But again, 0:02:14.440 --> 0:02:16.760 thank you all for coming out today. And I like 0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:19.000 to start with something funny each week. And I heard 0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:22.120 about this cat and mouse that died on the same 0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:25.120 day and went to heaven. After a couple of weeks, 0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:27.800 Saint Peter saw the mouse and said, hey, how do 0:02:27.840 --> 0:02:30.680 you like it so far? The mouse said it's great, 0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:32.959 but it's so big. I'd love to have a pair 0:02:32.960 --> 0:02:36.359 of roller skates. Peter said, no problem, got him the skates. 0:02:36.600 --> 0:02:39.320 A few weeks later, Peter saw the cat and ask 0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:41.679 him how he liked it, and the cat said, Peter, 0:02:41.800 --> 0:02:44.560 it's fantastic. And just when I thought it couldn't get 0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:50.400 any better, I discovered the meals on wheels. All right, 0:02:50.600 --> 0:02:52.720 hold up your Bible. Say it like you mean it. 0:02:53.120 --> 0:02:55.680 This is my Bible. I am what it says. 0:02:55.680 --> 0:02:56.000 I am. 0:02:56.520 --> 0:02:58.840 I have what it says I have. I can do 0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:01.480 what it says I can do. Today I will be 0:03:01.560 --> 0:03:05.440 taught the word of God. I boldly confess my mind 0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:08.760 is alert, my heart is receptive. I will never be 0:03:08.880 --> 0:03:13.359 the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. I want 0:03:13.360 --> 0:03:17.640 to talk to you today about being glad continually We 0:03:17.680 --> 0:03:21.720 all have opportunities to lose our joy, go around discouraged. 0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:25.680 But God never intended for us to endure life. He 0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:30.160 created us to enjoy life, and we prepare for victory 0:03:30.639 --> 0:03:33.760 or defeat at the very start of the day. When 0:03:33.760 --> 0:03:35.840 you get up in the morning, you have to set 0:03:35.880 --> 0:03:37.520 your mind in the right direction. 0:03:38.320 --> 0:03:39.720 You may feel discouraged. 0:03:40.040 --> 0:03:42.840 You may feel the blaws, thinking I don't want to 0:03:42.880 --> 0:03:45.000 go to work today, I don't want to deal with 0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:48.680 these children. I've got so many problems. If you make 0:03:48.720 --> 0:03:51.720 the mistake of dwelling on those thoughts, then you are 0:03:51.760 --> 0:03:55.320 preparing for a lousy day. You're using your faith in 0:03:55.360 --> 0:03:58.960 the wrong direction. You need to turn it around and say, 0:03:59.080 --> 0:04:01.920 this is going to be a right day. Something good 0:04:02.040 --> 0:04:04.640 is going to happen to me. God has favor in 0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:10.040 my future, and I'm expecting new opportunities, divine connections. 0:04:09.680 --> 0:04:12.320 Supernatural breakthroughs. You know what you just did. 0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:17.600 You prepared for victory, prepared for increase, prepared for restoration. 0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:21.559 God says to the angels, did you hear that? They're 0:04:21.600 --> 0:04:25.960 expecting my goodness. They're expecting to prosper in spite of 0:04:26.000 --> 0:04:29.560 the economy. They're expecting to get well in spite of 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:34.200 the medical report. They're expecting to accomplish their dreams even 0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:37.360 though they don't have the resources right now. When you 0:04:37.480 --> 0:04:40.839 start the day off like that, in faith, God tells 0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:44.440 the angels go to work, arrange things in their favor, 0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:47.960 give them breaks, line up the right people, open up 0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:51.320 the right doors. That's what allows God to show up 0:04:51.600 --> 0:04:54.720 and show out in unusual ways. And some of you 0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:58.200 today would see a major improvement in your life. If 0:04:58.240 --> 0:05:02.040 you'd make this minor adjustment, you not only have more energy, 0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:06.560 a better attitude, be more productive, but you would see 0:05:06.800 --> 0:05:10.640 new doors open, you'd meet new friends, you'd get some 0:05:10.680 --> 0:05:13.800 of those breakthroughs you've been praying for. If you just 0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:17.320 get up in the morning and instead of preparing for defeat, 0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:22.200 prepare for victory, Prepare for increase, prepare for God's favor. 