| Jason Sobel & Michael W. Smith: Jesus in the Passover | March 30, 2026

I want to invite you
00:01:13.329 --> 00:01:15.064
To join me for a live, interactive
00:01:15.064 --> 00:01:18.234
Passover experience.
00:01:18.234 --> 00:01:23.106
We'll share the significance of the elements
00:01:24.007 --> 00:01:26.776
And invite you to participate in this special experience
00:01:26.776 --> 00:01:31.281
From your own home.
00:01:31.281 --> 00:02:02.045
Welcome to jesus in the passover.
00:02:02.779 --> 00:02:06.683
Holy week starts with palm sunday.
00:02:07.450 --> 00:02:11.120
We move through the week
00:02:11.654 --> 00:02:14.190
And there's a complex set of emotions,
00:02:14.190 --> 00:02:17.727
Jason, that we find ourselves in
00:02:17.727 --> 00:02:21.297
And we're meant to remember, were meant to reminisce.
00:02:21.297 --> 00:02:26.936
But interestingly, we're also meant to have a joyous occasion.
00:02:26.936 --> 00:02:32.642
But there's some unique, perspectives help us explain
00:02:32.642 --> 00:02:36.813
To our audience the emotions that are present tonight.
00:02:36.813 --> 00:02:40.950
The passover is meant to be a remembrance.
00:02:40.950 --> 00:02:43.720
And we're remembering two things.
00:02:43.720 --> 00:02:45.188
One, we were slaves in egypt, in the sufferings
00:02:45.188 --> 00:02:49.158
That our ancestors experience.
00:02:49.158 --> 00:02:51.361
And then there's the joy of the redemption.
00:02:51.361 --> 00:02:54.130
And in the same way, yeshua jesus as the greater than moses,
00:02:54.130 --> 00:02:58.501
As the greater passover lamb goes through the sufferings.
00:02:58.501 --> 00:03:02.839
And so that is a somber aspect for those of us that follow him.
00:03:02.839 --> 00:03:08.011
But yet even in says in the scriptures, for the joy
00:03:08.011 --> 00:03:11.214
Set before him, he endured the cross.
00:03:11.214 --> 00:03:14.217
But i think what's really important to get
00:03:14.217 --> 00:03:16.619
Is that while the passover and while communion
00:03:16.619 --> 00:03:21.758
And taking of the lord's supper, yes, it is a remembrance.
00:03:21.758 --> 00:03:24.727
Do this in remembrance of me.
00:03:24.727 --> 00:03:27.330
And he instituted it at a passover seder.
00:03:27.330 --> 00:03:31.401
But the biblical holidays are not just mere remembrances.
00:03:31.401 --> 00:03:36.339
There's something so much more.
00:03:36.339 --> 00:03:39.142
And what's interesting is that the hebrew word
00:03:39.142 --> 00:03:41.477
For the biblical holidays, one of them is hog.
00:03:41.477 --> 00:03:44.747
Can you say a hog without
00:03:44.747 --> 00:03:46.349
Gotta get the hun there as you're watching a hog.
00:03:46.349 --> 00:03:48.351
And that's not kosher, right?
00:03:48.351 --> 00:03:49.519
That hog which hog?
00:03:49.519 --> 00:03:52.021
Some happy holiday.
00:03:52.021 --> 00:03:54.090
And so
00:03:54.090 --> 00:03:55.325
The word hog actually comes from the hebrew word for circle,
00:03:55.325 --> 00:03:58.428
Because there is a secular nature to the biblical holidays.
00:03:58.428 --> 00:04:03.066
We know they come every year over and over.
00:04:03.066 --> 00:04:06.369
You go through them.
00:04:06.369 --> 00:04:07.503
So what? god did it that day.
00:04:07.503 --> 00:04:09.505
And that time happens again and again and again in our life.
00:04:09.505 --> 00:04:13.976
Because he's the god of the again.
00:04:13.976 --> 00:04:16.312
It's not just about passover past,
00:04:16.312 --> 00:04:19.182
It's about passover present.
00:04:19.182 --> 00:04:21.217
Yeah.
00:04:21.217 --> 00:04:21.617
I just want to
00:04:21.617 --> 00:04:22.752
To welcome everyone and have you be a part of tonight.
00:04:22.752 --> 00:04:26.022
We're going to take communion here in a minute.
00:04:26.022 --> 00:04:28.224
And, i remember sitting with my little grandma
00:04:28.224 --> 00:04:31.060
And grandpa
00:04:31.060 --> 00:04:31.694
Watching nights like this
00:04:31.694 --> 00:04:33.262
Where we would take communion together,
00:04:33.262 --> 00:04:35.398
And i don't care if you got a little club cracker
00:04:35.398 --> 00:04:37.934
Or you got a little saltine or little wheat, then maybe in your
00:04:37.934 --> 00:04:41.037
In your pantry, orange juice, anything will do.
00:04:41.037 --> 00:04:44.440
But get out, get out.
00:04:44.941 --> 00:04:46.209
A little bit of communion
00:04:46.209 --> 00:04:47.777
And let's take it together here in a minute.
00:04:47.777 --> 00:04:50.012
And let's take it together here in a minute. █get y.
00:04:50.446 --> 00:04:51.614
And let's
00:04:51.614 --> 00:04:52.815
Go into the seder meal service right now with jason sobel.
00:04:52.815 --> 00:04:56.586
You know, many people know, but some don't,
00:04:57.453 --> 00:05:00.289
That the last supper was actually a passover seder,
00:05:00.289 --> 00:05:05.595
And that's why this is so significant.
00:05:05.595 --> 00:05:08.398
We can't fully understand what jesus is hebrew name
00:05:08.398 --> 00:05:12.935
Yeshua, what he was doing with his disciples
00:05:12.935 --> 00:05:16.472
As they gathered around the table on this
00:05:16.472 --> 00:05:19.642
Very special evening in history.
00:05:19.642 --> 00:05:22.912
Passover reminds us
00:05:22.912 --> 00:05:24.814
Of the exodus, the coming forth out of egypt.
00:05:24.814 --> 00:05:28.217
But it also reminds us
00:05:28.217 --> 00:05:30.186
That what god did in the past is not just in the past.
00:05:30.186 --> 00:05:34.457
The hebrew word for the holidays is the word forgive him
00:05:34.457 --> 00:05:38.327
Or the word hog, and it literally means a circle.
00:05:38.327 --> 00:05:41.697
Why is there this connection between holiday and a circle?
00:05:41.697 --> 00:05:46.636
Because what god did in the past,
00:05:46.636 --> 00:05:48.871
He wants to do again and again and again in our life.
00:05:48.871 --> 00:05:53.643
Passover is not just a mere remembrance.
00:05:53.643 --> 00:05:56.946
It is meant to be a reoccurrence because god is the same.
00:05:56.946 --> 00:06:01.250
Yesterday, today, and forever.
00:06:01.250 --> 00:06:04.053
And just like he brought
00:06:04.053 --> 00:06:05.354
Redemption in the days of moses, just like he brought salvation
00:06:05.354 --> 00:06:09.325
Through jesus, our messiah and freedom as a result.
00:06:09.325 --> 00:06:13.396
So god wants to do something powerful in your life
00:06:13.396 --> 00:06:17.733
Right now, this evening, at this time,
00:06:17.733 --> 00:06:22.004
Because this is literally on
00:06:22.004 --> 00:06:24.440
The biblical calendar, a season and a month of miracles.
00:06:24.440 --> 00:06:28.611
So let's believe god
00:06:28.611 --> 00:06:30.446
To do something miraculous and supernatural.
00:06:30.446 --> 00:06:34.183
So think about it for a moment.
00:06:34.817 --> 00:06:36.319
Maybe some of you have seen that famous picture
00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:39.288
Of da vinci's last supper.
00:06:39.288 --> 00:06:41.524
And maybe if you're like myself, you'll notice
00:06:41.524 --> 00:06:44.393
There are a few things that are not quite kosher about it.
00:06:44.393 --> 00:06:48.831
Did you notice the type of bread they're eating in the picture?
00:06:48.831 --> 00:06:51.601
Big fluffy loaves of white bread?
00:06:51.601 --> 00:06:55.304
If there's anything you don't eat
00:06:55.304 --> 00:06:57.340
At the feast of unleavened bread, it is wonder bread.
00:06:57.340 --> 00:07:01.010
Okay.
00:07:01.010 --> 00:07:02.044
Just saying something else that's unusual about
00:07:02.044 --> 00:07:05.214
The picture is what they're eating for the main course.
00:07:05.214 --> 00:07:08.885
Listen, they should have been eating the passover lamb,
00:07:08.885 --> 00:07:13.289
But they're actually eating fish
00:07:13.289 --> 00:07:15.525
Because da vinci was a nice catholic boy.
00:07:15.525 --> 00:07:18.227
And you eat fish on fridays during lent.
00:07:18.227 --> 00:07:21.898
Okay. and there's another mystery.
00:07:21.898 --> 00:07:24.300
I'm not sure how today the passover lamb
00:07:24.300 --> 00:07:28.237
Became the easter ham,
00:07:28.237 --> 00:07:30.172
But that is going to be
00:07:30.172 --> 00:07:31.207
One of my first questions when i get to heaven
00:07:31.207 --> 00:07:33.376
For god to explain to me.
00:07:33.376 --> 00:07:34.810
It's a mystery, but someday we'll figure it out.
00:07:34.810 --> 00:07:38.314
But all that to say
00:07:38.314 --> 00:07:40.082
Is that the picture didn't quite get it right,
00:07:40.082 --> 00:07:43.185
And we want to get it right this evening.
00:07:44.086 --> 00:07:46.088
We want to see the bible in context, but more importantly,
00:07:46.088 --> 00:07:51.027
We want to see the scriptures in high definition.
00:07:51.027 --> 00:07:55.598
And i believe that as we look through all the elements
00:07:55.598 --> 00:07:59.235
Here this evening,
00:07:59.235 --> 00:08:00.436
We are going to see it come to life in a powerful way,
00:08:00.436 --> 00:08:03.906
Maybe in a way you've never seen it before.
