<v ->This program is made
possible by the giving</v>

2
00:00:03.390 --> 00:00:06.300
of the God called partners
of Renner Ministries.

3
00:00:07.290 --> 00:00:08.310
<v ->Hello friend.</v>

4
00:00:08.310 --> 00:00:10.470
My name is Denise Renner

5
00:00:10.470 --> 00:00:13.110
and I wanna welcome you to my program.

6
00:00:13.110 --> 00:00:16.650
We have been having amazing programs,

7
00:00:16.650 --> 00:00:18.900
and if you haven't seen any
of these programs, go back

8
00:00:18.900 --> 00:00:22.710
to the archives because you're
gonna be encouraged about the

9
00:00:22.710 --> 00:00:27.330
power of God that lives
on the inside of you.

10
00:00:27.330 --> 00:00:30.300
Jesus said that we are
more than conquerors,

11
00:00:30.300 --> 00:00:31.590
not just conquerors,

12
00:00:32.460 --> 00:00:35.730
but more than conquerors
through Christ Jesus.

13
00:00:35.730 --> 00:00:37.230
Isn't that awesome?

14
00:00:37.230 --> 00:00:39.690
And we're calling these programs,

15
00:00:39.690 --> 00:00:42.870
It's Not Over till It's Over.

16
00:00:42.870 --> 00:00:47.460
Sometimes we quit too soon.
Have you ever quit too soon?

17
00:00:47.460 --> 00:00:50.490
I think that I have on different things,

18
00:00:50.490 --> 00:00:54.330
and God still had the power within me,

19
00:00:54.330 --> 00:00:57.000
but I didn't know about it at that time.

20
00:00:57.870 --> 00:01:02.280
But we can recognize his power every day.

21
00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:05.490
And that's one reason
I'm so excited to come

22
00:01:05.490 --> 00:01:07.170
to you on this program

23
00:01:07.170 --> 00:01:11.520
because the Bible says
that as we draw closer

24
00:01:11.520 --> 00:01:14.340
to Jesus coming, that we need

25
00:01:14.340 --> 00:01:16.860
to encourage one another daily.

26
00:01:16.860 --> 00:01:21.270
And I have a guest with
me. It's Heather Z.

27
00:01:21.270 --> 00:01:23.970
She is an unstoppable woman.

28
00:01:23.970 --> 00:01:27.330
I'll tell you one thing, and also she

29
00:01:27.330 --> 00:01:30.570
and her husband have an
amazing ministry together.

30
00:01:30.570 --> 00:01:34.410
And if you wanna go to josephz.com,

31
00:01:34.410 --> 00:01:37.230
find out about their ministry

32
00:01:37.230 --> 00:01:40.380
because he's an amazing prophet.

33
00:01:40.380 --> 00:01:42.450
She has gifts of healings,

34
00:01:42.450 --> 00:01:45.630
they have such an encouraging word

35
00:01:45.630 --> 00:01:48.330
to people building up people.

36
00:01:48.330 --> 00:01:51.240
And it's a ministry that you wanna be a part

37
00:01:51.240 --> 00:01:53.580
of in this time.

38
00:01:53.580 --> 00:01:56.490
And to encourage you to be Unstoppable.

39
00:01:56.490 --> 00:01:59.640
I want you to have my book, Unstoppable.

40
00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:03.870
And it says, Pressing through Fear.

41
00:02:03.870 --> 00:02:07.590
Have you ever had to press
through fear? Offense.

42
00:02:07.590 --> 00:02:10.710
Have you ever had to press through offense

43
00:02:10.710 --> 00:02:14.430
and negative opinions of others

44
00:02:14.430 --> 00:02:18.840
to complete your assignment
that God has given you?

45
00:02:18.840 --> 00:02:21.570
If we're gonna complete our assignment,

46
00:02:21.570 --> 00:02:25.290
if we're gonna be unstoppable,
we're probably gonna have

47
00:02:25.290 --> 00:02:27.930
to press through some of those things.

48
00:02:27.930 --> 00:02:32.310
Fear offense or negative opinions.

49
00:02:32.310 --> 00:02:35.760
Now, I'm so excited
about our program today

50
00:02:35.760 --> 00:02:37.800
because you're gonna be encouraged.

51
00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:41.970
You're gonna come away hearing
an amazing testimony of

52
00:02:41.970 --> 00:02:46.200
how my guest, Heather Z

53
00:02:46.200 --> 00:02:50.730
has been in death defying situations

54
00:02:50.730 --> 00:02:55.020
and come out smelling like a rose.

55
00:02:55.020 --> 00:02:59.290
Why is that? Because of the power of God

56
00:02:59.290 --> 00:03:01.570
that's within her.

57
00:03:01.570 --> 00:03:02.650
It's amazing.

58
00:03:02.650 --> 00:03:07.630
You don't wanna miss one minute of this program, so stay

59
00:03:07.630 --> 00:03:11.290
with me and I'm gonna be right back.

60
00:03:11.290 --> 00:03:15.190
<v ->It's time for big miracles
and changes in your life.</v>

61
00:03:16.150 --> 00:03:17.440
Join Denise Renner

62
00:03:17.440 --> 00:03:21.010
and dive into the study of God's word, which has great power

63
00:03:21.010 --> 00:03:25.060
to strengthen faith, inspire change, heal physically

64
00:03:25.060 --> 00:03:27.490
and spiritually, and most importantly,

65
00:03:27.490 --> 00:03:29.080
help you learn about the power

66
00:03:29.080 --> 00:03:30.820
of Christ Jesus living in you.

