Joseph Prince | Joseph Prince - The Hidden Burden Destroying Your Life | May 6, 2026
  • Joseph prince: long before the devil try to produce
  • 00:00:13.122 --> 00:00:14.523
  • A disease or sickness in your life,
  • 00:00:14.656 --> 00:00:16.625
  • You know what he does?
  • 00:00:16.758 --> 00:00:17.960
  • He produces depression, sorrow of the world.
  • 00:00:18.060 --> 00:00:18.827
  • But then jesus, listen, jesus at the cross,
  • 00:00:22.664 --> 00:00:25.667
  • He carried that depression that you feel at night,
  • 00:00:25.667 --> 00:00:29.371
  • When you think that no one knows,
  • 00:00:29.371 --> 00:00:31.140
  • You feel all alone, but you feel like the whole room
  • 00:00:31.140 --> 00:00:33.408
  • Is getting dark.
  • 00:00:33.408 --> 00:00:34.743
  • Jesus carried that.
  • 00:00:34.743 --> 00:00:37.446
  • He carried your exceeding sorrowful--
  • 00:00:37.446 --> 00:00:41.016
  • That feeling like killing yourself--even unto death.
  • 00:00:41.016 --> 00:00:44.219
  • That's the love that he has for us.
  • 00:00:44.219 --> 00:00:47.456
  • Something happened.
  • 00:00:47.456 --> 00:00:48.790
  • He's no longer jesus the king,
  • 00:00:48.790 --> 00:00:55.597
  • Jesus the good shepherd, right,
  • 00:00:55.597 --> 00:01:00.402
  • That watch over his--
  • 00:01:00.402 --> 00:01:02.037
  • Now he's become jesus the lamb of god.
  • 00:01:02.037 --> 00:01:04.740
  • The shepherd has become the lamb.
  • 00:01:04.740 --> 00:01:07.543
  • So, it is our sins that he's carrying,
  • 00:01:07.543 --> 00:01:09.845
  • It is our curse that he bore,
  • 00:01:09.845 --> 00:01:11.847
  • It is our sorrow that afflicted him.
  • 00:01:11.847 --> 00:01:16.618
  • He felt the pain of it, the weight of it,
  • 00:01:16.618 --> 00:01:18.720
  • But especially if you are jesus--
  • 00:01:18.720 --> 00:01:21.523
  • We can't imagine, because all of us,
  • 00:01:21.523 --> 00:01:23.425
  • Our minds are defiled, dirty, and we think it's natural.
  • 00:01:23.425 --> 00:01:26.762
  • For the son of god, he never experienced sin one time.
  • 00:01:26.762 --> 00:01:31.099
  • The very thought of sin, he shudders.
  • 00:01:31.099 --> 00:01:34.069
  • It's not in his nature.
  • 00:01:34.069 --> 00:01:37.039
  • But to think that just the contemplation
  • 00:01:37.039 --> 00:01:40.375
  • That in a few hours he'll be on the cross.
  • 00:01:40.375 --> 00:01:42.744
  • It's like, almost like he take the cup,
  • 00:01:42.744 --> 00:01:45.147
  • The cup that symbolized all the judgment
  • 00:01:45.147 --> 00:01:47.482
  • And the condemnation, all our uncleanness
  • 00:01:47.482 --> 00:01:49.751
  • And all that.
  • 00:01:49.751 --> 00:01:51.086
  • He pushed it aside.
  • 00:01:51.086 --> 00:01:52.454
  • "father, it's possible! take this cup from me!"
  • 00:01:52.454 --> 00:01:53.855
  • In the book of hebrews, he cried with strong crying
  • 00:01:53.855 --> 00:01:57.926
  • Because you should know the nature of our lord jesus.
  • 00:01:57.926 --> 00:02:02.698
  • But he saw you, he saw you, he saw you, he saw you,
  • 00:02:02.698 --> 00:02:09.571
  • He saw you, he saw me.
  • 00:02:09.571 --> 00:02:12.741
  • And his--"father, if it's not possible,
  • 00:02:12.741 --> 00:02:15.611
  • There's no other way, not my will,
  • 00:02:15.611 --> 00:02:18.880
  • But your will be done."
  • 00:02:18.880 --> 00:02:20.749
  • And he drank it to its very dregs.
  • 00:02:20.749 --> 00:02:24.186
  • Male announcer: picture a world where fear
  • 00:02:24.253 --> 00:02:25.587
  • Doesn't get the last word,
  • 00:02:25.587 --> 00:02:27.256
  • Where every day starts with courage, confidence,
  • 00:02:27.256 --> 00:02:30.259
  • And unshakable peace.
  • 00:02:30.259 --> 00:02:32.427

  • And now here is pastor joseph prince
  • 00:03:00.956 --> 00:03:03.325
  • With today's program.
  • 00:03:03.325 --> 00:03:04.693
  • Joseph prince: the lord put this on my heart
  • 00:03:04.760 --> 00:03:06.061
  • And then about people suffering this darkness
  • 00:03:06.061 --> 00:03:11.066
  • That isaiah talks about.
  • 00:03:11.066 --> 00:03:12.401
  • It's gonna happen in the last days.
  • 00:03:12.401 --> 00:03:13.735
  • Darkness covers the people.
  • 00:03:13.735 --> 00:03:15.370
  • It is not physical, the kind of physical darkness.
  • 00:03:15.370 --> 00:03:17.539
  • It is depression, gloom.
  • 00:03:17.539 --> 00:03:20.542
  • The world gets the dark-- but it is--it--you know,
  • 00:03:20.542 --> 00:03:23.011
  • People who describe themselves as having depression,
  • 00:03:23.011 --> 00:03:26.348
  • It's like the world becomes dark,
  • 00:03:26.348 --> 00:03:29.851
  • It's like they step into a room,
  • 00:03:29.851 --> 00:03:31.186
  • It's a bright room,
  • 00:03:31.186 --> 00:03:32.521
  • But all of a sudden the room becomes--
  • 00:03:32.521 --> 00:03:33.855
  • It's like nighttime.
