  • 00:01:16.818 --> 00:01:18.153
  • Joseph prince: of all the pictures of god
  • 00:01:18.153 --> 00:01:21.089
  • In the bible, in the old testament
  • 00:01:21.089 --> 00:01:22.791
  • And new testament, both combined,
  • 00:01:22.791 --> 00:01:24.526
  • God is personified as a rock, a place of refuge.
  • 00:01:24.526 --> 00:01:28.363
  • God is personified as a fire.
  • 00:01:28.363 --> 00:01:31.033
  • God is personified and depicted as a king.
  • 00:01:31.033 --> 00:01:34.336
  • God is de-- of all the pictures of god
  • 00:01:34.336 --> 00:01:36.338
  • In the old and the new, the number one picture,
  • 00:01:36.338 --> 00:01:38.707
  • The most frequently used is shepherd, shepherd,
  • 00:01:38.707 --> 00:01:44.112
  • And the day that you stop feeling like a shepherd,
  • 00:01:44.112 --> 00:01:49.017
  • A good shepherd is watching over you,
  • 00:01:49.017 --> 00:01:51.386
  • A good shepherd is caring for you,
  • 00:01:51.386 --> 00:01:53.655
  • A good shepherd is leading you,
  • 00:01:53.655 --> 00:01:55.757
  • The good shepherd is restoring you,
  • 00:01:55.757 --> 00:01:57.759
  • The good shepherd is causing his mercy and goodness
  • 00:01:57.759 --> 00:02:01.763
  • To hunt you down,
  • 00:02:01.763 --> 00:02:03.131
  • The day you feel like you're all on your own,
  • 00:02:03.131 --> 00:02:06.001
  • You have to fend for your family,
  • 00:02:06.001 --> 00:02:07.736
  • Watch out for your own career, watch out for your back,
  • 00:02:07.736 --> 00:02:11.206
  • Make sure you have no enemy come behind you,
  • 00:02:11.206 --> 00:02:13.175
  • Look around you carefully before you do this,
  • 00:02:13.175 --> 00:02:15.644
  • Before you do that, you are out to take care for yourself,
  • 00:02:15.644 --> 00:02:17.846
  • Nobody's taking care of you, you start to fall sick.
  • 00:02:17.846 --> 00:02:24.119
  • Are you listening?
  • 00:02:24.119 --> 00:02:25.854
  • The revelation of healing and the shepherd--
  • 00:02:25.854 --> 00:02:29.424
  • We were like sheep going astray.
  • 00:02:29.424 --> 00:02:30.759
  • That's why we are sick,
  • 00:02:30.759 --> 00:02:32.160
  • But now we are no more sheep going astray.
  • 00:02:32.160 --> 00:02:34.329
  • We have now returned.
  • 00:02:34.329 --> 00:02:36.098
  • You have now been returned to the shepherd.
  • 00:02:36.098 --> 00:02:39.034
  • You know who did it? the holy spirit.
  • 00:02:39.034 --> 00:02:41.737
  • You see, when the-- when jesus said
  • 00:02:41.737 --> 00:02:43.405
  • The parable of the lost sheep,
  • 00:02:43.405 --> 00:02:45.741
  • A shepherd had 100 sheep, he lost 1.
  • 00:02:45.741 --> 00:02:51.913
  • He will leave the 99-- and no shepherd does that, okay.
  • 00:02:51.913 --> 00:02:54.750
  • Let me tell you this.
  • 00:02:54.750 --> 00:02:56.084
  • No shepherd leaves 99 and look for the 1 that's lost,
  • 00:02:56.084 --> 00:03:01.323
  • Except for one shepherd, the good shepherd.
  • 00:03:01.323 --> 00:03:04.159
  • He leaves the 99 and looks for the 1.
  • 00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:07.396
  • So who looks? the shepherd looks.
  • 00:03:07.396 --> 00:03:09.598
  • So the shepherd lost the sheep.
  • 00:03:09.598 --> 00:03:11.700
  • The shepherd looked for the sheep.
  • 00:03:11.700 --> 00:03:14.136
  • The shepherd found the sheep crying, cold, lonely, hungry.
  • 00:03:14.136 --> 00:03:20.075
  • The shepherd took the sheep.
  • 00:03:20.075 --> 00:03:22.477
  • The shepherd carried the sheep,
  • 00:03:22.477 --> 00:03:25.180
  • So the sheep is resting on his strength.
  • 00:03:25.180 --> 00:03:27.549
  • The shepherd brought the sheep home.
  • 00:03:27.549 --> 00:03:30.786
  • The shepherd said, "celebrate with me."
  • 00:03:30.786 --> 00:03:33.255
  • What did the sheep do?
  • 00:03:33.255 --> 00:03:38.593
  • This is not my story, by the way.
  • 00:03:38.593 --> 00:03:39.961
  • It's a parable from jesus.
  • 00:03:39.961 --> 00:03:41.963
  • The shepherd did everything.
  • 00:03:41.963 --> 00:03:43.598
  • What did we do? we did one thing.
  • 00:03:43.598 --> 00:03:45.934
  • We allowed our--we baaa.
  • 00:03:45.934 --> 00:03:48.937
  • That's prayer.
  • 00:03:48.937 --> 00:03:52.474
  • Another thing we did was that when he carried us
  • 00:03:52.474 --> 00:03:55.811
  • And put us on his shoulders, we allowed ourself to rest.
  • 00:03:55.811 --> 00:04:00.782
  • Plung! that's what we did.
  • 00:04:00.782 --> 00:04:03.952
  • You see, salvation is nothing more
  • 00:04:03.952 --> 00:04:05.454
  • Than consent to be saved.
  • 00:04:05.454 --> 00:04:07.789
  • It's consenting to be saved, consenting to be loved, amen.
  • 00:04:07.789 --> 00:04:14.363
  • God never meant for you to be your own man.
  • 00:04:14.363 --> 00:04:17.199
  • God meant for you to be loved,
  • 00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:18.867
  • To be taken care of like a sheep,
  • 00:04:18.867 --> 00:04:21.336
  • And he's the good shepherd.
