00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:19.840 So we're still going down that line. 00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:22.800 So Acts chapter 3 verse 6, and I know you know this. 00:01:22.800 --> 00:01:28.960 I have no silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you in the name of Jesus Christ 00:01:28.960 --> 00:01:30.520 of Nazareth, rise up and walk. 00:01:30.520 --> 00:01:36.560 I have no silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you in the name of Jesus Christ 00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:38.640 of Nazareth, rise up and walk. 00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:42.920 Guys, the thing is we have nothing else to give. 00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:44.760 We have nothing else to give. 00:01:44.760 --> 00:01:49.120 The only thing we have is the sun. 00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:51.280 This is something that has to settle in my heart. 00:01:51.520 --> 00:01:53.960 I begin to think that I have something else to give. 00:01:53.960 --> 00:01:58.920 I begin to think maybe it's my ability to talk and convince somebody. 00:01:58.920 --> 00:02:01.240 I begin to think perhaps it's apologetics. 00:02:01.240 --> 00:02:03.000 I begin to think it's perhaps money. 00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:08.560 I begin to think it's perhaps inviting someone home and engaging them in a discussion. 00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:12.880 All those are methods, but the only thing that you have that you can give away is the 00:02:12.880 --> 00:02:13.880 sun. 00:02:13.880 --> 00:02:15.640 There's nothing else you can give away. 00:02:15.640 --> 00:02:20.320 You can only give away the sun. 00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:26.200 At the end of the day, all the other ways are methods and we get stuck with the methods. 00:02:26.200 --> 00:02:30.920 Especially in the Western world, sitting and talking about methods and finding the best 00:02:30.920 --> 00:02:35.040 method and writing a book on the best method, man, the amount of money made on books talking 00:02:35.040 --> 00:02:39.400 about methods is crazy. 00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:43.800 I'm hoping that we don't fall into that trap where we end up being a church that prays 00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:47.640 over every method and does nothing with the method because the only thing we can give 00:02:47.640 --> 00:02:48.920 away is the sun. 00:02:48.920 --> 00:02:53.480 And so this idea of Acts chapter 3, 6 where it says silver and gold have I not. 00:02:53.480 --> 00:02:59.600 I remember going to a printing shop in Richmond and the guy came up to me and he said, I've 00:02:59.600 --> 00:03:00.960 got a headache. 00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:06.440 And I just read Acts chapter 3 that morning and he said, I've got a headache. 00:03:06.440 --> 00:03:10.120 And for some strange reason out of my mouth came the words silver and gold. 00:03:10.120 --> 00:03:11.400 He said, I have a headache. 00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:15.200 Do you have an aspirin or an anacin tablet in your car? 00:03:15.280 --> 00:03:18.840 My response was an acid and aspirin I have none. 00:03:18.840 --> 00:03:20.000 But such as I have, give idea. 00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:22.680 I'm thinking to myself, why are you speaking in old English? 00:03:22.680 --> 00:03:23.680 Speak proper. 00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:26.280 And so I said, Randy, I can pray for you. 00:03:26.280 --> 00:03:31.120 And so I prayed for him and I didn't expect anything to happen. 00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:34.720 I thought in the sweet by and by his headache will go away. 00:03:34.720 --> 00:03:37.880 Instead the guy starts shaking his head and he says, my headache is gone. 00:03:37.880 --> 00:03:38.880 My headache is gone. 00:03:38.880 --> 00:03:44.840 And I think I was as surprised as him because you don't expect things to go away so quickly. 00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:49.160 It says silver and gold have I none but such as I have give I thee in the name of Jesus 00:03:49.160 --> 00:03:50.440 Christ rise up and walk. 00:03:50.440 --> 00:03:54.880 The only thing that you and I have that we can give away is the sun. 00:03:54.880 --> 00:03:56.760 That's all we have to give away. 00:03:56.760 --> 00:03:57.920 But here's the problem. 00:03:57.920 --> 00:04:02.760 You only give away what is precious to you when you love. 00:04:02.760 --> 00:04:06.640 You only give away what is precious to you when you love. 00:04:06.640 --> 00:04:08.480 I love Jesus Christ. 00:04:08.480 --> 00:04:10.080 I love the Holy Spirit. 00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:11.600 I love the Father. 00:04:11.600 --> 00:04:16.280 There's nobody else I like more than the Father. 00:04:16.280 --> 00:04:17.280 But here's the problem. 00:04:17.280 --> 00:04:23.520 I'll never give away something so precious and so important to me unless I love someone 00:04:23.520 --> 00:04:25.400 else. 00:04:25.400 --> 00:04:29.520 You never give away what is precious unless you love. 00:04:29.520 --> 00:04:40.760 And our problem as Christians is we find him so precious that we keep him. 00:04:40.760 --> 00:04:47.000 Jesus Christ is writing John 3, 16 where it says God so loved therefore he gave. 00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:52.520 And our unfortunate predicament is that we do not love enough. 00:04:52.520 --> 00:04:54.200 Who are we supposed to love? 00:04:54.200 --> 00:04:58.200 The same thing that he loved like crazy the world. 00:04:58.200 --> 00:05:01.720 And yet we are the guys who isolate ourselves saying we are Christians, we are the church. 00:05:01.720 --> 00:05:04.240 We got to stay separate from the world. 00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:08.080 Hey, rotting meat needs salt. 00:05:08.080 --> 00:05:12.640 It preserves it. 00:05:12.640 --> 00:05:15.920 And so here's the thing. 00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:18.560 God so loved that he gave his son. 00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:22.880 Therefore it is required of me to love to a point where I give away the son. 00:05:22.880 --> 00:05:26.880 If I do not love the world, I will not give away the son. 00:05:26.880 --> 00:05:31.360 I'll keep him in the church and that's it. 00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:32.880 So here's the thing then. 00:05:32.880 --> 00:05:39.320 We must, we must decide that we will build this church only for the world. 00:05:39.320 --> 00:05:41.800 We are not building this church so we can have worship services. 00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:44.280 We are not building this church so that we can have fellowship. 00:05:44.280 --> 00:05:46.620 We are not building this church so that we can get stronger. 00:05:46.620 --> 00:05:48.320 You cannot get stronger than this. 00:05:48.320 --> 00:05:49.320 You get stronger than this. 00:05:49.320 --> 00:05:51.960 It goes into fat. 00:05:51.960 --> 00:05:53.560 You can only get fatter from here on. 00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:57.840 You cannot get stronger because you've got all the strength you need. 00:05:57.840 --> 00:06:02.360 What we need to do now is get to a place where we build this church only for the world. 00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:05.780 What do you mean build this church only for the world some project some mission? 