  • Say it like you mean it: "this is my bible.
  • 00:01:00.817 --> 00:01:02.085
  • "this is my bible. i am what it says i am.

  • 00:01:05.755 --> 00:01:06.823

  • Do. today i will be taught the
  • 00:01:08.124 --> 00:01:09.292

  • God bless you. i want to talk to you today
  • 00:01:20.937 --> 00:01:22.071
  • I want to talk to you today about "just one good break."
  • 00:01:22.138 --> 00:01:24.641
  • About "just one good break." sometimes we don't see how we
  • 00:01:24.707 --> 00:01:26.042
  • Sometimes we don't see how we can accomplish our dreams.
  • 00:01:26.109 --> 00:01:28.077
  • Can accomplish our dreams. we don't have the we don't have the connections, the resources,
  • 00:01:28.144 --> 00:01:28.845
  • Connections, the resources, the experience.
  • 00:01:30.880 --> 00:01:32.215
  • The experience. i talked to a young man that
  • 00:01:32.282 --> 00:01:33.416
  • I talked to a young man that wanted to go to college,
  • 00:01:33.483 --> 00:01:34.951
  • Wanted to go to college, but his scholarship
  • 00:01:35.018 --> 00:01:35.985
  • But his scholarship didn't go through.
  • 00:01:36.052 --> 00:01:37.320
  • Didn't go through. he comes from a single-parent
  • 00:01:37.387 --> 00:01:38.621
  • He comes from a single-parent home, and he doesn't have
  • 00:01:38.688 --> 00:01:40.123
  • Home, and he doesn't have the funds.
  • 00:01:40.190 --> 00:01:41.257
  • The funds. the odds are against him,
  • 00:01:41.324 --> 00:01:42.959
  • The odds are against him, and it's easy to get
  • 00:01:43.026 --> 00:01:44.194
  • And it's easy to get discouraged and think,
  • 00:01:44.260 --> 00:01:45.562
  • Discouraged and think, "i'll never get well.
  • 00:01:45.628 --> 00:01:46.896
  • "i'll never get well. look at the medical report."
  • 00:01:46.963 --> 00:01:48.531
  • Look at the medical report." "i'll never break
  • 00:01:48.598 --> 00:01:49.532
  • "i'll never break this addiction.
  • 00:01:49.599 --> 00:01:50.533
  • This addiction. i've had it for years."
  • 00:01:50.600 --> 00:01:51.801
  • I've had it for years." "i can't get out of debt.
  • 00:01:51.868 --> 00:01:53.203
  • "i can't get out of debt. i've gone as far as i can."
  • 00:01:53.269 --> 00:01:54.938
  • I've gone as far as i can." it may look like it's not
  • 00:01:55.004 --> 00:01:56.639
  • It may look like it's not going to happen, but what you
  • 00:01:56.706 --> 00:01:58.541
  • Going to happen, but what you can't see is you're just one
  • 00:01:58.608 --> 00:02:00.610
  • Can't see is you're just one good break away.
  • 00:02:00.677 --> 00:02:02.979
  • Good break away. just meeting one right
  • 00:02:03.046 --> 00:02:04.347
  • Just meeting one right person, just one phone call,
  • 00:02:04.414 --> 00:02:07.016
  • Person, just one phone call, one contract, one healing,
  • 00:02:07.083 --> 00:02:09.219
  • One contract, one healing, and what seemed impossible
  • 00:02:09.285 --> 00:02:10.653
  • And what seemed impossible will suddenly become
  • 00:02:10.720 --> 00:02:13.022
  • Will suddenly become possible.
  • 00:02:13.089 --> 00:02:14.490
  • Possible. you don't need a hundred
  • 00:02:14.557 --> 00:02:16.025
  • You don't need a hundred things to go right.
  • 00:02:16.092 --> 00:02:17.527
  • Things to go right. just one touch of god's favor
  • 00:02:17.594 --> 00:02:19.295
  • Just one touch of god's favor and doors will open that you
  • 00:02:19.362 --> 00:02:21.497
  • And doors will open that you couldn't open.
  • 00:02:21.564 --> 00:02:23.166
  • Couldn't open. just one person being for you
  • 00:02:23.233 --> 00:02:24.801
  • Just one person being for you will catapult you ahead.
  • 00:02:24.867 --> 00:02:27.537
  • Will catapult you ahead. just one breakthrough, and
  • 00:02:27.604 --> 00:02:29.172
  • Just one breakthrough, and suddenly, you get well.
  • 00:02:29.239 --> 00:02:30.840
  • Suddenly, you get well. suddenly, you're free from
  • 00:02:30.907 --> 00:02:32.041
  • Suddenly, you're free from the addiction.

