- He said this to me, years ago. we moved in in 2012, end of
- 00:02:16.412 --> 00:02:20.049
- 2012, and those years before
- 00:02:20.116 --> 00:02:22.552

- 00:02:24.020 --> 00:02:26.055
- Of--let me just tell you this, it's not easy, all right?
- 00:02:26.122 --> 00:02:28.625
- It's not easy, all right? it could kill an average person
- 00:02:28.691 --> 00:02:30.693
- It could kill an average person just with stress alone at what
- 00:02:30.760 --> 00:02:33.296
- Just with stress alone at what we were supposed to even raise,
- 00:02:33.363 --> 00:02:35.732
- We were supposed to even raise, and all the different hiccups
- 00:02:35.798 --> 00:02:38.534

- 00:02:38.601 --> 00:02:40.336

- How one thing led to another, unforeseen things and all that.
- 00:02:42.972 --> 00:02:44.374
- Unforeseen things and all that. but all the while, god gave me
- 00:02:44.440 --> 00:02:45.408
- But all the while, god gave me a word.
- 00:02:45.475 --> 00:02:46.709
- A word. two words, actually.
- 00:02:46.776 --> 00:02:48.177
- Two words, actually. number one, while we are going
- 00:02:48.244 --> 00:02:49.746
- Number one, while we are going through the process, he says,
- 00:02:49.812 --> 00:02:51.214
- Through the process, he says, "sit still.
- 00:02:51.281 --> 00:02:54.617
- "sit still. sit still until you know how the
- 00:02:54.684 --> 00:02:56.386
- Sit still until you know how the matter will recover.
- 00:02:56.452 --> 00:02:58.454
- Matter will recover. for the man, the lord jesus at
- 00:02:58.521 --> 00:03:01.190
- For the man, the lord jesus at the father's right hand, will
- 00:03:01.257 --> 00:03:03.259
- The father's right hand, will not be at rest until he has
- 00:03:03.326 --> 00:03:05.995
- Not be at rest until he has finished it."
- 00:03:06.062 --> 00:03:08.164
- Finished it." and that is a word from the book
- 00:03:08.231 --> 00:03:10.633
- And that is a word from the book of ruth.
- 00:03:10.700 --> 00:03:12.068
- Of ruth. when naomi, the mother-in-law,
- 00:03:12.135 --> 00:03:13.803
- When naomi, the mother-in-law, turned to the daughter-in-law,
- 00:03:13.870 --> 00:03:17.774
- Turned to the daughter-in-law, the gentile girl from moab,
- 00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:20.176
- The gentile girl from moab, jordan, because she believed in
- 00:03:20.243 --> 00:03:22.712
- Jordan, because she believed in the god of naomi.
- 00:03:22.779 --> 00:03:24.914
- The god of naomi. she says, "your god will be
- 00:03:24.981 --> 00:03:26.215
- She says, "your god will be my god.
- 00:03:26.282 --> 00:03:27.250
- My god. your people will be my people.
- 00:03:27.317 --> 00:03:29.285
- Your people will be my people. where you die, i will die."
- 00:03:29.352 --> 00:03:31.220
- Where you die, i will die." imagine a daughter-in-law saying
- 00:03:31.287 --> 00:03:32.655
- Imagine a daughter-in-law saying that to the mother-in-law.
- 00:03:32.722 --> 00:03:35.591
- That to the mother-in-law. and she became one of the
- 00:03:35.658 --> 00:03:37.894
- And she became one of the ancestors of our
- 00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:38.761
- Ancestors of our lord jesus christ.
- 00:03:38.828 --> 00:03:40.997
- Lord jesus christ. our lord jesus came from her
- 00:03:41.064 --> 00:03:42.532
- Our lord jesus came from her line, from her lineage.
- 00:03:42.598 --> 00:03:46.235
- Line, from her lineage. and that's what naomi, her
- 00:03:46.302 --> 00:03:48.471
- And that's what naomi, her mother-in-law, advised her about
- 00:03:48.538 --> 00:03:51.207
- Mother-in-law, advised her about the man who owned the field, a
- 00:03:51.274 --> 00:03:52.875
- The man who owned the field, a picture of our
- 00:03:52.942 --> 00:03:54.043
- Picture of our lord jesus christ,
- 00:03:54.110 --> 00:03:54.677
- Lord jesus christ, the wealthy man called boaz.
- 00:03:54.744 --> 00:03:56.245
- The wealthy man called boaz. she says, "sit still,
- 00:03:56.312 --> 00:03:58.181
- She says, "sit still, my daughter.
- 00:03:58.247 --> 00:03:59.315
- My daughter. don't run about, don't be
- 00:03:59.382 --> 00:04:00.983
- Don't run about, don't be stressed, don't worry.
- 00:04:01.050 --> 00:04:02.618
- Stressed, don't worry. don't worry about even
- 00:04:02.685 --> 00:04:03.252
- Don't worry about even competition with other ladies
- 00:04:03.319 --> 00:04:04.754
- Competition with other ladies and all that.
- 00:04:04.821 --> 00:04:05.888
- And all that. sit still until you know how the
- 00:04:05.955 --> 00:04:08.091
- Sit still until you know how the matter will fall because the man
- 00:04:08.157 --> 00:04:11.027
- Matter will fall because the man will not be at rest until he
- 00:04:11.094 --> 00:04:14.163
- Will not be at rest until he has finished."
