Speaker 2: We'll keep you encouraged and inspired.

15
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 1: I like to start with something funny and I heard

16
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,599
Speaker 1: about this group of school children. They were in the

17
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 1: cafeteria line at their Catholic elementary school. At the start

18
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,480
Speaker 1: of the line, there was a big bowl of apples.

19
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: A nun had written a note that said, take only one.

20
00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 2: God is watching.

21
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 1: At the end of the line, and there was a

22
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 1: big ball of chocolate chip cookies. One of the children

23
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 1: had written a note. It said take all you want.

24
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 1: God is watching. The apples. Say it like you mean it.

25
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 1: This is my Bible. I am what it says I am.

26
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 1: I have what it says I have. I can do

27
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: what it says I can do. Today I will be

28
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:23,199
Speaker 1: taught the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind

29
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 1: is alert, my heart is receptive. I will never be

30
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 1: the same. In Jesus's name, God bless you. I want

31
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: to talk to you today about nothing missing. We all

32
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: go through disappointments and things we didn't see coming, and

33
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 1: it's easy to accept it and.

34
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 2: Think that's the way it's always going to be.

35
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 1: We went through a breakup, we'll always be lonely, had

36
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: a set back in our business. We'll always struggle, came

37
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: down with an illness, We'll always have.

38
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 2: To deal with it.

39
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: But God didn't say we wouldn't go through challenges. We'd

40
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: never experienced loss, But he did promise when he's finish,

41
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: nothing will be missing.

42
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 2: He's a god of restoration.

43
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: You may have lost your health, lost your joy, lost

44
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 1: a position, but that's not how your story ends.

45
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 2: Don't judge your.

46
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 1: Situation too soon. The loss is only temporary.

47
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 2: It's just a season. You're going to get it all back.

48
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,959
Speaker 1: Your health is coming back, your confidence is coming back.

49
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: Your child is coming back. Your strength is coming back.

50
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:32,919
Speaker 1: Nothing will be missing. Someone may have left you, walked

51
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: out of her relationship. You think you'll always be alone.

52
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 1: The right person is going to find you, someone better

53
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:44,080
Speaker 1: than you've imagined. You tried to accomplish your dream. The

54
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: doors didn't open. God's going to open a better door.

55
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 1: He didn't give you the dream and not have a

56
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 1: way to bring.

57
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 2: It to pass.

58
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 1: Maybe you didn't have a good childhood. Nobody was there

59
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 1: to encourage you. You feel short changed.

60
00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 2: Don't worry.

61
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 1: God saw what happened. He's going to make up for

62
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 1: who did you wrong. He's going to pay you back

63
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 1: for what you didn't get. Instead of living discouraged thinking

64
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 1: you've seen your best days.

65
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 2: Turn it around.

66
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 1: Father, Thank you that nothing will be missing in my life.

67
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 2: The joy, the peace, the health, the strength, the family,

68
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 2: the dreams.

69
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:25,519
Speaker 1: Lord, thank you that you are restoring everything that I've lost. See,

70
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: instead of having a poor home mentality, look what I've

71
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: been through, have a nothing missing mentality. I'm going to

72
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: get it all back. This is what happened with job.

73
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: He was a good man, had a good family, successful business.

74
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 2: One thing after another came against him.

75
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 1: Lost his health, lost his business, lost his children.

76
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 2: He was so discouraged.

77
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 1: The scripture says he sat down among the ashes.

78
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 2: He thought, I'll never recover from this. It's all downhill

79
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 2: from here.

80
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: His wife even said, Job, just curse God and die,

81
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: couraging wife. When he was just when he was about

82
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: to give up, a friend came along set in Job

83
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: Chapter five. Job, if you'll look to God, he will

84
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: rescue you. He will save you from death. You will

85
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 1: not be taken before your time. When you look in

86
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: your pastures, nothing will be missing. Here he's just lost

87
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 1: all of his flocks, lost his health, his family, it's

88
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 1: all gone. God showed up and said, Job, stay in faith.

89
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: This loss is temporary. When I get through, nothing will

90
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 1: be missing. I can see Job stand up out of

91
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: the ashes.

92
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 2: Dust his clothes off.

93
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: He looked up to the heavens and said, I know

94
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: my redeemer lives in the midst of all the trouble,

95
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: all the heartache. When he could have been complaining bitter,

96
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 1: he started declaring that God was on the throne, that

97
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 1: what he started.

