I like to start with 15 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 1: something funny and I heard about this husband and wife. 16 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 1: They'd been arguing for a long time about who should 17 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,199 Speaker 1: make the coffee in the morning. The husband thought it 18 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,520 Speaker 1: was the wife's job, but she just didn't agree. After 19 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 1: several heated debates, she finally told him, I can prove 20 00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: it to you from the Bible that it's the men's 21 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 1: job to make the coffee. He said, what are you 22 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: talking about There's nothing in the Bible about the man 23 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,400 Speaker 1: making the coffee. She said, sure, there is. She opened 24 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 1: the Bible and turned to the Book of Hebrews. Say 25 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: it like you mean it. This is my Bible. I 26 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 1: am what it says. I am. I have what it 27 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,399 Speaker 1: says I have. I can do what it says I 28 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,759 Speaker 1: can do. Today I will be taught the word of God. 29 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:28,320 Speaker 1: I boldly confess. My mind is alert, my heart is receptive. 30 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: I will never be the same. In Jesus' name, God 31 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 1: bless you. I want to talk to you today about 32 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,680 Speaker 1: who do you say you are? There are a lot 33 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: of voices in life trying to define us and tell 34 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,680 Speaker 1: us who we are. Sometimes they're uplifting, a parent telling 35 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: us that we're talented, we can do great things. Other 36 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: Times they're negative. You're not attractive, there's nothing special about you. 37 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: Our own thoughts will try to label us. You've made 38 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: too many mistakes, you miss your chance. When you listen 39 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: to all these voices, it's easy to think who's telling 40 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 1: the truth. Who am i? Am I talented or am 41 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: I ordinary? Am I strong and confident? Or am I 42 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: weak and insecure? Do I have a bright future or 43 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: have a blown it. Here's the key. The only voice 44 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: that matters is your voice. Who do you say you are? 45 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: What you choose is what you will become. And instead 46 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 1: of letting people define you, instead of letting circumstances label you, 47 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 1: you need to go back to what God said about you. 48 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: God says you can do all things through Christ, you're 49 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: equipped and empowered. Other voices will tell you the problems 50 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: too big, you don't have what it takes. Who do 51 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: you say you are? God says you have seeds of greatness. 52 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: You are destined to leave your mark. Other voices will 53 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 1: tell you you're just ordinary, you'll never do anything significant. You 54 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 1: have the final choice. Who do you say you are? 55 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: The problem with some people is they've chosen the wrong voice. 56 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: So long, they don't know who they really are. They've 57 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: let people label them, tell them what they're not, what 58 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:15,839 Speaker 1: they can't do. They've allowed circumstances to define them, mistakes, disappointments. 59 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,239 Speaker 1: Now they've lost their passion. If you let these other 60 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: voices play, it will keep you from your destiny. The 61 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: only one that knows who you really are is your creator. 62 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: He calls you a masterpiece. He said you've been fearfully 63 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: and wonderfully made. He said you will be mighty in 64 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: the land. That you are more than a conquer strong, confident, approved, valuable. 65 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: That's who you were created to be. When you say 66 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: what God says about you, then you activate what He 67 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: put on the inside. But you can't say I'm weak 68 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: and tap into the power. You can't say I'll never 69 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: get ahead and tap into the abundance. He can't say 70 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 1: I'm not that talented. And to your greatness, who do 71 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: you say you are? 72 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 2: Not? 73 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: Who do other people say you are? Who does your 74 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 1: family say you are? Who do your coworkers say you are? 75 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: No disrespect, but you are not who people say you are. 76 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: You are who God says you are. People can't always 77 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: see what God put in you. They can't see the potential, 78 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: the gifts, the greatness. If you let them put their 79 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 1: limitations on you, convince you that you can't accomplish your dream, 80 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: You'll never get out of debt, you can't overcome that sickness. Then, 81 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 1: because you're letting them define you, what they're saying is 82 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 1: going to come to pass. They may speak negative things, 83 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: but it has no power if you don't let it 84 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: get in you don't repeat the negative people have spoken 85 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:52,799 Speaker 1: over you. In John chapter one, the Jewish leaders sent 86 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: men out into the desert to find out who John 87 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: the Baptist was. They had heard so much about him. 88 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: