She'd go out on her front 38 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 5: porch every morning and thank the Lord for another day. 39 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 5: Her neighbor didn't believe in God. He'd shout back, there's 40 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 5: no such thing as the Lord. One day he overheard 41 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 5: her asking God to give her groceries for the week. 42 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 5: He snuck over the next morning put some groceries on 43 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 5: her porch. She came out and said, thank you, Lord, 44 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 5: you did it again. He laughed and laughed and said, 45 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 5: God didn't give you those groceries. I put them there. 46 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 5: She said, Lord, thank you, you not only brought me 47 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 5: the groceries, but you made the devil pay for them. 48 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 5: All right, say it like you mean it. This is 49 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 5: my Bible. I am what it says I am. I 50 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 5: have what it says I have. I can do what 51 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 5: it says I can do. Today I will be talked 52 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 5: the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind is alert, 53 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 5: my heart is recepted. I will never be the same. 54 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:50,359 Speaker 5: In Jesus' name, God, bless you. I want to talk 55 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 5: to you today about blessed out of season. There are 56 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 5: times when you can feel you're on the verge of 57 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 5: a new level. Things are falling into place. You can 58 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 5: sense it's your season. God's about to do something new, 59 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 5: and it's important to live with that expectancy and believe 60 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 5: for good things. But what about the times when it's 61 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 5: just the opposite. Things aren't going our way. Business is slow, 62 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 5: the medical report's not good. It's been years and we 63 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 5: still haven't met the right person. All the circumstances say 64 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 5: we're stuck. Just endure it. It's not our season. The 65 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 5: good news is God specializes in doing things out of season. 66 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 5: He doesn't wait for the conditions to be perfect, for 67 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 5: the circumstances to line up for you to have the training, 68 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 5: for the right people to believe in you. He does 69 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 5: things unexpectedly, things that you didn't see coming. You didn't 70 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 5: have the experience, but suddenly you were promoted. The report 71 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 5: said you wouldn't get well, but suddenly your health turned around. 72 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 5: You were told you couldn't have children, but against all odds, 73 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 5: you conceived and now you have that baby. What happened. 74 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 5: God blessed you out of season. And we've been taught 75 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 5: to be faithful in the slow periods, to endure when 76 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 5: things aren't going our way, and that's important. We have 77 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 5: to pass the test. But sometimes we're being faithful without 78 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 5: releasing our faith. We're enduring without expecting. We're waiting for 79 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 5: the conditions to change, and then we'll get our hopes up. 80 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 5: When I get through this slow season, when my child 81 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 5: starts making better decisions, when I see more progress in 82 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 5: my season, then I'll believe again. You don't have to 83 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 5: wait until it's your season. God does things out of season, 84 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 5: not on a normal timetable, not in a traditional way. 85 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 5: He'll do things that don't make sense. There's no explanation, 86 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,799 Speaker 5: it's just the goodness of God. When you look around, 87 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:02,160 Speaker 5: every circumstance may say you're not in season. There's no 88 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 5: sign of things getting better, no sign of your health improving, 89 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 5: no sign of you being promoted. Maybe it's just the opposite. 90 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 5: Things are going down. Thoughts will tell you be discouraged. 91 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 5: It's never going to change. The conditions are not favorable. 92 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 5: Don't believe those lies. God is about to bless you 93 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 5: out of season. He's about to do something you didn't 94 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 5: see coming. He's going to surprise you with his favor. 95 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 5: It's going to be bigger than you thought, better than 96 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:35,799 Speaker 5: you imagine, more rewarding than you've dreamed. Now, don't complain 97 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 5: because you're out of season. You're in prime position for 98 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 5: God to show out in your life. In the scripture, 99 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 5: Sarah gave birth to a son at ninety years of age. 100 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 5: She'd already gone through the change of life, already passed 101 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 5: the child bearing years. Her womb was closed up. No 102 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 5: way to have a baby, it's too late, but God 103 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 5: does things out of season. Was a teenager taking care 104 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 5: of his father's sheep. He had no formal training, no 105 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 5: military experience. He was a shepherd, Yet the prophet Samuel 106 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 5: showed up at his house and anointed him the next 107 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 5: king of Israel. He was promoted out of season when 108 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 5: he didn't have the qualifications, when he didn't see it coming. 