98
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 2: He would finish.

99
00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,279
Speaker 1: There was a shift in his thinking from this loss

100
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: is permanent, I've seen my best days.

101
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 2: To restoration is coming. Health is coming. Victory is coming.

102
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: I can hear him saying, Father, it doesn't look good.

103
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 1: The odds are against me, but I believe what you

104
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: promised that nothing will be missing in my life. I

105
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: don't have joy now, but thank you that joy is coming.

106
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 1: I don't feel well, but thank you that health is coming.

107
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: My flocks are all gone, but thank you that abundance

108
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 1: is on the way. When you go through setbacks, you

109
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: can complain talk about what you've lost, or you can

110
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 1: get in agreement with God and talk about restoration. Father,

111
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 1: thank you that what was meant for my harm your

112
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 1: turning to my advantage.

113
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 2: You said that no.

114
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 1: Weapon formed against me will ever prosper. Thank you that

115
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: I will recover everything that I've lost. This is what

116
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: God did for Job. He not only restored what he'd lost,

117
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 1: but God gave him twice what he had before. He

118
00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 1: was more blessed after the challenge than he was before.

119
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: God makes the enemy pay for bringing the difficulty. Verse

120
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 1: sixteen says Job went on to live another one hundred

121
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: and forty years after the challenge and saw his children

122
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: and grandchildren. He died an old man who had lived

123
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: a long, good life. He didn't die bitter, lonely, discouraged.

124
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: Just like God promised, nothing was missing. He had his health,

125
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 1: his family, his business, peace, abundance.

126
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 2: He didn't look like what he had been through.

127
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: If you would have told him in the middle of

128
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,679
Speaker 1: the difficulty, when he had boils all over his body,

129
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 1: sitting in the ashes, that one day he was going

130
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: to be happy, healthy, living an abundant.

131
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 2: Life, he would have thought, how could that be possible.

132
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:54,719
Speaker 2: That's the way our God is.

133
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 1: Don't judge the rest of your life by what's come

134
00:06:58,320 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 1: against you now.

135
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,359
Speaker 2: God is saying to you what he said to Job.

136
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 2: Nothing is going to be missing.

137
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 1: You may be missing joy, missing children, missing health.

138
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 2: Life has thrown you a curb.

139
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 1: You don't see how it could ever work out. God

140
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 1: hasn't already figured out. Like Job, You're not going to

141
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: look like what you've been through. When God gets finished,

142
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: nobody will be able to tell you went through the cancer,

143
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 1: through the breakup, through the pandemic, through the loss.

144
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 2: You're going to come out stronger.

145
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: Healthier, more fulfilled, the good family, blessed, prosper us.

146
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 2: Get that down in your spirit.

147
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 1: Yes, something may be wrong now, but God is not finished.

148
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 2: Your time is coming.

149
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: The scripture says, God said, an end to job's difficulty.

150
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 2: Just like there was a start to that problem, there was.

151
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: An end to that problem, an end to the sickness,

152
00:07:56,160 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: and endto the addiction, and endto the limitations. When God

153
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 1: says it's time to restore, all the forces of darkness

154
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:09,679
Speaker 1: cannot stop him. Whatever you've lost, whatever looks permanent, whatever

155
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 1: you think has limited your life, There's about to be

156
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: a shift. God is going to suddenly thrust you into healing,

157
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 1: bring the right people, turn the business around, give you joy, peace,

158
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,559
Speaker 1: victory like you've never seen.

159
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 2: I talked to a young lady.

160
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 1: She and her husband had been trying to have a

161
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:33,319
Speaker 1: baby for many years with no success. Her dream from

162
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 1: the time she was a little girl was to have

163
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 1: a child. Her mother had a hard time conceiving, and

164
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 1: her grandmother it ran in the family. After taking all

165
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:46,680
Speaker 1: the fertility treatments, doing everything medically speaking that she could,

166
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 1: the doctor told her that it wasn't going to be possible.

167
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 2: There was nothing more they could do. For months, she

168
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,839
Speaker 2: would get up in the morning weeping so heartbroken.

169
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: One day she was driving to work and she flp

170
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: on our serious exem channel. I was talking about how

171
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 1: God has the final saying how he can do what

172
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 1: medicine can't do. She said, something came alive on the inside.

