She was trying to explain to 11 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 1: her students about self esteem. She said to her class, 12 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 1: anyone who feels like you're dumb, please stand up. She 13 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 1: didn't think anyone would stand, and she'd make the simple 14 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 1: point how nobody is dumb. About that time, little Johnny 15 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 1: stood up, she thought, oh no, Now what am I 16 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 1: going to do? She said, Now, Johnny, do you really 17 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: feel like you're dumb? He said no, ma'am. I just 18 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: hate to see you standing there all by yourself. Say 19 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,279 Speaker 1: it like you mean it. This is my Bible. I 20 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 1: am what it says, I am, I have what it 21 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 1: says I have I can do what it says I 22 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 1: can do. Today, I will be taught the word of God. 23 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:15,199 Speaker 1: I boldly confess. My mind is alert, my heart is receptive. 24 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 1: I will never be the same. In Jesus' name, God 25 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: bless you. I want to talk to you today about 26 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: the chain breaker. We all have forces that are trying 27 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: to hold us back. We wonder why we can't get ahead, 28 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 1: why we can't break an addiction, why we can't control 29 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 1: our temper. Those are chains that are restricting us. Chains 30 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: of guilt, beating ourselves up for past mistakes, chains of 31 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 1: depression that dark cloud follows us around, or chains of 32 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: low self esteem. We never feel good about ourselves. That 33 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 1: recording is constantly playing You're not attractive enough, You're not talented, 34 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: you don't have a good personality. You were not created 35 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: to live bound bound by loneliness, bound by shame, bound 36 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: by negative words that were spoken over you. The good 37 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: news is our God is a chain breaker. You may 38 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,959 Speaker 1: not see how it can happen. Your circumstances look permanent 39 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 1: or get ready. The chain breaker is about to show up. 40 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: That chain of loneliness is being broken. You're going to 41 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 1: meet a divine connection. Somebody better than you've imagined. That 42 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 1: chain of injustice, bad breaks, always being overlooked. It's being broken. 43 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: God is about to pay you back. He's going to 44 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 1: make up for the wrongs that were done, or that 45 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: chain of lack, struggle, not having enough. It's being loosed. 46 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: Opportunity is going to chase you down. You're not going 47 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: to have to go after it. It's going to come 48 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: after you. Why the chains came off. You're being released 49 00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: into favor, released into healing, release into new levels. Luke thirteen. 50 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: Jesus was teaching in the synagogue and he saw a 51 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: lady that had been sick for eighteen years. She has 52 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 1: been over and not able to stand up straight. It 53 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: was the Sabbath. You weren't supposed to do any kind 54 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: of work. The religious leaders were watching to see what 55 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: Jesus was going to do. He said something interesting in 56 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: verse sixteen. Should not this woman, whom Satan has bound 57 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: for eighteen years, be loosed from her sickness. He described 58 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: the sickness as a chain. He said she was bound. 59 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: Jesus touched the lady and instantly she was healed. Whatever 60 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: has you bound, whatever is restricting you, God is saying, 61 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: this is your time. To be free. It is not 62 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: your destiny to go through life with things limiting you. 63 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: If you will receive this into your spirit, I believe 64 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: that every change that is holding you back is being broken. 65 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: Chains of sickness, chains of depression, even chains that have 66 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 1: been in your family line for generations. Now you may 67 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 1: not feel any different. The circumstances look the same. This 68 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: is what faith is all about. Said of thinking, Ah, man, 69 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: it didn't work for me. No, turn it around. Father, 70 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 1: Thank you that my chains are gone. Thank you that 71 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: I am free. Thank you that every force that's holding 72 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: me back has been broken. Get in agreement with God. 73 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,559 Speaker 1: Freedom starts in your mind. As long as you think 74 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: I'll never get well. Did you see the medical report? 75 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 1: Or my grandmother was depressed? My mother was depressed. I 76 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 1: guess I'll always be depressed. Know the difference with you 77 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 1: is the chain breaker showed up. God set you free. 78 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: You're the one to set a new standard. You're the 79 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 1: one to defy the odds. God told the Israelites the 80 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: enemies you see today, you will see no more. Those 81 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: things that have held you back, You're not going to 82 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 1: see them anymore. This is a new day of freedom, 83 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: a new day of wholeness. I can see through my 84 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:16,359 Speaker 1: eyes of faith, change coming off. Chains of debt being broken, 85 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: chains of cancer, diabetes, heart trouble being loose, chains of fear, low, 86 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 1: self esteem, depression, You will see them no more. Is 87 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: there something limiting you today? Why don't you have this 88 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: new perspective? My chains are gone. I've been loosed. Start 89 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 1: living from a freedom mindset, not a bound mindset. Not 90 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 1: I'll never get ahead, Joel, I never get any good breaks. 