  • 00:00:40.449 --> 00:00:43.719
  • I want to speak to you straight from my heart.
  • 00:00:43.819 --> 00:00:45.988
  • It's been a year filled with so much noise, change,
  • 00:00:46.121 --> 00:00:49.057
  • And uncertainty, and maybe for you
  • 00:00:49.191 --> 00:00:49.825
  • It's been a year of deep personal challenges too.
  • 00:00:51.360 --> 00:00:54.563
  • But in the midst of it all,
  • 00:00:54.563 --> 00:00:56.198
  • Here's what i want you to hold on to.
  • 00:00:56.198 --> 00:00:58.267
  • The lord jesus has not changed and neither has our calling
  • 00:00:58.267 --> 00:01:02.871
  • To bring his life-saving, heart-healing,
  • 00:01:02.871 --> 00:01:05.440
  • Peace-giving gospel to a world that desperately needs him.
  • 00:01:05.440 --> 00:01:09.211
  • After all these years, by god's grace
  • 00:01:09.211 --> 00:01:11.713
  • And with your faithful support, this ministry has endeavored
  • 00:01:11.713 --> 00:01:15.050
  • To lift up the name of jesus through our broadcasts,
  • 00:01:15.050 --> 00:01:18.086
  • Digital outreach, and every open door the lord provides.
  • 00:01:18.086 --> 00:01:21.990
  • And even though the world keeps shifting,
  • 00:01:21.990 --> 00:01:24.059
  • One thing remains true: people still need jesus.
  • 00:01:24.059 --> 00:01:28.530
  • They need to know there is a savior who still heals,
  • 00:01:28.530 --> 00:01:31.466
  • Still restores, still provides, and still protects.
  • 00:01:31.466 --> 00:01:36.371
  • So as we step into 2026, i invite you to shine that light
  • 00:01:36.371 --> 00:01:41.109
  • With us.
  • 00:01:41.109 --> 00:01:42.444
  • Let's believe bigger. let's build together.
  • 00:01:42.444 --> 00:01:45.547
  • Your generosity helps someone else experience
  • 00:01:45.547 --> 00:01:48.984
  • The same jesus who changed your life.
  • 00:01:48.984 --> 00:01:52.588
  • So i pray that you will give as the lord puts in your heart.
  • 00:01:52.588 --> 00:01:56.592
  • Wendy and i are praying you will walk into the new year
  • 00:01:56.592 --> 00:01:59.194
  • With fresh grace, peace, and every good thing
  • 00:01:59.194 --> 00:02:02.731
  • The lord has in store for you.
  • 00:02:02.731 --> 00:02:04.967
  • God bless you and your family always.
  • 00:02:04.967 --> 00:02:08.303
  • Joseph prince: some of you find that,
  • 00:02:11.206 --> 00:02:12.541
  • In the middle of night, your heart beats real fast?
  • 00:02:12.541 --> 00:02:14.376
  • Or you start-- you don't know why,
  • 00:02:14.376 --> 00:02:15.844
  • But you find that you get anxious really fast, amen.
  • 00:02:15.844 --> 00:02:19.615
  • Is it a panic attack?
  • 00:02:19.615 --> 00:02:21.049
  • And it talked about social media, its impact,
  • 00:02:21.049 --> 00:02:23.518
  • Cyberbullying, things like that.
  • 00:02:23.518 --> 00:02:25.687
  • We can teach our young people
  • 00:02:25.687 --> 00:02:29.591
  • That jesus has given us his peace.
  • 00:02:29.591 --> 00:02:32.861
  • "let not--" that's our part.
  • 00:02:32.861 --> 00:02:35.130
  • "let not your heart be troubled."
  • 00:02:35.130 --> 00:02:36.465
  • The moment it start,
  • 00:02:36.465 --> 00:02:37.799
  • "let not your heart be troubled."
  • 00:02:37.799 --> 00:02:39.134
  • Just quote it. quote it to your heart.
  • 00:02:39.134 --> 00:02:40.469
  • "let not your heart be troubled."
  • 00:02:40.469 --> 00:02:41.803
  • Say it under your breath.
  • 00:02:41.803 --> 00:02:43.138
  • "let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."
  • 00:02:43.138 --> 00:02:45.507
  • You know what's gonna happen?
  • 00:02:45.507 --> 00:02:46.842
  • More shalom will flow because shalom is there already.
  • 00:02:46.842 --> 00:02:50.012
  • He has given us-- he has bequeathed us his shalom,
  • 00:02:50.012 --> 00:02:52.814
  • Well-being, and peace.
  • 00:02:52.814 --> 00:02:54.783
  • So the more you let not your heart be troubled,
  • 00:02:54.783 --> 00:02:56.652
  • The more well-being flows into your body.
  • 00:02:56.652 --> 00:02:59.288

  • Joseph prince: we live in a world
  • 00:03:07.362 --> 00:03:08.697
  • Where our values and our faith are being challenged 24/7.

  • This is why it is so important for us
  • 00:03:14.269 --> 00:03:17.105
  • To be anchored on something greater
  • 00:03:17.105 --> 00:03:20.208
  • Than ourselves.

  • 00:03:49.604 --> 00:03:51.873
  • With today's program.
  • 00:03:51.873 --> 00:03:53.208
  • Joseph prince: our inheritance is healing,
  • 00:03:53.208 --> 00:03:55.510
  • One of the inheritance that we have.
  • 00:03:55.510 --> 00:03:56.845
  • We have so much inheritance.
  • 00:03:56.845 --> 00:03:58.180
  • Of course, the very first thing we receive
  • 00:03:58.180 --> 00:04:01.016
  • When we are born again is salvation, eternal life.
  • 00:04:01.016 --> 00:04:04.453
  • Praise the lord. what a gift in our inheritance.
  • 00:04:04.453 --> 00:04:07.923
  • And the bible doesn't say that we are heir apparent.
  • 00:04:07.923 --> 00:04:11.626
  • You know what's an heir apparent?
