One day, Adam 15 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: was talking to God. He said, God, why did you 16 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: make Eve so beautiful? God said, so you would love her. 17 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 1: He said, well, God, why did you give her such 18 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,560 Speaker 1: long flowing hair? God said it again, so you would 19 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: love her. Well, God, why did you give her such 20 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: a great figure? God said the same thing, so you 21 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 1: would love her? He said, Okay, God made her so beautiful, 22 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 1: so attractive. Why did you make her so dumb? God 23 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 1: said that's easy, Adam, so she would love. You say 24 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: it like you mean it. This is my Bible. I 25 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,039 Speaker 1: am what it says I am. I have what it 26 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 1: says I have. I can do what it says I 27 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: can do. Today I will be taught the word of God. 28 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 1: I boldly confess. My mind is alert, my heart is receptive. 29 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 1: I will never be the same. In Jesus' name, God 30 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: bless you. I want to talk to you today about 31 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: when God seems too late. We all have things that 32 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: we're believing, for dreams to come to pass and problems 33 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,959 Speaker 1: to turn around. We've been praying, standing in faith, but 34 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: nothing is happening. Now. It seems like we've missed our chance. 35 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: It's too late to have a baby. It's too late 36 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: to start my business, too late to break this addiction. 37 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 1: I've had it so long. But many times God waits 38 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:01,279 Speaker 1: on purpose till the odds are against us. He waits 39 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,639 Speaker 1: till the obstacle is too big, so when he turns 40 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: it around, there won't be any doubt. It was his favor, 41 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,960 Speaker 1: his healing, his power, making a way where there was 42 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 1: no way. Don't be discouraged when it seems too late. 43 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 1: You don't see how it can happen. You're in prime 44 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 1: position for God to show out in your life. God 45 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 1: told Abraham when he was one hundred years old that 46 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: he was going to have a baby. Abraham's wife, Sarah, 47 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: was barren. She had never had children, plus she had 48 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: gone through the change of life. God could have given 49 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,119 Speaker 1: Abraham this promise when he was thirty years old, when 50 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: Sarah was in her prime to have a child, or 51 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: maybe when he was forty years old, a more normal 52 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: age to have a baby. He's God. He has everything 53 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: strategically planned out, down to the smallest details. It's not 54 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: like he forgot or he miscalculated. Oh, I meant to 55 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: give them that promise years earlier. Why did I wait 56 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: so long? God on purpose waited for the odds to 57 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: be against them. On purpose, He waited till they were 58 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: that age. On purpose. He chose Sarah, who was barren 59 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: not able to have children. Maybe God has put promises 60 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: in your heart that seem too late. You don't see 61 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 1: how you could get well, how your child can get 62 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: back on course, how you'll meet the right person. God 63 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: didn't miscalculate. He didn't accidentally choose the wrong person. God 64 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 1: let the odds be against you on purpose. He let 65 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: it seem like it's too big, too late, too far gone. 66 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: You're right where Abraham was a baby, when my wife 67 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: is barren a baby at one hundred years of age. 68 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: God let the circumstances seem impossible. Then he said, now, Abraham, 69 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: I'm going to bless you. God doesn't do things on 70 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: a normal schedule, a normal time frame. He has some 71 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: unscheduled blessings for you, things that are out of season, 72 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: out of the ordinary, that shouldn't happen. Now, Joel, I'm 73 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: past my prime. The medical report says it's too late. 74 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: The financial experts say things should be down. That's when 75 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: God steps in and says, let me show you who 76 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: I am. I'm not limited by time. I'm not affected 77 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: by the economy. I'm not restricted by your age, your background, 78 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: the opposition, by how long it's been. I control the 79 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: universe when I speak. Wounds come back to life when 80 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 1: I speak, Red Sea's part when I speak. Sicknesses leave 81 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: when I speak, Compact centers open up when I speak, 82 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: Addictions are broken, marriages are restored, Opportunities show up. When 83 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,679 Speaker 1: thoughts tell you it's too late, it's never going to happen. Now, 84 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: let that go in one ear and out the other. 85 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: God is faithful. What he promised you is still en round. 