I like to start 48 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 4: with something funny each week. And I heard about this lady. 49 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 4: She was on an airplane reading her Bible, and the 50 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 4: man sitting next to her said, you don't believe all 51 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 4: that stuff in there, do you? She said, of course 52 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 4: I do. It's the Bible. He said, well, what about 53 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 4: that God that got swallowed by a well? She said, 54 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 4: you mean Jonah. Yes, I believe that too. He said, well, 55 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 4: how could he possibly live all that time inside of 56 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 4: a well? She thought about it a moment, said I 57 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 4: don't know. When I get to heaven, I'll have to 58 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 4: ask him. He kind of said sarcastically, Well, what if 59 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,359 Speaker 4: he's not in heaven. She smiled and said, then you're 60 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 4: going to have to ask him. All right, hold up 61 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 4: your Bible, say it like you mean it. This is 62 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 4: my Bible. I am what it says I am. I 63 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 4: have what it says I have. I can do what 64 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,799 Speaker 4: it says I can do. Today I will be taught 65 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 4: the word of God. I boldly confess my mind is alert, 66 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 4: my heart is receptive. I will never be the same. 67 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 4: In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want to talk 68 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 4: to you today about the outstretched hand of God. As believers, 69 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 4: you and I have an advantage. We don't have to 70 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 4: go through life just depending on our own talent, our 71 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:33,799 Speaker 4: own ability, our own strength. The scripture talks about how 72 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 4: God's hand is outstretched toward us. That means there is 73 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 4: a supernatural power behind every believer. God's outstretched hand will 74 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 4: help you accomplish dreams that you thought were impossible. His 75 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 4: outstretched hand will cause you to get well even when 76 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 4: the medical report says there's no way. The outstretched hand 77 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 4: of God will help us to prosper even when the 78 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 4: economy is down. Now, all through the day, you need 79 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 4: to imagine, not that God is mad at me. I've 80 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 4: made so many mistakes. I'll probably never get out of 81 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 4: this problem. No, get a new perspective. Imagine God's hand 82 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 4: is outstretched towards you. It is a hand of healing, 83 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 4: a hand of favor, a hand of restoration. You may 84 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 4: have some obstacles in your path. Maybe you're facing a sickness, 85 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 4: an addiction. Perhaps another person is trying to hold you back. 86 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 4: Do you have to realize there is a force that 87 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 4: is for you, that is greater than any force that 88 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 4: will ever be against you. Your attitude should be I 89 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 4: am not settling where I am. I know I have 90 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 4: an advantage as a child of the Most High. I 91 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 4: know God's hand is outstretched towards me. You're saying, I 92 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 4: know favor is on its way. I know healing is coming. 93 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 4: I know God is fighting my battles for me. When 94 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 4: we release our faith like that, the creator of the 95 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 4: universe breathes in our direction. The scripture says here in 96 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 4: Isaiah fourteen twenty seven, the Lord of Host has purposed, 97 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 4: and who can annul it? I love that. It's saying 98 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 4: God has a purpose for your life. He has already 99 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 4: planned out your days for victory. He's got a comeback 100 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 4: already lined up for every setback. He's got a solution 101 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 4: for every problem. The right people, the right breaks, the 102 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 4: right opportunities, all your days have been written in God's book. 103 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 4: Notice it says who can annul it? God is saying, 104 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 4: who can stop my plan? Sickness can't stop it, the 105 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 4: economy can't stop it. A bad break can't stop it, 106 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 4: an accident can't stop it. God has preordained you to 107 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 4: be victorious. You need to get this on the inside. 