Pastor matt hagee: john 5
00:00:15.341 --> 00:00:17.944
Pastor matt hagee: john 5 tells us very quickly
00:00:18.011 --> 00:00:19.179
Tells us very quickly and clearly,
00:00:19.245 --> 00:00:20.080
And clearly, the power of belief
00:00:20.146 --> 00:00:22.115
The power of belief and the danger of unbelief.
00:00:22.182 --> 00:00:25.452
And the danger of unbelief. you have to understand that
00:00:25.518 --> 00:00:26.786
You have to understand that there are consequences to both.
00:00:26.853 --> 00:00:30.256
There are consequences to both. and truly, in this world,
00:00:30.323 --> 00:00:31.524
And truly, in this world, it really doesn't matter
00:00:31.591 --> 00:00:32.392
It really doesn't matter what the topic is,
00:00:32.459 --> 00:00:33.426
What the topic is, there's only
00:00:33.493 --> 00:00:33.993
There's only two types of people.
00:00:34.060 --> 00:00:35.095
Two types of people. there are
00:00:35.161 --> 00:00:35.662
There are believers and nonbelievers.
00:00:35.728 --> 00:00:38.965
Believers and nonbelievers. and when you make your decision
00:00:39.032 --> 00:00:40.166
And when you make your decision about whether you believe
00:00:40.233 --> 00:00:41.234
About whether you believe or you don't believe,
00:00:41.301 --> 00:00:42.235
Or you don't believe, the next thing that
00:00:42.302 --> 00:00:43.002
The next thing that will happen is your behaviors
00:00:43.069 --> 00:00:44.571
Will happen is your behaviors will be based
00:00:44.637 --> 00:00:45.472
Will be based on what you believe.
00:00:45.538 --> 00:00:48.374
On what you believe. 1 john 5 describes these
00:00:48.441 --> 00:00:50.510
1 john 5 describes these two types of people:
00:00:50.577 --> 00:00:52.679
Two types of people: he who believes and he
00:00:52.745 --> 00:00:55.115
He who believes and he who does not believe.
00:00:55.181 --> 00:00:59.219
Who does not believe. just as there are those two
00:00:59.285 --> 00:01:00.286
Just as there are those two types of people in this chapter,
00:01:00.353 --> 00:01:02.889
Types of people in this chapter, there's only two types
00:01:02.956 --> 00:01:03.556
There's only two types of people in this room.
00:01:03.623 --> 00:01:04.991
Of people in this room. there's only two types of people
00:01:05.058 --> 00:01:06.292
There's only two types of people who are watching today.
00:01:06.359 --> 00:01:07.527
Who are watching today. doesn't matter where
00:01:07.594 --> 00:01:08.294
Doesn't matter where you're watching from,
00:01:08.361 --> 00:01:09.229
You're watching from, how far you are
00:01:09.295 --> 00:01:10.130
How far you are from this sanctuary.
00:01:10.196 --> 00:01:11.297
From this sanctuary. there's only two kinds:
00:01:11.364 --> 00:01:12.999
There's only two kinds: believers and nonbelievers.
00:01:13.066 --> 00:01:16.302
Believers and nonbelievers. you can't tell me,
00:01:16.369 --> 00:01:17.337
You can't tell me, "well, i'm figuring it out.
00:01:17.403 --> 00:01:18.505
"well, i'm figuring it out. give me some time.
00:01:18.571 --> 00:01:19.372
Give me some time. it's a process."
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:20.140
It's a process." no, its not a process,
00:01:20.206 --> 00:01:21.141
No, its not a process, it's a decision.
00:01:21.207 --> 00:01:21.941
It's a decision. you're either in or you're out.
00:01:22.008 --> 00:01:25.645
You're either in or you're out. and here's what the bible
00:01:25.712 --> 00:01:26.579
And here's what the bible has to say about believers.
00:01:26.646 --> 00:01:29.649
Has to say about believers. 1 john 5, it says,
00:01:29.716 --> 00:01:31.451
1 john 5, it says, "believers have a testimony."
00:01:31.518 --> 00:01:34.621
"believers have a testimony." it says,
00:01:34.687 --> 00:01:35.088
It says, "there is a witness
00:01:35.155 --> 00:01:35.955
"there is a witness within them."
00:01:36.022 --> 00:01:37.891
Within them." 1 john 5:10,
00:01:37.957 --> 00:01:39.325
1 john 5:10, "he who believes in the son
00:01:39.392 --> 00:01:41.094
"he who believes in the son of god has
00:01:41.161 --> 00:01:42.295
Of god has the witness in himself."
00:01:42.362 --> 00:01:45.865
The witness in himself." that's powerful,
00:01:45.932 --> 00:01:47.600
That's powerful, especially when you understand
00:01:47.667 --> 00:01:48.801
Especially when you understand who the witness is.
00:01:48.868 --> 00:01:50.837
Who the witness is. hebrews 4 calls him
00:01:50.904 --> 00:01:52.872
Hebrews 4 calls him a great high priest.
00:01:52.939 --> 00:01:54.274
A great high priest. his name is jesus,
00:01:54.340 --> 00:01:55.775
His name is jesus, the son of the living god.
00:01:55.842 --> 00:01:57.610
The son of the living god. he makes it possible
00:01:57.677 --> 00:01:59.145
He makes it possible for you and i to go boldly
00:01:59.212 --> 00:02:01.514
For you and i to go boldly into the throne room
00:02:01.581 --> 00:02:02.916
Into the throne room and find grace and mercy
00:02:02.982 --> 00:02:04.851
And find grace and mercy in our hour of need
00:02:04.918 --> 00:02:06.152
In our hour of need according to hebrews 4:15-16.
00:02:06.219 --> 00:02:09.255
According to hebrews 4:15-16. i have a testimony today
00:02:09.322 --> 00:02:11.224
I have a testimony today and his name is jesus.
00:02:11.291 --> 00:02:12.926
And his name is jesus. because i believe in him,
00:02:12.992 --> 00:02:15.094
Because i believe in him, he's up in heavenly places
00:02:15.161 --> 00:02:16.563
He's up in heavenly places right now talking about
00:02:16.629 --> 00:02:17.997
Right now talking about me down here on earth.
00:02:18.064 --> 00:02:19.899
Me down here on earth. his word says that his blood
00:02:19.966 --> 00:02:22.502
His word says that his blood speaks a better word.
00:02:22.569 --> 00:02:23.970
Speaks a better word. what does that mean?
00:02:24.037 --> 00:02:24.971
What does that mean? what i don't know, he does.
00:02:25.038 --> 00:02:26.906
What i don't know, he does. what i can't do, he can.
00:02:26.973 --> 00:02:28.975
What i can't do, he can. so, right now,
00:02:29.042 --> 00:02:30.310
So, right now, he's up in heavenly places
00:02:30.376 --> 00:02:31.511
He's up in heavenly places talking about battles
00:02:31.578 --> 00:02:33.246
Talking about battles that i haven't fought,
00:02:33.313 --> 00:02:34.414
That i haven't fought, but he's already gonna
00:02:34.480 --> 00:02:35.348
But he's already gonna give me the victory.
00:02:35.415 --> 00:02:36.382
Give me the victory. talking about mountains
00:02:36.449 --> 00:02:37.784
Talking about mountains that i haven't climbed,
00:02:37.850 --> 00:02:38.985

