You can take you see least for a little while you have an
-
opportunity get back a little bit later sometimes it's good
-
just do things. Look different sometimes they
-
just see what God does, you know, God is a We're
-
co-laborers, the sometime. God wants you to go first, let
-
me see what you got. Want you spit your bars first.
-
Let me see your beat what you got.
-
And then God goes like, oh okay, I can ride on top of that.
-
All right, it's sometimes good to give him, no spaces, I want
-
to talk about The champ is here, I began to message at 10:00, and
-
I'm gonna do some review for us in this time, but I want to get
-
to some new material particular. Are some things I think guys,
-
really pressing on my heart to to Really share.
-
So I'll pass in review. I encourage you.
-
Go get the big toe, damn, go get the tape, that's how old I am,
-
go get the tape to take table in the back, right?
-
I saw what I am going to tape, you know, if you get to
-
concession, get a styrofoam cake.
-
Anyway, I encourage you to go take a look at it on YouTube and
-
and and you know, bless your soul and it'll fill in some gaps
-
for us today. So I want to start With a few
-
things while be ready to catch. I do love you.
-
Okay. I want to tell you that, I do
-
love you and part of this message is a message of
-
exhortation because we do love you receive it.
-
I pray as such. First of all, I want to tell you
-
this, stop waiting for someone to tell you who you are.
-
Elsa, tell you who you are. It's really important that you
-
begin to understand who you are and you don't shouldn't have to
-
wait on someone else to tell you who you are.
-
Matthew 7 says this. It says you hypocrite first, get
-
the beam of a Timber out of your own eye and then you will see
-
clearly to take the tiny particle out of your brother's
-
eye. The idea is that you gotta check
-
your own Vision. You can't rely on other people
-
to tell you who you are. You gotta get Claire to yourself
-
about who you are. This is you won't believe
-
anybody. More than you believe yourself
-
regarding those kind of matters. The other thing I want to
-
mention too is when you stop waiting for someone to tell you
-
who you are, you also need to know to stop waiting for someone
-
to tell you how great you are. Who you are, is not just a
-
summary of faults and problems and Brokenness and damaged who
-
you are really is greatness. First, damn is only Happens.
-
If you was hold at one time. Your first identity is in
-
wholeness. Your first identity is in
-
greatness. A counterfeit 20 only works.
-
If there was a real 22 begin with, okay, don't ever take your
-
identity from your state or condition.
-
You take it from the intent of your creation.
-
Don't don't stop waiting for someone to tell who you are.
-
Stop making excuses for who you are now.
-
That's on every side. So keep those five says this
-
concerning this, we have much to say, which is hard to explain
-
since you have become dull in your spiritual hearing and
-
sluggish. It's lawful slothful.
-
But even though, by this time, you ought to be teaching us
-
Others. You actually need someone to
-
teach you over again. Sometimes you gotta stop making
-
excuses for who you are. If it's lawful it's lawful if
-
you sluggish your sluggish, stop making excuses for who you are,
-
be who you are on, who you are? The word says this.
-
I wish you either cold or hot, God can deal with cold.
-
Cold is honest. Cold is authentic, code.
-
Is, I ain't trying to get hot. I'm glad we understand who you
-
are and you understand who you are.
-
I can work with that. Lukewarm deceiving your own
-
selves thinking you something that you're not they just
-
everything confusing slows. The whole process down.
-
Stop making excuses for who you are.
-
First Corinthians 11 says this. Let a man thoroughly examine
-
himself or herself. Fourth, We searchingly examined
-
ourselves, detecting our shortcomings and recognizing our
-
own condition. We should not be judged and
-
penalty decree, examine. Yourself examine your own soul.
-
You have to really take a look at who you are.
-
Excuse making gets in the way of you doing a good examination and
-
the problem is that when you don't do a good examination, I
-
said before you don't find out how glorious you really are, how
-
amazing the intent of your creation really has.
-
Been you miss out on the good stuff?
-
You never get to the good part. Stop.
-
It's time to grow up. It's time to grow up.
-
It's I didn't say it's time to grow up.
-
I said, it's time to grow up. Where your life or you're not
-
grown? What does it mean to be grown?
-
It says this. In First Corinthians 13, He
-
says, one, when I was a child, I thought like a child, I thought
-
like a child, I reasoned like a child.
-
Now that I've become a man, I've done with childish ways in a put
-
them aside, I'm done with them. Put them on the side.
-
It's time to grow up. It's time to get away from the
-
childish things. It's time to make that decision
-
period, you use. I said earlier in the earlier
-
service. I came to church.
-
I'm 50 plus years old, new way of doing things.
-
I can sit back and say Hey, I don't want to be bothered the
-
best way. Is this, y'all don't know what
-
you doing and the Holy Ghost, put my carelessness son.
-
It's time for you to grow up. You need to be more impressed
-
with what I'm doing. Then the way you used to do it
-
and you need to go ahead and ask them what your dirty to your to
-
your are getting rooted here, and you need to grow up and get
-
with what God is doing. Childish, this is not just a
-
function of age, it's a function of maturity and development.
-
Its time grow up. That is subtitle for this is the
-
champion Scout themselves. Everyone say Champions Scout
-
themselves. What does it mean?
-
What does it mean to scout yourself?
-
It means to examine how much are you in the word to examine?
-
How much are you speaking the word of God?
-
It means to examine. What is your love walk?
-
Really? Like a trick First Corinthians
-
13, says this love bears up under anything and everything
-
that comes is ever ready to believe the best of every
-
person. It's hopes are faithless under
-
all circumstances and it indoors everything without weakening its
-
that your love walk. If that's not your love walking,
-
you need to go ahead and examine a scout yourself and say where
-
am I coming up short? You also need to scout yourself
-
and say, hey, where am I doing a good job.
