1
00:00:00,266 --> 00:00:05,000
my gosh what a great morning huh anybody else feel that

2
00:00:07,466 --> 00:00:09,166
fire I was in the middle of it

3
00:00:09,166 --> 00:00:13,200
was just thinking of the Bill Johnson's quote that says

4
00:00:13,700 --> 00:00:14,900
he comes where he's wanted

5
00:00:14,900 --> 00:00:16,566
and he stays where he's honored

6
00:00:18,233 --> 00:00:19,700
and uh felt like we

7
00:00:19,700 --> 00:00:22,100
we did that this morning we're hungry

8
00:00:22,100 --> 00:00:24,366
and when he showed up we just made room for him

9
00:00:24,466 --> 00:00:26,033
and uh man

10
00:00:26,033 --> 00:00:27,733
you know in those moments

11
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:29,200
um

12
00:00:29,500 --> 00:00:30,800
I just want to encourage us

13
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,500
never underestimate the power of an encounter

14
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,533
cause where he shows up

15
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:38,266
like those are the

16
00:00:38,266 --> 00:00:41,133
can be the life transforming moments

17
00:00:41,466 --> 00:00:44,000
that literally change the trajectory of our life

18
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,000
so when these we we

19
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,033
we get those moments I wanna just encourage us

20
00:00:48,033 --> 00:00:50,100
like we embrace them

21
00:00:51,466 --> 00:00:53,600
get hungry you can see someone going

22
00:00:53,833 --> 00:00:55,300
something get their hands on you like

23
00:00:55,300 --> 00:00:56,566
I want I want some of that

24
00:00:56,566 --> 00:00:59,066
you know so we must make room for that

25
00:00:59,066 --> 00:01:00,966
and never underestimate what the Lord can do

26
00:01:00,966 --> 00:01:03,400
in the middle of it so okay

27
00:01:03,566 --> 00:01:05,966
well we are in our ghost series

28
00:01:07,066 --> 00:01:08,266
you guys been going

29
00:01:11,233 --> 00:01:13,033
I'm trying out a new little thing here

30
00:01:13,033 --> 00:01:13,900
we'll see how it goes

31
00:01:13,900 --> 00:01:17,300
so this is how many were at the prophetic conference

32
00:01:17,866 --> 00:01:19,500
you guys you remember how Chris we

33
00:01:19,500 --> 00:01:21,200
he kept trying to ask we had books

34
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:22,500
we're like finding all kinds of things

35
00:01:22,500 --> 00:01:25,300
so we got this little handy dandy gadget

36
00:01:25,300 --> 00:01:27,066
we'll see how it goes okay

37
00:01:27,066 --> 00:01:30,000
so a little short recap is um

38
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,033
the Lord uh what we've been talking about

39
00:01:32,033 --> 00:01:33,233
we started a couple weeks ago

40
00:01:33,233 --> 00:01:35,066
is he's restoring the

41
00:01:35,266 --> 00:01:39,066
the dream that he had from the beginning in the garden

42
00:01:39,066 --> 00:01:41,133
that this was what he did through Jesus

43
00:01:41,266 --> 00:01:43,633
it was more than just getting us into heaven

44
00:01:43,633 --> 00:01:45,266
it was getting heaven into us

45
00:01:45,266 --> 00:01:48,700
amen and he's restoring the dream that he had

46
00:01:48,700 --> 00:01:52,100
that in his wild imagination and creation

47
00:01:52,100 --> 00:01:54,166
he created earth the heavens

48
00:01:54,166 --> 00:01:56,366
everything we see he created mankind

49
00:01:56,366 --> 00:01:57,966
he created us to steward it

50
00:01:57,966 --> 00:02:01,700
to inhabit it to be fruitful and multiply

51
00:02:01,700 --> 00:02:04,966
to expand the garden of Eden throughout the globe

52
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,866
not just in multiplying in kids and families

53
00:02:09,866 --> 00:02:12,966
but also multiplying everything that the garden had

54
00:02:12,966 --> 00:02:14,300
throughout the rest of the globe

55
00:02:14,300 --> 00:02:15,000
and so

56
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,000
and then we saw on Matthew 6 where he restored that in

57
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,266
into prayer right when he says hey

58
00:02:20,266 --> 00:02:22,433
if you pray a prayer pray this prayer

59
00:02:22,433 --> 00:02:25,500
that on when that god his kingdom would come

60
00:02:25,500 --> 00:02:28,266
his will would be done on the earth

61
00:02:28,266 --> 00:02:30,633
just as it is in heaven and so

62
00:02:30,633 --> 00:02:31,366
we talked about

63
00:02:31,366 --> 00:02:35,900
how the cross really reconciled the original plan

64
00:02:35,900 --> 00:02:37,366
which was that we would walk and talk

65
00:02:37,366 --> 00:02:38,900
in the cool of the day with him

66
00:02:38,900 --> 00:02:40,500
that we become one with him

67
00:02:40,500 --> 00:02:42,966
and that we would be doing the original mandate

68
00:02:43,033 --> 00:02:45,600
so that's just a real quick recap

69
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,000
um and then let's see what else

70
00:02:48,633 --> 00:02:49,300
you know I

71
00:02:49,300 --> 00:02:51,400
I LED this off on Easter Sunday

72
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,000
I told you I was gonna start in Genesis

73
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,366
and end in revelation

74
00:02:54,966 --> 00:02:57,200
and I didn't get to my revelation verse

75
00:02:57,300 --> 00:02:58,766
so I'm gonna get to it today

76
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,000
uh Revelation 11:15

77
00:03:02,233 --> 00:03:04,266
when they open the Seventh Seal

78
00:03:04,433 --> 00:03:05,366
it says now

79
00:03:05,366 --> 00:03:06,966
the kingdom of this world

80
00:03:07,066 --> 00:03:09,300
has now become the kingdom of our god

81
00:03:09,300 --> 00:03:11,333
and he shall reign forever and ever

82
00:03:12,766 --> 00:03:13,233
the the

83
00:03:13,233 --> 00:03:15,500
the end of the story is that the kingdom of this world

84
00:03:15,500 --> 00:03:17,300
would become the kingdom of our god

85
00:03:17,866 --> 00:03:20,466
and we talked about how when Jesus what

86
00:03:20,466 --> 00:03:22,366
rose in the morning on Easter Sunday

87
00:03:22,366 --> 00:03:23,600
but in the evening he said

88
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:24,900
now go therefore

89
00:03:25,100 --> 00:03:27,200
make disciples of all nations and teach them in

90
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,266
in the ways that I have taught you

91
00:03:30,766 --> 00:03:32,800
that word disciple means learner

92
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,900
that's the Greek word I'm going real quick recap

93
00:03:35,900 --> 00:03:37,166
you guys good with this

94
00:03:37,366 --> 00:03:39,433
so that word disciple means learner

95
00:03:39,433 --> 00:03:41,400
make learners of all nations

96
00:03:43,500 --> 00:03:44,700
what are nations

97
00:03:46,166 --> 00:03:47,700
nations are people groups

98
00:03:49,666 --> 00:03:51,966
make learners of all people groups

99
00:03:53,566 --> 00:03:56,766
well how do we make them to learn

100
00:03:56,766 --> 00:03:58,033
how do we get them to learn

101
00:03:58,033 --> 00:03:59,600
how do we make them want to learn

102
00:04:00,100 --> 00:04:02,133
I'm glad you asked we're gonna talk about that today

103
00:04:04,466 --> 00:04:07,466
I wanna talk about how you have a unique

104
00:04:07,466 --> 00:04:09,500
individual expression

105
00:04:11,500 --> 00:04:15,700
that is meant to be how god puts himself on display

106
00:04:16,433 --> 00:04:18,000
and is part of the assignment

107
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,433
and you walking out what it looks like to be a

108
00:04:20,433 --> 00:04:22,500
restoring the earth

109
00:04:23,166 --> 00:04:24,666
it's a big big assignment

110
00:04:24,666 --> 00:04:25,700
it's a big call

111
00:04:26,233 --> 00:04:27,400
just a little bit

112
00:04:28,366 --> 00:04:30,466
all creation is waiting it says in Romans 8

113
00:04:30,466 --> 00:04:31,300
by the way

114
00:04:31,966 --> 00:04:33,266
for us to what

115
00:04:34,066 --> 00:04:36,066
my version is figure it out

116
00:04:36,900 --> 00:04:38,433
they're waiting for us to figure it out

117
00:04:38,433 --> 00:04:40,533
waiting for the sons of god to be revealed

118
00:04:43,166 --> 00:04:45,166
so Ephesians 3:10

119
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,033
you have to go with me on this