- 00:04:14.230 --> 00:04:16.232
- Has finished." so if you sit still, if you
- 00:04:16.299 --> 00:04:17.667
- So if you sit still, if you rest, he will not be at rest
- 00:04:17.734 --> 00:04:19.335
- Rest, he will not be at rest concerning your affairs.
- 00:04:19.402 --> 00:04:21.537
- Concerning your affairs. that means he will be
- 00:04:21.604 --> 00:04:23.172
- That means he will be working, amen?
- 00:04:23.239 --> 00:04:24.741
- Working, amen? that's when god began to show me
- 00:04:24.807 --> 00:04:25.842
- That's when god began to show me even clearer that when you rest,
- 00:04:25.908 --> 00:04:27.677
- Even clearer that when you rest, god works.
- 00:04:27.744 --> 00:04:29.645
- God works. now if you are working, no point
- 00:04:29.712 --> 00:04:31.881
- Now if you are working, no point in god saying, "no point in both
- 00:04:31.948 --> 00:04:33.116
- In god saying, "no point in both of us working, okay?
- 00:04:33.182 --> 00:04:35.017
- Of us working, okay? because even if i help you, you
- 00:04:35.084 --> 00:04:36.052
- Because even if i help you, you will think it's you.
- 00:04:36.119 --> 00:04:38.354
- Will think it's you. you'll give part of the glory to
- 00:04:38.421 --> 00:04:39.455
- You'll give part of the glory to me and part of the glory
- 00:04:39.522 --> 00:04:40.256
- Me and part of the glory to you."
- 00:04:40.323 --> 00:04:41.557
- To you." no, god must have all the
- 00:04:41.624 --> 00:04:43.226
- No, god must have all the glory, amen?
- 00:04:43.292 --> 00:04:44.827
- Glory, amen? so i always say, if god wants to
- 00:04:44.894 --> 00:04:46.462
- So i always say, if god wants to have all the glory, let god do
- 00:04:46.529 --> 00:04:47.897
- Have all the glory, let god do all the work, amen, and that's
- 00:04:47.964 --> 00:04:50.867
- All the work, amen, and that's our true posture.
- 00:04:50.933 --> 00:04:51.868
- Our true posture. our life is to bring glory
- 00:04:51.934 --> 00:04:53.236
- Our life is to bring glory to god.
- 00:04:53.302 --> 00:04:54.137
- To god. but we are so proud, aren't we?
- 00:04:54.203 --> 00:04:55.738
- But we are so proud, aren't we? we creatures are so proud.
- 00:04:55.805 --> 00:04:57.974
- We creatures are so proud. we always want to
- 00:04:58.040 --> 00:04:59.008
- We always want to have something.
- 00:04:59.075 --> 00:04:59.742
- Have something. we always want to do something.
- 00:04:59.809 --> 00:05:01.677
- We always want to do something. so when we rest, it is
- 00:05:01.744 --> 00:05:03.946
- So when we rest, it is not laziness.
- 00:05:04.013 --> 00:05:05.348
- Not laziness. it's not passivity.
- 00:05:05.415 --> 00:05:06.682
- It's not passivity. it is actually acknowledging god
- 00:05:06.749 --> 00:05:10.820
- It is actually acknowledging god is the only one who can bring
- 00:05:10.887 --> 00:05:13.923
- Is the only one who can bring an end to this affair, who can
- 00:05:13.990 --> 00:05:16.192
- An end to this affair, who can finish this thing, amen, who can
- 00:05:16.259 --> 00:05:19.095
- Finish this thing, amen, who can bring a successful outcome.
- 00:05:19.162 --> 00:05:20.329
- Bring a successful outcome. so, that was the word god
- 00:05:20.396 --> 00:05:21.230
- So, that was the word god gave me, there's one word,
- 00:05:21.297 --> 00:05:22.598
- Gave me, there's one word, and it brought
- 00:05:22.665 --> 00:05:23.266
- And it brought me through the whole thing.
- 00:05:23.332 --> 00:05:24.400
- Me through the whole thing. all the while, when things were
- 00:05:24.467 --> 00:05:25.368

- 00:12:27.857 --> 00:12:28.691
- There at the cross. when god says, "i forgive you of
- 00:12:28.757 --> 00:12:30.392
- When god says, "i forgive you of all your sins," it is not, "i
- 00:12:30.459 --> 00:12:32.094
- All your sins," it is not, "i forgive you today, but tomorrow,
- 00:12:32.161 --> 00:12:33.662
- Forgive you today, but tomorrow, fresh sins need
- 00:12:33.729 --> 00:12:34.463
- Fresh sins need fresh forgiveness.
- 00:12:34.530 --> 00:12:35.664
- Fresh forgiveness. fresh sins need
- 00:12:35.731 --> 00:12:36.432
- Fresh sins need fresh forgiveness."
- 00:12:36.498 --> 00:12:37.433
- Fresh forgiveness." no, god doesn't look at events
- 00:12:37.499 --> 00:12:39.635
- No, god doesn't look at events that pass by like this.
- 00:12:39.702 --> 00:12:40.703
- That pass by like this. god takes the helicopter view.
