- 00:01:28.398 --> 00:01:31.000
- And now, here is pastor joseph prince
- 00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:33.102
- With today's program.
- 00:01:33.102 --> 00:01:34.571
- Joseph prince: the bible says as we face the future, we have
- 00:01:34.571 --> 00:01:37.473
- To have the helmet of salvation on, amen, because it's part
- 00:01:37.473 --> 00:01:41.077
- Of our spiritual warfare.
- 00:01:41.077 --> 00:01:43.646
- That that helmet of the hope of salvation is something that i
- 00:01:43.646 --> 00:01:47.684
- See that the body of christ needs more than ever
- 00:01:47.684 --> 00:01:50.386
- In these days that we are in.
- 00:01:50.386 --> 00:01:52.288
- My friend, i want to share with you something about the hope of
- 00:01:52.288 --> 00:01:54.657
- Salvation that is found in the gospel of jesus christ, amen.
- 00:01:54.657 --> 00:01:59.262
- 2 corinthians chapter 4, it tells us clearly, "even if our
- 00:01:59.262 --> 00:02:02.398
- Gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing,
- 00:02:02.398 --> 00:02:06.936
- Whose minds the god of this age has blinded."
- 00:02:06.936 --> 00:02:11.507
- "the god of this age," the small g-o-d,
- 00:02:11.507 --> 00:02:13.743
- Refers to the devil, amen.
- 00:02:13.743 --> 00:02:16.980
- Actually, in a sense, god made adam to be the ruler
- 00:02:16.980 --> 00:02:21.384
- Of this world, but adam committed high treason,
- 00:02:21.384 --> 00:02:25.488
- Bowed his knee to the devil, and as a result, all men fell.
- 00:02:25.488 --> 00:02:29.559
- When men fell, all creation fell, and that's why the world
- 00:02:29.559 --> 00:02:33.896
- Is not in a good shape, because of adam's sin.
- 00:02:33.896 --> 00:02:38.201
- And the bible says the devil plays as a small g-o-d
- 00:02:38.201 --> 00:02:41.704
- Of this age, and notice, he blinds the minds of people
- 00:02:41.704 --> 00:02:46.476
- "who do not believe," notice that phrase,
- 00:02:46.476 --> 00:02:48.378
- "who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory
- 00:02:48.378 --> 00:02:52.382
- Of christ, who is the image of god, should shine on them."
- 00:02:52.382 --> 00:02:56.119
- Friends, this gospel that we are preaching is so radiant.
- 00:02:56.119 --> 00:03:02.392
- It is glorious, amen, that the devil has to blind
- 00:03:02.392 --> 00:03:06.896
- People's minds to it.
- 00:03:06.896 --> 00:03:08.564
- You know, the gospel that we preach is not glorious.
- 00:03:08.564 --> 00:03:11.200
- It is not beautiful.
- 00:03:11.200 --> 00:03:12.535
- It is not radiant, amen.
- 00:03:12.535 --> 00:03:15.004
- Why would the devil need to blind people's minds?
- 00:03:15.004 --> 00:03:19.142
- Let them see it.
- 00:03:19.142 --> 00:03:20.143
- No, the gospel of christ is like no other, amen.
- 00:03:20.143 --> 00:03:23.946
- The bible says, in that gospel "the righteousness of god is
- 00:03:23.946 --> 00:03:28.418
- Revealed from faith to faith," and that righteousness is given
- 00:03:28.418 --> 00:03:31.721
- To us as a gift, and we receive that gift, amen, it transforms
- 00:03:31.721 --> 00:03:35.758
- Us, amen.
- 00:03:35.758 --> 00:03:36.926
- Righteousness first before sanctification, before holiness.
- 00:03:36.926 --> 00:03:40.296
- You cannot try to be holy without being established
- 00:03:40.296 --> 00:03:43.032
- In righteousness, amen?
- 00:03:43.032 --> 00:03:44.701
- Even the bible says christ is made unto us wisdom.
- 00:03:44.701 --> 00:03:47.503
- Seeing the whole picture of god's plan and purposes in this
- 00:03:47.503 --> 00:03:50.840
- Gospel, and then after wisdom, being made to us wisdom,
- 00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:54.510
- It says christ has made unto us righteousness, and then he
- 00:03:54.510 --> 00:03:58.648
- Has made unto us sanctification in that order.
- 00:03:58.648 --> 00:04:01.284
- So we need to follow the pattern, amen.
- 00:04:01.284 --> 00:04:04.120
- Those he justified, them he also glorified.
- 00:04:04.120 --> 00:04:07.857
- The pattern is always righteousness, justification,
- 00:04:07.857 --> 00:04:12.028
- Before glorification, amen.
- 00:04:12.028 --> 00:04:13.896
- God wants his glory to shine through you, my friend, amen?
- 00:04:13.896 --> 00:04:16.966
- So the devil wants to blind people's minds, lest the light
- 00:04:16.966 --> 00:04:19.936
- Of the glorious gospel of christ should shine unto them, amen.
- 00:04:19.936 --> 00:04:24.207
- So notice that the mind is the area where the devil tries
- 00:04:24.207 --> 00:04:27.276
- To blind, and i just want to say a word here to all the believers
- 00:04:27.276 --> 00:04:31.314
- That are being oppressed, going through depression, and going
- 00:04:31.314 --> 00:04:36.185
- Through all kinds of, you know, mind games, and you feel like
- 00:04:36.185 --> 00:04:39.555
- At night you can't even sleep because you have all these
- 00:04:39.555 --> 00:04:42.191
- Thoughts you are battling.
- 00:04:42.191 --> 00:04:43.426
- Even your body is still, right, your mind is like a war room,
- 00:04:43.426 --> 00:04:49.298
- You know, and you hear all kinds of thoughts, and i know because
- 00:04:49.298 --> 00:04:53.069
- I've been there before, amen, and friend, this is warfare,
- 00:04:53.069 --> 00:04:56.572
- And god has given us weapons and our weapons are not
- 00:04:56.572 --> 00:04:59.142
- Material, they are not carnal.
