00:00:14.041 --> 00:00:14.809
Pastor john hagee: the bible says,
00:00:14.875 --> 00:00:15.376
Says, "the joy of the lord
00:00:15.443 --> 00:00:15.943
"the joy of the lord is your strength."
00:00:16.010 --> 00:00:16.777
Is your strength." say that with me.
00:00:16.844 --> 00:00:17.845
Say that with me. "the joy of the lord
00:00:17.912 --> 00:00:18.979
"the joy of the lord is your strength."
00:00:19.046 --> 00:00:19.814
Is your strength." that's nehemiah 8:10.
00:00:19.880 --> 00:00:21.749
That's nehemiah 8:10. "strength" in that setting
00:00:21.816 --> 00:00:24.151
"strength" in that setting means life force.
00:00:24.218 --> 00:00:26.053
Means life force. so that means, literally,
00:00:26.120 --> 00:00:27.455
So that means, literally, without joy,
00:00:27.521 --> 00:00:28.823
Without joy, you are physically,
00:00:28.889 --> 00:00:30.424
You are physically, and emotionally,
00:00:30.491 --> 00:00:31.826
And emotionally, and spiritually weak.
00:00:31.892 --> 00:00:34.462
And spiritually weak. if you have no joy,
00:00:34.528 --> 00:00:36.230
If you have no joy, you are not qualified
00:00:36.297 --> 00:00:37.798
You are not qualified for leadership on any level,
00:00:37.865 --> 00:00:40.434
For leadership on any level, not to your family,
00:00:40.501 --> 00:00:42.203
Not to your family, not to your business,
00:00:42.269 --> 00:00:43.771
Not to your business, not even to your own life.
00:00:43.838 --> 00:00:46.107
Not even to your own life. medical science is now saying
00:00:46.173 --> 00:00:47.942
Medical science is now saying that laughter releases
00:00:48.008 --> 00:00:49.443
That laughter releases an enzyme in the brain
00:00:49.510 --> 00:00:51.378
An enzyme in the brain that fights sickness
00:00:51.445 --> 00:00:52.580
That fights sickness and disease.
00:00:52.646 --> 00:00:54.014
And disease. god's medicine bottle has
00:00:54.081 --> 00:00:55.616
God's medicine bottle has on the side of it,
00:00:55.683 --> 00:00:57.184
On the side of it, "joy, take it three times a day
00:00:57.251 --> 00:00:59.854
"joy, take it three times a day for a beautiful life."
00:00:59.920 --> 00:01:01.655
For a beautiful life." it's just that easy.
00:01:01.722 --> 00:01:03.424
It's just that easy. laughter heals the soul.
00:01:03.491 --> 00:01:05.593
Laughter heals the soul. laughter heals the mind.
00:01:05.659 --> 00:01:07.661
Laughter heals the mind. laughter heals the body.
00:01:07.728 --> 00:01:09.663
Laughter heals the body. laughter heals relationships.
00:01:09.730 --> 00:01:12.133
Laughter heals relationships. some of you should try it,
00:01:12.199 --> 00:01:13.501
Some of you should try it, because i can tell from here,
00:01:13.567 --> 00:01:15.369
Because i can tell from here, it's not a common denominator
00:01:15.436 --> 00:01:16.871
It's not a common denominator in your life.
00:01:16.937 --> 00:01:18.239
In your life. (laughter)
00:01:18.305 --> 00:01:19.006
(laughter) "the joy of the lord
00:01:19.073 --> 00:01:20.141
"the joy of the lord is your strength."
00:01:20.207 --> 00:01:20.941
Is your strength." say it again.
00:01:21.008 --> 00:01:21.976
Say it again. "the joy of the lord
00:01:22.042 --> 00:01:23.577
"the joy of the lord is your strength."
00:01:23.644 --> 00:01:24.512
Is your strength." question: do you have
00:01:24.578 --> 00:01:25.913
Question: do you have a hard time laughing?
00:01:25.980 --> 00:01:28.983
A hard time laughing? yes, some of you do.