  • 00:04:11.626 --> 00:04:12.961
  • Someone waiting to receive the inheritance.
  • 00:04:12.961 --> 00:04:15.297
  • The bible doesn't say that.
  • 00:04:15.297 --> 00:04:16.865
  • The bible says we are joint heirs with christ.
  • 00:04:16.865 --> 00:04:21.036
  • So we receive the inheritance now.
  • 00:04:21.036 --> 00:04:24.473
  • The bible says all the promises of god in him,
  • 00:04:24.473 --> 00:04:28.977
  • Now in christ, is yes and amen
  • 00:04:28.977 --> 00:04:32.748
  • Because every one of their blessings
  • 00:04:32.748 --> 00:04:34.316
  • Is actually in christ, the messiah,
  • 00:04:34.316 --> 00:04:37.285
  • Who has yet to come.
  • 00:04:37.285 --> 00:04:39.121
  • But he has come already for us,
  • 00:04:39.121 --> 00:04:41.056
  • Amen, and he's our lord and savior.
  • 00:04:41.056 --> 00:04:43.392
  • He's our shepherd.
  • 00:04:43.392 --> 00:04:45.227
  • So in him, all the promises of god--
  • 00:04:45.227 --> 00:04:47.529
  • You don't have to look at it, promise in the old testament.
  • 00:04:47.529 --> 00:04:50.399
  • You say, "pastor, psalms 91, is it--this protection psalm,
  • 00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:54.269
  • Is it for us today?
  • 00:04:54.269 --> 00:04:55.604
  • Is it for christians or only for the jews?"
  • 00:04:55.604 --> 00:04:57.706
  • No, it's for all of us who are born again,
  • 00:04:57.706 --> 00:05:01.410
  • All of us who are sons of god.
  • 00:05:01.410 --> 00:05:04.112
  • Amen?
  • 00:05:04.112 --> 00:05:05.514
  • So all the promises of god in christ is yes and amen.
  • 00:05:05.514 --> 00:05:10.752
  • But what about the one-- "god satisfies our mouth
  • 00:05:10.752 --> 00:05:13.555
  • So that our youth is renewed like the eagles"--
  • 00:05:13.555 --> 00:05:15.891
  • Is that for us--amen?--
  • 00:05:15.891 --> 00:05:18.260
  • The one that says that "we shall renew our strength.
  • 00:05:18.260 --> 00:05:21.997
  • We will run and not be weary. we shall walk and not faint.
  • 00:05:21.997 --> 00:05:25.066
  • We will still bring forth fruit in old age.
  • 00:05:25.066 --> 00:05:27.602
  • We shall be full of life and sap,
  • 00:05:27.602 --> 00:05:30.639
  • And we shall be ever green.
  • 00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:32.541
  • They shall be green. they shall be green"?
  • 00:05:32.541 --> 00:05:35.177
  • In the hebrew, it says, "they shall be ra'anan," green.
  • 00:05:35.177 --> 00:05:37.979
  • The word "ra'anan" means green.
  • 00:05:37.979 --> 00:05:40.549
  • Even in old age, where they are still bringing fruit,
  • 00:05:40.549 --> 00:05:43.718
  • They are still green.
  • 00:05:43.718 --> 00:05:46.988
  • What's the first area that god said, "in order for you
  • 00:05:46.988 --> 00:05:49.658
  • To possess the land--" joshua 1?
  • 00:05:49.658 --> 00:05:51.693
  • It says, "moses my servant is dead.
  • 00:05:51.693 --> 00:05:53.695
  • Now therefore, arise, go over this jordan,
  • 00:05:53.695 --> 00:05:55.530
  • You and the people.
  • 00:05:55.530 --> 00:05:56.865
  • Every place the sole of your foot
  • 00:05:56.865 --> 00:05:58.200
  • Will tread upon will be yours."
  • 00:05:58.200 --> 00:05:59.701
  • I was telling you just now
  • 00:05:59.701 --> 00:06:01.036
  • About the blessings of asher, remember?
  • 00:06:01.036 --> 00:06:03.839
  • The tribe of asher is coastal side here,
  • 00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:06.741
  • Where tyre and sidon was there.
  • 00:06:06.741 --> 00:06:08.376
  • And the father said, "gather around," before he died.
  • 00:06:08.376 --> 00:06:12.547
  • And to the son, asher, he gave this prophecy, all right?
  • 00:06:12.547 --> 00:06:15.817
  • The prophecy was, "bread from asher shall be rich,
  • 00:06:15.817 --> 00:06:18.453
  • And he shall yield royal dainties."
  • 00:06:18.453 --> 00:06:20.589
  • So the word "royal" gives you the idea of a king.
  • 00:06:20.589 --> 00:06:23.625
  • A king will come and eat and dispense--
  • 00:06:23.625 --> 00:06:27.028
  • Or rather dispense bread from asher, which is rich.
  • 00:06:27.028 --> 00:06:31.466
  • We saw that.
  • 00:06:31.466 --> 00:06:33.068
  • The only time this happened was jesus went 130 miles
  • 00:06:33.068 --> 00:06:38.840
  • To the area of asher.
  • 00:06:38.840 --> 00:06:41.676
  • At that time, literally, it's out of the proper area
  • 00:06:41.676 --> 00:06:46.882
  • Of israel, where the gentiles would live.
  • 00:06:46.882 --> 00:06:51.019
  • Jesus went all the way, and along the 130 miles,
  • 00:06:51.019 --> 00:06:53.822
  • There's no miracles recorded.
  • 00:06:53.822 --> 00:06:55.390
  • There's no major act noted for us.
  • 00:06:55.390 --> 00:06:59.327
  • All the way back, there's nothing major.
  • 00:06:59.327 --> 00:07:00.662
  • The only thing is that he went all the way to minister
  • 00:07:00.662 --> 00:07:03.231
  • To a gentile woman to give her the children's bread,
  • 00:07:03.231 --> 00:07:09.337
  • Which means healing.
  • 00:07:09.337 --> 00:07:11.139
  • We all know from the context that it's healing.
