  • And now here's pastor joseph prince with today's program.
  • 00:00:57.433 --> 00:01:01.271
  • Joseph prince: greetings, church.
  • 00:01:01.271 --> 00:01:03.173
  • Love every one of you, amen.
  • 00:01:03.173 --> 00:01:04.541
  • Are you ready for the word?
  • 00:01:04.541 --> 00:01:06.142
  • Now, let's go to the story of the meeting
  • 00:01:06.142 --> 00:01:08.912
  • Of abraham and melchizedek, because god wants to
  • 00:01:08.912 --> 00:01:13.416
  • Emphasize something for us today.
  • 00:01:13.416 --> 00:01:14.851
  • Are you ready?
  • 00:01:14.851 --> 00:01:16.186
  • Abram heard that his brother was taken captive.
  • 00:01:16.186 --> 00:01:18.288
  • "he armed his three hundred and eighteen trained servants
  • 00:01:18.288 --> 00:01:20.990
  • Who were born in his own house,
  • 00:01:20.990 --> 00:01:22.358
  • And went in pursuit as far as dan.
  • 00:01:22.358 --> 00:01:23.993
  • He divided his forces against them by night,
  • 00:01:23.993 --> 00:01:26.362
  • And he and his servants attacked them
  • 00:01:26.362 --> 00:01:28.665
  • And pursued them as far as hobah,
  • 00:01:28.665 --> 00:01:30.667
  • Which is north of damascus.
  • 00:01:30.667 --> 00:01:32.702
  • So, he brought back all the goods,
  • 00:01:32.702 --> 00:01:35.004
  • And also brought back his brother lot
  • 00:01:35.004 --> 00:01:36.639
  • And his goods, as well as the women
  • 00:01:36.639 --> 00:01:38.374
  • And the people."
  • 00:01:38.374 --> 00:01:39.776
  • Now they're on their way back.
  • 00:01:39.776 --> 00:01:41.110
  • So, they are going back to hebron, okay,
  • 00:01:41.110 --> 00:01:43.680
  • And they have to go through jerusalem.
  • 00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:46.216
  • Because from damascus down, you will pass by jerusalem
  • 00:01:46.216 --> 00:01:50.653
  • Before you reach hebron.
  • 00:01:50.653 --> 00:01:52.555
  • Okay, let's look what happened.
  • 00:01:52.555 --> 00:01:53.890
  • Verse 17, okay?
  • 00:01:53.890 --> 00:01:55.425
  • So, "he went out to meet abram
  • 00:01:55.425 --> 00:01:58.795
  • At the valley of shaveh (that is, the king's valley),
  • 00:01:58.795 --> 00:02:01.764
  • After his return from the defeat of chedorlaomer
  • 00:02:01.764 --> 00:02:05.001
  • And the kings who were with him.
  • 00:02:05.001 --> 00:02:07.804
  • Then melchizedek king of salem brought up bread and wine;
  • 00:02:07.804 --> 00:02:10.974
  • He was the priest of god most high."
  • 00:02:10.974 --> 00:02:13.710
  • Abram was tired, and abram had just been through a battle,
  • 00:02:13.710 --> 00:02:18.281
  • And now he refreshed abram with the bread and the wine.
  • 00:02:18.281 --> 00:02:22.218
  • Not only that, this is the first occurrence of melchizedek.
  • 00:02:22.218 --> 00:02:26.489
  • Let's look at the very first word
  • 00:02:26.489 --> 00:02:28.057
  • From his mouth, the next verse.
  • 00:02:28.057 --> 00:02:29.926
  • "and he blessed abram and said, 'blessed.'"
  • 00:02:29.926 --> 00:02:33.062
  • First word, "blessed."
  • 00:02:33.062 --> 00:02:35.398
  • Don't forget the ministry of our lord jesus christ
  • 00:02:35.398 --> 00:02:37.000
  • Is all about blessings.
  • 00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:38.801
  • And you cannot receive the communion
  • 00:02:38.801 --> 00:02:41.871
  • With no sense of his favor.
  • 00:02:41.871 --> 00:02:45.141
  • His favors, his goodness in your life,
  • 00:02:45.141 --> 00:02:47.210
  • Because it's called the eucharist.
  • 00:02:47.210 --> 00:02:49.012
  • You know why?
  • 00:02:49.012 --> 00:02:50.346
  • When the bible says when jesus gave thanks
  • 00:02:50.346 --> 00:02:51.914
  • For the bread and wine, the word, "give thanks"
  • 00:02:51.914 --> 00:02:54.350
  • Is the word "eucharisteo" in the greek.
  • 00:02:54.350 --> 00:02:57.854
  • "eu" is good, "charis" is grace.
  • 00:02:57.854 --> 00:03:00.456
  • Together they mean give thanks or be mindful.
  • 00:03:00.456 --> 00:03:02.992
  • The number one definition of thayer,
  • 00:03:02.992 --> 00:03:05.061
  • All right, is be mindful of his favors.
  • 00:03:05.061 --> 00:03:08.431
  • When you receive communion, all right,
  • 00:03:08.431 --> 00:03:11.901
  • Be mindful of his favors.
  • 00:03:11.901 --> 00:03:13.870
  • Don't take it legalistically.
  • 00:03:13.870 --> 00:03:16.072
  • Don't take it like magic.
  • 00:03:16.072 --> 00:03:18.975
  • Take it with spiritual intelligence.
  • 00:03:18.975 --> 00:03:21.778
  • Take it with revelation. can i have a good amen?
  • 00:03:21.778 --> 00:03:24.814
  • Now, let me just tell you something
  • 00:03:24.814 --> 00:03:26.282
  • About the bread and the wine.
  • 00:03:26.282 --> 00:03:28.818
  • The way you get bread is that you get the flour.
  • 00:03:28.818 --> 00:03:32.755
  • The flour has been beaten from the wheat stalks, right?
  • 00:03:32.755 --> 00:03:38.761
  • And after it's beaten, you pour water on it,
  • 00:03:38.761 --> 00:03:41.397
  • You think it's finished beating, but not.
  • 00:03:41.397 --> 00:03:43.333
  • All right, it's not true. you still have to beat it.
