With today's program. >> joseph prince: when the bible
00:01:00.937 --> 00:01:01.671
>> joseph prince: when the bible says arise, shine, that means
00:01:01.738 --> 00:01:05.575
Says arise, shine, that means the world is in a bad state
00:01:05.642 --> 00:01:07.443
The world is in a bad state and it's telling the church
00:01:07.510 --> 00:01:09.012
And it's telling the church in isaiah arise.
00:01:09.078 --> 00:01:11.281
In isaiah arise. in hebrew, kumi, kumi ori.
00:01:11.347 --> 00:01:14.517
Ori is shine.
00:01:14.584 --> 00:01:16.085
Ori is shine. rise and shine.
00:01:16.152 --> 00:01:17.320
Rise and shine. that means what?
00:01:17.387 --> 00:01:17.854
That means what? rise from what?
00:01:17.921 --> 00:01:19.022
Rise from what? there must be a low level, you
00:01:19.088 --> 00:01:20.690
There must be a low level, you know, that we have fallen into,
00:01:20.757 --> 00:01:22.225
Know, that we have fallen into, and it is a time of darkness.
00:01:22.292 --> 00:01:25.128
And it is a time of darkness. the next verse says, "for
00:01:25.195 --> 00:01:26.229
The next verse says, "for darkness shall cover the earth
00:01:26.296 --> 00:01:28.531
Darkness shall cover the earth and gross darkness the people,
00:01:28.598 --> 00:01:32.602
And gross darkness the people, but the lord will arise upon you
00:01:32.669 --> 00:01:34.971
But the lord will arise upon you and his glory will be seen
00:01:35.038 --> 00:01:37.140
And his glory will be seen upon you."
00:01:37.207 --> 00:01:39.075
Upon you." amen?
00:01:39.142 --> 00:01:39.609
Amen? so you all know, right?
00:01:39.676 --> 00:01:40.610
So you all know, right? i've shared before that
00:01:40.677 --> 00:01:41.744
I've shared before that when things are really dark and
00:01:41.811 --> 00:01:43.246
When things are really dark and there's a spark of light, it--
00:01:43.313 --> 00:01:44.480
There's a spark of light, it-- i don't care how dark it is.
00:01:44.547 --> 00:01:46.216
I don't care how dark it is. the darker, the better.
00:01:46.282 --> 00:01:47.784
The darker, the better. you can see the light in
00:01:47.850 --> 00:01:52.589
You can see the light in a clearer way than if you see on
00:01:52.655 --> 00:01:54.524
A clearer way than if you see on a day--in a--during the daytime,
00:01:54.591 --> 00:01:56.326
A day--in a--during the daytime, but because of the darkness
00:01:56.392 --> 00:01:57.293
But because of the darkness you can see the light.
00:01:57.360 --> 00:01:59.262
You can see the light. it's been a few weeks the lord
00:01:59.329 --> 00:02:00.363
It's been a few weeks the lord put this on my heart
00:02:00.430 --> 00:02:01.097
Put this on my heart and then--about people suffering
00:02:01.164 --> 00:02:05.702
And then--about people suffering this darkness that isaiah
00:02:05.768 --> 00:02:06.869
This darkness that isaiah talks about.
00:02:06.936 --> 00:02:07.604
Talks about. it's going to happen
00:02:07.670 --> 00:02:08.137
It's going to happen in the last days.
00:02:08.204 --> 00:02:08.905
In the last days. darkness covers the people.
00:02:08.972 --> 00:02:10.773
Darkness covers the people. it is not physical--that kind
00:02:10.840 --> 00:02:12.041
It is not physical--that kind of physical darkness.
00:02:12.108 --> 00:02:12.909
Of physical darkness. it is depression, gloom.
00:02:12.976 --> 00:02:15.878
It is depression, gloom. the world gets dark,
00:02:15.945 --> 00:02:16.779
The world gets dark, but it is--you know,
00:02:16.846 --> 00:02:18.348
But it is--you know, people who describe themselves
00:02:18.414 --> 00:02:19.882
People who describe themselves as having depression, it's like
00:02:19.949 --> 00:02:21.985
As having depression, it's like the world becomes dark.
00:02:22.051 --> 00:02:25.121
The world becomes dark. it's like they step
00:02:25.188 --> 00:02:25.688
It's like they step into a room--it's a bright room,
00:02:25.755 --> 00:02:27.023
Into a room--it's a bright room, but all of a sudden the room
00:02:27.090 --> 00:02:27.957
But all of a sudden the room becomes--it's like nighttime.
00:02:28.024 --> 00:02:30.126
Becomes--it's like nighttime. that's how they describe it.
00:02:30.193 --> 00:02:31.995
That's how they describe it. they're suffering
00:02:32.061 --> 00:02:32.495
They're suffering from depression.
00:02:32.562 --> 00:02:33.096
From depression. well, you say, "pastor prince,
00:02:33.162 --> 00:02:33.930
Well, you say, "pastor prince, this is not relevant to me.
00:02:33.997 --> 00:02:34.831
This is not relevant to me. i don't suffer from depression."
00:02:34.897 --> 00:02:35.965
I don't suffer from depression." listen, all of us at certain
00:02:36.032 --> 00:02:38.034
Listen, all of us at certain times in our life experience
00:02:38.101 --> 00:02:40.169
Times in our life experience a certain measure
00:02:40.236 --> 00:02:41.037
A certain measure of depression.
00:02:41.104 --> 00:02:42.705
Of depression. why?
00:02:42.772 --> 00:02:43.206
Why? if you're a believer,
00:02:43.273 --> 00:02:43.806
If you're a believer, you're under attack.
00:02:43.873 --> 00:02:45.708
You're under attack. that's why you need to put
00:02:45.775 --> 00:02:46.509
That's why you need to put on the armor of god
00:02:46.576 --> 00:02:47.977
On the armor of god and the helmet of salvation.
00:02:48.044 --> 00:02:50.013
And the helmet of salvation. if you don't watch it,
00:02:50.079 --> 00:02:51.047
If you don't watch it, this depression can become
00:02:51.114 --> 00:02:52.915
This depression can become what isaiah says.
00:02:52.982 --> 00:02:54.917
What isaiah says. gross darkness covers
00:02:54.984 --> 00:02:56.319
Gross darkness covers the people.
00:02:56.386 --> 00:02:57.387
The people. gross means heavy, heavy almost
00:02:57.453 --> 00:03:00.657
Gross means heavy, heavy almost to the point that you can feel
00:03:00.723 --> 00:03:01.591
To the point that you can feel it, and this is bad because i
00:03:01.658 --> 00:03:03.893
It, and this is bad because i tell you what's going to happen.