- 00:04:59.142 --> 00:05:01.010
- Look at this.
- 00:05:01.010 --> 00:05:02.278
- 2 corinthians 10, "the weapons of our warfare are not carnal
- 00:05:02.278 --> 00:05:06.449
- But mighty in god for pulling down strongholds."
- 00:05:06.449 --> 00:05:10.319
- Now, carnal means anything you can do naturally, amen.
- 00:05:10.319 --> 00:05:14.757
- No, no, god's weapons are not carnal, and when it's not carnal
- 00:05:14.757 --> 00:05:17.927
- It means god's weapons are spiritual,
- 00:05:17.927 --> 00:05:19.762
- Amen, but they are mighty.
- 00:05:19.762 --> 00:05:21.764
- So, "the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty
- 00:05:21.764 --> 00:05:24.300
- In god," for what?
- 00:05:24.300 --> 00:05:25.301
- "for pulling down strongholds."
- 00:05:25.301 --> 00:05:27.670
- Now notice, where are these strongholds?
- 00:05:27.737 --> 00:05:29.806
- They are called strongholds because they have been erected
- 00:05:29.806 --> 00:05:32.642
- By the enemy and it is a stronghold.
- 00:05:32.642 --> 00:05:34.744
- If we can find where the strongholds are,
- 00:05:34.744 --> 00:05:36.946
- We can bring it down, right?
- 00:05:36.946 --> 00:05:38.648
- Maybe you have a stronghold of fear in your life and you
- 00:05:38.648 --> 00:05:41.884
- Don't know how to get around it.
- 00:05:41.884 --> 00:05:43.119
- The more you try to tell yourself, i will not be afraid,
- 00:05:43.119 --> 00:05:45.388
- I will not be afraid, you end up afraid.
- 00:05:45.388 --> 00:05:47.557
- You know, it's like people who listen to what job says
- 00:05:47.557 --> 00:05:51.394
- About his predicament.
- 00:05:51.394 --> 00:05:52.962
- He said that, "the thing which i greatly fear has come upon me,"
- 00:05:52.962 --> 00:05:55.932
- And then we have preachers that say, "whatever your fear
- 00:05:55.932 --> 00:05:57.834
- Will come on you," and then people are more fearful.
- 00:05:57.834 --> 00:06:00.403
- I think we got to teach it in such a way that we need
- 00:06:00.403 --> 00:06:02.371
- To unveil the love of god, amen, to the people so that it's
- 00:06:02.371 --> 00:06:05.475
- The perfect love of god that casts out fear.
- 00:06:05.475 --> 00:06:07.810
- We don't focus on fear to get rid of fear, amen?
- 00:06:07.810 --> 00:06:11.013
- We experience the love of god to have that fear, amen,
- 00:06:11.013 --> 00:06:15.885
- Evicted, amen, from its place in our hearts.
- 00:06:15.885 --> 00:06:19.088
- Praise the lord.
- 00:06:19.088 --> 00:06:20.323
- Only the love of god, and the more we discover the love of
- 00:06:20.323 --> 00:06:22.258
- God--so god bless every preacher that unveils the love of christ
- 00:06:22.258 --> 00:06:26.696
- For the people, amen!
- 00:06:26.696 --> 00:06:28.064
- Amen, thank you, jesus, and notice also that the bible
- 00:06:28.064 --> 00:06:31.567
- Says that this pulling down of strongholds is actually
- 00:06:31.567 --> 00:06:34.737
- "casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts
- 00:06:34.737 --> 00:06:39.108
- Itself against the knowledge of god, bringing every thought
- 00:06:39.108 --> 00:06:42.745
- Into captivity to the obedience of christ."
- 00:06:42.745 --> 00:06:45.481
- So that's our warfare.
- 00:06:45.481 --> 00:06:46.749
- It's in our mind.
- 00:06:46.749 --> 00:06:47.917
- Okay, "the weapons of our warfare is not carnal
- 00:06:47.917 --> 00:06:49.619
- But mighty in god for pulling down strongholds."
- 00:06:49.619 --> 00:06:52.255
- Thank god, the weapons of god are mighty.
- 00:06:52.255 --> 00:06:55.057
- For what, the pulling down of strongholds.
- 00:06:55.057 --> 00:06:57.360
- Let's pull them down in jesus's name today, amen?
- 00:06:57.360 --> 00:06:59.929
- Praise the lord.
- 00:06:59.929 --> 00:07:01.030
- And notice that these strongholds are actually
- 00:07:01.030 --> 00:07:04.767
- Arguments that the devil has put in your mind
- 00:07:04.767 --> 00:07:07.570
- And they are actually thoughts.
- 00:07:07.570 --> 00:07:10.106
- Notice, "arguments and every high thing,"
- 00:07:10.106 --> 00:07:13.276
- "every thought."
- 00:07:13.276 --> 00:07:14.310
- So these are thoughts, and what the devil does
- 00:07:14.310 --> 00:07:17.013
- Is that he comes to you and puts a thought
- 00:07:17.013 --> 00:07:19.448
- In your mind, and this is the nature of the warfare.
- 00:07:19.448 --> 00:07:22.718
- The warfare is not outside.
- 00:07:22.718 --> 00:07:24.387
- You know, it's not a matter of like, meeting someone and then
- 00:07:24.387 --> 00:07:27.223
- They are demon possessed, and that's warfare,
- 00:07:27.223 --> 00:07:29.125
- We command it to come out.
- 00:07:29.125 --> 00:07:30.259
- No, that's casting out demons, it's different, amen.
- 00:07:30.259 --> 00:07:33.462
- Spiritual warfare, we need to know first and foremost,
- 00:07:33.462 --> 00:07:35.698
- Where is the arena of the spiritual warfare?
- 00:07:35.698 --> 00:07:38.768
- Where is it taking place?
- 00:07:38.768 --> 00:07:40.102
- If we do not know where it's happening, we do not know where
- 00:07:40.102 --> 00:07:42.738
- The warfare is taking place, how can you fight, right, and--you
- 00:07:42.738 --> 00:07:48.044
- Know, it's like you can't even find where the game is held.
