  • Creflo dollar: so why are we sweating like sinners to receive

  • What has already been done for us?
  • 00:00:17.864 --> 00:00:20.834
  • I'm a part of the family, and you have to remind the devil
  • 00:00:20.834 --> 00:00:24.037
  • Of that.
  • 00:00:24.037 --> 00:00:26.206
  • When he comes with different strategies and attacks to try to
  • 00:00:26.206 --> 00:00:29.409
  • Bring you down, you have to remind him, "okay, so you do
  • 00:00:29.409 --> 00:00:31.811
  • Know you're messing with a royal?
  • 00:00:31.811 --> 00:00:34.447
  • Just 'cause i don't have the royal attire on.
  • 00:00:38.418 --> 00:00:42.722
  • You better ask somebody."
  • 00:00:42.722 --> 00:00:44.190
  • Like, i tell people sometimes, "i'm from collipark."
  • 00:00:47.894 --> 00:00:50.130

  • A citizen of heaven!
  • 00:00:53.066 --> 00:00:55.902

  • Creflo: ephesians chapter 1, verses 3 through 14 in the nlt.
  • 00:02:11.911 --> 00:02:20.253
  • Wow.
  • 00:02:20.253 --> 00:02:22.789
  • Ephesians 1, verses 3 through 14.
  • 00:02:22.789 --> 00:02:31.564
  • "all praise to god, the father of our lord jesus christ," who
  • 00:02:31.564 --> 00:02:35.602
  • Has, past tense, "blessed us with every spiritual blessing in
  • 00:02:35.602 --> 00:02:40.139
  • Heavenly places."
  • 00:02:40.139 --> 00:02:42.942
  • So i've been called to every spiritual blessing.
  • 00:02:42.942 --> 00:02:46.479
  • It's in the heavenly realm, because we are united
  • 00:02:50.550 --> 00:02:53.219
  • With christ.
  • 00:02:53.219 --> 00:02:55.255
  • We are--because i've been united with christ.
  • 00:02:55.255 --> 00:02:57.991
  • Everything about this inheritance, everything about
  • 00:02:57.991 --> 00:03:02.095
  • This adoption comes because i'm united with christ.
  • 00:03:02.095 --> 00:03:08.968
  • "even before he made the world, god loved us."
  • 00:03:08.968 --> 00:03:16.175
  • He decided to love you.
  • 00:03:16.175 --> 00:03:19.412
  • And if you came out crazy, he still decided to love you.
  • 00:03:19.412 --> 00:03:24.817
  • "god loved us and he chose us."
  • 00:03:28.488 --> 00:03:31.224
  • He chose us in christ.
  • 00:03:31.224 --> 00:03:33.293
  • He chose us to be holy.
  • 00:03:33.293 --> 00:03:36.596
  • He chose you to be holy.
  • 00:03:36.596 --> 00:03:39.532
  • Now you're trying to be--you're trying to become holy, and the
  • 00:03:39.532 --> 00:03:43.369
  • Way you see that change in your life is if you accept that i
  • 00:03:43.369 --> 00:03:47.240
  • Have been born with this undeserved privilege, i am holy.
  • 00:03:47.240 --> 00:03:51.711
  • Even though you ain't doing nothing holy, "i am holy" is
  • 00:03:51.711 --> 00:03:54.914
  • Going to start changing what you're doing.
  • 00:03:54.914 --> 00:03:57.083
  • Your stance is going to start changing your state.
  • 00:03:57.083 --> 00:04:03.790
  • "god loved us and he chose us in christ to be holy," and watch
  • 00:04:03.790 --> 00:04:08.428
  • This, "and he chose us to be without fault," watch this, "in
  • 00:04:08.428 --> 00:04:12.365
  • His eyes."
  • 00:04:12.365 --> 00:04:15.001
  • You still pulling up all of your faults in your day-to-day walk,
  • 00:04:15.001 --> 00:04:20.239
  • And god chose you to be without fault in his eyes, so we got to
  • 00:04:20.239 --> 00:04:24.677
  • Start seeing ourselves like god sees us.