109 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 5: It was boring out in the shepherd's fields. He was lonely. 110 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 5: You don't know what God is up to. You don't 111 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 5: know when he's about to show up and do something unusual. 112 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 5: You may feel overlooked. Nobody's giving you credit. You're not 113 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 5: in season. Don't worry. God knows how to promote you 114 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 5: out of season. The Israelites were in the desert, headed 115 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 5: toward the Promised Land, and they complained to Moses that 116 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 5: they didn't have any meat to eat. They were tired 117 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 5: of eating the same manna every day. God told Moses 118 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 5: he was going to give them meat, not just for 119 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 5: a day, but for a whole month. Moses said, God, 120 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 5: what do you mean if we butchered all of our 121 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 5: flocks and all of our herds, we wouldn't have enough 122 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 5: meat for these two million people. Moses was looking at 123 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 5: it from a practical point of view, thinking, we're in 124 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 5: the desert, we're not in season. This is no time 125 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:22,679 Speaker 5: to find any meat. God said Moses, is there any 126 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 5: limit to my power? He was saying, do you think 127 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 5: you not being in season can stop me from doing 128 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 5: what I want to do? Do you think because the 129 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 5: conditions are not favorable, somehow that can limit my power? 130 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 5: Don't you know I created the universe, I spoke worlds 131 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 5: into existence, I flung stars into space. That nothing is 132 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 5: too difficult for me. The next morning, God shifted the 133 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 5: winds and caused a huge flock of quall to come 134 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 5: into their camp. There were so many quaill they were 135 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 5: flying three feet off. The scripture says no one gathered 136 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 5: less than fifty bushels of quail. What's interesting is quall 137 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 5: don't usually fly that far away from the sea way 138 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 5: out into the desert. But God controls the winds, He 139 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 5: controls the quall. You may not see how your situation 140 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 5: could work out. You're not in season, none of the 141 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 5: conditions look favorable. But God knows how to shift the winds. 142 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 5: He knows how to bring the quail the right people, 143 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 5: good breaks, healing, restoration. He's not limited because you're out 144 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 5: of season. I met a young lady that had gone 145 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 5: through seven miscarriages. The doctors told her that there was 146 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 5: something wrong with her womb and she would never be 147 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 5: able to carry a baby and she should stop trying. 148 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 5: She had big tears running down her cheeks, so heartbroken. 149 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 5: She was out of season. Didn't look good. The odds 150 00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 5: were against her. But people don't have the final say 151 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 5: God does. Last year, she conceived and carried the baby 152 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 5: full term. Her doctor said, in twenty five years of 153 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 5: practicing medicine, he had never seen that happen. The odds 154 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 5: may be against you. Every voice says you'll never have 155 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 5: the baby, Never get well, never break the addiction. God 156 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 5: is about to show up out of season and make 157 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 5: things happen that looked impossible. There is no limit to 158 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 5: his power when you believe all things are possible. John 159 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 5: Chapter five. There was a crippled man that had been 160 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:41,079 Speaker 5: laying by the pool of Bethesda for thirty eight years. 161 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 5: There were five porches filled with sick people surrounding this pool. 162 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 5: Verse four says an angel would go down to the 163 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 5: pool at a certain season and stirred the waters. The 164 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 5: first ones to get in would be healed. The people 165 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 5: knew when the season for the a angel to come was. 166 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 5: They'd seen that happen again and again. They would be 167 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 5: especially on guard. They knew that was their window of 168 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 5: opportunity to be healed, any moment the angel could show up. 169 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 5: One day, Jesus came to the pool and said to 170 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 5: the man, do you want to get well? The problem was, 171 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 5: it wasn't the right season. This wasn't the normal time 172 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 5: when the waters would be stirred. I can imagine the 173 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,839 Speaker 5: man was a little confused. He said, Sir, when the 174 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 5: angel comes, I have no one to help me get 175 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 5: in the pool. He knew he couldn't get healed. Then 176 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 5: he was out of season. Jesus said to him, get up, 177 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 5: pick up your bed, and walk and instantly the man 178 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 5: was healed. He stood up and walked out of there. 