>> joyce: you can never get the new thing that christ has done for
00:00:03.090 --> 00:00:04.191
Get the new thing that christ has done for us to fit into old thinking.
00:00:04.257 --> 00:00:05.759
>> joyce: i'm joyce meyer.

>> joyce: i'm joyce meyer. i've seen god's power transform my own life,
00:00:10.197 --> 00:00:11.598
I've seen god's power transform my own life, and he will do it for you.
00:00:11.665 --> 00:00:13.733
>> joyce: how many of you are
00:00:16.937 --> 00:00:17.938
>> joyce: how many of you are really glad that you either know
00:00:18.004 --> 00:00:20.974
>> joyce: how many of you are really glad that you either know or are learning the word of god?
00:00:21.041 --> 00:00:23.143
Really glad that you either know or are learning the word of god? >> [audience applauding]
00:00:23.210 --> 00:00:28.048
Or are learning the word of god? >> [audience applauding] >> joyce: you know,
00:00:28.115 --> 00:00:28.615
>> [audience applauding] >> joyce: you know, i was thinking during worship,
00:00:28.682 --> 00:00:29.416
>> joyce: you know, i was thinking during worship, the word of god works
00:00:29.483 --> 00:00:31.985
I was thinking during worship, the word of god works and if it's not working for you,
00:00:32.052 --> 00:00:33.019
The word of god works and if it's not working for you, then it's because
00:00:33.086 --> 00:00:33.854
And if it's not working for you, then it's because you're not working it.
00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:36.690
Then it's because you're not working it. when we do what
00:00:36.756 --> 00:00:38.859
The bible tells us to do,
00:00:38.925 --> 00:00:40.660
The bible tells us to do, our lives will change.
00:00:40.727 --> 00:00:44.164
The bible tells us to do, our lives will change. they don't change all at once,
00:00:44.231 --> 00:00:45.866
Our lives will change. they don't change all at once, they change gradually
00:00:45.932 --> 00:00:46.733
They don't change all at once, they change gradually little by little.
00:00:46.800 --> 00:00:47.901
They change gradually little by little. but if you stick with god,
00:00:47.968 --> 00:00:50.737
Little by little. but if you stick with god, your life will be completely
00:00:50.804 --> 00:00:52.973
But if you stick with god, your life will be completely and totally transformed.
00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:54.641
I'm gonna talk to you this
00:00:55.609 --> 00:00:56.543
I'm gonna talk to you this morning about the difference
00:00:56.610 --> 00:00:59.846
I'm gonna talk to you this morning about the difference in law and grace and how even
00:00:59.913 --> 00:01:03.483
Morning about the difference in law and grace and how even as new covenant christians,
00:01:03.550 --> 00:01:05.952
In law and grace and how even as new covenant christians, many times we mixed
00:01:06.019 --> 00:01:10.257
As new covenant christians, many times we mixed a lot of the old covenant
00:01:10.323 --> 00:01:11.825
Many times we mixed a lot of the old covenant stuff in with it and how
00:01:11.892 --> 00:01:14.261
A lot of the old covenant stuff in with it and how it weakens it.
00:01:14.327 --> 00:01:16.296
Stuff in with it and how it weakens it. you know, the devil wants
00:01:16.363 --> 00:01:18.398
It weakens it. you know, the devil wants us to be legalistic.
00:01:18.465 --> 00:01:21.201
You know, the devil wants us to be legalistic. i think one of the biggest
00:01:21.268 --> 00:01:22.802
Us to be legalistic. i think one of the biggest challenges that we will
00:01:22.869 --> 00:01:23.870
I think one of the biggest challenges that we will ever have in our life
00:01:23.937 --> 00:01:25.138
Challenges that we will ever have in our life is to live a holy life
00:01:25.205 --> 00:01:26.640
Ever have in our life is to live a holy life without becoming legalistic.
00:01:26.706 --> 00:01:30.644
Is to live a holy life without becoming legalistic. we are called to holiness,
00:01:30.710 --> 00:01:32.646
Without becoming legalistic. we are called to holiness, but so many people that try
00:01:32.712 --> 00:01:34.981
We are called to holiness, but so many people that try to live a holy life then make
00:01:35.048 --> 00:01:37.217
But so many people that try to live a holy life then make so many rules and regulations
00:01:37.284 --> 00:01:39.219
To live a holy life then make so many rules and regulations for themselves that
00:01:39.286 --> 00:01:40.987
So many rules and regulations for themselves that they become legalistic.
00:01:41.054 --> 00:01:42.756
For themselves that they become legalistic. and one of the things that
00:01:42.822 --> 00:01:43.790
Happens the moment you
00:01:43.857 --> 00:01:44.558
Happens the moment you become a legalist is you start
00:01:44.624 --> 00:01:46.893
Happens the moment you become a legalist is you start judging other people that
00:01:46.960 --> 00:01:50.397
Become a legalist is you start judging other people that aren't doing what you're doing
00:01:50.463 --> 00:01:52.566
Judging other people that aren't doing what you're doing or as much as what you're doing
00:01:52.632 --> 00:01:54.301
Aren't doing what you're doing or as much as what you're doing or the way you're doing it.
00:01:54.367 --> 00:01:58.004
Or as much as what you're doing or the way you're doing it. i've been
00:01:58.071 --> 00:01:58.672
Or the way you're doing it. i've been a legalistic christian,
00:01:58.738 --> 00:02:00.173
I've been a legalistic christian, i would have made
00:02:00.240 --> 00:02:00.774
A legalistic christian, i would have made a wonderful pharisee.
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:02.008
I would have made a wonderful pharisee. >> [audience laughing]
00:02:02.075 --> 00:02:04.277
A wonderful pharisee. >> [audience laughing] >> joyce: and i would imagine
00:02:04.344 --> 00:02:05.445
>> [audience laughing] >> joyce: and i would imagine that i have some friends here,
00:02:05.512 --> 00:02:06.446
>> joyce: and i would imagine that i have some friends here, today, that could
00:02:06.513 --> 00:02:07.681
That i have some friends here, today, that could say the same thing.
00:02:07.747 --> 00:02:10.116
Today, that could say the same thing. jesus has done so much for us,
00:02:10.183 --> 00:02:12.152
Say the same thing. jesus has done so much for us, but we really cannot
00:02:12.219 --> 00:02:13.220
Jesus has done so much for us, but we really cannot enjoy it until we learn
00:02:13.286 --> 00:02:15.522
But we really cannot enjoy it until we learn to let go of the old
00:02:15.589 --> 00:02:17.924
Enjoy it until we learn to let go of the old and take hold of the new.
00:02:17.991 --> 00:02:20.527
To let go of the old and take hold of the new. i wanna start
00:02:20.594 --> 00:02:21.461
And take hold of the new. i wanna start in matthew chapter 9.
00:02:21.528 --> 00:02:23.730
A lot happens in one
00:02:24.431 --> 00:02:26.132
A lot happens in one chapter of the bible,
00:02:26.199 --> 00:02:27.100
A lot happens in one chapter of the bible, it's pretty amazing,
00:02:27.167 --> 00:02:27.968
Chapter of the bible, it's pretty amazing, but jesus starts out here
00:02:28.034 --> 00:02:30.337
It's pretty amazing, but jesus starts out here and he gets in a boat,
00:02:30.403 --> 00:02:32.639
But jesus starts out here and he gets in a boat, crossed over to the other side,
00:02:32.706 --> 00:02:34.774
And he gets in a boat, crossed over to the other side, to capernaum, and verse 2 says,
00:02:34.841 --> 00:02:39.613
Crossed over to the other side, to capernaum, and verse 2 says, "they brought to him
00:02:39.679 --> 00:02:40.247
To capernaum, and verse 2 says, "they brought to him a man that was paralyzed,
00:02:40.313 --> 00:02:41.615
"they brought to him a man that was paralyzed, prostrated by illness,
00:02:41.681 --> 00:02:43.083
A man that was paralyzed, prostrated by illness, and he said to him,
00:02:43.149 --> 00:02:44.384
Prostrated by illness, and he said to him, 'your sins are forgiven you.'"
00:02:44.451 --> 00:02:47.320
And he said to him, 'your sins are forgiven you.'" well, the scribes and pharisees
00:02:47.387 --> 00:02:50.957
Didn't like that because
00:02:51.024 --> 00:02:52.359
Didn't like that because religious people
00:02:52.425 --> 00:02:53.593
Didn't like that because religious people never like anything.
00:02:53.660 --> 00:02:54.628
Religious people never like anything. >> [audience laughing]
00:02:54.694 --> 00:02:56.630
Never like anything. >> [audience laughing] >> joyce: you've never
00:02:56.696 --> 00:02:57.230

