  • Creflo: 2 corinthians chapter 3, verse 6, we'll start off in nlt.
  • 00:01:44.384 --> 00:01:50.390
  • We're gonna continue this series on the holy spirit and today
  • 00:01:50.390 --> 00:01:54.294
  • We're gonna talk about the holy spirit and grace, i mean, how do
  • 00:01:54.294 --> 00:01:58.231
  • They flow together?
  • 00:01:58.231 --> 00:02:00.900
  • This series has been really trying to help us to identify
  • 00:02:00.900 --> 00:02:06.105
  • The holy spirit and he is--how necessary it is for the new
  • 00:02:06.105 --> 00:02:10.944
  • Covenant to be manifested in our lives.
  • 00:02:10.944 --> 00:02:15.615
  • We are governed by the holy spirit of grace and we live a
  • 00:02:15.615 --> 00:02:19.919
  • Spirit-led grace life.
  • 00:02:19.919 --> 00:02:22.322
  • But if you think you're just going to be educated about the
  • 00:02:22.322 --> 00:02:25.024
  • Gospel of grace or about this new covenant and that you're
  • 00:02:25.024 --> 00:02:29.229
  • Gonna begin to walk and reap in those things without the holy
  • 00:02:29.229 --> 00:02:32.265
  • Spirit, that's just not how it's supposed to work.
  • 00:02:32.265 --> 00:02:35.301
  • Because under the law, rules were supposed to administer
  • 00:02:35.301 --> 00:02:42.375
  • Morality, but it failed miserably.
  • 00:02:42.375 --> 00:02:46.212
  • And we have to understand that the holy spirit is the one who
  • 00:02:46.212 --> 00:02:50.416
  • Administers and administrates the new covenant.
  • 00:02:50.416 --> 00:02:56.189
  • Under the new covenant, if you're reading hebrews chapter
  • 00:02:56.189 --> 00:02:58.658
  • 8, just read the whole chapter, you see him laying out the new
  • 00:02:58.658 --> 00:03:02.895
  • Covenant and the whole time it's god saying, "i will, i will, i
  • 00:03:02.895 --> 00:03:08.034
  • Will, i will, i will."
  • 00:03:08.034 --> 00:03:10.303
  • I was like, wow, he's doing everything in this new covenant.
  • 00:03:10.303 --> 00:03:14.007
  • In fact, it's already done.
  • 00:03:14.007 --> 00:03:16.042
  • We only have one area where he has responsibility for us and it
  • 00:03:16.042 --> 00:03:19.946
  • Was to believe.
  • 00:03:19.946 --> 00:03:22.282
  • And when you mix this with the old testament, you're just
  • 00:03:22.282 --> 00:03:26.519
  • Constantly gonna be in a performance mode where you think
  • 00:03:26.519 --> 00:03:29.956
  • You gotta do something to get something.
  • 00:03:29.956 --> 00:03:31.624
  • So you're convinced you gotta be good in order for god to be good
  • 00:03:31.624 --> 00:03:34.294
  • To you, wrong.
  • 00:03:34.294 --> 00:03:36.095
  • You're convinced that you got to do something in order to get
  • 00:03:36.095 --> 00:03:38.631
  • Something from god, that's dead works.
  • 00:03:38.631 --> 00:03:40.967
  • Under the new covenant, it is all about what jesus has done
  • 00:03:40.967 --> 00:03:45.171
  • And you believe it.
  • 00:03:45.171 --> 00:03:46.873
  • For example, hebrews chapter 8 and 12 says, he says, "i will be
  • 00:03:46.873 --> 00:03:50.576
  • Merciful to all of your sins and all of your wickedness and
  • 00:03:50.576 --> 00:03:54.580
  • Unrighteousness i will remember no more."
  • 00:03:54.580 --> 00:03:57.417
  • Well, that's what he said, that's what he did, and then he
  • 00:03:57.417 --> 00:03:59.986
  • Says, "i just need you to believe that because if you
  • 00:03:59.986 --> 00:04:02.055
  • Don't believe that," he says, "it's gonna be difficult for me
  • 00:04:02.055 --> 00:04:05.458
  • To write my laws on your heart and to write them in your mind."
  • 00:04:05.458 --> 00:04:09.662
  • If you don't believe that your sins are forgiven and that god
  • 00:04:09.662 --> 00:04:13.466
  • Is not treating you differently because you behaved a certain
  • 00:04:13.466 --> 00:04:16.502
  • Kind of way.
  • 00:04:16.502 --> 00:04:17.870
  • It's going all the way back to the garden of eden.
  • 00:04:17.870 --> 00:04:19.639
  • Adam and eve sinned and then they went and hid themselves
  • 00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:22.742
  • Because they thought god now sees them differently now that
  • 00:04:22.742 --> 00:04:27.080
  • They have sinned than before.
  • 00:04:27.080 --> 00:04:30.616
  • And god never saw adam and eve differently.
  • 00:04:30.616 --> 00:04:32.485
  • Adam and eve saw themselves differently.
  • 00:04:32.485 --> 00:04:34.887
  • And the same thing happens with us today.
  • 00:04:34.887 --> 00:04:36.856
  • When you misbehave and sin, god is never gonna change how he
  • 00:04:36.856 --> 00:04:41.828
  • Sees you, but you will change how you see yourself.