108 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 4: Does it matter what it looks like in the natural, 109 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 4: No matter how many setbacks you've been through or how 110 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 4: many obstacles are in your path. Right now now, the 111 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 4: Most High God has destined you to live a life 112 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 4: of victory, and some of you today you need to 113 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 4: get a new vision. At one time you were excited 114 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 4: about your future. You had big goals, big dreams, but 115 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 4: you went through some disappointments. Life didn't turn out like 116 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 4: you to hope, and now you've just settled you're not 117 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 4: expecting God's favor. But understand, God's plan for your life 118 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 4: didn't go away just because you had some disappointments, just 119 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 4: because somebody treated you unfairly. God didn't write us off 120 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 4: just because we made some poor decisions. God knew every 121 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 4: mistake we'd ever make. He knew every person that would 122 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 4: do us wrong. And the good news is none of 123 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 4: that stopped God's purpose for your life. Nothing can anno it. 124 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 4: No matter what has happened in your past. God still 125 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 4: has a bright future in store for every one of you. 126 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 4: And if you will get your hopes back and get 127 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 4: your vision in line with God's, then the rest of 128 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 4: your life is going to be the best of your life. 129 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 4: It goes on to say, my hand is outstretched, and 130 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 4: who can stop it? God is saying, as long as 131 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 4: my hand is outstressed, you are headed for victory. As 132 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 4: long as I've got my hand stretched out, then I 133 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 4: have favor that nobody can stop. I have promotion, I 134 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 4: have increased I have supernatural breaks that cannot be held back. 135 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 4: If you will get in agreement with God and get 136 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 4: up each day knowing that his hand is outstretched towards you, 137 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 4: then you might as well get ready. It's just a 138 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 4: matter of time before you see explosive blessings, blessings that 139 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 4: thrust you to a new level. It's just a matter 140 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 4: of time before you get the break you need, the 141 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 4: right person comes across your path. Just a matter of 142 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 4: time before your health turns around, that sickness leaves, your 143 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 4: strength is restored. How could this happen? God's hand is 144 00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 4: outstretched towards you and nothing can stop it. In other words, 145 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 4: when God gets ready to bless you, no obstacle, no sickness, 146 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 4: no person, no government, all the forces of darkness cannot 147 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 4: stop it from happening, we should have the attitude. The 148 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 4: economy may be down, but I'm not worried about it. 149 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 4: I know I have an advantage. God's hand is outstretched 150 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 4: toward me. He is supplying all of my needs. He's 151 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 4: prospering me. Even in a recession. I am blessed in 152 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 4: the city and blessed in the country. Why the hand 153 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 4: of God. A friend of mine told about this man, 154 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 4: he knows business associate. He was living a perfectly healthy life. 155 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 4: Everything was going great, but one day he started having 156 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 4: these unusual headaches. He began to get a little disoriented. 157 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 4: Finally he had to go to the doctor and they 158 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 4: checked him in the hospital, ran some test and long 159 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,199 Speaker 4: story short, they discovered that he had a large tumor 160 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 4: in his brain. And this top neurosurgeon, one of the 161 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 4: best in the country, said, all we can do is operate. 162 00:08:59,920 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 4: All we can do is try to remove it. They 163 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 4: didn't give him a lot of hope. He got that 164 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 4: bad news on a Friday. They schedule the operation for 165 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 4: first thing Monday morning, and they wanted him to stay 166 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 4: in the hospital and just relax and not take any chances. 167 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 4: But this man was very determined to go home over 168 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,719 Speaker 4: the weekend. They tried and tried to talk him out 169 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 4: of it. He said no, I've got to go home 170 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 4: because I watch a young minister on television and I 171 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 4: need to make sure I watch him this week. They said, 172 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 4: when we have televisions here, that wasn't good enough. He 173 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 4: wanted to watch in his own home. Well, that week 174 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 4: on the program, I made the statement, it doesn't matter 175 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 4: what the medical report says. God can turn the situation around. 