-
Where am I really showing some strong, Finn?
-
What I'm doing? Where have I grown from?
-
The last time I took an inventory of how I am and how I
-
was doing. You gotta do both.
-
Size of that, right? So what is scouting scouting is
-
the process of looking at the details of your opponent, in
-
order to gain an advantage in strategy, execution, in mindset,
-
I want to know what you doing. So I know what to do to
-
counteract, what you doing. I want to know what you doing,
-
so I can see how what you're doing.
-
It's connected to my strengths of my abilities.
-
I want to know what you're doing, so I know what I need to
-
get on my side to overcome, what you bring in, okay?
-
It doesn't mean you have to rely.
-
Why just do what you have. But I need to know.
-
So I need to know what we're dealing with and what we working
-
with when you're scouting and involves a deep examination of
-
every level of the entire team, in the entire organization,
-
scouting is not. Just surface levels, scouting is
-
at every level. Every single level, you got to
-
scout. The players got to scout the
-
coaches. You gotta Scout the front
-
office. You gotta Scout concession
-
stand. You gotta Scout everybody on the
-
team to figure out what are they doing?
-
Because everything that if the team is working, Well, everybody
-
has a role that contributes to Victory.
-
The person selling popcorn and peanuts gets contributing to
-
Victory and they're contributing the victory.
-
You need to know how so you can understand exactly how to
-
respond to that. It's important here to note that
-
your opponents are scouting. You, if you don't think scouting
-
is important. You are opponents do Your
-
opponent's a stout and you they're looking for familiar
-
spirits, poor responses, and uncheck flesh.
-
Acts 19 says this, but one hero Spirit spoke out to someone and
-
said Jesus, I know, and Paul, I know.
-
But who is you, who are you? They scouted Paul.
-
It's got a geez. I know when Jesus shows up, I
-
know what he walks like, what he talks like how he acts, how he
-
moves, I know how to get out of his way when he's moving because
-
I don't want to get caught. But you I don't know what it
-
suggests is this. I've been scouting, you and
-
you're trying to operate out of someplace that you are not at
-
your trying to operate way above your head, way above, your pay
-
grade at this point, you really think you gonna make some
-
progress. You need to check yourself
-
before I have to wreck yourself. Just redoing them favor.
-
Per the enemy scouting, you and look for it says this that Jesus
-
when he was tempted to enemy moves until another more
-
opportune and favorable time, the enemy is scouting for
-
opportunities, he's got it for patterns.
-
Okay, well someone Pat's you on the back says good job.
-
You get so enamored with people-pleasing that you get
-
pumped up enemigos. All right?
-
The way that make you crash is to have people with hold that
-
affirmation. Now you a crash, it?
-
Okay? He's looking for opportune times
-
in which to move when you're weak, or when you're strong and
-
you get distracted by what God is doing.
-
He's looking for opportune times.
-
So, ultimately Champion Scout themselves.
-
It's important to really recognize that Luke 14 says
-
this, for which of you wishing to build a farm.
-
Building does not first sit down and calculate the cost whether
-
you have sufficient means to finish it.
-
Scouting yourself. Do I have the resources?
-
Do I have the Personnel? Do I have that vision for?
-
Do I have what it takes to get through the difficult times?
-
That is scouting yourself. The scripture says, it's wise
-
for you to understand who you are, who you working with, and
-
what you have because Champions learn to scout themselves.
-
The enemy is scouting. You the enemy's checking your
-
Tendencies. The enemy seemed ways that
-
you're familiar ways that you're comfortable, the enemies,
-
checking to see things. You haven't addressed and dealt
-
with. You need to do the very same
-
thing. Ready.
-
The scripture goes on to say this, I won't read it, but it
-
says this. Because if you hit, if you don't
-
Scout yourself to see whether you're able to finish, you'll
-
get started. We'll have enough to finish and
-
not everybody's laughing at you. Everybody's pointing the finger.
-
Oh, that's what Jesus looks like.
-
Sorry, young, keep that I can finish them home.
-
If that's what Jesus looks like. All the talk a little bit about
-
what. Good scouting is good.
-
Scouting makes you be honest with Self.
-
We got a deal according to the faith, God has given you.
-
You got to be honest with yourself, I don't have the faith
-
for that. I do have the faith for that.
-
I got the face for that but I don't have the discipline for
-
it. Good scouting causes you.
-
To be honest with yourself, you can't have transformation
-
without correct information about exactly where you really
-
are. It's important to be honest with
-
yourself. Good scouting breaks Tendencies,
-
you do everything the same way all the time Paster talks about
-
this hey You come in and praise the day, do something different
-
moves to a different seat, take a different posture.
-
Let your body activate you in a way that causes new things to be
-
released, good scouting breaks Tendencies.
-
Tendencies can get you in a rut Tendencies from athletic
-
perspective will call stagnation.
-
Are you stop growing even though you keep working these things
-
get too frustrated. And like you talked about when
-
he shared earlier you think things not working.
-
So you quit good scouting. Yeah, cause you to break
-
Tendencies when you Scout yourself, you find out.
-
What do my going consistently, right?
-
What am I doing consistently wrong.
-
The Scouting is honest, accountability.
-
Honest accountability Joshua 1 says this Moses.
-
My servant is dead, it's not get up good scouting brings honest
-
accountability sometimes just is what it is.
-
Discounting is not well you know you're not you do okay.
-
And You know, and maybe with a little more work you can be but
-
you're not gonna make it. We're gonna cut you tomorrow.
