1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:03,160 Speaker 1: Hi, this is Joel and Victoria. Thanks for listening to 2 00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,960 Speaker 1: our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry. 3 00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:08,440 Speaker 2: If you enjoy today's message, why don't you be a 4 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:09,720 Speaker 2: blessing and share it with a. 5 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:13,040 Speaker 1: Friend, reappreciate you and pray for God's very best in 6 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,280 Speaker 1: your life. God bless you. It's great to be with 7 00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:19,000 Speaker 1: you today, and I hope you'll stay connected with us 8 00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 1: during the week to our daily podcast, our YouTube channel, 9 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:25,560 Speaker 1: social media, and you can come visit us in person. 10 00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:27,400 Speaker 1: We'd love to have you be a part of one 11 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,480 Speaker 1: of our services. And I'd like to start with something funny. 12 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:33,560 Speaker 1: And I heard about this man that was very stingy 13 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,920 Speaker 1: with his money, and just before his death, he made 14 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,320 Speaker 1: his wife promise that she would have him buried with 15 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 1: the fifty thousand dollars he had saved. His wife reluctantly agreed, 16 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 1: and at the funeral, right before they closed the casket, 17 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: she snuck in this small wooden box. Her friend said, 18 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 1: surely you didn't just bury the money. She said, of 19 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 1: course I did. I'm a Christian. I can't lie. The 20 00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 1: friend said, you mean you just buried fifty thousand dollars. 21 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,039 Speaker 1: He said, yes, I did. I wrote a check say 22 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: it like a man. It This is my Bible. I 23 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 1: am what it says I am. I have what it 24 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 1: says I have. I can do what it says I 25 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: can do. Today I will be taught the word of God. 26 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: I boldly confess. My mind is alert, my heart is receptive. 27 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: I will never be the same. In Jesus' name, God 28 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: bless you. I want to talk to you today about 29 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: help from heaven. We all face challenges that we don't 30 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 1: see how we can overcome. We don't have the finances 31 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 1: for our dreams, or our health isn't improving. Maybe a 32 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 1: child is still off course. It's easy to get discouraged 33 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: and feel alone and even helpless. That's the way David felt. 34 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: He was hiding in a cave trying to survive. King 35 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: Saul was chasing him through the desert. Saul had a 36 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: whole army coming after him. David was by himself. He 37 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 1: had no weapons, no protection. What made it worse is 38 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: David had done no wrong. He had been good to 39 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: King's song. He played the harp when Saul was depressed. 40 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:14,360 Speaker 1: He was Saul's armor bearer. But Saul became jealous. He 41 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 1: couldn't stand the favor on David's life, and now he 42 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: was making David miserable. Have you ever been good to 43 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 1: someone but they turned on you. You did your best 44 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: at were but people tried to push you down. You 45 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: worked hard for a dream, but something unfair happening. Now 46 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:35,239 Speaker 1: you feel stuck. David could have been bitter, angry, God, 47 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: why did this happen? This could have been the end 48 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: of David, where he faded off into the sunset. But 49 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: David knew a secret. Sitting in that cave, he wrote 50 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: this passage in Psalm fifty seven. I am surrounded by 51 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:54,359 Speaker 1: fierce lines, those whose teeth pierced like spears, and tongues 52 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: cut like swords. I am weary from so much distress. 53 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: He was honest, God, I'm overwhelmed. Everything has come against me. 54 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 1: I don't know how it can go on. He went 55 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: on to say, I cry out to the Most time, 56 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: for he will send help from Heaven, rescuing me from 57 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: my enemies. David understood that he wasn't fighting on his own, 58 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 1: that it wasn't just up to him, but help from 59 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 1: Heaven was on the way. He had seen this when 60 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 1: he faced Goliath, a giant twice his size. He didn't 61 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,839 Speaker 1: have a chance. The odds against him, but help from 62 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: heaven came. God breathed on his slingshot, gave him supernatural ability, 63 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 1: and he brought the giant down. He should have been 64 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: stuck out in the shepherd's fields where his father left him, 65 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: didn't call him in. When the prophet Samuel came to 66 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: choose one of the sons as the next king, David 67 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: was overlooked, left out, didn't have a fair shot. But 68 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: help from heaven came. The oil wouldn't flow to one 69 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: of the other sons, Samuel couldn't anoint them. Why is 70 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: that there are heavenly forces fighting for you, angels. God 71 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: has an assignment to assist you. What you're up against 72 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 1: may be too much for you, but these powerful warriors 73 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: will push back what's trying to stop you. They are 74 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 1: dispatched with healing, freedom and breakthroughs. When you run out 75 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 1: of options and you don't have the strength the experience, 76 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,679 Speaker 1: you could live worried. Now have a new perspective. Help 77 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: from heaven is coming. Miracles are being set into motion. 