- Creflo: now, let me ask you something.
- 00:01:46.819 --> 00:01:48.154
- How many of you are believing god for healing somewhere in
- 00:01:48.154 --> 00:01:51.791
- Your life?
- 00:01:51.791 --> 00:01:53.560
- Okay.
- 00:01:53.560 --> 00:01:56.162
- All right, i want you to listen to this very, very carefully,
- 00:01:56.162 --> 00:02:03.002
- And then i thank god that his presence will fill this house
- 00:02:03.002 --> 00:02:09.209
- This morning, and all will be well with you, amen?
- 00:02:09.209 --> 00:02:14.447
- But everything that we receive, we receive by faith.
- 00:02:14.447 --> 00:02:20.019
- Now, listen to this carefully.
- 00:02:20.019 --> 00:02:21.754
- Galatians says that faith worketh by love--not how much
- 00:02:21.754 --> 00:02:28.528
- You love god, but how much-- excuse me, not how much that--
- 00:02:28.528 --> 00:02:34.434
- It's not how much you love god, but it's how much you believe
- 00:02:34.434 --> 00:02:38.338
- That god loves you.
- 00:02:38.338 --> 00:02:40.707
- Now, let me ask you something, just for you to think about it,
- 00:02:40.707 --> 00:02:42.575
- Get it in your head.
- 00:02:42.575 --> 00:02:43.943
- Do you believe that god loves you?
- 00:02:43.943 --> 00:02:45.378
- Congregation: yes.
- 00:02:45.378 --> 00:02:46.846
- Creflo: okay, now do you also know that the enemy is trying to
- 00:02:46.846 --> 00:02:50.483
- Convince you to not believe that god loves you?
- 00:02:50.483 --> 00:02:54.153
- And so when things happen, it's easy--he wants he wants you to
- 00:02:54.153 --> 00:02:58.157
- Be persuaded that how can god love you when that happened.
- 00:02:58.157 --> 00:03:01.961
- Well, that's life.
- 00:03:01.961 --> 00:03:03.529
- Well, how do you know god loved you--how can you believe god
- 00:03:03.529 --> 00:03:06.699
- Loves you when he didn't do that?
- 00:03:06.699 --> 00:03:09.736
- That's life.
- 00:03:09.736 --> 00:03:11.571
- Listen to me now, that's life.
- 00:03:11.571 --> 00:03:13.873
- What did you say, kenny?
- 00:03:13.873 --> 00:03:15.275
- "it's called life, and nobody's exempt?"
- 00:03:15.275 --> 00:03:19.112
- It's life.
- 00:03:19.112 --> 00:03:20.446
- We are spirit beings involved in a human experience.
- 00:03:20.446 --> 00:03:25.385
- And what i'm trying to get us to see is that god can heal you of
- 00:03:25.385 --> 00:03:33.126
- Everything that hurts, but it's going to be because you believe
- 00:03:33.126 --> 00:03:37.363
- He loves you.
- 00:03:37.363 --> 00:03:38.898
- Because i believe he loves me, i believe he'll do what he
- 00:03:38.898 --> 00:03:42.502
- Promised me.
- 00:03:42.502 --> 00:03:43.936
- Because i believe he loves me, i believe he'll take care of me.
- 00:03:43.936 --> 00:03:48.207
- Because i believe he loves me, i believe he will heal me.
- 00:03:48.207 --> 00:03:52.145
- But if you doubt that god loves you--watch this now--you're
- 00:03:52.145 --> 00:03:56.182
- Going to doubt what he promised you.
- 00:03:56.182 --> 00:03:58.751
- So let's settle that right now.
- 00:03:58.751 --> 00:04:00.620
- "god loves me, and i know it."
- 00:04:00.620 --> 00:04:02.322
- Come on.
- 00:04:02.322 --> 00:04:03.656
- Congregation: god loves me, and i know it.
- 00:04:03.656 --> 00:04:05.024
- Creflo: come on, say it again.
- 00:04:05.024 --> 00:04:06.359
- Congregation: god loves me, and i know it.
- 00:04:06.359 --> 00:04:08.227
- Creflo: one more time.
- 00:04:08.227 --> 00:04:09.595
- Congregation: god loves me, and i know it.
- 00:04:09.595 --> 00:04:11.264
- Creflo: so what should you say when things are looking
- 00:04:11.264 --> 00:04:15.068
- A little messy?
- 00:04:15.068 --> 00:04:16.402
- Congregation: god loves me, and i know it.
- 00:04:16.402 --> 00:04:18.538
- Creflo: when the doctor just diagnosed you with something?
- 00:04:18.538 --> 00:04:20.373
- Congregation: god loves me, and i know it.