67
00:03:31.900 --> 00:03:33.910
It's time with Denise Renner.

68
00:03:36.670 --> 00:03:39.340
<v ->Well, as I told you, I
have my wonderful guest</v>

69
00:03:39.340 --> 00:03:41.050
with me, Heather Z.

70
00:03:41.050 --> 00:03:44.830
And I wanna introduce her to you. Heather,

71
00:03:44.830 --> 00:03:46.570
<v ->Thank you so much.</v>

72
00:03:46.570 --> 00:03:51.190
Thank you. Oh, we've been
having such a great time.

73
00:03:51.190 --> 00:03:55.750
And the Lord always been amazing, Heather, the fellowship

74
00:03:55.750 --> 00:04:00.190
and just the blessing of just
how the Lord has been present

75
00:04:00.190 --> 00:04:01.450
through these programs.

76
00:04:01.450 --> 00:04:04.150
<v ->Yes. - He has been present in the program.</v>

77
00:04:04.150 --> 00:04:05.950
Oh, absolutely. Just
hearing this very place.

78
00:04:05.950 --> 00:04:08.170
And I know at out there as well.

79
00:04:08.170 --> 00:04:10.930
<v ->I know. And I believe that
we're gonna hear from some</v>

80
00:04:10.930 --> 00:04:12.100
of our viewers

81
00:04:12.100 --> 00:04:13.100
<v ->Absolutely.</v>

82
00:04:13.100 --> 00:04:14.950
<v ->How God touched them in their bodies.</v>

83
00:04:14.950 --> 00:04:17.860
<v ->Yes. - Or how they forgave somebody.</v>

84
00:04:17.860 --> 00:04:21.370
I mean, these have been
powerful, powerful programs.

85
00:04:22.265 --> 00:04:23.920
Absolutely. And and
Heather, I just want them

86
00:04:23.920 --> 00:04:26.020
to know a little bit about you.

87
00:04:26.020 --> 00:04:29.680
<v ->Yes. - Because I call you - death defying Heather.</v>

88
00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:32.800
And And I know that.

89
00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:35.320
I know that it's the
power of God in you. Yes.

90
00:04:35.320 --> 00:04:38.950
And I know that nowadays we have

91
00:04:38.950 --> 00:04:41.680
these sports called extreme sports.

92
00:04:41.680 --> 00:04:43.960
<v ->Yes. - And I've seen some of those people</v>

93
00:04:43.960 --> 00:04:47.260
and they call themselves death defiant.

94
00:04:47.260 --> 00:04:51.460
But the death defying
about you is the power

95
00:04:51.460 --> 00:04:53.170
of God in you.

96
00:04:53.170 --> 00:04:56.320
And so when she was 12 years old,

97
00:04:56.320 --> 00:04:58.330
I just wanna give a real short testimony.

98
00:04:58.330 --> 00:05:02.560
When she was 12 years
old, she had an injury

99
00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:04.900
and she broke her neck.

100
00:05:04.900 --> 00:05:07.810
It was a C-1 in your vertebrae,

101
00:05:07.810 --> 00:05:12.810
and if you break that,
you are going to die.

102
00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:14.890
And so she did.

103
00:05:14.890 --> 00:05:19.060
She died on the table and
she watched, she came up

104
00:05:19.060 --> 00:05:22.420
and she saw her body there
and she went to Heaven.

105
00:05:22.420 --> 00:05:24.670
And Heather, what did
Jesus say to you when,

106
00:05:24.670 --> 00:05:26.200
when you went to heaven?

107
00:05:26.200 --> 00:05:30.520
<v ->Well, as I was sitting in
the very hands, his hands,</v>

108
00:05:30.520 --> 00:05:33.190
he and his face was so brilliant,

109
00:05:33.190 --> 00:05:35.950
I couldn't see his face,
but only here and down.

110
00:05:35.950 --> 00:05:40.360
He just said, Heather, I have
many assignments for you,

111
00:05:41.380 --> 00:05:43.900
and I will come to you again

112
00:05:43.900 --> 00:05:48.640
and remind you of this
time throughout your life

113
00:05:48.640 --> 00:05:49.750
of the assignments.

114
00:05:49.750 --> 00:05:53.350
But I'll remind you that what
he said to me at the very end

115
00:05:53.350 --> 00:05:56.020
before I left, he said,
Heather, don't worry.

116
00:05:56.020 --> 00:06:01.010
Everything's gonna be okay.
I have you in my hands.

117
00:06:01.010 --> 00:06:04.490
And so as he reminded me of that, I had several experiences

118
00:06:04.490 --> 00:06:08.570
that were very difficult,
but every time he came to me

119
00:06:08.570 --> 00:06:12.260
and said, remember, I
have you in my hands.

120
00:06:12.260 --> 00:06:16.310
<v ->And so I just bring you,
give you a little overview.</v>

121
00:06:16.310 --> 00:06:20.510
So she was pregnant with
her precious daughter

122
00:06:20.510 --> 00:06:22.700
and six months in the womb.

123
00:06:22.700 --> 00:06:25.220
That's right. And what happened there?