  • 00:04:41.828 --> 00:04:45.365
  • And so what we've got to understand is if you don't
  • 00:04:45.365 --> 00:04:47.834
  • Believe that your sins have been forgiven, and if you don't
  • 00:04:47.834 --> 00:04:50.470
  • Believe that he has chosen to remember it no more, what is he
  • 00:04:50.470 --> 00:04:53.673
  • Gonna do?
  • 00:04:53.673 --> 00:04:55.041
  • How's he gonna handle the sin in your life except to get you to
  • 00:04:55.041 --> 00:04:57.276
  • Believe that he handled it?
  • 00:04:57.276 --> 00:04:59.078
  • Oh my god, did you hear what i just said?
  • 00:04:59.078 --> 00:05:00.913
  • How is he gonna handle the sin in your life so he can work on
  • 00:05:00.913 --> 00:05:04.417
  • Transforming your life if you don't believe
  • 00:05:04.417 --> 00:05:06.386
  • That he's handled it?
  • 00:05:06.386 --> 00:05:07.854
  • If you don't believe that you're forgiven and if you don't
  • 00:05:07.854 --> 00:05:09.522
  • Believe that he'll remember your sins no more, then he can't
  • 00:05:09.522 --> 00:05:12.125
  • Write on your heart, he can't write on your mind, and he
  • 00:05:12.125 --> 00:05:14.660
  • Cannot change your desires because you won't believe
  • 00:05:14.660 --> 00:05:17.263
  • Hebrews 8:12, that i have forgiven your sins, i'm merciful
  • 00:05:17.263 --> 00:05:20.867
  • To your sins, and i remember it no more.
  • 00:05:20.867 --> 00:05:24.103
  • The only person that's remembering your sins is you.
  • 00:05:24.103 --> 00:05:28.741
  • God said, i don't remember no more, but you remember what
  • 00:05:28.741 --> 00:05:30.843
  • Happened last night and 35 years ago.
  • 00:05:30.843 --> 00:05:34.647
  • So it's like, how am i gonna transform you?
  • 00:05:34.647 --> 00:05:37.417
  • Because under the new covenant, the transformation takes place
  • 00:05:37.417 --> 00:05:39.952
  • From the inside out.
  • 00:05:39.952 --> 00:05:42.588
  • Your behavior will change from the inside out.
  • 00:05:42.588 --> 00:05:45.491
  • Under the old testament, it was an outside in type of thing.
  • 00:05:45.491 --> 00:05:49.796
  • If you'll do these things and perform well, then it will
  • 00:05:49.796 --> 00:05:52.899
  • Change, but it's not.
  • 00:05:52.899 --> 00:05:54.700
  • You know, people are still misbehaving.
  • 00:05:54.700 --> 00:05:56.436
  • He knew that under the law, the law was not to perfect
  • 00:05:56.436 --> 00:05:59.572
  • Any change.
  • 00:05:59.572 --> 00:06:00.907
  • The law was given to show you what was wrong with you.
  • 00:06:00.907 --> 00:06:02.975
  • He was given to show you what sin was.
  • 00:06:02.975 --> 00:06:04.844
  • He was given to show you how you needed a savior.
  • 00:06:04.844 --> 00:06:07.113
  • And we in religion keep pumping this thing, pumping this thing,
  • 00:06:07.113 --> 00:06:11.050
  • And people live all their lives fearing to die.
  • 00:06:11.050 --> 00:06:17.857
  • Unsaved people have less fear at death than saved people do.
  • 00:06:17.857 --> 00:06:23.629
  • Even though you got born again, you still don't believe that
  • 00:06:23.629 --> 00:06:26.332
  • You're actually gonna really make it.
  • 00:06:26.332 --> 00:06:27.900
  • Ninety nine and a half won't do.
  • 00:06:27.900 --> 00:06:32.939
  • I don't know where that came from, but.
  • 00:06:32.939 --> 00:06:34.440
  • Are you listening to me now?
  • 00:06:37.443 --> 00:06:39.545
  • So the holy spirit is the administrator of this
  • 00:06:39.545 --> 00:06:43.549
  • New covenant.
  • 00:06:43.549 --> 00:06:44.884
  • Now before i start, i wanna show you some things about his
  • 00:06:44.884 --> 00:06:47.386
  • Finished works and then how to work with him.
  • 00:06:47.386 --> 00:06:49.789
  • Let's just go through some scripture.
  • 00:06:49.789 --> 00:06:51.858
  • I wanna just show you the two translations and try to get some
  • 00:06:51.858 --> 00:06:55.995
  • More on the inside of you, some standout scriptures concerning
  • 00:06:55.995 --> 00:06:59.966
  • The spirit of grace and how he operates.
  • 00:06:59.966 --> 00:07:01.567
  • Look at 2 corinthians chapter 3 and 6 in the nlt.
  • 00:07:01.567 --> 00:07:04.504
  • He says, "he has enabled us," the holy spirit has enabled us,
  • 00:07:04.504 --> 00:07:09.842
  • "to be ministers of his new covenant.
  • 00:07:09.842 --> 00:07:14.113
  • This is a covenant not of written laws, but of the spirit.
  • 00:07:14.113 --> 00:07:19.785
  • The old written covenant ends in death; but under the new
  • 00:07:19.785 --> 00:07:25.892
  • Covenant, the spirit gives life."
  • 00:07:25.892 --> 00:07:28.494
  • So you can plainly see here, he makes a distinction between one
  • 00:07:28.494 --> 00:07:32.498
  • Agreement and another agreement, okay?
