♪ music ♪ pastor matt hagee: everybody
00:00:14.108 --> 00:00:14.809
Pastor matt hagee: everybody knows what a shout sounds
00:00:14.875 --> 00:00:16.143
Knows what a shout sounds like.
00:00:16.210 --> 00:00:17.645
Like. but there's all kinds of
00:00:17.711 --> 00:00:18.479
But there's all kinds of reasons why people shout.
00:00:18.546 --> 00:00:21.348
Reasons why people shout. if you've been married
00:00:21.415 --> 00:00:22.249
If you've been married any length of time,
00:00:22.316 --> 00:00:23.150
Any length of time, you're familiar with shouting,
00:00:23.217 --> 00:00:24.952
You're familiar with shouting, [amen.]
00:00:25.019 --> 00:00:25.686
[amen.] (laughter)
00:00:25.753 --> 00:00:26.854
(laughter) not for any nefarious reasons.
00:00:26.921 --> 00:00:28.456
Not for any nefarious reasons. i mean,
00:00:28.522 --> 00:00:28.989
I mean, sometimes you're just
00:00:29.056 --> 00:00:29.723
Sometimes you're just in the other room,
00:00:29.790 --> 00:00:30.257
In the other room, and you shout,
00:00:30.324 --> 00:00:30.724
And you shout, "do you want to eat?"
00:00:30.791 --> 00:00:32.226
"do you want to eat?" (laughter)
00:00:32.293 --> 00:00:33.060
(laughter) "well, what do you have?"
00:00:33.127 --> 00:00:33.828
"well, what do you have?" "yes or no?"
00:00:33.894 --> 00:00:35.563
"yes or no?" (laughter)
00:00:35.629 --> 00:00:36.997
(laughter) [woo!]
00:00:37.064 --> 00:00:37.832
[woo!] (laughter)
00:00:37.898 --> 00:00:40.067
(laughter) go to a sports game
00:00:40.134 --> 00:00:42.369
Go to a sports game and you'll hear people shout.
00:00:42.436 --> 00:00:45.773
And you'll hear people shout. shouting is just like talking;
00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:48.175
Shouting is just like talking; it's just a little louder.
00:00:48.242 --> 00:00:49.410
It's just a little louder. something happens.
00:00:49.477 --> 00:00:50.511
Something happens. it's a little different when
00:00:50.578 --> 00:00:51.846
It's a little different when the air gets all the way down
00:00:51.912 --> 00:00:53.180
The air gets all the way down into the bottom of your
00:00:53.247 --> 00:00:54.014
Into the bottom of your diaphragm and it comes up
00:00:54.081 --> 00:00:55.749
Diaphragm and it comes up in an explosive eruption as it
00:00:55.816 --> 00:00:58.018
In an explosive eruption as it travels over your vocal cords.
00:00:58.085 --> 00:00:59.887
Travels over your vocal cords. what was at a normal level
00:00:59.954 --> 00:01:01.856
What was at a normal level of loud,
00:01:01.922 --> 00:01:02.556
Of loud, now suddenly,
00:01:02.623 --> 00:01:03.257
Now suddenly, becomes something that you
00:01:03.324 --> 00:01:04.325
Becomes something that you might consider obnoxious,
00:01:04.391 --> 00:01:05.860
Might consider obnoxious, because it's not just normal
00:01:05.926 --> 00:01:07.061
Because it's not just normal talking;
00:01:07.128 --> 00:01:07.628
Talking; it's a shout!
00:01:07.695 --> 00:01:11.165
It's a shout! like i said,
00:01:11.232 --> 00:01:11.632
Like i said, go to an arena where people
00:01:11.699 --> 00:01:13.501
Go to an arena where people have paid tickets to have that
00:01:13.567 --> 00:01:17.104
Have paid tickets to have that seat 976 feet in the air.
00:01:17.171 --> 00:01:21.375
Seat 976 feet in the air. (laughter)
00:01:21.442 --> 00:01:22.977
(laughter) and when the guy that they
00:01:23.043 --> 00:01:24.011
And when the guy that they came to see runs out of
00:01:24.078 --> 00:01:25.279
Came to see runs out of the locker room and onto
00:01:25.346 --> 00:01:26.280
The locker room and onto the court,
00:01:26.347 --> 00:01:27.014
The court, they shout.
00:01:27.081 --> 00:01:28.048
They shout. it's warm-ups,
00:01:28.115 --> 00:01:29.917
It's warm-ups, and they shout.
00:01:29.984 --> 00:01:31.519
And they shout. he hadn't done anything yet.
00:01:31.585 --> 00:01:32.686
He hadn't done anything yet. he hadn't scored any points.
00:01:32.753 --> 00:01:33.821
He hadn't scored any points. he hadn't dunked a basketball,
00:01:33.888 --> 00:01:35.189
He hadn't dunked a basketball, but ooh-ooh-ooh
00:01:35.256 --> 00:01:36.056
But ooh-ooh-ooh (clapping),
00:01:36.123 --> 00:01:36.690
(clapping), here he comes.
00:01:36.757 --> 00:01:38.225
Here he comes. (laughter)
00:01:38.292 --> 00:01:39.160
(laughter) and then they go buy
00:01:39.226 --> 00:01:39.727
And then they go buy a $200 coke
00:01:39.793 --> 00:01:40.728
A $200 coke and a box of popcorn.
00:01:40.794 --> 00:01:42.730
And a box of popcorn. (laughter)
00:01:42.796 --> 00:01:43.898
(laughter) and they get back up in
00:01:43.964 --> 00:01:44.698
And they get back up in their seat.
00:01:44.765 --> 00:01:45.332
Their seat. and the first time he does
00:01:45.399 --> 00:01:46.300
And the first time he does anything remotely athletic,
00:01:46.367 --> 00:01:48.502
Anything remotely athletic, they shout, "yay!"
00:01:48.569 --> 00:01:51.805
They shout, "yay!" (laughter)
00:01:51.872 --> 00:01:53.140
(laughter) it's amazing to me why people
00:01:53.207 --> 00:01:54.942
It's amazing to me why people are so willing to engage in
00:01:55.009 --> 00:01:56.911
Are so willing to engage in those arenas and those spaces
00:01:56.977 --> 00:01:58.612
Those arenas and those spaces and those places with such
00:01:58.679 --> 00:01:59.847
And those places with such enthusiasm and excitement,
00:01:59.914 --> 00:02:01.415
Enthusiasm and excitement, but then they come to church
00:02:01.482 --> 00:02:02.716
But then they come to church and they sit still,
00:02:02.783 --> 00:02:03.817
And they sit still, and they act like everyone
00:02:03.884 --> 00:02:04.718
And they act like everyone should be quiet.
00:02:04.785 --> 00:02:06.020
Should be quiet. [yes.]
00:02:06.086 --> 00:02:06.887
[yes.] [amen.]
00:02:06.954 --> 00:02:08.455
[amen.] [woo.]
00:02:08.522 --> 00:02:10.424
[woo.] you see,
00:02:10.491 --> 00:02:10.925
You see, the bible tells us in
00:02:10.991 --> 00:02:11.625
The bible tells us in various passages;
00:02:11.692 --> 00:02:13.928
Various passages; it says,
00:02:13.994 --> 00:02:14.562
It says, "shout for joy unto the lord."
00:02:14.628 --> 00:02:17.631
"shout for joy unto the lord." and it says,
00:02:17.698 --> 00:02:18.199
And it says, "shout unto god with a voice
00:02:18.265 --> 00:02:20.668
"shout unto god with a voice of triumph."
00:02:20.734 --> 00:02:22.036
Of triumph." and it says,
00:02:22.102 --> 00:02:22.503
And it says, "with a shout of praise,
00:02:22.570 --> 00:02:24.672
"with a shout of praise, will i enter his gates
00:02:24.738 --> 00:02:25.639
Will i enter his gates with thanksgiving."
00:02:25.706 --> 00:02:27.208
With thanksgiving." why?
00:02:27.274 --> 00:02:28.209
Why? because there are times
00:02:28.275 --> 00:02:29.276
Because there are times when you need to consider
00:02:29.343 --> 00:02:30.678
When you need to consider what god has done for you,
00:02:30.744 --> 00:02:32.479
What god has done for you, not the price you paid
00:02:32.546 --> 00:02:34.215
Not the price you paid to see him,
00:02:34.281 --> 00:02:35.115
To see him, but the price he paid
00:02:35.182 --> 00:02:36.650
But the price he paid to receive you as his child.
00:02:36.717 --> 00:02:39.253
To receive you as his child. and when you start to consider
00:02:39.320 --> 00:02:40.554
And when you start to consider who you were before you
00:02:40.621 --> 00:02:41.789
Who you were before you met him,
00:02:41.855 --> 00:02:42.456
Met him, and now who you are because
00:02:42.523 --> 00:02:44.058
And now who you are because you have him,
00:02:44.124 --> 00:02:45.226
You have him, child of god,
00:02:45.292 --> 00:02:46.093
Child of god, there are times when it is
00:02:46.160 --> 00:02:47.394
There are times when it is okay to let the world know
00:02:47.461 --> 00:02:49.563
Okay to let the world know how you feel about the god
00:02:49.630 --> 00:02:51.232
How you feel about the god that you serve.
