WEBVTT - I’m Not Trapped, I’m In Training! (The Basin)

0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:03.239
<v Speaker 1>Hey, I'm coming to you now from the basin.

0:00:04.080 --> 0:00:08.360
<v Speaker 2>This is a special bonus teaching that I recorded just

0:00:08.440 --> 0:00:11.360
<v Speaker 2>for you to break it down a little more, to

0:00:11.440 --> 0:00:13.920
<v Speaker 2>take it a little deeper. I hope you enjoy this

0:00:14.000 --> 0:00:15.040
<v Speaker 2>overflow message.

0:00:15.440 --> 0:00:17.000
<v Speaker 1>Let me know. Let's go.

0:00:22.440 --> 0:00:25.000
<v Speaker 2>I promised you that I would do a bonus teaching

0:00:25.560 --> 0:00:26.320
<v Speaker 2>from the basin.

0:00:26.640 --> 0:00:32.800
<v Speaker 1>Here I am. Here's my Bible digitally.

0:00:35.159 --> 0:00:38.760
<v Speaker 2>I got a big I got a big taper Bible too,

0:00:39.000 --> 0:00:39.720
<v Speaker 2>So don't worry.

0:00:40.400 --> 0:00:41.239
<v Speaker 1>Put this in the.

0:00:41.240 --> 0:00:48.400
<v Speaker 2>Chat right now. I'm not trapped. I'm in training. Put

0:00:48.400 --> 0:00:53.120
<v Speaker 2>it in the comments. Take a moment, write it down.

0:00:54.160 --> 0:01:03.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm not trapped. I'm in training. That was one line

0:01:03.720 --> 0:01:08.360
<v Speaker 2>that I said in my sermon Sunday, one line. And

0:01:08.400 --> 0:01:14.200
<v Speaker 2>I promise you that it is taking me a lifetime,

0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:20.800
<v Speaker 2>a lifetime to learn that perspective. This is not something

0:01:20.840 --> 0:01:24.640
<v Speaker 2>that I naturally am inclined to think. And I'll tell

0:01:24.680 --> 0:01:31.039
<v Speaker 2>you why. I think I am hardwired for pessimism. I

0:01:31.080 --> 0:01:34.880
<v Speaker 2>am not blaming anyone. I am not blaming my mom,

0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:40.080
<v Speaker 2>my dad, their parents, or my babysitter when I was seven.

0:01:40.520 --> 0:01:45.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm not blaming my fifth grade teacher. I'm not blaming putin.

0:01:45.400 --> 0:01:48.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm not blaming the president. I'm not blaming the senator.

0:01:49.160 --> 0:01:55.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm not blaming anybody but me that over time, I

0:01:55.680 --> 0:02:01.080
<v Speaker 2>have developed a tendency to tell myself that I'm trapped.

0:02:02.480 --> 0:02:04.040
<v Speaker 2>I do it in big ways, I do it in

0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:07.320
<v Speaker 2>small ways. I give you a small example, then I

0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:10.399
<v Speaker 2>give you a big example. Then I give you a scripture,

0:02:10.639 --> 0:02:13.600
<v Speaker 2>and then we'll unpack it together in this bonus teaching

0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:14.480
<v Speaker 2>from the basin.

0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:17.280
<v Speaker 1>The sermon was called Delayed Praise.

0:02:18.360 --> 0:02:21.200
<v Speaker 2>Go watch it right now on elevision church YouTube if

0:02:21.200 --> 0:02:23.840
<v Speaker 2>you haven't yet, and then come back to this, because

0:02:24.400 --> 0:02:28.120
<v Speaker 2>this comes from that. This comes from that, This comes

0:02:28.120 --> 0:02:30.320
<v Speaker 2>from that. Put that into comments too. This comes from that.

0:02:31.400 --> 0:02:34.160
<v Speaker 2>And if you saw the sermon already, you'll know that

0:02:34.240 --> 0:02:38.480
<v Speaker 2>kind of has a double meaning. All right, small example,

0:02:40.440 --> 0:02:42.959
<v Speaker 2>Oh man, when I have a task that I need

0:02:43.000 --> 0:02:44.560
<v Speaker 2>to do but kind of don't want to do, I

0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:50.560
<v Speaker 2>will invent obstacles to getting that done. I will invent

0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:58.440
<v Speaker 2>obstacles to getting that done. I will invent a reason that.

0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:01.679
<v Speaker 2>And I want to use a very current example of this.

0:03:02.840 --> 0:03:06.240
<v Speaker 2>I can't study for my sermon right now because I

0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:11.320
<v Speaker 2>only have fifteen minutes. Well I have fifteen minutes, yeah,

0:03:11.320 --> 0:03:12.920
<v Speaker 2>but I only have fifteen minutes.

0:03:13.880 --> 0:03:14.680
<v Speaker 1>So what I did.

0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:19.679
<v Speaker 2>I invented a time obstacle or a time limit where

0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:23.000
<v Speaker 2>I told myself, unless I have a full hour and

0:03:23.040 --> 0:03:26.760
<v Speaker 2>a half, I can't study for my sermon. When the

0:03:26.760 --> 0:03:31.240
<v Speaker 2>truth is, I know my entire sermon library shout out logos,

0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:36.080
<v Speaker 2>Bible software, my entire sermon research library.

0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:38.560
<v Speaker 1>Is on my phone. I don't even have to be

0:03:38.600 --> 0:03:40.280
<v Speaker 1>by my library.

0:03:40.440 --> 0:03:45.120
<v Speaker 2>So the idea that I need all this time and

0:03:45.160 --> 0:03:48.720
<v Speaker 2>a library is a lie because I have my library,

0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:52.160
<v Speaker 2>and there have been many times where I've told myself

0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:55.280
<v Speaker 2>I can't work on my sermon right now, I don't

0:03:55.320 --> 0:04:01.400
<v Speaker 2>have enough time. I invent limited time as a trap.