78 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: See we look at things in the natural, Joel, this 79 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: is what I have and these are my options. Here's 80 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,720 Speaker 1: the medical report, here's the family I come from. What 81 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 1: you can't see is what Heaven is about to do. 82 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 1: And Jesus said to Peter, it's dangerous to see things 83 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 1: only from a human point of view. Interesting that Jesus 84 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: used the word dangerous. That's a strong word. He could 85 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 1: have said it's not good, it's unwise, it may limit you. 86 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: But the reason he said dangerous is if you only 87 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: look at what you're up against from a human perspective, 88 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 1: you can miss your destiny. He can think, Man, I'll 89 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: never get well. Joel saw so much bigger, this addiction stronger. 90 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: I don't have a chance. No, instead of giving up, 91 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: why don't you look up? Help from heaven is on 92 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: the way. You are God's most prized possession. He chose 93 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: you before you could choose him. He's planned your days, 94 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: ordered your steps, crowned you with favor. He goes before you, 95 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 1: making crooked places straight. He has his angels watching after you. 96 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 1: You're not doing life on your own. All of Heaven 97 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: is fighting for you. When you can't figure out what 98 00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: to do, how to work out that's when you have 99 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: to do like David, It's okay to be honest God. 100 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: This child is breaking my heart. This medical report doesn't 101 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: look good. And this jerk at work, I mean, this person, 102 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: it works getting on my nerves. But God, I want 103 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: to thank you that help from heaven is on the 104 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: way that you're fighting my battles, sustaining me, providing, protecting, 105 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: bringing victory. David said, I will lift my eyes to 106 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,359 Speaker 1: the heavens from whence my health comes. I talked to 107 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 1: a man after service last week and ask him how 108 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: he was doing, and seemed like he was fine, looks 109 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: successful and content, but he put his head down for 110 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 1: a long time. He finally looked up and said, Joel, 111 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: I'm going through hell. He lost a family member tragically 112 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,919 Speaker 1: and dealing with an illness. He said, I feel so lost, 113 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,919 Speaker 1: so alone, so overwhelmed, big tears running down his cheeks. 114 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: There's a lot of pain in the world, a lot 115 00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: of sadness. The scripture says, God collects your tears. He 116 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: knows the pain and the unfair things, and these times 117 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 1: we don't have any good options. There's no way out. 118 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: But can I encourage you? When hell comes against you, 119 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: Heaven comes to rescue. You are a God's property. You 120 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: belong to the most high. He has you in the 121 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: palm of his hand. He's not gonna leave you defenseless. 122 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: When forces come to try to stop your destiny, bring 123 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: trouble lass. Looks like you're stuck. Heaven doesn't stay silent. 124 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 1: Angels are dispatched, Miracles are set into motion. God is 125 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: fighting for you. Turnarounds are coming. Things that you couldn't 126 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: make happen. Looks like you're at the mercy of the 127 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: medical reporter. That child's too far off course now, the 128 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: addictions too strong. Or stay in peace. You have a defender, 129 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: a waymaker, a healer, a provider, a chain breaker. Help 130 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: from is on the way. I was watching this old 131 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: Western movie and this army had dwindled down to nothing. 132 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: They'd been battered and bruised and lost many men, and 133 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: now they're running out of supplies, all beat up on 134 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: their last leg, and there was an enemy army on 135 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: the other side of the mountain, much bigger, much more equipment. 136 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: They were about to attack. It was a very emotional 137 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 1: scene as they were coming to the end and they 138 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: were saying their goodbyes and preparing to either be captured 139 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: or killed. They had already accepted defeat. Wasn't any way out, 140 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 1: but way off in the distance one soldier saw this 141 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 1: dust billowing from an army approaching these horses coming full speed. 