  • About these two men named archie and jack. they had
  • 00:00:31.386 --> 00:00:33.255
  • Archie and jack. they had debated their whole life as
  • 00:00:33.322 --> 00:00:34.890
  • Debated their whole life as to whether jesus was white or
  • 00:00:34.957 --> 00:00:36.725
  • To whether jesus was white or whether he was black. archie
  • 00:00:36.792 --> 00:00:38.927
  • Whether he was black. archie was certain he was white;
  • 00:00:38.994 --> 00:00:40.229
  • Was certain he was white; jack was just as certain he
  • 00:00:40.295 --> 00:00:41.363
  • Jack was just as certain he was black. as fate would have
  • 00:00:41.430 --> 00:00:42.965
  • Was black. as fate would have it, they died on the same
  • 00:00:43.031 --> 00:00:44.066
  • It, they died on the same day, rushed to the pearly
  • 00:00:44.133 --> 00:00:45.567
  • Day, rushed to the pearly gates, and said, “st. peter,
  • 00:00:45.634 --> 00:00:47.002
  • Gates, and said, “st. peter, please tell us, we've been
  • 00:00:47.069 --> 00:00:48.403
  • Please tell us, we've been arguing our whole life, is
  • 00:00:48.470 --> 00:00:49.738
  • Arguing our whole life, is jesus white or is he black?”
  • 00:00:49.805 --> 00:00:52.040
  • Jesus white or is he black?” about that time, jesus
  • 00:00:52.107 --> 00:00:53.242
  • About that time, jesus stepped up and said, “buenos
  • 00:00:53.308 --> 00:00:54.910
  • Stepped up and said, “buenos dias.” (laughter)
  • 00:00:54.977 --> 00:00:58.714
  • Dias.” (laughter) say it like you mean it. this
  • 00:00:58.780 --> 00:01:00.482
  • Say it like you mean it. this is my bible. i am what it
  • 00:01:00.549 --> 00:01:02.451
  • Is my bible. i am what it says i am. i have what it

  • 00:01:16.999 --> 00:01:19.401
  • Jesus' name. god bless you. i want to talk to you today
  • 00:01:19.468 --> 00:01:21.603
  • I want to talk to you today about generational
  • 00:01:21.670 --> 00:01:22.971
  • About generational breakthroughs. some of the
  • 00:01:23.038 --> 00:01:25.040
  • Breakthroughs. some of the things we struggle with,
  • 00:01:25.107 --> 00:01:26.475
  • Things we struggle with, didn't start with us. they
  • 00:01:26.542 --> 00:01:28.377
  • Didn't start with us. they were passed down from those
  • 00:01:28.443 --> 00:01:30.045
  • Were passed down from those that went before us. we don't
  • 00:01:30.112 --> 00:01:32.114
  • That went before us. we don't get to choose our battles. we
  • 00:01:32.181 --> 00:01:34.149
  • Get to choose our battles. we show up and have things to
  • 00:01:34.216 --> 00:01:35.484
  • Show up and have things to deal with. sometimes we
  • 00:01:35.551 --> 00:01:37.252
  • Deal with. sometimes we wonder, “why can't i get
  • 00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:38.654
  • Wonder, “why can't i get ahead? i take one step
  • 00:01:38.720 --> 00:01:40.355
  • Ahead? i take one step forward and two steps
  • 00:01:40.422 --> 00:01:41.657
  • Forward and two steps backwards. why am i drawn to
  • 00:01:41.723 --> 00:01:43.592
  • Backwards. why am i drawn to this bad habit? why can't i
  • 00:01:43.659 --> 00:01:45.227
  • This bad habit? why can't i control my temper? why don't
  • 00:01:45.294 --> 00:01:46.962
  • Control my temper? why don't i trust anyone?” that can be
  • 00:01:47.029 --> 00:01:49.198
  • I trust anyone?” that can be negative baggage in your
  • 00:01:49.264 --> 00:01:50.999
  • Negative baggage in your family line. studies show how
  • 00:01:51.066 --> 00:01:53.802
  • Family line. studies show how depression can be passed
  • 00:01:53.869 --> 00:01:55.404
  • Depression can be passed down, addictions, anger, low
  • 00:01:55.470 --> 00:01:58.006
  • Down, addictions, anger, low self-esteem. i talked to a
  • 00:01:58.073 --> 00:02:00.075
  • Self-esteem. i talked to a gentleman who struggles with
  • 00:02:00.142 --> 00:02:01.443
  • Gentleman who struggles with his self-worth, not feeling
  • 00:02:01.510 --> 00:02:03.478
  • His self-worth, not feeling secure and confident. he told
  • 00:02:03.545 --> 00:02:05.881
  • Secure and confident. he told how his father was raised in
  • 00:02:05.948 --> 00:02:07.616
  • How his father was raised in a negative environment. there
  • 00:02:07.683 --> 00:02:09.418
  • A negative environment. there was neglect and abandonment.
