  • 00:00:00.633 --> 00:00:00.325
  • ♪♪♪
  • 00:00:00.793 --> 00:00:01.427
  • Allen jackson: god is moving in the earth in the most remarkable
  • 00:00:05.664 --> 00:00:08.267
  • Ways, it truly is extraordinary what we see god doing.
  • 00:00:08.267 --> 00:00:11.837
  • We have people coming to our campus in middle tennessee from
  • 00:00:11.837 --> 00:00:14.440
  • All over the nation, from nations of the world, we're
  • 00:00:14.440 --> 00:00:17.076
  • Seeing more people baptized, more people engaging
  • 00:00:17.076 --> 00:00:19.645
  • In ministry.
  • 00:00:19.645 --> 00:00:20.979
  • It's truly a remarkable time to see god raising up voices
  • 00:00:20.979 --> 00:00:23.582
  • Of truth.
  • 00:00:23.582 --> 00:00:24.950
  • The one thing we hear consistently that is valued from
  • 00:00:24.950 --> 00:00:27.486
  • The ministry is our willingness to speak the truth into the
  • 00:00:27.486 --> 00:00:31.123
  • Current set of circumstances, and people often ask, "is there
  • 00:00:31.123 --> 00:00:34.359
  • Anything we can do to help?"
  • 00:00:34.359 --> 00:00:35.727
  • And in reality, there is, i wanna invite you to consider
  • 00:00:35.727 --> 00:00:38.130
  • Becoming a monthly ministry partner.
  • 00:00:38.130 --> 00:00:40.799
  • For your gift of $25 a month, you enable us to imagine a
  • 00:00:40.799 --> 00:00:45.437
  • Future that expands the platforms of the ministry.
  • 00:00:45.437 --> 00:00:48.373
  • That's our baseline for how we plan and what we look
  • 00:00:48.373 --> 00:00:50.476
  • Forward to.
  • 00:00:50.476 --> 00:00:51.844
  • If you haven't yet taken that step, please prayerfully
  • 00:00:51.844 --> 00:00:54.279
  • Consider doing so.
  • 00:00:54.279 --> 00:00:55.647
  • We'll share some extra content with you and some unique
  • 00:00:55.647 --> 00:00:57.716
  • Opportunities with you, and together we'll take a message of
  • 00:00:57.716 --> 00:01:01.220
  • Truth to this generation.
  • 00:01:01.220 --> 00:01:02.855
  • God is moving and we wanna move with him.
  • 00:01:02.855 --> 00:01:10.896
  • Allen: you see, the reason that in the book of corinthians, it
  • 00:01:15.100 --> 00:01:18.170
  • Tells us that a messiah who was crucified is a stumbling block
  • 00:01:18.170 --> 00:01:21.340
  • For the jews because they were looking for a messiah who was a
  • 00:01:21.340 --> 00:01:25.444
  • Political leader.
  • 00:01:25.444 --> 00:01:28.013
  • You understand that?
  • 00:01:28.013 --> 00:01:30.282
  • They were looking for a messianic figure who would be a
  • 00:01:30.282 --> 00:01:33.986
  • Political leader, a military leader, king david, somebody
  • 00:01:33.986 --> 00:01:36.655
  • That could defeat goliath, that could defeat the romans.
  • 00:01:36.655 --> 00:01:40.659
  • And to tell them that jesus of nazareth was the messiah and he
  • 00:01:40.659 --> 00:01:43.829
  • Died on a roman cross, that's a stumbling block, because it
  • 00:01:43.829 --> 00:01:49.067
  • Meant that when the messiah came, he's not going to be a
  • 00:01:49.067 --> 00:01:51.870
  • Political deliverer in that moment.
  • 00:01:51.870 --> 00:01:55.207
  • He could have been.
  • 00:01:55.207 --> 00:01:57.276
  • If the people had embraced him, i believe it would have brought
  • 00:01:57.276 --> 00:01:59.645
  • Freedom to the nation, but that's a different message.
  • 00:01:59.645 --> 00:02:04.049
  • So isaiah is describing the messiah, "he was--he took up our
  • 00:02:04.049 --> 00:02:08.020
  • Infirmities and he carried our sorrows, but we considered him
  • 00:02:08.020 --> 00:02:10.722
  • Stricken by god, smitten by him and afflicted.
  • 00:02:10.722 --> 00:02:13.892
  • But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed
  • 00:02:13.892 --> 00:02:17.529
  • For our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace
  • 00:02:17.529 --> 00:02:20.766
  • Was upon him, and by his wounds we are," what?
  • 00:02:20.766 --> 00:02:25.237
  • "healed."
  • 00:02:25.237 --> 00:02:26.572
  • I've told you many times--and it's not original with me, i
  • 00:02:26.572 --> 00:02:28.740
  • Learned it as a young man and a boy--that on the cross, there
  • 00:02:28.740 --> 00:02:32.511
  • Was a divinely ordered exchange that took place whereby the
  • 00:02:32.511 --> 00:02:36.481
  • Sinless, obedient, perfect son of god took upon himself all of
  • 00:02:36.481 --> 00:02:40.852
  • The punishment that was due by divine justice, my sin and my
  • 00:02:40.852 --> 00:02:45.157
  • Ungodliness, that in turn, i might receive all of the
  • 00:02:45.157 --> 00:02:48.927
  • Blessings that were due his perfect obedience.
  • 00:02:48.927 --> 00:02:51.530
  • It's the divine exchange of the cross, it's what enables you and
  • 00:02:51.530 --> 00:02:55.601
  • I through faith in jesus to have standing in the kingdom of god,
  • 00:02:55.601 --> 00:03:00.005
  • To be righteous and justified.
  • 00:03:00.005 --> 00:03:02.841
  • It's amazing.
  • 00:03:02.841 --> 00:03:04.443
  • Well, if you look at the language of isaiah, remember,
  • 00:03:04.443 --> 00:03:06.345
  • Now this is hundreds of years before jesus's birth, he said,
  • 00:03:06.345 --> 00:03:09.982
  • "he was pierced for our transgressions."