  • 00:07:11.139 --> 00:07:13.542
  • The fulfillment of-- she was in the tribe of asher.
  • 00:07:13.542 --> 00:07:17.546
  • But it was jesus went to the region of tyre and sidon,
  • 00:07:17.546 --> 00:07:20.248
  • And he gave her the children's bread.
  • 00:07:20.248 --> 00:07:23.919
  • And how i know that this bread is so rich?
  • 00:07:23.919 --> 00:07:27.422
  • Bread from asher shall be rich because a crumb drove the demon
  • 00:07:27.422 --> 00:07:32.360
  • Out of the daughter, and the daughter was healed.
  • 00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:35.263
  • Just a crumb.
  • 00:07:35.263 --> 00:07:36.598
  • So when you take communion, remember this story.
  • 00:07:36.598 --> 00:07:39.868
  • The blessing of asher is in this.
  • 00:07:39.868 --> 00:07:41.937
  • "by your stripes, i am healed."
  • 00:07:41.937 --> 00:07:44.172
  • So, he came and yield royal dainties.
  • 00:07:44.172 --> 00:07:49.110
  • Jesus gave royal bread-- rich bread--and its healing.
  • 00:07:49.110 --> 00:07:55.350
  • This is the blessing of his father, jacob, upon his son,
  • 00:07:55.350 --> 00:07:58.987
  • Before he was a tribe, before he became a tribe.
  • 00:07:58.987 --> 00:08:01.856
  • Later on, fast-forward, during the time when they are
  • 00:08:01.856 --> 00:08:04.693
  • All 12 tribes already,
  • 00:08:04.693 --> 00:08:07.228
  • It was moses's turn to leave the world,
  • 00:08:07.228 --> 00:08:10.031
  • And moses gathered them together,
  • 00:08:10.031 --> 00:08:12.200
  • And moses, he gave all the blessings
  • 00:08:12.200 --> 00:08:14.369
  • To the 12 tribes,
  • 00:08:14.369 --> 00:08:15.704
  • And this is a blessing on asher, all right?
  • 00:08:15.704 --> 00:08:17.706
  • "asher is most blessed of sons;
  • 00:08:17.706 --> 00:08:19.274
  • Let him be favored by his brothers,
  • 00:08:19.274 --> 00:08:20.809
  • Let him dip his foot in oil."
  • 00:08:20.809 --> 00:08:22.844
  • You'll walk in the spirit, okay? that's the idea.
  • 00:08:22.844 --> 00:08:26.348
  • "your sandals shall be iron and bronze;
  • 00:08:26.348 --> 00:08:28.750
  • As your days, so shall your strength be."
  • 00:08:28.750 --> 00:08:31.386
  • Okay, look at me. have you claimed that?
  • 00:08:31.386 --> 00:08:34.623
  • This is your inheritance, you know?
  • 00:08:34.623 --> 00:08:36.925
  • Read carefully. read carefully.
  • 00:08:36.925 --> 00:08:38.827
  • It doesn't say, "as your days, you'll become weaker
  • 00:08:38.827 --> 00:08:43.331
  • But--praise god--you'll see jesus face-to-face," right?
  • 00:08:43.331 --> 00:08:48.003
  • It doesn't say that.
  • 00:08:48.003 --> 00:08:49.504
  • It says, "as your days"--
  • 00:08:49.504 --> 00:08:50.839
  • That means as your days increase--
  • 00:08:50.839 --> 00:08:52.507
  • "so shall your strength be."
  • 00:08:52.507 --> 00:08:55.276
  • Congregation: amen.
  • 00:08:55.276 --> 00:08:56.845
  • Joseph prince: do you see that? have you claimed it?
  • 00:08:56.845 --> 00:08:59.714
  • Have you spoken it? do you act like it?
  • 00:08:59.714 --> 00:09:03.518
  • Start walking it out, amen?
  • 00:09:03.518 --> 00:09:05.854
  • Okay, so how do i possess the land?
  • 00:09:05.854 --> 00:09:07.555
  • How do i possess? go back to joshua 1.
  • 00:09:07.555 --> 00:09:09.357
  • It says here, "moses my servant is dead."
  • 00:09:09.357 --> 00:09:12.093
  • Think about the big pair of shoes that joshua
  • 00:09:12.093 --> 00:09:14.663
  • Will have to fill.
  • 00:09:14.663 --> 00:09:15.997
  • "moses is dead.
  • 00:09:15.997 --> 00:09:17.332
  • Now, bring these people, go over jordan
  • 00:09:17.332 --> 00:09:20.235
  • To the promised land.
  • 00:09:20.235 --> 00:09:21.569
  • Every place the sole of your foot will tread upon
  • 00:09:21.569 --> 00:09:23.805
  • I have given you, as i said to moses.
  • 00:09:23.805 --> 00:09:27.108
  • I have giv--every place the sole of your foot
  • 00:09:27.108 --> 00:09:28.677
  • Shall tread upon shall be yours."
  • 00:09:28.677 --> 00:09:30.011
  • And then god encouraged him:
  • 00:09:30.011 --> 00:09:31.346
  • "i'll be with you wherever you go."
  • 00:09:31.346 --> 00:09:32.681
  • And then god said these words:
  • 00:09:32.681 --> 00:09:34.015
  • "only be strong and very courageous."
  • 00:09:34.015 --> 00:09:37.018
  • Amen?
  • 00:09:37.018 --> 00:09:38.353
  • "only be strong and very courageous."
  • 00:09:38.353 --> 00:09:39.754
  • What about you?
  • 00:09:39.754 --> 00:09:41.089
  • Are you faced-- some of you find that,
  • 00:09:41.089 --> 00:09:42.424
  • In the middle of night, your heart beats real fast?
  • 00:09:42.424 --> 00:09:44.993
  • I'm thinking about someone here, amen,
  • 00:09:44.993 --> 00:09:47.729
  • A few someones, amen.
