I'd like 0:01:44.680 --> 0:01:47.039 to start with something funny each week. And I heard 0:01:47.080 --> 0:01:49.800 about this pastor that was in the lobby after the 0:01:49.920 --> 0:01:53.160 service greeting people. He saw man that he hadn't seen 0:01:53.240 --> 0:01:55.720 in a long long time and pulled him over to 0:01:55.800 --> 0:01:58.120 the side and said, sir, you need to join the 0:01:58.400 --> 0:02:01.040 army of the Lord. Said, what do you mean, I'm 0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:03.680 in the Army of the Lord. Pastor said, well, how 0:02:03.720 --> 0:02:06.760 come I only see you on Christmas and Easter. The 0:02:06.880 --> 0:02:08.800 man whispered back, because I'm in. 0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:13.120 The secret Service. All right, hold up your Bible and 0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:15.960 say it like you mean it. This is my Bible. 0:02:16.320 --> 0:02:18.679 I am what it says I am. I have what 0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:21.280 it says I have. I can do what it says 0:02:21.360 --> 0:02:24.080 I can do. Today I will be taught the word 0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:28.480 of God. I boldly confess my mind is alert, my 0:02:28.639 --> 0:02:32.960 heart is receptive. I will never be the same. In Jesus' name, 0:02:33.400 --> 0:02:36.519 God bless you. I want to talk to you today 0:02:36.880 --> 0:02:38.799 about explosive blessings. 0:02:39.520 --> 0:02:40.280 It's easy to. 0:02:40.320 --> 0:02:42.639 Get stuck in a rut and think this is where 0:02:42.680 --> 0:02:45.480 I'm always going to be. I'll never get out of debt. 0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:48.560 I'll never be able to send my children to college. 0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:50.880 It's going to take me thirty years to pay my 0:02:51.000 --> 0:02:54.799 house off. That may be true in the natural, but 0:02:54.960 --> 0:02:59.200 we serve a supernatural God. Now I've learned he has 0:02:59.480 --> 0:03:05.320 explodeusive blessings. That is increase that you weren't expecting all 0:03:05.400 --> 0:03:09.560 the sudden. A debt is canceled, a new project takes off, 0:03:10.000 --> 0:03:14.840 you receive an inheritance, your property doubles in value. Those 0:03:15.000 --> 0:03:20.320 are explosive blessings, blessings that thrust you to a new level. Now. 0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:22.160 I want you to get this down in your spirit. 0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:27.120 God wants to bless you beyond your salary. He wants 0:03:27.160 --> 0:03:31.079 to bless you beyond your normal income. God is going 0:03:31.160 --> 0:03:36.800 to increase you in unusual ways. That's what explosive blessings do. 0:03:37.520 --> 0:03:41.280 They blast away what should have been permanent. I was 0:03:41.360 --> 0:03:44.000 driving through the mountains not long ago, and on one 0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:46.520 side there was this big wall of rock where they 0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:49.280 had cut the road in. They had used dynamite to 0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:52.920 blast away that rock. Otherwise it would have been permanent. 0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:57.000 We all have things in life that look permanent. It 0:03:57.120 --> 0:03:59.320 may look like we could never get out of debt 0:04:00.240 --> 0:04:02.920 accomplish our dreams. It looks like we'll stay at the 0:04:03.000 --> 0:04:06.400 same level the rest of our life. But just like 0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:11.840 the rock and the dynamite, God has explosive blessings that 0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:16.760 will remove things that appear to be permanent. One touch 0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:20.440 of God's favor can blast you out of debt. One 0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:23.520 good break can blast you to a new level. One 0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:27.599 supernatural opportunity can take you from the land of barely 0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:29.760 enough to the land of more than enough. 0:04:30.839 --> 0:04:31.760 I know this couple. 