  • Creflo: if you have your bibles, go with me to hebrews chapter
  • 00:01:48.454 --> 00:01:51.191
  • 10, verse 14.
  • 00:01:51.191 --> 00:01:53.693
  • We're gonna read that out of the king james and the mirror,
  • 00:01:53.693 --> 00:01:56.062
  • Hebrews 10:14.
  • 00:01:56.062 --> 00:01:58.831
  • Now, let me explain to you what we've been talking about.
  • 00:01:58.831 --> 00:02:02.135
  • Self-effort versus redeemed effort.
  • 00:02:02.135 --> 00:02:08.641
  • Now, under the old covenant, the bible has this, you know, two
  • 00:02:08.641 --> 00:02:14.380
  • Main covenants.
  • 00:02:14.380 --> 00:02:15.748
  • The old covenant of the law versus the new covenant of
  • 00:02:15.748 --> 00:02:20.653
  • Grace, all right?
  • 00:02:20.653 --> 00:02:22.755
  • And so, you see these things in the bible, you got the old
  • 00:02:22.755 --> 00:02:25.458
  • Testament and the new testament.
  • 00:02:25.458 --> 00:02:27.260
  • Now, here's the deal you gotta understand.
  • 00:02:27.260 --> 00:02:29.562
  • What may be true under the old covenant or agreement may not be
  • 00:02:29.562 --> 00:02:35.568
  • True under the new covenant or agreement.
  • 00:02:35.568 --> 00:02:39.072
  • But the old covenant, all of those scriptures speak
  • 00:02:39.072 --> 00:02:42.075
  • About jesus.
  • 00:02:42.075 --> 00:02:43.443
  • Jesus is the fulfillment of everything that was promised in
  • 00:02:43.443 --> 00:02:45.845
  • The old covenant.
  • 00:02:45.845 --> 00:02:47.180
  • When god made a covenant with abraham, jesus is the
  • 00:02:47.180 --> 00:02:50.850
  • Fulfillment of that covenant that god made with abraham.
  • 00:02:50.850 --> 00:02:55.288
  • But then we have this new covenant.
  • 00:02:55.288 --> 00:02:56.889
  • The bible calls it a better covenant where jesus has taken
  • 00:02:56.889 --> 00:03:02.195
  • Upon himself to do everything we could not do in that
  • 00:03:02.195 --> 00:03:07.834
  • Old agreement.
  • 00:03:07.834 --> 00:03:09.769
  • Jesus is our righteousness.
  • 00:03:09.769 --> 00:03:12.038
  • He is our redemption.
  • 00:03:12.038 --> 00:03:13.406
  • He is our holiness.
  • 00:03:13.406 --> 00:03:15.074
  • He is everything we'll ever need.
  • 00:03:15.074 --> 00:03:16.843
  • And the only thing he ask us to do is go ahead and believe it.
  • 00:03:16.843 --> 00:03:20.513
  • All right, so the problem is that sometimes when you don't
  • 00:03:20.513 --> 00:03:23.082
  • Know that under the new covenant, you're trying to do
  • 00:03:23.082 --> 00:03:26.085
  • What's already been done by jesus.
  • 00:03:26.085 --> 00:03:28.955
  • Under the old covenant, the bible says that none is
  • 00:03:28.955 --> 00:03:33.493
  • Righteous, no--none.
  • 00:03:33.493 --> 00:03:34.827
  • And in the old covenant it says righteousness is as a filthy rag
  • 00:03:34.827 --> 00:03:38.765
  • Because there was no man without jesus that could
  • 00:03:38.765 --> 00:03:41.501
  • Accomplish righteousness.
  • 00:03:41.501 --> 00:03:42.835
  • And jesus came over in the new covenant and says, "i'll just do
  • 00:03:42.835 --> 00:03:45.104
  • It for you.
  • 00:03:45.104 --> 00:03:46.439
  • I'll make--i'll do everything that you can't do."
  • 00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:49.542
  • So, righteousness is something he did you can't do.
  • 00:03:49.542 --> 00:03:53.613
  • He redeemed you.
  • 00:03:53.613 --> 00:03:55.081
  • You can't do it, he did it.
  • 00:03:55.081 --> 00:03:57.116
  • He sanctified you.
  • 00:03:57.116 --> 00:03:58.451
  • You can't do it, he did it.
  • 00:03:58.451 --> 00:04:00.720
  • The finished works of jesus is what we call already done.
  • 00:04:00.720 --> 00:04:05.958
  • Now, real quickly, just briefly from last week, under the old
  • 00:04:05.958 --> 00:04:09.862
  • Covenant, self-effort was the means of trying to
  • 00:04:09.862 --> 00:04:14.434
  • Become righteous.
  • 00:04:14.434 --> 00:04:16.336
  • And that's what you see under the old covenant, self-effort
  • 00:04:16.336 --> 00:04:19.672
  • Trying to, through your own efforts, become righteous.
  • 00:04:19.672 --> 00:04:23.543
  • So, the law said, "do this and live."
  • 00:04:23.543 --> 00:04:27.613
  • Blessings were conditional on your performance in the
  • 00:04:27.613 --> 00:04:31.084
  • Old covenant.
