>> JOEL OSTEEN：上帝保佑
>> JOEL OSTEEN: WELL GOD BLESS YOU. IT'S A JOY TO COME INTO YOUR HOMES AND IF YOU'RE EVER IN OUR AREA, PLEASE STOP BY AND BE A PART OF ONE OF OUR SERVICES. I'LL PROMISE YOU, WE'LL MAKE YOU FEEL RIGHT AT HOME. I LIKE TO START WITH SOMETHING FUNNY AND I HEARD ABOUT THIS SCIENTIST. HE SAID TO GOD, "WE'VE DECIDED WE NO LONGER NEED YOU. WE CAN CLONE PEOPLE, TRANSPLANT HEARTS, DO ALL KINDS OF THINGS ONCE CONSIDERED MIRACULOUS." GOD SAID, "FINE, BUT TO PROVE YOU DON'T NEED ME, LET'S HAVE A MAN-MAKING CONTEST. THE ONLY REQUIREMENT IS YOU HAVE TO MAKE MAN OUT OF DIRT." THE SCIENTIST SAID GREAT AND REACHED DOWN TO PICK UP A HANDFUL OF DIRT. GOD SAID, "NOT SO FAST. GO GET YOUR OWN DIRT." SAY IT LIKE YOU MEAN IT. THIS IS MY BIBLE. I AM WHAT IT SAYS I AM. I HAVE WHAT IT SAYS I HAVE. I CAN DO WHAT IT SAYS I CAN DO. TODAY I WILL BE TAUGHT THE WORD OF GOD. I BOLDLY CONFESS, MY MIND IS ALERT, MY HEART IS RECEPTIVE. I WILL NEVER BE THE SAME. IN JESUS' NAME. GOD BLESS YOU. I WANT TO TALK TO YOU TODAY ABOUT CHANGE YOUR NAME. IT'S EASY TO GO THROUGH LIFE LETTING PEOPLE PUT NAMES ON US. THINGS LIKE AVERAGE, UNQUALIFIED, POOR, ADDICTED. SOMETIMES OUR OWN THOUGHTS HAVE NAMED US. NOT TALENTED, NOT GOOD ENOUGH, UNATTRACTIVE. AS LONG AS WE'RE WEARING THESE NAMES, BELIEVING THE LIES THAT PEOPLE AND CIRCUMSTANCES HAVE TOLD US, IT'S GOING TO KEEP US FROM OUR POTENTIAL. YOU HAVE TO CHANGE YOUR NAME. I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT ON YOUR BIRTH CERTIFICATE. I'M TALKING ABOUT IN YOUR MIND. WHO DO YOU BELIEVE YOU ARE? HOW DO YOU SEE YOURSELF? WHEN GOD BREATHED LIFE INTO YOU HE NAMED YOU BLESSED, PROSPEROUS, TALENTED, ONE OF A KIND. HE CALLS YOU A MASTERPIECE. PEOPLE WILL CALL YOU AVERAGE, ORDINARY, NOTHING SPECIAL. IF YOU ACCEPT THOSE NAMES, YOU'LL BE AVERAGE, ORDINARY, NOTHING SPECIAL. WHAT'S HOLDING MANY PEOPLE BACK IS THEY HAVE THE WRONG NAME. A MAN WAS WALKING DOWN A BUSY STREET IN THAILAND, AND HE CAME UPON THIS TATTOO SHOP. IN THE WINDOW, THERE WERE MANY OF THE TATTOOS THEY OFFERED. ONE SAID "BORN TO LOSE." HE COULDN'T BELIEVE ANYONE WOULD HAVE THAT TATTOOED ON THEM. THE OWNER CAME UP. THEY STRUCK UP A CONVERSATION. HE ASKED THE OWNER IF ANYONE EVER GOT THE "BORN TO LOSE" TATTOO. THE OWNER NODDED HIS HEAD YES, AND SAID IN BROKEN ENGLISH, "BEFORE TATTOOED ON BODY, TATTOOED ON MIND." HE'S EXACTLY RIGHT. IF YOU ACCEPT THE NAME IN YOUR MIND, IF YOU BELIEVE NEGATIVE THINGS PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN OVER YOU, IF YOU LET LIFE NAME YOU, YOU'RE GIVING IT THE RIGHT TO COME TO PASS. IN YOUR MIND IS YOUR NAME BORN TO LOSE OR BORN TO WIN? IS YOUR NAME POOR, BROKE, DEFEATED, OR IS YOUR NAME BLESSED, PROSPEROUS, MORE THAN ENOUGH? HAVE YOU LET LIFE NAME YOU ADDICTED, STRUGGLING, LIMITED OR DO YOU GO BY WHAT GOD NAMES YOU? FREE, WHOLE, VICTORIOUS, OVERCOMER. ANYTHING THAT'S TELLING YOU OTHERWISE, YOU NEED TO CHANGE THOSE NAMES. IN THE SCRIPTURE, JACOB'S WIFE, RACHEL DIED WHILE GIVING BIRTH TO THEIR SECOND SON. THE BABY WAS BORN FINE, BUT SHE WAS IN SO MUCH PAIN, JUST BEFORE SHE DIED, SHE NAMED THE BABY BENONI, WHICH MEANS SON OF MY SORROW. HERE THE LITTLE BABY HAD DONE NOTHING WRONG, BUT HE WAS GOING TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH LIFE BEING CALLED SON OF SORROW. AND BACK IN THOSE DAYS THE NAMES THEY GAVE PEOPLE WERE MUCH MORE SIGNIFICANT THAN TODAY. THOSE NAMES COULD LITERALLY DETERMINE THE PERSON'S DESTINY. IT SEEMED LIKE FOR LITTLE BENONI ONLY IT'S JUST BAD LUCK. HIS MOTHER WAS IN PAIN. SHE TOOK OUT HER MISERY ON HIM. SHE PRONOUNCED THAT HE WOULD LIVE A PAINFUL, SORROWFUL, DEPRESSING LIFE. AND SOMETIMES THE PEOPLE THAT SHOULD'VE BEEN SPEAKING FAITH INTO YOU, NAMING YOU TALENTED, VALUABLE, MASTERPIECE HAVE DONE JUST THE OPPOSITE BECAUSE THEY WERE HURTING, BECAUSE THEY WERE IN PAIN, THEY NAMED YOU LESS THAN, NOT GOOD ENOUGH. THEY MAY NOT HAVE SAID IT, BUT HOW THEY MADE YOU FEEL, PUTTING YOU DOWN, NOT SHOWING YOU LOVE AND AFFECTION. THE GOOD NEWS IS WHAT GOD NAMES YOU OVERRIDES WHAT PEOPLE NAME YOU. THEY MAY NAME YOU SON OF SORROW, SON OF PAIN, SON OF DEFEAT. GOD NAMES YOU SON OF VICTORY, SON OF FAVOR, SON OF BLESSING. DON'T LET THE NEGATIVE THINGS PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN OVER YOU, HOW YOU WERE RAISED, WHAT YOU DIDN'T GET, DETERMINE YOUR DESTINY. CHANGE YOUR NAME. A FEW MINUTES AFTER RACHEL DIED, JACOB CAME RUNNING IN. THE NURSES HANDED HIM THE BABY AND SAID HERE'S YOUR SON. HIS NAME IS BENONI. WHEN JACOB HEARD THAT, SOMETHING ROSE UP ON THE INSIDE. HE SAID, "NO THAT IS NOT HIS NAME. NO MATTER WHAT'S HAPPENED IN THE PAST, NO MATTER WHAT SOMEONE ELSE SAID, HE WILL NOT BE CALLED SON OF SORROW. HIS NAME IS BENJAMIN." BENJAMIN MEANS SON OF STRENGTH, SON OF POWER. IN THAT ONE MOMENT, WITH THAT ONE NAME CHANGE, HE WENT FROM SON OF SORROW TO SON OF STRENGTH. BENJAMIN WENT ON TO BECOME A GREAT LEADER. OUT OF HIS GENES, HIS FAMILY LINE, CAME THE KINGS OF ISRAEL. ONE KING AFTER ANOTHER. GOD HAD A GREAT ASSIGNMENT FOR BENJAMIN BUT HE KNEW IF HE HAD GONE THROUGH LIFE BEING CALLED SON OF SORROW THAT WOULD'VE GOTTEN ON THE INSIDE. HE WOULD'VE SEEN HIMSELF AS LIMITED AND DEFEATED. SO GOD STEPPED UP AND SAID, "NO HE WILL NOT BE THE SON OF SORROW. HE IS NOT THE SON OF DEFEAT. THIS CHILD IS A SON OF DESTINY. THIS CHILD HAS GREATNESS IN HIM." NOW MAYBE SOMEONE HAS TRIED TO NAME YOU AVERAGE, UNQUALIFIED, UNATTRACTIVE, TOO MANY MISTAKES. GOD IS SAYING TO YOU, WHAT HE SAID TO BENJAMIN. "I'M CHANGING YOUR NAME. NO MORE SON OF SORROW, NO MORE SON OF NOT GOOD ENOUGH, I'M RENAMING YOU SON OF STRENGTH, DAUGHTER OF DESTINY, CHILD OF GREATNESS." NOW YOU HAVE TO DO YOUR PART AND GET RID OF THE OLD NAMES. THE ENEMY WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO LIVE AS THE SON OF SORROW, WHEN GOD HAS CALLED YOU THE SON OF STRENGTH. HE KNOWS WHAT'S IN YOU. THAT'S WHY HE'S BEEN FIGHTING YOU SINCE YOU WERE A LITTLE CHILD TRYING TO CHANGE YOUR NAME, THROUGH PEOPLE, THROUGH DISAPPOINTMENTS, THROUGH YOUR OWN MISTAKES AND FAILURES. BUT WHEN YOU LEARN TO CHANGE YOUR NAME BACK TO WHO YOU WERE CREATED TO BE, ALL THE FORCES OF DARKNESS CANNOT STOP YOU. WHEN YOU KNOW YOU'RE A SON OF STRENGTH, EQUIPPED AND EMPOWERED, TALENTED AND CREATIVE, SURROUNDED BY GOD'S FAVOR WITH ROYAL BLOOD FLOWING THROUGH YOUR VEINS, THEN DOORS WILL OPEN THAT NO MAN CAN SHUT. THE RIGHT PEOPLE WILL SUDDENLY SHOW UP. YOU WILL OVERCOME OBSTACLES THAT LOOK TOO BIG. WHEN YOU HAVE THE RIGHT NAME, YOU'LL GO FURTHER THAN YOU EVER IMAGINED. I KNOW A MAN THAT WAS TOLD BY HIS HIGH SCHOOL COUNSELOR HE WASN'T VERY SMART AND THAT HE SHOULD PURSUE THE LOWEST SKILL JOB THAT HE COULD FIND. THE COUNSELOR MAY HAVE MEANT WELL, BUT PEOPLE DON'T KNOW WHAT'S IN YOU. THEY CAN'T SEE YOUR SEEDS OF GREATNESS. THAT'S WHY DAVID'S FATHER LEFT DAVID OUT IN THE SHEPHERD'S FIELDS. WHEN THE PROPHET CAME TO ANOINT ONE OF THE SONS AS THE NEXT KING. DAVID SEEMED ORDINARY. HE WASN'T LIKE HIS OLDER BROTHER ELIAB. HE WAS TALL, HANDSOME. HE LOOKED LIKE A KING. DAVID'S FATHER THOUGHT DAVID WILL NEVER AMOUNT TO MUCH. NOTHING SPECIAL ABOUT HIM. HE NAMED DAVID AVERAGE, BUT GOD NAMED HIM GIANT KILLER. HE NAMED HIM A SHEPHERD BOY. GOD NAMED HIM A HISTORY MAKER. HIS FATHER NAMED DAVID NOT GOING TO AMOUNT TO MUCH. GOD NAMED HIM KING OF ISRAEL. DON'T LET WHAT PEOPLE CAN'T SEE IN YOU TALK YOU OUT OF WHO YOU KNOW YOU ARE. THIS COUNSELOR DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING SPECIAL IN THIS YOUNG MAN. HE NAMED HIM BELOW AVERAGE, NOT TALENTED, BARELY GETTING BY. FOR 30 YEARS, THIS MAN BELIEVED THOSE LIES. HE WENT AROUND THINKING I'M NOT SMART ENOUGH. I'M