00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.920
Welcome to Supernatural Saturday.

2
00:00:04.920 --> 00:00:07.640
If you are new, welcome.

3
00:00:07.640 --> 00:00:11.280
We're so glad that you're with us and I am on location today.

4
00:00:11.280 --> 00:00:19.180
I am in Las Vegas, Nevada and I'm here for some business stuff to further our movement

5
00:00:19.180 --> 00:00:24.640
and I just want to let you guys know that God is on the move.

6
00:00:24.640 --> 00:00:26.520
God is on the move.

7
00:00:26.520 --> 00:00:30.680
If you think that God's not doing anything because you can't see it doesn't mean it's

8
00:00:30.680 --> 00:00:31.680
not happening.

9
00:00:31.680 --> 00:00:36.560
I want to encourage you of that this morning in your own lives.

10
00:00:36.560 --> 00:00:41.600
Just because you can't see it does not mean it's not happening.

11
00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:46.480
I want you to go ahead and grab a hold of that this morning.

12
00:00:46.480 --> 00:00:51.480
That is the truth that every farmer had to learn pretty early on, right?

13
00:00:51.480 --> 00:00:55.240
They put the seed in the ground, they can't see it anymore.

14
00:00:55.240 --> 00:01:00.120
The seed is in the ground and now they just have to trust the process.

15
00:01:00.120 --> 00:01:04.800
They have to trust that that seed has life in it and that if they do what they need to

16
00:01:04.800 --> 00:01:11.000
do which is plant it and water it, it's going to grow.

17
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:14.840
And it doesn't happen right away, does it?

18
00:01:14.840 --> 00:01:22.440
I guess there's probably some sort of period of time where one may wonder if the seed was

19
00:01:22.440 --> 00:01:27.840
any good and whether or not it's going to do what it's supposed to do.

20
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:34.560
But then there's that day that you come out and there's that little teeny tiny green poking

21
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:36.680
up out of the ground.

22
00:01:36.680 --> 00:01:39.720
Anyone ever plant anything?

23
00:01:39.720 --> 00:01:42.880
There's a teeny tiny little bit of green poking up out of the ground.

24
00:01:42.880 --> 00:01:50.600
You're like, yes, yes, the process, it's working.

25
00:01:50.600 --> 00:01:53.600
Everything's alive here.

26
00:01:53.600 --> 00:01:59.600
And then you watch and it grows and it grows and it grows and it grows.

27
00:01:59.600 --> 00:02:06.440
And then if the conditions are right, it continues to grow until it flowers, until it fruits,

28
00:02:06.440 --> 00:02:12.640
and until it gives you what it is that you were expecting and even more, hopefully.

29
00:02:12.640 --> 00:02:16.860
That's the process that all of us are in at some point in our lives with something in

30
00:02:16.860 --> 00:02:21.980
our lives where we're just trust in the process.

31
00:02:21.980 --> 00:02:25.700
God's word is in us, that's the seed.

32
00:02:25.700 --> 00:02:26.700
And we're just trust in the process.

33
00:02:26.700 --> 00:02:33.660
But friends, I just want to let you know something, it's not about becoming something, right?

34
00:02:33.660 --> 00:02:36.580
God already wrote a story about you, he wrote a story about me.

35
00:02:36.580 --> 00:02:42.300
Go read Psalm 139 and read about the book of you.

36
00:02:42.300 --> 00:02:44.020
You guys, it's an amazing story.

37
00:02:44.020 --> 00:02:46.140
It's full of prosperity.

38
00:02:46.420 --> 00:02:47.420
And I don't just mean money.

39
00:02:47.420 --> 00:02:55.940
I mean, prosperity, prospering as your soul prospers, full of good things, full of adventure.

40
00:02:55.940 --> 00:02:59.020
God doesn't write boring stories.

41
00:02:59.020 --> 00:03:00.020
That's what it's full of.

42
00:03:00.020 --> 00:03:05.900
But a lot of us never make it into that story because we're still living in the pages that

43
00:03:05.900 --> 00:03:09.900
shame wrote and trauma wrote and brokenness wrote.

44
00:03:09.900 --> 00:03:15.020
And so it's not about, it's not about becoming because we already are that.

45
00:03:15.020 --> 00:03:16.980
And that's what phase one of this program is about.

46
00:03:16.980 --> 00:03:17.980
It's about heart work.

47
00:03:17.980 --> 00:03:22.260
It's about pulling back all the counterfeit layers that are keeping you from being the

48
00:03:22.260 --> 00:03:29.420
person that God created you to be and living the story that God wrote for you.

49
00:03:29.420 --> 00:03:30.420
Not predestination.

50
00:03:30.420 --> 00:03:34.920
It's kind of like if you remember, if you're from the generation that remembers those choose

51
00:03:34.920 --> 00:03:40.460
your own adventure books, you know, every couple of pages you get to make a choice.

52
00:03:40.460 --> 00:03:43.220
God does have a desired outcome for you.

53
00:03:43.220 --> 00:03:47.020
Just put your hand on your chest and say that to yourself, God has a desired outcome

54
00:03:47.020 --> 00:03:48.020
for me.

55
00:03:48.020 --> 00:03:53.420
Jeremiah 29 11 tells us that God has many plans for us, not just one.

56
00:03:53.420 --> 00:03:57.180
He understands that we're not always going to make the decision that's best suited for

57
00:03:57.180 --> 00:03:59.100
us.

58
00:03:59.100 --> 00:04:00.580
He wants us to have free will.

59
00:04:00.580 --> 00:04:06.620
He wants us to have choice, but because he is a good God, because he is a good father,

60
00:04:06.620 --> 00:04:13.220
he continues to put us into proximity to the right path, to the good road.

61
00:04:13.220 --> 00:04:23.460
Jeremiah is it just kind of flew out of my head just now, 6 16, the good path, the good

62
00:04:23.460 --> 00:04:27.020
road, the ancient of days has ancient ways.

63
00:04:27.020 --> 00:04:31.180
You guys, it's all about coming back to a place of surrender.

64
00:04:31.180 --> 00:04:35.300
It's all about coming back to a place where, you know, if we don't like the path that we're

65
00:04:35.300 --> 00:04:39.460
on now, sometimes you're going to be on the right path and you're not going to like it.

66
00:04:39.460 --> 00:04:40.700
It is true.

67
00:04:40.700 --> 00:04:43.500
There's going to be hard bits.

68
00:04:43.500 --> 00:04:44.500
It's not a smooth path.

69
00:04:44.500 --> 00:04:46.820
It's not a paved super highway.

70
00:04:46.820 --> 00:04:48.180
Okay.

71
00:04:48.180 --> 00:04:49.720
It might have some detours.

72
00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:50.720
It might have some stops.

73
00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:53.460
It might have some potholes.

74
00:04:53.460 --> 00:04:54.460
That's true.

75
00:04:54.460 --> 00:04:59.340
But if you think that you're not on the right path, let me tell you something about pain

76
00:04:59.340 --> 00:05:00.060
that's really important.

77
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:02.720
and for you to know, it's supposed to be temporary.

78
00:05:05.080 --> 00:05:07.280
If you're writing stuff down, write that down.

79
00:05:07.280 --> 00:05:09.660
Pain is supposed to be temporary.

80
00:05:11.660 --> 00:05:14.040
If you are in pain in any area of your life

81
00:05:14.040 --> 00:05:16.880
and you have been in that same pain for years,

82
00:05:16.880 --> 00:05:20.520
that's not the temporary pain of change, friends.

83
00:05:20.520 --> 00:05:23.880
That's the permanent pain of doing something

84
00:05:23.880 --> 00:05:27.680
that's out of alignment with how God's created you.

85
00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:31.560
You're not supposed to be

86
00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:35.400
in years and years and years of pain.

87
00:05:35.400 --> 00:05:36.840
Pain is a gift.

88
00:05:36.840 --> 00:05:39.560
Pain lets us know when we're on the wrong path

89
00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:41.720
and we're doing something incorrectly.

90
00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:42.920
Think about it.

91
00:05:42.920 --> 00:05:45.240
You sleep on your arm wrong, what happens?

92
00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:47.280
You wake up because you're in pain.

93
00:05:47.280 --> 00:05:49.080
Your body wakes you up and says,

94
00:05:49.080 --> 00:05:51.740
hey, you're sleeping in the wrong position right now.

95
00:05:51.740 --> 00:05:54.320
You're cutting off circulation to your arm.

96
00:05:54.320 --> 00:05:57.040
You wake up, you have to shake your hand awake.

97
00:05:57.040 --> 00:05:58.440
Know what I'm talking about?

98
00:06:00.200 --> 00:06:01.040
What do you have to do?

99
00:06:01.040 --> 00:06:03.800
You have to reposition yourself before you go back to sleep.

100
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:05.640
You have to get back into alignment

101
00:06:06.540 --> 00:06:08.400
in order to stay out of that pain.

102
00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:11.120
Oftentimes, pain will come

103
00:06:12.540 --> 00:06:15.260
as a result of something that we're doing

104
00:06:15.260 --> 00:06:16.760
that's out of alignment,

105
00:06:16.760 --> 00:06:19.120
something that we're doing that's not the best for us,

106
00:06:19.120 --> 00:06:20.360
and it's like the warning sign.

107
00:06:20.360 --> 00:06:21.800
It's like the engine light on your car

108
00:06:21.800 --> 00:06:23.380
that says, danger, stop.

109
00:06:25.000 --> 00:06:26.320
This is the wrong direction.

110
00:06:26.320 --> 00:06:27.520
This is the wrong thing.

111
00:06:27.520 --> 00:06:29.400
This is the wrong job, the wrong person,

112
00:06:29.400 --> 00:06:30.760
the wrong purpose.

113
00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:33.640
This is not for you.

114
00:06:35.840 --> 00:06:38.360
But if we have pain that goes on and on and on

115
00:06:38.360 --> 00:06:40.000
and on and on,

116
00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:44.840
that means that we're not seeing the solution.

117
00:06:44.840 --> 00:06:47.320
We're not seeing the resource that God is sending

118
00:06:47.320 --> 00:06:48.600
to help us get out of pain,

119
00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:51.480
and that includes financially, physically,

120
00:06:51.480 --> 00:06:54.000
mentally, emotionally, spiritually.

121
00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:58.800
God loves us, and he says he will never allow pain

122
00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:01.360
unless something is being born.

123
00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:03.960
And you guys, you just can't be pregnant that long.

124
00:07:04.920 --> 00:07:06.740
Pregnancies have a due date.

125
00:07:08.840 --> 00:07:10.320
Something's gotta be born

126
00:07:10.320 --> 00:07:12.680
so we can move on and move forward.

127
00:07:12.680 --> 00:07:14.400
So you guys, it's not about becoming.

128
00:07:14.400 --> 00:07:15.400
You know what it's about?

129
00:07:15.400 --> 00:07:16.780
It's about unbecoming.