91 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,159 Speaker 1: That was the past. This is a new day. I've 92 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: been released into increase. I've been released into favor, released 93 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: into blessings instead of I'll have to deal with this 94 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 1: addiction my whole life. I've had it so long. No, 95 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: that chain that's held me has been broken. I'm on 96 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: my way to healing. I'm on my way to feeling 97 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: better than ever. Now. Just because you're free doesn't mean 98 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: everything is instantly going to change. You're going to have 99 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: to walk this out. But what you'll find is you're 100 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: not going to be restricted like you were before. You're 101 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 1: going to be able to do things that you couldn't do. 102 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: The guilt is not going to hold you back. The depression, 103 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: the hot temper, the addiction. It is not going to 104 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:33,919 Speaker 1: control your life. Why the chain has been broken. This 105 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: lady that came to Jesus had been sick so long, 106 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: been over for eighteen years. I'm sure she thought it 107 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 1: was permanent. But Jesus said, should not this woman, being 108 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: a daughter of Abraham, be loose from her sickness? A 109 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 1: daughter of Abraham meant she was a part of the 110 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: covenant that God made with Abraham. She wasn't just any woman. 111 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 1: She had rights and privileges because she was in the 112 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: family line of Abraham. Like her, you're not just anyone. 113 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: You are a child of the Most High God. If 114 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: Jesus were here today, he would look at you and say, 115 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: should not this son, should not this daughter of the 116 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: Most High God? Be free from their sickness, free from 117 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: their addiction, free from that depression. You have rights because 118 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: of who you belong to. You may have struggled in 119 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: an area for a long time, But like with her, 120 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: it is not permanent. Your day of freedom is here. 121 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: The chain breaker is at work. Jesus said in verse twelve, woman, 122 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: you are loosed from your sickness. God is saying that 123 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: to you. You are loosed from whatever is holding you back. 124 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: Maybe you've been barn for years, not able to have 125 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: a child. You are being loosed from that barrenness. A 126 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: healthy is on the way. Or you pursued your dreams. 127 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: You've done your best, but doors keep closing. It's one 128 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: disappointment after another. Nobody will help you. Now you're tempted 129 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: to accept that it's not going to happen. You are 130 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: being loosed from what's restricted you. Now do your part 131 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: and try again. You're going to see doors open that 132 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: you couldn't open. People are going to go out of 133 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: their way to help you. Things are going to fall 134 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: into place. And yes, we have forces trying to stop us. 135 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,719 Speaker 1: But the forces that are for you are greater than 136 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: the forces that are against you. No chain is too 137 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: much for our God, no addiction too great, no sickness 138 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 1: too big, no enemy too powerful. God controls the universe, 139 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,679 Speaker 1: he said in Jeremiah, I will tear off their chains, 140 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: and they will no more be enslain. If God doesn't 141 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: break the chain, He'll simply tear the whole thing off, 142 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,959 Speaker 1: and said you can run through a troop or leap 143 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 1: over a wall. If God doesn't remove the obstacle, don't worry. 144 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: He'll take you over it. He knows how to get 145 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 1: you to your destiny. I believe, even right now some 146 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 1: chains are being torn off. What's held you back is 147 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 1: not going to enslave you anymore. Acts, Chapter twelve. King 148 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 1: Herod had Peter arrested and put in prison. The night 149 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 1: before Peter was to go on trial. He was sleeping 150 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 1: chained between two prisoners. There were guards outside his cell 151 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 1: and two sets of big iron gates. A group of 152 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 1: believers had gathered at a house to pray for Peter. 153 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: Herod had already put to death the apostle James. It 154 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: looked like Peter would be next. But in the middle 155 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: of the night, while they were praying, an angel showed 156 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: up in the prison. He had to wake Peter up. 157 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: He told him to get dressed. They were about to leave. Instantly, 158 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 1: the chains fell off of Peter's wrist. The prison doors opened. 