HELLO I'M BRIAN WARREN
I'M LAURA LYNN TYLER
THOMPSON.
WE HAVE GOT AN INCREDIBLE SHOW
FOR YOU TODAY.
HOW IS IT GOING BRIAN?
IT IS ACTUALLY GOING REALLY
GOOD.
I LOVE THIS TIME OF THE YEAR.
WE GOT PENTECOST HAPPENING.
YOU'RE ALWAYS ON THE MOVE
BRIAN.
HOW ABOUT YOURSELF?
GOOD THING YOU GOT THOSE BIG
FOOTBALL LEGS TRAINED
FOR RUNNING.
I DON'T KNOW HOW TO ANSWER
THAT ONE.
IF YOU'RE WATCHING TODAY AND
YOU DON'T KNOW GOD, OR YOU
FEEL FAR FROM HIM, HEAR THESE
WORDS FROM DAVID HIMSELF.
IT COME FROM THE 139 PSALM.
OH LORD YOU HAVE SEARCHED ME
AND KNOW ME.
YOU UNDERSTAND MY THOUGHTS ARE
FAR OFF. YOU BLEND GOD
MY COMPREHEND MY ME.
ON TODAY'S YOU WILL SEE THAT HE
IS ALWAYS WITH YOU.
WE HAVE TWO POWERFUL STORIES
TODAY THAT PROVE THE
FAITHFULNESS OF GOD.
THE FIRST IS ABOUT A YOUNG
KAYAKER IN SEARCH OF
ADVENTURE.
JOHN STOCKTON GOT MORE THAN HE
CAN BARGAIN FOR.
I TELL YOU, YOU REALLY GOT
TO KNOW GOD IN SHARK
INFESTED WATER.
60 YEARS AGO, JOHN MADE GOD HIS
BUSINESS PARTNER.
UP NEXT HE'LL SHARE HOW HIS
BUSINESS HAS GROWN AND WHAT
THIS INCREDIBLE PARTNERSHIP HAS
TAUGHT HIM.
JOHN IS 85 AND STILL GOES TO
WORK BRIGHT AND EARLY
EVERY MORNING.
HE'S CO-OWNER OF A FAMILY
BUSINESS.
ONE OF THE BIGGEST FARMING
OPERATIONS IN THE GREAT
PLAINS.
THEY GROW WHEAT, CORN, SOYBEANS
AND SUNFLOWER ON THEIR
17,000 ACRES.
HE LOVES TO SHARE THE SECRETS
OF HIS SUCCESS.
I TOOK HIM AS MY PARTNER
ABOUT 60 YEARS AGO.
HE'S ALWAYS BEEN WITH ME ALL
THE WAY THROUGH.
HE'S GREAT GOD.
WHEN JOHN AND HIS WIFE FERN
STARTED FARMING, THEY
HAD 480 ACRES.
BEFORE THEY FIRST CROP CAME IN,
HE PRAYED.
I SAID LORD I NEED HELP ON THIS.
I LIKE YOU TO HELP ME WITH THIS
FARMING VENTURE.
I MADE A COMMITMENT I WILL GIVE
20%.
THEIR BUSINESS GREW AND SO
DID THEIR GIVING.
WE STARTED OUT WITH 20% AND
WE'VE GONE THAT TO 30,
40 AND SOMETIMES 50 PERCENT.
I THINK THE LORD PUT IS IN
BRIGHT PLACES.
HE SPEAKS FROM EXPERIENCE.
YOU CAN'T OUTGIVE THE LORD.
ONE THING IS FOR SURE BRIAN
THAT WHAT WE DO WITH OUR
MONEY IS A GOOD GAUGE OF HOW WE
FEEL ABOUT YOUR GOD.
WHEREVER WE'RE WILLING TO
INVEST SHOWS WHAT'S IMPORTANT
TO US.
ABSOLUTELY.
JOHN REALLY SAW HOW BUSINESS
COULD BOOM WHEN HE PUT HIS
TRUST AND FAITH IN GOD.
IT SAYS SOMETHING THAT IS SO
IMPORTANT FOR US TO GET A
HOLD OF.
BUT GOD DOESN'T SEE FINANCES
THE SAME WAY WE DO.
HE WANT TO SEE WHERE IS OUR
OBEDIENCE.
IT'S MORE ABOUT OBEDIENCE AN
SACRIFICE.
