  • ...
  • 00:00:00.633 --> 00:00:02.888
  • Joseph prince: every fear, worry that has seized hold
  • 00:00:12.164 --> 00:00:14.500
  • Upon our heart is because we took our eyes off jesus.
  • 00:00:14.633 --> 00:00:18.003
  • We started looking to this expert
  • 00:00:18.137 --> 00:00:20.072
  • And started looking to this person--men.
  • 00:00:20.205 --> 00:00:20.939
  • We started looking at men instead of looking to the lord.
  • 00:00:22.541 --> 00:00:25.144
  • We started to hear man's words. we are feeding off man's words.
  • 00:00:25.144 --> 00:00:29.214
  • That is no bread at all. they cannot nourish you.
  • 00:00:29.214 --> 00:00:31.717
  • We are feeding on that.
  • 00:00:31.717 --> 00:00:33.051
  • We are looking at the news and our facebook
  • 00:00:33.051 --> 00:00:35.554
  • And all the different venues of information,
  • 00:00:35.554 --> 00:00:38.257
  • And we are, you know, we are trying to feed on these things.
  • 00:00:38.257 --> 00:00:41.727
  • And these things don't feed.
  • 00:00:41.727 --> 00:00:43.462
  • The true bread of life-- he wants to feed you.
  • 00:00:43.462 --> 00:00:46.732
  • Male announcer: when the demands of life come one after another,
  • 00:00:48.300 --> 00:00:51.537
  • What will raise us up?
  • 00:00:51.537 --> 00:00:53.305
  • In today's message, joseph shows us how to look above the waves,
  • 00:00:53.305 --> 00:00:57.209
  • Fix our eyes on jesus, and find confidence, peace, and strength
  • 00:00:57.209 --> 00:01:00.979
  • In the word.
  • 00:01:00.979 --> 00:01:03.048
  • Encouraged by today's message?

  • 00:01:20.065 --> 00:01:22.801
  • Announcer: and now here is pastor joseph prince
  • 00:01:22.801 --> 00:01:25.204
  • With today's program.
  • 00:01:25.204 --> 00:01:26.672
  • Joseph prince: all over the world,
  • 00:01:26.672 --> 00:01:28.006
  • The winds are blowing and blowing strong.
  • 00:01:28.006 --> 00:01:29.341
  • There's a storm, amen? we are in the midst of a storm.
  • 00:01:29.341 --> 00:01:32.611
  • And the bible says that--
  • 00:01:32.611 --> 00:01:34.813
  • There's a beautiful phrase in psalms 107.
  • 00:01:34.813 --> 00:01:38.784
  • It talks about-- let me show you psalms 107.
  • 00:01:38.784 --> 00:01:40.719
  • I love this.
  • 00:01:40.719 --> 00:01:42.054
  • And "oh, give thanks to the lord, for he is good!
  • 00:01:42.054 --> 00:01:44.656
  • For his mercy endures forever.
  • 00:01:44.656 --> 00:01:46.758
  • Let the redeemed of the lord say so,
  • 00:01:46.758 --> 00:01:48.961
  • Whom he has redeemed from the hand of the enemy."
  • 00:01:48.961 --> 00:01:51.730
  • "oh, give thanks to the lord, for he is good!
  • 00:01:51.730 --> 00:01:55.100
  • For his mercy endures forever."
  • 00:01:55.100 --> 00:01:56.969
  • In hebrew, "hodu l'adonai ki tov,"
  • 00:01:56.969 --> 00:02:00.339
  • Because he is good.
  • 00:02:00.339 --> 00:02:01.707
  • "ki l'olam," because forever.
  • 00:02:01.707 --> 00:02:05.244
  • "ki l'olam chasdo," his grace reigns.
  • 00:02:05.244 --> 00:02:08.213
  • Hodu l'adonai ki tov. ki l'olam chasdo.
  • 00:02:08.213 --> 00:02:11.683
  • Give thanks to the lord, for he is good,
  • 00:02:11.683 --> 00:02:13.919
  • For his grace endures forever.
  • 00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:16.421
  • The word "mercy" there is translated
  • 00:02:16.421 --> 00:02:19.324
  • In different versions of the bible--niv, nasb, some--
  • 00:02:19.324 --> 00:02:23.262
  • One will say kindness, one will say loving-kindness,
  • 00:02:23.262 --> 00:02:26.365
  • One will say love, one will say steadfast love,
  • 00:02:26.365 --> 00:02:30.836
  • Because men are just trying to find a word
  • 00:02:30.836 --> 00:02:34.006
  • For this rich word, hesed, but you know what?
  • 00:02:34.006 --> 00:02:38.610
  • Today in israel, the believers in israel,
  • 00:02:38.610 --> 00:02:41.179
  • The messianic believers in israel,
  • 00:02:41.179 --> 00:02:42.648
  • They use new testament.
  • 00:02:42.648 --> 00:02:44.449
  • And we know the new testament is in greek,
  • 00:02:44.449 --> 00:02:46.551
  • But theirs is in hebrew and translated
  • 00:02:46.551 --> 00:02:50.188
  • By the great hebrew scholar delitzsch, himself is a jew.
  • 00:02:50.188 --> 00:02:55.427
  • And the great scholar delitzsch,
  • 00:02:55.427 --> 00:02:58.430
  • Everywhere that says hesed, it says grace;
  • 00:02:58.430 --> 00:03:02.734
  • Or, rather, wherever it says grace in our english bible,
  • 00:03:02.734 --> 00:03:05.237
  • It says hesed.
  • 00:03:05.237 --> 00:03:06.571
  • For example, it says, "for the law was given by moses,
  • 00:03:06.571 --> 00:03:09.641
  • But grace and truth came by jesus christ."
  • 00:03:09.641 --> 00:03:12.778
  • In their new testament, if you read it in hebrew, it says,
  • 00:03:12.778 --> 00:03:16.882
  • Hesed ve'emet, grace and truth came by jesus christ.
  • 00:03:16.882 --> 00:03:22.521
  • The law was given by moses. now, isn't the law true?
  • 00:03:22.521 --> 00:03:27.759
  • Yes, but it is not the truth that sets you free.
  • 00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:33.131
  • The truth that sets you free is grace and truth
  • 00:03:33.131 --> 00:03:35.967
  • Came by jesus christ.
  • 00:03:35.967 --> 00:03:38.136
  • And, by the way, they are actually one.