- 00:04:20.373 --> 00:04:22.842
- Creflo: when you just lost a loved one?
- 00:04:22.842 --> 00:04:24.210
- Congregation: god loves me, and i know it.
- 00:04:24.210 --> 00:04:26.746
- Creflo: when a baby need a pair of shoes and you ain't got
- 00:04:26.746 --> 00:04:29.182
- No money.
- 00:04:29.182 --> 00:04:30.516
- Congregation: god loves me, and i know it.
- 00:04:30.516 --> 00:04:32.085
- Creflo: this is what the enemy is trying to attack you with.
- 00:04:32.085 --> 00:04:36.189
- The attack is not necessarily with your faith, although
- 00:04:36.189 --> 00:04:38.958
- Ultimately it is.
- 00:04:38.958 --> 00:04:40.293
- The attack is to stop you from believing that god loves you
- 00:04:40.293 --> 00:04:44.864
- With an infinite, unconditional love of god.
- 00:04:44.864 --> 00:04:49.802
- No matter what happens, you gotta believe that god
- 00:04:49.802 --> 00:04:51.938
- Loves you.
- 00:04:51.938 --> 00:04:53.306
- I believe god loves me when i'm up.
- 00:04:53.306 --> 00:04:54.640
- I believe god loves me i'm down.
- 00:04:54.640 --> 00:04:56.008
- I believe god loves me when i fall.
- 00:04:56.008 --> 00:04:57.343
- I believe god loves me when i'm doing great.
- 00:04:57.343 --> 00:04:59.278
- I just believe god loves me, and that is enough power to put the
- 00:04:59.278 --> 00:05:04.350
- Devil in a paralyzed position.
- 00:05:04.350 --> 00:05:06.586
- What is he going to do with an individual who walks around
- 00:05:06.586 --> 00:05:10.423
- Everyday believing that god loves them?
- 00:05:10.423 --> 00:05:14.193
- And so faith worketh by how much you believe god loves you.
- 00:05:14.193 --> 00:05:19.565
- You believe god loves you this morning?
- 00:05:19.565 --> 00:05:22.235
- I believe god loves you this morning too, so whatever you
- 00:05:22.235 --> 00:05:25.238
- Came in here wrong, you're believing throughout this
- 00:05:25.238 --> 00:05:28.875
- Teaching that god loves you, and i believe you're going to walk
- 00:05:28.875 --> 00:05:32.111
- Out with something so, so amazing, amen?
- 00:05:32.111 --> 00:05:35.882
- Praise god.
- 00:05:35.882 --> 00:05:37.250
- Father, we thank you for this-- another opportunity to minister
- 00:05:37.250 --> 00:05:38.885
- To these, your precious sheep.
- 00:05:38.885 --> 00:05:40.720
- Thank you, lord, that revelation and knowledge will flow freely,
- 00:05:40.720 --> 00:05:44.056
- Uninterrupted and unhindered by any satanic or demonic force.
- 00:05:44.056 --> 00:05:47.794
- Now, father, i pray that you will speak through my vocal
- 00:05:47.794 --> 00:05:49.829
- Cords and think through my mind.
- 00:05:49.829 --> 00:05:51.831
- None of me and all of you.
- 00:05:51.831 --> 00:05:53.199
- It's in jesus's name we pray, and everybody said amen.
- 00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:57.970
- If you have your bibles, go with me to the book of 3 john,
- 00:05:57.970 --> 00:06:00.540
- Verse 2.
- 00:06:00.540 --> 00:06:01.941
- Get your pen, your pad out, your phones, take good notes.
- 00:06:01.941 --> 00:06:05.812
- I'm going to take the first 15-20 minutes, and we're going
- 00:06:05.812 --> 00:06:08.214
- To act like we're in class.
- 00:06:08.214 --> 00:06:10.716
- 'cause we've gotta learn something, right?
- 00:06:10.716 --> 00:06:13.653
- Because we're dealing with this soul prosperity.
- 00:06:13.653 --> 00:06:17.190
- Now, today, we are gonna talk about soul prosperity, but we're
- 00:06:17.190 --> 00:06:21.727
- Gonna talk about the soul-body connection.
- 00:06:21.727 --> 00:06:25.498
- And i want to start off by defining soul prosperity.
- 00:06:25.498 --> 00:06:30.636
- Why?
- 00:06:30.636 --> 00:06:31.971
- Look at what it says here in 3 john, verse 2: "beloved, i
- 00:06:31.971 --> 00:06:35.341
- Wish," a more appropriate term is "i pray above all things that
- 00:06:35.341 --> 00:06:41.080
- Thou mayest prosper," or "that thou mayest be whole," or
- 00:06:41.080 --> 00:06:45.251
- "that thou mayest be successful."
