  • ...
  • 00:00:00.633 --> 00:00:09.828
  • Joseph prince: loneliness is not a question of presence
  • 00:00:12.397 --> 00:00:14.766
  • Or absence of a human person beside you.
  • 00:00:14.900 --> 00:00:19.438
  • Loneliness is a state of the heart that is empty.
  • 00:00:19.571 --> 00:00:23.542
  • A lonely heart doesn't mean you're not married
  • 00:00:23.642 --> 00:00:24.443
  • Or you don't have a partner.
  • 00:00:26.011 --> 00:00:27.779
  • You can have a partner and be married
  • 00:00:27.779 --> 00:00:29.248
  • And still have a lonely heart.
  • 00:00:29.248 --> 00:00:31.483
  • The cure is to be alone with jesus.
  • 00:00:31.483 --> 00:00:39.525
  • Now that means loneliness is different from aloneness.
  • 00:00:36.088 --> 00:00:45.230
  • Jesus wants time alone with you, amen?
  • 00:00:45.230 --> 00:00:51.103
  • The cure to a lonely heart is to be alone with jesus.
  • 00:00:51.103 --> 00:00:54.907
  • Joseph prince: when you're alone with jesus,
  • 00:00:54.973 --> 00:00:56.308
  • I can't tell you the number of times,
  • 00:00:56.308 --> 00:00:57.776
  • You feel like something is flowing on the inside, amen.
  • 00:00:57.776 --> 00:01:01.180
  • Joseph prince: just a bit of favor god puts on you.
  • 00:01:01.246 --> 00:01:03.482
  • That's it, man, all right.
  • 00:01:03.482 --> 00:01:04.917
  • Things happen for you around you, amen.
  • 00:01:04.917 --> 00:01:08.120
  • But people who are proud and they want to achieve
  • 00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:10.722
  • Their own righteousness, they want to do their own thing,
  • 00:01:10.722 --> 00:01:13.492
  • They are so capable.
  • 00:01:13.492 --> 00:01:14.826
  • You don't need god. you don't need a savior.
  • 00:01:14.826 --> 00:01:16.528
  • You can save yourself, amen?
  • 00:01:16.528 --> 00:01:19.064
  • But those who say, "i need someone to help me,
  • 00:01:19.064 --> 00:01:21.867
  • I need a savior," jesus comes and says, "i'm your savior.
  • 00:01:21.867 --> 00:01:25.704
  • I am the promised one."
  • 00:01:25.704 --> 00:01:27.172
  • Are you listening, people?
  • 00:01:27.172 --> 00:01:29.441
  • Male announcer: want to experience days of heaven
  • 00:01:29.508 --> 00:01:31.410
  • On earth?
  • 00:01:31.410 --> 00:01:32.744
  • In today's message joseph shares more about how to enjoy
  • 00:01:32.744 --> 00:01:35.147
  • A blessed marriage and family life.
  • 00:01:35.147 --> 00:01:37.983
  • What does it mean to have a friend you can always rely on?
  • 00:01:37.983 --> 00:01:40.652
  • In a world where even close relationships can let us down,
  • 00:01:40.652 --> 00:01:43.755
  • There is one friend who never will: jesus.

  • 00:02:27.833 --> 00:02:30.168
  • With today's program.
  • 00:02:30.168 --> 00:02:31.637
  • Joseph prince: the lord gave me these beautiful side-by-side
  • 00:02:31.637 --> 00:02:36.275
  • Chapters in john 3 and john 4.
  • 00:02:36.275 --> 00:02:40.178
  • John 3, you have nicodemus, the story of nicodemus.
  • 00:02:40.178 --> 00:02:44.750
  • John 4, you have the story of the samaritan woman, okay?
  • 00:02:44.750 --> 00:02:50.055
  • Jesus at the well.
  • 00:02:50.055 --> 00:02:51.390
  • Do you remember that, okay?
  • 00:02:51.390 --> 00:02:52.724
  • So again, they are in juxtaposition, side by side.
  • 00:02:52.724 --> 00:02:54.993
  • And let's compare and contrast, okay?
  • 00:02:54.993 --> 00:02:57.195
  • There are lessons there for us to learn.
  • 00:02:57.195 --> 00:02:58.664
  • And you will know what jesus is pleased with.
  • 00:02:58.664 --> 00:03:01.867
  • You will know how to flow with him,
  • 00:03:01.867 --> 00:03:03.302
  • You will know what he's looking for, amen.
  • 00:03:03.302 --> 00:03:06.505
  • Now, in john 3 is nicodemus.
  • 00:03:06.505 --> 00:03:08.807
  • Let's read the story here.
  • 00:03:08.807 --> 00:03:10.142
  • "there was a man of the pharisees named nicodemus,
  • 00:03:10.142 --> 00:03:12.411
  • A ruler of the jews."
  • 00:03:12.411 --> 00:03:14.079
  • Now, when the bible says he's a pharisee
  • 00:03:14.079 --> 00:03:15.847
  • And then a ruler, that means he's the crème de la crème,
  • 00:03:15.847 --> 00:03:19.284
  • You know, he's the best of the pharisees.
  • 00:03:19.284 --> 00:03:22.954
  • He belongs to the sanhedrin.
  • 00:03:22.954 --> 00:03:25.457
  • In fact, later on jesus says, "are you not a master
  • 00:03:25.457 --> 00:03:27.192
  • In israel?"