86 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 1: You may not see any sign of it every circumstances. 87 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: There's no way things are happening that you can't see 88 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 1: in the unseen realm. God is moving the wrong people 89 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 1: out of the way, lining up the healing, the favor, 90 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:24,239 Speaker 1: the good breaks. They're already on your schedule. But here's 91 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,840 Speaker 1: the key. If you could see how it was going 92 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 1: to happen, that wouldn't take any faith. If God would 93 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: have promised Abraham a child at thirty years old, that 94 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: would have been great. But that wasn't unusual. God is 95 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: going to put promises in your heart that are out 96 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 1: of the ordinary, things that seem unlikely, too big, too 97 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: much money, too much opposition. Now it's up to you 98 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 1: what you do with that promise. Are you going to 99 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: dismiss it? Think that's not for me, No way that 100 00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 1: could happen. Now me get well, Now start my business. 101 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: Now meet the right person. Now do you know how 102 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: long I've been single? God? Where were you twenty years ago? 103 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: How do you know that God has not waited on purpose? 104 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: How do you know, like Abraham and Sarah, that God 105 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 1: didn't let the odds be against you for a reason. 106 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,599 Speaker 1: He's saying to you what he said to them. Now, 107 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: I'm going to bless you now, I'm going to heal you. Now. 108 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 1: I'm going to turn that child around. Now, at this 109 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 1: season in your life, I'm going to cause your business 110 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: to take off. Why don't you receive that into your spirit. 111 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 1: It's not too late. You haven't missed your chance. God 112 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: waited so he can show out in your life. He 113 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: wants to make you an example of his goodness. If 114 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: he did it at a normal time, no one would 115 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 1: have noticed. If he did it under ordinary circumstances, it 116 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: would have been no big deal. Get ready for some 117 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: unscheduled blessings out of season increase, not the normal time. 118 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: Promotion promises that you've given up on dreams, you've let 119 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: go of, you've accepted it's too late to accomplish that goal, 120 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: too late to break the addiction, too late to have 121 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: a baby. That may be true. Looking at a normal schedule, 122 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: you don't see it on there. But God is saying, 123 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: it's still on my schedule. I still have a way 124 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: to bring it to pass. I wouldn't have promised it 125 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: if I wasn't going to do it now all through 126 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 1: the day, Father, Thank you that what you started in 127 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: my life you're going to finish. It may seem too 128 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: late for me, but I know it's not too late 129 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: for you. Thank you for these unscheduled blessings, blessings out 130 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: of season. When Abraham heard that he was going to 131 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: have a child, the scripture says, he laughed to himself 132 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: and said, God, how can I become a father at 133 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: the age of one hundred and Sarah is ninety? How 134 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,119 Speaker 1: can she have a baby. It was so far out 135 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: that it was almost comical. Abraham didn't tell Sarah anything 136 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: about it. He knew she would have thought that he 137 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: had lost his mind. But not long after that, Sarah 138 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: overheard three men talking with Abraham. They said, by this 139 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 1: time next year, Sarah will have a baby. When she 140 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: heard that, she nearly passed out. She did like Abraham. 141 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 1: She laughed and said, God, how could an old woman 142 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: like me have a baby. Plus, my husband is an 143 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: old man. She was saying, if you think I'm bad, 144 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: you should see my husband. God, you found the wrong couple. 145 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: You showed up too late. You better find someone fifty 146 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: years younger than us. She didn't think there was any 147 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: possible way it could happen. Verse thirteen. God said Abraham, 148 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 1: Why did Sarah laugh? Why did she say? Can an 149 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: old woman like me have a baby? Is there anything 150 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 1: too hard for the Lord? Sometimes God puts promises in 151 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 1: our heart that are so big, so unlikely, it's almost funny. 