  • 00:03:09.982 --> 00:03:12.951
  • Please note the pronouns: he was pierced because of my
  • 00:03:12.951 --> 00:03:16.455
  • Transgression, he was crushed because of my iniquity; and the
  • 00:03:16.455 --> 00:03:21.560
  • Punishment that brought me peace was upon him, and by his wounds
  • 00:03:21.560 --> 00:03:27.633
  • I am healed.
  • 00:03:27.633 --> 00:03:29.868
  • So the same sacrifice that makes provision for the forgiveness of
  • 00:03:29.868 --> 00:03:32.671
  • My sin, my justification in the sight of god, makes provision
  • 00:03:32.671 --> 00:03:37.109
  • For wholeness in my person, body, soul, and spirit.
  • 00:03:37.109 --> 00:03:41.113
  • The bible says god's close to the brokenhearted, there's a lot
  • 00:03:41.113 --> 00:03:43.415
  • Of wounds other than just physical wounds.
  • 00:03:43.415 --> 00:03:46.585
  • Says he'll never leave us or forsake us, we don't have to
  • 00:03:46.585 --> 00:03:48.654
  • Suffer loneliness.
  • 00:03:48.654 --> 00:03:50.656
  • That he was rejected so that we could be accepted, we don't have
  • 00:03:50.656 --> 00:03:54.026
  • To lead lives that are bent over by rejection.
  • 00:03:54.026 --> 00:03:57.162
  • Well, we all face rejection, broken marriages, family systems
  • 00:03:57.162 --> 00:04:01.199
  • That spool into destructive places, business, all sorts of
  • 00:04:01.199 --> 00:04:05.804
  • Places and ways that rejection comes to us, you don't have to
  • 00:04:05.804 --> 00:04:09.174
  • Be conscious of it for it to impact you, but if we understand
  • 00:04:09.174 --> 00:04:12.978
  • That jesus was rejected so that we could be accepted.
  • 00:04:12.978 --> 00:04:15.881
  • And if the creator of heaven and earth, if the name that's above
  • 00:04:15.881 --> 00:04:19.685
  • Every name, before which every knee will bow, if he has said
  • 00:04:19.685 --> 00:04:24.056
  • You're accepted, you'll be okay.
  • 00:04:24.056 --> 00:04:30.629
  • But it comes back to wanting to be satisfied by the things
  • 00:04:30.629 --> 00:04:33.065
  • Of god.
  • 00:04:33.065 --> 00:04:34.599
  • You see, if the longing of our heart is to know that we're in
  • 00:04:34.599 --> 00:04:38.904
  • Relationship with god, then i will allow other relationships
  • 00:04:38.904 --> 00:04:43.308
  • To be diminished that that relationship can grow.
  • 00:04:43.308 --> 00:04:47.312
  • Some of us want the approval of people who are ungodly, and
  • 00:04:47.312 --> 00:04:50.482
  • We're willing to diminish our godliness, thinking we can gain
  • 00:04:50.482 --> 00:04:53.085
  • Something by the approval of the ungodly.
  • 00:04:53.085 --> 00:04:55.187
  • Don't make that bargain. don't make that bargain.
  • 00:04:55.187 --> 00:05:00.459
  • Don't call it evangelism.
  • 00:05:00.459 --> 00:05:03.562
  • You can show people kindness, you can encourage them, you can
  • 00:05:03.562 --> 00:05:06.031
  • Show them love, but don't diminish, don't deny your faith
  • 00:05:06.031 --> 00:05:10.435
  • Thinking there's something to be gained if you will compromise
  • 00:05:10.435 --> 00:05:12.804
  • With ungodliness.
  • 00:05:12.804 --> 00:05:16.508
  • The greatest honor of our lives is being accepted by god.
  • 00:05:16.508 --> 00:05:20.612
  • In matthew 8, the gospel writer uses an event in jesus's life to
  • 00:05:20.612 --> 00:05:26.418
  • Illustrate what we just read in isaiah 53.
  • 00:05:26.418 --> 00:05:28.754
  • It says, "when evening came, many who were demon-possessed
  • 00:05:28.754 --> 00:05:31.723
  • Were brought to jesus, and he drove out the spirits with a
  • 00:05:31.723 --> 00:05:34.459
  • Word and he healed all the sick.
  • 00:05:34.459 --> 00:05:37.262
  • This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet
  • 00:05:37.262 --> 00:05:39.464
  • Isaiah: 'he took up our infirmities and carried
  • 00:05:39.464 --> 00:05:43.368
  • Our diseases.'"
  • 00:05:43.368 --> 00:05:45.971
  • And i still remember a conversation i had when i was in
  • 00:05:45.971 --> 00:05:48.473
  • College doing undergraduate work.
  • 00:05:48.473 --> 00:05:49.808
  • I was at oral roberts university, it's a
  • 00:05:49.808 --> 00:05:51.376
  • Christian school.
  • 00:05:51.376 --> 00:05:53.512
  • Late night conversations in dorm rooms can spin to crazy places.
  • 00:05:53.512 --> 00:05:58.417
  • And i don't remember how we got there one night, but we were
  • 00:05:58.417 --> 00:06:00.318
  • Talking about whether or not god healed at oral roberts
  • 00:06:00.318 --> 00:06:02.421
  • University, can you believe that?
  • 00:06:02.421 --> 00:06:03.755
  • I mean, the man would pray for a fence post if it couldn't get
  • 00:06:03.755 --> 00:06:06.992
  • Out of the way.
  • 00:06:06.992 --> 00:06:09.227
  • And the consensus in the group i was with that night was that
  • 00:06:09.227 --> 00:06:13.398
  • Healing was no longer a part of the--what god was doing in
  • 00:06:13.398 --> 00:06:16.468
  • The earth.
  • 00:06:16.468 --> 00:06:18.403
  • And college students have a great confidence in what
  • 00:06:18.403 --> 00:06:21.773
  • We know.
  • 00:06:21.773 --> 00:06:24.543
  • You know, it's most of that still in the ideas category
  • 00:06:24.543 --> 00:06:26.745
  • Because we haven't wrapped enough experience around it, so
  • 00:06:26.745 --> 00:06:29.214
  • To make up for the lack of experience, we use volume.