-
It's better than you know now and get on to the next plan for
-
your life because the grace ain't on you for here but maybe
-
you'll find in this place. You go being fired appropriately
-
and quickly can't be a promotion.
-
It stops you from confusing and wasting your time and effort is
-
something that God is not going to produce and you can't reduce
-
without him. Honestly.
-
Countability good scouting makes you face the hard Parts.
-
Second Timothy To says this, take your share of the hardships
-
and suffering. As a good soldier, a good.
-
First class soldier of Christ. Jesus.
-
Good scouting would have you faced the hard part's?
-
Good scouting. Tails listen.
-
Every time they get into a hard place they don't they back up
-
they back down in order to see that whatever Next Level.
-
God has you with the to achieve, they going to be Hearts places
-
and good. Scouting will evaluate whether
-
you can succeed there and it's If you use an athletic
-
perspective when an athlete goes to a team to figure out whether
-
they can play for that team, that team will put them through
-
a workout. The workout will put that
-
athlete in hard, places to see whether they can endure the hard
-
places and do you know that sometimes the heart place isn't
-
on the field. Sometimes a hard place is in the
-
interview room. They put you at a table in the
-
interview room and they have a Cameron the mirror watching you
-
and the intentionally say, okay, we're not going to go in there
-
for 15 minutes. Let's see how they respond to
-
ambiguity and uncertainty and stress and pressure everybody.
-
On our team is going to be height weight measured.
-
The question is, we had a mindset to be effective.
-
Do they get distracted or did he stay in ready for someone to
-
come through the door? They start getting on their
-
phone. Scrolling through Facebook, good
-
scouting makes you face. The hard part's good scouting
-
requires stained intentional self-examination.
-
Psalm 139, says this, try me and know my thoughts.
-
See if there is any wicked a hurtful way in me.
-
You got to be intentional and self-examination.
-
It doesn't happen by accident. If happens by you.
-
Have any willingness to actively engage the process?
-
Lord, search me. God, I'm in this almost and and
-
I'm going to stare and I'm going to look, I'm gonna be patient if
-
I have to keep listening and praying for days or weeks.
-
Got I'm in this thing but it does require you to be
-
intentional and the face was exactly what you what you see,
-
good scouting, confirms your Authority and Power.
-
John chapter 10 says this. Jesus says, no one takes my life
John 10 chapter mention
-
away from me. I'm authorized and have power to
-
lay it down. I know who I am.
-
I've scouted myself. How did Jesus God himself?
-
You know, Jesus, God himself. He went through the scriptures
-
and as he went through the scriptures, the spirit of God
-
said that shoe right there. That's you.
-
You have that Authority. That's why I've called you to
-
be. You going to fulfill that part.
-
That is your purpose. That's your plan.
-
That's your call. And he understood who he was.
-
He understood his authority. Good scouting will.
-
Have, you understand your strengths?
-
If you don't understand your strengths, you won't know the
-
grace where God operates in your life.
-
Most strongly, you gotta know. You know, I've heard is that
-
this, that the key to real Success is Not Your yes.
-
Is this your nose? If he knows say no.
-
Yes. Don't mean much.
-
In order to say, yes, you got to know what your strengths are.
-
And once you know what your strengths are knows become easy.
-
Now, that ain't me. No, I don't do that.
-
No, that's not right. No, I can't do that.
-
No, I can tell you someone who can but that's not me.
-
No, know if you get this call me.
-
So I can do that all day long. At the highest level it requires
-
knowing your strengths as well. Good scouting.
-
And if cause you to be bold, going to go to John 18.
-
I want to go over this room, very quickly.
-
Pilate said to Jesus, then you are a King.
-
Jesus answered facts, they said facts.
-
So why are we still talking? I know who I am.
-
You know? Who you are, Sam.
-
And what you got to say. Your king, recognize King.
-
What you got? When, you know your strengths,
-
not afraid. You're not, you don't shout,
-
that's not Pride. If you were king and you acting
-
like a pauper or a prince, then you are then exercising, Pride,
-
you putting yourself at the middle of your identity, rather
-
than who God's called you to be. Jesus said, I'm a king mcnutt's.
-
Not check out the flex on this though.
-
Here's the flex Jesus is like this, this chakra through our
-
Paces on jumpsuit, What about it?
-
Well you know who you are. Your conditions can't convince
-
you otherwise your circumstance can't pressure from the outside.
-
Can't would you know who you are?
-
And I will tell you the thing, the enemy tries to do most easy,
-
get you to change your name and change your identity.
-
There's a scene in a in a TV series called Roots.
-
I don't, you know about that. Alex Haley Roots and it's a
-
about a family that was taken hostage in Africa and brought to
-
the US as slaves and is an iconic scene there, where young
-
Kunta Kinte is his name, I believe I'm pronouncing it
-
properly, he's strapped up and they whipping them and the whole
-
point of whipping him is to make him say his name, your name,
-
Toby. Wow, Kunta Kunta Kinte, the name
-
is Toby, whack Kunta good, I know who I am.
-
Even under pressure. The only reason he said it
-
because he's so felt for his parents and their fear for his
-
life that he finally said Toby. But as soon as they cut his foot
-
and cut him down, he said my name is still Kunta Kinte.
-
When you know who you are, you don't flex this Gowdy innovates
-
strengths. Jesus had all the fivefold
-
ministry in him. But he understood what was going
-
to be required to move forward as a church.
-
So after he Descended and then us and and he said I'm going to
-
take the gifts in me and I'm gonna spread them around amongst
-
people. You may have been able to pin me
-
down with a crowd but now I'm gonna put my gifts and you you
-
you IMA innovate try to catch all 500 of us now it becomes
-
difficult. If not impossible because County
-
innovates the enemy the devil can't be every place.
