遇到問題、發生衝突、被人誤解時,我們很想自己動手解決問題,趕快把事情結束,使一切回歸正軌。但這種情形如同馬太福音十三章裡農夫撒種的比喻,農夫撒下麥種,田裡卻長出麥子和稗子。稗子不是農夫撒下的,而是仇敵夜間進來,偷偷播種。工人們很想拔出稗子,但農夫說這會毀損麥子的生長,需要等到收成的時候,再來處理稗子...
well God bless you it's great to be with
you today and they are so corny but here
we go 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'll 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
leave it
alone we all have situations that we're
believing will change a child is off
course or someone's not treating us
right a door is closed we feel this
pressure to fix it I've got to
straighten this person out I got to
force this door to open I got to make
this problem resolve we take matters
into our own hands and we strive and
strain often end up frustrated we have
good intentions we want to do our part
but there are times when the best thing
you can do is leave it alone you have to
be still and know that he is God that
battle is not yours the battle is the
Lord's some things you can't fix no
matter how hard you try how much
pressure you put how many favors you
call in it's not going to change and if
if you keep forcing it and manipulating
things trying to convince this person to
do right it's not only going to bring
more stress but you're making matters
worse you're going to do more damage
than good well Joel I'm trying to use my
faith sometimes it takes more faith to
do nothing than it does to get it all
stirred up takes more faith to leave it
alone than it does to try to force it to
happen but there will be this urgency
that underlying pressure telling you you
have to do something you have to defend
yourself don't let them get away with it
you have to manipulate things so you can
get that promotion you have to make your
loved one do what's right don't fall
into that trap after you've prayed you
believe you've done what you can you
have to take your hands off of it God I
trust you I know you've got this you're
working all things for my good God while
I'm waiting I'm going to stay in peace
I'm going to be still and let you do
what only you can do this was hard for
me because I'm a doer my personality
type is not to sit back if I have a
problem a goal a dream I'm going to find
six Solutions call three experts line up
four options come up with the strategy
the plan that's all in the first half of
the day the next half I'm going to
really work I believe in being on the
offensive taking steps of Faith but I've
learned some things only God can change
the more you try to force it the more
frustrated you're going to be the
psalmist said unless the Lord builds the
house we labor in vain how many of us
are laboring in vain constantly
struggling always trying to force things
to happen trying to change our spouse
and convince this coworker to like us
and harping on our kids to get back on
course it's like we're running uphill
with leg weights on everything's a
burden but if we're not putting forth
all this effort trying to make it work
out you can kind of feel guilty I got
this problem Joel I got to do something
but it says in Hebrews those who have
believed enter into rest it's okay to
leave it alone you don't have to make it
happen in your own efforts give yourself
permission to rest to not worry about it
not strive not come up with 12 Solutions
you've done your part now take your
hands off it's not going to happen just
by your might by your power by your
intellect it's going to be the hand of
God you don't have to force the favor
you don't have to beat down doors make
your business grow make yourself get
well pay somebody back for doing you
wrong prove to them who you are all all
that's going to do is drain your energy

is saying to you today leave it alone

the right person I'm going to turn your
business around I'm going to change that
child I'm going to restore your health
I'm going to give you that baby you've
been dreaming about when you turn it
over to God it takes the pressure off
you don't have to figure it all out you
don't have to strive and strength it's
not up to you to make it all happen you
can live in peace knowing that God's got
this Jesus told a parable in Matthew 13
a farmer went out and planted wheat in
his field he did the right thing he
sewed good seed he was expecting the
wheat to come up and have a great
harvest like he'd seen year after year
but in a few months he not only saw the
wheat but there were weeds coming up
everywhere when the workers saw it they
were puzzled they said to the farmer
what happened you didn't sew this we saw
you plant good seeds didn't make sense
he said in verse 28 an enemy came in at
night and planted these weeds wasn't the
farmer's fault he had to sleep wasn't
like he was lazy he did the right thing
but still the wrong thing happened just
because you have difficulties doesn't
mean you've done something wrong wrong
you may have swn good seed you've been
faithful you honor God you give you
serve you go the extra mile but now you
have some weeds popping up in your field
things you didn't sew you don't
understand it you raised your child
right but he's gotten off course you
could blame yourself what did I do wrong
you didn't do anything wrong the enemy
came in at night and sowed some weeds
maybe you worked hard in your business
you got there early stayed late you've
done more than you have to but you had a
setback you lost a client a competitor
moved close took some of your business
you could be frustrated wondering why