  • 00:04:31.084 --> 00:04:32.885
  • Under the old covenant, you had to be good in order for god to
  • 00:04:32.885 --> 00:04:36.689
  • Be good to you.
  • 00:04:36.689 --> 00:04:38.458
  • And if you were not good, then god couldn't be good to you.
  • 00:04:38.458 --> 00:04:41.661
  • And it's amazing how there are lots of church folks who think
  • 00:04:41.661 --> 00:04:44.997
  • That same thing is supposed to happen today.
  • 00:04:44.997 --> 00:04:48.768
  • That was under the old covenant.
  • 00:04:48.768 --> 00:04:51.971
  • It was all about working for god's approval.
  • 00:04:51.971 --> 00:04:56.376
  • Under the old covenant, you were working for god's approval, you
  • 00:04:56.376 --> 00:04:58.945
  • Were working for god's forgiveness, you were working
  • 00:04:58.945 --> 00:05:01.848
  • For god's favor.
  • 00:05:01.848 --> 00:05:03.483
  • And that's why so many people walked around condemned and full
  • 00:05:03.483 --> 00:05:07.086
  • Of sin consciousness because they were trying to do something
  • 00:05:07.086 --> 00:05:11.924
  • That they were not successful at doing.
  • 00:05:11.924 --> 00:05:14.560
  • But under the new covenant, everything changed.
  • 00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:19.966
  • We're not working for righteousness on the new
  • 00:05:19.966 --> 00:05:22.368
  • Covenant, we are working from righteousness because jesus did
  • 00:05:22.368 --> 00:05:27.206
  • The heavy lifting, and jesus finished the work
  • 00:05:27.206 --> 00:05:29.909
  • Of righteousness.
  • 00:05:29.909 --> 00:05:31.244
  • And through his finished works, we are already righteous.
  • 00:05:31.244 --> 00:05:34.046
  • Through his finished works, we have already been accepted.
  • 00:05:34.046 --> 00:05:36.916
  • Through his finished works, we already have favor.
  • 00:05:36.916 --> 00:05:39.752
  • It is already yours.
  • 00:05:39.752 --> 00:05:42.488
  • Let me give you a demonstration.
  • 00:05:42.488 --> 00:05:43.823
  • I'm gonna say something and then you say, "already done,"
  • 00:05:43.823 --> 00:05:46.526
  • All right?
  • 00:05:46.526 --> 00:05:47.860
  • Righteous.
  • 00:05:47.860 --> 00:05:49.228
  • Delivered.
  • 00:05:49.228 --> 00:05:50.997
  • Redeemed.
  • 00:05:50.997 --> 00:05:53.232
  • Sanctified.
  • 00:05:53.232 --> 00:05:55.635
  • Holy.
  • 00:05:55.635 --> 00:05:58.304
  • Perfect.
  • 00:05:58.304 --> 00:06:00.406
  • Healed.
  • 00:06:00.406 --> 00:06:02.642
  • Prosperous.
  • 00:06:02.642 --> 00:06:04.844
  • So, if it's already done, what we look like trying to do what's
  • 00:06:04.844 --> 00:06:09.615
  • Already done?
  • 00:06:09.615 --> 00:06:12.652
  • How many of you are seated in that chair right now?
  • 00:06:12.652 --> 00:06:16.422
  • What does it look like if i say, "sit down"?
  • 00:06:16.422 --> 00:06:21.060
  • Sit down.
  • 00:06:21.060 --> 00:06:22.395
  • You're already seated, right?
  • 00:06:22.395 --> 00:06:24.363
  • Say, "it's already done."
  • 00:06:24.363 --> 00:06:27.133
  • And so, we have favor that's already done.
  • 00:06:27.133 --> 00:06:32.772
  • It's not based on what you do, but it's based on what he has
  • 00:06:32.772 --> 00:06:37.276
  • Done in this new covenant.
  • 00:06:37.276 --> 00:06:39.479
  • We--it is--he has already done it.
  • 00:06:39.479 --> 00:06:41.814
  • So, listen to me very carefully.
  • 00:06:41.814 --> 00:06:43.416
  • In fact, let's go to our text.
  • 00:06:43.416 --> 00:06:44.917
  • Hebrews 10:14.
  • 00:06:44.917 --> 00:06:46.486
  • Let's look at the king james and then the mirror.
  • 00:06:46.486 --> 00:06:52.091
  • About five more minutes of review and then we'll
  • 00:06:52.091 --> 00:06:53.659
  • Get started.
  • 00:06:53.659 --> 00:06:54.994
  • He says, "for about one offering," he's talking about
  • 00:06:54.994 --> 00:06:56.362
  • Jesus being that one offering, "he hath perfected for ever them
  • 00:06:56.362 --> 00:07:01.367
  • That are sanctified."
  • 00:07:01.367 --> 00:07:02.735
  • By one offering.
  • 00:07:02.735 --> 00:07:04.570
  • Now look at this in the mirror, hebrews 10:14.
