God Is Giving You the Grace to Make the Changes You’ve Been Afraid to Make Bishop T.D. Jakes · Pst T.D Jakes -The POTTER'S HOUSE

  Speaker 1: We can go at it. So last week we talked
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: about the book of Genesis. We talked about looking at
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: the ages and stages of ages from a dispensational perspective
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: is one of the many ways in which we can
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: relegate and thereby determine and understand different eras and ages
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: out of time. We understood then that Noah was standing
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: at the end of the age of consciousness about to
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: float into human government and that in spite of all
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: of that, He stepped out of his error and found.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: Grace.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: It was not that grace found him but he found
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: grace in the eyes of the Lord and consequently a
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: revolution evolved in his life because he transcended his error
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: and the dispensation of his time and moved into that
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: which was hidden but revealed unto him and he found
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: it because it was hidden. You don't find something that's
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: not hidden. He found it because it was hidden. Grace
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: was hidden and Noah found grace in the eyes of
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: the Lord and consequently was able to operate on a
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: level that transcended his time and situation.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Imagine that.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: That we can find things about God that cause us
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: to transcend where we are and operate as if we
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: were translated into something that has been held back. Imagine
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: that the secret of the Lord is with them that
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: fear him and that God would show you things that
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: haven't even happened yet so that you could be ready
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: for them before they happen. Imagine that you could touch
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: into a vein in the spirit that released something that
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: your circumstances were destitute of and yet you were able
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: to channel them into this present world.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Because of your closeness to God.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Imagine that while other people were drowning, you were floating.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Imagine while other people were dying, you were living. Imagine
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: while other people were going under, you were going up.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Imagine while other people were being laid off, you were
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: hiring people. Imagine while other people were committing suicide, you
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: were smiling and having abundant life. imagine that you had
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: disrupted the culture the order the societal trends of the
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: times in such a profound and didactic way that you
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: turned out to be on the right side of history
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: and not the wrong side of history that God had
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: allowed you to fight somebody shout grace oh my God
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: when you say it hell gets nervous and demons tremble
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: and Satan becomes upset somebody say grace When you say it,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: your mind gets better, your anxiety dissipates, your worry leaves,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: your guilt, your shame, your anxiety. Somebody shout grace. That
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: I don't deserve, I didn't earn, I didn't work for it,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: but I just became eligible by the mercy of God.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Somebody shout grace. Grace is not just mercy and forgiveness,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: but grace is power. Grace is the ability. Grace is
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: the unction to function in things that would have killed
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: somebody else. But you got the grace for it. And
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: when you got the grace for it, you can put
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: up with it. That's why you can't always take the
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: advice of your sister girl, your girlfriends, or your comrades.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Because sometimes their advice is based on gracelessness. And yet
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: you have the grace to put up with something. That
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: they couldn't stand and they're telling you if I was you,
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: I would shut up, you're not me. I have the
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: grace to be me. I have the grace to raise
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: this child. I have the grace to be married to
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: this man. I have the grace to do this job.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: I have the grace to run for this office. I
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: have the grace to move into this position. I have
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: found grace. Power, electric, intensity, force, might, electricity.
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: I got it.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: I got grace.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: I don't care how old I am. I don't care
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: what I look like. I don't care whether you like
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: me or not.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: If I got the grace, I got the grace and
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: nothing you can do about it.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Oh.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Oh, I feel it. I feel it.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: I feel it because I'm walking in it and I'm
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: standing in it and I'm breathing in it and I'm
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: living in it. I'm standing in the grace of God.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: I'm 65 years standing in the grace of God. Still
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: got unction. Still got fire. Still got glory. That's grace.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: You can go ahead and get old if you want to.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Quit if you want to. Sit down if you want to.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Accept defeat if you want to. The devil is a lie.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: I'm not through yet. It's not over until God says
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: it over. It's not a calendar. It's not a date
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: on the calendar. I refuse to act old because I'm
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: supposed to.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: I got grace. Noah found grace in the eyes of
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: the Lord.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: And God saved him because Noah walked with God.
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: Because God saw himself in Noah. Because Noah was a
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: righteous man. He wasn't trying to keep up with the culture.
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: The culture was drowning Noah. And Noah was floating because
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: he did not idolize his associates. Your problem is you
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: care too much about people and what they think and
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: what they say and whether they like you or not
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: or whether they like the way you look or they
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: like your hair, they like your dress.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: I don't care whether you like it or not.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: I refuse to bow down at the shrine of what
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: is only a man's opinion and.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: Back up.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Give me some room. Give me some space. Because I
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: got grace to do this. And God saved Noah.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: And his sons and their daughters.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Saved by association. Saved by relationship. So if you're not relational,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: you're in trouble. Because no sons and daughters got saved
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: by relationship. They didn't have covenant, their father did. And
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: they became a recipient for that that they did not
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: have because they were connected with somebody that did. Connections
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: is what got the woman with the issue of blood healed.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: It wasn't attention, it was connections. She touched the hem
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: of his garment. He wasn't even looking at her, but
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: just because she was.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: Connected, she got blessed.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Are you connected with people that have the ability to
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: change your destiny because you honor your connection? Then don't
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: let no devil tear up your connection. Once God has
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: given you a connection, it will save your life. one
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: of my fondest memories of my youngest son's childhood is
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: watching him in the mirror watching me shave when I
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: was shaving and he was a little boy he was
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: a wee little boy and I'm shaving in the mirror
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: and he's looking in the mirror at me you remember
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: this And, oh, I can't look at you and tell it.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: I'll tell it back to you. And he said, he
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: looked in the mirror and I'm looking at him through
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: the mirror and he said, daddy.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: You're everything I want to be.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: And I thought, listen, wait, I thought, and that's why
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: I can't look at him. Uh, I said to myself,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: I said, that's nice, but you don't know everything I am.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: You haven't seen me scared. You haven't seen me tired.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: You haven't seen me fail. You haven't seen me be human.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: You see me as a superhero and you love my superhero.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: And I smiled and I patted him and I thought
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: to myself, it'll mean more if when you grow up
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: And you still think that. And I can't look at
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: him when I tell you that as a grown man,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: I brought it up. And I brought it up with
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: some anxiety because I braced myself for him to say
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: that he changed his mind. And he said, Daddy, you're