00:08:03.906 --> 00:08:06.976
So i am super excited.
00:08:06.976 --> 00:08:09.078
I am also blessed to have some very special guests
00:08:09.078 --> 00:08:12.548
With us this evening.
00:08:12.548 --> 00:08:14.116
First, we have pastor alan jackson from world
00:08:14.116 --> 00:08:17.620
Outreach church.
00:08:17.620 --> 00:08:18.688
Thank you so much for being with us.
00:08:18.688 --> 00:08:21.190
You have such an incredible ministry impacting the world.
00:08:21.190 --> 00:08:24.327
Part of the tbn family as well.
00:08:24.327 --> 00:08:26.796
And your wonderful wife cathy is with us as well.
00:08:26.796 --> 00:08:30.333
Who's going to be helping me in a moment when we get started?
00:08:30.333 --> 00:08:33.970
We've got my friend nicole c, amazing, amazing
00:08:33.970 --> 00:08:39.508
Artist, singer, songwriter, and so glad to be able
00:08:39.508 --> 00:08:44.046
To have you to be able to interact with you.
00:08:44.046 --> 00:08:46.115
I know you are passionate about going deep into the word
00:08:46.115 --> 00:08:49.485
And last but not least, my wife miriam.
00:08:49.485 --> 00:08:53.122
Some of you might know as miriam webster.
00:08:54.023 --> 00:08:56.492
She's a recording artist as well,
00:08:56.492 --> 00:08:58.628
But so glad that she is here with us here this evening.
00:08:58.628 --> 00:09:02.632
Now, as we begin the passover, we always begin
00:09:02.632 --> 00:09:05.334
With the lighting of the candles.
00:09:05.334 --> 00:09:07.103
God is pictured in the bible as fire, as light
00:09:07.103 --> 00:09:11.774
By lighting the candles, we are going to usher
00:09:11.774 --> 00:09:14.176
In the light of god's presence here this evening.
00:09:14.176 --> 00:09:18.147
So i want to ask you, cassie,
00:09:18.147 --> 00:09:19.415
Would you please come and light the candles for us?
00:09:19.415 --> 00:09:23.519
The holidays always begin in the evening
00:09:23.519 --> 00:09:26.956
Because genesis one one says this by edward vi.
00:09:26.956 --> 00:09:31.193
He looked at a young
00:09:31.193 --> 00:09:32.728
As high as it was evening and morning the first day.
00:09:32.728 --> 00:09:36.532
So just like the biblical day begins in the evening.
00:09:36.532 --> 00:09:39.402
So every biblical holiday begins in the evening as well.
00:09:39.402 --> 00:09:43.439
Thank you.
00:09:43.439 --> 00:09:44.306
And we are going to say the blessing.
00:09:44.306 --> 00:10:00.089
Blessed are you, lord our god, king of the universe,
00:10:01.123 --> 00:10:03.926
Who has sanctified us by his commandments
00:10:03.926 --> 00:10:06.495
And has commanded us to be a light to the nations,
00:10:06.495 --> 00:10:09.965
And has given us yeshua the messiah,
00:10:09.965 --> 00:10:12.668
The light of the world. man,
00:10:12.668 --> 00:10:17.106
You'll notice here this evening
00:10:17.740 --> 00:10:19.075
That i'll be reading out of a book.
00:10:19.075 --> 00:10:21.277
Now, i had a friend by the name of chris
00:10:21.277 --> 00:10:23.245
Who i went to college with,
00:10:23.245 --> 00:10:24.647
And he saw me reading out of this book with my family.
00:10:24.647 --> 00:10:28.651
Everyone had one around the table, and he said, jason,
00:10:28.651 --> 00:10:31.220
I want to come to your house
00:10:31.220 --> 00:10:32.188
For dinner. i said, chris,
00:10:32.188 --> 00:10:33.489
You don't even know if my mom is a good cook.
00:10:33.489 --> 00:10:35.925
He said, listen, any family that reads out of a menu
00:10:35.925 --> 00:10:39.562
Around their dinner table, i want to go to their house.
00:10:39.562 --> 00:10:42.164
I said, chris, i'm sorry to disappoint you.
00:10:42.164 --> 00:10:44.800
This is not the menu for the evening.
00:10:44.800 --> 00:10:47.002
We've been a lot.
00:10:47.002 --> 00:10:48.237
This is known as a haggadah.
00:10:48.237 --> 00:10:51.107
Haggadah means to tell.
00:10:51.107 --> 00:10:52.942
This contains the seder.
00:10:52.942 --> 00:10:54.977
Seder means order.
00:10:54.977 --> 00:10:56.746
This has the order of the passover for the evening.
00:10:56.746 --> 00:11:00.916
All of the blessings of the reading.
00:11:00.916 --> 00:11:03.219
So you'll notice that at times i will be reading out of here
00:11:03.219 --> 00:11:07.823
As we go forward.
00:11:07.823 --> 00:11:10.092
Now with that, it is time to come
00:11:10.092 --> 00:11:13.729
To the first step in the passover seder.
00:11:13.729 --> 00:11:18.467
It is known as the first cup.
00:11:18.467 --> 00:11:20.736
Now you're going to notice that there are four cups here.
00:11:20.736 --> 00:11:23.739
This evening. why are there four cups?
00:11:23.739 --> 00:11:26.509
Because in exodus
00:11:26.509 --> 00:11:27.743
Six, six and seven there are four things god says.
00:11:27.743 --> 00:11:31.814
He says, therefore
00:11:31.814 --> 00:11:32.848
To the children of israel, i am adonai the lord.
00:11:32.848 --> 00:11:36.385
I will bring you out of the burdens
00:11:36.385 --> 00:11:38.621
And under the burdens of the egyptians.
00:11:38.621 --> 00:11:40.189
I will deliver you number two from their bondage.
00:11:40.189 --> 00:11:42.825
I will redeem you with an outstretched arm
00:11:42.825 --> 00:11:45.394
And with great judgments.
00:11:45.394 --> 00:11:46.962
And i will take you for myself to be my people.
00:11:46.962 --> 00:11:50.599
The four i wills, the four aspects of redemption.
00:11:50.599 --> 00:11:54.470
Exodus six six and seven.
00:11:54.470 --> 00:11:57.106
Hence we have here the four cups.
00:11:57.106 --> 00:12:00.409
Now whenever we drink one of these cups, and we invite you
00:12:00.409 --> 00:12:03.946
To drink along and participate as much as you want.
00:12:03.946 --> 00:12:07.516
We always, after we say the blessing when we drink it,
00:12:07.516 --> 00:12:10.986
We lean to the left.
00:12:10.986 --> 00:12:13.255
Now this has nothing to do with your politics, okay?
00:12:13.255 --> 00:12:17.193
Just to be clear, we lean to the left
00:12:17.193 --> 00:12:20.062
Because an ancient times when we were in egypt,
00:12:20.062 --> 00:12:23.299
We had to eat at the beck and call of our master.
00:12:23.299 --> 00:12:27.403
And so we are now
00:12:27.403 --> 00:12:30.339
Free men and women to celebrate the fact that we are royalty.
00:12:30.339 --> 00:12:34.276
We recline at the table as jesus and the disciples
00:12:34.276 --> 00:12:39.715
Reclined at the tables to remember this.
00:12:39.715 --> 00:12:43.018
This first cup.
00:12:43.018 --> 00:12:45.588
The cup of sanctification.
00:12:46.155 --> 00:12:48.257
This first step known as kadesh.
00:12:48.257 --> 00:12:51.293
We bless the cup.
00:12:51.293 --> 00:12:52.728
We're saying, god, sanctify this evening.
00:12:52.728 --> 00:12:55.931
Invest it with holiness.
00:12:55.931 --> 00:12:58.467
Invest it with your presence.
00:12:58.467 --> 00:13:00.769
Bring forth the depths of the meaning.
00:13:00.769 --> 00:13:03.973
And we fill the cup to the brim,
00:13:03.973 --> 00:13:06.075
Because god doesn't want us to live out of the lack.
00:13:06.075 --> 00:13:08.911
He wants us to live out of the overflow
00:13:08.911 --> 00:13:11.747
That god not only sets apart times and seasons,
00:13:11.747 --> 00:13:14.884
But he sets apart us to be part of his kingdom
00:13:14.884 --> 00:13:18.888
And to serve him.
00:13:18.888 --> 00:13:20.189
We are part of his royal priesthood.
00:13:20.189 --> 00:13:22.358
We are part of a holy nation in messiah yeshua jesus.
00:13:22.358 --> 00:13:27.529
Amen.
00:13:27.529 --> 00:13:28.664
And when he had taken a cup, he offered a blessing.
00:13:28.664 --> 00:13:33.002
He said, take this and shared among yourselves,
00:13:33.002 --> 00:13:36.005
For i tell you,
00:13:36.005 --> 00:13:37.172
I will never drink of the fruit of the vine
00:13:37.172 --> 00:13:39.141
Until i drink it in the kingdom of god.
00:13:39.141 --> 00:13:42.111
Would you
00:13:42.411 --> 00:13:43.545
Pour some grape juice and would you raise your cup?
00:13:43.545 --> 00:13:46.515
And i'm going to say the blessing
00:13:46.515 --> 00:14:07.169
Amen. blessed are you, o lord, our god,
00:14:07.970 --> 00:14:12.041
King of the universe, who brings forth the fruit of the vine.
00:14:12.041 --> 00:14:15.945
Okay, everyone lean to your left and drink.
00:14:15.945 --> 00:14:20.249
Check your coordination.
00:14:20.783 --> 00:14:24.386
And then we come to the second step
00:14:25.154 --> 00:14:27.356
Of the passover seder, known as or hot's.
00:14:27.356 --> 00:14:31.360
And we are going to wash our hands.