- 00:07:48.044 --> 00:07:51.914
- You'll be going to the wrong stadium
- 00:07:51.914 --> 00:07:53.749
- To watch a different game altogether, amen.
- 00:07:53.749 --> 00:07:55.885
- You need to know where it's happening, praise god,
- 00:07:55.885 --> 00:07:57.920
- And it's happening in our mind.
- 00:07:57.920 --> 00:07:59.455
- So the mind is the battle arena, all right.
- 00:07:59.455 --> 00:08:03.526
- That's where it happens, and the devil's stronghold is
- 00:08:03.526 --> 00:08:06.429
- Actually a pattern of thinking that he has put into your mind
- 00:08:06.429 --> 00:08:11.100
- That has grown into a stronghold after a number of months, after
- 00:08:11.100 --> 00:08:16.539
- A number of days, and sometimes even a number of years.
- 00:08:16.539 --> 00:08:19.976
- It's been there for a long time.
- 00:08:19.976 --> 00:08:21.711
- Now, you think those thoughts came from you.
- 00:08:21.711 --> 00:08:24.714
- Always remember this, your emotions, right,
- 00:08:24.714 --> 00:08:28.084
- Are a reflection of what you are thinking.
- 00:08:28.084 --> 00:08:31.087
- That's why i just told my son the other day, if you feel bad,
- 00:08:31.087 --> 00:08:34.657
- It's because you are thinking bad.
- 00:08:34.657 --> 00:08:36.459
- You are thinking bad thoughts, all right, thoughts of darkness,
- 00:08:36.459 --> 00:08:39.695
- You know, things won't look good tomorrow, i don't think i'm able
- 00:08:39.695 --> 00:08:42.798
- To do that, you know, and you are negative.
- 00:08:42.798 --> 00:08:47.269
- So your emotions follow your thoughts, but if your thoughts
- 00:08:47.269 --> 00:08:49.639
- Are positive, i told him that, you know jesus will be
- 00:08:49.639 --> 00:08:52.208
- With you, amen.
- 00:08:52.208 --> 00:08:53.309
- When you go to school, he's going to walk with you,
- 00:08:53.309 --> 00:08:54.977
- He's going to be your best friend, amen.
- 00:08:54.977 --> 00:08:56.746
- He never leaves you.
- 00:08:56.746 --> 00:08:57.780
- And your thoughts are positive, guess what?
- 00:08:57.780 --> 00:08:59.448
- Your emotions will be positive, amen.
- 00:08:59.448 --> 00:09:01.817
- So my friend, your emotions are an indicator of what you
- 00:09:01.817 --> 00:09:05.421
- Are thinking.
- 00:09:05.421 --> 00:09:06.555
- Because we are so used to thinking certain thoughts,
- 00:09:06.555 --> 00:09:08.891
- It's been there for a number of years, that we don't even know
- 00:09:08.891 --> 00:09:11.927
- We are thinking those thoughts, but our emotions cannot lie.
- 00:09:11.927 --> 00:09:15.631
- Our emotions, if you are experiencing depression,
- 00:09:15.631 --> 00:09:18.634
- You are experiencing thoughts of self-loathing, you know, you
- 00:09:18.634 --> 00:09:23.239
- Feel inferior, you feel lousy, you feel--even boredom, it's
- 00:09:23.239 --> 00:09:28.110
- Always based on the thought that has preceded that emotion, amen?
- 00:09:28.110 --> 00:09:32.448
- So right--i always say, right believing is so crucial, amen,
- 00:09:32.448 --> 00:09:36.886
- To right living, but right believing also produces
- 00:09:36.886 --> 00:09:40.756
- The right emotions, amen.
- 00:09:40.756 --> 00:09:43.192
- The right emoting, praise the lord, and don't say, you know,
- 00:09:43.192 --> 00:09:46.429
- Emotions are not important.
- 00:09:46.429 --> 00:09:47.596
- Then why did god create them?
- 00:09:47.596 --> 00:09:49.899
- Unfortunately, amen, our soul realm needs restoration.
- 00:09:49.899 --> 00:09:54.370
- Our spirit man, recreation, needs to be born again, but the
- 00:09:54.370 --> 00:09:58.574
- Soul realm needs restoration.
- 00:09:58.574 --> 00:10:00.743
- It's the same soul realm, amen.
- 00:10:00.743 --> 00:10:02.511
- God doesn't cause your soul realm to be born again.
- 00:10:02.511 --> 00:10:04.814
- He causes your spirit to be born again, but your soul realm,
- 00:10:04.814 --> 00:10:07.550
- Which is your emotions, your mind, needs to be restored, and
- 00:10:07.550 --> 00:10:10.820
- Your body, one day when jesus comes again, will be glorified.
- 00:10:10.820 --> 00:10:14.523
- Amen, praise the name of jesus.
- 00:10:14.523 --> 00:10:16.525
- So, come back to this again, on your strongholds.
- 00:10:16.525 --> 00:10:18.928
- It is built up of what?
- 00:10:18.928 --> 00:10:20.029
- Thoughts.
- 00:10:20.029 --> 00:10:21.030
- Arguments the devil has put down there.
- 00:10:21.030 --> 00:10:23.065
- Yeah, arguments like, you know, are you sure?
- 00:10:23.065 --> 00:10:25.768
- Look around you.
- 00:10:25.768 --> 00:10:26.936
- How many people that you know that have this disease
- 00:10:26.936 --> 00:10:29.772
- That have lived long?
- 00:10:29.772 --> 00:10:32.174
- How many of you?
- 00:10:32.174 --> 00:10:33.175
- You know, you have this condition.
- 00:10:33.175 --> 00:10:35.144
- You think that you have a bright future.
- 00:10:35.144 --> 00:10:36.312
- Look at those who have this condition, amen.
- 00:10:36.312 --> 00:10:38.547
- Look at others.
- 00:10:38.547 --> 00:10:39.782
- He will point you to others, always, always.