-
So the more I put my gifts in more people the more he's
-
overmatched the more he's outclassed the more he He
-
doesn't have a chance. Good strategist Gotti.
-
What will innovate? Good scouting projects
-
development because cat allows you to see where you need to
-
grow and what God is taking you on a walk through, this is some
-
scriptures, very quickly. Matthew 16 we have Jesus's
-
account talking to Peter when he says you are the Christ.
-
He says this. And I tell you you are Peter a
-
rock. He's telling me, you got
-
Potential man, you do you solid. I know it's in you.
-
I know your future. I know what God can do with you
-
and your life, you solid, but in Luke 22.
-
He says this beer, I'm telling you before, single cock shall
-
crows. This day, you will three times
-
deny me, even deny that, you know, me.
-
So the choice now is you throw all that away.
-
What you do. Here's what Jesus Does The
-
Scouting develops Talent? The develops Talent through
-
weakness, do insecurity, good scouting, develops.
-
This is what Jesus says. When he gets up from the grave
-
to, the people who came out, he said, but he said not get on
-
your way. Tell the disciples and Peter, I
-
have not forgotten the potential in.
-
You have not forgotten the plans.
-
For you. I know you denied me.
-
I know that Shane has come on you because of that.
-
But I'm telling you, I've scouted you Peter.
-
I know who you were before the foundations of the world and I'm
-
telling you the calling your life has not changed the calling
-
your life has not diminished their still place and purpose
-
and opportunity for you either. Get up and get going, man.
-
The Scouting develops potential, good scouting magnifies
-
weaknesses. It gets back to understand.
-
You're good at and what you're not second Corinthians 12 says
-
this show yourselves. Oh here I come.
-
I'll all the more gladly glory in my weaknesses and infirmities
-
that the strength and power of Christ May rest upon me.
-
He says some visit, the Buffett me as a seal or three times take
-
it away. He said, brother, you might you
-
asking the wrong thing. You ought to be focused on how
-
much bigger I am than that. You know what the most one of
-
the most iconic games is and basketball is the Denver game
-
game 6. I believe the Denver gang.
-
Well, Michael Jordan put about 40.
-
I know how he scored on the Denver Nuggets.
-
Do you know why that's an iconic game?
-
It's called the flu game with. Jordan says it was a bad Pizza,
-
either way, he's on the sidelines, throwing up in
-
between plays he's guardi. Andrew when the play is going,
-
he's like this as soon as the ref calls timeout.
-
He's gonna see me like this, Why do you remember that?
-
Not because he didn't have a thorn but because he drew on the
-
grace to overcome even with some Thorn.
-
That's why you remember that game.
-
Thank you. That's why I remember that game,
-
clicking Scotty magnifies weaknesses because when you
-
magnify the weakness the grace of God is there to meet you,
-
good scouting reloads rather than rebuild.
-
This scouting is always look to position.
-
People always look to activate people if you're in a church
-
like This and we have 15 Usher's.
-
And someone says, the Lord says, you know, I think maybe you, you
-
should maybe want to Usher a serve in that category, you'll
-
look back and say, I don't understand why you got 15
-
Usher's. We listen, we're not trying to
-
ever rebuild. We always just trying to reload.
-
We want people already activated and ready to go.
-
We don't have to want to. We don't have to want to wait,
-
three years in between every Championship, I'm from Chicago
-
and Chicago, Bears and won a championship in 1985.
-
They've been rebuilding ever since In that time, Patriots won
-
like seven championships, they've been reloading ever
-
since you don't have to rebuild, you want to have to reload.
-
That's what God did with Moses and Joshua.
-
Good scouting looks at the entire year and where you going?
-
Not just where you are. We don't have to be this week,
-
next week, what am I going to face Monday?
-
Wednesday, September, December the scouting projects the entire
-
year, and where you have to be, you have to examine yourself.
-
Where am I in this season of Life?
-
Next, season of Life, The Next Period I'm going to face
-
piscotty looks in all of that. Not just where I am right now
-
and where I'm going to be. Like, you know, an ultimate, A
-
Five-Year Plan looks like, where am I going?
-
What's the trajectory good. Scouting values, mindset
-
maturity and motor over measurables.
-
The Bible talks about how God looks at the heart.
-
With David, I don't care how big you are.
-
I'm big enough for both of us. What I need is a mindset.
-
What I need is maturity and I need a heart, I need a motor,
-
it's not gonna quit. I need some folks, they faulty
-
gonna get up who when the righteous fall, they get up
-
seven times. I need you to be able to
-
rebound, I need you to be able to deal.
-
Adversity and say do perplex. I'm not cast down forsaken
-
mother forbade abandoned but not forsaken, I need you to be able
-
to go. I'll have all the measurables
-
that you need but I can't change your mindset.
-
You got to work and do that. So good to you.
-
Look for the measurables, the enemies greatest Advantage is
-
your ignorance of Who You Are. Scouting yourself destroys the
-
enemies greatest Advantage ignorance because you know who
-
you are. You come to understand who you
-
are. Man I can sit on that.
-
All day, your heart will always Scout you your heart never let
-
you get away with stuff. If you cheating the process,
-
your heart going to condemn you and it's your heart that will
-
cause you to feel that you not quite This or not quite that.
-
You may not say, you may not tell nobody, but your heart
-
knows, that's why it's important to make.
-
Sure your is that you are honoring God in the secret
-
places in the private places. So that way your heart does not
-
condemn you and you know exactly who you are.
-
First, there's some deception of who you are because you've been
-
cutting corners. Good scouting requires a team
-
scouts at every level and this is the place where I really want
-
you to dial in and focus with the rest of this time.