  • 00:07:04.570 --> 00:07:07.273
  • He says, "by that one perfect sacrifice," he's talking
  • 00:07:07.273 --> 00:07:11.010
  • About jesus.
  • 00:07:11.010 --> 00:07:12.345
  • Jesus was the one perfect sacrifice.
  • 00:07:12.345 --> 00:07:14.647
  • "he has perfectly sanctified sinful mankind forever."
  • 00:07:14.647 --> 00:07:20.386
  • So, when jesus offered his body, offered himself up, it was
  • 00:07:20.386 --> 00:07:24.290
  • Through that sacrifice that we have perfectly been sanctified,
  • 00:07:24.290 --> 00:07:28.761
  • And that's why all these things are already done through the
  • 00:07:28.761 --> 00:07:32.064
  • Offering of the lord jesus christ.
  • 00:07:32.064 --> 00:07:34.200
  • Now, here's the twist.
  • 00:07:34.200 --> 00:07:37.537
  • Effort isn't eliminated under the new covenant.
  • 00:07:37.537 --> 00:07:43.943
  • See, under the new--under the old covenant, it was through
  • 00:07:43.943 --> 00:07:47.747
  • Self-effort trying to make all these things happen.
  • 00:07:47.747 --> 00:07:51.617
  • But since jesus did what he did in the new covenant, many people
  • 00:07:51.617 --> 00:07:56.188
  • Think, "well, no self-effort," and you're right.
  • 00:07:56.188 --> 00:07:59.992
  • The self-effort is involved in you trying to accomplish what
  • 00:07:59.992 --> 00:08:02.862
  • Jesus has already accomplished.
  • 00:08:02.862 --> 00:08:04.997
  • Self-effort is you trying to do what jesus has already done.
  • 00:08:04.997 --> 00:08:08.834
  • And so, many have assumed, "well, you know, if jesus has
  • 00:08:08.834 --> 00:08:12.104
  • Already done it, and jesus has already finished it, and it's
  • 00:08:12.104 --> 00:08:15.241
  • Already done, then, you know, no effort is required of me in the
  • 00:08:15.241 --> 00:08:21.347
  • New covenant."
  • 00:08:21.347 --> 00:08:22.682
  • That's not quite right.
  • 00:08:22.682 --> 00:08:24.417
  • No self-effort is required of you under the new covenant, but
  • 00:08:24.417 --> 00:08:30.022
  • Your self-effort has been redeemed.
  • 00:08:30.022 --> 00:08:33.426
  • What does that mean?
  • 00:08:33.426 --> 00:08:34.794
  • Your effort is no longer trying to earn something that's already
  • 00:08:34.794 --> 00:08:39.131
  • Been earned.
  • 00:08:39.131 --> 00:08:40.600
  • Your effort has been redeemed.
  • 00:08:40.600 --> 00:08:43.202
  • It's redeemed effort.
  • 00:08:43.202 --> 00:08:44.971
  • It's the effort of you increasing your intimacy, it's
  • 00:08:44.971 --> 00:08:50.176
  • The effort of you increasing your relationship with god, it's
  • 00:08:50.176 --> 00:08:54.313
  • The effort of you expressing from what jesus has done.
  • 00:08:54.313 --> 00:08:59.819
  • See, that's not about performance.
  • 00:08:59.819 --> 00:09:02.021
  • Redeemed effort is not about performance, it's
  • 00:09:02.021 --> 00:09:04.957
  • About participation.
  • 00:09:04.957 --> 00:09:07.727
  • And god can't make you participate with the finished
  • 00:09:07.727 --> 00:09:12.331
  • Works of jesus as far as your intimacy, your relationship, and
  • 00:09:12.331 --> 00:09:16.902
  • Your expression is concerned.
  • 00:09:16.902 --> 00:09:18.237
  • Let me give you an illustration on that, all right?
  • 00:09:18.237 --> 00:09:20.706
  • So, he's already done everything that needs to be done.
  • 00:09:20.706 --> 00:09:24.210
  • And so, i can't--god can't make you study the scriptures.
  • 00:09:24.210 --> 00:09:30.950
  • He can't make you spend time in his presence, he can't make you
  • 00:09:30.950 --> 00:09:35.988
  • Make confessions of declarations over what has already been
  • 00:09:35.988 --> 00:09:41.160
  • Completed, he can't make you lift your hands and praise him
  • 00:09:41.160 --> 00:09:46.265
  • And worship him, he can't make you come to church so you can
  • 00:09:46.265 --> 00:09:50.670
  • Learn more and be equipped.
  • 00:09:50.670 --> 00:09:52.972
  • All of that is your decision to participate with the finished
  • 00:09:52.972 --> 00:09:58.611
  • Works of jesus christ.
  • 00:09:58.611 --> 00:10:00.613
  • Now, let me give you an example in scripture.
  • 00:10:00.613 --> 00:10:01.947
  • Go to philippians chapter 2, and verse 12 and 13.
  • 00:10:01.947 --> 00:10:06.752
  • Philippians chapter 2, verse 12 through 13 in the king james.