  • 00:03:43.333 --> 00:03:45.101
  • You still have to pound it.
  • 00:03:45.101 --> 00:03:46.436
  • Literally they use their fists in those days, they punch it.
  • 00:03:46.436 --> 00:03:49.472
  • This is what happened to the lord all the way
  • 00:03:49.472 --> 00:03:51.741
  • When he was arrested from gethsemane he was beaten.
  • 00:03:51.741 --> 00:03:55.411
  • To give us bread, to nourish us, he was beaten.
  • 00:03:55.411 --> 00:03:58.948
  • He was pounded.
  • 00:03:58.948 --> 00:04:00.316
  • He was turned, twisted, you know,
  • 00:04:00.316 --> 00:04:02.585
  • So that he can be the bread of life.
  • 00:04:02.585 --> 00:04:03.953
  • How do you get wine? wine is the same.
  • 00:04:03.953 --> 00:04:05.688
  • You can't just get wine from the vine, right,
  • 00:04:05.688 --> 00:04:09.158
  • From the vine tree.
  • 00:04:09.158 --> 00:04:10.493
  • You just have to bring down the wine in those--
  • 00:04:10.493 --> 00:04:12.462
  • Talking about those days, and you have to step on it.
  • 00:04:12.462 --> 00:04:15.665
  • They stepped on it.
  • 00:04:15.665 --> 00:04:16.999
  • He was kicked, he was stepped upon,
  • 00:04:16.999 --> 00:04:18.334
  • He was trodden on so that he'll become wine to us.
  • 00:04:18.334 --> 00:04:27.143
  • And to get wine you must have fermentation process,
  • 00:04:27.143 --> 00:04:30.079
  • Which is leaven.
  • 00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:32.081
  • Where do you think leaven came from?
  • 00:04:32.081 --> 00:04:33.416
  • He has no leaven.
  • 00:04:33.416 --> 00:04:34.751
  • Leaven is a picture of evil and sin.
  • 00:04:34.751 --> 00:04:36.219
  • But to get wine, grape juice must have leaven.
  • 00:04:36.219 --> 00:04:43.192
  • He came from us.
  • 00:04:43.192 --> 00:04:45.862
  • He did it for us, the moment he embraced us,
  • 00:04:45.862 --> 00:04:49.732
  • His pure blood became wine
  • 00:04:49.732 --> 00:04:55.037
  • Because it's to wash away our leaven.
  • 00:04:55.037 --> 00:04:59.842
  • So, both bread and wine is a process of crushing.
  • 00:04:59.842 --> 00:05:03.880
  • It's a picture of the cross, or else there's no drink,
  • 00:05:03.880 --> 00:05:06.549
  • There is no food.
  • 00:05:06.549 --> 00:05:08.951
  • Are you listening, people?
  • 00:05:08.951 --> 00:05:11.120
  • And if you have ears to hear, let me just tell you this.
  • 00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:13.122
  • Jesus, because this is a very difficult truth
  • 00:05:13.122 --> 00:05:16.559
  • For many people to receive.
  • 00:05:16.559 --> 00:05:17.894
  • Even during the time of christ, after he multiplied
  • 00:05:17.894 --> 00:05:19.495
  • The five loaves and two fish, he was in capernaum.
  • 00:05:19.495 --> 00:05:22.365
  • Many of you have been there, the synagogue in capernaum.
  • 00:05:22.365 --> 00:05:24.333
  • I love to be there, all right?
  • 00:05:24.333 --> 00:05:25.768
  • He was preaching this in the synagogue of capernaum.
  • 00:05:25.768 --> 00:05:27.770
  • The bible tells us, "this thing said he,
  • 00:05:27.770 --> 00:05:29.739
  • Teaching in the synagogue in capernaum.
  • 00:05:29.739 --> 00:05:31.841
  • And he told them, they said that, "our--
  • 00:05:31.841 --> 00:05:35.845
  • Moses gave our fathers bread. manna from heaven."
  • 00:05:35.845 --> 00:05:39.816
  • Jesus said, "your fathers ate bread and they died.
  • 00:05:39.816 --> 00:05:43.286
  • I am the bread of life."
  • 00:05:43.286 --> 00:05:45.354
  • And then jesus says in john 6, look at this,
  • 00:05:45.354 --> 00:05:48.157
  • "i am the living bread which came down from heaven.
  • 00:05:48.157 --> 00:05:50.660
  • If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever;
  • 00:05:50.660 --> 00:05:53.529
  • And the bread that i shall give is my flesh,
  • 00:05:53.529 --> 00:05:56.332
  • Which i shall give for the life of the world."
  • 00:05:56.332 --> 00:05:58.701
  • Now, notice here, he didn't talk about the blood.
  • 00:05:58.701 --> 00:06:01.103
  • He talked about the flesh, "which i will give
  • 00:06:01.103 --> 00:06:03.573
  • For the life."
  • 00:06:03.573 --> 00:06:05.141
  • The life here is "zoe." it is not eternal life.
  • 00:06:05.141 --> 00:06:08.010
  • In this verse, it's not eternal life.
  • 00:06:08.010 --> 00:06:09.912
  • He'll be talking in this context about eternal life
  • 00:06:09.912 --> 00:06:11.881
  • Here and there, but in this verse,
  • 00:06:11.881 --> 00:06:13.649
  • It's not about eternal life, it's about life.
  • 00:06:13.649 --> 00:06:16.519
  • The same word is used in the septuagint for adam
  • 00:06:16.519 --> 00:06:20.156
  • When god breathed into adam and adam received the life,
  • 00:06:20.156 --> 00:06:26.229
  • The zoe, to make him alive.
  • 00:06:26.229 --> 00:06:29.031
  • The word zoe, if you put aionios,
  • 00:06:29.031 --> 00:06:31.367
  • Zoe aionios, it becomes eternal life.
  • 00:06:31.367 --> 00:06:33.836
  • But if there's aionios, it means life,
  • 00:06:33.836 --> 00:06:36.472
  • Health, wholeness.
