  • 00:00:00.633 --> 00:00:00.346
  • Male announcer: this program is brought to you in part by the
  • 00:00:01.281 --> 00:00:03.416
  • Partners and friends of creflo dollar ministries.
  • 00:00:03.550 --> 00:00:06.352
  • Coming up next on "changing your world."
  • 00:00:07.987 --> 00:00:10.223
  • Taffi dollar: when the spirit of god and the mind of christ comes
  • 00:00:11.825 --> 00:00:16.930
  • On the inside of you, you have the thoughts of god, you have
  • 00:00:16.930 --> 00:00:20.567
  • The feelings of god, you have the will of god.
  • 00:00:20.567 --> 00:00:23.903
  • You have all of this when you become born again.
  • 00:00:23.903 --> 00:00:27.907
  • So when you are born again, the holy spirit came with the mind
  • 00:00:27.907 --> 00:00:32.745
  • Of christ.
  • 00:00:32.745 --> 00:00:34.080
  • And in your spirit, there's a mind that already knows
  • 00:00:34.080 --> 00:00:37.484
  • All things.
  • 00:00:37.484 --> 00:00:39.385
  • Already knows all things.
  • 00:00:39.385 --> 00:00:41.054
  • And when that happens, you experience what's called
  • 00:00:41.054 --> 00:00:43.790
  • Revelation knowledge.
  • 00:00:43.790 --> 00:00:46.192
  • Revelation or revealed knowledge.
  • 00:00:46.192 --> 00:00:49.963

  • Taffi: we wanna continue on this grace for change, and this will
  • 00:02:00.233 --> 00:02:03.469
  • Be our last installment tonight.
  • 00:02:03.469 --> 00:02:05.104
  • We wanna talk about how the holy spirit helps us to change and
  • 00:02:05.104 --> 00:02:09.642
  • Experience personal and practical changes in our
  • 00:02:09.642 --> 00:02:13.413
  • Everyday life.
  • 00:02:13.413 --> 00:02:15.515
  • And that's the benefit of having him on the inside, because up to
  • 00:02:15.515 --> 00:02:21.354
  • This point in the old covenant they had what the spirit was
  • 00:02:21.354 --> 00:02:25.024
  • Upon them.
  • 00:02:25.024 --> 00:02:26.392
  • But now in christ, the spirit is in us and we have him within.
  • 00:02:26.392 --> 00:02:30.630
  • And as a result of us being in him, then we can experience
  • 00:02:30.630 --> 00:02:33.566
  • Change from the inside out.
  • 00:02:33.566 --> 00:02:35.435
  • It's not change that comes from the outside in, but change from
  • 00:02:35.435 --> 00:02:39.038
  • The inside out.
  • 00:02:39.038 --> 00:02:41.074
  • So romans chapter 12 verse 1 says, "i beseech you therefore,
  • 00:02:41.074 --> 00:02:45.111
  • Brethren, by the mercies of god, that you present your bodies a
  • 00:02:45.111 --> 00:02:48.281
  • Living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto god, which is
  • 00:02:48.281 --> 00:02:55.388
  • Your reasonable service."
  • 00:02:55.388 --> 00:02:58.458
  • We talked about how once we understand how god sees the body
  • 00:02:58.458 --> 00:03:03.263
  • Versus how we saw it before we came into the things of god,
  • 00:03:03.263 --> 00:03:07.934
  • We have to change our minds.
  • 00:03:07.934 --> 00:03:09.535
  • We have to change our mindset in terms of what the temple of the
  • 00:03:09.535 --> 00:03:13.273
  • Lord is and how we should treat the temple and how god wants to
  • 00:03:13.273 --> 00:03:16.809
  • Use this body as a living sacrifice is how god sees it.
  • 00:03:16.809 --> 00:03:22.515
  • So we have to renew our minds and not just use it for how we
  • 00:03:22.515 --> 00:03:27.053
  • Want it to benefit us, but to see how god wants it to benefit
  • 00:03:27.053 --> 00:03:30.957
  • Him and how he wants us to begin to see it.
  • 00:03:30.957 --> 00:03:36.462
  • And then we can change and renew our minds and operate in the
  • 00:03:36.462 --> 00:03:40.633
  • Line with his words.
  • 00:03:40.633 --> 00:03:41.968
  • So he says, "i appeal to you therefore, brethren, and beg of
  • 00:03:41.968 --> 00:03:44.604
  • You in view of [all] the mercies of
  • 00:03:44.604 --> 00:03:45.972
  • God to make a decisive dedication."
