  • Creflo: this morning we're going to talk about the soul.
  • 00:02:09.031 --> 00:02:12.167
  • This is still in the true prosperity series, but we're
  • 00:02:12.167 --> 00:02:15.370
  • Going to talk about soul prosperity.
  • 00:02:15.370 --> 00:02:19.007
  • And remember, when we talk about prosperity, prosperity is not
  • 00:02:19.007 --> 00:02:23.545
  • Defined finances.
  • 00:02:23.545 --> 00:02:26.248
  • Prosperity is not defined money.
  • 00:02:26.248 --> 00:02:29.084
  • Prosperity is defined wholeness.
  • 00:02:29.084 --> 00:02:31.987
  • Nothing missing, nothing broken.
  • 00:02:31.987 --> 00:02:33.555
  • Y'all got my pie?
  • 00:02:33.555 --> 00:02:34.890
  • Stick my pie up there.
  • 00:02:34.890 --> 00:02:36.258
  • I use my pie the whole series because it says it a lot better
  • 00:02:36.258 --> 00:02:38.660
  • Than i can.
  • 00:02:38.660 --> 00:02:40.028
  • You are not prosperous just because you have money.
  • 00:02:40.028 --> 00:02:42.898
  • You can have a billion dollars and a billion dollars doesn't
  • 00:02:42.898 --> 00:02:45.534
  • Make you prosperous.
  • 00:02:45.534 --> 00:02:47.336
  • Prosperity is wholeness.
  • 00:02:47.336 --> 00:02:49.271
  • See, prosperity is not just having money, but don't
  • 00:02:49.271 --> 00:02:52.641
  • Have peace.
  • 00:02:52.641 --> 00:02:54.009
  • Neither is it just having peace, and not having money.
  • 00:02:54.009 --> 00:02:56.845
  • Prosperity is nothing missing and nothing broken.
  • 00:02:56.845 --> 00:02:59.448
  • So that's a picture of prosperity.
  • 00:02:59.448 --> 00:03:01.350
  • When you have your finances, your health, your joy.
  • 00:03:01.350 --> 00:03:03.552
  • Your security, your purpose, your peace, your identity, your
  • 00:03:03.552 --> 00:03:06.989
  • Relationships, that's wholeness.
  • 00:03:06.989 --> 00:03:09.424
  • See, you're not--you cannot-- riches is not just confined to
  • 00:03:09.424 --> 00:03:12.594
  • Being to having finances.
  • 00:03:12.594 --> 00:03:13.929
  • You might be rich in family and rich in relationships.
  • 00:03:13.929 --> 00:03:17.232
  • You might be rich, filthy rich in peace.
  • 00:03:17.232 --> 00:03:21.203
  • You follow what i'm saying?
  • 00:03:21.203 --> 00:03:22.571
  • But now what happens when you don't have your finances, okay?
  • 00:03:22.571 --> 00:03:26.975
  • Then, you know--or you don't have--you know, you got health,
  • 00:03:26.975 --> 00:03:29.778
  • Joy, peace, but without finances, the health, you worry,
  • 00:03:29.778 --> 00:03:33.582
  • The joy is there for a minute, security is questioned, purpose
  • 00:03:33.582 --> 00:03:36.785
  • Is questioned.
  • 00:03:36.785 --> 00:03:38.120
  • All right, what happens when you don't have your health?
  • 00:03:38.120 --> 00:03:40.022
  • All right, now you can have finances, but you don't have
  • 00:03:40.022 --> 00:03:43.025
  • Your health.
  • 00:03:43.025 --> 00:03:44.359
  • You can have finances but you don't have your health, you're
  • 00:03:44.359 --> 00:03:47.329
  • Just a sick man with money.
  • 00:03:47.329 --> 00:03:50.065
  • And now, you ain't got no health, and you know, the joy
  • 00:03:50.065 --> 00:03:53.101
  • All right sometimes, but it depends on how you feel.
  • 00:03:53.101 --> 00:03:55.337
  • Your security, i just don't know if i'm going to live or
  • 00:03:55.337 --> 00:03:57.272
  • Die, perfect--
  • 00:03:57.272 --> 00:03:58.607
  • You see, you got to have it all, you got to have it all.
  • 00:03:58.607 --> 00:04:00.475
  • So what if i don't have my joy?
  • 00:04:00.475 --> 00:04:02.044
  • Okay, i got my money, i got my health, but i ain't got no joy.
  • 00:04:02.044 --> 00:04:06.682
  • You a sad man with health and a lot of money, but you ain't got
  • 00:04:06.682 --> 00:04:11.086
  • Your joy, which is going to affect your health.
