Dan Mohler - Awakening @ FUMC - 1 - Friday night

I got the finger point from pastor so I just jumped up here you get the finger point from pastor you better do something good deal hey it's good to be here guys was that a good ending song that was pretty awesome you know what you really pay attention don't just do a song service think about what we're doing singing pray and believe in right just important really important everybody doing good y'all quiet you guys like you're not scared right nowwe told you nothing weird or nothing right okay good I just had no fear what's up listen boy it was nervous I hope not I'm just a loving guy I love Jesus love thing you know what the gospel did a lot of things for me but one thing it showed me was the value of people if you really understand the gospel your days of valuing people some more than others less than others I don't like your personality boy they rubbed me wrong I that ended for me is actually a sign of transformation when you start seeing people for what they're called to created for and worth instead of what they're doing Jesus hung on a cross there's the biggest injustice ever they're killing him for nothing he was totally right they were sure he was wrong that's a scary thought truth every day in their streets truth every day truth total crystal clear truth every day and all they did was listen for what they didn't agree with and could never hear what he said and killed him and thought they were right that's scary the total truth could stand in front of you every day and you can't hear it in fact you hear the total opposite and you're actually sure he's wrong and you're right that's scary that keeps me for that same Jesus getting mistreated like that hangs on the cross and the best he can say his forgiving father they don't know what they're doing do you think he saw the value of people see I would learn from him I don't want to just get blessed by him I just don't want to get my name in a book called life because of what he did I want that life to be in me I want that life to live through me to look through me just shine through me I want everything he paid for in my life really we're gonna talk about a little bit just relax with me okay and he got me a little nervous I don't usually get nervous we hand me that paper and he said I was preaching for an hour he said now don't get too caught up in that for that sir sir people are just used to shorter service I said well I got to talk to him result must let's not feel like I'm just breaking it in an hour and then I have another problem I've never heard the control tower telling me to land the plane so I got a real problem I just stopped like I just stopped like I just stopped so bear with me and if you do get done before me just slip out it won't because of my preaching is I'm gonna preach good so I won't take it personal if you have to leave I'll just believe you have to leave but if you can't stay stay cuz I don't think you guys do weekends like this you don't do like a Friday Saturday like what in the world are you guys do and then Friday Saturday morning Saturday night Sunday morning I flew in for this thing why not because we have a contract because he's going to give me X amount of money we didn't talk about that uh what did I tell you I said forget the offering I'm not even coming for it did I tell you that you guys didn't buy my plane ticket Jesus bought it no church ever buys my plane ticket this is not a business deal I'm not here on business except for Kingdom this isn't some kind of contract this isn't my occupation and way of living it's a burning that's in my heart my life was changed yeah so this isn't a business for me this isn't like the way I'm gonna make a living so I'm going to deal with Pastor know if I was here for money I'd have took an invite where I knew it was a bigger Church I could have brought my invites you have no idea it's crazy and I'm not responsible for YouTube I don't own a computer I'm not I didn't put me on YouTube somebody did and somebody organized it and broke it down and categorized it and made ten minute clips and all this stuff people tell me I don't even know who did it it's amazing people tell me ministries pay money to get the stuff done that they did for me and I don't even know who's doing it it's pretty cool I had a pastor recently call me and we were talking and he said and I was explaining something to him that I was running into that I was trying to get wisdom on and he said well brother you should expect that if you put yourself all over YouTube you'd be careful how presumptuous you are he's just assuming I'm promoting myself I said sir I've never put me on YouTube I honestly don't know how I get on there he said what I said yeah be careful outward appearance snap judgment stuff I haven't I'm zero responsible for you two but you two is all over the world now so if the countries are inviting me to come to their countries and they don't even know me they're just watching YouTube and they're saying would you come I'm not joking a lot of countries asked me to come overseas to preach their churches and I'm humbled by it it's amazing so why am I here because I want to be because I see the value of people I just read an invite we have 4,000 that intend our church would you come but I'm here people a lot of pastors let me know how big their churches because they think that helps I actually go to some they say we're out in the byways somewhere we're in the cornfields of Illinois and I'm like I gotta go go really I feel like I've gotta go I find when I get there a lot of speakers don't go to those places you can't get a big crowd a lot of those places are in a culture and they're live in everyday life and they love Jesus the best say knowing but they're not thinking to go on a conference and taking the time and money to go do whatever they're just living in Jesus where they live it's neat when you can go there it's just neat so I kind of tend to gravitate to those places because this isn't a business for me it's just on my heart I'm just starting off this way where I'll just trust it'll work out in the end the gospel if you see a clear teaches is the value of people you see the value of people because while we were yet sinners he sent his son to shed his blood for us so is that just so we're forgiven or something can be redeemed and restored so we can grow up into him in all things and become something maybe he paid a high price not just so we can go to heaven someday but heaven could come into us and we could be restored back to what was lost through sin and separation from God maybe we can actually become different people maybe our motives can change our perspective can change maybe our reason for being can change maybe we actually I think I read this in the Bible put off the old man his deeds and actually put on a new man well if you put on a new man then there has to be a new why behind your life there has to be a new vision a new perspective come on if we're just doing this thing to get blessed we're probably not feeling very blessed we're probably aware of every adversity everything that's not in a row everything that's out of whack and our prayer life is driven by what's wrong and all of a sudden it's just about getting something from him instead of becoming something because of who he is come on Jesus did not shed his blood just to make sure you have enough money in the bank bless protected and all that stuff there was times Paul ran into all kinds of trouble not because he wasn't spiritual you guys good good to see you they were trawling me like a magnet I tried to stay away I tried to steer he showed me the value of people where people don't get on my nerves he gave me new nerves people don't get under my skin he gave me new skin I actually believe I understand what Jesus meant when he said forgive him they don't know what they do if people really knew who they were they wouldn't live the way they're living and he paid a price for him when they were living that way which means he saw something greater who pays a high price if they don't see the value do you just pay a high price because there's a debt or do you pay a high price because you're purchased possession when you obtain through the price is worth what you paid come on who here ever paid a high price for nothing I know you people come on to for 150 percent off or buy one get one free buffet all-you-can-eat come on you see it you wait for it to go on sale you know the seasons about over but you think oh well if I wait for its own sell catch a little we're out of it but I'll save it am i relating is this real coupons Clippers man you turning all that in you're reading how much you saved you're telling your husband he grunts he don't quite get it but you're saving man so here's the deal if we pay the price we ourselves are sure that what we're paying for is worth what we're paying well why don't we think about the gospel that way do you think he paid this price unless he's sure that the possession that he's obtaining through the purchase is well worth the price to him see because the end result is supposed to be Christ in you the hope of glory let your light so shine before men that they see your life and know there's a God that scripture come on this thing is not a passport to heaven it's the answer of a brand-new life it's getting free from yourself so you can get in him when you get free from yourself you get free from everybody else seriously when it's all about you then it's all about everybody else towards you so now you're just a people button away from having a bad day a trying day a frustrated day and angry gay a lot more on your plate me me me how I feel what they did what they did oh my and all of a sudden life is deciding who you are instead of the giver of it and all of a sudden how you're doing is based on how it's going instead of who he is in you and why and next thing you know we don't even realize what suddenly happened all of a sudden the gospel became a survival kit to help us make it you with me come on this is not a survival kit the gospel is not here to help you make it to the end you already made it if you're in him you already won you're in him he's in you yay like you're never gonna die it's not about death it's about life come on I've just been around a little bit I grew up in the church I grew up in a couple different churches mom mixed it up to try to keep me like oh my god judge she said well as I got older she switched it up when I got in my mid-teens she took me somewhere where they had drums like that in a case I don't even think they were in the case back then and she figured out taking there maybe he'll like it maybe he'll like watch trying to keep me engaged it's the message that keeps you engaged it's nothing out here it's the truth that makes you free not to church you attend the truth Christianity is in church attendance Christianity is Christlikeness and we gather ourselves together and don't forsake that gathering so we can keep each other's stirred in love and good works that's Bible it's Hebrews 10 the whole reason we gather isn't because it's the church we belong to the whole reason Bible that we gather is to stay stirred up and focused and why he came and who we are now that he's here and guys if we miss that we miss what being a Christian is and all of a sudden we let the things we do for him take the place of knowing him which changes us you guys don't care you were really staring at me like am I too worked up I'm okay I'm trying to stay calm enough to communicate I'm talking plain come on this is a big deal it's good tidings good tidings of great joy I'm not being nitpicky judgmental not a lot of great joy great joy joy unspeakable among us there's a lot of other things speaking louder than truth a lot of us are only doing as good as it's going as good as we feel we've allowed to live ourselves who taught ourselves to live through our attitudes and emotions instead of faith and truth pinions dime-a-dozen well I feel well I think well whatever and it's a giveaway that we haven't learned what it means to live by the spirit we've been trained by a lie our whole life's people our whole lives we were we were born into Adam none of us were one with God when we were born