  • 00:03:27.192 --> 00:03:28.860
  • The word there is, aren't you "the" master in new king james,
  • 00:03:28.860 --> 00:03:32.064
  • Definite article.
  • 00:03:32.064 --> 00:03:33.398
  • So he's a person who is a pharisee of pharisees,
  • 00:03:33.398 --> 00:03:36.368
  • All right, a person of stature.
  • 00:03:36.368 --> 00:03:38.136
  • Not just an ordinary pharisee, okay?
  • 00:03:38.136 --> 00:03:40.672
  • So you see this man, he came to jesus by night.
  • 00:03:40.672 --> 00:03:45.010
  • He was ashamed, all right, to have his colleagues
  • 00:03:45.010 --> 00:03:48.180
  • And the people see him come to jesus, all right?
  • 00:03:48.180 --> 00:03:51.516
  • Obviously, jesus evoked in him a thirst for something more.
  • 00:03:51.516 --> 00:03:58.490
  • With all his learned, you know, his being erudite
  • 00:03:58.490 --> 00:04:04.229
  • And instilled in the torah, in the laws,
  • 00:04:04.229 --> 00:04:08.133
  • In the rabbinical literature and all that, of his day,
  • 00:04:08.133 --> 00:04:11.002
  • He's considered as like a harvard student graduate,
  • 00:04:11.002 --> 00:04:14.406
  • You know?
  • 00:04:14.406 --> 00:04:15.841
  • But the thing is that there was a hunger in this man.
  • 00:04:15.841 --> 00:04:19.010
  • He came to jesus.
  • 00:04:19.010 --> 00:04:20.579
  • In john 4, it was a samaritan woman.
  • 00:04:20.579 --> 00:04:23.348
  • So let's compare.
  • 00:04:23.348 --> 00:04:24.683
  • John 3 you have nicodemus, a man.
  • 00:04:24.683 --> 00:04:27.786
  • John 4 you have a woman.
  • 00:04:27.786 --> 00:04:29.888
  • Contrast.
  • 00:04:29.888 --> 00:04:31.623
  • John 3, all right, he came to jesus by night.
  • 00:04:31.623 --> 00:04:35.127
  • He didn't want anyone seeing him.
  • 00:04:35.127 --> 00:04:37.095
  • John 4, the bible gives us the time that jesus met the woman
  • 00:04:37.095 --> 00:04:39.664
  • At the well.
  • 00:04:39.664 --> 00:04:40.999
  • It was the sixth hour.
  • 00:04:40.999 --> 00:04:42.334
  • Noonday sun, broad daylight.
  • 00:04:42.334 --> 00:04:43.902
  • You see that?
  • 00:04:43.902 --> 00:04:45.237
  • All right, so nicodemus came at night.
  • 00:04:45.237 --> 00:04:46.872
  • Jesus met the woman in broad daylight.
  • 00:04:46.872 --> 00:04:50.275
  • Then another thing is this, in john 3 for nicodemus,
  • 00:04:50.275 --> 00:04:54.012
  • He sought jesus.
  • 00:04:54.012 --> 00:04:58.450
  • John 4, jesus sought the woman.
  • 00:04:58.450 --> 00:05:03.188
  • Jesus went all the way to where she was.
  • 00:05:03.188 --> 00:05:06.091
  • Here you find--so the thing is this, some people think that the
  • 00:05:06.091 --> 00:05:09.461
  • More learned you are, you know, the more, you know,
  • 00:05:09.461 --> 00:05:12.964
  • The kind of ideas they have about holiness.
  • 00:05:12.964 --> 00:05:16.401
  • This nicodemus, he's a theologian.
  • 00:05:16.401 --> 00:05:20.605
  • The samaritan woman is ignorant of the bible.
  • 00:05:20.605 --> 00:05:23.942
  • In fact, she is a samaritan.
  • 00:05:23.942 --> 00:05:25.510
  • You know what's a samaritan?
  • 00:05:25.510 --> 00:05:26.945
  • Samaritan claim themselves to be jews but they are not jews.
  • 00:05:26.945 --> 00:05:29.114
  • You find their history in 2 kings 17.
  • 00:05:29.114 --> 00:05:33.185
  • How the king of assyria during the time of hoshea,
  • 00:05:33.185 --> 00:05:35.887
  • King of israel, this king of assyria came, all right,
  • 00:05:35.887 --> 00:05:39.624
  • Took the people of israel captive
  • 00:05:39.624 --> 00:05:41.259
  • Because they were in idolatry, all right?
  • 00:05:41.259 --> 00:05:43.295
  • God allowed him to come and take the people of israel captive.
  • 00:05:43.295 --> 00:05:46.364
  • And then the assyrians planted their own people
  • 00:05:46.364 --> 00:05:49.901
  • With some babylonians in the place called samaria.
  • 00:05:49.901 --> 00:05:53.171
  • So samaritans claim that they are jews
  • 00:05:53.171 --> 00:05:54.739
  • But actually they are not.
  • 00:05:54.739 --> 00:05:56.074
  • They are actually assyrians and babylonians, okay?
  • 00:05:56.074 --> 00:05:58.877
  • But they have the same old testament as the jews.
  • 00:05:58.877 --> 00:06:01.513
  • And they claim that god is to be worshipped
  • 00:06:01.513 --> 00:06:03.648
  • At mount gerizim in samaria.
  • 00:06:03.648 --> 00:06:06.051
  • So the jews didn't like them and they didn't like the jews.