00:03:03.960 --> 00:03:05.561
Tell you what's going to happen. i believe there's a revelation
00:03:05.628 --> 00:03:06.562
I believe there's a revelation here from the lord,
00:03:06.629 --> 00:03:08.131
Here from the lord, and i can prove to you
00:03:08.197 --> 00:03:09.098
And i can prove to you from the bible that depression,
00:03:09.165 --> 00:03:13.102
From the bible that depression, negative--negativities
00:03:13.169 --> 00:03:16.372
Negative--negativities and pessimism and worries
00:03:16.439 --> 00:03:18.441
And pessimism and worries and anxieties that formulate
00:03:18.508 --> 00:03:20.610
And anxieties that formulate themselves into a state of
00:03:20.677 --> 00:03:22.245
Themselves into a state of depression regardless of whether
00:03:22.312 --> 00:03:23.780
Depression regardless of whether you are on medication or not.
00:03:23.846 --> 00:03:25.515
You are on medication or not. don't matter.
00:03:25.581 --> 00:03:26.983
Don't matter. it's deadly, and until we see
00:03:27.050 --> 00:03:29.385
It's deadly, and until we see it's deadly, we'll not try to do
00:03:29.452 --> 00:03:31.754
It's deadly, we'll not try to do anything about it, all right?
00:03:31.821 --> 00:03:33.790
Anything about it, all right? medication deals with
00:03:33.856 --> 00:03:35.091
Medication deals with the results--i mean the symptoms
00:03:35.158 --> 00:03:40.897
The results--i mean the symptoms usually but doesn't deal
00:03:40.963 --> 00:03:42.732
Usually but doesn't deal with the root.
00:03:42.799 --> 00:03:45.735
With the root. if you are on medication,
00:03:45.802 --> 00:03:46.636
If you are on medication, please continue, okay?
00:03:46.703 --> 00:03:48.705
Please continue, okay? listen to your doctor,
00:03:48.771 --> 00:03:50.506
Listen to your doctor, but understand
00:03:50.573 --> 00:03:52.575
But understand the problem is spiritual,
00:03:52.642 --> 00:03:54.711
The problem is spiritual, and it's in the bible, amen.
00:03:54.777 --> 00:03:57.080
And it's in the bible, amen. the people who are
00:03:57.146 --> 00:03:58.114
The people who are depressed--even ministers
00:03:58.181 --> 00:03:59.482
Depressed--even ministers get depressed.
00:03:59.549 --> 00:04:01.284
Get depressed. they shut themselves in the room
00:04:01.351 --> 00:04:03.453
They shut themselves in the room and all kinds of movies are
00:04:03.519 --> 00:04:07.123
And all kinds of movies are playing in their mind that are
00:04:07.190 --> 00:04:08.291
Playing in their mind that are just negative, always negative.
00:04:08.358 --> 00:04:11.561
Just negative, always negative. amen?
00:04:11.627 --> 00:04:13.930
Amen? what is happening?
00:04:13.996 --> 00:04:15.531
What is happening? well, it's dangerous
00:04:15.598 --> 00:04:16.432
Well, it's dangerous because long before the devil
00:04:16.499 --> 00:04:18.134
Because long before the devil try to produce a disease
00:04:18.201 --> 00:04:19.369
Try to produce a disease or sickness in your life,
00:04:19.435 --> 00:04:20.903
Or sickness in your life, you know what he does?
00:04:20.970 --> 00:04:21.571
You know what he does? he produces depression,
00:04:21.637 --> 00:04:24.841
He produces depression, sorrow of the world.
00:04:24.907 --> 00:04:27.410
Sorrow of the world. it's called sorrow of the world.
00:04:27.477 --> 00:04:28.811
It's called sorrow of the world. in 2 corinthians 7, verse 10, it
00:04:28.878 --> 00:04:30.680
In 2 corinthians 7, verse 10, it says, "godly sorrow produces
00:04:30.747 --> 00:04:32.849
Says, "godly sorrow produces repentance leading
00:04:32.915 --> 00:04:33.783
Repentance leading to salvation."
00:04:33.850 --> 00:04:34.450
To salvation." now, paul is writing
00:04:34.517 --> 00:04:35.184
Now, paul is writing to christians, corinthians.
00:04:35.251 --> 00:04:36.719
To christians, corinthians. so this salvation here
00:04:36.786 --> 00:04:37.854
So this salvation here is not salvation from hell.
00:04:37.920 --> 00:04:39.055
Is not salvation from hell. he's not telling them
00:04:39.122 --> 00:04:39.756
He's not telling them to be saved.
00:04:39.822 --> 00:04:40.690
To be saved. don't forget the word salvation
00:04:40.757 --> 00:04:41.858
Don't forget the word salvation is an all-inclusive word.
00:04:41.924 --> 00:04:44.227
Is an all-inclusive word. it's not just salvation from
00:04:44.293 --> 00:04:45.728
It's not just salvation from hell, all right, being saved
00:04:45.795 --> 00:04:47.196
Hell, all right, being saved from eternal punishment, all
00:04:47.263 --> 00:04:48.865
From eternal punishment, all right, saved from the kingdom
00:04:48.931 --> 00:04:50.566
Right, saved from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom
00:04:50.633 --> 00:04:51.667
Of darkness into the kingdom of light.
00:04:51.734 --> 00:04:52.335
Of light. it's also a word they used
00:04:52.402 --> 00:04:53.770
It's also a word they used for healing.
00:04:53.836 --> 00:04:54.537
For healing. for example, when jesus healed
00:04:54.604 --> 00:04:55.905
For example, when jesus healed someone, he'll say--he said,
00:04:55.972 --> 00:04:57.607
Someone, he'll say--he said, "your faith has saved you."
00:04:57.673 --> 00:04:59.375
"your faith has saved you." the woman with the issue
00:04:59.442 --> 00:05:00.042
The woman with the issue of blood, remember?
00:05:00.109 --> 00:05:00.977
Of blood, remember? look at the word saved.
00:05:01.043 --> 00:05:02.178
Look at the word saved. it's from the word salvation,
00:05:02.245 --> 00:05:03.379
It's from the word salvation, sozo.
00:05:03.446 --> 00:05:04.514
Sozo. amen?
00:05:04.580 --> 00:05:05.114
Amen? many a times the healings
00:05:05.181 --> 00:05:06.249
Many a times the healings that happen in new testament
00:05:06.315 --> 00:05:07.583
That happen in new testament is physical healing,
00:05:07.650 --> 00:05:08.518
Is physical healing, but the word salvation or sozo,
00:05:08.584 --> 00:05:10.620
But the word salvation or sozo, the verb form, is used.
00:05:10.686 --> 00:05:12.789
The verb form, is used. so it's telling you godly sorrow
00:05:12.855 --> 00:05:15.224
So it's telling you godly sorrow actually leads you to wholeness,
00:05:15.291 --> 00:05:18.828
Actually leads you to wholeness, leads you to peace of mind,
00:05:18.895 --> 00:05:20.530
Leads you to peace of mind, leads you--so it's a godly
00:05:20.596 --> 00:05:21.898
Leads you--so it's a godly sorrow that produces
00:05:21.964 --> 00:05:23.132
Sorrow that produces that change of mind.