0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:25.800 You have to set the tone at the very start 0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:29.080 of the day. If you leave your mind in neutral, 0:05:29.520 --> 0:05:32.719 then just by default, the negative thoughts will start to come. 0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:35.880 Have you ever been laying in bed in the morning 0:05:36.240 --> 0:05:39.640 and out of nowhere, you're reminded of all the mistakes 0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:42.640 you made yesterday and all the problems you have in 0:05:42.680 --> 0:05:46.080 your future. That's the enemy trying to set your mind 0:05:46.320 --> 0:05:48.760 for a negative, defeated, lousy day. 0:05:49.080 --> 0:05:50.320 Don't fall into that trap. 0:05:51.040 --> 0:05:54.760 The scripture says, set your mind and keep it set 0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:56.680 on the higher things. 0:05:57.200 --> 0:05:59.479 You've got to be proactive. 0:05:59.240 --> 0:06:02.200 Be on the off when you get up in the morning, 0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:05.599 say it with David, this is another day the Lord 0:06:05.640 --> 0:06:09.200 has made. No matter how I feel, no matter what 0:06:09.240 --> 0:06:12.919 the economy looks like, no matter what the medical report says, 0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:16.720 I am choosing to rejoice. I'm gonna choose to live 0:06:16.760 --> 0:06:20.240 this day happy. You know what you're really saying. I'm 0:06:20.240 --> 0:06:23.560 not gonna let other people still my joy today. I'm 0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:27.599 not gonna let disappointments and set backs discourage me. I'm 0:06:27.600 --> 0:06:31.039 not gonna focus on my problems and my mistakes. I 0:06:31.200 --> 0:06:32.680 make it up my mind to. 0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:33.640 Enjoy this day. 0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:37.839 Something I've learned to do every morning is I say, Father, 0:06:38.000 --> 0:06:41.359 thank you that today is going to be a blessing 0:06:41.440 --> 0:06:45.000 day and a receiving day, a day where I'll be 0:06:45.080 --> 0:06:48.560 a blessing to someone and a day where I'll receive 0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:50.400 your goodness in a greater way. 0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:53.640 What am I doing. I'm setting the tone for the 0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:54.120 new day. 0:06:54.880 --> 0:06:58.000 I go out each morning looking for somebody I can 0:06:58.040 --> 0:07:00.880 bless I'm on the lookout for somebody I can be 0:07:00.960 --> 0:07:04.480 good to, somebody I can encourage, somebody. 0:07:04.000 --> 0:07:04.840 I can uplift. 0:07:05.520 --> 0:07:08.640 I'm expecting it number one to be a blessing day, 0:07:09.160 --> 0:07:12.680 and number two, I'm expecting it to be a receiving day. 0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:16.440 That means a day where I'm going to receive God's 0:07:16.480 --> 0:07:20.080 goodness in a greater way. I'm expecting God to show 0:07:20.160 --> 0:07:23.920 up and show out in my life today. I'm expecting 0:07:23.960 --> 0:07:27.400 to get supernatural breakthroughs. It's not going to just be 0:07:27.480 --> 0:07:31.120 a blessing day where I reach out to others. But 0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:34.280 I know when I help somebody else, God will always 0:07:34.360 --> 0:07:37.840 help me. When I make someone else's day, God will 0:07:37.880 --> 0:07:38.800 make my own day. 0:07:39.080 --> 0:07:40.560 So I'm getting in position. 0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:44.760 I'm getting my mind prepared to receive God's goodness in 0:07:44.800 --> 0:07:48.400 a greater way. I heard a story about this ninety 0:07:48.400 --> 0:07:49.360 two year old man. 0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:51.720 He was just as sharp as could be. 0:07:52.320 --> 0:07:55.679 Every morning, by eight o'clock, he was up and fully dressed. 0:07:56.040 --> 0:08:00.760 He always looked impeccables, hair perfectly comb facing me, deetly shaven, 0:08:01.280 --> 0:08:05.440 and although he could see images somewhat, he was legally blind. 0:08:06.080 --> 0:08:08.960 His wife of nearly seventy years had just gone to 0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:11.760 be with the Lord. Now he was moving into a 0:08:11.800 --> 0:08:15.440 senior's home, and after waiting in the lobby patiently for 0:08:15.480 --> 0:08:18.600 several hours, a young lady came to show him to 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:21.880 his new room, and as he maneuvered his walker through 0:08:21.920 --> 0:08:25.480 the hallways, she began to describe this new room in 0:08:25.520 --> 0:08:29.320 great detail. She told how it had a beautiful window 0:08:29.480 --> 0:08:32.840 and a nice couch and a desk area right in 0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:33.360 the middle. 