00:01:29.049 --> 00:01:30.951
Yes, some of you do. (laughter)
00:01:31.018 --> 00:01:31.685
(laughter) there's a powerful element
00:01:31.752 --> 00:01:33.254
There's a powerful element of joy in the bible
00:01:33.320 --> 00:01:35.422
Of joy in the bible seldom talked about
00:01:35.489 --> 00:01:37.291
Seldom talked about in the churches of america,
00:01:37.358 --> 00:01:39.326
In the churches of america, and that is a supernatural
00:01:39.393 --> 00:01:42.096
And that is a supernatural shout of joy.
00:01:42.163 --> 00:01:44.198
Shout of joy. read with me psalm 132:7
00:01:44.265 --> 00:01:47.034
Read with me psalm 132:7 and following.
00:01:47.101 --> 00:01:47.668
And following. ready?
00:01:47.735 --> 00:01:48.702
Ready? "let us go into
00:01:48.769 --> 00:01:49.503
"let us go into his tabernacle."
00:01:49.570 --> 00:01:50.571
His tabernacle." this is david writing.
00:01:50.638 --> 00:01:52.072
This is david writing. "let us worship
00:01:52.139 --> 00:01:52.907
"let us worship at his footstool.
00:01:52.973 --> 00:01:54.441
At his footstool. arise, o lord,
00:01:54.508 --> 00:01:55.876
Arise, o lord, to your resting place,
00:01:55.943 --> 00:01:57.545
To your resting place, you and the ark
00:01:57.611 --> 00:01:58.479
You and the ark of your strength.
00:01:58.546 --> 00:01:59.713
Of your strength. let your priests be clothed
00:01:59.780 --> 00:02:01.448
Let your priests be clothed with righteousness.
00:02:01.515 --> 00:02:02.950
With righteousness. and let your saints
00:02:03.017 --> 00:02:04.485
And let your saints shout for joy."
00:02:04.552 --> 00:02:06.854
Shout for joy." "let your saints
00:02:06.921 --> 00:02:08.589
"let your saints shout for joy."
00:02:08.656 --> 00:02:11.292
Shout for joy." let's pray.
00:02:11.358 --> 00:02:11.825
Let's pray. father, thank you
00:02:11.892 --> 00:02:12.626
Father, thank you for your word.

For your word. thank you for the right to be

Joyful in all that we do with, through,

And for the lord jesus christ. help america,
00:02:24.238 --> 00:02:25.773
Help america, and help the church,

And help the church, and help christians to
00:02:27.708 --> 00:02:29.243
And help christians to rediscover the joy of the lord
00:02:29.310 --> 00:02:31.712
Rediscover the joy of the lord that maketh rich
00:02:31.779 --> 00:02:32.646
That maketh rich and addeth no sorrow.
00:02:32.713 --> 00:02:34.281
And addeth no sorrow. and all of god's children said,
00:02:34.348 --> 00:02:35.649
And all of god's children said, praise the lord.
00:02:35.716 --> 00:02:36.684
Praise the lord. (praise the lord!)
00:02:36.750 --> 00:02:37.451
(praise the lord!) you may be seated.
00:02:37.518 --> 00:02:39.019
You may be seated. numbers 23:21 begins by telling
00:02:39.086 --> 00:02:44.024
Numbers 23:21 begins by telling a story of balaam,
00:02:44.091 --> 00:02:45.392
A story of balaam, the corrupt prophet,
00:02:45.459 --> 00:02:47.261
The corrupt prophet, who was hired by balak to
00:02:47.328 --> 00:02:49.597
Who was hired by balak to pronounce a curse upon israel.
00:02:49.663 --> 00:02:52.066
Pronounce a curse upon israel. when balaam went to pronounce
00:02:52.132 --> 00:02:53.867
When balaam went to pronounce the curse,
00:02:53.934 --> 00:02:55.069
The curse, he demanded a fee.
00:02:55.135 --> 00:02:57.071
He demanded a fee. but he could not pronounce
00:02:57.137 --> 00:02:59.173
But he could not pronounce the curse on israel,
00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:00.741
The curse on israel, because he said,
00:03:00.808 --> 00:03:02.042
Because he said, "the shout of a king
00:03:02.109 --> 00:03:04.278
"the shout of a king is among them."
