But thanks for tuning in. 0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:37.320 Thanks again for coming out in person. 0:02:37.919 --> 0:02:40.320 I'd like to start with something funny and I heard 0:02:40.320 --> 0:02:43.760 about this senior citizen. He was driving down the freeway 0:02:43.840 --> 0:02:47.119 in his brand new Corvette with the top down, going 0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:50.600 eighty miles an hour when he saw flashing red lights 0:02:50.680 --> 0:02:53.760 in his rear view mirror from a state trooper. Without 0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:56.240 thinking about it, he floored it took it up to 0:02:56.280 --> 0:02:59.440 one hundred miles an hour. He heard the sovereigns behind him, 0:02:59.520 --> 0:03:03.200 and finally came to his senses and pulled over. He said, officer, 0:03:03.360 --> 0:03:05.800 I'm so sorry. I don't know what I was thinking. 0:03:06.320 --> 0:03:10.000 The trooper said, listen, it's Friday, four o'clock. My shift 0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:12.400 is over in thirty minutes. If you'll tell me a 0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:14.280 reason you're speeding that I've. 0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:16.000 Never heard before. I'll let you go. 0:03:16.680 --> 0:03:19.800 The man thought about it, said officer. Years ago, my 0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:22.399 wife ran off with a state trooper and I thought 0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:23.480 you were bringing her back. 0:03:24.600 --> 0:03:26.680 The officer said, have a great weekend. 0:03:28.400 --> 0:03:31.120 Say it like you mean it. This is my Bible. 0:03:31.480 --> 0:03:33.680 I am what it says I am. I have what 0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:36.080 it says I have. I can do what it says 0:03:36.120 --> 0:03:38.800 I can do. Today I will be taught the word 0:03:38.840 --> 0:03:42.840 of God. I boldly confess my mind is alert, my 0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:47.200 heart is receptive. I will never be the same. In Jesus' name, 0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:51.800 God bless you. I want to talk to you today about. 0:03:51.800 --> 0:03:52.880 Ignore the roar. 0:03:53.760 --> 0:03:57.160 Anytime we try to move forward, thoughts will come telling 0:03:57.240 --> 0:03:59.560 us what we can't do, and how it's not going 0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:02.760 to work out, how the problem is too big. We 0:04:02.840 --> 0:04:05.600 know what God promised, we believe it in our heart, 0:04:05.880 --> 0:04:09.360 but all these doubts start to bombard our mind. The 0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:13.520 scripture says the enemy goes about as a roaring lion, 0:04:14.080 --> 0:04:17.960 seeking whom he may devour. The purpose of a lion's 0:04:18.040 --> 0:04:22.680 roar is to intimidate their opponents, to strike fear and terror, 0:04:23.000 --> 0:04:26.080 so much so that it will paralyze the other animal. 0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:30.960 There are animals that are larger an elephant, a hippopotamus. 0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:35.159 They're much bigger, stronger, But when the lion roars, it's 0:04:35.200 --> 0:04:40.080 so powerful, so intimidating, they back down in the same way. 0:04:40.480 --> 0:04:44.040 Our enemy loves to roar, not out loud, but in 0:04:44.080 --> 0:04:49.279 our thoughts. He uses intimidation, fear, doubt to try to 0:04:49.320 --> 0:04:53.159 paralyze us, thoughts like you'll never get well. You saw 0:04:53.240 --> 0:04:57.240 the medical report, you'll never break the addiction. Everyone in 0:04:57.279 --> 0:05:00.960 your family struggles. You can't accomplish that dream. You don't 0:05:01.000 --> 0:05:05.120 have the talent. How you handle the roar will determine 0:05:05.240 --> 0:05:08.320 whether or not you reach your destiny. If you believe 0:05:08.400 --> 0:05:11.760 the lies, let the fear take root, it will keep 0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:14.960 you from seeing the promise. You have to learn to 0:05:15.160 --> 0:05:19.520 ignore the roar, don't pay attention to the threats. The 0:05:19.720 --> 0:05:23.400 enemy is all bark and no bite. He goes about 0:05:23.720 --> 0:05:25.200 as a roaring lion. 0:05:25.640 --> 0:05:27.800 He's not a lion. He doesn't have. 0:05:27.760 --> 0:05:31.320 Any power over you. The only power he has is 0:05:31.360 --> 0:05:32.479 the power you give. 0:05:32.360 --> 0:05:34.080 Him by believing the roar. 0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:39.480 When those thoughts of worry come fear anxiety, recognize what's 0:05:39.480 --> 0:05:43.760 happening it's simply the enemy roaring. That's what he does. 0:05:44.440 --> 0:05:47.479 You can't stop the roar. You can't pray away the 0:05:47.560 --> 0:05:51.039 negative thoughts. Get so determined that you're never going to 0:05:51.040 --> 0:05:53.760 feel fear, not going to allow the threats in. 0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:57.000 You're going to hear the roar. But you don't have 0:05:57.080 --> 0:05:59.880 to be intimidated. You don't have to live worried. 