- 00:00:00.050 --> 00:00:08.091
- ♪♪
- 00:00:08.324 --> 00:00:17.267
- Hey, family, it's pastor tim timberlake,
- 00:00:17.267 --> 00:00:19.235
- A celebration church right here in jacksonville, florida.
- 00:00:19.235 --> 00:00:22.372
- And i'm so grateful we get this opportunity
- 00:00:22.372 --> 00:00:24.374
- To share this moment in time together around the word of god.
- 00:00:24.374 --> 00:00:27.911
- I want us to go to john chapter
- 00:00:27.911 --> 00:00:29.245
- Four today as we find our message.
- 00:00:29.245 --> 00:00:31.247
- Leave it at the well.
- 00:00:31.247 --> 00:00:34.350
- Jesus crossed these scandalous barriers
- 00:00:34.350 --> 00:00:38.388
- And has a conversation with the samaritan woman
- 00:00:38.388 --> 00:00:41.624
- Demonstrating to us that racial,
- 00:00:41.624 --> 00:00:45.195
- Equality, gender, religion,
- 00:00:45.195 --> 00:00:47.897
- Moral lines are not confining lines to jesus.
- 00:00:47.897 --> 00:00:51.468
- Jesus has the ability, the power and the wisdom to cross
- 00:00:51.468 --> 00:00:55.772
- All of these limitations that we say that he should not.
- 00:00:55.772 --> 00:01:00.043
- And oftentimes, we have this narrative
- 00:01:00.043 --> 00:01:03.179
- That jesus hung with sinners and jesus set with sinners.
- 00:01:03.179 --> 00:01:07.283
- And i would argue that sinners hung with jesus and sinners
- 00:01:07.283 --> 00:01:11.354
- Set with jesus.
- 00:01:11.354 --> 00:01:12.489
- And so jesus was very intentional
- 00:01:12.489 --> 00:01:14.657
- With his time
- 00:01:14.657 --> 00:01:15.625
- Because he understood that his time
- 00:01:15.625 --> 00:01:17.794
- Here on earth would be short.
- 00:01:17.794 --> 00:01:19.395
- So the way that he delegated and steward his time was
- 00:01:19.395 --> 00:01:23.066
- By priority of what god wanted to do here in the earth.
- 00:01:23.066 --> 00:01:27.137
- So when we read this passage in john chapter four,
- 00:01:27.137 --> 00:01:29.906
- This is not just jesus stopping by.
- 00:01:29.906 --> 00:01:32.442
- This is not just jesus dropping by.
- 00:01:32.442 --> 00:01:34.577
- This is jesus going out of his way for us to view in the text.
- 00:01:34.577 --> 00:01:38.414
- He's trying to prove a point.
- 00:01:38.414 --> 00:01:41.217
- He's trying to demonstrate to us that there is nothing
- 00:01:41.217 --> 00:01:44.521
- And no one too far out of my reach.
- 00:01:44.521 --> 00:01:47.991
- He desires for us to know that our past does not
- 00:01:47.991 --> 00:01:51.194
- Disqualify us from our future.
- 00:01:51.194 --> 00:01:53.296
- He desires for us to know
- 00:01:53.296 --> 00:01:54.764
- That we are not the things that we have done,
- 00:01:54.764 --> 00:01:57.267
- And he does not avoid what we have done,
- 00:01:57.267 --> 00:01:59.702
- But he always calls us higher so that we could see our dire
- 00:01:59.702 --> 00:02:03.373
- Need for him in today and in our tomorrow.
- 00:02:03.373 --> 00:02:06.676
- So he sits down
- 00:02:06.676 --> 00:02:08.111
- With the samaritan woman and he has a conversation with her.
- 00:02:08.111 --> 00:02:11.214
- He doesn't give her religious rhetoric.
- 00:02:11.214 --> 00:02:13.049
- He doesn't tell her all of the law.
- 00:02:13.049 --> 00:02:15.051
- He doesn't break down all of the things that she's done.
- 00:02:15.051 --> 00:02:17.887
- He does identify something in her life, however,
- 00:02:17.887 --> 00:02:21.457
- To allow her to know
- 00:02:21.457 --> 00:02:22.992
- He is not merely just another rabbi or a prophet.
- 00:02:22.992 --> 00:02:26.896
- He is much greater than that.
- 00:02:26.896 --> 00:02:28.498
- He is the messiah.
- 00:02:28.498 --> 00:02:29.899
- So he begins to detail
- 00:02:29.899 --> 00:02:31.534
- Things in her life that no one else would know but her.
- 00:02:31.534 --> 00:02:34.404
- And so he tells her, go get your husband.
- 00:02:34.404 --> 00:02:36.839
- And she says, well, i'm not married. he says, i know.
- 00:02:36.839 --> 00:02:40.710
- Have you ever found it that when god is talking to you,
- 00:02:41.744 --> 00:02:44.914
- He'll ask you a question and it confuses you
- 00:02:44.914 --> 00:02:47.483
- Because you think he actually wants to know the answer?
- 00:02:47.483 --> 00:02:51.287
- He doesn't want to know the answer.
- 00:02:52.055 --> 00:02:53.723
- He is the answer.
- 00:02:53.723 --> 00:02:54.958
- He just wants you to identify that the answer
- 00:02:54.958 --> 00:02:57.493
- And the conclusion you have come to is wrong.
- 00:02:57.493 --> 00:02:59.996
- If it's separate from him.
