  • ...
  • 00:00:00.633 --> 00:00:01.181
  • Male announcer: this program is brought to you, in part,
  • 00:00:01.314 --> 00:00:03.416
  • By the partners and friends of creflo dollar ministries.

  • Coming up next on, "changing your world."
  • 00:00:07.887 --> 00:00:11.224
  • Creflo dollar: you have supernatural love, which you
  • 00:00:11.224 --> 00:00:13.493
  • Can--which means you can love what's not lovely, and you can
  • 00:00:13.493 --> 00:00:16.429
  • Love what's ugly, and you can love what's hard to love,
  • 00:00:16.429 --> 00:00:19.766
  • And you can love what's too difficult to love because he
  • 00:00:19.766 --> 00:00:22.335
  • Gave you his love, glory be to god.
  • 00:00:22.335 --> 00:00:25.605
  • He's not expecting you to pay this debt with your love.
  • 00:00:25.605 --> 00:00:28.975
  • He wants you to pay this debt with the love he gave you,
  • 00:00:28.975 --> 00:00:32.946
  • A love that won't run off and a love that will continue to move
  • 00:00:32.946 --> 00:00:37.584
  • You into net breaking, boat sinking harvest.

  • Creflo: if you have your bibles, go with me to the book of romans
  • 00:01:51.424 --> 00:01:55.795
  • Chapter 13, verses 7 through 8 in the new living translations.
  • 00:01:55.795 --> 00:02:03.503
  • We started a series where we talked about the debt that will
  • 00:02:03.503 --> 00:02:10.243
  • Pay off all debts.
  • 00:02:10.243 --> 00:02:12.979
  • And when we talked about that--i mean, just last night, got
  • 00:02:12.979 --> 00:02:16.683
  • A testimony taffi sent me of a young lady who had $150,000
  • 00:02:16.683 --> 00:02:22.555
  • In debt and it was canceled.
  • 00:02:22.555 --> 00:02:30.763
  • And this series is not even talking about money,
  • 00:02:30.763 --> 00:02:32.765
  • It's talking about love.
  • 00:02:32.765 --> 00:02:36.903
  • And so, there must be something to this thing that we're
  • 00:02:36.903 --> 00:02:39.272
  • Looking at.
  • 00:02:39.272 --> 00:02:41.874
  • So, i'm gonna talk about part two of this teaching, but
  • 00:02:41.874 --> 00:02:44.477
  • I wanna call it something a little differently while we'll
  • 00:02:44.477 --> 00:02:48.147
  • Continue with the debt that cancel all debt.
  • 00:02:48.147 --> 00:02:49.949
  • I wanna call this teaching this morning, "is your currency of
  • 00:02:49.949 --> 00:02:55.521
  • Love on empty?"
  • 00:02:55.521 --> 00:02:59.459
  • Are you on e?
  • 00:02:59.459 --> 00:03:03.396
  • Notice what it says, verse 7 and 8, "give to
  • 00:03:03.396 --> 00:03:07.467
  • Everyone what you owe them: pay your taxes," i say, i say,
  • 00:03:07.467 --> 00:03:14.607
  • I say, pay your taxes, "pay the government fees to those who
  • 00:03:14.607 --> 00:03:21.614
  • Collect them.
  • 00:03:21.614 --> 00:03:24.884
  • And also, you owe respect and honor to those who are
  • 00:03:24.884 --> 00:03:28.955
  • In authority."
  • 00:03:28.955 --> 00:03:30.290
  • So, regardless of who's the president of the united states
  • 00:03:30.290 --> 00:03:33.426
  • Of america, you owe respect and honor.
  • 00:03:33.426 --> 00:03:40.033
  • Verse 8 says, "owe nothing to anyone," wow, "except."
  • 00:03:40.033 --> 00:03:48.675
  • So, he says, "clear up all debts and obligations you have with
  • 00:03:48.675 --> 00:03:52.845
  • Any person except this one debt that will not be paid, will
  • 00:03:52.845 --> 00:03:58.184
  • Never be paid."
  • 00:03:58.184 --> 00:04:01.054
  • "except for your obligation to love one another.
  • 00:04:01.054 --> 00:04:06.626
  • If you love your neighbor, you will fulfill the requirements of
  • 00:04:06.626 --> 00:04:11.464
  • The law."
  • 00:04:11.464 --> 00:04:15.401
  • So, according to this, we should owe no man anything except love,
  • 00:04:15.401 --> 00:04:23.242
  • And you got to wonder why.
  • 00:04:23.242 --> 00:04:26.012
  • Because love shows the world who god is.