  • 00:07:32.498 --> 00:07:35.701
  • We who are mostly gentiles or human beings have been called to
  • 00:07:35.701 --> 00:07:40.172
  • Live under this new agreement.
  • 00:07:40.172 --> 00:07:42.408
  • And so one of the things we see here is that this makes it clear
  • 00:07:42.408 --> 00:07:47.780
  • That the old covenant relied on external laws, but the new
  • 00:07:47.780 --> 00:07:52.752
  • Covenant is all about the spirit giving us life from within.
  • 00:07:52.752 --> 00:07:58.157
  • The holy ghost is transforming you from within.
  • 00:07:58.157 --> 00:08:02.695
  • The bible says philippians 2, that he is working in you to
  • 00:08:02.695 --> 00:08:07.266
  • Give you the desire and the power to do what pleases him.
  • 00:08:07.266 --> 00:08:11.671
  • That's a holy ghost thing.
  • 00:08:11.671 --> 00:08:13.606
  • All you got to do is believe in god and he's working in you.
  • 00:08:13.606 --> 00:08:16.976
  • There's stuff you used to do that you don't wanna do no more
  • 00:08:16.976 --> 00:08:20.613
  • And you can't, you don't really understand why it's like that.
  • 00:08:20.613 --> 00:08:23.649
  • He has changed your desire.
  • 00:08:23.649 --> 00:08:25.484
  • No, but you wanna be religious and go and set up five different
  • 00:08:25.484 --> 00:08:29.288
  • Things you need to do every day to try to change and you're
  • 00:08:29.288 --> 00:08:32.258
  • Worst off.
  • 00:08:32.258 --> 00:08:33.793
  • You're cussing more than you ever thought, more than you ever
  • 00:08:33.793 --> 00:08:36.028
  • Cussed before.
  • 00:08:36.028 --> 00:08:37.463
  • Because this new covenant is about an inward change
  • 00:08:37.463 --> 00:08:39.999
  • From inside out.
  • 00:08:39.999 --> 00:08:42.101
  • Now let's look at 2 corinthians 3:6 in the mirror translation.
  • 00:08:42.101 --> 00:08:45.871
  • Let's go through a word.
  • 00:08:45.871 --> 00:08:47.239
  • He says, "it is god's signature in our spirit that authorizes
  • 00:08:47.239 --> 00:08:53.312
  • New testament ministry."
  • 00:08:53.312 --> 00:08:55.281
  • The signature, "it is god's signature in our spirits that
  • 00:08:55.281 --> 00:08:59.552
  • Authorizes the new testament ministry.
  • 00:08:59.552 --> 00:09:02.488
  • We are not qualified by a legal document endorsed by a
  • 00:09:02.488 --> 00:09:07.660
  • Fellow human."
  • 00:09:07.660 --> 00:09:10.630
  • He says, "the letter [of the law]
  • 00:09:10.630 --> 00:09:13.466
  • Is the administration of death; it is the spirit [of grace]
  • 00:09:13.466 --> 00:09:18.904
  • That quickens life."
  • 00:09:18.904 --> 00:09:21.707
  • It's the spirit of grace that gives life.
  • 00:09:21.707 --> 00:09:24.310
  • This is something where you gonna have to believe in a holy
  • 00:09:24.310 --> 00:09:28.047
  • Ghost you can't see with your physical eyes.
  • 00:09:28.047 --> 00:09:31.684
  • You're gonna have to believe in this new covenant that says, the
  • 00:09:31.684 --> 00:09:34.920
  • Day you accepted him, the spirit of god moved on inside of you.
  • 00:09:34.920 --> 00:09:38.791
  • Why?
  • 00:09:38.791 --> 00:09:40.159
  • 'cause he's going to work on the inside of you.
  • 00:09:40.159 --> 00:09:41.627
  • He's working in you right now.
  • 00:09:41.627 --> 00:09:44.497
  • I may be speaking these words you're hearing me say, but
  • 00:09:44.497 --> 00:09:47.833
  • You're gonna probably start hearing some words that didn't
  • 00:09:47.833 --> 00:09:50.236
  • Come out of my mouth.
  • 00:09:50.236 --> 00:09:51.604
  • Why?
  • 00:09:51.604 --> 00:09:52.938
  • He working in you.
  • 00:09:52.938 --> 00:09:54.306
  • He bringing up things in your life, you recalling stuff, you
  • 00:09:54.306 --> 00:09:57.143
  • Applying things, you seeing your own examples.
  • 00:09:57.143 --> 00:10:00.413
  • The holy spirit is working in you to make a difference and to
  • 00:10:00.413 --> 00:10:04.150
  • Change your life.
  • 00:10:04.150 --> 00:10:05.484
  • Now, let's look at romans chapter 8 and 2.
  • 00:10:05.484 --> 00:10:07.219
  • Let's go to the nlt there.
  • 00:10:07.219 --> 00:10:09.855
  • See what he says here.
  • 00:10:09.855 --> 00:10:11.223
  • All of this is spirit administered.
  • 00:10:11.223 --> 00:10:14.493
  • Spirit administered.
  • 00:10:14.493 --> 00:10:17.430
  • Verse 2, he says, "and because you belong to him, the power of
  • 00:10:17.430 --> 00:10:22.101
  • The life-giving spirit has freed you from the power of sin that
  • 00:10:22.101 --> 00:10:27.673
  • Leads to death."
