00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:07,400
Thanks for checking out the 
anchor Faith. 

2
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:09,800
Message podcast from st. 
Augustine Florida. 

3
00:00:10,300 --> 00:00:23,000
Now enjoyed this message. 
I said the Bible is about as 

4
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:27,400
king. 
His kingdom and Israel. 

5
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:32,100
All spring do not let that 
become a casual thought in your 

6
00:00:32,100 --> 00:00:36,200
mind ever. 
Don't ever do it, don't ever do 

7
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,800
it. 
Let it always be Revelation that

8
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:44,000
the Bible is about a king, his 
kingdom and his Royal Offspring 

9
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:47,600
because his government is the 
only government that will stand 

10
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,900
forever. 
Hallelujah. 

11
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:55,300
I said, Hallelujah. 
The Lord is good. 

12
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,700
The Lord is good. 
Amen. 

13
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,100
The last time I was with you, I 
think our staff again for 

14
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,900
menacing the word, Pastor, Mike 
Minister, and last Sunday and 

15
00:01:04,900 --> 00:01:06,900
Wednesday while we were on a 
Simon. 

16
00:01:06,900 --> 00:01:08,900
Amen. 
This is what's so great about 

17
00:01:08,900 --> 00:01:11,100
the vision to ignite the city 
and pack the nation and 

18
00:01:11,100 --> 00:01:15,500
influence the world. 
Your gift can be deployed here 

19
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,800
and is being deployed by 
multiple people. 

20
00:01:18,900 --> 00:01:25,900
People, all you have to do is 
take a very honest look. 

21
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:32,200
At how many individuals within 
this church, body are actively 

22
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:38,600
doing. 
And we instruct from this 

23
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,700
premise that no one can stop 
your gift. 

24
00:01:41,700 --> 00:01:45,900
But you because God desires, 
that you give come out. 

25
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:52,300
He does and Pastor Marcy and I 
are primary responsibility is to

26
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:56,300
yield to the spirit because 
Jesus is the head of the church.

27
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,200
So primary responsibility. 
Well Jesus, what do you want to 

28
00:02:01,208 --> 00:02:04,600
do? 
I was on the beach today praying

29
00:02:04,700 --> 00:02:09,199
and I said, it's your church. 
What are you going to do? 

30
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,700
Is your church and I have 
multiple questions that I'm 

31
00:02:14,700 --> 00:02:18,700
asking him about his church. 
One this morning was, what do 

32
00:02:18,700 --> 00:02:20,200
you want to say to your people 
today? 

33
00:02:21,100 --> 00:02:22,700
Because my wife asked you as 
well. 

34
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,000
What are you preaching on? 
I said, I have no idea. 

35
00:02:26,700 --> 00:02:31,400
I've not been informed yet so 
that was one of my, my 

36
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,200
conversations in prayer when I 
was out praying this morning. 

37
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,400
I'm like it's your church. 
What do you want to say? 

38
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,000
Amen, actually had a text in 
when I was driving into town. 

39
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,800
I said let them know it's 
coming. 

40
00:02:45,500 --> 00:02:47,200
Before they ask. 
Where's the sermon? 

41
00:02:47,300 --> 00:02:49,600
It's coming. 
I'm speaking those things by 

42
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,900
faith. 
Amen. 

43
00:02:53,900 --> 00:02:56,400
Hallelujah. 
I mean it's great when he gives 

44
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:01,400
it to me early but he could not 
and I'm fine with that because I

45
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,400
know this he will, I said he 
will. 

46
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,000
Amen. 
Because there's much to say to 

47
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,700
his church. 
Second thing that our 

48
00:03:09,700 --> 00:03:15,100
responsibility is is to find 
your gift and deploy it defines 

49
00:03:15,100 --> 00:03:18,100
your gift and deploy it. 
And we desire to do that. 

50
00:03:18,100 --> 00:03:20,500
Why? 
Because there's a lot to do. 

51
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,400
I said there's a lot. 
To do and God has put each 

52
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:29,100
individual part in the body as 
he desires. 

53
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,800
Amen. 
He does that. 

54
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:36,100
And that's why I love church so 
much because it seeing every 

55
00:03:36,100 --> 00:03:40,300
child of God. 
Thrive in what God has called 

56
00:03:40,300 --> 00:03:45,000
them to do. 
It's amazing, it's amazing. 

57
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:50,400
And when you come and say Dad, I
just want to do what you've 

58
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:54,300
called me to do. 
Then you eradicate what we 

59
00:03:54,300 --> 00:03:59,100
talked about the last time I 
ministered here on that Sunday 

60
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:00,900
or Wednesday? 
I don't remember which one it 

61
00:04:00,900 --> 00:04:02,300
is. 
Now probably Wednesday, I guess 

62
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:10,100
about getting rid of self. 
You know, you got to get rid of 

63
00:04:10,108 --> 00:04:12,900
that selfish ambition. 
Amen. 

64
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:18,200
So I felt like the spirit of God
said when I was coming in, I 

65
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,000
want you to go one more layer. 
It's not a series, it's just 

66
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:26,000
another sermon. 
Okay, but we want to eradicate 

67
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:31,000
self, we want to eliminate it. 
Eliminate it And there's a 

68
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:35,300
Elementary truth. 
An elementary truth that allows 

69
00:04:35,300 --> 00:04:38,600
us to do it and I'm going to I 
want them the Holy Ghost wants 

70
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,700
us to speak about that today. 
So we'll start Matthew chapter 6

71
00:04:41,700 --> 00:04:47,500
33 because it gives us some 
context here but seek seek. 

72
00:04:47,700 --> 00:04:53,400
Come on help me out. 
See Quinn seat, win first. 

73
00:04:55,500 --> 00:05:04,800
Well, first is first. 
First is first, you can always 

74
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:08,600
know where you're at in your 
relationship with God. 

75
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:16,800
Right there. 
You can always know where you're

76
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:22,700
at, in your relationship with 
the father is, whatever you're 

77
00:05:22,700 --> 00:05:27,500
in. 
Did you seek first? 

78
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:37,900
He is. 
Did you seek first his If it 

79
00:05:37,900 --> 00:05:40,200
doesn't come up well, what does 
the word say about this? 

80
00:05:43,700 --> 00:05:57,200
Then you have an alternative. 
Hallelujah, but seek seek his 

81
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:06,600
Not yours. 
Seek first his, what his 

82
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:11,900
kingdom. 
And his, that's his way of doing

83
00:06:11,900 --> 00:06:16,100
things because his kingdom only 
functions on how he does it. 

84
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:21,600
In fact, his whole kingdom is 
established on his word because 

85
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,800
where the word of the king is 
there's power. 

86
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,100
Amen. 
And all these things will be 

87
00:06:31,100 --> 00:06:34,500
added to you. 
So, whatever you're going 

88
00:06:34,500 --> 00:06:38,600
through, if you want something 
to get added, then you need to 

89
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:45,000
seek first his Are you hearing 
me? 

90
00:06:45,500 --> 00:06:47,300
Because the Bible is about a 
kingdom. 

91
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:52,500
His about a king, his kingdom, 
in his role offspring, That's 

92
00:06:52,500 --> 00:06:56,200
why Jesus, his very, I mean, 
when he launches out to preach, 

93
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,800
he said, repent, you need change
your thinking. 

94
00:07:01,300 --> 00:07:04,500
The Amplified says it this way 
side with my party. 

95
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,400
Because there's a new 
government. 

96
00:07:09,700 --> 00:07:14,400
That you are not seeing in a 
scene realm and I'm bringing 

97
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,900
that back. 
You hear me? 

98
00:07:17,500 --> 00:07:20,200
So you're going to change the 
way you think in order for you 

99
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,900
to access Kingdom. 
You're going to change the way 

100
00:07:23,900 --> 00:07:27,000
you think in order for you to 
access Kingdom and Jesus, lets 

101
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,700
us know you won't Kingdom to be 
accessed in your life, to where 

102
00:07:29,700 --> 00:07:32,100
things of the Kingdom get added 
to you all the time. 

103
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:38,900
What you got to seek his First, 
he is not just first. 

104
00:07:38,900 --> 00:07:44,200
First hit is, that means you 
can't make first yours third. 

105
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:54,300
His Are you hear me now? 
Why does he say that? 

106
00:07:54,300 --> 00:07:57,300
Because Jesus knew Proverbs 
14:12. 

107
00:07:59,900 --> 00:08:03,600
He knew this verse and he knew 
that it was said there's a way 

108
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:09,100
that seems right to a man but 
it's end is the way of death. 

109
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,000
And he doesn't want man to be on
the path of death anymore. 

110
00:08:13,500 --> 00:08:14,900
Aren't you? 
Glad God doesn't want us on the 

111
00:08:14,900 --> 00:08:20,800
path of death anymore but if 
You're not seeking first his. 

112
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,800
Your first step is in a path of 
death. 

113
00:08:28,900 --> 00:08:30,600
So where's your relationship 
with God? 

114
00:08:33,299 --> 00:08:37,100
Is that first step out? 
And that first step, one 

115
00:08:37,100 --> 00:08:49,500
identify who is in charge. 
It will identify if there's a 

116
00:08:49,500 --> 00:08:53,500
little self left. 
In an area of your life. 

117
00:08:54,300 --> 00:08:57,200
You want to know if there's a 
little self left see if you step

118
00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:05,200
out before it is written. 
Start making moves before it is 

119
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,200
written. 
Now I realize the scripture says

120
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:11,200
this right. 
I know that. 

121
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:16,800
The plans. 
There are plans that a man has, 

122
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,600
right. 
The righteous man has plans, but

123
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:23,800
the ER but the Lord directs his 
steps, right? 

