final program

sponsored by friends and partners of

Kingdom connection

greetings from judges chapter 7 and

today I’m beginning a series for the

next three services see it everybody say

see it say it and sees it one more time

see it say it and sees it go to judges

chapter 7 verse 9 it happened on the

same night that the Lord said to him

arise go down against the camp for I

have delivered it into your hand but if

you are afraid to go in other words if

you think I’m a liar God is saying then

I’m going to help you with your doubt go

down to the count the enemy’s camp with

pura your servant and you shall hear

what they say about you and afterward

your hands will be strengthened to go

down against the camp he went down the

pier with his sirup servant to the

outposts the armed men who were in the

camp now the Midianites the Amalekites

the people of the east were lying in the

valley as numerous as locusts their

camels were without number as the sand

by the seashore in the multitude and

when Gideon had come there was a man

telling a dream to his companion he’s

eavesdropping on the enemy’s camp and he

said I have a dream to my surprise a

loaf of barley bread tumbled into the

camp of Midian it came to a tent struck

it so that it fell and overturned and

the tent collapse then his companion

answered and said I know what this is

this is nothing else but the sword of

Gideon the son of joash a man of Israel

into his hand God has delivered Midian

and the whole camp and so it was when

Gideon heard the telling of the dream in

its interpretation that he worshiped he

returned to the camp of Israel and said

arise for the Lord has delivered the

camp of Midian into our hand I’ll stop

there but I want you to see this story

in a way that I believe God really wants

you to get I got an important message

today the promise of God is what we

won’t

when God gives you a promise he gave

Gideon a promise I have given the enemy

into your hand

they were so greatly outnumbered he only

had 300 men and God said you’re going to

defeat him but he did not have enough

with the promise alone to his faith

didn’t believe he just said we’re

outnumbered were outmaneuvered there’s

no way we can defeat them and God said

okay the promise is not enough for you

see the promise the promises that God

gives you are not self-fulfilling all

the time God gave the children of Israel

amazing promises they were pregnant with

promises but they never entered into the

promised land so it’s not a matter of

whether or not God has made you promises

because just because you have promises

and you found them in the Word of God

does not mean you enter into those the

fulfillment of those promises there is

something that has to happen to provoke

your faith you see a promise from God is

just a revelation of God’s divine

intentions in your life God will give

you a promise and he’ll show you in the

scripture his divine intentions and God

says this is what I plan to do now what

do you plan to do we need more than a

promise the key is to make the promise

into a picture that’s why God said to

get in I promise you I’m going to

deliver them into your hand but if you

don’t believe what I’m telling you if

you think I’m lying if you think I’m not

able to do what I’m telling you I’m

going to do in your life then I want you

to go down and I want you to listen to

what the enemy is saying and you will

get a picture in your mind and in your

heart of seeing yourself completely

having victory over the situation that I

promised you I would give you it wasn’t

until Gideon who was behind the rock

hiding and he heard the enemy talking

saying I’m telling you I saw in a dream

a cup

cake roll down the hill and wipe us out

and the other guy says I know what that

cupcake is that cupcake is Gideon and

Gideon is hiding and he hears it and

snap he gets a picture God had told him

he was going to be victorious but he

didn’t believe it it wasn’t until he got

a picture of his victory of his future

of what he was going to do and how God

was going to use him that he believed it

and that’s why he began to worship it

wasn’t till after he got the picture

that he started worshipping he said I

can see it and the first part of this

message is see it you’re gonna have to

see it you’re gonna have to say it and

you’re gonna have to sees it that’s what

I’m preaching on see it but you will

never possess the promise of God until

you see it if you see it then God can

bring it to pass God gave Gideon the

promise but if the promise doesn’t

provoke a picture in you it’ll never

come to pass I’m telling you God made us

visual if I say horse you see a horse if

I say cat you see a cat if I say dog you

see a dog just a moment I say if I say

polka-dotted something you see

polka-dots if I say zebra you see a

black and white horse and God is saying

sometimes a promise is not enough you

have to get a picture as a matter of

fact every time the dream and the

interpretation was the picture and when

he got the picture what he didn’t

respond to when God gave him a promise

he did respond to the picture he started

worshiping he ran back to the camp and

said get everybody get up we’re going to

defeat the Midianites what had changed

God had told him and he didn’t get

excited Noah when he got a picture of

his future when he understood I’m the

cupcake I’m the one and he saw it

before it was ever manifest outwardly he

had a picture of it inwardly everything

changed you’re closer than your miracle

you’re closer to your miracle than you

realize you’re a pitcher away from the

performance of the promise

Gideon breaks out into worship why

because when he had the promise he still

wasn’t convinced but when he had the

picture the pitcher convinced him if you

can see it you can have it if you can

see it God can do it if you can see it

it can become a reality but you’ve got

to see a picture if you can see yourself