120
00:04:48,033 --> 00:04:50,400
it's gonna be a little bit meaty today

121
00:04:50,633 --> 00:04:53,733
and you can go back and do some study if you'd like

122
00:04:59,466 --> 00:05:02,100
Ephesians 3:10 great to ask

123
00:05:03,700 --> 00:05:05,300
Ephesians 3:10

124
00:05:05,866 --> 00:05:07,933
I'm gonna start with the 8

125
00:05:08,266 --> 00:05:10,200
then Paul's talking to the Ephesians

126
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,466
and he's making some some pretty big statements here

127
00:05:14,100 --> 00:05:14,800
Paul says hey

128
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,566
to me the very least of all the saints

129
00:05:17,566 --> 00:05:20,066
this Grace was given to preach to the Gentiles

130
00:05:20,066 --> 00:05:22,266
the unfathomable riches of Christ

131
00:05:22,766 --> 00:05:24,000
and to bring to light

132
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,466
what is the administration of the mystery

133
00:05:26,466 --> 00:05:28,900
which for ages has been hidden in god

134
00:05:28,900 --> 00:05:30,400
who created all things

135
00:05:30,500 --> 00:05:32,433
so that the manifold wisdom of god

136
00:05:32,433 --> 00:05:34,233
might now be made known through the church

137
00:05:34,233 --> 00:05:36,666
to the rulers and authorities in heavenly places

138
00:05:37,433 --> 00:05:39,366
you got it all we got that yeah

139
00:05:40,300 --> 00:05:43,300
there's a lot said there it's pretty meaty

140
00:05:44,300 --> 00:05:45,366
what's he saying to me

141
00:05:45,366 --> 00:05:46,666
the very least of all the saints

142
00:05:46,666 --> 00:05:48,766
this Grace was given to preach to the Gentiles

143
00:05:48,766 --> 00:05:50,533
the unfathomable riches of Christ

144
00:05:50,633 --> 00:05:51,600
and to bring to light

145
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,800
what is the administration of the mystery

146
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:55,366
which for ages has been hidden in god

147
00:05:55,366 --> 00:05:56,333
what's the mystery

148
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,933
Christ in you the hope of glory

149
00:06:01,166 --> 00:06:02,466
he says this in another passage

150
00:06:02,466 --> 00:06:04,566
that the mystery is Christ in you

151
00:06:04,566 --> 00:06:05,566
the hope of glory

152
00:06:05,566 --> 00:06:07,666
if we understand where he's speaking from

153
00:06:07,666 --> 00:06:09,566
the idea that you could get saved

154
00:06:09,566 --> 00:06:11,766
and Christ could come and live in your heart

155
00:06:12,233 --> 00:06:14,933
was a new concept it didn't exist

156
00:06:15,700 --> 00:06:18,300
this is the whole point of what Jesus did

157
00:06:18,300 --> 00:06:21,266
in reconciling mankind back to himself

158
00:06:21,266 --> 00:06:23,066
and making it possible to there

159
00:06:23,066 --> 00:06:23,900
there be therefore

160
00:06:23,900 --> 00:06:26,066
no separation by the veil

161
00:06:26,066 --> 00:06:28,100
if you will that there's no separation

162
00:06:28,100 --> 00:06:30,466
but we're now joined back with him

163
00:06:30,466 --> 00:06:33,600
the idea that Christ in us is the hope of glory

164
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,900
the idea of Christ in us is possible

165
00:06:35,900 --> 00:06:37,300
is brand new and now

166
00:06:37,300 --> 00:06:40,033
Paul's mission is to bring to light

167
00:06:40,033 --> 00:06:41,966
what is the administration

168
00:06:41,966 --> 00:06:45,833
which is the governing or the distribution of it of to

169
00:06:45,833 --> 00:06:47,933
of this mystery to who

170
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:49,466
the Gentiles

171
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,800
that's brand new they were never

172
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,933
they were excluded up into this point

173
00:06:55,300 --> 00:06:59,233
so it's brand new that they have the option to not only

174
00:06:59,233 --> 00:06:59,633
uh uh

175
00:06:59,633 --> 00:07:02,433
be included but also included in this new concept

176
00:07:02,433 --> 00:07:04,000
which is Christ can live in you

177
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,966
yeah that's right so

178
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:09,266
Paul says this

179
00:07:09,266 --> 00:07:11,366
to bring to light what is the administration the

180
00:07:11,366 --> 00:07:13,966
the distribution or the governing of the mystery

181
00:07:13,966 --> 00:07:16,066
which for ages has been hidden in god

182
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,533
who created all things why

183
00:07:20,500 --> 00:07:22,500
why is he why is this the thing

184
00:07:22,500 --> 00:07:24,166
why is the administration

185
00:07:24,266 --> 00:07:28,166
of the distribution of the Christ in you

186
00:07:28,166 --> 00:07:30,666
the hope of glory being available to the

187
00:07:30,666 --> 00:07:33,100
the Gentiles for what

188
00:07:33,100 --> 00:07:35,300
what's this unto so that we can go to heaven

189
00:07:36,433 --> 00:07:37,633
I'm giving you trick questions

190
00:07:37,633 --> 00:07:40,100
we talked about this on the first session right

191
00:07:40,100 --> 00:07:40,866
what what is it

192
00:07:40,866 --> 00:07:41,866
so that uh uh

193
00:07:42,033 --> 00:07:44,933
we can wait until he comes back no

194
00:07:46,766 --> 00:07:47,700
so that we can no

195
00:07:47,700 --> 00:07:50,233
there's more so what's he say here

196
00:07:50,233 --> 00:07:53,166
so that the manifold wisdom of god

197
00:07:53,166 --> 00:07:55,700
might now be made known through the church

198
00:07:56,300 --> 00:07:58,333
what is the manifold wisdom of god

199
00:07:58,866 --> 00:08:00,966
manifold another word is minifold

200
00:08:00,966 --> 00:08:02,233
multicolored multi

201
00:08:02,233 --> 00:08:07,000
varied wisdom of god the different facets

202
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:08,566
let's use the word facet to get like

203
00:08:08,566 --> 00:08:09,433
if you look at a diamond

204
00:08:09,433 --> 00:08:11,266
and it has different facets on it

205
00:08:11,266 --> 00:08:12,633
it's many varied

206
00:08:12,633 --> 00:08:14,766
it's many like different

207
00:08:15,100 --> 00:08:18,200
the multifaceted wisdom of god

208
00:08:18,500 --> 00:08:22,100
the different facets of who he is and how he is

209
00:08:23,100 --> 00:08:24,366
where is it being made known

210
00:08:24,366 --> 00:08:27,900
through the church who's the church

211
00:08:28,666 --> 00:08:31,633
we are so it's saying that Christ in you

212
00:08:31,633 --> 00:08:34,766
the hope of glory is so that his multifaceted wisdom

213
00:08:34,766 --> 00:08:36,700
would be revealed through you

214
00:08:36,700 --> 00:08:37,500
that's right

215
00:08:37,966 --> 00:08:38,900
that's right this is what it's

216
00:08:38,900 --> 00:08:42,400
unto his multifaceted like

217
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,366
the very different uh uh

218
00:08:44,366 --> 00:08:46,066
aspects and wisdom of god

219
00:08:46,066 --> 00:08:48,300
would be made known through the church

220
00:08:48,300 --> 00:08:50,966
imagine every person in the room a facet

221
00:08:51,633 --> 00:08:53,033
we go back to the diamond

222
00:08:53,033 --> 00:08:55,100
and you got different facets on the diamond

223
00:08:55,100 --> 00:08:57,266
every room every person in this room

224
00:08:57,266 --> 00:08:58,100
a facet

225
00:08:58,433 --> 00:09:02,900
revealing a unique expression of the wisdom of god

226
00:09:05,300 --> 00:09:07,400
now now trip on this

227
00:09:09,300 --> 00:09:11,666
so that the manifold wisdom of god may now be named