00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:36.432
Part of the reason why we wash our hands
00:14:36.432 --> 00:14:39.268
Is because we're wanting
00:14:39.268 --> 00:14:40.736
To prepare ourselves to partake of this wonderful evening here.
00:14:40.736 --> 00:14:44.840
But what's really interesting,
00:14:44.840 --> 00:14:46.875
It was at this point in the seder
00:14:46.875 --> 00:14:50.045
That you should jesus does something very significant.
00:14:51.113 --> 00:14:56.185
Usually the leader would wash his hands.
00:14:56.986 --> 00:14:59.989
But what does jesus do?
00:14:59.989 --> 00:15:02.391
He actually
00:15:02.391 --> 00:15:04.493
Gets down
00:15:04.493 --> 00:15:06.895
And begins to wash the feet of the disciples.
00:15:06.895 --> 00:15:11.066
A great act of service,
00:15:11.567 --> 00:15:13.769
A great act of humility,
00:15:13.769 --> 00:15:16.972
A king washing the seat of his subjects.
00:15:17.806 --> 00:15:22.344
But of course, friends,
00:15:22.845 --> 00:15:24.947
There is something more here.
00:15:24.947 --> 00:15:27.349
There is something deeper here.
00:15:27.349 --> 00:15:30.119
Did you ever wonder why it is significant that of all
00:15:30.119 --> 00:15:33.222
The parts of the body that he could have washed,
00:15:33.222 --> 00:15:35.724
He washes the feet of the disciples?
00:15:35.724 --> 00:15:41.096
Well, think about it for a moment.
00:15:41.864 --> 00:15:43.999
In the temple,
00:15:43.999 --> 00:15:45.501
Before the priests could minister,
00:15:45.501 --> 00:15:48.203
Before a sacrifice could be offered,
00:15:48.203 --> 00:15:51.206
Before they could offer incense or praise to god,
00:15:51.206 --> 00:15:54.643
Before they could do anything in service to the lord.
00:15:54.643 --> 00:15:57.913
What did they have to do?
00:15:57.913 --> 00:15:59.415
They had to wash both their hands and their feet.
00:15:59.415 --> 00:16:02.951
The hebrew word for sandals.
00:16:02.951 --> 00:16:05.287
When god says to moses, take off your sandals.
00:16:05.287 --> 00:16:07.956
The hebrew word is not a lion.
00:16:07.956 --> 00:16:10.259
Can you say not a lion?
00:16:10.259 --> 00:16:12.194
And the word
00:16:12.528 --> 00:16:13.729
For sandals actually comes from the hebrew word for lot.
00:16:13.729 --> 00:16:17.733
See, there were some things that was locking moses
00:16:17.733 --> 00:16:20.502
Out of his destiny.
00:16:20.502 --> 00:16:21.937
God, you can't use me. i'm too old.
00:16:21.937 --> 00:16:24.173
I'm heaviest speech. i'm slow at time.
00:16:24.173 --> 00:16:26.675
Sand.
00:16:26.675 --> 00:16:27.676
My brother aaron, you can't send me friends.
00:16:27.676 --> 00:16:30.479
All of us have those things better.
00:16:30.479 --> 00:16:33.315
Like egypt's that are locking us out of who
00:16:33.315 --> 00:16:36.285
God is calling us to be and what he wants us to become.
00:16:36.285 --> 00:16:40.022
We have things from the old season
00:16:40.022 --> 00:16:41.690
And god is saying, take those off, okay,
00:16:41.690 --> 00:16:44.726
You're about to step into something new.
00:16:44.726 --> 00:16:47.663
You can't wear the sandals of the old season
00:16:47.663 --> 00:16:50.499
When god's called you to step up into something new.
00:16:50.499 --> 00:16:53.435
So friends, there are some things
00:16:53.435 --> 00:16:55.037
You all need to leave in egypt here this evening. okay?
00:16:55.037 --> 00:16:57.940
There are some things you need to leave at the lord's table.
00:16:57.940 --> 00:17:01.076
As you step out of the old and you prepare to step in to
00:17:01.076 --> 00:17:05.013
The new, we come to the next step in the passover seder
00:17:05.013 --> 00:17:09.284
That jesus would have celebrated with his disciples.
00:17:09.284 --> 00:17:12.621
It is known as car pass.
00:17:12.621 --> 00:17:14.790
Can you say car pass?
00:17:14.790 --> 00:17:17.025
Car pass is actually a greek word that gets into
00:17:17.025 --> 00:17:21.463
The jewish seder, comes from the greek word fruits.
00:17:21.463 --> 00:17:24.666
And we are going to take
00:17:24.666 --> 00:17:25.767
A piece of green, in this case a piece of parsley.
00:17:25.767 --> 00:17:29.471
I invite all of you
00:17:29.471 --> 00:17:30.672
To take your piece of parsley and dip it in your salt water.
00:17:30.672 --> 00:17:35.477
Let me ask you a question.
00:17:35.477 --> 00:17:36.712
When you think about salt water, why do you think it represents
00:17:36.712 --> 00:17:40.315
Here at the passover seder, the tears of the slaves,
00:17:40.315 --> 00:17:44.453
The sweat of our brow, the saltiness of the red
00:17:44.453 --> 00:17:48.457
Sea that god parted for our ancestors?
00:17:48.457 --> 00:17:51.894
The green reminds us of the hyssop that we used
00:17:51.894 --> 00:17:54.863
To put the blood on the doorpost of our homes in egypt.
00:17:54.863 --> 00:17:59.668
It also is a reminder of the fact that in ancient times,
00:17:59.668 --> 00:18:03.338
When you had a banquet that was with people of means,
00:18:03.338 --> 00:18:08.710
Like you go
00:18:08.710 --> 00:18:09.811
To a fancy restaurant, you have a multi-course meal,
00:18:09.811 --> 00:18:13.315
And so you would begin by taking of a greenery like this
00:18:13.315 --> 00:18:17.352
Because it is
00:18:17.352 --> 00:18:18.520
Meant to cleanse your palate so that you could prepare
00:18:18.520 --> 00:18:21.957
To eat of the different foods that are before us,
00:18:21.957 --> 00:18:24.960
We're going to take the car pass and we're going to remember
00:18:24.960 --> 00:18:29.198
The suffering.
00:18:29.198 --> 00:18:30.032
We're going to remember the tears,
00:18:30.032 --> 00:18:31.433
And we're going to remember the fact
00:18:31.433 --> 00:18:33.435
That just like god saw the tears of israel,
00:18:33.435 --> 00:18:36.405
He sees every one of your tears.
00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:40.876
He knows every tear.
00:18:41.343 --> 00:18:42.844
You cried.
00:18:42.844 --> 00:18:44.246
He knows every loss that you've ever gone through.
00:18:44.246 --> 00:18:48.116
And not one tears will be forgotten.
00:18:48.917 --> 00:18:51.587
It is remembered in heaven.
00:18:51.587 --> 00:18:53.589
And one day he will wipe every tear from your eye,
00:18:53.589 --> 00:18:57.693
Just like he wipe the tears from the children of israel's eyes.
00:18:57.693 --> 00:19:01.763
When after generations he remembered
00:19:01.763 --> 00:19:04.866
And brought them forth of the land of israel.
00:19:04.866 --> 00:19:07.936
Let's say the blessing
00:19:07.936 --> 00:19:32.027
Blessed are you, o lord, our god,
00:19:32.761 --> 00:19:36.398
King of the universe, creator
00:19:37.032 --> 00:19:40.135
Of the fruit of the ground.
00:19:40.736 --> 00:19:43.872
Amen.
00:19:44.106 --> 00:19:44.773
Let's take and eat.
00:19:44.773 --> 00:19:48.343
So we talked about the car pass,
00:19:48.977 --> 00:19:52.681
But now we're going to talk about
00:19:53.415 --> 00:19:54.983
One of the most spiritually significant moments
00:19:54.983 --> 00:20:01.723
That's going to
00:20:02.090 --> 00:20:02.791
Lead to an even more important,
00:20:02.791 --> 00:20:05.694
Deeper moment in the passover seder is called your thoughts.
00:20:05.694 --> 00:20:09.631
Can you say your thoughts?
00:20:09.631 --> 00:20:10.932
You gotta get the how is that spitting on your neighbor?
00:20:10.932 --> 00:20:13.068
Your thoughts?
00:20:13.068 --> 00:20:14.569
Okay, it's making you jewish here this evening.
00:20:14.569 --> 00:20:17.105
Okay, little israeli there.
00:20:17.105 --> 00:20:18.907
This is known as ahmad to to say the task.
00:20:18.907 --> 00:20:22.778
This is a matza bag.
00:20:23.245 --> 00:20:25.480
And in this matza bag there are actually three compartments.
00:20:25.480 --> 00:20:30.719
And in each one of these compartments,
00:20:30.719 --> 00:20:32.721
There is a piece of mozza of unleavened bread.
00:20:32.721 --> 00:20:38.427
And what we are going to do at this moment
00:20:38.427 --> 00:20:40.896
Is that we are actually going to take here
00:20:40.896 --> 00:20:44.499
The middle piece of mozza,
00:20:44.499 --> 00:20:47.169
And we are going to break it into uneven pieces.
00:20:47.169 --> 00:20:51.673
And the smaller piece we will put back into the middle
00:20:51.673 --> 00:20:55.444
Pouch and the larger piece. in a moment,
00:20:55.444 --> 00:20:58.180
We are going to take and wrap up in a linen cloth.
00:20:58.180 --> 00:21:01.550
And then it would be traditional to hide that middle
00:21:01.550 --> 00:21:04.653
Piece of matzah that becomes what is known as the ofi comb.
00:21:04.653 --> 00:21:09.291
And can you say ofi cumin?
00:21:09.291 --> 00:21:11.493
But the question that we have
00:21:12.127 --> 00:21:13.195
To ask is, why are there three pieces of masa?
00:21:13.195 --> 00:21:17.232
What does it refer to?
