  • to your faith.
  • 00:01:58.998 --> 00:02:01.501
  • Joy will cause your faithto become explosive.
  • 00:02:01.534 --> 00:02:06.539
  • Dynamite is explosive.
  • 00:02:06.573 --> 00:02:09.776
  • When it is ignited, it willrearrange and change things.
  • 00:02:09.809 --> 00:02:14.514
  • Joy is the fuse to your faith.
  • 00:02:14.547 --> 00:02:18.885
  • When it is ignited, your faith,like dynamite, will rearrange
  • 00:02:18.918 --> 00:02:22.822
  • and change things.
  • 00:02:22.855 --> 00:02:25.058
  • The joy of the Lord islike lightin' that fuse.
  • 00:02:25.091 --> 00:02:28.628
  • I don't know what some of y'allbeen standin' in faith in, but I
  • 00:02:28.661 --> 00:02:31.030
  • believe, if you'll release yourjoy, then your faith will
  • 00:02:31.064 --> 00:02:34.968
  • become explosive.
  • 00:02:35.001 --> 00:02:37.036
  • Praise God.
  • 00:02:37.070 --> 00:02:39.172
  • Ah, a'ight, a'ight,come on, let's go.
  • 00:02:39.205 --> 00:02:46.145
  • Look at John 5--I'mexcited--John 15 and 11.
  • 00:02:46.179 --> 00:02:52.185
  • Joy--don't forgetwhat I just said.
  • 00:02:52.218 --> 00:02:54.254
  • So what are you excited about?
  • 00:02:54.287 --> 00:02:56.589

  • Lightin' your dynamite.
  • 00:03:05.198 --> 00:03:07.567
  • Lightin' your dynamite.
  • 00:03:07.600 --> 00:03:09.569
  • Oh, my God.
  • 00:03:09.602 --> 00:03:11.337
  • Somebody said, "What youpreachin' on this morning?"
  • 00:03:11.371 --> 00:03:12.939
  • We figured out how tolight our dynamite.
  • 00:03:12.972 --> 00:03:15.041
  • Hallelujah, you'vebeen standin' in faith.
  • 00:03:15.074 --> 00:03:16.709
  • Some of you been standin' infaith for a little while, but
  • 00:03:16.743 --> 00:03:18.911
  • today you gon' go andlight your dynamite.
  • 00:03:18.945 --> 00:03:21.614
  • You gon' go and "Flick the Bic."
  • 00:03:21.648 --> 00:03:24.450
  • That's probablytoo old isn't it?
  • 00:03:24.484 --> 00:03:26.252
  • Turn to your neighbor andsay, "It's time to ignite
  • 00:03:31.758 --> 00:03:33.493
  • your faith."
  • 00:03:33.526 --> 00:03:35.795
  • Turn to the other side andsay, "Joy is how you do it."
  • 00:03:35.828 --> 00:03:38.498
  • Ah, sookie, sookie, now.
  • 00:03:41.334 --> 00:03:44.203
  • Ah, sookie, sookie--I know someof y'all, "Oh, wait till I get
  • 00:03:44.237 --> 00:03:48.107
  • up out of this church."
  • 00:03:48.141 --> 00:03:51.010
  • [speaking in tongues]
  • 00:03:51.044 --> 00:03:55.048
  • I might catch some of y'alldancin' on the way to car.
  • 00:03:55.081 --> 00:03:57.850
  • Someone say, "Whatcha doin'?"
  • 00:03:57.884 --> 00:03:59.319
  • "I need my faithto be explosive.
  • 00:03:59.352 --> 00:04:01.087
  • Excuse me while Ishout a little bit."
  • 00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:03.389
  • All right, verse 11, "Thesethings have I spoken unto you,
  • 00:04:03.423 --> 00:04:08.861
  • that my joy mightremain in you--"
  • 00:04:08.895 --> 00:04:14.400
  • so how many of you knowyour joy needs to remain?
  • 00:04:14.434 --> 00:04:17.637
  • I said your joy needs toremain-- "that my joy might
  • 00:04:17.670 --> 00:04:20.273
  • remain in you, and thatyour joy might be full."