159 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: The guard's eyes were blinded. They walked through the first 160 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:13,079 Speaker 1: set of gates and then through the second. Peter went 161 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,319 Speaker 1: to the house where everyone was praying. When they saw him, 162 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 1: they couldn't believe it, They said, Peter, what happened? He 163 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 1: couldn't explain it. He said, I don't know. I was 164 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,559 Speaker 1: sleeping when an angel woke me up, and suddenly the 165 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: chains fell off my wrist. They asked, did the angel 166 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,559 Speaker 1: unloose them? Did he get the key from the jailer? 167 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 1: Did he pull the chains out of the wall. Peter 168 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: said no, they just opened by themselves, and I was 169 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: able to walk out. God has these times where you're 170 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: not going to be able to explain how it happened. 171 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: You got well when the medical report says you wouldn't. 172 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:56,079 Speaker 1: You broke the addiction without the treatment. You paid your 173 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 1: house off when it should have taken you fifteen more years. 174 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: Change are going to come off that don't make sense. 175 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: There's no explanation. Suddenly you're catapulted to a new level, 176 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: Suddenly you meet the person of your dreams. Like Peter, 177 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: you are just minding your own business, being your best 178 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: on their own accord. Change are going to fall off now. 179 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 1: The circumstances may say it's permanent, it's never going to change, 180 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 1: no sign of it improving. But I found God is 181 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: full of surprises. He'll show up when you least expect it, 182 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: when the odds are against you more than ever, the 183 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: obstacle looks too big. Suddenly, out of nowhere, God will 184 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 1: turn it around. It's not going to be just your talent, 185 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: your determination, your strength, and sure we should do our part, 186 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: but some things we can't make happen in our own ability. 187 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 1: And when you come to the end of what you 188 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: can do where it doesn't look like it's going to 189 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 1: work out, Peter, so to speak, you're in chains, in 190 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 1: jail guards outside in the natural. It's impossible. That's when 191 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: the chain breaker is going to show up and do 192 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 1: the impossible. Now, quit telling yourself that you're stuck. You'll 193 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: always have the illness, you'll always have to fight the addiction, 194 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: you'll always be lonely. Those chains are not your destiny. 195 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: What's holding you back does not have the final say. 196 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: The chain breaker, the most tied God is working in 197 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: your life right now. He's about to shift things in 198 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: your favor. You are not going to be a slave 199 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: to sickness, a slave to depression, a slave to fear. 200 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,680 Speaker 1: And see, most of us know God as a savior, 201 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,839 Speaker 1: we know him as the good shepherd, but we need 202 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 1: to know him as the chain breaker, as the God 203 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 1: who looses us from bondages. It's interesting that people were 204 00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: praying for Peter when the angel showed up and the 205 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 1: chains fell off. You may have children that are off course, friends, 206 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 1: family members that are not making good decisions, running with 207 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 1: the wrong crowd. Keep praying for them. They may not 208 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: deserve it. They brought the trouble on themselves, but God 209 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: is so merciful. Because of your prayers, he will loose 210 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: their chains. You can stand in the gap for somebody 211 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: else that's bound, that's friend that's struggling with an addiction. 212 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,439 Speaker 1: Instead of judging them, why don't you start praying for them. 213 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 1: That coworker that's got a sour attitude. Instead of criticizing, 214 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: start praying. Your prayer can be the catalyst that causes 215 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 1: chains to suddenly fall off. I talked to a young 216 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 1: lady that had struggled with the drug addiction since high school. 217 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 1: She was an excellent student, very bright, but she got 218 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,960 Speaker 1: off course and life took her down a dark path. 219 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,200 Speaker 1: Her mother had just died and she was going to 220 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: a divorce, and she didn't think she could go on. 221 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 1: She'd gone to rehab several times with no success. The 222 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: temptation was so strong she would always fall back. After 223 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: being addicted for twenty one years, On the day she 224 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 1: buried her mother, She got down on her knees and said, God, 225 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 1: I can't do this on my own. Help me to change. 226 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: From that day forward, she never touched another drug. She 227 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: never touched the alcohol. She didn't have any kind of 228 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: withdrawal symptoms. She said, Joel, I can't explain it, but 229 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, I didn't have any desire for 230 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 1: the drugs like Peter, those chains just fell off of her. 231 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: Imagine what you could become without the change that are 232 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: limiting you. What could you accomplish without the chain of fear, 233 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 1: the chain of insecurity? What kind of relationship could you 234 00:14:56,480 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: have without the chain of guilt, anger, feeling wrang about yourself? 