Joseph Prince | Joseph Prince - Pray In The Spirit, Reign In Life | October 3, 2025
- ...
- 00:00:00.633 --> 00:00:01.010
- Joseph prince: when you pray in tongues, it's your
- 00:00:12.455 --> 00:00:13.656
- Spirit praying, amen?
- 00:00:13.790 --> 00:00:15.391
- After through your vocal cords, amen?
- 00:00:15.525 --> 00:00:16.192
- But it's your spirit praying.
- 00:00:17.827 --> 00:00:19.162
- But the benefit, whoever speaks in an unknown tongue,
- 00:00:19.162 --> 00:00:21.898
- Edifies his spirit?
- 00:00:21.898 --> 00:00:23.800
- No, himself.
- 00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:25.602
- The more we pray in the spirit, we'll make our way prosperous.
- 00:00:25.602 --> 00:00:29.038
- Male announcer: feeling anxious, stuck, or unsure how to pray?
- 00:00:29.105 --> 00:00:32.775
- In today's message, joseph prince shares
- 00:00:32.775 --> 00:00:34.811
- How praying in the spirit unlocks god's power
- 00:00:34.811 --> 00:00:37.714
- Exactly when you need it most.
- 00:00:37.714 --> 00:00:40.250
- Announcer: and now here's pastor joseph prince
- 00:00:40.250 --> 00:00:42.652
- With today's program.
- 00:00:42.652 --> 00:00:44.187
- Joseph prince: now, god promised us something, something new.
- 00:00:44.187 --> 00:00:47.590
- In the old testament, he prophesied about our day and age
- 00:00:47.590 --> 00:00:50.493
- In isaiah 41 about a new weapon.
- 00:00:50.493 --> 00:00:53.329
- Look at this in isaiah 41: "behold, i have made you a new,
- 00:00:53.329 --> 00:00:58.768
- Sharp threshing sledge with double edges."
- 00:00:58.768 --> 00:01:02.939
- Now this word "double edges" is from the hebrew, which means
- 00:01:02.939 --> 00:01:06.876
- Double mouth.
- 00:01:06.876 --> 00:01:08.478
- Double mouth, piphiyyoth.
- 00:01:08.478 --> 00:01:09.979
- Double mouth, from the word "peh," your mouth.
- 00:01:09.979 --> 00:01:12.448
- Now, "you will thresh the mountains and pulverize them,
- 00:01:12.448 --> 00:01:16.819
- And will make the hills like chaff.
- 00:01:16.819 --> 00:01:19.989
- You will winnow them, and the wind will carry them away,
- 00:01:19.989 --> 00:01:23.626
- And the storm will scatter them; but you will rejoice in
- 00:01:23.626 --> 00:01:27.997
- The lord, you will glory in the holy one of israel."
- 00:01:27.997 --> 00:01:30.200
- Now it says that god will give you a new, sharp
- 00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:34.270
- Threshing instrument.
- 00:01:34.270 --> 00:01:35.638
- We are about to see this threshing sledge.
- 00:01:35.638 --> 00:01:38.107
- The word "edge" there is double mouth.
- 00:01:38.107 --> 00:01:40.009
- Literally the edge is from the word "peh" which is
- 00:01:40.009 --> 00:01:43.413
- Mouth, amen.
- 00:01:43.413 --> 00:01:46.149
- So as we pray in the spirit, we go around our mountain.
- 00:01:46.149 --> 00:01:50.220
- We go around our mountain, praise the lord.
- 00:01:50.220 --> 00:01:52.655
- You can do this the whole day.
- 00:01:52.655 --> 00:01:54.657
- [speaking in tongues]
- 00:01:54.657 --> 00:01:57.193
- Like the children of israel went around the walls of jericho.
- 00:01:57.193 --> 00:02:00.530
- You go around your problem, amen, wherever you're going,
- 00:02:00.530 --> 00:02:02.599
- Amen, in a circuit, praise the lord.
- 00:02:02.599 --> 00:02:05.835
- And you're making progress like going up the spiral staircase.
- 00:02:05.835 --> 00:02:09.639
- You're going higher.
- 00:02:09.639 --> 00:02:11.007
- You're praying in the spirit.
- 00:02:11.007 --> 00:02:12.342
- Some conditions that you say, like the doctor says,
- 00:02:12.342 --> 00:02:15.011
- In the natural, it might take a long time for you to recover
- 00:02:15.011 --> 00:02:18.548
- Or it's incurable or whatever.
- 00:02:18.548 --> 00:02:19.983
- You can just pray over it.
- 00:02:19.983 --> 00:02:21.317
- Say, "lord, this is what a man says.
- 00:02:21.317 --> 00:02:23.419
- They mean well, but the things that are impossible with man is
- 00:02:23.419 --> 00:02:26.189
- Possible with god, the bible says.
- 00:02:26.189 --> 00:02:28.691
- So i thank you.
- 00:02:28.691 --> 00:02:30.026
- Let your holy spirit pray for my heart.
- 00:02:30.026 --> 00:02:32.095
- Pray for my lungs.
- 00:02:32.095 --> 00:02:33.463
- Pray for my liver."
- 00:02:33.463 --> 00:02:34.931
- Just tell the lord.
- 00:02:34.931 --> 00:02:36.299
- The lord knows.
- 00:02:36.299 --> 00:02:37.634
- The holy spirit in you knows how to make perfect prayers.
- 00:02:37.634 --> 00:02:39.569
- And pray. pray in the spirit.
- 00:02:39.569 --> 00:02:42.272
- Start praying in the spirit.
- 00:02:42.272 --> 00:02:43.606
- Now, i'm not saying it's going to be instantaneous.
- 00:02:43.606 --> 00:02:44.974
- Most of the time, you'll find when you pray in the spirit,
- 00:02:44.974 --> 00:02:46.643
- It's not like speaking to the mountain
- 00:02:46.643 --> 00:02:47.977
- Straight away, amen.
- 00:02:47.977 --> 00:02:49.379
- You speak to the mountain, many a times, the mountain moves.
- 00:02:49.379 --> 00:02:51.781
- We have prayed for people and instantly, they have
- 00:02:51.781 --> 00:02:54.017
- The manifestation.