  • 00:06:29.214 --> 00:06:35.353
  • And because my mom had been healed, i was kind of
  • 00:06:35.353 --> 00:06:37.756
  • An outlier in the conversation.
  • 00:06:37.756 --> 00:06:39.090
  • And i believe god heals and i quoted them a passage from
  • 00:06:39.090 --> 00:06:42.294
  • Isaiah 53, and one of my friends in the discussion said, "that's
  • 00:06:42.294 --> 00:06:46.798
  • Not physical, that's just spiritual," and i wasn't
  • 00:06:46.798 --> 00:06:52.003
  • Versed--well versed enough in my bible at the time to know about
  • 00:06:52.003 --> 00:06:55.474
  • Matthew 8, i wish i had been, 'cause in matthew, jesus
  • 00:06:55.474 --> 00:07:01.580
  • Said--when they brought to jesus those that were demonized and
  • 00:07:01.580 --> 00:07:06.318
  • Those that were sick, and he cast out the spirits and he
  • 00:07:06.318 --> 00:07:09.354
  • Healed the sick to fulfill what isaiah had said.
  • 00:07:09.354 --> 00:07:13.658
  • So it wasn't some spiritual revelation isaiah was giving, he
  • 00:07:13.658 --> 00:07:16.661
  • Was giving us the character of the messiah, and jesus said he
  • 00:07:16.661 --> 00:07:20.599
  • Came--in hebrews, the opening verses of hebrews--he came to
  • 00:07:20.599 --> 00:07:23.969
  • Let us see the character of god the father.
  • 00:07:23.969 --> 00:07:27.706
  • Jesus gave us a revelation of the character of god the father.
  • 00:07:27.706 --> 00:07:32.043
  • So what jesus was doing in his ministry wasn't a display for
  • 00:07:32.043 --> 00:07:36.381
  • The 1st century, never to be lived out amongst the people of
  • 00:07:36.381 --> 00:07:39.451
  • God again, he was showing us the character of god.
  • 00:07:39.451 --> 00:07:45.156
  • Doesn't deliver us from the vagaries of aging, doesn't--we
  • 00:07:45.156 --> 00:07:49.661
  • Still live in a fallen world, a broken world, we still grapple
  • 00:07:49.661 --> 00:07:52.597
  • With sickness and disease the same way we have to grapple with
  • 00:07:52.597 --> 00:07:56.234
  • Sin and carnal natures.
  • 00:07:56.234 --> 00:07:59.070
  • And, you know, being a christ follower and sitting in church
  • 00:07:59.070 --> 00:08:01.840
  • Doesn't mean it's all easy, but we believe in a god who heals.
  • 00:08:01.840 --> 00:08:07.712
  • And i wanna empower you to pray for one another.
  • 00:08:07.712 --> 00:08:10.649
  • We talk a lot about, "let's pray."
  • 00:08:10.649 --> 00:08:13.952
  • And teach your kids, invite them into it.
  • 00:08:13.952 --> 00:08:18.623
  • You don't have to know everything.
  • 00:08:18.623 --> 00:08:21.226
  • The most effective prayers i typically pray are often
  • 00:08:21.226 --> 00:08:23.828
  • The simplest.
  • 00:08:23.828 --> 00:08:25.697
  • "god, we need your help."
  • 00:08:25.697 --> 00:08:28.300
  • I get--the requests come every week, dozens of them, with
  • 00:08:28.300 --> 00:08:33.204
  • People with great needs and great challenges and
  • 00:08:33.204 --> 00:08:36.141
  • Great obstacles.
  • 00:08:36.141 --> 00:08:37.509
  • If i didn't have confidence that god changes destinies--i
  • 00:08:37.509 --> 00:08:41.780
  • Interviewed a man--today's wednesday, this week,
  • 00:08:41.780 --> 00:08:44.082
  • Monday--whose father was told he had four months to live.
  • 00:08:44.082 --> 00:08:49.821
  • He had a horrible disease, there was no treatment.
  • 00:08:49.821 --> 00:08:52.424
  • He'd just fled the communist army in
  • 00:08:52.424 --> 00:08:55.760
  • China, he'd fled to taiwan.
  • 00:08:55.760 --> 00:08:57.095
  • It was years ago.
  • 00:08:57.095 --> 00:08:58.697
  • They told him he had a matter of weeks to live, and a missionary
  • 00:08:58.697 --> 00:09:01.132
  • Gave him a bible.
  • 00:09:01.132 --> 00:09:02.500
  • That's all he did, he didn't tell--he just gave him a bible.
  • 00:09:02.500 --> 00:09:04.903
  • And he said he was sick and dying, so he started reading the
  • 00:09:04.903 --> 00:09:07.105
  • Gospels, and when he got to john, he understood jesus
  • 00:09:07.105 --> 00:09:12.410
  • And he asked him to be lord of his life.
  • 00:09:12.410 --> 00:09:13.745
  • By himself, no help.
  • 00:09:13.745 --> 00:09:16.815
  • And not only was he transformed, did he become a living creature,
  • 00:09:16.815 --> 00:09:20.752
  • A new creature in christ, god healed his body.
  • 00:09:20.752 --> 00:09:24.789
  • The man looked at me and he said, "my dad had his 100th
  • 00:09:24.789 --> 00:09:27.192
  • Birthday and he just flew from taiwan to orlando."
  • 00:09:27.192 --> 00:09:36.568
  • You know, the sovereignty of god in our lives, you want to be
  • 00:09:36.568 --> 00:09:39.437
  • Guilty of inviting him in, "god, be god in my life," in the lives
  • 00:09:39.437 --> 00:09:45.176
  • Of the people that you care about.
  • 00:09:45.176 --> 00:09:49.280
  • We'll pray before we go, but i wanna tag one more idea onto
  • 00:09:49.280 --> 00:09:51.716
  • That, and it has to do--it's that next segment in your notes,
  • 00:09:51.716 --> 00:09:58.323
  • I think it's too important to just leave it out, because this
  • 00:09:58.323 --> 00:10:02.494
  • Whole notion is really linked to this idea of
  • 00:10:02.494 --> 00:10:04.496
  • Spiritual authority.
