Bobby Chandler: Authentic Church | Bobby Chandler - Believe the Impossible (Part 1) | February 25, 2026
- She. even
- 00:00:00.333 --> 00:00:03.631
- While you wait, it requires faith to wait, right?
- 00:00:03.631 --> 00:00:07.601
- And a lot of times when we hear the word wait,
- 00:00:07.601 --> 00:00:09.203
- We think,
- 00:00:09.203 --> 00:00:10.171
- Okay, i'm just going to sit down and let god do
- 00:00:10.171 --> 00:00:11.405
- Whatever he wants to do and he can tell me when to move.
- 00:00:11.405 --> 00:00:13.441
- No, he's telling you to move right now.
- 00:00:13.441 --> 00:00:14.875
- I want you to think about waiting.
- 00:00:14.875 --> 00:00:16.210
- Like waiting tables.
- 00:00:16.210 --> 00:00:18.879
- You're serving,
- 00:00:18.879 --> 00:00:20.648
- You're prepping, you're cooking.
- 00:00:20.648 --> 00:00:23.751
- You're making sure everything is in order and ready.
- 00:00:23.751 --> 00:00:26.554
- You're waiting
- 00:00:26.554 --> 00:00:29.023
- For one day god is going to do something different.
- 00:00:29.023 --> 00:00:31.859
- And guys, today we start a brand new series
- 00:00:31.859 --> 00:00:35.096
- Titled believe the impossible.
- 00:00:35.096 --> 00:00:38.032
- Now i say brand new.
- 00:00:38.032 --> 00:00:39.633
- Every year we do this series, but it's always different.
- 00:00:39.633 --> 00:00:43.637
- God is always showing us something new
- 00:00:43.637 --> 00:00:45.973
- And something powerful
- 00:00:45.973 --> 00:00:47.741
- About our church and about what he's going to do in your life.
- 00:00:47.741 --> 00:00:50.878
- And so this series,
- 00:00:50.878 --> 00:00:52.580
- I want to teach you what it looks like to move by faith,
- 00:00:52.580 --> 00:00:56.984
- To believe that god is bigger than the problems
- 00:00:56.984 --> 00:00:59.553
- That you face, but the trials that are in your life.
- 00:00:59.553 --> 00:01:02.790
- Okay, but what's
- 00:01:02.790 --> 00:01:04.058
- Also exciting about this series is that i get to share with you
- 00:01:04.058 --> 00:01:07.795
- The future of authentic church,
- 00:01:07.795 --> 00:01:10.898
- Because the bible is very clear where there is no vision.
- 00:01:12.032 --> 00:01:14.869
- People perish, okay?
- 00:01:14.869 --> 00:01:17.404
- They don't know where they're going.
- 00:01:17.404 --> 00:01:18.506
- There's nothing to hope for.
- 00:01:18.506 --> 00:01:19.707
- And so i believe that god is giving us a lot to hope for.
- 00:01:19.707 --> 00:01:23.344
- We're going to talk about
- 00:01:23.344 --> 00:01:24.578
- The new building on the land that we have fully purchased,
- 00:01:24.578 --> 00:01:27.348
- Close to 23 acres of land that we're going to build on.
- 00:01:28.482 --> 00:01:31.218
- It's time to build a god called us to build.
- 00:01:31.218 --> 00:01:33.220
- We're going to show you what that looks like,
- 00:01:33.220 --> 00:01:35.189
- How much it's going to cost us,
- 00:01:35.189 --> 00:01:37.091
- And what we're going to do in the in between.
- 00:01:37.091 --> 00:01:40.794
- Because as you can see,
- 00:01:41.295 --> 00:01:42.463
- We're getting pretty full in this place.
- 00:01:42.463 --> 00:01:44.665
- Pray over the leadership team.
- 00:01:44.665 --> 00:01:46.200
- We have exhausted ourselves.
- 00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:48.269
- I'll be honest with you.
- 00:01:48.269 --> 00:01:49.203
- Some days it feels like hitting your head
- 00:01:49.203 --> 00:01:50.738
- Up against the wall because everything costs money.
- 00:01:50.738 --> 00:01:53.908
- It's also really hard
- 00:01:54.408 --> 00:01:55.509
- To find the spaces that we need without having to do.
- 00:01:55.509 --> 00:01:58.579
- To be honest with you, about a half $1 million
- 00:01:58.579 --> 00:02:00.981
- In renovations just to be able to do
- 00:02:00.981 --> 00:02:03.184
- Church in another set up in another place.
- 00:02:03.184 --> 00:02:05.486
- And so god has given us some ideas.
- 00:02:05.486 --> 00:02:07.621
- We're going to share those ideas with you.
- 00:02:07.621 --> 00:02:09.456
- You all should have a book that says believe the impossible.
- 00:02:09.456 --> 00:02:12.259
- So first time doing something like this,
- 00:02:12.259 --> 00:02:14.228
- It actually shows you
- 00:02:14.228 --> 00:02:15.262
- A little glimpse of the future building as well,
- 00:02:15.262 --> 00:02:16.830
- And some of the things to be praying over.
- 00:02:16.830 --> 00:02:19.333
- Okay.
- 00:02:19.333 --> 00:02:20.434
- And so it's a really exciting, really exciting time.
- 00:02:20.434 --> 00:02:23.070
- And so i want to ask you this question.
- 00:02:23.070 --> 00:02:24.838
- Do you believe that god can do the impossible in your life and
- 00:02:24.838 --> 00:02:30.077
- With whatever you're going through right now,
- 00:02:31.011 --> 00:02:32.780
- Whatever problems are in your life, whatever trial
- 00:02:32.780 --> 00:02:35.015
- That you're facing, do you believe that god can do
- 00:02:35.015 --> 00:02:37.351
- The impossible?
- 00:02:37.351 --> 00:02:38.452
- I want to share some encouragement with you today.
- 00:02:38.452 --> 00:02:40.321
- If you're struggling, though,
- 00:02:40.321 --> 00:02:41.188
- With that, if it feels like, you know,
- 00:02:41.188 --> 00:02:43.157
- I just don't know if it's going to turn out good for my life.
- 00:02:43.157 --> 00:02:46.193
- One of my favorite verses is in genesis chapter 18, verse 14,
- 00:02:46.193 --> 00:02:51.165
- And actually have this written down
- 00:02:51.165 --> 00:02:52.967
- On my whiteboard in my, my office,
- 00:02:52.967 --> 00:02:56.003
- Because i like to remind myself of this truth.
- 00:02:56.003 --> 00:02:58.572
- When life gets hard,
- 00:02:58.572 --> 00:03:00.507
- Or when trials become very difficult for the church.