00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:25.334
That change of mind. "but sorrow of the world
00:05:25.401 --> 00:05:27.437
"but sorrow of the world produces death."
00:05:27.503 --> 00:05:28.838
Produces death." you see that?
00:05:28.905 --> 00:05:29.939
You see that? the bible says it
00:05:30.006 --> 00:05:30.506
The bible says it produces death.
00:05:30.573 --> 00:05:31.307
Produces death. you better take it seriously.
00:05:31.374 --> 00:05:34.177
You better take it seriously. sorrow of the world works death.
00:05:34.243 --> 00:05:36.212
Sorrow of the world works death. this is serious business.
00:05:36.279 --> 00:05:38.014
This is serious business. but then jesus--listen, jesus at
00:05:38.080 --> 00:05:39.949
But then jesus--listen, jesus at the cross--isaiah 53, verse 4,
00:05:40.016 --> 00:05:44.454
The cross--isaiah 53, verse 4, "surely he has borne our griefs
00:05:44.520 --> 00:05:45.922
"surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows."
00:05:45.988 --> 00:05:47.290
And carried our sorrows." now, this is interesting.
00:05:47.356 --> 00:05:48.324
Now, this is interesting. king james version says he
00:05:48.391 --> 00:05:49.459
King james version says he carried our griefs.
00:05:49.525 --> 00:05:50.660
Carried our griefs. i got to bring this to a close
00:05:50.726 --> 00:05:51.727
I got to bring this to a close already, all right?
00:05:51.794 --> 00:05:52.995
Already, all right? because i'm just starting.
00:05:53.062 --> 00:05:55.665
Because i'm just starting. you want some more,
00:05:55.731 --> 00:05:56.432
You want some more, you keep on coming.
00:05:56.499 --> 00:05:57.099
You keep on coming. amen?
00:05:57.166 --> 00:05:58.167
Amen? "surely he bore our griefs
00:05:58.234 --> 00:06:00.169
"surely he bore our griefs and carried our sorrows."
00:06:00.236 --> 00:06:01.103
And carried our sorrows." can you see that?
00:06:01.170 --> 00:06:03.206
Can you see that? can you see that?
00:06:03.272 --> 00:06:04.006
Can you see that? king james version,
00:06:04.073 --> 00:06:04.974
King james version, new king james--many translation
00:06:05.041 --> 00:06:06.175
New king james--many translation actually say griefs and sorrows.
00:06:06.242 --> 00:06:07.643
Actually say griefs and sorrows. but actually in the hebrew
00:06:07.710 --> 00:06:11.581
But actually in the hebrew the word there should be choli
00:06:11.647 --> 00:06:13.749
The word there should be choli for griefs; sorrows, makov
00:06:13.816 --> 00:06:16.319
For griefs; sorrows, makov and--listen, choli can be used
00:06:16.385 --> 00:06:19.555
And--listen, choli can be used for griefs, but most
00:06:19.622 --> 00:06:21.657
For griefs, but most of the time--like 12 times choli
00:06:21.724 --> 00:06:25.828
Of the time--like 12 times choli is used for sicknesses,
00:06:25.895 --> 00:06:29.298
Is used for sicknesses, 5 times for diseases,
00:06:29.365 --> 00:06:33.302
5 times for diseases, only 4 times for griefs.
00:06:33.369 --> 00:06:36.105
Only 4 times for griefs. so you see the emphasis, right?
00:06:36.172 --> 00:06:38.341
So you see the emphasis, right? and then the word makov--
00:06:38.407 --> 00:06:39.242
And then the word makov-- carried our sorrows.
00:06:39.308 --> 00:06:40.142
Carried our sorrows. makov is sorrow, and, again,
00:06:40.209 --> 00:06:43.045
Makov is sorrow, and, again, most of the time the word
00:06:43.112 --> 00:06:44.614
Most of the time the word is used for diseases.
00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:46.415
Is used for diseases. is there sorrow?
00:06:46.482 --> 00:06:47.250
Is there sorrow? yes, there is sorrow.
00:06:47.316 --> 00:06:48.117
Yes, there is sorrow. but when do you--how do you know
00:06:48.184 --> 00:06:49.919
But when do you--how do you know then that jesus carried
00:06:49.986 --> 00:06:51.187
Then that jesus carried our diseases and our pains?
00:06:51.254 --> 00:06:53.089
Our diseases and our pains? first of all, i'll show you
00:06:53.155 --> 00:06:53.990
First of all, i'll show you young's translation.
00:06:54.056 --> 00:06:54.957
Young's translation. young's is a hebrew scholar.
00:06:55.024 --> 00:06:56.125
Young's is a hebrew scholar. young's says, "surely
00:06:56.192 --> 00:06:57.293
Young's says, "surely our sicknesses he has borne, and
00:06:57.360 --> 00:06:59.395
Our sicknesses he has borne, and our pains he has carried them."
00:06:59.462 --> 00:07:01.297
Our pains he has carried them." so you see it's not our sorrows.
00:07:01.364 --> 00:07:02.765
So you see it's not our sorrows. it is actually our pains
00:07:02.832 --> 00:07:04.433
It is actually our pains and our disease.
00:07:04.500 --> 00:07:06.335
And our disease. and if that is not enough--
00:07:06.402 --> 00:07:08.137
And if that is not enough-- bible interpret bible.
00:07:08.204 --> 00:07:09.372
Bible interpret bible. in the new testament in
00:07:09.438 --> 00:07:11.107
In the new testament in reference to this, it says that
00:07:11.173 --> 00:07:12.708
Reference to this, it says that jesus went around--show them
00:07:12.775 --> 00:07:14.977
Jesus went around--show them the context first.
00:07:15.044 --> 00:07:16.012
The context first. it's referring to jesus
00:07:16.078 --> 00:07:17.046
It's referring to jesus casting out demons.
00:07:17.113 --> 00:07:17.813
Casting out demons. verse 16, all right, "he--
00:07:17.880 --> 00:07:19.916
Verse 16, all right, "he-- they brought to him many
00:07:19.982 --> 00:07:20.683
They brought to him many who were demon-possessed.
00:07:20.750 --> 00:07:21.517
Who were demon-possessed. he cast out the spirits with a
00:07:21.584 --> 00:07:22.685
He cast out the spirits with a word, healed all who were sick,"
00:07:22.752 --> 00:07:25.087
Word, healed all who were sick," heal all, people, who were sick,
00:07:25.154 --> 00:07:27.757
Heal all, people, who were sick, "that it might be fulfilled
00:07:27.823 --> 00:07:28.724
"that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by isaiah
00:07:28.791 --> 00:07:29.825
Which was spoken by isaiah the prophet, saying:
00:07:29.892 --> 00:07:30.560
The prophet, saying: 'he himself took our infirmities
00:07:30.626 --> 00:07:33.529
'he himself took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses."'
