1
What do you do when the problem is bigger than you?
2
Our job is to go to our problems and show our problems how big God is.
3
Your problems are only problems to you.
4
They're not problems to God.
5
Because if you could do it, you wouldn't need a savior.
6
You wouldn't need him to do it.
7
Deuteronomy 9 verse 1.
8
Hear, O Israel, thou art to pass over Jordan this day, to go into possessed nations greater and mightier than thyself,
9
cities great and fenced up to heaven, a people great and all the children of anakims whom thou knowest
10
and of them thou hast heard say who can stand before the children of anak under understand therefore this day
11
that the lord thy god is he
12
which goeth over before thee as a consuming fire he shall destroy them
13
and he shall bring them down before thy face
14
so shalt thou drive them out
15
and destroy them quickly as the lord hath said unto A lot of you guys skip over,
16
if you're being honest, Deuteronomy chapter 9, because it's very difficult.
17
It's a very dry book.
18
It's hard for us to understand.
19
So I want to ask you guys, what did you guys get from just those three verses?
20
The unlock in this verse, in these three verses, is talking about one thing.
21
Problems.
22
Problems.
23
What do you mean?
24
What do you do when the problem is bigger than you, basically?
25
and you already know in yourself
26
that you cannot defeat this problem what do you do
27
when you face something
28
that you cannot handle
29
that's what god is showing in this verse here everybody in this chat in this room uh has faced
30
that has dealt with this before right it's easy to say hand
31
it over to the lord
32
it's easy to say to answer correctly right yeah just pray about it just do this but
33
if you're being honest with yourself there are many times where we genuinely pray
34
we fast we tithe we go to church
35
and it still doesn't overcome whether it's this emptiness
36
or this crippling anxiety or this depression
37
so i don't want you guys to think
38
so surface level i want you know it's a bible class
39
so we're going to go deeper into this right right so
40
when you think about this there's a debt
41
that you can't pay there's an addiction you know
42
that you couldn't overcome uh whether it's lust um whether it's it's it's envy
43
and feeling jealous
44
when people get blessed above
45
you right all of these things god is actually trying to remind us of something here right deep down
46
you know just like he says in verse one thou knowest
47
you know deuteronomy 9 1 1 1 2 3 you guys already know of these people the anakims right
48
and the people who are giants and you are
49
but grasshoppers to them it says you know these people you know you can't do it
50
but the bible says i will do it i will bring
51
you across who's i in this situation god god is about
52
to basically send his people up to the whole nations
53
that are against him
54
and they're giants they have cities walled up to heaven they say meaning they have huge fortresses right strongholds
55
that you cannot overcome you know this is pointing directly to jesus christ to god
56
and how jesus is going to overcome those strongholds right how he's going to overcome
57
that stronghold that you know fortress of addiction
58
that you're you're struggling with basically right and what's really beautiful is these people
59
which took a 13 -day track right it was supposed to take 13 days ended up taking 40 years is
60
because God is showing us that they were able to trust what they saw instead of what God said, different S's.
61
When you trust what you see versus what God says, that's when you get derailed.
62
So a lot of us are always wondering, why is God not blessing us according to our timing?
63
Nine times out of 10, it's because we see and we don't believe what he says.
64
We see and believe what we see versus believing what he says
65
and what we see never matches what he says when you can't handle it
66
and god agrees with them yes these are giants he even professes yeah they're huge
67
but what you forgot was i'm the one that's supposed to handle
68
it not you right that's the unlock here now many of us what do we do
69
when we see a situation especially
70
because we're taught this in church you must overcome you must work
71
it out you must do this you must do that now
72
when you're doing that though what happens you fail right
73
so what god wants us to learn is no no you know
74
that it's too big for you what are you supposed to do run to the thing that's bigger than you
75
and bigger than that problem right a lot of people say they go to god with their problems right All right.
76
and they tell God, look at how big my problem is.
77
I have intrusive thoughts.
78
I have emotional, you know, imbalances.
79
I have chemical imbalances.
80
I have ADHD.
81
I have things.
82
I have lust.
83
I have addiction.
84
They go to God and show God how big their problems are, right?
85
But our job is to go to our problems and show our problems how big God is.
86
Do you guys understand?
87
It has to be flipped.
88
But a lot of us, we do the opposite, right?
89
We don't tell our problems that God is greater we tell God that our problems are greater than us.
90
God is trying to remind them, hey, remember, I led you out of Egypt.
91
I did everything.
92
And so this is the reason, and these verses are the reason why God is telling us, you keep trying to fix it yourself,
93
but that was never your job.
94
You keep trying to get over the addiction.
95
You keep trying to get over the gossip.
96
You keep trying to get over the lust, the envy, the hate, the jealousy, the unforgiveness, the bitterness, the resentment,
97
whatever it is, you trying to get over it, it was never your job to get over it.
98
The reason why you can't beat your addictions, the reason why you can't beat any of the problems in your life right now,
99
and you're in a hard season right now, is because it was never meant for you to do it.
