Selene in listen to this message. 10 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 2: I believe it's. 11 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 1: Going to speak to you, and you're going to encounter 12 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 1: a God who loves you and cares about you this 13 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: very moment. I want to preach to you today about 14 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: how to break loose from fear, how to break loose 15 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: from specifically, and. 16 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 2: It applies to all fear. But I feel like that God. 17 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 1: Wants his people to be a fearless people, a courageous people, 18 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: people who walk in faith, not in fear. And I 19 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:18,039 Speaker 1: want to talk about overcoming and breaking free from the 20 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 1: fear of failure. Something that we all fear and that 21 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: we all face at some point in our lives, is 22 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: the fear of failure whenever we endeavor to do new things, 23 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: the fear of failure will raise its ugly head. The 24 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: Bible said, fear is a spirit, especially when God is 25 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: leading you into a new thing. You know he said 26 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: in Isaiah, Behold I do a new thing. Shall you 27 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: not perceive it? Or will you let fear keep you 28 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 1: out of the new thing that God wants to do 29 00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: in your life. I believe the enemy wants us to settle. 30 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: I believe the enemy wants us to get complacent. I 31 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: believe the enemy wants us to stop dreaming, stop having vision, 32 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 1: stop acting like that. The God that we serve can 33 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: do anything, and can open any door and can make 34 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: anything happen that he puts in your heart to do. 35 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: We need to be a courageous faith feel dreaming full 36 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 1: of victory?

Anytime 41 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: you fall in love and get in a new relationship, 42 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: the spirit of fear will tell you be careful. 43 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 2: Be careful. 44 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 1: The spirit of fear will tell you when you create 45 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: a new product. If you have a company, you spend 46 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: a lot of money just on faith investing, it's probably 47 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 1: not gonna make it. 48 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 2: It's probably gonna fail. 49 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: Anytime you invest money in a property or something the 50 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 1: spirit of the fear of failure, we risk failure. When 51 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: corporations launch new cars, they spend millions and millions of 52 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: dollars on cars. They don't know if anybody's gonna buy 53 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: them or not. New technology, new fashion. Every two or 54 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: three times a year, the fashion world comes out with 55 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: new clothes. And if I were them and I see 56 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: some of those fashion shows they wear things, I'd be 57 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: very afraid that nobody's gonna wear it. I'm going to Target, amen, 58 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: I don't need that. Well, I shouldn't say Target because 59 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: we don't like them, do we? 60 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 2: Or do we like them? Some of you gone back 61 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 2: to bud Light.

Can we go to Disney? 64 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: I would like to go to Disney, but maybe we shouldn't. 65 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 2: I don't know. That was not my sermon. 66 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: But they take huge million dollar risks on things the 67 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: world does. But faith people sit around on their blessed assurance, 68 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: afraid afraid to try something new, afraid to risk, afraid 69 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 1: to fail. Change requires faith. We need to stay fresh, 70 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: we need to stay faith filled. There lived a man 71 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 1: who never risk, He never laughed, he never tried. But 72 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 1: then one day he passed away and his insurance was denied. 73 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 1: They said, since the guy never really lived, then he 74 00:04:58,680 --> 00:04:59,799 Speaker 1: really never died. 75 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 2: What a big zero amen of all. 76 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: The things that we will have God lead us to do, 77 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: sometimes we will experience a spirit of the fear of failure. 78 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: It'll stop you from becoming what God meant you to be. 79 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: You'll live a life of regret, a life of could have, 80 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: should have, wish I would have. It's the story of 81 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 1: a guy who came over to America who couldn't speak English. 82 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: He was terrified of failure, and he went and got 83 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 1: him an English tutor, and he said, I want you 84 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: to teach me.

Verse twenty six 140 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: is the Master's response, you wicked, unprofitable servant.

The richest place in America is not 146 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: the oil field. It's the graveyard. There are books that 147 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: were never written because fear stop people from doing it. 148 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,319 Speaker 1: There are businesses that were never started because fear stopped 149 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: people from doing it. There were dreams that were never realized. 150 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: They're in the grave. They're buried. And God says, when 151 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: I call you, I don't just save you. 152 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 2: And give you an identity. 153 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 1: I give you a purpose, but it will require you 154 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: to shape free from the spirit of the fear of 155 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: failure and try new things. 156 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,079 Speaker 2: Give me a big amen right there. 157 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: We're so afraid of risk and of failure. We don't risk, 158 00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: we don't venture, we don't try, and God, God says, 159 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: you cannot please me.