  • 00:04:20.306 --> 00:04:24.377
  • How many of you know it'sprobably not a good idea to walk
  • 00:04:24.410 --> 00:04:26.045
  • around with a halfa tank of joy?
  • 00:04:26.079 --> 00:04:29.248
  • Turn to your neighbor and say,"You need a full tank of joy."
  • 00:04:29.282 --> 00:04:33.152
  • See, y'all came here thismornin' to get a joy fill-up.
  • 00:04:33.186 --> 00:04:39.158
  • Fill her up.
  • 00:04:39.192 --> 00:04:41.094
  • You gon' go in there talkin'about, "Give me about 50-cent
  • 00:04:41.127 --> 00:04:42.662
  • worth of gas."
  • 00:04:42.695 --> 00:04:44.397
  • We used to do that.
  • 00:04:44.430 --> 00:04:46.332
  • I remember the day I was sobroke, I came in there, "Let me
  • 00:04:46.366 --> 00:04:48.334
  • have a quarter."
  • 00:04:48.368 --> 00:04:50.436
  • They said, "Quarter of a tank?"
  • 00:04:50.470 --> 00:04:52.605
  • "No, a quarter worth of gas."
  • 00:04:52.638 --> 00:04:55.942
  • Y'all laughin'.
  • 00:04:55.975 --> 00:04:57.343
  • I'm serious.
  • 00:04:57.377 --> 00:04:58.678
  • I remember me and Mom andPop were goin' into the--in
  • 00:04:58.711 --> 00:05:00.580
  • Thomasville, puttin' that thingin there, goin' there, "Give me
  • 00:05:00.613 --> 00:05:02.348
  • 75-cent worth of gas."
  • 00:05:02.382 --> 00:05:04.016
  • Some of y'all like, "Huh?"
  • 00:05:07.653 --> 00:05:09.756
  • Well, you know, that might havegotten me down the street, but,
  • 00:05:09.789 --> 00:05:11.758
  • you know, it was,like, 75-cent and hope.
  • 00:05:11.791 --> 00:05:18.064
  • Hope--what?Hope it didn't stop.
  • 00:05:18.097 --> 00:05:22.402
  • "These things I'vespoken unto you."
  • 00:05:22.435 --> 00:05:24.203
  • So Jesus said, "Isaid what I said."
  • 00:05:24.237 --> 00:05:27.039
  • So what Jesus spoke was words.
  • 00:05:27.073 --> 00:05:30.410
  • So the words of Jesus causesyour joy to remain, and the
  • 00:05:30.443 --> 00:05:36.115
  • words of Jesus wouldcause your joy to be full.
  • 00:05:36.149 --> 00:05:40.920
  • And if you're not going to aplace where you're hearing the
  • 00:05:40.953 --> 00:05:43.890
  • Word of Jesus, then you can'tget no joy, and if you don't get
  • 00:05:43.923 --> 00:05:48.361
  • no joy, then there's some otherthings that are gonna come as a
  • 00:05:48.394 --> 00:05:51.564
  • result of that.
  • 00:05:51.597 --> 00:05:53.366
  • So notice here, joycomes from the Word.
  • 00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:55.134
  • Say that, "Joy comesfrom the Word."
  • 00:05:55.168 --> 00:05:58.237
  • Say it again, "Joycomes from the Word.
  • 00:05:58.271 --> 00:06:01.507
  • No Word, no joy.
  • 00:06:01.541 --> 00:06:04.644
  • No joy--"
  • 00:06:04.677 --> 00:06:07.947
  • Come on, "No joy--"
  • 00:06:07.980 --> 00:06:09.949
  • Why do we have no joy?
  • 00:06:09.982 --> 00:06:12.084
  • "No Word."
  • 00:06:12.118 --> 00:06:14.454
  • So when you see people who don'thave joy, you have seen somebody
  • 00:06:14.487 --> 00:06:20.960
  • that ain't got no--and I'mtalkin' about them--them of the
  • 00:06:20.993 --> 00:06:24.330
  • church, but they ain't got nojoy because no joy means--what?