  • 00:09:47.729 --> 00:09:50.398
  • Your heart beats real fast, or you start--
  • 00:09:50.398 --> 00:09:51.733
  • You don't know why,
  • 00:09:51.733 --> 00:09:53.068
  • But you find that you get anxious really fast, amen.
  • 00:09:53.068 --> 00:09:56.471
  • Is it a panic attack?
  • 00:09:56.471 --> 00:09:57.839
  • Recently, you know, the front news--
  • 00:09:57.839 --> 00:10:01.576
  • Headline news of "straits times,"
  • 00:10:01.576 --> 00:10:03.912
  • I just passed by, and i looked down in my house
  • 00:10:03.912 --> 00:10:08.917
  • At the headlines, and i was stunned.
  • 00:10:08.917 --> 00:10:10.485
  • "one out of three youths have mental health challenges."
  • 00:10:10.485 --> 00:10:17.392
  • And then the subtitle says,
  • 00:10:17.392 --> 00:10:19.260
  • "anxiety being the leading reason."
  • 00:10:19.260 --> 00:10:23.164
  • And it talked about social media, its impact,
  • 00:10:23.164 --> 00:10:25.700
  • Cyberbullying, things like that.
  • 00:10:25.700 --> 00:10:28.436
  • But we can teach our young people--amen?--
  • 00:10:28.436 --> 00:10:35.210
  • That jesus has given us his peace.
  • 00:10:35.210 --> 00:10:39.748
  • "let not--" that's our part.
  • 00:10:39.748 --> 00:10:42.283
  • "let not your heart be troubled."
  • 00:10:42.283 --> 00:10:43.618
  • The moment it start,
  • 00:10:43.618 --> 00:10:44.953
  • "let not your heart be troubled."
  • 00:10:44.953 --> 00:10:46.287
  • Just quote it. quote it to your heart.
  • 00:10:46.287 --> 00:10:47.622
  • "let not your heart be troubled."
  • 00:10:47.622 --> 00:10:48.957
  • Say it under your breath.
  • 00:10:48.957 --> 00:10:50.291
  • "let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."
  • 00:10:50.291 --> 00:10:52.193
  • You know what's gonna happen?
  • 00:10:52.193 --> 00:10:53.561
  • More shalom will flow because shalom is there already.
  • 00:10:53.561 --> 00:10:56.798
  • He has given us-- he has bequeathed us his shalom,
  • 00:10:56.798 --> 00:10:59.667
  • Well-being, and peace.
  • 00:10:59.667 --> 00:11:01.736
  • So the more you let not your heart be troubled,
  • 00:11:01.736 --> 00:11:03.538
  • The more well-being flows into your body.
  • 00:11:03.538 --> 00:11:07.542
  • You know, there's a verse that says,
  • 00:11:07.542 --> 00:11:08.877
  • "a sound heart is the tree of--" sorry.
  • 00:11:08.877 --> 00:11:11.412
  • "a sound heart is the life of the flesh."
  • 00:11:11.412 --> 00:11:15.183
  • I'm quoting the king james.
  • 00:11:15.183 --> 00:11:16.518
  • "a sound heart is the life of the flesh."
  • 00:11:16.518 --> 00:11:18.720
  • You know, the word "sound" is the word "healing," "marpe,"
  • 00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:22.724
  • From the word "rapha."
  • 00:11:22.724 --> 00:11:24.058
  • Marpe is the noun.
  • 00:11:24.058 --> 00:11:25.393
  • "a marpe heart is the life of the flesh."
  • 00:11:25.393 --> 00:11:28.363
  • Then, you look carefully at marpe.
  • 00:11:28.363 --> 00:11:30.598
  • It's also the hebrew-- when the hebrew says
  • 00:11:30.598 --> 00:11:33.535
  • "tranquility" and "peace," it's marpe.
  • 00:11:33.535 --> 00:11:37.138
  • A tranquil heart,
  • 00:11:37.138 --> 00:11:39.440
  • A heart that is tranquil is life to your body,
  • 00:11:39.440 --> 00:11:45.280
  • Life to the flesh, amen?
  • 00:11:45.280 --> 00:11:48.349
  • So, god is saying, "be very courageous.
  • 00:11:48.349 --> 00:11:52.687
  • Be strong and very courageous."
  • 00:11:52.687 --> 00:11:54.022
  • Now, these are instructions on how to possess the land.
  • 00:11:54.022 --> 00:11:56.090
  • Chapter 1 itself, from the onset,
  • 00:11:56.090 --> 00:11:58.526
  • God advised joshua,
  • 00:11:58.526 --> 00:11:59.961
  • "listen, every place you step will be yours.
  • 00:11:59.961 --> 00:12:02.664
  • Even though i've given it to you,
  • 00:12:02.664 --> 00:12:04.032
  • You have to lay claim on it.
  • 00:12:04.032 --> 00:12:06.067
  • You have to possess your possessions.
  • 00:12:06.067 --> 00:12:10.071
  • You have to inherit your inheritance.
  • 00:12:10.071 --> 00:12:12.707
  • You gotta place your claim,"
  • 00:12:12.707 --> 00:12:14.609
  • Amen, "and every place you place your claim,
  • 00:12:14.609 --> 00:12:17.178
  • Even though i have given it to you,
  • 00:12:17.178 --> 00:12:19.380
  • It becomes actually yours when you lay a claim on it."
  • 00:12:19.380 --> 00:12:24.185
  • Amen? amen?
  • 00:12:24.185 --> 00:12:27.488
  • So there are places where they don't teach jesus heals today.
  • 00:12:27.488 --> 00:12:32.393
  • So you know what goes on in the church?
  • 00:12:32.393 --> 00:12:34.529
  • People are finding freedom from sin
  • 00:12:34.529 --> 00:12:37.632
  • And from powers of darkness.
  • 00:12:37.632 --> 00:12:40.501
  • They are born again.
  • 00:12:40.501 --> 00:12:41.836
  • They love the lord, but they don't preach healing.
  • 00:12:41.836 --> 00:12:44.539
  • You don't see the healing manifestation.