  • 00:04:24.677 --> 00:04:27.547
  • "yeah, but brother dollar, you don't know what i did."
  • 00:04:31.684 --> 00:04:34.420
  • I'm telling you, you're in life right now, that is your state,
  • 00:04:34.420 --> 00:04:39.158
  • But you have a stance that's going to change your state,
  • 00:04:39.158 --> 00:04:42.662
  • Glory to god.
  • 00:04:42.662 --> 00:04:44.030
  • It's a journey.
  • 00:04:44.030 --> 00:04:45.365
  • You're going from college park to california, it's a journey.
  • 00:04:45.365 --> 00:04:47.433
  • There are a lot of things that happen from college park
  • 00:04:47.433 --> 00:04:49.369
  • To california.
  • 00:04:49.369 --> 00:04:50.703
  • You might run out of gas.
  • 00:04:50.703 --> 00:04:52.071
  • The engine might overheat.
  • 00:04:52.071 --> 00:04:53.406
  • You might need to pull over to get some work done.
  • 00:04:53.406 --> 00:04:55.742
  • You might need to pull over and get some rest.
  • 00:04:55.742 --> 00:04:57.377
  • You might get lost, hallelujah.
  • 00:04:57.377 --> 00:04:59.479
  • But be assured, you're going to arrive in california.
  • 00:04:59.479 --> 00:05:06.018
  • So listen, you don't need to judge me because i had to
  • 00:05:06.018 --> 00:05:08.788
  • Pull over.
  • 00:05:08.788 --> 00:05:11.290
  • Don't send me to hell because my car overheated.
  • 00:05:11.290 --> 00:05:16.062
  • Don't condemn me to hell because i had--i got lost.
  • 00:05:16.062 --> 00:05:20.666
  • And that's what christian people do.
  • 00:05:24.036 --> 00:05:25.605
  • We try--why are we trying to send people to hell all
  • 00:05:25.605 --> 00:05:29.509
  • The time?
  • 00:05:29.509 --> 00:05:30.977
  • "oh, i know they're going to hell.
  • 00:05:30.977 --> 00:05:32.645
  • You sure going to hell for that.
  • 00:05:32.645 --> 00:05:34.180
  • You sure--," honey, i'm on a journey, you understand?
  • 00:05:34.180 --> 00:05:37.383
  • I am on a journey to walking worthy to this thing that god
  • 00:05:37.383 --> 00:05:43.256
  • Has called me to from the foundations of the world.
  • 00:05:43.256 --> 00:05:46.225
  • Please reserve your judgment for yourself.
  • 00:05:46.225 --> 00:05:49.662
  • I remind you, i'm on my way to california, hallelujah.
  • 00:05:53.800 --> 00:05:58.371
  • I haven't arrived there yet, but i will show up.
  • 00:05:58.371 --> 00:06:07.680
  • Stop it!
  • 00:06:09.182 --> 00:06:11.150
  • "well, i don't agree with what he said."
  • 00:06:11.150 --> 00:06:12.485
  • Stop it. stop it.
  • 00:06:12.485 --> 00:06:14.754
  • Stop it.
  • 00:06:14.754 --> 00:06:16.689
  • I just believe you're supposed to preach what you believe.
  • 00:06:16.689 --> 00:06:19.759
  • And sometimes people get way ahead of you, and just 'cause
  • 00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:22.361
  • You don't understand it--see, you just left college park.
  • 00:06:22.361 --> 00:06:27.700
  • That's stuff you don't understand.
  • 00:06:27.700 --> 00:06:29.035
  • You don't know that the bridge went out, and i had to get siri
  • 00:06:29.035 --> 00:06:31.938
  • To redirect me and do what i need to do.
