00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 3: I got an honor our pastor.

19
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 1: I'd love to do. This is arguably one of my

20
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 1: favorite things to do when on this stage, and I

21
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 1: just want to honor specifically this ghost writer series that

22
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 1: seven weeks was absolutely was a beneficial for you. I'm

23
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 1: seeing snaps right now right Hey, just absolute fire preaching

24
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 1: from both of our pastors, and if you missed it,

25
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: you need to do everything you gotta do to get

26
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 1: on YouTube and get that entire series. Okay, here's what

27
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 1: I understand about fire. When you reach scripture. The prophet

28
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: Moses was called by fire. Elijah called down fire, Elisha

29
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:45,279
Speaker 1: made a fire, Micah prophesied fire. John the Baptist cried

30
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: that you'll be baptized by fire. Jesus said, I've come

31
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: to send fire on the earth. Right. Fire is something

32
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 1: that God always referenced and used in Scripture. And one

33
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 1: thing I know about my old sinful nature is it

34
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: may dodge the water, Baptist, but it will be destroyed

35
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 1: in the fire Baptism. Come on, somebody, can I get

36
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: an amen? So here's what I know. I'm grateful for

37
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: a pastor that understands the power of the Holy Ghost

38
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:18,920
Speaker 1: fire that both destroys, purifies, worms, attracts, and empowers Amen.

39
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: And what they did, the way they surgically preached that

40
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 1: Holy Ghost series, let me tell you something was absolutely astounding.

41
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:34,959
Speaker 1: So what I want to do just for those seven weeks.

42
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,799
Speaker 1: We could go a lot longer, but just for those

43
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: seven weeks, can we give it up for our pastors,

44
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: Pastor Stephen and hollyfordit we love you. We hope you're

45
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,079
Speaker 1: getting rest and refreshment. We think the world of you.

46
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 1: Thank you for preaching the Bible. It means the world

47
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,639
Speaker 1: has changed my life, and I know it's changed thousands

48
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: and millions of people across the world. Okay, have you

49
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 1: found Mark five? Okay, well you can find you a

50
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 1: way to you see y'all all excited. I know it's okay,

51
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: Mark five. It's a lot of verses, so I wouldn't

52
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 1: want to do that to you, Mark five twenty one.

53
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:13,239
Speaker 1: This is what it says, is that when Jesus had

54
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 1: again crossed over by the boat to the other side

55
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,399
Speaker 1: of the lake, a large crowd gathered around him while

56
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 1: he was by the lake. Then one of the synagogue

57
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: leaders named Gyrius came, and when he saw Jesus, he

58
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: fell at his feet. Everyone say come, and he pleaded

59
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: earnestly with him, My little daughter is dying. Please come

60
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: and put your hands on her so that she will

61
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: be healed and live. And Jesus went with him. A

62
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 1: large crowd followed and pressed around him, and a woman

63
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years.

64
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: She had suffered a great deal under the many cares

65
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: of doctors and has spent all she had, Yet instead

66
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 1: of getting better, she grew worse. And when she heard

67
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: about Jesus, she came, everyone say, come behind him in

68
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: the crowd, and touched his clothes because she thought, if

69
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 1: I just touched his clothes.

70
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 3: I will be healed. And immediately her bleeding.

71
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: Stopped, and she felt in her body that she.

72
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 3: Was freed from her suffering.

73
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: And at once Jesus realized that power had gone out

74
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: from him. He turned around the court in the crowd

75
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 1: and asked, who touched my clothes? And the disciples are like,

76
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: what are you talking about?

77
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 3: Who touched me?

78
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 1: There's no way we could tell, but Jesus kept looking

79
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: around to see who had done it. And then the woman,

80
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 1: knowing what had happened to her, came everyone say come,

81
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 1: and fell at his feet, and, trembling with fear, told

82
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: him the whole truth and nothing but the truth. And

83
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 1: he said to her, daughter, your faith has healed you.