- 00:03:00.507 --> 00:03:03.944
- And genesis chapter 18,
- 00:03:03.944 --> 00:03:05.246
- Verse 14, it's very short, but it's powerful.
- 00:03:05.246 --> 00:03:08.282
- And so it states, is anything
- 00:03:08.282 --> 00:03:11.051
- Too hard for the lord?
- 00:03:11.051 --> 00:03:13.887
- There, right there.
- 00:03:13.887 --> 00:03:14.922
- I just i just want to show you that right there.
- 00:03:14.922 --> 00:03:16.890
- It's anything too hard for the lord.
- 00:03:16.890 --> 00:03:20.327
- The amplified version would state it like
- 00:03:20.327 --> 00:03:22.096
- This is anything too hard or too wonderful
- 00:03:22.096 --> 00:03:25.232
- For the lord to bring in your life?
- 00:03:25.232 --> 00:03:28.335
- That verse alone.
- 00:03:28.335 --> 00:03:29.370
- I have written it down in my office,
- 00:03:29.370 --> 00:03:31.205
- And i stare at it almost every day.
- 00:03:31.205 --> 00:03:34.008
- When i think about where this church is going,
- 00:03:34.008 --> 00:03:36.510
- When i think about what god is doing in your life,
- 00:03:36.510 --> 00:03:38.712
- I have to remind myself it's anything too hard for the lord.
- 00:03:38.712 --> 00:03:43.217
- And that's what it means to believe god for the impossible.
- 00:03:43.217 --> 00:03:46.253
- But what i love about this
- 00:03:46.253 --> 00:03:47.755
- Passage of scripture is the context
- 00:03:47.755 --> 00:03:49.323
- Behind this passage that i just read in
- 00:03:49.323 --> 00:03:52.126
- That god is actually speaking to a man named abraham.
- 00:03:52.126 --> 00:03:55.229
- Okay?
- 00:03:55.462 --> 00:03:56.397
- And and abraham at this point is 99 years
- 00:03:56.397 --> 00:03:59.633
- Old, his wife is 89.
- 00:03:59.633 --> 00:04:02.770
- And god is speaking to them about the promise
- 00:04:02.770 --> 00:04:05.773
- That he spoke to them 24 years ago.
- 00:04:05.773 --> 00:04:08.509
- At this point in their life, okay, 24 years ago.
- 00:04:08.509 --> 00:04:13.514
- And now it feels like to them, this promise from god
- 00:04:13.514 --> 00:04:17.618
- Is impossible. it's not going to happen.
- 00:04:17.618 --> 00:04:19.853
- So i want you to think about, like this 24 years of praying,
- 00:04:19.853 --> 00:04:23.824
- 24 years
- 00:04:24.091 --> 00:04:25.726
- Of of moving by faith, 24 years to get to a point
- 00:04:25.726 --> 00:04:30.564
- Where you're thinking, okay, god, this is just comical now,
- 00:04:30.564 --> 00:04:33.967
- Because what do they want more than anything else?
- 00:04:33.967 --> 00:04:36.270
- A child,
- 00:04:36.270 --> 00:04:38.572
- They wanted a child.
- 00:04:38.572 --> 00:04:39.440
- And i'm very sensitive to that subject
- 00:04:39.440 --> 00:04:42.643
- Because i know that there are
- 00:04:42.643 --> 00:04:43.811
- A lot of people who watch this church and even come here
- 00:04:43.811 --> 00:04:46.980
- That had the same desire,
- 00:04:47.548 --> 00:04:50.084
- And sometimes it feels like if god is not giving you
- 00:04:50.084 --> 00:04:52.586
- The thing that you want,
- 00:04:52.586 --> 00:04:54.588
- It feels like he's distant from you.
- 00:04:54.588 --> 00:04:56.256
- And that's not true.
- 00:04:56.256 --> 00:04:57.925
- God is still working out things
- 00:04:57.925 --> 00:05:00.594
- That you can't see behind the scenes.
- 00:05:00.594 --> 00:05:03.230
- But i just want you to understand, okay?
- 00:05:03.230 --> 00:05:04.798
- We look at this verse and we love it.
- 00:05:04.798 --> 00:05:06.233
- Is anything too hard for the lord to do?
- 00:05:06.233 --> 00:05:08.602
- Is anything too wonderful for the lord to do?
- 00:05:08.602 --> 00:05:10.604
- Yet they have been waiting 24 years for a promise
- 00:05:10.604 --> 00:05:14.375
- That god mentioned to them long ago.
- 00:05:14.375 --> 00:05:17.544
- In fact,
- 00:05:17.544 --> 00:05:18.712
- What i love about the story is that sarah even laughed
- 00:05:18.712 --> 00:05:21.181
- At the idea that god could do it.
- 00:05:21.181 --> 00:05:23.250
- Have you been there before?
- 00:05:23.851 --> 00:05:25.953
- Promise was spoken over your life and you're like,
- 00:05:25.953 --> 00:05:29.189
- You must not be talking to me because you don't know my life.
- 00:05:29.189 --> 00:05:32.459
- You don't know where i come from.
- 00:05:32.459 --> 00:05:34.661
- I don't think it's going to happen.
- 00:05:34.661 --> 00:05:35.729
- Genesis 1811 and 12.
- 00:05:35.729 --> 00:05:38.365
- Abraham and sarah were both very old by this time.
- 00:05:38.365 --> 00:05:42.970
- Sarah was long past the age of having children, so she laughed.
- 00:05:42.970 --> 00:05:48.475
- Now i think this is important to notice.
- 00:05:48.475 --> 00:05:50.577
- She laughed silently to herself.
- 00:05:50.577 --> 00:05:53.914
- She didn't even laugh out loud.
- 00:05:53.914 --> 00:05:56.583
- I don't think anybody else heard her, but god heard her.
- 00:05:56.583 --> 00:06:00.020
- See, god can hear your heart
- 00:06:00.020 --> 00:06:02.122
- When you're laughing at his promise
- 00:06:02.122 --> 00:06:05.259
- Dug in here on the inside of you.
- 00:06:05.259 --> 00:06:07.227
- When you're doubting what he's going to do in your life.
- 00:06:07.227 --> 00:06:09.363
- And so she laughed silently to herself.
- 00:06:09.363 --> 00:06:12.099
- And then she said, though, how could a worn out
- 00:06:12.099 --> 00:06:14.268
- Woman like me enjoy such a pleasure?
- 00:06:14.268 --> 00:06:18.238
- Now this kind of makes me laugh
- 00:06:18.238 --> 00:06:19.239
- Because you also put abraham on blast, she said.
- 00:06:19.239 --> 00:06:22.009
- Especially when my master, my husband, is so old.
