We don't deal with anything that we need to work on.

That we need to work on. we don't deal with anything
00:00:21.641 --> 00:00:22.609
We don't deal with anything that's stressing us out.
00:00:22.675 --> 00:00:24.110
That's stressing us out. we just rebuke the devil
00:00:24.177 --> 00:00:25.412
We just rebuke the devil of stress.
00:00:25.478 --> 00:00:25.912
Of stress. but if you rebuke the devil
00:00:25.979 --> 00:00:26.980
But if you rebuke the devil of stress without fixing
00:00:27.047 --> 00:00:28.648
Of stress without fixing the source where some
00:00:28.715 --> 00:00:29.516
The source where some of your stressful
00:00:29.582 --> 00:00:30.350

Situations are coming from... [applause]
00:00:31.951 --> 00:00:35.822
[applause] i was trying to rebuke
00:00:35.889 --> 00:00:36.656
I was trying to rebuke the devil one time and it was
00:00:36.723 --> 00:00:37.891
The devil one time and it was like the holy spirit said to me,
00:00:37.957 --> 00:00:38.992
Like the holy spirit said to me, "you're trying to
00:00:39.059 --> 00:00:39.959
"you're trying to rebuke the devil,
00:00:40.026 --> 00:00:40.693
Rebuke the devil, when you need to
00:00:40.760 --> 00:00:41.227
When you need to rebuke your decisions,
00:00:41.294 --> 00:00:42.562
Rebuke your decisions, and reverse them,
00:00:42.629 --> 00:00:43.029
And reverse them, and make better ones."
00:00:43.096 --> 00:00:43.963
And make better ones." [cheering and applause]
00:00:44.030 --> 00:00:47.167
[cheering and applause] am i reading your mail?
00:00:47.233 --> 00:00:48.401
Am i reading your mail? [laughter]
00:00:48.468 --> 00:00:50.003
[laughter] is that what that feels like?
00:00:50.070 --> 00:00:52.972
Is that what that feels like? yeah, so he didn't rip up
00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:55.108
Yeah, so he didn't rip up the letter, but i think
00:00:55.175 --> 00:00:57.043
The letter, but i think a lot of times how we're taught
00:00:57.110 --> 00:00:58.211
A lot of times how we're taught to do this faith thing, right?
00:00:58.278 --> 00:00:59.446
To do this faith thing, right? like, just a, "oh no,
00:00:59.512 --> 00:01:03.083
Like, just a, "oh no, i believe god's gonna make
00:01:03.149 --> 00:01:05.285
I believe god's gonna make it better and it doesn't
00:01:05.351 --> 00:01:06.286
It better and it doesn't matter what the enemy says."
00:01:06.352 --> 00:01:07.287
Matter what the enemy says." well, the truth is,
00:01:07.353 --> 00:01:07.787
Well, the truth is, there are some things
00:01:07.854 --> 00:01:08.621
There are some things that we have to deal with.
00:01:08.688 --> 00:01:09.823
That we have to deal with. this is not a king
00:01:09.889 --> 00:01:10.690
This is not a king who's receiving a threat
00:01:10.757 --> 00:01:11.825
Who's receiving a threat that he can just ignore.
00:01:11.891 --> 00:01:13.259
That he can just ignore. he actually does have
00:01:13.326 --> 00:01:14.661
He actually does have to respond to this threat.
00:01:14.727 --> 00:01:16.429
To respond to this threat. because as we read
00:01:16.496 --> 00:01:18.064
Because as we read at the end of the chapter,
00:01:18.131 --> 00:01:19.833
At the end of the chapter, there's 185,000
00:01:19.899 --> 00:01:21.868
There's 185,000 assyrian soldiers
00:01:21.935 --> 00:01:23.369
Assyrian soldiers waiting to take him out.
00:01:23.436 --> 00:01:25.505
Waiting to take him out. so, if he gets the letter
00:01:25.572 --> 00:01:26.606
So, if he gets the letter saying, "hey, we're coming in,"
00:01:26.673 --> 00:01:28.274
Saying, "hey, we're coming in," and just goes, "i don't --
00:01:28.341 --> 00:01:29.409
And just goes, "i don't -- i don't focus on the negative.
00:01:29.476 --> 00:01:31.511
I don't focus on the negative. i'm an optimist."
00:01:31.578 --> 00:01:32.579
I'm an optimist." [laughter]
00:01:32.645 --> 00:01:35.248
[laughter] you're gonna be a dead optimist.
00:01:35.315 --> 00:01:36.716
You're gonna be a dead optimist. you're gonna be an optimist
00:01:36.783 --> 00:01:38.451
You're gonna be an optimist with a crown on, is what
00:01:38.518 --> 00:01:39.519
With a crown on, is what you're going to be, hezekiah.
00:01:39.586 --> 00:01:41.521
You're going to be, hezekiah. an optimist with a crown
00:01:41.588 --> 00:01:42.989
An optimist with a crown and a -- but there's gonna be
00:01:43.056 --> 00:01:44.290
And a -- but there's gonna be no head on your shoulders.
00:01:44.357 --> 00:01:45.625
No head on your shoulders. it's gonna be rolling
00:01:45.692 --> 00:01:46.292
It's gonna be rolling on the floor.
00:01:46.359 --> 00:01:46.693
On the floor. you're gonna be a opt --
00:01:46.759 --> 00:01:47.861
You're gonna be a opt -- a headless optimist.
00:01:47.927 --> 00:01:49.762
A headless optimist. a dead optimist.
00:01:49.829 --> 00:01:51.431
A dead optimist. and a lot of people
00:01:51.498 --> 00:01:52.031
And a lot of people are like that when it
00:01:52.098 --> 00:01:52.799
Are like that when it comes to their faith.
00:01:52.866 --> 00:01:55.034
Comes to their faith. "i rebuke this bill."
00:01:55.101 --> 00:01:56.369
"i rebuke this bill." [laughter]
00:01:56.436 --> 00:01:59.939
[laughter] [applause]
00:02:00.006 --> 00:02:02.876
[applause] the power company doesn't cut
00:02:02.942 --> 00:02:04.410
The power company doesn't cut it back on because you said,
00:02:04.477 --> 00:02:05.979
It back on because you said, "let there be light."
00:02:06.045 --> 00:02:07.080
"let there be light." [laughter]
00:02:07.147 --> 00:02:08.114
[laughter] you can quote genesis 1
00:02:08.181 --> 00:02:09.549
You can quote genesis 1 over the power bill
00:02:09.616 --> 00:02:10.383
Over the power bill all you want in the dark.
00:02:10.450 --> 00:02:12.886
All you want in the dark. [laughter]
00:02:12.952 --> 00:02:14.821
[laughter] so, watch this response.
