00:01:11.050 --> 00:01:12.085
I'll begin reading with habakkuk 2:1,
00:01:12.152 --> 00:01:15.755
With habakkuk 2:1, "i will stand my watch,
00:01:15.822 --> 00:01:17.724
"i will stand my watch, i will set myself on the tower,
00:01:17.790 --> 00:01:21.161
I will set myself on the tower, and i will watch to see
00:01:21.227 --> 00:01:23.630

What he will say to me, and what i will answer
00:01:27.033 --> 00:01:28.902
And what i will answer when i am corrected.
00:01:28.968 --> 00:01:31.938
When i am corrected. then the lord answered me
00:01:32.005 --> 00:01:33.973
Then the lord answered me and said,
00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:35.375
And said, 'write the vision,
00:01:35.441 --> 00:01:36.776
'write the vision, make it plain on tablets,
00:01:36.843 --> 00:01:39.145
Make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it.
00:01:39.212 --> 00:01:42.348
That he may run who reads it. for the vision is yet
00:01:42.415 --> 00:01:43.917
For the vision is yet for an appointed time;
00:01:43.983 --> 00:01:46.186
For an appointed time; but at the end it will speak,
00:01:46.252 --> 00:01:48.454
But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie.
00:01:48.521 --> 00:01:50.456
And it will not lie. though it tarries,
00:01:50.523 --> 00:01:51.858
Though it tarries, wait for it;
00:01:51.925 --> 00:01:53.526

Vision in the bible is mentioned many times.
00:02:15.081 --> 00:02:16.583
Is mentioned many times. there were open visions,
00:02:16.649 --> 00:02:17.817
There were open visions, there were closed visions,
00:02:17.884 --> 00:02:19.485
There were closed visions, there people who were
00:02:19.552 --> 00:02:20.653
There people who were carried in a vision
00:02:20.720 --> 00:02:22.488
Carried in a vision by god to places,
00:02:22.555 --> 00:02:24.557
By god to places, even to the third heaven.
00:02:24.624 --> 00:02:27.894
Even to the third heaven. but the kind of vision that
00:02:27.961 --> 00:02:28.995
But the kind of vision that this text is giving us

Affects all of us. vision is the ability to see a
00:02:35.768 --> 00:02:37.470
Vision is the ability to see a day you have yet to enter into.
00:02:37.537 --> 00:02:41.207
Day you have yet to enter into. vision is what you focus on.
00:02:41.274 --> 00:02:44.777
Vision is what you focus on. he said,
00:02:44.844 --> 00:02:45.478
He said, "i will watch to see what
00:02:45.545 --> 00:02:48.982

What he will say, but i'm watching,"
00:02:53.786 --> 00:02:55.088
But i'm watching," habakkuk said,
00:02:55.154 --> 00:02:56.489
Habakkuk said, "to see what god is saying."
00:02:56.556 --> 00:02:59.993
"to see what god is saying." in other words,
00:03:00.059 --> 00:03:00.727
In other words, if you're gonna see
00:03:00.793 --> 00:03:01.861
If you're gonna see what they're saying,
00:03:01.928 --> 00:03:02.562
What they're saying, it's a picture,
00:03:02.629 --> 00:03:04.163

Not just hear what he will say,
00:03:24.550 --> 00:03:25.485

When i get to heaven. he said, right here,

He said, right here, right now,

Of god, which the bible says,
00:05:25.238 --> 00:05:26.506
Which the bible says, i have to see myself like that
00:05:26.572 --> 00:05:28.608
I have to see myself like that so i can come boldly

