Not that it was built, but the tragedy of this wall

[amen.] when you're in the pit,

When you're in the pit, remember this;
00:11:58.311 --> 00:11:59.513
Remember this; those who created the pain
00:11:59.579 --> 00:12:00.947
Those who created the pain of the present do not control
00:12:01.014 --> 00:12:03.216
Of the present do not control the peace of god
00:12:03.283 --> 00:12:04.084
The peace of god for your future.
00:12:04.151 --> 00:12:06.186

Does not control the pleasure and joy of your future.
00:12:10.323 --> 00:12:12.726
And joy of your future. crawl out of that pit.
00:12:12.793 --> 00:12:14.661

Put your hand in the hand of god and move onto your future.
00:12:15.829 --> 00:12:18.665
God and move onto your future. the bible says,
00:12:18.732 --> 00:12:19.399
The bible says, "whatsoever things are good,
00:12:19.466 --> 00:12:21.001
"whatsoever things are good, whatsoever things are lovely,
00:12:21.067 --> 00:12:22.369
Whatsoever things are lovely, pure, of good report,
00:12:22.435 --> 00:12:24.237
Pure, of good report, think on these things."
00:12:24.304 --> 00:12:27.073
Think on these things." your business crisis

It doesn't not control your prosperity.
00:12:31.211 --> 00:12:33.013
Your prosperity. the betrayal of your family
00:12:33.079 --> 00:12:34.514
The betrayal of your family is pain.
00:12:34.581 --> 00:12:35.615
Is pain. it does not mean there will
00:12:35.682 --> 00:12:36.750
It does not mean there will not be a day of sweet reunion
00:12:36.817 --> 00:12:38.919
Not be a day of sweet reunion like joseph and his brothers.
00:12:38.985 --> 00:12:40.954
Like joseph and his brothers. god can bring you,
00:12:41.021 --> 00:12:42.222
God can bring you, your brothers,

There will be tears of forgiveness and there will be
00:12:49.863 --> 00:12:51.565
Forgiveness and there will be rejoicing,
00:12:51.631 --> 00:12:52.699
Rejoicing, because only god can do that.
00:12:52.766 --> 00:12:55.068
Because only god can do that. [amen.]
00:12:55.135 --> 00:12:55.535
[amen.] only god can do that.
00:12:55.602 --> 00:12:57.571
Only god can do that. (applause)
00:12:57.637 --> 00:12:59.806
(applause) when you're in the pit,
00:12:59.873 --> 00:13:01.408
When you're in the pit, remember satan's favorite
00:13:01.474 --> 00:13:03.410
Remember satan's favorite weapon of attack is those
00:13:03.476 --> 00:13:05.612
Weapon of attack is those who are closest to you.
00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:07.948
Who are closest to you. joseph's brothers threw him
00:13:08.014 --> 00:13:09.216

00:13:09.282 --> 00:13:11.017
Into the pit and sold him for the price of a slave.
00:13:11.084 --> 00:13:12.986
For the price of a slave. jesus was sold by judas
00:13:13.053 --> 00:13:14.788
Jesus was sold by judas for the price of a slave.
00:13:14.855 --> 00:13:16.256
For the price of a slave. when satan throws his
00:13:16.323 --> 00:13:17.390
When satan throws his knock-out punch,
00:13:17.457 --> 00:13:18.725
Knock-out punch, he will not use a stranger.
00:13:18.792 --> 00:13:20.927
He will not use a stranger. he will use someone you love.
00:13:20.994 --> 00:13:24.831
He will use someone you love. that's a bible pattern.
00:13:24.898 --> 00:13:26.533
That's a bible pattern. when you're in the pit,
00:13:26.600 --> 00:13:27.300
When you're in the pit, remember you will never win
00:13:27.367 --> 00:13:28.568
Remember you will never win a spiritual battle logically.
00:13:28.635 --> 00:13:31.304
A spiritual battle logically. joseph had to learn to trust
00:13:31.371 --> 00:13:32.806
Joseph had to learn to trust god.
00:13:32.873 --> 00:13:34.374
God. god does not ask you
00:13:34.441 --> 00:13:35.408
God does not ask you to understand him,
00:13:35.475 --> 00:13:36.476
To understand him, because you do not have
00:13:36.543 --> 00:13:37.410
Because you do not have the intellect for that.
00:13:37.477 --> 00:13:39.045
The intellect for that. god does not ask you to defend
00:13:39.112 --> 00:13:40.547

00:13:49.522 --> 00:13:49.956
The bible says, "trust in the lord with all

"trust in the lord with all of your heart.
00:13:51.224 --> 00:13:52.092
Of your heart. lean not to your own
00:13:52.158 --> 00:13:53.260
Lean not to your own understanding.
00:13:53.326 --> 00:13:54.427
Understanding. in all of your ways,
00:13:54.494 --> 00:13:55.495
In all of your ways, acknowledge him and he will
00:13:55.562 --> 00:13:56.897
Acknowledge him and he will direct your paths."

