"I Think I Wanna Do Something Else" (clip 1) - Pastor Jamal Bryant

if you have your Bibles would you go with me please to Luke chapter three Luke chapter three I want to preach to bishops sap and allow you the opportunity to eavesdrop Luke chapter 3 I want to eliminate just one verse in that verses verse 23 Luke chapter 3 verse 23 once you found it want you to clay I got it if you can't find it say lord help me that's a lot of y'all Luke chapter 3 verse 23 in the New International Version it reads on this wise now Jesus himself was about thirty years old when he began his ministry they actually thought he was the son of Joseph you may be seated Jesus himself was about thirty years old when he began his ministry and they actually thought he was the son of Joseph I want to preach for just a little while tonight using as a subject I think I want to do something else do something else uncle Richard recently I was in Dubai and on my last day there the tour guide asked me did I want to see the most expensive exquisite boutique hotel in the city I said absolutely and within moments we pulled up to a resort where the name sounded familiar the hotel Maddy was called Armani as soon as I hit the lobby I was hit with the heaviest aromatherapy to come in contact with my olfactory bulbs I asked the doorman what flower is that to which he quickly informed me that it wasn't flowers it was Giorgio Armani perfume that they send through the vents immediately my suspicions were confirmed that the property was indeed owned and operated by the famous designer Kenneth I thought I was thinking to myself not realizing I was talking out loud I said I thought in my mind but he came out of my mouth I said I didn't know our money had a hotel one of the employees that was casually walking pay us said mr. Armani is always doing something new under further investigation under further investigation I discovered that as a young man he matriculated at the University of Milan but felt unmotivated in his last year of medical school dropped out of medical school and he enlisted in the Italian army he was assigned the task of working at the military hospital in Verona after leaving the military in 1953 he switched paths and completely lost himself he became a window dresser at a department store and was quickly promoted to be in the cashier for the men's department with a medical degree after 10 years 10 he decided to become a designer the understudy of Nino Cerruti and it wasn't until 9 years later in 1975 that he produced his own label in 2001 he was named the most successful designer in Italian history Marvin his personal net worth as of Friday as a Friday his personal net worth is nine point three billion I shudder to think where would he be if he didn't find a faith to switch [Applause] sometimes God will make you go through something you don't even know what's happening and if you're not careful you'll confuse it for warfare when it's really transition I'm preaching a Marvin but since you're listening in the next six weeks God is gonna confirm for some people in here that before you cross in the twenty twenty you gonna do something different like you have never done in your life some of you don't need this word but for the fifty of you that are preaching to that God has been waking you up in the middle of the night he's been whispering something in your inner ear he's been tugging at you in places where you used to be comfortable and you don't know what's getting ready to happen God wants to know will you trust him when you don't know what the next chapter is [Applause] according to Forbes magazine you can't afford to be afflicted with career inertia you know something has to shift when number one you are chronically worn out something has to happen when you're tired but can't sleep you know that something is afoot when you're exhausted and can't rest you know something is out of order when you're sleeping but no longer dreaming the truth of the matter is we spend more time at work than anywhere else so if you don't like where you work it will start working on you and so you become stressed out in an arena you were never assigned don't understand why you're taking work home tossing and turning up before the alarm clock goes off checking your phone and is not even vibrating looking to see what's on television and nothing suits your appetite looking in the back of the refrigerator and you're not even hungry entertaining company with people you have nothing in common with you're trying to figure out what is happening because my faith seems to be unemployed what is amazing is that people who don't understand the gravity of your assignment become distracted by the trappings of success and think that's what should make you happy and they don't know I would rather give all of that away if I could exchange it for something substantive and something meaningful so you got people jealous of you for stuff you don't even want to have they have no idea I would rather release it over the Union then to be stuck with this affliction that I call my employment it is amazing that you get to a place where you begin to do inventory on your own abilities your capacity and your journey still do not meet you at a place of fulfillment nowhere did God ever promise you would be happy and so Sunday school never equipped us that you can be anointed and depressed they never told us you can have the Holy Ghost and be unhappy y'all not saying anything you they they they they never told you that you can know your vocation but still have a void so you keep trying to tread along and acting as if everything is alright but on the inside you know that there is a disconnect here it is cuz you can pray for other people but you no longer have strength to pray for yourself you can give other people counsel wisdom and advice and they don't know that you write on the ledge yourself trying to talk yourself out of a nervous breakdown try not to go crazy and try not to hurt somebody because they think because you saved you won't check [Applause] [Music] [Applause]
