IT WAS BUILT FOR THIS DAY.
00:02:51.070 --> 00:02:53.090

MESSAGE OF JESUS CHRIST COULD GO
00:02:56.130 --> 00:02:57.050

JESUS CHRIST.
00:03:05.250 --> 00:03:06.290
I MEAN, THIS IS A BIG PLACE, BUT
00:03:06.290 --> 00:03:08.050
IT FEELS VERY, VERY COZY,
00:03:08.120 --> 00:03:11.120
- PRISCILLA: IT'S VERY COZY,
00:03:12.200 --> 00:03:13.110
ABSOLUTELY.
00:03:13.110 --> 00:03:13.270

I THINK I'VE TOLD YOU THIS
00:03:14.260 --> 00:03:15.200
BEFORE, BUT YOUR FATHER-IN-LAW,
00:03:15.200 --> 00:03:17.250
WHEN I WAS IN COLLEGE HERE,
00:03:17.250 --> 00:03:20.000
YOUR FATHER-IN-LAW PRAYED
00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:20.250
OVER ME AND A GROUP OF FRIENDS,
00:03:20.250 --> 00:03:21.200
SO I WAS PROBABLY 19,
00:03:21.200 --> 00:03:23.110
AND HE LAID HANDS ON US,
00:03:23.110 --> 00:03:24.140
ONE AFTER THE OTHER,
00:03:24.140 --> 00:03:25.120
AND PRAYED OVER US,
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:28.060
AND SO TO BE HERE AND TO
00:03:28.060 --> 00:03:29.240
SERVE ALONGSIDE OF YOU AND JOEL
00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:31.050
IN THIS WAY,
00:03:31.050 --> 00:03:32.160
FEELS LIKE SUCH AN HONOR,
00:03:32.160 --> 00:03:33.110
I KNOW, FOR BOTH OF US,
00:03:33.110 --> 00:03:33.290
BUT I WAS JUST THINKING BACK
00:03:33.290 --> 00:03:34.190
TO JUST THE SEED THAT EVEN
00:03:34.190 --> 00:03:36.210
YOUR FATHER-IN-LAW SOWED
00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:39.240
INTO MY LITTLE OLE LIFE AT
00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:40.140
19 YEARS OLD.
00:03:40.140 --> 00:03:41.220
TO BE ABLE TO BE HERE, STANDING
00:03:41.220 --> 00:03:42.240
IN THE FRUIT OF THAT, IS SUCH A
00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:44.050
BEAUTIFUL, BREATHTAKING THING, A
00:03:44.050 --> 00:03:46.090
SIGN OF THE FAITHFULNESS OF GOD.
00:03:46.090 --> 00:03:48.050
- VICTORIA: OH, I BELIEVE HE'S
00:03:48.050 --> 00:03:48.270
JUST LOOKIN' DOWN OVER THE
00:03:48.270 --> 00:03:49.200
BANISTERS OF HEAVEN.
00:03:49.200 --> 00:03:50.220
HE'S LIKE, "YEAH, I SURE DID.
00:03:50.220 --> 00:03:51.190
LOOK AT HER GO.
00:03:51.190 --> 00:03:52.040
THAT'S SO GREAT."
00:03:52.040 --> 00:03:53.020
- TERRI: AND THEN, MY DAD AND
00:03:53.020 --> 00:03:55.010
MR. OSTEEN WOULD PREACH
00:03:55.010 --> 00:03:57.030
TOGETHER, AND NOW WE GET TO
00:03:57.030 --> 00:03:57.230
PREACH TOGETHER.
00:03:57.230 --> 00:03:58.150
- VICTORIA: YES.
00:03:58.150 --> 00:03:59.000
- TERRI: THAT'S AN HONOR.
00:03:59.000 --> 00:03:59.200
- VICTORIA: ISN'T THAT
00:03:59.200 --> 00:04:00.100
SOMETHING?
00:04:00.100 --> 00:04:00.210
- TERRI: SUCH A PRIVILEGE.
00:04:00.210 --> 00:04:01.110
- VICTORIA: YOU KNOW, THE
00:04:01.110 --> 00:04:02.010
IMPORTANCE OF GATHERING WITH
00:04:02.010 --> 00:04:02.220
WOMEN?
00:04:02.220 --> 00:04:04.000
YOU KNOW THAT, WHEN WE HAVE A
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:05.160
SYNERGY ABOUT US, I THINK WE'RE
00:04:05.160 --> 00:04:06.180
BETTER, DON'T YOU THINK?
00:04:06.180 --> 00:04:08.160
- TERRI: YES.
00:04:08.160 --> 00:04:09.010
- PRISCILLA: ABSOLUTELY.
00:04:09.010 --> 00:04:09.240
I THINK THAT WE NEED EACH OTHER
00:04:09.240 --> 00:04:10.160
TO ENCOURAGE EACH OTHER, AND WE
00:04:10.160 --> 00:04:12.040
NEED TO BE GATHERED WITH WOMEN
00:04:12.040 --> 00:04:13.150
FROM DIFFERENT SEASONS OF LIFE
00:04:13.150 --> 00:04:15.100
SO THAT THERE'S A WOMAN THAT'S
00:04:15.100 --> 00:04:16.290
ALREADY WALKED IN YOUR SHOES.
00:04:16.290 --> 00:04:18.030
SHE'S ALREADY DONE THAT SEASON
00:04:18.030 --> 00:04:19.070
OF LIFE, AND SHE CAN LOOK AT YOU
00:04:19.070 --> 00:04:20.140
AND GO, "YOU'RE GONNA MAKE IT.
00:04:20.140 --> 00:04:21.170
YOU'RE GONNA BE OKAY.
00:04:21.170 --> 00:04:22.050
JUST HANG IN THERE."
00:04:22.050 --> 00:04:23.240
I THINK THERE'S SOMETHIN'
00:04:23.240 --> 00:04:24.290
REALLY IMPORTANT ABOUT
00:04:24.290 --> 00:04:26.070
THAT IRON SHARPENING IRON.
00:04:26.070 --> 00:04:27.060
- VICTORIA: YOU KNOW, AND
00:04:27.060 --> 00:04:28.050
THAT'S SUCH A GOOD POINT
00:04:28.050 --> 00:04:29.070
BECAUSE, SO OFTEN, WE WANNA
00:04:29.070 --> 00:04:30.210
GATHER WITH PEOPLE THAT LOOK
00:04:30.210 --> 00:04:32.040
JUST LIKE US, THAT ARE IN OUR
00:04:32.040 --> 00:04:33.220
SAME SEASON, BUT MAYBE WE SHOULD
00:04:33.220 --> 00:04:36.090
THINK ABOUT THAT, THAT WE SHOULD
00:04:36.090 --> 00:04:38.030
REACH OUT AND SAY, "HEY, I WANNA
00:04:38.030 --> 00:04:40.010
MAYBE WITH AN OLDER WOMAN OR A
00:04:40.010 --> 00:04:42.240
YOUNGER WOMAN.
00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:44.090
I WANNA EITHER SPUR THEM ON, OR,
00:04:44.090 --> 00:04:46.110
YOU KNOW, MAYBE YOU HAVE SOME
00:04:46.110 --> 00:04:48.230
WISDOM TO GIVE ME."
00:04:48.230 --> 00:04:49.130
HAVE YOU ENCOUNTERED THAT IN,
00:04:49.130 --> 00:04:50.250
YOU KNOW, JUST IN YOUR
00:04:50.250 --> 00:04:51.130
FELLOWSHIP WITH WOMEN?
00:04:51.130 --> 00:04:53.060
- TERRI: YEAH, THE WHOLE IRON
00:04:53.060 --> 00:04:53.280
BUT EVEN THAT YOUR ENVIRONMENT
00:04:56.110 --> 00:04:57.030
CAN STRETCH YOU OR SHRINK YOU,
00:04:57.030 --> 00:04:57.250
AND WHEN YOU GET IN AN
00:04:57.250 --> 00:04:59.070
ENVIRONMENT LIKE THIS, WHERE
00:04:59.070 --> 00:05:00.080
YOU'RE HEARING FAITH, YOU'RE
00:05:00.080 --> 00:05:02.000
HEARING ABOUT DREAMS, AND YOU'RE
00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:03.210
SEEING OTHER PEOPLE AROUND YOU
00:05:03.210 --> 00:05:05.010
START TO COME UP HIGHER, IT ONLY
00:05:05.010 --> 00:05:06.030
- VICTORIA: YEAH, WHAT DO THEY
00:05:08.020 --> 00:05:08.240
SAY?
00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:09.020
"WHEN THE HARBOR RISES, ALL THE
00:05:09.020 --> 00:05:09.270
SHIPS RISE," AND SO I THINK THAT
00:05:09.270 --> 00:05:11.140
IS IMPORTANT THAT WE PUT OURSELF
00:05:11.280 --> 00:05:14.280
IN THAT ENVIRONMENT OF FAITH AND
00:05:14.280 --> 00:05:15.240
JUST SPEAKIN' BLESSINGS TO ONE
00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:18.090
ANOTHER.
00:05:18.090 --> 00:05:19.200
I DON'T THINK WE DO THAT ENOUGH
00:05:19.200 --> 00:05:21.120
ANYMORE, DO YOU?
00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:22.040
- PRISCILLA: YOU KNOW, I DON'T
00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:23.080
THINK WE'RE INTENTIONAL ENOUGH
00:05:23.080 --> 00:05:24.040
ABOUT IT.
00:05:24.040 --> 00:05:25.230
YOU KNOW, JUST LOOKING AT
00:05:25.230 --> 00:05:26.120
ANOTHER WOMAN OR BEING IN THE
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:27.030
ENVIRONMENT OF SOMEONE WHO,
00:05:27.030 --> 00:05:29.260
HONESTLY, THE WORLD WOULD PIT
00:05:29.260 --> 00:05:30.230
YOU AGAINST EACH OTHER BECAUSE
00:05:30.230 --> 00:05:31.150
THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT "THE
00:05:31.150 --> 00:05:32.220
OTHER" THAT IS IN COMPETITION
00:05:32.220 --> 00:05:33.240
WITH YOU, SO EVERYONE ELSE WOULD
00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:34.280
BUT PUTTING YOURSELF IN AN
00:05:37.030 --> 00:05:38.030
INTENTIONAL POSITION TO BLESS
00:05:38.030 --> 00:05:39.100
HER AND ENCOURAGE HER AND LIFT
00:05:39.100 --> 00:05:40.190
HER UP AND BE HER CHEERLEADER, I
00:05:40.190 --> 00:05:41.220
THINK THAT THERE'S SO MUCH
00:05:41.220 --> 00:05:42.270
BEAUTY AND STRENGTH IN THAT,
00:05:42.270 --> 00:05:44.230
THAT THE ENEMY DOESN'T WANT US
00:05:44.230 --> 00:05:45.150
TO KNOW ABOUT.
00:05:45.150 --> 00:05:46.290
AS LONG AS WE'RE DIVIDED, HE CAN
00:05:46.290 --> 00:05:47.290
CONQUER, BUT WHEN WE'RE UNIFIED,
00:05:47.290 --> 00:05:49.000
WHEN WE'RE STRONG TOGETHER AS A
00:05:49.000 --> 00:05:49.270
THERE'S A WHOLE LOT OF
00:05:55.030 --> 00:05:56.260
PENETRATING HE CAN'T DO--
00:05:56.260 --> 00:05:57.150
NEGATIVE THINKING, THE LIES, THE
00:05:57.150 --> 00:05:58.240
STRONGHOLDS.
00:05:58.240 --> 00:05:59.130
HE HAS A MUCH HARDER TIME WHEN
00:05:59.130 --> 00:06:01.260
WE FEEL ENCOURAGED AND UNIFIED
00:06:01.260 --> 00:06:03.170
WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE NEXT TO US.
00:06:03.170 --> 00:06:05.080
- VICTORIA: ISN'T THAT THE
00:06:05.080 --> 00:06:05.280
TRUTH?
00:06:05.280 --> 00:06:06.150
AND, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU LEARN TO
00:06:06.150 --> 00:06:07.130
BE AN ENCOURAGER, WHEN YOU LEARN
00:06:07.130 --> 00:06:08.230
TO FIND SOMETHING ABOUT
00:06:08.230 --> 00:06:11.010
SOMEONE-- 'CAUSE THERE'S-- MY
00:06:11.010 --> 00:06:12.100
MOTHER TAUGHT ME THERE IS
00:06:12.100 --> 00:06:13.110
SOMETHING AMAZING ABOUT
00:06:13.110 --> 00:06:14.220
EVERYONE, YOU KNOW?
00:06:14.220 --> 00:06:16.200
AND SHE ALWAYS TAUGHT ME THIS.
00:06:16.200 --> 00:06:18.030
SHE SAID, "WHEN YOU LOOK AT
00:06:18.030 --> 00:06:19.010
SOMEONE," SHE SAID, "FIND
00:06:19.010 --> 00:06:20.150
SOMETHIN' THAT'S BEAUTIFUL ABOUT
00:06:20.150 --> 00:06:21.160
THEM, MAYBE THEIR SMILE, THEIR
00:06:21.160 --> 00:06:23.000
EYES, THEIR LAUGH, THEIR SENSE
00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:24.150
OF HUMOR, AND BE WILLING TO TELL
00:06:24.150 --> 00:06:26.060
THEM.
00:06:26.060 --> 00:06:28.200
BE WILLING TO SAY--
00:06:28.200 --> 00:06:29.060
- PRISCILLA: I WOULD LIKE TO
00:06:29.060 --> 00:06:30.200
TELL YOU THAT YOUR HAIR IS
00:06:30.200 --> 00:06:31.100
FANTASTIC.
00:06:31.100 --> 00:06:31.280
- TERRI: OH, AND SHE JUST
00:06:31.280 --> 00:06:32.180
WHIPPED IT TOGETHER.
00:06:32.180 --> 00:06:33.210
[LAUGHTER]
00:06:33.210 --> 00:06:34.050
- VICTORIA: WE WERE TOGETHER
00:06:34.050 --> 00:06:36.100
EARLIER, AND I WAS IN THIS
00:06:36.100 --> 00:06:37.130
HOUSTON HUMIDITY, AND I WAS