  • 00:04:21.336 --> 00:04:24.272
  • Good sheep, well-fed sheep, make good shepherds.
  • 00:04:24.272 --> 00:04:29.511
  • David, before he became king-- david who killed goliath,
  • 00:04:29.511 --> 00:04:32.447
  • The giant--before he became--
  • 00:04:32.447 --> 00:04:34.149
  • Some talking about "that's not macho.
  • 00:04:34.149 --> 00:04:36.084
  • I'm a macho man."
  • 00:04:36.084 --> 00:04:37.419
  • A real man is a man who leans hard like david.
  • 00:04:37.419 --> 00:04:39.588
  • David knocked down the giant goliath.
  • 00:04:39.588 --> 00:04:41.490
  • You know why? because he depended on the lord.
  • 00:04:41.490 --> 00:04:44.893
  • When the lord is in your life,
  • 00:04:44.893 --> 00:04:46.261
  • If you're a woman, your femininity is maximized.
  • 00:04:46.261 --> 00:04:49.831
  • If you're a man, your masculinity is maximized.
  • 00:04:49.831 --> 00:04:52.467
  • He doesn't make you less of a man.
  • 00:04:52.467 --> 00:04:53.802
  • He makes you a real man.
  • 00:04:53.802 --> 00:04:55.404
  • So don't have this idea "i'm a man, you know?
  • 00:04:55.404 --> 00:04:58.073
  • I provide for myself and all that."
  • 00:04:58.073 --> 00:04:59.408
  • No, no, you'll break down, you're stressed out,
  • 00:04:59.408 --> 00:05:01.243
  • You'll grow old faster and die younger.
  • 00:05:01.243 --> 00:05:03.378
  • Don't live life like that.
  • 00:05:03.378 --> 00:05:04.713
  • You're meant to live loved.
  • 00:05:04.713 --> 00:05:08.483
  • Live life loved, loved by him.
  • 00:05:08.483 --> 00:05:12.521
  • Do your work loved.
  • 00:05:12.521 --> 00:05:14.823
  • Rest loved.
  • 00:05:14.823 --> 00:05:16.725
  • When you plan, plan knowing you are loved
  • 00:05:16.725 --> 00:05:19.795
  • By a good shepherd.
  • 00:05:19.795 --> 00:05:21.129
  • Can i have a good amen?
  • 00:05:21.129 --> 00:05:22.464
  • All right, so the lord says that he's the one
  • 00:05:22.464 --> 00:05:27.068
  • That brings us back.
  • 00:05:27.068 --> 00:05:28.603
  • We allow ourselves to be loved by him,
  • 00:05:28.603 --> 00:05:30.939
  • And i said just now that good shepherds
  • 00:05:30.939 --> 00:05:33.942
  • Are good sheep.
  • 00:05:33.942 --> 00:05:36.478
  • They allow themselves to be shepherded.
  • 00:05:36.478 --> 00:05:38.180
  • David is a good example.
  • 00:05:38.180 --> 00:05:39.514
  • He knocked down goliath, became the greatest king
  • 00:05:39.514 --> 00:05:41.917
  • That ever lived, but why did god make him king?
  • 00:05:41.917 --> 00:05:45.654
  • God says, "i saw you taking care of the sheep."
  • 00:05:45.654 --> 00:05:50.225
  • Why was he a good shepherd?
  • 00:05:50.225 --> 00:05:51.860
  • And "i took you from following the sheep
  • 00:05:51.860 --> 00:05:53.195
  • To shepherd my people, israel," god said to david.
  • 00:05:53.195 --> 00:05:56.398
  • David was a shepherd taking care of a real sheep,
  • 00:05:56.398 --> 00:05:58.700
  • But also he wrote psalms 23: "the lord is my shepherd."
  • 00:05:58.700 --> 00:06:03.038
  • So david saw himself as a sheep.
  • 00:06:03.038 --> 00:06:05.106
  • Next thing, "i shall not lack,"
  • 00:06:05.106 --> 00:06:08.243
  • "lo echsar" in hebrew.
  • 00:06:08.243 --> 00:06:10.212
  • No lack, no lack for peace, no lack for finances,
  • 00:06:10.212 --> 00:06:15.584
  • No lack for health, no lack for favor,
  • 00:06:15.584 --> 00:06:19.154
  • No lack in my life because the lord is my shepherd.
  • 00:06:19.154 --> 00:06:24.092
  • The lord is my shepherd, amen?
  • 00:06:24.092 --> 00:06:26.962
  • Then he says, "he makes me lie down."
  • 00:06:26.962 --> 00:06:28.597
  • Who makes him lie down? he himself?
  • 00:06:28.597 --> 00:06:29.998
  • No, him, god, the lord, the good shepherd
  • 00:06:29.998 --> 00:06:31.700
  • Makes him lie down, "in green pastures.
  • 00:06:31.700 --> 00:06:34.402
  • He leads me," not i lead myself.
  • 00:06:34.402 --> 00:06:37.506
  • "he leads me beside the still waters.
  • 00:06:37.506 --> 00:06:39.674
  • He restores my soul."
  • 00:06:39.674 --> 00:06:42.744
  • "he restores my soul."
  • 00:06:42.744 --> 00:06:45.514
  • Are you listening, people?
  • 00:06:45.514 --> 00:06:49.484
  • The world is such that the world says
  • 00:06:49.484 --> 00:06:50.819
  • You better lead yourself.
  • 00:06:50.819 --> 00:06:52.153
  • You better look out or else your competitor will come in
  • 00:06:52.153 --> 00:06:53.989
  • In front of you, you know.
  • 00:06:53.989 --> 00:06:55.323
  • You better drive faster or they cut you.
  • 00:06:55.323 --> 00:06:58.994
  • The world's like that.
  • 00:06:58.994 --> 00:07:00.328
  • You better learn as much as you can.
  • 00:07:00.328 --> 00:07:01.796
  • There are a lot of marketing people out there.
  • 00:07:01.796 --> 00:07:05.333
  • You see, you're afraid. "if i don't capitalize on it..."