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: still everything I ever wanted to be.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: I ain't gonna be able to do it with him
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: in the room.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: What I brought it up about, this.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Personal conversation between me and my youngest child, this personal
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: conversation was had through a mirror. I can look at
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: you now we never looked at each other yeah we
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: just looked through the mirror so I'm standing there looking
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: at his reflection And he is looking at mine. And
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: we are talking to the reflections about each other. Are
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: you watching what I'm saying? In this little personal private
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: story is some mystery of theology. It will chase away
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: you see a mirror. Every time you see a mirror
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: you will see it differently. How many people got a
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: mirror on them right now? You got a mirror in
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: your pocketbook somewhere on your seat somewhere. You got a
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: mirror right now. Your mirror will teach you the purpose
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: of God. You don't need your Bible. I want to
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: preach from your mirror. For you see when God made
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: man from the dust of the earth.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: He made him a mirror. A reflection.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: What God liked about man was he was created in
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: his likeness and in his image. So when God looked
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: at man, he saw himself. And what God has always
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: wanted for humanity is reflection.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: That's why when.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: Jesus came, he told us to pray after this manner.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: He said, I want you to be a reflection of heaven. Behold,
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: I give you power. Whatever you bind on earth have
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: been bound in heaven. Whatever you loose on earth have
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: been loosened. That's mere talk. that's mirror talk that's mirror
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: talk that's mirror talk that's mirror talk that's mirror talk
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: when Moses said God show me your glory and he
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: looked at the glory of God until the molecules of
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: his face began to change into what he beheld because
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: you always become what you look up to and when
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: Moses when Moses began to look up at God he
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: became the God he was looking at So much so
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: that the Bible says in Hebrew, his face shone. In
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: the Hebrew, it means glory beams were shooting out of
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: his face when he came down off the mountain. It
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: looked like beams were shooting out his face because his
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: face had molecularly changed into what he was looking at.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: Whatever you look at is what you become. You cannot
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: be it if you don't see it. And the more
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: you see it, you can be it. And Moses was
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: staring at God and turning into God without death. Transforming
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: into divinity without death before the cross required a veil.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Because it wasn't time for it to be revealed what
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: God looked like. And so when Moses comes down off
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: of the mountain, he veils his face so that the
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: glory of God does not yet appear because it wasn't
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: supposed to appear through Moses. The law was supposed to
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: appear through Moses, but not the glory. The glory was
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: supposed to come through Jesus. And the Bible said we
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: beheld the wonder of his glory. The only begotten of
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: the father full of grace and truth. That means that
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: Jesus is to God what I was to Dexter. They're
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: having a reflective conversation. Jesus is God talking to us
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: through his mirror. No man have seen the father at
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: any time save the son who have revealed him. If
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: you have seen me, come on. You have seen the
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: father because I'm in the father and the father is
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: in me. This is a reflective analysis because God has
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: always wanted to see himself in his likeness and in
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: his image. And the reason Satan hated man is because
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: he looked like his daddy.
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: Amen.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: And if you're in rebellion against the father, you're going
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: to be in rebellion against the son. So when Satan
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: slithers up on Eve in the garden, he's trying to
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: break the mirror. He couldn't break the father. So he
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: tries to break the mirror. The reflection of his clothes.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: The express image of his person.
• 15:27
  Speaker 6: Divinity wrapped up in humanity. And we beheld the wonder
• 15:33
  Speaker 6: of his glory. The only begotten of the father full
• 15:36
  Speaker 6: of grace and truth. I was looking at Dexter. I
• 15:39
  Speaker 6: was looking at what I was. He was looking at
• 15:42
  Speaker 6: me as an older man at what he would become.
• 15:49
  Speaker 6: He represented my past. I represented his future. And we
• 15:53
  Speaker 6: were staring through time. And when I looked at him,
• 15:56
  Speaker 6: I looked at where I was. And when he looked
• 15:58
  Speaker 6: at me, he looked at what he would become. So
• 16:03
  Speaker 6: when you see the sun, you are seeing God expressing
• 16:06
  Speaker 6: himself through the sun in his likeness and in his image.
• 16:12
  Speaker 6: What does that have to do with the text? I'm
• 16:15
  Speaker 6: glad you asked. It has everything to do with the
• 16:19
  Speaker 6: flood because this mutated being that had started to be
• 16:25
  Speaker 6: created out of the lust of the sons of God
• 16:30
  Speaker 6: and the daughters of men had created a mutated being
• 16:33
  Speaker 6: that had destroyed the reflection of who God was. And
• 16:39
  Speaker 6: he said, before I'll have my image disrupted, I'll drown them.
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: Because they are not reflecting me. And I created them
• 16:55
  Speaker 6: to be in my image and in my likeness. And
• 16:59
  Speaker 6: I am seeing a mutation.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: How much of God does he.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: See in you? In the way you talk. In the
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: way you walk. In the way you handle people. And
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: the way you respond to people. And the way you
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: interact with people. How much of it is a reflection
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: of your father. Or are you just showing yourself. Because
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: this determines whether the flood hits you. The purpose of
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: God is not the titles of men. We have confused
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: purpose with titles. So when we ask people about purpose,
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: they tell you what they do.
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: I'm a preacher. That's a title.
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: Don't confuse titles with purpose. I am the express image
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: of his person. I am the personification of his praise.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: I am the ohel mohed, the tent of meeting where
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: divinity meets humanity. I am an expression of God's ability
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: to inhabit that which is human. I am the wind
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: of God in flesh, the breath of God, the zoe God.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: My purpose is to reflect him in the earth. So
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: I try to tell you what he would tell you,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: speak to you like he would speak to you, handle
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: you like he would handle you, whether.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: I like you or not.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: That's beside the point. I am supposed to express him
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: in the earth. And as long as I express him,
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: no weapon formed against me shall be able to prosper.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: And every tongue that rises against me, God will condemn.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: And I don't care how high the flood gets. It'll
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: never get me if I express his glory. Amen. That's
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: why you clap your hands. That's why you give him praise.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: That's why you lift him up so that you can
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: express glory. The Lord told me to tell you that
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: he created you to be a glory machine. A glory machine.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: Like you squeeze toothpaste and toothpaste comes out. When I
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: squeeze you, glory ought to come out. Glory ought to
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: come out of your praise, out of your talk, out
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: of your walk. Somebody let glory loose. Because if you
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: secrete glory, God will protect you. God is not worried
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: about your humanity. He's worried about his glory. As long
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: as you express his glory, the floods won't drown you.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: I got to praise him. I got to praise him.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: Sometimes that's the only thing I get right.
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: Is faith in him.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: And I throw myself on the mercy of the court
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: because God inhabits praise. And if I want God to
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: inhabit me, I've got to praise him because there's nothing
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: else about me that God would want. But if I
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: praise him, he will come in. He will come in
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: and sit with me and make his abode with me.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: If I praise him, somebody just tried right now and
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: praise him right now. It'll work in your car. Give
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: me more. It'll work in your living room. It'll work
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: on your couch. You don't even have to be in
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: this building. Whenever praises go up, blessings will come down.
