00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,500
Thanks for checking out the 
anchor Faith, Message podcast 

2
00:00:14,500 --> 00:00:15,900
from st. 
Augustine Florida. 

3
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:25,100
Now, enjoy this message. 
Hasn't this been Rich so far? 

4
00:00:25,900 --> 00:00:29,700
Can you handle some more man? 
I just tell you these things 

5
00:00:29,700 --> 00:00:33,800
just build on one another. 
You know we've done these 

6
00:00:33,900 --> 00:00:40,000
conferences now for so long for 
several years especially in the 

7
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,400
vein of Kingdom rise. 
It was full force Kingdom 

8
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:47,100
conference before that and each 
time the the speakers that are 

9
00:00:47,100 --> 00:00:49,300
lined up the speakers that we 
bring in. 

10
00:00:49,500 --> 00:00:52,400
It just seems that everything 
just Builds on itself. 

11
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,700
One thing's connected to the 
other, we find ourselves, you 

12
00:00:56,700 --> 00:00:59,200
know, kind of trampling over 
walking over each other's 

13
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,700
messages, I'm sitting down there
this morning, you would think 

14
00:01:01,700 --> 00:01:05,800
Pastor Daryl, and I studied 
together in preparation for this

15
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,800
morning. 
But that's just how it's been. 

16
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,700
And, you know, I was telling 
Pastor Earle back in the room 

17
00:01:11,700 --> 00:01:14,700
before we came out this morning.
I said I've got so many 

18
00:01:14,700 --> 00:01:17,400
branches. 
You know, you're trying to dial 

19
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:21,700
in which one do you can't. 
Can you take that morning? 

20
00:01:21,700 --> 00:01:22,900
They're all connected to the 
same. 

21
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,100
Tree and then, Pastor Daryl does
what he did. 

22
00:01:26,300 --> 00:01:28,900
And I'm just sitting my wife's 
like laughing at me because she 

23
00:01:28,900 --> 00:01:32,100
can see my notes and I'm just 
going, you got to be kidding me.

24
00:01:32,100 --> 00:01:35,200
You got to be kidding me. 
You know, I had the Rich Young 

25
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,800
Ruler in here and I'll have some
things to say about it, but he 

26
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,700
pretty much said, much of what 
needed to be said. 

27
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,800
And but, you know, that's the 
thing is we get in here and I 

28
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:49,900
may see 10 different ways to go,
somebody's gonna hit it because 

29
00:01:49,900 --> 00:01:51,800
by the holy spirit is not all on
me. 

30
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,300
It's not all on pasture. 
Earl, Pastor Daryl Pastor, Rowdy

31
00:01:54,300 --> 00:01:56,700
Pastor Marcy. 
Anybody else at speaking, we're 

32
00:01:56,700 --> 00:02:00,700
all being used, it's a 
coordinated effort. 

33
00:02:00,700 --> 00:02:04,100
If you will, we're all working 
together whether we know it or 

34
00:02:04,100 --> 00:02:07,500
not because I texted or know we 
were together Pastor on I 

35
00:02:07,500 --> 00:02:11,200
somewhere and you know, I just 
asked because it's his house. 

36
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,400
It's his conference. 
I'm submitted to the to the man 

37
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,800
of God and to the plan of God 
through him. 

38
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,300
And I just asked, you know, is 
there any specific theme is 

39
00:02:19,300 --> 00:02:22,400
there, any specific Direction 
you want to go? 

40
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,700
And he just Laughs at me, you 
know, because I know the answer.

41
00:02:25,700 --> 00:02:28,500
But again, I'm just asking to 
ask you, not just want to be 

42
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,300
submitted to whatever he's 
sensing and feeling whatever 

43
00:02:31,300 --> 00:02:35,700
direction we should go. 
And of course, we don't line it 

44
00:02:35,700 --> 00:02:39,700
out that way, but it seems, I 
think every single time we've 

45
00:02:39,700 --> 00:02:42,800
done a kingdom rise conference, 
we end up in the same vein. 

46
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,100
We end up in this same theme 
even though it's the kingdom, 

47
00:02:46,100 --> 00:02:49,200
we're picking apart principles 
or elements of the kingdom, and 

48
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,800
they all just connect. 
And that's the way the kingdom. 

49
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,800
Works. 
That's what we're trying to get 

50
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,000
across to you, and and I hope 
that you are grabbing ahold of 

51
00:02:58,000 --> 00:02:59,500
that. 
I had someone tell me yesterday,

52
00:02:59,500 --> 00:03:02,600
at next Kingdom rides. 
I'm taking two weeks off, one 

53
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,600
week to receive it. 
And I need another week just to 

54
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:10,900
digest it and process it. 
The conversations that we have 

55
00:03:10,900 --> 00:03:14,200
back in the green room after 
each session or at lunch or 

56
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,900
dinner, or when we're to get 
just comes out of us. 

57
00:03:16,900 --> 00:03:19,300
And I'm telling you right now 
guys, if you are not having 

58
00:03:19,300 --> 00:03:23,100
conversations after these 
conferences with one You're 

59
00:03:23,100 --> 00:03:25,400
missing out on one of the 
greatest aspects of Kingdom 

60
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,500
rise, do not. 
And I'm just, we're gonna talk 

61
00:03:28,500 --> 00:03:35,200
about today, do not just, merely
receive it has to be unloaded. 

62
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:39,900
It has to be talked about 
discussed processed digested 

63
00:03:39,900 --> 00:03:42,800
shared with one another. 
Amen. 

64
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,500
And that is the way that this 
just continues to build on one 

65
00:03:46,500 --> 00:03:50,600
another here and listen to what 
each other is getting take notes

66
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:54,200
and then go back and reread 
those Us notes and highlight 

67
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,200
those notes and get in the 
verses and you've got to dig 

68
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,300
into this thing and that's what 
we're trying to unveil. 

69
00:04:00,300 --> 00:04:06,000
I've been on a journey now with 
you since Monday on unveiling. 

70
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:11,000
This mystery of the Kingdom, The
Mystery of the Kingdom, we saw 

71
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:14,200
Jesus having a conversation with
the religious leader, the elite 

72
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:17,399
of the elite, the the ones that 
should have been able to grasp 

73
00:04:17,399 --> 00:04:22,600
this in seen this based on man's
qualifications or man standards.

74
00:04:22,900 --> 00:04:25,600
Our skilled, they're 
knowledgeable. 

75
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,200
They're educated their 
intellectual, right? 

76
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:33,900
Their analytical. 
These are men that have given 

77
00:04:33,900 --> 00:04:38,000
themselves to trying to 
understand the nature of God, 

78
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,500
who God is God's laws and God's 
principles. 

79
00:04:40,500 --> 00:04:43,300
But yet he says, we hear your 
great teaching. 

80
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,900
We see your signs and wonders, 
but Jesus says, man, you can't 

81
00:04:46,900 --> 00:04:51,300
even see the kingdom, unless 
you're born again. 

82
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,800
And so, we've been looking at 
This understanding that the 

83
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:59,100
degree to which you exhibit the 
kingdom demonstrate the Kingdom 

84
00:04:59,100 --> 00:05:02,700
live, the kingdom is always 
directly connected to your 

85
00:05:02,700 --> 00:05:06,100
ability to hear and see the 
kingdom. 

86
00:05:07,100 --> 00:05:10,400
And just because you can hear 
the powerful teachings and see 

87
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:14,400
the Miracles, and wonders does 
not mean you see the kingdom 

88
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,900
later on. 
He tells Nicodemus you can see 

89
00:05:16,900 --> 00:05:19,400
the effects of the wind, but you
don't see where it's coming 

90
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,700
from. 
You can see the effects of the 

91
00:05:21,700 --> 00:05:26,000
Kingdom, but you are Sorted to 
applauding a miracle but never 

92
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:30,100
participating with one and guys,
Jesus did not come to show us 

93
00:05:30,100 --> 00:05:32,500
what he could do. 
He came to show us what we could

94
00:05:32,500 --> 00:05:35,300
do. 
Say that again. 

95
00:05:35,300 --> 00:05:38,000
Jesus did not just come to show 
us what he could do. 

96
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,500
He came to show us what we can 
do. 

97
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,300
He expected us to be active, 
participants in this Kingdom. 

98
00:05:44,700 --> 00:05:48,600
Not Mere bystanders, not 
Spectators, but participators, 

99
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,500
right. 
Getting us off the sideline out 

100
00:05:51,500 --> 00:05:54,000
of the grand stands, and onto 
the playing field, and being a 

101
00:05:54,008 --> 00:05:56,600
part of the last day and time 
Revival. 

102
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,100
Amen. 
And so, he says, you can't even 

103
00:05:59,100 --> 00:06:00,700
see the kingdom unless you're 
born again. 