  • 00:06:31.938 --> 00:06:34.040
  • And the holy ghost, hallelujah, knows how to take you around a
  • 00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:37.677
  • Wreck, knows how to take you around a situation.
  • 00:06:37.677 --> 00:06:43.783
  • [speaking in tongues]
  • 00:06:47.320 --> 00:06:50.423
  • Ooh, jesus.
  • 00:06:52.492 --> 00:06:54.827
  • Part of my calling before the foundation of the world is to be
  • 00:06:57.497 --> 00:07:01.133
  • Holy and without fault.
  • 00:07:01.133 --> 00:07:04.403
  • And that's a journey.
  • 00:07:04.403 --> 00:07:05.771
  • I'm on my way.
  • 00:07:05.771 --> 00:07:07.106
  • In my state, in my life, i'm on my way to holiness and with
  • 00:07:07.106 --> 00:07:11.344
  • No fault.
  • 00:07:11.344 --> 00:07:13.012
  • So have a good time right now, because when i fall i
  • 00:07:13.012 --> 00:07:16.215
  • Shall arise.
  • 00:07:16.215 --> 00:07:19.485
  • Verse 5, "so god decided in advance to adopt us into his
  • 00:07:23.656 --> 00:07:33.332
  • Own family."
  • 00:07:33.332 --> 00:07:37.236
  • Oh, creflo christ dollar.
  • 00:07:37.236 --> 00:07:40.973
  • [congregation laughing]
  • 00:07:40.973 --> 00:07:44.744
  • It wasn't what i did, it wasn't what you did.
  • 00:07:47.079 --> 00:07:50.483
  • He decided that every believer was going to be adopted as sons
  • 00:07:50.483 --> 00:07:57.924
  • And daughters.
  • 00:07:57.924 --> 00:07:59.725
  • He made a decision to do that before the foundations of
  • 00:07:59.725 --> 00:08:02.562
  • The world.
  • 00:08:02.562 --> 00:08:04.530
  • So why are we sweating like sinners to receive what has
  • 00:08:04.530 --> 00:08:10.803
  • Already been done for us?
  • 00:08:10.803 --> 00:08:13.306
  • I'm a part of the family.
  • 00:08:13.306 --> 00:08:15.007
  • And you have to remind the devil of that.
  • 00:08:15.007 --> 00:08:18.644
  • When he comes with different strategies and attacks to try to
  • 00:08:18.644 --> 00:08:21.847
  • Bring you down, you have to remind him, "okay, so you do
  • 00:08:21.847 --> 00:08:24.250
  • Know you're messing with a royal.
  • 00:08:24.250 --> 00:08:26.886
  • Just 'cause i don't have the royal attire on.
  • 00:08:30.856 --> 00:08:35.194
  • You better ask somebody."
  • 00:08:35.194 --> 00:08:40.333
  • Like, i tell people sometimes, "i'm from collipark."
  • 00:08:40.333 --> 00:08:42.568
  • You need to tell folks, "i'm from heaven, i'm a citizen, i'm
  • 00:08:42.568 --> 00:08:45.504
  • A citizen of heaven.
  • 00:08:45.504 --> 00:08:48.341
  • You don't know who you're messing with.
  • 00:08:48.341 --> 00:08:49.675
  • I'm a royal!"
  • 00:08:49.675 --> 00:08:56.515
  • Who says so?
  • 00:08:56.515 --> 00:08:57.883
  • God decided, in advance.
  • 00:08:57.883 --> 00:09:00.953
  • "he adopted us in his own family by bringing us to himself."
  • 00:09:00.953 --> 00:09:04.824
  • How did he do it?
  • 00:09:04.824 --> 00:09:06.192
  • "through jesus christ.
  • 00:09:06.192 --> 00:09:07.593
  • This is what he wanted to do."
  • 00:09:07.593 --> 00:09:11.731
  • He wanted to do it.
  • 00:09:11.731 --> 00:09:16.736
  • I don't care how crazy it's been for you.