0:04:32.279 --> 0:04:35.080 They have a daughter that had a heart defect, and 0:04:35.200 --> 0:04:39.040 had to have several extensive surgeries. The hospital bill was 0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:43.120 four hundred thousand dollars, wasn't covered by their insurance. He's 0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:46.640 a police officer, she works at a school. It looked 0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:48.920 like they would be paying on that debt the rest 0:04:48.960 --> 0:04:53.600 of their life. But one day, out of the blue, unexpectedly, 0:04:53.960 --> 0:04:57.719 the hospital called and informed them that they were canceling 0:04:57.800 --> 0:05:01.680 the debt four hundred thousand dollars. Not only that, they said, 0:05:01.760 --> 0:05:04.640 we're going to refund the two years worth of payments 0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:09.760 that you've already made. That's an explosive blessing, blasting away 0:05:10.120 --> 0:05:13.200 what should have been permanent. I have a friend that 0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:17.200 wanted to attend a major university, but he needed a scholarship. 0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:18.679 He applied many. 0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:21.840 Months before, even though his grades were good enough, he 0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:25.600 was informed that there were no more scholarships available. He 0:05:25.800 --> 0:05:29.080 enrolled in a junior college. It looked like his dream 0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:31.400 of going to the major university was over. 0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:35.080 It looked like that was permanent. All the facts said 0:05:35.160 --> 0:05:36.239 it's not going to happen. 0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:39.320 But just a few weeks before school was to start, 0:05:39.839 --> 0:05:43.160 they called back and said something opened up, and instead 0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:46.120 of offering him the two year partial scholarship, that he 0:05:46.200 --> 0:05:50.240 applied for. They offered him a four year total scholarship 0:05:50.600 --> 0:05:54.760 and explosive blessing. Some of you today think where you 0:05:55.000 --> 0:05:58.760 are is permanent. You've been there a long time and 0:05:59.080 --> 0:06:01.440 you don't see how you can to ever rise any higher. 0:06:02.080 --> 0:06:05.280 All the facts are telling you it's impossible. But God 0:06:05.400 --> 0:06:08.720 is saying today you need to get ready. Where you 0:06:08.920 --> 0:06:13.200 are is not permanent. I have explosive blessings. 0:06:12.720 --> 0:06:13.440 Come in your way. 0:06:14.240 --> 0:06:18.200 I'm going to increase you beyond your salary. I'm gonna 0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:21.960 bless you beyond your normal income. I'm going to suddenly 0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:26.360 change things in your life. That's how the word explosion 0:06:26.680 --> 0:06:32.400 is defined. It means sudden, wide spread increase. That's what 0:06:32.600 --> 0:06:34.279 God wants to do for each. 0:06:34.200 --> 0:06:37.520 One of us. Suddenly. You didn't expect it. 0:06:37.960 --> 0:06:41.160 It's out of the ordinary, and it's not small, it's 0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:46.480 not mediocre. It's wide spread increase. That means it's so amazing, 0:06:47.000 --> 0:06:49.040 you know. It had to be the hand of God. 0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:52.400 That's what happened to one gentleman. He stopped by the 0:06:52.520 --> 0:06:55.480 church a while back and brought a very large donation 0:06:55.640 --> 0:06:56.400 to the ministry. 0:06:56.880 --> 0:06:59.599 It was his tithe. He told how he. 0:06:59.640 --> 0:07:03.360 Had was an inheritance from a family member he had 0:07:03.480 --> 0:07:06.640 never met before. In fact, he didn't even really know 0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:10.160 that they were related. But this man left him a 0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:12.920 gift that thrust his family. 0:07:12.800 --> 0:07:13.760 To a whole new level. 0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:16.920 He was able to not only pay his house off, 0:07:17.360 --> 0:07:20.400 but he paid off several other people's houses as well. 0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:23.040 I don't know about you, but I'm believing for some 0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:27.520 long lost relatives like that. I'm believing for explosive blessings. 0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:32.640 The apostle Paul talked about this in Ephesians too. He 0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:39.320 said that we would see the unlimited, immeasurable, surpassing greatness 0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:43.400 of God's favor. He was saying, we would see favor 0:07:43.680 --> 0:07:45.120 like we've never seen it before. 