104
00:06:00,700 --> 00:06:03,200
So he sets a different standard 
for this born. 

105
00:06:03,300 --> 00:06:05,800
Again, live being born again to 
Jesus. 

106
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,400
Obviously meant something 
different to him than it has 

107
00:06:09,300 --> 00:06:12,600
become to us. 
Because what we fail to 

108
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,800
understand, we typically 
redefine. 

109
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,700
So we've redefined born again 
because we didn't understand 

110
00:06:18,700 --> 00:06:21,100
being born again. 
We didn't understand it. 

111
00:06:21,100 --> 00:06:24,000
According to Jesus standard, 
that this is an invitation, a 

112
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:28,800
journey of discovery of finding 
out all that the kingdom has for

113
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,500
you. 
And we have reduced it to just 

114
00:06:31,500 --> 00:06:35,400
entry-level just getting into 
Thing, and then by standing, 

115
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:39,600
waiting by watching things, take
place, but never participating 

116
00:06:39,700 --> 00:06:42,100
until we go to Heavens. 
This making sense, just giving a

117
00:06:42,100 --> 00:06:46,100
little recap yesterday. 
We talked about the treasure the

118
00:06:46,100 --> 00:06:51,800
treasure, what you treasure, you
attract, what you value, what 

119
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:56,000
you honor in your life. 
You get more of Jesus made the 

120
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,200
statement in Matthew Chapter 13.
After he told the disciples, 

121
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,300
it's a mystery to you. 
It's been given to know the 

122
00:07:02,300 --> 00:07:04,400
Mysteries. 
He's of the Kingdom. 

123
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,900
A mystery is a secret thing or a
hidden thing. 

124
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,500
Remember, it is not hidden from 
you. 

125
00:07:09,500 --> 00:07:13,800
It is hidden for you. 
Say that again, it's not hidden 

126
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,000
from you. 
It's hidden for you, it's set 

127
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,200
apart for you, but it's going to
take some effort. 

128
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,300
It's going to take some urgency.
It's going to take some yield 

129
00:07:23,300 --> 00:07:25,900
Ignace of the heart. 
We talked about the posture of 

130
00:07:25,900 --> 00:07:29,900
the heart, and if your heart is 
posture to receive you'll get in

131
00:07:29,900 --> 00:07:35,400
abundance, he said to him, who 
has more will be given to the 

132
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:40,300
one who does not have though. 
So, if I posture myself in a way

133
00:07:40,300 --> 00:07:43,100
that I cannot hear event, 
Actually, I will not hear 

134
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,900
eventually. 
I will refuse to hear. 

135
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,900
And you can see all the signs, 
and you still deny. 

136
00:07:53,300 --> 00:07:57,800
You can hear all the powerful 
teaching and still be a downer 

137
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:01,600
and an unbeliever eventually 
becoming offended. 

138
00:08:01,700 --> 00:08:05,200
I was going to go this morning, 
the direction of familiarity and

139
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,700
talking about because 
familiarity is the opposite of 

140
00:08:07,700 --> 00:08:10,500
Honor when something becomes 
common. 

141
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,500
You have stepped away from 
honoring something. 

142
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,100
It's common. 
It's and guys, this is the thing

143
00:08:18,100 --> 00:08:21,200
in our lives today. 
I see the Next Generation in 

144
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,700
this room. 
I speak to my generation and 

145
00:08:23,700 --> 00:08:28,400
above what we treat as optional,
they will treat as unnecessary. 

146
00:08:33,299 --> 00:08:36,299
Brother Hagin said it. 
We are one generation away. 

147
00:08:37,700 --> 00:08:43,400
From not seeing the move of God.
We if we, if we fail to pass it 

148
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:50,900
down, they will pass it up. 
If we don't pass it down, they 

149
00:08:50,900 --> 00:08:54,300
will pass it up. 
It's up to us to show them. 

150
00:08:54,300 --> 00:08:58,900
The all of God, it's up to up, 
to us to show them the kingdom, 

151
00:08:58,900 --> 00:09:01,700
of God, the value in the honor 
for these things. 

152
00:09:01,700 --> 00:09:07,700
But when we, when our kids are 
urging us to get to church, are 

153
00:09:07,700 --> 00:09:10,500
we going to church today? 
I mean, it's time and we're not 

154
00:09:10,500 --> 00:09:17,100
even, you know, What are we 
passing down? 

155
00:09:18,100 --> 00:09:22,400
They'll eventually pass it up. 
If it's optional to us, it'll be

156
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:28,700
unnecessary to them. 
Okay, so familiarity and this is

157
00:09:28,700 --> 00:09:31,500
the thing in Mark chapter 6. 
We've been talking about it when

158
00:09:31,500 --> 00:09:33,900
he went home and preached in his
hometown Nazareth. 

159
00:09:34,300 --> 00:09:36,400
Maybe they were familiar with 
him. 

160
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,000
When you become familiar, you're
one step away from becoming 

161
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,400
offended because now it's 
common. 

162
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,900
Now I see the problems with it, 
more than I see the blessing 

163
00:09:46,900 --> 00:09:50,300
with it. 
Now, I complain about the thing.

164
00:09:50,300 --> 00:09:54,700
I once prayed for This is what 
common does in our life. 

165
00:09:54,700 --> 00:09:56,700
This is what familiarity does in
our life. 

166
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:01,900
I now become offended with it. 
What's he, who does? 

167
00:10:01,900 --> 00:10:04,500
He think he is this Man from 
Nazareth. 

168
00:10:05,700 --> 00:10:08,200
Doing these Miracles and 
preaching these teachings and 

169
00:10:08,300 --> 00:10:13,100
doing all these awesome wonders.
Familiarity, isn't he just the 

170
00:10:13,300 --> 00:10:16,900
carpenter, isn't he don't? 
We live with his brothers and 

171
00:10:16,900 --> 00:10:18,600
sisters, didn't we grow up with 
him? 

172
00:10:18,700 --> 00:10:22,200
It's familiarity. 
And when you treat something as 

173
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,800
familiar, you're one step away 
from becoming offended by it, 

174
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,000
but I'm not going to talk about 
familiarity today. 

175
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,500
My message today, I have titled 
it a better response. 

176
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:37,800
A better response and will take 
us back to Matthew Chapter 13. 

177
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,600
It's kind of where we've been 
entrenched here. 

178
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,900
Jesus said, the born-again life 
should be marked by a kingdom 

179
00:10:44,900 --> 00:10:47,300
experience. 
You can't even see the kingdom. 

180
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:52,500
Unless one is born again and our
Born Again, life should not just

181
00:10:52,500 --> 00:10:56,100
be a mere praying, a prayer and 
sitting around waiting to go to 

182
00:10:56,100 --> 00:10:58,300
heaven. 
It should be marked by a journey

183
00:10:58,300 --> 00:11:01,800
and discovery of Kingdom things 
of Kingdom, reality of a, 

184
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,100
shifting of a perspective. 
That's what the Born Again, life

185
00:11:05,100 --> 00:11:07,800
should be marked by. 
And in Matthew, Chapter 13, 

186
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,900
Jesus, of course, gives the 
parable of the sower. 

187
00:11:10,900 --> 00:11:14,400
We've Been digging into this and
his disciples come to him and 

188
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,200
say why do you talk to them in 
these hard to understand 

189
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,500
stories, hard to understand 
illustrations? 

190
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:24,100
We've always defined Parables as
a way that Jesus illustrated The

191
00:11:24,100 --> 00:11:27,300
Kingdom but it's actually a way 
that he concealed the kingdom, 

192
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:32,700
he hid the Kingdom from people 
that didn't want to hear, If you

193
00:11:32,700 --> 00:11:37,200
won't hear, you don't hear. 
But he said to you, it's been 

194
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,200
given to know the mysteries of 
the Kingdom. 

195
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,400
You have ears to hear you have 
eyes to see, right? 

196
00:11:42,500 --> 00:11:45,200
Well let's break down this. 
Parable starting in verse 18. 

197
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:46,800
We've gotten all the way up to 
this point. 

198
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,100
So let's finish this thing off, 
Verse 18. 

199
00:11:50,100 --> 00:11:53,300
Now, listen to the explanation 
vert and the I'm reading out of 

200
00:11:53,308 --> 00:11:59,100
the new living. 
Listen to the explanation of the

201
00:11:59,100 --> 00:12:03,600
parable about the farmer 
planting seeds, the seat that 

202
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,100
fell on the footpath represents 
those who hear the message. 

203
00:12:07,100 --> 00:12:10,700
Everyone say, hear hear the 
message about the kingdom but 

204
00:12:10,700 --> 00:12:15,800
don't understand it. 
The evil one comes and snatches 

205
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:17,600
away. 
The seed that was planted, 

206
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:22,300
everyone say planted in their 
hearts, the seed on the rocky 

207
00:12:22,300 --> 00:12:24,800
soil represents. 
Those who hear everyone say, 

208
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:31,200
hear the message and immediately
receives it with joy. 