0:08:33.720 --> 0:08:37.080 He interrupted her and said, I love it. I love it, 0:08:37.240 --> 0:08:37.920 I love it. 0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:40.600 She kind of laughed and said, sir, we're not there yet. 0:08:40.960 --> 0:08:43.240 You haven't seen it. Hold on just a minute, I'll 0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:46.280 show it to you. He said, no, that doesn't have 0:08:46.360 --> 0:08:49.920 anything to do with it. Happiness is something you decide 0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:53.320 ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not 0:08:53.840 --> 0:08:57.360 doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged. It depends 0:08:57.400 --> 0:09:02.040 on how my mind is arranged. Like that attitude, that's 0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:05.880 the way we need to be. We've already made up 0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:09.280 our mind to enjoy this day. We've already made up 0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:13.760 our mind to have a blessed, prosperous, supernatural year. We 0:09:13.800 --> 0:09:17.520 may have some setbacks that may change our circumstances, but 0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:21.040 it's not gonna change our mind. The economy may affect 0:09:21.080 --> 0:09:23.720 my business, but it's not gonna affect my mind. 0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:25.720 I know God is still gonna prosper me. 0:09:26.480 --> 0:09:29.080 This illness may change how I feel, but it's not 0:09:29.120 --> 0:09:32.160 gonna change my mind. I've already decided I'm gonna live 0:09:32.160 --> 0:09:32.920 this day happy. 0:09:33.960 --> 0:09:34.360 Friends. 0:09:34.440 --> 0:09:37.120 It's not what happens to us or what we do 0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:40.360 or don't have, it's how our mind is arranged. 0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:41.000 Now. 0:09:41.040 --> 0:09:41.800 I'm asking you. 0:09:41.760 --> 0:09:45.160 Today to make up your mind that you're gonna stay 0:09:45.160 --> 0:09:47.839 full of joy, that you're gonna get up every day 0:09:47.960 --> 0:09:51.480 and prepare for victory. I walked out of the house 0:09:51.760 --> 0:09:54.800 early the other morning, and I heard all these birds 0:09:54.840 --> 0:09:59.920 singing and singing so loud and so cheerful, little birds 0:10:00.160 --> 0:10:03.760 chirping and chirping, big birds making all this melody. 0:10:03.920 --> 0:10:06.280 It's like they were having a big party. 0:10:06.320 --> 0:10:08.640 And I wanted to say to them, Hey, birds, have 0:10:08.760 --> 0:10:12.360 you read the newspapers lately? Did you see the stock 0:10:12.480 --> 0:10:16.760 market last year? You're not supposed to be singing, happy, 0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:17.520 enjoying life. 0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:18.760 What's wrong with you? 0:10:18.280 --> 0:10:21.480 Your acting like everything is going to be all right? 0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:25.240 What was it with those birds? They know a secret. 0:10:25.760 --> 0:10:29.480 They know their heavenly father is in control. They know 0:10:29.600 --> 0:10:32.280 God has promised to take care of them, so they 0:10:32.320 --> 0:10:37.200 go through the day singing, enjoying life regardless of the circumstances. 0:10:37.960 --> 0:10:40.960 That's how we need to start off each day. Get 0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:43.480 up in the morning and have a song of praise 0:10:43.640 --> 0:10:46.760 in your heart, put a smile on your face, go 0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:50.640 out during the day, be determined to enjoy it. That's 0:10:50.679 --> 0:10:54.640 what it says in First Thessalonians five sixteen. Be happy 0:10:54.800 --> 0:11:01.560 in your faith, glad hearted continually and all way. Notice 0:11:01.640 --> 0:11:05.040 how long we're supposed to be glad hearted? How long 0:11:05.080 --> 0:11:05.960 are we supposed to have. 0:11:06.000 --> 0:11:08.920 A smile on our face. As long as. 0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:11.960 People treat us right, as long as we feel okay, 0:11:12.280 --> 0:11:15.360 as long as the economy is up. No, it says, 0:11:15.920 --> 0:11:21.680 be glad hearted continually and all ways. That means in 0:11:21.760 --> 0:11:25.240 the good times and in the tough times. When it's 0:11:25.280 --> 0:11:29.480 sunny and when it's raining, when those dark clouds are 0:11:29.520 --> 0:11:33.560 over your head you feel like life is kind of depressing, 0:11:34.160 --> 0:11:39.119 kind of gloomy. Always remember right above those dark clouds, 0:11:39.400 --> 0:11:42.640 the sun is shining. You may not be able to 0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:45.679 see the sun in your life right now, but that 0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:47.280 doesn't mean it's not up there. 