  • 00:03:33.855 --> 00:03:35.190
  • That's how they describe it.
  • 00:03:35.190 --> 00:03:36.591
  • They're suffering from depression.
  • 00:03:36.591 --> 00:03:37.926
  • "well," you say, "pastor prince, sir,
  • 00:03:37.926 --> 00:03:39.261
  • This is not relevant to me.
  • 00:03:39.261 --> 00:03:40.595
  • I don't suffer from depression."
  • 00:03:40.595 --> 00:03:41.930
  • Listen, all of us at certain times in our life
  • 00:03:41.930 --> 00:03:44.399
  • Experience a certain measure of depression, why?
  • 00:03:44.399 --> 00:03:47.769
  • If you're a believer, you're under attack.
  • 00:03:47.769 --> 00:03:50.339
  • That's why we need to put on the armor of god
  • 00:03:50.339 --> 00:03:52.607
  • And the helmet of salvation.
  • 00:03:52.607 --> 00:03:54.609
  • If you don't watch it, this depression can become,
  • 00:03:54.609 --> 00:03:57.646
  • What isaiah says, "gross darkness
  • 00:03:57.646 --> 00:04:00.749
  • Covers the people."
  • 00:04:00.749 --> 00:04:02.117
  • Gross means heavy, heavy, almost to the point
  • 00:04:02.117 --> 00:04:05.721
  • That you can feel it, and this is bad
  • 00:04:05.721 --> 00:04:08.123
  • Because, i'll tell you what-- what's gonna happen.
  • 00:04:08.123 --> 00:04:10.192
  • I believe there's a revelation here from the lord,
  • 00:04:10.192 --> 00:04:12.961
  • And i can prove to you from the bible
  • 00:04:12.961 --> 00:04:15.263
  • That depression, negative, negativities, and pessimism
  • 00:04:15.263 --> 00:04:22.270
  • And worries and anxieties that formulate themselves
  • 00:04:22.270 --> 00:04:25.741
  • Into a state of depression,
  • 00:04:25.741 --> 00:04:27.943
  • Regardless of whether you're on medication or not,
  • 00:04:27.943 --> 00:04:30.145
  • Don't matter.
  • 00:04:30.145 --> 00:04:31.580
  • It's deadly.
  • 00:04:31.580 --> 00:04:33.348
  • And until we see it's deadly, we'll not try to do
  • 00:04:33.348 --> 00:04:36.418
  • Anything about it, all right?
  • 00:04:36.418 --> 00:04:39.020
  • Medication deals with the results, i mean,
  • 00:04:39.020 --> 00:04:43.959
  • The symptoms, usually, but doesn't deal with the root.
  • 00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:50.332
  • If you are on medication, please continue, okay,
  • 00:04:50.332 --> 00:04:53.368
  • Listen to your doctor.
  • 00:04:53.368 --> 00:04:55.137
  • But understand the problem is spiritual.
  • 00:04:55.137 --> 00:04:59.307
  • That isn't the bible, amen.
  • 00:04:59.307 --> 00:05:01.710
  • The people who are depressed-- even ministers get depressed.
  • 00:05:01.710 --> 00:05:05.914
  • They can shut themselves in their room
  • 00:05:05.914 --> 00:05:08.083
  • And all kinds of movies are playing in their mind
  • 00:05:08.083 --> 00:05:12.621
  • That's just negative, always negative, amen?
  • 00:05:12.621 --> 00:05:18.527
  • What is happening?
  • 00:05:18.527 --> 00:05:20.162
  • Well, it's dangerous because long before
  • 00:05:20.162 --> 00:05:22.464
  • The devil try to produce a disease or sickness
  • 00:05:22.464 --> 00:05:24.699
  • In your life, you know what he does?
  • 00:05:24.699 --> 00:05:26.134
  • He produces depression, sorrow of the world.
  • 00:05:26.134 --> 00:05:32.007
  • It's called sorrow of the world.
  • 00:05:32.007 --> 00:05:33.341
  • In 2 corinthians 7, verse 10, it says,
  • 00:05:33.341 --> 00:05:36.211
  • "godly sorrow produces repentance
  • 00:05:36.211 --> 00:05:38.180
  • Leading to salvation."
  • 00:05:38.180 --> 00:05:39.514
  • Now, paul is writing to christians, corinthians,
  • 00:05:39.514 --> 00:05:41.450
  • So this salvation here is not salvation from hell.
  • 00:05:41.450 --> 00:05:43.718
  • He's not telling them to be saved.
  • 00:05:43.718 --> 00:05:45.587
  • Don't forget, the word "salvation"
  • 00:05:45.587 --> 00:05:46.922
  • Is an all-inclusive word.
  • 00:05:46.922 --> 00:05:48.790
  • It's not just salvation from hell, all right,
  • 00:05:48.790 --> 00:05:51.426
  • Being saved from eternal punishment,
  • 00:05:51.426 --> 00:05:53.528
  • All right, saved from the kingdom of darkness
  • 00:05:53.528 --> 00:05:55.831
  • Into the kingdom of light.
  • 00:05:55.831 --> 00:05:57.165
  • It's also a word they use for healing.
  • 00:05:57.165 --> 00:05:59.134
  • For example, when jesus heals someone,
  • 00:05:59.134 --> 00:06:01.503
  • He said that "your faith has saved you," the woman,
  • 00:06:01.503 --> 00:06:04.306
  • The issue of blood, remember?
  • 00:06:04.306 --> 00:06:05.740
  • Look at the word "save."
  • 00:06:05.740 --> 00:06:07.075
  • It's from the word salvation, "sozo," amen?
