- I want to talk to you today about supercharged.
- 00:01:42.792 --> 00:01:45.161
- About supercharged. we all have times where we
- 00:01:45.228 --> 00:01:46.529
- We all have times where we feel like we've reached our
- 00:01:46.596 --> 00:01:47.797
- Feel like we've reached our limits. we've done our
- 00:01:47.864 --> 00:01:49.232
- Limits. we've done our best, worked hard, stayed
- 00:01:49.299 --> 00:01:51.668
- Best, worked hard, stayed in faith but the dream
- 00:01:51.734 --> 00:01:53.136
- In faith but the dream seems too big, the
- 00:01:53.203 --> 00:01:54.604
- Seems too big, the challenge too strong, the
- 00:01:54.671 --> 00:01:56.439
- Challenge too strong, the medical report is not good.
- 00:01:56.506 --> 00:01:58.541
- Medical report is not good. we've come to the end of
- 00:01:58.608 --> 00:01:59.943
- We've come to the end of our ability.
- 00:02:00.009 --> 00:02:01.311
- Our ability. if we only had more talent,
- 00:02:01.377 --> 00:02:03.179
- If we only had more talent, more stamina, more favor,
- 00:02:03.246 --> 00:02:04.847
- More stamina, more favor, more creativity.
- 00:02:04.914 --> 00:02:06.416
- More creativity. then we could accomplish the
- 00:02:06.482 --> 00:02:07.650
- Then we could accomplish the dream, then we could defeat
- 00:02:07.717 --> 00:02:09.419
- Dream, then we could defeat the giant.
- 00:02:09.485 --> 00:02:10.787
- The giant. god knew there would be
- 00:02:10.853 --> 00:02:12.055
- God knew there would be times like these, where on
- 00:02:12.121 --> 00:02:13.790
- Times like these, where on our own, we can't fulfill
- 00:02:13.856 --> 00:02:15.525
- Our own, we can't fulfill our purpose.
- 00:02:15.592 --> 00:02:16.659
- Our purpose. by ourselves we're at a
- 00:02:16.726 --> 00:02:18.127
- By ourselves we're at a disadvantage, the giant is
- 00:02:18.194 --> 00:02:19.963
- Disadvantage, the giant is bigger, the opposition is
- 00:02:20.029 --> 00:02:21.598
- Bigger, the opposition is stronger.
- 00:02:21.664 --> 00:02:22.632
- Stronger. we don't have the endurance
- 00:02:22.699 --> 00:02:23.866
- We don't have the endurance to withstand what we're up
- 00:02:23.933 --> 00:02:25.535
- To withstand what we're up against.
- 00:02:25.602 --> 00:02:26.869
- Against. david felt this way.
- 00:02:26.936 --> 00:02:28.705
- David felt this way. as a teenager, when he saw
- 00:02:28.771 --> 00:02:30.473
- As a teenager, when he saw goliath, his reasoning said,
- 00:02:30.540 --> 00:02:32.976
- Goliath, his reasoning said, "you don't have a chance.
- 00:02:33.042 --> 00:02:34.377
- "you don't have a chance. he's twice your size."
- 00:02:34.444 --> 00:02:36.412
- He's twice your size." david had a good heart,
- 00:02:36.479 --> 00:02:37.947
- David had a good heart, he was faithful, but he was
- 00:02:38.014 --> 00:02:39.515
- He was faithful, but he was limited. he didn't have
- 00:02:39.582 --> 00:02:41.050
- Limited. he didn't have the size, the strength,
- 00:02:41.117 --> 00:02:42.852
- The size, the strength, the experience.
- 00:02:42.919 --> 00:02:44.320
- The experience. but david knew a secret.
- 00:02:44.387 --> 00:02:46.122
- But david knew a secret. he said in psalm 103, "you
- 00:02:46.189 --> 00:02:48.091
- He said in psalm 103, "you have supercharged my life so
- 00:02:48.157 --> 00:02:51.127
- Have supercharged my life so i can soar like an eagle
- 00:02:51.194 --> 00:02:53.196
- I can soar like an eagle flying in the sky."
- 00:02:53.263 --> 00:02:55.198
- Flying in the sky." you may feel like you're at
- 00:02:55.265 --> 00:02:56.399
- You may feel like you're at a disadvantage, the giants
- 00:02:56.466 --> 00:02:58.067
- A disadvantage, the giants are bigger, you don't have
- 00:02:58.134 --> 00:02:59.502
- Are bigger, you don't have the strength, the talent,
- 00:02:59.569 --> 00:03:01.304
- The strength, the talent, the endurance.
- 00:03:01.371 --> 00:03:02.305
- The endurance. god is saying, "don't worry.
- 00:03:02.372 --> 00:03:04.173
- God is saying, "don't worry. i'm about to supercharge
- 00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:05.541
- I'm about to supercharge your life.
- 00:03:05.608 --> 00:03:06.509
- Your life. i'm about to give you
- 00:03:06.576 --> 00:03:07.410
- I'm about to give you strength that you've never
- 00:03:07.477 --> 00:03:08.711
- Strength that you've never had, ability that you've
- 00:03:08.778 --> 00:03:10.580
- Had, ability that you've never seen, favor that will
- 00:03:10.647 --> 00:03:12.782
- Never seen, favor that will catapult you ahead."
- 00:03:12.849 --> 00:03:14.884
- Catapult you ahead." god will never let you face
- 00:03:14.951 --> 00:03:16.452
- God will never let you face a giant that you can't
- 00:03:16.519 --> 00:03:17.920
- A giant that you can't overcome.
- 00:03:17.987 --> 00:03:19.188
- Overcome. he'll never put a dream in
- 00:03:19.255 --> 00:03:20.590