00:02:51.298 --> 00:02:52.233
That you serve. it's okay to shout about
00:02:52.299 --> 00:02:54.235
It's okay to shout about a healer,
00:02:54.301 --> 00:02:54.868
A healer, who can break the bonds
00:02:54.935 --> 00:02:56.070
Who can break the bonds of sickness.
00:02:56.136 --> 00:02:56.870
Of sickness. it's okay to shout about
00:02:56.937 --> 00:02:58.505
It's okay to shout about a provider who can make a way
00:02:58.572 --> 00:03:00.507
A provider who can make a way where there seems to be
00:03:00.574 --> 00:03:01.609
Where there seems to be no way.
00:03:01.675 --> 00:03:02.276
No way. it's okay to shout about a god
00:03:02.343 --> 00:03:04.745
It's okay to shout about a god who heals,
00:03:04.812 --> 00:03:05.512
Who heals, and restores,
00:03:05.579 --> 00:03:06.313
And restores, and revives,
00:03:06.380 --> 00:03:07.114
And revives, and redeems,
00:03:07.181 --> 00:03:08.015
And redeems, and moves mountains,
00:03:08.082 --> 00:03:09.183
And moves mountains, and defends,
00:03:09.250 --> 00:03:09.917
And defends, and protects,
00:03:09.984 --> 00:03:10.851
And protects, and lifts the burden,
00:03:10.918 --> 00:03:12.052
And lifts the burden, and destroys the yoke!
00:03:12.119 --> 00:03:13.454
And destroys the yoke! when you're talking about
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:14.521
When you're talking about that kind of jesus,
00:03:14.588 --> 00:03:16.023
That kind of jesus, give him a shout of praise!
00:03:16.090 --> 00:03:19.293
Give him a shout of praise! (applause)
00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:21.328
(applause) but on this day,
00:03:21.395 --> 00:03:23.163
But on this day, they're mad at bartimaeus
00:03:23.230 --> 00:03:24.999
They're mad at bartimaeus for shouting.
00:03:25.065 --> 00:03:27.534
For shouting. and i would contend with you
00:03:27.601 --> 00:03:28.836
And i would contend with you that for all of the people
00:03:28.902 --> 00:03:29.803
That for all of the people who are walking with jesus,
00:03:29.870 --> 00:03:31.472
Who are walking with jesus, they're blind to who he
00:03:31.538 --> 00:03:33.240
They're blind to who he truly is,
00:03:33.307 --> 00:03:34.041
Truly is, but the blind guy actually
00:03:34.108 --> 00:03:35.409
But the blind guy actually sees him.
00:03:35.476 --> 00:03:36.343
Sees him. [woo!]
00:03:36.410 --> 00:03:39.713
[woo!] [amen.]
00:03:39.780 --> 00:03:40.281
[amen.] and you need to understand
00:03:40.347 --> 00:03:40.948
And you need to understand that the more things change,
00:03:41.015 --> 00:03:42.283
That the more things change, the more they -- what?
00:03:42.349 --> 00:03:43.784
The more they -- what? -- stay the same.
00:03:43.851 --> 00:03:46.186
-- stay the same. because there are a lot of
00:03:46.253 --> 00:03:47.021
Because there are a lot of people here today and there's
00:03:47.087 --> 00:03:48.188
People here today and there's a lot of people in this world
00:03:48.255 --> 00:03:49.556
A lot of people in this world who are blind to who jesus
00:03:49.623 --> 00:03:51.558
Who are blind to who jesus truly is.
00:03:51.625 --> 00:03:52.793
Truly is. [yes.]
00:03:52.860 --> 00:03:54.895
[yes.] you see,
00:03:54.962 --> 00:03:55.362
You see, from the jewish perspective,
00:03:55.429 --> 00:03:56.363
From the jewish perspective, it wasn't anything strange for
00:03:56.430 --> 00:03:58.165
It wasn't anything strange for jesus to be walking towards
00:03:58.232 --> 00:03:59.600
Jesus to be walking towards jerusalem at this time
00:03:59.667 --> 00:04:01.101
Jerusalem at this time of year,
00:04:01.168 --> 00:04:01.535
Of year, because as it says in luke 22,
00:04:01.602 --> 00:04:03.904
Because as it says in luke 22, it was the time of
00:04:03.971 --> 00:04:05.239
It was the time of the passover.
00:04:05.306 --> 00:04:07.107
The passover. the passover was the time
00:04:07.174 --> 00:04:08.442
The passover was the time when god commanded the men
00:04:08.509 --> 00:04:10.144
When god commanded the men in israel to make their way to
00:04:10.210 --> 00:04:12.012
In israel to make their way to the temple so that they could
00:04:12.079 --> 00:04:13.280
The temple so that they could sacrifice the spotless lamb
00:04:13.347 --> 00:04:15.516
Sacrifice the spotless lamb and remember the redemption
00:04:15.582 --> 00:04:17.284
And remember the redemption that god gave them
00:04:17.351 --> 00:04:18.385
That god gave them through moses in egypt.
00:04:18.452 --> 00:04:21.055
Through moses in egypt. not only were they to remember
00:04:21.121 --> 00:04:22.489
Not only were they to remember the redemption of the first
00:04:22.556 --> 00:04:24.058
The redemption of the first passover that delivered them
00:04:24.124 --> 00:04:25.559
Passover that delivered them from the slavery of egypt,
00:04:25.626 --> 00:04:27.161
From the slavery of egypt, but they were to be reminded
00:04:27.227 --> 00:04:29.229
But they were to be reminded that god had promised that
00:04:29.296 --> 00:04:30.764
That god had promised that there would be one who was to
00:04:30.831 --> 00:04:32.766
There would be one who was to come who would be the messiah
00:04:32.833 --> 00:04:34.802
Come who would be the messiah who would set up a kingdom
00:04:34.868 --> 00:04:36.170
Who would set up a kingdom of a thousand years of peace.
00:04:36.236 --> 00:04:38.639
Of a thousand years of peace. [amen.]
00:04:38.706 --> 00:04:39.239
[amen.] as a matter of fact,
00:04:39.306 --> 00:04:40.007
As a matter of fact, even to this day,
00:04:40.074 --> 00:04:41.108
Even to this day, there's a phrase
00:04:41.175 --> 00:04:41.875
There's a phrase in the jewish culture
00:04:41.942 --> 00:04:42.643
In the jewish culture that says,
00:04:42.710 --> 00:04:43.077
That says, "next year in jerusalem."
00:04:43.143 --> 00:04:45.179
"next year in jerusalem." and what they're saying is,
00:04:45.245 --> 00:04:46.413
And what they're saying is, hopefully,
00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:47.481
Hopefully, next year when we celebrate
00:04:47.548 --> 00:04:49.216
Next year when we celebrate passover,
00:04:49.283 --> 00:04:49.850
Passover, we're not going to celebrate
00:04:49.917 --> 00:04:50.951
We're not going to celebrate it just with us,
00:04:51.018 --> 00:04:52.052
It just with us, but messiah will be here.
00:04:52.119 --> 00:04:54.488
But messiah will be here. [amen.]
00:04:54.555 --> 00:04:55.656
[amen.] so on this day,
00:04:55.723 --> 00:04:56.757
So on this day, when jesus is walking towards
00:04:56.824 --> 00:04:58.559
When jesus is walking towards jerusalem,
00:04:58.625 --> 00:04:59.226
Jerusalem, thousands of faithful jews are
00:04:59.293 --> 00:05:01.328
Thousands of faithful jews are in the same caravan,
00:05:01.395 --> 00:05:02.996
In the same caravan, because they're all going to
00:05:03.063 --> 00:05:04.865
Because they're all going to jerusalem looking for the one
00:05:04.932 --> 00:05:06.767
Jerusalem looking for the one who was promised to come.
00:05:06.834 --> 00:05:08.135
Who was promised to come. guess who's in the crowd?
00:05:08.202 --> 00:05:10.571
Guess who's in the crowd? the one.
00:05:10.637 --> 00:05:13.006
The one. he's just a few feet away,
00:05:13.073 --> 00:05:14.308
He's just a few feet away, and they don't even know
00:05:14.375 --> 00:05:14.975
And they don't even know he's there.
00:05:15.042 --> 00:05:17.111
He's there. they're blinded.
00:05:17.177 --> 00:05:19.146
They're blinded. they're blinded by
00:05:19.213 --> 00:05:19.847
They're blinded by their traditions.
00:05:19.913 --> 00:05:22.583
Their traditions. there's no way that
00:05:22.649 --> 00:05:23.817
There's no way that the messiah's going to come
00:05:23.884 --> 00:05:25.319
The messiah's going to come in a manger.
00:05:25.386 --> 00:05:26.954
In a manger. there's no way that
00:05:27.020 --> 00:05:27.855
There's no way that the messiah's going to come
00:05:27.921 --> 00:05:29.223
The messiah's going to come out of nazareth.
00:05:29.289 --> 00:05:31.759
Out of nazareth. nazareth?
