1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.060
you

2
00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:53.000
Okay.

3
00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:58.000
It looks like I am.

4
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:13.000
Okay.

5
00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:16.000
Okay.

6
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:23.000
Oh my goodness. Okay. Well, it is at the top of the hour.

7
00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:33.000
I want to God, I want to say God bless you to all of you that have tuned in for the last day. Hey, we started on Monday.

8
00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:36.000
The challenge.

9
00:01:36.000 --> 00:01:39.000
What was it what was it called.

10
00:01:39.000 --> 00:02:03.000
It was called unveiling the while the woman of challenge we started on Monday, right. And now it is Friday, this is the last day. The last day. And for those of you that were here, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and again today, I want to thank you for,

11
00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:24.000
for, for completing this quest with me, and I hope my prayer is that something was shared that blessed you something was shared that will sit with you, and we'll be into to grow within you so that you could be all that God has called you to be, because

12
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:33.000
that's the point of this right to become that woman of worth. Wow. So,

13
00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:42.000
I want to pray to get us into this today. This is our last day. So, Father.

14
00:02:42.000 --> 00:03:04.000
In the name of Jesus Christ, I want to just lift up to you, every woman, every person father that is listening to, to this, this time father listening to listening to the sound of my voice father that you're able to bless them, you're able to grab hold of their

15
00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:27.000
hearts so tenderly as you as you own as only you can, and allow them to see your heart like never before. And Father, I thank you that as they begin their own personal quest to unveil you in deeper and more intimate ways father that you will be able to unveil them

16
00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:48.000
more of who they can be come, because you got our father that hat that is worth more than anything else. You are a father that cares deeper for his children than any father on the planet.

17
00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:57.000
You are a father that has given much

18
00:03:57.000 --> 00:04:02.000
that has given much. So I lift that father.

19
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:10.000
And I thank you for it in the name of the living Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I don't know why my wife was to call me she's right downstairs.

20
00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:14.000
So,

21
00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:22.000
I'm supposed to stop and go run it down and ask you what, what's up, what are you doing in the middle of prayer. On top of that,

22
00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:27.000
beat it, what.

23
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:31.000
Okay, well then don't worry about it just now. I'm live.

24
00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:34.000
I'm live right now.

25
00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:39.000
Okay, I'm live right now.

26
00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:45.000
Okay.

27
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:48.000
Well, hey,

28
00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:52.000
I guess this is what they call it live TV.

29
00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:58.000
Oh my god. Call me twice.

30
00:04:58.000 --> 00:04:59.000
Oh gosh.

31
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:05.520
do is either turn my phone off or I think I just turn on that I'm definitely

32
00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:14.240
to undisturbed, that I am to be not disturbed. I guess that's the only thing I can do now.

33
00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:21.360
Oh my goodness, not disturbed. Where's my not disturbed? Can't even find you.

34
00:05:23.200 --> 00:05:24.720
And do not disturb.

35
00:05:24.720 --> 00:05:37.040
Wow, now I think we're ready to rock and roll. I am sorry for that. I really am. So

36
00:05:39.200 --> 00:05:46.400
this is day five. This is the end. And what I want to do in this session here is, hey, look,

37
00:05:46.400 --> 00:05:55.840
yesterday we talked about dressing up, getting all dolled up, being adorned in the renewed mind.

38
00:05:55.840 --> 00:06:04.320
Now, I have some things there that, you know, I have never seen before. And I believe that it

39
00:06:04.320 --> 00:06:11.440
was God that downloaded it. And hey, look, I am not a theologian. So, so look at it from the

40
00:06:11.440 --> 00:06:17.920
standpoint that this is what I'm seeing. We are going into this thing live. We're going into this

41
00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:24.480
thing as a quest. I am not saying that any of these things right now, you know, is a, it's the

42
00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:29.360
all and end all. That's not what I'm saying. But what I'm trying to do is to show you a father's

43
00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:38.000
heart in order to, to speak things, to speak things into existence in your life that you may never

44
00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:44.400
even considered or heard of. Now, if 15 years down the road, you find out there's something

45
00:06:44.400 --> 00:06:49.120
that I said, that's okay. Because 15 years, you are not the same person as you are today.

46
00:06:50.000 --> 00:07:00.400
How about that? Okay. So here we go. The woman of worth, I guess if I had to call this something,

47
00:07:00.400 --> 00:07:11.680
this would be, wow. Let's put a crown on that. Because that's my heart right now. This is my heart.

48
00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:22.000
Because, hey, what, look, we are a part of a kingdom. That's the best way that I could put it.

49
00:07:22.000 --> 00:07:31.200
We are a part of a kingdom and you and I are our sons and daughters of the king. Okay. We're also

50
00:07:31.760 --> 00:07:42.480
citizens in the kingdom. And we're also servants in the kingdom. Wow. And each one of them has a

51
00:07:42.480 --> 00:07:49.840
role, but you can't just be a son or daughter in the kingdom, a child in the kingdom, child of the

52
00:07:49.840 --> 00:07:54.560
king and not become just spoiled because you think that, hey, you can get away with anything.

53
00:07:54.560 --> 00:08:01.120
And that's not what God is after. Okay. That is not what God is after. You can also go to the other

54
00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:07.120
end and say, I am a servant. I just want to serve. I want to serve. I want to serve. I want to serve.

55
00:08:07.120 --> 00:08:14.880
And you know what? It ends up being not good anyway, because you can't just serve because

56
00:08:14.880 --> 00:08:23.760
you're more than a servant. And it's the same way. Each one of these has a part that is not good.

57
00:08:23.760 --> 00:08:31.600
And if you are as a citizen within the kingdom and that's the only thing you want, then you know

58
00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:39.120
what you end up being, becoming legalistic. So you got a son and a daughter. You have

59
00:08:39.840 --> 00:08:45.200
a child of the king who can be spoiled, but he also could do things right.

60
00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:53.360
You have a citizen within the kingdom that can be, hey, I know my rights and I'm going to stick

61
00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:59.360
on it and become very legalistic. Or you can be the servant. And that means you're just going

62
00:08:59.360 --> 00:09:07.280
through your religious duty. And neither one of those in and of themselves is going to be fulfilling

63
00:09:07.280 --> 00:09:13.600
because what God wants from his children is to be able to flow through each and every one of those.

64
00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:24.400
Does that make sense? Because, hey, I am a child of the king, but I'm also a servant of the king.

65
00:09:24.400 --> 00:09:30.560
So when God says move, I don't say, why? I don't understand it.

66
00:09:30.880 --> 00:09:40.800
No, you just do because out of love. Look, doesn't the Bible say that God so loved the world that he

67
00:09:40.800 --> 00:09:48.320
gave his only begotten son. And then the Bible turns right around and says, we love you because

68
00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:57.040
you first loved us. So all we're doing is what we do for God is not coming from a place of just

69
00:09:57.040 --> 00:09:59.840
a place of just service. It's coming from a place of

70
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:01.040
love.

71
00:10:01.040 --> 00:10:05.280
And the same is true when I decide that, hey,

72
00:10:05.280 --> 00:10:08.680
God has given me certain rights as a member

73
00:10:08.680 --> 00:10:12.200
within this as a citizen of the kingdom.

74
00:10:12.200 --> 00:10:15.360
But that doesn't mean that I got to hold myself strictly

75
00:10:15.360 --> 00:10:20.320
to those things because I'm also a son, a daughter,

76
00:10:20.320 --> 00:10:24.000
a child of the same king.

77
00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:30.280
So we have to learn to move and to groove in those areas.

78
00:10:30.280 --> 00:10:34.040
And as we do that, you know what?

79
00:10:34.040 --> 00:10:36.800
You know that you are a child of the king.

80
00:10:36.800 --> 00:10:40.080
You know that you have certain rights as a citizen.

81
00:10:40.080 --> 00:10:43.400
And you know that I can serve when needed.

82
00:10:43.400 --> 00:10:46.600
I can do the things that God wants me to do.

83
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:48.320
And it's all out of love.

84
00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:49.480
See the difference?

85
00:10:49.480 --> 00:10:52.200
It's a different concept.

86
00:10:52.200 --> 00:10:54.760
It's a different way of looking at it.

87
00:10:54.760 --> 00:10:56.600
Whoo, I think that's awesome.

88
00:10:56.600 --> 00:10:58.320
Man, oh, man, oh, man.

89
00:10:58.320 --> 00:11:03.600
So does the word wow give you a nice good and goosey

90
00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:05.600
tingling feeling?

91
00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:06.280
Does it?