00:06:37.130 --> 00:06:38.200
LIKE, "LOOK AT MY HAIR.
00:06:38.200 --> 00:06:39.120
IT'S SO FRIZZY."
00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:40.250
- TERRI: MINE WAS GOIN'
00:06:40.250 --> 00:06:41.160
STRAIGHT, AND HERS WAS FRIZZY.
00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:42.080
[LAUGHTER]
00:06:42.080 --> 00:06:42.260
- VICTORIA: BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?
00:06:42.260 --> 00:06:43.230
THAT'S TRUE.
00:06:43.230 --> 00:06:44.110
JUST TO BE NICE, JUST TO
00:06:44.110 --> 00:06:45.260
ENCOURAGE, IT JUST BREAKS THOSE
00:06:45.260 --> 00:06:47.240
WALLS DOWN, SO I JUST WANNA
00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:48.230
ENCOURAGE US ALL AS WOMEN TO--
00:06:48.230 --> 00:06:50.140
YOU KNOW, DON'T HOLD BACK THAT
00:06:50.140 --> 00:06:51.210
ENCOURAGEMENT.
00:06:51.210 --> 00:06:52.200
YOU KNOW, THE BIBLE SAYS,
00:06:52.200 --> 00:06:53.110
"ENCOURAGE ONE ANOTHER DAILY."
00:06:53.110 --> 00:06:54.260
DAILY.
00:06:54.260 --> 00:06:57.110
- TERRI: AND THEN, THAT'S ONE
00:06:57.110 --> 00:06:58.030
OF THE WAYS THAT YOU OVERCOME
00:06:58.030 --> 00:06:59.080
INSECURITY IS GIVE COMPLIMENTS
00:06:59.080 --> 00:07:01.070
AND RECEIVE COMPLIMENTS.
00:07:01.070 --> 00:07:03.180
YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU TELL SOMEONE
00:07:03.180 --> 00:07:05.040
LIKE YOU JUST TOLD HER, THAT'S A
00:07:05.040 --> 00:07:06.120
SIGN OF CONFIDENCE WHEN YOU CAN
00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:07.230
COMPLIMENT SOMEONE.
00:07:07.230 --> 00:07:08.260
- PRISCILLA: I THINK SO.
00:07:08.260 --> 00:07:09.150
- TERRI: AND THEN, ACCEPTING
00:07:09.150 --> 00:07:10.100
THEM, SOMETIMES THAT'S EVEN
00:07:10.100 --> 00:07:11.130
HARDER.
00:07:11.130 --> 00:07:12.040
[LAUGHTER]
00:07:12.040 --> 00:07:12.190
- PRISCILLA: YOU KNOW, I DON'T
00:07:12.190 --> 00:07:14.010
ONLY THINK THAT IT'S A CURE FOR
00:07:14.010 --> 00:07:15.040
CONFIDENCE, I DO THINK THAT-- I
00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:16.170
ALSO THINK THAT IT IS A CURE FOR
00:07:16.180 --> 00:07:19.180
INSECURITY, FOR JEALOUSY, THAT,
00:07:20.280 --> 00:07:23.280
WHEN YOU FEEL THAT ENVY RISING
00:07:23.280 --> 00:07:26.090
UP IN YOU, THAT THAT SHOULD BE
00:07:26.090 --> 00:07:27.160
YOUR CUE TO INTENTIONALLY BLESS
00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:29.160
THAT PERSON, THAT IT SORT OF
00:07:29.160 --> 00:07:30.240
FIXES THAT IN YOU.
00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:32.020
IT JUST KIND OF SERVES THE ENEMY
00:07:32.020 --> 00:07:33.260
NOTICE THAT YOU'RE NOT GONNA LET
00:07:33.260 --> 00:07:35.210
HIM HAVE A FIELD DAY WITH YOU IN
00:07:35.210 --> 00:07:37.080
YOUR MIND ABOUT THIS OTHER
00:07:37.080 --> 00:07:37.290
PERSON, YOU KNOW?
00:07:37.290 --> 00:07:39.160
- TERRI: THAT'S SO GOOD.
00:07:39.160 --> 00:07:40.100
- PRISCILLA: SO I LOVE THAT SO
00:07:40.100 --> 00:07:41.020
MUCH WHAT YOU SAID.
00:07:41.020 --> 00:07:41.190
- TERRI: IT IS HARD WHEN
00:07:41.190 --> 00:07:42.080
SOMEONE-- I MEAN, I USED TO MAKE
00:07:42.080 --> 00:07:43.100
PEOPLE FEEL BAD WHEN THEY'D
00:07:43.100 --> 00:07:44.070
COMPLIMENT ME.
00:07:44.070 --> 00:07:45.230
THEY'D SAY, "YOUR HAIR LOOKS
00:07:45.230 --> 00:07:46.250
GREAT," AND I'D BE LIKE, "YOU'RE
00:07:46.250 --> 00:07:49.160
CRAZY IF YOU THINK MY HAIR LOOKS
00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:50.080
GOOD."
00:07:50.080 --> 00:07:50.230
[LAUGHTER]
00:07:50.230 --> 00:07:51.070
MAKE 'EM FEEL BAD, YOU KNOW?
00:07:51.070 --> 00:07:52.090
BUT EVEN JUST PRACTICING, GOIN',
00:07:52.090 --> 00:07:54.010
"THANK YOU," THAT HELPS, DOESN'T
00:07:54.010 --> 00:07:56.020
IT?
00:07:56.020 --> 00:07:58.270
- VICTORIA: IT DOES.
00:07:58.270 --> 00:07:59.140
I THINK IT BREAKS DOWN THE
00:07:59.140 --> 00:08:00.060
BARRIER.
00:08:00.060 --> 00:08:00.240
I USED TO HAVE A REALLY HARD
00:08:00.240 --> 00:08:02.180
TIME WITH COMPLIMENTS.
00:08:02.180 --> 00:08:03.210
I COULD GIVE 'EM ALL DAY LONG,
00:08:03.210 --> 00:08:04.170
BUT WHEN SOMEONE COMPLIMENTED
00:08:04.170 --> 00:08:05.260
ME, I THOUGHT, "REALLY?"
00:08:05.260 --> 00:08:07.180
YOU SAID TO ME-- SHE SAID, "YOUR
00:08:07.180 --> 00:08:08.110
HAIR LOOKS GOOD," 'CAUSE SHE SAW
00:08:08.110 --> 00:08:10.000
IT A FEW MINUTES AGO-- IT WAS
00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:11.190
ALL FRIZZY.
00:08:11.190 --> 00:08:12.130
I WAS LIKE, "REALLY?"
00:08:12.130 --> 00:08:13.120
YOU KNOW, AND I HAVE TO CATCH
00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:14.080
MYSELF.
00:08:14.080 --> 00:08:14.260
AND YOU KNOW WHAT I HAD DECIDED
00:08:14.260 --> 00:08:16.290
ONE DAY?
00:08:16.290 --> 00:08:17.150
WHEN I REALIZED I'M NOT
00:08:17.150 --> 00:08:18.230
RECEIVING A COMPLIMENT, I
00:08:18.230 --> 00:08:19.230
STOPPED, AND I SAID, "YOU KNOW
00:08:19.230 --> 00:08:21.190
I'M GONNA ACT LIKE THAT JUST
00:08:23.160 --> 00:08:24.070
CAME FROM YOU.
00:08:24.070 --> 00:08:25.010
I'M GONNA RECEIVE THAT
00:08:25.010 --> 00:08:26.070
COMPLIMENT LIKE YOU GAVE IT TO
00:08:26.070 --> 00:08:27.070
ME," AND THAT HELP ME SO MUCH
00:08:27.070 --> 00:08:27.280
BECAUSE GOD USES PEOPLE.
00:08:27.280 --> 00:08:29.150
HE WANTS TO SPEAK TO US THROUGH
00:08:29.150 --> 00:08:31.220
AND INSTEAD OF HOLDIN' SOMEBODY
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:35.220
BACK AT A DISTANCE OR NOT
00:08:35.220 --> 00:08:36.110
BELIEVING THAT IT'S TRUE,
00:08:36.110 --> 00:08:39.040
YOU KNOW, JUST SAY, LIKE YOU
00:08:39.040 --> 00:08:40.230
SAID, JUST-- I JUST RECEIVE IT.
00:08:40.230 --> 00:08:43.110
- TERRI: "THANK YOU."
00:08:43.110 --> 00:08:43.280
- VICTORIA: YOU KNOW, TONIGHT,
00:08:43.280 --> 00:08:45.150
WHAT IS ON YOUR HEART TO REALLY
00:08:45.150 --> 00:08:46.070
SHARE WITH THE WOMEN?
00:08:46.070 --> 00:08:46.270
I KNOW THERE'S GONNA BE, YOU
00:08:46.270 --> 00:08:47.200
KNOW, THOUSANDS, THOUSANDS OF
00:08:47.200 --> 00:08:49.180
WOMEN OUT THERE THAT ARE JUST
00:08:49.180 --> 00:08:50.090
GONNA BE WANTING TO BE
00:08:50.090 --> 00:08:53.040
ENCOURAGED, AND I KNOW YOU'RE
00:08:53.040 --> 00:08:53.250
GONNA SHARE A GREAT MESSAGE.
00:08:53.250 --> 00:08:55.000
YOU'RE AN AMAZING BIBLE TEACHER.
00:08:55.250 --> 00:08:58.250
- PRISCILLA: THANK YOU.
00:08:58.250 --> 00:08:59.280
- VICTORIA: YOU'RE AN AMAZING
00:08:59.280 --> 00:09:00.210
ENCOURAGER.
00:09:00.210 --> 00:09:01.030
- TERRI: AH, SHE'S GOT IT
00:09:01.030 --> 00:09:01.230
ALREADY.
00:09:01.230 --> 00:09:02.090
[LAUGHTER]
00:09:02.090 --> 00:09:02.240
- VICTORIA: YOU'RE AN AMAZING
00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:03.160
ACTRESS.
00:09:03.160 --> 00:09:04.030
- TERRI: ACTRESS.
00:09:04.030 --> 00:09:04.280
- VICTORIA: YOU'VE DONE THE
00:09:04.280 --> 00:09:05.190
GAMUT.
00:09:05.190 --> 00:09:06.100
THAT'S SO COOL.
00:09:06.100 --> 00:09:07.110
- TERRI: SHE'S THE TRIPLE
00:09:07.110 --> 00:09:08.010
THREAT, ISN'T SHE?
00:09:08.010 --> 00:09:08.200
- PRISCILLA: WELL, IT'S BEEN
00:09:08.200 --> 00:09:10.150
FUN.
00:09:10.150 --> 00:09:11.150
NOW, IT'S BEEN AN ADVENTURE,
00:09:11.150 --> 00:09:12.110
I'LL TELL YOU THAT.
00:09:12.110 --> 00:09:12.290
JUST, KIND OF, GOIN' ALONG WITH
00:09:12.290 --> 00:09:13.210
GOD, GOIN', "WHAT?
00:09:13.210 --> 00:09:14.140
WHAT ARE WE DOIN' NEXT?"
00:09:14.140 --> 00:09:15.100
AND IT'S FUN.
00:09:15.100 --> 00:09:16.180
I THINK THAT'S--
00:09:16.180 --> 00:09:17.110
- TERRI: HAS IT STRETCHED YOU
00:09:17.110 --> 00:09:18.230
OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE?
00:09:18.230 --> 00:09:19.170
- PRISCILLA: OH, ARE YOU
00:09:19.170 --> 00:09:20.060
KIDDING?
00:09:20.060 --> 00:09:20.270
I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOING,
00:09:20.270 --> 00:09:21.180
BUT I JUST GO, "OKAY, LORD, IF
00:09:21.180 --> 00:09:23.050
THIS IS THE DOOR THAT WE CAN,
00:09:23.050 --> 00:09:25.090
KIND OF, THROUGH PRAYER AND WISE
00:09:25.090 --> 00:09:26.090
COUNSEL, SEE THAT YOU'RE
00:09:26.090 --> 00:09:27.030
OPENING, AND IT'S WHAT WILL
00:09:27.030 --> 00:09:28.260
GLORIFY YOUR NAME THROUGH MY
00:09:28.260 --> 00:09:30.150
LIFE, THEN I REFUSE TO LET FEAR
00:09:30.150 --> 00:09:33.100
KEEP ME FROM DOING IT," AND IF
00:09:33.100 --> 00:09:34.170
LEFT TO MY OWN DEVICES, I WOULD.
00:09:34.170 --> 00:09:35.190
I WOULD GO, "UH-UH, YOU NEED A
00:09:35.190 --> 00:09:36.280
TRAINED ACTOR.
00:09:36.280 --> 00:09:38.240
YOU NEED A TRAINED PERSON TO DO
00:09:38.240 --> 00:09:40.130
THAT," BUT IF I HAD LET FEAR
00:09:40.130 --> 00:09:42.020
TALK ME OUT OF BEING OBEDIENT,
00:09:42.140 --> 00:09:45.140
MOST OF WHAT THE LORD HAS
00:09:45.140 --> 00:09:47.250
ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH OUR LIFE
00:09:47.250 --> 00:09:49.150
ARE ENTRUSTED TO US IN MINISTRY,
00:09:49.150 --> 00:09:50.280
EVEN AS A WIFE AND A MOM; MOST
00:09:50.280 --> 00:09:52.230
OF IT, I WOULD HAVE LOST THE
00:09:52.230 --> 00:09:53.180
PRIVILEGE OF BEING A PART OF IT.
00:09:53.180 --> 00:09:55.000
SO THAT'S THE THING: GOD'S WORK
00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:56.220
GOES ON WITHOUT US, BUT WE MISS
00:09:56.220 --> 00:09:58.020
OUT ON THE GIFT OF BEIN' A PART
00:09:58.020 --> 00:10:00.270

ENOUGH TO GO, "OKAY," AND I
00:10:06.070 --> 00:10:08.160
OFTEN SAY TO THE LORD IN PRAYER,
00:10:09.110 --> 00:10:12.110
"IF I WERE YOU, I WOULD NOT
00:10:12.110 --> 00:10:13.290
WANNA EMBARRASS MYSELF, SO YOU
00:10:13.290 --> 00:10:14.250
BETTER MAKE THIS WORK OUT,
00:10:14.250 --> 00:10:16.150
LORD."
00:10:16.150 --> 00:10:17.160