00:02:14.888 --> 00:02:18.758
So, watch this response. he doesn't rip up the letter,
00:02:18.825 --> 00:02:21.194
He doesn't rip up the letter, saying, "well, that's not true.
00:02:21.261 --> 00:02:22.762
Saying, "well, that's not true. you're not powerful.
00:02:22.829 --> 00:02:24.130
You're not powerful. you can't do that."
00:02:24.197 --> 00:02:24.697
You can't do that." yes, it is true.
00:02:24.764 --> 00:02:26.166
Yes, it is true. it is real.
00:02:26.232 --> 00:02:27.634
It is real. that's the reality
00:02:27.700 --> 00:02:28.301
That's the reality of the situation.
00:02:28.368 --> 00:02:30.336
Of the situation. the second thing that
00:02:30.403 --> 00:02:31.070
The second thing that i noticed that he didn't do --
00:02:31.137 --> 00:02:32.805
I noticed that he didn't do -- and i'm telling you what
00:02:32.872 --> 00:02:34.040
And i'm telling you what he didn't do,
00:02:34.107 --> 00:02:35.608
He didn't do, so that when i show
00:02:35.675 --> 00:02:36.242
So that when i show you what he did do,
00:02:36.309 --> 00:02:37.610
You what he did do, you will have something
00:02:37.677 --> 00:02:38.144
You will have something to compare it to.
00:02:38.211 --> 00:02:39.746
To compare it to. he received the letter,
00:02:39.812 --> 00:02:41.381
He received the letter, remember?
00:02:41.447 --> 00:02:41.981
Remember? "i'm gonna kill you.
00:02:42.048 --> 00:02:43.316
"i'm gonna kill you. i'm gonna kill you just
00:02:43.383 --> 00:02:44.184
I'm gonna kill you just like i killed everybody.
00:02:44.250 --> 00:02:45.552
Like i killed everybody. i'm gonna kill your family.
00:02:45.618 --> 00:02:47.086
I'm gonna kill your family. i'm gonna take your kids out.
00:02:47.153 --> 00:02:48.988
I'm gonna take your kids out. your kids are gonna
00:02:49.055 --> 00:02:49.789
Your kids are gonna end up on drugs.
00:02:49.856 --> 00:02:51.090
End up on drugs. your kids are gonna
00:02:51.157 --> 00:02:51.925
Your kids are gonna end up divorced.
00:02:51.991 --> 00:02:53.226
End up divorced. your kids are gonna
00:02:53.293 --> 00:02:53.993
Your kids are gonna end up worthless because you
00:02:54.060 --> 00:02:56.329
End up worthless because you yelled at them this morning."
00:02:56.396 --> 00:03:00.266
Yelled at them this morning." that's how it goes for me,
00:03:00.333 --> 00:03:01.401
That's how it goes for me, it spirals real quick.
00:03:01.467 --> 00:03:03.803
It spirals real quick. i would just be a little
00:03:03.870 --> 00:03:04.737
I would just be a little too harsh with the kids
00:03:04.804 --> 00:03:05.805
Too harsh with the kids and the devil would be like,
00:03:05.872 --> 00:03:06.806
And the devil would be like, "that's why you're gonna be
00:03:06.873 --> 00:03:08.074
"that's why you're gonna be bailing them out of jail.
00:03:08.141 --> 00:03:09.642
Bailing them out of jail. right there.
00:03:09.709 --> 00:03:10.276
Right there. they're gonna have a needle
00:03:10.343 --> 00:03:11.144
They're gonna have a needle in their arm right there,
00:03:11.211 --> 00:03:12.545
In their arm right there, and it all started with you."
00:03:12.612 --> 00:03:15.949
And it all started with you." it can spiral real quick.
00:03:16.015 --> 00:03:18.384
It can spiral real quick. now, so this is the second thing
00:03:18.451 --> 00:03:21.387
Now, so this is the second thing that hezekiah didn't do
00:03:21.454 --> 00:03:22.555
That hezekiah didn't do when he got the letter
00:03:22.622 --> 00:03:23.189
When he got the letter from sennacherib.
00:03:23.256 --> 00:03:24.224
From sennacherib. they're like, "hey, king,
00:03:24.290 --> 00:03:25.491
They're like, "hey, king, we don't know what to do.
00:03:25.558 --> 00:03:26.559
We don't know what to do. we can see you've already
00:03:26.626 --> 00:03:27.460
We can see you've already ripped your clothes.
00:03:27.527 --> 00:03:28.494
Ripped your clothes. it is a bad situation,
00:03:28.561 --> 00:03:29.729
It is a bad situation, but he sent another letter."
00:03:29.796 --> 00:03:31.064
But he sent another letter." so, he received the letter,"
00:03:31.130 --> 00:03:32.232
So, he received the letter," verse 14, again,
00:03:32.298 --> 00:03:34.934
Verse 14, again, "and he read it."
00:03:35.001 --> 00:03:37.003
"and he read it." watch this,
00:03:37.070 --> 00:03:39.272
Watch this, and he read it again,
00:03:39.339 --> 00:03:41.741
And he read it again, and read it again,
00:03:41.808 --> 00:03:43.876
And read it again, and read it again,
00:03:43.943 --> 00:03:45.912
And read it again, and read it over,
00:03:45.979 --> 00:03:47.347
And read it over, and over, and over,
00:03:47.413 --> 00:03:49.182
And over, and over, until he had memorized it.
00:03:49.249 --> 00:03:51.551
Until he had memorized it. and then, he gathered
00:03:51.618 --> 00:03:52.485
And then, he gathered the whole nation
00:03:52.552 --> 00:03:53.853
The whole nation and recited the letter
00:03:53.920 --> 00:03:56.155
And recited the letter for them that their
00:03:56.222 --> 00:03:57.156
For them that their enemy had written.
00:03:57.223 --> 00:03:58.791
Enemy had written. and then, he had it translated
00:03:58.858 --> 00:04:00.693
And then, he had it translated into 30 different languages,
00:04:00.760 --> 00:04:02.895
Into 30 different languages, so that everybody could
00:04:02.962 --> 00:04:04.264
So that everybody could hear in their own language,
00:04:04.330 --> 00:04:06.232
Hear in their own language, the threat of the enemy.
00:04:06.299 --> 00:04:07.834
The threat of the enemy. and then, he began to study it
00:04:07.900 --> 00:04:08.835
And then, he began to study it and he broke it down
00:04:08.901 --> 00:04:09.636
And he broke it down into different syllables,
00:04:09.702 --> 00:04:10.703
Into different syllables, and he made songs around it.
00:04:10.770 --> 00:04:12.572
And he made songs around it. and he began to sing
00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:14.107
And he began to sing the songs of sennacherib.
00:04:14.173 --> 00:04:15.541
The songs of sennacherib. [laughter]
00:04:15.608 --> 00:04:17.810
[laughter] that's not in the verse, is it?