124
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:29,800
So that tells me if you're 
seeking his kingdom first then 

125
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,500
although you're stepping out 
you're stepping out first 

126
00:09:32,500 --> 00:09:35,700
thinking. 
Now Lord I'm moving in a few 

127
00:09:35,700 --> 00:09:40,100
directions based upon my 
knowledge of you but in no way. 

128
00:09:40,100 --> 00:09:42,000
Am I trying to go down 
somewhere? 

129
00:09:42,100 --> 00:09:46,600
Independent of you. 
So then we already have faith. 

130
00:09:46,700 --> 00:09:50,900
I'm moving in a direction that 
I'm wanting to see. 

131
00:09:50,900 --> 00:09:55,100
Is this, your path? 
And you're going to direct my 

132
00:09:55,100 --> 00:09:59,500
step because I have no selfish 
interest in this way 

133
00:10:00,100 --> 00:10:03,700
specifically, because I could 
just as easily go this way, this

134
00:10:03,700 --> 00:10:06,900
way, or that way, because I got 
a few pass here that I could 

135
00:10:06,900 --> 00:10:09,300
choose. 
But at the end of the day, you 

136
00:10:09,300 --> 00:10:13,600
have the right to direct them. 
Are you hear me? 

137
00:10:14,900 --> 00:10:20,200
So Jesus knows this. 
Jesus confronted this himself in

138
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:25,100
Luke chapter, 18 verses 18 to 
24, says this and a ruler, 

139
00:10:25,100 --> 00:10:27,500
questioned him saying, good 
teacher. 

140
00:10:27,900 --> 00:10:31,500
What shall I do to inherit 
eternal life? 

141
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,500
And Jesus said to him, why do 
you call me good? 

142
00:10:34,500 --> 00:10:36,100
No one is good. 
Except God Alone. 

143
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,900
He says, you know, the 
Commandments do not commit 

144
00:10:38,900 --> 00:10:41,800
adultery do not murder, do not 
steal, do not bear false, 

145
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:43,500
witness, honor your father and 
mother. 

146
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,400
And he said, all these things 
I've kept from my youth when 

147
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,100
Jesus heard this, he said to 
him. 

148
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:53,700
One thing, you still like sell, 
all you possess distribute it to

149
00:10:53,700 --> 00:10:56,700
the poor, and you will have 
treasure in heaven, and come 

150
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,900
follow me. 
But when he heard these things, 

151
00:10:59,900 --> 00:11:04,700
he became very sad for. 
He was extremely rich and Jesus 

152
00:11:04,700 --> 00:11:07,100
looked at him and said, looked 
at him. 

153
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:12,100
So told him to his face. how 
hard it is for those who are 

154
00:11:12,100 --> 00:11:18,000
wealthy to enter the kingdom of 
God, Now we would love to limit 

155
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:23,900
this to finance, but what Jesus 
is pointing out is he was 

156
00:11:23,900 --> 00:11:27,000
determining who was actually 
Lord of his life. 

157
00:11:29,700 --> 00:11:34,500
That was the challenge here. 
Okay, this is a lordship 

158
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,200
scripture. 
The scripture identifies 

159
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:40,200
lordship. 
Who is Lord? 

160
00:11:40,900 --> 00:11:46,100
He testified that Jesus was 
Lord, because he kept the 

161
00:11:46,100 --> 00:11:49,400
Commandments. 
Jesus, on the other hand says, 

162
00:11:49,500 --> 00:11:55,100
you've kept the Commandments, 
according to your desire, your 

163
00:11:55,100 --> 00:11:59,700
calling, how you keep it? 
If you're doing it because I 

164
00:11:59,700 --> 00:12:08,300
said it, I'm going to say this. 
Sell it all. 

165
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:18,200
I'ma find out whether you really
Have made me Lord, are you hear 

166
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,300
me? 
Some of us have a wealth of 

167
00:12:20,300 --> 00:12:23,400
thoughts that keep us from fully
submitting? 

168
00:12:24,700 --> 00:12:27,800
But I'm just gonna be honest 
with you, many of us have this 

169
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,100
problem because of how the 
gospel was first. 

170
00:12:30,100 --> 00:12:35,100
Preached to us. 
I came into town last night 

171
00:12:35,100 --> 00:12:38,500
because I came to see my 
grandson play a little baseball 

172
00:12:38,500 --> 00:12:43,000
game and half the church is on 
the team and so they won the 

173
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,900
first game. 
Hallelujah, so that's good. 

174
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,000
But as we were coming, you're 
dropping off a couple other 

175
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,000
grandkids. 
And when I stopped at the 312, 

176
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:57,600
light us wanted 312, A guy was 
standing on a box, he had a 

177
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:01,300
megaphone. 
And he began to preach. 

178
00:13:02,900 --> 00:13:06,200
He's in at shirt and Tha. 
Okay, and he began to say. 

179
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,300
Can I take a moment of your time
while you're at this red light 

180
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,000
and I'm listening to this guy, 
he says you know why you're 

181
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:16,000
here, just ask you question 
where you going to go when you 

182
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,700
die. 
You have eternal security, 

183
00:13:19,900 --> 00:13:21,900
right? 
Because unless you've made 

184
00:13:21,900 --> 00:13:25,000
Jesus, Christ your lord. 
You cannot go to heaven. 

185
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,300
You'll go to hell. 
Where there's torment. 

186
00:13:29,500 --> 00:13:35,200
I mean, he got this message this
this tree of Salvation, the way 

187
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:39,100
to enter. 
Down in a red light. 

188
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,800
And I look more of a sudden 
that's pretty impressive. 

189
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:48,700
That he was able to articulate a
thought within a red light. 

190
00:13:49,300 --> 00:13:53,500
Now the end of the day I had no 
problems with that I'm like well

191
00:13:53,500 --> 00:13:56,800
he's definitely got them planted
a seed of thought. 

192
00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,700
At the end of the day he planted
a seed of thought, you know, 

193
00:14:00,700 --> 00:14:04,400
somebody could cause God's use 
that thought on us on more than 

194
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,900
one occasion, right? 
The to start knocking at our 

195
00:14:07,900 --> 00:14:11,600
door to try to, let us know 
Life's a little bit bigger than 

196
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,300
just the time. 
I'm your in. 

197
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:15,900
All right, I have no problem 
with that, I get it. 

198
00:14:15,900 --> 00:14:19,400
Okay, but you understand the 
Rich Young Ruler have the same 

199
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:24,700
gospel. 
Because he was only thinking in 

200
00:14:24,700 --> 00:14:30,300
line till what must I do to have
eternal life. 

201
00:14:33,500 --> 00:14:36,200
He wasn't asking. 
How do I get the kingdom? 

202
00:14:37,700 --> 00:14:43,500
Jesus. 
When he presents eternal life, 

203
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,300
he's talks about it from a 
kingdom perspective. 

204
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,900
In fact, when he preaches, he 
says, the Kingdom of Heaven is 

205
00:14:48,900 --> 00:14:50,400
like this. 
And the kingdom of God is like 

206
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,500
that. 
Come on. 

207
00:14:52,500 --> 00:14:55,600
Y'all with me? 
I mean, let's look at John 3:3 

208
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,100
says this. 
Jesus answered truly, truly, I 

209
00:14:59,100 --> 00:15:01,600
say to you. 
Unless one is born again, he 

210
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:08,500
cannot see the kingdom, notice 
he doesn't say, And John 3:3 

211
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:13,000
unless a woman unless one is 
born again, he shall not inherit

212
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:17,100
eternal life. 
Or Jesus doesn't say in John 

213
00:15:17,100 --> 00:15:21,200
3:3, truly, truly, I say to you.
Unless one is born again, he 

214
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:26,500
cannot live in heaven forever. 
He doesn't say that what he says

215
00:15:26,500 --> 00:15:31,400
is, he says, unless you and I'm 
at The New American Standard, 

216
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:35,300
guys, not th the passion, he 
says, truly, truly I say, unless

217
00:15:35,300 --> 00:15:40,200
one is born again, he shall not 
enter our see the kingdom 

218
00:15:41,500 --> 00:15:46,800
because as long as we have a 
destination mentality, then we 

219
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:55,200
will avoid responsibility. 
And the minute we reduce Jesus 

220
00:15:55,200 --> 00:16:00,800
to his Saving Grace. 
And I don't want to go to hell, 

221
00:16:01,300 --> 00:16:06,700
then we won't receive the 
benefits of a kingdom Lifestyle 

222
00:16:06,700 --> 00:16:12,800
on the Earth today. 
In essence, we will in all 

223
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:17,600
honesty. 
Well, want to receive his 

224
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:25,500
payment but we really don't want
to follow his bidding until we 

225
00:16:25,500 --> 00:16:31,500
go to heaven, okay? 
I would love to say this isn't 

226
00:16:31,500 --> 00:16:35,100
true, but unfortunately, there's
too many Believers that aren't 

227
00:16:35,100 --> 00:16:45,300
actually following Jesus daily. 
And Jesus never said, come and 

228
00:16:45,300 --> 00:16:50,000
be a Christian. 
He actually said come follow me 

229
00:16:51,100 --> 00:16:53,400
so I loved about Pastor John 
George. 

230
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,000
When he came we have some 
comment he said I never call 

231
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,500
myself a Christian anymore. 
I'm done with that you said cuz 

232
00:16:59,500 --> 00:17:04,200
it so watered down and not even 
truth because again in the 

233
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,900
Scriptures it we were only 
called Christians twice and one 

234
00:17:07,900 --> 00:17:10,800
time the first time it 
Christians were even mentioned 

235
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:15,000
War by lost people. 
So they gave the label. 

236
00:17:15,599 --> 00:17:18,800
Not even God, Jesus said, come 
follow me. 

237
00:17:19,300 --> 00:17:22,800
So he says, I tell people, I'm a
follower of Christ. 