  • 00:06:36.472 --> 00:06:38.374
  • Because every part of you that's diseased and maimed
  • 00:06:38.374 --> 00:06:40.643
  • And weak and all that, feeble, is because that part,
  • 00:06:40.643 --> 00:06:43.713
  • Life is not flowing.
  • 00:06:43.713 --> 00:06:45.248
  • So, every time you take the lord's body here,
  • 00:06:45.248 --> 00:06:48.084
  • "the bread that i shall give is my flesh,
  • 00:06:48.084 --> 00:06:53.823
  • Which i will give for the health,
  • 00:06:53.823 --> 00:06:56.792
  • The life of the world," okay?
  • 00:06:56.792 --> 00:07:01.764
  • Drop down.
  • 00:07:01.764 --> 00:07:03.099
  • "for my flesh is food indeed, my blood is drink indeed."
  • 00:07:03.099 --> 00:07:07.069
  • The word "indeed" literally means "in actuality."
  • 00:07:07.069 --> 00:07:10.640
  • Now, listen, when you take the bread
  • 00:07:10.640 --> 00:07:12.041
  • And the wine every time, please don't think
  • 00:07:12.041 --> 00:07:14.110
  • Miraculously there's a transubstantiation going on.
  • 00:07:14.110 --> 00:07:17.747
  • It converts to literally the blood of jesus
  • 00:07:17.747 --> 00:07:19.482
  • And the flesh.
  • 00:07:19.482 --> 00:07:20.950
  • No, it's still symbolic.
  • 00:07:20.950 --> 00:07:22.652
  • Are you listening, people?
  • 00:07:22.652 --> 00:07:24.086
  • All right, but there's power in receiving it with revelation.
  • 00:07:24.086 --> 00:07:29.058
  • "this is my body, this is my blood,"
  • 00:07:29.058 --> 00:07:31.460
  • The lord said.
  • 00:07:31.460 --> 00:07:32.795
  • When you partake it, it--the--
  • 00:07:32.795 --> 00:07:35.331
  • All the virtues of the broken body
  • 00:07:35.331 --> 00:07:37.567
  • Is released in you.
  • 00:07:37.567 --> 00:07:40.236
  • He gave it for the life of the world.
  • 00:07:40.236 --> 00:07:42.572
  • Are you--?
  • 00:07:42.572 --> 00:07:43.906
  • Okay, so, please look at what he says, "he
  • 00:07:43.906 --> 00:07:47.443
  • Who eats my flesh and drinks my blood
  • 00:07:47.443 --> 00:07:49.679
  • Abides in me, and i in him."
  • 00:07:49.679 --> 00:07:51.080
  • Now, early on, he says that, "i'm the living bread.
  • 00:07:51.080 --> 00:07:53.683
  • If anyone feed of me, all right, he will not die."
  • 00:07:53.683 --> 00:07:56.385
  • Now, that feed is a different greek word,
  • 00:07:56.385 --> 00:07:58.220
  • Esthio, which is something you can say,
  • 00:07:58.220 --> 00:08:00.890
  • You know, generic term, esthio, you feed.
  • 00:08:00.890 --> 00:08:03.125
  • We are feeding on christ every day.
  • 00:08:03.125 --> 00:08:05.161
  • I agree with that term. but many people missed it.
  • 00:08:05.161 --> 00:08:07.863
  • They say that everything in this chapter is
  • 00:08:07.863 --> 00:08:09.865
  • About esthio, which is feeding or feeding spiritually,
  • 00:08:09.865 --> 00:08:13.569
  • It can be used as.
  • 00:08:13.569 --> 00:08:14.904
  • But over here, jesus changed the word
  • 00:08:14.904 --> 00:08:17.873
  • From the generic word, which can be used spiritually,
  • 00:08:17.873 --> 00:08:20.476
  • To a word for crunching, biting, and the word is "trogo."
  • 00:08:20.476 --> 00:08:26.048
  • "he who eats," trogo, "my flesh,"
  • 00:08:26.048 --> 00:08:28.918
  • To gnaw and to crunch.
  • 00:08:28.918 --> 00:08:30.252
  • If you look up this word, it means to crunch
  • 00:08:30.252 --> 00:08:32.521
  • Like an almond and nuts.
  • 00:08:32.521 --> 00:08:34.991
  • There's no way this is spiritual.
  • 00:08:34.991 --> 00:08:38.761
  • I said there's no way this is spiritual.
  • 00:08:38.761 --> 00:08:41.130
  • In this same chapter, he used two words, esthio.
  • 00:08:41.130 --> 00:08:43.766
  • He used esthio as a generic way.
  • 00:08:43.766 --> 00:08:45.568
  • If you feed on me, you have eternal life,
  • 00:08:45.568 --> 00:08:47.670
  • All right, that's esthio.
  • 00:08:47.670 --> 00:08:49.005
  • But when it comes to this part, trogo, he who eats,
  • 00:08:49.005 --> 00:08:52.875
  • He's talking about communion.
  • 00:08:52.875 --> 00:08:54.710
  • Because a lot of evangelical teaching
  • 00:08:54.710 --> 00:08:57.246
  • For this passage, they say that it's not communion at all.
  • 00:08:57.246 --> 00:08:59.882
  • It's all about spiritually feeding on christ,
  • 00:08:59.882 --> 00:09:02.118
  • Having eternal life.
  • 00:09:02.118 --> 00:09:03.452
  • Now, that is taught also in this passage.
  • 00:09:03.452 --> 00:09:07.056
  • But jesus actually used two words
  • 00:09:07.056 --> 00:09:09.592
  • For different purposes.
  • 00:09:09.592 --> 00:09:12.461
  • One is to talk about spiritually feeding,
  • 00:09:12.461 --> 00:09:13.996
  • Which is receiving jesus christ.
  • 00:09:13.996 --> 00:09:15.564
  • Many of you have eternal life because you've fed on him,
  • 00:09:15.564 --> 00:09:18.300
  • You trusted in him, amen?
  • 00:09:18.300 --> 00:09:20.870
  • All right, so the same thing,
  • 00:09:20.870 --> 00:09:22.505
  • All right, when he talks about, "he who eats,"
  • 00:09:22.505 --> 00:09:24.173
  • Gnaw, to crunch, "my flesh
  • 00:09:24.173 --> 00:09:25.841
  • And drinks my blood abides in me."