179 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 5: God was showing us how he can do things out 180 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 5: of season. Doesn't have to be the right time. You 181 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,959 Speaker 5: may not see any sign of it. All the circumstances 182 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 5: say you're stuck. Just to endure it's not your season. No, 183 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 5: get ready for an out of season blessing for an 184 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 5: I didn't see it come in healing for a that 185 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 5: doesn't make sense promotion. God is going to show up 186 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 5: at what you think is the wrong time. It looks 187 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 5: like the angel is months and months away. But God 188 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 5: doesn't have to wait for the angel, for the treatment, 189 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 5: for the training, for the boss to like you, for 190 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 5: the medical report to improve, for the economy to get better. 191 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 5: God controls the universe. He's not limited by seasons. Isaiah said. 192 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 5: God will make rivers in the desert, streams in the 193 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:47,200 Speaker 5: barren places. God can cause you to blossom out of season. 194 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 5: When the circumstances say it's not going to happen. It's 195 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 5: not the right time. You have too many disadvantages. God 196 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 5: is not waiting for the conditions to be favorable. He's 197 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 5: going to make in the desert. He's going to bless 198 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 5: you out of season. A while back, I had gone 199 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 5: through a very difficult week. It was one of those 200 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 5: times when everything that could go wrong dead. We had 201 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 5: difficulty over here and people coming against us over there. 202 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 5: Somebody had filed a lawsuit, had a major piece of 203 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 5: equipment break that we had to replace. It was one 204 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 5: headache after another, and just when I thought it couldn't 205 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 5: get any worse, I came home one afternoon and Victoria 206 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 5: was sitting in the den holding the dog crying. She 207 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 5: had taken him to the doctor. Long story short, we 208 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 5: had to put the dog to sleep. Now, of all 209 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 5: times that dog could have died, it was that week. 210 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 5: When it rains it pours. If I ever felt like 211 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 5: a time where I was definitely not in season, it 212 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 5: was then. I felt like I was in a country 213 00:12:55,960 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 5: western song. Everything went wrong. Then my dog died. But 214 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 5: we all faced these seasons of difficulties and times where 215 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 5: it's one thing after another coming against us. The last 216 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 5: thing on my mind was being blessed, seeing favor and increase. 217 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:17,439 Speaker 5: I was praying that God would sustain us, fight our battles, 218 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 5: help us to make it through. But a couple of 219 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:24,199 Speaker 5: days later, in the middle of that difficulty, I received 220 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 5: a call from the vice president of one of the largest, 221 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 5: most influential media companies in the world. We have never met, 222 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 5: never had any contact, but he watches us on television. 223 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 5: He presented us the largest media opportunity that we had 224 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 5: ever received. We agreed to pursue it. He said, Okay, 225 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 5: I'll have my eight hundred employees start working for you 226 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 5: for these next few months when I felt the least favored, 227 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,960 Speaker 5: when I had the most opposition, God showed up and 228 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 5: blessed me out of season. Just because you don't feel 229 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 5: favored doesn't mean that you're not favored. Sometimes God will 230 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 5: even wait till you're out of season then do something 231 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 5: amazing just to remind you that he's in control, and 232 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 5: he being for you is more than the world being 233 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 5: against you. Do you feel out of season, you're stuck 234 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 5: in some area, stay encouraged. God has you in the 235 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 5: palm of his hand. He sees what's happening. He hasn't 236 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 5: brought you this far to leave you. He's about to 237 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 5: do something out of the ordinary, something greater than what 238 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 5: you've imagined. Where you're going to say, like I did, Wow, God, 239 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 5: I didn't see that coming. When Jesus healed the crippled man, 240 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 5: it was not only the wrong season when the angel 241 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 5: normally didn't come, but it was the Sabbath. The religious 242 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 5: leaders complained that he healed the man on the wrong day. 243 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 5: You weren't supposed to work on the Sabbath. But I 244 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 5: found God likes to break the rules. He likes to 245 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 5: do things out of the ordinary, things that don't make 246 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 5: sense where there is no logical explanation. That's what happened 247 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 5: to my mom. She was diagnosed with terminal liver cancer 248 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 5: in nineteen eighty one and given a few weeks to live. 249 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 5: There was no treatment the doctors could give her. Unfortunately, 250 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 5: they sent her home and told her to just prepare 251 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 5: for the worst. She was definitely out of season. Of course, 252 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 5: she wanted to live, but it looked like the angel 253 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 5: was way way off. It looked like the troubling of 254 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 5: the waters would be a long long time. But the 255 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 5: God who controls your destiny, the God who greed life 256 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 5: into you, the God who knew you before you were 257 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 5: formed in your mother's wound. Against all odds, he showed 258 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 5: up out of season when it looked impossible. Medically speaking, 259 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 5: she didn't have a chance. What happened. God broke the rules. 