84
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: Go in peace and be free from your suffering. And

85
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 1: while Jesus was still speaking, some people came, everyone say,

86
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: come from the house of Gyros. The synagogue leader, your

87
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 1: daughter is dead, they said, why bother Jesus anymore. Overhearing

88
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 1: what they said, Jesus told him, don't be afraid, just believe.

89
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: And he did not let anyone follow him except Peter,

90
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 1: James and John. And when they came, everyone say, come

91
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: to the home of the synagogue leader. Jesus sought commotion,

92
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 1: with people crying and wailing loudly.

93
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 3: He went in and said to them, why all this commotion.

94
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: The child is not dead but asleep. They laughed at him,

95
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 1: and after he put them all out, he took the

96
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 1: child's father and mother and the disciples who are with him,

97
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,280
Speaker 1: and went in where the child was. He took her

98
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 1: by the hand and said to her to lead the coop,

99
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: which means little girl, I say to you, get up,

100
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: And immediately the girl stood up and began to walk around.

101
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 1: At this they were completely astonished, and he gave strict

102
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 1: orders not to let anyone know about this, and told

103
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 1: them to give her something to eat. I'm going to

104
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: title the conversation that I'm just having with God while

105
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 1: you're in the room the room where it happens. The

106
00:05:55,480 --> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 1: room where it happens. Everyone say, the room, the room

107
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:10,479
Speaker 1: where it happens, who the room where it happens. You know,

108
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 1: as I get older, I've realized that there are a

109
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: lot of important rooms in my life. Oftentimes those rooms

110
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 1: are not the rooms that I thought would be so important.

111
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: Can I get an amen? I've realized I've labeled some

112
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 1: rooms wrongly and would never think that some rooms are

113
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 1: that as important as I never thought hospital room would

114
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:35,359
Speaker 1: be so important to me. Let me put a picture

115
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,919
Speaker 1: up real quick of the hospital room. This is when

116
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 1: we had our first girl. And I'll never forget that

117
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: hospital room. I'll also never forget that green, crappy chair

118
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: that I have to lay in. Come on, Dad's you

119
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:52,479
Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about. Do No matter how small

120
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: you are, that thing is not comfortable. That thing is

121
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: not comfortable. But the hospital room, man, I'll never forget

122
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: about that room. But a hospital room, man, I just

123
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: never thought that that would be such an important room

124
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 1: to me. Let me show you another picture. This room

125
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: is special to me. This is the room you're in

126
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: it right now, Lake Norman. This is the Lake Norman Auditorium.

127
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 1: This is the room where I came for just twenty

128
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: four hours eight years ago for inside elevation In fact,

129
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 1: if you zoom in real, real close, right on the right,

130
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: you can see this little blonde patch of hair.

131
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 3: Yep, that's still me.

132
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: And I'll never forget that room because that was the

133
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: room where I was called and formed and evident that

134
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: I would be formed to this vision and called to

135
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 1: this church and called to our pastors. But I didn't

136
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: think that room was going to be that important. Let's

137
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 1: check this other room out. This room, this is an

138
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: interesting room. I want to show you the room. This

139
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: is the actual room right here, the cafeteria of a

140
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 1: campgrounds in Oklahoma. I know you can't, I say, you

141
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 1: tell that, but that's true.

142
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 3: I'm not lying.

143
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: But we actually found it right there, and we were

144
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: sitting in chairs like that, And little did I know

145
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: that I would be sitting next to the person that

146
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 1: I would eat meals with for the rest of my life.

147
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 1: This is where I met my wife. And let me

148
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: tell you something. I didn't think I'll be meeting my

149
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: wife in a room like that Oklahoma campground. All right,

150
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 1: let me show you the other room, this last room

151
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 1: right here, this is the first time that I met

152
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 1: my son, Brodie. He was eight years old. I don't

153
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 1: know if you can tell first time, but his legs

154
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 1: are already on my legs. He loved me from the beginning.