  • 00:09:25.841 --> 00:09:28.110
  • This is different now.
  • 00:09:28.110 --> 00:09:29.478
  • "he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood
  • 00:09:29.478 --> 00:09:31.347
  • Abides in me and i in him."
  • 00:09:31.347 --> 00:09:32.848
  • Now, for the longest time, i always, you know,
  • 00:09:32.848 --> 00:09:34.483
  • Look at john where it says, "abide in me and i in you."
  • 00:09:34.483 --> 00:09:37.987
  • That word "abide in me."
  • 00:09:37.987 --> 00:09:39.422
  • "unless a branch abide in me, he can do nothing."
  • 00:09:39.422 --> 00:09:43.492
  • Remember you read that often, right?
  • 00:09:43.492 --> 00:09:45.261
  • You ask, "how can one abide?"
  • 00:09:45.261 --> 00:09:47.430
  • That word abide, "meno," is the same word here,
  • 00:09:47.430 --> 00:09:50.633
  • Abides, meno.
  • 00:09:50.633 --> 00:09:52.935
  • Same word.
  • 00:09:52.935 --> 00:09:54.270
  • And it's telling us that when you take communion,
  • 00:09:54.270 --> 00:09:58.874
  • You abide, and the tense there is an active, which means
  • 00:09:58.874 --> 00:10:02.078
  • You actually manifest him.
  • 00:10:02.078 --> 00:10:05.581
  • He abides in you in a practical way
  • 00:10:05.581 --> 00:10:07.383
  • And you in him in a most practical way.
  • 00:10:07.383 --> 00:10:12.988
  • Are you listening, people?
  • 00:10:12.988 --> 00:10:14.924
  • The manifestation, hallelujah.
  • 00:10:14.924 --> 00:10:20.963
  • "as the living father sent me,
  • 00:10:20.963 --> 00:10:22.331
  • And i live because of the father,
  • 00:10:22.331 --> 00:10:23.699
  • So he who chews on me," gnaw, trogo, crunch on me,
  • 00:10:23.699 --> 00:10:29.772
  • "will live because of me."
  • 00:10:29.772 --> 00:10:32.908
  • Well, that puts communion in a different light.
  • 00:10:32.908 --> 00:10:36.312
  • Years ago, i remember that in 2003,
  • 00:10:36.312 --> 00:10:39.582
  • We went for our israel trip.
  • 00:10:39.582 --> 00:10:42.051
  • And it was one of those trips that we had many people
  • 00:10:42.051 --> 00:10:43.786
  • From our church going back to back.
  • 00:10:43.786 --> 00:10:46.155
  • And what happened was this, i went with my leaders
  • 00:10:46.155 --> 00:10:48.491
  • And the pastors, pastor lawrence
  • 00:10:48.491 --> 00:10:50.259
  • And all the other pastors, we all went earlier.
  • 00:10:50.259 --> 00:10:54.730
  • And then during our trip, our journey somewhere,
  • 00:10:54.730 --> 00:10:59.568
  • We received a call that one of our flights
  • 00:10:59.568 --> 00:11:03.639
  • Just landed at tel aviv and there was an emergency.
  • 00:11:03.639 --> 00:11:08.010
  • A girl who was at that time just married,
  • 00:11:08.010 --> 00:11:11.881
  • And she actually went unconscious,
  • 00:11:11.881 --> 00:11:16.852
  • Foaming at the mouth, which later on
  • 00:11:16.852 --> 00:11:19.321
  • The doctors said she was suffering
  • 00:11:19.321 --> 00:11:20.656
  • From deep vein thrombosis.
  • 00:11:20.656 --> 00:11:22.992
  • You heard of that?
  • 00:11:22.992 --> 00:11:24.326
  • Where, you know, there's a clot, a blood clot.
  • 00:11:24.326 --> 00:11:26.796
  • The israeli paramedics were there at the airport
  • 00:11:26.796 --> 00:11:29.598
  • And they brought her and actually she died.
  • 00:11:29.598 --> 00:11:32.001
  • Her heart stopped.
  • 00:11:32.001 --> 00:11:33.536
  • They resuscitated her, okay, and by then,
  • 00:11:33.536 --> 00:11:36.839
  • When they took an x-ray of her chest
  • 00:11:36.839 --> 00:11:38.641
  • And all that, they found that there was massive clots
  • 00:11:38.641 --> 00:11:41.010
  • In her right ventricle of the heart.
  • 00:11:41.010 --> 00:11:43.445
  • And also massive clots in her lungs.
  • 00:11:43.445 --> 00:11:46.782
  • And the doctor says she cannot survive.
  • 00:11:46.782 --> 00:11:49.285
  • This was said.
  • 00:11:49.285 --> 00:11:50.686
  • She won't be able to survive.
  • 00:11:50.686 --> 00:11:52.454
  • Moreover, she has been too long without oxygen to her brain.
  • 00:11:52.454 --> 00:11:57.393
  • So, that's what they told us.
  • 00:11:57.393 --> 00:11:58.727
  • And i was like miles away somewhere else,
  • 00:11:58.727 --> 00:12:00.930
  • Away from tel aviv.
  • 00:12:00.930 --> 00:12:02.264
  • We were already having our tour in the midst of our tour.
  • 00:12:02.264 --> 00:12:04.967
  • So, i told the pastors and, "hey, guys,
  • 00:12:04.967 --> 00:12:08.204
  • I think let's go visit her."
  • 00:12:08.204 --> 00:12:10.840
  • And we stopped over, and samuel smadja,
  • 00:12:10.840 --> 00:12:14.243
  • My israeli friend was there and he helped us
  • 00:12:14.243 --> 00:12:17.580
  • Get some communion elements, okay?
  • 00:12:17.580 --> 00:12:20.416
  • So, we went to the tel aviv hospital
  • 00:12:20.416 --> 00:12:22.618
  • And when we were there, because of the way
  • 00:12:22.618 --> 00:12:27.389
  • It was done and all that, okay, we were there
  • 00:12:27.389 --> 00:12:30.960
  • And she's been unconscious at that time for six days
  • 00:12:30.960 --> 00:12:34.029
  • Already, all right?