0:07:46.040 --> 0:07:46.640 In the natural. 0:07:46.760 --> 0:07:49.440 It may look like you could never accomplish your dreams. 0:07:49.880 --> 0:07:52.640 You've already calculated how you'll never get out of death. 0:07:53.080 --> 0:07:54.560 You've run all the numbers. 0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:58.800 But God is saying you haven't seen my explosive blessings. 0:07:59.360 --> 0:08:02.760 You haven't seen I mean the surpassing greatness of my favor. 0:08:03.440 --> 0:08:07.200 I have blessings that will catapult you years ahead. I 0:08:07.320 --> 0:08:12.720 have increase that goes beyond your normal calculations. I've learned 0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:17.200 God doesn't always take us in normal increments. There are 0:08:17.360 --> 0:08:20.400 times he'll increase us little by little. We have to 0:08:20.440 --> 0:08:23.120 be faithful day in and day out. But when you 0:08:23.320 --> 0:08:27.040 come to one of these explosive blessings, instead of going 0:08:27.080 --> 0:08:29.800 from seven to eight to nine, God will take you 0:08:29.880 --> 0:08:32.959 from seven to eight to sixty three to sixty four. 0:08:33.400 --> 0:08:38.239 That's widespread increase. Hey, you say, Joel, If the economy 0:08:38.400 --> 0:08:41.960 was better, I might believe this. If business wasn't so slow, 0:08:42.120 --> 0:08:44.599 I might get my hopes up. But this is no 0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:47.960 time to talk about increase, no time to talk about 0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:52.040 paying things off. I'm just trying to survive. The scripture 0:08:52.120 --> 0:08:55.760 talks about how God will make rivers in the desert. 0:08:56.280 --> 0:08:58.640 He will make streams in the bearing. 0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:03.360 Places may be dry and bearing in your life. Business 0:09:03.480 --> 0:09:07.000 may be slow, the economy may be down. The good 0:09:07.120 --> 0:09:09.000 news is the economy is. 0:09:09.040 --> 0:09:11.360 Not our source. God is our source. 0:09:12.120 --> 0:09:15.400 Now I'm happy to report that God is not having 0:09:15.440 --> 0:09:19.520 a down year. The economy in Heaven is not in recession, 0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:23.839 is doing just fine. As long as we stay connected 0:09:23.960 --> 0:09:28.880 to the vine, to the true and living God, to Jehovah, Jirah, 0:09:29.000 --> 0:09:32.640 the Lord, our provider, then we are connected to a 0:09:32.720 --> 0:09:33.840 supply line that. 0:09:33.920 --> 0:09:37.000 Will never run dry. Our attitude should be. 0:09:37.440 --> 0:09:39.880 I may not see how it can happen, but God, 0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:43.320 I know you have explosive blessings come in my way. 0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:48.959 I am expecting sudden, widespread increase. I'm expecting to pay 0:09:49.040 --> 0:09:52.080 my house off. I'm expecting to be a bigger giver. 0:09:52.720 --> 0:09:55.600 I'm expecting to set a new standard for my family. 0:09:56.160 --> 0:09:59.200 I remember a few years after Victory and I were married, 0:09:59.559 --> 0:10:03.120 we so our townhouse and we bought this old Rundown 0:10:03.240 --> 0:10:05.000 home on a half acre lot. 0:10:05.600 --> 0:10:08.240 It was in a nice neighborhood in a good part 0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:08.680 of town. 0:10:09.280 --> 0:10:11.680 The day we closed on the property, we were standing 0:10:11.760 --> 0:10:15.360 outside and this lady pulled up and came over to us. 0:10:15.640 --> 0:10:16.560 She was a realator. 0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:20.000 She said, I understand you just bought the property, and 0:10:20.120 --> 0:10:22.920 I have a client that will pay you twenty five 0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:24.360 percent more than. 0:10:24.320 --> 0:10:25.720 You just paid for this property. 0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:28.679 We were kind of taken back and we said, no, 0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:31.360 we're not interested in that, and she shot right back, 0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:32.960 how about fifty percent more. 0:10:33.600 --> 0:10:35.480 We kind of laughed and said no, we really want 0:10:35.520 --> 0:10:36.360 to keep the property. 0:10:36.840 --> 0:10:40.600 She said, well, congratulations, you just bought your dream house. 