- 00:10:39.782 --> 00:10:42.618
- Or, you know, if you have a challenge in the area
- 00:10:42.618 --> 00:10:47.723
- Of eating, all right.
- 00:10:47.723 --> 00:10:49.625
- What the devil wants to do is that at the first moment
- 00:10:49.625 --> 00:10:51.627
- That you shun food and all that, you are--he doesn't say in the,
- 00:10:51.627 --> 00:10:55.931
- You know, in the second person, amen.
- 00:10:55.931 --> 00:10:58.000
- He speaks in the first pronoun, first person pronoun, amen.
- 00:10:58.000 --> 00:11:01.137
- He comes, he puts the thoughts in your mind and say,
- 00:11:01.137 --> 00:11:03.973
- I am anorexic.
- 00:11:03.973 --> 00:11:05.474
- Maybe i am anorexic, and the more you think, i am.
- 00:11:05.474 --> 00:11:09.712
- He doesn't say, you are.
- 00:11:09.712 --> 00:11:11.680
- All right, that's telling you already where the thought comes
- 00:11:11.680 --> 00:11:15.284
- From, but he comes so subtly, he makes you think that it is
- 00:11:15.284 --> 00:11:18.888
- Your thought.
- 00:11:18.888 --> 00:11:20.322
- Just like jesus says in the sermon on the mount,
- 00:11:20.322 --> 00:11:23.392
- "take no thought."
- 00:11:23.392 --> 00:11:25.361
- "take no thought, saying."
- 00:11:25.361 --> 00:11:27.630
- How do you take a wrong thought?
- 00:11:27.630 --> 00:11:30.399
- You know, devil shoots thoughts in your mind and you take it.
- 00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:33.002
- You take it by saying.
- 00:11:33.002 --> 00:11:34.136
- "take no thought, saying, what shall we eat?
- 00:11:34.136 --> 00:11:36.872
- What shall we drink?
- 00:11:36.872 --> 00:11:38.507
- How shall we be clothed?"
- 00:11:38.507 --> 00:11:39.775
- Worrisome thoughts, thoughts that cause you to be depressed.
- 00:11:39.775 --> 00:11:43.012
- Thoughts that cause you to feel all this sense of hopelessness,
- 00:11:43.012 --> 00:11:49.485
- Helplessness, amen.
- 00:11:49.485 --> 00:11:51.120
- A feeling of abandonment.
- 00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:53.222
- Friend, you take those thoughts by saying.
- 00:11:53.222 --> 00:11:57.059
- So jesus said, "take no thought, saying,"
- 00:11:57.059 --> 00:12:00.663
- What shall we-- how shall i be healed?
- 00:12:00.663 --> 00:12:03.399
- How shall i find that good life that god promises me,
- 00:12:03.399 --> 00:12:07.236
- The abundant life that jesus said i would have?
- 00:12:07.236 --> 00:12:09.638
- Where is it?
- 00:12:09.638 --> 00:12:10.639
- He will put thoughts in your mind.
- 00:12:10.639 --> 00:12:11.874
- He will argue with you and he will make you think that you
- 00:12:11.874 --> 00:12:14.043
- Are arguing, and it's a very intelligent argument.
- 00:12:14.043 --> 00:12:16.412
- He will tell you, look, you know, look at the facts, and he
- 00:12:16.412 --> 00:12:19.415
- Will talk about natural things, natural facts, but friends, we
- 00:12:19.415 --> 00:12:23.652
- Don't--we are in this world, but we are not of the world, amen.
- 00:12:23.652 --> 00:12:26.956
- We live not by what is sin.
- 00:12:26.956 --> 00:12:29.692
- For the world, what is sin, what is felt, is natural fact,
- 00:12:29.692 --> 00:12:33.362
- All right.
- 00:12:33.362 --> 00:12:34.296
- We transcend that to god's truth.
- 00:12:34.296 --> 00:12:36.165
- Truth is higher than facts and truth outlasts facts, amen?
- 00:12:36.165 --> 00:12:41.804
- Truth will always outlast facts.
- 00:12:41.804 --> 00:12:44.340
- Facts may remain and facts can change also.
- 00:12:44.340 --> 00:12:47.009
- There are people who have-- it's a fact that they have
- 00:12:47.009 --> 00:12:49.511
- This condition, amen, a certain disease, whatever.
- 00:12:49.511 --> 00:12:52.481
- Today, they are freed from it.
- 00:12:52.481 --> 00:12:54.316
- All right, that's the truth that set them free, amen.
- 00:12:54.316 --> 00:12:56.552
- That fact did not outlast the truth.
- 00:12:56.552 --> 00:12:58.821
- Praise the name of jesus.
- 00:12:58.821 --> 00:13:00.022
- We have so many testimonies of that, and not only that,
- 00:13:00.022 --> 00:13:02.491
- In the scriptures, we have abundance of testimonies
- 00:13:02.491 --> 00:13:05.227
- Of people that transform the natural fact into the truth.
- 00:13:05.227 --> 00:13:10.266
- "by his stripes we are healed," amen.
- 00:13:10.266 --> 00:13:12.735
- That's truth, amen, but you might say, the fact is my body
- 00:13:12.735 --> 00:13:16.438
- Feels the pain, my--yeah, but friend, the truth outlasts
- 00:13:16.438 --> 00:13:19.708
- The fact, amen.
- 00:13:19.708 --> 00:13:20.743
- So the devil put thoughts in your mind.
- 00:13:20.743 --> 00:13:22.344
- It's in the form of arguments.
- 00:13:22.344 --> 00:13:23.846
- It's in the form of the personal pronoun.
- 00:13:23.846 --> 00:13:25.848
- He will try to make you sound like, you know, it's you, amen.
- 00:13:25.848 --> 00:13:29.251
- He will come in that voice, but it's him all the while.
- 00:13:29.251 --> 00:13:31.921
- This is warfare.
- 00:13:31.921 --> 00:13:33.522
- I'm depressed, i'm just a very unlucky person.
- 00:13:33.522 --> 00:13:40.763
- I'm just hopeless.