>> joyce: you've never seen a sourpuss until you run into a religious--
00:02:57.931 --> 00:02:58.765
Seen a sourpuss until you run into a religious-- i mean, just a real--
00:02:58.832 --> 00:02:59.933
You run into a religious-- i mean, just a real-- i'm not talking about--
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:01.835
I mean, just a real-- i'm not talking about-- i'm not talking about a new
00:03:01.901 --> 00:03:04.571
I'm not talking about-- i'm not talking about a new covenant, happy, blessed,
00:03:04.638 --> 00:03:06.439
I'm not talking about a new covenant, happy, blessed, living by the grace
00:03:06.506 --> 00:03:07.240
Covenant, happy, blessed, living by the grace of god christian,
00:03:07.307 --> 00:03:07.874
Living by the grace of god christian, i'm talking about an old
00:03:07.941 --> 00:03:09.309
Of god christian, i'm talking about an old legalist who just
00:03:09.376 --> 00:03:10.844
I'm talking about an old legalist who just follows a bunch of rules
00:03:10.910 --> 00:03:11.578
Legalist who just follows a bunch of rules and regulations and is mad
00:03:11.645 --> 00:03:12.879
Follows a bunch of rules and regulations and is mad at everybody else who doesn't.
00:03:12.946 --> 00:03:15.849
And regulations and is mad at everybody else who doesn't. and so, even when you
00:03:15.915 --> 00:03:17.183
At everybody else who doesn't. and so, even when you do something good,
00:03:17.250 --> 00:03:18.952
And so, even when you do something good, they find something wrong
00:03:19.019 --> 00:03:19.686
Do something good, they find something wrong with what you're doing even
00:03:19.753 --> 00:03:21.154
They find something wrong with what you're doing even though they're doing nothing.
00:03:21.221 --> 00:03:22.656
With what you're doing even though they're doing nothing. >> [audience laughing]
00:03:22.722 --> 00:03:24.824
Though they're doing nothing. >> [audience laughing] >> joyce: i know i've had that
00:03:24.891 --> 00:03:26.159
>> [audience laughing] >> joyce: i know i've had that judgment, "well, who does
00:03:26.226 --> 00:03:27.661
>> joyce: i know i've had that judgment, "well, who does she think she is?"
00:03:27.727 --> 00:03:28.695
Judgment, "well, who does she think she is?" well, at least i'm helping
00:03:28.762 --> 00:03:29.863
She think she is?" well, at least i'm helping some people,
00:03:29.929 --> 00:03:30.630
Well, at least i'm helping some people, what are you doing?
00:03:30.697 --> 00:03:32.198
Some people, what are you doing? >> [audience laughing]
00:03:32.265 --> 00:03:32.932
What are you doing? >> [audience laughing] >> joyce: and so,
00:03:32.999 --> 00:03:34.801
>> [audience laughing] >> joyce: and so, there was so much that
00:03:34.868 --> 00:03:35.535
>> joyce: and so, there was so much that jesus did that was good,
00:03:35.602 --> 00:03:36.603
There was so much that jesus did that was good, but the pharisees
00:03:36.670 --> 00:03:37.437
Jesus did that was good, but the pharisees never liked it.
00:03:37.504 --> 00:03:39.306
But the pharisees never liked it. no matter what he did,
00:03:39.372 --> 00:03:41.207
Never liked it. no matter what he did, they didn't like it.
00:03:41.274 --> 00:03:42.142
So, they brought to him this
00:03:43.076 --> 00:03:43.910
So, they brought to him this man that was paralyzed
00:03:43.977 --> 00:03:44.944
So, they brought to him this man that was paralyzed and he didn't right away say,
00:03:45.011 --> 00:03:48.281
Man that was paralyzed and he didn't right away say, "be healed."
00:03:48.348 --> 00:03:48.815
And he didn't right away say, "be healed." he said, "your sins
00:03:48.882 --> 00:03:49.516
"be healed." he said, "your sins are forgiven you."
00:03:49.582 --> 00:03:51.584
He said, "your sins are forgiven you." and the scribes said,
00:03:51.651 --> 00:03:53.186
Are forgiven you." and the scribes said, "who does he think he is?"
00:03:53.253 --> 00:03:54.821
And the scribes said, "who does he think he is?" verse 4, "jesus knowing
00:03:54.888 --> 00:03:57.757
"who does he think he is?" verse 4, "jesus knowing their thoughts said,
00:03:57.824 --> 00:03:58.558
Verse 4, "jesus knowing their thoughts said, 'why do you think evil
00:03:58.625 --> 00:04:00.360
Their thoughts said, 'why do you think evil in your heart?'"
00:04:00.427 --> 00:04:01.261
'why do you think evil in your heart?'" it's kind of interesting
00:04:01.328 --> 00:04:02.062
In your heart?'" it's kind of interesting to remember
00:04:02.128 --> 00:04:02.896
It's kind of interesting to remember at this point that jesus
00:04:02.962 --> 00:04:03.930
To remember at this point that jesus knows our thoughts.
00:04:03.997 --> 00:04:06.666
At this point that jesus knows our thoughts. amen.
00:04:06.733 --> 00:04:07.467
Knows our thoughts. amen. >> audience: amen.
00:04:07.534 --> 00:04:09.169
Amen. >> audience: amen. >> joyce: psalm 139 says that
00:04:09.235 --> 00:04:11.237
>> audience: amen. >> joyce: psalm 139 says that he knows every thought
00:04:11.304 --> 00:04:12.372
>> joyce: psalm 139 says that he knows every thought we're gonna think and every
00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:13.506
He knows every thought we're gonna think and every word we're going to speak.
00:04:13.573 --> 00:04:16.609
We're gonna think and every word we're going to speak. but he said, "okay,
00:04:16.676 --> 00:04:18.378
Word we're going to speak. but he said, "okay, you don't like the fact
00:04:18.445 --> 00:04:19.846
That i forgave his sins,
00:04:19.913 --> 00:04:21.047
That i forgave his sins, so let me ask you,
00:04:21.114 --> 00:04:21.848
That i forgave his sins, so let me ask you, which is easier for me to say,
00:04:21.915 --> 00:04:22.916
So let me ask you, which is easier for me to say, 'rise up and walk' or to say,
00:04:22.982 --> 00:04:25.085
Which is easier for me to say, 'rise up and walk' or to say, 'your sins are forgiven you.'"
00:04:25.151 --> 00:04:26.453
'rise up and walk' or to say, 'your sins are forgiven you.'" so, just to prove to them
00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:29.856
'your sins are forgiven you.'" so, just to prove to them that he had the power
00:04:29.923 --> 00:04:30.957
So, just to prove to them that he had the power to forgive sins,
00:04:31.024 --> 00:04:32.726
That he had the power to forgive sins, he also healed the man.
00:04:32.792 --> 00:04:36.629
To forgive sins, he also healed the man. you know, somebody,
00:04:36.696 --> 00:04:37.664
He also healed the man. you know, somebody, we have a funny idea
00:04:37.731 --> 00:04:38.598
You know, somebody, we have a funny idea about miracles.
00:04:38.665 --> 00:04:40.467
We have a funny idea about miracles. like when we think of miracles,
00:04:40.533 --> 00:04:42.902
About miracles. like when we think of miracles, it seems like we always
00:04:42.969 --> 00:04:44.137
Like when we think of miracles, it seems like we always think of healing,
00:04:44.204 --> 00:04:45.705
It seems like we always think of healing, about a healing miracle.
00:04:45.772 --> 00:04:47.841
Think of healing, about a healing miracle. and somebody said to me,
00:04:47.907 --> 00:04:49.275
About a healing miracle. and somebody said to me, recently,
00:04:49.342 --> 00:04:51.177
And somebody said to me, recently, we gave people an opportunity
00:04:51.244 --> 00:04:52.879
Recently, we gave people an opportunity to ask some questions
00:04:52.946 --> 00:04:54.214
We gave people an opportunity to ask some questions in a group that i was at,
00:04:54.280 --> 00:04:55.281
To ask some questions in a group that i was at, and they said,
00:04:55.348 --> 00:04:56.483
In a group that i was at, and they said, "what was the last
00:04:56.549 --> 00:04:57.350
And they said, "what was the last miracle that you saw?"
00:04:57.417 --> 00:04:59.753
"what was the last miracle that you saw?" and i thought,
00:04:59.819 --> 00:05:01.287
Miracle that you saw?" and i thought, "the last miracle i saw was
00:05:01.354 --> 00:05:02.856
And i thought, "the last miracle i saw was the last time i looked
00:05:02.922 --> 00:05:04.124
"the last miracle i saw was the last time i looked at myself in the mirror."
00:05:04.190 --> 00:05:04.991
The last time i looked at myself in the mirror." >> [audience laughing]