92
00:11:06.280 --> 00:11:10.120
Because it does for me when I go, oh, wow,

93
00:11:10.120 --> 00:11:14.200
now I'm seeing this woman of worth

94
00:11:14.200 --> 00:11:19.560
like I've never been able to see her before.

95
00:11:19.560 --> 00:11:20.400
My goodness.

96
00:11:20.400 --> 00:11:24.800
So I hope you, as a woman, how do you

97
00:11:24.800 --> 00:11:27.680
see yourself at this point?

98
00:11:27.680 --> 00:11:31.600
Day five, with all the things that we've handled in here,

99
00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:36.560
do you see that you are worth something more

100
00:11:36.560 --> 00:11:38.600
than you've ever had before?

101
00:11:38.600 --> 00:11:40.440
Wow, wow, wow, wow.

102
00:11:40.440 --> 00:11:42.760
Because the whole point is that God intended

103
00:11:42.760 --> 00:11:48.680
you to look into a mirror and see what he created.

104
00:11:48.680 --> 00:11:54.400
Not every wrinkle, every gray hair, everything that is wrong.

105
00:11:54.400 --> 00:11:56.640
Because if that's what you're looking for,

106
00:11:56.640 --> 00:12:01.200
if that's what you're looking for and that's all you see,

107
00:12:01.200 --> 00:12:07.280
then when do you see the worth, the Christ in you?

108
00:12:07.280 --> 00:12:11.640
When do you see what God has called you into

109
00:12:11.640 --> 00:12:15.240
and what he's called you up to?

110
00:12:15.320 --> 00:12:16.320
Woo.

111
00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:18.120
Ha, ha, ha, ha.

112
00:12:18.120 --> 00:12:19.640
Come on.

113
00:12:19.640 --> 00:12:20.440
Come on.

114
00:12:20.440 --> 00:12:23.760
Do you see what this is all about?

115
00:12:23.760 --> 00:12:26.560
Oh, my gosh.

116
00:12:26.560 --> 00:12:30.640
Now, as for me, I'm a man.

117
00:12:30.640 --> 00:12:35.120
I also want to present myself as a father that

118
00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:37.240
can speak into your life.

119
00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:41.840
That means that I have to see you as a daughter

120
00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:48.320
and call forth those things that God put in you to give you

121
00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:50.840
your identity and your destiny.

122
00:12:50.840 --> 00:12:53.800
Oh, my gosh.

123
00:12:53.800 --> 00:12:59.840
And sometimes, hey, when that happens, when that happens

124
00:12:59.840 --> 00:13:01.760
and it happens right, you will make

125
00:13:01.760 --> 00:13:07.160
Zena, the warrior princess, look like a two-year-old.

126
00:13:07.160 --> 00:13:08.760
Plain dress up.

127
00:13:08.760 --> 00:13:10.840
La, la, la.

128
00:13:10.840 --> 00:13:14.160
You'll be walking in power the way God intended.

129
00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:23.080
Because you see, a father is to give protection.

130
00:13:23.080 --> 00:13:30.240
A father is to be a defender of his children.

131
00:13:30.240 --> 00:13:38.400
A father gives identity and a father speaks into your destiny.

132
00:13:38.400 --> 00:13:40.920
Oh, my gosh.

133
00:13:40.920 --> 00:13:43.400
And you know what I saw in there?

134
00:13:43.400 --> 00:13:48.560
Remember yesterday when we talked about Dunamis, Energia,

135
00:13:48.560 --> 00:13:55.520
Iskus, and Kratos, the four Greek words.

136
00:13:55.520 --> 00:13:56.640
I didn't say Swedish words.

137
00:13:56.640 --> 00:13:59.080
The four Greek words for power.

138
00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:02.680
And I call it power to the fourth.

139
00:14:02.680 --> 00:14:06.000
I'm sorry, Star Wars, but God came up with it first.

140
00:14:06.760 --> 00:14:09.000
Woo.

141
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:11.000
Did you know protection is like Dunamis?

142
00:14:13.880 --> 00:14:17.320
To defend is Energia.

143
00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:21.440
Give identity is like Iskus.

144
00:14:21.440 --> 00:14:26.760
Speaking destiny is Kratos.

145
00:14:26.760 --> 00:14:28.120
I like Kratos.

146
00:14:28.120 --> 00:14:30.280
You know, I really do.

147
00:14:30.280 --> 00:14:34.760
Man, but how does a father today speak

148
00:14:34.760 --> 00:14:39.680
into the life of his daughter and call forth

149
00:14:39.680 --> 00:14:42.840
those deep things that the creator, God,

150
00:14:42.840 --> 00:14:47.840
the creator father has laid deep within her

151
00:14:47.840 --> 00:14:55.960
so that they come forth like a plant that is ready to bloom

152
00:14:55.960 --> 00:15:00.960
and to blossom, waiting for the sunshine.

153
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:04.580
out of his presence to wrap around it and to help it grow.

154
00:15:04.580 --> 00:15:09.220
That's what we are supposed to do as fathers.

155
00:15:09.220 --> 00:15:12.460
And women, you have to get to the place

156
00:15:12.460 --> 00:15:14.880
of finding that one person.

157
00:15:14.880 --> 00:15:18.240
If you don't have a dad that is able to do that,

158
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:24.460
there are godly men out there who'd

159
00:15:24.460 --> 00:15:28.300
be willing to speak into your life

160
00:15:28.300 --> 00:15:32.140
and call forth those things that God

161
00:15:32.140 --> 00:15:34.860
has laid deep within you.

162
00:15:34.860 --> 00:15:38.340
And there's no use, usage.

163
00:15:38.340 --> 00:15:41.260
There's no manipulation in it.

164
00:15:41.260 --> 00:15:47.100
And if you sense it, just get out of dodge.

165
00:15:47.100 --> 00:15:48.580
Find someone else.

166
00:15:48.580 --> 00:15:53.060
Don't allow something or the enemy to tame it.

167
00:15:53.060 --> 00:16:00.620
Remember that the enemy has laden within you what?

168
00:16:00.620 --> 00:16:04.820
A base of operation that I hope that by now I've

169
00:16:04.820 --> 00:16:07.540
given you clues, detailed things,

170
00:16:07.540 --> 00:16:11.300
to help you blow that sucker up so that you no longer

171
00:16:11.300 --> 00:16:17.020
have to kowtow to the orphan that is hiding within.

172
00:16:17.020 --> 00:16:18.300
My goodness.

173
00:16:18.300 --> 00:16:22.660
Remember, no question, no what?

174
00:16:22.740 --> 00:16:24.860
No quest.

175
00:16:24.860 --> 00:16:32.060
So are you asking the question, is there more to me

176
00:16:32.060 --> 00:16:36.660
than I have ever seen or heard before?

177
00:16:36.660 --> 00:16:42.740
If so, then the quest is about to begin for you.

178
00:16:42.740 --> 00:16:43.700
My gosh.

179
00:16:43.700 --> 00:16:47.100
I've tried to lay out crumbs along the way,

180
00:16:47.100 --> 00:16:52.380
things that God has shown me, things that you now

181
00:16:52.380 --> 00:16:56.420
should be able to walk and begin to pinpoint those things

182
00:16:56.420 --> 00:17:02.020
and see for yourself where you can go and what you can do.

183
00:17:02.020 --> 00:17:02.980
Hey, look.

184
00:17:02.980 --> 00:17:06.380
I'm going to share with you my life verse.

185
00:17:06.380 --> 00:17:11.140
Go to Proverbs chapter 4.

186
00:17:11.140 --> 00:17:12.420
Proverbs chapter 4.

187
00:17:15.420 --> 00:17:20.540
Oh, I love this verse because you know what?

188
00:17:20.579 --> 00:17:23.900
I didn't know that it was translated this way.

189
00:17:23.900 --> 00:17:25.140
I really didn't.

190
00:17:25.140 --> 00:17:27.300
And this is one of the things that I'm

191
00:17:27.300 --> 00:17:29.780
thankful for in the Passion Translation

192
00:17:29.780 --> 00:17:34.620
because there were things that just speak to me in such a way

193
00:17:34.620 --> 00:17:35.860
that just blows me away.

194
00:17:35.860 --> 00:17:37.780
And this is one of those verses.

195
00:17:37.780 --> 00:17:39.860
When it said it, my heart lit.

196
00:17:39.860 --> 00:17:45.380
When I read it for the very first time, my heart lit.

197
00:17:45.380 --> 00:17:48.620
I mean, you talk about dancing around the room.

198
00:17:48.660 --> 00:17:50.700
That's what my heart was doing.

199
00:17:50.700 --> 00:17:51.700
Here we go.

200
00:17:51.700 --> 00:17:55.140
Proverbs chapter 4, starting in verse 4.