NOT UP TO PAR. I DON'T HAVE WHAT OTHERS HAVE. HE WORKED AT THE LOCAL FACTORY AND STAYED AT THE LOWEST LEVEL POSITION YEAR AFTER YEAR. ONE DAY THAT FACTORY CLOSED. HE WENT ACROSS TOWN TO ANOTHER FACTORY AND APPLIED FOR A JOB. THEY HAD A POLICY THAT EVERY APPLICANT HAD TO TAKE AN IQ TEST. HE TOOK THE TEST. HIS SCORE CAME BACK AT A GENIUS LEVEL. THE OWNER CALLED HIM AND SAID WHAT ARE YOU DOING APPLYING FOR THIS LOW LEVEL POSITION. YOU'VE SCORED HIGHER THAN ANYONE IN OUR COMPANY'S 60 YEAR HISTORY. THAT DAY, A STRONGHOLD WAS BROKEN IN HIS MIND. HE REALIZE WHAT THAT COUNSELOR COULDN'T SEE IN HIM DID NOT DEFINE WHO HE WAS. AND WHAT PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN OVER YOU OR WHAT THEY HAVEN'T SPOKEN OVER YOU HASN'T CHANGED WHAT'S IN YOU. IT DIDN'T LESSEN YOUR POTENTIAL. THE GREATNESS IS STILL IN THERE. HE DID WHAT I'M ASKING US TO DO. HE CHANGED HIS NAME. NO MORE NOT GOOD ENOUGH. NO MORE NOT TALENTED. HE STARTED SEEING HIMSELF AS BRIGHT, AS VALUABLE, AS ONE WITH SEEDS OF GREATNESS. AND EVENTUALLY HE STARTED HIS OWN COMPANY. HE WENT ON TO INVENT SEVERAL PRODUCTS THAT ARE NOW PATENTED AND VERY SUCCESSFUL. YOU CAN'T STOP PEOPLE FROM SAYING NEGATIVE THINGS, BUT I'VE LEARNED YOU ARE NOT WHAT PEOPLE CALL YOU, YOU ARE WHAT YOU ANSWER TO. THEY MAY CALL YOU UNATTRACTIVE, UNQUALIFIED, NOT UP TO PAR. THAT'S FINE. JUST DON'T ANSWER TO IT. WHEN THOUGHTS SAY HELLO FEARFUL, HELLO DEPRESSED, HELLO INSECURE-- YOU MUST NOT BE TALKING TO ME, THAT'S NOT WHO I AM. I AM CONFIDENT. I AM SECURE. I AM VICTORIOUS. WELL HELLO SICK, HELLO LIMITED, HELLO CHRONIC PAIN. SORRY, THERE'S NO ONE HERE BY THAT NAME. YOU MUST HAVE THE WRONG ADDRESS. I AM HEALTHY, WHOLE, ENERGETIC. THAT'S WHO LIVES HERE. ARE YOU ANSWERING TO SOMETHING THAT YOU'RE NOT? QUIT GIVING YOUR TIME AND ENERGY LETTING THOSE NEGATIVE THOUGHTS PLAY. THAT IS NOT WHO YOU ARE. WHEN THOUGHTS WHISPER, "YOU DON'T DESERVE TO BE BLESSED. YOU MADE TOO MANY MISTAKES. YOU'RE UNWORTHY." RECOGNIZE WHAT'S HAPPENING. THEY'RE TRYING TO RENAME YOU. WHEN YOU HEAR FORGIVEN, REDEEMED, RESTORED, THAT'S WHEN YOU NEED TO LISTEN. WELL, HELLO UNQUALIFIED, INEXPERIENCED, LESS THAN. EXCUSE ME? DO YOU MEAN ANOINTED, HIGHLY FAVORED, WELL ABLE? THAT'S WHO I AM. WHEN THOUGHTS TELL YOU YOU'RE NOT ATTRACTIVE, NOBODY WANTS TO BE AROUND YOU, YOU DON'T HAVE A GOOD PERSONALITY, YOU'RE TOO TALL, TOO SHORT. DON'T GIVE THAT THE TIME OF DAY. WHEN YOU HEAR HELLO MASTERPIECE, HELLO GOOD LOOKING, HELLO TALL, DARK AND HANDSOME. YES, HOW CAN I HELP YOU? NOW YOU'RE CALLING MY NAME. ANSWER TO VICTORIOUS. ANSWER TO FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE. ANSWER TO OVERCOMER. GROWING UP, MY FRIENDS AT SCHOOL USED TO CALL ME PEANUT BECAUSE I WAS VERY SMALL. NOBODY SAID IT IN A DEROGATORY SENSE, BUT I CAN TELL YOU IT DIDN'T HELP MY SELF ESTEEM. ALL THROUGH THE DAY, "HEY, PEANUT, HOW'S IT GOIN?'" PLAYIN' BASKETBALL, "PEANUT PASS ME THE BALL." I COULDN'T STOP THEM FROM CALLING ME PEANUT, BUT I NEVER LET PEANUT GET ON THE INSIDE. I DIDN'T LET THEM CHANGE WHO I KNEW I WAS. YES, I WAS SMALL, BUT DEEP DOWN I KNEW THERE WAS A HISTORY MAKER IN ME. I WASN'T AS STRONG AS SOME OF MY FRIENDS, BUT I KNEW THERE WAS A GIANT KILLER ON THE INSIDE. THEY COULDN'T SEE IT. ALL THEY COULD SEE WAS PEANUT, BUT I NEVER LET PEANUT TAKE ROOT IN ME. EVEN GOING INTO HIGH SCHOOL. MY FRESHMAN YEAR I WAS 4 FEET 11 INCHES TALL. I GREW A LOT AFTER HIGH SCHOOL, BUT YOU CAN IMAGINE AT MY BASKETBALL GAMES, PEOPLE SAY, "LOOK AT THAT LITTLE KID. LOOK HOW SMALL HE IS." I NEVER SAW MYSELF THAT WAY. I MAY HAVE BEEN 4 FEET 11 ON THE OUTSIDE, BUT ON THE INSIDE I STOOD 7 FEET TALL. PEOPLE CAN CALL YOU A LOT OF THINGS, BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO LET IT GET IN YOU. GO BACK TO WHAT GOD SAYS ABOUT YOU. LET YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER NAME YOU, NOT PEOPLE, NOT YOUR MISTAKES, NOT YOUR PAST. GOD CALLS YOU EXCEPTIONAL. HE CALLS YOU REDEEMED AND FORGIVEN. HE CALLS YOU HEALTHY AND WHOLE. HE CALLS YOU A MASTERPIECE, A GIANT KILLER, A HISTORY MAKER. NOW DO YOUR PART AND LET WHAT HE NAMES YOU OVERRIDE ALL THE OTHER NAMES. YOUR ASSIGNMENT IS TOO IMPORTANT TO GO THROUGH LIFE WEARING NAMES LIKE INFERIOR, UNQUALIFIED, AVERAGE. I'M ASKING YOU TO CHANGE THOSE NAMES AND GET IN AGREEMENT WITH GOD. A FRIEND OF MINE GREW UP IN EL SALVADOR. HIS FATHER WAS AN ALCOHOLIC AND WOULD BECOME VERY VIOLENT WHEN HE WAS DRINKING. HIS MOTHER MOVED TO THE UNITED STATES WHEN HE WAS A SMALL CHILD. HE WAS RAISED BY HIS GRANDPARENTS. AS A YOUNG BOY HE FELT LOST AND CONFUSED. HE DID VERY POORLY IN SCHOOL. HE DIDN'T INTERACT SOCIALLY WITH PEOPLE. ONE DAY, HE OVERHEARD HIS GRANDPARENTS TALKING ABOUT HOW HE WAS MENTALLY IMPAIRED. HOW HE WAS A SLOW LEARNER, HOW HE NEEDED HELP. THEY SENT HIM TO A PSYCHIATRIST AND HE CONFIRMED THAT THE LITTLE BOY HAD ALL THESE LEARNING DISABILITIES. HE WAS TOLD AGAIN AND AGAIN HE WOULD NEVER AMOUNT TO MUCH. HE WASN'T TALENTED. HE WASN'T SMART ENOUGH. AT 10 YEARS OLD HE WAS ABOUT TO MOVE BACK TO THE STATES WITH HIS MOTHER. HE TOLD HIS GRANDFATHER THAT HE NEEDED AN AMERICAN NAME. HE HAD NEVER HEARD HIS GRANDFATHER SAY ONE GOOD THING ABOUT HIM, BUT HIS GRANDFATHER LOOKED UP IN THE AIR AND STARTED THINKING. HE SAID, "OKAY, SON, THIS NAME NEEDS TO BE SOMETHING VERY STRONG. SOMETHING THAT SAYS HONOR. SOMETHING THAT SAYS VALOR. IT NEEDS TO BE THE NAME OF A GREAT LEADER, OF A GENIUS, OF SOMEONE THAT WILL IMPACT THE WORLD." HE SAID, "I'VE GOT IT. YOUR NEW NAME WILL BE ERWIN." WELL, THE LITTLE BOY HAD NEVER HEARD THE NAME ERWIN. HE DIDN'T LIKE THAT NAME. HE WANTED A NORMAL AMERICAN NAME LIKE JOHN OR BILL. OVER THE YEARS HE MOVED FROM STATE TO STATE WITH HIS MOTHER. HE COULD'VE CHANGED HIS NAME AT ANYTIME, BUT HE WOULDN'T DO IT. AS MUCH AS HE DIDN'T LIKE HIS NEW NAME, WHAT MADE HIM KEEP IT IS THAT WAS THE ONLY TIME HE HAD EVER HEARD ANYONE SAY HE WAS GOING TO DO SOMETHING GREAT. HIS GRANDPARENTS, TEACHERS, COUNSELORS, NEVER ENCOURAGED HIM, BUT THAT DAY HE HEARD THAT HE WAS GOING TO IMPACT THE WORLD, THAT HE WOULD BE A PERSON OF HONOR AND VALOR, THAT THAT WAS THE NAME OF A GENIUS. HE KNEW ALL THE NEGATIVE THINGS SAID ABOUT HIM, BUT THIS DAY SOMEONE WAS SAYING HE WAS EXCEPTIONAL, THAT HE HAD SEEDS OF GREATNESS. AND EVERY TIME HE WAS TEMPTED TO SWING BACK, SETTLE FOR MEDIOCRITY, HE WOULD REMEMBER WHAT HIS GRANDFATHER SAID THE NAMED ERWIN REPRESENTED. TODAY, OUR FRIEND ERWIN MCMANUS IS AN AMAZING PASTOR, AUTHOR, FILMMAKER. ONE OF THE BRIGHTEST MINDS AROUND BUT I WONDER IF WE WOULD HAVE EVER HEARD OF ERWIN. I WONDER IF HIS GIFTS WOULD HAVE EVER COME OUT IF HE HAD NOT CHANGED HIS NAME. IF HIS GRANDFATHER HAD NOT REMINDED HIM WHO HE REALLY WAS, NOT WHO PEOPLE SAID HE WAS, NOT WHO THE EXPERTS SAID HE WAS, NOT WHO THE ENVIRONMENT SAID HE WAS, BUT WHO GOD SAID HE WAS, A MASTERPIECE, VALUABLE, TALENTED WITH SEEDS OF GREATNESS. MAYBE LIKE WITH ERWIN, NO ONE HAS EVER TOLD YOU WHO YOU REALLY ARE. LIFE HAS PUT SOME NAMES ON YOU, TOLD YOU WHAT YOU CAN'T DO, WHAT YOU'RE NOT, HOW YOU'VE MADE TOO MANY MISTAKES. GOD HAS YOU HEARING THIS BECAUSE HE WANTS YOU TO CHANGE YOUR NAME. NO MORE MEDIOCRE. NO MORE BORN TO LOSE THERE. IS GREATNESS IN YOU. WHEN GOD CREATED YOU, HE PUT A PART OF HIMSELF IN YOU. HE'S EQUIPPED YOU, EMPOWERED YOU, AND ANOINTED YOU. HE CROWNED YOU WITH HIS FAVOR. YOUR NEW NAMES ARE BLESSED, PROSPEROUS, WELL ABLE, FORGIVEN, TALENTED, ONE OF A KIND, A MASTERPIECE. WHEN GOD GAVE ABRAHAM AND SARAH THE PROMISE THAT THEY WERE GOING TO HAVE A BABY, THEY WERE BOTH WAY TOO OLD. IT LOOKED IMPOSSIBLE, BUT GOD DID SOMETHING UNUSUAL. HE DIDN'T JUST