00:02:39.052 --> 00:02:39.619
But he's already gonna move them.
00:02:39.686 --> 00:02:40.453
Gonna move them. talking about problems
00:02:40.520 --> 00:02:42.188
Talking about problems i haven't solved,
00:02:42.255 --> 00:02:42.922
I haven't solved, but he's already
00:02:42.989 --> 00:02:43.623
But he's already got the solution.
00:02:43.690 --> 00:02:44.791
Got the solution. he's already binding whatever
00:02:44.857 --> 00:02:46.626
He's already binding whatever the enemy has put
00:02:46.693 --> 00:02:47.827
The enemy has put in front of me.
00:02:47.894 --> 00:02:48.628
In front of me. he's already blessing
00:02:48.695 --> 00:02:49.929
He's already blessing whatever i put my hands to.
00:02:49.996 --> 00:02:51.664
Whatever i put my hands to. he's already doing more
00:02:51.731 --> 00:02:52.899
He's already doing more than i can ask,
00:02:52.966 --> 00:02:53.833
Than i can ask, think, or imagine.
00:02:53.900 --> 00:02:55.068
Think, or imagine. why?
00:02:55.134 --> 00:02:55.868
Why? because i believe.
00:02:55.935 --> 00:02:57.237
[applause]
00:02:57.971 --> 00:03:02.976
That's powerful.
00:03:03.443 --> 00:03:06.179
That's powerful. but go read the rest
00:03:06.246 --> 00:03:06.879
But go read the rest of the verse.
00:03:06.946 --> 00:03:09.482
Of the verse. and it's dangerous
00:03:09.549 --> 00:03:10.383
And it's dangerous for nonbelievers.
00:03:10.450 --> 00:03:13.019
For nonbelievers. 1 john 5:10,
00:03:13.086 --> 00:03:14.454
1 john 5:10, "he who does not believe
00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:17.123
"he who does not believe has made him a liar."
00:03:17.190 --> 00:03:20.860
Has made him a liar." when you don't believe
00:03:20.927 --> 00:03:22.795
When you don't believe god at his word,
00:03:22.862 --> 00:03:24.697
God at his word, you're looking up into heavenly
00:03:24.764 --> 00:03:25.965
You're looking up into heavenly places and you're not going
00:03:26.032 --> 00:03:27.066
Places and you're not going boldly into the throne room.
00:03:27.133 --> 00:03:28.401
Boldly into the throne room. you're saying,
00:03:28.468 --> 00:03:28.968
You're saying, "god, i don't --
00:03:29.035 --> 00:03:30.069
"god, i don't -- i think you're a liar.
00:03:30.136 --> 00:03:32.939
I think you're a liar. i don't believe you."
00:03:33.006 --> 00:03:36.009
I don't believe you." now, i know we've got
00:03:36.075 --> 00:03:36.943
Now, i know we've got several states and several
00:03:37.010 --> 00:03:39.145
Several states and several nations watching,
00:03:39.212 --> 00:03:41.214
Nations watching, but i'm gonna take you down
00:03:41.281 --> 00:03:42.081
But i'm gonna take you down to texas for a little while.
00:03:42.148 --> 00:03:45.151
To texas for a little while. where i grew up in texas,
00:03:45.218 --> 00:03:46.352
Where i grew up in texas, if you had the courage
00:03:46.419 --> 00:03:47.487
If you had the courage to call somebody a liar,
00:03:47.553 --> 00:03:50.456
To call somebody a liar, you better enter into
00:03:50.523 --> 00:03:51.624
You better enter into the laying of hands ministry
00:03:51.691 --> 00:03:53.826
The laying of hands ministry pretty quick because
00:03:53.893 --> 00:03:56.596
Pretty quick because around these parts,
00:03:56.663 --> 00:03:57.730
Around these parts, we call those fighting words.
00:03:57.797 --> 00:04:01.668
We call those fighting words. and what happens whenever you
00:04:01.734 --> 00:04:02.935
And what happens whenever you choose to not believe in god,
00:04:03.002 --> 00:04:06.706
Choose to not believe in god, you do not have the testimony
00:04:06.773 --> 00:04:08.541
You do not have the testimony that the believer has.
00:04:08.608 --> 00:04:10.576
That the believer has. when you refuse
00:04:10.643 --> 00:04:11.344
When you refuse to believe in god,
00:04:11.411 --> 00:04:12.312
To believe in god, when you refuse to take god
00:04:12.378 --> 00:04:13.646
When you refuse to take god at his word,
00:04:13.713 --> 00:04:14.480
At his word, when you refuse to believe that
00:04:14.547 --> 00:04:16.082
When you refuse to believe that jesus christ is the son of god,
00:04:16.149 --> 00:04:19.185
Jesus christ is the son of god, it's just like you saying,
00:04:19.252 --> 00:04:20.186
It's just like you saying, "god, you're lying."
00:04:20.253 --> 00:04:23.056
"god, you're lying." and when you
00:04:23.122 --> 00:04:23.656
And when you call god a liar,
00:04:23.723 --> 00:04:24.624
Call god a liar, you don't qualify
00:04:24.691 --> 00:04:25.558
You don't qualify for the blessings that
00:04:25.625 --> 00:04:26.392
For the blessings that the bible has for you.
00:04:26.459 --> 00:04:28.895
The bible has for you. "god, i don't believe
00:04:28.961 --> 00:04:29.862
"god, i don't believe what you said about,
00:04:29.929 --> 00:04:30.763
What you said about, 'ask and you shall receive,'
00:04:30.830 --> 00:04:32.265
'ask and you shall receive,' so i'm not gonna ask."
00:04:32.332 --> 00:04:33.833
So i'm not gonna ask." well, guess what?
00:04:33.900 --> 00:04:34.467
Well, guess what? then you won't receive.
00:04:34.534 --> 00:04:36.069
Then you won't receive. "god, i don't believe
00:04:36.135 --> 00:04:37.070
"god, i don't believe what you said about,
00:04:37.136 --> 00:04:37.870
What you said about, 'give and it shall
00:04:37.937 --> 00:04:38.604
'give and it shall be given unto you,'
00:04:38.671 --> 00:04:39.205
Be given unto you,' so i'm not gonna give."
00:04:39.272 --> 00:04:40.206
So i'm not gonna give." well, guess what?
00:04:40.273 --> 00:04:40.940
Well, guess what? you don't get pressed down,
00:04:41.007 --> 00:04:42.208
You don't get pressed down, shaken together,
00:04:42.275 --> 00:04:42.875
Shaken together, and running over until
00:04:42.942 --> 00:04:43.776
And running over until you're obedient
00:04:43.843 --> 00:04:44.644
You're obedient to do what his word said.
00:04:44.711 --> 00:04:47.847
To do what his word said. "god, i don't believe what you
00:04:47.914 --> 00:04:48.614
"god, i don't believe what you said about the prayer of faith
00:04:48.681 --> 00:04:49.849
Said about the prayer of faith will save the sick
00:04:49.916 --> 00:04:50.583
Will save the sick and the lord will raise him up,
00:04:50.650 --> 00:04:51.718
And the lord will raise him up, so i'm not gonna call
00:04:51.784 --> 00:04:52.719
So i'm not gonna call for the elders of the church,
00:04:52.785 --> 00:04:53.686
For the elders of the church, and i'm not gonna be
00:04:53.753 --> 00:04:54.554
And i'm not gonna be anointed with oil,
00:04:54.620 --> 00:04:55.388
Anointed with oil, and i'm not gonna pray
00:04:55.455 --> 00:04:56.255
And i'm not gonna pray over my sickness."
00:04:56.322 --> 00:04:57.156
Over my sickness." well, guess what?
00:04:57.223 --> 00:04:57.857
Well, guess what? you get to keep sickness.
00:04:57.924 --> 00:05:02.261
You get to keep sickness. whenever you don't
00:05:02.328 --> 00:05:02.929
Whenever you don't believe in god,
00:05:02.995 --> 00:05:04.163
Believe in god, you don't tarnish his majesty,
00:05:04.230 --> 00:05:06.432
You don't tarnish his majesty, you don't pull him
00:05:06.499 --> 00:05:07.567
You don't pull him off the throne,
00:05:07.633 --> 00:05:08.534
Off the throne, you don't make him try
00:05:08.601 --> 00:05:10.136
You don't make him try to come down here and prove
00:05:10.203 --> 00:05:11.671
To come down here and prove himself to you.
00:05:11.738 --> 00:05:12.705
Himself to you. what you do when you don't
00:05:12.772 --> 00:05:14.073
What you do when you don't believe in god is you disqualify
00:05:14.140 --> 00:05:16.142
Believe in god is you disqualify yourself from receiving anything
00:05:16.209 --> 00:05:18.344
Yourself from receiving anything that god has for you
00:05:18.411 --> 00:05:20.780
That god has for you and that's dangerous.
00:05:20.847 --> 00:05:23.716
And that's dangerous. how dangerous is it?
00:05:23.783 --> 00:05:25.118
How dangerous is it? 1 john 5:12.
00:05:25.184 --> 00:05:26.819
1 john 5:12. it says,
00:05:26.886 --> 00:05:27.387
It says, "he who has the son,"
00:05:27.453 --> 00:05:29.622
"he who has the son," which means you believe,
00:05:29.689 --> 00:05:31.624
Which means you believe, "has life."
00:05:31.691 --> 00:05:34.427
"has life." and then it says,
00:05:34.494 --> 00:05:35.061
And then it says, "he who does not have the son,
00:05:35.128 --> 00:05:37.397
"he who does not have the son, who does not believe,
00:05:37.463 --> 00:05:39.165
Who does not believe, does not have life."
00:05:39.232 --> 00:05:41.601
Does not have life." you'd better believe it,
00:05:41.667 --> 00:05:44.036
You'd better believe it, because it's a matter
00:05:44.103 --> 00:05:44.804
Because it's a matter of life and death.
00:05:44.871 --> 00:05:48.274
Of life and death. it's not enough
00:05:48.341 --> 00:05:49.008
It's not enough to say you believe,
00:05:49.075 --> 00:05:50.309
To say you believe, he expects you to behave
00:05:50.376 --> 00:05:52.412
He expects you to behave like you believe.
00:05:52.478 --> 00:05:55.081
Like you believe. this is one of the challenges
00:05:55.148 --> 00:05:56.048
This is one of the challenges we face in our lives.
00:05:56.115 --> 00:05:58.918
We face in our lives. what we say,
00:05:58.985 --> 00:05:59.952
What we say, we often don't do.
00:06:00.019 --> 00:06:01.187
We often don't do. and until your behavior
00:06:01.254 --> 00:06:02.655
And until your behavior and your beliefs line up,
00:06:02.722 --> 00:06:04.056
And your beliefs line up, then you yourself are deceived.
00:06:04.123 --> 00:06:10.596
Then you yourself are deceived. here's what the bible
00:06:10.663 --> 00:06:11.230
Here's what the bible says in malachi 3:6.
00:06:11.297 --> 00:06:14.167
Says in malachi 3:6. "i am the lord,
00:06:14.233 --> 00:06:14.934
"i am the lord, i do not change."
00:06:15.001 --> 00:06:17.637
I do not change." and some people wanna say,
00:06:17.703 --> 00:06:18.404
And some people wanna say, "well, that's god, the father."
00:06:18.471 --> 00:06:19.772
"well, that's god, the father." but here's what it says
00:06:19.839 --> 00:06:20.606
But here's what it says in hebrews 13:8,
00:06:20.673 --> 00:06:22.208
In hebrews 13:8, "jesus christ
00:06:22.275 --> 00:06:24.444
"jesus christ is the same yesterday,
00:06:24.510 --> 00:06:27.146
Is the same yesterday, today, and forever."
00:06:27.213 --> 00:06:30.416
Today, and forever." so, if they don't change,
00:06:30.483 --> 00:06:32.819
So, if they don't change, then you need to understand
00:06:32.885 --> 00:06:34.153
Then you need to understand the commitment that
00:06:34.220 --> 00:06:34.987
The commitment that he required of his disciples
00:06:35.054 --> 00:06:36.522
He required of his disciples around the sea of galilee
00:06:36.589 --> 00:06:37.857
Around the sea of galilee is the same commitment
00:06:37.924 --> 00:06:39.058
Is the same commitment that he requires
00:06:39.125 --> 00:06:39.826
That he requires of cornerstone church
00:06:39.892 --> 00:06:40.660
Of cornerstone church here this morning.
00:06:40.726 --> 00:06:42.929
Here this morning. we're at a very dangerous
00:06:42.995 --> 00:06:43.863
We're at a very dangerous time in church history.
00:06:43.930 --> 00:06:45.531
Time in church history. this is the laodicean era.
00:06:45.598 --> 00:06:47.667
This is the laodicean era. this is the time when