- 00:13:40.763 --> 00:13:43.899
- I always make mistakes.
- 00:13:43.899 --> 00:13:47.236
- I will never measure up.
- 00:13:47.236 --> 00:13:49.004
- He'll put those thoughts in your mind.
- 00:13:49.004 --> 00:13:50.506
- I remember when i was a teenager and i was battling
- 00:13:50.506 --> 00:13:55.844
- All these blasphemous thoughts.
- 00:13:55.844 --> 00:13:57.513
- You know, every time i pray, i had a blasphemous thought
- 00:13:57.513 --> 00:13:59.214
- About god.
- 00:13:59.214 --> 00:14:00.215
- I don't know why.
- 00:14:00.215 --> 00:14:01.283
- I had blasphemous statements coming into my mind.
- 00:14:01.283 --> 00:14:03.485
- Even when i'm sleeping sometimes, there's a bad thought
- 00:14:03.485 --> 00:14:05.321
- About god.
- 00:14:05.321 --> 00:14:06.588
- I mean, it's horrendous, and i couldn't sleep at night and i
- 00:14:06.588 --> 00:14:11.360
- Was concerned that i might commit the unpardonable sin.
- 00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:15.464
- At one point, i even believed i had committed the unpardonable
- 00:14:15.464 --> 00:14:18.033
- Sin, which is blasphemy against the holy spirit.
- 00:14:18.033 --> 00:14:20.135
- So i went through, literally, i went through a depressed state
- 00:14:20.135 --> 00:14:24.006
- During that time.
- 00:14:24.006 --> 00:14:25.107
- It's almost like the valley of the shadow of death
- 00:14:25.107 --> 00:14:26.942
- At that time.
- 00:14:26.942 --> 00:14:28.077
- All the while, i didn't realize it was the enemy putting
- 00:14:28.077 --> 00:14:30.379
- Those thoughts in my mind and making me feel that these
- 00:14:30.379 --> 00:14:34.249
- Are my thoughts.
- 00:14:34.249 --> 00:14:35.484
- It's based on natural facts.
- 00:14:35.484 --> 00:14:37.386
- I look around me, from what i read, from what i know
- 00:14:37.386 --> 00:14:40.489
- Naturally, this is so.
- 00:14:40.489 --> 00:14:43.258
- So, it's an argument, but the bible says, "casting down
- 00:14:43.258 --> 00:14:45.961
- Arguments, and every high thing that exalts itself."
- 00:14:45.961 --> 00:14:49.398
- So every time the devil says, you are this, amen, you need
- 00:14:49.398 --> 00:14:52.167
- To come back with--by the way, my story ends with the re--
- 00:14:52.167 --> 00:14:55.771
- The discovery of the gospel of jesus christ,
- 00:14:55.771 --> 00:14:58.874
- In which i found out that i am righteous as a gift,
- 00:14:58.874 --> 00:15:02.411
- Because all the while, the devil is pointing me to my action,
- 00:15:02.411 --> 00:15:05.881
- Amen.
- 00:15:05.881 --> 00:15:06.749
- I'm always failing.
- 00:15:06.749 --> 00:15:07.716
- I'm always falling into sin.
- 00:15:07.716 --> 00:15:09.518
- I'm always having these bad thoughts.
- 00:15:09.518 --> 00:15:11.620
- I'm always having these blasphemous thoughts,
- 00:15:11.620 --> 00:15:14.023
- And i'm a blasphemer, and god doesn't accept blasphemers.
- 00:15:14.023 --> 00:15:18.794
- You know, god rejects blasphemers, amen.
- 00:15:18.794 --> 00:15:20.562
- He will put all these arguments in your mind, and every time you
- 00:15:20.562 --> 00:15:22.965
- Have a project, guess who comes beside you and says, you
- 00:15:22.965 --> 00:15:25.267
- Know you can't make it right.
- 00:15:25.267 --> 00:15:26.802
- You know you are subject to making mistakes, and most likely
- 00:15:26.802 --> 00:15:29.271
- You'll make one or two or a few in this project.
- 00:15:29.271 --> 00:15:32.408
- You know, who is the one that comes to you and puts
- 00:15:32.408 --> 00:15:34.009
- Those thoughts in your mind?
- 00:15:34.009 --> 00:15:35.277
- Every time you post something on instagram, you know, right,
- 00:15:35.277 --> 00:15:37.146
- There will be haters.
- 00:15:37.146 --> 00:15:38.280
- You know there will be people, you know, who will say
- 00:15:38.280 --> 00:15:40.149
- Bad things, and he will try to put the thoughts in your mind.
- 00:15:40.149 --> 00:15:42.985
- Why you will not succeed, you will not make it,
- 00:15:42.985 --> 00:15:46.255
- Because he knows that you have the fear of man.
- 00:15:46.255 --> 00:15:48.657
- You have the opinion of men that you exalt higher
- 00:15:48.657 --> 00:15:52.194
- Than god's opinion.
- 00:15:52.194 --> 00:15:53.395
- So he knows he has you there and he comes with all these
- 00:15:53.395 --> 00:15:56.632
- Thoughts and these arguments.
- 00:15:56.632 --> 00:15:59.268
- Friend, that's the battle arena, amen.
- 00:15:59.268 --> 00:16:03.572
- So when i discovered that i am the righteousness of god
- 00:16:03.572 --> 00:16:06.308
- In christ, first of all, i wasn't so established.
- 00:16:06.308 --> 00:16:09.278
- I knew it, but it was still a process of being established
- 00:16:09.278 --> 00:16:12.381
- In it.
- 00:16:12.381 --> 00:16:13.248
- Remember what we read just now?
- 00:16:13.248 --> 00:16:14.450
- That when we are established in righteousness, it's going
- 00:16:14.450 --> 00:16:16.385
- To affect our children.
- 00:16:16.385 --> 00:16:17.553
- They will be taught directly by the lord.