  • 00:03:38.136 --> 00:03:40.238
  • In the greek, it says-- "came" there a singular verb.
  • 00:03:40.238 --> 00:03:43.008
  • Should be plural verb because it's hesed ve'emet.
  • 00:03:43.008 --> 00:03:46.712
  • Grace and truth are two things. it should be plural.
  • 00:03:46.712 --> 00:03:49.514
  • But, instead, it's singular verb,
  • 00:03:49.514 --> 00:03:51.183
  • Which means both are combined.
  • 00:03:51.183 --> 00:03:53.085
  • It's truth-grace. true grace came by jesus christ.
  • 00:03:53.085 --> 00:03:59.191
  • Praise god, why? he is good.
  • 00:03:59.191 --> 00:04:01.326
  • But praise god also because his hesed endures forever, amen?
  • 00:04:01.326 --> 00:04:09.368
  • Amen, and "let the redeemed of the lord say so,
  • 00:04:09.368 --> 00:04:11.937
  • Whom he has redeemed from the hand of the enemy."
  • 00:04:11.937 --> 00:04:15.440
  • Hallelujah. drop down.
  • 00:04:15.440 --> 00:04:17.576
  • It says, "oh, that men would give thanks to the lord
  • 00:04:17.576 --> 00:04:19.678
  • For his goodness,
  • 00:04:19.678 --> 00:04:21.113
  • And for his wonderful works to the children of men!"
  • 00:04:21.113 --> 00:04:23.048
  • Friends, we are considering what the disciples failed to do
  • 00:04:23.048 --> 00:04:26.651
  • In considering the miracle of the lord's.
  • 00:04:26.651 --> 00:04:28.053
  • Right now, we are considering, and god is saying,
  • 00:04:28.053 --> 00:04:30.021
  • The spirit of god is saying, "consider what i am doing.
  • 00:04:30.021 --> 00:04:33.024
  • Consider what i am doing. consider what i am doing."
  • 00:04:33.024 --> 00:04:36.628
  • It says, "oh, that men will give thanks to the lord
  • 00:04:36.628 --> 00:04:38.764
  • For his goodness," amen?
  • 00:04:38.764 --> 00:04:41.199
  • Give thanks to the lord for his goodness.
  • 00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:43.635
  • During this time, he wants us to take stock
  • 00:04:43.635 --> 00:04:45.604
  • Of all that he has done in our life
  • 00:04:45.604 --> 00:04:47.038
  • And thank him for it,
  • 00:04:47.038 --> 00:04:48.407
  • Live a life of thankfulness, amen.
  • 00:04:48.407 --> 00:04:50.842
  • We are not in the days of vengeance yet.
  • 00:04:50.842 --> 00:04:52.511
  • And we won't be in the days of vengeance, amen?
  • 00:04:52.511 --> 00:04:55.380
  • Here it says, "praise the-- give thanks to the lord
  • 00:04:55.380 --> 00:04:57.816
  • For his goodness."
  • 00:04:57.816 --> 00:04:59.151
  • What is goodness in the hebrew? now, that's what i thought also.
  • 00:04:59.151 --> 00:05:03.922
  • I thought it's the word "tov."
  • 00:05:03.922 --> 00:05:06.291
  • Tov, like hodu l'adonai-- give thanks to the lord,
  • 00:05:06.291 --> 00:05:09.895
  • For he is good.
  • 00:05:09.895 --> 00:05:11.229
  • That is tov. ki tov, ki tov.
  • 00:05:11.229 --> 00:05:14.366
  • Because of his goodness. but here it is not goodness.
  • 00:05:14.366 --> 00:05:19.204
  • It is the word "hesed."
  • 00:05:19.204 --> 00:05:21.373
  • "give thanks to the lord for his grace."
  • 00:05:21.373 --> 00:05:24.910
  • Give thanks.
  • 00:05:24.910 --> 00:05:26.244
  • Have you ever thanked god for his grace?
  • 00:05:26.244 --> 00:05:30.081
  • The holy spirit is telling us,
  • 00:05:30.081 --> 00:05:31.550
  • "give thanks to the lord for his grace,
  • 00:05:31.550 --> 00:05:34.953
  • And for his wonderful works to the children of men!"
  • 00:05:34.953 --> 00:05:38.023
  • And that's what the disciples failed to do.
  • 00:05:38.023 --> 00:05:39.524
  • They forgot to give thanks for his grace,
  • 00:05:39.524 --> 00:05:42.060
  • And they forgot to consider the--
  • 00:05:42.060 --> 00:05:43.762
  • His wonderful works
  • 00:05:43.762 --> 00:05:45.230
  • That he just demonstrated a few hours ago
  • 00:05:45.230 --> 00:05:48.333
  • Up on that mountain-- or down the valley.
  • 00:05:48.333 --> 00:05:51.736
  • I believe that feeding happened
  • 00:05:51.736 --> 00:05:53.738
  • In the valley area of mount arbel.
  • 00:05:53.738 --> 00:05:56.475
  • Now, "for he satisfies the longing soul."
  • 00:05:56.475 --> 00:05:59.611
  • Why give thanks to the lord for his grace
  • 00:05:59.611 --> 00:06:01.112
  • And for his wonderful works?
  • 00:06:01.112 --> 00:06:02.447
  • Because he "satisfies the longing soul,
  • 00:06:02.447 --> 00:06:04.483
  • And fills the hungry soul with goodness."
  • 00:06:04.483 --> 00:06:07.452
  • Isn't that john 6 and mark 6-- the feeding of the 5000?
  • 00:06:07.452 --> 00:06:11.957
  • Okay, praise the lord. isn't that wonderful?
  • 00:06:11.957 --> 00:06:14.359
  • Friend, when you are sick, drop down.
  • 00:06:14.359 --> 00:06:16.027
  • Same portion here.
  • 00:06:16.027 --> 00:06:17.362
  • "fools, because of their transgression,
  • 00:06:17.362 --> 00:06:19.064
  • Because of their iniquities, were afflicted.
  • 00:06:19.064 --> 00:06:21.032
  • Their soul abhorred all manner of food.
  • 00:06:21.032 --> 00:06:23.468
  • They drew near to the gates of death.
  • 00:06:23.468 --> 00:06:25.770
  • Then they cried out to the lord in their trouble,
  • 00:06:25.770 --> 00:06:29.007
  • And he saved them out of their distresses.