209
00:12:31,900 --> 00:12:37,500
But since they don't have Deep 
Roots, they don't last long, 

210
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:42,900
they fall away as soon as They 
have problems. 

211
00:12:42,900 --> 00:12:46,000
You know, how many Believers are
one problem away from falling 

212
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,300
away from the word, one crisis 
away? 

213
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:53,000
They are on the there's no 
margin in their life whatsoever.

214
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,700
We're not even talking a 
multitude of Crisis, after 

215
00:12:56,700 --> 00:12:58,500
crisis. 
We're talking just one little 

216
00:12:58,500 --> 00:13:03,100
hiccup and they're, like, does 
this thing even work challenging

217
00:13:03,100 --> 00:13:06,800
and questioning Because they 
don't have Deep Roots, they 

218
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:11,400
don't last long, they fall away 
as soon as they have problems or

219
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,700
our part persecuted for 
believing God's word. 

220
00:13:16,900 --> 00:13:20,300
Verse 22 says, the seed that 
fell among the Thorns 

221
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,900
represents. 
Those who hear everyone say hear

222
00:13:24,300 --> 00:13:31,300
God's word, but all too quickly,
the message is crowded out by 

223
00:13:31,300 --> 00:13:35,500
the worries of this life and the
lure of wealth. 

224
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:43,100
So, no fruit is produced. 
Verse 23 says the seed that fell

225
00:13:43,100 --> 00:13:48,400
on good soil represents. 
Those who truly hear everyone 

226
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:53,800
say here and understand God's 
word and produce a harvest of 

227
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:59,700
30, 60 or even 100 times as much
as had been planted. 

228
00:13:59,700 --> 00:14:04,000
Notice that I had you repeat the
word here four times. 

229
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,200
It can be easy if we don't 
maintain the authenticity of the

230
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:16,500
word to think, we'll only one 
heard because one produce, how 

231
00:14:16,500 --> 00:14:20,900
many produced, how many heard, 
how many produced? 

232
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,900
How many heard this is a 
problem. 

233
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,100
This is a problem. 
It actually says, even the one 

234
00:14:30,100 --> 00:14:33,400
word, the seed fell, by the 
wayside heard. 

235
00:14:35,300 --> 00:14:39,900
Guys, we're not talking about 
the world that is unaware of 

236
00:14:39,900 --> 00:14:42,600
knowledge and Truth. 
We're talking about people that 

237
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:47,600
sit in these chairs sit in these
pews, sit on the same row with 

238
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:52,700
you. 
And on this row, we can have one

239
00:14:52,700 --> 00:14:58,400
of four responses. 
But all of them were in the 

240
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:07,400
environment to hear the word. 
Faith comes by. 

241
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,800
We got to hear. 
That's the starting point. 

242
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,600
We've got to hear something. 
How can they do? 

243
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,900
Unless they have heard, how can 
they be sent? 

244
00:15:17,900 --> 00:15:21,800
Unless they have her? 
The hearing is such a powerful 

245
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:25,100
component, but guys, there is a 
better response. 

246
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,600
So let's break these responses 
down and then we're going to use

247
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,200
a couple of illustrations, one 
that Pastor Darrell's already 

248
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:35,500
used. 
So I can Breeze through that 

249
00:15:35,500 --> 00:15:39,100
one, and then get 21 more. 
I always have one in the 

250
00:15:39,100 --> 00:15:42,100
chamber. 
Pastor Earle taught me that I 

251
00:15:42,100 --> 00:15:46,500
texted all my verses to Josh 
back there, Josh and Chase. 

252
00:15:46,500 --> 00:15:49,300
And I have been having so many 
conversations this week about 

253
00:15:49,300 --> 00:15:53,600
all this stuff and so I texted 
him my verses and then Pastor 

254
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:57,100
Daryl started preaching and I've
responded back to Josh's and 

255
00:15:57,100 --> 00:15:59,800
thing. 
He said that he got them and I 

256
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:03,300
said, you got to be kidding me. 
But I got another one in the 

257
00:16:03,308 --> 00:16:06,600
chamber, so I texted him another
verse right down there. 

258
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:08,900
As I've said, I was like, I know
where I'm going. 

259
00:16:08,900 --> 00:16:14,500
Then let's break down these 
responses, verse 19, the seed 

260
00:16:14,500 --> 00:16:18,300
that fell on the footpath 
represents those who hear the 

261
00:16:18,300 --> 00:16:22,200
message about what the kingdom. 
You know, that there's only one 

262
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:26,100
real message that the enemies 
after the enemy is okay, with 

263
00:16:26,100 --> 00:16:28,500
you hearing messages as long as 
they have nothing to do with the

264
00:16:28,500 --> 00:16:31,000
kingdom. 
In fact, you'll flood you with 

265
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,300
messages that have nothing. 
To do with the kingdom to make 

266
00:16:33,300 --> 00:16:35,500
you feel like you've 
accomplished something acquired,

267
00:16:35,500 --> 00:16:38,600
something been somewhere, done 
that and at the end of the day, 

268
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,300
you're just as empty as you were
before you sat through the talk 

269
00:16:41,700 --> 00:16:44,400
before you play it the podcast 
before you watch the Youtube 

270
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:49,000
video, he will send them to you.
You know that little sidebar on 

271
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,600
the right at YouTube that says 
he a lot of that stuff, says 

272
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,800
content. 
It's not Kingdom related. 

273
00:16:55,800 --> 00:17:00,700
There's no power in it. 
No, but there is one message 

274
00:17:00,700 --> 00:17:06,000
he's after and it says that he 
comes immediately to snatch away

275
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:15,000
the message about the kingdom, 
but it still says this, the evil

276
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,900
one comes and this is the seed 
on the Wayside. 

277
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,400
The evil one comes and snatches 
away. 

278
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:27,200
The seed that was planted, it 
could be easy to think that the 

279
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,500
seed ended up on the Wayside 
because of carelessness of the 

280
00:17:30,500 --> 00:17:34,300
sower. 
But that's not what it says. 

281
00:17:35,300 --> 00:17:39,400
It still says it was planted in 
their hearts and ended up on the

282
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:44,700
Wayside because the receiver 
failed to honor it properly. 

283
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,400
See, when we get up here and 
hold this mic, we're casting 

284
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:55,000
seed, and we're not carelessly 
recklessly just throwing seed 

285
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:56,900
around, hoping that it lands 
somewhere. 

286
00:17:57,500 --> 00:18:03,600
We are sowing seed on soil. 
It's your response that 

287
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:09,700
determines is this good soil. 
Wayside soil just gravel, just 

288
00:18:09,700 --> 00:18:16,000
remaining on the surface, has 
nothing to do with the sower. 

289
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,000
It really ought to be called the
parable of the soil. 

290
00:18:21,100 --> 00:18:23,700
Because there's nothing wrong 
with the sea and there's nothing

291
00:18:23,700 --> 00:18:26,200
wrong with the solar. 
It's the soil. 

292
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:34,400
That determines the results. 
Even the Wayside stuff is. 

293
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:41,500
Not our problem. 
I'm honoring the calling the 

294
00:18:41,500 --> 00:18:44,100
assignment that God has placed 
on my life to deliver the word 

295
00:18:45,100 --> 00:18:52,400
and I hold that in high value. 
Hold that in high honor to be in

296
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:57,400
this position. 
Not carelessly recklessly with 

297
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:01,500
with Reckless abandon just know 
there's intentionality there's 

298
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,700
effort. 
Are we challenged our church? 

299
00:19:04,700 --> 00:19:07,500
Do you give as much effort to 
receive the word as I give to 

300
00:19:07,500 --> 00:19:13,600
deliver the word, huh? 
What do you think I'm doing on 

301
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:14,800
the way to church in the 
morning? 

302
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,600
What do you think? 
I'm listening to in the car on 

303
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:18,800
the way to church in the 
morning? 

304
00:19:20,500 --> 00:19:22,900
What do you think playing in my 
truck as I'm driving to the 

305
00:19:22,900 --> 00:19:24,800
church? 
What do you think? 

306
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:28,100
I'm in be from before I 
delivered the word. 

307
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:35,800
This is Kingdom rise, right? 
Alright, didn't like that one. 

308
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:36,900
Let's try another one. 
Okay. 

309
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,200
This is the seat on the wayside.
It remains surface. 

310
00:19:43,300 --> 00:19:47,500
But yet, it was still planted 
sown in the heart. 

311
00:19:48,700 --> 00:19:51,000
Let's not remove that aspect 
that's in there. 