00:07:33.596 --> 00:07:36.732
And bore our sicknesses."' do you see that?
00:07:36.799 --> 00:07:38.868
Do you see that? so this is in greek.
00:07:38.935 --> 00:07:39.835
So this is in greek. very clear the context
00:07:39.902 --> 00:07:42.605
Very clear the context is not--the context tells you
00:07:42.672 --> 00:07:44.507
Is not--the context tells you it's not sorrows.
00:07:44.574 --> 00:07:45.308
It's not sorrows. it's referring to he carried
00:07:45.374 --> 00:07:47.076
It's referring to he carried our diseases because he's--
00:07:47.143 --> 00:07:50.846
Our diseases because he's-- when he went around healing
00:07:50.913 --> 00:07:52.081
When he went around healing all who were
00:07:52.148 --> 00:07:52.582
All who were sick, it's like paying he--
00:07:52.648 --> 00:07:54.584
Sick, it's like paying he-- paying through, like, visa.
00:07:54.650 --> 00:07:56.619
Paying through, like, visa. he has not yet died,
00:07:56.686 --> 00:07:58.220
He has not yet died, but he--whenever someone
00:07:58.287 --> 00:08:00.790
But he--whenever someone gets healed and they go away,
00:08:00.856 --> 00:08:02.358
Gets healed and they go away, jesus says, like, to the father,
00:08:02.425 --> 00:08:03.993
Jesus says, like, to the father, "put that on my tab."
00:08:04.060 --> 00:08:07.330
"put that on my tab." he will pay for it at the cross.
00:08:07.396 --> 00:08:10.766
He will pay for it at the cross. amen?
00:08:10.833 --> 00:08:11.834
Amen? so the context is very clear,
00:08:11.901 --> 00:08:13.002
So the context is very clear, but what it tells me is this.
00:08:13.069 --> 00:08:15.004
But what it tells me is this. the hebrew word for choli
00:08:15.071 --> 00:08:17.173
The hebrew word for choli and makov is also grief
00:08:17.239 --> 00:08:19.375
And makov is also grief and sorrow, and therefore it is
00:08:19.442 --> 00:08:22.411
And sorrow, and therefore it is in the disease.
00:08:22.478 --> 00:08:25.948
In the disease. could it be the very thing
00:08:26.015 --> 00:08:27.483
Could it be the very thing since it's the--the etymology
00:08:27.550 --> 00:08:29.518
Since it's the--the etymology is there, the--is also the root
00:08:29.585 --> 00:08:31.887
Is there, the--is also the root of disease, grief and sorrow.
00:08:31.954 --> 00:08:36.792
Of disease, grief and sorrow. it should not be prolonged
00:08:36.859 --> 00:08:37.927
It should not be prolonged in your life, and that's
00:08:37.994 --> 00:08:38.961
In your life, and that's why the lord says the joy
00:08:39.028 --> 00:08:39.996
Why the lord says the joy of the lord is our strength.
00:08:40.062 --> 00:08:42.865
Of the lord is our strength. amen.
00:08:42.932 --> 00:08:44.433
Amen. you see, if i say the joy of the
00:08:44.500 --> 00:08:45.635
You see, if i say the joy of the lord is my strength, listen, the
00:08:45.701 --> 00:08:47.803
Lord is my strength, listen, the joy of the lord is my strength,
00:08:47.870 --> 00:08:49.038
Joy of the lord is my strength, that means the joy of the lord.
00:08:49.105 --> 00:08:50.973
That means the joy of the lord. the lord has joy.
00:08:51.040 --> 00:08:52.642
The lord has joy. "you know, i don't believe
00:08:52.708 --> 00:08:53.643
"you know, i don't believe in this jesus that walks around
00:08:53.709 --> 00:08:55.344
In this jesus that walks around with a face so morose."
00:08:55.411 --> 00:08:57.980
With a face so morose." "peace, be still.
00:08:58.047 --> 00:09:01.050
"peace, be still. why is it you don't have faith?
00:09:01.117 --> 00:09:03.686
Why is it you don't have faith? bring him to me."
00:09:03.753 --> 00:09:05.821
Bring him to me." then on the night
00:09:05.888 --> 00:09:06.889
Then on the night in the upper room,
00:09:06.956 --> 00:09:07.423
In the upper room, in the upper room,
00:09:07.490 --> 00:09:08.491
In the upper room, "these things
00:09:08.557 --> 00:09:09.025
"these things i say to you, that my joy,
00:09:09.091 --> 00:09:15.364
I say to you, that my joy, my joy, bartholomew,
00:09:15.431 --> 00:09:18.668
My joy, bartholomew, my joy, thomas,
00:09:18.734 --> 00:09:20.936
My joy, thomas, might remain in you."
00:09:21.003 --> 00:09:23.806
Might remain in you." and thomas says, "i doubt so,"
00:09:23.873 --> 00:09:27.510
And thomas says, "i doubt so," you know.
00:09:27.576 --> 00:09:28.044
You know. so you won't--no.
00:09:28.110 --> 00:09:31.347
So you won't--no. he came to them and says, "guys,
00:09:31.414 --> 00:09:33.349
He came to them and says, "guys, in the world you will have
00:09:33.416 --> 00:09:34.283
In the world you will have trouble, but be of good cheer.
00:09:34.350 --> 00:09:38.054
Trouble, but be of good cheer. i have overcome the world."
00:09:38.120 --> 00:09:40.089
I have overcome the world." i believe he did it
00:09:40.156 --> 00:09:40.756
I believe he did it with a smile.
00:09:40.823 --> 00:09:41.991
With a smile. "and these things i say
00:09:42.058 --> 00:09:43.125
"and these things i say to you--"
00:09:43.192 --> 00:09:43.693
To you--" sorrow has filled
00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:44.427
Sorrow has filled your heart, but listen.
00:09:44.493 --> 00:09:46.128
Your heart, but listen. "these things i say to you,
00:09:46.195 --> 00:09:47.063
"these things i say to you, that my joy might be in you and
00:09:47.129 --> 00:09:49.432
That my joy might be in you and that your joy might be full."
00:09:49.498 --> 00:09:53.169
That your joy might be full." they--i believe they had
00:09:53.235 --> 00:09:55.404
They--i believe they had so much joy, these disciples,
00:09:55.471 --> 00:09:56.772
So much joy, these disciples, with jesus.
