  • ...
  • 00:00:00.633 --> 00:00:01.317
  • Allen jackson: god is moving in the earth in the most
  • 00:00:06.656 --> 00:00:08.324
  • Remarkable ways.
  • 00:00:08.324 --> 00:00:09.726
  • It truly is extraordinary what we see god doing.
  • 00:00:09.726 --> 00:00:12.829
  • We have people coming to our campus in middle tennessee from
  • 00:00:12.829 --> 00:00:15.432
  • All over the nation, from nations of the world.
  • 00:00:15.432 --> 00:00:17.734
  • We're seeing more people baptized, more people engaging
  • 00:00:17.734 --> 00:00:20.637
  • In ministry.
  • 00:00:20.637 --> 00:00:21.971
  • It's truly a remarkable time to see god raising up voices
  • 00:00:21.971 --> 00:00:24.574
  • Of truth.
  • 00:00:24.574 --> 00:00:25.942
  • The one thing we hear consistently that is valued from
  • 00:00:25.942 --> 00:00:28.478
  • The ministry is our willingness to speak the truth into the
  • 00:00:28.478 --> 00:00:32.115
  • Current set of circumstances.
  • 00:00:32.115 --> 00:00:34.117
  • And people often ask, "is there anything we can do to help?"
  • 00:00:34.117 --> 00:00:36.386
  • And in reality there is.
  • 00:00:36.386 --> 00:00:37.720
  • I wanna invite you to consider becoming a monthly
  • 00:00:37.720 --> 00:00:40.090
  • Ministry partner.
  • 00:00:40.090 --> 00:00:41.791
  • For your gift of $25 a month, you enable us to imagine a
  • 00:00:41.791 --> 00:00:46.429
  • Future that expands the platforms of the ministry.
  • 00:00:46.429 --> 00:00:49.365
  • That's our baseline for how we plan and what we look
  • 00:00:49.365 --> 00:00:51.468
  • Forward to.
  • 00:00:51.468 --> 00:00:52.836
  • If you haven't yet taken that step, please prayerfully
  • 00:00:52.836 --> 00:00:55.271
  • Consider doing so.
  • 00:00:55.271 --> 00:00:56.639
  • We'll share some extra content with you and some unique
  • 00:00:56.639 --> 00:00:58.708
  • Opportunities with you, and together, we'll take a message
  • 00:00:58.708 --> 00:01:01.978
  • Of truth to this generation.
  • 00:01:01.978 --> 00:01:03.847
  • God is moving and we wanna move with him.
  • 00:01:03.847 --> 00:01:09.018
  • Allen: i wanna give you a tool.
  • 00:01:09.018 --> 00:01:10.386
  • Revelation chapter 12 and verse 11.
  • 00:01:10.386 --> 00:01:12.755
  • You have it in your outlines.
  • 00:01:12.755 --> 00:01:15.425
  • Says, "they overcame him by the blood of the lamb and by the
  • 00:01:15.425 --> 00:01:18.628
  • Word of their testimony."
  • 00:01:18.628 --> 00:01:19.963
  • And i put in your notes some parenthetical insertions, some
  • 00:01:19.963 --> 00:01:23.633
  • Words in parenthesis that help amplify that verse just a bit.
  • 00:01:23.633 --> 00:01:28.738
  • "they (the believers on the earth)
  • 00:01:28.738 --> 00:01:31.274
  • Overcame him (satan)
  • 00:01:31.274 --> 00:01:32.775
  • By the blood of the lamb (that's jesus)
  • 00:01:32.775 --> 00:01:36.379
  • And by the word of their testimony."
  • 00:01:36.379 --> 00:01:39.015
  • Or if i just said it in good southern vernacular, (that is,
  • 00:01:39.015 --> 00:01:42.051
  • They testified to what the word of god says about the blood
  • 00:01:42.051 --> 00:01:44.854
  • Of jesus).
  • 00:01:44.854 --> 00:01:47.457
  • Do you remember the exodus story,
  • 00:01:47.457 --> 00:01:49.659
  • The last night the hebrew slaves spent in egypt?
  • 00:01:49.659 --> 00:01:53.229
  • All the plagues, all the expressions of the power of god
  • 00:01:53.229 --> 00:01:56.366
  • And it hadn't changed the hearts of pharaoh or the people.
  • 00:01:56.366 --> 00:01:59.636
  • They weren't about to release the hebrew slaves.
  • 00:01:59.636 --> 00:02:03.573
  • And god told moses to tell the hebrews to take a lamb and to
  • 00:02:03.573 --> 00:02:09.946
  • Prepare the lamb.
  • 00:02:09.946 --> 00:02:11.281
  • They gave him specific instructions on how to prepare
  • 00:02:11.281 --> 00:02:13.449
  • The food.
  • 00:02:13.449 --> 00:02:14.817
  • The bread was to have no yeast because it didn't have time to
  • 00:02:14.817 --> 00:02:17.820
  • Rise, but they were just to catch the blood of the lamb in a
  • 00:02:17.820 --> 00:02:20.523
  • Basin and to use hyssop, a common weed in the region.
  • 00:02:20.523 --> 00:02:25.195
  • And to put some of the blood on the doorpost of the house
  • 00:02:25.195 --> 00:02:28.998
  • Because god said that night death was gonna pass through the
  • 00:02:28.998 --> 00:02:31.568
  • Land of egypt and on every house where their blood was on the
  • 00:02:31.568 --> 00:02:34.637
  • Doorpost, they would be spared, but where that blood was
  • 00:02:34.637 --> 00:02:38.074
  • Not on the doorpost of the house, the first born in every
  • 00:02:38.074 --> 00:02:41.010
  • House would die.
  • 00:02:41.010 --> 00:02:43.680
  • Whether it was a man, a woman, or even an animal, god said.
  • 00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:47.717
  • Death rolled through the land of egypt that night and the only
  • 00:02:47.717 --> 00:02:51.020
  • People spared were the people with the blood on the doorpost
  • 00:02:51.020 --> 00:02:53.423
  • Of their house.
  • 00:02:53.423 --> 00:02:54.958
  • Do you think there was anybody in the hebrew community that
  • 00:02:54.958 --> 00:02:57.727
  • Didn't participate?
  • 00:02:57.727 --> 00:03:01.097
  • I promise. i promise.
  • 00:03:01.097 --> 00:03:05.735
  • And the next morning, there was so much grief, so much fear that
  • 00:03:05.735 --> 00:03:10.506
  • They literally drove the hebrew slaves out of egypt.