00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:21.140
- VICTORIA: SO WE'LL JUST TALK
00:10:21.140 --> 00:10:22.140

SO MANY TIMES, WE'RE STRUGGLIN'.
00:10:41.220 --> 00:10:43.020
"GOD, WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO
00:10:43.020 --> 00:10:44.100

LIKE THE COMPLIMENT,
00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:56.010
"I RECEIVE THAT, LORD."
00:10:56.010 --> 00:10:57.030
WHEN YOU HEAR SOMEONE SPEAK
00:10:57.030 --> 00:10:58.220

SOMETHIN' TONIGHT, AND I
00:11:00.250 --> 00:11:02.050

00:11:02.050 --> 00:11:03.080
"YOU KNOW WHAT?
00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:04.140
I RECEIVE THAT.
00:11:04.140 --> 00:11:05.060
I WILL WRITE THAT DOWN.
00:11:05.060 --> 00:11:06.150
I WILL FIGHT THAT FEAR.
00:11:06.150 --> 00:11:07.220

00:11:07.220 --> 00:11:10.000
LORD, I KNOW THAT YOU'VE

ONE DAY SHE SAID, "WE'RE GOING
00:12:29.200 --> 00:12:31.130
TO LAKEWOOD."
00:12:31.130 --> 00:12:33.150
AND WE WENT TO LAKEWOOD WHEN

LEADERSHIP OF JOHN OSTEEN.
00:12:50.150 --> 00:12:53.150
AND THEN SHE FILED US UP FRONT
00:12:53.150 --> 00:12:54.070
DURING THE PRAYER TIME, AND THAT
00:12:54.070 --> 00:12:56.030
MAN WALKED DOWN THE ROW,
00:12:56.030 --> 00:12:58.010
MISS OSTEEN, AND HE LAID HANDS
00:12:58.010 --> 00:12:59.170

[LAUGHTER]
00:14:02.270 --> 00:14:03.120
THAT IS MY FULL-TIME JOB.
00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:05.080
I AM TRYING TO FIGURE OUT ANY

WHICH WAY I CAN DIFFERENTLY TO
00:14:06.200 --> 00:14:08.170
COOK CHICKEN FOR DINNER EVERY

THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I'M DOIN'.
00:14:12.090 --> 00:14:13.000
SO WE JUST DO SPORTS AND
00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:13.260
EVERYTHING WITH THE BOYS, AND
00:14:13.260 --> 00:14:15.100
THEY'RE GROWIN' UP SO QUICK, SO
00:14:15.100 --> 00:14:16.220
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I HAVE
00:14:16.220 --> 00:14:18.080
DONE SINCE MY OLDEST WAS FIVE--
00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:19.180
I STARTED WHEN HE WAS FIVE-- I
00:14:19.180 --> 00:14:21.030
WENT TO A ROSS DRESS FOR LESS.
00:14:21.030 --> 00:14:24.010
IN THE BACK-HAND CORNER,
00:14:24.010 --> 00:14:25.250
LEFT-HAND SIDE, THERE IS ONE ROW
00:14:25.250 --> 00:14:27.270
THAT HAS BOOKS AND JOURNALS AND
00:14:27.270 --> 00:14:29.150
THOSE SORTS OF THINGS.
00:14:29.150 --> 00:14:31.150
I WENT AND I GRABBED THREE
00:14:31.150 --> 00:14:33.130
JOURNALS, HARDBACK JOURNALS.
00:14:33.130 --> 00:14:35.270
THEY WERE JUST LITTLE, WITH
00:14:35.270 --> 00:14:37.260
LITTLE SPINE, SPIRAL SPINES,
00:14:37.260 --> 00:14:38.290
NOTHIN' REAL FANCY, 4.99.
00:14:38.290 --> 00:14:40.280
I PICKED ONE FOR EACH BOY.
00:14:40.280 --> 00:14:43.050
I'VE HAD IT EVER SINCE MY OLDEST
00:14:43.050 --> 00:14:45.130
WAS FIVE, AND AT THAT AGE, I
00:14:45.130 --> 00:14:47.010
STARTED TO RECORD A JOURNAL FOR
00:14:47.010 --> 00:14:47.260
THEM.
00:14:47.260 --> 00:14:50.120
I DO NOT WRITE IN IT EVERY WEEK
00:14:50.120 --> 00:14:51.120
OR EVERY MONTH OR EVEN, YOU
00:14:51.120 --> 00:14:52.200
KNOW, JUST ON A REGULAR BASIS.
00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:55.020
IT'S JUST WHEN SOMETHING HAPPENS
00:14:55.020 --> 00:14:56.140
I DON'T WANNA FORGET OR THEY SAY
00:14:56.140 --> 00:14:57.230
SOMETHING THAT'S REALLY
00:14:57.230 --> 00:14:59.030
INTERESTING OR I SEE THE HAND,
00:14:59.030 --> 00:15:01.030
THE HANDIWORK, THE FINGERPRINTS
00:15:01.030 --> 00:15:03.070
OF GOD IN THEIR LIFE IN SOME
00:15:03.070 --> 00:15:04.270
WAY, I KIND OF WRITE IT DOWN.
00:15:04.270 --> 00:15:05.280
MY GOAL IS TO HAVE A COLLECTION
00:15:05.280 --> 00:15:08.000
OF WRITINGS AND THOUGHTS AND
00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:09.200
LOVE LETTERS, REALLY, TO MY BOYS
00:15:09.200 --> 00:15:12.050
ABOUT THEIR LIFE THAT I HAND
00:15:12.050 --> 00:15:13.110
OVER TO THEM WHEN THEY'RE, YOU
00:15:13.110 --> 00:15:15.010
KNOW, MATURE ENOUGH TO
00:15:15.010 --> 00:15:15.190
APPRECIATE IT, OR BETTER YET, I
00:15:15.190 --> 00:15:16.210
MIGHT JUST HAND IT OVER TO THEIR
00:15:16.210 --> 00:15:17.160
WIVES AND SAY, "GIRL--"
00:15:17.160 --> 00:15:18.150

00:15:26.210 --> 00:15:27.230
AND BECAUSE MY OLDEST WILL BE
00:15:27.230 --> 00:15:30.020
16, NEXT MONTH, I WAS LOOKING
00:15:30.020 --> 00:15:32.290
THROUGH HIS JOURNAL AND CAME
00:15:32.290 --> 00:15:34.030
ACROSS THIS STORY FROM WHEN HE
00:15:34.030 --> 00:15:34.250
WAS 5.
00:15:34.250 --> 00:15:37.040
I READ IT WITH FOND MEMORIES
00:15:37.040 --> 00:15:38.210
BECAUSE IT WAS THE LITTLE
00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:42.000
JOURNAL ENTRY I PUT IN THERE
00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:42.230
ABOUT HIM LOSING HIS FIRST
00:15:42.230 --> 00:15:43.170
TOOTH.
00:15:43.170 --> 00:15:45.180
HE HAD WIGGLED THAT TOOTH AND
00:15:45.180 --> 00:15:47.080
WIGGLED IT.
00:15:47.080 --> 00:15:48.240
HE COULDN'T WAIT FOR IT TO COME
00:15:48.240 --> 00:15:49.160
OUT.
00:15:49.160 --> 00:15:49.260
AND THE REASON HE COULDN'T WAIT
00:15:49.260 --> 00:15:51.150
FOR IT TO COME OUT IS BECAUSE WE
00:15:51.150 --> 00:15:53.020
HAD TOLD HIM THAT, "WHEN YOUR
00:15:53.020 --> 00:15:55.290
TOOTH COMES OUT, THE TOOTH FAIRY
00:15:55.290 --> 00:15:56.290
WILL COME."
00:15:56.290 --> 00:15:57.120
[LAUGHTER]
00:15:57.120 --> 00:15:59.060
"SHE WILL COME, AND SHE WILL
00:15:59.060 --> 00:15:59.270
REPLACE THE TOOTH WITH A
00:15:59.270 --> 00:16:01.000
TREASURE."
00:16:01.000 --> 00:16:03.040
SO HE COULD NOT WAIT.
00:16:03.040 --> 00:16:04.090
FINALLY, THE TOOTH CAME OUT, AND
00:16:04.090 --> 00:16:05.220
THAT IS MY BOY, STILL TO THIS
00:16:05.220 --> 00:16:07.190
DAY, THAT HAS NEVER BEEN EAGER
00:16:07.190 --> 00:16:10.180
TO GO TO SLEEP, BUT THAT NIGHT,
00:16:10.180 --> 00:16:12.080
HE DOVE INTO BED AT BEDTIME.
00:16:12.080 --> 00:16:15.060
HE COULD NOT WAIT.
00:16:15.060 --> 00:16:16.020
HE PUT THE TOOTH UNDERNEATH THE
00:16:16.020 --> 00:16:17.230
PILLOW.
00:16:17.230 --> 00:16:18.120
HE LAID HIS HEAD DOWN, AND HE
00:16:18.120 --> 00:16:20.010
WAS TRYIN' TO GO TO SLEEP, BUT
00:16:20.010 --> 00:16:21.070
EVERY THREE TO FIVE SECONDS, HE
00:16:21.070 --> 00:16:22.140
WOULD LOOK UNDER THE PILLOW--
00:16:22.140 --> 00:16:23.150
[LAUGHTER]
00:16:23.150 --> 00:16:24.020
-- TO SEE IF ANYTHING HAD
00:16:24.020 --> 00:16:25.150
HAPPENED.
00:16:25.150 --> 00:16:26.050
FINALLY, HE DID FALL ASLEEP.
00:16:26.050 --> 00:16:28.190
WE LET SOME TIME PASS, AND THEN
00:16:28.190 --> 00:16:31.190
ABOUT 3 O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING,
00:16:31.190 --> 00:16:33.050
OR SO, THE 6 FOOT 2, 250-POUND
00:16:33.050 --> 00:16:35.250
"TOOTH FAIRY" THAT I SLEEP NEXT
00:16:35.250 --> 00:16:37.280
TO EVERY NIGHT--
00:16:37.280 --> 00:16:38.160
[LAUGHTER]
00:16:38.160 --> 00:16:39.080
-- HE GOT UP.
00:16:39.080 --> 00:16:40.030
HE WENT UPSTAIRS, AND HE
00:16:40.030 --> 00:16:41.000
REPLACED THE TOOTH FOR A
00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:42.130
TREASURE.
00:16:42.130 --> 00:16:44.030
IN THE MORNING, I KNEW WHEN
00:16:44.030 --> 00:16:44.230
JACKSON-- AND AT THE TIME, WE
00:16:44.230 --> 00:16:46.140
JUST HAD JACKSON AND JERRY, JR.
00:16:46.140 --> 00:16:47.140
KNEW WHEN THEY GOT UP.
00:16:47.140 --> 00:16:49.040
I KNEW.
00:16:49.040 --> 00:16:49.220
I COULD HEAR IT.
00:16:49.220 --> 00:16:50.110
I COULD HEAR THE EXCITEMENT, THE
00:16:50.110 --> 00:16:51.110
SQUEALS.
00:16:51.110 --> 00:16:52.010
I COULD HEAR THE STOMPS ON THE
00:16:52.010 --> 00:16:53.000
FLOOR.
00:16:53.000 --> 00:16:53.130
I COULD HEAR THE EAGERNESS AND
00:16:53.130 --> 00:16:55.080
ENTHUSIASM BECAUSE THE TOOTH
00:16:55.080 --> 00:16:56.040
FAIRY HAD COME AND LEFT A
00:16:56.040 --> 00:16:57.050
TREASURE.
00:16:57.050 --> 00:16:57.240
THEY BOUNDED DOWN THE STAIRS,
00:16:57.240 --> 00:16:59.000
INTO THE ROOM.
00:16:59.000 --> 00:16:59.290
JACKSON'S FISTS WERE BOTH
00:16:59.290 --> 00:17:01.170
CLENCHED CLOSED.
00:17:01.170 --> 00:17:02.270
HE RAN UP TO ME AND SAID, "MOM,
00:17:02.270 --> 00:17:04.050
THE TOOTH FAIRY CAME.
00:17:04.050 --> 00:17:06.020
SHE LEFT ME A TREASURE."
00:17:06.020 --> 00:17:07.070
I SAID, "BUDDY, LET ME SEE
00:17:07.070 --> 00:17:09.050
WHAT SHE LEFT YOU."
00:17:09.050 --> 00:17:10.060
OPENED UP ONE HAND, AND IT
00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:13.160
WAS A PACKAGE OF GUMMY BEARS,
00:17:13.160 --> 00:17:14.140
WHICH WAS A BIG DEAL AT THE TIME
00:17:14.140 --> 00:17:15.070
'CAUSE THAT WAS HIS FAVORITE
00:17:15.070 --> 00:17:16.110
SNACK.
00:17:16.110 --> 00:17:16.240
HE OPENED UP THE OTHER HAND, AND
00:17:16.240 --> 00:17:18.070
IT WAS $5.
00:17:18.070 --> 00:17:20.270
[LAUGHTER]
00:17:25.290 --> 00:17:28.290
I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED WHEN
00:17:28.290 --> 00:17:31.070
Y'ALL WERE GROWIN' UP BUT--
00:17:31.070 --> 00:17:31.270
[LAUGHTER]
00:17:31.270 --> 00:17:32.180
-- I GREW UP IN THE DAYS OF
00:17:32.180 --> 00:17:34.080
DIMES AND NICKELS.
00:17:34.080 --> 00:17:36.100
[LAUGHTER]
00:17:36.100 --> 00:17:37.280
CAN THE CHURCH SAY, "AMEN"?
00:17:37.280 --> 00:17:38.290
ANYBODY?
00:17:38.290 --> 00:17:39.120
- AUDIENCE: AMEN.
00:17:39.120 --> 00:17:40.090
[APPLAUSE]
00:17:40.180 --> 00:17:43.180
- PRISCILLA: SO, YOU KNOW, I'M
00:17:43.180 --> 00:17:44.170
TRYIN' TO BE EXCITED FOR THE
00:17:44.170 --> 00:17:45.250