0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:43.720 We thought, what is she talking about to sixty year 0:10:43.760 --> 0:10:46.200 old home? It's not a dream house. It's all run down, 0:10:46.320 --> 0:10:48.839 beat up. Most people would have torn it down. We 0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:50.880 were going to fix it up and live in it. 0:10:51.400 --> 0:10:54.240 We asked her what she meant, and she explained how 0:10:54.640 --> 0:10:57.520 they were just about to change the deed restrictions in 0:10:57.640 --> 0:11:01.640 the neighborhood so you could sub the the property. Instead 0:11:01.640 --> 0:11:04.040 of having one house per lot, you could put two 0:11:04.160 --> 0:11:07.480 houses per lot. We knew nothing about that, but a 0:11:07.600 --> 0:11:10.840 year later we sold half of the property for more 0:11:10.960 --> 0:11:14.079 than we paid for the whole property. The increase from 0:11:14.120 --> 0:11:19.400 that one transaction was more than five times our annual income. Friends, 0:11:19.480 --> 0:11:23.199 God can bless you beyond your salary. He has ways 0:11:23.280 --> 0:11:26.560 to increase you that you've never dreamed of. Quit thinking 0:11:26.640 --> 0:11:29.160 that you'll never get out of debt, you'll never have 0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:33.319 a nice home. No, God has explosive blessings in your future. 0:11:34.760 --> 0:11:38.560 That one good break blessed us to a new level. 0:11:39.280 --> 0:11:42.559 With that increase, we could not only be a bigger blessing. 0:11:43.000 --> 0:11:46.440 We tithed our income, We gave offerings to help others. 0:11:46.920 --> 0:11:49.440 Plus we were able to tear that old house down 0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:52.920 and build us a new house. We never dreamed we'd 0:11:52.960 --> 0:11:55.640 be able to do that. I knew what my salary 0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:59.120 was I was working for a ministry. I wasn't working 0:11:59.160 --> 0:12:02.959 for a big corporation with stock options and incentives. But 0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:07.800 God increased us beyond our normal income. That's what God 0:12:07.920 --> 0:12:11.320 wants to do for you. As long as you are 0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:14.599 doing your best to honor God and you have a 0:12:14.679 --> 0:12:17.880 heart to help others, there's no limit to what God 0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:21.280 will do in your life. The scripture talks about how 0:12:21.400 --> 0:12:25.840 God will give us the hidden treasures found in secret places. 0:12:26.480 --> 0:12:29.720 You know what that property was. It was hidden treasure. 0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:31.840 We didn't know it was going to. 0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:35.679 Be valuable, but God did. God knows where all the 0:12:35.760 --> 0:12:36.560 good deals are. 0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:38.720 He knows where the oil, the. 0:12:39.040 --> 0:12:41.840 Gold, the diamonds are buried. God's the one that put 0:12:41.880 --> 0:12:45.760 them there. When Jesus needed money to pay his taxes, 0:12:46.200 --> 0:12:48.959 he told Peter to go to the lake. And the 0:12:49.080 --> 0:12:52.559 first fish Peter caught it had enough money in it 0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:54.720 had coins in it to pay both. 0:12:54.640 --> 0:12:56.600 Jesus and Peter's taxes. 0:12:57.040 --> 0:13:00.520 See, Jesus knew where the hidden treasure was, even the 0:13:00.600 --> 0:13:02.839 treasure that had been swallowed by a fish. 0:13:03.360 --> 0:13:04.120 What am I saying? 0:13:04.520 --> 0:13:07.840 God knows the inventions that have not yet been invented. 0:13:08.320 --> 0:13:10.959 He knows the ideas, the businesses that are going to 0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:14.680 take off. He knows the property, the real estate that's 0:13:14.720 --> 0:13:17.439 going to be valuable. There was a couple I know, 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:20.720 they were wanting to buy a house in another city 0:13:20.840 --> 0:13:24.000 and they were looking in this one particular neighborhood, a 0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:27.800 very nice place. They found this house that they really liked, 0:13:28.200 --> 0:13:30.840 but every time they tried to move forward, they didn't 0:13:30.880 --> 0:13:32.680 feel peace about it for some reason. 0:13:33.320 --> 0:13:35.440 After several months, they found a. 0:13:35.520 --> 0:13:39.240 Much larger piece of property right on the outskirts of 0:13:39.360 --> 0:13:43.160 that neighborhood. It actually bordered the neighborhood. In the natural 0:13:43.640 --> 0:13:46.880 it would have been a better investment to purchase property 0:13:47.160 --> 0:13:50.640 in the neighborhood that's where the values were higher. And 0:13:50.720 --> 0:13:53.679 although they could have afforded it, because they didn't have 0:13:53.840 --> 0:13:56.240 peace about it, they went ahead and bought this much 0:13:56.280 --> 0:13:57.880 bigger piece of property. 