201
00:17:55.140 --> 00:17:58.100
And we're going to read two verses, OK?

202
00:17:58.100 --> 00:18:00.700
And it is in verse 4.

203
00:18:00.700 --> 00:18:06.420
Then my father taught me, saying, never forget my words.

204
00:18:06.420 --> 00:18:10.980
If you do everything that I teach you,

205
00:18:10.980 --> 00:18:14.940
you will reign in life.

206
00:18:14.940 --> 00:18:18.180
Oh my gosh.

207
00:18:18.220 --> 00:18:27.060
If you do everything I teach you, you know what that sounds?

208
00:18:27.060 --> 00:18:31.180
That you can't argue with the teacher

209
00:18:31.180 --> 00:18:35.100
because the teacher knows what he's talking about.

210
00:18:35.100 --> 00:18:36.580
Especially this teacher.

211
00:18:36.580 --> 00:18:40.180
If God is teaching you something,

212
00:18:40.180 --> 00:18:42.340
then we have to be teachable.

213
00:18:42.340 --> 00:18:47.940
We have to be humble enough to see that God knows best.

214
00:18:47.940 --> 00:18:49.420
Daddy knows best.

215
00:18:49.420 --> 00:18:51.020
Hey, I just dated myself.

216
00:18:51.020 --> 00:18:52.700
I hope y'all didn't catch that.

217
00:18:52.700 --> 00:18:55.540
You know, there was a TV show when I was a kid called

218
00:18:55.540 --> 00:18:59.020
Daddy Knows Best.

219
00:18:59.020 --> 00:19:01.220
Or My Three Sons, where the father always

220
00:19:01.220 --> 00:19:03.900
knew what was right.

221
00:19:03.900 --> 00:19:05.900
So do you get that?

222
00:19:05.900 --> 00:19:08.820
So you have to be teachable.

223
00:19:08.820 --> 00:19:09.940
My gosh.

224
00:19:09.940 --> 00:19:13.980
So make wisdom, chap, verse 5.

225
00:19:14.020 --> 00:19:16.540
Make wisdom your what?

226
00:19:16.540 --> 00:19:17.040
Quest.

227
00:19:19.740 --> 00:19:22.900
Make wisdom your quest.

228
00:19:22.900 --> 00:19:27.380
Search for the revelation life's meaning.

229
00:19:27.380 --> 00:19:33.700
Don't let what I say go in one ear and out the other.

230
00:19:36.420 --> 00:19:38.300
Do you love that?

231
00:19:38.300 --> 00:19:39.660
Do you love that?

232
00:19:39.660 --> 00:19:40.580
Do you get that?

233
00:19:40.580 --> 00:19:43.100
Because you know what?

234
00:19:43.140 --> 00:19:47.140
This really blows up comparison right out of the water.

235
00:19:47.140 --> 00:19:50.100
Because revelation life's meaning

236
00:19:50.100 --> 00:19:54.100
is going to be different for you than for me.

237
00:19:54.100 --> 00:19:55.860
The principle remains the same.

238
00:19:55.860 --> 00:19:58.420
It is a life meaning.

239
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:04.120
What you get out of that life meaning may not work for me,

240
00:20:05.520 --> 00:20:08.320
but the principle is the same.

241
00:20:09.600 --> 00:20:11.000
You understand that?

242
00:20:11.000 --> 00:20:14.800
So you can't compare your life with someone else

243
00:20:14.800 --> 00:20:16.260
because they're not you.

244
00:20:17.400 --> 00:20:18.700
Doesn't that make sense?

245
00:20:19.840 --> 00:20:22.280
I just think that just blows a lot of things

246
00:20:22.280 --> 00:20:23.880
right out of the water.

247
00:20:23.880 --> 00:20:25.440
I think so.

248
00:20:25.440 --> 00:20:26.800
My goodness.

249
00:20:27.760 --> 00:20:31.720
Oh, one thing the father requested

250
00:20:31.720 --> 00:20:36.140
was that we never forget his word.

251
00:20:37.520 --> 00:20:39.120
Wow, if you think about that,

252
00:20:39.120 --> 00:20:42.920
his word according to scripture is life.

253
00:20:42.920 --> 00:20:47.920
In Timothy it says that all scripture is what?

254
00:20:48.240 --> 00:20:49.720
God breathed.

255
00:20:54.440 --> 00:20:56.160
Oh, I just love that.

256
00:20:56.160 --> 00:21:00.640
It's God breathed, it is life in itself.

257
00:21:00.640 --> 00:21:05.120
That's why when God spoke the universe into existence,

258
00:21:05.120 --> 00:21:08.240
even scientists today finally realized

259
00:21:09.760 --> 00:21:14.760
that the whole universe is still continuing to grow.

260
00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:16.800
Oh my gosh.

261
00:21:16.800 --> 00:21:20.320
So what does that say about you?

262
00:21:20.320 --> 00:21:23.340
Do you think that there are things latent within you

263
00:21:23.340 --> 00:21:26.780
that God is calling up so that you can continue

264
00:21:26.780 --> 00:21:30.960
to grow into what he's already seen you to be

265
00:21:30.960 --> 00:21:31.800
down the road?

266
00:21:33.460 --> 00:21:34.380
Oh my goodness.

267
00:21:34.380 --> 00:21:35.580
Oh, this is awesome.

268
00:21:38.740 --> 00:21:43.740
Hey, let's go to Psalm chapter 103,

269
00:21:44.020 --> 00:21:47.020
starting in verse one, okay?

270
00:21:47.020 --> 00:21:48.620
And it reads,

271
00:21:48.660 --> 00:21:52.660
with my whole heart,

272
00:21:52.660 --> 00:21:56.100
with my whole life,

273
00:21:56.100 --> 00:21:59.380
with my innermost being,

274
00:21:59.380 --> 00:22:04.260
I will bow and wonder and love for you,

275
00:22:04.260 --> 00:22:07.380
the Holy God, Yahweh.

276
00:22:07.380 --> 00:22:11.580
You are my soul's celebration.

277
00:22:11.580 --> 00:22:15.940
Oh, what do you think that means?

278
00:22:15.940 --> 00:22:18.580
My soul's celebration.

279
00:22:19.540 --> 00:22:20.620
Oh my gosh.

280
00:22:20.620 --> 00:22:25.060
How could I ever forget the miracles of kindness

281
00:22:25.060 --> 00:22:26.780
you've done for me?

282
00:22:26.780 --> 00:22:29.580
You know what that tells me right there?

283
00:22:29.580 --> 00:22:31.380
Do you know what that tells me?

284
00:22:32.260 --> 00:22:35.620
That you have acknowledged that God pulled you out

285
00:22:35.620 --> 00:22:37.180
of some sticky situation.

286
00:22:40.180 --> 00:22:42.660
You have to think about that for a minute,

287
00:22:42.660 --> 00:22:44.900
because if you just think that,

288
00:22:44.900 --> 00:22:47.980
whoo, that was pure luck.

289
00:22:48.380 --> 00:22:49.820
Luck ain't have nothing to do with it.

290
00:22:49.820 --> 00:22:53.580
God played his visitation card,

291
00:22:53.580 --> 00:22:56.940
came in and got you out of that situation.

292
00:22:56.940 --> 00:23:00.460
And he hopes that one day you'll be able to connect

293
00:23:00.460 --> 00:23:03.980
the dots to see how many times God stood in.

294
00:23:03.980 --> 00:23:06.260
How many times did he save your life?

295
00:23:06.260 --> 00:23:09.380
Even if something bad you think happened,

296
00:23:09.380 --> 00:23:14.140
God was there to let you know that you are not alone.

297
00:23:14.140 --> 00:23:15.660
You just haven't seen it yet.

298
00:23:16.540 --> 00:23:18.940
Oh my gosh, that blows me away.

299
00:23:18.940 --> 00:23:21.340
So my soul's celebration.

300
00:23:21.340 --> 00:23:25.220
How could I ever forget the miracles of kindness

301
00:23:25.220 --> 00:23:26.820
you've done for me?

302
00:23:27.700 --> 00:23:29.860
Oh, listen to this.

303
00:23:29.860 --> 00:23:34.100
You kissed my heart with forgiveness.

304
00:23:34.100 --> 00:23:34.940
Oh.

305
00:23:38.940 --> 00:23:41.060
That's the God we serve.

306
00:23:41.060 --> 00:23:44.020
He kissed your heart.

307
00:23:45.020 --> 00:23:46.980
Oh, I love it.

308
00:23:46.980 --> 00:23:51.300
You kissed my heart with forgiveness.

309
00:23:52.340 --> 00:23:57.340
In spite of all I've done,

310
00:23:57.500 --> 00:24:02.500
you've healed me inside and out from every disease.

