Pastor matt hagee: if you brought your bibles,
00:00:14.475 --> 00:00:15.076
Brought your bibles, turn them to the book of
00:00:15.142 --> 00:00:15.810
Turn them to the book of hebrews 10:23,
00:00:15.876 --> 00:00:18.913
Hebrews 10:23, as this morning we conclude
00:00:18.979 --> 00:00:20.147
As this morning we conclude the series
00:00:20.214 --> 00:00:20.748
The series "hope for a better tomorrow"
00:00:20.815 --> 00:00:22.950
"hope for a better tomorrow" with this message
00:00:23.017 --> 00:00:24.085
With this message "holding on to hope."
00:00:24.151 --> 00:00:27.888
"holding on to hope." in this series,
00:00:27.955 --> 00:00:28.756
In this series, we've seen the biblical
00:00:28.823 --> 00:00:30.558
We've seen the biblical perspective of what hope is
00:00:30.624 --> 00:00:32.460
Perspective of what hope is and how it was created.
00:00:32.526 --> 00:00:34.161
And how it was created. first and foremost,
00:00:34.228 --> 00:00:35.563
First and foremost, we have hope because of
00:00:35.629 --> 00:00:37.765
We have hope because of the love of god.
00:00:37.832 --> 00:00:39.533
The love of god. without god and his love,
00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:40.968
Without god and his love, we would be hope-less.
00:00:41.035 --> 00:00:43.904
We would be hope-less. and he demonstrated this love
00:00:43.971 --> 00:00:46.474
And he demonstrated this love when he gave us his only
00:00:46.540 --> 00:00:47.775
When he gave us his only begotten son.
00:00:47.842 --> 00:00:49.376
Begotten son. that's what paul said in the
00:00:49.443 --> 00:00:50.411
That's what paul said in the book of romans,
00:00:50.478 --> 00:00:51.412
Book of romans, "what shall we say of
00:00:51.479 --> 00:00:52.480
"what shall we say of these things?
00:00:52.546 --> 00:00:52.880
These things? seeing that he has not
00:00:52.947 --> 00:00:54.715
Seeing that he has not withheld his son,
00:00:54.782 --> 00:00:55.883
Withheld his son, how will he not freely give us
00:00:55.950 --> 00:00:57.585
How will he not freely give us all things?"
00:00:57.651 --> 00:00:59.220
All things?" we have hope because of
00:00:59.286 --> 00:01:00.321
We have hope because of the love of god and we have
00:01:00.387 --> 00:01:01.455
The love of god and we have hope because of the sacrifice
00:01:01.522 --> 00:01:03.090
Hope because of the sacrifice of jesus christ.
00:01:03.157 --> 00:01:04.725
Of jesus christ. our hope
00:01:04.792 --> 00:01:05.893
Our hope (picking up the anchor)
00:01:05.960 --> 00:01:08.462
(picking up the anchor) is anchored in what christ did
00:01:08.529 --> 00:01:11.765
Is anchored in what christ did when the bible says,
00:01:11.832 --> 00:01:13.501
When the bible says, "he went behind the veil."
00:01:13.567 --> 00:01:16.403
"he went behind the veil." that's into the presence of
00:01:16.470 --> 00:01:17.304
That's into the presence of god.
00:01:17.371 --> 00:01:18.939
God. (anchor noise)
00:01:19.006 --> 00:01:21.375
(anchor noise) "and he anchored us to
00:01:21.442 --> 00:01:23.777
"and he anchored us to the word of god."
00:01:23.844 --> 00:01:25.546
The word of god." why did he anchor us to
00:01:25.613 --> 00:01:27.014
Why did he anchor us to the word of god?
00:01:27.081 --> 00:01:28.482
The word of god? because god cannot lie.
00:01:28.549 --> 00:01:32.553
Because god cannot lie. and when you're looking for
00:01:32.620 --> 00:01:33.287
And when you're looking for something that you can
00:01:33.354 --> 00:01:34.121
Something that you can hope in,
00:01:34.188 --> 00:01:34.822
Hope in, what you want is something
00:01:34.889 --> 00:01:36.056
What you want is something that will always work.
00:01:36.123 --> 00:01:38.526
That will always work. the reason that it is
00:01:38.592 --> 00:01:39.426
The reason that it is impossible for god to lie is
00:01:39.493 --> 00:01:40.928
Impossible for god to lie is because god knows everything
00:01:40.995 --> 00:01:42.997
Because god knows everything and god can do everything,
00:01:43.063 --> 00:01:44.798
And god can do everything, so when god says something,
00:01:44.865 --> 00:01:46.667
So when god says something, he has to do it.
00:01:46.734 --> 00:01:49.203
He has to do it. this is why the bible says
00:01:49.270 --> 00:01:50.337
This is why the bible says in isaiah 55,
00:01:50.404 --> 00:01:51.939
In isaiah 55, "my word that comes forth from
00:01:52.006 --> 00:01:53.741
"my word that comes forth from my mouth will not return
00:01:53.807 --> 00:01:56.377
My mouth will not return void."
00:01:56.443 --> 00:01:57.678
Void." why doesn't it return void?
00:01:57.745 --> 00:01:59.180
Why doesn't it return void? because it will accomplish
00:01:59.246 --> 00:02:00.748
Because it will accomplish the purpose for which it was
00:02:00.814 --> 00:02:02.183
The purpose for which it was sent.
00:02:02.249 --> 00:02:03.751
Sent. all of the promises in god
00:02:03.817 --> 00:02:05.452
All of the promises in god are yes and they are amen.
00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:07.755
Are yes and they are amen. our responsibility is not to
00:02:07.821 --> 00:02:09.690
Our responsibility is not to discover whether or not
00:02:09.757 --> 00:02:10.758
Discover whether or not his promises are true.
00:02:10.824 --> 00:02:12.159
His promises are true. our responsibility is to hold
00:02:12.226 --> 00:02:13.928
Our responsibility is to hold onto hope no matter what
00:02:13.994 --> 00:02:15.563
Onto hope no matter what circumstances are going on
00:02:15.629 --> 00:02:17.164
Circumstances are going on in our life.
00:02:17.231 --> 00:02:18.332
In our life. [amen.]
00:02:18.399 --> 00:02:19.333
[amen.] people are giving up hope.
00:02:19.400 --> 00:02:21.468
People are giving up hope. why?
00:02:21.535 --> 00:02:22.670
Why? because they have forgotten
00:02:22.736 --> 00:02:23.771
Because they have forgotten that the hope that we have,
00:02:23.837 --> 00:02:25.739
That the hope that we have, the world didn't give it and
00:02:25.806 --> 00:02:27.341
The world didn't give it and the world can't take it away.
00:02:27.408 --> 00:02:29.510
The world can't take it away. our hope doesn't come from
00:02:29.577 --> 00:02:31.378
Our hope doesn't come from the promises of men.
00:02:31.445 --> 00:02:32.846
The promises of men. our hope does not come from
00:02:32.913 --> 00:02:34.582
Our hope does not come from the mouths of mortals.
00:02:34.648 --> 00:02:36.083
The mouths of mortals. child of god,
00:02:36.150 --> 00:02:36.817