- 00:02:59.996 --> 00:03:03.766
- He tells her
- 00:03:04.100 --> 00:03:06.102
- You've been married five times.
- 00:03:06.102 --> 00:03:07.270
- Girl.
- 00:03:07.270 --> 00:03:09.372
- And the one you with now
- 00:03:09.372 --> 00:03:11.174
- He ain't the right one.
- 00:03:11.174 --> 00:03:14.844
- And she says you must be a prophet.
- 00:03:14.844 --> 00:03:18.181
- He says, woman, if you only knew who you were talking to,
- 00:03:18.181 --> 00:03:20.183
- You would know that i'm far greater than a prophet.
- 00:03:20.183 --> 00:03:24.020
- I am he,
- 00:03:24.287 --> 00:03:26.623
- I am him.
- 00:03:26.623 --> 00:03:28.558
- I am the one who was the one who is, and the one who
- 00:03:28.558 --> 00:03:31.394
- Is to come.
- 00:03:31.394 --> 00:03:32.762
- I am what you need, and you
- 00:03:33.363 --> 00:03:34.731
- Will never find fulfillment in this
- 00:03:34.731 --> 00:03:36.633
- Well,
- 00:03:36.633 --> 00:03:38.668
- Because you'll only find fulfillment in me.
- 00:03:38.668 --> 00:03:41.571
- And if you take notes, and i encourage you to,
- 00:03:41.571 --> 00:03:45.808
- The first point that we'll cover today is this way
- 00:03:46.809 --> 00:03:50.013
- Temporary fixes will never heal
- 00:03:50.680 --> 00:03:54.217
- Eternal thirst.
- 00:03:54.617 --> 00:03:58.221
- Jesus meets the woman at the well,
- 00:03:58.988 --> 00:04:02.258
- But what he offers is not water.
- 00:04:02.258 --> 00:04:05.828
- What he offers, it's wholeness.
- 00:04:05.828 --> 00:04:10.333
- Temporary fixes will never heal.
- 00:04:10.967 --> 00:04:14.203
- Eternal thirst.
- 00:04:14.203 --> 00:04:16.706
- And there's some of us that have been looking for
- 00:04:16.706 --> 00:04:19.275
- Eternity in what is temporal.
- 00:04:19.275 --> 00:04:22.912
- And so we try to find our identity in relationships.
- 00:04:22.912 --> 00:04:25.381
- God never intended for us to be in.
- 00:04:25.381 --> 00:04:28.217
- You all so quiet right now.
- 00:04:28.217 --> 00:04:31.888
- We try to find our identity in jobs,
- 00:04:31.888 --> 00:04:33.990
- And we try to find our identity in social media.
- 00:04:33.990 --> 00:04:36.225
- We try to find our identity
- 00:04:36.225 --> 00:04:37.894
- In the various things, and the only way
- 00:04:37.894 --> 00:04:39.796
- You will discover who you actually are
- 00:04:39.796 --> 00:04:41.798
- Is if you find your identity in jesus christ.
- 00:04:41.798 --> 00:04:44.367
- And so temporary fixes will never heal eternal things.
- 00:04:44.367 --> 00:04:48.805
- And the reason you find yourself empty right now
- 00:04:48.805 --> 00:04:53.076
- Is because you've been trying
- 00:04:53.076 --> 00:04:54.310
- To fill yourself with temporal things
- 00:04:54.310 --> 00:04:57.246
- Instead of the true and living savior.
- 00:04:57.246 --> 00:05:04.153
- Never find
- 00:05:04.454 --> 00:05:06.656
- Your god given spouse
- 00:05:06.656 --> 00:05:09.125
- By posting thirst traps.
- 00:05:09.125 --> 00:05:18.034
- Y'all nervous
- 00:05:18.401 --> 00:05:19.168
- Clapping and it's okay.
- 00:05:19.168 --> 00:05:23.573
- Because you've been told
- 00:05:24.107 --> 00:05:25.208
- You have to present yourself a certain kind of way
- 00:05:25.208 --> 00:05:27.143
- To attract the person that you want to.
- 00:05:27.143 --> 00:05:29.178
- And i'm just telling you,
- 00:05:29.178 --> 00:05:30.113
- You will never find eternal fulfillment
- 00:05:30.113 --> 00:05:33.783
- And temporary fixes.
- 00:05:34.250 --> 00:05:37.954
- Hear me
- 00:05:38.187 --> 00:05:40.623
- Family.
- 00:05:40.623 --> 00:05:42.692
- She found herself sitting at the well,
- 00:05:42.692 --> 00:05:46.095
- But the true and living savior
- 00:05:46.095 --> 00:05:48.731
- Asking the right questions
- 00:05:48.731 --> 00:05:51.434
- And the right season.
- 00:05:51.434 --> 00:05:53.469
- And jesus provided the right answers.
- 00:05:53.469 --> 00:05:56.506
- When i read this text,
- 00:05:56.973 --> 00:05:59.008
- And when i see jesus identify
- 00:05:59.008 --> 00:06:01.811
- An area in her life
- 00:06:01.811 --> 00:06:04.714
- That could have brought shame.
- 00:06:04.714 --> 00:06:07.350
- Jesus demonstrates and models for us
- 00:06:07.350 --> 00:06:10.987
- What correction with love looks like.
- 00:06:10.987 --> 00:06:14.590
- He doesn't condemn.
- 00:06:15.057 --> 00:06:16.092
- He doesn't call out, i know you folks husband.