00:03:04.345 --> 00:03:05.946
Is among them." when this corrupt prophet went
00:03:06.013 --> 00:03:07.948
When this corrupt prophet went to say something that would
00:03:08.015 --> 00:03:10.284
To say something that would curse their prosperity,
00:03:10.351 --> 00:03:14.088
Curse their prosperity, he could not speak it,
00:03:14.154 --> 00:03:16.357
He could not speak it, because the shout of a king
00:03:16.423 --> 00:03:18.959
Because the shout of a king (that would be the lord)
00:03:19.026 --> 00:03:20.361
(that would be the lord) was among them.
00:03:20.427 --> 00:03:21.662
Was among them. how is christ coming
00:03:21.729 --> 00:03:22.730
How is christ coming for his church?
00:03:22.796 --> 00:03:24.164
For his church? the bible says he's coming
00:03:24.231 --> 00:03:25.499
The bible says he's coming with a mighty shout.
00:03:25.566 --> 00:03:26.767
With a mighty shout. why is he shouting?
00:03:26.834 --> 00:03:28.068
Why is he shouting? it's victory over death,
00:03:28.135 --> 00:03:29.336
It's victory over death, hell, and the grave.
00:03:29.403 --> 00:03:30.638
Hell, and the grave. god is not going to leave
00:03:30.704 --> 00:03:32.339
God is not going to leave one molecule of your body
00:03:32.406 --> 00:03:34.575
One molecule of your body in the ground,
00:03:34.642 --> 00:03:35.876
In the ground, because to do so,
00:03:35.943 --> 00:03:37.177
Because to do so, he would not be totally
00:03:37.244 --> 00:03:38.712
He would not be totally the victor.
00:03:38.779 --> 00:03:39.680
The victor. but he is coming and he
00:03:39.747 --> 00:03:41.248
But he is coming and he is taking you back with him,
00:03:41.315 --> 00:03:43.617
Is taking you back with him, transformed
00:03:43.684 --> 00:03:44.485
Transformed in your glorious self,
00:03:44.551 --> 00:03:46.420
In your glorious self, with a thunderous shout
00:03:46.487 --> 00:03:47.788
With a thunderous shout of praise over death, hell,
00:03:47.855 --> 00:03:49.757
Of praise over death, hell, and the grave!
00:03:49.823 --> 00:03:50.958
And the grave! (applause)
00:03:51.025 --> 00:03:53.394
(applause) joshua 6:20,
00:03:53.460 --> 00:03:54.962
Joshua 6:20, the people shouted with
00:03:55.029 --> 00:03:56.030
The people shouted with a great shout and the walls
00:03:56.096 --> 00:03:57.298
A great shout and the walls came tumbling down.
00:03:57.364 --> 00:03:59.033
Came tumbling down. here's the story of joshua
00:03:59.099 --> 00:04:00.334
Here's the story of joshua and the children of israel
00:04:00.401 --> 00:04:02.069
And the children of israel in a supernatural warfare
00:04:02.136 --> 00:04:04.638
In a supernatural warfare where they defeated,
00:04:04.705 --> 00:04:05.706
Where they defeated, with god's help, jericho.
00:04:05.773 --> 00:04:07.741
With god's help, jericho. jericho represents
00:04:07.808 --> 00:04:08.776
Jericho represents mission impossible.
00:04:08.842 --> 00:04:10.444
Mission impossible. jericho represents
00:04:10.511 --> 00:04:11.845
Jericho represents the undefeatable foe.
00:04:11.912 --> 00:04:13.814
The undefeatable foe. jericho had walls
00:04:13.881 --> 00:04:15.316
Jericho had walls that were invincible.
00:04:15.382 --> 00:04:17.318
That were invincible. jericho was also a barrier
00:04:17.384 --> 00:04:20.421
Jericho was also a barrier to the promised land that god
00:04:20.487 --> 00:04:22.489
To the promised land that god had promised the jewish people.
00:04:22.556 --> 00:04:24.558
Had promised the jewish people. they couldn't go around it.