Child of god, the greatest hope that we have
00:02:36.884 --> 00:02:38.919
The greatest hope that we have is this fact:
00:02:38.986 --> 00:02:40.054
Is this fact: jesus christ,
00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:41.322
Jesus christ, the king of kings,
00:02:41.388 --> 00:02:42.523
The king of kings, the lord of lords,
00:02:42.590 --> 00:02:43.791
The lord of lords, is soon to appear
00:02:43.857 --> 00:02:45.226
Is soon to appear and is coming back.
00:02:45.292 --> 00:02:46.560
And is coming back. give the lord a handclap
00:02:46.627 --> 00:02:48.062
Give the lord a handclap of praise.
00:02:48.128 --> 00:02:49.396
Of praise. (applause)
00:02:49.463 --> 00:02:55.002
(applause) today we look at
00:02:55.069 --> 00:02:55.669
Today we look at hebrews 10:23.
00:02:55.736 --> 00:02:58.706
Hebrews 10:23. if you're there, say, amen.
00:02:58.772 --> 00:03:00.174
If you're there, say, amen. [amen.]
00:03:00.241 --> 00:03:02.042
[amen.] "let us hold fast to
00:03:02.109 --> 00:03:04.111
"let us hold fast to the confession of our hope
00:03:04.178 --> 00:03:06.647
The confession of our hope without wavering.
00:03:06.714 --> 00:03:08.449
Without wavering. for he who promised
00:03:08.515 --> 00:03:10.651
For he who promised is faithful."
00:03:10.718 --> 00:03:11.919
Is faithful." read that last line again.
00:03:11.986 --> 00:03:13.621
Read that last line again. "he who promised is faithful."
00:03:13.687 --> 00:03:17.291
"he who promised is faithful." heavenly father,
00:03:17.358 --> 00:03:19.560
Heavenly father, today we're standing in
00:03:19.627 --> 00:03:20.527
Today we're standing in your sanctuary,
00:03:20.594 --> 00:03:22.930
Your sanctuary, and your faithfulness is what
00:03:22.997 --> 00:03:25.399
And your faithfulness is what we've come to celebrate.
00:03:25.466 --> 00:03:27.768
We've come to celebrate. you have promised that
00:03:27.835 --> 00:03:28.702
You have promised that when we gather,
00:03:28.769 --> 00:03:29.770
When we gather, you would be in our midst.
00:03:29.837 --> 00:03:31.805
You would be in our midst. in jesus' name, we pray.
00:03:31.872 --> 00:03:33.340
In jesus' name, we pray. amen.
00:03:33.407 --> 00:03:34.408
Amen. [amen!]
00:03:34.475 --> 00:03:34.908
[amen!] you may be seated.
00:03:34.975 --> 00:03:38.712
You may be seated. in this verse of scripture,
00:03:38.779 --> 00:03:40.414
In this verse of scripture, paul is challenging us,
00:03:40.481 --> 00:03:44.318
Paul is challenging us, almost daring us,
00:03:44.385 --> 00:03:45.886
Almost daring us, to go find a place where god
00:03:45.953 --> 00:03:48.088
To go find a place where god is not faithful.
00:03:48.155 --> 00:03:49.790
Is not faithful. he says,
00:03:49.857 --> 00:03:50.291
He says, "he who promised you
00:03:50.357 --> 00:03:51.859
"he who promised you is faithful."
00:03:51.925 --> 00:03:52.526
Is faithful." that's why you can hold on
00:03:52.593 --> 00:03:53.961
That's why you can hold on to hope without wavering.
00:03:54.028 --> 00:03:57.865
To hope without wavering. not being moved in what you
00:03:57.931 --> 00:03:59.833
Not being moved in what you know his word to be
00:03:59.900 --> 00:04:01.435
Know his word to be because he is faithful.
00:04:01.502 --> 00:04:04.338
Because he is faithful. and if you take time
00:04:04.405 --> 00:04:05.272
And if you take time and you go look,
00:04:05.339 --> 00:04:06.206
And you go look, it doesn't matter what end of
00:04:06.273 --> 00:04:07.474
It doesn't matter what end of the book you begin with,
00:04:07.541 --> 00:04:08.776
The book you begin with, either in genesis
00:04:08.842 --> 00:04:09.510
Either in genesis or revelation,
00:04:09.576 --> 00:04:10.377
Or revelation, from one end to the other
00:04:10.444 --> 00:04:11.879
From one end to the other and all the way back around,
00:04:11.945 --> 00:04:13.180
And all the way back around, god is faithful.
00:04:13.247 --> 00:04:16.216
God is faithful. [amen.]
00:04:16.283 --> 00:04:17.318
[amen.] joshua 21:45,
00:04:17.384 --> 00:04:20.054
Joshua 21:45, i love this verse.
00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:20.988
I love this verse. it says, "not a word failed.
00:04:21.055 --> 00:04:25.259
It says, "not a word failed. everything,
00:04:25.326 --> 00:04:26.293
Everything, anything good thing,
00:04:26.360 --> 00:04:27.361
Anything good thing, which the lord had spoken to
00:04:27.428 --> 00:04:28.629
Which the lord had spoken to the house of israel,
00:04:28.696 --> 00:04:29.697
The house of israel, all came to pass."
00:04:29.763 --> 00:04:33.400
All came to pass." "all came to pass."
00:04:33.467 --> 00:04:35.135
"all came to pass." say that with me.
00:04:35.202 --> 00:04:36.203
Say that with me. "all came to pass."
00:04:36.270 --> 00:04:38.639
"all came to pass." how faithful is god?
00:04:38.706 --> 00:04:40.140
How faithful is god? god is so faithful
00:04:40.207 --> 00:04:41.108
God is so faithful that when he says it,
00:04:41.175 --> 00:04:42.276
That when he says it, it all comes to pass.
00:04:42.343 --> 00:04:45.145
It all comes to pass. [yes.]
00:04:45.212 --> 00:04:45.746
[yes.] he has never made a promise
00:04:45.813 --> 00:04:46.880
He has never made a promise that he did not keep.
00:04:46.947 --> 00:04:48.749
That he did not keep. now his promises might take
00:04:48.816 --> 00:04:50.150
Now his promises might take longer than you want.
00:04:50.217 --> 00:04:52.152
Longer than you want. [amen.]
00:04:52.219 --> 00:04:52.720
[amen.] but if he said it,
00:04:52.786 --> 00:04:53.754
But if he said it, he'll do it.
00:04:53.821 --> 00:04:55.322
He'll do it. the question is,
00:04:55.389 --> 00:04:56.857
The question is, will you wait in hopeful
00:04:56.924 --> 00:04:58.525
Will you wait in hopeful expectation until it comes
00:04:58.592 --> 00:05:00.494
Expectation until it comes to pass?
00:05:00.561 --> 00:05:01.695
To pass? will you wait without
00:05:01.762 --> 00:05:03.297
Will you wait without wavering?
00:05:03.364 --> 00:05:03.864
Wavering? will you believe that
00:05:03.931 --> 00:05:05.132
Will you believe that everything that he has ever
00:05:05.199 --> 00:05:07.000
Everything that he has ever sent you in his word is true?
00:05:07.067 --> 00:05:11.472
Sent you in his word is true? this is what psalms 130:5
00:05:11.538 --> 00:05:13.907
This is what psalms 130:5 says; it says,
00:05:13.974 --> 00:05:14.475
Says; it says, "i wait for the lord.
00:05:14.541 --> 00:05:16.844