- 00:12:40.769 --> 00:12:43.906
- God takes the helicopter view. if there's a parade, you know,
- 00:12:43.973 --> 00:12:45.541
- If there's a parade, you know, you have seen parade, right?
- 00:12:45.608 --> 00:12:47.543
- You have seen parade, right? at disney and all that, they
- 00:12:47.610 --> 00:12:48.577
- At disney and all that, they have a parade.
- 00:12:48.644 --> 00:12:49.845
- Have a parade. god takes the helicopter view.
- 00:12:49.912 --> 00:12:50.913
- God takes the helicopter view. he can see the beginning of the
- 00:12:50.980 --> 00:12:52.414
- He can see the beginning of the parade and the end of
- 00:12:52.481 --> 00:12:53.949
- Parade and the end of the parade.
- 00:12:54.016 --> 00:12:54.950
- The parade. god saw your entire life of sins
- 00:12:55.017 --> 00:12:56.452
- God saw your entire life of sins when he put all your sins on
- 00:12:56.518 --> 00:12:57.987
- When he put all your sins on jesus christ.
- 00:12:58.053 --> 00:12:59.054
- Jesus christ. nothing takes god by surprise.
- 00:12:59.121 --> 00:13:00.990
- Nothing takes god by surprise. so when the bible says, "having
- 00:13:01.056 --> 00:13:02.458
- So when the bible says, "having purged our sins, jesus sat
- 00:13:02.524 --> 00:13:05.427
- Purged our sins, jesus sat down," that means it's complete.
- 00:13:05.494 --> 00:13:08.197
- Down," that means it's complete. there will never be a sin that
- 00:13:08.264 --> 00:13:09.398
- There will never be a sin that rises up and jesus has to stand
- 00:13:09.465 --> 00:13:10.966
- Rises up and jesus has to stand up and says, "i forgot to take
- 00:13:11.033 --> 00:13:12.334
- Up and says, "i forgot to take that away."
- 00:13:12.401 --> 00:13:13.669
- That away." it's done.
- 00:13:13.736 --> 00:13:16.338
- It's done. so whenever you see jesus seated
- 00:13:16.405 --> 00:13:17.773
- So whenever you see jesus seated up there, amen, and you see in
- 00:13:17.840 --> 00:13:20.676
- Up there, amen, and you see in the spirit, just know that he's
- 00:13:20.743 --> 00:13:22.711
- The spirit, just know that he's not sitting down because he's
- 00:13:22.778 --> 00:13:23.846
- Not sitting down because he's god, although he is.
- 00:13:23.913 --> 00:13:25.881
- He's not seated down because
- 00:13:25.948 --> 00:13:26.548
- He's not seated down because he's the son of god,
- 00:13:26.615 --> 00:13:27.316
- He's the son of god, although he is.
- 00:13:27.383 --> 00:13:28.584
- Although he is. he's not seated down because the
- 00:13:28.651 --> 00:13:29.852
- He's not seated down because the father honors him, although that
- 00:13:29.919 --> 00:13:31.253
- Father honors him, although that is true.
- 00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:32.154
- Is true. he's seated having purged
- 00:13:32.221 --> 00:13:34.156
- He's seated having purged our sins.
- 00:13:34.223 --> 00:13:37.593
- Our sins. isn't that tranquilizing for our
- 00:13:37.660 --> 00:13:38.694
- Isn't that tranquilizing for our souls, for our conscience?
- 00:13:38.761 --> 00:13:41.597
- It gives us peace, amen?
- 00:13:41.664 --> 00:13:44.867
- It gives us peace, amen? but best of all, this far above,
- 00:13:44.934 --> 00:13:47.202
- But best of all, this far above, raising christ far above all
- 00:13:47.269 --> 00:13:48.804
- Raising christ far above all principality, and power, and
- 00:13:48.871 --> 00:13:50.005
- Principality, and power, and might, and dominion every name
- 00:13:50.072 --> 00:13:51.340
- Might, and dominion every name that is named, is not only true
- 00:13:51.407 --> 00:13:52.675
- That is named, is not only true for jesus.
- 00:13:52.741 --> 00:13:54.643
- For jesus. god made his identity, his whole
- 00:13:54.710 --> 00:13:56.445
- God made his identity, his whole history start, our history
- 00:13:56.512 --> 00:13:59.014
- History start, our history start, with christ at the cross.
- 00:13:59.081 --> 00:14:02.751
- Start, with christ at the cross. we are crucified with christ.
- 00:14:02.818 --> 00:14:04.386
- We are crucified with christ. god raised us a new man in
- 00:14:04.453 --> 00:14:05.955
- God raised us a new man in christ, amen.
- 00:14:06.021 --> 00:14:07.690
- Christ, amen. when god raised christ, just
- 00:14:07.756 --> 00:14:08.891
- When god raised christ, just like the pen in the bible, god
- 00:14:08.958 --> 00:14:11.427
- Like the pen in the bible, god raised christ.
- 00:14:11.493 --> 00:14:12.828
- Raised christ. god raised us in him.
- 00:14:12.895 --> 00:14:13.996
- God raised us in him. and when god says, "sit on my
- 00:14:14.063 --> 00:14:15.531
- And when god says, "sit on my right hand until i make your
- 00:14:15.597 --> 00:14:16.966
- Right hand until i make your enemies your footstool," we all
- 00:14:17.032 --> 00:14:19.335
- Enemies your footstool," we all sat down with christ.