  • 00:03:10.506 --> 00:03:13.710
  • They gave them their gold and their silver.
  • 00:03:13.710 --> 00:03:16.646
  • Well, that's the imagery that's being used in revelation.
  • 00:03:16.646 --> 00:03:20.650
  • It's the blood on the doorpost of the house except it says we
  • 00:03:20.650 --> 00:03:23.453
  • Overcome satan by the blood of the lamb.
  • 00:03:23.453 --> 00:03:26.222
  • We don't put it on the doorframe of our house any longer,
  • 00:03:26.222 --> 00:03:29.158
  • We apply it to the circumstances of our lives with the word of
  • 00:03:29.158 --> 00:03:32.362
  • Our testimony.
  • 00:03:32.362 --> 00:03:34.330
  • It's not enough to have a bible.
  • 00:03:34.330 --> 00:03:36.466
  • It's not even enough to have committed to the memory or read
  • 00:03:36.466 --> 00:03:38.668
  • It to know what it says.
  • 00:03:38.668 --> 00:03:40.370
  • We have to give application of that truth with the authority of
  • 00:03:40.370 --> 00:03:45.174
  • Our words.
  • 00:03:45.174 --> 00:03:46.542
  • You know, your words carry with them a spiritual authority.
  • 00:03:46.542 --> 00:03:49.879
  • I know you know that.
  • 00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:51.314
  • You've been wounded by things people have said.
  • 00:03:51.314 --> 00:03:54.550
  • You know, we learned a little phrase as kids, "sticks and
  • 00:03:54.550 --> 00:03:56.386
  • Stones will break my bones but words will never hurt me."
  • 00:03:56.386 --> 00:03:59.222
  • It's not true. it's not true.
  • 00:03:59.222 --> 00:04:03.593
  • Well, if it's true in the negative, i assure you it's true
  • 00:04:03.593 --> 00:04:06.262
  • In the positive.
  • 00:04:06.262 --> 00:04:07.597
  • You can say what the word of god has said about you and it will
  • 00:04:07.597 --> 00:04:10.600
  • Bring freedom and liberty to your life.
  • 00:04:10.600 --> 00:04:13.403
  • So i'm gonna give you some verses of scripture and then i'm
  • 00:04:13.403 --> 00:04:15.538
  • Gonna give you a proclamation, a profession of faith that is a
  • 00:04:15.538 --> 00:04:18.841
  • Summary statement of those verses of scripture.
  • 00:04:18.841 --> 00:04:22.011
  • And whatever challenges you're facing tonight, i'm gonna show
  • 00:04:22.011 --> 00:04:24.681
  • You through the word of god, the victory that is ours through the
  • 00:04:24.681 --> 00:04:28.117
  • Blood of jesus.
  • 00:04:28.117 --> 00:04:29.886
  • But in order to realize that, to live in that, you've got to be
  • 00:04:29.886 --> 00:04:33.323
  • Willing to give expression to it.
  • 00:04:33.323 --> 00:04:36.359
  • Let's walk through it, and then i'll give you some hints on how
  • 00:04:36.359 --> 00:04:40.730
  • To put it into practice.
  • 00:04:40.730 --> 00:04:44.033
  • Ephesians 1:7 says, "in whom we have redemption through his
  • 00:04:44.033 --> 00:04:47.403
  • Blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of
  • 00:04:47.403 --> 00:04:50.506
  • His grace."
  • 00:04:50.506 --> 00:04:52.175
  • In psalm 107, "let the redeemed of the lord say so, whom he hath
  • 00:04:52.175 --> 00:04:56.312
  • Redeemed from the hand of the enemy."
  • 00:04:56.312 --> 00:04:58.114
  • Don't just say, "let the redeemed of the lord believe in
  • 00:04:58.114 --> 00:05:00.116
  • Their redeemer."
  • 00:05:00.116 --> 00:05:01.851
  • Says, "let the redeemed of the lord say so."
  • 00:05:01.851 --> 00:05:05.855
  • I think church and worship and the people of god should
  • 00:05:05.855 --> 00:05:08.324
  • Be respectful.
  • 00:05:08.324 --> 00:05:09.692
  • I think an expression of the fear of god, a reverence for god
  • 00:05:09.692 --> 00:05:12.595
  • Should be a part of when we're together, but i don't understand
  • 00:05:12.595 --> 00:05:15.665
  • That to mean we're timid.
  • 00:05:15.665 --> 00:05:17.800
  • "let the redeemed of the lord say so," the psalmist said.
  • 00:05:17.800 --> 00:05:21.270
  • So i take those three verses and i testify to what the word of
  • 00:05:21.270 --> 00:05:24.340
  • God says the blood of jesus does for me.
  • 00:05:24.340 --> 00:05:27.343
  • Through the blood of jesus, i am redeemed out of the hand of
  • 00:05:27.343 --> 00:05:30.246
  • The devil.
  • 00:05:30.246 --> 00:05:31.748
  • Through the blood of jesus, all my sins are forgiven, amen?
  • 00:05:31.748 --> 00:05:37.754
  • I can't accomplish any of those things for myself.
  • 00:05:37.754 --> 00:05:40.890
  • The only possible way they can be descriptive of allen is if,
  • 00:05:40.890 --> 00:05:45.361
  • By faith, i receive what jesus accomplished for me through his
  • 00:05:45.361 --> 00:05:49.332
  • Shed blood.
  • 00:05:49.332 --> 00:05:51.100
  • I want to invite you to make those three statements with me.
  • 00:05:51.100 --> 00:05:53.202
  • We can just read them together if you would like.
  • 00:05:53.202 --> 00:05:56.472
  • Are you ready?
  • 00:05:56.472 --> 00:05:57.807
  • In your outdoor voice.
  • 00:05:57.807 --> 00:06:00.076
  • "i testify to what the word of god says the blood of jesus does
  • 00:06:00.076 --> 00:06:04.547
  • For me; through the blood of jesus, i am redeemed out of the
  • 00:06:04.547 --> 00:06:09.185
  • Hand of the devil; through the blood of jesus, all my sins
  • 00:06:09.185 --> 00:06:14.424
  • Are forgiven."
  • 00:06:14.424 --> 00:06:16.159
  • That's a good beginning.
  • 00:06:16.159 --> 00:06:17.527
  • Let's not stop there.