  • 00:06:06.051 --> 00:06:09.154
  • Are we clear on that, okay?
  • 00:06:09.154 --> 00:06:10.989
  • So here you have a man who is a upper class man, okay,
  • 00:06:10.989 --> 00:06:15.827
  • Nicodemus, a jew of jews, a pharisee of pharisees.
  • 00:06:15.827 --> 00:06:18.830
  • John 4, you have a sinner woman who is a samaritan.
  • 00:06:18.830 --> 00:06:21.733
  • One is a jew, one is a gentile, okay?
  • 00:06:21.733 --> 00:06:27.038
  • Which one is jesus more comfortable with?
  • 00:06:27.038 --> 00:06:30.342
  • In this case, john 3, the man sought jesus.
  • 00:06:30.342 --> 00:06:33.144
  • In john 4, jesus sought the woman.
  • 00:06:33.144 --> 00:06:35.747
  • Look at john 4 here, it's beautiful.
  • 00:06:35.747 --> 00:06:37.449
  • Jesus left judea.
  • 00:06:37.449 --> 00:06:38.817
  • You must understand why he left judea.
  • 00:06:38.817 --> 00:06:40.385
  • The story before this is they rejected jesus.
  • 00:06:40.385 --> 00:06:43.221
  • The pharisees and the priests rejected their messiah.
  • 00:06:43.221 --> 00:06:47.626
  • The messiah that they claim is coming finally came, all right?
  • 00:06:47.626 --> 00:06:52.030
  • And it's prophesied in the old testament.
  • 00:06:52.030 --> 00:06:54.900
  • So they know the book, but they didn't know the author
  • 00:06:54.900 --> 00:06:57.602
  • Of the book who was standing in front of them.
  • 00:06:57.602 --> 00:06:59.771
  • In fact, they rejected him.
  • 00:06:59.771 --> 00:07:01.273
  • Now, the bible says that jesus left judea after this.
  • 00:07:01.273 --> 00:07:05.544
  • In other words, let me just tell you this.
  • 00:07:05.544 --> 00:07:07.679
  • Love, when love is rejected, all right,
  • 00:07:07.679 --> 00:07:12.851
  • God's love does not get bitter.
  • 00:07:12.851 --> 00:07:16.788
  • Love being love, if it gets bitter,
  • 00:07:16.788 --> 00:07:19.591
  • That means it wasn't unconditional
  • 00:07:19.591 --> 00:07:21.059
  • In the first place.
  • 00:07:21.059 --> 00:07:22.527
  • God's love is not like man's love.
  • 00:07:22.527 --> 00:07:23.862
  • Man's love gets bitter, it gets provoked, it gets angry.
  • 00:07:23.862 --> 00:07:27.966
  • In fact, sometimes when someone gets rejected
  • 00:07:27.966 --> 00:07:29.701
  • By the one he loves, her love becomes hatred, you know?
  • 00:07:29.701 --> 00:07:34.873
  • Even murderous sometimes.
  • 00:07:34.873 --> 00:07:36.308
  • So god's love is not like that.
  • 00:07:36.308 --> 00:07:37.742
  • What god does is that he just turn his back
  • 00:07:37.742 --> 00:07:39.311
  • On those who reject him and he still got a lot of love.
  • 00:07:39.311 --> 00:07:42.280
  • Somebody else will get it.
  • 00:07:42.280 --> 00:07:44.883
  • I say somebody else will get it, all right?
  • 00:07:44.883 --> 00:07:46.952
  • If you'd reject grace, you say that i don't believe
  • 00:07:46.952 --> 00:07:49.654
  • In this message of grace, whatever,
  • 00:07:49.654 --> 00:07:51.489
  • God will just go somewhere and look for people
  • 00:07:51.489 --> 00:07:53.558
  • That will receive his grace.
  • 00:07:53.558 --> 00:07:55.560
  • And god is so full of goodness and full he grace
  • 00:07:55.560 --> 00:07:57.696
  • That he wants to pour it on you.
  • 00:07:57.696 --> 00:08:00.832
  • How many of you are ready to receive god's grace?
  • 00:08:00.832 --> 00:08:03.368
  • You know, god just put a little, little bitty grace,
  • 00:08:03.368 --> 00:08:05.737
  • A bit of favor on you, and things happen for you,
  • 00:08:05.737 --> 00:08:09.040
  • To you, amen.
  • 00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:11.576
  • I know what it's like.
  • 00:08:11.576 --> 00:08:12.911
  • Just, god, you know, one moment of favor
  • 00:08:12.911 --> 00:08:15.080
  • Is worth 10 years of labor.
  • 00:08:15.080 --> 00:08:17.549
  • Just a bit of favor god puts on you.
  • 00:08:17.549 --> 00:08:19.718
  • That's it, man, all right?
  • 00:08:19.718 --> 00:08:21.152
  • Things happen for you, around you, amen.
  • 00:08:21.152 --> 00:08:24.389
  • But people who are proud and they want to achieve
  • 00:08:24.389 --> 00:08:26.591
  • Their own righteousness,
  • 00:08:26.591 --> 00:08:28.259
  • They want to do their own thing, they are so capable,
  • 00:08:28.259 --> 00:08:30.795
  • You don't need god, you don't need a savior.
  • 00:08:30.795 --> 00:08:32.731
  • You can save yourself, amen?
  • 00:08:32.731 --> 00:08:35.266
  • But those who say, "i need someone to help me,
  • 00:08:35.266 --> 00:08:38.103
  • I need a savior," jesus comes and says, "i'm your savior.
