Thanks for listening to 0:01:34.000 --> 0:01:36.759 our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry. 0:01:36.920 --> 0:01:39.240 If you enjoy today's message, why don't you be a 0:01:39.280 --> 0:01:40.800 blessing and share it with a friend. 0:01:41.120 --> 0:01:43.840 We appreciate you and pray for God's very best in 0:01:43.920 --> 0:01:58.320 your life.

He was visiting churches all 0:02:18.080 --> 0:02:21.560 across the nation. While in New York, he noticed this 0:02:21.680 --> 0:02:24.880 golden phone on the wall with the sign that said 0:02:25.440 --> 0:02:29.600 calls ten thousand dollars per minute. He asked the pastor 0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:31.919 what it meant, and the pastor explained how that. 0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:33.519 Was a direct line to Heaven. 0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:35.799 If you were willing to pay the price, you could 0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:40.280 talk directly to God. The reporter continued visiting other churches 0:02:40.280 --> 0:02:43.000 he encountered the same golden phone with the same sign. 0:02:43.520 --> 0:02:46.000 When he finally made it down to Texas, he saw 0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:48.560 the phone on the wall, but the sign said twenty 0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:50.040 five cents per call. 0:02:50.800 --> 0:02:53.800 Intrigued, he asked the pastor why it was so much cheaper. 0:02:54.200 --> 0:02:57.600 The pastor said, you're in Texas now, it's a local call, 0:03:02.360 --> 0:03:03.040 all right. 0:03:03.280 --> 0:03:06.000 Caught up your bibles say it like you mean it. 0:03:06.680 --> 0:03:07.919 This is my Bible. 0:03:08.320 --> 0:03:10.760 I am what it says, I am, I have what 0:03:10.840 --> 0:03:13.200 it says I have, I can do what it says 0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:14.680 I can do today. 0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:16.640 I will be taught the word of God. 0:03:17.040 --> 0:03:21.600 I boldly confess my mind is alert, my heart is receptive. 0:03:21.960 --> 0:03:25.560 I will never be the same. In Jesus' name, God 0:03:25.639 --> 0:03:26.160 bless you. 0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:29.720 I want to talk to you today about having a 0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:34.400 never say die attitude. If you're going to fulfill your destiny, 0:03:34.680 --> 0:03:37.120 you have to have a made up mind that no 0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:40.840 matter what comes against you, no matter how long it takes, 0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:44.040 no matter how many times you get knocked down, you 0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:45.520 are not going to stay down. 0:03:46.120 --> 0:03:47.800 You're not going to start complaining. 0:03:48.400 --> 0:03:51.200 You're not going to get soured on life and give 0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:54.640 up on your dreams. You're going to keep pressing forward 0:03:55.000 --> 0:03:57.840 looking for your next victory. There's got to be a 0:03:57.960 --> 0:04:03.480 holy determination, never say die attitude. The people that succeed 0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:08.000 are not necessarily the most talented. They are the most determined. 0:04:08.400 --> 0:04:12.400 They know how to persevere. When they fail, they don't 0:04:12.400 --> 0:04:15.680 see that as final. They learn from it and try again. 0:04:16.360 --> 0:04:17.320 When they face. 0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:20.800 Obstacles, they don't shrink back and get discouraged. They dig 0:04:20.880 --> 0:04:23.359 their heels in and fight the good fight of faith 0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:24.599 and in life. 0:04:24.640 --> 0:04:26.720 There's always something coming against us. 0:04:27.240 --> 0:04:32.720 Disappointments, setbacks, unfair situations, too many people just give up 0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:35.440 and think, well, it just wasn't meant to be. My 0:04:35.560 --> 0:04:38.480 marriage is not going to last. We're having too many problems. 0:04:38.880 --> 0:04:42.719 I'll never accomplish my dreams. The economy's too bad. I'll 0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:46.160 never get well, Joel. The doctor's report doesn't look good. 0:04:46.480 --> 0:04:46.680 Now. 0:04:46.720 --> 0:04:49.800 If you're going to experience God's best, you have to 0:04:49.839 --> 0:04:52.279 have a backbone made of steel. 0:04:52.560 --> 0:04:55.520 You can't be weak, wimpy, spineless. 