T.D. Jakes Sermons Nothing You've Been Through Will Be Wasted Part 1 - The Potter’s House of Dallas · THE WORLD'S BEST PREACHER

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: The congregation was in flight. You ain't never seen such
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: flapping going on in a place.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: In all of your life.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: I mean big old, long arms and short arms, little
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: skinny arms and fat arms. It was everything was just
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: flapping in this place. That was an out or sign
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: of an inner conviction to rise to the height of
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: your calling, spread your possibilities, and soar above your adversities,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: and fly like the eagle you were created to be.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Look at you ever say I'm an eagle deceased five
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: From time to time I hear people writing to me,
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: or they'll hit me up on Twitter, and they say,
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: I went through five years and got wasted. I gave
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: ten years into that relationship. It was wasted. I worked
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: for that company twenty years. It was wasted.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: You are wrong.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: This message says nothing that you've been through shall be wasted.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Stop mourning over where you've been, and use it to
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: get on with getting on with getting on to where
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: you're going. Nothing that you've been through shall be wasted.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: You can always tell. When God stirs a ness, all
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: hell breaks hoose, And like the little eglet, when the
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: nest first gets stirred, the little eglot tries to sit
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: where it used to sit, and it has to bump
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: to jump up, tries to sit over again, and it
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: has to jump up, and it has tries to sit again,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: It tries. Just because something doesn't work in your life
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: doesn't mean you're up under satanic attack. I'm gonna say
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: that again. Just because something doesn't work in your life
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: doesn't mean you're up under satanic attack. It could be
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: possible that you're trying to rest in where God used
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: to be. Seeing yourself through the lens of who you
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: were will stop you from seeing yourself through the lens
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: of who God called you to be. And sometimes God
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: has to stir the nest because the purpose of that person, place,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: or thing in your life has been completed. There's nothing
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: more frustrating than trying to raise up something that God
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: is trying to kill, nothing more frustrating than trying to
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: be somebody that God is trying to crucify. You have
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: to have the liquidity of thought, the liquidity of thought,
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: and the nimbleness of mine to transition from how you
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: once saw yourself into where God is calling you. If
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: you saw yourself as a sedentary eaglet sitting in a
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: nest in joy, and the comfort of your nest. It's
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: hard to see yourself soaring.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: After all. Soaring is more work.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: Requires more muscles, requires more effort. You expend more energy.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: It's easier to lay back in your nest. If you
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: feed me, feed me, love me, love me, ignolge me,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: open door for me, make a way for me. Me
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: me me, me, me me me, And all of a sudden,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: the food stops. When the food stops is assigned for
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: you to move on. Mama's not dropping it in your
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: mouth as good as it was. I rebuke the powers
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: of the devil. I come against it.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: Can't you see the little egoist praying.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: I come against sayan power in the name of Jesus,
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: I come against I rebuke the powers and the principalities
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: over this region. Mama should have been here right now.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: I come against a sayan you delaying my blessing. You're
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: holding up my blessing. I rebuke the power where mama.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: Mama should have been there. I rebuked the power that prinsonbody,
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: that holding it. My prayed and prayed and prayer. What
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: it now when you prayed and it doesn't work, when
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: you rebuked it and it.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Doesn't stop you're find yourself. I'm hungry, the food ain't
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: coming in. Here comes the problems, and the thorns are
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: coming up, and I don't have the nourishment to rest
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: in the place I used to be. I don't have
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: the grace to do it. Always knew when something was over,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: I just didn't have the grace.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: To do it.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: The grace, grace will cover your eyes against what you're
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: going through and and and make it easier to manage
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: because you don't feel the weight of it when you
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: have the grace to do it, when you have the
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: grace to work two or three jobs, when when you
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: had the grace to do it, it didn't bother you
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: like it would bother you because you got a grace
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: to do You got a grace to put up with
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: something that other people couldn't put up with. You got
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: the grace to do it. But but, but but when
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: that grace stops, and all of a sudden, you notice
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: those thorns and thistles start coming up. Now you gotta
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: move into another dimension. And Moses, thorns and thistles was
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: the murdering of an Egyptian man, and and and and
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: his people knowing it and talking about it and and
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: rising up against him and not letting him forget of
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: what he did. What he did. People, people will attack you.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: They were all bring up what you did. You have
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: to live with what you did all your life. That's
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: why you ought to be careful what you do. That's good.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: That's a tweetable quote, right there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: That right there, that right there, sa if somebody said that.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: Right there.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: They were bringing up what he did. And all of
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: a sudden he had to get out of the nest,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: leave the palace and the marble floors and the gold
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: columns and the big fans, and the grapes being fed
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: to him, wine being served to him, somebody to bathe him,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: somebody to teach him, somebody to train him, somebody to
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: take care of him. All of that shut down, and
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: he escapes into the desert, a dry place, a bearing place,
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: And while running from his past, he runs into his purpose.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: While escaping how he was once to find, he now
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: runs into a new identity that he never had before.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: What what would the correct term for it is is?