  • 00:09:14.133 --> 00:09:18.704
  • I don't care how bad it's been for you.
  • 00:09:18.704 --> 00:09:20.773
  • I don't care all of the stuff you've ever gone through, remind
  • 00:09:20.773 --> 00:09:23.976
  • Yourself god wanted you.
  • 00:09:23.976 --> 00:09:27.580
  • Why did you want--why do you want me, god?
  • 00:09:31.517 --> 00:09:34.553
  • Why did you want me?
  • 00:09:34.553 --> 00:09:36.322
  • He said, "it gave him great pleasure," to want you before
  • 00:09:36.322 --> 00:09:42.461
  • You were even born.
  • 00:09:42.461 --> 00:09:47.033
  • [speaking in tongues]
  • 00:09:49.101 --> 00:09:52.471
  • So we praise god.
  • 00:09:55.408 --> 00:09:58.244
  • I said we praise god.
  • 00:09:58.244 --> 00:10:02.314
  • Not for the car necessarily, not for your house necessarily, not
  • 00:10:02.314 --> 00:10:05.718
  • For your promotion necessarily.
  • 00:10:05.718 --> 00:10:07.486
  • See, all that stuff is supposed to be normal for royals,
  • 00:10:07.486 --> 00:10:10.156
  • You understand?
  • 00:10:10.156 --> 00:10:11.524
  • You wasting your time, wasting your faith on stuff that just is
  • 00:10:11.524 --> 00:10:14.226
  • Supposed to be yours anyway.
  • 00:10:14.226 --> 00:10:15.928
  • You know, what do you believe in god for?
  • 00:10:15.928 --> 00:10:17.263
  • "a car."
  • 00:10:17.263 --> 00:10:18.631
  • That's supposed to be normal.
  • 00:10:18.631 --> 00:10:19.965
  • Is that as high as you can go?
  • 00:10:19.965 --> 00:10:21.333
  • Nah, "we praise god for his glorious grace that he has
  • 00:10:21.333 --> 00:10:24.203
  • Poured out on us who belong to his dear son."
  • 00:10:24.203 --> 00:10:28.541
  • I praise him for his grace!
  • 00:10:28.541 --> 00:10:30.476
  • I praise him for his unrestricted operation of
  • 00:10:30.476 --> 00:10:34.246
  • His love.
  • 00:10:34.246 --> 00:10:38.417
  • [speaking in tongues]
  • 00:10:38.417 --> 00:10:39.785
  • I'm gonna try to make it through this thing.
  • 00:10:39.785 --> 00:10:41.187
  • I'm trying to get through this.
  • 00:10:41.187 --> 00:10:42.588
  • [speaking in tongues]
  • 00:10:42.588 --> 00:10:44.090
  • Oh my.
  • 00:10:44.090 --> 00:10:45.558
  • [laughs]
  • 00:10:45.558 --> 00:10:47.960
  • Hallelujah, glory to god.
  • 00:10:47.960 --> 00:10:50.029
  • Hallelujah, praise him for his grace.
  • 00:10:50.029 --> 00:10:53.099
  • When i was on my way to hell, didn't have no god on my side.
  • 00:10:53.099 --> 00:10:58.304
  • Couldn't figure out how to get rid of crazy.
  • 00:10:58.304 --> 00:11:01.173
  • I praised him for his grace that reached down and saved me when i
  • 00:11:01.173 --> 00:11:06.345
  • Didn't deserve it, healed me when i didn't deserve it, made a
  • 00:11:06.345 --> 00:11:10.015
  • Way out of no way when i didn't deserve it.
  • 00:11:10.015 --> 00:11:12.651
  • Glory to god, i praise him for his grace!
  • 00:11:12.651 --> 00:11:17.156
  • Oh my goodness.
  • 00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:23.529
  • I praise him for his grace.
  • 00:11:23.529 --> 00:11:25.364
  • All that stuff he did before the foundations of the world, that
  • 00:11:28.634 --> 00:11:31.570
  • Was by his grace.