  • 00:04:26.012 --> 00:04:32.752
  • Love shows the world who god is.
  • 00:04:32.752 --> 00:04:35.955
  • Love is the supreme matter which the godly man and the godly
  • 00:04:35.955 --> 00:04:42.595
  • Woman must concentrate on.
  • 00:04:42.595 --> 00:04:45.732
  • Our concentration has to be on this issue of love.
  • 00:04:45.732 --> 00:04:51.571
  • If you discovered you had five more days to live, your focus
  • 00:04:51.571 --> 00:04:58.044
  • And concentration, of course, needs to be on this above
  • 00:04:58.044 --> 00:05:02.982
  • Everything else.
  • 00:05:02.982 --> 00:05:04.684
  • And there's a reason why.
  • 00:05:04.684 --> 00:05:06.285
  • Why is god wanting us to continue to focus on paying and
  • 00:05:06.285 --> 00:05:13.292
  • Being obligated to pay this debt of love, where every man is your
  • 00:05:13.292 --> 00:05:19.832
  • Creditor, where all of humankind is your creditor?
  • 00:05:19.832 --> 00:05:26.906
  • If you'll notice in romans 13 and 8, he says something at the
  • 00:05:26.906 --> 00:05:30.176
  • End we need to take care of as well.
  • 00:05:30.176 --> 00:05:32.545
  • Right now, i'm just tying loose ends from last week.
  • 00:05:32.545 --> 00:05:35.481
  • He says, "if you love your neighbor, you will fulfill the
  • 00:05:35.481 --> 00:05:38.818
  • Requirements of god's law."
  • 00:05:38.818 --> 00:05:40.853
  • Why are you--why would we be even interested in fulfilling
  • 00:05:40.853 --> 00:05:45.425
  • The requirements of god's law?
  • 00:05:45.425 --> 00:05:47.293
  • I mean, you--we're no longer under the law, but we're
  • 00:05:47.293 --> 00:05:49.929
  • Under grace.
  • 00:05:49.929 --> 00:05:51.264
  • But there is the law of love that's still in the
  • 00:05:51.264 --> 00:05:52.765
  • New testament.
  • 00:05:52.765 --> 00:05:54.100
  • What--why did you bring that up, that, "if you love your
  • 00:05:54.100 --> 00:05:56.269
  • Neighbor, you will fulfill the requirements of god's law"?
  • 00:05:56.269 --> 00:06:02.275
  • You see, in what way does love fulfill the law?
  • 00:06:02.275 --> 00:06:06.879
  • In other words, that's what we need to settle.
  • 00:06:06.879 --> 00:06:08.414
  • In what way does love fulfill the law?
  • 00:06:08.414 --> 00:06:12.452
  • You see, where love is, the things which the law forbids
  • 00:06:12.452 --> 00:06:20.993
  • Do not occur.
  • 00:06:20.993 --> 00:06:23.529
  • When love is in that place, the things that the law forbids
  • 00:06:23.529 --> 00:06:31.604
  • Do not occur.
  • 00:06:31.604 --> 00:06:33.773
  • It's almost like, that when you love your neighbor, you put the
  • 00:06:33.773 --> 00:06:38.478
  • Law out of work.
  • 00:06:38.478 --> 00:06:42.014
  • Mm.
  • 00:06:42.014 --> 00:06:43.749
  • There's no need for the law because when love is in place,
  • 00:06:43.749 --> 00:06:48.988
  • You put the law out of work because there is nothing for it
  • 00:06:48.988 --> 00:06:52.892
  • To condemn.
  • 00:06:52.892 --> 00:06:57.063
  • Yeah, i need to do that again.
  • 00:06:57.063 --> 00:06:59.098
  • That shocked your system, right?
  • 00:06:59.098 --> 00:07:01.300
  • When--see, the only people that are trying to keep 613 laws
  • 00:07:01.300 --> 00:07:05.404
  • Might be the people who don't have love in place, because when
  • 00:07:05.404 --> 00:07:10.209
  • Love is in place, the law is put out of work.
  • 00:07:10.209 --> 00:07:14.413
  • It is expelled because there's nothing to condemn from that
  • 00:07:14.413 --> 00:07:18.985
  • Point on because love is in place.
  • 00:07:18.985 --> 00:07:24.023
  • You see, you can pay off your house loan, but you can never
  • 00:07:24.023 --> 00:07:27.426
  • Come to the point of saying, "i have loved enough."
  • 00:07:27.426 --> 00:07:34.433
  • You will never come to the place where you can say,
  • 00:07:34.433 --> 00:07:38.871
  • "i have loved enough."