00:09:56.839 --> 00:09:58.207
With jesus. so it's the joy--it's his joy,
00:09:58.274 --> 00:10:00.142
So it's the joy--it's his joy, the joy of the lord that is
00:10:00.209 --> 00:10:01.210
The joy of the lord that is my strength.
00:10:01.277 --> 00:10:02.645
My strength. it is not my joy.
00:10:02.712 --> 00:10:04.747
It is not my joy. can i have a good amen?
00:10:04.814 --> 00:10:05.548
Can i have a good amen? "but, pastor prince--"
00:10:05.614 --> 00:10:06.048
"but, pastor prince--" i remember years ago i was
00:10:06.115 --> 00:10:07.349
I remember years ago i was preaching in a youth group in
00:10:07.416 --> 00:10:10.319
Preaching in a youth group in a school somewhere in singapore
00:10:10.386 --> 00:10:12.722
A school somewhere in singapore and i was preaching about
00:10:12.788 --> 00:10:13.522
And i was preaching about jesus and how joyful, you know,
00:10:13.589 --> 00:10:15.391
Jesus and how joyful, you know, the lord is, and a young man
00:10:15.458 --> 00:10:17.159
The lord is, and a young man stood up while i was preaching.
00:10:17.226 --> 00:10:18.761
Stood up while i was preaching. "pastor prince, i would have you
00:10:18.828 --> 00:10:20.029
"pastor prince, i would have you know the bible--"
00:10:20.096 --> 00:10:20.930
Know the bible--" he was trying to impress me
00:10:20.996 --> 00:10:21.797
He was trying to impress me about his bible knowledge.
00:10:21.864 --> 00:10:23.432
About his bible knowledge. "pastor prince, i would have you
00:10:23.499 --> 00:10:24.400
"pastor prince, i would have you know that the bible says
00:10:24.467 --> 00:10:25.768
Know that the bible says a man of sorrows--" isaiah 53,
00:10:25.835 --> 00:10:28.537
A man of sorrows--" isaiah 53, you know, verse 3, right?
00:10:28.604 --> 00:10:33.542
You know, verse 3, right? a man of sorrows, he is despised
00:10:33.609 --> 00:10:35.377
A man of sorrows, he is despised and rejected by men.
00:10:35.444 --> 00:10:36.445
And rejected by men. see, a man of sorrows.
00:10:36.512 --> 00:10:37.513
See, a man of sorrows. but i just read verse 4 for you.
00:10:37.580 --> 00:10:39.081
But i just read verse 4 for you. the context there is referring
00:10:39.148 --> 00:10:41.617
The context there is referring to the cross, referring
00:10:41.684 --> 00:10:43.219
To the cross, referring to his suffering, his passion.
00:10:43.285 --> 00:10:45.387
To his suffering, his passion. so i told this young man, "yeah,
00:10:45.454 --> 00:10:46.789
So i told this young man, "yeah, where do you find that verse?"
00:10:46.856 --> 00:10:48.190
Where do you find that verse?" "oh, it's in the bible."
00:10:48.257 --> 00:10:50.025
"oh, it's in the bible." i said, "no.
00:10:50.092 --> 00:10:50.559
I said, "no. which part of the bible?"
00:10:50.626 --> 00:10:51.460
Which part of the bible?" he says, "i--somewhere
00:10:51.527 --> 00:10:54.063
He says, "i--somewhere in the bible."
00:10:54.130 --> 00:10:54.830
In the bible." i said, "i'll quote to you,
00:10:54.897 --> 00:10:55.631
I said, "i'll quote to you, okay?
00:10:55.698 --> 00:10:56.198
Okay? isaiah 53, a man of sorrows."
00:10:56.265 --> 00:10:58.300
Isaiah 53, a man of sorrows." the only time he's called
00:10:58.367 --> 00:10:59.502
The only time he's called a man of sorrows is when he went
00:10:59.568 --> 00:11:01.170
A man of sorrows is when he went through--he carried our sins
00:11:01.237 --> 00:11:02.605
Through--he carried our sins and went through it.
00:11:02.671 --> 00:11:05.307
And went through it. he's always joyful.

'thy throne, o god--"' see, the father god
00:11:19.989 --> 00:11:21.090
See, the father god calls the son god.

Thou hast loved righteousness and hated iniquity.
00:11:31.333 --> 00:11:32.701
And hated iniquity. therefore god, even thy god
00:11:32.768 --> 00:11:34.303
Therefore god, even thy god has anointed thee with the oil
00:11:34.370 --> 00:11:36.572
Has anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows."
00:11:36.639 --> 00:11:39.875
Can you imagine that?
00:11:39.942 --> 00:11:40.776

00:11:40.843 --> 00:11:41.944
He's anointed with the oil of gladness above his fellows.
00:11:42.011 --> 00:11:46.482
Of gladness above his fellows. amen.

World, and they are increasing. they are even doing it
00:12:07.169 --> 00:12:07.770
They are even doing it in singapore.
00:12:07.837 --> 00:12:10.372
In singapore. we need to reach out with joy.
00:12:10.439 --> 00:12:14.577
We need to reach out with joy. you might think that they are
00:12:14.643 --> 00:12:15.377
You might think that they are happy because they're--when you
00:12:15.444 --> 00:12:17.146
Happy because they're--when you see them in a group they are
00:12:17.213 --> 00:12:18.080

Is a kind of joke that is-- a laughter that is empty.
00:12:23.619 --> 00:12:26.455
A laughter that is empty. deep down, they're not happy.
00:12:26.522 --> 00:12:30.426
Amen?
00:12:30.492 --> 00:12:30.926
Amen? so if jesus is anointed
00:12:30.993 --> 00:12:32.094
So if jesus is anointed with the oil of gladness
00:12:32.161 --> 00:12:33.829
With the oil of gladness above his fellows--have you seen
00:12:33.896 --> 00:12:36.699
Above his fellows--have you seen pastor mark?
00:12:36.765 --> 00:12:39.068
Pastor mark? he can stand down here and laugh
00:12:39.134 --> 00:12:40.302
He can stand down here and laugh for hours, you know.
00:12:40.369 --> 00:12:42.638
Right?
00:12:42.705 --> 00:12:43.439
Right? if he's anointed with the oil of

If he's anointed with the oil of gladness above all his fellows,
00:12:44.573 --> 00:12:47.243
Gladness above all his fellows, referring to all the believers,
00:12:47.309 --> 00:12:48.377
Referring to all the believers, all his disciples, all that,
00:12:48.444 --> 00:12:49.712
All his disciples, all that, he's the most joyful one.
00:12:49.778 --> 00:12:52.314
He's the most joyful one. no wonder he says that, "that my
00:12:52.381 --> 00:12:53.249
No wonder he says that, "that my joy might remain in you and that
00:12:53.315 --> 00:12:54.550
Joy might remain in you and that your joy might be full."
00:12:54.617 --> 00:12:55.551
Your joy might be full." yours is still not full.
