I'll promise you we will make you feel 32 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 3: right at home. I like to start with something funny, 33 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 3: and I heard about this little girl. She asked her 34 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 3: mother how the human race got started. Her mother explained 35 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 3: how God created Adam and Eve and they had children 36 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 3: on and on. Here we are today. A few days later, 37 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 3: she asked her father the same question. He explained, how 38 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 3: many years ago there were monkeys, and little by little 39 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 3: they became more like people. Now here we are confused. 40 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 3: She went back to her mother, said, Mom, you said 41 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 3: God created people. Dad said we came from monkeys. How 42 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 3: can that be? She said, oh, honey, that's easy. I 43 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,839 Speaker 3: told you about my side of the family. Dad told 44 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 3: you about his say it like you mean it. This 45 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 3: is my Bible. I am what it says I am. 46 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 3: I have what it says I have. I can do 47 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 3: what it says I can do. Today I will be 48 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 3: taught the word of God. I boldly confess my mind 49 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 3: is alert, my heart is receptive. I will never be 50 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 3: the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want 51 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 3: to talk to you today about positioned for increase. We 52 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 3: all have to deal with things that come to an end. 53 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 3: We lost our main client, a friend we could always 54 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 3: count on is moving away, or a loved one went 55 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 3: to be with the Lord. We've seen God's blessing in 56 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 3: the past. We know we have his favor, but it 57 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 3: seems like that favor has been taken away. But God 58 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 3: will never remove something unless he has something better coming. 59 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 3: If he didn't stop certain things, we would never get 60 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 3: out of our comfort zone. We would stay with what's familiar. 61 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 3: So sometimes God will put an end to what doesn't 62 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 3: make sense to us. We don't understand why the friend 63 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 3: walked away, why the business pushed us out, why sales 64 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 3: aren't what they used to be. God is not doing 65 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 3: that to make your life more difficult. He's getting you 66 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 3: in position for increase. He had to stop what was working, 67 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 3: to force you to stretch so you could come in 68 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 3: to greater provision, greater opportunity. This is what happened with 69 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 3: the Israelites. They had been in slavery for many years 70 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 3: when God supernaturally brought them out. These two million people 71 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 3: headed into the desert toward the Promised Land. The problem 72 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 3: was there wasn't anything to eat out there, no way 73 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 3: to survive. So every morning God gave them something called mana. 74 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 3: It was like bread that formed on the ground. For 75 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 3: forty years, as they traveled the desert, one thing they 76 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:41,479 Speaker 3: could always count on was the manna. They had enemies 77 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 3: to fight, they had to overcome the heat, there were 78 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 3: snakes and scorpions, but every day, like clockwork, there was 79 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 3: the mana. They knew that was the hand of God 80 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 3: taking care of them. What they didn't realize was the 81 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 3: mana was only temporary provision. They were satisfied they had 82 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 3: something to eat, but God wasn't satisfied. He was taking 83 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 3: them into a land flowing with milk and honey, a 84 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 3: land filled with resources with plenty of food. When the 85 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:20,239 Speaker 3: Israelites got close to the Promised Land, something interesting happened. 86 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:25,239 Speaker 3: The scripture says the manna ceased and they never saw 87 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:30,359 Speaker 3: the mana again. Imagine what the people thought after forty 88 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 3: years of having mana over fourteen thousand mornings, they got 89 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 3: up and had breakfast at their tent. Now it was 90 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 3: nowhere to be found. I can hear them panicking, God, 91 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 3: what's happening? Why won't you provide for us anymore? They 92 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 3: would have lived off of mana the rest of their lives. 93 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 3: So God, on purpose stopped the mana. He said, from 94 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 3: now on, I want you to cook your own food. 95 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 3: Vision all around you. You don't need this manner to 96 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 3: sustain you. I'm bringing you into abundance. It's not a 97 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 3: coincidence that the man of stopped when they were about 98 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:16,599 Speaker 3: to go into the Promised Land. When something ceases in 99 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 3: your life, that's an indication that increase is coming. God 100 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 3: will never stop something unless he has greater provision on 101 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 3: the way. Maybe a friend walked away, a contract fell through, 102 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 3: you had a set back in your family. It's not 103 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,359 Speaker 3: as easy as it used to be. The man is 104 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 3: not coming. You're having to cook your own food. It's 105 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 3: because you're about to step in to a new level. 