If you believe in your heart you're a failure,
00:05:38.251 --> 00:05:40.286
You're a failure, if you believe in your heart
00:05:40.353 --> 00:05:41.287
If you believe in your heart you can't succeed,
00:05:41.354 --> 00:05:42.188
You can't succeed, that everybody else
00:05:42.255 --> 00:05:43.156
That everybody else is better than you,
00:05:43.222 --> 00:05:44.857
Is better than you, if you believe in your heart
00:05:44.924 --> 00:05:46.392
If you believe in your heart that you don't deserve
00:05:46.459 --> 00:05:47.560
That you don't deserve what others can obtain
00:05:47.627 --> 00:05:51.330
What others can obtain through the cross,
00:05:51.397 --> 00:05:53.499
Through the cross, you've got to be able to see
00:05:53.566 --> 00:05:55.268
You've got to be able to see yourself walking in what god
00:05:55.334 --> 00:05:57.470
Yourself walking in what god says about you.
00:05:57.537 --> 00:06:01.674
Says about you. and there are obstacles
00:06:01.741 --> 00:06:02.742
And there are obstacles to that vision,
00:06:02.809 --> 00:06:03.676
To that vision, three specifically.
00:06:03.743 --> 00:06:06.512
Three specifically. he said --
00:06:06.579 --> 00:06:07.313
He said -- first of all i want you
00:06:07.380 --> 00:06:09.615
First of all i want you to understand that the vision
00:06:09.682 --> 00:06:11.784
To understand that the vision that god gives you will
00:06:11.851 --> 00:06:13.820
That god gives you will have the obstacle of present
00:06:13.886 --> 00:06:16.789
Have the obstacle of present circumstances not lining
00:06:16.856 --> 00:06:19.158
Circumstances not lining up with what god
00:06:19.225 --> 00:06:20.760
Up with what god is telling you to do.
00:06:20.827 --> 00:06:21.461
Is telling you to do. and that's why he said,
00:06:21.527 --> 00:06:22.962
And that's why he said, in the next part of the verse,
00:06:23.029 --> 00:06:24.697
In the next part of the verse, "write the vision."
00:06:24.764 --> 00:06:27.166
"write the vision." when you see what i say
00:06:27.233 --> 00:06:30.369
When you see what i say i want you to write it down.
00:06:30.436 --> 00:06:32.038
I want you to write it down. why?
00:06:32.104 --> 00:06:32.972
Why? because i want it logged into
00:06:33.039 --> 00:06:34.674
Because i want it logged into your mind what i say over what
00:06:34.740 --> 00:06:37.076
Your mind what i say over what present circumstances say.
00:06:37.143 --> 00:06:40.079
Present circumstances say. i want you to hang on to it.
00:06:40.146 --> 00:06:42.381
I want you to hang on to it. i want you to pull it
00:06:42.448 --> 00:06:43.816
I want you to pull it out of the drawer
00:06:43.883 --> 00:06:44.684
Out of the drawer and look at it again
00:06:44.750 --> 00:06:46.152
And look at it again and remind yourself i showed you
00:06:46.219 --> 00:06:49.388
And remind yourself i showed you that that family would be saved.
00:06:49.455 --> 00:06:51.190
That that family would be saved. i told you that that business
00:06:51.257 --> 00:06:53.292
I told you that that business would be blessed.
00:06:53.359 --> 00:06:54.427
Would be blessed. i told you that
00:06:54.494 --> 00:06:55.728
I told you that i would help you.
00:06:55.795 --> 00:06:57.063
I would help you. i told you in that service,
00:06:57.129 --> 00:06:58.531
I told you in that service, i gave you --
00:06:58.598 --> 00:06:59.565
I gave you -- i said it and you saw it,
00:06:59.632 --> 00:07:01.467
I said it and you saw it, write it down because
00:07:01.534 --> 00:07:02.969
Write it down because there will come days where
00:07:03.035 --> 00:07:05.104
There will come days where tomorrow you'll have
00:07:05.171 --> 00:07:06.806
Tomorrow you'll have the opportunity to lose
00:07:06.873 --> 00:07:08.975
The opportunity to lose what god is saying
00:07:09.041 --> 00:07:09.809
What god is saying to you today because
00:07:09.876 --> 00:07:11.644
To you today because you're not seeing it
00:07:11.711 --> 00:07:12.879
You're not seeing it in the present circumstances.
00:07:12.945 --> 00:07:15.815