0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:59.320 You have to have a warrior mentality, no matter how 0:04:59.360 --> 0:05:03.279 long it's taking. Deep down on the inside. Your attitude 0:05:03.279 --> 0:05:06.120 should be. If I have to stand in faith my 0:05:06.279 --> 0:05:09.680 whole lifetime, I am not going to give up on 0:05:09.720 --> 0:05:12.400 what God has put in my heart. And when you 0:05:12.480 --> 0:05:16.360 have this holy determination, when you have your mind made 0:05:16.440 --> 0:05:19.720 up that you're going to outlast anything that comes against you, 0:05:20.360 --> 0:05:25.280 then no person, no obstacle, no sickness, no set back, 0:05:25.520 --> 0:05:29.600 no betrayal, all the forces of darkness cannot keep you 0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:32.440 from your God given destiny. And I want to light 0:05:32.520 --> 0:05:36.240 a new fire on the inside. God did not create 0:05:36.320 --> 0:05:39.160 us to give up when it gets hard. He didn't 0:05:39.240 --> 0:05:43.279 create us to get discouraged when we face obstacles. He 0:05:43.320 --> 0:05:47.760 made us as more than conquerors. You have victory in 0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:52.200 your DNA. When God breathed his life into you, he 0:05:52.279 --> 0:05:59.960 breathed perseverance, determination, strength, courage, endurance. You have staying power 0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:05.800 that means you can outlast every attack. You've been anointed 0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:07.560 to make it through difficult times. 0:06:08.200 --> 0:06:09.240 If you will dig your. 0:06:09.120 --> 0:06:12.360 Heels in and have this never say die attitude, then 0:06:12.400 --> 0:06:15.240 no matter what comes against you, no matter how long 0:06:15.279 --> 0:06:18.320 it takes or how difficult it is, when it's all 0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:21.480 said and done, you'll be able to say, I'm still standing. 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:24.440 The enemy did his best, but his best. 0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:27.320 Was not enough. I've still got a smile on my face, 0:06:27.600 --> 0:06:30.000 a song in my heart, a spring in my step. 0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:34.120 I know I am a victor and not a victim. 0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:37.960 David said in Psalm fifty one, verse ten, God renew 0:06:38.240 --> 0:06:42.600 a right spirit within me. The amplified translation tells us 0:06:42.680 --> 0:06:46.600 what a right spirit is. It says, renew a steadfast 0:06:46.920 --> 0:06:51.320 and persevering spirit. Notice when God considers our spirit to 0:06:51.360 --> 0:06:55.320 be right, when we're determined, when we're persevering, when we 0:06:55.440 --> 0:06:59.719 have this never say die attitude, Not when we're giving up, 0:07:00.279 --> 0:07:04.720 not when we're negative, discouraged, complaining. I never get any 0:07:04.720 --> 0:07:07.760 good breaks. I'm so in debt, I'll never get out. 0:07:08.200 --> 0:07:10.960 Nobody's treating me right. No, that's not the right spirit. 0:07:11.080 --> 0:07:13.800 That don't keep you right where you are. The right 0:07:13.880 --> 0:07:17.440 spirit is to say, yes, I'm having some big challenges, 0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:20.760 but I know I serve a big God, and what 0:07:20.840 --> 0:07:23.200 was meant for my harm? I know God's gonna use 0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:25.720 it for my good. So I Am not going to 0:07:25.760 --> 0:07:30.160 sit around depressed and defeated thinking about what didn't work out, 0:07:30.560 --> 0:07:33.120 what I don't have, and who hurt me. No, I've 0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:36.040 got a destiny to fulfill. I'm gonna get up and 0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:38.120 go again. I know I've been. 0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:40.120 Armed with strength for every battle. 0:07:40.440 --> 0:07:43.040 I know the forces that are for me are greater 0:07:43.200 --> 0:07:46.360 than the forces that are against me. I'm expecting God 0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:49.160 to show up and show out in a great way 0:07:49.200 --> 0:07:49.880 in my life. 0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:51.480 That's a right spirit. 0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:55.400 But some of you today, you've allowed your circumstances to 0:07:55.440 --> 0:07:58.160 push you down and convince you that it's too much, 0:07:58.800 --> 0:08:02.520 it's never gonna change. Now you're tempted to give up 0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:05.520 on what God's placed in your heart. But I'm asking 0:08:05.560 --> 0:08:08.880 you to dig your heels in and say, no, this 0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:12.440 is a new day. God is renewing a right spirit 0:08:12.520 --> 0:08:15.600 within me. I will not give up on my dreams. 0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:18.960 I will not give up because somebody did me wrong. 0:08:19.440 --> 0:08:22.160 I will not give up because I tried and failed. 