Frustration year after year. the supervisor was a young man.
00:08:54.323 --> 00:08:56.726
The supervisor was a young man. it looked like he could be at

We were in line for a very popular ride.
00:10:06.262 --> 00:10:07.363
Popular ride. at first it was all single file
00:10:07.430 --> 00:10:08.998
At first it was all single file but when you got close to the
00:10:09.065 --> 00:10:10.633
But when you got close to the front you went into this little
00:10:10.700 --> 00:10:12.001
Front you went into this little building about 20 feet by 20
00:10:12.068 --> 00:10:13.936
Building about 20 feet by 20 feet and waited.
00:10:14.003 --> 00:10:15.471
Feet and waited. we were the first ones in this

Front by these big double doors and waited.
00:10:23.312 --> 00:10:24.814
And waited. but other people began to come
00:10:24.880 --> 00:10:26.048
But other people began to come in. they were excited about

(laughter/applause) but in the same way, all god
00:11:01.550 --> 00:11:02.518
But in the same way, all god has to do is shift the

Has to do is shift the direction and you'll go from
00:11:04.787 --> 00:11:06.489
Direction and you'll go from the back up to the front.
00:11:06.555 --> 00:11:09.458

One shift from seeing your health improve, one shift from
00:11:19.869 --> 00:11:21.370
Health improve, one shift from meeting the right person.
00:11:21.437 --> 00:11:23.806
Meeting the right person. well, you say, "joel, you're
00:11:23.873 --> 00:11:25.174
Well, you say, "joel, you're just getting people's hopes up."
00:11:25.241 --> 00:11:25.908
Just getting people's hopes up." you're right.
00:11:25.975 --> 00:11:27.042
You're right. you can't have faith if you
00:11:27.109 --> 00:11:28.511
You can't have faith if you don't first have hope.
00:11:28.577 --> 00:11:30.579
Don't first have hope. when you go out with the
00:11:30.646 --> 00:11:31.680
When you go out with the attitude, "god, i believe things
00:11:31.747 --> 00:11:33.449
Attitude, "god, i believe things are shifting in my favor this
00:11:33.516 --> 00:11:35.217
Are shifting in my favor this year," (applause)
00:11:35.284 --> 00:11:36.852
Year," (applause) that's not just being positive.
00:11:36.919 --> 00:11:38.687
That's not just being positive. that's your faith being
00:11:38.754 --> 00:11:40.122
That's your faith being released.
00:11:40.189 --> 00:11:41.123
Released. god says to the angels,
00:11:41.190 --> 00:11:42.925
God says to the angels, "listen to what they're saying.
00:11:42.992 --> 00:11:43.926
"listen to what they're saying. they believe i'm all-powerful.
00:11:43.993 --> 00:11:46.028
They believe i'm all-powerful. they believe i can do the
00:11:46.095 --> 00:11:48.097
They believe i can do the impossible. let me move this
00:11:48.164 --> 00:11:49.498
Impossible. let me move this person out of the way.
00:11:49.565 --> 00:11:51.233
Person out of the way. let me open up this new door.
00:11:51.300 --> 00:11:53.402
Let me open up this new door. let me line up this new
00:11:53.469 --> 00:11:54.336
Let me line up this new relationship. let me turn that
00:11:54.403 --> 00:11:55.571
Relationship. let me turn that negative situation around."
00:11:55.638 --> 00:11:57.506
Negative situation around." it says in isaiah that, "this
00:11:57.573 --> 00:11:59.008
It says in isaiah that, "this is god's year to act."
00:11:59.074 --> 00:12:00.843
Is god's year to act." not next year. not five years.
00:12:00.910 --> 00:12:03.512
Not next year. not five years. not in the sweet by and by.
00:12:03.579 --> 00:12:05.648
Not in the sweet by and by. this is the year god is going to
00:12:05.714 --> 00:12:07.416
This is the year god is going to shift things in your favor.
00:12:07.483 --> 00:12:09.652
Shift things in your favor. he is getting it all lined up.
00:12:09.718 --> 00:12:11.187
He is getting it all lined up. what you could not make happen
00:12:11.253 --> 00:12:13.055
What you could not make happen on your own god is going to
00:12:13.122 --> 00:12:14.490
On your own god is going to cause you to accomplish.
00:12:14.557 --> 00:12:16.759
Cause you to accomplish. it's going to be bigger than you
00:12:16.826 --> 00:12:18.093
It's going to be bigger than you thought.