00:21:17.232 --> 00:21:18.767
Some say it refers to the division
00:21:18.767 --> 00:21:20.902
Of the people of israel, the priests,
00:21:20.902 --> 00:21:24.039
The levites, and the rest of the tribes of israel.
00:21:24.039 --> 00:21:27.275
Others say it refers to
00:21:27.776 --> 00:21:31.279
Abraham, isaac and jacob, the three of the three patriarchs.
00:21:31.279 --> 00:21:36.551
And you have to understand
00:21:36.551 --> 00:21:37.619
Where there's three jews, there's six opinions.
00:21:37.619 --> 00:21:39.721
So there's lots of opinions
00:21:39.721 --> 00:21:41.456
On what these three pieces are to me.
00:21:41.456 --> 00:21:43.759
But i want us to think about the spiritual significance of this
00:21:43.759 --> 00:21:47.496
When they say abraham, isaac and jacob,
00:21:47.496 --> 00:21:50.966
If we break the middle piece of masa, then
00:21:50.966 --> 00:21:54.002
What is referred to it refers to isaac.
00:21:54.002 --> 00:21:58.473
Why is that significant?
00:21:58.473 --> 00:22:01.042
Because think about it for a moment.
00:22:01.042 --> 00:22:03.178
Isaac is a type of messiah.
00:22:03.779 --> 00:22:05.781
God said, take your son, your only begotten son,
00:22:05.781 --> 00:22:09.184
And offer him on the mountain that i will show you.
00:22:09.184 --> 00:22:11.953
Isaac carried his own wood like jesus carried his cross.
00:22:11.953 --> 00:22:16.491
Think about it for a moment.
00:22:16.491 --> 00:22:17.993
What's amazing here is that the new hebrews alphanumeric.
00:22:17.993 --> 00:22:22.297
That means you write numbers with letters.
00:22:22.297 --> 00:22:24.032
So every word has a numerical value.
00:22:24.032 --> 00:22:26.334
The numerical value of isaac
00:22:26.334 --> 00:22:29.571
Has the same
00:22:29.905 --> 00:22:32.641
Numerical value
00:22:32.641 --> 00:22:35.677
Of something also very significant as well.
00:22:35.677 --> 00:22:40.248
And so what this ultimately points to
00:22:40.248 --> 00:22:43.552
Is the fact that isaac
00:22:44.019 --> 00:22:46.488
Is a picture of the messiah,
00:22:46.488 --> 00:22:50.025
Because these two masses point to the two messiah's jubilee.
00:22:50.025 --> 00:22:54.162
There's two messiahs messiah, son of joseph,
00:22:54.162 --> 00:22:57.699
The suffering servant, and messiah, son of david,
00:22:57.699 --> 00:23:01.336
The one who's going to rule and reign.
00:23:01.336 --> 00:23:03.271
The numerical value of isaac has the same numerical value of
00:23:03.271 --> 00:23:06.708
Son of joseph. it points to joseph's
00:23:06.708 --> 00:23:09.911
As the one who's going to suffer.
00:23:10.612 --> 00:23:12.647
And the first coming.
00:23:12.647 --> 00:23:13.648
Jesus came
00:23:13.648 --> 00:23:14.983
As the suffering servant, and he was literally what
00:23:14.983 --> 00:23:17.919
The son of joseph to die for us.
00:23:17.919 --> 00:23:20.922
Now we come to the second cup
00:23:20.922 --> 00:23:20.989
Now we come to the second cup
00:23:21.623 --> 00:23:25.193
Known as the cup of plagues,
00:23:25.193 --> 00:23:28.897
And so significant, the cup of plagues.
00:23:28.897 --> 00:23:32.033
It reminds us of the ten plagues that god brought upon
00:23:32.033 --> 00:23:36.705
The egyptians. he didn't just redeem us.
00:23:36.705 --> 00:23:39.341
He redeemed us with great signs and with great wonders.
00:23:39.341 --> 00:23:43.278
And there's so much deep spiritual significance
00:23:43.278 --> 00:23:47.182
In this cup.
00:23:47.182 --> 00:23:48.250
Listen, the ten plagues
00:23:48.250 --> 00:23:51.586
That moses brought connects directly to yeshua,
00:23:51.586 --> 00:23:55.323
Because moses tells us there's the prophecy that the messiah
00:23:55.323 --> 00:23:59.461
Was going to be the prophet that was greater than moses.
00:23:59.461 --> 00:24:02.864
The rabbis say, as it was with the first redeemer,
00:24:02.864 --> 00:24:06.101
So will it be with the second redeemer.
00:24:06.101 --> 00:24:09.271
So think about it for a moment.
00:24:09.271 --> 00:24:11.006
When moses comes to redeem the children of israel out of egypt,
00:24:11.006 --> 00:24:15.010
He turns the water into blood for the first plague.
00:24:15.010 --> 00:24:19.915
When messiah comes to redeem israel and the nations
00:24:19.915 --> 00:24:24.085
To show to the world that he is the greater than moses,
00:24:24.085 --> 00:24:27.022
He does his first miracle with what?
00:24:27.022 --> 00:24:29.190
With water.
00:24:29.190 --> 00:24:30.325
He turns the water not into blood.
00:24:30.325 --> 00:24:32.694
He turns the water into wine. why?
00:24:32.694 --> 00:24:34.963
Because he comes
00:24:34.963 --> 00:24:36.064
That we might have life and have it more abundantly.
00:24:36.064 --> 00:24:39.601
Amen. and think about it for a moment.
00:24:39.601 --> 00:24:42.170
We can't get into the depths of that, but think about it.
00:24:42.170 --> 00:24:44.639
The ninth place that egypt was host, it was darkness.
00:24:44.639 --> 00:24:48.710
When jesus hung there on the cross,
00:24:48.710 --> 00:24:51.446
There was how many hours of darkness?
00:24:51.446 --> 00:24:53.982
Three hours of darkness. why?
00:24:53.982 --> 00:24:56.318
Because there was three days of darkness on egypt in that day.
00:24:56.318 --> 00:25:01.456
And then he gives.
00:25:01.456 --> 00:25:02.624
He's hanging there on the cross.
00:25:02.624 --> 00:25:04.426
He dies at the time that the passover lamb was offered.
00:25:04.426 --> 00:25:08.196
Think about it for a moment.
00:25:08.196 --> 00:25:09.631
The ninth plague, darkness, the 10th plagues,
00:25:09.631 --> 00:25:12.434
The death of the firstborn that was god's firstborn son,
00:25:12.434 --> 00:25:16.371
Dying there on that cross for us as the passover lamb,
00:25:16.371 --> 00:25:21.876
So that we could be set free as well.
00:25:21.876 --> 00:25:25.146
So there's so much rich spiritual and messianic
00:25:25.146 --> 00:25:28.750
Significance that points to our redeemer, yeshua jesus.
00:25:28.750 --> 00:25:32.887
In this second cup.
00:25:32.887 --> 00:25:35.123
I want you to think about it for a moment.
00:25:35.123 --> 00:25:39.594
After yeshua
00:25:39.928 --> 00:25:40.929
Celebrated the sader with his disciples,
00:25:40.929 --> 00:25:44.666
He went to the garden of gethsemane. he
00:25:44.666 --> 00:25:48.370
I love taking people to israel on a rock road.
00:25:48.370 --> 00:25:51.806
Rabbi tours.
00:25:51.806 --> 00:25:52.574
One of my favorite places
00:25:52.574 --> 00:25:53.742
To take them is the garden of gethsemane.
00:25:53.742 --> 00:25:57.746
So powerful
00:25:58.079 --> 00:26:00.415
And in the garden
00:26:00.415 --> 00:26:02.350
He prayed three times to the lord.
00:26:02.350 --> 00:26:04.786
What?
00:26:04.786 --> 00:26:05.487
Take this cup from me.
00:26:05.487 --> 00:26:08.657
What cup was he talking about?
00:26:09.257 --> 00:26:11.693
I believe he was talking about the cup of plagues.
00:26:11.693 --> 00:26:15.630
Because when he died there on the cross, he took the judgment.
00:26:15.630 --> 00:26:19.734
He took the plagues that we rightfully deserve.
00:26:19.734 --> 00:26:23.672
He took the wrath upon himself.
00:26:23.672 --> 00:26:25.640
And if you read the book of revelation,
00:26:25.640 --> 00:26:27.709
Much of the judgment
00:26:27.709 --> 00:26:28.977
On the world actually connects back to the plagues on egypt.
00:26:28.977 --> 00:26:33.014
There's a direct correlation and connection back.
00:26:33.014 --> 00:26:36.017
He was drinking the cup
00:26:36.017 --> 00:26:37.752
Of judgment, so we didn't have to drink it and listen.
00:26:37.752 --> 00:26:42.924
Why did he pray three times he was in the garden
00:26:42.924 --> 00:26:45.994
Of gethsemane.
00:26:45.994 --> 00:26:46.728
He get so many.
00:26:46.728 --> 00:26:48.029
Literally means the place of the olive press.
00:26:48.029 --> 00:26:51.399
Olives go through three pressings.
00:26:52.133 --> 00:26:55.570
The first pressing is just the weight of the olives themselves.
00:26:55.570 --> 00:26:59.441
It's the purest.
00:26:59.841 --> 00:27:01.176
Then weight is added, more of the oil comes out,
00:27:01.176 --> 00:27:05.346
And then more weight is added
00:27:05.346 --> 00:27:08.183
Until every ounce of oil comes out.
00:27:08.183 --> 00:27:12.687
Under the weight of the crushing of the olives.
00:27:12.687 --> 00:27:17.058
Yeshua was the
00:27:17.392 --> 00:27:18.893
Olives in the olive press,
00:27:18.893 --> 00:27:22.230
And the weight of the burden of our sin
00:27:22.230 --> 00:27:26.267
And of that of the world was being laid upon him
00:27:26.267 --> 00:27:30.472
Until literally beads of blood
00:27:30.472 --> 00:27:33.341
Began to come forth from him.