00:05:31.825 --> 00:05:34.128
Nazareth? this is what philip said
00:05:34.194 --> 00:05:36.029
This is what philip said to nathaniel in john 1.
00:05:36.096 --> 00:05:38.532
To nathaniel in john 1. he said,
00:05:38.599 --> 00:05:39.032
He said, "we have found him that moses
00:05:39.099 --> 00:05:41.201
"we have found him that moses spoke of and the prophets
00:05:41.268 --> 00:05:42.336
Spoke of and the prophets spoke of.
00:05:42.403 --> 00:05:43.170
Spoke of. he's jesus of nazareth."
00:05:43.237 --> 00:05:44.905
He's jesus of nazareth." now think about this.
00:05:44.972 --> 00:05:46.006
Now think about this. philip is saying,
00:05:46.073 --> 00:05:46.974
Philip is saying, the guy that we've been
00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:47.941
The guy that we've been looking for,
00:05:48.008 --> 00:05:48.509
Looking for, for a thousand years,
00:05:48.575 --> 00:05:49.643
For a thousand years, has just showed up.
00:05:49.710 --> 00:05:51.712
Has just showed up. and the first thing nathaniel
00:05:51.779 --> 00:05:52.646
And the first thing nathaniel says is,
00:05:52.713 --> 00:05:53.313
Says is, "not from nazareth."
00:05:53.380 --> 00:05:56.316
"not from nazareth." you see,
00:05:56.383 --> 00:05:56.717
You see, there's times when
00:05:56.784 --> 00:05:58.185
There's times when our perspective,
00:05:58.252 --> 00:05:59.219
Our perspective, our assumptions,
00:05:59.286 --> 00:06:00.154
Our assumptions, our familiarity
00:06:00.220 --> 00:06:01.455
Our familiarity cancels out the true identity
00:06:01.522 --> 00:06:03.690
Cancels out the true identity of jesus christ.
00:06:03.757 --> 00:06:06.193
Of jesus christ. jesus is making his way
00:06:06.260 --> 00:06:07.761
Jesus is making his way to jerusalem,
00:06:07.828 --> 00:06:08.495
To jerusalem, and there's people
00:06:08.562 --> 00:06:09.096
And there's people who are blinded because of
00:06:09.163 --> 00:06:10.330
Who are blinded because of their religious tradition
00:06:10.397 --> 00:06:11.565
Their religious tradition and obligations.
00:06:11.632 --> 00:06:12.833
And obligations. his disciples,
00:06:12.900 --> 00:06:13.901
His disciples, they're not blinded by
00:06:13.967 --> 00:06:14.835
They're not blinded by traditions;
00:06:14.902 --> 00:06:15.369
Traditions; they're blinded by ambition.
00:06:15.436 --> 00:06:17.371
They're blinded by ambition. [whistle]
00:06:17.438 --> 00:06:19.206
[whistle] they believe that this is
00:06:19.273 --> 00:06:20.507
They believe that this is the promised one.
00:06:20.574 --> 00:06:21.508
The promised one. they believe that
00:06:21.575 --> 00:06:22.476
They believe that he's just like moses.
00:06:22.543 --> 00:06:23.977
He's just like moses. they believe that what moses
00:06:24.044 --> 00:06:25.412
They believe that what moses did in egypt,
00:06:25.479 --> 00:06:26.346
Did in egypt, jesus is going to do
00:06:26.413 --> 00:06:27.448
Jesus is going to do in jerusalem.
00:06:27.514 --> 00:06:28.315
In jerusalem. this is why the disciples are
00:06:28.382 --> 00:06:29.616
This is why the disciples are arguing with each other all
00:06:29.683 --> 00:06:31.218
Arguing with each other all the way up to the time of
00:06:31.285 --> 00:06:32.219
The way up to the time of his arrest;
00:06:32.286 --> 00:06:33.620
His arrest; who's going to be
00:06:33.687 --> 00:06:34.221
Who's going to be the greatest?
00:06:34.288 --> 00:06:34.655
The greatest? who's going to sit on
00:06:34.721 --> 00:06:35.322
Who's going to sit on your left?
00:06:35.389 --> 00:06:35.823
Your left? who's going to sit on
00:06:35.889 --> 00:06:36.457
Who's going to sit on your right?
00:06:36.523 --> 00:06:37.090
Your right? who are you going to hand
00:06:37.157 --> 00:06:38.192
Who are you going to hand the crown and the authority
00:06:38.258 --> 00:06:39.393
The crown and the authority and the power to?
00:06:39.460 --> 00:06:40.127
And the power to? because we know who you are.
00:06:40.194 --> 00:06:41.662
Because we know who you are. you're the son of
00:06:41.728 --> 00:06:42.262
You're the son of the living god.
00:06:42.329 --> 00:06:42.963
The living god. you're going to kick
00:06:43.030 --> 00:06:43.730
You're going to kick pontius pilate right out of
00:06:43.797 --> 00:06:45.065
Pontius pilate right out of his chair.
00:06:45.132 --> 00:06:45.833
His chair. you're going to clean out
00:06:45.899 --> 00:06:46.967
You're going to clean out the swamp.
00:06:47.034 --> 00:06:47.534
The swamp. we are riding the j train
00:06:47.601 --> 00:06:49.169
We are riding the j train all the way to the capital,
00:06:49.236 --> 00:06:50.471
All the way to the capital, baby.
00:06:50.537 --> 00:06:51.705
Baby. (laughter & applause)
00:06:51.772 --> 00:06:53.974
(laughter & applause) and just like it was then,
00:06:54.041 --> 00:06:55.309
And just like it was then, it is now.
00:06:55.375 --> 00:06:55.843
It is now. there are people,
00:06:55.909 --> 00:06:56.376
There are people, who are interested in what
00:06:56.443 --> 00:06:57.277
Who are interested in what jesus can do for them,
00:06:57.344 --> 00:06:58.712
Jesus can do for them, not what they can do for him;
00:06:58.779 --> 00:07:01.949
Not what they can do for him; not, "lord, let me serve you,"
00:07:02.015 --> 00:07:03.450
Not, "lord, let me serve you," but "lord, you serve me."
00:07:03.517 --> 00:07:04.918
But "lord, you serve me." you need to understand
00:07:04.985 --> 00:07:05.686
You need to understand something.
00:07:05.752 --> 00:07:07.287
Something. jesus christ is not
00:07:07.354 --> 00:07:10.157
Jesus christ is not a political figure.
00:07:10.224 --> 00:07:12.392
A political figure. contrary to popular belief,
00:07:12.459 --> 00:07:14.161
Contrary to popular belief, he's not a left
00:07:14.228 --> 00:07:15.496
He's not a left or a right-leaning god.
00:07:15.562 --> 00:07:16.997
Or a right-leaning god. he doesn't live in a red state
00:07:17.064 --> 00:07:18.966
He doesn't live in a red state or a blue state.
00:07:19.032 --> 00:07:19.967
Or a blue state. he's not a conservative
00:07:20.033 --> 00:07:21.168
He's not a conservative and he's not a liberal.
00:07:21.235 --> 00:07:22.369
And he's not a liberal. he is, however,
00:07:22.436 --> 00:07:23.837
He is, however, king above kings,
00:07:23.904 --> 00:07:25.405
King above kings, and he is lord above lords.
00:07:25.472 --> 00:07:27.508
And he is lord above lords. he sits on the throne
00:07:27.574 --> 00:07:29.243
He sits on the throne and he holds this earth
00:07:29.309 --> 00:07:30.878
And he holds this earth in the palm of his hand.
00:07:30.944 --> 00:07:32.145
In the palm of his hand. he is the highest
00:07:32.212 --> 00:07:33.881
He is the highest of the high courts.
00:07:33.947 --> 00:07:34.982
Of the high courts. he cannot be overruled.
00:07:35.048 --> 00:07:36.850
He cannot be overruled. he will not be overturned.
00:07:36.917 --> 00:07:39.019
He will not be overturned. and he cannot be outvoted.
00:07:39.086 --> 00:07:41.121
And he cannot be outvoted. he is greater than
00:07:41.188 --> 00:07:42.356
He is greater than the greatest forces
00:07:42.422 --> 00:07:43.624
The greatest forces on the face of the earth.
00:07:43.690 --> 00:07:45.259
On the face of the earth. when the powerful people
00:07:45.325 --> 00:07:46.593
When the powerful people on this planet get together
00:07:46.660 --> 00:07:48.428
On this planet get together and they plot and they plan,
00:07:48.495 --> 00:07:50.163
And they plot and they plan, the bible calls it,
00:07:50.230 --> 00:07:51.164
The bible calls it, "a vain thing."
00:07:51.231 --> 00:07:52.666
"a vain thing." why?
00:07:52.733 --> 00:07:53.233
Why? because god is the one
00:07:53.300 --> 00:07:54.835
Because god is the one who decides.
00:07:54.902 --> 00:07:55.836
Who decides. he looks at the plans of earth
00:07:55.903 --> 00:07:57.504
He looks at the plans of earth and he laughs and he brings
00:07:57.571 --> 00:07:59.039
And he laughs and he brings wise men into confusion.