we were separate we all needed born again you tell me where it's not correct literally every one of us were born into the world into the Adam the fall of man to the wisdom of the world to the way that seemeth right to a man and your whole motive was self-centered from the time you can remember it was all about you before you could speak in a language you were self-centered it's what happened when man sinned everything got perverted not three 6180 God made man in His image in the Garden of Eden he didn't just make man he made man for his image for his own likeness where we've lived so far from that that we don't even think about that because we say where does evil fall in Flast our hearts are wicked you know did it and we quote all the Old Testament but you ought to look at the new the news amazing the new let's stop following our own experience and one another and follow him because he said follow him it must be possible must be possible to live by the spirit if he says to live by the spirit don't be afraid of this stuff this is awesome it changed me it put this passion you see in me so I'm either a good actor and now that we expose someday or this is real to me it's good tidings of great joy when you understand the good tidings joy explodes in your heart you're not trying to have joy you're not going up to the order for joy you see the truth and it makes you free and he that's free it's free why because you see and you're not gonna be tricked again you're not gonna live lower you're not gonna the way that seems right to man is exposed if it's not produced in life it can't be him if the mentality isn't encouraging my heart how can it be the Lord or instead self-centered things see you know how many people are Christians for themselves dude how many Christians have become Christians because the message they heard to become a Christian was self beneficial and they didn't even die to themselves along the way they just inherited something they say they just signed up for something so they signed up to go to heaven they signed up for blessings signed up for protection do you know that Jesus said in the Gospels in Mathew if you don't love less your mama your your Papa your spouse your children your houses your land and yes your own life if you don't love those things less you'll by no means no way ever be my disciple and be a wholehearted follower of what I created you for and most people are Christians for the well-being of that list and don't understand what he means so if anything happens on that list they fall apart shut down mad at God quit prayin and whatever happens becomes their testimony stereotypes them for 20 years a pastor long enough to know that's true I've seen a lot of good people get deceived and get hurt through a lack of understanding and Jesus said forgive them father they don't know what they do so you don't judge him for the lack of understanding you cry out loud the truth you keep teaching people how they are you keep teaching people who hire and the ones that don't want to listen and hear it that's fine that's their business that's their privilege but Jesus said he who has ears to hear let him hear but this is a strong sharp statement you know who's hearing by the way they live not the way they speak your life lived reveals what you believe and understand are you following me he paid for something amazing he did not just pay for the forgiveness of your sins he paid to put his life inside of us he paid to make us new wineskins so he could hold the new line he paid for us to die to ourselves so he could live unto Him see here's what happened I saw it in my Bible and it just twenty three years ago changed me put passion in me changed the way I think the way I live the way I see you people just don't bother me anymore I love people you say you can't love all people I love people they're all worth the blood it's not a generic spiritual preacher statement that you're supposed to say cause you're wearing a mic it's something you live you know that if they really knew they wouldn't do the things they're doing that's why I unforgiveness has no place then anymore in your life because it doesn't ever come personal anymore because you denied yourself you're living for the kingdom Matthew 6:33 you seek ye what not second the kingdom of God not your well-being not your preference you don't seek you first your preference come on let me talk plain you're gonna think for the kingdom or you'll think for yourself it's one or the other there's nothing in the middle if you're truly discouraged you have to be focused on yourself how it ain't working the way you thought which which you got to go through now with this thing puts you through now how you gotta pay up if you're discouraged you're focused on yourself you're nothing for the kingdom and we think discouragement is a normal modern life and that everybody has it at some level you show me discouragement in Jesus here's discouragement in Jesus sitting on the Mount of Olives at night wise disciples of sleeping father I just don't think people appreciate me I mean I'm trying hard man I mean I'm loving I mean how much more got more to play the food I'm raising the dead they're trying to figure out what demons possess to me they they aren't seeing you in my life they think I'm a blasphemer when I say my father they're like your father's the devil look you're not from God they don't they're not receiving from me and I just don't know I'm just not encouraged I don't know how I can face them tomorrow I'm a little you're gonna have to minister to me through the night here because in fact yesterday when they came back for to see me it's only because I fed him the day before not called him on it I called him on it and and when I called him on it they walked away because they were they knew I was right but they wouldn't admit it and they didn't want to change so they walked away rather than change so I'm supposed to just yeah and go yeah and just be mr. Christian tomorrow I'm not feeling this could you imagine Jesus carrying the cross never doing one thing even slanted not even slanted everything he did was flawlessly pure and they're crucifying him and spitting on him and kicking him and beating him again and again and again and again this is real this stuff is real to me this is the kind of guy I'm done being embarrassed over what I believe he did nothing wrong and they beat him again and again and again and it wouldn't change him we would have never made it close to that floor but even if halfway through he did just stop we too understood but he can't stop cuz he's loved cuz he ain't here for himself he's here for us so the sin against him had no power to produce sin in him because he loves not his own life unto death so he can't drop the cross preachers say this to this day they say one of the biggest examples of God's love for us he could have came down from the cross but he didn't know he couldn't love cam fail he can't come down from the cross it's not an option it's not an option he's not hanging they're gone what a bunch of knuckleheads Barabbas are you kidding me those blind fools they are I mean Barabbas is in prison for killing a man I raised the dead he's causing conspiracy I'm trying to bring peace and they want to release Barabbas and and crucify me I'll tell you what now that I'm thinking this I don't even think I'm gonna die on this cross he doesn't even know how to think that way you say why cuz he's Jesus cuz he's loved because he's totally selfless cuz it's not about him at all it's about the father and you it's about the father and you and then he says if you want to follow me there's something you got to do deny yourself he didn't say pray a prayer and make sure you're in the book in case you in a tree when you leave the service that's what we preach that's not what he preached we preach a self-serving gospel continually and we have discouraged people that attend church weekly that have been rendered it's yeah they've been rendered of no effect where Christ is concerned in their life but she's trying to be polite where the light isn't on because it's still all about them and what they need and how it did why they and how come they why did they and they should have because if any of that is in your life you're rendered unproductive you can't shine and the whole reason light is in your so you shine so if the enemy can trick us into doin church without being Church there we know light to shine so then the light of the world doesn't really get seen even though we sing about him and talk about him and it gets swallowed up in our attitudes and the wrong perspectives and perceptions but jesus said if any of you want to come after me let him first deny himself that's first deny yourself realize you were never made for you never made for you you were made for His image from the beginning Christ in you the hope of glory oh my goodness were onto something now I start finding that in my Bible in 1995 ah yeah very excited you say calm down you're wrong no you're way wrong about calming down I'm gonna stand before him someday and so are you you ought to jumpstart your heart yourself if you can come on don't get along to sleep don't get spiritually deceived don't become religious don't hang all around him and talk all about him and sing all about him without pursuing becoming more like him because he's amazing and he will change the world in us here's how I know this is right every church he could get filled in every Church this weekend on Sunday all across the world every single seat filled and it won't change the world but becoming love house - laying down your own life denying yourself picking up your cross and following him begins to influence everybody's sphere of influence and together we are an army and all of a sudden the earth begins to get touched by his glory and ultimately covered by his glory why because we walk in love and we make peace and we show mercy and we ain't harden our hearts and say well I'm trying to forgive we don't even have a grid for unforgiveness cuz we've been forgiven of everything we've ever done are you hearing me once this heart cries just the heart cry I'm just trying out my heart don't get overwhelmed by it get touched by it get him powered by it go ahead and get convicted it's a good word it means to shine light upon the way that seemeth right well I can't believe they did that - yeah and they said well they shouldn't no I know it must have hurt you must be so hurt here let's pray Jesus isn't even in that it's just you taking care of it that says you understand their pain and you would hurt if you were in their shoes that means you can't even help them you can just console' them and sympathize do you think Jesus is in that arena he doesn't even know how to be that way well I can't believe they did that to me wonder if God thought that for a day we're all in trouble why can't he think that way cuz he's God because he's love let's not miss it that's not over spiritual eyes that missed the point he's not that way because he's God he's that way cuz he's loved what makes him so amazing is he's loved and it's a love that we've never seen why because we were born outside of it we were separated from it through sin so Jesus takes away the sin to get us grafted back in and reconnected to the vine so 1st Timothy 1:5 the goal of our instruction is love not blessing love so you deny yourself you lay down your life your love not your own life unto death you seek ye first the kingdom of God and you live for his name's sake so your days of frustration are truly challenged now yeah your days of bitterness and anger and unforgiveness super-challenge now because all of a sudden I realized if I can't find it in him why's it accepted in me if I'm made for his image as he is so are we in this world as the father sent me so I send you the things I do you'll do if you believe you need any more Scripture there's a few I read the book man he's firstborn among many brethren were predestined to be conformed to his image Colossians 3:10 were putting off the old man putting on the new man who is renewed in knowledge according to the image of the very one who made him and you know I was taught growing up or we're just saved by the skin of our teeth well we're