Jentezen Franklin - Defeating the King of Pride (Part 1)

May 15, 2025 | 27:28

Jentezen Franklin delves into the biblical concept of Leviathan, a symbolic representation of pride and spiritual warfare. Using Job 41 as a reference point, he highlights the insidious nature of pride, its manifestations in prayerlessness, harsh words, and covenant-breaking behavior. Franklin emphasizes the importance of humility, supplication, and soft speech in countering the destructive influence of pride in our lives. He calls for introspection, repentance, and reliance on God's power to overcome the grip of Leviathan and restore our relationship with Him.

  • Maybe they can throw that scripture up.
  • 00:06:47.721 --> 00:06:48.522

  • And notice, that's why god
  • 00:07:43.944 --> 00:07:44.912
  • That's why god starts the conversation,
  • 00:07:44.978 --> 00:07:46.613
  • Starts the conversation, and he says,
  • 00:07:46.680 --> 00:07:47.180

  • Out of the water?" and the answer is no.
  • 00:07:51.618 --> 00:07:53.353
  • And the answer is no. the bible says pride

  • This will wipe you out. this is a big deal.

  • This is a big deal. when he calls it a king,
  • 00:08:29.590 --> 00:08:30.958
  • When he calls it a king, he's saying this is
  • 00:08:31.024 --> 00:08:31.825
  • He's saying this is a ruling spirit that
  • 00:08:31.892 --> 00:08:34.194
  • A ruling spirit that every church, every person
  • 00:08:34.261 --> 00:08:36.930

  • Who's involved in the water, the moving of the holy spirit.
  • 00:08:39.232 --> 00:08:41.234
  • The moving of the holy spirit. because you're anointed
  • 00:08:41.301 --> 00:08:43.503
  • Because you're anointed and the spirit is moving,
  • 00:08:43.570 --> 00:08:44.938
  • And the spirit is moving, that does not
  • 00:08:45.005 --> 00:08:45.772
  • That does not mean that this spirit --
  • 00:08:45.839 --> 00:08:47.774
  • Mean that this spirit -- he's attracted,
  • 00:08:47.841 --> 00:08:48.709
  • He's attracted, he likes to play there.
  • 00:08:48.775 --> 00:08:50.377
  • So, god is saying that
  • 00:08:54.381 --> 00:08:55.882
  • So, god is saying that it'll be difficult
  • 00:08:55.949 --> 00:08:57.050
  • It'll be difficult to fight this spirit
  • 00:08:57.117 --> 00:08:59.753
  • To fight this spirit because most people

  • And i got a -- i can do this."
  • 00:10:39.219 --> 00:10:40.787
  • I can do this." will he ask supplications?
  • 00:10:40.854 --> 00:10:44.591
  • Will he ask supplications? the word supplication means
  • 00:10:44.658 --> 00:10:46.059
  • The word supplication means to ask for help.
  • 00:10:46.126 --> 00:10:47.427
  • To ask for help. and the answer is pride
  • 00:10:47.494 --> 00:10:49.429
  • And the answer is pride will never pray.
  • 00:10:49.496 --> 00:10:52.532
  • Will never pray. when you really are free
  • 00:10:52.599 --> 00:10:54.201
  • When you really are free from that spirit of pride,
  • 00:10:54.267 --> 00:10:56.336
  • From that spirit of pride, it makes you understand,
  • 00:10:56.403 --> 00:10:59.039
  • It makes you understand, "i," jesus said,
  • 00:10:59.106 --> 00:11:00.907
  • "i," jesus said, "am the vine and you

  • And without me, you can do nothing.
  • 00:11:04.711 --> 00:11:08.181
  • You can do nothing. and one of the sure signs
  • 00:11:08.248 --> 00:11:10.851
  • And one of the sure signs that leviathan has a grip
  • 00:11:10.917 --> 00:11:13.053
  • That leviathan has a grip in your life is when
  • 00:11:13.120 --> 00:11:14.721
  • In your life is when you no longer feel
  • 00:11:14.788 --> 00:11:16.323

  • The need to pray. and it's alright,
  • 00:11:19.092 --> 00:11:20.293
  • And it's alright, because god sent me

  • In his mouth. i can't do it,
  • 00:11:27.467 --> 00:11:28.068
  • I can't do it, but god can.
  • 00:11:28.135 --> 00:11:29.002
  • But god can. [applause]
  • 00:11:29.069 --> 00:11:30.203
  • [applause] it's important to pray.
  • 00:11:30.270 --> 00:11:35.942
  • It's important to pray. and he will resist,
  • 00:11:36.009 --> 00:11:38.011
  • And he will resist, he will resist prayer.
  • 00:11:38.078 --> 00:11:40.947
  • He will resist prayer. proud people don't pray,
  • 00:11:41.014 --> 00:11:44.651
  • Proud people don't pray, they sense that they don't
  • 00:11:44.718 --> 00:11:48.889
  • They sense that they don't have to ask for help.
  • 00:11:48.955 --> 00:11:51.291
  • Have to ask for help. some of you are addicted
  • 00:11:51.358 --> 00:11:52.926
  • Some of you are addicted and pride won't let you
  • 00:11:52.993 --> 00:11:54.027
  • And pride won't let you ask for help.
  • 00:11:54.094 --> 00:11:55.896
  • Ask for help. some of you are here today
  • 00:11:55.962 --> 00:11:57.964
  • Some of you are here today and you're suicidal,
  • 00:11:58.031 --> 00:11:59.466
  • And you're suicidal, and depressed,