0:06:00.640 --> 0:06:03.680 The roar doesn't mean you're not in faith, doesn't mean 0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:06.760 you'll never see the dream. The roar is a sign 0:06:07.080 --> 0:06:10.280 that what God promised is on the way. The enemy 0:06:10.320 --> 0:06:13.320 wouldn't be worrying if he didn't sense there were. 0:06:13.200 --> 0:06:14.560 Great things in your future. 0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:18.000 He wouldn't be shouting those threats. If he didn't know 0:06:18.440 --> 0:06:21.159 you were a giant killer. He wouldn't be telling you 0:06:21.240 --> 0:06:25.799 those lies if healing, freedom, abundance wasn't around the corner. 0:06:26.800 --> 0:06:30.279 The scripture says the enemy is a liar and there 0:06:30.320 --> 0:06:31.680 is no truth in him. 0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:34.159 When he roars, you can. 0:06:34.040 --> 0:06:37.240 Take the opposite of what he's saying. You'll never meet 0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:39.800 the right person. You've been single so long. 0:06:40.120 --> 0:06:40.800 Lord, Thank you. 0:06:40.960 --> 0:06:43.080 Now I know the right person is on the way. 0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:47.440 I believe they're already headed my direction. You hear that roar, 0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:50.720 your child will never get back on course. You raised 0:06:50.800 --> 0:06:53.039 him right, But look at where he is now take 0:06:53.080 --> 0:06:56.680 the opposite father, Thank you. Now, I know that as 0:06:56.720 --> 0:06:58.960 for me and my house, we will serve the Lord, 0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:01.640 that my child he will fulfill his purpose. 0:07:01.520 --> 0:07:02.960 That he will do great things. 0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:07.120 The reason the enemy is roaring is because you're closer 0:07:07.160 --> 0:07:11.760 than you think. He's trying to threaten you with intimidation fear. 0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:15.760 The truth is the roar means you're a threat to him. 0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:20.920 Start ignoring the roar, Quit living worried about your health, 0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:25.080 your finances. How you can accomplish that dream. God has 0:07:25.120 --> 0:07:26.440 not brought you this far. 0:07:26.320 --> 0:07:28.920 To leave you. He's taken care of you in the past. 0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:30.960 He's going to take care of you in the future. 0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:35.920 Says The enemy goes about seeking whom he may devour. 0:07:36.640 --> 0:07:40.840 That means he can't devour everyone. What determines whether or 0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:43.360 not you can be devoured is what do you. 0:07:43.360 --> 0:07:46.720 Do with the roar. If you believe the roar, then 0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:47.560 you'll be defeated. 0:07:48.120 --> 0:07:52.280 If you dwell on the lies, live worried, intimidated, afraid, 0:07:52.680 --> 0:07:56.200 you won't see the promises come to pass. When my 0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:59.960 mother was diagnosed with terminal liver cancer back in nineteen 0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:03.840 eighty one. The medical report didn't look good, but she 0:08:03.960 --> 0:08:07.560 believed what God promised, that he would restore health back 0:08:07.600 --> 0:08:11.000 into her, that she would live and not die. But 0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:15.120 just because she believed that didn't stop the roar. Just 0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:19.520 because you have faith you're declaring promises, doesn't mean you're 0:08:19.560 --> 0:08:23.000 not going to hear lies, threats, thoughts of fear. 0:08:23.560 --> 0:08:27.119 It's not going to work out. Just give up. It's over. 0:08:27.960 --> 0:08:30.920 You can't stop the roar, but you can't ignore it. 0:08:31.600 --> 0:08:34.120 You don't have to dwell on all the negative thoughts 0:08:34.280 --> 0:08:36.800 telling you that it's not going to work out, you're 0:08:36.800 --> 0:08:39.079 not going to get well, not going to see your 0:08:39.120 --> 0:08:40.079 family restored. 