238
00:17:25,099 --> 00:17:28,800
And a follower of Christ is 
different from most professing 

239
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:32,400
Christians. 
Okay, because most profession 

240
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:43,300
Christians want eternal life. 
Following is different Jesus 

241
00:17:43,300 --> 00:17:47,100
says, well if I'm lord it's a 
little bit more than where you 

242
00:17:47,100 --> 00:17:54,100
going to go when you die, 
because if it was just, just 

243
00:17:54,100 --> 00:17:59,900
keep the command, right? 
Well, you do it, you got it and 

244
00:17:59,900 --> 00:18:02,800
I'll see you when you get there.
What he exposed was. 

245
00:18:03,100 --> 00:18:10,500
It's not about living my Are my 
moral judgement on your terms. 

246
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:17,100
And even though you desire to do
them because you know, it's 

247
00:18:17,100 --> 00:18:20,000
right. 
The problem is it was always 

248
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:25,200
about submitting to me as your 
Lord that I should have the 

249
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:30,100
right at any time to say 
anything and you would say yes 

250
00:18:30,100 --> 00:18:35,000
Lord. 
Yes. 

251
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:36,800
Lord. 
Yes. 

252
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,800
Lord. 
Yes Lord. 

253
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,600
Yes Lord. 
Yes Lord. 

254
00:18:41,900 --> 00:18:46,700
Yes, Lord. 
Yes Lord, yes Lord because 

255
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:50,500
saying Lord has to have 
following behind it. 

256
00:18:52,100 --> 00:18:55,800
Because many actually say Lord 
Jesus but don't actually treat 

257
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,800
him as Lord. 
Now, you know, we've said this 

258
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:03,300
in the past savior is is what 
Jesus did. 

259
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:08,100
Lord is who he is. 
If Adam had never eaten the 

260
00:19:08,100 --> 00:19:13,100
fruit and sin never enter the 
world, then Jesus never would 

261
00:19:13,100 --> 00:19:20,000
have come as a man in the flesh.
But Jesus has always been Lord. 

262
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,400
Jesus in heaven has always been 
in Authority. 

263
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:29,900
He's part of the godhead. 
He's already exercises. 

264
00:19:29,900 --> 00:19:34,800
The thought he emptied himself 
of that and became a man because

265
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:39,400
Adam lost the Dominion. 
That God gave man in Genesis 

266
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,300
chapter one. 
So, Jesus didn't come to restore

267
00:19:42,300 --> 00:19:45,000
Heaven because Adam wasn't in 
heaven. 

268
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:53,000
He came to restore rulership 
from an and at the end of the 

269
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:57,100
day, rulership is what you are 
created for. 

270
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:03,000
I said it's what your created 
for to be like God in rulership 

271
00:20:03,500 --> 00:20:07,600
and Jesus knows you're not going
to be able to rule unless you 

272
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:12,900
understand the kingdom. 
This is not just about eternal 

273
00:20:12,900 --> 00:20:15,300
life. 
This is why I made this 

274
00:20:15,300 --> 00:20:16,800
statement is. 
Sometimes it gets people very 

275
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:18,800
uncomfortable, which I don't 
understand why. 

276
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,800
Because again, if they just read
their Bible wouldn't have this 

277
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,700
problem. 
But Heavens byproduct of being 

278
00:20:23,700 --> 00:20:29,100
born again, it's not the goal. 
It's what happens to you because

279
00:20:29,100 --> 00:20:32,000
you're in Christ, and your name 
has been written in the Lamb's 

280
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,700
Book of Life. 
And now you're a citizen right 

281
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,300
of God's kingdom. 
And for time, you will transfer 

282
00:20:38,300 --> 00:20:40,800
to heaven, but we will come 
back. 

283
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,100
Just read the back of the book. 
Amen. 

284
00:20:43,700 --> 00:20:45,800
Because, you know, many say, 
read the back of the book we 

285
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,000
win, but they haven't actually 
read the back of the book, but 

286
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,500
if you read the back of the 
book, they'll know we come back.

287
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,500
Hallelujah. 
Amen. 

288
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,100
And again, God is going to be 
here. 

289
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:05,200
I said God's going to be here. 
So we then need to make sure 

290
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,600
when we say Lord, we're living 
Lord. 

291
00:21:09,700 --> 00:21:15,600
And not really living savior. 
Because savior, a lot of times 

292
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:20,600
people who really just love 
Jesus Savior, make lordship the 

293
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,100
option. 
Which then puts a lot of things 

294
00:21:24,100 --> 00:21:27,400
in question. 
In general. 

295
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,600
And I'm not here to judge that. 
God ultimately will. 

296
00:21:32,500 --> 00:21:37,700
But I can tell you how you can 
be confident and secure in your 

297
00:21:37,700 --> 00:21:42,500
salvation is when he's Lord of 
your life and you actually 

298
00:21:42,500 --> 00:21:48,000
follow him while you're here. 
Amen. 

299
00:21:48,900 --> 00:21:51,800
How do I know this? 
Look at Luke 6:46 y'all doing. 

300
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:55,500
All right? 
Luke 6:46 is a why do you call 

301
00:21:55,500 --> 00:21:57,500
me? 
And this is Jesus talking Lord, 

302
00:21:57,500 --> 00:21:59,200
Lord, and you do not do what I 
say. 

303
00:22:01,100 --> 00:22:03,800
So what is Jesus doing here? 
Now again I can hear the 

304
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:05,600
religious right now. 
I can hear them. 

305
00:22:05,900 --> 00:22:07,800
They're like, well, not enough 
people were born again. 

306
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,100
They really I mean, they could 
say Lord, but he wasn't really 

307
00:22:10,300 --> 00:22:16,200
Lord is, is reduced to the 
following definition that Jesus 

308
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,500
defined it as If you're calling 
me, Lord. 

309
00:22:20,900 --> 00:22:24,400
You'll do what I say. 
Because he says, why do you call

310
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,000
me? 
Lord, Lord, and do not do what I

311
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,100
say. 
So we could say it this way, you

312
00:22:29,100 --> 00:22:31,700
call me, Lord Lord, and do what 
I say. 

313
00:22:34,300 --> 00:22:36,800
So you can't say I'm Lord and 
not do what I say. 

314
00:22:37,300 --> 00:22:38,800
Well, I asked him to come to my 
heart and save me. 

315
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,000
When I die go to heaven but as 
far as you know, following the 

316
00:22:41,008 --> 00:22:43,800
Lord, you know and you know 
taking the Bible. 

317
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:48,400
Seriously that's a little 
extreme, right? 

318
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,800
Your extreme. 
I mean you're like you don't 

319
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,200
even you don't even want to make
a decision unless you talk to 

320
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:56,400
Lord. 
I'm not talking about what 

321
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:57,700
jacket. 
I wore less the Lord told me. 

322
00:22:57,708 --> 00:23:00,400
Don't wear something and that 
can't happen. 

323
00:23:00,500 --> 00:23:03,100
The Lord can't actually talk to 
you about your clothes. 

324
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,700
There's nothing off limits. 
Amen. 

325
00:23:07,900 --> 00:23:10,800
At the end of the day, you know,
I'm not going in a close. 

326
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,300
Say, what underwear do I put on 
today, Lord, and it's all 

327
00:23:13,300 --> 00:23:17,300
spiritual. 
You know, but I'm putting it on.

328
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,700
It's what I'm saying. 
I'm putting on clothes at the 

329
00:23:20,700 --> 00:23:22,700
end of the day. 
Why did I pick out this outfit? 

330
00:23:22,700 --> 00:23:25,600
Because I went on YouTube today 
and I'm like, what? 

331
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,500
I've been wearing the last few 
weeks, but you don't put the 

332
00:23:28,500 --> 00:23:30,200
same combination because I 
actually had another. 

333
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:34,600
I, um, I'll fit in mind, and 
when I went online, I realized I

334
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:38,600
wore that for weeks ago, same 
one, so, I'm going to mix it up 

335
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:42,900
a little bit, I don't remember, 
what combinations. 

336
00:23:42,900 --> 00:23:44,300
I have a hard enough time 
anyway. 

337
00:23:44,300 --> 00:23:46,900
I really need man. 
Jeans in my closet so they have 

338
00:23:46,900 --> 00:23:51,300
pre laid out outfits, right? 
Uh, you know, we really should 

339
00:23:51,300 --> 00:23:54,300
have grranimals for adults. 
Now, some of y'all know what I'm

340
00:23:54,308 --> 00:23:56,400
talking about. 
Some you have no idea what I'm 

341
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,800
talking about. 
So for those who don't know what

342
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:03,300
I'm talking about, When Society 
was highly challenged in their 

343
00:24:03,300 --> 00:24:07,100
fashion, there was a company 
that would try to help you match

344
00:24:07,100 --> 00:24:11,100
clothes, especially parents with
their kids and it was all for 

345
00:24:11,100 --> 00:24:16,200
kids clothes and there will be 
animals on the clothing tags. 

346
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:21,600
And if you match the animals, 
then basically it matched, It's 

347
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:25,000
got a foolproof I needed that I 
still need that. 

348
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,200
I still need that. 
Right? 

349
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:31,100
So for me, I go through you like
my Instagram feed, I always get 

350
00:24:31,100 --> 00:24:34,300
men's clothing show up and I'm 
like, I would wear that I mean, 

351
00:24:34,300 --> 00:24:37,400
why cause they did all the work 
but if I walk into Marshalls, 

352
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:41,300
it's a nightmare. 
I mean there's so many clothes 

353
00:24:41,300 --> 00:24:43,500
all over the place. 
Like I mean Maher said you find 

354
00:24:43,500 --> 00:24:44,300
anything. 
Nothing. 

355
00:24:44,300 --> 00:24:47,000
There's nothing here for me, 
there's never anything for me, 

356
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:48,500
why? 
Cuz I don't know how to piece 

357
00:24:48,500 --> 00:24:52,700
that when my closet my wife, 
she'll come in, pull this and do

358
00:24:52,700 --> 00:24:54,100
that. 
And they say she got ten outfits

359
00:24:54,100 --> 00:24:56,900
off of three pieces of clothing.
It's amazing. 

