Instinct to Increase - Part 2 - The Potter’s House of Dallas · THE WORLD'S BEST PREACHER

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: This might be the message that changes the next 10,
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: 20 years of your life. If you're on the internet,
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: you ought to call somebody. You ought to tweet somebody.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: You ought to text somebody. Tell them you do not
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: want to miss what the bishop is about to share
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: with you this morning. Sometimes it's the littlest things, the
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: slightest adjustments, that if we make the proper adjustment, we
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: can go into another dimension. You can stop a whole
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: car and break it down over a small adjustment. It
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: doesn't have to be a big thing to overthrow you,
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: but if you don't have it, It'll stop you from
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: reaching your destiny. I'm going to be talking this morning
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: about the instinct to increase. The instinct to increase. The
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: instinct to increase. You might not have known heretofore that
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: there is an association between your instinct and and your increase.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: But when I finish with this text today, you're going
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: to be clear about what ought to be happening on
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: the inside to make things change on the outside. Increase
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: is on the outside, but instinct is on the inside.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: And if you don't have instinct on the inside, you
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: can't have increase on the outside. But I got good
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: news for you. You can change it this morning. Greetings
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: in the precious name of our Lord. And I want
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: to give a special shout out to all of you mothers,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: you sheroes, who carry so many crosses and so many
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: loaves for your children and for your spouse. And many
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: of you are taking care of your own mothers and
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: you just wear so many hats and do so many jobs.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: I just pray that God bless you beyond gifts and
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: flowers and cards and all the wonderful things that I
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: hope you have today. I hope you get a spiritual
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: blessing too, that kind of thing that nobody else can
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: give you but God. We're going into a series that
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: we started last week called Open Doors. Many of you
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: are excited about this word. I've shared it around the country.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: It is the instinct to increase. It is so important
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: that you have that instinctivity to understand that God has
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: placed certain things in your hands, certain opportunities, certain gifts,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: certain talents. You are gifted. What you do with that
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: gift and how you use that gift will determine the
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: next part of your life. I want to open a
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: door into the portal of God's wisdom and let you
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: perceive the instinct to increase. Take a look. He gave
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: them five. The same men had the same status, had
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: the same master, and they had something else. They had
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: something else. He gave them talents, all the men talents,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: but they were not the same talents. Five, two, and one.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: One other thing he gave each of them that is
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: not written in the text, but is implied in the text,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: and if you overlook it, you will miss the power
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: of the text. He gave them an opportunity. Amen. There
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: is nothing in the world as wonderful as to have
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: been given an opportunity. So many people wait in the wings,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: chewing at the bit, patting their foot, waiting on an opportunity.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: An opportunity is an invisible thing that if you don't
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: discern it instinctively, it will not be mentioned in the text.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Because opportunities are a matter of perception. You must have
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: a revelation to see a moment as an opportunity. An
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: opportunity will not walk up to you and say, hello ma'am,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: I am an opportunity. And if you're not careful, you
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: will become so distracted by the inequities of life that
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: you won't even notice that the opportunity has been given
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: to you because you are distracted by the comparison to
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: such a dimension that you don't see what is in
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: front of you as an opportunity. I'm going to tell
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: you how deeply veiled an opportunity may become. Opportunities are
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: so often veiled that not only are they invisible, they
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: often come before you in the form of opposition. Did
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: you hear what I said? I said to you that
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: opportunities often come to you draped in the suit of opposition.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: And if you don't perceive it correctly, you won't benefit
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: from it correctly because you don't understand that the opposition
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: is just a suit, but up under the coat is
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: an opportunity. I, I, I, I can't go too deep.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Time won't allow me. But you see, when the waves
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: come in and the winds are blowing and the ocean
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: has produced high waves and you see masses of people
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: jumping in cars, filling up tanks full of gas, trying
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: to get away from what they perceive as an opposition,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: you will see a few people running toward what everybody
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: else is running away from. And they've got surfboards because
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: what is other people's opposition? If you got a surfboard,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: it's an opportunity. And I'm wondering, are you running away
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: from what you think is an opposition because you don't
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: see it correctly as an opportunity? Oh, y'all don't want
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: to talk to me. I walk like this. This is
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: how I do it. I think better when I walk.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: And when I start playing with my coach, you're in
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: real trouble. There's something about my brain and the bottom
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: of my coat that we've been playing around for about
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: 30 some years. Yeah. Yeah. This is my hidden stash. Yeah.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Let's be clear in our understanding of how the master
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: has delegated talents. He has not delegated talents on a
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: preferential basis. No. No. He has given unto them according
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: to their ability. Ah, next point. He has given unto
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: each of them according to their ability, not his preference.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: He didn't prefer one slave above another. He assessed the
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: ability before he released the level of opportunity. He knew
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: what you could handle before he gave it to you.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: So he does not expect you to be excellent on
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: a level you cannot handle. He has assessed your capacity
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: to handle the opportunity before he released you the opportunity
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: so that he doesn't waste a five blessing on a
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: two man. Somebody holler, I can handle it. So if
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: you are a two-capacity person with a two-talent opportunity, all
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: you got to do is work that thing on your level. Yes.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: I don't know who I'm talking to this morning. Frankly,
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: I don't even know what I'm talking about because you
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: have to take the text and cut it to the
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: continuity of your situation. But I do know that the
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Lord woke me up this morning to tell you to
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: work that thing.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: Work it on your level, baby. Work it on your level.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: If you're on a two level, don't complain about being
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: a two, but just stand back and work. Hit your
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: neighbor and tell them, I'm getting ready to work that thing.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Getting ready to work that thing. I'm getting ready to
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: work that thing. I'm getting ready to work that thing.
• 8:25