DEUTERONOMY SAYS -- LOOK WHAT
HAPPENS.
THIS IS 112 PSALM IT SAYS
PRAISE THE LORD.
BLESS IS THE MAN WHO FEARS THE
LORD.
WATCH THIS, VERSE 2, HIS
DESCENDENTS WILL BE MIGHTY ON
THE EARTH THE GENERATION OF THE
UP RIGHT WILL BE BLESSED.
THIS IS THE LAST ONE, WEALTH
AND RICHES WILL BE IN HIS
HOUSE AND THE RIGHTIOUSNESS
WILL ENDURE FOREVER.
IF HE GIVE YOU ECONOMICS OR
MONETARY OR GIVE YOU
FRIENDS, WHAT WILL HAPPEN AS A
RESULT, IT WILL TURN INTO
IDOL TRI.
IDOLTR.
I REMEMBER AS THE KIDS WERE
GROWING UP, WE TALKED TO
THEM ABOUT TITHING.
YOU CAN'T OUTGIVE GOD.
YOU CAN TRUST HIM KIDS EVEN
WITH YOUR BABY SITTING
MONEY.
IF YOU CAN TRUST GOD AT THAT
LITTLE POINT, HE'S GOING
TO BE ABLE TO TRUST YOU WITH A
WHOLE LOT OF BLESSING.
WHEN GOD CAN TRUST US, HE CAN
BLESS US.
IF YOU DON'T ALLOW THE
CURRENT TO FLOW JUST LIKE
ELECTRICITY OR WATER, YOU STOP
IT AND THEN YOU STRUGGLE TO
SEE ANY TYPE OF POWER IN YOUR
LIFE.
ONCE YOU PUT IT IN GOD'S HANDS,
NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE.
THAT TEST WILL COME.
YOU WILL HAVE THE BILLS AND
GIVE IT TO GOD.
GOD WILL BE WATCHING THAT.
UP NEXT BRIAN WILL GUIDE
THROUGH YOUR OWN PERSONAL
PENTECOST.
TOO OFTEN WE CARRY BAGGAGE
FROM OUR PAST.
IT AFFECTS EVERYTHING AND EVERY
ONE IN OUR LIVES.
IT'S ALWAYS THERE WEIGHING US
DOWN AND KEEPING US FROM
ACHIEVING TRUE HAPPINESS.
DO YOU KNOW GOD NEVER MEANT FOR
US TO BE TRAPPED IN THE
PAST.
YOU CAN BE FREE OF YOUR BAGGAGE.
LEARN HOW GOD'S FORGIVENESS
LEADS TO CHANGED LIVES AND
NEW COMBINATION.
CALL THE 700 CLUB.
WELCOME TO HOPE TO GO.
I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS.
WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT LIVED
HD LIFE OF I'M TALKING
ABOUT LIVING LOUD FOR THE LORD.
THIS IS HOW YOU CAN GET READY
AND BEGIN TO TAP INTO
THIS UNLIMITED POWER.
THERE IS NO FORMULA BUT THERE
IS CERTAIN PRINCIPLES FOR
THE KINGDOM SPIRIT IN POWERED
LIFE.
YOU CAN'T BREAK THE PRINCIPLES
AND EXPECT TO BLAME THE
CLAIM THE
PROMISES.
DEAD EDUCATION, YOU GOT TO HAVE
A DEDICATION IF YOU'RE
GOING TO HAVE A PERSONAL
PENTECOST.
GOD IS NO RESPECTER OF PERSON.
WE STILL NEED GOD'S POWER TO DO
GOD'S WORK.
THAT'S WHY ZACCARIAH 4:6 SAID
THIS WAY, IT'S NOT BY
MIGHT, BUT IT'S MILITARY
STRENGTH BUT BY MY SPIRIT SAYS
THE
LORD.
WHAT WITHOUT BEING FORGIVEN,
THERE'S NO FULLNESS.
IT'S COMMON KNOWLEDGE THAT KIDS
THAT GROW UP IN
CHRISTIAN HOMES GO OFF TO
COLLEGE AND OFTEN LOSE THEIR
FAITH IN COLLEGE.
THEY FIND THEMSELVES IN AN
ENTIRELY NEW WORLD THAT
CHALLENGES MANY THE STANDARDS
THAT THEY'VE GROWN UP WITH.
THEIR FAITH FALTERS.
WHY WOULD THIS HAPPEN.
YOU SAY WHAT?
