An encouraging message
00:00:02.121 --> 00:00:03.989
From pastor steven furtick
00:00:04.089 --> 00:00:05.557
Of elevation church.
00:00:05.657 --> 00:00:06.959
If you're looking
00:00:07.059 --> 00:00:07.526
To strengthen your faith
00:00:07.626 --> 00:00:08.560
And shift your perspective,
00:00:08.660 --> 00:00:10.029
Stay tuned.
00:00:10.129 --> 00:00:10.462
♪ ♪
00:00:10.929 --> 00:00:14.767
>> this new year's message
00:00:15.634 --> 00:00:17.036
>> this new year's message is not the shoutiest
00:00:17.102 --> 00:00:17.936
Is not the shoutiest new year's message
00:00:18.003 --> 00:00:18.904
New year's message but i think it could be
00:00:18.971 --> 00:00:19.671
But i think it could be a sustaining one for you.
00:00:19.738 --> 00:00:22.841
A sustaining one for you. if you make a subtle shift
00:00:22.908 --> 00:00:25.878
If you make a subtle shift and if the first point of
00:00:25.944 --> 00:00:27.379
And if the first point of this sermon is remain in hope
00:00:27.446 --> 00:00:29.515
This sermon is remain in hope but leave room for
00:00:29.581 --> 00:00:30.082
But leave room for disappointment
00:00:30.149 --> 00:00:31.450
Disappointment because there will
00:00:31.517 --> 00:00:32.051
Because there will always be a fight
00:00:32.117 --> 00:00:33.685
Always be a fight and there will always be fruit,
00:00:33.752 --> 00:00:35.888
And there will always be fruit, and sometimes you have to really
00:00:35.954 --> 00:00:38.123
And sometimes you have to really allow the fight to take
00:00:38.190 --> 00:00:39.258
Allow the fight to take its course to see
00:00:39.324 --> 00:00:40.025
Its course to see the fruit come forth.
00:00:40.092 --> 00:00:41.193
The fruit come forth. if the first word is remain,
00:00:41.260 --> 00:00:43.462
If the first word is remain, the second thing i want you
00:00:43.529 --> 00:00:44.763
The second thing i want you to do this year is reduce.
00:00:44.830 --> 00:00:49.301
To do this year is reduce. reduce.
00:00:49.368 --> 00:00:52.337
Reduce. and again, this is not
00:00:52.404 --> 00:00:52.971
And again, this is not a weight loss seminar,
00:00:53.038 --> 00:00:55.374
A weight loss seminar, and i know that reduce is not
00:00:55.441 --> 00:00:57.076
And i know that reduce is not a juicy new year's word,
00:00:57.142 --> 00:01:00.546
A juicy new year's word, and i know that we want god
00:01:00.612 --> 00:01:01.313
And i know that we want god to add to our lives,
00:01:01.380 --> 00:01:02.648
To add to our lives, and you should.
00:01:02.714 --> 00:01:03.982
And you should. i want you to have
00:01:04.049 --> 00:01:04.750
I want you to have more influence,
00:01:04.817 --> 00:01:06.285
More influence, i want you to have
00:01:06.351 --> 00:01:07.086
I want you to have more happy moments.
00:01:07.152 --> 00:01:08.720
More happy moments. i want you to have
00:01:08.787 --> 00:01:09.388
I want you to have more laughter.
00:01:09.455 --> 00:01:10.956
More laughter. i want you to have
00:01:11.023 --> 00:01:11.757
I want you to have more peaceful sleep at night,
00:01:11.824 --> 00:01:13.625
More peaceful sleep at night, more hours of sleep.
00:01:13.692 --> 00:01:15.194
More hours of sleep. i want you to be able
00:01:15.260 --> 00:01:16.128
I want you to be able to see more places
00:01:16.195 --> 00:01:17.062
To see more places and create more opportunities
00:01:17.129 --> 00:01:19.698
And create more opportunities for others and yourself,
00:01:19.765 --> 00:01:22.134
For others and yourself, but at the same time
00:01:22.201 --> 00:01:23.001
But at the same time i want you to experience more.
00:01:23.068 --> 00:01:26.672
I want you to experience more. i wanna point out to you
00:01:26.738 --> 00:01:29.007
I wanna point out to you that in the text i read
00:01:29.074 --> 00:01:31.510
That in the text i read god did not say anything
00:01:31.577 --> 00:01:33.512
God did not say anything to israel about years.
00:01:33.579 --> 00:01:40.052
To israel about years. in isaiah 27:1 he says,
00:01:40.119 --> 00:01:44.156
In isaiah 27:1 he says, "in that day."
00:01:44.223 --> 00:01:47.326
"in that day." verse 2, "in that day."
00:01:47.392 --> 00:01:51.763
Verse 2, "in that day." verse 6, "in days to come."
00:01:51.830 --> 00:01:57.302
Verse 6, "in days to come." and, i wonder, are we stressed,
00:01:57.369 --> 00:02:00.305
And, i wonder, are we stressed, discouraged, defeated,
00:02:00.372 --> 00:02:02.875
Discouraged, defeated, and lacking momentum
00:02:02.941 --> 00:02:04.243
And lacking momentum and victory in our life,
00:02:04.309 --> 00:02:06.712
And victory in our life, because when i said,
00:02:06.778 --> 00:02:08.247
Because when i said, "what are you gonna do
00:02:08.313 --> 00:02:09.148
"what are you gonna do with your 24?"
00:02:09.214 --> 00:02:11.049
With your 24?" you thought years.
00:02:11.116 --> 00:02:14.353
You thought years. the real answer to the question,
00:02:14.419 --> 00:02:15.821
The real answer to the question, "what will you do
00:02:15.888 --> 00:02:16.688
"what will you do with your 24?"