311
00:24:06.740 --> 00:24:08.300
Now, I'll be the first one to admit,

312
00:24:08.300 --> 00:24:10.820
you know what, sometimes you can read these things

313
00:24:10.820 --> 00:24:11.980
in script and you go,

314
00:24:11.980 --> 00:24:15.500
well, gee, I still suffer from this,

315
00:24:15.500 --> 00:24:16.620
I still suffer from that.

316
00:24:16.620 --> 00:24:17.460
But you know what?

317
00:24:17.460 --> 00:24:18.940
God is still God.

318
00:24:18.940 --> 00:24:21.660
Whatever's going on, you have to trust

319
00:24:21.660 --> 00:24:24.420
that whatever's going on is not from him,

320
00:24:24.420 --> 00:24:25.700
it's of the devil.

321
00:24:25.700 --> 00:24:27.100
It's as simple as that.

322
00:24:27.100 --> 00:24:31.540
So are you gonna allow the original orphan

323
00:24:31.540 --> 00:24:34.620
to determine how you determine God?

324
00:24:34.620 --> 00:24:37.020
Or are you gonna just lay that down and say,

325
00:24:37.020 --> 00:24:41.300
God, you have told me what you think of me.

326
00:24:41.300 --> 00:24:43.980
You have kissed my heart.

327
00:24:43.980 --> 00:24:48.140
You have held me tenderly in your arms.

328
00:24:48.140 --> 00:24:50.740
That's got to mean something.

329
00:24:50.740 --> 00:24:53.900
It's got to look like something.

330
00:24:53.900 --> 00:24:56.820
And we have to be willing to stand up and say,

331
00:24:56.820 --> 00:24:58.980
not today, devil, not today,

332
00:24:58.980 --> 00:25:00.980
because today belongs to you.

333
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:00.840
to the Lord.

334
00:25:02.840 --> 00:25:04.560
I love it, I love it.

335
00:25:04.560 --> 00:25:06.480
Oh, the last part of this verse,

336
00:25:06.480 --> 00:25:10.720
you've rescued me from hell and saved my life.

337
00:25:10.720 --> 00:25:15.600
You crowned me with love and mercy.

338
00:25:15.600 --> 00:25:19.800
Oh my gosh, that's what I wanna do for you today.

339
00:25:19.800 --> 00:25:24.800
I wanna walk you in to your coronation ceremony.

340
00:25:26.080 --> 00:25:28.480
Oh my gosh.

341
00:25:31.000 --> 00:25:34.120
Okay, Walter, calm down, calm down.

342
00:25:37.280 --> 00:25:38.720
Okay, here we go.

343
00:25:41.360 --> 00:25:43.840
When you speak of the heart,

344
00:25:45.880 --> 00:25:48.880
when you speak of the heart, the life,

345
00:25:48.880 --> 00:25:53.880
the innermost man, even the soul like we've just read,

346
00:25:54.120 --> 00:25:56.120
each one of those in and of themselves

347
00:25:56.120 --> 00:25:59.920
can speak to the whole person.

348
00:25:59.920 --> 00:26:02.640
So there was an, oh, my heart, this.

349
00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:05.680
Oh, my life is like this.

350
00:26:05.680 --> 00:26:08.720
Oh, my inner being is like this.

351
00:26:08.720 --> 00:26:13.720
I heard here, oh, and you're talking about the whole of you.

352
00:26:14.800 --> 00:26:16.440
Do you understand what I'm saying?

353
00:26:16.440 --> 00:26:21.440
So when God takes the time to say your whole heart,

354
00:26:22.800 --> 00:26:27.800
your whole life, your whole innermost being,

355
00:26:28.320 --> 00:26:29.680
you know what he's saying?

356
00:26:30.680 --> 00:26:35.680
He is saying that nothing is out of place.

357
00:26:37.000 --> 00:26:38.640
Nothing is missing.

358
00:26:38.640 --> 00:26:42.680
Nothing is laying back on the couch somewhere

359
00:26:42.680 --> 00:26:43.800
and you forgot it.

360
00:26:45.080 --> 00:26:46.640
Do you get that?

361
00:26:46.640 --> 00:26:49.000
You ain't got, you haven't forgotten nothing

362
00:26:49.000 --> 00:26:53.760
because right here, God says, hey, with your whole,

363
00:26:53.760 --> 00:26:57.600
with all, nothing missing, with all of it,

364
00:26:58.400 --> 00:26:59.920
because hey, if you think about it,

365
00:26:59.920 --> 00:27:01.480
didn't you make Jesus Lord?

366
00:27:04.120 --> 00:27:06.560
Did, come on, let's be real.

367
00:27:06.560 --> 00:27:11.200
Did you make Jesus Lord of your life?

368
00:27:11.200 --> 00:27:13.480
Did he make, did you make him Lord?

369
00:27:13.480 --> 00:27:17.000
Then what is he Lord over?

370
00:27:19.080 --> 00:27:19.960
Do you get that?

371
00:27:19.960 --> 00:27:21.600
Do you understand that?

372
00:27:21.600 --> 00:27:24.880
What did he make, what is he Lord over?

373
00:27:25.760 --> 00:27:28.520
A part of your heart, those things that you think,

374
00:27:28.520 --> 00:27:32.240
well, Jesus, you can live, you can take this part here,

375
00:27:32.240 --> 00:27:34.720
but I have to still work on this stuff back here.

376
00:27:36.080 --> 00:27:38.240
Because if that's the idea,

377
00:27:38.240 --> 00:27:40.640
you just went down a wrong turn

378
00:27:40.640 --> 00:27:42.480
and you're listening to the orphan.

379
00:27:45.080 --> 00:27:46.920
Because that don't work.

380
00:27:46.920 --> 00:27:51.920
Hey, didn't, didn't God say,

381
00:27:52.920 --> 00:27:57.920
didn't the Bible say that whosoever will may come?

382
00:27:59.600 --> 00:28:01.320
Did he say, whosoever will,

383
00:28:01.320 --> 00:28:04.440
who's already cleaned up their life can come?

384
00:28:04.440 --> 00:28:05.280
Did he say that?

385
00:28:05.280 --> 00:28:06.520
No, he didn't.

386
00:28:07.760 --> 00:28:10.040
So when Jesus hung on a cross,

387
00:28:10.040 --> 00:28:15.040
you came with all your baggage and said, here, remember?

388
00:28:16.160 --> 00:28:19.080
And he said, thank you for all of that.

389
00:28:19.080 --> 00:28:20.880
Now, here's what I'm giving you,

390
00:28:21.160 --> 00:28:23.120
this nice little dainty purse.

391
00:28:23.120 --> 00:28:24.960
Everything you need is right in there.

392
00:28:24.960 --> 00:28:28.040
And you take it and you go, oh, thank you.

393
00:28:28.040 --> 00:28:29.480
You got everything you need

394
00:28:29.480 --> 00:28:33.960
right in that little piece of lunch, little small thing.

395
00:28:33.960 --> 00:28:37.000
All the love, the joy, the care, the long suffering,

396
00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:39.240
the gentleness, the kindness, the meekness,

397
00:28:39.240 --> 00:28:41.600
all the fruit of the spirit that you need,

398
00:28:41.600 --> 00:28:44.600
all five of the five fold ministries,

399
00:28:44.600 --> 00:28:46.080
everything you need is there.

400
00:28:46.960 --> 00:28:47.960
It's in you.

401
00:28:48.880 --> 00:28:50.120
It's in you.

402
00:28:50.160 --> 00:28:52.400
Everything you need is in you.

403
00:28:52.400 --> 00:28:54.160
Oh my gosh.

404
00:28:56.280 --> 00:29:00.120
Go to Romans chapter eight, verse 14.

405
00:29:00.120 --> 00:29:02.320
My gosh, my gosh.

406
00:29:02.320 --> 00:29:03.320
I'm sorry.

407
00:29:03.320 --> 00:29:04.160
I'm sorry.

408
00:29:04.160 --> 00:29:08.040
I am a little excited today, you know?

409
00:29:08.040 --> 00:29:09.160
I am a little excited.

410
00:29:09.160 --> 00:29:11.560
Well, I think I've been excited the whole week.

411
00:29:13.560 --> 00:29:14.600
As I go through this.

412
00:29:14.600 --> 00:29:17.520
Romans chapter eight, verse 14 and 15,

413
00:29:17.520 --> 00:29:21.960
and it says, the mature child, children of God

414
00:29:21.960 --> 00:29:26.960
are those who are moved by the impulses of the Holy Spirit.

415
00:29:27.320 --> 00:29:32.320
And you did not receive the spirit of religious duty.