176 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,559 Speaker 4: When he heard that something leaped on the inside, he said, 177 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 4: I knew at that moment God had touched me. He 178 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 4: went back on Monday and had the operation, or when 179 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 4: he woke up, the first thing the surgeon said to 180 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 4: him was I want to know whose prayer list are 181 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 4: you on. He went on to tell how he didn't 182 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 4: have this massive tumor. It was just a little bit 183 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 4: of blood. He said, Listen, I've been doing this long 184 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 4: enough to know the difference between what I see on 185 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,199 Speaker 4: the X rays and what I saw in person. What 186 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 4: is that God's outstretched hand releasing healing, doing what medical 187 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 4: science cannot do. You may be facing a sickness today, 188 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 4: maybe it's something you've had for a long time, but 189 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 4: you need to imagine right now God's hand is outstretched 190 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 4: towards you, releasing healing health wholeness, restoration. When you believe, 191 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 4: nothing can stop it. If it's not your time to go, 192 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 4: you're not gonna go. If you have not fulfilled your purpose, 193 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 4: nothing can annul it. You need to start talking to 194 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 4: yourself all through the day, over and over in your mind. 195 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 4: Healing is flowing into me. I'm getting stronger, I'm getting healthier. 196 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,319 Speaker 4: My youth is being renewed, my strength is being restored. 197 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 4: This sickness didn't come to stay, it came to pass. 198 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 4: When we release our faith like that, it's just like 199 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 4: we're reaching up our hand connecting to God's hand. The 200 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 4: good news is there is healing in his hand, there 201 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 4: is restoration, There is supernatural power in God's outstretched hand. 202 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 4: I think about how when Moses was leading the people 203 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 4: of Israel, he came to a dead end at the 204 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 4: Red Sea. They had nowhere to go, looked like it 205 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 4: was over. We all face situations in life where we 206 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 4: come to the end of our own ability. In the natural, 207 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 4: we don't see any way out, like that man with 208 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 4: the medical report, or maybe a dream has died some 209 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 4: kind of setback. But if we can just remember God's 210 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 4: hand is still outstretched toward us, and God told Moses, 211 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 4: do what I'm doing. Moses, stretch forth your hand, hold 212 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 4: out that rod as an act of faith. Moses stretched 213 00:11:55,880 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 4: out his hand representing God's outstretched hand, and that's when 214 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 4: the water's parted and the people went through on dry ground. 215 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 4: What am I saying? When we stretch out our hand, 216 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 4: when we release our faith, that's when supernatural things are 217 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 4: going to happen. I can't tell you how many times, 218 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 4: Victorian I, when we were trying to acquire this facility, 219 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 4: we would walk around the building at night when nobody 220 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 4: could see us. In the natural, we didn't have a chance. 221 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,239 Speaker 4: All the odds were against us. It was David verse Goliath. 222 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 4: But we'd go around with our hands outstretched, saying, Father, 223 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 4: thank you that you are turning things in our favor. 224 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,439 Speaker 4: Thank you that you are fighting our battles for us. 225 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 4: Thank you that you're giving us the breaks that we need. 226 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 4: What happened, our outstretched hands connected with God's outstretched hand, 227 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,079 Speaker 4: and he made a way when it looked like there 228 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 4: was no way. You may be struggling in your finances, 229 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 4: You need to stretch out your hand toward that business. 230 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 4: Stretch out your hand and toward that house. You're trying 231 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 4: to sell, or maybe just stretch out your hand toward 232 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 4: your check book and say, Father, as an act of 233 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 4: my faith, I am stretching out my hand, believing that 234 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 4: I'm connecting with your outstretched hand, knowing that right now 235 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 4: you're releasing supernatural increase, supernatural promotion. You need to go 236 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 4: around talking to yourself. Father, thank you that your blessings 237 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 4: are chasing me down and overtaking me. Thank you that 238 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,439 Speaker 4: whatever I touch prospers and succeeds. I know God, you're 239 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 4: causing me to be at the right place at the 240 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 4: right time. When you do that, that allows God to 241 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 4: release what's in his hand. Maybe you have a child 242 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 4: that's not doing right. Just stretch out your hand toward 243 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 4: his room, or maybe he lives in another city, will 244 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,839 Speaker 4: stretch out your hand toward his home. God, you said, 245 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 4: as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. 