"i wait for the lord. my soul waits and in his word
00:05:16.910 --> 00:05:20.481
My soul waits and in his word i do hope."
00:05:20.547 --> 00:05:22.583
I do hope." now, what word in hebrew
00:05:22.649 --> 00:05:25.552
Now, what word in hebrew is being used for "waiting"
00:05:25.619 --> 00:05:27.454
Is being used for "waiting" here?
00:05:27.521 --> 00:05:30.791
Here? the word is "qava."
00:05:30.858 --> 00:05:32.960
The word is "qava." and literally what it means is
00:05:33.026 --> 00:05:34.928
And literally what it means is that i am twisted,
00:05:34.995 --> 00:05:42.236
That i am twisted, tangled up,
00:05:42.302 --> 00:05:44.905
Tangled up, can't get out of it too easy.
00:05:44.972 --> 00:05:48.342
Can't get out of it too easy. you ever been twisted with
00:05:48.409 --> 00:05:49.309
You ever been twisted with something?
00:05:49.376 --> 00:05:51.278
Something? i mean,
00:05:51.345 --> 00:05:51.779
I mean, you just can't get it out of
00:05:51.845 --> 00:05:52.346
You just can't get it out of your mind,
00:05:52.413 --> 00:05:52.846
Your mind, you can't get it out of
00:05:52.913 --> 00:05:53.447
You can't get it out of your mouth?
00:05:53.514 --> 00:05:54.348
Your mouth? [yes.]
00:05:54.415 --> 00:05:55.015
[yes.] people telling you,
00:05:55.082 --> 00:05:55.582
People telling you, "you should get over it."
00:05:55.649 --> 00:05:56.216
"you should get over it." and you're like,
00:05:56.283 --> 00:05:56.850
And you're like, "i can't get over it.
00:05:56.917 --> 00:05:57.384
"i can't get over it. i'm all twisted up."
00:05:57.451 --> 00:06:00.487
I'm all twisted up." sports people do this
00:06:00.554 --> 00:06:01.355
Sports people do this all the time.
00:06:01.422 --> 00:06:01.855
All the time. they get twisted up
00:06:01.922 --> 00:06:02.689
They get twisted up in their team.
00:06:02.756 --> 00:06:04.458
In their team. even when there's nothing
00:06:04.525 --> 00:06:05.092
Even when there's nothing to cheer for,
00:06:05.159 --> 00:06:05.726
To cheer for, they keep cheering for them.
00:06:05.793 --> 00:06:07.327
They keep cheering for them. (laughter)
00:06:07.394 --> 00:06:10.097
(laughter) they just can't let it go.
00:06:10.164 --> 00:06:12.266
They just can't let it go. well, what david is saying
00:06:12.332 --> 00:06:13.167
Well, what david is saying in psalms 130:5,
00:06:13.233 --> 00:06:15.035
In psalms 130:5, "i wait for the lord.
00:06:15.102 --> 00:06:18.472
"i wait for the lord. and my hope is in his word."
00:06:18.539 --> 00:06:20.174
And my hope is in his word." when i find something
00:06:20.240 --> 00:06:21.175
When i find something in god's word,
00:06:21.241 --> 00:06:22.176
In god's word, i just twist it up
00:06:22.242 --> 00:06:23.710
I just twist it up in my heart,
00:06:23.777 --> 00:06:24.445
In my heart, in my mind,
00:06:24.511 --> 00:06:25.579
In my mind, in my spirit until i get so
00:06:25.646 --> 00:06:27.714
In my spirit until i get so tangled in it that i can't
00:06:27.781 --> 00:06:28.916
Tangled in it that i can't let it go.
00:06:28.982 --> 00:06:31.084
Let it go. because i believe that if
00:06:31.151 --> 00:06:32.286
Because i believe that if it's in his promises,
00:06:32.352 --> 00:06:33.854
It's in his promises, then it has to come to pass.
00:06:33.921 --> 00:06:36.723
Then it has to come to pass. so, how does this work
00:06:36.790 --> 00:06:37.491
So, how does this work in your life?
00:06:37.558 --> 00:06:38.425
In your life? you have to take god's word
00:06:38.492 --> 00:06:40.661
You have to take god's word and get your life so entangled
00:06:40.727 --> 00:06:42.696
And get your life so entangled in it that when the
00:06:42.763 --> 00:06:43.430
In it that when the circumstances of this world
00:06:43.497 --> 00:06:44.731
Circumstances of this world come at you,
00:06:44.798 --> 00:06:46.133
Come at you, you just can't get out of it
00:06:46.200 --> 00:06:47.468
You just can't get out of it that easy.
00:06:47.534 --> 00:06:49.570
That easy. you read his word in
00:06:49.636 --> 00:06:50.904
You read his word in the psalms where it says,
00:06:50.971 --> 00:06:51.805
The psalms where it says, "he sent his word
00:06:51.872 --> 00:06:53.474
"he sent his word and he healed them."
00:06:53.540 --> 00:06:55.509
And he healed them." and you begin to believe that
00:06:55.576 --> 00:06:56.677
And you begin to believe that god is a healer.
00:06:56.743 --> 00:06:57.978
God is a healer. and then you go to
00:06:58.045 --> 00:06:58.812
And then you go to the doctor's office
00:06:58.879 --> 00:06:59.580
The doctor's office and the doctor gives you
00:06:59.646 --> 00:07:00.380
And the doctor gives you a diagnosis.
00:07:00.447 --> 00:07:01.482
A diagnosis. well, if you're twisted in
00:07:01.548 --> 00:07:02.583
Well, if you're twisted in his word,
00:07:02.649 --> 00:07:03.183
His word, that diagnosis doesn't
00:07:03.250 --> 00:07:04.485
That diagnosis doesn't unsettle you because you've
00:07:04.551 --> 00:07:05.919
Unsettle you because you've been connected to something
00:07:05.986 --> 00:07:07.087
Been connected to something that doesn't fail.
00:07:07.154 --> 00:07:08.388
That doesn't fail. and even if family history
00:07:08.455 --> 00:07:09.857
And even if family history is against you,
00:07:09.923 --> 00:07:10.724
Is against you, you're not worried about
00:07:10.791 --> 00:07:11.525
You're not worried about the generational curse
00:07:11.592 --> 00:07:12.826
The generational curse because the blood of the lamb
00:07:12.893 --> 00:07:13.894
Because the blood of the lamb can overcome it.
00:07:13.961 --> 00:07:14.828
Can overcome it. and even when the statistics
00:07:14.895 --> 00:07:16.096
And even when the statistics don't line up with whatever
00:07:16.163 --> 00:07:17.397
Don't line up with whatever it is that you were wanting,
00:07:17.464 --> 00:07:18.932
It is that you were wanting, you're not too concerned
00:07:18.999 --> 00:07:20.033
You're not too concerned because you can't let go
00:07:20.100 --> 00:07:21.268
Because you can't let go that easy.
00:07:21.335 --> 00:07:21.969
That easy. this promise has done
00:07:22.035 --> 00:07:23.070
This promise has done something to you.
00:07:23.136 --> 00:07:23.904
Something to you. it's tied itself around you.
00:07:23.971 --> 00:07:25.572
It's tied itself around you. you can't get out of it
00:07:25.639 --> 00:07:26.707
You can't get out of it that easy.
00:07:26.773 --> 00:07:27.574
That easy. [woo!]
00:07:27.641 --> 00:07:28.575

