  • ...
  • 00:00:00.633 --> 00:00:01.311
  • Joseph prince: dear friend, as this year draws to a close,
  • 00:00:10.587 --> 00:00:13.857
  • I want to speak to you straight from my heart.
  • 00:00:13.957 --> 00:00:16.126
  • It's been a year filled with so much noise, change,
  • 00:00:16.259 --> 00:00:19.195
  • And uncertainty, and maybe for you
  • 00:00:19.329 --> 00:00:19.963
  • It's been a year of deep personal challenges too.
  • 00:00:21.498 --> 00:00:24.701
  • But in the midst of it all,
  • 00:00:24.701 --> 00:00:26.336
  • Here's what i want you to hold on to.
  • 00:00:26.336 --> 00:00:28.404
  • The lord jesus has not changed and neither has our calling
  • 00:00:28.404 --> 00:00:33.009
  • To bring his life-saving, heart-healing,
  • 00:00:33.009 --> 00:00:35.578
  • Peace-giving gospel to a world that desperately needs him.
  • 00:00:35.578 --> 00:00:39.349
  • After all these years, by god's grace
  • 00:00:39.349 --> 00:00:41.851
  • And with your faithful support, this ministry has endeavored
  • 00:00:41.851 --> 00:00:45.188
  • To lift up the name of jesus through our broadcasts,
  • 00:00:45.188 --> 00:00:48.224
  • Digital outreach, and every open door the lord provides.
  • 00:00:48.224 --> 00:00:52.128
  • And even though the world keeps shifting,
  • 00:00:52.128 --> 00:00:54.197
  • One thing remains true: people still need jesus.
  • 00:00:54.197 --> 00:00:58.668
  • They need to know there is a savior who still heals,
  • 00:00:58.668 --> 00:01:01.604
  • Still restores, still provides, and still protects.
  • 00:01:01.604 --> 00:01:06.509
  • So as we step into 2026, i invite you to shine that light
  • 00:01:06.509 --> 00:01:11.247
  • With us.
  • 00:01:11.247 --> 00:01:12.582
  • Let's believe bigger. let's build together.
  • 00:01:12.582 --> 00:01:15.685
  • Your generosity helps someone else experience
  • 00:01:15.685 --> 00:01:19.122
  • The same jesus who changed your life.
  • 00:01:19.122 --> 00:01:22.725
  • So i pray that you will give as the lord puts in your heart.
  • 00:01:22.725 --> 00:01:26.729
  • Wendy and i are praying you will walk into the new year
  • 00:01:26.729 --> 00:01:29.332
  • With fresh grace, peace, and every good thing
  • 00:01:29.332 --> 00:01:32.869
  • The lord has in store for you.
  • 00:01:32.869 --> 00:01:35.104
  • God bless you and your family always.
  • 00:01:35.104 --> 00:01:38.441
  • Joseph prince: as long as your eye is on jesus,
  • 00:01:41.544 --> 00:01:43.346
  • You can do amazing things.
  • 00:01:43.346 --> 00:01:46.816
  • You see, you forget that your supernatural ability
  • 00:01:46.816 --> 00:01:49.652
  • Does not come by doing more fasting, more praying,
  • 00:01:49.652 --> 00:01:52.055
  • More praying, by casting out, casting in, swinging here,
  • 00:01:52.055 --> 00:01:55.725
  • Being still, you know?
  • 00:01:55.725 --> 00:01:57.961
  • It comes by looking at jesus.
  • 00:01:57.961 --> 00:02:00.029
  • It comes by looking away from self
  • 00:02:00.029 --> 00:02:01.731
  • With all its good and its bad,
  • 00:02:01.731 --> 00:02:03.967
  • With its depression and all its exhilaration.
  • 00:02:03.967 --> 00:02:06.603
  • And you'll be okay as long as you put
  • 00:02:06.603 --> 00:02:08.538
  • Whatever you are beset with right now--
  • 00:02:08.538 --> 00:02:10.873
  • Sickness in your family, financial downturn,
  • 00:02:10.873 --> 00:02:15.311
  • A bad habit, addiction-- as long as you put that thing,
  • 00:02:15.311 --> 00:02:19.749
  • All right, not between you and jesus,
  • 00:02:19.749 --> 00:02:22.018
  • But put jesus between you and the thing,
  • 00:02:22.018 --> 00:02:25.054
  • You'll be okay.
  • 00:02:25.054 --> 00:02:26.389
  • You will conquer the thing.
  • 00:02:26.389 --> 00:02:28.157
  • But as long as you put that thing between you
  • 00:02:28.157 --> 00:02:31.761
  • And jesus and that thing becomes bigger and bigger,
  • 00:02:31.761 --> 00:02:33.730
  • You don't see jesus, you are gonna sink.
  • 00:02:33.730 --> 00:02:37.634
  • He sank, he began to sink, all right?
  • 00:02:37.634 --> 00:02:41.237
  • And jesus got hold of him. now, friend, listen.
  • 00:02:41.237 --> 00:02:45.875
  • Peter was too slow to reach jesus.
  • 00:02:45.875 --> 00:02:49.545
  • But jesus was not too slow to reach him.
  • 00:02:49.545 --> 00:02:53.783
  • He does it for everyone that's sinking.
  • 00:02:53.783 --> 00:02:56.352
  • You'll feel a strong hand holding you.
  • 00:02:56.352 --> 00:02:58.154
  • He will teach you the lessons
  • 00:02:58.154 --> 00:03:00.189
  • Of walking in the spirit, but when you fall,
  • 00:03:00.189 --> 00:03:03.293
  • He doesn't abandon you, he's gonna hold you.
  • 00:03:03.293 --> 00:03:06.029
  • And being held on by his strong arms of love
  • 00:03:06.029 --> 00:03:09.732
  • Is better than holding on to him with your weak hands.
  • 00:03:09.732 --> 00:03:14.904
  • Male announcer: epic battles, unexpected heroes,
  • 00:03:14.971 --> 00:03:18.141
  • And a parted sea.
  • 00:03:18.141 --> 00:03:19.609
  • It's time to experience the word of god
  • 00:03:19.609 --> 00:03:21.844
  • In a fresh new way.