0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:25.080 I will not give up because the medical report doesn't 0:08:25.120 --> 0:08:28.240 look good. I will not give up because it's taken 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:29.400 longer than I thought. 0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:31.120 I've got a made up mind. 0:08:31.400 --> 0:08:34.800 I'm gonna become everything God's created me to be, and 0:08:34.880 --> 0:08:37.400 I'm gonna have everything God intended for me to have. 0:08:38.320 --> 0:08:42.199 There's got to be a relentlessness on the inside that says, 0:08:42.200 --> 0:08:46.160 no matter what happens, I refuse to quit. As long 0:08:46.200 --> 0:08:48.760 as God has given me breath to breathe, I'm gonna 0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:54.280 keep pressing forward, pursuing my dreams, believing for his very best. Well, 0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:56.839 you say, Joel, I don't understand why this has happened 0:08:56.880 --> 0:08:59.959 to me. Why did I get cancer? Why did I 0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:03.520 get laid off? Why was I raised in a negative environment? 0:09:03.720 --> 0:09:06.880 I don't know why, But I do know this. Nothing 0:09:07.080 --> 0:09:10.199 that has happened to you can keep you from your 0:09:10.240 --> 0:09:14.080 God given destiny. You might have had an unfair past, 0:09:14.480 --> 0:09:16.640 but you don't have to have an unfair future. 0:09:17.200 --> 0:09:19.760 You can take the hand you've been dealt and win 0:09:19.840 --> 0:09:20.839 with it. 0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:23.440 It may not make sense, you may not understand it, 0:09:23.880 --> 0:09:26.920 but God would not have allowed it unless he had 0:09:26.960 --> 0:09:29.719 a divine purpose. And if you will shake off the 0:09:29.840 --> 0:09:33.720 self pity, shake off the discouragement, then God will not 0:09:33.840 --> 0:09:37.079 only bring you out, but he's promised he will bring 0:09:37.080 --> 0:09:40.640 you out better off than you were before. Our attitude 0:09:40.679 --> 0:09:43.800 should be this thing is not going to defeat me. 0:09:44.320 --> 0:09:46.880 It may have knocked me down, but it didn't knock 0:09:46.960 --> 0:09:49.320 me out. I'm gonna get back up and go again. 0:09:50.720 --> 0:09:54.720 Like that energizer bunny that we see on TV. 0:09:54.800 --> 0:09:55.720 You gotta keep. 0:09:55.559 --> 0:09:59.720 Going and going and going. I have a friend that's 0:09:59.720 --> 0:10:03.800 had hencer three times. I've never once heard him complain. 0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:07.280 I've never once seen him down and defeated. He has 0:10:07.360 --> 0:10:11.400 this never say die attitude. He knows as long as 0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:14.839 he's in faith, nothing can snatch him out of God's hands. 0:10:15.200 --> 0:10:18.560 The fact is, the medical report doesn't look good, but 0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:22.240 he has another report. He's not focused just on what 0:10:22.320 --> 0:10:26.640 medical science says. He's focused on what God says. This 0:10:26.679 --> 0:10:31.000 has been going on for over ten years. He is relentless. 0:10:31.240 --> 0:10:35.160 He refuses to give up. His attitude is this too 0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:39.720 shall pass. It's not permanent, It's only temporary. Sickness cannot 0:10:39.840 --> 0:10:42.280 stay in my body. I'm a temple of the most 0:10:42.320 --> 0:10:46.800 tied God. Many people in his shoes by now they 0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:50.600 would have given up, gotten discouraged, gotten worn down. Not him, 0:10:50.840 --> 0:10:55.600 Why he has a right spirit. He has this holy determination. 0:10:56.160 --> 0:10:58.760 No matter what it looks like, no matter how long 0:10:58.800 --> 0:11:02.600 it's taken, He's unshakable, immovable, He's. 0:11:02.480 --> 0:11:03.480 Got a made up mind. 0:11:04.400 --> 0:11:06.680 Not too long ago, the cancer came back for the 0:11:06.760 --> 0:11:09.840 third time. The doctors told him they were going to 0:11:09.960 --> 0:11:13.679 harvest his white blood cells before they gave him chemotherapy. 0:11:14.200 --> 0:11:17.640 That way they could use those cells to help restore 0:11:17.679 --> 0:11:21.040 his immune system after the treatment. These are the killer 0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:24.120 cells that help fight off the cancer. He asked the 0:11:24.120 --> 0:11:27.040 doctors how many of the white blood cells they needed. 0:11:27.320 --> 0:11:28.920 They gave him this huge number. 0:11:29.320 --> 0:11:31.640 He said to the doctors, I'm going to give you 0:11:31.720 --> 0:11:34.880 twice the amount that you're looking for. 0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:36.120 For the next few months. 