152 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: All we can do is laugh. God, you want me 153 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 1: to step up and pastor the church, and I've only 154 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 1: ministered one time. God, you're saying we're going to get 155 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 1: the compact center. Have you seen how big the opposition is. 156 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,080 Speaker 1: You're saying I'm going to lend and not borrow. Have 157 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 1: you seen my finances? Do you know we're in the 158 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 1: middle of a pandemic? Or God, you say my children 159 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: will be mighty in the land. Have you seen what 160 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: they've been doing lately? Are you sure you have the 161 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: right children? God is saying to you what he said 162 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: to Abraham. Is there anything too hard for the Lord? 163 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 1: He spoke worlds into existence, He parted red seas, he 164 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 1: cured the lepers, He brought the dead back to life. 165 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 1: What you're up against is no match for him. One 166 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: touch of his favor and you'll see promotion, healing, breakthroughs. 167 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: Divine connect. Genesis twenty one says the Lord did exactly 168 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: what he promised. Sarah became pregnant and had a son 169 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: in her old age. The next phrase is the key. 170 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 1: It all happened at the time God said it would. 171 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: God on purpose waited for them to be older. On purpose, 172 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: he waited for the odds to be against them, so 173 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,719 Speaker 1: much so that they both laughed. They both thought it 174 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 1: was impossible. You would think God would say, okay, fine, 175 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: if you don't believe, if you don't think it's going 176 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,439 Speaker 1: to happen, you think it's too far out, I'll find 177 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: someone else. But God is so merciful even when we 178 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: don't believe, even when our faith is limited, God steps 179 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 1: in and says, I'm going to do it anyway. I'm 180 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: going to show you a favor anyway, I'm going to 181 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 1: heal you anyway. I'm going to turn it around anyway. 182 00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: I know sometimes I've released my faith, believed, I've expected, 183 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: and I've seen the goodness of God. But there are 184 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: plenty of times where I didn't have the faith. I 185 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: thought it was too far out, I thought the opposition 186 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 1: was too big. But despite my lack of faith, God 187 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: showed out in my life. That's how good God is 188 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 1: if he only blessed us when we believed we wouldn't 189 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: reach our destiny. Like with Abraham and Sarah, God's going 190 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 1: to do exactly what he promised at the time he 191 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: has planned. It may seem too late, but that's how 192 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: God planned it. It may look impossible, That's how God 193 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: planned it. The medical report may not be good. You 194 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: had a set back in your finances. The odds are 195 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: against you. That doesn't stop our God. You haven't missed 196 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: your chance. The window hasn't closed. And unscheduled blessing is coming, 197 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 1: and out of season promotion is already en route. Healing 198 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 1: breakthroughs the right people, They're already on your calendar. It's 199 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 1: going to happen at the time that God has planned. 200 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 1: Sarah said in verse seven. Who would have ever thought 201 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 1: I would have a baby at such an old age? 202 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: God has some of these Who would have ever thought 203 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: blessings lined up for you? Who would have ever thought 204 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 1: my business would take off like this? Who would have 205 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 1: ever thought I'd meet someone this awesome? Who would have 206 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: ever thought I'd feel this good again? Who would have 207 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 1: ever thought we would be meeting in the former compact center, 208 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 1: Who would have ever thought my mother would still be 209 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 1: with us forty years after being diagnosed with terminal cancer. 210 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 1: Sarah went from laughing in unbelief thinking she was too old, 211 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 1: to laughing with great joy, holding the baby, seeing the 212 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: goodness of God. And some of the promises that God 213 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: has put in your heart may seem like it can't 214 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 1: happen now it's too late. You tried and it didn't 215 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: work out. It's still on the schedule. It hasn't happened 216 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: yet for a reason, it wasn't the right time. Like 217 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,679 Speaker 1: with Sarah, one day you're going to be holding that baby, 218 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 1: so to speak, holding that promise, saying, who would have 219 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 1: ever thought God would have blessed me like this? You're 220 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: going to stand in amazement at what God has in 221 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 1: your future. Now, quit believing those lines that if it 222 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: was going to happen, it would have happened by now. 223 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 1: Come on, if you were going to get well, you'd 224 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,840 Speaker 1: be well by now. If you're going to get that 225 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 1: good break, meet the right person, write that book, surely 226 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: it would have happened by now. Look how long it's been. 227 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: Psalm thirty seven says, don't be impatient for the Lord 228 