  • 00:08:38.103 --> 00:08:41.973
  • I am the promised one."
  • 00:08:41.973 --> 00:08:43.308
  • Are you listening, people?
  • 00:08:43.308 --> 00:08:44.743
  • So if you look carefully at john 3 and john 4,
  • 00:08:44.743 --> 00:08:46.678
  • You find that jesus is comfortable
  • 00:08:46.678 --> 00:08:49.547
  • With the samaritan woman.
  • 00:08:49.547 --> 00:08:51.683
  • But with the theologian nicodemus,
  • 00:08:51.683 --> 00:08:54.219
  • Jesus actually rebuked him.
  • 00:08:54.219 --> 00:08:56.655
  • You know how he approached jesus?
  • 00:08:56.655 --> 00:08:58.023
  • Look at verse 2.
  • 00:08:58.023 --> 00:09:00.225
  • He came to jesus and his first words were,
  • 00:09:00.225 --> 00:09:01.960
  • "rabbi, we know--"
  • 00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:04.429
  • They always know one.
  • 00:09:04.429 --> 00:09:07.098
  • They never come saying that "i need to know how,"
  • 00:09:07.098 --> 00:09:10.135
  • "i need to learn," but they always come saying, "we know."
  • 00:09:10.135 --> 00:09:13.171
  • "we know grace is from god, pastor prince,
  • 00:09:13.171 --> 00:09:15.340
  • But we know, we know."
  • 00:09:15.340 --> 00:09:20.945
  • And so jesus says, "you must be born again."
  • 00:09:20.945 --> 00:09:25.116
  • Everything about you, all that you have learned,
  • 00:09:25.116 --> 00:09:27.118
  • Must literally be born again.
  • 00:09:27.118 --> 00:09:30.689
  • Oh man, how that crushed his ego, all right?
  • 00:09:30.689 --> 00:09:33.258
  • How that humbled him.
  • 00:09:33.258 --> 00:09:34.793
  • But many of us, we need to be humbled
  • 00:09:34.793 --> 00:09:36.127
  • Before we can receive grace
  • 00:09:36.127 --> 00:09:37.696
  • Because to the degree that we are proud, grace cannot flow.
  • 00:09:37.696 --> 00:09:40.799
  • Just like water seeks the lowest places, so grace,
  • 00:09:40.799 --> 00:09:45.036
  • God gives grace to the lowly, to the humble.
  • 00:09:45.036 --> 00:09:49.107
  • Are you listening, people, all right?
  • 00:09:49.107 --> 00:09:51.142
  • In john 3, you have jesus correcting a master of israel,
  • 00:09:51.142 --> 00:09:56.648
  • All right?
  • 00:09:56.648 --> 00:09:58.083
  • But in john 4, jesus did expose the woman's sin
  • 00:09:58.083 --> 00:10:00.685
  • But not in judgment, but in love.
  • 00:10:00.685 --> 00:10:04.122
  • I'm getting ahead of myself but let's see what jesus did,
  • 00:10:04.122 --> 00:10:06.491
  • All right?
  • 00:10:06.491 --> 00:10:07.859
  • In john chapter 4: "he left judea,"
  • 00:10:07.859 --> 00:10:10.395
  • Don't forget why he left judea, they rejected him,
  • 00:10:10.395 --> 00:10:12.764
  • "and departed again to galilee.
  • 00:10:12.764 --> 00:10:14.733
  • But he needed to go through samaria."
  • 00:10:14.733 --> 00:10:17.368
  • I love that phrase.
  • 00:10:17.368 --> 00:10:19.070
  • You know, "he needed to go through samaria."
  • 00:10:19.070 --> 00:10:21.673
  • Why is that word "needed" there?
  • 00:10:21.673 --> 00:10:23.975
  • In the old king james, "he must needs go through samaria,"
  • 00:10:23.975 --> 00:10:29.147
  • Because that woman was there.
  • 00:10:29.147 --> 00:10:32.283
  • The savior having been rejected by his own people,
  • 00:10:32.283 --> 00:10:37.388
  • Had so much grace, so much love,
  • 00:10:37.388 --> 00:10:39.758
  • That he knew there's a woman who needed that love.
  • 00:10:39.758 --> 00:10:42.994
  • And that woman had been looking for love
  • 00:10:42.994 --> 00:10:45.230
  • In all the wrong places.
  • 00:10:45.230 --> 00:10:46.865
  • She had five husbands and she was living currently
  • 00:10:46.865 --> 00:10:50.835
  • In adultery.
  • 00:10:50.835 --> 00:10:53.338
  • People say things like if someone had five husbands
  • 00:10:53.338 --> 00:10:55.907
  • And they are now living in adultery,
  • 00:10:55.907 --> 00:10:58.409
  • It means divorced all the five and now living in adultery,
  • 00:10:58.409 --> 00:11:02.113
  • You know, i don't think jesus would come to find them.
  • 00:11:02.113 --> 00:11:04.649
  • Here you have a story.
  • 00:11:04.649 --> 00:11:06.117
  • "he must needs--he must needs to go through samaria."
  • 00:11:06.117 --> 00:11:11.189
  • He needed to go through samaria.
  • 00:11:11.189 --> 00:11:13.792
  • John 3, the theologian sought jesus.
  • 00:11:13.792 --> 00:11:16.027
  • John 4, jesus sought the sinner.