130
00:07:18.980 --> 00:07:21.520
When I went to Italy with my family a couple years ago,

131
00:07:21.520 --> 00:07:23.040
it was my first trip overseas.

132
00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:24.400
I had never been out of the country

133
00:07:24.400 --> 00:07:26.240
of the United States of America,

134
00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:27.080
because I know some of you

135
00:07:27.080 --> 00:07:29.840
are already living out of that country.

136
00:07:29.840 --> 00:07:31.680
So that's the country that I live in.

137
00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:34.160
And I had never been out of my country

138
00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:37.480
until I went to Italy a couple years ago on a family trip.

139
00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:41.280
And when I went, we of course saw all the sculptures

140
00:07:41.280 --> 00:07:43.000
and all the art and all the beauty.

141
00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:45.920
And one of the things there is called the David.

142
00:07:47.160 --> 00:07:48.600
It's a beautiful statue

143
00:07:50.520 --> 00:07:52.680
that was sculpted by a,

144
00:07:53.680 --> 00:07:57.720
that was sculpted by an artist named Michelangelo.

145
00:07:59.320 --> 00:08:01.640
And you know, you're taking the tour and you're listening.

146
00:08:01.640 --> 00:08:03.580
And one of the things that was said

147
00:08:03.580 --> 00:08:06.720
is that he was asked how he did it,

148
00:08:06.720 --> 00:08:08.400
how he carved this beautiful,

149
00:08:08.400 --> 00:08:10.740
because you guys, it's one continuous piece.

150
00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:13.880
It's one continuous piece.

151
00:08:13.880 --> 00:08:16.200
It wasn't carved in separate pieces.

152
00:08:16.200 --> 00:08:18.960
It's one continuous, beautiful piece.

153
00:08:18.960 --> 00:08:20.760
How, how did you do this?

154
00:08:20.760 --> 00:08:22.400
And if you ever see it, it's,

155
00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:23.960
I mean, it's beautiful.

156
00:08:24.880 --> 00:08:27.040
And what he answered was this.

157
00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:28.000
He said, it's easy.

158
00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:30.840
I took this block of stone

159
00:08:30.840 --> 00:08:34.059
and I removed everything that wasn't the David.

160
00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:38.679
I didn't carve the David.

161
00:08:38.679 --> 00:08:40.000
I took a block of stone

162
00:08:40.000 --> 00:08:42.760
and I removed everything that wasn't the David.

163
00:08:44.840 --> 00:08:45.900
Isn't that cool?

164
00:08:47.000 --> 00:08:48.080
Isn't that awesome?

165
00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:51.600
And you guys, that is the process that we are in.

166
00:08:51.600 --> 00:08:54.760
We are in the process right now,

167
00:08:54.760 --> 00:08:57.200
as we're going through this program together

168
00:08:57.200 --> 00:09:01.600
of letting God remove everything that is not Linda,

169
00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:06.080
that's not Liz, that's not Sarah Beth, that's not Paul.

170
00:09:06.080 --> 00:09:09.560
Every single thing that's not Laura or Mickey or Karen

171
00:09:09.560 --> 00:09:14.560
or Tina or Rachel, Audra, that's not Ruth.

172
00:09:15.580 --> 00:09:17.180
Everything that is getting in the way,

173
00:09:17.180 --> 00:09:18.560
everything that's blocking us

174
00:09:18.560 --> 00:09:23.560
from being Stephanie and Yamina and Joan, Joanne,

175
00:09:25.160 --> 00:09:29.240
everything that's hindering us

176
00:09:29.240 --> 00:09:31.600
from being this beautiful creation

177
00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:34.160
and living this beautiful life.

178
00:09:34.160 --> 00:09:39.000
It's not gonna be free from any kind of obstacle

179
00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:40.120
or adversity.

180
00:09:41.320 --> 00:09:42.540
You're gonna have that.

181
00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:45.360
You are, but you know what?

182
00:09:45.360 --> 00:09:47.200
It's gonna make you better.

183
00:09:49.080 --> 00:09:53.240
It's going to make you sharper and wiser.

184
00:09:55.180 --> 00:09:56.940
That's what's supposed to happen.

185
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:04.220
It's supposed to further us and catapult us forward.

186
00:10:06.000 --> 00:10:08.520
That's what trouble is supposed to do.

187
00:10:08.520 --> 00:10:10.580
That's what adversity is supposed to do.

188
00:10:12.200 --> 00:10:17.200
So stretch us so that we have more capacity to receive.

189
00:10:19.000 --> 00:10:22.120
But for a lot of us, that's not what's happening.

190
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:25.280
What's happening is that it's minimizing us.

191
00:10:25.280 --> 00:10:27.280
It's making us smaller.

192
00:10:27.280 --> 00:10:28.520
It's making us hide away.

193
00:10:28.520 --> 00:10:32.600
It's making us pull in instead of stretch out.

194
00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:38.160
And we can't have that because God wants us to win.

195
00:10:39.020 --> 00:10:40.680
If you're writing things down, write that down.

196
00:10:40.680 --> 00:10:43.640
God wants me to win.

197
00:10:46.160 --> 00:10:47.320
God wants me to win.

198
00:10:47.320 --> 00:10:50.160
Let me tell you something that I know about 2025.

199
00:10:50.160 --> 00:10:52.320
God told me that this year was a year

200
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:55.200
of favorable conditions for his people.

201
00:10:55.720 --> 00:11:00.000
Favorable conditions.

202
00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:03.440
Oftentimes when someone goes out to set off,

203
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:05.720
to set on a course, a sailor,

204
00:11:05.720 --> 00:11:10.000
oh, they'll say there's favorable conditions on this day.

205
00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:15.000
This is the day that we should go out and do this.

206
00:11:15.040 --> 00:11:16.560
If someone goes to invest money,

207
00:11:16.560 --> 00:11:18.040
they'll look at the market and they'll say,

208
00:11:18.040 --> 00:11:23.040
ah, favorable conditions for me to invest right now.

209
00:11:24.040 --> 00:11:26.520
If a farmer goes out to plant, he says,

210
00:11:26.520 --> 00:11:31.080
ah, there's favorable conditions for me to have success.

211
00:11:33.160 --> 00:11:36.440
God is saying that 2025 is a year

212
00:11:36.440 --> 00:11:39.860
of favorable conditions for his people.

213
00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:43.000
You might say, Jackie, to do what?

214
00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:45.300
To do whatever it is you wanna do.

215
00:11:46.680 --> 00:11:48.560
That's God's created you to do.

216
00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:51.560
Leaning into that.

217
00:11:51.560 --> 00:11:53.640
Well, Jackie, we can't just do what we wanna do.

218
00:11:53.640 --> 00:11:55.680
We gotta do what God wants us to do.

219
00:11:55.680 --> 00:11:56.840
They're the same.

220
00:11:59.360 --> 00:12:01.080
That's what heartwork's all about.

221
00:12:02.040 --> 00:12:03.760
Heartwork is all about unbecoming

222
00:12:03.760 --> 00:12:07.520
the counterfeit versions of you that have broken hearts.

223
00:12:07.520 --> 00:12:10.520
And those broken hearts have been leading you off of cliffs.

224
00:12:11.760 --> 00:12:16.680
And to fully step into that redeemed heart position

225
00:12:16.680 --> 00:12:18.560
where it's about the finished work of the cross.

226
00:12:18.560 --> 00:12:19.800
It's not about what you can do.

227
00:12:19.800 --> 00:12:21.280
It's not about your performance.

228
00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:24.240
It's about Jesus's performance on the cross.

229
00:12:24.240 --> 00:12:26.960
And that heart acts like a GPS.

230
00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:29.600
That heart is the heart that the scripture says

231
00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:31.080
that you have delighted in the Lord

232
00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:34.020
and he has given you desires for that heart.

233
00:12:36.640 --> 00:12:40.360
And so I propose to you that whatever that heart wants,

234
00:12:40.360 --> 00:12:42.980
you should go after it full throttle.

235
00:12:45.400 --> 00:12:46.640
Full throttle.

236
00:12:47.640 --> 00:12:50.200
What would it look like if you went after

237
00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:51.760
what that heart wanted?

238
00:12:51.760 --> 00:12:54.320
And remember, it needs to be that heart.

239
00:12:54.320 --> 00:12:57.520
Not the broken heart, not the poverty heart,

240
00:12:57.520 --> 00:12:59.000
not the scarcity heart.

241
00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:06.040
Not the heart that's full of ego.

242
00:13:06.040 --> 00:13:08.600
And let me tell you something that I know about God.

243
00:13:09.760 --> 00:13:12.440
He is a great course corrector.

244
00:13:12.440 --> 00:13:14.440
So if you get worried that you're gonna get off

245
00:13:14.440 --> 00:13:15.920
and you're gonna do the wrong thing,

246
00:13:15.960 --> 00:13:17.000
and you're gonna do the wrong things

247
00:13:17.000 --> 00:13:18.360
and you're gonna lose your soul

248
00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:21.140
or whatever fear thoughts have been coming

249
00:13:21.140 --> 00:13:22.940
to try to keep you stagnant,

250
00:13:22.940 --> 00:13:25.200
let me tell you something God told me years ago.

251
00:13:25.200 --> 00:13:27.980
He said, Jackie, I need you just to go.

252
00:13:27.980 --> 00:13:30.160
And I said, well, I don't know, Lord,

253
00:13:30.160 --> 00:13:33.540
because I don't know if my character is ready for this.

254
00:13:34.840 --> 00:13:37.560
I don't know if I can sustain this.

255
00:13:37.560 --> 00:13:39.640
He's like, you let me worry about that.

256
00:13:40.840 --> 00:13:42.880
He said, you forge ahead

257
00:13:43.880 --> 00:13:46.560
and I will forge you on the way.

258
00:13:49.080 --> 00:13:50.640
Write that down.

259
00:13:50.640 --> 00:13:52.760
You forge ahead and I will forge you.

260
00:13:52.760 --> 00:13:54.480
What does forge mean?

261
00:13:54.480 --> 00:13:56.300
Forge means I will sharpen you.

262
00:13:57.960 --> 00:14:02.080
Iron, forging it, shaping it.

263
00:14:02.080 --> 00:14:06.920
Now, sometimes it gets real hot in order for that to happen.

264
00:14:06.920 --> 00:14:10.520
But if you forge ahead, that's your job, Jackie.

265
00:14:10.520 --> 00:14:12.100
I can't make you go.

266
00:14:12.140 --> 00:14:16.740
You go and you let me take care of your character.

267
00:14:16.740 --> 00:14:18.660
You let me take care of sharpening.

268
00:14:18.660 --> 00:14:22.540
You let me take care of the things

269
00:14:22.540 --> 00:14:25.980
that you cannot create or have happen in your own self.

270
00:14:27.780 --> 00:14:29.460
You continue to move forward.

271
00:14:29.460 --> 00:14:31.220
You continue to surrender to me.

272
00:14:31.220 --> 00:14:36.220
I will take care of continuing to heal and reveal.