  • 00:06:17.527 --> 00:06:18.861
  • 1 john 1:7, "if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we
  • 00:06:18.861 --> 00:06:22.665
  • Have fellowship with one another, and the blood of jesus
  • 00:06:22.665 --> 00:06:25.635
  • Christ his son cleanses us from all sin."
  • 00:06:25.635 --> 00:06:30.740
  • I don't do a lot of word studies with you.
  • 00:06:30.740 --> 00:06:33.776
  • I can put you to sleep without them.
  • 00:06:33.776 --> 00:06:36.913
  • But there is a bit of a grammatical component in that
  • 00:06:36.913 --> 00:06:39.949
  • Verse that is helpful.
  • 00:06:39.949 --> 00:06:41.517
  • The verbs in that verse are in the continuing present tense.
  • 00:06:41.517 --> 00:06:47.423
  • So if we wanted to read it in the most literal expression, you
  • 00:06:47.423 --> 00:06:51.227
  • Would say if we walk and continue to walk in the light.
  • 00:06:51.227 --> 00:06:55.731
  • And if we fellowship or if we continue in fellowship with one
  • 00:06:55.731 --> 00:07:00.102
  • Another, then the blood of jesus christ his son continually
  • 00:07:00.102 --> 00:07:05.575
  • Cleanses us from all sin.
  • 00:07:05.575 --> 00:07:08.878
  • In order to be cleansed, we have to walk in the light and we have
  • 00:07:08.878 --> 00:07:13.182
  • To stay in fellowship.
  • 00:07:13.182 --> 00:07:15.685
  • There were many destructive aspects of the covid craziness,
  • 00:07:15.685 --> 00:07:21.424
  • But one of them was the lie that emerged that it's not important
  • 00:07:21.424 --> 00:07:25.228
  • For the people of faith to be together.
  • 00:07:25.228 --> 00:07:29.665
  • I understand we can learn in many ways.
  • 00:07:29.665 --> 00:07:31.367
  • I'm grateful for all the digital technology and all the ways we
  • 00:07:31.367 --> 00:07:34.170
  • Can communicate.
  • 00:07:34.170 --> 00:07:35.905
  • What we'll do on our campus this weekend will be shared in the
  • 00:07:35.905 --> 00:07:38.341
  • Nations of the world.
  • 00:07:38.341 --> 00:07:39.709
  • I'm very thankful for that.
  • 00:07:39.709 --> 00:07:41.143
  • But there is something that cannot be replaced with being in
  • 00:07:41.143 --> 00:07:44.447
  • The midst of people of faith saying yes to the lord.
  • 00:07:44.447 --> 00:07:48.684
  • And if you have settled for a digital worship service, i'm
  • 00:07:48.684 --> 00:07:53.456
  • Grateful for the opportunity, but i want to encourage you to
  • 00:07:53.456 --> 00:07:56.559
  • Find a community of people.
  • 00:07:56.559 --> 00:08:00.129
  • It's not just my imagination.
  • 00:08:00.129 --> 00:08:02.565
  • I just read it to you.
  • 00:08:02.565 --> 00:08:04.233
  • I'm gonna read it again.
  • 00:08:04.233 --> 00:08:05.668
  • "if we will continually walk in the light, as he is in the
  • 00:08:05.668 --> 00:08:08.304
  • Light, and if we will continue in fellowship with one another,
  • 00:08:08.304 --> 00:08:12.341
  • Then the blood of jesus will continually cleanse us from
  • 00:08:12.341 --> 00:08:15.077
  • All sin."
  • 00:08:15.077 --> 00:08:17.079
  • Now, let me caution you.
  • 00:08:17.079 --> 00:08:18.414
  • Somebody say, "well, i don't believe that."
  • 00:08:18.414 --> 00:08:25.955
  • I appreciate that god has given us free choice, but a part of
  • 00:08:25.955 --> 00:08:30.059
  • Learning to live out discipleship is to submit to the
  • 00:08:30.059 --> 00:08:33.396
  • Authority of scripture.
  • 00:08:33.396 --> 00:08:35.264
  • For far too long in the contemporary church, we have
  • 00:08:35.264 --> 00:08:37.867
  • Been told we can stand apart from scripture and we can
  • 00:08:37.867 --> 00:08:40.937
  • Judge it.
  • 00:08:40.937 --> 00:08:42.872
  • I want to invite you to a different posture.
  • 00:08:42.872 --> 00:08:45.474
  • When you read your bible, let it judge you.
  • 00:08:45.474 --> 00:08:48.544
  • Let it evaluate you and your behavior.
  • 00:08:48.544 --> 00:08:52.381
  • Sometimes it's uncomfortable, sometimes it's even unpleasant,
  • 00:08:52.381 --> 00:08:56.419
  • But if you will let the word of god read you while you read it,
  • 00:08:56.419 --> 00:09:00.389
  • It will change completely the trajectory of your life.
  • 00:09:00.389 --> 00:09:05.161
  • It'll bring the power of god to bear in your life.
  • 00:09:05.161 --> 00:09:08.864
  • It'll move you from a theoretical christianity to a
  • 00:09:08.864 --> 00:09:11.934
  • Transformed experience.
  • 00:09:11.934 --> 00:09:14.770
  • So the proclamation from that is the blood of jesus christ, god's
  • 00:09:14.770 --> 00:09:18.274
  • Son, continually cleanses me from all sin.
  • 00:09:18.274 --> 00:09:23.212
  • Now, the assumption in that, and i know the fallacy of that, is
  • 00:09:23.212 --> 00:09:26.849
  • That we are walking in the light and we are
  • 00:09:26.849 --> 00:09:29.318
  • Maintaining fellowship.
  • 00:09:29.318 --> 00:09:31.387
  • But can we make that sentence a proclamation together?
  • 00:09:31.387 --> 00:09:34.757
  • "the blood of jesus christ, god's son, continually cleanses
  • 00:09:34.757 --> 00:09:39.996
  • Me from all sin."
  • 00:09:39.996 --> 00:09:42.264
  • Now look at romans 5:9, "much more then, being now justified
  • 00:09:42.264 --> 00:09:46.435
  • By his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him."
  • 00:09:46.435 --> 00:09:52.642
  • If you're doing the bible reading with us, we're in the
  • 00:09:52.642 --> 00:09:55.244
  • Book of revelation right now.
  • 00:09:55.244 --> 00:09:56.579
  • Pretty intimidating book, huh?
  • 00:09:56.579 --> 00:09:59.915
  • You know, the gospels introduce us to jesus, the lamb of god who
  • 00:09:59.915 --> 00:10:03.085
  • Takes away the sin of the world.
