She'd go out on her front 16 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:39,400 Speaker 2: porch every morning and thank the Lord for another day. 17 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 2: Her neighbor didn't believe in God. He'd shout back, there's 18 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 2: no such thing as the Lord. One day he overheard 19 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 2: her asking God to give her groceries for the week. 20 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:51,840 Speaker 1: He snuck over early the next morning. 21 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 2: Put groceries on her front porch. She came out and said, 22 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 2: thank you, Lord, you did it again. He laughed and said, 23 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 2: God didn't give you those groceries I put in there. 24 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 2: She said, Lord, thank you, You not only sent me 25 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,680 Speaker 2: the groceries, but you've made the devil pay for them. 26 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 1: Say it like you mean it. 27 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 2: This is my Bible. I am what it says I am. 28 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 2: I have what it says I have. I can do 29 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 2: what it says I can do. Today I will be 30 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,760 Speaker 2: taught the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind 31 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 2: is alert, my heart is receptive. I will never be 32 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 2: the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want 33 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 2: to talk to you today about you are good seed. 34 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 2: Life tries to convince us that we're average. There's nothing 35 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 2: special about us. We have too many obstacles. We'll never 36 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 2: accomplish our dreams. We've made too many mistakes. We'll never 37 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 2: leave our mark. We don't realize who we are. The 38 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 2: scripture says we have the divine nature of God. We 39 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 2: are his offspring. That means you have the DNA of 40 00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 2: Almighty God in your seed. Is favor, creativity, courage, new levels. 41 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 2: You can't have God's DNA and be average. That seed 42 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 2: will override challenges. That seed will propel you where you 43 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 2: can't go on your own. If you're going to reach 44 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 2: your potential, you have to know you are good seed. 45 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 2: God wouldn't have breathed his life into you. He wouldn't 46 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 2: have chosen you before you could choose him if you 47 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 2: didn't have purpose, destiny, greatness. There's something in you that 48 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 2: will cause you to leave your mark. You may have 49 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 2: made mistakes, but that didn't stop the seed. You may 50 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 2: have come from negative circumstances, but that doesn't change your seed. 51 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 2: Don't let how you were raised, what you didn't get, 52 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 2: any dysfunction convince you that you're not up to par. 53 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 2: You can't do something great. The environment doesn't change the seed. 54 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:57,519 Speaker 2: You can have bad circumstances, but because you're good seed, 55 00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:59,079 Speaker 2: you're still going to shine. 56 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: You're still going to blossom. 57 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 2: A young lady told me how when her mother was 58 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 2: pregnant with her, she was addicted to drugs. When she 59 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 2: was born, she had the same addiction. It seemed like 60 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 2: she was at a disadvantage. She was sent from foster 61 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 2: home to foster home. All the odds were against her. 62 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 2: But today she's successful. She runs her own company, she 63 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 2: has healthy children, a great marriage. 64 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: Why is that bad. 65 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 2: Circumstances can't stop a good seed? 66 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 1: Can I tell you you are a good seed? 67 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 2: God has crowned you with favor. You have royal blood 68 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 2: flowing through your veins. You wouldn't be here if you 69 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 2: weren't equipped, empowered, and anointed. You may have been raised 70 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 2: in an unhealthy environment by people that had issues. 71 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: But here's the key. 72 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 2: You came through your mother, but you came from Almighty God. 73 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 2: Who you come from is more important than who you 74 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 2: come through. And the soil may not all always be perfect. 75 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 2: But because your seed is so good, you will succeed 76 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 2: despite the dysfunction. You will prosper despite the economy. You 77 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 2: will raise great children despite negative influences. You will overcome 78 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 2: the illness, despite what the medical report says. All these 79 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 2: negative circumstances. Really they're just fertilizer. They can't stop your seed. 80 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 2: The stinky stuff, the bad breaks, the people that walked away. 81 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 2: We don't like it, but it didn't stop your destiny. 82 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 2: It simply fertilized your seed. It made you stronger, more confident. 83 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 2: Don't complain about the fertilizer. You need fertilizer to boost 84 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 2: your growth. We have some flower beds at home. A 85 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 2: couple of times a year we put mulch in them. 86 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 2: One of the main ingredients of mulch is manure. 