106 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 3: The manner. Drying up is a sign you were close 107 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 3: to your promised land. What you were satisfied with was 108 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 3: only temporary provision. You were blessed, life was good. But 109 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 3: God has so much more in store for you. He 110 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 3: had to cease the friendship. He had to move that 111 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 3: person away, not because they're not good, but they were 112 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 3: limiting you. They can't go where you're going. God had 113 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 3: to close the door so he can bring people into 114 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 3: your life that will push you into your purpose. Or 115 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 3: maybe that position you were counting on didn't work out. 116 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 3: You were hoping it would last, but it was not permanent. 117 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 3: It's because it was only temporary provision. God stopped the manna, 118 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 3: not because he's forgotten about you. He's about to take 119 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 3: you into your promised land. He ceased it for one reason, 120 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 3: to increase you, to take you where you couldn't go 121 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 3: on your own. But when things cease, it's easy to think, God, 122 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 3: where are you? Where is the manna? What's happening? It's 123 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 3: been this way for years. I'm counting on it. It's 124 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 3: tempting to live worried, think we're doing something than wrong. 125 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 3: We must have stepped out of God's favor. God wouldn't 126 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 3: have ceased it if he didn't have something better coming. 127 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 3: When that man of quits appearing, instead of being discouraged, 128 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 3: have a new perspective. You're on the verge of a 129 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 3: new level. That's an indication that walls are about to 130 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 3: come down. Giants are about to be defeated. You're about 131 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 3: to take new ground, see new levels, new opportunities. My 132 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 3: friend Tony Dungee played professional football for many years. After 133 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 3: a successful career, in nineteen ninety six, he landed his 134 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 3: first job as a head coach of the Tampa Bay 135 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 3: Buccaneers football team. Was a dream come true. He knew 136 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 3: it was the hand of God opening that door. For 137 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 3: six years, everything went great. They were winning more games, 138 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 3: making more progress. The mana was there every morning, the favor, 139 00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 3: the provision. But one day he was unaxc expectedly let go. 140 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 3: They fired him. He thought, God, I know you gave 141 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,959 Speaker 3: me this position. When the man of stops, that means 142 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 3: God is up to something. The question is, will you 143 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 3: get negative God, I can't believe this happened, this is 144 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 3: not fair. Or will you say God, I know you 145 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 3: wouldn't have closed this door unless you were about to 146 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 3: open a better door. So Lord, I thank you that 147 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 3: you're in control, that your plans for me are for good, 148 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 3: that what you started in my life you will finish. 149 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 3: The man of ceasing is a test. Many people get 150 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 3: bitter and give up on their dreams. You have to 151 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 3: understand the reason the man of stops, the reason doors close, 152 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 3: the reason people walk away, is you are close to 153 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 3: your promised land. That's God taking away. The temporary provision 154 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 3: may look permanent to us. We were satisfied, but God's 155 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 3: dream for your life is much bigger than your own. 156 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,959 Speaker 3: Coach Dungee was disappointed, but he didn't sit around in 157 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 3: self pity thinking about how bad life was. He knew 158 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 3: the same God that opened the door in Tampa Bay 159 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 3: had now closed the door. It wasn't long after he 160 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 3: was let go that he received a phone call from 161 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 3: the Indianapolis Colts football team. They said, we're looking for 162 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 3: a coach. Are you interested. Coach Dungee took the job. 163 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 3: He went on to win the Super Bowl with the Colts. 