  • 00:06:29.007 --> 00:06:31.743
  • He sent his word and healed them,
  • 00:06:31.743 --> 00:06:35.380
  • And delivered them from their destructions.
  • 00:06:35.380 --> 00:06:38.650
  • Oh, that men would give thanks to the lord for his hesed,
  • 00:06:38.650 --> 00:06:43.989
  • And for his wonderful works to the children of men!"
  • 00:06:43.989 --> 00:06:48.260
  • Now let's go to mark 6, hallelujah.
  • 00:06:48.260 --> 00:06:51.062
  • In mark 6, the bible says he went up to pray,
  • 00:06:51.062 --> 00:06:54.099
  • And drop down.
  • 00:06:54.099 --> 00:06:55.433
  • "when evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea;
  • 00:06:55.433 --> 00:06:57.903
  • And he was alone on the land.
  • 00:06:57.903 --> 00:06:59.838
  • Then he saw them straining at rowing,
  • 00:06:59.838 --> 00:07:01.907
  • For the wind was against them.
  • 00:07:01.907 --> 00:07:03.909
  • Now about the fourth watch of the night--"
  • 00:07:03.909 --> 00:07:06.778
  • That is 3 a.m. to 6 a.m., the darkest.
  • 00:07:06.778 --> 00:07:10.148
  • It wasn't the first watch, which is 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.
  • 00:07:10.148 --> 00:07:15.153
  • That's the first watch.
  • 00:07:15.153 --> 00:07:16.488
  • 9 p.m. to midnight is the second watch.
  • 00:07:16.488 --> 00:07:19.524
  • Third watch is midnight to 3 a.m.
  • 00:07:19.524 --> 00:07:22.127
  • But this is the darkest time of the night--3 a.m. to 6.
  • 00:07:22.127 --> 00:07:26.998
  • But, friend, it's just before dawn.
  • 00:07:26.998 --> 00:07:31.970
  • "but unto you that fear my name shall the son of righteousness
  • 00:07:31.970 --> 00:07:34.472
  • Arise with healing in his wings," amen.
  • 00:07:34.472 --> 00:07:38.543
  • So the fourth watch, the darkest time,
  • 00:07:38.543 --> 00:07:40.145
  • "he came to them."
  • 00:07:40.145 --> 00:07:41.646
  • Now, i was saying just now, what is god doing at this time?
  • 00:07:41.646 --> 00:07:44.115
  • Near the feast of the passover,
  • 00:07:44.115 --> 00:07:45.450
  • We are now near the feast of the passover.
  • 00:07:45.450 --> 00:07:47.218
  • What is god doing?
  • 00:07:47.218 --> 00:07:48.553
  • What is the lord jesus doing in the world,
  • 00:07:48.553 --> 00:07:50.088
  • Especially in the church?
  • 00:07:50.088 --> 00:07:55.193
  • He's doing an extraordinary movement.
  • 00:07:55.193 --> 00:07:58.597
  • Some people say this is the rapture,
  • 00:07:58.597 --> 00:07:59.931
  • A picture of the rapture,
  • 00:07:59.931 --> 00:08:01.566
  • Because he was praying for us just now,
  • 00:08:01.566 --> 00:08:03.468
  • But now he's coming to where we are.
  • 00:08:03.468 --> 00:08:05.303
  • So they say it's the rapture.
  • 00:08:05.303 --> 00:08:06.638
  • Number one, it is not the rapture,
  • 00:08:06.638 --> 00:08:08.707
  • Because here it says something.
  • 00:08:08.707 --> 00:08:10.041
  • It's an extraordinary movement before the rapture,
  • 00:08:10.041 --> 00:08:12.544
  • Because it goes on to say, verse 48, in the last part,
  • 00:08:12.544 --> 00:08:16.014
  • "he came to them, the fourth watch of the night,
  • 00:08:16.014 --> 00:08:18.249
  • Walking on the sea, and would have passed them by."
  • 00:08:18.249 --> 00:08:23.121
  • It's an extraordinary movement.
  • 00:08:23.121 --> 00:08:25.290
  • He's appealing to their affections.
  • 00:08:25.290 --> 00:08:27.993
  • "do you want me?"
  • 00:08:27.993 --> 00:08:29.327
  • Yes, he's telling the church, "do you really want me?
  • 00:08:29.327 --> 00:08:34.432
  • Do you want me, the person? i've loved you so."
  • 00:08:34.432 --> 00:08:39.004
  • "we love him because he first loved us," right?
  • 00:08:39.004 --> 00:08:41.706
  • But if we don't love him as we should,
  • 00:08:41.706 --> 00:08:45.010
  • It's because we don't realize how much he loves us.
  • 00:08:45.010 --> 00:08:47.879
  • We need to go back again to the truth--
  • 00:08:47.879 --> 00:08:49.481
  • "the son of god who loved me and gave himself for me."
  • 00:08:49.481 --> 00:08:53.885
  • Because the more you realize how much you are loved,
  • 00:08:53.885 --> 00:08:57.922
  • The more you will love him, amen.
  • 00:08:57.922 --> 00:09:00.925
  • John practiced that love. john knew the lord loved him.
  • 00:09:00.925 --> 00:09:07.432
  • And every time you look at john,
  • 00:09:07.432 --> 00:09:09.534
  • Five times it's mentioned in the gospel of john
  • 00:09:09.534 --> 00:09:11.803
  • That he's the disciple whom jesus loved.
  • 00:09:11.803 --> 00:09:13.204
  • He never draws attention to him,
  • 00:09:13.204 --> 00:09:15.106
  • Or else he'll put his name there.
  • 00:09:15.106 --> 00:09:16.608
  • But it's always "the disciple whom jesus loved
  • 00:09:16.608 --> 00:09:19.577
  • Asked the lord."
  • 00:09:19.577 --> 00:09:20.912
  • The disciple whom jesus loved outran peter.
  • 00:09:20.912 --> 00:09:23.782
  • The disciple whom jesus loved was quick to discern
  • 00:09:23.782 --> 00:09:27.118
  • Who was the one standing on the beach and asking them,
  • 00:09:27.118 --> 00:09:30.755
  • "children, do you have any food?"
  • 00:09:30.755 --> 00:09:32.357
  • He was of quick discernment
  • 00:09:32.357 --> 00:09:35.160
  • And the one who followed without being asked to follow.
  • 00:09:35.160 --> 00:09:39.130
  • Peter had to be told, "follow me,"
  • 00:09:39.130 --> 00:09:41.199
  • But john was following, you know?