155
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: Oh man, And that is a room, a a living

156
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 1: room and Oklahoma still water, Oklahoma. I never thought that

157
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: that living room would be such an important room for me.

158
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 3: Never did I ever. Maybe you could think about.

159
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,680
Speaker 1: Some rooms right now that have importance to you that

160
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: you would have never thought. Oh, never thought this would

161
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: be so important. I can't help but to think about

162
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 1: this passage because Peter, James and John have been brought

163
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 1: into a room right. In fact, there were some of

164
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: the only ones that got in to the room. And

165
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 1: here's what I think is interesting. Because Gyrus is in

166
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 1: there right, the mother's in there obviously, the child's in there. Oh,

167
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 1: we need that. But to bring the three disciples in?

168
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 1: And I always thought, very interesting why them? And I

169
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: began to think about this, just maybe Peter, James and John,

170
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 1: if you don't know, these are the closest disciples to Jesus. Oh,

171
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: ain't that interesting? I wonder if that's why they were

172
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 1: invited to the room. Maybe they hadn't been in previous

173
00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 1: rooms with Jesus, so it allowed the opportunity for them

174
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,319
Speaker 1: to get into the room where the miracle would happen.

175
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: Right this is this is This is very interesting to

176
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 1: me because what I know is this is a special

177
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,320
Speaker 1: room right here. This is a special room right here.

178
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 1: And if you're online, you're watching, you're in the room,

179
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: if you're out of campus, right now, these are special

180
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 1: rooms where God begins to move. This is a room

181
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: where a lot of things can begin to happen in

182
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,800
Speaker 1: your life. In fact, a couple of weeks ago, pastors said,

183
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,680
Speaker 1: don't leave Jesus in this room. That was a word

184
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 1: for somebody you missed three weeks ago. Don't leave Jesus.

185
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 3: In the room.

186
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 1: Why Because Jesus goes wherever faith puts him. Jesus goes

187
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 1: wherever faith puts him. What rooms are you putting Jesus in?

188
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: You think that this room is special and it just

189
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: is always like this. Let me tell you something about

190
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 1: this room. There are people praying over this room all week,

191
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 1: all week. Jerry Sumner walking down every aisle. This morning

192
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 1: at seven in the morning, I watched them. There is

193
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: again walking praying for you. I don't know why this

194
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 1: room is special because there's a different kind of faith

195
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: in the room. There's a different kind of expectation that

196
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,200
Speaker 1: was set in the room before you leave and got

197
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: in the room. This is something we've got to understand. Like, man,

198
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 1: every time I get into the elevation doors, that's just

199
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 1: something different. Yeah, it doesn't just happen, right, it doesn't

200
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 1: just happen. And when you show up and you feel

201
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 1: this faith rise, what is that, ma'am? There's people praying

202
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 1: for miracles. There's people that are sitting next to you

203
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 1: that need a miracle in their business and they're saying,

204
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: I only got today. There's people next to you this day,

205
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 1: I need a miracle in my marriage. And you know what,

206
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 1: this is the last time I'm going to church. So

207
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 1: this is it. I hope God does something. I hope

208
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 1: he shows up. I hope he begins to move in

209
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: this room and they're praying and they're prepping, they're having

210
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 1: these conversations with God. It doesn't just happen. But what

211
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,680
Speaker 1: you've got to understand is that whatever room you invite

212
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: Jesus into, miracles can begin to happen. I don't care

213
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 1: if it's this room with that room, the conference room,

214
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,680
Speaker 1: the breakroom, the living room, the waiting room, it don't

215
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 1: matter whatever room. Look at your neighbors, say make room.

216
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 1: But if we aren't careful, we'll never make any more

217
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 1: room than the ninety minutes on a Sunday each week.

218
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,199
Speaker 1: If we aren't careful, we'll think, Oh, I'm doing everything

219
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 1: I need to do. God right here, bless me, bless me.

