  Speaker 1: Coming up on The Potter's Touch.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: Did you know your blessing is already ready? That it's
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: already in place, that God isn't fixing.
• 0:10
  Speaker 3: It up right now. It's already done.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: That the work doesn't have to be applied to where
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: you're going. The work has to be applied to you
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: so that when you get where you're going, You can
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: handle what you gotta handle. And so God helped me
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: preach the steps, the steps, the steps. Touch three people
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: and say the steps, the steps, the steps.
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: This is the part of touch.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ, our King. I
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: am so blessed to have the opportunity to share the
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: word of the Lord with you. The message that I'm
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: going to share with you today, I believe will strengthen you,
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: fortify you, bless you, even help your friends.
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: You ought to call, text, tell everybody. He's on. Get
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: ready for this word. The message is stay on track.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: Say neighbor.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: Neighbor.
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: God said. God said. Stay on track. Stay on track.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Don't deviate. Don't procrastinate. Don't become frustrated. All you have
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: to do to win this battle is stay on track.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: There are moments that try the human soul so violently
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: and so perplexing that if the truth were told, all
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: of us have had moments that we wanted to throw
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: up our hands.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: And walk away.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: Discouragement can creep in secretly, hide behind clothes, makeup, hairdos.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Discouragement is so bold that it will even hide behind
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: a smile. It will always ride to work with you.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: And if it doesn't catch a ride going to work,
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: it'll catch a ride.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: On the way back home.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: Discouragement will go into a tent, into a garage apartment.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: It'll go into subsidized living. It will walk right into
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: a Section 8 neighborhood. It will come in, but don't
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: think that it stops there. Discouragement will walk right into
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: a middle-class house.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: And sit down at the dining.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Room table and have a cup of coffee early in
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: the morning.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: It won't just stop there. It'll go in a mansion.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: And sit on the side of a jacuzzi, stick his
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: feet in the hot tub and tell you life is
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: not worth living. If you listen at discouragement, it will
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: cause you to make bad decisions. It will cause you
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: to think that life is not worth living and secretly
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: behind the facade of a smile and a good morning
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: and a praise the Lord and a how are you
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: you will wonder if you're ever going to get out
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: of what you're into. Particularly painful is discouragement in the
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: life of the believer. Because as we travel from season
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: to season, it is not just the perils that we face,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: but it is seeing.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: The wicked go forward while the righteous are held back.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you've ever thought like that, but
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: sometimes I see people succeeding who didn't pray nearly as hard,
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: worked nearly as long, have not been faithful at all,
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: and it seems like they seemingly have moments of victory
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: placed in close proximity so I could see it. Their
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: victories are flaunted in my face, not while I am
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: having a similar experience, but while all hell has broken
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: loose in my life and I am going through agony
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: and tragedy, seemingly they are having victory and triumph. And
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: if you are not careful, the very sight of their
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: prosperity becomes your agony. And seeing them go forward will
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: be a source of such continued frustration that it is
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: not your test that baffles you, but their success agonizingly
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: displayed before you makes you despair of life until David
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: says in 37 and.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: One, fret not thyself.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Over evildoers, how they prosper in their own way they
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: shall soon.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: Be cut off.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: He says, in other words, don't make a permanent decision
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: over a temporary circumstance. He says, don't allow a moment
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: of agony to make you draw a conclusion about life prematurely.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: Because if you just keep on walking God has a
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: way of making everything all.
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: But he warns us and declares to us that the
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: steps of a good man are ordered.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: By the Lord. Steps.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: Somebody say steps. Now, the term steps is Implies process.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Means it's gonna take a while. Means that you can't
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: get to the destination just because you want it. Just
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: because you saw it. Just because you like it. Just
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: because you need it. In fact, we are often tormented
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: by visions.
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: Mm-hmm, yeah.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: We are tormented by vision. It's a painful thing to
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: be a visionary because a visionary sees what shall be
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: and wakes up to deal with what is. Sometimes a
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: visionary cries out on the inside and says, God, don't
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: even show me what shall be Because every time I
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: shout and dance over what you showed me, I go
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: home to a harsh.