228
00:09:11,666 --> 00:09:12,833
made known through the church

229
00:09:12,833 --> 00:09:16,200
to who to the rulers and the authorities

230
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:17,766
in the heavenly places

231
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,133
to the spirit realm

232
00:09:22,366 --> 00:09:24,000
to the principalities

233
00:09:24,466 --> 00:09:27,866
to the things that are currently at this time

234
00:09:27,866 --> 00:09:29,400
were in control

235
00:09:29,833 --> 00:09:33,033
until Jesus took the keys of hell and death back

236
00:09:33,033 --> 00:09:34,033
and authority back

237
00:09:34,033 --> 00:09:35,600
this is what he said at the end of the day right

238
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,100
all authority has been given to me

239
00:09:37,100 --> 00:09:38,533
now go therefore

240
00:09:39,433 --> 00:09:41,400
so at this time

241
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,166
principalities carry power and authority

242
00:09:43,166 --> 00:09:44,700
and then how do they get the power and authority

243
00:09:44,700 --> 00:09:45,966
how does the enemy get it

244
00:09:47,366 --> 00:09:48,366
it go back to Adam and Eve

245
00:09:48,366 --> 00:09:50,400
he gives you a lie and we buy into it

246
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:51,633
and we forfeit our authority

247
00:09:51,633 --> 00:09:52,466
and we give it over

248
00:09:52,466 --> 00:09:54,200
and we're the ones who actually have the authority

249
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:55,966
and now we've given it to the enemy

250
00:09:55,966 --> 00:09:57,500
who now is able to reign

251
00:09:59,566 --> 00:10:01,600
so how do we not do that

252
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,966
don't buy in the lies that's right amen

253
00:10:04,966 --> 00:10:06,466
we need a renewed mind

254
00:10:06,866 --> 00:10:08,733
we need to take on the mind of Christ

255
00:10:09,166 --> 00:10:10,900
be transformed by the renewing of your mind

256
00:10:10,900 --> 00:10:12,266
so that you may prove

257
00:10:12,266 --> 00:10:14,366
what the good and perfect will of god is

258
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:17,933
so how does this all tie in

259
00:10:18,833 --> 00:10:20,833
well because the manifold wisdom of god

260
00:10:20,833 --> 00:10:22,366
is meant to be made known

261
00:10:22,366 --> 00:10:24,266
through you to the rulers

262
00:10:24,266 --> 00:10:25,900
rulers in heavenly places

263
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:27,700
now check this out

264
00:10:28,166 --> 00:10:30,600
this was in accordance with the eternal purpose

265
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,700
which he carried out in Christ Jesus our Lord

266
00:10:35,033 --> 00:10:36,200
did you guys hear that

267
00:10:36,966 --> 00:10:38,566
I don't know I get tripped out on this

268
00:10:38,566 --> 00:10:40,100
I think I think this is exciting

269
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,666
this was in accordance with the eternal purpose

270
00:10:42,666 --> 00:10:44,500
that he sent Jesus to the cross

271
00:10:47,233 --> 00:10:48,033
okay I don't know

272
00:10:48,033 --> 00:10:49,333
maybe I gotta go over here

273
00:10:51,300 --> 00:10:53,000
one of the reasons he let me say it this way

274
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:54,900
one of the reasons he sent Jesus to the cross

275
00:10:54,900 --> 00:10:56,500
according to the eternal purpose

276
00:10:57,033 --> 00:10:59,400
is so that his glory would be made known through you

277
00:11:00,300 --> 00:11:02,600
so that his wisdom would be made known through you

278
00:11:02,833 --> 00:11:05,100
to the principalities of the heavenly places

279
00:11:05,300 --> 00:11:07,500
which is also what was happening in the garden

280
00:11:08,566 --> 00:11:09,766
because they it was

281
00:11:09,766 --> 00:11:12,166
the enemy was in the earth during the garden and

282
00:11:12,166 --> 00:11:14,566
and god says I'm gonna make you in my image

283
00:11:14,566 --> 00:11:16,533
now go therefore create

284
00:11:17,766 --> 00:11:21,433
put on display my nature cause you're just like me

285
00:11:21,433 --> 00:11:22,866
yeah that's right

286
00:11:23,633 --> 00:11:24,533
that's right

287
00:11:25,266 --> 00:11:26,866
hmm that's right

288
00:11:26,866 --> 00:11:28,266
I don't know guys

289
00:11:30,100 --> 00:11:31,033
this this look I

290
00:11:31,033 --> 00:11:33,300
I said this on Easter Sunday

291
00:11:33,300 --> 00:11:34,733
we stop at the cross

292
00:11:35,766 --> 00:11:39,066
the cross is the doorway to life

293
00:11:40,033 --> 00:11:42,366
and life should look like something more than just

294
00:11:42,366 --> 00:11:43,400
waiting for him to get back

295
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,066
that's right that's right

296
00:11:45,366 --> 00:11:46,633
the enemy comes to steal kill

297
00:11:46,633 --> 00:11:47,966
and destroy Jesus says

298
00:11:47,966 --> 00:11:49,166
but I have come to give life

299
00:11:49,166 --> 00:11:50,400
and life abundantly

300
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,366
and abundant life isn't just making money

301
00:11:53,366 --> 00:11:54,166
that's right

302
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,066
abundant life is actually living a life in Christ

303
00:11:57,066 --> 00:11:58,966
yes victorious

304
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:01,266
yes that's right

305
00:12:01,266 --> 00:12:05,966
and revealing a a nature and a facet of his wisdom

306
00:12:05,966 --> 00:12:08,900
and who he is in your own life that's right

307
00:12:10,366 --> 00:12:12,466
that's right this is why in in

308
00:12:12,466 --> 00:12:14,100
in Paul says this in Thessalonians

309
00:12:14,100 --> 00:12:16,433
he says they who compare themselves with themselves

310
00:12:16,433 --> 00:12:17,900
are without understanding

311
00:12:18,833 --> 00:12:20,900
because comparison kills yeah

312
00:12:21,566 --> 00:12:24,166
no longer do I reveal the the

313
00:12:24,166 --> 00:12:26,966
the the unique expression when I'm comparing

314
00:12:26,966 --> 00:12:29,066
whether I look mine looks like Ty's

315
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:30,633
or mine looks like Steve's

316
00:12:30,633 --> 00:12:33,166
or mine looks like Andy and Daniel's

317
00:12:33,166 --> 00:12:35,366
like when I start comparing

318
00:12:36,433 --> 00:12:37,866
I start come on

319
00:12:37,866 --> 00:12:39,133
dad disappearing

320
00:12:39,166 --> 00:12:39,966
come on dad

321
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,600
and it's not only me

322
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,033
it's actually the wisdom of the Lord

323
00:12:44,033 --> 00:12:46,266
that's meant to inhabit the earth

324
00:12:46,266 --> 00:12:48,600
gets shut down that's why Paul says

325
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,233
they who compare themselves with themselves

326
00:12:50,233 --> 00:12:51,966
are without understanding they

327
00:12:51,966 --> 00:12:54,166
they're missing it they're missing the point

328
00:12:54,700 --> 00:12:56,366
you actually can't be compared

329
00:12:56,500 --> 00:12:57,266
that's right

330
00:12:57,266 --> 00:12:59,000
I didn't mean to go into this comparison thing

331
00:12:59,000 --> 00:12:59,966
it literally just came out

332
00:12:59,966 --> 00:13:02,800
but it feels like it feel like it needed to

333
00:13:06,166 --> 00:13:07,566
so your unique

334
00:13:08,100 --> 00:13:09,466
I don't want to spend too much time here

335
00:13:09,466 --> 00:13:10,800
your unique gifts talents

336
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,766
skills anointing etcetera

337
00:13:12,900 --> 00:13:16,500
is meant to release the glory of the Lord in the earth

338
00:13:16,500 --> 00:13:17,800
in Proverbs 22 uh

339
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:18,866
29 it says

340
00:13:18,866 --> 00:13:21,233
do you see a man who excels in his work

341
00:13:21,233 --> 00:13:23,200
he will stand before kings

342
00:13:23,700 --> 00:13:26,266
he will not stand before unknown men

343
00:13:27,500 --> 00:13:28,866
uh let's go to exodus

344
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:30,800
give you

345
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,233
I'm trying to go through a little bit of a case study