free if you can see yourself healthy if

you can see yourself successful if you

can see and how do you do that you get

promises from God’s Word he begins to

renew your mind and you don’t see

yourself as a failure you don’t see

yourself as an addict you don’t see

yourself as a loser you don’t see

yourself as a nobody headed nowhere

doing nothing but when you get filled

with the promises the next thing God

will do is he will turn it into a

picture of who you really are and if you

can see it see yourself blessed see

yourself prosperous it can change your

life without a vision people perish one

translation said without a vision people

lose all restraint you want to know why

people go crazy and getting become drug

addicts and young people go out and live

crazy and get drunk and all that they

don’t know where they’re going because

when you know that you’ve got a goal and

a vision for your life all those things

are our distractions Jack Nicholas the

great master golfer who’s won every

championship you can imagine was asked

one time how did you win so many golf

championships listen to this young

people listen he said I see every shot I

take in my mind

before my body gets involved I see every

shot in practice and when I get ready to

address the ball where I want it to go

my mind lets the pitcher govern my

body’s response if your mind can be

persuaded by a pitcher then your body

begins to respond let the pitcher

develop in your mind and usually

pitchers have to be developed in dart

rooms and it’s when you get in darkness

that God will begin to develop the

picture of who you really are

when God told me to come to free chapel

25 years ago and I pulled up to the

first service I had a picture inside of

me that God had put for this church and

I did not see that church struggling I

did not see that church half-empty I did

not see that church remaining small I

did not see it I was so blinded with

vision that when I walked in I looked

back on it now I don’t know if I would

have that faith now but God gave me more

than a promise he gave me a picture and

I saw I remember when God started

calling me to preach I would hear

anointed preachers preach and I would

see me doing it I was sitting out there

like you but the anointing would get on

me and I would I would be afraid of what

I would feel but I could see it I could

see me preaching on television I’m sorry

I’m just gonna tell it like I saw these

cameras before you see these cameras I

saw this church before come on church

he’ll give you a picture I saw myself

blessed

I saw myself winning I saw myself

overcoming I saw myself having a

beautiful family

I saw myself finding me a beautiful life

and that’s why I didn’t date everything

out there on two legs

you gotta get a picture what are you

seeing well I just kind of let life hit

me it’s gonna hit you your mind is

important once it’s in my mind my body

aligns to the picture that’s why that’s

why praise is so important because

really what praise is is your body

responding to the picture on the inside

which explains why some of you don’t do

much of it because what’s on the inside

of you is you’re expecting nothing

you’re believing for nothing you’re

seeing nothing you’re taking it as it

comes and God says I have a plan for the

rest of your life and it’s good and all

some of you see is failure and hurt and

depression and disaster and bad things

and I’m gonna tell you whatsoever things

are good and pure and just and lovely

and if there be any pray you’ve got to

get the promise and turn it into a

picture and say I don’t see me broke I

don’t see me struggling I don’t see me a

loser

I don’t see me hopeless and I don’t see

me lonely I don’t see me checking in to

the old folks home and nobody loving me

I see me blessed all the days of my life

surely goodness and mercy will follow me

everywhere I go I see it I say it and I

seize it come on and clap your hands and

believe God let your body respond to

what you see

the children of Israel so your life will

always move in the direction of the

dominant pitcher you allow to reside in

your mind so if if you see he’s probably

gonna get worse you’re struggling now

but he seemed gonna get worse

I don’t see that when I read the

scriptures I see the scripture saying

you’ll be blessed and sitting blessed in

the field and I will make a way and I

will take care of you and I’ve never

seen the righteous forsaken I’ll never

say it’s gonna be he’s gonna God is for

me well you got to get a picture of that

God is for me sometimes you feel like

Naomi I’m just Forsaken and old

bitterness is set up in my heart cuz

life has been a big God is for me and if

you ever get that picture God is for me

children of Israel God said God said to

the children of Israel go into the

Promised Land just send 12 spies let

them take pictures and bring back some

grapes basically what he was saying is

bring back grapes show everybody I

wanted to get I wanted to move from a

promise to a picture and they were

supposed to come back and they were

supposed to say my God look at these

grapes and the Bible said the grapes

were the size of watermelons but instead

they came back talking about the size of

the Giants and that that’s that that’s

the picture they had in their mind we

listen to the pitcher

we’re grasshoppers they’re giants they

should have come back seen the picture

there’s greats and God said that we can

do it in God’s bigger than the Giants

the picture matters that’s why God said

to Abraham Abraham I know you’re an old

man and I know your wife thinks you had

a senior moment when you told her she

was gonna get pregnant cuz she’s an old

woman but Abraham if you don’t believe

my promise go out and look at the sand

and I’ll give you a daylight vision it

has the sands of the seashore so shall

your children be I want you to every

time you see the sand I want you to get

a picture of your family and if it gets