  • 00:04:11.086 --> 00:04:13.655
  • You ain't got your joy, you ain't trying to give to nobody.
  • 00:04:13.655 --> 00:04:16.725
  • You ain't got your joy, your relationships--it's wholeness.
  • 00:04:16.725 --> 00:04:21.229
  • You've got to reprogram your thinking that when you hear
  • 00:04:21.229 --> 00:04:24.900
  • Prosperity, you don't think money.
  • 00:04:24.900 --> 00:04:27.502
  • When you hear prosperity, you think wholeness.
  • 00:04:27.502 --> 00:04:30.372
  • It's what jesus described as, "i've come that you might have
  • 00:04:30.372 --> 00:04:33.709
  • Life and have it more abundantly," and abundant life
  • 00:04:33.709 --> 00:04:38.380
  • Is wholeness.
  • 00:04:38.380 --> 00:04:39.715
  • And he died so we can be whole, nothing missing and nothing
  • 00:04:39.715 --> 00:04:44.052
  • Broken in our life, and that's what prosperity means.
  • 00:04:44.052 --> 00:04:46.488
  • Amen?
  • 00:04:46.488 --> 00:04:47.823
  • Now, so what we're going to do this morning, we're going to
  • 00:04:47.823 --> 00:04:50.926
  • Talk about soul prosperity.
  • 00:04:50.926 --> 00:04:54.663
  • Soul prosperity.
  • 00:04:54.663 --> 00:04:57.165
  • Man is a spirit being.
  • 00:04:57.165 --> 00:05:01.403
  • Man is a spirit, he possesses a soul, he lives in a
  • 00:05:01.403 --> 00:05:05.240
  • Physical body.
  • 00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:07.976
  • Your soul is made up of your mind, your will, and
  • 00:05:07.976 --> 00:05:15.917
  • Your emotions.
  • 00:05:15.917 --> 00:05:18.487
  • Your mind sometimes can be blinded to the truth, and
  • 00:05:18.487 --> 00:05:23.959
  • Sometimes you don't even know it.
  • 00:05:23.959 --> 00:05:25.293
  • You remember the madman of gadara?
  • 00:05:25.293 --> 00:05:27.362
  • I believe it was in mark chapter 5 where he was possessed with
  • 00:05:27.362 --> 00:05:30.332
  • Legions of demons.
  • 00:05:30.332 --> 00:05:32.634
  • Jesus went and ministered to him, and when jesus ministered
  • 00:05:32.634 --> 00:05:36.471
  • To him, you know, the demons were negotiating with jesus,
  • 00:05:36.471 --> 00:05:39.941
  • "don't send us to hell, send us into those swine," you know.
  • 00:05:39.941 --> 00:05:44.579
  • And when they came and they found the man, they found him
  • 00:05:44.579 --> 00:05:51.119
  • Sitting clothed and in his-- watch this--right mind.
  • 00:05:51.119 --> 00:05:58.727
  • In his right mind.
  • 00:05:58.727 --> 00:06:00.929
  • So those demons controlled his mind.
  • 00:06:00.929 --> 00:06:05.233
  • And i don't want wrong influences to control your mind.
  • 00:06:05.233 --> 00:06:11.039
  • Soul prosperity is having the right mind.
  • 00:06:11.039 --> 00:06:15.343
  • You're not prospering in your mind if you don't have the mind
  • 00:06:15.343 --> 00:06:21.082
  • That is in alignment with the finished works of jesus.
  • 00:06:21.082 --> 00:06:25.153
  • When you have a mind that tells you're not righteous, when you
  • 00:06:25.153 --> 00:06:27.622
  • Have a mind that's filled with condemnation and shame and fear,
  • 00:06:27.622 --> 00:06:32.093
  • You don't have a right mind.
  • 00:06:32.093 --> 00:06:34.796
  • That's not a prosperous mind.
  • 00:06:34.796 --> 00:06:37.999
  • And so he talks about, you know, your soul is made up of your
  • 00:06:37.999 --> 00:06:41.703
  • Mind, your will.
  • 00:06:41.703 --> 00:06:44.005
  • Your will.
  • 00:06:44.005 --> 00:06:45.540
  • There's a lot of places in the new testament when it says, you
  • 00:06:45.540 --> 00:06:48.143
  • Know, see to it that you don't do this, give no place
  • 00:06:48.143 --> 00:06:52.547
  • To the devil.
  • 00:06:52.547 --> 00:06:53.982
  • That requires your will, and a lot of times, we give place to
  • 00:06:53.982 --> 00:06:58.186
  • The devil.