  • 00:06:07.075 --> 00:06:09.978
  • Many a times, the healing that happen in new testament
  • 00:06:09.978 --> 00:06:12.214
  • Is physical healing, but the word salvation,
  • 00:06:12.214 --> 00:06:14.483
  • Or sozo, the verb form is used.
  • 00:06:14.483 --> 00:06:17.519
  • So, it's telling you godly sorrow
  • 00:06:17.519 --> 00:06:19.788
  • Actually leads you to...
  • 00:06:19.788 --> 00:06:21.656
  • Wholeness!
  • 00:06:21.656 --> 00:06:23.525
  • Leads you to peace of mind.
  • 00:06:23.525 --> 00:06:25.193
  • Leads--so, it's a godly sorrow
  • 00:06:25.193 --> 00:06:27.028
  • That produces that change of mind.
  • 00:06:27.028 --> 00:06:29.931
  • You know, when something bad happen
  • 00:06:29.931 --> 00:06:31.266
  • And you realize that, you know,
  • 00:06:31.266 --> 00:06:33.001
  • Maybe you went to the doctor and then the doctor
  • 00:06:33.001 --> 00:06:34.669
  • Tells you something bad, but it's not so serious,
  • 00:06:34.669 --> 00:06:36.505
  • You still have a chance to turn around.
  • 00:06:36.505 --> 00:06:38.306
  • You come back and you say, "how stupid i was
  • 00:06:38.306 --> 00:06:41.309
  • To keep on having this habit, to do what my friend said,
  • 00:06:41.309 --> 00:06:44.646
  • Or to smoke," and now there's something--
  • 00:06:44.646 --> 00:06:47.282
  • Something awry, you know, in the diagnosis of the doctor
  • 00:06:47.282 --> 00:06:51.353
  • On your lungs.
  • 00:06:51.353 --> 00:06:52.687
  • Now you're saying, you know--and doctors--
  • 00:06:52.687 --> 00:06:54.222
  • "okay, it's still early stage, whatever.
  • 00:06:54.222 --> 00:06:55.724
  • We can do something about it."
  • 00:06:55.724 --> 00:06:57.459
  • What happened then is that there's godly sorrow,
  • 00:06:57.459 --> 00:07:00.962
  • If you're a believer,
  • 00:07:00.962 --> 00:07:02.297
  • Because the first thing you think of: god.
  • 00:07:02.297 --> 00:07:04.866
  • This is the temple of god.
  • 00:07:04.866 --> 00:07:06.868
  • You might think, "why god allow it?"
  • 00:07:06.868 --> 00:07:08.203
  • You know, we always blame god.
  • 00:07:08.203 --> 00:07:10.071
  • And god is the perfect love that casts out all our fears,
  • 00:07:10.071 --> 00:07:15.310
  • And that's how he loves us, but we always want to blame him,
  • 00:07:15.310 --> 00:07:18.046
  • And then we don't sit and ask ourself,
  • 00:07:18.046 --> 00:07:19.881
  • "how did we allow this to happen in our lives," okay?
  • 00:07:19.881 --> 00:07:24.152
  • So, understand this: the only sorrow
  • 00:07:24.152 --> 00:07:26.054
  • That god allows you to have is godly sorrow.
  • 00:07:26.054 --> 00:07:29.424
  • And of course, another place where he allows you to,
  • 00:07:29.424 --> 00:07:31.393
  • He says, "weep with those who weep."
  • 00:07:31.393 --> 00:07:33.128
  • There are times, you know, something happen,
  • 00:07:33.128 --> 00:07:35.430
  • Like a loved one goes to be with the lord.
  • 00:07:35.430 --> 00:07:38.433
  • The bible says, "weep with those who weep.
  • 00:07:38.433 --> 00:07:40.702
  • But know this: let us not weep or mourn
  • 00:07:40.702 --> 00:07:45.206
  • Like those people with no hope.
  • 00:07:45.206 --> 00:07:47.475
  • For we know, we say this to you by the word of the lord:
  • 00:07:47.475 --> 00:07:50.545
  • That we who are alive and remain until the coming of the lord,
  • 00:07:50.545 --> 00:07:55.216
  • When he comes in with a shout of the archangel,
  • 00:07:55.216 --> 00:07:58.320
  • The voice of the archangel, and the trumpet of god,
  • 00:07:58.320 --> 00:08:01.222
  • We shall not go first.
  • 00:08:01.222 --> 00:08:03.391
  • We shall not-- they will precede us," amen.
  • 00:08:03.391 --> 00:08:07.462
  • They shall arise first, amen.
  • 00:08:07.462 --> 00:08:11.766
  • And then we'll join them.
  • 00:08:11.766 --> 00:08:13.602
  • Together we shall be with the lord.
  • 00:08:13.602 --> 00:08:16.571
  • The dead in christ are not dead.
  • 00:08:16.571 --> 00:08:18.740
  • They are more alive than you know.
  • 00:08:18.740 --> 00:08:22.544
  • We have grown accustomed to this encumbrance of our body
  • 00:08:22.544 --> 00:08:25.413
  • With all its weaknesses that we think we are alive.
  • 00:08:25.413 --> 00:08:28.149
  • They don't have an encumbrance anymore,
  • 00:08:28.149 --> 00:08:30.585
  • But they-- the real them is alive.
  • 00:08:30.585 --> 00:08:32.654
  • See, you are not you, body.
  • 00:08:32.654 --> 00:08:34.789
  • You are not-- when i talk to you,
  • 00:08:34.789 --> 00:08:36.124
  • I am talking to your body, right?
  • 00:08:36.124 --> 00:08:37.459
  • I'm looking into your eyes, amen?
  • 00:08:37.459 --> 00:08:39.361
  • But actually, it is not you that's alive.
  • 00:08:39.361 --> 00:08:43.198
  • You, the moment your spirit leaves your body,
  • 00:08:43.198 --> 00:08:45.533
  • Your heart stops beating.