- 00:06:22.009 --> 00:06:24.244
- Like this man is so old right now.
- 00:06:24.244 --> 00:06:27.481
- Like, how can this be?
- 00:06:27.481 --> 00:06:28.849
- All right, let's continue reading.
- 00:06:28.849 --> 00:06:30.451
- Now then the lord said to abraham, listen to this.
- 00:06:30.451 --> 00:06:33.887
- Why did sarah laugh?
- 00:06:33.887 --> 00:06:38.025
- I'm thinking
- 00:06:38.358 --> 00:06:39.359
- Abraham's like, oh no, like, what did she do?
- 00:06:39.359 --> 00:06:42.062
- Where is he at?
- 00:06:42.062 --> 00:06:43.263
- Is she in the tent laughing at this promise? you know.
- 00:06:43.263 --> 00:06:46.200
- And the lord says, why does she say,
- 00:06:46.200 --> 00:06:49.169
- Can an old woman like me have a baby?
- 00:06:49.169 --> 00:06:52.139
- Then we get to the verse.
- 00:06:52.139 --> 00:06:54.241
- Is anything too hard for the lord?
- 00:06:54.241 --> 00:06:58.445
- And i will return. amen.
- 00:06:58.979 --> 00:07:00.781
- There we go.
- 00:07:00.781 --> 00:07:01.748
- And i will return about this time next year.
- 00:07:01.748 --> 00:07:04.284
- Meaning
- 00:07:04.284 --> 00:07:05.519
- The promise would take 25 years to take place in their life.
- 00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:09.790
- 25 years.
- 00:07:10.090 --> 00:07:12.259
- And he stated that sarah will have a son,
- 00:07:12.259 --> 00:07:14.595
- And at the age of 19, she has a child.
- 00:07:14.595 --> 00:07:19.800
- Abraham is 100 years old when isaac is born.
- 00:07:19.800 --> 00:07:24.137
- I mean, it's like a two for one deal.
- 00:07:24.137 --> 00:07:26.406
- They're buying diapers for their baby
- 00:07:26.406 --> 00:07:28.809
- To buy and diapers for themselves.
- 00:07:28.809 --> 00:07:30.544
- I mean, when you're 100, let's be honest.
- 00:07:30.544 --> 00:07:32.813
- Like, all right, let's just let's just make this happen.
- 00:07:32.813 --> 00:07:35.382
- Let's make it work for everybody.
- 00:07:35.382 --> 00:07:37.084
- I love you all. okay?
- 00:07:37.084 --> 00:07:38.685
- That is not a job in any way,
- 00:07:38.685 --> 00:07:41.054
- But we're all thinking it, right?
- 00:07:41.788 --> 00:07:43.090
- Okay, so i realized this.
- 00:07:43.090 --> 00:07:46.793
- I was praying over this.
- 00:07:46.793 --> 00:07:47.928
- I looked at this verse. i looked at it on my whiteboard.
- 00:07:47.928 --> 00:07:49.730
- I'm like, okay, okay.
- 00:07:49.730 --> 00:07:50.998
- I got to remind the people, was anything too hard for the lord?
- 00:07:50.998 --> 00:07:54.001
- Because i feel like this is where a lot of us are today.
- 00:07:54.001 --> 00:07:57.204
- We believe god, or we say that we believe god
- 00:07:57.204 --> 00:08:00.173
- For the impossible, but at the same time,
- 00:08:00.173 --> 00:08:02.609
- There are things and promises of god that we're laughing at,
- 00:08:02.609 --> 00:08:06.513
- And maybe we're laughing silently,
- 00:08:07.281 --> 00:08:09.750
- Like maybe nobody even knows
- 00:08:09.750 --> 00:08:11.818
- That you're doubting everything that the lord is going to do
- 00:08:11.818 --> 00:08:14.421
- In your life.
- 00:08:14.421 --> 00:08:15.455
- And so on the outside, you're saying god can do it,
- 00:08:15.455 --> 00:08:18.191
- But on the inside, maybe you're thinking, just not for me.
- 00:08:18.191 --> 00:08:21.328
- Maybe that's where you are as well.
- 00:08:22.129 --> 00:08:23.630
- It's very easy to say
- 00:08:23.630 --> 00:08:24.865
- God could do it for them, and god could save
- 00:08:24.865 --> 00:08:26.900
- Their marriage and god can intervene.
- 00:08:26.900 --> 00:08:29.570
- But he he's not going to do it for me.
- 00:08:29.570 --> 00:08:33.106
- And that was the conviction that i felt
- 00:08:33.974 --> 00:08:36.209
- As i was praying over the church.
- 00:08:36.209 --> 00:08:37.411
- As i was praying over this message.
- 00:08:37.411 --> 00:08:38.712
- Today, i want to teach you
- 00:08:38.712 --> 00:08:40.514
- What it looks like to believe god for the impossible.
- 00:08:40.514 --> 00:08:43.650
- I want to teach you what faith is.
- 00:08:43.650 --> 00:08:46.920
- It's going to be very practical today,
- 00:08:46.920 --> 00:08:48.522
- But i think this is a great start.
- 00:08:48.522 --> 00:08:50.090
- What is faith?
- 00:08:50.090 --> 00:08:51.658
- What does it look like?
- 00:08:51.658 --> 00:08:53.126
- What challenges will faith bring into your life?
- 00:08:53.126 --> 00:08:56.830
- But why is it important to walk by faith?
- 00:08:56.830 --> 00:09:00.167
- Here it is, hebrews 11 verse six.
- 00:09:00.167 --> 00:09:03.570
- It is impossible to please god without faith.
- 00:09:03.570 --> 00:09:07.441
- Note that right there.
- 00:09:07.908 --> 00:09:09.009
- Write it down.
- 00:09:09.009 --> 00:09:10.077
- It is impossible to please the lord without faith.
- 00:09:10.077 --> 00:09:14.648
- It requires faith to believe that jesus died on the cross
- 00:09:14.648 --> 00:09:18.719
- And rose from the grave.
- 00:09:18.719 --> 00:09:20.854
- It requires faith to believe that god can intervene
- 00:09:20.854 --> 00:09:24.458
- In your situation.
- 00:09:24.458 --> 00:09:25.792
- It requires faith to keep moving when you want to sit down
- 00:09:25.792 --> 00:09:29.363
- And give up. amen.
- 00:09:29.363 --> 00:09:30.831
- And so you need this strength that doesn't come from you.
- 00:09:30.831 --> 00:09:34.434
- It comes from above and again,
- 00:09:35.035 --> 00:09:36.536
- This is what it means to be courageous.
- 00:09:36.536 --> 00:09:37.838
- We just talked about that over the last few weeks.