142 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: They were confused because the enemy army was in the 143 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: other directions. They got their binoculars focused in. When they 144 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 1: saw the flag, they realized it was an ally army 145 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 1: coming to rescue them. In a few minutes, they heard 146 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: the bugles playing. They couldn't believe it. They started shouting, 147 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: the cavalry is coming, The cavalry is coming. I mean 148 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: one moment they were discouraged, thinking they were done, preparing 149 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: to surrender. Now they're excited. They got all this power 150 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: force back up. When that enemy army came, it was 151 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: like surprise, we are not who you thought we were. 152 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 1: We're bigger, stronger, more powerful. They easily defeated the opposition. 153 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: Were sometimes in life like that, Men said, hell has 154 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 1: come against us. We're dealing with a sickness or family 155 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 1: trouble or business had a set back, and we end 156 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 1: up bruised, kind of alone. We're suffering from battle fatigue. 157 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 1: We've stood strong, we fought well, but now we don't 158 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: think we have the strength to keep pursuing the dream, 159 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:58,079 Speaker 1: the passion to keep fighting for our marriage, the endurance 160 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: to keep believing for our healing retired. What you can't 161 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: see is the cavalry is coming. There are forces that 162 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: have your back when you run out of options, out 163 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:13,599 Speaker 1: of strength. Heaven is on the way. Angels are en 164 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,559 Speaker 1: route to assist you, to push back darkness, to open 165 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,319 Speaker 1: doors you couldn't open, to bring healing, to bring breakthrough. 166 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: It's interesting that it's called the cavalry, reinforcements and back 167 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 1: up when heaven comes. It's because of what happened on Calvary. 168 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 1: It's because Jesus gave his life, defeated the enemy. Now 169 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 1: he has all power. That phrase the cavalry is coming 170 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: because in the natural means back up and soldiers. But 171 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: when we say the cavalry is coming, I'm talking about 172 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:51,079 Speaker 1: heavenly forces, the most High God fighting for you. On 173 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: your own. You may be outnumbered. What you're up against 174 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 1: is bigger, more powerful. But I got by binoculars through 175 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: my eyes of faith. I can see dust in the distance. 176 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: I can hear the trumpets blowing. What is that the 177 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 1: cavalry is on the way. That sickness should take you out, 178 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 1: but healing is coming. That bad break should keep you 179 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: in debt, but abundance is coming. That family member running 180 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,599 Speaker 1: with the wrong crowd should stop his purpose. But breakthrough 181 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: is coming back up. Forces are hitting you, away, angels 182 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 1: with the favor of God on assignment to assist you, 183 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: to strengthen you, to fight for you. If you could 184 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: see into the unseen realm, you would see these powerful 185 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: warriors working on your behalf, pushing back what's trying to 186 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: stop you, and breaking through what belongs to you. When 187 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: thoughts tell you and all your stuff it's too much, 188 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: You're too tired. You fought too long. Just look up 189 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: and say, Father, thank you. That the cavalry is coming. 190 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 1: Thank you, that health from heaven is on the way. 191 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: Heaven's help is supernatural. It's good breaks chasing you down, 192 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:13,239 Speaker 1: healing the right people showing up, freedom from bondagesm generational 193 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: limitations being broken. Tewod King's Chapter six. The King of 194 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: Syria found out that the prophet Elisha was telling the 195 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: Israelites battle plans of the Syrian army every time they 196 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: made a move to attack the Israelites. Elisha knew it 197 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: and went and told the commanders they were always one 198 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 1: step ahead of the Syrians. Well, this king was furious. 199 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 1: He sent a whole army, thousands of soldiers and horses 200 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 1: to capture one man, Elisha. That's how powerful you are. 201 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 1: The enemy knows it. The question is do you know it? 202 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: Do you realize who you are and what you have 203 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,679 Speaker 1: that because you belong to the most high, his favor 204 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: is your life, that there are heavenly forces backing you up. 205 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: The army snuck up at night and surrounded Elisha's house, 206 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 1: and the next morning, Elisha's assistant went out, and when 207 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 1: he saw thousands of troops and horses, he panicked, ran 208 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: back in. Woke Elisha up, Sir, we're surrounded. There's no 209 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 1: way out. Everywhere I look I saw the Syrian army, 210 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:31,199 Speaker 1: not hundreds, but thousands. He was so distraught, so upset. 