173
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: She wasn't raised in church. She believed in God, but

174
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 1: she'd never heard anything like this. She started reminding God

175
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 1: what he promised, that children are a gift from the Lord.

176
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: All through the day, instead of getting discouraged, she would

177
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: thank God that her baby was on the way. When

178
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 1: she was tempted to get down, she would go out

179
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: in the car and listen to another message to help

180
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 1: her faith stay built up. Two weeks ago, she called weeping.

181
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 1: This time they weren't tears of sadness. They were tears

182
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 1: of joy. She had just found out she was ten

183
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 1: weeks pregnant, not with one baby, but with twins. The

184
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: doctor said, I don't know how it happened. He had

185
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 1: no explanation. That's what God promised. That nothing is going

186
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: to be missing in your life. Thoughts will tell you

187
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 1: they were going to happen. Man, you'll always be barren,

188
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 1: always be lonely, always be addicted, always struggle. Don't believe

189
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:14,320
Speaker 1: those lies. God sees what you've lost. He knows what

190
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: wasn't fair, what's holding your back? It's not permanent. The

191
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 1: baby is coming, the freedom is coming, the dream is coming,

192
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,959
Speaker 1: the abundance is coming. In the Scripture, David was twenty

193
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 1: nine years old. He was living in the city of

194
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: Ziglag with six hundred of his men. He'd worked in

195
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 1: the palace but had to leave because King Saul was

196
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: jealous and trying to kill him. The prophet Samuel had

197
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 1: anointed him to be the next king of Israel when

198
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 1: he was seventeen. He wasn't in Jerusalem, where it was

199
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: prophesied he would lead the nation. He wasn't in Bethlehem,

200
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: where he was raised. Ziglag was a temporary place. He

201
00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:00,040
Speaker 1: was in between prophecy and destiny. It wasn't where he

202
00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 1: was from, and it wasn't where he was going. It

203
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 1: was a place of waiting. We all encounter some ziglags.

204
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 1: We know what God promised, we know the dream He's

205
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: placed in our heart, but we're not seeing it happen.

206
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,439
Speaker 1: No doors are opening, we're not able to conceive. Our

207
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 1: health isn't improving. When you're in ziglag, in between places.

208
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: It's very important that you keep being faithful, keep doing

209
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:30,239
Speaker 1: the right thing, keep reminding God of his promises.

210
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 2: Ziglag is a test.

211
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,679
Speaker 1: Are you going to get discouraged, think that you're stuck,

212
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:37,479
Speaker 1: give up on your dreams.

213
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 2: No, stay in faith.

214
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 1: Ziglag is only temporary. David and his men had been

215
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: out on a three day journey to fight.

216
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:47,200
Speaker 2: With the Philistines.

217
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: They were returning home when they noticed smoke billowing in

218
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 1: the distance.

219
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,199
Speaker 2: It was in the direction of their city.

220
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 1: I can imagine they started walking faster, wondering what was

221
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 1: going on. When they got their worst fears came true.

222
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 1: The Amalekites, these bandits had come in and raided the city.

223
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 1: They captured all their wives and children. They took all

224
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,599
Speaker 1: their possessions, burned.

225
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:14,319
Speaker 2: Down their homes.

226
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,680
Speaker 1: Here David had been out doing God's will protecting the people,

227
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 1: and his own city was destroyed. His wife and children

228
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 1: had been kidnapped. The scripture says David and his men

229
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:30,960
Speaker 1: wept until they could not weep anymore. Now, David was

230
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: a warrior. He'd gone through great challenges. He had defeated Goliath.

231
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,439
Speaker 1: We stood all kinds of trouble. But this blow knocked

232
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 1: the wind out of him. He didn't see it coming.

233
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 1: On the way to our destiny, there will be some

234
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: zig lags. We're doing the right thing, but the wrong

235
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 1: thing happens. We're being our best, but business goes down,

236
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,559
Speaker 1: we lose a loved one. We're fighting anxiety, or maybe

237
00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: dealing with a child that's off course. David's men were

238
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 1: so upset, so distraught, they talked about stoning David.

239
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 2: Just when he thought it.

240
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:09,319
Speaker 1: Couldn't get any worse, his own men turned on him.

241
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,200
Speaker 2: David was at a very pivotal moment.