235 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: Or how high could you go without that chain of 236 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 1: negative words spoken over you, people telling you that you're 237 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: not going to be successful, that you don't have what 238 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: it takes. It's time to step into your freedom. Your 239 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 1: destiny is too important, your assignment is too great for 240 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 1: you to go through life bound. Why don't you do? 241 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 1: Like her? Say, God, help me to change. Help me 242 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: to release this anger and forgive the people that have 243 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 1: hurt me. Help me to accomplish my dreams and leave 244 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: my children better than they were before. Help me to 245 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 1: break these bad habits and live free and whole. Listen, 246 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 1: if you'll do your part, God will do his part. 247 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: He will make things happen that you couldn't make happen. 248 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 1: In the scripture, another word for chain was yoke. A 249 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: yoke was something they put around the neck of an oxen, 250 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: like a bridle, to help control the animal. This yoke 251 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 1: kept the animal from doing what it wanted. It was 252 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: a constant burden. Even though the animal was much bigger, 253 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 1: much more powerful, this small yoke would restrict it. Many 254 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: people don't realize they are living with a yoke around them. 255 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: Some of these yokes have been passed down to us. 256 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 1: Our parents had addictions, and now we have those addictions. 257 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: Our relatives had low self esteem. They were angry, they 258 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: were bitter, they never got good breaks. Now we struggle 259 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 1: in those same areas. If we're not careful, it will 260 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: become normal to us. It's all we've known. It's normal 261 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: to have bad relationships. It's normal to be hot tempered, 262 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: it's normal to be angry. They're never get good breaks friends. 263 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: That is not normal. That is a yoke. That is 264 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: a chain. It is limiting your movement, it's restricting your ability. 265 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: You are made in the image of Almighty God. He 266 00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: has crowned you with favor. He put seeds of greatness 267 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 1: on the inside. You were not made to go through 268 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:08,199 Speaker 1: life just barely making it. He created you to be free, 269 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: to be happy, to accomplish your dreams, not to be mediocre, 270 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: but to excel, to leave your mark on this generation. 271 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 1: Don't let a yoke become normal. Don't learn to function 272 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: in your dysfunction. This is what the Israelites did. They 273 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,639 Speaker 1: had been in slavery for four hundred years. All they 274 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 1: had known was being mistreated injustice, barely making it. God 275 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 1: brought them out and they were headed toward the Promised Land. 276 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: Everything looked great. The problem was they were still wearing 277 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: that yoke. Even though they were free. They had a 278 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: defeated mindset. When they faced the Assyrian army. Instead of 279 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: knowing that God would give them the victory, they thought, Oh, man, 280 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 1: here we go again, another struggle, another heart ache. This 281 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 1: is the way it's always going to be. God said 282 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 1: to them in Isaiah. This burden is being lifted off 283 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:09,200 Speaker 1: of your shoulders. This yoke is being removed from your neck, 284 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:13,920 Speaker 1: and the yoke will be destroyed. God was saying, this 285 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 1: is a new day. You are not going to constantly struggle. 286 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: You are not going to live defeated, burdened down. I 287 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: am removing that yoke. From that day forward, they stepped 288 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 1: into a new level of their destiny. What they used 289 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:33,159 Speaker 1: to struggle with wasn't a struggle anymore. That burden to 290 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 1: overcome enemies and pressure to defeat other armies, it was 291 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 1: lifted off of them. They defeated armies that were much 292 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 1: bigger and more powerful than them. God is saying to 293 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 1: you what he said to them. You have struggled long enough. 