- 00:14:19.401 --> 00:14:20.703
- Sat down with christ. that's where you are right now.
- 00:14:20.769 --> 00:14:22.271
- That's where you are right now. and my friend, that is seated in
- 00:14:22.338 --> 00:14:24.506
- And my friend, that is seated in the upper room.
- 00:14:24.573 --> 00:14:30.713
- The upper room. that is seated
- 00:14:30.779 --> 00:14:32.748
- That is seated in the heavenly places.
- 00:14:32.815 --> 00:14:34.116
- In the heavenly places. in fact, if you look at your
- 00:14:34.183 --> 00:14:35.050
- In fact, if you look at your bible carefully, the word
- 00:14:35.117 --> 00:14:35.918
- Bible carefully, the word "places" is actually in italics.
- 00:14:35.985 --> 00:14:38.020
- "places" is actually in italics. that means the translators don't
- 00:14:38.087 --> 00:14:38.721
- That means the translators don't have it in the original.
- 00:14:38.787 --> 00:14:40.289
- Have it in the original. they added it in to help.
- 00:14:40.356 --> 00:14:42.992
- They added it in to help. sometimes it helps, sometimes it
- 00:14:43.058 --> 00:14:45.027
- Sometimes it helps, sometimes it deters actually, but don't worry
- 00:14:45.094 --> 00:14:47.529
- Deters actually, but don't worry about the italics,
- 00:14:47.596 --> 00:14:48.597
- About the italics, italics is not in the original.
- 00:14:48.664 --> 00:14:50.899
- Italics is not in the original. but the original says
- 00:14:50.966 --> 00:14:51.700
- But the original says "heavenlies," "raised us up
- 00:14:51.767 --> 00:14:53.168
- "heavenlies," "raised us up together, and made us
- 00:14:53.235 --> 00:14:54.436
- Together, and made us sit together."
- 00:14:54.503 --> 00:14:55.471
- Sit together." he "made us sit together in the
- 00:14:55.537 --> 00:14:56.805
- He "made us sit together in the heavenly places in
- 00:14:56.872 --> 00:14:58.474
- Heavenly places in christ jesus."
- 00:14:58.540 --> 00:14:59.475
- Christ jesus." the word "heavenly" is the word
- 00:14:59.541 --> 00:15:01.777
- The word "heavenly" is the word "epouranios," which is actually
- 00:15:01.844 --> 00:15:03.812
- "epouranios," which is actually "epi" is "upper."
- 00:15:03.879 --> 00:15:07.616
- "epi" is "upper." the "ouranios" is
- 00:15:07.683 --> 00:15:08.350
- The "ouranios" is actually "heavens."
- 00:15:08.417 --> 00:15:10.386
- Actually "heavens." it's the "upper heavens."
- 00:15:10.452 --> 00:15:13.255
- It's the "upper heavens." the lord wants us to live
- 00:15:13.322 --> 00:15:14.490
- The lord wants us to live constantly in the upper room, so
- 00:15:14.556 --> 00:15:15.924

- So, have you been raised? past tense.

- Yes. so, where are you now
- 00:15:41.784 --> 00:15:43.552
- So, where are you now seated, where?
- 00:15:43.619 --> 00:15:45.354
- Seated, where? in the upper heavenlies, the
- 00:15:45.421 --> 00:15:46.889
- In the upper heavenlies, the third heaven where god dwells.
- 00:15:46.955 --> 00:15:49.892
- Third heaven where god dwells. his throne is brilliance beyond
- 00:15:49.958 --> 00:15:53.162

- 00:15:53.228 --> 00:15:55.264
- The excellence, shining, and radiance of the sun.
- 00:15:55.330 --> 00:15:57.366
- Radiance of the sun. beyond all that.

- Brighter than the sun, amen? we are seated with christ in
- 00:16:00.469 --> 00:16:02.471
- We are seated with christ in heavenly places.
- 00:16:02.538 --> 00:16:03.572
- Heavenly places. so when you are seated with
- 00:16:03.639 --> 00:16:04.940
- So when you are seated with christ, alright, you must have
- 00:16:05.007 --> 00:16:06.909
- Christ, alright, you must have this posture, okay?
- 00:16:06.975 --> 00:16:08.811
- This posture, okay? can i sit down?
- 00:16:08.877 --> 00:16:11.613
- Can i sit down? it's a very scriptural position
- 00:16:11.680 --> 00:16:13.082
- It's a very scriptural position in the bible.
- 00:16:13.148 --> 00:16:13.649
- In the bible. the bible says that before jesus
- 00:16:13.715 --> 00:16:14.917
- The bible says that before jesus preached to someone on the
- 00:16:14.983 --> 00:16:15.684
- Preached to someone on the mount, jesus sat down.
- 00:16:15.751 --> 00:16:17.553
- Mount, jesus sat down. and there were multitudes there.
- 00:16:17.619 --> 00:16:19.455
- And there were multitudes there. it's not that you sit down
- 00:16:19.521 --> 00:16:20.522
- It's not that you sit down because there are a row of 12
- 00:16:20.589 --> 00:16:22.157
- Because there are a row of 12 people in front of you, right?
- 00:16:22.224 --> 00:16:24.726
- People in front of you, right? it's easy, right?
- 00:16:24.793 --> 00:16:25.894
- It's easy, right? but there's a multitude.