124
00:06:25.220 --> 00:06:28.070
<v ->Well, six months I was, you know,</v>

125
00:06:28.070 --> 00:06:30.680
when you're six months
pregnant, it's very active.

126
00:06:30.680 --> 00:06:31.700
You know, you notice all this,

127
00:06:31.700 --> 00:06:33.710
but for three days, first
baby, you're so excited first.

128
00:06:33.710 --> 00:06:37.310
Oh, very excited. Very excited.

129
00:06:37.310 --> 00:06:42.050
But then all of a sudden
she stopped kicking

130
00:06:42.050 --> 00:06:43.130
for three days.

131
00:06:43.130 --> 00:06:46.430
There was no movement
in the womb whatsoever.

132
00:06:46.430 --> 00:06:48.080
And so when we went in

133
00:06:48.080 --> 00:06:49.310
<v ->And you started having pain,</v>

134
00:06:49.310 --> 00:06:51.650
<v ->Oh, severe pain and no movement.</v>

135
00:06:51.650 --> 00:06:54.830
And, and they took pictures
and they said, go home

136
00:06:54.830 --> 00:06:55.910
and we'll let you know.

137
00:06:55.910 --> 00:06:57.110
But we went home

138
00:06:57.110 --> 00:06:59.330
and that's when Joseph said, I need

139
00:06:59.330 --> 00:07:02.060
to lay hands on your stomach

140
00:07:02.060 --> 00:07:03.740
and we need to pray for this baby.

141
00:07:03.740 --> 00:07:05.660
And he spoke with his words.

142
00:07:05.660 --> 00:07:09.410
We spoke a life over this
baby not knowing anything.

143
00:07:09.410 --> 00:07:11.780
'cause they didn't give
us any results yet,

144
00:07:11.780 --> 00:07:15.350
but spoke life over
this baby and said life

145
00:07:15.350 --> 00:07:17.090
and health and wholeness.

146
00:07:17.090 --> 00:07:21.230
And the very next morning I woke up there was kicking again.

147
00:07:21.230 --> 00:07:23.660
And it was early in the morning that I started feeling the,

148
00:07:23.660 --> 00:07:25.310
the flutters and the kicking.

149
00:07:25.310 --> 00:07:27.830
And then after that, our doctor called

150
00:07:27.830 --> 00:07:30.380
with a very terrible
report saying, I'm so sorry

151
00:07:30.380 --> 00:07:33.860
for your loss, that in the x-rays

152
00:07:33.860 --> 00:07:37.130
and in the ultrasound
it, the baby is dead.

153
00:07:37.130 --> 00:07:41.510
And I said, no, no, this baby's not dead.

154
00:07:41.510 --> 00:07:45.710
This baby is not dead. She
is kicking and she is alive.

155
00:07:46.610 --> 00:07:48.770
<v ->That's fantastic. And then</v>

156
00:07:48.770 --> 00:07:51.380
when you were 32 years old. Yes.

157
00:07:51.380 --> 00:07:53.330
<v ->Yes.</v>
<v ->Another thing came</v>

158
00:07:53.330 --> 00:07:55.130
to take your life. What happened?

159
00:07:55.130 --> 00:07:58.400
<v ->Oh, I ended up with double renal failure,</v>

160
00:07:58.400 --> 00:08:00.200
double kidney failure,

161
00:08:00.200 --> 00:08:02.990
where my kidneys completely shut down.

162
00:08:02.990 --> 00:08:07.490
I had to go on dialysis for two and a half years.

163
00:08:07.490 --> 00:08:11.960
And that's a very hopeless clinic every

164
00:08:11.960 --> 00:08:13.400
time you walk in.

165
00:08:13.400 --> 00:08:16.970
And so I didn't qualify
for a kidney transplant

166
00:08:16.970 --> 00:08:19.400
because my blood, I, when you're a woman

167
00:08:19.400 --> 00:08:22.190
and you have babies, you
build up all these antibodies

168
00:08:22.190 --> 00:08:23.600
that fight against,

169
00:08:23.600 --> 00:08:25.550
that's why they say
mothers never get sick.

170
00:08:25.550 --> 00:08:29.900
Ah. But my body would fight
against any anybody else's

171
00:08:31.010 --> 00:08:33.290
to match for a kidney transplant.

172
00:08:33.290 --> 00:08:35.000
So that was impossible.

173
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:37.370
And they said that I would be in dialysis

174
00:08:37.370 --> 00:08:38.960
till it took my life.

175
00:08:38.960 --> 00:08:41.540
But God, but Jesus. Yeah.

176
00:08:42.470 --> 00:08:46.400
And I became fully persuaded
in my heart by getting

177
00:08:46.400 --> 00:08:47.720
to know Jesus.

178
00:08:47.720 --> 00:08:50.630
Not just learning on the topic of healing,

179
00:08:50.630 --> 00:08:55.110
but really connecting with Jesus in my relationship so much

180
00:08:55.110 --> 00:08:59.280
that he became more real to me
than even the natural world.

181
00:08:59.280 --> 00:09:02.280
And then out of being in a place

182
00:09:02.280 --> 00:09:06.000
of fully persuading my heart
over what the Lord had for me,

183
00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:09.900
I received, I became compatible for a kidney transplant.