  • 00:07:38.871 --> 00:07:44.143
  • And when you come to realize this, this is where you spend
  • 00:07:44.143 --> 00:07:47.313
  • A lot of your prayers at.
  • 00:07:47.313 --> 00:07:48.648
  • It ain't, "show me how to get this, show me how to do this.
  • 00:07:48.648 --> 00:07:51.551
  • Show me how to get a promotion."
  • 00:07:51.551 --> 00:07:54.186
  • It's all about, "i need to get this love in place," because
  • 00:07:54.186 --> 00:07:57.757
  • You're gonna discover when this gets in place, a lot of stuff
  • 00:07:57.757 --> 00:08:02.361
  • Lines up.
  • 00:08:02.361 --> 00:08:07.233
  • Let me show you something in luke chapter 5, verse 1 through
  • 00:08:07.233 --> 00:08:10.836
  • 11 in the nlt.
  • 00:08:10.836 --> 00:08:12.204
  • Luke chapter 5, verse 1 through 11.
  • 00:08:12.204 --> 00:08:15.474
  • It's the most important message i've ever talked for in all my
  • 00:08:15.474 --> 00:08:17.743
  • Life except--because we getting ready to look up, our redemption
  • 00:08:17.743 --> 00:08:23.783
  • Draweth nigh and you're not gonna be able to go to heaven.
  • 00:08:23.783 --> 00:08:26.819
  • Talking about how many times you came to church and all of your
  • 00:08:26.819 --> 00:08:30.122
  • Works and all that other kind of stuff.
  • 00:08:30.122 --> 00:08:32.158
  • There's a reason why this is the preeminent thing that we must
  • 00:08:32.158 --> 00:08:40.666
  • Focus and care--and begin to care about.
  • 00:08:40.666 --> 00:08:44.837
  • Look at this illustration.
  • 00:08:44.837 --> 00:08:46.372
  • Verse 1, he says, "one day as jesus was preaching on the shore
  • 00:08:46.372 --> 00:08:49.709
  • Of the sea of galilee, great crowds pressed in on him to
  • 00:08:49.709 --> 00:08:54.080
  • Listen to the word of god.
  • 00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:57.249
  • He noticed two empty boats at the water's edge, for the
  • 00:08:57.249 --> 00:09:01.587
  • Fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.
  • 00:09:01.587 --> 00:09:06.859
  • Stepping into one of the boats, jesus asked simon, its owner,
  • 00:09:06.859 --> 00:09:11.731
  • To push it out into the water.
  • 00:09:11.731 --> 00:09:14.533
  • So he sat in the boat and he taught the crowds from there.
  • 00:09:14.533 --> 00:09:20.473
  • And when he had finished speaking, he said to simon,
  • 00:09:20.473 --> 00:09:24.210
  • 'now go out where it is deeper and let down your nets to catch
  • 00:09:24.210 --> 00:09:29.315
  • Some fish.'"
  • 00:09:29.315 --> 00:09:31.584
  • Notice the response.
  • 00:09:31.584 --> 00:09:33.686
  • "'master,' simon replied, 'we worked hard all last night and
  • 00:09:33.686 --> 00:09:38.224
  • Didn't catch a thing.
  • 00:09:38.224 --> 00:09:40.593
  • But if you say so, i'll let the nets down again.'
  • 00:09:40.593 --> 00:09:46.899
  • And this time their nets were so full of fish they began
  • 00:09:46.899 --> 00:09:50.703
  • To break, or tear."
  • 00:09:50.703 --> 00:09:53.005
  • Think of that.
  • 00:09:53.005 --> 00:09:54.540
  • How many of you would--how many of you would like to have a net
  • 00:09:54.540 --> 00:09:57.276
  • Breaking harvest?
  • 00:09:57.276 --> 00:10:01.080
  • Well, that's what i'm trying to tell you.
  • 00:10:01.080 --> 00:10:02.648
  • You pay this debt of love, you're gonna start moving from
  • 00:10:02.648 --> 00:10:05.718
  • Just enough to more than enough and you're gonna start having
  • 00:10:05.718 --> 00:10:08.688
  • A net--your net gonna start tearing.
  • 00:10:08.688 --> 00:10:11.657
  • Why is your net gonna tear?
  • 00:10:11.657 --> 00:10:13.025
  • Because the stuff coming out of that net, you're gonna be able
  • 00:10:13.025 --> 00:10:15.461
  • To share it with somebody else.
