  • Turn in your bible to ephesians chapter 1.
  • 00:00:37.596 --> 00:00:40.199
  • "blessed be the god and father of our lord jesus christ,
  • 00:00:40.199 --> 00:00:44.503
  • "who has blessed us,"
  • 00:00:45.003 --> 00:00:47.306
  • Here we go here i go, i can feel it,
  • 00:00:47.306 --> 00:00:49.775
  • It's about to happen to me,
  • 00:00:49.775 --> 00:00:51.743
  • "blessed us with every"
  • 00:00:51.743 --> 00:00:54.646

  • - [congregation] : all!
  • 00:00:56.248 --> 00:00:57.783
  • - "who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing
  • 00:00:57.783 --> 00:01:00.052
  • "in the heavenly places"
  • 00:01:00.052 --> 00:01:01.753
  • What does christ mean?
  • 00:01:01.753 --> 00:01:02.821
  • I talked about it eight weeks.
  • 00:01:02.821 --> 00:01:04.323
  • Christ means anointing or anointed.
  • 00:01:04.323 --> 00:01:06.825
  • "who has blessed us with ev"
  • 00:01:06.825 --> 00:01:08.127
  • Let me rephrase that.
  • 00:01:08.127 --> 00:01:09.595
  • Blessed be to the god and father
  • 00:01:10.229 --> 00:01:12.164
  • Of our lord jesus
  • 00:01:12.164 --> 00:01:14.600
  • Who has done everything for me spiritually
  • 00:01:14.600 --> 00:01:17.436
  • That can be done in the anointing.
  • 00:01:17.436 --> 00:01:19.838
  • The anointing is descriptive
  • 00:01:19.838 --> 00:01:21.540
  • Of the holy spirit living in me.
  • 00:01:21.540 --> 00:01:23.375
  • Let me say it again.
  • 00:01:23.375 --> 00:01:24.810
  • I thank god that through jesus christ
  • 00:01:24.810 --> 00:01:28.080
  • He emptied out heaven by letting the holy spirit
  • 00:01:28.080 --> 00:01:30.816
  • Live inside of me.
  • 00:01:30.816 --> 00:01:31.850
  • (congregation cheers)
  • 00:01:31.850 --> 00:01:34.353
  • You've got every spiritual blessing
  • 00:01:34.353 --> 00:01:37.289
  • That god has to give
  • 00:01:37.289 --> 00:01:38.524
  • And it's already living on the inside of you.
  • 00:01:38.524 --> 00:01:40.559
  • Tell your neighbor say it's already in there.
  • 00:01:40.559 --> 00:01:42.060
  • Tell 'em it's already in there.
  • 00:01:42.060 --> 00:01:44.329
  • "just as he chose
  • 00:01:44.329 --> 00:01:48.100
  • "us in him before the foundation of the world,
  • 00:01:48.100 --> 00:01:51.537
  • "that we should be holy without blame before him in love,"
  • 00:01:51.537 --> 00:01:54.306
  • Now let's break this down.
  • 00:01:54.306 --> 00:01:55.574
  • "just as he chose us in him"
  • 00:01:55.574 --> 00:02:00.112
  • Okay, what did he do?
  • 00:02:00.112 --> 00:02:01.046
  • He chose me.
  • 00:02:01.046 --> 00:02:01.880
  • When did he do it?
  • 00:02:01.880 --> 00:02:03.081
  • Before he said, "let there be light."
  • 00:02:03.081 --> 00:02:06.285
  • My goodness. (slow music)
  • 00:02:06.285 --> 00:02:09.855
  • Chose me to be what?
  • 00:02:09.855 --> 00:02:11.456
  • Holy, that means separate.
  • 00:02:11.456 --> 00:02:13.325
  • "without blame before him in love,"
  • 00:02:13.325 --> 00:02:15.994
  • Now, how does this dynamic of being chosen,
  • 00:02:15.994 --> 00:02:18.964
  • How does it play out?
  • 00:02:18.964 --> 00:02:20.098
  • Let me describe it.
  • 00:02:20.098 --> 00:02:21.066
  • "having predestined us
  • 00:02:21.066 --> 00:02:24.136
  • "to adoption as sons by christ jesus
  • 00:02:24.937 --> 00:02:28.340
  • "according to the good pleasure of his will,"
  • 00:02:29.274 --> 00:02:32.578
  • So he adopted, chosen means that
  • 00:02:32.578 --> 00:02:35.214
  • I'm adopted and predestined just because god wanted to.
  • 00:02:35.214 --> 00:02:41.153
  • (congregation claps)
  • 00:02:41.620 --> 00:02:42.854
  • He didn't need any other reason
  • 00:02:42.854 --> 00:02:45.891
  • Than he wanted to.
  • 00:02:46.325 --> 00:02:48.560
  • That is amazing.
  • 00:02:48.927 --> 00:02:51.263
  • Father, bless the reading of your word today
  • 00:02:52.197 --> 00:02:54.900
  • And give me supernatural communication power
  • 00:02:54.900 --> 00:02:58.470
  • That i don't care if they've been saved a day or 50 years,
  • 00:02:58.470 --> 00:03:02.608
  • Thank you that everyone has the spirit of understanding.
  • 00:03:03.742 --> 00:03:06.278
  • In jesus' name and everybody said
  • 00:03:06.278 --> 00:03:07.813
  • Amen. - [congregation] amen.
  • 00:03:07.813 --> 00:03:08.947
  • That's our custom every week.
  • 00:03:08.947 --> 00:03:10.482
  • Tell everyone on both sides, say here we go, here we go.
  • 00:03:10.482 --> 00:03:12.317
  • - [congregation] here we go!
  • 00:03:12.317 --> 00:03:14.586
  • - so when you see the word chosen
  • 00:03:14.586 --> 00:03:16.888
  • You gotta understand that your new testament,
  • 00:03:16.888 --> 00:03:19.458
  • The old testament was translated from hebrew,
  • 00:03:19.458 --> 00:03:22.060
  • The new testament was translated from greek.
  • 00:03:22.060 --> 00:03:24.997
  • And the greeks, sometimes in our english language
  • 00:03:24.997 --> 00:03:28.367
  • We are very deficient because we have one word
  • 00:03:28.367 --> 00:03:31.270
  • And those words are not very descriptive.