184
00:09:09.900 --> 00:09:11.130
<v ->Wow.</v>
<v ->And received that.</v>

185
00:09:11.130 --> 00:09:13.920
<v ->Oh, praise God.</v>
<v ->Amen.</v>

186
00:09:13.920 --> 00:09:16.440
<v ->And so now, thank you
Jesus. Now she's healthy. Yes.</v>

187
00:09:16.440 --> 00:09:19.140
You can see that she's beautiful, healthy,

188
00:09:19.140 --> 00:09:20.250
her ministry's doing

189
00:09:20.250 --> 00:09:21.960
<v ->Amazing. Yes.</v>

190
00:09:21.960 --> 00:09:26.220
<v ->And as we've been doing
these programs, I thought,</v>

191
00:09:26.220 --> 00:09:27.805
Lord, you know what you did.

192
00:09:29.105 --> 00:09:31.680
You and I've been through things too,

193
00:09:31.680 --> 00:09:33.930
and I'm sure you have to.

194
00:09:33.930 --> 00:09:37.050
And if you have been through something,

195
00:09:37.050 --> 00:09:40.020
then we're responsible for something.

196
00:09:40.020 --> 00:09:44.280
We are responsible to comfort
others with the comfort

197
00:09:44.280 --> 00:09:46.080
that we've been comforted with.

198
00:09:46.080 --> 00:09:48.030
I wanna read you a scripture. Come on.

199
00:09:48.030 --> 00:09:52.620
It's in 2 Corinthians 1:4,

200
00:09:52.620 --> 00:09:57.000
Who comforts us in all our tribulation,

201
00:09:57.870 --> 00:10:01.770
that we may be able to comfort those

202
00:10:01.770 --> 00:10:04.800
who are in any trouble

203
00:10:04.800 --> 00:10:06.990
with the comfort.

204
00:10:08.220 --> 00:10:11.760
That is the comfort that we were comforted

205
00:10:11.760 --> 00:10:13.800
by from God.

206
00:10:13.800 --> 00:10:18.360
The very comfort that
you've been comforted with.

207
00:10:18.360 --> 00:10:21.300
We are to take that experience

208
00:10:21.300 --> 00:10:24.090
and comfort others.

209
00:10:24.090 --> 00:10:28.950
And that's what we wanna do today, is encourage you that to

210
00:10:28.950 --> 00:10:30.960
that there's a future in front of you.

211
00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:33.270
And to keep going. And don't stop.

212
00:10:33.270 --> 00:10:37.710
Become an unstoppable person against fear

213
00:10:37.710 --> 00:10:41.400
and offense and, and
negative opinions of others.

214
00:10:41.400 --> 00:10:44.490
And offense. That's a really big one.

215
00:10:44.490 --> 00:10:46.950
And keep pushing through.

216
00:10:46.950 --> 00:10:51.690
And so Heather, let's encourage them.

217
00:10:51.690 --> 00:10:55.620
<v ->Yes.- By Isaiah 43:18.</v>

218
00:10:55.620 --> 00:10:57.660
Yes. I would love to do that.

219
00:10:57.660 --> 00:10:59.520
Isaiah 43 is,

220
00:10:59.520 --> 00:11:01.805
you're gonna get something out of the Word of God

221
00:11:01.805 --> 00:11:03.660
today. I am telling you

222
00:11:03.660 --> 00:11:06.090
that I believe the word
is gonna strike your heart

223
00:11:06.090 --> 00:11:09.750
and encourage you in such a
way that it will change you.

224
00:11:09.750 --> 00:11:12.630
Isaiah 43:18

225
00:11:12.630 --> 00:11:14.160
and 19 says,

226
00:11:14.160 --> 00:11:17.820
Do not remember the former things,

227
00:11:18.690 --> 00:11:23.040
nor consider the things of old. Behold,

228
00:11:23.040 --> 00:11:28.040
I will - It says, Denise, I
will, I will do a new thing.

229
00:11:28.110 --> 00:11:31.230
Shall you not know it?. Excuse me.

230
00:11:31.230 --> 00:11:33.240
I'll do a new thing now.

231
00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:35.460
It shall spring forth is what it says.

232
00:11:35.460 --> 00:11:37.290
<v ->Yes. Yes,</v>
<v ->I will. He'll do a new thing</v>

233
00:11:37.290 --> 00:11:39.480
and it will spring forth on you.

234
00:11:39.480 --> 00:11:41.910
<v ->Yes.</v>
<v ->Shall you not know it.</v>

235
00:11:41.910 --> 00:11:45.450
I will even make a road in the wilderness

236
00:11:45.450 --> 00:11:47.670
and rivers in the desert.

237
00:11:47.670 --> 00:11:52.410
I can tell you, he has made
roads in the wilderness

238
00:11:52.410 --> 00:11:57.410
for me and experiences
and rivers in the desert.

239
00:11:57.580 --> 00:12:01.000
And it's just amazing how he works.

240
00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:04.390
<v ->Now, Heather, that's,
that's impossible there.</v>

241
00:12:04.390 --> 00:12:06.730
There are not roads in the desert.

242
00:12:06.730 --> 00:12:08.800
<v ->No. - I've been in a desert before. No</v>

243
00:12:08.800 --> 00:12:10.375
<v ->Roads. Yes.</v>

244
00:12:10.375 --> 00:12:12.130
<v ->Just sand. Just heat.</v>
<v ->Yes.</v>

245
00:12:12.130 --> 00:12:15.190
<v ->Just hardship. Yes. No</v>
<v ->Roads. That's right.</v>

246
00:12:15.190 --> 00:12:18.285
<v ->There no way to get
out except the walking.</v>

247
00:12:18.285 --> 00:12:20.680
And then there are no
rivers in the desert.