FRANKLY IT'S OFTEN BECAUSE THE
FAITH THEY LOSE WASN'T
THERES.
IT WAS THEIR PARENT'S FAITH.
THESE CHILDREN HAVE GONE ALONG
WITH THE MORAL AND
BELIEF THAT RULES THEIR HOMES
WHILE THEY WERE AT HOME.
THEY MOVED AWAY SENSE THE FAITH
WASN'T THERES TO BEGIN
W THEY LOST IT.
IN ORDER TO SURVIVE, THEY NEED
TO CHANGE FROM THE FAITH
OF THEIR FATHERS AND MOTHERS TO
THE FAITH OF THEIR OWN.
THAT'S WHY JOHN 15 SAID IT THIS
WAY, I AM THE VINE AND
YOU ARE THE BRANCHES.
ABIDE IN ME OR I ABIDE IN YOU.
SO THE FIRST THING DEDICATION.
NUMBER TWO, DESIRE.
MATTHEW 5:6 SAYS, BLESSED ARE
THOSE WHO HUNGER AND
THIRST.
THEY SHALL BE HEALED. GOD
MOVES TO THE DESPERATE.
THIRSTY WILL BE FILLED AND
DESPERATE WILL GET HEALED.
HE WILL FILL A SMALL VESSEL AND
EVEN A TWISTED VESSEL
AND NEVER A DIRTY VESSEL.
THE DISCIPLE OF CHRIST MUST GET
RID OF THE JUNK IN THE
TRUNK.
AS YOU MOVE ALONG THE ANOINTING
OF GOD IS READY TO POUR
INTO YOU AND NOW YOU CAN
RECEIVE THE BIBLE SAYS, THE
ANSWER
IS THAT YOU ASK LUKE 11:13.
THIS GREEK WORD HERE IS WRITTEN
IN THE PRESENT
IMPERATIVE.
ESSENTIALLY IT'S SAYING, ASK
AND KEEP ON ASKING NOT
JUST ONCE.
THIS EMPOWERMENT ENABLE US TO
FILL GOD'S PURPOSE.
YOU GOT TO FALL INTO HIS HANDS
WITH DEPENDENCY.
YOU CAN GO AND YOU CAN GLOW.
THE HOLY SPIRIT'S PURPOSE IS
CLEAR THAT YOU WILL BE A
WITNESS IN JERUSALEM, AND THE
ENDS OF THE EARTH.
GET PLUGGED IN TODAY.
THAT'S YOUR HOPE TO GO.
THAT IS SO GOOD BRIAN.
YOU KNOW WHAT, THE WORLD OF GOD
SAYS, TRUST IN THE LORD
WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND LEAN
NOT ON YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING
IN ALL YOUR WAYS, IN ALL YOUR
WAYS, IN ALL THINGS AND EVERY
PLAN THAT YOU MAKE.
LEAN ON HIM AND HE WILL MAKE
YOUR PATHS STRAIGHT.
EASIER SAID THAN DONE.
HOW MANY OF YOU OUT THERE GOT
LOTS OF DREAMS AND IDEAS
ABOUT HOW THIS LIFE YOU'RE
LIVING SHOULD GO?
WHEN YOU DO WHAT BRIAN IS
SAYING, YOU TAKE YOUR
PHYSICAL BEING AND SPIRITUAL
BEING AND YOUR MIND AND YOU PUT
YOUR FOCUS ON GOD, HE IF WILL
TAKE YOUR LIFE.
WE NEED TO BECOME DEPENDENT ON
GOD.
THE LIFE GOD HAS PLANNED FOR
YOU IS WAY BETTER THAN THE ONE
YOU GOT PLANNED FOR YOURSELVES.
MY NAME IS BRANDAN CALDWELL.
THIS SERIES ON FINANCIAL WELL
BEING, WE'VE TALKED ABOUT
ASSETS AND ASSETS BEING A
SOURCE OF INCOME FOR YOU.
HAVE YOU EVER HEARD THE
EXPRESSION, I'M ON A FIXED
INCOME?
YOU'RE NOT.
YOU'RE JUST NOT.
THIS IS WHAT I MEAN.
MOST PEOPLE SEE INTEREST RATES,
SEE WHERE BANKS ARE
PAYING ON THE GICS OR WHATEVER
AS BEING THE AMOUNT OF MONEY
THEY CAN REASONABLY EXPECT TO
GET FROM THEIR INVESTMENT.