  • 00:03:21.844 --> 00:03:23.613
  • In today's message, joseph opens the scroll
  • 00:03:23.613 --> 00:03:26.316
  • On some of the most amazing scenes in scripture
  • 00:03:26.316 --> 00:03:29.118
  • And shows you how the lord's love for us
  • 00:03:29.118 --> 00:03:31.054
  • Has been woven into each one of them.
  • 00:03:31.054 --> 00:03:34.757
  • If a picture can paint a thousand words,
  • 00:03:34.757 --> 00:03:37.427
  • Imagine the wonder of a book where every page reveals
  • 00:03:37.427 --> 00:03:41.597
  • The beauty of jesus.
  • 00:03:41.597 --> 00:03:43.766
  • In his book "expedition promised land,"
  • 00:03:43.766 --> 00:03:46.369
  • Joseph brings the stories of the bible to you
  • 00:03:46.369 --> 00:03:48.604
  • In full color: the miracle of jesus in capernaum,
  • 00:03:48.604 --> 00:03:53.276
  • The agony and love he poured out for us
  • 00:03:53.276 --> 00:03:55.278
  • In gethsemane, and the faith and confidence
  • 00:03:55.278 --> 00:03:57.880
  • To calm the storm on the sea of galilee.
  • 00:03:57.880 --> 00:04:00.883
  • As you take in these breathtaking sights
  • 00:04:00.883 --> 00:04:02.752
  • Through the lens of scripture and faith,
  • 00:04:02.752 --> 00:04:04.854
  • We pray you will experience what the disciples felt
  • 00:04:04.854 --> 00:04:07.390
  • On the road to emmaus:
  • 00:04:07.390 --> 00:04:09.726
  • Jesus himself drawing near, walking with you,
  • 00:04:09.726 --> 00:04:13.529

  • Announcer: and now, here's pastor joseph prince
  • 00:04:39.389 --> 00:04:41.758
  • With today's program.
  • 00:04:41.758 --> 00:04:43.159
  • Joseph prince: another exciting time in the word of god.
  • 00:04:43.159 --> 00:04:44.727
  • How are you all doing?
  • 00:04:44.727 --> 00:04:46.162
  • Every time the lord is with us, something good happens.
  • 00:04:46.162 --> 00:04:49.766
  • But you might say, "oh, pastor prince,
  • 00:04:49.766 --> 00:04:51.100
  • The lord is always with us."
  • 00:04:51.100 --> 00:04:52.435
  • Yes, but when his people come together,
  • 00:04:52.435 --> 00:04:54.804
  • There's a corporate anointing, amen?
  • 00:04:54.804 --> 00:04:57.540
  • There is a stronger manifestation of his presence--
  • 00:04:57.540 --> 00:05:02.011
  • So much so to the point that sicknesses can be healed,
  • 00:05:02.011 --> 00:05:06.382
  • Bondages can be broken.
  • 00:05:06.382 --> 00:05:08.651
  • You know, god's greatest idea long before adam fell,
  • 00:05:08.651 --> 00:05:14.090
  • In the secret of god's mind, was his son and his bride.
  • 00:05:14.090 --> 00:05:22.098
  • The son's bride.
  • 00:05:22.098 --> 00:05:23.433
  • The church was in god's idea, in god's heart, in god's mind
  • 00:05:23.433 --> 00:05:28.104
  • Even before adam fell.
  • 00:05:28.104 --> 00:05:30.907
  • The church didn't come about because israel rejected
  • 00:05:30.907 --> 00:05:34.143
  • The lord jesus as the messiah.
  • 00:05:34.143 --> 00:05:36.312
  • And then the father says, "you know what?
  • 00:05:36.312 --> 00:05:37.647
  • I'll comfort my son and i'll come up with this idea
  • 00:05:37.647 --> 00:05:41.350
  • Of a church."
  • 00:05:41.350 --> 00:05:42.685
  • No, the church was in god's heart.
  • 00:05:42.685 --> 00:05:44.687
  • And the apostle paul says that it was a secret,
  • 00:05:44.687 --> 00:05:48.090
  • A mystery hidden from the ages.
  • 00:05:48.090 --> 00:05:51.761
  • And here you are. look at you.
  • 00:05:51.761 --> 00:05:53.329
  • Praise the lord.
  • 00:05:53.329 --> 00:05:54.664
  • The church of jesus christ, alive and well.
  • 00:05:54.664 --> 00:05:57.266
  • And the gates of hell cannot prevail
  • 00:05:57.266 --> 00:06:00.336
  • Against the church, amen?
  • 00:06:00.336 --> 00:06:02.905
  • Again, don't have the impression the gates are attacking you.
  • 00:06:02.905 --> 00:06:07.310
  • No enemy attack with gates.
  • 00:06:07.310 --> 00:06:09.745
  • The gates of hell will not prevail against the church
  • 00:06:09.745 --> 00:06:11.848
  • Means we are attacking the gates of hell, amen?
  • 00:06:11.848 --> 00:06:15.651
  • To set the captives free, amen.
  • 00:06:15.651 --> 00:06:18.421
  • To liberate them, and the gates cannot hold up to the onslaught
  • 00:06:18.421 --> 00:06:23.292
  • Of the church.
  • 00:06:23.292 --> 00:06:24.627
  • The church of jesus christ marches on.
  • 00:06:24.627 --> 00:06:26.629
  • Our weapons are not material, amen.
  • 00:06:26.629 --> 00:06:29.198
  • Our weapons are not physical weapons.
  • 00:06:29.198 --> 00:06:32.768
  • We speak and we preach and we teach
  • 00:06:32.768 --> 00:06:34.971
  • And lives are transformed.
  • 00:06:34.971 --> 00:06:37.106
  • So as preachers, we should endeavor
  • 00:06:37.106 --> 00:06:39.375
  • To put our people under grace, amen.
  • 00:06:39.375 --> 00:06:43.379
  • We should unveil to the world-- the world understands do good,
  • 00:06:43.379 --> 00:06:46.415
  • Get good, do bad, get bad.
  • 00:06:46.415 --> 00:06:49.986
  • The world understands that, amen.
  • 00:06:49.986 --> 00:06:52.355
  • Every philosophy of man teaches that.
  • 00:06:52.355 --> 00:06:54.991
  • The world doesn't understand that we can receive
  • 00:06:54.991 --> 00:06:56.959
  • Good we don't deserve
  • 00:06:56.959 --> 00:06:58.928
  • Because another received the bad that he didn't deserve.