  • The addiction. suddenly, the depression is
  • 00:02:33.309 --> 00:02:34.444
  • Suddenly, the depression is gone, and you may have
  • 00:02:34.510 --> 00:02:36.045
  • Gone, and you may have situations that don't look
  • 00:02:36.112 --> 00:02:37.714
  • Situations that don't look like they'll ever change, but
  • 00:02:37.780 --> 00:02:39.482
  • Like they'll ever change, but stay encouraged.
  • 00:02:39.549 --> 00:02:40.950
  • Stay encouraged. god has already arranged good
  • 00:02:41.017 --> 00:02:42.752
  • God has already arranged good breaks for you, things that
  • 00:02:42.819 --> 00:02:45.154
  • Breaks for you, things that you couldn't make happen.
  • 00:02:45.221 --> 00:02:46.789
  • You couldn't make happen. you weren't next in line.

  • You weren't next in line. you didn't have the
  • 00:02:48.491 --> 00:02:49.359
  • You didn't have the experience, but out of
  • 00:02:49.425 --> 00:02:50.693
  • Experience, but out of nowhere, the contract came to
  • 00:02:50.760 --> 00:02:52.395
  • Nowhere, the contract came to you.
  • 00:02:52.462 --> 00:02:53.696

  • You didn't have to try to win them over.
  • 00:03:00.236 --> 00:03:01.804
  • Them over. for no reason, they will go
  • 00:03:01.871 --> 00:03:03.373
  • For no reason, they will go out of their way to be good
  • 00:03:03.439 --> 00:03:05.074
  • Out of their way to be good to you.
  • 00:03:05.141 --> 00:03:06.476
  • To you. they've been ordained by god
  • 00:03:06.542 --> 00:03:08.011
  • They've been ordained by god to move you into your

  • You don't have to worry about how it's going to work out.
  • 00:03:12.382 --> 00:03:14.684
  • How it's going to work out. god can cause one person to
  • 00:03:14.751 --> 00:03:16.286
  • God can cause one person to like you, one person to say,
  • 00:03:16.352 --> 00:03:18.554
  • Like you, one person to say, "promote them, give them the
  • 00:03:18.621 --> 00:03:20.223
  • "promote them, give them the position," and suddenly,
  • 00:03:20.290 --> 00:03:21.924
  • Position," and suddenly, you'll go to a new level, and
  • 00:03:21.991 --> 00:03:23.526
  • You'll go to a new level, and instead of thinking, "it's a
  • 00:03:23.593 --> 00:03:24.794
  • Instead of thinking, "it's a long way off.
  • 00:03:24.861 --> 00:03:26.829
  • Long way off. i don't see how it can ever
  • 00:03:26.896 --> 00:03:27.864
  • I don't see how it can ever happen, turn it around,
  • 00:03:27.930 --> 00:03:29.399
  • Happen, turn it around, "father, thank you that i'm

  • Thank you that one touch of your goodness, and things
  • 00:03:34.604 --> 00:03:36.339
  • Your goodness, and things will change in my favor."
  • 00:03:36.406 --> 00:03:38.374
  • Will change in my favor." do you know how we got the

  • Compaq center? just one phone call.
  • 00:03:41.044 --> 00:03:42.178
  • Just one phone call. that's how it all started.
  • 00:03:42.245 --> 00:03:44.247
  • That's how it all started. we were trying to build a new
  • 00:03:44.314 --> 00:03:45.815
  • We were trying to build a new auditorium, but twice, the
  • 00:03:45.882 --> 00:03:47.684

  • Land. but when something doesn't
  • 00:03:55.591 --> 00:03:56.759
  • But when something doesn't work our your way, it's
  • 00:03:56.826 --> 00:03:58.361
  • Work our your way, it's because god has something
  • 00:03:58.428 --> 00:04:00.229
  • Because god has something better in store, and you may
  • 00:04:00.296 --> 00:04:02.231
  • Better in store, and you may not be able to see it at that
  • 00:04:02.298 --> 00:04:03.833
  • Not be able to see it at that time, but that's when you