248
00:12:20.680 --> 00:12:23.290
<v ->That's correct. - These are impossible situations.</v>

249
00:12:23.290 --> 00:12:26.230
Maybe you are in an impossible situation. Yes.

250
00:12:26.230 --> 00:12:29.237
But God is saying to
you, I'm gonna do a new

251
00:12:29.237 --> 00:12:30.153
thing. - Yes.

252
00:12:30.153 --> 00:12:31.930
<v ->Forget the past. Thank you, Jesus.</v>

253
00:12:31.930 --> 00:12:33.940
I'm gonna do a new thing. That's right.

254
00:12:33.940 --> 00:12:37.870
Take a hold of what is
in front of you. Yes.

255
00:12:37.870 --> 00:12:41.830
And in Philippians 3: oh,

256
00:12:41.830 --> 00:12:44.500
what an encouraging word.

257
00:12:44.500 --> 00:12:46.630
Philippians chapter 3:12.

258
00:12:46.630 --> 00:12:50.110
It says, not that I have
already attained. Yes.

259
00:12:50.110 --> 00:12:51.730
Now, first of all, I wanna tell you

260
00:12:51.730 --> 00:12:54.850
where the Apostle Paul is
when he wrote this under the

261
00:12:54.850 --> 00:12:56.560
inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

262
00:12:56.560 --> 00:13:01.560
He was in a horrible, horrible prison.

263
00:13:01.900 --> 00:13:06.070
And scholars say that this prison was

264
00:13:06.070 --> 00:13:10.690
where the sewage, so he's,
he's underneath this building.

265
00:13:10.690 --> 00:13:14.860
And the sewage from all of
those who lived above him,

266
00:13:14.860 --> 00:13:18.970
the sewage from their
bodies, would come down

267
00:13:18.970 --> 00:13:21.790
and go into this horrible prison

268
00:13:21.790 --> 00:13:24.190
where Paul was. Wow.

269
00:13:26.320 --> 00:13:30.910
That means he's standing
in sewage and he's writing.

270
00:13:30.910 --> 00:13:34.240
He's writing. Not that
I have already attained

271
00:13:35.230 --> 00:13:38.590
or I'm already perfect, but I press on.

272
00:13:38.590 --> 00:13:40.000
You see, he wasn't giving up,

273
00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:44.200
even though absolutely
death surrounds him.

274
00:13:44.200 --> 00:13:47.050
There were rats crawling
on that sewage men,

275
00:13:47.050 --> 00:13:49.690
other men were dying around him.

276
00:13:49.690 --> 00:13:51.640
And he had a decision to make.

277
00:13:51.640 --> 00:13:55.875
<v ->Yes. - Remember this series is called,</v>

278
00:13:55.875 --> 00:13:57.445
It's Not Over till It's Over.

279
00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:01.810
We gotta recognize, friend, the Power of God

280
00:14:01.810 --> 00:14:02.890
that's on the inside.

281
00:14:02.890 --> 00:14:06.550
And the Apostle Paul was
recognizing, you know

282
00:14:06.550 --> 00:14:09.880
what I'm getting out of this
prison, now look what it says.

283
00:14:11.170 --> 00:14:14.380
It says, but I press on that

284
00:14:14.380 --> 00:14:17.800
I ma lay a hold of that

285
00:14:17.800 --> 00:14:22.180
for which Christ Jesus has
also laid a hold of me.

286
00:14:22.180 --> 00:14:24.550
There is a purpose friend. Heather - Yeah -

287
00:14:24.550 --> 00:14:27.580
There is a purpose for our life

288
00:14:27.580 --> 00:14:31.450
that God has laid a hold of us for.

289
00:14:31.450 --> 00:14:35.980
And we are to lay a hold
of what he's called us to.

290
00:14:35.980 --> 00:14:37.750
<v ->Absolutely. Absolutely.</v>

291
00:14:37.750 --> 00:14:40.900
And just by being brave, even
just with your own mouth,

292
00:14:40.900 --> 00:14:43.145
to say, Lord, I'm gonna
lay a hold of this.

293
00:14:43.145 --> 00:14:45.280
<v ->Yes, that's right. - Even if you don't have all the</v>

294
00:14:45.280 --> 00:14:49.030
answers, I'm telling you, if you do the difficult,

295
00:14:49.030 --> 00:14:51.590
the Lord will do the impossible.

296
00:14:51.590 --> 00:14:54.590
That's a good, he will do the impossible.

297
00:14:54.590 --> 00:14:56.660
He will create rivers in the desert

298
00:14:56.660 --> 00:14:58.520
and roads in the wilderness for you.

299
00:14:58.520 --> 00:15:00.050
<v ->He will. You just take</v>

300
00:15:00.050 --> 00:15:01.310
that first step.

301
00:15:01.310 --> 00:15:02.780
<v ->That's right. - And I'm telling you,</v>

302
00:15:02.780 --> 00:15:04.190
he joins you right there.