00:12:18.160 --> 00:12:19.328
Thought. it's going to happen quicker
00:12:19.395 --> 00:12:20.496
It's going to happen quicker than you imagined and it's going
00:12:20.563 --> 00:12:21.831
Than you imagined and it's going to be more rewarding than you
00:12:21.897 --> 00:12:23.199
To be more rewarding than you ever dreamed of.
00:12:23.265 --> 00:12:25.668
Ever dreamed of. genesis 48, there's a story of
00:12:25.734 --> 00:12:27.803
Genesis 48, there's a story of when jacob was an old man very
00:12:27.870 --> 00:12:29.872
When jacob was an old man very close to death.
00:12:29.939 --> 00:12:31.407
Close to death. his son joseph came to visit him
00:12:31.473 --> 00:12:34.376
His son joseph came to visit him and say his goodbyes.
00:12:34.443 --> 00:12:36.612
And say his goodbyes. he and his father were very
00:12:36.679 --> 00:12:38.547
He and his father were very close.
00:12:38.614 --> 00:12:41.016
Close. joseph was jacob's favorite
00:12:41.083 --> 00:12:44.720
Joseph was jacob's favorite child.
00:12:44.787 --> 00:12:46.856
Child. he was the youngest son, the one
00:12:46.922 --> 00:12:47.590
He was the youngest son, the one that jacob gave the coat of many
00:12:47.656 --> 00:12:48.524
That jacob gave the coat of many colors to if you remember.
00:12:48.591 --> 00:12:49.925
Colors to if you remember. at one point jacob thought
00:12:49.992 --> 00:12:51.327
At one point jacob thought joseph was dead and lived very
00:12:51.393 --> 00:12:53.128
Joseph was dead and lived very sadly until he found out indeed
00:12:53.195 --> 00:12:54.697
Sadly until he found out indeed joseph was alive and living in
00:12:54.763 --> 00:12:56.565
Joseph was alive and living in egypt.
00:12:56.632 --> 00:12:58.400
Egypt. they reunited and now jacob,
00:12:58.467 --> 00:13:00.135
They reunited and now jacob, the father, was about to pass.
00:13:00.202 --> 00:13:01.670
The father, was about to pass. joseph was standing before him
00:13:01.737 --> 00:13:03.072
Joseph was standing before him with his two sons, manasseh and
00:13:03.138 --> 00:13:05.808
With his two sons, manasseh and ephraim, jacob's grandsons.
00:13:05.875 --> 00:13:11.547
Ephraim, jacob's grandsons. jacob said, "joseph, i'm going
00:13:11.614 --> 00:13:13.449
Jacob said, "joseph, i'm going to bless your sons as if they
00:13:13.515 --> 00:13:15.417
To bless your sons as if they were my own children."
00:13:15.484 --> 00:13:17.653
Were my own children." the right hand in those days
00:13:17.720 --> 00:13:19.288
The right hand in those days always gave the greatest
00:13:19.355 --> 00:13:20.556
Always gave the greatest blessing.
00:13:20.623 --> 00:13:22.925
Blessing. it belonged to the firstborn
00:13:22.992 --> 00:13:23.525
It belonged to the firstborn son.
00:13:23.592 --> 00:13:25.694
Son. that was the tradition.
00:13:25.761 --> 00:13:27.229
That was the tradition. so joseph put his oldest son,
00:13:27.296 --> 00:13:29.832
So joseph put his oldest son, manasseh, in front of jacob's
00:13:29.899 --> 00:13:31.834
Manasseh, in front of jacob's right hand and his younger son,
00:13:31.901 --> 00:13:34.536
Right hand and his younger son, ephraim, in front of his left.
00:13:34.603 --> 00:13:37.172
Ephraim, in front of his left. jacob was nearly blind.
00:13:37.239 --> 00:13:38.908
Jacob was nearly blind. he couldn't see.
00:13:38.974 --> 00:13:39.608
He couldn't see. when he went to give the
00:13:39.675 --> 00:13:41.410
When he went to give the blessing jacob crossed his hands
00:13:41.477 --> 00:13:43.045
Blessing jacob crossed his hands and put his right hand on the
00:13:43.112 --> 00:13:46.015
And put his right hand on the younger son, ephraim, and his
00:13:46.081 --> 00:13:47.917
Younger son, ephraim, and his left hand on manasseh, the older
00:13:47.983 --> 00:13:50.486
Left hand on manasseh, the older son.
00:13:50.552 --> 00:13:51.854
Son. joseph said, "no, dad. you
00:13:51.921 --> 00:13:52.955
Joseph said, "no, dad. you can't see. i had them lined up.
00:13:53.022 --> 00:13:54.523
Can't see. i had them lined up. i put manasseh in front of your
00:13:54.590 --> 00:13:57.126
I put manasseh in front of your right hand. he deserves it.