(applause) what i'm telling you is,
00:07:33.747 --> 00:07:34.615
What i'm telling you is, is you have got to get
00:07:34.681 --> 00:07:35.549
Is you have got to get yourself so entangled in
00:07:35.616 --> 00:07:37.518
Yourself so entangled in the word of god that it
00:07:37.584 --> 00:07:38.886
The word of god that it doesn't matter what hell
00:07:38.952 --> 00:07:39.953
Doesn't matter what hell throws at you,
00:07:40.020 --> 00:07:41.088
Throws at you, they can't take his promise
00:07:41.154 --> 00:07:42.556
They can't take his promise out of your life.
00:07:42.623 --> 00:07:44.691
Out of your life. [yes.]
00:07:44.758 --> 00:07:45.425
[yes.] it really doesn't matter
00:07:45.492 --> 00:07:46.593
It really doesn't matter what you're facing,
00:07:46.660 --> 00:07:47.828
What you're facing, god has a promise to meet
00:07:47.895 --> 00:07:49.363
God has a promise to meet that need.
00:07:49.429 --> 00:07:50.964
That need. it really doesn't matter what
00:07:51.031 --> 00:07:51.965
It really doesn't matter what you're going through
00:07:52.032 --> 00:07:52.599
You're going through financially,
00:07:52.666 --> 00:07:53.233
Financially, physically,
00:07:53.300 --> 00:07:53.734
Physically, emotionally,
00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:54.401
Emotionally, spiritually,
00:07:54.468 --> 00:07:55.102
Spiritually, in your family,
00:07:55.168 --> 00:07:56.003
In your family, wherever it happens to be,
00:07:56.069 --> 00:07:57.704
Wherever it happens to be, you cannot escape the fact
00:07:57.771 --> 00:07:59.439
You cannot escape the fact that god has met that
00:07:59.506 --> 00:08:01.008
That god has met that with a promise.
00:08:01.074 --> 00:08:02.009
With a promise. [yes.]
00:08:02.075 --> 00:08:02.776
[yes.] [thank you.]
00:08:02.843 --> 00:08:03.343
[thank you.] you will never go to
00:08:03.410 --> 00:08:04.011
You will never go to the throne room of the lord
00:08:04.077 --> 00:08:05.445
The throne room of the lord in grace and mercy
00:08:05.512 --> 00:08:06.647
In grace and mercy in the name of jesus,
00:08:06.713 --> 00:08:07.881
In the name of jesus, and god goes, "well,
00:08:07.948 --> 00:08:08.649
And god goes, "well, we've never dealt with that
00:08:08.715 --> 00:08:09.783
We've never dealt with that before."
00:08:09.850 --> 00:08:10.851
Before." (laughter)
00:08:10.918 --> 00:08:11.785
(laughter) listen to this promise,
00:08:11.852 --> 00:08:13.053
Listen to this promise, "my god shall supply all of
00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:15.222
"my god shall supply all of my needs."
00:08:15.289 --> 00:08:16.390
My needs." [woo.]
00:08:16.456 --> 00:08:16.990
[woo.] "according to his riches
00:08:17.057 --> 00:08:17.991
"according to his riches in glory."
00:08:18.058 --> 00:08:18.625
In glory." [yes.]
00:08:18.692 --> 00:08:19.393
[yes.] [yes.]
00:08:19.459 --> 00:08:19.993
[yes.] let that promise get
00:08:20.060 --> 00:08:20.594
Let that promise get twisted around your soul until
00:08:20.661 --> 00:08:22.462
Twisted around your soul until you begin to believe that
00:08:22.529 --> 00:08:23.564
You begin to believe that there's never been a problem
00:08:23.630 --> 00:08:25.098
There's never been a problem that god could not solve.
00:08:25.165 --> 00:08:26.400
That god could not solve. there's never been a mountain
00:08:26.466 --> 00:08:27.601
There's never been a mountain that he couldn't move.
00:08:27.668 --> 00:08:28.569
That he couldn't move. there's never been a storm
00:08:28.635 --> 00:08:29.703
There's never been a storm that he couldn't calm.
00:08:29.770 --> 00:08:31.772
That he couldn't calm. when you find a promise,
00:08:31.838 --> 00:08:33.273
When you find a promise, wrap it up in your life,
00:08:33.340 --> 00:08:35.008
Wrap it up in your life, and hold on to it knowing that
00:08:35.075 --> 00:08:36.810
And hold on to it knowing that the god who made that promise
00:08:36.877 --> 00:08:38.879
The god who made that promise is faithful.
00:08:38.946 --> 00:08:41.048
Is faithful. [amen.]
00:08:41.114 --> 00:08:41.415
[amen.] what is it about god's word
00:08:41.481 --> 00:08:43.250
What is it about god's word that we can place our full
00:08:43.317 --> 00:08:44.518
That we can place our full assurance of hope in?
00:08:44.585 --> 00:08:45.619
Assurance of hope in? first and foremost,
00:08:45.686 --> 00:08:46.587
First and foremost, his word is truth.
00:08:46.653 --> 00:08:50.290
His word is truth. jesus said in john 17,
00:08:50.357 --> 00:08:52.159
Jesus said in john 17, "thy word is truth."
00:08:52.225 --> 00:08:56.063
"thy word is truth." there's so many places you can
00:08:56.129 --> 00:08:57.030
There's so many places you can look in the world today
00:08:57.097 --> 00:08:58.131
Look in the world today and people say, "well,
00:08:58.198 --> 00:08:58.765
And people say, "well, we just want to know the truth.
00:08:58.832 --> 00:08:59.566
We just want to know the truth. we're searching for the truth.
00:08:59.633 --> 00:09:00.601
We're searching for the truth. we're hoping to find
00:09:00.667 --> 00:09:01.535
We're hoping to find the truth."
00:09:01.602 --> 00:09:02.202
The truth." the truth is not hard to find,
00:09:02.269 --> 00:09:03.704
The truth is not hard to find, the truth has been printed.
00:09:03.770 --> 00:09:06.139
The truth has been printed. [amen.]
00:09:06.206 --> 00:09:06.807
[amen.] (applause)
00:09:06.873 --> 00:09:10.844
(applause) and this is the standard
00:09:10.911 --> 00:09:12.479
And this is the standard of truth:
00:09:12.546 --> 00:09:13.113
Of truth: everything that you hear in
00:09:13.180 --> 00:09:14.448
Everything that you hear in the world that does not align
00:09:14.514 --> 00:09:16.383
The world that does not align with the word is not true.
00:09:16.450 --> 00:09:18.585
With the word is not true. [amen.]
00:09:18.652 --> 00:09:19.152
[amen.] why?
00:09:19.219 --> 00:09:19.753
Why? because thy word is truth.
00:09:19.820 --> 00:09:22.723
Because thy word is truth. [amen.]
00:09:22.789 --> 00:09:23.957
[amen.] and the truth has benefits.
00:09:24.024 --> 00:09:25.726
And the truth has benefits. [yes.]
00:09:25.792 --> 00:09:26.493
[yes.] john 8,
00:09:26.560 --> 00:09:27.828
John 8, "you shall know the truth
00:09:27.894 --> 00:09:29.863
"you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you
00:09:29.930 --> 00:09:31.665
And the truth shall make you free."
00:09:31.732 --> 00:09:34.134
Free." now this process of becoming
00:09:34.201 --> 00:09:36.336
Now this process of becoming free is a derivative
00:09:36.403 --> 00:09:38.171
Free is a derivative of knowing the truth.
00:09:38.238 --> 00:09:40.240
Of knowing the truth. lots of people have heard
00:09:40.307 --> 00:09:41.675
Lots of people have heard the truth,
00:09:41.742 --> 00:09:42.376
The truth, but it's not until you know
00:09:42.442 --> 00:09:43.610
But it's not until you know the truth that it starts
00:09:43.677 --> 00:09:44.711
The truth that it starts to make you free.
00:09:44.778 --> 00:09:46.947
To make you free. how do you know the truth?
00:09:47.014 --> 00:09:48.081
How do you know the truth? you read it and you obey it.
00:09:48.148 --> 00:09:51.451
You read it and you obey it. you just can't hear it.
00:09:51.518 --> 00:09:52.619
You just can't hear it. you have to read it and you
00:09:52.686 --> 00:09:54.054
You have to read it and you have to obey it.
00:09:54.121 --> 00:09:57.691
Have to obey it. what does the truth set you
00:09:57.758 --> 00:09:58.558
What does the truth set you free from?
00:09:58.625 --> 00:09:59.960
Free from? well, fear.
00:10:00.027 --> 00:10:02.229
Well, fear. 2 timothy,
00:10:02.295 --> 00:10:03.964
2 timothy, "god hasn't given us a spirit
00:10:04.031 --> 00:10:05.232
"god hasn't given us a spirit of fear,
00:10:05.298 --> 00:10:06.500
Of fear, but of power and of love
00:10:06.566 --> 00:10:08.969
But of power and of love and of sound mind."
00:10:09.036 --> 00:10:10.637
And of sound mind." so, how do you receive that?
00:10:10.704 --> 00:10:11.838
So, how do you receive that? first,
00:10:11.905 --> 00:10:12.339
First, you have to declare that
00:10:12.406 --> 00:10:13.206
You have to declare that his word is true.
00:10:13.273 --> 00:10:16.176
His word is true. then,
00:10:16.243 --> 00:10:16.943
Then, check him.
00:10:17.010 --> 00:10:18.512
Check him. find out if he's faithful.