246 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,319 Speaker 4: And as an act of faith, with my hand out stretched, 247 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 4: I believe right now you are breaking every negative influence, 248 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 4: breaking every addiction, breaking every wrong habit, and you'll release 249 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 4: your favor, your increase, your promotion, your restoration. Sometimes you 250 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:06,719 Speaker 4: just need to look in the mirror and stretch out 251 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 4: your hand toward yourself. Just say, Father, as an act 252 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 4: of faith, I'm stretching out my hand declaring that I 253 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 4: am blessed, I am prosperous, I am anointed, I am appointed, 254 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 4: I am approved, I am forgiven, I am redeemed, I 255 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 4: am well able. When we release our faith like that, 256 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 4: we can just imagine God's outstretched hand is releasing favor, healing, restoration, 257 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 4: whatever we need. This is especially important when we're tempted 258 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 4: to get discouraged, when things aren't going your way, and 259 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 4: those never lies come telling you that you're never going 260 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 4: to get well, never accomplish your dreams. Don't drag around 261 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 4: with your head down. Now, that's when, more than ever, 262 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 4: you need to look up and through your eyes of faith, 263 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 4: see God's outstretched hand. If you get a negative medical report, 264 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 4: don't dwell on it. Look up and see that healing 265 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 4: flowing into you a red sea an impossible situation. Don't 266 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 4: sink into self pity. Oh I'll never get out of this. No, 267 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 4: look up and get a vision of God turning it around. 268 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 4: Whatever you need, it's in God's hand, And the good 269 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 4: news is his hand is outstretched towards you. This is 270 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 4: what the mother of Moses did. She was facing an 271 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 4: impossible situation. When Moses was born, the king ordered that 272 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 4: all the male babies be killed. She could have easily thought, oh, 273 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 4: just my luck, wouldn't you know it? I have a 274 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 4: baby and look what happens. No, she understood this principle. 275 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 4: She knew God's hand was outstretched toward her, and if 276 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 4: she would release her faith and connect with his hand, 277 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 4: supernatural things would happen. She hid Moses as long as 278 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 4: she could, but when he got too big, she put 279 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 4: him in that basket and sent him down the Nile River. 280 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 4: And it just so happened that Faro's daughter went down 281 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 4: to the river to take a bath. God caused her 282 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 4: to be at the right place at the right time. 283 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 4: That's what happens when we believe God releases favor. She 284 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 4: heard the little baby crying in the basket and she 285 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 4: opened it up. She thought, Wow, what a beautiful little child. 286 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 4: I'm gonna take him as my own. She said to 287 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 4: her assistant, we need to find somebody that can nurse 288 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 4: this baby. The assistant said, I know just who to find. 289 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 4: She went and got Moses' mother, and would you believe it, 290 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 4: moses mother was able to not only raise her own child, 291 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 4: but on top of that, she got paid for doing it. 292 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 4: Only God could orchestrate that. That was his outstretched hand 293 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 4: releasing protection, favor increase. Psalm one eighteen says, there are 294 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 4: shouts of joy and victory in the home of the godly. 295 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 4: The strong arm of the Lord has done amazing things. 296 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 4: I believe God is saying that to each one of us. 297 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 4: In the coming days, You're going to see the strong 298 00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 4: arm of the Lord do amazing things. Means God is 299 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 4: going to turn around situations that you thought were impossible. 300 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 4: God is going to help you break addictions that have 301 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,679 Speaker 4: held you back for years. God is going to bring 302 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 4: people across your path supernatural opportunities that will thrust you 303 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 4: to the next level. You're going to discover talent on 304 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 4: the inside that you didn't even know you had. There 305 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 4: are going to be shouts of joy and victory in 306 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 4: your home. Why because of the outstretched arm of the Lord. 307 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 4: Let that seed take root today. Remember a few years 308 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,119 Speaker 4: ago I was doing a book signing in another state. 