00:27:33.341 --> 00:27:36.444
When he drank the cup in the garden,
00:27:36.444 --> 00:27:39.047
He was drinking your pain and he was drinking your shame.
00:27:39.047 --> 00:27:44.085
So you don't have to drink the pain and the shame anymore.
00:27:44.085 --> 00:27:48.289
Would you give him your cup?
00:27:48.289 --> 00:27:50.191
Would you give him your cup?
00:27:50.792 --> 00:27:53.895
Okay.
00:27:53.895 --> 00:27:54.529
Would you recite after me?
00:27:54.529 --> 00:27:57.365
Okay, we're going to take our pinky
00:27:57.365 --> 00:27:59.934
And we are going to spill the ten drops together.
00:27:59.934 --> 00:28:04.806
Okay? okay. you ready?
00:28:04.806 --> 00:28:06.207
Why do we spill ten drops?
00:28:06.207 --> 00:28:07.709
Because wine or grape juice is a symbol of joy.
00:28:07.709 --> 00:28:11.479
We can't rejoice in the suffering of our enemies
00:28:11.479 --> 00:28:15.183
Even when it's to our benefit.
00:28:15.183 --> 00:28:16.918
So we diminish our joy tenfold.
00:28:16.918 --> 00:28:19.854
We'll say it in english, and then you
00:28:19.854 --> 00:28:21.556
Can attempt in hebrew with me if you want, say blood
00:28:21.556 --> 00:28:41.109
Devil or boils.
00:28:41.476 --> 00:28:53.988
Darkness.
00:28:54.289 --> 00:29:02.497
You can lick your pinky if it's clean.
00:29:03.331 --> 00:29:06.067
Friends, this is the original personality test.
00:29:07.001 --> 00:29:10.205
You can look and see what patterns
00:29:10.205 --> 00:29:11.539
People made on their thing.
00:29:11.539 --> 00:29:13.541
You can tell a lot about them by their drops on their plate.
00:29:13.541 --> 00:29:18.079
We remember
00:29:18.413 --> 00:29:20.348
The third second cup and we'll bless it.
00:29:20.348 --> 00:29:40.368
Amen. blessed are you.
00:29:40.835 --> 00:29:43.238
Oh, lord.
00:29:43.238 --> 00:29:44.472
Our god, king of the universe, who brings forth the fruit of
00:29:44.472 --> 00:29:47.375
The vine.
00:29:47.375 --> 00:29:48.142
Let's lean to our left and drink.
00:29:48.142 --> 00:29:52.981
Jesus said, what can a scribe who understands
00:29:53.915 --> 00:29:55.650
The kingdom of god be compared to?
00:29:55.650 --> 00:29:57.652
Like a householder that brings forth treasures, new and old?
00:29:57.652 --> 00:30:01.789
Listen, many jews settle for the old.
00:30:01.789 --> 00:30:04.626
Many christians settle for the new.
00:30:04.626 --> 00:30:06.060
But the full inheritance is old and new coming together.
00:30:06.060 --> 00:30:09.330
Listen, don't settle for a half an inheritance.
00:30:09.330 --> 00:30:12.934
So say i'm not settling for half an inheritance, okay?
00:30:12.934 --> 00:30:16.204
Dead go for thing.
00:30:16.204 --> 00:30:18.206
And with that, i want to continue to discuss
00:30:18.206 --> 00:30:20.775
What is on the passover seder plate.
00:30:20.775 --> 00:30:25.179
You notice here that we have a bone.
00:30:25.179 --> 00:30:28.683
Okay.
00:30:28.683 --> 00:30:29.284
This is a lamb bone.
00:30:29.284 --> 00:30:31.719
And hebrew it is known as zero.
00:30:31.719 --> 00:30:34.088
Can you say is the roa
00:30:34.088 --> 00:30:35.990
Zero literally means arm in hebrew
00:30:36.724 --> 00:30:39.527
Because god redeemed us with a yod, has a car, a mighty hand,
00:30:39.527 --> 00:30:44.332
And a zero net to your an outstretched arm.
00:30:44.332 --> 00:30:48.703
So this reminds us of the arm of the lord,
00:30:48.703 --> 00:30:51.639
Of the great salvation that he brought for our ancestors,
00:30:51.639 --> 00:30:55.310
And the reason why it is a lamb bone.
00:30:55.310 --> 00:30:58.012
A lamb shank, traditionally, is because at passover,
00:30:58.012 --> 00:31:03.051
Because of the 10th plague, they had to offer the lamb.
00:31:03.051 --> 00:31:07.088
So historically, jews a lamb at passover.
00:31:07.088 --> 00:31:10.458
But since god's house, the temple in jerusalem,
00:31:10.458 --> 00:31:13.528
The place where
00:31:13.528 --> 00:31:14.629
Jesus would often go as a child and go to celebrate
00:31:14.629 --> 00:31:17.332
The holidays with his disciples has been destroyed.
00:31:17.332 --> 00:31:21.302
Many jewish people no longer eat lamb on passover,
00:31:21.302 --> 00:31:25.206
Because we can offer the actual passover lamb today.
00:31:25.206 --> 00:31:31.713
So the mazza is the unleavened bread.
00:31:31.713 --> 00:31:34.882
This is known as the bread of affliction.
00:31:34.882 --> 00:31:37.318
The left them on me, but it is also reminds us of redemption.
00:31:37.318 --> 00:31:41.956
The reason why we eat unleavened bread is because one.
00:31:41.956 --> 00:31:45.693
It reminds us of our slavery.
00:31:45.693 --> 00:31:47.328
Look, it's pierced, it's strife. it's broken.
00:31:47.328 --> 00:31:50.264
It looks like it's got sunburn from being in the oven.
00:31:50.264 --> 00:31:53.201
It's like the back in the bodies of our ancestors.
00:31:53.201 --> 00:31:57.038
And what they went through in egypt.
00:31:57.038 --> 00:31:59.941
It is a tangible reminder of the physical sufferings.
00:31:59.941 --> 00:32:04.445
Our ancestors experienced their affliction.
00:32:04.445 --> 00:32:08.383
But it also reminds us of the fact
00:32:08.383 --> 00:32:10.084
God brought us out of egypt so quickly
00:32:10.084 --> 00:32:12.820
That as their bread did not have time to rise.
00:32:12.820 --> 00:32:16.424
So we eat unleavened bread as they ate unleavened bread.
00:32:16.424 --> 00:32:21.295
And it is this much, that jesus would have a at the passover
00:32:21.295 --> 00:32:26.801
With his disciples as they were gathered around the table.
00:32:26.801 --> 00:32:31.039
And we're going to look and see the much deeper
00:32:31.039 --> 00:32:31.839
But it's so amazing because we say
00:32:31.839 --> 00:32:34.308
That this is the bread of affliction,
00:32:34.308 --> 00:32:37.445
The word for affliction in hebrew last time.
00:32:37.445 --> 00:32:40.648
Oney is also used in isaiah 53.
00:32:40.648 --> 00:32:45.386
He was pierced for our
00:32:45.853 --> 00:32:46.821
Transgression, crushed for our iniquities,
00:32:46.821 --> 00:32:50.191
And the affliction that we deserved was upon him
00:32:51.192 --> 00:32:54.228
As we're going to see.
00:32:54.695 --> 00:32:55.997
He literally is the bread of affliction
00:32:55.997 --> 00:33:00.068
For you and for me.
00:33:00.068 --> 00:33:04.505
And then we're going to take a piece of this mozza here.
00:33:04.505 --> 00:33:09.343
Everyone get out some masa.
00:33:09.343 --> 00:33:10.745
If you have your masa,
00:33:10.745 --> 00:33:12.280
We're going to take some of the mindset.
00:33:12.280 --> 00:33:14.582
We are going to bless the masa together.
00:33:14.582 --> 00:33:20.888
And remember what god did
00:33:21.456 --> 00:33:23.057
For our ancestors
00:33:23.057 --> 00:33:48.015
Are you, o lord, our god, king of the universe,
00:33:49.016 --> 00:33:52.487
Who brings forth bread from the earth.
00:33:52.487 --> 00:33:57.558
Man, let's all take some of the bites, and eat
00:33:57.558 --> 00:34:00.862
It and remind us of a reminder of what god has done for us.
00:34:00.862 --> 00:34:05.833
Okay, roger tied in on him almost a last minute.
00:34:05.833 --> 00:34:09.203
Arts. amen.
00:34:09.203 --> 00:34:12.173
Friends, if you eat matzo
00:34:12.740 --> 00:34:13.908
For seven days, you'll know the meaning of wet.
00:34:13.908 --> 00:34:16.978
My people. god of.
00:34:16.978 --> 00:34:20.381
And then we have to remember
00:34:20.381 --> 00:34:23.217
One of the key
00:34:23.217 --> 00:34:25.653
Bitter herbs.
00:34:25.653 --> 00:34:27.455
The bitter herb known as ma raw.
00:34:27.455 --> 00:34:31.125
Can you say ma raw?
00:34:31.125 --> 00:34:33.861
This is represented by the horseradish on your plate.
00:34:33.861 --> 00:34:37.732
This is meant to remind us of the bitterness
00:34:37.732 --> 00:34:41.002
Of slavery in egypt.
00:34:41.002 --> 00:34:42.603
It is meant to be hot.
00:34:42.603 --> 00:34:44.405
It is meant to bring tears to our eyes.
00:34:44.405 --> 00:34:47.408
Traditionally, you're supposed to eat half an eggs.
00:34:47.408 --> 00:34:50.545
Volumes worth this separates the men from the boys.
00:34:50.545 --> 00:34:54.515
The women from the young girls
00:34:54.515 --> 00:34:57.285
Don't want anyone to hurt themselves.
00:34:57.285 --> 00:34:58.719
Not saying you have to do that here this evening.