  • 00:11:31.570 --> 00:11:35.808
  • That was by his grace.
  • 00:11:35.808 --> 00:11:39.078
  • The wealth of his mercy!
  • 00:11:39.078 --> 00:11:47.753
  • He is so--[laughs].
  • 00:11:47.753 --> 00:11:50.623
  • "he is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our
  • 00:11:50.623 --> 00:11:59.799
  • Freedom with the blood
  • 00:11:59.799 --> 00:12:02.802
  • Of his son and forgave our sins."
  • 00:12:02.802 --> 00:12:11.010
  • So you're going around trying to get god to do what he's
  • 00:12:11.076 --> 00:12:14.380
  • Already done.
  • 00:12:14.380 --> 00:12:16.649
  • "he has showered his kindness on us, along with all wisdom
  • 00:12:19.418 --> 00:12:27.459
  • And understanding."
  • 00:12:27.459 --> 00:12:28.828
  • So before the foundation of the world, he decided that "i'm
  • 00:12:28.828 --> 00:12:32.131
  • Going to give you wisdom and understanding."
  • 00:12:32.131 --> 00:12:34.867
  • So somewhere on the inside of you, there's an ability to know
  • 00:12:34.867 --> 00:12:39.004
  • What to do when you don't know what to do.
  • 00:12:39.004 --> 00:12:44.243
  • All you got to do is pause and chill.
  • 00:12:44.243 --> 00:12:46.979
  • It's going to be alright.
  • 00:12:46.979 --> 00:12:48.347
  • Just tell yourself, "it's going to be alright, god's working
  • 00:12:48.347 --> 00:12:50.316
  • That thing alright."
  • 00:12:50.316 --> 00:12:51.650
  • And then you start praying a little bit, and the ability to
  • 00:12:51.650 --> 00:12:54.153
  • Know what to do when you don't know what to do has already been
  • 00:12:54.153 --> 00:12:57.623
  • Given to you royals.
  • 00:12:57.623 --> 00:13:02.127
  • Verse 9, "god has now revealed to us his mysterious will,"
  • 00:13:02.127 --> 00:13:12.171
  • His mystery.
  • 00:13:13.606 --> 00:13:14.974
  • God has revealed to us his mystery, "regarding christ,
  • 00:13:14.974 --> 00:13:19.578
  • Which is to fulfill his own good plan."
  • 00:13:19.578 --> 00:13:25.951
  • We, as folks that are here and joining me to minister to you,
  • 00:13:25.951 --> 00:13:29.989
  • We are--we are honored to be
  • 00:13:29.989 --> 00:13:35.327
  • God's tool, to minister to you
  • 00:13:35.327 --> 00:13:43.035
  • The mystery of god, the mysteries of god.
  • 00:13:43.035 --> 00:13:50.542
  • Which is why you got to stop coming to church to learn
  • 00:13:54.680 --> 00:13:58.617
  • Something you already know.
  • 00:13:58.617 --> 00:14:02.755
  • Like you're scared when you hear something you don't--you ain't
  • 00:14:02.755 --> 00:14:04.690
  • Never heard before.
  • 00:14:04.690 --> 00:14:06.125
  • You ain't supposed to know some.
  • 00:14:06.125 --> 00:14:07.459
  • So why you keep coming to church just to hear what you
  • 00:14:07.459 --> 00:14:09.595
  • Already heard?
  • 00:14:09.595 --> 00:14:12.898
  • You're gonna hear some stuff.
  • 00:14:12.898 --> 00:14:15.768
  • That's a part of the mystery.
  • 00:14:15.768 --> 00:14:20.773
  • You're gonna hear some stuff.
  • 00:14:20.773 --> 00:14:23.542
  • Some of you ain't ready for it.
  • 00:14:23.542 --> 00:14:26.779
  • If i were to tell you that god started this whole thing out
  • 00:14:26.779 --> 00:14:30.516
  • With rhema word.