  • 00:06:24.363 --> 00:06:29.802
  • But when you get some Word,you ought to have some--what?
  • 00:06:29.836 --> 00:06:33.840
  • congregation: Joy.
  • 00:06:33.873 --> 00:06:37.343
  • Creflo: All right, watch this.
  • 00:06:39.979 --> 00:06:41.681
  • Nehemiah 8, verses 8 through 10.
  • 00:06:41.714 --> 00:06:44.550
  • Nehemiah 8, verses 8 through 10.
  • 00:06:44.584 --> 00:06:47.153
  • [speaking in tongues]
  • 00:06:47.186 --> 00:06:49.589
  • Hallelujah.
  • 00:06:49.622 --> 00:06:51.724
  • Oh, somebody say,"What's goin' on?"
  • 00:06:51.757 --> 00:06:53.426
  • Your joy tank is fillin' up.
  • 00:06:53.459 --> 00:06:55.161
  • Every time I turn to theScripture, that's more joy goin'
  • 00:06:55.194 --> 00:06:56.996
  • in, more understandin' you get.
  • 00:06:57.029 --> 00:06:58.831
  • It's important to getthe understandin'.
  • 00:06:58.865 --> 00:07:00.600
  • You can sit here, and I can reada Scripture, but if you don't
  • 00:07:00.633 --> 00:07:02.201
  • understand it, it's likethe gas spillin' out.
  • 00:07:02.235 --> 00:07:05.304
  • You ain't--nothin' goin' in.
  • 00:07:05.338 --> 00:07:07.707
  • Look at this: "So they readin the book in the law of God
  • 00:07:07.740 --> 00:07:10.910
  • distinctly, and theygave the sense--"
  • 00:07:10.943 --> 00:07:13.746
  • Thank God for somebodygivin' the sense.
  • 00:07:13.779 --> 00:07:15.615
  • You remember the first time yousat in church, and you heard a
  • 00:07:15.648 --> 00:07:18.017
  • Scripture, and youfinally understood it?
  • 00:07:18.050 --> 00:07:20.653
  • You remember somethin' wentoff on the inside of you?
  • 00:07:20.686 --> 00:07:22.755
  • It was like, "Oh, I gotit, I got it, I got it."
  • 00:07:22.788 --> 00:07:26.225
  • Okay, he said, "They gave thesense, and they caused them to
  • 00:07:26.259 --> 00:07:29.262
  • understand the reading."
  • 00:07:29.295 --> 00:07:34.667
  • What's Proverbs say?
  • 00:07:34.700 --> 00:07:36.302
  • "In all thy getting, get," what?
  • 00:07:36.335 --> 00:07:38.070
  • "They caused them tounderstand the reading."
  • 00:07:38.104 --> 00:07:40.806
  • Remember the things--have aflashback and remember the
  • 00:07:40.840 --> 00:07:42.675
  • things that you gotthe understanding of.
  • 00:07:42.708 --> 00:07:45.878
  • Your whole life changed.
  • 00:07:45.912 --> 00:07:47.446
  • It was like you got bornagain, again, on the inside.
  • 00:07:47.480 --> 00:07:49.282
  • I got it, I got it,I got it, I got it.
  • 00:07:49.315 --> 00:07:51.150
  • Remember the first time you gotthe message of grace, and it
  • 00:07:51.183 --> 00:07:54.387
  • exploded on the inside of you?
  • 00:07:54.420 --> 00:07:56.055
  • It's somethin' happened onthe inside when you got
  • 00:07:56.088 --> 00:07:58.457
  • an understandin'.
  • 00:07:58.491 --> 00:08:00.159
  • He said in verse 9, "AndNehemiah, which is the
  • 00:08:00.192 --> 00:08:02.395
  • Tirshatha, and Ezra the priestthe scribe, and the Levites that
  • 00:08:02.428 --> 00:08:05.898
  • taught the people, said unto allthe people, 'This day is holy
  • 00:08:05.932 --> 00:08:09.402
  • unto the Lord your God.