  • 00:09:41.199 --> 00:09:43.601
  • You don't have to tell john to follow.
  • 00:09:43.601 --> 00:09:44.936
  • Just like caleb, he follows because he wants to, why?
  • 00:09:44.936 --> 00:09:48.106
  • Because he has a revelation
  • 00:09:48.106 --> 00:09:49.674
  • That "i am the one whom jesus loves."
  • 00:09:49.674 --> 00:09:53.111
  • And once a while, we need to do that, friend.
  • 00:09:53.111 --> 00:09:55.447
  • Once a while, we need to just sit down and just affirm this:
  • 00:09:55.447 --> 00:09:58.717
  • The son of god--like paul. paul made it very personal.
  • 00:09:58.717 --> 00:10:01.386
  • He didn't say, "the son of god who loved us
  • 00:10:01.386 --> 00:10:03.388
  • And gave himself for us."
  • 00:10:03.388 --> 00:10:04.723
  • He said, "the son of god who loved me, who loved me."
  • 00:10:04.723 --> 00:10:07.625
  • Say that right now. make it personal.
  • 00:10:07.625 --> 00:10:09.427
  • "the son of god who loved me and gave himself for me," amen?
  • 00:10:09.427 --> 00:10:17.068
  • And because of failure to know that we are loved by the lord
  • 00:10:17.068 --> 00:10:21.072
  • And we are truly loved by him, a very personal love,
  • 00:10:21.072 --> 00:10:24.242
  • The lord now makes an extraordinary movement.
  • 00:10:24.242 --> 00:10:26.411
  • It's not the rapture. this is not the rapture.
  • 00:10:26.411 --> 00:10:28.546
  • The rapture--he will not pass anyone by who is saved.
  • 00:10:28.546 --> 00:10:31.916
  • Everyone. "we all," it says.
  • 00:10:31.916 --> 00:10:33.918
  • "we all who are alive and remain shall be caught up
  • 00:10:33.918 --> 00:10:37.255
  • To meet the lord in the air."
  • 00:10:37.255 --> 00:10:38.590
  • It's an extraordinary movement of the lord.
  • 00:10:38.590 --> 00:10:41.292
  • Even though he's seated at the heavenly place,
  • 00:10:41.292 --> 00:10:43.695
  • There's gonna be a special manifestation of the lord
  • 00:10:43.695 --> 00:10:48.399
  • In a way that he will show himself sovereign
  • 00:10:48.399 --> 00:10:51.469
  • Over the waves.
  • 00:10:51.469 --> 00:10:53.004
  • He will say, "look unto me, my child.
  • 00:10:53.004 --> 00:10:56.841
  • I am superior over the power of evil."
  • 00:10:56.841 --> 00:11:00.845
  • So far above every name that is named,
  • 00:11:00.845 --> 00:11:03.848
  • Every name that is named,
  • 00:11:03.848 --> 00:11:05.450
  • Not only in this world
  • 00:11:05.450 --> 00:11:07.552
  • But also in that which is to come.
  • 00:11:07.552 --> 00:11:09.187
  • It covers everything, amen? and let's go on.
  • 00:11:09.187 --> 00:11:11.656
  • Now, he would have passed them by.
  • 00:11:11.656 --> 00:11:13.558
  • In luke 24, the same thing happened.
  • 00:11:13.558 --> 00:11:15.994
  • He walked with the two on emmaus road,
  • 00:11:15.994 --> 00:11:18.163
  • And the bible says when they reached their house,
  • 00:11:18.163 --> 00:11:20.031
  • He would have passed them by.
  • 00:11:20.031 --> 00:11:21.566
  • He acted like he was going further,
  • 00:11:21.566 --> 00:11:23.935
  • And they had to ask him, "no, stay with us."
  • 00:11:23.935 --> 00:11:26.304
  • And he--show them that verse.
  • 00:11:26.304 --> 00:11:28.339
  • It said he would have gone further:
  • 00:11:28.339 --> 00:11:29.974
  • "he indicated that he would have gone farther.
  • 00:11:29.974 --> 00:11:33.244
  • But they constrained him, 'abide with us.'"
  • 00:11:33.244 --> 00:11:35.847
  • Remember when they saw him, the storm, and all that?
  • 00:11:35.847 --> 00:11:38.516
  • The bible says john-- show them john:
  • 00:11:38.516 --> 00:11:40.018
  • "and they willingly receive him," right?
  • 00:11:40.018 --> 00:11:42.754
  • "they willingly receive him into the boat,
  • 00:11:42.754 --> 00:11:45.290
  • And immediately the boat
  • 00:11:45.290 --> 00:11:47.125
  • Was at the land where they were going."
  • 00:11:47.125 --> 00:11:49.194
  • So, immediately the boat was at the land.
  • 00:11:49.194 --> 00:11:52.030
  • This transcends time and space.
  • 00:11:52.030 --> 00:11:53.498
  • You can say it's teleportation, right?
  • 00:11:53.498 --> 00:11:55.700
  • Immediately the boat was in the middle when jesus came,
  • 00:11:55.700 --> 00:11:58.570
  • Amen, and he stepped in--
  • 00:11:58.570 --> 00:11:59.904
  • When they willingly received him--
  • 00:11:59.904 --> 00:12:01.739
  • So it's a extraordinary movement of the lord right now.
  • 00:12:01.739 --> 00:12:03.741
  • The lord is telling-- but you say,
  • 00:12:03.741 --> 00:12:05.076
  • "pastor prince, i am a christian.
  • 00:12:05.076 --> 00:12:06.411
  • I have received the lord."
  • 00:12:06.411 --> 00:12:07.979
  • I'm not talking about that kind of belief on the lord
  • 00:12:07.979 --> 00:12:10.348
  • In the first place.
  • 00:12:10.348 --> 00:12:11.683
  • I'm talking about he's doing an extraordinary movement
  • 00:12:11.683 --> 00:12:14.352
  • At this time in the midst of the darkness
  • 00:12:14.352 --> 00:12:17.188
  • When the storm is still raging,
  • 00:12:17.188 --> 00:12:19.357
  • At a time when the passover feast draws near.
  • 00:12:19.357 --> 00:12:22.827
  • Right now, the lord is making an extraordinary movement,
  • 00:12:22.827 --> 00:12:26.164
  • And he is appealing to our affections.