0:11:47.840 --> 0:11:50.480 It's just being blocked by the dark clouds. 0:11:50.920 --> 0:11:55.000 The good news is the clouds are temporary. The clouds 0:11:55.000 --> 0:11:57.800 are not going to last forever. The sun is going 0:11:57.840 --> 0:12:01.120 to shine in your life once again. In the meantime, 0:12:01.440 --> 0:12:06.680 keep your joy, be glad hearted continually, don't let a 0:12:06.720 --> 0:12:11.120 few clouds sour your life. The rain falls on the 0:12:11.280 --> 0:12:15.960 just and the unjust. That means we all face disappointments, 0:12:16.360 --> 0:12:22.120 unfair situations, test, trials, temptation. But know this right past 0:12:22.200 --> 0:12:26.240 the test is promotion. On the other side of every 0:12:26.280 --> 0:12:30.199 difficulty is increase. And if you'll go through the adversity 0:12:30.480 --> 0:12:33.120 with a smile on your face a song in your heart, 0:12:33.520 --> 0:12:36.960 then on the other side there'll be a reward. But 0:12:37.080 --> 0:12:39.800 so often in the tough times we get kind of discouraged, 0:12:40.160 --> 0:12:43.319 which all, I'm down today because business is slow, I'm 0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:46.000 upset because I got a bad medical report, or I'm 0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:50.760 worried about this legal situation. Human nature tends to get 0:12:50.800 --> 0:12:54.880 negative in the difficult times. But the scripture tells us 0:12:54.880 --> 0:12:57.840 to do just the opposite. It says in James one 0:12:57.920 --> 0:13:02.360 verse two, count it all joy when you fall into trials. 0:13:03.000 --> 0:13:04.480 That doesn't seem to make sense. 0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:07.920 You mean, we're supposed to be joyful and glad hearted 0:13:08.400 --> 0:13:09.920 in the middle of tough times. 0:13:10.600 --> 0:13:11.360 Yes, that's right. 0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:15.600 It's because when you lose your joy, you lose your strength. 0:13:16.200 --> 0:13:19.080 And in the difficult times, more than ever, that's when 0:13:19.080 --> 0:13:22.080 you need your strength. When you have a child that's 0:13:22.080 --> 0:13:24.600 hard to raise, that takes a lot of energy, you 0:13:24.720 --> 0:13:27.480 need your strength, and your strength. 0:13:27.400 --> 0:13:28.720 Is connected to your joy. 0:13:29.480 --> 0:13:33.560 When you're facing a financial crisis, dealing with an illness, 0:13:33.600 --> 0:13:37.079 going through a breakup in a relationship, these things are 0:13:37.200 --> 0:13:41.240 very draining. If you go through it negative, bitter, discouraged, 0:13:41.559 --> 0:13:43.880 you're not going to have the strength you need to 0:13:44.000 --> 0:13:46.440 stand strong and fight the good fight of faith. 0:13:47.040 --> 0:13:48.400 And the way you can keep your. 0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:51.520 Joy is to know that on the other side of 0:13:51.559 --> 0:13:55.440 that test is promotion. On the other side of every 0:13:55.520 --> 0:13:59.920 setback is new opportunity. The other side of every offense 0:14:00.280 --> 0:14:03.920 is new growth. If you'll just keep reminding yourself even 0:14:03.960 --> 0:14:06.800 though this is hard, even though I don't understand it, 0:14:06.880 --> 0:14:09.280 even though it's not fair, I'm going to keep a 0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:12.880 good attitude and stay full of joy, knowing that this 0:14:13.080 --> 0:14:16.480 is not setting me back, It is setting me up 0:14:16.679 --> 0:14:20.920 for God to bring me out better. The whole key 0:14:22.120 --> 0:14:26.120 is how you handle the adversity. If you complain, you 0:14:26.160 --> 0:14:29.760 will remain You'll stay right there. If you get negative 0:14:29.800 --> 0:14:33.360 and soured on life, you won't pass the test. There 0:14:33.440 --> 0:14:38.000 was promotion available, there was opportunity for new growth, but 0:14:38.080 --> 0:14:40.960 because you didn't count it all joy, you missed out. 0:14:41.640 --> 0:14:44.800 The good news is God will give you another opportunity. 0:14:45.240 --> 0:14:47.200 He can still get you to where you need to be. 0:14:48.200 --> 0:14:51.680 For instance, when somebody offends us, our attitude should be 0:14:52.000 --> 0:14:53.840 I'm not going to get upset. 0:14:54.200 --> 0:14:55.720 I'm going to count it all joy. 0:14:56.160 --> 0:14:58.600 I know this is simply a test, and on the 0:14:58.680 --> 0:15:01.760 other side of this affe, I'm gonna be promoted. 0:15:02.560 --> 0:15:06.320 When business is slow. Instead of complaining, you count it 0:15:06.440 --> 0:15:09.360 all joy. This too shall pass. I know God is 0:15:09.400 --> 0:15:10.760 supplying all of my needs. 