this happened it's just a weed the good
news is the reason you have weeds is
because the enemy knows you're going to
have a great harvest he wouldn't have
snuck in at night and planted the weeds
if he didn't know abundance is coming
healing is coming promotion is coming
the right people are coming don't get
discouraged over the weeds that's a sign
that something amazing is in your future
well Joel I was doing the right thing
but this door closed these people did me
wrong I came down with this illness why
did this happen Have A New Perspective
the enemy would not have wasted his time
sewing weeds into your field if you
weren't destined for greater things
destined destined for new levels
destined to take your family where
they've never been when the workers saw
all the weeds they asked the farmer
should we go pull up these weeds he said
no if you pull up the weeds you're going
to damage the wheat let them grow
together and when the Harvest is ready
then they'll be
separated the workers wanted to fix the
problem they wanted to help get rid of
these weeds but this farmer said leave
it alone you didn't sew the weed you
don't have to pull up the weed if they
would have been stubborn we're not going
to let these weed stay we're going to
fix this problem if they had taken
matters into their own hands they would
have ruined the Harvest I can imagine
the farmer seeing those weeds every day
that had to have bothered him I don't
like these weeds things are out of order
people going to think I'm lazy I'm not a
good farmer I need to make this right he
had to fight the temptation to pull up
the weeds was something he could have
done he had the ability to correct a
problem but he knew it would have
damaged his Harvest it takes Faith to
leave it alone when you take your hands
off and not pull up What you know you
can fix but you let God take care of it
that's not a lack of faith that's great
faith when you can say God I trust you
with my weeds I trust you with things I
don't understand not going to get in a
hurry and try to fix things that will
damage my Harvest I'm going to leave it
alone that's a powerful
position but maybe today there are weeds
in your life things you don't understand
you know you didn't sew it the enemy
came in at night you could live worried
and feel this pressure to pull up the
weeds and fix the problem change this
person person manipulate this situation
there's an urgency saying do it now
these weeds aren't right God is saying
be still and let me take care of it
that's not your battle you didn't sew it
you don't have to pull it up one of the
greatest tests we'll ever face is to be
still and know that he is God to leave
things in his hands one critical thing
said in this Parable is if you don't
leave it alone you're going to damage
the Harvest doing it your way forcing
things manipulating striving you may get
something done but it will be less than
God's V you have to know at the right
time when your Harvest is ready God will
take care of your weeds he'll turn your
child around he'll vindicate you in
front of your enemies he'll promote you
to levels you never saw coming there are
a couple of situations I'm praying about
now and believing that they will turn
around there's this underlying pressure
this feeling that Joy you need to make a
decision right now you better take
action if you delay it's going to get
worse the enemy would love to get us all
worked up to where you're in a hurry
there's this urgency you have to do
something now come on there are weeds
popping up your child your finances your
health sometimes we hear that phrase do
something L you do nothing that's not
always good advice Sometimes the best
thing to do is nothing you don't have to
fix it today you don't have to decide
this minute you're not supposed to pull
up the weeds right now take all that
pressure off it's very freeing when you
say God my life is in your hands I trust
you to take care of my weeds I'm not
going to take matters into my own hands
I know you're fighting my battles I'm
going to be still and know that you are
God when my father had a big decision to
make something that was concerning him
maybe a problem where he didn't see a
solution instead of being pressured to
make a move he told how he' put that
problem up on a shelf and pray about it
every voice would say what are you going
to do you have to decide now he would
say no I'm going to wait on the Lord
this is not my battle he's taken care of
my weeds over time he would see those
situations work themselves out are there
some things you need to put on a shelf
you feel this pressure to figure out
things where there's no good solution
come up with strategies change things
that only God can change that's not your
job and sometimes there's no logical
solution God is going to supernaturally
turn it around if we take matters into
our own hands we're going to be frustr
rated and too often we're fighting
battles that we're not supposed to fight
we're trying to pull up weeds when God
said he'd be our gardener he will take
care of the weeds he has many advantages
one is he knows when the Harvest is
ready if you pull it up too soon that
will lessen what God has for you this
Parable Ends by saying when it's the
right time the farmer who represents God
will separate at the weeds from the
Harvest he'll bundle up all the weeds
and throw them into a fire if you'll
leave the weeds alone then at the right
