Share with you about the parallels of the land of israel,

Parallels of the land of israel, the land of god, and the book of
00:01:05.340 --> 00:01:07.042
The land of god, and the book of god, the bible.
00:01:07.109 --> 00:01:09.178
God, the bible. the land and the book.

Are you ready? the land of israel
00:01:12.381 --> 00:01:13.448
The land of israel and the book of god,
00:01:13.515 --> 00:01:14.950
And the book of god, and you see the parallels.
00:01:15.017 --> 00:01:16.985
Let's look at deuteronomy
00:01:17.052 --> 00:01:17.653
Let's look at deuteronomy chapter 8 right now.
00:01:17.719 --> 00:01:18.420
Chapter 8 right now. it says, "for the lord thy god
00:01:18.487 --> 00:01:19.855
It says, "for the lord thy god brings you into a good land."
00:01:19.922 --> 00:01:21.456
Brings you into a good land." say, "a good land."
00:01:21.523 --> 00:01:23.992
Say, "a good land." by the way,
00:01:24.059 --> 00:01:26.028
This is a good book.
00:01:26.094 --> 00:01:27.196
This is a good book. you know, there's a phrase in
00:01:27.262 --> 00:01:28.197
You know, there's a phrase in the bible from hebrews 6 that
00:01:28.263 --> 00:01:29.965
The bible from hebrews 6 that says, "and tasted the good word
00:01:30.032 --> 00:01:32.801
Says, "and tasted the good word of god."
00:01:32.868 --> 00:01:34.436
Of god." this book has inherent goodness.
00:01:34.503 --> 00:01:36.538
This book has inherent goodness. it will do you good, and when
00:01:36.605 --> 00:01:38.907
It will do you good, and when you feed on it, it's nothing
00:01:38.974 --> 00:01:40.275
You feed on it, it's nothing but good.
00:01:40.342 --> 00:01:41.476
But good. sometimes you eat some food,
00:01:41.543 --> 00:01:42.711
Sometimes you eat some food, right, and then in between, you
00:01:42.778 --> 00:01:44.012
Right, and then in between, you read cholesterol this amount,
00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:45.814
Read cholesterol this amount, sugar this amount.
00:01:45.881 --> 00:01:47.049
Sugar this amount. those are bad--trans fat
00:01:47.115 --> 00:01:48.383
Those are bad--trans fat this amount.
00:01:48.450 --> 00:01:49.051
This amount. those things are not
00:01:49.117 --> 00:01:49.918
Those things are not good, right?
00:01:49.985 --> 00:01:53.255
Good, right? or you all don't care.
00:01:53.322 --> 00:01:54.389
Or you all don't care. "pastor prince, you know, i give
00:01:54.456 --> 00:01:55.724
"pastor prince, you know, i give thanks and i just eat it,
00:01:55.791 --> 00:01:57.326
Thanks and i just eat it, all right?"
00:01:57.392 --> 00:01:57.926
All right?" yeah, but i'm just saying that
00:01:57.993 --> 00:01:59.127
Yeah, but i'm just saying that it's hard to find in the world
00:01:59.194 --> 00:02:00.362
It's hard to find in the world something that's so pure, but
00:02:00.429 --> 00:02:01.863
Something that's so pure, but here, you find it, amen.
00:02:01.930 --> 00:02:04.666
Here, you find it, amen. the good word of god.
00:02:04.733 --> 00:02:06.969
The good word of god. in fact, when joshua and caleb
00:02:07.035 --> 00:02:09.605
In fact, when joshua and caleb came out from spying the land of
00:02:09.671 --> 00:02:11.540
Came out from spying the land of israel, which god gave to them.
00:02:11.607 --> 00:02:12.975
Israel, which god gave to them. like i said, the land parallels
00:02:13.041 --> 00:02:14.376
Like i said, the land parallels with the bible.
00:02:14.443 --> 00:02:15.644
With the bible. back then, it was a physical
00:02:15.711 --> 00:02:16.878
Back then, it was a physical inheritance for them.
00:02:16.945 --> 00:02:18.313
Inheritance for them. today, for us, this book is our
00:02:18.380 --> 00:02:21.116
Today, for us, this book is our inheritance, amen.
00:02:21.183 --> 00:02:23.885
Inheritance, amen. so we're going to see what they
00:02:23.952 --> 00:02:24.820
So we're going to see what they did with the land, amen, the
00:02:24.886 --> 00:02:26.355
Did with the land, amen, the features of the land, and how it
00:02:26.421 --> 00:02:28.023
Features of the land, and how it corresponds with the word
00:02:28.090 --> 00:02:29.024
Corresponds with the word of god.
00:02:29.091 --> 00:02:30.025
Of god. i pray to excite you and open up
00:02:30.092 --> 00:02:31.560
I pray to excite you and open up your spirit to enter into the
00:02:31.627 --> 00:02:33.528
Your spirit to enter into the word of god in a fresh, new
00:02:33.595 --> 00:02:35.163
Word of god in a fresh, new way, amen, praise the lord.
00:02:35.230 --> 00:02:37.132
So it's a good land, and when
00:02:37.332 --> 00:02:38.467
So it's a good land, and when joshua and caleb came back, they
00:02:38.533 --> 00:02:39.534
Joshua and caleb came back, they said of the land, that this is--
00:02:39.601 --> 00:02:41.203
Said of the land, that this is-- "'the land we passed
00:02:41.270 --> 00:02:43.205
"'the land we passed through, to spy out is an
00:02:43.272 --> 00:02:44.906
Through, to spy out is an exceedingly good land.'"
00:02:44.973 --> 00:02:47.042
Exceedingly good land.'" not just good land, exceedingly
00:02:47.109 --> 00:02:49.444
Not just good land, exceedingly good land.
00:02:49.511 --> 00:02:50.045
Good land. let me give you the hebrew,
00:02:50.112 --> 00:02:51.546
Let me give you the hebrew, all right.
00:02:51.613 --> 00:02:52.080
All right. "tovah" means good.
00:02:52.147 --> 00:02:53.715
"tovah" means good. "haaretz" means land.
00:02:53.782 --> 00:02:55.617
"haaretz" means land. "tovah haaretz meot meot."
00:02:55.684 --> 00:02:59.221
"tovah haaretz meot meot." the word exceeding is
00:02:59.288 --> 00:03:00.922
The word exceeding is repeated twice.
00:03:00.989 --> 00:03:02.724
Repeated twice. good land, very very, and the
00:03:02.791 --> 00:03:07.496
Good land, very very, and the only one that did it is a
00:03:07.562 --> 00:03:08.463
Only one that did it is a darby's translation and a
00:03:08.530 --> 00:03:09.865
Darby's translation and a young's literal translation
00:03:09.931 --> 00:03:11.066
Young's literal translation brings that out.
00:03:11.133 --> 00:03:12.134
Brings that out. "the land to which we are passed
00:03:12.200 --> 00:03:13.235
"the land to which we are passed over to spy out, is a very, very
00:03:13.302 --> 00:03:15.804
Over to spy out, is a very, very good land."
00:03:15.871 --> 00:03:17.239
Good land." this bible, this volume, this