  • 00:03:31.270 --> 00:03:33.538
  • In other words, i gave you the example last week
  • 00:03:33.538 --> 00:03:35.474
  • Of love, and we love everything.
  • 00:03:35.474 --> 00:03:37.843
  • You know i told 'em we love our dog,
  • 00:03:37.843 --> 00:03:39.378
  • We love our cat, we love our car, we love our apartment,
  • 00:03:39.378 --> 00:03:40.879
  • We love our house, we love our kids, we love our wife,
  • 00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:44.316
  • We love grandpa, i mean we just love,
  • 00:03:44.316 --> 00:03:46.718
  • So we take one word and we just spread it like mayonnaise,
  • 00:03:46.718 --> 00:03:49.321
  • You know across everything. (congregation laughs)
  • 00:03:49.321 --> 00:03:51.390
  • The greeks did not do that.
  • 00:03:51.390 --> 00:03:52.924
  • They had four words for love.
  • 00:03:52.924 --> 00:03:55.060
  • It's the same way with the word word, kay?
  • 00:03:55.060 --> 00:03:58.730
  • So this word chosen is a greek word, kay?
  • 00:03:59.631 --> 00:04:03.435
  • Eklegomai, stay with me.
  • 00:04:03.435 --> 00:04:07.105
  • I promise i'll make it interesting in just minute.
  • 00:04:07.105 --> 00:04:09.808
  • Lego is the verb form of the noun logos.
  • 00:04:09.808 --> 00:04:13.545
  • Logos is the greek word for word.
  • 00:04:14.279 --> 00:04:17.316
  • How many of you know jesus' name was not always jesus?
  • 00:04:17.316 --> 00:04:21.386
  • His name was word.
  • 00:04:21.820 --> 00:04:23.822
  • The bible says that word is his eternal name.
  • 00:04:23.822 --> 00:04:27.192
  • The bible says there are three that testify in heaven.
  • 00:04:27.192 --> 00:04:29.728
  • We call it the godhead, many churches call it the trinity.
  • 00:04:29.728 --> 00:04:32.798
  • Actually the word trinity is not in the bible,
  • 00:04:32.798 --> 00:04:35.233
  • But it is a word that we use to describe the godhead.
  • 00:04:35.233 --> 00:04:38.603
  • It's the father, the word, and the spirit.
  • 00:04:38.603 --> 00:04:41.039
  • Now most of you say the father, the son, and the spirit.
  • 00:04:41.039 --> 00:04:43.542
  • He was only jesus while he was on earth.
  • 00:04:43.542 --> 00:04:46.345
  • Jesus was his earthly name.
  • 00:04:46.345 --> 00:04:48.413
  • Because he told mary, you shall bear a son,
  • 00:04:48.413 --> 00:04:50.949
  • He shall be called jesus
  • 00:04:50.949 --> 00:04:52.584
  • And he shall be emmanuel, god with us.
  • 00:04:52.584 --> 00:04:55.620
  • And the bible says, "in the beginning was the word."
  • 00:04:55.620 --> 00:04:58.390
  • John chapter one, and the word was with god
  • 00:04:58.390 --> 00:05:01.793
  • And the word was god and there's been nothing made
  • 00:05:01.793 --> 00:05:05.330
  • That was made without him.
  • 00:05:05.330 --> 00:05:07.099
  • So the bible says that the father, the word, and the spirit
  • 00:05:07.099 --> 00:05:10.769
  • Were all in eternity
  • 00:05:10.769 --> 00:05:12.471
  • And the word had a lot to do with creation
  • 00:05:12.471 --> 00:05:16.074
  • Because the bible said there was nothing made
  • 00:05:16.074 --> 00:05:18.276
  • That has been made without the word.
  • 00:05:18.276 --> 00:05:20.746
  • Now, what is a word?
  • 00:05:20.746 --> 00:05:22.013
  • A word is a communicator.
  • 00:05:22.013 --> 00:05:24.316
  • So we know that out of the three in the godhead,
  • 00:05:25.283 --> 00:05:28.720
  • The three in one,
  • 00:05:28.720 --> 00:05:29.888
  • That the word is the one that
  • 00:05:29.888 --> 00:05:31.423
  • God wants to use to communicate.
  • 00:05:31.423 --> 00:05:33.759
  • So what did he do?
  • 00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:35.227
  • The word, john chapter one down in verses 12 through 14,
  • 00:05:35.227 --> 00:05:39.064
  • Says that the word became flesh and dwelled among us,
  • 00:05:39.064 --> 00:05:43.635
  • That's jesus.
  • 00:05:43.635 --> 00:05:45.070
  • So the father and the word, the word left heaven,
  • 00:05:45.070 --> 00:05:47.839
  • And he became flesh and his name was jesus
  • 00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:50.742
  • And he dwelled among us and we beheld his glory.
  • 00:05:50.742 --> 00:05:53.712
  • And jesus said if you've seen me, you've seen the father.
  • 00:05:53.712 --> 00:05:56.415
  • (organ plays)
  • 00:05:56.415 --> 00:05:57.249
  • I am the father of one.
  • 00:05:57.249 --> 00:05:58.717
  • I only say what my father says.
  • 00:05:58.717 --> 00:06:00.786
  • I only do what i see my father do, come on somebody.
  • 00:06:00.786 --> 00:06:04.256
  • In other words he says,
  • 00:06:04.256 --> 00:06:05.490
  • If you've seen me you've seen god.
  • 00:06:05.490 --> 00:06:08.226
  • The word for word is logos.
  • 00:06:08.226 --> 00:06:10.328
  • Jesus said i am the logos of god.
  • 00:06:10.328 --> 00:06:13.131
  • I am the word of god.
  • 00:06:13.131 --> 00:06:14.933
  • I was there in the beginning
  • 00:06:14.933 --> 00:06:16.535
  • And i am here with you right now.
  • 00:06:16.535 --> 00:06:18.703
  • He's the father, the word, and the spirit.
  • 00:06:18.703 --> 00:06:21.139
  • Somebody shout amen.
  • 00:06:21.139 --> 00:06:22.407
  • - [congregation] amen! (congregation cheers)
  • 00:06:22.407 --> 00:06:26.077
  • - so logos is the greek word for word,
  • 00:06:26.077 --> 00:06:29.314
  • And it means the whole concept,
  • 00:06:29.314 --> 00:06:32.417
  • A full concept.