  • 00:08:45.533 --> 00:08:47.769
  • Even your heart is not the thing.
  • 00:08:47.769 --> 00:08:49.638
  • The source is the spirit and the soul.
  • 00:08:49.638 --> 00:08:52.574
  • So when you step out of the body,
  • 00:08:52.574 --> 00:08:54.242
  • The body will drop because it's just a vehicle.
  • 00:08:54.242 --> 00:08:57.512
  • It's your earth suit, if you would.
  • 00:08:57.512 --> 00:09:00.548
  • In heaven--in fact, it's not exactly an earth suit;
  • 00:09:00.548 --> 00:09:04.085
  • It's a glorified body that you have.
  • 00:09:04.085 --> 00:09:05.887
  • It's still a body because god made us
  • 00:09:05.887 --> 00:09:07.689
  • Originally spirit, soul, body, but in heaven,
  • 00:09:07.689 --> 00:09:09.824
  • It's a different kind of heaven suit,
  • 00:09:09.824 --> 00:09:13.061
  • Heavenly suit, amen.
  • 00:09:13.061 --> 00:09:15.463
  • They cannot grow old, cannot be bored, cannot lie,
  • 00:09:15.463 --> 00:09:18.400
  • Cannot sleep when the pastor preach,
  • 00:09:18.400 --> 00:09:20.035
  • None of these things, you know,
  • 00:09:20.035 --> 00:09:21.870
  • And will never die, amen?
  • 00:09:21.870 --> 00:09:23.571
  • So, let's rejoice.
  • 00:09:23.571 --> 00:09:24.906
  • In a way, we rejoice, we cry
  • 00:09:24.906 --> 00:09:26.574
  • Because of the temporary separation.
  • 00:09:26.574 --> 00:09:28.309
  • Like, your son will be in a far country,
  • 00:09:28.309 --> 00:09:31.379
  • Studying in a university somewhere, you cry
  • 00:09:31.379 --> 00:09:33.682
  • Because of the temporary separation, all right?
  • 00:09:33.682 --> 00:09:36.685
  • Or you cry tears of joy because finally
  • 00:09:36.685 --> 00:09:38.787
  • That he's leaving, hallelujah.
  • 00:09:38.787 --> 00:09:40.188
  • "darling, he's leaving."
  • 00:09:40.188 --> 00:09:41.523
  • Amen, i do not know, but there'll be tears,
  • 00:09:41.523 --> 00:09:43.124
  • There'll be tears, initial tears, okay.
  • 00:09:43.124 --> 00:09:44.826
  • So, whatever it is, if that's the case,
  • 00:09:44.826 --> 00:09:47.362
  • Amen, it's temporal.
  • 00:09:47.362 --> 00:09:48.697
  • We know that we miss the person, but the person who is there
  • 00:09:48.697 --> 00:09:52.067
  • Actually should be crying for us
  • 00:09:52.067 --> 00:09:53.401
  • Because when he's there, it's perfect happiness.
  • 00:09:53.401 --> 00:09:56.671
  • There are no hospitals there.
  • 00:09:56.671 --> 00:09:59.074
  • There are no funeral parlors there.
  • 00:09:59.074 --> 00:10:04.045
  • No one dies there.
  • 00:10:04.045 --> 00:10:05.747
  • Even the flowers never fade.
  • 00:10:05.747 --> 00:10:07.916
  • Amen, we live forever in our young state, forever--
  • 00:10:07.916 --> 00:10:11.219
  • No more pain, no more tiredness, amen.
  • 00:10:11.219 --> 00:10:14.089
  • So, they look down at us, and then we say--we are crying.
  • 00:10:14.089 --> 00:10:16.391
  • "they're crying over me? i'm crying over them."
  • 00:10:16.391 --> 00:10:19.461
  • You know what i'm saying?
  • 00:10:19.461 --> 00:10:20.795
  • But we understand: being human, all right,
  • 00:10:20.795 --> 00:10:22.130
  • We cry for a while, so that's godly sorrow, okay?
  • 00:10:22.130 --> 00:10:26.234
  • But sorrow of the world produces death.
  • 00:10:26.234 --> 00:10:29.704
  • You see that?
  • 00:10:29.704 --> 00:10:31.039
  • If the bible says "produces death,"
  • 00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:32.373
  • You better take it seriously.
  • 00:10:32.373 --> 00:10:34.943
  • This is serious business.
  • 00:10:34.943 --> 00:10:36.745
  • But then jesus, listen, jesus at the cross--
  • 00:10:36.745 --> 00:10:40.749
  • Isaiah 53, verse 4, "surely he has borne our griefs
  • 00:10:40.749 --> 00:10:44.619
  • And carried our sorrows."
  • 00:10:44.619 --> 00:10:46.221
  • Now, this is interesting.
  • 00:10:46.221 --> 00:10:47.555
  • King james version says he carried our griefs.
  • 00:10:47.555 --> 00:10:49.457
  • I gotta bring this to a close already, all right,
  • 00:10:49.457 --> 00:10:51.793
  • Because i'm just starting.
  • 00:10:51.793 --> 00:10:54.362
  • You want some more, you keep on coming, amen?
  • 00:10:54.362 --> 00:10:56.998
  • "surely he bore our griefs and carried our sorrows."
  • 00:10:56.998 --> 00:10:59.868
  • Can you see that? can you see that?
  • 00:10:59.868 --> 00:11:02.871
  • King james version, new king james,
  • 00:11:02.871 --> 00:11:04.472
  • Meant translation actually says "griefs and sorrows,"
  • 00:11:04.472 --> 00:11:06.508
  • But actually in the hebrew, the word there should be
  • 00:11:06.508 --> 00:11:11.379
  • "choli" for griefs; sorrows, "makov."