  • 00:10:15.461 --> 00:10:17.430
  • It's the same illustration, "my cup runneth over."
  • 00:10:17.430 --> 00:10:20.266
  • What do you do with what's running out the cup?
  • 00:10:20.266 --> 00:10:21.934
  • You share it with somebody else.
  • 00:10:21.934 --> 00:10:23.269
  • You keep this debt of love going.
  • 00:10:23.269 --> 00:10:28.741
  • "a shout for help brought their partners in the other boat, and
  • 00:10:28.741 --> 00:10:33.479
  • Soon both boats were filled with fish and on the verge
  • 00:10:33.479 --> 00:10:38.084
  • Of sinking."
  • 00:10:38.084 --> 00:10:39.418
  • Oh, my god.
  • 00:10:39.418 --> 00:10:41.087
  • A boat sinking harvest.
  • 00:10:41.087 --> 00:10:43.089
  • I declare that over you right now.
  • 00:10:43.089 --> 00:10:46.625
  • I declare that over you right now that when you get blessed,
  • 00:10:46.625 --> 00:10:50.696
  • Those who are connected with you gonna get blessed.
  • 00:10:50.696 --> 00:10:53.432
  • [speaking in tongues]
  • 00:10:53.432 --> 00:10:55.434
  • And we are going to begin to experience a boat
  • 00:10:55.434 --> 00:10:58.571
  • Sinking harvest.
  • 00:10:58.571 --> 00:10:59.905
  • I never--i declare that the members of this church, not just
  • 00:10:59.905 --> 00:11:03.809
  • One, not just two, because one not gonna be able to take it
  • 00:11:03.809 --> 00:11:07.012
  • All, two not gonna be able to take it all.
  • 00:11:07.012 --> 00:11:09.415
  • You gonna get yourself full and then spill out on somebody else,
  • 00:11:09.415 --> 00:11:12.451
  • And they gonna do a spill out on somebody else, and they're gonna
  • 00:11:12.451 --> 00:11:14.587
  • Spill on somebody else.
  • 00:11:14.587 --> 00:11:15.955
  • And before you know it, we are all showing up with a boat
  • 00:11:15.955 --> 00:11:19.091
  • Sinking, net breaking harvest.
  • 00:11:19.091 --> 00:11:28.067
  • So, "when simon peter realized what had happened," he sound
  • 00:11:28.067 --> 00:11:30.903
  • Like collipark, "what had happened was."
  • 00:11:30.903 --> 00:11:32.938
  • [congregation laughing]
  • 00:11:32.938 --> 00:11:34.473
  • "and he fell to his knees," now watch this, "he fell to his
  • 00:11:34.473 --> 00:11:39.345
  • Knees before jesus and said, 'oh, lord, leave me.'"
  • 00:11:39.345 --> 00:11:45.951
  • I ain't no good.
  • 00:11:45.951 --> 00:11:47.953
  • "'i'm such a sinful man.'
  • 00:11:47.953 --> 00:11:51.190
  • For he was awestruck," you understand what i'm saying?
  • 00:11:51.190 --> 00:11:54.760
  • He was blown away.
  • 00:11:54.760 --> 00:11:56.896
  • Some of y'all gonna--you gonna get blown--what god is getting
  • 00:11:56.896 --> 00:12:01.801
  • Ready to do in these last day, you're gonna be awestruck.
  • 00:12:01.801 --> 00:12:05.437
  • It's gonna be--"for he was awestruck by the number of fish
  • 00:12:05.437 --> 00:12:13.112
  • They caught, as were the others with him."
  • 00:12:13.112 --> 00:12:17.416
  • Watch this, now.
  • 00:12:17.416 --> 00:12:18.784
  • Watch this.
  • 00:12:18.784 --> 00:12:20.186
  • "his partners, james and john, the sons of zebedee, were
  • 00:12:20.186 --> 00:12:23.322
  • Also amazed.
  • 00:12:23.322 --> 00:12:24.690
  • Jesus replied to simon, 'don't be afraid!
  • 00:12:24.690 --> 00:12:27.693
  • From now on you'll be fishing for people!'"
  • 00:12:27.693 --> 00:12:37.570
  • Yeah.
  • 00:12:37.870 --> 00:12:39.438
  • I'll do it, lord.
  • 00:12:39.438 --> 00:12:40.773
  • He said--say that over you.
  • 00:12:40.773 --> 00:12:42.141
  • You're gonna be fishing for people.
  • 00:12:42.141 --> 00:12:46.345
  • Alright.
  • 00:12:46.345 --> 00:12:47.680
  • Now, watch this.