303
00:15:04.190 --> 00:15:07.190
Absolutely. And you take that 2nd step,

304
00:15:07.190 --> 00:15:09.260
you know, think, oh God, thank you, Lord.

305
00:15:09.260 --> 00:15:12.140
You, you join me in that first step.

306
00:15:12.140 --> 00:15:15.770
I'm gonna take another step.
He'll join you right there.

307
00:15:15.770 --> 00:15:20.770
Oh Lord, you're here. I'm
gonna take a third step.

308
00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:22.910
Will you be there then?

309
00:15:22.910 --> 00:15:25.130
<v ->Yes.</v>
<v ->He'll be there.</v>

310
00:15:25.130 --> 00:15:28.580
And the apostle Paul, he was determined.

311
00:15:28.580 --> 00:15:30.320
Now listen to verse 13.

312
00:15:31.490 --> 00:15:36.440
And it says, brethren,
I do not count myself

313
00:15:36.440 --> 00:15:38.630
to apprehended;

314
00:15:38.630 --> 00:15:41.090
but one thing I do,

315
00:15:41.090 --> 00:15:45.530
forgetting those things which are behind

316
00:15:45.530 --> 00:15:47.630
and reaching, I'm reaching forth

317
00:15:47.630 --> 00:15:51.710
to those things which are ahead.

318
00:15:51.710 --> 00:15:56.510
You see, you can't grab, you can't meditate,

319
00:15:56.510 --> 00:16:01.160
think about, lean on your past

320
00:16:02.180 --> 00:16:04.190
and the horrible things about it,

321
00:16:04.190 --> 00:16:06.140
or even the great things about it,

322
00:16:06.140 --> 00:16:08.750
and reach forth at the same time.

323
00:16:09.710 --> 00:16:13.160
We are either, we're either in the past

324
00:16:13.160 --> 00:16:16.340
or we're in the future looking forward.

325
00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:21.230
The faith that you have is not passive.

326
00:16:22.280 --> 00:16:26.510
Faith is not passive. That's
right. Faith is active.

327
00:16:27.410 --> 00:16:31.220
And when you say, okay, I'm
gonna be like the Apostle Paul,

328
00:16:31.220 --> 00:16:33.410
I'm gonna take this encouragement

329
00:16:33.410 --> 00:16:36.590
that's coming across this
screen to me right now,

330
00:16:36.590 --> 00:16:39.830
and I am going to say, forget the past.

331
00:16:39.830 --> 00:16:41.510
Forget the past.

332
00:16:41.510 --> 00:16:46.510
I'm gonna an oppressed forward
God to what you have for me

333
00:16:46.520 --> 00:16:48.985
and friend, Heather I want you to say something in a minute.

334
00:16:48.985 --> 00:16:52.580
But Yeah. But the, the tragedy

335
00:16:53.480 --> 00:16:56.660
of those who stay in the past,

336
00:16:58.550 --> 00:17:01.250
they never take a hold of the future.

337
00:17:02.510 --> 00:17:05.150
You do not want that to be you.

338
00:17:05.150 --> 00:17:07.670
I don't want that to be me

339
00:17:07.670 --> 00:17:12.320
and Apostle Paul in the
language he's saying with all

340
00:17:12.320 --> 00:17:15.620
of my might, with all of my strength,

341
00:17:15.620 --> 00:17:20.620
I press: and it's a picture of like a runner.

342
00:17:20.840 --> 00:17:23.630
And he's running a race and
he wants to win that race.

343
00:17:23.630 --> 00:17:28.310
And his whole body is leaning forward

344
00:17:28.310 --> 00:17:30.080
to get to that prize.

345
00:17:30.080 --> 00:17:33.200
And that's what the
apostle Paul was saying.

346
00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:35.655
He's saying, I'm forgetting what's behind.

347
00:17:35.655 --> 00:17:38.270
I'm, I'm forgetting those who betrayed me.

348
00:17:38.270 --> 00:17:40.400
I'm forgetting those who lied about me.

349
00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:42.260
I'm forgetting about the emperor

350
00:17:42.260 --> 00:17:44.870
that put me in here and hates me.

351
00:17:44.870 --> 00:17:48.410
I am pressing forth to the future,

352
00:17:48.410 --> 00:17:50.580
the future I have with God.

353
00:17:52.740 --> 00:17:54.960
That's the same power that you

354
00:17:54.960 --> 00:17:58.650
and I have in us, is the same power

355
00:17:58.650 --> 00:18:01.230
that the Apostle Paul
was speaking about. Amen.

356
00:18:02.100 --> 00:18:05.250
<v ->That's true. It's the same
power that resides on the</v>

357
00:18:05.250 --> 00:18:06.990
inside, pressing forward. Oh,

358
00:18:06.990 --> 00:18:08.130
<v ->That's the right, that's true.</v>

359
00:18:08.130 --> 00:18:09.900
<v ->Pressing forward. That</v>
<v ->Is true.</v>

360
00:18:09.900 --> 00:18:12.540
<v ->And it's just that
faith act of believing God</v>

361
00:18:12.540 --> 00:18:16.085
and taking his word above
your current circumstances.

362
00:18:16.085 --> 00:18:18.810
<v ->Oh, above your circumstances, above your feelings,</v>

363
00:18:18.810 --> 00:18:19.950
above your thoughts.