  • 00:12:44.539 --> 00:12:46.908
  • Notice that. praise the lord.
  • 00:12:46.908 --> 00:12:50.178
  • So, instructions to possess the land.
  • 00:12:50.178 --> 00:12:52.914
  • Then god says, "only be strong and very courageous."
  • 00:12:52.914 --> 00:12:55.316
  • And then comes verse 8.
  • 00:12:55.316 --> 00:12:56.684
  • Wow, what has this got to do with possessing the land?
  • 00:12:56.684 --> 00:12:59.988
  • Joshua 1:8, it says, "this book of the law
  • 00:12:59.988 --> 00:13:02.023
  • Shall not depart from your mouth."
  • 00:13:02.023 --> 00:13:04.592
  • It's all about possessing the land, you know?
  • 00:13:04.592 --> 00:13:06.761
  • "this book of the law shall not depart
  • 00:13:06.761 --> 00:13:08.096
  • From your mouth, but you shall meditate in it
  • 00:13:08.096 --> 00:13:09.898
  • Day and night, that you may observe to do
  • 00:13:09.898 --> 00:13:11.966
  • According to all that is written in it.
  • 00:13:11.966 --> 00:13:13.701
  • For then, for then, for then you will make your way prosperous,
  • 00:13:13.701 --> 00:13:18.239
  • And then you will have good success."
  • 00:13:18.239 --> 00:13:22.176
  • "you will make your way prosperous,
  • 00:13:22.176 --> 00:13:24.245
  • And you will have good success when you meditate on god's word
  • 00:13:24.245 --> 00:13:28.316
  • Day and night," amen.
  • 00:13:28.316 --> 00:13:31.953
  • Psalms 1, same thing:
  • 00:13:31.953 --> 00:13:35.356
  • "but his delight is in the law of the lord."
  • 00:13:35.356 --> 00:13:37.759
  • Say, "the law of the lord." i'm gonna explain that.
  • 00:13:37.759 --> 00:13:40.395
  • "but his delight," his joy, "is in the law of the lord.
  • 00:13:40.395 --> 00:13:42.830
  • And in his law he meditates day and night," again.
  • 00:13:42.830 --> 00:13:46.534
  • "he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water."
  • 00:13:46.534 --> 00:13:49.537
  • He's not a tree just growing. he's planted.
  • 00:13:49.537 --> 00:13:52.407
  • Someone who cares for that tree planted.
  • 00:13:52.407 --> 00:13:57.445
  • "planted" means it's done by someone.
  • 00:13:57.445 --> 00:13:59.314
  • To care, care, the idea of caring for it.
  • 00:13:59.314 --> 00:14:02.684
  • "you shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water,
  • 00:14:02.684 --> 00:14:04.953
  • That bringeth forth your fruit in your season.
  • 00:14:04.953 --> 00:14:07.155
  • Your leaf shall not wither."
  • 00:14:07.155 --> 00:14:08.723
  • Aha! wither, brown.
  • 00:14:08.723 --> 00:14:11.125
  • Your leaf will always be green.
  • 00:14:11.125 --> 00:14:14.162
  • And i believe this refers to your health
  • 00:14:14.162 --> 00:14:16.264
  • And your wholeness to a good, old age.
  • 00:14:16.264 --> 00:14:21.035
  • "whose leaf shall not wither." you will not dry up.
  • 00:14:21.035 --> 00:14:27.041
  • And look at the last part:
  • 00:14:27.041 --> 00:14:28.543
  • "and whatever you do shall prosper."
  • 00:14:28.543 --> 00:14:33.181
  • Whatever you do shall--
  • 00:14:33.181 --> 00:14:34.515
  • This is greater than midas touch.
  • 00:14:34.515 --> 00:14:37.085
  • Midas touch--midas wanted-- "whatever i do becomes gold."
  • 00:14:37.085 --> 00:14:42.657
  • So whatever god says, don't limit it.
  • 00:14:42.657 --> 00:14:45.927
  • If god says, "whatever!" you didn't say,
  • 00:14:45.927 --> 00:14:49.030
  • "some parts of it"-- only the spiritual part of it.
  • 00:14:49.030 --> 00:14:54.202
  • Whatever is whatever, okay, amen?
  • 00:14:54.202 --> 00:14:58.139
  • I believe in my god. what about you?
  • 00:14:58.139 --> 00:15:02.443
  • Whatever you do prospers.
  • 00:15:02.443 --> 00:15:04.312
  • And the key, the only key it seems like, is meditate.
  • 00:15:04.312 --> 00:15:07.982
  • Meditate.
  • 00:15:07.982 --> 00:15:09.317
  • The part you are supposed to do actively is meditate
  • 00:15:09.317 --> 00:15:12.020
  • Day and night.
  • 00:15:12.020 --> 00:15:13.688
  • So take the verse, for example,
  • 00:15:13.688 --> 00:15:15.023
  • "peace i leave with you.
  • 00:15:15.023 --> 00:15:16.357
  • My peace i give unto you"-- john 14, verse 27, okay?
  • 00:15:16.357 --> 00:15:20.962
  • And all this is my meditation all these past years.
  • 00:15:20.962 --> 00:15:25.366
  • So i take it-- it began as a meditation.
  • 00:15:25.366 --> 00:15:26.701
  • "peace i live with you."
  • 00:15:26.701 --> 00:15:28.036
  • Before i ever taught on it,
  • 00:15:28.036 --> 00:15:29.370
  • Before i ever have a teaching called "live the let-go life,"
  • 00:15:29.370 --> 00:15:31.773
  • I meditated, all right?
  • 00:15:31.773 --> 00:15:33.274
  • "peace i leave with you. my peace i give unto you."
  • 00:15:33.274 --> 00:15:35.676
  • Is there a difference? i meditate on that.