220
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 1: I'm here, I'm waiting. Gyrius didn't even have a room.

221
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: He began to make room for Jesus. In this passage,

222
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 1: verse twenty two, it says he came, and when he

223
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 1: saw Jesus, he fell at his feet, and he pleaded.

224
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 3: Earnestly with him.

225
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 1: Oh, I want to lift up that earnest word real quick,

226
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 1: all right, I want to say earnestly. Well, okay, put

227
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 1: on Hebrews eleven six, real quick, that's yeah. Hebrews eleven six,

228
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,679
Speaker 1: it says, And without faith, or want to say, faith,

229
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 1: is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to

230
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,119
Speaker 1: him must believe that he exists and that he rewards

231
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 1: those who earnestly seek him, those who diligently seek him,

232
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 1: those who consistently and persistently are praying and having conversations.

233
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 1: We've got those who have that relationships, that intimacy with

234
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,679
Speaker 1: the holy spirits, that closeness that you.

235
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 3: Can only feel, and you begin to describe it.

236
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:57,719
Speaker 1: They have been with Jesus. What is different about them?

237
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 1: They have been with Jesus. What do you do when

238
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:06,079
Speaker 1: you see Jesus? I've asked this question before in a

239
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 1: sermon in this very room. I think it's vital to

240
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 1: ask again, what do you do when you see Jesus?

241
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 1: Let me ask you something. When's the last time you

242
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 1: fell at his feet? I think it's interesting because it

243
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 1: says he came to Jesus and fell at his tea

244
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 1: seven times. In this twenty one scripture passage seven times,

245
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 1: it says he came and went. There was a journey,

246
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 1: he came and went. There was a journey, he came

247
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 1: and went. There was this there was this rhythm almost

248
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 1: coming and going. He came to Jesus and he fell

249
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 1: at his feet. And I think, I want to I

250
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 1: want to sit on this for a little bit because

251
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 1: I think we can look at this and go, Yeah,

252
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 1: he came, he fell at his feet. But what's interesting

253
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 1: is later with the sick woman, and she comes and

254
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: falls at his feet. I thought, okay, so both of

255
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 1: them come and fall at the feet of Jesus.

256
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 3: What are they doing? What are they doing?

257
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 1: What do they do? What do they doing? That they're

258
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 1: they're earnestly seeking after him, they're pleading their begging, right,

259
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 1: Because what you gotta understand about Gyrus is Gyrus has

260
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 1: a history with God. He's a synagogue leader, so he knows, right,

261
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 1: and he's aware of Jesus, right, and so he knows

262
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 1: and he understands some of these some of these customs.

263
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 1: But but, but what we've got to understand is that

264
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 1: Gyros more than likely has some sort of rhythm established. Right,

265
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 1: So when he comes to Jesus, more than likely he

266
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 1: had already been in some private rooms with God. And

267
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: he begins to plead with Jesus. And I think it's interesting,

268
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 1: he says, he falls at his feet. So let me

269
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 1: ask you again, how are you coming to Jesus. There

270
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 1: is a humility presented when you fall at the feet

271
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 1: of Jesus. There's a humility that is presented. Well, there's

272
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: a humility that's presented when you come to the end

273
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: of yourself. There's a humility that's presented when you come

274
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 1: to yourself. Isn't it interesting that what we've done as

275
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 1: as a church, Big c Church. Is we've gone like this,

276
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 1: Hey God, prayer, Lord you deserve Oh Lord, you next Sunday,

277
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: Hey Lord, prayer is a Lord? You deserve a Lord.

278
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 3: That's not how Jirous came.

279
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 1: If we're not careful, what we'll see is that every

280
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:07,719
Speaker 1: Sunday pray. It's like, well, that's not my personality. Tim,

281
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 1: I know what you're about to say, because Gyrus went

282
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 1: like this, Lord, no help me, bless me. I need you.