00:04:24.625 --> 00:04:26.060
They couldn't go around it. they couldn't ignore it.
00:04:26.126 --> 00:04:27.628
They couldn't ignore it. they couldn't pretend
00:04:27.695 --> 00:04:28.595
They couldn't pretend the problem was not there.
00:04:28.662 --> 00:04:30.297
The problem was not there. they had to face it.
00:04:30.364 --> 00:04:32.066
They had to face it. israel walked around
00:04:32.132 --> 00:04:33.767
Israel walked around those walls for six days
00:04:33.834 --> 00:04:35.469
Those walls for six days at the command of god.
00:04:35.536 --> 00:04:37.271
At the command of god. and on the seventh day,
00:04:37.338 --> 00:04:38.539
And on the seventh day, the priest blew the shofar,
00:04:38.605 --> 00:04:41.141
The priest blew the shofar, and the people gave
00:04:41.208 --> 00:04:42.209
And the people gave a great shout.
00:04:42.276 --> 00:04:43.744
A great shout. and when they did,
00:04:43.811 --> 00:04:45.245
And when they did, the invisible hand of god
00:04:45.312 --> 00:04:47.214
The invisible hand of god shoved those massive walls
00:04:47.281 --> 00:04:49.116
Shoved those massive walls down flat.
00:04:49.183 --> 00:04:50.417
Down flat. and an enemy that couldn't
00:04:50.484 --> 00:04:51.885
And an enemy that couldn't be defeated
00:04:51.952 --> 00:04:52.853
Be defeated was instantly defeated.
00:04:52.920 --> 00:04:54.755
Was instantly defeated. it was a supernatural victory
00:04:54.822 --> 00:04:57.124
It was a supernatural victory won by the thunderous shout
00:04:57.191 --> 00:05:00.160
Won by the thunderous shout of righteous people.
00:05:00.227 --> 00:05:01.862
Of righteous people. many of you have walked around
00:05:01.929 --> 00:05:03.430
Many of you have walked around a personal jericho
00:05:03.497 --> 00:05:05.032
A personal jericho long enough.
00:05:05.099 --> 00:05:06.033
Long enough. you have allowed some jericho
00:05:06.100 --> 00:05:07.901
You have allowed some jericho to block you from
00:05:07.968 --> 00:05:09.203
To block you from your spiritual inheritance.
00:05:09.269 --> 00:05:10.938
Your spiritual inheritance. you have allowed --
00:05:11.004 --> 00:05:11.905
You have allowed -- prevented you from reaching
00:05:11.972 --> 00:05:13.374
Prevented you from reaching the total victory in your life.
00:05:13.440 --> 00:05:15.876
The total victory in your life. how many of you have a jericho
00:05:15.943 --> 00:05:18.145
How many of you have a jericho that's in your life right now,
00:05:18.212 --> 00:05:20.647
That's in your life right now, an attack by the enemy
00:05:20.714 --> 00:05:22.583
An attack by the enemy that requires absolute victory,
00:05:22.649 --> 00:05:25.185
That requires absolute victory, a problem that you must
00:05:25.252 --> 00:05:26.653
A problem that you must conquer,
00:05:26.720 --> 00:05:27.554
Conquer, a problem that you can't ignore
00:05:27.621 --> 00:05:30.257
A problem that you can't ignore anymore?
00:05:30.324 --> 00:05:30.858
Anymore? how many of you would have that
00:05:30.924 --> 00:05:32.459
How many of you would have that in your life?
00:05:32.526 --> 00:05:33.594
In your life? here's what we're going to do.
00:05:33.660 --> 00:05:34.561
Here's what we're going to do. if joshua did it,
00:05:34.628 --> 00:05:35.963
If joshua did it, if david commanded to do it,
00:05:36.029 --> 00:05:38.065
If david commanded to do it, if jesus is going to do it
00:05:38.132 --> 00:05:39.833
If jesus is going to do it when he comes in the clouds

00:17:31.111 --> 00:17:33.046
Of congratulating a person whose face is wet with tears?