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: You're a glory machine. If you're watching me online, you're
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: a glory machine. Produce it in the hospital. Produce it
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: in the courtroom. Produce it in the bank. Wherever you
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: need glory to show up. It's not going to come down.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: It's going to come out. Out of your belly shall
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: flow rivers of living water. And glory beams were coming
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: out of his face. And God said, I'm seeing something
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: on earth that doesn't look like me. And I will
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: destroy it because that that I'm seeing coming out of
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: your house.
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: That ain't me.
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: That mutated thing that you birthed for your pleasure? That
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: big giant thing that's walking around in your life that's
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: a hybrid of your spirituality and your carnality? Your sons
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: of God have seen the daughters of men and produced.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: A strange thing, a mutation. that does not reflect.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: My glory. And Dexter and I were talking through the reflection.
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: We never turned our heads to look at each other
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: because I could see him.
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: Through his reflection.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: I could see my yesterday in the reflection and he
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: could see his tomorrow If you wonder what he would
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: look like with gray beard, here it is. Time could
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: not deter reflection. So when God wanted reflection, he created man.
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: In the era of Noah, this that God did not
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: create is now growing. And God said, that's not mine.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: So I'm going to drown everything that does not reflect.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: My glory.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: That's why you got to be cool when God drowns
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: certain people out.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: Of your life.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: It must have been hard to be on the ark
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: and hear those people screaming outside. And yet you could
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: not save them and you could not help them because
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: it was their decision. And I am learning I had
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: a certain arrogance I didn't know I had that I
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: thought being anointed meant that I could reach anybody. I
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: am learning that you cannot help certain people. I don't
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: care how anointed you are. I don't care how gifted
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: you are. You cannot help people who have decided.
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: To go with the giants. Type on the line, get
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: rid of the giants.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: Yes. All those things that grew up in your life
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: that God didn't send in your life, get rid of
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: them things because that is what is going to bring
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: the flood. I wish I had time. I think it's
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: interesting that in Noah's day, they created giants. In our day,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: we created technology. I think it is interesting that we
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: cannot talk to each other for technology. And we are
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: more intimate with machinery than we are humanity. I think
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: it's interesting that we can all sit down at a
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: dinner table and be preoccupied with our phones. And have
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: we made something that mocks who we are and does
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: not give us the satiety of real relationships? Because you
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: really think they're friends because they follow you?
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: Are you kidding me?
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: You really think that they like you because they like
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: your picture?
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: Are you serious?
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: Have you become that cheap? That you'll do anything for
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: a touch you didn't even.
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: Get to feel?
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: They touched their phone and you felt better. Have you
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: become so cheap that you walk past the people who
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: can touch you to have contact with the people that
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: can't touch you? Have we not created giants that are
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: replacing us, that are taking our jobs and taking our
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: positions and taking our places? Can you call anybody now
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: and not talk to a machine? I can't get a
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: real person on the phone that can answer a question.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: If you want this, punch five. If you want that,
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: punch seven. If you want this, punch three. Hit the
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: pound button when you're complete. If you don't want to
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: hit the star, I want a person. I want to
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: talk to a person who thinks and breathes. and can
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: respond and answer my question. I don't want to talk
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: to a robot. I don't want to kiss a robot.
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: I don't want to hold a robot. I don't want
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: to make.
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: Love to a robot.
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: I don't want you to create something that looks sexy
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: that I cannot feel.
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: I am tired of machines.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Because no machine can reflect the glory of God. No
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: meme can create the glory of God. No hologram can
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: create the glory of God.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: Only you. Even the angels can't do it.
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: Only you can reflect the glory of God. And there
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: you sit with your lips first and you won't praise
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: the Lord with your stingy self. When it's the one
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: thing that makes you unique in all the earth, let
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: everything that have breath praise ye.
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: Somebody shout grace.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: I told you last week intellect does not produce nor
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: deny grace. You don't get grace because you're smart. Because
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: then God would not be just. Because somebody with lesser
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: IQs would not be eligible. So it is not dispensed
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: according to your intellectualism. It is not dispensed According to
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: your aesthetics. Because then ugly people would be out. Ugly
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: people can be just as anointed. It's fine folks.
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: Because God does not dispense glory. By appearance.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: For man looketh on thee. But God looketh on thee.
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: Oh you get me, you get me, you get me,
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: you get me. it I can produce glory and be
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: poor I know y'all don't believe that in America but
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: you can be anointed and be broke I was anointed
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: with food stamps.
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: Hallelujah. I would preach you into a coma.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: Feeding my daughter witch and pitting back.
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: Stuff that the food stamps wouldn't cover.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: But it didn't stop the glory from saturating my life.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: And I got up because I am anointed. And I
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: went further because I am anointed. But even poverty could
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: not stop anointing from getting to me. You can be
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: in prison and be anointed. The glory will get in
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: between the bars. The glory that need the warden's permission.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: The glory cannot be stopped by the sheriff's department. If
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: you're watching me in a prison cell, the glory of
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: God will walk right through the bars and touch you
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: like you've never been touched before. Human conscious finds grace
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: when it matures enough to discover its own wretchedness. Let
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: me break this down. You will never get better until
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: you find out how sick you are. As long as
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: you deny your own illness and you become professional at
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: blaming other people, for what's wrong with you you will
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: never be on the road to recovery when you begin
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: to own it when you become consciously aware that I
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: need the grace of God I need the power of
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: God I need the blood of Jesus I need the
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: anointing of God I am a wretch undone you wouldn't
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: like me if I didn't take my medication I need
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: a fix every day I need glory in the morning
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: I need glory in the evening I I need glory
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: to shut my mouth. I need glory to stop me
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: from telling you what I'm thinking. I need glory from
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: flipping out like I can flip out. I can flip out.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: I don't have to pop my neck. I will pop
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: your neck. I will go off on you. I need
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: glory to keep my flesh in check. I need glory
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: to hold my peace and not show you that I
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: could outcuss you in my sleep.
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: Somebody shout glory.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: Now Genesis tells us what Noah did. That Noah built
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: an ark. A certain amount of furlongs. A furlong is
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: from the elbow to the fingertip. So it was not
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: a specific length because the distance from elbow to fingertip
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: varies from hand to hand. What I build is measured
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: By my length.