  • 00:11:11.379 --> 00:11:15.250
  • And listen, choli can be used for griefs,
  • 00:11:15.250 --> 00:11:19.921
  • But most of the time-- like, 12 times--
  • 00:11:19.921 --> 00:11:24.058
  • Choli is used for "sicknesses," five times for diseases,
  • 00:11:24.058 --> 00:11:32.100
  • Only four times for griefs.
  • 00:11:32.100 --> 00:11:34.803
  • So, you see the emphasis, all right?
  • 00:11:34.803 --> 00:11:37.005
  • And then the word makov-- "carried our sorrows"--
  • 00:11:37.005 --> 00:11:39.007
  • Makov is sorrow.
  • 00:11:39.007 --> 00:11:40.675
  • And again, most of the time, the word is used for diseases.
  • 00:11:40.675 --> 00:11:45.280
  • Is there sorrow? yes, there's sorrow.
  • 00:11:45.280 --> 00:11:47.015
  • But when do you-- how do you know, then,
  • 00:11:47.015 --> 00:11:48.950
  • That jesus carried our diseases and our pains?
  • 00:11:48.950 --> 00:11:51.920
  • First of all, i'll show you young's translation.
  • 00:11:51.920 --> 00:11:53.755
  • Young's a hebrew scholar.
  • 00:11:53.755 --> 00:11:55.089
  • Young's says, "surely our sicknesses he has borne,
  • 00:11:55.089 --> 00:11:57.892
  • And our pains-- he has carried them."
  • 00:11:57.892 --> 00:12:00.028
  • So, you see, it's not our sorrows;
  • 00:12:00.028 --> 00:12:01.529
  • It is actually our pains and our disease.
  • 00:12:01.529 --> 00:12:05.033
  • And if that is not enough, bible interpret bible.
  • 00:12:05.033 --> 00:12:08.102
  • In the new testament, in reference to this,
  • 00:12:08.102 --> 00:12:10.905
  • It says that jesus went around-- show them the context first.
  • 00:12:10.905 --> 00:12:14.809
  • He's referring to jesus casting out demons,
  • 00:12:14.809 --> 00:12:16.778
  • Verse 16, all right?
  • 00:12:16.778 --> 00:12:18.112
  • He--"they brought to him many who were demon-possessed.
  • 00:12:18.112 --> 00:12:20.281
  • He cast out the spirits with a word,
  • 00:12:20.281 --> 00:12:21.850
  • Healed all who were sick," healed all people who were sick,
  • 00:12:21.850 --> 00:12:26.487
  • "that it might be fulfilled
  • 00:12:26.487 --> 00:12:27.822
  • Which was spoken by isaiah the prophet,
  • 00:12:27.822 --> 00:12:29.157
  • Saying: 'he himself took our infirmities
  • 00:12:29.157 --> 00:12:32.260
  • And bore our sicknesses.'"
  • 00:12:32.260 --> 00:12:35.630
  • Do you see that?
  • 00:12:35.630 --> 00:12:37.699
  • So, this is, in the greek, very clear.
  • 00:12:37.699 --> 00:12:40.501
  • The context is not-- the context tells you
  • 00:12:40.501 --> 00:12:43.238
  • It's not sorrows.
  • 00:12:43.238 --> 00:12:44.572
  • It's referring to "he carried our diseases"
  • 00:12:44.572 --> 00:12:48.409
  • Because he's-- when he went around
  • 00:12:48.409 --> 00:12:50.612
  • Healing all who were sick, it's like paying through,
  • 00:12:50.612 --> 00:12:53.848
  • Like, visa.
  • 00:12:53.848 --> 00:12:55.316
  • He has not yet died, but he-- whenever someone gets healed
  • 00:12:55.316 --> 00:13:00.154
  • And they go away, jesus says, like, to the father,
  • 00:13:00.154 --> 00:13:02.690
  • "put that on my tab."
  • 00:13:02.690 --> 00:13:06.027
  • He will pay for it at the cross, amen?
  • 00:13:06.027 --> 00:13:10.565
  • So, the context is very clear,
  • 00:13:10.565 --> 00:13:11.900
  • But what it tells me is this: the hebrew word
  • 00:13:11.900 --> 00:13:15.103
  • For choli and makov is also grief and sorrow;
  • 00:13:15.103 --> 00:13:19.407
  • And, therefore, it is in the disease.
  • 00:13:19.407 --> 00:13:24.679
  • Could it be the very thing-- since it's the--
  • 00:13:24.679 --> 00:13:27.448
  • The etymology is there-- there is also
  • 00:13:27.448 --> 00:13:29.450
  • The root of disease: grief and sorrow.
  • 00:13:29.450 --> 00:13:35.590
  • It should not be prolonged in your life,
  • 00:13:35.590 --> 00:13:37.358
  • And that's why the lord says the joy of the lord is our...
  • 00:13:37.358 --> 00:13:40.361
  • Strength, amen?
  • 00:13:40.361 --> 00:13:43.197
  • You see, if i say the joy of the lord is my strength,
  • 00:13:43.197 --> 00:13:45.833
  • Listen, the joy of the lord is my strength,
  • 00:13:45.833 --> 00:13:47.769
  • That means the joy of the lord.
  • 00:13:47.769 --> 00:13:49.704
  • The lord has joy.
  • 00:13:49.704 --> 00:13:51.673
  • You know, i don't believe in this jesus that walks around
  • 00:13:51.673 --> 00:13:54.008
  • With a face so morose...
  • 00:13:54.008 --> 00:13:56.678
  • "peace, be still.
  • 00:13:56.678 --> 00:13:59.747
  • Why is it you don't have faith?
  • 00:13:59.747 --> 00:14:02.317
  • Bring him to me."