THAT'S NOT NECESSARILY TRUE.
NOW, MOST PEOPLE ALSO SEE
STOCKS AS BEING VERY RISKY.
WE TALKED ABOUT THIS A COUPLE
TIME IN THIS SERIES, YOU
NEED TO THINK AND YOU NEED TO
THINK ABOUT THINGS MAYBE
DIFFERENTLY THAN PERHAPS OTHER
PEOPLE DO.
WHEN YOU SAY YOU'RE ON A FIXED
INCOME, IT MAYBE TRUE.
I OVER STATING THE CASE.
IF YOU'RE ONLY INCOME IS IN THE
FORM OF PENSION CHECKS
OR OTHERS.
BUT WE'VE ALSO TALKED ABOUT HOW
TO BUILD ASSETS.
THESE CAN TAKE DIFFERENT FORM.
WE'VE TALKED ABOUT BONDS AND
FIXED INCOME.
BUT STOCKS HAVE A UNIQUE
ABILITY TO GENERATE A RISE IN
INCOME.
THE REASON THAT'S SO IMPORTANT
IS INTEREST RATES LOWS.
NOBODY IS OLD ENOUGH TO
REMEMBER BECAUSE THEY NEVER
BEEN THIS LOW BEFORE.
THEY KEEP GOING UP A LITTLE BIT
AND DOWN A LITTLE BIT.
WHEN INTEREST RATES ARE IN THE
LOW SINGLE DIGITS,
THAT'S NOT ENOUGH FOR ANYBODY
TO LIVE ON.
IF YOU LOOK AT MANY STOCKS,
LIKE THE CANADIAN BANKS,
UTILITIES, A LOT OF THEM PAY
DIVIDENDS EVERY QUARTER AND
EVERY QUARTER THERE'S A
POSSIBILITY THOSE DIVIDENDS
INCREASE.
IN FACT, MANY COMPANIES HAVE
INCREASED DIVIDENDS YEAR
AFTER YEAR.
WHAT'S MORE DIVIDENDS YIELDS A
AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT
COMPANIES ARE ABLE TO PAY BACK
TO THEIR INVESTORS.
THAT'S WHAT DIVIDEND IS, THE
AMOUNT OF MONEY THE
COMPANY PAYS BACK TO ITS
INVESTORS OUT OF ITS EARNINGS
HAS
THE ABILITY TO INCREASE.
IF YOU HAVE STOCK THAT YOU HONE
OWN THAT'S PAYING MAYBE
3 OR
5% NOW.
YOU CAN SEE THAT DIVIDEND
INCREASED YEAR AFTER YEAR.
MOST PEOPLE THINK ABOUT STOCKS
OR I WOULDN'T SAY THINK,
MOST PEOPLE FEEL ABOUT STOCKS
AS A WHOLE UP AND DOWN THING.
THINK ABOUT THEM DIFFERENTLY.
THINK ABOUT THEM AS A
MEANS OF GENERATING INCOME AND
A RISING LEVEL OF INCOME TO
COME BACK AND COUNTERACT THESE
UNPRECEDENTED LOW INTEREST
RATE THAT NO ONE EVER SEEN
BEFORE.
STOCKS ARE A RISE IN INCOME.
ANYTHING I SAID STRUCK A CORD
PLEASE FEEL FREE TO LOOK
AT OUR WEBSITE.
OR THE 700CLUB.CA HAS ALL OF
THESE.
HOPE TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

WELCOME BACK.
UP NEXT, A KAYAKER IS PUSHED
OUT INTO THE STORMY SEAS
OF THE PACIFIC OCEAN AND LEFT
TO DRIFT FOR DAYS.
THERE WAS HUGE WIND AND HUGE
SWELLS JUST FOLDING
OVER ME ONE AFTER THE OTHER.
I GOT TO THE POINT WHERE I
REALIZED IF I DON'T GET INTO
THIS BOAT, I'M GOING TO DIE.
IT WAS A TRIP JOHN STOCKTON
WILL NEVER FORGET THAT
STARTED WITH A SIMPLE LONGING
FOR THE SEA.
I WAS AT A PLACE WHERE I
NEEDED SOME REST.
RESTING WAS GOING TO HAVE AN
ADVENTURE.
IN SEARCH OF SOME PEACE AND
QUIET AND ADVENTURE,
JOHN TRAVELED HERE TO THE BIG
ISLAND OF HAWAII.