  • 00:02:09.484 --> 00:02:12.054
  • Was neglect and abandonment. people that never nurtured
  • 00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:13.155
  • People that never nurtured him or made him feel
  • 00:02:13.222 --> 00:02:14.323
  • Him or made him feel valuable. now his son has
  • 00:02:14.389 --> 00:02:16.792
  • Valuable. now his son has this same struggle with low
  • 00:02:16.858 --> 00:02:18.360
  • This same struggle with low self-esteem and unworthiness.
  • 00:02:18.427 --> 00:02:21.230
  • Self-esteem and unworthiness. those are spirits being
  • 00:02:21.296 --> 00:02:22.898
  • Those are spirits being passed down.
  • 00:02:22.965 --> 00:02:23.565
  • Passed down. it doesn't seem fair. it
  • 00:02:23.632 --> 00:02:26.001
  • It doesn't seem fair. it didn't have anything to do
  • 00:02:26.068 --> 00:02:27.002
  • Didn't have anything to do with us. we have to reap the
  • 00:02:27.069 --> 00:02:28.971
  • With us. we have to reap the consequences of someone
  • 00:02:29.037 --> 00:02:30.639
  • Consequences of someone else's actions, deal with the
  • 00:02:30.706 --> 00:02:32.608
  • Else's actions, deal with the effects of their bad breaks,
  • 00:02:32.674 --> 00:02:34.476
  • Effects of their bad breaks, or the injustice they
  • 00:02:34.543 --> 00:02:35.510
  • Or the injustice they suffered. god knew there
  • 00:02:35.577 --> 00:02:37.946
  • Suffered. god knew there would be these weaknesses
  • 00:02:38.013 --> 00:02:39.481
  • Would be these weaknesses that you didn't earn. he knew
  • 00:02:39.548 --> 00:02:41.450
  • That you didn't earn. he knew every piece of generational
  • 00:02:41.516 --> 00:02:43.085
  • Every piece of generational baggage that would be passed
  • 00:02:43.151 --> 00:02:44.853
  • Baggage that would be passed down to you. some of them you
  • 00:02:44.920 --> 00:02:47.256
  • Down to you. some of them you can't break on your own.
  • 00:02:47.322 --> 00:02:48.890
  • Can't break on your own. you've tried. you stood
  • 00:02:48.957 --> 00:02:50.392
  • You've tried. you stood strong, but willpower is not
  • 00:02:50.459 --> 00:02:52.694
  • Strong, but willpower is not enough. it wasn't a lack of
  • 00:02:52.761 --> 00:02:54.696
  • Enough. it wasn't a lack of discipline. you weren't
  • 00:02:54.763 --> 00:02:56.031
  • Discipline. you weren't strong enough. this was
  • 00:02:56.098 --> 00:02:57.966
  • Strong enough. this was something you inherited that
  • 00:02:58.033 --> 00:02:59.868
  • Something you inherited that you can't defeat by yourself.
