  • Thanks for tuning in today. i like to start with
  • 00:00:34.657 --> 00:00:35.391
  • I like to start with something funny.
  • 00:00:35.458 --> 00:00:36.526
  • Something funny. i heard about this man; he
  • 00:00:36.593 --> 00:00:37.994
  • I heard about this man; he was driving through an
  • 00:00:38.061 --> 00:00:39.229
  • Was driving through an intersection that was
  • 00:00:39.295 --> 00:00:40.530
  • Intersection that was monitored by cameras.
  • 00:00:40.597 --> 00:00:42.165
  • Monitored by cameras. if you ran the light or
  • 00:00:42.232 --> 00:00:43.133
  • If you ran the light or broke the law in any way,
  • 00:00:43.199 --> 00:00:44.634
  • Broke the law in any way, you'd receive a ticket in
  • 00:00:44.701 --> 00:00:46.035
  • You'd receive a ticket in the mail.
  • 00:00:46.102 --> 00:00:47.070
  • The mail. so, he made sure to go
  • 00:00:47.137 --> 00:00:48.071
  • So, he made sure to go through it extra slowly,
  • 00:00:48.138 --> 00:00:49.606
  • Through it extra slowly, but he noticed the camera
  • 00:00:49.672 --> 00:00:50.673
  • But he noticed the camera flashed and took his
  • 00:00:50.740 --> 00:00:51.708
  • Flashed and took his picture.
  • 00:00:51.774 --> 00:00:52.876
  • Picture. he thought, “that's not
  • 00:00:52.942 --> 00:00:53.576
  • He thought, “that's not right.” he turned around
  • 00:00:53.643 --> 00:00:54.644
  • Right.” he turned around and drove through it again
  • 00:00:54.711 --> 00:00:56.012
  • And drove through it again even more slowly.
  • 00:00:56.079 --> 00:00:57.881
  • Even more slowly. this time, the camera
  • 00:00:57.947 --> 00:00:58.882
  • This time, the camera flashed and took his
  • 00:00:58.948 --> 00:00:59.749
  • Flashed and took his picture.
  • 00:00:59.816 --> 00:01:01.284
  • Picture. he thought, “this thing is
  • 00:01:01.351 --> 00:01:02.085
  • He thought, “this thing is messed up.
  • 00:01:02.152 --> 00:01:03.052
  • Messed up. they cannot give me a
  • 00:01:03.119 --> 00:01:03.920
  • They cannot give me a ticket.” out of spite, he
  • 00:01:03.987 --> 00:01:05.188
  • Ticket.” out of spite, he drove through it three more
  • 00:01:05.255 --> 00:01:06.322
  • Drove through it three more times, each time waving at
  • 00:01:06.389 --> 00:01:07.857
  • Times, each time waving at the camera and smiling.
  • 00:01:07.924 --> 00:01:10.160
  • The camera and smiling. a week later, he received
  • 00:01:10.226 --> 00:01:11.561
  • A week later, he received five tickets in the mail
  • 00:01:11.628 --> 00:01:12.595
  • Five tickets in the mail for not wearing his
  • 00:01:12.662 --> 00:01:13.630
  • For not wearing his seatbelt.
  • 00:01:13.696 --> 00:01:17.033
  • Seatbelt. say it like you mean it.
  • 00:01:17.100 --> 00:01:18.168
  • Say it like you mean it. and don't do that!
  • 00:01:18.234 --> 00:01:19.035
  • And don't do that! ready?
  • 00:01:19.102 --> 00:01:19.669
  • Ready? this is my bible.
  • 00:01:19.736 --> 00:01:21.237
  • This is my bible. i am what it says i am.
  • 00:01:21.304 --> 00:01:22.939
  • I am what it says i am. i have what it says i have.
  • 00:01:23.006 --> 00:01:24.474
  • I have what it says i have. i can do what it says
  • 00:01:24.541 --> 00:01:25.642
  • I can do what it says i can do. today, i will be
  • 00:01:25.708 --> 00:01:27.410
  • I can do. today, i will be taught the word of god.
  • 00:01:27.477 --> 00:01:29.379
  • Taught the word of god. i boldly confess: my mind
  • 00:01:29.445 --> 00:01:31.347
  • I boldly confess: my mind is alert. my heart is
  • 00:01:31.414 --> 00:01:32.715
  • Is alert. my heart is receptive. i will never
  • 00:01:32.782 --> 00:01:34.884
  • Receptive. i will never be the same in jesus' name.
  • 00:01:34.951 --> 00:01:37.320