312
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:58,500
The seed on the rocky soil. 
Verse 20 represents those who 

313
00:19:58,500 --> 00:20:00,900
hear the message again, we heard
it. 

314
00:20:02,500 --> 00:20:07,800
This one we add a little more to
it and immediately receives it 

315
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,200
with joy. 
Everyone say receive it 

316
00:20:10,900 --> 00:20:14,200
immediately receive it. 
So that means we have now two 

317
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,600
different accounts, one that as 
it's being ministered it's just 

318
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,100
fallen on the Wayside. 
It's not taken in. 

319
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,900
It's not received with joy. 
There's no value. 

320
00:20:22,900 --> 00:20:25,000
There's no attention. 
You're scrolling Facebook, 

321
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,400
falling asleep, getting up and 
moving around going to bathroom 

322
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,000
10 times. 
I'm just not name them all, I 

323
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,800
just identify at all. 
All its Kingdom rise. 

324
00:20:36,500 --> 00:20:39,600
Okay, that's the Wayside stuff 
got you just wasted an hour and 

325
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:43,400
a half of your time and if 
you're a taker, fake church and 

326
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,000
st. 
Augustine is probably two and a 

327
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:49,100
half hours, Tom's different down
here on the coast. 

328
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,200
Ha ha, ha. 
You just wasted time. 

329
00:20:53,900 --> 00:20:57,200
But now we've got those that 
immediately receive it. 

330
00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,700
Everyone say receive, receive it
with joy. 

331
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:03,800
What a powerful word passed the 
bar. 

332
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:06,400
Oh man, that's awesome. 
That's exciting. 

333
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,600
Oh, I get that. 
Oh, I see that. 

334
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,500
Oh, that's great. 
And there's a receptivity to it 

335
00:21:11,500 --> 00:21:13,600
now. 
That's great. 

336
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,400
That's a step above. 
Just casually being in here. 

337
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:22,300
Not even receiving the word, but
it still says, but they don't 

338
00:21:22,300 --> 00:21:29,300
have deep roots. 
They don't last long apparently.

339
00:21:29,300 --> 00:21:34,900
That's not even good enough. 
filling the notebook but living 

340
00:21:34,900 --> 00:21:40,200
an empty life highlighting the 
verse but not applying the verse

341
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:47,000
Y'all with me, we good. 
I've got to go a little further.

342
00:21:47,700 --> 00:21:50,200
I'm not the one thumbing through
Facebook while Pastor marks 

343
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,200
preaching, while Pastor Earl's 
delivering the word, but I'm a 

344
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,100
men and I'm writing it down. 
I'm highlighting it but I don't 

345
00:21:56,100 --> 00:22:00,700
have it routed in me. 
How do we get there? 

346
00:22:02,300 --> 00:22:04,100
Okay, that's the second 
occurrence. 

347
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:08,300
It says that they fall away as 
soon as they have problems and 

348
00:22:08,300 --> 00:22:11,800
are persecuted. 
And so guys, some, some of us 

349
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,500
don't make it to the parking lot
before we Face a problem or 

350
00:22:14,500 --> 00:22:19,500
persecution. 
We got two arms lifted in here. 

351
00:22:19,500 --> 00:22:22,100
Pastor Marcus is dripping all 
over this place. 

352
00:22:22,100 --> 00:22:25,300
Worship teams doing amazing job 
but we get to the car and we're 

353
00:22:25,300 --> 00:22:28,500
reminded of the bill reminded of
the circumstance, reminded of 

354
00:22:28,500 --> 00:22:31,800
the sickness reminded of the 
report reminded of the issue. 

355
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:38,900
The enemies coming immediately. 
I'll tell you what, if you don't

356
00:22:38,900 --> 00:22:42,300
honor the word, the devil, does 
he orders it in the sense that 

357
00:22:42,300 --> 00:22:44,800
he values? 
What it can produce in your life

358
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,200
if you get a hold of it and 
he'll go after it? 

359
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,900
Okay? 
But they don't have Deep Roots. 

360
00:22:54,900 --> 00:22:59,600
Verse 22, the seed that fell 
among the Thorns represents. 

361
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,600
Those who hear everyone? 
Say, hear God's word. 

362
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:06,400
So, this is the third occurrence
now, but all too quickly, the 

363
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:10,700
message is crowded out by the 
worries of this life and the 

364
00:23:10,700 --> 00:23:16,500
lure of wealth. 
And no fruit is produced. 

365
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,400
In this occurrence as well. 
In the new King James, it 

366
00:23:22,408 --> 00:23:24,900
doesn't have it here listed in 
the new living, but it says the 

367
00:23:24,900 --> 00:23:27,200
same statement received it with 
joy. 

368
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,900
Once again, these are the 
individuals sitting in the 

369
00:23:31,900 --> 00:23:35,500
service. 
Raising their hands worshipping 

370
00:23:35,500 --> 00:23:38,300
God, taking the notes 
highlighting the versus 

371
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,200
receiving it with joy, as it's 
being delivered. 

372
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,900
Now if the enemy can't get you 
with persecutions and problems 

373
00:23:44,900 --> 00:23:47,400
then he'll get you with the 
deceitfulness of riches and the 

374
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:52,000
busyness of life. 
You know what busyness is Right?

375
00:23:52,300 --> 00:23:58,500
Busyness is artificial. 
Significance, busyness is 

376
00:23:58,500 --> 00:24:02,800
counterfeit purpose. 
It feels like purpose but it's 

377
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:09,100
not greatest tragedy in life. 
Being busy and not effective. 

378
00:24:12,500 --> 00:24:15,100
So if he gets artificial, what I
say artificial. 

379
00:24:15,100 --> 00:24:16,900
Significance. 
Counterfeit purpose. 

380
00:24:17,500 --> 00:24:20,900
Artificial significance. 
Feels like it. 

381
00:24:21,300 --> 00:24:24,300
Even kind of little looks like 
it when you get to the root of 

382
00:24:24,300 --> 00:24:25,700
it. 
It's worth nothing. 

383
00:24:27,700 --> 00:24:32,200
Counterfeit dollar bill is worth
nothing but it's got a feel and 

384
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,700
look it tries to replicate as 
much as it can but at the end of

385
00:24:35,700 --> 00:24:40,900
the has no value whatsoever. 
And so if he can't get you with 

386
00:24:40,900 --> 00:24:43,700
circumstances, challenges 
managers rebuking the devil. 

387
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,000
No weapon formed against me, 
shall prosper dunna. 

388
00:24:46,100 --> 00:24:49,100
I overcome imma conquer that. 
What he will do is to make you 

389
00:24:49,100 --> 00:24:53,600
so busy, and so does seated by 
the loser of wealth, and the 

390
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:57,500
loser of acquiring things and 
loser of the world. 

391
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,700
We see it all the time 
popularity. 

392
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,700
Look, where are we are a sports 
household. 

393
00:25:09,900 --> 00:25:13,300
Baseball is. 
We love it. 

394
00:25:15,300 --> 00:25:19,600
I've passed that on. 21 at least
one will see. 

395
00:25:19,700 --> 00:25:23,400
Austin seems to be taking well 
to it as well, sit down and 

396
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,700
watch this baseball game, right?
Let me tell you exactly how to 

397
00:25:26,700 --> 00:25:32,300
double play. 
But it's not King. 

398
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:40,600
And we started this whole travel
ball deal and you know, travel 

399
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,700
balls on the weekends while I 
work on the weekends. 

400
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,000
And I know it's not an option. 
We've told Camden, from day one,

401
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,300
you will not play in any two-day
tournaments. 

402
00:25:50,300 --> 00:25:52,800
It's not happening. 
You're not going to miss church 

403
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:56,400
to be playing baseball. 
Now Saturday May we're out 

404
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,700
there. 
I mean, all day we got home, it 

405
00:25:59,700 --> 00:26:01,800
was one time. 
We got home at 2:30 in the 

406
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:06,600
morning, we got there at 8:30 in
the morning, left the house at 

407
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,800
6:30 that mornings. 
It was two hours away. 

408
00:26:09,700 --> 00:26:13,000
Play till we was playing. 
He was on the field at 12:45 

409
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:17,500
a.m. on the field. 
Came in second. 

410
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:20,300
Got home. 
Guess what? 

411
00:26:20,300 --> 00:26:23,000
I was doing the next morning. 
Guess what we were doing the 

412
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:27,700
next morning we're in church? 
I know what, I'm know what I'm 

413
00:26:27,700 --> 00:26:31,300
doing. 
But it's not going to compromise

414
00:26:31,300 --> 00:26:35,300
my call. 
I'm not going to get the kingdom

415
00:26:35,300 --> 00:26:41,100
gets gets reduced in our life as
we accumulate more things in our

416
00:26:41,100 --> 00:26:43,000
lives where we're going to look 
at with the Rich Young Ruler, 

417
00:26:43,100 --> 00:26:45,200
the more. 
He had the harder it was for him

418
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,200
to gain the kingdom. 
He had too much to gain. 