0:15:11.440 --> 0:15:14.920 Or when you face a disappointment, your emotions will tell 0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:16.960 you to get down and discouraged. 0:15:17.280 --> 0:15:19.640 You'll feel self pity trying to set in. 0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:23.800 But instead of getting on board with your emotions, you 0:15:23.880 --> 0:15:27.680 start talking to yourself. Self, Get up, self, be strong, 0:15:27.880 --> 0:15:29.240 there are good days up ahead. 0:15:29.880 --> 0:15:32.760 That's how you pass the test. That's how you count 0:15:32.760 --> 0:15:34.040 it all joy. 0:15:34.120 --> 0:15:36.760 And in the tough times, don't be surprised if you 0:15:36.840 --> 0:15:39.280 feel that spirit of heaviness. 0:15:39.760 --> 0:15:40.640 Try to overtake. 0:15:40.720 --> 0:15:40.800 You. 0:15:41.440 --> 0:15:44.080 Don't be surprised if you hear those thoughts telling you 0:15:44.560 --> 0:15:47.600 it's never gonna work out, you're never gonna get well. 0:15:47.680 --> 0:15:49.000 It's over, it's done. 0:15:49.600 --> 0:15:52.320 Don't believe those lies. You don't have to get on 0:15:52.360 --> 0:15:55.400 board with your emotions. They're not in charge. 0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:56.560 You're in charge. 0:15:56.960 --> 0:15:59.840 And instead of letting yourself talk to you, you need 0:15:59.880 --> 0:16:03.440 to start talking to yourself. In other words, when you 0:16:03.520 --> 0:16:05.880 wake up in the morning and that thought comes to 0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:07.680 your mind saying it's gonna be a. 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:10.840 Lousy day, don't just agree and say, yeah, it's gonna 0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:11.640 be a lousy day. 0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:15.720 Well, you got so many problems you'll probably never get well. Yeah, 0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:18.360 I don't think I'll ever get well. No, turn it 0:16:18.400 --> 0:16:21.880 around and talk to yourself. Make a declaration of faith. 0:16:22.280 --> 0:16:23.360 I will get well. 0:16:23.600 --> 0:16:26.800 God is restoring health unto me early in the morning, 0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:30.600 when that thought comes saying you're depressed, it's bad, you 0:16:30.640 --> 0:16:34.200 don't have anything to look forward to. No, talk to yourself. 0:16:34.520 --> 0:16:37.360 This is gonna be a great day. God has favor 0:16:37.440 --> 0:16:39.760 in my future. I can't wait to see what he's 0:16:39.800 --> 0:16:42.400 going to do. What are you doing counting it all? 0:16:42.600 --> 0:16:45.360 Joy? This is what David did. 0:16:45.800 --> 0:16:49.560 That spirit of heaviness tried to steal his destiny. He 0:16:49.600 --> 0:16:52.720 got depressed, very discouraged during dark times. 0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:55.440 You know what he did. He started talking to himself. 0:16:56.080 --> 0:16:59.520 He said, why are you cast down? Oh my soul, 0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:03.160 Put your hope in the Lord. He was saying, David, 0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:06.359 what's wrong with you? Why are you discouraged? Why have 0:17:06.400 --> 0:17:09.000 you lost your joy? God is still on the throne. 0:17:09.359 --> 0:17:11.200 God still has good things in store. 0:17:11.600 --> 0:17:13.040 Put your hope back in the Lord. 0:17:14.080 --> 0:17:16.440 When that heaviness tries to come on us, we need 0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:18.560 to do the same thing. You got to look in 0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:21.600 the mirror and say, listen here self, cheer up, put 0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:24.359 on a new attitude. We're not staying down, We're not 0:17:24.400 --> 0:17:26.919 staying defeated. We're putting our hope in the Lord. 0:17:27.920 --> 0:17:30.360 Today especially, there's. 0:17:30.160 --> 0:17:33.720 So much doom and gloom in our society, so many 0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:37.080 negative news reports. If we're not careful, we'll let it 0:17:37.160 --> 0:17:40.880 sink in and we'll let that spirit of heavenness kind 0:17:40.920 --> 0:17:44.760 of come on us, and you know, no enthusiasm, no joy. 0:17:44.880 --> 0:17:48.359 Oh, it's just so bad. The scripture tells us what 0:17:48.480 --> 0:17:48.800 to do. 0:17:49.400 --> 0:17:53.320 Put on the garment of praise for the spirit of heavenness. 0:17:54.000 --> 0:17:57.840 When you feel that heavenness trying to overtake you and 0:17:57.920 --> 0:18:01.000 tell you that there's nothing good in your You've seen 0:18:01.080 --> 0:18:04.439 your best days, you feel the blaws. First thing you 0:18:04.480 --> 0:18:08.080 need to do is take off the old coat of heaviness, 0:18:08.640 --> 0:18:11.919 throw away the coat of self pity, get rid of 0:18:11.960 --> 0:18:15.680 the coat of discouragement, and put on a new coat 0:18:15.800 --> 0:18:16.480 of praise. 