00:15:35.095 --> 00:15:36.196
That means that if you read it from cover to cover,
00:15:36.262 --> 00:15:37.597
From cover to cover, you need to read it again
00:15:37.664 --> 00:15:38.832
You need to read it again because it's changing you
00:15:38.898 --> 00:15:40.467
Because it's changing you and you're changing with it.
00:15:40.533 --> 00:15:42.402
And you're changing with it. [amen.]
00:15:42.469 --> 00:15:45.038
[amen.] the word of god doesn't
00:15:45.105 --> 00:15:45.905
The word of god doesn't change,
00:15:45.972 --> 00:15:47.874
Change, but it's so powerful in its
00:15:47.941 --> 00:15:49.209
But it's so powerful in its truth that in everything that
00:15:49.275 --> 00:15:50.844
Truth that in everything that changes in your life,
00:15:50.910 --> 00:15:52.278
Changes in your life, this becomes the anchor.
00:15:52.345 --> 00:15:56.683
This becomes the anchor. have you ever read one of
00:15:56.750 --> 00:15:57.817
Have you ever read one of god's verses over and over
00:15:57.884 --> 00:15:59.352
God's verses over and over and over again?
00:15:59.419 --> 00:16:00.053
And over again? and every time you read it,
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:00.787
And every time you read it, it says something
00:16:00.854 --> 00:16:01.488
It says something just a little different?
00:16:01.554 --> 00:16:03.556
Just a little different? i mean,
00:16:03.623 --> 00:16:04.190
I mean, sometimes you pick up
00:16:04.257 --> 00:16:04.758
Sometimes you pick up god's word and you say,
00:16:04.824 --> 00:16:05.425
God's word and you say, "yes and amen.
00:16:05.492 --> 00:16:06.593
"yes and amen. that's for me."
00:16:06.659 --> 00:16:08.361
That's for me." and sometimes you pick it up
00:16:08.428 --> 00:16:09.029
And sometimes you pick it up and go, "ouch."
00:16:09.095 --> 00:16:10.897
And go, "ouch." (laughter)
00:16:10.964 --> 00:16:12.165
(laughter) now what happened?
00:16:12.232 --> 00:16:13.266
Now what happened? what's the difference between
00:16:13.333 --> 00:16:14.167
What's the difference between amen and ouch?
00:16:14.234 --> 00:16:17.003
Amen and ouch? it's not the promise.
00:16:17.070 --> 00:16:18.471
It's not the promise. it's the people.
00:16:18.538 --> 00:16:20.907
It's the people. when your life changes,
00:16:20.974 --> 00:16:22.442
When your life changes, the dynamic truth in this book
00:16:22.509 --> 00:16:24.377
The dynamic truth in this book changes with you.
00:16:24.444 --> 00:16:25.245
Changes with you. that's why hebrews 4 says,
00:16:25.311 --> 00:16:26.513
That's why hebrews 4 says, "the word of the lord is
00:16:26.579 --> 00:16:27.714
"the word of the lord is living and it's powerful."
00:16:27.781 --> 00:16:31.051
Living and it's powerful." it's not an outdated promise.
00:16:31.117 --> 00:16:32.752
It's not an outdated promise. it's alive.
00:16:32.819 --> 00:16:33.586
It's alive. it's sharper than any
00:16:33.653 --> 00:16:34.621
It's sharper than any two-edged sword,
00:16:34.687 --> 00:16:35.488
Two-edged sword, piercing even the division
00:16:35.555 --> 00:16:37.090
Piercing even the division of the soul and the spirit.
00:16:37.157 --> 00:16:38.191
Of the soul and the spirit. what's that mean?
00:16:38.258 --> 00:16:38.725
What's that mean? it means it gets past the
00:16:38.792 --> 00:16:39.859
It means it gets past the surface stuff and it gets all
00:16:39.926 --> 00:16:41.528
Surface stuff and it gets all the way down to the root of
00:16:41.594 --> 00:16:42.595
The way down to the root of the problem.
00:16:42.662 --> 00:16:44.264
The problem. [amen.]
00:16:44.330 --> 00:16:44.898
[amen.] [amen.]
00:16:44.964 --> 00:16:45.598
[amen.] when paul was talking about
00:16:45.665 --> 00:16:46.399
When paul was talking about a sword,
00:16:46.466 --> 00:16:47.033
A sword, he was describing the most
00:16:47.100 --> 00:16:47.901
He was describing the most common weapon in the natural
00:16:47.967 --> 00:16:49.803
Common weapon in the natural world.
00:16:49.869 --> 00:16:50.703
World. and what he was saying about
00:16:50.770 --> 00:16:52.105
And what he was saying about the word of god is that the
00:16:52.172 --> 00:16:53.540
The word of god is that the word of god is effective for
00:16:53.606 --> 00:16:55.542
Word of god is effective for protection and for offense.
00:16:55.608 --> 00:16:58.978
Protection and for offense. just like a natural sword
00:16:59.045 --> 00:17:00.346
Just like a natural sword could be used to defend and it
00:17:00.413 --> 00:17:01.915
Could be used to defend and it could be used to conquer.
00:17:01.981 --> 00:17:03.450
Could be used to conquer. the word of god can be used to
00:17:03.516 --> 00:17:05.485
The word of god can be used to defend and it can be used
00:17:05.552 --> 00:17:07.387
Defend and it can be used to conquer.
00:17:07.454 --> 00:17:09.522
To conquer. you don't always have to be on
00:17:09.589 --> 00:17:11.057
You don't always have to be on the defensive when you're
00:17:11.124 --> 00:17:12.158
The defensive when you're a child of god.
00:17:12.225 --> 00:17:13.126
A child of god. you can actually conquer
00:17:13.193 --> 00:17:16.062
You can actually conquer when you use the word of god.
00:17:16.129 --> 00:17:18.331
When you use the word of god. it has supernatural power
00:17:18.398 --> 00:17:19.966
It has supernatural power to go into heavenly places
00:17:20.033 --> 00:17:21.534
To go into heavenly places and the word of god says,
00:17:21.601 --> 00:17:22.802
And the word of god says, "pull down high things that
00:17:22.869 --> 00:17:24.437
"pull down high things that exalt itself against
00:17:24.504 --> 00:17:25.772
Exalt itself against the knowledge of god."
00:17:25.839 --> 00:17:27.941
The knowledge of god." but it also will protect
00:17:28.007 --> 00:17:29.109
But it also will protect and defend your heart, soul,
00:17:29.175 --> 00:17:30.510
And defend your heart, soul, mind, and body whenever
00:17:30.577 --> 00:17:31.811
Mind, and body whenever you're under attack.
00:17:31.878 --> 00:17:35.648
You're under attack. when the word of god is used
00:17:35.715 --> 00:17:36.916
When the word of god is used to protect your life,
00:17:36.983 --> 00:17:38.351
To protect your life, you first have to read it
00:17:38.418 --> 00:17:40.153
You first have to read it and then obey it.
00:17:40.220 --> 00:17:42.622
And then obey it. read it and then obey it.
00:17:42.689 --> 00:17:47.026
Read it and then obey it. jesus said,
00:17:47.093 --> 00:17:47.594
Jesus said, "blessed is he who hears
00:17:47.660 --> 00:17:49.129
"blessed is he who hears and does these sayings
00:17:49.195 --> 00:17:50.797
And does these sayings of mine."
00:17:50.864 --> 00:17:52.699
Of mine." nothing works in your life
00:17:52.765 --> 00:17:54.267
Nothing works in your life until you do it.
00:17:54.334 --> 00:17:56.669
Until you do it. you can hear all about it,
00:17:56.736 --> 00:17:57.737
You can hear all about it, but until you put it
00:17:57.804 --> 00:17:58.438
But until you put it to practice,
00:17:58.505 --> 00:17:59.272
To practice, it's ineffective.
00:17:59.339 --> 00:18:01.407
It's ineffective. when you put it into practice,
00:18:01.474 --> 00:18:03.343
When you put it into practice, it works every time.
00:18:03.409 --> 00:18:04.911
It works every time. the word of god will protect
00:18:04.978 --> 00:18:05.812
The word of god will protect you physically.
00:18:05.879 --> 00:18:06.880
You physically. proverbs 3:8 says,
00:18:06.946 --> 00:18:08.148
Proverbs 3:8 says, "it's health to your navel and
00:18:08.214 --> 00:18:09.849
"it's health to your navel and it's strength to your bones."
00:18:09.916 --> 00:18:12.619
It's strength to your bones." that means when you read it,
00:18:12.685 --> 00:18:13.987
That means when you read it, it's giving your body
00:18:14.053 --> 00:18:15.321
It's giving your body the vitamins that you need
00:18:15.388 --> 00:18:16.956
The vitamins that you need to continue to get stronger.
00:18:17.023 --> 00:18:19.492
To continue to get stronger. you say, "well,