just old sinful wretches it's amazing he considers us we're just nobodies it's amazing God and I just think it's God lonely that he wants me for a friend like why she want me in heaven no no he wants heaven in me he wants heaven in me we make it all about going to heaven someday and he's gone the kingdom of God is here yeah don't look here don't look there for the kingdom of God is within you and go preach saying the kingdom something about bullhorn he's talking about your life speaking your attitude your perspectives your motives oh my goodness when I got ahold of this I realized my days and watch this don't get don't get too challenged by this get encouraged I realized my days of complaining or over because when you complain it's a short sign of self-centeredness things don't suit you things aren't going your way some Burger Kings pop up have it your way I'm just kidding I'm not against Burger King I'm really not actually I like a whopper every about three months maybe four it's been about six actually but but they are good but everything's too convenient everything's about us everything's about our sake you're not a Christian for you you're Christian for his great name you're Christian to become loved and be restored back to everything that was from the beginning before there was ever separation from God so what's that mean you got to get renewed in the spirit of your mind that center core that wellspring of your mind that foundational place where everything flows from renewed in the spirit that means the heart of your life the why behind your life man you used to wake up for you now you wake up for his great name that's different you used to pray for your sake now you pray for his namesake that's a different prayer you used to go to work for provision and benefits now you go to work to shine that's different well sudden you aren't complaining anymore and praying for a new job with a Christian atmosphere oh I've been around us it's one the number one prayers I just can't stand my job pastor I'm having a hard time I've been putting in applications I don't know why God won't let somebody just call me I wish he'd move because I can't stand working there I thought I was only working a couple months and I've been there eight months now I can hardly stand it my boss oh my goodness faster he gets on my nerves I said God doesn't get me out of there I don't know what I'm gonna do and I'm like I hope he balls and change you there for the rest of your so you get a revelation that this is not about you your preferences because if you don't deal with that it'll be something else even if you get a new job it'll be something else cuz the platform's still laid the foundation still there what's about just living from event to event moment to moment jumping from people to people it's about getting right on the inside so when you look through new eyes you see new things and all the sudden you're weeping for your boss instead of dreading going to work and all of a sudden Jesus becomes relatable forgiving father man if he knew who he was he wouldn't be doing what he's doing oh my goodness he doesn't know you I say I do and I'm letting this man decide my life every day I say your Lord my boss has governed me for the last four months Wow I need to know you mark in Jesus Christianity is a whole lot more than praying for people to become what suits you yay silly right now some of its your faces your faces are funny it's a deliverance meeting it's like I keep the doors open and we'll all leave we'll all be good in the end in the end we'll all be free come on I don't want to ever teach myself to let things matter more that don't matter most because that's where you stumble that's the thing that's keeping your soul from being free and having true joy because you're not seeing things for the way they really are in him and you think you got problems and you got answers are you with me come on oh my goodness I'll just throw this out and we'll teach into it all weekend I'm sure wonder if you let the gospel teach you this one thing especially this weekend if you just let the gospel this whole awakening song in prayer which is awesomely if you just let the gospel teach you this one thing that every morning you wake up no one owes you a thing because the goal of your instruction is love love doesn't seek its own takes no account of the wrong done time we say I love you and then we're all busted up by the people we say we love so we prove we don't even know what love is we think it's an emotional feeling usually when you say I love you you're actually saying I need you you're making my world work don't change that I have expectations on you don't let me down you're my fulfillment don't back out on me now that's usually what I love you means in relationships now I'm just getting real because we believe the people closest to us can hurt us the most and I'm puzzled by that because they're the ones we say we love and love doesn't seek its own and takes no account no account of the wrong done to it why because it doesn't seek its own so isn't it amazing so that's my covenant marriage they broke covenant how much been there well you don't put your trust in flesh you're not finding your identity through your marriage covenant your marriage come that just means all that is mine is yours hello we don't realize how we're finding identity through one another and we're not finding identity through him so people fail us continually let us down continually and we're doing no better than what we've been through and how we're handling it through the needs in her life if somebody does you wrong why is it so easy to cry because of them instead of cry for them Jesus cried for him with his life we cried because of them with a counseling session with the pastor there's a difference hello you can't believe what they did to me well how would you feel if they you tried to run that one by Jesus come on you try to run that one by Jesus and if you can't find how you're responding in his life you ought to question how you're responding because you didn't learn it from him and he's the teacher and he said let no one on the earth be your teacher you have one teacher and he's the Christ so if you can't find it in his think and wiesen and are thinking if he didn't teach us that because life taught us that but we're not to be conformed to the world Romans 12:2 we're not to be conformed to the world it's ideas it's logic it's reasoning we're to be transformed by the renewing of our mind I studied out you know what it means thinking like you've never fought before well where you're gonna get new thoughts from your life from new wine from someone new yeah see this is a whole lot more than him signing you up on a roll this is him putting who he is inside of you so we can be the body of Christ on the earth and let our light so shine before men and whether we live or whether we die we do it unto the Lord and whatever we do whether we eat whether we drink whatever we do we do it all for the glory of God that doesn't sound like being discouraged that doesn't sound like having issues that doesn't sound like being disappointed that doesn't sound like being let down by the people I'm depending on the most sounds like being free from yourself and free from everybody else so that you can actually shine and look like Jesus in the midst of it all what's so special when somebody treats you wrong and you react you're just like every man that never went to church I'm sorry I'm just being real so what have we accomplished if we come here for the next 30 years put a little something every time the baskets passed listen to Pastor sing-along with Lee and his team get thrown into crisis and respond like the man that never went to church who doesn't even believe in God I bet we've missed something if that's the case when Jesus said to let your light so shine before men you know the scripture that came to my heart I'm actually on the page we were during worship and I haven't preached now the scripture for a long time but it's all what I'm saying it's for sessile onehans chapter 4 it says you know how people say we throw the will of God around like a hot potato yeah well visions 5:17 says don't be unwise understand what the little Lord is don't be unwise as opposed to remembered not be conformed to the world transformed by the renewing of your mind you know why so you can prove the good acceptable and perfect will of God yeah 1st Peter 2 says that when you suffered for doing wrong and taking patiently what what big deal is that if you suffer for doing wrong and taking patiently you ought to but if you suffer for doing good and take it patiently now that's commendable before God it says for to this you were called everybody wants to know they're calling first Peter chapter 2 suffering for doing good and not letting it change you yeah that's your calling I don't know what they're calling speaking in stadiums a nation give me a nation god how about just walking and humility and loving your neighbor maybe you'll grow into a nation [Laughter] I'm just convinced of this and a preaching with passion if we miss become in love and what that really means to become love we've missed the whole reason Jesus died on that cross because he did not die on that cross to take you to heaven he died on that cross to restore what was lost when Adam sinned for some reason we're not teaching that all across this land and then are getting saved for self-serving reasons and they're discouraged and sometimes mad at God that's a dead giveaway right there well if God was good then how come if God wasn't good why'd he send his son when you were lost in a sinner the question isn't if God is good or not the question is do we even understand and are we holding our lives against his or are we letting his become ours come on I've been saved long enough to see a lot of hurting people a lot of confused people a lot of frustrated people people come to church and they're not even engaged in the song you're good because they have three reasons why it's probably not good because they have three memories in their life and all of a sudden we got tricked into being a Christian for what it can do for us and we feel like he's failing us terribly instead of being Christians for how he can make us more like him so our light skin so shine the whole reason mercy wakes you up every day is to have one more day to be like him to live by the spirit into walking truth mercy gives you another day to walk in the light as he's in the light first John - if any man says he abides in him he ought to walk even as he walked well that's impossible Dan read your Bible grace says it's not so who you gonna believe your experience your neighbors experience or Jesus and trust that what he paid for and the grace that comes with it is well able to make the difference in my life if I'm willing so wonder if you go close a bedroom door and get on your knees say man I don't want to live for the things of yesterday I don't want to live for my own self I don't want to be tricked and deceived to wake up one day and find that it was a mixed blend of motives in my life I just want to know what it means to seek you first your Kingdom the love not my own life unto death to surrender it all for your great name working me Holy Spirit bring change to me and help me to see through your eyes wonder if you get alone and just start talking like that actually praying like that see until things are located we're not even thinking that way we're just praying for bills to be paid protection on our kids the job to go well no accidents green lights all the things that benefit us Christians are funny praying for blessings in favor like that they pray think it's spiritual if you can make it through town and get all the green lights they think they're rocking out faith or something here's what you're missing when your lights green somebody's is red and you're not even thinking about that you're supposed to prefer one another not consider your own interests but the interests of others and somehow we think faith is believing for a light to be green all you're asking is everybody else to get held up for your sake and you're calling it spiritual it's so messed up yep and it's a giveaway we think the gospel is