- 00:06:45.251 --> 00:06:48.154
- The greek word here is "successful" or
- 00:06:48.154 --> 00:06:50.590
- "flourish", okay?
- 00:06:50.590 --> 00:06:53.459
- He's not saying, "i pray above all things that you be
- 00:06:53.459 --> 00:06:56.295
- Financially fit."
- 00:06:56.295 --> 00:06:58.097
- He's saying, "i pray above all things that you be financially
- 00:06:58.097 --> 00:07:01.434
- Fit, fit in your relationships, fit in your health, fit in every
- 00:07:01.434 --> 00:07:05.838
- Area of your life."
- 00:07:05.838 --> 00:07:07.173
- He's talking about wholeness here.
- 00:07:07.173 --> 00:07:08.541
- "i pray above all things that you may be whole."
- 00:07:08.541 --> 00:07:11.711
- Nothing missing and nothing broken in your life.
- 00:07:11.711 --> 00:07:14.313
- But he uses the word "prosperity," which is
- 00:07:14.313 --> 00:07:16.449
- Translated successful."
- 00:07:16.449 --> 00:07:18.384
- "i pray that you will be successful, that you will be
- 00:07:18.384 --> 00:07:22.321
- Whole, and that you be in health."
- 00:07:22.321 --> 00:07:27.093
- So now he wants you to be successful in every area of
- 00:07:27.093 --> 00:07:30.162
- Your life.
- 00:07:30.162 --> 00:07:31.531
- That's what jesus meant when he said, "i have come that you
- 00:07:31.531 --> 00:07:33.332
- Might have life, and have it," what?
- 00:07:33.332 --> 00:07:35.167
- "more abundantly."
- 00:07:35.167 --> 00:07:36.702
- So he says, "i want you to be successful in every area of
- 00:07:36.702 --> 00:07:39.272
- Your life."
- 00:07:39.272 --> 00:07:40.606
- He uses this word "prosper," which means to flourish
- 00:07:40.606 --> 00:07:42.542
- Or be successful.
- 00:07:42.542 --> 00:07:43.943
- "and i want you to be in health.
- 00:07:43.943 --> 00:07:49.348
- I want you to be in health.
- 00:07:49.348 --> 00:07:52.518
- I want you to be successful, and i want you to be in health."
- 00:07:52.518 --> 00:07:58.090
- And he says being successful in every area and being in health
- 00:07:58.090 --> 00:08:03.696
- Is going to be based on this one truth: "even as your soul is
- 00:08:03.696 --> 00:08:11.170
- Successful," flourishes, prospers.
- 00:08:11.170 --> 00:08:15.675
- "even as your soul is whole."
- 00:08:15.675 --> 00:08:18.945
- So check out what he's saying.
- 00:08:18.945 --> 00:08:20.646
- If you're not successful in your soul, you won't be successful in
- 00:08:20.646 --> 00:08:25.551
- Any other area, including your health.
- 00:08:25.551 --> 00:08:30.156
- That's serious.
- 00:08:30.156 --> 00:08:31.524
- If you're not successful in your soul, you will not be
- 00:08:31.524 --> 00:08:37.663
- Successfully whole, and you won't be successful in your
- 00:08:37.663 --> 00:08:40.933
- Health because you neglect being successful in your soul.
- 00:08:40.933 --> 00:08:50.009
- Now, what is the soul?
- 00:08:50.009 --> 00:08:52.411
- It is the mind.
- 00:08:52.411 --> 00:08:53.746
- It contains the mind, the will, and the emotions.
- 00:08:53.746 --> 00:08:57.049
- Your soul is your thinker, your feeler, your chooser.
- 00:08:57.049 --> 00:09:01.087
- For a long time in church, we used the word "soul" and
- 00:09:01.087 --> 00:09:05.458
- "spirit" interchangeably as if they are the same.
- 00:09:05.458 --> 00:09:10.096
- You are a spirit being. you possess a soul.
- 00:09:10.096 --> 00:09:15.067
- You are not your soul, and you are not your body.
- 00:09:15.067 --> 00:09:18.638
- You are a spirit being.
- 00:09:18.638 --> 00:09:20.973
- You are a spirit being created in the image of god, looking
- 00:09:20.973 --> 00:09:25.211
- Just like god, perfect just like god when you got born again.
- 00:09:25.211 --> 00:09:29.115
- You are a spirit being, you possess a soul, which has your
- 00:09:29.115 --> 00:09:34.553
- Mind, your will, and your emotions.
- 00:09:34.553 --> 00:09:37.323
- You have your thinker, your feeler, and your chooser.
- 00:09:37.323 --> 00:09:41.861
- Amen?
- 00:09:41.861 --> 00:09:43.195
- Your thinker, your feeler, and your chooser.