00:06:05.780 --> 00:06:11.260 No, we build ourselves and we give it away because the only thing that we have to give away is the son 00:06:11.980 --> 00:06:17.060 He is precious to you. But if he is precious to you, the only way he is going to be given away 00:06:17.060 --> 00:06:19.060 Is if you love the world more 00:06:19.940 --> 00:06:22.980 And so I would suggest to you that we have a few things 00:06:23.620 --> 00:06:28.740 Changed in our prayer life. One of them is that I'll build a church for the world build 00:06:29.580 --> 00:06:31.380 the church 00:06:31.400 --> 00:06:33.400 for the world 00:06:37.120 --> 00:06:39.120 That's one two 00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:44.840 From now on every day being to ask God God is saying ask me 00:06:46.080 --> 00:06:48.080 for love for 00:06:49.480 --> 00:06:51.480 the world 00:06:51.560 --> 00:06:55.080 Every morning being asking father. Can you give me love for the world? 00:06:55.080 --> 00:06:59.040 And how will it look you'll begin to notice people you'll begin to notice things 00:06:59.060 --> 00:07:04.980 You'll begin to have this urge to go up and speak you will begin to have a boldness that comes over you 00:07:05.140 --> 00:07:11.020 You'll begin to know the one that needs even though he's not expressed his need. You'll begin to know the one who 00:07:11.980 --> 00:07:15.900 Is right to be plucked even though she hasn't said anything 00:07:16.300 --> 00:07:20.700 That's what begins to happen when you ask the Lord to give you a love for the world 00:07:20.700 --> 00:07:25.900 Just like he does because I will not give away what is precious to me unless I love 00:07:29.820 --> 00:07:35.780 Here's the other thing guys to give God is saying to give my son away to give my son away 00:07:36.380 --> 00:07:39.500 You have to give to give my son away 00:07:40.420 --> 00:07:42.420 To give my son away 00:07:46.060 --> 00:07:49.200 You have to give up 00:07:50.940 --> 00:07:54.740 Big word self preservation 00:07:54.960 --> 00:07:56.960 To 00:07:58.000 --> 00:08:00.880 Give my son away you have to give up self preservation 00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:08.040 And alongside self preservation you have to give up your dignity because you can't give up the Sun without giving up your dignity 00:08:08.880 --> 00:08:12.160 You cannot give the Sun away without giving up your dignity 00:08:13.240 --> 00:08:15.240 He had to give up his dignity 00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:21.240 We're talking about the Son of God. We're talking about the one who created the world hanging naked on a cross 00:08:21.580 --> 00:08:23.580 It's humiliating 00:08:24.580 --> 00:08:30.260 He was paraded naked through the street. We just put a cloth on him in the movies so that he has some semblance of dignity 00:08:30.260 --> 00:08:32.260 He had none 00:08:37.180 --> 00:08:43.020 So it's not possible to give the Sun away Jacob cannot give the Sun away till Jacob decides that he's going to give up self-preservation 00:08:43.020 --> 00:08:45.020 And he's going to give up his dignity 00:08:46.020 --> 00:08:49.460 And both are things we hold on to so tightly so tightly 00:08:49.600 --> 00:08:51.600 I 00:08:53.960 --> 00:08:56.320 Cannot give him away if I don't give up those two things 00:08:56.960 --> 00:08:58.960 Here's the problem guys 00:08:59.080 --> 00:09:01.080 Jesus still lives, but he lives in me 00:09:01.520 --> 00:09:05.360 Therefore if I have to give him I have to give him up through this veil of flesh 00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:09.680 I have to lose my dignity. I have to lose self-preservation if I want to give him away 00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:14.000 Any questions any thoughts 00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:24.520 Self preservation seeks one's comfort first self preservation seeks to 00:09:25.160 --> 00:09:30.160 Solidify one's dignity reputation safety first self preservation chooses 00:09:31.840 --> 00:09:36.520 To think that God would not ask me to give this up for his sake self preservation 00:09:38.840 --> 00:09:42.800 Seeks to keep oneself safe at the risk of someone else not being safe 00:09:50.460 --> 00:09:53.880 You know when that couple that I showed you in Varanasi 00:09:54.680 --> 00:10:00.960 When someone when the law told them to leave South India where they were very doing very well as pastors and go to 00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:03.200 the Mecca of Hinduism 00:10:03.360 --> 00:10:05.360 Sonar oxymoron 00:10:05.920 --> 00:10:10.720 They decided okay, they'll pack up and leave and they had a six month old baby 00:10:10.720 --> 00:10:15.520 I take the baby and go people are telling them this is a really bad idea. Let your child grow up 00:10:16.460 --> 00:10:20.860 And then perhaps you can think of it but very clearly got to go they had about 00:10:21.220 --> 00:10:25.940 Hundred bucks in their pockets they put take the hundred bucks and they go here's the problem. They don't speak the language 00:10:27.460 --> 00:10:30.180 It's a completely different language. It's like French and English 00:10:31.580 --> 00:10:34.140 They know words like we and that's about it 00:10:35.220 --> 00:10:41.300 And so they go up and now they need a place to stay they finally find someone who gives them a place to stay 00:10:41.660 --> 00:10:44.820 For three four days, they don't eat the child doesn't eat 00:10:45.580 --> 00:10:50.500 You would think that is just heinous and how can you do something there like this to your child? 00:10:50.500 --> 00:10:53.540 But they knew God had told them he'd take care of them. So they kept trusting 00:10:55.860 --> 00:10:58.580 God tells him tells a guy listen 00:10:58.940 --> 00:11:04.340 This is a city where devotees come three times a year and they do a circle of the city 00:11:04.340 --> 00:11:06.660 It's about 20 kilometers around the city 00:11:07.380 --> 00:11:10.580 So God tells him you do a Jericho walk around the city 00:11:10.720 --> 00:11:16.560 And so the wife with a six-month-old and the husband they start walking around the city 20 kilometers man 00:11:16.720 --> 00:11:20.360 Sometimes it would take them three days to cover it and they'd go around it 00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:24.120 Did it six times quietly the seventh time they started singing and doing it 00:11:25.760 --> 00:11:30.160 Went around the city took them almost a month and a half to finish the seven rounds 00:11:31.160 --> 00:11:33.160 and then the meter guy 00:11:33.580 --> 00:11:45.580 And a guy has a sickness that has been continuing for years on end every time he takes a medicine the sickness ends as soon as the medicine wears out he gets sick again has been going on for three years 00:11:47.380 --> 00:11:53.420 Very specifically told to go to him. They go meet him and they begin to tell him about Jesus in broken language 00:11:53.420 --> 00:11:55.220 They can hardly get it across 00:11:55.220 --> 00:12:01.420 All they keep saying is Jesus heals Jesus saves in the language that they know the guy asked for healing 00:12:02.120 --> 00:12:04.560 They pray for him. He gets instantly healed 00:12:07.400 --> 00:12:10.280 Story after story after story I spent two days two days 00:12:10.280 --> 00:12:14.800 I spent more time with the people in the church than with the pastor because I wanted to hear their stories 00:12:19.400 --> 00:12:22.940 He brings 40 people in his family to the church 00:12:25.960 --> 00:12:31.160 They get a translator they begin to speak in English and it's translated into Hindi 00:12:31.420 --> 00:12:41.160 They must be an end to self-preservation and dignity in our lives if the Sun has to be