0:04:01.840 --> 0:04:04.440
<v Speaker 2>When the truth is, let's get to the truth, and

0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:06.480
<v Speaker 2>if you want to kind of write down some keywords here,

0:04:06.520 --> 0:04:11.160
<v Speaker 2>we've got trap truth training.

0:04:11.240 --> 0:04:14.160
<v Speaker 1>Okay. The trap that I tell myself is I don't

0:04:14.200 --> 0:04:14.960
<v Speaker 1>have enough time.

0:04:15.760 --> 0:04:20.840
<v Speaker 2>The truth is I have my entire library, and the

0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:23.960
<v Speaker 2>compressed time fifteen minutes might actually make me go in

0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:27.960
<v Speaker 2>harder and deeper, and it might actually hit me in

0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:31.120
<v Speaker 2>a different way if I do it in the environment

0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:31.560
<v Speaker 2>that I'm in.

0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:32.560
<v Speaker 1>Let's say I'm at.

0:04:33.640 --> 0:04:38.880
<v Speaker 2>Abby softball or Graham's wrestling or I'm with Elijah, and

0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:40.719
<v Speaker 2>I have an idea that I want to look into

0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:44.920
<v Speaker 2>real quick. Doing it in that format that time constraint

0:04:45.400 --> 0:04:49.120
<v Speaker 2>might actually release a different wave of thought than it

0:04:49.120 --> 0:04:51.000
<v Speaker 2>would if I sat down and locked myself in the

0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:51.919
<v Speaker 2>room for three hours.

0:04:52.000 --> 0:04:55.279
<v Speaker 1>Now there's time to sit down and do the extended study,

0:04:55.279 --> 0:04:57.040
<v Speaker 1>and I do that as well.

0:04:57.080 --> 0:05:01.920
<v Speaker 2>But see, I just invented a reason to feel resistance.

0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:05.080
<v Speaker 2>I told myself I was trapped, and the truth is

0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:07.120
<v Speaker 2>I could do a little bit now, a little bit later.

0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:10.719
<v Speaker 2>Another way that I do it, I tell myself the

0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:15.320
<v Speaker 2>story that somebody else doesn't want to do something, when

0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:18.320
<v Speaker 2>the truth of it is I just really don't want

0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:21.960
<v Speaker 2>to reach out to them because I fear rejection. So

0:05:22.120 --> 0:05:24.840
<v Speaker 2>basically I use this thing called prejection. Have you ever

0:05:24.880 --> 0:05:27.680
<v Speaker 2>heard of this? Where I say to myself, they wouldn't

0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:31.040
<v Speaker 2>want to do that, They're not the kind of person

0:05:31.080 --> 0:05:35.479
<v Speaker 2>who would actually, and I will invent their response before

0:05:35.480 --> 0:05:38.760
<v Speaker 2>I even make the request. And when I push through

0:05:38.800 --> 0:05:41.880
<v Speaker 2>that many times, i'd say over half the time, when

0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:44.680
<v Speaker 2>I ask them for help or when I ask them

0:05:44.680 --> 0:05:48.800
<v Speaker 2>for collaboration, it surprises me how glad they are to

0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:51.200
<v Speaker 2>do it. Maybe not exactly when or what I want,

0:05:51.880 --> 0:05:54.080
<v Speaker 2>but they can do something and sometimes it's even better.

0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:57.560
<v Speaker 2>There have been many times where I've put something on

0:05:57.600 --> 0:05:59.440
<v Speaker 2>a list and then moved it to another list, and

0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:01.080
<v Speaker 2>moved it to a another list, and moved it to

0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:03.159
<v Speaker 2>another list. Oh, I'm going to get around to this,

0:06:03.240 --> 0:06:04.760
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to do that, I'm going to do the other.

0:06:05.360 --> 0:06:08.080
<v Speaker 2>And I keep bouncing it from list to list. And

0:06:08.160 --> 0:06:10.680
<v Speaker 2>I am a list maker. Y'all would be shocked to

0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:14.479
<v Speaker 2>see how many list Maybe.

0:06:14.320 --> 0:06:16.000
<v Speaker 1>You wouldn't be shocked. Maybe you're the same way.

0:06:16.200 --> 0:06:19.000
<v Speaker 2>How many lists I make and I love list and

0:06:19.040 --> 0:06:23.200
<v Speaker 2>they're amazing when I am moving through the list and

0:06:23.240 --> 0:06:26.520
<v Speaker 2>bringing the list into my real life. But see, if

0:06:26.560 --> 0:06:28.640
<v Speaker 2>all I do is invent things on a list that

0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:31.719
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to get around to when a certain person

0:06:31.760 --> 0:06:34.200
<v Speaker 2>gets back to me or when I have more information,

0:06:34.960 --> 0:06:36.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm really lying to myself.

0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:39.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm trapped in the concept.

0:06:38.920 --> 0:06:42.679
<v Speaker 2>Of what I want to do rather than doing something

0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:46.480
<v Speaker 2>concrete to move forward. I wrote down a little phrase

0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:53.200
<v Speaker 2>for myself yesterday. Really cool phrase. It said, First, I'll

0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:56.800
<v Speaker 2>put it as a question, am I working toward what

0:06:56.880 --> 0:06:57.760
<v Speaker 2>I'm wishing for?

0:06:59.520 --> 0:07:02.400
<v Speaker 1>In that power powerful? Put that in the comments?

0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:08.640
<v Speaker 2>Am I working toward what I'm wishing for, because I

0:07:08.640 --> 0:07:10.800
<v Speaker 2>think we all get an idea of like, oh man,

0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:13.440
<v Speaker 2>I would love to have more family dinners. Oh I

0:07:13.480 --> 0:07:17.280
<v Speaker 2>would love to take more time to actually develop myself spiritually.