87 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 1: It smells so. 88 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 2: Badly you can hardly stay outside. But in a couple 89 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 2: of months the smell is gone. When the plants are blooming, blossoming, 90 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 2: seeing new growth. The fertilizer, as stinky as it smells, 91 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 2: it's providing valuable nutrients and minerals for the plants. Sometimes 92 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 2: life stinks. 93 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: We go through things that are not fair. 94 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 2: We came down with an illness, our child is struggling, 95 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 2: the business has slowed. We think these negative circumstances are 96 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 2: going to stop us. 97 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 1: Have a new perspective. It's fertilizer. 98 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 2: It stinks, but it's not working against you. It's working 99 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 2: for you. God is going to take what was meant 100 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 2: for your harm and turn it to your advantage. It 101 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 2: was meant to stop you. But if you'll keep believing, 102 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 2: keep thanking God, keep doing the right thing, you're going 103 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 2: to come out stronger, healthier, better than you were before. 104 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 1: Don't sweat the stinky stuff. We all have fertilizer. 105 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 2: That coworker that gets on your nerves, always trying to 106 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 2: stir up next time you see them. Instead of being 107 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,919 Speaker 2: frustrated under your breath, you're just fertilizer. You're trying to 108 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 2: push me down. You don't realize I'm good seed. I 109 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 2: have the DNA of Almighty God, what He's destined for you. 110 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 2: No person can stop what God has put in your seed, 111 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:24,799 Speaker 2: that greatness, that purpose. No sickness, no addiction, no trouble. 112 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 2: All the forces of darkness cannot keep your seed from flourishing. 113 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 2: Just ask Joseph, betrayed by his brothers, thrown into a pit, 114 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 2: sold into slavery, falsely accused, put in prison, one bad 115 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 2: break after another. He could have been depressed. God, you 116 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 2: said I'd be in leadership. I must have heard you wrong. 117 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 2: He understood this principle that bad circumstances cannot stop good seed, 118 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 2: that negative situations are simply fertilizer. They're necessary so you 119 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 2: can bloom. When his brother betrayed him, instead of trying 120 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 2: to get even his attitude was they just fertilized me. 121 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 2: When Potiphar's wife falsely accused him, I'm not worried more fertilizer. 122 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 2: One day, unexpectedly, the Pharaoh called for Joseph. 123 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: He went to the palace. 124 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 2: He ended up making Joseph the prime minister of Egypt. 125 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 2: When you understand that you are good seed, that what 126 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 2: God promised will come to pass. Then you won't complain 127 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 2: about the fertilizer. The fertilizer is necessary. Yes it stinks, 128 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 2: Yes it's uncomfortable, but it's making that seed stronger. 129 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: It's developing your character. It's giving you endurance. 130 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 2: It's getting you prepared to blossom in position to see 131 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 2: the greatness of our God. I talked to a man 132 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 2: that was so upset because his boss was against him 133 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 2: and always trying to make him look bad. I told 134 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 2: him what I'm telling you, it's fertilizer. Stay on the 135 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 2: high road and go. God will not only do a 136 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 2: work in you, but he'll take care of your enemies. 137 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 2: It may stink right now, but don't worry. Fertilizer stinks. 138 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 2: That means you're about to see new growth. He got 139 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 2: his passion back and went to the office, being his best, 140 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 2: taking the high road, working under God, not on de man. 141 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 2: Several occasions he should have been promoted, but because of 142 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 2: this unfair boss, he was passed over. One day, the 143 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 2: CEO of the whole company was in town and this 144 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 2: man had to give a report. 145 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: The CEO was very impressed with his work. 146 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 2: About a year later, a position came available that should 147 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 2: have gone to his boss. But this CEO skipped over 148 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 2: the boss and went straight to this man and offered 149 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 2: the position to him. Now, instead of having to work 150 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 2: for that boss was hard to get along with, the 151 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:54,199 Speaker 2: tables have turned. 152 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: The boss is working for him. 153 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,719 Speaker 2: One touch of God's favor and you'll go from the 154 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 2: back to the front, from the prison to the palace. 155 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 2: When Joel, I've got a lot of fertilizer on me, 156 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 2: I have a lot coming against me. That tells me 157 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 2: you're about to blossom in an amazing way. 158 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: You wouldn't have that difficulty. 