309 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 4: There were a few hundred people in the line, and 310 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 4: this lady at one point came up. Looked to be 311 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 4: in her mid fifties, there was a young lady next 312 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 4: to her, maybe in her thirties, and they were both 313 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 4: crying and crying, and of course I didn't know what 314 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 4: was going on. The lady began to explain how this 315 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 4: was her daughter. They had been estranged for twelve years. 316 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 4: They had gotten at odds with each other. They wanted 317 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 4: to make things right, but there was just two much 318 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 4: water under the bridge. They had not spoken to one 319 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 4: another in over twelve years. But what they didn't realize 320 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 4: was they both had been watching our program on television 321 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 4: and independently, they decided to come to the book signing 322 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 4: that night. When they saw each other, it was like 323 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 4: God melted away all the unforgiveness. A healing began to 324 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 4: take place, that relationship began to be restored. The mother said, 325 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 4: with big tears coming down her cheeks, this is the 326 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 4: happiest day of my life. God has brought my daughter 327 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 4: back to me. What was she saying? The strong arm 328 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 4: of the Lord has done amazing things. Now there are 329 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,880 Speaker 4: shouts of joy and victory in her home. That's what 330 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 4: God is going to do for each one of us, 331 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 4: says in Psalm one thirty eight. Though I am surrounded 332 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 4: by trouble. You will bring me safely through. Your fist 333 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 4: is clenched against my enemies. Think about this. God's hand 334 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 4: is open and outstretched towards you, but his fist is 335 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 4: clensed against your enemies. That's not just talking about people. 336 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 4: Sickness is an enemy. Depression is an enemy, Poverty is 337 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 4: an enemy. You may be struggling with an illness, but 338 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:20,360 Speaker 4: you need to imagine right now. God's fist is clensed 339 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 4: against that cancer, is clensed against that heart disease, but 340 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 4: his hand of healing is open towards you. God's fist 341 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 4: is clensed against that depression, it's clensed against that poverty. 342 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 4: But his hand of abundance, his hand of joy, his 343 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 4: hand of peace is open towards you. Or maybe somebody 344 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 4: is treating you unfairly, doing you wrong. Stay on the 345 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 4: high road. Be the bigger person. You don't have to 346 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 4: get even God's fist is clensed against them, but his 347 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 4: hand of favor is open towards you. I had this 348 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 4: lady tell how her supervisor at the office was so 349 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 4: insecure that she was jealous and just intimidated by her. 350 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 4: She wouldn't give her any credit. She was always trying 351 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,640 Speaker 4: to put her down, make her look bad doing something 352 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:13,119 Speaker 4: that annoyed her. This went on month after month. I 353 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 4: told the lady what I'm telling you. You got to 354 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 4: stay on the high road and let God fight your 355 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 4: battles for you. This supervisor was a relatively young lady. 356 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,120 Speaker 4: She was in a good position, a fortune five hundred company. 357 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,160 Speaker 4: It looked like this lady would be under her forever. 358 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 4: But one day the CEO of the company, the man 359 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,919 Speaker 4: that ran the whole business, came to this lady that 360 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,640 Speaker 4: I was talking to, and he said, we've been watching 361 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 4: you and we are very impressed. We want to offer 362 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 4: you one of our positions as a senior vice president. 