- 00:09:43.195 --> 00:09:47.166
- Now, he is saying if you're not flourishing in your thinker,
- 00:09:47.166 --> 00:09:53.939
- Your feeler, your chooser, if you're not flourishing in your
- 00:09:53.939 --> 00:09:58.444
- Mind, your will, and your emotions, that will have
- 00:09:58.444 --> 00:10:02.782
- A direct effect on you being successful and flourishing in
- 00:10:02.782 --> 00:10:07.453
- Every other area of your life, including your health.
- 00:10:07.453 --> 00:10:11.724
- Now, to me, man, i see that.
- 00:10:11.724 --> 00:10:14.160
- It's like, okay, so the area i need to make sure i understand
- 00:10:14.160 --> 00:10:18.030
- Is soul prosperity, soul flourishing, soul success.
- 00:10:18.030 --> 00:10:25.404
- And you can't mix it with your spirit.
- 00:10:25.404 --> 00:10:27.239
- You are a spirit.
- 00:10:27.239 --> 00:10:28.574
- Your spirit is already perfect if you're born again.
- 00:10:28.574 --> 00:10:30.609
- You possess a soul.
- 00:10:30.609 --> 00:10:32.011
- That's the software that needs to be updated, that needs to be
- 00:10:32.011 --> 00:10:35.347
- Changed, that needs to be successful, that needs to
- 00:10:35.347 --> 00:10:37.316
- Be flourishing.
- 00:10:37.316 --> 00:10:38.818
- That soul area is where the enemy is trying to make
- 00:10:38.818 --> 00:10:41.053
- His battleground.
- 00:10:41.053 --> 00:10:42.421
- That's where he's trying to defeat you.
- 00:10:42.421 --> 00:10:44.023
- So that's gotta be taken care of.
- 00:10:44.023 --> 00:10:46.726
- And you are not going to prosper in your soul just coming to
- 00:10:46.726 --> 00:10:49.495
- Church and having a good time.
- 00:10:49.495 --> 00:10:51.664
- You've got to renew your mind.
- 00:10:51.664 --> 00:10:53.432
- You gotta know some stuff, all right?
- 00:10:53.432 --> 00:10:58.704
- So let's spend a little time on defining soul prosperity and
- 00:10:58.704 --> 00:11:04.310
- Soul wholeness.
- 00:11:04.310 --> 00:11:05.945
- All right, now, first of all, soul prosperity is about the
- 00:11:05.945 --> 00:11:09.381
- Alignment and the health of the mind, the will, and
- 00:11:09.381 --> 00:11:15.354
- The emotions.
- 00:11:15.354 --> 00:11:16.722
- Soul prosperity is about the alignment and the health of your
- 00:11:16.722 --> 00:11:19.892
- Mind, your emotions, and your will being under grace.
- 00:11:19.892 --> 00:11:24.263
- Aligning your mind with the grace and truth of god.
- 00:11:24.263 --> 00:11:28.167
- Aligning your will with the grace and truth of god.
- 00:11:28.167 --> 00:11:32.238
- Aligning your emotions with the grace and truth of god.
- 00:11:32.238 --> 00:11:36.408
- So everything about your soul needs to be in alignment with
- 00:11:36.408 --> 00:11:39.278
- The grace and truth of god.
- 00:11:39.278 --> 00:11:40.813
- That's why the bible says, "feast on grace."
- 00:11:40.813 --> 00:11:43.949
- If your soul is mixing law and grace, then it is
- 00:11:43.949 --> 00:11:49.622
- Not successful.
- 00:11:49.622 --> 00:11:51.524
- If your soul and your decisions are being made based on the old
- 00:11:51.524 --> 00:11:58.564
- Covenant and not on this new covenant of grace, your soul is
- 00:11:58.564 --> 00:12:01.901
- Not prospering.
- 00:12:01.901 --> 00:12:03.402
- It's not prospering.
- 00:12:03.402 --> 00:12:05.104
- The soul prosperity is an alignment and a health of the
- 00:12:05.104 --> 00:12:10.643
- Mind, the health of the-- healthy mind, emotions, all of
- 00:12:10.643 --> 00:12:14.547
- That is under the grace and truth of god.
- 00:12:14.547 --> 00:12:17.082
- Soul prosperity is the flourishing of the inner life.
- 00:12:17.082 --> 00:12:22.354
- Soul prosperity is flourishing-- the flourishing of your mind,
- 00:12:22.354 --> 00:12:26.692
- The flourishing of your will, the flourishing of
- 00:12:26.692 --> 00:12:29.028
- Your emotions.
- 00:12:29.028 --> 00:12:30.930
- When it is anchored in the finished works of jesus christ
- 00:12:30.930 --> 00:12:35.100
- And being continually renewed by the truth of the gospel.