  • Be the same in jesus' name. god bless you.
  • 00:01:37.387 --> 00:01:39.789
  • God bless you. i want to talk to you today
  • 00:01:39.856 --> 00:01:40.523
  • I want to talk to you today about the power of
  • 00:01:40.590 --> 00:01:41.925
  • About the power of agreement.
  • 00:01:41.991 --> 00:01:43.626
  • Agreement. we're all believing for a
  • 00:01:43.693 --> 00:01:44.761
  • We're all believing for a dream to come to pass, or
  • 00:01:44.827 --> 00:01:46.029
  • Dream to come to pass, or praying for a situation to
  • 00:01:46.095 --> 00:01:47.564
  • Praying for a situation to turn around.
  • 00:01:47.630 --> 00:01:49.165
  • Turn around. we're standing in faith,
  • 00:01:49.232 --> 00:01:50.466
  • We're standing in faith, trusting that god is
  • 00:01:50.533 --> 00:01:51.534
  • Trusting that god is working.
  • 00:01:51.601 --> 00:01:52.835
  • Working. but something more powerful
  • 00:01:52.902 --> 00:01:54.070
  • But something more powerful happens when you have
  • 00:01:54.137 --> 00:01:55.405
  • Happens when you have someone agree with you for
  • 00:01:55.471 --> 00:01:58.041
  • Someone agree with you for what you're believing for.
  • 00:01:58.107 --> 00:02:00.076
  • What you're believing for. jesus said, “if any two of
  • 00:02:00.143 --> 00:02:01.978
  • Jesus said, “if any two of you agree, concerning
  • 00:02:02.045 --> 00:02:03.713
  • You agree, concerning whatever you ask, it shall
  • 00:02:03.780 --> 00:02:05.748
  • Whatever you ask, it shall be done by my father in
  • 00:02:05.815 --> 00:02:07.650
  • Be done by my father in heaven.” he didn't say just
  • 00:02:07.717 --> 00:02:09.719
  • Heaven.” he didn't say just believe for yourself, just
  • 00:02:09.786 --> 00:02:11.554
  • Believe for yourself, just stand in faith alone and it
  • 00:02:11.621 --> 00:02:13.189
  • Stand in faith alone and it will happen.
  • 00:02:13.256 --> 00:02:14.657
  • Will happen. he said find someone that
  • 00:02:14.724 --> 00:02:16.259
  • He said find someone that will come into agreement
  • 00:02:16.326 --> 00:02:17.560
  • Will come into agreement with you.
  • 00:02:17.627 --> 00:02:19.095
  • With you. he was showing us the power
  • 00:02:19.162 --> 00:02:20.396
  • He was showing us the power of agreement.
  • 00:02:20.463 --> 00:02:22.098
  • Of agreement. when you're believing to
  • 00:02:22.165 --> 00:02:23.233
  • When you're believing to accomplish a dream, take
  • 00:02:23.299 --> 00:02:24.634
  • Accomplish a dream, take your family to a new level,
  • 00:02:24.701 --> 00:02:26.469
  • Your family to a new level, overcome an illness, you
  • 00:02:26.536 --> 00:02:28.171
  • Overcome an illness, you need people with bold faith.
  • 00:02:28.238 --> 00:02:30.840
  • Need people with bold faith. not people that say, “i
  • 00:02:30.907 --> 00:02:32.208
  • Not people that say, “i don't see how it can happen.
  • 00:02:32.275 --> 00:02:34.110
  • Don't see how it can happen. you really think you'll get
  • 00:02:34.177 --> 00:02:35.044
  • You really think you'll get well? my grandmother died
  • 00:02:35.111 --> 00:02:37.046
  • Well? my grandmother died of that same thing.”
  • 00:02:37.113 --> 00:02:38.448
  • Of that same thing.” doubters are a dime
  • 00:02:38.514 --> 00:02:39.515
  • Doubters are a dime a dozen. you need people
  • 00:02:39.582 --> 00:02:41.317
  • A dozen. you need people to say, “if you're bold
  • 00:02:41.384 --> 00:02:42.685
  • To say, “if you're bold enough to believe it,
  • 00:02:42.752 --> 00:02:44.120
  • Enough to believe it, i'm bold enough to agree
  • 00:02:44.187 --> 00:02:45.521
  • I'm bold enough to agree with you.” you need a
  • 00:02:45.588 --> 00:02:46.756
  • With you.” you need a faith partner. someone