GIVE THEM THE PROMISE, HE CHANGED THEIR NAMES FROM ABRAM TO ABRAHAM. ABRAHAM MEANS FATHER OF MANY NATIONS. WHEN GOD CHANGED HIS NAME, THEY DIDN'T HAVE ONE CHILD. YET EVERY TIME SOMEONE SAID, "HELLO, ABRAHAM," THEY WERE SAYING, "HELLO FATHER OF MANY NATIONS." THEY WERE SPEAKING FAITH INTO HIS DESTINY. WHAT YOU CONTINUALLY HEAR STARTS TO GET DOWN ON THE INSIDE. THAT'S WHY IT'S SO IMPORTANT TO HAVE THE RIGHT NAMES. I AM BLESSED. I AM TALENTED. I AM HEALTHY. WELL JOEL, I DON'T FEEL HEALTHY. WELL KEEP CALLING YOURSELF THAT. THAT'S WHAT ALLOWS IT TO HAPPEN. I DON'T FEEL BLESSED. I'M IN DEBT. I'M STRUGGLING. I'VE GOT THESE BILLS. YOU'RE RIGHT WHERE ABRAHAM WAS. HE COULD'VE SAID, WE DON'T HAVE ANY CHILDREN. WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE A BABY. GOD, MY WIFE HAS GONE THROUGH THE CHANGE OF LIFE. THAT'S WHY GOD CHANGED HIS NAME, SO HE WOULD HEAR IT AGAIN AND AGAIN. YOU'RE THE FATHER OF MANY NATIONS. YOU MAY NOT FEEL BLESSED. YOU'RE TEMPTED TO TALK ABOUT WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE, HOW IT'S NOT GOING TO IMPROVE, THAT'S WHY YOU'RE HERE. GOD IS CHANGING YOUR NAME FROM LACK, FROM STRUGGLE, FROM NOT ENOUGH, TO BLESSED, TO PROSPEROUS, TO MORE THAN ENOUGH. NOW YOU HAVE TO KEEP CALLING YOURSELF WHAT GOD SAYS ABOUT YOU. MAY NOT HAPPEN OVERNIGHT. ABRAHAM WAITED FOR YEARS. BUT EVERY TIME YOU CALL YOURSELF WHAT GOD NAMED YOU, IT'S GETTING DEEPER ON THE INSIDE. IT'S CHANGING YOUR SELF IMAGE. IT'S REPROGRAMMING YOUR THINKING. I'M SURE MANY TIMES ABRAHAM THOUGHT, "WE'RE NEVER GOING TO HAVE A BABY." ABOUT THAT TIME SOMEONE WOULD WALK UP AND CALL HIS NAME. HEY, ABRAHAM. HE WOULD BE REMINDED YOU'RE THE FATHER OF MANY NATIONS. YOU HAVE TO CALL YOURSELF BLESSED BEFORE YOU'LL EVER BE BLESSED. YOU HAVE TO CALL YOURSELF HEALTHY, WHILE YOU'RE STILL FIGHTING THE ILLNESS. CALL YOURSELF FREE WHILE YOU'RE STILL STRUGGLING WITH THE ADDICTION. HAVING THE RIGHT NAMES IS WHAT'S GOING TO HELP YOU TO STAND STRONG SO YOU CAN BECOME WHAT GOD SAYS ABOUT YOU. GOD CHANGED SARAH'S NAME FROM SARAI TO SARAH. SARAH MEANS PRINCESS. IF ANYONE DIDN'T FEEL LIKE A PRINCESS IT WOULD'VE BEEN SARAH. SHE HAD BEEN BARREN FOR OVER 80 YEARS. SHE DIDN'T FEEL ATTRACTIVE, DIDN'T FEEL SPECIAL. EVERYTHING TOLD HER, YOU'RE FINISHED. YOU'LL NEVER HAVE A BABY. SHE COULD'VE SAID, "DON'T CHANGE MY NAME. JUST CALL ME, SARAI. I AM NOT A PRINCESS, THAT'S NOT GOING TO DO ANY GOOD." NO, SHE ACCEPTED THE NAME CHANGE. SHE SAID IN EFFECT, THIS SEEMS IMPOSSIBLE. THE ODDS ARE AGAINST ME, BUT IF GOD SAYS I'M A PRINCESS, THEN I'M GOING TO GET IN AGREEMENT WITH HIM. EVERY TIME SOMEONE SAID GOOD MORNING, SARAH, THEY WERE SAYING GOOD MORNING PRINCESS. SHE HEARD THAT SO MANY TIMES SOMETHING BEGAN TO COME ALIVE ON THE INSIDE. FAITH STARTED TO RISE UP. IT WASN'T LONG AFTER THAT BEFORE THE PROMISE CAME TO PASS. YOU MAY HAVE SITUATIONS THAT YOU DON'T SEE HOW IT COULD WORK OUT IN YOUR HEALTH, YOUR CAREER, A RELATIONSHIP. WHAT YOU'RE UP AGAINST LOOKS PERMANENT. LIKE WITH ABRAHAM AND SARAH, GOD IS CHANGING YOUR NAME. YOU'VE HAD THAT ADDICTION FOR YEARS, GOD IS CALLING YOU FREE. YOU HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO HAVE A BABY. YOU'VE BEEN BARREN. GOD IS CALLING THE FRUIT OF YOUR WOMB BLESSED. HE'S CALLING YOU A MOTHER. YOUR DREAM SEEMS TOO BIG. YOU DON'T HAVE THE EXPERIENCE, THE TRAINING. GOD IS CALLING YOU SUCCESSFUL. HE'S CALLING YOU BOUNTIFUL, FLOURISHING, ABUNDANT. NOW THE WHOLE KEY IS WILL YOU DO LIKE THEM AND ACCEPT THE NAME CHANGE. WILL YOU KEEP CALLING YOURSELF WHAT GOD CALLS YOU, EVEN WHEN IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE? EVERY TIME YOU DO IT, IT'S GETTING STRONGER ON THE INSIDE AND EVENTUALLY YOU'RE GOING TO BECOME WHAT GOD NAMED YOU. LUKE CHAPTER 1, AN ANGEL APPEARED TO ZECHARIAH AND TOLD HIM THAT HIS WIFE ELIZABETH WAS GOING TO HAVE A BABY THAT THEY WERE TO NAME JOHN. WELL, LIKE SARAH, ELIZABETH WAS WAY TOO OLD. ZECHARIAH ASKED THE ANGEL HOW IT COULD HAPPEN. THE ANGEL ASSURED HIM THAT WHAT GOD PROMISED WOULD COME TO PASS, BUT BECAUSE ZECHARIAH DOUBTED HE WOULD REMAINED SILENT UNTIL THE BABY WAS BORN. FROM THAT MOMENT ON HE COULDN'T SPEAK. NINE MONTHS LATER ELIZABETH GAVE BIRTH TO A BABY BOY. THE FAMILY, THE RELATIVES WERE SO EXCITED, THEY CAME OVER TO THE HOUSE TO CELEBRATE. 1:59 SAYS THEY WANTED TO NAME THE SON ZECHARIAH AFTER HIS FATHER. GOD SAID HIS NAME IS JOHN BUT THEY WANTED TO NAME HIM SOMETHING DIFFERENT. WE ALL HAVE SOME THEYS IN LIFE. PEOPLE THAT WILL TRY TO NAME YOU SOMETHING THAT YOU'RE NOT. THEY MAY BE WELL MEANING. WHEN MY FATHER WAS A TEENAGER, HIS PARENTS TOLD HIM THAT HE COULDN'T BECOME A MINISTER. THAT ALL HE KNEW HOW TO DO WAS PICK COTTON. GOD NAMED HIM A PASTOR, BUT THEY NAMED HIM LESS THAN, NOT UP TO PAR. IF HE WOULD'VE ACCEPTED THEIR NAMES HE WOULD'VE NEVER IMPACTED THE WORLD. DON'T LET THEY NAME YOU. LET GOD NAME YOU. ELIZABETH SAID TO THEM, "NO, HIS NAME WILL NOT BE ZECHARIAH. HIS NAME WILL BE JOHN." THEY SAID, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN? NOBODY IN YOUR FAMILY IS NAMED JOHN. THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE." THEY WENT TO ZECHARIAH THE FATHER TO ASK HIM WHAT THE BABY'S NAME WOULD BE. HE STILL COULDN'T SPEAK. SO HE WROTE ON A TABLET. HIS NAME IS JOHN. AND SUDDENLY HE WAS ABLE TO SPEAK AGAIN. BUT WHAT'S INTERESTING IS THE MOTHER COULDN'T NAME THE BABY. WOMEN IN THOSE DAYS DIDN'T HAVE THE INFLUENCE THAT THEY HAVE TODAY. THE FAMILY, THE FRIENDS, THE NEIGHBORS, THEY COULDN'T NAME THE CHILD. THE ONLY ONE THAT HAD THE AUTHORITY TO NAME THE BABY WAS THE FATHER. THEY HAD TO GO FIND ZECHARIAH TO SEE WHAT THE CHILD'S NAME WOULD BE. THE PRINCIPLE IS YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER IS THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS THE RIGHT TO NAME YOU. DON'T GO THROUGH LIFE LETTING OTHER PEOPLE PUT THEIR NAMES ON YOU. THEY'LL TRY TO NAME YOU ADDICTED, STRUGGLING, DEFEATED. GOD NAMES YOU FREE, WHOLE, VICTORIOUS. THE DAYS WILL NAME YOU AVERAGE, MEDIOCRE. GOD NAMED YOU A MASTERPIECE, ONE OF A KIND, EXCEPTIONAL. PEOPLE WILL TRY TO NAME YOU WASHED UP, TOO MANY MISTAKES. GOD NAMED YOU FORGIVEN, REDEEMED, AND RESTORED. HAVE YOU LET THE THEYS NAME YOU? HAVE YOU LET LIFE CONVINCE YOU WHO YOU ARE, LETTING THOSE NEGATIVE THOUGHTS TELL YOU THAT THERE'S NOTHING GOOD IN YOUR FUTURE? LIKE WITH ABRAHAM AND SARAH, RIGHT NOW GOD IS CHANGING YOUR NAME. YOUR NEW NAMES ARE BLESSED, PROSPEROUS, ONE OF A KIND, VALUABLE, CHILD OF THE MOST HIGH. NOW DO YOUR PART AND ACCEPT THE NAME CHANGE. TUNE OUT ALL THE NEGATIVE AND KEEP CALLING YOURSELF WHAT GOD CALLS YOU. IF YOU'LL DO THIS I BELIEVE AND DECLARE STRONGHOLDS THAT HAVE HELD YOU BACK ARE BEING BROKEN. YOU ARE ABOUT TO STEP UP TO WHO YOU WERE CREATED TO BE, NEW LEVELS OF INFLUENCE, FAVOR, RESTORATION, HEALING, THE FULLNESS OF YOUR DESTINY IN JESUS' NAME. IF YOU RECEIVE IT CAN YOU SAY AMEN TODAY. BUT I'D LIKE TO GIVE YOU AN OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE JESUS THE LORD OF YOUR LIFE. WOULD YOU PRAY WITH ME? JUST SAY, LORD JESUS, I REPENT OF MY SINS. COME INTO MY HEART. I MAKE YOU MY LORD AND SAVIOR. FRIENDS, IF YOU PRAYED THAT SIMPLE PRAYER, WE BELIEVE YOU GOT BORN AGAIN. GET IN A GOOD BIBLE-BASED CHURCH. KEEP GOD FIRST PLACE. > JOEL: THANKS FOR WATCHING THIS MESSAGE. I HOPE YOU ENJOYED IT.

你。
走進您的家是一種
快樂，如果您曾經在
我們的地區，請停下來並成為
我們
服務的一部分。
我向你保證，我們會讓
你有賓至如歸的感覺。
我喜歡從一些有趣的事情開始
，我
聽說過這位科學家。
他對上帝說：“
我們決定不再需要
你。
我們可以克隆人，
移植
心臟，做各種曾經被認為是奇蹟的事情。”
上帝說：“好吧，但為了證明
你不需要我，我們來
一場人造人比賽
。唯一的要求是你必須讓
男人
擺脫泥土。”
科學家說得
很好，伸手去撿了一把泥土。
上帝說，“不要那麼快。
去拿你自己的土。”
照你的意思說。
這是我的聖經。
我就是它所說的我。
我有它所說的我有的。
我可以做它說我可以做的事情
。