164 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 3: What looked like a great disappointment getting pushed out the 165 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 3: manner stopping was really a great blessing. Has something ceased 166 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:50,719 Speaker 3: in your life? You went through a disappointment, a door closed, 167 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 3: a person walked away. It's more difficult than it used 168 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 3: to be. The manna is not there. Every morning, God 169 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:01,199 Speaker 3: is saying, get ready, I'm I'm about to do something 170 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 3: that you've never seen. He didn't cease the provision because 171 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:11,199 Speaker 3: he's through with you. He stopped it because it's only temporary. 172 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 3: He's about to launch you into a new level. Now, 173 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 3: don't let it sour you. Why did this company do 174 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 3: me wrong? Why did these people leave me out? It 175 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 3: wasn't their choice. It was God closing the door. God 176 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 3: was moving them away. It was God stopping the mana. 177 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:33,319 Speaker 3: God told the Israelites, you don't need this manna anymore. 178 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 3: There's provision all around you. They were so close to 179 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 3: the promised land. There was all kinds of food available. 180 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 3: But if God had kept giving them manna, they would 181 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 3: have missed the abundance that belonged to them. When the 182 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 3: manna ceases in your life, like with them, you're so 183 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,959 Speaker 3: close to your promised land. The provision is already there. 184 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 3: Now you have to cook your own food. God's not 185 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 3: going to do this for you. You can't stay where 186 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 3: it's familiar, what you're used to, what's easy. You have 187 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 3: to stretch, get out of your comfort zone, take some 188 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 3: steps of faith. There is greatness in you. You weren't 189 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 3: created to live off a mana. Don't have a man 190 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 3: of mentality. Don't complain when something ceases in your life. 191 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 3: If it stopped, it wasn't supposed to be permanent. It's 192 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 3: just a step on the way to your destiny. The 193 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 3: Israelites had to accept not having any mana meant that 194 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 3: it was a new day and God was doing a 195 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 3: new thing. If they would have been sour because the 196 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 3: mana ceased, they would have never seen walls of Jericho 197 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 3: come down. They would have never conquered city after city 198 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 3: and lived in the land of abundance. Have you let 199 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 3: what ceased in your life cause you to be sour 200 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 3: or do you see it as a sign that you're 201 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 3: about to go into your promised land. When the manner ceases, 202 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 3: you have to dig down deep. This business may have 203 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 3: slowed down, but Lord, I want to thank you that 204 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 3: new doors are about to open. This person walked away. Lord, 205 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 3: thank you you have somebody better coming. This marriage is difficult, 206 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 3: but Lord, thank you. Peace, Joy restoration is on the way. 207 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 3: The closer the Israelites got to the Promised Land. The 208 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 3: less God did for them when they were in slavery. 209 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 3: God sent plagues on the Pharaoh. Israelites didn't have to 210 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 3: do anything. They just sat back and watched. God changed 211 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 3: the Pharaoh's mind. God parted the Red Sea. God drowned 212 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 3: their enemies in the desert. God gave them water out 213 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 3: of a rock. God gave them quell to eat on 214 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 3: and on. They saw the hand of God manna every morning. 215 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 3: But when they were about to go in to the 216 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 3: Promised Land, God said, now I want you to cook 217 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 3: your own food. I'll bring the walls down, but you 218 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 3: have to march around them seven times. I'll defeat your enemies, 219 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 3: but you have to go in and possess the land. 220 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 3: As they got closer, they had to grow up. God 221 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 3: expected them to stand on their own two feet to 222 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 3: encourage themselves to fight off the fear. He was saying, 223 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 3: the day is over when I'm going to bring you 224 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 3: the manner. The provision is all around. I brought you 225 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 3: this far. I fought all your battles. I gave you 226 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 3: breakfast every morning. But for this new level, to enter 227 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 3: into this place of abundance, you have to step up 228 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 3: with the promised Land comes a new level of responsibility. 