  • 00:15:35.676 --> 00:15:38.379
  • "peace i live with you"-- my peace is his peace, amen--
  • 00:15:38.379 --> 00:15:42.083
  • "not as the world gives"--
  • 00:15:42.083 --> 00:15:43.418
  • What does that mean, "not as the world gives"?--
  • 00:15:43.418 --> 00:15:45.086
  • "give i unto you.
  • 00:15:45.086 --> 00:15:46.754
  • Let not your heart be troubled."
  • 00:15:46.754 --> 00:15:48.089
  • Why is this put right in this verse here?
  • 00:15:48.089 --> 00:15:50.391
  • Why? that's our part.
  • 00:15:50.391 --> 00:15:52.760
  • So if i don't experience his peace,
  • 00:15:52.760 --> 00:15:54.695
  • Even though it's given to me, there's a blockage.
  • 00:15:54.695 --> 00:15:57.465
  • It's my fear allowing my heart to be troubled.
  • 00:15:57.465 --> 00:15:59.734
  • I must let not, and then it flows.
  • 00:15:59.734 --> 00:16:03.471
  • The peace and the well-being flows.
  • 00:16:03.471 --> 00:16:04.806
  • So it comes from meditation. you meditate, you meditate.
  • 00:16:04.806 --> 00:16:07.842
  • Whatever you're worried about, you're worried about old age,
  • 00:16:07.842 --> 00:16:10.812
  • Fear of old age,--all right?-- meditate on psalms 92:
  • 00:16:10.812 --> 00:16:15.716
  • "they shall still bring forth fruit in old age."
  • 00:16:15.716 --> 00:16:18.920
  • By the way, i meditate in advanced years,
  • 00:16:18.920 --> 00:16:21.722
  • Because the word down there is actually "advanced years."
  • 00:16:21.722 --> 00:16:24.659
  • Advanced years means advanced years.
  • 00:16:24.659 --> 00:16:27.328
  • Hundred years old is advanced years.
  • 00:16:27.328 --> 00:16:29.530
  • But old age has the idea of old, all right?
  • 00:16:29.530 --> 00:16:33.501
  • So old--it's actually old age,
  • 00:16:33.501 --> 00:16:35.336
  • But old age doesn't mean you are old.
  • 00:16:35.336 --> 00:16:39.874
  • You understand?
  • 00:16:39.874 --> 00:16:42.210
  • Some songs are old, but they're ever green.
  • 00:16:42.210 --> 00:16:45.546
  • So you can be ever green, amen?
  • 00:16:45.546 --> 00:16:49.984
  • Okay, another thing i do is that, when i hear good things,
  • 00:16:49.984 --> 00:16:52.353
  • All right, i always say, "amen!"
  • 00:16:52.353 --> 00:16:53.821
  • That means--"amen" means "so be it unto me."
  • 00:16:53.821 --> 00:16:57.325
  • Because the bible says, "for all the promi--"
  • 00:16:57.325 --> 00:16:58.926
  • I didn't quote the whole thing.
  • 00:16:58.926 --> 00:17:00.261
  • "for all the promises of god in him are yes and amen,
  • 00:17:00.261 --> 00:17:03.397
  • Unto the glory of god by us."
  • 00:17:03.397 --> 00:17:05.566
  • So "by us" means we do the amen.
  • 00:17:05.566 --> 00:17:08.002
  • We are glorifying god because we are saying--
  • 00:17:08.002 --> 00:17:10.071
  • "amen" is actually the root word of "emunah,"
  • 00:17:10.071 --> 00:17:13.207
  • Which is "faith" in hebrew.
  • 00:17:13.207 --> 00:17:15.977
  • So god is glorified because i've just expressed faith...
  • 00:17:15.977 --> 00:17:23.217
  • All right?
  • 00:17:23.217 --> 00:17:25.453
  • Now, i told you just now that the word--
  • 00:17:25.453 --> 00:17:28.689
  • To remember the word,
  • 00:17:28.689 --> 00:17:30.024
  • "his delight is in the law of the lord,
  • 00:17:30.024 --> 00:17:31.459
  • The law of the lord."
  • 00:17:31.459 --> 00:17:32.793
  • As well as also joshua 1:8--
  • 00:17:32.793 --> 00:17:34.462
  • We saw that "this book of the law
  • 00:17:34.462 --> 00:17:35.796
  • Shall not depart from your mouth."
  • 00:17:35.796 --> 00:17:37.798
  • "this book of the law."
  • 00:17:37.798 --> 00:17:39.133
  • "pastor, you see, it tells you to meditate on the law."
  • 00:17:39.133 --> 00:17:41.636
  • Now, here's where i think-- in times past,
  • 00:17:41.636 --> 00:17:44.639
  • I didn't pause to share this, to teach this,
  • 00:17:44.639 --> 00:17:47.909
  • But i think it's time for you to get this, okay?
  • 00:17:47.909 --> 00:17:51.279
  • "this book of the law," or "the law of the lord,"
  • 00:17:51.279 --> 00:17:54.315
  • The law of definite-- "the law of the lord."
  • 00:17:54.315 --> 00:17:57.084
  • Whenever you find the phrase "the law of the lord,"
  • 00:17:57.084 --> 00:17:59.253
  • Or "the book of the law," it can mean--
  • 00:17:59.253 --> 00:18:01.455
  • Listen carefully, all right?
  • 00:18:01.455 --> 00:18:03.191
  • Always "the law of the lord," always--not "can mean."
  • 00:18:03.191 --> 00:18:06.727
  • It is.
  • 00:18:06.727 --> 00:18:08.062
  • "the law of the lord" is not the ten commandments.
  • 00:18:08.062 --> 00:18:11.599
  • It is the entire word of god.
  • 00:18:11.599 --> 00:18:16.037
  • In psalms 19, there's a beautiful phrase that says,
  • 00:18:16.037 --> 00:18:20.374
  • "the law of the lord is perfect, converting the soul;
  • 00:18:20.374 --> 00:18:23.844
  • The testimony of the lord is sure,
  • 00:18:23.844 --> 00:18:25.179
  • Making wise the simple."
  • 00:18:25.179 --> 00:18:26.981
  • "the law of the lord" here is instruction.
