33
00:01:45,500 --> 00:01:49,000
you'll pastor always with 
sharing last night and talking 

34
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,900
about who we are and what we are
and how weird operating these 

35
00:01:51,900 --> 00:01:53,800
things have been a theme this 
week. 

36
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,900
God is renewing within us. 
Who we are. 

37
00:01:57,900 --> 00:02:00,500
Our purpose. 
How to live in the, the 

38
00:02:00,500 --> 00:02:02,100
authority of the Kingdom. 
Amen. 

39
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,300
Praise God. 
We're going to start today in 

40
00:02:04,300 --> 00:02:07,000
Luke's gospel. 
The first chapter, and I'm going

41
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,000
to, I'm just going to share some
things and teach some things 

42
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,500
today. 
I believe that will help you to 

43
00:02:12,500 --> 00:02:17,200
navigate through life and 
through this life and learn some

44
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,900
things about how to operate in 
your Authority as a kingdom, 

45
00:02:20,900 --> 00:02:24,200
believer, and find out that if 
there are certain things going 

46
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,600
on, In your life, you're not 
missing it. 

47
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,000
There's certain attacks going on
in your life. 

48
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,800
You're not in sin. 
Amen. 

49
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,400
If things haven't broken loose 
yet, it doesn't mean that you're

50
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,600
not in faith. 
Okay, it just means that you're 

51
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,900
living in this certain age that 
you're going to have to deal 

52
00:02:45,900 --> 00:02:47,200
with some of this stuff. 
Amen. 

53
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,700
And so, what we're going to do 
is this if I was going to tie 

54
00:02:50,700 --> 00:02:54,200
dive just say, you know, one 
Kingdom with two ages, 

55
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,200
hallelujah. 
Amen. 

56
00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:00,200
So here in Luke chapter 1, the 
Lord sends the Gable down. 

57
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,500
We're going to pick it up in 
verse 30, and it says, then the 

58
00:03:03,500 --> 00:03:06,700
angel said to her, said to Mary,
do not be afraid. 

59
00:03:06,700 --> 00:03:08,500
Mary for you, have found favor 
with God. 

60
00:03:08,500 --> 00:03:11,700
Behold, you will conceive. 
Conceive in your womb and bring 

61
00:03:11,700 --> 00:03:14,100
forth a son and shall call his 
name Jesus. 

62
00:03:14,500 --> 00:03:19,400
He will be great him and he will
be called the son of the 

63
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,500
highest. 
And the Lord God will give him 

64
00:03:22,500 --> 00:03:26,400
the Throne of his father David. 
And he will reign over the house

65
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,400
of Jacob forever and of his 
kingdom, there will be no end. 

66
00:03:31,300 --> 00:03:34,900
Now this is the Angel, Gabriel 
God's messenger, angel coming to

67
00:03:34,900 --> 00:03:37,200
tell Mary what God is about to 
do. 

68
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,200
And what he is saying, is this 
God is going to supernaturally 

69
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,500
conceive in your womb, the son 
of the Living God, and he's 

70
00:03:43,500 --> 00:03:46,500
coming to be the Son of God in 
manifestation. 

71
00:03:46,500 --> 00:03:49,100
He's coming to be God back with 
you. 

72
00:03:49,100 --> 00:03:51,800
And his purpose is this. 
He's going to be a king. 

73
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,700
He's going to rule over the 
throw, sit on the throne of 

74
00:03:54,700 --> 00:03:56,800
David. 
He's going to rule over the 

75
00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,400
house of Jacob and when he gets 
finished, his kingdom is going 

76
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,600
to be so strong. 
So powerful and so mighty there 

77
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,600
will be no end to it. 
Amen. 

78
00:04:05,700 --> 00:04:08,900
And we know the kingdom means 
Kings domain, or Dominion 

79
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,500
Authority and Rule and so, 
therefore, he's saying, when the

80
00:04:12,500 --> 00:04:15,900
son that you're going to 
conceive comes and God manifest 

81
00:04:15,900 --> 00:04:19,700
himself through the sun, he 
becomes the king, he's going to 

82
00:04:19,700 --> 00:04:22,900
set up his rule, his Reign, his 
Dominion forever and ever and 

83
00:04:22,900 --> 00:04:24,700
ever. 
And there's not going to be an 

84
00:04:24,700 --> 00:04:27,500
enemy that's going to be 
powerful enough to ever topple 

85
00:04:27,500 --> 00:04:30,500
his kingdom. 
Amen. 

86
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,500
So He's saying this that the 
kingdom of God is going to be so

87
00:04:34,500 --> 00:04:37,000
great. 
With this new King, sitting on 

88
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,700
the throne, that they'll be no 
enemy that will ever be able to 

89
00:04:40,700 --> 00:04:41,900
overcome it. 
Praise God. 

90
00:04:42,500 --> 00:04:44,200
Now that's the kingdom. 
We're talking about. 

91
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,200
Amen. 
Now in Luke's Gospel of the 16th

92
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,400
chapter. 
I want you to see something. 

93
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:54,200
Here will tie this in in Luke 
chapter, 16 and verse 16. 

94
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:59,500
We re down here in the Lord 
Jesus is speaking to the 

95
00:04:59,508 --> 00:05:01,900
Pharisees. 
He says the law of the Prophets 

96
00:05:02,100 --> 00:05:05,800
were until John told about John 
the Baptist since that time the 

97
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,200
kingdom of God has been preached
and everyone is pressing into 

98
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:13,200
it. 
Now, the angel announces that 

99
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:18,100
God's kingdom is coming back to 
humanity through a king being 

100
00:05:18,100 --> 00:05:21,300
born into the Earth. 
And then we don't hear much 

101
00:05:21,300 --> 00:05:26,500
about the kingdom until the Lord
Jesus is baptized in the River 

102
00:05:26,500 --> 00:05:29,800
Jordan by John and he comes up 
out of the water and the Holy 

103
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:33,200
Spirit comes down upon him and 
he's filled with the Holy 

104
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,400
Spirit. 
John 3:34 says he received the 

105
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,000
spirit of God without measuring 
other words. 

106
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,100
He was fully baptized or 
anointed by the Holy Spirit. 

107
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,500
And we know that because Luke 
chapter 4, then talks about he 

108
00:05:43,500 --> 00:05:47,100
then went in the power of the 
spirit and was led by the spirit

109
00:05:47,100 --> 00:05:50,700
Into the Wilderness, a man. 
So Us begin to do this. 

110
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:55,700
And so then we find out also 
that in John 1:29. 

111
00:05:55,700 --> 00:05:59,000
A John steps up whenever he sees
the Lord Jesus coming. 

112
00:05:59,300 --> 00:06:02,500
And he says this Behold the Lamb
of God that takes away the sin 

113
00:06:02,500 --> 00:06:06,100
of the world. 
So the angel Gabriel announced 

114
00:06:06,100 --> 00:06:09,600
to Mary, who her son was going 
to be. 

115
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:14,700
And John was raised up by God to
prepare the way for the son. 

116
00:06:14,700 --> 00:06:18,700
The Messiah, the king, and John 
on the River, Jordan looks up 

117
00:06:18,700 --> 00:06:22,500
and sees Coming and by the 
spirit of God says, Behold the 

118
00:06:22,500 --> 00:06:26,100
Lamb of God that takes away the 
sin of the world, here comes the

119
00:06:26,100 --> 00:06:28,200
one. 
And here's the reason that the 

120
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,900
children of Israel missed it is 
because they were looking for a 

121
00:06:31,900 --> 00:06:36,500
Conquering Hero to come in and 
just overcome Rome and set up 

122
00:06:36,500 --> 00:06:38,200
the kingdom and they were going 
to rule. 

123
00:06:38,300 --> 00:06:39,900
He's going to be this mighty 
king. 

124
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,900
But the John describes this new 
king, as the Lamb of God, that 

125
00:06:43,900 --> 00:06:48,600
takes away the sin of the world.
Well what's the conflict here? 

126
00:06:48,900 --> 00:06:54,800
Jesus came the first time as the
Lamb of God and as a king, who 

127
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:59,200
would be set in a place where he
would experience all the things 

128
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:03,300
that you and I experience. 
Hebrews 2 says he's a high 

129
00:07:03,300 --> 00:07:07,300
priest and as a high priest, 
he's touched by the infirmities 

130
00:07:07,300 --> 00:07:09,100
that we go through. 
In the feelings, we go through, 

131
00:07:09,100 --> 00:07:11,700
he feels everything by because 
he's been tempted with 

132
00:07:11,700 --> 00:07:14,200
everything. 
As we were see, Jesus didn't 

133
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,000
come to the Earth to be a 
totality. 

134
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,800
Therrien. 
King that would just ruled by 

135
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,200
with without Mercy or anything 
and just come in my way or the 

136
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,100
highway. 
But Jesus came first to 

137
00:07:25,100 --> 00:07:27,900
experience all that man was 
having to experience and go 

138
00:07:27,900 --> 00:07:30,000
through. 
So when he said on his throne, 

139
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,000
he would be a benevolent. 
Loving King, who would be 

140
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,500
touched by, what we're going 
through and be there with a 

141
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,700
sensitivity to help us to get 
through it. 

142
00:07:37,700 --> 00:07:40,200
How they lujah. 
Amen. 

143
00:07:40,300 --> 00:07:42,700
And that's the king. 
We have sitting on the throne 

144
00:07:42,700 --> 00:07:45,500
today. 
A king that cannot be touched. 

145
00:07:46,700 --> 00:07:47,900
By the feeling of our 
infirmities. 

146
00:07:47,900 --> 00:07:50,200
He meant, he is touched. 
He is moved. 