  • 00:10:04.496 --> 00:10:06.531
  • You know, we know about political authority and we
  • 00:10:06.531 --> 00:10:08.800
  • Understand that there's economic authority and military authority
  • 00:10:08.800 --> 00:10:11.503
  • And state authority and federal authority.
  • 00:10:11.503 --> 00:10:14.839
  • Some of you have jobs in places where you have little grants of
  • 00:10:14.839 --> 00:10:17.442
  • Authority, but we don't think a lot about spiritual authority
  • 00:10:17.442 --> 00:10:21.479
  • And you and i live under the authority of a
  • 00:10:21.479 --> 00:10:23.248
  • Spiritual kingdom.
  • 00:10:23.248 --> 00:10:25.684
  • Jesus said, when he was talking to the religious leaders in
  • 00:10:25.684 --> 00:10:28.353
  • Jerusalem, we read it in a previous session, that he said,
  • 00:10:28.353 --> 00:10:30.622
  • You know, he was under his father's authority and he'd been
  • 00:10:30.622 --> 00:10:33.291
  • Sent to do what his father asked him to do.
  • 00:10:33.291 --> 00:10:34.959
  • But he looked at the religious leaders in jerusalem--not the
  • 00:10:34.959 --> 00:10:37.195
  • Pagans, not the godless, not the idol worshipers, the people who
  • 00:10:37.195 --> 00:10:41.366
  • Kept kosher, the people who offered daily sacrifices and
  • 00:10:41.366 --> 00:10:44.202
  • Kept passover and did all the things, he looked at them and he
  • 00:10:44.202 --> 00:10:47.338
  • Said, "your father is the devil."
  • 00:10:47.338 --> 00:10:51.910
  • For all the people that say jesus was all about love, you
  • 00:10:51.910 --> 00:10:53.912
  • Need to read the gospels a little more carefully.
  • 00:10:53.912 --> 00:10:57.048
  • Love was a part of the ministry that jesus had, but he said some
  • 00:10:57.048 --> 00:10:59.651
  • Very direct things to folk.
  • 00:10:59.651 --> 00:11:03.855
  • "you're under the authority of the devil, even
  • 00:11:03.855 --> 00:11:05.557
  • Though you're very religious."
  • 00:11:05.557 --> 00:11:08.526
  • And i don't want you to sit in church and imagine that just
  • 00:11:08.526 --> 00:11:12.430
  • Because you sit in church, you're under the authority of
  • 00:11:12.430 --> 00:11:14.666
  • Almighty god, you have to choose jesus as lord of your life.
  • 00:11:14.666 --> 00:11:18.903
  • And as important as that initial decision is and as
  • 00:11:18.903 --> 00:11:21.339
  • Transformational as that is, you wanna get up every day and say,
  • 00:11:21.339 --> 00:11:24.342
  • "jesus, i wanna live to honor you today."
  • 00:11:24.342 --> 00:11:26.911
  • I don't want you to live in fear of your salvation, i want you to
  • 00:11:26.911 --> 00:11:29.414
  • Live in the celebration of it.
  • 00:11:29.414 --> 00:11:32.317
  • Do you understand the difference?
  • 00:11:32.317 --> 00:11:35.353
  • Not presumptively, not arrogantly, not in some
  • 00:11:35.353 --> 00:11:39.090
  • Precocious--but with a sense of wonder and joy that the creator
  • 00:11:39.090 --> 00:11:44.529
  • Of heaven and earth called your name and welcomed you into his
  • 00:11:44.529 --> 00:11:48.166
  • Kingdom, and you have the privilege of saying, "i'm
  • 00:11:48.166 --> 00:11:50.969
  • With him."
  • 00:11:50.969 --> 00:11:53.171
  • Are you one of those people?
  • 00:11:53.171 --> 00:11:54.506
  • I sure am, and wouldn't you like to be one too?
  • 00:11:54.506 --> 00:11:55.974
  • He's been so good to me, i expect he'd be good to you.
  • 00:11:55.974 --> 00:11:59.544
  • "well, you don't know the life i've led," no, but i know the
  • 00:11:59.544 --> 00:12:01.279
  • One i've led, and if he's helped me, he will help you.
  • 00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:06.851
  • Allen: so many of you send us messages: letters, emails, notes
  • 00:12:11.055 --> 00:12:14.392
  • In a variety of formats saying thank you for the ministry, for
  • 00:12:14.392 --> 00:12:17.428
  • Willing to speak the truth into culture in this rather
  • 00:12:17.428 --> 00:12:21.032
  • Tumultuous season.
  • 00:12:21.032 --> 00:12:22.801
  • Well, i hear your feedback and it's very valuable.
  • 00:12:22.801 --> 00:12:25.203
  • The question i'm so often asked
  • 00:12:25.203 --> 00:12:26.604
  • Is, "i feel like we should do more.
  • 00:12:26.604 --> 00:12:28.206
  • What can we do? how do we do something?"
  • 00:12:28.206 --> 00:12:30.441
  • Clearly god is moving in the earth.
  • 00:12:30.441 --> 00:12:32.043
  • He's raising up voices of truth.
  • 00:12:32.043 --> 00:12:33.444
  • We're certainly not unique or alone in that, but there is
  • 00:12:33.444 --> 00:12:36.347
  • Something you could do that would help us.
  • 00:12:36.347 --> 00:12:38.483
  • Join us as a monthly ministry partner.
  • 00:12:38.483 --> 00:12:41.119
  • Our baseline for how we build our plans for next comes from
  • 00:12:41.119 --> 00:12:44.422
  • Those monthly partners.
  • 00:12:44.422 --> 00:12:45.990
  • Your gift of $25 or more enables us to imagine a
  • 00:12:45.990 --> 00:12:49.627
  • Different future.
  • 00:12:49.627 --> 00:12:51.029
  • So if god has blessed you through the ministry, i would
  • 00:12:51.029 --> 00:12:53.231
  • Ask you to make that simple investment in what's next, and
  • 00:12:53.231 --> 00:12:57.135
  • Together, we will join god in helping to spread the message of
  • 00:12:57.135 --> 00:13:00.505
  • A biblical worldview and its significance for our families,
  • 00:13:00.505 --> 00:13:03.441
  • Our communities, our nation, and for the body of christ
  • 00:13:03.441 --> 00:13:06.711
  • Throughout the earth.