One, it has to be hidden, and then it must be baited
00:14:12.345 --> 00:14:13.713
And then it must be baited with something that the animal

00:15:32.826 --> 00:15:34.561
The snare is a trap. "that they may come to their
00:15:34.627 --> 00:15:35.462
"that they may come to their senses and escape the trap
00:15:35.528 --> 00:15:37.364
Senses and escape the trap of the devil,
00:15:37.430 --> 00:15:38.231
Of the devil, having been taken captive
00:15:38.298 --> 00:15:40.767
Having been taken captive by him to do his will."
00:15:40.834 --> 00:15:44.404
By him to do his will." paul is saying to timothy,
00:15:44.471 --> 00:15:46.239
Paul is saying to timothy, once you are ensnared in this,
00:15:46.306 --> 00:15:49.843
Once you are ensnared in this, you become the instrument
00:15:49.909 --> 00:15:51.778
You become the instrument of the prince of darkness
00:15:51.845 --> 00:15:52.879
Of the prince of darkness himself.
00:15:52.946 --> 00:15:54.647
Himself. those who quarrel or fall into
00:15:54.714 --> 00:15:56.049
Those who quarrel or fall into opposition with spiritual
00:15:56.116 --> 00:15:57.784
Opposition with spiritual authority are in satan's trap.
00:15:57.851 --> 00:16:00.086
Authority are in satan's trap. they have taken the bait of
00:16:00.153 --> 00:16:01.388
They have taken the bait of the offense.
00:16:01.454 --> 00:16:02.489
The offense. saint paul said,
00:16:02.555 --> 00:16:03.356
Saint paul said, they are captives to do
00:16:03.423 --> 00:16:04.624
They are captives to do satan's will.
00:16:04.691 --> 00:16:06.593
Satan's will. every offended christian
00:16:06.659 --> 00:16:08.261
Every offended christian in every american church,
00:16:08.328 --> 00:16:11.264
In every american church, in paul's opinion,
00:16:11.331 --> 00:16:13.066
In paul's opinion, is an agent of satan himself.
00:16:13.133 --> 00:16:16.503
Is an agent of satan himself. they spread division.
00:16:16.569 --> 00:16:18.104
They spread division. they spread discord.
00:16:18.171 --> 00:16:19.806
They spread discord. they spread deception,
00:16:19.873 --> 00:16:21.574
They spread deception, because they have fallen into
00:16:21.641 --> 00:16:23.143
Because they have fallen into the trap of the offense.
00:16:23.209 --> 00:16:25.378
The trap of the offense. their carnal logic says,
00:16:25.445 --> 00:16:26.679
Their carnal logic says, "i have been hurt.
00:16:26.746 --> 00:16:27.714
"i have been hurt. i have been mistreated.
00:16:27.781 --> 00:16:28.748
I have been mistreated. i have been misjudged.
00:16:28.815 --> 00:16:30.116
I have been misjudged. i am justified
00:16:30.183 --> 00:16:31.084
I am justified in my behavior."
00:16:31.151 --> 00:16:32.786
In my behavior." no, you're not!
00:16:32.852 --> 00:16:35.155
No, you're not! [that's right.]
00:16:35.221 --> 00:16:35.688
[that's right.] look at joseph.
00:16:35.755 --> 00:16:36.423
Look at joseph. he was doing the will of
00:16:36.489 --> 00:16:37.257
He was doing the will of his father.
00:16:37.323 --> 00:16:38.358
His father. he was thrown into the pit.
00:16:38.425 --> 00:16:39.526
He was thrown into the pit. he was hated.
00:16:39.592 --> 00:16:40.126
He was hated. he was sold into slavery.
00:16:40.193 --> 00:16:41.628
He was sold into slavery. slavery led him to prison
00:16:41.694 --> 00:16:43.029
Slavery led him to prison for ten years.
00:16:43.096 --> 00:16:44.097
For ten years. here is a man who was
00:16:44.164 --> 00:16:45.331
Here is a man who was justified in screaming,
00:16:45.398 --> 00:16:46.866
Justified in screaming, "i've been mistreated.
00:16:46.933 --> 00:16:48.935
"i've been mistreated. i've been abused.
00:16:49.002 --> 00:16:51.071
I've been abused. i'm angry.
00:16:51.137 --> 00:16:52.372
I'm angry. my resentment is justified."
00:16:52.439 --> 00:16:55.809
My resentment is justified." and if i'd have been there