211 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: Elisha said, don't worry. There are more for us than 212 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 1: there are against us. His assistant thought, he must still 213 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 1: be asleep. He's groggy. He doesn't understand it. And no, Elisha, 214 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 1: there are two of us, there are thousands of them. 215 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: This is why Jesus said it's dangerous if you only 216 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: see things from a human point of view. Because the 217 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: assistant was correct, they were surrounded. It was two people 218 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: verse twenty thousand. Well, Elisha understood that when the enemy 219 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: comes against you, Heaven shows up. God doesn't stay silent. 220 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 1: You may be outnumbered in the natural, but in the 221 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 1: unseen realm, there are more for you than there are 222 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: against you. While you were sleeping, the cavalry showed up. 223 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 1: God is watching over you. Nothing happens that he doesn't see. 224 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: When saw's chasing you and you're hiding in that cave, 225 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 1: so to speak, you can say, like David, I know 226 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: help from Heaven is on the way. Elisha didn't condemn 227 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: the assistant man. You need to have more faith. Why 228 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: are you always doubting? He simply prayed. Lord opened his 229 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 1: eyes and let him see. He went back out and 230 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: looked the second time. This time he could see into 231 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 1: the unseen realm. He didn't just see the army that 232 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 1: was surrounding them. He saw a heavenly army, hundreds of 233 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: thousands of these powerful, arring angels, dressed and ready for battle, 234 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 1: chariots of fire all across the mountain side. He thought 235 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: he was surrounded. The fact is the enemy was surrounded. 236 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 1: You may feel like you're surrounded today. What you're up 237 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: against is bigger, stronger. It's closing in. But what you 238 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 1: can't see is the forces of heaven are surrounding. What's 239 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: surrounding you feels like that trouble, that debt, that cancer 240 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: has you surrounded, But the cavalry has shown up. That 241 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: cancer is surrounded by the forces of heaven. Your child 242 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 1: is surrounded by angels. Your business is surrounded by the 243 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 1: favor of God. He's your protector, your shield, your healer, 244 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 1: your provider. No heaven faith doesn't keep us from trouble. 245 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 1: But when trouble shows up, Heaven comes down. God dispatches 246 00:15:56,240 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: these warring angels to watch after you, protect you, to 247 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 1: push back the darkness. And Elisha prayed that God would 248 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 1: make this enemy army blind to who he was. The 249 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: Syrian commander knocked on the door said, we're here looking 250 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: for Elisha. Elisha said, I'm so sorry. He's not here. 251 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: You've got the wrong house. In fact, you're in the 252 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: wrong city. If you'll follow me, I'll take you to Elisha. 253 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 1: One lie after another, sometimes you have to lie in faith. 254 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's in the scripture, but anyway, 255 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 1: this commander said, thank you so much. He followed Elisha 256 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: all the way to Samaria, to the Israelites camp. When 257 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: they arrived, Elisha prayed. Now God opened their eyes. Suddenly 258 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: they realized they were in Samaria, captured by the Israelites. 259 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 1: The scripture says, the trap the enemy set for you, 260 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 1: they will fall in themselves. God knows how to turn 261 00:16:56,400 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: things in your favor. I know this mother was so 262 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: concerned about her son, and he'd grown up in church 263 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 1: and had great parents. But after college he started running 264 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: with the wrong crowd and got involved in drugs, struggled 265 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 1: with addictions, and he ended up selling drugs. His life 266 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 1: was spiraling out of control. This mother had done everything 267 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 1: she could, prayed, stood in faith. She got him into 268 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 1: recovery at one point, but he wouldn't stay there. This 269 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 1: had gone on year after year, and now she was tired, 270 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: run down, didn't know any more she could do. God 271 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: sees these times you feel helpless alone, You don't have 272 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: any more options. Stay in peace. The Calvary is coming. 