00:17:45.250 --> 00:17:46.230
[LAUGHTER]
00:17:46.230 --> 00:17:48.000
-- BUT, REALLY, I'M ANNOYED
00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:49.120
ABOUT THIS WHOLE $5 SITUATION,
00:17:49.120 --> 00:17:51.050
AND MY HUSBAND CAN SEE THAT I AM
00:17:52.120 --> 00:17:55.120
TROUBLED.
00:17:55.120 --> 00:17:56.160
AND, YOU KNOW, IF MAMA AIN'T
00:17:56.160 --> 00:17:57.060
HAPPY--
00:17:57.060 --> 00:17:59.130
[LAUGHTER]
00:17:59.130 --> 00:18:01.020
-- NOBODY'S HAPPY.
00:18:01.020 --> 00:18:03.190
AFTER JACKSON LEFT THE ROOM,
00:18:03.190 --> 00:18:04.210
JERRY CAME OVER TO ME, AND HE
00:18:04.210 --> 00:18:05.230
SAID, "PRISCILLA, DON'T WORRY."
00:18:05.230 --> 00:18:07.250
HE SAID, "DO YOU REMEMBER THAT
00:18:07.250 --> 00:18:08.250
LAST MONTH WAS JACKSON'S FIFTH
00:18:08.250 --> 00:18:10.060
BIRTHDAY?"
00:18:10.060 --> 00:18:11.180
HE SAID, "DO YOU REMEMBER THAT
00:18:11.180 --> 00:18:12.270
WE HAD ALL OF THE FAMILY OVER?"
00:18:12.270 --> 00:18:14.210
STILL TO THIS DAY, WE DO THAT.
00:18:14.210 --> 00:18:15.240
WHEN ONE OF THE BOYS HAS A
00:18:15.240 --> 00:18:16.210
BIRTHDAY, WE INVITE THE WHOLE
00:18:16.210 --> 00:18:18.050
CLAN OVER: GRANDPARENTS AND
00:18:18.050 --> 00:18:19.250
COUSINS AND AUNTS AND UNCLES.
00:18:19.250 --> 00:18:21.060
EVERYBODY COMES TO CELEBRATE.
00:18:21.060 --> 00:18:21.270
HE SAID, "DO YOU REMEMBER THEY
00:18:21.270 --> 00:18:22.180
ALL CAME?"
00:18:22.180 --> 00:18:23.020
MOST OF 'EM HAD CARDS, AND IN
00:18:23.020 --> 00:18:24.100
THOSE CARDS WERE $5 BILLS.
00:18:24.100 --> 00:18:25.230
HE SAID, "DO YOU REMEMBER WE
00:18:25.230 --> 00:18:27.020
TOOK ALL THOSE $5 BILLS, AND WE
00:18:27.020 --> 00:18:28.190
PUT THEM IN A BIRTHDAY DRAWER IN
00:18:28.190 --> 00:18:30.000
THE KITCHEN?"
00:18:30.000 --> 00:18:31.290
HE SAID, "THIS MORNING, AT 3
00:18:31.290 --> 00:18:32.200
A.M., I WENT RIGHT INSIDE THAT
00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:33.190
BIRTHDAY DRAWER."

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
00:18:39.080 --> 00:18:42.080
DAVE RAMSEY WOULD BE SO PROUD OF
00:18:42.080 --> 00:18:44.240
US.
00:18:44.240 --> 00:18:46.270
[LAUGHTER]
00:18:46.270 --> 00:18:48.210
THAT'S GOOD FINANCIAL
00:18:48.210 --> 00:18:49.210
STEWARDSHIP, RIGHT THERE, IS
00:18:49.210 --> 00:18:50.230
WHAT THAT IS.
00:18:50.230 --> 00:18:51.120
[LAUGHTER]
00:18:51.210 --> 00:18:54.210
SO THAT MORNING, REALLY, WHAT I
00:18:55.170 --> 00:18:58.170
HAD WITNESSED WAS MY LITTLE BOY
00:18:58.170 --> 00:19:01.090
GETTIN' EXCITED ABOUT TREASURE
00:19:01.090 --> 00:19:03.080
THAT ACTUALLY ALREADY BELONGED
00:19:03.080 --> 00:19:05.010

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
00:19:06.000 --> 00:19:08.040
-- TREASURE THAT HE ALREADY HAD.

HE JUST DIDN'T KNOW IT.
00:19:10.270 --> 00:19:12.100
I CAME TO TELL SOMEBODY THAT
00:19:12.180 --> 00:19:15.180
THERE IS TREASURE--

GOD'S SPIRIT, THERE IS GIFT, AND

YOU NEED TO KNOW THAT, EVEN IF
00:19:32.250 --> 00:19:34.070
YOU DO NOT BELIEVE WHAT THE

SCRIPTURES DECLARE TO BE TRUE
00:19:35.290 --> 00:19:37.110
ABOUT YOUR TREASURE, IF YOU
00:19:37.110 --> 00:19:38.220
DON'T BELIEVE THAT YOU'VE BEEN
00:19:38.220 --> 00:19:40.020
FORGIVEN OR THAT YOU ALREADY
00:19:40.020 --> 00:19:41.250
HAVE THE VICTORY OR THAT THE

WHAT A SHAME IT WOULD BE FOR HIM
00:20:05.190 --> 00:20:07.090
TO KNOW, AND US NOT TO.
00:20:07.090 --> 00:20:09.110
SO IT'S TIME FOR US TO OPEN UP
00:20:10.090 --> 00:20:13.090
THE DRAWER AND START PULLIN' OUT
00:20:13.090 --> 00:20:15.130

BEEN IGNORING, THE TREASURE
00:20:16.270 --> 00:20:18.070
WE'VE BEEN CALLING
00:20:18.070 --> 00:20:20.250
INSIGNIFICANT, THE THING THAT
00:20:20.250 --> 00:20:21.230
WE'VE SAID IS NOT ENOUGH, NOT
00:20:21.230 --> 00:20:23.220
VALUABLE: "LORD, IF I COULD JUST
00:20:23.220 --> 00:20:25.130
BE LIKE HER," "LORD, IF I COULD

"IF I WEREN'T ME, THEN, LORD,
00:20:29.090 --> 00:20:30.180
I'D BE ENOUGH."
00:20:30.180 --> 00:20:32.070
HE SAYS, "UH-UH, YOU HAVE
00:20:32.070 --> 00:20:32.260
ENOUGH.
00:20:32.260 --> 00:20:33.170
YOU JUST HAVE TO OPEN UP THE

THAT IS GONNA BE VERY FAMILIAR
00:20:44.070 --> 00:20:44.290
TO YOU.
00:20:44.290 --> 00:20:46.000
IT'S THE ONE THAT THE LORD HAS
00:20:46.000 --> 00:20:47.060
BEEN USING IN MY OWN LIFE TO
00:20:47.060 --> 00:20:48.160
REMIND ME ABOUT HOW HE WILL

00:21:28.230 --> 00:21:29.130
OUT."
00:21:29.130 --> 00:21:32.000
HE CALLED THEM, HE GAVE THEM
00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:32.210
TREASURE, AND THEN HE SENT
00:21:32.210 --> 00:21:34.140
VERSE 10, SAYS, "AND THEN WHEN
00:21:39.050 --> 00:21:40.160
THEY RETURNED TO HIM, THEY GAVE
00:21:40.160 --> 00:21:41.250
AN ACCOUNT TO HIM OF EVERYTHING
00:21:41.250 --> 00:21:43.020
THEY HAD DONE, AND TAKING THEM
00:21:43.020 --> 00:21:44.130
WITH HIM, HE WITHDREW BY HIMSELF
00:21:44.130 --> 00:21:46.200
TO A HILL CALLED BETHSAIDA.
00:21:46.200 --> 00:21:49.180
THE MULTITUDES WERE AWARE OF
00:21:49.180 --> 00:21:51.240
THIS," VERSE 11, SAYS, "SO THEY
00:21:51.240 --> 00:21:53.100
FOLLOWED JESUS," 'CAUSE YOU
00:21:53.100 --> 00:21:54.290
KNOW, WHEREVER JESUS WENT, A
00:21:54.290 --> 00:21:55.290
CROWD WAS SURE TO FOLLOW.
00:21:55.290 --> 00:21:57.100
THEY WEREN'T QUITE SURE HE WAS
00:21:57.100 --> 00:21:59.010
THE MESSIAH, BUT WHAT THEY DID
00:21:59.010 --> 00:22:00.190
KNOW WAS THAT, WHEN THIS MAN
00:22:00.190 --> 00:22:01.240
SHOWED UP, BLIND PEOPLE COULD
00:22:01.240 --> 00:22:02.150
SEE.
00:22:02.150 --> 00:22:03.090
WHAT THEY KNEW WAS THAT, WHEN
00:22:03.090 --> 00:22:05.120
JESUS SHOWED UP, THE LAME COULD
00:22:05.120 --> 00:22:06.250
WALK AND THE DEAF COULD HEAR.
00:22:06.250 --> 00:22:08.000
THE DEAD WERE BEING RAISED, SO
00:22:08.000 --> 00:22:09.220
WHEREVER JESUS WAS, THEY CAME.
00:22:09.220 --> 00:22:10.200
"THE CROWD FOLLOWED AND
00:22:10.200 --> 00:22:13.150
WELCOMING THE MULTITUDE, JESUS
00:22:13.150 --> 00:22:16.010
BEGAN SPEAKING TO THEM ABOUT THE
00:22:16.010 --> 00:22:17.260
KINGDOM OF GOD AND CURING THOSE
00:22:17.260 --> 00:22:19.250
WHO WERE IN NEED OF HEALING."
00:22:19.250 --> 00:22:21.040
VERSE 12, SO THE DAY STARTS TO
00:22:21.040 --> 00:22:23.120
COME TO A CLOSE, AND "THE 12
00:22:23.120 --> 00:22:24.130
COME TO JESUS AND SAY, 'NOW,
00:22:24.130 --> 00:22:26.030
JESUS, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO SEND
00:22:26.030 --> 00:22:27.080
THIS MULTITUDE AWAY.
00:22:27.080 --> 00:22:28.010