00:07:59.106 --> 00:08:01.542
Wise men into confusion. if this nation,
00:08:01.608 --> 00:08:02.943
If this nation, if this world,
00:08:03.010 --> 00:08:04.144
If this world, if these people
00:08:04.211 --> 00:08:05.212
If these people are ever going to be saved,
00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:06.813
Are ever going to be saved, revived and restored,
00:08:06.880 --> 00:08:08.515
Revived and restored, it will not be when we try
00:08:08.582 --> 00:08:10.117
It will not be when we try to fit god into our agenda.
00:08:10.183 --> 00:08:12.352
To fit god into our agenda. it will be when we humble
00:08:12.419 --> 00:08:13.954
It will be when we humble ourselves and when we pray,
00:08:14.021 --> 00:08:15.956
Ourselves and when we pray, and when we willingly seek
00:08:16.023 --> 00:08:17.424
And when we willingly seek his face.
00:08:17.491 --> 00:08:18.358
His face. that's when he heals our land!
00:08:18.425 --> 00:08:22.629
That's when he heals our land! [amen.]
00:08:22.696 --> 00:08:23.363
[amen.] (applause)
00:08:23.430 --> 00:08:27.701
(applause) people want to know;
00:08:27.768 --> 00:08:28.735
People want to know; when is god going to move?
00:08:28.802 --> 00:08:30.170
When is god going to move? when is god going to revive?
00:08:30.237 --> 00:08:31.738
When is god going to revive? when is god going to change?
00:08:31.805 --> 00:08:33.173
When is god going to change? god is not going to change
00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:35.175
God is not going to change until we repent.
00:08:35.242 --> 00:08:36.944
Until we repent. [amen.]
00:08:37.010 --> 00:08:37.611
[amen.] [come on.]
00:08:37.678 --> 00:08:38.278
[come on.] then he'll heal and change
00:08:38.345 --> 00:08:39.413
Then he'll heal and change our land.
00:08:39.479 --> 00:08:40.581
Our land. [amen.]
00:08:40.647 --> 00:08:41.281
[amen.] we cannot be one nation
00:08:41.348 --> 00:08:43.116
We cannot be one nation under god until we submit
00:08:43.183 --> 00:08:45.619
Under god until we submit to him.
00:08:45.686 --> 00:08:46.987
To him. [amen.]
00:08:47.054 --> 00:08:47.654
[amen.] and until then,
00:08:47.721 --> 00:08:48.488
And until then, we are going to be a nation
00:08:48.555 --> 00:08:49.990
We are going to be a nation gone under.
00:08:50.057 --> 00:08:51.592
Gone under. [yes.]
00:08:51.658 --> 00:08:53.093
[yes.] because the bible says,
00:08:53.160 --> 00:08:53.860
Because the bible says, "all nations that forget god
00:08:53.927 --> 00:08:55.762
"all nations that forget god are turned into hell."
00:08:55.829 --> 00:08:58.932
Are turned into hell." the people who are walking
00:08:58.999 --> 00:08:59.967
The people who are walking with jesus have their agenda,
00:09:00.033 --> 00:09:01.735
With jesus have their agenda, but they don't know who jesus
00:09:01.802 --> 00:09:03.070
But they don't know who jesus truly is.
00:09:03.136 --> 00:09:04.004
Truly is. yet bartimaeus,
00:09:04.071 --> 00:09:05.205
Yet bartimaeus, he calls out to him.
00:09:05.272 --> 00:09:06.607
He calls out to him. and he says something that is
00:09:06.673 --> 00:09:07.908
And he says something that is so powerful and so profound.
00:09:07.975 --> 00:09:09.910
So powerful and so profound. he says,
00:09:09.977 --> 00:09:10.344
He says, "jesus, son of david."
00:09:10.410 --> 00:09:13.814
"jesus, son of david." it's a messianic statement.
00:09:13.880 --> 00:09:17.050
It's a messianic statement. he's saying,
00:09:17.117 --> 00:09:17.551
He's saying, you're not the boy from
00:09:17.618 --> 00:09:18.285
You're not the boy from nazareth,
00:09:18.352 --> 00:09:19.953
Nazareth, you're not the controversy
00:09:20.020 --> 00:09:21.254
You're not the controversy in the manger,
00:09:21.321 --> 00:09:22.356
In the manger, you're not that radical rabbi
00:09:22.422 --> 00:09:23.857
You're not that radical rabbi from galilee,
00:09:23.924 --> 00:09:24.925
From galilee, you are the son of david.
00:09:24.992 --> 00:09:27.694
You are the son of david. you are the seed of jesse.
00:09:27.761 --> 00:09:29.930
You are the seed of jesse. you are the one that they
00:09:29.997 --> 00:09:31.999
You are the one that they promised would come.
00:09:32.065 --> 00:09:33.433
Promised would come. and when you come,
00:09:33.500 --> 00:09:34.501
And when you come, the bible said that the spirit
00:09:34.568 --> 00:09:35.902
The bible said that the spirit of the lord was upon you,
00:09:35.969 --> 00:09:37.371
Of the lord was upon you, because he anointed you to
00:09:37.437 --> 00:09:39.373
Because he anointed you to open up the eyes of the blind.
00:09:39.439 --> 00:09:41.642
Open up the eyes of the blind. so if you are who they say
00:09:41.708 --> 00:09:43.844
So if you are who they say you are,
00:09:43.910 --> 00:09:44.578
You are, then you should be able to do
00:09:44.645 --> 00:09:46.179
Then you should be able to do what they said you can do.
00:09:46.246 --> 00:09:47.748
What they said you can do. and i'm a blind man,
00:09:47.814 --> 00:09:49.282
And i'm a blind man, so today i'm asking you,
00:09:49.349 --> 00:09:51.318
So today i'm asking you, "son of david,
00:09:51.385 --> 00:09:52.786
"son of david, have mercy on me."
00:09:52.853 --> 00:09:56.323
Have mercy on me." [amen.]
00:09:56.390 --> 00:09:57.190
[amen.] [amen.]
00:09:57.257 --> 00:09:57.758
[amen.] bartimaeus may not have had
00:09:57.824 --> 00:09:58.525
Bartimaeus may not have had natural sight,
00:09:58.592 --> 00:09:59.192
Natural sight, but trust me;
00:09:59.259 --> 00:09:59.893
But trust me; he saw a lot more than you
00:09:59.960 --> 00:10:00.927
He saw a lot more than you think he did.
00:10:00.994 --> 00:10:03.330
Think he did. in luke,
00:10:03.397 --> 00:10:04.131
In luke, we're told that he's
00:10:04.197 --> 00:10:04.798
We're told that he's a blind beggar.
00:10:04.865 --> 00:10:07.801
A blind beggar. in mark,
00:10:07.868 --> 00:10:08.368
In mark, we're given his name,
00:10:08.435 --> 00:10:09.503
We're given his name, bartimaeus.
00:10:09.569 --> 00:10:12.105
Bartimaeus. now why would mark give us
00:10:12.172 --> 00:10:12.973
Now why would mark give us his name?
00:10:13.040 --> 00:10:13.573
His name? because in the bible,
00:10:13.640 --> 00:10:14.908
Because in the bible, your name revealed
00:10:14.975 --> 00:10:15.842
Your name revealed your character.
00:10:15.909 --> 00:10:18.211
Your character. and the hebrew word
00:10:18.278 --> 00:10:19.379
And the hebrew word "bartimaeus" is actually
00:10:19.446 --> 00:10:20.447
"bartimaeus" is actually two words put together.
00:10:20.514 --> 00:10:21.648
Two words put together. "bar" is the hebrew word for
00:10:21.715 --> 00:10:23.717
"bar" is the hebrew word for "son of."
00:10:23.784 --> 00:10:27.087
"son of." this is why when a hebrew
00:10:27.154 --> 00:10:28.722
This is why when a hebrew child turns 13,
00:10:28.789 --> 00:10:29.890
Child turns 13, he has a bar mitzvah.
00:10:29.956 --> 00:10:32.292
He has a bar mitzvah. "mitzvah" is blessing.
00:10:32.359 --> 00:10:33.493
"mitzvah" is blessing. "bar" is son of.
00:10:33.560 --> 00:10:35.195
"bar" is son of. so that celebration means
00:10:35.262 --> 00:10:36.863
So that celebration means you are a son of blessing.
00:10:36.930 --> 00:10:39.599
You are a son of blessing. "bat mitzvah," daughter of,
00:10:39.666 --> 00:10:41.635
"bat mitzvah," daughter of, "mitzvah," blessing.
00:10:41.702 --> 00:10:42.669
"mitzvah," blessing. you are a daughter
00:10:42.736 --> 00:10:43.704
You are a daughter of blessing.
00:10:43.770 --> 00:10:44.471
Of blessing. you are here to be blessed.
00:10:44.538 --> 00:10:47.074
You are here to be blessed. so "bar" means son of.
00:10:47.140 --> 00:10:49.342
So "bar" means son of. what does "timaeus" mean?
00:10:49.409 --> 00:10:51.778
What does "timaeus" mean? it doesn't mean blessing.
00:10:51.845 --> 00:10:54.247
It doesn't mean blessing. it means foul and defiled one.