  • 00:02:59.935 --> 00:03:02.371
  • You can't defeat by yourself. the good news is god is a god
  • 00:03:02.437 --> 00:03:04.673
  • The good news is god is a god of justice. one reason jesus
  • 00:03:04.740 --> 00:03:07.309
  • Of justice. one reason jesus came was to take off of you
  • 00:03:07.376 --> 00:03:09.911
  • Came was to take off of you what was unfairly put on you.
  • 00:03:09.978 --> 00:03:12.114
  • What was unfairly put on you. what you can't defeat, he's
  • 00:03:12.180 --> 00:03:14.082
  • What you can't defeat, he's going to defeat for you. what
  • 00:03:14.149 --> 00:03:16.151
  • Going to defeat for you. what you tried and you couldn't
  • 00:03:16.218 --> 00:03:17.286
  • You tried and you couldn't overcome, he's going to cause
  • 00:03:17.352 --> 00:03:19.121
  • Overcome, he's going to cause you to overcome. yes, you may
  • 00:03:19.187 --> 00:03:21.390
  • You to overcome. yes, you may have some generational
  • 00:03:21.456 --> 00:03:22.524
  • Have some generational weaknesses, depression passed
  • 00:03:22.591 --> 00:03:24.826
  • Weaknesses, depression passed down, addictions, divorce,
  • 00:03:24.893 --> 00:03:26.995
  • Down, addictions, divorce, poverty. but this is a new
  • 00:03:27.062 --> 00:03:28.964
  • Poverty. but this is a new day. there's about to be a
  • 00:03:29.031 --> 00:03:30.565
  • Day. there's about to be a generational breakthrough.
  • 00:03:30.632 --> 00:03:32.467
  • Generational breakthrough. generational freedom,
  • 00:03:32.534 --> 00:03:34.269
  • Generational freedom, generational abundance,
  • 00:03:34.336 --> 00:03:35.804
  • Generational abundance, generational joy. things are
  • 00:03:35.871 --> 00:03:38.807
  • Generational joy. things are shifting. chains are
  • 00:03:38.874 --> 00:03:40.375
  • Shifting. chains are breaking. strongholds are
  • 00:03:40.442 --> 00:03:42.177
  • Breaking. strongholds are coming down. anxiety is
  • 00:03:42.244 --> 00:03:44.079
  • Coming down. anxiety is leaving. god is putting an
  • 00:03:44.146 --> 00:03:46.281
  • Leaving. god is putting an end to it, once and for all.
  • 00:03:46.348 --> 00:03:48.717
  • End to it, once and for all. not just for you, but for
  • 00:03:48.784 --> 00:03:50.485
  • Not just for you, but for your children.
  • 00:03:50.552 --> 00:03:51.720
  • Your children. this is what happened with
  • 00:03:51.787 --> 00:03:52.688
  • This is what happened with the israelites. they had been
  • 00:03:52.754 --> 00:03:54.289
  • The israelites. they had been in slavery for four hundred
  • 00:03:54.356 --> 00:03:56.458
  • In slavery for four hundred years. ten generations of
  • 00:03:56.525 --> 00:03:58.360
  • Years. ten generations of defeat, being mistreated,
  • 00:03:58.427 --> 00:04:00.696
  • Defeat, being mistreated, working long hours with no
  • 00:04:00.762 --> 00:04:02.130
  • Working long hours with no pay, given quotas that they
  • 00:04:02.197 --> 00:04:03.999
  • Pay, given quotas that they couldn't meet. they hadn't
  • 00:04:04.066 --> 00:04:05.767
  • Couldn't meet. they hadn't done anything wrong. they
  • 00:04:05.834 --> 00:04:07.436
  • Done anything wrong. they didn't threaten the
  • 00:04:07.502 --> 00:04:08.203
  • Didn't threaten the egyptians. they didn't try to
  • 00:04:08.270 --> 00:04:09.838
  • Egyptians. they didn't try to overtake the land. the
  • 00:04:09.905 --> 00:04:11.840
  • Overtake the land. the pharaoh was afraid they would
  • 00:04:11.907 --> 00:04:13.208
  • Pharaoh was afraid they would multiply and get too
  • 00:04:13.275 --> 00:04:14.443
  • Multiply and get too powerful, so he captured them
  • 00:04:14.509 --> 00:04:16.645
  • Powerful, so he captured them and made them slaves. it
  • 00:04:16.712 --> 00:04:18.847
  • And made them slaves. it was unfair, but the
  • 00:04:18.914 --> 00:04:20.449
  • Was unfair, but the israelites couldn't do
  • 00:04:20.515 --> 00:04:21.316
  • Israelites couldn't do anything about it. the
  • 00:04:21.383 --> 00:04:22.684
  • Anything about it. the egyptians were stronger, had
  • 00:04:22.751 --> 00:04:24.519
  • Egyptians were stronger, had more equipment, more weapons.