- He'll never put a dream in your heart that you can't
- 00:03:20.657 --> 00:03:21.991
- Your heart that you can't accomplish.
- 00:03:22.058 --> 00:03:23.393
- Accomplish. you may not have the size,
- 00:03:23.459 --> 00:03:24.827
- You may not have the size, the skill, the experience.
- 00:03:24.894 --> 00:03:26.663
- The skill, the experience. that's okay, a supercharge
- 00:03:26.729 --> 00:03:28.965
- That's okay, a supercharge is coming.
- 00:03:29.032 --> 00:03:29.999
- Is coming. when god breathes on your
- 00:03:30.066 --> 00:03:31.367
- When god breathes on your life, you will accomplish
- 00:03:31.434 --> 00:03:32.869
- Life, you will accomplish things that seem impossible,
- 00:03:32.935 --> 00:03:35.305
- Things that seem impossible, you'll outlast opposition
- 00:03:35.371 --> 00:03:37.273
- You'll outlast opposition that should have overwhelmed
- 00:03:37.340 --> 00:03:38.408
- That should have overwhelmed you, you'll discover talent
- 00:03:38.474 --> 00:03:40.576
- You, you'll discover talent and ability that you didn't
- 00:03:40.643 --> 00:03:42.011
- And ability that you didn't know you had.
- 00:03:42.078 --> 00:03:43.513
- Know you had. instead of thinking, "i
- 00:03:43.579 --> 00:03:44.847
- Instead of thinking, "i can't take this anymore,
- 00:03:44.914 --> 00:03:46.582
- Can't take this anymore, i'm tired, these
- 00:03:46.649 --> 00:03:47.850
- I'm tired, these obstacles are too big."
- 00:03:47.917 --> 00:03:49.419
- Obstacles are too big." turn it around.
- 00:03:49.485 --> 00:03:50.520
- Turn it around. "father, thank you for
- 00:03:50.586 --> 00:03:51.688
- "father, thank you for supercharging my life."
- 00:03:51.754 --> 00:03:54.057
- Supercharging my life." when david went out to face
- 00:03:54.123 --> 00:03:55.558
- When david went out to face goliath, he could have been
- 00:03:55.625 --> 00:03:56.926
- Goliath, he could have been intimidated, afraid,
- 00:03:56.993 --> 00:03:58.995
- Intimidated, afraid, wondering what he was going
- 00:03:59.062 --> 00:04:00.029
- Wondering what he was going to do.
- 00:04:00.096 --> 00:04:01.064
- To do. but all of the sudden, he
- 00:04:01.130 --> 00:04:02.498
- But all of the sudden, he felt strength that he'd
- 00:04:02.565 --> 00:04:03.666
- Felt strength that he'd never felt, courage,
- 00:04:03.733 --> 00:04:05.401
- Never felt, courage, ability.
- 00:04:05.468 --> 00:04:06.736
- Ability. he picked up that rock and
- 00:04:06.803 --> 00:04:08.504
- He picked up that rock and slung it with such force,
- 00:04:08.571 --> 00:04:09.939
- Slung it with such force, and such accuracy that it
- 00:04:10.006 --> 00:04:11.974
- And such accuracy that it knocked goliath to the
- 00:04:12.041 --> 00:04:13.176
- Knocked goliath to the ground, unconscious.
- 00:04:13.242 --> 00:04:15.244
- Ground, unconscious. how could that happen?
- 00:04:15.311 --> 00:04:16.913
- How could that happen? god supercharged his life.
- 00:04:16.979 --> 00:04:19.215
- God supercharged his life. god gave him strength,
- 00:04:19.282 --> 00:04:20.783
- God gave him strength, ability, favor to do what
- 00:04:20.850 --> 00:04:23.286
- Ability, favor to do what he couldn't do on his own.
- 00:04:23.353 --> 00:04:25.288
- He couldn't do on his own. the scripture says, "you can
- 00:04:25.355 --> 00:04:26.689
- The scripture says, "you can run through a troop and leap
- 00:04:26.756 --> 00:04:28.591
- Run through a troop and leap over a wall."
- 00:04:28.658 --> 00:04:30.159
- Over a wall." we can't do that in our own
- 00:04:30.226 --> 00:04:31.427
- We can't do that in our own ability.
- 00:04:31.494 --> 00:04:32.528
- Ability. you can't run through
- 00:04:32.595 --> 00:04:33.363
- You can't run through hundreds of soldiers trying
- 00:04:33.429 --> 00:04:34.831
- Hundreds of soldiers trying to stop you, you can't jump
- 00:04:34.897 --> 00:04:36.599
- To stop you, you can't jump over a huge wall surrounding
- 00:04:36.666 --> 00:04:38.601
- Over a huge wall surrounding a city.
- 00:04:38.668 --> 00:04:39.736
- A city. but when god supercharges
- 00:04:39.802 --> 00:04:41.537
- But when god supercharges your life, you'll accomplish
- 00:04:41.604 --> 00:04:43.439
- Your life, you'll accomplish what you can't accomplish
- 00:04:43.506 --> 00:04:44.741
- What you can't accomplish on your own.
- 00:04:44.807 --> 00:04:46.175
- On your own. don't be discouraged because
- 00:04:46.242 --> 00:04:47.844
- Don't be discouraged because you feel limited, you're
- 00:04:47.910 --> 00:04:49.545
- You feel limited, you're facing obstacles that seem
- 00:04:49.612 --> 00:04:51.013
- Facing obstacles that seem bigger, you're tired from
- 00:04:51.080 --> 00:04:52.615
- Bigger, you're tired from fighting battles, a
- 00:04:52.682 --> 00:04:53.883
- Fighting battles, a supercharge is coming.
- 00:04:53.950 --> 00:04:56.452
- Supercharge is coming. when i was in high school,
- 00:04:56.519 --> 00:04:58.054