00:17:33.113 --> 00:17:35.782
Whose face is wet with tears? jesus is not saying,
00:17:35.849 --> 00:17:37.584
Jesus is not saying, "blessed are the cry babies;
00:17:37.650 --> 00:17:38.685
"blessed are the cry babies; for they shall get their way."
00:17:38.751 --> 00:17:40.820
For they shall get their way." (laughter)
00:17:40.887 --> 00:17:41.788
(laughter) jesus is not saying,
00:17:41.855 --> 00:17:43.289
Jesus is not saying, "blessed are those who are
00:17:43.356 --> 00:17:44.324
"blessed are those who are whining their way
00:17:44.390 --> 00:17:45.558
Whining their way to maximum attention."
00:17:45.625 --> 00:17:48.561
To maximum attention." he's saying,
00:17:48.628 --> 00:17:49.095
He's saying, blessed are those
00:17:49.162 --> 00:17:50.296
Blessed are those who mourn over sin,
00:17:50.363 --> 00:17:52.532
Who mourn over sin, because now they can be
00:17:52.599 --> 00:17:53.500
Because now they can be comforted.
00:17:53.566 --> 00:17:54.834
Comforted. sin and joy are not companions.
00:17:54.901 --> 00:17:58.371
Sin and joy are not companions. sin is a cancer.
00:17:58.438 --> 00:18:00.340
Sin is a cancer. you either get the cancer
00:18:00.406 --> 00:18:01.741
You either get the cancer or the cancer gets you.
00:18:01.808 --> 00:18:04.677
Or the cancer gets you. and here is a concern of mine
00:18:04.744 --> 00:18:06.412
And here is a concern of mine about the american church
00:18:06.479 --> 00:18:07.747
About the american church right now in this very hot tub
00:18:07.814 --> 00:18:12.118
Right now in this very hot tub christianity that we're
00:18:12.185 --> 00:18:13.753
Christianity that we're teaching and preaching.
00:18:13.820 --> 00:18:16.489
Teaching and preaching. there is not the willingness
00:18:16.556 --> 00:18:19.192
There is not the willingness to confront sin.
00:18:19.259 --> 00:18:22.562
To confront sin. the bible says,
00:18:22.629 --> 00:18:23.429
The bible says, "whoever confesses and forsakes
00:18:23.496 --> 00:18:25.431
"whoever confesses and forsakes his sin shall have mercy
00:18:25.498 --> 00:18:27.233
His sin shall have mercy with the lord."
00:18:27.300 --> 00:18:28.801
With the lord." yes, there is a god of grace.
00:18:28.868 --> 00:18:30.770
Yes, there is a god of grace. grace gives you the opportunity
00:18:30.837 --> 00:18:32.805
Grace gives you the opportunity to sin.
00:18:32.872 --> 00:18:33.540
To sin. but it is not a license to sin
00:18:33.606 --> 00:18:35.708
But it is not a license to sin over, and over,
00:18:35.775 --> 00:18:37.310
Over, and over, and over ,and over.
00:18:37.377 --> 00:18:39.512
And over ,and over. that is a pattern.
00:18:39.579 --> 00:18:40.647
That is a pattern. god expects you to grow up
00:18:40.713 --> 00:18:42.682
God expects you to grow up and to be a mature,
00:18:42.749 --> 00:18:44.250
And to be a mature, bible-reading,
00:18:44.317 --> 00:18:45.318
Bible-reading, christ-honoring,
00:18:45.385 --> 00:18:46.653
Christ-honoring, christ-adoring
00:18:46.719 --> 00:18:47.854
Christ-adoring child of god.
00:18:47.921 --> 00:18:49.189
Child of god. that's what god wants.
00:18:49.255 --> 00:18:50.757
That's what god wants. (applause)
00:18:50.823 --> 00:18:54.861
(applause) remember that jesus is speaking
00:18:54.928 --> 00:18:56.329
Remember that jesus is speaking to jewish people
00:18:56.396 --> 00:18:57.130
To jewish people in roman captivity.
00:18:57.197 --> 00:18:58.531
In roman captivity. they are looking for a messiah
00:18:58.598 --> 00:19:00.066
They are looking for a messiah that can knock off the romans.