At myself in the mirror." >> [audience laughing] >> joyce: because you see,

>> joyce: because you see, if you're a born-again believer, you are a miracle.
00:05:15.201 --> 00:05:18.204

>> joyce: and i don't think we should always look
00:05:25.211 --> 00:05:26.246
>> joyce: and i don't think we should always look at miracles as just
00:05:26.312 --> 00:05:27.380
We should always look at miracles as just somebody being healed or--
00:05:27.447 --> 00:05:29.983
At miracles as just somebody being healed or-- you know, they say that
00:05:30.049 --> 00:05:31.317
Somebody being healed or-- you know, they say that a miracle is something
00:05:31.384 --> 00:05:32.051
You know, they say that a miracle is something that nobody can explain.
00:05:32.118 --> 00:05:33.386
A miracle is something that nobody can explain. well, i cannot explain

That nobody can explain. well, i cannot explain to you why i've ended

Well, i cannot explain to you why i've ended up in my life where i'm at,

To you why i've ended up in my life where i'm at, because i certainly,
00:05:39.025 --> 00:05:40.427
Up in my life where i'm at, because i certainly, by all natural standards,
00:05:40.493 --> 00:05:43.329
Because i certainly, by all natural standards, shouldn't have been.
00:05:43.396 --> 00:05:46.666
By all natural standards, shouldn't have been. i mean, i didn't do that good
00:05:46.733 --> 00:05:49.202
Shouldn't have been. i mean, i didn't do that good in english when i was in school.
00:05:49.269 --> 00:05:51.237

The program is translated into those languages. but, you know,

Into those languages. but, you know, just to keep it short, i mean,

But, you know, just to keep it short, i mean, what god has done in my life,

Just to keep it short, i mean, what god has done in my life, the healing that i've had,
00:06:09.322 --> 00:06:10.657
What god has done in my life, the healing that i've had, what he's allowed me to do.

Yeah, every time i look at myself in the mirror, i have to say,
00:06:15.929 --> 00:06:18.731
At myself in the mirror, i have to say, "you're a miracle,"
00:06:18.798 --> 00:06:19.566
I have to say, "you're a miracle," because i know what
00:06:19.632 --> 00:06:20.600
"you're a miracle," because i know what a mess i was.
00:06:20.667 --> 00:06:24.037

But you know what? you don't even really have to worry too terribly much
00:07:15.021 --> 00:07:15.788
You don't even really have to worry too terribly much about the stuff that's wrong

You'll keep changing a little bit, a little bit. but even when
00:07:23.530 --> 00:07:24.364
A little bit, a little bit. but even when he comes back to get us,
00:07:24.430 --> 00:07:25.265
But even when he comes back to get us, there's still gonna
00:07:25.331 --> 00:07:25.999
He comes back to get us, there's still gonna be stuff wrong with us.
00:07:26.065 --> 00:07:26.933
But the bible says that
00:07:27.233 --> 00:07:28.401
But the bible says that he's not only coming
00:07:28.468 --> 00:07:29.335
But the bible says that he's not only coming back a second time.
00:07:29.402 --> 00:07:30.703
He's not only coming back a second time. isn't that good news?
00:07:30.770 --> 00:07:31.871
Back a second time. isn't that good news? >> [audience applauding]