  • 00:08:09.435 --> 00:08:11.170
  • Mourn not, nor weep.'
  • 00:08:11.203 --> 00:08:13.372
  • For all the people wept,when they heard the words
  • 00:08:13.406 --> 00:08:16.409
  • of the Lord."
  • 00:08:16.442 --> 00:08:18.044
  • All right.
  • 00:08:18.077 --> 00:08:19.512
  • "Then he said unto them, 'Goyour way, eat the fat, drink the
  • 00:08:19.545 --> 00:08:23.182
  • sweet, send portions unto themfor whom nothin' is prepared,
  • 00:08:23.215 --> 00:08:26.652
  • for this day isholy unto our Lord.
  • 00:08:26.686 --> 00:08:29.322
  • Neither be ye sorry,for the joy
  • 00:08:29.355 --> 00:08:34.560
  • of the Lord is your strength."
  • 00:08:34.594 --> 00:08:39.498
  • "The joy of the Lordis your strength."
  • 00:08:39.532 --> 00:08:44.570
  • Say out loud, "The joy ofthe Lord is my strength."
  • 00:08:44.604 --> 00:08:51.410
  • Say it again, "Thejoy of the Lord--"
  • 00:08:51.444 --> 00:08:55.114
  • Anybody ever feel weak before?
  • 00:08:55.147 --> 00:09:00.720
  • Say, "The joy of theLord is my strength."
  • 00:09:00.753 --> 00:09:04.323
  • All right, but nowlisten to this.
  • 00:09:04.357 --> 00:09:06.392
  • No Word, no joy.
  • 00:09:06.425 --> 00:09:10.796
  • No joy, no strength.
  • 00:09:10.830 --> 00:09:15.301
  • No strength, then you're weak.
  • 00:09:15.334 --> 00:09:19.305
  • When you're weak, you can'tfight, and if you don't fight,

  • you're defeated, and when you'redefeated in this area, your
  • 00:09:24.510 --> 00:09:28.814
  • emotions will master your life.
  • 00:09:28.848 --> 00:09:31.851
  • Look at it again,no Word, no joy.
  • 00:09:31.884 --> 00:09:35.588
  • No joy, no strength.
  • 00:09:35.621 --> 00:09:38.157
  • No strength, you're weak.
  • 00:09:38.190 --> 00:09:40.660
  • When you're weak, can't fight.
  • 00:09:40.693 --> 00:09:43.195
  • Can't fight, then your emotionswill begin to lead and guide
  • 00:09:43.229 --> 00:09:45.564
  • your life.
  • 00:09:45.598 --> 00:09:47.700
  • "The joy of the Lord isyour strength," amen?
  • 00:09:47.733 --> 00:09:52.438
  • Now let's look at somethinghere: James 1, verses 2
  • 00:09:52.471 --> 00:09:55.641
  • through 4.
  • 00:09:55.675 --> 00:09:57.643
  • James 1, verses 2 through 4.
  • 00:09:57.677 --> 00:09:59.712
  • This is a weapon.
  • 00:09:59.745 --> 00:10:01.180
  • This is a weapon thatGod has put aside for us.
  • 00:10:01.213 --> 00:10:07.586
  • It's a weapon.
  • 00:10:07.620 --> 00:10:09.155
  • It's the weapon of joy thatSatan--there's no defense
  • 00:10:09.188 --> 00:10:12.191
  • against it.
  • 00:10:12.224 --> 00:10:13.726
  • There's no defense againsta joyful Christian, none.
  • 00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:17.163
  • You just have the authoritywhich means you're responsible
  • 00:10:17.196 --> 00:10:20.232
  • for turning it onor keeping it off, none.
  • 00:10:20.266 --> 00:10:23.969
  • Look at this, verse 2: "Mybrethren, count it all," faith.
  • 00:10:24.003 --> 00:10:29.275
  • "Count it all," revelation.
  • 00:10:31.944 --> 00:10:36.015
  • "Count it all," tongues.