- 00:02:54.017 --> 00:02:55.385
- Whether it's their shoulder pain or whatever it is, they have
- 00:02:55.385 --> 00:02:57.453
- An instant manifestation.
- 00:02:57.453 --> 00:02:58.788
- That is like mark 11:23, amen.
- 00:02:58.788 --> 00:03:01.157
- But this prayer usually is a protracted time.
- 00:03:01.157 --> 00:03:04.827
- I tell you what's happening.
- 00:03:04.827 --> 00:03:06.195
- The bible says that whoever prays in an unknown tongue
- 00:03:06.195 --> 00:03:09.966
- Edifies himself, build himself up.
- 00:03:09.966 --> 00:03:13.169
- Build himself up.
- 00:03:13.169 --> 00:03:15.104
- I love it.
- 00:03:15.104 --> 00:03:16.439
- Now we have thought because our--we thought that--the bible
- 00:03:16.439 --> 00:03:20.310
- Says if i pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prays.
- 00:03:20.310 --> 00:03:23.379
- So that's true.
- 00:03:23.379 --> 00:03:25.381
- But it is a wrong conclusion to say, because my spirit prays,
- 00:03:25.381 --> 00:03:29.552
- Only my spirit is edified.
- 00:03:29.552 --> 00:03:31.754
- That has been a wrong perception that we had of this gift.
- 00:03:31.754 --> 00:03:37.026
- When it says, "edify himself," is the total self: spirit, soul,
- 00:03:37.026 --> 00:03:41.064
- And body.
- 00:03:41.064 --> 00:03:42.432
- The prayer comes from your spirit.
- 00:03:42.432 --> 00:03:43.966
- My spirit prays.
- 00:03:43.966 --> 00:03:45.301
- When you pray in tongues, it's your spirit praying, amen?
- 00:03:45.301 --> 00:03:47.937
- Out through your vocal cords, amen.
- 00:03:47.937 --> 00:03:50.039
- But it's the spirit praying.
- 00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:51.641
- But the benefit, whoever speaks in an unknown tongue edifies
- 00:03:51.641 --> 00:03:55.311
- His spirit?
- 00:03:55.311 --> 00:03:56.679
- No, himself, his entire self.
- 00:03:56.679 --> 00:03:58.848
- But i'll tell you what happens.
- 00:03:58.848 --> 00:04:00.350
- Sometimes the first few days when you're praying in tongues
- 00:04:00.350 --> 00:04:01.951
- Over your situation, let's say you've got a liver problem
- 00:04:01.951 --> 00:04:05.254
- Or whatever it is.
- 00:04:05.254 --> 00:04:06.622
- You know, you say, god, your holy spirit knows how to pray
- 00:04:06.622 --> 00:04:08.658
- This prayer.
- 00:04:08.658 --> 00:04:10.026
- I do not know how to pray as i ought.
- 00:04:10.026 --> 00:04:11.361
- But your spirit knows, romans 8:26.
- 00:04:11.361 --> 00:04:13.863
- So lord, i just ask that your spirit intercede for me, amen?
- 00:04:13.863 --> 00:04:17.800
- And you pray.
- 00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:19.135
- Prayer is in the realm of grace.
- 00:04:19.135 --> 00:04:21.037
- Because prayer is trusting god to do the work.
- 00:04:21.037 --> 00:04:23.840
- Prayer is you resting and you requesting and you are praying,
- 00:04:23.840 --> 00:04:26.943
- Asking god to do it.
- 00:04:26.943 --> 00:04:28.277
- That's grace, amen.
- 00:04:28.277 --> 00:04:30.113
- That's why under the law in the ten commandments,
- 00:04:30.113 --> 00:04:32.782
- There is no, there's no, "thou shall pray."
- 00:04:32.782 --> 00:04:35.051
- Why?
- 00:04:35.051 --> 00:04:36.386
- It's all supposing man's strength.
- 00:04:36.386 --> 00:04:39.322
- You shall not, you shall not, you shall not.
- 00:04:39.322 --> 00:04:41.557
- It doesn't say, believe god and pray.
- 00:04:41.557 --> 00:04:44.394
- Believe god and pray, amen?
- 00:04:44.394 --> 00:04:46.696
- It's under grace.
- 00:04:46.696 --> 00:04:48.030
- So when you're under grace, the more you pray,
- 00:04:48.030 --> 00:04:50.433
- The more you're under grace, amen.
- 00:04:50.433 --> 00:04:51.801
- You're living literally under grace, praise the lord,
- 00:04:51.801 --> 00:04:55.338
- Hallelujah, amen.
- 00:04:55.338 --> 00:04:56.706
- So you pray for your child.
- 00:04:56.706 --> 00:04:58.040
- So holy spirit, you know how to pray for my child.
- 00:04:58.040 --> 00:04:59.509
- You know how to pray for my husband.
- 00:04:59.509 --> 00:05:00.843
- You know how to pray for my wife.
- 00:05:00.843 --> 00:05:02.211
- Lord, i release it right now in jesus's name.
- 00:05:02.211 --> 00:05:04.313
- [speaking in tongues]
- 00:05:04.313 --> 00:05:06.315
- And just trust the lord. sometimes it gets more intense.
- 00:05:06.315 --> 00:05:09.685
- You and your husband may even do a warfare, but don't give up.
- 00:05:09.685 --> 00:05:15.458
- When that happens, be encouraged, amen.
- 00:05:15.458 --> 00:05:18.194
- You know the warfare and the devil is like having his
- 00:05:18.194 --> 00:05:22.432
- Final, in the army they call it the last burst of fire.
- 00:05:22.432 --> 00:05:25.368
- He's fleeing.
- 00:05:25.368 --> 00:05:26.736
- The enemy knows he's defeated.
- 00:05:26.736 --> 00:05:28.471
- Because this is a sword of the spirit.
- 00:05:28.471 --> 00:05:30.206
- He has no answer for it and you're wielding it
- 00:05:30.206 --> 00:05:33.309
- Through praying in the spirit, hallelujah.