- 00:09:37.838 --> 00:09:41.375
- And so the title of today's message is this faith
- 00:09:41.375 --> 00:09:44.478
- For the impossible.
- 00:09:44.478 --> 00:09:47.280
- We gotta we gotta start with believing
- 00:09:47.280 --> 00:09:49.983
- And then moving with faith
- 00:09:49.983 --> 00:09:52.319
- To believe that god can do the impossible.
- 00:09:52.319 --> 00:09:55.222
- Let me also point this out, because i think sometimes,
- 00:09:55.222 --> 00:09:58.659
- And here's what i struggle to
- 00:09:59.292 --> 00:10:00.460
- Is what is faithful and what is irresponsible.
- 00:10:00.460 --> 00:10:04.297
- I don't know if you've ever struggled with that.
- 00:10:04.297 --> 00:10:06.433
- Like, okay, god,
- 00:10:06.433 --> 00:10:07.467
- I feel like you're telling me to do something,
- 00:10:07.467 --> 00:10:09.102
- But on the surface it looks irresponsible.
- 00:10:09.102 --> 00:10:11.571
- Let me state it like this and make it clear to you.
- 00:10:11.571 --> 00:10:13.740
- Faith is not pretending.
- 00:10:13.740 --> 00:10:15.208
- You don't see the problem.
- 00:10:15.208 --> 00:10:17.444
- Okay, so so faith is not saying, oh,
- 00:10:17.444 --> 00:10:20.147
- I'm just naive and i don't see the problem.
- 00:10:20.147 --> 00:10:22.516
- Like, no, no, no, i see the problem.
- 00:10:22.516 --> 00:10:25.018
- But i'm choosing to believe
- 00:10:25.018 --> 00:10:27.988
- God is bigger than the problem i'm facing,
- 00:10:27.988 --> 00:10:30.824
- That god is going to intervene. why?
- 00:10:30.824 --> 00:10:33.226
- Because i know my father.
- 00:10:33.226 --> 00:10:35.829
- I know jesus, i hear his voice.
- 00:10:35.829 --> 00:10:38.398
- Okay.
- 00:10:38.398 --> 00:10:39.066
- That's what the bible states,
- 00:10:39.066 --> 00:10:40.200
- Is that the holy spirit lives inside of you,
- 00:10:40.200 --> 00:10:42.402
- And he will speak to you and he will give you clarity.
- 00:10:42.402 --> 00:10:45.906
- So let's break it down today.
- 00:10:45.906 --> 00:10:47.941
- How does faith work?
- 00:10:47.941 --> 00:10:50.310
- Point number one it says faith is born
- 00:10:50.310 --> 00:10:53.680
- The moment you believe what god spoke.
- 00:10:53.680 --> 00:10:57.517
- Faith
- 00:10:57.751 --> 00:10:58.919
- Is born in your heart, in your life.
- 00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:01.588
- The moment you believe in the word of god.
- 00:11:01.588 --> 00:11:06.093
- The moment that god speaks to you.
- 00:11:06.093 --> 00:11:07.594
- The moment that you get into the scripture
- 00:11:07.594 --> 00:11:09.463
- And you have to see what the lord has spoken
- 00:11:09.463 --> 00:11:11.565
- And write it down and say, okay, god, this doesn't
- 00:11:11.565 --> 00:11:14.234
- Make sense in my life, but i still believe it.
- 00:11:14.234 --> 00:11:16.236
- And so let's start here.
- 00:11:16.236 --> 00:11:17.337
- Okay, the truth is, you will never step in
- 00:11:17.337 --> 00:11:20.407
- To a promise of god if you don't believe that promise exist.
- 00:11:20.407 --> 00:11:26.213
- I'm telling you,
- 00:11:26.613 --> 00:11:27.681
- If you hear that clearly, it will set you free.
- 00:11:27.681 --> 00:11:30.751
- You will never step in to a promise of god
- 00:11:30.751 --> 00:11:33.553
- If you do not believe that promise exist. why?
- 00:11:33.553 --> 00:11:36.523
- Because you will never move forward.
- 00:11:36.523 --> 00:11:38.959
- Listen to this hebrews chapter four, verse two.
- 00:11:38.959 --> 00:11:42.095
- For we have heard
- 00:11:42.095 --> 00:11:43.163
- The good news of deliverance, just as they did.
- 00:11:43.163 --> 00:11:46.833
- Who is they talking about?
- 00:11:46.833 --> 00:11:48.635
- The israelites that should have entered into the promised land?
- 00:11:48.635 --> 00:11:53.206
- Okay, so they heard the good news.
- 00:11:53.206 --> 00:11:54.808
- They heard the good news
- 00:11:54.808 --> 00:11:55.876
- About the promise, yet they did not listen to this.
- 00:11:55.876 --> 00:11:58.779
- They didn't join their faith with the word.
- 00:11:58.779 --> 00:12:01.882
- They didn't believe what god said.
- 00:12:02.616 --> 00:12:05.018
- Instead, what they heard didn't affect them deeply. why?
- 00:12:05.018 --> 00:12:08.789
- Because they doubted.
- 00:12:08.789 --> 00:12:10.924
- They did not believe the word of god.
- 00:12:10.924 --> 00:12:13.760
- So guess what?
- 00:12:13.760 --> 00:12:14.628
- They never stepped into the promise.
- 00:12:14.628 --> 00:12:16.797
- There were two men
- 00:12:16.797 --> 00:12:17.998
- That believed that promise, joshua and caleb, right there.
- 00:12:17.998 --> 00:12:21.067
- The only two men that spoke by faith.
- 00:12:21.067 --> 00:12:22.936
- They're the only two men that entered into the promise.
- 00:12:22.936 --> 00:12:26.072
- You know the hard thing about a promise from god?
- 00:12:26.072 --> 00:12:28.608
- You may have a lot of people with you in the beginning,
- 00:12:28.608 --> 00:12:30.544
- But not everybody's going to step foot
- 00:12:30.544 --> 00:12:31.978
- With you in the promise in the end.
- 00:12:31.978 --> 00:12:35.849
- You just need to know that you need to prepare for that.
- 00:12:35.849 --> 00:12:39.186
- Some people will step away.
- 00:12:39.186 --> 00:12:41.254
- Some people will become aggravated with you.
- 00:12:41.254 --> 00:12:43.023
- Some people will become aggravated with god.
- 00:12:43.023 --> 00:12:44.591
- Some people will not be moving by faith.
- 00:12:44.591 --> 00:12:47.394
- Don't allow others to pull you into the wilderness
- 00:12:47.394 --> 00:12:49.930
- For 40 years,
- 00:12:49.930 --> 00:12:51.565
- Okay?