  • 00:03:45.972 --> 00:03:50.043
  • So it makes a quality decision.
  • 00:03:50.043 --> 00:03:53.212
  • A decision of quality.
  • 00:03:53.212 --> 00:03:55.248
  • Life is a series of decisions, and when we make dedications,
  • 00:03:55.248 --> 00:04:00.053
  • We're making decisions, and our decisions should be that
  • 00:04:00.053 --> 00:04:03.556
  • Of quality.
  • 00:04:03.556 --> 00:04:05.525
  • And so the abundant life is a life that is both qualitative
  • 00:04:05.525 --> 00:04:09.929
  • And it is a life that is quantitative.
  • 00:04:09.929 --> 00:04:13.499
  • The bible talks about how he would give us the abundant life,
  • 00:04:13.499 --> 00:04:17.403
  • Life to the full that would overflow, and that life would be
  • 00:04:17.403 --> 00:04:22.008
  • Super abundant in quantity and it also would abound in quality.
  • 00:04:22.008 --> 00:04:29.649
  • So it's talking about the fruit of the spirit in the realm of
  • 00:04:29.649 --> 00:04:32.752
  • The spirit.
  • 00:04:32.752 --> 00:04:34.120
  • And then it's talking about the quantitative life, which is the
  • 00:04:34.120 --> 00:04:36.222
  • Natural life where there are physical needs and material
  • 00:04:36.222 --> 00:04:40.693
  • Provisions and things of that nature.
  • 00:04:40.693 --> 00:04:42.829
  • So god has already made provisions for everything that
  • 00:04:42.829 --> 00:04:45.832
  • We need through the abundant life that we have in christ.
  • 00:04:45.832 --> 00:04:50.503
  • He says the thief is the one who comes to steal, to kill, and
  • 00:04:50.503 --> 00:04:55.007
  • To destroy.
  • 00:04:55.007 --> 00:04:56.342
  • But he says, "i have come to give you life," and that life
  • 00:04:56.342 --> 00:04:59.746
  • Is abundant.
  • 00:04:59.746 --> 00:05:01.247
  • It is qualitative and it is quantitative.
  • 00:05:01.247 --> 00:05:05.084
  • And so the thief is talking about klepto where we get the
  • 00:05:05.084 --> 00:05:09.822
  • Word kleptomaniac.
  • 00:05:09.822 --> 00:05:11.858
  • He's the thief.
  • 00:05:11.858 --> 00:05:13.659
  • He's the one who wants to rob from us the quality of life and
  • 00:05:13.659 --> 00:05:18.598
  • The decisive life that jesus came to give us.
  • 00:05:18.598 --> 00:05:22.168
  • That is us dedicating ourselves as a living sacrifice every day
  • 00:05:22.168 --> 00:05:29.175
  • Of our life, being mindful of what god wants to do and willing
  • 00:05:29.175 --> 00:05:33.780
  • To change our mindset that we're no longer living for ourselves,
  • 00:05:33.780 --> 00:05:37.817
  • But as jesus lived and sacrificed to do the will of
  • 00:05:37.817 --> 00:05:41.154
  • God, so it is in this body, as jesus lived in his body, it was
  • 00:05:41.154 --> 00:05:45.892
  • To sacrifice to do what god wanted him to do.
  • 00:05:45.892 --> 00:05:49.829
  • And so we're conscious of this temple and we're conscious of
  • 00:05:49.829 --> 00:05:54.534
  • The holy spirit that we have on the inside of us and we're
  • 00:05:54.534 --> 00:05:57.703
  • Mindful of how he wants us to exist in this natural realm.
  • 00:05:57.703 --> 00:06:02.608
  • Now, what i wanna look at tonight is the holy spirit and
  • 00:06:02.608 --> 00:06:05.745
  • How the holy spirit helps us change.
  • 00:06:05.745 --> 00:06:08.514
  • I don't know about you.
  • 00:06:08.514 --> 00:06:09.849
  • I wanna look at some things that are not just focused on
  • 00:06:09.849 --> 00:06:14.420
  • Pressuring our flesh to try to do things through willpower.
  • 00:06:14.420 --> 00:06:20.626
  • Not putting so much emphasis on our natural ability to be able
  • 00:06:20.626 --> 00:06:27.033
  • To do things, but tapping into the supernatural ability.