00:10:54.314 --> 00:10:59.052
It means foul and defiled one. blind bartimaeus is not only
00:10:59.119 --> 00:11:00.987
Blind bartimaeus is not only unable to see,
00:11:01.054 --> 00:11:01.822
Unable to see, but blind bartimaeus has
00:11:01.888 --> 00:11:02.923
But blind bartimaeus has a history that's not worth
00:11:02.989 --> 00:11:04.091
A history that's not worth talking about,
00:11:04.157 --> 00:11:04.758
Talking about, because he's the son
00:11:04.825 --> 00:11:05.926
Because he's the son of the foul
00:11:05.992 --> 00:11:06.960
Of the foul and the son of the defiled.
00:11:07.027 --> 00:11:11.031
And the son of the defiled. and not only is he in
00:11:11.098 --> 00:11:12.432
And not only is he in a bad situation,
00:11:12.499 --> 00:11:15.902
A bad situation, but literally in the city
00:11:15.969 --> 00:11:17.237
But literally in the city of jericho,
00:11:17.304 --> 00:11:17.904
Of jericho, he's geographically
00:11:17.971 --> 00:11:19.473
He's geographically in the lowest place
00:11:19.539 --> 00:11:20.974
In the lowest place on the face of the earth.
00:11:21.041 --> 00:11:24.277
On the face of the earth. ninety-two feet below
00:11:24.344 --> 00:11:25.612
Ninety-two feet below sea level is where jericho
00:11:25.679 --> 00:11:27.280
Sea level is where jericho resides.
00:11:27.347 --> 00:11:27.914
Resides. and everything is a climb up
00:11:27.981 --> 00:11:30.083
And everything is a climb up from there.as season,
00:11:30.150 --> 00:11:31.151
Remember,
00:11:32.119 --> 00:11:32.719
Bethlehem was no accident.
00:11:32.719 --> 00:11:34.154
Long before the world
00:11:34.154 --> 00:11:35.088
Was formed.
00:11:35.088 --> 00:11:35.689
God chose that
00:11:35.689 --> 00:11:36.556
Holy night for the savior
00:11:36.556 --> 00:11:37.758

Call the number on your screen

Or visit jhm.org/noel
00:12:26.106 --> 00:12:31.211
Who cannot see.
00:12:31.278 --> 00:12:33.246
Who cannot see. not only can he not see,
00:12:33.313 --> 00:12:34.347
Not only can he not see, but because he's blind,
00:12:34.414 --> 00:12:35.382
But because he's blind, he cannot work,
00:12:35.448 --> 00:12:36.149
He cannot work, so he's in poverty.
00:12:36.216 --> 00:12:37.217
So he's in poverty. not only is he in poverty,
00:12:37.284 --> 00:12:38.385
Not only is he in poverty, he's got a social problem.
00:12:38.451 --> 00:12:39.619
He's got a social problem. he's the son of the foul and
00:12:39.686 --> 00:12:41.421
He's the son of the foul and he's the son of the defiled.
00:12:41.488 --> 00:12:43.356
He's the son of the defiled. and he's in a low, low place.
00:12:43.423 --> 00:12:48.495
And he's in a low, low place. men around him would think,
00:12:48.562 --> 00:12:50.263
Men around him would think, if there's anybody who's not
00:12:50.330 --> 00:12:51.498
If there's anybody who's not worthy to call upon jesus,
00:12:51.565 --> 00:12:53.400
Worthy to call upon jesus, it's bartimaeus.
00:12:53.466 --> 00:12:56.336
It's bartimaeus. but before we judge bartimaeus
00:12:56.403 --> 00:12:57.971
But before we judge bartimaeus for calling out to christ,
00:12:58.038 --> 00:12:59.539
For calling out to christ, recognize that you and i,
00:12:59.606 --> 00:13:01.374
Recognize that you and i, without jesus in our lives,
00:13:01.441 --> 00:13:03.410
Without jesus in our lives, are just as low,
00:13:03.476 --> 00:13:04.477
Are just as low, just as lost,
00:13:04.544 --> 00:13:05.478
Just as lost, and just as poor
00:13:05.545 --> 00:13:06.646
And just as poor as bartimaeus.
00:13:06.713 --> 00:13:08.481
As bartimaeus. we are all sons and daughters
00:13:08.548 --> 00:13:10.383
We are all sons and daughters of the defiled,
00:13:10.450 --> 00:13:11.218
Of the defiled, because the bible says,
00:13:11.284 --> 00:13:12.152
Because the bible says, "by one man did sin enter
00:13:12.219 --> 00:13:13.987
"by one man did sin enter the world."
00:13:14.054 --> 00:13:14.421
The world." that man was adam.
00:13:14.487 --> 00:13:15.689
That man was adam. and romans tells us very
00:13:15.755 --> 00:13:16.990
And romans tells us very clearly that all have sinned
00:13:17.057 --> 00:13:19.259
Clearly that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory
00:13:19.326 --> 00:13:20.627
And fallen short of the glory of god.
00:13:20.694 --> 00:13:21.127
Of god. without jesus in your life,
00:13:21.194 --> 00:13:23.496
Without jesus in your life, you are a defiled man
00:13:23.563 --> 00:13:25.432
You are a defiled man and a defiled woman.
00:13:25.498 --> 00:13:26.733
And a defiled woman. it doesn't matter how old,
00:13:26.800 --> 00:13:28.101
It doesn't matter how old, how young,
00:13:28.168 --> 00:13:28.869
How young, how rich,
00:13:28.935 --> 00:13:29.536
How rich, how poor.
00:13:29.603 --> 00:13:30.403
How poor. spiritually,
00:13:30.470 --> 00:13:31.338
Spiritually, you're in the lowest place
00:13:31.404 --> 00:13:32.672
You're in the lowest place on the face of the earth
00:13:32.739 --> 00:13:34.007
On the face of the earth if you do not have
00:13:34.074 --> 00:13:34.808
If you do not have jesus christ as your savior.
00:13:34.875 --> 00:13:37.143
Jesus christ as your savior. [amen.]
00:13:37.210 --> 00:13:38.011
[amen.] without him,
00:13:38.078 --> 00:13:38.678
Without him, you have no hope.
00:13:38.745 --> 00:13:39.679
You have no hope. for jesus said,
00:13:39.746 --> 00:13:40.513
For jesus said, "i am the door.
00:13:40.580 --> 00:13:41.948
"i am the door. no man comes unto the father
00:13:42.015 --> 00:13:43.817
No man comes unto the father but by me."
00:13:43.884 --> 00:13:45.085
But by me." [right.]
00:13:45.151 --> 00:13:45.619
[right.] without him,
00:13:45.685 --> 00:13:46.253
Without him, you have no joy,
00:13:46.319 --> 00:13:47.554
You have no joy, because in his presence
00:13:47.621 --> 00:13:49.089
Because in his presence is the fullness of joy.
00:13:49.155 --> 00:13:50.357
Is the fullness of joy. without him,
00:13:50.423 --> 00:13:51.024
Without him, you have no peace,
00:13:51.091 --> 00:13:52.225
You have no peace, because he is
00:13:52.292 --> 00:13:52.893
Because he is the prince of peace.
00:13:52.959 --> 00:13:54.327
The prince of peace. without him,
00:13:54.394 --> 00:13:55.195
Without him, you have no victory,
00:13:55.262 --> 00:13:56.763
You have no victory, because he is the god
00:13:56.830 --> 00:13:57.864
Because he is the god who gives you the power
00:13:57.931 --> 00:13:59.165
Who gives you the power to overcome every form
00:13:59.232 --> 00:14:01.101
To overcome every form of affliction.
00:14:01.167 --> 00:14:03.236
Of affliction. [yes.]
00:14:03.303 --> 00:14:03.737
[yes.] bartimaeus may not have been
00:14:03.803 --> 00:14:04.838
Bartimaeus may not have been where he wanted to be.
00:14:04.905 --> 00:14:06.606
Where he wanted to be. he may not have had a history
00:14:06.673 --> 00:14:07.841
He may not have had a history that he was proud of.
00:14:07.908 --> 00:14:09.576
That he was proud of. he may not have been able
00:14:09.643 --> 00:14:10.777
He may not have been able to do much within his own self
00:14:10.844 --> 00:14:13.113
To do much within his own self to improve his circumstance,
00:14:13.179 --> 00:14:15.682
To improve his circumstance, but he was told something
00:14:15.749 --> 00:14:17.250
But he was told something that changed everything,
00:14:17.317 --> 00:14:18.685
That changed everything, and that was this:
00:14:18.752 --> 00:14:19.753
And that was this: "jesus is passing by."
00:14:19.819 --> 00:14:22.822
"jesus is passing by." [amen.]
00:14:22.889 --> 00:14:25.191
[amen.] child of god,
00:14:25.258 --> 00:14:25.892
Child of god, you may not be where you
00:14:25.959 --> 00:14:26.726
You may not be where you want to be today.
00:14:26.793 --> 00:14:28.495
Want to be today. you may not be who you
00:14:28.561 --> 00:14:29.429
You may not be who you want to be today.