- 00:05:18.174 --> 00:05:19.175
- It through the turns. i loved driving it.
- 00:05:19.242 --> 00:05:21.177
- I loved driving it. a good friend of mine had
- 00:05:21.244 --> 00:05:22.645
- A good friend of mine had the same car, the same year
- 00:05:22.712 --> 00:05:25.148
- The same car, the same year in a different color.
- 00:05:25.214 --> 00:05:26.682

- They put in a different air compressor that gave it
- 00:05:37.827 --> 00:05:39.395
- Compressor that gave it more horsepower.
- 00:05:39.462 --> 00:05:40.830
- More horsepower. they installed a bigger
- 00:05:40.897 --> 00:05:41.864
- They installed a bigger muffler, a different exhaust
- 00:05:41.931 --> 00:05:43.766
- Muffler, a different exhaust system.
- 00:05:43.833 --> 00:05:44.634

- They put different shocks on it, so it would handle
- 00:05:45.968 --> 00:05:47.336
- On it, so it would handle better.
- 00:05:47.403 --> 00:05:48.504

- What's interesting is his car looked just like mine.
- 00:05:50.139 --> 00:05:52.341
- Car looked just like mine. on the outside you couldn't
- 00:05:52.408 --> 00:05:53.843
- On the outside you couldn't tell anything was different
- 00:05:53.910 --> 00:05:55.812

- 00:05:55.878 --> 00:05:57.480
- But when he turned his on his motor was twice as loud.
- 00:05:57.547 --> 00:05:59.982