0:11:36.240 --> 0:11:39.240 While he was waiting to take the treatment, all through 0:11:39.240 --> 0:11:41.760 the day, he'd go around saying, Father, thank you that 0:11:41.840 --> 0:11:46.160 my white blood cells are multiplying, they're reproducing, getting stronger, 0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:49.600 more effective, and they will do exactly what you've created 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:53.920 him to do. They will attack and destroy these cancerous cells. 0:11:54.640 --> 0:11:57.319 Most people, while they're waiting to take the treatment. They 0:11:57.400 --> 0:12:00.520 just relax, take it easy, to get prepared. Not this 0:12:00.640 --> 0:12:03.320 young man. Every day he'd go out and work out, 0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:05.040 lift weights, run. 0:12:05.559 --> 0:12:09.280 All the while he was envisioning himself healthy and whole. 0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:12.000 Through his eyes of faith, he could see those white 0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:13.520 blood cells reproducing. 0:12:14.160 --> 0:12:16.840 He went back to the doctors. They said, you're a 0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:17.800 man of your word. 0:12:18.160 --> 0:12:20.720 You have given us more than twice the number of 0:12:20.760 --> 0:12:22.079 white blood cells that. 0:12:22.080 --> 0:12:22.920 We were looking for. 0:12:24.960 --> 0:12:28.640 He went through the treatment and today he's totally healthy 0:12:28.720 --> 0:12:31.199 and whole, completely cancer free. 0:12:31.760 --> 0:12:35.720 What am I saying? You've got to have a never 0:12:35.800 --> 0:12:36.839 say die attitude. 0:12:37.559 --> 0:12:40.680 Life may throw you some curves, there may be some 0:12:40.800 --> 0:12:45.800 bumps along the way, but always remember every setback is 0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:49.880 a setup for a greater comeback. That difficulty was never 0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:52.640 meant to destroy you. It was meant to strengthen you. 0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:55.959 If you will stay in faith, God will turn every 0:12:56.000 --> 0:12:59.960 battlefield into a blessing field. He'll not only bring you out, 0:13:00.240 --> 0:13:02.760 but he'll bring you out better off than you were before. 0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:04.320 You may be in. 0:13:04.280 --> 0:13:07.080 Tough times right now, but don't let that cause you 0:13:07.120 --> 0:13:11.400 to get sour. Don't complain, don't blame God, and think 0:13:11.440 --> 0:13:14.200 why is this happening to me. Now, learn to dig 0:13:14.240 --> 0:13:17.800 your heels in, look that obstacle in the eye, and 0:13:17.880 --> 0:13:19.839 say you have met your match with me. 0:13:20.520 --> 0:13:23.120 I know who I am, and I know who's on 0:13:23.280 --> 0:13:24.199 my side. 0:13:24.320 --> 0:13:27.600 The creator of the universe is breathing in my direction. 0:13:28.160 --> 0:13:32.040 I've got victory in my dna. I will not quit. 0:13:32.360 --> 0:13:35.040 I will not give up. I will not get depressed, 0:13:35.240 --> 0:13:38.960 I will not start complaining. My report is this too 0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:42.400 shall pass. This season will come to an end, and 0:13:42.480 --> 0:13:46.400 a new season will begin. A new season in my health, 0:13:46.760 --> 0:13:49.560 a new season in my finances, a new season with 0:13:49.640 --> 0:13:51.120 my family friends. 0:13:51.160 --> 0:13:52.240 Don't get discouraged. 0:13:52.400 --> 0:13:56.520 A new season is coming your way. Winter always gives 0:13:56.559 --> 0:14:00.200 way to spring. The scripture puts it like this. Being 0:14:00.280 --> 0:14:03.280 may endure for a night, but joy is coming in 0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:06.200 the morning. It may be winter in your life. 0:14:06.240 --> 0:14:06.760 Right now. 0:14:07.240 --> 0:14:10.560 Things are difficult. You don't see any growth. It's kind 0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:14.240 of dark and gloomy. The good news is spring is 0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:17.880 on its way. A brighter season is right around the corner. 0:14:18.840 --> 0:14:21.480 One time I had this tree in my yard that 0:14:21.560 --> 0:14:24.640 looked as dead as can be. All my other trees 0:14:24.680 --> 0:14:27.200 were so healthy, and they were full of these thick 0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:30.000 green leaves. I have this man that helped me to 0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:32.880 trim the trees, and I called him and told him 0:14:32.920 --> 0:14:35.920 about this dead tree, and he came over to look 0:14:35.960 --> 0:14:38.280 at it. And when he got there, I pointed it 0:14:38.320 --> 0:14:40.960 out and he smiled and said, Joel, that tree is 0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:45.440 not dead. It's just not in season. I thought to myself, 0:14:45.480 --> 0:14:49.640 this tree is dead. It was ugly and bearing, the 0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:52.320 bark was chipping off, the leaves were empty. I said, 0:14:52.360 --> 0:14:55.000 are you sure it's not dead? He said, I'm positive. 