  • 00:12:47.680 --> 00:12:49.048
  • Now, this is what got me.
  • 00:12:49.048 --> 00:12:50.382
  • "and as soon as they landed," with all the stuff that god
  • 00:12:50.382 --> 00:12:55.921
  • Brought into their hands, "they left everything and
  • 00:12:55.921 --> 00:13:02.228
  • Followed jesus."
  • 00:13:02.228 --> 00:13:07.700
  • See, i know some of y'all ain't clapping now.
  • 00:13:07.700 --> 00:13:09.935
  • When i was talking about that boat sinking harvest--see, but
  • 00:13:09.935 --> 00:13:12.905
  • What you don't understand, the same jesus that did--that broke
  • 00:13:12.905 --> 00:13:16.041
  • The net the first place, the same jesus that sunk the boats
  • 00:13:16.041 --> 00:13:20.012
  • The first place, why would we stay there with the stuff when
  • 00:13:20.012 --> 00:13:24.149
  • We can leave and go with the source?
  • 00:13:24.149 --> 00:13:28.888
  • Why stay with the things when we can have connection with
  • 00:13:28.888 --> 00:13:32.625
  • The source?
  • 00:13:32.625 --> 00:13:38.130
  • I need to close my bible, just go and go home.
  • 00:13:38.130 --> 00:13:39.899
  • You can live off that for the rest of the week.
  • 00:13:39.899 --> 00:13:44.603
  • Like i said earlier, supernatural love.
  • 00:13:44.603 --> 00:13:48.073
  • Look at jesus loving.
  • 00:13:48.073 --> 00:13:50.142
  • This is all love.
  • 00:13:50.142 --> 00:13:51.477
  • Love has action.
  • 00:13:51.477 --> 00:13:52.845
  • Supernatural love always produces supernatural results.
  • 00:13:52.845 --> 00:13:57.983
  • Somebody says, "but pastor, i don't know if i have
  • 00:13:57.983 --> 00:14:00.085
  • Supernatural love."
  • 00:14:00.085 --> 00:14:01.453
  • You do.
  • 00:14:01.453 --> 00:14:02.788
  • Romans 5 and 5. we'll look at it a little later.
  • 00:14:02.788 --> 00:14:04.857
  • He says the holy spirit came in and he poured his love on the
  • 00:14:04.857 --> 00:14:10.262
  • Inside of you.
  • 00:14:10.262 --> 00:14:11.630
  • The day you got saved supernatural love has been
  • 00:14:11.630 --> 00:14:14.833
  • Poured on the inside of you.
  • 00:14:14.833 --> 00:14:16.568
  • Why did he give you supernatural love?
  • 00:14:16.568 --> 00:14:18.938
  • Because some things are gonna be difficult to love in human love.
  • 00:14:18.938 --> 00:14:23.475
  • Some things you can't love in human love.
  • 00:14:23.475 --> 00:14:26.378
  • Some things are too hard to love in human love.
  • 00:14:26.378 --> 00:14:29.615
  • But remember, you have something more than human love.
  • 00:14:29.615 --> 00:14:33.252
  • You have supernatural love, which you can--which means you
  • 00:14:33.252 --> 00:14:36.255
  • Can love what's not lovely, and you can love what's ugly, and
  • 00:14:36.255 --> 00:14:39.725
  • You can love what's hard to love, and you can love what's
  • 00:14:39.725 --> 00:14:42.428
  • Too difficult to love because he gave you his love, glory be
  • 00:14:42.428 --> 00:14:46.699
  • To god.
  • 00:14:46.699 --> 00:14:48.033
  • He's not expecting you to pay this debt with your love.
  • 00:14:48.033 --> 00:14:51.070
  • He wants you to pay this debt with the love he gave you,
  • 00:14:51.070 --> 00:14:54.940
  • A love that won't run off and a love that will continue to move
  • 00:14:54.940 --> 00:14:59.545
  • You into net breaking, boat sinking harvest.
  • 00:14:59.545 --> 00:15:09.588
  • Let me gather myself because i'm about ready to tear
  • 00:15:11.690 --> 00:15:16.962
  • Up something.
  • 00:15:16.962 --> 00:15:20.466
  • I had a miracle this past tuesday in my physical body that
  • 00:15:20.466 --> 00:15:26.205
  • Wasn't supposed to happen.
  • 00:15:26.205 --> 00:15:29.208
  • The doctor said, "well, you know, it is what it is," and i
  • 00:15:29.208 --> 00:15:34.413
  • Just thought about paying this debt of love and it--i can't
  • 00:15:34.413 --> 00:15:39.218
  • Tell you what it is, but taffi know what it is, and i know what
  • 00:15:39.218 --> 00:15:43.856
  • It is, and that's all who need to know what it is.