242
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 1: He could have gotten bitter blame God given up on

243
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,200
Speaker 1: his dream. This could be the last time we ever

244
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 1: read about David. He could have faded off into the sunset,

245
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 1: missed his destiny. But David made a decision that we

246
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,439
Speaker 1: all have to make when we encounter.

247
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 2: A zig lag.

248
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 1: The scripture says he encouraged himself in the Lord, his God,

249
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: sitting in the ashes, looking at home, still smoldering, men

250
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: all around him, angry, ready to take him out. Instead

251
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 1: of complaining, instead of being depressed, he started reminding himself

252
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:49,960
Speaker 1: that God.

253
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 2: Was still on the throne. God, what you've spoken over

254
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,439
Speaker 2: my life is still going to come to pass.

255
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: I believe that you're a God of restoration, that this

256
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 1: is not how my story ends. David dried his tears.

257
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 1: God up out of the ashes, went alone to pray.

258
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 1: He asked God if he should go after the Amalekites.

259
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 1: God said, yes, go after them, for you will surely

260
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: recover everything that was stolen. God is saying that to you.

261
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: You may have lost some things. Don't sit around in

262
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 1: self pity. It's time to dry your tears and go

263
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:29,600
Speaker 1: after what belongs to you. You will surely recover your health.

264
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 1: You will surely recover your children. You will surely recover

265
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 1: your peace. You will surely recover that dream. God is

266
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: a surely god. He's not hoping it'll work out. He

267
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:46,440
Speaker 1: controls the universe. He's breathing in your direction. Right now,

268
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 1: You and God are a majority. Him being for you

269
00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 1: is more than the world being against you. David set

270
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: out toward the Amalekites. When he arrived, they were having

271
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 1: a big party, dancing, drinking, celebrating the victory. Sometimes the

272
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 1: enemy celebrates too soon. He thinks you're done, you've given up,

273
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 1: you've settled. What he doesn't realize is you know what

274
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:16,440
Speaker 1: God promised that if you pursue, if you believe.

275
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 2: Get your hopes up, you will recover all.

276
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 1: Nothing will be missing when you pursue God starts fighting

277
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 1: for you. Angels go to work. Forces of darkness are broken,

278
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: the wrong people are moved out of the way. You'll

279
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: see favor, healing victory. David and his men attacked the Amalekites.

280
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: They not only defeated them, but they got back everything

281
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: that was stolen.

282
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 2: They got their wives and children back.

283
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: The scripture says nothing was missing small or great son

284
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 1: or daughter, or anything else that had been taken.

285
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 2: David got everything back. Now you may be in ziglag.

286
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 2: You've lost some things. It wasn't fair.

287
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 1: If you'll get your passion back, start believing again.

288
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 2: Like with David, You're going to get it all back.

289
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 2: Nothing is going to be missing.

290
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 1: The healing is coming back, the business, the children, the joy,

291
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 1: it's coming back. God is not going to leave you

292
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 1: at a deficit. He's keeping the records. He knows what

293
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 1: belongs to you. David not only got all of his

294
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 1: possessions back, but his men gathered up all that belonged

295
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: to the Amalekites.

296
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 2: They came out with more than they had before.

297
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 1: What's interesting is three days later, King Saul was killed

298
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: in a battle.

299
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 2: David was made king.

300
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 1: This was thirteen years after Samuel had anointed him. It's

301
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 1: significant that after his greatest challenge, David was only seventy

302
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 1: two hours away from taking the throne. When you're in ziglag,

303
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 1: stay encouraged. You don't know what God is up to.

304
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 1: Not only going to get it all back, but God

305
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 1: is about to promote you. Ziglag is a sign that

306
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,400
Speaker 1: a new level of your destiny is on the way,

307
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 1: that you're about to see what God promised, that you're

308
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 1: going to come out of the interim place, that place

309
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:19,880
Speaker 1: of waiting, into a place of destiny. But we all

310
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 1: have to go through a few ziglags on the way

311
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:26,359
Speaker 1: to our purpose, Difficulties that come out of nowhere, things

312
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 1: we don't understand, loss of a loved one, fighting depression,

313
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 1: people trying to discredit us. You have to remind yourself

314
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:39,120
Speaker 1: that ziglag is only temporary. Voices will whisper You'll never

315
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:42,360
Speaker 1: get out of this, never have that baby, never meet

316
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 1: the right person, Just live among these ashes. The reason

317
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 1: those lives are coming is the enemy doesn't want you

318
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: to rise up and leave ziglag. He doesn't want you

319
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 1: to have a recover all mentality. He wants you to

320
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 1: have a poor o me mentality. You have to say

321
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 1: no thanks. Ziglag is not my home. This is not

322
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 1: how my story ends. I know what God promised. Nothing

323
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 1: will be missing, lords or small. There was a lady

324
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: that was diagnosed with stage four cancer.