- 00:12:51.798 --> 00:12:52.666
- Don't allow others doubt and disbelief
- 00:12:52.666 --> 00:12:54.868
- To pull you away from what god has for you.
- 00:12:54.868 --> 00:12:58.672
- You must believe it exists.
- 00:12:58.672 --> 00:13:00.540
- Let's break this down even more.
- 00:13:00.540 --> 00:13:02.576
- Okay?
- 00:13:02.576 --> 00:13:03.210
- You can't walk in healing
- 00:13:03.210 --> 00:13:05.545
- If you don't believe that healing can come from god.
- 00:13:05.545 --> 00:13:08.748
- Let me also say it like this.
- 00:13:09.382 --> 00:13:10.650
- You can't see your marriage restored.
- 00:13:10.650 --> 00:13:14.387
- If you've already decided in your mind, it's over.
- 00:13:14.387 --> 00:13:17.724
- Yeah.
- 00:13:17.958 --> 00:13:18.959
- I talked to a lot of men
- 00:13:18.959 --> 00:13:21.261
- Who struggle with some addictions.
- 00:13:21.261 --> 00:13:23.730
- And i tell them this all the time, okay?
- 00:13:23.730 --> 00:13:25.599
- You can't be set free from these addictions in your life.
- 00:13:25.599 --> 00:13:28.768
- But the only way to be set
- 00:13:28.768 --> 00:13:30.070
- Free is to believe you can get there. yes.
- 00:13:30.070 --> 00:13:33.240
- In order to walk away
- 00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:34.541
- From these addictions in your life,
- 00:13:34.541 --> 00:13:35.809
- You must believe you can be set free because the world
- 00:13:35.809 --> 00:13:38.612
- Is lying to you, telling you you'll never get away from this.
- 00:13:38.612 --> 00:13:41.448
- And eventually, if you start to believe
- 00:13:41.448 --> 00:13:42.883
- Those lies, will start saying, this is just who i am.
- 00:13:42.883 --> 00:13:47.420
- God can change you.
- 00:13:47.888 --> 00:13:49.389
- Amen.
- 00:13:49.389 --> 00:13:50.824
- God can change everything about you.
- 00:13:50.824 --> 00:13:53.927
- You walked in here the way you used to be.
- 00:13:53.927 --> 00:13:55.962
- But you left. changed.
- 00:13:55.962 --> 00:13:58.431
- That's what jesus does in our life.
- 00:13:58.431 --> 00:14:01.134
- But the truth is,
- 00:14:01.134 --> 00:14:02.235
- You will never live in what you don't believe in.
- 00:14:02.235 --> 00:14:05.438
- You will never live in what you don't believe in.
- 00:14:05.438 --> 00:14:09.709
- What is god reminding you to believe today?
- 00:14:09.709 --> 00:14:12.579
- Write it down.
- 00:14:12.579 --> 00:14:14.447
- That has been a battle
- 00:14:14.447 --> 00:14:16.349
- In your mind, in your soul.
- 00:14:16.349 --> 00:14:19.185
- Something you know is from the lord.
- 00:14:19.185 --> 00:14:21.121
- But it feels like it's attacked every single day.
- 00:14:21.121 --> 00:14:25.392
- So faith is important again.
- 00:14:25.392 --> 00:14:28.061
- How do we get it?
- 00:14:28.061 --> 00:14:29.629
- We hear the word of the lord.
- 00:14:29.629 --> 00:14:30.897
- Romans chapter ten, verse 17.
- 00:14:30.897 --> 00:14:32.532
- So faith comes from hearing
- 00:14:32.532 --> 00:14:36.136
- That is hearing the good news about christ.
- 00:14:36.136 --> 00:14:40.540
- I started thinking about this as well
- 00:14:40.540 --> 00:14:42.375
- Because have you ever noticed,
- 00:14:42.375 --> 00:14:44.244
- Or maybe you've seen in your own life
- 00:14:44.244 --> 00:14:46.012
- That two people can be in the same service?
- 00:14:46.012 --> 00:14:48.982
- I don't need the background music, but thank you.
- 00:14:48.982 --> 00:14:51.384
- Two people can be in the same service, right?
- 00:14:52.252 --> 00:14:54.988
- Two people can hear the exact same word, but leave the church
- 00:14:54.988 --> 00:15:00.727
- With completely different outcomes.
- 00:15:00.727 --> 00:15:03.663
- Why is that?
- 00:15:03.663 --> 00:15:04.631
- Because one person heard it,
- 00:15:04.631 --> 00:15:07.367
- But another person believed it.
- 00:15:07.367 --> 00:15:10.003
- One person heard it, but another person believed it.
- 00:15:10.003 --> 00:15:12.839
- And so if you have your bibles out,
- 00:15:12.839 --> 00:15:14.240
- We're talking about abraham.
- 00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:15.642
- But i also want to take a another story
- 00:15:15.642 --> 00:15:18.478
- Into consideration and talk about mary.
- 00:15:18.478 --> 00:15:20.814
- Okay. luke chapter one.
- 00:15:20.814 --> 00:15:21.982
- If you have your bibles, you can turn there.
- 00:15:21.982 --> 00:15:23.917
- Luke chapter one,
- 00:15:23.917 --> 00:15:25.018
- Because we just talked about abraham and sarah.
- 00:15:25.018 --> 00:15:27.120
- What were they praying for a child?
- 00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:29.389
- They waited 25 years for this promise to fully
- 00:15:29.389 --> 00:15:31.825
- Come into their life.
- 00:15:31.825 --> 00:15:32.759
- And now we're going to see another story
- 00:15:32.759 --> 00:15:34.527
- About a miraculous child.
- 00:15:34.527 --> 00:15:35.562
- But this child is is the son of god, jesus christ.
- 00:15:35.562 --> 00:15:38.631
- Okay.
- 00:15:38.865 --> 00:15:39.399
- So in luke chapter one,
- 00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:41.534
- The angel gabriel appears to mary. now,
- 00:15:41.534 --> 00:15:44.838
- I just want to point this out even before i start reading.
- 00:15:44.838 --> 00:15:47.440
- She did not understand how any of this would happen,
- 00:15:47.440 --> 00:15:51.578
- But from the very beginning
- 00:15:52.178 --> 00:15:53.913
- She chose to believe what god was saying.
- 00:15:53.913 --> 00:15:57.951
- You have a choice.
- 00:15:58.385 --> 00:16:00.720
- Either you can believe your doubt
- 00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:02.789
- Or you can believe what god is saying.
- 00:16:02.789 --> 00:16:05.025
- So luke chapter one, verse 28 through 31, gabriel
- 00:16:05.025 --> 00:16:09.629
- Appeared to her and said, greetings, favored woman.