  • 00:06:32.784 --> 00:06:34.786
  • Now let me go to the next level.
  • 00:06:34.786 --> 00:06:37.055
  • This is the logos of god.
  • 00:06:37.055 --> 00:06:41.126
  • Got about 1800 to 2,000 pages in here.
  • 00:06:41.927 --> 00:06:45.630
  • This is the full.
  • 00:06:46.064 --> 00:06:47.432
  • This and jesus are the same.
  • 00:06:47.432 --> 00:06:50.936
  • This is the word or the logos of god.
  • 00:06:51.736 --> 00:06:54.773
  • This is the full concept.
  • 00:06:54.773 --> 00:06:57.042
  • So to get a full concept of my god,
  • 00:06:57.776 --> 00:07:01.980
  • And to get a full concept of what my life
  • 00:07:01.980 --> 00:07:05.550
  • Is supposed to be like now that i know him,
  • 00:07:05.550 --> 00:07:08.820
  • God has given me this.
  • 00:07:08.820 --> 00:07:10.589
  • This is the logos of god.
  • 00:07:10.589 --> 00:07:12.524
  • So i can watch jesus and i read the word,
  • 00:07:12.524 --> 00:07:16.661
  • And i get the logos, i get the whole concept.
  • 00:07:16.661 --> 00:07:19.631
  • Everything god wants to communicate is right here.
  • 00:07:19.631 --> 00:07:24.236
  • Now, there's another word for word
  • 00:07:24.236 --> 00:07:28.373
  • That the greeks used,
  • 00:07:28.373 --> 00:07:30.275
  • The word rhema.
  • 00:07:30.275 --> 00:07:32.744
  • Rhema is different from logos.
  • 00:07:33.378 --> 00:07:36.214
  • If logos would be a book,
  • 00:07:36.214 --> 00:07:39.251
  • Rhema would be a verse.
  • 00:07:39.751 --> 00:07:42.521
  • A rhema is when i reach in, stay with me,
  • 00:07:43.388 --> 00:07:47.492
  • The full concept and pull out a concept.
  • 00:07:47.492 --> 00:07:50.662
  • [congregation] yes, yes!
  • 00:07:50.662 --> 00:07:52.397
  • For instance, right now i'm preaching on chosen.
  • 00:07:52.397 --> 00:07:56.835
  • Do you know what that is to you today?
  • 00:07:57.669 --> 00:08:00.138
  • It is a rhema.
  • 00:08:00.138 --> 00:08:01.606
  • That's not everything god wants you to know,
  • 00:08:01.606 --> 00:08:04.776
  • But it is a word out of the word.
  • 00:08:05.443 --> 00:08:09.114
  • I'm pulling out ephesians 1:3,
  • 00:08:09.114 --> 00:08:11.650
  • A word out of the word.
  • 00:08:11.650 --> 00:08:14.553
  • So rhema is a concept out of the total concept.
  • 00:08:14.553 --> 00:08:19.791
  • So when the greeks would write the word word,
  • 00:08:20.692 --> 00:08:22.460
  • It's either logos or rhema.
  • 00:08:22.460 --> 00:08:24.462
  • For instance, in another place he wrote to the romans
  • 00:08:24.462 --> 00:08:27.198
  • And he said faith, how do you build your faith?
  • 00:08:27.198 --> 00:08:29.834
  • Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the rhema of god.
  • 00:08:29.834 --> 00:08:34.472
  • So in other words, your faith is being built right now
  • 00:08:34.472 --> 00:08:37.375
  • In the area of being chosen.
  • 00:08:37.375 --> 00:08:39.210
  • I believe god right now is driving out insecurity.
  • 00:08:39.210 --> 00:08:42.247
  • I believe god is driving out lack of value.
  • 00:08:42.247 --> 00:08:44.950
  • I believe god is driving out father wounds
  • 00:08:44.950 --> 00:08:47.485
  • And parent wounds. (organ plays)
  • 00:08:47.485 --> 00:08:48.520
  • I believe god is driving out
  • 00:08:48.520 --> 00:08:50.422
  • People who feel that like they've been abandoned.
  • 00:08:50.422 --> 00:08:52.657
  • This word is driving that out and building your faith
  • 00:08:52.657 --> 00:08:55.860
  • And all of a sudden, those voids you have felt,
  • 00:08:55.860 --> 00:08:58.363
  • You begin to say i was chosen, i was adopted,
  • 00:08:58.363 --> 00:09:01.900
  • I've been accepted, i'm in the family,
  • 00:09:01.900 --> 00:09:04.636
  • God handpicked me, god pulled me out,
  • 00:09:04.636 --> 00:09:07.272
  • And while god is filling you with faith on being chosen,
  • 00:09:07.272 --> 00:09:10.208
  • He's driving out those pains and deficiencies.
  • 00:09:10.208 --> 00:09:13.545
  • Oh my god, i feel something happening in this place.
  • 00:09:13.545 --> 00:09:16.314
  • Somebody shout, i'm chosen.
  • 00:09:16.314 --> 00:09:17.849

  • The real you came from christ
  • 00:09:34.432 --> 00:09:36.901
  • Before the foundations of the earth were laid.
  • 00:09:36.901 --> 00:09:39.571
  • You were already chosen in christ jesus
  • 00:09:39.571 --> 00:09:43.274

  • He had days ordained for you.

  • He said, i already ordained you.
  • 00:10:03.161 --> 00:10:05.263
  • He said, i knew everything about you

  • Before the foundations of the world.
  • 00:10:29.954 --> 00:10:32.023
  • That word chosen is ek, which means out of.
  • 00:10:32.023 --> 00:10:35.460
  • Lego is the verb form of the noun logos.
  • 00:10:36.327 --> 00:10:39.564
  • You were chosen out of word.
  • 00:10:40.165 --> 00:10:42.600
  • (congregation members cheer)
  • 00:10:42.600 --> 00:10:45.170
  • And this is where i ended last week.
  • 00:10:45.170 --> 00:10:47.839
  • You were chosen out of god himself.