  • 00:02:46.823 --> 00:02:48.458
  • Faith partner. someone that will take the limits
  • 00:02:48.524 --> 00:02:49.759
  • That will take the limits off of god with you.
  • 00:02:49.826 --> 00:02:51.494
  • Off of god with you. that will believe for what
  • 00:02:51.561 --> 00:02:52.629
  • That will believe for what looks impossible.
  • 00:02:52.695 --> 00:02:54.364
  • Looks impossible. what's limiting some people
  • 00:02:54.430 --> 00:02:56.232
  • What's limiting some people is they have no agreement.
  • 00:02:56.299 --> 00:02:58.368
  • Is they have no agreement. they're believing on their
  • 00:02:58.434 --> 00:02:59.235
  • They're believing on their own, that's good but when
  • 00:02:59.302 --> 00:03:00.770
  • Own, that's good but when you come into agreement, it
  • 00:03:00.837 --> 00:03:02.739
  • You come into agreement, it releases favor in a new
  • 00:03:02.805 --> 00:03:04.240
  • Releases favor in a new way, healing,
  • 00:03:04.307 --> 00:03:05.842
  • Way, healing, breakthroughs, abundance,
  • 00:03:05.908 --> 00:03:07.577
  • Breakthroughs, abundance, that you won't see by
  • 00:03:07.644 --> 00:03:08.611
  • That you won't see by yourself.
  • 00:03:08.678 --> 00:03:09.912
  • Yourself. the scripture says, “all of
  • 00:03:09.979 --> 00:03:11.481
  • The scripture says, “all of god's promises are yes and
  • 00:03:11.547 --> 00:03:13.549
  • God's promises are yes and amen.” when god puts a
  • 00:03:13.616 --> 00:03:15.818
  • Amen.” when god puts a promise in your heart and
  • 00:03:15.885 --> 00:03:17.387
  • Promise in your heart and you believe it, you have
  • 00:03:17.453 --> 00:03:18.521
  • You believe it, you have the yes, you know it's
  • 00:03:18.588 --> 00:03:19.922
  • The yes, you know it's going to happen.
  • 00:03:19.989 --> 00:03:21.524
  • Going to happen. but the yes alone is not
  • 00:03:21.591 --> 00:03:22.992
  • But the yes alone is not enough, you need to find
  • 00:03:23.059 --> 00:03:24.394
  • Enough, you need to find the amen.
  • 00:03:24.460 --> 00:03:26.162
  • The amen. find someone to agree with
  • 00:03:26.229 --> 00:03:27.697
  • Find someone to agree with you.
  • 00:03:27.764 --> 00:03:28.965
  • You. someone that says, “you
  • 00:03:29.032 --> 00:03:30.400
  • Someone that says, “you believe god is restoring
  • 00:03:30.466 --> 00:03:31.634
  • Believe god is restoring health back to you, you
  • 00:03:31.701 --> 00:03:33.403
  • Health back to you, you believe by his stripes you
  • 00:03:33.469 --> 00:03:35.071
  • Believe by his stripes you are healed.
  • 00:03:35.138 --> 00:03:36.272
  • Are healed. you have the yes, count me
  • 00:03:36.339 --> 00:03:37.840
  • You have the yes, count me in. i have the amen.
  • 00:03:37.907 --> 00:03:40.576
  • In. i have the amen. i agree with you that
  • 00:03:40.643 --> 00:03:41.911
  • I agree with you that healing is coming, i agree
  • 00:03:41.978 --> 00:03:43.746
  • Healing is coming, i agree that you will live and not
  • 00:03:43.813 --> 00:03:45.248
  • That you will live and not die, i agree the number of
  • 00:03:45.315 --> 00:03:46.816
  • Die, i agree the number of your days god will
  • 00:03:46.883 --> 00:03:48.318
  • Your days god will fulfill.” or “you believe
  • 00:03:48.384 --> 00:03:50.887
  • Fulfill.” or “you believe you'll break the addiction.
  • 00:03:50.953 --> 00:03:52.722
  • You'll break the addiction. you believe no weapon
  • 00:03:52.789 --> 00:03:54.157
  • You believe no weapon formed against you will
  • 00:03:54.223 --> 00:03:55.458
  • Formed against you will prosper.” you have the yes;
  • 00:03:55.525 --> 00:03:57.894
  • Prosper.” you have the yes; you're standing on the
  • 00:03:57.960 --> 00:03:58.961
  • You're standing on the promises.