00:19:00.133 --> 00:19:02.835
That can knock off the romans. and jesus says,
00:19:02.902 --> 00:19:03.703
And jesus says, "blessed are the meek."
00:19:03.770 --> 00:19:04.704
"blessed are the meek." and the jewish people said
00:19:04.771 --> 00:19:05.672
And the jewish people said this guy is no messiah.
00:19:05.738 --> 00:19:07.840
This guy is no messiah. you cannot conquer
00:19:07.907 --> 00:19:08.841
You cannot conquer the brutality of rome
00:19:08.908 --> 00:19:10.243
The brutality of rome with meekness.
00:19:10.310 --> 00:19:12.078
With meekness. but let me tell you something.
00:19:12.145 --> 00:19:13.313
But let me tell you something. in the bible,
00:19:13.379 --> 00:19:13.880
In the bible, meekness is not weakness.
00:19:13.947 --> 00:19:16.749
Meekness is not weakness. meekness is not weakness.
00:19:16.816 --> 00:19:19.285
Meekness is not weakness. the bible called moses the
00:19:19.352 --> 00:19:20.687
The bible called moses the meekest man in all the earth.
00:19:20.753 --> 00:19:23.189
Meekest man in all the earth. and he changed the
00:19:23.256 --> 00:19:24.557
And he changed the course of human history
00:19:24.624 --> 00:19:26.226
Course of human history by allowing god to use his life
00:19:26.292 --> 00:19:28.394
By allowing god to use his life for 40 years.
00:19:28.461 --> 00:19:29.929
For 40 years. jesus walked into a temple
00:19:29.996 --> 00:19:31.864
Jesus walked into a temple with a twisted whip of cords
00:19:31.931 --> 00:19:33.766
With a twisted whip of cords in his hand,
00:19:33.833 --> 00:19:34.901
In his hand, and he drove out
00:19:34.968 --> 00:19:35.702
And he drove out the money changers.
00:19:35.768 --> 00:19:36.869
The money changers. these guys were
00:19:36.936 --> 00:19:38.071
These guys were the wall street of israel.
00:19:38.137 --> 00:19:40.206
The wall street of israel. he turned over the bingo tables
00:19:40.273 --> 00:19:42.175
He turned over the bingo tables and called the vice squad.
00:19:42.242 --> 00:19:43.876
And called the vice squad. he said,
00:19:43.943 --> 00:19:44.310
He said, "my house shall be called
00:19:44.377 --> 00:19:45.745
"my house shall be called a house of prayer.
00:19:45.812 --> 00:19:47.046
A house of prayer. but you have made it
00:19:47.113 --> 00:19:48.014
But you have made it a den of thieves."
00:19:48.081 --> 00:19:49.549
A den of thieves." jesus was meek
00:19:49.616 --> 00:19:50.950
Jesus was meek but he wasn't weak.
00:19:51.017 --> 00:19:52.418
But he wasn't weak. these are the jewish people
00:19:52.485 --> 00:19:53.653
These are the jewish people who hated jesus,
00:19:53.720 --> 00:19:55.088
Who hated jesus, the pharisees
00:19:55.154 --> 00:19:56.456
The pharisees and these money changers.
00:19:56.522 --> 00:19:58.157
And these money changers. five hundred roman soldiers
00:19:58.224 --> 00:19:59.759
Five hundred roman soldiers came to arrest him
00:19:59.826 --> 00:20:01.227
Came to arrest him from the antonian fortress
00:20:01.294 --> 00:20:03.496
From the antonian fortress in the garden of gethsemane,
00:20:03.563 --> 00:20:05.031
In the garden of gethsemane, saying,
00:20:05.098 --> 00:20:05.732
Saying, "we seek jesus of nazareth."
00:20:05.798 --> 00:20:09.135
"we seek jesus of nazareth." and the carpenter's son said,
00:20:09.202 --> 00:20:10.436
And the carpenter's son said, "i am he."
00:20:10.503 --> 00:20:11.771
"i am he." and those soldiers,
00:20:11.838 --> 00:20:12.939
And those soldiers, with all of their shields
00:20:13.006 --> 00:20:14.040
With all of their shields and swords,
00:20:14.107 --> 00:20:15.174
And swords, fell flat on the ground.