  • 00:04:24.586 --> 00:04:25.987
  • More equipment, more weapons. it looked like this was
  • 00:04:26.054 --> 00:04:27.356
  • It looked like this was permanent, that they would
  • 00:04:27.422 --> 00:04:28.657
  • Permanent, that they would never be free. but god said
  • 00:04:28.724 --> 00:04:30.826
  • Never be free. but god said in exodus, “i have seen the
  • 00:04:30.892 --> 00:04:32.994
  • In exodus, “i have seen the affliction of my people, i
  • 00:04:33.061 --> 00:04:35.097
  • Affliction of my people, i have heard their cries, and i
  • 00:04:35.163 --> 00:04:36.965
  • Have heard their cries, and i am coming down to deliver
  • 00:04:37.032 --> 00:04:38.633
  • Am coming down to deliver them.” god was saying,
  • 00:04:38.700 --> 00:04:40.669
  • Them.” god was saying, “enough is enough. this may
  • 00:04:40.736 --> 00:04:43.038
  • “enough is enough. this may have gone on for generations.
  • 00:04:43.105 --> 00:04:45.207
  • Have gone on for generations. you couldn't do anything
  • 00:04:45.273 --> 00:04:46.108
  • You couldn't do anything about it. those forces were
  • 00:04:46.174 --> 00:04:48.076
  • About it. those forces were too strong, but i'm coming
  • 00:04:48.143 --> 00:04:50.278
  • Too strong, but i'm coming down to put a stop to it. i'm
  • 00:04:50.345 --> 00:04:52.647
  • Down to put a stop to it. i'm going to break the chains.
  • 00:04:52.714 --> 00:04:54.449
  • Going to break the chains. i'm going to free you from
  • 00:04:54.516 --> 00:04:55.550
  • I'm going to free you from the addiction. i'm going to
  • 00:04:55.617 --> 00:04:57.119
  • The addiction. i'm going to release you from that
  • 00:04:57.185 --> 00:04:58.120
  • Release you from that depression. i'm going to
  • 00:04:58.186 --> 00:04:59.321
  • Depression. i'm going to thrust you into your purpose.”
  • 00:04:59.388 --> 00:05:01.923
  • Thrust you into your purpose.” that addiction may not have
  • 00:05:01.990 --> 00:05:03.325
  • That addiction may not have started with you. you can
  • 00:05:03.392 --> 00:05:05.193
  • Started with you. you can look back and see it in your
  • 00:05:05.260 --> 00:05:06.628
  • Look back and see it in your family line, but it's going
  • 00:05:06.695 --> 00:05:08.497
  • Family line, but it's going to end with you. god knows
  • 00:05:08.563 --> 00:05:11.266
  • To end with you. god knows what's been unfair. he knows
  • 00:05:11.333 --> 00:05:13.535
  • What's been unfair. he knows the things you're dealing
  • 00:05:13.602 --> 00:05:14.536
  • The things you're dealing with that you didn't have

  • Promote you. the prophet ezekiel said it
  • 00:08:35.070 --> 00:08:36.471
  • The prophet ezekiel said it this way. “the fathers ate
  • 00:08:36.538 --> 00:08:38.707
  • This way. “the fathers ate the sour grapes and their
  • 00:08:38.773 --> 00:08:40.642

  • Edge. as surely as i live, declares the sovereign lord,
  • 00:08:44.946 --> 00:08:46.681
  • Declares the sovereign lord, you will no longer quote
  • 00:08:46.748 --> 00:08:47.882
  • You will no longer quote this.” this was a proverb
  • 00:08:47.949 --> 00:08:50.719
  • This.” this was a proverb they had been living by.