00:05:06.348 --> 00:05:07.349
Meet, and there are things happening around your world
00:05:07.416 --> 00:05:09.084
Happening around your world right now.
00:05:09.151 --> 00:05:09.584
Right now. you feel like you're in
00:05:09.651 --> 00:05:10.352
You feel like you're in a valley.
00:05:10.419 --> 00:05:11.119
A valley. well the bible says, "look out
00:05:11.186 --> 00:05:12.287
Well the bible says, "look out for the subterranean underneath
00:05:12.354 --> 00:05:13.855
For the subterranean underneath your feet, all right.
00:05:13.922 --> 00:05:14.856
Your feet, all right. there'll be waters gushing out,"
00:05:14.923 --> 00:05:16.825
And the word here, spring out,
00:05:17.159 --> 00:05:18.693
And the word here, spring out, is the word gush out.
00:05:18.760 --> 00:05:20.896
Is the word gush out. it's inside, but it requires for
00:05:20.962 --> 00:05:23.265
It's inside, but it requires for us to read it, tap into it,
00:05:23.331 --> 00:05:25.934
Us to read it, tap into it, until it gushes out, amen.
00:05:26.001 --> 00:05:29.838
Until it gushes out, amen. okay, so in deuteronomy it says,
00:05:29.905 --> 00:05:31.773
Okay, so in deuteronomy it says, "god brings you to a good land,
00:05:31.840 --> 00:05:32.874
"god brings you to a good land, a land of brooks of water,
00:05:32.941 --> 00:05:34.042
A land of brooks of water, fountains and depths that spring
00:05:34.109 --> 00:05:35.444
Fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills.
00:05:35.510 --> 00:05:37.446
Out of valleys and hills. land of wheat, barley, vines."
00:05:37.512 --> 00:05:39.448
Land of wheat, barley, vines." all right, vine is, you know, to
00:05:39.514 --> 00:05:40.949
All right, vine is, you know, to intoxicate you, amen.
00:05:41.016 --> 00:05:43.018
Intoxicate you, amen. i'm talking about spiritually
00:05:43.084 --> 00:05:44.019
I'm talking about spiritually speaking, okay, don't get
00:05:44.085 --> 00:05:45.020
Speaking, okay, don't get ideas now.
00:05:45.086 --> 00:05:45.854
Ideas now. back then it was physical, but
00:05:45.921 --> 00:05:47.088
Back then it was physical, but for today it is spiritual, joy.
00:05:47.155 --> 00:05:50.725
For today it is spiritual, joy. vine always speaks of joy in
00:05:50.792 --> 00:05:52.194
Vine always speaks of joy in the spirit.
00:05:52.260 --> 00:05:52.994
The spirit. fig tree speaks of
00:05:53.061 --> 00:05:54.095
Fig tree speaks of sweetness, amen.
00:05:54.162 --> 00:05:55.163
Sweetness, amen. the sweetness of god's--it's
00:05:55.230 --> 00:05:56.198
The sweetness of god's--it's all in god's word, and then
00:05:56.264 --> 00:05:57.566
All in god's word, and then pomegranate speaks
00:05:57.632 --> 00:05:58.733
Pomegranate speaks of fruitfulness.
00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:00.769
You know pomegranate
00:06:00.836 --> 00:06:01.269
You know pomegranate fruit, right?
00:06:01.336 --> 00:06:01.770
Fruit, right? like for example,
00:06:01.837 --> 00:06:02.270
Like for example, the song of songs
00:06:02.337 --> 00:06:02.871
The song of songs i talked to you about.
00:06:02.938 --> 00:06:03.605
I talked to you about. like this book, right in the
00:06:03.672 --> 00:06:04.773
Like this book, right in the middle of the heart of the book
00:06:04.840 --> 00:06:05.874
Middle of the heart of the book is the book of psalms and
00:06:05.941 --> 00:06:07.209
Is the book of psalms and poetry books.
00:06:07.275 --> 00:06:08.343
Poetry books. song of songs is there.
00:06:08.410 --> 00:06:09.377
Song of songs is there. why is it called
00:06:09.444 --> 00:06:10.178
Why is it called the song of songs?
00:06:10.245 --> 00:06:10.946
The song of songs? because it's the song of the
00:06:11.012 --> 00:06:12.280
Because it's the song of the bridegroom for his bride, our
00:06:12.347 --> 00:06:15.350
Bridegroom for his bride, our lord jesus for us, amen.
00:06:15.417 --> 00:06:17.986
Lord jesus for us, amen. so in the song of songs,
00:06:18.053 --> 00:06:19.354
So in the song of songs, it says this,
00:06:19.421 --> 00:06:21.056
It says this, "drink deeply, o my beloved."
00:06:21.122 --> 00:06:24.493
"drink deeply, o my beloved." the lord is telling us,
00:06:24.559 --> 00:06:25.560
The lord is telling us, "drink deeply, o my beloved.
00:06:25.627 --> 00:06:27.896
"drink deeply, o my beloved. eat abundantly," amen.
00:06:27.963 --> 00:06:29.764
Eat abundantly," amen. it's all found here.
00:06:29.831 --> 00:06:31.933
It's all found here. praise the lord, amen.
00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:34.169
Praise the lord, amen. you thought about god's word.
00:06:34.236 --> 00:06:35.604
You thought about god's word. god's word is so full of
00:06:35.670 --> 00:06:36.638
God's word is so full of different features.
00:06:36.705 --> 00:06:37.439
Different features. like israel, there are
00:06:37.506 --> 00:06:38.540
Like israel, there are mountains, there are valleys,
00:06:38.607 --> 00:06:39.941
Mountains, there are valleys, there is--the deepest place on
00:06:40.008 --> 00:06:42.043
There is--the deepest place on planet earth is in israel.
00:06:42.110 --> 00:06:44.079
Planet earth is in israel. the jordan valley, the dead sea.
00:06:44.145 --> 00:06:45.914
The jordan valley, the dead sea. some of you have floated in the
00:06:45.981 --> 00:06:47.048
Some of you have floated in the dead sea.
00:06:47.115 --> 00:06:47.582
Dead sea. how many of you have been in the
00:06:47.649 --> 00:06:48.650
How many of you have been in the dead sea, all right?
00:06:48.717 --> 00:06:50.018
Dead sea, all right? okay, you have floated in the
00:06:50.085 --> 00:06:50.886
Okay, you have floated in the dead sea, right?
00:06:50.952 --> 00:06:51.987
Dead sea, right? it is so dense and, you know,
00:06:52.053 --> 00:06:53.455
It is so dense and, you know, the chemicals and all that, you
00:06:53.522 --> 00:06:54.823
The chemicals and all that, you cannot actually sink, but
00:06:54.890 --> 00:06:58.827
Cannot actually sink, but nothing is alive
00:06:58.894 --> 00:06:59.361
Nothing is alive in the dead sea.
00:06:59.427 --> 00:07:00.161
In the dead sea. so even the land, like i said,
00:07:00.228 --> 00:07:01.630
So even the land, like i said, i'm drawing a parallel between
00:07:01.696 --> 00:07:02.864
I'm drawing a parallel between the land and the word.
00:07:02.931 --> 00:07:04.966
The land and the word. you look at the land of israel,
00:07:05.033 --> 00:07:06.401
You look at the land of israel, there are lessons there for us
00:07:06.468 --> 00:07:07.536
There are lessons there for us to learn, right?
00:07:07.602 --> 00:07:09.604
To learn, right? even lessons to teach kids, to
00:07:09.671 --> 00:07:12.107
Even lessons to teach kids, to teach children.
00:07:12.173 --> 00:07:12.941
Teach children. for example, the dead sea.
00:07:13.008 --> 00:07:14.743
For example, the dead sea. why is it called the dead sea
00:07:14.809 --> 00:07:15.877
Why is it called the dead sea and why is there no fish in the
00:07:15.944 --> 00:07:17.145
And why is there no fish in the dead sea?
00:07:17.212 --> 00:07:18.113
Dead sea? why, because it has inlet, it
00:07:18.179 --> 00:07:21.750
Why, because it has inlet, it has no outlet.
00:07:21.816 --> 00:07:24.219
Has no outlet. so you've always receive and
00:07:24.286 --> 00:07:25.654
So you've always receive and receive, and never give.
00:07:25.720 --> 00:07:26.621
Receive, and never give. you're never generous.
00:07:26.688 --> 00:07:27.989