00:14:29.496 --> 00:14:31.131
Want to be today. you may not feel like you can
00:14:31.197 --> 00:14:32.332
You may not feel like you can do anything to change
00:14:32.399 --> 00:14:33.533
Do anything to change your circumstance
00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:34.301
Your circumstance or situations.
00:14:34.367 --> 00:14:35.435
Or situations. but i'm here to tell you
00:14:35.502 --> 00:14:36.569
But i'm here to tell you that this is a time that god
00:14:36.636 --> 00:14:38.071
That this is a time that god has set aside for you to be
00:14:38.138 --> 00:14:39.539
Has set aside for you to be where you are,
00:14:39.606 --> 00:14:40.707
Where you are, and jesus is passing by.
00:14:40.774 --> 00:14:43.910
And jesus is passing by. [amen.]
00:14:43.977 --> 00:14:44.444
[amen.] this is no ordinary rabbi.
00:14:44.511 --> 00:14:46.112
This is no ordinary rabbi. this is jesus,
00:14:46.179 --> 00:14:47.414
This is jesus, who spoke the word
00:14:47.480 --> 00:14:48.648
Who spoke the word and healed the sick.
00:14:48.715 --> 00:14:50.016
And healed the sick. this is jesus,
00:14:50.083 --> 00:14:51.117
This is jesus, who stood outside the tomb
00:14:51.184 --> 00:14:52.452
Who stood outside the tomb of lazarus and said,
00:14:52.519 --> 00:14:53.853
Of lazarus and said, "come forth."
00:14:53.920 --> 00:14:54.688
"come forth." this is jesus,
00:14:54.754 --> 00:14:55.789
This is jesus, who broke the bread,
00:14:55.855 --> 00:14:56.923
Who broke the bread, and he blessed the fish,
00:14:56.990 --> 00:14:58.124
And he blessed the fish, and 5,000 families were fed.
00:14:58.191 --> 00:15:00.560
And 5,000 families were fed. i don't care how low you feel.
00:15:00.627 --> 00:15:03.196
I don't care how low you feel. i don't care what you're
00:15:03.263 --> 00:15:04.397
I don't care what you're walking through.
00:15:04.464 --> 00:15:05.532
Walking through. i don't care what kind of past
00:15:05.598 --> 00:15:07.434
I don't care what kind of past you have.
00:15:07.500 --> 00:15:08.301
You have. forget about those things
00:15:08.368 --> 00:15:09.536
Forget about those things that are behind you,
00:15:09.602 --> 00:15:10.737
That are behind you, and realize that right now,
00:15:10.804 --> 00:15:12.672
And realize that right now, right here in this sanctuary,
00:15:12.739 --> 00:15:15.041
Right here in this sanctuary, everything can change
00:15:15.108 --> 00:15:16.876
Everything can change because jesus is walking by.
00:15:16.943 --> 00:15:19.980
Because jesus is walking by. today, your past,
00:15:20.046 --> 00:15:21.381
Today, your past, he can erase.
00:15:21.448 --> 00:15:22.382
He can erase. today, that burden,
00:15:22.449 --> 00:15:23.683
Today, that burden, he can lift.
00:15:23.750 --> 00:15:24.651
He can lift. today, that mountain,
00:15:24.718 --> 00:15:25.952
Today, that mountain, he can move,
00:15:26.019 --> 00:15:26.953
He can move, because jesus christ,
00:15:27.020 --> 00:15:28.855
Because jesus christ, the mountain mover,
00:15:28.922 --> 00:15:30.156
The mountain mover, is walking by.
00:15:30.223 --> 00:15:31.658
Is walking by. shout for joy!
00:15:31.725 --> 00:15:33.326
Shout for joy! the god of miracles is
00:15:33.393 --> 00:15:34.694
The god of miracles is in this place!
00:15:34.761 --> 00:15:37.130
In this place! (applause)
00:15:37.197 --> 00:15:42.068
(applause) so bartimaeus hears that
00:15:42.135 --> 00:15:43.603
So bartimaeus hears that jesus is walking by.
00:15:43.670 --> 00:15:45.138
Jesus is walking by. and the first thing he does
00:15:45.205 --> 00:15:46.806
And the first thing he does in verse 38,
00:15:46.873 --> 00:15:47.741
In verse 38, the bible says,
00:15:47.807 --> 00:15:48.274
The bible says, "he cried out."
00:15:48.341 --> 00:15:50.543
"he cried out." now when you get into
00:15:50.610 --> 00:15:51.277
Now when you get into the text,
00:15:51.344 --> 00:15:51.911
The text, what it says is he yelled
00:15:51.978 --> 00:15:54.381
What it says is he yelled for help.
00:15:54.447 --> 00:15:56.049
For help. "help!"
00:15:56.116 --> 00:15:58.051
"help!" he went,
00:15:58.118 --> 00:15:58.752
He went, "jesus, son of david,
00:15:58.818 --> 00:16:01.621
"jesus, son of david, have mercy on me!"
00:16:01.688 --> 00:16:04.224
Have mercy on me!" and everybody who was around
00:16:04.290 --> 00:16:05.191
And everybody who was around him said,
00:16:05.258 --> 00:16:05.792
Him said, "shhh, be quiet,"
00:16:05.859 --> 00:16:07.293
"shhh, be quiet," "not today."
00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:09.195
"not today." and in verse 39,
00:16:09.262 --> 00:16:09.929
And in verse 39, it says, "he cried."
00:16:09.996 --> 00:16:11.131
It says, "he cried." but this time,
00:16:11.197 --> 00:16:11.664
But this time, it doesn't say he cried like
00:16:11.731 --> 00:16:12.832
It doesn't say he cried like he yelled for help.
00:16:12.899 --> 00:16:13.900
He yelled for help. this time it says,
00:16:13.967 --> 00:16:14.667
This time it says, "he shouted till he shook."
00:16:14.734 --> 00:16:17.604
"he shouted till he shook." do you know why?
00:16:17.670 --> 00:16:19.439
Do you know why? because he let that crowd
00:16:19.506 --> 00:16:20.440
Because he let that crowd know;
00:16:20.507 --> 00:16:21.041
Know; i'm not yelling at you.
00:16:21.107 --> 00:16:24.544
I'm not yelling at you. [amen.]
00:16:24.611 --> 00:16:25.145
[amen.] i am done asking you
00:16:25.211 --> 00:16:27.447
I am done asking you to help me.
00:16:27.514 --> 00:16:28.415
To help me. i'm done taking the crumbs
00:16:28.481 --> 00:16:30.583
I'm done taking the crumbs that you can give me.
00:16:30.650 --> 00:16:31.818
That you can give me. i'm done looking to you
00:16:31.885 --> 00:16:33.787
I'm done looking to you to fix me.
00:16:33.853 --> 00:16:34.821
To fix me. there's somebody in the room
00:16:34.888 --> 00:16:36.356
There's somebody in the room today who can change
00:16:36.423 --> 00:16:37.657
Today who can change everything in me.
00:16:37.724 --> 00:16:39.459
Everything in me. and if it bothers you that i'm
00:16:39.526 --> 00:16:41.461
And if it bothers you that i'm going to be noticed by him,
00:16:41.528 --> 00:16:43.296
Going to be noticed by him, hold my cup,
00:16:43.363 --> 00:16:44.664
Hold my cup, because i've got something
00:16:44.731 --> 00:16:45.665
Because i've got something i came to say.
00:16:45.732 --> 00:16:46.933
I came to say. "jesus, son of david,
00:16:47.000 --> 00:16:50.370
"jesus, son of david, have mercy on me!"
00:16:50.437 --> 00:16:54.474
Have mercy on me!" (applause)
00:16:54.541 --> 00:16:59.379
(applause) and when he yelled
00:16:59.446 --> 00:17:00.313
And when he yelled with everything he had,
00:17:00.380 --> 00:17:01.714
With everything he had, the bible says,
00:17:01.781 --> 00:17:02.482
The bible says, "jesus stood still."
00:17:02.549 --> 00:17:05.785
"jesus stood still." say that with me.
00:17:05.852 --> 00:17:06.786
Say that with me. "jesus stood still."
00:17:06.853 --> 00:17:10.423
"jesus stood still." [amen.]
00:17:10.490 --> 00:17:10.957
[amen.] when i read those words,
00:17:11.024 --> 00:17:11.925
When i read those words, it gripped me,
00:17:11.991 --> 00:17:14.561
It gripped me, because here we have the god
00:17:14.627 --> 00:17:16.763
Because here we have the god who holds the world
00:17:16.830 --> 00:17:17.764
Who holds the world in his hand.
00:17:17.831 --> 00:17:18.832
In his hand. and it says he stands still.
00:17:18.898 --> 00:17:22.302
And it says he stands still. it's as if everything stopped
00:17:22.368 --> 00:17:24.270
It's as if everything stopped all of time,
00:17:24.337 --> 00:17:25.205
All of time, all of heaven,
00:17:25.271 --> 00:17:26.106
All of heaven, all of earth.
00:17:26.172 --> 00:17:27.173
All of earth. when jesus stopped,
00:17:27.240 --> 00:17:28.575
When jesus stopped, it's as if everything said,
00:17:28.641 --> 00:17:29.709
It's as if everything said, "hold everything!