  • 00:12:26.164 --> 00:12:29.934
  • He would have passed by.
  • 00:12:29.934 --> 00:12:31.669
  • It's almost like "do you want me?
  • 00:12:31.669 --> 00:12:33.938
  • Do you really want me?"
  • 00:12:33.938 --> 00:12:35.273
  • It's the same movement in laodicea,
  • 00:12:35.273 --> 00:12:37.275
  • The end-time church, the church, the seventh church,
  • 00:12:37.275 --> 00:12:39.944
  • The last one, in laodicea, that was proud,
  • 00:12:39.944 --> 00:12:42.280
  • A church that was wealthy, and they boast in their wealth,
  • 00:12:42.280 --> 00:12:45.316
  • A church that says, "i am rich. i have need of nothing."
  • 00:12:45.316 --> 00:12:48.152
  • And the lord says, "you do not know you're blind."
  • 00:12:48.152 --> 00:12:50.355
  • And that church in laodicea,
  • 00:12:50.355 --> 00:12:52.490
  • Jesus did an extraordinary movement.
  • 00:12:52.490 --> 00:12:54.058
  • He knocked-- of all the churches,
  • 00:12:54.058 --> 00:12:55.393
  • He made a personal appeal.
  • 00:12:55.393 --> 00:12:56.728
  • He knocked on the door.
  • 00:12:56.728 --> 00:12:58.062
  • We use it as a salvation verse,
  • 00:12:58.062 --> 00:12:59.397
  • But actually it's a verse written to believers.
  • 00:12:59.397 --> 00:13:01.599
  • It says, "he knocks on the door,
  • 00:13:01.599 --> 00:13:03.868
  • And he says--" notice, he doesn't open the door
  • 00:13:03.868 --> 00:13:06.170
  • Though he has the power.
  • 00:13:06.170 --> 00:13:08.072
  • He says, "would you welcome me?
  • 00:13:08.072 --> 00:13:12.877
  • If any man hear my voice and open the door,
  • 00:13:12.877 --> 00:13:15.446
  • I'll come in, and i will fellowship with him,
  • 00:13:15.446 --> 00:13:18.082
  • And he with me."
  • 00:13:18.082 --> 00:13:19.417
  • And it's the same movement here.
  • 00:13:19.417 --> 00:13:20.885
  • And, notice, when they willingly receive him--
  • 00:13:20.885 --> 00:13:23.488
  • You need to willingly receive jesus, focus on jesus,
  • 00:13:23.488 --> 00:13:26.758
  • And let the blessings of god follow you.
  • 00:13:26.758 --> 00:13:28.660
  • Whatever you need will follow you
  • 00:13:28.660 --> 00:13:30.728
  • If you look at the lord jesus, spend time with him.
  • 00:13:30.728 --> 00:13:34.365
  • It's a special move on our affections.
  • 00:13:34.365 --> 00:13:36.901
  • The lord wants his people's love and affection.
  • 00:13:36.901 --> 00:13:41.072
  • And we love because he first loved us.
  • 00:13:41.072 --> 00:13:47.645
  • You know what happened right at the end?
  • 00:13:47.645 --> 00:13:49.013
  • Immediately, the boat was there. call it teleporting, whatever.
  • 00:13:49.013 --> 00:13:52.116
  • This is a unique time.
  • 00:13:52.116 --> 00:13:53.985
  • In this year of time and space,
  • 00:13:53.985 --> 00:13:55.987
  • Amen, he just supernaturally transported the boat
  • 00:13:55.987 --> 00:13:58.790
  • Right to their destination.
  • 00:13:58.790 --> 00:14:00.124
  • They were there.
  • 00:14:00.124 --> 00:14:01.459
  • You know what happened on the other side?
  • 00:14:01.459 --> 00:14:02.794
  • Dawn was breaking.
  • 00:14:02.794 --> 00:14:04.128
  • And the bible says--drop down, show them at the end:
  • 00:14:04.128 --> 00:14:05.797
  • "when they came out of the boat, when they came out of the boat,
  • 00:14:05.797 --> 00:14:09.968
  • Immediately the people recognized him,
  • 00:14:09.968 --> 00:14:13.037
  • Ran through that whole surrounding region,
  • 00:14:13.037 --> 00:14:15.907
  • And began to carry about on beds those who were sick
  • 00:14:15.907 --> 00:14:19.177
  • To wherever they heard he was.
  • 00:14:19.177 --> 00:14:21.746
  • Wherever he entered, into villages, cities,
  • 00:14:21.746 --> 00:14:23.982
  • Or the country, they laid the sick in the marketplaces,
  • 00:14:23.982 --> 00:14:26.551
  • And begged him that they might just touch
  • 00:14:26.551 --> 00:14:28.319
  • The hem of his garment.
  • 00:14:28.319 --> 00:14:30.054
  • And as many as touched him were made well."
  • 00:14:30.054 --> 00:14:35.059
  • Friend, after this darkness,
  • 00:14:35.059 --> 00:14:39.330
  • There's gonna be an unprecedented revival
  • 00:14:39.330 --> 00:14:42.934
  • Like this world has never seen,
  • 00:14:42.934 --> 00:14:45.670
  • The church world has never seen--
  • 00:14:45.670 --> 00:14:47.405
  • Not like the revivals in the past.
  • 00:14:47.405 --> 00:14:48.873
  • This time, the manifestation will be such that everyone--
  • 00:14:48.873 --> 00:14:53.044
  • "as many as touch him were made well."
  • 00:14:53.044 --> 00:14:55.346
  • He's talking about personal touch.
  • 00:14:55.346 --> 00:14:56.681
  • He's making an extraordinary movement
  • 00:14:56.681 --> 00:14:58.516
  • For us to have a personal touch with him,
  • 00:14:58.516 --> 00:15:00.818
  • Personal relationship with him.
  • 00:15:00.818 --> 00:15:02.387
  • And then the bible says,
  • 00:15:02.387 --> 00:15:03.721
  • "as many as touch him were made well."
  • 00:15:03.721 --> 00:15:05.523
  • We are going into that time
  • 00:15:05.523 --> 00:15:06.891
  • Where everyone will be made well,
  • 00:15:06.891 --> 00:15:09.627
  • Everyone that touch him, hallelujah.
  • 00:15:09.627 --> 00:15:13.564
  • That's our desired haven.
  • 00:15:13.564 --> 00:15:16.067
  • But something happened in between that is not told,
  • 00:15:16.067 --> 00:15:17.869
  • And i'll close with this.