260 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 5: He did what medicine couldn't do. And today, thirty seven 261 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 5: years later, my mom is still alive, still going strong. 262 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 5: Where are the people that will say, God, I believe 263 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 5: you can bless me out of season. The report doesn't 264 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 5: look good, but I know you can heal me. I've 265 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 5: had the addiction for years, but I know you can 266 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 5: free me. My family's off course, but I know as 267 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 5: for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. 268 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 5: When you're not just enduring a slow season, but you're 269 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 5: releasing your faith expecting God's goodness, He'll make things happen 270 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 5: that you couldn't make happening in some area of life. 271 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 5: We're all out of season. Something's slow, something's not changing. 272 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 5: It's easy to accept it and think that's the way 273 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 5: it's always going to be. You have to stir your 274 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 5: faith up. Any moment God could turn it around. It 275 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 5: could happen this month. It could happen this week, It 276 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 5: could happen today. God is not waiting for the conditions 277 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 5: to be more favorable. It's not waiting for somebody to 278 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 5: give you a break, for the medical report to improve. 279 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 5: He's not even waiting for you to have more faith. 280 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 5: You have the faith you need right now. If you'll 281 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 5: start releasing it, expecting his goodness, thanking him for his favor, 282 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 5: then God will show up out of season. He'll do 283 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 5: things unexpectedly, things that you didn't see coming. I talked 284 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 5: to a lady that had struggled with a drug addiction 285 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:33,399 Speaker 5: for over twenty five years. She'd gone to rehab and 286 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:38,120 Speaker 5: therapy again and again, with no success. Like the man 287 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 5: by the pool that had been there thirty eight years, 288 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 5: she thought she would never be well. She had lost 289 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 5: her family, lost her job, lost her home. She was 290 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 5: definitely out of season. But God is working behind the scenes. 291 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 5: Being addicted is not your destiny. Constantly struggling in your hell, 292 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 5: your finances, your relationships, that is not how your story 293 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 5: is going to end. It's not permanent. It's temporary. Someone 294 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 5: gave her a copy of my book, The Power of 295 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,119 Speaker 5: I Am, and it talks about how we have to 296 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 5: speak words of faith and make declarations of victory over 297 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 5: our lives. For years, she had done just the opposite. 298 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,880 Speaker 5: She talked about how she had never been free and 299 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,360 Speaker 5: how she had never breaked the addiction. When you speak 300 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 5: negative words over your life, they get down into your 301 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 5: spirit and you start to live negative. Every day, she 302 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 5: started declaring, I am free, I am whole. This addiction 303 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 5: does not control me. She changed her attitude from a 304 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 5: victim mentality to a victoria mentality last year, against all odds, 305 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:56,200 Speaker 5: after twenty five years, she suddenly broke that addiction. Today 306 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 5: she has a new job, she got her family back. 307 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 5: She just started attending a local church. One thing that 308 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 5: always concerned her was that her mother would die without 309 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 5: seeing her free. She knew she was breaking her mother's heart. 