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Is?
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: It is is an epiphany whereby you you begin to
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: have an awakening to to something that that you didn't
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: know is spiritual. An epiphany can be a spiritual awakening,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: whereby it changes the lens through which you see everything
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: going forward. You don't have that every day. You don't
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: have that every you don't have that every week. Just periodically,
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: in the space of your whole life, you have those
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: spiritual awakenings that change. Say, in his case, the next
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: forty years of his life was changed by one moment.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: One moment change the next forty years of his life.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: A bad moment, an eagle stirring moment, has placed him
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: the wilderness, and all of a sudden, he doesn't know
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: who he is.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: This is a big deal because his identity has always
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: been a problem. He was a Hebrew boy, but he
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: didn't grow up with the Hebrews. He was a Hebrew
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: boy raised with the Egyptians. He was already up under
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: an identity crisis. He was too Hebrew to be Egyptian
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: and to Egyptian to be Hebrew. I want to talk
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: to people whose background is complicated. I want to talk
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: to people whose resume has to be censored.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: Let me try them. They don't understand.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: I want to talk to people who only tell half
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: your testimony. There are certain parts of your testimony that
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: are available for human consumption. Look at somebody say, but
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: it's complicated. Let me just try something. Daddy was a
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: good man, but it's complicated. Mama was a good mother,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: But it's complicated. I grew up a happy child. But
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: it's complicated. Whenever you hear people throw that butt in there,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: there are some extenuating circumstances. Means I can tell you
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: about this party. All in all, it was good, but
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: there was some other stuff that I don't want to
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: bring up. But that other stuff helps to shape who
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: I am just as much as the good stuff helps.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Oh God help me. And Moses was his own man.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: He was strong and mighty. He'd been raised. He was strong,
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: he was powerful, he was educated, he was intellectual. He
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: was respected in Egypt. But but but he wasn't really
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: truly an Egyptian. And though he was raised with him,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: he really wasn't one of them. And he was a
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Hebrew to a degree. And yes, he was a Hebrew,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: but it wasn't like he could go hang out with
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: the Hebrews because Hebrews didn't like him, because he had
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: the smell of the Egyptians on him.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: He had to he had got the nerve to have
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: an Egyptian accent.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Oh, you don't talk like one of us, You talk
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: like you you an Egyptian. You know how people will
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: hear your speech and say you talk like the other people.
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: Still to come on the Potter's touch.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: He had robes, he couldn't wear jewelry. He didn't need
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: training in science.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: That is totally unusable in this environment because all information
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: is not transferable from one world into the next. You
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: understand what one saying this is not that. So you cannot
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: come over into this and.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: Act like that and stay.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: If you're gonna survive in this, you have to give
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: up that and become a student again.
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: Don't settle in your nest when you should be sorry,
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: it's time to fly.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: Every time I try to sit out who have less
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: than what I was created to me? Some sticks mean
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: I gotta get up and try and dad.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: There are certain situations that God will make so unbearable
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: that you don't have to discern that it's time to go.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: It's almost impossible to stay.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: What's wrong with you is all those people who knew
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: you win. They come if they know you win, they'll
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: hold you the back dead.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: I gotta girl.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: Don't let the counterfeit experience of being good stop you
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: from the pursuit of greatness.