  • 00:11:16.027 --> 00:11:19.230
  • Don't you just love him?
  • 00:11:19.230 --> 00:11:20.865
  • All right, the bible says, back to john 4:
  • 00:11:20.865 --> 00:11:23.101
  • "so he came to a city of samaria which is called sychar,
  • 00:11:23.101 --> 00:11:25.236
  • Near the plot of ground that jacob
  • 00:11:25.236 --> 00:11:26.571
  • Gave to his son joseph."
  • 00:11:26.571 --> 00:11:27.906
  • And jesus was sitting at the well,
  • 00:11:27.906 --> 00:11:29.607
  • Waiting for the woman, and she came in
  • 00:11:29.607 --> 00:11:31.576
  • The noonday's heat of the sun to draw water.
  • 00:11:31.576 --> 00:11:34.746
  • Most women would not come during that time.
  • 00:11:34.746 --> 00:11:37.415
  • It's very hot in israel in the noon day
  • 00:11:37.415 --> 00:11:40.618
  • For most part of the year.
  • 00:11:40.618 --> 00:11:42.153
  • So most of them would come in the morning
  • 00:11:42.153 --> 00:11:44.756
  • When it's cool to draw water.
  • 00:11:44.756 --> 00:11:46.591
  • So you'll find many women there, okay?
  • 00:11:46.591 --> 00:11:49.294
  • But she came by herself in the noonday sun
  • 00:11:49.294 --> 00:11:53.698
  • When she knew that no one will be there.
  • 00:11:53.698 --> 00:11:58.303
  • You know, yesterday i was preparing this.
  • 00:11:58.303 --> 00:12:00.972
  • The lord had me write this down in my notebook:
  • 00:12:00.972 --> 00:12:03.241
  • "there's no misery like a lonely heart."
  • 00:12:03.241 --> 00:12:07.278
  • A lonely heart doesn't mean you're not married
  • 00:12:07.278 --> 00:12:10.148
  • Or you don't have a partner.
  • 00:12:10.148 --> 00:12:11.583
  • You can have a partner and be married
  • 00:12:11.583 --> 00:12:13.017
  • And still have a lonely heart.
  • 00:12:13.017 --> 00:12:15.420
  • Some of you found out already.
  • 00:12:15.420 --> 00:12:18.189
  • Loneliness is not a question of presence or absence
  • 00:12:18.189 --> 00:12:22.360
  • Of a human person beside you.
  • 00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:25.430
  • Loneliness is a state of the heart that is empty.
  • 00:12:25.430 --> 00:12:29.500
  • And the lord says there's no misery like a lonely heart.
  • 00:12:29.500 --> 00:12:33.504
  • "and son, would you like to know the cure,
  • 00:12:33.504 --> 00:12:35.073
  • So you can tell my people tomorrow?"
  • 00:12:35.073 --> 00:12:36.608
  • I said yes.
  • 00:12:36.608 --> 00:12:37.976
  • "the cure is to be alone with jesus."
  • 00:12:37.976 --> 00:12:42.513
  • The cure is to be alone with jesus.
  • 00:12:42.513 --> 00:12:45.516
  • Now, that means loneliness is different from aloneness.
  • 00:12:45.516 --> 00:12:51.189
  • Jesus wants time alone with you, amen?
  • 00:12:51.189 --> 00:12:56.961
  • The cure to a lonely heart is to be alone with jesus.
  • 00:12:56.961 --> 00:13:01.366
  • In fact, god arranged it in such a way
  • 00:13:01.366 --> 00:13:04.335
  • That even jesus's disciples were not there.
  • 00:13:04.335 --> 00:13:07.505
  • They had to go away.
  • 00:13:07.505 --> 00:13:09.374
  • Yeah, they went away thinking they are going to buy food.
  • 00:13:09.374 --> 00:13:12.210
  • But god arranged everything so that woman can be alone
  • 00:13:12.210 --> 00:13:17.115
  • With the wonderful shepherd who sought her, amen?
  • 00:13:17.115 --> 00:13:23.521
  • The cure for a lonely heart is to be alone with jesus,
  • 00:13:23.521 --> 00:13:27.525
  • Who knows everything about you, but yet draws so near to you,
  • 00:13:27.525 --> 00:13:32.363
  • A god who stooped down so low to even be dependent
  • 00:13:32.363 --> 00:13:36.601
  • On her for a drop of water, to quench his thirst.
  • 00:13:36.601 --> 00:13:41.039
  • What a god.
  • 00:13:41.039 --> 00:13:43.074
  • What a god, amen?
  • 00:13:43.074 --> 00:13:45.443
  • And he says to her, "give me water to drink."
  • 00:13:45.443 --> 00:13:47.946
  • And she says, "how come you're a jew asking me, a samaritan,
  • 00:13:47.946 --> 00:13:52.684
  • For water?"
  • 00:13:52.684 --> 00:13:54.118
  • The jews have no dealings with samaritans.
  • 00:13:54.118 --> 00:13:56.287
  • And jesus says, "woman, if you knew who is the one
  • 00:13:56.287 --> 00:13:58.556
  • Talking with you, and who is it that says to you,
  • 00:13:58.556 --> 00:14:02.760
  • 'give me the drink,' you would ask him,
  • 00:14:02.760 --> 00:14:06.064
  • And he will give you living waters."
  • 00:14:06.064 --> 00:14:09.867
  • And she says, "how can you do it?