00:12:55.618 --> 00:12:58.053
Yours is still not full. i want it to be full.
00:12:58.120 --> 00:13:00.556
I want it to be full. amen?
00:13:00.623 --> 00:13:01.056
Amen? the only time the bible tells us
00:13:01.123 --> 00:13:02.958
The only time the bible tells us that he ever said,
00:13:03.025 --> 00:13:04.493
That he ever said, "i'm so sorrowful,"
00:13:04.560 --> 00:13:05.661
"i'm so sorrowful," was in the garden
00:13:05.728 --> 00:13:06.729
Was in the garden when the passion
00:13:06.795 --> 00:13:07.830
When the passion started, all right?
00:13:07.897 --> 00:13:09.832
Started, all right? he says in matthew 22--26,
00:13:09.899 --> 00:13:11.901
He says in matthew 22--26, "then he said to them,"
00:13:11.967 --> 00:13:12.968
"then he said to them," his disciples, "my soul--"
00:13:13.035 --> 00:13:16.038
His disciples, "my soul--" i believe he said it, "my soul,"
00:13:16.105 --> 00:13:18.207
I believe he said it, "my soul," probably got tears,
00:13:18.274 --> 00:13:18.908
Probably got tears, "is exceeding sorrowful."
00:13:18.974 --> 00:13:22.077
"is exceeding sorrowful." because why?
00:13:22.144 --> 00:13:22.778
Because why? the sorrow of the world
00:13:22.845 --> 00:13:23.612
The sorrow of the world is now coming on him.
00:13:23.679 --> 00:13:25.414
Is now coming on him. he's going to carry it.
00:13:25.481 --> 00:13:27.349
He's going to carry it. "it's exceeding sorrowful,
00:13:27.416 --> 00:13:29.318
Even to death."
00:13:30.586 --> 00:13:33.589
Even to death." imagine the lord saying it's
00:13:33.656 --> 00:13:35.124
Imagine the lord saying it's a sorrow that leads to death.
00:13:35.190 --> 00:13:38.894
It's not his.
00:13:40.562 --> 00:13:41.163
It's not his. he will never talk like that.
00:13:41.230 --> 00:13:43.565
He will never talk like that. he said just
00:13:43.632 --> 00:13:44.934
He said just in the upper room--
00:13:45.000 --> 00:13:45.935
In the upper room-- just a few hours before this,
00:13:46.001 --> 00:13:47.503
Just a few hours before this, in the garden of gethsemane,
00:13:47.569 --> 00:13:48.337
In the garden of gethsemane, he was in the upper room.
00:13:48.404 --> 00:13:49.138
He was in the upper room. he says that,
00:13:49.204 --> 00:13:49.638
He says that, "my joy might remain in you."
00:13:49.705 --> 00:13:51.907
"my joy might remain in you." something happened.
00:13:51.974 --> 00:13:53.208
Something happened. he's no longer jesus the king,
00:13:53.275 --> 00:14:00.849
He's no longer jesus the king, jesus the good shepherd, right,
00:14:00.916 --> 00:14:05.754
Jesus the good shepherd, right, that watched over his--now he's
00:14:05.821 --> 00:14:07.756
That watched over his--now he's becoming jesus the lamb of god.
00:14:07.823 --> 00:14:10.192
Becoming jesus the lamb of god. the shepherd has become
00:14:10.259 --> 00:14:11.026
The shepherd has become the lamb.
00:14:11.093 --> 00:14:12.962
The lamb. so it is our sins
00:14:13.028 --> 00:14:14.029
So it is our sins that he's carrying.
00:14:14.096 --> 00:14:15.331
That he's carrying. it is our curse that he bore.
00:14:15.397 --> 00:14:17.299
It is our curse that he bore. it is our sorrow
00:14:17.366 --> 00:14:20.002
It is our sorrow that afflicted him.
00:14:20.069 --> 00:14:22.037
That afflicted him. he carried that depression
00:14:22.104 --> 00:14:23.939
He carried that depression that you feel at night when you
00:14:24.006 --> 00:14:26.075
That you feel at night when you think that no one knows.
00:14:26.141 --> 00:14:27.743
Think that no one knows. you feel all alone, but you feel
00:14:27.810 --> 00:14:29.211
You feel all alone, but you feel like the whole room
00:14:29.278 --> 00:14:29.979
Like the whole room is getting dark.
00:14:30.045 --> 00:14:30.813
Is getting dark. jesus carried that.
00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:33.916
Jesus carried that. he carried your exceeding
00:14:33.983 --> 00:14:36.752
He carried your exceeding sorrowful, that feeling
00:14:36.819 --> 00:14:37.853
Sorrowful, that feeling like killing yourself,
00:14:37.920 --> 00:14:39.321
Like killing yourself, even unto death.
00:14:39.388 --> 00:14:41.323
Even unto death. he carried it even unto death.
00:14:41.390 --> 00:14:43.292
Now, jesus
00:14:44.460 --> 00:14:44.893
Now, jesus did not contemplate suicide.
00:14:44.960 --> 00:14:47.129
Did not contemplate suicide. no, no, no, no.
00:14:47.196 --> 00:14:48.764
No, no, no, no. but he carried that
00:14:48.831 --> 00:14:51.200
But he carried that even to death.
00:14:51.266 --> 00:14:53.168
"'stay here and watch with me.'
00:14:54.036 --> 00:14:55.404
"'stay here and watch with me.' he went a little farther and
00:14:55.471 --> 00:14:56.772
He went a little farther and fell on his face, and prayed,"
00:14:56.839 --> 00:14:58.140
Fell on his face, and prayed," you see in the garden,
00:14:58.207 --> 00:14:59.241
You see in the garden, "oh father, if it's possible,
00:14:59.308 --> 00:15:01.176
"oh father, if it's possible, let this cup pass from me;
00:15:01.243 --> 00:15:02.511
Let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as i will,
00:15:02.578 --> 00:15:03.912
Nevertheless, not as i will, but as you will."
00:15:03.979 --> 00:15:05.114
But as you will." no wonder the father loves
00:15:05.180 --> 00:15:05.781
No wonder the father loves the son.
00:15:05.848 --> 00:15:07.750
Amen?
00:15:08.817 --> 00:15:10.152
Amen? he's the son whom the father
00:15:10.219 --> 00:15:12.221
He's the son whom the father is well pleased.
00:15:12.287 --> 00:15:13.589
Is well pleased. you say, "i don't understand,
00:15:13.655 --> 00:15:15.190
You say, "i don't understand, pastor.
00:15:15.257 --> 00:15:15.858
Pastor. he's jesus.
00:15:15.924 --> 00:15:16.959
He's jesus. he can handle all these things."
00:15:17.026 --> 00:15:17.893
He can handle all these things." let me tell you something, okay?