0:14:55.320 --> 0:14:58.120 It's not the same type of tree as your other trees. 0:14:58.360 --> 0:15:01.960 It's always going to bloom. A few months later, sure enough, 0:15:02.040 --> 0:15:05.120 in a few months, that tree was full of leaves, 0:15:05.160 --> 0:15:07.360 just as beautiful as all the other trees. 0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:10.280 What's my point. It looked dead to me. 0:15:11.080 --> 0:15:13.920 It looked like it would never produce fruit, looked like 0:15:13.960 --> 0:15:16.760 it would never be healthy again. But the fact is 0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:20.120 the tree was as alive as it could be. It 0:15:20.200 --> 0:15:23.720 had a bright future. It was simply out of season. 0:15:24.400 --> 0:15:26.800 And in the same way at times we look at 0:15:26.840 --> 0:15:30.040 things in life and think this is dead. My marriage 0:15:30.040 --> 0:15:33.440 is over. We hardly even talk anymore. This job will 0:15:33.440 --> 0:15:36.440 never get any better. I'll never get well. It looks 0:15:36.480 --> 0:15:39.800 dead to us. But just like that, tree. It's really 0:15:39.920 --> 0:15:41.640 not dead, it's. 0:15:41.520 --> 0:15:42.560 Just not in season. 0:15:43.360 --> 0:15:46.160 Don't do like I almost did and cut down the tree. 0:15:46.760 --> 0:15:50.000 In other words, don't give up on a dream just 0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:52.960 because you don't see anything happening and it looks dead. 0:15:53.760 --> 0:15:55.800 Don't give up on a marriage because you hit a 0:15:55.800 --> 0:15:58.400 few bumps in the road. Don't give up on a 0:15:58.480 --> 0:16:01.600 child that's off course and been that way a long time. 0:16:01.960 --> 0:16:05.400 There's another season coming you don't know. It may be 0:16:05.600 --> 0:16:09.480 right around the corner. Your new season could start tomorrow. 0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:13.760 You could see things start to blossom in your life. 0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:14.360 This coming week. 0:16:14.680 --> 0:16:17.200 You get a good break at the office, you meet 0:16:17.240 --> 0:16:17.960 a new client. 0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:20.640 Things take off in your finances. 0:16:20.480 --> 0:16:23.200 In your health, you get a good report from the doctor. 0:16:23.520 --> 0:16:27.480 Your strength comes back. You feel good once again. In 0:16:27.520 --> 0:16:28.120 your family. 0:16:28.520 --> 0:16:31.240 That child that hadn't spoken to you in years, all 0:16:31.240 --> 0:16:33.640 of a sudden, he calls and wants to be restored. 0:16:34.040 --> 0:16:36.560 What happened? The season changed. 0:16:37.000 --> 0:16:39.400 It looked like it was dead, looked like it was 0:16:39.520 --> 0:16:42.600 never work out, But you stepped into a new season. 0:16:43.360 --> 0:16:46.200 I love how the scripture talks about how our latter 0:16:46.360 --> 0:16:50.280 days will be better than our former days. You may 0:16:50.320 --> 0:16:53.000 have had some great seasons in years past, but you 0:16:53.120 --> 0:16:57.440 haven't seen anything yet. God has seasons of promotion, blessing, 0:16:57.560 --> 0:17:01.160 and favor in your future you've never seen before. Season 0:17:01.240 --> 0:17:04.440 that will even boggle your mind. Well, you say, Joel, 0:17:04.480 --> 0:17:07.240 I don't see how that could happen. Nothing's going my 0:17:07.320 --> 0:17:10.440 way doesn't look like it's ever going to change. 0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:11.359 Here's the key. 0:17:11.680 --> 0:17:14.639 You've got to learn to walk by faith and not 0:17:14.800 --> 0:17:17.439 by sight. If I would have just gone by what 0:17:17.480 --> 0:17:20.120 I could see, I would have asked that man cut 0:17:20.160 --> 0:17:22.760 down the tree. It's dead, it's finished, let's get rid 0:17:22.800 --> 0:17:26.199 of it. But that man could see something in the 0:17:26.240 --> 0:17:30.160 tree that I could not see. He had a trained eye. 0:17:30.800 --> 0:17:34.520 Maybe you think my marriage looks like it's dead. In 0:17:34.600 --> 0:17:37.200 my finances looks like I'll never get out of death, 0:17:37.680 --> 0:17:38.560 in my health. 0:17:38.440 --> 0:17:40.159 Looks like I'll never get well. 0:17:40.800 --> 0:17:44.520 But perhaps today I can see something that you cannot see. 0:17:44.680 --> 0:17:46.040 Through my eyes of faith. 