0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:20.960
<v Speaker 2>Oh I would actually love to read through the Bible

0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:25.120
<v Speaker 2>one day when you know it's it's a wish list.

0:07:26.200 --> 0:07:30.120
<v Speaker 2>But I found out that we don't get results from

0:07:30.160 --> 0:07:36.200
<v Speaker 2>our wish list. We get results from our workflow wish list.

0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:37.080
<v Speaker 1>It's good to.

0:07:37.120 --> 0:07:38.520
<v Speaker 2>Dream now and to Him is able to do a

0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:40.640
<v Speaker 2>measureably more than we ask or imagine, according this power

0:07:40.720 --> 0:07:44.320
<v Speaker 2>that works mightily in us. I mean, there are desires

0:07:44.320 --> 0:07:47.080
<v Speaker 2>God puts in your heart. Some thirty seven four says

0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:49.400
<v Speaker 2>that He will give you the desires of your heart.

0:07:50.160 --> 0:07:54.280
<v Speaker 2>We read a scripture this week or so powerful. When

0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:58.320
<v Speaker 2>we read it, we could almost barely believe it because

0:07:58.360 --> 0:08:00.800
<v Speaker 2>it came at the end of a sermon where we

0:08:00.840 --> 0:08:03.040
<v Speaker 2>had been talking the whole sermon.

0:08:04.520 --> 0:08:07.200
<v Speaker 1>About That's why I trust Him.

0:08:07.240 --> 0:08:10.120
<v Speaker 2>From our new song trust in God that just released,

0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:14.200
<v Speaker 2>and how when we're making lists in our mind of

0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:17.320
<v Speaker 2>things that God has done for us, starting with what

0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:19.600
<v Speaker 2>He did for us on Calvary when he gave his son,

0:08:20.560 --> 0:08:24.360
<v Speaker 2>how he redeemed us and delivered us from sin, How

0:08:24.360 --> 0:08:27.360
<v Speaker 2>he delivered us from our fear, how he took away

0:08:27.400 --> 0:08:27.880
<v Speaker 2>our shame.

0:08:27.960 --> 0:08:30.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that is the greatest.

0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:34.600
<v Speaker 2>Thing that he's done forgiven us, made us a new creation,

0:08:34.800 --> 0:08:38.480
<v Speaker 2>given us his Holy spirit. That's why I trust him

0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:41.760
<v Speaker 2>with these bills. That's why I trust him with this

0:08:42.400 --> 0:08:46.680
<v Speaker 2>situation with my family member. That's why I trust him

0:08:46.920 --> 0:08:50.080
<v Speaker 2>with this business deal. That's why I trust him in

0:08:50.160 --> 0:08:54.120
<v Speaker 2>this real estate transaction. That's why I trust him to

0:08:54.280 --> 0:08:58.720
<v Speaker 2>apologize and leave justice in his hands for the part

0:08:58.520 --> 0:09:01.320
<v Speaker 2>that I think the other person did wrong. Because of

0:09:01.800 --> 0:09:05.480
<v Speaker 2>all of the things that he did for me that

0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:09.240
<v Speaker 2>money can't buy and that the world can't take away.

0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:11.800
<v Speaker 1>That's why I trust him.

0:09:12.080 --> 0:09:14.520
<v Speaker 2>And I did a whole segment of discermon about that's

0:09:14.600 --> 0:09:18.920
<v Speaker 2>why and how we're all going through a this in

0:09:18.960 --> 0:09:25.480
<v Speaker 2>our life, a struggle, a delay, a setback. For many,

0:09:25.520 --> 0:09:28.640
<v Speaker 2>its depression for many, its anxiety. But for many it

0:09:28.760 --> 0:09:32.320
<v Speaker 2>is not that easily labeled or diagnosed. It's just a

0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:35.959
<v Speaker 2>situation that I can't figure out. We all have a

0:09:36.080 --> 0:09:39.000
<v Speaker 2>this that we're having to trust God in this. Well,

0:09:39.000 --> 0:09:42.720
<v Speaker 2>look what the scripture said in one John five, He

0:09:42.800 --> 0:09:44.520
<v Speaker 2>said this verse fourteen.

0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:47.520
<v Speaker 1>You're not gonna believe how beautiful the scripture is.

0:09:47.880 --> 0:09:53.840
<v Speaker 2>This is the confidence we have in approaching God that

0:09:54.840 --> 0:09:58.320
<v Speaker 2>if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.

0:09:58.640 --> 0:10:01.720
<v Speaker 2>Now we can't just make up our and okay, God,

0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:04.760
<v Speaker 2>I want four supermodel wives.

0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:08.320
<v Speaker 1>I want to I want to have.

0:10:09.960 --> 0:10:13.920
<v Speaker 2>Big biceps and a type korps and no workout regimen,

0:10:14.240 --> 0:10:17.800
<v Speaker 2>any five thousand calories a day, you know, come on, Like,

0:10:19.280 --> 0:10:21.920
<v Speaker 2>we got to get within the will of God and

0:10:22.000 --> 0:10:26.240
<v Speaker 2>the purpose of God and then ask him and have

0:10:26.360 --> 0:10:29.959
<v Speaker 2>confidence in this that if we ask anything cording to

0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:33.000
<v Speaker 2>as well, he hears us. I sought the Lord, and

0:10:33.040 --> 0:10:37.439
<v Speaker 2>he heard, and he answered, if you watch the sermon,

0:10:37.480 --> 0:10:40.760
<v Speaker 2>you already saw how That's why I trust him, because

0:10:40.760 --> 0:10:42.440
<v Speaker 2>I have confidence that he hears me.

0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:45.880
<v Speaker 1>Like Jesus standing at the grave of.

0:10:45.920 --> 0:10:50.920
<v Speaker 2>Lazarus, who was dead inside, and Jesus prayed and he said, Father,

0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:52.319
<v Speaker 2>I thank you.