  • 00:10:06.752 --> 00:10:11.424
  • He says, "wherefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not
  • 00:10:11.424 --> 00:10:15.761
  • As in my presence only, but now much more in my absence," he
  • 00:10:15.761 --> 00:10:20.599
  • Says, "work out your own salvation with fear
  • 00:10:20.599 --> 00:10:24.437
  • And trembling."
  • 00:10:24.437 --> 00:10:25.771
  • Now, salvation is a finished work.
  • 00:10:25.771 --> 00:10:27.873
  • So it's already done.
  • 00:10:27.873 --> 00:10:29.241
  • He didn't ask you to use your effort to earn salvation.
  • 00:10:29.241 --> 00:10:35.047
  • He says, "salvation is already done.
  • 00:10:35.047 --> 00:10:37.550
  • Now that you have it, work out what i worked in.
  • 00:10:37.550 --> 00:10:43.189
  • I gave you salvation, now work out that salvation with fear
  • 00:10:43.189 --> 00:10:47.793
  • And trembling."
  • 00:10:47.793 --> 00:10:49.128
  • Now watch this, this is great, verse 13.
  • 00:10:49.128 --> 00:10:51.163
  • He says, "for it is god which worketh in you both to will and
  • 00:10:51.163 --> 00:10:55.167
  • To do of his good pleasure."
  • 00:10:55.167 --> 00:10:56.969
  • Watch this.
  • 00:10:56.969 --> 00:10:58.304
  • Redeemed effort partners with the holy spirit to work from the
  • 00:10:58.304 --> 00:11:05.344
  • Finished place of your righteousness,
  • 00:11:05.344 --> 00:11:07.513
  • Glory to god.
  • 00:11:07.513 --> 00:11:08.881
  • And so, here, he is saying, "work out salvation."
  • 00:11:08.881 --> 00:11:13.052
  • That means your effort is now in partnership with the spirit of
  • 00:11:13.052 --> 00:11:17.389
  • God, not independent of god.
  • 00:11:17.389 --> 00:11:20.392
  • So now you're partnering with the holy ghost and you're asking
  • 00:11:20.392 --> 00:11:24.330
  • The holy ghost, "i am gonna put forth the effort to agree with
  • 00:11:24.330 --> 00:11:30.669
  • The salvation that you have made.
  • 00:11:30.669 --> 00:11:33.072
  • Help me.
  • 00:11:33.072 --> 00:11:34.440
  • Help me. show me.
  • 00:11:35.241 --> 00:11:37.076
  • What do i need to do?"
  • 00:11:37.076 --> 00:11:38.778
  • So, what i'm doing now, because basically, he is saying, "i'm
  • 00:11:38.778 --> 00:11:42.515
  • Gonna help you stay in alignment with the finished works
  • 00:11:42.515 --> 00:11:45.451
  • Of righteousness."
  • 00:11:45.451 --> 00:11:46.919
  • Help me, lord, to stay in alignment.
  • 00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:48.721
  • Now how many know you're gonna have the devil trying to knock
  • 00:11:48.721 --> 00:11:50.456
  • You out of alignment?
  • 00:11:50.456 --> 00:11:51.824
  • Help me, lord, to stay in alignment.
  • 00:11:51.824 --> 00:11:53.392
  • So, what do i do to stay in alignment?
  • 00:11:53.392 --> 00:11:55.327
  • I get in his presence, i sing, i study the scriptures, i pray.
  • 00:11:55.327 --> 00:12:00.366
  • All of those things keep me in alignment with the finished
  • 00:12:00.366 --> 00:12:04.770
  • Works of jesus christ.
  • 00:12:04.770 --> 00:12:06.105
  • I'm not trying to earn the finished works of jesus christ,
  • 00:12:06.105 --> 00:12:09.074
  • But now my redeemed effort says these are the things i do to
  • 00:12:09.074 --> 00:12:13.279
  • Stay in alignment with the finished works of jesus christ.
  • 00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:16.682
  • Is everybody--you follow me there?
  • 00:12:16.682 --> 00:12:18.417
  • Everybody on the bus?
  • 00:12:18.417 --> 00:12:20.719
  • All right, let me give you one more illustration and then we'll
  • 00:12:20.719 --> 00:12:22.788
  • Get started.
  • 00:12:22.788 --> 00:12:24.123
  • Look at hebrews 4, verse 11--verse 10 and 11.
  • 00:12:24.123 --> 00:12:31.197
  • Hebrews 4, verse 10 and 11.
  • 00:12:31.197 --> 00:12:34.133
  • So, when you pray, when you worship, when you study or just
  • 00:12:34.133 --> 00:12:37.036
  • Sit in his presence, it's not a grind to get closer, it's a
  • 00:12:37.036 --> 00:12:41.674
  • Response to the nearness you already have with god.
  • 00:12:41.674 --> 00:12:44.443
  • You're already near with god.
  • 00:12:44.443 --> 00:12:46.212
  • You're already there.
  • 00:12:46.212 --> 00:12:47.546
  • Now watch this.
  • 00:12:47.546 --> 00:12:48.881
  • He says, "for he that is entered into his rest," he that entered
  • 00:12:48.881 --> 00:12:53.052
  • Into his rest, i want to talk about this for a moment.