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: I measure.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: By my own arm. That's why comparing yourselves. With one another.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: And so doing it is not wise. Because my sister's furlong.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: Might be shorter. Than my furlong. But that doesn't make
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: her any less successful. Because a furlong is determined. By
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: your own length.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: Your capacity.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: Your capacity. How much capacity do you have? Don't walk
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: in my capacity. My arm might be longer. Noah built
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: the ark. I'm going to move on. Noah built the
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: ark according to his length. The book of Genesis tells
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: us what he did. But the book of Hebrews tells
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: us why he did it. I don't want to pastor
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: a bunch of people who are stuck on what? Because
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: as long as you're stuck on what, you will never
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: love like God. Because men always want to know what
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: you did. Somebody can call you and tell you, so
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: and so died. What'd they die of, child? Is that
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: going to make them any less dead? But we want
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: to know what's. I ain't gonna bother with it. I'm
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: canceling out all the additions I could add to that.
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: Genesis tells us what. Hebrews tells us why. Hebrews 11
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: and 7 says, by faith. Noah, when warned about things
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: not yet seen. In King James it said, move with fear.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: In NIV it says, in holy fear, built an ark
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: to save his family. By faith, he condemned the world
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: and became the heir of righteousness that is in keeping
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: with faith. Good God Almighty. Can I spend a few
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: minutes here and I'm going to stop? The thing that
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: got me about this text is that I always hear
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: church people preaching top, bottom, north, south, east, west, faith, fear.
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: As if fear were the opposite of faith. And we
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: had all these t-shirts to make people with masks feel funny.
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: Faith over fear. Like if I had real faith, I
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: wouldn't have a mask on. I said, no, if you
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: had real faith, you wouldn't lock your car door. If
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: you want to show me your faith, leave your door
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: open and go to sleep. Leave your pocketbook on the
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: dashboard and leave the car unlocked. Let's really show them
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: some faith. If you're going to tempt God, let's really
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: just go off.
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: I got faith. I got faith. No, you got COVID.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: You must understand what I'm saying.
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: People don't get COVID or not get COVID because they
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: had faith or didn't have faith. You can have faith
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: and still catch COVID. You can have a mask and
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: still catch COVID. You can have no mask and still
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: catch COVID. Let's challenge. Now, I'm going to be disruptive, okay?
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: This is a warning.
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: So if you want to hop off live, hop off
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: right now because I'm getting ready to be disruptive. I'm
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: going to mess with your theology just a little bit.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: I'm going to mess with you just a little bit.
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: You run around talking about that if I had faith,
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't have fear. And then you quote the scripture,
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: a perfect love casts out fear. And then you tell
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: me that God has not given us the spirit of fear.
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: But the truth of the matter is, this scripture brings
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: faith and fear into the same sentence without contradiction. Noah's
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: faith is proven by his fear. So the text starts out, oh,
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: I feel like teaching this thing now. Come on, I
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: dare you to push me. I'll teach this thing. By faith,
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: by faith, Noah being warned of God of things not
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: yet seen. Now, he had faith. God wanted you as grace.
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: If God warned you, that's grace. If I told you
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: to stop, that's grace. If I gave you a chance
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: to get out, that's grace. If I gave you the
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: plan for the tabernacle, that's grace. If I gave you
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: the plan for the ark, that's grace. So we see
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: by faith, nor being warned of God, look at your
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: neighbor and say, God warned you. If you get in trouble,
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: don't blame God. If you go bankrupt, don't blame God.
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: If they take all your money and run, don't blame God.
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: If you lose your self-respect, don't blame God. If you
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: end up HIV positive, don't blame God. Once God warns you,
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: grace has done what it was supposed to do. It
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: has warned you of things not yet seen. It has
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: warned you of things not yet seen. Is there anybody
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: in here that don't want to be warned?
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: I want to be warned.
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: If you want to be warned, put your hand up.
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: I want to be warned.
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: I want to be warned when I'm going too far.
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: I want to be warned when I'm talking too much.
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: I want to be warned when I'm in the presence
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: of an enemy. I want to be warned.
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: When I be. a witch.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: I want to be warned when there's somebody out to
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: sabotage me. I want to be warned when I'm on
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: the brink of destruction. I want to be warned when
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: I talk too much. I want to be warned when
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: I need to hold my peace. I want to be
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: warned when I'm about to mess up my future. That's
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: the grace of God. Look at your neighbor and say,
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: he warned me. I would have been dead but he
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: warned me. I would have been destroyed but he warned me.
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: I would have drowned but he warned me. I would
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: have been with somebody that was abusive but he warned me.
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: I would have been with somebody that was hitting me
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: over the head with a frying.
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: Pan but he warned me.
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: Is there anybody in here that can shout because God
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: warned you? He warned me. He warned me. He warned me.
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: He warned me. The devil thought he had me, but
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: God warned me. The witch tried to hex me, but
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: God warned me. My enemies tried to deceive me. But
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: God warned me. They act like they were my friends.
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: But God warned me. They tried to put me in
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: a trap. But God warned me. To God be the glory.
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: He brought me out. He brought me out. He brought
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: me out. He brought me out. Because I believed him.
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: And you know how you know I believed him? Because
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: I moved with fear.
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: Come on, come on, come on.
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: Noah being warned of God of things not yet seen.
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: Move with.
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: Fear. It doesn't say he moved with faith. It said
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: he moved with fear. Because if you really believe God,
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: That it's going to rain. It ought to produce fear.
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: Because God is not looking for somebody.
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: In this season. Who will gradually. Build a boat.
• 41:49
  Speaker 6: And.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: We are too close to judgment for you to be
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: casual about building an escape route. The enemy is right
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: over your shoulder. If you don't move with fear, you
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: won't move quick enough to stop the enemy from doing
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: what he's trying to do. Because fear is a favor
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: from God. It releases your adrenaline. It gives you power
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: to move. It gives you agility. It gives you strength.
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: It causes your body to function in supernatural ways. God
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: gave you fear so that when the lion roared... You
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: would outrun him. When the baboon beat his chest, you
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: would outstep him. God gave you fear so that when
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: the snake rattled, you would move your foot. I need
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: me some fear to help me escape when the enemy
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: came in like a flood. The spirit of the Lord
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: will lift up a standard against him. Slap your neighbor
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: and say run. Run.
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: Run. Run, run, run.
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: I can see the signs of the judgment. You better run.
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: I can see the signs of the times. You better
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: run before we can cure one disease. Here comes another disease.
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: While we're getting over this disease, here comes another disease.
