3: money to mandage, they had a home to manage, they 80 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 3: had a lot of things happening. One day, Jesus came 81 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 3: to their home. He was going to stay with them, 82 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 3: he was going to fellowship with them. I'm sure they 83 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 3: were so excited. I'm sure that everybody in the town knew, hey, 84 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 3: Jesus is coming over to my house. Because this was 85 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 3: a very important person. So I'm sure they were preparing. 86 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 3: They were getting everything just perfect for Jesus. Jesus came 87 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 3: to their home and as they were fellowshipping, and as 88 00:04:54,880 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 3: they were enjoying Jesus, Jesus noticed something about Martha. She 89 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,840 Speaker 3: was buzzing around. She was working it, working it, working it, 90 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 3: And he said to her, Martha, Martha, why are you 91 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 3: so anxious and troubled about so many things? You see, 92 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 3: he had observed Martha as they were in this home. 93 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 3: He saw how she was handling all that to do 94 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 3: that was going on. But in contrast, here's her sister Mary. 95 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 3: Now Mary would had as much responsibility as Martha did. 96 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 3: But Mary said, I'm going to take this opportunity when 97 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 3: all my busyness and all the concerns that I have 98 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 3: to just linger here with Jesus because he's at my 99 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 3: house today. I want to sit at his feet. I'm 100 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 3: going to pour out my heart to him so he 101 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 3: can pour in his thoughts to me. You see, Martha 102 00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:01,040 Speaker 3: was so disturbed that her sister would have the audacity 103 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 3: to sit at the feet of Jesus when there was 104 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 3: so much to do that she said, Jesus, you need 105 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 3: to tell my sister to come help me. She needs 106 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 3: to get up, and she needs to get in this kitchen. 107 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 3: There's the emails to answer, there's stuff on the stove, 108 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 3: the kids needed to be taken care of. There's a 109 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 3: bunch of stuff to do, and she needs to get 110 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 3: up and she needs to help me. Can you believe 111 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 3: she would even say that to her? Guest of honor, 112 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 3: he said, to her, Mary has chosen the one important thing. 113 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 3: She's chosen that one thing. She's chosen the better way. Now, 114 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 3: let me just tell you this right now, He said, 115 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 3: there's one important thing. There's a better way. Now. He 116 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 3: was very much aware of the legitimate concerns that these 117 00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 3: women had. The Bible says that Jesus said, in this world, 118 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,119 Speaker 3: you're gonna have trouble, You're gonna have hardship, You're gonna 119 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 3: have some things that come against you. But be of 120 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 3: good cheer. I have already overcome the world. Be of 121 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 3: good cheer. I've already overcome the world. I guess when 122 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 3: you look at that scripture, you can say, easy for 123 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 3: you to say, Jesus, You're God. I still have these 124 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 3: troubles and these concerns. But this is what he was saying. 125 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 3: He wasn't saying that you shouldn't take your responsibility seriously. 126 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 3: He wasn't saying that there weren't legitimately things to be done. 127 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 3: He was saying, there's one important thing, and it's the 128 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 3: better way. What he was saying is all these concerns, 129 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 3: all these crisis, all these things that are coming against you, 130 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 3: you need to come hang around at my feet, linger 131 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 3: in my presence, because see, that's the one important thing 132 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 3: that's gonna help you get through. That's the better way 133 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 3: to handle worry and stress. That's the better way to 134 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 3: handle worry and stress. You see. I believe that Mary 135 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 3: somehow figured out the better way, and she did it. 136 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 3: It wasn't that she was lazy. It wasn't that she 137 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 3: didn't care. Mary said, look, this is my chance right 138 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 3: now to empty out the concerns and to put in 139 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 3: all that God is. You See, that's the better way. 140 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 3: Have you ever planned a birthday party or a holiday 141 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 3: celebration at your house or some gathering and you were 142 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 3: so stressed out that you made your own self miserable 143 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 3: and maybe some of your friends and family as well. 144 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 3: There's a better way to handle the stresses of life. 145 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 3: The word worry comes from an old English word in 146 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 3: the fifteen hundreds that meant to strangle, to strangle. I 147 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 3: think that's an amazing interpretation of that word, because worry 148 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 3: and stress literally chokes the fun out of life. It 149 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 3: literally pressures us in every relationship that we have. It 150 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 3: steals our joy. Think about it. Jesus was at Martha's house. 151 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:19,079 Speaker 3: She couldn't even enjoy the fact that Jesus was there. 152 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 3: She missed the whole beauty of the moment. She couldn't 153 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 3: calm down, relax and be peaceful. She allowed the stress 154 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 3: that was going on in her mind to strain the 155 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 3: relationship with her own sister. See, it was an attitude 156 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 3: that changed. Worry doesn't change anything but your personality. It 157 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 3: changes your disposition. It doesn't make the situation better, Actually 158 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 3: it makes the situation worse. I worked with a woman 159 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 3: several years ago, and she had some legitimate concerns in 160 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 3: her life, and I could see how was affecting her 161 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 3: entire life. Her son was in the military and he 162 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 3: had been deployed to another country. She was extremely concerned 163 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 3: about his well being and if he was gonna make it, 164 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 3: and how things were going. 