346
00:13:33,233 --> 00:13:34,666
show you some case studies today of

347
00:13:34,666 --> 00:13:35,666
like what it looks like

348
00:13:35,666 --> 00:13:38,200
for the fruit of restoration to show up

349
00:13:39,233 --> 00:13:40,100
that's good

350
00:13:41,966 --> 00:13:42,966
we're gonna go a little quick

351
00:13:42,966 --> 00:13:43,966
you guys good

352
00:13:44,666 --> 00:13:47,566
so if you uh uh Exodus 31

353
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,366
so the lord's talking to Moses

354
00:13:51,366 --> 00:13:52,800
and this is when he's giving him

355
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,733
the design of the tabernacle

356
00:13:55,066 --> 00:13:57,033
and he gives him a design of a tabernacle

357
00:13:57,033 --> 00:13:58,733
you guys remember this conversation

358
00:13:58,766 --> 00:14:00,966
this tabernacle was a picture of something

359
00:14:00,966 --> 00:14:02,333
that was in a different realm

360
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:04,233
and the Lord said

361
00:14:04,233 --> 00:14:06,333
I want you to create this on the earth

362
00:14:06,833 --> 00:14:08,800
and I'm gonna give you the design and the blueprint

363
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:09,366
you know how we like

364
00:14:09,366 --> 00:14:10,500
pray for Lord

365
00:14:10,500 --> 00:14:13,000
give us blueprints and designs and upgrade

366
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:14,000
this is this happening

367
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:15,833
this is an example where this happens

368
00:14:15,833 --> 00:14:18,466
he literally gets a blueprint of a structure

369
00:14:18,666 --> 00:14:20,466
that is from a different world

370
00:14:20,466 --> 00:14:21,900
and he begins to build it

371
00:14:21,900 --> 00:14:23,966
and it actually comes manifest on the earth

372
00:14:23,966 --> 00:14:25,933
it comes a reality in the natural

373
00:14:27,166 --> 00:14:28,766
now when he does this

374
00:14:28,766 --> 00:14:31,500
it's needed because it's from a different realm

375
00:14:31,500 --> 00:14:33,833
it's actually needing something the other

376
00:14:33,833 --> 00:14:35,566
other worldly if you will

377
00:14:35,633 --> 00:14:37,100
for it to get carried out

378
00:14:37,100 --> 00:14:39,033
come on so he says to

379
00:14:39,033 --> 00:14:41,066
to Moses the Lord says to Moses

380
00:14:42,066 --> 00:14:44,166
see I have called by name Bezalel

381
00:14:44,166 --> 00:14:46,266
the son of Uri the son of her

382
00:14:46,266 --> 00:14:47,666
of the tribe of Judah

383
00:14:47,900 --> 00:14:49,900
I have filled him with the spirit of god

384
00:14:49,900 --> 00:14:51,966
in wisdom in understanding

385
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,766
in knowledge and in all kinds of craftsmanship

386
00:14:55,433 --> 00:14:56,233
okay

387
00:14:58,300 --> 00:14:59,800
this is the first time it's mentioned

388
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:01,300
where we hear someone being filled with

389
00:15:01,300 --> 00:15:04,133
the Holy Spirit this is before Christ

390
00:15:04,500 --> 00:15:05,966
after Christ it's available

391
00:15:05,966 --> 00:15:07,666
we're all having indwelling

392
00:15:07,666 --> 00:15:10,000
he makes his home in us we become the temple

393
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:12,200
before that that wasn't

394
00:15:12,766 --> 00:15:13,633
and there was times

395
00:15:13,633 --> 00:15:15,066
where the spirit would come on people

396
00:15:15,066 --> 00:15:18,466
but not in them and here's an example where he says I

397
00:15:18,466 --> 00:15:21,600
I'm I'm putting my spirit in Bezalel

398
00:15:22,833 --> 00:15:25,466
and I'm filling him with not just the spirit

399
00:15:25,466 --> 00:15:27,866
but in wisdom and understanding and knowledge

400
00:15:27,866 --> 00:15:29,166
and all kinds of craftsmanship

401
00:15:29,166 --> 00:15:30,200
this sound familiar

402
00:15:30,466 --> 00:15:32,166
you remember we started in Ephesians

403
00:15:32,866 --> 00:15:35,600
and it said that we are to reveal the wisdom

404
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,900
multifaceted wisdom of god

405
00:15:37,900 --> 00:15:41,700
the expression of god this is him doing that

406
00:15:41,700 --> 00:15:42,966
he fills him with the spirit

407
00:15:42,966 --> 00:15:45,000
so that he can reveal his wisdom

408
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:46,633
in understanding and knowledge

409
00:15:46,633 --> 00:15:48,300
and in all kinds of craftsmanship

410
00:15:48,300 --> 00:15:49,300
what for

411
00:15:50,300 --> 00:15:51,766
to get people saved

412
00:15:52,666 --> 00:15:53,466
no

413
00:15:55,700 --> 00:15:58,066
is it to lay hands on the sick

414
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,366
is it so that he can prophesy

415
00:16:01,366 --> 00:16:02,566
really good no

416
00:16:04,566 --> 00:16:05,533
are you ready

417
00:16:08,233 --> 00:16:11,500
to make artistic designs for work in gold and silver

418
00:16:11,500 --> 00:16:12,833
come on and in bronze

419
00:16:12,833 --> 00:16:15,000
and in the cutting of stones for the settings

420
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:16,466
and in carving of wood

421
00:16:16,466 --> 00:16:18,933
that he may work in all kinds of craftsmanship

422
00:16:19,666 --> 00:16:22,500
and behold I myself have appointed him oleyab

423
00:16:22,500 --> 00:16:25,033
the son of ahishamak the tribe of Dan

424
00:16:25,033 --> 00:16:27,833
and in the hearts of all who are skillful

425
00:16:27,833 --> 00:16:31,633
I have put skill that they may make all that

426
00:16:31,633 --> 00:16:33,100
I have commanded you look

427
00:16:33,100 --> 00:16:34,300
I'm giving you it's like this

428
00:16:34,300 --> 00:16:35,366
if I was to paraphrase it

429
00:16:35,366 --> 00:16:35,966
lord's like hey

430
00:16:35,966 --> 00:16:37,066
I'm giving you a design

431
00:16:37,066 --> 00:16:38,400
you're not gonna be able to do it

432
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,833
but I'm gonna get I'm gonna put my Holy Spirit in you

433
00:16:41,833 --> 00:16:44,433
so that you actually have the wisdom and the insight

434
00:16:44,433 --> 00:16:45,300
that's needed

435
00:16:45,300 --> 00:16:47,766
to take the resources that are around you and

436
00:16:47,766 --> 00:16:50,966
and manipulate them in such a way to create this

437
00:16:50,966 --> 00:16:53,166
this idea that I'm trying to give you to make

438
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,166
you're gonna need this to do that

439
00:16:59,366 --> 00:17:00,933
this is pretty significant

440
00:17:03,066 --> 00:17:04,900
and I think we overlook it

441
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:06,966
cause we stop at the cross

442
00:17:07,900 --> 00:17:10,466
instead of walking through and realizing what he did

443
00:17:10,466 --> 00:17:12,000
what he you know

444
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:13,700
what he paid for us to have

445
00:17:14,366 --> 00:17:16,200
it wasn't so that we could camp

446
00:17:17,566 --> 00:17:19,100
it was so that we can move

447
00:17:20,300 --> 00:17:22,200
it was so that we actually could

448
00:17:23,700 --> 00:17:25,800
reveal his nature

449
00:17:26,166 --> 00:17:28,733
cause he wants to give you ideas and things to do

450
00:17:28,966 --> 00:17:30,966
and you need the Holy Spirit to do it

451
00:17:31,833 --> 00:17:33,500
and you have the Holy Spirit

452
00:17:34,266 --> 00:17:36,400
so now what if you tapped into the Holy Spirit

453
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,566
to gain the wisdom and insight from another world

454
00:17:38,566 --> 00:17:39,800
to create and build

455
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,200
and do something that was otherworldly