  • 00:15:43.856 --> 00:15:51.530
  • But god healed whatever he healed when that man said,
  • 00:15:51.530 --> 00:15:56.802
  • "that's messed up, that's broken, that won't work no more.
  • 00:15:56.802 --> 00:15:58.971
  • Forget this."
  • 00:15:58.971 --> 00:16:00.339
  • Ha!
  • 00:16:00.339 --> 00:16:01.740
  • But when you pay the debt of love, you will get a net
  • 00:16:01.740 --> 00:16:05.978
  • Breaking, boat sinking, iron swimming, oil not stopping,
  • 00:16:05.978 --> 00:16:15.087
  • Tax in the mouth of a fish.
  • 00:16:15.087 --> 00:16:23.062
  • So, i'm no longer 98% healed, i'm 102% healed.
  • 00:16:23.062 --> 00:16:32.604
  • So, excuse me while i shout hallelujah.
  • 00:16:32.604 --> 00:16:41.914
  • [congregation cheering]
  • 00:16:44.950 --> 00:16:54.993
  • We see the power of god in many different ways.
  • 00:16:57.229 --> 00:17:01.533
  • Now think with me just for a moment.
  • 00:17:01.533 --> 00:17:02.868
  • We see the power of god in a whole lot of different ways.
  • 00:17:02.868 --> 00:17:04.736
  • We see the power of god, you know, when he fed the
  • 00:17:04.736 --> 00:17:08.640
  • Multitudes; multiplied fish and bread.
  • 00:17:08.640 --> 00:17:13.345
  • We see the power of god in the word of god in healing the sick,
  • 00:17:13.345 --> 00:17:17.416
  • Raising the dead.
  • 00:17:17.416 --> 00:17:19.885
  • We see the power of god when he was walking on water and a host
  • 00:17:19.885 --> 00:17:22.788
  • Of other things that showed the miraculous power of god.
  • 00:17:22.788 --> 00:17:28.894
  • However, a power that moves a person from a state of sin and
  • 00:17:28.894 --> 00:17:38.203
  • Fear, and all the problems of the world, and he moves that
  • 00:17:38.203 --> 00:17:42.608
  • Person to a place of peace, and joy, and hope, now that's what
  • 00:17:42.608 --> 00:17:50.816
  • I would call the real power of god.
  • 00:17:50.816 --> 00:17:55.988
  • And the real power of god, ladies and gentlemen,
  • 00:17:55.988 --> 00:18:00.025
  • Is the power of love.
  • 00:18:00.025 --> 00:18:03.629
  • That's the real power of god.
  • 00:18:03.629 --> 00:18:06.098
  • I'm not look--i'm not--listen, and please don't
  • 00:18:06.098 --> 00:18:09.067
  • Misunderstand me.
  • 00:18:09.067 --> 00:18:11.036
  • I am no longer looking for the circus acts.
  • 00:18:11.036 --> 00:18:18.677
  • Me prophesying your address, your last name, and where your
  • 00:18:18.677 --> 00:18:25.484
  • Mom and them came from.
  • 00:18:25.484 --> 00:18:28.353
  • To me, that ain't the real power of god.
  • 00:18:28.353 --> 00:18:29.922
  • The real power of god is a transformative power that can
  • 00:18:29.922 --> 00:18:34.459
  • Transform you from fear, can transform you from sin,
  • 00:18:34.459 --> 00:18:39.231
  • Can transform you from the problems of the world.
  • 00:18:39.231 --> 00:18:42.100
  • And all of a sudden you're in peace, and you're in joy, and
  • 00:18:42.100 --> 00:18:46.572
  • You're in hope.
  • 00:18:46.572 --> 00:18:47.906
  • That's the real power of god.
  • 00:18:47.906 --> 00:18:50.075
  • There's got to be a reason why god continues and consistently
  • 00:18:50.075 --> 00:18:54.913
  • Talks about this love walk being above everything else.
  • 00:18:54.913 --> 00:19:02.387
  • The power of love is eternal.
  • 00:19:02.387 --> 00:19:06.491
  • Look at 1 corinthians chapter 13, verse 8.
  • 00:19:06.491 --> 00:19:09.228
  • The power of love is eternal--in the nlt, everything else
  • 00:19:09.228 --> 00:19:11.797
  • Will fade away.
  • 00:19:11.797 --> 00:19:15.133
  • Other anointings will fade away.