273
00:14:36.980 --> 00:14:38.500
Do you believe God can do that?

274
00:14:39.340 --> 00:14:42.220
So many people sit in these waiting rooms

275
00:14:43.380 --> 00:14:45.900
hoping that one day they're gonna be good enough

276
00:14:45.900 --> 00:14:48.180
or they're gonna have it enough together

277
00:14:48.180 --> 00:14:50.260
to do the things that are in their heart to do.

278
00:14:50.260 --> 00:14:51.600
It doesn't work that way.

279
00:14:54.300 --> 00:14:57.720
It's the process that processes you.

280
00:14:57.720 --> 00:14:58.820
You have to get in it.

281
00:14:58.820 --> 00:15:00.920
Let's look at the scripture that everyone.

282
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:04.000
one uses to promote these waiting rooms.

283
00:15:04.360 --> 00:15:08.560
I think it's like Psalm 40, 31, or it's about waiting on the Lord.

284
00:15:10.560 --> 00:15:13.840
At least that's the word that's used in the English language in that scripture.

285
00:15:14.120 --> 00:15:16.880
They that wait upon the Lord will renew their strength.

286
00:15:17.440 --> 00:15:20.240
They shall mount up with wings as eagles.

287
00:15:20.640 --> 00:15:22.640
They will run and not grow weary.

288
00:15:22.680 --> 00:15:24.400
They will walk and not faint.

289
00:15:25.080 --> 00:15:25.680
Guess what?

290
00:15:26.120 --> 00:15:30.480
If the word wait upon the Lord to renew your strength really meant wait,

291
00:15:30.760 --> 00:15:33.360
then the rest of that verse makes no sense.

292
00:15:36.560 --> 00:15:38.640
No, it means to expectantly prepare.

293
00:15:38.640 --> 00:15:41.080
That's what the word wait means in that scripture.

294
00:15:41.400 --> 00:15:46.320
It means that if God has promised you something, now you are busy preparing for

295
00:15:46.320 --> 00:15:46.600
it.

296
00:15:47.320 --> 00:15:51.120
And that's why the rest of the scripture makes sense where it says, action.

297
00:15:51.360 --> 00:15:53.680
You're running, but you're not growing weary.

298
00:15:53.680 --> 00:15:55.720
You're walking, but you're not fainting.

299
00:15:55.720 --> 00:15:56.360
Guess what?

300
00:15:56.360 --> 00:15:57.560
You're moving, aren't you?

301
00:15:59.040 --> 00:16:01.280
In both those scenarios, you are moving.

302
00:16:03.800 --> 00:16:05.520
I want to encourage you this morning.

303
00:16:05.520 --> 00:16:09.960
Holy Spirit wants to encourage you this morning that this is your one and only

304
00:16:09.960 --> 00:16:11.120
life, friends.

305
00:16:14.800 --> 00:16:16.680
This is your one and only life.

306
00:16:19.080 --> 00:16:20.800
You must take action.

307
00:16:20.840 --> 00:16:22.600
This is not a dress rehearsal.

308
00:16:24.680 --> 00:16:27.520
You must take imperfect action.

309
00:16:29.280 --> 00:16:31.040
And you have to keep taking action.

310
00:16:31.040 --> 00:16:33.840
Years ago, I had a dream years and years ago.

311
00:16:33.840 --> 00:16:38.000
It was when David and I first got married and God started revealing to us why we

312
00:16:38.000 --> 00:16:42.520
had come together, who we were not separately, but together.

313
00:16:43.120 --> 00:16:43.720
Okay.

314
00:16:44.560 --> 00:16:45.320
What was it?

315
00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:48.600
David, Dackie, what were we together?

316
00:16:49.560 --> 00:16:50.520
That's our couple names.

317
00:16:51.680 --> 00:16:52.880
What were we together?

318
00:16:54.040 --> 00:16:57.840
Now that these two children of God had come together, there were new

319
00:16:57.840 --> 00:16:59.480
assignments that were unlocking.

320
00:17:00.480 --> 00:17:04.760
There was new destiny that was unfolding and God began to tell us about it.

321
00:17:04.760 --> 00:17:06.480
And it was exciting, you guys.

322
00:17:07.160 --> 00:17:08.160
Oh my gosh.

323
00:17:08.200 --> 00:17:12.640
The words that we were receiving, the dreams that we were having, it was so

324
00:17:12.640 --> 00:17:13.560
exciting.

325
00:17:13.960 --> 00:17:16.000
And I remember that we would talk about it all the time.

326
00:17:16.000 --> 00:17:18.280
Well, you know, God promised us this.

327
00:17:18.280 --> 00:17:19.720
God told us that.

328
00:17:20.800 --> 00:17:22.160
It was really cool.

329
00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:24.000
And then one night I had a dream.

330
00:17:25.200 --> 00:17:28.760
And in this dream, there was a spiritual mother figure.

331
00:17:29.480 --> 00:17:34.320
She was a famous pastor's wife, happened to be our pastor at the time.

332
00:17:34.320 --> 00:17:38.880
His wife, very, very well-known author and speaker and person.

333
00:17:39.560 --> 00:17:43.200
And of course we knew her in real life because, you know, we worked at the

334
00:17:43.200 --> 00:17:45.480
church that we attended, Mega Church.

335
00:17:46.000 --> 00:17:46.920
We worked there.

336
00:17:46.920 --> 00:17:51.400
And so, you know, we had run-ins with her, you know, weekly.

337
00:17:51.840 --> 00:17:55.520
But in this dream, she represented like Holy Spirit.

338
00:17:55.840 --> 00:18:00.520
She represented a mother that comes and gives you direction and instruction.

339
00:18:00.600 --> 00:18:01.200
Understand?

340
00:18:02.280 --> 00:18:08.280
So in this dream, I'm telling her about all these amazing things that God has told

341
00:18:08.560 --> 00:18:10.880
me and David that we're going to do together.

342
00:18:12.240 --> 00:18:17.360
All these incredible promises, all of these assignments, I'm telling her about

343
00:18:17.360 --> 00:18:21.040
them and she's listening eagerly and excited with me.

344
00:18:21.320 --> 00:18:27.720
And then at the end of my monologue, she says, Jackie, that's amazing.

345
00:18:27.720 --> 00:18:28.600
It's wonderful.

346
00:18:28.600 --> 00:18:30.360
I'm so excited for you.

347
00:18:31.000 --> 00:18:33.240
She said, you only lack one thing.

348
00:18:35.400 --> 00:18:36.920
And I was like, what?

349
00:18:37.720 --> 00:18:39.600
She said, you only lack one thing.

350
00:18:39.600 --> 00:18:43.000
That's one thing is all you need to accomplish everything

351
00:18:43.000 --> 00:18:44.360
that you just talked about.

352
00:18:45.160 --> 00:18:45.920
And I said, what is it?

353
00:18:45.920 --> 00:18:46.520
What is it?

354
00:18:47.080 --> 00:18:48.800
And then I woke up from the dream.

355
00:18:50.680 --> 00:18:51.720
Oh, y'all.

356
00:18:52.680 --> 00:18:57.120
I was like, no, I even tried to go back into it.

357
00:18:57.120 --> 00:18:58.680
You know, you're having a good dream.

358
00:18:58.680 --> 00:19:00.080
You're like, oh, let me get back in there.

359
00:19:01.360 --> 00:19:03.440
Let me get back in there and see what's going on in there.

360
00:19:04.080 --> 00:19:04.760
But it didn't work.

361
00:19:04.760 --> 00:19:08.800
And I was just laying in bed and I'm like, God, what was she going to say?

362
00:19:08.800 --> 00:19:10.240
What were you going to say?

363
00:19:10.680 --> 00:19:12.360
And I started thinking of all these thoughts.

364
00:19:12.360 --> 00:19:13.920
Like you only lack resources.

365
00:19:13.920 --> 00:19:15.600
You only lack da, da, da.

366
00:19:16.120 --> 00:19:20.280
And then just like that, Holy Spirit said, discipline.

367
00:19:20.960 --> 00:19:25.520
She was going to say, the only thing that you lack is discipline.

368
00:19:28.200 --> 00:19:33.320
Guys, that was fighting words, right?

369
00:19:34.200 --> 00:19:35.080
Discipline.

370
00:19:36.720 --> 00:19:38.800
You only lack the follow through.

371
00:19:38.800 --> 00:19:40.120
You only lack.

372
00:19:41.920 --> 00:19:45.640
Perseverance to keep going and keep trying.

373
00:19:47.160 --> 00:19:48.600
And you don't give up because of what?

374
00:19:48.600 --> 00:19:49.600
Because of discipline.

375
00:19:49.840 --> 00:19:55.120
Because I know a lot of people that want a lot of things, want a lot of things.

376
00:19:55.120 --> 00:19:56.080
They want to lose weight.

377
00:19:56.080 --> 00:19:57.280
They want to get healthy.

378
00:19:57.720 --> 00:19:58.840
They want to get out of debt.

379
00:19:59.160 --> 00:20:00.040
There's all kinds of.

380
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:01.080
things. They want to get married.

381
00:20:01.080 --> 00:20:03.960
I know a lot of people that want to get married and I wonder who those people

382
00:20:03.960 --> 00:20:04.800
could be.

383
00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:09.760
But it's going to take discipline to get there.

384
00:20:10.480 --> 00:20:11.920
God already said we could have it.

385
00:20:14.160 --> 00:20:17.960
The problem is, is that we allow ourselves to get distracted so easily.

386
00:20:21.440 --> 00:20:25.120
We do. And the reason why is because,

387
00:20:26.080 --> 00:20:29.560
the reason why it's so easy for us to get distracted is because it's hard not

388
00:20:29.560 --> 00:20:34.400
to give up because of disappointment, because of bad information,

389
00:20:34.880 --> 00:20:39.080
because of lack of hope or low hope. There's all different types of reasons.

390
00:20:40.160 --> 00:20:43.040
You know, a lot of people struggle internally with the idea of, Hey,

391
00:20:43.040 --> 00:20:47.240
you know, why is this time any different? Now I've gone to the gym before.

392
00:20:47.240 --> 00:20:50.680
It's never worked. Yeah, it never worked. Cause you didn't work it.

393
00:20:53.640 --> 00:20:57.480
You guys, we all without exception, give up too soon.

394
00:20:58.480 --> 00:20:59.600
We give up too soon.

395
00:20:59.600 --> 00:21:03.120
I can't tell you how many times God has pinpointed something.

396
00:21:03.120 --> 00:21:08.200
He has highlighted something as part of a solution to a problem or a pain that

397
00:21:08.200 --> 00:21:11.000
I'm in that I've been praying about. Oh God,

398
00:21:11.000 --> 00:21:14.040
I'm in so much pain right now in this area of my life. Please help me.