456
00:17:43,466 --> 00:17:46,400
ordinary people doing extraordinary things

457
00:17:46,566 --> 00:17:48,733
this is the assignment of the body of Christ

458
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,066
we can't do it on our own

459
00:17:51,066 --> 00:17:53,900
we actually need him if we can do the things

460
00:17:53,900 --> 00:17:55,566
that we have found ourselves doing

461
00:17:55,566 --> 00:17:57,366
it's likely not his assignment

462
00:17:57,900 --> 00:18:00,033
because you're meant to create something otherworldly

463
00:18:00,033 --> 00:18:01,300
yeah okay

464
00:18:01,300 --> 00:18:03,000
getting ahead of myself it's good

465
00:18:04,366 --> 00:18:05,166
it's good

466
00:18:09,700 --> 00:18:10,500
all right

467
00:18:11,466 --> 00:18:12,100
we won't I

468
00:18:12,100 --> 00:18:13,566
I won't get into reading this

469
00:18:13,566 --> 00:18:15,100
but let's talk about Solomon

470
00:18:15,466 --> 00:18:17,866
um Solomon what

471
00:18:17,866 --> 00:18:18,500
what he had one

472
00:18:18,500 --> 00:18:19,166
one uh

473
00:18:19,166 --> 00:18:19,966
uh uh

474
00:18:20,066 --> 00:18:21,700
one guess he had one wish

475
00:18:21,900 --> 00:18:23,233
one wish what did he wish

476
00:18:23,233 --> 00:18:25,066
what did he get wisdom

477
00:18:25,700 --> 00:18:27,000
you seeing a trend here

478
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:29,166
he asked for wisdom

479
00:18:29,966 --> 00:18:33,533
what did wisdom end up looking like in his life

480
00:18:35,300 --> 00:18:38,900
it showed up in how he built the temple

481
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:43,566
how he organized and structured all the people

482
00:18:43,566 --> 00:18:45,933
to do the jobs that are inside the temple

483
00:18:46,366 --> 00:18:48,266
it's similar to the tabernacle

484
00:18:49,100 --> 00:18:51,833
where it's it's wisdom from another world

485
00:18:51,833 --> 00:18:54,766
now he's doing something that hasn't been seen before

486
00:18:55,633 --> 00:18:58,400
and we it's gonna hard for us to see it

487
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,500
because the things that he talks about

488
00:19:00,500 --> 00:19:01,800
are things that we know

489
00:19:02,366 --> 00:19:03,000
come on Dan

490
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:04,366
but at that time they didn't

491
00:19:04,366 --> 00:19:05,166
that's right

492
00:19:05,766 --> 00:19:08,766
that's right so he builds a temple

493
00:19:08,766 --> 00:19:10,500
he does some amazing stuff

494
00:19:10,500 --> 00:19:13,100
and I'm just giving you the really

495
00:19:13,100 --> 00:19:14,700
Reader's Digest version of the story

496
00:19:14,700 --> 00:19:16,800
and the Queen of Sheba hears about it

497
00:19:18,300 --> 00:19:19,633
what's the queen of Sheba

498
00:19:19,633 --> 00:19:21,933
what's the what is she a queen of

499
00:19:23,433 --> 00:19:24,466
nobody knows it Lebanon

500
00:19:24,466 --> 00:19:25,633
I'm pretty sure it's Lebanon

501
00:19:25,633 --> 00:19:27,433
so she's queen of another nation

502
00:19:27,433 --> 00:19:29,933
let's just say that because this is where it's going

503
00:19:30,166 --> 00:19:33,166
a nation has heard about what

504
00:19:33,166 --> 00:19:34,533
what Solomon has done

505
00:19:35,500 --> 00:19:37,633
and so a nation the queen

506
00:19:37,633 --> 00:19:40,466
comes to Solomon say hey

507
00:19:40,466 --> 00:19:42,266
I heard about what you have done

508
00:19:42,300 --> 00:19:44,133
I need to see it with my own eyes

509
00:19:44,866 --> 00:19:47,166
do you know what she was fascinated by

510
00:19:51,166 --> 00:19:52,166
the stairs

511
00:19:54,833 --> 00:19:56,900
she's fascinated by the stairs

512
00:19:57,433 --> 00:19:58,366
the waiters

513
00:19:59,033 --> 00:20:00,200
the silverware

514
00:20:03,666 --> 00:20:04,433
come on look

515
00:20:04,433 --> 00:20:05,600
we see this all the time

516
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,033
could you imagine if it never existed

517
00:20:07,033 --> 00:20:07,700
and all of a sudden

518
00:20:07,700 --> 00:20:09,266
through the wisdom from another world

519
00:20:09,266 --> 00:20:12,066
he creates and and is in in uh

520
00:20:12,066 --> 00:20:14,366
in his ingenuity creates and and

521
00:20:14,366 --> 00:20:16,600
and and does something that's never existed before

522
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:18,600
and someone from another nation comes and says

523
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,100
what in the world is this

524
00:20:20,833 --> 00:20:23,166
what have you done with the Forks

525
00:20:26,700 --> 00:20:27,566
come on John

526
00:20:31,033 --> 00:20:33,133
what ends up being her response

527
00:20:33,466 --> 00:20:34,966
she says wow

528
00:20:34,966 --> 00:20:36,300
I heard about this

529
00:20:36,300 --> 00:20:38,600
but it's nothing like what it is in person

530
00:20:39,066 --> 00:20:40,966
and now that I've seen it in person

531
00:20:41,633 --> 00:20:42,900
I want to fund it

532
00:20:44,233 --> 00:20:45,433
I wanna cut give you

533
00:20:45,433 --> 00:20:47,000
send you cedars from Lebanon

534
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:48,800
I wanna send you resources

535
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:50,800
how if I can just funnel money to you

536
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,133
with this kind of wisdom what else can you create

537
00:20:55,866 --> 00:20:56,900
okay when it says

538
00:20:56,900 --> 00:20:58,466
make disciples of all nations

539
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:00,466
what does the word disciple mean

540
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:01,800
learner

541
00:21:02,433 --> 00:21:03,866
what happened to Shiba

542
00:21:04,666 --> 00:21:06,366
she wanted to know come on

543
00:21:06,866 --> 00:21:08,266
she became a learner

544
00:21:08,300 --> 00:21:10,400
is it because she was taught a great message

545
00:21:13,066 --> 00:21:15,100
is it cause she was ministered to

546
00:21:15,300 --> 00:21:17,166
on her way to the grocery store

547
00:21:18,366 --> 00:21:21,566
no it's because she saw something she didn't have

548
00:21:24,633 --> 00:21:26,400
she saw something she didn't have

549
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:27,000
and she said

550
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,266
I want to know more what's happening over here

551
00:21:30,266 --> 00:21:34,700
and if I fund you if I fund it can I learn more

552
00:21:36,700 --> 00:21:39,800
Solomon made disciple of a nation

553
00:21:41,633 --> 00:21:43,866
by making silverware

554
00:21:45,366 --> 00:21:47,100
stairs come on

555
00:21:47,100 --> 00:21:48,933
the waiters and how they were dressed

556
00:21:49,033 --> 00:21:49,566
come on dad

557
00:21:49,566 --> 00:21:50,966
that's true and how they functioned

558
00:21:50,966 --> 00:21:54,500
that's true I hope you guys are picking this up

559
00:21:56,833 --> 00:21:59,266
she ends up funding it she funds

560
00:22:00,633 --> 00:22:02,566
120 talents of gold

561
00:22:04,300 --> 00:22:06,666
and I give you the uh uh uh uh

562
00:22:07,233 --> 00:22:08,766
get to the end really quickly

563
00:22:08,900 --> 00:22:12,566
if it's roughly $56,000 per kilogram

564
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:17,166
um this equates to being about $1.8 million

565
00:22:22,366 --> 00:22:24,800
now over the course of a year

566
00:22:24,900 --> 00:22:27,566
Solomon collected 666 talents

567
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,733
because people kept giving him money

568
00:22:30,500 --> 00:22:32,200
what else can you do with this

569
00:22:33,366 --> 00:22:36,566
he ends up collecting $1.2 billion in today's numbers

570
00:22:40,966 --> 00:22:42,466
because he made silverware

571
00:22:46,233 --> 00:22:48,600
I think we make it too complicated amen

572
00:22:50,766 --> 00:22:54,333
so the fruit of wisdom being released and and

573
00:22:54,500 --> 00:22:57,100
and and his facet of the wisdom of god being expressed