  • 00:06:27.033 --> 00:06:32.939
  • And that's what i'm believing god will take place in your
  • 00:06:32.939 --> 00:06:36.309
  • Life, that supernatural change will begin to kick in in
  • 00:06:36.309 --> 00:06:40.346
  • Your life.
  • 00:06:40.346 --> 00:06:41.714
  • And so we wanna look at this.
  • 00:06:41.714 --> 00:06:44.317
  • Let's look in john chapter 14.
  • 00:06:44.317 --> 00:06:46.352
  • Let's just start there and then we're gonna look at a couple of
  • 00:06:46.352 --> 00:06:50.289
  • Scriptures on the mind of christ and how we can draw out things
  • 00:06:50.289 --> 00:06:58.264
  • From the inside through the holy ghost.
  • 00:06:58.264 --> 00:07:02.969
  • John chapter 14, verse 26.
  • 00:07:02.969 --> 00:07:09.041
  • Verse 25 says, "these things have i spoken unto you, being
  • 00:07:09.041 --> 00:07:12.712
  • Yet present with you."
  • 00:07:12.712 --> 00:07:15.548
  • These things i've spoken, being yet present with you.
  • 00:07:15.548 --> 00:07:18.518
  • So jesus was with them at the time and he was preparing them
  • 00:07:18.518 --> 00:07:22.421
  • For a time in which we he would not be present with them.
  • 00:07:22.421 --> 00:07:26.125
  • So it says in verse 26, "but the comforter, which is the holy
  • 00:07:26.125 --> 00:07:31.864
  • Ghost, whom the father will send in my name, he shall teach you
  • 00:07:31.864 --> 00:07:36.035
  • All things."
  • 00:07:36.035 --> 00:07:37.937
  • Think of that.
  • 00:07:37.937 --> 00:07:39.472
  • You have a teacher of all things.
  • 00:07:39.472 --> 00:07:45.011
  • You have a built in tutor, you have a built in instructor, you
  • 00:07:45.011 --> 00:07:50.483
  • Have a built in professor who wants to teach you everything.
  • 00:07:50.483 --> 00:07:58.424
  • He's continuously wanting you to be taught.
  • 00:07:58.424 --> 00:08:02.962
  • And you have to, as i mentioned weeks ago, continuously put
  • 00:08:02.962 --> 00:08:07.533
  • Yourself in a position where you allow yourself to be one who
  • 00:08:07.533 --> 00:08:11.837
  • Is teachable.
  • 00:08:11.837 --> 00:08:13.606
  • You're pupil of the word of god, a pupil of the comforter.
  • 00:08:13.606 --> 00:08:18.077
  • He says, "but the comforter whom the holy ghost, whom the father
  • 00:08:18.077 --> 00:08:22.682
  • Will send in my name, he shall teach you all things."
  • 00:08:22.682 --> 00:08:29.021
  • So there are things that the holy spirit wants to teach us
  • 00:08:29.021 --> 00:08:32.725
  • And bring all things to your remembrance.
  • 00:08:32.725 --> 00:08:37.363
  • I was at home today and preparing for tonight and all of
  • 00:08:37.363 --> 00:08:41.434
  • A sudden, i was thinking about things pertaining to work and
  • 00:08:41.434 --> 00:08:45.605
  • Other situations that were going on.
  • 00:08:45.605 --> 00:08:47.974
  • And all of a sudden, the holy spirit just dropped a situation
  • 00:08:47.974 --> 00:08:51.110
  • On the inside of me that i was wondering about certain things,
  • 00:08:51.110 --> 00:08:55.948
  • You know, as far as work and teams and why certain
  • 00:08:55.948 --> 00:09:00.453
  • Individuals doing a certain type of thing.
  • 00:09:00.453 --> 00:09:02.455
  • And then the holy spirit said, "you remember x, y, and z?"
  • 00:09:02.455 --> 00:09:06.292
  • And then all of a sudden the light bulb just came open and
  • 00:09:06.292 --> 00:09:10.930
  • Revealed to me why this particular situation was
  • 00:09:10.930 --> 00:09:14.333
  • Going on.
  • 00:09:14.333 --> 00:09:15.701
  • And he said, "you remember when this was submitted several weeks
  • 00:09:15.701 --> 00:09:20.006
  • Ago," and so forth and so on.
  • 00:09:20.006 --> 00:09:21.807
  • And so i thank the lord for that, because i wasn't even
  • 00:09:21.807 --> 00:09:26.979
  • Thinking about that at the time.