399
00:21:14.920 --> 00:21:18.680
And then he'll pinpoint something or highlight something, a person,

400
00:21:18.680 --> 00:21:22.520
a resource, a course, a class, something, a book,

401
00:21:22.560 --> 00:21:26.560
whatever it is. And at first you're like, okay, yeah,

402
00:21:26.880 --> 00:21:29.880
I'll try it. But do you really try it?

403
00:21:32.360 --> 00:21:36.520
And oftentimes we don't try it because we've tried so many things in the past

404
00:21:36.520 --> 00:21:40.920
that didn't work. But once again, we did not give it time.

405
00:21:42.920 --> 00:21:44.600
We weren't disciplined.

406
00:21:46.360 --> 00:21:48.000
We didn't apply it.

407
00:21:50.000 --> 00:21:51.200
We didn't apply it.

408
00:21:51.920 --> 00:21:56.240
I remember a time in my life when this was true, you guys,

409
00:21:56.280 --> 00:21:57.560
about my mental health.

410
00:21:58.360 --> 00:22:01.360
I just thought that I was forever going to be broken in this area,

411
00:22:01.640 --> 00:22:05.400
that it was just a family scourge that I was just going to have to deal with.

412
00:22:05.600 --> 00:22:08.560
You know, people always talk about generational curses and all the things.

413
00:22:08.800 --> 00:22:12.200
And I was a new Christian. I was a new Christian.

414
00:22:12.200 --> 00:22:15.200
And I thought this is going to be my life for the rest of my life.

415
00:22:16.360 --> 00:22:19.520
I went to all the altar calls. I had the people pray for me.

416
00:22:19.560 --> 00:22:22.920
I quoted the scriptures. I did the things y'all, I did the things.

417
00:22:23.680 --> 00:22:28.720
And yet I was still struggling with severe obsessive

418
00:22:28.720 --> 00:22:33.000
compulsive disorder and panic disorder and anxiety disorder.

419
00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:36.640
And my life on the daily was a living hell.

420
00:22:40.920 --> 00:22:44.040
And you know, people come and they try to give you well, you know,

421
00:22:44.040 --> 00:22:46.080
they are well-meaning, they're well-meaning people.

422
00:22:46.280 --> 00:22:47.440
I don't believe that they're malicious.

423
00:22:47.440 --> 00:22:48.720
I don't think they're trying to hurt us,

424
00:22:49.880 --> 00:22:52.480
but oftentimes when we can't help someone or fix someone,

425
00:22:52.480 --> 00:22:55.440
we will create theology to explain their pain.

426
00:22:56.640 --> 00:22:57.600
Remember the book of Job,

427
00:22:57.920 --> 00:23:00.960
his friends were just creating crap to explain his pain.

428
00:23:01.440 --> 00:23:05.440
Well, maybe you did this or maybe this happened or, you know, this is,

429
00:23:05.600 --> 00:23:08.880
this is a result of that. No, you guys,

430
00:23:09.160 --> 00:23:10.480
we live in a broken world.

431
00:23:10.880 --> 00:23:13.520
There's all kinds of crazy brokenness all around us.

432
00:23:14.480 --> 00:23:17.360
So what we have to continue to align ourselves with the finished work of the

433
00:23:17.360 --> 00:23:18.200
cross.

434
00:23:20.640 --> 00:23:24.240
We have to continue in his word and then we will know the truth and then it will

435
00:23:24.240 --> 00:23:27.680
make us free. The word continue is important in that scripture

436
00:23:29.360 --> 00:23:30.440
because I was a newbie.

437
00:23:31.240 --> 00:23:33.960
So I was trying all the things that everyone was telling me to do.

438
00:23:34.760 --> 00:23:38.640
Everyone was telling me fast, pray this, that all the things,

439
00:23:38.880 --> 00:23:43.040
but then God set a teacher into my life. He did.

440
00:23:43.240 --> 00:23:44.640
I was praying for a solution.

441
00:23:44.640 --> 00:23:49.280
I was praying because I was in so much pain and God sent a teacher

442
00:23:49.280 --> 00:23:52.040
into my life. And her name was Joyce Meyer.

443
00:23:55.680 --> 00:23:57.200
Whether you love her or don't love her.

444
00:23:57.360 --> 00:23:59.920
I will tell you that Joyce Meyer changed my life,

445
00:24:03.240 --> 00:24:06.120
but she only changed my life because I didn't quit.

446
00:24:06.840 --> 00:24:09.360
I caught on to something that she was talking about,

447
00:24:09.600 --> 00:24:11.200
about doing life in the word.

448
00:24:14.040 --> 00:24:17.080
It doesn't matter what you think. What does the word say?

449
00:24:17.320 --> 00:24:20.320
It doesn't matter what your reality says. What does the word say?

450
00:24:21.000 --> 00:24:25.440
She was someone because of necessity in her own life, in her own story,

451
00:24:25.760 --> 00:24:29.080
she had to choose God's reality over her own.

452
00:24:31.080 --> 00:24:33.720
She was modeling that and you guys,

453
00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:37.080
there were plenty of times when I was trying it and it wasn't working.

454
00:24:37.640 --> 00:24:38.480
It wasn't working.

455
00:24:38.480 --> 00:24:41.960
I was still dealing with all of this mental health pain.

456
00:24:43.480 --> 00:24:46.800
And if you've ever been in any of that pain, whether it's anxiety, depression,

457
00:24:47.840 --> 00:24:49.520
whatever it is that you dealt with,

458
00:24:49.520 --> 00:24:54.480
you know that it makes you feel like giving up a

459
00:24:54.480 --> 00:24:57.960
lot. But I didn't give up.

460
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:04.160
Because I will tell you one thing, when you set your mind on a course,

461
00:25:04.720 --> 00:25:08.560
and God sees the intention of your heart, He will continue to put wind in your sails.

462
00:25:09.840 --> 00:25:14.000
You've got to get up every day and you've got to do the thing. You've got to walk

463
00:25:14.000 --> 00:25:18.000
and not faint. You've got to run and He'll make sure you don't grow weary.

464
00:25:18.000 --> 00:25:21.360
His part is the don't grow weary part. His part is the

465
00:25:21.360 --> 00:25:25.200
not fainting part. Your part is the walking and the running. Understand?

466
00:25:25.200 --> 00:25:39.680
And so I was trying to implement this truth in my life. I got scriptures. I wrote them on cards.

467
00:25:39.680 --> 00:25:47.680
I tried to, because I started, God started talking to me, okay? So I was taking the lessons from her,

468
00:25:47.680 --> 00:25:52.800
but then God started talking to me about my heart work. He started teaching me

469
00:25:52.800 --> 00:25:58.400
about something called heart work. Started showing me that I couldn't erase what was

470
00:25:58.400 --> 00:26:04.000
happening, but I could replace it with His word. And I started doing it.

471
00:26:06.480 --> 00:26:12.400
And it wasn't an overnight success, you guys. I didn't, I wasn't all better overnight. In fact,

472
00:26:12.400 --> 00:26:17.040
it took the better part of 10 years, and I don't want that to scare you, but it did. It took the

473
00:26:17.040 --> 00:26:25.440
better part of a decade for me to get to a place where I could feel comfortable in my own body

474
00:26:26.720 --> 00:26:37.920
and in my own life. But now I'm 18 years past that mark, and I will tell you that it was worth it.

475
00:26:38.880 --> 00:26:46.480
It was worth every moment of it. And now it has become part of my life that cannot be taken from

476
00:26:46.480 --> 00:26:59.840
me. There's life in the word. God's word is a better word. Jesus's blood is a better word.

477
00:27:00.480 --> 00:27:08.640
It is. I've tested it. It's true. I've walked it out. It's real. But you guys,

478
00:27:08.640 --> 00:27:13.040
you can apply this to any area of your life. And of course, it's very important that we apply this

479
00:27:13.040 --> 00:27:18.640
to our spiritual lives. That's why we have Supernatural Saturday. It's about what's God's

480
00:27:18.640 --> 00:27:25.440
current prophetic reality, not ours. What is it? What is He doing? He's always doing something.

481
00:27:26.400 --> 00:27:29.760
Once again, just because you can't see it doesn't mean it's not happening.

482
00:27:31.440 --> 00:27:35.680
So you guys, this is not a Christian business conference that I'm attending,

483
00:27:36.240 --> 00:27:39.760
and there's a lot of statistics that get thrown out. And I'm just going to tell you,

484
00:27:39.760 --> 00:27:42.560
a lot of them really bother me, and yet I know they're true.

485
00:27:44.480 --> 00:27:49.360
Less than 1% of people are going to do anything with the gifts and talents that they have.

486
00:27:50.240 --> 00:28:03.600
And you know why? Because it's about not giving up. It's about working the process,

487
00:28:03.600 --> 00:28:11.440
even when you don't want to. All the people that joined the gym in January because they're like,

488
00:28:12.160 --> 00:28:16.000
all the people that joined the gym in January because they're like, this is my year.

489
00:28:17.680 --> 00:28:23.440
They joined the gym. They joined the fitness class. By March, most of them are gone.

490
00:28:25.360 --> 00:28:31.920
By March, the gyms are all full in January, you guys. By March, they're not. They're not full

491
00:28:31.920 --> 00:28:38.560
anymore. Those gyms are coming up with sale prices. They're coming up with promotional

492
00:28:38.560 --> 00:28:43.200
to try to get people back in because people are no longer motivated.

493
00:28:47.040 --> 00:28:50.400
When you have discipline, you also have to have self-motivation,

494
00:28:51.600 --> 00:28:54.880
which means that you're not going to, this is one thing I can promise you,

495
00:28:55.680 --> 00:29:03.280
you're not going to feel like it. Whatever it is that you want to do, that you set off to do with

496
00:29:03.280 --> 00:29:10.160
such excitement and such zeal, pretty soon that zeal and excitement is going to go away.

497
00:29:12.080 --> 00:29:17.680
It's going to go away. And then what does it have to be replaced by at that moment?

498
00:29:18.960 --> 00:29:25.920
Work. You just got to do the work. One of my favorite Joyce Meyer quotes is that a lot of

499
00:29:25.920 --> 00:29:30.640
people, it's probably not from her, but she would say it. I think it's from Abraham Lincoln or

500
00:29:30.640 --> 00:29:36.080
someone, is that a lot of people, well, two of them, she said, a lot of people have a lot of

501
00:29:36.080 --> 00:29:42.320
wishbone, but no backbone. That's my favorite quote by her. And I think that is an original

502
00:29:42.320 --> 00:29:47.280
to her. But there's another quote that someone else said, and it's probably, I think it was

503
00:29:47.280 --> 00:29:51.920
Abraham Lincoln. You guys can Google it and figure it out. But it says that a lot of people miss

504
00:29:51.920 --> 00:29:59.840
opportunities because it's work, right? They miss opportunities.

505
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:06.640
because you got to show up in overalls for those opportunities. It's about work.

506
00:30:06.640 --> 00:30:13.600
It is. And yeah, you guys, there are people that are overnight successes, okay?