147
00:07:50,300 --> 00:07:52,200
He's Minister. 
He's there to love us and take 

148
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:53,400
care of us. 
Praise God. 

149
00:07:53,700 --> 00:07:56,300
Now, the king is wrote was 
looking for from the Old 

150
00:07:56,300 --> 00:07:58,400
Testament. 
Prophets is about to return. 

151
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:02,300
Hallelujah. 
Amen. 

152
00:08:02,900 --> 00:08:06,100
And when he returns this time, 
he will look like a king. 

153
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,300
Praise God. 
But you've got to understand 

154
00:08:10,300 --> 00:08:13,100
something. 
Here, this church age or the 

155
00:08:13,100 --> 00:08:16,800
kingdom of God was introduced 
back to humanity. 

156
00:08:16,900 --> 00:08:20,100
Through Gabriel when he spoke to
Mary and told her that the King 

157
00:08:20,100 --> 00:08:22,600
was coming. 
Amen. 

158
00:08:23,500 --> 00:08:26,600
After the baptism of John notice
there in Luke 16, he said that 

159
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,200
the law and the prophets were 
preached until John the Baptist 

160
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,300
up until John came the law and 
the prophets. 

161
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,700
Office were the message that was
being preached but when John 

162
00:08:34,700 --> 00:08:38,900
comes along, John begins to 
prepare people for the king and 

163
00:08:38,900 --> 00:08:42,500
the kingdom of God. 
And so the kingdom of God began 

164
00:08:42,500 --> 00:08:45,100
to be priests with John and 
Jesus steps up. 

165
00:08:45,100 --> 00:08:48,400
And the very first message is 
that the Lord Jesus preaches. 

166
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:53,600
After the baptism of John is the
gospel of the Kingdom, meaning 

167
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:54,800
what? 
The change? 

168
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:58,800
Took place there, Hallelujah, 
the kingdom was introduced 

169
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,300
through Gabriel but then the 
king himself. 

170
00:09:01,500 --> 00:09:05,200
Begin to bring it forth in the 
preaching of the Gospel. 

171
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,400
Hallelujah. 
Now let me show you look in 

172
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,800
Mark's gospel. 
The first chapter over here in 

173
00:09:09,808 --> 00:09:13,900
Mark chapter 1. 
The Lord Jesus begins. 

174
00:09:13,900 --> 00:09:17,300
His ministry will pick it up in 
verse 14. 

175
00:09:19,500 --> 00:09:25,400
And it says as yeah. 
Now after John was set was put 

176
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:26,900
in prison. 
See, Jesus does. 

177
00:09:26,900 --> 00:09:30,000
Is Jesus came to Galilee what 
was he doing when he came to 

178
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,000
Galilee preaching, the gospel of
the message of the good news of 

179
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,600
the kingdom of God and saying 
the time is fulfilled and the 

180
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,600
kingdom of God is at hand, 
repent, and believe in the 

181
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,600
gospel. 
Now, the Lord, not only 

182
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,500
preaches, the gospel of the 
Kingdom, but the Lord, Jesus, 

183
00:09:45,500 --> 00:09:47,900
now, comes and tells you how to 
get into the kingdom. 

184
00:09:49,300 --> 00:09:52,500
Amen. 
And it begins with repentance. 

185
00:09:53,100 --> 00:09:55,800
Now, there's a difference in 
Repentance and remorse. 

186
00:09:58,300 --> 00:10:01,400
Amen. 
When Judas messed up and 

187
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,400
realized he messed up, he was 
remorseful and went out and hung

188
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,500
himself. 
Remorseful means I'm sad. 

189
00:10:07,500 --> 00:10:10,300
I got caught, but if I could do 
it again, I probably would. 

190
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,600
Amen. 
Repentance is not only a 

191
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,600
Brokenness or sadness that 
you've done something wrong. 

192
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,600
It's a revelation that you're 
wrong and it is a complete 

193
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,300
withdrawal from that wrongness 
to turn to what is right. 

194
00:10:25,500 --> 00:10:28,900
What Jesus is teaching here in 
this when he says repent he 

195
00:10:28,900 --> 00:10:33,400
saying you need to turn from 
having rule over your own life 

196
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:37,000
and trying to control it 
yourself and turn that rule and 

197
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:41,400
roll over to me so that I now 
have rule I now have authority 

198
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,800
in your Life and now I'm the one
directing your steps. 

199
00:10:46,700 --> 00:10:50,000
So we can say like this when the
Lord is preaching the gospel and

200
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,900
says, repent believe the gospel.
He's saying quit being your own 

201
00:10:52,900 --> 00:10:59,900
King and make me your king. 
Amen. 

202
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,200
Quit being your own God. 
Doing your own thing in your own

203
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,500
self and turn to me and let me 
become your God. 

204
00:11:07,500 --> 00:11:09,800
Let me begin to direct you. 
Let me begin to be your 

205
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,500
strength. 
And he says, what you have to do

206
00:11:12,500 --> 00:11:16,300
is this you have to go from 
being your own source to 

207
00:11:16,300 --> 00:11:18,800
believing the word that I have 
for you. 

208
00:11:18,900 --> 00:11:21,800
And operating according to the 
word that I give you. 

209
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:24,800
That's how you get in the 
Kingdom. 

210
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,000
How many of you found out? 
You just don't go. 

211
00:11:27,100 --> 00:11:30,900
Forward in a church service 
kneel down say God forgive me. 

212
00:11:31,100 --> 00:11:33,500
I'm really sorry. 
I did this and the best I can 

213
00:11:33,500 --> 00:11:34,900
and will live for you and your 
leave. 

214
00:11:34,900 --> 00:11:40,300
Nothing happened in your life. 
Jesus is saying you've come to 

215
00:11:40,300 --> 00:11:43,400
the place where you're so sick 
and tired of the way it is. 

216
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,100
And you realize that we are 
doing is not going to get you 

217
00:11:46,108 --> 00:11:49,300
anywhere and you can't change it
and you're tired of trying to be

218
00:11:49,300 --> 00:11:52,000
the head and Lord and king of 
your own life, and you need 

219
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,000
help. 
And Lord, I'm making a complete 

220
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,500
turn from what I'm doing to you.
I'm going to God. 

221
00:11:58,500 --> 00:12:01,100
Instead of being rebellious to, 
I'm going to be submissive to 

222
00:12:01,100 --> 00:12:04,000
you. 
I'm turning to you for help and 

223
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,600
your will to be done in my life.
That's true repentance. 

224
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,200
And it takes commitment to 
because you drop down to verse 

225
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,200
17. 
And whenever Jesus found that, 

226
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,500
you know, he started calling the
disciples, he says, then Jesus 

227
00:12:18,500 --> 00:12:21,100
said to them, follow me and I 
will make you to become Fishers 

228
00:12:21,100 --> 00:12:23,900
of Men and immediately left 
their Nets and followed him. 

229
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:25,200
You know, you could tell it like
this. 

230
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:30,200
The Amplified says he said, 
follow me become my disciples 

231
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,100
and I'll make you Fishers of 
Men. 

232
00:12:33,100 --> 00:12:34,800
Learn of me. 
In other words, make the 

233
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:36,800
decision to commit yourself to 
me. 

234
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:41,100
Walk after me, And learn of me 
become a disciple. 

235
00:12:41,100 --> 00:12:44,000
And when you do, I'll change 
your life from being A Life. 

236
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,600
That's All About You To A Life. 
That's all about the kingdom and

237
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,400
me. 
Amen. 

238
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,800
Because you'll become a fisher 
men, you'll become an influencer

239
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,200
to the world of the good news 
that I'm bringing to them that 

240
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,500
they can now be saved from their
sins to amen. 

241
00:13:00,300 --> 00:13:02,200
But notice you have to be a 
follower. 

242
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,700
You have to what true repentance
means. 

243
00:13:04,700 --> 00:13:07,400
I, my life is going to be 
changed from this day forward. 

244
00:13:08,500 --> 00:13:12,900
Amen. 
Whenever I repented and gave my 

245
00:13:12,900 --> 00:13:15,200
heart to the Lord, I did. 
So because I didn't like the 

246
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,400
life I had, Didn't like what I 
was doing. 

247
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,600
Didn't like way of felt. 
Didn't like what was going on? 

248
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,000
Didn't like the actions. 
I was done. 

249
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,000
I did and I'd realized I 
couldn't change it myself. 

250
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,500
So I turned to the Lord and he 
changed it. 

251
00:13:27,500 --> 00:13:30,800
Hallelujah. 
Because whenever I gave my heart

252
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,900
to the Lord, I changed Kings 
because whether you like it or 

253
00:13:33,908 --> 00:13:37,200
not, you're either serving King 
Jesus or your servant King 

254
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:43,000
devil. 
Because the Lord said, you're 

255
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,600
either with me and Matthew, he 
said, you're either with me or 

256
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,800
you're against me because there 
is no middle the road here. 

257
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:50,900
You're even the kingdom of God. 
You're in the kingdom of 

258
00:13:50,900 --> 00:13:54,000
darkness. 
You either under the lordship 

259
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,500
and King and Rule of the Lord 
Jesus Christ, are you under the 

260
00:13:56,500 --> 00:14:01,300
lordship of the devil? 
One of them is now directing 

261
00:14:01,300 --> 00:14:03,800
your path. 
Determining, what you have, 

262
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:09,200
where you go and where you end 
up So I chose to go with the 

263
00:14:09,208 --> 00:14:10,100
winter. 
Hallelujah! 

264
00:14:10,100 --> 00:14:12,600
Amen. 
And I chose the Lord. 