You say, "well, i don't know that i believe
00:18:20.026 --> 00:18:20.894
I don't know that i believe that."
00:18:20.960 --> 00:18:21.528
That." it don't matter what
00:18:21.594 --> 00:18:22.162

Spirit and from their spirit it began to affect their body

But it's working." you know why?
00:18:47.153 --> 00:18:47.854
You know why? because the word of god
00:18:47.921 --> 00:18:48.821
Because the word of god does not return void
00:18:48.888 --> 00:18:50.089
Does not return void but it accomplishes.
00:18:50.156 --> 00:18:51.324

My heart trusted in him and i am helped.

I'll praise him." [amen.]

"my heart greatly rejoices." why?

Why? "because i put my trust

"because i put my trust and i put my hope in the lord
00:20:07.233 --> 00:20:09.135

And he helped me. he kept his word to me.
00:20:11.304 --> 00:20:13.573
He kept his word to me. therefore,
00:20:13.640 --> 00:20:14.040
Therefore, when others are consumed with

When others are consumed with fear and worry and doubt,
00:20:15.074 --> 00:20:16.576
Fear and worry and doubt, i'm not because i know where

I greatly rejoice." the word of god is not only
00:20:25.718 --> 00:20:26.619
The word of god is not only for the defense,
00:20:26.686 --> 00:20:27.453
For the defense, but it's for the offense.
00:20:27.520 --> 00:20:29.122
But it's for the offense. [amen.]
00:20:29.188 --> 00:20:30.623
[amen.] you have the ability
00:20:30.690 --> 00:20:31.691
You have the ability to go into heavenly places.
00:20:31.758 --> 00:20:33.926
To go into heavenly places. and jesus said,
00:20:33.993 --> 00:20:34.827
And jesus said, "whatever you bind,
00:20:34.894 --> 00:20:36.362
"whatever you bind, will be bound.
00:20:36.429 --> 00:20:37.897
Will be bound. and whatever you loose,
00:20:37.964 --> 00:20:39.465
And whatever you loose, will be loosed."
00:20:39.532 --> 00:20:41.501
Will be loosed." we live in a world where
00:20:41.567 --> 00:20:42.368
We live in a world where hell is on the loose.
00:20:42.435 --> 00:20:45.238
Hell is on the loose. why?
00:20:45.305 --> 00:20:46.005
Why? because the people who have
00:20:46.072 --> 00:20:47.173
Because the people who have the power to stop hell aren't
00:20:47.240 --> 00:20:49.442
The power to stop hell aren't doing what god told us to do
00:20:49.509 --> 00:20:50.843
Doing what god told us to do in order to accomplish that.
00:20:50.910 --> 00:20:53.079
In order to accomplish that. [yes.]
00:20:53.146 --> 00:20:53.813
[yes.] [come on.]
00:20:53.880 --> 00:20:54.347
[come on.] if hell's running loose,
00:20:54.414 --> 00:20:55.381
If hell's running loose, it's because the church is
00:20:55.448 --> 00:20:56.382
It's because the church is backing up.
00:20:56.449 --> 00:20:58.651
Backing up. and not standing up because
00:20:58.718 --> 00:21:00.320
And not standing up because the promise is the gates
00:21:00.386 --> 00:21:01.521
The promise is the gates of hell shall not prevail.
00:21:01.587 --> 00:21:04.057
Of hell shall not prevail. (applause)
00:21:04.123 --> 00:21:09.729
(applause) so, why is hell prevailing?
00:21:09.796 --> 00:21:11.364
So, why is hell prevailing? hell is prevailing because the
00:21:11.431 --> 00:21:12.832
Hell is prevailing because the church is failing to remember
00:21:12.899 --> 00:21:14.434
Church is failing to remember what the promise is.
00:21:14.500 --> 00:21:17.704
What the promise is. go look at this in the life of
00:21:17.770 --> 00:21:18.771
Go look at this in the life of jesus christ.
00:21:18.838 --> 00:21:19.672
Jesus christ. whenever he was tempted by
00:21:19.739 --> 00:21:21.174
Whenever he was tempted by the devil, matthew 4,
00:21:21.240 --> 00:21:24.777
The devil, matthew 4, he's led into the wilderness
00:21:24.844 --> 00:21:26.145
He's led into the wilderness by the spirit.
00:21:26.212 --> 00:21:28.314
By the spirit. don't ever think that any time
00:21:28.381 --> 00:21:29.549
Don't ever think that any time you get in a difficult
00:21:29.615 --> 00:21:30.316
You get in a difficult situation,
00:21:30.383 --> 00:21:31.217
Situation, it's just hell coming after
00:21:31.284 --> 00:21:32.452
It's just hell coming after you.
00:21:32.518 --> 00:21:33.019
You. he's led into the wilderness
00:21:33.086 --> 00:21:34.487
He's led into the wilderness by whom?
00:21:34.554 --> 00:21:35.822
By whom? the spirit.
00:21:35.888 --> 00:21:37.023
The spirit. he's right where god wants him
00:21:37.090 --> 00:21:38.324
He's right where god wants him to be.
00:21:38.391 --> 00:21:40.993
To be. and at the end of this
00:21:41.060 --> 00:21:42.028
And at the end of this fasting,
00:21:42.095 --> 00:21:43.496
Fasting, the enemy comes,
00:21:43.563 --> 00:21:44.964
The enemy comes, and it's the devil himself.
00:21:45.031 --> 00:21:46.199
And it's the devil himself. he didn't send some used
00:21:46.265 --> 00:21:47.300
He didn't send some used rent-a-demon,
00:21:47.367 --> 00:21:47.900
Rent-a-demon, he came here all by himself.
00:21:47.967 --> 00:21:51.137
He came here all by himself. most of the time, people say,