00:16:55.875 --> 00:16:56.543
And if i'd have been there with him,
00:16:56.609 --> 00:16:57.110
With him, i'd say, "you're right."
00:16:57.177 --> 00:16:58.845
I'd say, "you're right." (laughter)
00:16:58.912 --> 00:17:00.013
(laughter) joseph's response,
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:02.115
Joseph's response, 13 years after his brother
00:17:02.182 --> 00:17:04.684
13 years after his brother sold him into slavery.
00:17:04.751 --> 00:17:07.387
Sold him into slavery. his brothers are standing
00:17:07.454 --> 00:17:08.455
His brothers are standing before him.
00:17:08.521 --> 00:17:09.055
Before him. joseph is royalty and he has
00:17:09.122 --> 00:17:11.357
Joseph is royalty and he has the power just to snap
00:17:11.424 --> 00:17:13.359
The power just to snap his fingers
00:17:13.426 --> 00:17:14.394
His fingers (snapped fingers)
00:17:14.461 --> 00:17:15.395
(snapped fingers) and those brothers would have
00:17:15.462 --> 00:17:16.362
And those brothers would have been killed instantly
00:17:16.429 --> 00:17:18.498
Been killed instantly right where they were.
00:17:18.565 --> 00:17:20.467
Right where they were. the second time they come,
00:17:20.533 --> 00:17:21.701
The second time they come, joseph says in genesis 45,
00:17:21.768 --> 00:17:24.137
Joseph says in genesis 45, "i am joseph, your brother,
00:17:24.204 --> 00:17:26.806
"i am joseph, your brother, whom you sold into slavery."
00:17:26.873 --> 00:17:29.142
Whom you sold into slavery." listen.
00:17:29.209 --> 00:17:30.310
Listen. "but do not be angry with
00:17:30.376 --> 00:17:31.711
"but do not be angry with yourselves because you
00:17:31.778 --> 00:17:34.314
Yourselves because you sold me here;
00:17:34.380 --> 00:17:35.815
Sold me here; for god sent me here before
00:17:35.882 --> 00:17:37.884
For god sent me here before you to preserve your life."
00:17:37.951 --> 00:17:40.920
You to preserve your life." "moreover he kissed all
00:17:40.987 --> 00:17:42.255
"moreover he kissed all his brothers and he wept over
00:17:42.322 --> 00:17:44.457
His brothers and he wept over them."
00:17:44.524 --> 00:17:45.825
Them." wow!
00:17:45.892 --> 00:17:49.195
Wow! just get a picture of that.
00:17:49.262 --> 00:17:51.831
Just get a picture of that. he had the power to kill them,
00:17:51.898 --> 00:17:54.400
He had the power to kill them, but he kissed them.
00:17:54.467 --> 00:17:57.170
But he kissed them. does that describe you?
00:17:57.237 --> 00:18:01.407
Does that describe you? what's your response to
00:18:01.474 --> 00:18:02.509
What's your response to an offense?
00:18:02.575 --> 00:18:04.711
An offense? resentment?
00:18:04.777 --> 00:18:05.578
Resentment? bitterness?
00:18:05.645 --> 00:18:07.447
Bitterness? anger?
00:18:07.514 --> 00:18:11.584
Anger? think about it.
00:18:11.651 --> 00:18:13.786
Think about it. paul says you have taken
00:18:13.853 --> 00:18:15.188
Paul says you have taken satan's bait.
00:18:15.255 --> 00:18:17.357
Satan's bait. and you are now satan's agent
00:18:17.423 --> 00:18:19.659
And you are now satan's agent in your family,
00:18:19.726 --> 00:18:20.860
In your family, in your church,
00:18:20.927 --> 00:18:22.295
In your church, or in your business.
00:18:22.362 --> 00:18:24.097
Or in your business. the second pit is the pit
00:18:24.164 --> 00:18:25.198
The second pit is the pit of failure.
00:18:25.265 --> 00:18:27.066
Of failure. who here has not failed?
00:18:27.133 --> 00:18:28.835
Who here has not failed? i certainly have
00:18:28.902 --> 00:18:30.570
I certainly have miserably sometimes.
00:18:30.637 --> 00:18:33.239
Miserably sometimes. but god always comes by
00:18:33.306 --> 00:18:36.309
But god always comes by and says,
00:18:36.376 --> 00:18:36.976
And says, "stay the course."
00:18:37.043 --> 00:18:38.811
"stay the course." falling into a pit does not
00:18:38.878 --> 00:18:40.780