00:20:15.241 --> 00:20:17.710
Fell flat on the ground. he was meek
00:20:17.777 --> 00:20:19.212
He was meek but he wasn't weak.
00:20:19.279 --> 00:20:21.180
But he wasn't weak. meekness is not weakness.
00:20:21.247 --> 00:20:23.216
Meekness is not weakness. you want to discover real joy?
00:20:23.283 --> 00:20:25.251
You want to discover real joy? surrender to the will of god.
00:20:25.318 --> 00:20:27.387
Surrender to the will of god. god will anoint you with power
00:20:27.453 --> 00:20:29.689
God will anoint you with power that will scatter your enemies.
00:20:29.756 --> 00:20:31.958
That will scatter your enemies. it's about your rights.
00:20:32.025 --> 00:20:33.393
It's about your rights. what about your rights?
00:20:33.459 --> 00:20:35.194
What about your rights? you don't have any rights.
00:20:35.261 --> 00:20:37.163
You don't have any rights. you're bought with a price.
00:20:37.230 --> 00:20:39.232
You're bought with a price. god has no super stars.
00:20:39.299 --> 00:20:40.967
God has no super stars. we're all servants.
00:20:41.034 --> 00:20:42.302
We're all servants. i am a servant of jesus christ.
00:20:42.368 --> 00:20:45.171
I am a servant of jesus christ. you're not your own.
00:20:45.238 --> 00:20:46.372
You're not your own. you're bought with a price.
00:20:46.439 --> 00:20:48.074
You're bought with a price. well what about my will?
00:20:48.141 --> 00:20:49.542
Well what about my will? paul said,
00:20:49.609 --> 00:20:50.443
Paul said, be careful about will worship.
00:20:50.510 --> 00:20:52.512
Be careful about will worship. crucify it.
00:20:52.578 --> 00:20:53.813
Crucify it. "not my will,
00:20:53.880 --> 00:20:54.781
"not my will, but thine be done"
00:20:54.847 --> 00:20:55.948
But thine be done" is in the lord's prayer.
00:20:56.015 --> 00:20:57.850
Is in the lord's prayer. what about my possessions?
00:20:57.917 --> 00:20:59.352
What about my possessions? they all belong to god.
00:20:59.419 --> 00:21:01.654
They all belong to god. you know how much you're going
00:21:01.721 --> 00:21:02.622
You know how much you're going to leave when you die?
00:21:02.689 --> 00:21:04.090
To leave when you die? all of it.
00:21:04.157 --> 00:21:06.392
All of it. it's just going to be you
00:21:06.459 --> 00:21:07.427
It's just going to be you with a suit that's cut out
00:21:07.493 --> 00:21:08.528
With a suit that's cut out in the back.
00:21:08.594 --> 00:21:09.762
In the back. (laughter)
00:21:09.829 --> 00:21:16.369
(laughter) there are two great barriers
00:21:16.436 --> 00:21:17.470
There are two great barriers to joy that someone created
00:21:17.537 --> 00:21:19.972
To joy that someone created my problem.
00:21:20.039 --> 00:21:22.175
My problem. you embrace that and you're
00:21:22.241 --> 00:21:23.576
You embrace that and you're never going to be well,
00:21:23.643 --> 00:21:25.545
Never going to be well, not emotionally
00:21:25.611 --> 00:21:26.846
Not emotionally and not spiritually.
00:21:26.913 --> 00:21:28.781
And not spiritually. whatever you are today cannot
00:21:28.848 --> 00:21:30.216
Whatever you are today cannot be blamed on someone else,
00:21:30.283 --> 00:21:32.585
Be blamed on someone else, not your father,
00:21:32.652 --> 00:21:33.653
Not your father, not your mother,
00:21:33.720 --> 00:21:34.520
Not your mother, not your husband,
00:21:34.587 --> 00:21:35.221
Not your husband, not your wife,
00:21:35.288 --> 00:21:36.756
Not your wife, not god,
00:21:36.823 --> 00:21:37.490
Not god, not your mother-in-law,
00:21:37.557 --> 00:21:38.758
Not your mother-in-law, nobody.