  • 00:09:26.979 --> 00:09:28.848
  • I wasn't thinking about any particular situation or i was
  • 00:09:28.848 --> 00:09:32.084
  • Thinking about the situation, but i was thinking about the
  • 00:09:32.084 --> 00:09:34.520
  • Individual that was a part of it.
  • 00:09:34.520 --> 00:09:36.422
  • But even in the midst of that, it was the lord, and he shows
  • 00:09:36.422 --> 00:09:41.193
  • You things.
  • 00:09:41.193 --> 00:09:42.561
  • He will bring things to your remembrance.
  • 00:09:42.561 --> 00:09:44.630
  • There may be things that you've forgotten about that maybe has
  • 00:09:44.630 --> 00:09:47.967
  • Happened weeks ago or months ago or even years ago.
  • 00:09:47.967 --> 00:09:51.637
  • And you can find a person doing a certain thing and you're
  • 00:09:51.637 --> 00:09:54.974
  • Trying to figure out why is this happening, what's going on?
  • 00:09:54.974 --> 00:10:00.246
  • And then all of a sudden he'll just reveal it to you.
  • 00:10:00.246 --> 00:10:04.650
  • Even as a parent, you may have children who are doing certain
  • 00:10:04.650 --> 00:10:07.720
  • Things and then the holy spirit will say, "they're doing that
  • 00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:11.123
  • Because of this."
  • 00:10:11.123 --> 00:10:13.359
  • And as a result, as a parent, you can begin to pray over that
  • 00:10:13.359 --> 00:10:16.729
  • Situation and ask the holy spirit, "how should i
  • 00:10:16.729 --> 00:10:19.165
  • Address it?"
  • 00:10:19.165 --> 00:10:20.499
  • Maybe with your spouse and you're trying to figure out,
  • 00:10:20.499 --> 00:10:22.401
  • Okay, why is this going on or at work or why is this particular
  • 00:10:22.401 --> 00:10:26.238
  • Person treat me this kind of way or what's going on here?
  • 00:10:26.238 --> 00:10:28.841
  • What's going on there?
  • 00:10:28.841 --> 00:10:30.342
  • And then the holy spirit, he says, "he'll bring things to
  • 00:10:30.342 --> 00:10:34.213
  • Your remembrance and he will teach you all things."
  • 00:10:34.213 --> 00:10:39.552
  • He says, "whatsoever i have said unto you."
  • 00:10:39.552 --> 00:10:46.425
  • And so say this with me, "holy spirit, bring all things to
  • 00:10:46.425 --> 00:10:51.797
  • My remembrance.
  • 00:10:51.797 --> 00:10:54.366
  • I am teachable, and i desire to be taught by you, taught all
  • 00:10:54.366 --> 00:11:01.140
  • Things pertaining to life and godliness."
  • 00:11:01.140 --> 00:11:06.412
  • Now in the amplified, it says, "but the comforter" and the
  • 00:11:06.412 --> 00:11:10.516
  • Comforter is described as the counselor, this is all that you
  • 00:11:10.516 --> 00:11:14.386
  • Have on the inside of you.
  • 00:11:14.386 --> 00:11:17.022
  • The helper, so he counsels, he advises, he enlightens,
  • 00:11:17.022 --> 00:11:26.766
  • He listens.
  • 00:11:26.766 --> 00:11:28.100
  • The comforter, the counselor, helper, the intercessor, your
  • 00:11:28.100 --> 00:11:36.275
  • Advocate, you have one who stands and fights your case and
  • 00:11:36.275 --> 00:11:41.547
  • Pleads your case.
  • 00:11:41.547 --> 00:11:43.282
  • This is what the holy spirit does.
  • 00:11:43.282 --> 00:11:45.718
  • He stands in the gap and he pleads on your behalf and puts
  • 00:11:45.718 --> 00:11:51.290
  • The things that are in the will and in the plan of god and
  • 00:11:51.290 --> 00:11:55.094
  • Establishes the test state of jesus's word in our life.
  • 00:11:55.094 --> 00:11:59.932
  • So he says, the counselor, he counsels us, he advises us.