363 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 4: That was like five positions over her old supervisor. Friends, 364 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 4: God knows how to get you to where you're supposed 365 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 4: to be. Nothing can stop it. If somebody is trying 366 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 4: to hold you back, don't worry about it. God can 367 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,919 Speaker 4: go over their head if they're trying to make you 368 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 4: look bad. Just keep doing your best. God is keeping 369 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:08,120 Speaker 4: the records. He's the one that brings promotion. He can 370 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 4: either go over their head, he can move them out 371 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 4: of the way, or he can even change their heart 372 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 4: and cause them to be good to you. That's what 373 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 4: happened to this one man. He was trying to get 374 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 4: his family over to the States. He's an American citizen, 375 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 4: but his wife is not, and he was working on 376 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,439 Speaker 4: the visas and the proper paperwork. He told how he 377 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 4: went to the government office, but this man there was 378 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 4: very rude to him, not helpful at all, just made 379 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 4: it very confusing, very difficult. After a few weeks, he 380 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 4: got his paperwork done, got it all know to rise. 381 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 4: He went back and that man was just as rude 382 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 4: to him, and some other authorities had already told him 383 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 4: it should take about six months for the paperwork to 384 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 4: go through, but this man said, no, no, no, we're 385 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 4: all backed up. It'll be at least five years. We're 386 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 4: not going to get to your paperwork for a long time. 387 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 4: This man was disheartened, so discourage. He's tempted to get 388 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 4: a little bit upset, but he just kept his cool. 389 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 4: He understood this principle that God's fist is clensed against 390 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 4: our enemies. He blessed him and moved on. Well. About 391 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 4: three weeks later he got a call back from that 392 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,640 Speaker 4: same man said, come on in, your paperwork has all 393 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 4: gone through. He was so excited it was a miracle. 394 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 4: He went back and said to the man, I thought 395 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 4: you said it was going to take five years to 396 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 4: go through. The man said, well it should have. But 397 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 4: ever since I met you, I can't get you off 398 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 4: my mind. I go to bed thinking about you, I 399 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,360 Speaker 4: get up thinking about you. I eat lunch thinking about you. 400 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 4: He said, I am so tired of seeing you. You 401 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 4: are making me miserable. Take your paperwork and leave. What 402 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 4: is that? That's God's fist clensed against our enemies. You 403 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 4: don't have to fight your battles. God knows how to 404 00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 4: apply pressure to people. He knows how to make someone uncomfortable. 405 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 4: You just stay in peace. When somebody is doing you wrong, 406 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,439 Speaker 4: you can think to yourself, boy, you are messing with 407 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 4: the wrong person. God has his hand outstretched toward me, 408 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 4: but his fist is clensed towards you. It says in 409 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 4: Exodus six, I will bring you out from your burdens. 410 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 4: I will free you from your bondage. I will rescue 411 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:26,640 Speaker 4: you with my outstretched arm and by my mighty acts 412 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 4: of power. No matter how somebody is treating you, no 413 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 4: matter what's going on in your life, if you will 414 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 4: stay in faith, then you're going to see God's mighty 415 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 4: acts of power? What is that explosive blessings, supernatural turnaround, 416 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 4: supernatural breakthroughs, supernatural promotion, supernatural deliverance. God is saying, I'm 417 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 4: gonna free you from the bondage of poverty and lack. 418 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 4: I'm gonna free you from the burden of depression and discouragement. 419 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 4: I'm gonna free you from those people that are holding 420 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 4: you back. Or how about this, I'm going to free 421 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 4: you from every addiction, every bad habit. How is this 422 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 4: going to happen by God's mighty acts of power? Had 423 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 4: a young lady tell me last week how she was 424 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 4: a cocaine addict for fourteen years. She'd tried everything she 425 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 4: could to stop. She knew it was destroying her life, 426 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 4: destroying her health, her family. She was about to lose 427 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 4: a job again, and she wanted to quit, but didn't 428 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 4: seem to have the power. But she said, Joel, one day, 429 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 4: after I'd tried everything on my own, I got down 430 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:35,399 Speaker 4: on my knees and said, God, please help me. She 431 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 4: was not a religious person, she didn't come to church, 432 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 4: but just like a little child, she looked up and 433 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 4: called out to God and said, I need you