Isn't that good news? >> [audience applauding] >> joyce: but we will be changed
00:07:33.273 --> 00:07:36.876
>> [audience applauding] >> joyce: but we will be changed in the twinkling of an eye.
00:07:36.943 --> 00:07:38.244
>> joyce: but we will be changed in the twinkling of an eye. it says he's not coming back
00:07:38.311 --> 00:07:40.313
In the twinkling of an eye. it says he's not coming back to bring salvation,
00:07:40.380 --> 00:07:41.681
But to bring us because
00:07:41.748 --> 00:07:43.216
But to bring us because he's already done that,
00:07:43.283 --> 00:07:44.317
But to bring us because he's already done that, but to bring us
00:07:44.384 --> 00:07:45.485
He's already done that, but to bring us to completed salvation.
00:07:45.552 --> 00:07:47.587
But to bring us to completed salvation. and what that means is that
00:07:47.654 --> 00:07:49.122
To completed salvation. and what that means is that everything that we still
00:07:49.188 --> 00:07:52.458
And what that means is that everything that we still do wrong or everything
00:07:52.525 --> 00:07:53.626
Everything that we still do wrong or everything that's still wrong with us,
00:07:53.693 --> 00:07:54.394
Do wrong or everything that's still wrong with us, in the twinkling of an eye,
00:07:54.460 --> 00:07:56.329
That's still wrong with us, in the twinkling of an eye, we will be changed.
00:07:56.396 --> 00:07:58.131
In the twinkling of an eye, we will be changed. and that's like one
00:07:58.197 --> 00:07:59.532
We will be changed. and that's like one bat of your eyes.
00:07:59.599 --> 00:08:01.868
And that's like one bat of your eyes. everything that is wrong with
00:08:01.935 --> 00:08:03.102
Bat of your eyes. everything that is wrong with you will be completely fixed.
00:08:03.169 --> 00:08:04.571
Everything that is wrong with you will be completely fixed. won't that be a wonderful day?
00:08:04.637 --> 00:08:06.339
You will be completely fixed. won't that be a wonderful day? amen.
00:08:06.406 --> 00:08:07.907
And so, jesus went ahead
00:08:08.441 --> 00:08:09.642
And so, jesus went ahead and healed the man
00:08:09.709 --> 00:08:10.243
And so, jesus went ahead and healed the man so they could be satisfied,
00:08:10.310 --> 00:08:14.147
And healed the man so they could be satisfied, but they still weren't
00:08:14.213 --> 00:08:14.781
So they could be satisfied, but they still weren't satisfied because people
00:08:14.847 --> 00:08:16.182
But they still weren't satisfied because people like that never are.
00:08:16.249 --> 00:08:19.552
Satisfied because people like that never are. and then, in verse 9,
00:08:19.619 --> 00:08:21.120
Like that never are. and then, in verse 9, he called matthew,
00:08:21.187 --> 00:08:22.355
And then, in verse 9, he called matthew, who was a tax collector,
00:08:22.422 --> 00:08:23.389
He called matthew, who was a tax collector, and they didn't like that
00:08:23.456 --> 00:08:24.390
Who was a tax collector, and they didn't like that because they didn't
00:08:24.457 --> 00:08:25.358
And they didn't like that because they didn't like tax collectors.
00:08:25.425 --> 00:08:25.992
Because they didn't like tax collectors. and then on top of that,
00:08:26.059 --> 00:08:27.093
Like tax collectors. and then on top of that, he went home with matthew
00:08:27.160 --> 00:08:28.061
And then on top of that, he went home with matthew for a dinner party where
00:08:28.127 --> 00:08:29.295
He went home with matthew for a dinner party where matthew called all kinds
00:08:29.362 --> 00:08:30.663
For a dinner party where matthew called all kinds of especially wicked sinners,
00:08:30.730 --> 00:08:33.166
Matthew called all kinds of especially wicked sinners, i would have been in that group,
00:08:33.232 --> 00:08:34.534
Of especially wicked sinners, i would have been in that group, and a bunch of other
00:08:34.601 --> 00:08:36.035
I would have been in that group, and a bunch of other tax collectors.
00:08:36.102 --> 00:08:36.970
And a bunch of other tax collectors. and now, the pharisees
00:08:37.036 --> 00:08:38.104
Tax collectors. and now, the pharisees really got upset.
00:08:38.171 --> 00:08:41.240
And now, the pharisees really got upset. they just seem like they
00:08:41.307 --> 00:08:41.975
Really got upset. they just seem like they lived upset all the time.
00:08:42.041 --> 00:08:46.446
They just seem like they lived upset all the time. when jesus heard
00:08:46.512 --> 00:08:47.580
Lived upset all the time. when jesus heard that they were upset,
00:08:47.647 --> 00:08:48.648
When jesus heard that they were upset, he said, "i didn't come
00:08:48.715 --> 00:08:52.352
That they were upset, he said, "i didn't come for those who have
00:08:52.418 --> 00:08:54.554
He said, "i didn't come for those who have no need of a physician,
00:08:54.621 --> 00:08:56.422
For those who have no need of a physician, but i came for those
00:08:56.489 --> 00:08:57.924
No need of a physician, but i came for those who are weak and sick."
00:08:57.991 --> 00:08:59.192
But i came for those who are weak and sick." so, he's basically saying
00:08:59.258 --> 00:09:00.827
Who are weak and sick." so, he's basically saying to them, "you know,
00:09:00.893 --> 00:09:01.894
So, he's basically saying to them, "you know, you think you've got
00:09:01.961 --> 00:09:02.528
To them, "you know, you think you've got it all together.
00:09:02.595 --> 00:09:03.229
You think you've got it all together. well, if that's the case,
00:09:03.296 --> 00:09:03.997
It all together. well, if that's the case, i didn't come for you anyway.
00:09:04.063 --> 00:09:04.931
Well, if that's the case, i didn't come for you anyway. i came from these people
00:09:04.998 --> 00:09:05.999
I didn't come for you anyway. i came from these people who need me."
00:09:06.065 --> 00:09:07.000
I came from these people who need me." and then verse 13 says,
00:09:07.066 --> 00:09:09.335
Who need me." and then verse 13 says, "go and learn what this means:
00:09:09.402 --> 00:09:10.637
And then verse 13 says, "go and learn what this means: 'i desire mercy
00:09:10.703 --> 00:09:13.506
"go and learn what this means: 'i desire mercy and not sacrifice.'"
00:09:13.573 --> 00:09:14.707
'i desire mercy and not sacrifice.'" well, god wants
00:09:14.774 --> 00:09:15.575
And not sacrifice.'" well, god wants to give us mercy.
00:09:15.642 --> 00:09:18.044
Well, god wants to give us mercy. he doesn't want us to try
00:09:18.111 --> 00:09:19.312
To give us mercy. he doesn't want us to try to give him sacrifices
00:09:19.379 --> 00:09:21.648
He doesn't want us to try to give him sacrifices when we sin,
00:09:21.714 --> 00:09:22.982
Because the only sacrifice
00:09:23.049 --> 00:09:24.851
Because the only sacrifice that will ever be needed
00:09:24.917 --> 00:09:26.819
Because the only sacrifice that will ever be needed has already been made.
00:09:26.886 --> 00:09:28.621
That will ever be needed has already been made. >> [audience applauding]
00:09:28.688 --> 00:09:29.856
Has already been made. >> [audience applauding] >> joyce: and so,
00:09:29.922 --> 00:09:30.823
>> [audience applauding] >> joyce: and so, god wants us to look
00:09:30.890 --> 00:09:32.692
>> joyce: and so, god wants us to look to the cross when
00:09:32.759 --> 00:09:34.260
God wants us to look to the cross when we do something wrong.
00:09:34.327 --> 00:09:35.895
To the cross when we do something wrong. and it's challenging
00:09:35.962 --> 00:09:38.931
We do something wrong. and it's challenging to get to the point where
00:09:38.998 --> 00:09:40.199
And it's challenging to get to the point where you can do something wrong
00:09:40.266 --> 00:09:42.568
To get to the point where you can do something wrong that you know is sin,
00:09:42.635 --> 00:09:46.205
You can do something wrong that you know is sin, admit it to god,
00:09:46.272 --> 00:09:48.708
That you know is sin, admit it to god, tell him you wanna
00:09:48.775 --> 00:09:49.308
Admit it to god, tell him you wanna turn away from it.
00:09:49.375 --> 00:09:50.410
Tell him you wanna turn away from it. you're ready to turn
00:09:50.476 --> 00:09:51.110
Turn away from it. you're ready to turn away from it,
00:09:51.177 --> 00:09:52.545
You're ready to turn away from it, receive his forgiveness,
00:09:52.612 --> 00:09:53.880
Away from it, receive his forgiveness, and then literally just
00:09:53.946 --> 00:09:55.648
Receive his forgiveness, and then literally just go on and not feel guilty.
00:09:55.715 --> 00:10:00.520
And then literally just go on and not feel guilty. how many of you, after you
00:10:00.586 --> 00:10:01.487
Go on and not feel guilty. how many of you, after you do something wrong,
00:10:01.554 --> 00:10:02.355
How many of you, after you do something wrong, even after you ask
00:10:02.422 --> 00:10:03.089
Do something wrong, even after you ask for forgiveness,
00:10:03.156 --> 00:10:04.524
Even after you ask for forgiveness, you'll have a tendency to still
00:10:04.590 --> 00:10:05.858
For forgiveness, you'll have a tendency to still feel guilty for a while?
00:10:05.925 --> 00:10:08.461
You'll have a tendency to still feel guilty for a while? i think sometimes we break
00:10:08.528 --> 00:10:09.662
Feel guilty for a while? i think sometimes we break our sins up in categories,
00:10:09.729 --> 00:10:11.064
I think sometimes we break our sins up in categories, small, medium, and large.
00:10:11.130 --> 00:10:12.432
Our sins up in categories, small, medium, and large. >> [audience laughing]
00:10:12.498 --> 00:10:14.634
Small, medium, and large. >> [audience laughing] >> joyce: you know, a small sin,
00:10:14.701 --> 00:10:15.768
>> [audience laughing] >> joyce: you know, a small sin, you might only have to feel
00:10:15.835 --> 00:10:16.869
>> joyce: you know, a small sin, you might only have to feel guilty for a few hours,
00:10:16.936 --> 00:10:18.037
You might only have to feel guilty for a few hours, and a medium one
00:10:18.104 --> 00:10:18.738
Guilty for a few hours, and a medium one takes a few days,
00:10:18.805 --> 00:10:19.806
And a medium one takes a few days, and then a biggie takes
00:10:19.872 --> 00:10:20.773
Takes a few days, and then a biggie takes a long, long time.
00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:21.841
And then a biggie takes a long, long time. >> [audience laughing]
00:10:21.908 --> 00:10:23.409
>> joyce: i carried that
00:10:24.077 --> 00:10:24.744
>> joyce: i carried that sack of guilt with
00:10:24.811 --> 00:10:25.344
>> joyce: i carried that sack of guilt with me for a long time.
00:10:25.411 --> 00:10:27.680
Sack of guilt with me for a long time. and i was learning about faith
00:10:27.747 --> 00:10:29.716
Me for a long time. and i was learning about faith back in the '70s in, "the word
00:10:29.782 --> 00:10:30.917
And i was learning about faith back in the '70s in, "the word and faith movement."
00:10:30.983 --> 00:10:32.085
Back in the '70s in, "the word and faith movement." man, i was using my faith
00:10:32.151 --> 00:10:33.319
And faith movement." man, i was using my faith for everything.
00:10:33.386 --> 00:10:34.353
I was believing in god
00:10:34.420 --> 00:10:35.121
I was believing in god for all kinds of stuff,
00:10:35.188 --> 00:10:36.055
I was believing in god for all kinds of stuff, i didn't need at all.
00:10:36.122 --> 00:10:38.391
For all kinds of stuff, i didn't need at all. what i needed was
00:10:38.458 --> 00:10:39.125
I didn't need at all. what i needed was to mature and grow up,
00:10:39.192 --> 00:10:39.859
What i needed was to mature and grow up, but i never prayed about that.
00:10:39.926 --> 00:10:41.494
To mature and grow up, but i never prayed about that. do you know that paul--
00:10:41.561 --> 00:10:42.695
But i never prayed about that. do you know that paul-- in all the prayers
00:10:42.762 --> 00:10:43.730
Do you know that paul-- in all the prayers that paul prayed,
00:10:43.796 --> 00:10:44.530
In all the prayers that paul prayed, he never prayed for one
00:10:44.597 --> 00:10:46.165
That paul prayed, he never prayed for one thing for the believers?
00:10:46.232 --> 00:10:49.368
He never prayed for one thing for the believers? he never even prayed for their
00:10:49.435 --> 00:10:50.436
Thing for the believers? he never even prayed for their problems to go away.
00:10:50.503 --> 00:10:53.473
He never even prayed for their problems to go away. he only prayed things that would
00:10:53.539 --> 00:10:55.208
Problems to go away. he only prayed things that would help them grow spiritually.
00:10:55.274 --> 00:10:57.677
Instead of praying for their
00:10:58.377 --> 00:10:59.245
Instead of praying for their problems to go away,
00:10:59.312 --> 00:11:00.146
Instead of praying for their problems to go away, he prayed that they would have
00:11:00.213 --> 00:11:01.380
Problems to go away, he prayed that they would have the power to endure whatever
00:11:01.447 --> 00:11:02.882
He prayed that they would have the power to endure whatever came and keep a good temper
00:11:02.949 --> 00:11:06.119
The power to endure whatever came and keep a good temper while they were at it.
00:11:06.185 --> 00:11:09.622
Came and keep a good temper while they were at it. i think we pray wrong a lot.
00:11:09.689 --> 00:11:10.890
While they were at it. i think we pray wrong a lot. we don't need our
00:11:10.957 --> 00:11:11.691
I think we pray wrong a lot. we don't need our problems to go away.
00:11:11.758 --> 00:11:12.625
We don't need our problems to go away. we need to be stronger.
00:11:12.692 --> 00:11:15.695
Did you hear me?
00:11:15.762 --> 00:11:16.295
Did you hear me? we need to be stronger
00:11:16.362 --> 00:11:17.396
Did you hear me? we need to be stronger in spirit because the strong
00:11:17.463 --> 00:11:18.865
We need to be stronger in spirit because the strong spirit of a man sustains him
00:11:18.931 --> 00:11:20.833
In spirit because the strong spirit of a man sustains him in bodily pain and trouble.
00:11:20.900 --> 00:11:25.938
Spirit of a man sustains him in bodily pain and trouble. earlier this year,
00:11:26.005 --> 00:11:27.473
In bodily pain and trouble. earlier this year, i had an accident.
00:11:27.540 --> 00:11:29.909
Earlier this year, i had an accident. well, actually, i went for
00:11:29.976 --> 00:11:30.943
I had an accident. well, actually, i went for a very minor back surgery.
00:11:31.010 --> 00:11:33.746
Well, actually, i went for a very minor back surgery. i had some stenosis in my spine,
00:11:33.813 --> 00:11:37.316
A very minor back surgery. i had some stenosis in my spine, a little one-inch incision,
00:11:37.383 --> 00:11:39.485
I had some stenosis in my spine, a little one-inch incision, less than an hour surgery,
00:11:39.552 --> 00:11:41.888
A little one-inch incision, less than an hour surgery, be fine in a week or two.
00:11:41.954 --> 00:11:44.157
Less than an hour surgery, be fine in a week or two. but something happened
00:11:44.223 --> 00:11:45.625
Be fine in a week or two. but something happened and i got a blood clot
00:11:45.691 --> 00:11:46.526
But something happened and i got a blood clot at the surgery site and had
00:11:46.592 --> 00:11:48.027
And i got a blood clot at the surgery site and had to go back for a second
00:11:48.094 --> 00:11:49.328
At the surgery site and had to go back for a second surgery and that caused
00:11:49.395 --> 00:11:50.463
To go back for a second surgery and that caused nerve damage to this leg.
00:11:50.530 --> 00:11:52.965
Surgery and that caused nerve damage to this leg. so, i was in rehab for two weeks
00:11:53.032 --> 00:11:54.267
Nerve damage to this leg. so, i was in rehab for two weeks at the rehab hospital
00:11:54.333 --> 00:11:55.902
So, i was in rehab for two weeks at the rehab hospital and they finally got to where
00:11:55.968 --> 00:11:57.837
At the rehab hospital and they finally got to where i could go home on a walker
00:11:57.904 --> 00:11:59.172
And they finally got to where i could go home on a walker and i got home and fell
00:11:59.238 --> 00:12:00.473
I could go home on a walker and i got home and fell and broke the other leg.
00:12:00.540 --> 00:12:01.440
And i got home and fell and broke the other leg. >> [audience groaning]