  • 00:08:50.785 --> 00:08:52.587
  • They had been living by. their thinking was, since the
  • 00:08:52.654 --> 00:08:54.389
  • Their thinking was, since the father had problems, the
  • 00:08:54.456 --> 00:08:55.991
  • Father had problems, the children will as well.
  • 00:08:56.057 --> 00:08:57.692
  • Children will as well. nothing we can do about it.
  • 00:08:57.759 --> 00:08:59.361
  • Nothing we can do about it. since the father ate the sour
  • 00:08:59.427 --> 00:09:01.129
  • Since the father ate the sour grapes, since the parents had
  • 00:09:01.196 --> 00:09:03.098
  • Grapes, since the parents had addictions, since the
  • 00:09:03.164 --> 00:09:04.599
  • Addictions, since the grandparents were depressed,
  • 00:09:04.666 --> 00:09:06.534
  • Grandparents were depressed, now the children are going to
  • 00:09:06.601 --> 00:09:07.669
  • Now the children are going to struggle with those same
  • 00:09:07.736 --> 00:09:09.004
  • Struggle with those same things. they just accepted
  • 00:09:09.070 --> 00:09:11.106
  • Things. they just accepted that it would be passed down.
  • 00:09:11.172 --> 00:09:12.974
  • That it would be passed down. then god showed up and said,
  • 00:09:13.041 --> 00:09:15.043
  • Then god showed up and said, “why are you using your
  • 00:09:15.110 --> 00:09:16.311
  • “why are you using your relatives as an excuse? why
  • 00:09:16.378 --> 00:09:18.880
  • Relatives as an excuse? why are you thinking what your
  • 00:09:18.947 --> 00:09:19.948
  • Are you thinking what your parents did, how you were
  • 00:09:20.015 --> 00:09:22.150
  • Parents did, how you were raised, mistakes they made,

  • Is going to hold you back? as long as the sovereign lord is
  • 00:09:26.821 --> 00:09:28.490
  • Long as the sovereign lord is alive you are not bound by
  • 00:09:28.556 --> 00:09:30.892
  • Alive you are not bound by what's been passed down.”
  • 00:09:30.959 --> 00:09:32.894
  • What's been passed down.” your relatives may have eaten
  • 00:09:32.961 --> 00:09:34.829
  • Your relatives may have eaten the sour grapes, people in
  • 00:09:34.896 --> 00:09:36.965
  • The sour grapes, people in your family line put you at a
  • 00:09:37.032 --> 00:09:38.800
  • Your family line put you at a disadvantage, you're dealing

  • Disadvantage, you're dealing with consequences of their

  • With consequences of their actions, hardships that you
  • 00:09:42.270 --> 00:09:43.838
  • Actions, hardships that you didn't earn, god knows what
  • 00:09:43.905 --> 00:09:46.474
  • Didn't earn, god knows what wasn't fair. he knows when
  • 00:09:46.541 --> 00:09:48.710
  • Wasn't fair. he knows when you're carrying burdens put
  • 00:09:48.777 --> 00:09:50.278
  • You're carrying burdens put on you by others. that's why
  • 00:09:50.345 --> 00:09:52.113
  • On you by others. that's why he said, “i'm going to remove
  • 00:09:52.180 --> 00:09:53.915
  • He said, “i'm going to remove the reproach. i'm going to
  • 00:09:53.982 --> 00:09:55.684
  • The reproach. i'm going to take off of you, what doesn't

  • Belong to you. i'm going to free you from what you had
  • 00:09:58.987 --> 00:10:00.689
  • Free you from what you had nothing to do with.” he's not
  • 00:10:00.755 --> 00:10:02.724
  • Nothing to do with.” he's not holding you responsible for
  • 00:10:02.791 --> 00:10:04.559
  • Holding you responsible for these battles that you didn't
  • 00:10:04.626 --> 00:10:06.194
  • These battles that you didn't choose. he sees you doing the
  • 00:10:06.261 --> 00:10:08.697
  • Choose. he sees you doing the right thing when it's hard.