00:22:28.010 --> 00:22:29.230
SURROUNDING VILLAGES AND
00:22:29.230 --> 00:22:31.060
COUNTRYSIDE AND FIND LODGING.
00:22:31.060 --> 00:22:32.170
THEY GOTTA GET SOMETHIN' TO EAT,
00:22:32.170 --> 00:22:33.160
JESUS.
00:22:33.160 --> 00:22:34.200
COME ON, NOW, HERE WE'RE IN A
00:22:34.200 --> 00:22:36.130
DESOLATE PLACE.'"
00:22:36.130 --> 00:22:37.190
VERSE 13,
00:22:37.190 --> 00:22:38.180
"JESUS SAID TO THEM,
00:22:38.180 --> 00:22:39.190
'UH-UH, YOU GIVE 'EM SOMETHIN'
00:22:40.120 --> 00:22:43.120
TO EAT.'
00:22:43.120 --> 00:22:44.060
THEY SAID,
00:22:44.120 --> 00:22:47.120
'JESUS, WE HAVE NO MORE
00:22:47.120 --> 00:22:48.120
THAN FIVE LOAVES AND TWO FISH,
00:22:48.120 --> 00:22:51.100
UNLESS PERHAPS YOU LET US GO AND
00:22:51.100 --> 00:22:52.150
BUY FOOD FOR ALL THESE PEOPLE
00:22:52.150 --> 00:22:53.060
'CAUSE, YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT
00:22:53.060 --> 00:22:55.020
ENOUGH AS WE ARE RIGHT NOW.'"
00:22:55.020 --> 00:22:56.020
THERE WERE ABOUT 5.000 MEN.
00:22:56.020 --> 00:22:57.170
SCHOLARS SAY THE REASON WHY LUKE
00:22:57.170 --> 00:23:00.140
SPECIFIES "MEN" IS BECAUSE THERE
00:23:00.140 --> 00:23:02.010
WERE WOMEN AND CHILDREN TOO, SO
00:23:02.020 --> 00:23:05.020
THERE WERE PROBABLY ABOUT
00:23:05.020 --> 00:23:06.180
15.000 HUNGRY PEOPLE THAT DAY.
00:23:06.180 --> 00:23:09.130
"JESUS SAID, 'HAVE THEM RECLINE
00:23:09.130 --> 00:23:10.140
TO EAT IN GROUPS OF ABOUT 50
00:23:10.140 --> 00:23:11.200
EACH.'
00:23:11.200 --> 00:23:13.010
SO THEY DID SO, HAD THEM
00:23:13.010 --> 00:23:13.240
ALL RECLINE, AND THEN HE TOOK
00:23:13.240 --> 00:23:15.110
THE FIVE LOAVES AND THE TWO FISH
00:23:15.220 --> 00:23:18.220
AND LOOKING UP TO HEAVEN, HE
00:23:18.220 --> 00:23:21.050
BLESSED THEM, AND THEN HE BROKE
00:23:21.050 --> 00:23:23.240
THEM, AND HE KEPT GIVING THEM TO
00:23:23.240 --> 00:23:26.000
THE DISCIPLES TO SET BEFORE THE
00:23:26.000 --> 00:23:27.160
MULTITUDE," AND VERSE 17, SAYS,
00:23:27.160 --> 00:23:28.270
"THEY ALL ATE.
00:23:28.270 --> 00:23:31.170
THEY WERE ALL SATISFIED," AND
00:23:31.170 --> 00:23:33.220
JUST SO YOU KNOW HOW SATISFIED
00:23:33.220 --> 00:23:35.020
THEY WERE, "THEY WENT BY AND
00:23:35.020 --> 00:23:36.210
PICKED UP ALL THE LEFTOVERS"
00:23:36.210 --> 00:23:39.200
IN THIS STORY, WE MEET A HUNGRY
00:23:44.060 --> 00:23:45.160
MULTITUDE, A MULTITUDE THAT IS
00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:47.140
PLACING A DEMAND.
00:23:47.140 --> 00:23:50.010
THEY HAVE A NEED.
00:23:50.010 --> 00:23:51.050
THERE IS A LACK THAT NEEDS TO BE
00:23:51.050 --> 00:23:52.120
FILLED, AND MOST OF THE TIME
00:23:52.120 --> 00:23:54.040
WHEN THIS PORTION OF THE
00:23:54.040 --> 00:23:55.210
SCRIPTURE IS LOOKED INTO, THE
00:23:55.210 --> 00:23:57.190
MULTITUDE IS WHO WE CONCENTRATE
00:23:57.190 --> 00:23:59.060
ON, THE FIVE LOAVES AND THE TWO
00:23:59.060 --> 00:24:00.120
FISH, AND HOW THEY WERE
00:24:00.120 --> 00:24:01.170
SATISFIED WITH IT, BUT JUST FOR
00:24:01.170 --> 00:24:02.220
A FEW MOMENTS, TONIGHT I WANNA
00:24:02.220 --> 00:24:04.080
TALK TO YOU ABOUT THE 12
00:24:04.090 --> 00:24:07.090
DISCIPLES, THOSE WHO WALKED WITH
00:24:07.090 --> 00:24:09.110
JESUS AND TALKED WITH JESUS,
00:24:09.110 --> 00:24:10.240
THOSE WHO WERE IN CLOSE
00:24:10.240 --> 00:24:12.100
COMMUNION WITH JESUS, THOSE WHO
00:24:12.100 --> 00:24:13.210
WOULD COME OUT ON A FRIDAY NIGHT
00:24:13.210 --> 00:24:15.180
TO BE IN THE PRESENCE OF JESUS,
00:24:15.180 --> 00:24:17.050
AMONGST THE PEOPLE OF JESUS.
00:24:17.050 --> 00:24:18.160
I WANNA TALK TO THE DISCIPLES OF
00:24:18.160 --> 00:24:19.250
JESUS.
00:24:19.250 --> 00:24:21.090
[APPLAUSE]
00:24:21.090 --> 00:24:23.030
THE DISCIPLES ON THIS OCCASION
00:24:23.030 --> 00:24:23.290
HAD BEEN CALLED TO JESUS BY
00:24:23.290 --> 00:24:24.250
JESUS.
00:24:24.250 --> 00:24:26.210
THEY WERE HAVIN' A CONVERSATION
00:24:26.210 --> 00:24:28.150
WITH EACH OTHER.
00:24:28.150 --> 00:24:29.040
JESUS ENTRUSTED THEM WITH POWER
00:24:29.040 --> 00:24:31.040
AND AUTHORITY, AND THEN HE SENT
00:24:31.040 --> 00:24:32.130
THEM OUT.
00:24:32.130 --> 00:24:33.190
I LOVE THAT THIS GOSPEL IS ONE
00:24:33.190 --> 00:24:35.000
OF THE SYNOPTIC GOSPELS.
00:24:35.000 --> 00:24:37.080
THE SYNOPTIC GOSPELS ARE THOSE
00:24:37.080 --> 00:24:38.280
THAT TELL-- THERE ARE THREE OF
00:24:38.280 --> 00:24:40.260
THEM: MATTHEW, MARK, AND LUKE.
00:24:40.260 --> 00:24:42.100
THESE THREE TELL SOME OF THE
00:24:42.100 --> 00:24:43.280
SIMILAR STORIES, IN A SIMILAR
00:24:43.280 --> 00:24:45.090
TONE, IN A SIMILAR WAY SO THAT
00:24:45.090 --> 00:24:46.290
WE'RE ABLE TO GET MORE LAYERS TO
00:24:46.290 --> 00:24:47.270
THE STORY.
00:24:47.270 --> 00:24:49.000
I LOVE THE GOSPELS IN THAT WAY.
00:24:49.000 --> 00:24:51.000
THEY GIVE US LAYERS, JUST LIKE
00:24:51.000 --> 00:24:52.210
IF SOMEONE WERE TO OFFER YOU A
00:24:52.210 --> 00:24:54.210
CHOCOLATE CAKE, BUT THEY GAVE
00:24:54.210 --> 00:24:56.100
YOU OPTIONS.
00:24:56.100 --> 00:24:57.200
YOU COULD HAVE A ONE-LAYER
00:24:57.200 --> 00:24:58.290
CHOCOLATE CAKE OR A SEVEN-LAYER
00:24:58.290 --> 00:25:00.160
CHOCOLATE CAKE.
00:25:00.160 --> 00:25:01.020
WHICH ONE YOU GONNA CHOOSE?
00:25:01.020 --> 00:25:02.140
SEVEN, EVERY SINGLE TIME,
00:25:02.140 --> 00:25:04.280
BECAUSE THE MORE LAYERS THERE
00:25:04.280 --> 00:25:07.250
ARE, THE MORE RICH AND
00:25:07.250 --> 00:25:09.180
DELECTABLE THE EXPERIENCE
00:25:09.180 --> 00:25:10.230
BECOMES.
00:25:10.230 --> 00:25:12.140
MARK CHAPTER 6, IS A LAYER OF
00:25:12.140 --> 00:25:13.280
CHOCOLATE CAKE FOR US.
00:25:13.280 --> 00:25:14.270
IT TELLS US THAT THIS IS THE
00:25:14.270 --> 00:25:17.000
EXPERIENCE WHEN JESUS CALLED THE
00:25:17.000 --> 00:25:18.060
DISCIPLES TO HIMSELF AND THEN HE
00:25:18.060 --> 00:25:20.240
SENT THEM OUT IN PAIRS.
00:25:20.240 --> 00:25:22.040
DO YOU REMEMBER?
00:25:22.040 --> 00:25:23.090
TWO BY TWO INTO THE NEIGHBORING
00:25:23.090 --> 00:25:24.230
TOWNS AND COMMUNITIES.
00:25:24.230 --> 00:25:26.060
THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO TEACH AND
00:25:26.060 --> 00:25:27.200
PREACH AND PERFORM MIRACLES THAT
00:25:27.200 --> 00:25:28.200
WOULD AUTHENTICATE THE DEITY OF
00:25:28.200 --> 00:25:29.120
JESUS CHRIST.
00:25:29.120 --> 00:25:31.190
MARK CHAPTER 6, OUR LAYER OF
00:25:31.190 --> 00:25:32.100
CHOCOLATE CAKE, TELLS US THAT
00:25:32.100 --> 00:25:33.230
THEY EXPENDED THEMSELVES.
00:25:34.100 --> 00:25:37.100
Y'ALL, THEY WERE BUSY FROM SUNUP
00:25:37.100 --> 00:25:38.190
TO SUNDOWN.
00:25:38.190 --> 00:25:40.040
THEY WERE ABOUT THE TASK OF
00:25:40.040 --> 00:25:41.260
DOING WHAT IT WAS THAT JESUS HAD
00:25:41.260 --> 00:25:43.140
ASSIGNED TO THEM.
00:25:43.140 --> 00:25:44.140
THEY WANTED TO BE DILIGENT ABOUT
00:25:44.140 --> 00:25:45.260
IT, SO MUCH SO, THAT, WHEN THEY
00:25:45.260 --> 00:25:47.130
CAME BACK TO JESUS, THEY GAVE AN
00:25:47.130 --> 00:25:49.040
ACCOUNT TO HIM, AND JESUS
00:25:49.040 --> 00:25:50.140
RECOGNIZED THEIR EXHAUSTION.
00:25:50.190 --> 00:25:53.190
HE SAW THAT THEY WERE TIRED.
00:25:53.190 --> 00:25:55.150
IN FACT, JESUS HIMSELF COMMENTED
00:25:55.150 --> 00:25:57.100
THAT THEY DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TIME
00:25:57.100 --> 00:25:58.170

THEY WERE DEPLETED, AND THEY
00:26:01.290 --> 00:26:03.020
WERE TIRED, AND THEY CAME BACK
00:26:03.020 --> 00:26:04.110
TO JESUS, AND THEY GAVE HIM AN
00:26:04.110 --> 00:26:06.000
ACCOUNT FOR HOW THEY'D HANDLED
00:26:06.000 --> 00:26:08.130

00:27:30.000 --> 00:27:33.000
THING: YOU DON'T KNOW WHEN THAT
00:27:33.000 --> 00:27:35.030
DAY IS.
00:27:40.000 --> 00:27:43.000
- VICTORIA: THIS EVENT IS
00:27:43.000 --> 00:27:43.240
CALLED "LOVE YOUR LIFE," AND,
00:27:43.240 --> 00:27:44.280
YOU KNOW, I BELIEVE GOD WANTS US
00:27:44.280 --> 00:27:46.230
TO LOVE OUR LIFE.
00:27:46.230 --> 00:27:47.290
YOU KNOW, HE SAID THAT WE'RE TO
00:27:47.290 --> 00:27:49.260
THAT'S THE FIRST COMMAND, AND
00:27:53.020 --> 00:27:53.230
THEN HE SAID, "LOVE YOUR
00:27:53.230 --> 00:27:54.250
NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF."
00:27:54.250 --> 00:27:57.120
AND I BELIEVE IF WE CAN'T
00:27:57.120 --> 00:27:58.080
LOVE OUR LIFE AND LOVE WHAT
00:27:58.080 --> 00:27:59.140
GOD'S GIVEN US,
00:27:59.140 --> 00:28:00.050
HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO LOVE
00:28:00.050 --> 00:28:01.180
OTHER PEOPLE?
00:28:01.180 --> 00:28:03.120
YOU KNOW, BECAUSE, USUALLY, YOU
00:28:03.120 --> 00:28:04.100
PROJECT ON THE INSIDE OF YOU
00:28:04.100 --> 00:28:06.210
WHAT'S ON THE INSIDE OF YOU
00:28:08.060 --> 00:28:08.260
ONTO OTHERS, AND SO I LOVE
00:28:08.260 --> 00:28:09.210
THE FACT THIS IS
00:28:09.210 --> 00:28:10.200
"LOVE YOUR LIFE," BECAUSE I
00:28:10.200 --> 00:28:11.170
BELIEVE EVERY WOMAN OUT THERE,
00:28:11.170 --> 00:28:13.130
EVERY VIEWER THAT'S LISTENING,
00:28:13.130 --> 00:28:14.170
YOU NEED TO SAY, "GOD, YOU'VE
00:28:14.170 --> 00:28:16.030
GIVEN ME THIS LIFE.
00:28:16.030 --> 00:28:18.270
I'M GONNA EMBRACE WHERE I AM
00:28:18.270 --> 00:28:19.170
RIGHT NOW,
00:28:19.170 --> 00:28:21.020
WHETHER IT'S A GOOD SEASON
00:28:21.020 --> 00:28:21.210
OR A LITTLE MORE OF A DIFFICULT
00:28:21.210 --> 00:28:22.240
SEASON, BUT I'M GONNA EMBRACE
00:28:23.180 --> 00:28:26.180
WHAT I'VE GOT RIGHT NOW.
00:28:26.180 --> 00:28:27.060
I'M GONNA LOOK AT WHAT I HAVE,
00:28:27.060 --> 00:28:27.280
NOT WHAT I DON'T HAVE, AND BEGIN
00:28:27.280 --> 00:28:28.280
TO JUST ENJOY WHAT YOU'VE GIVEN
00:28:28.280 --> 00:28:30.040
ME," BECAUSE, EVEN IN THE MOST
00:28:30.040 --> 00:28:32.020
CHALLENGING TIMES, GOD DOESN'T
00:28:32.020 --> 00:28:33.220
WASTE ANYTHING, DOES HE?
00:28:34.000 --> 00:28:37.000
- TERRI: THAT'S RIGHT.
00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:37.180
- VICTORIA: WHAT DO YOU THINK?
00:28:37.180 --> 00:28:38.270
I MEAN, YOU LOVE YOUR LIFE.
00:28:38.270 --> 00:28:40.000
I KNOW YOU LOVE YOUR LIFE.
00:28:40.000 --> 00:28:40.250
YOU LOVE YOUR KIDS, YOU LOVE
00:28:40.250 --> 00:28:41.200
YOUR HUSBAND, YOU LOVE ALL THAT
00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:42.230
STUFF.
00:28:42.230 --> 00:28:43.060
- PRISCILLA: I DO, AND I THINK
00:28:43.060 --> 00:28:43.290
THAT IT'S IMPORTANT THAT, YOU
00:28:43.290 --> 00:28:46.130
KNOW, PEOPLE THAT HEAR SOMEONE
00:28:46.130 --> 00:28:47.220
LIKE US SAY THIS, THAT THEY
00:28:47.220 --> 00:28:49.010
RECOGNIZE THAT-- I JUST THINK WE
00:28:49.010 --> 00:28:50.250
HAVE A PICTURE OF PEOPLE FROM
00:28:50.250 --> 00:28:51.230
AFAR, THAT THEY DON'T HAVE
00:28:51.230 --> 00:28:52.230
TROUBLE.
00:28:52.230 --> 00:28:54.150
IT LOOKS LIKE EVERYTHING IS SO
00:28:54.150 --> 00:28:55.160
AND I JUST THINK IT'S IMPORTANT
00:28:57.290 --> 00:28:58.210
THAT WE CONVEY THAT, MAN, WE'VE
00:28:58.210 --> 00:29:00.120
GOT STRUGGLES.
00:29:00.120 --> 00:29:01.290
THERE ARE DIFFICULTIES AND HARD
00:29:01.290 --> 00:29:03.110
THINGS THAT WE'RE FACING, THAT
00:29:03.110 --> 00:29:05.280
WE'VE HAVING TO DEAL WITH.
00:29:05.280 --> 00:29:07.170
MY-- SHE WAS LITERALLY MY BEST
00:29:07.170 --> 00:29:09.160
FRIEND, COUSIN, BUT SHE'S MY
00:29:09.160 --> 00:29:11.280
COUSIN, BUT MY BEST FRIEND, SHE
00:29:11.280 --> 00:29:13.080
JUST DIED A FEW WEEKS AGO, AND I
00:29:13.080 --> 00:29:15.270
MEAN LIKE "THAT."
00:29:15.270 --> 00:29:17.150
AND AT 6:15, HER HEART HAD AN
00:29:19.190 --> 00:29:20.100
ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION AND JUST
00:29:20.100 --> 00:29:21.100
STOPPED.
00:29:21.100 --> 00:29:23.290
SHE LEFT FOUR LITTLE GIRLS, AND
00:29:23.290 --> 00:29:25.110
SO IN THE MIDDLE OF THAT SHOCK
00:29:25.110 --> 00:29:26.230
AND THAT GRIEVING, THE BEAUTY OF
00:29:26.230 --> 00:29:28.170
THE GRACE OF GOD AND THE HOPE OF
00:29:28.170 --> 00:29:30.220
GOD IS THAT, EVEN WHEN THINGS
00:29:30.220 --> 00:29:33.150
ARE DIFFICULT, THERE'S A PEACE
00:29:33.150 --> 00:29:35.110
THAT PASSES ALL UNDERSTANDING.
00:29:35.110 --> 00:29:36.250
IT DOESN'T MEAN YOU DON'T HAVE
00:29:36.250 --> 00:29:38.090
DIFFICULTY TO LOVE YOUR LIFE.
00:29:38.090 --> 00:29:39.200
IT MEANS THAT, DESPITE THE
00:29:39.200 --> 00:29:40.250
DIFFICULTY-- 'CAUSE WE'RE GONNA
00:29:40.250 --> 00:29:42.160
HAVE IT-- THIS IS LIFE.
00:29:42.160 --> 00:29:43.160
I MEAN, WE'RE LIVIN' IN THE
00:29:43.160 --> 00:29:44.160
WORLD.
00:29:44.160 --> 00:29:45.010
THERE'S SIN AND EVIL AND DEATH,
00:29:45.010 --> 00:29:46.200
AND THOSE SORTS OF THINGS THAT,
00:29:46.200 --> 00:29:48.250
YOU KNOW, ARE STRUGGLES FOR ALL
00:29:48.250 --> 00:29:50.060
OF US, BUT I'M SO GRATEFUL THAT,
00:29:50.060 --> 00:29:51.210
WITH JESUS, THINGS THAT WOULD
00:29:52.040 --> 00:29:55.040
DEVASTATE OTHER PEOPLE TO THE
00:29:55.040 --> 00:29:56.180
POINT THAT THEY COULD NOT
00:29:56.180 --> 00:29:57.290
FUNCTION, THE DIFFERENCE FOR
00:29:57.290 --> 00:29:59.130
THOSE OF US THAT HAVE A
00:29:59.130 --> 00:30:00.150
RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS IS THAT
00:30:00.150 --> 00:30:01.160
WE COULD STILL LOVE OUR LIFE.
00:30:01.160 --> 00:30:03.050
WE CAN STILL HAVE HOPE THAT THIS
00:30:03.050 --> 00:30:04.270
IS NOT OUR HOME, THAT WE'RE ON
00:30:05.030 --> 00:30:08.030
OUR WAY SOMEWHERE, AND VICTORY
00:30:08.030 --> 00:30:08.260
IS IN JESUS' NAME.
00:30:08.260 --> 00:30:11.100
SO I JUST LOVE THAT THIS
00:30:11.100 --> 00:30:12.130
CONFERENCE IS CALLED "LOVE YOUR
00:30:12.130 --> 00:30:13.230
LIFE," AND THAT IT'S FROM A
00:30:13.230 --> 00:30:15.010
WOMAN WHO HASN'T, YOU KNOW, SAT
00:30:15.080 --> 00:30:18.080
IN THIS LITTLE PRECIPICE,
00:30:18.080 --> 00:30:19.110
DETACHED FROM REALITY.
00:30:20.160 --> 00:30:23.160
YOU'RE A WOMAN WHO HAS CHILDREN,
00:30:23.160 --> 00:30:25.090
AND YOU'VE GOT A HUSBAND, AND
00:30:25.090 --> 00:30:26.130
YOU'VE GOT A LOT TO BALANCE, AND
00:30:26.130 --> 00:30:27.280
SO YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS TO
00:30:27.280 --> 00:30:29.020
STRUGGLE AND TO WRESTLE, AND
00:30:29.020 --> 00:30:30.130
DESPITE THAT, FOR THEM TO SEE
00:30:30.130 --> 00:30:32.180
YOU STILL LOVIN' YOUR LIFE, AND
00:30:32.180 --> 00:30:34.050
YOU LOVIN' YOURS, AND ME LOVIN'
00:30:34.050 --> 00:30:35.260
OURS, IT'S NOT BECAUSE WE'VE
00:30:35.260 --> 00:30:36.250
BEEN DETACHED FROM TROUBLE.
00:30:36.250 --> 00:30:38.010
IT'S BECAUSE WE'VE MET WITH
00:30:38.010 --> 00:30:39.210
JESUS IN OUR TROUBLES.
00:30:39.210 --> 00:30:40.210
- VICTORIA: I BELIEVE WHEN WE
00:30:40.210 --> 00:30:41.200
LOVE WHAT GOD'S GIVEN US, WE
00:30:41.200 --> 00:30:43.090
HONOR GOD, YOU KNOW?
00:30:43.090 --> 00:30:44.240
AND IT IS, IT'S JUST HONORING
00:30:44.240 --> 00:30:46.000
HIM.
00:30:46.000 --> 00:30:47.160