  • 00:07:05.333 --> 00:07:08.003
  • You know, you're afraid that you're left out,
  • 00:07:08.003 --> 00:07:09.337
  • The feeling of fear of being left out,
  • 00:07:09.337 --> 00:07:11.106
  • But what if i tell you you have a good shepherd,
  • 00:07:11.106 --> 00:07:12.841
  • Taller than you, see further than you,
  • 00:07:12.841 --> 00:07:15.477
  • Who cannot make any mistake, who loves you perfectly?
  • 00:07:15.477 --> 00:07:18.079
  • He'll take care of the long haul.
  • 00:07:18.079 --> 00:07:20.982
  • How about that? how about living life loved?
  • 00:07:20.982 --> 00:07:23.218
  • We have a good shepherd.
  • 00:07:23.218 --> 00:07:25.387
  • I think we have a good shepherd.
  • 00:07:25.387 --> 00:07:27.589
  • Are you listening? so david knew this truth.
  • 00:07:27.589 --> 00:07:30.458
  • Psalms 23, "the lord is my shepherd,
  • 00:07:30.458 --> 00:07:32.227
  • I shall not lack.
  • 00:07:32.227 --> 00:07:33.562
  • He makes me lie down in green pastures.
  • 00:07:33.562 --> 00:07:36.064
  • He leads me beside the still waters.
  • 00:07:36.064 --> 00:07:38.366
  • He restores my soul.
  • 00:07:38.366 --> 00:07:40.435
  • He leads me in the path of righteousness
  • 00:07:40.435 --> 00:07:42.270
  • For his name's sake.
  • 00:07:42.270 --> 00:07:44.005
  • Ye, though i walk through the valley
  • 00:07:44.005 --> 00:07:45.340
  • Of the shadow of death, i'll fear no evil,
  • 00:07:45.340 --> 00:07:47.842
  • For thou art with me.
  • 00:07:47.842 --> 00:07:49.511
  • Thy rod and thy staff"-- all these are
  • 00:07:49.511 --> 00:07:51.012
  • Pictures of the shepherd and the sheep--"they comfort me.
  • 00:07:51.012 --> 00:07:54.382
  • Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of my enemies.
  • 00:07:54.382 --> 00:07:57.085
  • You anoint my head with oil. my cup runs over.
  • 00:07:57.085 --> 00:07:59.621
  • Surely goodness and mercy will follow me."
  • 00:07:59.621 --> 00:08:01.523
  • He saw himself as a sheep, watched over, being led,
  • 00:08:01.523 --> 00:08:05.060
  • Being taken care of, goodness and mercy for--
  • 00:08:05.060 --> 00:08:08.797
  • Hunting him down, and he became a great shepherd.
  • 00:08:08.797 --> 00:08:15.470
  • Jesus's last words to peter, one of the last words
  • 00:08:15.470 --> 00:08:19.341
  • Before he ascended was this: "feed my lambs,
  • 00:08:19.341 --> 00:08:22.811
  • Tend my sheep, feed my sheep," amen.
  • 00:08:22.811 --> 00:08:28.450
  • All we like sheep have gone astray
  • 00:08:28.450 --> 00:08:29.784
  • In the context of "by his stripes
  • 00:08:29.784 --> 00:08:31.753
  • We are healed," but now you're returned
  • 00:08:31.753 --> 00:08:34.222
  • To the shepherd of your soul.
  • 00:08:34.222 --> 00:08:37.158
  • Live healed, amen.
  • 00:08:37.158 --> 00:08:40.362
  • Remember i told you the thief comes to steal,
  • 00:08:40.362 --> 00:08:41.730
  • Kill, destroy?
  • 00:08:41.730 --> 00:08:43.064
  • What context is it?
  • 00:08:43.064 --> 00:08:44.399
  • Look, "i am the good shepherd."
  • 00:08:44.399 --> 00:08:47.502
  • "i am the good shepherd."
  • 00:08:47.502 --> 00:08:48.837
  • In other words, for the lack of this shepherd
  • 00:08:48.837 --> 00:08:52.474
  • Teaching the thief can come and steal and kill and destroy.
  • 00:08:52.474 --> 00:08:58.513
  • Look at the verse before this.
  • 00:08:58.513 --> 00:09:00.882
  • Jesus says, "most assuredly, i say to you,
  • 00:09:00.882 --> 00:09:02.851
  • I'm the door of the sheep.
  • 00:09:02.851 --> 00:09:04.285
  • All who ever came before me are thieves and robbers,
  • 00:09:04.285 --> 00:09:06.888
  • But the sheep did not hear them."
  • 00:09:06.888 --> 00:09:09.958
  • Thieves and robbers.
  • 00:09:09.958 --> 00:09:11.359
  • You know the pharisees? these are religious teachers.
  • 00:09:11.359 --> 00:09:13.495
  • He didn't say that the brothel owners
  • 00:09:13.495 --> 00:09:15.063
  • Are thieves and robbers.
  • 00:09:15.063 --> 00:09:16.398
  • He didn't say that the tax collectors
  • 00:09:16.398 --> 00:09:18.166
  • Are robbers.
  • 00:09:18.166 --> 00:09:20.035
  • All that ever came before me, in the context of the sheep,
  • 00:09:20.035 --> 00:09:22.704
  • Leading, in terms of leadership,
  • 00:09:22.704 --> 00:09:24.606
  • Were the pharisees having a "holier than thou" attitude.
  • 00:09:24.606 --> 00:09:27.442
  • He called them thieves and robbers.
  • 00:09:27.442 --> 00:09:29.477
  • I'll tell you this, the greatest way the devil
  • 00:09:29.477 --> 00:09:32.013
  • Masquerades himself as a-- is as a preacher,
  • 00:09:32.013 --> 00:09:35.083
  • As a religious teacher, and telling you
  • 00:09:35.083 --> 00:09:38.653
  • That god wants you sick, god wants you, you know,
  • 00:09:38.653 --> 00:09:42.624
  • Broke, god wants you, you know, suffering.