In the present circumstances. not only is there the challenge
00:07:15.882 --> 00:07:17.717
Not only is there the challenge of present circumstance,
00:07:17.783 --> 00:07:18.985
Of present circumstance, and more people have given up
00:07:19.051 --> 00:07:20.753
And more people have given up on their vision
00:07:20.820 --> 00:07:21.487
On their vision because of present circumstances
00:07:21.554 --> 00:07:24.290
Because of present circumstances than probably anything.
00:07:24.357 --> 00:07:26.125
Than probably anything. they let the present
00:07:26.192 --> 00:07:27.527
They let the present talk them out of it.
00:07:27.593 --> 00:07:29.028
Talk them out of it. i don't let the pre --
00:07:29.095 --> 00:07:30.196
I don't let the pre -- when god tells me something,
00:07:30.263 --> 00:07:31.931
When god tells me something, i don't let the present
00:07:31.998 --> 00:07:33.366
I don't let the present circumstances talk me
00:07:33.432 --> 00:07:34.600
Circumstances talk me out of it.
00:07:34.667 --> 00:07:35.668
Out of it. hallelujah.
00:07:35.735 --> 00:07:36.536
Hallelujah. and that's how you maintain joy.
00:07:36.602 --> 00:07:39.272
And that's how you maintain joy. because you don't live by
00:07:39.338 --> 00:07:40.606
Because you don't live by what you see,
00:07:40.673 --> 00:07:41.607
What you see, you live by what god said.
00:07:41.674 --> 00:07:43.643
You live by what god said. and i just believe
00:07:43.709 --> 00:07:44.911
And i just believe that when it's all
00:07:44.977 --> 00:07:46.112
That when it's all said and done
00:07:46.178 --> 00:07:46.479
Said and done that god's gon' take it
00:07:46.546 --> 00:07:47.480
That god's gon' take it a lot like this,
00:07:47.547 --> 00:07:48.481
A lot like this, and a lot like that,
00:07:48.548 --> 00:07:49.248
And a lot like that, and a lot like this,
00:07:49.315 --> 00:07:49.882
And a lot like this, and all this,
00:07:49.949 --> 00:07:50.650
And all this, and all this,
00:07:50.716 --> 00:07:51.183
And all this, and then finally,
00:07:51.250 --> 00:07:53.152
And then finally, in his timing,
00:07:53.219 --> 00:07:54.020
In his timing, see, he will withhold
00:07:54.086 --> 00:07:55.588
See, he will withhold no good thing from them
00:07:55.655 --> 00:07:57.156
No good thing from them that walk uprightly.
00:07:57.223 --> 00:07:59.325
That walk uprightly. if god's withheld it,
00:07:59.392 --> 00:08:00.526
If god's withheld it, it wasn't good
00:08:00.593 --> 00:08:01.994
It wasn't good or it wasn't time yet.
00:08:02.061 --> 00:08:04.463
Or it wasn't time yet. and for me,
00:08:04.530 --> 00:08:05.264
And for me, when i hear him say it,
00:08:05.331 --> 00:08:06.933
When i hear him say it, i wait to see what he will say,
00:08:06.999 --> 00:08:09.235
I wait to see what he will say, and when i know that i know
00:08:09.302 --> 00:08:10.870
And when i know that i know that he's told me --
00:08:10.937 --> 00:08:13.105
That he's told me -- "my sheep know my voice,"
00:08:13.172 --> 00:08:14.106
"my sheep know my voice," he said,
00:08:14.173 --> 00:08:17.043
He said, then i get it settled.
00:08:17.109 --> 00:08:19.145
Then i get it settled. go on and act crazy,
00:08:19.211 --> 00:08:20.246
Go on and act crazy, do whatever you wanna do,
00:08:20.313 --> 00:08:21.681
Do whatever you wanna do, let all hell break loose,
00:08:21.747 --> 00:08:23.516
Let all hell break loose, but present circumstances
00:08:23.583 --> 00:08:25.484
But present circumstances don't change the promises
00:08:25.551 --> 00:08:26.986
Don't change the promises of god.
00:08:27.053 --> 00:08:27.520
[applause]
00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:33.960
The second thing is not
00:08:34.260 --> 00:08:35.561
The second thing is not just present circumstances
00:08:35.628 --> 00:08:37.096
Just present circumstances or obstacles to the vision,
00:08:37.163 --> 00:08:39.865
Or obstacles to the vision, but present resources.
00:08:39.932 --> 00:08:43.502
But present resources. i mean, this is a big one.