0:08:40.800 --> 0:08:42.320 Those thoughts will be loud. 0:08:43.040 --> 0:08:47.040 The enemy can be compelling, persuasive, intimidating. 0:08:47.600 --> 0:08:48.920 Don't pay it any attention. 0:08:49.400 --> 0:08:52.600 He wouldn't be roaring if victory wasn't in your future. 0:08:53.520 --> 0:08:56.640 My mother would be lying in bed in the middle 0:08:56.679 --> 0:08:59.839 of the night, and the thought would come saying, you 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:01.760 can wear that new pink dress. 0:09:01.520 --> 0:09:04.400 You bought to your funeral. You can be buried in 0:09:04.480 --> 0:09:05.120 that outfit. 0:09:05.760 --> 0:09:08.600 She had plenty of opportunities to listen to the roar, 0:09:09.200 --> 0:09:13.280 live worried, depressed. If she had done that, she wouldn't 0:09:13.320 --> 0:09:17.800 be here today. How you handle the roar determines whether. 0:09:17.679 --> 0:09:19.199 Or not you can be devoured. 0:09:19.920 --> 0:09:23.480 Don't let the negative thoughts play, the threats, the fear, 0:09:23.720 --> 0:09:24.520 the intimidation. 0:09:25.000 --> 0:09:26.360 Start ignoring the roar. 0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:31.720 Keep your mind positive, hopeful, faith filled. I read where 0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:36.120 lions are territorial. One reason they roar is to keep 0:09:36.200 --> 0:09:40.559 other animals off their territory. If a leopard, a cheetah, 0:09:40.679 --> 0:09:44.280 a giraffe starts to get close, then they get loud. 0:09:44.400 --> 0:09:48.320 It's to try to intimidate them, invoke fear. That roar 0:09:48.440 --> 0:09:51.600 is saying, stay off my territory. If you come closer, 0:09:51.679 --> 0:09:55.120 there's going to be a fight. The same principle is 0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:58.840 true with our enemy. When you start to take new ground, 0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:03.360 you go after your healing, your freedom, your abundance. The 0:10:03.559 --> 0:10:07.720 enemy thinks that's his territory. He thinks that belongs to him. 0:10:08.240 --> 0:10:11.880 So you'll hear that roar louder than ever. He's hoping 0:10:11.920 --> 0:10:15.560 to intimidate you to where you turn back and don't 0:10:15.600 --> 0:10:18.160 go after what God put in your heart. 0:10:18.600 --> 0:10:19.840 How many people hear. 0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:22.920 The roar and give up on their dream, quit believing 0:10:22.960 --> 0:10:24.520 for their healing, think. 0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:27.640 They could never get out of debt. Have a new perspective. 0:10:27.960 --> 0:10:31.000 The roar is a sign that you're moving toward what 0:10:31.120 --> 0:10:31.960 God promised. 0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:34.080 You wouldn't hear the roar if. 0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:37.040 You weren't about to go where you've never been, see 0:10:37.120 --> 0:10:41.760 favor influence like you've never seen. When my father went 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:44.600 to be with the Lord, I had never ministered, but 0:10:44.679 --> 0:10:46.959 I knew I was supposed to step up and pasture 0:10:47.040 --> 0:10:47.480 the church. 0:10:48.320 --> 0:10:52.880 Thoughts started bombarding my mind. You can't minister Joel. Nobody's 0:10:52.920 --> 0:10:55.280 going to listen to you. You don't have the training, 0:10:55.559 --> 0:10:57.840 the experience. You're going to get up there and look 0:10:57.920 --> 0:10:58.520 like a fool. 0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:02.880 The enemy started roaring, trying to keep me from stepping 0:11:02.920 --> 0:11:08.679 into my purpose. Those thoughts were loud, intimidating, compelling. In 0:11:08.720 --> 0:11:12.440 one sense, everything they were saying was true. But God 0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:15.440 will put things in your spirit that don't make sense. 0:11:15.240 --> 0:11:18.040 To your mind. You don't have to figure it all out. 0:11:18.360 --> 0:11:21.400 All you have to do is believe, get in agreement 0:11:21.480 --> 0:11:23.880 with God and not the fear in doubt. 0:11:24.559 --> 0:11:26.480 The enemy didn't want me to go further. 0:11:26.720 --> 0:11:29.280 He didn't want to give up that ground. That's why 0:11:29.320 --> 0:11:33.079 he roared so loud. In the same way, he's sitting 0:11:33.160 --> 0:11:36.520 on your promised land. Don't be surprised if you hear 0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:40.160 all kinds of doubt, fear you can't do it. You're 0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:44.160 not that talented. You've had that problem too long. Nobody 0:11:44.160 --> 0:11:47.120 in your family is successful. You had a disadvantage. 