when 434 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 4: she did, all of a sudden, she felt a warmness 435 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 4: come over her like she had never felt before. It 436 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 4: was a supernatural peace. Now she sat there and wept 437 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:57,919 Speaker 4: and wept. It was like a cleansing was taking place, 438 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 4: a healing on the inside. From that day forward, she 439 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 4: had no desire for cocaine. She was totally set free. 440 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 4: She began to gain her weight back, her skin cleared up, 441 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:13,880 Speaker 4: her hair got thick. She looked like a different person, 442 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:18,880 Speaker 4: a beautiful young lady. What was that God's outstretched arm 443 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 4: breaking every bondage, destroying every yoke. No matter how long 444 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 4: you may have struggled with some kind of addiction, you 445 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 4: need to get a new vision today. The Most High 446 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:34,719 Speaker 4: God has his fist clenched, not against you, but against 447 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 4: that addiction. You don't have to live in bondage. God's 448 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 4: arm is outstretched towards you. It is an arm of deliverance. 449 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,719 Speaker 4: And if you'll dare do like that, young lady and 450 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 4: just call out to God, then when your faith meets 451 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:54,159 Speaker 4: God's power, supernatural things are going to happen. Isaiah fifty 452 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 4: nine says, Surely the arm of the Lord is not 453 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 4: too short to save. Isaiah was saying make sure you 454 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,680 Speaker 4: understand this. Don't have a doubt in your mind. There 455 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 4: is no addiction that God cannot turn around. There is 456 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 4: no sickness too big, no problem too great. It may 457 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 4: look impossible to us, but with God, all things are possible. 458 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 4: I remember this gentleman growing up. He was an executive, 459 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,399 Speaker 4: had a very good job, very successful, but alcohol was 460 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:28,359 Speaker 4: destroying his life. It was tearing his family apart. He 461 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:32,439 Speaker 4: and his wife got divorced. He got so low, so distraught, 462 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:36,159 Speaker 4: he contemplated ending his life. One day, he was in 463 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 4: a closet on the floor and he said, God, I 464 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 4: can't take it anymore. Please help me. That was the 465 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 4: first time he could ever remember acknowledging God. But our 466 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 4: God is full of mercy. He is a present help 467 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 4: in our times of trouble, just like that young lady. 468 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 4: He began to feel this warmness come all over him. 469 00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 4: It was a healing taking place on the inside. That 470 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 4: moment was a turning point. He never had another drop 471 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 4: of alcohol. Several years later, he got back together with 472 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 4: his ex wife. They eventually remarried. Not long after that, 473 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:16,440 Speaker 4: he resigned his position as that executive and he started 474 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 4: a small church. It began to grow and grow. Today. 475 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 4: He's a successful pastor. His family is in the ministry. 476 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 4: He goes all over the world telling others about God's 477 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 4: outstretched hand. Friends, what God did for him, he wants 478 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 4: to do for you. He can break any bondage, a 479 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:40,160 Speaker 4: bondage of addiction, a bondage of depression, a bondage of poverty, 480 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 4: a bondage of sickness. All it takes is one mighty 481 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 4: act of God's power. I believe in the coming days 482 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 4: there are going to be shouts of joy in your home. 483 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 4: You're going to have some new shouts of victory. God 484 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 4: is going to do amazing things. His outstretched arm is 485 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 4: going to bring supernatural opportunit unities. It's gonna free you 486 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 4: from every bondage. God is gonna turn around situations that 487 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 4: you've been praying about for years, like that young lady. 488 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 4: God is gonna restore relationships that you thought were impossible. 489 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 4: He is going to bring health and wholeness back into 490 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 4: your body. And those dreams, those promises that are on 491 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 4: the inside. They may look too big. You may not 492 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 4: think it's gonna happen, but know this, God still has 493 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 4: a way. Now, all through the day, you need to 494 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 4: imagine God's hand is outstretched towards you. It is a 495 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 4: hand of favor, a hand of healing, a hand of restoration. 496 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 4: And when it looks impossible, don't stay down.