00:17:29.776 --> 00:17:34.180
"hold everything! that guy,
00:17:34.247 --> 00:17:36.416
That guy, he knows who i am."
00:17:36.483 --> 00:17:37.617
He knows who i am." [woo!]
00:17:37.684 --> 00:17:38.485
[woo!] [yes.]
00:17:38.551 --> 00:17:39.152
[yes.] [amen.]
00:17:39.219 --> 00:17:40.019
[amen.] he didn't just call me jesus.
00:17:40.086 --> 00:17:42.088
He didn't just call me jesus. he said i'm the son of david.
00:17:42.155 --> 00:17:44.390
He said i'm the son of david. [amen.]
00:17:44.457 --> 00:17:45.258
[amen.] he knows who i am.
00:17:45.325 --> 00:17:47.727
He knows who i am. bring him over here to me.
00:17:47.794 --> 00:17:50.063
Bring him over here to me. i need to talk to him.
00:17:50.130 --> 00:17:52.999
I need to talk to him. and in verse 41,
00:17:53.066 --> 00:17:53.833
And in verse 41, he says something that's
00:17:53.900 --> 00:17:54.734
He says something that's rather peculiar.
00:17:54.801 --> 00:17:55.902
Rather peculiar. and many people use it as
00:17:55.969 --> 00:17:57.370
And many people use it as an indictment against a god
00:17:57.437 --> 00:17:58.972
An indictment against a god who's not merciful.
00:17:59.038 --> 00:18:02.342
Who's not merciful. jesus says to bartimaeus,
00:18:02.408 --> 00:18:03.943
Jesus says to bartimaeus, "what do you want me to do
00:18:04.010 --> 00:18:05.111
"what do you want me to do for you?"
00:18:05.178 --> 00:18:07.714
For you?" and we hear words like that,
00:18:07.780 --> 00:18:08.882
And we hear words like that, and we think,
00:18:08.948 --> 00:18:09.315
And we think, what a ridiculous question.
00:18:09.382 --> 00:18:10.550
What a ridiculous question. this man's blind.
00:18:10.617 --> 00:18:11.551
This man's blind. of course, he wants to see.
00:18:11.618 --> 00:18:14.621
Of course, he wants to see. but what you need to
00:18:14.687 --> 00:18:15.221
But what you need to understand is that god is such
00:18:15.288 --> 00:18:17.957
Understand is that god is such a gracious god.
00:18:18.024 --> 00:18:19.058
A gracious god. he will not interfere
00:18:19.125 --> 00:18:20.727
He will not interfere in the circumstance
00:18:20.793 --> 00:18:21.694
In the circumstance until you invite him.
00:18:21.761 --> 00:18:23.396
Until you invite him. [that's right.]
00:18:23.463 --> 00:18:24.130
[that's right.] [yes.]
00:18:24.197 --> 00:18:25.632
[yes.] you see,
00:18:25.698 --> 00:18:26.166
You see, a lot of people get upset,
00:18:26.232 --> 00:18:27.233
A lot of people get upset, and they get angry
00:18:27.300 --> 00:18:28.034
And they get angry and frustrated with god
00:18:28.101 --> 00:18:28.968
And frustrated with god because they say, "well,
00:18:29.035 --> 00:18:29.736
Because they say, "well, if you're all knowing, god;
00:18:29.802 --> 00:18:30.737
If you're all knowing, god; and if you're all powerful,
00:18:30.803 --> 00:18:31.538
And if you're all powerful, god;
00:18:31.604 --> 00:18:32.138
God; and you see everything, god,
00:18:32.205 --> 00:18:33.640
And you see everything, god, then why don't you just fix it
00:18:33.706 --> 00:18:34.741
Then why don't you just fix it for me?"
00:18:34.807 --> 00:18:37.177
For me?" because until your mouth
00:18:37.243 --> 00:18:38.144
Because until your mouth opens up,
00:18:38.211 --> 00:18:39.045
Opens up, heaven stays closed up.
00:18:39.112 --> 00:18:40.880
Heaven stays closed up. [right.]
00:18:40.947 --> 00:18:42.148
[right.] (applause)
00:18:42.215 --> 00:18:48.488
(applause) he won't do it
00:18:48.555 --> 00:18:49.322
He won't do it until you ask him to.
00:18:49.389 --> 00:18:51.024
Until you ask him to. [amen.]
00:18:51.090 --> 00:18:51.958
[amen.] but when you ask him to,
00:18:52.025 --> 00:18:54.394
But when you ask him to, ask in faith believing,
00:18:54.460 --> 00:18:56.696
Ask in faith believing, and your blinded eyes
00:18:56.763 --> 00:18:57.664
And your blinded eyes will see.
00:18:57.730 --> 00:18:58.765
Will see. ask in faith believing,
00:18:58.831 --> 00:19:00.200
Ask in faith believing, and that sickness
00:19:00.266 --> 00:19:00.900
And that sickness and that disease will go away.
00:19:00.967 --> 00:19:02.602
And that disease will go away. ask in faith believing,
00:19:02.669 --> 00:19:04.370
Ask in faith believing, and suddenly,
00:19:04.437 --> 00:19:05.171
And suddenly, everything changes.
00:19:05.238 --> 00:19:06.339
Everything changes. why?
00:19:06.406 --> 00:19:06.773
Why? because you have invited
00:19:06.839 --> 00:19:07.840
Because you have invited the supernatural power
00:19:07.907 --> 00:19:09.075
The supernatural power of heaven to come down
00:19:09.142 --> 00:19:10.443
Of heaven to come down into this natural circumstance
00:19:10.510 --> 00:19:11.911
Into this natural circumstance here on earth.
00:19:11.978 --> 00:19:12.812
Here on earth. and what you could not do,
00:19:12.879 --> 00:19:14.113
And what you could not do, you now can do.
00:19:14.180 --> 00:19:15.281
You now can do. and who you could not be,
00:19:15.348 --> 00:19:16.382
And who you could not be, you now can be.
00:19:16.449 --> 00:19:17.684
You now can be. and what you needed,
00:19:17.750 --> 00:19:18.651
And what you needed, you now receive.
00:19:18.718 --> 00:19:19.652
You now receive. why?
00:19:19.719 --> 00:19:20.153
Why? because when jesus shows up
00:19:20.220 --> 00:19:22.155
Because when jesus shows up and his power moves in,
00:19:22.222 --> 00:19:23.723
And his power moves in, what you bind on earth,
00:19:23.790 --> 00:19:25.558
What you bind on earth, he'll bind in heaven.
00:19:25.625 --> 00:19:26.926
He'll bind in heaven. what you loose on earth,
00:19:26.993 --> 00:19:28.561
What you loose on earth, he'll loose in heaven.
00:19:28.628 --> 00:19:29.862
He'll loose in heaven. he's given you the keys to
00:19:29.929 --> 00:19:31.497
He's given you the keys to death, hell and the grave,
00:19:31.564 --> 00:19:33.032
Death, hell and the grave, to joy, to peace,
00:19:33.099 --> 00:19:34.234
To joy, to peace, and to victory.
00:19:34.300 --> 00:19:35.301
And to victory. why?
00:19:35.368 --> 00:19:35.935
Why? because he is king above kings
00:19:36.002 --> 00:19:37.637
Because he is king above kings and he's lord above lords!
00:19:37.704 --> 00:19:39.439
And he's lord above lords! call upon him,
00:19:39.505 --> 00:19:40.840
Call upon him, in jesus' name!
00:19:40.907 --> 00:19:42.942
In jesus' name! (applause)
00:19:43.009 --> 00:19:47.313
(applause) bartimaeus answers
00:19:47.380 --> 00:19:48.514
Bartimaeus answers the question.
00:19:48.581 --> 00:19:49.082
The question. he says,
00:19:49.148 --> 00:19:49.849
He says, "that i may receive my sight."
00:19:49.916 --> 00:19:55.888
"that i may receive my sight." now this is not just
00:19:55.955 --> 00:19:56.723
Now this is not just any request.
00:19:56.789 --> 00:20:00.727
Any request. bartimaeus is saying,
00:20:00.793 --> 00:20:01.828
Bartimaeus is saying, this one issue is the thing
00:20:01.894 --> 00:20:04.364
This one issue is the thing that keeps me from everything.
00:20:04.430 --> 00:20:07.734
That keeps me from everything. i'm broke and i have to beg
00:20:07.800 --> 00:20:09.969
I'm broke and i have to beg because i can't see.
00:20:10.036 --> 00:20:11.371
Because i can't see. and because i can't see,
00:20:11.437 --> 00:20:12.438
And because i can't see, i can't work.
00:20:12.505 --> 00:20:13.106
I can't work. if i get my sight back,
00:20:13.172 --> 00:20:14.207
If i get my sight back, i can go to work.
00:20:14.274 --> 00:20:17.810
I can go to work. i have no normal
00:20:17.877 --> 00:20:18.611
I have no normal relationships,
00:20:18.678 --> 00:20:19.479
Relationships, because everybody sees me
00:20:19.545 --> 00:20:21.147
Because everybody sees me as the guy who's always
00:20:21.214 --> 00:20:22.081
As the guy who's always asking for a handout.