  • 00:13:06.711 --> 00:13:08.046
  • Join us in that partnership, we'll share some unique learning
  • 00:13:08.046 --> 00:13:10.014
  • Opportunities with you, and together, we'll move with what
  • 00:13:10.014 --> 00:13:12.917
  • God is doing in the earth right now.
  • 00:13:12.917 --> 00:13:15.086
  • Allen: there's a passage in matthew 8 that intrigues me, it
  • 00:13:18.356 --> 00:13:20.925
  • Has for a long time.
  • 00:13:20.925 --> 00:13:23.127
  • Jesus is in capernaum, it's where he's moved to begin his
  • 00:13:23.127 --> 00:13:25.763
  • Public ministry.
  • 00:13:25.763 --> 00:13:27.799
  • It's the crossroads of galilee.
  • 00:13:27.799 --> 00:13:30.702
  • If you wanted to make a strategic move, jesus moved out
  • 00:13:30.702 --> 00:13:32.904
  • Of the hills of galilee to a strategic location where there
  • 00:13:32.904 --> 00:13:35.807
  • Was more traffic than any place else in galilee, the busiest
  • 00:13:35.807 --> 00:13:38.343
  • Roman road on the largest freshwater source
  • 00:13:38.343 --> 00:13:41.446
  • Within miles and miles.
  • 00:13:41.446 --> 00:13:42.780
  • It's a desert country and it's the largest body of fresh water,
  • 00:13:42.780 --> 00:13:46.718
  • And jesus sets up shop.
  • 00:13:46.718 --> 00:13:49.954
  • And there's a roman centurion there, he should hate him,
  • 00:13:49.954 --> 00:13:52.657
  • They're enemies.
  • 00:13:52.657 --> 00:13:55.994
  • Israel is an occupied country, it's humiliating,
  • 00:13:55.994 --> 00:13:58.563
  • It's demeaning.
  • 00:13:58.563 --> 00:14:00.198
  • I assure you that there were soldiers that mistreated the
  • 00:14:00.198 --> 00:14:02.500
  • Local population.
  • 00:14:02.500 --> 00:14:03.835
  • They extorted money from them, they took advantage of
  • 00:14:03.835 --> 00:14:05.503
  • The women.
  • 00:14:05.503 --> 00:14:07.238
  • No question.
  • 00:14:07.238 --> 00:14:09.474
  • And the centurion is in this, the centurion says he has a
  • 00:14:09.474 --> 00:14:12.243
  • Servant who's sick and he wants jesus to come heal him, and
  • 00:14:12.243 --> 00:14:14.612
  • Jesus says he'll go, it makes people mad, "why would you go
  • 00:14:14.612 --> 00:14:19.183
  • With the centurions?"
  • 00:14:19.183 --> 00:14:23.888
  • Nevertheless, so the centurion comes and said, "lord, i don't
  • 00:14:23.888 --> 00:14:26.457
  • Deserve to have you come under my roof.
  • 00:14:26.457 --> 00:14:28.860
  • But just say the word, and my servant will be healed."
  • 00:14:28.860 --> 00:14:33.831
  • That's astounding.
  • 00:14:33.831 --> 00:14:37.936
  • How does he know?
  • 00:14:37.936 --> 00:14:40.405
  • There's no explanation offered.
  • 00:14:40.405 --> 00:14:42.206
  • I mean, he offers a bit
  • 00:14:42.206 --> 00:14:43.541
  • Of an explanation of his understanding.
  • 00:14:43.541 --> 00:14:44.876
  • He said, "i'm a man under authority,"
  • 00:14:44.876 --> 00:14:46.210
  • Look at it, i'll read it.
  • 00:14:46.210 --> 00:14:47.545
  • He said, "i'm a man under authority, with soldiers
  • 00:14:47.545 --> 00:14:49.180
  • Under me: i tell one to go, and he
  • 00:14:49.180 --> 00:14:50.715
  • Goes; and that one to come, and he comes.
  • 00:14:50.715 --> 00:14:52.050
  • And i say to my servant, 'do this,' and you better believe he
  • 00:14:52.050 --> 00:14:54.352
  • Does it.
  • 00:14:54.352 --> 00:14:56.487
  • If he doesn't, i'll flex."
  • 00:14:56.487 --> 00:14:59.791
  • And when jesus heard this, when he heard this man's explanation,
  • 00:14:59.791 --> 00:15:04.329
  • It says, "he was astonished."
  • 00:15:04.329 --> 00:15:07.265
  • Astonished, jesus is astonished!
  • 00:15:07.265 --> 00:15:10.535
  • I'm thinking it's pretty hard to surprise the creator.
  • 00:15:10.535 --> 00:15:15.807
  • He's astonished, and he said to those who were following, "i
  • 00:15:15.807 --> 00:15:19.444
  • Tell you the truth," and you know by now he's about to drop a
  • 00:15:19.444 --> 00:15:21.612
  • Bomb, "i tell you the truth, i haven't found anyone in israel
  • 00:15:21.612 --> 00:15:25.249
  • With such great faith."
  • 00:15:25.249 --> 00:15:27.318
  • Not amongst the priests, not amongst the sadducees, not
  • 00:15:27.318 --> 00:15:29.787
  • Amongst the pharisees, not in the synagogues, not at the
  • 00:15:29.787 --> 00:15:32.924
  • Temple, in fact, anybody that has faith like this roman pagan
  • 00:15:32.924 --> 00:15:37.829
  • Soldier, "lord, you don't need to come to my house.
  • 00:15:37.829 --> 00:15:42.934
  • I don't deserve to have you come to my house."
  • 00:15:42.934 --> 00:15:45.603
  • You see, in our arrogance, you want him to come to your house
  • 00:15:45.603 --> 00:15:51.275
  • 'cause when you tell the story, you wanna lead with, "you know,
  • 00:15:51.275 --> 00:15:53.811
  • Jesus came to my house."
  • 00:15:53.811 --> 00:16:01.152
  • Well, we get our priorities so out of whack, the lord can't
  • 00:16:01.152 --> 00:16:03.688
  • Answer our prayers.