  • 00:10:48.640 --> 00:10:51.476
  • (congregation members cheer)
  • 00:10:52.077 --> 00:10:54.546
  • I don't even know that i can
  • 00:10:54.546 --> 00:10:57.582
  • Wrap my mind around that.
  • 00:10:58.149 --> 00:11:00.118
  • 'cause you still going to see therapists
  • 00:11:00.952 --> 00:11:02.420
  • About how you were born,
  • 00:11:02.420 --> 00:11:03.988
  • (congregation laughs)
  • 00:11:03.988 --> 00:11:05.457
  • And how you got here and the flesh don't even matter.
  • 00:11:05.457 --> 00:11:07.592
  • (congregation claps)
  • 00:11:07.592 --> 00:11:09.027
  • Because that's where you were born,
  • 00:11:09.027 --> 00:11:10.528
  • But that's not where you were created.
  • 00:11:10.528 --> 00:11:12.063
  • (congregation cheers)
  • 00:11:12.063 --> 00:11:14.299
  • You were created in christ jesus before the,
  • 00:11:14.299 --> 00:11:16.801
  • Excuse me (yells). (organ plays)
  • 00:11:16.801 --> 00:11:19.637
  • You were created in christ jesus
  • 00:11:19.637 --> 00:11:21.473
  • Before the foundations of the earth.
  • 00:11:21.473 --> 00:11:27.145
  • Is this all right?
  • 00:11:27.579 --> 00:11:29.314
  • [congregation] yes!
  • 00:11:29.314 --> 00:11:31.282
  • So if i was chosen out of the logos,
  • 00:11:31.282 --> 00:11:35.587
  • God, in the beginning was the word the logos
  • 00:11:36.521 --> 00:11:39.724
  • And the word was god and the word was with.
  • 00:11:39.724 --> 00:11:42.260
  • If i was chosen out of word
  • 00:11:42.260 --> 00:11:44.295
  • Then that means my life is a word out of the word.
  • 00:11:44.295 --> 00:11:49.868
  • (congregation claps)
  • 00:11:50.335 --> 00:11:52.971
  • So a word is a communicator.
  • 00:11:52.971 --> 00:11:55.940
  • That means i was born to say something.
  • 00:11:55.940 --> 00:11:58.743
  • (congregation clap)
  • 00:11:58.743 --> 00:12:02.680
  • In other words, i was put here for not my mouth,
  • 00:12:03.648 --> 00:12:07.218
  • But my life to speak. (congregation members clap)
  • 00:12:07.218 --> 00:12:12.457
  • People who been through tremendous hardships
  • 00:12:13.358 --> 00:12:15.460
  • And betrayals and valleys don't understand
  • 00:12:15.460 --> 00:12:18.062
  • That maybe your life is supposed to speak
  • 00:12:18.062 --> 00:12:20.465
  • Of the grace of god. (congregation members clap)
  • 00:12:20.465 --> 00:12:25.270
  • Those who have suffered great loss
  • 00:12:25.270 --> 00:12:27.238
  • And now god has you back in a high place,
  • 00:12:27.238 --> 00:12:29.874
  • Maybe you didn't know that your life was created
  • 00:12:29.874 --> 00:12:32.310
  • To speak of the restoration power of god.
  • 00:12:32.310 --> 00:12:35.246
  • Maybe you didn't understand that
  • 00:12:35.246 --> 00:12:37.081
  • Your life has been put here to,
  • 00:12:37.081 --> 00:12:39.317
  • You are a word out of the (organ starts)
  • 00:12:39.317 --> 00:12:41.119
  • Your life doesn't say everything about god
  • 00:12:41.119 --> 00:12:43.621
  • But it should say something. (congregation cheers)
  • 00:12:43.621 --> 00:12:52.363
  • Now when was i chosen,
  • 00:12:52.864 --> 00:12:55.967
  • Before the foundations.
  • 00:12:56.467 --> 00:12:58.803
  • The word foundations means substructures and conception.
  • 00:12:58.803 --> 00:13:02.707
  • So the bible says the earth was without form and void
  • 00:13:03.808 --> 00:13:06.110
  • And darkness covered the face of the deep
  • 00:13:06.110 --> 00:13:07.745
  • And the spirit of god hovered.
  • 00:13:07.745 --> 00:13:09.681
  • That word hovered there is a very intimate term.
  • 00:13:10.648 --> 00:13:13.351
  • It would be the same term that the hebrews would use
  • 00:13:13.351 --> 00:13:15.987
  • For a man hovering over his wife
  • 00:13:15.987 --> 00:13:17.655
  • At the time of conception.
  • 00:13:17.655 --> 00:13:19.691
  • So it said that god hovered over
  • 00:13:19.691 --> 00:13:22.393
  • The nothingness ready to make it conceive.
  • 00:13:22.393 --> 00:13:25.730
  • (congregation members cheer)
  • 00:13:25.730 --> 00:13:27.465
  • What is god's seed?
  • 00:13:27.465 --> 00:13:29.200
  • God's seed is his word.
  • 00:13:29.200 --> 00:13:31.436
  • After he hovered he said (congregation cheers),
  • 00:13:31.436 --> 00:13:34.572
  • And when he said, and it was it was, ah.
  • 00:13:35.440 --> 00:13:39.444
  • And god said, let there be light and there was light,
  • 00:13:40.511 --> 00:13:42.180
  • And god created the substructures, what does that mean?
  • 00:13:42.180 --> 00:13:44.983
  • He created the earth,
  • 00:13:44.983 --> 00:13:46.084
  • He created the skies,
  • 00:13:46.084 --> 00:13:47.218
  • He created the waters, he separated.
  • 00:13:47.218 --> 00:13:48.553
  • He created the day, he created the night,
  • 00:13:48.553 --> 00:13:50.521
  • He created the hot, he created the cold.
  • 00:13:50.521 --> 00:13:51.956
  • He put all the substructures of the world together
  • 00:13:51.956 --> 00:13:54.993
  • Because it conceived as soon as he spoke.
  • 00:13:54.993 --> 00:13:58.096
  • So the bible is saying the god chose me out of a word
  • 00:13:58.096 --> 00:14:03.434
  • For my life to come into this earth
  • 00:14:04.235 --> 00:14:05.803
  • (organ plays) and say something.