419
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:56,600
Okay, so now we have this luer 
of wealth. 

420
00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:00,500
We have this cares of the world,
the busyness of life, look at 

421
00:27:00,500 --> 00:27:03,000
this in the passion translation,
let's just read through this and

422
00:27:03,900 --> 00:27:05,200
break it down. 
Verse 18. 

423
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:09,100
Now you are ready? 
Everyone say I'm ready now. 

424
00:27:09,100 --> 00:27:11,400
You are ready to hear the 
explanation of the parable of 

425
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,800
the sower. 
What was sown along the path? 

426
00:27:13,900 --> 00:27:16,700
Represents the one who listens 
to the message of the Kingdom, 

427
00:27:16,700 --> 00:27:19,500
but doesn't understand it. 
The adversary then comes and 

428
00:27:19,500 --> 00:27:21,600
snatches away. 
What was sown into? 

429
00:27:21,700 --> 00:27:24,400
Oh, his heart. 
Verse 20 says the one stone on 

430
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:28,800
gravel represents the person who
gladly here's the kingdom 

431
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:34,700
message but his experience 
remains shallow shortly after he

432
00:27:34,700 --> 00:27:36,300
hears it troubles and 
persecutions. 

433
00:27:36,300 --> 00:27:37,900
Come because of the Kingdom 
message. 

434
00:27:37,900 --> 00:27:42,600
He received everyone say 
received, then, he quickly Falls

435
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,500
away for the truth. 
Didn't sink. 

436
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:49,700
Deeply into his heart. 
The ones sown among Thorns 

437
00:27:49,700 --> 00:27:51,500
represents one, who receives 
everyone? 

438
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:57,400
A receives the message but all 
of life's busy distractions, his

439
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:03,400
divided heart, here it is, his 
ambition for wealth result, in 

440
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:07,300
suffocating the kingdom message 
and it becomes fruit. 

441
00:28:08,300 --> 00:28:11,300
Oh, this is so good. 
Oh my goodness. 

442
00:28:11,500 --> 00:28:14,100
But what was sown on? 
Good rich. 

443
00:28:14,100 --> 00:28:16,200
Soil represents the one who 
hears? 

444
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,400
And here it is. 
Fully Embraces. 

445
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,500
Everyone say, fully Embraces the
mess. 

446
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:25,100
Sajjad of the Kingdom. 
Their lives bear. 

447
00:28:25,100 --> 00:28:28,000
Good fruit. 
Some yield a harvest of 30 60, 

448
00:28:28,100 --> 00:28:32,100
even 100 times as much as what 
was sown. 

449
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,400
Let's look at this in the 
Amplified, the Amplified. 

450
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,900
Listen to the meaning of the 
parable of the sower, while 

451
00:28:37,900 --> 00:28:40,700
anyone is hearing the word of 
the kingdom and does not grasp 

452
00:28:40,700 --> 00:28:43,300
and comprehend it. 
The evil one comes and snatches 

453
00:28:43,300 --> 00:28:45,200
away. 
What was sown in his heart. 

454
00:28:45,300 --> 00:28:49,000
This is what was sown along the 
roadside as for what was sown on

455
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:53,200
thin rocky soil. 
This is he, who hears the word 

456
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:57,900
and at Once welcomes and accepts
it with joy. 

457
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:03,800
Yet it has no real root in him 
but his temporary look at these 

458
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:09,100
words, temporary inconstant 
lasts but a little while and 

459
00:29:09,100 --> 00:29:12,500
when Affliction or trouble or 
persecution comes on account of 

460
00:29:12,500 --> 00:29:16,800
the word at once, he has caused 
to stumble, he is repelled and 

461
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,700
begins to distrust and desert 
him. 

462
00:29:19,700 --> 00:29:23,300
Whom he ought to trust and Obey 
and he falls away. 

463
00:29:24,300 --> 00:29:28,300
How is so good verse 22, as for 
what was sown among Thorns? 

464
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,700
This Is he who hears the word 
but the cares of the world, the 

465
00:29:31,700 --> 00:29:36,100
pleasure and Delight in Glamour 
and deceitfulness of riches 

466
00:29:36,300 --> 00:29:42,700
choke and suffocate the word. 
And it yields no fruit, what was

467
00:29:42,700 --> 00:29:45,800
sown on good soil. 
This is he who hears the word 

468
00:29:45,900 --> 00:29:49,800
grasp and comprehend it? 
He indeed, bears fruit and 

469
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:53,100
yields in one case a hundred 
times as much as what was sown 

470
00:29:53,300 --> 00:29:56,600
in another 60 times and another 
30. 

471
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,300
This is the key. 
This is the what Is what I want 

472
00:29:59,300 --> 00:30:05,200
you to get a word received 
without a proper response, will 

473
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,000
fail to yield the desired 
result. 

474
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:13,300
I'll say it again a word 
received without a proper 

475
00:30:13,300 --> 00:30:18,100
response, will fail to yield the
desired result. 

476
00:30:19,900 --> 00:30:25,400
Oh, word received without a 
proper response, a better 

477
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:31,200
response. 
Going to church not enough. 

478
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,000
Going to church and being 
checked out, not enough, going 

479
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,500
to church and thumbing through 
things being distracted, not 

480
00:30:36,500 --> 00:30:40,100
enough going to church receiving
it with joy. 

481
00:30:42,100 --> 00:30:45,400
Shouting. 
Amen, still not enough jerking 

482
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:49,100
and jiggling, his Pastor Ronnie 
said not enough being moved 

483
00:30:49,100 --> 00:30:52,400
emotionally in the presence. 
Not enough, guys. 

484
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,400
We need to get to a point where 
we value the word over presents 

485
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,100
because his word can do far more
for you than the presence. 

486
00:30:58,100 --> 00:31:00,900
Can I'm thankful for the 
presence of God, but there was a

487
00:31:00,908 --> 00:31:03,300
Roman Centurion who had the 
greatest faith of all this. 

488
00:31:03,300 --> 00:31:05,800
That I don't need your presence 
in the room. 

489
00:31:05,900 --> 00:31:08,600
I need your word. 
If you'll send your word, you'll

490
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,600
heal him and deliver him from 
all his diseases just speak on. 

491
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,400
A word only and my servant will 
be healed. 

492
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,400
Because you can't take Pastor 
Marcus in the worship, team with

493
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:25,100
you. 
You can't take us with you. 

494
00:31:27,100 --> 00:31:30,000
If you're always requiring, an 
external measure to make an 

495
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,400
impact on your life, you live at
the mercy of the external. 

496
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,400
It's about internalizing this, 
it's about getting it. 

497
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:40,000
Deeply rooted on the inside, 
it's about being so confident, 

498
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:43,000
so assured, nothing can move me,
nothing can shake me. 

499
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:47,100
Nothing can cause me to doubt or
disbelieve what the word has to 

500
00:31:47,100 --> 00:31:51,500
say. 
Become like an Israelite 

501
00:31:51,500 --> 00:31:54,000
wandering through the 
Wilderness, living from Miracle 

502
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,600
to Miracle, but never gaining 
the heart of the father. 

503
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,600
Miracles have their place, but 
Miracles should always point you

504
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,900
back to the word and to the 
heart of the father. 

505
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:10,900
Hopefully, we'll see that here 
in a minute. 

506
00:32:14,300 --> 00:32:20,300
A word received. 
Without a proper response, will 

507
00:32:20,300 --> 00:32:27,100
fail to yield the desired 
result, Revelation demands, both

508
00:32:27,900 --> 00:32:34,300
reception and responsiveness. 
I'll say that again, Revelation 

509
00:32:34,300 --> 00:32:39,500
demands both reception and 
responsiveness. 

510
00:32:39,700 --> 00:32:41,900
I pray this over our church, I 
started doing this. 

511
00:32:41,900 --> 00:32:44,500
I don't know, it's probably been
at least two or three years. 

512
00:32:45,700 --> 00:32:48,100
I pray this over our church 
every single time. 

513
00:32:48,100 --> 00:32:52,100
I Minister father, I pray that 
we have Minds that are receptive

514
00:32:52,100 --> 00:32:57,700
and hearts that are responsive I
pray that we have Minds that are

515
00:32:57,700 --> 00:33:03,300
receptive to receive the word 
but receiving the word without 

516
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:09,600
responding to the word. 
Will still leave me fruitless. 

517
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:20,000
Still need me is a mystery. 
Mysteries are discovered not by 

518
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:24,700
information, but by revelation. 
I gave you my testimony 

519
00:33:24,700 --> 00:33:27,200
yesterday of when the kingdom 
message first came and I was 

520
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,600
relying on information. 
I was reading the books. 