  • 00:16:03.688 --> 00:16:06.124
  • We get our pride and our ego and our selfish ambition and we want
  • 00:16:06.124 --> 00:16:11.329
  • It the way we want it and we want it to happen the way we
  • 00:16:11.329 --> 00:16:13.331
  • Want it to happen or we're not--we won't accept it, and
  • 00:16:13.331 --> 00:16:16.401
  • This roman soldier rolls up and said, "listen, i don't
  • 00:16:16.401 --> 00:16:19.170
  • Deserve you."
  • 00:16:19.170 --> 00:16:20.538
  • He could have had jesus brought to his house in chains at the
  • 00:16:20.538 --> 00:16:22.340
  • Point of a spear.
  • 00:16:22.340 --> 00:16:25.043
  • He could have made jesus crawl to his house.
  • 00:16:25.043 --> 00:16:31.549
  • He's gonna take some real heat from his fellow soldiers, "did
  • 00:16:31.549 --> 00:16:34.552
  • You actually go out to that itinerant rabbi and grovel?
  • 00:16:34.552 --> 00:16:41.793
  • Did you really do that?"
  • 00:16:41.793 --> 00:16:44.295
  • You see, he's put him on--his own self in jeopardy.
  • 00:16:44.295 --> 00:16:48.032
  • Now, the fuel for it, i suppose, is his compassion for the person
  • 00:16:48.032 --> 00:16:51.536
  • Who needs healing, but "i don't deserve to have you come to my
  • 00:16:51.536 --> 00:16:55.206
  • House, but if you will just say the word," that man's had a
  • 00:16:55.206 --> 00:17:00.545
  • Revelation, he understands something about spiritual
  • 00:17:00.545 --> 00:17:06.884
  • Authority that the majority of the people that fill our
  • 00:17:06.884 --> 00:17:09.053
  • Churches have no clue about, "if you'll just say the word, my
  • 00:17:09.053 --> 00:17:14.325
  • Servant can be okay."
  • 00:17:14.325 --> 00:17:17.061
  • And then he tries to explain it a bit.
  • 00:17:17.061 --> 00:17:18.563
  • He's, "look, i understand, i have some authority."
  • 00:17:18.563 --> 00:17:20.398
  • He said, "i got physical authority.
  • 00:17:20.398 --> 00:17:21.766
  • I got authority over soldiers, i've even got authority over
  • 00:17:21.766 --> 00:17:24.735
  • Some people who aren't soldiers.
  • 00:17:24.735 --> 00:17:26.104
  • I," he said, "i got a little bit of clout, i'm on an org chart,
  • 00:17:26.104 --> 00:17:32.343
  • But you have authority over sickness and disease."
  • 00:17:32.343 --> 00:17:38.149
  • Now, i don't know, i don't know if he's been on the periphery of
  • 00:17:38.149 --> 00:17:40.751
  • A crowd where jesus had ministered.
  • 00:17:40.751 --> 00:17:43.354
  • I don't know if he had a friend.
  • 00:17:43.354 --> 00:17:44.822
  • I don't know how he knows, but somehow he knows, and he
  • 00:17:44.822 --> 00:17:49.193
  • Has believed.
  • 00:17:49.193 --> 00:17:51.929
  • See, what i'm really inviting you to is a different attitude
  • 00:17:51.929 --> 00:17:55.199
  • Towards belief.
  • 00:17:55.199 --> 00:17:56.934
  • Not an arrogant one, not a boisterous one, not a
  • 00:17:56.934 --> 00:17:59.637
  • Demanding one.
  • 00:17:59.637 --> 00:18:00.972
  • This man doesn't come with any of those characteristics, he
  • 00:18:00.972 --> 00:18:03.307
  • Comes with tremendous humility and he says, "i believe."
  • 00:18:03.307 --> 00:18:07.311
  • "i believe if you would just say the word," and jesus
  • 00:18:07.311 --> 00:18:11.549
  • Is astonished.
  • 00:18:11.549 --> 00:18:15.820
  • He goes into the synagogue, jesus, on the sabbath, and he
  • 00:18:15.820 --> 00:18:20.358
  • Heals someone who's been--had a physical issue for more than a
  • 00:18:20.358 --> 00:18:25.062
  • Dozen years, and the leader of the synagogue is mad at him,
  • 00:18:25.062 --> 00:18:31.135
  • Remember that?
  • 00:18:31.135 --> 00:18:32.470
  • "you shouldn't have done it today."
  • 00:18:32.470 --> 00:18:34.705
  • I'm pretty sure the person that got well didn't care.
  • 00:18:34.705 --> 00:18:39.744
  • But the centurion has such a different attitude.
  • 00:18:39.744 --> 00:18:41.979
  • Remember i started with "guard your heart above all else"?
  • 00:18:41.979 --> 00:18:46.617
  • Be careful what you let in your--some of you are mad at
  • 00:18:46.617 --> 00:18:48.753
  • God, and you've been carrying that for a long, long time
  • 00:18:48.753 --> 00:18:52.223
  • Because there was some circumstance in your life that
  • 00:18:52.223 --> 00:18:54.792
  • Didn't emerge the way you wanted it to emerge and you think god
  • 00:18:54.792 --> 00:18:57.795
  • Didn't treat you fairly.
  • 00:18:57.795 --> 00:18:59.463
  • And so you didn't renounce your faith, you've just chosen to sit
  • 00:18:59.463 --> 00:19:02.033
  • In the seat of a skeptic, and it's a very
  • 00:19:02.033 --> 00:19:03.701
  • Destructive position.
  • 00:19:03.701 --> 00:19:09.207
  • I read every day, i wanna learn every day.
  • 00:19:09.207 --> 00:19:12.476
  • I wanna grow a little bit every day, particularly in my
  • 00:19:12.476 --> 00:19:16.380
  • Awareness of the kingdom of god, which means one of the lines
  • 00:19:16.380 --> 00:19:21.252
  • That you don't want to get instilled in your heart is,
  • 00:19:21.252 --> 00:19:24.388
  • "well, that's not how i believe."