dark then I want you to look up and see

the stars I want to give you a nighttime

vision so that

it really gets dark and when the stars

twinkle and you see them by the billions

in millions he said when you see the

stars think as the stars of heaven so

shall your seed be because you won’t

believe what I tell you in the promise

until you get a picture and we started

seeing it and I can almost hear him sing

zip-a-dee-doo-dah

come on Sarah we’re going back here

we’re going we’re going wig on we’re

gonna make a baby but he had to see it

I’m concerned that a generation of young

people are coming up and they don’t have

a clue and the deal is you got to get

into these promises because if you’re

getting good services like this the

anointing of God will begin to mess with

your destiny and will begin to bring up

but to surface the promises of God over

your life and the purposes of God but

then the purpose has to become a picture

I won’t throw this and Jesus was about

to call Peter into the ministry listen

this is this is this is powerful but he

had just come in from fishing all night

and caught nothing and Jesus was about

to tell him follow me and you’ll become

fishers of men but what would have been

the pitcher in his mind empty Nets well

let me let me go out and I’ll preach the

gospel I might catch one struggling

little fish in my net huh not gonna

catch much no no jesus said before I

call him into the ministry to be fishers

of men

I’m gonna get a picture in his brain of

what kind of fisherman he’s gonna be

come on out in the boat with me and cast

it on the other side and the Bible said

the net began to break the boat begin to

sink then he comes in and immediately

Jesus turns to him and says follow me

and I’ll make you fishers of men and he

didn’t have a picture of struggling he

had a picture of overflow

I’m almost through

y’all getting anything out of this you

know have you ever tried to explain

something to your children and they just

you told them in words but they just

didn’t get it

and you finally get frustrating you said

what I have to do draw you a picture

clean your room ah do I have to draw you

a picture I think that’s how Jesus feels

I give you the promise but if you won’t

get the promise what I have to do to

tell you I’m for you I have a I love you

with an everlasting love don’t you get

the picture I’ll never leave you I’ll

never forsake you don’t you get the

picture no weapon formed against you

will ultimately prosper don’t you get

the picture greater is He that’s in Yin

don’t give up because I’m for you I’m

for you don’t you get the picture Albert

Einstein said imagination is much

greater than knowledge knowledge is

about facts but imagination is greater

than knowledge why for you can if you

can see it in your mind your imagination

can take you beyond the facts that’s

what happened to that woman with the

issue of blood the facts said the

knowledge of her day said you have a

blood disease and you’ve spent all your

money and you will never get better but

she got a picture in her mind if I can

but touch the hinge if I can touch the

hem I see myself touching the hem of his

garment and if I can do it I’ll release

my faith it’s the point of contact and

I’ll get here and you know what she got

it she went beyond knowledge she went

beyond facts and facts may tell you you

shouldn’t believe facts may tell you you

can’t build a successful business facts

and knowledge may tell you that odds are

against you and you’re not educated

enough and you’re not talented enough

and you’re not smart enough and you’re

not a big shot and you’re not you don’t

have any connections and you don’t have

back in blah blah blah bah

bah-bah-bah-bah but if you can get the

picture from God you can say to all

those talented people move over all

those people that are much more

qualified move over move up because

there’s something about a person who

gets a picture from God

oh I wish I could put this in a needle

and shoot it up in you some of you’ve

had that other stuff shot up in you you

need some of this you’ll know why you

don’t know why you always getting drunk

and sleeping up and falling into

adultery in this it’s because you’re not

full of the promises of God this is the

mote you you know you know what happens

to people they get bored they get bored

with life but when you get promises and

they become a picture you get a vision

for your future the picture was in her

mind then it will to Kirby ond the facts

and knowledge I’m saying to you today

that if you see it the next thing I’m

going to talk about it

Winston next Sunday you say it and you

can seize it if you get a picture your

emotions will explode let me give you a

picture watch this let’s say Drake and I

were driving down the road this week and

he turned to me he said he looked at the

billboard and it said 133 million dollar

lottery he said dad he said what would

you do if you won that you know the

thought hit me when I went back home

what would I do

um would you give it back preacher cuz

she slipped no I would not no I wouldn’t

buy the ticket first of all let me be

clear

but if Drake got it and they called me

on a Saturday night at 11:45 and said

you have just won 133 million dollars I

wouldn’t go praise the Lord my body

would explode off the pitcher then I’d

write my tie check and come to churches

next Sunday that next morning that’s

exactly what I would do number one

so get this

that picture that happened yet just the

picture makes your body explode ah I

mean you’d have curlers in your hair mud

on your face you’d run down the street

in your underwear say I won 133 million

dollars and you sit in church I want to

tell you something you didn’t just win a

trip to Hawaii you ran you want a trip

to New Jerusalem you’re going to a city

where there’s no pain no death no

suffering no sickness no temptations no

sale no devil no tears no crying no
