I like to start with 0:02:13.919 --> 0:02:17.079 something funny, and I heard about this church service one 0:02:17.120 --> 0:02:21.160 Sunday morning. Everything was going great until a lightning bolt 0:02:21.240 --> 0:02:25.560 hit the building. After the smoke cleared, Satan himself was 0:02:25.600 --> 0:02:29.240 standing behind the podium. People panicked and ran out as 0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:33.239 fast as they could. Everyone that is, except one woman. 0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:36.600 She sat on the front row as calmly as could be. 0:02:37.240 --> 0:02:40.519 Satan was appalled. He said, lady, do you know who 0:02:40.520 --> 0:02:43.320 I am? She said, I sure do. He said, aren't 0:02:43.360 --> 0:02:45.520 you afraid of me? She said not in the least bit. 0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:48.200 He said why not? She said, why should I be. 0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:53.280 I've been married to your brother for thirty years. All right, 0:02:53.919 --> 0:02:58.720 hold up your bibles. Don't say amen women either. This 0:02:58.800 --> 0:03:01.359 is my Bible. I am what it says I am. 0:03:01.840 --> 0:03:04.280 I have what it says I have. I can do 0:03:04.360 --> 0:03:06.960 what it says I can do. Today I will be 0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:10.960 taught the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind 0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:14.360 is alert, my heart is receptive. I will never be 0:03:14.440 --> 0:03:17.760 the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you. 0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:19.120 I want to. 0:03:19.120 --> 0:03:22.600 Talk to you today about how your second wind is 0:03:22.639 --> 0:03:25.960 on its way. There are times in life that we 0:03:26.080 --> 0:03:29.680 all get tired, tired of trying to make a business, grow, 0:03:30.360 --> 0:03:33.480 tired of dealing with the sickness, tired of raising a 0:03:33.520 --> 0:03:37.320 difficult child, tired of living lonely, waiting to meet the 0:03:37.400 --> 0:03:40.840 right person. We can even be doing what we love, 0:03:41.520 --> 0:03:45.040 living in the house of our dreams, raising great children, 0:03:45.280 --> 0:03:48.240 working at a good job. But if we're not careful, 0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:52.440 we can lose our passion and allow weariness to set in. 0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:56.840 I watched a documentary about a war, and these soldiers 0:03:56.880 --> 0:04:00.640 had been overseas for many years, engaged in conflict, and 0:04:00.720 --> 0:04:04.000 this four star general was testifying in front of Congress. 0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:08.080 The senator asked how the troops were doing. He said, Sir, 0:04:08.640 --> 0:04:12.880 our troops are tired. We never expected the war to 0:04:12.920 --> 0:04:17.719 go on this long. Now they're dealing with battle fatigue. 0:04:17.920 --> 0:04:21.320 What do you do when the battle has lasted longer. 0:04:21.000 --> 0:04:25.000 Than you thought. You've prayed, you've believed, you've. 0:04:24.760 --> 0:04:28.200 Done what you're supposed to, but you're still waiting to 0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:31.640 meet the right person. You're still looking for the right job, 0:04:32.120 --> 0:04:34.760 You're still believing for the marriage to turn around, or 0:04:34.800 --> 0:04:37.839 you're still praying that that child will get back on track. 0:04:38.800 --> 0:04:42.400 The word weary means to lose the sense of pleasure, 0:04:42.960 --> 0:04:46.640 to not feel the enjoyment that you once felt. When 0:04:46.680 --> 0:04:51.680 those soldiers are first shipped off overseas, they're excited, they're 0:04:51.720 --> 0:04:54.440 fired up. They can't wait to make a difference. But 0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:58.240 when the battle goes on and on, that's when fatigue 0:04:58.279 --> 0:05:02.400 can set in. The problem is, if you allow yourself 0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:06.880 to become weary, you'll be tempted to quit, to quit growing, 0:05:07.520 --> 0:05:10.960 to quit standing. For that way, we'd child to quit believing, 0:05:11.000 --> 0:05:14.400 to get healthy at home, to quit pursuing your goals 0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:15.080 and dreams. 0:05:15.920 --> 0:05:17.640 I had a lady till last week. 0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:20.720 How she was in town at the cancer Center M 0:05:20.800 --> 0:05:24.400 D Anderson for a checkup. She had taken six months 0:05:24.600 --> 0:05:27.760 worth of chemotherapy. She's hoping she was done. Of course, 0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:31.080 she found out that the chemo did do some good, 0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:33.599 but they told her she was going to need to 0:05:33.640 --> 0:05:37.359 take the same treatment for another six months. She was 0:05:37.400 --> 0:05:41.520 so disappointed, she said, Joel, I'm tired. I don't think 0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:43.400 I can do this for six more months. 