-
This County requires a team, you can't do it on your own.
-
You need other people, there's got to be people in your life.
-
Not just, haha people, but people who work with you, if
-
they tell you, you got a bad attitude, it's not a discussion.
-
It's not a debate. It's yes, you're right.
-
I have a bad attitude. You gotta have those people in
-
your life. Who, who you give them the
-
Liberty to scout you. You give them the Grace to pull
-
your chain to give them. You give them wait in your life.
-
Then when they tell you, you're slacking, you go, okay?
-
Yeah, you're right. It's not a debate.
-
It's not an explanation is not. Let me explain why.
-
It's not, what you don't understand what I've been going
-
through. Now, you're right, I'm slacking
-
facts. And that's it.
-
If you don't have those people in your life, you'll walk around
-
deceiving yourself. So good, scouting requires
-
Mission requires us to teach one another and teach each other and
-
encourage each other. If Willing to submit to someone
-
being able to call that out of you.
-
You're going to walk around to see if you yourself thinking,
-
you're better than you are the stronger than you are.
-
And what's gonna happen is you're gonna get challenged one
-
day and then you going to collapse under your own weight
-
because you never was what you thought you were.
-
And when that happens, hopefully, it's not at a high
-
level, which means other people's lives.
-
Get shattered in the process first, but when that happens,
-
the first thing you do is this wise You let me, why didn't you
-
say something? Well, you didn't want to listen.
-
Well, why don't you just override that I'm not here to be
-
a dictator? Now, if you want my help I'll
-
Scout you. And then I'll let you know what
-
I'm seeing. And but if you don't want to
-
help fine, I'll Scout the folks who want to be Scout.
-
I help the people that want to be helped.
-
This guy team requires you, as I said, just to say, you're right,
-
and stop being difficult. Good scouting requires you to
-
say you're right. Stop being difficult.
-
Hebrews 13 says this obey your spiritual leaders and submit to
-
them. The bottom says this, do your
-
part to let them do this with gladness and not with sighing.
-
And groaning was that would not be profitable to you.
-
You got to be willing to say yes when I got an attitude folk
-
don't want no attitude, I ain't got time for that.
-
Go stay in your bondage. You know what happened?
-
When people stay in their bondage, they get they get cut.
-
Now, you don't get cut either way.
-
The Bible says, you either be cut back prune to Bear more
-
fruit. I'll cut off and sit someplace
-
else. You don't get cut either way,
-
but they going to be cut to move forward.
-
I cut to be moved to move to the side.
-
You gotta be willing to give if you would all this attitude and
-
it gets back to Who you gonna submit to Good championship,
-
teams learning Scout themselves. Tom Brady got someone that's
-
Scouts him the tell sometimes you're doing this too much.
-
What I'm the greatest quarterback ever to I get that
-
time but I see this pattern of problem or whatever it is goes
-
on in your in your practice. They got to be willing to stop
-
being difficult. Good scouting requires you to be
-
quiet and listen Miss. I'm like you said that already?
-
Yeah. And we only To hear it about
-
what 50 more time. Just got it requires you to not
-
stop talking and listen. Okay, listen, you got an
-
attitude, you need to stop it now. 12 listen good, this God
-
requires you stop and listen, guess what?
-
I think you're amazing. I've always believed in you and
-
the talent that you have. You do stuff. if that blows
-
people's minds and Amazing call on your life.
-
The Scouting says I'll stop and I'll listen And if you say that
-
my answer is still the same. Yes, you're right.
-
It works both ways. Good.
-
Scouting requires you to get out of your fields.
-
Matthew 17 says this and I brought him to your disciples so
-
these people couldn't do the work.
-
Instead of the person is talking I brought him to your disciples
-
and they were not able to cure him and Jesus answered.
-
Oh you unbelieving, walked away with rebellious thoroughly.
-
Perverse, generation. How long I got to be with you.
-
How long about a bear with you? Bring them to me.
-
On the other side is understanding.
-
How to break through. You can't be in your feels good.
-
Scouting requires you not to be in your feelings, you are not
-
performing at the level. You will never be a pro, you
-
will never excel at this level. What you don't understand is my
-
dream now. Okay, I'm okay.
-
All right, I'll deal with that. Jesus will come at you very
-
directly and if you in your feels you're going to miss it
-
because got him requires the word.
-
Everyone says the word because the word is going to expose you.
-
The word of God is going to uncover you.
-
The word of God is going to reveal in.
-
You exactly what's going on. It says this in Hebrews 4 that
-
the word is is alive and sharpening, a two-edged sword.
-
We all know that part but to the bottom it says this exposing and
-
sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and
-
purposes of your heart. The word is scouting, you.
-
The word is checking you right in the Always speaks the truth.
-
Do you want to hear it or not? And if you don't then the word
-
go silent. That's why you got to be willing
-
to submit to the word of God, not when you find out what it
-
says but because it is the word of God submit to the word of God
-
and didn't say God I'm have to figure it out if it hurts this
-
confused about to figure it out but I'm submitting to it.
-
Why what does that mean? It means god.
-
I trust that you love me. I trust that you had a
-
communicating to me in ways that are for my good for me and for
-
the generations to come now. For all eternity God, I think
-
Got a plan is so big that maybe, you know, things that I don't
-
know, maybe you understand things, I can't quite
-
understand. So when I go to your word and
-
I'm confused or think things are in Conflict, I'm not gonna say
-
God, what's the problem? I said God, show me what you're
-
really talking about here. Help me understand what it says.
-
It seems confusing to me. I want to tell you one story
-
about that very quickly in terms of God, revealing the word, I'm
-
African-American. My skin tone is brown and I come
-
from the US. People use the Bible to justify
-
slavery and one of the verses is slaves obey your masters.