  • 00:19:24.388 --> 00:19:27.491
  • You can say, "that's not how i used to believe," or "you know,
  • 00:19:27.491 --> 00:19:32.096
  • That wasn't something i understood until not too long
  • 00:19:32.096 --> 00:19:35.099
  • Ago, but god began to help me gain some understanding and now
  • 00:19:35.099 --> 00:19:40.671
  • I can--honestly, i believe it.
  • 00:19:40.671 --> 00:19:42.373
  • And i can't really fully explain why i believe it, it's almost
  • 00:19:42.373 --> 00:19:44.909
  • Like a revelation, i just know it's true.
  • 00:19:44.909 --> 00:19:51.315
  • No, i can't explain to you."
  • 00:19:51.315 --> 00:19:52.683
  • Once upon a time, i was introduced to all the chemical
  • 00:19:52.683 --> 00:19:56.187
  • Equations from the point where the energy radiates from the
  • 00:19:56.187 --> 00:19:59.056
  • Sun, it's absorbed by chlorophyll in the earth and
  • 00:19:59.056 --> 00:20:02.593
  • Green grass and it's eaten by a black and white cow who gives
  • 00:20:02.593 --> 00:20:05.529
  • White milk from which we make yellow butter and strawberry
  • 00:20:05.529 --> 00:20:07.765
  • Ice cream.
  • 00:20:07.765 --> 00:20:12.303
  • I can't reproduce all those chemical equations any longer,
  • 00:20:12.303 --> 00:20:15.373
  • But i believe it, and i don't
  • 00:20:15.373 --> 00:20:22.647
  • Think it violates my intellect.
  • 00:20:22.647 --> 00:20:25.583
  • I don't know why we're so stubborn in believing the lord.
  • 00:20:25.583 --> 00:20:30.187
  • You're under spiritual authority, be certain that every
  • 00:20:30.187 --> 00:20:33.824
  • Day you purposefully choose to yield to the authority of god in
  • 00:20:33.824 --> 00:20:39.764
  • How you conduct yourself at home, in how you conduct
  • 00:20:39.764 --> 00:20:41.932
  • Yourself at work, in how you conduct yourself with your
  • 00:20:41.932 --> 00:20:44.902
  • Friends, with your discretionary time.
  • 00:20:44.902 --> 00:20:47.672
  • You're in the world, you're not out of it, you're gonna hear
  • 00:20:47.672 --> 00:20:49.840
  • Words that you probably don't wanna say, and you'll be exposed
  • 00:20:49.840 --> 00:20:53.744
  • To circumstances that will bring grief to you.
  • 00:20:53.744 --> 00:20:57.782
  • I don't think we should avoid that, i think we're in those
  • 00:20:57.782 --> 00:20:59.650
  • Places to be light and to be salt and to be a voice and to
  • 00:20:59.650 --> 00:21:04.522
  • Have a different response and to model something.
  • 00:21:04.522 --> 00:21:07.758
  • So if god's got you in one of those places, it's not simple
  • 00:21:07.758 --> 00:21:10.094
  • And it's more difficult than you would like, he trusts you enough
  • 00:21:10.094 --> 00:21:13.030
  • To be a dark in a really--a light in a really dark place.
  • 00:21:13.030 --> 00:21:16.934
  • Don't complain, say thank you.
  • 00:21:16.934 --> 00:21:20.971
  • When god recruited moses, he gave him a really difficult job,
  • 00:21:20.971 --> 00:21:26.677
  • "i want you to go find the most powerful man in the world and
  • 00:21:26.677 --> 00:21:29.447
  • Tell him to let--turn--release his most prized possessions for
  • 00:21:29.447 --> 00:21:34.585
  • Nothing, and tell him if he doesn't do it, i'll punish him."
  • 00:21:34.585 --> 00:21:40.491
  • I mean, it wasn't even a friendly invitation.
  • 00:21:40.491 --> 00:21:43.994
  • And even after moses managed to secure the freedom of the hebrew
  • 00:21:43.994 --> 00:21:47.665
  • Slaves, he's got one grumpy group of people to spend the
  • 00:21:47.665 --> 00:21:51.335
  • Rest of his life with.
  • 00:21:51.335 --> 00:21:54.205
  • They're in the desert and there's no food, and he prays
  • 00:21:54.205 --> 00:21:56.674
  • And god provides food, and then they tell him they don't like
  • 00:21:56.674 --> 00:21:58.943
  • The menu.
  • 00:21:58.943 --> 00:22:03.748
  • Then he charts a course that includes the parting of the sea,
  • 00:22:03.748 --> 00:22:07.718
  • And they don't like the direction in which he
  • 00:22:07.718 --> 00:22:09.687
  • Leads them.
  • 00:22:09.687 --> 00:22:12.390
  • So god gets mad and the earth swallows a few thousand of them,
  • 00:22:12.390 --> 00:22:16.193
  • And the next morning there's a complaint line, for real!
  • 00:22:16.193 --> 00:22:24.201
  • And i complain 'cause you go to work and not everybody likes me.
  • 00:22:24.201 --> 00:22:29.907
  • Welcome to the story.
  • 00:22:29.907 --> 00:22:33.077
  • I wanna pray for you, it's time for me to be quiet.
  • 00:22:33.077 --> 00:22:34.912
  • I brought you a blessing, but i wanna pray.
  • 00:22:34.912 --> 00:22:36.347
  • If you're here and you need healing--i don't mean you know
  • 00:22:36.347 --> 00:22:39.984
  • Somebody, this is--i wanna pray for those who are here tonight.
  • 00:22:39.984 --> 00:22:41.986
  • If you're at home, i'll count you in on that, but it's
  • 00:22:41.986 --> 00:22:43.954
  • For you.
  • 00:22:43.954 --> 00:22:46.424
  • If i ask, you know, if we--if i ask you to stand for everybody
  • 00:22:46.424 --> 00:22:48.993
  • That knows somebody, we'd all stand 'cause we've all got
  • 00:22:48.993 --> 00:22:50.694
  • Somebody we care about.
  • 00:22:50.694 --> 00:22:52.763
  • But i wanna pray for those that are here, and then you go away
  • 00:22:52.763 --> 00:22:55.366
  • And you've got a prayer to pray for the rest of those.