416
00:29:32.440 --> 00:29:34.520
Remember when I talked to you a little bit

417
00:29:34.520 --> 00:29:35.920
about that earlier?

418
00:29:35.920 --> 00:29:37.160
Remember that?

419
00:29:37.160 --> 00:29:40.160
Ah, there it is, religious duty.

420
00:29:40.160 --> 00:29:42.080
In other words, I got to serve.

421
00:29:42.080 --> 00:29:45.120
I have to serve.

422
00:29:45.120 --> 00:29:46.000
I have to do this.

423
00:29:46.000 --> 00:29:47.760
I have to, I have to, I have to.

424
00:29:47.760 --> 00:29:49.160
No, you don't.

425
00:29:50.360 --> 00:29:52.120
Because of your love for him,

426
00:29:52.120 --> 00:29:54.120
because of what he's did for you,

427
00:29:54.120 --> 00:29:57.440
what you're doing is, you get to do something.

428
00:29:57.440 --> 00:29:58.960
You get to serve.

429
00:29:58.960 --> 00:30:00.000
You get to do.

430
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:04.520
something out of the love that God has poured into you.

431
00:30:04.520 --> 00:30:07.920
Now, you've internalized that and you know what?

432
00:30:07.920 --> 00:30:12.920
You poured back out to him and to those around you.

433
00:30:13.720 --> 00:30:17.480
It's like filling up the glass

434
00:30:17.480 --> 00:30:19.220
until it begins to overflow.

435
00:30:20.440 --> 00:30:23.600
And if you're not careful, somebody's gonna get wet.

436
00:30:26.280 --> 00:30:27.960
Oh, oh my gosh.

437
00:30:27.960 --> 00:30:31.440
Okay, okay, let's get back to this.

438
00:30:31.440 --> 00:30:32.680
Let me read it again.

439
00:30:32.680 --> 00:30:37.640
The mature children of God are those who are moved

440
00:30:37.640 --> 00:30:40.720
by the impulses of the Holy Spirit.

441
00:30:40.720 --> 00:30:45.720
And you did not receive the spirit of religious duty,

442
00:30:45.840 --> 00:30:50.840
leading you back into fear of never being enough,

443
00:30:52.200 --> 00:30:53.800
never being enough.

444
00:30:53.800 --> 00:30:55.640
You know who that is?

445
00:30:55.640 --> 00:30:57.240
That's the orphan.

446
00:30:57.240 --> 00:30:58.320
Oh my God.

447
00:30:58.320 --> 00:31:03.320
But you have received the spirit of full acceptance

448
00:31:03.960 --> 00:31:08.840
enfolding you into the family of God.

449
00:31:08.840 --> 00:31:13.840
And you will never, never, never, never feel orphaned.

450
00:31:24.880 --> 00:31:26.760
Well, I'll see you next week.

451
00:31:27.520 --> 00:31:28.440
That's the end.

452
00:31:28.440 --> 00:31:30.560
No, did you get that?

453
00:31:30.560 --> 00:31:32.960
You'll never feel orphaned.

454
00:31:32.960 --> 00:31:36.120
Then that means there was a time you were orphaned

455
00:31:36.120 --> 00:31:39.440
and you were orphaned when you were thrown out

456
00:31:39.440 --> 00:31:44.440
into the field, the world connected to Adam the fallen.

457
00:31:46.400 --> 00:31:51.400
You were an orphan, but no more, no more devil.

458
00:31:53.240 --> 00:31:56.160
The devil has been severed.

459
00:31:56.520 --> 00:31:57.360
Do you get that?

460
00:31:57.360 --> 00:31:58.200
Oh my gosh.

461
00:31:58.200 --> 00:32:02.200
For as he rises up within you,

462
00:32:02.200 --> 00:32:07.200
our spirits join him in saying the words of tender affection.

463
00:32:08.600 --> 00:32:09.440
Love him.

464
00:32:15.160 --> 00:32:19.360
Beloved father, who are we talking about?

465
00:32:19.360 --> 00:32:22.280
We're talking about the creator who always,

466
00:32:22.280 --> 00:32:27.280
his intent was always to portray himself as father.

467
00:32:27.320 --> 00:32:29.640
Do you get that?

468
00:32:29.640 --> 00:32:30.520
Woo.

469
00:32:30.520 --> 00:32:31.360
I do.

470
00:32:32.600 --> 00:32:35.880
This is where the quest leads us.

471
00:32:35.880 --> 00:32:40.880
You baby girl, you baby girl are on your way

472
00:32:41.520 --> 00:32:43.120
to your coronation.

473
00:32:43.120 --> 00:32:45.360
I told you we're going into a coronation.

474
00:32:46.120 --> 00:32:51.120
Oh, let's go to James chapter one, verse 12.

475
00:32:53.960 --> 00:32:55.320
And it reads,

476
00:32:58.280 --> 00:33:03.280
it reads, if your faith remains strong,

477
00:33:03.960 --> 00:33:06.760
even while surrounded,

478
00:33:06.760 --> 00:33:11.760
even while surrounded by life's difficulties,

479
00:33:12.480 --> 00:33:17.480
you will continue to experience the untold blessings of God.

480
00:33:20.240 --> 00:33:21.560
Whoa, whoa, whoa.

481
00:33:21.560 --> 00:33:23.160
I might have to read that again

482
00:33:24.160 --> 00:33:29.160
because I think that we sometimes don't get that.

483
00:33:29.200 --> 00:33:32.600
If your faith, your ability to trust,

484
00:33:33.920 --> 00:33:38.920
your ability to trust, to have confidence in what God said,

485
00:33:39.920 --> 00:33:44.320
in your ability to be assured that God said

486
00:33:44.320 --> 00:33:46.720
that he would never leave you or ever forsake you,

487
00:33:46.720 --> 00:33:49.800
if those are your, excuse me,

488
00:33:49.800 --> 00:33:54.800
if that is your faith and it remains strong.

489
00:33:55.640 --> 00:33:58.120
Now, how strong do you have to be?

490
00:33:58.120 --> 00:33:59.360
Well, Jesus said,

491
00:33:59.360 --> 00:34:02.120
if your faith is the size of a mustard seed.

492
00:34:05.000 --> 00:34:07.080
So we don't have an excuse.

493
00:34:07.280 --> 00:34:10.639
All we have to do is remember the word.

494
00:34:10.639 --> 00:34:12.719
Remember what God has said.

495
00:34:12.719 --> 00:34:15.600
Remember that he has kissed my heart.

496
00:34:15.600 --> 00:34:17.239
He's kissed your heart.

497
00:34:17.239 --> 00:34:20.920
He holds you tenderly in his arms.

498
00:34:20.920 --> 00:34:23.320
He hasn't forgotten about you.

499
00:34:25.000 --> 00:34:26.159
Do you get that?

500
00:34:26.159 --> 00:34:27.000
Wow.

501
00:34:27.000 --> 00:34:29.040
If your faith remains strong,

502
00:34:29.040 --> 00:34:32.800
even while surrounded by life's difficulties,

503
00:34:32.800 --> 00:34:34.960
all hell is coming against you.

504
00:34:35.120 --> 00:34:37.280
Everything you look, you look to the left.

505
00:34:37.280 --> 00:34:39.280
All you see is all the butts on that side.

506
00:34:39.280 --> 00:34:40.239
You look to the right.

507
00:34:40.239 --> 00:34:42.080
All you see is butts on that side.

508
00:34:42.080 --> 00:34:43.880
You look in front of you, oh my gosh,

509
00:34:43.880 --> 00:34:46.840
everywhere you go, everywhere you look, there are butts.

510
00:34:46.840 --> 00:34:49.960
But you can't, you're too small, you're too short,

511
00:34:49.960 --> 00:34:51.560
you're too fat, you're too tall,

512
00:34:51.560 --> 00:34:53.080
you're too black, you're too white,

513
00:34:53.080 --> 00:34:55.880
you ain't got no hair, you got too much hair.

514
00:34:55.880 --> 00:34:58.400
Oh my gosh, there's always something

515
00:34:58.400 --> 00:35:00.080
that's gonna stand between you.

516
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:02.520
and God, and that's a button that has to stop.

517
00:35:02.520 --> 00:35:05.120
The only button that matters is God.

518
00:35:05.120 --> 00:35:10.120
But God is the only thing that matters, but God.

519
00:35:10.240 --> 00:35:15.000
Oh my goodness gracious, oh my gosh.