- 00:16:09.629 --> 00:16:13.299
- That's how i heard in my head, i'm sorry.
- 00:16:13.299 --> 00:16:15.535
- Greetings favored woman.
- 00:16:15.535 --> 00:16:17.170
- The lord is with you.
- 00:16:17.170 --> 00:16:19.906
- All right.
- 00:16:19.906 --> 00:16:20.907
- I'm already dissecting this favored woman.
- 00:16:20.907 --> 00:16:24.978
- How many times have you prayed
- 00:16:25.578 --> 00:16:27.814
- For favor in your life?
- 00:16:27.814 --> 00:16:30.850
- How many prosperity gospel messages
- 00:16:30.850 --> 00:16:33.353
- Have you heard that have lied to you
- 00:16:33.353 --> 00:16:35.188
- And told you that favor
- 00:16:35.188 --> 00:16:36.423
- Means your life will be perfect and you'll get the mansion.
- 00:16:36.423 --> 00:16:38.558
- You'll get the house, you get the car.
- 00:16:38.558 --> 00:16:39.692
- You'll get everything that you want.
- 00:16:39.692 --> 00:16:40.593
- You get the relationship.
- 00:16:40.593 --> 00:16:41.528
- Everything's going to be perfect. listen.
- 00:16:41.528 --> 00:16:42.929
- Favor comes with heaviness.
- 00:16:42.929 --> 00:16:45.632
- Let me just help you out here.
- 00:16:46.232 --> 00:16:47.500
- Favor from god actually comes with weight.
- 00:16:47.500 --> 00:16:51.137
- Favor from god.
- 00:16:51.137 --> 00:16:52.205
- Does it mean that your life is going to get easier?
- 00:16:52.205 --> 00:16:54.874
- It just means that some of this.
- 00:16:54.874 --> 00:16:56.409
- The assignment just got bigger,
- 00:16:56.409 --> 00:16:59.546
- So it changes everything, right?
- 00:17:00.180 --> 00:17:02.082
- Okay.
- 00:17:02.082 --> 00:17:03.049
- When you understand that favor from the lord
- 00:17:03.049 --> 00:17:04.217
- Doesn't mean that your life is going to be easier now.
- 00:17:04.217 --> 00:17:05.885
- It just means, okay,
- 00:17:05.885 --> 00:17:07.053
- The assignment that god is handing me is actually bigger.
- 00:17:07.053 --> 00:17:11.758
- And it's harder.
- 00:17:12.158 --> 00:17:12.826
- In fact,
- 00:17:12.826 --> 00:17:14.060
- Let me let me also say this sometimes if i could be honest,
- 00:17:14.060 --> 00:17:16.963
- Favor doesn't always feel like you're living in favor.
- 00:17:16.963 --> 00:17:20.233
- Well, i'm not being attacked.
- 00:17:20.867 --> 00:17:22.335
- Why are these trials so hard?
- 00:17:22.335 --> 00:17:24.070
- Because you got favor on you.
- 00:17:24.070 --> 00:17:26.106
- You're a target now to the enemy.
- 00:17:26.106 --> 00:17:27.841
- But don't worry. god is with you.
- 00:17:27.841 --> 00:17:29.976
- All right, let's keep reading.
- 00:17:30.577 --> 00:17:31.544
- So, the angel of the lord says.
- 00:17:31.544 --> 00:17:33.513
- Greetings, favored woman.
- 00:17:33.513 --> 00:17:34.681
- Now, this kind of makes me laugh as well.
- 00:17:34.681 --> 00:17:36.049
- Confused and disturbed.
- 00:17:36.049 --> 00:17:39.285
- This is how mary felt.
- 00:17:39.285 --> 00:17:40.320
- Confused and disturbed.
- 00:17:40.320 --> 00:17:42.088
- Mary tried to think what the angel could mean,
- 00:17:42.088 --> 00:17:44.491
- And again he says, don't be afraid.
- 00:17:44.491 --> 00:17:46.259
- The angel told her,
- 00:17:46.259 --> 00:17:47.460
- You have found favor with god, but listen, you will conceive.
- 00:17:47.460 --> 00:17:51.865
- Give birth to a son and you will name him jesus.
- 00:17:51.865 --> 00:17:56.636
- Verse 34 to 38 mary asked the angel,
- 00:17:56.636 --> 00:18:00.673
- But how can this happen?
- 00:18:00.673 --> 00:18:02.442
- Because i am a virgin.
- 00:18:02.442 --> 00:18:05.178
- Now i love that she asked a question.
- 00:18:05.178 --> 00:18:08.882
- Did you know you can ask god questions?
- 00:18:08.882 --> 00:18:12.318
- It doesn't mean that you're not
- 00:18:12.318 --> 00:18:13.419
- Believing in his promise when you're asking a question.
- 00:18:13.419 --> 00:18:16.723
- It's actually good
- 00:18:16.723 --> 00:18:17.824
- Because you're asking the father for clarity.
- 00:18:17.824 --> 00:18:20.860
- You want to steward it well.
- 00:18:20.860 --> 00:18:22.128
- Ask questions.
- 00:18:22.128 --> 00:18:23.596
- All right.
- 00:18:23.596 --> 00:18:24.564
- God, i believe you're placing this in my life,
- 00:18:24.564 --> 00:18:26.499
- But i don't really understand how it's going to happen.
- 00:18:26.499 --> 00:18:29.369
- How am i going to get there?
- 00:18:29.369 --> 00:18:30.436
- How is any of this going to take place in my life?
- 00:18:30.436 --> 00:18:32.639
- And some of the answers god will give you is just supernatural.
- 00:18:32.639 --> 00:18:36.943
- The answer that the angel gives mary.
- 00:18:37.744 --> 00:18:40.613
- It's not something you can just see naturally.
- 00:18:40.613 --> 00:18:42.949
- It's a supernatural answer.
- 00:18:42.949 --> 00:18:45.418
- The angel replied, the holy spirit will come upon you.
- 00:18:45.418 --> 00:18:49.422
- And now listen to this, and the power of the most high
- 00:18:50.456 --> 00:18:53.726
- Will overshadow you.
- 00:18:54.194 --> 00:18:57.230
- I looked at the text right
- 00:18:57.230 --> 00:18:58.631
- There, and i started to think of what it means to overshadow,
- 00:18:58.631 --> 00:19:02.602
- But the power of the holy spirit.
- 00:19:02.602 --> 00:19:05.104
- And there's a few examples of the bible.
- 00:19:05.104 --> 00:19:07.140
- We're not going to have this on the screen,
- 00:19:07.140 --> 00:19:08.274
- But in exodus chapter 4034 through 35,
- 00:19:08.274 --> 00:19:11.878
- It talks about what what people would call the shekinah glory.