You're never generous. you're dead, amen.
00:07:28.056 --> 00:07:32.093
You're dead, amen. but going northward in israel,
00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:33.895
But going northward in israel, if you're facing you the map of
00:07:33.962 --> 00:07:35.230
If you're facing you the map of israel, going northward, you go
00:07:35.297 --> 00:07:36.665
Israel, going northward, you go to galilee.
00:07:36.731 --> 00:07:37.499
To galilee. there's a lake called
00:07:37.566 --> 00:07:38.099
There's a lake called lake of galilee,
00:07:38.166 --> 00:07:39.467
Lake of galilee, the sea of galilee, and
00:07:39.534 --> 00:07:41.570
The sea of galilee, and it is thriving with fish.
00:07:41.636 --> 00:07:43.538
It is thriving with fish. that's where jesus did the
00:07:43.605 --> 00:07:44.639
That's where jesus did the miracle of a net breaking, boat
00:07:44.706 --> 00:07:46.708
Miracle of a net breaking, boat sinking, load of fishes for
00:07:46.775 --> 00:07:48.977
Sinking, load of fishes for the disciples.
00:07:49.044 --> 00:07:49.711
The disciples. remember that?
00:07:49.778 --> 00:07:50.879
Remember that? and some of you have tasted the
00:07:50.946 --> 00:07:52.347
And some of you have tasted the descendants of the fish when you
00:07:52.414 --> 00:07:55.684
Descendants of the fish when you are there, amen.
00:07:55.750 --> 00:07:57.619
Are there, amen. we love it with the head and the
00:07:57.686 --> 00:07:58.687
We love it with the head and the tail, right?
00:07:58.753 --> 00:07:59.754
Tail, right? not the filet type.
00:07:59.821 --> 00:08:01.556
Not the filet type. hey, come on!
00:08:01.623 --> 00:08:02.891
Hey, come on! come on, amen?
00:08:02.958 --> 00:08:04.192
Come on, amen? why is the dead sea--why is the
00:08:04.259 --> 00:08:05.694
Why is the dead sea--why is the dead sea dead?
00:08:05.760 --> 00:08:06.895
Dead sea dead? no fish, not a single fish can
00:08:06.962 --> 00:08:08.430
No fish, not a single fish can survive there.
00:08:08.496 --> 00:08:09.564
Survive there. nothing living survives in the
00:08:09.631 --> 00:08:10.665
Nothing living survives in the dead sea, but in the sea of
00:08:10.732 --> 00:08:12.434
Dead sea, but in the sea of galilee, just north, it's alive.
00:08:12.500 --> 00:08:15.704
Galilee, just north, it's alive. teeming with fishes.
00:08:15.770 --> 00:08:17.572
Teeming with fishes. why, because it has inlet and it
00:08:17.639 --> 00:08:19.808
Why, because it has inlet and it has outlet.
00:08:19.874 --> 00:08:21.576
Has outlet. you see, it's fresh.
00:08:21.643 --> 00:08:24.412
You see, it's fresh. fresh water, why?
00:08:24.479 --> 00:08:26.114
Fresh water, why? because it's always flowing.
00:08:26.181 --> 00:08:28.049
Because it's always flowing. you're not just receiving,
00:08:28.116 --> 00:08:28.783
You're not just receiving, receiving, receiving, amen.
00:08:28.850 --> 00:08:33.254
Receiving, receiving, amen. see friend, god knows if he can
00:08:33.321 --> 00:08:35.924
See friend, god knows if he can get things through you, he will
00:08:35.991 --> 00:08:38.793
Get things through you, he will definitely get things to you.
00:08:38.860 --> 00:08:42.197
Definitely get things to you. he can trust you.
00:08:42.263 --> 00:08:43.565
He can trust you. he can trust you.
00:08:43.632 --> 00:08:46.001
He can trust you. be flowing, be a channel.
00:08:46.067 --> 00:08:47.736
Be flowing, be a channel. don't love money.
00:08:47.802 --> 00:08:48.269
Don't love money. use it for god's glory, amen.
00:08:48.336 --> 00:08:50.905
Use it for god's glory, amen. amen, the more you drink,
00:08:50.972 --> 00:08:52.073
Amen, the more you drink, jesus says,
00:08:52.140 --> 00:08:52.941
Jesus says, "if any man thirsts,
00:08:53.008 --> 00:08:53.708
"if any man thirsts, let him come to me and drink."
00:08:53.775 --> 00:08:55.143
Let him come to me and drink." many a times i'll pray when i
00:08:55.210 --> 00:08:56.344
Many a times i'll pray when i open the bible, i say,
00:08:56.411 --> 00:08:57.212
Open the bible, i say, "lord jesus, i come to you in
00:08:57.278 --> 00:08:58.179
"lord jesus, i come to you in your word.
00:08:58.246 --> 00:08:59.414
Your word. i come to you in your word."
00:08:59.481 --> 00:09:00.649
I come to you in your word." when i come to him, what do
00:09:00.715 --> 00:09:01.883
When i come to him, what do i do?
00:09:01.950 --> 00:09:02.617
I do? it's for my own drinking.
00:09:02.684 --> 00:09:04.419
It's for my own drinking. drinking is
00:09:04.486 --> 00:09:04.986
Drinking is personal consumption.
00:09:05.053 --> 00:09:05.887
Personal consumption. you just drink for yourself, for
00:09:05.954 --> 00:09:07.088
You just drink for yourself, for your own pleasure.
00:09:07.155 --> 00:09:07.989
Your own pleasure. drink, drink, drink,
00:09:08.056 --> 00:09:09.858
Drink, drink, drink, and jesus says,
00:09:09.924 --> 00:09:11.059
And jesus says, "out of your belly shall
00:09:11.126 --> 00:09:11.726
"out of your belly shall flow rivers of living water."
00:09:11.793 --> 00:09:13.561
Flow rivers of living water." now those rivers are for others.
00:09:13.628 --> 00:09:16.765
Now those rivers are for others. it blesses others, but drinking
00:09:16.831 --> 00:09:18.900
It blesses others, but drinking is for yourself, but when you
00:09:18.967 --> 00:09:20.402
Is for yourself, but when you keep on drinking, keep on
00:09:20.468 --> 00:09:21.403
Keep on drinking, keep on drinking, you'll have rivers
00:09:21.469 --> 00:09:22.737
Drinking, you'll have rivers flowing out of you.
00:09:22.804 --> 00:09:24.005
Flowing out of you. you are refreshing everywhere
00:09:24.072 --> 00:09:25.240
You are refreshing everywhere you go.
00:09:25.306 --> 00:09:25.940
You go. people love to be around you
00:09:26.007 --> 00:09:26.741
People love to be around you because you refresh them.
00:09:26.808 --> 00:09:28.043
Because you refresh them. it's like when they leave you,
00:09:28.109 --> 00:09:29.544
It's like when they leave you, they feel like they had a bath.
00:09:29.611 --> 00:09:32.047
They feel like they had a bath. they feel refreshed.
00:09:32.113 --> 00:09:32.881
They feel refreshed. they feel clean.
00:09:32.947 --> 00:09:34.349
They feel clean. they feel good, amen.
00:09:34.416 --> 00:09:37.786
They feel good, amen. i pray that it's true every time
00:09:37.852 --> 00:09:39.187
I pray that it's true every time you leave the church service
00:09:39.254 --> 00:09:40.388
You leave the church service as well.
00:09:40.455 --> 00:09:41.923
As well. like jesus told his disciples,
00:09:41.990 --> 00:09:43.291
Like jesus told his disciples, "now you are clean through the
00:09:43.358 --> 00:09:44.259
"now you are clean through the word which i have spoken unto
00:09:44.325 --> 00:09:45.527
Word which i have spoken unto you," amen.
00:09:45.593 --> 00:09:46.428
You," amen. can i have a good amen?
00:09:46.494 --> 00:09:48.463
Praise the lord, hallelujah, and
00:09:48.530 --> 00:09:51.066
Praise the lord, hallelujah, and god's word has--the land of
00:09:51.132 --> 00:09:52.901
God's word has--the land of israel has olive oil and honey.
00:09:52.967 --> 00:09:55.170
Israel has olive oil and honey. that means what?
00:09:55.236 --> 00:09:55.670
That means what? when you spend time
00:09:55.737 --> 00:09:56.371
When you spend time in the word of god.
00:09:56.438 --> 00:09:57.472
In the word of god. there's a verse in job
00:09:57.539 --> 00:09:58.807
There's a verse in job that says,