574
00:22:57,100 --> 00:22:59,166
and this is before the Holy Spirit

575
00:22:59,633 --> 00:23:01,466
so we have access to something

576
00:23:01,466 --> 00:23:02,966
that Solomon never had access to

577
00:23:02,966 --> 00:23:05,066
that's right before the Holy Spirit

578
00:23:05,066 --> 00:23:08,033
he expressed the wisdom of god in such a way that

579
00:23:08,033 --> 00:23:11,166
literally nations came to say what have you done

580
00:23:12,766 --> 00:23:14,466
what does this look like for us

581
00:23:15,666 --> 00:23:17,466
what is your unique expression

582
00:23:17,966 --> 00:23:19,600
what is the facet of the glory of god

583
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:20,966
that you're meant to reveal

584
00:23:21,833 --> 00:23:23,866
what would happen if you as we talked last week

585
00:23:23,866 --> 00:23:25,766
if you showed up in your environment

586
00:23:25,766 --> 00:23:28,800
and was revealing the nature of the father

587
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:30,100
and putting him on display

588
00:23:30,100 --> 00:23:30,933
come on

589
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:33,833
what if you lived your life in such a way

590
00:23:33,833 --> 00:23:36,100
that people came to you and said hey

591
00:23:36,100 --> 00:23:38,900
I wanna talk to you about how you talk to your wife

592
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:40,366
how I want

593
00:23:40,366 --> 00:23:42,266
I want more I wanna know more

I would champion her and shout her from the rooftops of

614
00:24:18,300 --> 00:24:19,966
if we're looking at what it looks like

615
00:24:19,966 --> 00:24:22,266
to be someone that's owning your season

yeah to the same man

635
00:25:07,566 --> 00:25:09,666
literal question that gets asked look

636
00:25:09,666 --> 00:25:10,666
it's dark out in the world

637
00:25:10,666 --> 00:25:11,900

638
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:14,100

640
00:25:16,100 --> 00:25:16,900
but

641
00:25:17,166 --> 00:25:20,266
what can you tell me about staying together for so long

642
00:25:24,266 --> 00:25:26,266
what does the fruit of restoration look like

643
00:25:26,266 --> 00:25:28,000
it's it looks like you're just showing up

644
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:29,066
and being on display

645
00:25:29,066 --> 00:25:31,266
with whatever the Lord has put inside of you

646
00:25:31,266 --> 00:25:33,800
and whatever victories and history you've created

647
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,866
you get to give away freely what you've received

648
00:25:36,866 --> 00:25:38,966
that's right that's right

649
00:25:39,633 --> 00:25:41,766
it looks like just showing up in an environment

650
00:25:41,766 --> 00:25:44,633
and watching the world become learners

651
00:25:44,633 --> 00:25:47,366
because they're hungry for something they haven't seen

652
00:25:47,900 --> 00:25:49,566
how is it that you're so hopeful

653
00:25:49,833 --> 00:25:51,400
how is it that you're so joyful

654
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,433
she shows up and she actually doesn't

655
00:25:53,433 --> 00:25:55,900
she has a work ethic that's to the nines

656
00:25:55,966 --> 00:25:58,233
and she shows up and all of a sudden

657
00:25:58,233 --> 00:26:00,466
the standards of the whole environment get raised

658
00:26:02,066 --> 00:26:03,266
and she just starts saying no

659
00:26:03,266 --> 00:26:04,666
this is how we do it no

660
00:26:04,666 --> 00:26:05,766
we clean up after ourselves

661
00:26:05,766 --> 00:26:07,066
no we do the best job

662
00:26:07,233 --> 00:26:09,500
we're a team this is who we are

663
00:26:09,500 --> 00:26:10,000
no

664
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,366
we're not gonna make a bad guy out of the night shift

665
00:26:12,366 --> 00:26:14,266
we're gonna do the work and have a conversation

666
00:26:14,266 --> 00:26:15,433
if you wanna have a conversation

667
00:26:15,433 --> 00:26:16,466
you should ask some questions

668
00:26:17,366 --> 00:26:19,500
she gets reproduce everything we know

669
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:24,066
and the environment has actually rose to the point

670
00:26:24,066 --> 00:26:25,633
that the higher UPS are saying hey

671
00:26:25,633 --> 00:26:28,166
the culture has changed in this location

672
00:26:29,366 --> 00:26:30,466
this is true story

673
00:26:31,300 --> 00:26:32,233
what can we do

674
00:26:32,233 --> 00:26:34,433
to get the other locations to look like that too

675
00:26:34,433 --> 00:26:36,600
there it is come on

676
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,200
literal word can we send her

677
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,300
to see if that culture can get over here

678
00:26:42,833 --> 00:26:44,000
does this sound familiar

679
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:47,966
literally the definition of being apostolic

680
00:26:48,100 --> 00:26:50,700
being sent to reproduce culture from where you're from

681
00:26:51,366 --> 00:26:52,666
so um

682
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:54,300
my story I remember um

683
00:26:54,300 --> 00:26:56,666
being in business years ago

684
00:26:56,666 --> 00:26:58,466
and I got a phone call one day

685
00:26:58,466 --> 00:27:00,366
and the lady goes hey um

686
00:27:00,366 --> 00:27:02,366
I'd love to ask you if you'd want to um

687
00:27:02,433 --> 00:27:05,400
join the board of our chamber of Commerce and

688
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:06,600
and I was like I don't know

689
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:07,500
late 20s and I'm like

690
00:27:07,500 --> 00:27:09,000
well sure

691
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:10,366
this would be a good business move

692
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,100
so I'm not putting two and two together

693
00:27:13,100 --> 00:27:14,800
that it's an invitation from the Lord

694
00:27:14,900 --> 00:27:17,766
but we are learning about cultural transformation

695
00:27:17,766 --> 00:27:19,600
and city impact at the same time

696
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,033
so I show you ready

697
00:27:23,033 --> 00:27:25,233
first first board meeting is a all day

698
00:27:25,233 --> 00:27:26,266
strategic planning session

699
00:27:26,266 --> 00:27:29,066
to dream over the 20 year vision of our city

700
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:32,366
that's the first meeting

701
00:27:33,266 --> 00:27:35,200
and they said here's your assignment

702
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,900
here's your poster board dream about what you wanted to

703
00:27:37,900 --> 00:27:40,000
see what you wanted to look like in 20 years

704
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:40,933
and write it down

705
00:27:41,833 --> 00:27:43,633
and I'm like are you kidding me

706
00:27:43,633 --> 00:27:45,900
I didn't I didn't try to do this

707
00:27:46,366 --> 00:27:48,466
I just said yes to something

708
00:27:48,466 --> 00:27:49,300
and next thing you know

709
00:27:49,300 --> 00:27:51,833
I'm a part of establishing a 20 year vision

710
00:27:51,833 --> 00:27:53,100
and I get to say Lord

711
00:27:53,100 --> 00:27:54,700
what do you want it to look like

712
00:27:55,866 --> 00:27:57,100
and how are you gonna write stuff down

713
00:27:57,100 --> 00:27:59,633
and to this day it's still in a 20 year vision

714
00:27:59,633 --> 00:28:00,566
that's being carried out

715
00:28:00,566 --> 00:28:02,000
and implemented through other boards

716
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:03,100
as they've come along

717
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:06,600
you just get to give away what you have

718
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:07,600
you get to show up it's

719
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:09,700
what's the fruit of restoration is

720
00:28:09,700 --> 00:28:11,366
is wholeness is health

721
00:28:11,366 --> 00:28:13,033
is joy it's hope

722
00:28:13,033 --> 00:28:14,866
it's raising the standard in the bar

723
00:28:14,866 --> 00:28:16,600
because that's how it looks there

724
00:28:21,866 --> 00:28:22,733
it's good

725
00:28:25,466 --> 00:28:26,266
okay

726
00:28:27,766 --> 00:28:28,933
last story

727
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,200
you guys familiar with chip and Joanna Gaines