>> joyce: so, i ended up being in a wheelchair for two and a half months
00:12:04.544 --> 00:12:05.378
Up being in a wheelchair for two and a half months and i won't go into what
00:12:05.444 --> 00:12:06.279
For two and a half months and i won't go into what all that took.
00:12:06.345 --> 00:12:06.979
And i won't go into what all that took. but in the very beginning,
00:12:07.046 --> 00:12:10.249
All that took. but in the very beginning, the very first thing
00:12:10.316 --> 00:12:11.484
But in the very beginning, the very first thing that i said to god is,
00:12:11.551 --> 00:12:12.618
The very first thing that i said to god is, "god, i wanna do this right.
00:12:12.685 --> 00:12:16.622
That i said to god is, "god, i wanna do this right. i wanna act like i tell

"god, i wanna do this right. i wanna act like i tell other people they should

I wanna act like i tell other people they should act when they have problems."

Other people they should act when they have problems." >> [audience laughing]

00:12:24.697 --> 00:12:26.232
Easy it is to give advice? >> [audience laughing] >> joyce: and sometimes
00:12:26.299 --> 00:12:26.999
>> [audience laughing] >> joyce: and sometimes when you're having a problem,

>> joyce: and sometimes when you're having a problem, if you wanna know
00:12:28.067 --> 00:12:28.668
When you're having a problem, if you wanna know what you should do,
00:12:28.734 --> 00:12:29.235
If you wanna know what you should do, just do what you would
00:12:29.302 --> 00:12:29.969
What you should do, just do what you would tell somebody else
00:12:30.036 --> 00:12:30.603
Just do what you would tell somebody else to do if they came to you
00:12:30.670 --> 00:12:32.471
And had the same problem.
00:12:32.538 --> 00:12:33.539
And had the same problem. >> [audience applauding]

>> joyce: and--so, god really helped me during that time, and i actually stayed nice
00:12:40.947 --> 00:12:43.249
Helped me during that time, and i actually stayed nice and sweet and didn't complain
00:12:43.316 --> 00:12:45.117
And i actually stayed nice and sweet and didn't complain or grumble and had to be careful
00:12:45.184 --> 00:12:48.688
And sweet and didn't complain or grumble and had to be careful not to be proud of myself
00:12:48.754 --> 00:12:49.889
Or grumble and had to be careful not to be proud of myself because then i would have
00:12:49.956 --> 00:12:50.823
Not to be proud of myself because then i would have been in trouble that way.
00:12:50.890 --> 00:12:51.958
Because then i would have been in trouble that way. but--
00:12:52.024 --> 00:12:52.959
Been in trouble that way. but-- >> [audience laughing]
00:12:53.025 --> 00:12:54.227
>> joyce: well, we start trying
00:12:55.828 --> 00:12:57.129
>> joyce: well, we start trying to figure everything out,
00:12:57.196 --> 00:12:57.964
>> joyce: well, we start trying to figure everything out, don't we?
00:12:58.030 --> 00:12:59.866
To figure everything out, don't we? "why did this happen to me?
00:12:59.932 --> 00:13:01.567
Don't we? "why did this happen to me? why, why, why, why, when, when?"
00:13:01.634 --> 00:13:04.871
"why did this happen to me? why, why, why, why, when, when?" and god just wants
00:13:04.937 --> 00:13:05.638
Why, why, why, why, when, when?" and god just wants us to trust him.
00:13:05.705 --> 00:13:07.406
And god just wants us to trust him. and so, during that period
00:13:07.473 --> 00:13:08.374
Us to trust him. and so, during that period of time i just said, you know--
00:13:08.441 --> 00:13:10.376
And so, during that period of time i just said, you know-- i didn't know why that happened.
00:13:10.443 --> 00:13:12.245
Of time i just said, you know-- i didn't know why that happened. it didn't make any sense because
00:13:12.311 --> 00:13:13.546
I didn't know why that happened. it didn't make any sense because i had to cancel conferences.
00:13:13.613 --> 00:13:14.847
It didn't make any sense because i had to cancel conferences. it just--you know, i couldn't
00:13:14.914 --> 00:13:17.416
I had to cancel conferences. it just--you know, i couldn't find anything good in it,
00:13:17.483 --> 00:13:19.585
It just--you know, i couldn't find anything good in it, but god knows things
00:13:19.652 --> 00:13:22.889
Find anything good in it, but god knows things that we don't know.
00:13:22.955 --> 00:13:24.991
But god knows things that we don't know. and if it was just
00:13:25.057 --> 00:13:25.758
That we don't know. and if it was just nothing but a test,
00:13:25.825 --> 00:13:27.393
And if it was just nothing but a test, it's still good for me because
00:13:27.460 --> 00:13:30.096
Nothing but a test, it's still good for me because we have to practice
00:13:30.162 --> 00:13:30.930
It's still good for me because we have to practice on something to stay strong.
00:13:30.997 --> 00:13:33.933
We have to practice on something to stay strong. when you have a mess
00:13:34.000 --> 00:13:34.667
On something to stay strong. when you have a mess in your life,
00:13:34.734 --> 00:13:35.568
When you have a mess in your life, you can still be blessed
00:13:35.635 --> 00:13:37.236
In your life, you can still be blessed in the middle of that mess if,
00:13:37.303 --> 00:13:38.537
You can still be blessed in the middle of that mess if, if, if, if, if you handle
00:13:38.604 --> 00:13:41.407
In the middle of that mess if, if, if, if, if you handle it god's way.
00:13:41.474 --> 00:13:43.809
If, if, if, if you handle it god's way. see, sometimes,
00:13:43.876 --> 00:13:45.111
It god's way. see, sometimes, we're so christian
00:13:45.177 --> 00:13:46.178
See, sometimes, we're so christian till we have a problem...
00:13:46.245 --> 00:13:47.280
We're so christian till we have a problem... >> [audience laughing]

>> joyce: and then we become a different sort of person. and that's not the way
00:13:52.018 --> 00:13:53.219
A different sort of person. and that's not the way god wants us to be.
00:13:53.286 --> 00:13:53.953
And that's not the way god wants us to be. he wants us to be stable
00:13:54.020 --> 00:13:55.288
God wants us to be. he wants us to be stable all the way through things.
00:13:55.354 --> 00:13:58.457
He wants us to be stable all the way through things. amen?
00:13:58.524 --> 00:13:59.091
All the way through things. amen? >> audience: amen.

