He said, 48 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 3: I want to speak to the head hag at the trough. 49 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 3: The secretary was offended. She said, if you mean the pastor, 50 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 3: you're going to have to call him pastor, but you 51 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 3: may not call him the head hog at the trough. 52 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 3: He said, well, find but I was thinking about making 53 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 3: a ten thousand dollars donation to your church. She said, 54 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 3: hang on, Porky just walked in. Hold up your bibles. 55 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 3: Say it like you mean it. This is my Bible. 56 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 3: I am what it says I am. I have what 57 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 3: it says I have. I can do what it says 58 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 3: I can do. Today I will be taught the word 59 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 3: of God. I boldly confess. My mind is alert, my 60 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 3: heart is receptive. I will never be the same. In Jesus' name, 61 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 3: God bless you. I want to talk to you today 62 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 3: about get over it. Too many people go through life 63 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 3: thinking somebody owes them something. They didn't have a perfect childhood. 64 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,959 Speaker 3: Now they're offended at their parents. They got laid off 65 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 3: after years with the company. They're offended at a boss, 66 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 3: or maybe they came down with an illness. Life threw 67 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 3: them a curve. They went through a divorce, didn't get 68 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 3: the promotion. Now they're offended at God. They've got a 69 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 3: chip on their shoulder, bitterness on the inside. If God 70 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 3: was so good, how could he let this happen to me? 71 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 2: No. 72 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 3: God never promised that life would be fair, but he 73 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 3: did promise if you would stay in faith, he will 74 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 3: take what's meant for your harm and use it to 75 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 3: your advantage. Nothing that's happened to you is a surprise 76 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 3: to God. The people that raised you may not have 77 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 3: given you everything you needed. It may not have been fair, 78 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 3: but that didn't catch God off guard. Use it as 79 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 3: an excuse to be bitter, thinking that you got cheated. 80 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 3: If you'll get over it, God will still get you 81 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 3: to where you're supposed to be. The person that did 82 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 3: you wrong in a relationship, the betrayal, the divorce. It 83 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 3: may have been painful, it wasn't right. But if you'll 84 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 3: get over it, quit reliving all the hurt and pain, 85 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 3: and start moving forward, then you'll come in to the 86 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 3: new beginning God has in store. My message today is 87 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 3: very simple. Now I say it respectfully. Whatever wrong that 88 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 3: was done, whatever's causing you to feel sour, whatever seems unfair, 89 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 3: Get over it. Well, Joel, all my friends are married, 90 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,359 Speaker 3: I'm still single. Get over it. Don't let that bitterness 91 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 3: take root. That will keep the right person from showing up. Well, 92 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 3: I wish I was a different nationality. I wish I 93 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 3: came from a different family. Get over it. God knows 94 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 3: what he's doing. God wasn't having a bad day when 95 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 3: he created you. You are not at a disadvantage. You 96 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:11,159 Speaker 3: have been fearfully and wonderfully made for Joel. My friends 97 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 3: seems like they've got more golden for them. He's more talented, 98 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 3: she's more beautiful. I feel like I got short changed. No, 99 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 3: get over it. You have exactly what you need to 100 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 3: fulfill your destiny. Well, they did me wrong, they left 101 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,479 Speaker 3: me out. Get over it and God will make it 102 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 3: up to you. Get over it and God will fight 103 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:35,479 Speaker 3: your battles. I've heard it said you can be pitiful 104 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 3: or you can be powerful, but you cannot be both. 105 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 3: And instead of sitting around thinking about all the reasons 106 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 3: you have to feel sorry for yourself, the bad breaks, 107 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 3: the disadvantages, you've got to take the hands you've been 108 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 3: dealt and make the most of it. Nothing that you've 109 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 3: been through has to keep you from becoming all God's 110 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 3: created you to be. My mother had polio as a child. 