- 00:16:25.961 --> 00:16:27.763
- But there's a multitude. but the bible says first thing
- 00:16:27.830 --> 00:16:28.831
- But the bible says first thing he did, sit down.
- 00:16:28.897 --> 00:16:30.032
- He did, sit down. you are in the heavenlies.
- 00:16:30.099 --> 00:16:31.333
- You are in the heavenlies. and when you disassociate
- 00:16:31.400 --> 00:16:32.468
- And when you disassociate yourself, you can have a right
- 00:16:32.534 --> 00:16:34.069
- Yourself, you can have a right perspective of that problem.
- 00:16:34.136 --> 00:16:36.738
- Perspective of that problem. you won't be crushed.
- 00:16:36.805 --> 00:16:37.506
- You won't be crushed. but if you are a normal person
- 00:16:37.573 --> 00:16:38.674
- But if you are a normal person with all the rest on the same
- 00:16:38.740 --> 00:16:40.042
- With all the rest on the same ground, earthward, sensual,
- 00:16:40.109 --> 00:16:42.044
- Ground, earthward, sensual, earthbound, logical, you cannot
- 00:16:42.111 --> 00:16:44.580
- Earthbound, logical, you cannot have that wisdom that comes
- 00:16:44.646 --> 00:16:45.747
- Have that wisdom that comes from above.
- 00:16:45.814 --> 00:16:48.317
- From above. so, we live life earthwards,
- 00:16:48.383 --> 00:16:54.523
- So, we live life earthwards, from heaven, earthwards.
- 00:16:54.590 --> 00:16:57.526
- From heaven, earthwards. don't live life from earth,
- 00:16:57.593 --> 00:17:00.229
- Don't live life from earth, heavenward, which a lot of
- 00:17:00.295 --> 00:17:02.097
- Heavenward, which a lot of christians are doing.
- 00:17:02.164 --> 00:17:02.865
- Christians are doing. you think about it when you
- 00:17:02.931 --> 00:17:03.732
- You think about it when you pray, right?
- 00:17:03.799 --> 00:17:04.833
- Pray, right? how do you pray?
- 00:17:04.900 --> 00:17:05.767
- How do you pray? you say, "father in heaven."
- 00:17:05.834 --> 00:17:07.769
- You say, "father in heaven." that's taught in the lord's
- 00:17:07.836 --> 00:17:09.004
- That's taught in the lord's prayer at that time.
- 00:17:09.071 --> 00:17:10.272
- Prayer at that time. it's true.
- 00:17:10.339 --> 00:17:11.406
- It's true. he wanted them, you can see
- 00:17:11.473 --> 00:17:12.708
- He wanted them, you can see them, israel, as disciples.
- 00:17:12.774 --> 00:17:16.011
- Them, israel, as disciples. they were disciples, but they
- 00:17:16.078 --> 00:17:16.879
- They were disciples, but they are not saved.
- 00:17:16.945 --> 00:17:17.412
- Are not saved. he has not yet died.
- 00:17:17.479 --> 00:17:18.180
- He has not yet died. that's why in the
- 00:17:18.247 --> 00:17:18.914
- That's why in the sermon on the mount,
- 00:17:18.981 --> 00:17:19.815
- Sermon on the mount, there's not one word
- 00:17:19.882 --> 00:17:20.716
- There's not one word about salvation.
- 00:17:20.782 --> 00:17:21.984
- About salvation. it was a perfect sermon for the
- 00:17:22.050 --> 00:17:23.986
- It was a perfect sermon for the kingdom, which that sermon will
- 00:17:24.052 --> 00:17:26.188
- Kingdom, which that sermon will be fully implemented when jesus
- 00:17:26.255 --> 00:17:27.723
- Be fully implemented when jesus comes again in the kingdom, and
- 00:17:27.789 --> 00:17:31.693
- Comes again in the kingdom, and we'll come with him.
- 00:17:31.760 --> 00:17:34.296
- We'll come with him. so, you think about it.
- 00:17:34.363 --> 00:17:36.665
- So, you think about it. when you are in this position
- 00:17:36.732 --> 00:17:40.302
- When you are in this position with christ, what is
- 00:17:40.369 --> 00:17:42.037
- With christ, what is your posture?
- 00:17:42.104 --> 00:17:42.971
- Your posture? what do you look forward to?
- 00:17:43.038 --> 00:17:44.406
- What do you look forward to? one time, i was praying and i
- 00:17:44.473 --> 00:17:45.374
- One time, i was praying and i said, like god is so far away, i
- 00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:46.675
- Said, like god is so far away, i look up, "father in heaven?"
- 00:17:46.742 --> 00:17:49.211
- Look up, "father in heaven?" then he says, "why do you see me
- 00:17:49.278 --> 00:17:50.479
- Then he says, "why do you see me so far away?"
- 00:17:50.546 --> 00:17:51.613
- So far away?" he rebuked me.
- 00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:52.247
- He rebuked me. he corrected me in his love.
- 00:17:52.314 --> 00:17:54.750
- He corrected me in his love. i said, "how do i do it?"
- 00:17:54.816 --> 00:17:55.717
- I said, "how do i do it?" your prayers don't get answered
- 00:17:55.784 --> 00:17:57.085
- Your prayers don't get answered because you start off from the
- 00:17:57.152 --> 00:17:57.986
- Because you start off from the wrong premise.