time you're going to see some smoking
weeds things that have hindered you
things that have hindered you people
that tried to stop you closed doors all
those weeds are going to go up in smoke
God is going to turn things around and
make ways where you don't see a way
here's the key
the Reason God is waiting to deal with
those weeds is because your Harvest is
going to be greater than you thought God
could have pulled that weed earlier but
he has something bigger than you've
imagined the question is will you trust
him with your weeds it's tempting to
take matters into our own hands I got to
pull up this weed oh you prayed you
believed you've done what you can God is
saying leave it alone let me take care
of of it when God brought the Israelites
out of slavery they started toward the
promised land but the pharaoh changed
his mind and came chasing after them
with 600 of his strongest Warriors and
fastest chariots the Israelites could
see them coming way off in the distance
and they were at a dead end at the Red
Sea and nowhere to go they begin to
panic so afraid and distraught they ran
to Moses to get a plan they they said we
have to do something right now they're
going to be here by Nightfall we have a
few hours to come up with a strategy
they felt this pressure this urgency
they were on the verge of being
recaptured Moses said in Exodus 14
here's what the Lord says our strategy
is stand still and you will see the
salvation of the Lord hold your peace
remain at rest for the Lord himself will
fight for you I'm sure they looked at
him and said Moses are you kidding us
these powerful warriors are quickly
approaching you're telling us your
strategy is to do nothing leave it alone
can you go back and get a second opinion
Moses said no we didn't sew this weed we
don't have to pull up this weed this is
not our battle Proverbs says don't say
I'll get even for the wrong wait for the
Lord to handle the matter if you'll wait
God will vindicate you better than you
can vindicate yourself his solution is
better than your solution hold your
peace remain at rest you may not see
anything happening but God is up to
something as these two million people
were camped at the Red Sea the scripture
says the angel of the Lord who had been
leading the Israelites moved to a
position behind them this thick Cloud
that was leading them also moved behind
them it was between the Israelites camp
and the pharaoh's camp now Pharaoh's
Army couldn't see the Israelites God had
them hidden the cloud was so thick they
couldn't travel through it they didn't
know where they were it looked like the
Israelites were running out of time but
God knows how to hide you he knows how
to confuse your enemies one minute the
Israelites were right in front of them
the next moment they disappeared that's
when Moses raised the rod and the waters
parted the Israelites walked through on
dry ground at that point the cloud
lifted Pharaoh's Army came chasing there
they are but when they got in the sea
the waters closed back up and they all
drowned what am I saying God knows how
to take care of your weeds if you will
stand still you will see him show out in
your life and I'm not saying be passive
we need to pray believe do what you can
but there comes a time where you have to
turn it over to God quit worrying about
it quit trying to make it happen make
people like you make the door open make
the business turn around leave it alone
if you try to do it in your own strength
it's going to be laboring in vain lot of
work frustration disappointment don't
fall into that Trap God is in control he
sees what you're going through he knows
who's not treating you right the doors
that haven't open the child that's
breaking your heart that medical report
that's not good these are things that
only God can change and takes all the
pressure off to say God I'm turning it
over to you I'm going to quit trying to
force it not going to take matters into
my own hands God I trust you with my
life friend of mine raised his family in
church and they great people faithful
and loving their children were involved
in the kids programs where they lived
and they went to the camps and
volunteered in their teams these parents
did everything right look like a model
family but in college the son got
involved with the wrong people and
started making bad decisions he ended up
dropping out on drugs getting into all
kinds of trouble he got to the point
where he' barely even see his family
this friend of mine like any parent was
doing everything he could to try to
convince his son to get back on track
and he had had so many heated
conversations where he had let him have
it and try to get through his
stubbornness but he realized the more he
did that the worse it got he was trying
to help he had good intentions but he
was damaging the relationship further he
finally did what this farmer had to to
do he said God I'm going to leave it
alone I can't change him only you can he
and his wife they kept praying believing
declaring God's promises but they quit
trying to force him to change and make
him do what's right as a parent he kind
of felt like he had failed he tried to
be a good example tried to guide and
teach his son he never dreamed it would
turn out like this but sometimes the
enemy comes in at night and sews a weed
there are things that don't make sense
that are not fair the good news is
that's not how your story ends the enemy