273 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:47,880 Speaker 1: Like with Elisha, Angels have been dispatched to push back 274 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 1: the darkness, to rescue your child, to bring your healing, 275 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: the freedom, the breakthroughs. You're not fighting on your own. 276 00:17:56,080 --> 00:18:00,640 Speaker 1: Heaven is fighting for you. God is concerned about what 277 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: concerns you a child that keeps you up at night, 278 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: the medical situation, the struggle in your business, thoughts whisper 279 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: and you're on your own. Nobody cares. Just get through it. 280 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 1: No God knows everything you're going through. He feels the pain, 281 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: he sees the lonely nights. He's going to step in 282 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,400 Speaker 1: and do things that you can't do. One night, this 283 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 1: young man was in another country. A drug deal had 284 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,199 Speaker 1: gone wrong, and he owed this man a lot of 285 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,400 Speaker 1: money and wasn't able to pay in These people were 286 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 1: after him. His life was on the line, and he 287 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: was hiding in a bathroom in this old downtown warehouse. 288 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: He locked the door, got behind a stall, hoping that 289 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 1: he wouldn't be found. Hour after hour went by. He 290 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,880 Speaker 1: was so afraid. He knew if he was caught, wasn't 291 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 1: going to be good. Three in the morning, he heard 292 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: rumbling outside the building, people talking, all this commotion, and 293 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 1: his heart was beating so fast. He knew they were closing. 294 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: In the warehouse, door flung open, he could hear the 295 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 1: footsteps getting closer and closer, people calling his name, Where 296 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: are you? Where are you? Then the moment came he 297 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 1: feared the most. They started pulling on the bathroom door, 298 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: trying to break the lock, working, working, Finally, one of 299 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 1: the men stepped back and kicked with all his might. 300 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: The door came crashing open, slammed against the wall, sounded 301 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:30,680 Speaker 1: like an explosion. He thought, oh man, I'm done. This 302 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 1: is the end. He had accepted his fate was sealed. 303 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: As he was sitting there, braced for the harm. They 304 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 1: opened the stall and said, we're with teen Challenge. We 305 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 1: heard you were in trouble. We came to rescue you. 306 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 1: This young man was a part of Teen Challenge many 307 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:52,479 Speaker 1: years earlier. It's a ministry for young people. Somehow they 308 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: had gotten word in this foreign country that he needed help. 309 00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: They got him out of there and saved his life 310 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 1: today and clean fulfilling his purpose. What am I saying? 311 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 1: When you don't see your way out, help from Heaven 312 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: is coming. God knows how to speak to the right people. 313 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 1: He knows how to keep you hidden from the enemy, 314 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: how to rescue you from trouble, turn your sickness around 315 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 1: open doors that you couldn't open. Maybe you're in a 316 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 1: situation like this mother. You prayed, you stood in faith, 317 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: but hasn't worked out. You tended to think You're stuck. 318 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: You'll always be lonely, have family issues, can't get out 319 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 1: of that financial strain. I've got good news. The Calvary 320 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 1: is coming back up, is on the way. Reinforcement is 321 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 1: already en route. Things you can't explain. Favor you didn't 322 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: deserve healing that confounds the experts, breakthroughs when it looked permanent, 323 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: the right people suddenly finding you. Wasn't a lucky break, 324 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: wasn't a coincidence that would help from heaven. That was 325 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 1: the most tie, rescuing, protecting, bringing you out of what 326 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 1: should have stopped you. Luke. Chapter one, There was a 327 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 1: man named Zacharian. His wife Elizabeth, had been bearing for 328 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 1: her whole life, not able to have a child, and 329 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: now they were both way too old to have children. 330 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 1: For many years, they had prayed and believed to have 331 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 1: a baby, but didn't work out the way they thought. 332 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: They'd accepted it wasn't meant to be. Well. An angel 333 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 1: appeared to Zachariah and said, God has heard your prayer. 334 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 1: Your wife Elizabeth will have a son. You are to 335 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: name him John. They had given up on having a baby, 336 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: but notice God heard their prayers. All those prayers. You prayed, 337 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 1: but nothing happened. You think it's too late, that ship 338 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,679 Speaker 1: has already sailed. You don't know what God is up to. 339 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 1: Sometimes God will wait on purpose where the odds will 340 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: be against us in a greater way, so when he 341 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: does it, everyone will know it's his power, it's his 342 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: favor on your line. Zachariah said to the angel, I 343 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,479 Speaker 1: don't see how this can happen. I am an old man, 344 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: and my wife is well along in years. Notice he 345 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: didn't call his wife an old lady. He's a smart man. 346 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: Our wives are never old, they're well along in years. 