0:10:52.280 --> 0:10:54.880
<v Speaker 1>That you hear me. I know you always hear me.

0:10:55.679 --> 0:10:58.200
<v Speaker 2>I just said that for the benefit of those listenings,

0:10:58.240 --> 0:11:01.360
<v Speaker 2>so that they can see the relate relationship that we

0:11:01.480 --> 0:11:03.560
<v Speaker 2>have and give the glory to you when you do

0:11:03.640 --> 0:11:04.199
<v Speaker 2>what you're.

0:11:04.040 --> 0:11:04.680
<v Speaker 1>About to do.

0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:08.679
<v Speaker 2>So when I ask God, I have to come into

0:11:08.720 --> 0:11:11.040
<v Speaker 2>the confidence that he hears me.

0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:13.240
<v Speaker 1>But it gets better verse fifteen.

0:11:13.320 --> 0:11:17.480
<v Speaker 2>And if we know, if we know that somebody put

0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:18.840
<v Speaker 2>in the comments, I know that.

0:11:20.400 --> 0:11:21.760
<v Speaker 1>I know that he hears me.

0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.000
<v Speaker 2>God's not death, his arm isn't short, his hand isn't

0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:27.160
<v Speaker 2>slack that he can't save. He can deliver me from

0:11:27.160 --> 0:11:33.880
<v Speaker 2>my fears ps Psalm thirty four, verse three. And if

0:11:33.880 --> 0:11:36.679
<v Speaker 2>we know that he hears us, there's the word that again,

0:11:37.600 --> 0:11:41.440
<v Speaker 2>whatever we ask in accordance with His will, we know

0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:50.800
<v Speaker 2>that we have what we asked of him. So am

0:11:50.880 --> 0:11:54.520
<v Speaker 2>I working toward what I'm wishing for? And am I

0:11:54.800 --> 0:12:01.360
<v Speaker 2>asking God with the confidence that he hears me? Do

0:12:01.400 --> 0:12:05.360
<v Speaker 2>I know that? Or have I allowed the enemy to

0:12:05.440 --> 0:12:07.520
<v Speaker 2>make me believe? Watch this, I'm gonna go real deep,

0:12:07.559 --> 0:12:11.720
<v Speaker 2>real quick. So you gotta get ready to suddenly believe

0:12:13.760 --> 0:12:19.920
<v Speaker 2>that my prayers are powerless, To suddenly believe that the

0:12:19.960 --> 0:12:22.200
<v Speaker 2>way it is is the way it's always going to be.

0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:25.280
<v Speaker 2>To suddenly believe that it doesn't matter what I do,

0:12:25.360 --> 0:12:26.240
<v Speaker 2>things are how they are.

0:12:27.200 --> 0:12:28.440
<v Speaker 1>It is what it is.

0:12:28.640 --> 0:12:31.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, it is what it is, but that's not the

0:12:31.559 --> 0:12:36.640
<v Speaker 2>end of it. That's not the end of it. So

0:12:36.880 --> 0:12:42.480
<v Speaker 2>acceptance comes first. This situation is what it is. Sick

0:12:42.520 --> 0:12:51.200
<v Speaker 2>in my body, hurting, betrayed, feeling weak.

0:12:52.840 --> 0:12:54.240
<v Speaker 1>That's fine.

0:12:55.040 --> 0:12:59.240
<v Speaker 2>I ask God to show me direction for the next

0:12:59.320 --> 0:13:02.240
<v Speaker 2>best thing that He's called me to do. And then

0:13:02.280 --> 0:13:05.800
<v Speaker 2>I believe by faith that whatever he tells me to

0:13:05.840 --> 0:13:09.320
<v Speaker 2>do will be a step toward what I'm asking him for.

0:13:09.440 --> 0:13:14.360
<v Speaker 2>And I take it. Take the step, Take the step

0:13:15.080 --> 0:13:20.120
<v Speaker 2>in confidence. And as you move forward in this season,

0:13:20.240 --> 0:13:23.400
<v Speaker 2>this struggle, as you move through this stronghold, as you

0:13:23.480 --> 0:13:27.040
<v Speaker 2>take this step of obedience to God, whatever that may

0:13:27.080 --> 0:13:30.319
<v Speaker 2>be for you, whatever that may be.

0:13:30.360 --> 0:13:34.160
<v Speaker 1>For you, you.

0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:33.840
<v Speaker 2>Have And this is what my brother in law was

0:13:33.880 --> 0:13:37.960
<v Speaker 2>texting me about yesterday. From the message, you have so

0:13:38.120 --> 0:13:43.520
<v Speaker 2>many that's to look back on that were formerly a

0:13:43.840 --> 0:13:46.040
<v Speaker 2>this in your life. Oh, I'm never going to get

0:13:46.040 --> 0:13:49.320
<v Speaker 2>through this, and you did. I don't know what to

0:13:49.360 --> 0:13:53.760
<v Speaker 2>do about this, but God gave you away through it. Oh,

0:13:53.800 --> 0:13:56.079
<v Speaker 2>if this happens, I can't handle it. I won't be

0:13:56.120 --> 0:14:00.000
<v Speaker 2>able to make it. And this happened. I'm clean up

0:14:00.200 --> 0:14:03.559
<v Speaker 2>the statement a little bit. They say this happens, they

0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:07.280
<v Speaker 2>say something else. I'm saying, this happens. And then God

0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:11.600
<v Speaker 2>steps in and delivers you, and he keeps you and

0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:16.800
<v Speaker 2>you say, oh, he got me through that. Now as

0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:21.240
<v Speaker 2>you go through this, whatever it currently is, today.

0:14:22.400 --> 0:14:24.160
<v Speaker 1>You say, this is the day the Lord has made.