  • 00:15:17.869 --> 00:15:19.404
  • But before that, let me show you again.
  • 00:15:19.404 --> 00:15:20.905
  • Praise the lord for his goodness.
  • 00:15:20.905 --> 00:15:22.540
  • Drop down again in psalms 107.
  • 00:15:22.540 --> 00:15:25.543
  • "they reel to and fro," the people in the boat.
  • 00:15:25.543 --> 00:15:28.212
  • They are reeling to and fro
  • 00:15:28.212 --> 00:15:29.547
  • Because of the storm and the strong winds.
  • 00:15:29.547 --> 00:15:30.882
  • "and they stagger like a drunken man.
  • 00:15:30.882 --> 00:15:32.817
  • They are at their wits' end.
  • 00:15:32.817 --> 00:15:34.185
  • Then they cry out to the lord in their trouble,
  • 00:15:34.185 --> 00:15:36.287
  • And he brings them out of their distresses.
  • 00:15:36.287 --> 00:15:39.524
  • He calms the storm, so that its waves are still.
  • 00:15:39.524 --> 00:15:44.295
  • Then they are glad because they are quiet;
  • 00:15:44.295 --> 00:15:46.831
  • So he guides them to their desired haven.
  • 00:15:46.831 --> 00:15:50.368
  • "oh, that men would give thanks to the lord for his grace,
  • 00:15:50.368 --> 00:15:59.277
  • For his wonderful works to the children of men!"
  • 00:15:59.277 --> 00:16:01.646
  • What is god after?
  • 00:16:01.646 --> 00:16:04.449
  • He just wants us to be grateful for his grace.
  • 00:16:04.449 --> 00:16:08.086
  • His grace fed us when we don't deserve it.
  • 00:16:08.086 --> 00:16:11.522
  • If you go by what-- how we are behaving,
  • 00:16:11.522 --> 00:16:13.991
  • What we are doing, we'll never be fed.
  • 00:16:13.991 --> 00:16:16.694
  • We'll never be protected.
  • 00:16:16.694 --> 00:16:18.796
  • But he is telling us to give thanks to him
  • 00:16:18.796 --> 00:16:20.331
  • Because he is demonstrating grace during this time.
  • 00:16:20.331 --> 00:16:26.471
  • He is gonna protect you even though you don't deserve it.
  • 00:16:26.471 --> 00:16:30.808
  • You only have to believe it. there's a protection.
  • 00:16:30.808 --> 00:16:33.478
  • It's not something that i have to earn it.
  • 00:16:33.478 --> 00:16:36.747
  • And i hear--sometimes i hear people saying in such a way
  • 00:16:36.747 --> 00:16:39.350
  • Like, "you know, it's a place, it's a place, it's a place
  • 00:16:39.350 --> 00:16:42.186
  • Where, like, special elite few, those who are extra holy,"
  • 00:16:42.186 --> 00:16:45.523
  • You know?
  • 00:16:45.523 --> 00:16:46.858
  • It's not that, friend. we are all there.
  • 00:16:46.858 --> 00:16:48.192
  • We just have to realize it and give thanks to him
  • 00:16:48.192 --> 00:16:51.229
  • For his unearned, undeserved favor, for his grace.
  • 00:16:51.229 --> 00:16:57.768
  • And thank him for his wonderful works.
  • 00:16:57.768 --> 00:16:59.237
  • Thank him for his miracles, amen?
  • 00:16:59.237 --> 00:17:04.442
  • Now i wanna close with this, as i said just now.
  • 00:17:04.442 --> 00:17:06.777
  • I wanna close with this.
  • 00:17:06.777 --> 00:17:08.146
  • There's something that happened in between.
  • 00:17:08.146 --> 00:17:10.148
  • When jesus was on the water and they cried out,
  • 00:17:10.148 --> 00:17:12.216
  • They thought he was a ghost, he says, "i am.
  • 00:17:12.216 --> 00:17:14.585
  • Don't be afraid."
  • 00:17:14.585 --> 00:17:16.354
  • And the bible says peter actually said, "lord--"
  • 00:17:16.354 --> 00:17:20.124
  • And you find this in matthew's account--
  • 00:17:20.124 --> 00:17:21.692
  • Matthew 14.
  • 00:17:21.692 --> 00:17:23.661
  • And matthew 14 says, he says,
  • 00:17:23.661 --> 00:17:25.129
  • "lord, if it's you, bid me come," right?
  • 00:17:25.129 --> 00:17:28.766
  • "lord, if it's you, command me to come to you on the water."
  • 00:17:28.766 --> 00:17:31.302
  • Same account, same story.
  • 00:17:31.302 --> 00:17:33.104
  • "so jesus said, 'come.'
  • 00:17:33.104 --> 00:17:35.006
  • And when peter had come down out of the boat,
  • 00:17:35.006 --> 00:17:37.542
  • He walked on the water to go to jesus.
  • 00:17:37.542 --> 00:17:40.178
  • But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid;
  • 00:17:40.178 --> 00:17:42.813
  • And beginning to sink he cried out, saying, 'lord, save me!'
  • 00:17:42.813 --> 00:17:46.617
  • And immediately jesus stretched out his hand
  • 00:17:46.617 --> 00:17:48.553
  • And caught him, and said to him,
  • 00:17:48.553 --> 00:17:50.621
  • 'o you of little faith, why did you doubt?'
  • 00:17:50.621 --> 00:17:53.991
  • And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased.
  • 00:17:53.991 --> 00:17:56.460
  • Then those who were in the boat came and worshiped him, saying,
  • 00:17:56.460 --> 00:17:58.896
  • 'truly you are the son of god.'"
  • 00:17:58.896 --> 00:18:00.464
  • So this account is not mentioned in mark, luke, and john,
  • 00:18:00.464 --> 00:18:04.535
  • But it's mentioned in matthew.
  • 00:18:04.535 --> 00:18:05.903
  • Something happened when they saw jesus and he says,
  • 00:18:05.903 --> 00:18:07.872
  • "be of good cheer.
  • 00:18:07.872 --> 00:18:09.207
  • Ani hu, i am. don't be afraid."
  • 00:18:09.207 --> 00:18:13.211
  • The bible says, "peter said,
  • 00:18:13.211 --> 00:18:14.779
  • 'lord, if it's you, bid me come.'