00:34:58.719 --> 00:35:00.688
Okay, but in a moment, what we are going to do
00:35:00.688 --> 00:35:04.892
Is that we are going to take some of what's
00:35:04.892 --> 00:35:07.695
Known as the heart, the lettuce we are going to.
00:35:07.695 --> 00:35:11.832
You can now take some of that, dip it in the,
00:35:11.832 --> 00:35:16.204
Dip it in the raw.
00:35:16.637 --> 00:35:19.006
That reminds us of the bitterness of slavery.
00:35:19.006 --> 00:35:22.143
And we are going to take and eat this together.
00:35:22.143 --> 00:35:26.914
Okay.
00:35:26.914 --> 00:35:28.082
So we're going to say the blessing.
00:35:28.082 --> 00:35:49.537
Blessed are you. oh, lord.
00:35:50.104 --> 00:35:51.105
Our god, king of the universe,
00:35:51.105 --> 00:35:52.139
Who sanctifies us by his commandments
00:35:52.139 --> 00:35:54.408
And commands us to eat the bitter herbs of man.
00:35:54.408 --> 00:35:59.714
Who? friends, life is bitter without the lord.
00:36:00.648 --> 00:36:04.852
It's only him
00:36:05.219 --> 00:36:06.454
Who takes the bitterness and transforms it into sweetness.
00:36:06.454 --> 00:36:10.925
And we remember that in the next part
00:36:10.925 --> 00:36:14.495
Of the eating of the passover seder,
00:36:14.495 --> 00:36:18.065
What we are going to do is we are going to make a sandwich.
00:36:18.065 --> 00:36:22.570
This is known as hell sandwich.
00:36:22.570 --> 00:36:25.506
Hell, the famous rabbi.
00:36:25.506 --> 00:36:28.009
Okay, he would take two pieces of mozza,
00:36:28.009 --> 00:36:33.114
Dip a little bit in the horseradish,
00:36:33.114 --> 00:36:36.884
Then he would take the heroseth can you say heroseth?
00:36:36.884 --> 00:36:40.454
Said the whole roasted is this other mixture.
00:36:40.454 --> 00:36:44.258
It is meant to remind us
00:36:44.258 --> 00:36:46.060
Of the mortar that we use to make bricks in egypt.
00:36:46.060 --> 00:36:50.364
But it actually is not bitter.
00:36:50.364 --> 00:36:52.300
It actually tastes sweet.
00:36:52.300 --> 00:36:54.368
It's made out of apples
00:36:54.368 --> 00:36:57.305
And walnuts and grape juice and cinnamon.
00:36:57.305 --> 00:37:02.009
And the reason why is because when we knew
00:37:02.009 --> 00:37:05.880
The bitterness of slavery was coming to an end,
00:37:05.880 --> 00:37:08.949
Even the bitterness became sweet.
00:37:08.949 --> 00:37:11.786
So make your sandwiches.
00:37:11.786 --> 00:37:13.854
And after you have made your sandwiches,
00:37:13.854 --> 00:37:17.925
I just want to invite you
00:37:17.925 --> 00:37:21.262
To take and eat of the sandwich.
00:37:21.262 --> 00:37:24.632
Hello sandwich.
00:37:24.632 --> 00:37:26.701
I'm. i'm
00:37:26.967 --> 00:37:28.836
Friends.
00:37:28.836 --> 00:37:30.171
The word for the passover.
00:37:30.171 --> 00:37:31.939
The lamb.
00:37:31.939 --> 00:37:32.807
The word for what we're celebrating here
00:37:32.807 --> 00:37:35.242
This evening is passover in english.
00:37:35.242 --> 00:37:39.146
But i want you to say.
00:37:39.146 --> 00:37:42.450
The numerical
00:37:42.450 --> 00:37:43.317
Value of passover is 148.
00:37:43.317 --> 00:37:48.422
You know why that's significant?
00:37:48.422 --> 00:37:50.224
It's the same numerical value of the word nets.
00:37:50.224 --> 00:37:52.993
Ask in hebrew, can you say that's off
00:37:52.993 --> 00:37:55.763
Nets?
00:37:55.763 --> 00:37:56.597
Means victory.
00:37:56.597 --> 00:37:58.532
It is by the passover lamb in his blood.
00:37:58.532 --> 00:38:02.536
148 that we have victory.
00:38:02.536 --> 00:38:06.040
Amen.
00:38:06.040 --> 00:38:07.174
Say, i've got victory in messiah.
00:38:07.174 --> 00:38:11.245
It's awesome.
00:38:11.612 --> 00:38:12.680
When you look at the hebrew word for strength, it's
00:38:12.680 --> 00:38:16.317
Also the numerical value of the word for plague
00:38:16.317 --> 00:38:20.154
And for promise and for children of god, bani elohim.
00:38:20.154 --> 00:38:25.359
Because when we believe in yeshua 148,
00:38:25.359 --> 00:38:28.729
He gives us the strength 148 to have the victory.
00:38:28.729 --> 00:38:32.500
148 to overcome the plague of judgment.
00:38:32.500 --> 00:38:36.137
148 and it gives us a promise,
00:38:36.137 --> 00:38:39.807
148 that we might become the children of god.
00:38:39.807 --> 00:38:43.677
148 turn as someone to say, you're a child of the king.
00:38:43.677 --> 00:38:49.817
You're a child of the king.
00:38:50.418 --> 00:38:53.020
Friends, what god has done for us is overwhelming.
00:38:53.020 --> 00:38:55.990
Through jesus.
00:38:55.990 --> 00:39:00.127
It's so good.
00:39:00.494 --> 00:39:02.062
It seems like it's science fiction.
00:39:02.062 --> 00:39:05.166
We have on our seder plate a few other things.
00:39:05.166 --> 00:39:08.702
One is an egg why an egg.
00:39:08.702 --> 00:39:10.471
It reminds us of the other festival sacrifices
00:39:10.471 --> 00:39:14.275
Offered in the temple.
00:39:14.275 --> 00:39:15.910
Why is it round?
00:39:15.910 --> 00:39:17.478
Because it's round like the circle of life.
00:39:17.478 --> 00:39:20.381
Life comes from an egg.
00:39:20.381 --> 00:39:22.750
In the old testament
00:39:22.750 --> 00:39:23.851
It says
00:39:23.851 --> 00:39:24.852
Without the shedding of blood, there'll
00:39:24.852 --> 00:39:26.454
Be no remission of sins.
00:39:26.454 --> 00:39:28.255
And so sacrifices helped cover the sin and bring life
00:39:28.255 --> 00:39:32.927
Until messiah came.
00:39:32.927 --> 00:39:34.094
We'll talk more about that,
00:39:34.094 --> 00:39:35.863
Brown, because the sacrifices were roasted.
00:39:35.863 --> 00:39:40.401
And so we have all of these things on our plate
00:39:40.401 --> 00:39:43.871
To remind us of what god did.
00:39:43.871 --> 00:39:45.873
And at this point, it would be time
00:39:45.873 --> 00:39:47.341
To have the big festive passover meal.
00:39:47.341 --> 00:39:52.847
And it would be a multi-course meal.
00:39:53.614 --> 00:39:56.717
It would be a feast.
00:39:56.717 --> 00:39:58.352
Jesus would have done this with his disciples
00:39:58.352 --> 00:40:01.856
And what it's meant to be.
00:40:01.856 --> 00:40:03.724
It was meant to be a sneak preview
00:40:03.724 --> 00:40:07.228
Of the
00:40:07.428 --> 00:40:08.596
Marriage supper of the lamb in the messianic kingdom,
00:40:08.596 --> 00:40:11.632
Which all of us will be able to experience one day.
00:40:11.632 --> 00:40:15.236
I can't wait.
00:40:15.603 --> 00:40:16.837
I don't know about you, but i'm looking forward to that day.
00:40:16.837 --> 00:40:18.639
That is going to be one good meal,
00:40:18.639 --> 00:40:22.142
So one of the things we have to understand
00:40:23.043 --> 00:40:25.613
Is that after the meal is eaten, what we have to understand
00:40:25.613 --> 00:40:30.684
Is that the kids would then go searching from room to room
00:40:30.684 --> 00:40:35.523
To find that hidden piece of masa
00:40:35.523 --> 00:40:39.527
That was broken earlier and that was placed away.
00:40:39.527 --> 00:40:43.898
So i want you to think
00:40:43.898 --> 00:40:44.999
About the significance of this middle piece of masa.
00:40:44.999 --> 00:40:48.269
This is known. can you say afikomen?
00:40:48.269 --> 00:40:50.804
Think about it for a moment.
00:40:50.804 --> 00:40:53.007
This is unleavened bread.
00:40:53.574 --> 00:40:55.576
In the bible, leaven is synonymous of sin.
00:40:55.576 --> 00:41:00.014
Beware of the little leaven of the pharisees.
00:41:00.014 --> 00:41:02.149
A little leaven leavens the whole lump of dough.
00:41:02.149 --> 00:41:05.719
Okay, so this bread is sinless.
00:41:05.719 --> 00:41:09.089
It is pierced, it is striped,
00:41:09.089 --> 00:41:11.926
It is bruise, it is broken.
00:41:11.926 --> 00:41:15.296
It is isaiah 53, pierced for our transgressions,
00:41:15.296 --> 00:41:19.767
Crushed for our iniquities, and by his stripes we are healed.
00:41:19.767 --> 00:41:25.072
It is wrapped away just like
00:41:25.072 --> 00:41:27.841
Yeshua was wrapped away.
00:41:27.841 --> 00:41:30.878
And he was in the tomb wrapped in linen cloth,
00:41:30.878 --> 00:41:34.582
Just like we wrapped this piece of masa in a linen cloth.
00:41:34.582 --> 00:41:37.885
Here this evening, three pieces
00:41:37.885 --> 00:41:40.888
Of masa father, son and holy spirit.
00:41:40.888 --> 00:41:44.258
It is the middle piece of masa representing the son
00:41:44.258 --> 00:41:48.095
That was broken for you and for me.
00:41:48.095 --> 00:41:53.267
So we remember the messiah's body that was broken for us.