  • 00:06:58.186 --> 00:06:59.754
  • We--it's your will, it's your decision.
  • 00:06:59.754 --> 00:07:03.024
  • You decide to give place to the devil.
  • 00:07:03.024 --> 00:07:05.460
  • "well, i'm just going to say something."
  • 00:07:05.460 --> 00:07:06.795
  • Sometimes you don't need to say nothing.
  • 00:07:06.795 --> 00:07:09.264
  • Your will, your decision mechanism, that's where your
  • 00:07:09.264 --> 00:07:13.401
  • Decisions are, and he says, "don't give place."
  • 00:07:13.401 --> 00:07:17.305
  • You don't give place, that's an act of your will.
  • 00:07:17.305 --> 00:07:19.975
  • Your giving place to the devil is an act of your will.
  • 00:07:19.975 --> 00:07:22.544
  • Well, when you give place to the devil, your will is
  • 00:07:22.544 --> 00:07:25.547
  • Not prosperous.
  • 00:07:25.547 --> 00:07:27.716
  • It's not prosperous.
  • 00:07:27.716 --> 00:07:30.018
  • Your mind, your will, and then your emotions, and boy, satan
  • 00:07:30.018 --> 00:07:35.690
  • Loves to sit in the driver's seat of your emotions,
  • 00:07:35.690 --> 00:07:38.793
  • Especially your negative emotions, to try to get you to
  • 00:07:38.793 --> 00:07:41.563
  • Do something because your emotions move you.
  • 00:07:41.563 --> 00:07:45.033
  • Your emotions move you to--when they're negative, they move you
  • 00:07:45.033 --> 00:07:50.305
  • To a negative place.
  • 00:07:50.305 --> 00:07:52.173
  • And so we're talking about a prosperous soul, a soul that's
  • 00:07:52.173 --> 00:07:57.979
  • In alignment with wholeness, a soul that is whole in your mind,
  • 00:07:57.979 --> 00:08:06.187
  • Whole in your will, whole emotions, whole emotions.
  • 00:08:06.187 --> 00:08:11.593
  • Now, you're christians, and some have tried to tell you that you
  • 00:08:11.593 --> 00:08:14.963
  • Don't have emotions.
  • 00:08:14.963 --> 00:08:16.331
  • You have emotions.
  • 00:08:16.331 --> 00:08:17.666
  • The problem is when you allow those emotions to have you, and
  • 00:08:17.666 --> 00:08:20.268
  • Then they start governing and dominating your life.
  • 00:08:20.268 --> 00:08:24.306
  • But you want to be--have a prosperous soul.
  • 00:08:24.306 --> 00:08:26.775
  • You want to have wholeness in your soul and your emotions.
  • 00:08:26.775 --> 00:08:30.845
  • You want to have wholeness in your will, in your
  • 00:08:30.845 --> 00:08:34.716
  • Decision-making mechanisms.
  • 00:08:34.716 --> 00:08:37.052
  • So i define soul prosperity as a soul that is aligned and
  • 00:08:37.052 --> 00:08:46.895
  • Finds rest in the finished works of jesus.
  • 00:08:46.895 --> 00:08:51.333
  • I am the righteousness of god, and my soul finds rest in that.
  • 00:08:51.333 --> 00:08:56.304
  • I am redeemed and delivered, and my soul finds rest in that.
  • 00:08:56.304 --> 00:09:01.610
  • See, the battleground that satan has chosen to try to defeat you
  • 00:09:01.610 --> 00:09:06.715
  • Is in your mind, and your will, and your emotions.
  • 00:09:06.715 --> 00:09:11.519
  • All of the battle happens right up here, the battle of the mind.
  • 00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:15.156
  • The mind is the arena of faith.
  • 00:09:15.156 --> 00:09:17.993
  • And he tries to get to that battleground through your eye
  • 00:09:17.993 --> 00:09:22.297
  • Gate, the things you see, through your ear gate, the
  • 00:09:22.297 --> 00:09:24.666
  • Things you hear, and even your mouth, the things you say, he
  • 00:09:24.666 --> 00:09:28.403
  • Tries to now have influence in your mind, your will, and
  • 00:09:28.403 --> 00:09:33.708
  • Your emotions.
  • 00:09:33.708 --> 00:09:35.610
  • So, somebody says,
  • 00:09:35.610 --> 00:09:36.978
  • "well, it don't matter what you listen to!"
  • 00:09:36.978 --> 00:09:38.747
  • Oh, really?
  • 00:09:38.747 --> 00:09:40.081
  • "it don't matter what you look at!"