265
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,200
Jesus Christ. 
Praise God. 

266
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,200
Now, you're right there. 
In, Mark, go to marks the tenth 

267
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,100
chapter, and here's where we 
were setting this up to get to 

268
00:14:20,100 --> 00:14:24,500
praise God. 
Mark, chapter 10 and I'm sure 

269
00:14:24,500 --> 00:14:27,800
we, you know, the story and, but
we're going to touch on a little

270
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:28,800
bit. 
We're going to begin in verse 

271
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,700
17. 
Talk about the Rich, Young 

272
00:14:30,700 --> 00:14:32,500
Ruler. 
And it says this. 

273
00:14:32,500 --> 00:14:37,400
Now as he was going on the road,
talking about the Lord Jesus. 

274
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,600
There came. 
Came to him and knelt before him

275
00:14:39,900 --> 00:14:43,100
and asked him sit and he said, 
good teacher. 

276
00:14:43,500 --> 00:14:46,400
What shall I do that? 
I may inherit eternal life. 

277
00:14:46,900 --> 00:14:49,600
So Jesus said to him, why do you
call me good? 

278
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:54,300
No one is good. 
But God alone but one that's 

279
00:14:54,300 --> 00:14:56,800
God. 
Now notice here, the Lord's. 

280
00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,600
Yeah, I want one who say that 
Lord knows this this this this 

281
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:04,600
young man comes running to Jesus
and he says, good Master. 

282
00:15:04,900 --> 00:15:06,800
What do I need to do to inherit 
eternal life? 

283
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,200
Now, we think about an eternal 
life. 

284
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,200
We think about living forever. 
But eternal life, here, Zoe the 

285
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,200
god, kind of. 
How do I get the kind of life 

286
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:17,900
you got How do I enter into a 
life? 

287
00:15:17,900 --> 00:15:19,600
That's greater than the life 
I've got. 

288
00:15:20,900 --> 00:15:22,800
And knows the Lord says, why do 
you call me? 

289
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,400
Good. 
There's only one good and that's

290
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,700
God. 
The Lord is testing him. 

291
00:15:27,900 --> 00:15:30,900
He's coming to him and saying 
basically he's looking and 

292
00:15:30,900 --> 00:15:37,000
saying do you recognize me as 
God incarnate as the Son of God?

293
00:15:37,100 --> 00:15:39,900
Who is one here? 
Who has come from God, or do you

294
00:15:39,900 --> 00:15:42,300
recognize me just as another 
good teacher? 

295
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,200
Are you sincerely? 
Wanting a change in your life by

296
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:49,500
looking to me as deity and as 
God as the Messiah or you coming

297
00:15:49,500 --> 00:15:53,700
to me as a Good teacher that 
will just add to your profile 

298
00:15:53,700 --> 00:15:59,300
and help you in life. 
Because how you approach the 

299
00:15:59,300 --> 00:16:01,700
Lord is going to determine what 
you get from me. 

300
00:16:04,700 --> 00:16:07,300
When I came to the Lord Jesus 
Christ, I didn't come to a good 

301
00:16:07,300 --> 00:16:11,000
teacher. 
I didn't come to a historical 

302
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,900
figure. 
I didn't come to somebody. 

303
00:16:13,900 --> 00:16:15,700
That's going to come back, 
someday. 

304
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:20,000
I came to a living and Lord 
savior Redeemer, king of kings 

305
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,300
and Lord. 
I came to, he became real, he 

306
00:16:22,300 --> 00:16:26,500
was God to me, hey, men Jesus 
out, he wasn't just good. 

307
00:16:26,500 --> 00:16:31,200
He's God. 
And so the Lord has is locating 

308
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,100
where this man is. 
We're what's your mold is why 

309
00:16:34,100 --> 00:16:36,200
are you wanting this kind of 
life? 

310
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,100
Because to give this life, you 
have to understand who I am 

311
00:16:41,100 --> 00:16:44,000
because this life flows out of 
me, you can't have this life 

312
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:45,200
without him. 
Amen. 

313
00:16:46,300 --> 00:16:48,200
So it doesn't start with eternal
life. 

314
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:53,100
It starts with the one who gives
eternal life Amen. 

315
00:16:53,700 --> 00:16:56,500
And so the Lord is teaching here
and he's showing us. 

316
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,000
So, Jesus said to him, why do 
you call me good? 

317
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,100
No one is good. 
But one that is God. 

318
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,300
You know, the Commandments? 
No, she didn't say do you. 

319
00:17:04,300 --> 00:17:08,400
He said, you know, so the Lord 
knows this guy in Amazing when 

320
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,300
we come to the Lord, he already 
knows as we might as well get 

321
00:17:11,300 --> 00:17:16,300
honest. 
Amen. 

322
00:17:17,599 --> 00:17:20,400
Well Lord, you know I really 
believe in the Lord says no. 

323
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:25,200
I really know you don't believe 
it. 

324
00:17:26,099 --> 00:17:29,000
So the Lord says this he looks 
and says, you know, the 

325
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:34,300
Commandments do not commit 
adultery Do not murder, do not 

326
00:17:34,300 --> 00:17:38,000
steal, do not bear false, 
witness do not defraud, honor 

327
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,000
your father and your mother and 
he answered and said to him, 

328
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:45,800
teacher all these things I have 
kept from my youth. 

329
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,700
Okay, Gordon knew that said, you
know, these things and the young

330
00:17:50,700 --> 00:17:54,100
man says I've done that. 
See, it's still all about him. 

331
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,700
What do I do to get eternal 
life? 

332
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:04,900
I've kept all these things. 
I've been successful, I've been 

333
00:18:04,900 --> 00:18:07,800
prosperous. 
I have a good standing in the 

334
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,300
community. 
I have great potential because 

335
00:18:11,300 --> 00:18:13,300
I'm young and they tell me 
already. 

336
00:18:13,300 --> 00:18:16,900
I'm doing great things. 
I have done all of these things.

337
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:19,500
Notice it. 
He's still looking at himself, 

338
00:18:19,500 --> 00:18:22,300
he still, he still the center of
his life. 

339
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,300
Okay. 
So look what happens. 

340
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,300
And Jesus looking at him loved 
him. 

341
00:18:30,900 --> 00:18:35,400
Everybody say Jesus loved him. 
The words of the Lord are going 

342
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:39,600
to give to him are not words of 
being mad at him upset with him.

343
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:44,200
Trying to put him in his place. 
Jesus is speaking out of love. 

344
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:49,000
Jesus loves this young man and 
Jesus is already seen into his 

345
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,000
heart. 
Jesus knows everything is going 

346
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,000
on his life. 
He's already set him up. 

347
00:18:55,300 --> 00:18:58,600
To have to make a decision. 
Amen. 

348
00:18:59,300 --> 00:19:03,200
So this read then, Jesus looking
at him, loved him and said to 

349
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:07,100
him. 
One thing you like man, the Lord

350
00:19:07,100 --> 00:19:09,800
looked at me and said, love me 
said about 100 things. 

351
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:15,300
You praise God, that's pretty 
good. 

352
00:19:15,300 --> 00:19:16,900
This guy. 
He said one thing you like, 

353
00:19:16,900 --> 00:19:19,500
here's, here's the, you could 
say it like this. 

354
00:19:19,500 --> 00:19:27,700
So the most important thing you 
lack, The one thing that's the 

355
00:19:27,700 --> 00:19:30,400
most important over you, keeping
these Commandments. 

356
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,100
You, prospering you've been 
having good standing in your 

357
00:19:33,100 --> 00:19:35,000
community, you trying to be a 
good person. 

358
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:40,500
The most important thing you're 
lacking and here it is one thing

359
00:19:40,500 --> 00:19:44,000
you like, go your way. 
So whatever you have and give to

360
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,900
the poor and you will have 
treasure in heaven, and come 

361
00:19:46,900 --> 00:19:51,300
take up the cross and follow me.
But he was, he was sat at his 

362
00:19:51,300 --> 00:19:53,500
word and went away sorrowful 
for. 

363
00:19:53,500 --> 00:19:57,200
He had great possessions. 
And then Jesus looked around and

364
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:01,700
said to his disciples, how hard 
is it for those who have riches 

365
00:20:01,700 --> 00:20:05,100
to enter the kingdom of God? 
Hm. 

366
00:20:06,100 --> 00:20:09,800
Now let's read on because right 
now you think you know you can't

367
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:14,000
be rich and big Christian. 
Love people say that. 

368
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:19,000
And then if we preach the 
poverty mentality, if you're 

369
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,900
going to make Chris you have to 
suffer their life. 

370
00:20:20,900 --> 00:20:24,300
And yeah then just live on the 
handouts that fall from Heaven, 

371
00:20:28,300 --> 00:20:31,600
okay? 
But let's let the Lord continued

372
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:33,400
on here. 
Let's don't break him off in his

373
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:38,000
sus and so, okay, then verse 23 
again, then Jesus looked around 

374
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,500
and said to his disciples, how 
hard is it for those who have 

375
00:20:40,700 --> 00:20:42,200
richest in the kingdom of 
heaven? 

376
00:20:42,300 --> 00:20:45,500
And his disciples were 
astonished at his word. 

377
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,200
Now why would the disciples be 
astonished at his words? 

378
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,800
If they didn't already were 
experiencing blessings in their 

379
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,800
life? 
You know, if I'm poor and 

380
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,300
Beatdown hungry, you know, I 
would have said yes. 

381
00:20:57,300 --> 00:20:58,600
That's right. 
Amen. 

382
00:21:02,300 --> 00:21:05,900
But you know, Peter had already 
gone out and got a boatload 

383
00:21:05,900 --> 00:21:10,100
sinking, net of fish tour. 
The market up. 