0:11:47.440 --> 0:11:50.720 Tune that all out. What God put in your spirit 0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:53.600 belongs to you. Now go after it. 0:11:54.080 --> 0:11:56.560 You have to get in agreement with your heart and 0:11:56.600 --> 0:11:59.600 not your head. If I would have listened to the roar, 0:12:00.000 --> 0:12:02.440 I would have turned around and never made it into 0:12:02.480 --> 0:12:05.240 my promised land. If I would have let the fear 0:12:05.600 --> 0:12:09.440 intimidation take root, I wouldn't be up here. I wouldn't 0:12:09.480 --> 0:12:12.280 have seen the books, would have seen the compact center, 0:12:12.559 --> 0:12:16.240 wouldn't have seen serious radio. Are you missing out on 0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:20.320 something because you're listening to the roar? Are you watering 0:12:20.320 --> 0:12:24.439 down dreams, playing it safe, stuck in your comfort zone, 0:12:25.040 --> 0:12:28.520 not believing you can beat the cancer, accepting the addiction. 0:12:29.520 --> 0:12:34.319 My prayer is you'll recognize it's only a roar. Those 0:12:34.360 --> 0:12:39.000 thoughts that are limiting, defeated, intimidating, They are lies to 0:12:39.080 --> 0:12:39.920 try to keep. 0:12:39.720 --> 0:12:43.600 You from the greatness that's in you. Do yourself a favor. 0:12:44.040 --> 0:12:45.240 Start ignoring the roar. 0:12:46.120 --> 0:12:49.959 Yes it's loud, Yes it's convincing. This is where faith 0:12:50.040 --> 0:12:53.040 has to kick in. I'm going to believe what God 0:12:53.160 --> 0:12:56.280 says about me. I am who he says I am. 0:12:56.600 --> 0:12:59.520 I can do what he says I can do. I 0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:03.760 was intimidated, didn't know if I could do it. But 0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:08.240 I started speaking victory. I started declaring the promises over 0:13:08.280 --> 0:13:11.319 my life. I am strong in the Lord. I can 0:13:11.360 --> 0:13:14.040 do all things through Christ. I've been raised up for 0:13:14.120 --> 0:13:19.480 such a time as this. I'm equipped, empowered, anointed. Sometimes 0:13:19.679 --> 0:13:22.520 you need to ignore the roar. Other times you need 0:13:22.559 --> 0:13:25.600 to roar back when those lies say that you'll never 0:13:25.679 --> 0:13:30.559 get well. Instead of accepting it, roar back, No thanks. 0:13:30.800 --> 0:13:33.560 God is restoring health back in to me. I will 0:13:33.600 --> 0:13:37.000 live and not die. The enemy is good at roaring. 0:13:37.440 --> 0:13:40.320 You need to get good at roaring. Well, you've seen 0:13:40.360 --> 0:13:41.079 your best days. 0:13:41.120 --> 0:13:44.760 Man, it's all downhill from here. No thanks, You must 0:13:44.760 --> 0:13:47.679 have the wrong person. My latter days will be better 0:13:47.720 --> 0:13:51.160 than my former days. God has taken me from glory 0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:54.280 to glory. With your family, It's never gonna get back 0:13:54.320 --> 0:13:57.280 on course, look how long it's been. Just accept it 0:13:57.760 --> 0:14:01.000 instead of letting that discourage you don't you roar back. 0:14:01.600 --> 0:14:02.160 No thanks. 0:14:02.240 --> 0:14:04.720 As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. 0:14:05.200 --> 0:14:07.880 My children will be mighty in the land. What God 0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:11.320 started he will finish. Quit letting the roar. 0:14:11.440 --> 0:14:12.600 Dominate your life. 0:14:13.120 --> 0:14:16.920 Take control of your thought life, the battles taking place. 0:14:16.720 --> 0:14:17.360 In our mind. 0:14:17.880 --> 0:14:20.840 The enemy knows if he can control your thoughts, he 0:14:20.920 --> 0:14:24.240 can control your life. You can't keep him from roaring, 0:14:24.720 --> 0:14:27.960 But when you recognize his tactics, when you know he 0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:30.920 goes about as a roaring lion, then you can deal 0:14:30.960 --> 0:14:31.840 with them properly. 0:14:32.400 --> 0:14:35.040 You won't let the roar keep you from your purpose. 0:14:35.640 --> 0:14:39.240 It may be intimidating, but it cannot stop what God 0:14:39.240 --> 0:14:43.160 has ordained for you. Ignore the roar, keep moving forward, 0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:47.080 and God will get you to your destiny. Second Chronicles 0:14:47.120 --> 0:14:51.080 thirty two. The king of Syrium had his army surround 0:14:51.200 --> 0:14:54.800 the city of Judah. They were camped around the walls, 0:14:55.040 --> 0:14:58.520 about to break through and take the city. His plan 0:14:58.560 --> 0:15:01.960 was to go to Jerusalem next and attack it. King 0:15:02.080 --> 0:15:05.880 Hezekiah told the Israelites not to worry that God was going. 