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 1: to act. Keep traveling steadily along his path, and in 229 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: due season, he will honor you with every blessing. This 230 00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 1: is saying, if you'll keep doing the right thing, then 231 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: everything that has your name on it is coming in. 232 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: There's healing with your name on it. There's a business 233 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: with your name on it. There's a baby with your 234 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 1: name on it. Or how about there's a husband a 235 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 1: wife with your name on it. Don't be impatient. It 236 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: hasn't happened yet. It wasn't supposed to happen. Well, Joel, 237 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 1: I'm getting too old. I think I've missed my season. No, 238 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 1: you're coming into your season. Well, these people at work, 239 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: they turned on me. They always leave me out. They 240 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 1: were supposed to leave you out. It's not setting you back, 241 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: it's setting you up. Keep honoring God, and every blessing 242 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 1: that has your name on it is coming in. People 243 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: can't stop it. Bad breaks can't stop it. Age can't 244 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 1: stop it. Time can't stop it. The economy can't stop it. 245 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: Forces of darkness cannot stop it. Like Sarah, your wound 246 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 1: may be dead, so to speak, in the natural, it's 247 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: too late. It shouldn't happen now. But God knows how 248 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 1: to bring a dead womb back to life. He can 249 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: bring dead dreams back to life, a dead relationship, dead finances, 250 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: dead health, not feeling well. When it's your time to 251 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: give birth, God will resurrect everything you need to see 252 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 1: that baby, not only your womb, but he'll wake up 253 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: the Abrahams, the people you need to fulfill your destiny. 254 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 1: I talked to a young lady. She grew up very 255 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 1: healthy and very active, but at the age of eleven, 256 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: she had a pain in her side that wouldn't go away. 257 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: She had her appendix taken out, but that didn't help. 258 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 1: She continued to go downhill, losing thirty pounds in a 259 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: few weeks, and the doctors were baffled. He couldn't figure 260 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: out what was wrong. She got to where she couldn't swallow, 261 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 1: She lost movement in her legs and arms. She ended 262 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: up in the hospital in a vegetative state, not able 263 00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 1: to open her eyes or communicate in any way. She 264 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: was finally diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disorder that caused 265 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 1: swelling on her brain. Her parents were told that she 266 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: would be in a coma the rest of her life. 267 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 1: She probably wouldn't live that long. Against all odds, they 268 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: believed that God was still in control, that he was 269 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: still a healer. Month after month went by, they would 270 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 1: sit by her bed and talk to her, speaking faith 271 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 1: into her. Two years later, she woke up on the inside. 272 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: She still couldn't move, but she was aware of everything 273 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: that was happening. She could hear the doctors telling her 274 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: parents that she was gone and there was no chance 275 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 1: of recovery, and she could hear her mother telling her 276 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 1: how she loved her and how she was going to 277 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 1: make it. Every Sunday morning, her mother would turn on 278 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 1: our program. This young lady would hear how God is 279 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: a healer, how he can do what medicine cannot do. 280 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:06,439 Speaker 1: In her mind, instead of feeling sorry for herself, she 281 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 1: would say, I'm a victor and not a victne. God 282 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 1: is restoring health back into me. Thoughts told her, you're trapped. 283 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 1: You'll never get out. She would answer back, no, my 284 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: time is coming. This is not how my story ends. 285 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: It seemed like God was too late. In a coma, 286 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 1: trapped inside her own body, not able to communicate. But 287 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: God has the final say. Sometimes he'll let the odds 288 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 1: be weigh against you just so he can show his power, 289 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 1: his favor his blessing in amazing ways. Three years later 290 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: she opened her eyes. That was a start of a 291 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: long journey back. She learned to speak again, to eat again, 292 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: to move again. Everything came back except her legs. She 293 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 1: was paralyzed from the waist down. She was happy that 294 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: she was out, grateful to be in a wheelchair, but 295 00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:10,200 Speaker 1: she wasn't satisfied. She knew what God started he would finish. 