He had a large following. These leaders traveled from Jerusalem 89 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 1: and asked John if he was to Christ. He told 90 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: them no. They asked if he was Elijah. He said 91 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: it again, I'm not. They said in verse twenty two, 92 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: then tell us who you are so we can give 93 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,599 Speaker 1: an answer to those who sent us. What do you 94 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: say about yourself? John could have answered many different ways. 95 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: He could have told them about his background, his education, 96 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 1: his philosophy. But verse twenty three says John replied, in 97 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: the words of Isaiah, I am a voice shouting in 98 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: the wilderness. Prepare the way for the Lord. He went 99 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: back to what the scripture said about him. He didn't 100 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: say what he felt. He didn't say how he was raised, 101 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 1: what he was dealing with. He said what God said 102 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 1: about him. Imagine someone ask you who do you say 103 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: you are so we can tell others. What kind of 104 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: answer would you have? Well, this pandemic has me worried. 105 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: My back's been hurting, My business is slow. These kids 106 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: are getting on my nerves. I'm really discouraged. Sip that up. 107 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: That is not who you are. Go back to the 108 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: scripture and say what God says about you. Your answer 109 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 1: should be tell them I'm strong, anointed, talented, favored, healthy, blessed, forgiven, 110 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 1: fearfully and wonderfully made. We start off every service saying 111 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 1: I am what God says I am. I am not 112 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: what I feel. I may feel weak, but God says 113 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: I'm strong. So my report is I am strong. When 114 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: you say that, strength starts heading your way, you may 115 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 1: not feel up to par. You're dealing with an illness, 116 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 1: struggling with anxiety, fighting that depression. It's easy to wear 117 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: the labels sick, depressed, anxious, defeated. That's just who I am. 118 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: That's not who you are. That's what you're dealing with. 119 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: You're not a sick person trying to get well. You're 120 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 1: a well person fighting off sickness. Don't let that difficulty 121 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 1: become your identity. Don't get in agreement with the negative. 122 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: Go back to what your creator said. God said he's 123 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: restoring health back into you. He said you will run 124 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 1: and not be weary. He said, weeping endoors for a night, 125 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: But joy is coming in the morning. What do you 126 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: say about yourself? I'm sick, I'm depressed. Now I'm healthy, 127 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: I'm whole, I'm energetic, I'm free, I'm happy, I'm victorious. 128 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: If you'll start saying what God says about you instead 129 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: of what you feel, you'll see things begin to turn around. 130 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: Don't go through life we're in these negative labels. I 131 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: talked to a man that was so down on himself. 132 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: He told me how he had made mistakes, didn't raise 133 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: his children right, he was struggling with an addiction. He said, 134 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: I feel so unworthy. I don't deserve to be blessed. 135 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: When you're down on yourself, it's not doing anything productive. 136 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: Being against yourself is not going to help you move forward. 137 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: The enemy is called the accuser. He'll remind you of 138 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: every mistake you've made, every time you failed. He'd love 139 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: for you to wear these labels unworthy, washed up, no future. 140 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: I told him what I'm telling you. As long as 141 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 1: you see yourself unworthy, not deserving, it's going to keep 142 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: you where you are. Instead of wearing those labels. Why 143 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:37,079 Speaker 1: don't you say what God says about you. I'm forgiven, 144 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 1: I'm redeemed, I'm restored. My past is over, and my 145 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: future is right. Who do you say you are? Not? 146 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 1: Who do your mistakes say you are? Who do your 147 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: friends say you are? Who do the negative thoughts say 148 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:56,319 Speaker 1: you are? What you say overrides all the others. What 149 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 1: you say gives it the right to come to pass. 150 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: Quit saying negative things about yourself. I'm so overweight, I'm 151 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: so undisciplined. I'll never get out of this neighborhood. I'll 152 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: never break this addiction. You're going to become what you believe. 153 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 1: Why don't you start saying what God says about you? 154 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: I'm talented, I'm successful, I'm prosperous, I'm free, I'm valuable, 155 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: I'm a masterpiece. What you say about yourself is going 156 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 1: to become a reality. Who do you say you are? 157 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: I'm just average? You're going to be average when the 158 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 1: truth is God didn't make anyone average. Nobody has your fingerprints. 