  • 00:09:40.081 --> 00:09:41.449
  • Oh, really?
  • 00:09:41.449 --> 00:09:42.784
  • Whether you think it or not, you're allowing access to your
  • 00:09:42.784 --> 00:09:47.389
  • Enemy to create battles that you would not have to have if you
  • 00:09:47.389 --> 00:09:54.963
  • Didn't open the gates for the tools to show up in your mind.
  • 00:09:54.963 --> 00:10:02.504
  • So when i talk about soul prosperity, i'm not talking
  • 00:10:02.504 --> 00:10:05.073
  • About, you know, money in your mind.
  • 00:10:05.073 --> 00:10:11.680
  • Okay, so let's really, really listen to this because the key
  • 00:10:11.680 --> 00:10:17.352
  • To wholeness in every arena of life is going to be
  • 00:10:17.352 --> 00:10:22.957
  • Soul prosperity.
  • 00:10:22.957 --> 00:10:24.292
  • How are you prospering in your soul?
  • 00:10:24.292 --> 00:10:27.929
  • Let's look at 3 john and verse 2.
  • 00:10:27.929 --> 00:10:30.699
  • How are you prospering in your soul?
  • 00:10:30.699 --> 00:10:34.903
  • 3 john, verse 2, and he says this: "beloved, i wish above all
  • 00:10:34.903 --> 00:10:42.677
  • Things--" now, the actual word here for "wish" is, of
  • 00:10:42.677 --> 00:10:48.083
  • Course, "pray."
  • 00:10:48.083 --> 00:10:49.584
  • "beloved, i pray above all things."
  • 00:10:49.584 --> 00:10:53.221
  • I mean, an apostle didn't go around wishing, you know?
  • 00:10:53.221 --> 00:10:56.725
  • "i pray above all things."
  • 00:10:56.725 --> 00:10:59.894
  • This is pretty powerful because he says, "this is the top of
  • 00:10:59.894 --> 00:11:03.498
  • My prayer."
  • 00:11:03.498 --> 00:11:05.133
  • "above all things"--wow, above all things, my prayer is that
  • 00:11:05.133 --> 00:11:10.605
  • "you prosper and be in health."
  • 00:11:10.605 --> 00:11:15.610
  • So there is a soul-health connection we're going to
  • 00:11:15.610 --> 00:11:19.314
  • Look at.
  • 00:11:19.314 --> 00:11:20.682
  • "that you prosper," that you be whole.
  • 00:11:20.682 --> 00:11:26.121
  • He says, "my my top prayer is that you might be whole,"
  • 00:11:26.121 --> 00:11:29.090
  • Prosper, "that you might be whole," prosper, "that you might
  • 00:11:29.090 --> 00:11:33.361
  • Be successful," whole, prosper.
  • 00:11:33.361 --> 00:11:36.397
  • And he says part of that wholeness and success and
  • 00:11:36.397 --> 00:11:39.634
  • Prosperity is health.
  • 00:11:39.634 --> 00:11:43.571
  • Mmm-mmm.
  • 00:11:43.571 --> 00:11:45.540
  • Talked to y'all about that hamburger this morning.
  • 00:11:45.540 --> 00:11:49.277
  • Huh?
  • 00:11:49.277 --> 00:11:50.612
  • Because there's no exercise routine that's going to defeat
  • 00:11:50.612 --> 00:11:54.549
  • Bad diet.
  • 00:11:54.549 --> 00:12:00.855
  • Oh, lord jesus.
  • 00:12:00.855 --> 00:12:03.925
  • See y'all later, god bless you.
  • 00:12:03.925 --> 00:12:08.630
  • And the best supplement you can take is movement.
  • 00:12:08.630 --> 00:12:15.537
  • Some of y'all need to get up and move.
  • 00:12:15.537 --> 00:12:16.871
  • You're not old, you just need to move.
  • 00:12:16.871 --> 00:12:26.815
  • All right, now where are you coming from this morning?
  • 00:12:26.815 --> 00:12:31.753
  • "i pray above all things that you prosper."
  • 00:12:31.753 --> 00:12:34.889
  • Now the greek word here is a word, "euodoo."
  • 00:12:34.889 --> 00:12:39.360
  • And in this word euodoo, e-u-o-d-o-o, it literally means,
  • 00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:45.767
  • "i pray that you will succeed."
  • 00:12:45.767 --> 00:12:48.570
  • It means to succeed, it means to flourish, it means to grow, it
  • 00:12:48.570 --> 00:12:54.576
  • Means to achieve, it means to thrive.