325
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:16,160
Speaker 2: Didn't look good.

326
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 1: She had spent most of her childhood in the hospital.

327
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 1: She had a sickle cell gene that had caused her

328
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 1: many problems years later. The thought of having to go

329
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 1: back to the hospital deal with this illness take the.

330
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 2: Treatment was very discouraging.

331
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:36,679
Speaker 1: She sunk into deep depression, didn't want to leave the house, didn't.

332
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 2: Want to get out of bed.

333
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 1: On Sunday, her husband would turn our program on, she

334
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 1: would weep the whole time I was speaking. She said,

335
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 1: it was just like you were talking to me. She

336
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: started believing that God was bigger than the cancer, that

337
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,359
Speaker 1: her life was not over. For two years, as she

338
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 1: took the treatment, had the surgery, she felt a strength

339
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 1: that she had never felt. She's not only cancer free,

340
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: she not only defied the odds, but she doesn't have

341
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:09,880
Speaker 1: the sickle cell gene anymore. She told how she used

342
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 1: to be so quiet, so reserved, but now she's written

343
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: a book. She speaks at different events, telling how God

344
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 1: helped her overcome.

345
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 2: She says.

346
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:22,159
Speaker 1: When people see me, they always comment on how I

347
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 1: don't look like what I've been through. She's happier and

348
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: more fulfilled than she's ever been.

349
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 2: What am I saying?

350
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,639
Speaker 1: Ziglag is not your home, It's a temporary place.

351
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 2: When you're in Ziglag, you have to.

352
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,400
Speaker 1: Remind yourself what God promised that you're going to recover

353
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 1: all that. Nothing is going to be missing. It may

354
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:46,439
Speaker 1: be gone now, but God is not finished. Instead of

355
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,880
Speaker 1: dwelling on what you lost, what didn't work out, those

356
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 1: negative reports, you need to switch over to this nothing

357
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 1: missing mentality. You may not see how it can happen.

358
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 1: God has ways we've never thought of. He's not limited

359
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 1: by what limits us. Like with this lady, He's going

360
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: to do something unusual, uncommon, out of the ordinary, not

361
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 1: just restore, but bring you out better than you were before.

362
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,520
Speaker 1: I believe it's going to happen sooner than you think.

363
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 2: There's about to be a shift, a suddenly out of nowhere.

364
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 2: You're on the verge of.

365
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 1: A breakthrough, a healing, a promotion.

366
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:28,719
Speaker 2: You're going to be able to say, like this lady,

367
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 2: nothing is missing in my life.

368
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,160
Speaker 1: A few years ago, we had a night of hope

369
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,919
Speaker 1: in Las Vegas, and I was able to visit with

370
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 1: a gentleman named Steve Wynn.

371
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 2: He's built many.

372
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 1: Of the large hotels. They're very successful and influential. He's

373
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:48,679
Speaker 1: an avid art collector, has masterpieces from all over the world.

374
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,159
Speaker 1: As he was showing us some of the paintings in

375
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,640
Speaker 1: his home, he told us about a famous Picasso painting

376
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 1: that he purchased in two thousand and one. At that time,

377
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 1: it was valued at sixty million dollars.

378
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:02,719
Speaker 2: It's one of his favorite paintings.

379
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,679
Speaker 1: He had a friend that really loved it as well,

380
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 1: and mister Wynn agreed to sell it to this friend.

381
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,680
Speaker 1: The price was one hundred and thirty nine million dollars.

382
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,359
Speaker 1: The night before the cell, he was showing the painting

383
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,560
Speaker 1: to some friends. He has an eye disease that affects

384
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 1: his peripheral vision. As he was pointing to the painting,

385
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,919
Speaker 1: he didn't realize he was so close. He poked a

386
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,200
Speaker 1: hole in it with his elbow. They could all hear

387
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,160
Speaker 1: the canvas ripping. He turned around and saw a two

388
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:32,640
Speaker 1: inch tear that.