  • 00:12:34.029 --> 00:12:35.631
  • We were somewhere else at the time when it happened,
  • 00:12:35.631 --> 00:12:37.466
  • And they prayed for her.
  • 00:12:37.466 --> 00:12:38.801
  • They prayed for her a few days after that,
  • 00:12:38.801 --> 00:12:40.202
  • The husband prayed, the leader that was involved
  • 00:12:40.202 --> 00:12:42.571
  • In that group prayed, but there was no result.
  • 00:12:42.571 --> 00:12:44.907
  • It was worse and worse.
  • 00:12:44.907 --> 00:12:46.242
  • She was been in a coma for six days by the time
  • 00:12:46.242 --> 00:12:51.614
  • We were at the hospital.
  • 00:12:51.614 --> 00:12:53.616
  • Somewhere fourth, fifth day, i felt the lord telling me,
  • 00:12:53.616 --> 00:12:57.319
  • Usually, you know, you don't need pastor prince.
  • 00:12:57.319 --> 00:12:59.722
  • How many understand that? you don't need the pastors.
  • 00:12:59.722 --> 00:13:02.191
  • You know, if we are somewhere else,
  • 00:13:02.191 --> 00:13:03.592
  • There's a leader in every group,
  • 00:13:03.592 --> 00:13:05.661
  • And there are people who know how to pray.
  • 00:13:05.661 --> 00:13:07.730
  • Sometimes i fear that you all think
  • 00:13:07.730 --> 00:13:09.064
  • That in the name of joseph prince, it happens.
  • 00:13:09.064 --> 00:13:11.734
  • It does not.
  • 00:13:11.734 --> 00:13:13.068
  • Look at me, look at me, come on, seriously?
  • 00:13:13.068 --> 00:13:16.739
  • All right, look at pastor lawrence, come on.
  • 00:13:16.739 --> 00:13:20.976
  • It's in the name of?
  • 00:13:20.976 --> 00:13:23.112
  • Yeah, and we have people in groups and all that
  • 00:13:23.112 --> 00:13:25.814
  • Led by pastors, led by deacons, led by leaders,
  • 00:13:25.814 --> 00:13:30.219
  • Led by care leaders, led by believers
  • 00:13:30.219 --> 00:13:34.189
  • Who know how to pray in the name of jesus.
  • 00:13:34.189 --> 00:13:36.458
  • So, when it came to the fifth day,
  • 00:13:36.458 --> 00:13:39.361
  • I think it was the fifth day, i realized there's no result,
  • 00:13:39.361 --> 00:13:41.597
  • It's getting worse.
  • 00:13:41.597 --> 00:13:42.932
  • So, i felt the lord telling me to have communion over her.
  • 00:13:42.932 --> 00:13:47.836
  • So, we got some of the communion elements
  • 00:13:47.836 --> 00:13:49.972
  • From my friend, samuel, and we went to the hospital.
  • 00:13:49.972 --> 00:13:54.977
  • A few of us, pastor lawrence was there.
  • 00:13:54.977 --> 00:13:56.912
  • We stepped in.
  • 00:13:56.912 --> 00:13:58.647
  • And the sight was actually, in the natural,
  • 00:13:58.647 --> 00:14:01.717
  • Very discouraging.
  • 00:14:01.717 --> 00:14:03.052
  • She looked bloated.
  • 00:14:03.052 --> 00:14:04.687
  • She looked swollen, all right, there are tubes
  • 00:14:04.687 --> 00:14:06.956
  • Almost coming out
  • 00:14:06.956 --> 00:14:08.290
  • From different places of her face.
  • 00:14:08.290 --> 00:14:11.694
  • And pastor lawrence told me later on
  • 00:14:11.694 --> 00:14:15.664
  • That, "i know the bible says watch and pray,
  • 00:14:15.664 --> 00:14:17.199
  • But i cannot watch," he said.
  • 00:14:17.199 --> 00:14:19.268
  • He had to close his eyes during prayer.
  • 00:14:19.268 --> 00:14:20.970
  • So, we all had communion, plus the husband.
  • 00:14:20.970 --> 00:14:23.739
  • We all had communion around her.
  • 00:14:23.739 --> 00:14:26.809
  • And we just declare that by the broken body of jesus
  • 00:14:26.809 --> 00:14:31.046
  • Life is released into her.
  • 00:14:31.046 --> 00:14:33.515
  • That's all we did. we had communion, okay?
  • 00:14:33.515 --> 00:14:35.851
  • We didn't cast out devils, we didn't do nothing,
  • 00:14:35.851 --> 00:14:38.020
  • All right, of that sort.
  • 00:14:38.020 --> 00:14:39.355
  • I'm not saying that that's wrong.
  • 00:14:39.355 --> 00:14:40.689
  • If the lord leads you, go ahead,
  • 00:14:40.689 --> 00:14:42.024
  • But we just had communion over her.
  • 00:14:42.024 --> 00:14:44.793
  • And then we continued our trip because she was unconscious
  • 00:14:44.793 --> 00:14:47.629
  • For six days already.
  • 00:14:47.629 --> 00:14:49.465
  • We heard the very next day, the very next day, she woke up.
  • 00:14:49.465 --> 00:14:55.571
  • And then they tested her, and they cannot find
  • 00:14:55.571 --> 00:15:00.109
  • Any trace of the clot.
  • 00:15:00.109 --> 00:15:03.445
  • Now, that's in my book on the power of holy communion.
  • 00:15:03.445 --> 00:15:09.952
  • Today, she's a happy mother in our church,
  • 00:15:09.952 --> 00:15:12.321
  • A mother of two now.
  • 00:15:12.321 --> 00:15:13.922
  • And, you know what she did after that?
  • 00:15:13.922 --> 00:15:15.591
  • The very next day she woke up, all right.
  • 00:15:15.591 --> 00:15:17.659
  • Her first-- one of the things
  • 00:15:17.659 --> 00:15:19.495
  • That she said that she wants to continue her trip.