- 00:16:17.553 --> 00:16:19.421
- They will observe us and they will see that security,
- 00:16:19.421 --> 00:16:22.791
- That confidence in the lord, that helmet of hope,
- 00:16:22.791 --> 00:16:26.762
- That when we look forward, there's a positive expectation.
- 00:16:26.762 --> 00:16:29.364
- We expect good things to happen, and it's very contagious,
- 00:16:29.364 --> 00:16:32.134
- That spirit, amen.
- 00:16:32.134 --> 00:16:33.469
- Just like a negative spirit is contagious when we
- 00:16:33.469 --> 00:16:36.538
- Are depressed and we complain.
- 00:16:36.538 --> 00:16:38.774
- It's passed on to the children.
- 00:16:38.774 --> 00:16:40.909
- Many of the times, you know, in parenting, this is one aspect
- 00:16:40.909 --> 00:16:43.479
- That is not well taught.
- 00:16:43.479 --> 00:16:44.680
- All right, we teach people about discipline, we teach people
- 00:16:44.680 --> 00:16:47.683
- About what to tell our children, how to communicate,
- 00:16:47.683 --> 00:16:50.085
- And all that is well and good, but the most crucial area
- 00:16:50.085 --> 00:16:52.688
- Is the parent himself.
- 00:16:52.688 --> 00:16:54.389
- You are parenting even without words.
- 00:16:54.389 --> 00:16:56.425
- You are parenting by your life, amen, and if we are fearful,
- 00:16:56.425 --> 00:17:00.863
- They will pick up on our fears.
- 00:17:00.863 --> 00:17:02.397
- Many of the fears that children have today are learned.
- 00:17:02.397 --> 00:17:05.501
- Be careful of what you say to your wife.
- 00:17:05.501 --> 00:17:07.302
- Be care--you know, watch what you say in the presence
- 00:17:07.302 --> 00:17:09.471
- Of your children.
- 00:17:09.471 --> 00:17:10.672
- They learn to fear, and they hear it and they will start
- 00:17:10.672 --> 00:17:12.975
- Feeling the world is not safe.
- 00:17:12.975 --> 00:17:16.178
- The world is not a safe place.
- 00:17:16.178 --> 00:17:18.247
- It's scary, right?
- 00:17:18.247 --> 00:17:19.815
- Then later on when they have some phobias, you know,
- 00:17:19.815 --> 00:17:22.784
- Phobia that they have and fears and all that, you wonder where
- 00:17:22.784 --> 00:17:25.254
- It came from and you're trying to resolve it, but you're trying
- 00:17:25.254 --> 00:17:27.890
- To deal with the branches, not the root, amen.
- 00:17:27.890 --> 00:17:30.692
- It is you.
- 00:17:30.692 --> 00:17:31.927
- So when we are established in righteousness, it has an amazing
- 00:17:31.927 --> 00:17:34.997
- Impact on our children.
- 00:17:34.997 --> 00:17:36.465
- Great shall be their peace.
- 00:17:36.465 --> 00:17:38.634
- You know why?
- 00:17:38.634 --> 00:17:39.535
- Because you are at peace, amen, amen?
- 00:17:39.535 --> 00:17:42.204
- So we want all believers, amen, to be established
- 00:17:42.204 --> 00:17:46.542
- In righteousness because this is your god-given inheritance.
- 00:17:46.542 --> 00:17:50.078
- In fact, the whole chapter there ends with, "no weapon formed
- 00:17:50.078 --> 00:17:53.148
- Against you shall prosper, and every tongue that rises
- 00:17:53.148 --> 00:17:56.418
- Against you to judge you," amen, "you shall condemn."
- 00:17:56.418 --> 00:18:01.123
- And it says this, "this is the heritage of the servants
- 00:18:01.123 --> 00:18:05.394
- Of the lord," you and i, "and their righteousness,"
- 00:18:05.394 --> 00:18:08.497
- Is not from them.
- 00:18:08.497 --> 00:18:10.132
- It's not something that they do themselves.
- 00:18:10.132 --> 00:18:12.734
- "their righteousness is from me, says the lord."
- 00:18:12.734 --> 00:18:15.037
- That's a gift.
- 00:18:15.037 --> 00:18:15.904
- That's the gospel of jesus christ.
- 00:18:15.904 --> 00:18:17.105
- No wonder it's in isaiah 54 that comes after isaiah 53, that
- 00:18:17.105 --> 00:18:21.143
- Talks about all the sufferings of jesus in isaiah 53.
- 00:18:21.143 --> 00:18:23.979
- It's where you find, 'he was wounded for our transgressions,
- 00:18:23.979 --> 00:18:27.015
- Crushed for our iniquities."
- 00:18:27.015 --> 00:18:28.684
- "with his stripes we are healed."
- 00:18:28.684 --> 00:18:30.385
- All that in isaiah 53, and the fruit of jesus's finished work
- 00:18:30.385 --> 00:18:35.057
- Is this gift of righteousness, amen, that affects peace
- 00:18:35.057 --> 00:18:40.162
- All around us because we are established
- 00:18:40.162 --> 00:18:42.397
- In righteousness.
- 00:18:42.397 --> 00:18:43.632
- Hallelujah!
- 00:18:43.632 --> 00:18:44.833
- So this area of warfare, my friend, is in your mind,
- 00:18:44.833 --> 00:18:49.371
- Amen, and notice that the way we battle the enemy
- 00:18:49.371 --> 00:18:53.041
- Is just with one thought.
- 00:18:53.041 --> 00:18:55.010
- Every time whatever thoughts come to you, just come back
- 00:18:55.010 --> 00:18:57.746
- With one thought.
- 00:18:57.746 --> 00:18:58.814
- The devil might say, you are this, you are that.
- 00:18:58.814 --> 00:19:00.916
- Notice, you felt that pain just now.
- 00:19:00.916 --> 00:19:03.518
- It might be this disease, all right.
- 00:19:03.518 --> 00:19:05.387
- You know, one in ten people have this disease.
- 00:19:05.387 --> 00:19:07.556
- You might be the one.