384
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,100
I mean, they'd already taken 
that, you know, a few fish and a

385
00:21:17,100 --> 00:21:20,200
few loaves of bread and broken 
fed over 5,000 people. 

386
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:25,300
So, they were hurting, okay, and
The Disciples of already seeing 

387
00:21:25,300 --> 00:21:27,500
that limb for God's a pretty 
good thing. 

388
00:21:28,500 --> 00:21:30,400
Because he Supernatural taking 
care of us. 

389
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:34,500
So when they said it's hard to 
be rich and get in they went I 

390
00:21:34,500 --> 00:21:38,700
got a pretty nice cloak here and
got a nice bowtie cuz I got to 

391
00:21:41,100 --> 00:21:43,600
and so they're just kind of like
us today. 

392
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:48,200
They jump to conclusions. 
Supposed to be poor Beatdown 

393
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,000
dredging through life, living a 
Christianity. 

394
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,900
But one day. 
Hallelujah. 

395
00:21:53,500 --> 00:21:57,500
When we get to heaven, what a 
day of rejoicing that will be 

396
00:21:57,500 --> 00:21:59,600
no, praise God. 
We should have rejoicing now. 

397
00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:03,900
He, man. 
But Jesus answered again and 

398
00:22:03,900 --> 00:22:06,800
said to them, he's going to 
explain it to him children. 

399
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,700
How hard is it for those who 
trust in riches to enter the 

400
00:22:10,700 --> 00:22:13,300
kingdom of God? 
It's easier for a camel to go 

401
00:22:13,300 --> 00:22:16,000
through the eye of a needle than
for a rich man to enter the 

402
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,500
kingdom of God. 
And they were greatly astonished

403
00:22:18,500 --> 00:22:20,500
saying among themselves and who 
can be saved. 

404
00:22:20,500 --> 00:22:24,500
But Jesus looked at them and 
said with men, it is impossible 

405
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:28,100
but not with God, for With God, 
all things are possible. 

406
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,000
Now, the Lord brings us to the 
place and he's saying I will 

407
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,300
never ask you to do. something 
that I would not give you the 

408
00:22:33,300 --> 00:22:38,000
ability to do If you come into 
the kingdom of God, is not all 

409
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:39,900
that. 
You can do is what I can do for 

410
00:22:39,900 --> 00:22:41,600
you. 
And when I ask you to do 

411
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,300
something, I'm going to do it 
with you and for you and through

412
00:22:44,300 --> 00:22:46,000
you. 
And you'll never have to deal 

413
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,900
with anything that ask you to do
in your own strength or young 

414
00:22:48,900 --> 00:22:51,400
power. 
Your own might come on. 

415
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,400
How many of you know, that you 
can't repent without that. 

416
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,400
Repent of heart that the Lord 
gives you whenever you hear his 

417
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:01,500
word and reveals himself to your
faith is not of you. 

418
00:23:01,500 --> 00:23:03,800
Your faith comes to you through 
the word of God through your 

419
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,000
relationship and fellowship that
you have with the Lord Jesus 

420
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,400
Christ. 
So God Romans 12:3 gives us 

421
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:14,000
Faith to live by It had amazing,
you saved by grace through faith

422
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,400
is the gift of God, is Not of 
Works. 

423
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,500
Lest anyone should boast 
everybody says, all The Graces 

424
00:23:18,500 --> 00:23:19,300
gift. 
Will you? 

425
00:23:19,300 --> 00:23:21,800
Faith is against everything you 
get in this life? 

426
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,800
It comes to your king. 
Hallelujah. 

427
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,600
And the Lord is saying if you 
sit down and try to figure this 

428
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,500
out in your head and try to do 
it in your own strength, you're 

429
00:23:29,500 --> 00:23:32,600
going to struggle, you're not 
going to make it but With God, 

430
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,700
all things are possible. 
Amen. 

431
00:23:36,100 --> 00:23:38,000
And one is talking to this young
man. 

432
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,000
Is this? 
He said, when he says, you go 

433
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,100
sell everything you have. 
And give to the poor and you do 

434
00:23:42,100 --> 00:23:44,200
this. 
He is basically saying to the 

435
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:48,400
young man, you need to get rid 
of anything and everything that 

436
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,100
would hinder you from submitting
your entire life. 

437
00:23:51,100 --> 00:23:54,700
To me, do not let anything else 
have rule or any. 

438
00:23:54,900 --> 00:23:58,700
Kind of hold in your life if it 
does you're not completely 

439
00:23:58,700 --> 00:24:02,300
submitted to my room and so 
therefore if you really want to 

440
00:24:02,308 --> 00:24:05,900
experience the blessings of God,
you cannot let something else be

441
00:24:05,900 --> 00:24:11,800
Lord in your life. 
Amen. 

442
00:24:12,900 --> 00:24:16,100
So he's saying cleanse yourself,
son from anything that would 

443
00:24:16,100 --> 00:24:20,100
dilute your commitment to me did
get rid of anything that is 

444
00:24:20,100 --> 00:24:23,400
before me. 
Amen. 

445
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,700
Come on now. 
And so the Lord is speaking to 

446
00:24:27,700 --> 00:24:29,200
us. 
What true repentance is 

447
00:24:29,300 --> 00:24:32,500
repentance is, I don't come to 
God with conditions. 

448
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:38,600
And also, we now find the motive
of the heart of this young man. 

449
00:24:38,700 --> 00:24:42,100
He wasn't coming to inherit the 
Kingdom or go move into the 

450
00:24:42,100 --> 00:24:44,000
camera. 
Move into the life of God. 

451
00:24:44,100 --> 00:24:48,000
He was coming to get another 
notch in his in his sword so 

452
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,300
that he could show everybody 
what kind of a good person. 

453
00:24:50,300 --> 00:24:56,300
He was, it was about him. 
The folks, I want to tell you 

454
00:24:56,300 --> 00:24:59,000
something. 
The kingdom of God is not about 

455
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:00,900
me. 
It's about Jesus. 

456
00:25:00,900 --> 00:25:03,300
Amen. 
And Pastor brought out last 

457
00:25:03,300 --> 00:25:05,600
night, I'm an ambassador of the 
Lord. 

458
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,700
Paul said we are ambassadors. 
We had the privilege of taking 

459
00:25:08,700 --> 00:25:12,500
this word of reconciliation to 
the world and telling the people

460
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,600
but I don't go and tell them I 
can get them saved. 

461
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:17,600
I don't go and tell them what 
I'm doing. 

462
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,600
I don't go and tell them what 
I'm living. 

463
00:25:19,700 --> 00:25:22,700
I go and tell them what God 
wants or them to have on what 

464
00:25:22,700 --> 00:25:25,000
the kingdom. 
All about, I'm representing 

465
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,300
Jesus. 
I don't speak on my behalf even 

466
00:25:27,300 --> 00:25:29,500
when I pray for the sick and 
minister to them. 

467
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,400
Jesus said, in my name, they 
will lay hands on the sick and 

468
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,700
they shall recover. 
You know, that means, that means

469
00:25:34,700 --> 00:25:38,100
in my stead, in my place, in my 
behalf, doing it. 

470
00:25:38,100 --> 00:25:41,400
As if I was there myself, you 
lay your hands on him and my 

471
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,600
name. 
And I'll step in and heal them 

472
00:25:43,700 --> 00:25:52,000
because you're representing me. 
And the Lord is trying to get 

473
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,600
across this young man. 
Even the disciples are having a 

474
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:58,400
little difficulty with it 
because they're attaching things

475
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,300
around here. 
And what they do with the 

476
00:26:00,300 --> 00:26:02,400
kingdom of God, and what the 
Lord is, trying to get them to 

477
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,000
the places is, and he's saying 
those are just blessings of the 

478
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,800
Kingdom. 
Those are just things I give you

479
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:12,100
to enjoy life work with you, but
the true things that I have for 

480
00:26:12,108 --> 00:26:13,900
you. 
The kingdom of God, is the 

481
00:26:13,900 --> 00:26:20,900
relationship of walking with me,
And knowing me and being a part 

482
00:26:20,900 --> 00:26:24,100
of me being a part of what I 
have and joining in with me to 

483
00:26:24,100 --> 00:26:27,000
bring the kingdom to others and 
having the joy of seeing lives 

484
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:32,200
changed and harsh touch and said
he shaking haleluya and so he's 

485
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:33,900
ministering to the disciples 
here. 

486
00:26:34,900 --> 00:26:37,300
And so then he goes on, let's go
down here and read again. 

487
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,100
Verse 28, then Peter began to 
say to him. 

488
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:48,200
We have left all and followed 
you We've left all followed you.

489
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:53,400
Now, a lot of times we take them
we said well I've got to walk 

490
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,600
away from everything I've got, 
I've got to give up my business 

491
00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:00,700
and go bit missionary someplace.
Not unless the Lord told you to 

492
00:27:04,300 --> 00:27:07,500
Amen. 
Let's read it. 

493
00:27:07,500 --> 00:27:11,100
Let me bring it out to you. 
So, Jesus answered and said, 

494
00:27:11,100 --> 00:27:13,700
assuredly, I say to you. 
There is no one who has left 

495
00:27:13,700 --> 00:27:16,500
house or brothers or sisters or 
father or mother or wife or 

496
00:27:16,500 --> 00:27:19,500
children or lands for my sake. 
And the gospels you did for my 

497
00:27:19,500 --> 00:27:23,600
sake in by 4:30 me and your 
commitment to me and the gospels

498
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,200
who shall not receive a 
hundredfold. 