- 00:06:16.092 --> 00:06:18.060
- I know jerry, you know.
- 00:06:18.060 --> 00:06:23.032
- Jerry was a wild boy, wasn't he?
- 00:06:23.666 --> 00:06:25.067
- Yeah, i know, i know.
- 00:06:25.067 --> 00:06:28.070
- Lionel was second.
- 00:06:28.070 --> 00:06:31.908
- He doesn't go down
- 00:06:32.341 --> 00:06:33.075
- The list of her past.
- 00:06:33.075 --> 00:06:36.279
- He gives her enough information to allow her to know
- 00:06:36.279 --> 00:06:39.615
- She's not just talking to any other man.
- 00:06:39.615 --> 00:06:42.852
- Is it possible the reason gave her
- 00:06:43.586 --> 00:06:46.222
- This information is to allow her to know that
- 00:06:46.222 --> 00:06:50.693
- What she had been looking for in affirmation from other men
- 00:06:50.693 --> 00:06:54.630
- In the six previous relationships that she was in,
- 00:06:55.631 --> 00:06:59.702
- That she could only find in one man,
- 00:07:00.503 --> 00:07:03.739
- And this one man,
- 00:07:04.173 --> 00:07:06.275
- Knowing her history with six other men,
- 00:07:06.275 --> 00:07:10.213
- Did not shame her, but called out of her.
- 00:07:10.213 --> 00:07:13.249
- The queen that she was, because he understood
- 00:07:13.249 --> 00:07:17.386
- Who i talk to will respond,
- 00:07:17.386 --> 00:07:26.162
- If i talk to her like she is a daughter of god,
- 00:07:27.096 --> 00:07:31.367
- Then she will respond like a daughter of god.
- 00:07:31.367 --> 00:07:35.004
- If i talk to him like he is a son of god,
- 00:07:35.004 --> 00:07:38.241
- Then he will respond like he is a son of god.
- 00:07:38.241 --> 00:07:41.410
- But if i talk to him like he's a fool,
- 00:07:41.410 --> 00:07:43.446
- Guess what's gonna happen?
- 00:07:43.446 --> 00:07:44.647
- He's going to respond like he's a fool.
- 00:07:44.647 --> 00:07:46.616
- Some of y'all been getting fools because you've been talking
- 00:07:46.616 --> 00:07:49.452
- Down, not talking back to me right now.
- 00:07:49.452 --> 00:07:53.789
- See, listen, healing begins
- 00:07:54.390 --> 00:07:57.326
- When you stop drawing from what's been draining you.
- 00:07:57.326 --> 00:08:01.297
- Some of you been in conversations
- 00:08:01.964 --> 00:08:03.733
- That's been draining you.
- 00:08:03.733 --> 00:08:04.934
- Some of you been in friendships
- 00:08:04.934 --> 00:08:06.235
- And relationships that's been draining you.
- 00:08:06.235 --> 00:08:08.204
- Some of you are working a job that's been draining you,
- 00:08:08.204 --> 00:08:10.940
- And you're just trying to get by,
- 00:08:10.940 --> 00:08:12.508
- And you're trying to keep your head above water
- 00:08:12.508 --> 00:08:14.477
- And you're trying not to drown.
- 00:08:14.477 --> 00:08:16.078
- And god is not telling you just to survive.
- 00:08:16.078 --> 00:08:18.514
- He's saying, this is the season where you fall.
- 00:08:18.514 --> 00:08:20.416
- He trusts me to pull you out of the muck and mire
- 00:08:20.416 --> 00:08:23.619
- And keep your head above water, because healing begins
- 00:08:23.619 --> 00:08:27.423
- When you stop drawing from what's been draining you.
- 00:08:27.423 --> 00:08:34.730
- I got a question for you.
- 00:08:35.298 --> 00:08:36.499
- Family.
- 00:08:36.499 --> 00:08:39.268
- How long
- 00:08:39.268 --> 00:08:41.571
- Will you let your thirst
- 00:08:41.571 --> 00:08:43.472
- Lead you back to your trauma? and.
- 00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:48.978
- She's going back to the well because it's familiar.
- 00:08:50.012 --> 00:08:52.381
- She's going back to the well at this particular day.
- 00:08:52.381 --> 00:08:55.051
- Because of shame, because of guilt,
- 00:08:55.051 --> 00:08:56.719
- Because of what people say about her.
- 00:08:56.719 --> 00:08:58.287
- She's going back to the will
- 00:08:58.287 --> 00:08:59.622
- When no one else is there because she has a past.
- 00:08:59.622 --> 00:09:02.325
- And the reality is, is you got a past to.
- 00:09:02.325 --> 00:09:08.264
- You got some history.
- 00:09:08.764 --> 00:09:11.601
- If you were a car, you have some mileage
- 00:09:11.601 --> 00:09:13.436
- On you.
- 00:09:13.436 --> 00:09:19.275
- And jesus,
- 00:09:19.575 --> 00:09:21.243
- Understanding your full history
- 00:09:21.243 --> 00:09:24.914
- And carfax.
- 00:09:24.914 --> 00:09:32.688
- Still fully accepts you.
- 00:09:33.222 --> 00:09:40.663
- So how long
- 00:09:40.997 --> 00:09:43.232
- Would you allow your thirst
- 00:09:43.232 --> 00:09:45.668
- To lead you back to trauma?
- 00:09:45.668 --> 00:09:49.839
- Sometimes.
- 00:09:50.139 --> 00:09:53.709
- We love the trauma.