310 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 5: She told me, with tears in her eyes, how her 311 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:17,439 Speaker 5: mother calls all the time and tells her how proud 312 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 5: she is of her. Like this, lady, you may not 313 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 5: see how your situation could change. It's been that way 314 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:28,159 Speaker 5: a long time. But God has not forgotten about you. 315 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 5: Something is about to happen out of season. You can't 316 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 5: see it coming. You feel like you're stuck. But suddenly 317 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 5: you're going to break the addiction. Suddenly you're going to 318 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 5: meet the right person. Suddenly God's going to catapult you 319 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:47,160 Speaker 5: to the next level. Jesus asked the crippled man if 320 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 5: he wanted to be well. In one sense, he was saying, 321 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 5: I need your permission to help you. If you're not 322 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 5: in agreement with me, I can't turn this around. Will 323 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:02,919 Speaker 5: you give God permission to free you, permission to heal you, 324 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 5: permission to bless you. You have to get in agreement 325 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 5: with God. As long as you're thinking of all the 326 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 5: reasons why it's not going to happen, talking about how 327 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 5: impossible it is, then you'll get stuck where you are. 328 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 5: You may not see how it can work out. That's 329 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:23,160 Speaker 5: because you're looking at it in the natural. We serve 330 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 5: a supernatural God. He can bring quell in from the sea. 331 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,159 Speaker 5: He can heal you without the treatment. He can promote 332 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 5: you like David, without the qualifications. The conditions may not 333 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 5: look favorable, may not look like it'll ever change. This 334 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 5: is what faith is all about. Turn it around. Lord. 335 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 5: I don't see away, but I know you're still on 336 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 5: the throne. I know you're bigger than what i'm facing. 337 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 5: You've done it for me in the past. Lord, I 338 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 5: want to thank you. You'll do it for me again 339 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:57,160 Speaker 5: in the future. Jesus heal the man not only when 340 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 5: he was out of season, but he didn't do it 341 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 5: the normal way, the way they were expecting. He didn't 342 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,120 Speaker 5: have him go look for the stirring of the waters. 343 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 5: He didn't have him dip in the pool. He did 344 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:12,199 Speaker 5: it an unusual way. God is not only going to 345 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 5: do things for you out of season, not at the 346 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 5: normal time. He's going to do them a non traditional way. 347 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 5: It's not going to be the way you thought, with 348 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 5: the people you thought, how you were expecting it. So 349 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 5: don't put God in a box and tell him how 350 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 5: to do it, when to do it, who to use. 351 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 5: Sometimes we think God needs our help, that he doesn't 352 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 5: know all the details, so we have to fill him in. No, 353 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 5: let God do it his way. He has it all 354 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 5: figured out. His ways are better than our ways. As 355 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 5: long as you're set in your thinking here's how it's 356 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 5: going to happen, and who he's going to use, and 357 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 5: when it's going to happen, then you'll be frustrated. God 358 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 5: has ways you've never thought of. He's not waiting for 359 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 5: the angel. You may think you have to work your 360 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,360 Speaker 5: way up gradually in that company. If you can convince 361 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,479 Speaker 5: the supervisor to like you, in three years, you'll get 362 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:10,160 Speaker 5: a promotion. Maybe in five years you'll be an assistant manager. 363 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 5: One touch of God's favor will put you fifty years 364 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 5: down the road. We think natural. God thinks supernatural. He's 365 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,679 Speaker 5: going to do it a non traditional way. You didn't 366 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 5: see it coming. You weren't expecting it, But it's going 367 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 5: to be better than you imagine. When we needed a 368 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 5: larger auditorium, I thought we'd have to build like I'd 369 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 5: seen my father do so many times. I tried to 370 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 5: buy the property, but twice it was sold out from 371 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 5: under us. We had a verbal agreement, but the owners 372 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 5: didn't keep their word. I was disappointed. I had my 373 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 5: plan all figured out. We were going to purchase property, 374 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 5: build the auditorium, then we could grow. I couldn't understand 375 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 5: why these doors kept closing. I never dreamed one day 376 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:02,120 Speaker 5: we could own the Compact Center. This was the premier 377 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:06,400 Speaker 5: facility in our city, right on the main freeway. Two 378 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 5: million people a year came into it, a five hundred 379 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 5: million dollar facility. When I was out looking for property, 380 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:16,160 Speaker 5: I didn't think there were any more options. My plan 381 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 5: hadn't worked out. Then God stepped in and said, let 382 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 5: me show you what I have in mind. This was 383 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:26,439 Speaker 5: more than I could imagine. We leased the building for 384 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 5: a few years, then we purchased it for seven and 385 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 5: a half million dollars. You can't even buy the land 386 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 5: for that amount. But God knows how to do more 387 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:40,360 Speaker 5: than you can ask or think. He's not only going 388 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,880 Speaker 5: to bring you out a non traditional way, but he's 389 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 5: going to exceed your expectations. Are you out of season? 