  • 00:14:30.516 --> 00:14:32.851
  • Wasn't no bible.
  • 00:14:32.851 --> 00:14:40.125
  • There wasn't any bible.
  • 00:14:38.190 --> 00:14:41.593
  • It wasn't written down, wasn't no letters put together.
  • 00:14:41.593 --> 00:14:43.829
  • They all moved because they heard god's word, and they all
  • 00:14:47.399 --> 00:14:53.539
  • Got results because they heard god's word.
  • 00:14:53.539 --> 00:14:58.844
  • And then god said, "i got to start a process.
  • 00:14:58.844 --> 00:15:01.113
  • Let me put a book together and give them the word that they
  • 00:15:01.113 --> 00:15:06.618
  • Heard without a book.
  • 00:15:06.618 --> 00:15:08.520
  • Let me record the rhema word into a logos form."
  • 00:15:08.520 --> 00:15:18.263
  • And so, we got in the word, but then we cut off our ear and
  • 00:15:18.263 --> 00:15:22.801
  • Decided, "i can't hear nothing because i got the written word."
  • 00:15:22.801 --> 00:15:26.705
  • Now the written word is a step back into logos.
  • 00:15:26.705 --> 00:15:31.110
  • Y'all don't understand what i'm saying.
  • 00:15:31.110 --> 00:15:34.113
  • Breakthrough doesn't come because you know this scripture.
  • 00:15:34.113 --> 00:15:39.051
  • Breakthrough came because you got a hold to the rhema word
  • 00:15:39.051 --> 00:15:43.288
  • Behind that scripture.
  • 00:15:43.288 --> 00:15:49.895
  • And it's not just by that scripture, it's by that rhema.
  • 00:15:49.895 --> 00:15:53.032
  • And when you heard that rhema, it's god saying to you, "i want
  • 00:15:53.032 --> 00:15:56.835
  • You to do this, and i want you to show up here, and i want you
  • 00:15:56.835 --> 00:16:01.840
  • To stop doing that and start doing this."
  • 00:16:01.840 --> 00:16:03.842
  • And when god speaks a word to you, breakthrough cannot be held
  • 00:16:03.842 --> 00:16:08.514
  • Back, but you started calling everybody demon possessed when
  • 00:16:08.514 --> 00:16:14.453
  • They told you there's a word behind this word.
  • 00:16:14.453 --> 00:16:17.689
  • "i don't know, my bible tells me."
  • 00:16:17.689 --> 00:16:19.224
  • You don't even know that bible.
  • 00:16:19.224 --> 00:16:20.592
  • You're still dripping from baptism, a water baptism, and
  • 00:16:20.592 --> 00:16:23.328
  • You trying to tell somebody who's trying to get--and you
  • 00:16:23.328 --> 00:16:26.999
  • Know what i'm talking about.
  • 00:16:26.999 --> 00:16:32.771
  • I want to hear from the lord.
  • 00:16:32.771 --> 00:16:37.543
  • Tell me what you want me to do.
  • 00:16:37.543 --> 00:16:41.013
  • While i'm walking to the bathroom, say something to me.
  • 00:16:41.013 --> 00:16:43.816
  • I'm believing that while we're preaching to you, you're going
  • 00:16:43.816 --> 00:16:47.352
  • To hear god talk to you while we're talking to you.
  • 00:16:47.352 --> 00:16:50.489
  • And some of those notes you write down, i didn't say it.
  • 00:16:50.489 --> 00:16:53.592
  • It must have been a rhema that just showed up and getting ready
  • 00:16:53.592 --> 00:16:57.696
  • To cause a breakthrough to come in your life.
  • 00:16:57.696 --> 00:17:10.242
  • "and this is the plan: at the right time he will bring
  • 00:17:14.379 --> 00:17:22.821
  • Everything together under the authority of christ--everything
  • 00:17:22.821 --> 00:17:30.095
  • In heaven and everything on the earth," is coming together under
  • 00:17:30.095 --> 00:17:36.001
  • The authority of christ.