00:15:17.960 --> 00:15:19.461
Let me tell you something, okay? you have never been
00:15:19.528 --> 00:15:20.629
You have never been where he was.
00:15:20.696 --> 00:15:23.298
Where he was. can you imagine the holy--
00:15:23.365 --> 00:15:25.134
Can you imagine the holy-- the son of god?
00:15:25.200 --> 00:15:26.502
The son of god? his nature is holy, all right?
00:15:26.568 --> 00:15:29.338
His nature is holy, all right? he's full of grace, and that's
00:15:29.405 --> 00:15:31.240
He's full of grace, and that's why his holiness is not like,
00:15:31.306 --> 00:15:33.075
Why his holiness is not like, "i stand here, okay?
00:15:33.142 --> 00:15:34.810
"i stand here, okay? i'm too holy for you
00:15:34.877 --> 00:15:35.811
I'm too holy for you to come near or to touch."
00:15:35.878 --> 00:15:37.679
To come near or to touch." no, no, no.
00:15:37.746 --> 00:15:38.447
No, no, no. his holiness has sinners
00:15:38.514 --> 00:15:39.581
His holiness has sinners around him, amen, yet he
00:15:39.648 --> 00:15:42.184
Around him, amen, yet he never was defiled by them.
00:15:42.251 --> 00:15:44.386
Never was defiled by them. they were touched by him, amen,
00:15:44.453 --> 00:15:47.556
They were touched by him, amen, into wholeness, into holiness.
00:15:47.623 --> 00:15:51.894
Into wholeness, into holiness. but here jesus took our sorrows.
00:15:51.960 --> 00:15:58.267
But here jesus took our sorrows. he felt the pain of it,
00:15:58.333 --> 00:15:59.501
He felt the pain of it, the weight of it.
00:15:59.568 --> 00:16:00.335
The weight of it. but especially if you are
00:16:00.402 --> 00:16:02.137
But especially if you are jesus--we can't imagine because
00:16:02.204 --> 00:16:04.440
Jesus--we can't imagine because all of us, our minds
00:16:04.506 --> 00:16:05.374
All of us, our minds are defiled, dirty
00:16:05.441 --> 00:16:06.775
Are defiled, dirty and we think it's natural.
00:16:06.842 --> 00:16:08.177
And we think it's natural. for the son of god, he never
00:16:08.243 --> 00:16:09.645
For the son of god, he never experienced sin one time.
00:16:09.711 --> 00:16:12.781
Experienced sin one time. the very thought of sin he
00:16:12.848 --> 00:16:14.383
The very thought of sin he shudders.
00:16:14.450 --> 00:16:15.684
Shudders. it's not in his nature.
00:16:15.751 --> 00:16:18.620
It's not in his nature. but to think that's--just
00:16:18.687 --> 00:16:20.556
But to think that's--just the contemplation that in a few
00:16:20.622 --> 00:16:22.424
The contemplation that in a few hours he'll be on the cross,
00:16:22.491 --> 00:16:24.760
Hours he'll be on the cross, and he who knew no sin
00:16:24.827 --> 00:16:27.262
And he who knew no sin will be made sin with our sin.
00:16:27.329 --> 00:16:31.900
Will be made sin with our sin. not just carry our sins,
00:16:31.967 --> 00:16:33.735
Not just carry our sins, be made sin at the cross.
00:16:33.802 --> 00:16:40.375
Be made sin at the cross. that thought is like a holy
00:16:40.442 --> 00:16:45.013
That thought is like a holy shock reverberated through
00:16:45.080 --> 00:16:48.117
Shock reverberated through his body, his whole being.
00:16:48.183 --> 00:16:50.385
His body, his whole being. it's like--almost like he take
00:16:50.452 --> 00:16:52.087
It's like--almost like he take the cup, the cup that symbolized
00:16:52.154 --> 00:16:53.755
The cup, the cup that symbolized all the judgment
00:16:53.822 --> 00:16:54.990
All the judgment and the condemnation,
00:16:55.057 --> 00:16:56.391
And the condemnation, all our uncleanness
00:16:56.458 --> 00:16:57.259
All our uncleanness and all that.
00:16:57.326 --> 00:16:57.793
And all that. he pushed it aside.
00:16:57.860 --> 00:16:58.460
He pushed it aside. "father, if it's possible,
00:16:58.527 --> 00:16:59.461
"father, if it's possible, take this cup from me."
00:16:59.528 --> 00:17:01.497
Take this cup from me." the book of hebrews, he cried
00:17:01.563 --> 00:17:03.232
The book of hebrews, he cried with strong crying because you
00:17:03.298 --> 00:17:05.801
With strong crying because you should know the nature
00:17:05.868 --> 00:17:08.103
Should know the nature of our lord jesus.
00:17:08.170 --> 00:17:10.272
Of our lord jesus. but he saw you.
00:17:10.339 --> 00:17:11.974
But he saw you. he saw you, he saw you,
00:17:12.040 --> 00:17:15.144
He saw you, he saw you, he saw you, he saw you.
00:17:15.210 --> 00:17:18.547
He saw you, he saw you. he saw me and he--"father,
00:17:18.614 --> 00:17:22.217
He saw me and he--"father, if it's not possible,
00:17:22.284 --> 00:17:23.051
If it's not possible, there's no other way,
00:17:23.118 --> 00:17:24.553
There's no other way, not my will,
00:17:24.620 --> 00:17:26.522
Not my will, but your will be done."
00:17:26.588 --> 00:17:28.290
But your will be done." and he drank it
00:17:28.357 --> 00:17:29.091
And he drank it to this very dregs.
00:17:29.158 --> 00:17:33.662
To this very dregs. amen.
00:17:33.729 --> 00:17:34.997
Amen. that's the love that he has
00:17:35.063 --> 00:17:36.899
That's the love that he has for us.
00:17:36.965 --> 00:17:38.200
For us. so he bore it in his own being.
00:17:38.267 --> 00:17:41.703
So he bore it in his own being. do you know that this is
00:17:41.770 --> 00:17:42.971
Do you know that this is the reason why the old testament
00:17:43.038 --> 00:17:44.540
The reason why the old testament people were freed
00:17:44.606 --> 00:17:45.374
People were freed from depression and all that?
00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:47.442
From depression and all that? you all know the story, right?
00:17:47.509 --> 00:17:48.677
You all know the story, right? you heard in the camp recently
00:17:48.744 --> 00:17:50.179
You heard in the camp recently also, for those of you who were
00:17:50.245 --> 00:17:51.446
Also, for those of you who were at camp, about the deliverance
00:17:51.513 --> 00:17:53.515
At camp, about the deliverance of the evil spirit
00:17:53.582 --> 00:17:55.184
Of the evil spirit through worship, right?