00:09:58.873 --> 00:09:59.708
That says, "when i wash my steps with
00:09:59.774 --> 00:10:00.742
"when i wash my steps with butter," that means what?
00:10:00.809 --> 00:10:02.711
Butter comes from what?
00:10:02.877 --> 00:10:03.945
Butter comes from what? coagulated milk, amen, and the
00:10:04.012 --> 00:10:07.215
Coagulated milk, amen, and the milk has become coagulated, and
00:10:07.282 --> 00:10:10.085
Milk has become coagulated, and it's actually from milk.
00:10:10.151 --> 00:10:11.953
It's actually from milk. so the more you find the
00:10:12.020 --> 00:10:12.987
So the more you find the richness of god's word, because
00:10:13.054 --> 00:10:14.489
Richness of god's word, because the bible says, "god brings you
00:10:14.556 --> 00:10:15.423
The bible says, "god brings you to a land flowing with milk and
00:10:15.490 --> 00:10:17.258
To a land flowing with milk and honey," and yet the bible says,
00:10:17.325 --> 00:10:18.760
Honey," and yet the bible says, "as newborn babes desire the
00:10:18.827 --> 00:10:19.994
"as newborn babes desire the sincere milk of the word," amen.
00:10:20.061 --> 00:10:21.963
So we have honey, sweetness.
00:10:22.464 --> 00:10:23.798
So we have honey, sweetness. there's sweetness
00:10:23.865 --> 00:10:24.332
There's sweetness in the word of god, amen.
00:10:24.399 --> 00:10:25.900
In the word of god, amen. do you know the bible says that
00:10:25.967 --> 00:10:26.901
Do you know the bible says that god's word is so sweet?
00:10:26.968 --> 00:10:28.069
God's word is so sweet? in psalms 119:103, it says this.
00:10:28.136 --> 00:10:31.439
In psalms 119:103, it says this. "how sweet are your words to my
00:10:31.506 --> 00:10:33.074
"how sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey in my
00:10:33.141 --> 00:10:35.777
Taste, sweeter than honey in my mouth--to my mouth," amen.
00:10:35.844 --> 00:10:38.480
Mouth--to my mouth," amen. what is sweeter than honey?
00:10:38.546 --> 00:10:39.314
What is sweeter than honey? have you tasted honey?
00:10:39.380 --> 00:10:40.815
Have you tasted honey? god's word is sweeter
00:10:40.882 --> 00:10:41.750
God's word is sweeter than honey.
00:10:41.816 --> 00:10:43.718
I pray you come to the place
00:10:43.885 --> 00:10:44.753
I pray you come to the place where you find god's word is
00:10:44.819 --> 00:10:45.920
Where you find god's word is sweeter than honey to
00:10:45.987 --> 00:10:48.223
Sweeter than honey to your mouth.
00:10:48.289 --> 00:10:49.324
Your mouth. "but pastor prince, i find it
00:10:49.390 --> 00:10:50.492
"but pastor prince, i find it very hard to start.
00:10:50.558 --> 00:10:51.426
Very hard to start. i don't know where to start and
00:10:51.493 --> 00:10:52.393
I don't know where to start and all that--" start somewhere!
00:10:52.460 --> 00:10:53.728
All that--" start somewhere! "you mean i can just
00:10:53.795 --> 00:10:54.462
"you mean i can just open anyhow?"
00:10:54.529 --> 00:10:55.263
Open anyhow?" yes!
00:10:55.330 --> 00:10:56.498
Yes! "and just read?"
00:10:56.564 --> 00:10:57.565
"and just read?" yes, amen!
00:10:57.632 --> 00:11:00.602
Yes, amen! "but pastor prince, this sounds
00:11:00.668 --> 00:11:01.503
"but pastor prince, this sounds so"--now, i'm not saying that
00:11:01.569 --> 00:11:03.438
So"--now, i'm not saying that this is a norm.
00:11:03.505 --> 00:11:04.906
This is a norm. if you can, all right.
00:11:04.973 --> 00:11:06.775
If you can, all right. how can you build a relationship
00:11:06.841 --> 00:11:07.709
How can you build a relationship with someone always on the go?
00:11:07.776 --> 00:11:09.377
With someone always on the go? you need to find time to sit
00:11:09.444 --> 00:11:10.879
You need to find time to sit down somewhere, relax, and
00:11:10.945 --> 00:11:12.547
Down somewhere, relax, and chit chat.
00:11:12.614 --> 00:11:13.848
Chit chat. am i right?
00:11:13.915 --> 00:11:15.416
Am i right? all right, you cannot just be on
00:11:15.483 --> 00:11:16.584
All right, you cannot just be on the go and build a relationship.
00:11:16.651 --> 00:11:17.919
The go and build a relationship. yes, we are all aware of that,
00:11:17.986 --> 00:11:19.420
Yes, we are all aware of that, but sometimes this emphasize so
00:11:19.487 --> 00:11:21.422
But sometimes this emphasize so much that people think that,
00:11:21.489 --> 00:11:23.324
Much that people think that, "i have to have all the tools of
00:11:23.391 --> 00:11:24.559
"i have to have all the tools of the bible.
00:11:24.626 --> 00:11:25.260
The bible. i must know what kind of
00:11:25.326 --> 00:11:26.194
I must know what kind of commentaries to have to help.
00:11:26.261 --> 00:11:28.196
Commentaries to have to help. what kind of study books
00:11:28.263 --> 00:11:29.631
What kind of study books to have."
00:11:29.697 --> 00:11:30.365
To have." they don't even get started.
00:11:30.431 --> 00:11:32.433
They don't even get started. my advice, put a bible near your
00:11:32.500 --> 00:11:34.736
My advice, put a bible near your toilet bowl, amen.
00:11:34.803 --> 00:11:40.041
Toilet bowl, amen. where you sit and release and
00:11:40.108 --> 00:11:43.945
Where you sit and release and live the let-go life, put a
00:11:44.012 --> 00:11:47.282
Live the let-go life, put a bible there.
00:11:47.348 --> 00:11:49.450
Bible there. "how can you say that,
00:11:49.517 --> 00:11:50.285
"how can you say that, pastor prince?"
00:11:50.351 --> 00:11:51.152
Pastor prince?" if you are religious, okay, let
00:11:51.219 --> 00:11:52.487
If you are religious, okay, let me tell you this.
00:11:52.554 --> 00:11:53.221
Me tell you this. you will always be in bondage
00:11:53.288 --> 00:11:54.189
You will always be in bondage now that you are no
00:11:54.255 --> 00:11:55.190
Now that you are no earthly good.
00:11:55.256 --> 00:11:57.125
Earthly good. that's being legalistic.
00:11:57.192 --> 00:11:58.059
That's being legalistic. you think god doesn't know what
00:11:58.126 --> 00:11:58.893
You think god doesn't know what you have?
00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:01.496
You have? god created your body.
00:12:01.563 --> 00:12:03.064
God created your body. god wants to be life and health
00:12:03.131 --> 00:12:04.966
God wants to be life and health to all your flesh.
00:12:05.033 --> 00:12:07.101
To all your flesh. that's why he gave you the
00:12:07.168 --> 00:12:08.203
That's why he gave you the ability to purge.
00:12:08.269 --> 00:12:12.607
Ability to purge. healthy organisms purge.
00:12:12.674 --> 00:12:18.413
Healthy organisms purge. healthy churches also.
00:12:18.479 --> 00:12:25.653
Healthy churches also. so, put one near your
00:12:25.720 --> 00:12:26.855
So, put one near your toilet bowl.
00:12:26.921 --> 00:12:28.056
Toilet bowl. put one in your dining area.
00:12:28.122 --> 00:12:29.624
Put one in your dining area. put one--when you watch your
00:12:29.691 --> 00:12:31.593
Put one--when you watch your netflix put one nearby.
00:12:31.659 --> 00:12:34.963
Netflix put one nearby. put one when you're watching tv.
00:12:35.029 --> 00:12:36.564
Put one when you're watching tv. sometimes they have commercials
00:12:36.631 --> 00:12:37.966
Sometimes they have commercials and all that.
00:12:38.032 --> 00:12:38.600
And all that. some programs you're watching,
00:12:38.666 --> 00:12:39.400
Some programs you're watching, they have commercials.
00:12:39.467 --> 00:12:40.335
They have commercials. pick it up, read it, amen.
00:12:40.401 --> 00:12:43.571