  • 00:12:54.576 --> 00:13:01.416
  • To succeed, to flourish, to grow, to achieve, to thrive in
  • 00:13:01.416 --> 00:13:09.424
  • All things.
  • 00:13:09.424 --> 00:13:11.793
  • All right, so he wants you to be successful and flourish, and he
  • 00:13:11.793 --> 00:13:17.098
  • Wants you to grow, and he wants you to achieve, and he wants you
  • 00:13:17.098 --> 00:13:21.102
  • To thrive in all things.
  • 00:13:21.102 --> 00:13:23.504
  • Well, what are the all things?
  • 00:13:23.504 --> 00:13:24.873
  • He wants you to be successful in your relationship, in
  • 00:13:24.873 --> 00:13:28.109
  • Your marriage.
  • 00:13:28.109 --> 00:13:29.444
  • He wants you to be successful in your parenthood.
  • 00:13:29.444 --> 00:13:32.647
  • He wants you to be successful in your finances.
  • 00:13:32.647 --> 00:13:35.383
  • He wants you to be successful in your career.
  • 00:13:35.383 --> 00:13:37.919
  • He wants you to be successful physically.
  • 00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:40.154
  • He wants you to be successful in your health, your joy, your
  • 00:13:40.154 --> 00:13:44.025
  • Peace, your security, your mindset, your attitude,
  • 00:13:44.025 --> 00:13:48.730
  • Your character.
  • 00:13:48.730 --> 00:13:50.431
  • Look at this.
  • 00:13:50.431 --> 00:13:51.799
  • It's the thing everybody's pursuing, but god is ready
  • 00:13:51.799 --> 00:13:56.204
  • To...work with you to have all these things.
  • 00:13:56.204 --> 00:14:00.208
  • This is the abundant life that he came so you can have.
  • 00:14:00.208 --> 00:14:04.145
  • "the thief comes to kill, steal, and destroy," but he says, "i
  • 00:14:04.145 --> 00:14:06.915
  • Have come that you might have life, and have it more
  • 00:14:06.915 --> 00:14:09.317
  • Abundantly, to the full, until it overflows."
  • 00:14:09.317 --> 00:14:13.154
  • Now, that's not to say just because, you know, the apostle
  • 00:14:13.154 --> 00:14:17.725
  • Prays that you might be successful or whole in all of
  • 00:14:17.725 --> 00:14:21.129
  • These areas, that's not to say you're not going to have
  • 00:14:21.129 --> 00:14:24.732
  • Confrontation by the devil.
  • 00:14:24.732 --> 00:14:26.467
  • That's not to say that you're not going to have trouble.
  • 00:14:26.467 --> 00:14:29.304
  • The bible says, "in this world, you'll have tribulation, but be
  • 00:14:29.304 --> 00:14:31.506
  • Of good cheer."
  • 00:14:31.506 --> 00:14:32.840
  • He said, "they that live godly shall suffer persecution."
  • 00:14:32.840 --> 00:14:35.476
  • That doesn't erase any of that, and that doesn't erase it and
  • 00:14:35.476 --> 00:14:38.012
  • Go away.
  • 00:14:38.012 --> 00:14:39.380
  • What he says is "i want you to know that this is available
  • 00:14:39.380 --> 00:14:41.516
  • To you.
  • 00:14:41.516 --> 00:14:42.850
  • Rest here, stand here, i want you to embrace this, and when
  • 00:14:42.850 --> 00:14:49.057
  • The fight comes, don't let go of it."
  • 00:14:49.057 --> 00:14:53.461
  • Doesn't mean you're not going to have trouble.
  • 00:14:53.461 --> 00:14:55.430
  • As long as you're here, you're going to have
  • 00:14:55.430 --> 00:14:56.898
  • Some confrontation.
  • 00:14:56.898 --> 00:14:58.433
  • But your job is to maintain your grip and to maintain your stance
  • 00:14:58.433 --> 00:15:03.171
  • On the finished works of jesus, and i tell you that your
  • 00:15:03.171 --> 00:15:06.874
  • Deliverance, your wholeness, and your prosperity is finished, and
  • 00:15:06.874 --> 00:15:10.545
  • What we do is stand to it, we rest in it, we labor to remain
  • 00:15:10.545 --> 00:15:16.250
  • At rest in what's already finished.
  • 00:15:16.250 --> 00:15:18.486
  • It's a done deal.
  • 00:15:18.486 --> 00:15:20.722
  • It's finished.
  • 00:15:20.722 --> 00:15:23.891
  • You walk all of these things from a place of wholeness.
  • 00:15:23.891 --> 00:15:29.397
  • All of these things come from a place of wholeness.