00:02:16.755 --> 00:02:18.657
With your 24?" is not about
00:02:18.724 --> 00:02:19.358
Is not about a year called 24,
00:02:19.424 --> 00:02:22.361
A year called 24, it's about this is
00:02:22.427 --> 00:02:23.562
It's about this is the day the lord has made.
00:02:23.629 --> 00:02:28.033
The day the lord has made. when i woke up this morning
00:02:28.100 --> 00:02:29.902
When i woke up this morning i had 24 hours of opportunity
00:02:29.968 --> 00:02:33.572
I had 24 hours of opportunity deposited into my account.
00:02:33.639 --> 00:02:36.708
Deposited into my account. and i can sit here with you
00:02:36.775 --> 00:02:37.709
And i can sit here with you and dream about
00:02:37.776 --> 00:02:38.944
And dream about all of the amazing things
00:02:39.011 --> 00:02:40.479
All of the amazing things i'm gonna accomplish
00:02:40.546 --> 00:02:41.113
I'm gonna accomplish for god this year.
00:02:41.180 --> 00:02:42.915
For god this year. i could sit here
00:02:42.981 --> 00:02:43.549
I could sit here and advertise to you
00:02:43.615 --> 00:02:45.250
And advertise to you all of the amazing possibilities
00:02:45.317 --> 00:02:47.486
All of the amazing possibilities that could happen in your life
00:02:47.553 --> 00:02:48.787
That could happen in your life this year, more in 24,
00:02:48.854 --> 00:02:51.356
This year, more in 24, leave the shore in 24,
00:02:51.423 --> 00:02:53.058
Leave the shore in 24, strengthen your core in 24.
00:02:53.125 --> 00:02:55.294
Strengthen your core in 24. and all of that
00:02:55.360 --> 00:02:56.228
And all of that that i say about 24
00:02:56.295 --> 00:02:57.896
That i say about 24 is wonderful and abstract,
00:02:57.963 --> 00:03:00.332
Is wonderful and abstract, but it falls into
00:03:00.399 --> 00:03:01.366
But it falls into the category of "one day when."
00:03:01.433 --> 00:03:06.138
The category of "one day when." so 'round about june
00:03:06.205 --> 00:03:07.673
So 'round about june i'm gonna have my beach body.
00:03:07.739 --> 00:03:09.775
I'm gonna have my beach body. so round about december
00:03:09.841 --> 00:03:11.410
So round about december i'm gonna have some of
00:03:11.476 --> 00:03:12.244
I'm gonna have some of these debts paid off.
00:03:12.311 --> 00:03:13.812
These debts paid off. so 'round about three years
00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:15.247
So 'round about three years from now my family's
00:03:15.314 --> 00:03:16.348
From now my family's gonna be back together.
00:03:16.415 --> 00:03:17.616
Gonna be back together. 'round about ten years
00:03:17.683 --> 00:03:18.717
'round about ten years from now my kids
00:03:18.784 --> 00:03:19.451
From now my kids are going to college.
00:03:19.518 --> 00:03:20.552
Are going to college. i believe in long term vision.
00:03:20.619 --> 00:03:22.521
I believe in long term vision. i think it's all amazing,
00:03:22.588 --> 00:03:23.755
I think it's all amazing, but i think this one day
00:03:23.822 --> 00:03:25.591
But i think this one day when can be a trap
00:03:25.657 --> 00:03:30.729
When can be a trap to keep you focused so much
00:03:30.796 --> 00:03:33.232
To keep you focused so much on the years that you don't
00:03:33.298 --> 00:03:36.201
On the years that you don't do with the days what you
00:03:36.268 --> 00:03:38.637
Do with the days what you could do with the days.
00:03:38.704 --> 00:03:39.771
[applause]
00:03:40.038 --> 00:03:41.273
Isn't this what jesus said?
00:03:41.940 --> 00:03:44.042
Isn't this what jesus said? "why do you worry
00:03:44.109 --> 00:03:44.910
"why do you worry about tomorrow?
00:03:44.977 --> 00:03:47.012
About tomorrow? tomorrow has enough
00:03:47.079 --> 00:03:48.413
Tomorrow has enough trouble of its own."
00:03:48.480 --> 00:03:50.449
Trouble of its own." let me ask you a question
00:03:50.515 --> 00:03:51.683
Let me ask you a question if you're anxious,
00:03:51.750 --> 00:03:52.918
If you're anxious, are you anxious about today
00:03:52.985 --> 00:03:54.653
Are you anxious about today or are you anxious
00:03:54.720 --> 00:03:55.487
Or are you anxious about wednesday?
00:03:55.554 --> 00:03:56.922
About wednesday? or are you anxious
00:03:56.989 --> 00:03:57.656
Or are you anxious about wednesday
00:03:57.723 --> 00:03:58.523
About wednesday three weeks from now?
00:03:58.590 --> 00:04:00.025
Three weeks from now? or are you anxious
00:04:00.092 --> 00:04:00.759
Or are you anxious about when you retire,
00:04:00.826 --> 00:04:02.160
About when you retire, when you're 75?
00:04:02.227 --> 00:04:03.528
When you're 75? you're 17, you've got time.
00:04:03.595 --> 00:04:06.565
You're 17, you've got time. there's days between
00:04:06.632 --> 00:04:07.899
There's days between here and there.
00:04:07.966 --> 00:04:11.470
Here and there. you know how much peace
00:04:11.536 --> 00:04:12.404
You know how much peace it'll bring you to recognize
00:04:12.471 --> 00:04:14.973
It'll bring you to recognize the revelation of a day?
00:04:15.040 --> 00:04:16.408
The revelation of a day? here's the revelation of a day,
00:04:16.475 --> 00:04:18.944
Here's the revelation of a day, that the grace for the day
00:04:19.011 --> 00:04:22.014
That the grace for the day is in the day.