  • 00:14:09.867 --> 00:14:11.536
  • You don't have any rope, nothing,
  • 00:14:11.536 --> 00:14:12.870
  • How can you draw from this deep well?"
  • 00:14:12.870 --> 00:14:14.772
  • And jesus says, "the water that you drink from here,
  • 00:14:14.772 --> 00:14:18.109
  • You will thirst again," all right?
  • 00:14:18.109 --> 00:14:20.578
  • Now don't forget, later on, we find out
  • 00:14:20.578 --> 00:14:22.013
  • That she had had five husbands,
  • 00:14:22.013 --> 00:14:23.548
  • So do you think jesus was talking about the water?
  • 00:14:23.548 --> 00:14:26.217
  • "when you drink this water, you will thirst again?"
  • 00:14:26.217 --> 00:14:28.252
  • Obviously, he's talking about her search for love.
  • 00:14:28.252 --> 00:14:32.323
  • Her thirst for true love.
  • 00:14:32.323 --> 00:14:34.325
  • If you drink from human relationships,
  • 00:14:34.325 --> 00:14:36.461
  • All right, just solely from human relationships,
  • 00:14:36.461 --> 00:14:39.397
  • You can be thirsty again.
  • 00:14:39.397 --> 00:14:41.032
  • But jesus says, "but if you ask me, i'll produce in you a well
  • 00:14:41.032 --> 00:14:46.504
  • Of living waters and you will never thirst again."
  • 00:14:46.504 --> 00:14:50.308
  • So a lot of people, they have a thirst.
  • 00:14:50.308 --> 00:14:51.642
  • I'm not talking about physical thirst,
  • 00:14:51.642 --> 00:14:53.177
  • I'm talking about emotional thirst, spiritual thirst.
  • 00:14:53.177 --> 00:14:56.047
  • You know, they think that thirst can be quenched
  • 00:14:56.047 --> 00:14:57.882
  • By going for a holiday.
  • 00:14:57.882 --> 00:14:59.684
  • They come back thirsty, sometimes more thirsty.
  • 00:14:59.684 --> 00:15:01.953
  • They feel like the thirst can be quenched
  • 00:15:01.953 --> 00:15:03.888
  • By getting into a relationship, illicit even.
  • 00:15:03.888 --> 00:15:08.893
  • But the thirst is not quenched.
  • 00:15:08.893 --> 00:15:10.495
  • So they are looking for the quenching of their thirst
  • 00:15:10.495 --> 00:15:13.865
  • Outside them when jesus says, "i'll produce inside you a well,
  • 00:15:13.865 --> 00:15:19.704
  • Springing up into everlasting life."
  • 00:15:19.704 --> 00:15:22.607
  • Are you listening?
  • 00:15:22.607 --> 00:15:23.941
  • When you're alone with jesus, i can't tell you
  • 00:15:23.941 --> 00:15:25.376
  • The number of times,
  • 00:15:25.376 --> 00:15:26.711
  • You feel like something is flowing on the inside, amen?
  • 00:15:26.711 --> 00:15:29.781
  • And when you meet people, you just speak,
  • 00:15:29.781 --> 00:15:31.849
  • People are refreshed.
  • 00:15:31.849 --> 00:15:33.184
  • People are blessed.
  • 00:15:33.184 --> 00:15:34.519
  • People are helped.
  • 00:15:34.519 --> 00:15:36.020
  • They love to have you around, amen.
  • 00:15:36.020 --> 00:15:41.025
  • That woman was only concerned about her water pot.
  • 00:15:41.025 --> 00:15:45.430
  • And she says, "oh, give me this water
  • 00:15:45.430 --> 00:15:46.998
  • So that i never have to come here again and draw water."
  • 00:15:46.998 --> 00:15:49.867
  • You see her thinking?
  • 00:15:49.867 --> 00:15:51.202
  • She can't go beyond the water pot.
  • 00:15:51.202 --> 00:15:53.671
  • She is what you call natural.
  • 00:15:53.671 --> 00:15:56.774
  • So, many people come to church, all right, and--
  • 00:15:56.774 --> 00:15:59.477
  • Listen carefully.
  • 00:15:59.477 --> 00:16:00.878
  • We are not knocking this, we are not condemning this,
  • 00:16:00.878 --> 00:16:02.713
  • We are not saying this is wrong.
  • 00:16:02.713 --> 00:16:04.215
  • No, many of us come to god initially like this.
  • 00:16:04.215 --> 00:16:06.784
  • We come to god because we want god to bless our business.
  • 00:16:06.784 --> 00:16:09.654
  • We come to god because we want our bodies healed.
  • 00:16:09.654 --> 00:16:12.490
  • And it's okay, perfectly all right.
  • 00:16:12.490 --> 00:16:14.025
  • They all did that in the gospels during the time of jesus.
  • 00:16:14.025 --> 00:16:17.228
  • But notice how with divine precision and skill,
  • 00:16:17.228 --> 00:16:22.200
  • The loving savior brings her to a place where her concern
  • 00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:25.369
  • Is no more the water pot but something deeper.
  • 00:16:25.369 --> 00:16:28.039
  • Because her thirst was deeper, all right?
  • 00:16:28.039 --> 00:16:33.311
  • But at the present moment, she cannot see beyond her toil,
  • 00:16:33.311 --> 00:16:36.614
  • Cannot see beyond her water pot.
  • 00:16:36.614 --> 00:16:38.950
  • So she looks at jesus and says, "give me this water
  • 00:16:38.950 --> 00:16:41.152
  • So i never have to come here again."