00:14:01.661 --> 00:14:03.195
Getting back to matthew chapter 9, jesus went to just eat with
00:14:03.262 --> 00:14:07.600
To matthew chapter 9, jesus went to just eat with all these tax collectors.
00:14:07.667 --> 00:14:08.834
Jesus went to just eat with all these tax collectors. and of course,
00:14:08.901 --> 00:14:09.268
All these tax collectors. and of course, they didn't like this--
00:14:09.335 --> 00:14:10.169
And of course, they didn't like this-- that either.
00:14:10.236 --> 00:14:10.636
They didn't like this-- that either. and so, then he said,
00:14:10.703 --> 00:14:11.370
That either. and so, then he said, "go and learn what this means:
00:14:11.437 --> 00:14:12.605
And so, then he said, "go and learn what this means: 'i desire mercy,
00:14:12.672 --> 00:14:14.573
"go and learn what this means: 'i desire mercy, not sacrifice.'"
00:14:14.640 --> 00:14:17.343
'i desire mercy, not sacrifice.'" well, i had a really hard time
00:14:17.410 --> 00:14:19.946
Not sacrifice.'" well, i had a really hard time understanding that scripture.
00:14:20.012 --> 00:14:22.982
Well, i had a really hard time understanding that scripture. and i just thought,
00:14:23.049 --> 00:14:26.052
Understanding that scripture. and i just thought, "you desire mercy,
00:14:26.118 --> 00:14:27.386
Not sacrifice."
00:14:27.453 --> 00:14:28.621
Not sacrifice." well, what he's wanting
00:14:28.688 --> 00:14:30.756
Not sacrifice." well, what he's wanting us to do is to receive
00:14:30.823 --> 00:14:31.757
Well, what he's wanting us to do is to receive his mercy when we make
00:14:31.824 --> 00:14:33.159
Us to do is to receive his mercy when we make mistakes and not try to give
00:14:33.225 --> 00:14:34.660
His mercy when we make mistakes and not try to give him sacrifices because
00:14:34.727 --> 00:14:36.329
Mistakes and not try to give him sacrifices because the only sacrifice ever
00:14:36.395 --> 00:14:38.197
Him sacrifices because the only sacrifice ever needed has already been made.
00:14:38.264 --> 00:14:42.368
The only sacrifice ever needed has already been made. and so, back in the '70s,
00:14:42.435 --> 00:14:45.504
Needed has already been made. and so, back in the '70s, when i was learning all about
00:14:45.571 --> 00:14:46.806
And so, back in the '70s, when i was learning all about faith and using my faith
00:14:46.872 --> 00:14:48.007
When i was learning all about faith and using my faith for everything i didn't need,
00:14:48.074 --> 00:14:49.175
Faith and using my faith for everything i didn't need, god said, "if you wanna use
00:14:49.241 --> 00:14:50.309
For everything i didn't need, god said, "if you wanna use your faith for something
00:14:50.376 --> 00:14:51.844
God said, "if you wanna use your faith for something really big, use your faith
00:14:51.911 --> 00:14:54.146
Your faith for something really big, use your faith to stay completely
00:14:54.213 --> 00:14:55.147
Really big, use your faith to stay completely free from guilt."
00:14:55.214 --> 00:14:58.651
"well, aren't i supposed
00:14:59.452 --> 00:15:00.386
"well, aren't i supposed to feel guilty when
00:15:00.453 --> 00:15:01.354
"well, aren't i supposed to feel guilty when i do somethin' wrong?"
00:15:01.420 --> 00:15:02.888
To feel guilty when i do somethin' wrong?" well, the bible does
00:15:02.955 --> 00:15:03.923
I do somethin' wrong?" well, the bible does say in james that you should
00:15:03.990 --> 00:15:04.790
Well, the bible does say in james that you should "weep and mourn over your sin,"
00:15:04.857 --> 00:15:06.125
Say in james that you should "weep and mourn over your sin," but it doesn't say you have
00:15:06.192 --> 00:15:07.893
"weep and mourn over your sin," but it doesn't say you have to keep doing it for a long
00:15:07.960 --> 00:15:10.596
But it doesn't say you have to keep doing it for a long time after you receive
00:15:10.663 --> 00:15:12.064
To keep doing it for a long time after you receive god's forgiveness.
00:15:12.131 --> 00:15:13.332
Time after you receive god's forgiveness. you see,
00:15:13.399 --> 00:15:14.367
God's forgiveness. you see, when he forgives the sin,
00:15:14.433 --> 00:15:16.168
You see, when he forgives the sin, he removes it from--as far
00:15:16.235 --> 00:15:17.870
When he forgives the sin, he removes it from--as far as the east is from the west,
00:15:17.937 --> 00:15:19.638
He removes it from--as far as the east is from the west, remembers it no more.
00:15:19.705 --> 00:15:23.309
As the east is from the west, remembers it no more. so, if you go back
00:15:23.376 --> 00:15:24.310
Remembers it no more. so, if you go back talking to god about
00:15:24.377 --> 00:15:25.444
So, if you go back talking to god about something you've already
00:15:25.511 --> 00:15:26.112
Asked forgiveness for,
00:15:26.178 --> 00:15:26.979
Asked forgiveness for, he doesn't even know
00:15:27.046 --> 00:15:27.780
Asked forgiveness for, he doesn't even know what you're talking about.
00:15:27.847 --> 00:15:28.714
He doesn't even know what you're talking about. >> [audience laughing]
00:15:28.781 --> 00:15:32.785
What you're talking about. >> [audience laughing] >> joyce: come on,

00:15:34.020 --> 00:15:36.255
This will help you, but you're all just like-- and i know because it's like
00:15:36.322 --> 00:15:37.356
But you're all just like-- and i know because it's like we have a real problem with this
00:15:37.423 --> 00:15:39.892
And i know because it's like we have a real problem with this and it's wasting god's time.
00:15:39.959 --> 00:15:42.962
We have a real problem with this and it's wasting god's time. the lord told me one time
00:15:43.029 --> 00:15:44.330
And it's wasting god's time. the lord told me one time when i was carrying my little
00:15:44.397 --> 00:15:45.598
The lord told me one time when i was carrying my little sack of guilt around,
00:15:45.664 --> 00:15:46.632
When i was carrying my little sack of guilt around, i'd done something wrong
00:15:46.699 --> 00:15:47.600
Sack of guilt around, i'd done something wrong and i don't know,
00:15:47.666 --> 00:15:48.567
I'd done something wrong and i don't know, i was feeling guilty.
00:15:48.634 --> 00:15:49.168
And i don't know, i was feeling guilty. and he said, "if you don't mind,
00:15:49.235 --> 00:15:51.971
I was feeling guilty. and he said, "if you don't mind, would you just accept
00:15:52.038 --> 00:15:53.572
And he said, "if you don't mind, would you just accept my forgiveness and go on
00:15:53.639 --> 00:15:55.174
Would you just accept my forgiveness and go on because i have a lot for you
00:15:55.241 --> 00:15:56.642
My forgiveness and go on because i have a lot for you to do and you're no good
00:15:56.709 --> 00:15:58.044
Because i have a lot for you to do and you're no good to me in this condition."
00:15:58.110 --> 00:16:00.813
To do and you're no good to me in this condition." and see, we're not--
00:16:00.880 --> 00:16:03.149
To me in this condition." and see, we're not-- god can't use us for anything
00:16:03.215 --> 00:16:04.450
And see, we're not-- god can't use us for anything if we're gonna not even
00:16:04.517 --> 00:16:05.851
God can't use us for anything if we're gonna not even like ourselves.
00:16:05.918 --> 00:16:08.721
If we're gonna not even like ourselves. so, he wants us to receive
00:16:08.788 --> 00:16:11.490
Like ourselves. so, he wants us to receive his mercy instead of trying
00:16:11.557 --> 00:16:13.426
So, he wants us to receive his mercy instead of trying to give him a sacrifice,
00:16:13.492 --> 00:16:15.795
His mercy instead of trying to give him a sacrifice, receive his mercy
00:16:15.861 --> 00:16:16.862
To give him a sacrifice, receive his mercy and thank him for the sacrifice
00:16:16.929 --> 00:16:18.097
Receive his mercy and thank him for the sacrifice that's already been made.
00:16:18.164 --> 00:16:20.132
And it says many