here for us instead of his great name that's why there's discouraged Christians on the earth and it's unscriptural discouraged Christians are unscriptural I can show you in the Bible consider him who endured such it see bruised 12:3 I'll just give you this one consider him who endured such hostility against himself from sinners least you be weary and discouraged in your souls don't you complain once you say discouragement leads to complaining don't you complain like they did in the wilderness because if you complain you'll be devoured like they were by the one who devours you'll be destroyed by the destroyer why because Satan's seek Him looking around like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour he says all Christian for yourself you're easy come on a little circumstance of trouble you'll fall apart just push this this off easy target you're a giveaway all about you you sang well well it was all about him but you just proved it's all about you my complaining I'm says do all things not some things all things without grumbling and complaining Philippians 2 these aren't laws and commands because God's a legalist they're written in wisdom for your sake so you can rightly walk in him it's not he's not loading you up with a bunch of rules he's loading you up with his heart and then all those things that he lists are a given he says do all things not sum all things without grumbling and complaining why so you can be seen as an innocent child in the midst of a twisted up world who's living for other things whom you shining forth was alight hold forth the Word of Life Philippians 2 it's there right after he says he gave him the name above every name that in his name every knee in tünel Oh bow and confess that he's Lord heaven earth under the earth you therefore work out your own salvation in fear and trembling for it's God who works in you both to will and do for his good pleasure therefore do all things without grumbling and complaining it's in your Bible I found it it's liberating it's better if you believe it not just read it but believe it because when you believe it it becomes your life oh my goodness someone becomes your life I think that's what he paid for new life through Jesus Christ it's not positional it's authentic and expression yay come on it's just fun are you okay I'm afraid to look at my watch I'm so scared to look at my watch I just died only I'm just putting in my pocket let's freaking me out I got a bunch of sessions though I'll be easy I'll just be easy I'm just gonna actually out say Lord I've never heard you asked me to land the plane but please tonight for their sake we're meeting when are we meeting tomorrow what's it what's the time is there service in the morning yeah we you actually called a service at 10 in the morning on a Saturday I did okay I did the reason we have all these services we want to talk about these things we want to talk about how we can become these things how easy it is how your heart has to be willing you can't just hear the word you got to become the word there's two men in Matthew 7 once foolish and ones wise the wise man heard and applied and became what he heard and the storm came to destroy what was being built it didn't come to destroy the occupant adversities not after you it's after the kingdom adversities trying to stop the kingdom the the adversity could care less if you're on the earth it cares less if you're on the earth in the kingdom and then we make adversity all about us what I'm going through hardship not again it's all about the kingdom guys if you miss that you're gonna make a big mistake and that self-centered things gonna turn on us again and bite us again and we just think it's all about us hello come on man there's a demonic war against the kingdom of God and you get to fight and stand and live on behalf of the king why because you came out of darkness into the light you're sanctified and set apart you're in the world and not of the world you love not your own life unto death we overcome that's all scripture that's not this hallelujah Sunday stuff boo boo boo boo boo boo that's the word of the Lord yay come on that's so good so we died off all these things we've been so we can become what he's created us to be it's just beautiful but you got to say yes you got to say yes you got to be willing to let go of the rights you inherited through the fall of man why did Jesus tell us to deny ourself because we were all born into self-centeredness without asking every man from the time you can remember every woman every child I don't care how old how young in this room from the time you can remember it's been all about you how you feel who is who is instability valued appreciated reputation do they like me don't they like me I don't fit in who they think I'm cool oye come on from the time you can remember extremely self-conscious self focused self centered self protecting self defending self hating why because how to meet that tree and get cut off from the source of love and became in need of love so instead of being loved he became in need of love a minute ago he's made in God's image and he's the expression of his father totally fulfilled in him and he don't need nothing he needed one thing he needed a woman why to have an outlet to multiply the love to have an avenue an avenue to pour the love on we think like Adams lonely you're not quite complete pal I got a plan go to sleep you'll be surprised when you get off whoa man to God you are rocking it that's what we think growing up in the fall that's why we laughed so hard because that's all over the earth there wasn't that way from the beginning what it was from the beginning is he made man and woman you'll find it right in Genesis both male and female in his own image in his own likeness he said man this is awesome he blessed it and said be fruitful and multiply what's he talking about his image his likeness Adam the day you eat the tree is the day you surely die did he fall over dead we say well then what died people say his spirit well we don't even know what that means it just sounds spiritual he died he died who he was created to be the image is lost separated from God everything in the breath gone through sin so Adam didn't just sin he took on the nature of God's enemy and became completely self-centered full of pride and separate from God Matthew 18 says Jesus came to save not who that which was lost something was lost through Adam Jesus came to buy it back and we make it all about benefiting us and taking us to heaven someday instead of restoring us back to the image back to love that's why he says above all to know the love of Christ to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge is to be filled with all the fullness of God I looked up that word you know what it means a house with no empty rooms it means a town with no empty houses it means a ship so full of cargo there's nowhere to put one more box isn't that what Adam was before sin in the Father's love completely fulfilled he said it ain't good did this guy be alone there is none comparable sleep reached in to the fullness of God he didn't make another lump of clay woman man he reached into the fullness of God in man and brought out the woman and may what was one two so two could be one and multiply the earth with his glory that's the plan now we've turned it into wow I ain't getting any younger sure love to have some kids say she's hot boy he's a hunk can't believe he likes me ooh feeling a little lonely could use some arms wrapped around me hello and there's been so much pain in that arena and so much hurt and so much failed 'no sand broken promises an emotional driven madness that you know it can't be from the beginning how's that for straight but we've grown up with us not what he saw time to get born again why cuz every man since that day was born into Adam and born into what he was and you must be born and you know what we did with that we turned it into a self serving prayer that I repeat that qualifies me for heaven when I die and that's the big push on the earth to get everybody to pray that prayer instead of become his life well if you were the enemy you'd probably love the way we're handling the gospel pray the prayer get qualified for heaven allowed the same attitude same anger same frustration same animosity at home same silent treatment to your spouse when you're not happy with them same but hey I prayed the prayer whew I'm in any man that says he abides in him ought to walk even as he walked let your light so shine before a man the things I do you'll do if you believe as the father sent me I sent you as he is so are we now you understand why Timothy that says first Timothy 1:5 the goal of our instruction it's love so I first Corinthians 13 says if you have knowledge of all mysteries not some all faith to move every mountain not some all but don't have love you've missed the whole point ain't that so said if he loved us this way oh we not love one another beloved let us love one another for God is love first John 4:7 and everyone not some everyone who is born of God and he knows come watch he who loveth not this doesn't know God didn't say you don't go to church didn't say you don't pastor didn't say you don't travel and preach he said if you don't love there's one not to one reason you don't know him he didn't say you don't see your need for a savior he didn't say you aren't sorry for the sins you committed he's just saying if you don't love there's one Bible reason you haven't been intimate with him you haven't known him you haven't been with him and what he's telling me is it's impossible to know him and not become like you that's inspiring so I don't want on a Christian ringtone screensaver t-shirt bumper sticker and music playing and not be with him and let the things I do Christian take the place of knowing him if knowing him transforms my eyes because this is eternal life not that you prayed a prayer to go to heaven in case you die this is eternal life John 17:3 that you might know him the whole goal isn't preaching him the whole goal isn't singing him the whole goal is knowing him and he's telling me that I can't know him without being changed by him you did it so I didn't come here to get you to pray a prayer with me I came here to call you into the why behind the gospel deny your pick up your that means don't let sin against you produce sin in you don't let the things in your life decide your life let who he is decide you not how it's going not how you feel what you believe follow him if you don't deny yourself you'll never carry your cross if you're a Christian for your sake you're in for a long hard ride you'll pray for your spouse to change not because you love them because you're mad at them and you'll think you're being spiritual and praying and your friends will surround you because they're hurting for you too and they'll dig in and pray loud and hard to off from the wrong twisted place and you'll wonder why five years went by and it's worse because nobody's taking the time to value the person and understand that if they really knew who they were they wouldn't be living the way they're living and nobody's even prayed because of mercy they've just prayed because of pain and once again we prove were in survival mode not Jesus mode and now we're just trying to get by and use God to do it it'll never work that way my wife pray for me for thirteen years to change and at the end of thirteen years you know what she said I'm done with him and I said great I did I said great and then I took it a little further why did I waste thirteen years with you anyway the whole family thinks you're crackpot I can do way better than you I'm not the best looking cat in a planet but somebody will need me I don't know why I'm hanging out with you and I made it hurt because I wasn't gonna come out here so she went in the bedroom and forced herself to not cry and she said I'm done with him and you know what she did she told me she looked at the ceiling and said and I'm done with you she made a fist at God and watch what she said analytics analytical I have prayed to you for 13 years you've done nothing you have allowed me and these children to suffer through hell I've prayed and I've prayed and I'm sure he's worse you've done