00:06:47.733 --> 00:06:48.935
This is the time when the church is neither hot,
00:06:49.001 --> 00:06:50.770
The church is neither hot, meaning that they'll
00:06:50.837 --> 00:06:51.337
Meaning that they'll take a stand,
00:06:51.404 --> 00:06:52.605
Take a stand, nor are they cold,
00:06:52.672 --> 00:06:53.840
Nor are they cold, meaning that they don't wanna
00:06:53.906 --> 00:06:55.508
Meaning that they don't wanna endorse the dark side.
00:06:55.575 --> 00:06:57.677
Endorse the dark side. we just wanna stay
00:06:57.743 --> 00:06:58.211
We just wanna stay right in the middle.
00:06:58.277 --> 00:07:00.179
Right in the middle. but jesus said,
00:07:00.246 --> 00:07:00.880
But jesus said, "because you're neither,
00:07:00.947 --> 00:07:02.982
"because you're neither, you're not hot,
00:07:03.049 --> 00:07:03.850
You're not hot, you're not for me,
00:07:03.916 --> 00:07:05.084
You're not for me, and you're not cold,
00:07:05.151 --> 00:07:05.785
And you're not cold, you're not against me.
00:07:05.852 --> 00:07:06.953
You're not against me. i'm gonna spew you
00:07:07.019 --> 00:07:08.054
I'm gonna spew you out of my mouth."
00:07:08.120 --> 00:07:09.021
[applause]
00:07:10.690 --> 00:07:13.659
And what you need to understand
00:07:14.060 --> 00:07:14.861
And what you need to understand is that we live in a world
00:07:14.927 --> 00:07:16.395
Is that we live in a world where people who call
00:07:16.462 --> 00:07:17.163
Where people who call themselves christians
00:07:17.230 --> 00:07:18.231
Themselves christians and followers of christ,
00:07:18.297 --> 00:07:19.398
And followers of christ, they want to adjust
00:07:19.465 --> 00:07:21.067
They want to adjust the unadjustable.
00:07:21.133 --> 00:07:22.101
The unadjustable. they want to expand
00:07:22.168 --> 00:07:23.769
They want to expand the solid rock that
00:07:23.836 --> 00:07:24.971
The solid rock that is a standard of truth.
00:07:25.037 --> 00:07:27.273
Is a standard of truth. they want to evolve
00:07:27.340 --> 00:07:28.608
They want to evolve what cannot be broken.
00:07:28.674 --> 00:07:31.744
What cannot be broken. read what the bible says,
00:07:31.811 --> 00:07:33.145
Read what the bible says, "the grass may wither
00:07:33.212 --> 00:07:34.480
"the grass may wither and the flower may fade,
00:07:34.547 --> 00:07:36.015
And the flower may fade, but the word of the lord,
00:07:36.082 --> 00:07:37.483
But the word of the lord, it endures forever."
00:07:37.550 --> 00:07:39.752
It endures forever." jesus said,
00:07:39.819 --> 00:07:40.386
Jesus said, "heaven and earth will
00:07:40.453 --> 00:07:41.153
"heaven and earth will pass away but my word will,
00:07:41.220 --> 00:07:43.289
Pass away but my word will, by no means, pass away."
00:07:43.356 --> 00:07:44.690
By no means, pass away." he settled the argument when,
00:07:44.757 --> 00:07:46.158
He settled the argument when, in john 17,
00:07:46.225 --> 00:07:47.360
In john 17, he said,
00:07:47.426 --> 00:07:47.960
He said, "your word,
00:07:48.027 --> 00:07:48.961
"your word, oh lord, is truth."
00:07:49.028 --> 00:07:52.231
Oh lord, is truth." church, you have to understand
00:07:52.298 --> 00:07:54.166
Church, you have to understand that this book is still
00:07:54.233 --> 00:07:55.535
That this book is still the standard of truth
00:07:55.601 --> 00:07:56.669
The standard of truth in heaven above,
00:07:56.736 --> 00:07:57.803
In heaven above, and it should be
00:07:57.870 --> 00:07:58.671
And it should be in your life today.
00:07:58.738 --> 00:07:59.839
In your life today. i don't care what
00:07:59.906 --> 00:08:00.907
I don't care what the world says has changed,
00:08:00.973 --> 00:08:02.842
The world says has changed, my god will not change.
00:08:02.909 --> 00:08:04.710
My god will not change. not now, not ever.
00:08:04.777 --> 00:08:06.145
Not now, not ever. he is the same yesterday,
00:08:06.212 --> 00:08:07.980
He is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
00:08:08.047 --> 00:08:09.215
Today, and forever. generation to generation,
00:08:09.282 --> 00:08:11.050
Generation to generation, this truth endures
00:08:11.117 --> 00:08:12.285
This truth endures when everything else fails.
00:08:12.351 --> 00:08:13.586
[applause]
00:08:14.053 --> 00:08:18.324
When you look at the power
00:08:18.824 --> 00:08:19.692
When you look at the power of believing in his word
00:08:19.759 --> 00:08:21.227
Of believing in his word and you begin
00:08:21.294 --> 00:08:21.794
And you begin to behave like you believe,
00:08:21.861 --> 00:08:23.763
To behave like you believe, then the bible says whatever
00:08:23.829 --> 00:08:25.131
Then the bible says whatever you ask in faith,
00:08:25.197 --> 00:08:26.699
You ask in faith, you'll have it.
00:08:26.766 --> 00:08:28.601
You'll have it. jesus said,
00:08:28.668 --> 00:08:29.101
Jesus said, "whatever you bind
00:08:29.168 --> 00:08:30.469
"whatever you bind will be bound.
00:08:30.536 --> 00:08:31.837
Will be bound. whatever you loose,
00:08:31.904 --> 00:08:32.905
Whatever you loose, will be loosed."
00:08:32.972 --> 00:08:34.507
Will be loosed." he told the disciples,
00:08:34.574 --> 00:08:35.341
He told the disciples, "when you speak to a mountain,
00:08:35.408 --> 00:08:36.943
"when you speak to a mountain, it'll be cast into the sea
00:08:37.009 --> 00:08:38.644
It'll be cast into the sea because all things are possible
00:08:38.711 --> 00:08:41.213
Because all things are possible to them that believe."
00:08:41.280 --> 00:08:43.983
To them that believe." now, on the contrary,
00:08:44.050 --> 00:08:46.085
Now, on the contrary, nothing is available
00:08:46.152 --> 00:08:47.253
Nothing is available to the doubter.
00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:49.322
To the doubter. nothing is available
00:08:49.388 --> 00:08:50.222
Nothing is available to the nonbeliever
00:08:50.289 --> 00:08:51.123
To the nonbeliever or the skeptic.
00:08:51.190 --> 00:08:52.959
Or the skeptic. james 1:6-7 says,
00:08:53.025 --> 00:08:55.161
James 1:6-7 says, "he who doubts is like a wave
00:08:55.227 --> 00:08:56.596
"he who doubts is like a wave that's tossed by the wind.
00:08:56.662 --> 00:08:58.397
That's tossed by the wind. he'll receive nothing.
00:08:58.464 --> 00:09:02.034
He'll receive nothing. he's double minded
00:09:02.101 --> 00:09:02.969
He's double minded and unstable in all
00:09:03.035 --> 00:09:04.103
And unstable in all of his ways."
00:09:04.170 --> 00:09:06.005
Of his ways." why is he double minded?
00:09:06.072 --> 00:09:07.106
Why is he double minded? because with his mouth,
00:09:07.173 --> 00:09:08.140
Because with his mouth, he says he believes,
00:09:08.207 --> 00:09:09.308
He says he believes, but with his behavior,
00:09:09.375 --> 00:09:10.376
But with his behavior, he doesn't believe.
00:09:10.443 --> 00:09:13.546
He doesn't believe. with his mouth,
00:09:13.613 --> 00:09:14.080
With his mouth, he speaks faith,
00:09:14.146 --> 00:09:15.181
He speaks faith, but with his actions,
00:09:15.247 --> 00:09:17.183
But with his actions, he doesn't act in faith.
00:09:17.249 --> 00:09:19.318
He doesn't act in faith. so, he's got two minds
00:09:19.385 --> 00:09:20.486
So, he's got two minds and god says,
00:09:20.553 --> 00:09:21.153
And god says, "i'm not gonna endorse
00:09:21.220 --> 00:09:22.021
"i'm not gonna endorse that kind of behavior.
00:09:22.088 --> 00:09:22.855
That kind of behavior. you get nothing."
00:09:22.922 --> 00:09:25.391
You get nothing." when you ask god for something
00:09:25.458 --> 00:09:26.959
When you ask god for something and don't believe
00:09:27.026 --> 00:09:27.860
And don't believe that god is able,
00:09:27.927 --> 00:09:28.861
That god is able, you make god try and prove
00:09:28.928 --> 00:09:30.630
You make god try and prove himself when he's already
00:09:30.696 --> 00:09:31.831
Himself when he's already done enough to do that.
00:09:31.897 --> 00:09:35.401
Done enough to do that. read what matthew 13:58 says.
00:09:35.468 --> 00:09:40.339
Read what matthew 13:58 says. it says that jesus
00:09:40.406 --> 00:09:41.073
It says that jesus was in a certain place
00:09:41.140 --> 00:09:43.909
Was in a certain place and he could not
00:09:43.976 --> 00:09:44.543
And he could not do mighty works there
00:09:44.610 --> 00:09:47.013
Do mighty works there because of their unbelief.
00:09:47.079 --> 00:09:51.350
Because of their unbelief. it doesn't say that jesus
00:09:51.417 --> 00:09:52.518
It doesn't say that jesus was in a certain place
00:09:52.585 --> 00:09:53.586
Was in a certain place and jesus was having
00:09:53.653 --> 00:09:54.487
And jesus was having an off day
00:09:54.553 --> 00:09:55.655
An off day so he couldn't do anything.
00:09:55.721 --> 00:09:58.157
So he couldn't do anything. it says that the power
00:09:58.224 --> 00:09:59.392
It says that the power and the presence of the miracle
00:09:59.458 --> 00:10:00.559
And the presence of the miracle working son of god,
00:10:00.626 --> 00:10:01.861
Working son of god, the word made flesh
00:10:01.927 --> 00:10:02.895
The word made flesh was at a certain place,
00:10:02.962 --> 00:10:04.397
Was at a certain place, but the word made flesh
00:10:04.463 --> 00:10:05.398
But the word made flesh could not do anything
00:10:05.464 --> 00:10:07.333
Could not do anything because the people
00:10:07.400 --> 00:10:08.401
Because the people who were there with him
00:10:08.467 --> 00:10:09.235
Who were there with him didn't believe in him.
00:10:09.301 --> 00:10:11.504
Didn't believe in him. how many times has
00:10:11.570 --> 00:10:12.505
How many times has he come into our lives?
00:10:12.571 --> 00:10:14.240
He come into our lives? how many times has
00:10:14.306 --> 00:10:15.307
How many times has he come into our circumstance?
00:10:15.374 --> 00:10:16.809
He come into our circumstance? how many times has
00:10:16.876 --> 00:10:18.110
How many times has he been there with us,
00:10:18.177 --> 00:10:19.078
He been there with us, and it wasn't that
00:10:19.145 --> 00:10:20.212
And it wasn't that he could not bless us,
00:10:20.279 --> 00:10:21.547
He could not bless us, it's that our unbelief kept
00:10:21.614 --> 00:10:22.915
It's that our unbelief kept him from being the blessing
00:10:22.982 --> 00:10:24.316
Him from being the blessing that god sent him to be.
00:10:24.383 --> 00:10:26.819
That god sent him to be. there are times when his
00:10:26.886 --> 00:10:27.620
There are times when his spirit and his
00:10:27.687 --> 00:10:28.421
Spirit and his power are present,
00:10:28.487 --> 00:10:29.622
Power are present, and yet it's our unbelief
00:10:29.689 --> 00:10:31.257
And yet it's our unbelief that keeps him from achieving
00:10:31.323 --> 00:10:32.658
That keeps him from achieving what needs to be done.
00:10:32.725 --> 00:10:34.527
What needs to be done. you cannot ask god
00:10:34.593 --> 00:10:36.462
You cannot ask god to prove himself.
00:10:36.529 --> 00:10:37.797
To prove himself. he has already done it time
00:10:37.863 --> 00:10:40.166
He has already done it time and time and time again.
00:10:40.232 --> 00:10:42.001
And time and time again. you have to believe god
00:10:42.068 --> 00:10:44.003
You have to believe god and believe him here
00:10:44.070 --> 00:10:46.138
And believe him here and believe him now.