-
Now people have talked about slavery, being something
-
different back in that day you being not slavery as the u.s.
-
knew it with more internship server to okay fine.
-
Make those distinctions but it still says slaves obey.
-
Your masters. I never says Masters.
-
Go get slaves. He said whatever state you find
-
yourself in, don't discredit the love of God, by getting into
-
account of rebellion that counteracts.
-
Exactly who you are. It says that once this one other
-
place, another verse it says this slaves obey your masters on
-
your message but if you have an ability to get your freedom, go
-
get it. That's a God.
-
Those are just verse this but then gosh turned my heart.
-
God is hard God what God what does that mean for me?
-
How do I deal with that? What?
-
Is that mean for my family? What I've experienced and God
-
said, man, it's more than a verse, that's a response, it's
-
the book of Philemon, there's a whole book, God has in response
-
to that get Booker's of cleanliness in response to
-
slavery, not just the fur. But you mean what?
-
You not understand the book of Philemon by Lehman was someone
-
that had a slave named Donna. Simius on the Simian said, I'm
-
gonna get my freedom All the same.
-
He is took off on his way to taking off.
-
He went to Rome and Rome encounter, Paul.
-
And Paul, he got saved and born again.
-
But Paul said, on the see me, she got to make this right, bro.
-
IMA write a letter for you. So, Paul pens, a letter to
-
Philemon. Philemon, you slave do what you
-
want, but just remember, I'm the one who helped set you free.
-
I'm the one that brought at Liberty to your house and if and
-
if I've done anything good for you, Think about that when you
-
trying to do something to him, if you owes you money, I'll pay
-
you. Even if I don't, pay you need to
-
cancel it anyway. What you want to do, Philemon?
-
The whole book of Philemon as a response to the heart question
-
that people use one verse on to distort.
-
A whole generation is centuries and a system.
-
That's saying God, I'm spend to your word, help me understand.
-
Show me biscotti requires the Holy Spirit, of course.
-
Romans 8 says this, he who searches the heart of man knows
-
what is the mind of the, of the spirit for the spirit enter
-
season. These before, God, on behalf of
-
the Saints. According to, and in harmony
-
with God's will, it's the holy spirit that knows your heart.
-
We've already read Psalm 139 to talks about that search.
-
My heart. You can't beat, you can't, when
-
he Scout yourself without the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit
-
going tell you the real deal. He's gonna tell you what's
-
really going on. He's going to look deep.
-
He's gonna look in the dirty you know.
-
The Holy Spirit does triage, you know what triage is, okay?
-
You ever see the movie and TV show MASH?
-
We must see that magic a that's triage triage is stuff blood
-
guts everywhere. You got a mask on with the blood
-
is flying. So much has gone on top of the
-
mass, under the mask, in your mouth and your nose, it's just
-
the nature of the thing and people say the risk of saving
-
life. The water saving life is worth
-
the risk. The Holy Ghost is not afraid to
-
get into the deepest, darkest dankest, places of your heart
-
and soul, if you willing to let him into Scout, you in those
-
areas, he knows the truth. But listen, When I say that, how
-
many of you in here right now? Go like yeah, dirty tank.
-
He knows the diamond that's in you.
-
He knows the value that's in you, you know, the mountains us
-
on your life. You knows what you been through
-
the try to discourage you from. Walking out in, you're calling
-
your destiny. You knows how to operate.
-
He knows with a place where it's going to operate best.
-
How many of you are would take a?
-
If I had a Lamborghini right here and it was covered in mud
-
and I said who want this mud? How many of y'all will go.
-
Like I'll take it. wow, because the mud on it, don't mean the
-
mud is it The Holy Spirit understands what God created you
-
to be who you made you to be, do you understand the trauma that's
-
come on you to create mud on the top?
-
He said a reveal the diamonds and reveal the truth of the
-
treasure. That's on the inside of you but
-
that only comes if you let him stay out you championship teams
-
learning Scout themselves and part of what keeps us from
-
scouting ourselves. It's fear of what we're going to
-
find shame of what we've been through.
-
A concern that we won't have to deal with some things.
-
Finally, that we've been hiding. You think not Scout yourself is
-
going to make you Excel? It's just gonna set you up to
-
fail and be confused and be disappointed.
-
Told the story in the first service by Tom Brady.
-
He was a fifth round, draft pick low rounds, he's on the team.
-
You walk past them that the coaches were only saws filed on
-
the table. They want to take a look at it
-
and it said, uh, all right, little bit of our Strength,
-
skinny, I don't know maybe, third string.
-
Once he started scanning report, he knew what he was dealing with
-
The Scouting Report unlocked, his greatness because he's able
-
to honestly deal with the fact, I've never started my college
-
team. I was picking the fifth round
-
for a reason. Let me just get roll my sleeves
-
up and get to work. Best investment that, Team ever
-
made best investment. The league is ever made. so, I'm
-
going to close this time out in prayer, and I want to ask you to
-
engage The close, your eyes, even in this kind of lead, maybe
-
Lean Forward, just to engage. Father, we thank you, and I'm
-
asking the holy spirit being worshipped in you.
-
Come on up, I'm asking the Holy Spirit.
-
Father, eliminate the barriers, to be self, scouted, God, lift
-
the shame, remove the fear. Remove the concern, remove the
-
Brokenness and the barriers, and the scar tissue that gets in the
-
way. Lord, clear the way for you to
-
do the work in us for us to scout ourselves.
-
Lord, remove the fears that keep us from being afraid to submit
-
to people when they have something to say.