今天我將學習
上帝的話語。
我大膽地承認，我的頭腦是
警覺的，我的心是樂於接受的。
我以後不會再像以前一樣。
以耶穌的名義。
上帝祝福你。
我今天想和你
談談改變你的名字。
讓人們為我們
命名是一件很容易的
事。
諸如平均，
不合格，貧窮，上癮之類的事情。
有時我們自己的想法已經命名了
我們。
沒有才華，不夠好，沒有
吸引力。
只要我們穿著這些名字，相信人們和環境告訴我們的謊言，它就會讓
我們失去潛力。
你必須改變你的名字。
我不是在談論你的
出生證明。
我在談論你的
想法。
你相信你是誰？
你如何看待自己？
當上帝將生命
吹入你的內心時，他稱你為有福、
繁榮、有才華、獨一無二
的人。
他稱你為傑作。
人們會稱你為
普通的、普通的、沒有什麼特別的。
如果你接受這些名字，
你將是普通的、普通的、
沒有什麼特別的。
讓許多人退縮的
是他們的
名字錯誤。
一個男人走在泰國一條
繁忙的街道上，他來到了這家紋身店。
在櫥窗裡
，有
很多他們提供的紋身。
一個人說“生來就輸”。
他無法相信任何人
會在他們身上紋上那個
紋身。
主人上來了。
他們展開
了對話。
他問店主是否
有人有過“生而為人”的
紋身。
店主點頭同意，用蹩腳的英語說道
：
“先紋在身上
，先紋在心裡。”
他完全正確。
如果您在腦海中接受這個名字
，如果您相信人們對您的
負面評價
，如果您讓
生活為您命名，那麼您就賦予了
它實現的權利。
在您的腦海中，您的名字是為
輸而生還是為贏而生？
你的名字是貧窮的、破產的、被擊敗的，
還是你的名字是
有福的、繁榮的，超過足夠的
？
您是否讓生活為您
上癮、掙扎、受限
或按照上帝的名字命名
？
自由、完整、勝利、
得勝。
否則，您需要更改
這些名稱。
在聖經中，雅各布的
妻子雷切爾在生下
他們的第二個
兒子時去世了。
嬰兒出生時
很好，但她非常痛苦，就在她死前，她給
嬰兒取名為貝諾尼，意思是我悲傷的
兒子。
在這裡，小嬰兒
沒有做錯任何事，但他將
不得不
度過被稱為“
悲傷之子”的生活。
在那些
日子裡，他們給人們起的名字比今天
重要得多
。
這些名字可以從字面上決定一個人的
命運。
它似乎
只適合小貝諾尼，只是運氣不好
。
他的母親很痛苦。
她把她的痛苦發洩在他身上
。
她宣布他
將過著痛苦、悲傷、
壓抑的生活。
有時，那些
應該對
你說
實話、稱你有才華、有價值、
傑作
的人卻做了相反的
事情，因為他們正在受傷，因為他們在痛苦中，他們稱你不足，不夠
好。
他們可能沒有說出來，
但他們如何讓你感覺，
讓你失望，沒有表現出
你的愛和感情。
好消息是上帝
給你的名字壓倒了人們給你的
名字。
他們可能會稱你為悲傷之
子、痛苦之子、
失敗之子。
上帝稱你為勝利之子
、恩寵之子、
祝福之子。
不要讓人們對你的負面評價，
你是
如何成長的，你
沒有得到什麼，來決定你的
命運。
更改您的姓名。
雷切爾死後幾分鐘，雅各布跑了進來。
護士把
嬰兒遞給他，說這是你的
兒子。
他的名字是貝諾尼。
當雅各布聽到這個消息時，內心升起了某種
東西
。
他說：“不，那不是他的
名字。
無論過去發生了什麼，
無論別人怎麼說，他都不會被
稱為悲傷之子。
他的名字是本傑明。”
本傑明的意思是
力量之子，力量之子。
在那一刻，隨著
那個名字的改變，他從
悲傷之子變成了
力量之子。
本傑明繼續成為
偉大的領導者。
出於他的基因，他的
家族，出現了
以色列的國王。
一個接一個的國王。
上帝為本傑明安排了一項偉大的任務，
但他知道，如果他度過了被稱為悲傷之子的
生活
，
那他的內心會很
痛苦。
他會認為自己是
有限的和被擊敗的。
所以上帝站出來說：
“不，他不會成為
悲傷之子。
他不是失敗之子。
這個孩子是
命運之子。
這個孩子有他的
偉大。”
現在也許有人試圖
說出你的名字是平均的
、不合格的、沒有吸引力的、太多的
錯誤。
上帝對你說，他
對本傑明說的話。
“我要更改你的名字。
不再是悲傷之子，不再是不夠好之子，
我要重新命名你為
力量之子，命運之
女，偉大之子。”
現在您必須儘自己的一份力量
，擺脫舊名稱。 當上帝稱
你為力量之子時，敵人會喜歡你
作為
悲傷之子生活
。
他知道你有什麼。
這就是為什麼他一直在與
你戰鬥，因為你還是個
小孩子，試圖改變你的
名字，通過人們，通過
失望，通過你自己的錯誤和失敗。
但是，當您學會將自己的
名字改回被
創造時的身份時，所有
黑暗的力量都無法
阻止您。
當你知道你是一個
力量之子，裝備齊全，有能力，有才華和創造力，被上帝的恩寵所環繞，王室的
血液流過
你的血管，那麼門就會打開，任何人都無法
關閉。
合適的人會突然出現。
您將克服看起來太大的
障礙。
當你有正確的名字時，
你會走得比你
想像的更遠。
我知道一個人，
他的高中輔導員告訴他他
不是很聰明，他
應該從事他能找到的最低
技能的工作。
輔導員可能是
好意，但人們不知道
你心裡有什麼。
他們看不到你
偉大的種子。
這就是為什麼大衛的父親
把大衛留在
牧羊人的地裡。
當
先知來任命一個兒子為
下一任國王時。
大衛看起來很普通。
他不喜歡他的
哥哥 ELIAB。
他又高又帥。
他看起來像個國王。
大衛的父親認為
大衛永遠不會有太多的錢。
他沒什麼特別的。
他將大衛命名為平均，但
上帝將他命名為巨人殺手。
他稱他為牧童。
上帝稱他為歷史
創造者。
他的父親叫大衛，他的錢不會
太多。
神稱他為以色列之王。
不要
讓人們在你身上看不到的東西告訴你
你知道你是誰。
這位顧問在這個年輕人身上沒有
看到任何
特別之處。
他認為他低於平均水平，
沒有才華，勉強
過得去。
30 年來，這個人
一直相信那些謊言。
他四處走動，認為我不夠
聰明。
我達不到標準。
我沒有別人
有的。
他在當地工廠工作，年復一年地留在
最低層職位
。
有一天工廠關門了。
他穿過城鎮去了
另一家工廠併申請了
一份工作。
他們有一個政策，每個
申請人都必須進行智商
測試。
他接受了測試。
他的分數回到了
天才的水平。
老闆打電話給他，說
你在做什麼
申請這個低級職位。
在我們公司 60 年的歷史中，您的得分高於任何人
。
那一天，他心中的一個堡壘被打破了
。
他意識到顧問在他身上看不到的東西並
沒有定義他是誰。
人們對
你說過什麼，或者他們沒有對
你
說過什麼，並沒有改變你的內心。
它並沒有削弱你的
潛力。
偉大
仍在。
他做了我要我們做的事
。
他改了名字。
沒有更多的不夠好。
沒有更多沒有才華。
他開始認為自己是
聰明的、有價值的，
就像擁有偉大種子的人一樣。
最終他創辦了
自己的公司。
他繼續發明了幾種
產品，這些產品現已獲得
專利並且非常成功。
你不能
阻止人們說消極的話，但
我知道你不是人們
所說的你，你是
你的答案。
他們可能會說你
沒有吸引力、不合格、
不合格。
沒關係。
只是不要回答它。
當思想說
你好恐懼，你好沮喪，你好不安全時——
你
不能和我說話，那不是我。
我有信心。
我很安全。
我是勝利者。
您好，您好
，您好，您好，您好，您好，慢性疼痛。
對不起，這裡沒有
那個名字的人。
你一定有錯誤的
地址。
我是健康的，完整的，
精力充沛的。
那就是住在這裡的人。
您是否正在回答您沒有回答的問題
？
放棄你的時間和
精力，讓那些消極的想法
發揮作用。
那不是你。
當思想低語時，“你
不值得被祝福。
你犯了太多錯誤。
你不配。”
認識到正在發生的事情。
他們正試圖重命名你。
當你聽到寬恕、救贖、恢復的聲音時，
那就是
你需要傾聽的時候。
好吧，你好，不合格，沒有經驗，
少於。
打擾一下？
你的意思是受膏、
備受寵愛、健康嗎？
這就是我。
當思想告訴你你
沒有魅力時，沒有人願意在你身邊
，你
沒有一個好的個性，
你太高太矮了。
不要給那個
時間。
當你聽到你好
傑作時，你好
好看，你好高大，黑暗
和英俊。
是的，我有什麼可以幫助您的嗎？
現在你在呼喚我的名字。
回答勝利。
回答令人恐懼和奇妙的
製造。
回答得勝者。
長大後，我在
學校的朋友曾經叫我花生，
因為我很小。
沒有人
說它帶有貶義，但我可以
告訴你這對我的自尊沒有幫助
。
一整天，“嘿，
花生，怎麼樣？”
打籃球，“花生把
球傳給我。”
我無法阻止他們
叫我花生，但我從
不讓花生進入
裡面。
我沒有讓他們改變
我知道我是誰。
是的，我很小，但在
內心深處，我知道我有一個歷史創造者
。
我沒有我的一些
朋友那麼強壯，但我知道裡面有
一個巨人
殺手。
他們看不到它。
他們所能
看到的只是花生，但我從來沒有讓
花生在我身上生根。
甚至進入高中。
我大一的時候身高 4 英尺
11 英寸。
高中畢業後我成長了
很多，但你可以
想像在我的籃球比賽中，人們會說
，“看看那個
小孩。
看看他有多小。”
我從來沒有那樣看自己。
我在外面可能有 4 英尺 11
英尺，但在
裡面我有 7 英尺高。
人們
可以給你打電話很多事情，但你不必
讓它進入你。
回到上帝對你說的話
。
讓你的天父命名
你，不是人，不是你的
錯誤，不是你的過去。
上帝稱你是卓越的。
他稱你為救贖和
寬恕。
他稱你健康而
完整。
他稱你為傑作、
巨人殺手、歷史
創造者。
現在做你的一部分，讓
他的名字覆蓋你的所有
其他名字。
你的任務太
重要了
，
不能用像劣等、不合格、平均這樣的名字。
我要求你更改這些
名稱並
與上帝達成協議。
我的一個朋友在
薩爾瓦多長大。
他的父親是個
酒鬼，當他喝酒時會變得非常暴力
。
當他還是個
孩子的時候，他的母親搬到了美國。
他是由他的
祖父母撫養長大的。
作為一個小男孩，他感到迷失
和困惑。
他在學校表現很差。
他沒有
與人進行社交互動。
有一天，他無意中聽到他的祖父母談論他是
如何精神受損的。
他是一個學習緩慢的人，他是
如何需要幫助的。
他們把
他送到精神病醫生那裡，他確認
這個小男孩有所有
這些學習障礙。
他被一遍又一遍地告訴他，
他永遠不會有太多
錢。
他沒有天賦。
他不夠聰明。
10 歲時，他即將
和母親一起搬回美國。
他告訴他的
祖父他需要一個美國名字。
他從來沒有
聽過祖父說過
他的好話，但
祖父卻抬頭看向
空中，開始思考。
他說：“好的，兒子，這個
名字需要
非常強大。一些代表
榮譽的東西。一些代表
勇氣的東西。
它需要是一個
偉大的領導者的名字，一個天才的名字，一個會
影響
世界的人的名字。 "
他說：“我知道了。
你的新名字將是 ERWIN。”
好吧，這個小男孩從來沒有聽說過歐文這個名字。
他不喜歡那個名字。
他想要一個像約翰或比爾這樣的普通美國
名字。
多年來，他和母親一起從一個
州搬到另一個州
。
他可以隨時
改名，但他不
會這樣做。
儘管他不喜歡他的
新名字，但讓他保留
它的是他唯一一次
聽到有人說
他要做一些
偉大的事情。
他的祖父母、老師、顧問從不鼓勵他，但那天他聽說他將影響世界，他將成為一個有榮譽感和勇氣的人，
那是一個
天才
的名字
。
他知道所有關於他的負面評價
，但
今天有人說
他很特別，他有
偉大的種子。
每次他想
回頭，安於平庸時，
他都會記得他的祖父
所說的那個名叫歐文的人所代表的。
今天，我們的朋友 ERWIN MCMANUS 是一位了不起的
牧師
、作家和電影製作人。
周圍最聰明的人之一，
但我想知道我們
是否聽說過 ERWIN。
我想知道如果他
沒有改名，他的禮物會不會出來。
如果他的祖父沒有提醒他他的真實
身份
，不是人們說他是
誰，不是專家說
他是誰，不是
環境說他是
誰，而是上帝說他是誰，一個
傑作，有價值，有
種子的天賦
偉大的。
也許就像 ERWIN 一樣，從來沒有人告訴過
你你的真實身份
。
生活給
你起了一些名字，告訴
你你不能做什麼，你不是什麼，你是如何
犯了太多錯誤的。
上帝讓你聽到這些，
因為他希望你
改變你的名字。
不再平庸。
再也不會在那裡迷路了。
你是偉大的。
當上帝創造你時，他把
自己的一部分放在你裡面。
他裝備了
你，賦予了你力量，並膏抹了你。
他用他的寵愛加冕了你
。
你的新名字是有福的、繁榮的、有能力的、被
原諒的、有
才華的、獨一無二的
、傑作。
當上帝給亞伯拉罕和
莎拉他們將要生
孩子的應許時，
他們都太老了。
這看起來不可能，但上帝
做了一些不尋常的事情。
他不僅給了他們應
許，還把他們的名字從亞伯蘭改成了亞伯拉罕。
亞伯拉罕的意思是多國之
父。
當上帝改變他的名字時，
他們沒有一個孩子。
然而
，
每次有人說：“你好，亞伯拉罕，”他們是在說：“你好，萬國之
父。”
他們是在對他的命運
說出信心。
您不斷聽到的內容開始
深入人心。
這就是
為什麼擁有正確的名字如此重要。
我很幸運。
我很有天賦。
我很健康。
好吧，喬爾，我感覺
不健康。
好吧，請繼續這樣稱呼自己。
這
就是讓它發生的原因。
我不感到幸福。
我負債累累。
我正在掙扎。
我有這些賬單。
你是對的，亞伯拉罕在
哪裡。
他本可以說，我們沒有
孩子。
我們不會要孩子的
。
上帝，我的妻子已經經歷了人生的
轉變。
這就是為什麼上帝改變了他的
名字，所以他會一次又一次地聽到它
。
你是許多
國家的父親。
你可能不會感到幸福。
你很想談論你沒有的
東西，它如何
不會改善，這就是
你在這裡的原因。
上帝正在改變你的名字，
從缺乏，從掙扎，
從不夠，
到有福，到繁榮，到
綽綽有餘。
現在你必須不斷地呼喚自己，
上帝對
你的評價。
可能不會在一夜之間發生。
亞伯拉罕等了好幾年。
但每次你稱自己為
上帝命名的你時，
它的內心就會變得
更深。
它正在改變你的自我
形象。
它正在重新規劃您的
思維。
我敢肯定，
亞伯拉罕多次想，“我們永遠不會
有孩子。”
關於那個時候有人會走上來叫
他的名字。
嘿，亞伯拉罕。
他會被提醒你是
許多國家的父親。
在你得到祝福之前，你必須稱自己是
有福的。
當您仍在與疾病作
鬥爭時，您必須
自稱健康。
當
您仍在
與成癮作鬥爭時，請自由自在。
擁有正確的名字可以
幫助
你保持堅強，這樣你就可以
成為上帝對你所說的那樣
。
上帝把莎拉的名字從
莎拉改成了莎拉。
莎拉的意思是公主。
如果有人不覺得自己像個
公主，那一定是
莎拉。
她已經生育了
80 多年。
她不覺得有吸引力，
也不覺得特別。
一切都告訴她，你已經完成了
。
你永遠不會有孩子。
她本可以說：“不要
改我的名字。
就叫
我吧，莎萊。我不是公主，那
不會有任何好處。”
不，她接受了
改名。
她實際上說，這
似乎是不可能的。
賠率對我不利，但如果上帝說我是公主，
那麼我將
與他達成協議。 每次有人說
早安，莎拉，他們
都是在說早安公主。
她
聽說，很多時候，內心的某些東西開始
活躍起來。
信心開始興起。
不久之後，
承諾就實現了
。
您可能會遇到一些情況，
您看不到它如何影響
您的健康、
職業和人際關係。
你的反對看起來是
永久性的。
就像亞伯拉罕和莎拉一樣，
上帝正在改變你的名字。
你已經上癮
多年了，上帝呼召你
自由。
你還沒能
生孩子。
你一直不孕。
上帝稱
你子宮的果實是有福的。
他叫你媽媽。
你的夢想似乎太大了。
你沒有
經驗，沒有培訓。
上帝呼召你
成功。
他稱你為富足、
繁榮、豐富。
現在整個關鍵是您是否會
喜歡他們並接受
名稱更改。
你會繼續稱自己為
上帝所說的你嗎，
即使它沒有
意義？
每次你這樣做，它的內在
都會變得更
強大，最終你將
成為上帝命名的
你。
路加福音 第 1 章，一位天使出現在
撒迦利亞面前，告訴
他他的妻子
伊麗莎白將要生一個孩子，他們將給他起
名叫約翰。
嗯，就像莎拉一樣，伊麗莎白
太老了。
撒迦利亞問天使
這是怎麼發生的。
天使向他保證，
上帝的應許會實現
，但因為
撒迦利亞懷疑他會
保持沉默，直到
嬰兒出生。
從那一刻起，他就
不能說話了。
九個月後，伊麗莎白
生下了一個男嬰。
家人和
親戚都非常興奮，他們來到家裡
慶祝。
1:59 說他們想以
他父親的名字命名兒子撒迦利亞
。
上帝說他的名字是約翰，但
他們想給他起一個
不同的名字。
我們都有一些他們在
生活中。
人們會
試圖說出你
不是的東西。
他們可能是好意思。
當我父親還是個
少年時，他的父母告訴他，他
不能成為
一名部長。
他所知道的就是挑選
棉花。
上帝稱他為牧師，但
他們對他的稱呼比他低，沒有達到標準
。
如果他接受他們的名字，
他將永遠
不會影響世界。
不要讓他們說出你的名字。
讓上帝為你命名。
伊麗莎白對他們說：“不，
他的名字不會是
撒迦利亞。
他的名字會是約翰。”
他們說：“你是什麼意思？你
家裡沒有人叫約翰。這沒有任何意義。”
他們去見父親撒迦利亞，問他
嬰兒的名字是什麼。
他還是不能說話。
所以他在平板電腦上寫道。
他的名字是約翰。
突然間，他又能說話了
。
但有趣的是
母親無法為
嬰兒命名。
那個時代的女性
沒有今天的影響力。
家人、朋友、
鄰居，他們都叫不出
孩子的名字。
唯一有權為嬰兒
命名的人是父親。
他們必須去找撒迦利亞，看看
孩子的名字
是什麼。
原則是你的
天父是唯一
有權命名
你的人。
不要讓
其他人把他們的名字
放在你身上。
他們會試圖說出你
上癮、掙扎、
失敗的名字。
上帝命名你是自由的、完整的、
得勝的。
日子會讓你
平庸，平庸。
上帝稱你為傑作，
獨一無二，獨一無二。
人們會試圖說出你洗過澡的名字，錯誤太多。
神命名你被赦免、
救贖和恢復。
你讓他們給你起名字了
嗎？
你有沒有讓生活讓
你相信你是誰，讓
那些消極的想法告訴
你，
你的未來沒有好事？
就像亞伯拉罕和莎拉一樣，
現在上帝正在改變
你的名字。
你的新名字是有福的、繁榮的
、獨一無二的、
有價值的、最高的
孩子。
現在做你的一部分並
接受名稱更改。
消除所有負面情緒，繼續
呼喚自己，
上帝呼喚你。
如果你這樣做，我
相信並宣布，支撐你的堡壘正在被
打破。
你即將
步入你被創造成為的樣子，
新的影響力、
恩寵、修復、醫治，以耶穌的名義完成你
的命運。
如果您收到它，您
今天可以說阿門。
但我想給你一個
機會，讓耶穌
成為你生命的主宰。
你願意和我一起祈禱嗎？
只是說，主耶穌，我
悔改我的罪。
進入我的心。
我使你成為我的
主和救主。
朋友們，如果你祈禱了那個
簡單的祈禱，我們相信你已經
重生了。
進入一個良好的聖經
教會。