  • 00:09:42.624 --> 00:09:46.261
  • No, there's suffering for christians,
  • 00:09:46.261 --> 00:09:47.696
  • But they suffer for their belief.
  • 00:09:47.696 --> 00:09:49.864
  • That's called persecution.
  • 00:09:49.864 --> 00:09:51.332
  • That's the only suffering you suffer,
  • 00:09:51.332 --> 00:09:53.601
  • For standing for your belief,
  • 00:09:53.601 --> 00:09:57.906
  • But besides, that you're not to suffer disease, sickness.
  • 00:09:57.906 --> 00:10:01.543
  • He doesn't want you to, and you have pain
  • 00:10:01.543 --> 00:10:03.845
  • In your body, don't be ashamed,
  • 00:10:03.845 --> 00:10:05.413
  • But reach out and claim your healing.
  • 00:10:05.413 --> 00:10:07.449
  • So these thieves, they teach with religious teaching.
  • 00:10:07.449 --> 00:10:10.218
  • That's how they rob.
  • 00:10:10.218 --> 00:10:11.553
  • The context tells you it's religious teaching.
  • 00:10:11.553 --> 00:10:13.488
  • Jesus says, "when i come and you listen to my teaching,"
  • 00:10:13.488 --> 00:10:16.357
  • All right, "i will give you life more abundant,
  • 00:10:16.357 --> 00:10:20.495
  • But the thief."
  • 00:10:20.495 --> 00:10:21.830
  • Here it is thieves and robbers, plural, all right.
  • 00:10:21.830 --> 00:10:24.365
  • Go down to verse 10.
  • 00:10:24.365 --> 00:10:25.700
  • Here it's personified, "the thief does not come except--"
  • 00:10:25.700 --> 00:10:27.869
  • So it's the same context, religious teachers.
  • 00:10:27.869 --> 00:10:30.138
  • I'm gonna read to you a testimony
  • 00:10:30.138 --> 00:10:31.873
  • Of a lady in australia,
  • 00:10:31.873 --> 00:10:35.944
  • And maybe your child is suffering from this,
  • 00:10:35.944 --> 00:10:38.847
  • Going to be encourage,
  • 00:10:38.847 --> 00:10:40.215
  • Even though you're battling symptoms
  • 00:10:40.215 --> 00:10:41.649
  • In your body or in your loved one's body.
  • 00:10:41.649 --> 00:10:43.952
  • Listen, these are the truths will set you free.
  • 00:10:43.952 --> 00:10:46.888
  • This lady is called ruth in australia, and she says,
  • 00:10:46.888 --> 00:10:49.891
  • "i grew up having asthma.
  • 00:10:49.891 --> 00:10:52.794
  • As a result, i was sidelined from intense sports.
  • 00:10:52.794 --> 00:10:56.297
  • I was fearful whenever i suffered an asthma attack,
  • 00:10:56.297 --> 00:10:59.100
  • As i had heard stories of how people had died
  • 00:10:59.100 --> 00:11:01.136
  • From asthma attacks.
  • 00:11:01.136 --> 00:11:02.470
  • In my teenage years, the doctors told my mother
  • 00:11:02.470 --> 00:11:04.973
  • That if i were to have asthma till the age of 16,
  • 00:11:04.973 --> 00:11:08.042
  • I would have it for the rest of my life.
  • 00:11:08.042 --> 00:11:10.245
  • By the time i was 18, i was still getting
  • 00:11:10.245 --> 00:11:13.014
  • Asthma attacks.
  • 00:11:13.014 --> 00:11:14.849
  • Although i love the lord and have been serving him
  • 00:11:14.849 --> 00:11:16.484
  • Since a young age, i had an ungodly fear towards him."
  • 00:11:16.484 --> 00:11:19.621
  • Notice, there's a godly fear and there's an ungodly fear--
  • 00:11:19.621 --> 00:11:22.824
  • The one that makes you afraid of god.
  • 00:11:22.824 --> 00:11:24.225
  • That's from the devil, that's not from god.
  • 00:11:24.225 --> 00:11:27.729
  • "i thought that perhaps god was punishing me with asthma."
  • 00:11:27.729 --> 00:11:31.032
  • Why did she have this thought?
  • 00:11:31.032 --> 00:11:32.400
  • From religious leaders.
  • 00:11:32.400 --> 00:11:34.068
  • The thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy.
  • 00:11:34.068 --> 00:11:37.739
  • I cannot understand people who try to teach from the bible
  • 00:11:37.739 --> 00:11:41.543
  • Why you should be sick.
  • 00:11:41.543 --> 00:11:44.479
  • That itself is sick.
  • 00:11:44.479 --> 00:11:51.286
  • "but i would still pray and ask god to heal me.
  • 00:11:51.286 --> 00:11:53.354
  • I was very confused.
  • 00:11:53.354 --> 00:11:55.089
  • When i turned 18, i left home to study,
  • 00:11:55.089 --> 00:11:57.992
  • And during my study, i was introduced
  • 00:11:57.992 --> 00:11:59.561
  • To pastor prince's message of grace.
  • 00:11:59.561 --> 00:12:01.996
  • I listened to it for a few months,
  • 00:12:01.996 --> 00:12:03.331
  • And finally it dawned on me that god loves me
  • 00:12:03.331 --> 00:12:05.633
  • Despite my wrong believing, and not only did god love me,
  • 00:12:05.633 --> 00:12:09.404
  • He let his son die for all my sins.
  • 00:12:09.404 --> 00:12:11.506
  • It also dawned on me that daddy god
  • 00:12:11.506 --> 00:12:13.007
  • Did not put asthma on me to punish me,
  • 00:12:13.007 --> 00:12:14.876
  • Because his son, jesus, has already been punished
  • 00:12:14.876 --> 00:12:16.678
  • On the cross for my sake and had taken my asthma away.
  • 00:12:16.678 --> 00:12:19.747
  • With this revelation i prayed and asked god
  • 00:12:19.747 --> 00:12:22.450
  • To heal me of asthma."