00:13:57.192 --> 00:13:59.528
Right hand. he deserves it. give him the greater blessing."
00:13:59.595 --> 00:14:02.398
Give him the greater blessing." jacob said something very
00:14:02.464 --> 00:14:03.766
Jacob said something very interesting. it gives us
00:14:03.832 --> 00:14:05.401
Interesting. it gives us insight into our god.
00:14:05.467 --> 00:14:07.236
Insight into our god. he said, "no, joseph. i've
00:14:07.303 --> 00:14:08.470
He said, "no, joseph. i've crossed my hands on purpose.
00:14:08.537 --> 00:14:11.840
Crossed my hands on purpose. ephraim may have come second,
00:14:11.907 --> 00:14:13.842
Ephraim may have come second, he may have been in the back,
00:14:13.909 --> 00:14:15.911
He may have been in the back, he doesn't deserve it, didn't
00:14:15.978 --> 00:14:17.613
He doesn't deserve it, didn't qualify for it. he's not next
00:14:17.680 --> 00:14:19.214
Qualify for it. he's not next in line but i'm shifting him to
00:14:19.281 --> 00:14:21.550
In line but i'm shifting him to a new position. i'm taking him
00:14:21.617 --> 00:14:24.687
A new position. i'm taking him from the back up to the front.
00:14:24.753 --> 00:14:27.156
From the back up to the front. i'm going to give him what he
00:14:27.222 --> 00:14:28.724
I'm going to give him what he doesn't deserve." (applause)
00:14:28.791 --> 00:14:30.926
Doesn't deserve." (applause) that's the way our god is.
00:14:30.993 --> 00:14:33.195
That's the way our god is. he has shifts in your future
00:14:33.262 --> 00:14:35.331
He has shifts in your future that will put you at a position
00:14:35.397 --> 00:14:37.533
That will put you at a position that you didn't earn, you didn't
00:14:37.599 --> 00:14:38.867
That you didn't earn, you didn't qualify for, you weren't next in
00:14:38.934 --> 00:14:41.804
Qualify for, you weren't next in line, you didn't have seniority,
00:14:41.870 --> 00:14:44.440
Line, you didn't have seniority, but god, just like he did with
00:14:44.506 --> 00:14:46.608
But god, just like he did with ephraim, is going to cross his
00:14:46.675 --> 00:14:48.677
Ephraim, is going to cross his hands and say, "i'm going to
00:14:48.744 --> 00:14:50.446
Hands and say, "i'm going to move them up from the back to
00:14:50.512 --> 00:14:52.214
Move them up from the back to the front, from not being
00:14:52.281 --> 00:14:54.516
The front, from not being qualified to suddenly being
00:14:54.583 --> 00:14:56.218
Qualified to suddenly being qualified, from being looked
00:14:56.285 --> 00:14:58.120
Qualified, from being looked down on, disrespected, to being
00:14:58.187 --> 00:15:00.122
Down on, disrespected, to being honored and seen with influence
00:15:00.189 --> 00:15:02.458
Honored and seen with influence and credibility."
00:15:02.524 --> 00:15:04.827
And credibility." in fact, some people will be
00:15:04.893 --> 00:15:05.928
In fact, some people will be bothered by it.
00:15:05.995 --> 00:15:07.129
Bothered by it. they'll think, "that's not fair.
00:15:07.196 --> 00:15:07.763
They'll think, "that's not fair. i worked harder. i have more
00:15:07.830 --> 00:15:09.365
I worked harder. i have more seniority."
00:15:09.431 --> 00:15:10.799
Seniority." but the fact is it's just the
00:15:10.866 --> 00:15:11.934
But the fact is it's just the goodness of god.
00:15:12.001 --> 00:15:13.836
Goodness of god. god said because you honor him,
00:15:13.902 --> 00:15:16.205
God said because you honor him, he would give you houses that
00:15:16.271 --> 00:15:17.373
He would give you houses that you didn't have to build.
00:15:17.439 --> 00:15:18.907
You didn't have to build. you would reap from vineyards
00:15:18.974 --> 00:15:20.576
You would reap from vineyards that you did not plant.
00:15:20.642 --> 00:15:22.244
That you did not plant. that's god crossing his hands,
00:15:22.311 --> 00:15:24.713
That's god crossing his hands, giving us what should have taken
00:15:24.780 --> 00:15:26.749
Giving us what should have taken years to earn.