0:17:46.320 --> 0:17:49.040 I can see a new season come in your way. 0:17:49.720 --> 0:17:52.800 You may be sick, but I can see you healthy 0:17:52.840 --> 0:17:56.800 and home. You may be struggling in your finances, but 0:17:56.880 --> 0:18:00.399 I can see you blessed, prosperous with more then you 0:18:00.400 --> 0:18:03.960 can ask or think. You may be lonely and discouraged, 0:18:04.240 --> 0:18:07.399 but I can see you happy and fulfilled with the 0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:10.200 person of your dreams. Now you've got to do your 0:18:10.280 --> 0:18:14.160 part and get in agreement with God. Anybody can quit, 0:18:14.840 --> 0:18:18.080 anybody can give up when it gets hard. Anybody can 0:18:18.119 --> 0:18:21.520 get discouraged because it's taken a long time. That's easy, 0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:25.040 But it takes a man or woman of great faith 0:18:25.520 --> 0:18:29.120 to say, I don't see anything good happening in my life. 0:18:29.240 --> 0:18:32.600 It looks like my dreams have died. Nothing is going 0:18:32.680 --> 0:18:36.200 my way. But I am not moved by what I see. 0:18:36.680 --> 0:18:39.399 I'm moved by what I know, and deep down in 0:18:39.480 --> 0:18:43.880 my spirit, I know a new season is coming my way. 0:18:44.000 --> 0:18:45.480 I know I would not have. 0:18:45.480 --> 0:18:48.960 Breath to breathe if God didn't have another victory in 0:18:49.040 --> 0:18:52.040 my future. So I'm not going to go through this 0:18:52.160 --> 0:18:56.880 day or go through my life with no enthusiasm focused 0:18:56.920 --> 0:18:57.800 on my problems. 0:18:57.920 --> 0:18:59.480 I'm gonna focus on my God. 0:19:00.000 --> 0:19:02.679 You know my latter days will be better than my 0:19:02.800 --> 0:19:07.399 former days. You got to have this holy determination. You 0:19:07.440 --> 0:19:11.280 can't allow the setbacks of life cause you to get 0:19:11.640 --> 0:19:14.560 numb and become indifferent to where you give up on 0:19:14.680 --> 0:19:18.119 what God has put in your heart. The right spirit says, 0:19:18.600 --> 0:19:21.639 this may be difficult, but I know I've been armed 0:19:21.640 --> 0:19:24.560 with strength for every battle. This may be taken a 0:19:24.560 --> 0:19:26.080 long time, but I know. 0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:28.439 A new season's come in my way. 0:19:28.600 --> 0:19:31.879 Life may have treated me unfair, but I know God 0:19:31.920 --> 0:19:35.399 will pay me back for every injustice. I love the 0:19:35.440 --> 0:19:38.679 promise God gives us In Isaiah sixty one, verse seven. 0:19:39.200 --> 0:19:43.160 The message translation puts it this way, because you've got 0:19:43.160 --> 0:19:46.840 a double dose of trouble and more than your share 0:19:46.960 --> 0:19:51.080 of contempt, your inheritance in the land will be double, 0:19:51.440 --> 0:19:53.960 and your joy will go on forever. 0:19:55.160 --> 0:19:57.720 When trouble comes your way. 0:19:58.720 --> 0:20:01.040 Instead of getting down to surge, giving up, no have 0:20:01.119 --> 0:20:01.840 the attitude. 0:20:02.200 --> 0:20:05.679 This trouble just qualified me for double It. 0:20:05.600 --> 0:20:07.720 Was meant for my harm, but I know God's gonna 0:20:07.800 --> 0:20:10.439 use it to my advantage. For instance, if for some 0:20:10.520 --> 0:20:12.800 reason you were to get laid off, no big deal. 0:20:13.119 --> 0:20:15.640 I'm not worried. I'm not gonna live life upset. 0:20:15.920 --> 0:20:18.639 I know a new season is coming my way, and 0:20:18.680 --> 0:20:20.960 it's not gonna be an average season. It's gonna be 0:20:21.000 --> 0:20:24.919 a season of increase. Double the benefits, double the friends, 0:20:25.000 --> 0:20:25.520 double the. 0:20:25.480 --> 0:20:27.639 Income in your marriage. 0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:30.119 If it's under attack, I'm not gonna give up and 0:20:30.119 --> 0:20:31.160 take the easy way out. 0:20:31.280 --> 0:20:32.800 I'm getting ready for double. 0:20:33.800 --> 0:20:36.760 Most likely every one of us is going through something. 0:20:37.080 --> 0:20:42.040 Life happens, disappointments, setbacks. Now I heard somebody say losers 0:20:42.200 --> 0:20:46.399 focus on what they're going through, but winners focus on 0:20:46.440 --> 0:20:47.280 where they're going to. 0:20:48.240 --> 0:20:49.800 In other words, if. 0:20:49.640 --> 0:20:52.320 Somebody did me wrong, I'm not gonna focus on that. 0:20:52.480 --> 0:20:55.440 I'm going to forgive them and focus on where God 0:20:55.520 --> 0:20:58.320 is taking me to. I'm gonna focus on the double 0:20:58.400 --> 0:21:01.480 that God has promised me. Like my friend that's had 0:21:01.560 --> 0:21:05.600 cancer three times, he's not consumed by that sickness. He 0:21:05.720 --> 0:21:09.120 is not overwhelmed by what he's going through. He's focused 0:21:09.119 --> 0:21:11.560 on his future and where God has taken him to. 0:21:12.359 --> 0:21:16.000 It's funny he tells everyone cancer made me better looking. 0:21:16.800 --> 0:21:18.320 They look at him kind of strange. 0:21:18.440 --> 0:21:21.199 Why do you say that, he says, because before I 0:21:21.280 --> 0:21:24.760 had cancer, nobody told me I look good, But now 0:21:24.840 --> 0:21:25.520 everybody that. 0:21:25.480 --> 0:21:26.840 Sees me says, you look great. 