165 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:15,959 Speaker 1: She was so. 166 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 3: Concerned and so worked up that I saw it begin 167 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 3: to change her disposition, change her personality. She could hardly 168 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 3: even function at work and I said to her, I said, look, 169 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,239 Speaker 3: there's got to be a better way to handle this situation. 170 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 3: I mean, he is there. There is not a thing 171 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 3: that you can do about it. You've got to come 172 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:38,319 Speaker 3: to this place of peace and rest in the Lord. 173 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 3: So I began to pray with her, and then I 174 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,839 Speaker 3: began to make some suggestions. I said, look, you need 175 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 3: to get some scriptures. You need to have them ready, 176 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 3: just as your warfare. When these thoughts start strangling your 177 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 3: joy and your peace, you need to write out some declarations. 178 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 3: When you feel that tension coming against you, you need 179 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 3: to say God, thank you that my son is in 180 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 3: the palm of your hand. Thank you Father, that no 181 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 3: weapon formed against him will prosper. Father, thank you, your 182 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 3: angels have charge over him to keep him in all 183 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 3: of his ways. He won't even dash his foot against 184 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 3: the stone, but he'll tread upon the lion and the cobra, 185 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 3: the young lion shall he trample underfoot? Thank you Father, 186 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:25,439 Speaker 3: you put a bloodline around him that the enemy cannot cross. Father, 187 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:30,199 Speaker 3: I thank you Lord that my son will come home safely. 188 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 3: I begin to see her put this into practice. Little 189 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 3: by little, she began to take control over that worry 190 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 3: and I could see the strength come back. I could 191 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 3: see her focus and her resolve come back. She began 192 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 3: to praise God in the midst of her fear and 193 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 3: her torment, and it made all the difference in her life. 194 00:11:55,840 --> 00:12:01,079 Speaker 3: You see, worry pulls us away from God's power, but 195 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 3: worship and praise draws us to Him and it changes 196 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 3: the situation. I have a good news to report. Six 197 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 3: years servant in the military, and her son came home safely. 198 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 3: He came home safely because he worries of weight. It 199 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 3: weighs us down, causes us to not be productive. In fact, 200 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 3: the Bible says, lay aside every weight that would so 201 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:38,559 Speaker 3: easily beset us come on us. So you have to 202 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 3: lay it aside because it says that you have to 203 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 3: run with purpose in every step, and when you are 204 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 3: weighed down, you can't run. My sweet friend was so 205 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 3: rayed down she couldn't hardly get to work, much less run. 206 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 3: You see, when she began to lay aside that weight, 207 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 3: she was able to run out her purpose. See her prayers. 208 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 3: Her intercession for her son was much more powerful than 209 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 3: her worry. When she talked to him on the phone, 210 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,439 Speaker 3: she could say, son, I want to tell you, I'm 211 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 3: praying for you. The angels of the Lords have charge 212 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 3: over you. You walk out, and you be bold with confidence, 213 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 3: know that God Almighty is looking after you. She could 214 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 3: encourage him to pray for himself. You see, when she 215 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 3: began to lay aside the weight and run with purpose, 216 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 3: she was way more effective. There's a technique that I use, 217 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 3: and I've used it for years and it works for me. 218 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 3: You just got to find something that works for you, right. So, 219 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 3: when I had these concerns in these troubles, I imagine 220 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 3: a big helium balloon, big beautiful balloon, red red balloon. 221 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 3: It's a power color. And I began to put those 222 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 3: troubles in that balloon. And I imagine myself holding that 223 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 3: balloon by this stream, holding it out in front of me, 224 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 3: with those troubles. And I look at that balloon and 225 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 3: I let it go and I release it to God, 226 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 3: and I say, God, thank you that you're bigger than 227 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 3: all these troubles. Thank you that you love me, and 228 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 3: that you said you'd perfect those things that concern me. 229 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 3: So I'm gonna give them to you. These troubles are 230 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 3: just gonna go right at your feet. Jesus You're gonna 231 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 3: take care of them. You see, sometimes I have to 232 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 3: admit sometimes I have to let go of a whole 233 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 3: bouquet of balloons. Do what you gotta do, Do what 234 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 3: you gotta do to release the worry and the care, 235 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 3: because Jesus will sustain you when you release it to him. Listen, 236 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 3: if you feel the pressure, the stranglehold of worry coming 237 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 3: on you, even if it's automatic, push the pause button. 238 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 3: Let's be like Mary. Let's take a lesson from this 239 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 3: woman and let's sit at his feet. Let's linger there 240 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 3: for a while. Let's empty out the concerns so that 241 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 3: we'll have room to receive His goodness, his thoughts towards us, 242 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 3: his wisdom, his joy. Listen. Wait is only going to 243 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 3: weigh you down, but when you let it go to him, 244 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 3: all things can be new again.