  • 00:10:36.048 --> 00:10:38.918
  • Out of all the things hecould've said "count," he said,
  • 00:10:38.951 --> 00:10:41.487
  • "Count it all," what?
  • 00:10:41.520 --> 00:10:44.190
  • All right, when doyou count it joy?
  • 00:10:44.223 --> 00:10:47.660
  • When you fall intotemptations, tests, or trial.
  • 00:10:47.693 --> 00:10:52.865
  • When do you count it joy?
  • 00:10:52.898 --> 00:10:54.967
  • You count it joy when you fallinto temptations, testings,
  • 00:10:55.000 --> 00:10:58.070
  • or trials.
  • 00:10:58.104 --> 00:10:59.972
  • And you already know you're gon'have trouble, so he says, "When
  • 00:11:00.005 --> 00:11:02.208
  • you get in trouble,count it joy."
  • 00:11:02.241 --> 00:11:07.046
  • Joy needs to be on the scenewhen trouble comes on the scene.
  • 00:11:07.079 --> 00:11:11.450
  • Employ joy when trouble comes.
  • 00:11:11.484 --> 00:11:14.620
  • Oh, my goodness.
  • 00:11:14.653 --> 00:11:16.222
  • Verse 3, "Knowing this,"now, this is so awesome.
  • 00:11:16.255 --> 00:11:20.559
  • He says, "Count it all joy."
  • 00:11:20.593 --> 00:11:22.795
  • How do I count it joy?
  • 00:11:22.828 --> 00:11:24.463
  • He says you gottaknow somethin'.
  • 00:11:24.497 --> 00:11:26.899
  • Say this out loud with me.
  • 00:11:26.932 --> 00:11:29.101
  • "Joy comes from what you know."
  • 00:11:29.135 --> 00:11:32.304
  • Okay, so now let's--we need tomake a distinction between joy
  • 00:11:32.338 --> 00:11:34.840
  • and happiness.
  • 00:11:34.874 --> 00:11:37.510
  • Happiness is basedon how you feel.
  • 00:11:37.543 --> 00:11:40.713
  • Happiness is basedon your condition.
  • 00:11:40.746 --> 00:11:44.283
  • You can go to bed happy andwake up not so happy because
  • 00:11:44.316 --> 00:11:47.453
  • happiness is based on--you know,"It's nice I'm out on the beach.
  • 00:11:47.486 --> 00:11:51.824
  • I'm drinkin' some Kool-Aid."
  • 00:11:51.857 --> 00:11:53.993
  • You know, you're withyour wife or husband.
  • 00:11:54.026 --> 00:11:57.163
  • That's happy.
  • 00:11:57.196 --> 00:11:59.632
  • Somebody say, "You were doin'all right till you got to
  • 00:11:59.665 --> 00:12:00.966
  • husband and the wife.
  • 00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:03.335
  • I've been--theKool-Aid was better.
  • 00:12:03.369 --> 00:12:05.738
  • Now, happiness is based oncomfort, but the problem here is
  • 00:12:05.771 --> 00:12:12.278
  • that, when comfort changes, sodoes the condition of happiness.
  • 00:12:12.311 --> 00:12:18.617
  • So what's the difference?
  • 00:12:18.651 --> 00:12:20.286
  • Happiness is based on comfort.
  • 00:12:20.319 --> 00:12:22.688
  • Joy is based on what you know.
  • 00:12:22.721 --> 00:12:26.025
  • So you don't have to feelanything to have joy.
  • 00:12:26.058 --> 00:12:30.830
  • You have to feel somethin'to have happiness.
  • 00:12:30.863 --> 00:12:34.233
  • To have joy, you gotto know somethin'.
  • 00:12:34.266 --> 00:12:37.603
  • And if you know somethin',even though you're not feeling
  • 00:12:37.636 --> 00:12:40.639
  • comfortable about it, you canstill have joy, but here's the
  • 00:12:40.673 --> 00:12:44.143
  • deal: If you have joy longenough, watch what happens.