283
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 1: I'm desperate. My daughter is dying. Okay, okay, And here's

284
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 1: what here's what I know, here's what I know. I

285
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 1: ask for my personality, Tim, Well, guess what personality goes

286
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 1: out the window when desperation walks through the door. We

287
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 1: gotta be really, really careful. Now we don't sing his

288
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 1: praise and shun his person He said, no, no, no, no, Jesus,

289
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 1: I come to you. I fall at your feet. Don't

290
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 1: get a big head, chumps, I fall at your feet.

291
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 1: There's a there's a humility that is resented from both

292
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 1: of these subjects. I don't want you to miss it

293
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 1: because at the end, when I start talking to you men,

294
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: you gotta understand where where are your kids watching you?

295
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:26,119
Speaker 1: Be humble. He's like, I can't do it. It's just

296
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:27,640
Speaker 1: not my thing. It's just not my thing. I want

297
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 1: to see my kids understand that I love the Lord

298
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: and I need him more than anything else. There's nothing else.

299
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:39,679
Speaker 1: I don't care how stupid I look. I don't care

300
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,200
Speaker 1: how stupid I feel. I'm gonna get up at five

301
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,440
Speaker 1: in the morning and I'm gonna pray before you. I'm

302
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 1: gonna fall at your feet. I'm coming to you, Lord God.

303
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 1: I don't know what you have for me this week,

304
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 1: but man, I need you. So you tell me, Lord,

305
00:18:53,440 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: you know, show me. We gotta come to Jesus. And

306
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, we gotta follow this feet. Okay, maybe

307
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 1: it is to change your posture. Change your posture. Work

308
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 1: at it, change your posture. The lie of the enemy

309
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 1: is that you have to hit rock bottom to become

310
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 1: hungry for the things of God. Do not wait until

311
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: a dying child to come to the Lord. Every day,

312
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 1: his mercies are new every morning. That means his grace

313
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,200
Speaker 1: is new every morning. His strength is new every morning,

314
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 1: his confidence is new every morning. His direction is new

315
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:45,119
Speaker 1: every morning, his vision is new every morning. This just

316
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:49,679
Speaker 1: cannot be a Sunday faith. What would it look like.

317
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,800
Speaker 1: What would this room look like if the rhythm was

318
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 1: established with Jesus, the Father and the Holy Spirit in

319
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 1: private before we got into the public Once I said

320
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,439
Speaker 1: this before Sunday church is meant to be a confirmation

321
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:09,919
Speaker 1: and affirmation of what God has already told you throughout

322
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 1: the week. That's it. So some of you are walking

323
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 1: in and I've done this, I've done this. I've walked

324
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 1: in like, oh Lord, please, I hope he worth speaking

325
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 1: a pastor because I really need a word. And he

326
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 1: looked at me and said, I've been trying to speak

327
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 1: to you, and you know how good God is. He'll

328
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 1: still speak through pastor to me, even in the midst

329
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 1: of my arrogance, even in the midst of my ignorance

330
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:42,199
Speaker 1: and ignoring him throughout the week, He's still does it.

331
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 1: That's how good our God is. She got to get

332
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 1: a rhythm. You gotta get a rhythm. You gotta get

333
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,480
Speaker 1: a rhythm, I would say, rhythm. So then it goes

334
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:54,680
Speaker 1: on to say, my little daughter is dying, Please come

335
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 1: and put your hands on her so that she'll be healed.

336
00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 1: And Jesus went with them, and a large crowd followed

337
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:03,399
Speaker 1: and pressed around him. And then a woman who was

338
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,639
Speaker 1: there who've been subject to bleeding for twelve years, and

339
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,160
Speaker 1: she suffered a great deal under the care of many

340
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 1: doctors and spend all she had, Yet instead of getting better,

341
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:17,199
Speaker 1: she grew worse. And when she heard about Jesus, she

342
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,200
Speaker 1: came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak.