- 00:05:33.309 --> 00:05:37.013
- And notice that the mountain that's in front of you, whatever
- 00:05:37.013 --> 00:05:39.382
- The mountain is, according to isaiah 41, when god gives you
- 00:05:39.382 --> 00:05:42.084
- This new threshing sledge, you will thresh the mountains and
- 00:05:42.084 --> 00:05:45.021
- Pulverize them.
- 00:05:45.021 --> 00:05:46.389
- One thing about this threshing, it takes time to pulverize
- 00:05:46.389 --> 00:05:49.158
- The mountain.
- 00:05:49.158 --> 00:05:50.493
- You go round and round the mountain like the grain,
- 00:05:50.493 --> 00:05:52.762
- Harvested grain.
- 00:05:52.762 --> 00:05:54.130
- You go round and round and you thresh the grain under you.
- 00:05:54.130 --> 00:05:57.033
- You're praying--the more you go around, the more you are praying
- 00:05:57.033 --> 00:05:59.335
- In the spirit, the more you are threshing the mountain.
- 00:05:59.335 --> 00:06:01.437
- It's not mark 11:23 where you speak once and it happens.
- 00:06:01.437 --> 00:06:05.575
- It is threshing it bit by bit, portion by portion, until you
- 00:06:05.575 --> 00:06:12.982
- Make the hills like chaff, from mountain become hills
- 00:06:12.982 --> 00:06:16.552
- And become chaff.
- 00:06:16.552 --> 00:06:17.920
- You know chaff?
- 00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:19.255
- Where the threshing sledge separates the grain, the edible
- 00:06:19.255 --> 00:06:20.890
- Part of the grain, right?
- 00:06:20.890 --> 00:06:24.327
- The part where you eat, amen.
- 00:06:24.327 --> 00:06:25.895
- And from the shell, the husk, the chaff, amen.
- 00:06:25.895 --> 00:06:29.899
- And the chaff.
- 00:06:29.899 --> 00:06:31.267
- The next stage is this:
- 00:06:31.267 --> 00:06:32.635
- "you will winnow them, and the wind
- 00:06:32.635 --> 00:06:34.237
- Will carry them away, and the storm will scatter them."
- 00:06:34.237 --> 00:06:37.406
- What is winnowing?
- 00:06:37.406 --> 00:06:38.741
- If you look at this man here, after the grain is separated
- 00:06:38.741 --> 00:06:43.579
- From the chaff, this is what he does.
- 00:06:43.579 --> 00:06:45.214
- He takes the winnowing fork.
- 00:06:45.214 --> 00:06:46.549
- Can you see, like, it's like a huge fork, right?
- 00:06:46.549 --> 00:06:50.453
- Usually made of wood.
- 00:06:50.453 --> 00:06:51.787
- And what he does is that after the threshing,
- 00:06:51.787 --> 00:06:54.790
- Comes the winnowing.
- 00:06:54.790 --> 00:06:56.158
- It's not the other way around.
- 00:06:56.158 --> 00:06:57.493
- It's always after the threshing.
- 00:06:57.493 --> 00:06:58.861
- Then he will winnow it.
- 00:06:58.861 --> 00:07:00.196
- He will take the--because what has happened is that the grain
- 00:07:00.196 --> 00:07:03.833
- Has been separated from the chaff, but it's
- 00:07:03.833 --> 00:07:07.570
- Still together on the ground.
- 00:07:07.570 --> 00:07:08.971
- So what it does, usually a threshing floor will take place
- 00:07:08.971 --> 00:07:11.274
- On a high mountain, on a high hill where the wind can be felt,
- 00:07:11.274 --> 00:07:16.379
- Amen, in its power.
- 00:07:16.379 --> 00:07:18.581
- Praise the lord.
- 00:07:18.581 --> 00:07:19.949
- So usually in a high place, just like ornan's threshing floor
- 00:07:19.949 --> 00:07:22.852
- Where david saw the angel.
- 00:07:22.852 --> 00:07:24.220
- Remember that?
- 00:07:24.220 --> 00:07:25.555
- It was on mount moriah.
- 00:07:25.555 --> 00:07:26.889
- Originally, the temple where the temple of solomon was,
- 00:07:26.889 --> 00:07:29.692
- Was the threshing floor of ornan, the jebusite.
- 00:07:29.692 --> 00:07:33.829
- He had a threshing floor.
- 00:07:33.829 --> 00:07:35.164
- So threshing floors are in a high place to take advantage
- 00:07:35.164 --> 00:07:36.966
- Of the wind.
- 00:07:36.966 --> 00:07:38.301
- So what they do is that they take the winnowing fork and they
- 00:07:38.301 --> 00:07:40.202
- Will dig into the pile that has been crushed, right,
- 00:07:40.202 --> 00:07:43.806
- Rather, separated from the grain.
- 00:07:43.806 --> 00:07:45.975
- But there's a lot of chaff down there.
- 00:07:45.975 --> 00:07:48.377
- How can you get rid of chaff?
- 00:07:48.377 --> 00:07:50.446
- It will be very tedious to pick them one by one.
- 00:07:50.446 --> 00:07:52.682
- So what they do is they take the winnowing fork and the wind
- 00:07:52.682 --> 00:07:54.917
- Is blowing.
- 00:07:54.917 --> 00:07:56.285
- They make sure they're not in the direction of the wind
- 00:07:56.285 --> 00:07:57.787
- Or the chaff will go into your eye.
- 00:07:57.787 --> 00:07:59.121
- They will go with the wind, flow with the wind, my friend.
- 00:07:59.121 --> 00:08:01.857
- And they will toss it up in the air and then the wind
- 00:08:01.857 --> 00:08:05.561
- Will blow the chaff away.
- 00:08:05.561 --> 00:08:06.929
- You know why?
- 00:08:06.929 --> 00:08:08.264
- Grain is heavier than the chaff.
- 00:08:08.264 --> 00:08:11.100
- The bible says in psalms 1: "the ungodly are not so."
- 00:08:11.100 --> 00:08:13.069
- Verse 3, we are like the tree planted by the--whatever we do
- 00:08:13.069 --> 00:08:16.138
- Prosper, the last line.