00:04:17.877 --> 00:04:20.947
That's not in the verse, is it? i can't prove this,
00:04:21.014 --> 00:04:23.049
I can't prove this, but i think when it says --
00:04:23.116 --> 00:04:24.617
But i think when it says -- please put the verse back up.
00:04:24.684 --> 00:04:26.653
Please put the verse back up. "that he received the letter,
00:04:26.719 --> 00:04:29.789
"that he received the letter, and he read it,"
00:04:29.856 --> 00:04:32.058
And he read it," that he only read it once.
00:04:32.125 --> 00:04:36.329
That he only read it once. and after he read it once,
00:04:36.396 --> 00:04:39.032
And after he read it once, look what he did next,
00:04:39.098 --> 00:04:41.567
Look what he did next, "he read it and then he went up
00:04:41.634 --> 00:04:45.772
"he read it and then he went up to the temple of the lord."
00:04:45.838 --> 00:04:49.175
To the temple of the lord." you don't even know how anointed
00:04:49.242 --> 00:04:51.611
You don't even know how anointed that is what i just showed you.
00:04:51.678 --> 00:04:55.048
That is what i just showed you. that's what stopped me
00:04:55.114 --> 00:04:56.082
That's what stopped me in my tracks.
00:04:56.149 --> 00:04:57.183
In my tracks. when i read that verse,
00:04:57.250 --> 00:04:59.218
When i read that verse, i stopped and i said,
00:04:59.285 --> 00:05:01.321
I stopped and i said, "oh, that's my problem.
00:05:01.387 --> 00:05:04.924
"oh, that's my problem. when i get a letter from
00:05:04.991 --> 00:05:06.259
When i get a letter from the enemy, i read it over,
00:05:06.326 --> 00:05:11.064
The enemy, i read it over, and over, and over.
00:05:11.130 --> 00:05:13.566
And over, and over. when he puts a thought
00:05:13.633 --> 00:05:14.300
When he puts a thought in my head to draw me
00:05:14.367 --> 00:05:16.903
In my head to draw me away from home.
00:05:16.969 --> 00:05:18.137
Away from home. i play it over,
00:05:18.204 --> 00:05:20.073
I play it over, and over, and over.

And over, and over. when i have an experience

When i have an experience where i make a mistake,
00:05:22.709 --> 00:05:24.143
Where i make a mistake, i play it over,
00:05:24.210 --> 00:05:26.012
I play it over, and over and over.
00:05:26.079 --> 00:05:28.681
And over and over. but when i get
00:05:28.748 --> 00:05:29.182
But when i get a word from god,
00:05:29.248 --> 00:05:31.384
A word from god, i listen to it once
00:05:31.451 --> 00:05:32.618
I listen to it once and i go to lunch.
00:05:32.685 --> 00:05:33.920
And i go to lunch. [applause]

[applause] so, my problem is, watch this,

So, my problem is, watch this, i'm giving more attention
00:05:40.893 --> 00:05:42.795
I'm giving more attention to sennacherib's letter
00:05:42.862 --> 00:05:45.832
To sennacherib's letter than the spirit's
00:05:45.898 --> 00:05:47.333
Than the spirit's message in my life.
00:05:47.400 --> 00:05:49.435
Message in my life. [applause]
00:05:49.502 --> 00:05:54.774
[applause] so, he read it.
00:05:54.841 --> 00:05:56.776
So, he read it. somebody shout,
00:05:56.843 --> 00:05:57.510
Somebody shout, "he read it...
00:05:57.577 --> 00:05:58.378
"he read it... >> congregation: he read it.
00:05:58.444 --> 00:05:59.345
>> congregation: he read it. >> he dealt with it.
00:05:59.412 --> 00:06:00.179
>> he dealt with it. he faced it.
00:06:00.246 --> 00:06:00.680
He faced it. he accepted it
00:06:00.747 --> 00:06:01.381
He accepted it and he acknowledge it.
00:06:01.447 --> 00:06:02.849
And he acknowledge it. "i'm in debt.
00:06:02.915 --> 00:06:04.150
"i'm in debt. i'm overweight.
00:06:04.217 --> 00:06:05.218
I'm overweight. i'm stressed out.
00:06:05.284 --> 00:06:06.686
I'm stressed out. i'm busy.
00:06:06.753 --> 00:06:07.320
I'm busy. i'm torn apart right now.
00:06:07.387 --> 00:06:10.223
I'm torn apart right now. i'm not in the position
00:06:10.289 --> 00:06:11.391
I'm not in the position i need to be in to make
00:06:11.457 --> 00:06:12.825
I need to be in to make the difference in
00:06:12.892 --> 00:06:13.493
The difference in the life of my kids.
00:06:13.559 --> 00:06:14.660
The life of my kids. i'm not the example i wanna be.
00:06:14.727 --> 00:06:16.429
I'm not the example i wanna be. okay, i read it."
00:06:16.496 --> 00:06:18.765
Okay, i read it." but after he read it,
00:06:18.831 --> 00:06:21.501
But after he read it, he didn't stay down in it
00:06:21.567 --> 00:06:24.604
He didn't stay down in it 'cause if i stay down in it
00:06:24.670 --> 00:06:27.507
'cause if i stay down in it and memorize it, then
00:06:27.573 --> 00:06:29.075
And memorize it, then i'm gonna get more of it.
00:06:29.142 --> 00:06:30.910
I'm gonna get more of it. [applause]

And do what hezekiah did. what did he do?
00:06:40.653 --> 00:06:41.754
What did he do? "he read it,
00:06:41.821 --> 00:06:42.688
"he read it, and he went up."

To go up to the temple and see what the lord

And see what the lord says about this situation.
00:06:55.168 --> 00:06:57.170
Says about this situation. [applause]
00:06:57.236 --> 00:06:58.738
[applause] because if you stay

Because if you stay in your head, you're dead.
00:06:59.906 --> 00:07:03.109
In your head, you're dead. if you stay in your head
00:07:03.176 --> 00:07:04.610
If you stay in your head about this, you are gonna
00:07:04.677 --> 00:07:06.078
About this, you are gonna go through hell over this,
00:07:06.145 --> 00:07:09.215
Go through hell over this, and the enemy won't
00:07:09.282 --> 00:07:09.849
And the enemy won't even have to shoot
00:07:09.916 --> 00:07:10.550
Even have to shoot a single arrow because
00:07:10.616 --> 00:07:11.651
A single arrow because he will defeat you
00:07:11.717 --> 00:07:12.652
He will defeat you by getting in your head
00:07:12.718 --> 00:07:13.753
By getting in your head and causing you to forfeit
00:07:13.820 --> 00:07:15.121
And causing you to forfeit the very thing that you couldn't
00:07:15.188 --> 00:07:16.255
The very thing that you couldn't lose if you would stand firm
00:07:16.322 --> 00:07:18.558
Lose if you would stand firm and see what god has said.