507
00:30:13.600 --> 00:30:17.920
There are people that just happen to be in the right place at the right time, but

508
00:30:17.920 --> 00:30:24.280
you guys, that's not sustainable. It's not sustainable.

509
00:30:24.280 --> 00:30:27.840
And there are other people that seem like they're an overnight success simply

510
00:30:27.840 --> 00:30:31.600
because you didn't know that they were doing that behind the scenes.

511
00:30:31.600 --> 00:30:35.080
Have you ever met someone? Have you ever seen someone that you know,

512
00:30:35.080 --> 00:30:38.800
and you haven't seen them in a while? And then when you see them again,

513
00:30:38.800 --> 00:30:45.240
they've lost all the weight, or they're healthy, or they're married,

514
00:30:45.240 --> 00:30:51.880
or like some huge, great, amazing change has happened in their life.

515
00:30:51.880 --> 00:30:57.360
That didn't happen overnight. There were bands back in the day that we

516
00:30:57.360 --> 00:31:02.880
used to call one-hit wonders. You're like, man, who sings that one catchy song?

517
00:31:02.880 --> 00:31:05.840
And then you look up the band, and it's some random name that you've never heard

518
00:31:05.840 --> 00:31:09.080
of in your life, and you've never heard of again. The reason why is because that

519
00:31:09.080 --> 00:31:15.640
was the only song they had that was a hit. And oftentimes, it's because they were...

520
00:31:15.640 --> 00:31:21.760
It was kind of like a fluke, right? It was a situation where they did not play

521
00:31:21.760 --> 00:31:26.600
the club. They hadn't, like, come up through the circuits. They didn't pay

522
00:31:26.600 --> 00:31:31.960
their dues, so to speak, like all the bands did. You know, I know the Beatles

523
00:31:31.960 --> 00:31:38.080
exploded on the scene here in America, but they were playing in England for years

524
00:31:38.080 --> 00:31:42.240
and years, playing the clubs, you know, getting together as a band,

525
00:31:42.240 --> 00:31:45.960
learning how to play together, learning how to hone their craft and their gift

526
00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:53.640
together, way before they exploded on the scene to be famous. And that's usually how

527
00:31:53.640 --> 00:32:01.320
it is and how it works. Mastery takes 10,000 hours. Write it down.

528
00:32:01.320 --> 00:32:04.800
Mastery. If you want to master anything, you play the piano, you want to master it,

529
00:32:04.800 --> 00:32:11.240
you've got to put in 10,000 hours, right? You're a writer, you want to master that,

530
00:32:11.240 --> 00:32:16.760
you've got to put in 10,000 hours, which is the equivalent, I think,

531
00:32:16.760 --> 00:32:22.440
to seven years, give or take. But there's other bands that they just exploded

532
00:32:22.440 --> 00:32:27.360
on the scene, and they had a catchy song, and it, like, blew up,

533
00:32:27.360 --> 00:32:29.920
but then it blew out, y'all, and you want to know why?

534
00:32:29.920 --> 00:32:34.760
Because they didn't have the right managers, they didn't have the right,

535
00:32:34.760 --> 00:32:37.880
you know, band members, they started fighting with each other,

536
00:32:37.880 --> 00:32:41.160
they couldn't handle fame as a team, because they didn't really know or

537
00:32:41.160 --> 00:32:44.760
like each other that much. Guys, there was all kinds of things

538
00:32:44.760 --> 00:32:50.480
that happened, all kinds of things that happened to keep them from being able

539
00:32:50.480 --> 00:32:57.000
to sustain that level of influence. Can't sustain it? Like, for instance,

540
00:32:57.000 --> 00:33:02.760
there's a story going around right now, I saw it the other day on social media,

541
00:33:02.760 --> 00:33:06.920
that it's in another country, I don't really remember what country,

542
00:33:06.920 --> 00:33:15.000
but this woman refused to give her seat to a screaming toddler on a plane.

543
00:33:15.000 --> 00:33:19.480
Okay? So she was on a plane, she had a window seat,

544
00:33:19.480 --> 00:33:25.400
and she was already on the plane, sitting in her seat, like a young woman,

545
00:33:25.400 --> 00:33:31.640
fairly attractive, and a mother came on with her child,

546
00:33:31.640 --> 00:33:34.840
who I want to say is, they called it a toddler, so let's say,

547
00:33:34.840 --> 00:33:39.240
two to four years old, two to three years old.

548
00:33:39.240 --> 00:33:43.320
And I guess the mother was assigned to the aisle seat and the middle seat

549
00:33:43.320 --> 00:33:46.440
with this child, but the child really wanted to look out the window,

550
00:33:46.440 --> 00:33:50.440
and so the mother, another passenger on the plane was like,

551
00:33:50.440 --> 00:33:56.320
hey, you know, why don't you let him, you know, sit in your seat?

552
00:33:56.320 --> 00:34:01.600
She's like, no, I don't want to. I bought this seat.

553
00:34:01.600 --> 00:34:05.800
And so the mother and the toddler sat next to this girl on the plane,

554
00:34:05.800 --> 00:34:10.960
and the toddler screamed the entire flight, would not be consoled.

555
00:34:10.960 --> 00:34:14.880
And I know a lot of people would be like, oh, that kid's a brat.

556
00:34:14.880 --> 00:34:19.960
Maybe, but my grandchildren are between two and three years old,

557
00:34:19.960 --> 00:34:24.000
and they just don't understand.

558
00:34:24.000 --> 00:34:26.360
They also just don't understand, right?

559
00:34:26.360 --> 00:34:29.320
Tired, cranky, just don't understand.

560
00:34:29.320 --> 00:34:32.679
And it's like a lot of people were in the comments of the story being like,

561
00:34:32.679 --> 00:34:35.719
oh, well, this is an opportunity for you to teach your child

562
00:34:35.719 --> 00:34:37.840
that they just can't have everything they want.

563
00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:40.880
Well, yeah, and when a child has reasoning abilities at a little bit

564
00:34:40.880 --> 00:34:43.600
of an older age, like five or six, great,

565
00:34:43.639 --> 00:34:47.239
but two or three, probably not.

566
00:34:47.239 --> 00:34:51.760
Now, here's what's so interesting about the story, you guys.

567
00:34:51.760 --> 00:34:56.880
Had another passenger not filmed this girl sitting in the window seat

568
00:34:56.880 --> 00:35:00.040
and tried to villainize her and tried to bully her?

569
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:03.260
because people were trying to get her to give up her seat.

570
00:35:03.260 --> 00:35:06.340
Oh, come on, you know, just give this kid what he wants

571
00:35:06.340 --> 00:35:07.240
and she wouldn't do it.

572
00:35:07.240 --> 00:35:08.560
She held her ground.

573
00:35:08.560 --> 00:35:09.960
He was gonna sit there.

574
00:35:11.200 --> 00:35:13.360
Had someone else not filmed her

575
00:35:13.360 --> 00:35:15.320
and kind of been a Karen, so to speak,

576
00:35:15.320 --> 00:35:16.960
forgive me if your name's Karen,

577
00:35:16.960 --> 00:35:19.240
but you understand what I mean by that, right?

578
00:35:19.240 --> 00:35:22.320
Had not been that kind of character in the story,

579
00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:27.320
then that girl in the seat next to the window

580
00:35:30.080 --> 00:35:32.180
would have been the villain, wouldn't she?

581
00:35:33.440 --> 00:35:34.800
People would be like, what a jerk.

582
00:35:34.800 --> 00:35:37.440
Just give the kid your seat, what the heck?

583
00:35:37.440 --> 00:35:39.680
And then the flight attendants, like just, you know,

584
00:35:39.680 --> 00:35:43.640
reseat this woman to another seat.

585
00:35:43.640 --> 00:35:46.360
You know, whatever, whatever you gotta do.

586
00:35:46.360 --> 00:35:47.560
I mean, there's a whole bunch of people

587
00:35:47.560 --> 00:35:49.440
that drop the balls in this story,

588
00:35:49.440 --> 00:35:51.960
but because it was filmed,

589
00:35:52.600 --> 00:35:54.000
it was like, oh, they're bullying her.

590
00:35:54.000 --> 00:35:56.960
People are so sensitive to bullying nowadays, you guys.

591
00:35:56.960 --> 00:35:58.720
But I'm telling this story to tell you this.

592
00:35:58.720 --> 00:36:00.620
This is the important part of this story.

593
00:36:00.620 --> 00:36:05.520
That girl in the window seat, she skyrocketed to fame.

594
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:12.040
She has millions of followers now on Instagram

595
00:36:12.040 --> 00:36:14.240
because people went and found her

596
00:36:14.240 --> 00:36:17.240
so that they could tell her that they agreed with her

597
00:36:17.240 --> 00:36:20.360
and good for her and she should stand her ground.

598
00:36:20.360 --> 00:36:22.920
And millions of people came and followed this girl

599
00:36:22.920 --> 00:36:25.760
and now she's getting endorsements

600
00:36:25.760 --> 00:36:28.240
because she's, you know, a little bit attractive.

601
00:36:28.240 --> 00:36:31.240
She's getting endorsements for, oh, hey, you know,

602
00:36:31.240 --> 00:36:34.760
sell this face cream for us or this hair stuff for us.

603
00:36:34.760 --> 00:36:38.800
She's making money now off of this situation

604
00:36:38.800 --> 00:36:40.920
because now she has this huge following.

605
00:36:42.160 --> 00:36:45.120
You guys, that's called a one-hit wonder.

606
00:36:47.280 --> 00:36:48.720
And you wanna know why?

607
00:36:48.760 --> 00:36:50.520
Because she has no idea.

608
00:36:50.520 --> 00:36:51.800
She even said herself,

609
00:36:51.800 --> 00:36:54.400
I don't know how to handle this newfound success.

610
00:36:55.300 --> 00:36:57.400
I don't know what to do about this.

611
00:36:57.400 --> 00:36:59.920
And only in this era that we live in

612
00:36:59.920 --> 00:37:03.000
can people become, you know, hugely popular

613
00:37:03.000 --> 00:37:07.380
and successful overnight because of the dumbest stuff.

614
00:37:07.380 --> 00:37:11.040
You guys remember the Cash Me Outside kid, girl?

615
00:37:11.040 --> 00:37:12.380
Cash Me Outside?

616
00:37:13.840 --> 00:37:16.580
Her mom took her on to a Dr. Phil show

617
00:37:16.580 --> 00:37:20.700
and, you know, someone in the audience was arguing with her

618
00:37:20.700 --> 00:37:23.020
because she was a juvenile delinquent

619
00:37:23.020 --> 00:37:24.860
and the stuff that she was putting her mother through

620
00:37:24.860 --> 00:37:27.140
and the stuff she was doing was just ridiculous.

621
00:37:27.140 --> 00:37:29.940
Sneaking out, sleeping around, doing drugs.

622
00:37:29.940 --> 00:37:31.660
She thought she was a hoodlum.

623
00:37:31.660 --> 00:37:33.340
She hadn't been raised that way.