00:15:26.815 --> 00:15:28.250
Years to earn. god is saying to you what jacob
00:15:28.317 --> 00:15:30.285
God is saying to you what jacob said to ephraim, "i'm going to
00:15:30.352 --> 00:15:31.887
Said to ephraim, "i'm going to bless you on purpose. i'm going
00:15:31.954 --> 00:15:34.490
Bless you on purpose. i'm going to move you up. i'm going to
00:15:34.556 --> 00:15:35.858
To move you up. i'm going to accelerate your dreams.
00:15:35.924 --> 00:15:37.726
Accelerate your dreams. i'm going to give you what you
00:15:37.793 --> 00:15:38.961
I'm going to give you what you didn't deserve. i'm going to
00:15:39.028 --> 00:15:40.396
Didn't deserve. i'm going to shift you into a position that
00:15:40.462 --> 00:15:42.364
Shift you into a position that you could have never gotten
00:15:42.431 --> 00:15:43.565
You could have never gotten to on your own."
00:15:43.632 --> 00:15:45.534
To on your own." you think you're hitting on all
00:15:45.601 --> 00:15:47.002
You think you're hitting on all cylinders but if you only knew
00:15:47.069 --> 00:15:49.138
Cylinders but if you only knew what god has in store.
00:15:49.204 --> 00:15:51.240
What god has in store. it's like you're in second gear.
00:15:51.306 --> 00:15:52.841
It's like you're in second gear. you're making progress.
00:15:52.908 --> 00:15:54.510
You're making progress. you're healthy.
00:15:54.576 --> 00:15:55.444
You're healthy. you're moving forward.
00:15:55.511 --> 00:15:56.612
You're moving forward. but god is about to shift you
00:15:56.678 --> 00:15:57.913
But god is about to shift you out of second, past third, past
00:15:57.980 --> 00:16:00.682
Out of second, past third, past fourth, into overdrive.
00:16:00.749 --> 00:16:03.085
Fourth, into overdrive. you're going to see the
00:16:03.152 --> 00:16:04.086
You're going to see the surpassing greatness of god's
00:16:04.153 --> 00:16:06.121
Surpassing greatness of god's favor. (cheering/applause)
00:16:06.188 --> 00:16:07.990
Favor. (cheering/applause) because you've honored god,
00:16:08.057 --> 00:16:09.992
Because you've honored god, living a life of excellence and
00:16:10.059 --> 00:16:11.927
Living a life of excellence and integrity, god is going to take
00:16:11.994 --> 00:16:13.629
Integrity, god is going to take you beyond your training, beyond
00:16:13.695 --> 00:16:16.031
You beyond your training, beyond your education, beyond your
00:16:16.098 --> 00:16:18.000
Your education, beyond your income, beyond where anyone in
00:16:18.067 --> 00:16:20.636
Income, beyond where anyone in your family has gone.
00:16:20.702 --> 00:16:23.005
Your family has gone. this shift is going to put you
00:16:23.072 --> 00:16:24.206
This shift is going to put you at a place where you look back
00:16:24.273 --> 00:16:26.442
At a place where you look back and say, "wow, god. you have
00:16:26.508 --> 00:16:27.910
And say, "wow, god. you have amazed me with your goodness."
00:16:27.976 --> 00:16:29.912
Amazed me with your goodness." (applause)
00:16:29.978 --> 00:16:31.480
(applause) when the israelites were in the
00:16:31.547 --> 00:16:32.481
When the israelites were in the desert headed toward the
00:16:32.548 --> 00:16:34.316
Desert headed toward the promised land they had manna
00:16:34.383 --> 00:16:35.884
Promised land they had manna to eat each day.
00:16:35.951 --> 00:16:37.920
To eat each day. it was something like bread.
00:16:37.986 --> 00:16:39.388
It was something like bread. after a while they got tired
00:16:39.455 --> 00:16:40.722
After a while they got tired of it.
00:16:40.789 --> 00:16:41.690
Of it. they complained to moses that
00:16:41.757 --> 00:16:42.791
They complained to moses that they didn't have any meat to
00:16:42.858 --> 00:16:44.059
They didn't have any meat to eat.
00:16:44.126 --> 00:16:45.527
Eat. god told moses what the people
00:16:45.594 --> 00:16:46.562
God told moses what the people were saying.
00:16:46.628 --> 00:16:48.030
Were saying. god said, "moses, i'm going to
00:16:48.097 --> 00:16:49.164
God said, "moses, i'm going to give you meat not for one day or
00:16:49.231 --> 00:16:52.034
Give you meat not for one day or five days or 20 days but for a

00:24:29.457 --> 00:24:30.425
Our sense of value and cause us to forget
00:24:30.492 --> 00:24:31.793