00:07:18.624 --> 00:07:23.763
And see what god has said. [applause]
00:07:23.830 --> 00:07:24.764
[applause] "he went up.
00:07:24.831 --> 00:07:26.866
"he went up. he went up."
00:07:26.933 --> 00:07:27.433
He went up." say it, "he went up."
00:07:27.500 --> 00:07:28.468
Say it, "he went up." >> congregation: he went up.
00:07:28.534 --> 00:07:29.302
>> congregation: he went up. >> "he went up to the temple
00:07:29.368 --> 00:07:31.204
>> "he went up to the temple and he took the letter
00:07:31.270 --> 00:07:31.938
And he took the letter with him."
00:07:32.004 --> 00:07:32.839
With him." just like you came to
00:07:32.905 --> 00:07:33.906
Just like you came to elevation today and you
00:07:33.973 --> 00:07:35.508
Elevation today and you brought your letter with you.
00:07:35.575 --> 00:07:37.109
Brought your letter with you. oh yeah, you don't get
00:07:37.176 --> 00:07:38.244
Oh yeah, you don't get to leave it at home.
00:07:38.311 --> 00:07:39.879
To leave it at home. you take it with you
00:07:39.946 --> 00:07:40.580
You take it with you everywhere you go.
00:07:40.646 --> 00:07:42.315
Everywhere you go. it is tattooed on your heart.
00:07:42.381 --> 00:07:44.717
It is tattooed on your heart. the thing you really deal with,
00:07:44.784 --> 00:07:46.285
The thing you really deal with, the thing you really
00:07:46.352 --> 00:07:46.919
The thing you really worry about,
00:07:46.986 --> 00:07:47.920
Worry about, the thing you struggle with,
00:07:47.987 --> 00:07:49.188
The thing you struggle with, the insecurity that
00:07:49.255 --> 00:07:50.189
The insecurity that talks nasty to you.
00:07:50.256 --> 00:07:51.958
Talks nasty to you. i put in that detail
00:07:52.024 --> 00:07:52.892
I put in that detail about the excrement
00:07:52.959 --> 00:07:54.026
About the excrement and the urine,
00:07:54.093 --> 00:07:54.894
And the urine, because although you
00:07:54.961 --> 00:07:56.295
Because although you were grossed out about it,
00:07:56.362 --> 00:07:57.597
Were grossed out about it, one, i wanted to take
00:07:57.663 --> 00:07:58.764
One, i wanted to take your appetite down
00:07:58.831 --> 00:07:59.732
Your appetite down so you can sit through
00:07:59.799 --> 00:08:00.333
So you can sit through this sermon longer
00:08:00.399 --> 00:08:01.133
This sermon longer and not be hungry for lunch.
00:08:01.200 --> 00:08:02.168
And not be hungry for lunch. [laughter]
00:08:02.235 --> 00:08:02.835
[laughter] and number two, i wanted us
00:08:02.902 --> 00:08:04.136
And number two, i wanted us to think about the crap that
00:08:04.203 --> 00:08:05.938
To think about the crap that the devil really says to us.
00:08:06.005 --> 00:08:10.977
The devil really says to us. sennacherib literally talked
00:08:11.043 --> 00:08:12.445
Sennacherib literally talked crap to hezekiah, literally.
00:08:12.512 --> 00:08:17.083
Crap to hezekiah, literally. and i'm not using that word
00:08:17.149 --> 00:08:17.817
And i'm not using that word like people do when they
00:08:17.884 --> 00:08:18.618
Like people do when they use it to mean the exact
00:08:18.684 --> 00:08:19.418
Use it to mean the exact opposite of literally.
00:08:19.485 --> 00:08:20.786
Opposite of literally. "i literally died."
00:08:20.853 --> 00:08:22.321
"i literally died." [laughter]
00:08:22.388 --> 00:08:23.623
[laughter] figuratively.
00:08:23.689 --> 00:08:25.191
Figuratively. [laughter]
00:08:25.258 --> 00:08:26.092
[laughter] opposite word.
00:08:26.158 --> 00:08:27.326
Opposite word. [laughter and applause]
00:08:27.393 --> 00:08:31.330
[laughter and applause] just a little pet peeve.
00:08:31.397 --> 00:08:32.732
Just a little pet peeve. [laughter]
00:08:32.798 --> 00:08:37.069
[laughter] he tells you stuff
00:08:37.136 --> 00:08:39.405
He tells you stuff that you are trash,
00:08:39.472 --> 00:08:42.441
That you are trash, that you are done.
00:08:42.508 --> 00:08:44.310
That you are done. holy spirit won't
00:08:44.377 --> 00:08:44.911
Holy spirit won't do that to you.
00:08:44.977 --> 00:08:47.246
Do that to you. the holy spirit
00:08:47.313 --> 00:08:47.747
The holy spirit testifies of jesus.
00:08:47.813 --> 00:08:48.881
Testifies of jesus. jesus is righteous.
00:08:48.948 --> 00:08:49.815
Jesus is righteous. jesus is in you.
00:08:49.882 --> 00:08:53.286
Jesus is in you. the holy spirit will catch you
00:08:53.352 --> 00:08:54.554
The holy spirit will catch you the next morning and start
00:08:54.620 --> 00:08:55.555
The next morning and start talking to you about last night
00:08:55.621 --> 00:08:57.023
Talking to you about last night and how you wanna do
00:08:57.089 --> 00:08:57.623
And how you wanna do that different in the future.
00:08:57.690 --> 00:09:02.528
That different in the future. but he won't talk to you --
00:09:02.595 --> 00:09:03.429
But he won't talk to you -- the spirit won't talk to you
00:09:03.496 --> 00:09:04.196
The spirit won't talk to you like sennacherib will,
00:09:04.263 --> 00:09:05.131
Like sennacherib will, so that's not the spirit.
00:09:05.197 --> 00:09:07.867
So that's not the spirit. that's not the spirit.
00:09:07.934 --> 00:09:11.070
That's not the spirit. this gave me a picture
00:09:11.137 --> 00:09:13.706
This gave me a picture of what we so often do.
00:09:13.773 --> 00:09:16.008
Of what we so often do. if we don't just rip up
00:09:16.075 --> 00:09:17.276
If we don't just rip up the letter -- now,
00:09:17.343 --> 00:09:18.110
The letter -- now, i'm using that as a metaphor
00:09:18.177 --> 00:09:19.912
I'm using that as a metaphor to say if we don't just deny it
00:09:19.979 --> 00:09:22.648
To say if we don't just deny it or if we don't just go over it,
00:09:22.715 --> 00:09:24.517
Or if we don't just go over it, and over it again in our minds,
00:09:24.584 --> 00:09:28.688
And over it again in our minds, then often what we do
00:09:28.754 --> 00:09:30.222
Then often what we do is just we stuff it
00:09:30.289 --> 00:09:35.595
Is just we stuff it almost to the point
00:09:35.661 --> 00:09:37.563
Almost to the point where we don't even realize
00:09:37.630 --> 00:09:40.600
Where we don't even realize that the enemy is talking to us,
00:09:40.666 --> 00:09:43.736
That the enemy is talking to us, but he's using
00:09:43.803 --> 00:09:44.203
But he's using our voice to do it.