360
00:24:57,300 --> 00:24:59,700
You know, I'm like wow, how did 
you? 

361
00:24:59,700 --> 00:25:03,100
How did you even remember that 
was even in your closet, right? 

362
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:09,900
Anyway, Lord is because we 
follow. 

363
00:25:12,300 --> 00:25:14,500
And Jesus said, now some of 
y'all saying Lord Lord, but 

364
00:25:14,500 --> 00:25:18,400
you're not doing what I say. 
He goes on and even says this. 

365
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:23,400
Just so, you understand what I 
mean by what he says because 

366
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:27,000
this verse here is much like the
Rich Young Ruler of what the 

367
00:25:27,008 --> 00:25:29,600
Rich Young Ruler of boast. 
He said I've kept all those 

368
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:31,900
commands since I was a child. 
You know what? 

369
00:25:31,900 --> 00:25:35,400
Jesus did not rebuke him and say
you've not honored your mother 

370
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:41,200
and father you've not with held 
yourself from adultery. 

371
00:25:41,700 --> 00:25:44,600
You've not not killed. 
She never said that. 

372
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:46,400
He said, yeah, but there's one 
thing. 

373
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,700
You lack. 
I know you're doing it. 

374
00:25:49,100 --> 00:25:52,900
I know you're doing those 
things. but you're not doing 

375
00:25:52,900 --> 00:26:01,200
them because I say, okay, so 
there are things we can do in 

376
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:05,200
the name of Jesus. 
From a self. 

377
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:10,400
And get a result. 
I'm going to show you in a 

378
00:26:10,408 --> 00:26:13,000
minute. 
All right, look what it says 

379
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,300
here. 
Matthew 7:21-23. 

380
00:26:15,300 --> 00:26:20,900
It says this not everyone who 
says to me, Lord Lord will enter

381
00:26:20,900 --> 00:26:25,800
the kingdom of heaven. 
But he who does the will of my 

382
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:27,900
father who is in heaven, will 
enter. 

383
00:26:27,900 --> 00:26:30,900
Now, notice you don't have to be
in heaven for that to happen. 

384
00:26:32,300 --> 00:26:34,800
All you have to do is do the 
will of his father. 

385
00:26:37,300 --> 00:26:40,500
Amen. 
Okay, he says, many will say, to

386
00:26:40,500 --> 00:26:43,500
me, on that day. 
Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy 

387
00:26:43,500 --> 00:26:47,100
in your name, and in your name, 
cast out demons, and in your 

388
00:26:47,100 --> 00:26:55,400
name, perform miracles. 
So why are they prophesying in 

389
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:59,100
his name? 
Why are they cast out devils in 

390
00:26:59,100 --> 00:27:01,700
his name? 
Why are they performing 

391
00:27:01,700 --> 00:27:06,900
miracles? 
Call Jesus says in 23 and then I

392
00:27:06,908 --> 00:27:13,000
will declare to them. 
I never knew you depart from me,

393
00:27:13,700 --> 00:27:21,300
you, who practice lawlessness? 
Now lawlessness, is that I don't

394
00:27:21,300 --> 00:27:26,000
do what he says, but I'm a 
believer, I'm saved, and I'm 

395
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,100
anointed, and I'm going to work 
this anointing. 

396
00:27:29,500 --> 00:27:39,600
So that people will notice me. 
All right, it's quiet. 

397
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,400
I mean, I didn't know, I went to
the cemetery this morning. 

398
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,300
Amen. 
Pastor just preach something 

399
00:27:47,300 --> 00:27:51,600
happy I tried. 
I said let's do Joy today cuz I 

400
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,100
was want some Joy this morning. 
I'm like, ha ha. 

401
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,300
You know, let's just talk about 
the joy of the Lord but at the 

402
00:27:57,308 --> 00:27:58,700
end of the day I'll get to call 
it. 

403
00:27:59,900 --> 00:28:02,800
Amen. 
And we have water baptism today.

404
00:28:04,300 --> 00:28:07,000
And whoever is baptized, is 
saying he's Lord. 

405
00:28:08,900 --> 00:28:11,400
And I'm telling you right now, 
we're in an epidemic right now 

406
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:15,400
in the church because we are not
following Jesus. 

407
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,900
We just want to go to heaven 
when we die. 

408
00:28:19,500 --> 00:28:22,200
In fact, many of us want Jesus 
to come now. 

409
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:27,400
So we can avoid conflict. 
Well, the Redemption draws nigh.

410
00:28:27,500 --> 00:28:28,900
I get it. 
And, you know what? 

411
00:28:28,900 --> 00:28:32,800
I'm not here to stop Jesus, but 
at the other side, I'm not here 

412
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:37,900
to rush him because I want to do
what he's called me to do. 

413
00:28:37,900 --> 00:28:40,300
And at the end of the day, the 
greater ones on the inside of 

414
00:28:40,300 --> 00:28:42,200
me, I don't care how bad the 
world gets. 

415
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,400
Because scripture has told me, 
what can man do to me? 

416
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:52,300
Scripture has told me that the 
greater ones on the inside of 

417
00:28:52,300 --> 00:28:53,900
me. 
The scriptures told me to Gates 

418
00:28:53,900 --> 00:28:55,900
of Hell, cannot Prevail against 
the church. 

419
00:28:55,900 --> 00:28:58,900
The scriptures told me that I 
could drink deadly poison and it

420
00:28:58,908 --> 00:29:03,100
won't even harm me. 
Are you hearing me? 

421
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:04,800
I'll go around drinking daily, 
please. 

422
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:10,100
I'm just saying. 
At the end of the day, God has 

423
00:29:10,100 --> 00:29:15,500
placed Us in the earth anointed 
of God with the name of Jesus in

424
00:29:15,500 --> 00:29:17,700
Christ. 
And I'm not like, woo. 

425
00:29:17,700 --> 00:29:20,400
Can't wait to get somewhere. 
I'm like bring it on down. 

426
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,700
Keep demonstrating. 
Show yourself and especially as 

427
00:29:22,700 --> 00:29:25,900
bad as the world's getting Lord.
Continue to allow our influence 

428
00:29:25,900 --> 00:29:29,100
to grow because the world surely
needs to see and know that Jesus

429
00:29:29,100 --> 00:29:33,200
Christ is Lord. 
But the first way he knows their

430
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:36,100
lord. 
The number one way the world 

431
00:29:36,100 --> 00:29:40,300
will know that he's Lord is not 
miracles signs and wonders. 

432
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:46,000
It's not prophesying and as not 
even casting out Devils. 

433
00:29:46,500 --> 00:29:49,900
Jesus said, the world will know 
that you are mine. 

434
00:29:50,700 --> 00:29:55,800
He called you a disciple then 
because of your love for one 

435
00:29:55,800 --> 00:30:01,400
another. 
So Jesus, like I got these cats 

436
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:04,700
running around in my name 
prophesied casting out devils 

437
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,100
and Performing Miracles, but 
they don't love each other. 

438
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:11,900
They don't want to come to 
church, don't want to submit. 

439
00:30:11,900 --> 00:30:14,800
And when I had her on a personal
Ministries, right? 

440
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:15,900
They want to get groups over 
there. 

441
00:30:15,900 --> 00:30:24,700
Sending prophesied s called 
Seance little personal word here

442
00:30:24,700 --> 00:30:28,700
in a personal word there. 
Valdosta. 

443
00:30:28,700 --> 00:30:33,200
We had somebody fly come in hot 
off the road want to try to 

444
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:37,500
prophesy over Pastor Mark, 
Pastor barks, like nice to see 

445
00:30:37,500 --> 00:30:42,900
you and went on and they kept 
coming well because there's 

446
00:30:42,900 --> 00:30:46,500
really God there. 
Then Joshua actually had a word 

447
00:30:46,500 --> 00:30:53,600
for them. 
A word from God and released it.

448
00:30:54,900 --> 00:30:57,600
But it had words like this 
commit. 

449
00:30:58,500 --> 00:31:07,900
Submit Learn be trained because 
the gift. 

450
00:31:07,900 --> 00:31:10,100
They thought they had the 
Lord's. 

451
00:31:10,100 --> 00:31:12,800
Like yes. 
But it only comes out this way 

452
00:31:13,300 --> 00:31:16,100
and if they don't do that, then 
they moms will put another 

453
00:31:16,100 --> 00:31:22,200
Title. 
One front faults Because there's

454
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:26,400
many that have a gift but get 
false. 

455
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:30,200
Put on the front because they 
can't commit to a local body 

456
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:32,800
church and submit to their 
pastor. 

457
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:38,600
Okay, hallelujah. 
Amen. 

458
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:44,100
So Jesus like, I mean, you won't
the world like, just just 

459
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,200
contagious. 
I mean like they're just running

460
00:31:47,300 --> 00:31:49,900
to the church. 
Start loving each other. 

461
00:31:50,700 --> 00:31:53,300
But yet, what do we typically do
we cry where some miracle sign 

462
00:31:53,300 --> 00:31:55,600
we need this. 
So people know, they just need 

463
00:31:55,600 --> 00:32:00,100
to walk into an atmosphere of 
the god, kind of love, but the 

464
00:32:00,100 --> 00:32:01,900
god kind of love in its 
fullness. 