  • 00:06:58.928 --> 00:07:02.265
  • That's grace. grace is not basic.
  • 00:07:02.265 --> 00:07:05.735
  • Grace is the gospel.
  • 00:07:05.735 --> 00:07:07.970
  • I want to talk to you about peter.
  • 00:07:07.970 --> 00:07:09.705
  • He was one day by the lake of galilee
  • 00:07:09.705 --> 00:07:11.674
  • And he was washing his nets, and the bible says the multitude
  • 00:07:11.674 --> 00:07:14.377
  • Pressed upon jesus.
  • 00:07:14.377 --> 00:07:16.479
  • I love that.
  • 00:07:16.479 --> 00:07:17.813
  • They pressed to hear the word of god.
  • 00:07:17.813 --> 00:07:19.148
  • That was amazing.
  • 00:07:19.148 --> 00:07:20.483
  • And in that instant, they didn't press to get healed.
  • 00:07:20.483 --> 00:07:22.285
  • They pressed to hear the word of god.
  • 00:07:22.285 --> 00:07:24.287
  • I believe where the word of god is preached,
  • 00:07:24.287 --> 00:07:26.188
  • People are pressing.
  • 00:07:26.188 --> 00:07:28.324
  • You know, the other day i was with my wife at a certain--
  • 00:07:28.324 --> 00:07:32.395
  • It's not exactly a restaurant, it's a food stall.
  • 00:07:32.395 --> 00:07:34.697
  • And it serves really good food.
  • 00:07:34.697 --> 00:07:36.532
  • And i told my wife, "honestly, honestly,
  • 00:07:36.532 --> 00:07:38.768
  • If people want to start a food, you know, a food joint
  • 00:07:38.768 --> 00:07:42.738
  • Or whatever, make the food really good.
  • 00:07:42.738 --> 00:07:46.242
  • And you don't have to worry about advertisement.
  • 00:07:46.242 --> 00:07:47.577
  • People will advertise for you, amen.
  • 00:07:47.577 --> 00:07:50.680
  • Pastors and leaders, we must serve good food.
  • 00:07:50.680 --> 00:07:55.284
  • And good food is not man's idea.
  • 00:07:55.284 --> 00:07:57.053
  • Good food is all in the word of god, amen.
  • 00:07:57.053 --> 00:08:00.389
  • Jesus is good food, the bread of life, he says.
  • 00:08:00.389 --> 00:08:03.526
  • What do you do with bread?
  • 00:08:03.526 --> 00:08:04.860
  • You don't put it somewhere, admire it.
  • 00:08:04.860 --> 00:08:07.196
  • You eat it! just eat it!
  • 00:08:07.196 --> 00:08:10.566
  • Eat it! dee, dee, doo, doo.
  • 00:08:10.566 --> 00:08:13.436
  • Eat it!
  • 00:08:13.436 --> 00:08:14.770
  • That's how you nourish. bread outside won't help you.
  • 00:08:14.770 --> 00:08:17.206
  • Bread inside is gonna help you, strengthen you, amen?
  • 00:08:17.206 --> 00:08:20.109
  • Jesus says, "i'm the bread of life."
  • 00:08:20.109 --> 00:08:21.444
  • In other words, "feed on me," amen?
  • 00:08:21.444 --> 00:08:25.715
  • It's very touching-- how you get bread.
  • 00:08:25.715 --> 00:08:27.183
  • You have to crush it, you have to pound it,
  • 00:08:27.183 --> 00:08:30.720
  • You have to break it, you have to pound it again
  • 00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:34.123
  • Before it becomes-- then you've got to burn it.
  • 00:08:34.123 --> 00:08:37.159
  • All a picture of jesus's sufferings and the cross,
  • 00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:39.795
  • Before he becomes the bride of--bread of life
  • 00:08:39.795 --> 00:08:41.430
  • To the world, amen?
  • 00:08:41.430 --> 00:08:44.400
  • Because no man can eat him raw. he's trice-holy.
  • 00:08:44.400 --> 00:08:49.505
  • He has to be broken, carrying our sins for us
  • 00:08:49.505 --> 00:08:51.507
  • To come very near.
  • 00:08:51.507 --> 00:08:53.175
  • And we're about to see this happen.
  • 00:08:53.175 --> 00:08:54.510
  • So they press on jesus, and jesus looked behind,
  • 00:08:54.510 --> 00:08:56.579
  • And it's the lake of galilee.
  • 00:08:56.579 --> 00:08:57.913
  • Many of you have been there. they press on jesus.
  • 00:08:57.913 --> 00:09:00.116
  • Jesus looked behind, and there were two boats there,
  • 00:09:00.116 --> 00:09:01.817
  • The bible says.
  • 00:09:01.817 --> 00:09:03.152
  • Remember, say "two."
  • 00:09:03.152 --> 00:09:04.487
  • He could have gone in either one of them.
  • 00:09:04.487 --> 00:09:05.821
  • But the bible says, jesus stepped into the one
  • 00:09:05.821 --> 00:09:08.090
  • That belonged to simon...
  • 00:09:08.090 --> 00:09:10.793
  • Everything has a purpose.
  • 00:09:10.793 --> 00:09:12.395
  • When jesus comes to you and asks you for a favor,
  • 00:09:12.395 --> 00:09:15.798
  • He's not asking a favor because he needs it
  • 00:09:15.798 --> 00:09:18.634
  • As much as you need it.
  • 00:09:18.634 --> 00:09:21.303
  • He's setting you up.
  • 00:09:21.303 --> 00:09:22.738
  • Don't think for one moment if the lord tells you
  • 00:09:22.738 --> 00:09:24.707
  • To give anything-- give your time, give your money,
  • 00:09:24.707 --> 00:09:27.910
  • Give your words of wisdom to someone or whatever--
  • 00:09:27.910 --> 00:09:31.080
  • That you're going to lose it.
  • 00:09:31.080 --> 00:09:32.415
  • No, he's setting you up to bless you.
  • 00:09:32.415 --> 00:09:35.317
  • He can do things without us.
  • 00:09:35.317 --> 00:09:38.354
  • We cannot do anything without him.
  • 00:09:38.354 --> 00:09:41.223
  • So it is a privilege and an honor
  • 00:09:41.223 --> 00:09:42.892
  • To be used by the lord, amen?