00:17:55.250 --> 00:17:57.619
Through worship, right? but if you look at the word
00:17:57.686 --> 00:17:58.987
But if you look at the word of the evil spirit coming
00:17:59.054 --> 00:17:59.988
Of the evil spirit coming on king saul--by the way, they
00:18:00.055 --> 00:18:01.757
On king saul--by the way, they say the evil spirit from god.
00:18:01.823 --> 00:18:03.125
Say the evil spirit from god. that's an expression
00:18:03.192 --> 00:18:03.926
That's an expression in hebraism.
00:18:03.992 --> 00:18:05.527
In hebraism. okay, listen carefully.
00:18:05.594 --> 00:18:06.228
Okay, listen carefully. in hebraism, they say even
00:18:06.295 --> 00:18:08.063
In hebraism, they say even bad things from god because they
00:18:08.130 --> 00:18:09.932
Bad things from god because they show god as sovereign,
00:18:09.998 --> 00:18:11.533
Show god as sovereign, but not the one initiating it
00:18:11.600 --> 00:18:14.403
But not the one initiating it but allowing it to happen
00:18:14.469 --> 00:18:15.804
But allowing it to happen because of man's sin, okay?
00:18:15.871 --> 00:18:18.040
Because of man's sin, okay? that is always hebraism
00:18:18.106 --> 00:18:19.841
That is always hebraism when they say it's from god.
00:18:19.908 --> 00:18:20.809
When they say it's from god. it's not from god, okay?
00:18:20.876 --> 00:18:22.945
It's not from god, okay? it's from the devil,
00:18:23.011 --> 00:18:24.179
It's from the devil, but god allowed it.
00:18:24.246 --> 00:18:26.348
But god allowed it. so they see god as sovereign,
00:18:26.415 --> 00:18:28.417
So they see god as sovereign, okay?
00:18:28.483 --> 00:18:28.917
Okay? that's how the people--
00:18:28.984 --> 00:18:30.319
That's how the people-- the semitic people speak.
00:18:30.385 --> 00:18:32.754
The semitic people speak. one day i'll teach on this,
00:18:32.821 --> 00:18:34.189
One day i'll teach on this, how when the bible says the lord
00:18:34.256 --> 00:18:35.123
How when the bible says the lord will cause this pestilence on
00:18:35.190 --> 00:18:36.258
Will cause this pestilence on it, how young's thought it also.
00:18:36.325 --> 00:18:38.727
It, how young's thought it also. okay, now--but watch this first.
00:18:38.794 --> 00:18:40.229
Okay, now--but watch this first. this is 1 samuel.
00:18:40.295 --> 00:18:41.363
This is 1 samuel. "it came to pass, when the evil
00:18:41.430 --> 00:18:42.564
"it came to pass, when the evil spirit from god was upon saul,
00:18:42.631 --> 00:18:44.266
Spirit from god was upon saul, that david took an harp, and
00:18:44.333 --> 00:18:45.801
That david took an harp, and played with his hand: so saul
00:18:45.867 --> 00:18:47.069
Played with his hand: so saul was refreshed, and was well,
00:18:47.135 --> 00:18:48.337
Was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit
00:18:48.403 --> 00:18:49.037
And the evil spirit departed from him."
00:18:49.104 --> 00:18:50.339
Departed from him." so it's anointing
00:18:50.405 --> 00:18:51.440
So it's anointing on david's playing.
00:18:51.506 --> 00:18:52.975
On david's playing. david was a worshiper.
00:18:53.041 --> 00:18:54.109
David was a worshiper. do you see that?
00:18:54.176 --> 00:18:55.410
Do you see that? but this word "evil spirit"
00:18:55.477 --> 00:18:57.846
But this word "evil spirit" in hebrew is ra'a, but ra'a
00:18:57.913 --> 00:19:00.249
In hebrew is ra'a, but ra'a is an all-inclusive word.
00:19:00.315 --> 00:19:02.384
Is an all-inclusive word. it can mean a lot of things.
00:19:02.451 --> 00:19:03.619
It can mean a lot of things. you--they are all evil.
00:19:03.685 --> 00:19:04.753
You--they are all evil. they are all dark.
00:19:04.820 --> 00:19:06.888
They are all dark. they are all negative.
00:19:06.955 --> 00:19:08.757
They are all negative. but young's, who is an
00:19:08.824 --> 00:19:10.125
But young's, who is an exceptional hebrew scholar--in
00:19:10.192 --> 00:19:12.160
Exceptional hebrew scholar--in young's literal translation he
00:19:12.227 --> 00:19:14.162
Young's literal translation he says, "it come--it has come to
00:19:14.229 --> 00:19:15.864
Says, "it come--it has come to pass, in the spirit of [sadness
00:19:15.931 --> 00:19:19.668
Pass, in the spirit of [sadness from] god being on saul,
00:19:19.735 --> 00:19:21.370
From] god being on saul, that david took his harp, played
00:19:21.436 --> 00:19:22.771
That david took his harp, played his hands, saul has refreshment
00:19:22.838 --> 00:19:24.339
His hands, saul has refreshment and gladness, and the spirit
00:19:24.406 --> 00:19:25.307
And gladness, and the spirit of sadness has turned aside
00:19:25.374 --> 00:19:26.341
Of sadness has turned aside from off him."
00:19:26.408 --> 00:19:27.409
From off him." he calls it a spirit of sadness
00:19:27.476 --> 00:19:30.679
He calls it a spirit of sadness came to saul.
00:19:30.746 --> 00:19:31.913
Came to saul. he was melancholic.
00:19:31.980 --> 00:19:33.248
He was melancholic. he was depressed.
00:19:33.315 --> 00:19:35.651
He was depressed. amen.
00:19:35.717 --> 00:19:37.085
Amen. and that's why the joy
00:19:37.152 --> 00:19:37.819
And that's why the joy of the lord is our strength.
00:19:37.886 --> 00:19:39.655
Of the lord is our strength. and i'll close with this.
00:19:39.721 --> 00:19:40.722
And i'll close with this. listen, i'll close with this.
00:19:40.789 --> 00:19:42.658
Listen, i'll close with this. in the new testament, peter
00:19:42.724 --> 00:19:44.693
In the new testament, peter says--"pastor, i heard you
00:19:44.760 --> 00:19:46.662
Says--"pastor, i heard you preach on this before."
00:19:46.728 --> 00:19:47.929
Preach on this before." did you?

00:19:49.731 --> 00:19:50.465

Preacher or not, all right? philippians 3:1, paul,
00:20:10.485 --> 00:20:13.155
Philippians 3:1, paul, the greatest apostle i believe
00:20:13.221 --> 00:20:14.690
The greatest apostle i believe that ever lived, he says, "my

That ever lived, he says, "my brethren--finally, my brethren,

But what did he say? "for me to write the same things

And again and again and again. but let's ask this question