00:21:51.204 --> 00:21:51.871
Most of the time, people say, "oh, the devil, the devil,
00:21:51.938 --> 00:21:52.605
"oh, the devil, the devil, the devil."
00:21:52.672 --> 00:21:53.139
The devil." the devil's not bothering you.
00:21:53.206 --> 00:21:55.141
The devil's not bothering you. he sent some bush league demon
00:21:55.208 --> 00:21:56.676
He sent some bush league demon to come get you.
00:21:56.743 --> 00:21:58.144
To come get you. (applause & laughter)
00:21:58.211 --> 00:21:59.779
(applause & laughter) [that's right.]
00:21:59.846 --> 00:22:00.413
[that's right.] but here with jesus,
00:22:00.480 --> 00:22:01.214
But here with jesus, he actually shows up.
00:22:01.280 --> 00:22:04.150
He actually shows up. and what he does is the same
00:22:04.217 --> 00:22:06.586
And what he does is the same thing that he wants to do
00:22:06.652 --> 00:22:08.087
Thing that he wants to do with you.
00:22:08.154 --> 00:22:09.522
With you. he wants jesus to doubt
00:22:09.589 --> 00:22:11.457
He wants jesus to doubt his identity.
00:22:11.524 --> 00:22:13.760
His identity. he says,
00:22:13.826 --> 00:22:14.394
He says, "if you are the son of god,
00:22:14.460 --> 00:22:18.331
"if you are the son of god, in every scenario,
00:22:18.398 --> 00:22:20.166
In every scenario, if you are the son of god,
00:22:20.233 --> 00:22:21.768
If you are the son of god, well, i mean,
00:22:21.834 --> 00:22:22.301
Well, i mean, it shouldn't be anything
00:22:22.368 --> 00:22:22.902
It shouldn't be anything for you to change these rocks
00:22:22.969 --> 00:22:24.170
For you to change these rocks into bread.
00:22:24.237 --> 00:22:24.704
Into bread. and i know you're hungry,
00:22:24.771 --> 00:22:25.538
And i know you're hungry, so why don't you just do it?"
00:22:25.605 --> 00:22:26.906
So why don't you just do it?" i mean, after all,
00:22:26.973 --> 00:22:27.540
I mean, after all, you are the son of god.
00:22:27.607 --> 00:22:29.909
You are the son of god. if you are the son of god,
00:22:29.976 --> 00:22:33.413
If you are the son of god, well, then i'll give you
00:22:33.479 --> 00:22:34.046
Well, then i'll give you all of these nations.
00:22:34.113 --> 00:22:35.448
All of these nations. if you are the son of god."
00:22:35.515 --> 00:22:36.916
If you are the son of god." every time he wanted him
00:22:36.983 --> 00:22:38.017
Every time he wanted him to doubt who he was.
00:22:38.084 --> 00:22:39.552
To doubt who he was. what does the enemy want you
00:22:39.619 --> 00:22:40.686
What does the enemy want you to do?
00:22:40.753 --> 00:22:41.053
To do? they want you to doubt
00:22:41.120 --> 00:22:42.355
They want you to doubt god's promise in your life.
00:22:42.422 --> 00:22:45.491
God's promise in your life. are you saved?
00:22:45.558 --> 00:22:47.393
Are you saved? has god made a difference?
00:22:47.460 --> 00:22:49.429
Has god made a difference? do you really believe?
00:22:49.495 --> 00:22:51.364
Do you really believe? all of these questions
00:22:51.431 --> 00:22:52.331
All of these questions and doubts.
00:22:52.398 --> 00:22:53.065
And doubts. why?
00:22:53.132 --> 00:22:53.499
Why? because they get you to
00:22:53.566 --> 00:22:54.467
Because they get you to give up your hope.
00:22:54.534 --> 00:22:57.270
Give up your hope. and every time that the devil
00:22:57.336 --> 00:22:58.471
And every time that the devil came at jesus and asked him
00:22:58.538 --> 00:23:00.706
Came at jesus and asked him to question his identity,
00:23:00.773 --> 00:23:02.175
To question his identity, do you know what he said?
00:23:02.241 --> 00:23:04.143
Do you know what he said? "it is written."
00:23:04.210 --> 00:23:08.848
"it is written." he says, "okay,
00:23:08.915 --> 00:23:09.482
He says, "okay, let me tempt you again."
00:23:09.549 --> 00:23:10.183
Let me tempt you again." he says,
00:23:10.249 --> 00:23:11.617
He says, "it is written."
00:23:11.684 --> 00:23:15.221
"it is written." and then he tempted him again.
00:23:15.288 --> 00:23:16.155
And then he tempted him again. he said,
00:23:16.222 --> 00:23:17.990
He said, "it is written."
00:23:18.057 --> 00:23:21.861
"it is written." and he said,
00:23:21.928 --> 00:23:22.328
And he said, "away with you, satan."
00:23:22.395 --> 00:23:23.262
"away with you, satan." and the enemy had to flee.
00:23:23.329 --> 00:23:26.032
And the enemy had to flee. the enemy had to flee.
00:23:26.098 --> 00:23:28.301
The enemy had to flee. why?
00:23:28.367 --> 00:23:28.634
Why? because the enemy cannot fight
00:23:28.701 --> 00:23:30.636
Because the enemy cannot fight god's word.
00:23:30.703 --> 00:23:31.838
God's word. what does that mean for you,
00:23:31.904 --> 00:23:33.306
What does that mean for you, that whenever you take
00:23:33.372 --> 00:23:34.307
That whenever you take god's word and you begin to
00:23:34.373 --> 00:23:35.708
God's word and you begin to declare that in your life,
00:23:35.775 --> 00:23:37.543
Declare that in your life, you drive the enemy out of
00:23:37.610 --> 00:23:39.445
You drive the enemy out of your home.