00:04:22.080 --> 00:04:26.852
Is in the day. the grace for tomorrow
00:04:26.918 --> 00:04:27.819
The grace for tomorrow is not in today.
00:04:27.886 --> 00:04:32.324
Is not in today. the only thing that is
00:04:32.391 --> 00:04:33.725
The only thing that is in today for tomorrow
00:04:33.792 --> 00:04:34.626
In today for tomorrow for you is anxiety,
00:04:34.693 --> 00:04:35.294
For you is anxiety, if you don't put
00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:35.794
If you don't put it in god's hands.
00:04:35.861 --> 00:04:38.597
It in god's hands. and jesus said,
00:04:38.664 --> 00:04:39.197
And jesus said, "sufficient is the day,"
00:04:39.264 --> 00:04:42.467
"sufficient is the day," "give us this day our..."
00:04:42.534 --> 00:04:44.303
"give us this day our..." >> congregation: daily bread.
00:04:44.369 --> 00:04:45.470
>> congregation: daily bread. >> fifteen year bread.
00:04:45.537 --> 00:04:46.705
[laughter]
00:04:47.005 --> 00:04:47.639
He doesn't even pray
00:04:48.140 --> 00:04:48.674
He doesn't even pray for 12 months of bread.
00:04:48.740 --> 00:04:50.776
For 12 months of bread. i'm saying have a plan,
00:04:50.842 --> 00:04:52.577
I'm saying have a plan, i'm saying have a strategy,
00:04:52.644 --> 00:04:54.546
I'm saying have a strategy, i'm saying have
00:04:54.613 --> 00:04:55.380
I'm saying have a financial advisor,
00:04:55.447 --> 00:04:57.215
A financial advisor, but you gotta do that today.
00:04:57.282 --> 00:05:00.585
But you gotta do that today. and waiting on a time --
00:05:00.652 --> 00:05:01.987
And waiting on a time -- do you remember when we thought
00:05:02.054 --> 00:05:02.754
Do you remember when we thought there was no need to set up
00:05:02.821 --> 00:05:03.655
There was no need to set up online giving back in 2006
00:05:03.722 --> 00:05:05.257
Online giving back in 2006 'cause nobody was giving online?
00:05:05.324 --> 00:05:07.793
'cause nobody was giving online? but we had to set it up
00:05:07.859 --> 00:05:08.827
But we had to set it up that day for this day.
00:05:08.894 --> 00:05:12.664
That day for this day. now i think 93%
00:05:12.731 --> 00:05:14.132
Now i think 93% of giving is online, 98?
00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:16.735
Of giving is online, 98? 98%, from nothing to 98%.
00:05:16.802 --> 00:05:19.905
[applause]
00:05:20.205 --> 00:05:21.106
But there's something
00:05:21.373 --> 00:05:21.807
But there's something in your life like that
00:05:21.873 --> 00:05:23.108
In your life like that right now and you go,
00:05:23.175 --> 00:05:25.510
Right now and you go, "one day when i get more
00:05:25.577 --> 00:05:27.512
"one day when i get more money i'll learn to manage it."
00:05:27.579 --> 00:05:30.916
Money i'll learn to manage it." that is a syndrome that affects
00:05:30.982 --> 00:05:32.684
That is a syndrome that affects people of faith even more
00:05:32.751 --> 00:05:34.286
People of faith even more than it affects atheists.
00:05:34.353 --> 00:05:36.655
Than it affects atheists. because we will blame
00:05:36.722 --> 00:05:37.956
Because we will blame god for that.
00:05:38.023 --> 00:05:40.325
God for that. we'll say,
00:05:40.392 --> 00:05:40.992
We'll say, "i'm not doing it,
00:05:41.059 --> 00:05:41.693
"i'm not doing it, god's gonna do it."
00:05:41.760 --> 00:05:43.695
God's gonna do it." we'll say, "i don't need
00:05:43.762 --> 00:05:44.463
We'll say, "i don't need to take care of it
00:05:44.529 --> 00:05:45.197
To take care of it god's got me in his hands."
00:05:45.263 --> 00:05:47.332
God's got me in his hands." and he does,
00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:49.101
And he does, in that day the lord
00:05:49.167 --> 00:05:50.135
In that day the lord will fight leviathan,
00:05:50.202 --> 00:05:51.636
Will fight leviathan, but you and i have
00:05:51.703 --> 00:05:52.971
But you and i have a responsibility too.

00:11:48.993 --> 00:11:51.863
This is how i bear much fruit. this is what i'm doing...
00:11:51.930 --> 00:11:53.932
[applause]
00:11:54.199 --> 00:11:57.135
With my 24.
00:11:57.802 --> 00:12:00.972
With my 24. i was watching basketball
00:12:01.039 --> 00:12:02.273
I was watching basketball one time, ten years ago,
00:12:02.340 --> 00:12:05.076
One time, ten years ago, and the commentator
00:12:05.143 --> 00:12:06.277
And the commentator gave me a whole sermon.
00:12:06.344 --> 00:12:09.013
Gave me a whole sermon. the man shot the ball,
00:12:09.080 --> 00:12:10.348
The man shot the ball, there was like one second
00:12:10.415 --> 00:12:12.083
There was like one second left on the shot clock
00:12:12.150 --> 00:12:13.952
Left on the shot clock and the guy who shot he missed.
00:12:14.018 --> 00:12:16.621
And the guy who shot he missed. everybody say, "he missed."
00:12:16.688 --> 00:12:17.756
Everybody say, "he missed." >> congregation: he missed.