296 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: She was told that she would never be able to walk, 297 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 1: but through prayer, hard work, training, she defied the odds 298 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: and took her first steps. Today, my friend Victoria Arlen 299 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: can not only walk, but she can run. She was 300 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: on Dancing with the Stars. She's one of ESPN's youngest 301 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 1: on air personalities. Is there anything too hard for the Lord? 302 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: Just because it seems like God is too late doesn't 303 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,879 Speaker 1: mean that he's not going to come through. Don't be 304 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 1: fool by the circumstances. You may not see anything. The 305 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:47,120 Speaker 1: odds are against you. The experts say it's not going 306 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 1: to work out. God controls the universe. Don't be impatient 307 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:56,199 Speaker 1: for him to act. Keep believing, keep praying, and every 308 00:18:56,240 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: blessing that belongs to you will show up. You won't 309 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 1: have to go after it. It's going to come to you. 310 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 1: It's going to happen at the time God has planned. 311 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: In John chapter eleven, Mary and Martha sent word to 312 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 1: their dear friend Jesus that their brother Lazarus was very sick. 313 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 1: Jesus was in another city. They asked if he would 314 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 1: come and pray for Lazarus. A day went by and 315 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 1: Jesus didn't show up. I can imagine Mary asking her assistant, 316 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 1: did you tell him it was me? Yes, we told him. 317 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: Did you let him know it was urgent? Yes, we did. 318 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: Another day passed he didn't come, and another and another. Finally, 319 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 1: Lazarus died. On the fourth day, Jesus showed up. What 320 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,880 Speaker 1: do you do when God shows up too late? You prayed, 321 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 1: you believed, but the problem didn't turn around, The business 322 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,679 Speaker 1: didn't make it, your health didn't get better. Martha was 323 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: so upset she rushed out to meet him. Said, Jesus, 324 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: if if you would have been here sooner, my brother 325 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: wouldn't have died. She was saying, how could you do 326 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 1: this to us? We're your friends. When we needed you 327 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,880 Speaker 1: the most, you let us down. They thought that Jesus 328 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: didn't care that he was too busy, preoccupied with others. 329 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 1: But the scripture says, Jesus wept. He could have gone 330 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: straight to the tomb and raised Lazarus, but his tears 331 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 1: let them know that he cared. He wept because he 332 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: loved Lazarus. He wept because he felt the sorrow, the 333 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,920 Speaker 1: heaviness that they were all feeling. And when God shows 334 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 1: up late thoughts will tell you God doesn't care about you. 335 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: How could he let this happen? Look at all the pain, 336 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:48,159 Speaker 1: this hearty. He could have stopped it. Don't believe those lives. 337 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: The scripture says, God collects all of your tears in 338 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: a bottle. He feels what you feel, the loneliness, the 339 00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:00,479 Speaker 1: heart ache. He weeps when you weep. His heart breaks 340 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 1: when your heart breaks. You're his child. If you're a parent, 341 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: you know when your child is hurting, you hurt with them. 342 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:12,400 Speaker 1: God is your heavenly father. He told them to roll 343 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:16,360 Speaker 1: away the stone. Lazarus had been dead for four days. 344 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 1: Martha said, Lord, it's going to stink. Sometimes you have 345 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 1: to get to the stinky stuff before God will heal you. 346 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 1: You have to be real and deal with what God 347 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: is bringing to light. Jesus spoke to Lazarus. He didn't pray. 348 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: Some things you need to pray about, but some things 349 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 1: you need to speak too. He said, Lazarus come forth. 350 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 1: All of a sudden, Lazarus came back to life. Mary 351 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: and Martha were praying for a healing, but Jesus had 352 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: something better in mind, a resurrection. Sometimes the reason God 353 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 1: delays is because he's going to do something better than 354 00:21:55,960 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 1: you think, something bigger, more rewarding. From that day forward, 355 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: no one ever saw Lazarus the same way. No one 356 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: saw Mary and Martha the same way. They had a 357 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 1: new respect, a greater influence, greater honor, and like them, 358 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 1: you may be wondering why God is so late. Why 359 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 1: hasn't my health turned around? When is my business going 360 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 1: to get better? When is this trouble going to resolve? 361 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:26,919 Speaker 1: You're believing for a healing. God is delaying because he 362 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 1: has a resurrection coming. He has something much better than 363 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:34,120 Speaker 1: what you have in mind. Trust him. When you don't 364 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 1: see anything happening, Believe when Heaven is silent, he's working 365 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:43,239 Speaker 1: behind the scenes. Every blessing that has your name on it. 366 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,159 Speaker 1: If you will be patient, it's not only going to 367 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 1: find you, it's going to be much better than you think. 