  • 00:15:19.495 --> 00:15:22.564
  • So, after she was dismissed from the hospital,
  • 00:15:22.564 --> 00:15:25.667
  • Or after they do all the checks and all that, she was dismissed.
  • 00:15:25.667 --> 00:15:28.070
  • She joined the next group.
  • 00:15:28.070 --> 00:15:30.773
  • And her first trip was over at the garden tomb, amen?
  • 00:15:30.773 --> 00:15:36.011
  • Amazing lady.
  • 00:15:36.011 --> 00:15:37.346
  • The next year she went again for another trip, all right?
  • 00:15:37.346 --> 00:15:41.250
  • So, i wish that every case is as dramatic as this,
  • 00:15:41.250 --> 00:15:44.086
  • But i'll just tell you this, many-a-times
  • 00:15:44.086 --> 00:15:46.422
  • When you take communion, you know, sometimes
  • 00:15:46.422 --> 00:15:48.390
  • The pressure is on us to like, you know,
  • 00:15:48.390 --> 00:15:50.025
  • Mark 11:24, believe you receive,
  • 00:15:50.025 --> 00:15:51.727
  • And from now on, don't doubt, you know,
  • 00:15:51.727 --> 00:15:54.363
  • You believe you have received, but sometimes that puts pressure
  • 00:15:54.363 --> 00:15:56.665
  • On people who feel that their faith
  • 00:15:56.665 --> 00:15:58.901
  • Is not there altogether.
  • 00:15:58.901 --> 00:16:00.969
  • Thank god for mark 11:24, but god has
  • 00:16:00.969 --> 00:16:02.604
  • Different delivery systems as well, all right?
  • 00:16:02.604 --> 00:16:06.108
  • And one of them is that people can do this.
  • 00:16:06.108 --> 00:16:08.177
  • Some people can go to surgery
  • 00:16:08.177 --> 00:16:09.511
  • And believe god to-- that god will bless the surgery
  • 00:16:09.511 --> 00:16:13.348
  • To be a successful one.
  • 00:16:13.348 --> 00:16:15.851
  • Some can take communion, and every time
  • 00:16:15.851 --> 00:16:18.754
  • They take communion, they believe
  • 00:16:18.754 --> 00:16:20.222
  • That they're improving.
  • 00:16:20.222 --> 00:16:21.690
  • They're getting better.
  • 00:16:21.690 --> 00:16:23.258
  • Now, this to me is one of the most powerful ways
  • 00:16:23.258 --> 00:16:25.627
  • Of healing.
  • 00:16:25.627 --> 00:16:27.229
  • In fact, john g. lake, a healing evangelist,
  • 00:16:27.229 --> 00:16:30.532
  • He said that this kind of healing is better.
  • 00:16:30.532 --> 00:16:34.203
  • For some reason, he said it's better
  • 00:16:34.203 --> 00:16:35.537
  • Than the ones you get instantaneously.
  • 00:16:35.537 --> 00:16:37.606
  • Many-a-times this kind of healing
  • 00:16:37.606 --> 00:16:38.941
  • Causes people to have character,
  • 00:16:38.941 --> 00:16:41.243
  • All right, built in them, whereas the other one,
  • 00:16:41.243 --> 00:16:42.845
  • When they receive instantly, they can go back
  • 00:16:42.845 --> 00:16:44.279
  • To their worldly life.
  • 00:16:44.279 --> 00:16:46.181
  • So, that's what john g. lake says.
  • 00:16:46.181 --> 00:16:47.516
  • But for me, many of the healings that i've experienced in my life
  • 00:16:47.516 --> 00:16:50.385
  • Has not been instantaneous.
  • 00:16:50.385 --> 00:16:52.121
  • Like some of you heard me share
  • 00:16:52.121 --> 00:16:53.455
  • That i have a skin condition for the longest time on my back.
  • 00:16:53.455 --> 00:16:58.227
  • You know, i have a world vision,
  • 00:16:58.227 --> 00:16:59.761
  • So there are mission places that i put behind my back.
  • 00:16:59.761 --> 00:17:03.332
  • I got the world on my back, you know what i'm saying?
  • 00:17:03.332 --> 00:17:05.167
  • You know, and it looks bad, and every time i sweat
  • 00:17:05.167 --> 00:17:09.705
  • When i exercise or play soccer, you know,
  • 00:17:09.705 --> 00:17:11.673
  • It will really aggravate me.
  • 00:17:11.673 --> 00:17:13.041
  • And i can look at the mirror and, you know,
  • 00:17:13.041 --> 00:17:14.710
  • There's a map there.
  • 00:17:14.710 --> 00:17:16.145
  • I don't know if singapore is there,
  • 00:17:16.145 --> 00:17:17.479
  • But there are some spots.
  • 00:17:17.479 --> 00:17:20.048
  • I just began taking communion for it, okay?
  • 00:17:20.048 --> 00:17:23.051
  • Again, this is one great instance where,
  • 00:17:23.051 --> 00:17:26.522
  • To illustrate this, that i didn't know when i was healed.
  • 00:17:26.522 --> 00:17:30.192
  • But one day as i was changing my clothes,
  • 00:17:30.192 --> 00:17:32.127
  • All right, i heard a voice inside me.
  • 00:17:32.127 --> 00:17:33.762
  • Actually, when you change, you don't look
  • 00:17:33.762 --> 00:17:35.097
  • Behind your back, you know what i'm saying, right?
  • 00:17:35.097 --> 00:17:36.632
  • Many of you do, lah, you know, you look behind,
  • 00:17:36.632 --> 00:17:39.168
  • "whoah, i look good from the back also, you know?"
  • 00:17:39.168 --> 00:17:41.436
  • But i usually look at the front.
  • 00:17:41.436 --> 00:17:42.804
  • So, i don't know when it happened,
  • 00:17:42.804 --> 00:17:44.973
  • But i heard a voice saying, "look at your back."
  • 00:17:44.973 --> 00:17:47.109
  • So, i looked at my back, and man, the whole thing
  • 00:17:47.109 --> 00:17:49.912
  • Was gone.
  • 00:17:49.912 --> 00:17:51.246
  • I have this affliction for years, for years,
  • 00:17:51.246 --> 00:17:53.715
  • But the whole thing was gone.