343
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 1: So an interruption comes for Gyrus, but an opportunity comes

344
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:30,440
Speaker 1: for this woman who an opportunity presents itself.

345
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 3: For this sick woman.

346
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,880
Speaker 1: How many of you have kids, didn't want to have kids,

347
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 1: didn't want to have kids? You got kids, be fruitful

348
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 1: and multiply amens. What the Lord said but he didn't

349
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: talk to me about was all the interruptions I was

350
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:50,199
Speaker 1: gonna get right. Oh, but how many times when you

351
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 1: just like really take a breath and take a pause, and.

352
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:58,159
Speaker 3: You go, it's probably not that big of an interruption, and.

353
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 1: You start focusing on your son, you start focusing on

354
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:06,680
Speaker 1: your daughter, and you realize, ooh, I'm glad I didn't

355
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 1: misset opportunity. If your parents you know exactly what I'm

356
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 1: talking about.

357
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 3: But there's this opportunity.

358
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 1: She's been sick for twelve years, and she's thinking to herself,

359
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 1: there might be a little room for me. It's just

360
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 1: a little walk by opportunity in essence, When we would

361
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,479
Speaker 1: look at that, we might say there's no time at

362
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 1: all for her to get her healing. But God can

363
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 1: do in one minute, well we couldn't do in an

364
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 1: hour of time. What I really believe is that when

365
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,160
Speaker 1: it talks about verse twenty eight says because she thought,

366
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 1: if I just touched his clothes, I'll be healed. Immediately,

367
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,439
Speaker 1: her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body there

368
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:45,639
Speaker 1: she'd be free from her suffering. And at once Jesus

369
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 1: realized that power had.

370
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 3: Gone out from him.

371
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 1: When you leave a moment of prayer with Jesus, how

372
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:56,400
Speaker 1: much power have you taken from him? When you leave

373
00:22:56,440 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: a conversation with Jesus, a moment with Jesus, how much

374
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 1: have you been filled with this power? Is it enough

375
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 1: for Jesus to notice? Because it sure was enough for

376
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 1: him to notice the power had left this body. I'm

377
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 1: here to tell you be selfish with this power. How

378
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,879
Speaker 1: many selfish people in the room? I got you all

379
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 1: the single people that the other way, we got to

380
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,200
Speaker 1: be selfish with this power. But now here's what I said.

381
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 3: What do I mean by that?

382
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 1: Be careful? Be careful because I'm not talking about let's

383
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 1: be transactional with this power. That's that's that's not what

384
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,160
Speaker 1: I'm here for. That's a slippery slope that we can

385
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,400
Speaker 1: get into. What I mean is that God has all

386
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:42,160
Speaker 1: that you need. He is all sufficient, and I can't

387
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:46,639
Speaker 1: operate with this power each in every day. And what

388
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 1: I want to remind you is that the only power

389
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,879
Speaker 1: that God yields to is that of prayer and faith.

390
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:57,200
Speaker 1: Think about that the power left because all she.

391
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,440
Speaker 3: Was doing was praying. Maybe this is my moment, Maybe

392
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:00,400
Speaker 3: this is there was.

393
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: Some faith when you begin to have that conversation with

394
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 1: God and raise the faith. Ooh, God begins to notice,

395
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 1: He begins to look back, he begins to wonder and

396
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 1: go wait, wait, wait, wait, someone's praying, someone's trying to

397
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:18,159
Speaker 1: get my attention, someone's bothering me. He turned around in

398
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:19,880
Speaker 1: the crowd and asked, who touched my clothes? You see

399
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 1: the people cried in against you. Yet you can ask

400
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 1: who's touching. But Jesus kept looking around to see who

401
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 1: had done it. And then the woman, knowing what had happened,

402
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 1: to her, came and fell at his feet, trembling with fear,

403
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,360
Speaker 1: and told him the whole truth. And this is where

404
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 1: we see it again. She comes to Jesus and she