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: Flap your neighbor and say run. you better run you
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: better run you're not safe in Ukraine you're not safe
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: in Russia but you're not safe in Alabama you're not
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: safe in Jamaica you can't find anybody safe any place
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: that's safe you gotta be prepared to run hit your
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: neighbor and say I'm gonna run if you're going with
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: me you gotta run If you're going to move with me,
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: you got to run. I can't stand slow folks. They
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: make me itch. They get on my nerves. Because when
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: I got to go, I got to go. And you
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: got to move at my pace or you can't walk
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: with me. If you don't move with me, somebody open
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: your mouth and shout yes.
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: Fist bump three people and say, I got to make changes.
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: I got to make changes. I got to make changes.
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: I got to make changes. God's given me a grace.
• 45:02

• 47:01
  Speaker 1: them till you break your norm. Pray them till you

  Speaker 1: Somebody shout, I'm a disruptor. I'm a disruptor. I'm a disruptor.
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: I'm going to disrupt the whole house. I'm going to

  Speaker 1: disrupt the whole city. I'm going to disrupt the whole nation.
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: Somebody help me holler.
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: It was not.
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: What I was running to that.
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: Made me speed. It was what I was running.
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: If I hadn't seen the giants behind me, I wouldn't
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: have been in such a hurry.
• 48:27
  Speaker 2: Building my ark. But in order for me to protect.
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: My generations, I gotta build it. Hear me now. God
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: won't protect what you won't build. My text is the
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: grace to build. The grace to make changes. Which is
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: the grace to.
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: To build. Which means. Come on. Stay with me. Just
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: a minute. There is a grace. To be a disruptor.
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: In order to have the strength to disrupt a situation,
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: you have to have the ability to take the pain
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: of the critics who say you look like a fool.
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: You're building a boat. Why are you building a boat?
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: There's not a cloud in the sky. But because God
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: warned you of things that they can't even see.
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: Somebody shall build it.
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: There's something that God wants you to build that's going
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: to protect you from what's coming. And if you don't
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: build it, it won't happen. Grace won't do it without you.
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: You got to build it. If you build it, it's
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: going to happen. Somebody shout build it. You've been hanging
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: around people that are so busy having fun that you
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: haven't been around people who were busy building. Now building
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: feels like punishment because fun feels like normal. But if
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: you change your crowds and get with people that are building,
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: then you won't need rest from building because building will
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: become your normal. Look at your neighbor and say, I'm
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: a builder. That's what I do. If I get in
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: this marriage, I'm going to build it. If I have
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: a child, I'm going to build it. If I have
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: a job, I'm going to build it. If I start
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: a business, I'm going to build it because I got
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: the grace to make changes. Look at somebody and say,
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: make changes. This is your year. This is your time.
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: This is your season to make changes. And you're trying
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: to not make waves. But if you don't make waves,
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: you can't make change. If you don't get on somebody's nerves,
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: you can't make change. Look at somebody and say, I
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: got the grace for it.
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: I'm close. I'm close.
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: Because I feel a preaching fit coming on. I feel
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: a fit coming on me. There must be some builders
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: in the house.
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: If you're a.
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: Builder in the house, make some noise. I said, if
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: you're a builder in the house, make some noise. I said,
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: if you're building a house, make some noise. If you're
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: building a house, make some noise. Anything I get in,
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: I'm going to change it. I guarantee you, if I
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: join the choir, you're going to hear me. I guarantee you,
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: if I start pushing the wall, it's going to move.
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: I guarantee you, if I kick a door, it's going.
• 52:52
  Speaker 2: To fly open.
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: I will knock a door off its hinges at 65.
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: If I want in there, you can't.
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: Lock me out. If I get ready to come in...
• 53:06
  Speaker 2: Then baby, I'm coming in and no devil in hell.
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: Can keep me out because I got the grace to
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: make changes. Shout in this place. Holler in this place.
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: Make noise in this place. If you're going to make
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: some changes, I want to hear from you. Whatever tormented
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: you the most in your life, you have the most
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: grace to build in the area where you had the
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: most pain. I'm trying to tell you, your enemies are
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: your best friends. Because if it wasn't for them, you
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: wouldn't move with fear. And God sent pain in your
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: life to motivate you because you were too complacent. And
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: now he wants you out of your comfort zone. Because
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: he needs you.
• 54:39
  Speaker 2: To be scared.
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: Because he's looking for somebody that will move with fear.
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: He got too many people that's just walking along. He
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: wants somebody that's going to move with fear. I want
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: somebody in this building. I don't care whether you move north.
• 55:06
  Speaker 2: South, east, or west.
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: I don't care if you jump up and down or
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: climb up a step. But I want 3,000 people in
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: this place to just bust a move.
• 55:17
  Speaker 2: Any kind of move. I'm about to close.
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: That's my third time saying that. I'm about to close.
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you, when David got ready to bring
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: back the Ark of the Covenant, he was bringing back
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: the glory of God. But he didn't know how to
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: bring back the glory. Like some of you are standing
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: here watching us, but you don't know how to bring.
• 57:22
  Speaker 2: Back the glory. So the Bible.
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: Says that he tried to bring back the glory on
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: a new cart. But when he brought the glory, the
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: ox stumbled. The Ark of the Covenant slid. Uzzah cried
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: and he died. And for three months, David gave up
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: and put the glory in the house of Obed-Edom. But
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: when the glory got in Obed-Edom's house, the glory said,
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: I don't care what house I'm in. Anywhere I get in,
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: I'm going to produce glory. And the house of Obed-Edom.
• 58:05
  Speaker 2: God bless.
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: Somebody shout, give me the glory. Pastor Brady, David got
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: tired of seeing Obed-Edom's house get blessed.
• 58:34
  Speaker 2: And he said, I want the glory back.
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: Somebody say, I want the glory back. So he got
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: the Ark of the Covenant and he put it on
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: the shoulders of the priests. And in the King James Version,
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: it said that they brought their glory back with pases.
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: And when I said paces, I thought rhythm. But when
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: I looked up paces in Hebrew, it's not so much
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: about rhythm.
• 59:03
  Speaker 2: It's about big steps.
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: And the only way the glory... will rest on your
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: shoulder is that you're prepared to.
• 59:15
  Speaker 2: Take I.
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: Don't know who I'm preaching to But before this year
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: is out, you're about to take a big step. Step
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: out of the promise of God. Step out of the
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: power of God.
• 59:38
  Speaker 2: Do it like this. Take a big step.
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: Take a big step. God's kind of your baby step.
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: Take a big step. Take a big step and watch
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: God bless you. Give me some praise music. Take me
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: back to the storefront. Take me back. me in the balcony?
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: Can you hear me in the balcony?
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: If you're sitting in the balcony, take some big steps.
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: Take some big steps. Can you hear me in Chicago?