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:45.480 On the way to our. 0:05:45.400 --> 0:05:50.120 Victory, we will always face the weariness test where we're 0:05:50.160 --> 0:05:54.400 tempted to get discouraged and give up. The test never 0:05:54.480 --> 0:05:57.960 comes when we're fresh, never comes when we first start out. 0:05:58.160 --> 0:06:01.400 It always comes when we're tired. That's when we're the 0:06:01.440 --> 0:06:06.760 most vulnerable. The Apostle Paul said Galatians six'. Nine don't 0:06:06.880 --> 0:06:11.840 grow weary in doing what's, right for in due, season 0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:16.760 you shall reap if you faint. Not two words are 0:06:16.760 --> 0:06:18.799 the key to this whole. Passage faint. 0:06:18.960 --> 0:06:23.120 Not in other, words if you don't give, up if. 0:06:22.920 --> 0:06:26.320 You shake off the, weariness if you put on a 0:06:26.360 --> 0:06:29.680 new attitude knowing That god is still in, control if 0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:32.320 you dig your heels in and Say i've come too 0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:36.279 far to stop. Now if you faint, not you will 0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:39.719 see the promise come to. Pass instead of complaining about 0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:42.440 how long the battle is, taking we should be, saying 0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:46.320 this too shall. PASS i know it's not, permanent it's only. 0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:51.279 Temporary i'm not camping, Here i'm moving. Forward this is 0:06:51.279 --> 0:06:54.200 what kept the people Of israel out of The Promised. 0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:57.440 Land they were close to their. Victory next door to 0:06:57.480 --> 0:07:01.359 The Promised. Land god already said he would give them the. 0:07:01.440 --> 0:07:03.520 Land all they had to do was go in and 0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:07.240 fight for. It But the problem is they allowed weariness 0:07:07.400 --> 0:07:11.720 to set. In they had gone through the, wilderness overcoming, 0:07:11.800 --> 0:07:16.280 obstacles defeating all kinds of. Enemies now they were. Tired 0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:20.640 moses tried to get them to go, in but weariness 0:07:20.880 --> 0:07:25.600 leads to. Discouragement when you're, discouraged you see the problem 0:07:26.040 --> 0:07:29.200 instead of the. Possibility you talk about the way it 0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:33.600 is instead of the way it can. Become they started, Complaining, 0:07:34.200 --> 0:07:35.520 moses the people are too. 0:07:35.560 --> 0:07:38.280 Big we don't have a. Chance we'll never defeat. 0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:43.600 Them they made a permanent decision based on a temporary. 0:07:43.640 --> 0:07:45.360 Feeling and if. 0:07:45.280 --> 0:07:49.040 You allow yourself to become, weary you lose your, passion your. 0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:53.800 Enthusiasm you too will be tempted to make decisions based 0:07:53.840 --> 0:07:54.440 on how you. 0:07:54.400 --> 0:07:56.440 Feel rather than based on what you. 0:07:56.560 --> 0:08:00.320 Know when you feel that weariness come, on you need 0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:03.600 to start talking to. Yourself, god you said you have 0:08:03.800 --> 0:08:07.160 armed me with strength for every. Battle you, SAID i 0:08:07.200 --> 0:08:11.040 can do all things Through, christ who infuses inner strength into. 0:08:11.080 --> 0:08:14.320 Me you SAID i am more than a conquer a, 0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:15.560 victor not a. 0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:19.720 Victim if you'll talk to yourself the right, way you 0:08:19.920 --> 0:08:23.600 feel the second wind begin to kick. In but too 0:08:23.640 --> 0:08:26.240 often we do like they did and Think, OH i 0:08:26.280 --> 0:08:29.880 can't take this. Anymore i'm so, Tired i'm so run. 0:08:29.960 --> 0:08:30.840 Down it's just too. 0:08:30.920 --> 0:08:34.320 Hard, no the more you talk about how tired you, 0:08:34.400 --> 0:08:36.160 are the more tired you're going to. 0:08:36.240 --> 0:08:38.760 Become you're just adding fuel to the. 0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:42.720 Fire don't talk about the way you, are talk about 0:08:42.800 --> 0:08:44.960 the way you want to.