[applause]
00:11:49.301 --> 00:11:52.138
You see, your natural mind,
00:11:52.538 --> 00:11:53.606
You see, your natural mind, the one that is conformed
00:11:53.672 --> 00:11:54.673
The one that is conformed to the world, it says,
00:11:54.740 --> 00:11:55.841
To the world, it says, "i'll believe it when i see it."
00:11:55.908 --> 00:11:59.078
"i'll believe it when i see it." but your transformed mind says,
00:11:59.145 --> 00:12:00.646
But your transformed mind says, "i'll believe it
00:12:00.713 --> 00:12:02.114
"i'll believe it and then i'll see it."
00:12:02.181 --> 00:12:04.583
And then i'll see it." how do you behave
00:12:04.650 --> 00:12:05.885
How do you behave in your waiting season?
00:12:05.951 --> 00:12:09.088
In your waiting season? how do you act between
00:12:09.155 --> 00:12:11.257
How do you act between the time that
00:12:11.323 --> 00:12:11.991
The time that god has promised it
00:12:12.057 --> 00:12:13.726
God has promised it and its arrival?
00:12:13.793 --> 00:12:16.095
And its arrival? you'd better behave like you
00:12:16.162 --> 00:12:17.296
You'd better behave like you believe it because that's where
00:12:17.363 --> 00:12:20.466
Believe it because that's where the miracle comes from.
00:12:20.533 --> 00:12:24.270
The miracle comes from. it doesn't come because
00:12:24.336 --> 00:12:27.106
It doesn't come because god said it,
00:12:27.173 --> 00:12:28.307
God said it, and you're gonna sit there
00:12:28.374 --> 00:12:29.742
And you're gonna sit there and just doubt it
00:12:29.809 --> 00:12:31.010
And just doubt it until it shows up.
00:12:31.076 --> 00:12:34.079
Until it shows up. our expectations
00:12:34.146 --> 00:12:35.548
Our expectations create in us either
00:12:35.614 --> 00:12:37.449
Create in us either the willingness to endure
00:12:37.516 --> 00:12:41.253
The willingness to endure or the frustration to quit.
00:12:41.320 --> 00:12:45.624
Or the frustration to quit. if you expect it to come,
00:12:45.691 --> 00:12:47.526
If you expect it to come, then you endure.
00:12:47.593 --> 00:12:51.096
Then you endure. but if you expect it to arrive,
00:12:51.163 --> 00:12:54.366
But if you expect it to arrive, you're disappointed
00:12:54.433 --> 00:12:55.201
You're disappointed when it's not here.
00:12:55.267 --> 00:12:57.970
When it's not here. have you ever gotten one
00:12:58.037 --> 00:12:58.938
Have you ever gotten one of those notices that says,
00:12:59.004 --> 00:12:59.905
Of those notices that says, "your package
00:12:59.972 --> 00:13:00.806
"your package has been delivered,"
00:13:00.873 --> 00:13:04.009
Has been delivered," but you know for a fact
00:13:04.076 --> 00:13:06.378
But you know for a fact it's not delivered.
00:13:06.445 --> 00:13:08.914
It's not delivered. and the reason you know
00:13:08.981 --> 00:13:09.715
And the reason you know it's not delivered is because
00:13:09.782 --> 00:13:10.783
It's not delivered is because you're standing at the delivery
00:13:10.850 --> 00:13:12.017
You're standing at the delivery place and your phone says.
00:13:12.084 --> 00:13:15.120
[buzzing]
00:13:15.421 --> 00:13:15.888