  • 00:14:05.803 --> 00:14:07.105
  • God chose me before the earth ever conceived
  • 00:14:07.105 --> 00:14:10.909
  • And god ever said, let there be light.
  • 00:14:10.909 --> 00:14:13.077
  • (congregation cheers)
  • 00:14:13.077 --> 00:14:16.881
  • So what i take from that is
  • 00:14:16.881 --> 00:14:22.153
  • Somewhere in eternity before time began,
  • 00:14:23.021 --> 00:14:27.358
  • God had a meeting.
  • 00:14:27.792 --> 00:14:29.861
  • The works of god were established,
  • 00:14:30.628 --> 00:14:32.263
  • The lamb was slain in that meeting,
  • 00:14:32.263 --> 00:14:35.433
  • And you and i were in the lamb
  • 00:14:36.067 --> 00:14:38.136
  • (congregation members cheers)
  • 00:14:38.770 --> 00:14:39.604
  • In that meeting, kay?
  • 00:14:39.604 --> 00:14:43.174
  • So now, what does chosen look like?
  • 00:14:43.975 --> 00:14:51.516
  • How do you flesh it out?
  • 00:14:52.016 --> 00:14:53.885
  • Good church word, pastor.
  • 00:14:53.885 --> 00:14:55.887
  • But what does that look like tomorrow on second shift?
  • 00:14:55.887 --> 00:14:59.023
  • (congregation laughs)
  • 00:14:59.023 --> 00:14:59.958
  • He said, before the foundations
  • 00:14:59.958 --> 00:15:01.592
  • The end results was that you'd be holy,
  • 00:15:01.592 --> 00:15:03.161
  • You'd be separate, you'd be distinct,
  • 00:15:03.161 --> 00:15:04.495
  • You'd be different from everybody,
  • 00:15:04.495 --> 00:15:05.964
  • And that you'd be without blame.
  • 00:15:05.964 --> 00:15:07.298
  • Jesus will perfect you by the blood
  • 00:15:07.298 --> 00:15:08.833
  • And you'll stand before god without guilt and shame.
  • 00:15:08.833 --> 00:15:10.668
  • He says, now here's the nature of it,
  • 00:15:10.668 --> 00:15:14.439
  • We have been predestined.
  • 00:15:14.439 --> 00:15:16.774
  • Predestined is actually a contradictory word.
  • 00:15:16.774 --> 00:15:21.646
  • Because the prefix pre means before,
  • 00:15:21.646 --> 00:15:26.284
  • And the word destiny means last or end.
  • 00:15:26.284 --> 00:15:29.620
  • You take the two of 'em and put 'em together,
  • 00:15:30.555 --> 00:15:35.626
  • Predestined, first last.
  • 00:15:36.127 --> 00:15:42.767
  • The nature of being chosen means that god
  • 00:15:43.668 --> 00:15:48.072
  • Goes to the end of your life and determines it
  • 00:15:48.072 --> 00:15:51.476
  • (congregation cheers)
  • 00:15:51.476 --> 00:15:53.511
  • And then walks you back at the beginning,
  • 00:15:53.511 --> 00:15:56.748
  • And then says all things work together
  • 00:15:57.548 --> 00:16:00.318
  • For the good (organ plays)
  • 00:16:00.318 --> 00:16:01.219
  • Of those that love god
  • 00:16:01.219 --> 00:16:02.620
  • And who are called according to his purpose.
  • 00:16:02.620 --> 00:16:05.023
  • For those he did foreknew,
  • 00:16:05.023 --> 00:16:06.591
  • He did predestine.
  • 00:16:06.591 --> 00:16:08.026
  • Those he predestined, he called.
  • 00:16:08.026 --> 00:16:09.694
  • Those he called, he justified.
  • 00:16:09.694 --> 00:16:11.129
  • Those he justified, he glorified.
  • 00:16:11.129 --> 00:16:13.498
  • How can god promise you everything gon' work out
  • 00:16:13.498 --> 00:16:16.200
  • Unless he already knows what it is he's trying to work out?
  • 00:16:16.200 --> 00:16:19.670
  • (congregation cheers)
  • 00:16:19.670 --> 00:16:25.043
  • Now that does not mean fate.
  • 00:16:25.643 --> 00:16:29.580
  • What this means simply is this,
  • 00:16:30.214 --> 00:16:32.450
  • In eternity your purpose and destiny
  • 00:16:32.450 --> 00:16:37.822
  • Has already been determined and chosen by your god.
  • 00:16:38.856 --> 00:16:43.127
  • Whether or not you fulfill it will be up to you.
  • 00:16:44.128 --> 00:16:47.865
  • (congregation members clap)
  • 00:16:48.466 --> 00:16:51.035
  • See this, the bible, gives me all
  • 00:16:51.035 --> 00:16:56.474
  • Of the general and broad guidelines
  • 00:16:57.208 --> 00:16:58.709
  • Of god's truth that help me walk in a blessed life.
  • 00:16:58.709 --> 00:17:02.513
  • This is a pathway to a kingdom life.
  • 00:17:02.513 --> 00:17:05.750
  • In other words, this book is filled
  • 00:17:05.750 --> 00:17:07.185
  • With life as heaven knows it.
  • 00:17:07.185 --> 00:17:10.254
  • This life has in it the keys of the kingdom of heaven.
  • 00:17:11.322 --> 00:17:18.262
  • So when i submit my life to these truths,
  • 00:17:19.163 --> 00:17:24.402
  • I bring heaven into it.
  • 00:17:24.902 --> 00:17:26.437
  • [congregation member] yes! and heaven is perfection.
  • 00:17:26.437 --> 00:17:28.940
  • In other words, god's original intent
  • 00:17:29.740 --> 00:17:32.610
  • Was not for the earth to be in chaos,
  • 00:17:32.610 --> 00:17:34.679
  • But earth to be governed just like heaven was governed.
  • 00:17:34.679 --> 00:17:36.848
  • That's why he put adam here to govern it.
  • 00:17:36.848 --> 00:17:39.617
  • But after adam lost his authority to do so
  • 00:17:39.617 --> 00:17:41.719
  • What did jesus say,
  • 00:17:41.719 --> 00:17:42.987
  • The first thing he gave you back was?
  • 00:17:42.987 --> 00:17:44.222
  • All authority has been given unto me.