00:21:38.825 --> 00:21:40.026
Nobody. when you look in the mirror,
00:21:40.093 --> 00:21:41.194
When you look in the mirror, you're looking at your problem
00:21:41.260 --> 00:21:43.429
You're looking at your problem or you're looking
00:21:43.496 --> 00:21:44.063
Or you're looking at your asset.
00:21:44.130 --> 00:21:45.565
At your asset. it's just depending on how you
00:21:45.631 --> 00:21:47.100
It's just depending on how you determine to live your life.
00:21:47.166 --> 00:21:49.736
Determine to live your life. no one can take the joy
00:21:49.802 --> 00:21:51.037
No one can take the joy that god has given you
00:21:51.104 --> 00:21:52.438
That god has given you unless you hand it to them
00:21:52.505 --> 00:21:53.673
Unless you hand it to them on a silver platter.
00:21:53.740 --> 00:21:55.041
On a silver platter. john 16:22, "your joy,
00:21:55.108 --> 00:21:58.277
John 16:22, "your joy, no man can take from you."
00:21:58.344 --> 00:22:00.179
No man can take from you." say that with me.
00:22:00.246 --> 00:22:01.114
Say that with me. "your joy,
00:22:01.180 --> 00:22:02.348
"your joy, no man can take from you."
00:22:02.415 --> 00:22:04.317
No man can take from you." young people often say,
00:22:04.384 --> 00:22:05.418
Young people often say, "well, my parents
00:22:05.485 --> 00:22:06.219
"well, my parents didn't love me."
00:22:06.285 --> 00:22:07.553
Didn't love me." that's good freshman
00:22:07.620 --> 00:22:08.421
That's good freshman psychology,
00:22:08.488 --> 00:22:09.255
Psychology, but it's bad theology.
00:22:09.322 --> 00:22:10.857
But it's bad theology. why?
00:22:10.923 --> 00:22:11.624
Why? the bible says when we come
00:22:11.691 --> 00:22:12.892
The bible says when we come to christ,
00:22:12.959 --> 00:22:13.559
To christ, we become new creatures.
00:22:13.626 --> 00:22:15.094
We become new creatures. "all things become new."
00:22:15.161 --> 00:22:16.662
"all things become new." say that with me.
00:22:16.729 --> 00:22:17.530
Say that with me. "all things become new."
00:22:17.597 --> 00:22:20.233
"all things become new." when all things become new,
00:22:20.299 --> 00:22:21.701
When all things become new, you have a new heart,
00:22:21.768 --> 00:22:22.969
You have a new heart, you have a new attitude,
00:22:23.035 --> 00:22:24.237
You have a new attitude, you have new speech,
00:22:24.303 --> 00:22:25.471
You have new speech, you have new friends.
00:22:25.538 --> 00:22:26.906
You have new friends. some of you will have
00:22:26.973 --> 00:22:27.807
Some of you will have new vocabularies,
00:22:27.874 --> 00:22:29.308
New vocabularies, because you'll have to learn
00:22:29.375 --> 00:22:30.309
Because you'll have to learn to speak the english language
00:22:30.376 --> 00:22:31.711
To speak the english language without cursing.
00:22:31.778 --> 00:22:33.012
Without cursing. you have new habits.
00:22:33.079 --> 00:22:34.213
You have new habits. you have new goals.
00:22:34.280 --> 00:22:35.181
You have new goals. you have a new life.
00:22:35.248 --> 00:22:36.449
You have a new life. you have a new name
00:22:36.516 --> 00:22:37.583
You have a new name written down in heaven.
00:22:37.650 --> 00:22:38.951
Written down in heaven. you're going to live
00:22:39.018 --> 00:22:39.819
You're going to live in the new jerusalem.
00:22:39.886 --> 00:22:41.320
In the new jerusalem. you'll have eternal life.
00:22:41.387 --> 00:22:42.622
You'll have eternal life. that's something to shout
00:22:42.688 --> 00:22:43.656
That's something to shout about.