"your package is delivered." and you're going,
00:13:16.956 --> 00:13:17.289
And you're going, "no, it's not."
00:13:17.356 --> 00:13:21.727
"no, it's not." you're disappointed because
00:13:21.794 --> 00:13:24.129
You're disappointed because what you expected hasn't
00:13:24.196 --> 00:13:25.297
What you expected hasn't arrived on your schedule.
00:13:25.364 --> 00:13:27.733
Arrived on your schedule. now, if you didn't have the app,
00:13:27.800 --> 00:13:30.736
Now, if you didn't have the app, you'd be thrilled
00:13:30.803 --> 00:13:33.172
You'd be thrilled whenever it showed up.
00:13:33.239 --> 00:13:36.242
Whenever it showed up. because you have sent a message
00:13:36.308 --> 00:13:38.310
Because you have sent a message to someone that
00:13:38.377 --> 00:13:39.245
To someone that you've never seen,
00:13:39.311 --> 00:13:41.647
You've never seen, with personal financial

With personal financial information that you
00:13:42.681 --> 00:13:43.616
Information that you shouldn't give,
00:13:43.682 --> 00:13:47.219
Shouldn't give, to an undisclosed location
00:13:47.286 --> 00:13:48.787
To an undisclosed location that you don't know
00:13:48.854 --> 00:13:49.555
That you don't know where it is.
00:13:49.622 --> 00:13:52.157
Where it is. "oh, it's made in america."
00:13:52.224 --> 00:13:53.392
"oh, it's made in america." which universe?
00:13:53.459 --> 00:13:54.927
[laughter]
00:13:55.327 --> 00:13:56.428
'cause if you ever
00:13:57.363 --> 00:13:57.930