Pick it up, read it, amen. god is talking to you.
00:12:43.638 --> 00:12:44.539
God is talking to you. he wants to talk to you more
00:12:44.606 --> 00:12:45.573
He wants to talk to you more than you want to receive, amen.
00:12:45.640 --> 00:12:47.876
Than you want to receive, amen. so just take that chance.
00:12:47.942 --> 00:12:50.712
So just take that chance. don't run to your text messages.
00:12:50.778 --> 00:12:52.747
Don't run to your text messages. don't run to your social media
00:12:52.814 --> 00:12:54.983
Don't run to your social media and all that.
00:12:55.049 --> 00:12:56.684
And all that. speak to god.
00:12:56.751 --> 00:12:57.485
Speak to god. let god speak to you.
00:12:57.552 --> 00:12:58.786
Let god speak to you. this book is about god speaking
00:12:58.853 --> 00:13:00.421
This book is about god speaking to you.
00:13:00.488 --> 00:13:01.322
To you. you can talk to god.
00:13:01.389 --> 00:13:02.257
You can talk to god. that's prayer as well.
00:13:02.323 --> 00:13:02.991
That's prayer as well. you need to talk to god, but you
00:13:03.057 --> 00:13:04.058
You need to talk to god, but you see, when you talk to god,
00:13:04.125 --> 00:13:04.959
See, when you talk to god, nothing happens usually.
00:13:05.026 --> 00:13:07.061
Nothing happens usually. god hears your prayer.
00:13:07.128 --> 00:13:07.996
God hears your prayer. that happens of course, but when
00:13:08.062 --> 00:13:09.197
That happens of course, but when you talk to god, nothing happens
00:13:09.264 --> 00:13:10.331
You talk to god, nothing happens in that sense, but when god
00:13:10.398 --> 00:13:11.566
In that sense, but when god speaks, whenever god speaks,
00:13:11.633 --> 00:13:14.402
Things happen.
00:13:14.469 --> 00:13:16.504
Things happen. so this book is about god
00:13:16.571 --> 00:13:17.572
So this book is about god speaking to you.
00:13:17.639 --> 00:13:18.640
Speaking to you. can i have a good amen?
00:13:18.706 --> 00:13:20.241
Can i have a good amen? are you all learning?
00:13:20.308 --> 00:13:21.509
Are you all learning? and then it drops down,
00:13:21.576 --> 00:13:22.810
And then it drops down, not only that, verse 9.
00:13:22.877 --> 00:13:24.779
God brings you to a land,
00:13:25.513 --> 00:13:26.614
God brings you to a land, "wherein you shall eat
00:13:26.681 --> 00:13:27.715
"wherein you shall eat bread without scarceness."
00:13:27.782 --> 00:13:31.319
Bread without scarceness." whoa, in this book, you will eat
00:13:31.386 --> 00:13:32.987
Whoa, in this book, you will eat bread without scarcity.
00:13:33.054 --> 00:13:36.157
Bread without scarcity. god brings them to a land where
00:13:36.224 --> 00:13:37.926
God brings them to a land where they will eat bread without
00:13:37.992 --> 00:13:39.394
They will eat bread without scarceness, and he says,
00:13:39.460 --> 00:13:40.428
Scarceness, and he says, in this land,
00:13:40.495 --> 00:13:41.629
In this land, "you shall not lack
00:13:41.696 --> 00:13:42.697
"you shall not lack anything in it."
00:13:42.764 --> 00:13:45.199
Anything in it." i said, "you shall not lack
00:13:45.266 --> 00:13:46.601
I said, "you shall not lack anything in it," amen.
00:13:46.668 --> 00:13:49.037
In this book, you shall not lack
00:13:49.103 --> 00:13:51.172
In this book, you shall not lack anything in it.
00:13:51.239 --> 00:13:54.008
Anything in it. "i don't understand, pastor.
00:13:54.075 --> 00:13:54.842
"i don't understand, pastor. just by spending time in the
00:13:54.909 --> 00:13:55.977
Just by spending time in the word, god supplies me?"
00:13:56.044 --> 00:13:58.246
Word, god supplies me?" that's what god says.
00:13:58.313 --> 00:13:59.747
That's what god says. you think you are living just
00:13:59.814 --> 00:14:01.282
You think you are living just by, you know, you say, bread and
00:14:01.349 --> 00:14:02.283
By, you know, you say, bread and butter, right?
00:14:02.350 --> 00:14:04.085
Butter, right? issues, our daily life, but it's
00:14:04.152 --> 00:14:06.821
Issues, our daily life, but it's more than that, friend.
00:14:06.888 --> 00:14:07.855
More than that, friend. listen, we don't live by bread
00:14:07.922 --> 00:14:08.823
Listen, we don't live by bread and butter.
00:14:08.890 --> 00:14:09.324
And butter. we live by the word of god.
00:14:09.390 --> 00:14:11.059
We live by the word of god. that means god's supplies, amen.
00:14:11.125 --> 00:14:13.394
And it says, "a land whose
00:14:15.496 --> 00:14:18.366
And it says, "a land whose stones are iron, and out of
00:14:18.433 --> 00:14:20.435
Stones are iron, and out of whose hills you may dig brass."
00:14:20.501 --> 00:14:23.271
Whose hills you may dig brass." the word here, brass,
00:14:23.338 --> 00:14:23.938
The word here, brass, should be copper.
00:14:24.005 --> 00:14:26.007
Copper is what they used in
00:14:26.074 --> 00:14:26.975
Copper is what they used in those days.
00:14:27.041 --> 00:14:27.875
Those days. now, iron is the strongest metal
00:14:27.942 --> 00:14:30.578
Now, iron is the strongest metal during that time.
00:14:30.645 --> 00:14:31.946
During that time. i know today it's not.
00:14:32.013 --> 00:14:33.147
I know today it's not. i think there's tungsten and
00:14:33.214 --> 00:14:34.582
I think there's tungsten and there's titanium, but at one
00:14:34.649 --> 00:14:37.185
There's titanium, but at one time, iron, during the bible
00:14:37.251 --> 00:14:38.386
Time, iron, during the bible times was the iron age, they
00:14:38.453 --> 00:14:39.921
Times was the iron age, they call it the iron age, was the
00:14:39.988 --> 00:14:41.556
Call it the iron age, was the strongest metal then.
00:14:41.622 --> 00:14:42.957
Strongest metal then. those who built their weapons
00:14:43.024 --> 00:14:44.425
Those who built their weapons out of iron usually wins
00:14:44.492 --> 00:14:45.893
Out of iron usually wins the war.
00:14:45.960 --> 00:14:46.427
The war. so israel had no iron
00:14:46.494 --> 00:14:48.196
So israel had no iron implements, no iron weapons.
00:14:48.262 --> 00:14:50.164
Implements, no iron weapons. the philistines had iron
00:14:50.231 --> 00:14:51.332
The philistines had iron weapons, and yet god gave
00:14:51.399 --> 00:14:53.201
Weapons, and yet god gave victory, so you can see the
00:14:53.267 --> 00:14:54.569
Victory, so you can see the glory goes to god.
00:14:54.635 --> 00:14:56.137
Glory goes to god. god gave victory to
00:14:56.204 --> 00:14:57.105
God gave victory to israel, okay.
00:14:57.171 --> 00:14:58.706
Israel, okay. so god is saying,
00:14:58.773 --> 00:15:00.341
So god is saying, "but this land, the iron
00:15:00.408 --> 00:15:02.410
"but this land, the iron that you want, is really there.
00:15:02.477 --> 00:15:04.612
That you want, is really there. friend, you got to dig deep."
00:15:04.679 --> 00:15:06.481
Friend, you got to dig deep." notice, you got to dig.
00:15:06.547 --> 00:15:08.116
Notice, you got to dig. so some things is--some of you
00:15:08.182 --> 00:15:10.585
So some things is--some of you feel like you want
00:15:10.651 --> 00:15:11.819
Feel like you want light reading.
00:15:11.886 --> 00:15:12.754
Light reading. how many feel that
00:15:12.820 --> 00:15:13.321
How many feel that way sometimes?
00:15:13.388 --> 00:15:13.988
Way sometimes? i feel like just light reading.
00:15:14.055 --> 00:15:15.356
I feel like just light reading. then you know what?
00:15:15.423 --> 00:15:16.024
Then you know what? there are historical narratives.