499
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,700
Now in this time houses and 
brothers and sisters and mothers

500
00:27:29,700 --> 00:27:33,500
and children with lands and 
lands with persecutions and in 

501
00:27:33,500 --> 00:27:40,000
the age to come eternal life. 
Let's just sit like this, the 

502
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,800
Lord Peter comes up to him and 
he says, Lord. 

503
00:27:44,500 --> 00:27:49,300
We have put everything we've got
under your Authority. 

504
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,900
Because they didn't leave their 
house. 

505
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:57,800
Still had a house. 
Didn't leave their family, they 

506
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:01,000
still had families. 
In fact, even after 

507
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,600
Resurrection, Peter went 
fishing. 

508
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:09,400
And and and that meant that I 
left my wife left, my kids left 

509
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:12,400
my home and Stranded them just 
to go out and do things of God, 

510
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,800
I would be wrong because the 
Bible teaches me that I'm to 

511
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:20,700
love my wife and nurture. 
Her Bible teaches me time to be 

512
00:28:20,700 --> 00:28:24,400
a good parent to my children. 
Bible teaches me that I can't 

513
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,500
even preach in the house of God,
if I can't do that. 

514
00:28:26,508 --> 00:28:27,800
Know how to take care of my own 
home? 

515
00:28:29,700 --> 00:28:31,600
The Bible teaches me. 
If I don't take care of all 

516
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,400
these things, I'm worse than an 
unbeliever. 

517
00:28:34,500 --> 00:28:37,300
So there's got to be something 
that's, that's missing here when

518
00:28:37,300 --> 00:28:39,300
we say, I left house, and 
brother, and father, mother and 

519
00:28:39,300 --> 00:28:42,500
sisters brothers, and for your 
sake, and you'll receive 100 

520
00:28:42,500 --> 00:28:45,600
folder in this lifetime. 
Let's just sit like this. 

521
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:47,700
Let's go back to the Rich Young 
Ruler. 

522
00:28:47,700 --> 00:28:49,500
What do you say? 
Take, and give everything you 

523
00:28:49,500 --> 00:28:51,100
got. 
And come follow me. 

524
00:28:52,300 --> 00:28:56,500
Lord, I make the commitment. 
That I will love you. 

525
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:03,000
First more than I love my wife. 
I will love you first more than 

526
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,800
I love my children. 
I love you first and more than I

527
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,800
love anything. 
I've got or anything that I'm 

528
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:12,700
doing because see, if I love you
more than I love my wife, then I

529
00:29:12,700 --> 00:29:14,900
can love my wife. 
The way I'm supposed to. 

530
00:29:17,900 --> 00:29:20,200
Because then I'm going to 
cherish her and love her with 

531
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:24,900
your love. 
And if I love my children after 

532
00:29:24,900 --> 00:29:28,700
I love you, then I'm going to be
to them what you want me to be 

533
00:29:28,700 --> 00:29:31,800
and raise them up the way, they 
should be raised up and that's 

534
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,000
what the Lord is saying. 
He say anything, you will 

535
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,300
surrender to me and put me Lord 
over. 

536
00:29:36,300 --> 00:29:39,000
I'll make it a hundred times 
better than you could have if 

537
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:43,500
you'd have done it yourself. 
I'm living proof folks. 

538
00:29:43,500 --> 00:29:48,700
I want to tell you something. 
Next few months bonding that 

539
00:29:48,700 --> 00:29:52,000
will celebrate 48 years, that 
we've been together. 

540
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:58,700
Hallelujah. 
And we watch God, take us from 

541
00:29:58,700 --> 00:30:00,900
we didn't have anything when we 
came to the Lord. 

542
00:30:01,100 --> 00:30:04,500
I mean we you looked up the word
poverty and have picture men 

543
00:30:04,500 --> 00:30:10,800
Bonnell beside Okay. 
We had very little of anything 

544
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:14,400
and we just but but we had a 
commitment to the Lord Jesus 

545
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,600
Christ that we were going to get
it. 

546
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:21,500
We didn't have a Bible with to 
go out and you heard start I use

547
00:30:21,500 --> 00:30:25,000
S&H Green Stamps to get our 
first bible yet while y'all 

548
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,300
don't know what it is. 
A Redemption story. 

549
00:30:28,300 --> 00:30:30,300
We found a Bible in a Redemption
story. 

550
00:30:30,300 --> 00:30:32,700
I had a book of essays Green 
Stamps and took it and got us a 

551
00:30:32,708 --> 00:30:34,700
Bible That's first Bible. 
Whatever. 

552
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:38,300
Wasn't raised to know anything 
in China. 

553
00:30:38,300 --> 00:30:40,400
I was raised to be a good person
leaving God. 

554
00:30:42,100 --> 00:30:45,700
Amen. 
But we made a commitment to the 

555
00:30:45,700 --> 00:30:48,400
lordship of Jesus and when we 
first got married, we didn't do 

556
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,600
much of anything. 
But I looked at her and I said, 

557
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,400
we need to make this commitment 
to each other. 

558
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:59,300
I said, You need to love me 
second and I need a love you. 

559
00:30:59,300 --> 00:31:02,200
S. 
You need love Jesus first. 

560
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,900
And I needed love Jesus first 
because if Jesus is first in my 

561
00:31:05,900 --> 00:31:08,600
life than at put you in the 
position, you need to be in my 

562
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:13,000
life and if and if I love and 
commit to Jesus first, then I 

563
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:16,000
would have to break my walk with
him before I could ever break my

564
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:20,500
commitment to you and I'm not 
going to break my commitment to 

565
00:31:20,500 --> 00:31:22,800
the Lord. 
Therefore you can trust me. 

566
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:27,600
I'm never going to do you wrong.
Tell me to do my wife wrong I 

567
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,800
have to do my Lord wrong first 
and I'm not going to go against 

568
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:31,900
my king. 
Amen. 

569
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,600
And so we made that commitment 
and and in making that, praise 

570
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:38,600
God. 
God has blessed us and prospered

571
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:40,800
us. 
And he's given us a hundred 

572
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:44,300
times more than we could have 
ever experienced in our life. 

573
00:31:44,300 --> 00:31:46,500
If we did try to do it our own 
way. 

574
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:52,600
The kingdom of God works. 
Because we have a benevolent 

575
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,200
King who loves us and is touched
by our infirmities. 

576
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,500
And knows how to get us through 
those situations. 

577
00:31:57,500 --> 00:32:01,500
Praise God, and he's and, and 
what he's asking for us in this 

578
00:32:01,500 --> 00:32:05,500
hour, is to renew your 
commitment and consecration to 

579
00:32:05,500 --> 00:32:09,700
my lordship and my rule in your 
life because when you consecrate

580
00:32:09,700 --> 00:32:13,500
everything, you've got into my 
hands, I'll make it better than 

581
00:32:13,500 --> 00:32:15,500
you could. 
And this is the thing to you 

582
00:32:15,500 --> 00:32:19,200
know, God blesses us with money 
and he started teaching me this 

583
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,900
one. 
I went to Rhema We went to 

584
00:32:21,908 --> 00:32:23,400
Raymond, have anybody helping 
us. 

585
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:26,000
And we went out there with no 
money, just enough to get the 

586
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:30,000
first month paid for and get a 
rented, a, an apartment. 

587
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,000
And so, you know, I was really 
needing some cash. 

588
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:35,900
I walked into the front lobby 
there of the old Rooker, 

589
00:32:35,900 --> 00:32:38,500
Auditorium only had two 
buildings when I went there. 

590
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:40,800
Hallelujah. 
But anyway, I walked in the 

591
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,800
front lobby and somebody walked 
up and said praise the Lord 

592
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:46,300
Brother Darryl I shook my hand 
and there's a twenty dollar 

593
00:32:46,300 --> 00:32:50,000
bill, the God is a good day. 
Hallelujah. 

594
00:32:51,100 --> 00:32:53,200
I stuck that twenty dollars in 
my pocket. 

595
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,700
I got about 15 Steps. 
Heading towards the auditorium. 

596
00:32:57,700 --> 00:33:00,400
Somebody came as hey Darrell you
got any money. 

597
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:06,200
I went why and it was young lady
said and I think her name was 

598
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:07,100
Kate. 
Katie. 

599
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,700
She yeah. 
She's about 20 dollars short of 

600
00:33:09,700 --> 00:33:12,500
having her tuition. 
We've raised up about except 20 

601
00:33:12,700 --> 00:33:15,700
you have any money and I still 
got my 20 in my hand in my 

602
00:33:15,700 --> 00:33:22,900
pocket. 
I'm thinking I was two steps 

603
00:33:22,900 --> 00:33:24,400
away from getting into the 
sanctuary. 

604
00:33:24,500 --> 00:33:29,100
Two steps away from my $20 been 
in my pocket Holly but 

605
00:33:29,100 --> 00:33:33,700
immediately my heart. 
I had that auction you. 

606
00:33:33,700 --> 00:33:36,600
So in her you give that's why I 
gave it to you. 

607
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:40,300
Now I'm placed in the same 
position. 

608
00:33:40,300 --> 00:33:42,900
The Rich Young Ruler is in. 
Now, he may have had great 

609
00:33:42,900 --> 00:33:45,700
possessions but that $20 was a 
great possession at me at that 

610
00:33:45,700 --> 00:33:49,600
moment. 
And I've got a decision, do I 

611
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:53,800
give it and trust my Lord and my
king or do I keep it and trust 

612
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:57,700
in me? 
Well thank God. 