  • 00:12:53.052 --> 00:12:55.688
  • He that has entered into his rest.
  • 00:12:55.688 --> 00:12:57.389
  • I am at rest when i am in alignment with what he
  • 00:12:58.858 --> 00:13:02.561
  • Has finished.
  • 00:13:02.561 --> 00:13:04.363
  • I am at rest when i am lining up with what he has done.
  • 00:13:04.363 --> 00:13:09.401
  • But the bible says, you'll see in a minute, labor to rest.
  • 00:13:09.401 --> 00:13:13.205
  • That's the--that is the redeemed effort.
  • 00:13:13.205 --> 00:13:16.675
  • It requires effort and labor, labor and effort.
  • 00:13:16.675 --> 00:13:19.578
  • It requires effort.
  • 00:13:19.578 --> 00:13:20.913
  • It requires you doing something to stay at rest.
  • 00:13:20.913 --> 00:13:25.017
  • Well, what am i doing to stay at rest?
  • 00:13:25.017 --> 00:13:27.152
  • I'm studying, i'm worshiping, i'm singing my song, i'm
  • 00:13:27.152 --> 00:13:30.756
  • Doing--all of those things you do, that's what labor looks
  • 00:13:30.756 --> 00:13:33.926
  • Like, all right?
  • 00:13:33.926 --> 00:13:35.294
  • He says, "for he that is entered into his rest," so i've entered
  • 00:13:35.294 --> 00:13:38.597
  • Into alignment with everything god has finished.
  • 00:13:38.597 --> 00:13:41.300
  • That simply means i'm in agreement with what's been
  • 00:13:41.300 --> 00:13:44.536
  • Finished, i'm in alignment with what has been finished.
  • 00:13:44.536 --> 00:13:47.706
  • When you're at rest--i'm telling you when you are resting in what
  • 00:13:47.706 --> 00:13:51.810
  • Has already been done, you are relying on it, you are trusting
  • 00:13:51.810 --> 00:13:55.814
  • It, you are in alignment, okay?
  • 00:13:55.814 --> 00:13:59.518
  • "he also has ceased from his own works, as god did from his."
  • 00:13:59.518 --> 00:14:02.821
  • Look at verse 11, he says, "let us labor therefore to enter into
  • 00:14:02.821 --> 00:14:06.892
  • That rest."
  • 00:14:06.892 --> 00:14:08.260
  • He didn't say, "labor to be righteous," why?
  • 00:14:08.260 --> 00:14:09.628
  • 'cause jesus already made us righteous.
  • 00:14:09.628 --> 00:14:11.797
  • He didn't say, "labor to be redeemed," because jesus already
  • 00:14:11.797 --> 00:14:14.600
  • Redeemed us.
  • 00:14:14.600 --> 00:14:15.935
  • He didn't say, "labor to prosper," he said--because
  • 00:14:15.935 --> 00:14:18.504
  • You--jesus has already prospered us.
  • 00:14:18.504 --> 00:14:20.773
  • See, that's where there--none of your labor is gonna do you any
  • 00:14:20.773 --> 00:14:24.576
  • Good when you try to use it to accomplish what jesus has
  • 00:14:24.576 --> 00:14:27.780
  • Already accomplished.
  • 00:14:27.780 --> 00:14:29.581
  • However, what he did say was, "labor to stay at rest."
  • 00:14:29.581 --> 00:14:34.486
  • Labor to stay in alignment, labor to stay in trust.
  • 00:14:34.486 --> 00:14:39.558
  • You know how a storm can come in your life, and it's designed to
  • 00:14:39.558 --> 00:14:43.963
  • Knock you offline, like, i use the satellite dish?
  • 00:14:43.963 --> 00:14:49.234
  • A storm comes and knocks your satellite offline.
  • 00:14:49.234 --> 00:14:52.705
  • You turn your television on, you don't pick up the signal.
  • 00:14:52.705 --> 00:14:56.175
  • And nothing's wrong from where the signals coming from, you
  • 00:14:56.175 --> 00:14:58.610
  • Just need to call the satellite man to get on the roof and get
  • 00:14:58.610 --> 00:15:02.281
  • You back in line again, right?
  • 00:15:02.281 --> 00:15:04.316
  • Well, the devil wants to do that with every one of us.
  • 00:15:04.316 --> 00:15:06.352
  • He's trying to knock you off or out of alignment.
  • 00:15:06.352 --> 00:15:10.856
  • And most of the time, your life is going the way it's going
  • 00:15:10.856 --> 00:15:13.792
  • Because you--somebody needs to get on your roof and straighten
  • 00:15:13.792 --> 00:15:17.329
  • Your satellite dish up.
  • 00:15:17.329 --> 00:15:18.664
  • You're out of line.
  • 00:15:18.664 --> 00:15:20.032
  • And some people live their life out of line.
  • 00:15:20.032 --> 00:15:21.700
  • They're living completely, totally out of line to the
  • 00:15:21.700 --> 00:15:24.870
  • Design and the purpose that god has made for them.