nothing I don't need you either and walked out of the room somehow we get the idea he's here to serve us and our needs instead of Father us and make us more like him seven long months six and a half long months later I get gloriously saved and she is this mad as compare furious what a slap in the face cuz it's over now it's too late even if you are changed it's too late I didn't get saved for my marriage to be healed I got saved because I saw the wretched state of my heart and then I needed you to like me to believe I was likeable that I was a hundred percent hypocrite that there was a zero inside of me and I was empty I never even thought about the restoration of my marriage I thought about how pitiful my life was on that night it was just me and God in a Hall in an Iowa and I went a human being around and I broke and I cried now it's never so serious if your real love me can forgive me and have a plan for my life I'm yours I'll live for you God reality came over me God breathed life into me oh my goodness she put a ring on my finger and robed me and put slippers on my feet I be there was awesome has it wore off since I think I'm a little worse just know him a little more well my wife found out she's furious seven weeks in he meets her in the bathroom she's just doing her hair to go out on the town she's living her life doing her hair pretty enough and he comes in the bathroom like he's owned in the place and she said she went because she knew he was standing there the last conversation she had with him was this seven weeks later he strolls in the bathroom he's not insecure he's not hurt by her he's not an unforgiveness he didn't come to straighten her out he spoke to her she said she heard it right here as almost as if she could hear it here Kim why are you so angry with that man separating me from the unforgiveness that was in her heart separating me from the memories in the vision because the face looked the same but well not totally she hasn't seen me since I grew my beard she said well you sound like Dan you just don't look like ya people that don't like my beard talk like that I've learned to handle it they talk in riddles but after season I got you didn't I see now you're all red the face he said why are you so angry with that man can't you see and she said it was like somebody tore something off of her eyes as the years of unresolved conflict human reasoning rightness well he shouldn't well he said well how much am I supposed to take well I ain't nobody's doormat well I tried and tried try yeah wonder if God took that initiative for one day none of us have hope that's how you know it's wrong it never produces life it justifies your state if your if your mindset justifies your current state of being then you know you're missing the truth are you with me I'm wrapping up I am don't walk out on me yet we're at the best part we're gonna close here we're gonna pray we'll be done don't walk out on me yet it's too good it's too good you're gonna miss the best part stay step we gotta put a hand out shock collars and make them think they're make them think their conference bracelets and if they cross the line they'll run to their seat come on we got to do that tomorrow you can come up with that well no they won't come then they won't come okay he's in the bathroom with her he says can't you see that's not even the man you're angry with he said in fact him that's not even the man you marry this is my favorite part of the whole testimony I have made him a brand new man now ain't that what the gospel is all about becoming brand new not a confession a new life not a language an expression he said I have made him brand new man she hit the floor crying in a fetal position undone crying why because the love of God came in and changed her eyes and pulled up and got her focus off of her and got it back on the truth the biggest lie on the planet I'm convinced of this I say it everywhere I go I'm not the brightest man I'm not a philosopher but I believe this is right I don't believe the biggest problem on the planet is the president I don't believe it's Isis and racial whatever conflicts the biggest problem on the planet is that every day men that are made for God's image wake up and live for themselves and then we're bound by our own wisdom in our own answers and one day we'll find we were horribly deceived the everyday men wake up and live for themselves when in fact here for His image James 3:13 says who is wise and understanding among you let improve by the good conduct of their life that the works are done in the meekness of wisdom but if you have envy or self seeking in your heart stop boasting and lying against the truth stop appearing to be something you haven't allowed yourself to become what it's saying is there is zero permission for self-centeredness it's boasting and lying against the truth because men were made for love so when you live for self-centeredness you're lying against the truth says this wisdom this wisdom self-centered wisdom all I can't believe what they did you oh you must be so heard oh honey come here that wisdom that wisdom that keeps that pain supported never came from above it didn't descend from above its earthly sensual flesh driven and demonic where there's envy and self seeking existing I'm quoting scripture every evil work is present ain't that something so a spouse was in the bedroom agitated her frustrated offended enough is enough how much am I supposed to take God you need to change them god I am so tired of them they just feel me and spit on me they don't respect me or value me they say they love me yeah right you need to knock them off their high horse god I'm just praying right now and you're just letting it fly and you're reading all David's songs cut off their head break their leg chop off their arm cut them down my enemy mm-hmm and then you start binding and rebuke in the devil devil rebuke you you get out of my home you get out of my marriage and your motive is the very platform and landing strip for him to remain because all you are is hurt and you're saying everything for your own sake not one thing is motivated by love just pain then you're rebuking the devil then in your rebuke you're inviting him to stand because of where your hearts sitting in the moment that's pretty sobering in then you say why is God letting all this he ain't letting nothing you're positioned for it time to repent and change my wife fell on the floor curled up and crying he hovered over her and now he's making peace for all those months ago he said hey cam it's true you prayed to me for thirteen weeks or thirteen years it's true for thirteen years you prayed but you have no idea how you bound my hands for never answering your prayer for ever moving on what you were praying because never once did you pray for mercy from love come from passion you never prayed because you hurt for what he didn't understand you only prayed cuz of pain he told her she was reduced to another hurting wife that prays he said I can't answer that prayer and allow you to stay there cuz that's not me and I made you for my image she cried uncontrollably finally get off the floor and ran looking for me before that she did just as soon clawed my eyes out I don't know where that button is but it was pushed oh I so quiet me cuz she's precious but in those period of time oh just kept your distance and thank you Jesus but now she's running for me crying out of control and when I see her slam through the door running to me out in the backyard where I was I'm working the garden she's running I thought somebody died I thought she got a phone call and somebody just got killed the car wreck cuz she's crying runnin right at me crying hysterically crying but I could hear her talking repetitively under her breath as she's running she was going I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm so sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry isn't it amazing she saying she's sorry I lived unloving self-centered a wretch of a husband for 13 years and didn't try at all put pressure on her non-stop on any talk show I'm a villain she's a victim and the gospel comes to her heart in the bathroom and she's sorry got her eyes off of me off of herself on to the kingdom and now she's sorry she's running to me and I'm like sorry you're sorry for what I'm sorry I'm the one that wants to say I'm sorry she grabs me poof she's crying hard now I'm crying it's a mess it was it was very sloppy could hardly talk all this pent-up emotion and God is ravaging us with truth oh it was so amazing she's assumed she sobbing I'm sorry besides why are you sorry oh my goodness Kim I've never pursued to be like Jesus not one day have I loved you I'm finally ready to love you and be like Christ in your life I wanted to say I'm sorry and for the first time in my life I know I have loved him are done and I'm crying and I said you can't be sorry there's nothing but she said I am sorry for not loving you in prayer she said every time I prayed it was only about me knowing that if God changed you it would make my life better I am sorry forgive me for not it's pretty heavy isn't it amazing how many rights we have that never came from him you just grow up in the way that seems right you were homeschooled in the wrong home the wisdom of the world your teacher your tutor your guide your friends talk shows newspapers articles there's a tone set we're being taught from the time we can remember but it's outside of him and it gives you a constant right to be less than who he is a constant right to express things he never would that's how we can see we've been deceived the last thing you need is another reason to not be like him well I wouldn't be this way if it wasn't for this this and this will this this and this isn't Lord why is it governing your life come on guys if I've stirred one thing in you tonight where do you live from and why do you live at all what's your motive in life what are you really seeking happiness fulfillment stability without becoming what you're here for none of those things will truly exist but if you'll let the gospel teach you that one thing I said oh I'll go and when you wake up in the morning nobody owes you a thing wonder if you bring that into your marriage wonder if I'm serious about that and I wake up every day and it has nothing to do with my wife it has to do with me loving her and being like Jesus period and if she's having a trying day all the more love all the more grace all the more compassion well you're gonna enable her what the goodness of God leads men to change well won't she make you a doormat I don't think Jesus was a doormat I think he was the living epistle of love and he's transformed my life so I want to be like him and say forgive them father they know not what they do I'm not the brightest men in the planet but I know a couple of things it takes two to tango and I'm not talking about dancing it takes one to pursue peace two to tango one to pursue peace a root shut up at a dry ground truth sprang out of the earth we beheld him in grace and truth he dwelt among us at the end he said follow me ha think I'm gonna you're coming along are you gonna hold on to the rights you inherited through Adam the things you were taught by man are you gonna deny yourself pick up your cross and follow him and be a peace maker blessed are the peace makers for these are the sons of God see sons God is in a confession it's an expression it's what we are the children of God are you all good are you sure you seem good I'm afraid to look at my watch I don't think I did terrible did I I'm gonna look at it by faith okay we're just about done see we did good like we were supposed to be done actually I was supposed to be done 20 minutes ago if my things was right well 23 minutes dude 24 so I'm only 24 minutes over that means I preach an hour in 24 minutes I never stop at 2 hours you guys are catching a break two hours is a given when I travel I'm like I get up get on a plane I'm gonna preach the gospel you'll put a mic on me I'm preaching and I'm preach no no I'm wrapping up I die no you see I'm setting you up cuz you don't know me some of you I can tell I can feel you'll know me so when I say I'm wrapping up you're comforted my wrap ups an hour here's what