159 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: Nobody can do what you can do. But as long 160 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: as you believe your ordinary, you wan't shine like you're 161 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: supposed to shine. When Moses was born, the scripture says 162 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:03,839 Speaker 1: he was no ordinary child. There was something special about him. 163 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: As he grew up, he could sense his destiny was 164 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: to deliver the Israelites out of slavery. He had good intentions, 165 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: but he made a mistake. He ended up having to 166 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: flee to the desert. He spent forty years in hiding. 167 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 1: I can imagine those voices told him how he blew it, 168 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: that he missed his chance. He could have warned the 169 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: labels failure, washed up too late, But deep down he 170 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,719 Speaker 1: could hear that still small voice telling him you are 171 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 1: no ordinary child. This is not how your story ends. 172 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 1: There is greatness in you. Just because you've made mistakes 173 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: doesn't mean that stopped your destiny. What God started he's 174 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: going to finish. What stops us is when we start 175 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 1: wearing the negative labels, when we start believing that we're 176 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 1: washed up, we quit pursuing our dreams. After forty years 177 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 1: in the desert, God appeared to Moses and said, now 178 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,679 Speaker 1: it's your time to fulfill your destiny. He went on 179 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 1: to deliver the Israelites part the Red Sea, do great things. 180 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 1: I don't believe this would have happened if Moses would 181 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 1: have seen himself as a failure. I've made too many mistakes. Instead, 182 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: he saw himself as no ordinary child. He kept the 183 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 1: right image on the inside. When you were born, God 184 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 1: said the same thing about you as he did Moses. 185 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: This is no ordinary child. God put greatness in you. 186 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 1: He's destined you to leave your mark. You may have 187 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 1: made mistakes, you may have obstacles. It's taken longer than 188 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: you thought, but that doesn't change what's in you now. 189 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,439 Speaker 1: The enemy will work over time to try to steal 190 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 1: your sense of value, your sense of worth. He knows 191 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: if he can distort your identity who you are and 192 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 1: convince you that you're just average, nothing special about you, 193 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 1: then he can keep you from your greatness. I wonder 194 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: what you could accomplish. I wonder how far God will 195 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: take you if you will just live like you are 196 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 1: no ordinary child, not arrogantly, but knowing that God has 197 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: placed greatness in you, that there's a favor on your 198 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 1: life that will take you where you can't go on 199 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 1: your own, and anointing that will break every chain that's 200 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: trying to hold you back, a blessing that will cause 201 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: you to stand out. Who do you say? You are? 202 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: Not ordinary, not average, You are a child of the 203 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: most High God. You have royal blood flowing through your veins. 204 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 1: You've been crowned with favor. What's trying to stop you 205 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 1: doesn't have a chance. God being for you is more 206 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:54,559 Speaker 1: than the world being against you. That dream may seem 207 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: too big for some people, it is, but not for 208 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:02,319 Speaker 1: you. You're no ordinary child. That sickness should be the end. 209 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 1: The medical report says you're done, but not for you. 210 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 1: You're no ordinary child. That mistake you've made should have 211 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 1: stopped your destiny. It should have limited your future, but 212 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: not for you. You are no ordinary child. God handpicked 213 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 1: you before you could choose him. He chose you when 214 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 1: he created you. God stepped back and said that was 215 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: very good. Now. God created you diverses, He flung stars 216 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 1: into space. He made spectacular sunrises, magnificent mountain ranges, but 217 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 1: he never said they were very good. The only thing 218 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 1: he said that about was you. Now, don't go around 219 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: thinking your average you don't have much to offer. You 220 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 1: are no ordinary child. You are a history maker. You 221 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: are a world changer. You are destined to leave your mark. 222 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 1: What Joel, This sounds good, But I think you have 223 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 1: the wrong person. It's nothing unusual about me. I'm not 224 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: super talented. I don't have a great personality. I don't 225 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 1: come from an influential family. As long as you're discounting yourself, 226 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 1: you're not going to see your greatness. Who do you 227 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 1: say you are ordinary? Average? You're going to become that. 228 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: I'm asking you to get in agreement with God. He said, 229 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: you are no ordinary child. It doesn't matter how you 230 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 1: were raised. It's not dependent on how much education you have, 231 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 1: how many connections, what obstacles you're up against. When you 232 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 1: believe doors will open, you never dream