728
00:28:34,633 --> 00:28:36,666
the Magnolia story who's read the book

729
00:28:36,666 --> 00:28:37,466
anybody

730
00:28:37,666 --> 00:28:38,966
right we're a little bit

731
00:28:38,966 --> 00:28:40,000
probably 10 years late now

732
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:41,333
but that's okay uh

733
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:43,833
so the the the

734
00:28:43,833 --> 00:28:44,966
the story

735
00:28:45,500 --> 00:28:47,900
their story is absolutely profound

736
00:28:48,166 --> 00:28:49,833
we when we traveled out here

737
00:28:49,833 --> 00:28:51,633
when we moved out here we made a detour

738
00:28:51,633 --> 00:28:54,500
stop by Waco and said we need to visit and check out

739
00:28:54,500 --> 00:28:57,100
you know Magnolia Farms and do the things and

740
00:28:57,100 --> 00:28:59,500
and so which is almost 10 years ago

741
00:28:59,500 --> 00:29:01,500
so it was trending then I know it's not as trending now

742
00:29:01,500 --> 00:29:03,366
but so we we

743
00:29:03,366 --> 00:29:07,500
we pop in and we do this little tour on a

744
00:29:07,500 --> 00:29:10,900
on a trolley and in the tour on the trolley

745
00:29:10,900 --> 00:29:12,300
the guy is telling us about

746
00:29:12,300 --> 00:29:14,700
how this street used to be devastated

747
00:29:14,700 --> 00:29:16,400
and it was it was all empty

748
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:17,633
and now it's starting to

749
00:29:17,633 --> 00:29:19,400
the business is starting to pop up

750
00:29:19,466 --> 00:29:20,500

751
00:29:20,566 --> 00:29:21,366
I'm like how come

752
00:29:21,366 --> 00:29:21,900
he goes

753
00:29:21,900 --> 00:29:23,933
it's because of all the tourists that have been coming

754
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:25,633
like what

755
00:29:25,633 --> 00:29:26,900
like how many tourists

00:29:27,266 --> 00:29:29,733

757
00:29:30,466 --> 00:29:32,000
I said 3,000 a week

758
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:32,800

759
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:33,833

00:29:33,833 --> 00:29:37,133
30,000 a week people are coming in

761
00:29:38,300 --> 00:29:39,400
hmm yeah

762
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,300
they're calling this the Silos District now

763
00:29:41,300 --> 00:29:42,600
which the silos is part of

764
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:43,900
what Magnolia is is like

765
00:29:43,900 --> 00:29:44,766
a pioneer

766
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,366
they're calling it the Silos District certain

767
00:29:47,366 --> 00:29:48,800
I'm like so then I started

768
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:50,966
like doing some study and backtracking okay

769
00:29:50,966 --> 00:29:52,266
this sounds like the kingdom

770
00:29:52,900 --> 00:29:54,300
this sounds like the kingdom happening

771
00:29:54,300 --> 00:29:56,833
I know they're believers to what degree

772
00:29:56,833 --> 00:29:57,800
come to find out oh

773
00:29:57,800 --> 00:29:59,566
Chris has actually been at their church

774
00:30:00,500 --> 00:30:04,400
really to what degree is this kingdom like happening

775
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:06,833
I keep doing some research and digging and

776
00:30:06,833 --> 00:30:08,066
you know when it started

777
00:30:11,700 --> 00:30:12,900
Joe Joe

778
00:30:12,900 --> 00:30:13,600
Chip and Joe right

779
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,366
Joe had a dream of Manhattan design meets Waco

780
00:30:16,666 --> 00:30:17,366
chip says hey

781
00:30:17,366 --> 00:30:20,033
you should go for it in a 2003

782
00:30:20,033 --> 00:30:21,966
Joanna opens a store

783
00:30:22,866 --> 00:30:25,000
and chip has a construction background

784
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:26,366
flipping homes and businesses

785
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:28,600
he says you should do this

786
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:29,766
she had a dream

787
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:32,100
she had an idea yeah yeah

788
00:30:33,566 --> 00:30:35,066
let's open a store let's go

789
00:30:35,066 --> 00:30:36,600
for it let's take the risk

790
00:30:36,966 --> 00:30:37,833
several years later

791
00:30:37,833 --> 00:30:40,700
she actually closes the store to focus on family during

792
00:30:40,700 --> 00:30:43,666
in which time they started focusing on Magnolia Homes

793
00:30:43,666 --> 00:30:44,700
which is where they were

794
00:30:44,700 --> 00:30:47,033
just literally had the phrase in the statement

795
00:30:47,033 --> 00:30:48,300
we're making Waco beautiful

796
00:30:48,300 --> 00:30:49,400
one home at a time

797
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,933
and chip starts getting the the uh uh uh

798
00:30:53,066 --> 00:30:55,066
nickname the mayor of Third Street

799
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,300
because he's just going down the street

800
00:30:57,433 --> 00:30:59,033
taking one renovating it

801
00:30:59,033 --> 00:30:59,966
selling it one

802
00:30:59,966 --> 00:31:00,900
renovating it selling it

803
00:31:00,900 --> 00:31:02,366
and just making it beautiful

804
00:31:02,500 --> 00:31:04,866
one home at a time he has a skill

805
00:31:06,100 --> 00:31:08,333
she has a dream he's got a skill

806
00:31:08,500 --> 00:31:11,400
he's got a dream about the city let's make it better

807
00:31:13,666 --> 00:31:17,666
2,014 they opened the uh Magnolia store

808
00:31:19,366 --> 00:31:20,866
Favor uh

809
00:31:21,033 --> 00:31:25,200
and then 2013 drew the attention of HGTV

810
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:26,166
Fixer Upper

811
00:31:26,766 --> 00:31:28,733
and then they reopened the store

812
00:31:29,466 --> 00:31:30,833
immediate national attention

813
00:31:30,833 --> 00:31:32,766
growing exponentially year by year

814
00:31:32,833 --> 00:31:34,366
media national social media

815
00:31:34,366 --> 00:31:36,300
economical influence the fruit

816
00:31:36,300 --> 00:31:39,000
multiple businesses tourism explosion

817
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:40,800
the nation comes to the city

818
00:31:41,233 --> 00:31:43,166
surrounding economic explosion

819
00:31:43,166 --> 00:31:44,800
other businesses in in

820
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:46,166
and they're attached to them

821
00:31:46,166 --> 00:31:47,966
are also getting favor

822
00:31:48,833 --> 00:31:50,600
and they're beginning to succeed

823
00:31:52,766 --> 00:31:57,500
their net worth exploded to multi millions

824
00:31:57,500 --> 00:31:58,933
over the course of five years

825
00:32:00,866 --> 00:32:03,066
I'm getting I'm going very quick over this

826
00:32:03,066 --> 00:32:04,833
I like to take a lot of time to talk through this

827
00:32:04,833 --> 00:32:07,700
because this is someone who had an idea

828
00:32:08,300 --> 00:32:10,366
as someone else who had a skill set

829
00:32:11,466 --> 00:32:14,766
and they revealed a unique facet of the glory of god

830
00:32:14,766 --> 00:32:16,266
that hadn't happened before

831
00:32:16,266 --> 00:32:19,133
and it trended and and became a global phenomenon

832
00:32:19,866 --> 00:32:22,466
and the all the world has come there

833
00:32:22,466 --> 00:32:24,700
and I think the biggest impact

834
00:32:24,700 --> 00:32:27,266
and biggest thing for me to see

835
00:32:27,266 --> 00:32:29,933
is the fact that when you hear about Waco

836
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:31,466
what do you think of

837
00:32:32,833 --> 00:32:34,133
chip and Joanna games

838
00:32:34,666 --> 00:32:35,766
and it wasn't long ago

839
00:32:35,766 --> 00:32:37,066
when you thought of something else

840
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:41,166
that's restoration

841
00:32:42,966 --> 00:32:44,666
because someone had an idea

842
00:32:45,566 --> 00:32:46,700
because someone had a dream

843
00:32:46,700 --> 00:32:49,700
and the Lord began to reveal a restorative nature

844
00:32:49,700 --> 00:32:52,266
and restoring a city even what it's named for

845
00:32:52,266 --> 00:32:55,400
known for and what it's traveled to for

846
00:32:57,100 --> 00:32:58,200
that's good dad

847
00:32:59,233 --> 00:33:00,866
what could he do through your dream

848
00:33:01,900 --> 00:33:03,400
what if you were free to dream

849
00:33:03,666 --> 00:33:04,800
what if you were free to dream

850
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:06,866
in a way that didn't look like anybody else's