389
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:36,440
Speaker 2: Was his zig lag. The cell was off. The other

390
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:37,399
Speaker 2: man didn't want it.

391
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 1: The painting was now valued at eighty five million dollars.

392
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 2: That one tear.

393
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:46,680
Speaker 1: Resulted in a fifty four million dollar loss. God give

394
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: us problems like that. Mister Wynn found he found what

395
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:55,919
Speaker 1: he called an art surgeon, someone that would sow the

396
00:21:56,080 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 1: individual fibers back together. It took two months and you

397
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:01,160
Speaker 1: couldn't tell the.

398
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 2: Painting had ever been torn.

399
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: Six years later he sold the painting to the same

400
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 1: man for one hundred and fifty five million dollars, sixteen

401
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 1: million more than before the terror. The painting was worth

402
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 1: more after it had been torn. When we've been through disappointments,

403
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 1: bad breaks, sometimes it feels like we've been torn. We

404
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:27,200
Speaker 1: lost our value, made mistakes, should have been more focused.

405
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 1: What I love about God is when he puts you

406
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:34,119
Speaker 1: back together like this painting, you come out more valuable.

407
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 1: He knows how to restore in such a way. Nobody

408
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 1: can tell what you've been through. You're not going to

409
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 1: live with a terror, so to speak. What didn't work

410
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 1: out is not going to affect the rest of your life.

411
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:52,159
Speaker 1: That sickness, the divorce, the loss, the bankruptcy doesn't lessen

412
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 1: your value. Quit believe in those lies that you've been

413
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 1: through too much. Don't expect anything good don't believe in

414
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:03,480
Speaker 1: your dream. You've been torn, someone did you wrong, You've

415
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:04,280
Speaker 1: had setbacks.

416
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,160
Speaker 2: Just stay in ziglag. That is not your destiny.

417
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 1: When God gets finished restoring, nothing will be missing. The

418
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 1: beauty of our God is even when we make mistakes.

419
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 1: We bring the trouble on ourselves. God doesn't say, too bad,

420
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 1: I would restore if you'd perform better. I would help

421
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 1: you if you were more committed.

422
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,440
Speaker 2: God is full of mercy.

423
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 1: When we get off course, the moment we turn back

424
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 1: to him, he comes running toward us, not in judgment,

425
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 1: but in mercy. Remember when the prodigal son left home,

426
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 1: wasted all of his money partying, making poor decisions. He

427
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,160
Speaker 1: ended up working in a hog pen feeding the hogs.

428
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,880
Speaker 1: He got so desperate he had to eat the hog

429
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 1: food to survive.

430
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 2: It was his own fault.

431
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 1: He should have listened to his father made better decisions.

432
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 1: Now he was dirty, smelly, hair, not combed. He decided

433
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 1: to go back home. The father saw him a long

434
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: way off and came running toward him. He didn't berat

435
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 1: his son, He didn't tell him you should have known better.

436
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 1: The father never brought up his past. One of the

437
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,400
Speaker 1: first things he said was go get the best.

438
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 2: Robe and put it on my son, not any robe.

439
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 1: Bring the best robe, Get some new shoes for him

440
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 1: to wear.

441
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 2: Put the family ring on his finger.

442
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 1: Like that painting. This young man was torn. He thought

443
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 1: his value had gone down. He said, Dad, I don't

444
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,920
Speaker 1: deserve to be your son. Just let me live out

445
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: in the barn work as one of your staff. But

446
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 1: the father who represents God said, in effect that terror

447
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,640
Speaker 1: is nothing for me. When I restore you, nobody will

448
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 1: know what you've been through. A few hours later, after

449
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,520
Speaker 1: the young man had showered, put on the best robe,

450
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 1: new shoes, no one would have ever known that he

451
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 1: had been torn. This parable is showing us that when

452
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 1: God restores, you're not going to come out almost as good,

453
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 1: grateful that at least you survived. You're going to come

454
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 1: out with nothing missing, fully restored, full of joy, gifts,

455
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 1: coming out healthy, blessed, prosper us.

456
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 2: Get rid of those lies. Say you always be a disadvantage.