00:30:52.270 --> 00:30:53.170
HERE, THEY'LL THINK, "OH, THEY
00:30:53.170 --> 00:30:54.090
HADN'T BEEN THROUGH MUCH."
00:30:54.090 --> 00:30:55.050
YOU NEVER KNOW.
00:30:55.050 --> 00:30:55.210
YOU KNOW, I MEAN, I'VE BEEN
00:30:55.210 --> 00:30:56.270

STUFF, SO SAYING THAT WE LOVE
00:31:02.080 --> 00:31:03.180

EVERYTHING IS JUST SO GREAT, YOU

CHOSEN TO MAKE THE BEST OF OUR

SITUATIONS, TO TRUST GOD.
00:31:16.230 --> 00:31:19.040
I WOULD SAY, LOVIN' YOUR LIFE
00:31:19.040 --> 00:31:22.030
IS, LOVE GOD, DREAM BIG, EAT

00:33:25.110 --> 00:33:28.110
SO THE DISCIPLES, THEY COME AND
00:33:29.200 --> 00:33:32.200
THEY GIVE AN ACCOUNT TO JESUS.
00:33:32.200 --> 00:33:34.010
I WONDERED IF THERE WAS A RECIPE
00:33:34.010 --> 00:33:36.060
FOR EFFECTIVE MINISTRY 'CAUSE,
00:33:36.060 --> 00:33:37.190
IF THESE GUYS WERE WILLING TO
00:33:37.190 --> 00:33:39.030
COME AND LOOK JESUS IN HIS FACE
00:33:39.030 --> 00:33:40.240
AND GIVE AN ACCOUNT, I FIGURED
00:33:40.240 --> 00:33:42.020
THERE MIGHT BE A RECIPE FOR US
00:33:42.020 --> 00:33:43.210
FOR EFFECTIVE MINISTRY.
00:33:43.210 --> 00:33:44.260
I'M INTERESTED.
00:33:44.260 --> 00:33:46.010
ANYBODY INTERESTED?
00:33:46.010 --> 00:33:46.240
THERE ARE THREE INGREDIENTS TO
00:33:46.240 --> 00:33:49.140
THE RECIPE.
00:33:49.140 --> 00:33:50.120
LUKE CHAPTER 9, VERSE 1, IT
00:33:50.120 --> 00:33:53.080
SAYS, "HE CALLED THEM."
00:33:53.080 --> 00:33:55.080
HE CALLED THEM.
00:33:55.080 --> 00:33:57.190
AND HIS CALLING SUPERSEDED ANY
00:33:57.190 --> 00:33:59.210
PERSONAL AMBITION THAT THEY HAD.
00:33:59.210 --> 00:34:02.070
THEY LAID DOWN WHATEVER THEY
00:34:02.070 --> 00:34:04.260
WERE GOING TO DO BECAUSE THEY
00:34:04.260 --> 00:34:06.200
HEARD THE CALL OF GOD BECKONING
00:34:06.200 --> 00:34:08.230
THEM TO DO SOMETHING ELSE.
00:34:08.230 --> 00:34:10.010
THE BEAUTIFUL THING ABOUT THAT
00:34:10.010 --> 00:34:12.050
ENTIRE PICTURE IS THAT ALL OF
00:34:12.050 --> 00:34:13.140
THE GLORY OF GOD THE FATHER, ALL
00:34:13.140 --> 00:34:15.250
OF THE GLORY OF HEAVEN WAS
00:34:15.250 --> 00:34:18.070
PACKAGED IN HUMAN FLESH.
00:34:18.070 --> 00:34:20.100
JESUS WANTED SO MUCH.
00:34:20.100 --> 00:34:21.290
GOD THE FATHER WANTED SO MUCH TO
00:34:21.290 --> 00:34:23.190
MAKE SURE THAT HE COULD SPEAK
00:34:23.190 --> 00:34:25.170
AND SO THAT HUMANITY COULD HEAR
00:34:25.170 --> 00:34:27.120
THAT HE LEFT HIS THRONE IN
00:34:27.120 --> 00:34:29.230
GLORY, PUT ON FLESH SO THAT THE
00:34:29.230 --> 00:34:32.120
DISCIPLES COULD HEAR HIS CALL,
00:34:32.120 --> 00:34:34.000
AND IN THE SAME WAY, HE HAS
00:34:34.000 --> 00:34:35.210
GIVEN US THE HOLY SPIRIT SO THAT
00:34:35.210 --> 00:34:37.250
EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US HAVE
00:34:37.250 --> 00:34:39.260
THE PRIVILEGE TO HEAR THE
00:34:39.260 --> 00:34:41.090
CALLING OF GOD ON OUR LIVES, THE
00:34:41.090 --> 00:34:43.280
CONVICTION, THE UNCTION, THE
00:34:43.280 --> 00:34:46.270
PRESSING, THE FIRE THAT IS SHUT
00:34:46.270 --> 00:34:48.210
UP IN YOUR BONES, SENDING YOU IN
00:34:48.210 --> 00:34:50.070
A PARTICULAR DIRECTION.
00:34:50.070 --> 00:34:52.010
HEED THE CALL OF GOD ON YOUR
00:34:52.010 --> 00:34:53.240
LIVES.
00:34:53.240 --> 00:34:54.270
THEN THEY WERE NOT JUST CALLED.
00:34:54.270 --> 00:34:56.150
I LOVE SO MUCH THAT BEFORE HE
00:34:56.150 --> 00:34:58.010
SKIPS TO THE THIRD INGREDIENT IN
00:34:58.010 --> 00:34:59.240
THE RECIPE, SENDING THEM, I LOVE
00:34:59.240 --> 00:35:01.020
THAT BEFORE WE GET TO THE THIRD
00:35:01.020 --> 00:35:02.270
ONE, THERE'S THAT SECOND ONE.
00:35:03.160 --> 00:35:06.160
HE DID NOT JUST CALL, BUT THEN
00:35:06.160 --> 00:35:07.070
HE GAVE THEM POWER AND
00:35:07.070 --> 00:35:07.270
AUTHORITY.
00:35:07.270 --> 00:35:08.140
IT MEANS THAT WHAT HE WAS
00:35:08.140 --> 00:35:09.270
CALLING THEM TO DO, HE WAS
00:35:09.270 --> 00:35:11.110
SIMULTANEOUSLY EQUIPPING THEM
00:35:11.110 --> 00:35:13.100
WITH SUPERNATURAL POWER TO BE
00:35:13.100 --> 00:35:15.110
ABLE TO PULL IT OFF.
00:35:15.110 --> 00:35:16.230
SO IT'S GOOD NEWS FOR ANYBODY IN
00:35:16.230 --> 00:35:18.080
THE ROOM THAT YOU FEEL LIKE
00:35:18.080 --> 00:35:19.190
YOU'VE GOT A DREAM THAT IS WAY
00:35:19.190 --> 00:35:21.040
OVER YOUR HEAD, YOU'VE BEEN
00:35:21.040 --> 00:35:22.260
CALLED TO DO SOMETHING YOU DON'T
00:35:22.260 --> 00:35:25.050
HAVE THE MONEY FOR, YOU DON'T
00:35:25.050 --> 00:35:26.070
HAVE THE TIME FOR, YOU DON'T
00:35:26.070 --> 00:35:27.170
HAVE THE PATIENCE FOR, YOU DON'T
00:35:27.170 --> 00:35:28.250
HAVE THE GIFTING FOR, YOU DON'T
00:35:28.250 --> 00:35:30.140
HAVE THE TALENT FOR, YOU DON'T
00:35:30.140 --> 00:35:31.180
HAVE THE CONNECTIONS FOR, THE
00:35:31.180 --> 00:35:33.030
GOOD THING AND THE GREAT THING
00:35:33.030 --> 00:35:34.190
ABOUT OUR GOD IS THAT HE DOES
00:35:34.190 --> 00:35:36.020
NOT CALL PEOPLE WHO ARE ALREADY
00:35:36.020 --> 00:35:37.190
EQUIPPED.
00:35:37.190 --> 00:35:38.290
HE CALLS YOU.
00:35:38.290 --> 00:35:40.100
AND THEN FOR THE PEOPLE THAT
00:35:40.100 --> 00:35:41.160
SAY, "YES," HE EQUIPS THEM WITH
00:35:41.160 --> 00:35:43.230
WHAT THEY NEED FOR THE CALLING.
00:35:43.230 --> 00:35:45.090
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
00:35:49.040 --> 00:35:52.040
HE ENTRUSTED THEM WITH POWER AND
00:35:52.040 --> 00:35:53.290
AUTHORITY, AND CAN I TELL YOU
00:35:53.290 --> 00:35:55.000
WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT?
00:35:55.000 --> 00:35:56.050
THIS IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE IN
00:35:56.050 --> 00:35:57.200
ORDER TO ACCOMPLISH SUPERNATURAL
00:35:57.200 --> 00:36:00.190
TASKS, YOU HAVE TO HAVE
00:36:00.190 --> 00:36:02.250
SUPERNATURAL CAPACITY.
00:36:02.250 --> 00:36:04.160
IN OTHER WORDS, YOU CAN BE THE
00:36:04.160 --> 00:36:06.010
MOST TALENTED PERSON IN THE
00:36:06.010 --> 00:36:07.190
WORLD, BUT IF YOU GO IN YOUR OWN
00:36:07.190 --> 00:36:09.290
STRENGTH AND POWER, YOU STILL
00:36:09.290 --> 00:36:11.090
WON'T BE ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH THE
00:36:11.130 --> 00:36:14.130
GOD-CALLING ON YOUR LIFE.
00:36:14.130 --> 00:36:16.000
IT REQUIRES WHAT IT IS THAT ONLY
00:36:16.000 --> 00:36:18.100
GOD HIMSELF CAN GIVE TO YOU TO
00:36:18.100 --> 00:36:20.080
ACCOMPLISH THE TASK.
00:36:20.080 --> 00:36:21.240
OOH, THE ENEMY HOPES YOU WILL GO
00:36:21.240 --> 00:36:24.020
IN YOUR OWN POWER.
00:36:24.020 --> 00:36:25.020
HE HOPES YOU WILL THINK YOU ARE
00:36:25.020 --> 00:36:27.090
FLASHY ENOUGH AND SAVVY ENOUGH
00:36:27.090 --> 00:36:30.000
AND TALENTED ENOUGH AND
00:36:30.000 --> 00:36:31.090
IMPRESSIVE ENOUGH SO THAT YOU
00:36:31.090 --> 00:36:32.250
WILL NO LONGER LEAN ON GOD
00:36:32.250 --> 00:36:34.220
INSTEAD OF LEANING TO YOUR OWN
00:36:34.220 --> 00:36:36.110
UNDERSTANDING.
00:36:36.110 --> 00:36:37.040
"BUT IT IS NOT BY POWER, AND IT
00:36:37.040 --> 00:36:39.290
IS NOT BY MIGHT.
00:36:39.290 --> 00:36:41.170
IT IS BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD."
00:36:41.170 --> 00:36:43.140
AND SOME TRUST IN HORSES; OTHER
00:36:43.140 --> 00:36:45.190
FOLKS TRUST IN CHARIOTS, BUT NOT
00:36:45.190 --> 00:36:47.090
US.
00:36:47.090 --> 00:36:48.070
WE TRUST IN THE NAME OF THE LORD
00:36:48.070 --> 00:36:50.120
OUR GOD.
00:36:50.120 --> 00:36:51.140
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
00:36:53.060 --> 00:36:56.060
SO HE CALLED THEM, AND THEN HE
00:36:56.060 --> 00:36:57.080
ENTRUSTED THEM.
00:36:57.080 --> 00:36:58.120
HE GAVE THEM SOME TREASURE, AND
00:36:58.120 --> 00:37:00.020
THEN HE SENT THEM.
00:37:00.070 --> 00:37:03.070
HE'S THE ONE WHO DID THE
00:37:03.160 --> 00:37:06.160
SENDING.
00:37:06.160 --> 00:37:09.020
RESIST THE URGE TO SEND YOURSELF
00:37:11.160 --> 00:37:14.160
TO DO SOMETHING THAT IT IS NOT
00:37:16.250 --> 00:37:19.250
YET TIME FOR BECAUSE, JUST AS
00:37:19.260 --> 00:37:22.260
IMPORTANT AS OUR CALLING IS,
00:37:22.260 --> 00:37:25.150
THAT IS EQUALLY AS IMPORTANT THE
00:37:25.150 --> 00:37:27.070
TIMING IS IN WHICH THAT CALLING
00:37:27.070 --> 00:37:30.020
IS OUTWORKED IN OUR LIVES, AND
00:37:30.020 --> 00:37:32.100
IF YOU GO TOO SOON, YOU MIGHT--
00:37:32.100 --> 00:37:34.120
IF YOU GIVE BIRTH TOO SOON TO
00:37:34.120 --> 00:37:37.030
THAT WHICH GOD IS TRYING TO
00:37:37.030 --> 00:37:39.040
PRODUCE THROUGH YOU, YOU MIGHT
00:37:39.040 --> 00:37:40.160
ABORT WHAT IT IS THAT HE'S
00:37:40.240 --> 00:37:43.240
TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH IN YOU, THE
00:37:43.240 --> 00:37:45.220
SPIRITUAL BACKBONE, THE
00:37:45.220 --> 00:37:46.290
FORTIFICATION THAT HE WAS TRYING
00:37:46.290 --> 00:37:48.210
TO ESTABLISH IN YOU SO THAT YOU
00:37:48.210 --> 00:37:50.200
COULD HANDLE THE SPOTLIGHT WHEN
00:37:50.200 --> 00:37:52.110
IT HITS YOU BECAUSE, LISTEN,
00:37:52.110 --> 00:37:54.010
THAT SPOTLIGHT THAT YOU MAY BE
00:37:54.010 --> 00:37:55.200
CRAVING, IF IT HITS YOU AND YOU
00:37:55.200 --> 00:37:57.070
HAVE NO CHARACTER, IT WILL BURN
00:37:57.070 --> 00:37:58.000
YOU TO A CRISP.