- 00:08:16.138 --> 00:08:17.506
- But look at the next verse.
- 00:08:17.506 --> 00:08:18.975
- "the ungodly are not so, but are like the chaff which the wind
- 00:08:18.975 --> 00:08:22.912
- Drives away."
- 00:08:22.912 --> 00:08:24.981
- So what the guy does is he toss it in the air, amen.
- 00:08:24.981 --> 00:08:27.917
- He toss it in the air and then the wind will blow
- 00:08:27.917 --> 00:08:30.720
- Away the chaff.
- 00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:32.054
- The chaff is light, but the grain will come back down again.
- 00:08:32.054 --> 00:08:34.390
- So the more they do that, the more the ground is filled
- 00:08:34.390 --> 00:08:38.327
- With grain, hallelujah, hallelujah.
- 00:08:38.327 --> 00:08:40.796
- So you know what you do with your mountain
- 00:08:40.796 --> 00:08:42.765
- When you're praying in the spirit?
- 00:08:42.765 --> 00:08:44.100
- First of all, you're threshing it bit by bit, bit by bit,
- 00:08:44.100 --> 00:08:48.838
- As time pass, amen?
- 00:08:48.838 --> 00:08:50.473
- You are going in a galil, galilee, amen?
- 00:08:50.473 --> 00:08:53.275
- In a circuit.
- 00:08:53.275 --> 00:08:55.011
- That's what the name "galilee" means.
- 00:08:55.011 --> 00:08:56.379
- You are going in a circuit.
- 00:08:56.379 --> 00:08:57.713
- We do not know what's the future, but we are going
- 00:08:57.713 --> 00:08:59.715
- One step at a time.
- 00:08:59.715 --> 00:09:01.083
- So we are praying in the spirit in a circuit, amen.
- 00:09:01.083 --> 00:09:04.320
- You say, "pastor prince, what makes you say that this new
- 00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:07.456
- Threshing sledge is praying in the spirit?"
- 00:09:07.456 --> 00:09:10.159
- Well, let's go back to isaiah 41.
- 00:09:10.159 --> 00:09:11.994
- It says "double mouth," right?
- 00:09:11.994 --> 00:09:15.097
- Double mouth.
- 00:09:15.097 --> 00:09:16.465
- And if you look at psalms 149, it tells you very clearly:
- 00:09:16.465 --> 00:09:19.869
- "let the high praises of god be in their mouth, and a two-edged
- 00:09:19.869 --> 00:09:22.972
- Sword in their hand."
- 00:09:22.972 --> 00:09:24.340
- It's part of a weapon.
- 00:09:24.340 --> 00:09:25.675
- This word, "two-edged sword," is exactly the same word you find
- 00:09:25.675 --> 00:09:28.044
- A double edge, just now in isaiah 41
- 00:09:28.044 --> 00:09:32.181
- Of the new threshing sledge.
- 00:09:32.181 --> 00:09:33.716
- Same hebrew word, double mouth.
- 00:09:33.716 --> 00:09:35.918
- You know, from the old testament where it says when the son
- 00:09:35.918 --> 00:09:39.622
- Of the hated--you see, a man has two wives.
- 00:09:39.622 --> 00:09:41.524
- One is a hated wife, one is a loved wife,
- 00:09:41.524 --> 00:09:42.858
- Back in those days.
- 00:09:42.858 --> 00:09:44.360
- But when it comes to inheritance, amen,
- 00:09:44.360 --> 00:09:48.164
- The son of the first wife, even though she is rejected,
- 00:09:48.164 --> 00:09:52.435
- The son must be the one who has a double portion.
- 00:09:52.435 --> 00:09:53.969
- Deuteronomy 21 tells us, look at this part here:
- 00:09:53.969 --> 00:09:57.673
- "he shall acknowledge the son of an unloved wife as the firstborn
- 00:09:57.673 --> 00:10:01.110
- By giving him a double portion of all that he has, for he is
- 00:10:01.110 --> 00:10:05.114
- The beginning of his strength; the right of firstborn is his."
- 00:10:05.114 --> 00:10:07.616
- A double portion of all that he has.
- 00:10:07.616 --> 00:10:09.652
- You know what i found out about this word "double portion,"
- 00:10:09.652 --> 00:10:12.154
- My friend?
- 00:10:12.154 --> 00:10:13.489
- It says, shenayim peh, that means double mouth, hallelujah.
- 00:10:13.489 --> 00:10:17.993
- The word "double portion" is double mouth, hallelujah!
- 00:10:17.993 --> 00:10:21.530
- Did you get that?
- 00:10:21.530 --> 00:10:24.200
- Amen!
- 00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:25.735
- No wonder ehud, that man in the book of judges,
- 00:10:25.735 --> 00:10:28.571
- That man of god,
- 00:10:28.571 --> 00:10:30.539
- Took out a double-edged sword and killed the enemy of israel,
- 00:10:30.539 --> 00:10:35.177
- Eglon, who was a very big man.
- 00:10:35.177 --> 00:10:38.314
- And the bible says the knife went in, accomplished
- 00:10:38.314 --> 00:10:41.951
- Its purpose, hallelujah.
- 00:10:41.951 --> 00:10:43.586
- A double mouth.
- 00:10:43.586 --> 00:10:44.920
- Remember elisha?
- 00:10:44.920 --> 00:10:46.288
- Elijah was about to go back to be with the lord, amen.
- 00:10:46.288 --> 00:10:49.191
- And elisha knew that the time for elijah's departure is coming
- 00:10:49.191 --> 00:10:53.329
- And elijah turned to elisha and says,
- 00:10:53.329 --> 00:10:55.331
- "what do you want from me?"
- 00:10:55.331 --> 00:10:57.666
- And this is what elisha said.
- 00:10:57.666 --> 00:10:59.034
- "'ask! what may i do for you,'
- 00:10:59.034 --> 00:11:00.369
- Elijah asked elisha, 'before i'm taken away from you?'
- 00:11:00.369 --> 00:11:04.006
- Elisha said, 'please let a double,'" what?
- 00:11:04.006 --> 00:11:07.109
- A double what?