364
00:18:19.950 --> 00:18:21.840
<v ->Yes. Absolutely.</v>

365
00:18:21.840 --> 00:18:26.010
And, and you just do that
by the washing of the water

366
00:18:26.010 --> 00:18:28.325
of the word to help renew your mind.

367
00:18:28.325 --> 00:18:31.110
That's good. That's good. Or you get, you know, we have,

368
00:18:31.110 --> 00:18:33.480
we have a saying, the best form

369
00:18:33.480 --> 00:18:37.890
of deliverance is ongoing good teaching

370
00:18:37.890 --> 00:18:40.830
where you have mature teachers

371
00:18:40.830 --> 00:18:44.820
and believers like you're doing now by listening to Denise

372
00:18:44.820 --> 00:18:46.980
to renew your mind, renew your heart,

373
00:18:46.980 --> 00:18:48.120
getting those materials

374
00:18:48.120 --> 00:18:50.760
and resources alongside, of
course, with the word of God,

375
00:18:50.760 --> 00:18:52.350
but getting Unstoppable.

376
00:18:52.350 --> 00:18:53.790
That's gonna help renew your mind

377
00:18:53.790 --> 00:18:55.500
to not dwell on the things of the past,

378
00:18:55.500 --> 00:18:57.930
but to put press forward, to be mature.

379
00:18:57.930 --> 00:19:01.140
It goes on to say of how of in verse 15,

380
00:19:01.140 --> 00:19:04.695
that a mature person is
what it talks about, begins

381
00:19:04.695 --> 00:19:08.475
to press forward and is able
to begin to press forward.

382
00:19:08.475 --> 00:19:10.770
And you can do that just
by asking for the help

383
00:19:10.770 --> 00:19:14.850
of the Holy Spirit and
say, Lord, help me in this.

384
00:19:14.850 --> 00:19:18.930
And he absolutely will
help you. Absolutely.

385
00:19:18.930 --> 00:19:21.150
God wants to be believed.

386
00:19:22.320 --> 00:19:24.690
He wants to be believed.

387
00:19:24.690 --> 00:19:28.020
And when you believe him in your heart

388
00:19:28.020 --> 00:19:30.570
and you become fully
persuaded in your heart

389
00:19:30.570 --> 00:19:31.685
of these things,

390
00:19:31.685 --> 00:19:33.420
<v ->It opens, - It opens so</v>

391
00:19:33.420 --> 00:19:34.420
much.

392
00:19:34.420 --> 00:19:36.270
It opens heaven to work in your life.

393
00:19:36.270 --> 00:19:40.200
<v ->It does. - And if you
acknowledge these great things</v>

394
00:19:40.200 --> 00:19:42.510
inside of you, I wanna
read to you a scripture.

395
00:19:42.510 --> 00:19:45.840
Yes. 'cause you say,
well, I'm not so powerful.

396
00:19:45.840 --> 00:19:48.690
Well, and and we have this false humility.

397
00:19:48.690 --> 00:19:52.260
Why am I calling it false humility? I'll tell you why.

398
00:19:52.260 --> 00:19:55.560
Because in Philemon 1:6,

399
00:19:55.560 --> 00:19:59.220
it says that the sharing of your faith

400
00:20:00.750 --> 00:20:03.270
may become effective

401
00:20:03.270 --> 00:20:06.480
by the acknowledgement

402
00:20:06.480 --> 00:20:10.800
of every good thing that is in you

403
00:20:10.800 --> 00:20:13.200
by Christ Jesus.

404
00:20:13.200 --> 00:20:18.200
It is the will of God that we acknowledge

405
00:20:18.450 --> 00:20:22.920
the good that's in us by Christ Jesus.

406
00:20:24.060 --> 00:20:28.020
You know, I'm speaking about the false humility.

407
00:20:28.020 --> 00:20:31.350
When we say, someone says, oh, I like your hair.

408
00:20:31.350 --> 00:20:34.590
Oh, well, it looks terrible.
I tried, but it's terrible.

409
00:20:34.590 --> 00:20:39.360
Oh, I like that shirt. Oh, it's 25 years old.

410
00:20:39.360 --> 00:20:41.700
It's got a hole in it right
here. You can't see it.

411
00:20:41.700 --> 00:20:45.630
But, and we don't even
receive a compliment

412
00:20:47.440 --> 00:20:52.440
because of some, we think
we have to put ourself down

413
00:20:52.600 --> 00:20:54.100
to be humble.

414
00:20:54.100 --> 00:20:56.620
That's wrong. The Bible's saying

415
00:20:56.620 --> 00:20:57.620
<v ->That's right -</v>

416
00:20:57.620 --> 00:20:59.290
<v ->Acknowledge. That's right.</v>

417
00:20:59.290 --> 00:21:03.010
Acknowledge what's in you by Christ Jesus.

418
00:21:03.010 --> 00:21:05.440
That's actually being humble

419
00:21:05.440 --> 00:21:09.310
because it's in you by Christ Jesus.

420
00:21:09.310 --> 00:21:13.750
You are like, oh, I know.
Isn't he magnificent in me?

421
00:21:13.750 --> 00:21:16.450
Oh my goodness. He is so great.

422
00:21:16.450 --> 00:21:18.190
And I wanna give you an example.