0:14:24.200 --> 0:14:28.160
<v Speaker 1>I will rejoice and be glad in it. Why because

0:14:29.000 --> 0:14:34.400
<v Speaker 1>I know that He is with me.

0:14:35.040 --> 0:14:38.440
<v Speaker 2>I want you to put like at least one I

0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:41.800
<v Speaker 2>know that in the chat right now, in the comments

0:14:41.880 --> 0:14:44.880
<v Speaker 2>right now, do it say I know that God loves me.

0:14:45.480 --> 0:14:49.360
<v Speaker 2>I know that God is good. I know that He's

0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:53.600
<v Speaker 2>in control. I know that I'm forgiven. I know that

0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:57.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm his child. I know that all things work together

0:14:57.760 --> 0:15:01.640
<v Speaker 2>for my good. I know that he knows the plans

0:15:02.000 --> 0:15:06.160
<v Speaker 2>he has for me. And now I'm not only asking

0:15:06.640 --> 0:15:10.960
<v Speaker 2>for what I'm believing him for. And I use the

0:15:11.000 --> 0:15:14.359
<v Speaker 2>word wish because it gets a little bit more specific.

0:15:16.480 --> 0:15:20.560
<v Speaker 2>Am I working toward what I'm wishing for according to

0:15:20.600 --> 0:15:24.160
<v Speaker 2>His will? And I believe God wants to get us

0:15:24.200 --> 0:15:26.680
<v Speaker 2>to the place watch this. This is strong, but I

0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:30.600
<v Speaker 2>believe it where what we wish and what He wills

0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:35.080
<v Speaker 2>become one and the same as we move forward. Now

0:15:35.480 --> 0:15:40.080
<v Speaker 2>that's a process. I know it is. I know it is.

0:15:41.720 --> 0:15:44.960
<v Speaker 2>And when I said earlier, this comes from that. And

0:15:45.000 --> 0:15:48.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm talking about how my teaching today comes from a sermon.

0:15:48.880 --> 0:15:49.760
<v Speaker 1>Your life is like that.

0:15:51.320 --> 0:15:54.120
<v Speaker 2>You know, when David was running from Saul, I talked

0:15:54.120 --> 0:15:57.520
<v Speaker 2>about seven years he ran from Saul. I talked about

0:15:57.520 --> 0:16:01.520
<v Speaker 2>how he had to have this space between when God

0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:03.680
<v Speaker 2>showed him what he was going to be a king,

0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:06.280
<v Speaker 2>and he showed him that when he was a little kid,

0:16:06.880 --> 0:16:10.960
<v Speaker 2>only seventeen years old. But there was a space where

0:16:11.000 --> 0:16:13.440
<v Speaker 2>he was running from Saul and he had to go

0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:18.640
<v Speaker 2>hide in the caves with six hundred vagabond men, I mean, oh,

0:16:18.760 --> 0:16:24.680
<v Speaker 2>distressed and broke and discouraged and worn out and in debt.

0:16:24.760 --> 0:16:26.440
<v Speaker 1>And that's who David had around him.

0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:29.480
<v Speaker 2>A lot of them were his family members, and he

0:16:29.520 --> 0:16:32.200
<v Speaker 2>spent a lot of time in what we would call disappointment.

0:16:32.800 --> 0:16:34.600
<v Speaker 2>But here's one thing I didn't really get to say

0:16:34.800 --> 0:16:40.240
<v Speaker 2>on my message. At the time, it felt like disappointment,

0:16:41.160 --> 0:16:43.440
<v Speaker 2>but now I see it was development.

0:16:44.640 --> 0:16:44.960
<v Speaker 1>Again.

0:16:46.720 --> 0:16:50.960
<v Speaker 2>At the time, it felt like disappointment, but now I

0:16:51.000 --> 0:16:56.560
<v Speaker 2>see it as development. When David first Samuel twenty seven,

0:16:59.600 --> 0:17:04.880
<v Speaker 2>was high in the territory of the Philistines, he made

0:17:04.880 --> 0:17:08.760
<v Speaker 2>this statement, one of these days I will be destroyed

0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:11.120
<v Speaker 2>by the hand of Saul. The best thing I can

0:17:11.160 --> 0:17:15.840
<v Speaker 2>do is escape to the land of the Philistines. Oh,

0:17:15.920 --> 0:17:19.720
<v Speaker 2>that must have been so disappointing for David. He wanted

0:17:19.720 --> 0:17:22.120
<v Speaker 2>to help Saul. He wanted to fight for his people.

0:17:22.680 --> 0:17:25.280
<v Speaker 2>He wanted to settle in. He wanted to use his gift.

0:17:26.359 --> 0:17:30.960
<v Speaker 2>He's in his twenties and developing, and yet.

0:17:30.960 --> 0:17:32.320
<v Speaker 1>He's so disappointed.

0:17:32.359 --> 0:17:37.000
<v Speaker 2>But the disappointment is development. He has to go hide

0:17:37.000 --> 0:17:42.040
<v Speaker 2>amongst the enemy. But God was doing something in him

0:17:42.800 --> 0:17:45.560
<v Speaker 2>while he was hiding amongst his enemy.

0:17:46.800 --> 0:17:48.360
<v Speaker 1>Write this down, put it in the comments.

0:17:48.760 --> 0:17:54.960
<v Speaker 2>God is using my enemy to do something in me.

0:17:56.680 --> 0:18:01.280
<v Speaker 2>God is using my enemy to do something in me.

0:18:02.520 --> 0:18:05.600
<v Speaker 2>By enemy here, I don't mean Philistines. I don't even

0:18:05.720 --> 0:18:09.240
<v Speaker 2>mean other people necessarily, although it can be. But even

0:18:09.240 --> 0:18:11.919
<v Speaker 2>they're not the enemy. We wrestle not against flesh and blood.