  • 00:22:55.366 --> 00:23:00.471
  • So if you're here and you need a god event, just real quickly
  • 00:23:00.471 --> 00:23:03.274
  • Stand, it's time for me to hush.
  • 00:23:03.274 --> 00:23:05.176
  • It's senior night for the teenagers tonight, they're all
  • 00:23:05.176 --> 00:23:08.312
  • Celebrating with families just down the hall.
  • 00:23:08.312 --> 00:23:11.949
  • If you weren't here sunday night to see the children's choir, you
  • 00:23:11.949 --> 00:23:14.385
  • Missed it.
  • 00:23:14.385 --> 00:23:16.320
  • I'm telling you, they blessed me, i've been riding on that all
  • 00:23:16.320 --> 00:23:18.722
  • Week long.
  • 00:23:18.722 --> 00:23:24.695
  • Hundreds of those kids honoring the lord, wow!
  • 00:23:24.695 --> 00:23:31.602
  • We do need god, don't we, folks?
  • 00:23:31.602 --> 00:23:34.038
  • Well, the four of you that aren't standing might as well
  • 00:23:34.038 --> 00:23:35.906
  • Join the rest of us, it's okay.
  • 00:23:35.906 --> 00:23:42.713
  • Why don't you take somebody's hand near you?
  • 00:23:42.713 --> 00:23:44.415
  • We don't have to make a circle, i just don't want you
  • 00:23:44.415 --> 00:23:46.016
  • By yourself.
  • 00:23:46.016 --> 00:23:48.652
  • You know, this is a group exercise.
  • 00:23:48.652 --> 00:23:50.387
  • You'll stand alone before the lord, but you won't make that
  • 00:23:50.387 --> 00:23:52.990
  • Appointment unless you travel in community.
  • 00:23:52.990 --> 00:23:57.061
  • You won't make it by yourself, the bible says we--maturity
  • 00:23:57.061 --> 00:23:59.730
  • Comes in community.
  • 00:23:59.730 --> 00:24:01.966
  • And if you're not mature, you can't survive in a world where
  • 00:24:01.966 --> 00:24:04.869
  • The devil prowls around like a roaring lion.
  • 00:24:04.869 --> 00:24:09.273
  • It takes maturity to survive in the jungle, and to find that
  • 00:24:09.273 --> 00:24:13.711
  • Maturity, we need one another.
  • 00:24:13.711 --> 00:24:17.314
  • Father, i thank you for your word, for the truth that it
  • 00:24:17.314 --> 00:24:19.583
  • Brings, the revelation that it brings to us of your character.
  • 00:24:19.583 --> 00:24:23.354
  • Lord, all of creation reminds us that you're a god who restores
  • 00:24:23.354 --> 00:24:28.359
  • And renews and refreshes and heals, i thank you for that.
  • 00:24:28.359 --> 00:24:33.397
  • And i thank you for the insight that jesus on the cross
  • 00:24:33.397 --> 00:24:37.301
  • Exhausted the curse of sin, that he carried the punishment for
  • 00:24:37.301 --> 00:24:43.274
  • Our rebellion and our godlessness, that we might have
  • 00:24:43.274 --> 00:24:50.748
  • Peace with you, that we might be made righteous and justified,
  • 00:24:50.748 --> 00:24:55.553
  • That we may--might--be made not guilty in your sight.
  • 00:24:55.553 --> 00:24:59.390
  • Lord, i thank you that in that, your power is available to bring
  • 00:24:59.390 --> 00:25:02.593
  • Life to our mortal bodies, to bring peace to our souls and
  • 00:25:02.593 --> 00:25:07.164
  • Hope where there's been despair.
  • 00:25:07.164 --> 00:25:09.400
  • And i pray for those tonight that have listened and have
  • 00:25:09.400 --> 00:25:12.202
  • Stood and acknowledged their need, i pray that you bring life
  • 00:25:12.202 --> 00:25:15.372
  • To us.
  • 00:25:15.372 --> 00:25:17.074
  • Lord, you're the healer, whether you bring it through the medical
  • 00:25:17.074 --> 00:25:20.244
  • Community or you bring it supernaturally, we turn our
  • 00:25:20.244 --> 00:25:23.213
  • Faces to you now and ask for your life in our bodies.
  • 00:25:23.213 --> 00:25:26.383
  • We praise you for it, the greater is the spirit in us than
  • 00:25:26.383 --> 00:25:29.787
  • The spirit that stands in opposition to us.
  • 00:25:29.787 --> 00:25:32.890
  • That just as you have made us a new creation in christ, that you
  • 00:25:32.890 --> 00:25:36.760
  • Will give us the strength to complete our assignments, to
  • 00:25:36.760 --> 00:25:39.330
  • Fulfill our days, that not one day, not one portion of the
  • 00:25:39.330 --> 00:25:43.400
  • Assignment will be taken from us.
  • 00:25:43.400 --> 00:25:46.370
  • Give us a joy in serving you that will cause our strength to
  • 00:25:46.370 --> 00:25:50.140
  • Be renewed day by day.
  • 00:25:50.140 --> 00:25:52.409
  • We praise you for it, and we thank you for it.
  • 00:25:52.409 --> 00:25:54.445
  • We receive it by faith in jesus's name, amen, hallelujah,
  • 00:25:54.445 --> 00:26:00.417

  • This team of people creates all the content you see so
  • 00:26:15.866 --> 00:26:18.402
  • Frequently across a variety of platforms.
  • 00:26:18.402 --> 00:26:21.372
  • And you're so gracious, the messages you send, the notes,

  • The emails, the texts, the letters you send are an

  • Enormous encouragement.
  • 00:26:27.044 --> 00:26:28.379
  • The question we're asked most frequently is how can you pray,
  • 00:26:28.379 --> 00:26:31.415
  • And is there anything you can do to help as we spread the truth?
  • 00:26:31.415 --> 00:26:34.685
  • And candidly, there is, join us as a monthly ministry partner.

  • For your gift of $25 or more on a monthly basis, you enable us
  • 00:26:39.156 --> 00:26:43.427
  • To take these messages and to share them across a variety
  • 00:26:43.427 --> 00:26:47.264
  • Of platforms.
  • 00:26:47.264 --> 00:26:48.632