00:09:44.270 --> 00:09:47.840
Our voice to do it. so, we just stuff it, right?
00:09:47.907 --> 00:09:51.277
We just stuff it,
00:09:51.377 --> 00:09:53.079
We just stuff it, and we keep it rolled up
00:09:53.145 --> 00:09:54.013
And we keep it rolled up and scrunched up.
00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:56.716
And scrunched up. and so, if we take the things
00:09:56.782 --> 00:10:00.720
And so, if we take the things that the enemy speaks over
00:10:00.786 --> 00:10:02.855
That the enemy speaks over our lives and we stuff them,
00:10:02.922 --> 00:10:07.026
Then guess what happens?
00:10:07.126 --> 00:10:09.695
Then guess what happens? they spread inside of us
00:10:09.762 --> 00:10:14.400
They spread inside of us to the point where
00:10:14.467 --> 00:10:15.267
To the point where now it's not only,
00:10:15.334 --> 00:10:16.802
Now it's not only, "oh, i did that wrong."
00:10:16.869 --> 00:10:19.438
"oh, i did that wrong." it's, "there's something
00:10:19.505 --> 00:10:20.306
It's, "there's something wrong with me,
00:10:20.373 --> 00:10:22.541
Wrong with me, and there always has been,
00:10:22.608 --> 00:10:24.410
And there always has been, and there always will be."
00:10:24.477 --> 00:10:27.013
And there always will be." they say that the three
00:10:27.079 --> 00:10:28.948
They say that the three habits of negative thinking
00:10:29.015 --> 00:10:30.816
Habits of negative thinking are you make it personal,
00:10:30.883 --> 00:10:32.718
Are you make it personal, you make it permanent,
00:10:32.785 --> 00:10:33.719
You make it permanent, and you make it pervasive.
00:10:33.786 --> 00:10:35.888
And you make it pervasive. when you make it personal.
00:10:35.955 --> 00:10:37.356
When you make it personal. it's not, "i was wrong
00:10:37.423 --> 00:10:39.392
It's not, "i was wrong when i did that."
00:10:39.458 --> 00:10:40.226
When i did that." it's, "i am wrong,
00:10:40.292 --> 00:10:41.494
It's, "i am wrong, and i always do that,"
00:10:41.560 --> 00:10:42.461
And i always do that," which is permanent,
00:10:42.528 --> 00:10:43.963
Which is permanent, "i always -- that's how
00:10:44.030 --> 00:10:45.231
"i always -- that's how i've always done it.
00:10:45.297 --> 00:10:46.399
I've always done it. that's how i did it
00:10:46.465 --> 00:10:47.133
That's how i did it five years ago."
00:10:47.199 --> 00:10:48.200
Five years ago." and you've edited out
00:10:48.267 --> 00:10:49.301
And you've edited out all the times you got
00:10:49.368 --> 00:10:49.935
All the times you got it right because you just say,
00:10:50.002 --> 00:10:51.337
It right because you just say, "i always do it like that."
00:10:51.404 --> 00:10:54.340
"i always do it like that." and then pervasive, of course,
00:10:54.407 --> 00:10:55.875
And then pervasive, of course, is just a fancy word to say,
00:10:55.941 --> 00:10:56.742
Is just a fancy word to say, like, you make it everything.
00:10:56.809 --> 00:11:00.246
Like, you make it everything. "it's always like this
00:11:00.312 --> 00:11:01.480
"it's always like this and i'm always like that."
00:11:01.547 --> 00:11:04.917
And i'm always like that." when you take it and you
00:11:04.984 --> 00:11:06.018
When you take it and you put it inside like that
00:11:06.085 --> 00:11:08.888
Put it inside like that and you don't find a way
00:11:08.954 --> 00:11:10.656
And you don't find a way to process these patterns of
00:11:10.723 --> 00:11:13.526
To process these patterns of thinking, and these problems,
00:11:13.592 --> 00:11:14.994
Thinking, and these problems, and the sin that we all
00:11:15.061 --> 00:11:18.130
And the sin that we all still have to deal with,
00:11:18.197 --> 00:11:22.868
Still have to deal with, it starts to spread,
00:11:22.935 --> 00:11:25.337
It starts to spread, not only inside of your heart
00:11:25.404 --> 00:11:26.539
Not only inside of your heart but it starts to sabotage
00:11:26.605 --> 00:11:28.274
But it starts to sabotage the decisions in your life.
00:11:28.340 --> 00:11:31.343
The decisions in your life. and you find yourself losing
00:11:31.410 --> 00:11:32.745
And you find yourself losing good people who are trying
00:11:32.812 --> 00:11:34.480
Good people who are trying to love you, because of
00:11:34.547 --> 00:11:37.883
To love you, because of an insecurity that was in
00:11:37.950 --> 00:11:40.019
An insecurity that was in the form of the letter that
00:11:40.086 --> 00:11:41.320
The form of the letter that the enemy sent you that you
00:11:41.387 --> 00:11:43.856
The enemy sent you that you didn't know what to do with,
00:11:43.923 --> 00:11:46.425
Didn't know what to do with, so you stuffed it and it spread.
00:11:46.492 --> 00:11:51.330
So you stuffed it and it spread. and if nothing is there
00:11:51.397 --> 00:11:52.431
And if nothing is there to stop the spread of that,
00:11:52.498 --> 00:11:54.200
To stop the spread of that, you will continue to change
00:11:54.266 --> 00:11:55.468
You will continue to change external things in your life.
00:11:55.534 --> 00:11:59.105
External things in your life. but everything that you touch
00:11:59.171 --> 00:12:01.006
But everything that you touch while you were walking
00:12:01.073 --> 00:12:01.774
While you were walking in that insecurity,
00:12:01.841 --> 00:12:03.976
In that insecurity, the insecurity will spread
00:12:04.043 --> 00:12:08.247
The insecurity will spread to the next opportunity.
00:12:08.314 --> 00:12:11.016
To the next opportunity. so, you'll spend ten months
00:12:11.083 --> 00:12:12.251
So, you'll spend ten months happy at a job until
00:12:12.318 --> 00:12:13.786
Happy at a job until the old system of how
00:12:13.853 --> 00:12:15.121
The old system of how you show up for the job catches
00:12:15.187 --> 00:12:16.722
You show up for the job catches up with you at the new one.