• 8:31
  Speaker 1: on my level. I'm going to be the baddest 70-year-old woman.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: I'm going to be the baddest 40-year-old man. I'm going
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: to be the toughest 20-year-old you ever saw in your life.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: I can't work with what I don't have, but I'm
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: going to work that thing. on my level somebody shout
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: in this house everybody hear me shout yeah oh yeah

  Speaker 1: to work that thing. I'm not responsible for what God
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: gave you. I'm responsible for what God gave me. And
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: if I perceive it to be mine, don't get mad
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: when I work what he gave me. I'm getting ready
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: to work that thing, baby. Yes, I am. Somebody say, yes,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: I am. Sit down. We're just talking. We're just talking.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: We're just hanging out. It's just you and me at
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Starbucks drinking a latte. Yeah. Stop complaining. because you're getting older.

  Speaker 1: of where you are. Find the joys of what you got.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: Find the joys of this season in your life and
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: work that thing. If you work your youth, work your
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: old age, work your middle age, whatever God gave you,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: work that thing. Work it. Work... Oh, y'all don't hear me.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: If he thought enough of me to give me the opportunity...
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: The least I can do is to work that thing.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: There's nothing worse than somebody who's been given an opportunity
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: and they don't take advantage of the opportunity God gave them.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: And you're jealous of everybody else, but you ought to
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: be angry at yourself because you didn't work what he
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: gave you when he gave it to you on your level.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Work now.
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: Still to come on the potter's touch.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Five guy is thinking how can i make this more
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: two guys saying how can i make this four the
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: one guy is so preoccupied with survival that he misses
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: success because he has a survivalist mentality and he thinks
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: that success is surviving And not succeeding. And that's why
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: his life hasn't gotten any further than it's gone. Because
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: he has misdefined success. Because he sees success. Watch this.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: Through the sunglasses of fear. Masses of people jumping in cars,
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: filling up tanks full of gas, trying to get away
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: from what they perceive as an opposition. You will see
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: a few people running toward what everybody else is running
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: away from because what is other people's opposition is an opportunity.
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: I see an open door. Opportunity lies before me. I've
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: changed my view. The gifts he laid within before time
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: began gives me the goods to win. I see an
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: open door.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: If he thought enough of me to give me the opportunity,
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: the least I could do is to work that thing.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: Others may run from what I run to. aligning my
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: purpose to his will. I attack like a warrior, scale
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: walls like a soldier, marching in line, never diverting the path.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: I've done the math. God is greater.