  • 00:09:42.892 --> 00:09:45.995
  • So here, jesus says-- the bible says
  • 00:09:45.995 --> 00:09:48.364
  • Jesus stepped into the boat and jesus says to simon,
  • 00:09:48.364 --> 00:09:51.167
  • "launch out into the deep.
  • 00:09:51.167 --> 00:09:52.601
  • Let's go to the deep."
  • 00:09:52.601 --> 00:09:53.936
  • And by the way, they work all night already
  • 00:09:53.936 --> 00:09:55.738
  • And they caught nothing.
  • 00:09:55.738 --> 00:09:57.506
  • And jesus says, "let--go down, go in the deep, simon.
  • 00:09:57.506 --> 00:10:00.209
  • Let's go, and drop down your nets," plural,
  • 00:10:00.209 --> 00:10:03.679
  • "for a big catch."
  • 00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:05.347
  • And peter was watching, "master, we work all night.
  • 00:10:05.347 --> 00:10:09.785
  • We caught nothing!"
  • 00:10:09.785 --> 00:10:11.821
  • He needed a greater revelation of jesus, you know?
  • 00:10:11.821 --> 00:10:14.790
  • And he went with jesus because he said this:
  • 00:10:14.790 --> 00:10:19.028
  • "nevertheless, at your word, i will let down the net,"
  • 00:10:19.028 --> 00:10:23.065
  • Singular.
  • 00:10:23.065 --> 00:10:24.400
  • So you can say he obeyed.
  • 00:10:24.400 --> 00:10:25.735
  • Yeah, he obeyed, but not completely full.
  • 00:10:25.735 --> 00:10:28.938
  • Jesus says, "let down the nets," plural.
  • 00:10:28.938 --> 00:10:31.707
  • A lot of nets.
  • 00:10:31.707 --> 00:10:33.042
  • He says, "all right, we'll go and we'll let down the net."
  • 00:10:33.042 --> 00:10:38.514
  • And the bible says they enclosed so much fish
  • 00:10:38.514 --> 00:10:41.984
  • That they cannot take the fish into the boat.
  • 00:10:41.984 --> 00:10:43.686
  • They had to call for help from their partners,
  • 00:10:43.686 --> 00:10:47.423
  • James and john, the sons of zebedee.
  • 00:10:47.423 --> 00:10:49.892
  • John, the beloved disciple. they call for help.
  • 00:10:49.892 --> 00:10:53.596
  • And that's how much blessings will come
  • 00:10:53.596 --> 00:10:56.065
  • When you know jesus loves you.
  • 00:10:56.065 --> 00:10:58.734
  • And he's not gonna just say, "follow me,"
  • 00:10:58.734 --> 00:11:00.936
  • Without taking care of your needs.
  • 00:11:00.936 --> 00:11:03.572
  • The bible says the net began to break.
  • 00:11:03.572 --> 00:11:05.708
  • You ever wonder why the net began to break?
  • 00:11:05.708 --> 00:11:07.576
  • Because there's only one net.
  • 00:11:07.576 --> 00:11:09.879
  • The supply was greater than the means to contain it.
  • 00:11:09.879 --> 00:11:13.983
  • So god always thinks bigger than you.
  • 00:11:13.983 --> 00:11:16.919
  • You think of a job, god thinks of a position.
  • 00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:20.523
  • You think of family, just get married to this woman.
  • 00:11:20.523 --> 00:11:23.626
  • God thinks of generations.
  • 00:11:23.626 --> 00:11:26.295
  • God always thinks bigger, exceedingly, abundantly,
  • 00:11:26.295 --> 00:11:28.230
  • Above all we can ask or think.
  • 00:11:28.230 --> 00:11:29.799
  • And the bible says when they came--
  • 00:11:29.799 --> 00:11:31.267
  • The partners came to carry, you know, that heavy,
  • 00:11:31.267 --> 00:11:34.570
  • Swollen net into the boat, the boat began to sink...
  • 00:11:34.570 --> 00:11:40.009
  • And the bible says, "at this point,
  • 00:11:40.009 --> 00:11:41.777
  • Simon fell at jesus's feet, at his knees."
  • 00:11:41.777 --> 00:11:43.779
  • The bible tells you where.
  • 00:11:43.779 --> 00:11:45.114
  • And grabbed his knees and said, "depart from me!
  • 00:11:45.114 --> 00:11:47.216
  • I'm a sinful man!"
  • 00:11:47.216 --> 00:11:50.586
  • And i don't know why hollywood wants to change god's word,
  • 00:11:50.586 --> 00:11:54.657
  • You know, but he said, "depart from me."
  • 00:11:54.657 --> 00:11:56.992
  • Something happened to him.
  • 00:11:56.992 --> 00:11:58.327
  • Church, it is the goodness of god that leads men
  • 00:11:58.327 --> 00:12:00.563
  • To repentance.
  • 00:12:00.563 --> 00:12:02.464
  • You see, he didn't repent first
  • 00:12:02.464 --> 00:12:04.033
  • And then jesus gave him the catch of fish.
  • 00:12:04.033 --> 00:12:06.969
  • Jesus blessed him first,
  • 00:12:06.969 --> 00:12:08.704
  • And that drove him to repentance.
  • 00:12:08.704 --> 00:12:10.806
  • You must understand: under the old testament,
  • 00:12:10.806 --> 00:12:12.341
  • Under law, you have to change before god can bless you.
  • 00:12:12.341 --> 00:12:15.411
  • But under grace, god blesses you first, and you change.
  • 00:12:15.411 --> 00:12:20.316
  • The goodness of god will lead you to repentance, amen?
  • 00:12:20.316 --> 00:12:23.485
  • So remember, we preach repentance,
  • 00:12:23.485 --> 00:12:24.920
  • But we preach repentance under the new covenant, amen.
  • 00:12:24.920 --> 00:12:30.960
  • But he was--he didn't know the lord that well yet.
  • 00:12:30.960 --> 00:12:33.596
  • He realized all of a sudden who was in the boat.
  • 00:12:33.596 --> 00:12:35.931
  • "this man is no ordinary man. he is the son of god."
  • 00:12:35.931 --> 00:12:40.035
  • See, he was introduced by andrew as the messiah,
  • 00:12:40.035 --> 00:12:42.338
  • But now he sees him as the son of god.