would open. God 233 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 1: will take you further than you can imagine. The prophet 234 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 1: Joel said, wake up the mighty men, Wake up the 235 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: mighty women. I want to wake up your greatness. Wake 236 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: up your dreams. Wake up that business God put in you. 237 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: Wake up that book, the movie, the song, the orphanage, 238 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: the ministry. May seem like it's over your head, but 239 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: you have to understand you are no ordinary child. You're 240 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 1: not average. You can accomplish more than you think. You 241 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: are stronger than you think. You are more anointed than 242 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 1: you think. You are more favored than you think. You 243 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: are more talented than you think. The dreams and gifts 244 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: God put in you are much bigger than you think. 245 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 1: If you're going to see the fullness of what's in you. 246 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: Then you have to see yourself the right way. Who 247 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: do you say you are? Don't you dare say I'm average, 248 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: I'm ordinary. Get in agreement with God. I am no 249 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: ordinary child. I am highly favored, I am destined for greatness. 250 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: I am surrounded with God's goodness. When you know you're 251 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 1: an unusual child, you will see unusual favor, unusual healing, 252 00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 1: unusual doors open, unusual breakthroughs. We would have never gotten 253 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 1: the Compact Center if I didn't believe that I was 254 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 1: no ordinary child. Now, everything in me said I was ordinary. 255 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: When I stepped up to pastor the church, I felt unqualified. 256 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 1: But you can't go by your feelings. I chose to 257 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: believe what God said that I was equipped and empowered. 258 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: I had never ministered, didn't have the training, the experience. 259 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 1: All the circumstances said I was average. There was nothing 260 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 1: special about me. But deep down I was bold enough 261 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: to believe that I was no ordinary child. I didn't 262 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: tell anyone, but I could feel the seeds of greatness. 263 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: I could hear God whispering in the night that big 264 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 1: doors were going to open. Victoria told me ten years 265 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: before my father passed that one day I would pastor 266 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 1: the church. And that seems so odd to me. I thought, boy, 267 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 1: I've got her fooled. I can't get up in front 268 00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: of people. I felt ordinary, But the script nature says 269 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 1: there is fire shut up in your bones. There is 270 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:08,400 Speaker 1: greatness shut up on the inside. As I stepped up, 271 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 1: I discovered talent that I didn't know was in me. 272 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 1: There was a boldness and confidence that I'd never had before. 273 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 1: When I heard that the Compact center was coming available, 274 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 1: I didn't think twice. I never thought about where we'd 275 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: get the funds or how it could happen. I just 276 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 1: knew we were supposed to pursue it. When you know 277 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,919 Speaker 1: that you're no ordinary child, you'll go after dreams that 278 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 1: seem too big. You'll pray bold prayers. You'll believe for 279 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 1: things that most people think are impossible. There are compact 280 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,959 Speaker 1: centers that have your name on them, dreams much bigger 281 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: than you thought, businesses, ministries. How could it happen? You 282 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 1: don't have the experience, the funding, the connections. You are 283 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 1: no ordinary child. There is a favor on your life 284 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 1: that will catapult you ahead, a blessing that will cause 285 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: people to help you and God is not asking you 286 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: to figure it out. He's just asking you to believe, 287 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 1: not only believe in Him, but believe in who He 288 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: created you to be. Who do you say you are? 289 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 1: If you're going to reach your destiny, if you're going 290 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: to see your compact centers, your dreams, you're healing, you 291 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,880 Speaker 1: have to know that you're not ordinary. There's something special 292 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 1: about you, not because of who you are, but because 293 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:32,679 Speaker 1: of whose you are. The most high God breathed his 294 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 1: life into you. Well, Joel, I don't feel special. You 295 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: don't have to feel it. You just have to believe it. 296 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 1: If you'll believe it long enough, then you'll not only 297 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: feel it, but you'll see it. I didn't feel special. 