Speaker 1: A friend, reappreciate you and pray for God's very best.

6
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:16,160
Speaker 2: In your line, you sound amazing, You may be speeded.

7
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:19,440
Speaker 2: Have you ever felt like you didn't have the strength

8
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 2: to go on or maybe you feel like that the

9
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 2: task at hand is just so difficult and why in

10
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,320
Speaker 2: the world are you doing it? You know, sometimes we

11
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 2: don't think we can do what we're facing. We don't

12
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 2: think we can overcome the challenge, or or maybe you've

13
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:38,879
Speaker 2: been asked to do something, maybe you've been put in

14
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 2: a job or promotion where it looks like, Wow, I

15
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:44,839
Speaker 2: don't know if I have the talent and ability to

16
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 2: be able to handle what I need to handle. But

17
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,159
Speaker 2: can I tell you today that in tewod Corinthians, it

18
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 2: says that God's strength is made perfect in your weakness.

19
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 2: So anything that you don't have God has the strength for.

20
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 2: So whatever you're facing today, God has all the strength

21
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 2: you ever need. And that's comforting to know because sometimes

22
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 2: we want to look at the very end result, and

23
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 2: we want to see how in the world will ever

24
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 2: get there. But God is just saying, look at today.

25
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 2: My grace is sufficient for today. Everything you need is

26
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 2: here today. I think the trouble we get into is

27
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 2: we start working on tomorrow's grace today we say, say,

28
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 2: but but what about tomorrow? God, when God is saying,

29
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 2: don't worry about tomorrow. I just just work on today.

30
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,680
Speaker 2: I got tomorrow handled, you know. And then when we

31
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 2: start doing these kind of things, we start questioning ourselves.

32
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 2: Then we start having these doubts, and we have fears

33
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 2: and maybe I'm not enough, maybe I'm not adequate, maybe

34
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 2: I don't have what it takes. And then we start

35
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 2: going down the wrong road. But God said, before the

36
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 2: foundation of the world, he already knew you, and He's

37
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 2: already equipped you to do whatever he's going to call

38
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 2: you to do. But you know what I've noticed about God.

39
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 2: He puts things in us that we don't know that's

40
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 2: in us. It's a mystery. Have you ever done something

41
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 2: you thought how did that happen? How do I think

42
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 2: about that? That's incredible? Well that's God. Because God, it's

43
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 2: smarter than we are. But he puts things on the

44
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 2: inside of us so that we can mine the gold

45
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 2: out of us. And we can't be fearful of that.

46
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 2: We can't shrink back and think we don't have the ability,

47
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 2: because the ability is in there. If you're facing something,

48
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 2: whatever it is today, whatever it is today, even if

49
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 2: it's a dream, and you want that dream, but you're

50
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 2: scared to attach yourself to that dream because you're thinking,

51
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 2: maybe it's just a wish and maybe it's not really

52
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 2: what God wants. I don't want to tell you something.

53
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 2: Grab hold of that thing, grab hold of it and

54
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 2: believe you have what it takes. Draw strength from God.

55
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 2: All you have to do is grab hold of his strength.

56
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 2: Because when you are weak, when you are in doubt,

57
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 2: it's no surprise to God, because God said, have already

58
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,399
Speaker 2: made provision for your weakness. Guess what, when you're weak,

59
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 2: you're setting me up to be strong if you handle

60
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 2: it the right way, You're setting me up to let

61
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 2: my power work through you. Don't close yourself off, but

62
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,640
Speaker 2: open yourself up to God. And you know what I

63
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 2: think about this. I think I'm up here today and

64
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 2: the truth of the matter is there's probably a lot

65
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 2: of you that could do a better job than me.