229 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 3: Maybe in the past you've relied on other people to 230 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 3: keep you encouraged cheered up. God is going to be 231 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 3: again to wean those people away. At some point, that 232 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 3: manner is going to cease. Not because God doesn't love you, 233 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 3: but he wants you to stand on your own. You 234 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 3: can't become who you were created to be always depending 235 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 3: on somebody else. You don't need that crutch. Start encouraging 236 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 3: yourself all through the day. I am strong in the Lord. 237 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 3: Something good is going to happen to me. God being 238 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 3: for me is more than the world being against me. 239 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 3: To enter your promised Land, you have to cook your 240 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 3: own food. Some of the things God has done for 241 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 3: you in the past, having people there to encourage you, 242 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 3: causing everything to fall into place, that's not going to continue. 243 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 3: If God kept doing everything for us, we wouldn't see 244 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 3: the abundance all around. You may wonder why certain things 245 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 3: seem more difficult. Raising your children is not as easy 246 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 3: at work, It's more complicated in your finances. You're working 247 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 3: harder for the same income. Stay in courage, you're cooking 248 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 3: your own food. You're about to enter into your Promised Land. 249 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 3: That's when things will shift in your favor. That's when 250 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 3: you'll see increase promotion favor like you've never seen. But 251 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 3: we have to pass this test of not falling apart 252 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 3: when the manna ceases, when things are not coming as 253 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 3: easily as they used to. Take it as a compliment. 254 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 3: You're growing. God is saying, I don't have to keep 255 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 3: feeding you manna. I don't have to sustain you off 256 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 3: this temporary provision. You're getting stronger to where you can 257 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 3: handle the fullness of what I have in store. Before 258 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 3: the Israelites could enter the Promised Land, they had to 259 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 3: say goodbye to the familiar, goodbye to manna that they 260 00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 3: had had forty years. Imagine when it stopped coming. They 261 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 3: could have been discouraged, lost their passion. Instead, they said, fine, 262 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,439 Speaker 3: we'll go get our own food. They went out and 263 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 3: found all kinds of corn, grain, wheat, It was all available. 264 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 3: Some people never succeed because they're not willing to say 265 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 3: goodbye to the familiar, goodbye to a friendship that's holding 266 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 3: them back, goodbye to a job where they're not fulfilled, 267 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 3: or goodbye to old mindsets, to limited thinking. When the 268 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:37,360 Speaker 3: manner ceases. That friendship is not feeding you anymore. It's 269 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 3: just pulling you down, making you more negative. If you're 270 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 3: not willing to say goodbye, you'll miss your promised land. 271 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 3: When you know you're supposed to take a step of 272 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:52,639 Speaker 3: faith and teach that class, start your business, write that book, 273 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 3: move into that new neighborhood. Don't stay where it's comfortable. 274 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 3: You can't play it safe your whole life, and become 275 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 3: who you were created to be. God is the one 276 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 3: who put the desires in you. God is the one 277 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 3: that caused the manna to cease. It was good for 278 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 3: a season, but you weren't made to live off a manna. 279 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 3: You have to say goodbye to the familiar if you're 280 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,399 Speaker 3: going to keep moving forward. It doesn't mean that people 281 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,719 Speaker 3: are bad, but everyone is not supposed to be in 282 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 3: your life forever. And when God closes a door, the 283 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 3: longer we hold on, the more miserable we're going to be. 284 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 3: When the manna stops. For that certain position, you know 285 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 3: you're supposed to step up. You've got bigger things in you, 286 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:44,639 Speaker 3: but you're afraid. The problem is the grace for that 287 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 3: old position is not going to be there. God has 288 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 3: moved on the favor is waiting for you at your 289 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 3: next assignment. You have to stretch, get out of your 290 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 3: comfort zone. If you'll say goodbye to the familiar, you'll 291 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 3: see the new things that God has in store. This 292 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 3: is what I did. I worked behind the scenes here 293 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 3: at Lakewood for seventeen years. I thought that's what I 294 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 3: do the rest of my life. I was happy and fulfilled. 295 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 3: But in nineteen ninety nine my father went to be 296 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 3: with the Lord and everything changed for me. I knew 297 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 3: I was supposed to step up and pastor the church, 298 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:28,200 Speaker 3: but I liked being behind the scenes. I was comfortable, 299 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 3: didn't want to have to get out in front of people. 300 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 3: When my father was alive, it was easy, like with 301 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,959 Speaker 3: the children of Israel. The Manna came to me every morning. 302 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,640 Speaker 3: But when Daddy passed, it was like the Manna ceased. 