  • 00:12:44.176 --> 00:12:49.215
  • It'll change how you feel, andyou can have some happiness with
  • 00:12:49.248 --> 00:12:54.019
  • that joy.
  • 00:12:54.053 --> 00:12:56.222
  • But joy comes fromwhat you know.
  • 00:12:56.255 --> 00:12:58.057
  • He says, "Count it all joywhen you fall into different
  • 00:12:58.090 --> 00:12:59.825
  • temptations, trials, andtests, knowing this--"
  • 00:12:59.859 --> 00:13:02.695
  • Knowing what?
  • 00:13:02.728 --> 00:13:04.196
  • What do I need to know to havejoy in the midst of trials
  • 00:13:04.230 --> 00:13:05.898
  • and tests?
  • 00:13:05.931 --> 00:13:07.666
  • He said, "that the trying ofyour faith worketh patience."
  • 00:13:07.700 --> 00:13:12.338
  • Now, this word, "worketh,"doesn't mean "produce."
  • 00:13:12.371 --> 00:13:15.808
  • He didn't say the trying ofyour faith produces patience.
  • 00:13:15.841 --> 00:13:19.111
  • That's what most people think.
  • 00:13:19.144 --> 00:13:20.613
  • This word, "worketh," it'sattached to the word "employs,"
  • 00:13:20.646 --> 00:13:23.883
  • or "hires."
  • 00:13:23.916 --> 00:13:26.518
  • He says that, when your faithis being tried, employ patience.
  • 00:13:26.552 --> 00:13:32.892
  • What does "patience" mean?
  • 00:13:32.925 --> 00:13:34.493
  • "Patience" is consistentlyconstantly the same.
  • 00:13:34.526 --> 00:13:38.264
  • So, really, when somebody'ssittin' in traffic and they say,
  • 00:13:38.297 --> 00:13:40.432
  • "Well, I'm just patientlysittin' in traffic," it doesn't
  • 00:13:40.466 --> 00:13:42.701
  • mean "to put up with."
  • 00:13:42.735 --> 00:13:44.703
  • That's how the worldhas defined it.
  • 00:13:44.737 --> 00:13:46.338
  • It means "to remain the same."
  • 00:13:46.372 --> 00:13:47.973
  • If I started off believin' thatI'm healed, when the pain comes,
  • 00:13:48.007 --> 00:13:51.543
  • I'm still gon'believe I'm healed.
  • 00:13:51.577 --> 00:13:53.379
  • When the bad report comes,I still believe I'm healed.
  • 00:13:53.412 --> 00:13:55.681
  • If I'll remain patient aboutwhat I believe and not change,
  • 00:13:55.714 --> 00:13:59.285
  • then patience will have itsperfect work, and I'll be
  • 00:13:59.318 --> 00:14:02.554
  • perfect, entire,wanting nothing.
  • 00:14:02.588 --> 00:14:05.925
  • So, now, again,look what he says.
  • 00:14:05.958 --> 00:14:07.960
  • He says, "When thetrouble comes, higher joy.
  • 00:14:07.993 --> 00:14:11.597
  • Why do I want a higher joy?
  • 00:14:11.630 --> 00:14:13.165
  • Because I'm gonnaignite my faith.
  • 00:14:13.198 --> 00:14:15.000
  • Higher joy by what you know.
  • 00:14:15.034 --> 00:14:17.569
  • So you could be joyful justbecause you know how it's gon'
  • 00:14:17.603 --> 00:14:20.339
  • turn out.
  • 00:14:20.372 --> 00:14:21.974
  • You're gonna be joyfulbecause you know somethin'.
  • 00:14:22.007 --> 00:14:23.876
  • You're gonna be joyful becauseyou know that, even though my
  • 00:14:23.909 --> 00:14:26.078
  • faith is being tried, here'swhat he said: Even though my
  • 00:14:26.111 --> 00:14:29.915
  • faith is being tried, I'm gonnabe joyful because I know, if I
  • 00:14:29.949 --> 00:14:33.419
  • just stay the same about myfaith, I'm gonna come out
  • 00:14:33.452 --> 00:14:36.555
  • perfect, entire,wanting nothing.
