0:43 Welcome to Fuel for the Soul with John GIFTA. Hey, are you in a place in your life where you're so worried about your future? Wats in store? Maybe you're dealing with something really big, John, This obstacle is so big, this mountain is so huge. I don't know how I'm ever going to make it. Maybe you're having sleepless nights. Maybe you don't have any idea how you're even going to pay your bills this month. Maybe you're in a place where you're saying, John, I'm so desperate. I really need God to make a move.

1:16 I don't know where God is. I don't know what is happening with my life. Well, if that describes you, I want you to stay tuned because I believe that this is going to be a powerful word that will encourage you. This is going to be a powerful word that will help you in your time of need right now in your life as well. I want to tell you something very important. Guys. You know, one of the scriptures that really came into my spirit with regard to this is found in Isaiah forty two, verse two. And I'm reading to you from the n IVY version, and this is what it says where God is speaking, and this is what God is saying, I will go before you and will level the mountains.

1:51 Listen to this carefully. I will go before you and level the mountains. If you look at this is different translations, like the Enlty, it says this is what the Lord says, I will go before you and level the mountains. It's very very clear that it's not just some random worst but it is the Lord who's giving this word. The Lord is saying to you, I will go before you and level the mountains. Now, different translations are talking on the same lines that God is going before you and leveling the mountains.

2:22 The minute I saw this, I was reminded of one of the important things that I really love and I enjoy is to know more about Mount Everest, people climbing Mount Everest. I have done a lot of studies on Mount Everest. It's my desire maybe some day to go to the Everest or something like that, maybe at least the base camp or something. So I've studied a lot of things. I've watched a lot of documentaries, and this is what I want you to understand. When you think about going to Mount Everest. You don't just randomly go to the top, Okay, if you have to understand something here.

2:57 There are some local group of people called the shir Pass, the indigenous group of people in that land in the Himalayan region who are called the shir Pass. These shr Pass are experts in built in them mountaineering skills and the ability and their body in itself can do really well in this high altitude. They're used to it. That's what they're they're born to do, you know. You know what I mean, they're the indigenous people of that area, the shur Pass. You have to understand that all these mountaineers, they are always led by these shur pass.

3:34 Now, for example, when you say Hillary and Tensing when they climb to the top of Mount Everest in nineteen fifty three, you know Hillary was a mountaineer, but Tensing was a sherpa. Okay. These sherpas are the people who have all the idea about climbing, who have all the idea about fixing robes and like. For example, if at that high altitude, if you can only go for a few minutes and you need to catch your breath, these surpass are so good at this that they can go for ten to fifteen minutes and they don't have to catch a breath.

4:06 You know what I mean. That's what I want you to understand. They are accustomed to that environment. So what I want you to understand is even when these surpass are available in the mountains, they go before the mountaineers. They go ahead of the mountaineers. For example, when you're traveling to the top of Mount Everest, they go to the base camp, then they go to Camp one, camp to Camp three, Camp four, then they go to Hillary Step and then South Summit, and eventually they go to the summit. What I want you to understand, if the mountaineers are in camp on.

4:39 The Sherpas are already her Head in Camp two and Camp three, making sure that everything was fine, making sure that the ropes were fixed, the ropes were all in the proper way, or making sure there is no unforeseen danger that they can foresee and say, you know there's some danger, her head. What I want you to understand is the Sherpass go before the mountaineers to make sure that everything is fine. And isn't that a parallel to what the Bible is saying. The Bible is saying that God goes before you and level the mountains.

5:14 What I want you to understand is the same way the Sherpass go before the mountaineers to ensure that the mountain is fine, the pathway is proper, all the ropes are intact, to make sure there's no danger. I want you to know that God is going before you. He is going before you to level the mountains in front of you. He is going before you to make your crooked paths straight. Is going before you to make sure the right people are in and the wrong people are out. Is going before you to bring the right provision your way.

5:45 Is going before you to make sure that there's no hidden agenda to keep you from fulfilling what God has for you today. So I want you to be recessured. You're not just going and climbing your life on your own. You're not climbing your mountain of life on your own. God is going before you. God is your sherper God is the one saying listen. You are worried about it. You're worried about what's in store for you in Camp two. I're already there in Camp two. I'm already there setting the ropes in order.

6:14 I'm already there to ensure that there's nothing that can take your life. That's the way I want you to look at your life. You're not just making through life on your own. God is already there. You're wondering about your tomorrow. He's already there. You're wondering about your life one year from now. He's already there. You're wondering what you're going to do after five years. He's already there. We're wondering how you're going to make it to the end of your life. He's already there. What I want you to know is, no matter what your life is in going in the direction that it's going.

6:46 God is already there and he's taking care of every foukeet path. Now you may be in your life today, you're saying, John, what about the challenges I'm facing today? Can I tell you something? You're facing the challenges today, But even before the foundations of the world, God is already there for today, making sure that he would meet your needs according to his riches in glory. Even before you landed on planet third, he already set the plan to make sure at the right time, the right doors will open, the right people will step in, the right connections will come, the right provisions will drain over you, the right things will come in so that you will step in to the fullness of your destiny.

7:25 So what may be a surprise to you? What may be like something that you didn't expect. You're like, oh my gosh, this is a challenge I didn't see coming. Well, your sherpur God has already been there. He's already seen it. He already took in account all of that, and he has set your life in order. He has set the path for your life. And he is saying, don't worry, I'm gone before you, and I'm making sure that all the mountains are leveled as well.