He's sitting on seventy five acres of nothing, 190 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 1: barren wasteland, and a lot of us do exactly the 191 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: same thing. We play it safe in life, and our 192 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: potential becomes a barren wasteland that could have produced so much. 193 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: Without faith, it is impossible to please God. You cannot 194 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: please him without faith.

Don't camp 233 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: around the fire of failure. Get up and try again. 234 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 1: Don't spend time looking at the past, at what you 235 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: should have done and could have done. If you fall 236 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 1: in and you failed, get up, dust yourself off, and say, 237 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 1: in the name of Jesus, I will not give up. 238 00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: Do you know that two thirds of the battles were 239 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 1: lost in the War of Independence that George Washington led. 240 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 1: He lost two thirds of the battles, but he won 241 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 1: the war.

The strikeout king 249 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: became the home run King because he didn't give up. 250 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 2: Failure is not final. 251 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: No man had ever run the four miles in less 252 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 1: than than had never run the bile under four minutes. 253 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 2: I should say. 254 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: Seventeen year old Roger Banister tried out for Oxford running 255 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 1: and he was denied, and he worked and shoveled snow 256 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: and finally made the Olympic team. He went and he ran, 257 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: and he failed in Helsinki, Finland, and the headline of 258 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 1: the London Daily Mirror described his failure to six and 259 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 1: a half million people who read that newspaper. The headline 260 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: of the front page Banister fails. How would you like 261 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: to wake up to six and a half million people 262 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 1: see in your face and the words of your name failure. 263 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 2: Hello. 264 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: I'm Jensen Franklin, and I want to welcome you to 265 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 1: Real America's Voice. 266 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 2: There's something that's going to happen. 267 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: I believe as you watch this program, lean in, listen 268 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 1: and let's see what God can do in your life. 269 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,440 Speaker 1: Fast forward two years May the six, nineteen fifty four. 270 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 1: Banister concluded that he would not go down as a failure, 271 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 1: and he took off running and he did what they 272 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 1: said was biologically not possible to do.

We've 509 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: invested in life saving projects like the Kingdom Play School, 510 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 1: the bomb shelters that saved lives, fire stations, fire trucks, 511 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 1: and life saving equipment. These projects were a beacon of 512 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 1: light on that dark day a year ago, and we 513 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 1: stand more committed than ever to the nation of Israel 514 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: to restore and rebuild those precious communities for the glory 515 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 1: of God and to fulfill Bible prophecy. Don't ever forget 516 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 1: that we have been called to be light in the darkness, 517 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 1: and that's why we've committed the single largest amount of 518 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 1: funding in the history of our ministry to partner with 519 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 1: our dear friends at the Jewish National Fund to rebuild 520 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: and renew the Eshkol region.

It was the worst massacre the Jewish people 528 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:17,880 Speaker 6: experienced since the Holocaust. The Eshkel region in southern Israel 529 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 6: was attacked directly. This is where Jensen Franklin Media Ministries, 530 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 6: in partnership with the Jewish National Fund, have been working 531 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,840 Speaker 6: the last five years to build fortified schools, bomb shelters, 532 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:32,799 Speaker 6: and other life saving projects. Thankfully, these projects did save 533 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 6: many lives that day, and now we stand at a 534 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 6: pivotal moment, poised to provide a lifeline for the people 535 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,919 Speaker 6: of Eshkel, who continued to be attacked by terrorists every day. 536 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:46,880 Speaker 6: Jensen Franklin Media Ministries recently committed the largest amount of 537 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 6: funding ever towards the initiative from Darkness to Light, representing 538 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 6: our unwavering dedication to not just help rebuild communities in Eshkol, 539 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,240 Speaker 6: but to mend hearts and restore what seemed irrevocably lost. 540 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 6: Comprehensive plan that will be completed in three phases.