  • 00:12:22.450 --> 00:12:24.452
  • She--a lot of people pray that god would take away
  • 00:12:24.452 --> 00:12:25.920
  • The disease, but she prayed because of the revelation.
  • 00:12:25.920 --> 00:12:29.824
  • That's so important, people.
  • 00:12:29.824 --> 00:12:32.827
  • "since that prayer, the enemy tried to instill fear in me
  • 00:12:32.827 --> 00:12:35.997
  • By telling me that god had not healed me.
  • 00:12:35.997 --> 00:12:37.999
  • The enemy will put asthmatic symptoms on me
  • 00:12:37.999 --> 00:12:39.868
  • And would tell me to use the inhaler,
  • 00:12:39.868 --> 00:12:41.736
  • But i kept declaring that by his stripes i am healed.
  • 00:12:41.736 --> 00:12:44.906
  • I do not deny the fact that the asthma was there,
  • 00:12:44.906 --> 00:12:46.975
  • But i denied its right to hurt me."
  • 00:12:46.975 --> 00:12:49.043
  • She's well taught.
  • 00:12:49.043 --> 00:12:50.378
  • "when i turned 22 years old, i found myself completely free
  • 00:12:50.378 --> 00:12:55.717
  • From the symptoms of asthma."
  • 00:12:55.717 --> 00:12:58.820
  • That's four years, right?
  • 00:12:58.820 --> 00:13:01.689
  • "i've--it was a process for me to receive
  • 00:13:01.689 --> 00:13:04.359
  • A complete breakthrough.
  • 00:13:04.359 --> 00:13:05.693
  • Today i'm a qualified fitness instructor in australia.
  • 00:13:05.693 --> 00:13:10.265
  • I am no longer deprived of being physically active
  • 00:13:10.265 --> 00:13:12.533
  • Because of asthma.
  • 00:13:12.533 --> 00:13:13.868
  • In fact, during one of our fitness training sessions,
  • 00:13:13.868 --> 00:13:16.304
  • I got to share my testimony."
  • 00:13:16.304 --> 00:13:18.406
  • All glory and praise to god, amen, amen, amen, hallelujah.
  • 00:13:18.406 --> 00:13:25.647
  • One more testimony, and this is from a pastor.
  • 00:13:25.647 --> 00:13:29.450
  • All right, pastors' lives are being changed, all right.
  • 00:13:29.450 --> 00:13:32.253
  • Not only that, their children.
  • 00:13:32.253 --> 00:13:33.621
  • I had a pastor one time-- not a pastor,
  • 00:13:33.621 --> 00:13:35.623
  • But he's a bible teacher.
  • 00:13:35.623 --> 00:13:36.958
  • He's pretty well known in-- back in his state--and from us.
  • 00:13:36.958 --> 00:13:43.865
  • He came actually and talked to me,
  • 00:13:43.865 --> 00:13:45.533
  • And we talked about the gospel of grace,
  • 00:13:45.533 --> 00:13:47.835
  • And he didn't agree with me on a number of points.
  • 00:13:47.835 --> 00:13:50.438
  • All right, it doesn't matter.
  • 00:13:50.438 --> 00:13:51.773
  • Like, for me, i respect those who come and talk to me, amen,
  • 00:13:51.773 --> 00:13:55.843
  • And--but what happened is that this year,
  • 00:13:55.843 --> 00:13:58.012
  • Just last week, i heard this testimony.
  • 00:13:58.012 --> 00:14:00.381
  • His son left the lord sometime,
  • 00:14:00.381 --> 00:14:06.054
  • And the son is now in his early 20s,
  • 00:14:06.054 --> 00:14:08.256
  • And guess what?
  • 00:14:08.256 --> 00:14:09.590
  • His son found my book, read it, and came back to the lord,
  • 00:14:09.590 --> 00:14:14.562
  • And the father was the one that shared this testimony.
  • 00:14:14.562 --> 00:14:17.165
  • The son is now attending bible school, all right.
  • 00:14:17.165 --> 00:14:20.535
  • So, people, always remember the power is in the message.
  • 00:14:20.535 --> 00:14:25.373
  • For those who would fight against grace, all right,
  • 00:14:25.373 --> 00:14:27.642
  • You should have testimonies of people
  • 00:14:27.642 --> 00:14:29.110
  • Who say things like, "after i discovered
  • 00:14:29.110 --> 00:14:31.412
  • I was freed from this kind of grace,
  • 00:14:31.412 --> 00:14:33.614
  • My life changed."
  • 00:14:33.614 --> 00:14:34.949
  • You should have testimonies like that
  • 00:14:34.949 --> 00:14:38.319
  • Because testimonies after testimonies
  • 00:14:38.319 --> 00:14:40.154
  • Every week that's coming in,
  • 00:14:40.154 --> 00:14:41.489
  • We don't even have time to read them.
  • 00:14:41.489 --> 00:14:43.458
  • Every single week, it's coming in,
  • 00:14:43.458 --> 00:14:44.859
  • And it's not about, "oh, i'm freed from guilt.
  • 00:14:44.859 --> 00:14:46.995
  • I'm freed from condemnation." it's more than that.
  • 00:14:46.995 --> 00:14:48.863
  • "i'm freed from the addiction of pornography.
  • 00:14:48.863 --> 00:14:52.533
  • I am freed from this drug addiction," healing.
  • 00:14:52.533 --> 00:14:59.507
  • Man, i'm telling you, if this is heresy,
  • 00:14:59.507 --> 00:15:01.809
  • It's glorifying jesus and bringing help
  • 00:15:01.809 --> 00:15:04.312
  • To god's people, amen.
  • 00:15:04.312 --> 00:15:07.615
  • This pastor from north carolina, us,
  • 00:15:07.615 --> 00:15:10.451
  • "i'm a pastor in a church in north carolina,
  • 00:15:10.451 --> 00:15:12.453
  • But i work full time outside of ministry.
  • 00:15:12.453 --> 00:15:14.822
  • I also attend a theological seminary online.
  • 00:15:14.822 --> 00:15:17.658
  • I was preaching right living and was trying to live right
  • 00:15:17.658 --> 00:15:20.294
  • And do increasingly more to serve jesus.