405
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:37,440
Speaker 1: falls at his feet. What is different than Gyros because

406
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 1: Gyros begins to list out the requests and says, can

407
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:46,439
Speaker 1: you lay your hand on my daughter and heal? But

408
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,639
Speaker 1: this woman, she doesn't do that. She comes to Jesus,

409
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,639
Speaker 1: she falls at his feet because the only prerequisite to

410
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:56,520
Speaker 1: come me to Jesus is humility. He comes to Jesus,

411
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,400
Speaker 1: falls at his feet, but she doesn't begin to list

412
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 1: out request. She begins to tremble with fear, a reverence,

413
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:10,199
Speaker 1: knowing how holy this man is, and she begins to

414
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 1: open up.

415
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 3: They want to say, open up. Oh, I want to say,

416
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:15,360
Speaker 3: open up.

417
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,639
Speaker 1: Woo. All the introverts don't like that. Open up. You

418
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: want me to be honest, You want me to be real,

419
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 1: You want me to be transparent and wrong who you

420
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 1: want me to open up? Yeah, to Jesus, please, because

421
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,159
Speaker 1: you're doing it too much to people. But if you

422
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 1: begin to do it with Jesus, Ooh, what begins to

423
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 1: happen is you begin to start making some room for

424
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 1: God to move. He said to her daughter, your faith

425
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:45,400
Speaker 1: has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from

426
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,639
Speaker 1: your suffering. And while Jesus was still speaking, some people

427
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 1: came from the house of Jedis your daughter's dead. Why

428
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 1: bother the teacher anymore? Could you imagine being gyrous in

429
00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 1: this moment a relief. I'm thinking, man, it's about to happen,

430
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:05,880
Speaker 1: she's about to get healed. We on the way, we gucci,

431
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: I prayed, and I'm feeling really good about it. I'm

432
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 1: feeling a supernatural amount of peace. Have you ever experienced

433
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 1: this before? Right, there's like a little breath of hope,

434
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:18,239
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, the interruption, right, and

435
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 1: then the crew comes around friends and starts telling you, hey,

436
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 1: starts giving you the news, and it's like, hey, your

437
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 1: prayers didn't work. Sorry, she's dead. Hey, I know you

438
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:35,399
Speaker 1: were hoping it was gonna be this way, but guess what.

439
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 1: Too late, Too bad, it's not gonna work. In fact,

440
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 1: don't even bother Jesus anymore, That's what they said.

441
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, like, why bother the teacher anymore?

442
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:59,320
Speaker 1: WHOA, I'm gonna stay here right here, because sometimes we

443
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,919
Speaker 1: go and pray to yuh we feel that peace, we

444
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: feel that hope, and we get around the wrong people

445
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,240
Speaker 1: and they start saying, yeah, I just don't think it's

446
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 1: gonna work. Why bother? Why bother? Why bother the teacher anymore?

447
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 1: Why bother? What do you mean? Why bother? That crew

448
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:28,680
Speaker 1: was not in the room when Gyros came to Jesus

449
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 1: and fell at his feet. No one was there, not

450
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: that crew. They don't know what's been happening. Gyros has

451
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 1: something different because he was in a room with Jesus before,

452
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 1: he's in a room with this crew. Do you see

453
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,959
Speaker 1: the value? That's why he ain't sweating it. I mean,

454
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 1: I don't know.

455
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 3: I don't know. Maybe he was sweating it. It's a

456
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:49,680
Speaker 3: pretty big deal.

457
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 1: But like, could you imagine, like what do you feel

458
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:53,399
Speaker 1: like Givers was feeling. Do you feel like he was

459
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 1: feeling like doubt? Or is there kind of like a

460
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 1: swagger about of him? You know what I'm saying, like doubt,

461
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:02,359
Speaker 1: Like oh, oh really she did? That's probably what I

462
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 1: would feel. I'd be like, oh darn right. But maybe

463
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 1: he had a swagger. Maybe he had a swagger about him,

464
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,439
Speaker 1: Like yeah, yeah, no, for sure, I get it. But

465
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 1: Jesus is on the way, and so I'm moving with him.