• 13:14
  Speaker 1: Tell somebody to say, work that thing. Somebody just got
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: a word from the Lord they're going to work that thing.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: they're going to work that thing. They're going to work
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: that thing. I'm going to work it. If I'm a
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: big woman, I'm going to work being a big woman.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: If I'm a little skinny man, I'm going to work
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: that thing. If I'm creative, I'm going to work that thing.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: If I'm intellectual, I'm going to work that thing. If
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: I have great personality, I'm going to work that thing.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: If I got suave, I'm going to work that thing.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: If I got swag, I'm going to work that thing.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: Whatever I've been gifted with, it ain't over till you're
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: I think this might be the perspective you need to
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: take to take full advantage of the gift you have
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: been given. Stop sitting on that thing and work. Work
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: that thing. Work that thing. Work it on your level.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Work that thing. Need a job? Can't find one? Start one.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: Work that thing. Work that thing. Work that thing. Work
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: that thing. God, I feel like I'm talking to somebody.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: I can't hardly get off the point. I can't hardly
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: get off the point. Work it. See, people don't understand
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: that you have to work what you have been given.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: They keep waiting for a finished product to come. Finished
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: products don't come to you. God doesn't give you oak trees.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: He gives you acorns. If you don't perceive that the
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: oak tree is in the acorn, you will throw away
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: the acorn and keep praying for the oak tree. And
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: God already answered you. The tree is in the acorn,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: but you got to work that thing. But because you
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: don't perceive it as valuable, because it doesn't look recognizable,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: because it doesn't come to you in the form you
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: had imagined it, maybe you hid what you should have worked.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: You're not working that thing. Sit down. I'm going to
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: work this text a little bit more. I'm going to
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: work that text. I'm going to work that text. I'm
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: going to work that text. I'm going to work that text.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: I'm going to work that text. I'm inviting you into
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: the annals of my thinking to walk around the chambers
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: of my mindset when I read this text in the
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: hope that I may drop something for you that you
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: might glean as precious and take it home with you.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: Walk with me through the corridors of this text while
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: we discuss the demographics of an opportunity between a master
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: and his slave. And he divided unto them according to
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: his ability. So the master has put more thought into
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: it than the slave. The slave is entering into something
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: that the master has pre-thought. The master was thinking about
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: giving the gift when the slave never knew it. So
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: the master was watching your abilities. Before he gave you
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: the opportunity. Warning, warning, warning. The master's always watching. And
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: if you prove your ability in something that you think
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: is minute through which you don't understand that that minute
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: thing you have been given is a catalyst through which
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: his next decision will be made. Let me stop playing
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: with this text and go on. So he said, he
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: gave one five and he gave one two and he
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: gave one one. And then he took his journey into
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: a far country. And the one who had five looked
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: at it And listen at his mentality says, how can
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: I make this more than it is? How can I
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: make this more than it is? Listen at how he thinks.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: So the one who had five looked at it. He
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: didn't get distracted by the fact. Look at how much
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: more he gave me than you. Because he's not racing
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: against you. He's racing against the creativity that exists inside
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: of himself. People who race against other people always stumble.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: Because you can't run forward looking sideways. What you want
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: to do is run against the training that you put in,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: the strength you've got, the dexterity you've got. You know
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: your machine. You know what your body will do. And
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: you're running against your ability, not his. You can't run
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: ahead looking sideways trying to prove to your sister that
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: your husband can make more money than hers, trying to
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: prove to your mama that you made it in spite
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: of what she said. You're going to trip in a minute.
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: Amen.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: Five, two, one. How can I make this more? And
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: to the one who had two, he looked at his
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: two and he said, I believe I could turn this
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: into four. How can I make this more? I believe
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: I could turn this into four. The one who had
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: one Said, I've been gifted too. I don't want no trouble.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Eyes don't want no trouble, boss. If the mouse will
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: come back tonight, eyes don't want no trouble. If you
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: don't want no trouble, you don't want no increase. Five
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: guy is thinking, how can I make this more? two
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: guys saying, how can I make this four? The one
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: guy is so preoccupied with survival that he misses success
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: because he has a survivalist mentality and he thinks that
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: success is surviving And not succeeding. And that's why his
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: life hasn't gotten any further than it's gone. Because he
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: has misdefined success. Because he sees success. Watch this. Through
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: the sunglasses of fear. And as long as you see
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: success through fear. You won't touch it. Because I don't
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: want no trouble boss. So supposing something go wrong. backers.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: I don't want no trouble. I'm not going to get
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: married because I don't want no trouble. I'm not going
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: to take the position because I don't want no trouble.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to go to school because it might
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: be hard at my age. I don't want no trouble.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: You never have increase when you are controlled by fear.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: All three men had the same opportunity. Two men did
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: something with it. One man didn't. The man who didn't
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: do it, didn't do it because his fears affected his perception.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: And he allowed the information that had been given to
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: all of them to be processed differently. And he said,
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: look at this. When the master comes back, the one
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: with five, Gives a good report. He's got 10. The
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: one with two, he's got four. The one with one,
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: the master said, what you got? He said, I don't
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: have but one. He said, I knew you were a
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: hard master, reaping where you had not sowed, demanding expectations
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: for your increase. So I hid what I had. Did
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: the one with one know something that the one with
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: two and the one with five didn't know? Absolutely not.
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: They all knew the same thing about the master, which
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: means that while the master was watching the slave, the
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: slave was watching the master. So they are all exposed
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: to the same information but look at how differently they
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: process it. Both of them knew that the master was
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: a hard master. He was a businessman. He was a
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: high roller. He was a big baller. He was a
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: shot caller. He was used to landing on his feet
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: and taking it from the top. Everybody knew that. But
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: it is how you process the information that determines what
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: you do with it. Two of them knew that about
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: him and said, I better have increase when he comes back.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: And the third one knew that about it and said,
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: I better hold on to what I got when he
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: comes back. How are you processing your situation and how
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: is it affecting its outcome? How are you processing your
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: situation and how is it affecting its outcome? Somebody else
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: could be exposed to the same opportunity, be exposed to
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: the same information and perceive it differently and land on
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: their feet.
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: Amen.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: We've got to stop right there, but my announcer is
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: going to tell you more of how you can get
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: down into the depths of the instinct to increase and
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: other great words that you need to further your destiny.
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: Masses of people jumping in cars, filling up tanks full
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: of gas, trying to get away from what they perceive
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: as an opposition. You will see a few people running
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: toward what everybody else is running away from because what
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: is other people's opposition is an opportunity.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: I see an open door. Opportunity lies before me. I've
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: changed my view. The gifts he laid within before time
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: began gives me the goods to win. I see an
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: open door.
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: If he thought enough of me to give me the opportunity,
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: the least I can do is to work that thing.
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: Others may run from what I run to. aligning my
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: purpose to his will. I attack like a warrior, scale
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: walls like a soldier, marching in line, never diverting the path.
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: I've done the math.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: God is greater. Because you handled the opportunity correctly, you
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: were able to move into the next dimension.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: I have the ability, right, permission to enter in. So
• 25:16