given away 00:12:46.920 --> 00:12:52.640 It's an extreme cost we have a we have an extreme King there's nothing moderate about it 00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:55.360 Nothing balanced about him 00:12:55.560 --> 00:13:01.040 We should spit on balanced Christianity. I know I'm coming across very aggressive right now 00:13:01.040 --> 00:13:03.040 But we need to spit on 00:13:04.280 --> 00:13:09.220 Balanced Christianity because it has no place in the kingdom. It's a counterfeit 00:13:17.680 --> 00:13:20.440 Any questions any pushback any disagreements 00:13:20.440 --> 00:13:30.120 Balanced Christianity is one that says no we need to follow Jesus and yes we should worship him, but we shouldn't 00:13:32.200 --> 00:13:36.800 Step into people's space and we shouldn't think that he'll speak to us 00:13:36.800 --> 00:13:43.400 We shouldn't believe that he'll heal his sovereign. We use the sovereignty as a mask to hide behind 00:13:43.400 --> 00:13:47.080 He's sovereign we use the sovereignty as a mask to hide behind 00:13:47.560 --> 00:13:54.160 It's it's it's taming the Lion of Judah. It is taming the Lion of Judah 00:13:54.880 --> 00:13:56.880 very becomes 00:13:57.440 --> 00:13:59.440 Where he's no longer? 00:13:59.440 --> 00:14:02.920 Jesus Christ the only one who can save he's not no longer 00:14:03.160 --> 00:14:09.160 Jesus Christ the only one who'll ask you to do stuff like go around the city six times quietly in the seventh time 00:14:09.160 --> 00:14:13.480 He's no longer the one who will say I don't need you to go to your work today 00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:19.440 I need you instead to take a day off and lose your salary and go and sit at this McDonald's because at 00:14:19.800 --> 00:14:23.400 11 a.m. I'm gonna send someone there and you're supposed to talk to him 00:14:24.120 --> 00:14:27.800 This kind of Christianity sounds absurd, but it is what the book of Acts is made up of 00:14:30.120 --> 00:14:35.560 This is what the book of Acts is made up of there's a reason we call ourselves acts 29 time to live up to that name 00:14:35.560 --> 00:14:39.560 Where's Jeevan? Shout amen occasionally 00:14:41.560 --> 00:14:43.560 Yeah, there you go 00:14:47.720 --> 00:14:49.720 Any questions guys 00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:54.360 Okay 00:14:57.720 --> 00:14:59.720 I 00:14:59.960 --> 00:15:03.960 Could tell you so many stories another guy called Ramesh 00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:07.960 He sat next to me and he told me how he was a guy who was a local 00:15:09.000 --> 00:15:14.760 Witch doctor he said I didn't do harm to anybody, but when people come to me I would begin to 00:15:15.400 --> 00:15:21.480 Help them. He said all the witchery I did was only helpful. I never did anything to affect people and 00:15:22.040 --> 00:15:24.040 So he said and then one day 00:15:24.120 --> 00:15:28.600 My wife falls sick her belly begins to bloat I take her to many doctors 00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:33.080 I take her to multiple witch doctors nothing happens. I begin to pray nothing happens 00:15:33.080 --> 00:15:37.560 I invoke every spirit. I know to help her nothing happens. So finally 00:15:37.560 --> 00:15:43.720 I don't know what to do and I tell God the gods that he used to worship that you are useless because you do nothing for me 00:15:44.280 --> 00:15:47.720 And then someone comes and tells them that there's a church and a pastor 00:15:47.960 --> 00:15:49.960 And so he takes his wife there and 00:15:51.080 --> 00:15:55.720 Goes there and the pastor just prays a simple prayer and he said nothing happened 00:15:55.720 --> 00:16:01.320 I took her home and I told God you heal my wife and if this is true and this is you 00:16:01.320 --> 00:16:04.760 I'll serve you for the rest of my life. He said about nine o'clock in the night 00:16:04.760 --> 00:16:09.320 We went back home by midnight her stomach starts going down in terms of the swelling 00:16:09.320 --> 00:16:13.320 And I told him I'm going to go and pray for her and he said I'm going to go and pray for her 00:16:13.400 --> 00:16:19.400 And then back home by midnight her stomach starts going down in terms of the swelling by about 12 30 or one in the night 00:16:19.560 --> 00:16:24.040 He said she gets completely healed after three years or two and a half years of great pain 00:16:24.280 --> 00:16:29.000 And of every god and spirit you could appeal to and he said how does that happen in three hours? 00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:34.680 And he said that day I decided that I will only follow Jesus turn my back on my gods turn my back on witchcraft 00:16:34.840 --> 00:16:40.680 And walked away and the guy said so many people in my family now belong to Jesus. This is a recurring story guys 00:16:41.560 --> 00:16:46.200 So you think god is any different here you think the spirits are not present here that all the spirits have gone to india 00:16:46.440 --> 00:16:48.440 They're in the western world as much in the eastern world 00:17:01.320 --> 00:17:07.960 In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth guys in that name there is the nature of god in that name 00:17:08.440 --> 00:17:10.440 There is the nature of god 00:17:11.240 --> 00:17:15.400 So when he says in the name of Jesus Christ in Nazareth what he's saying is listen 00:17:15.640 --> 00:17:18.440 I'm talking about a name that reveals the nature of god 00:17:19.080 --> 00:17:21.080 Reveals the nature of god 00:17:23.320 --> 00:17:25.720 I'm talking about a name hebrews 1 3 talks about it 00:17:27.560 --> 00:17:31.720 He he's talking about a name that is the will of god 00:17:32.200 --> 00:17:34.200 God 00:17:35.080 --> 00:17:40.840 1st corinthians 1 20 talks about that that every promise of god is yes and amen in Jesus Christ 00:17:41.320 --> 00:17:43.320 He's talking about a name 00:17:43.320 --> 00:17:45.800 That has all the power of god 00:17:51.240 --> 00:17:54.200 And he's talking about a name axe chapter 3 16 talks about it 00:17:56.760 --> 00:17:58.760 And he's talking about a name 00:17:58.840 --> 00:18:00.840 That has salvation in it 00:18:01.560 --> 00:18:06.600 Or sozo in it and when we use the word salvation remember it means rescue 00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:09.400 And it means rescue from 00:18:09.560 --> 00:18:10.600 sin 00:18:10.600 --> 00:18:12.600 from the penalty of sin 00:18:13.480 --> 00:18:15.480 From sickness 00:18:16.600 --> 00:18:18.760 From physical danger 00:18:23.400 --> 00:18:25.400 From false doctrine 00:18:25.480 --> 00:18:27.480 From 00:18:28.760 --> 00:18:30.760 Salvation 00:18:31.880 --> 00:18:33.880 Sozo is basically a rescue 00:18:34.440 --> 00:18:38.280 Rescue when we talk about salvation, we're not just talking about being born again 00:18:38.520 --> 00:18:43.800 We're talking about god as a rescuer god as a rescuer god who rescues me from sin 00:18:44.120 --> 00:18:48.920 God who rescues me from the penalty of sin with his death god who rescues me from physical danger 00:18:49.240 --> 00:18:53.880 God who rescues me from sickness god who rescues me from false doctrine 00:18:54.200 --> 00:18:56.200 God who rescues me from satan 00:18:59.160 --> 00:19:05.000 This is what the word salvation means and therefore when it says that there is only one name under heaven and earth 00:19:05.640 --> 00:19:12.040 Through which salvation can come. Yes. It's talking about our sins being undone, but it's also talking about 00:19:12.920 --> 00:19:14.280 this whole 00:19:14.280 --> 00:19:17.900 Package that jesus offers and you see it in psalm 91 00:19:18.540 --> 00:19:24.140 In the name of jesus christ 00:19:24.860 --> 