we want to do tonight I'm not I'm not we don't need an otter call for what I preached here's why you're called to live by faith you don't need an order call for what I preach you just need a sincere heart before the Lord you either take what I gave and say man I'm gonna consider this ponder this pray on this yield to this or you're gonna go see here's what I've asked like I didn't speak in riddles you can't say what'd he say there ain't nobody sitting here going what did he say tonight it's too plain children hear it I've said Lord if I'm gonna preach in front of people I need I need one of two responses out of men when I'm finished you say why not one cuz he's not a controller he's a father I need one of two responses that a man would say man I hear what you're saying Dan and I want that or a man would say you know Dan I hear what you're saying I just don't want it but don't let a man say what'd he say I don't think you're saying what he said how much simpler do you get then the whole reason you're on the earth is to be found in His image and to pursue it by faith and become it by grace to put off the old and put on the new to die in the likeness of his death and die to everything he died for so you can raise in the newness of life and put new wine into a new wineskin and contain it go on this isn't riddles it's all Scripture one scripture after the other and if a man's alive on the earth that's because there's a time to be born but he's alive to be restored back to God's image and live by the spirit and walk out his life by fast yeah so you got to decide what you do with this gospel and it's nothing that's setting you up to go to heaven it's setting up heaven to come into you so you can walk in the light as he's in the light tomorrow we'll talk about how easy it is to become this way how easy it is to live this way and how that works by grace we'll teach a lot of stuff tomorrow we got doing two sessions 10 o'clock and okay we'll talk a little about that yeah okay good what he's talking about his equipping service going out in the mmunity see here's the deal when you're not self conscious you're not self conscious yay that means you don't have the fear of men you're not self-conscious right so that means you're more Kingdom minded and you see people before you see yourself it leads into a life that you begin to live when you take interest in others we'll talk about it tomorrow in the front end of that we'll talk about how to become this way we'll pray about that and we'll talk about equipping and how you can actually walk and live and touch and the things you can see in your life it's just amazing what God wants to do through us it's really amazing and humbling to give you discernment to give you foreknowledge to get talking with someone and actually all the sudden realize a turmoil they're going through a way they've been thinking and you speak it and they cry how did you know that and you smiled gently and say man Jesus knows everything he loves you so much look he lives in me he wants to live in you I could just tell you story after story after story like that why not being mean I'm not comparing me to you why cuz I don't have these shoes I'm not hung up I'm not caught up with what somebody said or did yeah it's not about who did wrong or right it's about yeah so I'm gonna pray over you guys please come back at the King tomorrow we're gonna do one more thing before we dismiss tonight it'll be a lot of fun so that's why I didn't want you to leave because the thing we're gonna do is going to be a lot of fun okay can you see how excited I am can you see I'm not nervous about it so you can lighten up to light though can I pray over you Father I thank you for tonight I think it's the honor a pastor Mac would let me come and mic up and just talk right here in the house he's been given to to pastor people in this pulpit I don't take it lightly I'll pray that the words that were spoken would seal in the heart of everyone that we would humbly realize there's there's nothing we preached tonight that we can't live by faith apart from any other factor a person in her life that every heart would take this word personal and and not sell it out and say yeah but and you don't know what I'm going through and you don't know what it's been like the last two months lord I pray that nothing would rob the raw truth of what you imparted and that you would convict every person's heart before you in that truth and draw us all to a place that looks more like you that no one would escape this thing that Lord God it would make us hunger and long to live by the spirit like no time in her lives teach us to love if there's unresolved conflicts smash it tonight Lord and the truth of your life and just dismantling in some to where they just like duh what was I even thinking and lord I thank you for that in the name of Jesus amen okay now here's what I wanted to ask you if we could do I feel good to do this I think we can do this in a timely manner as well I mean it's only twenty after eight we're doing good are we I mean this would be fun this would be fun here's what I want to do uh who believes that God can heal who believes that God is a healer okay good not everybody I mean a lot of people that don't believe God's a healer especially when you talk to them on the streets and that are usually the ones that go to church the ones that don't go to church don't really have an opinion but how about if we pray to the sick and maybe a way that's a little different in your expecting but would be very very helpful and very insightful would you be willing so if there's anybody in here that's not feeling well not doing well you'll participate and not be our guinea pigs right you'll just be the recipients of our love and faith because we're not testing anything faith isn't a point in time it's not something we're practicing something we believe and here's what we do in the midst of our situations in the midst of our challenges and struggles we believe he's good how do you believe he's good Dan when my life is filled with challenges we believe he's good cuz why we were yet sinners he sent his son he sent his son when we were lost we weren't getting it right we weren't even trying to get it right and the blood was shed and speaking better things that's a pretty good God right there he didn't require one change from you he said I'm gonna let my goodness bring the change I'm gonna believe the best love sees the best I ain't losing sight of what I made him to be and he sent his son why we were a mess people some of us knew truth and still didn't do truth some of us had a real understanding of what was right and still did wrong get real with me and God has never changed no man has ever changed who he is that's why he's still changing man tonight we're gonna pray for the sick when you pray for the sick you'll run into to sit you'll run into lots of sicknesses but two different things that I'm gonna explain here and ones not easier than the other and don't gravitate to one over the other some people you pray for they won't know if they're healed because it's a condition that comes and goes time needs to tell or they need to get a test it's something their blood it's something it's a migraine and it shows up maybe once every 810 days sometimes 11 sometimes eight but in that zone and then what happens after you've had one or two you get about at that 8-day zone you're looking over your shoulder and you're kind of like doing this knocking on wood and hoping tomorrow ain't and then you feel that thing coming and you know for about 36 hours you are incapacitated after about 4 months of that that takes a toll huh so you're in a grocery line you hear somebody said I'm just glad today wasn't the day I had a and use over here and you're just hearing who's ever heard people talking like this they just telling their stuff in open come on man here's what he's talking about activation you're standing in line you hear them saying that you ain't losing nothing watch this say you ain't losing nothing unless you don't do this and the number one reason people don't do this they're afraid nothing will happen but because they're afraid enough that'll happen they don't ever do this so guess what they always have the very thing they're afraid of it's kind of like not facing Goliath when he was already cut down and for 40 days you let him heckle you and you stay in your tent when he was already defeated 40 days he shouted down the armies of Israel and God was already ready to take him out it took a little boy named David to come and say what do you guys do and he's an uncircumcised Philistine well I'll go out there and they thought he was being a whippersnapper he just understood covenant he said man he's already gone the number one reason people don't pray for the sick in their own personal lives is because they're afraid nothing will happen [Music] let's deny yourself it's not turned face into a point in time let's let it be the position of our hearts yeah so you touch that person you tap them the worst they could do is say no and most of the time they don't actually you said listen man I couldn't help but to overhear what you said that has to be a terrible thing when that hits you like that you know it's come in and it's been coming regularly now for how many months that has to be a very trying oh it's awful man listen they're still paying up there we ain't there yet nobody's going to know I didn't make it seem listen man I've been just getting some understanding growing in some areas and getting convicted and some things here's the deal I'm a Christian man you just be honest I'm a Christian please don't say no this got my heart live man I will pray for you one way or the other but right now let me just pray for you and let lets believe together that this thing will never come back you step out you step out and say why would I believe that because God crucified his son cuz got crucified his son put him on a cross paid for the price of sin paid to redeem man I'm just gonna believe that by His stripes were healed the chastisement of our peace fell upon him yeah and you just say let's just believe and you make a statement let's believe this thing will never come back and wonder if they look at you say oh man I can't believe that I don't even believe that man I don't even go to church listen I ain't ask me to believe it or go to church list and you've moved my heart I know this has been a hard season for you you got nothing to lose friends the worst that can happen is nothing we already got that please let me pray with you don't say now they hardly ever say no when you talk to him like that you hardly ever say no I could hold you here and I know you believe me for hours and just tell you testimonies like that of real people that got touched and changed because you take a little bit of time and live outside yourself and live in him and believe he'll come I can't tell you how many times I was paying over a counter and said hey do you hey you got oh my goodness how'd you know that it's alright listen give me your hand it's gonna get way better you're gonna love this and they don't even know what you're doing they just kind of go like this they go give me your hand yeah just give me your hand they don't even know and you just take the side of their hand father I just thank you for your great love for him every pain you leave right now hips you be restored back you'd be completely whole and most of the time they go what did you just steal oh my gosh what no blank I've heard that what in the blank did you just do to me no it's not what I just did to you it's what somebody did for you a long time ago friend let me explain I can't even tell you how many times I've seen that in my life why because I put myself in that position you can there's two types of things you'll see you'll see people that won't know if they're healed you just have to believe by faith it's the same faith and there's people that would know if they were healed would you agree if you're in this room tonight right now if you're in this room right now and you have a condition in your body there's no way you'd be able to testify or say you were healed because it comes and goes or you need a test or you just need time to tell for