Out that back door, deal with whatever needed to be dealt with.
00:19:01.193 --> 00:19:03.796
Deal with whatever needed to be dealt with. now, our son also was
00:19:03.862 --> 00:19:05.798
Needed to be dealt with. now, our son also was a little bit undisciplined.
00:19:05.864 --> 00:19:07.533
Now, our son also was a little bit undisciplined. well, he was a lot
00:19:07.600 --> 00:19:08.334
A little bit undisciplined. well, he was a lot undisciplined.
00:19:08.400 --> 00:19:09.401
Well, he was a lot undisciplined. and so...
00:19:09.468 --> 00:19:10.069
Undisciplined. and so... >> [audience laughing]
00:19:10.135 --> 00:19:10.936
And so... >> [audience laughing] >> joyce: we had this list
00:19:11.003 --> 00:19:12.204
>> [audience laughing] >> joyce: we had this list of rules, if you will,
00:19:12.271 --> 00:19:14.006
>> joyce: we had this list of rules, if you will, things that he was supposed
00:19:14.073 --> 00:19:17.343
Of rules, if you will, things that he was supposed to do every day: make your bed,
00:19:17.409 --> 00:19:19.078
Things that he was supposed to do every day: make your bed, take the trash out,
00:19:19.144 --> 00:19:19.812
To do every day: make your bed, take the trash out, feed the dog, you know,
00:19:19.878 --> 00:19:20.746
Take the trash out, feed the dog, you know, whatever it was.
00:19:20.813 --> 00:19:22.214
Feed the dog, you know, whatever it was. and what the lord showed
00:19:22.281 --> 00:19:23.649
Whatever it was. and what the lord showed me was when he--
00:19:23.716 --> 00:19:26.485
And what the lord showed me was when he-- i mean, we were teaching
00:19:26.552 --> 00:19:27.586
Me was when he-- i mean, we were teaching him and training him.
00:19:27.653 --> 00:19:31.023
I mean, we were teaching him and training him. so, the things that
00:19:31.090 --> 00:19:31.790
Him and training him. so, the things that he was doing wrong,
00:19:31.857 --> 00:19:33.025
So, the things that he was doing wrong, he would learn to do right.
00:19:33.092 --> 00:19:34.793
He was doing wrong, he would learn to do right. but when he had a need,
00:19:34.860 --> 00:19:37.563
He would learn to do right. but when he had a need, we didn't go check his list
00:19:37.630 --> 00:19:39.131
But when he had a need, we didn't go check his list first to see if he'd done
00:19:39.198 --> 00:19:40.866
We didn't go check his list first to see if he'd done everything before
00:19:40.933 --> 00:19:42.034
First to see if he'd done everything before we went to help him.
00:19:42.101 --> 00:19:45.671
Everything before we went to help him. you didn't get it.
00:19:45.738 --> 00:19:46.338
We went to help him. you didn't get it. i guess, i have to say it again.
00:19:46.405 --> 00:19:47.506
You didn't get it. i guess, i have to say it again. >> [audience laughing]
00:19:47.573 --> 00:19:50.409
I guess, i have to say it again. >> [audience laughing] >> joyce: see,
00:19:50.476 --> 00:19:50.909
>> [audience laughing] >> joyce: see, if you're god's child,

>> joyce: see, if you're god's child, when you have a need,
00:19:52.077 --> 00:19:54.313
If you're god's child, when you have a need, no matter how many things are
00:19:54.380 --> 00:19:55.581
When you have a need, no matter how many things are not checked off on your list.
00:19:55.648 --> 00:19:58.517
No matter how many things are not checked off on your list. >> audience member: amen.
00:19:58.584 --> 00:20:01.253
Not checked off on your list. >> audience member: amen. >> joyce: i'll talk to you.
00:20:01.320 --> 00:20:02.221

00:20:03.022 --> 00:20:05.157
You sound like you're get-- >> [audience laughing] >> joyce: [laughing]
00:20:05.224 --> 00:20:07.559
>> [audience laughing] >> joyce: [laughing] "oh, i didn't read my bible
00:20:07.626 --> 00:20:08.961
>> joyce: [laughing] "oh, i didn't read my bible for three days.
00:20:09.028 --> 00:20:12.631
"oh, i didn't read my bible for three days. i only--
00:20:12.698 --> 00:20:13.265
For three days. i only-- i didn't even pray
00:20:13.332 --> 00:20:14.433
I only-- i didn't even pray yesterday at all.
00:20:14.500 --> 00:20:15.401
I didn't even pray yesterday at all. i just totally forgot about it.
00:20:15.467 --> 00:20:17.236
Yesterday at all. i just totally forgot about it. i didn't even think
00:20:17.303 --> 00:20:17.870
I just totally forgot about it. i didn't even think about god once."
00:20:17.936 --> 00:20:19.772
I didn't even think about god once." and then all of a sudden
00:20:19.838 --> 00:20:20.639
About god once." and then all of a sudden you have a need,
00:20:20.706 --> 00:20:21.573
And then all of a sudden you have a need, and the devil will try to make
00:20:21.640 --> 00:20:22.608
You have a need, and the devil will try to make you think that you don't
00:20:22.675 --> 00:20:23.842
And the devil will try to make you think that you don't deserve for god to help you.
00:20:23.909 --> 00:20:26.278
You think that you don't deserve for god to help you. so, you don't even
00:20:26.345 --> 00:20:27.112
Deserve for god to help you. so, you don't even bother asking,
00:20:27.179 --> 00:20:28.113
So, you don't even bother asking, but you just need to cry,
00:20:28.180 --> 00:20:29.014
Bother asking, but you just need to cry, "daaaaddy!"
00:20:29.081 --> 00:20:32.885
But you just need to cry, "daaaaddy!" and when you do,
00:20:32.951 --> 00:20:33.752
"daaaaddy!" and when you do, he'll come runnin'.
00:20:33.819 --> 00:20:35.788
And when you do, he'll come runnin'. and then whatever
00:20:35.854 --> 00:20:37.156
He'll come runnin'. and then whatever he needs to deal with,
00:20:37.222 --> 00:20:37.923
And then whatever he needs to deal with, he'll deal with later on.
00:20:37.990 --> 00:20:41.727
He needs to deal with, he'll deal with later on. amen?
00:20:41.794 --> 00:20:42.861
He'll deal with later on. amen? >> audience: amen.