0:15:05.760 --> 0:15:06.840 To take care of them. 0:15:07.360 --> 0:15:10.880 The Syrian king sent a letter to Hezekiah saying, what 0:15:11.000 --> 0:15:13.720 makes you think we're not going to defeat you, like 0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:17.800 we're defeating all these other cities. Their gods didn't save them. 0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:20.760 Your god is not going to save you. He sent 0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:24.120 this letter trying to intimidate them. Then he sent some 0:15:24.200 --> 0:15:27.760 of his men to Jerusalem. They came to the walls. 0:15:28.240 --> 0:15:32.600 Verse eighteen says they shouted threats, trying to terrify the. 0:15:32.600 --> 0:15:35.400 People so it would make them easier to capture. 0:15:36.200 --> 0:15:39.200 They knew if they could defeat them in their thinking, 0:15:39.720 --> 0:15:43.560 if they could get the Israelites fearful, intimidated, then they 0:15:43.560 --> 0:15:46.960 could defeat them in real life. The Israelites hurt all 0:15:46.960 --> 0:15:51.520 the threats, the insults, mocking their god, making fun of them. 0:15:51.920 --> 0:15:53.960 The Syrians thought they would panic. 0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:58.400 Fall apart, but King Hezekiah knew how to ignore the roar. 0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:01.920 He said to the people, do not be afraid of 0:16:01.960 --> 0:16:05.160 the King of Syria or his mighty army, for there 0:16:05.240 --> 0:16:08.320 is a power far greater on our side. He may 0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:10.520 have a great army, but they are just men. 0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:13.200 We have the Lord, our God to fight for us. 0:16:14.040 --> 0:16:17.480 The Syrians shouted the threats, but they fell on deaf ears. 0:16:17.920 --> 0:16:21.840 They tried to intimidate, but the Israelites didn't take the bait. 0:16:22.920 --> 0:16:26.760 The enemy has no new tricks. He's not creative. He 0:16:26.840 --> 0:16:32.280 uses the same tactics, the roaring lion, loud threats, loud thoughts. 0:16:32.600 --> 0:16:35.520 It's not going to work out, this problem's too big. 0:16:36.040 --> 0:16:41.400 Give up, surrender, quit believing. He's expecting these negative thoughts. 0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:43.080 To make it easier to defeat you. 0:16:43.720 --> 0:16:47.440 What he doesn't realize is you're like Hezekiah. You know 0:16:47.560 --> 0:16:51.360 his tactics, You're aware of his schemes. He's all bark 0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:54.480 and no bite when you call his hand on it, 0:16:54.760 --> 0:16:56.760 when you say no thanks, I'm not afraid. 0:16:57.200 --> 0:16:58.400 I'm not intimidated. 0:16:58.760 --> 0:17:01.240 The problem may be big, but I know my God 0:17:01.320 --> 0:17:04.480 is bigger. The medical report may not look good, but 0:17:04.600 --> 0:17:06.520 God can do what medicine cannot do. 0:17:07.119 --> 0:17:10.840 He has the final saying. Or these people against. 0:17:10.400 --> 0:17:13.639 Me may be powerful, I'll admit that, but my God 0:17:13.840 --> 0:17:14.879 is all powerful. 0:17:15.080 --> 0:17:18.919 He flung stars into space, He spoke worlds into existence. 0:17:19.200 --> 0:17:21.760 Him being for me is more than the world being 0:17:21.800 --> 0:17:22.280 against me. 0:17:23.440 --> 0:17:25.800 God won't let you get in a problem that he 0:17:25.840 --> 0:17:26.760 can't get you out of. 0:17:27.359 --> 0:17:30.200 He won't give you a dream that you can accomplish. 0:17:30.600 --> 0:17:35.520 Tune out all the negative, the threats, the doubt, the fear, intimidation, 0:17:36.040 --> 0:17:39.879 that's to be expected. That's the roaring lion doing what 0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:41.720 he does to try to stop you. 0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:44.240 Now do your part. Ignore the roar. 0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:49.360 Hezekiah went and found the prophet Isaiah, and they started praying. 0:17:50.160 --> 0:17:55.280 When you feel bombarded by doubt, fear, opposition, find someone 0:17:55.400 --> 0:17:58.320 full of faith that will stand in agreement with you. 0:17:58.920 --> 0:18:01.640 The scripture says one can chase a thousand. 0:18:01.560 --> 0:18:03.720 But two can put ten thousand to flight. 0:18:04.480 --> 0:18:07.760 In these times when the lion is roaring, you don't 0:18:07.840 --> 0:18:08.840 need people. 0:18:08.640 --> 0:18:09.920 That will agree with the lion. 0:18:10.720 --> 0:18:14.920 Well, I'll pray. But my grandmother died of that same illness. Joela, 0:18:14.960 --> 0:18:16.920 I don't see how you can get the compact center. 