- 00:19:11.878 --> 00:19:15.348
- It's the glory of god's
- 00:19:15.348 --> 00:19:17.083
- Presence, the holy spirit that came and filled the temple.
- 00:19:17.083 --> 00:19:21.354
- And the glory was so strong people had to leave the temple.
- 00:19:21.354 --> 00:19:25.825
- It was so powerful.
- 00:19:26.292 --> 00:19:28.361
- God's presence overshadows
- 00:19:28.361 --> 00:19:31.297
- The temple out of the book of exodus.
- 00:19:31.297 --> 00:19:34.867
- And so now we're seeing that the same holy holy spirit
- 00:19:34.867 --> 00:19:39.038
- That filled the temple is now going to overshadow mary.
- 00:19:39.038 --> 00:19:44.177
- The same presence of god
- 00:19:44.711 --> 00:19:47.513
- Would cover mary.
- 00:19:47.513 --> 00:19:48.781
- So why?
- 00:19:48.781 --> 00:19:49.716
- So that the baby could be born?
- 00:19:49.716 --> 00:19:52.852
- The baby to be born will be holy.
- 00:19:52.852 --> 00:19:55.521
- He will be called the son of god.
- 00:19:55.521 --> 00:19:57.223
- What's more, is that your relative?
- 00:19:57.223 --> 00:19:59.559
- Now listen to this.
- 00:19:59.559 --> 00:20:00.660
- Elizabeth has become pregnant also in her old age,
- 00:20:00.660 --> 00:20:04.230
- People used to laugh at the idea that she could have a child.
- 00:20:04.230 --> 00:20:07.267
- They used to say that she was barren.
- 00:20:08.067 --> 00:20:10.503
- But guess what?
- 00:20:10.503 --> 00:20:11.571
- She is conceived a son and now is in her sixth month.
- 00:20:11.571 --> 00:20:16.943
- Like, can you almost see the angel smiling
- 00:20:16.943 --> 00:20:20.546
- Like waking a little bit like gabriel
- 00:20:20.546 --> 00:20:22.248
- Is just looking at you like they thought of going to happen.
- 00:20:22.248 --> 00:20:25.618
- But i see the presence of god.
- 00:20:26.219 --> 00:20:28.688
- You move him by faith.
- 00:20:28.688 --> 00:20:30.957
- But this angel, angel gabriel,
- 00:20:30.957 --> 00:20:32.492
- Has seen the presence of the holy god.
- 00:20:32.492 --> 00:20:34.427
- Now listen to what he says right here.
- 00:20:34.427 --> 00:20:35.728
- For the word of god will never fail.
- 00:20:35.728 --> 00:20:40.833
- But god
- 00:20:41.067 --> 00:20:41.901
- Speaks in your life will take place.
- 00:20:41.901 --> 00:20:45.071
- It's just up to you to believe it or not.
- 00:20:45.071 --> 00:20:47.340
- And you can step foot into the promise
- 00:20:47.340 --> 00:20:48.908
- So you can walk away from it.
- 00:20:48.908 --> 00:20:50.009
- But god's word
- 00:20:50.009 --> 00:20:51.210
- Is still going to be fulfilled whether you're there or not.
- 00:20:51.210 --> 00:20:54.047
- That is the truth.
- 00:20:54.047 --> 00:20:55.481
- Hey, thank you for watching this sermon.
- 00:20:55.481 --> 00:20:57.350
- I don't want to interrupt you for too long,
- 00:20:57.350 --> 00:20:59.085
- But i just got to share with you guys that right now
- 00:20:59.085 --> 00:21:01.321
- We are in the believe the impossible series,
- 00:21:01.321 --> 00:21:04.123
- And that's exactly what we're doing.
- 00:21:04.123 --> 00:21:05.692
- We're believing god for the impossible.
- 00:21:05.692 --> 00:21:07.760
- If you haven't heard, our church is growing
- 00:21:07.760 --> 00:21:10.663
- And we're reaching people all over the world.
- 00:21:10.663 --> 00:21:13.333
- And we just purchased 23 acres, and now it's time to build
- 00:21:13.333 --> 00:21:17.337
- What god has called us to build.
- 00:21:17.337 --> 00:21:18.971
- So let me encourage you today if this ministry has impacted
- 00:21:18.971 --> 00:21:21.841
- Your life,
- 00:21:21.841 --> 00:21:23.076
- Pray about it and ask god if you would like to partner with us.
- 00:21:23.076 --> 00:21:26.913
- And you can give online or you can scan the qr code.
- 00:21:26.913 --> 00:21:29.916
- Today it's really easy and become a partner
- 00:21:29.916 --> 00:21:32.952
- In investing into the kingdom of god.
- 00:21:32.952 --> 00:21:36.055
- Thank you so much for listening.
- 00:21:36.055 --> 00:21:37.457
- Hope you enjoyed the rest of the sermon,
- 00:21:37.457 --> 00:21:39.726
- For the word of god will never fail.
- 00:21:40.493 --> 00:21:42.328
- Mary responded, i want you to hear her response right here.
- 00:21:42.328 --> 00:21:46.199
- I am the lord's servant.
- 00:21:46.199 --> 00:21:49.302
- The first thing she does is identify
- 00:21:49.302 --> 00:21:53.406
- As the lord's servant.
- 00:21:53.406 --> 00:21:56.109
- That's who i am.
- 00:21:56.109 --> 00:21:57.210
- I live for you, god.
- 00:21:57.210 --> 00:21:59.245
- May everything that you have said about me come true.
- 00:21:59.245 --> 00:22:02.648
- And when i highlight something.
- 00:22:02.648 --> 00:22:04.784
- Then the angel left her.
- 00:22:04.784 --> 00:22:09.589
- The powerful experience.
- 00:22:07.320 --> 00:22:12.792
- Think about it like this seems to disappear
- 00:22:12.792 --> 00:22:16.295
- In real life. begins.
- 00:22:16.295 --> 00:22:18.564
- How do you hold on to the faith?
- 00:22:18.564 --> 00:22:19.999
- So what can we learn about faith from mary from this story?
- 00:22:19.999 --> 00:22:24.537
- The first thing is this mary does not lead
- 00:22:24.537 --> 00:22:27.907
- With her feelings of fear.
- 00:22:27.907 --> 00:22:31.110
- Okay,
- 00:22:31.110 --> 00:22:32.912
- Keep your emotions in check again.
- 00:22:32.912 --> 00:22:35.481
- Gaga has created us to feel, but it's not always a good thing
- 00:22:35.481 --> 00:22:39.285
- To allow your emotions to lead you.