- 00:12:35.100 --> 00:12:38.904
- This has never gotten this detail before.
- 00:12:38.904 --> 00:12:41.707
- We say renew the mind, but renew it to what?
- 00:12:41.707 --> 00:12:44.143
- Renew the mind to the details of the gospel.
- 00:12:44.143 --> 00:12:48.547
- Align yourself up with what? align yourself--
- 00:12:48.547 --> 00:12:50.850
- "oh, i'm aligning myself up with the word."
- 00:12:50.850 --> 00:12:53.485
- Is--are you aligning yourself up with the word, rightly
- 00:12:53.485 --> 00:12:55.421
- Dividing that word so that you can be in alignment with the
- 00:12:55.421 --> 00:12:59.158
- Finished works of jesus?
- 00:12:59.158 --> 00:13:00.860
- See, if your soul is not lining up with the finished works of
- 00:13:00.860 --> 00:13:03.295
- Jesus, you'll continue to try to get god to do something that
- 00:13:03.295 --> 00:13:06.098
- He's already done.
- 00:13:06.098 --> 00:13:07.700
- If your soul, if your mind is not lining up with the finished
- 00:13:07.700 --> 00:13:12.137
- Works of jesus christ, then your mind will be thinking you got to
- 00:13:12.137 --> 00:13:15.741
- Do a, b, and c in order to accomplish what jesus has
- 00:13:15.741 --> 00:13:19.111
- Already accomplished.
- 00:13:19.111 --> 00:13:20.446
- If your emotions are not lining up with the finished works of
- 00:13:20.446 --> 00:13:24.149
- Jesus christ, if your decisions are not lining up with the
- 00:13:24.149 --> 00:13:28.520
- Finished work of jesus christ, with the gospel of jesus christ,
- 00:13:28.520 --> 00:13:32.091
- With the grace of jesus christ, you're not successful in
- 00:13:32.091 --> 00:13:34.627
- Your soul.
- 00:13:34.627 --> 00:13:35.995
- And i don't know what it is, some christians, they just hang
- 00:13:35.995 --> 00:13:38.163
- On with a lot of tenacity to what they've already learned.
- 00:13:38.163 --> 00:13:41.967
- You're not prospering in your soul.
- 00:13:41.967 --> 00:13:45.537
- You're not prospering in your will.
- 00:13:45.537 --> 00:13:47.740
- Your emotions are not prospering, and it won't be long
- 00:13:47.740 --> 00:13:51.844
- Before you'll start getting evidence that your soul is not
- 00:13:51.844 --> 00:13:54.613
- Prospering because you start acting like somebody under
- 00:13:54.613 --> 00:13:57.316
- The law.
- 00:13:57.316 --> 00:14:00.052
- 'cause you're not prospering in your soul.
- 00:14:00.052 --> 00:14:04.323
- It's not material wealth first.
- 00:14:04.323 --> 00:14:08.594
- It's the inner wholeness and stability that then allows
- 00:14:08.594 --> 00:14:12.631
- Eternal external prosperity.
- 00:14:12.631 --> 00:14:15.434
- In other words, we're not looking at your material
- 00:14:15.434 --> 00:14:18.804
- Wealth first.
- 00:14:18.804 --> 00:14:20.205
- That's in it, but that's not priority.
- 00:14:20.205 --> 00:14:22.741
- It's the inner wholeness first.
- 00:14:22.741 --> 00:14:25.511
- Inner, inner wholeness first and the stability that then allows
- 00:14:25.511 --> 00:14:29.648
- That external prosperity.
- 00:14:29.648 --> 00:14:31.383
- The inner wholeness produces the health, the relationships, the
- 00:14:31.383 --> 00:14:36.355
- Purpose in your life, the provision in your life.
- 00:14:36.355 --> 00:14:39.124
- All of those things begin to manifest because it's the inner
- 00:14:39.124 --> 00:14:44.096
- Wholeness, what's going on on the inside of you, what's
- 00:14:44.096 --> 00:14:48.634
- Happening in your thinking, in your mind, and in your will.
- 00:14:48.634 --> 00:14:54.139
- It's not this transaction: "i'm going to do this, and then god's
- 00:14:54.139 --> 00:14:56.775
- Got to do that."
- 00:14:56.775 --> 00:14:58.110
- God ain't got to do nothing but stay god and let me--
- 00:14:58.110 --> 00:15:01.680
- [congregation laughing]
- 00:15:01.680 --> 00:15:04.883
- Is everybody on the bus right now?
- 00:15:04.883 --> 00:15:06.952
- All right, your soul has got to--so it's your
- 00:15:06.952 --> 00:15:10.789
- Inner wholeness.