  • 00:15:24.870 --> 00:15:27.773
  • It's not that you're just this evil demonic person, you just
  • 00:15:27.773 --> 00:15:31.243
  • Need somebody to adjust your satellite dish.
  • 00:15:31.243 --> 00:15:34.380
  • You need to get in alignment.
  • 00:15:34.380 --> 00:15:35.781
  • That is called rest, but he says it's also gonna--it's gonna
  • 00:15:35.781 --> 00:15:40.419
  • Require labor.
  • 00:15:40.419 --> 00:15:41.787
  • So, what does labor to rest look like?
  • 00:15:41.787 --> 00:15:44.089
  • All right, first of all, i'm going to get in the word so i
  • 00:15:44.089 --> 00:15:47.026
  • Can find out my design.
  • 00:15:47.026 --> 00:15:48.961
  • I'm--what am i doing?
  • 00:15:48.961 --> 00:15:50.295
  • Labor to stay in alignment.
  • 00:15:50.295 --> 00:15:51.830
  • Oh, and i'm going to praise god because when i praise god, i get
  • 00:15:51.830 --> 00:15:55.734
  • Back in alignment.
  • 00:15:55.734 --> 00:15:57.069
  • The depression leaves and all these crazy tempting
  • 00:15:57.069 --> 00:15:59.538
  • Thoughts leave.
  • 00:15:59.538 --> 00:16:00.906
  • That's why i'm doing that.
  • 00:16:00.906 --> 00:16:02.241
  • I'm going to hang around a community of believers who are
  • 00:16:02.241 --> 00:16:05.411
  • In the word and they can encourage me in the word.
  • 00:16:05.411 --> 00:16:07.579
  • What are they doing? getting me back at rest.
  • 00:16:07.579 --> 00:16:09.415
  • I'm going to--i'm gonna spend time praying, why?
  • 00:16:09.415 --> 00:16:12.918
  • So i can tell people i prayed three hours and they think i'm a
  • 00:16:12.918 --> 00:16:15.454
  • Big prayer warrior?
  • 00:16:15.454 --> 00:16:16.822
  • No, i need to stay in alignment.
  • 00:16:16.822 --> 00:16:18.190
  • So i'm coming to god and i'm responding to him in prayer
  • 00:16:18.190 --> 00:16:21.460
  • Saying i'm gonna stay in alignment and i'm responding to
  • 00:16:21.460 --> 00:16:23.896
  • Him through my righteousness, and i find myself living my life
  • 00:16:23.896 --> 00:16:27.099
  • From everything that he has finished rather than me living
  • 00:16:27.099 --> 00:16:30.402
  • My life trying to get everything he has finished.
  • 00:16:30.402 --> 00:16:33.572
  • "let us labor therefore."
  • 00:16:37.176 --> 00:16:39.745
  • So, when i see you praying in tongues walking down the street,
  • 00:16:39.745 --> 00:16:45.617
  • Ain't nothing wrong.
  • 00:16:45.617 --> 00:16:46.952
  • I'm just saying they're getting in alignment or they're trying
  • 00:16:46.952 --> 00:16:49.488
  • To stay in alignment.
  • 00:16:49.488 --> 00:16:50.823
  • You don't know what just happened.
  • 00:16:50.823 --> 00:16:52.191
  • They might have just had some hurtful thing that just happened
  • 00:16:52.191 --> 00:16:54.326
  • To them.
  • 00:16:54.326 --> 00:16:55.694
  • So, rather than agreeing with the hurtful thing and staying
  • 00:16:55.694 --> 00:16:57.062
  • Hurt all the time, you should work on getting back
  • 00:16:57.062 --> 00:16:58.997
  • In alignment.
  • 00:16:58.997 --> 00:17:00.332
  • [speaking in tongues]
  • 00:17:00.332 --> 00:17:01.733
  • Because i don't know what to pray in english 'cause this
  • 00:17:01.733 --> 00:17:04.837
  • Hurts too bad for me.
  • 00:17:04.837 --> 00:17:06.171
  • I ain't got no english word.
  • 00:17:06.171 --> 00:17:07.539
  • [speaking in tongues] thank you for speaking--
  • 00:17:07.539 --> 00:17:08.874
  • [speaking in tongues]
  • 00:17:08.874 --> 00:17:10.209
  • Okay, so that might not work, and now you got your christian
  • 00:17:10.209 --> 00:17:12.111
  • Music up loud.
  • 00:17:12.111 --> 00:17:13.545
  • I understand.
  • 00:17:13.545 --> 00:17:14.880
  • I mean, something happened, you are--you're getting in
  • 00:17:14.880 --> 00:17:16.682
  • Alignment or you're trying to stay in alignment.
  • 00:17:16.682 --> 00:17:18.917
  • This is called redeemed effort.
  • 00:17:18.917 --> 00:17:21.487
  • Your effort has been redeemed from self-effort to redeemed
  • 00:17:21.487 --> 00:17:25.657
  • Effort that says, "i am going to stay stuck in the finished works
  • 00:17:25.657 --> 00:17:29.962
  • Of jesus christ.