851
00:33:06,866 --> 00:33:07,633
in fact I might

852
00:33:07,633 --> 00:33:09,000
I think it's kind of the point

853
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:10,100
yeah it is

854
00:33:10,100 --> 00:33:12,400
it is the point you'd have to be okay with the fact

855
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:14,000
that it didn't look like anybody else's

856
00:33:14,033 --> 00:33:14,833
yeah

857
00:33:15,266 --> 00:33:17,533
it might not make as much money as somebody else's

858
00:33:18,233 --> 00:33:20,233
it might not be quote unquote successful

859
00:33:20,233 --> 00:33:22,366
to the American dream if you pursued it

860
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:24,500
but I wanna challenge you

861
00:33:24,500 --> 00:33:26,700
to redefine your definition of success

862
00:33:27,166 --> 00:33:29,666
success isn't your net worth or how much money you make

863
00:33:29,666 --> 00:33:30,766
or what how many

864
00:33:30,766 --> 00:33:32,000
many properties you're own

865
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:33,966
success is actually walking out the call of god

866
00:33:33,966 --> 00:33:35,100
on your life amen

867
00:33:35,666 --> 00:33:38,533
you walk out what the Lord has called you to do amen

868
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,166
those guys in the Bible that we read about

869
00:33:41,166 --> 00:33:42,200
they didn't have a bank account

870
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:43,100
yeah come on

871
00:33:44,100 --> 00:33:47,100
and that is success they're in the hall of faith

872
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:49,533
because they said yes to the Lord

873
00:33:49,633 --> 00:33:51,333
and if you're yes to the Lord

874
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:52,433
I would I would

875
00:33:52,433 --> 00:33:54,466
I would venture to bet your yes to the Lord

876
00:33:54,466 --> 00:33:57,200
would reveal a side and a facet of who he is

877
00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,933
in his wisdom that the world's never seen

878
00:34:00,500 --> 00:34:03,800
that actually might cause people to be drawn

879
00:34:04,366 --> 00:34:06,200
because it's his nature on display

880
00:34:06,466 --> 00:34:07,766
it's through your creativity

881
00:34:07,766 --> 00:34:09,033
it's through your ingenuity

882
00:34:09,033 --> 00:34:10,966
it's through your unique expression

883
00:34:10,966 --> 00:34:12,100
well then I'm not creative

884
00:34:12,100 --> 00:34:15,366
look you're made in the image of the creator

885
00:34:15,366 --> 00:34:16,966
you cannot be creative

886
00:34:16,966 --> 00:34:18,566
I don't care how left brain you are

887
00:34:19,300 --> 00:34:22,433
you still have a nature of revealing a side

888
00:34:22,433 --> 00:34:25,200
and a facet of who he is that nobody else

889
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:27,433
not the person next to you or on the other side of you

890
00:34:27,433 --> 00:34:29,166
has the ability to do so

891
00:34:29,633 --> 00:34:31,900
nobody has the ability to reveal the facet

892
00:34:31,900 --> 00:34:33,133
that you're meant to

893
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,400
and it isn't so that you get rich or wealthy

894
00:34:35,466 --> 00:34:38,333
it's actually so that he gets what he paid for

895
00:34:39,066 --> 00:34:41,400
cause he paid to restore it all back to him

896
00:34:41,933 --> 00:34:43,666
so let's not hold anything back

897
00:34:43,666 --> 00:34:46,466
when it comes to the assignments that are on your life

898
00:34:46,466 --> 00:34:48,066
the calls that are on your life

899
00:34:48,066 --> 00:34:50,166
even if it doesn't look like standing on a stage

900
00:34:50,166 --> 00:34:52,000
it might look like planning a board

901
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,566
because you make the best and I emphasize

902
00:34:55,566 --> 00:34:57,900
the wisdom of god is revealed through excellence

903
00:34:57,900 --> 00:34:59,600
it is the best

904
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:04,366
bookshelves that are known in all of the southeast

905
00:35:06,033 --> 00:35:07,466
there's something about them

906
00:35:08,666 --> 00:35:10,133
I know it sounds wild

907
00:35:10,466 --> 00:35:12,466
but it's literally what we just read

908
00:35:13,166 --> 00:35:14,700
it's how he showed up with Solomon

909
00:35:14,700 --> 00:35:16,300
it's how he showed up with

910
00:35:16,466 --> 00:35:17,666
with uh Moses

911
00:35:19,466 --> 00:35:21,166
and I think our short sightedness

912
00:35:21,166 --> 00:35:23,266
doesn't allow us to actually step into this

913
00:35:23,266 --> 00:35:24,066
wow

914
00:35:25,066 --> 00:35:26,066
good word Dan

915
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:29,566
to really explore what could it look like if it were me

916
00:35:29,700 --> 00:35:30,933
yeah would you stand

917
00:35:31,233 --> 00:35:32,033
it's good Dan

918
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:40,100
so Lord

919
00:35:40,100 --> 00:35:42,233
we just I just pray for our house

920
00:35:42,233 --> 00:35:43,800
that we would even just be

921
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:46,033
step into a place where there's a door opening

922
00:35:46,033 --> 00:35:47,800
an open heaven and there's a

923
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:49,033
permission to explore

924
00:35:49,033 --> 00:35:51,066
the creative nature of your heart

925
00:35:52,433 --> 00:35:54,800
rooms in in this third heaven space

926
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:56,666
that we didn't even know existed

927
00:35:59,066 --> 00:36:01,100
I don't I think I said this last week there's there's

928
00:36:01,100 --> 00:36:01,900
there's there's a

929
00:36:01,900 --> 00:36:04,366
if you imagine a hall and

930
00:36:04,366 --> 00:36:07,366
and there's rooms and over each room there's a name

931
00:36:07,866 --> 00:36:09,600
and your name's on one of those rooms

932
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:11,033
and when you open the door

933
00:36:11,033 --> 00:36:13,300
it doesn't come to a four wall box

934
00:36:13,300 --> 00:36:15,466
it opens to a whole another expanse

935
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,733
and there's an invitation that through the cross

936
00:36:18,766 --> 00:36:20,966
you can explore what it looks like

937
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:25,133
to reveal the wisdom the infinite wisdom

938
00:36:25,266 --> 00:36:26,800
the creative nature

939
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:30,033
the expression of who he is in the earth

940
00:36:30,033 --> 00:36:31,066
come on dad

941
00:36:31,300 --> 00:36:32,600
that's right so Lord

942
00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:33,300
I just pray that

943
00:36:33,300 --> 00:36:37,900
we just receive and experience an impartation of just

944
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:39,233
yes wonder

945
00:36:39,233 --> 00:36:40,300
yes Lord

946
00:36:40,500 --> 00:36:43,000
wonder what would it look like for me

947
00:36:46,766 --> 00:36:49,733
and hunger and discovery and exploration

948
00:36:50,900 --> 00:36:52,833
what would it look like for us as a house

949
00:36:52,833 --> 00:36:54,400
what if this room

950
00:36:55,700 --> 00:36:57,266
was ignited

951
00:36:57,300 --> 00:37:00,700
to go after a unique expression in the earth

952
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:03,333
regardless of what people thought

953
00:37:03,566 --> 00:37:06,233
what people did regardless of how much money it made

954
00:37:06,233 --> 00:37:07,766
it might just be your hobby

955
00:37:09,700 --> 00:37:10,100
but Lord

956
00:37:10,100 --> 00:37:13,566
I just remove any lids in the room

957
00:37:14,766 --> 00:37:15,866
even prophetically

958
00:37:15,866 --> 00:37:19,433
we just rip a lid off the house and say

959
00:37:19,433 --> 00:37:22,500
you have permission to dream and pursue

960
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:27,166
and explore the heart of the father the dreams he has

961
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:29,866
and so Lord

962
00:37:29,866 --> 00:37:31,433
we just bless that over this house

963
00:37:31,433 --> 00:37:32,766
and we bless what you're doing

964
00:37:32,766 --> 00:37:33,500
yes we thank you

965
00:37:33,500 --> 00:37:36,100
in Jesus name amen amen