  • 00:17:44.222 --> 00:17:46.390
  • Here, i give you the keys of the kingdom.
  • 00:17:46.390 --> 00:17:48.326
  • Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven,
  • 00:17:48.326 --> 00:17:50.161
  • Whatever you loose on earth will be loosed.
  • 00:17:50.161 --> 00:17:52.096
  • God creates the destiny,
  • 00:17:52.096 --> 00:17:54.398
  • And you have to figure out whether or not
  • 00:17:54.398 --> 00:17:56.033
  • You gon' use the keys.
  • 00:17:56.033 --> 00:17:57.768
  • (congregation exclaims)
  • 00:17:57.768 --> 00:17:59.504
  • So if the bible gives me
  • 00:17:59.504 --> 00:18:00.938
  • God's general guidelines for my life,
  • 00:18:00.938 --> 00:18:04.008
  • I need the holy spirit
  • 00:18:04.008 --> 00:18:06.210
  • For the day to day of my walk with god.
  • 00:18:07.044 --> 00:18:10.548
  • For instance, i can open up to romans 8:13
  • 00:18:10.548 --> 00:18:15.286
  • And then say, should i take that job in san diego?
  • 00:18:16.287 --> 00:18:20.424
  • (congregation laughs)
  • 00:18:20.424 --> 00:18:25.830
  • It doesn't tell me that.
  • 00:18:26.330 --> 00:18:27.565
  • Tells me to love my neighbor,
  • 00:18:27.565 --> 00:18:29.433
  • Tells me to forgive,
  • 00:18:29.901 --> 00:18:31.569
  • Tells me to honor god with my possessions.
  • 00:18:31.569 --> 00:18:34.172
  • It don't tell me whether or not to take the job.
  • 00:18:35.139 --> 00:18:37.642
  • That's where your anointing (laughs)
  • 00:18:37.642 --> 00:18:40.678
  • (congregation cheers)
  • 00:18:40.678 --> 00:18:42.547
  • And the holy spirit lives on the inside of you
  • 00:18:42.547 --> 00:18:45.316
  • Who already knows your destiny.
  • 00:18:45.316 --> 00:18:50.721
  • Aight, let me back up, let me back up.
  • 00:18:51.556 --> 00:18:54.158
  • God takes the future of a thing
  • 00:18:54.792 --> 00:18:57.195
  • And he hides it inside the thing.
  • 00:18:57.195 --> 00:19:02.400
  • Where is the apple's future?
  • 00:19:03.000 --> 00:19:05.670
  • I cut the apple in half
  • 00:19:05.670 --> 00:19:07.038
  • And you see a core with some seeds.
  • 00:19:07.038 --> 00:19:09.073
  • The future of the apple is in the apple
  • 00:19:09.073 --> 00:19:11.442
  • Because god takes the future of a thing
  • 00:19:12.310 --> 00:19:14.779
  • And hides it in the thing.
  • 00:19:14.779 --> 00:19:17.048
  • So it is with you,
  • 00:19:17.048 --> 00:19:18.549
  • If you're anointed and the holy spirit lives within you
  • 00:19:18.549 --> 00:19:21.452
  • God has put your whole life inside of that anointing,
  • 00:19:21.452 --> 00:19:24.789
  • Inside the holy spirit and he knows your future
  • 00:19:24.789 --> 00:19:27.391
  • And romans may not tell me whether or not to take that job,
  • 00:19:27.391 --> 00:19:30.661
  • But the bible says that god will
  • 00:19:30.661 --> 00:19:32.897
  • Give me peace where he's leading me,
  • 00:19:32.897 --> 00:19:34.932
  • And i can understand that where i need to go
  • 00:19:34.932 --> 00:19:37.435
  • In a point of decision,
  • 00:19:37.435 --> 00:19:38.736
  • When i come to the fork in the road in life,
  • 00:19:38.736 --> 00:19:41.038
  • The holy spirit will be my guide
  • 00:19:41.038 --> 00:19:43.174
  • And keep me on track and then i know that
  • 00:19:43.174 --> 00:19:45.676
  • The steps of a good man are ordered by the lord.
  • 00:19:45.676 --> 00:19:49.113
  • I am preaching today.
  • 00:19:49.113 --> 00:19:50.681
  • I don't know if you know it or not, i'm preaching!
  • 00:19:50.681 --> 00:19:55.486
  • Now, let me start finishing this thing out.
  • 00:19:56.420 --> 00:20:00.558
  • Put joel two on the screen if you would, jonah.
  • 00:20:00.558 --> 00:20:03.594
  • "so i will restore," huh.
  • 00:20:03.594 --> 00:20:08.266
  • Aight, you know the bible,
  • 00:20:08.833 --> 00:20:10.501
  • I don't know if you know this or not,
  • 00:20:10.501 --> 00:20:11.636
  • I quote it quite often.
  • 00:20:11.636 --> 00:20:12.837
  • Hopefully you hear me quoting it.
  • 00:20:12.837 --> 00:20:14.572
  • Bible says that a man's years upon the earth are 120.
  • 00:20:14.572 --> 00:20:18.109
  • So let's say your years are 120 upon the earth,
  • 00:20:19.043 --> 00:20:21.545
  • And this is your timeline,
  • 00:20:21.545 --> 00:20:23.080
  • This is your life.
  • 00:20:23.080 --> 00:20:24.382
  • And let's say god has predestined your entire life,
  • 00:20:25.449 --> 00:20:30.721
  • But let's say for 34 years you act like a fool,
  • 00:20:31.689 --> 00:20:34.225
  • (congregation laughs)
  • 00:20:34.225 --> 00:20:35.426
  • Just crazy, just crazy.
  • 00:20:35.426 --> 00:20:38.696
  • Now let's say 34 years old, you walk in redemption,
  • 00:20:38.696 --> 00:20:41.966
  • And i tell you about this man named jesus
  • 00:20:41.966 --> 00:20:43.934
  • Where you can run to him with all your chains.
  • 00:20:43.934 --> 00:20:46.070
  • (congregation cheers)
  • 00:20:46.070 --> 00:20:47.571
  • And you accept jesus christ as your lord and savior,
  • 00:20:47.571 --> 00:20:50.908
  • And then almost a regret comes over you.