613
00:33:57,700 --> 00:34:00,700
I made a commitment to the 
lordship of Jesus and I just 

614
00:34:00,700 --> 00:34:04,200
pulled that 20 out and I said I 
got 20, they grabbed out of my 

615
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:05,600
hands at all. 
That's great. 

616
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:06,600
You'll be able to stay in 
school. 

617
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,900
She got to pay it today and they
ran in and gave her the money 

618
00:34:08,900 --> 00:34:11,400
and I looked in and she's up 
there dancing and praising 

619
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:16,000
crying. 
And I rejoiced I went in sit 

620
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,900
down after the service. 
Got up went out. 

621
00:34:19,900 --> 00:34:22,500
Hallelujah. 
Got my car and said Lord how it 

622
00:34:22,507 --> 00:34:25,300
was so great, but how am I going
to get gas to get home? 

623
00:34:25,300 --> 00:34:30,800
Hallelujah. 
And it wasn't too long after 

624
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:33,000
that, somebody came up and 
bought me a tank a guess. 

625
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,400
How they though, you and took 
care of me. 

626
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,300
And from that time on, I learned
something that the Rich Young 

627
00:34:38,300 --> 00:34:41,800
Ruler didn't learn the Lord, 
never was asking me to give up 

628
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:43,699
something. 
He was asking me to put myself 

629
00:34:43,699 --> 00:34:45,400
in a position. 
To get something. 

630
00:34:50,300 --> 00:34:53,400
He was wanting me to operate 
under his lordship and not under

631
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,600
the lordship of the enemy who 
was stealing, killing and 

632
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,600
destroying. 
And he wanted me to learn to 

633
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:04,300
trust that I have a king that is
trustworthy good and kind and 

634
00:35:04,300 --> 00:35:06,300
cares for me and he wants to get
me through. 

635
00:35:06,300 --> 00:35:10,500
Amen and since then, thank God, 
we've been able to give a whole 

636
00:35:10,500 --> 00:35:14,800
lot more Hallelujah because 
every time the Lord asks we've 

637
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:16,800
done it. 
God's asked us to do certain 

638
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:17,900
things. 
We've done it. 

639
00:35:17,900 --> 00:35:19,900
Praise God. 
Have we done a perfectly? 

640
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,500
I know, but we've committed 
ourselves to follow the king. 

641
00:35:23,500 --> 00:35:25,700
Amen. 
Now, look, something here in. 

642
00:35:25,700 --> 00:35:28,300
Verse 30, we really want to 
touch on this for the next few 

643
00:35:28,300 --> 00:35:33,000
moments is so help you Nosy, 
says who shall receive a 

644
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,100
hundredfold. 
Now in this time, everybody say,

645
00:35:36,100 --> 00:35:39,900
in this time, houses and 
brothers, sisters and mothers, 

646
00:35:39,900 --> 00:35:45,400
and children, and lands with 
persecutions, and in the age to 

647
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:48,500
come eternal life. 
Notice that the Lord talks about

648
00:35:48,500 --> 00:35:54,300
two different ages, This time. 
And the age to come. 

649
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:57,500
You understand, you gotta 
understand some folks. 

650
00:35:57,500 --> 00:36:00,800
The kingdom of God is broken up 
into two ages. 

651
00:36:02,500 --> 00:36:05,400
An age is a designated period of
time. 

652
00:36:06,300 --> 00:36:10,800
And right now, you and I are 
living in the age of blessing 

653
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,700
with persecution. 
You understand. 

654
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:19,100
Now there is a cut and all of 
this has been in response to 

655
00:36:19,100 --> 00:36:21,800
answer the question. 
What must I do to inherit 

656
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:25,300
eternal life or what must I do 
to get over into the fullness of

657
00:36:25,300 --> 00:36:26,900
the life of God. 
Amen. 

658
00:36:27,700 --> 00:36:30,800
And Jesus says, you've got to 
commit your whole life to me and

659
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:34,000
he got to do this and he says 
and here's what I will do even 

660
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,600
in this present age, I will 
bring to you a hundred times 

661
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:40,400
better than what you can have. 
But the difference is, in this 

662
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,400
present age, you're going to get
the blessing with persecution. 

663
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:50,700
And somebody says, well, why are
we getting blessed with 

664
00:36:50,700 --> 00:36:52,100
persecution? 
What do you mean the two 

665
00:36:52,100 --> 00:36:55,800
different ages you have the age 
to come, which is the millennial

666
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:59,400
age and then you have the age 
that's right now, let me show 

667
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:04,500
you this age this right now. 
Real quick lations 1:4 glaciers 

668
00:37:04,500 --> 00:37:07,800
chapter one. 
Look what the Apostle says over 

669
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,100
here. 
See you got to understand the 

670
00:37:10,100 --> 00:37:14,200
age that you're living in, and 
then you'll understand how to 

671
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:17,400
ruin to have dominion as a king 
of under the king. 

672
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,200
Praise God. 
Glaciers won't. 

673
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:20,000
Listen. 
Let's begin. 

674
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,500
Actually in verse 3 and we'll 
read the verse 5. 

675
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,700
He says grace to you and peace 
from God, the father, and our 

676
00:37:25,700 --> 00:37:29,500
Lord Jesus Christ. 
Now listen, who gave himself for

677
00:37:29,500 --> 00:37:34,500
our sins, that he might Deliver 
Us from this present, evil age, 

678
00:37:34,500 --> 00:37:36,000
according to the will of our 
God. 

679
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:38,600
God and Father to him be glory 
forever and ever. 

680
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:42,900
Amen. 
Notice that Paul calls this 

681
00:37:42,900 --> 00:37:47,500
present age and evil age? 
Well, women brother died. 

682
00:37:47,500 --> 00:37:49,500
I thought we were living in the 
kingdom of God. 

683
00:37:49,500 --> 00:37:51,100
And Jesus came and brought 
Redemption. 

684
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,600
Yes, he did. 
I thought we were supposed to 

685
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:54,900
rule and Reign. 
We are. 

686
00:37:54,900 --> 00:37:57,900
But have you never ruled the 
even and when you're under 

687
00:37:57,900 --> 00:38:00,800
attack, and whenever things are 
going south Paul writes to the 

688
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,700
Romans and he says, all this 
stuff is going on, yet, in all 

689
00:38:03,700 --> 00:38:05,800
these things, we are more than 
conquerors through him. 

690
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:07,900
That loved us. 
What's that mean? 

691
00:38:07,900 --> 00:38:09,200
You? 
And I need to wake up and 

692
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:12,100
realize we are not living in the
age to come yet. 

693
00:38:12,100 --> 00:38:15,500
We're not living in the 
millennial age, this age began 

694
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:21,100
An with the resurrection of the 
Lord Jesus Christ because in 

695
00:38:21,100 --> 00:38:25,000
Ephesians chapter 2, he says 
this that when we were even dead

696
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,300
in sins and trespasses, God 
raised us up together with 

697
00:38:28,300 --> 00:38:32,100
Christ and seated Us in Heavenly
places and brought Redemption to

698
00:38:32,100 --> 00:38:35,700
us and that in the ages to come.
We you know we he was chose His 

699
00:38:35,700 --> 00:38:37,900
blessings and and work in our 
lives. 

700
00:38:37,900 --> 00:38:41,400
Praise God. 
And so thank God. 

701
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:43,300
Yes. 
We have been brought into the 

702
00:38:43,300 --> 00:38:45,800
kingdom age. 
But this age, you Got to 

703
00:38:45,808 --> 00:38:49,700
understand Galatians 3:13 and 14
says Christ hath redeemed us 

704
00:38:49,700 --> 00:38:53,100
from the curse of the law and 
that right becoming a curse for 

705
00:38:53,100 --> 00:38:54,900
us for it is written. 
Cursed, is everyone who hangs on

706
00:38:54,900 --> 00:38:58,100
a tree, why that The Blessing of
Abraham might come upon the 

707
00:38:58,100 --> 00:39:00,500
Gentiles that we might receive 
the promise of the spirit 

708
00:39:00,500 --> 00:39:04,300
through faith? 
And then he brings it to the 

709
00:39:04,300 --> 00:39:08,300
reality of my living at vitally 
in verse 29, it says, and if you

710
00:39:08,300 --> 00:39:10,200
be Christ's then are ye 
Abraham's seed and heirs, 

711
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:14,700
according to the promise. 
So even right now, we are 

712
00:39:14,700 --> 00:39:18,800
redeemed from the curse of the 
law but you need to understand 

713
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,000
something though. 
We are redeemed from the curse 

714
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:24,700
of the law. 
Jesus did not receive Jesus, did

715
00:39:24,700 --> 00:39:27,300
not remove the curse from this 
age. 

716
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,300
The curse of the Lost poverty 
sickness disease. 

717
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:37,700
Are you listening to me? 
And all that stuff is still 

718
00:39:37,700 --> 00:39:45,300
here. 
Hebrews 2:14-15 says that Jesus 

719
00:39:45,300 --> 00:39:48,600
Christ took upon himself, the 
form of Flesh and Blood and came

720
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:50,600
and and through death destroyed 
him. 

721
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,000
That had the power of death that
is the devil. 

722
00:39:53,100 --> 00:39:55,400
So that those who were through 
fear of death were all their 

723
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:58,200
lifetime subject, to bondage, 
could be delivered and set free.

724
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,600
Now, what's he mean? 
Destroyed him that had the power

725
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:03,800
of death. 
It means to render powerless or 

726
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:08,100
take the authority away from. 
Jesus didn't do away with the 

727
00:40:08,100 --> 00:40:10,500
devil during this age. 
He still here. 

