You come back in three months and i'm going to say let's wait

And i'm going to say let's wait another three months because it
00:25:27.359 --> 00:25:27.993
Another three months because it takes a year or two to see

And abraham set out to conquer mount kilimanjaro.
00:26:29.187 --> 00:26:33.325
Mount kilimanjaro. i think the message was not by
00:26:33.458 --> 00:26:34.192
I think the message was not by might nor by power but by my
00:26:34.326 --> 00:26:37.796
Might nor by power but by my spirit, says the lord of hosts.
00:26:37.930 --> 00:26:38.597
Spirit, says the lord of hosts. and that's a scripture that we

Abraham would be anything normal because this is not how
00:28:02.247 --> 00:28:04.750
Normal because this is not how god made abraham and he went

God made abraham and he went and did something that
00:28:05.650 --> 00:28:08.653

Move and have our being be like abraham abraham because he was

Abraham abraham because he was imitating he didn't consider
00:28:55.834 --> 00:28:59.104
Imitating he didn't consider the deadness of his own.
00:28:59.237 --> 00:29:02.741
The deadness of his own. that's what the bible says
00:29:02.874 --> 00:29:03.408
That's what the bible says about abraham.
00:29:03.542 --> 00:29:03.875
About abraham. so abraham here he is.
00:29:04.009 --> 00:29:07.179
So abraham here he is. he can't move his legs.
00:29:07.312 --> 00:29:09.748
He can't move his legs. he doesn't consider the
00:29:09.881 --> 00:29:10.415
He doesn't consider the deadness of his own body but he
00:29:10.549 --> 00:29:13.752
Deadness of his own body but he was fully persuaded that he
00:29:13.885 --> 00:29:14.453
Was fully persuaded that he would promise was able and i
00:29:14.586 --> 00:29:18.156
Would promise was able and i love the wisdom of that

Grandfather saying. well, there's $200 at stake if

To do exceedingly abundantly above all we could ever ask or

Above all we could ever ask or think.
00:29:37.742 --> 00:29:37.909

Let's prepare and then that preparation ask yourself this
00:29:45.117 --> 00:29:45.717
Preparation ask yourself this this question how big is
00:29:45.851 --> 00:29:56.094
This question how big is possible?
00:29:56.228 --> 00:29:56.895
Possible? good god.

All things are possible. so so how big is that.
00:29:58.029 --> 00:29:58.497
So so how big is that. even though the doctors say you
00:29:58.630 --> 00:29:59.231
Even though the doctors say you might not never again well how
00:29:59.364 --> 00:30:00.165
Might not never again well how big is possible if doctors say
00:30:00.298 --> 00:30:04.236
Big is possible if doctors say we've given up we caught your