  • 00:10:03.085 --> 00:10:05.154
  • The book of revelation introduces us to jesus, the
  • 00:10:05.154 --> 00:10:07.556
  • Conquering king, returning to the earth for his people with
  • 00:10:07.556 --> 00:10:11.494
  • Judgment for the nations.
  • 00:10:11.494 --> 00:10:15.364
  • You wanna be an early adopter and be jesus's friend before the
  • 00:10:15.364 --> 00:10:18.634
  • Scenes of revelation start to play out.
  • 00:10:18.634 --> 00:10:22.104
  • Amen, pastor.
  • 00:10:22.104 --> 00:10:24.674
  • And that verse in romans tells us that we can be saved from the
  • 00:10:24.674 --> 00:10:28.511
  • Wrath of god.
  • 00:10:28.511 --> 00:10:30.646
  • You know, i'm a bit amused.
  • 00:10:30.646 --> 00:10:31.981
  • I meet christians pretty frequently they say, you know,
  • 00:10:31.981 --> 00:10:34.684
  • That they don't like to read the old testament.
  • 00:10:34.684 --> 00:10:38.521
  • And their attitude seems to be that the god of the new
  • 00:10:38.521 --> 00:10:40.656
  • Testament is different.
  • 00:10:40.656 --> 00:10:43.325
  • It's like he got some gummies after he finished malachi and
  • 00:10:43.325 --> 00:10:46.929
  • He's chill.
  • 00:10:46.929 --> 00:10:50.066
  • Just a little laid back.
  • 00:10:50.066 --> 00:10:53.436
  • That's really bad theology, folks.
  • 00:10:53.436 --> 00:10:55.337
  • My bible says god said, "i don't change."
  • 00:10:55.337 --> 00:10:59.108
  • And i assure you that the god of the old testament, the god of
  • 00:10:59.108 --> 00:11:01.977
  • The hebrew bible, is the same god that walks through the pages
  • 00:11:01.977 --> 00:11:05.214
  • Of the new testament.
  • 00:11:05.214 --> 00:11:07.116
  • It's the same spirit of god that's moving in the earth today
  • 00:11:07.116 --> 00:11:09.852
  • That moved in jerusalem when the babylonians came and besieged
  • 00:11:09.852 --> 00:11:12.722
  • The city.
  • 00:11:12.722 --> 00:11:15.091
  • It's the same spirit of god in us that brought jesus out of
  • 00:11:15.091 --> 00:11:19.261
  • The grave.
  • 00:11:19.261 --> 00:11:21.230
  • And it says that we can be justified by his blood.
  • 00:11:21.230 --> 00:11:25.968
  • Justified or justification is something of a technical term in
  • 00:11:25.968 --> 00:11:30.506
  • The new testament.
  • 00:11:30.506 --> 00:11:31.841
  • To be justified is to be acquitted.
  • 00:11:31.841 --> 00:11:35.111
  • It's to be declared not guilty.
  • 00:11:35.111 --> 00:11:38.547
  • It's more than just being forgiven.
  • 00:11:38.547 --> 00:11:41.484
  • It's having your record expunged.
  • 00:11:41.484 --> 00:11:44.487
  • When we understand that we've been justified, you know, it
  • 00:11:44.487 --> 00:11:48.891
  • Changes our standing before almighty god.
  • 00:11:48.891 --> 00:11:54.663
  • Allen: so many of you send us messages: letters, emails, notes
  • 00:11:58.868 --> 00:12:02.204
  • In a variety of formats saying thank you for the ministry for
  • 00:12:02.204 --> 00:12:05.241
  • Willing to speak the truth into culture in this rather
  • 00:12:05.241 --> 00:12:08.844
  • Tumultuous season.
  • 00:12:08.844 --> 00:12:10.613
  • Well, i hear your feedback and it's very valuable.
  • 00:12:10.613 --> 00:12:13.015
  • The question i'm so often asked
  • 00:12:13.015 --> 00:12:14.416
  • Is, "i feel like we should do more.
  • 00:12:14.416 --> 00:12:15.751
  • What can we do? how do we do something?"
  • 00:12:15.751 --> 00:12:18.254
  • Clearly god is moving in the earth.
  • 00:12:18.254 --> 00:12:19.855
  • He's raising up voices of truth.
  • 00:12:19.855 --> 00:12:21.257
  • We're certainly not unique or alone in that, but there is
  • 00:12:21.257 --> 00:12:24.160
  • Something you could do that would help us.
  • 00:12:24.160 --> 00:12:26.295
  • Join us as a monthly ministry partner.
  • 00:12:26.295 --> 00:12:28.931
  • Our baseline for how we build our plans for next comes from
  • 00:12:28.931 --> 00:12:32.234
  • Those monthly partners.
  • 00:12:32.234 --> 00:12:33.803
  • Your gift of $25 or more enables us to imagine a
  • 00:12:33.803 --> 00:12:37.439
  • Different future.
  • 00:12:37.439 --> 00:12:38.841
  • So if god has blessed you through the ministry, i would
  • 00:12:38.841 --> 00:12:41.043
  • Ask you to make that simple investment in what's next, and
  • 00:12:41.043 --> 00:12:44.947
  • Together, we will join god in helping to spread the message of
  • 00:12:44.947 --> 00:12:48.317
  • A biblical worldview and its significance for our families,
  • 00:12:48.317 --> 00:12:51.253
  • Our communities, our nation, and for the body of christ
  • 00:12:51.253 --> 00:12:54.523
  • Throughout the earth.
  • 00:12:54.523 --> 00:12:55.858
  • Join us in that partnership, we'll share some unique learning
  • 00:12:55.858 --> 00:12:57.827
  • Opportunities with you, and together, we'll move with what
  • 00:12:57.827 --> 00:13:00.729
  • God is doing in the earth right now.
  • 00:13:00.729 --> 00:13:05.000
  • Allen: to be justified is to be made righteous, to be given the
  • 00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:10.105
  • Ability to stand in the presence of god without fear, guilt,
  • 00:13:10.105 --> 00:13:13.742
  • Or shame.
  • 00:13:13.742 --> 00:13:15.845
  • And you say impossible.
  • 00:13:15.845 --> 00:13:18.147
  • It's impossible for me to stand in the presence of god that way.
  • 00:13:18.147 --> 00:13:22.585
  • And i would agree it's impossible for me, it's an
  • 00:13:22.585 --> 00:13:24.587
  • Impossible for you, except for by faith in the blood of jesus.