  • 00:11:59.932 --> 00:12:05.070
  • He helps us maybe when situations are strenuous in our
  • 00:12:05.070 --> 00:12:09.642
  • Life and we have to go through change or things that we're
  • 00:12:09.642 --> 00:12:13.078
  • Dealing with, he will enable us to go through things, making us
  • 00:12:13.078 --> 00:12:17.383
  • Strong when maybe we're feeling weak, he helps us in
  • 00:12:17.383 --> 00:12:20.352
  • Those areas.
  • 00:12:20.352 --> 00:12:21.720
  • He pleads on our behalf is what the intercessor does.
  • 00:12:21.720 --> 00:12:25.157
  • Stands in the gap.
  • 00:12:25.157 --> 00:12:27.560
  • He's a strengthener and he's a stand by.
  • 00:12:27.560 --> 00:12:31.831
  • And so even when you feel as if you're handling situations,
  • 00:12:31.831 --> 00:12:36.735
  • Probably not in the best way, thank god for the holy spirit
  • 00:12:36.735 --> 00:12:40.206
  • That he'll be your strengthener.
  • 00:12:40.206 --> 00:12:43.309
  • That he will strengthen you to stand strong.
  • 00:12:43.309 --> 00:12:46.212
  • To be able to stand flat footed and just dare to deal with
  • 00:12:46.212 --> 00:12:50.382
  • Situations in our life.
  • 00:12:50.382 --> 00:12:52.251
  • I made up in my mind a long time ago, there were things that were
  • 00:12:52.251 --> 00:12:55.888
  • Seemingly bigger and mountains and all kinds of things, but you
  • 00:12:55.888 --> 00:12:59.391
  • Know what?
  • 00:12:59.391 --> 00:13:00.726
  • Don't give up, don't cave in, and don't quit.
  • 00:13:00.726 --> 00:13:02.595
  • Even if you have to do it afraid, i'm telling you
  • 00:13:02.595 --> 00:13:05.264
  • Move forward.
  • 00:13:05.264 --> 00:13:06.832
  • If your knees are buckling and you're, you know, you feel like
  • 00:13:06.832 --> 00:13:10.236
  • You're about to pass out, god is with you, amen.
  • 00:13:10.236 --> 00:13:15.174
  • Because when we are weak, that is when he has his mighty
  • 00:13:15.174 --> 00:13:19.245
  • Strength to be able to show up on our behalf.
  • 00:13:19.245 --> 00:13:24.183
  • And so he stands with us, he stands on the inside of us.
  • 00:13:24.183 --> 00:13:28.287
  • We don't have to stand alone in the transitions and in the
  • 00:13:28.287 --> 00:13:32.458
  • Changes that are taking place in life, because change is going to
  • 00:13:32.458 --> 00:13:38.931
  • Happen regardless.
  • 00:13:38.931 --> 00:13:40.399
  • And so whatever situations or whatever transition there is,
  • 00:13:40.399 --> 00:13:44.470
  • Because we have a helper, a strengthener, we have a stand
  • 00:13:44.470 --> 00:13:49.074
  • By, a counselor, all the things that the holy spirit provides
  • 00:13:49.074 --> 00:13:54.280
  • For us that we can go through it.
  • 00:13:54.280 --> 00:13:56.081
  • He says, "whom the father will send in my name [in my place]."
  • 00:13:56.081 --> 00:14:01.353
  • So jesus was preparing the disciples because he knew that
  • 00:14:01.353 --> 00:14:04.590
  • He would have to leave.
  • 00:14:04.590 --> 00:14:05.925
  • He wouldn't be with them.
  • 00:14:05.925 --> 00:14:07.293
  • He wouldn't be able to comfort them like he was before in
  • 00:14:07.293 --> 00:14:09.828
  • Their life.
  • 00:14:09.828 --> 00:14:11.196
  • At this point, they had to rely on the holy spirit.
  • 00:14:11.196 --> 00:14:13.499
  • There was no physical tangible person in the natural who would
  • 00:14:13.499 --> 00:14:19.204
  • Be with them.
  • 00:14:19.204 --> 00:14:20.839
  • But he says, i'm gonna send the holy ghost back and he will
  • 00:14:20.839 --> 00:14:24.543
  • Stand in my place.
  • 00:14:24.543 --> 00:14:26.345
  • Glory be to god.
  • 00:14:26.345 --> 00:14:29.782
  • "to represent me and act on my behalf."
  • 00:14:29.782 --> 00:14:37.222
  • And he says, "he will teach you all things.
  • 00:14:37.222 --> 00:14:41.393
  • And he will cause you to recall (will remind you of)."