  • 00:10:08.763 --> 00:10:10.565
  • Right thing when it's hard. he sees the struggle, the
  • 00:10:10.632 --> 00:10:12.400
  • He sees the struggle, the loneliness, the injustice.
  • 00:10:12.467 --> 00:10:14.669
  • Loneliness, the injustice. that may be what you
  • 00:10:14.736 --> 00:10:15.737
  • That may be what you inherited but that's not how
  • 00:10:15.804 --> 00:10:17.472
  • Inherited but that's not how your story ends. god's about

  • I spoke to a woman that came from a family of alcoholics.
  • 00:13:58.459 --> 00:14:00.929
  • From a family of alcoholics. her father struggled with
  • 00:14:00.995 --> 00:14:02.030
  • Her father struggled with alcohol, her grandfather,
  • 00:14:02.096 --> 00:14:03.831
  • Alcohol, her grandfather, great grandfather. as far
  • 00:14:03.898 --> 00:14:05.533
  • Great grandfather. as far back as she could see, there
  • 00:14:05.600 --> 00:14:06.734
  • Back as she could see, there was this addiction of
  • 00:14:06.801 --> 00:14:08.269
  • Was this addiction of alcoholism. as a little girl,
  • 00:14:08.336 --> 00:14:11.172
  • Alcoholism. as a little girl, she saw her father drink too
  • 00:14:11.239 --> 00:14:12.640
  • She saw her father drink too much. he'd get loud and
  • 00:14:12.707 --> 00:14:14.509
  • Much. he'd get loud and abusive, mistreat her mother.
  • 00:14:14.575 --> 00:14:17.245
  • Abusive, mistreat her mother. she lived afraid and on edge.
  • 00:14:17.312 --> 00:14:19.681
  • She lived afraid and on edge. she got to where she hated
  • 00:14:19.747 --> 00:14:21.115
  • She got to where she hated alcohol. she saw it tear her
  • 00:14:21.182 --> 00:14:23.217
  • Alcohol. she saw it tear her family apart, never wanted to
  • 00:14:23.284 --> 00:14:25.153
  • Family apart, never wanted to have anything to do with it.
  • 00:14:25.219 --> 00:14:26.988
  • Have anything to do with it. but at fourteen years old,
  • 00:14:27.055 --> 00:14:28.790
  • But at fourteen years old, with a group of friends, she
  • 00:14:28.856 --> 00:14:30.191
  • With a group of friends, she took her first drink, did
  • 00:14:30.258 --> 00:14:32.226
  • Took her first drink, did something she said she'd
  • 00:14:32.293 --> 00:14:33.361
  • Something she said she'd never do. the first led to
  • 00:14:33.428 --> 00:14:35.296
  • Never do. the first led to another and another and
  • 00:14:35.363 --> 00:14:36.698
  • Another and another and another, and before long she
  • 00:14:36.764 --> 00:14:39.033
  • Another, and before long she became what she despised. at
  • 00:14:39.100 --> 00:14:41.402
  • Became what she despised. at seventeen, she was an
  • 00:14:41.469 --> 00:14:42.804
  • Seventeen, she was an alcoholic. that's not a
  • 00:14:42.870 --> 00:14:44.806
  • Alcoholic. that's not a coincidence. those are
  • 00:14:44.872 --> 00:14:46.274
  • Coincidence. those are spirits that get passed from
  • 00:14:46.341 --> 00:14:48.443
  • Spirits that get passed from generation to generation.