• 12:03

• 12:29
  Speaker 1: I love to hear married couple talk about how long
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: they've been married. We've been married for fifty years. And
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: people always clap, you know, they always clap, you know,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: they clap, you know, and they say they've been happily
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: married for fifty years. They lying, Yes, I said it.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: I said it. I'm in it, and I'm here to
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: represent it. You ain't been happily nothing for fifty years,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Not for fifty years. No, not every day and every
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: week and every minute and every moment for fifty years.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: You know, you're telling us about the good part. You're
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: not telling us about the tough part. You're not telling
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: us about When she spent the money that she was
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: saving up for something else. She went out, and you're
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: not telling us about the extra pocket books up under
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: the bed and the shoes, and y'all fussing about that.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: You're not talking about that new secretary he got and
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: why she stand up looking at you in the face
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: like she looking at you. You're not talking about he
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: always spent all the money and he don't take care
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: of business, and you ain't talking about that. You married
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: a mama's boy and you're sinking him over your mama's
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: house all the time. But y'all tuck it out and
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: you made it over and you saw I know you
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: married people can't say nothing because you can't blow your cover.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: But there's some divorced people.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: In here that have gotten my bye.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm talking about.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: It bothers me because if you buy that blogna that
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: people serve out, you'll expect to see that in your life.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: And if it doesn't work like that for you, you'll
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: give up on it because you're expecting.
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: It to be like what you saw on TV. But
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: in real life, you got to go through some ups
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: and downs, and some crooks and some granted and sometimes
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: it stay together, but it's complicated. And you you own
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: the house, but it's complicated. They come in my house
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: all the time they say, oh, look at your house.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: You own this.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: I said, yeah, this month, I owned this month.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: Thank you to you.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: I owned this month. So far I own it right now. Oh, y'all,
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: don't hear what I'm saying to you.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: I own it. But it's compliment. Hated I own it.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: But they got the notes.
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: And now.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: As messed up and complicated as his life is, now
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: that's been messed up, bad has gotten worse. That's why
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: you got to watch out about complaining about bad, because
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: it was kind of complicated in the palace. It might
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: have been bad because on the inside he had some
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: deficiencies and insecurities and areas where he didn't really feel
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: like he totally belonged. But he was eating good and
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: he was sleeping good, and they was cleaning up the
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: room and washing his clothes and pressing his little undies
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: and stuff. It was real good. It was good considering,
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: you know, what all he'd been through. He had a
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: little bad stuff to kind of fight, but he was
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: throwing pretty good. And then bad got worse, and now
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: the eagle has stirred the nest, and he has to
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: climb out of the nest and start running through the wilderness,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: running through running through a wilderness he had never been
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: in before. He didn't know nothing about survival techniques for
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: the wilderness. He was raised in the palace, and there
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: he is out there in the wilderness, trying to figure out, now,
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: which plant can you eat? How do you get water
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: in the desert? He didn't know the which cactus you
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: could you could sunk the water out of.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: And he had to figure it.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: All out because he was in a new place. How
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: has life ever put you in a new place? And
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: and and and and and you don't know how to
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: function in this new environment. And what was complicated has
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: become a crisis. Now he's free from favor. Favor is
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: behind him, No no problems there, got that straightened out.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: They're trying to kill him. He escaped.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: All they got the.
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: Victory, They got the who you know, victory?
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: Victory? What I'm i e?
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: Have you ever had the victory in one place and
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: all hell breaking loose in.
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: The other place? And and you could you could shout
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: about this part over here. You sure did beat that
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: old fayroh out, but but things, I don't know what
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: in the world I'm gonna do here. The little got
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: the little situation coming up on the fifth and he
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: was in the desert, and God left him in the
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: desert for forty years. He wander around out there and
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: ran into some Midian knights and Jethro, and Jethro kind
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: of took him up under the wings said, no, eat that,
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: that'll kill you.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: Eat that right there? Is that right there. When you
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: get hungr out there in the woods, you eat that.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: You dig that up and suck the roots and get
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: some moisture out of it to be able to survive.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: In that environment. Shout. I didn't. I didn't learn that
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: in all my schooling. H They didn't.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: They didn't teach me anything about what what route to
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: sunk water out of, how to guard myself against the
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: heat of the sun, how to survive in a dry place.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: I didn't.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: I didn't know nothing about that. And he got to
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: hang around jet Row. Jet Row said, I got some
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: work for you to do.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: Work. What is work? Do you not know?