457
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,440
Speaker 2: Look at the mistakes you've made.

458
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: That's the enemy trying to keep you from putting on

459
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 1: the best road. He'd love for you to go through

460
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 1: life feeling condemned, unworthy. Don't take that bait. There's a

461
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,680
Speaker 1: best road waiting for you. There's a ring of authority

462
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:36,160
Speaker 1: with your.

463
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:36,679
Speaker 2: Name on it.

464
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 1: Or maybe someone else puts you at a disadvantage. They

465
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 1: caused you to tear. It wasn't even your fault. They

466
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:46,680
Speaker 1: didn't lessen your value. You know why God is the

467
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:50,640
Speaker 1: master surgeon. He knows how to restore where no one

468
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:54,440
Speaker 1: can tell. There's a famous poem that talks about a

469
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 1: bird with a broken wing, how even though it's created

470
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: to fly and created to sword, because its wing is injured,

471
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 1: it will never get back off the ground. It's very sad,

472
00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,720
Speaker 1: depressing thought. Someone took the poem and put a new

473
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 1: ending on it. They talked about how when God takes

474
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 1: the bird, he begins to heal, restore, breed new.

475
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 2: Life into it.

476
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 1: It ends by saying the bird with a broken wing

477
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:20,640
Speaker 1: will fly.

478
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:21,639
Speaker 2: Twice as high.

479
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:26,360
Speaker 1: Again, what's come against you has not limited your future.

480
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 2: You're not tainted.

481
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,160
Speaker 1: When God restores, you're going to fly twice as high.

482
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,639
Speaker 1: You're going to go further. The enemy minute for harm,

483
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: but God is turning it to your advantage. Now get

484
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:41,400
Speaker 1: rid of a defeated mindset and switch over to this

485
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 1: nothing missing mentality. God sees everything you've lost. He hasn't

486
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:47,920
Speaker 1: forgotten about you.

487
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:50,639
Speaker 2: You may be in ziglag. Things aren't fair.

488
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,600
Speaker 1: God is saying to you what he said to David.

489
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,480
Speaker 1: You will surely recover everything that was stolen.

490
00:26:58,000 --> 00:26:59,640
Speaker 2: Ziglag is not permanent.

491
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 1: That's a sign you're about to see restoration that God's

492
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:05,359
Speaker 1: about to show out in your life.

493
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 2: I believe and declare.

494
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:12,200
Speaker 1: Nothing is going to be missing for you, large or small.

495
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 2: Your health is coming back, your.

496
00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 1: Family is coming back, dreams are coming back, confidence, breakthroughs, abundance,

497
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 1: the fullness of your destiny in Jesus' name, if you

498
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:28,919
Speaker 1: receive it, can you say am in Today? I'd like

499
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 1: to give you an opportunity to make Jesus the Lord

500
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 1: of your life.

501
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 2: Would you pray with me? Just say, Lord, Jesus, I

502
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 2: repent of my sins. Come into my heart. I make

503
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:43,360
Speaker 2: you my Lord and savior.

504
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,240
Speaker 1: If you prayed that simple prayer, we believe you got

505
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:47,919
Speaker 1: born again.

506
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:49,080

Speaker 3: Now.

Speaker 1: I hope you'll get into a good Bible based church.

512
00:27:58,320 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 1: Keep God first place.

513
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 3: When God created the world, he did it specifically with

514
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:09,400
Speaker 3: you in mind. He used his words. He spoke everything

515
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:19,159
Speaker 3: into existence, light, oceans and dry land, plants, sun and stars, animals,

516
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 3: man and woman. Your words have that same creative power.

517
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:27,639
Speaker 1: If you want to know what you're going to be

518
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,679
Speaker 1: like five years from now, listen to what you're saying

519
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 1: about yourself. You are prophesying your future, and too often

520
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,439
Speaker 1: we don't realize we're defeating.

521
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 2: Ourselves with our words.

522
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 1: I'll never get healthy, I'm not attractive, this dreams impossible.

523
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: Instead of limiting your future, why don't you start blessing

524
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 1: your future. If you'll change your words, you can change

525
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 1: your world. I have a new book called Speak the Blessing.

528
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 1: Your fani, your health, your finances, and your future. When

529
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 1: you get your words aligned with what God says, you'll

530
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:08,920