00:12:17.822 --> 00:12:19.190
>> congregation: he missed. >> but then it hit the backboard
00:12:19.257 --> 00:12:20.658
>> but then it hit the backboard and ten years ago in the nba,
00:12:20.725 --> 00:12:23.428
And ten years ago in the nba, if you got the offensive rebound
00:12:23.495 --> 00:12:25.363
If you got the offensive rebound after missing a shot,
00:12:25.430 --> 00:12:27.031
After missing a shot, the shot clock would
00:12:27.098 --> 00:12:28.099
The shot clock would reset to 24 seconds.
00:12:28.166 --> 00:12:31.870
Reset to 24 seconds. you don't get it.
00:12:31.936 --> 00:12:32.470
You don't get it. so, it means,
00:12:32.537 --> 00:12:33.605
So, it means, you missed that one...
00:12:33.671 --> 00:12:35.306
[cheering]
00:12:35.640 --> 00:12:37.475
But if you get that ball
00:12:38.276 --> 00:12:39.444
But if you get that ball back in your hands --
00:12:39.511 --> 00:12:42.046
Back in your hands -- i believe god brought
00:12:42.113 --> 00:12:42.947
I believe god brought somebody to church today
00:12:43.014 --> 00:12:45.683
Somebody to church today so you could get this ball
00:12:45.750 --> 00:12:47.118
So you could get this ball back in your hands.
00:12:47.185 --> 00:12:49.320
Back in your hands. i know you missed some
00:12:49.387 --> 00:12:50.388
I know you missed some in 23, but this is 24.
00:12:50.455 --> 00:12:55.827
In 23, but this is 24. somebody shout, "this is 24."
00:12:55.894 --> 00:12:57.962
Somebody shout, "this is 24." >> congregation: this is 24!
00:12:58.029 --> 00:12:59.297
>> congregation: this is 24! >> put in my youtube comments,

00:13:02.300 --> 00:13:03.401
Announce to your neighbor, "this is 24."
00:13:03.468 --> 00:13:04.736
"this is 24." this is 24.
00:13:04.803 --> 00:13:08.473
This is 24. and when he got the ball
00:13:08.540 --> 00:13:09.374
And when he got the ball back the announcer said,
00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:12.510
Back the announcer said, "he gets a new 24."
00:13:12.577 --> 00:13:14.712
[cheering]
00:13:15.079 --> 00:13:15.780
I thought i would announce
00:13:16.548 --> 00:13:17.615
I thought i would announce to somebody who came to church
00:13:17.682 --> 00:13:20.418
To somebody who came to church on the first sunday
00:13:20.485 --> 00:13:22.120
On the first sunday of the new year
00:13:22.187 --> 00:13:23.555
Of the new year which happens to be 2024.

He started you on your way, he clothed you
00:13:32.964 --> 00:13:34.065
He clothed you in your right mind,
00:13:34.132 --> 00:13:35.800
In your right mind, he gave you

00:13:38.536 --> 00:13:40.071

00:13:52.717 --> 00:13:54.252
[cheering]
00:13:54.552 --> 00:13:56.988
"in days to come."
00:14:02.460 --> 00:14:06.064

This thing down. i'm not drinking today.
00:14:08.199 --> 00:14:09.500
[cheering]
00:14:09.934 --> 00:14:11.636
I'm not looking at it today,

With them today. i'm not complaining
00:14:19.110 --> 00:14:19.911
I'm not complaining about it today
00:14:19.978 --> 00:14:22.814
About it today 'cause this is the day
00:14:22.881 --> 00:14:25.917
'cause this is the day the lord has made.
00:14:25.984 --> 00:14:30.054
The lord has made. maybe you can't even face
00:14:30.121 --> 00:14:31.589
Maybe you can't even face the day with confidence,
00:14:31.656 --> 00:14:34.025
The day with confidence, so let's break it
00:14:34.092 --> 00:14:34.659
So let's break it down a little more.
00:14:34.726 --> 00:14:36.227
Down a little more. say, "i got a new 24."
00:14:36.294 --> 00:14:37.695
Say, "i got a new 24." >> congregation: i got a new 24.

>> what if you opened your mouth on --
00:14:39.731 --> 00:14:40.698
Your mouth on -- when you wake up tomorrow
00:14:40.765 --> 00:14:41.866
When you wake up tomorrow and say, "thank you lord...
00:14:41.933 --> 00:14:43.401
And say, "thank you lord... >> congregation: thank you
00:14:43.468 --> 00:14:43.968

>> and you know what'd really frustrate the devil?
00:14:47.538 --> 00:14:48.373
Frustrate the devil? if you missed the last
00:14:48.439 --> 00:14:49.340
If you missed the last shot the last day,
00:14:49.407 --> 00:14:51.643
Shot the last day, if you really screwed it up
00:14:51.709 --> 00:14:53.611
If you really screwed it up the day before and you wake up
00:14:53.678 --> 00:14:56.114
The day before and you wake up and you see that
00:14:56.180 --> 00:14:56.648
And you see that shot clock in your life.
00:14:56.714 --> 00:14:58.082
Shot clock in your life. "ou, god must not be done
00:14:58.149 --> 00:14:59.918
"ou, god must not be done with me 'cause i got...
00:14:59.984 --> 00:15:01.986
[applause]
00:15:02.320 --> 00:15:02.987
A new 24."
00:15:03.788 --> 00:15:04.956
[applause and cheering]
00:15:05.456 --> 00:15:06.958

Yeah, i got a new 24 so i'm taking the shot today.
00:15:10.328 --> 00:15:12.730
So i'm taking the shot today. everything that i did
00:15:12.797 --> 00:15:13.731
Everything that i did that wasn't like god
00:15:13.798 --> 00:15:14.632
That wasn't like god is covered by
00:15:14.699 --> 00:15:15.199
Is covered by the blood of jesus.
00:15:15.266 --> 00:15:16.100
The blood of jesus. i got a new 24.