0:13:57.640 --> 0:13:59.319 That bordered up to that neighborhood. 0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:02.320 Was about six months after they had moved in, there 0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:05.079 was a knock on their door one day was two gentlemen. 0:14:05.520 --> 0:14:06.640 They were geologists. 0:14:07.120 --> 0:14:10.480 They told how they had been surveying and studying that 0:14:10.640 --> 0:14:14.319 whole area for many, many years. They had recently discovered 0:14:14.600 --> 0:14:17.920 there was a massive amount of oil under that subdivision. 0:14:18.440 --> 0:14:21.160 But they said the houses over there are too close together. 0:14:21.760 --> 0:14:23.960 There's no place to put our drills and all of 0:14:24.040 --> 0:14:27.080 our equipment. And if you will lease us part of 0:14:27.200 --> 0:14:30.240 your property to put our equipment on, will not only 0:14:30.360 --> 0:14:32.840 give you a commission off of your land, but we'll 0:14:32.880 --> 0:14:35.200 give you a commission off of all the homes in 0:14:35.280 --> 0:14:40.040 the neighborhood. There were twelve hundred homes in that subdivision. Today, 0:14:40.200 --> 0:14:43.080 instead of getting commission off of one home, they're getting 0:14:43.160 --> 0:14:46.800 a commission off of twelve hundred homes. Friends, God knows 0:14:47.040 --> 0:14:50.040 where the hidden treasure is. He knows how to have 0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:53.880 you at the right place at the right time. And 0:14:53.960 --> 0:14:56.120 I'm not saying that we're all going to strike all 0:14:56.320 --> 0:15:00.360 on our property. But I am saying ca can give 0:15:00.400 --> 0:15:03.400 you one idea that will catapult you to a new level. 0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:06.840 God can give you one dream that will. 0:15:06.800 --> 0:15:10.440 Increase you in amazing ways. That's what happened to a 0:15:10.520 --> 0:15:13.960 friend of my father's. His name was Henry Krause. He 0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:17.760 was a farmer, just an ordinary person. He didn't have 0:15:17.880 --> 0:15:21.200 a college degree, he didn't seem to be super talented, 0:15:21.640 --> 0:15:24.160 look like he just live a normal life, make a 0:15:24.320 --> 0:15:28.720 modest living until one night that changed. God gave him 0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:32.080 a dream, and in this dream he saw a certain 0:15:32.200 --> 0:15:35.400 kind of plow, a plow that he had never seen before. 0:15:36.080 --> 0:15:38.720 Got up the next morning so intrigued he drew it 0:15:38.800 --> 0:15:42.120 all out. Over the next few months, he built it 0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:45.240 and developed it and tested it out, and it was 0:15:45.360 --> 0:15:49.160 so successful that he had it engineered and patented. 0:15:49.800 --> 0:15:50.840 It became known. 0:15:50.840 --> 0:15:54.880 As the famous Krause plow that helped to revolutionize the 0:15:54.960 --> 0:15:59.840 farming industry. Mister Kraus went from living a normal, average 0:15:59.880 --> 0:16:03.800 life to living an extraordinary life. He was one of 0:16:03.880 --> 0:16:08.600 my father's most faithful supporters. He gave generously to help 0:16:08.720 --> 0:16:12.960 needy people all over the world, all because of one dream, 0:16:13.600 --> 0:16:18.800 one idea that was hidden treasure that God uncovered. Just 0:16:19.000 --> 0:16:25.080 like with mister Kraus, God is releasing unusual funds. 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:26.080 Back to his people. 0:16:26.640 --> 0:16:29.160 And if you will be faithful with what you have 0:16:30.040 --> 0:16:33.200 and prove to God that you can be trusted, then 0:16:33.280 --> 0:16:37.400 God will show you hidden treasures found in secret places. 0:16:37.760 --> 0:16:45.240 That means God will give you ideas, inventions, contracts, opportunity, real. 0:16:45.240 --> 0:16:48.440 Estate that will thrust you to a level that you 0:16:48.600 --> 0:16:51.600 never thought possible. And it's time for us, as. 0:16:51.520 --> 0:16:54.840 God's people to rise up and become the head and 0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:58.200 not the tell. It's time for us to be lenders 0:16:58.600 --> 0:17:02.880 and not borrows. In the coming days, there's going to 0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:06.119 be a transfer of wealth. There's going to be a 0:17:06.320 --> 0:17:11.080 major shifting of large amounts of resources and large amounts 0:17:11.080 --> 0:17:14.159 of finances back to God's people. He's going to do 0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:15.200 unusual things. 