521
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,800
I was listening to The 
Minister's, but I was trying to 

522
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,300
be informed of the Kingdom 
rather than having the kingdom 

523
00:33:35,300 --> 00:33:37,400
revealed. 
There's only one way that he 

524
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,500
will bring the kingdom. 
It's through Revelation, it's 

525
00:33:39,500 --> 00:33:44,500
the only way and Revelation 
demands both receiving and 

526
00:33:44,500 --> 00:33:49,300
responding. 
There's a better response. 

527
00:33:49,300 --> 00:33:50,900
Everyone say there's a better 
response. 

528
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:55,300
There's a better response. 
Mark chapter 4, this is the 

529
00:33:55,300 --> 00:33:58,600
parable of the sower in marks 
account. 

530
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,100
That my account, there's another
Mart. 

531
00:34:05,100 --> 00:34:09,600
Mark chapter 4. and in wrapping 
it up, Jesus says this in verse 

532
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:16,699
24, Verse 24 and he said to 
them, pay attention. 

533
00:34:16,699 --> 00:34:21,000
Everyone say, pay attention, pay
attention to what you hear. 

534
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,600
This is what he says, by the 
measure, you use it. 

535
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,800
See we thought hearing was a 
passive word. 

536
00:34:35,199 --> 00:34:39,500
Hearing is in Jesus's context is
an active word. 

537
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:45,400
That what I hear should be put 
to use, pay attention. 

538
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:52,000
The measure that you use, it 
will be measured back to you. 

539
00:34:52,100 --> 00:34:55,600
I wonder how many Believers are 
expecting more in return than 

540
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:59,400
what they have put in. 
You know, we heard that 

541
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:06,100
statement or too poor to pay, 
attention, pay, pay, pay 

542
00:35:06,100 --> 00:35:09,600
attention, what's that? 
There's a cost involved. 

543
00:35:10,900 --> 00:35:15,900
Be leery of a gospel that 
doesn't cost you anything, be 

544
00:35:15,900 --> 00:35:18,300
leery of a gospel. 
That is a require, anything of 

545
00:35:18,300 --> 00:35:23,600
you be skeptical cautious, 
apprehensive of a gospel. 

546
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:27,200
That doesn't demand anything 
from you that freely gives you 

547
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,000
everything with. 
You just do whatever you want. 

548
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:35,500
It's covered it grace and mercy 
and love, know the love Demands.

549
00:35:35,500 --> 00:35:37,600
A response Grace, the man's our 
response. 

550
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,700
Mercy demands a response. 
I live from Even now I don't 

551
00:35:40,700 --> 00:35:45,700
live from the earth anymore. 
Pay attention, there's a cost 

552
00:35:45,700 --> 00:35:48,200
involved. 
Gospel cost, always determines 

553
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,900
value. 
You don't pay for what you don't

554
00:35:50,900 --> 00:35:55,700
value. 
And Jesus is saying, I'm not 

555
00:35:55,700 --> 00:36:02,000
bringing my valuable word. 
My valuable Kingdom down to your

556
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,800
level of cost. 
You're going to pay the cost. 

557
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:07,900
There's a high price but it's 
worth it. 

558
00:36:09,700 --> 00:36:14,300
It's worth it. 
Pay attention to what you hear, 

559
00:36:14,500 --> 00:36:22,600
by the measure, you use it, not 
hear it, not receive it by the 

560
00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:27,000
measure, you respond to it. 
That's what you'll get in return

561
00:36:27,500 --> 00:36:29,000
too. 
Many of us are wondering why 

562
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,200
we're not seeing signs 
demonstrations wonders. 

563
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:34,600
Because I've heard the word and 
I know the word and I believe 

564
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:39,600
the word, but if the Leaving 
isn't producing action, 

565
00:36:39,900 --> 00:36:44,400
associated with it, faith and 
obedience walk together. 

566
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:49,700
We heard that yesterday. 
Then you don't really value it. 

567
00:36:51,500 --> 00:36:58,600
It's not costing you anything. 
The Amplified says be careful 

568
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:02,100
what you are hearing the measure
of here. 

569
00:37:02,100 --> 00:37:06,000
It is thought in study. 
You what? 

570
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:10,400
Give We thought hearing the 
word, was what it was about. 

571
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:16,100
What I get. 
I'm coming to church to get 

572
00:37:16,100 --> 00:37:18,800
alert. 
Everybody wants to get a word. 

573
00:37:18,900 --> 00:37:21,000
What are you gonna give in 
response? 

574
00:37:21,100 --> 00:37:23,800
You know, a prophetic word, 
doesn't do anything in your life

575
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:31,800
if you don't obey the word given
Why are we demanding the word to

576
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:34,500
produce results in our life when
we're not responding 

577
00:37:34,500 --> 00:37:39,300
appropriately? 
It provides power, it provides 

578
00:37:39,300 --> 00:37:41,300
life. 
But what I do with that life and

579
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:45,500
what I do with that power is 
what determines the results? 

580
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:48,900
What I do with the word 
determines, what the word will 

581
00:37:48,900 --> 00:37:54,900
do for me, what I do with the 
word determines, what the word 

582
00:37:54,900 --> 00:37:59,000
will do for me. 
A better response. 

583
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,400
Well, at least I'm going to 
church but you're distracted. 

584
00:38:04,700 --> 00:38:07,200
Well at least I'm raising my 
hands and worshiping but what is

585
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:10,600
the response out of here? 
How Deeply rooted is the word in

586
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:12,200
you? 
How much do you value? 

587
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:15,800
What's the price that you pay? 
Because here's the thing guys if

588
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,600
it doesn't cost you anything 
then it's not worth anything. 

589
00:38:20,500 --> 00:38:23,700
If it doesn't cost anything from
you, then it's not worth 

590
00:38:23,700 --> 00:38:29,000
anything to you. 
I think it was Willie George 

591
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,900
back in the 80s. 
He used to travel, he pastor 

592
00:38:31,900 --> 00:38:34,500
church on the moves, he's handed
the church off to his son. 

593
00:38:34,500 --> 00:38:38,100
Now back in Tulsa, Oklahoma, but
he used to travel and teach 

594
00:38:38,700 --> 00:38:43,400
churches how to do a children's 
ministry because that was his 

595
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:44,700
vein. 
That was his second. 

596
00:38:44,700 --> 00:38:48,000
He had the Gospel Bill show and 
and all that, you know, and he 

597
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,500
would travel and he said he used
to do them for free and couldn't

598
00:38:50,500 --> 00:38:53,000
get anybody to come out. 
This is a free thing. 

599
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,700
We're just just come out. 
Nobody would come. 

600
00:38:55,700 --> 00:39:00,900
He said he started church and 
charging. $25. and because 

601
00:39:00,900 --> 00:39:07,700
people paid for something, they 
valued it and they came and not 

602
00:39:07,700 --> 00:39:13,500
interesting. but the first year,
the first year that we were here

603
00:39:13,500 --> 00:39:18,800
in 2004, The my first weekend 
here, I moved here. 

604
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:22,400
July 4th weekend is like July 
1st, July 2nd, drove all the way

605
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:25,200
from Texas came out here, we're 
not going to talk about all the 

606
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,800
details and we can leave that in
that's BC days. 

607
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:37,600
We did a, we handed out water 
bottles at the fort on July 4th 

608
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,200
with the fireworks. 
Go off here in St. 

609
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:44,900
Augustine you'd be amazed at how
hard it is to hand out a cold 

610
00:39:44,900 --> 00:39:49,400
bottle of water on a blistering 
July 4th afternoon. 

611
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:53,200
People are just like, you know, 
they're like, what do you want? 

612
00:39:53,300 --> 00:39:56,200
We're just giving you water. 
And here's a little piece of 

613
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:59,400
paper about a perfect church. 
That's all we're doing. 

614
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:02,500
They'd rather pay four dollars 
over here. 

615
00:40:02,500 --> 00:40:09,200
The little vendor. 
Because you don't, you don't 

616
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:12,600
want a free. 
That there are things that are 

617
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:16,700
freely given to us, that are 
made a gift to us. 

618
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:21,500
But there's got to be a cost 
involved, there's got to be an 

619
00:40:21,500 --> 00:40:24,700
effort involved. 
There's got to be intentionality

620
00:40:24,900 --> 00:40:26,500
involved. 
Y'all getting something. 

621
00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:30,500
He goes on down Matthew Chapter 
13. 

622
00:40:30,500 --> 00:40:32,900
Remember this? 
Is the parable that explains all

623
00:40:32,900 --> 00:40:35,300
the other Parables. 
If you don't understand this 

624
00:40:35,300 --> 00:40:38,900
one, you won't grasp the other 
ones, he jumps down to verse 44,

625
00:40:38,900 --> 00:40:42,500
Heavens Kingdom in the passion 
translation, Heavens Kingdom 

626
00:40:42,500 --> 00:40:44,100
realm can be Illustrated like 
this. 