390 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 5: Have you gone through disappointments, closed doors? Stay encouraged. God 391 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 5: is up to something. He's working behind the scenes. He's 392 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 5: about to do something unusual, out of the ordinary, that 393 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 5: you weren't expecting. He has one of those I didn't 394 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 5: see it coming. Blessings heitted your way. In Luke, chapter five, 395 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 5: Jesus was by the Sea of Galilee one morning. He 396 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 5: noticed Peter's empty boat over on the shore. Peter was 397 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:21,880 Speaker 5: off cleaning his nets, tired after a long night of fishing. 398 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 5: There were so many people gathered around Jesus. He'd never 399 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 5: met Peter, but he asked to borrow his boat. Peter agreed, 400 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,879 Speaker 5: and Jesus pushed out from the shore and taught to people. 401 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 5: When he was finished, he wanted to do something to 402 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 5: thank Peter. He told him to go back out into 403 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 5: the water and he would catch a great haul of fish. 404 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:47,679 Speaker 5: Peter was a professional fisherman. He had done this for years. 405 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,119 Speaker 5: He knew when to fish. This type of fishing you 406 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 5: didn't do in the morning. Everything in Peter said, don't 407 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 5: go back out. It's going to be a waste of time. 408 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 5: This is not when the fish normally by. Peter said, sir, 409 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 5: we worked hard all last night and caught nothing. Yet, 410 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 5: if you say so, I'll go back out. He went 411 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 5: out and caught so many fish that his net began 412 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 5: to break. What's interesting is there were no fish there 413 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:21,479 Speaker 5: the night before. But God controls the fish. He doesn't 414 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 5: have to wait for the right time, the right season, 415 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 5: for the way it normally happens. God can break the rules. 416 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 5: He can do it at an inopportune time. When you 417 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 5: didn't have the finances, when the property was sold out 418 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 5: from under you, when you've struggled with the addiction for years. 419 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 5: Shouldn't have happened. You weren't next in line. But God 420 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:46,719 Speaker 5: blessed you out of season. He turned it around a 421 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 5: non traditional way. Verse nine said Peter was awe struck 422 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:56,919 Speaker 5: by the size of his catch. God has some blessings 423 00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 5: for you that are going to leave you awe struck. 424 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:03,439 Speaker 5: You can't explain it. It's just the goodness of God. 425 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 5: It's going to happen when you're out of season, when 426 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 5: the conditions aren't favorable, doesn't look like the right time. 427 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 5: Just when you thought it would never work out, God's 428 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 5: going to surprise you. He's going to bring you a 429 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 5: great haul, something that you've never seen. Paul told Timothy 430 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 5: in the scripture, be prepared in season and out of season. 431 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 5: He was talking about ministry, but the principle is still true. 432 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:35,479 Speaker 5: Stay prepared in your mind in season when things are 433 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 5: going your way, and out of season, when the fish 434 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 5: aren't biting, when the medical reports not good, when business 435 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 5: slows down. Don't want to start complaining I didn't catch 436 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 5: you anything last night, just my luck. Get ready for 437 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 5: God to show up out of season. The fish may 438 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 5: not have been there last time, that doesn't mean they're 439 00:26:56,520 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 5: not going to be there next time. God knows how 440 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 5: to bring what you need. The odds may be against you, 441 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 5: you don't see any sign of it happening. God is 442 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 5: asking you what he asked Moses. Is there any limit 443 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 5: to my power? Do you think the conditions can hold 444 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 5: me back, that the seasons can stop me from doing 445 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 5: what I want to do? In your life? Take the 446 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:24,640 Speaker 5: limits off of God, get your hopes back up, start expecting. 447 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 5: If you'll do this, I believe and declare. God is 448 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:32,159 Speaker 5: about to bless you out of season. He's about to 449 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 5: do something unusual, out of the ordinary, that you didn't 450 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 5: see coming. It's going to catapult you to the next level. 451 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:45,160 Speaker 5: You're going to suddenly come into healing, breakthroughs, promotion, favor 452 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 5: Like Peter You're going to look back and be awe 453 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:51,880 Speaker 5: struck at the goodness of our God. In Jesus' name, 454 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 5: if you receive it, can you say him in Today? 455 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 5: I'd like to give you an opportunity to make Jesus 456 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,639 Speaker 5: the Lord of your life. Would you pray with me? 457 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 5: Just say Lord Jesus, I'll repent of my sins. Come 458 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,479 Speaker 5: into my heart. I'll make you my lord and savior. 459 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 5: If you prayed that simple prayer, we believe you got 460 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 5: born again.