  • 00:14:48.509 --> 00:14:50.812
  • Generation to generation. it's not just a physical
  • 00:14:50.878 --> 00:14:51.913
  • It's not just a physical battle, it's a spiritual
  • 00:14:51.980 --> 00:14:53.514
  • Battle, it's a spiritual battle. i'm not saying again
  • 00:14:53.581 --> 00:14:55.817
  • Battle. i'm not saying again to blame the past, nothing's
  • 00:14:55.883 --> 00:14:57.151
  • To blame the past, nothing's ever our fault, but it's
  • 00:14:57.218 --> 00:14:58.886
  • Ever our fault, but it's important to recognize what
  • 00:14:58.953 --> 00:15:00.922
  • Important to recognize what you're dealing with. there
  • 00:15:00.989 --> 00:15:02.657
  • You're dealing with. there are some things that you
  • 00:15:02.724 --> 00:15:04.058
  • Are some things that you didn't start, you inherited
  • 00:15:04.125 --> 00:15:06.361
  • Didn't start, you inherited it. with all the willpower in
  • 00:15:06.427 --> 00:15:08.529
  • It. with all the willpower in the world you can't seem to
  • 00:15:08.596 --> 00:15:09.831
  • The world you can't seem to overcome. with all your

  • Discipline, strength, intellect, nothing is
  • 00:15:12.734 --> 00:15:13.768
  • Intellect, nothing is changing. it feels like we're
  • 00:15:13.835 --> 00:15:15.570
  • Changing. it feels like we're stuck. the reason it's so
  • 00:15:15.636 --> 00:15:17.772
  • Stuck. the reason it's so stubborn, is you're not just
  • 00:15:17.839 --> 00:15:19.640
  • Stubborn, is you're not just fighting this battle, you're
  • 00:15:19.707 --> 00:15:21.242
  • Fighting this battle, you're fighting a battle that's gone
  • 00:15:21.309 --> 00:15:23.044
  • Fighting a battle that's gone back for generations. the
  • 00:15:23.111 --> 00:15:25.146
  • Back for generations. the enemy has been working in

  • 00:15:26.681 --> 00:15:28.116
  • Your family line, trying to keep you from your purpose.
  • 00:15:28.182 --> 00:15:30.084
  • Keep you from your purpose. he's not going to give up

  • He's not going to give up ground easily.
  • 00:15:31.219 --> 00:15:33.154
  • Ground easily. the good news is, the forces
  • 00:15:33.221 --> 00:15:34.856
  • The good news is, the forces that are for you, are greater
  • 00:15:34.922 --> 00:15:36.958
  • That are for you, are greater than forces that are against
  • 00:15:37.025 --> 00:15:38.559
  • Than forces that are against you. this is when the most
  • 00:15:38.626 --> 00:15:40.528
  • You. this is when the most high god shows up. not just
  • 00:15:40.595 --> 00:15:43.164
  • High god shows up. not just with a breakthrough, but with

  • And stop. the priests walked in, i can imagine it got up
  • 00:20:50.071 --> 00:20:51.839
  • In, i can imagine it got up to their knees, then stopped,
  • 00:20:51.906 --> 00:20:53.474
  • To their knees, then stopped, but nothing happened. the
  • 00:20:53.541 --> 00:20:55.242
  • But nothing happened. the water didn't part like it did
  • 00:20:55.309 --> 00:20:56.711
  • Water didn't part like it did for moses at the red sea.