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
00:38:04.000 --> 00:38:07.000
SO HE CALLED THEM.
00:38:07.000 --> 00:38:08.120
HE ENTRUSTED THEM.
00:38:08.120 --> 00:38:09.190
HE SENT THEM OUT, AND THEY
00:38:09.190 --> 00:38:10.260
RETURNED TO HIM AND GAVE AN
00:38:10.260 --> 00:38:12.120
ACCOUNT.
00:38:12.120 --> 00:38:13.090
THEY WERE TIRED.
00:38:13.090 --> 00:38:15.150
THE DISCIPLES HAD BEEN GIVIN' IT
00:38:15.150 --> 00:38:17.130
EVERYTHING THEY HAD, AND I KNOW
00:38:17.130 --> 00:38:18.280
THERE ARE SOME OF YOU IN THE
00:38:19.050 --> 00:38:22.050
ROOM, AND YOU WOULD ADMIT THAT
00:38:22.050 --> 00:38:23.140
YOU HAVEN'T DONE IT PERFECTLY,
00:38:23.140 --> 00:38:25.180
BUT, MAN, YOU'VE SURE BEEN
00:38:25.180 --> 00:38:26.270
PURPOSEFUL.

ARE TIRED.
00:39:02.190 --> 00:39:04.280
THE GOOD NEWS ABOUT JESUS IS
00:39:04.280 --> 00:39:07.140
THAT, WHEN THE DISCIPLES COME TO
00:39:07.140 --> 00:39:08.280
HIM, TIRED, HE DOES NOT SAY, "GO
00:39:08.280 --> 00:39:10.250

CAN USE YOU."

LISTEN, THE CURE FOR YOUR
00:39:27.280 --> 00:39:29.230

SABBATICAL.

DON'T TAKE THE SABBATICAL FROM

YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD.

REST DAYS.

