take a break. This is Fuel for the Soul with John Gifta. We're

discussions and interviews. You'll be inspired to live the life that you were created
for. Your host is a top ranking podcaster, best selling author, world
record holder, aerospace engineer, life coach, evangelist, and founder of John
Gifta International. Welcome to Fuel for the Soul with John Gifta. Sometimes in
our everyday life and we look at ourselves, sweeten to write ourselves off,
and we think that, what, there's nothing great about me, and it's
just me for a little me. You know, nothing great. I'm not
influential world right out the person, or I'm not making a great impact or
anything of that sort. I'm just a normal me. You know, we
tend to look at ourselves and sometimes tend to discount or you know, like
think that what nothing great can come out of me? You know, I'm
just just the same old normal me. But what I wanted to understand is
you have no idea what God can cause you to be like in the sight
of people. Sometimes we tend to look at our enemies, we look at
other people and we think, like, what when they look at me,
I think they're just thinking that I'm just a stupid guy. I have nothing
great to offer. It's just me, normal me. But what I wanted
to understand is you have no idea what God is working behind the scene,
what God is causing the other people to think about you, or causing other
people to hear about you, causing other people to know about you, or
you have no idea how those people are seeing you. What I mean,
I want to start up by sharing passage or scripture with you, and I
want to take this forward kids. Found in Second Kings chapter seven, there's
a moment when you know there are just four lepers or are in the outskirts
of the city. They're written off, and lepers of those times were not
reated right. They were like outcasts, and they were like the untouchables,
and they were out on the outskirts of the city, and the city was
in a big famine, you know, and it was in a very terrible
shape. And then just the thing. They talk to each other, and
then they say, you know, if you stay here, we're gonna die.
If you go into the city, if you're gonna die, why don't
we just take a chance and move towards the enemy's camp and see what's happening.
If they let us live, we will live. Otherwise we will die.
At least we know that we've taken a chance. So this is the
decision they make, and they move towards their enemies place. And what I
wanted to understand is the scripture says in verse five and so at twilight they
set out for the camp of the Armenians. But when they came to the
edge of the camp, no one was there. For the Lord had caused
the Armenian army to hear the clatter of speeding chariots and the galloping of horses,
and the sounds of great army approaching. The Lord caused the enemy to
hear something that they didn't have. What I mean, you know, they
were just four normal lepers, but the Lord caused the enemy to hear as
if a mighty army was coming. What I want you guys to understand is
today you're underestimating yourself. Today You're just looking at the normal you. You're
just looking at the fact that what you have, all these limitations, these
restrictions, nothing great about you. You're just the normal you. You don't
have what it takes. You don't have anything big, you don't have any
big achievements, you don't have anything in your plate, you don't have anything
big to offer. And you're saying, John, it is just me,
the normal me. But what I wanted on the stand is you have no
idea what the Lord is going to cause your enemy or other people to hear
about you, because you have a supernatural benefit that the world doesn't help.
You have a supernatural favor that other people do not have. You have the
almighty God on your side. Do you have all of Heaven backing you up?
You have the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords taking a stand
for you, which means that you may think that you're just the normal you,
but the other people may hear as a mighty army. You may think
of yourself and say, I'm just like a grasshopper. You know, That's
how the children of hsitors saw themselves. They thought of themselves as grasshoppers in
the sight of their enemies. But what the scripture talks about how the enemies
were actually afraid of the Israelites. They were afraid because they heard what the
Lord had been working in the favor of the children of Israel. You see,
you have no idea what other people are hearing about you. You have
no idea what other people have perceived about you. You may look at the
normal you, You may look at yourself in the mirror and think nothing great,
nothing so significant about you, But you have no idea of what other
people have heard about you. You have no idea what other people are thinking
about you. You have no idea how they're actually scared of you, and
they see the favor of God upon you, they're seeing the hand of God
upon you. You have no idea how they see you today. I pray
if you're in a place where you're given up, or you've just been thinking
or looking at yourself in a negative way, I pray that today will be
a wake up call for you, that you will understand that you have an
advantage, that you have supernatural power, supernatural favor, supernatural anointing, supernatural
ability where people are going to see her and perceive about you ways that you
don't even have any idea about in the natural. You may be just ordinary,
but you and I are not natural. We have the supernatural God living
in us, helping us live a supernatural life. And then, you know,
I just want to close with this example from my life. You know,
so many times, you know, a lot of people put me down
because of the way I look. People have, you know, written me
off. People have actually said things like, you know, when you came
to speak, I was thinking, you know, what is this guy going
to speak, you know, and then the Lord convicted me of how he's
speaking. And then they literally said these kinds of things, you know,
coming to me and say. You know, sometimes people may write you off,
and sometimes people may just saying something negative and you may be thinking like
that about you, like, you know, okay, it's just me,
normal me. What will other people think? They will not thinking think great.
But sometimes you know, when the Lord works through you. You know,
I've heard testimonies from people say, you know, the way they see
me is not the way I see myself. Sometimes, you know, they
see the hand of God upon my life. They see me in a way
that I'm not putting myself in a high perdical, but they see that honor
and the glory, you know, and I think you know that's the way
we need to pray that instead of looking down on ourselves, well, let
us be people who see that, you know, we have the king of
kings and the load of floats on our side, and so that we see
us have the right way, so that we walk with the confidence and the
boldness to fulfill the purpose that God has for us. I mean, God,
bless you. You've been listening to Fuel for the Soul with John Gifta.

message of condemnation. This is a message of hope. That is a God
who loves you so much he sent his only son, Jesus Christ to come
down and pay a heavy price by sharing every drop of his blood on the
cross. Thank you for dying for my sins. When you believe in Him,
you have free gift or salvation for you that it shows us that we
will go to heaven when we die instead of suffering in hell forever. I
just encourage you today to make the simple step of faith and say, Jesus,
I thank you for what you did on the cross. Thank you for
giving me this gift of eternal life.