0:17:15.920 --> 0:17:17.720 Really, that's what this building is. 0:17:18.359 --> 0:17:22.280 It's a four hundred million dollar facility that we purchased 0:17:22.359 --> 0:17:26.480 for about twenty million dollars. Even after we renovated it, 0:17:27.080 --> 0:17:30.000 it still cost about a fourth of what it would 0:17:30.040 --> 0:17:34.200 have cost brand new. That's a shifting of wealth. For 0:17:34.320 --> 0:17:36.400 many years, we were on the other side of town 0:17:37.119 --> 0:17:41.760 in wood buildings, then metal buildings. The roads were too small, 0:17:42.280 --> 0:17:45.800 the parking lots weren't really adequate. At times, we were 0:17:45.840 --> 0:17:48.879 looked down on, kind of seeing as second class. But 0:17:49.080 --> 0:17:53.480 one day we came into an explosive blessing that blasts 0:17:53.560 --> 0:17:58.000 us to a new level. Today we are sitting in 0:17:58.080 --> 0:18:01.720 the premiere facility in the largest city in America. 0:18:02.280 --> 0:18:05.320 That's what God is doing today. He's stepping it up 0:18:05.359 --> 0:18:05.760 a notch. 0:18:06.800 --> 0:18:10.639 We were never created to drag through life barely making 0:18:10.720 --> 0:18:14.200 it seen a second class. We were created to reign 0:18:14.640 --> 0:18:17.720 in life as a king. You may not be there 0:18:17.920 --> 0:18:20.879 just yet, but don't you dare settle where you are. 0:18:21.520 --> 0:18:23.760 You need to get ready. God is about to do 0:18:23.960 --> 0:18:28.159 something new. He's going to release contracts and buildings and 0:18:28.320 --> 0:18:33.840 ideas and real estate inventions that will catapult his people 0:18:34.000 --> 0:18:37.160 to a new level. Now you've got to make room 0:18:37.280 --> 0:18:41.800 for it in your own thinking. Make room for explosive blessings. 0:18:42.480 --> 0:18:46.000 God has hidden treasure already laid up for you that 0:18:46.119 --> 0:18:49.800 he's about to release. That's what happened to a gentleman 0:18:49.880 --> 0:18:54.720 that I know. He attends our services regularly, very faithful supporter, 0:18:55.119 --> 0:18:58.520 very generous man. A few years back he started his 0:18:58.640 --> 0:19:02.840 own company, which is one person himself. Today he has 0:19:02.880 --> 0:19:05.760 a whole floor of offices in one of the downtown 0:19:05.880 --> 0:19:10.240 high rises. Just recently, he was awarded a contract to 0:19:10.400 --> 0:19:13.720 build one of the largest refineries in all of China, 0:19:14.160 --> 0:19:18.200 a multi billion dollar contract. He said, Joel, I was 0:19:18.320 --> 0:19:22.120 the least likely one to get this contract. Other companies 0:19:22.160 --> 0:19:27.439 that were bidding were more powerful, more influential, more experienced, 0:19:27.720 --> 0:19:32.080 much more larger. But somehow God caused me to stand out. 0:19:32.920 --> 0:19:36.600 Now he's seen as the leader in the field that's 0:19:36.680 --> 0:19:39.680 a part of the shift of wealth that God is 0:19:39.840 --> 0:19:44.359 transferring to his people, people that will help advance his kingdom. 0:19:45.160 --> 0:19:48.640 Just like with him, God can cause you to stand out. 0:19:49.280 --> 0:19:52.159 He can cause contracts to come your way. He can 0:19:52.280 --> 0:19:55.520 cause clients to be drawn to you. You may be 0:19:55.680 --> 0:19:59.320 the least likely in the natural, but with the blessing 0:19:59.520 --> 0:20:03.760 of God on your life, the odds dramatically change. You 0:20:04.160 --> 0:20:07.240 and God are a majority. You need to get ready 0:20:07.280 --> 0:20:11.000 for this transfer. It's going to be an explosion of 0:20:11.160 --> 0:20:16.760 God's goodness, sudden, widespread increase. That means it's going to 0:20:16.840 --> 0:20:20.920 be far and beyond anything you've ever seen before. Proverbs 0:20:20.960 --> 0:20:25.119 thirteen twenty two talks about this transfer. The wealth of 0:20:25.200 --> 0:20:30.159 the ungodly will eventually find its way into the hands 0:20:30.280 --> 0:20:34.879 of the righteous, for whom it has been laid up for. Notice, 0:20:34.920 --> 0:20:41.639 God has already laid up buildings, contracts, opportunities, clients, influence. 0:20:42.119 --> 0:20:44.200 They already have your name on it. 0:20:44.800 --> 0:20:48.360 If you'll just keep being your best, honoring God, being 0:20:48.400 --> 0:20:52.320 a blessing to others, eventually they will find their way 0:20:52.480 --> 0:20:55.919 into your hands, the hands of the righteous. That means 0:20:56.280 --> 0:20:59.680 right now, something is looking for you, something is trying 0:20:59.760 --> 0:21:03.840 to you. Not bad breaks, not defeat, not depression, not lack. 0:21:04.280 --> 0:21:05.480 No, you are the righteous. 