  • 00:15:20.294 --> 00:15:22.997
  • Life has been very demanding,
  • 00:15:22.997 --> 00:15:24.332
  • And i felt myself being burned out.
  • 00:15:24.332 --> 00:15:26.334
  • I considered stepping out from ministry for a short while
  • 00:15:26.334 --> 00:15:28.870
  • To finish school.
  • 00:15:28.870 --> 00:15:30.204
  • It was too much for me.
  • 00:15:30.204 --> 00:15:31.539
  • I also had about a 15-year struggle
  • 00:15:31.539 --> 00:15:34.275
  • With addiction to spit tobacco."
  • 00:15:34.275 --> 00:15:36.544
  • 15 years struggle, 15 years, okay?
  • 00:15:36.544 --> 00:15:39.714
  • "i even stood on the pulpit one sunday
  • 00:15:39.714 --> 00:15:41.582
  • And confessed my addiction.
  • 00:15:41.582 --> 00:15:43.451
  • I held up a can of tobacco and said that i,
  • 00:15:43.451 --> 00:15:46.421
  • Like what david did to goliath,
  • 00:15:46.421 --> 00:15:48.189
  • Will cut off its head and feed its carcass
  • 00:15:48.189 --> 00:15:50.358
  • To the birds.
  • 00:15:50.358 --> 00:15:51.692
  • Through tears i put the addiction away,
  • 00:15:51.692 --> 00:15:53.661
  • And many came to the altar that day
  • 00:15:53.661 --> 00:15:55.797
  • To cast off the addictions.
  • 00:15:55.797 --> 00:15:57.365
  • However, i was back at mine within a week
  • 00:15:57.365 --> 00:16:00.701
  • And feeling great condemnation."
  • 00:16:00.701 --> 00:16:03.071
  • So there are pastors who are watching,
  • 00:16:03.071 --> 00:16:04.739
  • They come against grace and all that.
  • 00:16:04.739 --> 00:16:06.074
  • What is your addiction?
  • 00:16:06.074 --> 00:16:07.775
  • Yeah, doctrine aside, what's your addiction?
  • 00:16:07.775 --> 00:16:10.945
  • You know, at the end, people, the proof of the pudding
  • 00:16:10.945 --> 00:16:13.448
  • Is in the eating, all right,
  • 00:16:13.448 --> 00:16:16.117
  • And for some of you, "i'm a free thinker."
  • 00:16:16.117 --> 00:16:18.219
  • Are you really free to think?
  • 00:16:18.219 --> 00:16:20.855
  • If you think of naked women all the time,
  • 00:16:20.855 --> 00:16:22.657
  • You're not free to think.
  • 00:16:22.657 --> 00:16:23.991
  • You are thinking of junk all the time,
  • 00:16:23.991 --> 00:16:25.326
  • You're not free to think, amen.
  • 00:16:25.326 --> 00:16:26.661
  • Don't say you're a free thinker
  • 00:16:26.661 --> 00:16:27.995
  • When you're in bondage.
  • 00:16:27.995 --> 00:16:30.064
  • I'll tell you: when jesus sets you free,
  • 00:16:30.064 --> 00:16:33.267
  • You'll be free indeed.
  • 00:16:33.267 --> 00:16:36.037
  • Don't let people say, "i'm a free thinker."
  • 00:16:36.037 --> 00:16:37.605
  • No, you're not free to think.
  • 00:16:37.605 --> 00:16:39.807
  • Your road that you think is always the same.
  • 00:16:39.807 --> 00:16:43.744
  • You need to be free. i want you to be a free thinker.
  • 00:16:43.744 --> 00:16:46.747
  • God wants you to be a free thinker.
  • 00:16:46.747 --> 00:16:48.416
  • He want you to think free.
  • 00:16:48.416 --> 00:16:51.953
  • That's a different thing, right?
  • 00:16:51.953 --> 00:16:53.554
  • So this pastor, 15-year addiction
  • 00:16:53.554 --> 00:16:55.356
  • To spit tobacco.
  • 00:16:55.356 --> 00:16:56.757
  • So even though he had people come up to the front,
  • 00:16:56.757 --> 00:16:59.093
  • He himself renounced addiction,
  • 00:16:59.093 --> 00:17:00.428
  • Within the week, he was back to it.
  • 00:17:00.428 --> 00:17:03.197
  • "however, i was back in mine within a week
  • 00:17:03.197 --> 00:17:04.765
  • And feeling great condemnation.
  • 00:17:04.765 --> 00:17:06.100
  • I'm positive that many others
  • 00:17:06.100 --> 00:17:07.435
  • Who came forward to the altar that day
  • 00:17:07.435 --> 00:17:09.036
  • Also did not have lasting victory.
  • 00:17:09.036 --> 00:17:11.038
  • I fought and fought, quit and quit,
  • 00:17:11.038 --> 00:17:12.807
  • Over and over again.
  • 00:17:12.807 --> 00:17:14.308
  • I eventually found joseph prince ministries,
  • 00:17:14.308 --> 00:17:16.344
  • And a friend gave me the book "destined to reign."
  • 00:17:16.344 --> 00:17:18.713
  • I was amazed at what i was hearing and reading
  • 00:17:18.713 --> 00:17:21.149
  • Because i had never heard the gospel in this manner.
  • 00:17:21.149 --> 00:17:23.551
  • I knew it was truth, and it began to set me free.
  • 00:17:23.551 --> 00:17:26.254
  • I heard pastor prince preach a sermon
  • 00:17:26.254 --> 00:17:28.089
  • Where he said that the solution
  • 00:17:28.089 --> 00:17:29.423
  • Was to quit trying to win on my own
  • 00:17:29.423 --> 00:17:31.726
  • And to confess to the lord, 'lord, i cannot, but you can.'
  • 00:17:31.726 --> 00:17:35.496
  • This became my motto, and i quit trying
  • 00:17:35.496 --> 00:17:37.532
  • To quit using tobacco.