465
00:32:01,900 --> 00:32:04,000
That's why Paul kept praying 
that it would abound more and 

466
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,300
more He's like, listen. 
The only way that is going to 

467
00:32:06,300 --> 00:32:09,900
get to its fullness because 
again, the whole premise of 

468
00:32:09,900 --> 00:32:13,900
Ephesians chapter 4, and God 
gave gifts unto men, that's 

469
00:32:13,900 --> 00:32:16,800
everybody verse 8 and he jumped 
in verse 11, he said, and some 

470
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:21,200
he gave as which is the fivefold
ministry, Apostles, prophets 

471
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,100
pastors, teachers, and 
evangelist for the equipping of 

472
00:32:24,100 --> 00:32:28,100
the Saints, for the work of 
service to build them up while 

473
00:32:28,100 --> 00:32:30,900
so they're not tossed to and fro
by every wind of Doctrine. 

474
00:32:30,900 --> 00:32:34,000
You know, acting crazy and 
carnal, but they're becoming 

475
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:34,800
mature. 
Ur. 

476
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:38,500
So that they could grow to the 
fullness and building up the 

477
00:32:38,500 --> 00:32:46,500
body, verse 16 in love. 
What Love guitar? 

478
00:32:46,500 --> 00:32:49,600
God, Kind of Love is always 
hindered as long as someone has 

479
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:54,500
a selfish ambition. 
Has a personal motivation? 

480
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,200
When's my time. 
When am I gonna get how about 

481
00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,300
this? 
This is not Union. 

482
00:33:02,500 --> 00:33:06,500
This is fruit. 
I said it's fruit. 

483
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,600
I cannot tell you how many times
I'm like man I want to use and 

484
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:13,800
then they blow it and you're 
like, ah, Wow. 

485
00:33:15,300 --> 00:33:18,700
I don't know, you can do, they 
did it themselves. 

486
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:24,100
I can't tell you how many times 
I've considered things and then 

487
00:33:24,100 --> 00:33:31,500
some happen and they went to And
you're like, man, jeez, they're 

488
00:33:31,500 --> 00:33:36,900
showing their just not ready. 
And all the while, you know the 

489
00:33:36,900 --> 00:33:38,500
what the devil does, the Devil 
comes in. 

490
00:33:38,500 --> 00:33:42,500
He says, well they're not going 
to use you, they won't know. 

491
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,200
You have no money. 
You have no idea how many times,

492
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:52,200
God brought your name up, but 
then you and that place, you 

493
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:59,200
have to be different. 
You have to have whip that to be

494
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:03,400
there. 
Not every place in the body. 

495
00:34:04,900 --> 00:34:10,000
Allows you. 
Or Ford you certain mistakes. 

496
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,500
You said that's not true. 
Some are saying that I'm glad 

497
00:34:14,500 --> 00:34:17,500
you said it was because at the 
end of the day, there was a 

498
00:34:17,507 --> 00:34:22,400
mistake Moses made and it did 
not afford him because he says 

499
00:34:22,699 --> 00:34:26,800
son, you've been face-to-face 
with me and you're gonna hit the

500
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,800
rock twice and not do what I 
say. 

501
00:34:29,900 --> 00:34:33,600
It was a say issue that was a 
say issue, just speak to the 

502
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:37,300
Rock. 
Water still came out, didn't I? 

503
00:34:37,500 --> 00:34:40,800
And your name, would your staff 
Shrek? 

504
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:42,900
The Rock didn't water, not come 
out. 

505
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:46,699
I didn't say to do that. 
I said speak to it and its cost 

506
00:34:46,699 --> 00:34:48,699
you now you don't get delete 
them in. 

507
00:34:51,199 --> 00:34:52,400
I said you don't get delete them
in. 

508
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,500
So you can't sit here and think 
that everybody in the body of 

509
00:34:55,500 --> 00:34:59,500
Christ, we all have equality, 
but not every fit that we have 

510
00:34:59,500 --> 00:35:02,300
is equal. 
In fact, Jesus even said, now 

511
00:35:02,300 --> 00:35:04,900
those that want to be teachers 
are called into particular. 

512
00:35:05,100 --> 00:35:08,800
There's there's double honor but
then he says they are judged 

513
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:14,200
double as well. 
Which mean why do I get double 

514
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:17,900
now while you doubling up on me?
How come I'm getting scrutinize 

515
00:35:17,900 --> 00:35:19,600
more? 
How come you being a double 

516
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:21,800
micromanager of everything that 
I say now? 

517
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:26,200
Well because you're teaching 
people, I've given 

518
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:30,300
responsibility and access about 
things that I need to and if you

519
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:36,400
I'm holding you accountable. 
Are you hearing me? 

520
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,600
So you got to get rid of it. 
So acknowledging, God only with 

521
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:43,700
our lips and not with our lives.
Have dangerous consequences. 

522
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:49,100
Dangerous, right? 
The Lord is to be followed not 

523
00:35:49,100 --> 00:35:55,100
just acknowledged. 
Not to just be acknowledged. 

524
00:35:56,500 --> 00:36:00,400
Hallelujah. 
Thank you, Jesus. 

525
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:14,800
How do we avoid this encounter 
with god? 

526
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:19,500
Well, is how he got in the 
answer? 

527
00:36:20,300 --> 00:36:23,200
Look at Romans 10:9. 
And 13 through 13. 

528
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:30,300
He said that if you confess with
your mouth, Jesus as Wow, I am 

529
00:36:30,300 --> 00:36:34,500
in a cemetery that if you 
confess with your mouth Jesus as

530
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,300
and believe in your heart, that 
God raised him from the dead, 

531
00:36:38,300 --> 00:36:44,000
you will be so you're not saved.
If he's not Lord. 

532
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:53,300
Okay. 
Now, I am not saying that at 

533
00:36:53,300 --> 00:36:56,300
somebody who doesn't know, 
anything comes out and realize, 

534
00:36:56,300 --> 00:36:57,700
Jesus died on the cross and Rose
from the grave. 

535
00:36:57,700 --> 00:36:59,800
They believe that with the heart
and they say Jesus, your lord of

536
00:36:59,808 --> 00:37:02,100
my life, which is the first time
you make the statement. 

537
00:37:02,100 --> 00:37:05,200
Okay, that you're not saved, 
obviously you're saved but 

538
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:07,500
here's the problem. 
We have taken saved to one 

539
00:37:07,500 --> 00:37:11,800
event. 
And the Bible never included 

540
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:17,400
save to be at one event. 
Saved from Eternal damnation. 

541
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:21,900
And the penalty of rebellion is 
one act of saving. 

542
00:37:25,100 --> 00:37:30,100
Another saving God will do is 
save you from dying of cancer. 

543
00:37:31,900 --> 00:37:35,100
Are leukemia or any disease for 
that matter. 

544
00:37:35,500 --> 00:37:38,000
You know what else he'll do? 
He'll save your marriage. 

545
00:37:41,300 --> 00:37:47,400
Right, he'll save your job. 
I mean, there's all kinds of say

546
00:37:47,500 --> 00:37:52,700
he'll save your mind as you 
participate because there's a 

547
00:37:52,700 --> 00:37:57,300
saving of the soul and you have 
to participate but he'll save 

548
00:37:57,300 --> 00:37:59,800
it. 
Are you hearing me? 

549
00:38:00,100 --> 00:38:03,600
So again, what this is saying, 
is, if we confess with our 

550
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:05,600
mouth, this is not a one-time 
event. 

551
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,700
If we confess with my mouth, 
Jesus as Lord, believe in our 

552
00:38:08,700 --> 00:38:11,800
heart that God raised him from 
the dead, you will be saved that

553
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:17,200
principle applies. 
Always But if I'll confess Jesus

554
00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:20,900
is Lord, your lord of my 
situation and confess me supreme

555
00:38:20,900 --> 00:38:25,600
authority. 
Okay, it's a supreme authority. 

556
00:38:25,700 --> 00:38:27,800
That's what Lord means, supreme 
authority. 

557
00:38:27,900 --> 00:38:31,300
So this statement confess with 
your mouth, literally means make

558
00:38:31,300 --> 00:38:34,800
a covenant with your mouth that 
Jesus is supreme authority. 

559
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,000
It makes a covenant. 
Now I have to explain Covenant 

560
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:41,100
here in a minute, okay? 
But it means you're establishing

561
00:38:41,100 --> 00:38:45,300
that he's supreme authority and 
you believed because of his 

562
00:38:45,300 --> 00:38:48,600
death burial, Resurrection. 
Then no matter what I face, he 

563
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:54,000
has an answer to save me in it. 
Because he'll save me from all 

564
00:38:54,100 --> 00:38:56,200
my truck. 
You don't have just one trouble.

565
00:38:56,500 --> 00:38:58,300
Well I'm gonna go to hell when I
die, that's one trouble. 

566
00:38:58,300 --> 00:39:01,400
I know you ain't got just one, 
there's a lot of trouble out 

567
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:06,900
there and the good news is you 
can overcome them all, but 

568
00:39:06,900 --> 00:39:11,300
you're not if he's not Supreme 
in authority on how you move 

569
00:39:11,300 --> 00:39:15,400
towards it because he's the 
righteousness of that situation.

570
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:18,600
He goes on and says, for with 
the heart of person believes 

571
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:20,900
resulting in righteousness. 
And when the mighty can Mouth, 

572
00:39:20,900 --> 00:39:22,900
he confesses, resulting in 
Salvation. 

573
00:39:23,100 --> 00:39:26,100
For the scripture says, who 
believes in him, will not be 

574
00:39:26,100 --> 00:39:27,800
disappointed. 
For there is no distinction 

575
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:31,100
between Jew or Greek, right? 
For he's the same Lord, he's the

576
00:39:31,100 --> 00:39:35,500
same Lord, he's the same Lord, 
for the same Lord is Lord of all

577
00:39:35,500 --> 00:39:40,600
abounding in riches, for all who
call on him, for whoever will 

578
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:44,700
call on the name of the Lord 
will be saved. 

579
00:39:44,700 --> 00:39:47,700
And there's not a situation I 
get in cuz he is Lord of my life

580
00:39:47,700 --> 00:39:50,500
that I can't call on his name 
and he saved me. 