  • 00:12:42.338 --> 00:12:44.306
  • "oh my goodness, i'm in the presence of god
  • 00:12:44.306 --> 00:12:46.175
  • In the flesh."
  • 00:12:46.175 --> 00:12:48.210
  • And that's why he fell at his knees and said,
  • 00:12:48.210 --> 00:12:50.246
  • "depart from me.
  • 00:12:50.246 --> 00:12:51.580
  • I'm a sinful man." it was a sense of his holiness,
  • 00:12:51.580 --> 00:12:56.352
  • Grabbed jesus in the-- it's a funny thing.
  • 00:12:56.352 --> 00:12:58.053
  • You grab jesus's knees, right?
  • 00:12:58.053 --> 00:12:59.688
  • You say, "depart from me. i'm a sinful man."
  • 00:12:59.688 --> 00:13:01.523
  • It's a contradiction of actions.
  • 00:13:01.523 --> 00:13:04.693
  • It is like "i know i can't be in your presence
  • 00:13:04.693 --> 00:13:07.062
  • Because i'm so dirty, i'm sinful,
  • 00:13:07.062 --> 00:13:08.998
  • Yet i cannot live without you."
  • 00:13:08.998 --> 00:13:12.368
  • The bible says--i believe jesus had a smile.
  • 00:13:12.368 --> 00:13:14.336
  • He says, "fear not, from now on, you'll catch men."
  • 00:13:14.336 --> 00:13:19.942
  • Hollywood says, "we're going to change the world."
  • 00:13:19.942 --> 00:13:22.711
  • But honestly, i prefer this: "don't be afraid.
  • 00:13:22.711 --> 00:13:25.014
  • From now on, you'll catch men," amen?
  • 00:13:25.014 --> 00:13:29.885
  • We need to finish this to let you go.
  • 00:13:29.885 --> 00:13:34.056
  • But i just wanna show you how he loves us,
  • 00:13:34.056 --> 00:13:36.358
  • How he loves us.
  • 00:13:36.358 --> 00:13:37.693
  • Now, the bible tells us another instance,
  • 00:13:37.693 --> 00:13:40.095
  • His heart and his hand is sin.
  • 00:13:40.095 --> 00:13:43.265
  • At first when he saw the multitudes,
  • 00:13:43.265 --> 00:13:46.135
  • And this prior to the feeding of the 5000,
  • 00:13:46.135 --> 00:13:48.504
  • He look at them and the bible says--
  • 00:13:48.504 --> 00:13:49.838
  • And i believe that it happened at the mount arbel area
  • 00:13:49.838 --> 00:13:53.676
  • Where the slope comes down, okay?
  • 00:13:53.676 --> 00:13:55.911
  • I know one gospel says "belonging to bethsaida."
  • 00:13:55.911 --> 00:13:59.248
  • One day i read that
  • 00:13:59.248 --> 00:14:00.582
  • And someone says it's over at bethsaida area,
  • 00:14:00.582 --> 00:14:02.251
  • But it doesn't say bethsaida.
  • 00:14:02.251 --> 00:14:03.585
  • It says "belonging to bethsaida."
  • 00:14:03.585 --> 00:14:04.987
  • In other words, during jesus's time, bethsaida,
  • 00:14:04.987 --> 00:14:08.023
  • It was farther away,
  • 00:14:08.023 --> 00:14:09.358
  • Had an area where they cultivated barley,
  • 00:14:09.358 --> 00:14:11.493
  • Or whatever it is.
  • 00:14:11.493 --> 00:14:12.828
  • That area belongs to bethsaida. and it's a mount arbel area.
  • 00:14:12.828 --> 00:14:17.967
  • Many of you have seen that mountain
  • 00:14:17.967 --> 00:14:19.401
  • By the lake of galilee.
  • 00:14:19.401 --> 00:14:20.736
  • So jesus saw the multitudes, and it was jesus,
  • 00:14:20.736 --> 00:14:23.906
  • Not the disciples.
  • 00:14:23.906 --> 00:14:25.240
  • Jesus says, "where can we find food to feed all this?"
  • 00:14:25.240 --> 00:14:27.343
  • He was testing the disciples, and the disciples said,
  • 00:14:27.343 --> 00:14:29.778
  • "lord, just tell them,
  • 00:14:29.778 --> 00:14:31.380
  • 'go back, go wherever, nearby, you know,
  • 00:14:31.380 --> 00:14:33.716
  • Tiberias or whatever and get food.'"
  • 00:14:33.716 --> 00:14:35.617
  • They didn't have the heart. jesus had the heart.
  • 00:14:35.617 --> 00:14:37.753
  • Jesus says, "you give them food."
  • 00:14:37.753 --> 00:14:39.088
  • You know what happened, right?
  • 00:14:39.088 --> 00:14:40.422
  • Five loaves, two fish in his hands
  • 00:14:40.422 --> 00:14:41.824
  • Multiplied to feed, actually, five thousand men,
  • 00:14:41.824 --> 00:14:44.960
  • But women and children, more than ten thousand,
  • 00:14:44.960 --> 00:14:47.730
  • With twelve basketful left over.
  • 00:14:47.730 --> 00:14:49.798
  • And the bible says that people wanted to make him a king.
  • 00:14:49.798 --> 00:14:53.035
  • And jesus left them. it's so cool.
  • 00:14:53.035 --> 00:14:55.204
  • He didn't come to promote himself.
  • 00:14:55.204 --> 00:14:56.872
  • He came, all right, to save man,
  • 00:14:56.872 --> 00:14:59.908
  • Not for just for their adulation based on the flesh,
  • 00:14:59.908 --> 00:15:02.778
  • But he wants them-- if they worship him,
  • 00:15:02.778 --> 00:15:05.047
  • They worship him because they see who he really is.
  • 00:15:05.047 --> 00:15:08.984
  • But they wanted a king like david to oust the roman,
  • 00:15:08.984 --> 00:15:14.023
  • You know, control and hold on their land.
  • 00:15:14.023 --> 00:15:17.526
  • "let's make him the king."
  • 00:15:17.526 --> 00:15:18.861
  • And the bible says jesus-- now, it's not recorded for us
  • 00:15:18.861 --> 00:15:20.996
  • How he did it.
  • 00:15:20.996 --> 00:15:22.331
  • He sent them away. he sent all of them away.