  • 00:14:02.317 --> 00:14:04.519
  • Then on the night in the upper room,
  • 00:14:04.519 --> 00:14:06.154
  • In the upper room: "these things i say to you that my joy,
  • 00:14:06.154 --> 00:14:14.128
  • My joy, bartholomew, my joy, thomas,
  • 00:14:14.128 --> 00:14:19.634
  • Might remain in you."
  • 00:14:19.634 --> 00:14:22.337
  • And thomas says, "i doubt so," you know?
  • 00:14:22.337 --> 00:14:26.708
  • So, you won't-- no, he came to them and says,
  • 00:14:26.708 --> 00:14:31.279
  • "guys, in the world, you will have trouble,
  • 00:14:31.279 --> 00:14:34.015
  • But be of good cheer.
  • 00:14:34.015 --> 00:14:36.751
  • I have overcome the world."
  • 00:14:36.751 --> 00:14:38.853
  • I believe he did it with a smile.
  • 00:14:38.853 --> 00:14:40.989
  • "and these things i say to you: sorrow has filled your heart,
  • 00:14:40.989 --> 00:14:43.324
  • But listen.
  • 00:14:43.324 --> 00:14:44.959
  • These things i say to you that my joy might be in you
  • 00:14:44.959 --> 00:14:48.096
  • And that your joy might be full."
  • 00:14:48.096 --> 00:14:52.000
  • They are--i believe they had so much joy,
  • 00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:54.836
  • These disciples with jesus.
  • 00:14:54.836 --> 00:14:57.005
  • So, it's the joy, it's his joy,
  • 00:14:57.005 --> 00:14:58.873
  • The joy of the lord that is my strength.
  • 00:14:58.873 --> 00:15:01.342
  • It is not my joy. can i have a good amen?
  • 00:15:01.342 --> 00:15:04.078
  • "but, pastor prince--" i remember years ago
  • 00:15:04.078 --> 00:15:06.147
  • I was preaching in a youth group
  • 00:15:06.147 --> 00:15:09.017
  • In a school somewhere in singapore,
  • 00:15:09.017 --> 00:15:11.452
  • And i was preaching about jesus and how joyful,
  • 00:15:11.452 --> 00:15:13.855
  • You know, the lord is,
  • 00:15:13.855 --> 00:15:15.356
  • And a young man stood up while i was preaching.
  • 00:15:15.356 --> 00:15:17.525
  • "oh, pastor prince, i would have you know--"
  • 00:15:17.525 --> 00:15:19.260
  • He was trying to impress me about his bible knowledge.
  • 00:15:19.260 --> 00:15:22.163
  • "pastor prince, i would have you know
  • 00:15:22.163 --> 00:15:23.498
  • That the bible says there's a man of sorrows,"
  • 00:15:23.498 --> 00:15:25.933
  • Isaiah 53, you know, verse 3, all right?
  • 00:15:25.933 --> 00:15:32.140
  • A man of sorrows.
  • 00:15:32.140 --> 00:15:33.474
  • He is despised and rejected by men.
  • 00:15:33.474 --> 00:15:35.209
  • See, a man of sorrows, but i just read verse 4 for you.
  • 00:15:35.209 --> 00:15:37.879
  • The context there-- he's referring to the cross,
  • 00:15:37.879 --> 00:15:41.716
  • Referring to his suffering, his passion.
  • 00:15:41.716 --> 00:15:43.818
  • So, i told this young man, "yeah, where do you find
  • 00:15:43.818 --> 00:15:46.054
  • That verse?"
  • 00:15:46.054 --> 00:15:47.388
  • "uh, it's in the bible."
  • 00:15:47.388 --> 00:15:48.790
  • I said, "no, which part of the bible?"
  • 00:15:48.790 --> 00:15:50.224
  • He says, "i, uh, somewhere in the bible."
  • 00:15:50.224 --> 00:15:53.494
  • I said, "i'll quote to you, okay?
  • 00:15:53.494 --> 00:15:54.996
  • Isaiah 53, a man of sorrows."
  • 00:15:54.996 --> 00:15:57.098
  • The only time he's called a man of sorrows is
  • 00:15:57.098 --> 00:15:59.434
  • When he went through-- he carried our sins
  • 00:15:59.434 --> 00:16:01.369
  • And went through it.
  • 00:16:01.369 --> 00:16:04.005
  • He's always joyful.
  • 00:16:04.005 --> 00:16:05.540
  • In fact, i'm gonna quote to you right now
  • 00:16:05.540 --> 00:16:07.141
  • Hebrews chapter 1, all right?
  • 00:16:07.141 --> 00:16:09.710
  • It says, "and unto the son, he's--"
  • 00:16:09.710 --> 00:16:12.080
  • I'm quoting word for word.
  • 00:16:12.080 --> 00:16:13.414
  • "and unto the son, the father says--"
  • 00:16:13.414 --> 00:16:15.650
  • Okay, unto the son, he says, "thy throne, o god--"
  • 00:16:15.650 --> 00:16:18.686
  • See, the father god calls the son "god."
  • 00:16:18.686 --> 00:16:22.690
  • "thy throne, o god, is forever and ever.
  • 00:16:22.690 --> 00:16:25.193
  • A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of your kingdom.
  • 00:16:25.193 --> 00:16:28.429
  • Thou hast loved righteousness and hated iniquity.
  • 00:16:28.429 --> 00:16:31.632
  • Therefore, god, even thy god, has anointed thee
  • 00:16:31.632 --> 00:16:34.702
  • With the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
  • 00:16:34.702 --> 00:16:38.506
  • Can you imagine that?
  • 00:16:38.506 --> 00:16:39.841
  • He's anointed with the oil of gladness
  • 00:16:39.841 --> 00:16:41.742
  • Above his fellows, amen.
  • 00:16:41.742 --> 00:16:46.547
  • We need this anointing, this oil of gladness
  • 00:16:46.547 --> 00:16:49.717
  • Upon our young generation, upon our people, because they--
  • 00:16:49.717 --> 00:16:53.121
  • They're under special attack with depression.