- 00:09:54.176 --> 00:09:57.313
- Because the trauma
- 00:09:57.747 --> 00:09:59.448
- Is the only thing we've ever known.
- 00:09:59.448 --> 00:10:03.152
- And so we would rather deal with trauma.
- 00:10:03.152 --> 00:10:05.221
- We can see
- 00:10:05.221 --> 00:10:07.189
- Than health.
- 00:10:07.523 --> 00:10:08.157
- We cannot.
- 00:10:08.157 --> 00:10:11.827
- And so we'll stay in a relationship
- 00:10:12.628 --> 00:10:16.732
- Or a situationship.
- 00:10:16.732 --> 00:10:20.403
- That is leading us away from god
- 00:10:21.037 --> 00:10:24.340
- Because it makes us comfortable.
- 00:10:24.974 --> 00:10:27.610
- And it's convenient
- 00:10:27.610 --> 00:10:30.279
- Because we can touch and feel them,
- 00:10:30.279 --> 00:10:33.616
- But we can't see and feel.
- 00:10:33.616 --> 00:10:36.085
- God, let me tell you why you can't feel god
- 00:10:36.085 --> 00:10:39.121
- Because you're too busy feeling on them.
- 00:10:39.121 --> 00:10:51.300
- Just look for it.
- 00:10:51.734 --> 00:10:53.269
- No one and no.
- 00:10:53.269 --> 00:10:53.836
- I'm talking about you.
- 00:10:53.836 --> 00:10:55.971
- Just smile and wave.
- 00:10:55.971 --> 00:10:59.442
- So you need to know point number two,
- 00:11:00.176 --> 00:11:02.344
- You are not disqualified by your mistakes.
- 00:11:02.344 --> 00:11:05.514
- You were developed by them.
- 00:11:05.514 --> 00:11:08.851
- Jesus doesn't shame her story.
- 00:11:09.485 --> 00:11:12.254
- He redeems it.
- 00:11:12.254 --> 00:11:14.423
- Did you hear what i said?
- 00:11:14.423 --> 00:11:16.358
- Jesus does not shame her story.
- 00:11:16.358 --> 00:11:19.628
- He redeems it.
- 00:11:19.628 --> 00:11:22.932
- What the world sees as a scandal.
- 00:11:22.932 --> 00:11:25.301
- Jesus sees a strategy.
- 00:11:25.301 --> 00:11:29.071
- What the world sees as a mistake and a failure.
- 00:11:29.071 --> 00:11:33.075
- Jesus sees it as an opportunity
- 00:11:33.075 --> 00:11:34.910
- To show and display his miracle working power.
- 00:11:34.910 --> 00:11:38.681
- And how one is it?
- 00:11:38.681 --> 00:11:39.515
- Anybody glad that jesus does not see
- 00:11:39.515 --> 00:11:42.818
- All of the things that you've done,
- 00:11:42.818 --> 00:11:46.055
- And he calls you by those things?
- 00:11:46.055 --> 00:11:48.991
- He sees all the things that he's done, that you've done,
- 00:11:48.991 --> 00:11:51.994
- And he still calls you by your name,
- 00:11:51.994 --> 00:11:55.598
- You know.
- 00:11:55.898 --> 00:12:01.303
- He said, your mine.
- 00:12:01.771 --> 00:12:04.039
- I know you've been looking for stuff.
- 00:12:04.774 --> 00:12:06.108
- I know you've been looking for fulfillment.
- 00:12:06.108 --> 00:12:07.476
- I know you've been looking to get filled with all this.
- 00:12:07.476 --> 00:12:10.146
- But you are mine.
- 00:12:10.146 --> 00:12:14.250
- Point number three is this.
- 00:12:14.850 --> 00:12:18.587
- You can't carry your jar
- 00:12:19.088 --> 00:12:21.190
- And your joy at the same time.
- 00:12:21.190 --> 00:12:27.363
- The woman left her jar.
- 00:12:27.897 --> 00:12:31.267
- The symbol of her old life.
- 00:12:31.267 --> 00:12:34.370
- Her old rhythm, her old routine.
- 00:12:34.370 --> 00:12:37.706
- Her old rituals.
- 00:12:38.073 --> 00:12:40.910
- And she ran into her new reality.
- 00:12:40.910 --> 00:12:44.547
- Some of you are trying to carry joy and your jars
- 00:12:45.548 --> 00:12:49.919
- At the same time.
- 00:12:49.919 --> 00:12:53.856
- You cannot carry both.
- 00:12:54.323 --> 00:12:57.626
- You have to leave one behind.
- 00:12:58.260 --> 00:13:02.731
- And the sad reality for some of us is
- 00:13:03.532 --> 00:13:05.467
- That we've been leaving joy behind, pursuing other jars.
- 00:13:05.467 --> 00:13:11.473
- Because surely
- 00:13:11.807 --> 00:13:12.641
- This jar of water will fulfill me.
- 00:13:12.641 --> 00:13:16.011
- This jar of water will satisfy me.
- 00:13:16.779 --> 00:13:18.447
- This jar of water will quench my thirst.
- 00:13:18.447 --> 00:13:20.749
- This jar of water.
- 00:13:20.749 --> 00:13:21.650
- It's labeled pretty.
- 00:13:21.650 --> 00:13:23.319
- It has a nice label on it.
- 00:13:23.319 --> 00:13:28.357
- This jar of water.