把上帝放在第一位。

>> JOEL OSTEEN: WELL GOD BLESS YOU. IT'S A JOY TO COME INTO YOUR HOMES AND IF YOU'RE EVER IN OUR AREA, PLEASE STOP BY AND BE A PART OF ONE OF OUR SERVICES. I'LL PROMISE YOU, WE'LL MAKE YOU FEEL RIGHT AT HOME. I LIKE TO START WITH SOMETHING FUNNY AND I HEARD ABOUT THIS SCIENTIST. HE SAID TO GOD, "WE'VE DECIDED WE NO LONGER NEED YOU. WE CAN CLONE PEOPLE, TRANSPLANT HEARTS, DO ALL KINDS OF THINGS ONCE CONSIDERED MIRACULOUS." GOD SAID, "FINE, BUT TO PROVE YOU DON'T NEED ME, LET'S HAVE A MAN-MAKING CONTEST. THE ONLY REQUIREMENT IS YOU HAVE TO MAKE MAN OUT OF DIRT." THE SCIENTIST SAID GREAT AND REACHED DOWN TO PICK UP A HANDFUL OF DIRT. GOD SAID, "NOT SO FAST. GO GET YOUR OWN DIRT." SAY IT LIKE YOU MEAN IT. THIS IS MY BIBLE. I AM WHAT IT SAYS I AM. I HAVE WHAT IT SAYS I HAVE. I CAN DO WHAT IT SAYS I CAN DO. TODAY I WILL BE TAUGHT THE WORD OF GOD. I BOLDLY CONFESS, MY MIND IS ALERT, MY HEART IS RECEPTIVE. I WILL NEVER BE THE SAME. IN JESUS' NAME. GOD BLESS YOU. I WANT TO TALK TO YOU TODAY ABOUT CHANGE YOUR NAME. IT'S EASY TO GO THROUGH LIFE LETTING PEOPLE PUT NAMES ON US. THINGS LIKE AVERAGE, UNQUALIFIED, POOR, ADDICTED. SOMETIMES OUR OWN THOUGHTS HAVE NAMED US. NOT TALENTED, NOT GOOD ENOUGH, UNATTRACTIVE. AS LONG AS WE'RE WEARING THESE NAMES, BELIEVING THE LIES THAT PEOPLE AND CIRCUMSTANCES HAVE TOLD US, IT'S GOING TO KEEP US FROM OUR POTENTIAL. YOU HAVE TO CHANGE YOUR NAME. I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT ON YOUR BIRTH CERTIFICATE. I'M TALKING ABOUT IN YOUR MIND. WHO DO YOU BELIEVE YOU ARE? HOW DO YOU SEE YOURSELF? WHEN GOD BREATHED LIFE INTO YOU HE NAMED YOU BLESSED, PROSPEROUS, TALENTED, ONE OF A KIND. HE CALLS YOU A MASTERPIECE. PEOPLE WILL CALL YOU AVERAGE, ORDINARY, NOTHING SPECIAL. IF YOU ACCEPT THOSE NAMES, YOU'LL BE AVERAGE, ORDINARY, NOTHING SPECIAL. WHAT'S HOLDING MANY PEOPLE BACK IS THEY HAVE THE WRONG NAME. A MAN WAS WALKING DOWN A BUSY STREET IN THAILAND, AND HE CAME UPON THIS TATTOO SHOP. IN THE WINDOW, THERE WERE MANY OF THE TATTOOS THEY OFFERED. ONE SAID "BORN TO LOSE." HE COULDN'T BELIEVE ANYONE WOULD HAVE THAT TATTOOED ON THEM. THE OWNER CAME UP. THEY STRUCK UP A CONVERSATION. HE ASKED THE OWNER IF ANYONE EVER GOT THE "BORN TO LOSE" TATTOO. THE OWNER NODDED HIS HEAD YES, AND SAID IN BROKEN ENGLISH, "BEFORE TATTOOED ON BODY, TATTOOED ON MIND." HE'S EXACTLY RIGHT. IF YOU ACCEPT THE NAME IN YOUR MIND, IF YOU BELIEVE NEGATIVE THINGS PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN OVER YOU, IF YOU LET LIFE NAME YOU, YOU'RE GIVING IT THE RIGHT TO COME TO PASS. IN YOUR MIND IS YOUR NAME BORN TO LOSE OR BORN TO WIN? IS YOUR NAME POOR, BROKE, DEFEATED, OR IS YOUR NAME BLESSED, PROSPEROUS, MORE THAN ENOUGH? HAVE YOU LET LIFE NAME YOU ADDICTED, STRUGGLING, LIMITED OR DO YOU GO BY WHAT GOD NAMES YOU? FREE, WHOLE, VICTORIOUS, OVERCOMER. ANYTHING THAT'S TELLING YOU OTHERWISE, YOU NEED TO CHANGE THOSE NAMES. IN THE SCRIPTURE, JACOB'S WIFE, RACHEL DIED WHILE GIVING BIRTH TO THEIR SECOND SON. THE BABY WAS BORN FINE, BUT SHE WAS IN SO MUCH PAIN, JUST BEFORE SHE DIED, SHE NAMED THE BABY BENONI, WHICH MEANS SON OF MY SORROW. HERE THE LITTLE BABY HAD DONE NOTHING WRONG, BUT HE WAS GOING TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH LIFE BEING CALLED SON OF SORROW. AND BACK IN THOSE DAYS THE NAMES THEY GAVE PEOPLE WERE MUCH MORE SIGNIFICANT THAN TODAY. THOSE NAMES COULD LITERALLY DETERMINE THE PERSON'S DESTINY. IT SEEMED LIKE FOR LITTLE BENONI ONLY IT'S JUST BAD LUCK. HIS MOTHER WAS IN PAIN. SHE TOOK OUT HER MISERY ON HIM. SHE PRONOUNCED THAT HE WOULD LIVE A PAINFUL, SORROWFUL, DEPRESSING LIFE. AND SOMETIMES THE PEOPLE THAT SHOULD'VE BEEN SPEAKING FAITH INTO YOU, NAMING YOU TALENTED, VALUABLE, MASTERPIECE HAVE DONE JUST THE OPPOSITE BECAUSE THEY WERE HURTING, BECAUSE THEY WERE IN PAIN, THEY NAMED YOU LESS THAN, NOT GOOD ENOUGH. THEY MAY NOT HAVE SAID IT, BUT HOW THEY MADE YOU FEEL, PUTTING YOU DOWN, NOT SHOWING YOU LOVE AND AFFECTION. THE GOOD NEWS IS WHAT GOD NAMES YOU OVERRIDES WHAT PEOPLE NAME YOU. THEY MAY NAME YOU SON OF SORROW, SON OF PAIN, SON OF DEFEAT. GOD NAMES YOU SON OF VICTORY, SON OF FAVOR, SON OF BLESSING. DON'T LET THE NEGATIVE THINGS PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN OVER YOU, HOW YOU WERE RAISED, WHAT YOU DIDN'T GET, DETERMINE YOUR DESTINY. CHANGE YOUR NAME. A FEW MINUTES AFTER RACHEL DIED, JACOB CAME RUNNING IN. THE NURSES HANDED HIM THE BABY AND SAID HERE'S YOUR SON. HIS NAME IS BENONI. WHEN JACOB HEARD THAT, SOMETHING ROSE UP ON THE INSIDE. HE SAID, "NO THAT IS NOT HIS NAME. NO MATTER WHAT'S HAPPENED IN THE PAST, NO MATTER WHAT SOMEONE ELSE SAID, HE WILL NOT BE CALLED SON OF SORROW. HIS NAME IS BENJAMIN." BENJAMIN MEANS SON OF STRENGTH, SON OF POWER. IN THAT ONE MOMENT, WITH THAT ONE NAME CHANGE, HE WENT FROM SON OF SORROW TO SON OF STRENGTH. BENJAMIN WENT ON TO BECOME A GREAT LEADER. OUT OF HIS GENES, HIS FAMILY LINE, CAME THE KINGS OF ISRAEL. ONE KING AFTER ANOTHER. GOD HAD A GREAT ASSIGNMENT FOR BENJAMIN BUT HE KNEW IF HE HAD GONE THROUGH LIFE BEING CALLED SON OF SORROW THAT WOULD'VE GOTTEN ON THE INSIDE. HE WOULD'VE SEEN HIMSELF AS LIMITED AND DEFEATED. SO GOD STEPPED UP AND SAID, "NO HE WILL NOT BE THE SON OF SORROW. HE IS NOT THE SON OF DEFEAT. THIS CHILD IS A SON OF DESTINY. THIS CHILD HAS GREATNESS IN HIM." NOW MAYBE SOMEONE HAS TRIED TO NAME YOU AVERAGE, UNQUALIFIED, UNATTRACTIVE, TOO MANY MISTAKES. GOD IS SAYING TO YOU, WHAT HE SAID TO BENJAMIN. "I'M CHANGING YOUR NAME. NO MORE SON OF SORROW, NO MORE SON OF NOT GOOD ENOUGH, I'M RENAMING YOU SON OF STRENGTH, DAUGHTER OF DESTINY, CHILD OF GREATNESS." NOW YOU HAVE TO DO YOUR PART AND GET RID OF THE OLD NAMES. THE ENEMY WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO LIVE AS THE SON OF SORROW, WHEN GOD HAS CALLED YOU THE SON OF STRENGTH. HE KNOWS WHAT'S IN YOU. THAT'S WHY HE'S BEEN FIGHTING YOU SINCE YOU WERE A LITTLE CHILD TRYING TO CHANGE YOUR NAME, THROUGH PEOPLE, THROUGH DISAPPOINTMENTS, THROUGH YOUR OWN MISTAKES AND FAILURES. BUT WHEN YOU LEARN TO CHANGE YOUR NAME BACK TO WHO YOU WERE CREATED TO BE, ALL THE FORCES OF DARKNESS CANNOT STOP YOU. WHEN YOU KNOW YOU'RE A SON OF STRENGTH, EQUIPPED AND EMPOWERED, TALENTED AND CREATIVE, SURROUNDED BY GOD'S FAVOR WITH ROYAL BLOOD FLOWING THROUGH YOUR VEINS, THEN DOORS WILL OPEN THAT NO MAN CAN SHUT. THE RIGHT PEOPLE WILL SUDDENLY SHOW UP. YOU WILL OVERCOME OBSTACLES THAT LOOK TOO BIG. WHEN YOU HAVE THE RIGHT NAME, YOU'LL GO FURTHER THAN YOU EVER IMAGINED. I KNOW A MAN THAT WAS TOLD BY HIS HIGH SCHOOL COUNSELOR HE WASN'T VERY SMART AND THAT HE SHOULD PURSUE THE LOWEST SKILL JOB THAT HE COULD FIND. THE COUNSELOR MAY HAVE MEANT WELL, BUT PEOPLE DON'T KNOW WHAT'S IN YOU. THEY CAN'T SEE YOUR SEEDS OF GREATNESS. THAT'S WHY DAVID'S FATHER LEFT DAVID OUT IN THE SHEPHERD'S FIELDS. WHEN THE PROPHET CAME TO ANOINT ONE OF THE SONS AS THE NEXT KING. DAVID SEEMED ORDINARY. HE WASN'T LIKE HIS OLDER BROTHER ELIAB. HE WAS TALL, HANDSOME. HE LOOKED LIKE A KING. DAVID'S FATHER THOUGHT DAVID WILL NEVER AMOUNT TO MUCH. NOTHING SPECIAL ABOUT HIM. HE NAMED DAVID AVERAGE, BUT GOD NAMED HIM GIANT KILLER. HE NAMED HIM A SHEPHERD BOY. GOD NAMED HIM A HISTORY MAKER. HIS FATHER NAMED DAVID NOT GOING TO AMOUNT TO MUCH. GOD NAMED HIM KING OF ISRAEL. DON'T LET WHAT PEOPLE CAN'T SEE IN YOU TALK YOU OUT OF WHO YOU KNOW YOU ARE. THIS COUNSELOR DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING SPECIAL IN THIS YOUNG MAN. HE NAMED HIM BELOW AVERAGE, NOT TALENTED, BARELY GETTING BY. FOR 30 YEARS, THIS MAN BELIEVED THOSE LIES. HE WENT AROUND THINKING I'M NOT SMART ENOUGH. I'M NOT