0:18:17.200 --> 0:18:18.679 That means begin. 0:18:18.520 --> 0:18:21.440 To thank God for what he's already done in your life. 0:18:22.000 --> 0:18:24.920 Thank him for the victories in your past, thank him 0:18:24.920 --> 0:18:28.600 for how far he's already brought you, and then take 0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:32.359 it one step further. Thank him in advance for the 0:18:32.440 --> 0:18:35.239 victories he has ahead of you. Thank him for the 0:18:35.320 --> 0:18:38.480 new doors he's opening, Thank him for the situations he's 0:18:38.520 --> 0:18:42.000 turning around. Thank him for the favor that he has 0:18:42.119 --> 0:18:46.040 in your future. You do that, and you will feel 0:18:46.080 --> 0:18:49.400 a new joy rising up on the inside. You will 0:18:49.440 --> 0:18:53.440 feel your faith begin to be increased. You won't have 0:18:53.520 --> 0:18:58.400 that victim mentality. You will have a victor mentality. One 0:18:58.440 --> 0:19:01.879 thing I've learned is you can cannot praise and stay 0:19:01.880 --> 0:19:05.719 defeated at the same time. You cannot give God thanks 0:19:05.800 --> 0:19:08.679 and stay down and discouraged. When you put on the 0:19:08.800 --> 0:19:12.080 garment of praise, that spirit of heaviness has to go. 0:19:13.280 --> 0:19:15.639 Sometimes you're not gonna feel like doing it. 0:19:16.200 --> 0:19:18.359 You don't feel like having a good attitude, you don't 0:19:18.400 --> 0:19:22.399 feel like being grateful. That's why God said to offer 0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:27.400 up the sacrifice of praise. God knew it wasn't always 0:19:27.440 --> 0:19:30.520 going to be easy. Sometimes you're gonna have to dig 0:19:30.520 --> 0:19:33.439 your heels in and say, God, I don't feel like 0:19:33.560 --> 0:19:36.400 doing this. Doesn't look like it's ever gonna work out. 0:19:36.960 --> 0:19:41.920 I'm tired, lonely, discouraged. But God, I know you're still 0:19:41.920 --> 0:19:44.960 on the throne. I know you are good, and you're 0:19:44.960 --> 0:19:48.240 good all the time, So I choose to give you praise. 0:19:48.680 --> 0:19:53.200 I choose to give you thanks. Anyway, when you offer 0:19:53.280 --> 0:19:57.640 up that sacrifice of praise, that's when supernatural things begin 0:19:57.720 --> 0:20:01.800 to happen. This is what Paul and Silas did. They 0:20:01.800 --> 0:20:06.159 were in jail at midnight. They had been unjustly beaten 0:20:06.560 --> 0:20:11.040 earlier in the day. What were they doing complaining having 0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:11.919 a pity party? 0:20:12.400 --> 0:20:14.679 God is not fair? Where were you today? 0:20:15.160 --> 0:20:19.359 No, they were singing praises and giving thanks to God. 0:20:19.880 --> 0:20:23.040 They were saying, in effect, God, we know you're bigger 0:20:23.080 --> 0:20:24.000 than our problems. 0:20:24.119 --> 0:20:27.479 We know you're still in control. You're well able to 0:20:27.480 --> 0:20:28.360 get us out of here. 0:20:29.280 --> 0:20:33.359 Sure enough, at midnight there was a great earthquake. The 0:20:33.400 --> 0:20:36.760 prison doors flung open, the chains fell off their feet. 0:20:37.000 --> 0:20:39.920 They walked out of there as free men. What started 0:20:39.960 --> 0:20:44.960 it when they offered up the sacrifice of praise? Really, 0:20:45.480 --> 0:20:48.320 any of us can have a good attitude when everything's 0:20:48.359 --> 0:20:53.080 going our way. We can all celebrate, be grateful when 0:20:53.119 --> 0:20:56.520 we're on the mountaintop. But where are the people that 0:20:56.560 --> 0:20:59.320 will give God praise even when the bottom falls out? 0:21:00.040 --> 0:21:02.320 Where are the people that will get up each morning 0:21:03.040 --> 0:21:07.560 and prepare for victory and increase in spite of all 0:21:07.720 --> 0:21:08.560 the news. 0:21:08.320 --> 0:21:10.600 Reports predicting doom and gloom. 0:21:11.359 --> 0:21:14.240 Where are the people that will say, God, I still 0:21:14.280 --> 0:21:17.840 praise you even though the medical report wasn't good. God, 0:21:17.920 --> 0:21:20.360 I still thank you even though it didn't turn out 0:21:20.400 --> 0:21:24.119 my way. I believe I'm looking at those people right now. 0:21:24.520 --> 0:21:29.520 You are men and women of great faith. Your roots 0:21:30.080 --> 0:21:35.000 go down deep. Many of you could be complaining, you 0:21:35.040 --> 0:21:38.040 could be discouraged, You could have a chip on your shoulder, 0:21:38.400 --> 0:21:41.560 but instead you just keep giving God praise. You got 0:21:41.600 --> 0:21:44.400 that smile on your face. You're doing the right thing 0:21:44.480 --> 0:21:47.680 even though the wrong thing's happening. That's why I can 0:21:47.680 --> 0:21:51.359 tell you with confidence that you are coming in to 0:21:51.560 --> 0:21:56.680 greater victories. You need to enlarge your vision. You need 0:21:56.720 --> 0:21:59.639 to take the limits off of God. You have not 0:21:59.760 --> 0:22:04.000 seen your best days. God has