520
00:35:16.520 --> 00:35:18.920
Ooh, if you, one more time,

521
00:35:18.920 --> 00:35:22.440
if your faith remains strong,

522
00:35:22.440 --> 00:35:26.920
even while surrounded by life's difficulties,

523
00:35:26.920 --> 00:35:29.400
you will continue to experience

524
00:35:29.400 --> 00:35:34.400
the untold blessings of God.

525
00:35:34.560 --> 00:35:36.540
Do you, do you get that?

526
00:35:36.540 --> 00:35:39.120
That there are times where

527
00:35:40.880 --> 00:35:43.840
sometimes you don't even know how God's blessing you.

528
00:35:44.940 --> 00:35:47.600
Sometimes you can't even figure out

529
00:35:47.600 --> 00:35:51.000
how God's gonna, how God's gonna bless you.

530
00:35:51.000 --> 00:35:52.720
You ain't got a clue,

531
00:35:53.720 --> 00:35:55.400
but God knows.

532
00:35:55.400 --> 00:35:59.640
He knew when you were stirring in his heart,

533
00:35:59.640 --> 00:36:03.500
every decision that you would ever make,

534
00:36:03.500 --> 00:36:06.840
every bad path that you ever would take,

535
00:36:06.840 --> 00:36:11.680
he had it all ready figured out in such a way that,

536
00:36:13.360 --> 00:36:18.360
hey, do you think that when you went,

537
00:36:18.400 --> 00:36:19.760
oops, God went, no!

538
00:36:20.720 --> 00:36:25.720
Now I gotta re-read stuff, oh, get this is their smile.

539
00:36:32.120 --> 00:36:33.760
Dude, you get that?

540
00:36:33.760 --> 00:36:36.760
You didn't catch God off guard.

541
00:36:40.680 --> 00:36:42.800
Oh, I think I'll write that one down.

542
00:36:42.800 --> 00:36:45.760
You didn't catch God off guard.

543
00:36:46.040 --> 00:36:51.040
Because he's God, you can't pull the wool over his eyes.

544
00:36:52.200 --> 00:36:55.880
You didn't, you can't do nothing that he didn't see coming.

545
00:36:55.880 --> 00:36:58.720
Because he loves you, he's already made a way.

546
00:36:58.720 --> 00:37:01.960
That's what Jesus did when he hung on a cross.

547
00:37:01.960 --> 00:37:06.400
Oh my God, true happiness comes as you

548
00:37:06.400 --> 00:37:09.440
pass the test with faith.

549
00:37:09.440 --> 00:37:11.640
Look, bad things happen.

550
00:37:11.640 --> 00:37:14.860
And as I said before, God don't waste nothing.

551
00:37:14.860 --> 00:37:15.820
And you know what?

552
00:37:15.820 --> 00:37:18.860
The devil sometimes is too stupid to realize

553
00:37:18.860 --> 00:37:20.540
that when he messes with you,

554
00:37:20.540 --> 00:37:23.660
all God's gonna do is take everything that he throws at,

555
00:37:23.660 --> 00:37:25.340
every stone he throws to you,

556
00:37:25.340 --> 00:37:29.500
he will turn that into a stepping stone into your destiny.

557
00:37:29.500 --> 00:37:31.620
That's the God that we serve.

558
00:37:31.620 --> 00:37:36.620
He will 828 it, look that at Romans 828, oh my gosh.

559
00:37:39.320 --> 00:37:44.320
And receive the victorious crown of life,

560
00:37:44.480 --> 00:37:49.480
promise to every lover of God, the crown of life.

561
00:37:52.280 --> 00:37:53.960
You've been crowned baby.

562
00:37:54.960 --> 00:37:56.520
Do you get that?

563
00:37:56.520 --> 00:37:59.840
I hope so, because that's not all.

564
00:38:01.480 --> 00:38:04.880
Go to first Peter chapter five.

565
00:38:08.440 --> 00:38:10.400
Let me come, I'm sorry.

566
00:38:11.520 --> 00:38:13.240
I'm sorry about that.

567
00:38:13.240 --> 00:38:17.680
Because this, I get excited about what I see here.

568
00:38:17.680 --> 00:38:21.200
And I'm hoping that at some point that you catch the fire

569
00:38:21.200 --> 00:38:23.360
to see what God has called you into,

570
00:38:23.360 --> 00:38:28.360
because we need to see how big our God is.

571
00:38:28.420 --> 00:38:31.800
And he allowed us to unveil him

572
00:38:31.800 --> 00:38:36.800
so that we can see more of who we are as his kids.

573
00:38:37.200 --> 00:38:42.200
Oh, first Peter chapter five, verse four.

574
00:38:43.080 --> 00:38:46.320
And when the shepherd King appears,

575
00:38:46.320 --> 00:38:48.000
talking about Jesus Christ,

576
00:38:48.000 --> 00:38:52.800
you will win the victor's crown of glory

577
00:38:53.840 --> 00:38:56.440
that never fades away.

578
00:38:56.440 --> 00:39:01.340
Oh my gosh, another crown.

579
00:39:01.340 --> 00:39:03.340
Wow, now you got two.

580
00:39:06.040 --> 00:39:09.720
You got two crowns, what are you gonna do with two crowns?

581
00:39:09.760 --> 00:39:12.200
What, are you gonna wear one one day?

582
00:39:12.200 --> 00:39:14.360
And you go, oh, well, that was kind of tarnished.

583
00:39:14.360 --> 00:39:15.400
I'll let it over here.

584
00:39:15.400 --> 00:39:16.720
And I'll put the next one on.

585
00:39:16.720 --> 00:39:18.160
Is that what you're gonna do?

586
00:39:19.680 --> 00:39:21.600
Well, you got the crown of life

587
00:39:21.600 --> 00:39:23.320
and now you got the crown of glory.

588
00:39:23.320 --> 00:39:26.040
Woo, that should be enough, right?

589
00:39:26.040 --> 00:39:29.240
We could just say, hey, two crowns, hey, I'm good.

590
00:39:29.240 --> 00:39:30.240
I'm good to go.

591
00:39:30.240 --> 00:39:31.280
Hey, look at me.

592
00:39:33.280 --> 00:39:35.960
No, no, no, why?

593
00:39:35.960 --> 00:39:39.480
First Corinthians chapter nine, verse 25.

594
00:39:42.080 --> 00:39:43.720
You know what, if I had the time,

595
00:39:43.720 --> 00:39:47.520
I'll let you go back and read some of the context

596
00:39:47.520 --> 00:39:50.620
in these verses so that you can see it, especially here.

597
00:39:51.560 --> 00:39:53.960
In verse 25, it says,

598
00:39:53.960 --> 00:39:58.960
a true athlete will be disciplined in every respect.

599
00:40:00.960 --> 00:40:04.040
Practicing constant self-control

600
00:40:04.040 --> 00:40:09.040
in order to win a laurel wreath that quickly withers.

601
00:40:10.000 --> 00:40:11.840
Wow, now that's going back.

602
00:40:11.840 --> 00:40:13.840
Today that would be in the Olympics.

603
00:40:13.840 --> 00:40:16.320
Hey, you can win a gold medal, a bronze medal,

604
00:40:16.320 --> 00:40:17.840
a silver medal, you can win all these

605
00:40:17.840 --> 00:40:19.080
different kind of medals.

606
00:40:20.140 --> 00:40:20.980
Why?

607
00:40:20.980 --> 00:40:23.240
You know, sooner or later they're gonna be cleaned up,

608
00:40:23.240 --> 00:40:24.120
they're gonna be tarnished.

609
00:40:24.120 --> 00:40:27.760
But in the old days, when the time Paul was writing this,

610
00:40:27.760 --> 00:40:30.080
they got a little laurel wreath, you know.

611
00:40:30.080 --> 00:40:33.440
Hey, here's Sweden, it was midsummer.

612
00:40:33.440 --> 00:40:34.800
Take these little plants, plant around

613
00:40:34.800 --> 00:40:36.960
and put them on a woman's head.

614
00:40:36.960 --> 00:40:39.660
And then we walk around, oh, it's midsummer.

615
00:40:42.920 --> 00:40:43.800
And you know what?

616
00:40:43.800 --> 00:40:46.260
Sooner or later they fade.

617
00:40:46.260 --> 00:40:49.420
Oh my gosh, they would wither away.

618
00:40:49.420 --> 00:40:53.720
But we run the race to win the victor's crown

619
00:40:53.720 --> 00:40:57.080
that will last forever.

620
00:40:57.080 --> 00:41:00.040
Wow, an everlasting crown.

621
00:41:00.040 --> 00:41:01.820
Wow, now you got three.