0:18:17.200 --> 0:18:20.520 That other company is so much bigger. No find in, Isaiah. 0:18:20.800 --> 0:18:22.400 Find someone that says. 0:18:22.240 --> 0:18:25.800 If you believe you're gonna get well, you believe you're 0:18:25.800 --> 0:18:29.760 gonna see overflow in a pandemic, you believe you're gonna 0:18:29.800 --> 0:18:33.240 do great things. Count me in. I'm a believer, I'm 0:18:33.240 --> 0:18:38.800 in agreement with God. All things are possible, Isaiah. In Hezekiah, 0:18:38.920 --> 0:18:43.600 they ignored the threats. They started praying faith filled prayers. 0:18:44.200 --> 0:18:47.919 What you're saying when the enemy is roaring is very important. 0:18:48.480 --> 0:18:52.160 If you're speaking defeat, giving life to the negative. You're 0:18:52.160 --> 0:18:55.520 going to get stuck. You're drawing in what you're saying. 0:18:56.240 --> 0:18:59.480 I can't believe this happened. I'm so afraid. I don't 0:18:59.520 --> 0:19:01.359 know what I'm going to do. I don't see a 0:19:01.400 --> 0:19:05.080 way out. Don't get in agreement with the roar. Speak 0:19:05.200 --> 0:19:07.000 victory in the face of defeat. 0:19:07.880 --> 0:19:10.560 As this enemy was shouting threats. 0:19:10.640 --> 0:19:14.800 Hezekiah said to the people, be strong and of good courage, 0:19:15.080 --> 0:19:18.080 for our God will deliver us. When he could have 0:19:18.160 --> 0:19:22.000 been complaining, he was prophesying victory. When he could have 0:19:22.040 --> 0:19:26.680 been panicked. He was declaring God's favor. Verse twenty one 0:19:26.760 --> 0:19:30.679 says the Lord sent an angel that destroyed the whole 0:19:30.840 --> 0:19:34.800 Syrian army, all of its commanders and all of its officers. 0:19:35.480 --> 0:19:38.879 The Israelites didn't have to fight, they didn't have to 0:19:38.920 --> 0:19:43.480 defend themselves. The threats were loud, they were intimidating, but 0:19:43.560 --> 0:19:46.960 they weren't real. And what's playing so loud in your 0:19:47.040 --> 0:19:49.760 mind telling you that the sickness is permanent. 0:19:50.240 --> 0:19:51.760 The depression will hinder you. 0:19:51.600 --> 0:19:54.320 Your whole life, your business will never go. 0:19:54.240 --> 0:19:55.080 To a new level. 0:19:55.680 --> 0:19:58.359 That roar is to try to convince you to give 0:19:58.440 --> 0:19:59.880 up on what God promised. 0:20:00.440 --> 0:20:01.520 The reasons loud. 0:20:02.040 --> 0:20:05.880 The reason it's consistent is because the enemy knows he's 0:20:05.920 --> 0:20:10.160 on your territory. He's threatening you, hoping you'll shrink back, 0:20:10.720 --> 0:20:13.360 believe the lies and settle for mediocrity. 0:20:14.000 --> 0:20:17.120 Why don't you start ignoring the roars and go. 0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:20.639 After what God put in your heart. See, the enemy 0:20:20.840 --> 0:20:26.200 is a bully. Bullies are loud. Bullies are intimidating. Bullies 0:20:26.200 --> 0:20:29.080 will try to threaten you, to control you and keep 0:20:29.119 --> 0:20:32.680 you down. My father told her about this bully when 0:20:32.680 --> 0:20:35.800 he was in the third grade. This bully was bigger 0:20:35.840 --> 0:20:40.000 than everyone, always throwing his weight around, being tough, mean, 0:20:40.280 --> 0:20:44.000 mistreating people. One day they were on the playground at school. 0:20:44.600 --> 0:20:47.399 This bully had a piece of paper he was writing 0:20:47.440 --> 0:20:50.200 down names on it. He had a couple dozen people 0:20:50.240 --> 0:20:50.840 written down. 0:20:51.440 --> 0:20:54.679 This one student. He was a very small boy. They 0:20:54.720 --> 0:20:55.600 were in the same. 0:20:55.440 --> 0:20:59.480 Grade, but he was little wiry, didn't weigh much, but 0:20:59.520 --> 0:21:00.760 he would a tiger. 0:21:01.119 --> 0:21:04.040 He had no fear. He asked the bully what he 0:21:04.119 --> 0:21:04.520 was doing. 0:21:04.960 --> 0:21:08.000 The bully said, I'm making a list of all the 0:21:08.080 --> 0:21:11.800 people that I can whoop. That little boy looked at him, 0:21:12.119 --> 0:21:15.560 kind of perplexed, a little concerned. In a few seconds, 0:21:15.640 --> 0:21:19.040 he said, let me see that list. He took the list, 0:21:19.200 --> 0:21:21.119 went down it and saw his name on it. 0:21:21.440 --> 0:21:22.960 He was so bent out of shape. 0:21:23.119 --> 0:21:25.800 He put his shoulders back, got up in the bully's 0:21:25.840 --> 0:21:28.960 face and said, you have my name on here. You 0:21:29.119 --> 0:21:31.840 know you can't whoop me. How dare you put my 0:21:31.960 --> 0:21:34.840 name on it? The bully shrunk back and said, oh, 0:21:34.920 --> 0:21:38.800 I'll take your name off. You have to stand up 0:21:38.800 --> 0:21:42.240 to a bully. You have to stand up to your enemy. 