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 2: Can you hear me in Charlotte? Can you hear me
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 2: in Los Angeles? Can you hear me in London? God said,
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 2: Here's your takeaway.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: You think that because you feel fear, you shouldn't move.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: But if I let fear stop me, I would never move.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 2: Noah moved with.
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: Fear, but it was by faith. Being warned of God
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: of things not yet seen. built an ark to the
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: saving of his house.
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 2: This text.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 1: Is Jeremiah 18. The vessel that he made of clay
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: was marred in the hand of the potter. Means the
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: vessel that looked like what he had in his mind
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: what he had imagined it to look like.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 2: So he made it again another.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 1: How can it be it and another? Because God can
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: make changes that turns it into another. Wait a minute,
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: don't clap if you ain't a big stepper. I don't
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 1: want to pastor nobody that's not prepared to make some
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: big steps log off if you're not a big stepper
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: this is a big stepper conversation the grace to make
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: changes is for people who can feel the fear and
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 1: move with it move with it move with it I'm
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: afraid but I'm going to move with it I'm going
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: to make it work for me I'm going to hit
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: you harder because I'm scared of you. I was in
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 1: the street. I ran into a guy. He said, I'm bad.
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 1: You don't know who you're fooling with. I said, you bad?
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 1: I said, I'm scared. I said, scared trumps bad. Because
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 1: bad is cool. Scared will do anything. I will bite
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 1: your finger off. I will poke you in your eye.
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 1: I will bite your lip off. Because scared is crazy.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 1: Now you bad. I'm crazy.
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 2: Let's see what happens.
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 1: Because you're moving with cool, I'm moving with fear. I
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: will drive a car over you. I will burn you
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: up and eat marshmallows in your front yard. Because I'm crazy.
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: I'm scared of you. Because if you hit me, it
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: might hurt. But if you're on fire, you're going to
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: be busy. I will keep you busy. Jump me. Expect crazy.
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: Noah moved with fear. The worst person to fight is
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: somebody who's scared of you.
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 2: Because they ain't going to give you a chance.
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: They'll catch you asleep. My mama used to say, I'll
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 1: pour hot grease in your ear. She said, hot chicken
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 1: frying grease. And pour it in your ear and let
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 1: you run out the underside while you sleep. That's moving
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 1: with fear. My daddy was 280 and six foot tall.
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: He didn't mess with her. Because he was bad, she
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 1: was crazy. Crazy trumps bad all in the head. What
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: will you go crazy about? What will you go crazy
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: to build? What will you go crazy to accomplish? You
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: got this last thrust. What you gonna do with it?
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: Some of you got five more thrusts. Some of you
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: just got one. What you gonna do? You gonna waste
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: your last thrust on a little baby step? Poke a
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: poke a little bit, didn't you? You ain't got time
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: to take a little step. The weirdest thing when David
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: brought the Ark of the Covenant back, the only way
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: the Ark rested is that it rested on the shoulders
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: of priests who would make big steps. This is a
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 1: big stepper message. Who am I preaching to today? Noah
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 1: built something. It wasn't a yacht. It wasn't a fishing boat.
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 1: It saved his whole house. It saved everything that reflected
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: God's glory. God made a new heaven and a new
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: earth out of what a man built. I'm telling you
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: that God wants you to build something that causes your
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 1: great-great-grandchildren to blow kisses at your picture. I don't care, Donna,
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: if it's cake patter. I don't care if it's pancake batter.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 1: I don't care if it's waffle batter. I don't care
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 1: if it's syrup. I don't care if it's onion soup.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: Make something out of it. God gives you the grace
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: to make changes, not excuses. There is no grace to
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 1: make excuses. There's grace to make changes. everything you've been
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: crying about and fussing about and complaining about and asking
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 1: God to do something about, you do something about it.
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 1: You want to make it better, make it better. You
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: can't make it better making it worse. Make it better.
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: Shut up and make it better. Stop complaining about it
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 1: and make it better. You don't like the garage, make
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: it better. You don't like the car, make it better.
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 1: You don't like the marriage, make it better. You don't
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: like the ministry, make it better. I don't need nobody
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 1: else telling me what's wrong.
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 2: Fix it.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 1: Change it. Make it better. You got the grace to
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: make changes. I don't go to the tailor for him
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 1: to tell me what's wrong with the suit. I brought
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 1: it to you to fix it. God said, I brought
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: you that problem to fix it.
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 2: And I gave you the grace.
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: To make changes. Type it on the line, I got
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: the grace to make changes. Your excuses are going to
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 1: not want you to do it. Because if you write this,
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 1: it will kill your excuses. Say, I've got the grace
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 1: to make changes. Say it to yourself, I've got the
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 1: grace to make changes. This is my year to make changes.
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 1: I'm anointed to make changes. I'm gifted to make changes.
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 1: I got the grace to make changes. It's not up
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: to my husband. It's not up to my wife. It's
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 1: not up to my mama. It's not up to my boss.
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: I've got the grace to make changes. Say it with me.
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: I got the grace to make changes. In a moment,
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 1: I'm going to pray for change agents. I'm going to
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 1: pray for change agents. That does not necessarily mean bishops
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 1: and elders. It could, but it doesn't have to mean that.
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 1: Naaman was the captain of the host of Syria, but
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 1: his change agent was making the bed. The maid turned
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: the whole story upside down while she was making the bed.
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 1: She said, there's a prophet in Israel. I don't care
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: what your socioeconomic level is in life, the color of
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 1: your skin, your ethnicity, what country you're from, whether you're
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 1: young or you're so old you can't see the screen.
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: The reason you still breathe is to make changes. In
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 1: a moment, I'm going to pray for change agents. I
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: particularly am drawn to people who have chaos and trauma,
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: who have been drowning in stuff that you're supposed to
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 1: build in. Don't you see, sir? Noah's ark made no
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: sense without a flood. His life's work meant nothing without trouble.
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 1: The flood is what made the ark work. If you
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 1: stop the flood, the ark makes no sense. It's just
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 1: decoration in his backyard without the flood.
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 2: Stop praying about the flood and build your ark. You've
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 2: been praying, God stop the rain, God stop the rain,
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 2: oh God stop the rain, oh God stop the rain.