0:21:29.359 --> 0:21:35.320 Many times, what we're going through is simply transportation to 0:21:35.400 --> 0:21:38.720 get us to our destination. When my father went to 0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:41.840 be with the Lord, every voice was telling me your 0:21:41.880 --> 0:21:43.080 best days are behind you. 0:21:43.359 --> 0:21:44.560 It's never gonna work out. 0:21:45.040 --> 0:21:47.320 I could have easily lived with a chip on my shoulder, 0:21:47.480 --> 0:21:51.640 upset discouraged. No, I understood this principle. I didn't focus 0:21:51.720 --> 0:21:54.480 on what I was going through. I focused on where 0:21:54.520 --> 0:21:57.920 God was taking me to. I knew a new season 0:21:58.080 --> 0:22:00.800 was coming my way. I knew that double dose of 0:22:00.840 --> 0:22:04.240 trouble qualified me for a double dose of God's favor. 0:22:04.760 --> 0:22:08.040 And even though it was difficult and at times uncertain, 0:22:08.359 --> 0:22:12.040 I had this holy determination. I just kept pressing forward. 0:22:12.320 --> 0:22:15.680 I refused to quit, refuse to give up on my dreams. 0:22:16.119 --> 0:22:18.760 And what I thought would be my darkest hour turned 0:22:18.800 --> 0:22:21.439 out to be my brightest hour. That's what launched me 0:22:21.720 --> 0:22:24.800 into a whole new dimension of my life. I was 0:22:24.840 --> 0:22:27.400 talking to a gentleman a while back, and he had 0:22:27.440 --> 0:22:30.360 just lost his job. He had been with this company 0:22:30.400 --> 0:22:34.320 for many years, had a great position, making good money, 0:22:34.760 --> 0:22:36.760 and I thought for sure he would be upset and 0:22:36.800 --> 0:22:38.560 distraught and I was going to have to cheer him up. 0:22:38.960 --> 0:22:41.679 But it was just the opposite. He had a smile 0:22:41.760 --> 0:22:44.320 on his face. He was as happy as can be. 0:22:44.760 --> 0:22:47.680 I'll never forget what he said to me. He said, Joel, 0:22:47.760 --> 0:22:50.800 I just lost my job, and I can't wait to 0:22:50.880 --> 0:22:53.680 see what God's going to do next. What is that 0:22:53.960 --> 0:22:57.640 a right spirit? He was knocked down, but he wasn't 0:22:57.720 --> 0:23:00.800 knocked out. He knew when one door closes, God's going 0:23:00.880 --> 0:23:03.480 to open up another door. He wasn't focused on what 0:23:03.520 --> 0:23:06.120 he was going through. He was focused on where God 0:23:06.240 --> 0:23:08.760 was taking him to. He knew a new season was 0:23:08.760 --> 0:23:12.080 coming his way. That's the kind of people God's looking for, 0:23:12.440 --> 0:23:15.880 people that have a never say diet attitude. I heard 0:23:15.880 --> 0:23:18.720 a story about these two little frogs that fell into 0:23:18.800 --> 0:23:21.720 a big bowl of cream, and the sides were so 0:23:21.760 --> 0:23:25.080 slick that the frogs couldn't climb up out of it. 0:23:25.320 --> 0:23:27.800 They had to paddle and paddle just to stay alive. 0:23:27.880 --> 0:23:31.080 And this went on and on. That first little frog 0:23:31.440 --> 0:23:35.080 did everything possible to try to get out, but every 0:23:35.080 --> 0:23:36.879 time he got to the top of the bowl it 0:23:37.000 --> 0:23:39.440 was too slick. He lost his grip and it would 0:23:39.480 --> 0:23:43.080 fall back. After trying it hundreds and hundreds of times, 0:23:43.400 --> 0:23:44.520 he finally said to the. 0:23:44.480 --> 0:23:47.640 Other frog, we're doomed. We're never going to get out. 0:23:47.920 --> 0:23:51.200 We're just wasting our time and energy paddling around. 0:23:51.440 --> 0:23:54.520 We might as well give up. He gave up, went under. 0:23:54.600 --> 0:23:56.240 You didn't see anything more of him. 0:23:56.800 --> 0:23:59.520 The second frog he tried as well everything he could 0:23:59.600 --> 0:24:02.240 to get out, but he too kept losing his grip 0:24:02.320 --> 0:24:06.640 and falling back. But this second frog was different. He'd 0:24:06.680 --> 0:24:08.080 been coming to Lakewood. 0:24:09.680 --> 0:24:12.240 This frog had a never say die attitude. 0:24:12.760 --> 0:24:15.520 He thought, I am not going to quit, I am 0:24:15.560 --> 0:24:18.200 not going to give up. I'm going to keep paddling 0:24:18.320 --> 0:24:21.760 as long as I possibly could. And he just kept 0:24:21.760 --> 0:24:25.000 paddling and paddling thirty minutes, forty five minutes an hour. 0:24:25.440 --> 0:24:28.480 That cream got harder and harder. 0:24:28.280 --> 0:24:31.280 Made it more and more difficult, but he just kept 0:24:31.280 --> 0:24:34.760 going and going and going. Two or three hours later, 0:24:34.920 --> 0:24:38.040 he had paddled so much he had stirred that cream, 0:24:38.160 --> 0:24:41.560 and the cream finally turned into butter. It got hard 0:24:41.640 --> 0:24:43.800 enough for what he could just step on top. Eventually 0:24:43.880 --> 0:24:46.919 he hopped out of it. That's what we have to 0:24:46.960 --> 0:24:52.080 do in life. When it gets difficult, you don't see 0:24:52.119 --> 0:24:55.560 any way out, looks like you'll never get well, never 0:24:55.600 --> 0:24:58.680 get out of debt. Your thoughts will tell you it's over. 0:24:59.240 --> 0:25:02.639 Just give up wasting your time. You've had cancer for 0:25:02.720 --> 0:25:03.680 three times now. 0:25:03.840 --> 0:25:06.880 Just accept it. Your marriage is never gonna work out. 0:25:07.119 --> 0:25:07.960 It's too hard. 0:25:08.440 --> 0:25:11.119 No, the harder it gets, the closer you are to 0:25:11.200 --> 0:25:11.760 stepping out. 0:25:12.160 --> 0:25:14.919 And if you will, just keep on keeping on moving. 