prophetic insight gives us positive outlook on life when Jesus talked about
his suffering before he suffered he always included resurrection
when he he didn't shy away from how much pain he's gonna have to endure the
moment disciples came to the real revelation that he is the son of God he
did not spare any details from how gruesome painful and gory his death is
going to be he would describe the rejection he would risk describe the
betrayal but he never finished his description with the cross he always
would finish with this statement and I will rise three days later even in here
they're glorifying him these people came Greeks came asking for Jesus and Jesus
switches the whole thing he says yeah I know everybody right now is following me
but you have to understand I'm gonna be like a grain sea thrown down in the dirt
in the darkness and he doesn't finish with the dirt and a darkness he always
finished it with his resurrection Jesus trusted the prophetic inside by prophet
David who said you will not leave my soul in the grave he trusted in the
prophetic plan from God the Father for his life
then even looking at his suffering he always had positive outlook through that
suffering Jesus was not a pessimist knowing what he's going to go through he
always finished that thing saying I will rise again
Jesus is the faith man Jesus is a positive man Jesus is an optimist it
oozed out of him it came out of his language it came out out of his tongue
it came out out of his speech true model
Jesus left us is this if I'm going through something I must understand I
have to have a prophetic insight into my future to know that when it's dark when
it's uncertain when it's scary the words God has given to me through the prophet
so-and-so so-and-so so-and-so so-and-so and if you did not get any prophetic
words come to hungry generation you will get a lot of prophetic words but let's
just say you go to a church where you did not get prophetic words you have the
best prophetic word it's called the Bible prophet Jeremiah can give you a
prophetic word in Jeremiah 29 verse 11 there's other prophets that can give you
other words and when you have a prophetic insight into the future you
can look into the darkness without seeing the light and you can have a
positive outlook why because prophetic insight gives you
a positive outlook prophetic insight helps you not to be a pessimist when
things are bad when things are dead when things are not turning around when
things are getting worse you have to be like Jesus I will rise again I will
smile again I will love again I will prosper again I will walk again I will
hear again I will see again I will marry again I will restart my business again
my ministry will grow again you have to have the Spirit of Christ yes I will
suffer yes it will hurt yes it will be difficult but I have a prophetic insight
through the thick darkness I will rise again there
we'll be Sunday morning and I will rise on Sunday morning my family will rise
again my mom and dad will serve God my brother and sister will serve God my
children will be healthy my children will serve God I will rise
again oh it might not be today it might not be tomorrow but on the third day I
will rise this encourages me because see prophecy helps me to see the future if I
don't have a prophetic word I will see a funeral and will see that it will end I
will see that I am it's over for me but having a prophetic word I look beyond
the betrayal beyond my feelings beyond all of what I'm feeling my mood and I
declare with Christ I'll rise again I'll breathe again
I'll walk again I will serve again I will work again I will preach again I
will write again I will live again prophetic insight is so important Jesus
was not a pessimist naysayer Jesus was not a pitiful suffering Messiah he was a
powerful suffering Messiah when he suffered he told his friends things will
be hard but he always told them I'm coming back like a palm tree the goes
through the storm and it gets bent it rises back up Jesus always told his
followers we're coming back I'm coming back I will lose all my followers I will
lose the crowd Pharisees will destroy my reputation but in the third day I will
rise again and we will not just have a small following we will have a movement
the world will not be able to stop that's jesus' optimistic view of his
future what do you see about your future I see thousands locally and millions
globally when I look at even right now this sanctuary it's empty with an
exception of about a few people that are in this room but I see a large auditory
of people that are coming the largest conference that we had at the track
center well over 3,000 people that showed up I see that every single Sunday
coming to our church for just one service I see that our conference
services there will be held at the largest stadiums and I see hundreds of
people coming to know Jesus every single weekend
I see the testimonies we get now of just few healings that happen every single
day we're gonna see hundreds of them every single week we have to look
through the cross we have to see the crowd we have to look through the cross
and we have to see the calling we have to look through the cross and we have to
see our cause we have to look through all of this and we have to have a
prophetic picture we will rise again if you lost your marriage to divorce you
have to look through that and see that you will rise again if you've been
betrayed abused and taken advantage of you have to look through that and you
have to have a prophetic insight into your future the dream that you had as
the child that dream is not postponed keep that in front of you the vision God
has given you keep that in front of you because prophetic inside is not given
God is not playing games with you by stirring up feelings within you of hope
only to squash them with reality God is giving you a prophetic inside the way he
gave to Jesus and Jesus in the middle of everything had a positive outlook and
Jesus is my example Jesus is also your example