159 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 2: You wouldn't have all the fertilizer if God wasn't about 160 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 2: to do something awesome in your life. I was out 161 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 2: on my driveway the other day and I saw this 162 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 2: weed growing up in the middle of the concrete. 163 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: I thought, how is that possible. 164 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 2: The concrete is hard, there's no good soil, The conditions 165 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 2: are totally unfavorable. But when God wants your seed to 166 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 2: come up, concrete can't stop it. 167 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: Bad breaks can't stop it. 168 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 2: The life God put in you is more powerful than 169 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 2: any force that's trying to hold you back. Think about 170 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 2: a little seed, even planted in the ground, the dirt 171 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 2: that's on top of it is hundreds of times heavier. 172 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 2: People can walk on top of the dirt, push it down, 173 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 2: compact it, make it harder. The seed doesn't look like 174 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,679 Speaker 2: it has a chance. The dirt could say, too bad, 175 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 2: you're done. You'll never overpower me. I'm bigger, stronger, heavier. 176 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 2: But the seed doesn't worry. The seed doesn't start complaining. 177 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 2: I thought I was supposed to grow. I thought I 178 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 2: was going to be a beautiful flower. I guess it 179 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 2: wasn't meant to be. No, the seed just rest in 180 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 2: what God created it to be. The seed doesn't have 181 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 2: to do the work. It lets the life put in 182 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:35,319 Speaker 2: it by its creator do the work. Before long, that 183 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 2: little seed opens up, and against all odds, it begins 184 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 2: to push back the dirt. Over time, it's standing above 185 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:47,679 Speaker 2: the ground with beautiful flowers shining brightly. You may have 186 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 2: some dirt on you, now, don't worry. You are good seed. 187 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 2: What God put in you is more powerful than what's 188 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 2: trying to stop you. Like that little seed, you don't 189 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,199 Speaker 2: have to make it happen, try to manipulate things, force 190 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 2: it to work, live stressed out. No, you can rest 191 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 2: knowing that the seed is going to do the work. 192 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 2: The scripture says God watches over his word to perform it. 193 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 2: His word is called seed. In the same way God 194 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 2: is watching over your seed. He's making sure what he 195 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 2: put in you is going to come to pass. Good 196 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 2: seed is not stopped by bad circumstances. 197 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: Good seed is. 198 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:33,199 Speaker 2: Not stopped by opposition. In life, you'll have some dirt 199 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 2: put on you. At times, it feels like you're buried. 200 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 2: You'll never get past this sickness, this trouble, this addiction. 201 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 2: It's dark, you feel pressure all around, you don't see 202 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 2: a way out. 203 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 1: The good news is you're not buried. You're planted. 204 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,679 Speaker 2: The difference is when you're buried, you're done, but when 205 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 2: you're planted, you're coming up again, stronger. 206 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:58,960 Speaker 1: Healthier, more successful. 207 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 2: But he being planted feels the same as being buried. 208 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 2: It's dark, it's uncomfortable. We don't see anything good. There's pressure. 209 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 2: If you judge things too soon, you'll get discouraged, give 210 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 2: up on your dreams, think it will never work out. 211 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 2: God has you hearing this to let you know you're 212 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 2: not buried, you're planted. Yes, it's uncomfortable, Yes you don't 213 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 2: understand it, but this is not the end. The seed 214 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 2: God put in you is about to spring forth the dreams, 215 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 2: the health, the freedom, the abundance, the right people. Don't 216 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 2: be discouraged by the dirt. The seed is designed to 217 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 2: push back the dirt. It's designed to outlast the opposition. 218 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 2: The seed will not fail. The life of Almighty God 219 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 2: is in that seed. My grandfather was a great gardener. 220 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,959 Speaker 2: He loved to plant things. He knew how to grow 221 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 2: all kinds of fruits, vegetables, flowers. One thing that made 222 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 2: him so good at gardening is he knew when the plant. 223 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,559 Speaker 2: He knew there was a specific time to plant tomatoes, 224 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 2: a specific time to plant roses. 