00:12:16.789 --> 00:12:20.893
Up with you at the new one. and it spreads until your
00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:23.796
And it spreads until your children see that mom and dad
00:12:23.863 --> 00:12:26.699
Children see that mom and dad can't have a healthy conflict
00:12:26.766 --> 00:12:28.601
Can't have a healthy conflict and work through it.
00:12:28.667 --> 00:12:29.869
And work through it. and they carry a template
00:12:29.935 --> 00:12:31.203
And they carry a template with them into their marriage
00:12:31.270 --> 00:12:32.471
With them into their marriage one day, and you spend years,
00:12:32.538 --> 00:12:34.840
One day, and you spend years, and years, of your life saying,
00:12:34.907 --> 00:12:36.308
And years, of your life saying, "i wish that i had known
00:12:36.375 --> 00:12:39.612
"i wish that i had known how to deal with this
00:12:39.678 --> 00:12:41.347
How to deal with this because the last thing
00:12:41.413 --> 00:12:42.414
Because the last thing i wanted to do
00:12:42.481 --> 00:12:44.116
I wanted to do was to pass this on to them."
00:12:44.183 --> 00:12:48.387
Was to pass this on to them." when we stuff it
00:12:48.454 --> 00:12:50.189
When we stuff it and we hallelujah
00:12:50.256 --> 00:12:50.823
And we hallelujah over the top of it,
00:12:50.890 --> 00:12:54.794
Over the top of it, and we get little scripture
00:12:54.860 --> 00:12:55.795
And we get little scripture verses that we quote thinking
00:12:55.861 --> 00:12:58.464
Verses that we quote thinking that they will counteract
00:12:58.531 --> 00:13:00.366
That they will counteract the pattern of our own
00:13:00.432 --> 00:13:01.634
The pattern of our own meditation in our heart,
00:13:01.700 --> 00:13:03.836
Meditation in our heart, but it doesn't.
00:13:03.903 --> 00:13:05.304
But it doesn't. because if we stuff it,
00:13:05.371 --> 00:13:07.573
Because if we stuff it, it spreads.
00:13:07.640 --> 00:13:09.675
It spreads. but who do i tell?
00:13:09.742 --> 00:13:12.211
But who do i tell? who do i tell what
00:13:12.278 --> 00:13:14.013
I really feel inside?
00:13:14.113 --> 00:13:16.515
I really feel inside? and this is an important thing
00:13:16.582 --> 00:13:17.650
And this is an important thing for me to stop and say right now
00:13:17.716 --> 00:13:20.386
For me to stop and say right now because you can't just take that
00:13:20.452 --> 00:13:23.222
Because you can't just take that stuff and spread it anywhere.
00:13:23.289 --> 00:13:27.927
You can't just use
00:13:28.027 --> 00:13:28.694
You can't just use other people like they
00:13:28.761 --> 00:13:31.030
Other people like they are your dumping ground,
00:13:31.096 --> 00:13:33.933
Are your dumping ground, like they've got
00:13:33.999 --> 00:13:34.433
Like they've got a hazmat suit on them.
00:13:34.500 --> 00:13:35.501
A hazmat suit on them. they can just handle
00:13:35.568 --> 00:13:36.202
They can just handle whatever you wanna say.
00:13:36.268 --> 00:13:38.604
Whatever you wanna say. and what encouraged me
00:13:38.671 --> 00:13:39.705
And what encouraged me about hezekiah was,
00:13:39.772 --> 00:13:41.307
About hezekiah was, he couldn't tell anybody
00:13:41.373 --> 00:13:42.708
He couldn't tell anybody 'cause he's the king.
00:13:42.775 --> 00:13:45.477
'cause he's the king. are there any dads in here
00:13:45.544 --> 00:13:48.280
Are there any dads in here that you just wished for once,
00:13:48.347 --> 00:13:51.550
That you just wished for once, for once, and i'mma get to
00:13:51.617 --> 00:13:53.085
For once, and i'mma get to the moms in a minute,
00:13:53.152 --> 00:13:54.486
The moms in a minute, for once your kids would
00:13:54.553 --> 00:13:56.722
For once your kids would be like, "it must be
00:13:56.789 --> 00:13:58.190
Be like, "it must be so hard to be you.
00:13:58.257 --> 00:14:02.728
So hard to be you. it is amazing what you
00:14:02.795 --> 00:14:04.196
It is amazing what you carry for our family.
00:14:04.263 --> 00:14:06.465
Carry for our family. it is amazing.
00:14:06.532 --> 00:14:08.000
It is amazing. you bring home the bacon,
00:14:08.067 --> 00:14:09.635
You bring home the bacon, and you taught me
00:14:09.702 --> 00:14:10.336
And you taught me to throw a baseball.
00:14:10.402 --> 00:14:12.371
To throw a baseball. you're my hero, dad.
00:14:12.438 --> 00:14:14.106
You're my hero, dad. how do you do it all?"
00:14:14.173 --> 00:14:16.842
How do you do it all?" but who do you tell
00:14:16.909 --> 00:14:19.044
But who do you tell when you're trying to seem
00:14:19.111 --> 00:14:20.579
When you're trying to seem strong that this strength
00:14:20.646 --> 00:14:22.248
Strong that this strength that you see is costing me
00:14:22.314 --> 00:14:27.853
That you see is costing me my own strength and i've got
00:14:27.920 --> 00:14:30.489
My own strength and i've got my own issues, and i still feel
00:14:30.556 --> 00:14:33.826
My own issues, and i still feel like a 13-year-old sometimes?
00:14:33.893 --> 00:14:37.363
Like a 13-year-old sometimes? i yelled at elijah one time.
00:14:37.429 --> 00:14:38.998
I yelled at elijah one time. he is my oldest,
00:14:39.064 --> 00:14:39.598
He is my oldest, so i have him a separate
00:14:39.665 --> 00:14:40.733
So i have him a separate therapy fund for all
00:14:40.799 --> 00:14:41.634
Therapy fund for all the mistakes i make on him
00:14:41.700 --> 00:14:42.701
The mistakes i make on him that i learned and then don't
00:14:42.768 --> 00:14:43.636
That i learned and then don't do it with the other kids.
00:14:43.702 --> 00:14:44.870
Do it with the other kids. so, i saved that with
00:14:44.937 --> 00:14:45.571
So, i saved that with the college fund.
00:14:45.638 --> 00:14:46.372
The college fund. therapy fund, college fund.
00:14:46.438 --> 00:14:47.373
Therapy fund, college fund. i'm doing both at the same time.
00:14:47.439 --> 00:14:49.642
I'm doing both at the same time. and i just yelled at him,
00:14:49.708 --> 00:14:50.943
And i just yelled at him, "this is my first time too."
00:14:51.010 --> 00:14:54.680
"this is my first time too." what was i talking about?