00:08:43.569 --> 00:08:45.605
I mean, this is a big one. you never have now
00:08:45.671 --> 00:08:49.141
You never have now what you need to get
00:08:49.208 --> 00:08:50.409
What you need to get the vision done because present
00:08:50.476 --> 00:08:53.646
The vision done because present resources don't match up
00:08:53.713 --> 00:08:56.682
Resources don't match up with where god is taking you.
00:08:56.749 --> 00:09:00.119
With where god is taking you. i never had the money to do
00:09:00.186 --> 00:09:01.821
I never had the money to do what god told me to do.
00:09:01.887 --> 00:09:05.858
What god told me to do. it's pro-vision,
00:09:05.925 --> 00:09:07.093
It's pro-vision, which means you get vision
00:09:07.159 --> 00:09:08.794
Which means you get vision and the pro comes,
00:09:08.861 --> 00:09:10.162
And the pro comes, the provision.
00:09:10.229 --> 00:09:14.967
The provision. but if you're sitting around
00:09:15.034 --> 00:09:16.002
But if you're sitting around waiting on the lottery,
00:09:16.068 --> 00:09:17.470
Waiting on the lottery, you're never gon' do anything.
00:09:17.536 --> 00:09:20.573
You're never gon' do anything. it's vision that
00:09:20.640 --> 00:09:21.707
It's vision that attracts resources.
00:09:21.774 --> 00:09:23.075
Attracts resources. there's a bible verse,
00:09:23.142 --> 00:09:23.776
There's a bible verse, and i tell this
00:09:23.843 --> 00:09:24.644
And i tell this to young preachers
00:09:24.710 --> 00:09:25.177
To young preachers all the time --
00:09:25.244 --> 00:09:26.479
All the time -- i'm telling you,
00:09:26.545 --> 00:09:27.880
I'm telling you, i read a little book one time
00:09:27.947 --> 00:09:29.548
I read a little book one time and this guy, he said this,
00:09:29.615 --> 00:09:32.985
And this guy, he said this, he said,
00:09:33.052 --> 00:09:33.719
He said, he said,
00:09:33.786 --> 00:09:34.253
He said, "deep calls unto deep."
00:09:34.320 --> 00:09:35.554
"deep calls unto deep." that's a bible verse,
00:09:35.621 --> 00:09:36.288
That's a bible verse, "deep calls unto deep."
00:09:36.355 --> 00:09:38.524
"deep calls unto deep." in other words,
00:09:38.591 --> 00:09:39.258
In other words, there are some --
00:09:39.325 --> 00:09:40.493
There are some -- there are some resources --
00:09:40.559 --> 00:09:42.628
There are some resources -- the deep pocket resources never
00:09:42.695 --> 00:09:45.598
The deep pocket resources never come to you until you
00:09:45.665 --> 00:09:46.732
Come to you until you get a big vision.
00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:49.368
Get a big vision. and it's not one you make up,
00:09:49.435 --> 00:09:50.670
And it's not one you make up, it's the one god gives you.
00:09:50.736 --> 00:09:54.006
It's the one god gives you. and -- but deep only
00:09:54.073 --> 00:09:55.007
And -- but deep only calls the deep.
00:09:55.074 --> 00:09:56.475
Calls the deep. some people just --
00:09:56.542 --> 00:09:58.678
Some people just -- they're not even interested
00:09:58.744 --> 00:10:00.279
They're not even interested in your vision until
00:10:00.346 --> 00:10:02.014
In your vision until it's big enough for their world
00:10:02.081 --> 00:10:03.983
It's big enough for their world and their finances.
00:10:04.050 --> 00:10:06.485
And their finances. hallelujah.
00:10:06.552 --> 00:10:07.787
Hallelujah. so, dream big.
00:10:07.853 --> 00:10:09.121
So, dream big. hallelujah.
00:10:09.188 --> 00:10:09.822
Hallelujah. 'cause you serve a god who said,
00:10:09.889 --> 00:10:11.424
'cause you serve a god who said, "i can do exceedingly,
00:10:11.490 --> 00:10:13.125
"i can do exceedingly, abundantly --"
00:10:13.192 --> 00:10:14.627
Abundantly --" i'm preaching myself
00:10:14.694 --> 00:10:16.328
I'm preaching myself happy this morning.
00:10:16.395 --> 00:10:17.563
Happy this morning. "abundantly, above all that you
00:10:17.630 --> 00:10:21.033
"abundantly, above all that you could ask or even imagine."
00:10:21.100 --> 00:10:23.469
[applause]
00:10:23.869 --> 00:10:28.774