Falling into a pit does not make you a failure.
00:18:40.847 --> 00:18:42.515
Make you a failure. staying in the pit makes you
00:18:42.582 --> 00:18:44.651
Staying in the pit makes you a failure.
00:18:44.717 --> 00:18:45.752
A failure. get up and get out of it!
00:18:45.818 --> 00:18:48.154
Get up and get out of it! [amen.]
00:18:48.221 --> 00:18:48.721
[amen.] (applause)
00:18:48.788 --> 00:18:54.761
(applause) and lastly,
00:18:54.827 --> 00:18:56.129
And lastly, the third pit is the pit of
00:18:56.196 --> 00:18:57.330
The third pit is the pit of success.
00:18:57.397 --> 00:18:58.865
Success. it's true that nothing
00:18:58.932 --> 00:18:59.799
It's true that nothing succeeds like success,
00:18:59.866 --> 00:19:01.134
Succeeds like success, and it's also true that
00:19:01.201 --> 00:19:02.569
And it's also true that nothing destroys like success.
00:19:02.635 --> 00:19:05.271
Nothing destroys like success. move lives have been destroyed
00:19:05.338 --> 00:19:06.472
Move lives have been destroyed by success than failure.
00:19:06.539 --> 00:19:08.675
By success than failure. multitudes fall into the pit
00:19:08.741 --> 00:19:10.176
Multitudes fall into the pit called success
00:19:10.243 --> 00:19:11.377
Called success and fail to grow.
00:19:11.444 --> 00:19:12.979
And fail to grow. they fail to develop.
00:19:13.046 --> 00:19:14.347
They fail to develop. they fail to reach
00:19:14.414 --> 00:19:15.281
They fail to reach their potential.
00:19:15.348 --> 00:19:16.482
Their potential. they are stagnated.
00:19:16.549 --> 00:19:17.917
They are stagnated. they're purring over
00:19:17.984 --> 00:19:18.952
They're purring over their successes.
00:19:19.018 --> 00:19:19.986
Their successes. listen.
00:19:20.053 --> 00:19:20.820
Listen. the minute you get satisfied
00:19:20.887 --> 00:19:22.722
The minute you get satisfied with what you've accomplished,
00:19:22.789 --> 00:19:24.524
With what you've accomplished, stagnation sets in.
00:19:24.591 --> 00:19:26.292
Stagnation sets in. this is true of individuals.
00:19:26.359 --> 00:19:28.127
This is true of individuals. it's true of churches.
00:19:28.194 --> 00:19:29.662
It's true of churches. it's true of marriages.
00:19:29.729 --> 00:19:31.197
It's true of marriages. it's true of your business.
00:19:31.264 --> 00:19:33.132
It's true of your business. there are churches and church
00:19:33.199 --> 00:19:34.367
There are churches and church schools being destroyed,
00:19:34.434 --> 00:19:35.969
Schools being destroyed, not by bad people but by good
00:19:36.035 --> 00:19:37.770
Not by bad people but by good people who have stopped
00:19:37.837 --> 00:19:39.138
People who have stopped growing.
00:19:39.205 --> 00:19:40.406
Growing. there are churches in america
00:19:40.473 --> 00:19:41.708
There are churches in america that have been destroyed
00:19:41.774 --> 00:19:42.875
That have been destroyed by success.
00:19:42.942 --> 00:19:44.210
By success. they have become comfortable.
00:19:44.277 --> 00:19:46.613
They have become comfortable. comfortable churches stagnate
00:19:46.679 --> 00:19:48.781
Comfortable churches stagnate and rot.
00:19:48.848 --> 00:19:50.850
And rot. i want you to hear that.
00:19:50.917 --> 00:19:52.285
I want you to hear that. comfortable churches don't
00:19:52.352 --> 00:19:53.453
Comfortable churches don't take a stand on difficult
00:19:53.519 --> 00:19:55.355
Take a stand on difficult issues.
00:19:55.421 --> 00:19:56.256
Issues. if america wants 4,000
00:19:56.322 --> 00:19:57.824
If america wants 4,000 abortions a day,
00:19:57.890 --> 00:19:58.858
Abortions a day, let's not call it mass murder;
00:19:58.925 --> 00:20:00.627
Let's not call it mass murder; let's call it pro-choice.
00:20:00.693 --> 00:20:02.862
Let's call it pro-choice. if the aclu wants to take down
00:20:02.929 --> 00:20:04.530