622
00:41:06.200 --> 00:41:08.440
So I guess in a seven day week,

623
00:41:08.440 --> 00:41:10.360
I guess you can wear one one day,

624
00:41:10.360 --> 00:41:12.400
be off a day, wear another one,

625
00:41:12.400 --> 00:41:14.680
be off a day, wear another, be off a day,

626
00:41:14.680 --> 00:41:15.520
wear another.

627
00:41:17.580 --> 00:41:18.480
You could do that.

628
00:41:20.120 --> 00:41:21.620
You could do that.

629
00:41:21.620 --> 00:41:23.720
You could definitely do that.

630
00:41:23.720 --> 00:41:24.820
But you know what?

631
00:41:25.820 --> 00:41:27.460
That's not all.

632
00:41:29.340 --> 00:41:31.740
Second Timothy chapter four.

633
00:41:31.740 --> 00:41:36.500
Let's go and take a look at Second Timothy chapter four,

634
00:41:36.500 --> 00:41:39.500
where it says in verse eight,

635
00:41:39.500 --> 00:41:44.500
there's a crown of righteousness waiting in heaven for you.

636
00:41:45.580 --> 00:41:49.460
And I know that my Lord will reward you

637
00:41:49.460 --> 00:41:53.460
on his day of righteous judgment.

638
00:41:53.460 --> 00:41:58.020
And this crown is not only waiting for you,

639
00:41:58.020 --> 00:42:03.020
but for all who love and long for his unveiling.

640
00:42:06.580 --> 00:42:10.140
Oh my gosh, I want to get up and dance.

641
00:42:10.140 --> 00:42:10.980
Do you see?

642
00:42:10.980 --> 00:42:13.580
A lot of people are waiting to go to heaven.

643
00:42:13.580 --> 00:42:16.760
It is not in a sweet bye and bye.

644
00:42:18.140 --> 00:42:19.900
It's not just for that.

645
00:42:19.900 --> 00:42:21.860
It's not in a sweet bye and bye.

646
00:42:21.860 --> 00:42:24.620
It is for now that we are able to,

647
00:42:24.620 --> 00:42:27.060
because we want to unveil him when.

648
00:42:28.140 --> 00:42:29.780
This is where it matters.

649
00:42:30.700 --> 00:42:32.220
This is where it matters.

650
00:42:32.220 --> 00:42:34.700
Do you, I'm sorry.

651
00:42:34.700 --> 00:42:39.020
Do you remember the verse where we said that I think

652
00:42:39.020 --> 00:42:40.540
that I mentioned it,

653
00:42:40.540 --> 00:42:42.380
where it talked about the fact

654
00:42:42.380 --> 00:42:45.320
that we are God's advertisement,

655
00:42:46.340 --> 00:42:48.520
that we are his ad campaign.

656
00:42:49.520 --> 00:42:53.760
The only way people are going to want to know who God is,

657
00:42:53.760 --> 00:42:57.680
is when they look at you, do you get that?

658
00:42:57.680 --> 00:43:00.760
You are God's advertisement.

659
00:43:00.760 --> 00:43:05.760
But if you walk around acting as though God does not exist

660
00:43:07.200 --> 00:43:10.880
and you are telling people to come to church with you

661
00:43:10.880 --> 00:43:14.000
and you look like hell warmed over,

662
00:43:15.600 --> 00:43:18.240
people are going to go, thank you very much,

663
00:43:18.960 --> 00:43:19.960
but I don't think so.

664
00:43:22.080 --> 00:43:25.720
We got to be able to show that there's a God of love

665
00:43:25.720 --> 00:43:27.720
and that there's a God who's tender,

666
00:43:27.720 --> 00:43:29.720
that there's a God who has power.

667
00:43:29.720 --> 00:43:31.840
There's a God that laughs at his enemies.

668
00:43:31.840 --> 00:43:32.680
You know what?

669
00:43:32.680 --> 00:43:36.360
I used to think, wow, if God laughs at his enemies,

670
00:43:37.440 --> 00:43:40.000
gee, what does that mean for me?

671
00:43:40.880 --> 00:43:43.280
So I must at one point put myself

672
00:43:43.280 --> 00:43:44.880
in the category of an enemy.

673
00:43:45.880 --> 00:43:48.120
God isn't laughing at me.

674
00:43:50.640 --> 00:43:55.280
I think that if he's laughing, he's cutting a,

675
00:43:55.280 --> 00:43:58.520
you know, busting a gut because of his love for me.

676
00:44:00.160 --> 00:44:01.000
Do you get that?

677
00:44:01.000 --> 00:44:02.400
Sheesh.

678
00:44:02.400 --> 00:44:06.760
So now we got four crowns,

679
00:44:06.760 --> 00:44:09.960
four crowns, the crown of righteousness.

680
00:44:09.960 --> 00:44:13.600
Oh my gosh, four crowns.

681
00:44:14.120 --> 00:44:16.160
There you have it, baby girl.

682
00:44:16.960 --> 00:44:18.240
There you got it.

683
00:44:18.240 --> 00:44:19.520
There you got it.

684
00:44:19.520 --> 00:44:21.760
Your choice of crowns.

685
00:44:21.760 --> 00:44:24.400
Can you imagine opening up your closet

686
00:44:26.240 --> 00:44:27.200
and you're looking there

687
00:44:27.200 --> 00:44:29.600
and the light hits those four crowns

688
00:44:29.600 --> 00:44:31.040
and you're going, oh my God,

689
00:44:31.040 --> 00:44:34.160
you get kind of blinded by the light.

690
00:44:34.160 --> 00:44:35.280
That makes you think of the song.

691
00:44:35.280 --> 00:44:36.880
Oh my gosh, I can't see anything.

692
00:44:36.880 --> 00:44:37.720
Woo.

693
00:44:40.240 --> 00:44:41.200
Wow.

694
00:44:41.200 --> 00:44:43.760
Now, I want you to do something for me.

695
00:44:45.520 --> 00:44:46.880
I want you to do something.

696
00:44:48.120 --> 00:44:49.600
And I hope you do this.

697
00:44:52.680 --> 00:44:54.720
I want you to close your eyes

698
00:44:55.560 --> 00:44:56.960
and I want you to trust me.

699
00:44:58.880 --> 00:44:59.720
Okay?

700
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:03.960
I want you to take a deep breath.

701
00:45:03.960 --> 00:45:08.360
I want you to breathe in and hold it for the count of three.

702
00:45:10.000 --> 00:45:11.160
Breathe in

703
00:45:15.480 --> 00:45:17.620
and breathe out on the count of three.

704
00:45:22.280 --> 00:45:23.880
I want you to breathe in,

705
00:45:26.840 --> 00:45:29.280
count to three and breathe out.

706
00:45:30.000 --> 00:45:35.000
I want you to breathe out on the count of three.

707
00:45:35.920 --> 00:45:36.960
Breathe in

708
00:45:40.920 --> 00:45:42.160
and breathe out.

709
00:45:45.760 --> 00:45:50.160
Now I want you to relax

710
00:45:50.160 --> 00:45:54.640
and I want you to picture yourself as a little girl,

711
00:45:54.640 --> 00:45:58.280
maybe about, oh, maybe 10, 11 years old.

712
00:45:59.280 --> 00:46:03.560
You open this closet and the light from the room

713
00:46:03.560 --> 00:46:06.640
just radiates off the crown

714
00:46:06.640 --> 00:46:11.640
and you hear the tender voice behind you say,

715
00:46:11.720 --> 00:46:14.800
baby girl, what are you doing?

716
00:46:14.800 --> 00:46:18.240
Now, it wasn't condemning in any way.

717
00:46:18.240 --> 00:46:22.320
Matter of fact, you could hear the curiosity in his voice.

718
00:46:23.960 --> 00:46:26.800
You turn and look up and it's daddy.

719
00:46:26.800 --> 00:46:29.840
It's the father and he's smiling at you.

720
00:46:31.400 --> 00:46:36.400
So you want to wear them and you shyishly reply,

721
00:46:37.240 --> 00:46:39.640
oh, I don't know which one.

722
00:46:40.520 --> 00:46:43.200
The father says, they're all yours.

723
00:46:44.040 --> 00:46:47.880
The great thing is you don't need to pick just one.

724
00:46:47.880 --> 00:46:52.200
You can wear all of them together.

725
00:46:52.200 --> 00:46:55.400
He reaches up and he takes one down

726
00:46:55.440 --> 00:46:57.520
and he calls out its name.

727
00:46:59.560 --> 00:47:02.880
Ah, this one is the crown of life.

728
00:47:04.400 --> 00:47:06.000
It's dunamis.

729
00:47:06.000 --> 00:47:07.840
It's kind of like dynamo,

730
00:47:08.800 --> 00:47:13.800
but it can just sit here and look beautiful on your head.