624
00:37:33.340 --> 00:37:35.460
You know, she thought she was a little hood rat

625
00:37:35.460 --> 00:37:38.860
and everyone in the audience was coming at her, you know,

626
00:37:38.860 --> 00:37:40.520
and Dr. Phil just lets that happen

627
00:37:40.520 --> 00:37:42.480
because that's the kind of show that it is.

628
00:37:42.480 --> 00:37:44.460
And this one older lady in the front is like,

629
00:37:44.460 --> 00:37:46.260
you know, blah, blah, blah, blah.

630
00:37:46.940 --> 00:37:47.860
And this girl, you know,

631
00:37:47.860 --> 00:37:49.700
because she's using like all broken English,

632
00:37:49.700 --> 00:37:52.220
trying to be hard, trying to be hood, trying to be street.

633
00:37:52.220 --> 00:37:55.500
And she was like, why don't you cash me outside?

634
00:37:55.500 --> 00:37:58.460
Like cash, but cash instead, cash me outside.

635
00:37:58.460 --> 00:38:00.980
Guys, that phrase went viral.

636
00:38:00.980 --> 00:38:05.980
And this girl ended up being invited everywhere on shows.

637
00:38:06.820 --> 00:38:09.860
She started getting, you know, little cameos

638
00:38:09.860 --> 00:38:11.420
and movies and different things.

639
00:38:11.420 --> 00:38:15.420
Started making tons of money, getting super famous

640
00:38:15.420 --> 00:38:18.620
because of this thing that she said.

641
00:38:18.620 --> 00:38:20.980
But how do you think that went

642
00:38:20.980 --> 00:38:22.900
with the state of life that this girl was in,

643
00:38:22.900 --> 00:38:24.380
the state of mind that she was in?

644
00:38:24.380 --> 00:38:26.380
She was on the show because she was a broken,

645
00:38:26.380 --> 00:38:27.780
messed up person.

646
00:38:27.780 --> 00:38:30.420
And now they're throwing money and fame at her.

647
00:38:30.420 --> 00:38:32.120
What do you think that looks like?

648
00:38:33.460 --> 00:38:34.740
It looks bad, doesn't it?

649
00:38:36.520 --> 00:38:38.620
I remember seeing that it's the honorarium

650
00:38:38.620 --> 00:38:40.580
for her to come and speak somewhere.

651
00:38:40.580 --> 00:38:43.220
Like what in the world is she gonna say, first of all?

652
00:38:43.220 --> 00:38:45.380
I mean, why would anyone wanna come

653
00:38:45.380 --> 00:38:46.740
and listen to her speak?

654
00:38:46.740 --> 00:38:50.980
Was like $20,000, $30,000.

655
00:38:50.980 --> 00:38:54.300
Just crazy stuff, you guys, crazy.

656
00:38:54.300 --> 00:38:59.300
Snooki from Jersey Shore, $100,000 honorarium to speak.

657
00:39:00.140 --> 00:39:00.980
What?

658
00:39:02.980 --> 00:39:05.020
So we live in this society, you guys,

659
00:39:05.020 --> 00:39:08.500
where people are rewarded for this kind

660
00:39:08.500 --> 00:39:10.700
of one hit wonder type of stuff.

661
00:39:11.700 --> 00:39:14.780
This being promoted beyond their character.

662
00:39:14.780 --> 00:39:15.700
And I just wanna let you know

663
00:39:15.700 --> 00:39:19.180
that you don't have to worry about that in life

664
00:39:20.780 --> 00:39:22.940
because God promises in the book of Proverbs

665
00:39:22.940 --> 00:39:27.940
that he will not increase us if it will bring us sorrow.

666
00:39:29.860 --> 00:39:34.180
He's not gonna promote us past the place of our character.

667
00:39:34.180 --> 00:39:37.020
Now he will promote you to stretch your character

668
00:39:37.020 --> 00:39:38.580
and to hone your character,

669
00:39:38.620 --> 00:39:42.060
but only because he knows that you can handle it.

670
00:39:42.060 --> 00:39:44.260
It might not be easy, but once again,

671
00:39:44.260 --> 00:39:45.220
what do we say here?

672
00:39:45.220 --> 00:39:48.340
It will be worth it, right?

673
00:39:49.180 --> 00:39:51.260
There are those of you that are gonna have a love story

674
00:39:51.260 --> 00:39:53.940
show up in your life that you do not feel ready for,

675
00:39:53.940 --> 00:39:57.020
that you don't feel healed enough for or mature enough for,

676
00:39:57.020 --> 00:39:58.820
and you just have to trust the Lord.

677
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:02.060
You're gonna feel like it's possibly a counterfeit

678
00:40:02.060 --> 00:40:05.120
because of the things that I just described

679
00:40:05.120 --> 00:40:07.500
about feeling not prepared or not ready

680
00:40:07.500 --> 00:40:09.980
or not healed enough or not divorced long enough

681
00:40:09.980 --> 00:40:12.100
or whatever the case may be.

682
00:40:12.100 --> 00:40:13.820
And you just have to trust God

683
00:40:13.820 --> 00:40:16.320
because this is part of his maturity plan for you.

684
00:40:17.980 --> 00:40:19.740
Yes, there's gonna be ebbs and flows.

685
00:40:19.740 --> 00:40:21.060
There's gonna be ups and downs.

686
00:40:21.060 --> 00:40:24.820
There's supposed to be in everything, you guys.

687
00:40:24.820 --> 00:40:26.340
That thing that God highlighted to you

688
00:40:26.340 --> 00:40:27.780
at the beginning of the year,

689
00:40:28.780 --> 00:40:31.900
that fitness thing, it's not gonna be easy.

690
00:40:31.900 --> 00:40:33.060
There's gonna be some days

691
00:40:33.060 --> 00:40:35.140
where you're gonna feel on top of the world

692
00:40:35.140 --> 00:40:36.720
and you're gonna feel like you can do it all.

693
00:40:36.720 --> 00:40:37.740
And there's gonna be some days

694
00:40:37.740 --> 00:40:41.340
when you're dragging yourself to get it done.

695
00:40:43.720 --> 00:40:46.260
They're both divine.

696
00:40:46.260 --> 00:40:47.940
The days where you feel empowered

697
00:40:47.940 --> 00:40:50.980
and you feel like you have a supernatural wind at your back

698
00:40:50.980 --> 00:40:53.500
and the days that you feel like you're walking into the wind

699
00:40:53.500 --> 00:40:54.640
they're both divine.

700
00:40:55.400 --> 00:40:58.520
So I am rooting for you and for me to not quit

701
00:41:00.920 --> 00:41:03.240
and to also not get distracted.

702
00:41:03.240 --> 00:41:04.760
You guys, write this down.

703
00:41:04.760 --> 00:41:08.480
Whatever distracts me is my enemy.

704
00:41:12.680 --> 00:41:15.920
Whatever distracts me is my enemy.

705
00:41:17.320 --> 00:41:20.840
Okay, the enemy is using that to distract you.

706
00:41:20.840 --> 00:41:22.720
Do not allow it to happen to you.

707
00:41:23.600 --> 00:41:24.800
Do not allow it to happen.

708
00:41:24.800 --> 00:41:27.840
If it's people, if it's family members,

709
00:41:27.840 --> 00:41:30.240
obviously you don't wanna see them as the enemy

710
00:41:30.240 --> 00:41:31.840
but you have to understand

711
00:41:31.840 --> 00:41:36.840
that what's working through them is the enemy, all right?

712
00:41:36.920 --> 00:41:38.840
And how do you combat that?

713
00:41:38.840 --> 00:41:39.840
Boundaries.

714
00:41:43.520 --> 00:41:45.280
You put down some boundaries.

715
00:41:46.140 --> 00:41:49.280
Hey, you know, I know you want me to do XYZ

716
00:41:49.280 --> 00:41:52.520
for you all the time but I can't

717
00:41:53.320 --> 00:41:54.560
because see, I've committed to this.

718
00:41:54.560 --> 00:41:57.960
This is what's important over here for me in this season

719
00:41:57.960 --> 00:42:00.560
and I've gotta do it and I hope you'll understand.

720
00:42:04.540 --> 00:42:09.040
If you're helping with aging parents, God will make a way.

721
00:42:09.040 --> 00:42:11.680
If you're raising children, God will make a way

722
00:42:14.120 --> 00:42:17.680
because we have to commit to the things

723
00:42:17.680 --> 00:42:21.360
that God has placed in our path to give us that upgrade.

724
00:42:21.360 --> 00:42:22.720
We have to commit to them.

725
00:42:24.840 --> 00:42:27.640
We have to fully commit to them and we have to show up

726
00:42:27.640 --> 00:42:29.240
even when we don't feel like it.

727
00:42:32.400 --> 00:42:33.800
Because here's the other thing that I wanna tell you

728
00:42:33.800 --> 00:42:38.200
about the business conference and the idea that only 1%.

729
00:42:38.200 --> 00:42:39.280
Guess what?

730
00:42:39.280 --> 00:42:41.840
A lot of that 1% are not believers.

731
00:42:44.200 --> 00:42:46.080
You're like, well, I don't understand.

732
00:42:46.080 --> 00:42:47.800
Why would God prosper people?

733
00:42:47.840 --> 00:42:51.640
You guys, remember, it's about discipline.

734
00:42:55.600 --> 00:42:57.960
Even someone who doesn't know the Lord

735
00:42:59.280 --> 00:43:02.360
and does not have that supernatural undergirding,

736
00:43:02.360 --> 00:43:05.320
if they apply what I'm talking about here,

737
00:43:05.320 --> 00:43:07.400
they stay focused and they stay disciplined

738
00:43:07.400 --> 00:43:09.880
and they don't give up, they're going to succeed

739
00:43:10.800 --> 00:43:12.040
with or without God.

740
00:43:12.040 --> 00:43:13.440
You need to understand that.

741
00:43:14.420 --> 00:43:17.400
How much more should the people of God be succeeding

742
00:43:18.000 --> 00:43:21.280
because we have grace and we have supernatural insight

743
00:43:21.280 --> 00:43:25.520
and wisdom because we do have the supernatural wind

744
00:43:25.520 --> 00:43:27.560
from heaven at our back.

745
00:43:27.560 --> 00:43:30.560
How much more should we succeed in the things

746
00:43:30.560 --> 00:43:32.760
and the endeavors that we set out to do?

747
00:43:39.760 --> 00:43:40.800
How much more?

748
00:43:40.840 --> 00:43:43.840
So one thing, oh, you guys, it's 747 here right now

749
00:43:43.840 --> 00:43:46.040
in Las Vegas.

750
00:43:46.040 --> 00:43:51.040
When I see 747, it reminds me of the biggest commercial

751
00:43:51.040 --> 00:43:52.440
planes that were built.

752
00:43:52.440 --> 00:43:54.000
I know that there are different planes now,

753
00:43:54.000 --> 00:43:57.400
but back in the day, the 747s were the planes

754
00:43:57.400 --> 00:44:00.760
that took the most amount of people the furthest distance.