If the aclu wants to take down the ten commandments out of
00:20:04.597 --> 00:20:05.732
The ten commandments out of every school,
00:20:05.798 --> 00:20:07.033
Every school, let's just call it pluralism.
00:20:07.100 --> 00:20:10.036
Let's just call it pluralism. if transsexuals want
00:20:10.103 --> 00:20:11.304
If transsexuals want acceptance,
00:20:11.371 --> 00:20:12.672
Acceptance, let's just call this
00:20:12.739 --> 00:20:13.706
Let's just call this an alternative lifestyle,
00:20:13.773 --> 00:20:15.742
An alternative lifestyle, better still,
00:20:15.808 --> 00:20:17.210
Better still, let's ordain them,
00:20:17.277 --> 00:20:19.178
Let's ordain them, bring them into the gospel
00:20:19.245 --> 00:20:20.480
Bring them into the gospel ministry so they really feel
00:20:20.546 --> 00:20:23.016
Ministry so they really feel appreciated.
00:20:23.082 --> 00:20:24.117
Appreciated. this is going on in the church
00:20:24.183 --> 00:20:25.385
This is going on in the church of america right now.
00:20:25.451 --> 00:20:27.487
Of america right now. if those who can work refuse
00:20:27.553 --> 00:20:29.289
If those who can work refuse to work,
00:20:29.355 --> 00:20:30.290
To work, let's just give them
00:20:30.356 --> 00:20:31.157
Let's just give them a government check and call it
00:20:31.224 --> 00:20:32.759
A government check and call it welfare.
00:20:32.825 --> 00:20:34.227
Welfare. the word of god says,
00:20:34.294 --> 00:20:36.062
The word of god says, you get nothing until you work
00:20:36.129 --> 00:20:37.997
You get nothing until you work for it.
00:20:38.064 --> 00:20:38.631
For it. [amen.]
00:20:38.698 --> 00:20:39.399
[amen.] do that!
00:20:39.465 --> 00:20:40.300
Do that! [yes.]
00:20:40.366 --> 00:20:40.967
[yes.] (applause)
00:20:41.034 --> 00:20:46.773
(applause) if we refuse to discipline
00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:48.041
If we refuse to discipline our children,
00:20:48.107 --> 00:20:49.242
Our children, let's not call it
00:20:49.309 --> 00:20:50.710
Let's not call it parental cowardice;
00:20:50.777 --> 00:20:52.312
Parental cowardice; let's call it
00:20:52.378 --> 00:20:53.780
Let's call it building self-esteem.
00:20:53.846 --> 00:20:56.015
Building self-esteem. if we use god's name in vain,
00:20:56.082 --> 00:20:57.750
If we use god's name in vain, which by the way according to
00:20:57.817 --> 00:20:59.018
Which by the way according to this book,
00:20:59.085 --> 00:20:59.919
This book, will send you straight
00:20:59.986 --> 00:21:00.853
Will send you straight to hell,
00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:02.355
To hell, let's call it freedom
00:21:02.422 --> 00:21:03.256
Let's call it freedom of speech.
00:21:03.323 --> 00:21:04.524
Of speech. if we are addicted to
00:21:04.590 --> 00:21:05.625
If we are addicted to pornography,
00:21:05.692 --> 00:21:06.359
Pornography, let's not call it lust;
00:21:06.426 --> 00:21:07.894

As iran is racing toward obtaining a nuclear weapon,
00:21:26.012 --> 00:21:27.814

Land for peace. not now, not ever.

Religious corpses, singing "amazing grace"
00:21:54.273 --> 00:21:55.742
Singing "amazing grace" in a dead church.
00:21:55.808 --> 00:21:57.744
In a dead church. if you join that church
00:21:57.810 --> 00:21:59.112
If you join that church and lived according to

And lived according to new testament holiness,
00:22:00.246 --> 00:22:01.814
New testament holiness, you would have to backslide

Their church and say, "this is good enough."
00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:09.021

A magnificent church school for our children?
00:22:23.236 --> 00:22:25.438
For our children? we did so to liberate them

When they get to be adults, how blessed they are.
00:22:34.080 --> 00:22:35.848
How blessed they are. why are we expanding

Of hope, becoming defenders of israel?

Comfortable in the pit called success.