00:20:50.102 --> 00:20:51.270
>> joyce: you're kinda looking like-- >> [audience laughing]
00:20:51.337 --> 00:20:52.738
Looking like-- >> [audience laughing] >> joyce: am i in the right
00:20:52.805 --> 00:20:53.739
>> [audience laughing] >> joyce: am i in the right place with the right word?
00:20:53.806 --> 00:20:55.140
>> joyce: am i in the right place with the right word? >> [audience laughing]
00:20:55.207 --> 00:20:55.808
Place with the right word? >> [audience laughing] >> audience member: we love you,
00:20:55.874 --> 00:20:56.675
>> [audience laughing] >> audience member: we love you, joyce!
00:20:56.742 --> 00:20:58.143
>> audience member: we love you, joyce! >> joyce: all right.
00:20:58.210 --> 00:20:58.877
Joyce! >> joyce: all right. then he takes off
00:20:58.944 --> 00:21:00.446
>> joyce: all right. then he takes off into something that
00:21:00.512 --> 00:21:01.080
Then he takes off into something that seems a little strange.
00:21:01.146 --> 00:21:03.949
He says--verse 16,
00:21:04.450 --> 00:21:06.685
He says--verse 16, "and nobody puts a piece
00:21:06.752 --> 00:21:08.087
He says--verse 16, "and nobody puts a piece of cloth that has not been
00:21:08.153 --> 00:21:09.321
"and nobody puts a piece of cloth that has not been shrunk on an old garment,
00:21:09.388 --> 00:21:11.523
Of cloth that has not been shrunk on an old garment, for such a patch tears away
00:21:11.590 --> 00:21:13.225
Shrunk on an old garment, for such a patch tears away from the garment
00:21:13.292 --> 00:21:13.792
For such a patch tears away from the garment and a worse rent is made."
00:21:13.859 --> 00:21:15.627
From the garment and a worse rent is made." so, if you don't quite
00:21:15.694 --> 00:21:16.462
And a worse rent is made." so, if you don't quite understand that
00:21:16.528 --> 00:21:16.962
So, if you don't quite understand that it's like, back in these days,
00:21:17.029 --> 00:21:18.831
Understand that it's like, back in these days, people patched stuff.
00:21:18.897 --> 00:21:19.765
We don't do that now,
00:21:19.832 --> 00:21:20.866
We don't do that now, we throw it away
00:21:20.933 --> 00:21:21.433
We don't do that now, we throw it away and get a new one.
00:21:21.500 --> 00:21:22.501
We throw it away and get a new one. but they patched things
00:21:22.568 --> 00:21:23.769
And get a new one. but they patched things when they ripped.
00:21:23.836 --> 00:21:25.437
But they patched things when they ripped. and so, he said,
00:21:25.504 --> 00:21:26.205
When they ripped. and so, he said, "don't take a piece of new cloth
00:21:26.271 --> 00:21:27.773
And so, he said, "don't take a piece of new cloth and put it on an old garment
00:21:27.840 --> 00:21:29.641
"don't take a piece of new cloth and put it on an old garment because that garment's
00:21:29.708 --> 00:21:31.143
And put it on an old garment because that garment's already been washed,
00:21:31.210 --> 00:21:32.144
Because that garment's already been washed, and it's shrunk.
00:21:32.211 --> 00:21:33.078
But if you put
00:21:33.579 --> 00:21:35.581
But if you put a new patch on it,
00:21:35.647 --> 00:21:36.849
But if you put a new patch on it, when you wash it,
00:21:36.915 --> 00:21:37.883
A new patch on it, when you wash it, it's gonna shrink
00:21:37.950 --> 00:21:38.851
When you wash it, it's gonna shrink and pull away from the rip
00:21:38.917 --> 00:21:39.752
It's gonna shrink and pull away from the rip and it's gonna make it worse."
00:21:39.818 --> 00:21:41.987
And pull away from the rip and it's gonna make it worse." and then he says,
00:21:42.054 --> 00:21:42.688
And it's gonna make it worse." and then he says, "neither is new wine
00:21:42.755 --> 00:21:44.356
And then he says, "neither is new wine put into old wineskins;
00:21:44.423 --> 00:21:46.592
"neither is new wine put into old wineskins; for if it is,
00:21:46.658 --> 00:21:47.393
Put into old wineskins; for if it is, the skin will burst
00:21:47.459 --> 00:21:51.196
For if it is, the skin will burst and it'll be torn in pieces,
00:21:51.263 --> 00:21:52.965
The skin will burst and it'll be torn in pieces, and the wine will be spilled."
00:21:53.031 --> 00:21:56.769
And it'll be torn in pieces, and the wine will be spilled." now, this is so important
00:21:56.835 --> 00:22:00.038
Because that wine represents--
00:22:00.105 --> 00:22:02.174
Because that wine represents-- it's symbolic
00:22:02.241 --> 00:22:02.708
Because that wine represents-- it's symbolic of the holy spirit.
00:22:02.775 --> 00:22:04.610
It's symbolic of the holy spirit. it's symbolic of the power
00:22:04.676 --> 00:22:05.778
Of the holy spirit. it's symbolic of the power of the holy spirit.
00:22:05.844 --> 00:22:08.547
It's symbolic of the power of the holy spirit. it's symbolic of the power
00:22:08.614 --> 00:22:09.415
Of the holy spirit. it's symbolic of the power that god wants his
00:22:09.481 --> 00:22:11.583
It's symbolic of the power that god wants his children to walk in.
00:22:11.650 --> 00:22:14.019
That god wants his children to walk in. it's symbolic of grace
00:22:14.086 --> 00:22:15.254
Children to walk in. it's symbolic of grace and it's symbolic of god's love.
00:22:15.320 --> 00:22:19.458
It's symbolic of grace and it's symbolic of god's love. so, he said,
00:22:19.525 --> 00:22:20.659
And it's symbolic of god's love. so, he said, "we don't want the new wine
00:22:20.726 --> 00:22:21.827
So, he said, "we don't want the new wine to be spilled out.
00:22:21.894 --> 00:22:24.396
"we don't want the new wine to be spilled out. so, you can't put
00:22:24.463 --> 00:22:26.632
To be spilled out. so, you can't put it in old wineskins."
00:22:26.698 --> 00:22:27.733
So, you can't put it in old wineskins." what's he saying?
00:22:27.800 --> 00:22:29.334
It in old wineskins." what's he saying? you can't put--
00:22:29.401 --> 00:22:30.169
What's he saying? you can't put-- you can never get the new
00:22:30.235 --> 00:22:31.770
You can't put-- you can never get the new thing that christ has done
00:22:31.837 --> 00:22:33.405
You can never get the new thing that christ has done for us to fit into old thinking.
00:22:33.472 --> 00:22:36.909
That's why the bible says that
00:22:38.043 --> 00:22:39.578
That's why the bible says that in order to receive what
00:22:39.645 --> 00:22:42.514
That's why the bible says that in order to receive what jesus has done for us,
00:22:42.581 --> 00:22:43.782
In order to receive what jesus has done for us, we must have our minds
00:22:43.849 --> 00:22:46.452
Jesus has done for us, we must have our minds renewed in romans 12:2.
00:22:46.518 --> 00:22:48.887
We must have our minds renewed in romans 12:2. so, i kind of feel like that
00:22:48.954 --> 00:22:50.889
Renewed in romans 12:2. so, i kind of feel like that that's what's happening
00:22:50.956 --> 00:22:52.191
To a lot of you this morning.
00:22:52.257 --> 00:22:53.225
To a lot of you this morning. i've been teaching a long time
00:22:53.292 --> 00:22:54.393
To a lot of you this morning. i've been teaching a long time and, you know, a lot of times
00:22:54.460 --> 00:22:55.794
I've been teaching a long time and, you know, a lot of times when people are quiet,
00:22:55.861 --> 00:22:57.229
And, you know, a lot of times when people are quiet, they're actually
00:22:57.296 --> 00:22:57.629
When people are quiet, they're actually learning something,
00:22:57.696 --> 00:22:58.330
They're actually learning something, which is good.
00:22:58.397 --> 00:22:58.964
Learning something, which is good. >> [audience laughing]
00:22:59.031 --> 00:23:01.300
Which is good. >> [audience laughing] >> joyce: you know, preachers,

>> joyce: you know, preachers, like a noisy crowd, 'cause that makes them
00:23:03.068 --> 00:23:03.635
Like a noisy crowd, 'cause that makes them think that, you know,
00:23:03.702 --> 00:23:05.070
'cause that makes them think that, you know, everybody likes 'em.
00:23:05.137 --> 00:23:06.371
Think that, you know, everybody likes 'em. but dave's told me over
00:23:06.438 --> 00:23:07.172
Everybody likes 'em. but dave's told me over and over when they're
00:23:07.239 --> 00:23:08.173
But dave's told me over and over when they're clapping and agreeing,
00:23:08.240 --> 00:23:09.041
And over when they're clapping and agreeing, they already know
00:23:09.107 --> 00:23:10.008
Clapping and agreeing, they already know what you're saying.
00:23:10.075 --> 00:23:10.742
They already know what you're saying. when they're quiet,
00:23:10.809 --> 00:23:11.944
What you're saying. when they're quiet, they're learnin' somethin'.
00:23:12.010 --> 00:23:14.980
When they're quiet, they're learnin' somethin'. and so--

They're learnin' somethin'. and so-- >> [audience applauding]

And so-- >> [audience applauding] >> joyce: i mean,

>> [audience applauding] >> joyce: i mean, this is a huge thing because
00:23:20.652 --> 00:23:21.820
>> joyce: i mean, this is a huge thing because so many new covenant
00:23:21.887 --> 00:23:23.422
This is a huge thing because so many new covenant believers are not even
00:23:23.489 --> 00:23:25.858
So many new covenant believers are not even remotely beginning to tap
00:23:25.924 --> 00:23:29.394