  • 00:20:56.777 --> 00:20:58.946
  • For moses at the red sea. they waited and waited, still
  • 00:20:59.013 --> 00:21:00.715
  • They waited and waited, still nothing. but what they
  • 00:21:00.781 --> 00:21:02.249
  • Nothing. but what they couldn't see was upstream,
  • 00:21:02.316 --> 00:21:04.985
  • Couldn't see was upstream, twenty miles away, this huge
  • 00:21:05.052 --> 00:21:07.321
  • Twenty miles away, this huge wind came and caused the
  • 00:21:07.388 --> 00:21:09.090
  • Wind came and caused the water to stop flowing. just
  • 00:21:09.156 --> 00:21:11.325
  • Water to stop flowing. just like a big dam, now no water
  • 00:21:11.392 --> 00:21:13.527
  • Like a big dam, now no water could get through. in a few
  • 00:21:13.594 --> 00:21:15.396
  • Could get through. in a few hours, the waters receded
  • 00:21:15.463 --> 00:21:17.498
  • Hours, the waters receded where they were, they were
  • 00:21:17.565 --> 00:21:18.866
  • Where they were, they were able to walk across on a dry
  • 00:21:18.933 --> 00:21:20.668
  • Able to walk across on a dry riverbed and go in to the
  • 00:21:20.735 --> 00:21:22.403
  • Riverbed and go in to the promised land. what joshua
  • 00:21:22.470 --> 00:21:25.039
  • Promised land. what joshua couldn't do on his own, what
  • 00:21:25.106 --> 00:21:27.208
  • Couldn't do on his own, what all of his men couldn't
  • 00:21:27.274 --> 00:21:28.275
  • All of his men couldn't defeat, the water was too
  • 00:21:28.342 --> 00:21:30.044
  • Defeat, the water was too powerful, the current too
  • 00:21:30.111 --> 00:21:31.612
  • Powerful, the current too strong, the riverbed too
  • 00:21:31.679 --> 00:21:33.214
  • Strong, the riverbed too wide. it seemed like they
  • 00:21:33.280 --> 00:21:34.715
  • Wide. it seemed like they were at a dead end. but god
  • 00:21:34.782 --> 00:21:36.851
  • Were at a dead end. but god is not limited by the
  • 00:21:36.917 --> 00:21:38.085
  • Is not limited by the natural. he's supernatural.
  • 00:21:38.152 --> 00:21:40.654
  • Natural. he's supernatural. he can do what we can't do.
  • 00:21:40.721 --> 00:21:43.457
  • He can do what we can't do. when we hear he's going to
  • 00:21:43.524 --> 00:21:44.892
  • When we hear he's going to remove the reproach and free
  • 00:21:44.959 --> 00:21:46.560
  • Remove the reproach and free us from generational baggage,
  • 00:21:46.627 --> 00:21:48.028
  • Us from generational baggage, sometimes we think, “i don't
  • 00:21:48.095 --> 00:21:49.130
  • Sometimes we think, “i don't know, joel. i don't see how.
  • 00:21:49.196 --> 00:21:50.798
  • Know, joel. i don't see how. i've had this addiction so
  • 00:21:50.865 --> 00:21:51.932
  • I've had this addiction so long. my family has always
  • 00:21:51.999 --> 00:21:54.068
  • Long. my family has always struggled with lack. i've
  • 00:21:54.135 --> 00:21:55.936
  • Struggled with lack. i've tried everything to deal with

  • This anxiety.” you've done all you can. god sees you
  • 00:21:59.573 --> 00:22:01.809
  • All you can. god sees you with your feet in the jordan
  • 00:22:01.876 --> 00:22:03.077
  • With your feet in the jordan river, so to speak. you've
  • 00:22:03.144 --> 00:22:04.512

  • 00:22:04.578 --> 00:22:06.313
  • Prayed. you've worked hard. you've stood strong, but you
  • 00:22:06.380 --> 00:22:08.082
  • You've stood strong, but you don't see anything changing.
  • 00:22:08.149 --> 00:22:09.750
  • Don't see anything changing. like with joshua, god's about
  • 00:22:09.817 --> 00:22:12.119
  • Like with joshua, god's about to stop what you couldn't
  • 00:22:12.186 --> 00:22:13.354
  • To stop what you couldn't stop. he's going to hold back