731
00:47:18.200 --> 00:47:23.200
Oh, this one, as he reaches up and grabs another crown

732
00:47:24.040 --> 00:47:27.000
is the crown of glory.

733
00:47:27.000 --> 00:47:29.320
This is the energy, energia.

734
00:47:30.320 --> 00:47:34.920
You need to become more, even more

735
00:47:34.920 --> 00:47:36.800
than you think is possible.

736
00:47:38.840 --> 00:47:40.680
And he puts it on your head

737
00:47:40.680 --> 00:47:44.960
and it seems to just lock in place on the first crown.

738
00:47:46.480 --> 00:47:51.480
Ah, he says, this one is the crown of everlasting.

739
00:47:52.480 --> 00:47:57.480
This is the expression, the ischus of my love for you.

740
00:47:58.080 --> 00:48:00.440
And again, he places it on your head

741
00:48:01.720 --> 00:48:04.560
and it locked into place.

742
00:48:08.720 --> 00:48:13.720
Then the last crown, he picks it up very gently

743
00:48:14.400 --> 00:48:19.040
and he says, this one is the last, but not the least,

744
00:48:19.040 --> 00:48:22.200
the crown of righteousness.

745
00:48:22.200 --> 00:48:24.120
And he puts it on your head.

746
00:48:26.600 --> 00:48:31.600
And he says, this one is the impact, the kratos

747
00:48:32.280 --> 00:48:37.280
of how we will make an impact in the world,

748
00:48:37.840 --> 00:48:39.880
in your world.

749
00:48:39.880 --> 00:48:41.040
Puts it on your head.

750
00:48:42.760 --> 00:48:47.760
And then he leans over and he holds you close to him

751
00:48:47.800 --> 00:48:50.840
with all these crowns on your head.

752
00:48:50.840 --> 00:48:55.240
And he says, I have crowned you, my people,

753
00:48:55.240 --> 00:49:00.240
to rule in this life with the power I have endued

754
00:49:01.000 --> 00:49:03.680
upon you and within you.

755
00:49:03.680 --> 00:49:07.480
I speak life to you.

756
00:49:07.480 --> 00:49:10.400
I say to you, live.

757
00:49:11.440 --> 00:49:16.200
Yes, I say to you, live.

758
00:49:18.600 --> 00:49:22.760
Now you can open your eyes.

759
00:49:24.040 --> 00:49:29.040
Could you see yourself being crowned by the father,

760
00:49:29.200 --> 00:49:32.400
the creator of the heaven and the earth

761
00:49:32.400 --> 00:49:36.120
who calls you his daughter?

762
00:49:37.040 --> 00:49:37.880
Wow.

763
00:49:40.400 --> 00:49:45.400
Don't you see that it's got to look like something?

764
00:49:48.160 --> 00:49:50.040
It's got to look like something.

765
00:49:50.960 --> 00:49:53.280
The virtuous woman.

766
00:49:53.280 --> 00:49:57.320
Let's go to Proverbs chapter 31.

767
00:49:57.320 --> 00:49:59.960
And we're going to just read one verse of scripture.

768
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:05.000
And I think that that should be enough for you.

769
00:50:05.200 --> 00:50:09.560
In Proverbs chapter 31, verse 10, it reads,

770
00:50:09.560 --> 00:50:14.520
who could ever find a wife like this one?

771
00:50:14.520 --> 00:50:19.300
She is a woman of strength and mighty valor.

772
00:50:20.440 --> 00:50:24.420
She's full of wealth and wisdom.

773
00:50:24.420 --> 00:50:29.280
The price paid for her was greater than any jewel.

774
00:50:29.280 --> 00:50:33.320
Did you know that the woman of strength and mighty valor,

775
00:50:33.320 --> 00:50:37.960
the word for mighty valor is the Greek word, khal.

776
00:50:37.960 --> 00:50:41.320
I don't, I know I didn't pronounce that right.

777
00:50:41.320 --> 00:50:44.040
K-H-A-Y-L-L.

778
00:50:44.040 --> 00:50:48.200
And this has a whole truckload of meanings.

779
00:50:48.200 --> 00:50:51.360
Like mighty, wealth, excellent,

780
00:50:51.360 --> 00:50:54.820
moral righteousness, military prowess.

781
00:50:55.920 --> 00:50:58.720
You could say that this woman is a warring woman.

782
00:50:59.280 --> 00:51:01.680
Remember I talked about Xena?

783
00:51:01.680 --> 00:51:04.660
She will make Xena look stupid.

784
00:51:06.800 --> 00:51:11.720
Her worth is far above any jewel.

785
00:51:11.720 --> 00:51:12.720
And you know what?

786
00:51:12.720 --> 00:51:17.720
Your worth is far above any and every jewel ever.

787
00:51:21.000 --> 00:51:21.820
Why?

788
00:51:21.820 --> 00:51:26.540
Because Jesus Christ laid his life down for you.

789
00:51:27.540 --> 00:51:32.540
And he poured his blood out for you.

790
00:51:33.020 --> 00:51:37.880
And he brought you back out of the pains of the enemy,

791
00:51:37.880 --> 00:51:41.440
out of what the enemy had in store for you.

792
00:51:41.440 --> 00:51:45.460
And he placed you upon a pillar

793
00:51:45.460 --> 00:51:50.460
so that you will always be as a light upon a hill.

794
00:51:51.140 --> 00:51:54.060
With all those crowns, you better be shining.

795
00:51:57.100 --> 00:51:58.180
Okay.

796
00:51:58.180 --> 00:52:00.300
Well, that's my heart.

797
00:52:00.300 --> 00:52:03.700
And I hope that you were blessed

798
00:52:03.700 --> 00:52:06.780
with everything that we shared this week.

799
00:52:06.780 --> 00:52:08.440
You know, remember,

800
00:52:11.020 --> 00:52:13.860
remember those of you who got in touch with me

801
00:52:13.860 --> 00:52:17.660
before we started today, you will be getting your stuff.

802
00:52:18.600 --> 00:52:21.460
If you haven't got in touch with me today,

803
00:52:21.460 --> 00:52:26.260
you have until Monday, but it will be at $49.

804
00:52:27.540 --> 00:52:28.380
Okay.

805
00:52:28.380 --> 00:52:30.580
And I think that that's a fair deal

806
00:52:30.580 --> 00:52:33.140
for all the things that you're getting.

807
00:52:33.140 --> 00:52:35.780
So I want to say, God bless you.

808
00:52:35.780 --> 00:52:36.980
I love you.

809
00:52:36.980 --> 00:52:38.900
And I'm thankful for the privilege

810
00:52:38.900 --> 00:52:43.900
of going on this quest with me and my father

811
00:52:44.660 --> 00:52:47.700
and your father to see more of his heart

812
00:52:47.700 --> 00:52:52.700
as he has unveiled for you the wow, the woman of worth.

813
00:52:53.700 --> 00:52:56.620
And I would like to close with a word of prayer.

814
00:52:56.620 --> 00:52:57.940
Father, I thank you.

815
00:52:57.940 --> 00:52:58.780
I thank you.

816
00:52:58.780 --> 00:53:00.580
I thank you for this time.

817
00:53:00.580 --> 00:53:02.860
I thank you, Father, for your goodness

818
00:53:02.860 --> 00:53:05.900
and how you've prepared each and every one of us

819
00:53:05.900 --> 00:53:07.100
so differently.

820
00:53:07.100 --> 00:53:12.100
And yet you brought us together for such a time as now.

821
00:53:12.140 --> 00:53:17.140
Father, I thank you for those who will go after the offer

822
00:53:17.940 --> 00:53:18.940
that I made.

823
00:53:18.940 --> 00:53:21.940
And I thank you, Father, for blessing each and every person.

824
00:53:21.940 --> 00:53:24.500
Father, I just thank you for blessing them.

825
00:53:24.500 --> 00:53:27.140
I thank you, Father, for working in them

826
00:53:27.140 --> 00:53:30.940
to do and to will of your good pleasure.

827
00:53:30.940 --> 00:53:32.260
I thank you, Father,

828
00:53:32.260 --> 00:53:34.780
that you will open up the windows of heaven

829
00:53:34.780 --> 00:53:39.340
and continue to bless them with your goodness.

830
00:53:39.340 --> 00:53:42.060
So God bless you.

831
00:53:42.060 --> 00:53:43.500
I love you.

832
00:53:43.500 --> 00:53:48.500
And hey, maybe you'll tune in for the next time we do this.

833
00:53:48.900 --> 00:53:50.060
God bless you.

834
00:53:50.060 --> 00:53:51.380
Have an awesome day.

835
00:53:51.940 --> 00:53:53.620
Bye.