00:19:29.660 Is actually talking about hey jacob whenever you use in the name of jesus christ 00:19:29.900 --> 00:19:33.820 You are saying that this is the nature of the son of the living god 00:19:34.220 --> 00:19:37.660 You are saying this is the promise that he will back up 00:19:38.220 --> 00:19:41.260 Because he is the son of god and his word is faithful 00:19:41.580 --> 00:19:45.180 You are saying that there is no other power on the face of the earth 00:19:45.340 --> 00:19:50.300 But the power that belongs to christ and he's the one who gave any power to anybody that exists 00:19:50.620 --> 00:19:54.460 This is the power. This is what i'm saying when I say in the name of jesus christ 00:19:54.700 --> 00:19:59.180 When I say in the name of jesus christ i'm talking about what he can rescue you from guys 00:19:59.420 --> 00:20:05.500 We got to marinate in this so that every time we use the name of jesus christ. We understand what we're saying 00:20:06.060 --> 00:20:08.060 in the name of jesus christ 00:20:08.700 --> 00:20:11.580 Go over it again and again and again in the name of jesus christ 00:20:11.740 --> 00:20:14.860 It reveals the nature of the father in the name of jesus christ 00:20:15.020 --> 00:20:19.740 It reveals the power the only one who has power in the universe in the name of jesus christ 00:20:19.980 --> 00:20:24.140 It is his promise and he'll be faithful to his word in the name of jesus christ 00:20:24.380 --> 00:20:28.220 He is a rescuer and look at the stuff that he rescued me out of 00:20:28.620 --> 00:20:32.220 That is the name that I bring to you and that is the name that I now speak 00:20:32.700 --> 00:20:36.300 We begin to think like this. See and as we begin to think we inhabit 00:20:36.700 --> 00:20:43.280 You only inhabit what you think and when you begin to think like god imagine what you're inhabiting 00:20:53.180 --> 00:20:59.340 Then he says in the name of jesus christ imagine i mean where did these guys get the audacity to say walk man 00:21:01.660 --> 00:21:03.660 Jesus has just died and gone 00:21:03.660 --> 00:21:09.820 Now at least when he was around you know that you had a backup plan if you didn't if you failed at it 00:21:10.060 --> 00:21:14.060 Jesus would help because that happened many times they try to cast out a demon from a boy 00:21:14.780 --> 00:21:20.380 Nothing happens when jesus came down the mountain. He cast it out and sure they'd get rebuttal you of little faith 00:21:21.100 --> 00:21:23.660 But you had a backup now jesus is gone 00:21:27.420 --> 00:21:29.980 In the name of jesus christ walk so 00:21:34.460 --> 00:21:38.060 You see this again guys remember it's always the father who heals 00:21:38.700 --> 00:21:45.260 In the name of it's always the father who heals through jesus in act chapter four verse 30 00:21:45.980 --> 00:21:47.980 After they were threatened 00:21:47.980 --> 00:21:50.540 Listen to their prayer from 4 28 onwards 00:21:51.180 --> 00:21:56.060 Oh god, you have seen the threats now. Give us the boldness and stretch out your hand 00:21:57.020 --> 00:22:02.060 In signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant jesus 00:22:02.060 --> 00:22:04.860 So again, there's this idea of the father healing 00:22:05.660 --> 00:22:11.260 Through jesus christ the father healing through jesus christ by the presence of the holy spirit who's there 00:22:11.900 --> 00:22:18.060 And so when i say in the name of jesus christ walk what i'm saying then to haiti is hey haiti 00:22:18.700 --> 00:22:20.700 I am speaking on behalf 00:22:21.100 --> 00:22:22.300 of god 00:22:22.300 --> 00:22:28.060 Whose will and nature it is to now rescue you from your lameness and help you to walk 00:22:28.060 --> 00:22:33.660 Your lameness and help you to walk and as I say walk it is the hand of god 00:22:33.980 --> 00:22:37.740 That is going to give you the strength to walk. It has nothing to do with me 00:22:38.300 --> 00:22:42.460 Everything rests on jesus and therefore this is what I now speak 00:22:43.580 --> 00:22:45.580 You got to go over this again and again 00:22:45.820 --> 00:22:52.540 Our fear when we pray for people regardless of whether it's a lame or whether it's a simple problem with sorrow is we are not 00:22:53.580 --> 00:22:55.580 Completely convinced that anything will happen 00:22:55.580 --> 00:22:59.820 But that is not in my hands it is in the hands of jesus christ 00:23:01.020 --> 00:23:07.900 So when I say to her in the name of jesus christ walk what i'm saying is it is the father's will and nature 00:23:08.220 --> 00:23:09.740 For you to walk 00:23:09.740 --> 00:23:17.100 So as I speak he will stretch out the hand of his holy servant jesus and will touch you so that you become whole 00:23:17.500 --> 00:23:19.820 I just speak he's the one who acts 00:23:21.820 --> 00:23:23.820 Got to get used to it 00:23:24.460 --> 00:23:29.740 It's so scared of it. Hey hold on to our dignity and our self-preservation got to get used to it 00:23:32.860 --> 00:23:35.020 All of us all of us 00:23:37.100 --> 00:23:39.900 Nobody should have to bring people to the church building man 00:23:43.580 --> 00:23:45.580 Any questions 00:23:48.460 --> 00:23:51.660 So when you look at acts 3 16 it says 00:23:52.540 --> 00:23:54.540 Look at acts 3 16 00:23:57.660 --> 00:23:59.660 It says that 00:23:59.740 --> 00:24:01.740 And his name 00:24:01.740 --> 00:24:05.420 By faith in his name has made this man strong 00:24:05.820 --> 00:24:09.340 Whom you see and know and the faith that is through jesus 00:24:09.980 --> 00:24:15.740 Has given him perfect health in the presence of you all let me read that again from the anemone 00:24:16.620 --> 00:24:18.620 By faith in the name of jesus 00:24:19.020 --> 00:24:22.940 This man whom you see and know was made strong 00:24:23.260 --> 00:24:31.260 It is jesus's name and the faith that comes through him that has given this complete healing to him as you can all see 00:24:31.500 --> 00:24:33.500 So the question is whose faith are they talking about? 00:24:36.460 --> 00:24:39.580 Whose faith is it the man's faith? 00:24:41.260 --> 00:24:44.220 Whose faith are they talking about look at it again? 00:24:46.540 --> 00:24:48.460 Acts 3 16 00:24:48.460 --> 00:24:52.940 By faith in the name of jesus this man whom you see and know was made strong 00:24:53.180 --> 00:24:59.180 It is jesus's name and the faith that comes through him that has given this complete healing to him as you can all see 00:24:59.340 --> 00:25:01.340 Whose faith? 00:25:02.380 --> 00:25:09.500 Faith in the name of jesus, but whose faith is it peter's faith? Is it the lame man's faith? Whose faith? 00:25:13.580 --> 00:25:16.860 Jesus christ is the one we put our faith in but who is exerting faith here? 00:25:17.660 --> 00:25:19.660 Is it the lame man or peter? 00:25:20.460 --> 00:25:22.460 Yeah, it's peter the lame 00:25:25.260 --> 00:25:32.700 Because the bible says that the guy was looking for arms and where anybody showed faith the writer would usually say and they had faith 00:25:34.140 --> 00:25:36.700 So rather than read into what is not written 00:25:36.780 --> 00:25:41.340 Let's just stick with what's written because there are places where it says someone exerted faith 00:25:41.500 --> 00:25:43.740 So in this case it was peter's faith guys 00:25:44.300 --> 00:25:46.940 Peter had faith for the man to be healed 00:25:47.580 --> 00:25:51.980 And therefore peter is the one who reaches out and holds his hand and pulls him up 00:25:53.100 --> 00:25:58.300 Peter had faith in jesus for the man to be healed now. Let's look at acts 14 8 acts 14 8 00:25:58.700 --> 00:26:01.340 There's another lame man in acts 14 8 00:26:04.060 --> 00:26:06.060 In acts 14 8 there's another lame man 00:26:07.420 --> 00:26:09.420 And look at what happens in acts 14 8 00:26:10.060 --> 00:26:15.180 Paul this time and paul seeing that the man had faith to be healed 00:26:16.380 --> 00:26:18.620 Says to him arise take up your bed and walk 00:26:19.740 --> 00:26:26.460 You got both guys. There are times when someone else before you does not have the faith and god will give you the faith 00:26:27.180 --> 00:26:29.020 for the person 00:26:29.020 --> 00:26:33.500 By the way, peter had passed this man many times. It wasn't the first time that he's seeing this guy 00:26:33.740 --> 00:26:35.740 He used to go for prayer every day 00:26:36.860 --> 00:26:38.860 Why is it that this never happened before? 