-
Remove the barriers that calls us to be touchy when people just
-
telling us the truth. God help us to see the jewels of
-
people you have in our lives to be able to just say yes.
-
You're right. Yes, I have an attitude.
-
Yes. If they say it ten thousand
-
times each time is just yes. You're right IMA keep saying.
-
Yes. As long as you keep calling it
-
out but then I'm Do something about it.
-
Father, we thank you, the right now, you're moving all over this
-
room and our hearts and our lives.
-
You're changing our prayers. God say, God, give me a team to
-
help. Help me Scout myself.
-
Give me some people who I can trust some people, I can rely
-
on. Well, I'll be willing to be
-
vulnerable to to see the good, the bad, the joys, the games are
-
sorrows, so I can really see where I am.
-
So, I want to be on a championship run.
-
Oh, Lord. Thank you, Father.
-
Thank you for this moment. Thank you for the joy.
-
Of these Revelations coming. Jesus name.
-
Stories that have proved faithfulness.
-
And now seen Miracles, my mind can comprehend, and there is
-
Beauty in what I can undo. Stan, Jesus, it's you, Jesus, is
-
And I'm the one to working God in the wonder-working.
-
God all the Miracles. I see, you're too good to not
-
believe the wonder-working. God you heal because you love
-
all the Miracles? Has I see too good tonight up
-
and leave two goods and I'll believe too good to not believe.
-
He's not here with my own head but just raise the dead.
-
So, all the glory to the only one who cares.
-
Jesus it. You that's a response most I
-
can't wait to make my own. We just saw the glory to Jesus.
-
Tase you. Oh, Jesus.
-
You're too good to last. I c-can't to disappear.
-
I see, broken bodies heal. Don't you tell me I can't do it?
-
Don't you tell me I can't do it? Why Siri, like Resurrection, I
-
see mental health resort. You might have to turn the music
-
down with tiny bit, but when I was watching the stream, I seen
-
the worst clean, the number of people beginning to cry.
-
I saw Malia starting to cry a lot and I'm like, okay, God,
-
really moving started.
-
Texting me, telling me. I couldn't help, but to want to
-
call in its Kyle still here. So the people of Love quest for
-
other your new or not, I just felt, I had to call the one.
-
I was going to wait and just tell people, hey, tell Kyle to
-
get back. I feel like there's something in
-
this moment that people need to understand when I say we're
-
Revival. Like how many times do we have
-
to prophesy? The sons and daughters are
-
coming home and it, don't don't forget, Kyle's name was in that
-
bucket as well. Hallelujah, you want a nation to
-
believe God? And we're going to have to have
-
a church believed God, and I just wanted to pray over Kyle,
-
because there's no moment right now.
-
I need people that are new to love quest to understand a
-
little bit. Kyle, was a young man who came
-
to church and Vancouver. Kyle gives stand up or if Kyle
-
can come to the front, that would be great.
-
So people can see God. I want people to understand what
-
we were to Strathcona, everybody knows these tastings and what
-
the rumor is about that. There is a story, there is a
-
narrative, but God is looking for people.
-
And I want people to remember what the Lord has said to us
-
wherever the double river goes, there will be life.
-
And for those you may see Kyle right now, but and and Kyle
-
shirt is tucked in, but there was a time that Kyle walked in
-
our church. We can Sony couldn't keep up.
-
There was a time Kyle walking our church.
-
So, high off of hardcore drugs, there was a time that Kyle would
-
walk in our church with 10 blankets on them.
-
There was a time we would lock down church and say bye to Kyle
-
as he fell asleep on the steps. And I remember there was a
-
couple times. Kyle would begin to worship, I
-
remember calling him out front, if I'm facing the audience,
-
Audience. I remember that.
-
I remember that day. Clearly, when we call Kyle down
-
to the left side and we began to prophesy that Kyle is going to
-
sober up and Kyle is going to preach the gospel one day and
-
Kyle is gonna be one of my Amy's one day.
-
I remember that Kyle popped up on the marriage Ministry called
-
one day. Standing by him.
-
Even as he was strung out on drugs.
-
He had a child in our church for many reasons, but we've said it
-
over and over that God is bringing his sons and daughters
-
home. And as we got out of that, 21
-
days of fasting and praying. I'm telling you that we are
-
about to see more and more and more and more Sons and
-
Daughters, walk back in church. God's word will not return void.
-
I want to say to you Kyle that you have not lost your value.
-
I heard something today that if you have a dirty all crinkly
-
Dollar I'm feces on it and you hold it up next to a fresh off
-
the press dollar, you might want to take the fresh off, the press
-
dollar but a dollar is a, what never loses its value.
-
So even in your conditions, Kyle, when you were strung out
-
on drugs, if you were Dean God's child and you never have lost
-
your balance. You never have lost your value
-
son just because you're cleaned up, don't make you more
-
valuable. And I remember talking to you
-
and looking pasture conditions and calling the son of God up,
-
and I wanted to tell you and daughters are coming home.
-
His sons and daughters are soaked, sobering up.
-
God is handing out, even Kyle. I need you to hear this and
-
everybody else got is contending for their sons, their daughters
-
do Father's Day. Mother's, God is handing out new
-
lungs. He's handing out a new livers
-
and he's handing out a new brain cells and dreams you went from a
-
statistic to a meaningful specific.
-
The doors are closing on your addiction.
-
If you're shaming is drying, up your child, your child will know
-
a mighty man of God as a father, not drunk.
-
You will live in the land of more than enough.
-
Sturdy, you'd have not messed up, God's plans to use your
-
story as a part of his plans for you, for your child for your
-
family. Your past will not overshadow
-
your future, but your future will overshadow your past.