- We never raced, but if we did--lord forgive me for
- 00:06:08.558 --> 00:06:09.358
- Did--lord forgive me for lying--but if we did it
- 00:06:09.425 --> 00:06:11.194
- Lying--but if we did it would be no match.
- 00:06:11.260 --> 00:06:12.328
- Would be no match. his car would beat mine
- 00:06:12.395 --> 00:06:13.830
- His car would beat mine every time. why?
- 00:06:13.896 --> 00:06:16.098
- Every time. why? his car was supercharged,
- 00:06:16.165 --> 00:06:18.100
- His car was supercharged, mine was ordinary.
- 00:06:18.167 --> 00:06:19.902

- Your own, to accomplish what seems impossible.
- 00:07:35.077 --> 00:07:37.146
- Seems impossible. in the scripture, nehemiah
- 00:07:37.213 --> 00:07:39.048
- In the scripture, nehemiah was working as a cupbearer
- 00:07:39.115 --> 00:07:40.850
- Was working as a cupbearer for the king.
- 00:07:40.917 --> 00:07:42.084

- But god put a dream in his heart to rebuild the walls
- 00:07:47.990 --> 00:07:49.759
- Heart to rebuild the walls of jerusalem.
- 00:07:49.825 --> 00:07:51.394
- Of jerusalem. he was living a thousand
- 00:07:51.460 --> 00:07:52.728
- He was living a thousand miles away.
- 00:07:52.795 --> 00:07:53.996
- Miles away. he didn't have the
- 00:07:54.063 --> 00:07:54.630
- He didn't have the resources, the connections,
- 00:07:54.697 --> 00:07:56.399
- Resources, the connections, the experience.
- 00:07:56.465 --> 00:07:57.867
- The experience. he wasn't a builder.
- 00:07:57.934 --> 00:07:59.435
- He wasn't a builder. that wasn't his trade.
- 00:07:59.502 --> 00:08:00.536
- That wasn't his trade. it seemed impossible.
- 00:08:00.603 --> 00:08:02.772
- It seemed impossible. but god won't give you a
- 00:08:02.838 --> 00:08:04.006
- But god won't give you a dream and then not give you
- 00:08:04.073 --> 00:08:06.075
- Dream and then not give you what you need to accomplish
- 00:08:06.142 --> 00:08:07.410
- What you need to accomplish it. you may not have the
- 00:08:07.476 --> 00:08:08.945
- It. you may not have the talent, the strength,
- 00:08:09.011 --> 00:08:10.580
- Talent, the strength, the funds, but god is not
- 00:08:10.646 --> 00:08:12.214
- The funds, but god is not finished. he's still
- 00:08:12.281 --> 00:08:13.649
- Finished. he's still working. when he
- 00:08:13.716 --> 00:08:15.051
- Working. when he supercharges your life,
- 00:08:15.117 --> 00:08:16.752
- Supercharges your life, you'll come into things
- 00:08:16.819 --> 00:08:17.820