225 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: Just because he had good seed. 226 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 2: If he didn't plant it at the right time, it 227 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 2: wouldn't become what it should. He didn't just randomly plant 228 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 2: whenever he felt like it. He did it strategically. He 229 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 2: made sure it was the right season and all the 230 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 2: conditions were in place so the seed could grow. Jesus 231 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 2: said in John fifteen that God is the gardener. He 232 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 2: knew exactly when the plant in You could have been 233 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 2: born three hundred years ago, you could have lived two 234 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 2: hundred years from now. You didn't just happen to show 235 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 2: up on planet Earth today. Your parents just decided to 236 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,959 Speaker 2: have a baby. God knew you before you were formed 237 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:59,119 Speaker 2: in your mother's womb. And when God, as the master gardener, 238 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 2: thought about when to plant you, he didn't just randomly 239 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 2: do it, just pick a date, pick any time. God 240 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 2: is strategic, like my grandfather, knew there was a specific 241 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 2: time to plant. God looked down through the ages of time. 242 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,679 Speaker 2: He studied what would be going on, what the economy 243 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 2: would be like, the culture, the technology, the opposition. He 244 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 2: took into account everything we would face. Then he put 245 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 2: his DNA in us. He matched us for the season 246 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,239 Speaker 2: we would live in. The scripture says in Acts seventeen, 247 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 2: God predetermined when you would be born, where you would 248 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 2: be born, and what tribe, what family you would come from, 249 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 2: before your parents ever breed the breath, before they ever 250 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 2: showed up. God already knew you and chose when you 251 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 2: would live. 252 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 1: He planted you for this time. This is your moment. 253 00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 1: You've been equipped and empowered. 254 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 2: He's put his anointing on your life, his favor. You 255 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 2: have the talent, the courage, the connections. Everything has been 256 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 2: strategically thought out. You're not lacking the obstacles. You face 257 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 2: are not too much for you. If you couldn't handle it, 258 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 2: God wouldn't have planted you now. If the giants were 259 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 2: too big, you wouldn't be here. If the dream wasn't attainable, 260 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 2: you wouldn't have breath. 261 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: You are here for such a time as this. 262 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 2: God knew there would be a pandemic. He knew there'd 263 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 2: be people trying to stop you. He knew about that illness. 264 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 2: You'd have to face the opposition that looks too big. 265 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 2: The fact that he planted you now tells me the 266 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 2: conditions are right for you to succeed. The conditions are 267 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 2: right for you to leave your mark. The circumstances may 268 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 2: not be good, but God wouldn't have planted you at 269 00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 2: this time if the soil wasn't conducive. 270 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: For your seed to grow. 271 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 2: And sometimes the soil may feel like concrete, but you 272 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 2: have to remind yourself you're still going to blossom, You're 273 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 2: still going to flourish. 274 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: Why you are good seed. 275 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 2: You've been strategically planted by the master gardener. You're not 276 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 2: like a weed you just randomly popped up, randomly, got 277 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 2: here with no purpose. No, your destiny has been carefully planned. 278 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 2: When you understand that you've been chosen for this time. 279 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 2: It will give you a greater confidence. God could have 280 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 2: chosen David to live now, He could have chosen Abraham, Sarah, Ruth. 281 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 2: But when he strategized about who will be the right 282 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 2: people for the year twenty twenty, Who can I trust 283 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 2: in that difficult time? Who has the courage, the talent, 284 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 2: the fortitude to carry out my will to do awesome things? 285 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: He passed over all the saints of old. 286 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 2: He looked beyond Jeremiah, is Ekiel, Mary, Martha, and he 287 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,400 Speaker 2: looked into your eyes. He said, that's who I can 288 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 2: count on. That's the right one for this hour. He 289 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 2: didn't just send you here on your own. He put 290 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 2: his DNA in you. He equipped you with what you 291 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 2: need to succeed at this time. You may not have 292 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 2: what Moses had, but you don't need what he had. 293 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 2: God planted you now because this is the right time 294 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 2: for you to. 295 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: Flourish, to blossom. 296 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 2: To accomplish dreams, to overcome obstacles, to leave your mark 297 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 2: even in the natural. Do you know what a miracle 298 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 2: it is that you were conceived. When your seed was 299 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,360 Speaker 2: trying to connect with your mother's egg, there were two 300 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty million sperm fighting for that one spot. 301 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 1: What are the chances that you would win? You're not 302 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 1: an accident. 303 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,880 Speaker 2: When it was your time, God said all right, I'm 304 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:58,119 Speaker 2: going to plant them now. 305 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:00,880 Speaker 1: That's why you could off two. 306 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 2: Hundred and fifty million and your seed connected. 307 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 1: You entered that wound. 