100
Because if you could do it, you wouldn't need a savior, you wouldn't need him to do it.
101
And then God says in Deuteronomy 9, I will go before thee.
102
He says it here, I'm going to go before you, meaning ahead of you.
103
I'm going to do it, essentially.
104
And what is he going to do?
105
I'm going to destroy them and bring them down so that everyone knows who I am.
106
For his sake, basically.
107
Your only job is to believe, wow, God is ahead of me.
108
Sure, it may be overtaking me now, but I'm not going to place a period where God places a comma.
109
God already said he will go before me.
110
Now I have a choice.
111
Am I going to trust my thoughts?
112
thoughts that make sense but lead me to misery thoughts the same exact thoughts
113
that are dropping me into intrusive thoughts the bondage of anxiety depression loneliness emptiness
114
or am i going to trust the word of god
115
that doesn't make sense but is the truth just
116
because something makes sense to you does not mean
117
that it's true understand and just
118
because it doesn't make sense to you doesn't mean
119
it's not true right the bible is very clear i'm gonna go before you
120
but the enemy does though is he tries to make you fight for victory right
121
but the bible has already told us
122
that no we're victorious through jesus christ unfortunately we don't believe
123
that that's why our addiction is such a big problem to us
124
and remember your problems are only problems to you they're not problems to god
125
and the bible says
126
we are more than conquerors through who through christ who strengthen us right let's go to Zechariah 4 6
127
then he answered
128
and spake unto me saying this is the word of the Lord Zerubbabel saying not by might not by power
129
but by my spirit saith the Lord of hosts so
130
when you think about this it's not about your might it's not about your power
131
it's not about your intelligence your emotional intelligence your spiritual intelligence your physical intelligence it's by what god's spirit
132
that we overcome right so god is telling us
133
that it's not nothing that you can do truly if god doesn't give you the heart to overcome things
134
then you're you're only going to be dragged that's what god is saying he has to come to your rescue
135
so our job is to lean on him you guys got
136
that right so when you think
137
when you look at let's go to first samuel as well
138
he also talks about something very very amazing here first samuel 17 47
139
and all this assembly shall know that the lord saveth not with sword and spear
140
for the battle is the lord's
141
and he will give it into our hands you know god is saying what i don't need to use sword
142
and spear either way i'm gonna win
143
and i'm gonna give it to you i'm going to give you the dub
144
so many times we have to make a decision we trust
145
and believe our thoughts or do we trust
146
and believe the word of god when you trust
147
and believe your thoughts then your thoughts become your god
148
and then you get dragged and you start to serve your thoughts as god
149
so you'll serve and you'll think about depression loneliness all day
150
if you trust it you'll think about crippling anxiety all day
151
we have to make a choice either we trust the word
152
that the word says we're gonna i'm gonna take care of it
153
or you trust your thoughts that says no you have to take care of it
154
and then when you do
155
that you fail i guess a couple questions i want
156
you guys to ask yourself in this in just these couple chapters
157
it's a couple verses i'm sorry is what giant have you been straining to beat in your with your own strength
158
what giant in your life is it a depression is it a anxiety is it addiction what are you doing
159
that you're not giving up to god to defeat
160
but you're trying to defeat
161
and then i want you to go a little bit deeper than
162
that and go why am i trying to defeat this
163
and nine times out of ten it's because of ego
164
and pride what i mean by that is you want to defeat it
165
so that you look like you defeated it you want to defeat it
166
because it glorifies you to then make you a good christian who overcame
167
and now you have a testimony
168
because you went through the test now you have a message
169
because you went through the mess
170
but all you guys have to realize is all testimonies have to point back to jesus all victories are jesus
171
and won by jesus understand
172
but nine times out of ten what we do is yes it's for jesus
173
but it's also for me right
174
because god doesn't look at your depression he doesn't look at your giants in your life your sin
175
and is shocked by it and overwhelmed and disappointed
176
that you can't overcome it he made it that way so
177
that you could never save yourself therefore you can never boast in yourself therefore you can never glorify yourself
178
and that's actually mercy right let's let's go back to deuteronomy 9
179
and let's start with verse 4 again speak not thou in thine heart after
180
that the lord thy god has cast them out from before
181
thee saying for my righteousness the lord hath brought me into possesses land
182
but for the wickedness of these nations the lord doth drive them out before thee
183
Not for thy righteousness or for the uprightness of thine heart Dost thou go to possess their land
184
But for the wickedness of these nations
185
The Lord thy God doth drive them out from before thee
186
And that he may perform the word which the Lord swore
187
Unto thy fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob Verse 6
188
Understand therefore that the Lord thy God giveth thee
189
Not this good land to possess
190
it for thy righteousness for thou are a stiff -necked people
191
do you guys know what the most dangerous lie in the bible is
192
and the dangerous lie that the bible talks about
193
and bible calls dangerous it's the lie
194
that you're a good person what god is saying in deuteronomy 9 is hey don't forget it's not
195
because you're good or you're righteous it's because i'm righteous and i'm good that's why i'm giving you this land
196
That's basically what he's saying here, right?