627
00:40:44,100 --> 00:40:47,300
The person discovered that there
was hidden treasure in a field. 

628
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:51,500
Upon finding it. 
He hit it again. 

629
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:56,200
What? 
I'm telling you the kingdom will

630
00:40:56,200 --> 00:41:02,000
flip everything on its head. 
He hid the treasure again. 

631
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:04,400
Now, watch the following 
actions. 

632
00:41:05,100 --> 00:41:09,000
He discovered there was a hidden
treasure in a field upon finding

633
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:10,600
it. 
He hit it again because of 

634
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:13,600
uncovering, such treasure. 
He was overjoyed. 

635
00:41:14,500 --> 00:41:17,500
But notice that being Overjoyed 
about the treasure doesn't 

636
00:41:17,500 --> 00:41:19,700
happen. 
Help him gain the treasure. 

637
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:26,700
He was overjoyed, then sold. 
All everyone say, all that word 

638
00:41:26,700 --> 00:41:33,500
in the Greek, the word. 
All It means all. 

639
00:41:37,100 --> 00:41:38,400
All right, that one fell a 
little flat. 

640
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:47,000
Sold all that he possessed, all 
that, he possessed, all that. 

641
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:53,400
He had to buy the entire, not 
just the treasure the entire 

642
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:57,500
field. 
Just so he could have the 

643
00:41:57,500 --> 00:42:01,300
treasure verse 45 Heavens 
Kingdom realm is also like a 

644
00:42:01,300 --> 00:42:04,800
jewel Merchant in search of rare
pearls. 

645
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:09,500
When he discovered one very 
precious and exquisite Pearl, he

646
00:42:09,500 --> 00:42:15,200
immediately gave up all ass that
same word, all that he had in 

647
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:20,400
exchange for it. 
When you come in this room on a 

648
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:22,900
Sunday, on a Wednesday in a 
conference, whenever there's an 

649
00:42:22,900 --> 00:42:27,800
exchange taking place. 
What am I laying down? 

650
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:29,800
Not just. 
What am I taking up? 

651
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,600
The kingdom is not something you
add to. 

652
00:42:34,100 --> 00:42:37,700
It's something that replaces 
something I had before. 

653
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:44,100
And so the Rich Young Ruler 
without getting into it. 

654
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:48,000
He was looking to add something 
to his profile. 

655
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,800
I love how you put that looking 
to add to. 

656
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:54,600
He remember, he's a rich young 
ruler. 

657
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:59,000
He's got a lot of wealth, he's 
of young age. 

658
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:01,300
Got a whole life in front of him
and he's a ruler. 

659
00:43:01,300 --> 00:43:04,800
He's a man of influence. 
What else does he need? 

660
00:43:04,900 --> 00:43:08,900
And so Jesus says well, you know
the Commandments and I love the 

661
00:43:08,900 --> 00:43:10,800
statement and Pastor Daryl 
pointed out. 

662
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:16,900
I have kept all these things 
from my youth, think the 

663
00:43:16,900 --> 00:43:22,100
Amplified reads, I have I have 
something along the lines of. 

664
00:43:22,100 --> 00:43:24,600
I have not violated these 
commands. 

665
00:43:25,900 --> 00:43:29,800
What's he resting on? 
What's he putting his wealth it?

666
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:33,400
What's he putting his trust in 
my ability? 

667
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:38,500
He's building his own kingdom. 
The Jesus Kingdom looks 

668
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:44,000
attractive to him. 
And so Jesus says, okay, are you

669
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:46,900
willing to burn down your 
kingdom to gain my kingdom? 

670
00:43:48,100 --> 00:43:53,000
I have kept, he was really good 
at getting and he was really 

671
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:57,700
good at keeping. 
I've kept, I've kept, I've kept 

672
00:43:57,700 --> 00:44:02,300
and I value, keeping over laying
down to gain something else. 

673
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:07,000
Just go ahead and turn their 
Mark chapter 10 and throw it on 

674
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:10,100
the screen because I need to 
point out a couple things. 

675
00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:14,400
Verse 20. 
He said to him, teacher, I have 

676
00:44:14,500 --> 00:44:18,500
kept all these things and, you 
know, that he's good at gaining 

677
00:44:18,500 --> 00:44:22,000
because he has, he's a Rich 
Young Ruler, he's gained 

678
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,400
something in life. 
And Jesus looks at him and says 

679
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:28,400
you lack one thing and I had 
that in my notes, just as Pastor

680
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:31,400
Daryl said, man, we were right 
on man. 

681
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:34,800
It was just, you didn't just 
lack one thing, but you lacked 

682
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:40,500
the most important thing. 
because you lacking this thing 

683
00:44:40,500 --> 00:44:43,100
is the reason why you're lacking
everything else in your life, 

684
00:44:45,700 --> 00:44:50,200
There's a priority issue. 
The sound familiar. 

685
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:54,500
Matthew chapter 6, c key. 
What do you think that there's 

686
00:44:54,500 --> 00:44:57,300
other seeking that supposed to 
take place after you seek the 

687
00:44:57,300 --> 00:45:00,700
kingdom? 
No, it's not seek first and then

688
00:45:00,700 --> 00:45:03,900
seek everything else seek first,
and you'll find that seeking 

689
00:45:03,900 --> 00:45:07,000
this will replace all the other 
seeking you ever have to do in 

690
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:10,400
your life. 
You lack one thing up. 

691
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:12,900
There's a lot of things you 
like, but if you fix this one 

692
00:45:12,900 --> 00:45:16,700
it'll fix all these two its 
priority. 

693
00:45:20,700 --> 00:45:22,300
Jesus loved him. 
I loved that. 

694
00:45:22,300 --> 00:45:25,800
They left that in there. 
They were loving words. 

695
00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:28,600
These are not rebuking words. 
These are not condemning words, 

696
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:34,400
it might be challenging, But 
where there's no confrontation. 

697
00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:37,000
There's no growth. 
Well, there's no challenge, 

698
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:39,500
there's no growth. 
We said it yesterday you can 

699
00:45:39,500 --> 00:45:42,000
have comfort or you can have 
growth, but you cannot have 

700
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:46,300
both. 
The kingdom will disrupt. 

701
00:45:46,500 --> 00:45:49,900
The kingdom will challenge, the 
kingdom will confront my way. 

702
00:45:49,900 --> 00:45:54,000
My will, the self will be 
obstinate the in my position to 

703
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:57,500
selfishly ambitious. 
I mean, it's all this stuff 

704
00:45:57,500 --> 00:46:01,300
starts rising to the surface 
only because Jesus knows what I 

705
00:46:01,308 --> 00:46:04,600
have to give you a return far. 
Outweighs what you're holding on

706
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:08,500
to. 
It's a matter of value, it's a 

707
00:46:08,508 --> 00:46:12,200
matter of Honor. 
In verse 22. 

708
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:16,300
It says he was dismayed by this 
demand and went away grieving. 

709
00:46:16,300 --> 00:46:20,200
Why? 
Because he had many possessions 

710
00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:23,700
Jesus goes on and he relates 
this to entering the kingdom 

711
00:46:23,700 --> 00:46:25,800
because in verse 23 he looked 
around and he said to his 

712
00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:29,900
disciples how hard it is. 
For those who have wealth to 

713
00:46:29,900 --> 00:46:33,500
here, it is, enter the kingdom. 
That's what got us started on 

714
00:46:33,500 --> 00:46:35,100
this whole thing in John chapter
3. 

715
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:39,500
Unless you're born again, you 
cannot see or enter the kingdom.

716
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:44,300
Why are we coming to church? 
Feeling notebooks, highlighting,

717
00:46:44,300 --> 00:46:47,300
Bibles listening to podcast 
accumulating. 

718
00:46:47,300 --> 00:46:51,900
All this is because we have been
more interested in what we gain 

719
00:46:51,900 --> 00:46:58,000
than what we give. 
Be leery of a kingdom that 

720
00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:03,300
doesn't require anything of you.
He goes on, he talks to his 

721
00:47:03,300 --> 00:47:06,700
disciples, his disciples say, 
you know, my goodness if he 

722
00:47:06,700 --> 00:47:09,100
can't get in the Kingdom. 
Now there's no hope for any of 

723
00:47:09,100 --> 00:47:10,400
us. 
Poor broke little fisherman. 

724
00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:14,800
He says, I'm not talking about 
natural will I'm talking about 

725
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:18,900
what you deem valuable in verse 
28, Peters tells him. 