00:13:59.798 --> 00:14:00.866
[applause]
00:14:01.901 --> 00:14:06.305
And when you think about
00:14:09.475 --> 00:14:10.209
And when you think about all of the unknowns that
00:14:10.276 --> 00:14:11.543
All of the unknowns that you've engaged in,
00:14:11.610 --> 00:14:12.511
You've engaged in, you should be thrilled when
00:14:12.578 --> 00:14:16.482
You should be thrilled when that $47 lip gloss shows up.
00:14:16.548 --> 00:14:19.251
[laughter]
00:14:19.718 --> 00:14:21.620
I'm not talking about you,
00:14:22.521 --> 00:14:23.255
I'm not talking about you, i'm talking about
00:14:23.322 --> 00:14:23.789
I'm talking about people you know.
00:14:23.856 --> 00:14:24.556
[laughter]
00:14:24.957 --> 00:14:26.558
By the way,
00:14:27.626 --> 00:14:28.160
By the way, i don't wear lip gloss.
00:14:28.227 --> 00:14:28.928
[laughter]
00:14:29.795 --> 00:14:32.531
But because what you
00:14:33.832 --> 00:14:34.667
But because what you expected or what you were
00:14:34.733 --> 00:14:36.402
Expected or what you were prompted to believe would be
00:14:36.468 --> 00:14:37.870
Prompted to believe would be here on a certain date,
00:14:37.937 --> 00:14:39.071
Here on a certain date, at a certain hour,
00:14:39.138 --> 00:14:39.838
At a certain hour, at a certain time,
00:14:39.905 --> 00:14:40.673
At a certain time, and it's not there,
00:14:40.739 --> 00:14:41.774
And it's not there, now you're frustrated,
00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:43.275
Now you're frustrated, now someone's failed you,
00:14:43.342 --> 00:14:44.910
Now someone's failed you, now someone's let you down.
00:14:44.977 --> 00:14:46.845
Now someone's let you down. well, you do the same thing when
00:14:46.912 --> 00:14:48.314
Well, you do the same thing when you put god on your calendar.
00:14:48.380 --> 00:14:53.218
You put god on your calendar. and god says,
00:14:53.285 --> 00:14:53.819
And god says, "just endure.
00:14:53.886 --> 00:14:56.221
"just endure. have enough expectancy to know
00:14:56.288 --> 00:14:57.856
Have enough expectancy to know that i will not tell you a lie.
00:14:57.923 --> 00:15:00.726
That i will not tell you a lie. believe with all of your heart,
00:15:00.793 --> 00:15:01.994
Believe with all of your heart, with all of your soul,
00:15:02.061 --> 00:15:02.761
With all of your soul, with all of your mind,
00:15:02.828 --> 00:15:03.462
With all of your mind, with all of your strength."
00:15:03.529 --> 00:15:06.432
With all of your strength." some people want to know
00:15:06.498 --> 00:15:07.499
Some people want to know what god's promises
00:15:07.566 --> 00:15:08.467
What god's promises are for their life.
00:15:08.534 --> 00:15:09.201
Are for their life. well, let's talk about
00:15:09.268 --> 00:15:10.035
Well, let's talk about some general promises before
00:15:10.102 --> 00:15:11.837
Some general promises before we talk about specific promises
00:15:11.904 --> 00:15:15.107
We talk about specific promises because your faith has got
00:15:15.174 --> 00:15:16.608
Because your faith has got to engage at some level.
00:15:16.675 --> 00:15:18.978
To engage at some level. and when you don't believe
00:15:19.044 --> 00:15:19.878
And when you don't believe in his general promises,
00:15:19.945 --> 00:15:21.080
In his general promises, god won't share with you
00:15:21.146 --> 00:15:22.181
God won't share with you the specific promises.
00:15:22.247 --> 00:15:25.084
The specific promises. look at a general promise that
00:15:25.150 --> 00:15:26.552
Look at a general promise that he gives to all of his children,
00:15:26.618 --> 00:15:27.586
He gives to all of his children, matthew 28:20.
00:15:27.653 --> 00:15:29.188
Matthew 28:20. he says,
00:15:29.254 --> 00:15:29.755
He says, "i am with you always,
00:15:29.822 --> 00:15:32.858
"i am with you always, even to the ends of the age."
00:15:32.925 --> 00:15:35.461
Even to the ends of the age." now, if jesus cannot tell a lie,
00:15:35.527 --> 00:15:37.096
Now, if jesus cannot tell a lie, if he is the truth,
00:15:37.162 --> 00:15:38.831
If he is the truth, and he says,
00:15:38.897 --> 00:15:39.398
And he says, "i'm with you always,"
00:15:39.465 --> 00:15:41.000
"i'm with you always," how many of you know
00:15:41.066 --> 00:15:41.867
How many of you know that that means
00:15:41.934 --> 00:15:42.701
That that means he's with you always?
00:15:42.768 --> 00:15:46.005
He's with you always? but if you behaved
00:15:46.071 --> 00:15:46.772
But if you behaved like you believed it,
00:15:46.839 --> 00:15:47.573
Like you believed it, would you do the things
00:15:47.639 --> 00:15:48.307
Would you do the things you always do?
00:15:48.374 --> 00:15:50.209
You always do? would you go the places
00:15:50.275 --> 00:15:51.043
Would you go the places you always go?
00:15:51.110 --> 00:15:51.944
You always go? would you say
00:15:52.011 --> 00:15:52.511
Would you say the things you always say?
00:15:52.578 --> 00:15:54.580
The things you always say? would you act
00:15:54.646 --> 00:15:55.180
Would you act the way you always act?
00:15:55.247 --> 00:15:57.116
The way you always act? when you go through
00:15:57.182 --> 00:15:57.616
When you go through troubles and trials,
00:15:57.683 --> 00:15:58.917
Troubles and trials, would you throw up your hands
00:15:58.984 --> 00:16:00.219
Would you throw up your hands and feel like you're abandoned?
00:16:00.285 --> 00:16:02.921
And feel like you're abandoned? he's with you always.
00:16:02.988 --> 00:16:05.958
He's with you always. even in the doctor's office
00:16:06.025 --> 00:16:07.426
Even in the doctor's office when you don't get the report
00:16:07.493 --> 00:16:08.494
When you don't get the report that you wanted,
00:16:08.560 --> 00:16:09.061
That you wanted, he's with you always.
00:16:09.128 --> 00:16:11.597
He's with you always. even when you walk through
00:16:11.663 --> 00:16:12.564
Even when you walk through a season of sorrow
00:16:12.631 --> 00:16:13.799
A season of sorrow and it's not the outcome
00:16:13.866 --> 00:16:14.900
And it's not the outcome that you expected,
00:16:14.967 --> 00:16:15.768

Arm wrapped around you. whenever the doctor tells you,

But we don't always act like he's there.
00:16:59.545 --> 00:17:01.914

You'd better have your oil lamp full because when

Now, those are general promises.
00:18:14.086 --> 00:18:17.623
Now, those are general promises. and many of us want god
00:18:17.689 --> 00:18:18.624
And many of us want god to give us specific details.
00:18:18.690 --> 00:18:21.627
To give us specific details. he's not gonna give you specific
00:18:21.693 --> 00:18:23.095
He's not gonna give you specific details until you prove you
00:18:23.162 --> 00:18:24.463
Details until you prove you believe in what
00:18:24.530 --> 00:18:25.097