  • 00:17:37.532 --> 00:17:39.133
  • I no longer felt guilty, and i confessed
  • 00:17:39.133 --> 00:17:41.102
  • That even though this tobacco was not good,
  • 00:17:41.102 --> 00:17:43.104
  • God loves me no less if i'm using it.
  • 00:17:43.104 --> 00:17:45.806
  • I can now testify that i have been tobacco-free
  • 00:17:45.806 --> 00:17:49.610
  • For seven months.
  • 00:17:49.610 --> 00:17:54.282
  • Every time an urge pops up, i say to the lord
  • 00:17:54.282 --> 00:17:57.385
  • That i know what he has for me is much better than tobacco.
  • 00:17:57.385 --> 00:17:59.854
  • Praise god.
  • 00:17:59.854 --> 00:18:01.189
  • This message of unmerited favor has changed my life
  • 00:18:01.189 --> 00:18:04.058
  • And ministry.
  • 00:18:04.058 --> 00:18:05.393
  • I am now preaching and teaching grace
  • 00:18:05.393 --> 00:18:07.728
  • Every time i step onto the pulpit."
  • 00:18:07.728 --> 00:18:09.964
  • Hallelujah, praise the lord.
  • 00:18:09.964 --> 00:18:12.533
  • Okay, let's close with this last set.
  • 00:18:12.533 --> 00:18:14.402
  • Jeremiah 23, look up here.
  • 00:18:14.402 --> 00:18:16.671
  • "i'll gather the--" god is talking.
  • 00:18:16.671 --> 00:18:18.105
  • "i'll gather the remnant of my flock
  • 00:18:18.105 --> 00:18:19.440
  • Out of all countries where i've driven them,
  • 00:18:19.440 --> 00:18:21.309
  • And bring them back to their folds:
  • 00:18:21.309 --> 00:18:23.244
  • And they shall be fruitful and increase."
  • 00:18:23.244 --> 00:18:25.580
  • Notice--"out of all countries."
  • 00:18:25.580 --> 00:18:27.682
  • That's happening in our day and age, people,
  • 00:18:27.682 --> 00:18:29.817
  • God is bringing the jewish people
  • 00:18:29.817 --> 00:18:31.352
  • All over the world.
  • 00:18:31.352 --> 00:18:33.354
  • They're all coming back to israel.
  • 00:18:33.354 --> 00:18:34.956
  • Whatever the reason is, god is fulfilling bible prophecy.
  • 00:18:34.956 --> 00:18:37.425
  • God's bringing them back to their land.
  • 00:18:37.425 --> 00:18:41.195
  • This cannot happen in jeremiah's day.
  • 00:18:41.195 --> 00:18:43.264
  • They came back from one place only, babylon.
  • 00:18:43.264 --> 00:18:46.000
  • Here's the prophecy of our day: "out of all countries."
  • 00:18:46.000 --> 00:18:50.905
  • The jews are returning.
  • 00:18:50.905 --> 00:18:52.573
  • Then god says, "i will set up," what?
  • 00:18:52.573 --> 00:18:55.343
  • "shepherds, shepherds over them."
  • 00:18:55.343 --> 00:18:58.813
  • So this revelation of shepherd and sheep
  • 00:18:58.813 --> 00:19:00.248
  • Is gonna become strong in these last days,
  • 00:19:00.248 --> 00:19:02.883
  • And that's why sickness and all that, all right,
  • 00:19:02.883 --> 00:19:04.885
  • Will become a decreasing factor among god's people,
  • 00:19:04.885 --> 00:19:07.021
  • Because this shepherd revelation.
  • 00:19:07.021 --> 00:19:08.356
  • "i'll set up shepherds over them who will feed them."
  • 00:19:08.356 --> 00:19:11.792
  • Feed them, not beat them.
  • 00:19:11.792 --> 00:19:13.628
  • Feed them.
  • 00:19:13.628 --> 00:19:15.529
  • I said feed them.
  • 00:19:15.529 --> 00:19:17.198
  • Three things will happen to people who sit
  • 00:19:17.198 --> 00:19:18.866
  • Under shepherding that's from god in these last days.
  • 00:19:18.866 --> 00:19:22.236
  • They will "fear no more," number one;
  • 00:19:22.236 --> 00:19:25.139
  • Number two, "nor be dismayed," no more discouraged;
  • 00:19:25.139 --> 00:19:28.643
  • Number three, "nor shall they be lacking."
  • 00:19:28.643 --> 00:19:31.178
  • "the lord is my shepherd, i shall not lack."
  • 00:19:31.178 --> 00:19:33.681
  • Three things, no more fear, no more discouragement,
  • 00:19:33.681 --> 00:19:36.450
  • No more lack,
  • 00:19:36.450 --> 00:19:38.719
  • Whether it's lack for health, lack of supply.
  • 00:19:38.719 --> 00:19:42.189
  • "no more lack," says the lord.
  • 00:19:42.189 --> 00:19:43.891
  • So we see that the shepherd is feeding them.
  • 00:19:43.891 --> 00:19:47.061
  • What is he feeding them?
  • 00:19:47.061 --> 00:19:49.196
  • When will this happen? next verse.
  • 00:19:49.196 --> 00:19:51.732
  • "'behold, the days are coming,' says the lord,
  • 00:19:51.732 --> 00:19:53.401
  • 'i'll raise to david a branch of righteousness;
  • 00:19:53.401 --> 00:19:55.436
  • A king shall reign'"--
  • 00:19:55.436 --> 00:19:56.771
  • This talking about jesus christ our lord--
  • 00:19:56.771 --> 00:19:58.372
  • "'and prosper, and execute judgment
  • 00:19:58.372 --> 00:19:59.707
  • And righteousness in the earth.'"
  • 00:19:59.707 --> 00:20:01.042
  • Next verse.
  • 00:20:01.042 --> 00:20:02.376
  • "'in his days judah will be safe,
  • 00:20:02.376 --> 00:20:03.711
  • Israel will dwell safely;
  • 00:20:03.711 --> 00:20:05.079
  • Now this is his name by which he will be called:
  • 00:20:05.079 --> 00:20:07.181
  • The lord our righteousness.'"