  • 00:13:24.587 --> 00:13:31.393
  • He gave himself as a sacrifice.
  • 00:13:31.393 --> 00:13:33.662
  • Why do you think those men and women were so dramatically
  • 00:13:33.662 --> 00:13:36.465
  • Changed when they saw a resurrected jesus?
  • 00:13:36.465 --> 00:13:39.301
  • They'd seen him walk on the water, raise the dead, make wine
  • 00:13:39.301 --> 00:13:42.304
  • Out of water.
  • 00:13:42.304 --> 00:13:43.672
  • They'd seen him feed a multitude.
  • 00:13:43.672 --> 00:13:45.007
  • They knew he was miraculous, they knew he could heal, they
  • 00:13:45.007 --> 00:13:47.343
  • Knew he had authority over demons and wind and waves, but
  • 00:13:47.343 --> 00:13:50.713
  • When they saw him after the resurrection, they're never the
  • 00:13:50.713 --> 00:13:55.084
  • Same again.
  • 00:13:55.084 --> 00:13:58.153
  • See, i think we know jesus in a lot of ways.
  • 00:13:58.153 --> 00:14:00.055
  • We know him as a miracle worker, we may know him as a savior.
  • 00:14:00.055 --> 00:14:03.659
  • We may know he's forgiven us.
  • 00:14:03.659 --> 00:14:06.795
  • I wonder if we've really seen him as alive.
  • 00:14:06.795 --> 00:14:10.733
  • If we imagine that he joins us for our day,
  • 00:14:10.733 --> 00:14:14.837
  • That he's interested in our thoughts.
  • 00:14:14.837 --> 00:14:18.974
  • I wonder if we have the imagination that we can truly
  • 00:14:18.974 --> 00:14:21.844
  • Be justified.
  • 00:14:21.844 --> 00:14:23.379
  • That through the blood of jesus i am justified, made righteous,
  • 00:14:23.379 --> 00:14:27.983
  • Get this, just as if i'd never sinned.
  • 00:14:27.983 --> 00:14:32.354
  • People don't forget.
  • 00:14:32.354 --> 00:14:34.590
  • But if you looked up my record in heaven, there's not like a
  • 00:14:34.590 --> 00:14:38.427
  • Full length video of the worst chapters of allen, hallelujah.
  • 00:14:38.427 --> 00:14:46.068
  • Now we have to live that out in the world.
  • 00:14:46.068 --> 00:14:48.737
  • It doesn't expunge all the consequences for
  • 00:14:48.737 --> 00:14:50.973
  • Our ungodliness.
  • 00:14:50.973 --> 00:14:52.741
  • It doesn't remove the people that have been touched by our
  • 00:14:52.741 --> 00:14:55.210
  • Ungodly choices.
  • 00:14:55.210 --> 00:14:57.713
  • Those things still populate our lives and we have to overcome.
  • 00:14:57.713 --> 00:15:01.617
  • It takes courage and determination and humility and
  • 00:15:01.617 --> 00:15:04.453
  • Kindness and a generosity of spirit.
  • 00:15:04.453 --> 00:15:08.357
  • A willingness on our part to repent, to not only be forgiven,
  • 00:15:08.357 --> 00:15:12.261
  • But to forgive.
  • 00:15:12.261 --> 00:15:14.430
  • All of those things are a component.
  • 00:15:14.430 --> 00:15:15.965
  • We've walked with too much arrogance, too much hubris.
  • 00:15:15.965 --> 00:15:19.268
  • We've pointed at theological principles, but we haven't
  • 00:15:19.268 --> 00:15:22.705
  • Really chosen to live them out.
  • 00:15:22.705 --> 00:15:25.274
  • We can be justified through the blood of jesus, but then we have
  • 00:15:25.274 --> 00:15:29.044
  • To walk through this world with the humility that knows
  • 00:15:29.044 --> 00:15:31.747
  • Something that has been given to us that we didn't earn and we'll
  • 00:15:31.747 --> 00:15:35.384
  • Have to respond to people with a kindness and a gentleness
  • 00:15:35.384 --> 00:15:40.322
  • While they come to understand not only that they can be
  • 00:15:40.322 --> 00:15:42.992
  • Forgiven, but what's happened to us because it's unimaginable
  • 00:15:42.992 --> 00:15:46.128
  • For them.
  • 00:15:46.128 --> 00:15:49.765
  • It's unimaginable for them.
  • 00:15:49.765 --> 00:15:51.934
  • I wonder if we could make that statement together.
  • 00:15:51.934 --> 00:15:55.137
  • "through the blood of jesus i am justified, made righteous, just
  • 00:15:55.137 --> 00:16:00.476
  • As if i'd never sinned."
  • 00:16:00.476 --> 00:16:03.312
  • Then hebrews 13 expands it even more.
  • 00:16:03.312 --> 00:16:06.348
  • "jesus, that he might sanctify the people through his own
  • 00:16:06.348 --> 00:16:09.218
  • Blood, suffered outside the gate."
  • 00:16:09.218 --> 00:16:12.321
  • He was crucified outside the city.
  • 00:16:12.321 --> 00:16:16.725
  • It was a part of the shame and humiliation of what happened
  • 00:16:16.725 --> 00:16:19.194
  • To him.
  • 00:16:19.194 --> 00:16:20.562
  • And the author of hebrews tells us that he submitted himself to
  • 00:16:20.562 --> 00:16:23.132
  • That so that we might be sanctified.
  • 00:16:23.132 --> 00:16:25.267
  • That's another one of those religious words.
  • 00:16:25.267 --> 00:16:27.669
  • To be sanctified means to be set apart for the purposes of god.
  • 00:16:27.669 --> 00:16:32.674
  • Now, it takes some some significant determination to
  • 00:16:32.674 --> 00:16:36.011
  • Yield my purpose for my life to god's purpose for my life.
  • 00:16:36.011 --> 00:16:41.316
  • I've got some clarity on what i want.
  • 00:16:41.316 --> 00:16:44.086
  • What i want to achieve, what i want to become, how much i want,
  • 00:16:44.086 --> 00:16:47.022
  • This and that and the other.
  • 00:16:47.022 --> 00:16:48.390
  • To be willing to say, "god, not my will be done, but your will."
  • 00:16:48.390 --> 00:16:55.964
  • I have to pray that prayer regularly.
  • 00:16:55.964 --> 00:17:00.102
  • There's seldom a week that goes past where there's not some very
  • 00:17:00.102 --> 00:17:02.638
  • Real invitation put in front of me that looks pretty attractive
  • 00:17:02.638 --> 00:17:05.974
  • And i have to say, "god, is this what you want?