- 00:17:58.053 --> 00:17:59.054
- Wrong premise. it's an unscriptural premise.
- 00:17:59.121 --> 00:18:00.455
- It's an unscriptural premise. and the holy spirit is the
- 00:18:00.522 --> 00:18:01.790
- And the holy spirit is the spirit of truth.
- 00:18:01.857 --> 00:18:03.058
- Spirit of truth. he cannot bear witness with this
- 00:18:03.125 --> 00:18:04.660
- He cannot bear witness with this lie that i'm far away.
- 00:18:04.726 --> 00:18:06.895
- Lie that i'm far away. so, "i didn't mean it to, lord."
- 00:18:06.962 --> 00:18:08.197
- So, "i didn't mean it to, lord." and he says, "pray, from now on,
- 00:18:08.263 --> 00:18:11.433
- And he says, "pray, from now on, pray, all right, let your words
- 00:18:11.500 --> 00:18:13.068
- Pray, all right, let your words be few, knowing, knowing.
- 00:18:13.135 --> 00:18:14.903
- Be few, knowing, knowing. more importantly is this,
- 00:18:14.970 --> 00:18:16.071
- More importantly is this, knowing i'm listening.
- 00:18:16.138 --> 00:18:19.107
- Knowing i'm listening. knowing, and you must know that
- 00:18:19.174 --> 00:18:21.009
- Knowing, and you must know that you're so close to me even at my
- 00:18:21.076 --> 00:18:24.313
- You're so close to me even at my right hand."
- 00:18:24.379 --> 00:18:25.714
- Right hand." so, how do you pray to someone
- 00:18:25.781 --> 00:18:27.349
- So, how do you pray to someone who is so near, right?
- 00:18:27.416 --> 00:18:30.152
- Who is so near, right? now, i don't want to say loud.
- 00:18:30.219 --> 00:18:31.954
- Now, i don't want to say loud. sometimes i pray loud, right?
- 00:18:32.020 --> 00:18:33.956
- Sometimes i pray loud, right? sometimes i pray soft.
- 00:18:34.022 --> 00:18:35.390
- Sometimes i pray soft. it's not the loudness of it.
- 00:18:35.457 --> 00:18:36.525
- It's not the loudness of it. it's the prayer in your spirit,
- 00:18:36.592 --> 00:18:38.227
- It's the prayer in your spirit, your conscience.
- 00:18:38.293 --> 00:18:38.927
- Your conscience. i say, "father," you must know
- 00:18:38.994 --> 00:18:40.295
- I say, "father," you must know he's listening already.
- 00:18:40.362 --> 00:18:42.264
- He's listening already. i'm like, "father, father,
- 00:18:42.331 --> 00:18:43.665
- I'm like, "father, father, father, you know?"
- 00:18:43.732 --> 00:18:44.566
- Father, you know?" not that kind of prayer.
- 00:18:44.633 --> 00:18:49.271
- Not that kind of prayer. "father," got it, he's
- 00:18:49.338 --> 00:18:50.639
- "father," got it, he's there again.
- 00:18:50.706 --> 00:18:52.107
- There again. "father, i thank you that you
- 00:18:52.174 --> 00:18:53.175
- "father, i thank you that you have heard me."
- 00:18:53.242 --> 00:18:54.743
- Have heard me." there's this personal
- 00:18:54.810 --> 00:18:55.811
- There's this personal relationship and the world is
- 00:18:55.877 --> 00:18:58.347
- Relationship and the world is looking for that, amen?
- 00:18:58.413 --> 00:19:01.683
- Looking for that, amen? they're not looking
- 00:19:01.750 --> 00:19:02.317
- They're not looking for formality.
- 00:19:02.384 --> 00:19:03.118
- For formality. "oh, father in heaven, thou,
- 00:19:03.185 --> 00:19:05.254
- "oh, father in heaven, thou, that makes all," then when my
- 00:19:05.320 --> 00:19:06.588
- That makes all," then when my son asked me something, right?
- 00:19:06.655 --> 00:19:08.056
- Son asked me something, right? abba?
- 00:19:08.123 --> 00:19:08.724
- Abba? ask for something straight away.
- 00:19:08.790 --> 00:19:10.659
- Ask for something straight away. when you pray, you pray in the
- 00:19:10.726 --> 00:19:12.027
- When you pray, you pray in the sense of family closeness.
- 00:19:12.094 --> 00:19:13.395
- Sense of family closeness. in the consciousness, he
- 00:19:13.462 --> 00:19:14.396
- In the consciousness, he loves you.
- 00:19:14.463 --> 00:19:16.164
- Loves you. his great love by which he loved
- 00:19:16.231 --> 00:19:18.033
- His great love by which he loved us, he made us sit together
- 00:19:18.100 --> 00:19:19.334
- Us, he made us sit together with christ.
- 00:19:19.401 --> 00:19:20.369
- With christ. we are there.
- 00:19:20.435 --> 00:19:21.336
- We are there. no one can remove our position.
- 00:19:21.403 --> 00:19:24.439
- No one can remove our position. satan cannot remove that
- 00:19:24.506 --> 00:19:25.540
- Satan cannot remove that position, your position.
- 00:19:25.607 --> 00:19:27.342
- Position, your position. so, two attitudes.