- 00:11:07.109 --> 00:11:08.444
- "'portion of your spirit be upon me.'"
- 00:11:08.444 --> 00:11:11.213
- And the word there is double mouth, hallelujah.
- 00:11:11.213 --> 00:11:14.150
- "please let a double mouth of your spirit be upon me," amen.
- 00:11:14.150 --> 00:11:18.754
- "so he said, 'you have asked a hard thing.
- 00:11:18.754 --> 00:11:20.756
- Nevertheless, if you see me when i'm taken from you,
- 00:11:20.756 --> 00:11:23.192
- It shall be so for you;
- 00:11:23.192 --> 00:11:24.527
- But if not, it shall not be so.'"
- 00:11:24.527 --> 00:11:26.529
- Listen, my friend, this is a picture of the tongues that is
- 00:11:26.529 --> 00:11:28.731
- To be released in our day and age.
- 00:11:28.731 --> 00:11:30.599
- It is not that elisha received praying tongues.
- 00:11:30.599 --> 00:11:33.269
- But the idea of the double portion,
- 00:11:33.269 --> 00:11:34.637
- God hid in there.
- 00:11:34.637 --> 00:11:36.672
- Something for us to see that the double portion of all
- 00:11:36.672 --> 00:11:40.342
- That the firstborn will receive the double portion.
- 00:11:40.342 --> 00:11:43.245
- The word "double portion" is double mouth.
- 00:11:43.245 --> 00:11:45.080
- Why does god say that?
- 00:11:45.080 --> 00:11:46.515
- Because god must esteem for us this gift highly.
- 00:11:46.515 --> 00:11:50.352
- Look at this: "for the word of god is living and powerful,
- 00:11:50.352 --> 00:11:52.955
- And sharper than any two-edged sword."
- 00:11:52.955 --> 00:11:55.391
- So the word "distomos," we separate the word "di," is
- 00:11:55.391 --> 00:11:58.994
- The word "double," and "stomos," what did i say just now?
- 00:11:58.994 --> 00:12:02.298
- Is "double mouth," literally, distomos.
- 00:12:02.298 --> 00:12:05.568
- Now, do you know?
- 00:12:05.568 --> 00:12:06.902
- Think about the word "stomos."
- 00:12:06.902 --> 00:12:08.270
- Does it remind you of something?
- 00:12:08.270 --> 00:12:09.605
- Yes, the word "stomos," greek for mouth, is also the word
- 00:12:09.605 --> 00:12:12.541
- "stomos" where we get our english word, the english word
- 00:12:12.541 --> 00:12:15.911
- "stomata" of the plant.
- 00:12:15.911 --> 00:12:17.947
- Now the stomata of the plant is literally the mouth
- 00:12:17.947 --> 00:12:21.350
- Of the plant.
- 00:12:21.350 --> 00:12:22.685
- Where do you find the stomata?
- 00:12:22.685 --> 00:12:24.019
- The stomata is the cell structure on the leaf
- 00:12:24.019 --> 00:12:27.456
- Of the plant.
- 00:12:27.456 --> 00:12:28.824
- Under the microscope, you can actually see the stomata.
- 00:12:28.824 --> 00:12:31.894
- It looks like our lips.
- 00:12:31.894 --> 00:12:33.229
- Literally our mouth, amen.
- 00:12:33.229 --> 00:12:35.664
- So the stoma will open to allow the exchange of carbon dioxide
- 00:12:35.664 --> 00:12:41.337
- And water between plant and the atmosphere.
- 00:12:41.337 --> 00:12:45.908
- And when the stomata is open, there's this exchange
- 00:12:45.908 --> 00:12:48.177
- Taking place.
- 00:12:48.177 --> 00:12:51.013
- Now they were studying on this stoma, the mouth of the plant,
- 00:12:51.013 --> 00:12:55.251
- Literally from the greek word "stomos."
- 00:12:55.251 --> 00:12:57.386
- Distomos.
- 00:12:57.386 --> 00:12:58.721
- Di means two, two mouths.
- 00:12:58.721 --> 00:13:00.556
- They were studying about plants, some plants that they find
- 00:13:00.556 --> 00:13:05.027
- In the wild that grows luscious and green and big.
- 00:13:05.027 --> 00:13:10.399
- The trees are big.
- 00:13:10.399 --> 00:13:12.134
- But when they bring back those seed and plant near their city
- 00:13:12.134 --> 00:13:17.373
- Life and all that, these are experiments been done
- 00:13:17.373 --> 00:13:19.842
- Under controlled environment and all that, they found that
- 00:13:19.842 --> 00:13:22.244
- The plants, the trees, don't grow as large as those trees
- 00:13:22.244 --> 00:13:26.215
- In the jungle or those trees in the wild.
- 00:13:26.215 --> 00:13:28.284
- So all the ingredients are the same.
- 00:13:28.284 --> 00:13:30.019
- They put it under controlled environment.
- 00:13:30.019 --> 00:13:32.488
- They give it all the necessary exchange of gases
- 00:13:32.488 --> 00:13:36.191
- Like carbon dioxide and water and sunlight to make sure
- 00:13:36.191 --> 00:13:40.930
- It's plentiful and all that.
- 00:13:40.930 --> 00:13:42.631
- But they tried everything, you know, the condition.
- 00:13:42.631 --> 00:13:44.533
- Something is missing because when they experiment
- 00:13:44.533 --> 00:13:47.236
- Under a controlled environment, those trees and plants don't
- 00:13:47.236 --> 00:13:50.105
- Grow as lush, as lush, as green, as those in the wild.
- 00:13:50.105 --> 00:13:54.276
- Finally, they found out the missing ingredient.
- 00:13:54.276 --> 00:13:56.912
- You know what was it?
- 00:13:56.912 --> 00:13:59.548
- The sounds of the jungle.
- 00:13:59.548 --> 00:14:02.918
- The sounds of the wild.
- 00:14:02.918 --> 00:14:04.687
- The sounds of the cricket, the animals, and even
- 00:14:04.687 --> 00:14:09.792
- The surrounding winds.