66
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 2: So I could really stay in that seat, and I'll

67
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 2: tell you sometimes I want to, But the truth is

68
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 2: God put me up here, so I got to embrace

69
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 2: the place that I'm at. I gotta just say, God,

70
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 2: you know what, when I'm weak, you're strong. Hey. It's

71
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 2: not what I say, it's what you do. God, It's

72
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 2: what the people hear. God, it's what you want to

73
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 2: get across to them. Now, I'm gonna study, I'm gonna

74
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 2: show myself approved, I'm gonna fight through. I'm gonna be determined.

75
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 2: I'm gonna try to pick myself up every day because listen,

76
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 2: there is no temptation that is not known to all

77
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 2: of us. There's no struggle that we don't all face.

78
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 2: Let me tell you something, no one's exempt. We all

79
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 2: face the same thing. We all face the same challenges.

80
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 2: But it's how do we deal with those challenges. How

81
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 2: do we break through those barriers and those limitations. We

82
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 2: got to grab hold of the strength of God. It's

83
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,839
Speaker 2: great when people encourage you. It's wonderful when people say, man,

84
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 2: that's a good job, or they tell you about your talents,

85
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 2: they tell you about your gifts. But how about when

86
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,599
Speaker 2: you look up and there's no one there to encourage you,

87
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 2: and you're facing something. That's when you have to say, God,

88
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 2: I can't depend on people because people can do the

89
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 2: best they can do, but they can't do what God

90
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 2: can do. And so there's a point that we can't

91
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 2: depend on other people. We can't let them be our crutch.

92
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 2: We've got to say, God, it's you and me, it's

93
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 2: us God, and you know what, we're a majority. We

94
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 2: can do this together. I think too often we just

95
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 2: sit back and say, you know what, it's too difficult

96
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 2: for me, so I'm not going to do it because

97
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,919
Speaker 2: that's the comfortable thing to do, and we let things

98
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 2: pass that we shouldn't. And that's when we get unhappy

99
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 2: because there's some on the inside of us that's saying

100
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 2: there's more in store. You can do this, you can

101
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 2: do this. It's always pushing us. It's always pushing us.

102
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 2: Now it's a matter of are we going to take

103
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 2: the step of faith and do it. I've heard Joel

104
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 2: say this a thousand times and you probably have too.

105
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 2: His hands up hearing, he says, I never knew this

106
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 2: was in me. He said, I'll work behind the scenes

107
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 2: for seventeen years. I like being behind the scenes. I

108
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,599
Speaker 2: never knew this was in me. And he'll tell you

109
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 2: when he got up here the first time you're talking

110
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 2: about weak, he was weak. He was so weak, he said,

111
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 2: I had to hold onto the podium. He said, what

112
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 2: are all you guys doing looking at me? You know,

113
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 2: I'll never forget that first sermon. I looked down at

114
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 2: Joel and I saw him wearing his father's shoes. Now, listen,

115
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 2: these shoes were shoes that he and I had bought

116
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 2: years ago in Italy for his father. We wanted to

117
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 2: give him something really special, so we bought him a

118
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 2: pair of alligator shoes, something he wouldn't buy for himself.

119
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 2: We used all the money we had so we couldn't

120
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,839
Speaker 2: buy anything for ourselves. But we brought those shoes home

121
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 2: and we presented to his father, and his father loved

122
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 2: the shoes, their beautiful shoes. But when I looked up

123
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 2: there and I saw him wearing his dad's shoes, of

124
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,840
Speaker 2: course a thousand things went through my mind. I was

125
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 2: always sitting on the edge of my seat, just saying, God,

126
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,039
Speaker 2: give him everything I have and everything you have too.

127
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 2: But the truth of the matter is he wasn't wearing

128
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 2: his father's shoes to fill his father's shoes. He was

129
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 2: wearing his father's shoes to draw strength from his father's shoes.