294 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: You have dealt with that addiction long enough. You've been 295 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 1: weighed down by family baggage long enough. I am taking 296 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: away that burden. I am not only going to remove 297 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: the I'm going to destroy the yoke. That means it's 298 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 1: not going to come back. That depression is not going 299 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: to hinder you the rest of your life. That addiction 300 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 1: that keeps getting passed down is broken. That sickness that 301 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 1: looks like it's going to be the end of you. No, 302 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,679 Speaker 1: this is a new day. The yoke has been destroyed, 303 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 1: The burden has been lifted. Now what you struggle with 304 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 1: may not have started with you. It was passed down. 305 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: The good news is it can end with you. You can 306 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 1: be the difference maker. And this is what my father did. 307 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 1: He was raised during the Great Depression and his family 308 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 1: lost everything. He grew up very poor. From his earliest memories, 309 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 1: all he knew was poverty, not having enough food, He 310 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 1: could never drink a full glass of milk. Being poor 311 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,680 Speaker 1: and defeated was normal to him. He was wearing that yoke. 312 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: But at the age of seventeen, Daddy gave his life 313 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: to cris Something came alive on the inside. The chain 314 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: breaker showed up. He said, Joel, I made a decision 315 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 1: that day that my children would never be raised in 316 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 1: the poverty that I was raised in. Now nothing had 317 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 1: changed on the outside. It wasn't like he got a 318 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 1: big job, a big promotion. He had no money, no education. 319 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 1: But on the inside, in his mind, changs were broken. 320 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 1: That yoke that had been around his family for generations 321 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 1: was destroyed. His family told him, John, you better stay 322 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 1: here on the farm with us, pick cotton. This is 323 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 1: all you know how to do. They couldn't understand why 324 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 1: he'd want to leave. They didn't think he would make it. 325 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 1: My father went on to pastor great churches and touch 326 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:51,119 Speaker 1: people all over the world. It would have never happened 327 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,440 Speaker 1: if he had not gotten that yoke off of his neck. 328 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 1: God has freed you, but you have to do your 329 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: part and take off the yoke it's in your thinking. 330 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 1: Quit telling yourself that you can't have good relationships. You've 331 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:10,399 Speaker 1: been hurt too much. You can't accomplish your dreams. You 332 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 1: don't have the talent. You can't break the addiction. Everyone 333 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,879 Speaker 1: in your family has it. Those are lies trying to 334 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:22,160 Speaker 1: keep you from your destiny. The yoke has been destroyed. 335 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 1: The chain has been broken. God is releasing you to 336 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,479 Speaker 1: go where no one in your family has gone. You 337 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:34,520 Speaker 1: are going to break bad habits that nobody else was 338 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:38,639 Speaker 1: able to break. You are going to accomplish dreams bigger 339 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: than you've imagined. Talent is going to come out of 340 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:45,239 Speaker 1: you that you didn't know you had. Those addictions that 341 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 1: keep getting passed down are broken. The depression is coming 342 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 1: to an end. The low self esteem is over. God 343 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:57,199 Speaker 1: is not only breaking chains, He's about to catapult you 344 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: to a new level. He is going to give you faith, faver, respect, 345 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 1: influence in ways like you've never seen. Well. Joel you're 346 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: just getting people's hopes up. You can't have faith if 347 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 1: you don't first have hope. Listen to what Jesus said. 348 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 1: The spirit of the Lord is on me to announce 349 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 1: deliverance to the captives, freedom to those that are bound. 350 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 1: That's what I'm doing, announcing freedom, announcing that yolkes have 351 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: been destroyed, announcing that chains have been broken. Now it's 352 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 1: up to you to receive this. You have to know 353 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 1: that what's been limiting you has been taken away. What's 354 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 1: been hindering your progress has been removed. Now get ready 355 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: for favor in new ways. Get ready for God to 356 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: surprise you, to make things happen that you didn't see coming. 357 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 1: And here's the key. God is not only breaking chains 358 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:57,639 Speaker 1: that holds you back, but he is breaking chains that 359 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: are holding back what belongs to you. There are blessings 360 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:08,360 Speaker 1: that have your name on them, promotion, a healing, a business, 361 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 1: that baby you've been praying for. God's about to release 362 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 1: what's been held up. In the scripture, Daniel prayed and 363 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 1: asked God for something. Nothing happened. Day after day went by, 364 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 1: no sign of it. Three weeks later, an angel showed 365 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 1: up with the answer. Daniel asked what took him so long. 366 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: The angel said, the moment you prayed, God sent me 367 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 1: with the answer. But there were forces blocking my way. 368 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 1: God had to send another angel to help fight through 369 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:44,400 Speaker 1: on the opposition. In the same way, there are forces 370 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 1: trying to hold back what you're believing for your dream, 371 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 1: your healing, the restoration, staying, courage. It is on the way. 372 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: Those forces that are holding it back. Just imagine right now, 373 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:01,879 Speaker 1: God breaking the chains, God making that path clear. What 374 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,400 Speaker 1: has your name on it is on the way. All 375 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 1: the forces of darkness cannot stop what God has promised you. 376 