0:25:15.200 --> 0:25:19.440 Forward, living with faith and expectancy, being your best each day. 0:25:20.080 --> 0:25:23.399 Then like that little frog, one day, what should have 0:25:23.520 --> 0:25:26.600 destroyed you will be the very thing that helps you 0:25:26.720 --> 0:25:31.080 rise to a new level. Now understand, the greater your challenge, 0:25:31.359 --> 0:25:34.960 the greater your future. If you have a big obstacle today, 0:25:35.119 --> 0:25:38.120 that just tells me you've got a big future. Keep 0:25:38.160 --> 0:25:42.920 pressing forward, be relentless, have a never say die attitude. 0:25:42.960 --> 0:25:46.080 Sir Edmund Hillary was the first man to ever climb 0:25:46.119 --> 0:25:48.920 to the top of Mount Everest, but he didn't make 0:25:48.960 --> 0:25:52.160 it on his first attempt. He had tried once before 0:25:52.520 --> 0:25:55.480 and not only failed, but he lost one of his men. 0:25:55.720 --> 0:25:58.240 One of his team members was killed. And after this 0:25:58.359 --> 0:26:01.359 failed expedition, he was in London talking with a group 0:26:01.400 --> 0:26:04.520 of reporters. There was a big picture of Mount Everest 0:26:04.640 --> 0:26:07.320 right beside it. He turned and looked at it and said, 0:26:07.840 --> 0:26:11.920 Mount Everest, you have defeated me, but I will return 0:26:12.320 --> 0:26:16.119 and defeat you because you can't get any bigger, but 0:26:16.280 --> 0:26:20.639 I can. You may be facing obstacles today that look huge. 0:26:21.080 --> 0:26:24.560 Maybe you too have tried and failed. I can't promise 0:26:24.600 --> 0:26:27.280 you that the obstacle will get any smaller, but I 0:26:27.320 --> 0:26:31.119 can promise you can get bigger. You have the power 0:26:31.240 --> 0:26:33.720 of the Most High God on the inside of you 0:26:33.920 --> 0:26:38.320 right now. Don't be weak, wimpy, spineless. Our attitude should be. 0:26:38.720 --> 0:26:41.639 This thing may have defeated me before, but it is 0:26:41.680 --> 0:26:44.879 not going to defeat me again. I know who I am, 0:26:44.920 --> 0:26:47.879 a child of the Most High God. I am anointed, 0:26:48.000 --> 0:26:51.560 equipped in power. I can do all things through Christ. 0:26:51.600 --> 0:26:55.719 This adversity is no match for me now. 0:26:55.720 --> 0:26:59.280 I believe, even right now, God is breathing new life 0:26:59.359 --> 0:27:04.760 into your space. Your strength is increasing, your vision is enlarging. 0:27:05.000 --> 0:27:10.320 You are strong, determined, well, able not only to outlast 0:27:10.440 --> 0:27:14.439 every adversity, but to overcome it. You may have tried 0:27:14.600 --> 0:27:18.640 and failed before, but God is saying go again. This 0:27:18.760 --> 0:27:21.760 time is going to be different. No, the obstacle didn't 0:27:21.800 --> 0:27:25.119 get smaller, you got bigger. God enlarged you. 0:27:25.240 --> 0:27:26.440 He increased you. 0:27:26.440 --> 0:27:31.040 You've got more faith, more confidence, more determination. My prayer 0:27:31.280 --> 0:27:33.359 is that you'll go out of here today with a 0:27:33.400 --> 0:27:37.800 greater resolve, with a new fire on the inside, determined 0:27:37.920 --> 0:27:40.800 that you're going to become everything God's created you to be. 0:27:41.440 --> 0:27:44.800 When you face difficulties, don't focus on what you're going through. 0:27:45.119 --> 0:27:47.879 Focus on what you're going to get ready for a 0:27:47.960 --> 0:27:49.520 double dose of God's favor. 0:27:50.080 --> 0:27:50.960 Now I know some of you. 0:27:51.080 --> 0:27:53.520 Right now, there are things in your life that you 0:27:53.560 --> 0:27:57.800 could easily give up on. A marriage, a dream, your health, 0:27:58.000 --> 0:28:01.960 your finances. There's no growth. It looks dead, no life, 0:28:01.960 --> 0:28:05.960 no victory. But remember, just like my tree, it's not 0:28:06.080 --> 0:28:06.680 really dead. 0:28:06.920 --> 0:28:08.240 It's just not in season. 0:28:08.600 --> 0:28:11.200 And if you will keep pressing forward with a made 0:28:11.280 --> 0:28:14.240 up mind, a never say die attitude, the good news 0:28:14.359 --> 0:28:17.000 is your new season is on its way. 0:28:17.760 --> 0:28:19.920 I want to declare this over each one of you. 0:28:19.920 --> 0:28:23.040 You are coming in to a new season of growth, 0:28:23.600 --> 0:28:27.919 a new season of opportunity, a new season in your health, 0:28:28.400 --> 0:28:31.800 a new season in your finances, a new season in 0:28:31.840 --> 0:28:39.440 your relationships.