  • 00:18:26.981 --> 00:18:31.652
  • Torah is instruction. "torah" can mean instruction.
  • 00:18:31.652 --> 00:18:34.622
  • That's all.
  • 00:18:34.622 --> 00:18:35.957
  • You ask the jew today, you ask any jew,
  • 00:18:35.957 --> 00:18:37.725
  • "is torah instruction?" they'll tell you that, amen.
  • 00:18:37.725 --> 00:18:46.267
  • In fact, the christian standard bible
  • 00:18:46.267 --> 00:18:48.903
  • Have this here: "the instruction of the lord
  • 00:18:48.903 --> 00:18:52.006
  • Is perfect, converting the soul."
  • 00:18:52.006 --> 00:18:54.442
  • We all know that it is the instruction of the gospel
  • 00:18:54.442 --> 00:18:58.346
  • That converts us.
  • 00:18:58.346 --> 00:19:00.147
  • The soul cannot be converted by the ten commandments.
  • 00:19:00.147 --> 00:19:03.184
  • "for by the law is the knowledge of sin."
  • 00:19:03.184 --> 00:19:06.554
  • By the law, no flesh is justified.
  • 00:19:06.554 --> 00:19:08.956
  • So how can the law of the lord convert the soul
  • 00:19:08.956 --> 00:19:11.792
  • Unless it's the instruction, it's the sermon,
  • 00:19:11.792 --> 00:19:14.562
  • It's the preaching, it is the word itself?
  • 00:19:14.562 --> 00:19:17.898
  • So when the bible says,
  • 00:19:17.898 --> 00:19:19.233
  • "meditate on the law of the lord,"
  • 00:19:19.233 --> 00:19:20.701
  • It doesn't always mean ten commandments, okay?
  • 00:19:20.701 --> 00:19:23.337
  • So the testimony of the lord is perfect.
  • 00:19:23.337 --> 00:19:26.507
  • How many agree the word of god is perfect?
  • 00:19:26.507 --> 00:19:29.377
  • So, talking about the book of god,
  • 00:19:29.377 --> 00:19:32.146
  • "this book of the law shall not depart from your mouth."
  • 00:19:32.146 --> 00:19:33.648
  • Now let's go back to joshua 1:8.
  • 00:19:33.648 --> 00:19:36.817
  • The lord is talking to joshua, and the lord used this word:
  • 00:19:36.817 --> 00:19:40.021
  • "zen," in hebrew, zeh, all right, or "zeh."
  • 00:19:40.021 --> 00:19:43.457
  • Zeh, you think of zeh: "sefer," book--zeh.
  • 00:19:43.457 --> 00:19:49.330
  • Zeh means "this book of the law."
  • 00:19:49.330 --> 00:19:51.332
  • What do you think joshua was doing when god said,
  • 00:19:51.332 --> 00:19:53.301
  • "hey, this book of the law, meditate in it day and night"?
  • 00:19:53.301 --> 00:19:56.971
  • What do you think he was doing? he was reading!
  • 00:19:56.971 --> 00:20:03.944
  • He was reading the book for god to say, "this book of the law
  • 00:20:03.944 --> 00:20:10.318
  • Shall not depart out of your mouth,
  • 00:20:10.318 --> 00:20:12.486
  • But you shall meditate."
  • 00:20:12.486 --> 00:20:13.821
  • And the word "meditate" here, as well as in psalms, is mutter.
  • 00:20:13.821 --> 00:20:17.024
  • "mutter on it day and night."
  • 00:20:17.024 --> 00:20:19.260
  • Now, when you meditate on god's word,
  • 00:20:19.260 --> 00:20:20.594
  • Some things happen to you, okay?
  • 00:20:20.594 --> 00:20:23.164
  • And we look at a messianic prophecy--
  • 00:20:23.164 --> 00:20:25.199
  • You want some more?
  • 00:20:25.199 --> 00:20:26.534
  • Can we take--we should-- bit more time, okay--can?
  • 00:20:26.534 --> 00:20:29.603
  • All right, let me go to psalm 119, okay?
  • 00:20:29.603 --> 00:20:32.340
  • It says here, "oh, how i love your law!"
  • 00:20:32.340 --> 00:20:34.742
  • Now, again, it's not
  • 00:20:34.742 --> 00:20:36.077
  • "how i love your ten commandments," okay?
  • 00:20:36.077 --> 00:20:38.913
  • "i love your law! i love your word!"
  • 00:20:38.913 --> 00:20:41.549
  • Amen?
  • 00:20:41.549 --> 00:20:42.917
  • Whether it's the word from five books of moses,
  • 00:20:42.917 --> 00:20:46.287
  • Or even the psalms, and for us, it's even--
  • 00:20:46.287 --> 00:20:48.789
  • We have the new testament, amen?
  • 00:20:48.789 --> 00:20:50.558
  • It's all god's word.
  • 00:20:50.558 --> 00:20:52.526
  • But david expresses it as, "oh, how love i your law.
  • 00:20:52.526 --> 00:20:56.197
  • How i love your law!
  • 00:20:56.197 --> 00:20:57.531
  • It is my meditation all the day.
  • 00:20:57.531 --> 00:20:59.667
  • You, through your commandments, make me wiser than my enemies."
  • 00:20:59.667 --> 00:21:04.205
  • Yeah, people, look up here.
  • 00:21:04.205 --> 00:21:05.539
  • You know your bible, right, is divided into old testament
  • 00:21:05.539 --> 00:21:08.709
  • And new testament?
  • 00:21:08.709 --> 00:21:10.044
  • Now, old testament is written in hebrew, okay?
  • 00:21:10.044 --> 00:21:12.980
  • New testament is in greek.
  • 00:21:12.980 --> 00:21:15.583
  • But many years ago, even before christ came--
  • 00:21:15.583 --> 00:21:18.819
  • Right?--there was a group of 70 jewish people
  • 00:21:18.819 --> 00:21:22.256
  • That came together, amazing scholars.