There are historical narratives. there are stories in the bible.

The drama is there. the intrigue is there.

The intrigue is there. who betrayed who, and it's
00:15:24.065 --> 00:15:25.833
Who betrayed who, and it's all there.

The story of ruth and boaz, a romantic story.

Romantic story. i never fail to read it without
00:15:32.507 --> 00:15:33.941
I never fail to read it without getting some encouragement.
00:15:34.008 --> 00:15:35.376
Getting some encouragement. even though i know the story,
00:15:35.443 --> 00:15:36.844
Even though i know the story, the more i read it, the more i

Many narratives there. stories that--like the stories
00:15:55.163 --> 00:15:56.831
Stories that--like the stories that we are living in today.
00:15:56.898 --> 00:15:58.266
That we are living in today. so there are times i just love
00:15:58.332 --> 00:15:59.500
So there are times i just love reading the stories.
00:15:59.567 --> 00:16:02.270
Reading the stories. will i get health out of
00:16:02.336 --> 00:16:03.204
Will i get health out of it, yes.
00:16:03.271 --> 00:16:03.771
It, yes. please don't think.
00:16:03.838 --> 00:16:05.073
Please don't think. it doesn't say that, "my son,
00:16:05.139 --> 00:16:06.074
It doesn't say that, "my son, attend to the healing
00:16:06.140 --> 00:16:07.175
Attend to the healing words only."
00:16:07.241 --> 00:16:09.077
Words only." it says, "attend to my words."
00:16:09.143 --> 00:16:11.179
It says, "attend to my words." just reading any part of the
00:16:11.245 --> 00:16:12.046
Just reading any part of the bible yields all the benefits
00:16:12.113 --> 00:16:16.250
Bible yields all the benefits that god promised.
00:16:16.317 --> 00:16:19.153
That god promised. are you listening people, amen?
00:16:19.220 --> 00:16:24.292
Are you listening people, amen? but there are times you want to
00:16:24.358 --> 00:16:25.560
But there are times you want to dig deep.
00:16:25.626 --> 00:16:26.360
Dig deep. "oh yeah, there's
00:16:26.427 --> 00:16:27.328
"oh yeah, there's something here.
00:16:27.395 --> 00:16:28.262
Something here. i know there's something here.
00:16:28.329 --> 00:16:29.864
I know there's something here. i want to dig deep into
00:16:29.931 --> 00:16:30.665
I want to dig deep into this portion."
00:16:30.731 --> 00:16:31.332
This portion." i want to give you an example
00:16:31.399 --> 00:16:32.733
I want to give you an example real quick.
00:16:32.800 --> 00:16:33.334
Real quick. okay, are you ready, amen?
00:16:33.401 --> 00:16:35.002
Okay, are you ready, amen? if you love god's word, you know
00:16:35.069 --> 00:16:36.404
If you love god's word, you know there's something more to
00:16:36.471 --> 00:16:37.271
There's something more to the surface.
00:16:37.338 --> 00:16:37.939
The surface. let me give you an example.
00:16:38.005 --> 00:16:39.173
Let me give you an example. so this man has a daughter
00:16:39.240 --> 00:16:40.341
So this man has a daughter called achsah.
00:16:40.408 --> 00:16:41.242
Called achsah. say, "achsah."
00:16:41.309 --> 00:16:42.410
Say, "achsah." her name means anklet,
00:16:42.477 --> 00:16:44.078
Her name means anklet, all right.
00:16:44.145 --> 00:16:44.979
All right. the anklet for adorning.
00:16:45.046 --> 00:16:46.114
The anklet for adorning. anything to do with the foot
00:16:46.180 --> 00:16:47.482
Anything to do with the foot always has a picture
00:16:47.548 --> 00:16:49.283
Always has a picture of inheritance.
00:16:49.350 --> 00:16:51.185
Of inheritance. god says, "every place the sole
00:16:51.252 --> 00:16:52.420
God says, "every place the sole of your foot shall tread upon
00:16:52.487 --> 00:16:53.621
Of your foot shall tread upon shall be yours."
00:16:53.688 --> 00:16:54.288
Shall be yours." god gave them the land,
00:16:54.355 --> 00:16:55.256
God gave them the land, but god says,
00:16:55.323 --> 00:16:56.290
But god says, "every place you step on
00:16:56.357 --> 00:16:56.991
"every place you step on will be yours," right?
00:16:57.058 --> 00:16:59.026
So anyway, this happened in
00:16:59.093 --> 00:17:02.997
So anyway, this happened in joshua 15.
00:17:03.064 --> 00:17:04.232
Joshua 15. "then he," caleb, "went up from
00:17:04.298 --> 00:17:06.067
"then he," caleb, "went up from there to the inhabitants of
00:17:06.134 --> 00:17:07.668
There to the inhabitants of debir (formerly the name of
00:17:07.735 --> 00:17:09.504
Debir (formerly the name of debir was kirjath sepher)."
00:17:09.570 --> 00:17:11.038
Debir was kirjath sepher)." now, i told you just now
00:17:11.105 --> 00:17:12.173
Now, i told you just now about oracle.
00:17:12.240 --> 00:17:13.241
About oracle. we all always want to speak as
00:17:13.307 --> 00:17:14.742
We all always want to speak as the oracles of god.
00:17:14.809 --> 00:17:16.644
The oracles of god. debir is actually oracle of god.
00:17:16.711 --> 00:17:19.313
Debir is actually oracle of god. the rhema of god.
00:17:19.380 --> 00:17:20.515
The rhema of god. the spoken word of god.
00:17:20.581 --> 00:17:22.150
The spoken word of god. the now word of god, amen.
00:17:22.216 --> 00:17:24.752
The now word of god, amen. and so, caleb went up there to
00:17:24.819 --> 00:17:27.922
And so, caleb went up there to this place, and this place,
00:17:27.989 --> 00:17:29.690
This place, and this place, notice where is it?
00:17:29.757 --> 00:17:30.825
Notice where is it? it's at kirjath sepher.
00:17:30.892 --> 00:17:32.426
It's at kirjath sepher. this place still exists in
00:17:32.493 --> 00:17:33.928
This place still exists in israel, by the way.
00:17:33.995 --> 00:17:34.996
Israel, by the way. it's in a place called
00:17:35.062 --> 00:17:35.963
It's in a place called kirjath sepher.
00:17:36.030 --> 00:17:36.898
Kirjath sepher. what is kirjath sepher?
00:17:36.964 --> 00:17:38.099
What is kirjath sepher? city of the book.
00:17:38.166 --> 00:17:40.868
City of the book. city of the book.
00:17:40.935 --> 00:17:41.502
City of the book. do you know that you have a city
00:17:41.569 --> 00:17:42.637
Do you know that you have a city to conquer people?
00:17:42.703 --> 00:17:44.105
To conquer people? it's the city of the book.
00:17:44.172 --> 00:17:46.707
It's the city of the book. god tells you this is a city of
00:17:46.774 --> 00:17:48.276
God tells you this is a city of the book that you have to
00:17:48.342 --> 00:17:49.577
The book that you have to conquer, and when you conquer
00:17:49.644 --> 00:17:52.413
Conquer, and when you conquer it, when you get up to speak,
00:17:52.480 --> 00:17:54.282
It, when you get up to speak, you'll be speaking like the
00:17:54.348 --> 00:17:55.283
You'll be speaking like the oracles of god.