  • 00:17:53.715 --> 00:17:56.552
  • So, i don't know when it happened, you know?
  • 00:17:56.552 --> 00:17:59.721
  • Was it the supplements i took? was it this?
  • 00:17:59.721 --> 00:18:02.291
  • But i just stopped myself. no, no, no, no, no.
  • 00:18:02.291 --> 00:18:04.159
  • Wait a minute, you took communion.
  • 00:18:04.159 --> 00:18:06.461
  • By the way, if you're on medication,
  • 00:18:06.461 --> 00:18:08.363
  • Please continue your medication.
  • 00:18:08.363 --> 00:18:10.199
  • Your medication works so much better
  • 00:18:10.199 --> 00:18:12.000
  • With the communion.
  • 00:18:12.000 --> 00:18:14.469
  • But the thing is that many people,
  • 00:18:14.469 --> 00:18:15.804
  • They have more respect for medication,
  • 00:18:15.804 --> 00:18:19.374
  • They have more respect for radiation,
  • 00:18:19.374 --> 00:18:21.910
  • They have more respect for all these things
  • 00:18:21.910 --> 00:18:23.478
  • Than a piece of bread, and a cup.
  • 00:18:23.478 --> 00:18:27.849
  • And they say, "what can this do?"
  • 00:18:27.849 --> 00:18:29.918
  • They don't realize it is god's ways of choosing
  • 00:18:29.918 --> 00:18:33.288
  • Weak things to put to naught things that are,
  • 00:18:33.288 --> 00:18:36.692
  • Like cancer or whatever.
  • 00:18:36.692 --> 00:18:38.193
  • It's god's ways.
  • 00:18:38.193 --> 00:18:40.128
  • Especially when it reminds god of his son.
  • 00:18:40.128 --> 00:18:42.864
  • In fact, jesus says, "do this in remembrance of me."
  • 00:18:42.864 --> 00:18:46.101
  • I just want to say once again, all right?
  • 00:18:46.101 --> 00:18:48.303
  • Not every case is like this.
  • 00:18:48.303 --> 00:18:50.739
  • But many-a-times, you may even have to persevere,
  • 00:18:50.739 --> 00:18:53.275
  • Taking communion.
  • 00:18:53.275 --> 00:18:54.910
  • Take it like medicine, three times a day if you want.
  • 00:18:54.910 --> 00:18:58.280
  • If the case is acute, all right, it's an intense case,
  • 00:18:58.280 --> 00:19:03.252
  • Whatever it is, all right, take communion.
  • 00:19:03.252 --> 00:19:05.921
  • And if someone says, "you can only take communion
  • 00:19:05.921 --> 00:19:07.789
  • If a pastor does it," no, no, no, that's tradition.
  • 00:19:07.789 --> 00:19:11.193
  • You can do it.
  • 00:19:11.193 --> 00:19:12.527
  • In fact, the lord loves it because "do this
  • 00:19:12.527 --> 00:19:14.263
  • In remembrance of me," he said.
  • 00:19:14.263 --> 00:19:15.964
  • When you think about communion
  • 00:19:15.964 --> 00:19:17.299
  • And the emphasis the lord placed on it,
  • 00:19:17.299 --> 00:19:19.067
  • In the synoptic gospels, every one
  • 00:19:19.067 --> 00:19:20.836
  • Of the synoptic gospels talk about communion,
  • 00:19:20.836 --> 00:19:23.905
  • Talk about the lord's supper.
  • 00:19:23.905 --> 00:19:25.741
  • And yet, jesus thought it was so important
  • 00:19:25.741 --> 00:19:29.678
  • To tell paul directly.
  • 00:19:29.678 --> 00:19:33.882
  • "for i received from the lord that which i
  • 00:19:33.882 --> 00:19:36.084
  • Also delivered to you: that the lord jesus
  • 00:19:36.084 --> 00:19:38.887
  • On the same night in which he was betrayed
  • 00:19:38.887 --> 00:19:40.656
  • Took bread; when he had given thanks,
  • 00:19:40.656 --> 00:19:43.458
  • He broke it and said, 'take eat; this is my body,
  • 00:19:43.458 --> 00:19:45.661
  • Which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of me."
  • 00:19:45.661 --> 00:19:49.765
  • You know how often can we remember the lord?
  • 00:19:49.765 --> 00:19:53.735
  • Think about that, all right?
  • 00:19:53.735 --> 00:19:56.004
  • Don't--you say, "but pastor prince,
  • 00:19:56.004 --> 00:19:57.372
  • If i do it every day, it becomes a ritual."
  • 00:19:57.372 --> 00:19:59.408
  • Then don't do it every day, okay, if it's a ritual to you.
  • 00:19:59.408 --> 00:20:03.245
  • But, really, honestly, last week i showed you all my boy, right?
  • 00:20:03.245 --> 00:20:08.016
  • I never get tired of showing it.
  • 00:20:08.016 --> 00:20:09.851
  • I know some of you get, "oh no, justin again."
  • 00:20:09.851 --> 00:20:12.020
  • You know, but for me, i just love looking at justin.
  • 00:20:12.020 --> 00:20:14.690
  • Just--i see justin every day, almost every day i see him.
  • 00:20:14.690 --> 00:20:18.727
  • All right, unless i'm somewhere,
  • 00:20:18.727 --> 00:20:20.128
  • You know, in the world, but i get to see him every day,
  • 00:20:20.128 --> 00:20:22.831
  • Yet i love to look at his videos.
  • 00:20:22.831 --> 00:20:24.800
  • I love to, you know, look at him again and again,
  • 00:20:24.800 --> 00:20:28.270
  • Especially with someone you love.
  • 00:20:28.270 --> 00:20:31.106
  • "do this--you know.
  • 00:20:31.106 --> 00:20:32.441
  • So, for you to say, "you know, pastor, it becomes a ritual."
  • 00:20:32.441 --> 00:20:34.042
  • I wonder what you're doing it for.
  • 00:20:34.042 --> 00:20:36.411
  • Are you doing it, you know, mindful of him,
  • 00:20:36.411 --> 00:20:39.181
  • Or are you conscious of your condition?