00:26:40.300 --> 00:26:46.060 In act chapter 3 it says and through the faith that jesus gave peter peter looked at the man and said 00:26:47.500 --> 00:26:49.500 Arise and walk 00:26:50.300 --> 00:26:55.180 Sometimes you have to be conscious of the fact that you may have gone past a situation 00:26:55.420 --> 00:27:01.660 Four or five six times and then there'll be a day when jesus will give you the faith required for that person to be 00:27:02.060 --> 00:27:04.060 recovered rescued healed whatever 00:27:05.020 --> 00:27:09.100 Because it's specific to a certain day or a certain time in a person's life 00:27:09.420 --> 00:27:15.260 There's that and then there's the other side of the equation where sometimes people have the faith to be healed in acts 14 00:27:15.260 --> 00:27:18.140 The person had faith to be healed and so paul just says to him 00:27:19.500 --> 00:27:23.420 Take up your bed and walk and if you notice in acts 14 the man springs up himself 00:27:23.500 --> 00:27:25.740 He doesn't need help to be pulled up both were lame 00:27:28.540 --> 00:27:31.420 There is a need to be very conscious of people around us say 00:27:32.700 --> 00:27:35.740 So, you know when you know how you know what? 00:27:39.900 --> 00:27:47.660 And then there's a third way and we'll talk about that in it so the first way is you exert the faith 00:27:49.020 --> 00:27:53.740 You exert the faith because god shows you something god supplies you the faith for the moment 00:27:54.940 --> 00:27:56.940 It's almost like a gift of faith sometimes 00:27:56.940 --> 00:28:04.700 But god supplies the faith required for that moment for a man to be fully healed or fully recovered fully rescued fully comforted 00:28:05.580 --> 00:28:07.580 fully put back fully delivered 00:28:08.300 --> 00:28:15.740 Fully saved doesn't matter what there are times when you will have passed that way a million times and then it's a million and one time 00:28:16.140 --> 00:28:21.820 And god says I will now supply you the faith to do what is required for this man because this is the right time 00:28:21.900 --> 00:28:28.780 So that's one instance then the second instance is where you meet somebody and as you're speaking and telling them about jesus 00:28:29.020 --> 00:28:32.700 The person has what it takes within them faith rises within them 00:28:35.420 --> 00:28:37.420 But you and I have to be conscious of it 00:28:38.300 --> 00:28:41.020 It's fascinating paul is walking and he looks at him and he says 00:28:41.660 --> 00:28:46.460 Paul saw him and he said this man has the faith to get up and be healed 00:28:46.620 --> 00:28:53.100 He he saw faith in that man jesus saw it many times jesus would go places and he would realize that there was faith 00:28:53.180 --> 00:28:55.180 Present and he knew things would happen 00:28:57.900 --> 00:29:04.300 To be conscious of the fact that there are people who have faith and faith comes by hearing so it requires that I speak about jesus 00:29:04.300 --> 00:29:06.460 Because tell them who he is 00:29:07.740 --> 00:29:12.700 Hey, remember one thing john 3 16 doesn't say god so loved the world that he gave his only son 00:29:12.940 --> 00:29:15.980 So that none may be sick and all shall have physical life 00:29:18.700 --> 00:29:20.460 Very often in 00:29:20.460 --> 00:29:22.140 maybe 00:29:22.140 --> 00:29:29.100 Hyper baptist and penicostal and charismatic circles. We make healing the main thing and we forget that a man can be healed and go to hell 00:29:31.180 --> 00:29:33.740 Healed in hell is no big deal. It's as bad 00:29:34.940 --> 00:29:36.940 You got everything intact 00:29:38.060 --> 00:29:41.260 But the word says god so loved the world that he gave his only son 00:29:43.740 --> 00:29:50.300 That none may perish so I need to present jesus as the savior and his lord and as one who does 00:29:51.820 --> 00:29:57.100 Is also is of surpassing worth that none can compare must present jesus like that 00:29:58.780 --> 00:30:03.660 And then that creates faith in people's heart to respond and we must open our mouths and do that 00:30:05.180 --> 00:30:07.180 If I call emmanuel up right now 00:30:08.140 --> 00:30:10.140 If I call emmanuel up right now 00:30:11.980 --> 00:30:13.980 If I call emmanuel up right now 00:30:16.380 --> 00:30:18.380 And I put him on the spot 00:30:19.100 --> 00:30:24.540 And I told him that we were all pagans and he needs to tell us something about jesus. What would he say? 00:30:29.580 --> 00:30:31.580 I would say that jesus is great 00:30:35.100 --> 00:30:40.220 Um, jesus is wonderful is excellent and uh 00:30:43.980 --> 00:30:47.180 Jesus is greater than the god you speak about 00:30:51.500 --> 00:30:54.620 It's not great things in my life a lot 00:30:54.700 --> 00:30:56.700 What 00:31:08.060 --> 00:31:13.020 But just wait this is exactly what happens to us we are put on the spot and we don't know what to say 00:31:13.340 --> 00:31:15.340 We know everything in here 00:31:15.740 --> 00:31:17.980 But we don't know what to say when we are put on the spot 00:31:18.140 --> 00:31:23.660 You think he doesn't know that jesus christ is the savior of the world you think he doesn't know christ died on a cross for his sins 00:31:24.140 --> 00:31:26.140 You think he doesn't know that he rose again 00:31:26.620 --> 00:31:28.620 He's born again 00:31:31.340 --> 00:31:38.160 But we end up with words like he's wonderful he's powerful he's great but so is my god or my gods 00:31:43.100 --> 00:31:47.500 We need to be able to phrase so quickly things for people, eh? 00:31:49.020 --> 00:31:50.780 In act three 00:31:50.780 --> 00:31:56.140 Peter is speaking to a jewish audience and he begins to talk about the one from nazareth which would make no sense 00:31:56.540 --> 00:32:02.620 To the gentiles in act chapter 14 paul is speaking to a group of gentiles and he begins to talk to them 00:32:02.940 --> 00:32:10.300 About a god who created the earth and the heavens and who sends rain and who now needs people to worship him and not idols 00:32:10.860 --> 00:32:16.780 The context changes, but I must be able to phrase and may I suggest to you that we do not know how to phrase? 