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you something. You need every problem you
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 1: got to give you buoyancy. Because you're going to ride
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 1: on the wave of trouble. The trouble is going to
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 1: give you buoyancy. You're going to want to thank all
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 1: your haters. Because your haters made you hurry up. I
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 1: told some friends of mine we were doing a deal.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 1: I said hurry up and close the deal. Hurry up
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: and close it because we got enemies. When I see enemies,
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: I get in a hurry. I don't draw back. When
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 1: I see you won't fight me, I'm going to shut
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 1: it down. Shut it down. Shut it down. Stop arguing
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 1: with them and shut it down. I don't have grace
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 1: to argue. I got grace to build. I got grace
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 1: to make changes. You've got grace to make changes. And
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 1: God wanted me to talk to your head because you're
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 1: approaching the storm the wrong way. You think victory is
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 1: stopping the water. If you stop the water, the boat
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: won't work. The water is your friend. It's gonna lift
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 1: you up. You're gonna sail on it. You are not
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 1: called to stop the rain. You're called to build the ark, Noah.
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 1: Your kids are counting on you to build something that's
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 1: bigger than you. That's more important than you. This right here,
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: this right here is bigger than T.D.
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 6: Jakes.
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 2: I don't need this much room.
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 1: This is about you and your children and your future.
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 1: This is about the ability for you to sit wherever
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 1: you're sitting in the world and hear me in whatever
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 1: language you speak. This was about you. Because God wanted
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 1: you to hear today. It's the day for you to
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: make big steps. I'm not talking about crazy steps. I'm
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 1: not talking about just doing something to be stupid. There
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 1: are specific guidelines that Noah had to follow. But they
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 1: were big steps. And the ark only rests on the
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 1: backs of men who will make big steps. I don't
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 1: want no children that won't make big steps. Big steps.
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: Big steps. I'd rather help you get out of trouble
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 1: in a big step than put up with watching you
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 1: make little steps and waste your life. Don't stop that.
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 1: Do something that scares you. Do something that makes you pray.
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 1: Do something that keeps you up at night. Do something
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 1: that puts a gleam in your eye. Do something that
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: you got fear and faith living in the same apartment building.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 1: I'm so faithed up about it. I can't stand it.
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 1: And then turn over and say, Lord, I'm scared to death, Jesus.
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 1: If you don't give me how this, you know, I
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 1: don't know what I'm doing. Get up in the morning
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 1: and say, I believe God, though he slay me. Who
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 1: am I talking to? Where are my schizo saints at?
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 1: I need some schizo saints. I need some schizo saints online.
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: Some schizo saints. Depend on what time you talk to me,
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: which way I'm talking. One day I'm talking like I'm crazy.
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 1: One day I'm talking like I'm scared to death. But
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 1: leave my fear alone. Because my fear won't let me
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 1: be lazy. My fear won't let me be late. My
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 1: fear won't let me take you for granted. My fear
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 1: of what you might do has saved me from your attack.
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 1: My fear of what could happen made me careful. Leave
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 1: my fear alone. Leave my fear. My fear and my
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: faith are roommates in this text. If my faith It's
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 1: a hammer. My fear is the nail. The reason I'm
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 1: going to invade the space because I know you won't
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 1: let me in on your own. I'm sharp to penetrate
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 1: you because I know you don't like me. I'm good
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: with it. I ain't going to spend my life trying
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 1: to get you to change your mind because you're changing
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 1: your mind is not my goal. My goal is to
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 1: make changes. Your goal is to do what? Your goal
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 1: is to do what? Your goal is to do what?
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: Your goal is to do what? So the stuff you're
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 1: praying about, God left. If God didn't move it, he
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 1: left you there so your ark would have something to
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 1: ride on. So your testimony would have buoyancy. So they
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: could see that if it wasn't for God, you wouldn't
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 1: have made it. He didn't mean for mom and them.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 2: To get you out.
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 1: Because then you'd have to praise mom and them. He
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 1: meant for them to hurt your feelings. to wean you
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 1: from depending on other people to get you out, this
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 1: is a job for God. I believe you're online. I
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 1: can't see you. All I see is a red dot,
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 1: but in my spirit, I see you. And I see you.
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 1: You got big dreams and big ideas. And some of
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 1: the ideas you have, people wouldn't even believe that somebody
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 1: like you in a situation like you would ever have
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 1: an idea like that. You don't have the resources and
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 1: you don't have the relationships and you don't have the money.
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 1: You don't understand anything, but you got the dream. God
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 1: said he's going to bring you into big rooms. He's
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 1: going to bring you into big settings. He's going to
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 1: bring you into big atmospheres. He's going to put you
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 1: in a land of big ideas. The Lord said you're
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 1: closer to it than you've ever been in your life.
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 1: If you give up now, you're going to miss your moment.
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 1: The reason God had you online is to get this word.
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 1: God wants you to pick up your pace. He wants
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 1: you to move with fear. What you're doing is not
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 1: about you. It's about your daughter. It's about your son.
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 1: It's about your grandson. It's about the generations that are
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 1: coming after you. This ain't even about you. They gonna
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 1: walk into an ark they didn't even build. They just
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 1: gonna walk on in the door and sit down because
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 1: you're gonna have it all built.
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 2: When they come.
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 1: I want everybody in this room that's got a hundred
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 1: dollars to get it in your hand get it in
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 1: your hand I don't care if it's online I don't
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 1: care if it's in the phone get it get it
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 1: get it Everybody that's got $ 100, I want.
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 2: You to get it.
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 1: If you don't have it, don't worry about it. Don't
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 1: worry about it. I'm not going to embarrass you. If
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 1: you've got $ 100, you've got access to $ 100. If you're online,
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: you've got access to $ 100. This is not just about
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 1: an offering.
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 2: I want to prove a point.
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: The reason there's nothing after $ 100, there's nothing after $ 100.
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: After you go to $ 100, you've got to go back.
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 2: To $ 100.
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 1: Because there's nothing beyond 100%. Do young people say keep
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 1: it 100? Because that means that 85 won't do it.
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: Is there anything that you have ever put your all into?
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 1: If you are going to make this change, God wants
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 1: 100% out of you. Not 85% faith, 15% complaints. Not
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 1: 15% of guilt and rage and anger. You've never been
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 1: healed enough to be whole. There's a difference between being
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 1: healed and being whole. All the lepers got healed. One
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 1: of them was made whole. A whole means there's nothing
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 1: left fraction. It's 100%. This is for 100% people. This
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 1: is for 100% people. Whether you're online or in the building,
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 1: I don't just want you to sow 100 if you're
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 1: not going to give 100 to the thing you believe
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 1: God for in your life. I want this to be
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 1: a commitment that today I realize.
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 2: I'm not giving 100% to my kids. Yes.
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 1: Or my wife, or my ministry, or my job. They
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 1: have all got a little slice. Today I realize that
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 1: maybe I don't know what it's like to really give
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 1: all of me to.
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 2: Anything.
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 1: And I've had success, but I've had it off of
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 1: fragments and pieces. But I've never given 100% to anything.