  • 00:17:36.001 --> 00:17:38.036
  • You'll no longer be a part of the fableized gospel, where they
  • 00:17:38.036 --> 00:17:44.910
  • Make up rumors and fables to make you go into an "ooh-ah"
  • 00:17:44.910 --> 00:17:49.515
  • Spasm shout, hallelujah.
  • 00:17:49.515 --> 00:17:54.887
  • But everything is going to be under the authority of jesus
  • 00:17:54.887 --> 00:18:01.293
  • Christ, where you're not going to be able to go nowhere without
  • 00:18:01.293 --> 00:18:04.897
  • Hearing his name.
  • 00:18:04.897 --> 00:18:11.537
  • "furthermore," [laughs]
  • 00:18:11.537 --> 00:18:15.674
  • "because we are united with christ, we've received an
  • 00:18:15.674 --> 00:18:19.912
  • Inheritance from god," before the foundations of the world.
  • 00:18:19.912 --> 00:18:25.184
  • You're trying to get god to do something, he's like, "i have
  • 00:18:25.184 --> 00:18:27.553
  • Given you an inheritance."
  • 00:18:27.553 --> 00:18:30.355
  • And you still got him on that little cheap stuff.
  • 00:18:30.355 --> 00:18:32.324
  • "give me a car, pay my bills, and help me to get along with
  • 00:18:32.324 --> 00:18:35.394
  • My--," are you serious?
  • 00:18:35.394 --> 00:18:40.666
  • "we have received an inheritance from god, for he chose us in
  • 00:18:40.666 --> 00:18:46.138
  • Advance, and he makes everything,"
  • 00:18:46.138 --> 00:18:50.242
  • [speaking in tongues]
  • 00:18:50.242 --> 00:18:51.610
  • "he makes everything work out according to his plan,"
  • 00:18:51.610 --> 00:19:00.485
  • Not yours.
  • 00:19:00.485 --> 00:19:04.022
  • So you're trying to get god to work out your plan.
  • 00:19:04.022 --> 00:19:06.858
  • And satan wants to support your plan.
  • 00:19:10.329 --> 00:19:13.398
  • So through the use of mammon, which is the spirit behind
  • 00:19:13.398 --> 00:19:16.735
  • Money, he can seduce you into showing up at places that god's
  • 00:19:16.735 --> 00:19:25.043
  • Plan hadn't designed for you to show up in, but the mammon wants
  • 00:19:25.043 --> 00:19:28.880
  • To get you to a place that's not called there.
  • 00:19:28.880 --> 00:19:34.853
  • All he got to do is figure out how to get somebody to offer you
  • 00:19:34.853 --> 00:19:38.156
  • A million dollars to go work here, and you're like, "forget
  • 00:19:38.156 --> 00:19:41.893
  • About what god said, i got to go here."
  • 00:19:41.893 --> 00:19:43.996
  • But now watch out now, because now you're dealing with a god
  • 00:19:43.996 --> 00:19:46.999
  • Who knows how to work out his plan.
  • 00:19:46.999 --> 00:19:51.770
  • And you'll go there for that million dollars that god didn't
  • 00:19:51.770 --> 00:19:54.806
  • Say nothing to you about, and then make up excuses, "well, i
  • 00:19:54.806 --> 00:19:57.442
  • Can support the gospel better."
  • 00:19:57.442 --> 00:19:59.544
  • You weren't supporting it where you are.
  • 00:19:59.544 --> 00:20:01.179
  • And if you can't do what you do where you are, you sure ain't
  • 00:20:01.179 --> 00:20:04.950
  • Going to do it if you get a promotion somewhere else.
  • 00:20:04.950 --> 00:20:07.219
  • Quit lyin' to yourself.