  • 00:15:22.331 --> 00:15:24.366
  • First of all, he sent his disciples down first.
  • 00:15:24.366 --> 00:15:26.402
  • Mount arbel, he sent them to go across the lake.
  • 00:15:26.402 --> 00:15:30.139
  • He tells them he'll meet them on the other side, all right?
  • 00:15:30.139 --> 00:15:34.276
  • I assume that happened or else they would not leave.
  • 00:15:34.276 --> 00:15:36.812
  • So jesus sent them first-- the disciples,
  • 00:15:36.812 --> 00:15:38.947
  • Took care of the disciples, took care of the crowd.
  • 00:15:38.947 --> 00:15:42.551
  • That was daytime.
  • 00:15:42.551 --> 00:15:44.353
  • He went up the mountain after that--
  • 00:15:44.353 --> 00:15:45.888
  • That's mount arbel--
  • 00:15:45.888 --> 00:15:47.222
  • Went up, after the disciples left, quite some time already,
  • 00:15:47.222 --> 00:15:50.859
  • Dismissed the multitude.
  • 00:15:50.859 --> 00:15:52.361
  • That's amazing by itself. and he went to pray.
  • 00:15:52.361 --> 00:15:56.198
  • Now he's on an elevation.
  • 00:15:56.198 --> 00:15:57.533
  • This is a picture of where jesus is right now.
  • 00:15:57.533 --> 00:15:59.568
  • Everything in the bible, peter is not peter, you know?
  • 00:15:59.568 --> 00:16:01.904
  • Peter represents you and i... the living stones.
  • 00:16:01.904 --> 00:16:05.107
  • Whatever happened to him is how jesus will take care of you,
  • 00:16:05.107 --> 00:16:07.476
  • How he will love you, how he will challenge you,
  • 00:16:07.476 --> 00:16:10.512
  • How he will cultivate you until you become a pillar.
  • 00:16:10.512 --> 00:16:14.583
  • Can i have a good amen?
  • 00:16:14.583 --> 00:16:15.918
  • And the story of jesus going up the mountain, it's like today.
  • 00:16:15.918 --> 00:16:18.754
  • Jesus is at the father's right hand, the mountain.
  • 00:16:18.754 --> 00:16:21.924
  • And the bible says, when night time came,
  • 00:16:21.924 --> 00:16:23.725
  • At the fourth watch, which is the darkest time,
  • 00:16:23.725 --> 00:16:26.728
  • They say darkest before dawn, that's the fourth watch.
  • 00:16:26.728 --> 00:16:28.730
  • Fourth watch is 3 a.m., the last third,
  • 00:16:28.730 --> 00:16:32.868
  • 3 a.m. to--facing your-- 3 a.m. to 6 a.m., the darkest.
  • 00:16:32.868 --> 00:16:37.940
  • The bible says from the mountain jesus looked down.
  • 00:16:37.940 --> 00:16:40.242
  • He was praying, don't forget.
  • 00:16:40.242 --> 00:16:41.577
  • He looked down and he saw his disciples,
  • 00:16:41.577 --> 00:16:43.212
  • They were still rowing.
  • 00:16:43.212 --> 00:16:45.447
  • Nine hours have passed. they were still rowing.
  • 00:16:45.447 --> 00:16:49.718
  • And the bible gives us the distance they rowed.
  • 00:16:49.718 --> 00:16:53.989
  • They only rowed 3 miles.
  • 00:16:53.989 --> 00:16:56.058
  • The destination to capernaum to which they were going to
  • 00:16:56.058 --> 00:16:59.828
  • Was 10 miles from where they were.
  • 00:16:59.828 --> 00:17:03.265
  • After nine hours, they were not nearer.
  • 00:17:03.265 --> 00:17:07.236
  • They were only 3 miles after nine hours.
  • 00:17:07.236 --> 00:17:08.670
  • You know why? the winds were strong.
  • 00:17:08.670 --> 00:17:10.272
  • The winds were blowing against where they were going...
  • 00:17:10.272 --> 00:17:16.011
  • Progress is hard without jesus.
  • 00:17:16.011 --> 00:17:20.549
  • It's like three steps forward, two steps backwards
  • 00:17:20.549 --> 00:17:23.919
  • All the time.
  • 00:17:23.919 --> 00:17:25.254
  • It's slow, you know, when you don't have jesus in your boat.
  • 00:17:25.254 --> 00:17:30.025
  • So the boat is a picture of the church, amen.
  • 00:17:30.025 --> 00:17:34.163
  • And jesus on the mountain is where he is right now.
  • 00:17:34.163 --> 00:17:36.298
  • Does he still have the same eyes,
  • 00:17:36.298 --> 00:17:38.934
  • The same heart, the same hand of power?
  • 00:17:38.934 --> 00:17:42.137
  • Does he care?
  • 00:17:42.137 --> 00:17:43.505
  • In the darkest period, he looked down; he saw them.
  • 00:17:43.505 --> 00:17:46.308
  • Those eyes, like the eyes of doves,
  • 00:17:46.308 --> 00:17:48.043
  • Saw his disciples rowing against the wind,
  • 00:17:48.043 --> 00:17:50.212
  • The bible says.
  • 00:17:50.212 --> 00:17:51.547
  • After nine hours, only 3 miles out of 10.
  • 00:17:51.547 --> 00:17:54.650
  • And the bible says a strong wind was blowing, boisterous,
  • 00:17:54.650 --> 00:17:58.020
  • And jesus came walking on the water!
  • 00:17:58.020 --> 00:17:59.655
  • How cool is that?
  • 00:17:59.655 --> 00:18:01.890
  • Male: the wind.
  • 00:18:01.890 --> 00:18:03.225
  • [congregation laughing]
  • 00:18:03.225 --> 00:18:06.361
  • Joseph prince: wind blowing, his hair fluttering
  • 00:18:06.361 --> 00:18:08.797
  • In the wind, his clothes.
  • 00:18:08.797 --> 00:18:11.233
  • And it was in the darkest time!
  • 00:18:11.233 --> 00:18:15.771
  • Lake of galilee is the lowest lake
  • 00:18:15.771 --> 00:18:19.007
  • In the whole world, okay?
  • 00:18:19.007 --> 00:18:20.876
  • Six hundred feet below sea level.