  • 00:16:41.152 --> 00:16:42.553
  • All she can think of is physical water.
  • 00:16:42.553 --> 00:16:45.156
  • Then jesus says, "go call your husband here."
  • 00:16:45.156 --> 00:16:48.893
  • She look at jesus, "i have no husband."
  • 00:16:48.893 --> 00:16:52.163
  • Jesus looked at her and this is what i call the divine sandwich.
  • 00:16:52.163 --> 00:16:54.832
  • You heard me share this, all right?
  • 00:16:54.832 --> 00:16:56.901
  • He said to her this: "you have well said, 'i have no husband.'"
  • 00:16:56.901 --> 00:17:00.805
  • So, he complimented her first.
  • 00:17:00.805 --> 00:17:02.673
  • "you have well said," the word "well said," well is "kalos"
  • 00:17:02.673 --> 00:17:05.843
  • In greek which actually, literally,
  • 00:17:05.843 --> 00:17:07.912
  • "you have beautifully said," you have no husband.
  • 00:17:07.912 --> 00:17:11.816
  • I can't imagine a preacher today telling someone
  • 00:17:11.816 --> 00:17:13.284
  • Who is living in adultery,
  • 00:17:13.284 --> 00:17:14.852
  • "you have beautifully said you have no husband."
  • 00:17:14.852 --> 00:17:18.122
  • It's more like, "you, you--" you know?
  • 00:17:18.122 --> 00:17:19.790
  • It's like, this is jesus of the bible!
  • 00:17:19.790 --> 00:17:23.995
  • Amen, now, is adultery wrong?
  • 00:17:23.995 --> 00:17:27.298
  • Yeah, of course, but notice how he brings her out of it,
  • 00:17:27.298 --> 00:17:31.536
  • Not with condemnation.
  • 00:17:31.536 --> 00:17:33.571
  • Later on she'll realize that she's in the presence of someone
  • 00:17:33.571 --> 00:17:36.374
  • Who knows all about her sin and yet not judge her.
  • 00:17:36.374 --> 00:17:42.046
  • Yet not repelled by the sin, amen?
  • 00:17:42.046 --> 00:17:47.852
  • Jesus says, "you have well said you have no husband.
  • 00:17:47.852 --> 00:17:49.787
  • You have had five husbands, and the one
  • 00:17:49.787 --> 00:17:51.656
  • Whom you are now living with is not your husband;
  • 00:17:51.656 --> 00:17:54.425
  • In that you spoke truly."
  • 00:17:54.425 --> 00:17:57.261
  • Here comes the next compliment.
  • 00:17:57.261 --> 00:17:58.863
  • The first one: "you have beautifully said."
  • 00:17:58.863 --> 00:18:00.531
  • The last one: "you said honestly."
  • 00:18:00.531 --> 00:18:04.869
  • Now john 3, nicodemus, he says,
  • 00:18:04.869 --> 00:18:07.338
  • "how can these things be, 'born again'?
  • 00:18:07.338 --> 00:18:09.674
  • Can a man go a second time into his mother's womb?"
  • 00:18:09.674 --> 00:18:11.142
  • And jesus says, "are you a master, the master in israel
  • 00:18:11.142 --> 00:18:14.779
  • And you do not know these things?"
  • 00:18:14.779 --> 00:18:17.715
  • So, for the theologian, he humbled him.
  • 00:18:17.715 --> 00:18:21.953
  • For the sinner, he lifted her.
  • 00:18:21.953 --> 00:18:26.324
  • Are you listening, people?
  • 00:18:26.324 --> 00:18:27.758
  • We are defensive, people, because we have no assurance
  • 00:18:27.758 --> 00:18:30.528
  • That our sins are forgiven.
  • 00:18:30.528 --> 00:18:32.763
  • That's why we are defensive.
  • 00:18:32.763 --> 00:18:34.432
  • When a businessman owes a lot of money to the bank
  • 00:18:34.432 --> 00:18:38.736
  • And owes a lot of people, all right,
  • 00:18:38.736 --> 00:18:41.606
  • A huge financial obligation, all right, he has a huge debt.
  • 00:18:41.606 --> 00:18:48.179
  • When he comes in the office,
  • 00:18:48.179 --> 00:18:49.513
  • He doesn't want to open his financial ledger.
  • 00:18:49.513 --> 00:18:51.115
  • Why?
  • 00:18:51.115 --> 00:18:52.450
  • It's all red.
  • 00:18:52.450 --> 00:18:53.851
  • The more he looks, the more he's filled with despair.
  • 00:18:53.851 --> 00:18:57.655
  • So he tells his secretary, "you just look through it
  • 00:18:57.655 --> 00:18:59.323
  • And whatever is right now, you just, you got money to pay,
  • 00:18:59.323 --> 00:19:02.460
  • You just pay from the account.
  • 00:19:02.460 --> 00:19:04.528
  • I don't want to see it."
  • 00:19:04.528 --> 00:19:05.930
  • "would you like to know how much--"
  • 00:19:05.930 --> 00:19:07.265
  • "no, no, don't tell me how much we owe."
  • 00:19:07.265 --> 00:19:08.733
  • He doesn't even want-- it fills him with dread
  • 00:19:08.733 --> 00:19:10.301
  • To even look at the financial ledger, okay?
  • 00:19:10.301 --> 00:19:14.338
  • One day, an old friend who is now very wealthy, a tycoon,
  • 00:19:14.338 --> 00:19:21.245
  • Hears about his predicament and the guy decides
  • 00:19:21.245 --> 00:19:23.281
  • To pay off everything, all right?