whatever that condition reason that is but in the moment there's nothing symptomatic there's no loss of mobility no loss of hearing or sight there's nothing protruding there's no degeneration there's just no symptomatic thing that you could testify bit other than just faith in your heart you have a condition you understand I'm saying that's the first group so the second group will be what people that would now what do you say we go for this what do you say we just see what God does are you in with me you don't want to back out yet right it's too late you're not backing out we're gonna roll the best you can do is leave right now but don't leave if you have a situation that if it was healed there'd be no way to tell right now in the moment you need a test you need time I need you stand your feet if you can erase your hand please a condition that if you were healed you wouldn't be able to testify symptomatically you wouldn't know well I'll pray for you period you just wait there we're coming okay thank you stand your feet quick quick quick just a couple more I don't know why you're holding out stand up for me quick you have a condition that if it would change you wouldn't really know but it is a real condition and you want it to change yeah good I knew I had about three or four more and I think two stood I might need two yet thank you good I got three I'll take a bonus listen I'm listening why I'm serious about this I already have enough people to pray for but I was hearing there's just a couple more when I said that three more popped up in that awesome why because we're serious why would I feel like I'm getting an impression that there was a couple more because God wants us standing because this is real and something Goods gonna happen I do this every weekend teaching in the church and then you do it in your own life you add that up 23 years of Christianity it's a lot of fun yay y'all ready we're gonna pray for you if there's somebody standing near you just see if you could tap them and get their hand or something you don't have to go running all over just get right there near you just say hey I'm gonna hold your hand and agree when pastor prays just just make contact you don't have to run all over but just just grab somebody Sam make sure they know you're believing with them just say hey I'm gonna stand with you we're believing you're made whole now all I want you to do don't like try to pray real hard and amplify your voice and don't express the name of Jesus with intensity he doesn't even need that I just want you to be real simple and just say be whole in Jesus name believe he loves them and believe he paid a price through the cross and just say be whole in Jesus name Amen and if you're praying if you're being prayed for if you stood up all I want you to do is believe this one thing that he has to love me or he to never send his son this condition is no reflection on his lack of love his love is settled in my heart or he did never died on a cross Wow father loves me believe that he loves you faith working through love when loves in question faith can't even be you'll just be driven by needs for the rest of your life but when love is settled faith is found father we just thank you all through this room every condition change in Jesus name as the people are praying be whole I thank you people are being made whole all across this room I thank you you're strong and amazing loving hand is touching everywhere everywhere someone stood every situation you know it all God nothing eludes you touch every person in Jesus name and father we thank you for it just say it over and behold in the name of Jesus thank you father because you love them now if you're being prayed for just thank God he loves you there's nothing to symptomatically check anyway so just thank God he loves you that you believe this condition has changed that times gonna prove it a test is going to prove it that you're gonna come to realize wow and that night I stood by simple faith God touched my body amen amen amen that's good that's good let's let's break that up grab your seats quick we're gonna do the second half and it's gonna be so much fun if you can stay please stay this is I mean this is the funnest time it is okay y'all ready so who's our next group these guys are so good I'm just letting them go I didn't even stop them I never let people play music when we do this that's how much favor you're getting I don't you know why I do it on purpose because I don't want to create atmosphere because we're so emotional we're so sensual you don't have that miss fear in Walmart's parking lot you just have you Jesus and the person in front of you and your feelings and sometimes we don't deal with them well sometimes we're waiting to hear yes and we already have yes go ye therefore we're looking for a yes because our apprehension we think is a No he's already telling you to go whatever city you're in what city whatever heal the sick there what sick bah [Laughter] come on John sexy stirred the water whoever stepped in first was healed of whatever that's the gospel whoever whatever yay here's what bothers us here's what stumbles us not everybody we've prayed for we've seen healed and changed what we're all growing in the truth that stopped changing what we believe based on what we experienced let's find what we believe through him so we have something to build on and grow into we keep changing our theology through our own experiences the words already written jesus said when you see me you see the will of the Father when you see me you see him he didn't say when your loved one dies you see him hello and everybody in this room knows that as Jesus walked into that situation and touched your loved one we all know what would happen I don't care what denomination you are across the land it is a no-brainer don't even have to think to answer but he is in us and the Christ in us is the hope of glory and were to teach and train in the knowledge of him so we're not tossed to and fro by every wind and feeling fleeting emotion and doctrine so he can grow up into him in all things to the full measure of the stature of Christ come on I'm preaching the gospel to you and I am done well I never was there anyway but but I'm done getting tossed to and front done believe in what I'm experiencing over what he says I'm done with all the yell well then how come but what and all the anger and frustration and the pain and the loss I did the funeral of my own mother don't tell me I don't understand I'm not being insensitive I've held children in my arms that they said had to die and I did their funerals but I held children in my arms they said had to die and they're still alive today so I ain't I ain't seen enough yet but I seem too much to change my mind yeah I'm going after it and I ain't backing down I ain't letting common knowledge and human reasoning change me I'm not letting my mother passing rewrite the book I'm going after him all the more somebody else's mama doesn't pass and I'm not gonna live offended cuz I love not my own life unto death if it wasn't for him I wouldn't have had a mama if it wasn't for him I wouldn't be here he is the Lord he is not questioned through my mother he is settled through his son he trim all and that's just humbling but it ought to Humble us if you're sick in your body you need healing in your body and if you were healed tonight you would absolutely know it that you'd be able to check without exaggeration without trying to make the person that prayed for you feel good that would be called lying but if you were healed you would absolutely know it tonight I need you to stand your feet if you have a situation in your body we're coming to you I know you're sitting there and we're gonna pray for you I need you stand your feet all over this place if you've out in your heart to never do this again because you were done this 10 times then never we're healed please stand up for sure yeah come on come on I'm waiting on you just stand your feet don't make me go fishing I'm actually a very good fisherman I shouldn't need to have to go fishing we should just stand up in raw faith and say you know what I'm trusting the goodness of the Lord you're sick in your body and if you were healed tonight you would know it you have symptoms in your body that if Jesus would touch you you would be able to tell because they would change I need you to stand up I'm still waiting because I still have a few more come on I got I got eight I got eight people I thought it was seven but I'm sure I heard eight you have arthritis symptoms in your body right now stiffness pain immobility and you're still sitting in your chair and I heard eight I need you to stand to your feet I'm telling you God's serious stand to your feet you you're it's in your knees see hip something main right when you're going up the stairs when you're coming down it's hurtin there's things in your hands you're stiff when you work a little bit you don't have the mobility there's arthritis symptoms I heard eight people who who stood up when I said that let me see your hands so I can count my eight one two three who stood up when I said that I need to count my hands one two three four five six I need two more please I know when I hear numbers I'm just telling young I've clearer on numbers am I missing somebody seven did I miss somebody that you didn't see your hand eight I need I thought I heard seven but then it shifted to eight I'm sure it's eight did we got you you weren't counted originally you just stood up thank you oh that's good so you're my number eight good [Music] thank you [Music] you don't relate to start fright us you still sitting it's one person you've lost strength you're a woman you've lost strength in your hands in your grip and you didn't stand up your grips not the same is that you guess what's gonna happen to you when they pray no look at me guess what's going to happen to you when they pray your grip is restored I'm telling you you watch and see God did not pull you out of the seat just to expose that you're sitting he means business he's our Father I got plenty of people to pray for we could already have done this thing but it's real and I'm waiting and I'm listening cuz I know sometimes people just stay sitting for whatever reason and God just needs to nudge them forward so I'm standing here and I'm listening I see no strength in the hands you don't have the same grip and you're asking yourself what's wrong with me something's not right I'm different and I heard it was a woman she jumped right to her feet I told you I'm a good fisherman but don't make me fish just stand up if you're still sitting please stand up please stand up if you if you have a condition in your body [Music] okay I got one more thing and I'm gonna probably well unless God deserves it it's your right ankle it hurts you all the time when you walk you're still sitting in your chair your right ankle it's your ankle and it's your right one who are you stand to your feet it just came to me crystal clear did I get you wave your hand when I got you when you stand up it's your right ankle it's not your left it's your right it bothers you when you walk it bothers you especially in the morning but you feel it you can always feel stairs are a trouble I know when I'm hearing this stuff I don't know why you wouldn't stand your ankle your right ankle it's your right leg does it hit your ankle does it affect your ankle okay good thank you for standing so you would say it's even up into your leg as well but it's your ankle an issue because I was here an ankle is your ankle right here right ankle okay specifically ankle I know you got other stuff but the ankle is trouble I'm seeing the ankle be in trouble okay thanks for standing now we're got to - okay I'm not fishing anymore here's what we're going to do so we got our people standing okay ah okay you have you've been told by doctor you have degenerative knees and they grind a little bit and they bother you you can feel them grind and they hurt a little it's kind of degenerating it's getting to be bone on bone I need you to stand up I'm actually hearing there's three of you degenerate knees you've been told by a doctor you good thank you where's my third one I heard three crystal clear did I