  • 00:18:20.876 --> 00:18:26.448
  • And many a times the funnel, the via maris,
  • 00:18:26.448 --> 00:18:28.750
  • Where the mount of arbel is, all right,
  • 00:18:28.750 --> 00:18:31.119
  • Because it's low, winds will go through this
  • 00:18:31.119 --> 00:18:33.589
  • Like a funnel.
  • 00:18:33.589 --> 00:18:34.923
  • It will come suddenly.
  • 00:18:34.923 --> 00:18:36.258
  • You can't even tell-- even experienced fishermen.
  • 00:18:36.258 --> 00:18:38.193
  • My pastors and me got caught one time.
  • 00:18:38.193 --> 00:18:41.129
  • We cannot go any further.
  • 00:18:41.129 --> 00:18:42.464
  • The fishermen-- not--the fisherman's boat,
  • 00:18:42.464 --> 00:18:45.234
  • The fisherman who was on board,
  • 00:18:45.234 --> 00:18:46.568
  • They gave us that business that night
  • 00:18:46.568 --> 00:18:47.903
  • Because people don't travel at night.
  • 00:18:47.903 --> 00:18:49.371
  • We are crazy.
  • 00:18:49.371 --> 00:18:51.139
  • I told the pastors, "let's do the boat ride at night."
  • 00:18:51.139 --> 00:18:54.343
  • And there was--we love doing things like this,
  • 00:18:54.343 --> 00:18:56.211
  • But there was one night we cannot go any further
  • 00:18:56.211 --> 00:18:57.746
  • Because the winds were choppy.
  • 00:18:57.746 --> 00:18:59.982
  • Imagine, rushing through.
  • 00:18:59.982 --> 00:19:01.984
  • The waves suddenly developed, all right?
  • 00:19:01.984 --> 00:19:03.885
  • They were caught, and jesus came.
  • 00:19:03.885 --> 00:19:06.488
  • The lord is above the storm, the bible says.
  • 00:19:06.488 --> 00:19:08.624
  • The psalmist says, "the lord rides the floods," amen?
  • 00:19:08.624 --> 00:19:13.128
  • And then the bible says the disciples look out.
  • 00:19:13.128 --> 00:19:16.231
  • Don't forget, it's very dark,
  • 00:19:16.231 --> 00:19:17.566
  • And they say, "whoa, what's that?
  • 00:19:17.566 --> 00:19:21.103
  • It's a ghost!"
  • 00:19:21.103 --> 00:19:23.872
  • It all depends which generation, all right?
  • 00:19:23.872 --> 00:19:26.475
  • If it's a girl in the boat, they'll say, "it's a vampire.
  • 00:19:26.475 --> 00:19:28.644
  • He must be handsome," you know?
  • 00:19:28.644 --> 00:19:30.112
  • But if it's a teenager, it'll be like, "is it incredible hulk?
  • 00:19:30.112 --> 00:19:36.785
  • Is it iron man?"
  • 00:19:36.785 --> 00:19:40.155
  • No, friends, it's the god man.
  • 00:19:40.155 --> 00:19:42.391
  • And jesus's answer was, in the greek, "i am."
  • 00:19:42.391 --> 00:19:45.894
  • That's the name of god.
  • 00:19:45.894 --> 00:19:47.396
  • "don't be afraid. i am."
  • 00:19:47.396 --> 00:19:49.364
  • I love it.
  • 00:19:49.364 --> 00:19:50.732
  • When moses asked, "what's your name, o god?
  • 00:19:50.732 --> 00:19:54.236
  • If you're sending me to the people of israel,
  • 00:19:54.236 --> 00:19:56.438
  • I'll need to tell them your name."
  • 00:19:56.438 --> 00:19:58.173
  • "i am that i am."
  • 00:19:58.173 --> 00:19:59.675
  • And now the i am is in the flesh.
  • 00:19:59.675 --> 00:20:02.044
  • He says, "i am."
  • 00:20:02.044 --> 00:20:03.378
  • And straight away peter-- who else?
  • 00:20:03.378 --> 00:20:06.248
  • Peter reminds me of all of us--
  • 00:20:06.248 --> 00:20:08.750
  • Impulsive, boisterous, engage the mouth
  • 00:20:08.750 --> 00:20:12.354
  • Before you engage the brain.
  • 00:20:12.354 --> 00:20:16.692
  • I know some of you, you are self-righteous, you say,
  • 00:20:16.692 --> 00:20:18.360
  • "i know someone who's like that."
  • 00:20:18.360 --> 00:20:19.695
  • No, no, this is about you and me, amen?
  • 00:20:19.695 --> 00:20:25.701
  • And he says, "lord, if that is you, bid me come!"
  • 00:20:25.701 --> 00:20:29.371
  • Jesus says, "cool man, come." okay, he says, "come."
  • 00:20:29.371 --> 00:20:35.711
  • And the bible says peter looked at jesus
  • 00:20:35.711 --> 00:20:37.779
  • And began to do what jesus did: walking on the water.
  • 00:20:37.779 --> 00:20:40.349
  • As long as your eye is on jesus, you can do amazing things.
  • 00:20:40.349 --> 00:20:45.754
  • People, as long as your eye is on jesus.
  • 00:20:45.754 --> 00:20:47.589
  • Do you all know what happened? it's a famous story.
  • 00:20:47.589 --> 00:20:49.524
  • When he saw the--he was walking on the water.
  • 00:20:49.524 --> 00:20:51.693
  • When he saw the winds, boisterous!
  • 00:20:51.693 --> 00:20:55.330
  • Means what?
  • 00:20:55.330 --> 00:20:56.665
  • "he took his eyes when he saw the winds" means what?
  • 00:20:56.665 --> 00:20:58.333
  • He took his eyes, come on, off jesus.
  • 00:20:58.333 --> 00:21:02.037
  • You see, you forget that your supernatural ability
  • 00:21:02.037 --> 00:21:04.973
  • Does not come by doing more, fasting more, praying more,
  • 00:21:04.973 --> 00:21:07.743
  • Praying by casting out, casting in, swinging here,
  • 00:21:07.743 --> 00:21:10.912
  • Being still, you know?
  • 00:21:10.912 --> 00:21:13.248
  • It comes by looking at jesus.