  • 00:16:53.121 --> 00:16:56.157
  • If all kinds of--young people are taking their lives
  • 00:16:56.157 --> 00:16:59.760
  • All over the world, and they are increasing.
  • 00:16:59.760 --> 00:17:05.833
  • They're even doing it in singapore.
  • 00:17:05.833 --> 00:17:09.003
  • We need to reach out with joy.
  • 00:17:09.003 --> 00:17:13.207
  • You might think that they are happy
  • 00:17:13.207 --> 00:17:14.609
  • Because when you see them in a group, they are joking
  • 00:17:14.609 --> 00:17:17.245
  • And all that, but that-- probably say that's--
  • 00:17:17.245 --> 00:17:20.148
  • There's a kind of joke that is a laughter
  • 00:17:20.148 --> 00:17:22.817
  • That is empty.
  • 00:17:22.817 --> 00:17:25.153
  • Deep down, they're not happy, amen?
  • 00:17:25.153 --> 00:17:29.657
  • So, if jesus is anointed with the oil of gladness
  • 00:17:29.657 --> 00:17:32.627
  • Above his fellows-- have you seen pastor mark?
  • 00:17:32.627 --> 00:17:37.698
  • He can stand down here and laugh for hours,
  • 00:17:37.698 --> 00:17:39.467
  • You know, right?
  • 00:17:39.467 --> 00:17:42.103
  • If he's anointed with the oil of gladness
  • 00:17:42.103 --> 00:17:43.838
  • Above all his fellows,
  • 00:17:43.838 --> 00:17:45.973
  • Referring to all the believers, all his disciples and all that,
  • 00:17:45.973 --> 00:17:48.476
  • He's the most joyful one.
  • 00:17:48.476 --> 00:17:50.778
  • Known as this: "that my joy might remain in you
  • 00:17:50.778 --> 00:17:53.047
  • And that your joy might be full."
  • 00:17:53.047 --> 00:17:54.382
  • Yours is still not full. i want it to be full, amen?
  • 00:17:54.382 --> 00:17:59.820
  • The only time the bible tells us that he ever said,
  • 00:17:59.820 --> 00:18:03.191
  • "i'm so sorrowful," was in the garden,
  • 00:18:03.191 --> 00:18:05.593
  • When the passion started, all right?
  • 00:18:05.593 --> 00:18:08.462
  • He says in matthew 22:26, "then he said to them,"
  • 00:18:08.462 --> 00:18:11.632
  • His disciples, "my soul--" i believe he said it "my soul."
  • 00:18:11.632 --> 00:18:16.904
  • Probably had tears.
  • 00:18:16.904 --> 00:18:18.339
  • "exceeding sorrowful," because why?
  • 00:18:18.339 --> 00:18:21.509
  • The sorrow of the world is now coming on him.
  • 00:18:21.509 --> 00:18:24.078
  • He's gonna carry it.
  • 00:18:24.078 --> 00:18:25.947
  • "is exceeding sorrowful, even to death."
  • 00:18:25.947 --> 00:18:32.220
  • Imagine the lord saying, "it's a sorrow
  • 00:18:32.220 --> 00:18:35.489
  • That leads to death."
  • 00:18:35.489 --> 00:18:39.126
  • It's not his. he will never talk like that.
  • 00:18:39.126 --> 00:18:42.263
  • He said just in the upper room,
  • 00:18:42.263 --> 00:18:44.632
  • Just a few hours before this, in the garden of gethsemane,
  • 00:18:44.632 --> 00:18:47.101
  • He was in the upper room, he says,
  • 00:18:47.101 --> 00:18:48.436
  • "that my joy might remain in you."
  • 00:18:48.436 --> 00:18:50.771
  • Something happened.
  • 00:18:50.771 --> 00:18:52.106
  • He's no longer jesus the king,
  • 00:18:52.106 --> 00:18:59.480
  • Jesus the good shepherd, right, that watch over his--
  • 00:18:59.480 --> 00:19:06.120
  • Now he's becoming jesus the lamb of god.
  • 00:19:06.120 --> 00:19:08.889
  • The shepherd has become the lamb.
  • 00:19:08.889 --> 00:19:11.692
  • So, it is our sins that he's carrying.
  • 00:19:11.692 --> 00:19:13.995
  • It is our curse that he bore.
  • 00:19:13.995 --> 00:19:15.997
  • It is our sorrow that afflicted him.
  • 00:19:15.997 --> 00:19:20.801
  • He carried that depression that you feel at night,
  • 00:19:20.801 --> 00:19:24.572
  • When you think that no one knows,
  • 00:19:24.572 --> 00:19:26.307
  • You feel all alone, but you feel like the whole room
  • 00:19:26.307 --> 00:19:28.476
  • Is getting dark.
  • 00:19:28.476 --> 00:19:29.844
  • Jesus carried that.
  • 00:19:29.844 --> 00:19:32.613
  • He carried your exceeding sorrowful--
  • 00:19:32.613 --> 00:19:36.117
  • That feeling like killing yourself--even unto death.
  • 00:19:36.117 --> 00:19:39.720
  • He carried it even unto death.
  • 00:19:39.720 --> 00:19:42.990
  • Now, jesus did not contemplate suicide,
  • 00:19:42.990 --> 00:19:45.893
  • No, no, no, no.
  • 00:19:45.893 --> 00:19:47.428
  • But he carried that, even to death.
  • 00:19:47.428 --> 00:19:52.767
  • "'stay here and watch with me.'
  • 00:19:52.767 --> 00:19:54.135
  • He went a little farther and fell on his face
  • 00:19:54.135 --> 00:19:56.370
  • And prayed."