You drive the enemy out of your business.
00:23:46.619 --> 00:23:47.453
Your business. because my god has given me
00:23:47.520 --> 00:23:49.288
Because my god has given me a victory through jesus christ
00:23:49.355 --> 00:23:51.123
A victory through jesus christ and jesus christ has given me
00:23:51.190 --> 00:23:52.725
And jesus christ has given me a victory in the authority
00:23:52.792 --> 00:23:54.193
A victory in the authority of his name.
00:23:54.260 --> 00:23:56.028
Of his name. (applause)
00:23:56.095 --> 00:23:59.665

00:23:59.732 --> 00:24:00.366
So, here's how i want to end this service.
00:24:00.433 --> 00:24:02.969
This service. if you need god's promise
00:24:03.035 --> 00:24:06.038
If you need god's promise in some place in your life,
00:24:06.105 --> 00:24:09.108
In some place in your life, in your physical body,

In your family, wherever it happens to be,

Wherever it happens to be, and you want to leave
00:24:14.814 --> 00:24:15.381
And you want to leave this place wrapped up in hope,
00:24:15.448 --> 00:24:19.685
This place wrapped up in hope, then i want you to stand
00:24:19.752 --> 00:24:20.386
Then i want you to stand right where you are.

The lord in prayer. and we're going to lay
00:24:28.094 --> 00:24:28.494
And we're going to lay this promise in our heart,
00:24:28.561 --> 00:24:31.797
This promise in our heart, our soul,
00:24:31.864 --> 00:24:32.331
Our soul, our mind,
00:24:32.398 --> 00:24:32.732
Our mind, and our mouth.
00:24:32.798 --> 00:24:34.133
And our mouth. and then when we leave here,
00:24:34.200 --> 00:24:35.167
And then when we leave here, we're going to hold on to that
00:24:35.234 --> 00:24:36.168
We're going to hold on to that promise until it comes to pass
00:24:36.235 --> 00:24:38.070
Promise until it comes to pass because if god said it,
00:24:38.137 --> 00:24:40.172
Because if god said it, he will do it.
00:24:40.239 --> 00:24:42.642
He will do it. [amen.]

Pastor matt hagee: could you imagine what would happen
00:25:48.708 --> 00:25:49.942
Imagine what would happen if the church discovered
00:25:50.009 --> 00:25:51.711
If the church discovered the identity that christ
00:25:51.777 --> 00:25:52.812
The identity that christ has given us;
00:25:52.878 --> 00:25:54.146