- 00:14:09.792 --> 00:14:12.127
- The special unique sounds that you find in the jungle
- 00:14:12.127 --> 00:14:15.364
- That you don't find in this controlled environment.
- 00:14:15.364 --> 00:14:18.067
- And those sounds they found has an effect in opening up
- 00:14:18.067 --> 00:14:22.871
- The stoma, the mouth of the plants, where the exchange
- 00:14:22.871 --> 00:14:27.910
- Can take place.
- 00:14:27.910 --> 00:14:29.778
- I submit to you, my friend, i believe god is teaching us that
- 00:14:29.778 --> 00:14:33.182
- The sound of praying in tongues,
- 00:14:33.182 --> 00:14:35.150
- The sound of praying in the spirit,
- 00:14:35.150 --> 00:14:36.652
- Will cause our spirit man to be open to all
- 00:14:36.652 --> 00:14:40.356
- That god has for us, to receive the gifts of the spirit,
- 00:14:40.356 --> 00:14:42.691
- To receive the double portion anointing that elisha
- 00:14:42.691 --> 00:14:44.560
- Asked from elijah, amen?
- 00:14:44.560 --> 00:14:47.997
- And notice that that double portion came on him
- 00:14:47.997 --> 00:14:50.432
- When he saw--you know what, let me tell you
- 00:14:50.432 --> 00:14:54.303
- What elijah told him.
- 00:14:54.303 --> 00:14:55.637
- Let's finish off that story, amen?
- 00:14:55.637 --> 00:14:58.073
- "so elijah says, 'you have asked a hard thing.
- 00:14:58.073 --> 00:15:00.909
- Nevertheless, if you see me when i'm taken from you,
- 00:15:00.909 --> 00:15:03.178
- It shall be so for you; but if not,
- 00:15:03.178 --> 00:15:04.747
- It shall not be so.'
- 00:15:04.747 --> 00:15:06.081
- Then it happened, as they continued to talk, there
- 00:15:06.081 --> 00:15:08.250
- Suddenly appeared a chariot of fire with horses, and separated
- 00:15:08.250 --> 00:15:10.753
- The two of them; elijah went up by a whirlwind.
- 00:15:10.753 --> 00:15:13.489
- Elisha saw it and cried, 'my father, my father,
- 00:15:13.489 --> 00:15:15.958
- The chariot of israel and its horsemen!'
- 00:15:15.958 --> 00:15:18.861
- So he saw him no more.
- 00:15:18.861 --> 00:15:20.229
- And he took hold of his own clothes and tore them in two
- 00:15:20.229 --> 00:15:22.698
- Pieces," and he took the mantle of elijah.
- 00:15:22.698 --> 00:15:25.167
- Listen carefully.
- 00:15:25.167 --> 00:15:26.502
- This is a picture of the day of pentecost, amen,
- 00:15:26.502 --> 00:15:30.472
- When you see jesus ascend, amen.
- 00:15:30.472 --> 00:15:31.940
- If you see jesus ascend, if you see the lord ascend,
- 00:15:31.940 --> 00:15:36.779
- What happens?
- 00:15:36.779 --> 00:15:38.113
- The holy spirit comes on you.
- 00:15:38.113 --> 00:15:39.481
- The only reason the holy spirit comes--remember in john 7,
- 00:15:39.481 --> 00:15:41.884
- It says: "the spirit was not yet given at that time because jesus
- 00:15:41.884 --> 00:15:45.421
- Was not yet glorified."
- 00:15:45.421 --> 00:15:48.524
- And in the book of acts, it says that "because the father
- 00:15:48.524 --> 00:15:51.660
- Has glorified jesus, he has shed forth the holy spirit."
- 00:15:51.660 --> 00:15:55.964
- So the reason we receive the holy spirit is because jesus
- 00:15:55.964 --> 00:15:59.034
- Has been glorified, amen.
- 00:15:59.034 --> 00:16:02.438
- So that's what elijah said to elisha: "if you see me go up,
- 00:16:02.438 --> 00:16:06.241
- Unless your eye is on me when i go up, you cannot receive.
- 00:16:06.241 --> 00:16:09.978
- You've asked a hard thing."
- 00:16:09.978 --> 00:16:11.313
- So what happened to us? we see jesus glorified.
- 00:16:11.313 --> 00:16:13.348
- And what happened? we all speak in tongues.
- 00:16:13.348 --> 00:16:16.051
- We all say, "my father, my father."
- 00:16:16.051 --> 00:16:17.719
- Exactly the words that elisha cried out.
- 00:16:17.719 --> 00:16:20.522
- "my father, my father."
- 00:16:20.522 --> 00:16:23.258
- "eli, eli," is what jesus cried at the cross.
- 00:16:23.258 --> 00:16:25.694
- Eli is my god, my god.
- 00:16:25.694 --> 00:16:27.062
- So that you and i can say, "avi, avi,"
- 00:16:27.062 --> 00:16:28.864
- My father, my father.
- 00:16:28.864 --> 00:16:31.366
- And the bible says you can only cry "my father"
- 00:16:31.366 --> 00:16:34.136
- Because the spirit of his son is in you.
- 00:16:34.136 --> 00:16:36.772
- Wherefore we cry, "abba father."
- 00:16:36.772 --> 00:16:38.941
- Why? because of the spirit.
- 00:16:38.941 --> 00:16:40.976
- He has shed forth the spirit of his son in you, whereby we
- 00:16:40.976 --> 00:16:44.079
- Cry, "abba," father, "abba."
- 00:16:44.079 --> 00:16:46.181
- Avi is "my father," hallelujah, hallelujah.
- 00:16:46.181 --> 00:16:51.320
- Friend, that's your double portion,
- 00:16:51.320 --> 00:16:53.489
- Firstborn inheritance.
- 00:16:53.489 --> 00:16:55.624
- Don't neglect it.
- 00:16:55.624 --> 00:16:58.260
- It is a gift of grace.
- 00:16:58.260 --> 00:17:00.729
- It is a gift, i would say, that lights up all the other gifts.
- 00:17:00.729 --> 00:17:03.832
- Like the menorah, you know the nine--the hanukkah menorah,
- 00:17:03.832 --> 00:17:08.370
- Is a nine-branch candelabra.