  • 00:19:56.370 --> 00:19:57.705
  • You see in the garden: "o father, if it's possible,
  • 00:19:57.705 --> 00:19:59.974
  • Let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as i will,
  • 00:19:59.974 --> 00:20:02.743
  • But as you will."
  • 00:20:02.743 --> 00:20:04.378
  • No wonder the father loves the son, amen.
  • 00:20:04.378 --> 00:20:08.849
  • He's a son whom the father is well pleased.
  • 00:20:08.849 --> 00:20:12.720
  • You say, "i don't understand, pastor.
  • 00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:14.655
  • He's jesus. he can handle all these things."
  • 00:20:14.655 --> 00:20:16.657
  • Let me tell you something, okay?
  • 00:20:16.657 --> 00:20:18.259
  • You have never been where he was.
  • 00:20:18.259 --> 00:20:22.096
  • Can you imagine the hol-- the son of god?
  • 00:20:22.096 --> 00:20:25.199
  • His nature is holy, all right?
  • 00:20:25.199 --> 00:20:28.002
  • He's full of grace, and that's why his holiness
  • 00:20:28.002 --> 00:20:30.705
  • Is not like-- "i stand here, okay.
  • 00:20:30.705 --> 00:20:33.774
  • I'm too holy for you to come near or to touch."
  • 00:20:33.774 --> 00:20:36.510
  • No, no, no, his holiness has sinners around him, amen?
  • 00:20:36.510 --> 00:20:40.581
  • Yet he never was defiled by them.
  • 00:20:40.581 --> 00:20:43.117
  • They were touched by him, amen, into wholeness,
  • 00:20:43.117 --> 00:20:47.121
  • Into holiness.
  • 00:20:47.121 --> 00:20:50.591
  • But here, jesus took our sorrows.
  • 00:20:50.591 --> 00:20:56.931
  • He felt the pain of it, the weight of it,
  • 00:20:56.931 --> 00:20:59.033
  • But especially if you are jesus--
  • 00:20:59.033 --> 00:21:01.836
  • We can't imagine, because all of us,
  • 00:21:01.836 --> 00:21:03.738
  • Our minds are defiled, dirty, and we think it's natural.
  • 00:21:03.738 --> 00:21:07.074
  • For the son of god, he never experienced sin one time.
  • 00:21:07.074 --> 00:21:11.412
  • The very thought of sin, he shudders.
  • 00:21:11.412 --> 00:21:14.382
  • It's not in his nature.
  • 00:21:14.382 --> 00:21:17.351
  • But to think that just the contemplation
  • 00:21:17.351 --> 00:21:20.688
  • That in a few hours he'll be on the cross.
  • 00:21:20.688 --> 00:21:23.557
  • And he who knew no sin will be made sin with our sin,
  • 00:21:23.557 --> 00:21:30.664
  • Not just carry our sins.
  • 00:21:30.664 --> 00:21:32.533
  • Be made sin at the cross.
  • 00:21:32.533 --> 00:21:39.106
  • That thought is like a holy shock
  • 00:21:39.106 --> 00:21:45.880
  • Reverberated through his body, his whole being.
  • 00:21:45.880 --> 00:21:48.983
  • It's like, almost like he take the cup,
  • 00:21:48.983 --> 00:21:51.385
  • The cup that symbolized all the judgment
  • 00:21:51.385 --> 00:21:53.721
  • And the condemnation, all our uncleanness
  • 00:21:53.721 --> 00:21:55.990
  • And all that.
  • 00:21:55.990 --> 00:21:57.324
  • He pushed it aside.
  • 00:21:57.324 --> 00:21:58.692
  • "father, it's possible! take this cup from me!"
  • 00:21:58.692 --> 00:22:00.094
  • In the book of hebrews, he cried with strong crying
  • 00:22:00.094 --> 00:22:04.165
  • Because you should know the nature of our lord jesus.
  • 00:22:04.165 --> 00:22:08.936
  • But he saw you, he saw you, he saw you, he saw you,
  • 00:22:08.936 --> 00:22:15.810
  • He saw you, he saw me.
  • 00:22:15.810 --> 00:22:18.979
  • And his--"father, if it's not possible,
  • 00:22:18.979 --> 00:22:21.849
  • There's no other way, not my will,
  • 00:22:21.849 --> 00:22:25.119
  • But your will be done."
  • 00:22:25.119 --> 00:22:26.987
  • And he drank it to its very dregs, amen.
  • 00:22:26.987 --> 00:22:33.694
  • That's the love that he has for us.
  • 00:22:33.694 --> 00:22:36.931
  • So, he bore it in his own being, all right?
  • 00:22:36.931 --> 00:22:40.334
  • Philippians 3:1-- paul, the greatest apostle,
  • 00:22:40.334 --> 00:22:44.138
  • I believe, that ever lived, he says, "my brethren,
  • 00:22:44.138 --> 00:22:46.474
  • Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the lord!
  • 00:22:46.474 --> 00:22:50.010
  • For me to write the same things to you
  • 00:22:50.010 --> 00:22:51.779
  • Is not tedious, but for you it is safe."
  • 00:22:51.779 --> 00:22:53.881
  • Joseph prince says, "for me to preach the same things to you
  • 00:22:53.881 --> 00:22:57.585
  • Is not tedious, but for you it is safe!"
  • 00:22:57.585 --> 00:23:03.390
  • You need to hear it again and again and again and again!
  • 00:23:03.390 --> 00:23:09.463
  • We have so many blessings to count and to thank god for.
  • 00:23:09.463 --> 00:23:12.533
  • We don't even thank god for that.
  • 00:23:12.533 --> 00:23:13.901
  • Something bad happen, we focus all our attention on it.
  • 00:23:13.901 --> 00:23:17.371
  • Stop that!
  • 00:23:17.371 --> 00:23:18.706
  • Thank god for every blessing you have!
  • 00:23:18.706 --> 00:23:20.608
  • You're alive!