  • 00:17:05.974 --> 00:17:09.478
  • Is this what you intend?"
  • 00:17:09.478 --> 00:17:12.481
  • I'm not talking about your salvation.
  • 00:17:12.481 --> 00:17:14.216
  • I'm talking about your usefulness, your fruitfulness.
  • 00:17:14.216 --> 00:17:18.921
  • Are we willing to be sanctified?
  • 00:17:18.921 --> 00:17:20.456
  • Are you willing to have your entire life set apart for the
  • 00:17:20.456 --> 00:17:22.925
  • Purposes of god, or is somebody giving you a fractured gospel
  • 00:17:22.925 --> 00:17:26.395
  • That you think you can make a profession of faith and then
  • 00:17:26.395 --> 00:17:29.398
  • Compartmentalize your life and have a little church life and a
  • 00:17:29.398 --> 00:17:32.067
  • Group of church friends and a church vocabulary, but then
  • 00:17:32.067 --> 00:17:34.970
  • You've got another set of friends and another set of
  • 00:17:34.970 --> 00:17:37.072
  • Behaviors and another vocabulary.
  • 00:17:37.072 --> 00:17:39.007
  • Folks, that is deception.
  • 00:17:39.007 --> 00:17:43.745
  • And it's the reason the church is as anemic as it is today.
  • 00:17:43.745 --> 00:17:46.115
  • It's the reason the president of the united states, a political
  • 00:17:46.115 --> 00:17:49.284
  • Leader has to stand up and define marriage because the
  • 00:17:49.284 --> 00:17:51.854
  • Pulpits of the nation haven't had the courage to do so.
  • 00:17:51.854 --> 00:17:56.091
  • I'm grateful for a leader that will say it, but i'm ashamed
  • 00:17:56.091 --> 00:17:59.194
  • That it didn't begin, it didn't reverberate from the churches.
  • 00:17:59.194 --> 00:18:02.831
  • It should. it should.
  • 00:18:02.831 --> 00:18:06.835
  • So there's one more statement there.
  • 00:18:06.835 --> 00:18:08.303
  • "through the blood of jesus i'm sanctified, made holy,
  • 00:18:08.303 --> 00:18:10.739
  • Set apart to god."
  • 00:18:10.739 --> 00:18:12.074
  • Can we say it together?
  • 00:18:12.074 --> 00:18:14.409
  • "through the blood of jesus i am sanctified, made holy, set apart
  • 00:18:14.409 --> 00:18:19.314
  • To god."
  • 00:18:19.314 --> 00:18:20.682
  • All right, at the conclusion to this little tool kit has to do
  • 00:18:20.682 --> 00:18:25.053
  • With what is within us.
  • 00:18:25.053 --> 00:18:26.388
  • 1 corinthians 3:16 says, "do you not know?"
  • 00:18:26.388 --> 00:18:30.392
  • And when the bible says, "don't you know?"
  • 00:18:30.392 --> 00:18:31.860
  • You know the answer.
  • 00:18:31.860 --> 00:18:34.062
  • No, we really don't.
  • 00:18:34.062 --> 00:18:36.431
  • "don't you know that you yourselves are god's temple and
  • 00:18:36.431 --> 00:18:39.468
  • That god's spirit lives in you?"
  • 00:18:39.468 --> 00:18:41.837
  • We can have church outside because the spirit of god is
  • 00:18:41.837 --> 00:18:44.406
  • In us.
  • 00:18:44.406 --> 00:18:46.108
  • Spirit of god didn't dwell in the building, hallelujah.
  • 00:18:46.108 --> 00:18:50.646
  • I'm grateful for the buildings.
  • 00:18:50.646 --> 00:18:52.014
  • They represent something.
  • 00:18:52.014 --> 00:18:53.348
  • They give us a point of reverence, a point to give
  • 00:18:53.348 --> 00:18:56.018
  • Expression to our faith, they're tools, they're helpful, but you
  • 00:18:56.018 --> 00:18:59.488
  • And i are the temple of the living god.
  • 00:18:59.488 --> 00:19:01.523
  • The spirit of almighty god dwells in you if you're a
  • 00:19:01.523 --> 00:19:04.660
  • Christ follower.
  • 00:19:04.660 --> 00:19:06.195
  • It's unthinkable.
  • 00:19:06.195 --> 00:19:07.563
  • There's no other faith in the world that would make such
  • 00:19:07.563 --> 00:19:09.965
  • A claim.
  • 00:19:09.965 --> 00:19:11.333
  • It's unimaginable.
  • 00:19:11.333 --> 00:19:12.668
  • It's the great shift of the new testament and the shift of the
  • 00:19:12.668 --> 00:19:14.770
  • New covenant.
  • 00:19:14.770 --> 00:19:16.338
  • Look at 1 peter 1:18, says, "you know that it was not with
  • 00:19:16.338 --> 00:19:19.708
  • Perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed
  • 00:19:19.708 --> 00:19:23.445
  • From the empty way of life handed down to you from
  • 00:19:23.445 --> 00:19:26.315
  • Your forefathers."
  • 00:19:26.315 --> 00:19:27.683
  • Peter's not writing to a group of pagans.
  • 00:19:27.683 --> 00:19:30.319
  • He's not writing to a group of people that weren't familiar
  • 00:19:30.319 --> 00:19:32.788
  • With scripture.
  • 00:19:32.788 --> 00:19:34.122
  • He's writing to a group of people who lived under a
  • 00:19:34.122 --> 00:19:36.024
  • Covenant with god.
  • 00:19:36.024 --> 00:19:37.359
  • They celebrated religious holidays.
  • 00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:39.228
  • They read torah.
  • 00:19:39.228 --> 00:19:40.696
  • They celebrated--they kept kosher.
  • 00:19:40.696 --> 00:19:43.732
  • Their lives were filled with religious rules.
  • 00:19:43.732 --> 00:19:46.668
  • And he talked to them about an empty way of life, that they had
  • 00:19:46.668 --> 00:19:49.905
  • Been redeemed from keeping a set of rules.
  • 00:19:49.905 --> 00:19:54.343
  • Well, the new testament describes jesus literally
  • 00:19:54.343 --> 00:19:57.012
  • Walking into the slave market.
  • 00:19:57.012 --> 00:19:59.314
  • Slavery proliferated in rome.
