2 King 3:8-18
Ill focus on the 2 Kings 3:16-18
"and he said, "This is what the Lord says: This dry valley will be filled with pools of water! You will see neither wind nor rain, says the Lord, but this valley will be filled with water. You will have plenty for yourselves and your cattle and other animals. But this is only a simple thing for the Lord, for he will make you victorious over the army of Moab!"
T.D. Jakes sermon
Build for Expansion

• Focus on King Problems
• Just because you are going through a dry place doesn't mean you can't get through.
• Many get blessed by being connected to someone that is blessed. Who are you connected too?
• Your thinking is the expansion of your training. We were not trained to expand; we praise and shout for expansion, and not do.
• I am King thinking. I don't let nothing or no one's opinions control my decisions not based on my circumstances.
• God will put you in a group that will stretch you.
• What God is getting ready to poor on me / on us is bigger than my/your expansion.
• God's not watching your mouth He is watching your shovel. Digging ditches in your valley. #SweatEquity
• If you dig now you will win later.
• God is watching yours shovel to see if you are ready.
• You cannot trust you feeling to direct your faith

Chapter 3: Get' Chya Mind Right
• Yvonne had an experience getting denied 3 times by and talent agent and her thoughts at first were. Rd. Pg.41
• Pg. 41 "We actually have a real-life adversary called the devil, who stays on his grind, using lies to steal, kill, and destroy our dreams, joy, and peace."
• pg. 43 "What unspoken fears haven't you dared utter? Are there promises God keeps speaking to you that you can't hear over the banging of doubt? How many times will He have to tell you to be strong and courageous before it seeps into your psyche that you can do hard things too?
• Pg. 45 This is how you renew your mind…"You exchange losing with thoughts of winning. You trade in barely enough with believing for more. You swap out hopelessness for a blessed assurance."
Chapter 4: I Said it, I meant it, im here to represent it!
• First bar in this chapter is in the first sentence pg. 49 "It's not only important to know who you are, but equally is important to know whose you are.
• Do you know whose you are? I am consistent, driven and effective.
• Rd. Pg. 50 " Knowing whose we re in our relationship with God should empower us with an unshakeable confidence that settles every matter.
• Just like Yvonne I want to get to a level where I can bless someone out of the abundance of my overflow.
Challenge of the week
Make a mantra to get your mind right.
Pg. 45 Yvonne Mantra
"I'm dangerous to the enemy's camp. If I wasn't, he wouldn't be this pressed to see me fall. There's something great in my life that makes him tumble, that's why he's attacking me from every angle. But I've been genetically predisposed to foil all his plans, so I can't give up so easily!"
What Would Crew Do?! (ask advice)
I know this is not a real estate podcast, but you said we can ask anything. I am a new agent, about 8 months in the business how are you staying motivated during this market?
Quote of the week:
pg. 56 "Don't worry that your wins won't occur the way others might imagine. They'll happen the way God intended. So be fully satisfied with the works for you.