victories in your future 0:22:04.280 --> 0:22:07.160 that are gonna amaze you. He is gonna show up 0:22:07.240 --> 0:22:10.720 and show out in unusual ways. You may be in 0:22:10.760 --> 0:22:14.000 a tough time right now, but remember this. The enemy 0:22:14.119 --> 0:22:17.600 always fights you the hardest when he knows God has 0:22:17.640 --> 0:22:21.879 something great in store for you. You are closest to 0:22:22.000 --> 0:22:25.439 your victory when it is the darkest. That is the 0:22:25.600 --> 0:22:30.399 enemy's final stand. Don't get discouraged, don't start complaining. Just 0:22:30.480 --> 0:22:34.480 keep offering up that sacrifice of praise. It says in 0:22:34.560 --> 0:22:38.960 Jeremiah thirty three, verse eleven. When you have the voice 0:22:39.240 --> 0:22:43.119 of gladness, the voice of joy, and you offer up 0:22:43.200 --> 0:22:47.879 the sacrifice of praise, God will cause the captivity of 0:22:47.920 --> 0:22:52.280 the land to be reversed and the fortunes to be restored. 0:22:52.880 --> 0:22:57.720 Two words I love their reversed and restored. God is saying, 0:22:57.760 --> 0:23:00.879 when you stay full of joy, learn to offer up 0:23:00.920 --> 0:23:02.400 the sacrifice of praise. 0:23:02.720 --> 0:23:05.080 God is going to turn things in your favor. 0:23:05.400 --> 0:23:08.720 He is going to reverse negative situations He's going to 0:23:08.800 --> 0:23:14.359 restore what's been stolen. But notice it doesn't happen by complaining, 0:23:14.760 --> 0:23:18.240 by being negative, by being sour. It happens when you 0:23:18.359 --> 0:23:22.320 have the voice of gladness, the voice of joy. That 0:23:22.480 --> 0:23:25.119 means you get up in the morning with the song 0:23:25.280 --> 0:23:27.560 in your heart. You go out each day with a 0:23:27.640 --> 0:23:31.600 smile on your face. Things may not always go your way, 0:23:32.080 --> 0:23:34.760 but you don't get discouraged. You shake it off and 0:23:34.840 --> 0:23:38.000 count it all joy. Listen, when you live that way, 0:23:38.240 --> 0:23:40.399 you might as well get ready. God is going to 0:23:40.480 --> 0:23:45.240 reverse and restore. He is going to reverse finances that 0:23:45.280 --> 0:23:49.359 are going down. He's gonna reverse a business this struggling. 0:23:49.680 --> 0:23:53.560 He's going to reverse a legal situation. He's gonna reverse. 0:23:53.240 --> 0:23:54.400 A health issue. 0:23:54.640 --> 0:23:57.639 Not only that, God is gonna restore what should have 0:23:57.680 --> 0:24:01.480 been yours. He's gonna restore the years you're lost because 0:24:01.520 --> 0:24:05.119 somebody did you wrong. He's going to restore a relationship 0:24:05.160 --> 0:24:08.360 that's on the rocks. It's gonna happen because you've got 0:24:08.359 --> 0:24:11.359 the voice of joy, the voice of gladness, and you 0:24:11.440 --> 0:24:14.920 keep offering up that sacrifice of praise, and all through 0:24:14.920 --> 0:24:18.280 the scripture it tells us to rejoice in the Lord 0:24:18.640 --> 0:24:23.240 always It's interesting. The word rejoice doesn't just mean to 0:24:23.320 --> 0:24:26.800 be vocal, to give God praise with our words, but 0:24:26.920 --> 0:24:31.600 rejoice also means to brighten up, to spin around and 0:24:31.640 --> 0:24:35.680 delete for joy. Do you realize you can rejoice by 0:24:35.720 --> 0:24:40.040 simply putting a smile on your face When times are tough, 0:24:40.400 --> 0:24:43.359 things aren't going our way. Many people have a long 0:24:43.600 --> 0:24:47.639 sour face. They're down, discourage, worried, upset. But when you 0:24:47.720 --> 0:24:52.160 count it all joy, you smile and have a pleasant demeanor. 0:24:52.680 --> 0:24:56.199 Not because you necessarily feel like it, not because all 0:24:56.280 --> 0:25:01.680 your circumstances are perfect. You smile by faith. You smile 0:25:01.840 --> 0:25:06.080 knowing that your countenance, your expression is saying to God, 0:25:06.600 --> 0:25:09.680 I trust you God. I don't feel like doing this, 0:25:09.840 --> 0:25:13.800 but I choose to rejoice. In other words, when you 0:25:13.920 --> 0:25:17.600 smile in the difficult times, you are offering up that 0:25:17.880 --> 0:25:22.120 sacrifice of praise. Sometimes the best thing we can do 0:25:22.440 --> 0:25:25.040 when we're having a tough day is to just put 0:25:25.080 --> 0:25:28.240 a smile on our face. A lot of people, when 0:25:28.240 --> 0:25:32.239 it gets difficult, they've got that long, gloomy face. They 0:25:32.280 --> 0:25:34.879 look like they've lost their last friend. They'll come up 0:25:34.920 --> 0:25:38.080 to me, joel, I'm just rejoicing in the Lord. No 0:25:38.440 --> 0:25:40.199 You need to notify your face. 0:25:41.400 --> 0:25:42.159 You need to get. 0:25:42.040 --> 0:25:45.720 Your face lined up with what you know in your heart, 0:25:46.200 --> 0:25:49.119 like that little bird I heard singing deep down. 0:25:49.680 --> 0:25:51.760 You know everything's going to be all right. 