726
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:24,100
Look I could just see Peter like
hey whoa, we left everything and

727
00:47:24,100 --> 00:47:29,500
followed you That's not us. 
That's him. 

728
00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:33,600
We've left it all, man. 
You said come follow me. 

729
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:35,600
I'll make you Fishers of Men. 
We put down the net. 

730
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:38,800
I came followed you. 
We left home, we left, follow, 

731
00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:41,200
we left mother, we left Comfort.
We left familiarity with 

732
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:43,300
everything. 
We knew we left our jobs. 

733
00:47:43,700 --> 00:47:45,700
We left it all. 
They were here. 

734
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:52,700
We're here. 
In the Amplified, verse 23, Mark

735
00:47:52,700 --> 00:47:56,600
10 verse 23, Jesus looked around
and said to his disciples, with 

736
00:47:56,600 --> 00:48:00,200
what difficulty, all those who 
possess wealth, and keep on 

737
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:06,900
holding it. 
I received it with joy, but I 

738
00:48:06,908 --> 00:48:11,400
kept holding. 
There's a better response. 

739
00:48:14,300 --> 00:48:17,000
Receiving a word and failing to 
respond to it. 

740
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:19,500
Will still not produce the 
desired result. 

741
00:48:21,900 --> 00:48:28,000
What's the proper response? 
Josh and I we've been talking 

742
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:29,400
Josh clay back there, we've been
talking. 

743
00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:32,200
Like I said, last several days, 
I'm going to give him credit on 

744
00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:37,000
one, we shoot each other a 
little little text and things 

745
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:38,800
I'll give him credit on one. 
He said this. 

746
00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:42,200
How do you know if someone has 
the kingdom when they have 

747
00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:48,700
nothing left but the kingdom The
mystery. 

748
00:48:49,900 --> 00:48:51,800
Hidden. 
Hidden. 

749
00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:55,100
Not from you. 
But for you, how do you know 

750
00:48:55,100 --> 00:48:58,400
when someone has the kingdom 
when they have nothing left but 

751
00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:05,100
the kingdom Matthew 6:33 in the 
Amplified reads this way but 

752
00:49:05,100 --> 00:49:09,600
seek a mat and strive after a 
love that. 

753
00:49:11,900 --> 00:49:16,100
First of all, his kingdom and 
his righteousness, his way of 

754
00:49:16,100 --> 00:49:19,200
doing and being, right? 
We talked about yielded - 

755
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:21,200
yesterday. 
We talked about obedience 

756
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:24,200
yesterday, we talked about the 
posture of the heart yesterday 

757
00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:28,300
and then what all these things 
taken together will be giving 

758
00:49:28,300 --> 00:49:32,800
you besides, notice what you 
gain in response to giving up. 

759
00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:39,100
God never asked for you to give 
at your deficiency. 

760
00:49:42,300 --> 00:49:45,300
He always asks you to give so 
that you can gain Colossians 

761
00:49:45,300 --> 00:49:48,600
chapter 3. 
Colossians chapter 3 and verse 

762
00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:52,700
1. 
I'm going to read this in the 

763
00:49:52,700 --> 00:49:55,200
Amplified, we'll just go 
straight to the Amplified you 

764
00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:57,400
know if you were raised with 
Christ seek those things which 

765
00:49:57,400 --> 00:49:59,700
are above, let's read it in the 
Amplified verse 1. 

766
00:49:59,700 --> 00:50:03,400
If then you have been raised 
with Christ, notice that raising

767
00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:10,800
with Christ's Kingdom rise but 
there is following action 

768
00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:14,600
required. 
If then you have been raised 

769
00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:17,400
with Christ meaning since you 
it's that that word. 

770
00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:22,000
If is actually defined since 
since you have been Is with 

771
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:26,600
Christ. 
Here's the appropriate response.

772
00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:35,800
Since you have been raised with 
Christ to a new life, thus 

773
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:38,900
sharing his resurrection from 
the dead. 

774
00:50:38,900 --> 00:50:45,900
Here it is again, a mat and seek
the rich Eternal, what is what 

775
00:50:45,900 --> 00:50:48,500
we're talking about. 
The treasure in the field, The 

776
00:50:48,500 --> 00:50:51,200
Mystery of the Kingdom, the 
hidden thing. 

777
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:54,400
No one takes treasures and just 
leaves it, laying around, and 

778
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:59,200
commonplaces your word. 
Have I hid in my heart that I 

779
00:50:59,208 --> 00:51:02,000
might not what The appropriate 
response. 

780
00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:07,100
I don't get the response of not 
sinning until I value and hide 

781
00:51:07,100 --> 00:51:10,800
the word, treasure the word 
value. 

782
00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:21,000
The word honor, the word The 
rich Eternal Treasures that are 

783
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:26,000
above where Christ is seated at 
the right hand of the father 

784
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:28,800
verse 2 and set your minds and 
here it is. 

785
00:51:29,300 --> 00:51:33,000
Keep them said, I don't know how
many times I've heard someone 

786
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:36,800
minister at Kingdom message come
back a year later, and it's 

787
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:40,400
absent, you can. 
It's evident, it's not there, 

788
00:51:41,300 --> 00:51:45,100
it's not it's not least, they're
not lacing the kingdom. 

789
00:51:45,300 --> 00:51:48,200
To every weaving, the kingdom 
intertwine in the kingdom, and 

790
00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:50,900
every element, the way that it 
ought to be, you can tell the 

791
00:51:50,900 --> 00:51:56,800
difference. it's because they 
set their mind but they didn't 

792
00:51:56,900 --> 00:52:00,300
stay said, there's a there's 
another action involved here, 

793
00:52:00,300 --> 00:52:05,100
set your minds and keep them set
on what is above, which tells me

794
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:10,700
that there is something trying 
to get me to get my mind off of 

795
00:52:10,700 --> 00:52:14,200
the things that I once, had them
set on, whether it be the 

796
00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:18,500
persecutions of the trials of 
life, Or whether it be the 

797
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:21,100
busyness and distractions of 
life. 

798
00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:31,400
Set your minds and keep them set
on what is above the higher 

799
00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:34,900
things, not on the things that 
are on the earth. 

800
00:52:35,900 --> 00:52:38,600
For as far as this world is 
concerned, you have died. 

801
00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:46,800
You have died and your new real 
life is what? 

802
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:52,000
I love when it comes full 
circle. 

803
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:56,600
A mystery. 
Is what hidden thing? 

804
00:52:58,100 --> 00:53:01,800
Your life is a mystery. 
A mystery that should be 

805
00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:04,700
discovered. 
A mystery that needs to be 

806
00:53:04,700 --> 00:53:07,600
unveiled. 
He wants to make known to the 

807
00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:11,300
mysteries of the Kingdom. 
The mystery of his plan from the

808
00:53:11,300 --> 00:53:14,400
beginning of times. 
Before the beginning of the age,

809
00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:17,300
what he put in place, what he 
set in motion for you? 

810
00:53:17,300 --> 00:53:22,400
And I, it's a mystery and it 
requires value, honor urgency 

811
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:26,000
and intentionality to go in and 
dig up this treasure. 

812
00:53:26,100 --> 00:53:27,700
But what is the price? 
You'll pay. 

813
00:53:27,700 --> 00:53:29,500
What is the cost that you'll 
pay? 

814
00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:32,800
Because if it doesn't cost you 
anything, it won't be worth 

815
00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:33,500
anything. 
Ng. 

816
00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:39,000
One more in the message and 
we'll wrap it up here. 

817
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:41,400
So if you're serious about 
living, this new Resurrection 

818
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:44,600
Life with Christ. 
Anybody serious? 

819
00:53:46,500 --> 00:53:48,900
The implication is that there 
are those that aren't serious. 

820
00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:57,400
If you're serious about living, 
this new Resurrection Life with 

821
00:53:57,400 --> 00:54:01,500
Christ act like it. 
There's a better response. 

822
00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:06,900
He says, pursue the things over,
which Christ presides. 

823
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:13,500
Don't shuffle along eyes to the 
ground, absorbed with the things

824
00:54:13,500 --> 00:54:17,500
right in front of you. 
The things right in front of 

825
00:54:17,500 --> 00:54:19,600
you, this is what he's saying, 
is, you're missing what's right 

826
00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:22,700
in front of you, because you're 
distracted by the things all 

827
00:54:22,700 --> 00:54:30,600
around you. 
Look up, he says be alert to 

828
00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:36,000
what is going on around Christ. 
That's where the action is see. 

829
00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:40,800
Things from his perspective, 
your old life is dead, your new 

830
00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:48,900
life, which is your real life 
even though invisible, it's a 

831
00:54:48,900 --> 00:54:53,700
Spectators is with Christ in 
God. 

832
00:54:53,700 --> 00:54:59,200
He is your life. 
We must learn to Value the 

833
00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:01,600