111 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 3: She had to wear a brace on her leg. Now 112 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 3: one of her legs is much smaller than the other leg. 113 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 3: When she goes to buy shoes, she has to buy 114 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 3: two pair of the same shoe because her feet are 115 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 3: different sizes. She could have been embarrassed by that shrunk back, 116 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 3: tried to hide it, let it cause her to feel 117 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 3: less than, but she never did. She knows she's been 118 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 3: made in the image of Almighty God. Growing up, that 119 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 3: never kept her from wearing a dress. In fact, she 120 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 3: still wears dresses today, nearly eighty years old, still showing 121 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 3: off her legs. That never kept her from working out 122 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 3: in the yard doesn't stop her from praying for other 123 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:46,840 Speaker 3: people that need healing. In spite of the quote disadvantage, 124 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 3: she's gone on to live a full, blessed life. Why 125 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 3: she got over it. She didn't make excuses. She didn't 126 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 3: fall into the self pity trap. Sometimes we think, well, 127 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 3: if I had their life, if I had his talent, 128 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 3: if I was born into that family, then I could 129 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 3: do something great. No, don't compare your situation to somebody else's. 130 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 3: You're not running their race. It may seem like they 131 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 3: have more advantages, they have more going for them, But 132 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 3: God has giving you the grace you need to fulfill 133 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 3: your destiny. You're not anointed to be them, You're anointed 134 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 3: to be you. You got to shake off any self pity, 135 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 3: any bitterness. Our attitude should be Nobody owes me anything. 136 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 3: I am not at a disadvantage. I didn't get left out, shortchanged, passed, 137 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 3: over cheated. I am equipped, empowered, and anointed. All the 138 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 3: forces of darkness cannot keep me from my destiny. Fringe. 139 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 3: Your time is too valuable. You're assignment too important to 140 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 3: go through life thinking about what you didn't get, who 141 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 3: hurts you, and how it didn't work out. That is 142 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 3: a trick of the enemy to get you distracted, wasting 143 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 3: valuable energy on things that don't matter. He would love 144 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 3: to keep you discouraged in self pity, blaming others, blaming yourself, 145 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 3: even blaming God. I'm asking you today to get over 146 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 3: anything that's holding you back. A bad attitude, an offense, 147 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 3: what somebody did to you, a mistake you made, don't 148 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 3: be pitiful when you can be powerful. The creator of 149 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 3: the universe breathed his life into you. Every day of 150 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 3: your life has already been written in God's book. And 151 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 3: the good news is your book ends in victory. And yes, 152 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 3: we all go through tough times, but we're not supposed 153 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 3: to stay there. Keep turning the page and you'll come 154 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:53,199 Speaker 3: in to another victory. God knew there'd be unfair situations. 155 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 3: That's why He's already arranged a comeback for every setback, 156 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 3: vindication for every wrong, a new beginning for every disappointment. Now, 157 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 3: don't let one bad break, a divorce, a rough childhood 158 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 3: cause you to get soured on life. If you didn't 159 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 3: get the promotion, get over it. God has something better 160 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 3: in store. If those friends don't accept you, they leave 161 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 3: you out, won't give you their approval. Get over it. 162 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 3: You don't need their approval. Don't go trying to play 163 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 3: up to them, trying to win them over. You have 164 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 3: Almighty God's approval. That's all that matters. Maybe your business 165 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 3: didn't make it, you had to set back. Now you think, oh, 166 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 3: what did I do wrong? I blew it? This is 167 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 3: the end. No, get over it. Don't condemn yourself. You 168 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 3: are not a failure. You took a step of faith 169 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 3: and a door closed. That means you're one step closer 170 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,319 Speaker 3: to an open door. When you get knocked down, don't 171 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 3: stay down, get back up again. Nothing good is going 172 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 3: to happen as long as you're down on yourself, down 173 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 3: on life, focused on your mistakes, your disadvantages, that's going 174 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 3: to keep you from the amazing future God has in store. 175 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 3: I know some of you are dealing with the sickness. Now. 176 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,199 Speaker 3: Our hearts go out to you. We're standing in faith 177 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 3: with you. But don't you dare sit around nursing your wounds, thinking, 178 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,319 Speaker 3: poor old me, I guess my life is over. I've 179 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 3: got this disadvantage. No, dig your heels in and fight 180 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 3: the good fight of faith. God did not bring you 181 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 3: this far to leave you. When the going gets tough, 182 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 3: the tough have to get going. Get over the disappointment, 183 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 3: get over the self pity, get over the doubt. You 184 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 3: have been armed with strength for this battle. No weapon 185 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 3: formed against you is going to prosper. Nothing can snatch 186 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 3: you out of God's hand. The enemy doesn't have the 187 00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 3: final say. God has the final say, and he says 188 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 3: the number of your days he will fulfill. You keep 189 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 3: turning that page, praying, believing, being your best, being good 190 