0:21:43.240 --> 0:21:47.720 Your threats don't FaZe me. Your intimidation doesn't move me. 0:21:48.240 --> 0:21:51.120 I know who I am, and I know whose I am. 0:21:51.800 --> 0:21:54.800 You may have a loud roar. You may seem big, 0:21:55.040 --> 0:21:58.040 but I know me and God or a majority, what 0:21:58.160 --> 0:22:00.879 he is destined for my life will come to pass. 0:22:01.880 --> 0:22:04.560 Don't be intimidated by bully that. 0:22:04.600 --> 0:22:06.560 Has no power over you. 0:22:06.640 --> 0:22:11.560 Ignore the roar, quit believing the threats, living worried, letting 0:22:11.600 --> 0:22:13.320 all the negative play in your mind. 0:22:13.920 --> 0:22:15.480 I know it's loud, but. 0:22:15.400 --> 0:22:17.920 The way you turn it down is by playing what 0:22:18.000 --> 0:22:21.480 God says about you. When the enemy roars, you'll never 0:22:21.520 --> 0:22:24.960 get any good breaks. You'll never rise any higher. Father, 0:22:25.400 --> 0:22:28.680 you said the path of the righteous, My path gets 0:22:28.680 --> 0:22:31.880 brighter and brighter. Thank you that my greatest victories are 0:22:31.920 --> 0:22:34.920 still in front of me. Well, you'll never break the addiction. 0:22:35.400 --> 0:22:38.520 You've had it too long. Tell the enemy take my 0:22:38.680 --> 0:22:42.399 name off your list. You can't defeat me, you can't 0:22:42.440 --> 0:22:46.359 limit my destiny. You can roar, you can threaten, you 0:22:46.440 --> 0:22:49.919 can be loud, but that doesn't intimidate me. I know 0:22:50.000 --> 0:22:53.639 a secret. You're all bark and no bite. I am free, 0:22:54.040 --> 0:22:57.320 I am whole. I will become who I was created 0:22:57.320 --> 0:23:01.320 to be. I was in Africa one time visiting my 0:23:01.359 --> 0:23:04.600 brother Paul, and we went on a safarian saw all 0:23:04.600 --> 0:23:08.119 these wild animals. The guide was telling us what they 0:23:08.160 --> 0:23:11.240 had learned about the animals. He said, if you're ever 0:23:11.359 --> 0:23:14.960 approached by a lion, never to turn your back, but 0:23:15.080 --> 0:23:18.320 to stand your ground. The instinct will be to turn 0:23:18.480 --> 0:23:21.800 and run, but lions can run up to fifty miles 0:23:21.840 --> 0:23:25.600 an hour. He said, if you run, you'll just die tired. 0:23:27.200 --> 0:23:30.359 A great thought, right. He explained that even if the 0:23:30.440 --> 0:23:33.920 lion is a couple hundred yards away, charging towards you, 0:23:34.359 --> 0:23:37.280 the best thing you can do is stand your ground 0:23:37.560 --> 0:23:40.440 and keep looking the lion in the eye. He said 0:23:40.480 --> 0:23:46.280 something fascinating. Ninety percent of charges are mock charges. The 0:23:46.280 --> 0:23:50.240 lion is seeing what you're going to do. If you run, 0:23:50.480 --> 0:23:51.879 they're going to have a state dinner. 0:23:52.440 --> 0:23:53.600 If you stand your. 0:23:53.520 --> 0:23:55.840 Ground, they're going to back off. It's going to be 0:23:56.000 --> 0:23:59.800 a mock charge. It's not a coincidence that are in 0:23:59.840 --> 0:24:01.919 a me is called a roaring lion. 0:24:02.600 --> 0:24:05.080 He roars to see what you're going to do. 0:24:05.880 --> 0:24:09.199 Are you going to run, be intimidated, give up on 0:24:09.240 --> 0:24:12.840 your dreams, turn your back on what God's promised you. 0:24:13.080 --> 0:24:15.920 Then he can defeat you. But if you'll stand. 0:24:15.640 --> 0:24:20.280 Your ground like Hezekiyah, like my mother, and say I'm 0:24:20.320 --> 0:24:23.840 not moved by these threats, not letting this fear, this 0:24:23.960 --> 0:24:28.720 intimidation cause me to shrink back, live worried, then you'll 0:24:28.760 --> 0:24:31.800 find it was a mock charge. It was a lot 0:24:31.840 --> 0:24:35.000 of bark, but there was no bite. And see, I've 0:24:35.040 --> 0:24:38.720 learned the enemy will never quit roaring. I've seen God 0:24:38.760 --> 0:24:40.640 take me places that I've never dreamed. 0:24:40.800 --> 0:24:41.560 It's open up. 0:24:41.480 --> 0:24:45.920 Big doors, defeated great enemies. You would think he'd say, okay, Joel, 0:24:46.080 --> 0:24:49.240 he's not gonna listen. God's been good to him. But 0:24:49.359 --> 0:24:52.199 even now I still hear the roar. You've made it 0:24:52.240 --> 0:24:54.200 this far but you can't keep this up. 0:24:54.600 --> 0:24:57.720 You've seen your best days. The opposition is too much. 0:24:58.359 --> 0:25:01.840 The roar still comes, but I've trained myself to not 0:25:01.960 --> 0:25:05.520 pay any attention to it. My attitude is, if someone's 0:25:05.520 --> 0:25:08.600 saying something, do I hear some noise. You can get 0:25:08.640 --> 0:25:10.600 to the point where you don't give it the time 0:25:10.640 --> 0:25:14.679 of day. My sister Lisa used to live in an 0:25:14.720 --> 0:25:18.560 apartment by train track, just a couple hundred feet away. 0:25:19.080 --> 0:25:21.679 At night, the train would come by and shape the 0:25:21.680 --> 0:25:22.320 whole place. 