  • 00:19:59.314 --> 00:20:02.117
  • In the roman empire in a public place, they would drive a spear
  • 00:20:02.117 --> 00:20:07.990
  • Into a beam or a wall and then they would stand somebody
  • 00:20:07.990 --> 00:20:10.926
  • Underneath the spear.
  • 00:20:10.926 --> 00:20:12.294
  • It was understood if you were in a public place beneath the
  • 00:20:12.294 --> 00:20:14.329
  • Spear, you're being sold as a slave.
  • 00:20:14.329 --> 00:20:17.699
  • And the new testament describes jesus walking into the slave
  • 00:20:17.699 --> 00:20:20.502
  • Market, and there we stand, most likely naked,
  • 00:20:20.502 --> 00:20:26.275
  • Under the leering gaze of the assembled people, and they're
  • 00:20:26.275 --> 00:20:29.311
  • Evaluating you, whether you have the strength to make
  • 00:20:29.311 --> 00:20:32.314
  • A contribution.
  • 00:20:32.314 --> 00:20:34.249
  • And the challenging part of this is if you're sold as a slave,
  • 00:20:34.249 --> 00:20:37.252
  • You may be sold as a slave for some noble purpose, but you may
  • 00:20:37.252 --> 00:20:40.589
  • Be sold as a slave for some very ignoble purpose as well.
  • 00:20:40.589 --> 00:20:44.693
  • You have no determination over your future.
  • 00:20:44.693 --> 00:20:49.798
  • It's the most humiliating of places.
  • 00:20:49.798 --> 00:20:52.501
  • And we're told that jesus walked into the slave market and said,
  • 00:20:52.501 --> 00:20:55.637
  • "i'll pay that price.
  • 00:20:55.637 --> 00:20:58.106
  • I'll redeem that individual.
  • 00:20:58.106 --> 00:21:00.876
  • I'll offer my blood, that they can be delivered from
  • 00:21:00.876 --> 00:21:03.912
  • That place."
  • 00:21:03.912 --> 00:21:05.347
  • Why do we serve jesus?
  • 00:21:05.347 --> 00:21:06.715
  • So we can go to heaven? no, no, no, no.
  • 00:21:06.715 --> 00:21:09.151
  • We serve jesus because he redeemed us from an empty way
  • 00:21:09.151 --> 00:21:12.921
  • Of life.
  • 00:21:12.921 --> 00:21:14.489
  • He paid a price to deliver us from the bondage of sin.
  • 00:21:14.489 --> 00:21:17.793
  • That's why there's no habit that has authority over you.
  • 00:21:17.793 --> 00:21:21.296
  • There's no habit that can maintain mastery over your life.
  • 00:21:21.296 --> 00:21:24.499
  • There's no dark chapter of your past that can define your future
  • 00:21:24.499 --> 00:21:28.737
  • Unless you give it the permission to do so.
  • 00:21:28.737 --> 00:21:32.507
  • There is a new authority in our lives.
  • 00:21:32.507 --> 00:21:35.143
  • We have been redeemed from an empty way of life.
  • 00:21:35.143 --> 00:21:38.180
  • There's no disappointment.
  • 00:21:38.180 --> 00:21:39.815
  • There's no expression of failure.
  • 00:21:39.815 --> 00:21:41.917
  • There's no unexplained circumstance.
  • 00:21:41.917 --> 00:21:44.720
  • There's no expression of evil that interrupts us.
  • 00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:47.622
  • All of those things are a part of the journey through time.
  • 00:21:47.622 --> 00:21:51.259
  • But we have good news through jesus.
  • 00:21:51.259 --> 00:21:53.061
  • It's why john in revelation 1, when he hears jesus's voice, his
  • 00:21:53.061 --> 00:21:57.466
  • Face is on the ground.
  • 00:21:57.466 --> 00:22:02.404
  • Folks, we need a revelation of jesus.
  • 00:22:02.404 --> 00:22:05.841
  • I'll read you those last three statements and then we're gonna
  • 00:22:05.841 --> 00:22:08.043
  • Say them together.
  • 00:22:08.043 --> 00:22:10.178
  • My body's a temple of the holy spirit redeemed cleansed by the
  • 00:22:10.178 --> 00:22:13.715
  • Blood of jesus.
  • 00:22:13.715 --> 00:22:15.450
  • Oh, i know i look like allen.
  • 00:22:15.450 --> 00:22:18.353
  • In case you didn't know, i'm actually a temple of the spirit
  • 00:22:18.353 --> 00:22:20.889
  • Of living god.
  • 00:22:20.889 --> 00:22:23.392
  • How's that possible?
  • 00:22:23.392 --> 00:22:25.227
  • Well, i've been redeemed and cleansed by the blood of jesus.
  • 00:22:25.227 --> 00:22:29.231
  • And here's the good news, it's possible for every person that
  • 00:22:29.231 --> 00:22:31.566
  • Will believe it.
  • 00:22:31.566 --> 00:22:33.468
  • Therefore, it's a summary word, means because of everything
  • 00:22:33.468 --> 00:22:35.704
  • We've said so far, satan has no place in me, no power over me
  • 00:22:35.704 --> 00:22:40.142
  • Through the blood of jesus.
  • 00:22:40.142 --> 00:22:42.244
  • Can we read those two sentences together?
  • 00:22:42.244 --> 00:22:45.046
  • "my body is the temple of the holy spirit, redeemed, cleansed
  • 00:22:45.046 --> 00:22:49.551
  • By the blood of jesus.
  • 00:22:49.551 --> 00:22:51.420
  • Therefore, satan has no place in me, no power over me, through
  • 00:22:51.420 --> 00:22:56.625
  • The blood of jesus."
  • 00:22:56.625 --> 00:22:58.393
  • Now, here's my suggestion.
  • 00:22:58.393 --> 00:23:00.162
  • If you're in a battle, maybe it's a physical battle, maybe
  • 00:23:00.162 --> 00:23:03.765
  • It's an emotional battle, maybe it's a battle with grief or
  • 00:23:03.765 --> 00:23:06.334
  • Disappointment or despair.
  • 00:23:06.334 --> 00:23:08.637
  • Maybe it's a battle you just need physical strength.
  • 00:23:08.637 --> 00:23:10.906
  • You're in a really--a season where the demands on your life
  • 00:23:10.906 --> 00:23:13.875
  • Are overwhelming and you need the help of almighty god to
  • 00:23:13.875 --> 00:23:16.511
  • Navigate a course.