00:15:16.167 --> 00:15:19.404
I got a new 24. when he said in that day,
00:15:19.470 --> 00:15:20.471
When he said in that day, listen, when he said,
00:15:20.538 --> 00:15:21.539
Listen, when he said, "in that day,"
00:15:21.606 --> 00:15:23.408
"in that day," in that day,
00:15:23.474 --> 00:15:24.509
In that day, and then in verse 6
00:15:24.575 --> 00:15:25.143
And then in verse 6 he said, "in days to come,"
00:15:25.209 --> 00:15:27.412
He said, "in days to come," i realized the way were gonna be
00:15:27.478 --> 00:15:29.247
I realized the way were gonna be where we wanna be at the end
00:15:29.314 --> 00:15:30.515
Where we wanna be at the end of 24 is 24 at a time.
00:15:30.581 --> 00:15:34.052
[cheering and applause]
00:15:34.385 --> 00:15:42.760
I feel god on this message.
00:15:43.695 --> 00:15:46.230
I feel god on this message. i don't even wanna do
00:15:46.297 --> 00:15:46.998
I don't even wanna do my second two points
00:15:47.065 --> 00:15:47.966
My second two points 'cause i feel god right here.
00:15:48.032 --> 00:15:56.040
'cause i feel god right here. he left you here
00:15:56.107 --> 00:15:58.943
He left you here because there is fruit
00:15:59.010 --> 00:16:00.044
Because there is fruit still to come forth
00:16:00.111 --> 00:16:00.878
Still to come forth from your life,
00:16:00.945 --> 00:16:03.214
From your life, that's why you got a new 24.
00:16:03.281 --> 00:16:07.118
That's why you got a new 24. once in a while this year
00:16:07.185 --> 00:16:10.021
Once in a while this year you're gonna have
00:16:10.088 --> 00:16:10.455
You're gonna have one of those days,
00:16:10.521 --> 00:16:12.924
One of those days, not a bad hair day,
00:16:12.991 --> 00:16:13.725
Not a bad hair day, but an all hell breaks
00:16:13.791 --> 00:16:14.759
But an all hell breaks loose day and it's 7:30 am.
00:16:14.826 --> 00:16:18.563
Loose day and it's 7:30 am. so if you can't just
00:16:18.629 --> 00:16:19.263
So if you can't just break it down to the day,
00:16:19.330 --> 00:16:21.866
Break it down to the day, break it down to the breath.
00:16:21.933 --> 00:16:25.136
Break it down to the breath. next breath.
00:16:25.203 --> 00:16:27.939
Next breath. next breath.
00:16:28.006 --> 00:16:30.608
Next breath. he said, "israel will
00:16:30.675 --> 00:16:31.309
He said, "israel will bud and blossom
00:16:31.376 --> 00:16:31.876
Bud and blossom and bring forth fruit."
00:16:31.943 --> 00:16:33.177
And bring forth fruit." you know how you bring forth
00:16:33.244 --> 00:16:33.978
You know how you bring forth fruit and bud and blossom?
00:16:34.045 --> 00:16:35.380
Fruit and bud and blossom? one breath at a time.
00:16:35.446 --> 00:16:38.016
One breath at a time. you can take the next breath,
00:16:38.082 --> 00:16:40.251
You can take the next breath, and the next.
00:16:40.318 --> 00:16:43.087
And the next. i googled before i came
00:16:43.154 --> 00:16:44.288
I googled before i came how many breaths
00:16:44.355 --> 00:16:45.056
How many breaths does the average person
00:16:45.123 --> 00:16:45.823
Does the average person take in one day,
00:16:45.890 --> 00:16:47.992
Take in one day, it said between
00:16:48.059 --> 00:16:48.659
It said between 17,000 and 30,000.
00:16:48.726 --> 00:16:51.996
17,000 and 30,000. i figured somewhere
00:16:52.063 --> 00:16:52.764
I figured somewhere in the average is 24,000.
00:16:52.830 --> 00:16:57.468
In the average is 24,000. so look at me children of zion,
00:16:57.535 --> 00:17:00.171
So look at me children of zion, if 24 hours is too much
00:17:00.238 --> 00:17:01.439
If 24 hours is too much for you to face
00:17:01.506 --> 00:17:03.341
For you to face you got 24,000
00:17:03.408 --> 00:17:04.809
You got 24,000 breaths to reset.
00:17:04.876 --> 00:17:06.377
[applause]
00:17:06.677 --> 00:17:09.180
You know, i was praying --
00:17:09.580 --> 00:17:12.283
You know, i was praying -- i was praying one time
00:17:12.350 --> 00:17:13.251
I was praying one time before i preached,
00:17:13.317 --> 00:17:14.852
Before i preached, i prayed that that
00:17:14.919 --> 00:17:16.020
I prayed that that moment would be a reset.
00:17:16.087 --> 00:17:18.923
Moment would be a reset. everybody who came in the room
00:17:18.990 --> 00:17:20.058
Everybody who came in the room that day, all week long,
00:17:20.124 --> 00:17:22.126
That day, all week long, has just felt like,
00:17:22.193 --> 00:17:23.027
Has just felt like, "i can't breathe,
00:17:23.094 --> 00:17:25.229
"i can't breathe, i can't move.
00:17:25.296 --> 00:17:29.100
I can't move. i can't do it."
00:17:29.167 --> 00:17:29.734
I can't do it." and the lord says,
00:17:29.801 --> 00:17:31.769
And the lord says, "in that day."
00:17:31.836 --> 00:17:33.237
"in that day." it's amazing how we can be
00:17:33.304 --> 00:17:34.372
It's amazing how we can be in a day that god gave us
00:17:34.439 --> 00:17:36.774
In a day that god gave us and not recognize it as a gift.