  • 00:14:41.393 --> 00:14:48.067
  • Glory be to god.
  • 00:14:48.067 --> 00:14:49.635
  • "he will bring to your remembrance everything that i
  • 00:14:49.635 --> 00:14:56.642
  • Have told you."
  • 00:14:56.642 --> 00:14:59.611
  • And so thank god for the holy spirit.
  • 00:14:59.611 --> 00:15:02.548
  • And then he says here, how his peace that he will leave
  • 00:15:02.548 --> 00:15:06.285
  • With us.
  • 00:15:06.285 --> 00:15:07.653
  • And so when we receive jesus into our life, we receive the
  • 00:15:07.653 --> 00:15:12.024
  • Baptism of the holy spirit and the gift of the holy spirit has
  • 00:15:12.024 --> 00:15:18.697
  • The mind of christ that comes on the inside of us.
  • 00:15:18.697 --> 00:15:21.967
  • And so when we receive jesus as our lord, the born again spirit
  • 00:15:21.967 --> 00:15:26.205
  • Comes with the mind of christ.
  • 00:15:26.205 --> 00:15:28.340
  • You're born again spirit.
  • 00:15:28.340 --> 00:15:29.875
  • When you become born again, when as we read the holy spirit comes
  • 00:15:29.875 --> 00:15:36.015
  • On the inside of you, you have the mind of christ.
  • 00:15:36.015 --> 00:15:41.754
  • We're not talking about, you know, some foolishness or, you
  • 00:15:41.754 --> 00:15:46.658
  • Know, crazy thinking, but we're talking about christ's mind on
  • 00:15:46.658 --> 00:15:50.396
  • The inside.
  • 00:15:50.396 --> 00:15:51.764
  • Look at what it says here in colossians chapter 2, verse 16,
  • 00:15:51.764 --> 00:15:56.402
  • Glory be to god.
  • 00:15:56.402 --> 00:15:59.938
  • So it just gets better and better.
  • 00:15:59.938 --> 00:16:01.974
  • Your mind just getting sounder and sounder.
  • 00:16:01.974 --> 00:16:04.410
  • You're not getting crazy and losing your mind and losing
  • 00:16:04.410 --> 00:16:07.646
  • Yourself because of the holy spirit that abides on the inside
  • 00:16:07.646 --> 00:16:14.019
  • Of you, amen.
  • 00:16:14.019 --> 00:16:18.090
  • A sound mind.
  • 00:16:18.090 --> 00:16:19.458
  • He says here in--i'm sorry, 1 corinthians, not colossians.
  • 00:16:19.458 --> 00:16:23.762
  • 1 corinthians chapter 2 verse 16, okay.
  • 00:16:23.762 --> 00:16:33.439
  • It says, "for who hath known the mind of the lord, that he may
  • 00:16:33.439 --> 00:16:42.614
  • Instruct him?
  • 00:16:42.614 --> 00:16:44.616
  • But we have the mind of christ."
  • 00:16:44.616 --> 00:16:48.153
  • Say, "i have the mind of christ."
  • 00:16:48.153 --> 00:16:52.858
  • So that means in the amplified, we have the mind of christ, we
  • 00:16:52.858 --> 00:16:56.195
  • Hold the thoughts, feelings, and purposes of his heart.
  • 00:16:56.195 --> 00:17:01.700
  • Now, in the natural realm, when you have, you know, your soul is
  • 00:17:01.700 --> 00:17:05.704
  • Comprised of your mind, your thoughts, your feelings, your
  • 00:17:05.704 --> 00:17:09.441
  • Will, and so in the natural realm, that's what the natural
  • 00:17:09.441 --> 00:17:14.146
  • Mind and the natural soul does.
  • 00:17:14.146 --> 00:17:16.448
  • But when the spirit of god and the mind of christ comes on the
  • 00:17:16.448 --> 00:17:22.020
  • Inside of you, you have the thoughts of god, you have the
  • 00:17:22.020 --> 00:17:25.491
  • Feelings of god, you have the will of god.
  • 00:17:25.491 --> 00:17:28.760
  • You have all of this when you become born again.
  • 00:17:28.760 --> 00:17:32.764
  • So when you are born again, the holy spirit came with the mind
  • 00:17:32.764 --> 00:17:37.536
  • Of christ.
  • 00:17:37.536 --> 00:17:38.904
  • And in your spirit, there's a mind that already knows
  • 00:17:38.904 --> 00:17:42.341
  • All things.