00:14:54.747 --> 00:14:56.515
What was i talking about? is your first time
00:14:56.582 --> 00:14:57.216
Is your first time being a teenager.
00:14:57.283 --> 00:14:58.550
Being a teenager. it's my first time
00:14:58.617 --> 00:14:59.618
It's my first time raising one.
00:14:59.685 --> 00:15:02.321
Raising one. and now i'm confronting

Therapist i'm sorry. [laughter]

[laughter] so, what's hard about this
00:15:21.273 --> 00:15:25.077
So, what's hard about this is that i know what my letter
00:15:25.144 --> 00:15:27.579
Is that i know what my letter says, but i don't know
00:15:27.646 --> 00:15:30.349
Says, but i don't know where to share it.
00:15:30.416 --> 00:15:34.286
Where to share it. do i share it with my e-group,
00:15:34.353 --> 00:15:37.256
Do i share it with my e-group, or would they kick me out,
00:15:37.323 --> 00:15:40.092
Or would they kick me out, or would they look
00:15:40.159 --> 00:15:40.626
Or would they look at me different?
00:15:40.693 --> 00:15:41.994
At me different? [laughter]
00:15:42.061 --> 00:15:43.128
[laughter] do i share it with my wife,
00:15:43.195 --> 00:15:44.163
Do i share it with my wife, or will she think i'm weak?
00:15:44.229 --> 00:15:48.834
Or will she think i'm weak? do i just...
00:15:48.901 --> 00:15:51.403
Do i just... take it to the lord
00:15:51.470 --> 00:15:54.540
Take it to the lord in prayer?
00:15:54.606 --> 00:15:56.442
In prayer? [laughter]
00:15:56.508 --> 00:15:57.776
[laughter] 'cause honestly,
00:15:57.843 --> 00:15:59.278
'cause honestly, right now, i don't know

If he's really up there. i love the moment
00:16:05.184 --> 00:16:06.518
I love the moment where y'all act like
00:16:06.585 --> 00:16:07.886
Where y'all act like y'all don't know what
00:16:07.953 --> 00:16:08.387
Y'all don't know what i'm talking about when
00:16:08.454 --> 00:16:09.188
I'm talking about when i say stuff in church.
00:16:09.254 --> 00:16:10.356
I say stuff in church. [laughter]
00:16:10.422 --> 00:16:11.423
[laughter] "no, he's always there,
00:16:11.490 --> 00:16:12.391
"no, he's always there, steve, always for me,
00:16:12.458 --> 00:16:14.059
Steve, always for me, he's there."
00:16:14.126 --> 00:16:15.494
He's there." [laughter]
00:16:15.561 --> 00:16:20.733
[applause]
00:16:20.833 --> 00:16:24.803
[applause] sometimes for me,
00:16:24.870 --> 00:16:25.838
Sometimes for me, i don't know what that means to
00:16:25.904 --> 00:16:26.772
I don't know what that means to take it to the lord in prayer.
00:16:26.839 --> 00:16:30.843
Take it to the lord in prayer. i don't know what that means.
00:16:30.909 --> 00:16:32.411
I don't know what that means. well, hezekiah gives us a way
00:16:32.478 --> 00:16:36.315
Well, hezekiah gives us a way to go to god that i really
00:16:36.382 --> 00:16:40.185
To go to god that i really think is going to help you
00:16:40.252 --> 00:16:41.453
Think is going to help you with the letter that
00:16:41.520 --> 00:16:42.054
With the letter that you carried in here today,
00:16:42.121 --> 00:16:43.322
You carried in here today, whether it's condemnation,
00:16:43.389 --> 00:16:44.523
Whether it's condemnation, temptation,
00:16:44.590 --> 00:16:47.126
Temptation, whether it's an insecurity,
00:16:47.192 --> 00:16:49.728
Whether it's an insecurity, or whether it's an actual
00:16:49.795 --> 00:16:50.863
Or whether it's an actual attack from the enemy that's
00:16:50.929 --> 00:16:51.964
Attack from the enemy that's happening in your life right
00:16:52.031 --> 00:16:52.998
Happening in your life right now that only you know about.
00:16:53.065 --> 00:16:56.368
Now that only you know about. this would apply to any
00:16:56.435 --> 00:16:57.136
This would apply to any addiction you're dealing with,
00:16:57.202 --> 00:16:58.170
Addiction you're dealing with, any problem that you have today.
00:16:58.237 --> 00:17:00.572
Any problem that you have today. watch what hezekiah did.
00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:02.441
Watch what hezekiah did. "he received the letter
00:17:02.508 --> 00:17:04.009
"he received the letter from the messengers and read it,
00:17:04.076 --> 00:17:07.146
From the messengers and read it, and then he went up to
00:17:07.212 --> 00:17:09.314
And then he went up to the temple of the lord,
00:17:09.381 --> 00:17:12.851
The temple of the lord, and he spread it out
00:17:12.918 --> 00:17:16.588
And he spread it out before the lord.
00:17:16.655 --> 00:17:19.191
Before the lord. he spread it out
00:17:19.258 --> 00:17:21.326
He spread it out before the lord."
00:17:21.393 --> 00:17:22.694
Before the lord." physically he did that.
00:17:22.761 --> 00:17:24.463
Physically he did that. he took the scroll.
00:17:24.530 --> 00:17:26.865
He took the scroll. i like to know.
00:17:26.932 --> 00:17:28.967
I like to know. this will be the scroll,
00:17:29.034 --> 00:17:31.136
This will be the scroll, "and he spread it out
00:17:31.203 --> 00:17:34.873
"and he spread it out before the lord."
00:17:34.940 --> 00:17:39.378
Before the lord." because if he carries it
00:17:39.445 --> 00:17:40.079
Because if he carries it inside of himself,
00:17:40.145 --> 00:17:41.013
Inside of himself, if he stays in his head,
00:17:41.080 --> 00:17:43.482
If he stays in his head, he doesn't know what to do.
00:17:43.549 --> 00:17:46.118
He doesn't know what to do. but he really doesn't
00:17:46.185 --> 00:17:46.652
But he really doesn't know what to say either.
00:17:46.718 --> 00:17:49.154
Know what to say either. so, "he spreads it out."
00:17:49.221 --> 00:17:51.290
So, "he spreads it out." somebody say, "spread it out."
00:17:51.356 --> 00:17:52.424
Somebody say, "spread it out." >> congregation: spread
00:17:52.491 --> 00:17:52.958
>> congregation: spread it out...
00:17:53.025 --> 00:17:54.059
It out... >> before the lord."
00:17:54.126 --> 00:17:54.860
>> before the lord." >> congregation: before
00:17:54.927 --> 00:17:55.427
>> congregation: before the lord.
00:17:55.494 --> 00:17:56.028
The lord. >> both of those
00:17:56.095 --> 00:17:56.562
>> both of those are so important.