00:40:09.200 --> 00:40:10.100
REPLENISHED WHEN YOU HAVE
00:40:13.190 --> 00:40:16.190
INTIMACY WITH HIM.
00:40:16.190 --> 00:40:18.190
AND YOU'RE TRYIN' TO FIGURE OUT,
00:40:18.190 --> 00:40:20.150
"LORD, YOU TOLD ME THAT I WAS
00:40:20.150 --> 00:40:21.060
GONNA BE REPLENISHED.
00:40:21.060 --> 00:40:21.230
YOU TOLD ME THAT I WAS GONNA BE
00:40:21.230 --> 00:40:22.190
REFRESHED.
00:40:22.190 --> 00:40:23.000
YOU TOLD ME THAT YOU HAD
00:40:23.000 --> 00:40:23.280
SOMETHING THAT YOU WANTED TO
00:40:23.280 --> 00:40:24.180
WHY WOULD YOU TAKE ME HERE TO
00:40:25.290 --> 00:40:26.200
THIS PLACE WHERE I'M BEING
00:40:26.200 --> 00:40:27.160
PRESSED DOWN BY A MULTITUDE OF
00:40:27.160 --> 00:40:28.250
ISSUES AND CONCERNS AND
00:40:28.250 --> 00:40:30.050
FRUSTRATIONS?
00:40:30.150 --> 00:40:33.150
THERE'S SOMETHING OVERWHELMING
00:40:33.150 --> 00:40:34.180
ME IS BIGGER THAN WHAT I FEEL
00:40:34.180 --> 00:40:35.170
LIKE I HAVE THE CAPACITY TO
00:40:35.170 --> 00:40:38.020
HANDLE.
00:40:38.020 --> 00:40:39.200
WHY WOULD YOU BRING ME HERE?"
00:40:39.200 --> 00:40:40.130
THIS TELLS US THAT THE STORY OF
00:40:40.130 --> 00:40:41.050
THE FEEDING OF THE 5.000 IS NOT
00:40:41.050 --> 00:40:41.290
JUST ABOUT THE 5.000.
00:40:42.050 --> 00:40:45.050
IT'S ALSO ABOUT THE DISCIPLES.
00:40:45.050 --> 00:40:47.120
IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT THE
00:40:47.120 --> 00:40:48.130
IT'S ABOUT THE DISCIPLES BEING
00:40:51.220 --> 00:40:52.200
FED, PHYSICALLY, SPIRITUALLY,
00:40:52.200 --> 00:40:53.110
EMOTIONALLY.
00:40:53.240 --> 00:40:56.240
AND IT TELLS US THAT THE FIVE
00:40:56.240 --> 00:40:58.010
LOAVES AND THE TWO FISH ARE THE
00:40:58.010 --> 00:40:59.230
GIFT TO THE MULTITUDE, BUT IT'S
00:40:59.230 --> 00:41:02.160
THE MULTITUDE THAT'S THE GIFT TO
00:41:02.160 --> 00:41:03.290
THE DISCIPLES--
00:41:04.040 --> 00:41:07.040
[APPLAUSE]
00:41:07.040 --> 00:41:09.140
-- BECAUSE THE MULTITUDE IS
00:41:09.140 --> 00:41:11.120
WHAT'S GOING TO MAKE THEM HAVE
00:41:12.000 --> 00:41:15.000
TO FINALLY OPEN UP THEIR DRAWER,
00:41:15.000 --> 00:41:16.270
PULL OUT THE TREASURE THAT THEY
00:41:16.270 --> 00:41:19.110
WOULD HAVE OTHERWISE IGNORED,
00:41:19.110 --> 00:41:21.240
PLACE IT IN THE HANDS OF A
00:41:21.240 --> 00:41:23.040
MULTIPLYING MASTER, WHOSE GONNA
00:41:23.040 --> 00:41:25.180
SHOW THEM WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE
00:41:25.180 --> 00:41:27.140
WHEN HE TAKES THEIR LITTLE BIT
00:41:27.140 --> 00:41:29.060
AND MAKES IT A LOT.
00:41:29.060 --> 00:41:30.260
THERE IS NO REPLENISHING LIKE
00:41:30.260 --> 00:41:33.260
WATCHING GOD MULTIPLY YOUR
00:41:33.260 --> 00:41:35.200
LOAVES AND FISH.
00:41:35.200 --> 00:41:36.190
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
00:41:36.220 --> 00:41:39.220
I CAME TO TELL SOMEBODY WHO'S
00:41:39.220 --> 00:41:40.290
GOT A MULTITUDE PRESSIN' ON YOU
00:41:40.290 --> 00:41:42.160
IN YOUR MARRIAGE OR IN YOUR
00:41:42.160 --> 00:41:44.200
FINANCES OR IN YOUR HEALTH OR IN
00:41:44.200 --> 00:41:45.290
YOUR PARENTING OR IN YOUR
00:41:45.290 --> 00:41:47.240
SINGLENESS, THAT THING IS
00:41:47.240 --> 00:41:49.100
WEIGHING DOWN ON YOU.
00:41:49.100 --> 00:41:50.230
THAT MEANS THAT THERE IS A
00:41:50.230 --> 00:41:52.000
DRAWER WAITING TO BE OPENED.
00:41:52.000 --> 00:41:53.200
THAT MEANS THERE'S SOME TREASURE
00:41:53.200 --> 00:41:56.020
WAITING TO BE UNVEILED.
00:41:56.020 --> 00:41:58.230
[APPLAUSE]
00:41:58.230 --> 00:42:01.250
AND WHEN YOU TAKE IT OUT,
00:42:01.250 --> 00:42:02.160
FINALLY, WHEN YOU STOP IGNORING
00:42:02.160 --> 00:42:03.240
IT, WHEN YOU STOP CIRCUMVENTING
00:42:03.240 --> 00:42:06.000
IT, WHEN YOU STOP ACTING LIKE
00:42:06.000 --> 00:42:07.120
GOD HASN'T GIVEN YOU EVERYTHING
00:42:07.120 --> 00:42:08.260
YOU NEED, WHEN YOU WILL FINALLY
00:42:08.260 --> 00:42:10.200
RECOGNIZE THIS LITTLE BIT, THIS
00:42:10.200 --> 00:42:12.120
LITTLE GIFTING, THIS LITTLE
00:42:12.120 --> 00:42:13.250
TALENT, THIS LITTLE TIME, THIS
00:42:13.250 --> 00:42:14.290
LITTLE MONEY, THIS LITTLE DREAM,
00:42:14.290 --> 00:42:16.290
THIS LITTLE VISION THAT "THIS IS
00:42:16.290 --> 00:42:18.140
ALL I NEED IF I'LL JUST PULL IT
00:42:18.140 --> 00:42:20.120
OUT AND ENTRUST IT TO THE HANDS
00:42:20.120 --> 00:42:22.240
OF A MULTIPLYING MASTER."
00:42:22.240 --> 00:42:24.110
[APPLAUSE]
00:42:25.130 --> 00:42:28.130
CAN I JUST SHOW YOU REAL QUICK
00:42:28.130 --> 00:42:29.050
WHAT THE DISCIPLES DID?
00:42:29.050 --> 00:42:31.190
JUST REAL QUICK 'CAUSE I THINK
00:42:31.190 --> 00:42:32.130
IT'S INTERESTING BECAUSE IT'S SO
00:42:32.130 --> 00:42:33.060
"US."
00:42:33.060 --> 00:42:35.260
THEY SAID TO JESUS, IN
00:42:35.260 --> 00:42:37.190
VERSE 12, "SEND THE MULTITUDE
00:42:37.190 --> 00:42:39.030
AWAY."
00:42:39.030 --> 00:42:39.220
[LAUGHTER]
00:42:47.080 --> 00:42:50.080
AND HERE'S THE THING THAT'S SO
00:42:50.080 --> 00:42:51.070
"US": SEE, WE DON'T JUST SAY IT.
00:42:51.070 --> 00:42:52.160
WE PRAY IT.
00:42:52.160 --> 00:42:54.270
[LAUGHTER]
00:43:06.080 --> 00:43:09.080
WE PRAY AWAY WHAT WE DON'T EVEN
00:43:09.080 --> 00:43:10.270
RECOGNIZE IS THE GIFT HE HAS
00:43:10.270 --> 00:43:13.100
GIVEN US TO PRESS US INTO
00:43:13.100 --> 00:43:15.240
OPENING UP OUR DRAWER.
00:43:15.240 --> 00:43:17.200
SO IF YOU PRAY FOR YOUR
00:43:17.200 --> 00:43:19.230
MULTITUDE TO BE TAKEN AWAY, AND
00:43:19.230 --> 00:43:21.120
IN GOD'S SOVEREIGNTY, HE HAS
00:43:21.120 --> 00:43:23.080
LEFT IT IN YOUR LIFE, THAT MEANS
00:43:23.080 --> 00:43:25.110
THERE'S A DRAWER.
00:43:25.200 --> 00:43:28.200
THERE'S A DRAWER.
00:43:28.200 --> 00:43:29.200
START LOOKIN' FOR A DRAWER.
00:43:29.200 --> 00:43:30.250
IF THERE'S A MULTITUDE, THAT
00:43:30.250 --> 00:43:32.140
MEANS THERE'S LOAVES AND FISH
00:43:32.140 --> 00:43:33.250
SOMEWHERE IN YOUR LIFE THAT IS
00:43:33.250 --> 00:43:36.150
SUPPOSED TO BE ENTRUSTED INTO
00:43:36.150 --> 00:43:38.000
THE HANDS OF GOD.
00:43:38.000 --> 00:43:39.020
SO WE PRAY AWAY.
00:43:39.020 --> 00:43:40.190
DID YOU REALIZE IN VERSE 12,
00:43:40.190 --> 00:43:42.150
THEY ARE WISHING AWAY WHAT, IN
00:43:42.150 --> 00:43:44.220
VERSE 11, JESUS WELCOMED?
00:43:44.220 --> 00:43:46.240
JESUS WELCOMED WHAT THEY'RE
00:43:46.240 --> 00:43:49.220
WISHING AWAY, SO THE DISCIPLES
00:43:49.220 --> 00:43:51.180
SAY, "GET THIS MULTITUDE AWAY."
00:43:51.180 --> 00:43:54.040
THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW THEY'RE
00:43:55.170 --> 00:43:58.170
PRAYING AWAY THEIR MIRACLE.
00:43:58.170 --> 00:43:59.280
EVERYBODY WANTS TO SEE THE RED
00:43:59.280 --> 00:44:02.150
SEA DIVIDE, BUT NOBODY WANTS TO
00:44:02.150 --> 00:44:03.280
BE THE ONE THAT COMES
00:44:03.280 --> 00:44:05.060
FACE-TO-FACE WITH A RED SEA.
00:44:05.060 --> 00:44:06.230
EVERYBODY WANTS TO SEE THE WALLS
00:44:07.040 --> 00:44:10.040
OF JERICHO COME TUMBLING DOWN,
00:44:10.040 --> 00:44:11.190
BUT NOBODY WANTS TO BE THE ONE
00:44:11.190 --> 00:44:13.030
WHO HAS TO WALK AROUND THOSE
00:44:13.030 --> 00:44:14.090
WALLS IN OBEDIENCE TO GOD TO
00:44:14.090 --> 00:44:16.070
TRUST HIM, TO SHOUT PRIOR TO
00:44:16.070 --> 00:44:18.000
SEEING ONE BRICK FALL.
00:44:18.000 --> 00:44:19.250
IF THERE IS A MULTITUDE, THAT
00:44:21.090 --> 00:44:24.090
MEANS THERE IS A MIRACLE, OKAY.
00:44:24.190 --> 00:44:27.190
SO PRAISE THE MULTITUDE-- OR
00:44:27.190 --> 00:44:29.240
THEY ASK FOR THE MULTITUDE TO GO
00:44:29.240 --> 00:44:31.230
AWAY; AND JESUS, HE DOESN'T GO
00:44:31.230 --> 00:44:34.070
FOR THAT, SO WHEN HE DOESN'T GO
00:44:34.070 --> 00:44:34.290
FOR THAT, THE DISCIPLES HAVE
00:44:34.290 --> 00:44:35.190
ANOTHER SOLUTION.
00:44:35.190 --> 00:44:36.120
THIS IS US TOO.
00:44:36.120 --> 00:44:37.170
"SEND THE MULTITUDE AWAY."
00:44:38.130 --> 00:44:41.130
JESUS SAYS, "MM-MM."
00:44:41.130 --> 00:44:42.060
[LAUGHTER]
00:44:42.060 --> 00:44:44.020
AND THEY SAY, "WELL, SEND US
00:44:44.020 --> 00:44:46.060
AWAY, THEN."
00:44:46.060 --> 00:44:47.200
[LAUGHTER]
00:44:47.200 --> 00:44:50.150
[APPLAUSE]
00:44:50.150 --> 00:44:52.140
YOU SEE IT?
00:44:52.140 --> 00:44:53.270
THEY SAID, "SEND US TO THE
00:44:53.270 --> 00:44:55.130
SURROUNDING TOWNS AND VILLAGES
00:44:55.130 --> 00:44:56.050
SO THAT WE CAN GO AND BUY MORE,
00:44:56.050 --> 00:44:56.280
ACCUMULATE MORE, GET MORE,
00:44:58.200 --> 00:45:01.220
BECAUSE 'AS WE ARE' IS NOT
00:45:01.220 --> 00:45:03.080
SUFFICIENT, SO SEND US SOMEWHERE
00:45:03.080 --> 00:45:05.060
ELSE SO WE CAN GET BETTER AND BE
00:45:05.060 --> 00:45:07.020
BETTER SUITED TO THIS MULTITUDE
00:45:07.020 --> 00:45:09.110
BECAUSE, 'AS WE ARE,' IS NOT
00:45:09.110 --> 00:45:10.270
ENOUGH."
00:45:10.270 --> 00:45:11.250
IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE
00:45:11.250 --> 00:45:13.060
TACTIC OF THE ENEMY TO GET US TO
00:45:13.120 --> 00:45:16.120
THINK THAT WE ARE NOT ENOUGH AS
00:45:16.120 --> 00:45:18.120
WE CURRENTLY ARE, THAT WHAT WE
00:45:18.120 --> 00:45:19.180
CURRENTLY HAVE IS NOT SUFFICIENT
00:45:19.180 --> 00:45:21.200
FOR THE TASK THAT IS BEFORE US,
00:45:21.200 --> 00:45:23.060
BUT IF THE LORD HAS ALLOWED THAT
00:45:23.060 --> 00:45:25.100
MULTITUDE INTO YOUR EXPERIENCE,
00:45:25.100 --> 00:45:26.280
THAT MEANS THAT, AS YOU
00:45:26.280 --> 00:45:28.090
CURRENTLY ARE WITH THE ENTRUSTED
00:45:28.090 --> 00:45:31.040
TREASURE, THE POWER, THE
00:45:31.040 --> 00:45:33.050
AUTHORITY THAT HE HAS GIVEN TO
00:45:33.050 --> 00:45:34.200
YOU, YOU'VE GOT EVERYTHING YOU
00:45:34.200 --> 00:45:36.180
NEED IF YOU JUST PULL OUT WHAT
00:45:36.180 --> 00:45:38.150
HE ALREADY HAS ENTRUSTED TO YOU.
00:45:38.150 --> 00:45:39.280
IN FACT, IN MARK CHAPTER 6, OUR
00:45:40.150 --> 00:45:43.150
LAYER OF CHOCOLATE CAKE, WE FIND
00:45:43.150 --> 00:45:45.090
OUT THAT HE SAYS TO THE
00:45:45.090 --> 00:45:47.020
DISCIPLES, "WELL, WHAT DO YOU
00:45:47.020 --> 00:45:48.010
HAVE?"
00:45:48.010 --> 00:45:49.200
HE ASKED THEM THAT QUESTION.
00:45:49.200 --> 00:45:52.030
HE SAYS, "WHAT DO YOU HAVE?"
00:45:52.030 --> 00:45:54.070
AND THEN HE DOESN'T EVEN GIVE
00:45:54.070 --> 00:45:55.030
'EM A CHANCE TO ANSWER.
00:45:55.030 --> 00:45:56.030
HE JUST IMMEDIATELY RESPONDS AND
00:45:56.030 --> 00:45:57.060
SAYS, "GO AND LOOK."
00:45:57.060 --> 00:45:59.140
[LAUGHTER]
00:45:59.140 --> 00:46:01.270
HE SAID IT LIKE THAT: "GO AND
00:46:01.270 --> 00:46:02.180
LOOK."
00:46:02.180 --> 00:46:04.130
[LAUGHTER]
00:46:04.170 --> 00:46:07.170
HE SAID IT LIKE YOU WOULD TELL
00:46:07.170 --> 00:46:08.180
YOUR KID IF THE WEEK AFTER
00:46:08.180 --> 00:46:11.070
CHRISTMAS THEY CAME TO YOU AND
00:46:11.070 --> 00:46:12.150
SAID, "MOM, I'M BORED"--
00:46:12.150 --> 00:46:14.160
[LAUGHTER]
00:46:15.150 --> 00:46:18.150
-- YOU WOULD SAY, "WELL, WHAT DO
00:46:18.150 --> 00:46:19.130
YOU HAVE?"
00:46:19.130 --> 00:46:22.120
AND THEN BEFORE YOU GAVE THEM A
00:46:22.120 --> 00:46:23.130
CHANCE TO RESPOND, BECAUSE YOU
00:46:23.130 --> 00:46:24.160
COULD ALREADY TELL THAT THE
00:46:24.160 --> 00:46:25.230
RESPONSE THEY WAS GONNA GIVE YOU
00:46:25.230 --> 00:46:27.010
WAS GONNA GET THEM IN TROUBLE--
00:46:27.010 --> 00:46:29.160
[LAUGHTER]
00:46:29.160 --> 00:46:30.210
-- SO YOU DIDN'T EVEN GIVE 'EM A
00:46:30.210 --> 00:46:32.080
CHANCE, YOU JUST SAY-- YOU WOULD
00:46:32.080 --> 00:46:34.170
SAY TO THEM, "GO AND LOOK 'CAUSE
00:46:34.170 --> 00:46:37.020
IF YOU'LL JUST LOOK, YOU'LL SEE
00:46:37.020 --> 00:46:39.100
THAT THE THING YOU'RE
00:46:39.100 --> 00:46:40.230
COMPLAINING ABOUT IS SOMETHING
00:46:40.230 --> 00:46:41.250
YOU ALREADY HAVE ACCESS TO."
00:46:41.250 --> 00:46:42.290
"IF YOU WILL GO AND LOOK, MOSES,
00:46:42.290 --> 00:46:45.100
YOU WILL SEE THAT EVERYTHING
00:46:45.100 --> 00:46:47.000
YOU NEED TO DO WHAT I'VE
00:46:47.000 --> 00:46:48.120
CALLED YOU TO DO,
00:46:48.120 --> 00:46:49.020
IT'S IN YOUR HAND.
00:46:49.020 --> 00:46:49.170
IT'S THAT ROD, THAT COMMON ROD
00:46:49.170 --> 00:46:50.180
THAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN RIGHT
00:46:50.180 --> 00:46:52.100
BESIDE YOU, BUT NOW I'M GONNA
00:46:52.100 --> 00:46:53.160
INFUSE IT WITH MY POWER.
00:46:53.160 --> 00:46:54.260
IF I CAN JUST GET YOU TO GO AND
00:46:54.260 --> 00:46:55.180
LOOK, MOSES.
00:46:55.180 --> 00:46:56.280
PICK THE STICK UP.
00:46:56.280 --> 00:46:58.040
PUT IT OVER THE RED SEA.

00:53:49.020 --> 00:53:50.190
TWO FISH ARE, THAT YOU HAVE
00:53:50.190 --> 00:53:52.010

00:53:52.010 --> 00:53:53.100
I PRAY THAT YOU WOULD GIVE A
00:53:53.100 --> 00:53:54.230
HOLY COURAGE AND A HOLY BOLDNESS
00:53:54.230 --> 00:53:57.000
THAT WOULD COMPEL US TO OPEN UP
00:53:57.000 --> 00:53:59.010
THE DRAWER AND PULL IT OUT AND
00:53:59.010 --> 00:54:00.180
ENTRUST IT TO YOUR HANDS,
00:54:00.180 --> 00:54:02.090
FATHER.
00:54:02.090 --> 00:54:03.240
GOD, I DO PRAY THAT, IF THIS
00:54:03.240 --> 00:54:05.030
MULTITUDE HAS ANYTHING TO DO
00:54:05.030 --> 00:54:06.180
WITH THE ENEMY, LORD, IF THE
00:54:06.180 --> 00:54:07.290
ENEMY HAS ASSIGNED AN ATTACK ON
00:54:07.290 --> 00:54:10.290
ANY WOMAN OR HER FAMILY, I PRAY
00:54:10.290 --> 00:54:12.120
THAT HIS ATTACK WOULD BE
00:54:12.120 --> 00:54:14.020
CANCELLED IN JESUS' NAME AND BY
00:54:14.020 --> 00:54:16.210
HIS BLOOD THAT HAS BEEN SHED ON
00:54:16.210 --> 00:54:18.270
CALVARY.
00:54:18.270 --> 00:54:19.290
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
00:54:19.290 --> 00:54:22.100
BUT, LORD, IF THIS MULTITUDE IS
00:54:22.100 --> 00:54:23.070
OF YOU, THEN, RIGHT NOW, IN
00:54:23.070 --> 00:54:25.130

[APPLAUSE]
00:54:31.030 --> 00:54:31.270
AND THEN, FATHER, WE'RE GONNA GO

AHEAD AND GET IN A POSTURE OF
00:54:35.220 --> 00:54:38.220

TO HARM THEM; TO GIVE THEM A
00:55:44.270 --> 00:55:46.020
FUTURE AND A HOPE.
00:55:46.020 --> 00:55:48.000