  • 00:10:27.673 --> 00:10:29.075
  • There's nothing about what you did to make that happen.
  • 00:10:29.075 --> 00:10:32.545
  • He said, "the power of the life-giving spirit has freed you
  • 00:10:32.545 --> 00:10:35.681
  • From the power of sin that leads to death."
  • 00:10:35.681 --> 00:10:39.251
  • The holy spirit freed you from the power of sin.
  • 00:10:39.251 --> 00:10:42.722
  • The holy spirit did this.
  • 00:10:42.722 --> 00:10:44.990
  • We can't ignore the holy spirit in exchange for what our
  • 00:10:44.990 --> 00:10:49.528
  • Intellect can learn about the bible.
  • 00:10:49.528 --> 00:10:53.032
  • We've got to constantly be aware and embrace the holy spirit for
  • 00:10:53.032 --> 00:10:58.904
  • The changes that come in our lives.
  • 00:10:58.904 --> 00:11:01.874
  • And when we do that, we see things happen.
  • 00:11:01.874 --> 00:11:04.143
  • The holy spirit is the law of life now.
  • 00:11:04.143 --> 00:11:07.713
  • Praise god.
  • 00:11:07.713 --> 00:11:09.081
  • It's replacing the old system of trying to be righteous through
  • 00:11:09.081 --> 00:11:12.485
  • Your self effort.
  • 00:11:12.485 --> 00:11:13.853
  • Under the law, the old system was, i'm gonna be righteous
  • 00:11:13.853 --> 00:11:17.156
  • Through my self-effort.
  • 00:11:17.156 --> 00:11:19.024
  • And he is saying, no, the holy spirit has replaced that.
  • 00:11:19.024 --> 00:11:21.627
  • He don't want your self effort, he don't want your performance,
  • 00:11:21.627 --> 00:11:24.864
  • He don't want your religion.
  • 00:11:24.864 --> 00:11:26.332
  • He just wants you to believe that he is who he says he is and
  • 00:11:26.332 --> 00:11:31.704
  • That when you got saved, he moved in you and he sets you
  • 00:11:31.704 --> 00:11:35.641
  • Free from the power of sin that leads to death.
  • 00:11:35.641 --> 00:11:40.246
  • Wow.
  • 00:11:40.246 --> 00:11:41.614
  • Look at this in the mirror translation, romans 8:2.
  • 00:11:41.614 --> 00:11:44.283
  • He says, "the law of the spirit is the liberating force of life
  • 00:11:44.283 --> 00:11:47.820
  • In christ."
  • 00:11:47.820 --> 00:11:49.188
  • Wow.
  • 00:11:49.188 --> 00:11:50.523
  • So if you're gonna be liberated from all of the condemnation,
  • 00:11:50.523 --> 00:11:53.592
  • The shame, the guilt, all of the stuff that comes through a
  • 00:11:53.592 --> 00:11:57.863
  • Performance-based covenant, it's not gonna be because of what
  • 00:11:57.863 --> 00:12:01.066
  • You do.
  • 00:12:01.066 --> 00:12:02.434
  • It's gonna be because of the spirit of grace.
  • 00:12:02.434 --> 00:12:05.104
  • And the law of the spirit is liberating force of life
  • 00:12:05.104 --> 00:12:08.040
  • In christ.
  • 00:12:08.040 --> 00:12:09.408
  • So now, where does this leave us?
  • 00:12:09.408 --> 00:12:10.743
  • "this leaves me with no further obligation to the law of sin
  • 00:12:10.743 --> 00:12:14.613
  • And death."
  • 00:12:14.613 --> 00:12:15.948
  • You are under no further obligation to the law of sin
  • 00:12:15.948 --> 00:12:20.219
  • And death.
  • 00:12:20.219 --> 00:12:21.554
  • You are free from it.
  • 00:12:21.554 --> 00:12:22.922
  • I do not understand--from pulpits around the world, we
  • 00:12:22.922 --> 00:12:26.458
  • Keep preaching the mosaic law like you are obligated to
  • 00:12:26.458 --> 00:12:31.230
  • Keep it.
  • 00:12:31.230 --> 00:12:32.565
  • Two things we learned in bible study in the last three weeks.
  • 00:12:32.565 --> 00:12:34.466
  • Number one, that the mosaic law was an agreement between god and
  • 00:12:34.466 --> 00:12:38.971
  • Jewish people.
  • 00:12:38.971 --> 00:12:41.373
  • And you gentiles showed up and you're trying to keep or get
  • 00:12:41.373 --> 00:12:45.244
  • Yourself involved in something that ain't none of your
  • 00:12:45.244 --> 00:12:47.880
  • Business, okay?
  • 00:12:47.880 --> 00:12:51.917
  • But anyway, he says, "the holy ghost is the liberating force
  • 00:12:51.917 --> 00:12:55.821
  • Of life.
  • 00:12:55.821 --> 00:12:57.656
  • This leaves me with no further obligation to the law of sin
  • 00:12:57.656 --> 00:13:00.926
  • And death.
  • 00:13:00.926 --> 00:13:02.294
  • Spirit has superseded the sin enslaved senses."
  • 00:13:02.294 --> 00:13:09.268
  • Your senses were enslaved by sin, which means you become sin
  • 00:13:09.268 --> 00:13:13.839
  • Conscious and sins on your mind all the time.