The last one is
00:10:31.310 --> 00:10:33.145
The last one is your present self.
00:10:33.212 --> 00:10:37.450
Your present self. you see, you feel --
00:10:37.516 --> 00:10:39.185
You see, you feel -- have you ever noticed
00:10:39.251 --> 00:10:39.985
Have you ever noticed that when god gives you
00:10:40.052 --> 00:10:40.786
That when god gives you a vision you feel like,
00:10:40.853 --> 00:10:44.256
A vision you feel like, sometimes, you biggest
00:10:44.323 --> 00:10:45.224
Sometimes, you biggest obstacle is yourself?
00:10:45.291 --> 00:10:47.093
Obstacle is yourself? the devil hasn't got as much
00:10:47.159 --> 00:10:48.794
The devil hasn't got as much to do with stuff sometimes
00:10:48.861 --> 00:10:50.730
To do with stuff sometimes as your present self.
00:10:50.796 --> 00:10:53.699
As your present self. when you see what god says,
00:10:53.766 --> 00:10:56.869
When you see what god says, you will always be
00:10:56.936 --> 00:10:59.171
You will always be somebody better in the vision
00:10:59.238 --> 00:11:01.674
Somebody better in the vision than you are right now.
00:11:01.741 --> 00:11:03.275
Than you are right now. it'll be beyond you,
00:11:03.342 --> 00:11:05.711
It'll be beyond you, it'll be bigger than you
00:11:05.778 --> 00:11:07.179
It'll be bigger than you think you're capable of,
00:11:07.246 --> 00:11:08.748
Think you're capable of, and so if you're not careful
00:11:08.814 --> 00:11:10.216
And so if you're not careful your present self will talk
00:11:10.282 --> 00:11:12.118
Your present self will talk you out of your future self.
00:11:12.184 --> 00:11:17.690
You out of your future self. when god releases vision
00:11:17.757 --> 00:11:19.859
When god releases vision to someone,
00:11:19.925 --> 00:11:23.262
To someone, by the time they get to it,
00:11:23.329 --> 00:11:25.431
By the time they get to it, they're going
00:11:25.498 --> 00:11:26.198
They're going to be somebody else.
00:11:26.265 --> 00:11:30.436
To be somebody else. when the vision came to abraham,
00:11:30.503 --> 00:11:32.972
When the vision came to abraham, his name was abram,
00:11:33.038 --> 00:11:34.807
His name was abram, god gave him a vision.
00:11:34.874 --> 00:11:37.243
God gave him a vision. but by the time
00:11:37.309 --> 00:11:38.611
But by the time that it manifests,
00:11:38.677 --> 00:11:40.980
That it manifests, god said,
00:11:41.046 --> 00:11:42.248
God said, "now your name is abraham,
00:11:42.314 --> 00:11:44.350
"now your name is abraham, father of many."
00:11:44.416 --> 00:11:47.820
Father of many." he started out his present self,
00:11:47.887 --> 00:11:51.157
He started out his present self, but god said,
00:11:51.223 --> 00:11:52.324
But god said, "i'm gonna make you into the man
00:11:52.391 --> 00:11:54.460
"i'm gonna make you into the man that can handle everything
00:11:54.527 --> 00:11:55.728
That can handle everything that i want
00:11:55.795 --> 00:11:56.495
That i want to do in your life."
00:11:56.562 --> 00:11:59.765
To do in your life." when the word and the vision
00:11:59.832 --> 00:12:02.501
When the word and the vision comes to jacob
00:12:02.568 --> 00:12:04.003
Comes to jacob and he sees god's blessing
00:12:04.069 --> 00:12:06.338
And he sees god's blessing on his life,
00:12:06.405 --> 00:12:07.406
On his life, his name is jacob
00:12:07.473 --> 00:12:08.641
His name is jacob which means liar,
00:12:08.707 --> 00:12:10.376
Which means liar, and swindler,
00:12:10.442 --> 00:12:11.377
And swindler, and cheat,
00:12:11.443 --> 00:12:12.144
And cheat, and it literally means worm,
00:12:12.211 --> 00:12:13.913
And it literally means worm, if you look it up.
00:12:13.979 --> 00:12:15.981
If you look it up. but that was his present self.
00:12:16.048 --> 00:12:18.050
But that was his present self. his future self,
00:12:18.117 --> 00:12:19.285
His future self, by the time he's standing
00:12:19.351 --> 00:12:20.152
By the time he's standing in the vision,
00:12:20.219 --> 00:12:21.187
In the vision, his name is israel,