197
But you think good things come to you because you're good.
198
What is God saying?
199
The opposite.
200
No, you're actually wicked.
201
I just bestowed mercy and grace and pity unto you.
202
Because the moment something good happens to you, right?
203
There's a whisper that starts in your head.
204
Wow, I earned this.
205
I deserve this.
206
Wow, I'm so good.
207
You even get goosebumps and you get chills
208
if you're being real right i'm a good person
209
so of course good things have to happen to me but
210
when you when you hear that heart underneath it is pride everybody has
211
that voice and that's why in deuteronomy 9 verse 4 god cuts it off before you could even say
212
that he cuts it right away he says don't ever think it's you who did something well i'm good
213
and i imputed my righteousness unto you god says speak not thou in thine heart
214
so before it even comes out of your mouth the feeling
215
because heart is where the container that stores the feelings right
216
makes sense he's saying don't even feel it because
217
that feeling is only there because of me don't ever think it's
218
because of you that's what he's saying
219
that's the biggest deception is satan plants the feelings of hey
220
you're great hey you're good you are amazing that's why you're blessed and then
221
when you don't get blessed you tie your blessings to identity oh
222
i didn't get blessed today i didn't hear from god today
223
there must be something wrong with me oh i got blessed by god today yeah i'm doing good today
224
that is a performative faith that is a performative spiritual life
225
that is a transactional faith and a transactional spiritual life
226
which god doesn't want for my righteousness the lord hath brought me in right make sense do not ever say
227
that do not ever think
228
that that's what he's saying never think your righteousness none of us are righteous in front of god
229
there's none righteous no not one we have to remember that
230
so a person if you think about it who's caught in sin will not say
231
that they're righteous because they cannot that's why god allows us to fail
232
but a person who overcomes sin starts to think
233
that they overcame sin with their own willpower
234
and that's why they judge other people and become religious
235
and legalistic they forget that they also needed grace and mercy and i love this because If God only blessed good people,
236
let's say, then nobody would ever get blessed because none of us are good to God's standard.
237
So you got to stop believing the most flattering lie about yourself, which is I'm so great and I'm so obedient.
238
That is main character energy that is actually demonic and egotistical.
239
You're not blessed because you're good.
240
You're blessed because god is good that's what we need to write down write
241
that down right now i'm not blessed because i'm good i'm blessed
242
because he is good and a lot of the times you know
243
when i was reading this verse too these verses
244
i was thinking why does god still bless people who don't deserve
245
it well this is why this is why god blesses people who don't deserve the blessing right now
246
if we're being honest it kind of bothers everybody why do the rich get richer and the poor get poorer right
247
We tend to kind of do that, right?
248
We go around and when we look and we go, that guy doesn't deserve blessing.
249
He straight up goes against the church.
250
He doesn't even listen to the church.
251
He's still living in his sin and God allows him to live, gives him blessings.
252
So why does God keep blessing those types of people?
253
Well, Deuteronomy 9 answers this, right?
254
Look at how God describes the people.
255
He's about to hand this land and inheritance to.
256
He says, thou art a stiff -necked people, verse 6, right? right stubborn stiff neck meaning doesn't bow no respect
257
and it's true god gave them manna fire pillars of you know clouds to cover them rain
258
when they needed it water when they needed it
259
and they still were like did you bring us out here to die sound familiar he's saying
260
you guys are stubborn but i'm not you guys are unholy
261
but i'm not that's the difference here
262
and i am a god of mercy a god of redemption a god of reconciliation what does
263
that mean i have to do the things only i can do
264
because none of you guys would bless other people the way i can
265
and that's why romans four
266
or five tells us for god died for the ungodly not godly people ungodly people we are ungodly
267
that's just how it is right so you bring to the table a stiff neck stubbornness pride ego
268
expectations ungratefulness what does god bring mercy righteousness
269
and all of it through the cross this is why we say he is good not
270
that we are good if you think that god should only bless good people
271
or people who deserve it then you can't add yourself into
272
that list because you may think you deserve it
273
but god tells us you're only deserving of what hellfire
274
that's why all of us in 100 years won't be here
275
because it's insured it's guaranteed we're gonna die so
276
when i think about it i'm very thankful god very simply blesses the people who don't deserve it because
277
if he only blessed people who deserved
278
it none of us would would would be alive none of us would receive blessings
279
and definitely none of us would be in heaven
280
so god is a merciful god
281
so you gotta quit trying to deserve it essentially right you never will
282
and you never had to genuinely right from the jump it was grace
283
and that's why ephesians 2 8 to 9 tells us for
284
by grace are ye saved through faith not of works lest any man boast should we continue here
285
i think that's good i think we'll wrap
286
it here uh for the free session i think

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