0:18:13.119 --> 0:18:18.040
<v Speaker 2>God is using circumstances that are uncomfortable for you. God

0:18:18.119 --> 0:18:23.159
<v Speaker 2>is using situations that feel unstable for you to stabilize

0:18:23.200 --> 0:18:27.080
<v Speaker 2>you so that you can say, Greater is he that

0:18:27.200 --> 0:18:29.200
<v Speaker 2>is in me than my enemy?

0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:33.480
<v Speaker 1>Say it out loud. Greater is he that is in

0:18:33.560 --> 0:18:37.159
<v Speaker 1>me than my enemy. Greater is he that is in

0:18:37.200 --> 0:18:39.080
<v Speaker 1>me than my insecurity.

0:18:40.000 --> 0:18:45.000
<v Speaker 2>Greater is he that is in me than any incompetency.

0:18:45.119 --> 0:18:49.000
<v Speaker 1>God is developing me. God is disciplining me.

0:18:49.280 --> 0:18:55.120
<v Speaker 2>Not in a punishment oriented way, no, but for purpose,

0:18:56.320 --> 0:18:57.200
<v Speaker 2>for progress.

0:18:57.560 --> 0:18:58.760
<v Speaker 1>That's what it's been about.

0:19:00.000 --> 0:19:05.480
<v Speaker 2>I spent sixteen months amongst the Philistines, sixteen months amongst

0:19:05.520 --> 0:19:06.120
<v Speaker 2>his enemies.

0:19:06.920 --> 0:19:09.160
<v Speaker 1>But what was David learning while he was there?

0:19:10.560 --> 0:19:14.840
<v Speaker 2>He was learning how Philistines fight, because these were.

0:19:14.680 --> 0:19:17.480
<v Speaker 1>The enemies he would defeat. I feel gone on that

0:19:17.720 --> 0:19:20.800
<v Speaker 1>God is using this season to get you ready.

0:19:21.560 --> 0:19:23.760
<v Speaker 2>Like they used to say in the Baptist Church, God

0:19:24.240 --> 0:19:27.960
<v Speaker 2>is preparing me for what He has prepared for me.

0:19:28.480 --> 0:19:32.680
<v Speaker 1>That's it. I'm not trapped. I'm in training.

0:19:33.880 --> 0:19:37.960
<v Speaker 2>God gives you resistance, training to teach you the revelation

0:19:38.080 --> 0:19:41.400
<v Speaker 2>of who he is so you will seek him. I

0:19:41.600 --> 0:19:46.359
<v Speaker 2>sought the Lord, and he heard and he answered. But

0:19:46.440 --> 0:19:50.760
<v Speaker 2>what David doesn't say anything about is the space between that.

0:19:50.880 --> 0:19:56.119
<v Speaker 1>Is training, that's you. Right now, you're feeling trapped. I

0:19:56.160 --> 0:19:56.560
<v Speaker 1>know you are.

0:19:56.600 --> 0:19:59.040
<v Speaker 2>You're feeling like, this isn't the life I wanted. This

0:19:59.080 --> 0:20:01.840
<v Speaker 2>isn't where I wanted to be at this stage. I

0:20:01.880 --> 0:20:04.080
<v Speaker 2>wanted to be farther along. I wanted to have more money,

0:20:04.119 --> 0:20:07.600
<v Speaker 2>I wanted to have more whatever education. I wanted to

0:20:07.640 --> 0:20:10.439
<v Speaker 2>have more data on this. I wanted to have more people.

0:20:10.640 --> 0:20:13.200
<v Speaker 2>That's okay, and maybe you could have if you had

0:20:13.200 --> 0:20:15.520
<v Speaker 2>done it a little differently. We all make mistakes. The

0:20:15.600 --> 0:20:18.560
<v Speaker 2>point of this message is right now that the grace

0:20:18.600 --> 0:20:21.640
<v Speaker 2>of God can fill that space. The grace of God

0:20:21.680 --> 0:20:25.320
<v Speaker 2>can fill that space between where you thought you'd be

0:20:25.359 --> 0:20:26.880
<v Speaker 2>and who you want to be, and where you are

0:20:26.880 --> 0:20:29.320
<v Speaker 2>and who you are. Let the grace of God in.

0:20:31.440 --> 0:20:33.879
<v Speaker 2>Let him train you in his grace. Be strong in

0:20:33.920 --> 0:20:38.320
<v Speaker 2>the grace, Paul told Timothy somebody looked that scripture up

0:20:38.640 --> 0:20:40.240
<v Speaker 2>and put it in the comments for us, because I

0:20:40.280 --> 0:20:43.480
<v Speaker 2>don't know exactly where it is, but God is saying today,

0:20:43.560 --> 0:20:46.840
<v Speaker 2>be strong in the grace. I want to hear from

0:20:46.880 --> 0:20:51.040
<v Speaker 2>you right now on these comments. I want to hear

0:20:51.480 --> 0:20:54.359
<v Speaker 2>from you right now, not only what is a that

0:20:54.600 --> 0:20:58.720
<v Speaker 2>in your life that you know God is going to

0:20:58.720 --> 0:21:02.520
<v Speaker 2>bring you through, not because you can see it with

0:21:02.560 --> 0:21:05.240
<v Speaker 2>your senses, but because you've tasted and seen.

0:21:06.000 --> 0:21:07.440
<v Speaker 1>That the Lord is good.

0:21:08.880 --> 0:21:10.840
<v Speaker 2>I want to know what in your life right now

0:21:11.440 --> 0:21:14.000
<v Speaker 2>is the next best thing that God is calling you

0:21:14.040 --> 0:21:16.280
<v Speaker 2>to do. And I want it to be so specific. Okay,

0:21:17.400 --> 0:21:19.320
<v Speaker 2>I want to know what's on your list that you

0:21:19.560 --> 0:21:22.960
<v Speaker 2>need to move into your real life. What's on your

0:21:23.000 --> 0:21:26.560
<v Speaker 2>list of that that you've already seen God? Do I

0:21:26.680 --> 0:21:28.399
<v Speaker 2>use that as a what do you call it an

0:21:28.440 --> 0:21:32.520
<v Speaker 2>acronym and acrostic? I don't remember the technical term. Things

0:21:32.680 --> 0:21:37.200
<v Speaker 2>he already taught me, Things he already told you, things

0:21:37.200 --> 0:21:38.520
<v Speaker 2>he already brought you through.