00:32:17.100 --> 00:32:18.220 I 00:32:18.220 --> 00:32:23.100 Could put anyone else on the spot and we'd have come up with the same words. He's wonderful. He's great 00:32:23.100 --> 00:32:27.420 He's powerful and all of it is true and it reflects what he really thinks and believes 00:32:27.420 --> 00:32:32.140 I don't know why I picked on you. I should have picked on someone else. That's not as nice as you 00:32:33.260 --> 00:32:34.380 Yeah 00:32:34.380 --> 00:32:36.380 He forgives me 00:32:37.260 --> 00:32:40.940 Thanks, man, I'll call you up again in two minutes. You better have it right 00:32:47.740 --> 00:32:48.940 Thanks, oh 00:32:48.940 --> 00:32:52.060 It's exactly where we are at man all of us 00:32:53.020 --> 00:32:55.020 It's exactly where we are at 00:32:55.740 --> 00:32:57.900 I pray god that we phrase it at home 00:32:58.700 --> 00:33:03.740 Because guys if this teaching is relevant in terms of the timing of god for this church 00:33:03.740 --> 00:33:07.260 Then we are going to be put into situations where we will have to phrase things right 00:33:11.580 --> 00:33:13.580 Not when you're ready and going to wall-e 00:33:14.540 --> 00:33:18.060 When you're half sleepy and not interested in god, that's when it happens 00:33:21.260 --> 00:33:23.260 Okay, the third option is 00:33:24.540 --> 00:33:29.020 Acts 10 38 acts 10 38. I know you all know it 00:33:34.300 --> 00:33:36.300 Acts 10 38 00:33:37.580 --> 00:33:39.580 And it says 00:33:40.380 --> 00:33:45.260 And god anointed encourage years of Nasrid and god anointed Jesus of Nasrid 00:33:46.220 --> 00:33:48.220 with the Holy Spirit and power 00:33:49.260 --> 00:33:54.700 and god anointed Jesus of Nasrid with the Holy Spirit and power and he went about doing good 00:33:56.460 --> 00:33:59.620 And healing all who were under the power of the devil 00:33:59.940 --> 00:34:07.340 accept it 10 28 and god anointed Jesus of Nasrid with the Holy Spirit and with power and he went about doing good 00:34:07.340 --> 00:34:18.020 and healing all who are under the power of the devil because God was with him. So here are the 00:34:18.020 --> 00:34:37.660 questions. Has God anointed you? Answer 2 Corinthians 1, 21, 22. Has God anointed you? 00:34:37.660 --> 00:35:00.420 Has God anointed you? 2 Corinthians 1, 21, 22. Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm 00:35:00.420 --> 00:35:07.140 in Christ. He anointed us, set a seal of ownership on us, put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, 00:35:07.140 --> 00:35:12.180 guaranteeing what is to come. One of the things that is to come is not just heaven. One of the 00:35:12.180 --> 00:35:16.220 things that is to come that we miss out as Christians is there is this thing called the 00:35:16.220 --> 00:35:20.660 kingdom that is going to come, the rule of the king that is going to come. One of the things we 00:35:20.660 --> 00:35:27.940 are supposed to do is give people a taste of what that kingdom looks like already. We can't give 00:35:27.940 --> 00:35:31.780 them a taste of heaven because we don't know what heaven looks like but we certainly can give them 00:35:31.780 --> 00:35:37.740 a taste of the kingdom because we do taste the kingdom. This kind of brotherhood, sisterhood, 00:35:37.740 --> 00:35:44.780 fellowship, nobody else has. The presence of a living God in your presence, nobody else has. 00:35:44.780 --> 00:35:51.020 People healed. If I were to give you the mic, there would be at least 40 stories of healing in 00:35:51.020 --> 00:35:58.900 the next two hours in your life. Comfort, surety of eternity, nobody has as it's a taste of the 00:35:58.900 --> 00:36:04.660 kingdom that is to come and the question is has God anointed you and the answer is absolutely 00:36:04.660 --> 00:36:16.460 he's anointed each one that is here. Second question, with whom has he anointed me? With whom has he 00:36:16.460 --> 00:36:28.300 anointed me? With whom has he anointed me? I know it's a dull question but he has anointed me with 00:36:28.300 --> 00:36:53.300 the Holy Spirit and with Paul. Acts chapter 1 verse 8, who has he anointed me with? He has anointed 00:36:53.300 --> 00:36:58.140 me with the Holy Spirit and with power. At this present moment as you sit there and I'm standing 00:36:58.140 --> 00:37:03.860 and walking and talking, he has anointed as in he has poured, as in he has smeared, as in he has 00:37:03.860 --> 00:37:10.740 filled, as in he has immersed me with the Holy Spirit and with power in the Holy Spirit and with 00:37:10.740 --> 00:37:32.020 power. Third question, what is the power for? What is the power for? Answer, to do good, to go around 00:37:32.020 --> 00:37:50.260 doing good, to heal those harassed, bound under the power of the devil. 00:37:50.260 --> 00:38:07.540 Where does it say that? Mark 16, 16 to 18. And then the last question, again a dull question, 00:38:07.540 --> 00:38:27.460 is, I keep thinking the step is here, is God with me? Is God with me? Hey go over this again and again 00:38:27.460 --> 00:38:34.660 till it becomes your matrix. Go over it again and again till it becomes your matrix. These are the 00:38:34.660 --> 00:38:40.660 three methods we need to employ. Sometimes we have to use faith. Acts chapter 3 verse 6, if I don't 00:38:40.660 --> 00:38:45.700 have the faith for it, God says I will give you the faith. The faith that comes through Jesus. Peter 00:38:45.700 --> 00:38:51.860 exerts a faith, the man walks. Sometimes it's not your faith, it's a faith that arises in a man's 00:38:51.860 --> 00:38:57.540 heart because of what he hears. Therefore I need to speak about Jesus. Once I tell him who Jesus is, 00:38:57.540 --> 00:39:03.380 then faith begins to arise. As faith begins to arise, it is his faith that causes the man to be 00:39:03.380 --> 00:39:09.380 rescued and to walk. And then there's finally Acts chapter 10, 38 where it says, but Jacob even if 00:39:09.380 --> 00:39:15.780 those two were not present, you need to be aware that I have anointed you with the Holy Spirit and 00:39:15.780 --> 00:39:22.260 with power. I have anointed you for one reason alone, so that you can go around, not sit, go around. 00:39:22.260 --> 00:39:29.620 Doing what? Doing good. And doing what else? Doing good and setting people who have been oppressed 00:39:29.620 --> 00:39:35.540 are under the power of the devil to have them healed. This is why I anointed you with power. 00:39:36.580 --> 00:39:43.860 These are the three methods that we have to use going forward, every one of us. Any questions? 00:39:48.820 --> 00:39:56.180 How do we know that someone is under the power of the devil? Good question. One, their behavior. 00:39:56.180 --> 00:40:04.980 Two, their response to the name of Jesus. Three, consistent patterns of sometimes sickness, 00:40:04.980 --> 00:40:14.100 habits, addictions, trauma, emotions that rage that are beyond your control. But even though we 00:40:14.100 --> 00:40:24.340 are humans, we cannot control. Four, because of years of worshiping other gods, they have a certain 00:40:24.420 --> 00:40:30.980 dominance over the way you function, the way you think. So if you look in the New Testament, 00:40:30.980 --> 00:40:40.820 you'll find these telltale signs always followed those that were in any which way oppressed, harmed 00:40:40.820 --> 00:40:49.460 under the power of the enemy. Because God never intended sickness for us, never. Never intended 00:40:49.780 --> 00:40:54.020 sickness for us. Never intended sickness for us. When he made us, he never intended sickness for 00:40:54.020 --> 00:41:01.220 us. Just as when you have a child, you never intend the child to be harmed. All sickness came 00:41:01.220 --> 00:41:08.820 after the fall because of sin. That's how it entered the world. I'm not saying we sin, therefore 00:41:08.820 --> 00:41:13.460 we are sick. I'm just saying sickness came because of sin. And now God is saying, hey, can I rescue? 00:41:13.460 --> 00:41:18.340 Can I rescue? Can I rescue? Oh, you want rescue? Great. I got someone called Betty that I can send 00:41:18.820 --> 00:41:23.300 to her. So he wakes up Betty and sends her. Betty says, I don't have faith. Jesus says, 00:41:23.300 --> 00:41:29.300 I'll supply the faith. Betty goes and starts talking about Jesus. Faith arises. The person 00:41:29.300 --> 00:41:34.580 begins to recover. Other times, Betty does not have the faith. The person does not have the faith. 00:41:34.580 --> 00:41:39.700 And Betty remembers Acts 10.38, that the Spirit of God has anointed me just like it did Jesus, 00:41:39.700 --> 00:41:43.700 with the Holy Spirit and with power. And I'm supposed to go out and I'm supposed to do good. 00:41:43.780 --> 00:41:48.660 And I'm supposed to heal everybody who is under the power of the devil. This is common to everyone. 