303 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 3: He was gone. Nothing I could do to bring him back. 304 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 3: Sometimes God will close a door no matter how much 305 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 3: we don't like it. It's not going to reopen. The 306 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 3: good news is God never ceases the manna unless he 307 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 3: has greater provision coming. He never closes the door if 308 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:05,400 Speaker 3: he's not going to open up another door. But too 309 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 3: often we're trying to hold on to old manna, old friendships, 310 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 3: old attitudes, old positions. When God ceases that manna, it 311 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,359 Speaker 3: means he's about to do a new thing. You have 312 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 3: to let go of the old. What's interesting is the 313 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:26,680 Speaker 3: manna God gave the Israelites was only good for one day. 314 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:29,919 Speaker 3: They could gather up enough for three or four days, 315 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 3: but in twenty four hours it would spoil. It wouldn't last. 316 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 3: When we try to hold on to old manna, what 317 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 3: God used to do a friendship that was good for 318 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 3: a season, but not now, a job where we're not fulfilled. 319 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:50,199 Speaker 3: All that manna is spoiled. You're not growing, it's not 320 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:54,919 Speaker 3: feeding you anymore. Maybe in your career, what used to 321 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 3: challenge you doesn't challenge you anymore. You hear God telling 322 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:02,439 Speaker 3: you to stretch, to take steps of faith. You wonder 323 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 3: why you're not fulfilled, why you're not growing. It's because 324 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 3: that manna is old. God has freshness, He's a god 325 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 3: of new beginnings. Yes, the manna was fine for a season. 326 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 3: It brought you to the Promised Land. It sustained you 327 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 3: while you were learning. But at some point the manna 328 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 3: is going to cease. That's when you have to prepare 329 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 3: your own food. You have to step up to who 330 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 3: you were created to be. When my father passed, I 331 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 3: was afraid, but I did what I'm asking you to do. 332 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 3: I got out of my comfort zone. I said goodbye 333 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 3: to the familiar. I stepped up to pastor the church. 334 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 3: God has taken me further than I ever imagined. But 335 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 3: had my father not gone to be with the Lord, 336 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 3: had that manna not ceased, I would have never made 337 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 3: it into my promised land. You don't have to lose 338 00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 3: a loved one, but there will be times that God 339 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 3: ceases good things in your life. You don't feel like 340 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 3: you have the favor that you used to stay in courage. 341 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 3: That means you're about to step up to a new level. 342 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:16,639 Speaker 3: God is taking you from glory to glory. What you 343 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 3: were satisfied with was one level of glory. It was 344 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:24,199 Speaker 3: just temporary provision. God's about to take it to a 345 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 3: new level of glory where you see favor and increase 346 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 3: like you've never seen. God told the prophet Elijah to 347 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,400 Speaker 3: go down to the brook Cherith and the ravens would 348 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 3: feed him there. Elijah arrived at the brook, he had provision. 349 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 3: Week after week he didn't have to go get the food. 350 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 3: Every day like clockwork, the ravens came to him. He 351 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 3: had home delivery before Domino's. I'm sure he thought, it 352 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,639 Speaker 3: doesn't get any better than this. God, you treat me 353 00:22:55,720 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 3: so good. For months, the ravens kept coming. He was blessed. 354 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 3: He knew God's favor was on him. He was comfortable. 355 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 3: But one day the brook dried up and the ravens 356 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,919 Speaker 3: quit coming. God said, Elijah, now I want you to 357 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 3: go to the city of Zero Path. I have a 358 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 3: widow that's going to take care of you. Elijah could 359 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,200 Speaker 3: have thought that couldn't be God. He's blessed me here. 360 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 3: I've seen his favor. I almost stay where I am. 361 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 3: He could have held on to the old The problem 362 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 3: is the brook dried up, the ravens quit coming. Why 363 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:36,679 Speaker 3: it was temporary provision. Elijah went to the city of 364 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 3: Zero Path. That's where his ministry began. He saw some 365 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 3: of the greatest miracles ever recorded in the scripture. It's 366 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 3: not a coincidence that it happened after the brook dried up, 367 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 3: after the man has ceased, when it looked like he 368 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 3: didn't have God's favor and blessing like he used to. Actually, 369 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,640 Speaker 3: that was a sign he was about to step in 370 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 3: to a new level of his destiny. Are you discouraged 371 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 3: because the brook dried up? Are you frustrated because the 372 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 3: man is ceased? Things are not happening like they used to. 373 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:18,200 Speaker 3: What you don't realize is God is positioning you for increase. 