  • 00:19:15.133 --> 00:19:17.169
  • Prophecy will fade away.
  • 00:19:17.169 --> 00:19:20.038
  • Tongues will fade away.
  • 00:19:20.038 --> 00:19:22.975
  • He said in verse 8, "prophecy and speaking in unknown language
  • 00:19:22.975 --> 00:19:26.812
  • And special knowledge, it'll become useless.
  • 00:19:26.812 --> 00:19:28.947
  • But love will last forever!"
  • 00:19:28.947 --> 00:19:32.351
  • It is eternal.
  • 00:19:32.351 --> 00:19:33.685
  • The power of love is eternal.
  • 00:19:33.685 --> 00:19:36.054
  • It never passes away.
  • 00:19:36.054 --> 00:19:37.623
  • The power of love supersedes every other form of power.
  • 00:19:37.623 --> 00:19:44.563
  • Every other form of power is superseded by the power of love.
  • 00:19:44.563 --> 00:19:50.569
  • You see why it means little that when you have the power to heal,
  • 00:19:50.569 --> 00:19:54.973
  • But you ain't got the power to love, how little that means
  • 00:19:54.973 --> 00:19:58.343
  • To god.
  • 00:19:58.343 --> 00:20:00.712
  • The power to blow your breath and everybody on the right side
  • 00:20:00.712 --> 00:20:07.419
  • Fall out, but you ain't got the power to walk in love.
  • 00:20:07.419 --> 00:20:11.857
  • You see how little that means to god?
  • 00:20:11.857 --> 00:20:16.128
  • And so, we've taken all those others anointings and we've
  • 00:20:16.128 --> 00:20:18.597
  • Turned them into shows, and circuses, and fables, and people
  • 00:20:18.597 --> 00:20:21.867
  • Show up for shows, and circuses, and fables, but they might not
  • 00:20:21.867 --> 00:20:25.404
  • Show up if you're talking about love.
  • 00:20:25.404 --> 00:20:27.105
  • But if i tell you, "show up," and i'm gonna lay hands on 1,000
  • 00:20:27.105 --> 00:20:30.309
  • People with cancer and all of them--no, no, no.
  • 00:20:30.309 --> 00:20:32.344
  • I appreciate all those other anointings, but this anointing
  • 00:20:32.344 --> 00:20:36.014
  • Is eternal.
  • 00:20:36.014 --> 00:20:40.585
  • In fact, this anointing is the battery to all those other ones.
  • 00:20:40.585 --> 00:20:48.894
  • Y'all ain't listening to me this morning.
  • 00:20:48.894 --> 00:20:52.164
  • It supersedes every form of power and only love has the
  • 00:20:52.164 --> 00:20:56.101
  • Ability to overcome human faults.
  • 00:20:56.101 --> 00:21:01.340
  • Love has the ability to overcome human faults.
  • 00:21:01.340 --> 00:21:04.209
  • You deal with any other power, you'll tell people, "well, see,
  • 00:21:04.209 --> 00:21:06.411
  • The reason why, when you lay hands on somebody don't nothing
  • 00:21:06.411 --> 00:21:10.082
  • Happen, is because of their faults."
  • 00:21:10.082 --> 00:21:13.952
  • But love overcomes the fault.
  • 00:21:13.952 --> 00:21:16.355
  • The power of love can overcome the weaknesses.
  • 00:21:16.355 --> 00:21:19.224
  • The power of love can overcome the failures.
  • 00:21:19.224 --> 00:21:23.595
  • The power of love can get you healed when you don't
  • 00:21:23.595 --> 00:21:27.032
  • Deserve it.
  • 00:21:27.032 --> 00:21:29.668
  • The power of love will anoint you to be able to heal somebody
  • 00:21:29.668 --> 00:21:33.505
  • And you don't deserve it.
  • 00:21:33.505 --> 00:21:35.941
  • Look what he says in colossians chapter 3, verse 12 and 13
  • 00:21:35.941 --> 00:21:39.644
  • In the nlt.
  • 00:21:39.644 --> 00:21:41.012
  • Colossians 3:12 and 13 in the nlt.
  • 00:21:41.012 --> 00:21:45.016
  • He says, "since god chose you to be the holy people he loves, you
  • 00:21:45.016 --> 00:21:49.921
  • Must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness,
  • 00:21:49.921 --> 00:21:53.258
  • Humility, gentleness, and patience," all that's love.
  • 00:21:53.258 --> 00:21:56.895
  • He says, "now, when you clothe yourself with this,
  • 00:21:56.895 --> 00:21:59.464
  • Make allowances for each other's faults."