- 00:19:07.556 --> 00:19:08.790
- You are the right age for it, and he will put the thoughts
- 00:19:08.790 --> 00:19:11.727
- In terms of argument and become a stronghold that produces what?
- 00:19:11.727 --> 00:19:15.831
- Fear, anxiety, worry, sleeplessness.
- 00:19:15.831 --> 00:19:20.168
- You're tossing and turning.
- 00:19:20.168 --> 00:19:21.770
- You know, sheep cannot sleep, they cannot rest, unless they
- 00:19:21.770 --> 00:19:27.976
- Know the shepherd is nearby, amen?
- 00:19:27.976 --> 00:19:30.812
- So the bible says, "he maketh me," he,
- 00:19:30.812 --> 00:19:33.148
- The shepherd, "maketh me to lie down in green pastures."
- 00:19:33.148 --> 00:19:37.019
- So in the midst of all these natural things that's happening
- 00:19:37.019 --> 00:19:39.855
- In your life that's not good, bring the good shepherd
- 00:19:39.855 --> 00:19:43.692
- Into it, amen.
- 00:19:43.692 --> 00:19:44.526
- Talk to the good shepherd.
- 00:19:44.526 --> 00:19:45.794
- Even in the midst, amen.
- 00:19:45.794 --> 00:19:48.096
- Going through the midst of the valley of the shadow
- 00:19:48.096 --> 00:19:50.198
- Of death, jesus is with you.
- 00:19:50.198 --> 00:19:52.034
- "you are with me," though i walk through, and thank god,
- 00:19:52.034 --> 00:19:55.837
- You are walking through.
- 00:19:55.837 --> 00:19:57.205
- Walking through means you're not there to camp and stay,
- 00:19:57.205 --> 00:20:00.442
- Build a house, you know, and remain there forever.
- 00:20:00.442 --> 00:20:03.645
- No, you are walking through.
- 00:20:03.645 --> 00:20:05.714
- Yes, nonetheless, you still go through it, right?
- 00:20:05.714 --> 00:20:08.216
- You feel it, you experience it, but friend, you are
- 00:20:08.216 --> 00:20:10.619
- Walking through.
- 00:20:10.619 --> 00:20:11.586
- It's only a season in your life, amen.
- 00:20:11.586 --> 00:20:14.289
- The one that will come out with you permanently
- 00:20:14.289 --> 00:20:16.825
- And will always be with you is the good shepherd, amen,
- 00:20:16.825 --> 00:20:20.128
- And look around you.
- 00:20:20.128 --> 00:20:21.496
- Look behind you.
- 00:20:21.496 --> 00:20:22.364
- Look on your left and right.
- 00:20:22.364 --> 00:20:24.466
- His goodness and mercy is pursuing you
- 00:20:24.466 --> 00:20:27.035
- All the days of your life.
- 00:20:27.035 --> 00:20:28.837
- All the days of your life.
- 00:20:28.837 --> 00:20:30.305
- You need to get up every morning and say, well, if goodness and
- 00:20:30.305 --> 00:20:33.075
- Mercy pursues me all the days of my life, and the hebrew word
- 00:20:33.075 --> 00:20:36.945
- Is pursue, "radaph."
- 00:20:36.945 --> 00:20:38.680
- Radaph is not just, surely goodness and mercy shall follow.
- 00:20:38.680 --> 00:20:42.150
- It's actually the word, "hunt you down."
- 00:20:42.150 --> 00:20:43.819
- Hunt you down, amen.
- 00:20:43.819 --> 00:20:45.420
- Every time you turn to the right, goodness
- 00:20:45.420 --> 00:20:47.189
- Smacks you, amen.
- 00:20:47.189 --> 00:20:48.490
- The goodness of god.
- 00:20:48.490 --> 00:20:49.658
- You run smack into the goodness of god.
- 00:20:49.658 --> 00:20:51.760
- You experience something on that day.
- 00:20:51.760 --> 00:20:52.928
- Wow, i know that god is so good.
- 00:20:52.928 --> 00:20:55.063
- It makes you want to say, god is so good, amen.
- 00:20:55.063 --> 00:20:57.366
- You turn the other way, mercy, amen.
- 00:20:57.366 --> 00:21:00.068
- Surely goodness and the word is "chesed," grace, god's favor
- 00:21:00.068 --> 00:21:03.472
- Smacks you in the face, amen.
- 00:21:03.472 --> 00:21:05.307
- You experience god's favor, and you feel so favored,
- 00:21:05.307 --> 00:21:08.110
- So loved, and you know how long you experience this?
- 00:21:08.110 --> 00:21:11.413
- All the days.
- 00:21:11.413 --> 00:21:12.714
- Surely, not maybe, surely goodness and "chesed," favor,
- 00:21:12.714 --> 00:21:17.219
- Will pursue you all the days.
- 00:21:17.219 --> 00:21:20.722
- So the bible says that--i was saying that just one thought,
- 00:21:20.789 --> 00:21:23.458
- And this is the thought.
- 00:21:23.458 --> 00:21:24.393
- Bring all the arguments.
- 00:21:24.393 --> 00:21:26.128
- Bring every high thing the devils try to establish or may
- 00:21:26.128 --> 00:21:30.265
- Have established in your mind.
- 00:21:30.265 --> 00:21:32.234
- "bringing every thought into captivity
- 00:21:32.234 --> 00:21:35.470
- To the obedience of christ."
- 00:21:35.470 --> 00:21:38.140
- Now, it's very important because the phrase here is, "bringing
- 00:21:38.206 --> 00:21:42.911
- Every thought to the obedience of christ," not your obedience,
- 00:21:42.911 --> 00:21:46.648
- And it's not saying, make every thought obey christ.
- 00:21:46.648 --> 00:21:49.885
- That would be--in the greek, obey would be in the verb,
- 00:21:49.885 --> 00:21:53.255
- But over here, if you look up this word in the greek,
- 00:21:53.255 --> 00:21:56.091
- Obedience, it's a noun.
- 00:21:56.091 --> 00:21:57.526
- The word obedience is a noun, not a verb.