  • 00:18:14.779 --> 00:18:16.380
  • Jesus said, 'come.'"
  • 00:18:16.380 --> 00:18:17.715
  • Listen, my friend. it's a special movement.
  • 00:18:17.715 --> 00:18:20.351
  • You can be like peter.
  • 00:18:20.351 --> 00:18:21.819
  • There are a lot of people saying,
  • 00:18:21.819 --> 00:18:23.154
  • "oh, you know, this psalm 91,
  • 00:18:23.154 --> 00:18:24.488
  • I don't believe it.
  • 00:18:24.488 --> 00:18:25.823
  • Or this miracle of protection and all that--
  • 00:18:25.823 --> 00:18:27.158
  • I don't believe it, or this mir--"
  • 00:18:27.158 --> 00:18:28.492
  • You know, let them say what they want to say.
  • 00:18:28.492 --> 00:18:29.827
  • But there's a special thing that, if you ask the lord,
  • 00:18:29.827 --> 00:18:32.897
  • "lord jesus, can i be like you, above the storm,
  • 00:18:32.897 --> 00:18:37.702
  • Above the fear, above the worry, above the care?"
  • 00:18:37.702 --> 00:18:41.672
  • And he will say to you, "come."
  • 00:18:41.672 --> 00:18:43.307
  • The lord loves for his people to be conformed to his image.
  • 00:18:43.307 --> 00:18:49.180
  • And something about the principle of transformation.
  • 00:18:49.180 --> 00:18:53.217
  • The bible says in 2 corinthians,
  • 00:18:53.217 --> 00:18:55.453
  • It says, "we all with unveiled face,"
  • 00:18:55.453 --> 00:18:58.189
  • The law has been removed,
  • 00:18:58.189 --> 00:19:00.057
  • "beholding as in a mirror the glory of the lord,
  • 00:19:00.057 --> 00:19:04.295
  • Are being transformed into the same image,
  • 00:19:04.295 --> 00:19:09.200
  • From glory to glory even by the spirit of the lord."
  • 00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:13.337
  • In other words, you are transformed by beholding.
  • 00:19:13.337 --> 00:19:16.107
  • How do you see jesus?
  • 00:19:16.107 --> 00:19:18.509
  • How do you see jesus now, friend?
  • 00:19:18.509 --> 00:19:21.412
  • He's above.
  • 00:19:21.412 --> 00:19:22.913
  • He's the lord on high, as the psalmist says,
  • 00:19:22.913 --> 00:19:25.616
  • Above the floods, above the waters.
  • 00:19:25.616 --> 00:19:28.853
  • And when peter saw that, peter says,
  • 00:19:28.853 --> 00:19:30.254
  • "i wanna be where you are.
  • 00:19:30.254 --> 00:19:32.657
  • I wanna be like you." and jesus says, "come.
  • 00:19:32.657 --> 00:19:35.559
  • Even the whole boat people don't believe, you come.
  • 00:19:35.559 --> 00:19:38.963
  • You believe me? you come."
  • 00:19:38.963 --> 00:19:41.499
  • And he stepped out.
  • 00:19:41.499 --> 00:19:42.833
  • And the bible says he started to walk on the water.
  • 00:19:42.833 --> 00:19:45.202
  • As long as his eye was on jesus,
  • 00:19:45.202 --> 00:19:48.072
  • Amen, he started to walk on the water.
  • 00:19:48.072 --> 00:19:51.842
  • How you see jesus is how you will be.
  • 00:19:51.842 --> 00:19:57.114
  • Friend, the exhortations of grace in the new testament,
  • 00:19:57.114 --> 00:20:03.721
  • Responsibilities that we talk about, responsibilities--
  • 00:20:03.721 --> 00:20:07.758
  • It's just responsibilities of-- grace is like this:
  • 00:20:07.758 --> 00:20:09.660
  • "let us be--let us be that which we are."
  • 00:20:09.660 --> 00:20:15.666
  • But the law says, "let us become what we should."
  • 00:20:15.666 --> 00:20:21.405
  • But the responsibilities of grace is
  • 00:20:21.405 --> 00:20:23.007
  • "let us be that which we are."
  • 00:20:23.007 --> 00:20:27.044
  • So all the exhortations of the new testament
  • 00:20:27.044 --> 00:20:29.213
  • Is just to behold him and supernaturally,
  • 00:20:29.213 --> 00:20:33.084
  • Not with human effort, not with the flesh,
  • 00:20:33.084 --> 00:20:37.355
  • Be transformed just by beholding.
  • 00:20:37.355 --> 00:20:39.690
  • If your problem is addiction, whether it's porn addiction,
  • 00:20:39.690 --> 00:20:47.231
  • Whether it is depression,
  • 00:20:47.231 --> 00:20:51.068
  • Whether it's some other sinful habit, look to jesus.
  • 00:20:51.068 --> 00:20:53.704
  • He is far above it.
  • 00:20:53.704 --> 00:20:55.639
  • And say, "lord, you are far above my depression.
  • 00:20:55.639 --> 00:20:57.775
  • I can see you, lord, above the storm,
  • 00:20:57.775 --> 00:21:01.078
  • Above this affliction."
  • 00:21:01.078 --> 00:21:02.546
  • And keep your eyes on him, and talk to him all the time,
  • 00:21:02.546 --> 00:21:05.983
  • Seeing him above your problem.
  • 00:21:05.983 --> 00:21:07.318
  • You know what?
  • 00:21:07.318 --> 00:21:08.652
  • All of a sudden, effortlessly, you'll be transformed.
  • 00:21:08.652 --> 00:21:10.654
  • We have so many testimonies of people writing in
  • 00:21:10.654 --> 00:21:12.857
  • To tell us that's what happens when you see jesus, amen?
  • 00:21:12.857 --> 00:21:17.228
  • Look to him. and how do you look to him?
  • 00:21:17.228 --> 00:21:20.064
  • In the scriptures--that's the number one way we see him--
  • 00:21:20.064 --> 00:21:23.200
  • And preaching that proclaim the scriptures,
  • 00:21:23.200 --> 00:21:25.503
  • Christ in the scriptures.
  • 00:21:25.503 --> 00:21:26.837
  • He taught us in the emmaus road,
  • 00:21:26.837 --> 00:21:28.706
  • All right, things concerning himself.
  • 00:21:28.706 --> 00:21:33.878
  • Even then, he wanted to win their hearts
  • 00:21:33.878 --> 00:21:36.714
  • Before he wins them all over
  • 00:21:36.714 --> 00:21:40.384
  • And by showing them things concerning himself.