HE BOUGHT HIMSELF A STATE OF
THE ART KAYAK AND SAT OUT
BY HIMSELF INTO THE VAST
PACIFIC OCEAN.
JOHN'S PLAN TO PADDLE UP THE
WESTERN COASTLINE OF
HAWAII FROM CONA.
THE FIRST THREE DAYS, THE
WEATHER WERE PLEASANT.
MY PRAYER WAS FILL THE DAY
WITH SIGNS OF YOUR LOVE.
I SAW THESE FLYING FISH COME
OUT THE OCEAN LIKE A
MACHINE GUN OUT OF THE WATER.
BIRDS FLYING EVERYWHERE ALL
KIND OF FISH.
THAT IS UNTIL HE CAUGHT
SIGHT OF A STORM
APPROACHING.
AT THIS POINT, JOHN WAS ABOUT
HALF MILE FROM SHORE.
AS I CAME AROUND THE POINT,
I SAW IMMEDIATELY CHANGE
IN THE SURFACE OF THE WATER.
THE STORM JUMP THE NORTHERN
PART OF THE ISLAND AND
HEADED STRAIGHT TOWARDS JOHN.
THE WINDS STARTED GETTING
MORE INTENSE.
A GUST OF WIND JUST CAME AND
CAPSIZED ME.
FLIPPED ME RIGHT OVER.
JOHN. TWO CHOICES, HE COULD
SWIM BACK TO SHORE OR
STAY IN HIS KAYAK AND PADDLE
BACK.
I WAS KIND OF PARALYZE.
I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE RIGHT
MOVE TO MAKE WAS.
IT WAS REALLY BAD.
THIS IS LIKE THE INGREDIENTS
FOR DISASTER RIGHT HERE.
AS I WAS LIKING BACK TOWARDS
THE SHORE, I COULD SEE THE
LIGHT WAS STARTING TO FADE.
I JUST STARTED PRAYING, LORD,
THIS IS GOING TO BE A
LONG NIGHT IF I DON'T GET BACK.
I FELT LIKE I LORD MADE IT
CLEAR, YOUR GOING TO LIVE
AND NOT DIE
THEN, JOHN SAW THE RAINBOW
IN A DISTANCE.
IT WAS A PROMISE FROM GOD HE
NEED TO HOLD ON TO.
SINCE WHERE HE WAS, THE SEA WAS
STILL RAGING ALL AROUND
HIM.
IT WAS A LONG TREACHEROUS NIGHT.
I WAS JUST BEING PUSHED
STRAIGHT OUT TO SEA.
WE'RE TALKING TWO STORY HOUSE
SIZE WAVES, LIKE 20-FOOT
WE HAVES JUST POUNDING ME.
EVERY TIME JOHN GOT THE
BOATRIGHT SIDE UP, A WAVE
WOULD KNOCK HIM OVER AND PILL
THE FILL THE BOAT WITH WATER.
I WAS TRYING TO BE MR.
INDEPENDENT.
IT WAS SO SEVERE I COULDN'T
MAKE ANY PROGRESS.
HOURS LATER, THE STORM
FINALLY SUBSIDED.
FOR THE NEXT 21 HOURS, JOHN
PADDLED BACK TOWARD SHORE.
JOHN WAS FADING FAST.
I STARTED YELLING AT MYSELF.
COME ON, DON'T YOU WANT TO LIVE.
THIS IS YOUR CHANCE, GET IN
THERE.
GRITTED MY TEETH AND I STARTED
ROWING LIKE CRAZY.
LIKE A MADMAN.
THAT DIDN'T LAST.
EXHAUSTED, JOHN DOZED OFF AND
HIS KAYAK DRIFTED FARTHER
AND FARTHER FROM SHORE.
WHEN HE WOKE UP, HE WAS
SUNBURNED AND HELPLESS.
I JUST SAID, LORD, MY ARMS
ARE JUST WET NOODLE AND
SPAGHETTI.
THERE'S NO STRENGTH IN THEM AT
ALL.
THEY ARE SORE AND TIRED.
SINCE JOHN WAS SO FAR OUT AT
SEA, HE FIGURED HE
COULDN'T GET ANY RECEPTION AND
HIS BATTERY WAS LOW.
HE PULLED HIS PHONE AND DIALED
911 AND SPOKE TO AN
EMERGENCY OPERATOR.