  • 00:15:29.397 --> 00:15:32.066
  • Nothing missing and nothing broken.
  • 00:15:32.066 --> 00:15:34.402
  • Soul prosperity is a soul in alignment with the finished
  • 00:15:34.402 --> 00:15:38.706
  • Works of christ, a soul that's at rest.
  • 00:15:38.706 --> 00:15:44.779
  • Mmm, a soul that is at rest.
  • 00:15:44.779 --> 00:15:51.619
  • Hmm.
  • 00:15:51.619 --> 00:15:54.155
  • Now i know how my soul does, and i just don't want you to stand
  • 00:15:54.155 --> 00:15:57.592
  • Up here talking about, "well, yeah, i got my soul at rest."
  • 00:15:57.592 --> 00:15:59.527
  • Boy, please.
  • 00:15:59.527 --> 00:16:02.597
  • A soul that is at rest.
  • 00:16:02.597 --> 00:16:06.467
  • How many of you can recall believing something that jesus
  • 00:16:06.467 --> 00:16:10.071
  • Said he finished, and then one day you wake up, and you're
  • 00:16:10.071 --> 00:16:12.807
  • Being challenged in that area?
  • 00:16:12.807 --> 00:16:15.843
  • Okay, so what do i do when i'm challenged in that area?
  • 00:16:15.843 --> 00:16:19.013
  • I know it's finished, but i'm being challenged in that area.
  • 00:16:19.013 --> 00:16:22.650
  • Maybe because of a storm that i went through.
  • 00:16:22.650 --> 00:16:25.653
  • Maybe because a situation that happened, it knocked my
  • 00:16:25.653 --> 00:16:29.857
  • Satellite dish offline.
  • 00:16:29.857 --> 00:16:33.294
  • And god hasn't changed.
  • 00:16:33.294 --> 00:16:35.196
  • You're still righteous, you're still all the things that he's
  • 00:16:35.196 --> 00:16:37.298
  • Finished, but we've got to know when to climb on top of the roof
  • 00:16:37.298 --> 00:16:41.636
  • And adjust the satellite, to get in alignment.
  • 00:16:41.636 --> 00:16:46.541
  • And when you're resting in the finished works of jesus, that
  • 00:16:46.541 --> 00:16:50.478
  • Means you are in alignment with the finished works of jesus.
  • 00:16:50.478 --> 00:16:54.348
  • When you're resting in the finished works of jesus, resting
  • 00:16:54.348 --> 00:16:58.586
  • In righteousness means, "i am righteous no matter how i feel."
  • 00:16:58.586 --> 00:17:02.523
  • Resting in redemption.
  • 00:17:02.523 --> 00:17:04.392
  • "i have been redeemed, i am forgiven, and i am resting
  • 00:17:04.392 --> 00:17:07.328
  • In that."
  • 00:17:07.328 --> 00:17:08.696
  • Now your enemies come into your soul, "no you're not, no you're
  • 00:17:08.696 --> 00:17:11.332
  • Not, you know you can't.
  • 00:17:11.332 --> 00:17:12.700
  • I don't know why you're resting in your righteousness.
  • 00:17:12.700 --> 00:17:14.302
  • Do you realize how you carried yourself when--that conversation
  • 00:17:14.302 --> 00:17:17.138
  • With you and your husband, you see how you carried yourself
  • 00:17:17.138 --> 00:17:18.973
  • With that?"
  • 00:17:18.973 --> 00:17:20.308
  • The enemy's job is to try to bring condemnation, try to
  • 00:17:20.308 --> 00:17:22.610
  • Bring doubt.
  • 00:17:22.610 --> 00:17:23.945
  • Just because he tries to bring all those things doesn't mean
  • 00:17:23.945 --> 00:17:26.781
  • You relinquish the resistance and just let him have his way.
  • 00:17:26.781 --> 00:17:32.186
  • You're christians, you always resist.
  • 00:17:32.186 --> 00:17:34.188
  • "satan, i resist you!"
  • 00:17:34.188 --> 00:17:35.556
  • Now, what does the bible say?
  • 00:17:35.556 --> 00:17:36.891
  • "submit yourself to god, resist the devil," and what'll happen?
  • 00:17:36.891 --> 00:17:39.227
  • He'll flee.
  • 00:17:39.227 --> 00:17:40.595
  • And so, as he comes, stand!
  • 00:17:40.595 --> 00:17:43.030
  • He ain't going to stay long.