00:41:53.267 --> 00:41:57.972
And when we celebrate communion, it is the comb,
00:41:57.972 --> 00:42:01.976
And that is the reminder, the portrait,
00:42:01.976 --> 00:42:05.279
The picture of what was done for us in messiah yeshua.
00:42:05.279 --> 00:42:11.385
Amen.
00:42:11.385 --> 00:42:12.586
So i'm going to take a
00:42:13.053 --> 00:42:13.887
Piece of the aussie common.
00:42:13.887 --> 00:42:19.426
And then it's time to look here.
00:42:20.060 --> 00:42:23.364
At the third cup.
00:42:23.797 --> 00:42:26.634
The third cup is known as the cup of redemption.
00:42:26.634 --> 00:42:29.570
If you say a cup of redemption,
00:42:29.570 --> 00:42:31.972
Why is the third cup the cup of redemption?
00:42:31.972 --> 00:42:34.575
I want you to think about it for a moment.
00:42:34.575 --> 00:42:36.577
When god told the children
00:42:36.577 --> 00:42:37.911
Of israel, place
00:42:37.911 --> 00:42:38.979
The blood on the doorposts of their house,
00:42:38.979 --> 00:42:41.215
How many sprinklings were there?
00:42:41.215 --> 00:42:42.916
Three on the top
00:42:42.916 --> 00:42:44.785
And on the two sides of the pass of the doorposts in egypt.
00:42:44.785 --> 00:42:48.922
So the reason why there are three sprinklings of blood
00:42:48.922 --> 00:42:51.825
Is because it reminds us of the passover lamb.
00:42:51.825 --> 00:42:56.697
And that's
00:42:56.697 --> 00:42:57.865
Why the third cup is set aside as the cup of redemption.
00:42:57.865 --> 00:43:01.969
And i want you to think
00:43:02.469 --> 00:43:03.537
About three and redemption throughout the bible.
00:43:03.537 --> 00:43:07.374
Think about it for a moment.
00:43:07.374 --> 00:43:08.876
God raised up moses, aaron, and miriam
00:43:08.876 --> 00:43:12.112
To lead the children of israel out of egypt.
00:43:12.112 --> 00:43:16.116
The plagues are broken into three
00:43:16.116 --> 00:43:19.553
Distinct sections in jewish thought.
00:43:19.553 --> 00:43:22.656
Okay, the three sprinklings of the blood of the passover lamb.
00:43:22.656 --> 00:43:27.161
When you see what comes, and he does his first miracle,
00:43:27.161 --> 00:43:30.164
He does it on what day of the week?
00:43:30.164 --> 00:43:32.032
The third day of the week.
00:43:32.032 --> 00:43:34.902
He was crucified. at what hour?
00:43:34.902 --> 00:43:37.104
The third hour there were three crosses.
00:43:37.104 --> 00:43:41.809
There was darkness for three hours
00:43:41.809 --> 00:43:43.911
He raised from the dead.
00:43:43.911 --> 00:43:45.446
On the third day.
00:43:45.446 --> 00:43:47.181
Friends, these number three throughout the bible
00:43:47.181 --> 00:43:49.717
Is associated and connected to redemption
00:43:49.717 --> 00:43:54.888
And god has three, yet one.
00:43:55.489 --> 00:43:58.425
It points the passover
00:43:58.425 --> 00:44:01.028
To the blood of the greater passover lamb.
00:44:01.028 --> 00:44:03.664
Did you ever wonder why jesus had to die on the cross?
00:44:03.664 --> 00:44:08.936
Think about it for a moment.
00:44:08.936 --> 00:44:10.404
How does sin enter the world?
00:44:10.404 --> 00:44:12.539
We took from a tree in the garden of eden?
00:44:12.539 --> 00:44:15.776
So god put his son, the messiah, back on the tree
00:44:15.776 --> 00:44:20.447
For you and me to undo the sin of the first man
00:44:20.447 --> 00:44:25.252
And woman to make a restoration for what we couldn't do.
00:44:25.252 --> 00:44:30.657
Why are his hands pierced?
00:44:31.225 --> 00:44:33.127
Because it is our hands that stole from the tree.
00:44:33.127 --> 00:44:35.929
Why is his side pierced?
00:44:35.929 --> 00:44:37.865
Because it was the woman, eve.
00:44:37.865 --> 00:44:39.800
The one taken from this side that led adam into temptation.
00:44:39.800 --> 00:44:44.104
He's dying on the cross as a second adam, but
00:44:44.104 --> 00:44:47.374
Also making redemption for eve.
00:44:47.374 --> 00:44:50.677
Why were his feet pierced?
00:44:50.677 --> 00:44:52.312
What's the first messianic prophecy?
00:44:52.312 --> 00:44:54.648
The seed of a woman would crush the head of a serpent.
00:44:54.648 --> 00:44:58.285
The enemy is original gangster.
00:44:58.285 --> 00:45:00.120
He's like, you think you're going to crush my head?
00:45:00.120 --> 00:45:02.990
I'm going to nail
00:45:02.990 --> 00:45:03.657
Your feet to a tree
00:45:03.657 --> 00:45:05.225
And let's see how you're going to defeat me now.
00:45:05.225 --> 00:45:07.761
He was mocking the promises of god.
00:45:07.761 --> 00:45:10.430
He was trying to foil the plan of god.
00:45:10.430 --> 00:45:13.233
Didn't realize he wasn't spoiling it.
00:45:13.233 --> 00:45:15.469
He was actually fulfilling it.
00:45:15.469 --> 00:45:18.038
Listen, there will be people who mocked the promises.
00:45:18.038 --> 00:45:21.375
But god's got a plan.
00:45:21.875 --> 00:45:24.745
And on his head, he had a what?
00:45:24.745 --> 00:45:27.147
Crown of thorns.
00:45:27.147 --> 00:45:28.916
Why, a crown of thorns?
00:45:28.916 --> 00:45:30.884
What's the sign of the curse of creation?
00:45:30.884 --> 00:45:33.654
The ground will produce thorns and thistles.
00:45:33.654 --> 00:45:36.323
He's literally taking the curse of creation on his head
00:45:36.323 --> 00:45:40.494
To break it and to restore god's blessing.
00:45:40.494 --> 00:45:44.665
This is good news.
00:45:44.665 --> 00:45:46.533
Amen.
00:45:46.533 --> 00:45:50.270
Communion at the last supper.
00:45:50.904 --> 00:45:55.375
It was with the third cup,
00:45:55.943 --> 00:45:59.646
A remembrance of the passover lamb,
00:45:59.646 --> 00:46:02.583
Because he was saying, i am the greater passover lamb.
00:46:02.583 --> 00:46:07.187
It wasn't enough to slaughter the lamb.
00:46:07.187 --> 00:46:09.923
I mean, it took great faith to offer the sacrifice
00:46:09.923 --> 00:46:12.826
Because it was one of the deities of egypt.
00:46:12.826 --> 00:46:15.729
But the blood had to be applied by faith to the doorpost.
00:46:15.729 --> 00:46:18.532
Listen, jesus died,
00:46:18.532 --> 00:46:21.635
But each and every one of us has to make a personal decision
00:46:21.635 --> 00:46:26.673
By faith to receive his
00:46:26.673 --> 00:46:29.843
Death, burial, and resurrection.
00:46:29.843 --> 00:46:32.813
And when we apply that blood
00:46:32.813 --> 00:46:35.916
To our life by faith, just like they had to apply
00:46:35.916 --> 00:46:39.119
The blood to the doorposts of the houses of egypt,
00:46:39.119 --> 00:46:42.022
It was only when god saw the blood that he passes over.
00:46:42.022 --> 00:46:46.426
Listen, it's only because of the blood of jesus
00:46:46.426 --> 00:46:50.330
As the passover lamb that sin
00:46:50.330 --> 00:46:54.001
Is not held to our account, that we don't have to go
00:46:54.001 --> 00:46:57.604
Through judgment, that we go from death to life,
00:46:57.604 --> 00:47:00.841
But we have to receive it and apply it by faith.
00:47:00.841 --> 00:47:05.379
Amen.
00:47:05.379 --> 00:47:19.326
Amen, blessed are you, o lord, our god,
00:47:20.193 --> 00:47:23.430
King of the universe, who brings forth the fruit of the vine.
00:47:23.430 --> 00:47:27.100
Man, god is good, right?
00:47:27.634 --> 00:47:30.871
Give god a hand.
00:47:31.271 --> 00:47:32.105
Give the lord a hand.
00:47:32.105 --> 00:47:33.073
Come on. he's so good.
00:47:33.073 --> 00:47:36.209
So listen, at this point,
00:47:36.209 --> 00:47:38.345
It would be customary for the children to open the door
00:47:38.345 --> 00:47:41.748
And to see if elijah was standing outside there.
00:47:41.748 --> 00:47:46.687
Because we know, based upon the prophet malachi, it says this.
00:47:46.687 --> 00:47:50.724
Behold,
00:47:50.724 --> 00:47:51.925
I am going to send elijah, who cannot be elijah the prophet
00:47:51.925 --> 00:47:55.529
Before the coming of the great and terrible day of adonai.
00:47:55.529 --> 00:47:59.800
And he will turn the hearts of the fathers of the children
00:47:59.800 --> 00:48:03.136
And the children to the fathers.
00:48:03.136 --> 00:48:06.473
And then we come
00:48:06.873 --> 00:48:08.475
Near to the end of our passover seder.
00:48:09.242 --> 00:48:12.946
We come to the fourth cup,
00:48:12.946 --> 00:48:15.849
And this fourth cup is known
00:48:15.849 --> 00:48:18.518
As the cup of praise or the cup of acceptance.
00:48:18.518 --> 00:48:22.289
After we have his redemption
00:48:22.889 --> 00:48:25.859
And he accepts us as his sons and daughters,
00:48:25.859 --> 00:48:29.029
What else can we do but
00:48:29.029 --> 00:48:31.732
Praise him and thank him?