0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:42.919
<v Speaker 1>Thhat what's the that that you need to hold to

0:21:43.080 --> 0:21:45.720
<v Speaker 1>as you go through this? Is it a verse? Is

0:21:45.760 --> 0:21:47.720
<v Speaker 1>it an affirmation? Is it a faith confession?

0:21:48.960 --> 0:21:51.159
<v Speaker 2>And then what's the next thing that He's called you

0:21:51.200 --> 0:21:54.640
<v Speaker 2>to do to move into the role that He's revealed

0:21:54.640 --> 0:21:57.159
<v Speaker 2>to you about who you are, who you're to be,

0:21:57.760 --> 0:22:01.439
<v Speaker 2>how you're to respond, not just react, because if you

0:22:01.440 --> 0:22:04.280
<v Speaker 2>live your life in reaction mode in the season of

0:22:04.320 --> 0:22:09.359
<v Speaker 2>your life, you are going to prolong the season of pain.

0:22:10.560 --> 0:22:14.240
<v Speaker 2>You are going to prolong the season of paralysis. No,

0:22:14.920 --> 0:22:19.359
<v Speaker 2>You've got to just move toward what you believe God's

0:22:19.400 --> 0:22:22.560
<v Speaker 2>will is. And for David that looked very messy for

0:22:22.640 --> 0:22:27.119
<v Speaker 2>sixteen months and for seven years, it looked like that

0:22:27.200 --> 0:22:28.080
<v Speaker 2>he was moving.

0:22:27.840 --> 0:22:29.959
<v Speaker 1>Away from what God gave him.

0:22:30.000 --> 0:22:31.760
<v Speaker 2>And we all feel that way, like, Oh, I feel

0:22:31.760 --> 0:22:36.280
<v Speaker 2>like it's two steps forward, four steps back. But I

0:22:36.359 --> 0:22:39.240
<v Speaker 2>used a powerful illustration at the end of my sermon Sunday,

0:22:40.280 --> 0:22:42.400
<v Speaker 2>and you can go and watch it right now if

0:22:42.400 --> 0:22:46.359
<v Speaker 2>you didn't see it, how even the song trust in

0:22:46.400 --> 0:22:50.480
<v Speaker 2>God that we wrote, even that song was made so

0:22:50.560 --> 0:22:53.919
<v Speaker 2>much better by a delay, a slight delay in the

0:22:53.960 --> 0:22:57.639
<v Speaker 2>writing room. And you can see that illustrated in real time,

0:22:58.480 --> 0:23:02.840
<v Speaker 2>that sometimes God pushes back the that that you're waiting

0:23:02.880 --> 0:23:03.879
<v Speaker 2>for the next that.

0:23:05.040 --> 0:23:06.920
<v Speaker 1>So you will learn to trust Him in this because

0:23:06.960 --> 0:23:08.400
<v Speaker 1>you're in training.

0:23:09.920 --> 0:23:11.800
<v Speaker 2>The final thought, I want you to write down now,

0:23:12.960 --> 0:23:14.400
<v Speaker 2>and I'm going to look and see if you'll put

0:23:14.400 --> 0:23:15.600
<v Speaker 2>this stuff in the comments.

0:23:16.160 --> 0:23:17.880
<v Speaker 1>If you put it into comments, I'm gonna.

0:23:17.680 --> 0:23:20.199
<v Speaker 2>Do another one of these because it'll let me know

0:23:20.240 --> 0:23:22.440
<v Speaker 2>that you're listening and it's working and it's worth it.

0:23:23.520 --> 0:23:26.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna make these videos either way. I make a

0:23:26.600 --> 0:23:30.119
<v Speaker 2>teaching video each day, but I'll put more on them,

0:23:30.200 --> 0:23:33.119
<v Speaker 2>more of them on here if I know it's helping you,

0:23:33.160 --> 0:23:34.199
<v Speaker 2>because that's what I want to do.

0:23:35.680 --> 0:23:37.240
<v Speaker 1>But I want you to put this is training.

0:23:38.680 --> 0:23:43.800
<v Speaker 2>This is training, and I want you to see an

0:23:43.800 --> 0:23:47.840
<v Speaker 2>offense in your life as this is training. I want

0:23:47.880 --> 0:23:50.800
<v Speaker 2>you to see a delay in your life as Oh

0:23:50.800 --> 0:23:55.480
<v Speaker 2>God is pushing back. That's the resistance training. Ooh, it's

0:23:55.600 --> 0:23:58.920
<v Speaker 2>resistance training. You know what I mean by that. When

0:23:58.960 --> 0:24:02.960
<v Speaker 2>you use weights or bad something, that's resistance training. God

0:24:03.080 --> 0:24:08.120
<v Speaker 2>trains us through allowing us to experience resistance, and we go, oh, well,

0:24:08.200 --> 0:24:10.719
<v Speaker 2>it wasn't easy. It must not be God, are you crazy?

0:24:10.800 --> 0:24:14.680
<v Speaker 2>Jesus went to a cross and endured it, despising it

0:24:14.800 --> 0:24:17.760
<v Speaker 2>shame for the joy set before him.

0:24:19.560 --> 0:24:21.640
<v Speaker 1>I want you to stop telling yourself. I'm trapped.

0:24:21.840 --> 0:24:23.640
<v Speaker 2>Many of you are trapped in the story that you're

0:24:23.680 --> 0:24:28.640
<v Speaker 2>telling yourself. You are telling yourself what David was telling himself.