  • 00:21:40.384 --> 00:21:45.289
  • Friend, let us praise the lord for his goodness.
  • 00:21:45.289 --> 00:21:48.192
  • He's making an extraordinary movement at this time
  • 00:21:48.192 --> 00:21:52.663
  • All over the world to his people.
  • 00:21:52.663 --> 00:21:55.132
  • Because as he is, so are we in this world.
  • 00:21:55.132 --> 00:21:58.602
  • And, friend, it was when peter took his eyes off jesus,
  • 00:21:58.602 --> 00:22:04.675
  • And that's the story of our lives.
  • 00:22:04.675 --> 00:22:06.010
  • Every failure, every fear, worry
  • 00:22:06.010 --> 00:22:08.779
  • That has seized hold upon our heart
  • 00:22:08.779 --> 00:22:10.815
  • Is because we took our eyes off jesus.
  • 00:22:10.815 --> 00:22:13.517
  • We started looking to this expert
  • 00:22:13.517 --> 00:22:15.753
  • And started looking to this person--men.
  • 00:22:15.753 --> 00:22:17.922
  • We started looking at men instead of looking to the lord.
  • 00:22:17.922 --> 00:22:20.691
  • We started to hear man's words. we are feeding off man's words.
  • 00:22:20.691 --> 00:22:24.728
  • That is no bread at all. they cannot nourish you.
  • 00:22:24.728 --> 00:22:27.298
  • We are feeding on that.
  • 00:22:27.298 --> 00:22:28.632
  • We are looking at our social media,
  • 00:22:28.632 --> 00:22:31.335
  • And we are looking at the news and our facebook
  • 00:22:31.335 --> 00:22:35.406
  • And all the different venues of information,
  • 00:22:35.406 --> 00:22:38.108
  • And we are, you know,
  • 00:22:38.108 --> 00:22:40.344
  • Really trying to feed on these things,
  • 00:22:40.344 --> 00:22:43.848
  • And these things don't feed.
  • 00:22:43.848 --> 00:22:46.484
  • The true bread of life-- he wants to feed you.
  • 00:22:46.484 --> 00:22:50.588
  • Spend time with him. will you do that?
  • 00:22:50.588 --> 00:22:54.158
  • It doesn't take hard-- remember this:
  • 00:22:54.158 --> 00:22:55.759
  • The moment you take one step,
  • 00:22:55.759 --> 00:22:57.528
  • He takes ten steps towards you.
  • 00:22:57.528 --> 00:22:59.697
  • I'm talking to the church.
  • 00:22:59.697 --> 00:23:01.198
  • That's what's happening right now, friend, amen?

  • The lord raise his face, smiling on you
  • 00:23:56.086 --> 00:24:00.858

  • Until then, we'll meet again. in jesus's name.

  • Male announcer: we live in a world
  • 00:24:21.679 --> 00:24:23.013
  • That moves faster than ever.
  • 00:24:23.013 --> 00:24:24.949
  • Headlines change by the hour. values shift.
  • 00:24:24.949 --> 00:24:28.886
  • Truth feels negotiable.
  • 00:24:28.886 --> 00:24:31.355
  • What was certain yesterday is no longer clear today.
  • 00:24:31.355 --> 00:24:35.859
  • But through all the noise and the shaking,
  • 00:24:35.859 --> 00:24:38.796
  • There is one who is still the same.
  • 00:24:38.796 --> 00:24:42.366
  • In the chaos, he is still the calm.
  • 00:24:42.366 --> 00:24:45.703
  • In the panic, he is still the promise.
  • 00:24:45.703 --> 00:24:48.806
  • Because when all else falters, fades, and falls,
  • 00:24:48.806 --> 00:24:53.177
  • He is still jesus, above it all.
  • 00:24:53.177 --> 00:24:55.913
  • So no matter what's popular today or forgotten tomorrow,
  • 00:24:55.913 --> 00:25:00.017
  • This ministry will still always be all about jesus,
  • 00:25:00.017 --> 00:25:04.755
  • Still the center of our call,
  • 00:25:04.755 --> 00:25:06.924
  • Still the heartbeat of our people.
  • 00:25:06.924 --> 00:25:09.393

  • Female: in 2016, my daughter was pregnant,
  • 00:25:19.770 --> 00:25:22.940
  • And she delivered early, 23 weeks,
  • 00:25:22.940 --> 00:25:26.143
  • And she had to stay in the nicu for four months.
  • 00:25:26.143 --> 00:25:30.080
  • A time came where we received a call from the hospital.
  • 00:25:30.080 --> 00:25:33.317
  • She had three different bacterial infections
  • 00:25:33.317 --> 00:25:37.955
  • And double pneumonia.
  • 00:25:37.955 --> 00:25:39.657
  • Her numbers were between, like, in the high 30s and 40s.
  • 00:25:39.657 --> 00:25:44.561
  • They're supposed to be, like, 85.
  • 00:25:44.561 --> 00:25:46.530
  • There wasn't much hope.
  • 00:25:46.530 --> 00:25:48.399
  • So it had been, like, at least ten years
  • 00:25:48.399 --> 00:25:51.669
  • Since my life being transformed through the teaching
  • 00:25:51.669 --> 00:25:54.371
  • And through pastor prince's ministry.

  • 00:25:56.607 --> 00:25:59.376
  • I know he wants my family healed.
  • 00:25:59.376 --> 00:26:01.412
  • My husband and i were praying.
  • 00:26:01.412 --> 00:26:02.746
  • We received holy communion
  • 00:26:02.746 --> 00:26:04.081
  • 'cause we receive holy communion often.
  • 00:26:04.081 --> 00:26:05.916
  • By the time we got to the hospital,
  • 00:26:05.916 --> 00:26:07.785
  • She was in the 70s.
  • 00:26:07.785 --> 00:26:09.219
  • So while we're waiting, literally,
  • 00:26:09.219 --> 00:26:12.556
  • We're watching the numbers go higher and higher.
  • 00:26:12.556 --> 00:26:16.427
  • We're just standing, believing god.
  • 00:26:16.427 --> 00:26:18.295
  • By the time the doctor came, she was in the 90s.
  • 00:26:18.295 --> 00:26:21.865
  • Right now she is healthy and strong,
  • 00:26:21.865 --> 00:26:24.368