374 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 3: It looks like a setback, but really it's a setup. 375 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:26,159 Speaker 3: He's about to do something that you've never seen. The 376 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 3: brook drying up is not the end. It's a sign 377 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 3: that greater provision is coming, greater opportunity, greater influence. Don't 378 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 3: complain about the brook. Get ready for the new things 379 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 3: God is about to do. Thank him. When you don't 380 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:47,159 Speaker 3: see any sign of water, keep believing even when the 381 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 3: door's closed, Keep stretching, doing the right thing. The brook 382 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,399 Speaker 3: may have dried up, but what you can't see is 383 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 3: a flood of God's favor is headed your way. In 384 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 3: two thousand and six, a friend of mine had a 385 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:05,919 Speaker 3: dream to put the Bible on computer. He developed a 386 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 3: website where the Bible was available and you could write 387 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 3: notes out to the side. Like a traditional print Bible. 388 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,399 Speaker 3: You could pull out passages and send to other people. 389 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 3: A lot of features that had not been available. He 390 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 3: thought it was a good idea, but the first month 391 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 3: only twenty thousand people visited the site. And that was fine, 392 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:29,880 Speaker 3: but they were hoping for a lot more and there 393 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 3: was very little engagement. He and his team has spent 394 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 3: a lot of time and money. After a year, they 395 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,360 Speaker 3: were ready to shut it down. It wasn't worth the effort. 396 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 3: Two weeks before they pulled the plug, he had another idea. 397 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 3: What if instead of making a website with the Bible, 398 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 3: they made the Bible available on a mobile phone. That way, 399 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,119 Speaker 3: everybody would have the Bible where they went. He was 400 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:00,400 Speaker 3: a little concerned about how such a big book could 401 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 3: fit on a tiny screen, but something on the inside 402 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 3: felt right. Two thousand and eight, he and his team 403 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:12,639 Speaker 3: designed and built a mobile website for the Bible. Not 404 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 3: long after that, Apple announced the opportunity to develop what 405 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:21,879 Speaker 3: we now know are apps for our phone. My friend 406 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 3: submitted his app. It was approved and available the first 407 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 3: day the app store launched on Apple. They were hoping 408 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,680 Speaker 3: for eighty thousand downloads the first year, but in three 409 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 3: days they had eighty three thousand downloads. Today, the U 410 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 3: version Bible app, developed by my friend Bobby Gruenwald has 411 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 3: been downloaded on over four hundred million phones in every 412 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 3: country of the world. What's interesting is the success came 413 00:26:56,200 --> 00:27:00,200 Speaker 3: after the brook dried up, after the man ceased, when 414 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 3: Bobby was tempted to give up. Sometimes God will shut 415 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:08,439 Speaker 3: the door to push us into our promised land. He 416 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 3: ceases the manna because it's only temporary provision. Yes, it 417 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 3: could sustain us, but what God has in mind is 418 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 3: much bigger, much better. Now, maybe the Manna has ceased 419 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 3: in some area of your life. You're tempted to give 420 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:29,160 Speaker 3: up on a dream, lose your passion. Like with him, 421 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 3: it means greater provision is coming. The brook drying up 422 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:38,200 Speaker 3: is God getting you in position for something that you've 423 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 3: never seen. Now, this is not the time to get discouraged. 424 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 3: This is the time to get ready, stir your faith up. 425 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:49,360 Speaker 3: You are close to your promised land. If you will 426 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 3: do this, I believe and declare like Elijah, like with Bobby, 427 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,920 Speaker 3: doors are about to open that no man can shut 428 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:03,679 Speaker 3: new opportunities. Favor motion, healing the fullness of your destiny 429 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 3: in Jesus's name, And if you receive it, can you 430 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:12,119 Speaker 3: say amen? Today I'd like to give you an opportunity 431 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 3: to make Jesus the Lord of your life. Would you 432 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:20,240 Speaker 3: pray with me? Just say, Lord Jesus, I'll repent of 433 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:25,159 Speaker 3: my sins. Come into my heart. I'll make you my 434 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 3: Lord and savior. If you prayed that simple prayer, we 435 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 3: believe you got born again.