- That you've never had. don't judge your future
- 00:08:19.589 --> 00:08:20.923
- Don't judge your future based on what you have
- 00:08:20.990 --> 00:08:22.291
- Based on what you have right now.
- 00:08:22.358 --> 00:08:23.593
- Right now. there are times in your
- 00:08:23.659 --> 00:08:24.460
- There are times in your life where god is going
- 00:08:24.527 --> 00:08:25.928
- Life where god is going to catapult you ahead.
- 00:08:25.995 --> 00:08:27.863
- To catapult you ahead. suddenly you'll have
- 00:08:27.930 --> 00:08:28.831
- Suddenly you'll have courage, suddenly you'll
- 00:08:28.898 --> 00:08:30.199
- Courage, suddenly you'll have favor, suddenly the
- 00:08:30.266 --> 00:08:31.634
- Have favor, suddenly the door will open.
- 00:08:31.701 --> 00:08:33.302
- Door will open. nehemiah was normally quiet,
- 00:08:33.369 --> 00:08:35.538
- Nehemiah was normally quiet, reserved, never made any
- 00:08:35.605 --> 00:08:37.139
- Reserved, never made any waves.
- 00:08:37.206 --> 00:08:37.773
- Waves. but all of the sudden, he
- 00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:39.508
- But all of the sudden, he had this boldness, this
- 00:08:39.575 --> 00:08:41.043
- Had this boldness, this confidence to do something
- 00:08:41.110 --> 00:08:42.878
- Confidence to do something that he had never done.
- 00:08:42.945 --> 00:08:44.480
- That he had never done. he went to the king and
- 00:08:44.547 --> 00:08:45.781
- He went to the king and asked him for time off
- 00:08:45.848 --> 00:08:47.683
- Asked him for time off to travel to jerusalem
- 00:08:47.750 --> 00:08:49.285
- To travel to jerusalem to rebuild the walls.
- 00:08:49.352 --> 00:08:51.287
- To rebuild the walls. he could have been
- 00:08:51.354 --> 00:08:51.921
- He could have been intimidated, afraid,
- 00:08:51.988 --> 00:08:53.956
- Intimidated, afraid, thinking, "the king might
- 00:08:54.023 --> 00:08:54.890
- Thinking, "the king might get upset, he might hold
- 00:08:54.957 --> 00:08:56.659
- Get upset, he might hold this against me."
- 00:08:56.726 --> 00:08:58.327
- This against me." there was no reason for
- 00:08:58.394 --> 00:08:59.562
- There was no reason for the king to let him off.
- 00:08:59.629 --> 00:09:01.163
- The king to let him off. the walls didn't have
- 00:09:01.230 --> 00:09:01.998
- The walls didn't have anything to do with him,
- 00:09:02.064 --> 00:09:03.666
- Anything to do with him, but the king said, "yes,
- 00:09:03.733 --> 00:09:05.234
- But the king said, "yes, you can go."
- 00:09:05.301 --> 00:09:06.836
- You can go." god has already lined up
- 00:09:06.902 --> 00:09:08.571
- God has already lined up the right people to say
- 00:09:08.638 --> 00:09:10.072
- The right people to say yes to you.
- 00:09:10.139 --> 00:09:11.540
- Yes to you. what normally would be a no,
- 00:09:11.607 --> 00:09:13.609
- What normally would be a no, when it's your time, god
- 00:09:13.676 --> 00:09:14.977
- When it's your time, god will turn it into a yes.
- 00:09:15.044 --> 00:09:17.213
- Will turn it into a yes. nehemiah not only asked for
- 00:09:17.279 --> 00:09:18.914
- Nehemiah not only asked for permission, he asked the
- 00:09:18.981 --> 00:09:20.583
- Permission, he asked the king for the materials to
- 00:09:20.650 --> 00:09:22.818
- King for the materials to rebuild the wall.
- 00:09:22.885 --> 00:09:24.387
- Rebuild the wall. he said in effect, "i know
- 00:09:24.453 --> 00:09:25.988
- He said in effect, "i know this is my project, but
- 00:09:26.055 --> 00:09:27.723
- This is my project, but will you pay for it?
- 00:09:27.790 --> 00:09:29.191
- Will you pay for it? will you give me letters
- 00:09:29.258 --> 00:09:30.393
- Will you give me letters requesting the materials?"
- 00:09:30.459 --> 00:09:31.661
- Requesting the materials?" that took a lot of nerve,
- 00:09:31.727 --> 00:09:33.796
- That took a lot of nerve, but somehow, he had this
- 00:09:33.863 --> 00:09:34.997
- But somehow, he had this new boldness.
- 00:09:35.064 --> 00:09:36.298
- New boldness. the king didn't think twice,
- 00:09:36.365 --> 00:09:37.667
- The king didn't think twice, he said, "yes, i will."
- 00:09:37.733 --> 00:09:38.868
- He said, "yes, i will." it should have taken him
- 00:09:38.934 --> 00:09:40.469
- It should have taken him years to rebuild the walls,
- 00:09:40.536 --> 00:09:42.471
- Years to rebuild the walls, but nehemiah did it in just
- 00:09:42.538 --> 00:09:44.173
- But nehemiah did it in just fifty two days.
- 00:09:44.240 --> 00:09:45.975
- Fifty two days. how could that happen?
- 00:09:46.042 --> 00:09:47.543
- How could that happen? god supercharged his life.
- 00:09:47.610 --> 00:09:49.812
- God supercharged his life. god gave him strength,
- 00:09:49.879 --> 00:09:51.113
- God gave him strength, ability, favor that he had
- 00:09:51.180 --> 00:09:52.782
- Ability, favor that he had never seen.