  • Promises. now find the amen, not an

  • “you really think so, you've struggled a long

  • You've struggled a long time, it doesn't look
  • 00:04:06.469 --> 00:04:07.537
  • Time, it doesn't look good.” god's promises are
  • 00:04:07.603 --> 00:04:09.238
  • Good.” god's promises are not yes and oh no, they are
  • 00:04:09.305 --> 00:04:11.240
  • Not yes and oh no, they are yes and amen.
  • 00:04:11.307 --> 00:04:13.676
  • Yes and amen. you need to come out of oh
  • 00:04:13.743 --> 00:04:14.577
  • You need to come out of oh no agreements.

  • No agreements. come out of negative
  • 00:04:16.679 --> 00:04:17.714
  • Come out of negative agreements, people that

  • Agreements, people that doubt and water down your

  • That seemed impossible?
  • 00:24:11.373 --> 00:24:13.141
  • If you only pray small,

  • It could be ours.
  • 00:24:31.593 --> 00:24:32.861
  • But when they moved out,
  • 00:24:32.861 --> 00:24:34.095
  • Somehow
  • 00:24:34.095 --> 00:24:34.663
  • We had the faith to pray
  • 00:24:34.663 --> 00:24:35.830
  • A bold prayer.
  • 00:24:35.830 --> 00:24:37.065
  • God made things happen
  • 00:24:37.065 --> 00:24:38.500
  • That we could
  • 00:24:38.500 --> 00:24:38.967
  • Never make happen.
  • 00:24:38.967 --> 00:24:40.135
  • It's the same for you.
  • 00:24:40.135 --> 00:24:41.770
  • Who knows what
  • 00:24:41.770 --> 00:24:42.470
  • God would do in your life

  • That's when god will show up
  • 00:24:50.078 --> 00:24:51.613
  • And do more
  • 00:24:51.613 --> 00:24:52.480
  • Than you could ever imagine.

  • Than we have ever imagined.
  • 00:25:13.101 --> 00:25:15.036
  • God doesn't
  • 00:25:15.036 --> 00:25:15.704
  • Want us to just pray
  • 00:25:15.704 --> 00:25:17.005
  • In our comfort zones.
  • 00:25:17.005 --> 00:25:18.473