  • 00:17:29.962 --> 00:17:31.296
  • I'm not going back to trying to finish what only jesus can
  • 00:17:31.296 --> 00:17:34.466
  • Finish, but i am going to stand on and rest in and rely upon
  • 00:17:34.466 --> 00:17:40.105
  • Everything that he has done," and it will require effort on
  • 00:17:40.105 --> 00:17:44.143
  • Your part to labor to rest.
  • 00:17:44.143 --> 00:17:49.381
  • That labor to rest is equivalent to redeemed effort.
  • 00:17:49.381 --> 00:17:57.356
  • So, there is effort still remaining under the new
  • 00:17:57.356 --> 00:18:02.995
  • Covenant, but it's not the same as what they tried to accomplish
  • 00:18:02.995 --> 00:18:07.499
  • In the old covenant.
  • 00:18:07.499 --> 00:18:08.834
  • So, when somebody tells you, "well, you know, i'm under
  • 00:18:08.834 --> 00:18:10.469
  • Grace, you know, i ain't got to do nothing."
  • 00:18:10.469 --> 00:18:13.372
  • I mean, i understand what they're saying.
  • 00:18:13.372 --> 00:18:14.706
  • They ain't got to do nothing as far as the finished works are
  • 00:18:14.706 --> 00:18:16.975
  • Concerned, but in order to stay at rest, because they that live
  • 00:18:16.975 --> 00:18:22.514
  • Godly shall suffer persecution, you're gonna have some stuff to
  • 00:18:22.514 --> 00:18:25.217
  • Go through.
  • 00:18:25.217 --> 00:18:26.585
  • How do you respond to what tries to knock your antenna off
  • 00:18:26.585 --> 00:18:30.789
  • The roof?
  • 00:18:30.789 --> 00:18:32.257
  • Praising, singing, meditating, all of the things that we
  • 00:18:32.257 --> 00:18:37.763
  • Do--yeah, that's good, lord.
  • 00:18:37.763 --> 00:18:40.532
  • All the things that we do that the church told us we're doing
  • 00:18:40.532 --> 00:18:44.336
  • It to get what jesus has already done, i'm saying that
  • 00:18:44.336 --> 00:18:48.207
  • Ain't right.
  • 00:18:48.207 --> 00:18:49.541
  • You're not doing all those things to get god to
  • 00:18:49.541 --> 00:18:51.710
  • Do something.
  • 00:18:51.710 --> 00:18:53.045
  • You're not doing, in your redeemed effort, anything to try
  • 00:18:53.045 --> 00:18:56.782
  • To earn something.
  • 00:18:56.782 --> 00:18:58.784
  • You already have it.
  • 00:18:58.784 --> 00:19:01.420
  • You're doing these things to maintain your position and
  • 00:19:01.420 --> 00:19:06.258
  • Stance in the finished works of jesus christ.
  • 00:19:06.258 --> 00:19:10.829
  • Now, if you've noticed, i've said the same thing five, six
  • 00:19:10.829 --> 00:19:13.265
  • Different ways 'cause i'm talking to a bunch of folks at
  • 00:19:13.265 --> 00:19:16.168
  • The same time and i'm hoping you'll get one of them.
  • 00:19:16.168 --> 00:19:20.138
  • I'm hoping you'll get one of them.
  • 00:19:20.138 --> 00:19:21.506
  • I'm hoping you're not gonna walk out of here and say, "well, i'm
  • 00:19:21.506 --> 00:19:24.710
  • Gonna go on a fast so god can give me that job."
  • 00:19:24.710 --> 00:19:27.279
  • No, you believe it's already done.
  • 00:19:27.279 --> 00:19:29.748
  • I'm going on the fast to stay in alignment with what's
  • 00:19:29.748 --> 00:19:32.951
  • Already done.
  • 00:19:32.951 --> 00:19:34.886
  • You see all the stuff we've been doing?
  • 00:19:34.886 --> 00:19:37.055
  • We've been religious about doing these things, okay?
  • 00:19:37.055 --> 00:19:41.059
  • But for the wrong objective.
  • 00:19:41.059 --> 00:19:43.562
  • We thought it was to do what jesus has already done.
  • 00:19:43.562 --> 00:19:47.032
  • It is to cause us to enter and remain in rest and alignment so
  • 00:19:47.032 --> 00:19:52.671
  • That we will see these things manifested in our lives.
  • 00:19:52.671 --> 00:19:56.375
  • God is not gonna work on your time clock.
  • 00:19:56.375 --> 00:19:58.810
  • God is not gonna do it when you want it done, so it is required
  • 00:19:58.810 --> 00:20:02.247
  • For you to just stay in alignment, keep the pathway
  • 00:20:02.247 --> 00:20:05.517
  • Open, keep the signal free, so when it's time it'll go 'cause
  • 00:20:05.517 --> 00:20:10.122
  • He got to get you ready for some things, then you gotta get other
  • 00:20:10.122 --> 00:20:12.658
  • People who are involved ready for it, then they gotta move
  • 00:20:12.658 --> 00:20:14.860
  • This person down here to do that--to get that ready for it,
  • 00:20:14.860 --> 00:20:17.296
  • And you cannot be playing this little microwave game with god.