581
00:39:52,900 --> 00:39:56,200
I said, he saves me and man. 
I'm in situations. 

582
00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:01,100
I mean, meant most, I don't even
the majority of situations I get

583
00:40:01,100 --> 00:40:08,500
in or never self-inflicted. 
They're externally coming 

584
00:40:08,500 --> 00:40:12,200
towards me. 
And then part of it is just 

585
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:17,500
under Shepherd of his church. 
I'm the guy in the Earth. 

586
00:40:18,500 --> 00:40:22,100
That's helping God. 
Build his church. 

587
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:25,600
So there's things that come 
against his church and he said 

588
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:27,600
now listen, they gonna hate you 
because they hated me. 

589
00:40:28,500 --> 00:40:32,000
So again, it's nothing personal.
They're really after Jesus. 

590
00:40:32,300 --> 00:40:36,200
Even though they're using my 
name, you really have promised 

591
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:37,200
Jesus. 
Not me. 

592
00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:38,800
Okay, even though you're using 
my name. 

593
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,800
So if you make a covenant with 
your mouth that Jesus is supreme

594
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:45,900
in Authority. 
Okay. 

595
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:50,300
Now, cousin it, let me say it 
this way. 

596
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:55,300
We have the old And the New 
Testament, right? 

597
00:40:55,500 --> 00:40:58,800
Okay, that's typically. 
How is in the Bible now for all 

598
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:02,200
of us Testament would be a 
witness, right? 

599
00:41:02,300 --> 00:41:06,100
And that's typically how we, you
know, structure that there's an 

600
00:41:06,100 --> 00:41:08,900
Old Testament and then there's a
new testament, you know, our new

601
00:41:08,900 --> 00:41:13,900
testimony or whatever, but 
actually it's really old 

602
00:41:13,900 --> 00:41:17,100
Covenant. 
And New Covenant. 

603
00:41:17,900 --> 00:41:21,100
So what we've done is we've 
forgotten that this is Covenant 

604
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:26,300
and we at like it's testimony. 
Well I'm in the new testimony. 

605
00:41:27,500 --> 00:41:29,900
Right. 
Well, test him. 

606
00:41:29,900 --> 00:41:33,100
It is. 
What was written out, that's new

607
00:41:33,100 --> 00:41:36,400
and better than the old and it's
Covenant. 

608
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:38,600
Now here's the thing about 
Covenant coven. 

609
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:42,800
It is a legal binding agreement 
between two parties. 

610
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:46,100
Now, the middle is a legal that 
becomes a buzzword for people. 

611
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:50,100
I'll split them. 
There's a tall girl and that's 

612
00:41:50,100 --> 00:41:53,200
not the love of God. 
That is not the love of God. 

613
00:41:55,300 --> 00:41:57,800
You know, under the law, you're 
under the law, you're under the 

614
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:04,800
law. 
Okay, so Ima give you a case in 

615
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:12,300
point. 
So you have someone in your 

616
00:42:12,300 --> 00:42:16,700
life. 
That has come to you and says 

617
00:42:16,700 --> 00:42:20,400
man, I really love you. 
I appreciate you so much. 

618
00:42:21,300 --> 00:42:25,700
And listen, I'm going to provide
for you and your kids, your 

619
00:42:25,700 --> 00:42:27,700
family. 
I mean, Generations. 

620
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:33,700
Okay, I have all this wealth All
this property. 

621
00:42:35,100 --> 00:42:38,100
Soma and you're like, what? 
You know that they have all of 

622
00:42:38,100 --> 00:42:40,400
it in a, we can name some names 
right now and you would think, 

623
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:42,100
yeah, they're billionaires, 
right? 

624
00:42:42,100 --> 00:42:47,500
You would say that have all this
and and because I love you so 

625
00:42:47,500 --> 00:42:50,300
much, I'm going to give it to 
you and then they die. 

626
00:42:51,300 --> 00:42:56,000
Now, what's your expectation? 
you're going to get it prom, is 

627
00:42:56,000 --> 00:43:00,800
you show up at the court and 
you're like, I taught with so 

628
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:07,200
and so Because they love me. 
We had it. 

629
00:43:07,700 --> 00:43:11,600
We were one-on-one. 
They talked with me, intimately,

630
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:18,300
and so they told me that I could
have access to all this stuff 

631
00:43:18,500 --> 00:43:23,500
and my family for every 
generation Beyond They love me. 

632
00:43:26,100 --> 00:43:28,600
but then, all of a sudden, the 
judge says, well, I have no 

633
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:40,100
documentation that supports that
It's amazing how we want to say.

634
00:43:40,100 --> 00:43:45,100
God's love is without 
documentation. in fact, what you

635
00:43:45,100 --> 00:43:49,100
would do is, you would go to the
Grave And you would look at the 

636
00:43:49,100 --> 00:43:53,000
grave and say you didn't love me
because you didn't put none of 

637
00:43:53,008 --> 00:43:55,500
it in writing. 
Nobody even knows we had that 

638
00:43:55,500 --> 00:43:58,200
conversation and I can't even 
access it. 

639
00:44:01,700 --> 00:44:06,100
Oh no. 
I can't even get none of it. 

640
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:08,800
I mean you talk but who not no 
one knows. 

641
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,700
But if they pulled out says, 
well, it's right here in 

642
00:44:15,700 --> 00:44:17,200
writing. 
Then you're like, man. 

643
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:21,500
They love me so much. 
They made sure I would get it. 

644
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:28,400
Then you're glad it was legal. 
All of a sudden. 

645
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:33,400
Now, we're glad it's legal. 
Oh my God, I have actually. 

646
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:37,300
Can you put that in writing? 
Are you hear me? 

647
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:42,400
I mean, how many you would go to
a home and someone says you can 

648
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:43,500
have it. 
It's yours. 

649
00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:46,100
Oh, great. 
Well, we got any document. 

650
00:44:46,100 --> 00:44:48,000
No, no shush. 
You got my word. 

651
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:54,500
Ride it. 
See, even Jesus said now, 

652
00:44:54,500 --> 00:44:56,600
listen, I'm gonna give you my 
word, but I'm alright, it down 

653
00:44:58,500 --> 00:45:02,300
because it's legal and binding. 
Because this Covenant, that you 

654
00:45:02,300 --> 00:45:07,100
and I are in, not only do you 
hear it in your spirit that God 

655
00:45:07,100 --> 00:45:12,400
said, but then you read it and 
you get to declare it and say 

656
00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:16,600
devil, there's a legal binding 
agreement between me and Jesus 

657
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:21,100
that the stripes he took on his 
back was for eternity to take 

658
00:45:21,300 --> 00:45:23,600
Have any symptom? 
I had my butt so you have no 

659
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:27,300
legal right to actually. 
Come on this property that God 

660
00:45:27,300 --> 00:45:34,000
owns and put sickness on me. 
You've got to go You gotta go, 

661
00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:40,800
you have to go because Jesus 
when he spoke to the devil he 

662
00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:42,500
didn't come and say. 
Let me tell you what I think, 

663
00:45:42,500 --> 00:45:44,700
let me give him out. 
He said it is. 

664
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:48,200
There's a legal binding 
agreement between me and my 

665
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:51,900
father. 
That was penned by Moses and the

666
00:45:51,900 --> 00:45:59,000
prophets. 
You have no legal right to me. 

667
00:46:01,900 --> 00:46:06,300
Oh, you glad it's legal now, 
because you understand love, 

668
00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:15,400
make sure, it covers it, it 
covers any Condition out there 

669
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:23,500
so that you get yours. 
Hallelujah. 

670
00:46:24,100 --> 00:46:26,100
That's why. 
When Believers come up and say, 

671
00:46:26,100 --> 00:46:28,300
well, the Lord told me. 
Well, where is it written. 

672
00:46:30,700 --> 00:46:34,900
Because if it's not in the word,
then it's not legal and binding,

673
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:39,900
you got nothing to stand on. 
Amen. 

674
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,500
I said, amen. 
And we're not getting into the 

675
00:46:43,500 --> 00:46:45,700
fight, right? 
Because we need to realize. 

676
00:46:45,700 --> 00:46:49,300
It's not about going to heaven. 
Anyway, it's about becoming 

677
00:46:49,300 --> 00:46:53,900
children of God. 
See, Lord means supreme 

678
00:46:53,900 --> 00:46:56,400
authority. 
It means to whom a person or 

679
00:46:56,400 --> 00:47:01,400
thing belongs about which he has
power of deciding master or 

680
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:04,800
Lord. 
So it's not a problem for me 

681
00:47:05,100 --> 00:47:10,100
because Jesus is not a dictator.
Jesus is the embodiment of 

682
00:47:10,100 --> 00:47:14,000
selflessness that when he called
me to himself. 

683
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:18,000
He says, I know more about you 
than, you know, about you and I 

684
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:23,000
want to release you In fact, 
Pastor Rod, he said it like this

685
00:47:23,100 --> 00:47:27,000
and Kingdom rise. 
When Jesus brought you to him, 

686
00:47:27,300 --> 00:47:34,900
he introduced you to you. 
Because up to this point, you 

687
00:47:34,900 --> 00:47:37,800
didn't know who you were. 
You didn't realize you were to 

688
00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:40,000
have dominion. 
You didn't realize that you were

689
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:43,300
created, you were to be created 
in the image of God and you were

690
00:47:43,300 --> 00:47:47,100
to be like God and you were able
to you were to rule like God and

691
00:47:47,108 --> 00:47:50,000
you were to take Dominion like 
God and you were to be God's 

692
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,800
child and God's son. 
And it gave you privilege and 

693
00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:56,900
authority and power over all the
works of the Devil. 

694
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:58,500
He's like, come on into the 
house. 

695
00:47:58,500 --> 00:48:00,100
Let me introduce you to 
yourself. 