- 00:21:57.526 --> 00:22:00.028
- If you say, bring every thought to obey christ,
- 00:22:00.028 --> 00:22:03.165
- Then it becomes a verb.
- 00:22:03.165 --> 00:22:04.733
- And who can do that?
- 00:22:04.733 --> 00:22:05.901
- Notice that everything the devil argues about in your mind
- 00:22:05.901 --> 00:22:09.438
- Is always things that make you self-occupied, and the key
- 00:22:09.438 --> 00:22:13.875
- To being delivered from self-occupation, which is
- 00:22:13.875 --> 00:22:16.645
- A very painful state to be in, is to be christ-occupied, to see
- 00:22:16.645 --> 00:22:21.416
- His beauty, and the bible says in 2 corinthians 3, that as we
- 00:22:21.416 --> 00:22:25.353
- Behold his glory, we "are being transformed into the same image
- 00:22:25.353 --> 00:22:29.891
- From glory to glory," not by our efforts, but,
- 00:22:29.891 --> 00:22:33.028
- "by the spirit of the lord."
- 00:22:33.028 --> 00:22:34.563
- By beholding--the holy spirit needs you to behold christ,
- 00:22:34.563 --> 00:22:38.133
- Amen?
- 00:22:38.133 --> 00:22:39.134
- It's a warfare.
- 00:22:39.134 --> 00:22:40.135
- You are in the warfare, my friend, amen.
- 00:22:40.135 --> 00:22:42.571
- You have to bring all those thoughts
- 00:22:42.571 --> 00:22:44.105
- To the obedience of christ.
- 00:22:44.105 --> 00:22:45.140
- Not your obedience, but his obedience.
- 00:22:45.140 --> 00:22:47.809
- What does that mean?
- 00:22:47.809 --> 00:22:48.643
- "the obedience," in the original,
- 00:22:48.643 --> 00:22:50.412
- The definite article is there.
- 00:22:50.412 --> 00:22:51.980
- "the obedience of the christ."
- 00:22:51.980 --> 00:22:54.049
- That's in the original.
- 00:22:54.049 --> 00:22:55.083
- So what is that?
- 00:22:55.083 --> 00:22:55.984
- It's referring to one obedience.
- 00:22:55.984 --> 00:22:57.686
- What jesus did at the cross.
- 00:22:57.686 --> 00:22:59.154
- Let's look at romans chapter 5, verse 19.
- 00:22:59.154 --> 00:23:03.425
- "for as by one man's disobedience many
- 00:23:03.425 --> 00:23:05.594
- Were made sinners, so also by one man's obedience,
- 00:23:05.594 --> 00:23:10.198
- Many will be made righteous."
- 00:23:10.198 --> 00:23:12.601
- People are sinners because of adam's sin.
- 00:23:12.601 --> 00:23:15.770
- People sin because they are sinners.
- 00:23:15.770 --> 00:23:18.306
- They are sinners not because they sin.
- 00:23:18.306 --> 00:23:20.842
- They are sinners because of one man's disobedience, amen?
- 00:23:20.842 --> 00:23:24.513
- That first man, adam.
- 00:23:24.513 --> 00:23:25.947
- By the same token, by the same token--look at this.
- 00:23:25.947 --> 00:23:29.451
- This analogous with this.
- 00:23:29.451 --> 00:23:31.119
- "also by one man's obedience many will be made righteous."
- 00:23:31.119 --> 00:23:36.057
- Friend, we talk about being established in righteousness.
- 00:23:36.057 --> 00:23:39.127
- How are we made righteous?
- 00:23:39.127 --> 00:23:40.762
- How are you made righteous?
- 00:23:40.762 --> 00:23:42.731
- How?
- 00:23:42.731 --> 00:23:44.099
- By one man's obedience.
- 00:23:44.099 --> 00:23:46.101
- Who is that one man?
- 00:23:46.101 --> 00:23:47.102
- Jesus.
- 00:23:47.102 --> 00:23:48.336
- So every time all these thoughts come, there's only one answer.
- 00:23:48.336 --> 00:23:51.573
- Turn it back to: his obedience made me righteous.
- 00:23:51.573 --> 00:23:55.377
- I have the gift of righteousness, amen?
- 00:23:55.377 --> 00:23:57.445
- Declare i am the righteousness of god in christ.
- 00:23:57.445 --> 00:24:00.882
- So this is the area of the warfare, and every time
- 00:24:00.882 --> 00:24:03.251
- We hear god's word, we are changing our minds, amen?
- 00:24:03.251 --> 00:24:06.087
- No, i'm not going to think destructive anymore.
- 00:24:06.087 --> 00:24:07.989
- I'm not even going to think negative anymore.
- 00:24:07.989 --> 00:24:09.558
- I'm not going to think thoughts of sin anymore
- 00:24:09.558 --> 00:24:12.093
- Or thoughts of darkness, hard thoughts about god.
- 00:24:12.093 --> 00:24:14.696
- I'm going to think thoughts of grace, thoughts of his love
- 00:24:14.696 --> 00:24:17.399
- For me, amen?
- 00:24:17.399 --> 00:24:18.500
- Thoughts of that one man's obedience that made me
- 00:24:18.500 --> 00:24:20.468
- Righteous.
- 00:24:20.468 --> 00:24:21.436
- These are the thoughts i'll focus on, amen.
- 00:24:21.436 --> 00:24:22.804
- When the devil comes and says, look at what you have done, or
- 00:24:22.804 --> 00:24:24.973
- What you have not done, or what you have not done enough, i'll
- 00:24:24.973 --> 00:24:27.676
- Focus on one man's obedience made me righteous.
- 00:24:27.676 --> 00:24:29.844
- That's bringing every thought to the obedience of christ.
- 00:24:29.844 --> 00:24:34.583
- Bringing every thought to whose obedience?
- 00:24:34.583 --> 00:24:36.952
- His obedience that made us righteous.
- 00:24:36.952 --> 00:24:40.689
- Female announcer: pastor joseph prince

- Will return in a moment with a special prayer
- 00:24:42.023 --> 00:24:44.359