- 00:17:08.370 --> 00:17:10.639
- You know what they do?
- 00:17:10.639 --> 00:17:11.974
- They take the center candle, amen, and then they light up
- 00:17:11.974 --> 00:17:16.378
- The rest.
- 00:17:16.378 --> 00:17:17.746
- They use the center candle.
- 00:17:17.746 --> 00:17:19.081
- The bible says the gifts of the spirit manifest
- 00:17:19.081 --> 00:17:21.717
- As the spirit wills.
- 00:17:21.717 --> 00:17:23.619
- But you know something?
- 00:17:23.619 --> 00:17:24.953
- There's only one gift that you can operate as you will.
- 00:17:24.953 --> 00:17:27.456
- You can pray in tongues anytime.
- 00:17:27.456 --> 00:17:29.291
- So it's like you take the middle candle, which is praying
- 00:17:29.291 --> 00:17:32.161
- To the spirit, and you light up the word of wisdom.
- 00:17:32.161 --> 00:17:34.763
- You light up the word of knowledge.
- 00:17:34.763 --> 00:17:36.665
- You light up all the nine gifts of the spirit.
- 00:17:36.665 --> 00:17:43.539
- Hallelujah.
- 00:17:43.539 --> 00:17:45.541
- Praise the name of jesus.
- 00:17:45.541 --> 00:17:47.943
- Friend, this is your inheritance.
- 00:17:47.943 --> 00:17:49.878
- I'll close with this.
- 00:17:49.878 --> 00:17:51.246
- What was the law under the old is now the spirit in the new.
- 00:17:51.246 --> 00:17:57.119
- When god gave the law, what feast was that?
- 00:17:57.119 --> 00:18:00.022
- Feast of pentecost.
- 00:18:00.022 --> 00:18:01.390
- The very first feast of pentecost, shavuot,
- 00:18:01.390 --> 00:18:04.359
- The jewish rabbis will tell you that.
- 00:18:04.359 --> 00:18:07.496
- The first pentecost, they celebrate the giving of the law.
- 00:18:07.496 --> 00:18:10.866
- What mountain was it?
- 00:18:10.866 --> 00:18:12.201
- Mount sinai.
- 00:18:12.201 --> 00:18:14.303
- What happened?
- 00:18:14.303 --> 00:18:15.637
- Three thousand people died.
- 00:18:15.637 --> 00:18:17.005
- Then when the day of pentecost, so telling,
- 00:18:17.005 --> 00:18:19.141
- When the day of pentecost was fully in you, what happened?
- 00:18:19.141 --> 00:18:24.012
- God gave the spirit, not the law.
- 00:18:24.012 --> 00:18:26.215
- We celebrate pentecost as the giving of the spirit.
- 00:18:26.215 --> 00:18:30.719
- And what happened?
- 00:18:30.719 --> 00:18:32.054
- Which mountain was it?
- 00:18:32.054 --> 00:18:33.388
- Mount zion, amen.
- 00:18:33.388 --> 00:18:34.756
- The mountain of grace.
- 00:18:34.756 --> 00:18:36.091
- And what happened?
- 00:18:36.091 --> 00:18:37.459
- Three thousand people were saved.
- 00:18:37.459 --> 00:18:39.127
- Over here, 3000 people died;
- 00:18:39.127 --> 00:18:40.662
- Over here, 3000 people were saved.
- 00:18:40.662 --> 00:18:43.365
- So what is the law is now the spirit.
- 00:18:43.365 --> 00:18:45.701
- That changes everything, how we interpret the bible.
- 00:18:45.701 --> 00:18:47.736
- When we look at the old testament
- 00:18:47.736 --> 00:18:49.071
- With new testament eyes,
- 00:18:49.071 --> 00:18:50.939
- We interpret everything through the lens of grace.
- 00:18:50.939 --> 00:18:53.475
- We still study the old testament but where we see verses like
- 00:18:53.475 --> 00:18:56.011
- This, joshua 1:8 where it says, "this book of the law shall not
- 00:18:56.011 --> 00:19:00.282
- Depart from your mouth," shall not depart from where?
- 00:19:00.282 --> 00:19:04.119
- From your mouth.
- 00:19:04.119 --> 00:19:05.554
- Very familiar to isaiah 59.
- 00:19:05.554 --> 00:19:07.956
- Go back to isaiah 59: "my words shall not--which i have put in
- 00:19:07.956 --> 00:19:13.095
- Your mouth, shall not depart from your mouth."
- 00:19:13.095 --> 00:19:15.030
- Same words.
- 00:19:15.030 --> 00:19:16.365
- But what is the law now?
- 00:19:16.365 --> 00:19:17.733
- What was the law then?
- 00:19:17.733 --> 00:19:19.067
- Joshua 1:8, it says: "this book of the law shall not
- 00:19:19.067 --> 00:19:20.669
- Depart from your mouth."
- 00:19:20.669 --> 00:19:23.005
- So we can change it to: "these words--"
- 00:19:23.005 --> 00:19:25.274
- Book means the words.
- 00:19:25.274 --> 00:19:26.775
- "the words of the law shall not depart from your mouth."
- 00:19:26.775 --> 00:19:29.077
- Literally, it says: "you shall meditate."
- 00:19:29.077 --> 00:19:30.912
- The word "meditate" is hagah, which is the word "mutter."
- 00:19:30.912 --> 00:19:33.649
- "mutter in it day and night, that you may observe to do
- 00:19:33.649 --> 00:19:37.252
- According to all that is written in it.
- 00:19:37.252 --> 00:19:38.820
- For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you
- 00:19:38.820 --> 00:19:42.457
- Will have good success."
- 00:19:42.457 --> 00:19:44.793
- So we say, you know, what we do is that it's wrong when we teach
- 00:19:44.793 --> 00:19:47.029
- The verse, today we must keep joshua 1:8,
- 00:19:47.029 --> 00:19:49.598
- "this book of the law shall not depart--"
- 00:19:49.598 --> 00:19:50.932
- You know what they meditate on?