0:25:52.240 --> 0:25:55.359 You know God is fighting your battles for you. You 0:25:55.480 --> 0:25:58.520 know nothing can snatch you out of his hand. You 0:25:58.640 --> 0:26:01.560 know God holds victory in store for you. 0:26:01.560 --> 0:26:04.160 You know no weapon formed against you is gonna prosper. 0:26:05.320 --> 0:26:08.840 You know what was meant for your harm, God's gonna 0:26:08.920 --> 0:26:12.080 use to your advantage. It's on the inside now you 0:26:12.119 --> 0:26:14.959 need to let it get to the outside. You need 0:26:15.000 --> 0:26:18.600 to rejoice not only with your words, but rejoice with 0:26:18.720 --> 0:26:25.280 your expression. Rejoice with your countenance, Rejoice by smiling, friends. 0:26:25.359 --> 0:26:28.560 Our joy was never meant to be hidden. It was 0:26:28.680 --> 0:26:32.520 meant to be displayed. You are the light of the world. 0:26:33.040 --> 0:26:36.719 Don't hide your light wherever you go, let your joy 0:26:36.840 --> 0:26:40.320 be seen. You said, Joel, I don't have any reason 0:26:40.359 --> 0:26:42.639 to smile today. We've got a lot of problems. We've 0:26:42.640 --> 0:26:45.000 got a lot of things coming against me. But really, 0:26:45.240 --> 0:26:47.800 you need to smile more than anybody else. You need 0:26:47.840 --> 0:26:52.439 to release your faith when somebody offends you, somebody is 0:26:52.560 --> 0:26:54.879 rude and you feel like giving them a piece of 0:26:54.920 --> 0:26:55.439 your mind. 0:26:55.840 --> 0:26:59.000 But instead you just smile. You know what you just did. 0:26:59.320 --> 0:27:02.880 You counted it all. Join on the freeway, somebody cuts 0:27:02.920 --> 0:27:05.360 you off. You're just about to blow and tell them 0:27:05.359 --> 0:27:07.920 what you think, but instead you look over and smile. 0:27:09.600 --> 0:27:10.360 You know what you did. 0:27:10.480 --> 0:27:15.480 You offered up the sacrifice of praise. Sometimes it takes 0:27:15.560 --> 0:27:19.639 everything we've got. Your child comes and says, Mom, I 0:27:19.720 --> 0:27:22.880 just filled red kool aid on the white carpet. 0:27:23.800 --> 0:27:29.120 Smile the sacrifice of praise. How about this? That coworker 0:27:29.600 --> 0:27:30.720 that normally won't. 0:27:30.520 --> 0:27:33.840 Give you the time of days, always talking behind your back, 0:27:33.920 --> 0:27:36.639 trying to make you look bad, he comes over and says, 0:27:36.920 --> 0:27:40.520 would you help me with this project? Instead of saying 0:27:40.520 --> 0:27:44.439 have you totally lost your mind? You just smile and 0:27:44.480 --> 0:27:47.920 say I'll be glad to under your breath you can say, God, 0:27:48.000 --> 0:27:51.280 this is the biggest sacrifice of praise I've ever given you. 0:27:52.960 --> 0:27:55.240 Victoria and I were at the airport the other day 0:27:55.320 --> 0:27:58.160 and we came to the security checkpoint and we put 0:27:58.200 --> 0:28:01.000 our two bags through the X ray machines and the 0:28:01.040 --> 0:28:04.160 security officer sent them back and said there were liquids 0:28:04.200 --> 0:28:06.760 that we could not take. And Victoria said, oh yeah, Joel, 0:28:06.760 --> 0:28:07.600 I forgot to get. 0:28:07.480 --> 0:28:08.520 My water out. 0:28:08.720 --> 0:28:11.640 I didn't realize it. He wasn't talking to her. He 0:28:11.720 --> 0:28:13.960 was talking to me, and so I just stood there 0:28:13.960 --> 0:28:16.879 and I didn't open my bag. You would have thought 0:28:17.040 --> 0:28:20.680 I had just committed a major crime. That like totally 0:28:20.720 --> 0:28:24.040 insulted him. He said, sir, what is wrong with you? 0:28:24.440 --> 0:28:27.159 Can you not hear what I'm saying? I said, open 0:28:27.240 --> 0:28:31.119 your bag, and I mean open it now. And I 0:28:31.200 --> 0:28:35.959 have to admit I didn't feel like brightening up. I 0:28:35.960 --> 0:28:38.520 didn't feel like rejoicing. I didn't want to hear anything 0:28:38.520 --> 0:28:39.560 about counted. 0:28:39.240 --> 0:28:40.560 It all joy. 0:28:41.280 --> 0:28:44.080 I just kept reminding myself, Joy, you are a pastor. 0:28:44.240 --> 0:28:49.760 Be calm, stay polite, remember your messages. I dug down 0:28:49.840 --> 0:28:53.040 deep and I mustard up a smile. I got to 0:28:53.040 --> 0:28:56.080 tell you, it was the most fake smile I've ever smiled. 0:28:58.120 --> 0:29:00.720 I was so proud of myself. I walked off and said, God, 0:29:00.800 --> 0:29:06.040 I'm expecting a huge reward. Friends. 0:29:06.200 --> 0:29:09.920 Learn to count it all joy. Don't be determined to 0:29:09.960 --> 0:29:13.240 never have problems. Be determined to stay full of joy 0:29:13.400 --> 0:29:14.120 in the midst. 0:29:13.920 --> 0:29:14.760 Of your problems. 0:29:15.240 --> 0:29:19.240 Get up each morning and prepare for victory. Arrange your 0:29:19.320 --> 0:29:22.640 mind in the right direction. Make that declaration. This is 0:29:22.680 --> 0:29:26.000 gonna be a blessing day and a receiving day.

And if 0:29:32.160 --> 0:29:35.520 you will keep the voice of gladness, the voice of joy, 0:29:35.880 --> 0:29:39.080 you cannot stay down and defeated. God has promised He's 0:29:39.080 --> 0:29:43.360 gonna reverse and restore.