0:25:22.800 --> 0:25:23.480 You could feel the. 0:25:23.520 --> 0:25:26.879 Rumble of the cars going by, the roar of the engine. 0:25:27.040 --> 0:25:30.240 She would wake up every time, but after a couple of. 0:25:30.200 --> 0:25:33.600 Months she started getting used to it. There's something in 0:25:33.640 --> 0:25:34.400 the brain. 0:25:34.240 --> 0:25:39.320 Called a reticular activating system that can tune out certain 0:25:39.359 --> 0:25:42.440 things that are routine. She got to the point where 0:25:42.440 --> 0:25:45.680 the train never woke her up at night. The train 0:25:45.840 --> 0:25:49.400 was just as loud, just as powerful, but it never 0:25:49.480 --> 0:25:52.439 affected her. It can be the same way with the 0:25:52.600 --> 0:25:57.879 enemy's roar. They will come Threats of intimidation, Thoughts of fear, 0:25:58.400 --> 0:26:00.920 you're not going to get well, you'll never get out 0:26:00.960 --> 0:26:04.680 of debt, What if your child gets off course, Ruors 0:26:04.720 --> 0:26:08.240 of doubt, ruars of worry. But if you'll just keep 0:26:08.359 --> 0:26:13.000 ignoring them, not giving them credibility, keeping your mind on 0:26:13.040 --> 0:26:18.000 the promises, positive, hopeful, knowing that God's in control, knowing 0:26:18.000 --> 0:26:20.679 that he's ordering your steps, You're going to get to 0:26:20.720 --> 0:26:24.480 the point where you don't notice it anymore. Yes, it's 0:26:24.520 --> 0:26:28.080 still there, but it's not a big deal. Those thoughts come, 0:26:28.280 --> 0:26:32.760 but it doesn't affect you now. Sometimes the roar is subtle. 0:26:33.520 --> 0:26:36.800 It's not loud and strong. It's just a whisper of doubt, 0:26:37.560 --> 0:26:40.640 just enough to make you think, maybe it won't work out, 0:26:41.240 --> 0:26:44.679 Maybe it wasn't meant to be. In the Book of Genesis, 0:26:44.920 --> 0:26:47.040 Adam and Eve were in the garden of Eden. 0:26:47.600 --> 0:26:49.720 God told them that they could eat any of the. 0:26:49.680 --> 0:26:52.640 Fruit except the fruit from the tree of the knowledge 0:26:52.760 --> 0:26:53.879 of good and evil. 0:26:54.280 --> 0:26:57.280 If they ate that fruit, they would surely die. 0:26:57.359 --> 0:27:01.040 The serpent came to Eve and set in read really, 0:27:01.800 --> 0:27:05.560 did God really say you can't eat that fruit? This time, 0:27:05.640 --> 0:27:08.920 the roar wasn't loud, it wasn't overwhelming. 0:27:09.080 --> 0:27:13.200 It was just a question, really, a whisper of doubt. 0:27:13.920 --> 0:27:16.360 When God puts the promise in your heart that you're 0:27:16.400 --> 0:27:19.280 going to get well, don't be surprised if you hear 0:27:19.320 --> 0:27:22.639 the whisper, You really think so? Did you hear the 0:27:22.640 --> 0:27:23.480 medical report? 0:27:24.000 --> 0:27:25.119 You really think you're going to. 0:27:25.160 --> 0:27:28.480 Have a good year during the pandemic, You really think 0:27:28.600 --> 0:27:31.000 you're going to get that scholarship? Do you know how 0:27:31.000 --> 0:27:35.760 many other students there are be aware of these subtle roars. 0:27:35.960 --> 0:27:38.280 Just hints of doubt. He's hoping that. 0:27:38.320 --> 0:27:41.919 It will grow and get bigger to where you defeat yourself. 0:27:42.480 --> 0:27:46.119 He knows if he roared real loud, you would recognize 0:27:46.119 --> 0:27:49.280 what he was doing. These whispers of doubt can be 0:27:49.440 --> 0:27:50.320 just as harmful. 0:27:50.960 --> 0:27:54.200 The scripture tells us to be aware of his schemes, 0:27:54.560 --> 0:27:59.800 to be knowledgeable of his strategies. Recognize this roaring loud 0:27:59.880 --> 0:28:05.880 or small, is not the truth. It's trying to create doubt, fear, confusion, 0:28:06.119 --> 0:28:09.399 so you'll miss who you were created to be. My 0:28:09.560 --> 0:28:13.399 question is how are you handling the roar comes to 0:28:13.440 --> 0:28:17.600 all of us? Are you letting these negative thoughts discourage you, 0:28:17.640 --> 0:28:20.920 intimidate you, convince you that it's not going to work out. 0:28:21.400 --> 0:28:24.200 Your child's not going to get better. You can't accomplish 0:28:24.200 --> 0:28:25.000 that dream. 0:28:25.320 --> 0:28:29.200 The reason he's roaring is you're close to your promised land. 0:28:29.720 --> 0:28:33.200 You're about to step into a new level of your destiny. Now, 0:28:33.240 --> 0:28:36.560 don't let the enemy bully you. Tell him to take 0:28:36.640 --> 0:28:40.240 your name off his list. Stand up, and you'll discover 0:28:40.600 --> 0:28:43.920 it was a mark charge. What he's roaring about is 0:28:44.000 --> 0:28:47.800 not the truth. If you'll start ignoring the roar, I 0:28:47.880 --> 0:28:52.400 believe and declare like Hezekiah, God's about to defeat enemies 0:28:52.440 --> 0:28:55.040 for you.