- 00:13:28.791 --> 00:13:32.428
- Is balanced perfectly
- 00:13:32.928 --> 00:13:35.431
- With all of the various ph█s.
- 00:13:35.431 --> 00:13:40.903
- And you can't carry your jar
- 00:13:41.470 --> 00:13:44.440
- And your joy
- 00:13:44.440 --> 00:13:46.542
- At the same time.
- 00:13:46.542 --> 00:13:50.512
- You want to know
- 00:13:50.913 --> 00:13:51.747
- Why you're overwhelmed in this season?
- 00:13:51.747 --> 00:13:54.950
- Because you've been carrying
- 00:13:55.551 --> 00:13:56.385
- Too many jars.
- 00:13:56.385 --> 00:14:00.923
- And the reality is, for some of us is we think
- 00:14:01.824 --> 00:14:04.526
- We're carrying these jars for jesus.
- 00:14:04.526 --> 00:14:11.300
- It's mine.
- 00:14:11.600 --> 00:14:12.701
- So i must i must have to carry all these jars.
- 00:14:12.701 --> 00:14:15.804
- I must have to juggle all these things.
- 00:14:15.804 --> 00:14:17.606
- I must have to do all these different things.
- 00:14:17.606 --> 00:14:19.708
- And the reality is, he did not make you to carry those jars.
- 00:14:19.708 --> 00:14:23.545
- He made you to steward his joy.
- 00:14:23.545 --> 00:14:30.853
- Frankly, put
- 00:14:31.186 --> 00:14:32.021
- Freedom is not found in what you carry.
- 00:14:32.021 --> 00:14:35.424
- Freedom is found in who you surrender.
- 00:14:35.424 --> 00:14:37.660
- What you carry to.
- 00:14:37.660 --> 00:14:41.563
- And it's impossible to run with good news
- 00:14:42.398 --> 00:14:45.067
- If you're still weighed down by old needs.
- 00:14:45.067 --> 00:14:51.473
- Jesus is telling samaritan woman.
- 00:14:52.174 --> 00:14:56.145
- All that you have need of,
- 00:14:56.712 --> 00:14:59.782
- All that you desire,
- 00:14:59.782 --> 00:15:02.618
- All that you want.
- 00:15:02.618 --> 00:15:05.220
- It's found in.
- 00:15:05.220 --> 00:15:09.191
- And it says that she comes to this realization
- 00:15:09.191 --> 00:15:11.560
- That she's not just talking to a rabbi.
- 00:15:11.560 --> 00:15:13.362
- She's not just talking to a prophet.
- 00:15:13.362 --> 00:15:14.897
- She is, in fact, talking to the messiah.
- 00:15:14.897 --> 00:15:17.933
- And she runs and testifies
- 00:15:17.933 --> 00:15:21.170
- About her encounter with jesus.
- 00:15:21.170 --> 00:15:24.773
- Point number four is this
- 00:15:25.341 --> 00:15:28.477
- Your come and see can be someone else's
- 00:15:28.477 --> 00:15:31.880
- Now i believe.
- 00:15:31.880 --> 00:15:36.151
- Her testimony became a movement
- 00:15:36.819 --> 00:15:39.621
- And she didn't preach a message.
- 00:15:39.621 --> 00:15:43.692
- Her testimony became a movement.
- 00:15:44.326 --> 00:15:46.295
- And she didn't have a microphone.
- 00:15:46.295 --> 00:15:49.732
- Her testimony became a movement, and she didn't have a stage.
- 00:15:49.732 --> 00:15:54.970
- A testimony became a movement
- 00:15:55.604 --> 00:15:58.540
- Simply because she shared how she had been transformed
- 00:15:58.540 --> 00:16:02.711
- By jesus christ.
- 00:16:03.112 --> 00:16:07.416
- When the last time you talked
- 00:16:08.050 --> 00:16:09.318
- About how god transformed you.
- 00:16:09.318 --> 00:16:14.456
- Are you allowing perfectionism
- 00:16:15.057 --> 00:16:16.592
- To stop your testimony?
- 00:16:16.592 --> 00:16:21.130
- Are you allowing your current test,
- 00:16:21.897 --> 00:16:23.799
- Your current trial, your current struggle
- 00:16:23.799 --> 00:16:26.001
- To stop you from talking about what jesus brought you out of?
- 00:16:26.001 --> 00:16:31.540
- Is it possible that you come out of this trial,
- 00:16:32.441 --> 00:16:35.411
- This tribulation, this test by your testimony?
- 00:16:35.411 --> 00:16:39.548
- See, scripture teaches us we overcome
- 00:16:40.382 --> 00:16:42.751
- By the blood of the lamb and by the words of our testimony.
- 00:16:42.751 --> 00:16:46.555
- When you begin to talk about how jesus you, out of that sin,
- 00:16:46.555 --> 00:16:50.459
- Guess what?
- 00:16:50.459 --> 00:16:51.593
- Jesus will give you the strength to get out of this sin.
- 00:16:51.593 --> 00:16:56.865
- Jesus didn't tell her, hey,
- 00:16:57.466 --> 00:16:59.168
- I don't want you to speak about what happened here.
- 00:16:59.168 --> 00:17:01.370
- I don't want you to hide this conversation.
- 00:17:01.370 --> 00:17:04.239
- I don't want you to to to to not tell.
- 00:17:04.239 --> 00:17:06.375
- He said, listen,
- 00:17:06.375 --> 00:17:07.443
- Go and tell people about your interaction with me.