  • 00:13:13.839 --> 00:13:16.909
  • He says, "it superseded sin enslaved senses as the principal
  • 00:13:16.909 --> 00:13:20.946
  • Law of life."
  • 00:13:20.946 --> 00:13:22.281
  • So the principal law of our life is a law of spirit, the law of
  • 00:13:22.281 --> 00:13:26.151
  • The holy spirit, the law of the spirit of grace.
  • 00:13:26.151 --> 00:13:29.722
  • Praise god.
  • 00:13:29.722 --> 00:13:31.123
  • Now let's move on a little further here.
  • 00:13:31.123 --> 00:13:33.092
  • Romans 8:9 and 10.
  • 00:13:33.092 --> 00:13:36.095
  • Romans 8, verse 9 and 10, nlt first.
  • 00:13:36.095 --> 00:13:39.098
  • He says, "but you are not controlled by your
  • 00:13:39.098 --> 00:13:40.766
  • Sinful nature."
  • 00:13:40.766 --> 00:13:42.368
  • You are not controlled by your sinful nature.
  • 00:13:42.368 --> 00:13:45.304
  • Think about it.
  • 00:13:45.304 --> 00:13:46.672
  • When you got born again you have a new creation.
  • 00:13:46.672 --> 00:13:50.376
  • So one of the reasons you're not controlled by your sinful nature
  • 00:13:50.376 --> 00:13:52.578
  • 'cause it ain't there anymore.
  • 00:13:52.578 --> 00:13:54.680
  • But you do--you still have an unrenewed mind that's still
  • 00:13:54.680 --> 00:13:58.484
  • Being renewed and that's part of what we call the flesh, which
  • 00:13:58.484 --> 00:14:02.788
  • Has a desire to sin, but he says the new creation in you is much
  • 00:14:02.788 --> 00:14:07.126
  • Greater than the desire to sin, "but you are not controlled by
  • 00:14:07.126 --> 00:14:11.664
  • Your sinful nature.
  • 00:14:11.664 --> 00:14:13.032
  • You are controlled by the spirit if you have the spirit of god
  • 00:14:13.032 --> 00:14:16.201
  • Living in you."
  • 00:14:16.201 --> 00:14:17.536
  • And if you got born again, you have the spirit of god living
  • 00:14:17.536 --> 00:14:19.939
  • In you.
  • 00:14:19.939 --> 00:14:21.307
  • "(and remember that those who do not have the spirit of god
  • 00:14:21.307 --> 00:14:25.644
  • Living in them do not belong to him at all.)"
  • 00:14:25.644 --> 00:14:29.848
  • 'cause when you get born again, the spirit of god moves on the
  • 00:14:29.848 --> 00:14:32.885
  • Inside of you.
  • 00:14:32.885 --> 00:14:34.219
  • And the first thing he does is pour the love of god on the
  • 00:14:34.219 --> 00:14:37.489
  • Inside of you.
  • 00:14:37.489 --> 00:14:38.824
  • He starts working right away and all of a sudden you can love old
  • 00:14:38.824 --> 00:14:42.094
  • Jethro who broke your heart and you don't even know why you
  • 00:14:42.094 --> 00:14:44.296
  • Still love that joe.
  • 00:14:44.296 --> 00:14:45.631
  • And i ain't--i'm not talking about no crazy love, no, i'm
  • 00:14:45.631 --> 00:14:47.900
  • Talking about, you know, you're forgiving.
  • 00:14:47.900 --> 00:14:50.903
  • You have a heart to forgive him.
  • 00:14:50.903 --> 00:14:54.206
  • Because the spirit of god dwells in you.
  • 00:14:54.206 --> 00:14:56.275
  • Your character changes because the spirit of god dwells in you.
  • 00:14:56.275 --> 00:14:59.478
  • You're not mean like you used to be 'cause the spirit of god
  • 00:14:59.478 --> 00:15:01.580
  • Dwells in you.
  • 00:15:01.580 --> 00:15:02.915
  • Now this didn't happen like in one day, but this thing
  • 00:15:02.915 --> 00:15:04.917
  • Is transforming.
  • 00:15:04.917 --> 00:15:06.318
  • As you're taking the journey of the christian life, you are
  • 00:15:06.318 --> 00:15:08.887
  • Changing and it's by the spirit of god.
  • 00:15:08.887 --> 00:15:12.024
  • So instead of you taking the glory for it, give god the glory
  • 00:15:12.024 --> 00:15:14.827
  • For everything you notice about your new self, amen.
  • 00:15:14.827 --> 00:15:21.934
  • Verse 10.
  • 00:15:21.934 --> 00:15:23.302
  • "and christ lives within you."
  • 00:15:23.302 --> 00:15:25.004
  • Say this out loud, "christ lives in me."
  • 00:15:25.004 --> 00:15:27.806
  • "so even though your body will die because of sin, the spirit
  • 00:15:27.806 --> 00:15:32.411
  • Gives you life because you have been made right with god."
  • 00:15:32.411 --> 00:15:36.915
  • You've been made right with god and the spirit gives you life.
  • 00:15:36.915 --> 00:15:40.652
  • But you've got to embrace this.
  • 00:15:40.652 --> 00:15:42.087
  • This cannot be an intellectual exercise this morning.
  • 00:15:42.087 --> 00:15:47.559
  • This has got to be something that says, i believe this, i
  • 00:15:47.559 --> 00:15:50.295
  • Embrace this.