347 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 1: Zachariah doubted, that's not possible. That defies logic. He was 348 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,239 Speaker 1: telling the angel all the reasons it wouldn't happen. The 349 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: angel said Zachariah, I am Gabriel. I stand in the 350 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 1: very presence of God. What he has spoken will come 351 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 1: to pass. Zachariah was looking at it in the natural. 352 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 1: Gabriel said, I've come from heaven. I have help that 353 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 1: you haven't seen. The Most High God has given me 354 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:59,919 Speaker 1: his authority. We all face situations like Zachariah. The seamen 355 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 1: possible it's too late to accomplish a dream. The problem 356 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 1: too big, I'll never meet the right person, never have 357 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: a baby. We look at it logically, how can it happen? 358 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 1: There's no way, But imagine Gabriel standing before you, this powerful, 359 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:21,199 Speaker 1: majestic angel. He says, wait a minute, I stand in 360 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 1: the presence of Almighty God. I carry the authority of 361 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 1: the Most High to release Heaven's health, to bring about 362 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: what he is purpose. All of Heaven is backing up 363 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 1: what God put in your heart. And you may be correct, 364 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: it can't happen in the natural, but supernatural forces at work. 365 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 1: Help from Heaven is coming to do what you can't do. Now, 366 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: don't talk yourself out of it, Gabriel told Zachariah. Since 367 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,880 Speaker 1: you doubt it, since you're gonna go around speaking against 368 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 1: what God has purpose, I'm gonna shut your mouth and 369 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,479 Speaker 1: you're not gonna be able to talk for nine months. 370 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 1: He couldn't. That's how powerful our words are. You go 371 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: around saying, I never get well, I can't break the addiction. 372 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 1: We'll always struggle. You are stopping help from Heaven. You 373 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: are blocking the blessing. Do yourself a favor. Zip it up. 374 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:20,640 Speaker 1: If you can't be positive, be quiet, if you can't 375 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 1: speak victory then don't say anything at all. Nine months later, 376 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: when the baby was born, Zachariah could talk again. Gabriel 377 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 1: appeared to another woman around that same time, a teenage 378 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: girl named Mary. He said, Mary, you found favor with God. 379 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 1: You will conceive without knowing a man, give birth to 380 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,640 Speaker 1: a son. You were to name him Jesus. Mary answered back, 381 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 1: how can this be without knowing a man? Gabriel said, 382 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 1: the spirit of God will come on you and cause 383 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 1: you to conceive. He was saying, don't worry, Mary, help 384 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 1: from Heaven is coming now. She could have done, like Zachariah, 385 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: doubt it. I don't think so, that's impossible. But Mary 386 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 1: simply said, be it under me, even as you have said. 387 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: She said, in effect, let it happen. I'm a believer, 388 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:14,680 Speaker 1: not a doubter. God puts promises in all of our 389 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:18,120 Speaker 1: hearts that don't seem possible. That you're gonna get well, 390 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,159 Speaker 1: that your children will be mighty in the land, that 391 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:25,120 Speaker 1: you will lend and not borrow. The question is, are 392 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:28,159 Speaker 1: you gonna be like Zachariah or are you gonna be 393 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 1: like Mary? Are you gonna doubt and I don't think so? 394 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,359 Speaker 1: Or are you gonna say like Mary, God, let it happen. 395 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,639 Speaker 1: Send Heaven down, fight my battle, show yourself strong in 396 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:44,679 Speaker 1: my life. Friends, You're not fighting alone. All of Heaven 397 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:48,119 Speaker 1: is backing you up. It may look like that situation 398 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 1: will never turn around. Nothing's improving. Can I remind you again? 399 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:56,360 Speaker 1: The Calvary is coming. I can hear trumpets, I can 400 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:59,639 Speaker 1: see the dust in the distance. Help from Heaven is 401 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 1: on the word way. God has heard your prayers. He 402 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,679 Speaker 1: sees you standing in faith, doing the right thing, and 403 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:11,160 Speaker 1: angels are on assignment right now. Dispatch with your healing, 404 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: your freedom, your spouse. Miracles have been set into motion. 405 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: Now you do your part. Keep thanking God that he's working. 406 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 1: And I believe and declare Heaven is about to come 407 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:29,919 Speaker 1: down supernatural strength, healing, provision, the fullness of your destiny 408 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: in Jesus's name, and if you receive it, can you 409 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 1: say amen? I'd like to give you an opportunity to 410 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 1: make Jesus the lord of your life. What'd you pray 411 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:44,880 Speaker 1: with me? Just say, Lord, Jesus, I repent of my sins. 412 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 1: Come into my heart. I make you my Lord and savior. 413 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 1: If you prayed that simple prayer, we believe you got 414 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,160 Speaker 1: born again, and we'd love to send you some free 415 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: information on your new walk with the Lord.