308 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 2: God destined you to be here before you showed up. 309 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 2: You defied the odds before you were born. You defeated giants. 310 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 2: You're already an overcomer. You're already victorious. You were born 311 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 2: with favor. Without God's blessing, you would have never made 312 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 2: it into this world. 313 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: Here's my point. 314 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 2: God wouldn't have gone to all that trouble if you 315 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 2: were average. He wouldn't have carefully and strategically planned out 316 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 2: your destiny if you were just supposed to drift through life, 317 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 2: overcome by problems, struggle to make it. 318 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,400 Speaker 1: He chose you because you are good seed. 319 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,880 Speaker 2: You have greatness in you. You are destined to take 320 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 2: your family to a new level. After all, God has done, 321 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 2: hand picked you for this time, put his DNA in you, 322 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 2: crowned you with his favor. 323 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,399 Speaker 1: Don't you dare or go through life? 324 00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 2: Think in your ordinary I can't overcome this challenge. 325 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,160 Speaker 1: I'll never get well. I've reached my limits. 326 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 2: God wouldn't have planted you now if that was going 327 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:08,199 Speaker 2: to stop you. 328 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: He knew what the economy would be, he knew the struggles, 329 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: the opposition. 330 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 2: The fact that he planted you is a sure sign 331 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 2: you are well, able to overcome, well, able to raise 332 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:24,719 Speaker 2: those children, well, able to beat that cancer, well, able 333 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:29,439 Speaker 2: to accomplish your dreams. Jeremiah said, you will be like 334 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 2: a tree planted by the water, a tree not bothered 335 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:37,199 Speaker 2: by the heat or long months of drought. Your leaves 336 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 2: will stay green, they will keep on producing luscious fruit. 337 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 2: Good seed is not affected by the drought. Good seed 338 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 2: keeps on producing even in famine. Good seed outlast the opposition. 339 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 2: Good seed accomplishes dreams bigger than you imagine. I know 340 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 2: today I am looking at good seed. I'm looking at 341 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:05,400 Speaker 2: people that have been handpicked by the creator of the universe. 342 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: I'm looking at people. 343 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 2: That have greatness in them, great parents, great students, great leaders, 344 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 2: people that. 345 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:17,120 Speaker 1: Have great influence, great wisdom, great opportunities. 346 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 2: I'm looking at people that are healthy, free, redeemed, restored, victorious. Well, Joel, 347 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 2: this sounds good, but I've made a lot of mistakes. 348 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 2: That's why I'm down on myself. That didn't change your seed. 349 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 2: You are still good to seed. 350 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: Abraham is the father of our faith. He was a 351 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 1: great man. 352 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 2: No disrespect, But Abraham lied, told a king that Sarah 353 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 2: was his sister and not his wife. Abraham had a 354 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 2: baby out of wedlock. 355 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,880 Speaker 1: He wasn't perfect. He made mistakes, but. 356 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 2: The scripture says Abraham did not waver in his faith. 357 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: Lying seems like wavering. 358 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 2: To me, a baby with someone other than your wife 359 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 2: seems like wavering. 360 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: But God doesn't judge the way we judge. 361 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:10,360 Speaker 2: We look at our faults, our weaknesses, the times we failed. 362 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 2: We let the accuser fill our mind with condemnation. I'm 363 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 2: not good seed. Look at the mistakes I've made. I'm 364 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 2: not good seed. I went through a divorce, my business failed. 365 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 2: I'm struggling with an addiction. Do you think you can 366 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,439 Speaker 2: do something that will change the seed God put in you, 367 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 2: that you can override what he breathed into your DNA. 368 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 2: You're not that powerful. You can't change what God has 369 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 2: already done. He's saying to you what he said to Jeremiah, 370 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,960 Speaker 2: I knew you before you were formed in your mother's womb, 371 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:51,719 Speaker 2: and I approved you before Jeremiah did anything good, before 372 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,239 Speaker 2: he showed up on planet Earth. God said I approved you. 373 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 2: Too often we're trying to work for God's approval to 374 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 2: be good enough, strong. 375 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: Enough, disciplined enough. 376 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:06,919 Speaker 2: The problem is we all fail, we all make mistakes, 377 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 2: but that doesn't change what God put in you. You 378 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 2: are still good seed. You can still have fulfilled your destiny. 