get her oh you degenerate knees you think I don't hear numbers listen he's our father he will speak to you clear as can be the more you get free from yourself the clearer you'll hear the more you get free from yourself the more you value others God told me a long time ago Dan I can tell myself anything he said when you become one with my heart you're in if my motives pure the pure in heart shall see God yay you see what's wrong with me I have a relationship with all-mighty God it give me little insights little informations and you know what he's gonna do he's gonna come in this room and do what he does in a minute and then nothing nobody can do about it and it just makes me happy okay so we're gonna trust him now here's what here's what I didn't tell you the people sitting you're my prayer team and it's on purpose here's what I need you to do the people stand in one hand we're not worshipping right now we're just being identified the people that are being prayed for we lift the hand so everybody knows who you are when we stand up we don't want to lose you in the crowd okay people not somebody you know through and through not your spouse go find somebody I want everybody claimed at least one-on-one just one-on-one where somebody takes the lead as soon as they claim you don't pray yet don't pray just go say hey you're mine just have fun with them you want to really have fun say hey I never did this before and smile okay are you gonna believe for them then when we do this you go pray for him okay when they when they claim you put your hand down put your hand down I wanted only want your hand up if nobody has you yet so we should have everybody quickly right good I'm gonna get up here so I can see come up here and see what it feels like to be on the worship team yeah okay somebody believe him for his knees up there in the booth you guys got it covered in Jesus yeah well I'll tell you what if you do Jesus as good as you're doing sound his knees are in big - well I guess blessing hey man okay here's the deal don't pray yet you don't have to pray yet we're gonna do this as a family now listen it'd be one thing if I line you all up and flow in my gifting and do all the stuff I could do in the Holy Ghost now it would actually be fun it would be fun for me but it wouldn't necessarily empower you this is all about empowering you this is about getting you ready for equipping getting you ready to just live this way I want to show you how easy this can be to just believe God we're not turning faith into a point in time faith is the position of our heart we believe he's good we believe he loves people we believe he shed his blood on the cross to make people whole we believe his finished work is enough amen it's not our prayer listen this is liberating your prayer has never healed never will heal anybody it's just finished work so let's not be self-conscious when we pray here's what we do when we pray we try to pray hard right powerful and we get self-conscious as soon as we start pray and we try to pray better prayers instead of believe truth so I'm just liberating you tonight you don't have to pray no better prayer what be healed in Jesus name's probably going to be plenty if it's backed by a revelation that we're talking about you with me so here's the deal take three seconds just three seconds the person that stood tell the person or the people praying for you three seconds short version why you stood up and what you're believing for just an overall general condition what you're believing for you don't have to go into a long thing I know if you have a list just just generalize it three seconds you should know y'all there are you all ready okay look here don't pray yet you guys are ready to roll I got to slow you down hold up don't know praying yet now here's the deal we're gonna pray here in a second I'm gonna give you about six eight seconds to pray and I'll stop you you say why because I don't want you self-conscious and I want you getting in trouble I don't want you trying to pray right and trying to pray hard that's once you believe in simple truth if Jesus said letter if God the Father in the beginning said let there be light and there was light we'd probably don't have to pray pray pray pray it's tried enough the length of our words it's what we believe that releases the kingdom are you hearing me so if somebody told if they were one of my people I had to stand up and they said my knees would you generator I had off I have arthritis symptoms watch six seconds arthritis you leave their body in the authority of Jesus name no more pain no more stiffness father Thank You total mobility Jesus name cuz you love them father who knows you can do that in six to eight seconds needs you be completely hold no more degeneration no more grinding complete restoration of cartilage Father thank you for brand-new knees Jesus name cuz you level who knows you can do that in six to eight seconds and actually believe the God's good and he paid a price to do that are you all ready so see you don't have to produce anything you have to believe would already was produced are you with me we're gonna pray for about six eight seconds I'm gonna say okay wind it up when I say wind it up obviously you pray in Jesus name cuz he's the finished work I always encourage people to acknowledge God's love because I think it's lacking in most people's lives the revelation that he loves them okay that's your call but in Jesus name father thank you for your love then what I want you to do without any exaggeration that's why I usually don't have music writing and they can play here in a minute you guys can play listen how they just shut down just I usually make the room as dry as I can before we pray people that go to supernatural schools are like I say is this real dry they're like yeah brother so we're used to what about just believing him what about being in a room where nobody knows him but you know him and you just speak up and pray yeah and ain't like having these guys behind job promised but when you got him in you that's all you need so here's what we're gonna do we're gonna pray I'm gonna say wrap it up when you wrap it up here's what I want with no exaggeration I want you to check your bodies check those symptoms check your bodies okay when you know you're healed when you know I don't want exaggeration I want you to look at one of them young ladies that prayed for you and she's like you feel better I don't want you lying justify well I'll just tell her yes by faith yes feeling really good stop I want you to check your body and when you know you're healed and you're doing something you would have protected yourself from or you wouldn't have done before that's what I want you to let us know if you had a torn rotator cuff and this was your limit and now you're going like this and I want you to let us know okay if nothing seems to change in your body don't you disconnect you stand here and listen to a few testimonies you thank God he's a healer as you listen and you keep checking your body and watch what happens in this room are you with me are you all ready you remember what you're praying for simplify look at him make him uncomfortable before you pray that Jesus loves them that they're special that he just would die on the cross for him is amazing right are you ready 6 to 8 seconds of simple faith believing faith because he loves them and he paid a price go ahead pray for that condition right now if you're being prayed for just believe God loves you that's all you'll want you to do that's all I want you to do believe he loves you yep pray right now specific thank you God okay wine death down wine death down in Jesus name and thank God that He loves them now if you were prayed for just thank God before even check your body just thank God that he loves you you believe he loves you now begin to check your bodies for me all over this room really really check them I don't want

it's their person if it's your person go grab them say hey we're doing this one more time just one more time go grab them no seriously now here's what I want you to know I talk about this because it's the thing we don't talk about we always talk about what happened and then people leave and nothing seemed to happen in their minds usually go wonderful doing something wrong wonder why I wasn't healed wonder why there's a couple people they sure seem sincere I believe that happened and wonder why it doesn't happen for me something must be block of it'll stop stop stop Christians have one response faith is not a point in time it's a position of your heart you have one response father you are so good you're doing a work in me and I rejoice and thank you for what you're doing in my life and my body period that's how you leave here period but here's what we're going to do we got like ten people we're gonna pray six more seconds I'm gonna believe that some things change even though they didn't change up until now would you believe that with me that would just encourage their hearts and will realize that hey if you want a hard stone to break and you got a sledgehammer guess what you do you just hit that thing hit that thing and you're saying be healed be made whole arthritis you leave pain you go right six seconds go ahead and that's watch and see what changes in this room we got

whole time somewhat or all the way okay what about the actual symptom or the the thing that was wrong is it still there at all is it better or where you okay and nothing up until now okay anybody else changed even somewhat or all the way and nothing the first time changed just got better no that's okay yeah you couldn't do that did that just happen the last time they prayed so right up until then you still couldn't do that and just then that just happened right there that's so beautiful guys if we draw conclusions through results and create theology through results we're going to miss truth that makes people free this is all Jesus trying to teach us because here's what we do well they didn't get healed mustn't be there time wasn't be God's will maybe we did something wrong maybe they need to be in faith and we cope with all these reasons instead of just going after what we believe he paid for him what's possible so here's a woman standing here all this time all this teaching all these testimonies and nothing's changed and the very last time she's smiling on that just happened now how sweet is that so is that a different experience for you ma'am that's you couldn't do that they couldn't even touch and you're making a full-blown fist she couldn't even bring her fingers together guys ah and it's a full-blown fist with no problem look how long were your hands impaired like that from stiffness and pain years now are we hyping this are we making this up don't ever get numb to this don't get dull to this she wants just her hand yep - it's your hand who else you know you

more burning in your heart to give you more hunger more revelation you just talk to him a little bit just just don't be afraid to ask him to come like we sang and awaken things in you just ask him that you might know him more than that who he is is more relevant in the expression of your life would you begin to ask him that this love thing we talked about would just be your expression that it would actually just come natural in your relationship with God that you would actually begin to live unoffending all that should be unshakable unmovable just like the Bible says that you'd be rooted and grounded in love father I thank you for a people I thank you for a people that you're doing a work in I thank you God you show to see denied you watered seed you're the God of increase and

the now the mouths of two or more you're establishing your truth but we lift our hands to you and we yield to you and we say yes the best we understand yes and have your way your grace is sufficient for us and we believe it but most of all tonight we say yes to becoming love and living what you paid for and father I ask you to teach us let our heart stay engaged and let no one in this room turn any other way I pray you mark us this night with a yes in Jesus name Amen amen we love you do you want clothes who say anything or would you just dismiss what time tomorrow if you want to come 10:00