423
00:21:18.190 --> 00:21:21.550
And Heather, the Lord showed
me this a few years ago when

424
00:21:21.550 --> 00:21:22.990
God made the world,

425
00:21:24.820 --> 00:21:29.050
he didn't say, and I did this on the 1st day

426
00:21:29.050 --> 00:21:30.400
and I did this on the 2nd day.

427
00:21:31.425 --> 00:21:33.435
And, and that was it.

428
00:21:34.510 --> 00:21:38.620
It says, and it was very good.

429
00:21:38.620 --> 00:21:42.586
<v ->Yes. - He acknowledged that what he did</v>

430
00:21:42.586 --> 00:21:43.586
was good, was good.

431
00:21:43.586 --> 00:21:45.100
<v ->Yeah.</v>
<v ->He's our example.</v>

432
00:21:45.100 --> 00:21:49.930
<v ->Absolutely. - So when you conquer something,</v>

433
00:21:49.930 --> 00:21:51.430
maybe you've lost weight.

434
00:21:51.430 --> 00:21:53.650
Maybe you're starting to exercise.

435
00:21:53.650 --> 00:21:56.260
Maybe you made an amazing meal.

436
00:21:56.260 --> 00:21:59.710
Maybe, maybe you wrote an amazing paper.

437
00:21:59.710 --> 00:22:02.530
Maybe you did something,
you spoke to somebody

438
00:22:02.530 --> 00:22:06.250
and you did it out of fear
and you just press through.

439
00:22:06.250 --> 00:22:08.740
We'll then say, that was good.

440
00:22:10.210 --> 00:22:14.500
That was good because that's God.

441
00:22:14.500 --> 00:22:17.775
God himself said that was very good.

442
00:22:17.775 --> 00:22:21.130
And the apostle Paul is saying to Philemon,

443
00:22:21.130 --> 00:22:22.570
acknowledge

444
00:22:22.570 --> 00:22:25.180
the good that's in you.

445
00:22:26.620 --> 00:22:29.470
<v ->That's amazing. The Lord just, he knows</v>

446
00:22:29.470 --> 00:22:32.695
what he's deposited on the inside of us.

447
00:22:32.695 --> 00:22:35.695
He wants us to come into
an agreement. That's right.

448
00:22:35.695 --> 00:22:38.315
That's true. He wants us to
come into an agreement with

449
00:22:38.315 --> 00:22:40.935
what he has already placed
on the inside of us.

450
00:22:40.935 --> 00:22:42.700
That's right. And the
more you read the word

451
00:22:42.700 --> 00:22:45.460
and like that mirror that's
in front of your face.

452
00:22:45.460 --> 00:22:48.160
<v ->Yes. Yes. - You get to know yourself in confidence</v>

453
00:22:48.160 --> 00:22:50.650
and you build a track record
as you're walking along

454
00:22:50.650 --> 00:22:53.110
with the Lord that you can, he's confident

455
00:22:53.110 --> 00:22:55.960
and you, you need to be
confident in yourself.

456
00:22:55.960 --> 00:22:58.750
That's right. And you
just walk it out by faith

457
00:22:58.750 --> 00:23:00.190
and believe and trust God.

458
00:23:00.190 --> 00:23:03.250
Before you know it, you're
walking in full maturity,

459
00:23:03.250 --> 00:23:05.980
in confidence in the
Lord, in humility, knowing

460
00:23:05.980 --> 00:23:09.580
that it is not me, but
it is Christ Jesus in me.

461
00:23:09.580 --> 00:23:12.430
<v ->I love that. That he's confident in you.</v>

462
00:23:12.430 --> 00:23:15.130
Why is he confident? Because he's in you.

463
00:23:15.130 --> 00:23:17.080
That's right. He is in

464
00:23:17.080 --> 00:23:18.080
you.

465
00:23:18.080 --> 00:23:18.913
He knows what he's placed in you.

466
00:23:18.913 --> 00:23:22.210
<v ->One third of you is at least
wall to wall. Holy Ghost.</v>

467
00:23:22.210 --> 00:23:25.295
The Holy Spirit is in your spirit,

468
00:23:25.295 --> 00:23:29.380
<v ->And - Your spirit is absolutely perfect and friend,</v>

469
00:23:29.380 --> 00:23:34.240

00:25:53.750 --> 00:25:57.680
As Philemon says, says, acknowledge every

in you by Christ Jesus.

526
00:26:05.990 --> 00:26:10.790
Father, we thank you for your Holy Spirit

that's working with every person that's listening right now

Yes. The Holy Spirit

530
00:26:23.450 --> 00:26:27.830
and the good things,
the gifts, the callings,

531
00:26:27.830 --> 00:26:32.570
the talents that you
have put inside of them,

532
00:26:32.570 --> 00:26:37.100
not to be ashamed of
them, not to dismiss them,

533
00:26:37.100 --> 00:26:41.930
but to embrace them
because you are the giver

534
00:26:41.930 --> 00:26:44.040
and you placed them there.

535
00:26:44.040 --> 00:26:49.040

I repent of my sin and receive you as my Savior

548
00:27:29.490 --> 00:27:34.290
and Lord. Wash away my sin
and make me completely new.

549
00:27:34.290 --> 00:27:36.450
I thank you that my sin is removed

550
00:27:36.450 --> 00:27:40.800
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.

551
00:27:40.800 --> 00:27:45.420
I faithfully promise that
I will serve you as my Lord

552
00:27:45.420 --> 00:27:47.520
for the rest of my life.