  • 00:20:17.296 --> 00:20:21.400
  • "i need you to do this tomorrow."
  • 00:20:21.400 --> 00:20:22.834
  • Well, you should have started two years ago.
  • 00:20:22.834 --> 00:20:27.472
  • God is not threatened nor pressured by your drama.
  • 00:20:27.472 --> 00:20:32.344
  • If the drama's there, it is probably there to equip you even
  • 00:20:32.344 --> 00:20:36.581
  • More for when the signal comes through.
  • 00:20:36.581 --> 00:20:39.985
  • So, don't ask god, "why, lord?
  • 00:20:39.985 --> 00:20:41.753
  • Why, lord? why, lord?"
  • 00:20:41.753 --> 00:20:44.523
  • Change the question.
  • 00:20:44.523 --> 00:20:46.091
  • "what do you need me to get from this, lord?
  • 00:20:46.091 --> 00:20:47.926
  • What do you need me to earn from this, lord?
  • 00:20:47.926 --> 00:20:49.795
  • What are you trying to show me, lord?"
  • 00:20:49.795 --> 00:20:51.997
  • And that'll be a piece of stuff that you can have as you enter
  • 00:20:51.997 --> 00:20:55.434
  • Into this place.
  • 00:20:55.434 --> 00:20:57.536
  • I hope y'all are getting that.
  • 00:20:57.536 --> 00:20:59.137
  • I don't know no other way.
  • 00:20:59.137 --> 00:21:00.572
  • If you got it, say, "i got it."
  • 00:21:00.572 --> 00:21:05.677
  • So, may i go on?
  • 00:21:05.677 --> 00:21:07.779
  • All right, so, today's sermon.
  • 00:21:07.779 --> 00:21:11.850
  • We're just gonna look at some scripture to verify all of this
  • 00:21:11.850 --> 00:21:15.120
  • Stuff that i've been talking about.
  • 00:21:15.120 --> 00:21:16.888
  • And what i want to deal with today is this, when god is
  • 00:21:16.888 --> 00:21:21.293
  • Asking you to do something uncomfortable or unfamiliar.
  • 00:21:21.293 --> 00:21:29.201
  • Have you ever been in a situation where he's asking you
  • 00:21:29.201 --> 00:21:31.436
  • To do something uncomfortable and unfamiliar?
  • 00:21:31.436 --> 00:21:38.377
  • And it's important that you understand
  • 00:21:38.377 --> 00:21:41.146
  • The difference between self-effort and redeemed
  • 00:21:41.146 --> 00:21:43.882
  • Effort because you'll go back into--
  • 00:21:43.882 --> 00:21:48.019
  • You'll fall back--you'll fall from grace, really.
  • 00:21:48.019 --> 00:21:52.624
  • You'll fall back into trying to achieve what jesus has
  • 00:21:52.624 --> 00:21:56.061
  • Already done.
  • 00:21:56.061 --> 00:21:57.863
  • Now, let's begin in galatians chapter 3 and verse 3 in
  • 00:21:57.863 --> 00:22:01.967
  • The nlt.
  • 00:22:01.967 --> 00:22:03.802
  • Let's look at a couple of scriptures that clearly identify
  • 00:22:03.802 --> 00:22:08.540
  • Self-effort, that clearly speaks about self-effort:
  • 00:22:08.540 --> 00:22:14.479
  • You trying to do something to earn what jesus has
  • 00:22:14.479 --> 00:22:19.751
  • Already completed.
  • 00:22:19.751 --> 00:22:22.120
  • He says, "how foolish can you be?
  • 00:22:22.120 --> 00:22:25.590
  • After starting your new lives in the spirit, why are you now
  • 00:22:25.590 --> 00:22:30.629
  • Trying to become perfect by your own human effort?"
  • 00:22:30.629 --> 00:22:35.200
  • Oh, let me read it again.
  • 00:22:35.200 --> 00:22:37.969
  • "how foolish can you be?
  • 00:22:37.969 --> 00:22:40.806
  • After starting your new lives in the spirit," you know what he's
  • 00:22:40.806 --> 00:22:43.608
  • Saying there?
  • 00:22:43.608 --> 00:22:44.943
  • There was nothing you could have possibly done for this new life
  • 00:22:44.943 --> 00:22:52.584
  • To be born within you.
  • 00:22:52.584 --> 00:22:55.687
  • What could you have done for it even to be made available
  • 00:22:55.687 --> 00:22:58.089
  • To you?
  • 00:22:58.089 --> 00:22:59.424
  • So, how is it that you started in the spirit, started leaning
  • 00:22:59.424 --> 00:23:02.127
  • On god, started trusting him, "why are you now trying to
  • 00:23:02.127 --> 00:23:06.631
  • Become perfect by your own human efforts?"
  • 00:23:06.631 --> 00:23:09.534
  • Male announcer: are you always striving to get god's approval?
  • 00:23:12.971 --> 00:23:15.474
  • In "self-effort vs. redeemed effort," creflo dollar reveals
  • 00:23:15.474 --> 00:23:19.778
  • How jesus's finished work has freed believers from the
  • 00:23:19.778 --> 00:23:23.148