00:17:55.349 --> 00:17:57.185
Oracles of god. that's when the refreshing
00:17:57.251 --> 00:17:58.052
That's when the refreshing happens, the watering happens,
00:17:58.119 --> 00:17:59.921
Happens, the watering happens, the washing--the bathing
00:17:59.987 --> 00:18:01.322
The washing--the bathing happens, the healing
00:18:01.389 --> 00:18:02.456
Happens, the healing happens, amen.
00:18:02.523 --> 00:18:04.559
Happens, amen. from the logos to the
00:18:04.625 --> 00:18:05.626
From the logos to the rhema, okay.
00:18:05.693 --> 00:18:08.596
Rhema, okay. so here, he says,
00:18:08.663 --> 00:18:10.731
So here, he says, "and caleb says,
00:18:10.798 --> 00:18:11.666
"and caleb says, 'he who attacks kirjath sepher
00:18:11.732 --> 00:18:13.301
'he who attacks kirjath sepher and takes it,'"
00:18:13.367 --> 00:18:14.202
And takes it,'" that means you conquer the city
00:18:14.268 --> 00:18:15.102
That means you conquer the city of the book.
00:18:15.169 --> 00:18:16.137
Of the book. it's like us today, conquer the
00:18:16.204 --> 00:18:16.971
It's like us today, conquer the bible, amen.
00:18:17.038 --> 00:18:18.139
Bible, amen. learn the word.
00:18:18.206 --> 00:18:20.141
Learn the word. he who takes the city of the
00:18:20.208 --> 00:18:21.509
He who takes the city of the book, takes it,
00:18:21.576 --> 00:18:22.677
Book, takes it, "'to him i'll give achsah
00:18:22.743 --> 00:18:24.111
"'to him i'll give achsah my daughter as wife.'"
00:18:24.178 --> 00:18:26.414
My daughter as wife.'" his daughter better be
00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:27.315
His daughter better be beautiful, all right.
00:18:27.381 --> 00:18:29.750
Beautiful, all right. obviously, she's a beauty, amen.
00:18:29.817 --> 00:18:31.319
Obviously, she's a beauty, amen. like the father, amen, she grew
00:18:31.385 --> 00:18:33.287
Like the father, amen, she grew out of a good stock, amen, and
00:18:33.354 --> 00:18:35.523
Out of a good stock, amen, and she is a woman of faith, as we
00:18:35.590 --> 00:18:36.924
She is a woman of faith, as we are about to see.
00:18:36.991 --> 00:18:38.025
Are about to see. and he says, "i'll give my
00:18:38.092 --> 00:18:39.227
And he says, "i'll give my daughter to wife," amen.
00:18:39.293 --> 00:18:41.262
Daughter to wife," amen. and, "othniel the son of kenaz,
00:18:41.329 --> 00:18:43.364
And, "othniel the son of kenaz, the brother of caleb, took it;
00:18:43.431 --> 00:18:44.865
The brother of caleb, took it; and he gave him achsah his
00:18:44.932 --> 00:18:46.167
And he gave him achsah his daughter as wife."
00:18:46.234 --> 00:18:47.001
Daughter as wife." so othniel means the lion of
00:18:47.068 --> 00:18:48.669
So othniel means the lion of god, all right.
00:18:48.736 --> 00:18:50.137
God, all right. the lion of god.
00:18:50.204 --> 00:18:51.439
The lion of god. now, does that remind you
00:18:51.505 --> 00:18:52.773
Now, does that remind you of something?
00:18:52.840 --> 00:18:53.574
Of something? in the book of revelation, it
00:18:53.641 --> 00:18:54.575
In the book of revelation, it tells you that jesus, in fact
00:18:54.642 --> 00:18:56.744
Tells you that jesus, in fact the voice is heard.
00:18:56.811 --> 00:18:58.045
The voice is heard. "behold," the angel says,
00:18:58.112 --> 00:18:59.914
"behold," the angel says, "the lion of the tribe of judah
00:18:59.981 --> 00:19:02.650
"the lion of the tribe of judah has prevailed to open the book
00:19:02.717 --> 00:19:04.986
Has prevailed to open the book and to loose the seals
00:19:05.052 --> 00:19:05.886
And to loose the seals thereof," amen.
00:19:05.953 --> 00:19:07.855
So here is a small picture of
00:19:08.022 --> 00:19:10.458
So here is a small picture of jesus opening the book, amen,
00:19:10.524 --> 00:19:13.995
Jesus opening the book, amen, but it's also a message to all
00:19:14.061 --> 00:19:15.263
But it's also a message to all of us because whenever you see
00:19:15.329 --> 00:19:16.931
Of us because whenever you see jesus in the word of god,
00:19:16.998 --> 00:19:19.900
Jesus in the word of god, especially in the old testament,
00:19:19.967 --> 00:19:20.968
Especially in the old testament, you'll find jesus in all the
00:19:21.035 --> 00:19:22.403
You'll find jesus in all the shadows and types.
00:19:22.470 --> 00:19:23.471
Shadows and types. whenever you find jesus, you
00:19:23.537 --> 00:19:24.472
Whenever you find jesus, you know what?
00:19:24.538 --> 00:19:25.006
Know what? you find yourself.
00:19:25.072 --> 00:19:26.607
You find yourself. why, because as he is, so
00:19:26.674 --> 00:19:28.476
Why, because as he is, so are you.
00:19:28.542 --> 00:19:29.477
Are you. god sees you, where?
00:19:29.543 --> 00:19:30.778
God sees you, where? in christ today.
00:19:30.845 --> 00:19:32.580
In christ today. not outside christ, amen.
00:19:32.647 --> 00:19:35.116
Not outside christ, amen. so whenever you see jesus, it's
00:19:35.182 --> 00:19:36.317
So whenever you see jesus, it's in your vested interest because
00:19:36.384 --> 00:19:38.152
In your vested interest because whatever you see him is, you
00:19:38.219 --> 00:19:40.621
Whatever you see him is, you are, and what he has, you have,
00:19:40.688 --> 00:19:44.625
Are, and what he has, you have, because the bible says we are
00:19:44.692 --> 00:19:45.793
Because the bible says we are joined as with christ.
00:19:45.860 --> 00:19:47.495
Joined as with christ. so you see jesus possessing
00:19:47.561 --> 00:19:48.429
So you see jesus possessing something, you see yourself
00:19:48.496 --> 00:19:49.897
Something, you see yourself possessing it, and the holy
00:19:49.964 --> 00:19:51.866
Possessing it, and the holy spirit will make it happen in
00:19:51.932 --> 00:19:53.100
Spirit will make it happen in your life, by--just by
00:19:53.167 --> 00:19:54.502
Your life, by--just by beholding, amen.
00:19:54.568 --> 00:19:57.471
So the lion of god, the son of
00:19:57.938 --> 00:20:00.241
So the lion of god, the son of kenaz, he took the city
00:20:00.308 --> 00:20:01.876
Kenaz, he took the city of the book
00:20:01.942 --> 00:20:03.344
Of the book and he got caleb's daughter.
00:20:03.411 --> 00:20:05.680
Can you see just from a short
00:20:06.047 --> 00:20:07.648
Can you see just from a short passage, just a few verses, we
00:20:07.715 --> 00:20:09.083
Passage, just a few verses, we are digging deep.
00:20:09.150 --> 00:20:10.384
Are digging deep. we're looking at the meaning
00:20:10.451 --> 00:20:11.385
We're looking at the meaning of names.
00:20:11.452 --> 00:20:12.286
Of names. we're looking at the meaning of
00:20:12.353 --> 00:20:13.120