Small if you never feel like, 0:09:04.400 --> 0:09:05.360 quitting then. 0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:06.400 You need to set some larger. 0:09:06.440 --> 0:09:10.400 Goals when that pressure, comes to get discouraged and to 0:09:10.400 --> 0:09:13.760 think about how you can't take it.

There he convinced four of his 0:23:10.000 --> 0:23:13.640 friends to put him on a stretcher and carry him 0:23:13.680 --> 0:23:17.440 to that. House but when they got, there after this long, 0:23:17.560 --> 0:23:21.800 journey after walking for hours and, hours the house was totally, 0:23:21.880 --> 0:23:26.360 packed completely, full no possible way to get. In it's 0:23:26.440 --> 0:23:29.680 interesting walking down the. Road they didn't have any problem 0:23:30.160 --> 0:23:33.200 leaving their. City everything was. Great getting to the next, 0:23:33.240 --> 0:23:37.560 town no. Difficulty it was when they got close to 0:23:37.600 --> 0:23:39.160 their miracle things got. 0:23:39.240 --> 0:23:41.720 Rough that's when the pressure was. 0:23:41.800 --> 0:23:46.280 Intensified many people would have given up to too. Bad 0:23:46.800 --> 0:23:48.240 we tried our, best didn't work. 0:23:48.280 --> 0:23:49.320 Out not this. 0:23:49.440 --> 0:23:52.920 Man he said to his four, friends, guys you're going 0:23:52.960 --> 0:23:55.480 to need to take me up on the, roof cut 0:23:55.520 --> 0:23:57.560 a hole in the ceiling and let me. 0:23:57.600 --> 0:24:01.040 Down SO i can get To. Jesus these four men are. 0:24:01.160 --> 0:24:05.240 Tired you can imagine the weight of that stretcher on 0:24:05.359 --> 0:24:09.480 their shoulder has left an imprint as they've walked hour after. 0:24:09.640 --> 0:24:13.840 Hour just when they think they've reached their, destination just 0:24:13.920 --> 0:24:16.000 then when they think they can finally sit down and, 0:24:16.080 --> 0:24:20.600 relax they realize the battle is not. Over it's taken 0:24:20.760 --> 0:24:24.560 longer than they, thought it's more difficult than they. Expected 0:24:25.440 --> 0:24:28.080 they could have said to their, friend hey, man we love, 0:24:28.160 --> 0:24:31.480 you we sacrifice to get you, here but we are 0:24:31.560 --> 0:24:33.480 not going to take you up on that. Roof we 0:24:33.520 --> 0:24:37.600 are too. Tired, now these four men understood this. Principle 0:24:37.920 --> 0:24:42.119 if you faint, not you shall.

Doing they 0:25:00.480 --> 0:25:03.760 knew they were close to their. Victory they got him 0:25:03.840 --> 0:25:06.240 up on the, roof let him down through the. Ceiling 0:25:06.960 --> 0:25:11.520 the scripture, says When jesus saw their, faith the men 0:25:11.680 --> 0:25:16.160 was instantly made. Whole when you face great, adversities when 0:25:16.200 --> 0:25:19.720 the pressure has been turned, up you can either Let 0:25:19.760 --> 0:25:23.840 god see your, discouragement or you can Let god see your. 0:25:23.920 --> 0:25:26.000 Faith you can, Say, god it's not. 0:25:26.080 --> 0:25:29.000 FAIR i came all this, WAY i, PRAYED i, BELIEVED 0:25:29.000 --> 0:25:31.320 i did Everything i'm supposed, to but it didn't work. 0:25:31.359 --> 0:25:34.640 Out or you can, Say, GOD i can handle.