- 00:15:10.789 --> 00:15:12.124
- Are you whole and flourishing in your emotions?
- 00:15:12.124 --> 00:15:17.596
- Or are your emotions still subject to depression?
- 00:15:17.596 --> 00:15:22.634
- Are your emotions still subject to brokenness?
- 00:15:22.634 --> 00:15:25.804
- You're not whole in your emotions.
- 00:15:25.804 --> 00:15:28.374
- Are you whole in your will, your decision-making mechanisms?
- 00:15:28.374 --> 00:15:33.045
- If you're not whole, if you're not making decisions according
- 00:15:33.045 --> 00:15:35.481
- To the finished works of jesus, you're not whole.
- 00:15:35.481 --> 00:15:38.117
- You're not whole.
- 00:15:38.117 --> 00:15:39.785
- Your mind, your mind, is your mind whole?
- 00:15:39.785 --> 00:15:42.021
- What is it thinking all the time?
- 00:15:42.021 --> 00:15:44.623
- Is it thinking depression all the time?
- 00:15:44.623 --> 00:15:46.959
- Is it thinking, "nobody likes me, everybody hates me?"
- 00:15:46.959 --> 00:15:50.062
- What is it--you're not whole there.
- 00:15:50.062 --> 00:15:52.197
- And this goes together when you talk about getting married.
- 00:15:52.197 --> 00:15:55.367
- You don't want to go and get married to somebody who's not
- 00:15:55.367 --> 00:15:59.071
- Whole on the inside.
- 00:15:59.071 --> 00:16:01.073
- If they don't have inward wholeness, then don't expect to
- 00:16:01.073 --> 00:16:04.710
- See outward wholeness because they're not whole on the inside.
- 00:16:04.710 --> 00:16:09.048
- And it's been to such a point that we have put in our thinking
- 00:16:09.048 --> 00:16:15.454
- And in our talking, "i'm looking for my half."
- 00:16:15.454 --> 00:16:19.358
- You don't want a half a man, and you don't want a half a woman.
- 00:16:19.358 --> 00:16:25.798
- You want somebody that's whole emotionally.
- 00:16:25.798 --> 00:16:29.168
- You don't want somebody that's half-whole emotionally.
- 00:16:29.168 --> 00:16:33.639
- That doesn't even make sense, because if they're not whole
- 00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:36.842
- Emotionally, that means externally you're going to see
- 00:16:36.842 --> 00:16:40.045
- Some real messed-up stuff.
- 00:16:40.045 --> 00:16:43.615
- You're going to see narcissistic behavior coming from a person
- 00:16:43.615 --> 00:16:47.553
- Who is not emotionally whole.
- 00:16:47.553 --> 00:16:50.856
- You're going to see people-- you're gonna get--you're going
- 00:16:50.856 --> 00:16:52.891
- To marry somebody who their mind's not set on god, so their
- 00:16:52.891 --> 00:16:56.562
- Mind's going to be open to be set on something else, and
- 00:16:56.562 --> 00:16:59.098
- Whatever a man thinketh, that's what happens,
- 00:16:59.098 --> 00:17:02.067
- That's what becomes.
- 00:17:02.067 --> 00:17:05.637
- Please, ladies and gentlemen, hear me.
- 00:17:05.637 --> 00:17:07.005
- Somebody says, 'well, i read my bible."
- 00:17:07.005 --> 00:17:08.340
- You don't even know how to read your bible hardly because
- 00:17:08.340 --> 00:17:09.808
- You won't come to learn how to read your bible.
- 00:17:09.808 --> 00:17:11.276
- If you read your bible from genesis and revelation like it's
- 00:17:11.276 --> 00:17:13.545
- A storybook, when you get the revelation, you're going to be
- 00:17:13.545 --> 00:17:15.814
- So confused, you ain't going to know what to do.
- 00:17:15.814 --> 00:17:21.353
- So i'm not impressed when you tell me, "i read the whole
- 00:17:21.353 --> 00:17:23.522
- Bible," 'cause i'm going to ask, "how did you read it?"
- 00:17:23.522 --> 00:17:32.297
- Is everybody still on the bus?
- 00:17:32.297 --> 00:17:35.434
- All right, let's look at new testament insights on soul
- 00:17:35.434 --> 00:17:38.337
- Prosperity before we get started.
- 00:17:38.337 --> 00:17:40.873
- This is foundation.
- 00:17:40.873 --> 00:17:42.207
- We haven't started yet.
- 00:17:42.207 --> 00:17:43.542
- I should have told them don't even start the clock,
- 00:17:43.542 --> 00:17:44.910
- But they have already started the clock.
- 00:17:44.910 --> 00:17:46.245
- So new testament insights on soul prosperity.