  • 00:21:13.248 --> 00:21:15.350
  • It comes by looking away from self
  • 00:21:15.350 --> 00:21:17.018
  • With all its good and its bad,
  • 00:21:17.018 --> 00:21:19.154
  • With its depression and all its exhilaration.
  • 00:21:19.154 --> 00:21:21.723
  • You can be up here...
  • 00:21:21.723 --> 00:21:23.592
  • Before the day is over, you are down there...
  • 00:21:23.592 --> 00:21:25.627
  • Look away from self.
  • 00:21:25.627 --> 00:21:27.429
  • There is no satisfaction in self.
  • 00:21:27.429 --> 00:21:30.665
  • We think that god wants us to be consciously holy.
  • 00:21:30.665 --> 00:21:33.335
  • No, god--in fact, when you are consciously holy,
  • 00:21:33.335 --> 00:21:37.973
  • You are satisfied with yourself.
  • 00:21:37.973 --> 00:21:39.875
  • God wants you consciously weak and satisfied with christ,
  • 00:21:39.875 --> 00:21:44.946
  • Putting everything in christ.
  • 00:21:44.946 --> 00:21:46.848
  • And the bible says he looked at the winds and he began to sink!
  • 00:21:46.848 --> 00:21:51.052
  • You see?
  • 00:21:51.052 --> 00:21:52.387
  • People say, "well, pastor prince,
  • 00:21:52.387 --> 00:21:53.722
  • I don't understand. your sermon's all about jesus."
  • 00:21:53.722 --> 00:21:55.056
  • All about jesus because we are building a supernatural people.
  • 00:21:55.056 --> 00:21:58.460
  • We are building people who can walk on storms, hm?
  • 00:21:58.460 --> 00:22:02.898
  • You think that this is not a practical message,
  • 00:22:02.898 --> 00:22:05.133
  • A message that unveils jesus?
  • 00:22:05.133 --> 00:22:06.701
  • It is the new covenant message.
  • 00:22:06.701 --> 00:22:10.338
  • It produces right believing, obedience of right believing.
  • 00:22:10.338 --> 00:22:15.577
  • As long as his eye was on jesus, he was doing what jesus did--
  • 00:22:15.577 --> 00:22:18.146
  • Above the storm, above the trouble,
  • 00:22:18.146 --> 00:22:19.481
  • Above the vicissitudes of life.
  • 00:22:19.481 --> 00:22:25.253
  • You see, as long as he put jesus
  • 00:22:25.253 --> 00:22:27.389
  • Between him and the circumstance,
  • 00:22:27.389 --> 00:22:30.625
  • He put jesus, he's okay.
  • 00:22:30.625 --> 00:22:32.594
  • And you'll be okay as long as you put
  • 00:22:32.594 --> 00:22:34.529
  • Whatever you are beset with right now--
  • 00:22:34.529 --> 00:22:36.865
  • Sickness in your family, financial downturn,
  • 00:22:36.865 --> 00:22:41.169
  • A bad habit, addiction.
  • 00:22:41.169 --> 00:22:43.104
  • As long as you put that thing, all right,
  • 00:22:43.104 --> 00:22:46.708
  • Not between you and jesus, but put jesus between you
  • 00:22:46.708 --> 00:22:49.878
  • And the thing, you'll be okay.
  • 00:22:49.878 --> 00:22:52.581
  • You will conquer the thing.
  • 00:22:52.581 --> 00:22:54.316
  • But as long as you put that thing
  • 00:22:54.316 --> 00:22:57.018
  • Between you and jesus, and that thing becomes
  • 00:22:57.018 --> 00:22:59.154
  • Bigger and bigger,
  • 00:22:59.154 --> 00:23:00.489
  • You don't see jesus, you are going to sink.
  • 00:23:00.489 --> 00:23:03.758
  • He sank. he began to sink, all right?
  • 00:23:03.758 --> 00:23:07.462
  • And jesus got hold of him. now, friend, listen.
  • 00:23:07.462 --> 00:23:12.000
  • Peter was too slow to reach jesus.
  • 00:23:12.000 --> 00:23:15.670
  • But jesus was not too slow to reach him in plenty of time,
  • 00:23:15.670 --> 00:23:22.844
  • Hm?
  • 00:23:22.844 --> 00:23:24.613
  • He was quite a distance. how did he make it?
  • 00:23:24.613 --> 00:23:27.849
  • He does it for everyone that's sinking.
  • 00:23:27.849 --> 00:23:30.285
  • You'll feel a strong hand holding you.
  • 00:23:30.285 --> 00:23:33.121
  • Yes, he will teach you the lessons
  • 00:23:33.121 --> 00:23:35.924
  • Of walking in the spirit, but when you fall,
  • 00:23:35.924 --> 00:23:39.127
  • He doesn't abandon you, he's gonna hold you.
  • 00:23:39.127 --> 00:23:41.796
  • And being held on by his strong arms of love
  • 00:23:41.796 --> 00:23:45.500
  • Is better than holding on to him with your weak hands.
  • 00:23:45.500 --> 00:23:52.340
  • And jesus, the bible says, went back to the boat.
  • 00:23:52.340 --> 00:23:55.277
  • Now, in the other accounts, it says, "immediately,
  • 00:23:55.277 --> 00:23:58.947
  • When he stepped into the boat, the wind ceased."
  • 00:23:58.947 --> 00:24:02.217
  • John 6:21 is amazing. you must see this.
  • 00:24:02.217 --> 00:24:04.085
  • John 6:21, "then they willingly received him into the boat,
  • 00:24:04.085 --> 00:24:06.688
  • And immediately the boat was at the land."
  • 00:24:06.688 --> 00:24:11.259
  • Three, four miles, bang, he stepped in,
  • 00:24:11.259 --> 00:24:13.695
  • The wind ceased, they were on land,
  • 00:24:13.695 --> 00:24:15.897
  • The mist cleared, they say, "what is this?
  • 00:24:15.897 --> 00:24:18.133
  • We are in capernaum."
  • 00:24:18.133 --> 00:24:21.570
  • And the world is talking about teleporting.
  • 00:24:21.570 --> 00:24:28.143
  • You'll make progress when jesus is in your boat.
  • 00:24:28.143 --> 00:24:31.279
  • You'll make progress when he is in your marriage.
  • 00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:33.848
  • You'll make progress when he is in your school,
  • 00:24:33.848 --> 00:24:36.985
  • In your career, all right?