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 3: to other people, and you're going to come into another chapter, 191 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 3: a chapter of victory. Think about Job. He had a 192 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 3: lot to get over. He lost his health, his family, 193 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,439 Speaker 3: his business. If anybody had a right, at least in 194 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 3: the natural, to have a chip on their shoulder be 195 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 3: angry and bitter, it would have been Job. He was 196 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 3: a good man, he loved God, he was being his best, 197 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 3: yet his whole life was turned upside down. The scripture says, 198 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 3: rain falls on the just and the unjust. I'd love 199 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 3: to tell you that if you have faith and you 200 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,719 Speaker 3: love God, you'll never have any difficulties. But that's not reality. 201 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 3: But I can tell you when the storms come, if 202 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 3: you've got your house built upon the rock, if you've 203 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 3: got an un shakable confidence in God, if you know 204 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 3: the Lord as your shepherd, the storms will come, but 205 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 3: you will not be defeated. When it's all said and done. 206 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 3: You may go through the fire, through the flood, through 207 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 3: the famine, but you'll come out still standing strong. Don't 208 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 3: be discouraged by the storm, don't fall into self pity. 209 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 3: I don't know what I did wrong. No, you may 210 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 3: not have done anything wrong. May be because you're doing 211 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 3: something right. You're taking new ground for the kingdom. You're 212 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 3: setting a new standard for your family. The enemy's not 213 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 3: gonna roll out the red carpet and let us fulfill 214 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,320 Speaker 3: our destiny. But know this, the forces that are for 215 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 3: you are greater than the forces that are against you. 216 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,079 Speaker 3: Job could have given up on life blame God, thought, ah, 217 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 3: just my luck. I do my best and look what 218 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 3: happens to me. No, Right in the middle of the difficulty, 219 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 3: when he could have been bitter and sour, he looked 220 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 3: up to the heaven and said, though he slay me, yet, 221 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 3: will I trust him? He was saying, in effect, no 222 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 3: matter what comes my way, I'm not gonna get bitter, angry, offended, 223 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 3: have a chip on my shoulder. It may not be fair, 224 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 3: but I know a secret. My God is still on 225 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 3: the throne. He will make my wrongs right. I may 226 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 3: not like it, but I'm gonna get over it and 227 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 3: keep moving forward. Nine months later, Job came out with 228 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 3: twice what he had before. When you get over it, 229 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 3: you position yourself for double. When you forgive even though 230 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 3: they did you wrong, get ready for double when you 231 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 3: have a good attitude even though life has thrown you 232 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 3: a curve. Get ready for double when you go through 233 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 3: the day being your best, even though it seems like 234 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 3: you got a disadvantage. Thoughts tell you you're not as 235 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 3: talented as she is. Look at him, he comes from 236 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 3: an influential family. You got cheated. Look at her, She's 237 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 3: so beautiful. You're so average. No, you know better than 238 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 3: to believe those lies. Instead of getting depressed, you shake 239 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 3: it off, knowing that you have been made in the 240 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 3: image of Almighty God. You have royal blood flowing through 241 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 3: your veins. You don't let those thoughts defeat you. You 242 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 3: don't let what people say circumstances pull you down. No 243 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 3: matter what comes your way, you get over it and 244 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 3: keep moving forward. When you do that, you better get ready. 245 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 3: God says to you what he says to job. Double 246 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 3: is coming your way, Double the joy, double the peace, 247 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 3: double the favor. Is there something you need to get 248 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 3: over today? Get over a friend that betrayed you, Get 249 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 3: over a business deal that didn't work out, Get over 250 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 3: a childhood that wasn't that great. Unless you get over it, 251 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 3: it will keep you from the fullness God has in store. 252 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 3: The key to the double is will you not get bitter? 253 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 3: Will you not have a chip on your shoulder, go 254 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 3: around thinking that somebody owes you something. It's easy to 255 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 3: make excuses to live a sour life. Have you noticed 256 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 3: these days, especially, people blame the past. They blame how 257 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 3: they were raised. Mama didn't give me what she should 258 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 3: have given me. My father wasn't around growing up. That's 259 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 3: why I'm bitter. That's why I can't get along with people. 