00:20:22.148 --> 00:20:23.583
Asking for a handout. i don't have any real friends.
00:20:23.650 --> 00:20:24.951
I don't have any real friends. i just have people that come
00:20:25.018 --> 00:20:26.352
I just have people that come in and they steal from me
00:20:26.419 --> 00:20:27.854
In and they steal from me whenever we're counting
00:20:27.920 --> 00:20:28.788
Whenever we're counting the coins,
00:20:28.855 --> 00:20:29.322
The coins, because i can't see how many
00:20:29.389 --> 00:20:30.390
Because i can't see how many coins i've got.
00:20:30.456 --> 00:20:31.190
Coins i've got. they just take what they want
00:20:31.257 --> 00:20:32.492
They just take what they want and leave me the rest.
00:20:32.558 --> 00:20:36.729
And leave me the rest. not only do i have
00:20:36.796 --> 00:20:37.864
Not only do i have social problems
00:20:37.930 --> 00:20:38.665
Social problems and financial problems
00:20:38.731 --> 00:20:39.832
And financial problems because of this problem,
00:20:39.899 --> 00:20:41.100
Because of this problem, but i've got
00:20:41.167 --> 00:20:41.534
But i've got a spiritual problem,
00:20:41.601 --> 00:20:42.602
A spiritual problem, because back in leviticus 21,
00:20:42.669 --> 00:20:44.904
Because back in leviticus 21, god told moses that there's
00:20:44.971 --> 00:20:46.072
God told moses that there's a list of people who cannot go
00:20:46.139 --> 00:20:47.674
A list of people who cannot go into the temple.
00:20:47.740 --> 00:20:50.677
Into the temple. there's a list of people
00:20:50.743 --> 00:20:51.611
There's a list of people who cannot bring bread
00:20:51.678 --> 00:20:53.313
Who cannot bring bread to the lord.
00:20:53.379 --> 00:20:53.913
To the lord. there's a list of people
00:20:53.980 --> 00:20:54.714
There's a list of people who cannot sacrifice like
00:20:54.781 --> 00:20:56.249
Who cannot sacrifice like normal people,
00:20:56.316 --> 00:20:57.116
Normal people, and the blind are on
00:20:57.183 --> 00:20:58.584
And the blind are on that list.
00:20:58.651 --> 00:21:01.788
That list. bartimaeus is asking jesus;
00:21:01.854 --> 00:21:03.222
Bartimaeus is asking jesus; i don't want you to do
00:21:03.289 --> 00:21:03.990
I don't want you to do something for me,
00:21:04.057 --> 00:21:05.325
Something for me, because if you do something
00:21:05.391 --> 00:21:06.326
Because if you do something for me,
00:21:06.392 --> 00:21:06.893
For me, that'll change one thing.
00:21:06.959 --> 00:21:08.027
That'll change one thing. but if you do something in me,
00:21:08.094 --> 00:21:09.862
But if you do something in me, it changes everything.
00:21:09.929 --> 00:21:11.531
It changes everything. [amen.]
00:21:11.597 --> 00:21:12.732
[amen.] [amen.]
00:21:12.799 --> 00:21:13.866
[amen.] if i receive my sight,
00:21:13.933 --> 00:21:17.003
If i receive my sight, i can follow you.
00:21:17.070 --> 00:21:18.538
I can follow you. [yes.]
00:21:18.604 --> 00:21:19.339
[yes.] if i receive my sight,
00:21:19.405 --> 00:21:20.606
If i receive my sight, i can go where you go.
00:21:20.673 --> 00:21:22.909
I can go where you go. i can walk into the temple
00:21:22.975 --> 00:21:24.544
I can walk into the temple the same way you do.
00:21:24.610 --> 00:21:25.945
The same way you do. i can sacrifice with the joy
00:21:26.012 --> 00:21:28.047
I can sacrifice with the joy of the lord as my strength.
00:21:28.114 --> 00:21:29.449
Of the lord as my strength. if i receive my sight,
00:21:29.515 --> 00:21:30.950
If i receive my sight, i can be useful.
00:21:31.017 --> 00:21:32.018
I can be useful. if i receive my sight,
00:21:32.085 --> 00:21:33.419
If i receive my sight, i can serve you.
00:21:33.486 --> 00:21:34.520
I can serve you. lord, i don't want you to do
00:21:34.587 --> 00:21:35.688
Lord, i don't want you to do something for me today.
00:21:35.755 --> 00:21:37.290
Something for me today. i need you to do something
00:21:37.357 --> 00:21:38.491
I need you to do something in me today.
00:21:38.558 --> 00:21:39.392
In me today. and when you do,
00:21:39.459 --> 00:21:40.526
And when you do, change everything.
00:21:40.593 --> 00:21:43.029
Change everything. sometimes i think we come to
00:21:43.096 --> 00:21:44.030
Sometimes i think we come to god in prayer and we don't ask
00:21:44.097 --> 00:21:46.165
God in prayer and we don't ask for the right thing.
00:21:46.232 --> 00:21:48.835
For the right thing. we ask him to do something
00:21:48.901 --> 00:21:50.036
We ask him to do something simple.
00:21:50.103 --> 00:21:50.703
Simple. and what he wants to do
00:21:50.770 --> 00:21:51.738
And what he wants to do is change everything.
00:21:51.804 --> 00:21:54.874
Is change everything. you can have that same
00:21:54.941 --> 00:21:55.775
You can have that same experience today if you'll
00:21:55.842 --> 00:21:58.211
Experience today if you'll do what bartimaeus did,
00:21:58.277 --> 00:22:00.480
Do what bartimaeus did, open your mouth and ask.
00:22:00.546 --> 00:22:03.583
Open your mouth and ask. [amen.]
00:22:03.649 --> 00:22:04.283
[amen.] for jesus said in matthew 7,
00:22:04.350 --> 00:22:06.386
For jesus said in matthew 7, "ask, and you shall receive;
00:22:06.452 --> 00:22:10.490
"ask, and you shall receive; seek, and you shall find;
00:22:10.556 --> 00:22:13.393
Seek, and you shall find; knock, and the door shall be
00:22:13.459 --> 00:22:15.528
Knock, and the door shall be opened."
00:22:15.595 --> 00:22:17.597
Opened." and then my favorite part of
00:22:17.663 --> 00:22:18.564
And then my favorite part of that passage is this;
00:22:18.631 --> 00:22:20.466
That passage is this; it says, "for everyone --"
00:22:20.533 --> 00:22:22.268
It says, "for everyone --" say that with me.
00:22:22.335 --> 00:22:23.236
Say that with me. "for everyone."
00:22:23.302 --> 00:22:25.538
"for everyone." "everyone who asks."
00:22:25.605 --> 00:22:28.374
"everyone who asks." when the blind ask,
00:22:28.441 --> 00:22:30.076
When the blind ask, when the broken ask,
00:22:30.143 --> 00:22:31.711
When the broken ask, when the bound ask,
00:22:31.778 --> 00:22:33.346
When the bound ask, when the lowly ask,
00:22:33.413 --> 00:22:35.047
When the lowly ask, when the lost asks,
00:22:35.114 --> 00:22:36.783
When the lost asks, when the sinner asks,
00:22:36.849 --> 00:22:38.618
When the sinner asks, it doesn't matter who you are.
00:22:38.684 --> 00:22:40.119
It doesn't matter who you are. "when you ask,
00:22:40.186 --> 00:22:41.487
"when you ask, you shall receive."
00:22:41.554 --> 00:22:43.222
You shall receive." [yes.]
00:22:43.289 --> 00:22:43.756
[yes.] "when you seek him,
00:22:43.823 --> 00:22:44.690
"when you seek him, you will find him.
00:22:44.757 --> 00:22:45.992
You will find him. whenever you knock,
00:22:46.058 --> 00:22:47.427
Whenever you knock, the door will be opened,"
00:22:47.493 --> 00:22:49.128
The door will be opened," [yes.]
00:22:49.195 --> 00:22:50.163
[yes.] because god wants to hear
00:22:50.229 --> 00:22:52.398
Because god wants to hear from you.
00:22:52.465 --> 00:22:53.533
From you. [yes.]
00:22:53.599 --> 00:22:54.133
[yes.] jesus told the men who were
00:22:54.200 --> 00:22:55.601
Jesus told the men who were listening to him that day
00:22:55.668 --> 00:22:56.669
Listening to him that day about asking and receiving,
00:22:56.736 --> 00:22:58.037
About asking and receiving, seeking and finding;
00:22:58.104 --> 00:22:59.238
Seeking and finding; he said,
00:22:59.305 --> 00:22:59.806
He said, "if you, being evil,
00:22:59.872 --> 00:23:02.508
"if you, being evil, want to and know how to give
00:23:02.575 --> 00:23:04.510
Want to and know how to give good things to your children,
00:23:04.577 --> 00:23:07.447
Good things to your children, how much more will god
00:23:07.513 --> 00:23:10.283
How much more will god your father in heaven
00:23:10.349 --> 00:23:12.385
Your father in heaven give to those who ask him."
00:23:12.452 --> 00:23:14.787