- 00:17:07.443 --> 00:17:11.747
- You know why?
- 00:17:12.114 --> 00:17:14.650
- Because jesus is not ashamed
- 00:17:14.650 --> 00:17:17.486
- To be associated with you and with me.
- 00:17:17.486 --> 00:17:21.523
- He is proud to be associated with you and with me,
- 00:17:21.523 --> 00:17:25.661
- Not because of our great works and our ability
- 00:17:25.661 --> 00:17:28.797
- And our good deeds.
- 00:17:28.797 --> 00:17:30.099
- Because of his grace and his mercy.
- 00:17:30.099 --> 00:17:32.634
- That's new.
- 00:17:32.634 --> 00:17:33.302
- Every single morning
- 00:17:33.302 --> 00:17:34.837
- We have an opportunity to sit at the well with him
- 00:17:34.837 --> 00:17:37.706
- And leave the world differently than how we came.
- 00:17:37.706 --> 00:17:40.909
- So you don't need a mic to have an impact.
- 00:17:40.909 --> 00:17:44.646
- All you need is a memory
- 00:17:45.180 --> 00:17:46.715
- Of god's mercy.
- 00:17:46.715 --> 00:17:49.885
- And when you can remember what he brought you out of.
- 00:17:50.986 --> 00:17:54.256
- When you can remember the last trial he bought you do.
- 00:17:54.256 --> 00:17:57.159
- When you can remember the last test
- 00:17:57.159 --> 00:17:59.261
- He allowed you to pass, when you can remember.
- 00:17:59.261 --> 00:18:02.231
- And you bring yourself to the memory of the mercy
- 00:18:02.231 --> 00:18:05.267
- That only god can give.
- 00:18:05.267 --> 00:18:06.802
- It's a light of fire on the inside of you
- 00:18:06.802 --> 00:18:09.538
- That can't be put out.
- 00:18:09.538 --> 00:18:11.073
- And the word of god says, this is my fire set up in my bones.
- 00:18:11.073 --> 00:18:16.512
- So you don't need a stage.
- 00:18:17.079 --> 00:18:18.280
- You need a memory of god's mercy.
- 00:18:18.280 --> 00:18:21.550
- You don't need a moment.
- 00:18:21.550 --> 00:18:22.684
- Some of you like. i'm just waiting on my moment. pass.
- 00:18:22.684 --> 00:18:24.219
- I'm just waiting on my moment. i'm just waiting on my moment.
- 00:18:24.219 --> 00:18:26.421
- I'm just waiting on my moment.
- 00:18:26.421 --> 00:18:27.656
- I'm waiting on god to tell me when.
- 00:18:27.656 --> 00:18:29.258
- I'm waiting for god to tell me when.
- 00:18:29.258 --> 00:18:30.792
- And the moment is when you remember.
- 00:18:30.792 --> 00:18:34.630
- Can you remember the sin that you got saved from?
- 00:18:34.630 --> 00:18:38.834
- Can you remember the lifestyle you got delivered from?
- 00:18:38.834 --> 00:18:42.004
- Can you remember when he healed your body?
- 00:18:42.004 --> 00:18:43.972
- When doctors could not?
- 00:18:43.972 --> 00:18:45.107
- Can you remember
- 00:18:45.107 --> 00:18:46.141
- When he gave you wisdom and knowledge
- 00:18:46.141 --> 00:18:48.143
- To get out of that situation and that relationship,
- 00:18:48.143 --> 00:18:50.913
- When you couldn't figure out how to get out?
- 00:18:50.913 --> 00:18:52.948
- Can you remember when you can remember that is the moment.
- 00:18:52.948 --> 00:19:01.924
- Some of us are
- 00:19:02.257 --> 00:19:03.058
- Waiting on opportunities,
- 00:19:03.058 --> 00:19:06.128
- And i'm telling you, you have to create the opportunity.
- 00:19:06.128 --> 00:19:10.265
- The way you create the opportunity,
- 00:19:11.033 --> 00:19:13.902
- It's still a memory
- 00:19:13.902 --> 00:19:15.771
- Of the mercy of god.
- 00:19:15.771 --> 00:19:18.740
- Had it not been for the grace of jesus
- 00:19:18.740 --> 00:19:21.310
- Christ, where in the world would we be?
- 00:19:21.310 --> 00:19:26.782
- Stuck in the sin.
- 00:19:27.216 --> 00:19:28.183
- Stuck in the lifestyle.
- 00:19:28.183 --> 00:19:29.251
- Stuck in the cycle.
- 00:19:29.251 --> 00:19:30.185
- Stuck in and in.
- 00:19:30.185 --> 00:19:31.453
- In the routine and in the mundane.
- 00:19:31.453 --> 00:19:33.555
- Washing machine
- 00:19:33.555 --> 00:19:34.690
- Going over and over and over and over and over again.
- 00:19:34.690 --> 00:19:37.659
- The same things over and over and over and over again, telling
- 00:19:37.659 --> 00:19:41.730
- God i'm sorry and him accepting us back again
- 00:19:41.730 --> 00:19:45.400
- Because of his grace and his mercy.
- 00:19:45.400 --> 00:19:52.541
- You don't need a mike.
- 00:19:53.008 --> 00:19:55.811
- You don't need a moment
- 00:19:55.811 --> 00:19:58.614
- In a memory of god's mercy.
- 00:19:58.614 --> 00:20:04.119
- And the
- 00:20:04.353 --> 00:20:05.287
- Reason god used this great woman of god.