0:24:28.680 --> 0:24:30.760
<v Speaker 1>He thought to himself, go look it up first Samuel

0:24:31.600 --> 0:24:32.280
<v Speaker 1>twenty seven.

0:24:33.200 --> 0:24:35.359
<v Speaker 2>But David thought to himself, one of these days I

0:24:35.359 --> 0:24:38.240
<v Speaker 2>will be destroyed by the hand of Saul. The best

0:24:38.240 --> 0:24:40.159
<v Speaker 2>thing I can do is escape to the land of

0:24:40.160 --> 0:24:43.040
<v Speaker 2>the Philistines. Then Saul will give up searching for me

0:24:43.240 --> 0:24:46.120
<v Speaker 2>anywhere in Israel, and I will slip out of his hand.

0:24:46.200 --> 0:24:49.840
<v Speaker 1>He felt trapped. He felt like he was in Saul's hand.

0:24:50.000 --> 0:24:55.359
<v Speaker 2>No, David, You're in God's hand, and Saul's hand is

0:24:55.400 --> 0:25:00.280
<v Speaker 2>not greater than God's hand. God is training you. Even

0:25:00.280 --> 0:25:04.040
<v Speaker 2>the resistance of Saul was a tool in the hand

0:25:04.080 --> 0:25:07.919
<v Speaker 2>of God. To train David, even the time spent in

0:25:08.119 --> 0:25:10.360
<v Speaker 2>enemy territory. Where does God have you.

0:25:10.359 --> 0:25:11.440
<v Speaker 1>Right now that you don't want to be?

0:25:11.520 --> 0:25:14.080
<v Speaker 2>I hate this job, I hate this school, I hate

0:25:14.080 --> 0:25:16.080
<v Speaker 2>this relationship, I hate this feeling.

0:25:16.680 --> 0:25:17.560
<v Speaker 1>That's okay to hate it.

0:25:17.600 --> 0:25:20.040
<v Speaker 2>You don't have to like it, but receive it as

0:25:20.080 --> 0:25:24.400
<v Speaker 2>training and do the next best thing.

0:25:25.600 --> 0:25:25.760
<v Speaker 1>Be you.

0:25:25.920 --> 0:25:27.360
<v Speaker 2>God called you to be there. You think I haven't

0:25:27.400 --> 0:25:30.200
<v Speaker 2>had jobs I didn't like. You think I didn't serve

0:25:30.280 --> 0:25:34.280
<v Speaker 2>under leaders that I found difficult to follow. Well, I've

0:25:34.280 --> 0:25:36.760
<v Speaker 2>been a leader that's difficult to follow. God was training

0:25:36.800 --> 0:25:39.480
<v Speaker 2>me in that season, so I could see what that

0:25:39.640 --> 0:25:46.600
<v Speaker 2>was like. And see, I believe God knows that. Whatever

0:25:46.680 --> 0:25:48.879
<v Speaker 2>you don't know. I don't know how he's going to

0:25:48.960 --> 0:25:49.840
<v Speaker 2>do that, he does.

0:25:51.560 --> 0:25:53.320
<v Speaker 1>Well. I don't know where I'm going to be six

0:25:53.359 --> 0:25:56.600
<v Speaker 1>months from now. He does. So can you trust him

0:25:56.640 --> 0:26:04.359
<v Speaker 1>with this because you know that he knows. I don't know,

0:26:05.160 --> 0:26:09.000
<v Speaker 1>but I know that he knows.

0:26:10.359 --> 0:26:13.199
<v Speaker 2>I think that's enough for now. You let me know

0:26:13.240 --> 0:26:16.200
<v Speaker 2>in the comments what you got out of this. I'll

0:26:16.240 --> 0:26:19.320
<v Speaker 2>be reading these comments. I'll remind you.

0:26:19.320 --> 0:26:24.840
<v Speaker 1>One more time. You're not trapped, You're in training. You're

0:26:24.840 --> 0:26:25.680
<v Speaker 1>getting stronger.

0:26:26.760 --> 0:26:29.320
<v Speaker 2>That's what the resistance is for and through the resistance,

0:26:29.359 --> 0:26:34.040
<v Speaker 2>God's going to give you a revelation of his hand,

0:26:34.840 --> 0:26:41.520
<v Speaker 2>his power, his strength, his will. And if you ask

0:26:41.600 --> 0:26:48.119
<v Speaker 2>it according to his will, he hears it. He hears you,

0:26:49.400 --> 0:26:52.800
<v Speaker 2>he hears your heart. Not only does he hear you,

0:26:52.880 --> 0:26:57.560
<v Speaker 2>but one John five fifteen says, and we know that

0:26:57.640 --> 0:26:58.160
<v Speaker 2>we have it.

0:26:58.920 --> 0:27:03.600
<v Speaker 1>I have peace, joy, love, I have it. I have it.

0:27:03.680 --> 0:27:06.639
<v Speaker 1>Say it out loud, I have it. What God wants

0:27:06.680 --> 0:27:11.520
<v Speaker 1>me to have, I have it. I have it. It's

0:27:11.600 --> 0:27:13.200
<v Speaker 1>mine glory to God. It comes from Him.

0:27:14.200 --> 0:27:17.200
<v Speaker 2>Humble myself to know that if I ask it from

0:27:17.240 --> 0:27:18.960
<v Speaker 2>the Father, and if it's in his will, I have it.

0:27:19.880 --> 0:27:25.480
<v Speaker 2>And if I don't have it yet, I know that

0:27:25.560 --> 0:27:29.560
<v Speaker 2>when the time is right, he left me up. And

0:27:29.720 --> 0:27:34.480
<v Speaker 2>until God lifts you, trust him in Jesus's name.

0:27:35.400 --> 0:27:38.920