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 1: And I just realized, how can I be discouraged when
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 1: I haven't been fully committed?
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 2: How can I expect a hundredfold return while I got
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 2: 30% investment?
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 1: I haven't consistently shot 100% at anything before I die.
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: I owe it to myself to see what would happen
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 1: if I showed up 100. Somebody shout 100. Don't play
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 1: with me. This is for people who are going to
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 1: show up 100 in your own dream, in your own reality,
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 1: in what God has spoken to you to give it 100%.
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 2: Because God said 80 won't do it. 80% will not
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 2: do it. Once a month will not do it.
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 1: Sometimes when you feel like being in a good mood
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 1: won't do it, God said he wants you to move
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 1: with fear like this is important because the enemy is
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 1: trying to sabotage your destiny. You can't just casually fight this.
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 1: You got to move with fear because of your faith.
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 1: Your faith is exemplified in your fear. The fact that
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 1: Noah believed God is what made him scared of things
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 1: not yet seen. So don't tell me that you can't
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 1: have faith and fear because this text makes a liar
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 1: out of you. Faith and fear are roommates in the
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 1: same apartment.
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 2: And everybody up here knows it.
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 1: You have never done anything in your life worth talking
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: about that you weren't a little bit scared of. Where
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 1: are my preachers at making such noise? You have never
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 1: been mighty at anything unless you was a little bit
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 1: scared of it. You have never really prayed your guts
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 1: out until you had somebody hating on you and you
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 1: was a little bit afraid they might be right. And
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 1: they said you didn't have it and they said you
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 1: wasn't good enough and they said you couldn't do it
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 1: and you thought they might be right and you was
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 1: a little bit scared of them and you was a
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 1: little bit mad at them and you was believing God
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 1: and praying God to make a liar out of it.
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 2: If you haven't had that conflict, you ain't alive. You dead.
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 1: This is a commitment that I'm going to stop chasing ghosts,
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 1: worrying about things that don't matter. I'm going to be
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 1: 100% engaged. I want you to sow it. It's not
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 1: the money. It's what it represents. In fact, if you're
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 1: a 100% person and you only got $ 10, it's so bad. Listen,
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 1: it's what it represents. What it represents is I've never
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 1: been fully engaged. I could be 40 years old and never,
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 1: ever gave 100% to anything. And the things that I'm
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 1: complaining about not working, no wonder they don't work.
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 2: I haven't given it 100. I wish for it.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: I'm not saying that they went wrong, but I own
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 1: some responsibility. I'm complicit because I never showed up in
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 1: my own dream. It's all right when I don't show
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 1: up in your dream, but when I don't show up
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 1: in my own dream. You online, I want to join
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: my faith with yours. Here's the good news. All you
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 1: need is a hundred. You don't need to be anybody else.
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 1: 100% of you is enough to build the ark that
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 1: could change the world. You don't have to wish you
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 1: were First Lady or wish you were Pastor Phillips or
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 1: wish you were Pastor Tubman. If I could only be
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 1: Pastor Tubman. God is not asking you to be 100%
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: of somebody else. He is only asking Noah to be Noah.
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 1: To measure the wood and work on it every day
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 1: with 100% of himself. And God says, I'll hold back
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 1: the rain till you drive the last nail.
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 2: And as soon as you hit.
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 1: The last nail, the sky will go black. And I'll
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 1: send the storm to lift you up. And the storm
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 1: will make sense out of what you gave 100% of
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 1: yourself to. Lift your hands if I'm praying for you.
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 1: If I'm talking to you. If there's a little voice
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 1: in your head that says, I'm really not giving 100%.
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 1: Or maybe I'm spread so thin that I can't give 100%.
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 1: And I need to let some things go so that
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 1: I can be good, faithful over a few things means
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 1: maybe cutting back on some things so that I can
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 1: be 100% present for the things that matter most in
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 1: my life.
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 5: And I hear God talking to me today that I'm
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 5: praying for stuff that I wasn't present in. I'm asking
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 5: God to be present while I'm absent. But I have
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 5: the grace to make changes. God find every raised hand
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 5: who really hears you talking to them. We stand here
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 5: and we admit that we put in 30 and wanted
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 5: 70 out. We put in 25 into the kids. We
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 5: wanted 65 back. We put in 25 into the job
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 5: and we wanted 100 back. And we have not yet
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 5: resisted on the blood and we have not moved with
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 5: fear and we have not focused on it. We have
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 5: spent too much time playing with the phone, playing with toys,
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 5: playing with gadgets, playing with people.
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 1: Who don't want nothing. Burning up our time and our energy.
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 1: And now I'm at a deficit. I don't have 100%
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 1: because I have given 25% to people who just use
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 1: me for entertainment.
• 1:28:08
  Speaker 2: They call me because they was bored.
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 1: Today, I commit 100% of myself.
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 2: This is not about my offering.
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 1: My offering is symbolic of me. I am saying to you, God,
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 1: I'm going to give 100%. percent of myself to make changes.
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 1: If you're God enough to give me the grace and
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 1: the mercy to warn me that I'm.
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 2: Man enough and woman enough to take 100% opportunity.
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 1: To make changes and nobody knows but me and you
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 1: what my it is and I'm going to keep it
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 1: that way I'm not going to write it on an
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 1: envelope I'm not going to send it on a text
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 1: but you know what it is that I have withdrawn
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 1: myself from sometimes to protect myself from being disappointed I
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 1: withdrew myself from it and if Noah would have withdrawn
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 1: himself he would have drowned in the flood I didn't
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 1: know that you let me see it so I could
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 1: build and make changes I have the grace to make changes.
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 2: I silence every voice that has ever told you you
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 2: were not enough.
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 1: That has ever made you feel insufficient and incapable and
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 1: unloved and unwanted and unworthy. I silenced every voice that
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 1: would stand up against the knowledge of God in this text.
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 1: You have the grace to make changes. And I believe
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 1: it right now. I believe God to give you strategy.
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 1: I believe God to give you temperance. I believe God
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 1: to give you partnerships and relationships and connections and bring
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 1: you into places with people that have your rhythm, that
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 1: have your pace, that are ready to make big steps,
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 1: that are not dragging you backwards, who are ready to
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 1: move into the things of God and they don't care
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 1: who gets your credit. I pray right now against all
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 1: the people who want your titles but not your task.
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 1: They want your company. But they do not have any
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 1: collaboration to offer to you. They're just taking up space,
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 1: draining your 100. I pray you get your 100 back.
• 1:30:46

• 1:30:55
  Speaker 1: your 100 creativity, your 100% of innovative concepts. The ark