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: And painful, bleak, dark reality.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: And the fact that I am torn between what shall
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: be and what is creates agony.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: In my life.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: The Bible said hope deferred makes the heart sick. There
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: are moments that I'd rather not know that I'm going
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: to be king if you're going to send me back
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: out into the field to take care of sheep. Why
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: didn't you just hide that I was gonna be king
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: so I could be satisfied taking care of sheep? But
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: because you told me you had more for me, I
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: wanted to hasten the process to get to my destiny. Oh,
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: now I'm not happy doing what I used to be
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: happy doing because I'm tormented by what shall be. I
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: wanna hasten my process so that I can get to
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: an expected end.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: But that cannot be done.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: Because a blessing given too soon is not a blessing
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: at all. I can give my son the car keys
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: now and tell him to go to the store. But
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: had I given it to him when he was five,
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: it would not have been a blessing at all. Same car,
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: same son, given too soon. He can't handle it. The
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: car can handle it. The road can handle it. I
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: can give it to him, but he can't handle it.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: So would I be a good father if I gave
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: him a good thing too soon? Sometimes my goodness is
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: proven by my ability to say not yet. The younger
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: brother of the prodigal son teaches us emphatically that if
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: we get what is ours too soon, we cannot handle it,
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: that the same thing that should make us praise the
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: Father will drive us away from the Father if we
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: get it too soon. The Bible said, he said, give
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: me the portion of goods that falleth to me. The
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: Father gave in and gave it to him and the blessing.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: Drove him over the edge.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: My prayer has always been Lord don't give me more
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: than I can handle. You know when to bless me.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: You know how to bless me. You know when I'm
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: ready to be blessed. Teach me patience with the process.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: Go through the process. God has ordered steps. The thing
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: that I'm thankful for is to know that God orders
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: the steps. It helps me to understand that I am
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: not wandering aimlessly. That I'm not just moving on my own.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: That there is a course for me to take. And
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: that I can't graduate till I take it. That there
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: is a path for me to trod. That God isn't
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: making this thing up as he goes. I thought he
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: was making it up as he went. That's why I prayed.
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: So he could make it up my way. I prayed
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: to abort the process. I prayed to speed it up.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: I prayed to get out of things that he wanted
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: me to stay into. I prayed that I wouldn't have
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: to endure some things that he wanted me to endure.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: I was working on the destination, but he was working
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: on me. And sometimes he made me wait. He made
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: me slow down and said, no, you skipped that step.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: Go back. Go back and do that again. If you
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: skipped it with Jimmy, I'm going to send it back
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: with Freddie. If you skipped it with Willie, you're going
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: to have to go through it with Roger. skipped it
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: with Sally, you're gonna go through it with Susie because
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: all of these are tools that I'm using to work
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: on you. I'm not preparing the blessing for you, I'm
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: preparing you for the blessing. The blessing is already prepared,
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: oh my God. The blessing is already prepared. Eyes have
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: not seen, ears have not heard, neither have entered into
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: the heart of man the things that God have prepared
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: for them that love him. Did you know your blessing
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: is already ready? That it's already in place at God?
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: In fixing it up right now. It's already done.
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: That the work doesn't have to be applied to where
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: you're going. The work has to be applied to you
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: so that when you get where you're going, you can
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: handle what you got to handle. And so God helped
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: me preach the steps, the steps, the steps. Touch three
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: people and say the steps, the steps, the steps. You
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: wanted a good husband, but you wasn't a good wife.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: You wanted children, but you wasn't a good parent. You
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: wanted a good wife, but you wasn't a good man.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: And anytime you get anything too soon, you will trip
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: on the steps. So God puts us in process and
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: order steps.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: Still to come on The Potter's Touch.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: I press toward the mark of the prize of.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: The high calling. Slap your neighbor.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: And tell him I press.
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: I press.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: I press over depression. I press over rejection. I press
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: over fear. I press over loneliness. Devil, you thought you
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: had me, but every time you tried, I pressed.
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: Before I die in a cage, I want to run
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: in the wild.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: We can do what it is without limits, without being
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: boxed in a cage, without being hindered. I want to
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: run in the wild of my destiny. I want to
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: run in the wild of my purpose.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: Telling us to branch out and it's time to shift
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: and just about taking it to the next level and
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: to just thinking outside of the four walls.
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: I got to get out of this cage. God has
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: given us a place.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: Around where we are pastoring, to take over that region
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: for the kingdom of God. You're frustrated about something that's
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: just an incubator to take you to the next dimension.
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: Now we're going to grow and go to global missions.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: No more limits, no more boundaries. The cage is open.