00:17:56.628 --> 00:17:58.697
Are so important. one tells me what he did,
00:17:58.764 --> 00:18:01.066
One tells me what he did, and one tells me
00:18:01.133 --> 00:18:01.767
And one tells me where he did it,
00:18:01.834 --> 00:18:03.669
Where he did it, and both are important.
00:18:03.735 --> 00:18:05.704
And both are important. the first thing he did
00:18:05.771 --> 00:18:06.438
The first thing he did was he spread it out.
00:18:06.505 --> 00:18:09.441
Was he spread it out. he's like, "god,
00:18:09.508 --> 00:18:10.609
He's like, "god, i'm not gonna read this over,
00:18:10.676 --> 00:18:11.810
I'm not gonna read this over, and over, and over again,
00:18:11.877 --> 00:18:12.678
And over, and over again, and imagine all the horrible
00:18:12.744 --> 00:18:13.679
And imagine all the horrible things that can happen,
00:18:13.745 --> 00:18:14.947
Things that can happen, here, here."
00:18:15.013 --> 00:18:19.017
Here, here." and you need a space
00:18:19.084 --> 00:18:19.918
And you need a space in your life for this season
00:18:19.985 --> 00:18:21.587
In your life for this season that you're in, for these
00:18:21.653 --> 00:18:22.588
That you're in, for these challenges that you're facing
00:18:22.654 --> 00:18:23.622
Challenges that you're facing that you've never faced before,
00:18:23.689 --> 00:18:25.891
That you've never faced before, for these sennacheribs
00:18:25.958 --> 00:18:26.725
For these sennacheribs that are going on inside of
00:18:26.792 --> 00:18:28.527
That are going on inside of your psychological state,
00:18:28.594 --> 00:18:29.561
Your psychological state, because i think this is
00:18:29.628 --> 00:18:30.262
Because i think this is a mental battle more
00:18:30.329 --> 00:18:31.263
A mental battle more that it's anything.
00:18:31.330 --> 00:18:33.132
That it's anything. you need a space to be able to
00:18:33.198 --> 00:18:35.534
You need a space to be able to spread it out before the lord.
00:18:35.601 --> 00:18:38.237
Spread it out before the lord. and often we don't,
00:18:38.303 --> 00:18:40.439
And often we don't, because when anxiety
00:18:40.506 --> 00:18:41.974
Because when anxiety comes on us,
00:18:42.040 --> 00:18:43.609
Comes on us, it has a way of
00:18:43.675 --> 00:18:44.710
It has a way of pushing us back down,
00:18:44.776 --> 00:18:47.513
Pushing us back down, so we can't even sit
00:18:47.579 --> 00:18:48.981
So we can't even sit with anything very long
00:18:49.047 --> 00:18:51.183
With anything very long without sinking into it.
00:18:51.250 --> 00:18:54.086
Without sinking into it. to spread out something
00:18:54.153 --> 00:18:55.320
To spread out something before the lord means
00:18:55.387 --> 00:18:57.089
Before the lord means that you can sit with him
00:18:57.156 --> 00:18:59.124
That you can sit with him in an uncomfortable feeling,
00:18:59.191 --> 00:19:01.960
In an uncomfortable feeling, that you can sit with him
00:19:02.027 --> 00:19:03.929
That you can sit with him even as the temptation
00:19:03.996 --> 00:19:05.297
Even as the temptation is coming like a wave.
00:19:05.364 --> 00:19:07.266
Is coming like a wave. that you can sit with him,
00:19:07.332 --> 00:19:08.700
That you can sit with him, and some of us have been
00:19:08.767 --> 00:19:09.768
And some of us have been convinced by the enemy that you
00:19:09.835 --> 00:19:12.037
Convinced by the enemy that you can't sit with what you feel.
00:19:12.104 --> 00:19:14.740
Can't sit with what you feel. so, anytime you feel
00:19:14.806 --> 00:19:15.974
So, anytime you feel something uncomfortable,
00:19:16.041 --> 00:19:17.643
Something uncomfortable, you just run from that,
00:19:17.709 --> 00:19:19.545
You just run from that, you just strip some more
00:19:19.611 --> 00:19:20.946
You just strip some more gold off the temple and say,
00:19:21.013 --> 00:19:23.482
Gold off the temple and say, "here sennacherib,
00:19:23.549 --> 00:19:24.850
"here sennacherib, i don't like this feeling
00:19:24.917 --> 00:19:26.351
I don't like this feeling of being attacked,
00:19:26.418 --> 00:19:27.619
Of being attacked, so i'll just do it
00:19:27.686 --> 00:19:28.587
So i'll just do it the enemy's way.
00:19:28.654 --> 00:19:30.022
The enemy's way. that's what a lot
00:19:30.088 --> 00:19:30.789
That's what a lot of addiction is,
00:19:30.856 --> 00:19:32.357
Of addiction is, whether that addiction is
00:19:32.424 --> 00:19:33.458
Whether that addiction is to thinking, pills,
00:19:33.525 --> 00:19:35.594
To thinking, pills, food, you name it.
00:19:35.661 --> 00:19:37.362
Food, you name it. any of our addictions
00:19:37.429 --> 00:19:38.497
Any of our addictions are often traced to something
00:19:38.564 --> 00:19:40.599
Are often traced to something that we will not sit in,
00:19:40.666 --> 00:19:42.868
That we will not sit in, "because i don't like
00:19:42.935 --> 00:19:44.069
"because i don't like how this feels,
00:19:44.136 --> 00:19:45.470
How this feels, so i'll just give
00:19:45.537 --> 00:19:46.338
So i'll just give the devil my gold.
00:19:46.405 --> 00:19:47.873
The devil my gold. i'll just give
00:19:47.940 --> 00:19:48.473
I'll just give the devil my peace.
00:19:48.540 --> 00:19:50.209
The devil my peace. i'll even give him
00:19:50.275 --> 00:19:50.976
I'll even give him my whole family
00:19:51.043 --> 00:19:52.077
My whole family if you will just stop
00:19:52.144 --> 00:19:53.679
If you will just stop making me feel this way."
00:19:53.745 --> 00:19:56.782
Making me feel this way." we do not resist him because
00:19:56.848 --> 00:19:58.317
We do not resist him because somewhere along the line,
00:19:58.383 --> 00:20:00.085
Somewhere along the line, you have bought the lie
00:20:00.152 --> 00:20:02.054
You have bought the lie that this is bigger than you.
00:20:02.120 --> 00:20:04.122
That this is bigger than you. well, it might be,
00:20:04.189 --> 00:20:05.591
Well, it might be, but guess what i know
00:20:05.657 --> 00:20:06.692

When he starts telling you there's no way out of this one,
00:23:07.572 --> 00:23:10.442
There's no way out of this one, that's because you didn't take