  • 00:20:39.181 --> 00:20:43.885
  • You see, even communion, don't forget the lord said,
  • 00:20:43.885 --> 00:20:47.089
  • "drink from it."
  • 00:20:47.089 --> 00:20:48.423
  • He took the cup, gave thanks, and said, "drink from it.
  • 00:20:48.423 --> 00:20:49.891
  • This is my blood of the new covenant which is shed
  • 00:20:49.891 --> 00:20:52.160
  • For many for the remission of sins."
  • 00:20:52.160 --> 00:20:54.629
  • In other words, your consciousness must be,
  • 00:20:54.629 --> 00:20:56.498
  • When you take the cup, it's not to confess your sins,
  • 00:20:56.498 --> 00:20:58.800
  • Start digging for your sins.
  • 00:20:58.800 --> 00:21:00.135
  • It's not a time of sin consciousness.
  • 00:21:00.135 --> 00:21:02.404
  • It's a time of being conscious your sins are remitted.
  • 00:21:02.404 --> 00:21:08.276
  • That is partaking worthily.
  • 00:21:08.276 --> 00:21:10.512
  • Go back to 1 corinthians 11, all right.
  • 00:21:10.512 --> 00:21:12.948
  • Next verse, drop down.
  • 00:21:12.948 --> 00:21:14.383
  • "in the same manner he also took the cup."
  • 00:21:14.383 --> 00:21:16.551
  • All right, you all know this, this cup, okay,
  • 00:21:16.551 --> 00:21:18.253
  • Let's drop to verse 26.
  • 00:21:18.253 --> 00:21:19.788
  • "for as often as you eat this bread
  • 00:21:19.788 --> 00:21:21.123
  • And drink this cup, you proclaim
  • 00:21:21.123 --> 00:21:22.724
  • The lord's death till he comes."
  • 00:21:22.724 --> 00:21:25.994
  • Every time someone kills a burnt offering,
  • 00:21:25.994 --> 00:21:28.663
  • Offers it on the altar, victory is accomplished,
  • 00:21:28.663 --> 00:21:32.501
  • Favor is shown, in the old testament.
  • 00:21:32.501 --> 00:21:35.604
  • You know, the philistines were coming really close.
  • 00:21:35.604 --> 00:21:38.240
  • Israel cried out to prophet samuel.
  • 00:21:38.240 --> 00:21:40.542
  • He took a young suckling lamb, killed it,
  • 00:21:40.542 --> 00:21:43.078
  • And god thundered from heaven and discomfited the philistines.
  • 00:21:43.078 --> 00:21:48.450
  • You're proclaiming the lord's death.
  • 00:21:48.450 --> 00:21:50.585
  • Every time you proclaim the lord's death,
  • 00:21:50.585 --> 00:21:53.054
  • Amen, your enemies that are attacking you
  • 00:21:53.054 --> 00:21:55.157
  • At that moment are defeated.
  • 00:21:55.157 --> 00:21:58.126
  • For as often as you eat this bread,
  • 00:21:58.126 --> 00:21:59.494
  • You proclaim, okay?
  • 00:21:59.494 --> 00:22:00.829
  • Next, drop down.
  • 00:22:00.829 --> 00:22:02.164
  • "he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner."
  • 00:22:02.164 --> 00:22:04.132
  • It's the manner.
  • 00:22:04.132 --> 00:22:05.467
  • In other words, when you eat and drink,
  • 00:22:05.467 --> 00:22:07.636
  • Make sure you eat knowing that it is his body
  • 00:22:07.636 --> 00:22:12.040
  • That has borne away your diseases.
  • 00:22:12.040 --> 00:22:13.675
  • That's worthy of him.
  • 00:22:13.675 --> 00:22:15.911
  • When you drink the cup, you are conscious your sins
  • 00:22:15.911 --> 00:22:18.146
  • Are remitted, that's worthy of him.
  • 00:22:18.146 --> 00:22:20.515
  • But if you partake, conscious of your sickness,
  • 00:22:20.515 --> 00:22:22.884
  • That's not worthy of the bread.
  • 00:22:22.884 --> 00:22:24.786
  • I mean you--if you partake and you're conscious of sins
  • 00:22:24.786 --> 00:22:27.255
  • All the time, confessing your sins,
  • 00:22:27.255 --> 00:22:29.391
  • Digging your heart for your sins,
  • 00:22:29.391 --> 00:22:31.092
  • You're not conscious it's remitted.
  • 00:22:31.092 --> 00:22:34.763
  • Now you are guilty of the body and the blood of the lord.
  • 00:22:34.763 --> 00:22:37.966
  • Are you listening, people?
  • 00:22:37.966 --> 00:22:40.402
  • Hm, all right?
  • 00:22:40.402 --> 00:22:42.337
  • Now, all this is in my teaching,
  • 00:22:42.337 --> 00:22:43.672
  • But look at this, "not discerning the lord's body."
  • 00:22:43.672 --> 00:22:47.242
  • Not discerning the lord's body.
  • 00:22:47.242 --> 00:22:49.978
  • "for this reason many are weak and sick among you,
  • 00:22:49.978 --> 00:22:52.414
  • And many sleep."
  • 00:22:52.414 --> 00:22:53.748
  • Again, i kind of wish that it's not many,
  • 00:22:53.748 --> 00:22:56.651
  • But many are weak in the church.
  • 00:22:56.651 --> 00:22:58.753
  • Many are weak, many are sick,
  • 00:22:58.753 --> 00:23:01.356
  • And many die before their time, all right?
  • 00:23:01.356 --> 00:23:03.925
  • Many sleep. for what reason?
  • 00:23:03.925 --> 00:23:05.527
  • For this reason, not discerning the lord's body.
  • 00:23:05.527 --> 00:23:08.597
  • And the word discerning is "diakrino,"
  • 00:23:08.597 --> 00:23:10.131
  • Which is make a difference.
  • 00:23:10.131 --> 00:23:11.466
  • Make a difference between the cup
  • 00:23:11.466 --> 00:23:13.201
  • And the bread, and don't just lump them together.
  • 00:23:13.201 --> 00:23:16.137