This is amazing, watch this. in genesis 13:14,
00:15:02.548 --> 00:15:04.116
In genesis 13:14, god says to abraham,
00:15:04.183 --> 00:15:07.052
God says to abraham, he says,
00:15:07.119 --> 00:15:07.686
He says, "and the lord god
00:15:07.753 --> 00:15:08.554
"and the lord god said unto abraham,"
00:15:08.620 --> 00:15:11.924
Said unto abraham," i've separated lot from you,
00:15:11.991 --> 00:15:13.625
I've separated lot from you, and he says,
00:15:13.692 --> 00:15:14.460
And he says, listen to these words,
00:15:14.526 --> 00:15:15.561
Listen to these words, "lift your eyes now
00:15:15.627 --> 00:15:19.164
"lift your eyes now and look from the place
00:15:19.231 --> 00:15:21.000

"lift up your eyes and look from the place where you are."
00:15:30.142 --> 00:15:31.977
From the place where you are." some of you have settled
00:15:32.044 --> 00:15:33.012
Some of you have settled where you are,
00:15:33.078 --> 00:15:34.813
Where you are, you've lost vision,
00:15:34.880 --> 00:15:36.281
You've lost vision, you're not dreaming of anything,
00:15:36.348 --> 00:15:38.617
You're not dreaming of anything, you're not singing anything,
00:15:38.684 --> 00:15:40.319
You're not singing anything, you're just existing.
00:15:40.386 --> 00:15:41.587
You're just existing. and the lord said to him,