755
00:44:03.560 --> 00:44:05.360
And every time I see that, I'm like,

756
00:44:05.360 --> 00:44:07.360
oh my God, that's a lot of people.

757
00:44:08.360 --> 00:44:11.680
And every time I see that, it's a reminder of this movement

758
00:44:13.680 --> 00:44:16.320
of God saying, hey, here's a vehicle

759
00:44:16.320 --> 00:44:19.400
that's going to take a lot of people great distances.

760
00:44:22.120 --> 00:44:25.120
That's a word that we got at the beginning of this movement.

761
00:44:26.200 --> 00:44:31.200
And so you guys, come on, get on, be fully in.

762
00:44:31.440 --> 00:44:32.640
Be fully in.

763
00:44:36.360 --> 00:44:38.840
This is your last year single.

764
00:44:38.840 --> 00:44:41.000
God brought you here to have success

765
00:44:41.000 --> 00:44:43.480
in this area of your life because He is looking

766
00:44:43.480 --> 00:44:45.360
for kingdom marriages and alliances

767
00:44:45.360 --> 00:44:46.760
to change the world through.

768
00:44:49.640 --> 00:44:54.640
Partnerships that can speak to world problems

769
00:44:54.640 --> 00:44:58.760
and end demonic issues in the earth

770
00:44:58.760 --> 00:45:00.480
through.

771
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:01.340
lineage and legacy.

772
00:45:02.800 --> 00:45:06.980
He has recruited you to be one of those people,

773
00:45:08.200 --> 00:45:09.320
but you gotta show up.

774
00:45:10.840 --> 00:45:12.060
You gotta do the work.

775
00:45:14.180 --> 00:45:15.840
So for those of you that are new,

776
00:45:15.840 --> 00:45:18.160
commit to at least a year.

777
00:45:18.160 --> 00:45:19.040
Do not give up.

778
00:45:19.040 --> 00:45:21.120
It's your last year single.

779
00:45:21.120 --> 00:45:23.080
For those of you that have been around for a while,

780
00:45:23.080 --> 00:45:26.280
commit to actually pressing in and pushing in

781
00:45:26.280 --> 00:45:29.880
and giving God the pen and allowing him to write the story.

782
00:45:29.880 --> 00:45:32.640
You're like, Jackie, but no, you haven't.

783
00:45:32.640 --> 00:45:33.720
I've watched you.

784
00:45:34.880 --> 00:45:37.440
You turn down people because they're not

785
00:45:37.440 --> 00:45:39.240
what you're looking for or thinking about.

786
00:45:39.240 --> 00:45:41.220
And I'm just gonna go ahead and say it like it is

787
00:45:41.220 --> 00:45:43.600
because I want all of you to be successful.

788
00:45:43.600 --> 00:45:45.140
But some of you that are older

789
00:45:45.140 --> 00:45:48.760
are the worst culprits of this.

790
00:45:50.100 --> 00:45:54.040
You're set in your ways and you do not want a partner.

791
00:45:54.040 --> 00:45:56.640
You want a companion that fits into the life

792
00:45:56.640 --> 00:45:58.840
that you have already created for yourself.

793
00:46:00.400 --> 00:46:01.960
You just wanna add another person

794
00:46:01.960 --> 00:46:04.040
to what you're already doing in life.

795
00:46:04.040 --> 00:46:08.280
You're comfortable in what you are doing

796
00:46:08.280 --> 00:46:12.440
and where you are in your daily routine.

797
00:46:12.440 --> 00:46:13.900
You know, back in the day,

798
00:46:13.900 --> 00:46:16.300
we would call it being stuck in your ways.

799
00:46:17.340 --> 00:46:18.800
You're stuck in your ways.

800
00:46:19.960 --> 00:46:21.800
I'm just gonna tell you this right now.

801
00:46:21.800 --> 00:46:23.400
If you wanna be married, it's gonna stretch you.

802
00:46:23.400 --> 00:46:24.280
It's gonna change you.

803
00:46:24.280 --> 00:46:25.520
It's supposed to.

804
00:46:25.520 --> 00:46:27.600
You're not gonna have the same life that you have

805
00:46:27.600 --> 00:46:29.840
as a single person, as a married person.

806
00:46:30.680 --> 00:46:33.000
And if you don't want that, then you're in the wrong place.

807
00:46:34.880 --> 00:46:36.360
You're gonna have to give up some things.

808
00:46:36.360 --> 00:46:38.720
You're gonna have to take some risks.

809
00:46:38.720 --> 00:46:40.120
You're just going to have to.

810
00:46:40.120 --> 00:46:43.100
That's what this adventure is that you're on.

811
00:46:47.200 --> 00:46:48.440
That's what it is.

812
00:46:51.760 --> 00:46:54.000
I know we used to always think that all the older men

813
00:46:54.000 --> 00:46:55.760
want the younger women, but I'm gonna tell you what.

814
00:46:55.760 --> 00:46:58.880
These older women up in this mug, in this group,

815
00:46:58.920 --> 00:47:00.280
they want the younger men.

816
00:47:02.520 --> 00:47:03.920
They don't want the men their own age.

817
00:47:03.920 --> 00:47:07.560
Like, oh no, he's too old for me.

818
00:47:07.560 --> 00:47:09.440
He's exactly your age, ma'am.

819
00:47:10.400 --> 00:47:14.920
I know, but you know, men are not as active.

820
00:47:14.920 --> 00:47:17.200
He runs three miles a day.

821
00:47:17.200 --> 00:47:19.760
Oh, I know, but stop.

822
00:47:23.040 --> 00:47:24.800
If the fear that you have in your heart

823
00:47:24.800 --> 00:47:27.340
is that you're gonna have to be a caretaker for someone,

824
00:47:27.340 --> 00:47:28.980
you're gonna marry a man who's older,

825
00:47:28.980 --> 00:47:30.740
and then you're gonna be a nurse maid for him

826
00:47:30.740 --> 00:47:33.940
as he's dying, snap out of it.

827
00:47:36.980 --> 00:47:38.340
Come on, you guys.

828
00:47:38.340 --> 00:47:40.400
There's all different types of objections

829
00:47:40.400 --> 00:47:43.300
that all of us use to actually getting to

830
00:47:43.300 --> 00:47:46.100
are the final destination that God has for us.

831
00:47:46.100 --> 00:47:48.740
There's all kinds of excuses and justifications

832
00:47:48.740 --> 00:47:53.740
that we make up to keep us from going forward into success.

833
00:47:54.260 --> 00:47:55.660
We got to let go of them.

834
00:47:56.540 --> 00:47:57.940
It's time to let go of them.

835
00:48:00.700 --> 00:48:02.060
All of you have favorite ones,

836
00:48:02.060 --> 00:48:03.540
and you keep telling yourself,

837
00:48:03.540 --> 00:48:06.660
like a broken record over and over and over again.

838
00:48:06.660 --> 00:48:07.580
Well, I'll do it later.

839
00:48:07.580 --> 00:48:08.900
I'll do it when I have more time.

840
00:48:08.900 --> 00:48:10.420
I'll do it when I have more money.

841
00:48:10.420 --> 00:48:13.660
You're never gonna have more time or more money

842
00:48:13.660 --> 00:48:15.420
if you don't do it.

843
00:48:16.340 --> 00:48:19.020
Let me tell you something about money and time, okay?

844
00:48:19.020 --> 00:48:20.820
I know a lot of people say time is money,

845
00:48:20.820 --> 00:48:22.100
but that's not true.

846
00:48:22.100 --> 00:48:23.340
Time is life.

847
00:48:23.340 --> 00:48:26.100
Your life is measured by time.

848
00:48:26.100 --> 00:48:27.300
Time is not money.

849
00:48:27.300 --> 00:48:29.020
Time is life.

850
00:48:29.020 --> 00:48:32.300
And so a lot of you, if you have the mindset

851
00:48:32.300 --> 00:48:35.060
that you're gonna do everything in life

852
00:48:35.060 --> 00:48:36.980
with the focus of saving money,

853
00:48:36.980 --> 00:48:39.580
you're actually going to be instead wasting life.

854
00:48:40.900 --> 00:48:41.820
Write that down.

855
00:48:44.860 --> 00:48:47.180
Those two things are both resources.

856
00:48:47.180 --> 00:48:49.460
Only one of them is unrenewable.

857
00:48:49.460 --> 00:48:52.020
And that's the one that's gonna save you money.

858
00:48:52.780 --> 00:48:53.620
And that is time.

859
00:48:54.420 --> 00:48:55.460
I had to learn this, y'all,

860
00:48:55.460 --> 00:48:56.980
because I had a poverty mindset.

861
00:48:56.980 --> 00:48:59.700
I was always trying to DIY everything.

862
00:48:59.700 --> 00:49:01.740
A lot of people will even come into this community

863
00:49:01.740 --> 00:49:02.860
and they'll hear a couple of things.

864
00:49:02.860 --> 00:49:04.380
I'm like, oh yeah, I've heard some of this.

865
00:49:04.380 --> 00:49:06.180
I've heard stuff like this before.

866
00:49:06.180 --> 00:49:09.020
I'll just go and I'll pray and I'll figure it out myself.

867
00:49:09.020 --> 00:49:11.380
Yeah, and you'll be single next year.

868
00:49:14.340 --> 00:49:15.860
Because there's a supernatural grace here

869
00:49:15.860 --> 00:49:18.660
that God's given us and he led you to a solution.

870
00:49:18.660 --> 00:49:21.780
And now you have to work the process.

871
00:49:22.860 --> 00:49:24.500
That leads to that solution.

872
00:49:26.060 --> 00:49:27.780
I've tried to DIY a lot of things

873
00:49:27.780 --> 00:49:30.100
instead of just paying for the person

874
00:49:30.100 --> 00:49:33.580
who did the 10,000 hours of mastery.

875
00:49:36.260 --> 00:49:37.100
And guess what?

876
00:49:37.100 --> 00:49:39.140
All those projects are laying around my house somewhere

877
00:49:39.140 --> 00:49:40.940
half finished because I got to a point

878
00:49:40.940 --> 00:49:43.060
where I couldn't figure it out anymore.

879
00:49:43.060 --> 00:49:43.900
What did I do?

880
00:49:43.900 --> 00:49:46.580
I just wasted my time and I wasted my life.

881
00:49:47.900 --> 00:49:50.260
The money's renewable, you guys.

882
00:49:50.260 --> 00:49:51.420
Can I tell you something?

883
00:49:51.820 --> 00:49:52.940
No money has left the earth.

884
00:49:52.940 --> 00:49:54.380
All the money is still here.

885
00:49:55.740 --> 00:49:58.620
All the money is still here on the earth.

886
00:49:58.620 --> 00:50:00.100
It did not go anywhere.

887
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:04.160
It's here but you know what else? It's in the hands of the wrong people.

888
00:50:04.160 --> 00:50:08.960
And you know why? Because they're disciplined and they did 10,000 hours of ministry.