-
He's treating your addiction for drugs, porn addiction for
-
righteousness and salvation Kyle that pharmakeia has no more
-
power over your life. Once moved in and out of your
-
life, it has no more authority over your life.
-
So we bind the spirit of pharmakeia, in the name of
-
Jesus, I want you to know Kyle that there's a seat.
-
I remember the night that we kept saying that there's a place
-
in My Father's House in my father's house and I, Remember,
-
we put a chair on the stage Kyle.
-
There's a see that you belong in in your father's house, your
-
deliverance, your deliverance has shattered the chains of
-
addiction over. The region of Vancouver,
-
you are representing Location of a Revival of sobriety is about
-
to hit our land in Jesus name. Suddenly bounce, bounce backs.
-
You're not just getting sober but you're getting your
-
faculties back. Getting your memory back.
-
You're getting your dreams fact, you're getting your family back.
-
You're getting your confidence back.
-
You're getting your vocabulary back.
-
You are getting your intelligence backs.
-
You are getting your power back. You're getting your surprise.
-
Back your health back. I declare that you are whole
-
from the crown of your head, to the soles of your feet and I
-
declare over the body of Christ and over the region that instead
-
of more prisons being built, there will be a release of
-
millions of dollars into the kingdom for more transitional
-
homes and Recovery homes. In the name of Jesus, and I
-
declare last week that there's pastors and evangelists that we
-
have never seen. Seen before because addiction
-
has happened. But I declared that there's
-
pastors and evangelists that are rising from the ashes of
-
addiction. This is this is the new church.
-
This is what God is doing. He's putting people in the
-
Pulpit with real stories, that really understand his Redemption
-
that really understands his power that really understands
-
that he'll had a but L don't have a little more clear.
-
Children will be getting their fathers back.
-
Children will be getting their mothers back.
-
So there's someone in the room right now.
-
When your father has struggled with alcoholism and addiction, I
-
declare in the name of Jesus, you can, before they leave this
-
earth, you can expect that. You will have your father with a
-
sober mind for not being able to take care of you and love you.
-
Kyle, stand firm. I don't care if you go back and
-
try drug, Media will not work. God is your piece.
-
God is your Refuge. God is your strength.
-
God is your high. God Jehovah, the most high.
-
And I tell you, I tell you Kyle, you have not experienced a high,
-
in the name of Jesus. I declare that you are filled
-
with the spirit of God. And if you have never said out
-
of your mouth, Kyle, that Jesus is Lord.
-
I command you in the name of Jesus to kiss right now, lift,
-
your hands up his face. Jesus is my Lord and Savior.
-
I want you to face the audience and I want you to shout as loud
-
as you can. That Jesus is Lord, 12 Jesus is
-
Lord. We've had to listen that is
-
Simplicity of your story, hundreds and thousands will come
-
to Jesus Christ, Mighty Men of God In Love quest.
-
I want you to wrap your arms around him, Mighty women of God
-
at love present, you to wrap your arms around them and I want
-
you, and I want the world to see what it looks like when God
-
brings his children. How He commands his church to
-
embrace our brother embrace our sister, we will not let you
-
fall. So Church stretch your hands to
-
Kyle right now. If your girl is not only rubbish
-
get her up there with you right now and I want you to stretch
-
your hands. I do feel right now.
-
I feel like I lost another one. It's worth it is worth getting
-
up and set up. Here's, it's worth of water.
-
Through the tent is worth fasting and praying 21 days in a
-
row. This is somebody's son.
-
Somebody's Daughter is worth it. If you ever doubted the long
-
night, if you ever doubted three services in you ever counted,
-
Stretch your hands towards them and begin to open your mouth and
-
pray. And as you pray for someone
-
else's son, as you pray for someone else's daughter, I want
-
you to believe for yours. I don't care how far your child
-
kids will return. It's a refreshing change from
-
one word. There's someone in the room
-
right now. Now, I want to turn the
-
attention to what's in the room. Right now, only reason God is
-
displaying his miracle-working power is because if he did it
-
for Kyle, he did it for Kyle's. Parents.
-
If he did it for Kyle's grandparents, if he did it for,
-
Kyle's children can do it for you.
-
So, whatever this last song is, whatever happens, whatever
-
breaks out is has to be a moment of faith is, has to be a moment
-
of Celebration and not sadness has to be a moment of Hope
-
because he did it before he can do it again.
-
Same God, right now, saying God back then, Julie and I really
-
love you guys. I'm telling you what God has
-
been doing in our lives over the last couple of days.
-
Last few days. We ready to come home right now.
-
We're going to finish our trip because we know God has more but
-
I will say this to you love quest.
-
There's a word in the house when we come back the Lord has said
-
very clearly that he's bringing everything together.
-
And we are heading into a season the next season, and we are
-
about to see a massive Harvest walk through our doors, and
-
that's not only Souls, but it is finances.
-
Is resources is favor. There is about to be an uncommon
-
power that rests upon love quest but it's not for us to Bath in
-
on four walls. Is for you to walk in the
-
marketplace. The Lord is calling us to
-
prepare the house for the Harvest is, he's the lord of the
-
Harvest and he sending Sons and Daughters home, and we have to
-
be prepared to love people. We have to be prepared, to
-
accept people not compromise. We also have to be ready to
-
disciple people. He's sending us the Harvest, but
-
we have to be ready. So all you people, you don't
-
have a love, you don't have a whole church home.
-
Look, West, make it to church. You cannot find one because the
-
Harvest is being released on houses that are built on the
-
foundation of the Apostles and Prophets of God is about to
-
release. Yes, there will be no room in
-
our house, there will be. No is about to hit our house in
-
the most authentic way. We will not fumble.