UP TO PAR. I DON'T HAVE WHAT OTHERS HAVE. HE WORKED AT THE LOCAL FACTORY AND STAYED AT THE LOWEST LEVEL POSITION YEAR AFTER YEAR. ONE DAY THAT FACTORY CLOSED. HE WENT ACROSS TOWN TO ANOTHER FACTORY AND APPLIED FOR A JOB. THEY HAD A POLICY THAT EVERY APPLICANT HAD TO TAKE AN IQ TEST. HE TOOK THE TEST. HIS SCORE CAME BACK AT A GENIUS LEVEL. THE OWNER CALLED HIM AND SAID WHAT ARE YOU DOING APPLYING FOR THIS LOW LEVEL POSITION. YOU'VE SCORED HIGHER THAN ANYONE IN OUR COMPANY'S 60 YEAR HISTORY. THAT DAY, A STRONGHOLD WAS BROKEN IN HIS MIND. HE REALIZE WHAT THAT COUNSELOR COULDN'T SEE IN HIM DID NOT DEFINE WHO HE WAS. AND WHAT PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN OVER YOU OR WHAT THEY HAVEN'T SPOKEN OVER YOU HASN'T CHANGED WHAT'S IN YOU. IT DIDN'T LESSEN YOUR POTENTIAL. THE GREATNESS IS STILL IN THERE. HE DID WHAT I'M ASKING US TO DO. HE CHANGED HIS NAME. NO MORE NOT GOOD ENOUGH. NO MORE NOT TALENTED. HE STARTED SEEING HIMSELF AS BRIGHT, AS VALUABLE, AS ONE WITH SEEDS OF GREATNESS. AND EVENTUALLY HE STARTED HIS OWN COMPANY. HE WENT ON TO INVENT SEVERAL PRODUCTS THAT ARE NOW PATENTED AND VERY SUCCESSFUL. YOU CAN'T STOP PEOPLE FROM SAYING NEGATIVE THINGS, BUT I'VE LEARNED YOU ARE NOT WHAT PEOPLE CALL YOU, YOU ARE WHAT YOU ANSWER TO. THEY MAY CALL YOU UNATTRACTIVE, UNQUALIFIED, NOT UP TO PAR. THAT'S FINE. JUST DON'T ANSWER TO IT. WHEN THOUGHTS SAY HELLO FEARFUL, HELLO DEPRESSED, HELLO INSECURE-- YOU MUST NOT BE TALKING TO ME, THAT'S NOT WHO I AM. I AM CONFIDENT. I AM SECURE. I AM VICTORIOUS. WELL HELLO SICK, HELLO LIMITED, HELLO CHRONIC PAIN. SORRY, THERE'S NO ONE HERE BY THAT NAME. YOU MUST HAVE THE WRONG ADDRESS. I AM HEALTHY, WHOLE, ENERGETIC. THAT'S WHO LIVES HERE. ARE YOU ANSWERING TO SOMETHING THAT YOU'RE NOT? QUIT GIVING YOUR TIME AND ENERGY LETTING THOSE NEGATIVE THOUGHTS PLAY. THAT IS NOT WHO YOU ARE. WHEN THOUGHTS WHISPER, "YOU DON'T DESERVE TO BE BLESSED. YOU MADE TOO MANY MISTAKES. YOU'RE UNWORTHY." RECOGNIZE WHAT'S HAPPENING. THEY'RE TRYING TO RENAME YOU. WHEN YOU HEAR FORGIVEN, REDEEMED, RESTORED, THAT'S WHEN YOU NEED TO LISTEN. WELL, HELLO UNQUALIFIED, INEXPERIENCED, LESS THAN. EXCUSE ME? DO YOU MEAN ANOINTED, HIGHLY FAVORED, WELL ABLE? THAT'S WHO I AM. WHEN THOUGHTS TELL YOU YOU'RE NOT ATTRACTIVE, NOBODY WANTS TO BE AROUND YOU, YOU DON'T HAVE A GOOD PERSONALITY, YOU'RE TOO TALL, TOO SHORT. DON'T GIVE THAT THE TIME OF DAY. WHEN YOU HEAR HELLO MASTERPIECE, HELLO GOOD LOOKING, HELLO TALL, DARK AND HANDSOME. YES, HOW CAN I HELP YOU? NOW YOU'RE CALLING MY NAME. ANSWER TO VICTORIOUS. ANSWER TO FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE. ANSWER TO OVERCOMER. GROWING UP, MY FRIENDS AT SCHOOL USED TO CALL ME PEANUT BECAUSE I WAS VERY SMALL. NOBODY SAID IT IN A DEROGATORY SENSE, BUT I CAN TELL YOU IT DIDN'T HELP MY SELF ESTEEM. ALL THROUGH THE DAY, "HEY, PEANUT, HOW'S IT GOIN?'" PLAYIN' BASKETBALL, "PEANUT PASS ME THE BALL." I COULDN'T STOP THEM FROM CALLING ME PEANUT, BUT I NEVER LET PEANUT GET ON THE INSIDE. I DIDN'T LET THEM CHANGE WHO I KNEW I WAS. YES, I WAS SMALL, BUT DEEP DOWN I KNEW THERE WAS A HISTORY MAKER IN ME. I WASN'T AS STRONG AS SOME OF MY FRIENDS, BUT I KNEW THERE WAS A GIANT KILLER ON THE INSIDE. THEY COULDN'T SEE IT. ALL THEY COULD SEE WAS PEANUT, BUT I NEVER LET PEANUT TAKE ROOT IN ME. EVEN GOING INTO HIGH SCHOOL. MY FRESHMAN YEAR I WAS 4 FEET 11 INCHES TALL. I GREW A LOT AFTER HIGH SCHOOL, BUT YOU CAN IMAGINE AT MY BASKETBALL GAMES, PEOPLE SAY, "LOOK AT THAT LITTLE KID. LOOK HOW SMALL HE IS." I NEVER SAW MYSELF THAT WAY. I MAY HAVE BEEN 4 FEET 11 ON THE OUTSIDE, BUT ON THE INSIDE I STOOD 7 FEET TALL. PEOPLE CAN CALL YOU A LOT OF THINGS, BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO LET IT GET IN YOU. GO BACK TO WHAT GOD SAYS ABOUT YOU. LET YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER NAME YOU, NOT PEOPLE, NOT YOUR MISTAKES, NOT YOUR PAST. GOD CALLS YOU EXCEPTIONAL. HE CALLS YOU REDEEMED AND FORGIVEN. HE CALLS YOU HEALTHY AND WHOLE. HE CALLS YOU A MASTERPIECE, A GIANT KILLER, A HISTORY MAKER. NOW DO YOUR PART AND LET WHAT HE NAMES YOU OVERRIDE ALL THE OTHER NAMES. YOUR ASSIGNMENT IS TOO IMPORTANT TO GO THROUGH LIFE WEARING NAMES LIKE INFERIOR, UNQUALIFIED, AVERAGE. I'M ASKING YOU TO CHANGE THOSE NAMES AND GET IN AGREEMENT WITH GOD. A FRIEND OF MINE GREW UP IN EL SALVADOR. HIS FATHER WAS AN ALCOHOLIC AND WOULD BECOME VERY VIOLENT WHEN HE WAS DRINKING. HIS MOTHER MOVED TO THE UNITED STATES WHEN HE WAS A SMALL CHILD. HE WAS RAISED BY HIS GRANDPARENTS. AS A YOUNG BOY HE FELT LOST AND CONFUSED. HE DID VERY POORLY IN SCHOOL. HE DIDN'T INTERACT SOCIALLY WITH PEOPLE. ONE DAY, HE OVERHEARD HIS GRANDPARENTS TALKING ABOUT HOW HE WAS MENTALLY IMPAIRED. HOW HE WAS A SLOW LEARNER, HOW HE NEEDED HELP. THEY SENT HIM TO A PSYCHIATRIST AND HE CONFIRMED THAT THE LITTLE BOY HAD ALL THESE LEARNING DISABILITIES. HE WAS TOLD AGAIN AND AGAIN HE WOULD NEVER AMOUNT TO MUCH. HE WASN'T TALENTED. HE WASN'T SMART ENOUGH. AT 10 YEARS OLD HE WAS ABOUT TO MOVE BACK TO THE STATES WITH HIS MOTHER. HE TOLD HIS GRANDFATHER THAT HE NEEDED AN AMERICAN NAME. HE HAD NEVER HEARD HIS GRANDFATHER SAY ONE GOOD THING ABOUT HIM, BUT HIS GRANDFATHER LOOKED UP IN THE AIR AND STARTED THINKING. HE SAID, "OKAY, SON, THIS NAME NEEDS TO BE SOMETHING VERY STRONG. SOMETHING THAT SAYS HONOR. SOMETHING THAT SAYS VALOR. IT NEEDS TO BE THE NAME OF A GREAT LEADER, OF A GENIUS, OF SOMEONE THAT WILL IMPACT THE WORLD." HE SAID, "I'VE GOT IT. YOUR NEW NAME WILL BE ERWIN." WELL, THE LITTLE BOY HAD NEVER HEARD THE NAME ERWIN. HE DIDN'T LIKE THAT NAME. HE WANTED A NORMAL AMERICAN NAME LIKE JOHN OR BILL. OVER THE YEARS HE MOVED FROM STATE TO STATE WITH HIS MOTHER. HE COULD'VE CHANGED HIS NAME AT ANYTIME, BUT HE WOULDN'T DO IT. AS MUCH AS HE DIDN'T LIKE HIS NEW NAME, WHAT MADE HIM KEEP IT IS THAT WAS THE ONLY TIME HE HAD EVER HEARD ANYONE SAY HE WAS GOING TO DO SOMETHING GREAT. HIS GRANDPARENTS, TEACHERS, COUNSELORS, NEVER ENCOURAGED HIM, BUT THAT DAY HE HEARD THAT HE WAS GOING TO IMPACT THE WORLD, THAT HE WOULD BE A PERSON OF HONOR AND VALOR, THAT THAT WAS THE NAME OF A GENIUS. HE KNEW ALL THE NEGATIVE THINGS SAID ABOUT HIM, BUT THIS DAY SOMEONE WAS SAYING HE WAS EXCEPTIONAL, THAT HE HAD SEEDS OF GREATNESS. AND EVERY TIME HE WAS TEMPTED TO SWING BACK, SETTLE FOR MEDIOCRITY, HE WOULD REMEMBER WHAT HIS GRANDFATHER SAID THE NAMED ERWIN REPRESENTED. TODAY, OUR FRIEND ERWIN MCMANUS IS AN AMAZING PASTOR, AUTHOR, FILMMAKER. ONE OF THE BRIGHTEST MINDS AROUND BUT I WONDER IF WE WOULD HAVE EVER HEARD OF ERWIN. I WONDER IF HIS GIFTS WOULD HAVE EVER COME OUT IF HE HAD NOT CHANGED HIS NAME. IF HIS GRANDFATHER HAD NOT REMINDED HIM WHO HE REALLY WAS, NOT WHO PEOPLE SAID HE WAS, NOT WHO THE EXPERTS SAID HE WAS, NOT WHO THE ENVIRONMENT SAID HE WAS, BUT WHO GOD SAID HE WAS, A MASTERPIECE, VALUABLE, TALENTED WITH SEEDS OF GREATNESS. MAYBE LIKE WITH ERWIN, NO ONE HAS EVER TOLD YOU WHO YOU REALLY ARE. LIFE HAS PUT SOME NAMES ON YOU, TOLD YOU WHAT YOU CAN'T DO, WHAT YOU'RE NOT, HOW YOU'VE MADE TOO MANY MISTAKES. GOD HAS YOU HEARING THIS BECAUSE HE WANTS YOU TO CHANGE YOUR NAME. NO MORE MEDIOCRE. NO MORE BORN TO LOSE THERE. IS GREATNESS IN YOU. WHEN GOD CREATED YOU, HE PUT A PART OF HIMSELF IN YOU. HE'S EQUIPPED YOU, EMPOWERED YOU, AND ANOINTED YOU. HE CROWNED YOU WITH HIS FAVOR. YOUR NEW NAMES ARE BLESSED, PROSPEROUS, WELL ABLE, FORGIVEN, TALENTED, ONE OF A KIND, A MASTERPIECE. WHEN GOD GAVE ABRAHAM AND SARAH THE PROMISE THAT THEY WERE GOING TO HAVE A BABY, THEY WERE BOTH WAY TOO OLD. IT LOOKED IMPOSSIBLE, BUT GOD DID SOMETHING UNUSUAL. HE DIDN'T JUST GIVE THEM