889
00:50:11.600 --> 00:50:15.520
Not because they love Jesus. They're doing all kinds of debauch with that money.

890
00:50:18.880 --> 00:50:21.360
Aren't you tired of the resources being in the wrong hands?

891
00:50:21.360 --> 00:50:31.520
Aren't you tired of not having the things that you need to accomplish something great in your life?

892
00:50:33.360 --> 00:50:39.280
Yeah, I'm tired for you and I'm tired for myself. There's areas where I'm still having to show up

893
00:50:39.280 --> 00:50:43.760
and be disciplined and you can make all kinds of excuses. I could say, oh well, it's menopause.

894
00:50:44.560 --> 00:50:50.560
There's nothing I can do about it. Yeah, of course I have high blood sugar. I'm insulin

895
00:50:50.560 --> 00:50:56.960
resistant. Of course I have high blood pressure. I got menopause. You know, this is what happens.

896
00:50:56.960 --> 00:51:04.160
Okay. You don't think it could kind of be like, you know, all those ding-dongs that you ate?

897
00:51:08.400 --> 00:51:12.320
By the way, you are what you eat. Ding-dong. You know, don't you think?

898
00:51:14.080 --> 00:51:19.360
Jackie, don't you think? It's the fact that the pedometer on your phone says that you took

899
00:51:19.360 --> 00:51:30.400
exactly 856 steps today. You know what that means? That means that I just walked from one

900
00:51:30.400 --> 00:51:38.640
place to sit to another all day long. So you guys, we can blame it. Yeah, but menopause does have

901
00:51:38.640 --> 00:51:44.480
something to do with it. It does. Okay. I'm so sweaty right now. It's not funny, but I will tell

902
00:51:44.480 --> 00:51:50.960
you this. There are people that have put the mastery in to finding the solutions for your

903
00:51:50.960 --> 00:51:56.080
problem. And I'm leaning into those people in that area of my life and trying to, you know,

904
00:51:56.080 --> 00:52:01.360
balance my hormones, trying to get the things that I need to be successful in this stage and season

905
00:52:01.360 --> 00:52:08.000
of my life. And I know this, friends, God has brought you here. There's eight plus billion

906
00:52:08.000 --> 00:52:12.880
people in the world, you guys, and there's only about 1300 people in this program. God brought

907
00:52:12.880 --> 00:52:20.720
you here. He led you here. You did not come here by accident. You came here by divine providence.

908
00:52:21.680 --> 00:52:26.800
And the solutions to some of the things that you need are here and not just your last,

909
00:52:26.800 --> 00:52:31.760
your single. You guys already know that the breakthrough that's here is way more than that.

910
00:52:31.760 --> 00:52:36.000
It's breaking through into your identity. It's breaking through into prosperity. It's breaking

911
00:52:36.000 --> 00:52:42.480
through into your relationship with God, yourself, others. The heart work works in every area of your

912
00:52:42.480 --> 00:52:51.360
life, but you have to do the work. You can't just say, oh, it's not working and you're not showing up

913
00:52:51.360 --> 00:52:56.000
and you're not receiving the words from the Lord and you're not then acting on the words from the

914
00:52:56.000 --> 00:53:03.360
Lord. You have to do all those things. Trust me, I've lived this and I'm continuing to live it.

915
00:53:04.080 --> 00:53:11.280
And even after you get married, you guys, marriage is hard work. It is in the year 2025. No marriage

916
00:53:11.280 --> 00:53:20.800
is going to be without hard work to stay connected, to stay focused, to not be distracted from this

917
00:53:20.800 --> 00:53:29.920
relationship that you've waited for for so long. I knew a couple that wanted a child. They wanted

918
00:53:30.480 --> 00:53:35.680
children so badly, you guys. I mean, so, so badly. And they couldn't, they were struggling with

919
00:53:35.680 --> 00:53:42.880
infertility and IVF, all the things didn't work. And so they decided to adopt. And so they adopted

920
00:53:42.880 --> 00:53:50.480
children and, you know, wealthy, you know, two incomes, wealthy people. And that's what happens

921
00:53:50.480 --> 00:53:55.600
when you don't have kids, you know, you can go out, you can pursue all these things. But then

922
00:53:55.600 --> 00:54:02.640
they got the kids that they adopted and then they just put them in daycare. They got the kids.

923
00:54:02.640 --> 00:54:07.440
And then instead of being with them, and it'd be one thing if you had to, because you needed the

924
00:54:07.440 --> 00:54:15.040
money, but this is the equivalent, you guys, of wanting something, but not being willing to change

925
00:54:15.040 --> 00:54:22.240
your life to have it. Not being willing to make room in your life for it. Things have to change,

926
00:54:22.240 --> 00:54:28.240
you guys. They have to. I promise you this life that you've been dreaming about,

927
00:54:28.240 --> 00:54:31.200
it does not fit into the life that you have right now.

928
00:54:34.160 --> 00:54:38.480
But if you begin to take the steps, you begin to do the things, you begin to follow the

929
00:54:38.480 --> 00:54:45.120
instructions that we have here for you, you will make room and God will fill that space that you're

930
00:54:45.120 --> 00:54:50.080
making with the desire of your heart. Father God, we thank you for your goodness. We thank you for

931
00:54:50.080 --> 00:54:55.120
this message about discipline, about showing up, not just signing up, but showing up in life.

932
00:54:56.880 --> 00:54:59.920
We thank you for this message about your grace.

933
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:02.640
coming upon us and helping us.

934
00:55:02.640 --> 00:55:06.560
As we forge forward, you're forging us on the way.

935
00:55:06.560 --> 00:55:09.240
You're helping us to become who we need to be

936
00:55:09.240 --> 00:55:12.120
to be able to receive your promises.

937
00:55:12.120 --> 00:55:15.200
You're stretching us, you're molding us, you're shaping us.

938
00:55:15.200 --> 00:55:18.980
You love us so very much, you want good things for us.

939
00:55:18.980 --> 00:55:23.120
There is nothing that we cannot do if we do it with you.

940
00:55:23.120 --> 00:55:24.780
And so Lord, we thank you for that.

941
00:55:24.780 --> 00:55:27.400
I ask God that you would just give us a supernatural grace

942
00:55:27.400 --> 00:55:30.580
to just grab a hold of this word this morning

943
00:55:30.580 --> 00:55:32.700
and begin to walk with it.

944
00:55:32.700 --> 00:55:35.640
Even if we can only take one or two steps forward,

945
00:55:35.640 --> 00:55:37.780
just as long as we're moving Lord.

946
00:55:37.780 --> 00:55:40.020
And as we take one or two steps forward

947
00:55:40.020 --> 00:55:42.980
that you'll give us the strength to take the next two

948
00:55:44.020 --> 00:55:46.180
and the next two and the next two

949
00:55:46.180 --> 00:55:49.380
until pretty soon we're walking without interruption.

950
00:55:49.380 --> 00:55:53.060
And then pretty soon we're running without being weary.

951
00:55:53.060 --> 00:55:54.700
And so Lord, we just thank you for that.

952
00:55:54.700 --> 00:55:57.760
We thank you that you have called us

953
00:55:57.760 --> 00:56:00.920
to have dominion in the earth,

954
00:56:00.920 --> 00:56:03.040
that you've given that to us,

955
00:56:03.040 --> 00:56:05.880
that we are supposed to be the influencers here.

956
00:56:05.880 --> 00:56:08.800
We are supposed to be the lenders and not the borrowers.

957
00:56:08.800 --> 00:56:11.360
We are supposed to be above and not beneath.

958
00:56:11.360 --> 00:56:13.000
Lord, we just declare that right now

959
00:56:13.000 --> 00:56:15.200
that we wanna step into that space

960
00:56:15.200 --> 00:56:17.000
as your children in the earth,

961
00:56:17.000 --> 00:56:20.480
showing people what heaven looks like through our lives,

962
00:56:20.480 --> 00:56:22.680
through our finances, through our relationships,

963
00:56:22.680 --> 00:56:26.180
through our health, through our parenting,

964
00:56:26.180 --> 00:56:29.260
through our gifts and talents that you've given us.

965
00:56:29.260 --> 00:56:31.540
We want to do that.

966
00:56:31.540 --> 00:56:34.780
Lord, I even pray right now that that transfer of wealth

967
00:56:34.780 --> 00:56:36.380
that the Bible talks about

968
00:56:36.380 --> 00:56:40.020
where the wicked have laid up resources for the righteous.

969
00:56:40.020 --> 00:56:44.540
Papa, I am asking that you would begin to show your children

970
00:56:44.540 --> 00:56:47.020
how to claim that,

971
00:56:47.020 --> 00:56:50.100
how to claim what it is that you have for us, Lord.

972
00:56:50.120 --> 00:56:52.080
The resources that we need

973
00:56:52.080 --> 00:56:54.480
in order to change people's lives,

974
00:56:54.480 --> 00:56:57.240
the resources that we need in order to build the things

975
00:56:57.240 --> 00:57:00.920
that you've placed in our hearts that change people's lives,

976
00:57:00.920 --> 00:57:02.020
that help people,

977
00:57:02.020 --> 00:57:03.960
that speak to problems like trafficking

978
00:57:03.960 --> 00:57:06.120
and homelessness to poverty,

979
00:57:06.120 --> 00:57:09.160
that speak to problems like racism,

980
00:57:09.160 --> 00:57:12.960
that speak to problems like clean water

981
00:57:12.960 --> 00:57:16.680
and living conditions in third world countries.

982
00:57:16.680 --> 00:57:19.360
God, all the things that speak to the problem

983
00:57:19.380 --> 00:57:21.340
of all the orphans in the earth,

984
00:57:21.340 --> 00:57:23.660
that speak to fostering and adoption,

985
00:57:23.660 --> 00:57:26.620
that speak to everything that you have given people

986
00:57:26.620 --> 00:57:28.140
and placed in their heart,

987
00:57:28.140 --> 00:57:31.460
that speak to the issues of people's health

988
00:57:31.460 --> 00:57:33.580
and wanting to help people to get better

989
00:57:33.580 --> 00:57:36.340
and to live healthy lives,

990
00:57:37.580 --> 00:57:40.220
getting rid of all disease and dis-ease from people.

991
00:57:40.220 --> 00:57:42.300
Lord, whatever it is that you've placed

992
00:57:42.300 --> 00:57:44.460
in your kids' hearts, God,

993
00:57:44.460 --> 00:57:48.540
there is resources for that on the other side of discipline.

994
00:57:48.560 --> 00:57:51.360
So help us to not give up, to not give in,

995
00:57:51.360 --> 00:57:54.600
to press forward in Jesus' name, amen.

996
00:57:56.040 --> 00:57:57.880
All right, y'all, love you so much.

997
00:57:57.880 --> 00:57:59.060
Have a great day.

998
00:57:59.060 --> 00:58:01.600
Sunday night activation tomorrow at eight, bye-bye.