- 00:20:05.287 --> 00:20:08.323
- It's not because her words were perfect.
- 00:20:08.323 --> 00:20:11.994
- Reason jesus used her.
- 00:20:12.461 --> 00:20:15.130
- It's because her words were honest.
- 00:20:15.130 --> 00:20:20.836
- She didn't hide her past.
- 00:20:21.403 --> 00:20:24.706
- She revealed her past
- 00:20:25.207 --> 00:20:26.742
- And got healed from her past.
- 00:20:26.742 --> 00:20:34.883
- So you're not just saved
- 00:20:35.417 --> 00:20:37.352
- From something
- 00:20:37.352 --> 00:20:39.988
- You are saved for someone.
- 00:20:39.988 --> 00:20:51.700
- Got enough phony christians.
- 00:20:52.301 --> 00:20:57.406
- Stop acting like
- 00:20:57.806 --> 00:20:58.674
- You've been perfect all your life.
- 00:20:58.674 --> 00:21:03.345
- You know why
- 00:21:03.679 --> 00:21:05.647
- People don't want to go to church with you?
- 00:21:05.647 --> 00:21:08.717
- Because you act perfect.
- 00:21:08.717 --> 00:21:11.653
- Try to hide your flaws and your sin.
- 00:21:11.653 --> 00:21:13.989
- Word of god says that jesus will heal
- 00:21:13.989 --> 00:21:17.693
- What you present to him?
- 00:21:18.226 --> 00:21:21.863
- They know you're not perfect.
- 00:21:21.863 --> 00:21:22.864
- Stop acting like you are.
- 00:21:22.864 --> 00:21:24.733
- We are all in pursuit of the perfect one
- 00:21:24.733 --> 00:21:26.902
- That heals us, that delivers us, that saves us, that redeems
- 00:21:26.902 --> 00:21:29.705
- Us, that restores us, that resurrects us.
- 00:21:29.705 --> 00:21:32.174
- But we cannot resurrect ourselves.
- 00:21:32.174 --> 00:21:34.643
- He knows everything about you, and he still chooses you.
- 00:21:34.643 --> 00:21:42.751
- So your story.
- 00:21:43.085 --> 00:21:46.822
- Is someone else's survivors, manual.
- 00:21:46.822 --> 00:21:52.928
- Don't hide
- 00:21:53.228 --> 00:21:55.097
- What god has delivered you from.
- 00:21:55.097 --> 00:22:00.369
- He's brought you from a mighty long way.
- 00:22:01.203 --> 00:22:05.073
- And the reality is, he is not finished yet.
- 00:22:05.073 --> 00:22:08.677
- He's got great
- 00:22:09.010 --> 00:22:09.945
- Plans for your life.
- 00:22:09.945 --> 00:22:12.647
- I'm reminded of jeremiah chapter
- 00:22:12.647 --> 00:22:14.916
- 29, verse 11.
- 00:22:14.916 --> 00:22:18.053
- Oftentimes when we read this, we believe that the
- 00:22:19.087 --> 00:22:21.790
- Beginning portion is the promise that he makes us this
- 00:22:21.790 --> 00:22:25.127
- Scripture says, for i know the plans i have
- 00:22:26.027 --> 00:22:27.996
- For you, declares the lord.
- 00:22:27.996 --> 00:22:31.533
- Plans for welfare and not for evil,
- 00:22:31.533 --> 00:22:35.170
- To give you a future and a hope.
- 00:22:35.170 --> 00:22:38.940
- We read this.
- 00:22:39.307 --> 00:22:40.175
- We believe that's the promise.
- 00:22:40.175 --> 00:22:41.676
- That's not the promise.
- 00:22:41.676 --> 00:22:43.178
- Verse 12 says, then you will call upon me
- 00:22:43.178 --> 00:22:46.114
- And come and pray to me,
- 00:22:46.114 --> 00:22:48.850
- And i will hear you.
- 00:22:48.850 --> 00:22:52.754
- Here's the promise you will seek me
- 00:22:53.488 --> 00:22:57.092
- And find me.
- 00:22:57.426 --> 00:23:00.529
- When you seek me with all your heart,
- 00:23:01.329 --> 00:23:04.132
- I will be found by you,
- 00:23:04.132 --> 00:23:07.869
- Declares the lord.
- 00:23:08.303 --> 00:23:10.839
- Do you know why the samaritan woman
- 00:23:10.839 --> 00:23:14.342
- Was delivered and set free?
- 00:23:14.342 --> 00:23:16.711
- Because she sought out the lord and found him.
- 00:23:16.711 --> 00:23:21.283
- Do you know that god has a plan and a purpose for your life?
- 00:23:21.283 --> 00:23:26.288
- And the truth of this scripture is he knows the plans.
- 00:23:26.288 --> 00:23:29.858
- You don't.
- 00:23:29.858 --> 00:23:36.097
- The tension of this verse
- 00:23:36.665 --> 00:23:39.935
- Is that it says in verse number 12,
- 00:23:39.935 --> 00:23:42.804
- Then you will call upon me.
- 00:23:42.804 --> 00:23:47.375
- So often we call on our friends,
- 00:23:48.009 --> 00:23:50.378
- We call on our family, and we call on everyone else.
- 00:23:50.378 --> 00:23:54.182
- We call on our abilities and our efforts and our research
- 00:23:54.182 --> 00:23:57.919
- And our information and our insight.