260 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 3: That's why I can't be successful. Now, what your mother 261 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 3: or father didn't give you is not a surprise to God. 262 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 3: Don't use that as an excuse to be sour and 263 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 3: go through life feeling short changed. I say it again, respectfully, 264 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 3: get over it, start moving forward. This is a new day. 265 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 3: God knew who your parents would be, He knew what 266 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 3: kind of environment you would be raised in. And I'm 267 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 3: not making light of it. Because some people came through 268 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 3: a very unfair situation. They didn't get the love, the approval, 269 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 3: the support they should have. But I don't believe in 270 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 3: giving anyone the right to feel sorry for themselves because 271 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 3: as long as they think they got short changed and 272 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 3: life is not fair. Now I've got this sickness, Joel, 273 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 3: and I'm not that talented that will keep you from 274 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 3: the amazing future God has In story, it may not 275 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 3: have been fair, but if you'll have the right attitude 276 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 3: instead of being a set back, it'll be a set 277 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 3: up for God to do something great in your life. 278 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 3: But I know people fifty years old still talking about 279 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 3: what mama didn't give them. Have you ever thought about 280 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 3: maybe mama didn't have it to give. Maybe your father 281 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 3: did the best he could with what he had. Sometimes 282 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 3: we rely too much on people when we should be 283 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 3: relying on God. Psalm twenty seven to ten says God 284 00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 3: adopts us as his very own children. Mother or father 285 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 3: may not have given you what you needed, but if 286 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 3: you'll start looking to God, he will make up for 287 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 3: everything that you did not get. I've heard it said, 288 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 3: if you want someone to give you one hundred percent, 289 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 3: don't look around, look up. God is the only one 290 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 3: that can give you everything that you need. And some people, 291 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 3: it's not that they don't want to. They were never 292 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 3: taught how to show love, to express approval. They never 293 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,880 Speaker 3: saw that model growing up. Now they're passing down what 294 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 3: they've seen. And if you only look to people you'll 295 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:40,360 Speaker 3: be disappointed. People will let you down, and if you're 296 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 3: not careful, you'll get bitter and resentful toward them and 297 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 3: think you owe me, Why won't you give it to me? 298 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 3: What's wrong with you now? Maybe God is teaching you 299 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 3: to not rely on people, but to rely on him. 300 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 3: You've got to let people off the hook. Quit trying 301 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 3: to make someone be everything to you. No one person 302 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,919 Speaker 3: has one hundred percent. No person can meet all your needs. 303 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,399 Speaker 3: No matter how good they are, how loving, how kind, 304 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 3: at some point they'll fall short. You got to look 305 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 3: up to your heavenly father and say, God, I know 306 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:22,680 Speaker 3: you will give me everything that I need. My father 307 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 3: told how when he was in his late forties, he 308 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 3: started thinking about how he had had such a rough childhood. 309 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 3: His family was very poor and at times they barely 310 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:37,400 Speaker 3: had food to survive. He went around with old, raggedy 311 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 3: clothes had holes in them, and one day it just 312 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 3: hit him as being so unfair. He got a little 313 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:48,119 Speaker 3: aggravated at his parents. He thought, why didn't they raise 314 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 3: me better? Why wasn't my father around to give me 315 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 3: the support, the encouragement that I needed. When you open 316 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 3: the door to self pity, to blame. All kinds of 317 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 3: negative thoughts will flood your mind. The enemy will be 318 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 3: right there to aag you on, tell you you're right. They 319 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 3: did you wrong, You got cheated. You should have a 320 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 3: chip on your shoulder. You need to go straighten them out. 321 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 3: My father was about to drive from Houston to Dallas 322 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 3: to tell his parents exactly what he thought and how 323 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 3: they didn't do a good job on him and they 324 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 3: put him at a disadvantage and it just wasn't fair. 325 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 3: Before he left, God spoke to him, not out loud, 326 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 3: but down in here. He said, son, they did you wrong, 327 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 3: didn't they. Daddy said, yeah, God, they did. They didn't 328 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 3: give you what you needed, did they? No, God, they didn't. 329 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:44,640 Speaker 3: Wasn't fair, was it? No, it wasn't fair, God said, son, 330 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 3: How do you think you would have done if you 331 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 3: would have been in their shoes with no money, with 332 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:57,200 Speaker 3: no air conditioning, no dishwasher, no washing machine. Mother working 333 00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 3: twelve hours a day making ten cents an hour. Father 334 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 3: with a fourth grade education, lost everything on the farm 335 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 3: during the Great Depression standing in line for food, Son, 336 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 3: do you think you may have made a few mistakes? 