- 00:17:46.245 --> 00:17:48.680
- Number one, a renewed mind.
- 00:17:48.680 --> 00:17:52.117
- A renewed mind.
- 00:17:52.117 --> 00:17:53.452
- Romans chapter 12:2 said to be-- turn there, yeah.
- 00:17:53.452 --> 00:17:58.657
- He says, "and be not conformed to this world: but be," what?
- 00:17:58.657 --> 00:18:01.426
- "transformed."
- 00:18:01.426 --> 00:18:02.794
- That word "transformed" means changed.
- 00:18:02.794 --> 00:18:04.129
- He said, "don't be conformed to the world's system of doing,
- 00:18:04.129 --> 00:18:07.332
- Thinking, and feeling," okay?
- 00:18:07.332 --> 00:18:09.668
- "don't conform your thinking, your feeler, or your chooser.
- 00:18:09.668 --> 00:18:13.071
- Don't conform it with the world's way of doing it, but be
- 00:18:13.071 --> 00:18:16.608
- Transformed," or be what?
- 00:18:16.608 --> 00:18:18.310
- "changed."
- 00:18:18.310 --> 00:18:19.678
- How am i changed?
- 00:18:19.678 --> 00:18:21.013
- By the renewing of what?
- 00:18:21.013 --> 00:18:22.381
- My mind.
- 00:18:22.381 --> 00:18:23.715
- And i renew my mind with what?
- 00:18:23.715 --> 00:18:25.083
- The finished works of jesus.
- 00:18:25.083 --> 00:18:26.418
- With the gospel of grace, i renew my mind, "that you may
- 00:18:26.418 --> 00:18:28.954
- Prove with that renewed mind what is good, and what is
- 00:18:28.954 --> 00:18:32.124
- Acceptable, and what is the perfect will of god when you
- 00:18:32.124 --> 00:18:34.760
- Renew your mind."
- 00:18:34.760 --> 00:18:36.428
- So a prospering soul is a mind that has shifted from law-based
- 00:18:36.428 --> 00:18:40.499
- Thinking, a prosperous soul is a mind that's shifted from
- 00:18:40.499 --> 00:18:45.103
- Law-based thinking or sin-consciousness.
- 00:18:45.103 --> 00:18:48.707
- When i say law-based thinking, you have turned from
- 00:18:48.707 --> 00:18:51.543
- Sin-consciousness, you have turned from fear, you have
- 00:18:51.543 --> 00:18:55.047
- Turned from lack.
- 00:18:55.047 --> 00:18:57.416
- And now you've shifted to grace-based thinking, you have
- 00:18:57.416 --> 00:19:00.919
- Turned to innocence, you have turned to abundance, you have
- 00:19:00.919 --> 00:19:04.423
- Turned to sonship.
- 00:19:04.423 --> 00:19:06.525
- That's what it means to have a renewed mind, all right?
- 00:19:06.525 --> 00:19:11.964
- What about a peaceful-- secondly, a peaceful or
- 00:19:11.964 --> 00:19:16.201
- Peace-filled emotion?
- 00:19:16.201 --> 00:19:18.604
- Peace-filled emotions.
- 00:19:18.604 --> 00:19:23.041
- Philippians chapter 4:7, look at that real quick.
- 00:19:23.041 --> 00:19:25.877
- Peace-filled emotions.
- 00:19:25.877 --> 00:19:28.313
- What does that look like?
- 00:19:28.313 --> 00:19:29.815
- Verse 7 says, "and the peace of god, which passes
- 00:19:29.815 --> 00:19:32.918
- Understanding," check that out.
- 00:19:32.918 --> 00:19:35.187
- "it shall keep your heart and mind through christ jesus."
- 00:19:35.187 --> 00:19:39.958
- Peace-filled emotions.
- 00:19:39.958 --> 00:19:41.460
- Emotional prosperity means living free from anxiety.
- 00:19:41.460 --> 00:19:45.464
- Are you living free from anxiety?
- 00:19:45.464 --> 00:19:48.267
- It means living free from bitterness and unforgiveness.
- 00:19:48.267 --> 00:19:53.839
- Are you free from bitterness and unforgiveness?
- 00:19:53.839 --> 00:19:57.609
- It means to be free from shame because the heart is settled
- 00:19:57.609 --> 00:20:03.248
- In god's love.
- 00:20:03.248 --> 00:20:05.651
- So your emotions prosper because they're filled with peace.
- 00:20:05.651 --> 00:20:09.454
- You're free from anxiety, you're free from bitterness, you're
- 00:20:09.454 --> 00:20:12.724
- Free from shame because your heart is settled in god's love.
- 00:20:12.724 --> 00:20:17.896
- Well, what about the will?