696
00:48:01,900 --> 00:48:04,800
Let me introduce you to yourself
as Yes, I'm Lord. 

697
00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:07,000
I'll continue to show you who 
you are. 

698
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:13,200
Because if you'll submit to him,
all you're doing is finding 

699
00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:17,300
yourself. 
Because you're in Christ. 

700
00:48:19,500 --> 00:48:23,800
That's why Luke tells us that he
is God's good pleasure to give 

701
00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:27,800
us the kingdom of God, because 
he's like, I'm the king of kings

702
00:48:27,900 --> 00:48:30,400
and you're the small King that 
yields to me. 

703
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:33,900
Because what I say is loving 
life and it pulls the who you 

704
00:48:33,900 --> 00:48:37,300
are out, your purpose, your 
destiny, everything. 

705
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:44,200
All you got to do is let me be 
Lord and Lord is you do what I 

706
00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:47,600
say? 
And when do I do what I? 

707
00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:51,900
He says, not just in heaven. 
I said, now just in heaven. 

708
00:48:52,100 --> 00:48:56,400
Jesus is Holy existed on the 
planet was, I don't do anything.

709
00:48:56,400 --> 00:49:00,800
I'm holding this year, but only 
What I Hear, ah, you mad at me 

710
00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:07,100
cuz I'm doing my daddy's will My
father is my Lord. 

711
00:49:09,700 --> 00:49:12,300
There's not a power trip. 
This is identity. 

712
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:14,700
My wife and I were at a 
restaurant last night and we 

713
00:49:14,700 --> 00:49:19,200
were they've moved us in one 
section that has the bar is, you

714
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:21,900
can't really go anywhere anymore
and not have a bar. 

715
00:49:21,900 --> 00:49:25,100
Even, I mean, I was blown away 
when Cracker Barrel started 

716
00:49:25,100 --> 00:49:27,900
serving alcohol like wow, okay. 
I mean pretty soon, it's going 

717
00:49:27,900 --> 00:49:31,500
to be it, you know, ice cream 
shops anyway. 

718
00:49:32,500 --> 00:49:36,400
So I'm in a huge backdrop, my 
life's like, look at all that 

719
00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:38,500
alcohol. 
I'm like, yeah, I know. 

720
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:43,400
She goes. 
Wow, that's a lot of alcohol. 

721
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:51,100
Yeah, that's a lot of alcohol. 
I said, you know, and nobody's 

722
00:49:51,100 --> 00:49:53,000
drinking it, because it tastes 
good. 

723
00:49:56,300 --> 00:50:00,100
Now you can make a drink and 
then put a little bit in it and 

724
00:50:00,100 --> 00:50:01,800
it mask it. 
So it tastes good. 

725
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:07,700
Like you coffee, drinkers at put
all that junk in it, right? 

726
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:12,000
I get that but I'm trying my 
alcohol itself. 

727
00:50:12,700 --> 00:50:16,100
It's not good unless you train 
yourself. 

728
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:23,200
To acquire a taste. 
Which tells me how does alcohol 

729
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:27,800
even sell them? 
Because it doesn't taste good. 

730
00:50:28,300 --> 00:50:30,500
Beer whiskey. 
None of it. 

731
00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:35,800
I drank once, I know it doesn't.
At all. 

732
00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:42,900
It's image. 
Just look at all the 

733
00:50:42,900 --> 00:50:45,200
commercials. 
They're selling image. 

734
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:50,700
And I told my wife, I said and 
Christians, that drink. 

735
00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:57,500
Have an identity problem. 
Because there's only one reason 

736
00:50:57,500 --> 00:50:59,400
why they're drinking socially 
that. 

737
00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:02,800
Is because they're trying to 
look cool. 

738
00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:08,800
I mean, the the the the world 
doesn't show you the drunkard. 

739
00:51:13,500 --> 00:51:17,700
I mean I'll show it in movies. 
And then weave like made it 

740
00:51:17,700 --> 00:51:21,000
normal like it's okay that a man
would get drunk and beat on his 

741
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:26,000
wife. 
And even though they can show us

742
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:28,400
images of what alcohol really 
does. 

743
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:35,200
Like the Homeless Problem. 
I'm not gonna lie, I'm gonna buy

744
00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:39,100
beer. 
Okay, then I'm not gonna lie, 

745
00:51:39,300 --> 00:51:48,400
I'm not gonna help you. 
Because you want to be broke. 

746
00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:56,500
You want to be like that? 
Hallelujah, its image. 

747
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:02,700
Got the little glasses to look 
cocktails a little pinkies out. 

748
00:52:04,300 --> 00:52:06,800
Try to act all cool. 
It's because I don't know who 

749
00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:08,000
they are in Christ. 
When you know who you are in 

750
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:11,400
Christ, then the new Wind Blows 
it all away. 

751
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:17,500
I mean it's amazing. 
You're like I know who I am and 

752
00:52:17,500 --> 00:52:18,700
there ain't nothin else Goin 
dinner--for. 

753
00:52:18,700 --> 00:52:21,700
I me nothing nothing's going to 
dignify me. 

754
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:26,700
Are you hearing me so is he 
still Lord of your life? 

755
00:52:27,900 --> 00:52:30,100
Or have you reduced him to the 
God? 

756
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:36,600
You are aware of in life. 
How do you know that do you seek

757
00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:42,000
first? 
His See when God ceases to be. 

758
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:45,600
Lord, God. 
And let me tell you, there's not

759
00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:49,700
a person in this room that 
hasn't had that issue after you 

760
00:52:49,700 --> 00:52:51,800
asked Jesus, to be Lord of your 
life. 

761
00:52:53,900 --> 00:52:58,200
There's not a person in this 
room that hasn't had that 

762
00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:01,300
problem. 
How do I know? 

763
00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:06,800
Because when God ceases to be 
the Lord, God then obeying his 

764
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:14,800
word becomes optional. 
Because I know what the Holy 

765
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:18,500
Ghost is saying. 
On the inside, every one of us 

766
00:53:19,400 --> 00:53:24,200
it is written. 
Yeah. 

767
00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:28,400
But yeah, but that hurts man and
I'm just tell you, I ain't doing

768
00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:33,100
that. 
Okay, so I'll seek you second. 

769
00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:37,400
And he says now it is written. 
Yeah, no. 

770
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,700
But you understand there's this 
got this problem here too. 

771
00:53:39,900 --> 00:53:41,600
Oh okay you seek me. 
Third. 

772
00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:47,800
Because you're walking down some
paths that don't include me. 

773
00:53:49,300 --> 00:53:52,200
If you just keep going, it's 
going to not end up. 

774
00:53:52,500 --> 00:53:54,200
It's going to end up a little 
bit different you're thinking 

775
00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:59,000
right now. 
Because I'm supposed to be Lord.

776
00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:03,800
What would it look like if a 
whole congregation? 

777
00:54:04,900 --> 00:54:13,600
Actually obeyed God. 
Now It's yet to be seen. 

778
00:54:18,700 --> 00:54:23,100
Now, let me submit this way a 
congregation that does, it 

779
00:54:23,100 --> 00:54:25,500
doesn't mean everyone will be 
spiritually mature. 

780
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:29,100
And it doesn't mean they're 
there won't be some layers of 

781
00:54:29,100 --> 00:54:39,900
carnality or babes in Christ. 
Because even if they are things 

782
00:54:39,900 --> 00:54:43,800
that God has yet to talk to you 
about in the pruning process of 

783
00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:46,800
your life. 
He let you bear fruit as an 

784
00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:49,100
infant little bit like. 
Wow, that's going good. 

785
00:54:49,100 --> 00:54:51,200
Then he says, okay, now let's 
talk about these things. 

786
00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:54,300
I want to cut that off, didn't 
talk about it initially, right? 

787
00:54:54,500 --> 00:54:56,300
Because you know, I'm dealing 
with your mind. 

788
00:54:56,300 --> 00:55:00,200
Your spirit man is great because
I'm in there and you're like me.

789
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:02,800
So, you know, we went through 
this season, right? 

790
00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:06,000
And you saw how awesome I was, 
and how much I care for you and 

791
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:07,500
all the things I've done. 
This is great. 

792
00:55:07,500 --> 00:55:12,700
Now, I want us to work together.
So, let's cut this. 

793
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:17,600
Yes. 
Lord I hurts. 

794
00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:19,800
I didn't realize that that was a
problem because of all the 

795
00:55:19,808 --> 00:55:23,000
blessings you gave me. 
But if you say at your word, 

796
00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:26,500
then I'll do it. 
Cut. 

797
00:55:26,700 --> 00:55:28,500
We get into the next season. 
Wow. 

798
00:55:28,500 --> 00:55:30,800
There's more fruit now than 
there was last time. 

799
00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:33,600
He's like, man, it is amazing 
and yeah, you know, but there's 

800
00:55:33,600 --> 00:55:37,000
a couple more things I was 
noticing in this last season and

801
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:39,500
I want to talk to you about 
because I love you and I want to

802
00:55:39,500 --> 00:55:41,100
release you. 
I need you to find yourself. 

803
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,800
So let's cut this. 
Well yes! 

804
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:48,700
Lord well yes. 
Lord well yes Lord. 

805
00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:52,700
Well yes Lord. 
Yes Lord. 

806
00:55:54,100 --> 00:55:57,800
Are we reduce ourselves to the 
Rich Young Ruler but there's 

807
00:55:57,800 --> 00:55:58,900
still one thing. 
You lack. 

808
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:00,100
Yeah. 
You can't touch. 

809
00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:06,900
That's mine. 
Identify with that. 

810
00:56:08,300 --> 00:56:10,300
You're trying to mess with a 
part of my identity. 

811
00:56:12,300 --> 00:56:15,200
Jesus saying, you really need to
do Galatians 2:20. 