THE PROMISE, HE CHANGED THEIR NAMES FROM ABRAM TO ABRAHAM. ABRAHAM MEANS FATHER OF MANY NATIONS. WHEN GOD CHANGED HIS NAME, THEY DIDN'T HAVE ONE CHILD. YET EVERY TIME SOMEONE SAID, "HELLO, ABRAHAM," THEY WERE SAYING, "HELLO FATHER OF MANY NATIONS." THEY WERE SPEAKING FAITH INTO HIS DESTINY. WHAT YOU CONTINUALLY HEAR STARTS TO GET DOWN ON THE INSIDE. THAT'S WHY IT'S SO IMPORTANT TO HAVE THE RIGHT NAMES. I AM BLESSED. I AM TALENTED. I AM HEALTHY. WELL JOEL, I DON'T FEEL HEALTHY. WELL KEEP CALLING YOURSELF THAT. THAT'S WHAT ALLOWS IT TO HAPPEN. I DON'T FEEL BLESSED. I'M IN DEBT. I'M STRUGGLING. I'VE GOT THESE BILLS. YOU'RE RIGHT WHERE ABRAHAM WAS. HE COULD'VE SAID, WE DON'T HAVE ANY CHILDREN. WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE A BABY. GOD, MY WIFE HAS GONE THROUGH THE CHANGE OF LIFE. THAT'S WHY GOD CHANGED HIS NAME, SO HE WOULD HEAR IT AGAIN AND AGAIN. YOU'RE THE FATHER OF MANY NATIONS. YOU MAY NOT FEEL BLESSED. YOU'RE TEMPTED TO TALK ABOUT WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE, HOW IT'S NOT GOING TO IMPROVE, THAT'S WHY YOU'RE HERE. GOD IS CHANGING YOUR NAME FROM LACK, FROM STRUGGLE, FROM NOT ENOUGH, TO BLESSED, TO PROSPEROUS, TO MORE THAN ENOUGH. NOW YOU HAVE TO KEEP CALLING YOURSELF WHAT GOD SAYS ABOUT YOU. MAY NOT HAPPEN OVERNIGHT. ABRAHAM WAITED FOR YEARS. BUT EVERY TIME YOU CALL YOURSELF WHAT GOD NAMED YOU, IT'S GETTING DEEPER ON THE INSIDE. IT'S CHANGING YOUR SELF IMAGE. IT'S REPROGRAMMING YOUR THINKING. I'M SURE MANY TIMES ABRAHAM THOUGHT, "WE'RE NEVER GOING TO HAVE A BABY." ABOUT THAT TIME SOMEONE WOULD WALK UP AND CALL HIS NAME. HEY, ABRAHAM. HE WOULD BE REMINDED YOU'RE THE FATHER OF MANY NATIONS. YOU HAVE TO CALL YOURSELF BLESSED BEFORE YOU'LL EVER BE BLESSED. YOU HAVE TO CALL YOURSELF HEALTHY, WHILE YOU'RE STILL FIGHTING THE ILLNESS. CALL YOURSELF FREE WHILE YOU'RE STILL STRUGGLING WITH THE ADDICTION. HAVING THE RIGHT NAMES IS WHAT'S GOING TO HELP YOU TO STAND STRONG SO YOU CAN BECOME WHAT GOD SAYS ABOUT YOU. GOD CHANGED SARAH'S NAME FROM SARAI TO SARAH. SARAH MEANS PRINCESS. IF ANYONE DIDN'T FEEL LIKE A PRINCESS IT WOULD'VE BEEN SARAH. SHE HAD BEEN BARREN FOR OVER 80 YEARS. SHE DIDN'T FEEL ATTRACTIVE, DIDN'T FEEL SPECIAL. EVERYTHING TOLD HER, YOU'RE FINISHED. YOU'LL NEVER HAVE A BABY. SHE COULD'VE SAID, "DON'T CHANGE MY NAME. JUST CALL ME, SARAI. I AM NOT A PRINCESS, THAT'S NOT GOING TO DO ANY GOOD." NO, SHE ACCEPTED THE NAME CHANGE. SHE SAID IN EFFECT, THIS SEEMS IMPOSSIBLE. THE ODDS ARE AGAINST ME, BUT IF GOD SAYS I'M A PRINCESS, THEN I'M GOING TO GET IN AGREEMENT WITH HIM. EVERY TIME SOMEONE SAID GOOD MORNING, SARAH, THEY WERE SAYING GOOD MORNING PRINCESS. SHE HEARD THAT SO MANY TIMES SOMETHING BEGAN TO COME ALIVE ON THE INSIDE. FAITH STARTED TO RISE UP. IT WASN'T LONG AFTER THAT BEFORE THE PROMISE CAME TO PASS. YOU MAY HAVE SITUATIONS THAT YOU DON'T SEE HOW IT COULD WORK OUT IN YOUR HEALTH, YOUR CAREER, A RELATIONSHIP. WHAT YOU'RE UP AGAINST LOOKS PERMANENT. LIKE WITH ABRAHAM AND SARAH, GOD IS CHANGING YOUR NAME. YOU'VE HAD THAT ADDICTION FOR YEARS, GOD IS CALLING YOU FREE. YOU HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO HAVE A BABY. YOU'VE BEEN BARREN. GOD IS CALLING THE FRUIT OF YOUR WOMB BLESSED. HE'S CALLING YOU A MOTHER. YOUR DREAM SEEMS TOO BIG. YOU DON'T HAVE THE EXPERIENCE, THE TRAINING. GOD IS CALLING YOU SUCCESSFUL. HE'S CALLING YOU BOUNTIFUL, FLOURISHING, ABUNDANT. NOW THE WHOLE KEY IS WILL YOU DO LIKE THEM AND ACCEPT THE NAME CHANGE. WILL YOU KEEP CALLING YOURSELF WHAT GOD CALLS YOU, EVEN WHEN IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE? EVERY TIME YOU DO IT, IT'S GETTING STRONGER ON THE INSIDE AND EVENTUALLY YOU'RE GOING TO BECOME WHAT GOD NAMED YOU. LUKE CHAPTER 1, AN ANGEL APPEARED TO ZECHARIAH AND TOLD HIM THAT HIS WIFE ELIZABETH WAS GOING TO HAVE A BABY THAT THEY WERE TO NAME JOHN. WELL, LIKE SARAH, ELIZABETH WAS WAY TOO OLD. ZECHARIAH ASKED THE ANGEL HOW IT COULD HAPPEN. THE ANGEL ASSURED HIM THAT WHAT GOD PROMISED WOULD COME TO PASS, BUT BECAUSE ZECHARIAH DOUBTED HE WOULD REMAINED SILENT UNTIL THE BABY WAS BORN. FROM THAT MOMENT ON HE COULDN'T SPEAK. NINE MONTHS LATER ELIZABETH GAVE BIRTH TO A BABY BOY. THE FAMILY, THE RELATIVES WERE SO EXCITED, THEY CAME OVER TO THE HOUSE TO CELEBRATE. 1:59 SAYS THEY WANTED TO NAME THE SON ZECHARIAH AFTER HIS FATHER. GOD SAID HIS NAME IS JOHN BUT THEY WANTED TO NAME HIM SOMETHING DIFFERENT. WE ALL HAVE SOME THEYS IN LIFE. PEOPLE THAT WILL TRY TO NAME YOU SOMETHING THAT YOU'RE NOT. THEY MAY BE WELL MEANING. WHEN MY FATHER WAS A TEENAGER, HIS PARENTS TOLD HIM THAT HE COULDN'T BECOME A MINISTER. THAT ALL HE KNEW HOW TO DO WAS PICK COTTON. GOD NAMED HIM A PASTOR, BUT THEY NAMED HIM LESS THAN, NOT UP TO PAR. IF HE WOULD'VE ACCEPTED THEIR NAMES HE WOULD'VE NEVER IMPACTED THE WORLD. DON'T LET THEY NAME YOU. LET GOD NAME YOU. ELIZABETH SAID TO THEM, "NO, HIS NAME WILL NOT BE ZECHARIAH. HIS NAME WILL BE JOHN." THEY SAID, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN? NOBODY IN YOUR FAMILY IS NAMED JOHN. THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE." THEY WENT TO ZECHARIAH THE FATHER TO ASK HIM WHAT THE BABY'S NAME WOULD BE. HE STILL COULDN'T SPEAK. SO HE WROTE ON A TABLET. HIS NAME IS JOHN. AND SUDDENLY HE WAS ABLE TO SPEAK AGAIN. BUT WHAT'S INTERESTING IS THE MOTHER COULDN'T NAME THE BABY. WOMEN IN THOSE DAYS DIDN'T HAVE THE INFLUENCE THAT THEY HAVE TODAY. THE FAMILY, THE FRIENDS, THE NEIGHBORS, THEY COULDN'T NAME THE CHILD. THE ONLY ONE THAT HAD THE AUTHORITY TO NAME THE BABY WAS THE FATHER. THEY HAD TO GO FIND ZECHARIAH TO SEE WHAT THE CHILD'S NAME WOULD BE. THE PRINCIPLE IS YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER IS THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS THE RIGHT TO NAME YOU. DON'T GO THROUGH LIFE LETTING OTHER PEOPLE PUT THEIR NAMES ON YOU. THEY'LL TRY TO NAME YOU ADDICTED, STRUGGLING, DEFEATED. GOD NAMES YOU FREE, WHOLE, VICTORIOUS. THE DAYS WILL NAME YOU AVERAGE, MEDIOCRE. GOD NAMED YOU A MASTERPIECE, ONE OF A KIND, EXCEPTIONAL. PEOPLE WILL TRY TO NAME YOU WASHED UP, TOO MANY MISTAKES. GOD NAMED YOU FORGIVEN, REDEEMED, AND RESTORED. HAVE YOU LET THE THEYS NAME YOU? HAVE YOU LET LIFE CONVINCE YOU WHO YOU ARE, LETTING THOSE NEGATIVE THOUGHTS TELL YOU THAT THERE'S NOTHING GOOD IN YOUR FUTURE? LIKE WITH ABRAHAM AND SARAH, RIGHT NOW GOD IS CHANGING YOUR NAME. YOUR NEW NAMES ARE BLESSED, PROSPEROUS, ONE OF A KIND, VALUABLE, CHILD OF THE MOST HIGH. NOW DO YOUR PART AND ACCEPT THE NAME CHANGE. TUNE OUT ALL THE NEGATIVE AND KEEP CALLING YOURSELF WHAT GOD CALLS YOU. IF YOU'LL DO THIS I BELIEVE AND DECLARE STRONGHOLDS THAT HAVE HELD YOU BACK ARE BEING BROKEN. YOU ARE ABOUT TO STEP UP TO WHO YOU WERE CREATED TO BE, NEW LEVELS OF INFLUENCE, FAVOR, RESTORATION, HEALING, THE FULLNESS OF YOUR DESTINY IN JESUS' NAME. IF YOU RECEIVE IT CAN YOU SAY AMEN TODAY. BUT I'D LIKE TO GIVE YOU AN OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE JESUS THE LORD OF YOUR LIFE. WOULD YOU PRAY WITH ME? JUST SAY, LORD JESUS, I REPENT OF MY SINS. COME INTO MY HEART. I MAKE YOU MY LORD AND SAVIOR. FRIENDS, IF YOU PRAYED THAT SIMPLE PRAYER, WE BELIEVE YOU GOT BORN AGAIN. GET IN A GOOD BIBLE-BASED CHURCH. KEEP GOD FIRST PLACE. > JOEL: THANKS FOR WATCHING THIS MESSAGE. I HOPE YOU ENJOYED IT.

你。
走進您的家是一種
快樂，如果您曾經在
我們的地區，請停下來並成為
我們
服務的一部分。
我向你保證，我們會讓
你有賓至如歸的感覺。
我喜歡從一些有趣的事情開始
，我
聽說過這位科學家。
他對上帝說：“
我們決定不再需要
你。
我們可以克隆人，
移植
心臟，做各種曾經被認為是奇蹟的事情。”
上帝說：“好吧，但為了證明
你不需要我，我們來
一場人造人比賽
。唯一的要求是你必須讓
男人
擺脫泥土。”
科學家說得
很好，伸手去撿了一把泥土。
上帝說，“不要那麼快。
去拿你自己的土。”
照你的意思說。
這是我的聖經。
我就是它所說的我。
我有它所說的我有的。
我可以做它說我可以做的事情
。
今天我將學習
上帝的話語。