337 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 3: When my father saw it from that perspective, he realized 338 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 3: his parents had done an amazing job considering the circumstances 339 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 3: that they had. But it's easy to remember what we 340 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,479 Speaker 3: didn't get and where they made a mistake, how they 341 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 3: should have done better, and why did they say that? 342 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 3: But most of the time, if you put yourself in 343 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:40,159 Speaker 3: their shoes, you'll find they did the best they could 344 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,400 Speaker 3: with what they had. Why don't you let people off 345 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:47,399 Speaker 3: the hook? Quit expecting them to be perfect. Look to 346 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,439 Speaker 3: God to give you what people could not give you. 347 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 3: If you don't, and you go through life thinking somebody 348 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 3: owes you something, you got that chip on your shoulder, 349 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 3: it's going to cause you to get bitter. When you're bitter, 350 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 3: it poisons every area of your life. Hebrews twelve talks 351 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 3: about that root of bitterness. Now I've learned that a 352 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 3: bitter root will always produce bitter fruit. Bitter people don't 353 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 3: have good relationships. They're too negative. When we're bitter, it 354 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 3: affects our attitude. We see everything through a critical lens. 355 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 3: Nothing is ever good enough. Bitter people they can smile 356 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,159 Speaker 3: on the outside, how you doing, good to see you today, 357 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 3: But on the inside they're thinking, I don't like you. 358 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 3: Why'd you show up here. Bitterness taints everything about them. 359 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:44,919 Speaker 3: It follows you everywhere you go. It's like this grandfather 360 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,879 Speaker 3: I heard about. He took a nap one afternoon in 361 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 3: the family room. His grandkids decided to play a trick 362 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 3: on him. They got some real strong smelling cheese. It's 363 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 3: very potent, smelled really bad, and while he was sleeping, 364 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,679 Speaker 3: the knuck over and rubbed some of that cheese on 365 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 3: his mustache. A couple of minutes later, his nose began 366 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 3: to twitch. Finally woke up, thought, boy, it stinks in 367 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 3: this room. He left the family room to go into 368 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,400 Speaker 3: the kitchen get some relief. He took a sniff here, 369 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 3: a sniff there, same thing stinks in this room. Frustrated, 370 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,640 Speaker 3: he went outside to get a breath of fresh air. 371 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,880 Speaker 3: He took a deep breath of fresh air, shook his head, 372 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 3: and said, man, the whole world stinks. If the whole 373 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 3: world ever stinks for you, might I suggest you look inside. 374 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 3: Maybe there's some adjustments you need to make. Bitterness will 375 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:44,439 Speaker 3: follow you everywhere you go. I know a man he 376 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 3: got bent out of shape at how his former employer 377 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,880 Speaker 3: had treated him. Overall, this boss had been very good 378 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 3: to him, loving and kind, just a few things here 379 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 3: and there. He could have overlooked it, not paid any attention, 380 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 3: focused on the good, But he made the stake of 381 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:05,920 Speaker 3: letting the bitterness take root. Today, twenty years later, the 382 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 3: fruit from that bitter root is starting to show up. 383 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 3: He's a negative, always finding fault, critical, got a chip 384 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 3: on his shoulder. When we hold on to things we 385 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 3: should be letting go of, when we don't forgive, when 386 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,880 Speaker 3: we remember the worst, it's not harming the other person, 387 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 3: it's poisoning our own life. God is saying today, get 388 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 3: over it. Life is flying by. You don't have time 389 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 3: to waste another minute being negative, offended, bitter. So they 390 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 3: did you wrong. Get over it and God will make 391 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 3: it up to you. So you had a bad break, 392 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 3: a disadvantage, Get over it. God is still on the throne. 393 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 3: My friend Nick voygecheck. We've had him speak for us here. 394 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 3: He was born with no arms and no legs. All 395 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 3: he has is his Torso he could be sitting around 396 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 3: saying God, it's not fair. I have no reason to live. 397 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 3: I have no future in front of me. No, Nick 398 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,680 Speaker 3: has taken the hand he was dealt and he's making 399 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 3: the most of it. Today he's a minister that goes 400 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 3: all over the world challenging people to not let any 401 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 3: disadvantage hold them back. Are you making an excuse for 402 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,440 Speaker 3: some reason you can't be happy, an excuse for why 403 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 3: you can't succeed, Joel. They hurt me too badly. That's 404 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 3: why I can't forgive. No, you're not forgiving for their sake. 405 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 3: You're forgiving so that you can be free. Joel. I've 406 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 3: had some rough times, had a bad break in my business. 