00:20:13.187 --> 00:20:13.654
The city. that has a relevance for
00:20:13.721 --> 00:20:14.955
That has a relevance for us today.
00:20:15.022 --> 00:20:15.690
Us today. that speaks to us today.
00:20:15.756 --> 00:20:17.391
That speaks to us today. you can be a lion of god when
00:20:17.458 --> 00:20:18.626
You can be a lion of god when you conquer this book, amen, and
00:20:18.693 --> 00:20:21.295
You conquer this book, amen, and god will give you "achsah," the
00:20:21.362 --> 00:20:23.831
God will give you "achsah," the foot to inherit.
00:20:23.898 --> 00:20:25.232
Foot to inherit. that means--god says,
00:20:25.299 --> 00:20:27.001
That means--god says, "every place your foot shall
00:20:27.068 --> 00:20:28.536
"every place your foot shall tread upon shall be yours."
00:20:28.602 --> 00:20:29.603
Tread upon shall be yours." the power to inherit what you
00:20:29.670 --> 00:20:31.105
The power to inherit what you see in the book and the promises
00:20:31.172 --> 00:20:33.541

Conquer this book, and the conquering doesn't have to be
00:20:37.378 --> 00:20:38.446
Conquering doesn't have to be entire bible.
00:20:38.512 --> 00:20:39.814
Entire bible. every day at a time.
00:20:39.880 --> 00:20:40.715
Every day at a time. when you conquer that verse, you
00:20:40.781 --> 00:20:42.116
When you conquer that verse, you meditate on that verse.
00:20:42.183 --> 00:20:43.284
Meditate on that verse. god gives you the "achsah,"
00:20:43.351 --> 00:20:44.618
God gives you the "achsah," the possession.
00:20:44.685 --> 00:20:46.287
The possession. the possession of it.
00:20:46.354 --> 00:20:48.322
In closing, i just want to tell
00:20:48.389 --> 00:20:49.256
In closing, i just want to tell you--by the way, it says oil,
00:20:49.323 --> 00:20:50.224
You--by the way, it says oil, olive, and honey.
00:20:50.291 --> 00:20:51.292
Olive, and honey. honey is there, right, and i
00:20:51.359 --> 00:20:53.461
Honey is there, right, and i showed you honey already, right?
00:20:53.527 --> 00:20:54.462
Showed you honey already, right? sweeter than honey.
00:20:54.528 --> 00:20:55.363
Sweeter than honey. so remember that god's word is
00:20:55.429 --> 00:20:56.564
So remember that god's word is sweeter than honey.
00:20:56.630 --> 00:20:58.599
It should be sweet to you.
00:20:58.666 --> 00:20:59.433
It should be sweet to you. it's not always something that
00:20:59.500 --> 00:21:00.201
It's not always something that heavy stuff.
00:21:00.267 --> 00:21:00.768
Heavy stuff. even the heavy stuff you read
00:21:00.835 --> 00:21:01.902
Even the heavy stuff you read sometimes, it has honey in
00:21:01.969 --> 00:21:03.738
Sometimes, it has honey in it, amen.
00:21:03.804 --> 00:21:06.240
It, amen. out of the ether, out of the
00:21:06.307 --> 00:21:08.075
Out of the ether, out of the dead carcass of a lion, came
00:21:08.142 --> 00:21:09.777
Dead carcass of a lion, came forth sweetness, came
00:21:09.844 --> 00:21:12.146
Forth sweetness, came forth honey.
00:21:12.213 --> 00:21:12.980
Forth honey. god will bring all your rocky
00:21:13.047 --> 00:21:14.982
God will bring all your rocky places, your hard places, god
00:21:15.049 --> 00:21:16.183
Places, your hard places, god will bring honey out of

That desire. i know some of you, like, you

I know some of you, like, you know, we have people who are
00:21:26.627 --> 00:21:28.162
Know, we have people who are taking time to build
00:21:28.229 --> 00:21:29.196
Taking time to build their muscles.
00:21:29.263 --> 00:21:31.098
Their muscles. you know, i sound a bit like

You know, i sound a bit like sour grapes here, but there are
00:21:32.433 --> 00:21:35.002
People who take time to build
00:21:35.069 --> 00:21:36.337
People who take time to build their muscles and all that, but
00:21:36.404 --> 00:21:37.438
Their muscles and all that, but you look at them through a
00:21:37.505 --> 00:21:39.540
You look at them through a spiritual x-ray, could very well
00:21:39.607 --> 00:21:42.209
Spiritual x-ray, could very well be they're spiritual anemics.
00:21:42.276 --> 00:21:46.113
Be they're spiritual anemics. lying flat on a stretcher,
00:21:46.180 --> 00:21:48.282
So skinny.

So skinny. they sound like the angklung,
00:21:49.750 --> 00:21:50.951
They sound like the angklung, you know angklung?
00:21:51.018 --> 00:21:52.086

But spiritually, they are emaciated.
00:21:59.160 --> 00:22:00.961