  • 00:20:07.181 --> 00:20:10.284
  • The lord what?
  • 00:20:10.284 --> 00:20:11.986
  • Hey, you are not your own righteousness.
  • 00:20:11.986 --> 00:20:15.756
  • You don't have to supply your own righteousness.
  • 00:20:15.756 --> 00:20:17.892
  • You don't have to do your own.
  • 00:20:17.892 --> 00:20:19.327
  • The lord is your righteousness.
  • 00:20:19.327 --> 00:20:21.329
  • You are still you, i am still i,
  • 00:20:21.329 --> 00:20:22.997
  • But the lord is my righteousness,
  • 00:20:22.997 --> 00:20:24.699
  • Which means that when jesus is my righteousness,
  • 00:20:24.699 --> 00:20:26.334
  • God looks at me as if i have a plus
  • 00:20:26.334 --> 00:20:29.103
  • For law keeping, hm?
  • 00:20:29.103 --> 00:20:33.341
  • So the shepherds--the context tells us the shepherd
  • 00:20:33.341 --> 00:20:37.011
  • Is feeding them grace.
  • 00:20:37.011 --> 00:20:38.412
  • He's feeding them the revelation of his righteousness,
  • 00:20:38.412 --> 00:20:41.282
  • Not their righteousness.
  • 00:20:41.282 --> 00:20:44.218
  • It's a gift. his righteousness is a gift.
  • 00:20:44.218 --> 00:20:46.721
  • And one last verse, matthew 9.
  • 00:20:46.721 --> 00:20:50.925
  • When jesus "saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion
  • 00:20:50.925 --> 00:20:53.994
  • For them, because they were weary and scattered,
  • 00:20:53.994 --> 00:20:57.932
  • Like sheep having no shepherd."
  • 00:20:57.932 --> 00:21:02.370
  • When jesus see people going astray,
  • 00:21:02.370 --> 00:21:05.139
  • When he saw the people on the mountainside
  • 00:21:05.139 --> 00:21:07.608
  • By the sea of galilee, he saw them.
  • 00:21:07.608 --> 00:21:09.777
  • He didn't see them as rebellious.
  • 00:21:09.777 --> 00:21:11.379
  • "these people are just rebellious.
  • 00:21:11.379 --> 00:21:12.713
  • These people have no heart for god.
  • 00:21:12.713 --> 00:21:14.281
  • They deserve what's coming on them.
  • 00:21:14.281 --> 00:21:15.983
  • Yes, no wonder they are sick and broke and miserable
  • 00:21:15.983 --> 00:21:18.219
  • And depressed.
  • 00:21:18.219 --> 00:21:19.553
  • Serve them right."
  • 00:21:19.553 --> 00:21:20.888
  • He's not that kind of religious teacher.
  • 00:21:20.888 --> 00:21:22.289
  • He saw them-- you know what's the problem?
  • 00:21:22.289 --> 00:21:24.558
  • He saw them as sheep having no shepherd,
  • 00:21:24.558 --> 00:21:29.196
  • And that's why he had compassion.
  • 00:21:29.196 --> 00:21:31.399
  • "he was moved with compassion for them."
  • 00:21:31.399 --> 00:21:36.704
  • How do we see the world?
  • 00:21:36.704 --> 00:21:41.442
  • They tell you they are sick. you know, they tell you that.
  • 00:21:41.442 --> 00:21:46.614
  • Like, "night fever, night--" they call it fever.
  • 00:21:46.614 --> 00:21:51.185
  • They tell you they are sick.
  • 00:21:51.185 --> 00:21:55.389
  • They think they're enjoying life, but they are not.
  • 00:21:55.389 --> 00:21:58.692
  • They're not.
  • 00:21:58.692 --> 00:22:02.730
  • It's not enjoying life when you can't even remember
  • 00:22:02.730 --> 00:22:05.599
  • The one that you danced with last night,
  • 00:22:05.599 --> 00:22:08.436
  • When you can't even remember who is the one
  • 00:22:08.436 --> 00:22:10.070
  • That you slept with this morning.
  • 00:22:10.070 --> 00:22:11.739
  • You can't even remember why you're throwing up
  • 00:22:11.739 --> 00:22:13.741
  • Everything that you're eating.
  • 00:22:13.741 --> 00:22:15.476
  • You're depressed and you're hooked on
  • 00:22:15.476 --> 00:22:16.877
  • This and this.
  • 00:22:16.877 --> 00:22:18.212
  • You got to plug in so many things into your system
  • 00:22:18.212 --> 00:22:19.980
  • Just to feel alive.
  • 00:22:19.980 --> 00:22:21.348
  • That's not life. god loves you too much.
  • 00:22:21.348 --> 00:22:23.184
  • You're too precious.
  • 00:22:23.184 --> 00:22:25.152
  • The world might not care, and the world doesn't care.
  • 00:22:25.152 --> 00:22:27.855
  • God cares, and the way he sees you,
  • 00:22:27.855 --> 00:22:30.558
  • No, he doesn't see you as rebellious.
  • 00:22:30.558 --> 00:22:31.892
  • He sees you as a sheep going astray,
  • 00:22:31.892 --> 00:22:35.129
  • And he's sending his holy spirit to bring you back.
  • 00:22:35.129 --> 00:22:36.897
  • I don't believe anyone here or anyone watching
  • 00:22:36.897 --> 00:22:39.433
  • By way of broadcast is watching by chance.
  • 00:22:39.433 --> 00:22:42.937
  • God is drawing you.
  • 00:22:42.937 --> 00:22:44.705
  • He's returning you to the shepherd of your soul,
  • 00:22:44.705 --> 00:22:50.277
  • And because we are not smart enough as sheep
  • 00:22:50.277 --> 00:22:52.713
  • To watch over ourselves,
  • 00:22:52.713 --> 00:22:54.348
  • We trust the lord and live a life of rest,
  • 00:22:54.348 --> 00:22:56.750
  • Live a life of joy, a life of being loved, amen.