130
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,600
Speaker 2: And I just hope that you can get an image

131
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:40,480
Speaker 2: of the picture of someone who was standing on a platform,

132
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 2: never dreaming in their life that they were going to

133
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 2: be in the position that they were in, but found

134
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:50,359
Speaker 2: a strength in their father's shoes. Whether you're facing a

135
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 2: difficult child, whether you're facing a promotion that you need

136
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,600
Speaker 2: to have at work, whatever it is, maybe it's a sickness,

137
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 2: maybe it's an illness of financial trouble, whatever you're facing,

138
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 2: I just want you to get the picture of Joel's

139
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 2: standing in his father's shoes, and I want you to

140
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 2: translate that to yourself, of you standing in your heavenly

141
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 2: father's shoes, knowing that there's nothing that can defeat you,

142
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 2: nothing you can't do that it will happen if you'll stand,

143
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 2: if you'll put those strength, that strength, the strength of

144
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 2: those shoes on your father shoes. Listen, we all need

145
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 2: to borrow God's shoes. We all need to walk in

146
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 2: that place because that's where we're going to find our strength.

147
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 2: You know, I truly believe God asked us to do

148
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 2: things that are way over our head for the very

149
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 2: reason that he knows it's over our head. He knows

150
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 2: it's going to be difficult for us, and I honestly

151
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 2: believe He does that to keep us on our knees,

152
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 2: to keep us dependent on him. Because see, you're never

153
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 2: gonna achieve what He's called you to do unless you're

154
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 2: dependent on him. Because if you can do it in

155
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 2: your own strength, I can tell you this, it's not God.

156
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 2: Because God wants you to go beyond your ability and

157
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 2: tap into his ability. He wants you to go beyond

158
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 2: what you think you can do and get into what

159
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 2: only you can do when you do it with God.

160
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 2: Walk in your father's shoes. Whenever you feel feared, and

161
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 2: whenever you feel doubt, just slip those shoes on and say, God,

162
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 2: I don't need to worry about tomorrow. All I need

163
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 2: is to have enough strength for today. And God, I

164
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 2: know that when I am walking in your shoes and

165
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 2: in your strength, your grace is sufficient. You'll add the

166
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 2: people to me that I need. You'll open the right

167
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 2: doors for me, You'll give me the ideas. But I'm

168
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 2: going to wait upon you. The pople talks a lot

169
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 2: about pulling down God's strength. It says, wait upon the

170
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 2: Lord and He'll renew your strength. That means stay in

171
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 2: those shoes, don't get out of those shoes, don't give up,

172
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 2: don't release what you have in your hands because you're afraid.

173
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,559
Speaker 2: Stay in those shoes. God will bring that strength to you.

174
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 2: But he wus to see our determination. I can tell

175
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 2: you this. I saw my husband's determination. I saw what

176
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 2: it took to get to where he is today. I

177
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,839
Speaker 2: am so glad he didn't let his weakness be an

178
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 2: excuse because we wouldn't enjoy the hope of the gospel

179
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 2: that we have coming from this place today. People's lives

180
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 2: wouldn't be changed. If he want to say it's easy

181
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 2: to stay in the background, if that's the comfortable place.

182
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 2: In fact, he likes the background. But I can tell

183
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:33,679
Speaker 2: you he's saying, I'm determined because it's my call. And

184
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,680
Speaker 2: if God's called me, it's gonna be bigger than me.

185
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:37,559
Speaker 2: And if it's bigger than me, the only way I

186
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 2: can accomplish it is by the strength of Almighty God.

187
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 2: Walking your father's shoes. He's gonna call you to great things,

188
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 2: don't shrink back, don't put limitations on yourself. You've got

189
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 2: exactly what you need. There is gold on the inside

190
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 2: of you, but the only way it's gonna come out

191
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 2: is if you stand strong and you and you make

192
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 2: it come out. Because God is your confidence, and he

193
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 2: is your God, and He's going to take you to

194
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:07,200
Speaker 2: the places.

195
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: You need to be.

196
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 2: Amen. Amen, we love him so much today He's a

197
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 2: faithful God, faithful God.

198
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 3: Every day we can live discouraged, angry, depressed, defeated. Is

199
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,560
Speaker 3: it possible to turn these negatives into an outlook filled