- 00:19:27.409 --> 00:19:28.010
- So, two attitudes. number one, and i don't have
- 00:19:28.076 --> 00:19:29.978
- Number one, and i don't have time to do all this, to show you
- 00:19:30.045 --> 00:19:31.513
- Time to do all this, to show you all the scriptures, but listen
- 00:19:31.580 --> 00:19:32.781
- All the scriptures, but listen to me okay?
- 00:19:32.848 --> 00:19:33.315
- To me okay? it's all in there in the bible.
- 00:19:33.382 --> 00:19:34.650
- It's all in there in the bible. the first one to show in front
- 00:19:34.716 --> 00:19:36.385
- The first one to show in front of you, what can you expect when
- 00:19:36.451 --> 00:19:37.753
- Of you, what can you expect when you're seated with christ?
- 00:19:37.819 --> 00:19:39.554
- You're seated with christ? there's a show coming.
- 00:19:39.621 --> 00:19:40.856
- There's a show coming. he's going to show you the
- 00:19:40.922 --> 00:19:42.958
- He's going to show you the exceeding riches of his grace.
- 00:19:43.025 --> 00:19:46.728
- Exceeding riches of his grace. and you know what?
- 00:19:46.795 --> 00:19:48.297
- And you know what? listen carefully.
- 00:19:48.363 --> 00:19:49.097
- Listen carefully. it's not just when you die and
- 00:19:49.164 --> 00:19:50.098
- It's not just when you die and go to heaven, he will show you.
- 00:19:50.165 --> 00:19:51.867
- Go to heaven, he will show you. while you are living here with
- 00:19:51.933 --> 00:19:53.235
- While you are living here with your spirit seated in christ, he
- 00:19:53.302 --> 00:19:56.571
- Your spirit seated in christ, he is going to show you.
- 00:19:56.638 --> 00:20:00.709
- Is going to show you. all the favors he has
- 00:20:00.776 --> 00:20:01.943
- All the favors he has for you this year--
- 00:20:02.010 --> 00:20:04.680
- For you this year-- he will show you the
- 00:20:04.746 --> 00:20:06.114
- He will show you the exceeding riches of his
- 00:20:06.181 --> 00:20:07.649
- Exceeding riches of his unearned, undeserved, unmerited
- 00:20:07.716 --> 00:20:10.085
- Unearned, undeserved, unmerited favor for you.
- 00:20:10.152 --> 00:20:15.090
- Favor for you. and let's not worry about who
- 00:20:15.157 --> 00:20:16.525
- And let's not worry about who says what, who says this, or you
- 00:20:16.591 --> 00:20:18.527
- Says what, who says this, or you listen to prophecies that people
- 00:20:18.593 --> 00:20:19.695
- Listen to prophecies that people thought bad things happening
- 00:20:19.761 --> 00:20:21.330
- Thought bad things happening this year or prophets say
- 00:20:21.396 --> 00:20:22.731
- This year or prophets say this year.
- 00:20:22.798 --> 00:20:23.765
- This year. listen, the bible says when
- 00:20:23.832 --> 00:20:25.934
- Listen, the bible says when you're seated with christ, you
- 00:20:26.001 --> 00:20:27.536
- You're seated with christ, you will only see exceeding riches
- 00:20:27.602 --> 00:20:29.071
- Will only see exceeding riches of his grace.
- 00:20:29.137 --> 00:20:30.005
- Of his grace. doesn't mean there's
- 00:20:30.072 --> 00:20:30.706
- Doesn't mean there's no persecution.
- 00:20:30.772 --> 00:20:31.573
- No persecution. doesn't mean, in fact, in the
- 00:20:31.640 --> 00:20:32.407
- Doesn't mean, in fact, in the upper room, there's a promise
- 00:20:32.474 --> 00:20:33.442
- Upper room, there's a promise of persecution.
- 00:20:33.508 --> 00:20:34.109
- Of persecution. jesus says where it happened.
- 00:20:34.176 --> 00:20:35.277
- Jesus says where it happened. he even taught us how to respond
- 00:20:35.344 --> 00:20:36.645
- He even taught us how to respond to it in the upper room,
- 00:20:36.712 --> 00:20:38.747
- To it in the upper room, all right?
- 00:20:38.814 --> 00:20:39.314
- All right? there'll be persecution,
- 00:20:39.381 --> 00:20:40.182
- There'll be persecution, especially if you are
- 00:20:40.248 --> 00:20:40.816
- Especially if you are a believer.
- 00:20:40.882 --> 00:20:43.218
- A believer. but your posture in responding
- 00:20:43.285 --> 00:20:45.253
- But your posture in responding to it, difficulty and all that,
- 00:20:45.320 --> 00:20:47.089
- To it, difficulty and all that, is that you are seated
- 00:20:47.155 --> 00:20:48.056
- Is that you are seated with christ.
- 00:20:48.123 --> 00:20:50.392
- With christ. and your family identity is
- 00:20:50.459 --> 00:20:53.095
- And your family identity is royalty, but not royalty to
- 00:20:53.161 --> 00:20:55.731
- Royalty, but not royalty to dominate people.