379 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,399 Speaker 2: You can still become who you were created to be. 380 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 2: Gonna let the accuser convince you that you've blown it 381 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 2: too many times. You don't measure up. God will never 382 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 2: be pleased with you. God is saying to you today, 383 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 2: I've approved you. My hand of favor is on you. 384 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:37,439 Speaker 2: I have forgiveness for your mistakes, mercy for your failures, 385 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 2: favor for your future. Now, I wonder what would happen 386 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 2: if every day you would start saying, I am good seed. 387 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 1: When the accuser. 388 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 2: Whispers you're a hypocrite, look at your mistakes, say it again, Father, 389 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,959 Speaker 2: thank you that I am good seed, that you have 390 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:58,120 Speaker 2: mercy for my mistakes, that what you started in my life. 391 00:22:57,840 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 1: You will finish. 392 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:05,199 Speaker 2: Seed will override mistakes you've made. Good seed overrides failures 393 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 2: times you didn't measure up. You've been planted at this time, 394 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 2: not only because God believes in you, but. 395 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,719 Speaker 1: He's equipped you. You are full of can do power. 396 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 2: The forces that are for you are greater than forces 397 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 2: that are trying to stop you. God is breathing in 398 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 2: your direction right now. Chains that have held you back 399 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,640 Speaker 2: are being broken. New doors of opportunity are. 400 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:31,439 Speaker 1: About to open. 401 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 2: God is about to show you a sign of his favor. 402 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,919 Speaker 2: He's going to do something unusual, out of the ordinary, 403 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 2: something that's never happened in your family. It's going to 404 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 2: defy the odds. 405 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 1: Get ready. 406 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 2: The greatness God put in you is about to come out. 407 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,680 Speaker 1: He doesn't have you here just to take up space. 408 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 2: There's an assignment for you to accomplish something that only 409 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 2: you can do. Without you stepping into your purpose, this world. 410 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 1: Will not be what it should be. 411 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 2: There was a young Jewish lady in the scripture named Esther. 412 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 1: She was an orphan. 413 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 2: She had lost both of her parents, raised in poverty, 414 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 2: she had all these bad breaks. Looked like she was 415 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:17,239 Speaker 2: at a disadvantage. She would never do anything great. But 416 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 2: bad circumstances can't stop good seed. What didn't work out 417 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 2: how you were raised, Who left you the illness that 418 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:29,640 Speaker 2: didn't stop your destiny. That doesn't mean you'll never leave 419 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 2: your mark. Why, Because you are a good seed. The 420 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 2: most tied God breathed his life into you. You're still 421 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 2: going to flourish. You're still going to meet someone great. 422 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 2: You're still going to live healthy and whole. You're still 423 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:48,120 Speaker 2: going to start that business. The King of Persia decided 424 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 2: to have a beauty pageant so he could find a wife. 425 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 1: Someone invited Esther to enter. 426 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 2: Out of the thousands of girls in the Persian Empire, 427 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 2: Esther was chosen as the queen, the least likely one. 428 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 2: A man named Hayman, one of the king's advisers, came 429 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,400 Speaker 2: up with a plan to get rid of all the Jews. 430 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 1: The king didn't know that Estra was Jewish. 431 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 2: When her uncle heard about it, he said, you have 432 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,399 Speaker 2: to talk to the king, tell him about this plan. 433 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 2: She said, I can't go in without the king. 434 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 1: Holding up his scepter. I could lose my life. 435 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 2: Her uncle said, if you remain silent, help for the 436 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 2: Jews will come from someone else. But who knows that 437 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 2: you were brought to this position for such a time 438 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 2: as this. He was saying esther, this is what you 439 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 2: were born for. This is your time to shine. Estra 440 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 2: got her courage up, went in to see the king. 441 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 2: She ended up saving the people of Israel. Who would 442 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 2: have thought God would have used this young girl, someone 443 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,360 Speaker 2: that was seen as insignificant, Yet we're talking about her 444 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 2: as one. 445 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 1: Of the heroes of faith. 446 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 2: All the odds were against her, but bad circumstances can't 447 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 2: stop good see. 448 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,400 Speaker 1: Can I tell you again? You are good seed. 449 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 2: You don't know the amazing things God has in store 450 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 2: for you. 451 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 1: Why don't you start. 452 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:11,679 Speaker 2: Seeing yourself the right way, set a focusing on what 453 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 2: you don't have, how big the obstacles are, the mistakes 454 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 2: you've made.