We have some email questions going.
00:49:31.583 --> 00:49:31.750
Going. >> this first one comes from
00:49:31.884 --> 00:49:32.451
>> this first one comes from karen who says the church i
00:49:32.584 --> 00:49:33.152
Karen who says the church i attend has sharing communion
00:49:33.285 --> 00:49:35.254
Attend has sharing communion any longer?
00:49:35.387 --> 00:49:35.654
Any longer? i'm now considering attending
00:49:35.788 --> 00:49:36.355
I'm now considering attending another.
00:49:36.488 --> 00:49:38.590
Another. >> our church is starting to do
00:49:38.724 --> 00:49:39.425
>> our church is starting to do this now.
00:49:39.558 --> 00:49:39.792
This now. i wonder why.
00:49:39.925 --> 00:49:40.259
I wonder why. our communion has been a
00:49:42.094 --> 00:49:42.895
Our communion has been a centerpiece of the christian
00:49:43.028 --> 00:49:43.595
Centerpiece of the christian church since the last supper.
00:49:43.729 --> 00:49:46.498
Church since the last supper. you look at the catacombs and
00:49:46.632 --> 00:49:49.435
You look at the catacombs and hear the christians under
00:49:49.568 --> 00:49:50.068
Hear the christians under persecution they're gathering
00:49:50.202 --> 00:49:53.539
Persecution they're gathering together for one purpose and
00:49:53.672 --> 00:49:56.275
Together for one purpose and that is to share communion.
00:49:56.408 --> 00:49:56.975
That is to share communion. that's it was such a driving
00:49:57.109 --> 00:50:00.746
That's it was such a driving force for them.
00:50:00.879 --> 00:50:01.213
Force for them. >> and here's the here's what
00:50:01.346 --> 00:50:05.050
>> and here's the here's what jesus said about us.
00:50:05.184 --> 00:50:05.617
Jesus said about us. chapter 22 he took bread, gave
00:50:07.119 --> 00:50:07.953
Chapter 22 he took bread, gave thanks, broke it gave it to
00:50:08.086 --> 00:50:10.689
Thanks, broke it gave it to them saying this is my body
00:50:10.823 --> 00:50:11.423
Them saying this is my body which is given for you do this
00:50:11.557 --> 00:50:14.526
Which is given for you do this in remembrance of me the the
00:50:14.660 --> 00:50:18.797
In remembrance of me the the feast of the lord the communion
00:50:18.931 --> 00:50:22.167
Feast of the lord the communion the lord is to remember him and
00:50:22.301 --> 00:50:23.235
The lord is to remember him and to remember sacrifice.
00:50:23.368 --> 00:50:26.472
To remember sacrifice. i can't imagine a church giving
00:50:26.605 --> 00:50:27.339
I can't imagine a church giving it up.
00:50:27.473 --> 00:50:30.375
It up. you said it's essential to
00:50:30.509 --> 00:50:31.210
You said it's essential to worship so if you're
00:50:31.343 --> 00:50:33.812
Worship so if you're considering going to another
00:50:33.946 --> 00:50:34.513
Considering going to another one because your church has
00:50:34.646 --> 00:50:37.683
One because your church has stopped communion i would say
00:50:37.816 --> 00:50:38.383
Stopped communion i would say amen.
00:50:38.517 --> 00:50:38.684
Amen. >> amen.
00:50:38.817 --> 00:50:39.017
>> amen. this is shonda who says i know
00:50:41.420 --> 00:50:42.321
This is shonda who says i know god has always been with me
00:50:42.454 --> 00:50:43.055
God has always been with me through ups and downs seems as
00:50:43.188 --> 00:50:45.591
Through ups and downs seems as if i'm always waiting on my
00:50:45.724 --> 00:50:46.291
If i'm always waiting on my miracles while people around me
00:50:46.425 --> 00:50:48.594
Miracles while people around me are getting theirs.
00:50:48.727 --> 00:50:49.127
Are getting theirs. why do nonbelievers seem to get
00:50:49.261 --> 00:50:52.698
Why do nonbelievers seem to get ahead first?
00:50:52.831 --> 00:50:53.131
Ahead first? >> shonda i think you might be
00:50:53.265 --> 00:50:53.866
>> shonda i think you might be being tested as to where it's
00:50:53.999 --> 00:50:56.869
Being tested as to where it's really your love if you're
00:50:57.002 --> 00:50:57.603
Really your love if you're jealous what other people are
00:50:57.736 --> 00:50:59.972
Jealous what other people are getting.
00:51:00.105 --> 00:51:00.305
Getting. don't don't be that way don't
00:51:00.439 --> 00:51:03.642
Don't don't be that way don't don't be like the the the
00:51:03.775 --> 00:51:07.212
Don't be like the the the brother of the prodigal who
00:51:07.346 --> 00:51:08.146
Brother of the prodigal who resented and resented the face
00:51:08.280 --> 00:51:11.316
Resented and resented the face of their big being given here's
00:51:11.450 --> 00:51:12.084
Of their big being given here's what jesus about serving him
00:51:12.217 --> 00:51:15.020
What jesus about serving him and it's in luke chapter 17
00:51:15.153 --> 00:51:17.689
And it's in luke chapter 17 which of you having a servant
00:51:17.823 --> 00:51:18.524
Which of you having a servant plowing or tending sheep will
00:51:18.657 --> 00:51:22.127
Plowing or tending sheep will say to him when he has come in
00:51:22.261 --> 00:51:22.961
Say to him when he has come in from the field come at once and
00:51:23.095 --> 00:51:25.964
From the field come at once and sit down to eat?
00:51:26.098 --> 00:51:26.498
Sit down to eat? but will he not rather say to
00:51:26.632 --> 00:51:29.868
But will he not rather say to him prepare something for my
00:51:30.002 --> 00:51:30.569
Him prepare something for my supper and gird yourself serve
00:51:30.702 --> 00:51:33.772

And afterwards you will eat and drink.
00:51:38.243 --> 00:51:38.410
Drink. >> does he think that that's
00:51:38.544 --> 00:51:41.480
>> does he think that that's servant because he did the
00:51:41.613 --> 00:51:42.147
Servant because he did the things that were commanded him?
00:51:42.281 --> 00:51:42.915
Things that were commanded him? well think not so likewise you
00:51:43.048 --> 00:51:46.084
Well think not so likewise you when you have done all those
00:51:46.218 --> 00:51:49.755
When you have done all those things which you're commanded
00:51:49.888 --> 00:51:50.455
Things which you're commanded say we are profitable servants
00:51:50.589 --> 00:51:53.992
Say we are profitable servants we have done what was our duty
00:51:54.126 --> 00:51:58.030
We have done what was our duty to do.

To do. when you get to the point where