  • 00:20:51.742 --> 00:20:55.579
  • Because you say i lost 34 years acting crazy
  • 00:20:56.514 --> 00:21:02.253
  • When i could've been walking under the blessing of god.
  • 00:21:03.354 --> 00:21:08.726
  • Joel chapter two says,
  • 00:21:09.226 --> 00:21:10.461
  • "i will restore to you the years,"
  • 00:21:10.461 --> 00:21:12.863
  • And understand i told you earlier
  • 00:21:12.863 --> 00:21:14.699
  • That the commerce of the day was agriculture,
  • 00:21:14.699 --> 00:21:17.468
  • So what was the enemy of the day
  • 00:21:17.468 --> 00:21:19.570
  • That caused them to suffer loss, locusts.
  • 00:21:19.570 --> 00:21:23.040
  • So whenever they talked about loss,
  • 00:21:23.040 --> 00:21:24.942
  • The analogy or the symbolism there was locusts.
  • 00:21:24.942 --> 00:21:27.978
  • So today it wouldn't be locusts,
  • 00:21:27.978 --> 00:21:29.447
  • It would be time.
  • 00:21:29.447 --> 00:21:30.948
  • So god says, "i will restore to you"
  • 00:21:31.749 --> 00:21:35.219
  • That 34 years where you acted crazy.
  • 00:21:35.986 --> 00:21:39.557
  • After he restores you, listen to this,
  • 00:21:40.358 --> 00:21:41.726
  • "and it shall come to pass afterward."
  • 00:21:41.726 --> 00:21:43.227
  • After what?
  • 00:21:43.227 --> 00:21:44.161
  • After i give it all back.
  • 00:21:44.161 --> 00:21:47.231
  • "that i will pour out my spirit
  • 00:21:47.865 --> 00:21:49.667
  • "and your sons and daughters shall prophesy."
  • 00:21:49.667 --> 00:21:52.303
  • What is prophecy?
  • 00:21:52.303 --> 00:21:53.337
  • Prophecy is future,
  • 00:21:53.337 --> 00:21:55.940
  • Prophecy doesn't have anything to do with the past.
  • 00:21:55.940 --> 00:21:58.509
  • "that i will pour out my spirit,
  • 00:21:58.509 --> 00:21:59.810
  • "your sons and daughters shall prophesy,
  • 00:21:59.810 --> 00:22:01.645
  • Continue here,
  • 00:22:01.645 --> 00:22:02.813
  • "your old men shall dream dreams,
  • 00:22:02.813 --> 00:22:04.849
  • "and your young men shall see visions.
  • 00:22:04.849 --> 00:22:07.084
  • In other words, he said this is what i'll do.
  • 00:22:07.084 --> 00:22:09.420
  • He said, you think you lost 34 years
  • 00:22:09.420 --> 00:22:11.789
  • Of your life acting crazy,
  • 00:22:11.789 --> 00:22:13.257
  • He said, but i got a plan that i had from age 34 to 120.
  • 00:22:13.257 --> 00:22:18.662
  • He said, i'm gonna bless you with all of that plan.
  • 00:22:19.663 --> 00:22:21.165
  • He said, but i'm gonna reach in here
  • 00:22:21.165 --> 00:22:22.633
  • From what the devil stole from you
  • 00:22:22.633 --> 00:22:24.835
  • And i'ma take all the blessings and that
  • 00:22:24.835 --> 00:22:26.837
  • And i'm gonna mash it in the time you had left.
  • 00:22:26.837 --> 00:22:30.408
  • So if you're living for god,
  • 00:22:30.408 --> 00:22:32.109
  • You get the now blessings and god reaches back
  • 00:22:32.109 --> 00:22:35.146
  • In the years you lost and takes those blessings,
  • 00:22:35.146 --> 00:22:37.648
  • And he pours 'em onto your life
  • 00:22:37.648 --> 00:22:39.683
  • And then he says i'm gon' give you a spirit
  • 00:22:39.683 --> 00:22:41.919
  • That causes you to be a dreamer,
  • 00:22:41.919 --> 00:22:44.355
  • That causes you to be prophetic,
  • 00:22:44.355 --> 00:22:46.424
  • That causes you to see the future,
  • 00:22:46.424 --> 00:22:48.426
  • And i am gonna cause you not to be one
  • 00:22:48.426 --> 00:22:50.728
  • That regrets the mistakes of the past.
  • 00:22:50.728 --> 00:22:56.400

  • - you know, i hope that you are enjoying this series, i am.
  • 00:23:27.131 --> 00:23:30.100
  • I'm certainly enjoying studying for it,
  • 00:23:30.100 --> 00:23:31.735
  • Preparing for it,
  • 00:23:31.735 --> 00:23:33.070
  • I'm certainly enjoying the time
  • 00:23:33.070 --> 00:23:34.572
  • Where i get to preach it to this local congregation
  • 00:23:34.572 --> 00:23:37.208
  • And take it and put it all over the world
  • 00:23:37.208 --> 00:23:39.443
  • And hopefully get it to you.
  • 00:23:39.443 --> 00:23:41.545
  • You know, i wanna talk to you a moment about giving,
  • 00:23:41.545 --> 00:23:44.615
  • And i hope that you wouldn't turn the tv channel
  • 00:23:44.615 --> 00:23:47.017
  • Because you know what, if this is a blessing to you
  • 00:23:47.017 --> 00:23:49.653
  • It only gets there one way.

  • We are viewer supported,

  • We are listener supported,
  • 00:23:53.757 --> 00:23:55.025
  • However you wanna put it.
  • 00:23:55.025 --> 00:23:56.260
  • But the fact is it has been by generous people
  • 00:23:56.260 --> 00:23:59.830
  • Who have said this is a blessing to me,
  • 00:23:59.830 --> 00:24:02.600
  • And i wanna make sure that it stays healthy,
  • 00:24:02.600 --> 00:24:04.268
  • I wanna make sure that it expands,
  • 00:24:04.268 --> 00:24:05.803
  • That it stays strong.
  • 00:24:05.803 --> 00:24:07.872
  • I've never done big spiels,
  • 00:24:08.472 --> 00:24:09.807
  • I've never taken half of our program timing
  • 00:24:09.807 --> 00:24:12.510
  • To become a fundraiser.