298 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 1: I felt ordinary, but I chose to believe it by faith. Now, 299 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,959 Speaker 1: every time I walk into this stadium, I know I 300 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 1: am no ordinary child. I know I couldn't have done 301 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 1: this on my own, but the creator of the universe 302 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 1: favored me. I didn't think I could speak in front 303 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: of people. I was too quiet, too reserved. But every 304 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: time I flipped through the channels and see myself on television, 305 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 1: I do a double take. I'm amazed at where God 306 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: has taken me. I realize I am no ordinary child. No, 307 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,440 Speaker 1: I'm not bragging on me. I'm bragging on the greatness 308 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,639 Speaker 1: of our God. He wants to take your places that 309 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 1: you've never dreamed. What He has planned for your future 310 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: is bigger and more rewarding than you've ever imagined. Judges, 311 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: chapter six. The Midianites had overtaken the people of Israel 312 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 1: and were making their lives miserable. There was a man 313 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 1: named Gideon that was hiding in the wine press, afraid 314 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 1: of the Midianites. An angel appeared to him and said, 315 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:55,400 Speaker 1: mighty hero, the Lord is with you, I can imagine. 316 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 1: Gideon looked around and thought, who's he talking about. I'm 317 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: not a mighty hero. I'm hiding, I'm afraid. The angel 318 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 1: went on to tell him that he was to rescue 319 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: the people of Israel from the Midianites. He was to 320 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 1: lead the charge. Gideon was so taken aback he said 321 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: to the angel, how can I deliver the Israelites. I 322 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: come from the weakest tribe, and I'm the youngest one 323 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 1: in my family. He was saying, God, you have the 324 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: wrong person. I'm young, I'm weak, I'm intimidated. He started 325 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 1: making all these excuses, telling God what he wasn't. But 326 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: I've learned God won't ask you to do something if 327 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: he hasn't already given you what you need. You may 328 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,160 Speaker 1: not have tapped into it yet, but it's in you. 329 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 1: Like with Gideon, God is calling you a mighty hero. 330 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: Other voices will call your ordinary, not talented, weak, afraid 331 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: someone is wrong. These are two conflicting reports. You're either 332 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: a mighty hero or you're weak and unable. Here's the 333 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: You get to choose. Who do you say you are? 334 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,879 Speaker 1: Either voice can come to pass. It's all dependent on 335 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,719 Speaker 1: who you agree with. Are you going to agree with 336 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:14,399 Speaker 1: God and say yes, I believe I'm a mighty hero, 337 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: I'm equipped and empowered, I'm well able to fulfill my destiny. 338 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 1: Or are you going to do like Gideon and start 339 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 1: making excuses to stay where you are. I wasn't raised 340 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 1: in a good environment, Joel. I've had some bad breaks. 341 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: This company did me wrong, this person walked out on me. 342 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: Nobody would help me with my dream. Respectfully, none of 343 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 1: that matters what God has ordained for. You cannot be 344 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: stopped by people, by bad breaks, by disappointments. God already 345 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 1: knew it was going to happen. He's already lined up 346 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:54,399 Speaker 1: what you need. Now. He's calling you a mighty hero. 347 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 1: He's calling you to set new standards, to take your 348 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 1: family to a new level. A mighty hero to break 349 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:06,719 Speaker 1: generational curses that keep getting passed down. He's calling you 350 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 1: to put an end to that dysfunction. A mighty hero 351 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 1: to stop the poverty and lack and step into abundance 352 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: and overflow. What's interesting is when God called Gideon a 353 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:23,880 Speaker 1: mighty hero, he hadn't done anything significant. He hadn't defeated 354 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: a giant like David, hadn't parted the Red Sea like Moses, 355 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: hadn't brought a dead person back to life like Elijah. 356 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 1: It seemed like he was just ordinary, just working on 357 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 1: the farm every day, gathering up the wheat. But God 358 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 1: calls us what we are before it happens. He knows 359 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: what's in us. He's the one that put the potential, 360 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: the gifts, the talents. Gideon finally did what I'm asking 361 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: us to do. Instead of seeing himself as ordinary not 362 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:57,640 Speaker 1: able to something rose up on the inside. He said, 363 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: in effect, if God says I'm a mighty he, then 364 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 1: I believe I'm a mighty hero. He went out with 365 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 1: thirty two thousand men to fight the Midianites, but God 366 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 1: told him that was too many. He kept weeding it 367 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 1: down more and more. Finally, when he just had three 368 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 1: hundred men, he went out to fight this army of 369 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: thousands and thousands. Sometimes God will let the odds be 370 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,879 Speaker 1: against you in a great way, so when he turns 371 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: it around, you'll know it's him and not you. At midnight, 372 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 1: Gideon and those three hundred men attacked the Midianites. They 373 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 1: rushed to their camp, shouting a sword for the Lord 374 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,680 Speaker 1: and a sword for Gideon. Here. A few days earlier, 375 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:55,440 Speaker 1: Gideon was hiding from his enemies. Now he's rushing toward them, 376 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: with all of the men shouting his name. God wanted 377 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 1: get in to hear them, declaring that he was a 378 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 1: mighty hero. The Midianites got confused and started fighting each other. 