  • 00:19:23.281 --> 00:19:26.517
  • Pay off everything with plenty left over,
  • 00:19:26.517 --> 00:19:29.253
  • Give him an extra million
  • 00:19:29.253 --> 00:19:31.122
  • So his heart doesn't have to be worried anymore
  • 00:19:31.122 --> 00:19:32.823
  • About future debt, wow!
  • 00:19:32.823 --> 00:19:36.394
  • Guess what?
  • 00:19:36.394 --> 00:19:37.828
  • When he comes to the office, no one is there.
  • 00:19:37.828 --> 00:19:39.230
  • He sees the financial ledger.
  • 00:19:39.230 --> 00:19:40.598
  • He opens up.
  • 00:19:40.598 --> 00:19:41.966
  • He knows he's paid already.
  • 00:19:41.966 --> 00:19:43.434
  • "wow, i didn't know i owed that much.
  • 00:19:43.434 --> 00:19:44.935
  • Look at that.
  • 00:19:44.935 --> 00:19:46.270
  • Wooo! woohoo!
  • 00:19:46.270 --> 00:19:48.139
  • Look at that! this is crazy!
  • 00:19:48.139 --> 00:19:49.674
  • Thank god i didn't know about all this.
  • 00:19:49.674 --> 00:19:51.442
  • I've gone bonkers.
  • 00:19:51.442 --> 00:19:52.910
  • I've gone insane.
  • 00:19:52.910 --> 00:19:54.512
  • I didn't know i owed that much."
  • 00:19:54.512 --> 00:19:56.080
  • But now he's looking, he's laughing.
  • 00:19:56.080 --> 00:19:57.548
  • Why?
  • 00:19:57.548 --> 00:19:58.983
  • The more he sees, the more it fills him with gratefulness
  • 00:19:58.983 --> 00:20:06.457
  • To his benefactor, the one who paid off his debt.
  • 00:20:06.457 --> 00:20:10.461
  • What i'm trying to say is this.
  • 00:20:10.461 --> 00:20:12.330
  • We got no problem being frank about our sins.
  • 00:20:12.330 --> 00:20:16.567
  • Call it confess your sins.
  • 00:20:16.567 --> 00:20:18.169
  • We got no problem if we know our sins are forgiven.
  • 00:20:18.169 --> 00:20:20.838
  • We don't have to defend anymore.
  • 00:20:20.838 --> 00:20:22.406
  • In fact, if we find ourselves, "hey, i got this problem,
  • 00:20:22.406 --> 00:20:24.308
  • Pray for me.
  • 00:20:24.308 --> 00:20:25.810
  • I got this.
  • 00:20:25.810 --> 00:20:27.144
  • No, i feel like-- i still feel very sensitive.
  • 00:20:27.144 --> 00:20:28.579
  • It's not your fault, darling, it's me.
  • 00:20:28.579 --> 00:20:30.748
  • Pray for me."
  • 00:20:30.748 --> 00:20:32.316
  • You can talk about it like that.
  • 00:20:32.316 --> 00:20:34.418
  • It's all forgiven.
  • 00:20:34.418 --> 00:20:36.554
  • All your sins are forgiven.
  • 00:20:36.554 --> 00:20:38.089
  • There's no more ledger of debt left, amen.
  • 00:20:38.089 --> 00:20:44.895
  • When you look at it, it's all p-a-i-d, hallelujah.
  • 00:20:44.895 --> 00:20:49.567
  • "but what if i lose my cool tonight, pastor prince?"
  • 00:20:49.567 --> 00:20:51.836
  • It's forgiven.
  • 00:20:51.836 --> 00:20:53.938
  • Now some people think that if you believe this,
  • 00:20:53.938 --> 00:20:56.474
  • You are giving people license to sin,
  • 00:20:56.474 --> 00:20:57.842
  • But jesus said it differently.
  • 00:20:57.842 --> 00:20:59.677
  • Jesus believed that when people know they are forgiven much,
  • 00:20:59.677 --> 00:21:03.481
  • They will love him much.
  • 00:21:03.481 --> 00:21:05.950
  • And that woman became an immediate evangelist
  • 00:21:05.950 --> 00:21:07.752
  • Because she knew she was forgiven much.
  • 00:21:07.752 --> 00:21:14.091
  • I don't know about you, man, but there are times
  • 00:21:14.091 --> 00:21:16.994
  • I just crave to be alone with jesus.
  • 00:21:16.994 --> 00:21:21.699
  • And when you're alone with jesus, stop and think,
  • 00:21:21.699 --> 00:21:24.034
  • "this man knows everything about me."
  • 00:21:24.034 --> 00:21:26.937
  • And he craves aloneness with you.
  • 00:21:26.937 --> 00:21:31.542
  • Not that you always have to, you know,
  • 00:21:31.542 --> 00:21:33.277
  • Spend time without anyone around.
  • 00:21:33.277 --> 00:21:35.112
  • For a mother, it's kind of hard with young children
  • 00:21:35.112 --> 00:21:37.014
  • And all that.
  • 00:21:37.014 --> 00:21:38.382
  • I understand that.
  • 00:21:38.382 --> 00:21:39.750
  • But i'm just saying, inwardly just know that this person
  • 00:21:39.750 --> 00:21:42.052
  • Will understand you like no one else can, amen?