  • 00:17:43.030 --> 00:17:45.600
  • And the quicker you jump to your stance, the quicker he's going
  • 00:17:45.600 --> 00:17:49.370
  • To leave, because he's going to make an announcement to the
  • 00:17:49.370 --> 00:17:51.739
  • Demons, "ain't no use y'all going in there, i can't get them
  • 00:17:51.739 --> 00:17:53.875
  • To move.
  • 00:17:53.875 --> 00:17:55.209
  • I can't get them to move.
  • 00:17:55.209 --> 00:17:56.544
  • I can't get them to move.
  • 00:17:56.544 --> 00:17:57.912
  • I tempted them to fall, they fell, then i tried to turn
  • 00:17:57.912 --> 00:18:00.648
  • Around and condemn them with what i tempted them with, and
  • 00:18:00.648 --> 00:18:03.417
  • They're still saying they're righteous.
  • 00:18:03.417 --> 00:18:06.454
  • They're still saying they're righteous."
  • 00:18:09.390 --> 00:18:13.461
  • My god, a prosperous soul.
  • 00:18:13.461 --> 00:18:16.330
  • That's where the attack is.
  • 00:18:16.330 --> 00:18:19.033
  • "lord, i receive the finished works of wholeness
  • 00:18:19.033 --> 00:18:21.435
  • And prosperity."
  • 00:18:21.435 --> 00:18:22.803
  • And you go, and somebody calling you talking about a bill you
  • 00:18:22.803 --> 00:18:25.306
  • Didn't even know you had.
  • 00:18:25.306 --> 00:18:28.776
  • Well, that's when you hold tight to the finished works, and that
  • 00:18:28.776 --> 00:18:35.183
  • Means you've got to do some laboring.
  • 00:18:35.183 --> 00:18:36.584
  • You might have to sing about what's finished, meditate on
  • 00:18:36.584 --> 00:18:40.454
  • Scriptures about what's finished, go listen to this
  • 00:18:40.454 --> 00:18:43.624
  • Teaching and others about what's finished, but you're letting the
  • 00:18:43.624 --> 00:18:46.527
  • Devil know, "listen, it's still finished.
  • 00:18:46.527 --> 00:18:49.730
  • I'm just offline just for a moment.
  • 00:18:49.730 --> 00:18:51.432
  • I'm getting back.
  • 00:18:51.432 --> 00:18:52.767
  • It's still finished.
  • 00:18:52.767 --> 00:18:54.135
  • The lights are off, i'm just turning the generator back on.
  • 00:18:54.135 --> 00:18:55.670
  • It's still finished."
  • 00:18:55.670 --> 00:18:57.371
  • You need to let the devil know, "oh, what you're telling me
  • 00:18:57.371 --> 00:19:00.208
  • Doesn't undo what jesus has already done.
  • 00:19:00.208 --> 00:19:03.644
  • Your temptations are not strong enough to undo what jesus has
  • 00:19:03.644 --> 00:19:08.816
  • Done when he shed his blood!"
  • 00:19:08.816 --> 00:19:10.451
  • When he said, "it is finished," ain't nothing in hell is strong
  • 00:19:10.451 --> 00:19:13.821
  • Enough to be able to unfinish what jesus has finished.
  • 00:19:13.821 --> 00:19:20.728
  • Somebody shout, "it is finished!"
  • 00:19:20.728 --> 00:19:22.897
  • But the soul, the soul, the soul.
  • 00:19:26.634 --> 00:19:31.639
  • I might have told y'all last week about, we are spirit beings
  • 00:19:31.639 --> 00:19:36.444
  • Having a human experience, having a human experience.
  • 00:19:36.444 --> 00:19:44.385
  • Your spirit is strong, your spirit is like god, your spirit
  • 00:19:44.385 --> 00:19:47.822
  • Is perfect.
  • 00:19:47.822 --> 00:19:50.091
  • Hah.
  • 00:19:50.091 --> 00:19:51.425
  • And it's your spirit and your body in this world having a
  • 00:19:51.425 --> 00:19:56.497
  • Human experience, and then there's a battle for the
  • 00:19:56.497 --> 00:20:00.635
  • Driver's seat.
  • 00:20:00.635 --> 00:20:03.537
  • This perfect man is trying to give you some stuff, and the--
  • 00:20:03.537 --> 00:20:06.774
  • Renewing your mind is trying to give you some stuff, and then
  • 00:20:06.774 --> 00:20:09.844
  • The world and life is trying to give you some stuff.