  • And pride won't let you ask for help,
  • 00:12:03.804 --> 00:12:05.338
  • Let you ask for help, but supplication
  • 00:12:05.405 --> 00:12:06.740
  • But supplication is to ask for help.
  • 00:12:06.807 --> 00:12:08.842
  • Is to ask for help. it's why the scripture
  • 00:12:08.909 --> 00:12:09.609
  • It's why the scripture said in ephesians 6,
  • 00:12:09.676 --> 00:12:11.077
  • Said in ephesians 6, "praying with all prayers
  • 00:12:11.144 --> 00:12:13.146
  • "praying with all prayers and supplication
  • 00:12:13.213 --> 00:12:14.447
  • And supplication in the spirit.
  • 00:12:14.514 --> 00:12:15.282
  • In the spirit. philippians 4:6,
  • 00:12:15.348 --> 00:12:17.417
  • Philippians 4:6, "but in everything,
  • 00:12:17.484 --> 00:12:18.552
  • "but in everything, by prayer and supplication,"
  • 00:12:18.618 --> 00:12:20.921
  • By prayer and supplication," asking for help,
  • 00:12:20.987 --> 00:12:21.988
  • Asking for help, "with thanksgiving,
  • 00:12:22.055 --> 00:12:23.356
  • "with thanksgiving, let your request
  • 00:12:23.423 --> 00:12:24.691
  • Let your request be known unto god."
  • 00:12:24.758 --> 00:12:26.693
  • Be known unto god." but this leviathan spirit
  • 00:12:26.760 --> 00:12:28.829
  • But this leviathan spirit hinders our prayers,
  • 00:12:28.895 --> 00:12:31.097
  • Hinders our prayers, it restricts us
  • 00:12:31.164 --> 00:12:33.266
  • It restricts us and causes us to stop --
  • 00:12:33.333 --> 00:12:36.503
  • And causes us to stop -- to depend on the flesh
  • 00:12:36.570 --> 00:12:38.071
  • To depend on the flesh instead of depending
  • 00:12:38.138 --> 00:12:39.239
  • Instead of depending on prayer and asking
  • 00:12:39.306 --> 00:12:41.174
  • On prayer and asking god for his help.
  • 00:12:41.241 --> 00:12:44.277
  • God for his help. that is a sign that pride has
  • 00:12:44.344 --> 00:12:49.115
  • That is a sign that pride has gotten its grip on your life.
  • 00:12:49.182 --> 00:12:52.986
  • Gotten its grip on your life. "i don't need to make

  • "i don't need to make supplication to god."
  • 00:12:54.087 --> 00:12:56.690
  • Supplication to god." but the bible said this,
  • 00:12:56.756 --> 00:12:59.125
  • But the bible said this, when you say that,
  • 00:12:59.192 --> 00:13:00.460
  • When you say that, hebrews 5:7,
  • 00:13:00.527 --> 00:13:01.995
  • Hebrews 5:7, "jesus made supplication
  • 00:13:02.062 --> 00:13:04.431

  • Prayers and supplication. the son of god, god almighty,
  • 00:13:09.903 --> 00:13:13.240
  • The son of god, god almighty, and he's praying
  • 00:13:13.306 --> 00:13:15.041
  • And he's praying with supplication asking
  • 00:13:15.108 --> 00:13:17.677
  • With supplication asking for god's help
  • 00:13:17.744 --> 00:13:19.779
  • For god's help with strong crying and tears.
  • 00:13:19.846 --> 00:13:22.716
  • With strong crying and tears. where has the prayer gone?
  • 00:13:22.782 --> 00:13:24.484
  • Where has the prayer gone? why is the desperation
  • 00:13:24.551 --> 00:13:26.453
  • Why is the desperation gone from the church?
  • 00:13:26.519 --> 00:13:30.257
  • Gone from the church? but pride says,
  • 00:13:30.323 --> 00:13:32.025
  • But pride says, "i don't make supplication,

  • I can handle my own problems." second question,
  • 00:13:38.164 --> 00:13:40.200
  • Second question, he said, number one,
  • 00:13:40.267 --> 00:13:41.768
  • He said, number one, "will he offer supplication?"
  • 00:13:41.835 --> 00:13:43.136
  • "will he offer supplication?" the answer is no.
  • 00:13:43.203 --> 00:13:44.104
  • The answer is no. notice the second
  • 00:13:44.170 --> 00:13:45.338
  • Notice the second way pride manifests.
  • 00:13:45.405 --> 00:13:46.907
  • Way pride manifests. leviathan's lurking,

  • But the scripture said -- he asked,
  • 00:13:53.113 --> 00:13:54.114
  • He asked, "will he speak soft words?"
  • 00:13:54.180 --> 00:13:57.517