  • 00:21:59.464 --> 00:22:02.601
  • Church folks don't do that too much.
  • 00:22:02.601 --> 00:22:05.237
  • "make allowances for each other's faults."
  • 00:22:05.237 --> 00:22:07.839
  • You know what church folks do?
  • 00:22:07.839 --> 00:22:09.174
  • They looking out for a fault so they can somehow, in self
  • 00:22:09.174 --> 00:22:13.078
  • Righteousness, exalt themselves above you because
  • 00:22:13.078 --> 00:22:16.014
  • You got a fault.
  • 00:22:16.014 --> 00:22:17.349
  • They had a fault last week, but they ain't told you about
  • 00:22:17.349 --> 00:22:19.017
  • Their fault.
  • 00:22:19.017 --> 00:22:20.385
  • He said, "make allowances for each other's faults, and forgive
  • 00:22:20.385 --> 00:22:23.522
  • Anyone who offends you.
  • 00:22:23.522 --> 00:22:25.524
  • And remember, the lord forgave you, so you must
  • 00:22:25.524 --> 00:22:28.160
  • Forgive others."
  • 00:22:28.160 --> 00:22:30.896
  • I'm talking about paying the debt of love.
  • 00:22:30.896 --> 00:22:34.332
  • Love is the power to be transformed, power
  • 00:22:34.332 --> 00:22:40.372
  • To be transformed.
  • 00:22:40.372 --> 00:22:42.641
  • So, we gotta be patient with folks because they're--you're in
  • 00:22:42.641 --> 00:22:45.544
  • The process of being transformed.
  • 00:22:45.544 --> 00:22:47.879
  • I don't need to beat you up right now because you're in the
  • 00:22:47.879 --> 00:22:50.015
  • Process of being transformed.
  • 00:22:50.015 --> 00:22:51.883
  • That's just like, if i see you with half your makeup on and
  • 00:22:51.883 --> 00:22:58.824
  • Rollers in your hair; you ain't finished yet.
  • 00:22:58.824 --> 00:23:01.626
  • Don't be talking about how somebody, "oh, baby,
  • 00:23:01.626 --> 00:23:03.462
  • You don't look good."
  • 00:23:03.462 --> 00:23:04.796
  • She ain't finished yet.
  • 00:23:04.796 --> 00:23:09.801
  • You saw somebody at church and they had a human moment and they
  • 00:23:09.801 --> 00:23:13.271
  • End up cussing you like--ah.
  • 00:23:13.271 --> 00:23:15.240
  • Wait, wait, wait, wait.
  • 00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:16.575
  • God ain't finished with them yet, now.
  • 00:23:16.575 --> 00:23:17.943
  • You got to understand how they used to cuss.
  • 00:23:17.943 --> 00:23:20.645
  • That little three letter word was nothing compared to what
  • 00:23:20.645 --> 00:23:22.914
  • They used to.
  • 00:23:22.914 --> 00:23:24.249
  • God had to transform them out of them five letter words and them
  • 00:23:24.249 --> 00:23:29.154
  • Compound cussing words, and got them down to them
  • 00:23:29.154 --> 00:23:32.624
  • Three letter words.
  • 00:23:32.624 --> 00:23:33.992
  • So, you don't know how far god has brought them while you're
  • 00:23:33.992 --> 00:23:37.262
  • Trying to point a finger at them and judge them.
  • 00:23:37.262 --> 00:23:39.865
  • You gotta make allowances for everybody's faults.
  • 00:23:39.865 --> 00:23:43.535
  • Male announcer: jesus canceled the debt owed for our sins.
  • 00:23:46.271 --> 00:23:49.407

  • Now, i remember when taffi and i started giving.
  • 00:25:51.029 --> 00:25:53.565
  • It was a painful thing to give
  • 00:25:53.565 --> 00:25:56.201
  • Because we didn't have much at all financially.
  • 00:25:56.201 --> 00:25:58.837
  • However, we made a decision to be givers.
  • 00:25:58.837 --> 00:26:01.873
  • And one of the most-quoted scriptures
  • 00:26:01.873 --> 00:26:04.342
  • In the bible is john 3:16.
  • 00:26:04.342 --> 00:26:06.878
  • "god so loved the world that he gave."
  • 00:26:06.878 --> 00:26:09.180
  • Therefore, as christians we give.
  • 00:26:09.180 --> 00:26:11.583
  • Our giving is an expression of our love,
  • 00:26:11.583 --> 00:26:14.719