379 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:12,959 Speaker 1: They ended up defeating themselves, and Gideon won the victory. 380 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:16,120 Speaker 1: When God calls you a mighty hero, if you'll get 381 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 1: an agreement with him, you will become a mighty hero. 382 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: He will make things happen that you couldn't make happen. Now, 383 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: quit discounting yourself. If I had the training, if I 384 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: came from a different family. If this pandemic hadn't a hit, 385 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,120 Speaker 1: then I could do something great. God wants to do 386 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 1: something great in your life, despite odds being against you. 387 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,399 Speaker 1: He's not limited by what you don't have, by what 388 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 1: the economy is doing, by what hasn't worked out. He 389 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,479 Speaker 1: doesn't need everything you think you need. He's going to 390 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 1: cause you to accomplish great things with less resources. Just 391 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 1: ask David. All he had was a slingshot and a 392 00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: few stones, but that catapulted him into his destiny. God 393 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 1: is calling you a giant killer, a history maker, a 394 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: mighty hero. Why don't you get in agreement with him? 395 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 1: What a shame to live and die and never really 396 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 1: know who you are? What could you become if you 397 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: saw yourself the way God sees you? What dreams could 398 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 1: you accomplish? What obstacles could you overcome? What businesses could 399 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 1: you build? What books could you write? What influence could 400 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: you have if you only knew who you are? Gideon 401 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 1: didn't feel like a mighty hero. He didn't come from 402 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:42,679 Speaker 1: influence and wealth. He wasn't strong and courageous. Nothing about 403 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 1: his circumstances look like what God said. But God calls 404 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 1: you what you are before you become it, then it's 405 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:54,360 Speaker 1: up to you. If you'll believe it, get it down 406 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 1: in your spirit, it will become a reality. Gideon never 407 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 1: dreamed one day he be in the Bible, never dream 408 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:05,160 Speaker 1: thousands of years ago, we'd be talking about his story. 409 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 1: You don't know where God is taking you. You don't 410 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: know the doors he's going to open, the giants you're 411 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 1: going to defeat, the influence you're going to have. There's 412 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,639 Speaker 1: an awesome future in front of you, but it's dependent 413 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 1: on how you see yourself. Who do you say you are? Average, limited, disadvantage, 414 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:29,479 Speaker 1: not able to that will keep you from your destiny. 415 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 1: Instead of letting people define you, instead of letting your 416 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,680 Speaker 1: past label you, why don't you go back to what 417 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 1: God says about you. He's the one that made you. 418 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:43,400 Speaker 1: Like Gideon, you may not realize who you are. God 419 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 1: send an angel to remind him. He rose up and 420 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: left his mark. An angel may not appear to you, 421 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 1: but maybe God is using me to remind you who 422 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:58,439 Speaker 1: you are. You are a mighty hero. You are a masterpiece. 423 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 1: You are strong, valuable, talented, confident, healthy, anointed, victorious forgiven. 424 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: You are no ordinary child. Put your shoulders back, hold 425 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 1: your head up high, and step up to who you 426 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 1: were created to be. If you'll do this, I believe 427 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,879 Speaker 1: and declare you're going to see God show out in 428 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: your life. New doors are about to open, new opportunities, 429 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 1: giants are about to come down, healing, favor, breakthroughs, the 430 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:33,879 Speaker 1: fullness of your destiny. In Jesus' name, I'd like to 431 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,919 Speaker 1: give you an opportunity to make Jesus the Lord of 432 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 1: your life. Would you pray with me? Just say, Lord, Jesus, 433 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 1: I repent of my sins, Come into my heart. I 434 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 1: make you my Lord and savior. If you prayed that 435 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 1: simple prayer, we believe you got born again. We'd love 436 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 1: to give you some free information on your new walk 437 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: with the Lord. Just text the number on the screen 438 00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 1: or go to the website. I hope you'll get into 439 00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 1: it a good Bible based church and keep God first place. 440 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 2: Some of us have been carrying the same weight for years, mistakes, regrets, 441 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,159 Speaker 2: what people said. What if you were never meant to 442 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 2: carry any of it. 443 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 1: It's easy in life to wear labels mistakes we've made 444 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 1: and what people have said, disappointments we faced. Those labels 445 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 1: can diminish our sense of value and cause us to 446 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,440 Speaker 1: forget who we really are. And have a new book 447 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 1: called Made by God.