STILL THE OPERATOR WAS ABLE TO
PASS ON ENOUGH
INFORMATION TO SET A MASSIVE
SEARCH MISSION INTO MOTION.
WHEN JOHN'S PHONE FINALLY
REGAINED SIGNAL, HE HAD A
MESSAGE WAITING. JOHN CALLED
HIM RIGHT BACK.
I KIND OF KNEW THE TONE OF
HIS VOICE AND JUST HOW
DESPERATE HE WAS AND HE NEEDED
OUR HELP SOON.
WITH A CHALLENGE THIS BIG,
WERE YOU FINDING YOURSELF
PRAYING TO GOD FOR HELP?
THERE'S ONLY SO MUCH I CAN
DO.
I REALLY STARTED PRAYING ABOUT
THAT HE PUTS AT THIS
MOMENT, HE PUTS HE TRUST IN THE
LORD.
I WAS PRAYING FOR PATIENCE FOR
JOHN AND FOR HOPE AND TO
BE STRONG, NOT TO GIVE UP.
MEANWHILE, JOHN ANXIOUSLY
AWAITED HIS RESCUE.
ONE PLANE FLEW OVER HIM 10
TIMES.
I CAME TO THE REALIZATION,
THEY CAN'T SEE ME.
I'M THIS LITTLE SPECK IN THE
OCEAN.
I STARTED TO FEEL THIS ABSOLUTE
DREAD INSIDE OF ME.
NIGHT FELL, JOHN HAD NOW
BEEN STRANDED AT SEA THREE
DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS.
DELUSION SET IN.
I STARTED HAVING THESE WEIRD
ESCAPE VISIONS OR
WHATEVER.
I HAD A IMAGINARY FRIEND ON THE
BOAT, THIS JAPANESE
SAILOR AND I STARTED SAYING
HAND ME THE OAR AND DO YOUR
PART.
STOP IT AND YOU'RE LOSING YOUR
MIND.
I REMEMBER SAYING, WHEN YOU
DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, DO
WHAT YOU DO KNOW AND THEN YOU
DO WHAT TO DO.
WHAT I DID KNOW WHAT TO DO WAS
A BIBLE STUDY.
ONE PSALM STOOD OUT.
IT WAS SAVE ME OH GOD FOR I
HAVE SUNKEN DOWN INTO
THE PIT.
I SAID LORD, I'M IN A PIT AND
YOU WOULD HAVE TO BRING
ME OUT OF IT.
I LOOKED OVER TO MY RIGHT JUST
I FINISHED READING, I
HEARD THE RUMBLE THE ENGINES
AND THERE WAS THIS
MAINSTREAMING UP.
PLANE
SWEEPING UP.
IT WAS NOW DAY FIVE.
IT WAS THE END OF THE DAY WHEN
NATO RADIO OPERATOR
URGES PILOTS TO MAKE ONE LAST
PASS.
HE TOO HAD BEEN ASKING GOD FOR
HELP.
I WAS PRAYING HE WOULD PUT
ME IN THE RIGHT POSITION
TO BE ABLE TO FIND JOHN.
GOD DID.
YOU CAN'T IMAGINE WHO A
SMALL KAYAK LOOK LIKE WITH A
PERSON IN IT.
ALL OF A SUDDEN, HE WENT BY.
RELIEF SWEPT OVER JOHN AS
RESCUERS PULLED HIM FROM
THE WATER.
HE WAS TREATED FOR SEVERE
DEHYDRATION, AND SUN AND WIND
EXPOSURE
LATER, HE FOUND THAT
MYSTERIOUSLY, THE PHONE RECORD
HAD
NO RECORD OF IT.
THEY SAID SORRY SIR, HE
DIDN'T MAKE THE CALL.
THE COAST GUARD MADE IT A
MIRACLE.
LOCAL PAPERS DID THE SAME.
WHEN YOU HAVE GOD ON YOUR
SIDE, ANYTHING IS
POSSIBLE.
THIS IS WHAT GOD HAS DONE.
TOTAL MIRACLE.
[MUSIC]
SINCE THE RESCUE, JOHN HAD
TIME TO PROCESS HIS
BATTLE AT SEA.
HE NOW REALIZES GOD KNEW WHERE
HE WAS EACH STEP OF THE
WAY.
I WENT TO A PLACE TO BEING
TOTALLY INDEPENDENT TO
JUST PURE PRAYER.