- 00:19:50.932 --> 00:19:52.734
- "and the intestines of the shelamim, of the peace offering,
- 00:19:52.734 --> 00:19:57.139
- You shall lay in accordance with it."
- 00:19:57.139 --> 00:19:58.874
- These are things they meditate on.
- 00:19:58.874 --> 00:20:00.475
- Literally, the book of the law, which means the words
- 00:20:00.475 --> 00:20:03.178
- Of the law, they mutter day and night in order for them
- 00:20:03.178 --> 00:20:07.716
- To prosper in all their ways and have good success.
- 00:20:07.716 --> 00:20:09.318
- But today, we, as new covenant people, we take this verse
- 00:20:09.318 --> 00:20:12.888
- And we say the words of the spirit, as in isaiah 59,
- 00:20:12.888 --> 00:20:17.092
- Shall not depart from our mouth.
- 00:20:17.092 --> 00:20:18.660
- The more we pray in the spirit, we will make our way prosperous
- 00:20:18.660 --> 00:20:21.663
- And we will have good success, hallelujah, amen.
- 00:20:21.663 --> 00:20:30.772
- We don't try to keep the law.
- 00:20:30.772 --> 00:20:34.443
- It brings us under the curse, amen.
- 00:20:34.443 --> 00:20:36.011
- We just pray in the spirit.
- 00:20:36.011 --> 00:20:37.713
- And don't worry about holiness.
- 00:20:37.713 --> 00:20:39.081
- It will be fulfilled in us.
- 00:20:39.081 --> 00:20:40.749
- Don't worry about power.
- 00:20:40.749 --> 00:20:42.117
- It will manifest through us.
- 00:20:42.117 --> 00:20:43.452
- Don't worry about results, amen.
- 00:20:43.452 --> 00:20:45.520
- You will cause the mountains to become like hills and hills
- 00:20:45.520 --> 00:20:48.857
- Like chaff and the wind will drive them away, amen.
- 00:20:48.857 --> 00:20:54.029
- Praise the name of jesus, hallelujah.
- 00:20:54.029 --> 00:20:57.366
- What about psalms 1?
- 00:20:57.366 --> 00:20:58.700
- Let's close with psalms 1, shall we?
- 00:20:58.700 --> 00:21:00.602
- It says what?
- 00:21:00.602 --> 00:21:01.970
- "blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel
- 00:21:01.970 --> 00:21:03.972
- Of the ungodly, nor stands in the way of sinners,
- 00:21:03.972 --> 00:21:06.608
- Nor sits in the seat of the scornful.
- 00:21:06.608 --> 00:21:07.943
- But his delight is," what?
- 00:21:07.943 --> 00:21:09.311
- "in the law of the lord, and in his law," he what?
- 00:21:09.311 --> 00:21:12.681
- Same hebrew word as in joshua 1:8.
- 00:21:12.681 --> 00:21:15.851
- "he meditates," which is hebrew, hagah, mutter.
- 00:21:15.851 --> 00:21:20.188
- "in his law he mutters day and night."
- 00:21:20.188 --> 00:21:21.890
- But today, when we look
- 00:21:21.890 --> 00:21:23.225
- At this verse through the lens of grace,
- 00:21:23.225 --> 00:21:26.695
- We say, in the spirit we pray.
- 00:21:26.695 --> 00:21:31.032
- We pray in the spirit, amen, day and night.
- 00:21:31.032 --> 00:21:34.436
- And what's going to happen to us?
- 00:21:34.436 --> 00:21:35.771
- "we will be like a tree planted by the rivers of water,
- 00:21:35.771 --> 00:21:39.007
- That brings forth its fruit in its season,
- 00:21:39.007 --> 00:21:40.776
- Its leaf also shall not wither."
- 00:21:40.776 --> 00:21:43.145
- That means you will stay forever young.
- 00:21:43.145 --> 00:21:44.913
- "shall not wither" means you'll be evergreen, amen?
- 00:21:44.913 --> 00:21:48.950
- Praise the lord.
- 00:21:48.950 --> 00:21:50.285
- Your stomata is all open, amen, to receive
- 00:21:50.285 --> 00:21:51.953
- And to exchange, hallelujah.
- 00:21:51.953 --> 00:21:54.156
- "and whatever you do," hallelujah, i love this.
- 00:21:54.156 --> 00:21:57.559
- "whatever you do shall prosper."
- 00:21:57.559 --> 00:22:00.896
- You will not be like the person in the next verse where he
- 00:22:00.896 --> 00:22:03.298
- Will be "like the chaff which the wind drives away."
- 00:22:03.298 --> 00:22:05.901
- Go back to verse 3: "whatever he does shall prosper."
- 00:22:05.901 --> 00:22:09.971
- Just by praying in the spirit, amen?
- 00:22:09.971 --> 00:22:12.073
- Praise the lord.
- 00:22:12.073 --> 00:22:13.408
- We'll pray in the spirit.
- 00:22:13.408 --> 00:22:14.776
- And when you pray in the spirit, it transcends the prayer.
- 00:22:14.776 --> 00:22:16.244
- I'm not saying you can't pray in english.
- 00:22:16.244 --> 00:22:17.612
- By all means, but pray in the spirit first and then pray
- 00:22:17.612 --> 00:22:19.347
- With your understanding after.
- 00:22:19.347 --> 00:22:21.783
- Because when you pray in the spirit, like paul says,
- 00:22:21.783 --> 00:22:24.820
- When you speak five words, your five words will be pregnant
- 00:22:24.820 --> 00:22:27.823
- With power, with pungency, amen.
- 00:22:27.823 --> 00:22:31.493
- Your five words will be anointed.
- 00:22:31.493 --> 00:22:33.061
- They'll be spirit and life.
- 00:22:33.061 --> 00:22:34.429
- Your five words in english will be more powerful when you
- 00:22:34.429 --> 00:22:36.565
- Pray thousands of words in tongues before you
- 00:22:36.565 --> 00:22:39.201
- Speak, hallelujah.
- 00:22:39.201 --> 00:22:42.337
- Thank you, lord jesus.
- 00:22:42.337 --> 00:22:44.139
- Amen, amen, amen, amen.