00:41:48.660 --> 00:41:52.980 It doesn't matter which denomination, how old you are as a believer, you can be trained in this. If 00:41:52.980 --> 00:42:00.340 you think like this, we'll inhabit this space. Any questions, guys? I'm done. 00:42:05.780 --> 00:42:12.020 So, Jigav, why is healing so important? Because it draws attention and because it attests to the 00:42:12.020 --> 00:42:17.860 risen Christ. That's why healing is important. It draws people. Acts 3 verse 11, when they saw 00:42:17.860 --> 00:42:29.700 the lame man walk, a crowd gathered. What else? Signs and wonders attest to the risen Christ. 00:42:29.700 --> 00:42:37.540 Signs and wonders attest to the risen Christ. We cannot sterilize the church of these. 00:42:37.540 --> 00:42:42.020 Just because you and I haven't been successful, doesn't mean a truth should be swept under the carpet. 00:42:42.900 --> 00:42:47.700 Come on, man. How long are we going to do this? Just because I haven't found something successful, 00:42:47.700 --> 00:42:56.020 I'm going to sweep it under the carpet. Your batting average goes up as you bat more. 00:42:56.260 --> 00:42:58.500 Your batting average goes up as you bat more. 00:43:05.780 --> 00:43:10.900 It attests to the risen Christ and so it should be a non-negotiable that we as a church must pledge 00:43:10.900 --> 00:43:17.060 not to bypass. It is a non-negotiable that we as a church must pledge not to bypass. That, oh God, 00:43:17.060 --> 00:43:22.900 we will not bypass speaking about you, Jesus, first as Savior and then as Lord. You cannot 00:43:22.900 --> 00:43:28.740 preach him as Lord till you first preach him as Savior. He must save before he can be Lord. 00:43:29.620 --> 00:43:35.140 You can't ask someone, hey, do you want Jesus as Lord? He has to be saved first. I know I've said 00:43:35.140 --> 00:43:40.100 this before, but it's critical. We offer Jesus as Lord to people that have not been saved. 00:43:40.900 --> 00:43:47.220 You have to offer him a Savior first because if one does not need to be saved, then one does not 00:43:47.220 --> 00:43:54.580 need to acknowledge one's sins. This is the hard part in today's culture, right? You got to tell 00:43:54.580 --> 00:43:59.700 her that, hey, you need a Savior. She asks why because you have sinned and therefore you need 00:43:59.700 --> 00:44:05.780 to be saved. She has to be now bankrupt enough, humble enough to acknowledge the need for a Savior. 00:44:05.780 --> 00:44:11.780 Now that she asks to be saved, you present to her the Savior, Jesus Christ. Now he becomes Lord of 00:44:11.780 --> 00:44:16.260 her life, but I can't go up to her and say, hey, do you want to accept Jesus as Lord? Because that 00:44:16.260 --> 00:44:31.780 is easy, man, because you don't have to acknowledge your sin. That's a non-negotiable. We should not 00:44:31.780 --> 00:44:37.300 bypass that in this church that we will present Jesus as one who is Savior and Lord and two, 00:44:37.380 --> 00:44:47.620 we will walk under Acts 10.38.36 and 14.8 saying there's more that we offer than Jesus Christ. We 00:44:47.620 --> 00:44:52.980 give the Son away. We give the Son away. We give the Son away. We give the Son away. 00:44:55.620 --> 00:45:03.700 I'll end with this last line. Years ago when this church started in 2006, I think it older some 00:45:03.700 --> 00:45:08.900 stories I keep repeating. You just have to put it to old age. Bob does that all the time with his 00:45:08.900 --> 00:45:19.700 jokes. There was a lady here called Betty, not this Betty, another Betty. Betty went to an all-night 00:45:19.700 --> 00:45:25.860 prayer meeting in Glad Tidings. There was a guy there by the name of Keith Abraham who was very 00:45:25.860 --> 00:45:30.740 prophetic and he didn't know Acts 29. He didn't know anyone in this church. Betty goes up and 00:45:31.220 --> 00:45:36.180 this guy comes to Betty and says, your church, Acts 29, has wells of healing. 00:45:38.340 --> 00:45:46.100 Wells of healing in this church. I'm saying to you, the time has come to roll away the rock on top 00:45:46.100 --> 00:45:51.220 of those wells, that well, man. Everybody needs to begin to think like this, engage like this. 00:45:51.220 --> 00:45:55.860 We've got to be foolish, man. You've got to be foolish not in the church. You're all very 00:45:55.860 --> 00:46:01.540 foolish in the church. This is a very foolish church but now we've got to be foolish in the 00:46:01.540 --> 00:46:07.940 world. You've got to be foolish in the world. Come back with stories of absolute awkwardness 00:46:07.940 --> 00:46:18.100 and foolishness and failure. That'll be something else. I can see Nick doing it. 00:46:18.180 --> 00:46:26.340 Thank you. Anyways, we'll stop with that. Any questions, guys? 00:46:30.020 --> 00:46:30.520 Yeah. 00:46:32.980 --> 00:46:35.940 I just want to give a quick testimony. I think the... 00:46:40.740 --> 00:46:42.340 I'll try and talk like an Indian. 00:46:48.100 --> 00:46:54.260 We... I think the third reason maybe from my side is why the people that are healed is neither 00:46:54.260 --> 00:47:00.420 did I have the faith, neither the person, but Jesus wanted to show off. I was walking into a 00:47:00.420 --> 00:47:06.020 shop about three years ago to have my cell phone fixed and it was a Muslim owner and I know the 00:47:06.020 --> 00:47:11.940 owner of the shop and I know he's Muslim and his counter is quite high and so I'm standing there 00:47:11.940 --> 00:47:17.140 saying, can I please have my phone fixed? A lady walks in behind me but she's walking like this. 00:47:18.260 --> 00:47:24.020 And she just puts her phone on the counter and she can hardly lift her head and I'm thinking, 00:47:24.820 --> 00:47:31.780 oh no. I mean my first thought is, oh no. I don't want to pray for her. This is a Muslim. It's his 00:47:31.780 --> 00:47:38.980 shop. It's his territory and I can see this lady's in pain. So she's like, just fix my phone please 00:47:38.980 --> 00:47:43.220 and I'm standing there and I'm going and I know Jesus saying pray for her and I go, please Jesus, 00:47:43.220 --> 00:47:49.060 I do not want to pray for her. Not here. Let's do it outside and something just came over me, 00:47:49.060 --> 00:47:56.340 no faith and I said to the lady, what's wrong? She says, I've got a terrible headache but not 00:47:56.340 --> 00:48:02.260 like nice. It's like bent over. I've got a terrible headache and I'm like, well, let's pray. Can I say, 00:48:02.260 --> 00:48:08.020 can I pray for you? She said, yes. I put my hand on her shoulder and now the Muslim owner is standing 00:48:08.020 --> 00:48:15.540 right here looking and I don't want to say Jesus. So I just say, be healed. 00:48:17.220 --> 00:48:19.700 And I step back and I'm thinking, this is not going to work. 00:48:21.060 --> 00:48:26.900 And she says, and I say, is it any better? She goes, there's like a slight relief. Now I'm like, 00:48:26.900 --> 00:48:32.660 what? There's a slight relief and I didn't say Jesus because I'm thinking of the Muslim guy. 00:48:33.860 --> 00:48:37.860 The slight relief gave me so much confidence that I then stood up and said, I need to pray 00:48:37.860 --> 00:48:43.380 for you again. Let's get rid of this headache. So this guy's leaning in and I'm praying and I say, 00:48:44.260 --> 00:48:55.380 in the name of Jesus, be healed. She pops up. She goes, my headache's gone. Like gone. This guy's 00:48:55.380 --> 00:49:02.580 staring and I'm going, I don't know what to do now. And I just like, the miracle is the seed for him. 00:49:03.460 --> 00:49:08.660 She runs out. I didn't even get her name or anything, but Jesus was glorified. 