  • 00:15:50.295 --> 00:15:51.630
  • I have an unseen partner.
  • 00:15:51.630 --> 00:15:53.165
  • He's working on the inside of me.
  • 00:15:53.165 --> 00:15:54.867
  • I'm being transformed every day of my life.
  • 00:15:54.867 --> 00:15:58.370
  • There are things you don't wanna do no more and you don't know
  • 00:15:58.370 --> 00:16:00.773
  • Why you don't wanna do it no more.
  • 00:16:00.773 --> 00:16:02.408
  • Weed has gone out of your system.
  • 00:16:02.408 --> 00:16:05.310
  • And you thought you had to go to a special class to get delivered
  • 00:16:05.310 --> 00:16:08.113
  • From weed.
  • 00:16:08.113 --> 00:16:09.481
  • In fact, you went to a special class.
  • 00:16:09.481 --> 00:16:10.816
  • You got delivered for two or three months, but as soon as
  • 00:16:10.816 --> 00:16:13.285
  • Pressure came, you were smoking that doobie all over you.
  • 00:16:13.285 --> 00:16:15.721
  • I don't know if they call it a doobie anymore,
  • 00:16:15.721 --> 00:16:17.322
  • But you were smoking that thing all over again.
  • 00:16:17.322 --> 00:16:19.091
  • But i'm telling you the holy ghost can snatch that thing away
  • 00:16:19.091 --> 00:16:21.794
  • From you from the root, praise god, and you ain't gonna want it
  • 00:16:21.794 --> 00:16:24.863
  • No more.
  • 00:16:24.863 --> 00:16:26.231
  • The holy ghost will take your want-tos and give you some new
  • 00:16:26.231 --> 00:16:30.302
  • Want-tos, and then you ain't gonna want to do what you used
  • 00:16:30.302 --> 00:16:34.039
  • To do and this is the lord's doing.
  • 00:16:34.039 --> 00:16:36.642
  • Praise the lord.
  • 00:16:36.642 --> 00:16:38.110
  • Let him do it.
  • 00:16:38.110 --> 00:16:42.347
  • And there's still somebody in the body of christ that say,
  • 00:16:42.347 --> 00:16:44.349
  • "yeah, i understand all that, but what you do?"
  • 00:16:44.349 --> 00:16:47.252
  • You're so performance-based minded.
  • 00:16:47.252 --> 00:16:51.690
  • You're constantly trying to find out what you need to do without
  • 00:16:51.690 --> 00:16:54.660
  • Thanking god for what he's already done.
  • 00:16:54.660 --> 00:16:58.163
  • And that's why we've got to learn how to operate in these
  • 00:16:58.163 --> 00:17:00.499
  • Finished works, man, and see what the holy ghost has done
  • 00:17:00.499 --> 00:17:02.601
  • With these finished works.
  • 00:17:02.601 --> 00:17:03.969
  • Galatians 5:18.
  • 00:17:03.969 --> 00:17:05.804
  • New living and then--did i do the mirror on this one?
  • 00:17:05.804 --> 00:17:08.273
  • Let's do the mirror right quick on this one.
  • 00:17:08.273 --> 00:17:09.641
  • He says, "but you are not ruled by flesh-consciousness."
  • 00:17:09.641 --> 00:17:13.278
  • Say, "i'm not ruled by flesh consciousness."
  • 00:17:13.278 --> 00:17:16.882
  • So what is flesh-consciousness?
  • 00:17:16.882 --> 00:17:18.383
  • It's the law of works.
  • 00:17:18.383 --> 00:17:20.886
  • It's the guy that says, what do you do?
  • 00:17:20.886 --> 00:17:22.721
  • What do you do?
  • 00:17:22.721 --> 00:17:25.457
  • Because he doesn't think that it is settled without performance.
  • 00:17:24.089 --> 00:17:28.494
  • He thinks he's got to perform in order for that to be real.
  • 00:17:28.494 --> 00:17:32.197
  • He thinks he's got to perform in order for there to ever be
  • 00:17:32.197 --> 00:17:34.600
  • Any change.
  • 00:17:34.600 --> 00:17:36.201
  • God helps those who help themselves.
  • 00:17:36.201 --> 00:17:39.404
  • That is a lie.
  • 00:17:39.404 --> 00:17:40.973
  • God helps those who need help.
  • 00:17:40.973 --> 00:17:42.975
  • See that came from a performance-based mindset.
  • 00:17:46.979 --> 00:17:50.249
  • God helps those who helps themselves.
  • 00:17:50.249 --> 00:17:53.619
  • Now, your doing will come from the holy spirit.
  • 00:17:53.619 --> 00:17:57.890
  • The holy spirit, because he's in you, starts directing you
  • 00:17:57.890 --> 00:18:01.426
  • And starts leading you and starts guiding you.
  • 00:18:01.426 --> 00:18:03.795
  • But i'm talking about you coming up with the program for how to
  • 00:18:03.795 --> 00:18:07.432
  • Get what jesus has already done.
  • 00:18:07.432 --> 00:18:09.067
  • You're basically saying, "i'm gonna improve on what jesus has
  • 00:18:09.067 --> 00:18:12.004
  • Already done."
  • 00:18:12.004 --> 00:18:13.972
  • No, no, no, i believe the holy spirit lives on the inside
  • 00:18:13.972 --> 00:18:17.109
  • Of me.