728
00:40:12,300 --> 00:40:16,200
Second Corinthians 4:4 says he 
still the God of this world and 

729
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:20,500
he's blinding the minds of 
people that don't believe John 

730
00:40:20,500 --> 00:40:22,800
10. 
Jesus said in verse 10, he is 

731
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,100
still the thief that's still in 
killing and destroying. 

732
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,900
Amen. 
See a lot of times we get say, 

733
00:40:29,900 --> 00:40:32,300
we give her life to the Lord and
we think everything's going to 

734
00:40:32,300 --> 00:40:33,600
be wonderful. 
And we're never going to have 

735
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:35,300
another test or trouble or 
problem. 

736
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:39,500
But in John 16, Jesus said, in 
verse 33 in this world, in this 

737
00:40:39,500 --> 00:40:42,700
time you're going to have test 
trials, tribulations, struggles 

738
00:40:42,700 --> 00:40:45,700
and troubles but be of good 
cheer. 

739
00:40:45,700 --> 00:40:49,400
I have overcome the world. 
I have deprived it of its right 

740
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:51,900
to overcome you and defeat you. 
Hallelujah. 

741
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,800
See, when we talk about ruling 
and reigning, you have to know 

742
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,200
the age, you're living in. 
You need to understand. 

743
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:01,700
They're still opposition here. 
Jesus didn't remove all this 

744
00:41:01,700 --> 00:41:04,000
wickedness. 
He delivered us from it. 

745
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:10,600
Hallelujah. 
And so, you know, if you don't 

746
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:14,200
understand this age and what 
we're living in then when some 

747
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,900
bad thing happens in your life, 
you think you're missing it. 

748
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:20,200
You think you're not worthy? 
You think you don't have enough 

749
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:21,400
Faith. 
You think that you? 

750
00:41:21,500 --> 00:41:23,100
What were you getting those 
thoughts? 

751
00:41:23,100 --> 00:41:25,200
The same stinkin Thinkin 
thought. 

752
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:31,500
Give her. 
The devil is still here and he 

753
00:41:31,500 --> 00:41:35,900
can't, he can't just come in and
take you down. 

754
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,700
He has to talk you into 
submitting and agreeing with him

755
00:41:43,300 --> 00:41:46,400
first B25. 
Peter than say, he is a lion 

756
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:51,000
that roams about, he says he Is 
like a roaring lion who roams 

757
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,500
about? 
Many. 

758
00:41:53,500 --> 00:42:00,000
What his biggest his Roar is 
much more worse than his bite. 

759
00:42:04,700 --> 00:42:09,000
That's what Jesus said. 
Take no thought saying, take no 

760
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,900
worries. 
Thank saying don't be anxious. 

761
00:42:11,900 --> 00:42:14,200
Why those are the things of this
age? 

762
00:42:17,700 --> 00:42:22,300
And whenever you give and God 
starts blessing, you get ready 

763
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,200
persecutions coming. 
Why? 

764
00:42:25,300 --> 00:42:27,800
Because the devil wants you to 
feel like something's wrong 

765
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:33,500
because you're getting blessed. 
Are you hearing me? 

766
00:42:34,700 --> 00:42:38,700
We need to know this age. 
We need to understand this 

767
00:42:38,700 --> 00:42:41,800
segment of time that we're 
living in that we are still 

768
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:44,700
living in a lost world. 
We're still living in a world. 

769
00:42:44,700 --> 00:42:46,400
Where the kingdom of darkness is
here. 

770
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,000
We're still living in a world 
where there's a devil and their 

771
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,000
demon forces that's why in 
Ephesians 6. 

772
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,500
He says, to be strong in the 
Lord and the power of His might 

773
00:42:53,500 --> 00:42:56,700
put on the whole armor of God, 
so that you can resist and stand

774
00:42:56,700 --> 00:43:00,100
steadfast Against the Wild 
schemes and plans of the devil. 

775
00:43:00,100 --> 00:43:03,400
Amen. 
Then he As listen, don't get 

776
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:06,200
caught up in, fighting flesh, 
and blood and war with people 

777
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:08,700
and things in there that your 
problem for the weapons of our 

778
00:43:08,700 --> 00:43:11,000
Warfare are not Mighty. 
There are not carnal but they're

779
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,300
Mighty through God, to the 
pulling down of the strongholds 

780
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,200
and he says, if we don't wrestle
against flesh and blood, but we 

781
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:18,800
stand strong against 
principalities and powers and 

782
00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:20,300
rulers of darkness and wicked 
spirits. 

783
00:43:20,500 --> 00:43:23,000
And every High thing that's 
lifted up in heaven, as we bring

784
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:24,700
them down. 
Hallelujah? 

785
00:43:25,100 --> 00:43:27,300
Why? 
Because we are here to represent

786
00:43:27,300 --> 00:43:29,800
the king of kings and Lord of 
lords and he gave us a 

787
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:33,300
commission to take his kingdom 
and going to All the world and 

788
00:43:33,300 --> 00:43:36,500
change the nation's change 
people and deliver them from 

789
00:43:36,500 --> 00:43:38,600
this darkness. 
That the devil is trying to keep

790
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:44,300
them in and then he says in 
Hebrews, he says forsake, not 

791
00:43:44,300 --> 00:43:46,100
the assembling of yourselves. 
Why? 

792
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,100
So you can be reminded every day
that we're still living in a 

793
00:43:49,100 --> 00:43:52,200
loss. 
Dirty, stinking darkened world. 

794
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,400
But we are delivered from all 
that dirty darkness and stinking

795
00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:57,200
world. 
And we are to bring the Light of

796
00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:59,800
Christ in the light of the 
kingdom of God, to all the 

797
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:04,200
people and set her free. 
And so we come and exhort each 

798
00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:06,900
other and learn who we are in 
Christ and learn of the kingdom 

799
00:44:06,900 --> 00:44:10,200
of God and learn of our 
Authority and learn of the time 

800
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,700
that we're living in. 
So that we walk out here, we are

801
00:44:12,700 --> 00:44:15,800
not blind sided by some silly 
thing that the devil is trying 

802
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:22,800
to defeat as well. 
Well, I got saved in this been 

803
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:24,000
worse. 
Since I got safe. 

804
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:33,000
Welcome to my world. 
The Lord didn't promise that 

805
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:37,600
Rich Young Ruler Lord, he said 
follow me and to follow him. 

806
00:44:37,700 --> 00:44:39,600
What did the disciples do? 
They got? 

807
00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:42,800
They got persecuted. 
They got run out of towns. 

808
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,100
I mean they had the same attacks
against them that Jesus had 

809
00:44:46,100 --> 00:44:51,300
against himself. 
The Lord wasn't offering the 

810
00:44:51,300 --> 00:44:53,900
Rich. 
Young Ruler, a nice easy, Peezy 

811
00:44:53,900 --> 00:45:00,400
Weezy life. 
He was offering him a life 

812
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:03,400
filled with authority and power 
that you could take losing 

813
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:06,500
situations and turn them into 
victories that you could take 

814
00:45:06,500 --> 00:45:09,500
bad situations and turn them for
good that you could walk in the 

815
00:45:09,500 --> 00:45:11,700
power of God, right? 
In the midst of all the attacks 

816
00:45:11,700 --> 00:45:14,500
of the enemy and walk right out 
of that fire, without being 

817
00:45:14,500 --> 00:45:16,800
singed. 
Touched A Hallelujah. 

818
00:45:18,100 --> 00:45:20,700
But you see, you have to 
understand this is the season 

819
00:45:20,700 --> 00:45:22,800
that we're living in. 
This is the time that we're 

820
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:27,200
living in. 
But then here in over there, in 

821
00:45:27,500 --> 00:45:32,000
Luke's are marked 10:30 when the
Lord continued on. 

822
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:35,700
He said, you know, you're going 
to receive a hundredfold. 

823
00:45:36,500 --> 00:45:38,900
In other words, anything you put
in my hands right now, even 

824
00:45:38,900 --> 00:45:41,600
though you've got an enemy 
that's resisting, you I'll make 

825
00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:43,900
it a hundred times better than 
you could have done without me. 

826
00:45:45,100 --> 00:45:47,200
I'll make your life a hundred 
times better. 

827
00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:51,900
How bless your family? 
I bless your home. 

828
00:45:51,900 --> 00:45:53,300
I'll bless the work of your 
hands. 

829
00:45:53,600 --> 00:46:02,000
You you sow and reap when 
everybody else is not. and when 

830
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:08,900
they beat you and put you in 
jail, At midnight. when you 

831
00:46:08,908 --> 00:46:13,000
finally wake up and come to 
yourself, you look around and 

832
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:15,300
say Jesus is still Lord less 
praising. 

833
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:20,400
And right there, like Paul and 
Silas right there in that jab 

834
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:22,600
midnight. 
You just start Prince, you'll 

835
00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:26,400
pray. 
And you'll praise why. 

836
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:29,500
Because you know, the season, 
the time, the age of living in, 

837
00:46:29,500 --> 00:46:32,800
you know, what your purposes, 
you know, who you Lord Is, You 

838
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,200
Know, Who You Came? 
Yeah, I've told this before, 

839
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:37,500
but, you know, Paul and Silas, 
we're not praying to get out of 

840
00:46:37,508 --> 00:46:41,700
jail. 
No brother. 

841
00:46:41,700 --> 00:46:44,200
Don't, how can you say that? 
Well, I say that, because the 

842
00:46:44,208 --> 00:46:49,100
word says that No, no, yes, yes,
read it. 

843
00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:53,500
And at midnight, Paul and Silas 
prayed and sang, Praises unto 

844
00:46:53,500 --> 00:46:55,200
God. 
And the prisoners heard them. 