- 00:23:57.919 --> 00:23:59.821
- And he's saying, you will call upon me, and here's the promise.
- 00:23:59.821 --> 00:24:06.261
- You will find me.
- 00:24:06.695 --> 00:24:15.170
- For the well, in john chapter four,
- 00:24:15.971 --> 00:24:17.639
- It represented a routine that represented religion.
- 00:24:17.639 --> 00:24:20.075
- It represented shame, it represented survival.
- 00:24:20.075 --> 00:24:22.844
- And jesus sitting at the well represents freedom,
- 00:24:22.844 --> 00:24:26.348
- True fulfillment, and eternal life.
- 00:24:26.348 --> 00:24:30.485
- She came to the well with a jar and a history
- 00:24:31.353 --> 00:24:34.623
- And she left with a testimony and a future.
- 00:24:34.623 --> 00:24:38.226
- I mentioned this in the message, but i believe it will resonate
- 00:24:39.427 --> 00:24:43.031
- Right now for a time as we close this broadcast.
- 00:24:43.031 --> 00:24:46.268
- That is this truth.
- 00:24:46.735 --> 00:24:48.603
- Those that entrust everything into god's
- 00:24:48.603 --> 00:24:51.506
- Hands will see god's hands in everything.
- 00:24:51.506 --> 00:24:55.477
- What is it right now you need to leave behind.
- 00:24:55.477 --> 00:24:58.346
- What is it? right now?
- 00:24:58.346 --> 00:24:59.147
- You need to drop and let go of it.
- 00:24:59.147 --> 00:25:01.616
- Is it right now?
- 00:25:01.616 --> 00:25:02.584
- You need to lay at his feet and surrender.
- 00:25:02.584 --> 00:25:05.086
- For some of us has habits, for others is relationships.
- 00:25:05.086 --> 00:25:08.623
- Many of us it's
- 00:25:09.024 --> 00:25:09.958
- Thoughts and ideas that are contrary
- 00:25:09.958 --> 00:25:11.826
- To the things god desires for us. whatever
- 00:25:11.826 --> 00:25:14.029
- It is right now, i want you to leave it at the well.
- 00:25:14.029 --> 00:25:17.566
- Jesus is with you.
- 00:25:17.999 --> 00:25:19.601
- He desires to take those things and replace them with joy,
- 00:25:19.601 --> 00:25:23.204
- Peace, love.
- 00:25:23.204 --> 00:25:25.040
- And so right now, i want to set myself in agreement with you
- 00:25:25.040 --> 00:25:27.542
- And my hope, my prayer, my belief is that whatever it is
- 00:25:27.542 --> 00:25:31.246
- That you need to leave at the well,
- 00:25:31.246 --> 00:25:32.681
- Jesus will give you the strength to do so.
- 00:25:32.681 --> 00:25:35.250
- And so right now, i pray for my brother and my sister.
- 00:25:35.250 --> 00:25:37.485
- I ask god that you would give them
- 00:25:37.485 --> 00:25:38.954
- The courage, the strength, the boldness to leave
- 00:25:38.954 --> 00:25:40.989
- Whatever it is behind, leave it at the well right now.
- 00:25:40.989 --> 00:25:44.159
- We thank you right now.
- 00:25:44.159 --> 00:25:45.060
- God that you are exchanging what it is
- 00:25:45.060 --> 00:25:47.095
- That they've been caring for, what it is that you carry.
- 00:25:47.095 --> 00:25:49.864
- We exchange fear for peace.
- 00:25:49.864 --> 00:25:52.300
- We exchange anger for love.
- 00:25:52.300 --> 00:25:54.603
- We exchange bitterness.
- 00:25:54.603 --> 00:25:56.204
- God for joy.
- 00:25:56.204 --> 00:25:57.405
- And we thank you right now in the name of jesus that we,
- 00:25:57.405 --> 00:25:59.541
- As we make this exchange with you,
- 00:25:59.541 --> 00:26:01.509
- You give us something that we cannot give ourselves.
- 00:26:01.509 --> 00:26:03.979
- And so we ask right now,
- 00:26:03.979 --> 00:26:04.980
- In the name of jesus, that you would do
- 00:26:04.980 --> 00:26:07.115
- The unthinkable supernatural things that you do.
- 00:26:07.115 --> 00:26:10.251
- In jesus name we pray. amen.
- 00:26:10.819 --> 00:26:14.155
- Family, i pray that this broadcast has been a blessing,
- 00:26:14.155 --> 00:26:17.459
- And if so, our team is going
- 00:26:17.459 --> 00:26:18.627
- To throw some information at the bottom of the screen
- 00:26:18.627 --> 00:26:20.695
- As to how you can partner with us.
- 00:26:20.695 --> 00:26:22.597
- I want you to know your financial contribution
- 00:26:22.597 --> 00:26:24.432
- And whether it's small or large, all of it matters.
- 00:26:24.432 --> 00:26:27.335
- And eternity and all of it matters in helping us
- 00:26:27.335 --> 00:26:30.105
- Continue to spread this message of jesus christ
- 00:26:30.105 --> 00:26:32.340
- To the four corners of the world.

- We couldn't do it without you.
- 00:26:35.944 --> 00:26:37.278
- We don't want to do it without you.
- 00:26:37.278 --> 00:26:39.047
- And i believe that every single seed that you so
- 00:26:39.047 --> 00:26:42.651
- Will have a harvest that reproduces after its own god.
- 00:26:42.651 --> 00:26:46.388