  • 00:14:36.588 --> 00:14:39.291
  • Look how it works, folks.
  • 00:14:39.325 --> 00:14:40.859
  • See, a lot of things happen inour life, and if you just knew
  • 00:14:40.893 --> 00:14:42.728
  • how to deal with it, then youget past a lot of this stuff.
  • 00:14:42.761 --> 00:14:45.497
  • Trouble comes.
  • 00:14:45.531 --> 00:14:47.032
  • You go to the doctor.
  • 00:14:47.066 --> 00:14:48.600
  • He says, "You have cancer."
  • 00:14:48.634 --> 00:14:50.235
  • And what you say is "All right,I count it all joy because I
  • 00:14:50.269 --> 00:14:52.705
  • know that Jesus has healin."
  • 00:14:52.738 --> 00:14:56.775
  • And so, now, here's the fight.
  • 00:14:56.809 --> 00:14:59.345
  • Jesus has healing, and thenyou go to the next day.
  • 00:14:59.378 --> 00:15:01.780
  • Jesus has healing.
  • 00:15:01.814 --> 00:15:03.382
  • Then you go back to the doctor.
  • 00:15:03.415 --> 00:15:04.984
  • They say, "Oh, wesee that it's moved."
  • 00:15:05.017 --> 00:15:07.019
  • Jesus has healin'.
  • 00:15:07.052 --> 00:15:08.520
  • And then you go home,and you feel pain.
  • 00:15:08.554 --> 00:15:10.289
  • Jesus has healin'.
  • 00:15:10.322 --> 00:15:11.757
  • And then you justwonder about it.
  • 00:15:11.790 --> 00:15:13.425
  • Jesus has healin'.
  • 00:15:13.459 --> 00:15:14.893
  • In other words, he says, "Youcan have joy because you know,
  • 00:15:14.927 --> 00:15:17.196
  • if you'll be patient about'Jesus has healing,'"
  • 00:15:17.229 --> 00:15:21.333
  • what's gonna happen?
  • 00:15:21.367 --> 00:15:22.735
  • "You're gonna come out perfect,entire, wanting nothing."
  • 00:15:22.768 --> 00:15:26.038
  • Look at the next verse.
  • 00:15:26.071 --> 00:15:27.639
  • That's what he says.
  • 00:15:27.673 --> 00:15:29.541
  • He says, "But letpatience have her," what?
  • 00:15:29.575 --> 00:15:31.443
  • "Perfect work,that you may be," what?
  • 00:15:31.477 --> 00:15:33.512
  • "Perfect and," what?
  • 00:15:33.545 --> 00:15:35.147
  • "Entire and," what?
  • 00:15:35.180 --> 00:15:36.782
  • "Wanting," reason why you don'twant a--reason why you will not
  • 00:15:36.815 --> 00:15:38.751
  • want anything is becauseyou will have it.
  • 00:15:38.784 --> 00:15:43.389
  • And when you have it, you're notwanting it because you got it.
  • 00:15:43.422 --> 00:15:49.661
  • What I've just described, thisis what we do as Christians.
  • 00:15:49.695 --> 00:15:51.430
  • Stuff don't happen, but Irejoice because Jesus has
  • 00:15:51.463 --> 00:15:55.034
  • already given usauthority over it.
  • 00:15:55.067 --> 00:15:57.202
  • But most Christians don't knowhow to respond when
  • 00:15:57.236 --> 00:16:01.306
  • trouble comes.
  • 00:16:01.340 --> 00:16:02.975
  • When I went and I got thatcancer diagnosis, and, you know,
  • 00:16:03.008 --> 00:16:05.611
  • I hadn't even told Taffi.
  • 00:16:05.644 --> 00:16:08.414
  • I just took off and just got mymind occupied, doin'
  • 00:16:08.447 --> 00:16:11.150
  • something else.