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: I have been raised in favor of house. We had
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: people working for us, and all of a sudden he's
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: introduced to work, and of all things to be introduced
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: to do. I mean he he had robes, he couldn't
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: wear jewelry, he didn't need training in science. That is
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: totally unusable in this environment because all information is not
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: transferable from one world into the next. You understand one
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: saying this is not that. So you cannot come over
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: into this and act like that and stay. If you're
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: gonna survive in this, you have to give up that
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: and become a student again. You can't be important out
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: of your element and walk around with your chest stuck out.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: Just because you were successful over there playing football, don't
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: make you a star over here having church. Just because
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: you're successful in church, that makes you successful at Nassa.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: Anytime you step into a new arena, you gotta humble yourself.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: And become a student again.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: So he's over there walking around like the Prince of Egypt,
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: all important, and Jeff throw asked him to go out
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: there and shovel that sheep dung. And this is the
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: test of pride, the test of pride. Can you do
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: what you gotta do where the Lord has placed you
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: to learn what you've got to learn so you can
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: move from one level to the next level to the
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: next level. If you don't pass the tests, you'll never
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: complete the class. So you have to keep taking it
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: over and over and over again because you didn't learn
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: what you should have learned the first time.
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: Poor in my preaching too, I'm talking to somebody right now.
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: Jethro told Moses to lead the sheep. Old smelly, dirty,
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: stinky sheep look good on them pictures and stuff. But
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: I was out in Jerusalem and I actually got to
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: go out there where the sheep were. See, when you
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: see them in the picture, you can't smell the picture
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: and stuff. But when you actually go out there where
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: the sheep are, yes, it'll make you carry some glade
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: and some light salt and some pine salt. And you
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: know how white they are in the pictures and stuff
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: in real life. Oh now, now, now, now, now, no, no, no, no,
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: that's photo enhancement.
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: It's a kind of it's not older. It's odor. This
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: is a French term. Yes, indeed, they said bottle this.
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: We're insect aside or something.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: They don't have to worry about mosquitoes. Nothing would want
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: to bite, nothing to smell like that. And he's in
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: this environment, and I know, I know the enemy must
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: have been saying, where is your God? Now you out here?
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: I thought you had a mighty destiny. Your mama call
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: you Moses for being drawn out. I thought there was
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: a king and a mighty man and a general in you.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: And all you going through is survival techniques for a desert.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: You don't even you didn't even come up in. Look
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: at you running around here. You the king of a sheep.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: Every so often, you'll go through a period in your
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: life that seems like all of your real skills are
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: being wasted. It will feel like you're not being used
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: to your highest potential. It will feel like you're living
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: beneath your privilege, And if you're not careful, you will
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: secretly see yourself as a failure because you don't see
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: yourself operating in the way that you dreamed that you would.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: And he's just running around there saying, at least it
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: didn't kill me, and at least I escaped Egypt, and
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: I'm making the best of a bad situation. And all
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: of a sudden, he has an epiphany, just walks up
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: on it. Wasn't fastened for it, wasn't praying for it,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: wasn't talking in tongues, just walked up on it, didn't
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: even be expected, just blew his mind. You know, God
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: is a master of suddenly. I'm gonna say that again.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: If you understand that God is the master of suddenly,
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: that means sometimes your life will take a turn you
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: never even saw coming. It won't be no gradual progress,
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: no evolution that leads to a revolution. It'll be suddenly straightway,
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: immediately out of nowhere. One phone call, one meeting, one person,
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: one time, one job, and your whole life red thing
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: about the next forty years is about to change.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know who I'm.
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: Talking to, but get ready, get ready, get ready, get ready,
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: get ready, get ready, get ready, get ready to get ready,
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: get ready, get ready.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: Thank you for allowing me to just interject the thought
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: or to and we'll continue right after this.
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: Don't settle in your nest when you should be sorry.
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: It's time to fly.
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: Every time I try to sit out, we have less
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: than what I was creating to me. Stake man, gotta
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: get up and fry a day.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: There are certain situations that God would make so unbearable
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: that you don't have to discern that it's time to go.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: It's almost impossible to stay.
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: What's wrong with you is all those people who knew
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: you're win.
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: They cant you.
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: If they know you win, they'll hold you the back.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: Then I gotta go. Don't let the counterfeit experience of
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: being good stop you from the pursuit of greatness.
• 26:29