doesn't have the final say he may sew
some seeds but that does not stop your
Harvest there is a day coming when those
weeds are going to be pulled God is
faithful he sees you doing the right
thing years went by and they didn't see
anything improving nothing was getting
any better but they just kept loving
their son encouraging him they sent him
to rehab again and again not long ago he
was watching our service on television
he called his father and said Dad I just
prayed that prayer with Joel at the end
of the program I'm turning my life back
over to God these parents never saw it
coming we all have these times where we
find weeds things popping up that we
didn't seow we were being our best doing
the right thing and now there's
opposition Conflict at work situation in
our health set back in our finances it's
easy to get frustrated and try to
straighten people out try to force the
door to open defend ourself against what
was said that's when you have to hold
your peace remain at rest and let God
fight that
battle Sometimes the best strategy is to
do nothing leave it alone it can also be
the hardest strategy we want to fix
things we want to vindicate ourselves we
want to push that door open but you have
to stand still to see the salvation of
the Lord if you'll not take matters into
your own hands you'll see God do things
that you could never do couple of years
after I started ministering the church
begin to grow and more and more people
were watching on television and I was
amazed at what all was happening I'd
been behind the scenes all those years
and I didn't even know this was in me
but with greater influence came more
opposition there were several very
well-known people with large followings
that didn't like my message of Hope and
they came out against me very strongly
and wrote articles and talked about me
at their meetings and much of what they
were saying wasn't accurate human nature
is you want to get in there and set the
record straight I thought let me tell
you who I am I'm not going to let you
mischaracterize me but deep down I could
hear a still small voice saying no Joel
leave it alone they don't control your
destiny they're just a weed but the
enemy would love to get us distracted
fighting battles that don't matter you
don't have time to waste responding to
people that are never going to be for
you some people are determined to
misunderstand you they don't like the
favor on your life they don't like the
fact that you're happy that you're
blessed you're successful don't spend
your valuable time dealing with the weed
the enemy wouldn't have swn the weed if
he didn't know you were a world changer
a history maker a giant killer ignore
the weeds don't read the comments don't
dwell on what they said if I had not
done what I'm asking you to do and leave
leave it alone I wouldn't be up here
today if I had tried to straighten
everyone out convince every critic to
change their mind make them like me I
wouldn't have had the energy the
creativity the anointing to do what
God's called me to do it's interesting
now years later those that were so vocal
against me and had such a big platform
they're no longer around they had issues
and made choices that have cause things
to fall apart you won't reach your
destiny dealing with all the weeds when
the enemy comes in at night and sews
weed in your good soil things that
aren't fair you don't understand don't
panic don't get upset let God deal with
the weeds life is too short your time
too valuable your assignment too
important to spend it on things that
don't matter are there some things today
that you know you need to leave leave
alone you're striving trying to force it
living stress nothing's changing why
don't you come back to a place of Peace
you have to give yourself permission to
rest this takes all the pressure off
that urgency that makes you feel like
it's up to you to keep the world
rotating making everything happen God's
in control you keep honoring him being
your best and God will take care of your
weeds he'll bring the right people he'll
open the right doors he'll turn your
child around he hasn't brought you this
far to leave you those weeds are not
stopping your Harvest they're a
distraction to try to steal your peace
get your live all worked up frustrated
bitter try a new strategy leave it alone
you can go out of here today A Lot Freer
with that load lifted off of you knowing
that pulling weeds is not your job
making everything work out is not your
assignment you don't have to force the
favor when your Harvest is ready all the
forces of Darkness cannot stop what God
has for you the reason it's taking
longer is because your Harvest is bigger
than you think what God has for you is
going to supersede what you have in mind
the question is will you trust him while
you're waiting will you be still and let
him fight your battles if you'll leave
it alone I believe and declare like with
the Israelites God is going to deliver
you from powerful enemies sickness
addictions debt people he's about to
turn your child around break strongholds
that have held your family back freedom
is coming wholeness is coming abundance
is coming the fullness of your destiny
in Jesus name and if you receive it can
you say Amen
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 if you
prayed that simple prayer we believe you
got born again but I hope you'll get
into a good bible-based church and keep
God first place