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: You don't have any excuses anymore on why you can't
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: fulfill your purpose and complete your assignment. To register for
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: this international gathering, visit pastorsandleaders.org or call 1-800-BISHOP-2.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: But good men are ordered by the Lord. Even Jesus
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: had steps. They tried to crown him too soon and
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: he disappeared because they were trying to make him skip
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: the steps.
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: He said, no, no, you.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: Can't crown me before you cross me. It is my cross.
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: that makes my crown. It is my agony that makes
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: my ecstasy. It is my sickness that makes my healing.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: It is my poverty that illuminates my prosperity. Makes me
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: appreciate where I am.
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: Oh God, help me.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: Makes me appreciate where I am right now. You don't
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: know this good health till you've been sick. You don't
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: even notice it. You don't even understand the words that
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: are coming out of my mouth until you have been sick.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: You will never thank God for feeling good until you
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: felt bad. You'll never thank God for your back, for
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: your neck, for your head, for your kidneys, for your
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: liver until it's been challenged. But after a while, you
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: start thanking God for crazy stuff. Thank you, because I
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: can see this.
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: Morning Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the truth of the matter is, it's a whole
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: lot of folk in here that are thankful for stuff
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: that they can't testify about because people wouldn't understand your testimony.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, dumb stuff like, Lord, I thank you I
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: can afford to get my hair done. Oh, y'all don't understand.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: Let me talk to these people over here. Lord, I
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: thank you. I got the book money to send the
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: kids to school. I know that ain't a big testimony,
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: but when you've been to hell and back, you can
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: thank God for little stuff. The steps of a good man.
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: Are ordered by the Lord and I don't have to
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: be on the stage to be grateful.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: I can praise him on the step because every time
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: I make a step, touch your neighbor and say, praise
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: him on the steps.
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: Don't wait till.
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: You get to the stage. Don't wait till you get finished.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: Don't wait till everything is in order. But every now
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: and then, you ought to stop right in the middle
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: of the step and say, Lord, I thank you.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: I'm not where.
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: I'm going to be, but I'm glad I'm not where I.
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: Used to be. Lord, I thank you. Is there anybody
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: in here.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: That's praising God on the steps?
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: Look at your neighbor and say, I'm not there yet.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: I'm not finished yet. I haven't arrived yet. But when
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: you see me praising God, I'm praising him on the steps.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: Somebody praise him on the steps. The devil hates step praise.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: I said, the devil hates step praise. Satan hates step praise.
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: Praise that stops in the middle of the step and says,
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: I count not myself.
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: To have apprehended, but this one thing.
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: I do, forgetting that which is behind me and reaching
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: to that which is before me, I press forward.
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: I press. I press.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: I wish I had some determined folk in here. I
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: press to award the mark of the prize of the
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: high calling.
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: Slap your neighbor and tell him I press. I press.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: I press over depression. I press over rejection. I press
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: over fear. I press over loneliness. Devil, you thought you
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: had me, but every time you tried, I pressed. Look
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: at your neighbor and say, no, I'm not perfect. I
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: am not perfect. But one thing I do, I press.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: Every morning I get out of the bed. Every day I.
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: Get in my car. I don't care what they say.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: I don't care what they do.
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: I press.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: You better not go to sleep on the steps. You
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: better not start crying on the steps. You better not
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: give up on the steps. You better not collapse on
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: the steps. They will find you on the steps. If
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: you lay down, they'll run over top of you on
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: the steps. I don't care whether it's sunshine.
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: Or rain, pleasure or pain.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: When you get up in the morning, put your pants
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: on and press.
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: Slap your neighbor and holler, press!
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: I measure the value of a man by how hard
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: he presses. That's how you can determine who you're fighting.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: By how hard they press. How hard you press tells
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: me how hard you hit.
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: Uh-huh.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: You can be all big and muscle-bound and still not
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: have no force behind your punch.
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: Uh-huh. Force.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: Kinetic energy. Energy in motion. You can't have energy sitting.
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: Energy is measured by motion. That's why the devil wants
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: you to sit. Sit down and shut up. And feel
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: sorry for yourself. But you ought to blow the devil's
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: mind this morning.
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: You ought to blow the.
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: Devil's mind this morning. Just when he think he got
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: you down. You ought to shock him and press him.

  Speaker 2: wouldn't let you bypass the process. All those people who
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: offered you quick deals, the reason the deal went down