我大膽地承認，我的頭腦是
警覺的，我的心是樂於接受的。
我以後不會再像以前一樣。
以耶穌的名義。
上帝祝福你。
我今天想和你
談談改變你的名字。
讓人們為我們
命名是一件很容易的
事。
諸如平均，
不合格，貧窮，上癮之類的事情。
有時我們自己的想法已經命名了
我們。
沒有才華，不夠好，沒有
吸引力。
只要我們穿著這些名字，相信人們和環境告訴我們的謊言，它就會讓
我們失去潛力。
你必須改變你的名字。
我不是在談論你的
出生證明。
我在談論你的
想法。
你相信你是誰？
你如何看待自己？
當上帝將生命
吹入你的內心時，他稱你為有福、
繁榮、有才華、獨一無二
的人。
他稱你為傑作。
人們會稱你為
普通的、普通的、沒有什麼特別的。
如果你接受這些名字，
你將是普通的、普通的、
沒有什麼特別的。
讓許多人退縮的
是他們的
名字錯誤。
一個男人走在泰國一條
繁忙的街道上，他來到了這家紋身店。
在櫥窗裡
，有
很多他們提供的紋身。
一個人說“生來就輸”。
他無法相信任何人
會在他們身上紋上那個
紋身。
主人上來了。
他們展開
了對話。
他問店主是否
有人有過“生而為人”的
紋身。
店主點頭同意，用蹩腳的英語說道
：
“先紋在身上
，先紋在心裡。”
他完全正確。
如果您在腦海中接受這個名字
，如果您相信人們對您的
負面評價
，如果您讓
生活為您命名，那麼您就賦予了
它實現的權利。
在您的腦海中，您的名字是為
輸而生還是為贏而生？
你的名字是貧窮的、破產的、被擊敗的，
還是你的名字是
有福的、繁榮的，超過足夠的
？
您是否讓生活為您
上癮、掙扎、受限
或按照上帝的名字命名
？
自由、完整、勝利、
得勝。
否則，您需要更改
這些名稱。
在聖經中，雅各布的
妻子雷切爾在生下
他們的第二個
兒子時去世了。
嬰兒出生時
很好，但她非常痛苦，就在她死前，她給
嬰兒取名為貝諾尼，意思是我悲傷的
兒子。
在這裡，小嬰兒
沒有做錯任何事，但他將
不得不
度過被稱為“
悲傷之子”的生活。
在那些
日子裡，他們給人們起的名字比今天
重要得多
。
這些名字可以從字面上決定一個人的
命運。
它似乎
只適合小貝諾尼，只是運氣不好
。
他的母親很痛苦。
她把她的痛苦發洩在他身上
。
她宣布他
將過著痛苦、悲傷、
壓抑的生活。
有時，那些
應該對
你說
實話、稱你有才華、有價值、
傑作
的人卻做了相反的
事情，因為他們正在受傷，因為他們在痛苦中，他們稱你不足，不夠
好。
他們可能沒有說出來，
但他們如何讓你感覺，
讓你失望，沒有表現出
你的愛和感情。
好消息是上帝
給你的名字壓倒了人們給你的
名字。
他們可能會稱你為悲傷之
子、痛苦之子、
失敗之子。
上帝稱你為勝利之子
、恩寵之子、
祝福之子。
不要讓人們對你的負面評價，
你是
如何成長的，你
沒有得到什麼，來決定你的
命運。
更改您的姓名。
雷切爾死後幾分鐘，雅各布跑了進來。
護士把
嬰兒遞給他，說這是你的
兒子。
他的名字是貝諾尼。
當雅各布聽到這個消息時，內心升起了某種
東西
。
他說：“不，那不是他的
名字。
無論過去發生了什麼，
無論別人怎麼說，他都不會被
稱為悲傷之子。
他的名字是本傑明。”
本傑明的意思是
力量之子，力量之子。
在那一刻，隨著
那個名字的改變，他從
悲傷之子變成了
力量之子。
本傑明繼續成為
偉大的領導者。
出於他的基因，他的
家族，出現了
以色列的國王。
一個接一個的國王。
上帝為本傑明安排了一項偉大的任務，
但他知道，如果他度過了被稱為悲傷之子的
生活
，
那他的內心會很
痛苦。
他會認為自己是
有限的和被擊敗的。
所以上帝站出來說：
“不，他不會成為
悲傷之子。
他不是失敗之子。
這個孩子是
命運之子。
這個孩子有他的
偉大。”
現在也許有人試圖
說出你的名字是平均的
、不合格的、沒有吸引力的、太多的
錯誤。
上帝對你說，他
對本傑明說的話。
“我要更改你的名字。
不再是悲傷之子，不再是不夠好之子，
我要重新命名你為
力量之子，命運之
女，偉大之子。”
現在您必須儘自己的一份力量
，擺脫舊名稱。 當上帝稱
你為力量之子時，敵人會喜歡你
作為
悲傷之子生活
。
他知道你有什麼。
這就是為什麼他一直在與
你戰鬥，因為你還是個
小孩子，試圖改變你的
名字，通過人們，通過
失望，通過你自己的錯誤和失敗。
但是，當您學會將自己的
名字改回被
創造時的身份時，所有
黑暗的力量都無法
阻止您。
當你知道你是一個
力量之子，裝備齊全，有能力，有才華和創造力，被上帝的恩寵所環繞，王室的
血液流過
你的血管，那麼門就會打開，任何人都無法
關閉。
合適的人會突然出現。
您將克服看起來太大的
障礙。
當你有正確的名字時，
你會走得比你
想像的更遠。
我知道一個人，
他的高中輔導員告訴他他
不是很聰明，他
應該從事他能找到的最低
技能的工作。
輔導員可能是
好意，但人們不知道
你心裡有什麼。
他們看不到你
偉大的種子。
這就是為什麼大衛的父親
把大衛留在
牧羊人的地裡。
當
先知來任命一個兒子為
下一任國王時。
大衛看起來很普通。
他不喜歡他的
哥哥 ELIAB。
他又高又帥。
他看起來像個國王。
大衛的父親認為
大衛永遠不會有太多的錢。
他沒什麼特別的。
他將大衛命名為平均，但
上帝將他命名為巨人殺手。
他稱他為牧童。
上帝稱他為歷史
創造者。
他的父親叫大衛，他的錢不會
太多。
神稱他為以色列之王。
不要
讓人們在你身上看不到的東西告訴你
你知道你是誰。
這位顧問在這個年輕人身上沒有
看到任何
特別之處。
他認為他低於平均水平，
沒有才華，勉強
過得去。
30 年來，這個人
一直相信那些謊言。
他四處走動，認為我不夠
聰明。
我達不到標準。
我沒有別人
有的。
他在當地工廠工作，年復一年地留在
最低層職位
。
有一天工廠關門了。
他穿過城鎮去了
另一家工廠併申請了
一份工作。
他們有一個政策，每個
申請人都必須進行智商
測試。
他接受了測試。
他的分數回到了
天才的水平。
老闆打電話給他，說
你在做什麼
申請這個低級職位。
在我們公司 60 年的歷史中，您的得分高於任何人
。
那一天，他心中的一個堡壘被打破了
。
他意識到顧問在他身上看不到的東西並
沒有定義他是誰。
人們對
你說過什麼，或者他們沒有對
你
說過什麼，並沒有改變你的內心。
它並沒有削弱你的
潛力。
偉大
仍在。
他做了我要我們做的事
。
他改了名字。
沒有更多的不夠好。
沒有更多沒有才華。
他開始認為自己是
聰明的、有價值的，
就像擁有偉大種子的人一樣。
最終他創辦了
自己的公司。
他繼續發明了幾種
產品，這些產品現已獲得
專利並且非常成功。
你不能
阻止人們說消極的話，但
我知道你不是人們
所說的你，你是
你的答案。
他們可能會說你
沒有吸引力、不合格、
不合格。
沒關係。
只是不要回答它。
當思想說
你好恐懼，你好沮喪，你好不安全時——
你
不能和我說話，那不是我。
我有信心。
我很安全。
我是勝利者。
您好，您好
，您好，您好，您好，您好，慢性疼痛。
對不起，這裡沒有
那個名字的人。
你一定有錯誤的
地址。
我是健康的，完整的，
精力充沛的。
那就是住在這裡的人。
您是否正在回答您沒有回答的問題
？
放棄你的時間和
精力，讓那些消極的想法
發揮作用。
那不是你。
當思想低語時，“你
不值得被祝福。
你犯了太多錯誤。
你不配。”
認識到正在發生的事情。
他們正試圖重命名你。
當你聽到寬恕、救贖、恢復的聲音時，
那就是
你需要傾聽的時候。
好吧，你好，不合格，沒有經驗，
少於。
打擾一下？
你的意思是受膏、
備受寵愛、健康嗎？
這就是我。
當思想告訴你你
沒有魅力時，沒有人願意在你身邊
，你
沒有一個好的個性，
你太高太矮了。
不要給那個
時間。
當你聽到你好
傑作時，你好
好看，你好高大，黑暗
和英俊。
是的，我有什麼可以幫助您的嗎？
現在你在呼喚我的名字。
回答勝利。
回答令人恐懼和奇妙的
製造。
回答得勝者。
長大後，我在
學校的朋友曾經叫我花生，
因為我很小。
沒有人
說它帶有貶義，但我可以
告訴你這對我的自尊沒有幫助
。
一整天，“嘿，
花生，怎麼樣？”
打籃球，“花生把
球傳給我。”
我無法阻止他們
叫我花生，但我從
不讓花生進入
裡面。
我沒有讓他們改變
我知道我是誰。
是的，我很小，但在
內心深處，我知道我有一個歷史創造者
。
我沒有我的一些
朋友那麼強壯，但我知道裡面有
一個巨人
殺手。
他們看不到它。
他們所能
看到的只是花生，但我從來沒有讓
花生在我身上生根。
甚至進入高中。
我大一的時候身高 4 英尺
11 英寸。
高中畢業後我成長了
很多，但你可以
想像在我的籃球比賽中，人們會說
，“看看那個
小孩。
看看他有多小。”
我從來沒有那樣看自己。
我在外面可能有 4 英尺 11
英尺，但在
裡面我有 7 英尺高。
人們
可以給你打電話很多事情，但你不必
讓它進入你。
回到上帝對你說的話
。
讓你的天父命名
你，不是人，不是你的
錯誤，不是你的過去。
上帝稱你是卓越的。
他稱你為救贖和
寬恕。
他稱你健康而
完整。
他稱你為傑作、
巨人殺手、歷史
創造者。
現在做你的一部分，讓
他的名字覆蓋你的所有
其他名字。
你的任務太
重要了
，
不能用像劣等、不合格、平均這樣的名字。
我要求你更改這些
名稱並
與上帝達成協議。
我的一個朋友在
薩爾瓦多長大。
他的父親是個
酒鬼，當他喝酒時會變得非常暴力
。
當他還是個
孩子的時候，他的母親搬到了美國。
他是由他的
祖父母撫養長大的。
作為一個小男孩，他感到迷失
和困惑。
他在學校表現很差。
他沒有
與人進行社交互動。
有一天，他無意中聽到他的祖父母談論他是
如何精神受損的。
他是一個學習緩慢的人，他是
如何需要幫助的。
他們把
他送到精神病醫生那裡，他確認
這個小男孩有所有
這些學習障礙。
他被一遍又一遍地告訴他，
他永遠不會有太多
錢。
他沒有天賦。
他不夠聰明。
10 歲時，他即將
和母親一起搬回美國。
他告訴他的
祖父他需要一個美國名字。
他從來沒有
聽過祖父說過
他的好話，但
祖父卻抬頭看向
空中，開始思考。
他說：“好的，兒子，這個
名字需要
非常強大。一些代表
榮譽的東西。一些代表
勇氣的東西。
它需要是一個
偉大的領導者的名字，一個天才的名字，一個會
影響
世界的人的名字。 "
他說：“我知道了。
你的新名字將是 ERWIN。”
好吧，這個小男孩從來沒有聽說過歐文這個名字。
他不喜歡那個名字。
他想要一個像約翰或比爾這樣的普通美國
名字。
多年來，他和母親一起從一個
州搬到另一個州
。
他可以隨時
改名，但他不
會這樣做。
儘管他不喜歡他的
新名字，但讓他保留
它的是他唯一一次
聽到有人說
他要做一些
偉大的事情。
他的祖父母、老師、顧問從不鼓勵他，但那天他聽說他將影響世界，他將成為一個有榮譽感和勇氣的人，
那是一個
天才
的名字
。
他知道所有關於他的負面評價
，但
今天有人說
他很特別，他有
偉大的種子。
每次他想
回頭，安於平庸時，
他都會記得他的祖父
所說的那個名叫歐文的人所代表的。
今天，我們的朋友 ERWIN MCMANUS 是一位了不起的
牧師
、作家和電影製作人。
周圍最聰明的人之一，
但我想知道我們
是否聽說過 ERWIN。
我想知道如果他
沒有改名，他的禮物會不會出來。
如果他的祖父沒有提醒他他的真實
身份
，不是人們說他是
誰，不是專家說
他是誰，不是
環境說他是
誰，而是上帝說他是誰，一個
傑作，有價值，有
種子的天賦
偉大的。
也許就像 ERWIN 一樣，從來沒有人告訴過
你你的真實身份
。
生活給
你起了一些名字，告訴
你你不能做什麼，你不是什麼，你是如何
犯了太多錯誤的。
上帝讓你聽到這些，
因為他希望你
改變你的名字。
不再平庸。
再也不會在那裡迷路了。
你是偉大的。
當上帝創造你時，他把
自己的一部分放在你裡面。
他裝備了
你，賦予了你力量，並膏抹了你。
他用他的寵愛加冕了你
。
你的新名字是有福的、繁榮的、有能力的、被
原諒的、有
才華的、獨一無二的
、傑作。
當上帝給亞伯拉罕和
莎拉他們將要生
孩子的應許時，
他們都太老了。
這看起來不可能，但上帝
做了一些不尋常的事情。
他不僅給了他們應
許，還把他們的名字從亞伯蘭改成了亞伯拉罕。
亞伯拉罕的意思是多國之
父。
當上帝改變他的名字時，
他們沒有一個孩子。
然而
，
每次有人說：“你好，亞伯拉罕，”他們是在說：“你好，萬國之
父。”
他們是在對他的命運
說出信心。
您不斷聽到的內容開始
深入人心。
這就是
為什麼擁有正確的名字如此重要。
我很幸運。
我很有天賦。
我很健康。
好吧，喬爾，我感覺
不健康。
好吧，請繼續這樣稱呼自己。
這
就是讓它發生的原因。
我不感到幸福。
我負債累累。
我正在掙扎。
我有這些賬單。
你是對的，亞伯拉罕在
哪裡。
他本可以說，我們沒有
孩子。
我們不會要孩子的
。
上帝，我的妻子已經經歷了人生的
轉變。
這就是為什麼上帝改變了他的
名字，所以他會一次又一次地聽到它
。
你是許多
國家的父親。
你可能不會感到幸福。
你很想談論你沒有的
東西，它如何
不會改善，這就是
你在這裡的原因。
上帝正在改變你的名字，
從缺乏，從掙扎，
從不夠，
到有福，到繁榮，到
綽綽有餘。
現在你必須不斷地呼喚自己，
上帝對
你的評價。
可能不會在一夜之間發生。
亞伯拉罕等了好幾年。
但每次你稱自己為
上帝命名的你時，
它的內心就會變得
更深。
它正在改變你的自我
形象。
它正在重新規劃您的
思維。
我敢肯定，
亞伯拉罕多次想，“我們永遠不會
有孩子。”
關於那個時候有人會走上來叫
他的名字。
嘿，亞伯拉罕。
他會被提醒你是
許多國家的父親。
在你得到祝福之前，你必須稱自己是
有福的。
當您仍在與疾病作
鬥爭時，您必須
自稱健康。
當
您仍在
與成癮作鬥爭時，請自由自在。
擁有正確的名字可以
幫助
你保持堅強，這樣你就可以
成為上帝對你所說的那樣
。
上帝把莎拉的名字從
莎拉改成了莎拉。
莎拉的意思是公主。
如果有人不覺得自己像個
公主，那一定是
莎拉。
她已經生育了
80 多年。
她不覺得有吸引力，
也不覺得特別。
一切都告訴她，你已經完成了
。
你永遠不會有孩子。
她本可以說：“不要
改我的名字。
就叫
我吧，莎萊。我不是公主，那
不會有任何好處。”
不，她接受了
改名。
她實際上說，這
似乎是不可能的。
賠率對我不利，但如果上帝說我是公主，
那麼我將
與他達成協議。 每次有人說
早安，莎拉，他們
都是在說早安公主。
她
聽說，很多時候，內心的某些東西開始
活躍起來。
信心開始興起。
不久之後，
承諾就實現了
。
您可能會遇到一些情況，
您看不到它如何影響
您的健康、
職業和人際關係。
你的反對看起來是
永久性的。
就像亞伯拉罕和莎拉一樣，
上帝正在改變你的名字。
你已經上癮
多年了，上帝呼召你
自由。
你還沒能
生孩子。
你一直不孕。
上帝稱
你子宮的果實是有福的。
他叫你媽媽。
你的夢想似乎太大了。
你沒有
經驗，沒有培訓。
上帝呼召你
成功。
他稱你為富足、
繁榮、豐富。
現在整個關鍵是您是否會
喜歡他們並接受
名稱更改。
你會繼續稱自己為
上帝所說的你嗎，
即使它沒有
意義？
每次你這樣做，它的內在
都會變得更
強大，最終你將
成為上帝命名的
你。
路加福音 第 1 章，一位天使出現在
撒迦利亞面前，告訴
他他的妻子
伊麗莎白將要生一個孩子，他們將給他起
名叫約翰。
嗯，就像莎拉一樣，伊麗莎白
太老了。
撒迦利亞問天使
這是怎麼發生的。
天使向他保證，
上帝的應許會實現
，但因為
撒迦利亞懷疑他會
保持沉默，直到
嬰兒出生。
從那一刻起，他就
不能說話了。
九個月後，伊麗莎白
生下了一個男嬰。
家人和
親戚都非常興奮，他們來到家裡
慶祝。
1:59 說他們想以
他父親的名字命名兒子撒迦利亞
。
上帝說他的名字是約翰，但
他們想給他起一個
不同的名字。
我們都有一些他們在
生活中。
人們會
試圖說出你
不是的東西。
他們可能是好意思。
當我父親還是個
少年時，他的父母告訴他，他
不能成為
一名部長。
他所知道的就是挑選
棉花。
上帝稱他為牧師，但
他們對他的稱呼比他低，沒有達到標準
。
如果他接受他們的名字，
他將永遠
不會影響世界。
不要讓他們說出你的名字。
讓上帝為你命名。
伊麗莎白對他們說：“不，
他的名字不會是
撒迦利亞。
他的名字會是約翰。”
他們說：“你是什麼意思？你
家裡沒有人叫約翰。這沒有任何意義。”
他們去見父親撒迦利亞，問他
嬰兒的名字是什麼。
他還是不能說話。
所以他在平板電腦上寫道。
他的名字是約翰。
突然間，他又能說話了
。
但有趣的是
母親無法為
嬰兒命名。
那個時代的女性
沒有今天的影響力。
家人、朋友、
鄰居，他們都叫不出
孩子的名字。
唯一有權為嬰兒
命名的人是父親。
他們必須去找撒迦利亞，看看
孩子的名字
是什麼。
原則是你的
天父是唯一
有權命名
你的人。
不要讓
其他人把他們的名字
放在你身上。
他們會試圖說出你
上癮、掙扎、
失敗的名字。
上帝命名你是自由的、完整的、
得勝的。
日子會讓你
平庸，平庸。
上帝稱你為傑作，
獨一無二，獨一無二。
人們會試圖說出你洗過澡的名字，錯誤太多。
神命名你被赦免、
救贖和恢復。
你讓他們給你起名字了
嗎？
你有沒有讓生活讓
你相信你是誰，讓
那些消極的想法告訴
你，
你的未來沒有好事？
就像亞伯拉罕和莎拉一樣，
現在上帝正在改變
你的名字。
你的新名字是有福的、繁榮的
、獨一無二的、
有價值的、最高的
孩子。
現在做你的一部分並
接受名稱更改。
消除所有負面情緒，繼續
呼喚自己，
上帝呼喚你。
如果你這樣做，我
相信並宣布，支撐你的堡壘正在被
打破。
你即將
步入你被創造成為的樣子，
新的影響力、
恩寵、修復、醫治，以耶穌的名義完成你
的命運。
如果您收到它，您
今天可以說阿門。
但我想給你一個
機會，讓耶穌
成為你生命的主宰。
你願意和我一起祈禱嗎？
只是說，主耶穌，我
悔改我的罪。
進入我的心。
我使你成為我的
主和救主。
朋友們，如果你祈禱了那個
簡單的祈禱，我們相信你已經
重生了。
進入一個良好的聖經
教會。
把上帝放在第一位。
