0:00.0 | Hi, this is Victoria. Thank you so much for downloading this podcast. I believe God has amazing |
0:06.0 | things in your future. I hope you enjoy this message. |
0:21.2 | You know, we all want God to do great things in our life. I think the cry of our heart is God, |
0:27.0 | do something in me and through me. Let 2017 be a year that you really bring forth the dreams |
0:35.6 | and desires in my heart. But you know what's interesting about God's promises is they always come |
0:42.4 | with a condition. Usually we have to do something and then God will do something. It comes with a |
0:49.8 | condition, a stipulation. You know, I find it very interesting because if God can get us to move, |
0:57.5 | then He can move. It's almost as if His condition prepares our heart. It postures us to receive what He |
1:05.7 | has. You see, if we just wish all day, if we're just fishing in the Wishing Pond, we're not doing |
1:13.3 | anything. God says, I am a partner with you. We are joint heirs in Jesus Christ. He wants us to be |

1:45.7 | you the desires of your heart. When you delight yourself in God, He will shape in you His desires so |
1:56.0 | that He can bring the best out of you. God wants to shape in you His desires. We all want our desires |
2:05.7 | to come to pass. Oh, we love to hear God's promises. We want God's promises. But what are we |
2:12.5 | delighting in? What are we pursuing? What are we given our time to? You see, the scripture says that |
2:19.7 | when we delight in the Lord, which means when we find joy and happiness and pleasure in God, |
2:27.3 | it will shape those desires for God. You see, sometimes we have the wrong desires and we're |
2:35.3 | struggling trying to make those things happen. I think sometimes we get it backwards. We have a |
2:41.5 | desire and we forget to find out what we delight in. We forget what gives us fulfillment. We forget |
2:49.3 | to pursue those things that give us joy, peace and strength and allow those things to shape us, |