- 00:20:17.896 --> 00:20:19.264
- Let's look at this.
- 00:20:19.264 --> 00:20:20.599
- All right, so we looked at a renewed mind, a peace-filled
- 00:20:20.599 --> 00:20:22.968
- Emotion, we looked at strengthened will,
- 00:20:22.968 --> 00:20:25.370
- A strengthened will.
- 00:20:25.370 --> 00:20:27.272
- Look at philippians 2:13.
- 00:20:27.272 --> 00:20:28.674
- Philippians 2:13 says this.
- 00:20:28.674 --> 00:20:30.742
- A strengthened will.
- 00:20:30.742 --> 00:20:32.511
- He says, "for it is god which worketh in you both to will and
- 00:20:32.511 --> 00:20:37.316
- To do of his good pleasure."
- 00:20:37.316 --> 00:20:41.787
- So a prospering soul is not driven by self-effort, but it's
- 00:20:41.787 --> 00:20:46.658
- Driven by god working in you.
- 00:20:46.658 --> 00:20:49.394
- My soul is driven by god working in me, shaping my desires in
- 00:20:49.394 --> 00:20:54.433
- Harmony with his will.
- 00:20:54.433 --> 00:20:55.934
- And now, all of a sudden, what i will to do is how god has
- 00:20:55.934 --> 00:21:01.073
- Changed my desires to will to do.
- 00:21:01.073 --> 00:21:03.909
- I--god is working in me to give me the desires to do what
- 00:21:03.909 --> 00:21:08.113
- Pleases him.
- 00:21:08.113 --> 00:21:09.481
- And so what i'm--in my relationship, i'm trusting god
- 00:21:09.481 --> 00:21:13.051
- To change my desires to do what pleases him.
- 00:21:13.051 --> 00:21:16.421
- So my will now is governed by what the holy spirit is working
- 00:21:16.421 --> 00:21:21.026
- On the inside of me.
- 00:21:21.026 --> 00:21:22.994
- My prosperous soul is now driven by god working in me.
- 00:21:22.994 --> 00:21:29.434
- My prosperous soul, my strengthened will is driven by
- 00:21:29.434 --> 00:21:32.637
- God shaping my desires in harmony with his purpose.
- 00:21:32.637 --> 00:21:37.709
- So we've covered the mind, the will, and the emotions.
- 00:21:37.709 --> 00:21:41.079
- So what's the fruit i can expect?
- 00:21:41.079 --> 00:21:43.882
- Everybody always want to know, "what do i get out of this?"
- 00:21:43.882 --> 00:21:45.817
- What's the fruit of a--of soul prosperity?
- 00:21:45.817 --> 00:21:49.588
- Well, when your soul prospers, you can expect these five things
- 00:21:49.588 --> 00:21:54.526
- When your soul prospers.
- 00:21:54.526 --> 00:21:56.695
- Number one, you will enjoy inner peace despite the circumstances.
- 00:21:56.695 --> 00:22:03.568
- When your soul prospers, you can enjoy inner peace despite
- 00:22:03.568 --> 00:22:08.840
- The circumstances.
- 00:22:08.840 --> 00:22:11.510
- Jesus says, "i'll give you my peace."
- 00:22:11.510 --> 00:22:13.545
- What's jesus's peace?
- 00:22:13.545 --> 00:22:14.913
- Jesus's peace is peace in the middle of trouble, peace
- 00:22:14.913 --> 00:22:18.650
- Tailor-made for trouble.
- 00:22:18.650 --> 00:22:21.186
- And you know that as a result of a prosperous soul, a soul that
- 00:22:21.186 --> 00:22:25.390
- Prospers, you enjoy peace despite the circumstances.
- 00:22:25.390 --> 00:22:29.394
- Number two.
- 00:22:29.394 --> 00:22:31.930
- Go to 1 peter 1:8.
- 00:22:31.930 --> 00:22:33.265
- Number two, you experience joy unspeakable.
- 00:22:33.265 --> 00:22:38.036
- You experience joy unspeakable.
- 00:22:38.036 --> 00:22:40.005
- Verse 8 says, "whom having not seen ye love; in whom, though
- 00:22:40.005 --> 00:22:44.976
- Now you see him not, you believing, yet rejoice with joy
- 00:22:44.976 --> 00:22:49.815
- Unspeakable and full of glory."
- 00:22:49.815 --> 00:22:52.784
- When your soul is prospering, that's the experience you'll
- 00:22:52.784 --> 00:22:55.554
- Have--joy unspeakable.
- 00:22:55.554 --> 00:22:57.956
- Announcer: if you feel like you need to perform to be accepted
- 00:23:01.827 --> 00:23:04.396