00:49:09.460 --> 00:49:15.700 And I think Jesus wants to show off. And the second one really quickly, Ava, I asked Ava and 00:49:15.700 --> 00:49:23.220 she's really excited about me telling the story is last week we were in Eric's church and during 00:49:23.220 --> 00:49:30.100 the worship, Ava hears this sound, this voice saying, pray for the lady behind you. So when we 00:49:30.180 --> 00:49:35.780 came off, we were worshiping and we got to the chair and she asked us, daddy, can I pray for the 00:49:35.780 --> 00:49:41.220 lady behind us? So she asked mommy. Mommy said, yeah, sure. Let's pray for her. And Ava prays 00:49:41.220 --> 00:49:47.540 over the lady and she just says, you will live and not die. That's what the voice said. You will 00:49:47.540 --> 00:49:53.540 live and not die and you are blessed. And we sat down. After the meeting, the woman came to us. 00:49:53.540 --> 00:49:58.660 This was the first time she was ever in Eric's church. She said, I just got a report in the 00:49:58.740 --> 00:50:03.700 week that I have kidney failure and that the doctor is giving me a few months to live. 00:50:05.060 --> 00:50:11.060 And the Lord can use, the Lord can use anybody. A seven year old, she hears the voice of God. 00:50:11.060 --> 00:50:13.060 So this is just some testimonies for you guys. 00:50:18.340 --> 00:50:26.260 So this week, man, and for the rest of your life, just go and be just so foolish, but out there, 00:50:27.220 --> 00:50:34.100 not in here. Yeah. Come back with such stories of, you don't know what happened, but I did 00:50:34.100 --> 00:50:44.100 something really foolish. Yeah. Got to be like those guys. Always remember the Holy Spirit is 00:50:44.100 --> 00:50:50.900 provoked by your foolishness. The Holy Spirit is always provoked by foolishness. Foolishness, 00:50:50.900 --> 00:50:58.180 all I mean is when you're no longer preserving self or your reputation or your dignity. Cool. 00:50:58.180 --> 00:51:04.180 You got to baptize people. Besides Megan and Annie, is there anyone else who wants to be baptized? 00:51:10.660 --> 00:51:15.620 Anyone? Because the Ethiopian said, look, I see some water. 00:51:16.500 --> 00:51:21.940 Yeah, he did. And so he got baptized. So you don't, we can do a baptism class after the baptism. 00:51:23.620 --> 00:51:36.580 Anyone who wants to get baptized? Cool. So we'll have Annie go in first and then Megan after. 00:51:38.260 --> 00:51:39.460 Hey, Danny boy. 00:51:39.460 --> 00:51:48.580 Sure. Hey guys, just remember one thing. We baptize them with water, but then I'm reminded of what John 00:51:48.580 --> 00:51:56.100 the Baptist said. I baptize with water, but he baptizes with Holy Spirit and fire. So once they're 00:51:56.100 --> 00:52:02.420 baptized, they're baptized with water. So they're baptized with water. So they're baptized with water. 00:52:03.220 --> 00:52:09.700 I baptize with water, but he baptizes with Holy Spirit and fire. So once they're baptized and 00:52:09.700 --> 00:52:17.460 they come out, we'll pray that the Holy Spirit fills them. And why are we praying for the filling 00:52:17.460 --> 00:52:26.180 of the Holy Spirit? Because it'll empower them or give them extraordinary power from Christ-exalting 00:52:26.180 --> 00:52:32.180 ministry, Christ-exalting mission, Christ-exalting witness. That's what will happen. So once they 00:52:32.180 --> 00:52:38.980 come out, that's what we'll pray for. In Luke 3.16 it says, I baptize you with water, but he who is 00:52:38.980 --> 00:52:45.060 mightier than I is coming. The strap of whose sandals I'm not worthy to untie. Jesus will baptize 00:52:45.060 --> 00:52:50.180 you with the Holy Spirit and fire. So we'll baptize with water and then Jesus will baptize with Holy 00:52:50.180 --> 00:53:00.260 Spirit and fire. That we'll have them both stand and pray for them. And when we pray for the 00:53:01.060 --> 00:53:05.460 baptism of the Holy Spirit for them, you pray for a fresh baptism on yourself too. 00:53:06.020 --> 00:53:11.860 Because this is subsequent outpouring. It's not one. The disciples were baptized in Acts chapter 00:53:11.860 --> 00:53:17.460 two with the Holy Spirit. Then in Acts chapter four. Then in Acts chapter 13. So it's a subsequent 00:53:18.180 --> 00:53:25.940 filling for the sake of extraordinary service. Because what God is calling us to is not small 00:53:25.940 --> 00:53:35.620 potatoes. So any more kids want to come and see what you'll be doing soon? 00:53:43.300 --> 00:53:44.180 Hi Phoebe. 00:53:47.860 --> 00:53:49.380 Because she's going to get baptized. 00:53:49.380 --> 00:54:07.060 Yeah. Hey Derek there's a mic there eh. So when you speak it'll carry. 00:54:20.020 --> 00:54:30.420 Yeah. Can you hear me? All right. Annie I'm going to ask you a few questions. 00:54:31.620 --> 00:54:36.260 We've heard your confession of faith but I'll ask you a few questions and then I'll baptize you. 00:54:36.260 --> 00:54:46.420 Are we good? 00:54:49.140 --> 00:54:54.260 Do you receive Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord? 00:54:56.180 --> 00:55:04.820 Do you believe that you were crucified with Christ and you no longer live and Christ lives in you? 00:55:06.420 --> 00:55:15.700 Do you publicly proclaim that Jesus Christ is the Lord of your life and that he is the only one 00:55:15.700 --> 00:55:25.060 who can save? Are you committed to live as part of a body? Not as a separate individual 00:55:25.060 --> 00:55:29.220 but as part of a body and live as Jesus wants you to live? 00:56:06.580 --> 00:56:16.900 It's a big deal guys. Father we praise you. Father we bless you. It's always a pleasure to see someone 00:56:16.900 --> 00:56:22.660 publicly acknowledging you saying I got eyes only for Jesus. I belong to him. I publicly declare it. 00:56:25.140 --> 00:56:28.260 I'm surprised at how you still so rejoice over this father. 00:56:29.140 --> 00:56:37.540 How the angels rejoice over one getting saved but this is the is the is that act where there it's a 00:56:37.540 --> 00:56:44.100 point of no return. It's a point of no return. It's a point of no return and we thank you for Annie 00:56:44.100 --> 00:56:51.060 and we celebrate with her this point of no return. We'll sing that song no turning back later. 00:57:28.260 --> 00:57:31.060 Thank you. 00:57:58.340 --> 00:58:10.740 Okay Megan am I supposed to stand here or there? You're supposed to stand here. Yeah facing this way. 00:58:10.740 --> 00:58:16.980 Okay I know that you already have answers to these questions but I'm going to ask it anyway 00:58:16.980 --> 00:58:27.300 for the sake of the rest of the church. Do you receive Jesus Christ as your savior and your Lord? 00:58:28.260 --> 00:58:39.220 You do. Do you believe that you were crucified with Christ when he died on the cross and that 00:58:39.220 --> 00:58:45.860 you no longer live but he lives in you and that when you go down and come up that's basically 00:58:45.860 --> 00:58:56.580 what you're symbolizing. Great so you said yes right okay then do you recognize that once you're 00:58:56.580 --> 00:59:04.100 baptized you're baptized or added to this family the church not Acts 29 just that you become part 00:59:04.100 --> 00:59:11.540 of the body of Christ you recognize that okay and do you choose to not live your life as an 00:59:11.540 --> 00:59:16.420 individual Christian but as a believer who will be part of a larger family okay. 00:59:27.220 --> 00:59:31.220 Jesus Christ is Lord. It is our pleasure. 00:59:47.220 --> 00:59:52.340 She's making a declaration not just to us she's making a declaration in heaven she's making a 00:59:52.340 --> 00:59:57.860 declaration on the earth she's letting powers know that I belong to one called Jesus Christ 00:59:57.860 --> 01:00:05.060 who alone is Lord and savior of my life.