With you because in doing so, you exercise your faith.
00:18:35.440 --> 00:18:37.776
You exercise your faith. romans 12:3, it says that,
00:18:37.843 --> 00:18:40.979
Romans 12:3, it says that, "god has dealt to each of us
00:18:41.046 --> 00:18:42.748
"god has dealt to each of us a measure of faith."
00:18:42.814 --> 00:18:44.983
A measure of faith." that means that he's given
00:18:45.050 --> 00:18:46.151
That means that he's given all of us a portion of faith
00:18:46.218 --> 00:18:49.254
All of us a portion of faith and it's our job
00:18:49.321 --> 00:18:50.255
And it's our job to work with it.
00:18:50.322 --> 00:18:52.958
To work with it. when you work with faith,
00:18:53.025 --> 00:18:54.193
When you work with faith, when you act in faith,
00:18:54.259 --> 00:18:55.427
When you act in faith, when you believe in faith,
00:18:55.494 --> 00:18:56.762
When you believe in faith, when you pray in faith,
00:18:56.828 --> 00:18:58.297
When you pray in faith, when you read the word
00:18:58.363 --> 00:18:59.464
When you read the word of god in faith,
00:18:59.531 --> 00:19:00.799
Of god in faith, you are exercising your faith
00:19:00.866 --> 00:19:02.868
You are exercising your faith and it grows.
00:19:02.935 --> 00:19:05.604
And it grows. and as your faith grows,
00:19:05.671 --> 00:19:07.172
And as your faith grows, you have the ability
00:19:07.239 --> 00:19:08.407
You have the ability to believe god for more.
00:19:08.473 --> 00:19:12.611
To believe god for more. consider this church.
00:19:12.678 --> 00:19:15.013
Consider this church. when this church started
00:19:15.080 --> 00:19:16.315
When this church started just a few miles from here
00:19:16.381 --> 00:19:17.649
Just a few miles from here in a living room
00:19:17.716 --> 00:19:18.650
In a living room with just a few families,
00:19:18.717 --> 00:19:21.019
With just a few families, what we had faith for was that
00:19:21.086 --> 00:19:23.822
What we had faith for was that we would be able
00:19:23.889 --> 00:19:24.456
We would be able to go from where we were
00:19:24.523 --> 00:19:26.024
To go from where we were to a few folks.
00:19:26.091 --> 00:19:28.360
To a few folks. and then once we got
00:19:28.427 --> 00:19:29.161
And then once we got a few folks,
00:19:29.228 --> 00:19:29.928
A few folks, we believed for a room
00:19:29.995 --> 00:19:31.196
We believed for a room full of folks.
00:19:31.263 --> 00:19:31.964
Full of folks. and then once we got
00:19:32.030 --> 00:19:32.731
And then once we got a room full of folks,
00:19:32.798 --> 00:19:33.465
A room full of folks, we believed for a sanctuary
00:19:33.532 --> 00:19:34.566
We believed for a sanctuary full of folks.
00:19:34.633 --> 00:19:35.334
Full of folks. and then once we got
00:19:35.400 --> 00:19:36.134
And then once we got a sanctuary full of folks,
00:19:36.201 --> 00:19:37.336
A sanctuary full of folks, we believed for a larger
00:19:37.402 --> 00:19:38.570
We believed for a larger sanctuary full of folks.
00:19:38.637 --> 00:19:39.738
Sanctuary full of folks. and now, we sit in a sanctuary
00:19:39.805 --> 00:19:41.540
And now, we sit in a sanctuary that seats thousands
00:19:41.607 --> 00:19:42.741
That seats thousands and we're talking to a hundred
00:19:42.808 --> 00:19:43.675
And we're talking to a hundred and twenty nations
00:19:43.742 --> 00:19:44.343
And twenty nations around the world.
00:19:44.409 --> 00:19:45.310
Around the world. why?
00:19:45.377 --> 00:19:46.078
Why? not because 60 something
00:19:46.144 --> 00:19:47.746
Not because 60 something years ago,
00:19:47.813 --> 00:19:48.580
Years ago, the decision was made,
00:19:48.647 --> 00:19:49.781
The decision was made, "this is where we would end up,"
00:19:49.848 --> 00:19:51.116
"this is where we would end up," but we grew to this,
00:19:51.183 --> 00:19:52.718
But we grew to this, exercising our faith
00:19:52.784 --> 00:19:54.519
Exercising our faith and believing in a god who said,
00:19:54.586 --> 00:19:56.255
And believing in a god who said, "all things are possible
00:19:56.321 --> 00:19:58.223
"all things are possible to those who believe."
00:19:58.290 --> 00:19:59.258
[applause]
00:19:59.625 --> 00:20:05.430
Things that are exercising

Things that are exercising are growing,
00:20:08.400 --> 00:20:09.034
Are growing, they're getting stronger.
00:20:09.101 --> 00:20:10.102
They're getting stronger. if your future is not growing
00:20:10.168 --> 00:20:12.204
If your future is not growing and getting stronger,
00:20:12.271 --> 00:20:13.138
And getting stronger, you need to go find some faith.
00:20:13.205 --> 00:20:18.143
You need to go find some faith. you grow your faith
00:20:18.210 --> 00:20:20.646
You grow your faith when you read the word of god,
00:20:20.712 --> 00:20:21.980
When you read the word of god, romans 10:17,
00:20:22.047 --> 00:20:23.115
Romans 10:17, it says,
00:20:23.181 --> 00:20:23.615
It says, "faith comes by
00:20:23.682 --> 00:20:24.283

How much of this word are you reading?
00:20:39.398 --> 00:20:41.533
Are you reading? or is it only read to you?
00:20:41.600 --> 00:20:44.736
Or is it only read to you? how much of this word are you
00:20:44.803 --> 00:20:46.138
How much of this word are you meditating on and speaking?
00:20:46.204 --> 00:20:49.174
Meditating on and speaking? because you better believe
00:20:49.241 --> 00:20:50.108
Because you better believe what god told joshua.

00:20:53.245 --> 00:20:55.814
On it day and night, and you shall speak it,
00:20:55.881 --> 00:20:58.950
And you shall speak it, and it shall proceed
00:20:59.017 --> 00:20:59.851
And it shall proceed out of your mouth,
00:20:59.918 --> 00:21:00.585
Out of your mouth, and whatever you do,
00:21:00.652 --> 00:21:03.121
And whatever you do, you will have success."
00:21:03.188 --> 00:21:05.757
You will have success." when you begin to read,
00:21:05.824 --> 00:21:06.758
When you begin to read, and hear,
00:21:06.825 --> 00:21:07.326
And hear, and saturate your life
00:21:07.392 --> 00:21:08.460

On sunday and then you spend the rest of your week
00:21:14.833 --> 00:21:15.534
The rest of your week saturated with the doubters
00:21:15.600 --> 00:21:16.935
Saturated with the doubters and the skeptics of this world,
00:21:17.002 --> 00:21:18.337
And the skeptics of this world, your faith starts to shrink.
00:21:18.403 --> 00:21:21.940
Your faith starts to shrink. you can't wash off
00:21:22.007 --> 00:21:22.774
You can't wash off in a 90 minute service
00:21:22.841 --> 00:21:24.376
In a 90 minute service what they're gonna put
00:21:24.443 --> 00:21:25.143
What they're gonna put on you in 6 days.
00:21:25.210 --> 00:21:27.913

Faith starts to grow, you'll see god start
00:21:33.452 --> 00:21:34.419
You'll see god start to move mountains
00:21:34.486 --> 00:21:35.387
To move mountains of impossibility.
00:21:35.454 --> 00:21:37.989
Of impossibility. which means that the one thing
00:21:38.056 --> 00:21:39.091
Which means that the one thing that you have to truly
00:21:39.157 --> 00:21:40.025
That you have to truly develop is your

Your willingness to endure. you can't do it once

And expect everything to be there all at once.
00:21:51.203 --> 00:21:54.539
To be there all at once. and if there's a problem
00:21:54.606 --> 00:21:55.407
And if there's a problem that we have
00:21:55.474 --> 00:21:55.941
That we have in our modern world,
00:21:56.007 --> 00:21:56.808
In our modern world, it's that we don't
00:21:56.875 --> 00:21:58.009
It's that we don't like to endure,
00:21:58.076 --> 00:21:59.077
Like to endure, we don't like to wait.
00:21:59.144 --> 00:22:02.247

00:22:04.416 --> 00:22:05.584
Celebrate your patience, you ain't that patient.