  • 00:20:09.844 --> 00:20:12.079
  • Be careful of all these podcast people, because they don't come
  • 00:20:12.079 --> 00:20:15.716
  • From a place of spirit, they come from a place of just life,
  • 00:20:15.716 --> 00:20:20.755
  • And we're spirit beings doing life, and what we have can
  • 00:20:20.755 --> 00:20:24.859
  • Defeat life unless you conform to life.
  • 00:20:24.859 --> 00:20:32.800
  • Be not conformed to this world.
  • 00:20:32.800 --> 00:20:41.075
  • I am righteous.
  • 00:20:41.075 --> 00:20:45.046
  • Life says not based on--life.
  • 00:20:45.046 --> 00:20:47.982
  • Life is so interesting because life wants to give you another
  • 00:20:47.982 --> 00:20:51.252
  • Definition of truth.
  • 00:20:51.252 --> 00:20:55.990
  • And we already have a definition for truth: jesus, full of grace
  • 00:20:55.990 --> 00:20:59.694
  • And truth.
  • 00:20:59.694 --> 00:21:01.962
  • We already have--we already-- we have it, but he--and then it
  • 00:21:01.962 --> 00:21:04.932
  • Goes from what's true, everything dealing with god and
  • 00:21:04.932 --> 00:21:10.137
  • Everything that comes from god is true, and life says, "no,
  • 00:21:10.137 --> 00:21:14.342
  • It's only true if it's in life, and if a majority of the people
  • 00:21:14.342 --> 00:21:19.313
  • Say it's true, and then you define it as 'my truth.'"
  • 00:21:19.313 --> 00:21:22.717
  • 'my truth' is an attempt to to go against the truth, and the
  • 00:21:22.717 --> 00:21:27.755
  • Truth is god.
  • 00:21:27.755 --> 00:21:29.090
  • God is the truth because everything came out of god.
  • 00:21:29.090 --> 00:21:32.226
  • Everything that's seen came out of god,
  • 00:21:32.226 --> 00:21:33.894
  • Everything unseen came out of god.
  • 00:21:33.894 --> 00:21:36.097
  • You can't--ain't nothing more true than god is!
  • 00:21:36.097 --> 00:21:39.567
  • Life even came out of god!
  • 00:21:39.567 --> 00:21:41.469
  • How you going to give the definition of truth to what
  • 00:21:41.469 --> 00:21:45.439
  • Truth created?
  • 00:21:45.439 --> 00:21:46.807
  • You could--creation is not the truth, the creator is the truth,
  • 00:21:46.807 --> 00:21:49.310
  • And--god.
  • 00:21:49.310 --> 00:21:59.353
  • This is the one area satan hates me to deal with because it's his
  • 00:22:00.955 --> 00:22:05.025
  • Battleground, and he blinds the minds of those who believe not
  • 00:22:05.025 --> 00:22:11.399
  • So that the light of the glorious gospel won't come
  • 00:22:11.399 --> 00:22:14.635
  • Into them.
  • 00:22:14.635 --> 00:22:18.139
  • Life's not supposed to do you.
  • 00:22:18.139 --> 00:22:24.745
  • "hey man, how you doing?"
  • 00:22:24.745 --> 00:22:26.080
  • "you know, it's life."
  • 00:22:26.080 --> 00:22:28.616
  • Life's not supposed to do you.
  • 00:22:28.616 --> 00:22:30.651
  • You do life.
  • 00:22:30.651 --> 00:22:33.354
  • And you do life in a more excellent way.
  • 00:22:33.354 --> 00:22:36.857
  • You do life the way people who are being done by life
  • 00:22:36.857 --> 00:22:40.261
  • Don't understand.
  • 00:22:40.261 --> 00:22:41.962
  • They don't understand how you can be this way when life
  • 00:22:41.962 --> 00:22:47.201
  • Said this...
  • 00:22:47.201 --> 00:22:48.536
  • Well, because you're operating on a higher realm than life.
  • 00:22:48.536 --> 00:22:53.874
  • They don't understand how somebody that didn't go to
  • 00:22:53.874 --> 00:22:56.343
  • College can end up more successful than those that got
  • 00:22:56.343 --> 00:23:00.014
  • Three degrees in life, because see, you're sitting doing life.
  • 00:23:00.014 --> 00:23:09.323
  • It's just like, people do life like church folks do church.
  • 00:23:09.323 --> 00:23:13.694
  • You know how to do church, you're trying to learn how to do
  • 00:23:13.694 --> 00:23:17.064
  • Life, but you don't know how to do truth.
  • 00:23:17.064 --> 00:23:19.867
  • Announcer: if you feel like you need to perform to be accepted,
  • 00:23:24.104 --> 00:23:26.674

  • 00:23:26.674 --> 00:23:30.377