368 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: The delay is a sign that God is up to 369 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 1: something big. It's a sign that he's about to show 370 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:59,640 Speaker 1: out in your life. The mistake we make too often 371 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: is we get discouraged in the delays. We believe those 372 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:07,159 Speaker 1: lies that God's not concerned about us. He would have 373 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 1: been here by now. Does he even know what I'm 374 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 1: going through? The scripture says God sees every sparrow, every 375 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 1: little bird that falls to the ground. How much more 376 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,680 Speaker 1: does God see you? You're his child, He made you 377 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:26,880 Speaker 1: in his image. He calls you a masterpiece. He sees 378 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 1: what you're going through. He's concerned, and he's coming at 379 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 1: the time he has planned. In your due season, You're 380 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: going to see breakthroughs, healing, freedom, abundance more than you've imagined. 381 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: After Jesus rose from the dead, Peter was out fishing. 382 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 1: He'd spent the last few years with Jesus as one 383 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 1: of his close friends, and he never dreamed it would 384 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: end with Jesus being crucified. He was discouraged a little 385 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,919 Speaker 1: bit confused, so he went back to doing what he 386 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:02,640 Speaker 1: did before Jesus called him. He had fished all night 387 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 1: and had caught nothing. The next morning, as they were 388 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 1: coming in. Jesus was on the beach. He shouted, have 389 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:14,439 Speaker 1: you caught anything? They didn't recognize him. They told him no. 390 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: He said, throw your net on the right side of 391 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 1: the boat and you'll catch plenty of fish. When they did, 392 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 1: they caught so many fish that they couldn't pull it 393 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: all in. Peter looked over and realized it was Jesus. 394 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: He jumped in the water and swam to the shore. 395 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: When he arrived, he could smell something so tasty, so appetizing. 396 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: Jesus was cooking fish. He told Peter to sit down 397 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 1: and have breakfast with him. He served him grilled fish 398 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,440 Speaker 1: what Peter couldn't catch all night. Now he not only 399 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 1: has a whole boatload of fish, but Jesus has already 400 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 1: cooked it and prepared it for him. When you go 401 00:24:56,800 --> 00:25:00,880 Speaker 1: through a delay, you fished all night. Thing is working. 402 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:04,399 Speaker 1: You're wondering where God is. How come I'm not getting 403 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,360 Speaker 1: any good breaks. If you keep doing the right thing, 404 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 1: God is not only going to give you an abundance, 405 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:14,359 Speaker 1: but you're going to come into some prepared blessings. 406 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 3: Fish that's already cooked, promotion waiting for you. The right people, 407 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,679 Speaker 3: the business, the healing You're not going to have to 408 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 3: make it happen. Start from scratch is going to fall 409 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 3: into place. I can smell something in the air. I 410 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 3: smell fresh fish. I smell prepared blessings. You've had delays. 411 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:39,400 Speaker 3: You're wondering where God is. He's cooking your fish. He's 412 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 3: got the fire on. 413 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,640 Speaker 1: He's about to offer you breakfast, so to speak. You're 414 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,880 Speaker 1: about to see what God has been up to. Don't 415 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 1: be impatient for God to act. Keep honoring him. Every 416 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,879 Speaker 1: blessing that has your name on it will come in. 417 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 1: Nobody is getting your fish. Sometimes when God is not 418 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 1: showing up, we're not seeing things happen. We feel like 419 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: we're falling behind. Others are getting ahead. But God has 420 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 1: all the fish that belongs to you. You tried all 421 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: night so to speak, caught nothing. It's been months or 422 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:19,479 Speaker 1: even years. You haven't seen good breaks, promotion, things turning around. 423 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: Don't worry. Your fish are being stored up. He told 424 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 1: the disciples to throw their nets on the other side 425 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 1: of the boat. That means they're not far away. You 426 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: don't have to do something drastically different. God is going 427 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 1: to bless you where you are. He's going to cause 428 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: the fish to find you. Not a little bit, but 429 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: a great haul of fish. Now you may be in 430 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: a dry season, things are not changing. God sees your faithfulness. 431 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: He hasn't forgotten about you. He's going to make up 432 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: for what hasn't happened, like with Mary and Martha. Not 433 00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: a healing, but a resurrection. I believe and declare boatloads 434 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: of blessings are come in your way.