00:17:36.841 --> 00:17:40.745
And not recognize it as a gift. do you ever notice that?
00:17:40.812 --> 00:17:43.081
Do you ever notice that? i guess that's my third
00:17:43.147 --> 00:17:44.148
I guess that's my third "r," recognize.
00:17:44.215 --> 00:17:48.219
"r," recognize. you better recognize.
00:17:48.286 --> 00:17:50.988
You better recognize. if you don't recognize it,
00:17:51.055 --> 00:17:51.656
If you don't recognize it, you'll regret it.
00:17:51.722 --> 00:17:53.825
You'll regret it. we went to atlanta
00:17:53.891 --> 00:17:55.226
We went to atlanta to watch graham wrestle
00:17:55.293 --> 00:17:56.194
To watch graham wrestle last weekend and it was
00:17:56.260 --> 00:17:57.028
Last weekend and it was so crowded in that gym.
00:17:57.095 --> 00:17:59.397
So crowded in that gym. and it was -- as a matter
00:17:59.464 --> 00:18:00.398
And it was -- as a matter of fact it was so wonderful
00:18:00.465 --> 00:18:02.133
Of fact it was so wonderful to watch him wrestle
00:18:02.200 --> 00:18:02.867
To watch him wrestle that i just looked at holly
00:18:02.934 --> 00:18:03.701
That i just looked at holly and i said, "one day we'll look
00:18:03.768 --> 00:18:05.703
And i said, "one day we'll look at these crowded gyms with
00:18:05.770 --> 00:18:08.473
At these crowded gyms with dirty, sweaty wrestling boys
00:18:08.539 --> 00:18:11.676
Dirty, sweaty wrestling boys filling the air with
00:18:11.742 --> 00:18:12.310
Filling the air with the fragrance of athleticism...
00:18:12.376 --> 00:18:13.878
[laughter]
00:18:14.378 --> 00:18:14.812
And kneepads
00:18:15.279 --> 00:18:15.847
And kneepads and wrestling shoes."
00:18:15.913 --> 00:18:19.684
And wrestling shoes." and looking all around i said,
00:18:19.750 --> 00:18:22.320
And looking all around i said, "we're gonna look back and say,
00:18:22.386 --> 00:18:24.388
"we're gonna look back and say, 'those were the days.'"
00:18:24.455 --> 00:18:28.159
'those were the days.'" so why not just shift it buck,
00:18:28.226 --> 00:18:30.428
So why not just shift it buck, and say it right
00:18:30.495 --> 00:18:30.928
And say it right when you're in it.
00:18:30.995 --> 00:18:33.164
When you're in it. these are the days.
00:18:33.231 --> 00:18:35.299
These are the days. somebody say,
00:18:35.366 --> 00:18:35.867
Somebody say, "this is that day."
00:18:35.933 --> 00:18:37.068
"this is that day." >> congregation: this is
00:18:37.135 --> 00:18:37.602
>> congregation: this is that day.
00:18:37.668 --> 00:18:38.302
That day. >> god brought you here,
00:18:38.369 --> 00:18:40.538
>> god brought you here, don't you ever let the pain
00:18:40.605 --> 00:18:41.739
Don't you ever let the pain or the pressure make you
00:18:41.806 --> 00:18:42.840
Or the pressure make you forfeit the grace of the day.
00:18:42.907 --> 00:18:47.178
Forfeit the grace of the day. that's why i stand
00:18:47.245 --> 00:18:48.012
That's why i stand here sometimes.
00:18:48.079 --> 00:18:48.412
Here sometimes. i'm not pausing right now
00:18:48.479 --> 00:18:49.247
I'm not pausing right now 'cause i don't know
00:18:49.313 --> 00:18:49.747
'cause i don't know what to say next,
00:18:49.814 --> 00:18:51.048
What to say next, i'm taking it in.
00:18:51.115 --> 00:18:53.484
I'm taking it in. this is the day,
00:18:53.551 --> 00:18:55.453
This is the day, this is that day.
00:18:55.520 --> 00:18:57.788
This is that day. you understand i prayed
00:18:57.855 --> 00:18:58.756
You understand i prayed that this church would happen.
00:18:58.823 --> 00:19:01.292
That this church would happen. god built this church.
00:19:01.359 --> 00:19:03.394
God built this church. to see this many
00:19:03.461 --> 00:19:04.095
To see this many people gathered,
00:19:04.162 --> 00:19:04.829
People gathered, to have this level
00:19:04.896 --> 00:19:05.730
To have this level of ministry influence,
00:19:05.796 --> 00:19:07.031
Of ministry influence, to be able to preach
00:19:07.098 --> 00:19:07.965
To be able to preach to your life is something
00:19:08.032 --> 00:19:09.233
To your life is something that i saw from age 16.
00:19:09.300 --> 00:19:10.968
That i saw from age 16. one day when,
00:19:11.035 --> 00:19:14.639
One day when, and then you're in it,
00:19:14.705 --> 00:19:16.574
And then you're in it, and you don't recognize it.
00:19:16.641 --> 00:19:18.943
And you don't recognize it. what i want you to
00:19:19.010 --> 00:19:19.544
What i want you to understand about every day
00:19:19.610 --> 00:19:20.912
Understand about every day you will have this year,
00:19:20.978 --> 00:19:21.879
You will have this year, and just 24 at a time.
00:19:21.946 --> 00:19:23.281
And just 24 at a time. i'm going deeper next week,
00:19:23.347 --> 00:19:24.415
I'm going deeper next week, i'm going deeper next week
00:19:24.482 --> 00:19:25.583
I'm going deeper next week because the lord is really
00:19:25.650 --> 00:19:26.617
Because the lord is really using this to penetrate
00:19:26.684 --> 00:19:28.119
Using this to penetrate somebody's worry,
00:19:28.186 --> 00:19:29.320
Somebody's worry, somebody's just out of balance
00:19:29.387 --> 00:19:31.155
Somebody's just out of balance and god is bringing you
00:19:31.222 --> 00:19:32.123
And god is bringing you back to it right now.