And look from the place where you are,
00:15:46.859 --> 00:15:47.860
Where you are, northward, southward,

Northward, southward, eastward, westward,
00:15:49.094 --> 00:15:50.462

00:15:57.836 --> 00:16:01.073
[applause]
00:16:02.574 --> 00:16:06.111
Don't get so focused
00:16:06.512 --> 00:16:08.380
Don't get so focused on your circumstances,
00:16:08.447 --> 00:16:10.449
On your circumstances, your resources,
00:16:10.516 --> 00:16:12.117
Your resources, and your present self
00:16:12.184 --> 00:16:13.619
And your present self that you lose focus.
00:16:13.685 --> 00:16:14.753
That you lose focus. lift up your eyes,
00:16:14.820 --> 00:16:17.289
Lift up your eyes, and all that you can see,
00:16:17.356 --> 00:16:19.525
And all that you can see, if you can see it,
00:16:19.591 --> 00:16:21.493
If you can see it, i can give it to you.
00:16:21.560 --> 00:16:28.534
I can give it to you. now look at verse 17,
00:16:28.600 --> 00:16:29.935
Now look at verse 17, it's unbelievable.
00:16:30.002 --> 00:16:32.271
It's unbelievable. he says, "arise,
00:16:32.337 --> 00:16:36.308
He says, "arise, walk through the land
00:16:36.375 --> 00:16:39.611
Walk through the land it's length and width
00:16:39.678 --> 00:16:42.915
It's length and width for i will give it to you."
00:16:42.981 --> 00:16:47.186
For i will give it to you." notice that all the land had
00:16:47.252 --> 00:16:50.389
Notice that all the land had been given to abraham
00:16:50.456 --> 00:16:51.857
Been given to abraham just like god said.
00:16:51.924 --> 00:16:53.158
Just like god said. "in any and every direction that
00:16:53.225 --> 00:16:55.194
"in any and every direction that you can walk and you can see it,
00:16:55.260 --> 00:16:59.531
You can walk and you can see it, i will give it to you."
00:16:59.598 --> 00:17:01.934
I will give it to you." but the day you stop walking,
00:17:02.000 --> 00:17:04.002
But the day you stop walking, and the day you stop seeing it
00:17:04.069 --> 00:17:06.371
And the day you stop seeing it is the day that you
00:17:06.438 --> 00:17:07.339
Is the day that you just built the boundaries
00:17:07.406 --> 00:17:09.241
Just built the boundaries on what i'll do.
00:17:09.308 --> 00:17:14.113
On what i'll do. because if it's all yours
00:17:14.179 --> 00:17:17.349
Because if it's all yours it doesn't really matter
00:17:17.416 --> 00:17:18.584
It doesn't really matter which direction you start.
00:17:18.650 --> 00:17:24.990
Which direction you start. i love to preach like this.
00:17:25.057 --> 00:17:28.060
I love to preach like this. i wanna scream
00:17:28.127 --> 00:17:28.794
I wanna scream it at the young people.
00:17:28.861 --> 00:17:31.997
It at the young people. the only regrets i've got in
00:17:32.064 --> 00:17:33.332
The only regrets i've got in life is i didn't dream bigger.
00:17:33.398 --> 00:17:36.535
Life is i didn't dream bigger. i just believe anything
00:17:36.602 --> 00:17:37.703
I just believe anything that i could believe god
00:17:37.769 --> 00:17:39.805
That i could believe god for he could do it.
00:17:39.872 --> 00:17:41.473
For he could do it. if it's about souls,
00:17:41.540 --> 00:17:42.641
If it's about souls, if it's about helping people.
00:17:42.708 --> 00:17:44.343
If it's about helping people. see, please understand this,
00:17:44.409 --> 00:17:46.445
See, please understand this, god gave joseph a dream.
00:17:46.512 --> 00:17:47.846
God gave joseph a dream. this is the most important
00:17:47.913 --> 00:17:49.348
This is the most important thing to understand.
00:17:49.414 --> 00:17:50.649
Thing to understand. and we only hear about one dream
00:17:50.716 --> 00:17:52.684
And we only hear about one dream but god gave joseph a dream,
00:17:52.751 --> 00:17:55.320
But god gave joseph a dream, and when he gave him the dream,
00:17:55.387 --> 00:17:56.255
And when he gave him the dream, the first part of the dream --
00:17:56.321 --> 00:17:58.690
The first part of the dream -- the first dream --
00:17:58.757 --> 00:17:59.491
The first dream -- he gave him two dreams,
00:17:59.558 --> 00:18:00.225
He gave him two dreams, the first dream was
00:18:00.292 --> 00:18:01.627
The first dream was an earthly dream.
00:18:01.693 --> 00:18:03.662
An earthly dream. and he saw a field that --
00:18:03.729 --> 00:18:07.099
And he saw a field that -- in the field the harvest was
00:18:07.166 --> 00:18:09.067
In the field the harvest was bending over and bowing to it.
00:18:09.134 --> 00:18:12.638
Bending over and bowing to it. that's an earthly dream.
00:18:12.704 --> 00:18:15.340
That's an earthly dream. and god can give you authority
00:18:15.407 --> 00:18:17.109
And god can give you authority and dominion in the earth,
00:18:17.176 --> 00:18:20.579
And dominion in the earth, but that's not the total dream.
00:18:20.646 --> 00:18:23.215
But that's not the total dream. then the next part of the bible
00:18:23.282 --> 00:18:25.117
Then the next part of the bible said that he saw a second dream
00:18:25.184 --> 00:18:27.619
Said that he saw a second dream and he saw, watch this,
00:18:27.686 --> 00:18:29.321
And he saw, watch this, a heavenly dream.
00:18:29.388 --> 00:18:31.123
A heavenly dream. the sun, the moon,
00:18:31.190 --> 00:18:32.157
The sun, the moon, and the stars bowing down.
00:18:32.224 --> 00:18:35.761
And the stars bowing down. see, god when he gives a dream
00:18:35.827 --> 00:18:38.397
See, god when he gives a dream to somebody it has effects