  • 00:18:17.109 --> 00:18:18.443
  • Well, what do you do?
  • 00:18:18.443 --> 00:18:19.811
  • What do you do?
  • 00:18:19.811 --> 00:18:21.180
  • You do what he tell you to do.
  • 00:18:21.180 --> 00:18:22.514
  • A shadow of this is when jesus turned the water to wine.
  • 00:18:22.514 --> 00:18:24.483
  • And then jesus told, jesus's mother told the guys, "whatever
  • 00:18:24.483 --> 00:18:27.786
  • He tell you to do, do it."
  • 00:18:27.786 --> 00:18:29.888
  • All right?
  • 00:18:29.888 --> 00:18:31.256
  • And so they were waiting on, see what jesus had to do.
  • 00:18:31.256 --> 00:18:32.858
  • "go take the pots and fill it up with water and bring it back."
  • 00:18:32.858 --> 00:18:35.194
  • Do it.
  • 00:18:35.194 --> 00:18:36.528
  • Don't sit around here trying to come up with your own
  • 00:18:36.528 --> 00:18:38.063
  • Plan on doing.
  • 00:18:38.063 --> 00:18:39.431
  • Wait on the holy spirit.
  • 00:18:39.431 --> 00:18:40.899
  • He'll lead you and show you what to do.
  • 00:18:40.899 --> 00:18:42.701
  • "well, what if he don't say--what if he don't tell you
  • 00:18:42.701 --> 00:18:44.603
  • To do nothing?"
  • 00:18:44.603 --> 00:18:45.938
  • Do nothing.
  • 00:18:45.938 --> 00:18:50.008
  • We have to learn how to live the spirit life.
  • 00:18:50.008 --> 00:18:53.679
  • And the spirit life is not about performing so we can brag about
  • 00:18:53.679 --> 00:19:00.519
  • How it happened.
  • 00:19:00.519 --> 00:19:01.853
  • Now you don't see it as bragging, you see it
  • 00:19:01.853 --> 00:19:03.222
  • As testifying.
  • 00:19:03.222 --> 00:19:06.225
  • This is my testimony.
  • 00:19:06.225 --> 00:19:08.493
  • I fasted for five days and after i fasted, i prayed for three
  • 00:19:08.493 --> 00:19:12.631
  • Hours a day.
  • 00:19:12.631 --> 00:19:13.966
  • [speaking in tongues]
  • 00:19:13.966 --> 00:19:15.334
  • Ain't he good, y'all.
  • 00:19:15.334 --> 00:19:16.668
  • Now, you're trying to get people to give you the applause, but
  • 00:19:16.668 --> 00:19:20.305
  • When it's by the holy ghost and when it's by god and you didn't
  • 00:19:20.305 --> 00:19:23.942
  • Have nothing to do with it, there ain't gonna be no bragging
  • 00:19:23.942 --> 00:19:27.246
  • Unless you brag on the one that lives on the inside of you.
  • 00:19:27.246 --> 00:19:32.751
  • See, we think we're fooling people.
  • 00:19:32.751 --> 00:19:34.253
  • We do a lot of little weird stuff and ain't nobody
  • 00:19:34.253 --> 00:19:37.189
  • Confronted you about it like, you know, god said.
  • 00:19:37.189 --> 00:19:40.592
  • And he might not have said it, but i feel kind of funny telling
  • 00:19:40.592 --> 00:19:43.895
  • You that ain't god because you said god said.
  • 00:19:43.895 --> 00:19:48.333
  • Oh, we gonna deal with it just for a minute.
  • 00:19:48.333 --> 00:19:51.436
  • Just for a minute.
  • 00:19:51.436 --> 00:19:52.804
  • Because it's turned into a modern-day part of the christian
  • 00:19:52.804 --> 00:19:56.241
  • English language.
  • 00:19:56.241 --> 00:19:57.609
  • Well, god told me this and god told me this.
  • 00:19:57.609 --> 00:19:58.944
  • And then when we say it fail, we might not say nothing, but we
  • 00:19:58.944 --> 00:20:01.480
  • Say, "well, i thought you said god told you that."
  • 00:20:01.480 --> 00:20:03.482
  • You know what that really is when you're saying god said but
  • 00:20:06.618 --> 00:20:08.954
  • He really didn't say it, but you're saying god said?
  • 00:20:08.954 --> 00:20:10.522
  • It's manipulation.
  • 00:20:10.522 --> 00:20:11.923
  • It's manipulation.
  • 00:20:14.960 --> 00:20:17.329
  • It's on the same level as witchcraft.
  • 00:20:17.329 --> 00:20:18.697
  • It's manipulation.
  • 00:20:18.697 --> 00:20:20.499
  • Because what am i supposed to say?
  • 00:20:20.499 --> 00:20:23.635
  • You're telling me god said, how am i supposed to respond
  • 00:20:23.635 --> 00:20:25.637
  • To that?
  • 00:20:25.637 --> 00:20:26.972
  • I mean, god said it.
  • 00:20:26.972 --> 00:20:30.108
  • So be it unto me to say he didn't see it.
  • 00:20:30.108 --> 00:20:37.349
  • And so for a long time, i would let people get away with that.
  • 00:20:37.349 --> 00:20:41.420
  • God said, god said.
  • 00:20:41.420 --> 00:20:42.788
  • You know what i do now?