00:19:32.190 --> 00:19:33.624
Back to it right now. and by the way, this word
00:19:33.691 --> 00:19:34.926
And by the way, this word will not last you
00:19:34.992 --> 00:19:36.294
Will not last you till next january,
00:19:36.360 --> 00:19:39.530
Till next january, you need daily time
00:19:39.597 --> 00:19:41.999
You need daily time in the presence of god.
00:19:42.066 --> 00:19:44.168
In the presence of god. clap your hands about it.
00:19:44.235 --> 00:19:45.069
[applause]
00:19:45.336 --> 00:19:48.139
Yeah.
00:19:48.539 --> 00:19:49.273
[applause]
00:19:49.607 --> 00:19:51.108
Yeah, yeah.
00:19:51.742 --> 00:19:54.378
Yeah, yeah. so, we recognize these moments
00:19:54.445 --> 00:19:56.447
So, we recognize these moments when we're in them and we say,
00:19:56.514 --> 00:19:57.815
When we're in them and we say, "wait, this is that day."
00:19:57.882 --> 00:19:59.984
"wait, this is that day." now, it's hard to know it
00:20:00.051 --> 00:20:01.252
Now, it's hard to know it when you're in
00:20:01.319 --> 00:20:02.019
When you're in so that's why the fourth thing
00:20:02.086 --> 00:20:03.187
So that's why the fourth thing i wanna give you is to get
00:20:03.254 --> 00:20:05.356
I wanna give you is to get you to reframe it.
00:20:05.423 --> 00:20:09.393
You to reframe it. look at verse 6.
00:20:09.460 --> 00:20:11.362
Look at verse 6. i think this one was
00:20:11.429 --> 00:20:11.963
I think this one was the one that spoke to me
00:20:12.029 --> 00:20:13.998
The one that spoke to me the most of all of them
00:20:14.065 --> 00:20:15.866
The most of all of them because it sounds like
00:20:15.933 --> 00:20:16.901
Because it sounds like god is talking about
00:20:16.968 --> 00:20:17.802
God is talking about two different people
00:20:17.868 --> 00:20:19.537
Two different people and two different processes.
00:20:19.604 --> 00:20:21.706
And two different processes. thank you jesus.
00:20:21.772 --> 00:20:22.873
Thank you jesus. it sounds like he's talking
00:20:22.940 --> 00:20:23.874
It sounds like he's talking about two different people
00:20:23.941 --> 00:20:25.576
About two different people and two different processes,
00:20:25.643 --> 00:20:27.545
And two different processes, he says, "in days to come."
00:20:27.612 --> 00:20:30.014
He says, "in days to come." now we've gone from one day
00:20:30.081 --> 00:20:32.650
Now we've gone from one day to multiple days,
00:20:32.717 --> 00:20:34.485
To multiple days, from the present circumstance
00:20:34.552 --> 00:20:36.687
From the present circumstance to the future promise.
00:20:36.754 --> 00:20:38.756
To the future promise. "in days to come
00:20:38.823 --> 00:20:40.691
"in days to come jacob will take root,
00:20:40.758 --> 00:20:43.694
Jacob will take root, israel will bud and blossom
00:20:43.761 --> 00:20:45.363
Israel will bud and blossom and fill all the world
00:20:45.429 --> 00:20:46.097
And fill all the world with fruit."
00:20:46.163 --> 00:20:46.430
With fruit." now, he's talking
00:20:46.497 --> 00:20:46.831
Now, he's talking about the nation of israel
00:20:46.897 --> 00:20:48.633
About the nation of israel from whom the messiah came
00:20:48.699 --> 00:20:49.900
From whom the messiah came that blessed the whole world
00:20:49.967 --> 00:20:51.202
That blessed the whole world and took the gospel
00:20:51.269 --> 00:20:52.236
And took the gospel even to the gentiles.
00:20:52.303 --> 00:20:53.404
Even to the gentiles. that's what he's talking about,
00:20:53.471 --> 00:20:54.372
That's what he's talking about, he's talking about jesus.
00:20:54.438 --> 00:20:57.108
He's talking about jesus. but watch the application,
00:20:57.174 --> 00:20:58.376
But watch the application, he says, "jacob will take root,
00:20:58.442 --> 00:21:02.613
He says, "jacob will take root, israel will bud and blossom."
00:21:02.680 --> 00:21:06.550
Israel will bud and blossom." and you know what i'm learning
00:21:06.617 --> 00:21:07.385
And you know what i'm learning more and more about
00:21:07.451 --> 00:21:09.420
More and more about these years, and season,
00:21:09.487 --> 00:21:10.421
These years, and season, and paths that god gives us?
00:21:10.488 --> 00:21:14.792
And paths that god gives us? is that you're gonna have
00:21:14.859 --> 00:21:16.661
Is that you're gonna have both of those kinds of days
00:21:16.727 --> 00:21:19.497
Both of those kinds of days and you are gonna feel
00:21:19.563 --> 00:21:20.564
And you are gonna feel like both of those people.
00:21:20.631 --> 00:21:21.999
Like both of those people. see, jacob and israel
00:21:22.066 --> 00:21:24.602
See, jacob and israel are not two different people.
00:21:24.669 --> 00:21:27.471
Are not two different people. in the bible, a man named jacob
00:21:27.538 --> 00:21:30.441
In the bible, a man named jacob became the father of
00:21:30.508 --> 00:21:31.676
Became the father of the tribes that would be
00:21:31.742 --> 00:21:32.777
The tribes that would be the nation of israel,
00:21:32.843 --> 00:21:34.779
The nation of israel, and when god changed jacob,
00:21:34.845 --> 00:21:37.548
And when god changed jacob, he changed his name.