407 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,959 Speaker 3: Get over it. You wouldn't be alive unless God had 408 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,640 Speaker 3: another victory in front of you. Nothing in life has 409 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:51,119 Speaker 3: happened to you. It's happened for you. Every disappointment, every wrong, 410 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 3: even every closed door, has helped make you into who 411 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 3: you are. You are not defined by your past. You 412 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 3: are prepared by your past. You may have encountered some 413 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 3: great obstacles, it's because God has a great future in 414 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 3: front of you. I read about a young man his 415 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:12,159 Speaker 3: dream was to play professional baseball, and all through junior 416 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 3: high and high school, he was by far the best 417 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 3: player in the league. But one day he had a 418 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 3: farming accident and he lost all of his forefinger in 419 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:26,199 Speaker 3: most of his middle finger. It just so happened. It 420 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,399 Speaker 3: was on the hand that he threw the baseball with. 421 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 3: It looked like his career in baseball was over. But 422 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 3: this young man didn't sit around in self pity nursing 423 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 3: his wounds. He learned how to throw the ball without 424 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 3: these two fingers. If you know much about baseball, those 425 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 3: are the fingers that you normally used to throw the ball. 426 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 3: He had always played third base. One day during practice, 427 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 3: the coach was standing behind him and noticed that when 428 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 3: he threw the ball to first base, the ball had 429 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 3: all kinds of movement on him. The coach thought, how 430 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:06,160 Speaker 3: could a batter possibly hit that ball? He moved him 431 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 3: from third base to the pictures mound. Mordecai Brown went 432 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 3: on to become one of the greatest pictures in all 433 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 3: of professional baseball. If you will get over what you 434 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 3: think is a disadvantage, God will take what looks like 435 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 3: a liability and turn it into an asset. It may 436 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:30,120 Speaker 3: not be something physical, but the way you were raised, 437 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 3: a mistake you made, what somebody did to you. We think, 438 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 3: if only I hadn't had that accident, then I could 439 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:41,400 Speaker 3: fulfill my dreams. If only I hadn't been through that divorce, 440 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 3: if only I hadn't gotten laid off. Listen, you got 441 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 3: to get rid of the if only thoughts, If only 442 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:52,199 Speaker 3: can keep you from your destiny. Nick could be saying, 443 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 3: if only I had arms and legs, then I could 444 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 3: make something of my life, mord toe Ki Brown. If 445 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,919 Speaker 3: only I had all my fingers my mother. If only 446 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 3: I hadn't had polio my father. If only I was 447 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 3: raised in a better environment, Zach Kis. If only I 448 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 3: was taller, David, if only Goliath wasn't so big, get in, 449 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:18,200 Speaker 3: If only I came from a better family, Joseph. If 450 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 3: only my brothers hadn't sold me into slavery. Now what's 451 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 3: happened may look like a disadvantage in your eyes, but 452 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:29,400 Speaker 3: it is not a disadvantage in God's eyes. It's not 453 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 3: going to keep you from your destiny. It's going to 454 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 3: thrust you into your divine destiny. Now I'm asking you 455 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 3: do your part. Get over anything that's holding you back. 456 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:45,160 Speaker 3: Get over what they said about you. They don't determine 457 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 3: your destiny. God does. Get over what didn't work out, 458 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,920 Speaker 3: Get over the mistake you made, Get over the disappointment. 459 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,679 Speaker 3: It may have been a setback, but it's not a 460 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 3: surprise to God. He's already arranged the comeback. Now our 461 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 3: attitude be Nobody owes me anything. I am not going 462 00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 3: through life with a chip on my shoulder. I'm letting 463 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 3: go of what didn't work out. I'm forgiving the people 464 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 3: that did me wrong. I'm pulling up the root of bitterness, 465 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 3: and I'm moving forward into the amazing future God has 466 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,639 Speaker 3: in store.

God's going to take what's meant for 470 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 3: harm and use it to your advantage. Like job, You're 471 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 3: not only going to come out, but you're going to 472 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:39,479 Speaker 3: come out better, stronger, Increase with twice the joy, twice 473 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 3: the peace, twice the victory in Jesus's name.