  • 00:23:16.511 --> 00:23:18.013
  • The needs will be as diverse as we are people.
  • 00:23:18.013 --> 00:23:21.349
  • But god's provision is complete, entire, and irreversible, and
  • 00:23:21.349 --> 00:23:25.954
  • It's made available to us by faith in the blood of jesus.
  • 00:23:25.954 --> 00:23:31.526
  • So i would suggest if you're in one of those places and you
  • 00:23:31.526 --> 00:23:34.563
  • Understand it, that you take those simple phrases that i put
  • 00:23:34.563 --> 00:23:37.899
  • On your outline in bold print and you say them morning, noon,
  • 00:23:37.899 --> 00:23:43.104
  • And in the evening.
  • 00:23:43.104 --> 00:23:44.673
  • I would make it my spiritual medicine.
  • 00:23:44.673 --> 00:23:48.043
  • It would be my declaration of what the word of god says about
  • 00:23:48.043 --> 00:23:51.346
  • Me every day.
  • 00:23:51.346 --> 00:23:53.114
  • I'm not telling you it'll change your circumstances in the first
  • 00:23:53.114 --> 00:23:55.417
  • 30 minutes or even the first 30 days, but i can tell you i have
  • 00:23:55.417 --> 00:24:00.856
  • Lived with this, and i have seen the faithfulness of god in my
  • 00:24:00.856 --> 00:24:05.293
  • Life, in the lives of countless other people.
  • 00:24:05.293 --> 00:24:08.864
  • Now, i'll give you a cautionary note.
  • 00:24:08.864 --> 00:24:11.299
  • God seldom resolves the challenges that i see in the way
  • 00:24:11.299 --> 00:24:15.504
  • That i would have resolved them.
  • 00:24:15.504 --> 00:24:21.276
  • I know you're probably not surprised that god's smarter
  • 00:24:21.276 --> 00:24:23.678
  • Than me, but it shocks me week after week after week.
  • 00:24:23.678 --> 00:24:28.483
  • But i can tell you god has been faithful in responding to those
  • 00:24:28.483 --> 00:24:32.888
  • Prayers when i'm willing to believe what he said about me.
  • 00:24:32.888 --> 00:24:37.392
  • I wonder if we could close by making those statements that are
  • 00:24:37.392 --> 00:24:39.761
  • In bold in your outlines together.
  • 00:24:39.761 --> 00:24:42.230
  • You think you could do that?
  • 00:24:42.230 --> 00:24:44.266
  • Can we stand for that?
  • 00:24:44.266 --> 00:24:52.807
  • I didn't have enough room to consolidate it on your outlines,
  • 00:24:52.807 --> 00:24:55.510
  • So you're gonna have to be like piece of cake.
  • 00:24:55.510 --> 00:25:04.686
  • You're ready?
  • 00:25:04.686 --> 00:25:06.955
  • "i testify to what the word of god says the blood of jesus does
  • 00:25:06.955 --> 00:25:11.626
  • For me; through the blood of jesus, i am redeemed out of the
  • 00:25:11.626 --> 00:25:16.298
  • Hand of the devil; through the blood of jesus, all my sins are
  • 00:25:16.298 --> 00:25:21.436
  • Forgiven; the blood of jesus christ, god's son, continually
  • 00:25:21.436 --> 00:25:27.108
  • Cleanses me from all sin; through the blood of jesus i am
  • 00:25:27.108 --> 00:25:32.514
  • Justified, made righteous, just as if i'd never sinned.
  • 00:25:32.514 --> 00:25:37.953
  • Through the blood of jesus i am sanctified, made holy, set apart
  • 00:25:37.953 --> 00:25:43.792
  • To god; my body is a temple of the holy spirit, redeemed,
  • 00:25:43.792 --> 00:25:50.065
  • Cleansed by the blood of jesus; therefore, satan has no place in
  • 00:25:50.065 --> 00:25:56.004
  • Me, no power over me, through the blood of jesus."
  • 00:25:56.004 --> 00:26:01.276
  • Amen, hallelujah.
  • 00:26:01.276 --> 00:26:04.346
  • Now you've got a powerful tool at your disposal, but you'll
  • 00:26:04.346 --> 00:26:08.717
  • Have to use it in order for the benefit to come to your life.
  • 00:26:08.717 --> 00:26:12.721
  • Allen: you know, on behalf of the whole team that makes the
  • 00:26:12.721 --> 00:26:14.990
  • Content from allen jackson ministries possible,
  • 00:26:14.990 --> 00:26:17.025
  • I wanna say thank you.
  • 00:26:17.025 --> 00:26:18.360
  • Actually standing in three crosses sanctuary, this is where
  • 00:26:18.360 --> 00:26:20.695
  • We do most of our live services, but from these places, this team
  • 00:26:20.695 --> 00:26:24.966
  • Of people creates all the content you see so frequently
  • 00:26:24.966 --> 00:26:27.769
  • Across a variety of platforms.
  • 00:26:27.769 --> 00:26:30.038
  • And you're so gracious, the messages you send, the notes,
  • 00:26:30.038 --> 00:26:32.574
  • The emails, the text, the letters you send are an
  • 00:26:32.574 --> 00:26:35.710
  • Enormous encouragement.
  • 00:26:35.710 --> 00:26:37.045
  • The question we're asked most frequently is, "how can
  • 00:26:37.045 --> 00:26:39.047
  • You pray?
  • 00:26:39.047 --> 00:26:40.415
  • And is there anything you can do to help as we spread the truth?"
  • 00:26:40.415 --> 00:26:43.351
  • And candidly, there is.
  • 00:26:43.351 --> 00:26:45.186
  • Join us as a monthly ministry partner.
  • 00:26:45.186 --> 00:26:47.889
  • For your gift of $25 or more on a monthly basis, you enable us
  • 00:26:47.889 --> 00:26:52.093
  • To take these messages and to share them across
  • 00:26:52.093 --> 00:26:55.096
  • A variety of platforms.
  • 00:26:55.096 --> 00:26:56.431
  • We do our planning based on the strength of participation from
  • 00:26:56.431 --> 00:27:00.168
  • Those monthly ministry partners.
  • 00:27:00.168 --> 00:27:02.370
  • So if you'll join us in that, we can multiply this ministry.
  • 00:27:02.370 --> 00:27:06.574
  • God is moving in the earth.
  • 00:27:06.574 --> 00:27:07.942
  • We are honored to stand with you and lifting
  • 00:27:07.942 --> 00:27:09.544
  • Up the name of jesus.