  • 00:20:42.788 --> 00:20:44.122
  • When they say god said it, my head is like a computer, trying
  • 00:20:44.122 --> 00:20:46.291
  • To find that in the scripture somewhere.
  • 00:20:46.291 --> 00:20:49.194
  • Trying to find it in the context somewhere.
  • 00:20:49.194 --> 00:20:50.929
  • And when i don't see it in the context, i very freely say, "no,
  • 00:20:50.929 --> 00:20:54.633
  • He didn't."
  • 00:20:54.633 --> 00:20:56.902
  • And it ruffles feathers like how dare you say that god doesn't
  • 00:20:56.902 --> 00:21:02.908
  • Speak to me.
  • 00:21:02.908 --> 00:21:04.242
  • I said, "well, i'm saying it because ain't nothing you're
  • 00:21:04.242 --> 00:21:06.078
  • Doing matching what he already said."
  • 00:21:06.078 --> 00:21:11.516
  • And here's another thing.
  • 00:21:15.120 --> 00:21:16.488
  • "god told me to tell you you're my wife."
  • 00:21:16.488 --> 00:21:19.891
  • All right, that's easy.
  • 00:21:19.891 --> 00:21:21.259
  • If the mail is not in your mailbox, he didn't say it.
  • 00:21:21.259 --> 00:21:25.464
  • Take the little red thing, stick it up and tell him to forward it
  • 00:21:25.464 --> 00:21:27.666
  • On down the line somewhere because that doesn't belong
  • 00:21:27.666 --> 00:21:30.235
  • To you.
  • 00:21:30.235 --> 00:21:31.570
  • These are these little holy ghost games we play because
  • 00:21:31.570 --> 00:21:33.939
  • We're really dealing with insecurity.
  • 00:21:33.939 --> 00:21:36.375
  • We're trying to impress you into believing us.
  • 00:21:36.375 --> 00:21:41.012
  • And god's simple.
  • 00:21:41.012 --> 00:21:42.347
  • He said, "my yoke is easy."
  • 00:21:42.347 --> 00:21:44.483
  • And we're trying to make god complicated.
  • 00:21:44.483 --> 00:21:46.885
  • "oh, i want you to know that i am a powerhouse in the spirit.
  • 00:21:46.885 --> 00:21:51.089
  • Oh, the lord says," so you think, oh, made it more.
  • 00:21:51.089 --> 00:21:55.861
  • "oh, god said," i'm thinking, "boy, that boy got gas
  • 00:21:55.861 --> 00:21:58.597
  • Or something.
  • 00:21:58.597 --> 00:21:59.931
  • What he moving?
  • 00:21:59.931 --> 00:22:01.299
  • What is going on?
  • 00:22:01.299 --> 00:22:02.667
  • What is going on?"
  • 00:22:02.667 --> 00:22:05.270
  • If you train yourself in deception and if you train
  • 00:22:05.270 --> 00:22:10.675
  • Yourself in the use of manipulation, you become a
  • 00:22:10.675 --> 00:22:14.646
  • Warlock or a witch.
  • 00:22:14.646 --> 00:22:17.082
  • Watch, and the spell only boomerangs back to your life.
  • 00:22:17.082 --> 00:22:21.052
  • You gotta stop that.
  • 00:22:24.489 --> 00:22:27.926
  • I'm cautious about how i say, god said.
  • 00:22:26.458 --> 00:22:32.764
  • And i try to change it up and say, "well, i felt impressed."
  • 00:22:32.764 --> 00:22:38.170
  • Now, don't be afraid now to miss it 'cause you have to miss it to
  • 00:22:38.170 --> 00:22:46.711
  • Make it sometimes.

  • Creflo: everything in god's kingdom works by faith.
  • 00:24:55.473 --> 00:24:59.444
  • Now i remember when taffi and i started giving, it was a painful
  • 00:24:59.444 --> 00:25:03.682
  • Thing to give because we didn't have much at all financially.
  • 00:25:03.682 --> 00:25:06.985
  • However, we made a decision to be givers and one of the most
  • 00:25:06.985 --> 00:25:11.456
  • Quoted scriptures in the bible is john 3:16, "god so loved the
  • 00:25:11.456 --> 00:25:15.594
  • World that he gave."
  • 00:25:15.594 --> 00:25:17.596
  • Therefore, as christians we give.
  • 00:25:17.596 --> 00:25:19.698
  • Our giving is an expression of our love.
  • 00:25:19.698 --> 00:25:23.034
  • And when you support creflo dollar ministries financially,
  • 00:25:23.034 --> 00:25:25.937
  • You are giving to our efforts to spread the gospel all over
  • 00:25:25.937 --> 00:25:29.441
  • The world.
  • 00:25:29.441 --> 00:25:30.809
  • And in addition to helping millions who are hurting and
  • 00:25:30.809 --> 00:25:33.745
  • Have vital physical needs, pray about what god would have you to
  • 00:25:33.745 --> 00:25:37.816
  • Sow at this time.
  • 00:25:37.816 --> 00:25:39.150

  • Of salvation.
  • 00:26:16.354 --> 00:26:17.756
  • Pray with me and just repeat after me, "heavenly father, i
  • 00:26:17.756 --> 00:26:21.426
  • Believe that jesus died for my sins.
  • 00:26:21.426 --> 00:26:24.229
  • I believe that jesus was the payment for my sins.
  • 00:26:24.229 --> 00:26:28.366
  • That he was the sin offering.