0:21:05.840 --> 0:21:08.920 Promotion is looking for you. Good breaks are looking for you. 0:21:09.359 --> 0:21:13.879 Influence is looking for you. I think about this building. 0:21:14.320 --> 0:21:17.040 For more than thirty years, it was used for sports 0:21:17.119 --> 0:21:21.479 purposes and concerts. It was first called the Summit, then 0:21:21.560 --> 0:21:24.320 they changed the name to the Compact Center. But I 0:21:24.440 --> 0:21:28.640 believe if you could appeal those names back even years ago, 0:21:28.760 --> 0:21:30.879 when it was first built, you would have seen the 0:21:31.000 --> 0:21:32.440 name Lakewood Church. 0:21:33.040 --> 0:21:37.040 It had already been laid up for us. It was 0:21:37.160 --> 0:21:38.280 just a matter of time. 0:21:39.080 --> 0:21:43.720 Eventually it found its way into our hands. You have 0:21:43.920 --> 0:21:47.600 no idea the amazing things that God has already put 0:21:47.640 --> 0:21:48.119 your name on. 0:21:48.720 --> 0:21:50.639 They've already been laid up for you. 0:21:51.440 --> 0:21:54.560 Somebody else may have got them started, somebody else may 0:21:54.600 --> 0:21:58.000 have done the hard work. But eventually they will find 0:21:58.080 --> 0:22:02.520 their way into your hands. Friends, you have some eventuallyes 0:22:02.640 --> 0:22:03.440 in your future. 0:22:04.119 --> 0:22:04.520 You know what it? 0:22:04.640 --> 0:22:07.040 Eventually is an explosive blessing. 0:22:07.840 --> 0:22:11.840 Unexpectedly a business is dropped in your lap, a contract 0:22:12.040 --> 0:22:15.440 when you weren't the most qualified, and inheritance. 0:22:14.840 --> 0:22:16.240 From somebody you didn't even know. 0:22:17.160 --> 0:22:21.240 God is saying I am shifting things from the hands 0:22:21.320 --> 0:22:24.479 of people that are not concerned about me, that are 0:22:24.560 --> 0:22:28.200 not concerned about others, into the hands of people that 0:22:28.320 --> 0:22:29.400 I can trust. 0:22:29.359 --> 0:22:33.040 To advance my kingdom. I believe that's you and I. 0:22:33.840 --> 0:22:37.520 So I'm saying today, get ready for explosive blessings. Get 0:22:37.600 --> 0:22:41.840 ready for the surpassing greatness of God's favor. Victoria and 0:22:41.880 --> 0:22:44.359 I used to travel to India with my father quite 0:22:44.359 --> 0:22:47.399 a bit. One time I met a young pastor that 0:22:47.600 --> 0:22:50.920 was very poor. He didn't have running water, he didn't 0:22:50.960 --> 0:22:54.040 have electricity. He lived out on this field in this 0:22:54.200 --> 0:22:57.720 small hut. Right next door there was a man that 0:22:57.840 --> 0:23:01.560 had a large farm with hundreds of cows and a 0:23:01.640 --> 0:23:04.320 lot of crops, and he would sell milk and other 0:23:04.440 --> 0:23:07.560 vegetables to people in the village. But this man was 0:23:07.760 --> 0:23:11.760 very harsh and unkind, and he would take the prices 0:23:11.880 --> 0:23:14.159 up much higher than they should have been, just to 0:23:14.240 --> 0:23:15.040 show people. 0:23:14.800 --> 0:23:16.840 That he was in control and he was the boss. 0:23:16.920 --> 0:23:19.480 And often the people would have to go without food. 0:23:20.280 --> 0:23:23.080 One day, about ten of his cows got out and 0:23:23.200 --> 0:23:26.000 came over to the property where the pastor and his 0:23:26.160 --> 0:23:29.600 family lived. And understand, having a cow was a big deal. 0:23:30.200 --> 0:23:32.760 You'd have milk and you'd have other products. That you 0:23:32.800 --> 0:23:35.639 could sell to other people. When that owner saw that 0:23:35.720 --> 0:23:37.560 his cows were out, he got some of his workers 0:23:37.640 --> 0:23:39.600 to go out and bring the cows. 0:23:39.320 --> 0:23:40.320 Back to his property. 0:23:40.680 --> 0:23:43.240 The next day, those same ten cows came back to 0:23:43.320 --> 0:23:47.520 the pastor's land. This happened again and again, day after day. 0:23:47.840 --> 0:23:50.399 For some reason, those cows just wanted to be with 0:23:50.520 --> 0:23:53.560 this pastor. Finally, that owner said, you know what, forget 0:23:53.600 --> 0:23:53.960 about it. 0:23:54.400 --> 0:23:56.159 Just let him have the cows. It's not going to 0:23:56.240 --> 0:23:56.760 hurt anything. 