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: I heard a story about a dog that lived out 377 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: in the country. He'd been on a leash his whole life, 378 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 1: about thirty feet long, tied to a tree, and other 379 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 1: dogs would come by and he'd take off running to 380 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 1: the end of that leash and bark and bark, and 381 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: he wanted to go play with them and run out 382 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,679 Speaker 1: through the fields, but he couldn't do it. He was 383 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 1: on a chain. This went on for years. One day 384 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,879 Speaker 1: his owner felt sorry for him and decided to let 385 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:40,479 Speaker 1: him run free like the other dogs. But instead of 386 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 1: taking the whole leash off, he just unfastened the dog's 387 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: collar around his neck. He stepped back and waited for 388 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 1: the dog to take off. Another dog came trotting by, 389 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 1: and the owner thought, all right, here he goes, and 390 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: his dog got up took off running, But when he 391 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: came to the end of the leash, he stopped where 392 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: he always did. A few minutes later, a cat came by. 393 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 1: This cat had tormented the dog his whole life. The 394 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: dog wanted to get him so badly, but the cat 395 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: knew just where to walk outside the dog's range. The 396 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 1: dog got up, took off running. Once again, he stopped 397 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 1: where he always did. What was the problem. The dog 398 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:24,680 Speaker 1: was free, he just didn't know it. He still felt 399 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: the collar, he still heard the chain. All he had 400 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 1: to do was go a little bit further than he 401 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 1: normally did, and that collar would have come off and 402 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,399 Speaker 1: he would have realized he was free. My challenge to 403 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 1: you today is, don't be like this dog. Your collar 404 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 1: has been loosed, your chains have been broken, those yokes 405 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: have been destroyed. Now do your part and walk out 406 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 1: of it. Start thinking like you're free, talking like you're free, 407 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 1: acting like you're free. Go a little bit further than 408 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 1: you used to. It may not have worked out last time. 409 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 1: But this is a new day. Your collar has been loose. 410 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 1: If you'll do this, I believe and declare you're about 411 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 1: to step into a new sense of freedom. What has 412 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 1: hindered you in the past will hinder you no more. 413 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 1: The chain breaker, the most tigh God, is releasing you 414 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 1: right now into freedom, into healing, into new levels, into 415 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 1: the fullness of your destiny. In Jesus' name, And if 416 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 1: you receive it, can you say amen? Today I'd like 417 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 1: to give you an opportunity to make Jesus the lord 418 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 1: of your life. Would you pray with me? Just say, Lord, Jesus, 419 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 1: I repent of my sins. Come into my heart. I'll 420 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 1: make you my Lord and savior. Friends, if you prayed 421 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 1: that simple prayer, we believe you got born again. Get 422 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:56,719 Speaker 1: in a good Bible based church, and keep God first place. 423 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 1: This is my Bible. I am what it says, I am. 424 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,439 Speaker 1: I have what it says I have. I can do this. 425 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,400 Speaker 1: As the first Bible that my parents gave me I 426 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,399 Speaker 1: was six years old. They taught me the importance of 427 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: believing what God says about you and letting that determine 428 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 1: your self image. How through the scripture you can learn 429 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 1: to handle challenges and pursue your dreams. Some people tell 430 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,199 Speaker 1: me that the Bible's not practical for them. How they 431 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: don't understand it. We've created a new resource called how 432 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 1: to Read Your Bible and Enjoy It. It provides twelve 433 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,639 Speaker 1: distinct lenses that will help you see the Bible with 434 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 1: fresh eyes, so you can discover the hidden treasures that 435 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,639 Speaker 1: increase your faith, practical truths that will help you in 436 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 1: your everyday life. When you tap into the power of 437 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: God's Word, there's no limit to where He'll take you. 438 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,879 Speaker 2: As our way of saying thank you for your gift 439 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 2: of any size to the ministry this month, Joel would 440 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 2: like to send you this inspiring new resource.

But now with this new resource, 443 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,680 Speaker 2: how to Read your Bible and Enjoy It, it will 444 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 2: make the Word of God come alive in new ways. 445 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:14,680 Speaker 2: You'll discover fresh inspiration on every page of your Bible. 446 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 2: The twelve lenses give you the power to see the 447 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,719 Speaker 2: Scripture in a whole new light. When you experience the 448 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 2: right way to approach God's Word, it will ignite renewed 449 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:26,520 Speaker 2: passion in your life. 450 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,719 Speaker 1: When you get God's word down in you, it brings 451 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 1: life and victory.