I've never seen anybody walk into a "waiting room" --
00:22:10.355 --> 00:22:12.224
Walk into a "waiting room" -- what a terrible word
00:22:12.290 --> 00:22:14.993
What a terrible word to put on the door.
00:22:15.060 --> 00:22:15.694
To put on the door. "waiting room," what?
00:22:15.761 --> 00:22:18.063
"waiting room," what? i don't want a waiting room,
00:22:18.130 --> 00:22:19.264
I don't want a waiting room, i want a "go through" room.
00:22:19.331 --> 00:22:20.232
[laughter]
00:22:20.599 --> 00:22:22.768
You walk into a waiting
00:22:23.268 --> 00:22:23.869
You walk into a waiting room and they say,
00:22:23.935 --> 00:22:24.770
Room and they say, "we're running behind today."
00:22:24.836 --> 00:22:26.538
"we're running behind today." and you go,
00:22:26.605 --> 00:22:26.938
And you go, "oh, praise god.
00:22:27.005 --> 00:22:28.173
[laughter]
00:22:28.607 --> 00:22:29.408

I'm so thankful. i just love sitting
00:22:31.676 --> 00:22:33.011
I just love sitting around and doing nothing.
00:22:33.078 --> 00:22:34.246
[laughter]
00:22:34.946 --> 00:22:35.781

00:22:36.348 --> 00:22:38.683
Hallelujah." no.

No. you may not say what

You may not say what you're thinking,
00:22:41.753 --> 00:22:42.421
You're thinking, but you ain't
00:22:42.487 --> 00:22:42.954
But you ain't thinking, "hallelujah."
00:22:43.021 --> 00:22:47.125
Thinking, "hallelujah." and what we do as christians
00:22:47.192 --> 00:22:48.326
And what we do as christians is we want everything
00:22:48.393 --> 00:22:49.661
Is we want everything to be like a push
00:22:49.728 --> 00:22:50.695
To be like a push of an easy button.
00:22:50.762 --> 00:22:53.064
Of an easy button. "god, i need your provision,
00:22:53.131 --> 00:22:54.299
"god, i need your provision, so i'm gonna give once.
00:22:54.366 --> 00:22:57.135
So i'm gonna give once. god, i need your hand to move,
00:22:57.202 --> 00:22:58.603
God, i need your hand to move, i'm gonna pray once.
00:22:58.670 --> 00:23:01.006
I'm gonna pray once. god, i need everything
00:23:01.072 --> 00:23:02.441
God, i need everything in my life that's been wrong
00:23:02.507 --> 00:23:03.675
In my life that's been wrong for decades to get fixed
00:23:03.742 --> 00:23:04.743
For decades to get fixed in a day so i'm gonna
00:23:04.810 --> 00:23:06.178
In a day so i'm gonna believe once."
00:23:06.244 --> 00:23:08.847
Believe once." but that's not how god works.
00:23:08.914 --> 00:23:09.781
But that's not how god works. god says,
00:23:09.848 --> 00:23:10.749
God says, "endure hardness
00:23:10.816 --> 00:23:11.917
"endure hardness as a good soldier,"
00:23:11.983 --> 00:23:12.451
As a good soldier," that's what paul
00:23:12.517 --> 00:23:13.084
That's what paul told timothy.
00:23:13.151 --> 00:23:16.388
Told timothy. the promise that comes to those
00:23:16.455 --> 00:23:17.622
The promise that comes to those who endure is those who endure
00:23:17.689 --> 00:23:18.957
Who endure is those who endure to the end,
00:23:19.024 --> 00:23:19.724
To the end, the same shall be saved.
00:23:19.791 --> 00:23:23.862
The same shall be saved. so, you have to be ready
00:23:23.929 --> 00:23:24.763
So, you have to be ready to do it more than once.
00:23:24.830 --> 00:23:25.897
To do it more than once. you have to be willing
00:23:25.964 --> 00:23:26.798
You have to be willing to endure day in,
00:23:26.865 --> 00:23:28.133
To endure day in, day out, year in,
00:23:28.200 --> 00:23:29.167
Day out, year in, year out,
00:23:29.234 --> 00:23:29.901
Year out, decade in, decade out
00:23:29.968 --> 00:23:31.603
Decade in, decade out because it's through

Because it's through your faithful endurance
00:23:32.304 --> 00:23:33.271
Your faithful endurance that god says,
00:23:33.338 --> 00:23:34.005
That god says, "there's somebody
00:23:34.072 --> 00:23:34.739
"there's somebody i can believe in."
00:23:34.806 --> 00:23:37.209
I can believe in." god wants you to put

God wants you to put your belief in him,
00:23:38.109 --> 00:23:39.344
Your belief in him, and by putting
00:23:39.411 --> 00:23:40.111
And by putting your belief in him,
00:23:40.178 --> 00:23:41.179
Your belief in him, you prove through your endurance
00:23:41.246 --> 00:23:42.380
You prove through your endurance that god can believe in you.
00:23:42.447 --> 00:23:45.851
That god can believe in you. he's looking for somebody
00:23:45.917 --> 00:23:46.384
He's looking for somebody that says,
00:23:46.451 --> 00:23:46.885
That says, "god, i don't care how
00:23:46.952 --> 00:23:47.752
"god, i don't care how long i have to wait.
00:23:47.819 --> 00:23:49.688
Long i have to wait. if you said it,
00:23:49.754 --> 00:23:50.455
If you said it, that settles it.
00:23:50.522 --> 00:23:52.357
That settles it. i don't care how big
00:23:52.424 --> 00:23:53.291
I don't care how big the need is,
00:23:53.358 --> 00:23:54.292
The need is, you're bigger than the need.
00:23:54.359 --> 00:23:56.294
You're bigger than the need. i don't care about the problem,
00:23:56.361 --> 00:23:58.129
I don't care about the problem, you're the god
00:23:58.196 --> 00:23:58.697
You're the god who solves problems."
00:23:58.763 --> 00:24:01.466
Who solves problems." you see, it's not
00:24:01.533 --> 00:24:02.367
You see, it's not a moment by moment
00:24:02.434 --> 00:24:03.869
A moment by moment type of thing.
00:24:03.935 --> 00:24:04.569
Type of thing. it's not an easy button
00:24:04.636 --> 00:24:05.670
It's not an easy button that you push,
00:24:05.737 --> 00:24:06.505
That you push, it's a mountain
00:24:06.571 --> 00:24:07.239
It's a mountain that you decide to climb,
00:24:07.305 --> 00:24:08.773
That you decide to climb, and the higher you climb,
00:24:08.840 --> 00:24:10.008
And the higher you climb, the more faithful he gets.
00:24:10.075 --> 00:24:11.376
The more faithful he gets. the farther you go,
00:24:11.443 --> 00:24:12.544
The farther you go, the better he is.
00:24:12.611 --> 00:24:13.545

00:24:14.546 --> 00:24:15.447
To take a step, even if it hurts
00:24:15.514 --> 00:24:16.248
Even if it hurts with everything that's in you,
00:24:16.314 --> 00:24:17.649
With everything that's in you, god says,
00:24:17.716 --> 00:24:18.683
God says, "i'm the god who will meet
00:24:18.750 --> 00:24:20.051
"i'm the god who will meet you at the top and we're going
00:24:20.118 --> 00:24:21.920
You at the top and we're going to see my plan come to pass

Kind of courage, whenever you're

Whenever you're willing to endure,
00:24:27.492 --> 00:24:28.693
Willing to endure, whenever you begin to move