845
00:46:56,100 --> 00:46:59,800
And while they were singing and 
praising, God the Earth Shook, 

846
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:03,900
and the jail doors opened, the 
chains fell off and the guard 

847
00:47:03,900 --> 00:47:06,700
came in. 
It was going to fall on his 

848
00:47:06,700 --> 00:47:09,400
sword because he was entrusted 
with the keeping them. 

849
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:11,200
And Paul says, do yourself, no 
harm. 

850
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:15,500
We're still here now. 
They've been praying to get out,

851
00:47:15,500 --> 00:47:16,700
brother. 
I'm going to tell you what soon 

852
00:47:16,700 --> 00:47:19,100
is that jailed opened up and 
those change fellow? 

853
00:47:19,700 --> 00:47:23,000
Boom. 
You would have seen nothing, but

854
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:28,700
a trail of dust with me. 
Praise God, I'm heading to the 

855
00:47:28,700 --> 00:47:31,300
nearest boat at the nearest dock
to get off of this island. 

856
00:47:31,300 --> 00:47:36,200
Hallelujah, amen. 
But they're still sitting there.

857
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:40,100
now, while they still sitting 
there because they understand 

858
00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:43,600
the season Asia lived in, but 
they also understand that Jesus 

859
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:47,800
said follow me, Go sell all you 
have and follow me. 

860
00:47:49,100 --> 00:47:51,800
So when they came into the 
kingdom, they ceased living 

861
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:55,400
their Kingdom, they ceased being
Kings over their lives and they 

862
00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:57,400
met Jesus king and Lord of their
lives. 

863
00:47:57,900 --> 00:48:01,400
They gave him full Rule and 
they're trusting him that even 

864
00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:03,600
though the enemies came in like 
a flood Lord, I believe that 

865
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:05,700
you're turning this thing around
and what the devil meant for 

866
00:48:05,700 --> 00:48:07,100
bad. 
You're going to turn for my good

867
00:48:07,300 --> 00:48:09,100
and and Paul never forgot his 
purpose. 

868
00:48:09,100 --> 00:48:11,700
His purpose was to go. 
Do what Jesus said, I'm going to

869
00:48:11,700 --> 00:48:13,400
send you, and you're going to 
establish the kingdom. 

870
00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:15,100
All over this place. 
You're going to preach to the 

871
00:48:15,100 --> 00:48:16,100
Gentiles. 
You're going to reach the 

872
00:48:16,100 --> 00:48:18,600
nation's you're going. 
And so he is he is established a

873
00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:23,300
church. it's right there, ladies
house already and if he'd ran 

874
00:48:23,300 --> 00:48:27,000
out of there, what kind of 
example that have been He 

875
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:29,500
understood there's a greater 
purpose here than me having some

876
00:48:29,500 --> 00:48:33,500
Comforts right now. 
The purpose is I was sent here 

877
00:48:33,500 --> 00:48:36,400
to stablish the kingdom of God. 
I'm here representing my king 

878
00:48:36,500 --> 00:48:38,700
and if I run out that's the 
image they're going to have of 

879
00:48:38,700 --> 00:48:40,900
him. 
So I'm going to turn this thing 

880
00:48:40,900 --> 00:48:43,100
around so he just put it in 
God's hands and started praising

881
00:48:43,100 --> 00:48:45,600
the Lord for his victory. 
Lord, shut that place, delivered

882
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:48,500
him out of it and then he goes 
to the jailers house, gets him 

883
00:48:48,500 --> 00:48:50,900
and his family. 
Safe, he cleans him up the next 

884
00:48:50,900 --> 00:48:53,800
day he makes the authorities. 
Come and apologize to him before

885
00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:59,100
he leaves. 
I'm going to show you that the 

886
00:48:59,100 --> 00:49:01,400
kingdom of God is greater than 
the kingdom of darkness. 

887
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:04,200
When you College eyes to me, 
then I'll consider leaving the 

888
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:08,000
town. 
He went from the bottom to the 

889
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:10,400
top from the tail to the Head. 
Amen. 

890
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:14,900
Why? 
Because anything you give to me,

891
00:49:14,900 --> 00:49:17,900
I'll give it back to you a 
hundredfold in this life with 

892
00:49:17,900 --> 00:49:21,900
some persecutions. 
But then the age to come, you 

893
00:49:21,900 --> 00:49:23,600
don't have a lot of time to 
touch on the HTM. 

894
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:25,800
What's the age to come? 
It begins in the millennial 

895
00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:29,100
reign. 
It begins the millennial Reign. 

896
00:49:29,100 --> 00:49:32,100
When we inherit the fullness of 
life, that that when we get 

897
00:49:32,100 --> 00:49:33,600
blessed, we don't get 
persecuted. 

898
00:49:34,500 --> 00:49:38,000
Because the persecutors locked 
up Romans to Revelation 20 says 

899
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:42,900
in the bottomless pit, And so we
enter into the fullness of time 

900
00:49:43,300 --> 00:49:44,600
age of the Millennium. 
Amen. 

901
00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:48,300
The age to come and thank God. 
But you know it's a great about 

902
00:49:48,300 --> 00:49:50,600
the age to come. 
Let me show you something. 

903
00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:52,400
Look in Ephesians chapter one 
real quick. 

904
00:49:53,300 --> 00:49:58,300
Hallelujah. 
And I don't want to take too 

905
00:49:58,300 --> 00:50:00,300
much time, but how many of give 
me two more minutes. 

906
00:50:00,300 --> 00:50:05,300
Pray, praise God. 
Let me quickly share this with 

907
00:50:05,300 --> 00:50:07,400
you. 
It'll help you praise God in 

908
00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:11,900
Ephesians chapter 1. 
The Apostle Paul is writing to 

909
00:50:11,900 --> 00:50:13,600
the Church of Ephesus, gives 
them a prayer. 

910
00:50:14,300 --> 00:50:18,000
We're going to pick that prayer 
up down here in verse 17. 

911
00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:20,600
It says that the god of our Lord
Jesus Christ, the father of 

912
00:50:20,608 --> 00:50:23,300
Glory, may give unto you the 
spirit of wisdom and Revelation 

913
00:50:23,300 --> 00:50:25,600
in the knowledge of him. 
God wants to have a revelation 

914
00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:27,800
of him. 
The eyes of your heart, your 

915
00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:30,200
understanding being enlightened,
that you may know what is the 

916
00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:32,300
hope of his calling, what is the
riches of the glory of his 

917
00:50:32,300 --> 00:50:34,600
inheritance in the Saints and 
what is the exceeding greatness 

918
00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:38,600
of his power to Ward us who 
believe according to the working

919
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:40,400
of his mighty power? 
Which you worked in Christ when 

920
00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:42,500
he raised him from the dead, set
him at his own right hand in the

921
00:50:42,500 --> 00:50:45,600
Heavenly places far above all 
principality and power and might

922
00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:47,800
and dominion. 
And every name that is named not

923
00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:57,900
only in this age but also in 
that, which is to come Jesus is 

924
00:50:57,900 --> 00:51:03,300
Lord over all things in this age
and in the age to come, but in 

925
00:51:03,300 --> 00:51:06,600
the age to come, there's going 
to be the fullness of life 

926
00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:10,600
without persecution. 
Somebody says, well, what does 

927
00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:11,700
that do for me? 
Now? 

928
00:51:11,700 --> 00:51:14,400
Hebrews chapter 6, and verse 5, 
or more closer with the 

929
00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:16,800
scripture, I was going to quote 
it to you, but you need to read 

930
00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:24,500

Chapter 6 and verse 5. and if 

931
00:51:24,700 --> 00:51:32,400

Victory, full piece you over, 

934
00:51:41,700 --> 00:51:44,900

hold of this, even though, we're

935
00:51:44,900 --> 00:51:47,800
living in this age. 
Now with persecutions where the 

936
00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:53,200
enemy still operating you and I 
can reach over into the age to 

937
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:56,600
come. 
And when the sickness of this 

938
00:51:56,600 --> 00:51:59,700
age, tries to attack my body, I 
can reach over into the age of 

939
00:51:59,700 --> 00:52:03,200
to come and grab my healing. 
That's going to be full healing 

940
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:05,200
and bring.

When the enemy comes in tries to
steal my finances, I can reach 

944

over into the age to come and 
grab my Prosperity. 

945
00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:17,700
That I'm going to have over and 
bring it into the age. 

946
00:52:17,700 --> 00:52:18,900
I'm in right now. 
Why? 

947
00:52:18,900 --> 00:52:21,800
Because I'm an ageless child of 
the Living. 

948
00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:26,900
God, I'm not restricted to ages.
I'm living in this age but have

951
00:52:35,100 --> 00:52:39,100
that you have access to the age 
to come, no wonder, you begin to

952
00:52:39,100 --> 00:52:41,900
rule and reign as kings. 
And Priests on this earth right 

953
00:52:41,900 --> 00:52:44,700
now, no wonder your 
righteousness put you in a place

954
00:52:44,700 --> 00:52:47,600
where you walk in your rights 
and Privileges and you walk and 

955
00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,000
tread upon serpents and 
scorpions and over all the power

956
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:52,400
of the enemy. 
No wonder your prayer moves 

957

mountains and Shake cities and 
changes lives and delivers 

958
00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:58,100
people.

959
00:52:58,100 --> 00:53:01,000
agree with your wife, it comes 
to pass in your life. 

960
00:53:01,100 --> 00:53:03,600

into the age to come? 

964
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:15,200
When Jesus has set his throne 
upon the Earth and he's ruling 

965
00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:16,800
and reigning with this? 
Hallelujah. 

966
00:53:18,500 --> 00:53:23,800