00:48:31.732 --> 00:48:35.002
Amen.
00:48:35.002 --> 00:48:36.737
The cup of praise.
00:48:36.737 --> 00:48:39.973
This is the cup
00:48:39.973 --> 00:48:42.275
Of the kingdom.
00:48:42.275 --> 00:48:44.444
But. so we're not going to drink the fourth cup here
00:48:44.444 --> 00:48:46.613
This evening.
00:48:46.613 --> 00:48:47.547
It's traditional to drink the fourth cup.
00:48:47.547 --> 00:48:51.618
But i'll tell you something.
00:48:52.219 --> 00:48:54.888
When i read the gospels.
00:48:54.888 --> 00:48:58.191
I believe it was over the fourth cup
00:48:58.959 --> 00:49:02.129
That yeshua said these words.
00:49:02.763 --> 00:49:05.932
I will not drink
00:49:05.932 --> 00:49:07.667
Of this fruit of the vine again
00:49:07.667 --> 00:49:11.304
Until i drink it with you in new in my father's kingdom.
00:49:11.304 --> 00:49:15.809
I believe that the next time we will drink this fourth cup,
00:49:15.809 --> 00:49:20.013
The cup of praise will be at the marriage supper of the lamb.
00:49:20.013 --> 00:49:25.318
When we're sitting at the table with god
00:49:25.318 --> 00:49:28.355
And we are praising him face
00:49:28.355 --> 00:49:31.458
To face, jew and gentile, every tribe,
00:49:31.458 --> 00:49:36.229
Every tongue, every nation united in messiah.
00:49:36.229 --> 00:49:41.435
The pain having passed, the joy having come.
00:49:41.435 --> 00:49:45.439
And what a time of praise that will be.
00:49:45.439 --> 00:49:47.908
Amen.
00:49:47.908 --> 00:49:48.708
So we leave the fourth cup standing here this evening,
00:49:49.743 --> 00:49:52.879
As i believe yeshua left the fourth cup standing.
00:49:52.879 --> 00:49:58.351
And so with that, it would become time to come
00:49:58.351 --> 00:50:01.321
To the end of the passover seder.
00:50:01.321 --> 00:50:05.025
You've made it all the way through
00:50:05.025 --> 00:50:06.993
It is the last step known as and near side.
00:50:06.993 --> 00:50:10.964
It is the conclusion of the passover seder.
00:50:10.964 --> 00:50:15.335
Listen,
00:50:15.335 --> 00:50:16.503
We are in the decade of the pay, the decade of the mouth.
00:50:16.503 --> 00:50:19.272
This is a time to come out of egypt
00:50:19.272 --> 00:50:22.909
And use the power of our pay
00:50:22.909 --> 00:50:25.178
To declare the promises of god. amen.
00:50:25.178 --> 00:50:29.015
And there is this song.
00:50:29.015 --> 00:50:30.217
It goes, there's this phrase that we say, say, listen,
00:50:30.217 --> 00:50:34.554
How about,
00:50:34.855 --> 00:50:36.656
Beirut, shall i?
00:50:36.656 --> 00:50:37.624
And next year
00:50:37.624 --> 00:50:40.660
In jerusalem, in jerusalem, it's the messianic expectation
00:50:40.660 --> 00:50:44.764
That next year we will eat the passover
00:50:44.764 --> 00:50:47.167
Face to face with the messiah in the messianic kingdom.
00:50:47.167 --> 00:50:51.671
Amen. yeah.
00:50:51.671 --> 00:50:53.173
Let's make some final declarations.
00:50:53.173 --> 00:50:55.509
Repeat after me.
00:50:55.509 --> 00:50:57.310
This is the promise of passover.
00:50:57.310 --> 00:51:01.481
I am coming out of egypt.
00:51:02.048 --> 00:51:05.552
I am forgiven and free.
00:51:05.552 --> 00:51:09.189
And messiah yeshua
00:51:09.623 --> 00:51:12.626
For the one whom the sun sets free
00:51:12.626 --> 00:51:16.329
Is free indeed.
00:51:16.696 --> 00:51:19.332
I am a royal child of the king,
00:51:19.332 --> 00:51:26.740
The spirit and the bride
00:51:27.274 --> 00:51:30.143
Say, come,
00:51:30.143 --> 00:51:32.445
Next year in jerusalem,
00:51:32.445 --> 00:51:36.016
Next year in the new jerusalem.
00:51:36.650 --> 00:51:41.888
Would you say this with me or clap along?
00:51:42.722 --> 00:52:22.495
One more thing to say.
00:52:22.963 --> 00:52:25.799
Repeat after me.
00:52:25.799 --> 00:52:27.434
May his kingdom come
00:52:27.434 --> 00:52:30.604
And his will be done
00:52:30.604 --> 00:52:33.406
On earth
00:52:33.673 --> 00:52:35.642
As it is in heaven.
00:52:35.642 --> 00:52:38.979
Bow now yeshua, come yeshua.
00:52:39.579 --> 00:52:42.782
May this be the year of your return.
00:52:42.782 --> 00:52:45.852
Come quickly, we pray.
00:52:45.852 --> 00:52:47.554
Bless israel, bless the nations,
00:52:47.554 --> 00:52:52.192
Unite us in the shalom of our messiah.
00:52:52.959 --> 00:52:56.129
Amen. amen.
00:52:56.463 --> 00:52:58.531
Thank you.
00:52:58.531 --> 00:56:04.217
Thank you.
00:56:04.517 --> 00:56:07.821
I'm not sure we could have foreseen
00:56:08.588 --> 00:56:12.192
The connection that these evenings,
00:56:12.926 --> 00:56:16.129
Jesus in the passover
00:56:16.129 --> 00:56:19.132
Was going to have with the tbn audience globally.
00:56:19.132 --> 00:56:23.303
But it feels like we found this amazing theme,
00:56:23.303 --> 00:56:27.407
This, kind of reactivation, this reoccurrence.
00:56:27.407 --> 00:56:30.577
We, you know, are seeing prayer,
00:56:30.577 --> 00:56:33.746
In places we didn't normally see prayer.
00:56:34.581 --> 00:56:37.116
We've seen cabinet meetings starting in prayer.
00:56:37.116 --> 00:56:40.220
We have, you know, one of our own tbn family now
00:56:40.220 --> 00:56:44.824
Presiding in israel as the,
00:56:44.824 --> 00:56:47.694
Ambassador in, in israel, mike huckabee.
00:56:47.694 --> 00:56:51.498
And so there's just, much to be grateful for.
00:56:51.498 --> 00:56:55.902
There's much to be,
00:56:55.902 --> 00:56:57.837
Experienced
00:56:57.837 --> 00:57:01.774
Now, to think that the disciples
00:57:01.774 --> 00:57:05.111
Were just about to experience the darkest day.
00:57:05.111 --> 00:57:08.515
Jesus took the greatest defeat in history
00:57:08.515 --> 00:57:11.317
And turned it into the greatest blessing.
00:57:11.317 --> 00:57:13.419
And that's what this represents for our lives that god can,
00:57:13.419 --> 00:57:17.156
If he can take his own death and turn it into life for us
00:57:17.156 --> 00:57:20.927
For eternity,
00:57:20.927 --> 00:57:22.328
It's proof that he knows how to turn things
00:57:22.328 --> 00:57:25.498
Around in that beautiful.
00:57:25.498 --> 00:57:26.866
It's just that's what this whole thing.
00:57:26.866 --> 00:57:29.302
And that's the cyclical thing we want.
00:57:29.302 --> 00:57:31.437
We want to go from death to life in dreams,
00:57:31.437 --> 00:57:34.774
In business opportunities, in all sorts of things
00:57:34.774 --> 00:57:38.711
That god's called you to do.
00:57:38.711 --> 00:57:39.646
Whatever god's called you to do.
00:57:39.646 --> 00:57:42.081
Let's breathe on that in prayer.
00:57:42.081 --> 00:57:44.517
Just pray for the arts. take us out.
00:57:44.517 --> 00:57:46.386
In in a beautiful declarative prayer,
00:57:47.186 --> 00:57:50.623
Would you just declare with me, lord, lord, i trust you.
00:57:50.623 --> 00:57:54.861
Trust.
00:57:54.861 --> 00:57:55.695
Even if the doors don't open doors.
00:57:55.695 --> 00:57:58.932
I believe that you are going to open a window for me.
00:57:58.932 --> 00:58:03.836
Windows of blessings,
00:58:04.337 --> 00:58:07.006
Windows of opportunities.
00:58:07.006 --> 00:58:10.310
Windows of breakthrough in my life.
00:58:10.310 --> 00:58:14.547
Now, in the name of yeshua,
00:58:14.547 --> 00:58:17.750
In the name of jesus, i declare lord,
00:58:17.750 --> 00:58:22.522
This is going to be a season of change.
00:58:22.522 --> 00:58:25.558
Things are going to be different.
00:58:25.558 --> 00:58:28.461
I'm not going to remain stuck.
00:58:28.461 --> 00:58:30.296
I am coming out of egypt.
00:58:30.296 --> 00:58:32.532
I am going from slavery to freedom, from restriction
00:58:32.532 --> 00:58:37.770
To expansiveness, through the power
00:58:37.770 --> 00:58:41.474
Of the blood of your son yeshua jesus.
00:58:41.474 --> 00:58:45.945
I thank you, god, for what it is that you're going to do
00:58:45.945 --> 00:58:50.450
And believe that you are going to act powerfully for my sake.
00:58:50.450 --> 00:58:55.555
We ask all these things in the matchless name
00:58:55.555 --> 00:58:59.092
Of yeshua, jesus, our messiah.
00:58:59.092 --> 00:59:02.095
I will possess my promise in you, jesus.
00:59:02.095 --> 00:59:07.266
Amen. oh man.
00:59:07.266 --> 00:59:09.569
Wow. beautiful.
00:59:09.569 --> 00:59:09.569