THAT TO ME IS WHAT THE LORD WAS
TEACHING ME, THAT'S
WHAT FAITH IS.
THE ABSOLUTE HOPE OF UPON HOPE.
YOU CAN'T SEE ANYTHING WORKING
BUT YOU KNOW THAT GOD IS
GOOD.
YOU KNOW THAT HE IS LOVING.
I KNOW BECAUSE I WAS IN THE
BOAT WHAT NAME I CALLED ON.
I KNOW WHAT NAME I CRIED OUT TO.
I KNOW WHAT NAME DELIVERED ME.
I'LL TELL I SOMETHING, WHEN
YOU GET INTO A SITUATION
WHERE YOU KNOW ANY MOMENT YOUR
LIFE CAN BE TAKEN FROM YOU
AND YOU HAVE TO CRY OUT TO
HEAVEN BECAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY
ONE THAT CAN HEAR YOU.
NOBODY KNEW WHERE HE WAS.
THIS WAS AN INCREDIBLE STORY.
YOU KNOW WHO ELSE KNEW WHAT
THAT WAS LIKE?
DAVID IN THE BIBLE WHEN HE WAS
BEING CHASED BY HIS
ENEMIES.
WHEN HE HAD ENEMIES, THEY WERE
OUT TO KILL YOU.
THEY HAD SWORDS AND THEY WERE
GOING SLIT HIS THROAT.
HE SAID THE CORDS OF DEATH
ENTANGLES ME.
IN MY DISTRESS, I CALL TO THE
LORD.
I CRIED TO MY GOD FROM HELP.
FROM HIS TEMPLE, HE HEARD MY
VOICE.
MY CRY CAME BEFORE HIM.
THAT'S THE KIND OF GOD WE SERVE.
WE SERVE A GOD WHO WILL OUR
PRIZE.
YOU'RE RIGHT.
THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO
JOHN STOCKTON.
IF ' IN THAT POSITION, I THINK
THAT SOME PEOPLE ARE
SAYING, IT'S NOT IF, I AM IN
THAT SITUATION RIGHT NOW.
I NEED SOME HELP AND I NEED IT
RIGHT NOW.
I'M AT THE END OF MY ROP AND
I'M DONE TIEING KNOTS.
I
WOULD LIKE TO INVITE YOU.
I LIKE TO PRAY A PRAYER WITH ME.
THAT'S HOW WE GET IN TOUCH WITH
GOD.
WE LITERALLY PRAY AND THEN GOD
BEGINS TO ANSWER.
WOULD YOU PRAY WITH ME WITH
PRAYER?
THIS IS WHERE I AM.
GOD IS CONCERNED ABOUT YOUR
HEART.
JESUS, I'M CITIZENSHIPPING.
SINKING, I'M A SINNER.
I HAVE DONE THINGS MY OWN WAY.
NOW I ASK YOU, I BELIEVE THAT
YOU ARE THE CHRIST THE
SON OF THE LIVING GOD.
COME INTO MY LIFE.
I ACCEPT YOU AS MY LORD AND
SAVIOR.
LORD MAKE MY WHAT YOU WANT ME
TO BE.
IF YOU PRAYED THAT PRAYER, THE
NUMBER ON THE SCREEN IS
THIS, 1(855)759-0700.
I LIKE YOU TO CALL RIGHT NOW.
I WANT TO GET SOME STUFF INTO
YOUR HANDS AS WELL.
THIS MATERIAL IS SO IMPORTANT.
THIS DVD, IT'S A NEW DAY FOR
YOU NOW YOU HAVE TO HAVE
THE TOOLS AND THE INFORMATION
IN ORDER TO WALK THIS WALK OUT
AND YOU DON'T NEED TO WALK
ALONE.
LAURA LYNN AND I ARE HERE BUT
THERE ARE OPERATORS
STANDING BY RIGHT NOW.
THIS INFORMATION WILL HELP YOU
TO NOW LIVE THAT
VICTORIOUS LIFE.
LOOK AT THIS ONE, ANSWER TO
PRAYER.
THAT'S WHAT GOD PROMISES THAT
HE WILL DO FOR ALL OF US.
WE LOOK TO BEING WITH YOU
ALL AGAIN.
I'M LAURA LYNN TYLER THOMPSO.
I'M BRIAN WARREN.
HAVE A GREAT DAY CANADA.
GOD BLESS.