- 00:20:55.797 --> 00:20:57.065
- Dominate people. your power is not to dominate
- 00:20:57.132 --> 00:20:58.433
- Your power is not to dominate people, but to break their
- 00:20:58.500 --> 00:21:00.168
- People, but to break their bondage, to destroy their sin,
- 00:21:00.235 --> 00:21:03.205
- Bondage, to destroy their sin, to cast out the demon that's
- 00:21:03.271 --> 00:21:04.673
- To cast out the demon that's oppressing them, to heal
- 00:21:04.740 --> 00:21:08.944
- Oppressing them, to heal the sick.
- 00:21:09.010 --> 00:21:10.846
- The sick. that's the authority you have.
- 00:21:10.912 --> 00:21:12.681
- That's the authority you have. and like jesus, you can be
- 00:21:12.748 --> 00:21:13.915
- And like jesus, you can be dressed normal, look normal, but
- 00:21:13.982 --> 00:21:16.685
- Dressed normal, look normal, but there's something about you
- 00:21:16.752 --> 00:21:18.587
- There's something about you that's radiant, that
- 00:21:18.653 --> 00:21:20.455
- That's radiant, that is heavenly.
- 00:21:20.522 --> 00:21:21.656
- Is heavenly. that, my friend, is the
- 00:21:21.723 --> 00:21:22.657
- That, my friend, is the christian life.
- 00:21:22.724 --> 00:21:24.192
- Christian life. if your version of holiness is
- 00:21:24.259 --> 00:21:25.460
- If your version of holiness is such that there's a morose face,
- 00:21:25.527 --> 00:21:26.862
- Such that there's a morose face, look like baptized in tom yum
- 00:21:26.928 --> 00:21:28.196
- Look like baptized in tom yum juice, all right, that's
- 00:21:28.263 --> 00:21:29.765
- Juice, all right, that's not christianity.
- 00:21:29.831 --> 00:21:31.500
- Not christianity. because the bible says to jesus,
- 00:21:31.566 --> 00:21:33.769
- Hebrews chapter 1, "god has
- 00:21:33.835 --> 00:21:36.071
- Hebrews chapter 1, "god has anointed you," father telling
- 00:21:36.138 --> 00:21:37.773
- Anointed you," father telling the son, "god has anointed you
- 00:21:37.839 --> 00:21:39.374
- The son, "god has anointed you with the oil of gladness above
- 00:21:39.441 --> 00:21:40.842
- With the oil of gladness above your fellows."
- 00:21:40.909 --> 00:21:41.977
- Your fellows." your fellows there is not
- 00:21:42.043 --> 00:21:43.178
- Your fellows there is not the angels.
- 00:21:43.245 --> 00:21:44.246
- The angels. god don't call the
- 00:21:44.312 --> 00:21:44.946
- God don't call the angels fellows.
- 00:21:45.013 --> 00:21:46.281
- Angels fellows. your fellows means together,
- 00:21:46.348 --> 00:21:47.649
- Your fellows means together, join as with christ.
- 00:21:47.716 --> 00:21:48.450
- Join as with christ. who are the fellows?
- 00:21:48.517 --> 00:21:49.384
- Who are the fellows? all of us.
- 00:21:49.451 --> 00:21:50.886
- All of us. and jesus is the happiest.
- 00:21:50.952 --> 00:21:52.587
- And jesus is the happiest. he's anointed with the oil of
- 00:21:52.654 --> 00:21:53.889
- He's anointed with the oil of gladness above your fellows.
- 00:21:53.955 --> 00:21:55.891
- Gladness above your fellows. we rejoice in all these things
- 00:21:55.957 --> 00:21:57.025
- We rejoice in all these things that we are learning.
- 00:21:57.092 --> 00:21:57.959
- That we are learning. but you know something?
- 00:21:58.026 --> 00:21:58.894
- But you know something? his joy exceeds ours.
- 00:21:58.960 --> 00:22:01.196
- His joy exceeds ours. he loves to love you more than
- 00:22:01.263 --> 00:22:02.497
- He loves to love you more than you love to be loved.
- 00:22:02.564 --> 00:22:05.834
- You love to be loved. you enjoy hearing the truths of
- 00:22:05.901 --> 00:22:07.202
- You enjoy hearing the truths of the finished work.
- 00:22:07.269 --> 00:22:08.069
- The finished work. he enjoys telling you, revealing
- 00:22:08.136 --> 00:22:11.072
- He enjoys telling you, revealing to you, amen.
- 00:22:11.139 --> 00:22:12.974
- To you, amen. and that's why the bible, to
- 00:22:13.041 --> 00:22:14.409
- And that's why the bible, to start off, we will just tell you
- 00:22:14.476 --> 00:22:16.445
- Start off, we will just tell you this, okay?
- 00:22:16.511 --> 00:22:18.380
- This, okay? okay, you saw that?
- 00:22:18.447 --> 00:22:19.314
- Okay, you saw that? i'll try again, okay?
- 00:22:19.381 --> 00:22:21.716
- I'll try again, okay? how fast you get up, okay, is
- 00:22:21.783 --> 00:22:24.686
- How fast you get up, okay, is how young you are, amen, amen.
- 00:22:24.753 --> 00:22:31.960
- How young you are, amen, amen. so, let me give you another
- 00:22:32.027 --> 00:22:32.928
- So, let me give you another posture and we will close
- 00:22:32.994 --> 00:22:33.895
- Posture and we will close with this.
- 00:22:33.962 --> 00:22:35.063