  • 00:17:42.341 --> 00:17:44.176
  • Already knows all things.
  • 00:17:44.176 --> 00:17:45.844
  • And when that happens, you experience what's called
  • 00:17:45.844 --> 00:17:48.580
  • Revelation knowledge.
  • 00:17:48.580 --> 00:17:51.083
  • Revelation or revealed knowledge.
  • 00:17:51.083 --> 00:17:55.020
  • And so it is in the natural, our physical mind or our soul has to
  • 00:17:55.020 --> 00:18:01.293
  • Be trained, educated, informed, enlightened, but unlike the holy
  • 00:18:01.293 --> 00:18:07.332
  • Spirit or our spiritual mind or the mind of christ already comes
  • 00:18:07.332 --> 00:18:12.304
  • Full of knowledge.
  • 00:18:12.304 --> 00:18:14.273
  • Didn't have to be trained, didn't have to be educated, it
  • 00:18:14.273 --> 00:18:18.577
  • Doesn't have to be informed, but it has to be received on
  • 00:18:18.577 --> 00:18:23.649
  • The inside.
  • 00:18:23.649 --> 00:18:24.983
  • And as we receive the holy spirit, then we can begin to
  • 00:18:24.983 --> 00:18:28.053
  • Function from now our innermost being from the mind of christ
  • 00:18:28.053 --> 00:18:33.525
  • Versus how we were before according to the natural mind
  • 00:18:33.525 --> 00:18:38.964
  • And the mind's way of doing things, the natural mind of
  • 00:18:38.964 --> 00:18:43.168
  • Doing things.
  • 00:18:43.168 --> 00:18:44.536
  • And 1 corinthians chapter 13, look at what it says here in
  • 00:18:44.536 --> 00:18:49.408
  • Verse 9 and verse 10.
  • 00:18:49.408 --> 00:18:52.945
  • Because in the natural "for we know in part," we are one third
  • 00:18:52.945 --> 00:19:00.285
  • Perfect when we receive christ and receive the mind of christ
  • 00:19:00.285 --> 00:19:04.556
  • On the inside of us, but the other parts of us have to be
  • 00:19:04.556 --> 00:19:08.694
  • Renewed and revealed.
  • 00:19:08.694 --> 00:19:10.596
  • "for we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
  • 00:19:10.596 --> 00:19:16.935
  • The amplified says, "for our knowledge is fragmentary
  • 00:19:16.935 --> 00:19:19.838
  • (incomplete and imperfect), and our prophecy (our teaching)
  • 00:19:19.838 --> 00:19:26.245
  • Is fragmentary (incomplete and imperfect).
  • 00:19:26.245 --> 00:19:30.782
  • But when that, which is perfect is come," when you receive jesus
  • 00:19:30.782 --> 00:19:37.422
  • Into your life, that which is perfect has come on the inside
  • 00:19:37.422 --> 00:19:41.860
  • Of you.
  • 00:19:41.860 --> 00:19:43.195
  • And so a third of you is perfect.
  • 00:19:43.195 --> 00:19:45.664
  • A third of you is full holy spirit and then that which is in
  • 00:19:45.664 --> 00:19:50.502
  • Part shall be done away.
  • 00:19:50.502 --> 00:19:53.839
  • So the natural mind is mentioned here that has to be renewed as
  • 00:19:53.839 --> 00:19:59.077
  • In the process of being renewed.
  • 00:19:59.077 --> 00:20:01.980
  • And what is perfect will line up with that which is all in one.
  • 00:20:01.980 --> 00:20:09.154
  • And so we understand here that when we don't renew our minds
  • 00:20:09.154 --> 00:20:15.694
  • And our minds that isn't renewed and we try to be led by it and
  • 00:20:15.694 --> 00:20:22.134
  • It contradicts what the holy spirit wants to do on the inside
  • 00:20:22.134 --> 00:20:28.240
  • Of us, that's what's called the double mindedness.
  • 00:20:28.240 --> 00:20:31.476
  • Two minds.
  • 00:20:31.476 --> 00:20:33.879
  • And i don't know about you, but i've experienced that in many
  • 00:20:33.879 --> 00:20:36.648
  • Instances, it was as if my mind would think certain things in
  • 00:20:36.648 --> 00:20:41.853
  • The natural based on the past, based on the fears and
  • 00:20:41.853 --> 00:20:45.557
  • Circumstances and situations or the world's way of thinking and
  • 00:20:45.557 --> 00:20:49.461
  • Apprehension and anxiety, but yet i knew the holy spirit
  • 00:20:49.461 --> 00:20:54.833
  • Wanted to be free from all of that and just says,
  • 00:20:54.833 --> 00:20:58.103
  • "move forward."