- 00:22:39.285 --> 00:22:41.788
- Okay.
- 00:22:41.788 --> 00:22:42.955
- How was she able to overcome her feelings?
- 00:22:42.955 --> 00:22:45.158
- By the very first thing that she said.
- 00:22:45.158 --> 00:22:47.160
- I am the lord's servant.
- 00:22:47.693 --> 00:22:49.595
- I know who i am in the lord because when the angel
- 00:22:49.595 --> 00:22:53.132
- Is speaking, i promise you she knows the cost.
- 00:22:53.132 --> 00:22:56.502
- She's thinking about it all.
- 00:22:57.103 --> 00:22:58.404
- House is going to happen.
- 00:22:58.404 --> 00:22:59.772
- Not only could it happen supernaturally,
- 00:22:59.772 --> 00:23:02.008
- But what if it does happen and it did.
- 00:23:02.008 --> 00:23:04.777
- Then she also knows that she could lose the love of her life.
- 00:23:04.777 --> 00:23:09.348
- Would you be battling that?
- 00:23:09.949 --> 00:23:12.852
- That's the problem
- 00:23:12.852 --> 00:23:13.920
- We have when we worship relationships over jesus.
- 00:23:13.920 --> 00:23:16.889
- Then sometimes we actually
- 00:23:17.457 --> 00:23:18.391
- Walk away for the promise
- 00:23:18.391 --> 00:23:19.492
- Because we're worshiping a relationship
- 00:23:19.492 --> 00:23:21.060
- And not a relationship with jesus at all.
- 00:23:21.060 --> 00:23:23.996
- She understood she had a love of her life.
- 00:23:23.996 --> 00:23:25.932
- His name was joseph, right?
- 00:23:25.932 --> 00:23:28.201
- They were already engaged,
- 00:23:28.201 --> 00:23:30.670
- Which meant in the jewish culture, legally,
- 00:23:30.670 --> 00:23:32.839
- They would have to get a divorce.
- 00:23:32.839 --> 00:23:34.340
- Just in the engagement.
- 00:23:34.340 --> 00:23:36.209
- She knew that was coming.
- 00:23:36.209 --> 00:23:37.410
- She knew that nobody,
- 00:23:37.410 --> 00:23:38.644
- Nobody would believe that she was pregnant by the holy spirit.
- 00:23:38.644 --> 00:23:42.949
- And to make it worse, the truth is she could be stoned to death
- 00:23:42.949 --> 00:23:47.520
- Because she
- 00:23:47.854 --> 00:23:48.788
- Was pregnant and may not have a husband.
- 00:23:48.788 --> 00:23:51.657
- She can lose it all.
- 00:23:51.657 --> 00:23:53.793
- And that's where a lot of us would allow the spirit of fear
- 00:23:53.793 --> 00:23:57.630
- To speak.
- 00:23:57.630 --> 00:23:58.231
- That's where a lot of us
- 00:23:58.231 --> 00:23:59.232
- Would allow our feelings to get the best of us.
- 00:23:59.232 --> 00:24:01.801
- So she declares right away.
- 00:24:01.801 --> 00:24:03.636
- And the lord's servant,
- 00:24:03.636 --> 00:24:06.105
- Let me just remind myself who i am
- 00:24:06.105 --> 00:24:09.242
- And why god has placed this favor on my life.
- 00:24:09.242 --> 00:24:12.979
- I am the lord's servant.
- 00:24:12.979 --> 00:24:15.648
- My reputation could be ruined with people i don't care
- 00:24:15.648 --> 00:24:19.285
- Because she cared about her reputation with god.
- 00:24:20.253 --> 00:24:23.222
- This is why god found favor in her life.
- 00:24:23.222 --> 00:24:25.558
- This is why the god.
- 00:24:25.558 --> 00:24:26.459
- This is why god chose to use her.
- 00:24:26.459 --> 00:24:29.061
- Her answer reveals who she is, not what she knows
- 00:24:29.061 --> 00:24:32.832
- About the future.
- 00:24:32.832 --> 00:24:34.534
- The crazy thing about this story is that we know how it ends.
- 00:24:35.701 --> 00:24:38.838
- She had no idea.
- 00:24:38.838 --> 00:24:40.740
- She had no idea what she was facing
- 00:24:40.740 --> 00:24:43.409
- Or how it would work out.
- 00:24:43.409 --> 00:24:44.610
- So she reminded herself, i am the lord's servant.
- 00:24:44.610 --> 00:24:49.148
- All right, guys, that's all the time we have for today.
- 00:24:49.148 --> 00:24:51.551
- But i pray that today's message bless your life.
- 00:24:51.551 --> 00:24:55.321
- There is a reason you heard this word today.
- 00:24:55.321 --> 00:24:57.823
- It's not by mistake.
- 00:24:57.823 --> 00:24:59.292
- You're here for a reason and god has a plan for you.
- 00:24:59.292 --> 00:25:03.195

- For authentic church.
- 00:25:54.614 --> 00:25:55.848
- And we saw
- 00:25:55.848 --> 00:25:57.016
- People come out from everywhere, from all over the nation
- 00:25:57.016 --> 00:26:00.853
- And even outside of the country
- 00:26:00.853 --> 00:26:02.555
- To experience what god is doing here.
- 00:26:02.555 --> 00:26:04.824

- For me.
- 00:26:34.453 --> 00:26:46.032
- And the
- 00:26:46.265 --> 00:26:47.066
- Reason i even bring it up tonight
- 00:26:47.066 --> 00:26:50.069
- Is because when it comes to you knowing jesus
- 00:26:50.069 --> 00:26:53.806
- The man, the gospel message is all about
- 00:26:53.806 --> 00:26:57.777
- Your understanding of the message about the man
- 00:26:57.777 --> 00:27:02.014
- Who informed your methods of getting to know the man. who?
- 00:27:02.014 --> 00:27:35.147
- There's this job doesn't work out for me.
- 00:27:36.015 --> 00:27:38.484
- What if i move my life by faith and it all just
- 00:27:38.484 --> 00:27:42.388
- Crumbles to the ground? what if it works?
- 00:27:42.388 --> 00:27:45.091
- What if god shows up and changes your life forever?
- 00:27:45.091 --> 00:27:48.060
- But i would rather move by faith.
- 00:27:48.060 --> 00:27:49.829
- It even failed and failed and fail and know that i follow god.
- 00:27:49.829 --> 00:27:53.699
- And i ended up exactly.
- 00:27:53.699 --> 00:27:54.934
- Where i needed to be.
- 00:27:54.934 --> 00:28:26.465
- You know what?
- 00:28:26.799 --> 00:28:27.233