  • 00:21:22.256 --> 00:21:24.024
  • They are amazing scholars, very smart people,
  • 00:21:24.024 --> 00:21:26.727
  • Very sharp--all right?-- and godly people.
  • 00:21:26.727 --> 00:21:30.030
  • They came together, and they produced
  • 00:21:30.030 --> 00:21:32.133
  • The greek version of the old testament,
  • 00:21:32.133 --> 00:21:34.402
  • Which is actually in hebrew.
  • 00:21:34.402 --> 00:21:36.370
  • It's called the septuagint.
  • 00:21:36.370 --> 00:21:38.539
  • "sep-tua-gint," all right, 70, the 70,
  • 00:21:38.539 --> 00:21:42.643
  • Named after the 70 elders.
  • 00:21:42.643 --> 00:21:44.278
  • In the greek-- i'm gonna tell you
  • 00:21:44.278 --> 00:21:45.713
  • The greek septuagint of these verses.
  • 00:21:45.713 --> 00:21:47.681
  • Are you ready?
  • 00:21:47.681 --> 00:21:49.283
  • "i have more sunesis than all my teachers.
  • 00:21:49.283 --> 00:21:53.821
  • I have more sunesis than all my ancient elders."
  • 00:21:53.821 --> 00:21:59.226
  • Okay, who is this speaking of? it's speaking of jesus.
  • 00:21:59.226 --> 00:22:03.831
  • But, of course, that's the first application
  • 00:22:03.831 --> 00:22:05.599
  • That i see here.
  • 00:22:05.599 --> 00:22:06.934
  • It's a messianic application.
  • 00:22:06.934 --> 00:22:08.669
  • When he was young, he meditated on god's word.
  • 00:22:08.669 --> 00:22:10.538
  • By the way, people think
  • 00:22:10.538 --> 00:22:11.872
  • He was instant in his knowledge of the bible,
  • 00:22:11.872 --> 00:22:13.207
  • Even though he wrote the word.
  • 00:22:13.207 --> 00:22:14.542
  • No, he came as a man. he had to grow as a boy.
  • 00:22:14.542 --> 00:22:17.645
  • The bible says he increased in wisdom, right?
  • 00:22:17.645 --> 00:22:22.650
  • So, he had to meditate on god's word day and night.
  • 00:22:22.650 --> 00:22:25.553
  • We found his secret.
  • 00:22:25.553 --> 00:22:26.887
  • So in--the word "sunesis"-- now, "sun" means together.
  • 00:22:26.887 --> 00:22:30.090
  • There is two things coming together.
  • 00:22:30.090 --> 00:22:31.725
  • "sunesis" means to put two and two together.
  • 00:22:31.725 --> 00:22:34.929
  • You see something by putting two and two together.
  • 00:22:34.929 --> 00:22:36.764
  • There are people who read the bible, all right,
  • 00:22:36.764 --> 00:22:38.732
  • And all they see-- they can memorize it even--
  • 00:22:38.732 --> 00:22:41.202
  • And all they see is the superficial reading
  • 00:22:41.202 --> 00:22:43.771
  • Of the bible, but someone else comes along,
  • 00:22:43.771 --> 00:22:46.173
  • And they put two and two together.
  • 00:22:46.173 --> 00:22:48.542
  • "oh, this means this.
  • 00:22:48.542 --> 00:22:50.311
  • That means--this means-- this verse is saying--
  • 00:22:50.311 --> 00:22:52.646
  • That means we can--"
  • 00:22:52.646 --> 00:22:53.981
  • They are able to put two and two together.
  • 00:22:53.981 --> 00:22:56.450
  • Now, jesus at the age of 12, they found him at the temple.
  • 00:22:56.450 --> 00:23:00.521
  • The parents found him at the temple,
  • 00:23:00.521 --> 00:23:02.223
  • And he was asking the doctors of the law--
  • 00:23:02.223 --> 00:23:05.526
  • The most brilliant people of that day, amen?
  • 00:23:05.526 --> 00:23:08.796
  • These are like the professors in jerusalem,
  • 00:23:08.796 --> 00:23:11.632
  • Professors of the law, the word of god.
  • 00:23:11.632 --> 00:23:12.967
  • And they are also professors of education
  • 00:23:12.967 --> 00:23:15.135
  • Because education back then was in the temple.
  • 00:23:15.135 --> 00:23:17.404
  • And they are very smart people, very sharp.
  • 00:23:17.404 --> 00:23:22.243
  • And jesus was asking them questions,
  • 00:23:22.243 --> 00:23:24.812
  • And then the bible says,
  • 00:23:24.812 --> 00:23:26.380
  • "and all who heard jesus were"-- at the age of 12 years old--
  • 00:23:26.380 --> 00:23:29.984
  • "they were astonished at his understanding and answers."
  • 00:23:29.984 --> 00:23:33.287
  • And you know what is this word, "understanding"?
  • 00:23:33.287 --> 00:23:35.623
  • It's the word "su-nie-mi,"
  • 00:23:35.623 --> 00:23:39.627
  • Same word as the one we saw just now.
  • 00:23:39.627 --> 00:23:42.396
  • "i have more understanding than all my teachers,"
  • 00:23:42.396 --> 00:23:45.032
  • All right?--
  • 00:23:45.032 --> 00:23:46.634
  • Except that one is in the verb form.
  • 00:23:46.634 --> 00:23:48.202
  • This is in the noun.
  • 00:23:48.202 --> 00:23:51.071
  • One is in the noun; one is in the verb.
  • 00:23:51.071 --> 00:23:53.073
  • But it's the same word: suniemi, sunesis.
  • 00:23:53.073 --> 00:23:57.144
  • Got it?
  • 00:23:57.144 --> 00:23:59.079
  • But that tells us how he grew, amen, and became--
  • 00:23:59.079 --> 00:24:03.384
  • He began to see more and more.
  • 00:24:03.384 --> 00:24:04.752
  • You see in the scriptures.
  • 00:24:04.752 --> 00:24:06.086