812
00:56:18,300 --> 00:56:22,200
Galatians 2:20 says, I have been
crucified with Christ and it is 

813
00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:26,300
no longer I who live. 
Now, your spirit Man's Alive to 

814
00:56:26,300 --> 00:56:31,900
God is brand-new but your mind, 
right? 

815
00:56:31,900 --> 00:56:36,500
Your intellect, your reasoning. 
Your emotions that are so well 

816
00:56:36,500 --> 00:56:43,700
trained to live by sight. 
By things they hear and do all 

817
00:56:43,700 --> 00:56:47,000
of a sudden. 
Now he's having to retrain get 

818
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:51,800
you to repent, change your 
thinking Hallelujah. 

819
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:56,500
Why does he give you pastors? 
Because pastors get to keep 

820
00:56:56,500 --> 00:57:02,300
watch. 
Over that realm called you soul.

821
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:06,800
I don't need a pastor, I can 
take care of myself. 

822
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:10,600
No, you can't because you don't 
realize that there's certain 

823
00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:14,200
things you're overlooking. 
And from my vantage point and 

824
00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:18,000
the anointing I'm ready to say, 
you know, we might need a 

825
00:57:18,008 --> 00:57:25,700
Justice. 
I'm noticing a tendency And 

826
00:57:25,700 --> 00:57:29,400
what's the purpose to prune for 
fruit? 

827
00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:38,900
And we already do this in our 
regular sectors of society. 

828
00:57:39,700 --> 00:57:43,100
We let education do it to our 
kids and ourselves. 

829
00:57:43,100 --> 00:57:45,500
Because if any of you went back 
to college, they would tell you 

830
00:57:45,500 --> 00:57:46,900
do this. 
Do this, do this. 

831
00:57:49,500 --> 00:57:51,300
Some of you couldn't write worth
the flip. 

832
00:57:51,300 --> 00:57:53,500
Then you went into English and 
grammar and they told you where 

833
00:57:53,500 --> 00:57:57,700
to put the commas. 
Right. 

834
00:57:57,700 --> 00:58:01,500
You're like, well, I wouldn't 
have done that. 

835
00:58:03,500 --> 00:58:05,300
Are you saying my writings? 
No good. 

836
00:58:05,300 --> 00:58:07,800
Yeah, it stinks, but we can 
improve it. 

837
00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:14,000
So then you subject yourself to 
their instruction and 

838
00:58:14,500 --> 00:58:19,100
correction. 
We do it in sports. 

839
00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:27,700
I mean, it's so many areas what 
we do with our own employers? 

840
00:58:27,700 --> 00:58:29,100
Well, you know, we want to give 
you a promotion, but you're 

841
00:58:29,100 --> 00:58:32,700
going to have to do da da da. 
Okay, yes sir, yes ma'am. 

842
00:58:33,300 --> 00:58:38,200
Wow, well Money Talks, done it 
when he's Lord, you bet he will.

843
00:58:39,500 --> 00:58:42,400
And he does foremost and most 
Christians. 

844
00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:46,400
Because they just want to go to 
heaven when they die. 

845
00:58:47,300 --> 00:58:49,500
Following God is not the purpose
down here. 

846
00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:55,000
But telling everybody ask him to
come in your heart, save you. 

847
00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:58,500
So you get to go to the place 
that I get to go to is what 

848
00:58:58,500 --> 00:59:03,300
they're calling the gospel. 
And that's not the gospel, 

849
00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:09,800
that's the door. 
Jesus did not call it the 

850
00:59:09,808 --> 00:59:11,400
gospel. 
He called it the door. 

851
00:59:13,700 --> 00:59:16,500
I said he called it the door. 
All right. 

852
00:59:17,100 --> 00:59:19,100
He said I've been crucified with
Christ is no longer I who live 

853
00:59:19,100 --> 00:59:23,100
but Christ lives in me and the 
life which I live in the flesh. 

854
00:59:23,100 --> 00:59:26,000
I live by faith and faith comes 
by hearing and hearing from the 

855
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:28,800
word of God. 
In the Son of God, who loved me 

856
00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:31,400
and gave himself up for me. 
Listen to this in the passion 

857
00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:35,200
translation and then if you are 
here for water baptism, I 

858
00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:37,800
release you now to go change. 
One person signed up. 

859
00:59:37,800 --> 00:59:41,000
I don't know who it is, but and 
now, if you're like Pastor 

860
00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:43,300
Earle, I want to do it. 
I didn't That but I'm I'm going 

861
00:59:43,300 --> 00:59:45,200
to do that today. 
I just didn't let you know, then

862
00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:47,200
go leave. 
If you got something changing to

863
00:59:47,500 --> 00:59:51,200
and come back because I want to 
do water baptism, okay with you,

864
00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:53,600
if you're here today and say 
Pastor, I did not sign up. 

865
00:59:53,800 --> 00:59:55,900
Doesn't matter. 
You can be baptized today. 

866
00:59:55,900 --> 00:59:58,500
If you've never followed him 
water baptism and you want to do

867
00:59:58,500 --> 01:00:01,900
that today's your day. 
All you got to do is move and 

868
01:00:01,900 --> 01:00:04,900
will baptize you because what 
you're doing is you're saying, I

869
01:00:04,900 --> 01:00:09,000
am Galatians 2:20. 
And I want everybody to know 

870
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:11,900
that house the passion. 
Say, look at this, this is 

871
01:00:11,900 --> 01:00:13,800
powerful. 
The passion says, my old 

872
01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:17,300
identity is that what is this? 
What you got? 

873
01:00:17,300 --> 01:00:22,000
I got a different TPT. 
Your own verse 9 bro you got to 

874
01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:26,300
go. 
Galatians 2:20 Galatians 2:20. 

875
01:00:26,300 --> 01:00:29,500
I'm like that looks different 
from my Bible right now. 

876
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:34,400
Galatians 2:20. 
Oh, I wait for him and it's 

877
01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:37,400
worth waiting, so you can view 
it with your eyes. 

878
01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:42,600
There you go. 
Ready says my old identity has 

879
01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:49,300
been Co crucified with Messiah 
and no longer lives for the 

880
01:00:49,300 --> 01:00:53,600
nails of his cross crucified me 
with him. 

881
01:00:54,500 --> 01:00:59,500
And now the essence of this, new
life is no longer mine for the 

882
01:00:59,500 --> 01:01:01,600
anointed one. 
Lives his life. 

883
01:01:01,600 --> 01:01:09,400
Through me, we live in Union as 
one my new life is Word Bob, the

884
01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:13,400
faith of the Son of God, who 
loves me so much, that he gave 

885
01:01:13,400 --> 01:01:18,400
himself for me and dispensed his
life into mine. 

886
01:01:21,100 --> 01:01:26,500
Is he Lord? 
Is he Lord, I said he's he Lord.

887
01:01:27,700 --> 01:01:36,200
Do we seek first? 
I would love to tell you the 

888
01:01:36,200 --> 01:01:39,400
longer you've been in church and
the more you've grown in the 

889
01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:43,500
Bible. 
The less. 

890
01:01:46,300 --> 01:01:53,300
You will struggle with 
maintaining him as Lord. 

891
01:01:55,700 --> 01:02:03,200
But that's just not true. 
It's got to be a constant 

892
01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:07,700
decision. 
Daily to crucify self. 

893
01:02:09,300 --> 01:02:11,200
And say it's nothing personal 
flesh. 

894
01:02:12,700 --> 01:02:16,700
But I will follow the lord. 
And sometimes you got to look at

895
01:02:16,700 --> 01:02:22,500
your spouse. 
And your kids and people at work

896
01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:26,400
and says nothing personal but 
I'm just going to do what Jesus 

897
01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:29,500
says here. 
Because he's Lord. 

898
01:02:31,400 --> 01:02:32,600
You're not going to stand with 
us. 

899
01:02:33,600 --> 01:02:38,900
I have no opinion in the matter.
But my king says, and that's 

900
01:02:38,900 --> 01:02:43,300
what I do. 
I'm a follower of Jesus. 

901
01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:51,500
And you know, how we follow him 
with all our heart, all our 

902
01:02:51,500 --> 01:02:57,700
soul, all our mind, and all our 
strength, that means he even has

903
01:02:57,700 --> 01:03:03,500
a right to tell you what, you 
can put inside your mouth so 

904
01:03:03,500 --> 01:03:05,800
that your skin suit. 
Can how's your? 

905
01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:14,600
It man. 
He has a right to talk to you on

906
01:03:14,600 --> 01:03:19,600
all fronts because at the end of
the day is he supreme authority.

907
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:29,400
If he is that I challenge you 
from now on every time we hit 

908
01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:36,200
scripture anywhere and you hear 
words like obey, right? 

909
01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:42,700
Do Then you're like, that's my 
king talking to me and I obey 

910
01:03:42,700 --> 01:03:45,400
him. 
I'll give you one. 

911
01:03:46,100 --> 01:03:49,600
It's real simple, this easy for 
you because you're here, do not 

912
01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:52,000
forsake the assembling of 
yourselves together. 

913
01:03:53,100 --> 01:03:55,400
You know what, my king said that
why you going to church today? 

914
01:03:55,600 --> 01:03:57,700
My king says, I obey him, I 
fall. 

915
01:03:57,700 --> 01:04:01,800
I'm a follower, I'm a follower. 
I assemble, I do that. 

916
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:07,200
That's just what I do because 
I'm a follower So what I do, 

917
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:11,900
here's another one. 
It says obey your leaders. 

918
01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:19,900
And again, it's not power trip. 
It's keeping watch over your 

919
01:04:19,900 --> 01:04:23,400
soul, let's say, you know, we 
just need to talk about this. 

920
01:04:24,100 --> 01:04:27,100
Don't put up a wall and get 
resistance, say, you know what, 

921
01:04:27,700 --> 01:04:33,400
I trust God.