0:23:57.080 --> 0:23:59.600 Of course, the pastor saw it as a sign from God. 0:24:00.160 --> 0:24:04.000 He started selling milk and other dairy products to people 0:24:04.080 --> 0:24:07.080 in the village, but he sold them much less. 0:24:07.200 --> 0:24:09.600 Expensive than that other men. 0:24:10.359 --> 0:24:12.920 Before long, people were lined up at his door, and 0:24:13.280 --> 0:24:16.240 his business began to grow. He bought more cows and 0:24:16.440 --> 0:24:20.320 more equipment. Several years later, that other farmer came over 0:24:20.359 --> 0:24:22.640 and said, you know what, I can't compete with you anymore. 0:24:22.920 --> 0:24:25.800 Why don't you just take over my farm. He bought 0:24:25.880 --> 0:24:29.359 that man's property for a fraction of the price. But listen, 0:24:29.480 --> 0:24:33.440 it all started because those ten cows came over and 0:24:33.560 --> 0:24:37.240 would not leave his property. What is that the wealth 0:24:37.440 --> 0:24:41.280 of the ungodly being transferred to the hands of the righteous. 0:24:43.560 --> 0:24:46.040 Quit wondering and worrying. 0:24:45.800 --> 0:24:48.000 House they have it going work out, thinking Oh, I 0:24:48.080 --> 0:24:51.080 don't have the connections, I don't have the education. Listen, 0:24:51.200 --> 0:24:55.760 God knows how to have your cows find you. What 0:24:56.040 --> 0:24:59.920 has your name on it, the contracts, the businesses, the eye, 0:25:00.000 --> 0:25:04.960 It is the influence the clients. Eventually they will find 0:25:05.000 --> 0:25:09.359 their way into your hands. When you see somebody that's successful, 0:25:09.800 --> 0:25:13.360 that doesn't honor God, that doesn't walk in integrity, don't 0:25:13.400 --> 0:25:15.920 ever be envious. In the back of your mind, you 0:25:16.000 --> 0:25:18.280 can think, you know what, they may be working for me. 0:25:19.000 --> 0:25:21.520 They may be building a business with my name on it. 0:25:22.040 --> 0:25:24.440 They may be earning funds that God's going to drop 0:25:24.480 --> 0:25:29.400 into my hands. Our attitude should be right now somewhere. 0:25:29.600 --> 0:25:32.560 Cows are looking for me, Promotion is looking for me. 0:25:33.200 --> 0:25:37.359 Explosive blessings are coming my way. I have a pastor 0:25:37.480 --> 0:25:40.720 friend that was planning on building a new sanctuary. Is 0:25:40.800 --> 0:25:43.800 going to cost about forty million dollars. One day, out 0:25:43.880 --> 0:25:47.000 of the blue, the mayor of his city called. He 0:25:47.200 --> 0:25:49.320 told how there was a group that built a large 0:25:49.440 --> 0:25:53.359 facility was going to be a casino, but before they 0:25:53.520 --> 0:25:56.240 moved in, that group went out of business. They had 0:25:56.320 --> 0:25:59.840 forty acres of paved parking. The building was large enough 0:25:59.880 --> 0:26:03.560 to house three football fields on the inside. It's just 0:26:03.640 --> 0:26:07.359 a few miles from this pastor's church. The mayor asked 0:26:07.400 --> 0:26:10.000 if he was interested in purchasing it, and the pastor 0:26:10.080 --> 0:26:12.840 thought it would surely be forty fifty million dollars. The 0:26:12.920 --> 0:26:15.679 mayor said, no, you can purchase it for less than 0:26:15.720 --> 0:26:19.400 two million dollars. A man that owned a big production 0:26:19.600 --> 0:26:22.720 company in the area heard that the pastor was interested. 0:26:23.240 --> 0:26:25.639 He said, I've got a state of the art sound system. 0:26:26.119 --> 0:26:29.280 I paid three million dollars for it, but if you're interested, 0:26:29.520 --> 0:26:32.400 I'll sell it to you for fifty thousand. Things begin 0:26:32.520 --> 0:26:35.440 to fall into place. Instead of having to build a 0:26:35.520 --> 0:26:39.600 new facility, God dropped in his hands a much bigger, 0:26:39.960 --> 0:26:42.960 much better facility. That's a part of the ship, a 0:26:43.040 --> 0:26:46.880 part of the transfer. Somebody else built it, somebody else 0:26:46.960 --> 0:26:50.000 paid the majority of the cost, but at the right time, 0:26:50.440 --> 0:26:52.879 it found its way into the hands of the godly. 0:26:53.520 --> 0:26:58.040 You got to know right now something is looking for you, something. 0:26:57.800 --> 0:26:59.440 Already has your name on it. 0:27:00.000 --> 0:27:03.440 If you'll just keep being your best, honoring God, being 0:27:03.480 --> 0:27:07.440 a blessing to others, Dreaming big Eventually it's going to 0:27:07.520 --> 0:27:11.560 find its way into your hands. Remember, God knows where 0:27:11.600 --> 0:27:15.520 the hidden treasure is. He knows where the opportunities are, 0:27:15.720 --> 0:27:19.640 the contracts, the ideas you need to fulfill your destiny. 0:27:20.400 --> 0:27:22.440 Some of you have been stuck in a rut, thinking 0:27:22.520 --> 0:27:25.399 that you've reached your limits. God is saying where you 0:27:25.560 --> 0:27:29.440 are is not permanent. I have explosive blessings come in 0:27:29.520 --> 0:27:32.159 your way, blessings that are gonna thrust you to a 0:27:32.280 --> 0:27:37.200 new level.