  • 00:16:11.183 --> 00:16:12.718
  • I think I went to New York,preached that night, and I went
  • 00:16:12.751 --> 00:16:16.021
  • shoppin', and I think, you know,the guy called me up and asked
  • 00:16:16.055 --> 00:16:19.491
  • me if I wanted to do a comedyshow, and I thought, "Well, I'm
  • 00:16:19.525 --> 00:16:23.062
  • not gon' do that."
  • 00:16:23.095 --> 00:16:24.830
  • And Jesus said, "Do it."
  • 00:16:24.863 --> 00:16:27.599
  • It's a comedy show.
  • 00:16:27.633 --> 00:16:29.201
  • And I got the partof playing "Mr. Watson,"
  • 00:16:29.234 --> 00:16:31.804
  • a funeralhome director.
  • 00:16:31.837 --> 00:16:35.541
  • Turn to your neighbor andsay, "The devil is busy."
  • 00:16:40.079 --> 00:16:42.948
  • But we're busierthan he is, amen?
  • 00:16:42.981 --> 00:16:46.819
  • We laughed all day and halfthrough the night, just laughed,
  • 00:16:46.852 --> 00:16:51.757
  • and laughed, and laughed.
  • 00:16:51.790 --> 00:16:53.792
  • And so I told her.
  • 00:16:53.826 --> 00:16:55.527
  • I came in the room in myclothes, and I said, "Well,
  • 00:16:55.561 --> 00:16:57.629
  • went to the doctor, and theysaid that I had an aggressive
  • 00:16:57.663 --> 00:17:02.701
  • form of cancer in my prostate."
  • 00:17:02.734 --> 00:17:05.904
  • She looked at me.
  • 00:17:05.938 --> 00:17:07.473
  • She said--I mean, didn't flinch.
  • 00:17:07.506 --> 00:17:09.441
  • Didn't flinch.
  • 00:17:09.475 --> 00:17:11.543
  • "What's the plan?"
  • 00:17:11.577 --> 00:17:15.314
  • That's it.
  • 00:17:15.347 --> 00:17:17.182
  • You know, a part of me wanted tolook at her like, "What kind of
  • 00:17:17.216 --> 00:17:20.085
  • woman are you?
  • 00:17:20.119 --> 00:17:21.987
  • Don't you bend a little bit?"
  • 00:17:22.020 --> 00:17:24.056
  • She just stood there.
  • 00:17:24.089 --> 00:17:26.492
  • It wasn't ever gonna be asthough, "Oh, Lord Jesus--"
  • 00:17:26.525 --> 00:17:29.528
  • [sobbing]
  • 00:17:29.561 --> 00:17:31.230
  • "Oh, Jesus--"
  • 00:17:31.263 --> 00:17:32.631
  • [sobbing]
  • 00:17:32.664 --> 00:17:34.066
  • "Oh, no, Jesus."
  • 00:17:34.099 --> 00:17:35.434
  • You know how some of y'all are.
  • 00:17:35.467 --> 00:17:36.835
  • [sobbing]
  • 00:17:36.869 --> 00:17:38.437
  • "Oh, oh,Jesus, he gon' die."
  • 00:17:38.470 --> 00:17:39.838
  • You killin' him before they evengot a chance to do anything.
  • 00:17:39.872 --> 00:17:41.373
  • "He gon' die, Lord.
  • 00:17:41.406 --> 00:17:42.774
  • He gon'--"
  • 00:17:42.808 --> 00:17:44.376
  • Then they call everybody--

  • 00:17:54.853 --> 00:17:57.890
  • I knew you had some idea of whatyou wanted to do next, so that's
  • 00:17:57.923 --> 00:18:00.993
  • why I asked what was the plan.
  • 00:18:01.026 --> 00:18:02.794
  • I knew it was either surgeryor to some alternative type of
  • 00:18:02.828 --> 00:18:06.565

  • comes in.
  • 00:18:58.016 --> 00:18:59.952

  • 00:19:03.021 --> 00:19:04.723
  • of heaven.
  • 00:19:04.756 --> 00:19:06.592

  • 00:26:24.129 --> 00:26:26.998

  • And when it's ignited, it willrearrange and change things.