  • 00:20:07.219 --> 00:20:08.553
  • Quit lyin'!
  • 00:20:08.553 --> 00:20:09.921
  • There's too much lyin' going on in the church.
  • 00:20:09.921 --> 00:20:11.790
  • Quit lyin'!
  • 00:20:11.790 --> 00:20:18.630
  • Dude, i need to calm down, seriously.
  • 00:20:22.467 --> 00:20:29.041
  • He knows how to work out his plan.
  • 00:20:32.844 --> 00:20:35.881
  • I cannot explain to you all the things or why certain
  • 00:20:35.881 --> 00:20:38.317
  • Things happen.
  • 00:20:38.317 --> 00:20:39.685
  • I don't know, i don't know why god allowed those three tumors
  • 00:20:39.685 --> 00:20:43.588
  • To come in my body.
  • 00:20:43.588 --> 00:20:44.956
  • I don't know why i got shingles.
  • 00:20:44.956 --> 00:20:46.625
  • I don't know why i had two and a half years of attack on my body.
  • 00:20:46.625 --> 00:20:51.029
  • I don't know why.
  • 00:20:51.029 --> 00:20:52.397
  • But i know that i can trust god, that no matter what happens, he
  • 00:20:52.397 --> 00:20:57.469
  • Knows how to work out his plan.
  • 00:20:57.469 --> 00:21:05.310
  • "god's purpose was that," and he's talking to, you know, paul
  • 00:21:09.514 --> 00:21:12.851
  • Was a jew referring to himself, "god's purpose was that we jews
  • 00:21:12.851 --> 00:21:15.654
  • Who were the first to trust in christ would bring praise and
  • 00:21:15.654 --> 00:21:18.590
  • Glory to god.
  • 00:21:18.590 --> 00:21:20.625
  • And now you gentiles have also heard the truth."
  • 00:21:20.625 --> 00:21:25.697
  • You gentiles, you non-jewish people, you have also heard the
  • 00:21:25.697 --> 00:21:28.700
  • Truth, "the good news that god saves you.
  • 00:21:28.700 --> 00:21:31.803
  • And when you believed in christ, he identified you as his own by
  • 00:21:31.803 --> 00:21:35.173
  • Giving you the holy spirit, whom he promised long ago."
  • 00:21:35.173 --> 00:21:40.712
  • So the holy ghost showed up as a seal, to guarantee you what
  • 00:21:40.712 --> 00:21:48.787
  • He promised.
  • 00:21:48.787 --> 00:21:52.224
  • "the spirit is god's guarantee that he will give us the
  • 00:21:52.224 --> 00:21:55.227
  • Inheritance he promised and that he has purchased us to be his
  • 00:21:55.227 --> 00:21:58.663
  • Own people."
  • 00:21:58.663 --> 00:22:00.365
  • The holy spirit.
  • 00:22:00.365 --> 00:22:02.100
  • "he did this so that we would praise and glorify him."
  • 00:22:02.100 --> 00:22:09.341
  • We got to praise god.
  • 00:22:09.341 --> 00:22:12.778
  • We got to praise god like we're getting ready to go to heaven
  • 00:22:12.778 --> 00:22:16.882
  • This week.
  • 00:22:16.882 --> 00:22:18.216
  • We got to praise him for his goodness.
  • 00:22:18.216 --> 00:22:20.285
  • We got to praise him for his greatness.
  • 00:22:20.285 --> 00:22:22.621
  • We got to praise him for his grace.
  • 00:22:22.621 --> 00:22:24.990
  • We got to praise him because we're down.
  • 00:22:24.990 --> 00:22:27.025
  • We got to praise him because we're up.
  • 00:22:27.025 --> 00:22:28.960
  • We got to praise him because of what he's already done, what
  • 00:22:28.960 --> 00:22:32.330
  • He's doing right now, and what he's getting ready to do.
  • 00:22:32.330 --> 00:22:35.467
  • He is worthy to be praised.