  • 00:20:58.103 --> 00:20:59.638
  • And so we have to understand that as we continue to renew our
  • 00:20:59.638 --> 00:21:03.975
  • Minds that the holy spirit will begin to be that which outweighs
  • 00:21:03.975 --> 00:21:10.716
  • And overrules the unrenewed mind.
  • 00:21:10.716 --> 00:21:15.053
  • And then we'll become one and then as a result, as spirit,
  • 00:21:15.053 --> 00:21:19.791
  • Soul, and body that we can begin to do the will of god and see
  • 00:21:19.791 --> 00:21:23.695
  • Things manifested in areas of our life that god wants to do.
  • 00:21:23.695 --> 00:21:28.567
  • Supernaturally, we can experience process and progress
  • 00:21:28.567 --> 00:21:34.406
  • In our life.
  • 00:21:34.406 --> 00:21:36.208
  • So the key to the christian life is training your physical mind
  • 00:21:36.208 --> 00:21:39.444
  • To agree with your spirit mind, which is the mind of christ.
  • 00:21:39.444 --> 00:21:43.582
  • The key is training your physical mind, training it,
  • 00:21:43.582 --> 00:21:48.887
  • Disciplining it where it doesn't waiver, it doesn't hesitate, but
  • 00:21:48.887 --> 00:21:53.825
  • It's conditioned.
  • 00:21:53.825 --> 00:21:56.194
  • I have programmed my mind.
  • 00:21:56.194 --> 00:22:01.600
  • I have programmed my body to think right, to believe right.
  • 00:22:01.600 --> 00:22:07.873
  • And as a result, i live right.
  • 00:22:07.873 --> 00:22:11.276
  • Your spirit mind always thinks the way god thinks.
  • 00:22:11.276 --> 00:22:16.281
  • Your spirit mind will think always the way that god thinks.
  • 00:22:16.281 --> 00:22:20.986
  • The word perfectly represents what you think in your spirit.
  • 00:22:20.986 --> 00:22:25.690
  • But if your physical mind agrees, then you'll see
  • 00:22:25.690 --> 00:22:30.529
  • Supernatural power and ability through your soul into your
  • 00:22:30.529 --> 00:22:35.700
  • Body, which produces results in the physical realm.
  • 00:22:35.700 --> 00:22:39.271
  • And so that's what revelation is.
  • 00:22:39.271 --> 00:22:41.773
  • Is when your physical mind agrees with your spirit and then
  • 00:22:41.773 --> 00:22:46.878
  • As a result, things are revealed to you.
  • 00:22:46.878 --> 00:22:50.182
  • Man, it just begins to explode.
  • 00:22:50.182 --> 00:22:52.451
  • There's an empowerment, there's an enablement, and then as a
  • 00:22:52.451 --> 00:22:56.455
  • Result, it produces result even in the physical realm.
  • 00:22:56.455 --> 00:23:01.460
  • But if your physical mind disagrees, then you're double
  • 00:23:01.460 --> 00:23:04.663
  • Minded and you'll receive nothing from the lord.
  • 00:23:04.663 --> 00:23:08.400
  • And so the physical mind is the biggest enemy to revelation.
  • 00:23:08.400 --> 00:23:13.104
  • The double mindedness is that which robs and prevents the
  • 00:23:13.104 --> 00:23:17.409
  • Revelation knowledge.
  • 00:23:17.409 --> 00:23:18.743
  • But single mindedness brings stability, double mindedness
  • 00:23:18.743 --> 00:23:23.415
  • Causes instability.
  • 00:23:23.415 --> 00:23:26.518
  • Single mindedness brings stability, double
  • 00:23:26.518 --> 00:23:29.921
  • Mindedness instability.
  • 00:23:29.921 --> 00:23:32.924
  • The mind of christ is in your spirit, but your soul doesn't
  • 00:23:32.924 --> 00:23:37.395
  • Automatically think that way.
  • 00:23:37.395 --> 00:23:39.498
  • So it takes an effort to renew your physical mind to agree with
  • 00:23:39.498 --> 00:23:43.568
  • Your spirit.