  • 00:24:12.510 --> 00:24:14.111
  • In fact, don't even really enjoy
  • 00:24:14.111 --> 00:24:15.646
  • The fundraising aspect much at all,
  • 00:24:15.646 --> 00:24:17.381
  • But it's necessary to do what we do.
  • 00:24:17.381 --> 00:24:19.750
  • You notice we don't sell ads,
  • 00:24:19.750 --> 00:24:21.218
  • You notice we don't have commercials,
  • 00:24:21.218 --> 00:24:22.620
  • You notice we don't break away,
  • 00:24:22.620 --> 00:24:24.755
  • And we don't advertise a hamburger,
  • 00:24:24.755 --> 00:24:26.790
  • We don't advertise a set of tires.
  • 00:24:26.790 --> 00:24:28.692
  • We just come to you and say
  • 00:24:28.692 --> 00:24:29.927
  • Is god blessing you through this ministry?
  • 00:24:29.927 --> 00:24:32.796
  • And we have many who have responded
  • 00:24:32.796 --> 00:24:34.698
  • Over the years and said yeah
  • 00:24:34.698 --> 00:24:35.900
  • And have been so faithful, so faithful.
  • 00:24:35.900 --> 00:24:38.736
  • For that, we're grateful,
  • 00:24:38.736 --> 00:24:40.037
  • To that we say thank you.
  • 00:24:40.037 --> 00:24:41.605
  • But we understand that now that our audience is growing.
  • 00:24:41.605 --> 00:24:44.174
  • We understand that the numbers are expanding.
  • 00:24:44.174 --> 00:24:46.076
  • We understand that god is putting us in places
  • 00:24:46.076 --> 00:24:48.612
  • He's never been before.
  • 00:24:48.612 --> 00:24:49.780
  • We know that in spanish speaking nations,
  • 00:24:49.780 --> 00:24:52.016
  • We just went on 60 new television stations
  • 00:24:52.016 --> 00:24:55.319
  • Across all of these nations, much of the world.
  • 00:24:55.319 --> 00:24:57.621
  • And now we're being translated into español everywhere,
  • 00:24:57.621 --> 00:25:00.558
  • And you know what, we just keep getting new opportunities,
  • 00:25:00.558 --> 00:25:03.360
  • But with new opportunities comes new investment.
  • 00:25:03.360 --> 00:25:05.996
  • I wanna ask those of you who've been giving,
  • 00:25:06.897 --> 00:25:08.332
  • Would you consider maybe you're most sacrificial gift.
  • 00:25:08.332 --> 00:25:12.403
  • Would you consider giving like you've never given before?
  • 00:25:13.537 --> 00:25:16.574
  • Because i hate for opportunities for the gospel
  • 00:25:16.574 --> 00:25:19.143
  • To slip through my fingers.
  • 00:25:19.143 --> 00:25:20.644
  • We're being presented with ways
  • 00:25:20.644 --> 00:25:21.946
  • To get the message of the kingdom,
  • 00:25:21.946 --> 00:25:23.247
  • I mean not everybody preaches the same thing.
  • 00:25:23.247 --> 00:25:25.849
  • I'm grateful for all the men and women of god,
  • 00:25:25.849 --> 00:25:28.385
  • And i'm grateful for the message god has given them,
  • 00:25:28.385 --> 00:25:30.854
  • But the message god has put in my heart
  • 00:25:30.854 --> 00:25:32.356
  • Is the message of the kingdom.
  • 00:25:32.356 --> 00:25:33.891
  • I do think it is the message where jesus said seek first.
  • 00:25:33.891 --> 00:25:37.494
  • And so we're trying to give it the priority
  • 00:25:37.494 --> 00:25:39.363
  • In our teaching and preaching.
  • 00:25:39.363 --> 00:25:40.931
  • I need your help.
  • 00:25:40.931 --> 00:25:42.399
  • Maybe you've never ever given to a ministry before.
  • 00:25:42.399 --> 00:25:45.235
  • Maybe this could be the first time.
  • 00:25:45.235 --> 00:25:47.104
  • We have two different ways,
  • 00:25:47.104 --> 00:25:48.639
  • A one time gift or even to become a monthly partner.
  • 00:25:48.639 --> 00:25:51.175
  • And either way, if this is your first time
  • 00:25:51.175 --> 00:25:54.044
  • We have this very special gift that we're gonna give you
  • 00:25:54.044 --> 00:25:57.548
  • To say thank you thank you for helping us.
  • 00:25:57.548 --> 00:26:00.317
  • Thank you for believing in us.
  • 00:26:00.317 --> 00:26:01.919
  • I thank you that you give to god
  • 00:26:01.919 --> 00:26:03.454
  • And god will reward you for your giving,
  • 00:26:03.454 --> 00:26:06.023
  • But i thank you that you trust us
  • 00:26:06.023 --> 00:26:07.758
  • Because when you give in the kingdom
  • 00:26:07.758 --> 00:26:09.226
  • You have to find a conduit through which
  • 00:26:09.226 --> 00:26:11.495
  • Your blessing will flow,
  • 00:26:11.495 --> 00:26:13.030
  • And if you've chosen ron carpenter television
  • 00:26:13.030 --> 00:26:15.432
  • To be that place, i can't say thank you enough.
  • 00:26:15.432 --> 00:26:18.102
  • I want you to go hit us up on twitter,
  • 00:26:18.102 --> 00:26:20.070
  • Hit us up on facebook and instagram, why?
  • 00:26:20.070 --> 00:26:22.339
  • Because if you want more, we're talking more,
  • 00:26:22.339 --> 00:26:24.808
  • We're praying more, we're doing more clips,
  • 00:26:24.808 --> 00:26:27.177
  • We're doing inspirationals,
  • 00:26:27.177 --> 00:26:28.312
  • We're doing devotionals.
  • 00:26:28.312 --> 00:26:29.513
  • There's no telling when a word in season
  • 00:26:29.513 --> 00:26:31.682
  • May speak directly to your heart.
  • 00:26:31.682 --> 00:26:33.517
  • I hope that this has been blessing you
  • 00:26:33.517 --> 00:26:36.053
  • And we so enjoy our time together.
  • 00:26:36.053 --> 00:26:37.388