00:21:37.615 --> 00:21:39.717
He changed his name. he said, "you use
00:21:39.784 --> 00:21:40.284
He said, "you use to be called jacob,
00:21:40.351 --> 00:21:42.787
To be called jacob, but now your name is israel.
00:21:42.853 --> 00:21:45.823
But now your name is israel. jacob means deceiver,
00:21:45.890 --> 00:21:48.125
Jacob means deceiver, that's who jacob was.
00:21:48.192 --> 00:21:50.328
That's who jacob was. israel means prince with god,
00:21:50.394 --> 00:21:53.864
Israel means prince with god, because he struggled with god
00:21:53.931 --> 00:21:56.067
Because he struggled with god and with men and overcame.
00:21:56.133 --> 00:21:59.470
And with men and overcame. is that not a picture of what
00:21:59.537 --> 00:22:02.006
Is that not a picture of what it feels like to be you
00:22:02.073 --> 00:22:03.774
It feels like to be you in any one given day?
00:22:03.841 --> 00:22:07.178
In any one given day? doesn't it depend
00:22:07.244 --> 00:22:08.412
Doesn't it depend what somebody thinks of you
00:22:08.479 --> 00:22:09.714
What somebody thinks of you on what day they meet you on?
00:22:09.780 --> 00:22:13.050
On what day they meet you on? how many of you have jacob
00:22:13.117 --> 00:22:14.685
How many of you have jacob days that still happen
00:22:14.752 --> 00:22:15.820
Days that still happen in your life?
00:22:15.886 --> 00:22:17.922
In your life? is there one honest person
00:22:17.988 --> 00:22:20.257
Is there one honest person in the whole church?
00:22:20.324 --> 00:22:21.058
In the whole church? i need to zip up my jacket,
00:22:21.125 --> 00:22:22.360
I need to zip up my jacket, i feel exposed with
00:22:22.426 --> 00:22:23.461
I feel exposed with all a you fake people.
00:22:23.527 --> 00:22:24.829
[laughter]
00:22:25.096 --> 00:22:25.529
Have you ever had an israel
00:22:25.663 --> 00:22:27.231
Have you ever had an israel calling but a jacob day?
00:22:27.298 --> 00:22:28.733
[cheering]
00:22:28.999 --> 00:22:31.669
Where it just feels like
00:22:31.869 --> 00:22:32.536
Where it just feels like a total flashback,
00:22:32.603 --> 00:22:34.905
A total flashback, a total relapse,
00:22:34.972 --> 00:22:37.141
A total relapse, a new name,
00:22:37.208 --> 00:22:38.376
A new name, and a new nature.
00:22:38.442 --> 00:22:39.777
And a new nature. do not automatically
00:22:39.844 --> 00:22:40.945
Do not automatically give way to new habits.
00:22:41.011 --> 00:22:42.079
Give way to new habits. i want you to notice
00:22:42.146 --> 00:22:44.315
I want you to notice that he says,
00:22:44.382 --> 00:22:44.982
That he says, "jacob will take root,"
00:22:45.049 --> 00:22:48.185
"jacob will take root," verse 6,
00:22:48.252 --> 00:22:49.653
Verse 6, "israel will bud and blossom
00:22:49.720 --> 00:22:53.357
"israel will bud and blossom and fill the world
00:22:53.424 --> 00:22:54.225
And fill the world with fruit."
00:22:54.291 --> 00:22:56.026
With fruit." one of them is going down,
00:22:56.093 --> 00:23:00.431
One of them is going down, one of them is going up.
00:23:00.498 --> 00:23:04.301
One of them is going up. i will have some
00:23:04.368 --> 00:23:05.202
I will have some down days this year,
00:23:05.269 --> 00:23:07.671
Down days this year, i expect that just like
00:23:07.738 --> 00:23:09.507
I expect that just like i expect to be blessed.
00:23:09.573 --> 00:23:11.776
I expect to be blessed. i will have some days
00:23:11.842 --> 00:23:12.910
I will have some days where i can barely
00:23:12.977 --> 00:23:13.978
Where i can barely get out of the bed,
00:23:14.044 --> 00:23:15.346
Get out of the bed, in fact, some of us
00:23:15.413 --> 00:23:16.747
In fact, some of us might've already had one
00:23:16.814 --> 00:23:18.382
Might've already had one and we're just getting
00:23:18.449 --> 00:23:19.417
And we're just getting this wonderful year started.
00:23:19.483 --> 00:23:21.285
[laughter]
00:23:21.619 --> 00:23:21.819
I will have some down days
00:23:22.553 --> 00:23:24.722
I will have some down days where i can't find one thing
00:23:24.789 --> 00:23:26.390
Where i can't find one thing to feel good about,
00:23:26.457 --> 00:23:28.592
To feel good about, but i will not allow
00:23:28.659 --> 00:23:29.927
But i will not allow the down days to define me
00:23:29.994 --> 00:23:33.164
The down days to define me anymore past this point.
00:23:33.230 --> 00:23:35.900
Anymore past this point. let it be written,
00:23:35.966 --> 00:23:37.334
Let it be written, let it be done,
00:23:37.401 --> 00:23:38.669
Let it be done, forever and ever amen.

I wanna share with you one of my husband's
00:23:44.975 --> 00:23:45.709
One of my husband's most practical,
00:23:45.776 --> 00:23:46.877
Most practical, helpful series that
00:23:46.944 --> 00:23:48.345
Helpful series that i think he's ever done.
00:23:48.412 --> 00:23:49.847
I think he's ever done. you don't have to stay