466
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 1: I'm going with him. I already pray were good. We

467
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 1: already had a conversation. He said he was coming my way.

468
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:29,200
Speaker 1: We're in it. We gotta be real careful. We got

469
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 1: to stop inviting people into situations where the answer is

470
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:34,880
Speaker 1: only found in a private room with Jesus.

471
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 3: I don't know about you, but what I do know

472
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 3: what I do know what drivers did.

473
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 1: I don't know if he felled doubt. I'm sure he did.

474
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if he had a swagger. But what

475
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 1: I do know he did. So he kept moving with Jesus.

476
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 1: He kept moving with Jesus. Everyone say move, Oh, how

477
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 1: do you make room? Everyone say keep moving? Ooh.

478
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 3: Pastor says in his book, do the new you.

479
00:28:54,800 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 1: I'm not stuck unless I stop, do not keep going.

480
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 1: Jesus is on the way. Well it don't look like

481
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 1: it don't matter. We don't look at external sources. We

482
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 1: look at Jesus. We look at the word of God.

483
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,479
Speaker 1: We've got hope. We understand he's on the way, and

484
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 1: he can do something absolutely incredible. He can turn it around.

485
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 1: A miracle is on the way. As long as we

486
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 1: keep moving, just like Jyrus did, so team put up

487
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: my put up my title real quick, because now it

488
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 1: says in verse thirty seven, Jesus begins to get.

489
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 3: The room ready.

490
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 1: He says this. He did not let anyone follow him

491
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 1: except Peter, James and John, the brother of James.

492
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 3: So what is that right that closest there's a rhythm.

493
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:55,479
Speaker 1: There's a rhythm. I already got a rhythm with these

494
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 1: three guys. I'm gonna make sure that they're in the room.

495
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 1: Then verse thirty eight, when they came to the home

496
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 1: of the synagogue leader, Jesus saw commotion with people crying

497
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 1: and willing loudly, and he went in and said to them,

498
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 1: why aren't this commotion and willing? The child's not dead

499
00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 1: but asleep. He saw an opportunity right there, here we go.

500
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 1: I'm about to make a miracle happen. But they laughed

501
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:17,840
Speaker 1: at him. After he put them all out right, he

502
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: took the child's father and mother, Oh right, he had

503
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 1: to get real honest with them. He said, oh, you're

504
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 1: gonna laugh. Okay, I need you you you you, you

505
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 1: get out. I need you to get out right there, right,

506
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 1: So what's Jesus doing. He's opening up right he's being honest,

507
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 1: he's being real, he's being transparent. Okay, he said, hey,

508
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,240
Speaker 1: you can't be in this room, takes her by the

509
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 1: hand and says to her to lead the coom, which means,

510
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 1: little girl, I say to you, get up. Move. Immediately

511
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 1: the girl stood up and began to move, and at

512
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 1: this they were completely astonished.

513
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 3: Let me tell you something. This is the room that

514
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 3: I want to be in.

515
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 1: This is the room where it all happens, the room

516
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 1: where Jesus and I are having a conversation. Some of

517
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:14,320
Speaker 1: you have a prayer room. Some of you don't have

518
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 1: a prayer room. Either way, I'm not here to tell.

519
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 3: You that you got to be like the Shootamite woman

520
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 3: and you got.

521
00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,840
Speaker 1: To build another room. I ain't saying that. What I

522
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,560
Speaker 1: am saying is you need to make room for prayer.

523
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:34,600
Speaker 1: You need to make room for a relationship with Jesus.

524
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 1: You need to make room for a relationship with the

525
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit. You need to make room with a relationship

526
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:45,960
Speaker 1: with the Father. All three of those relationships are very,

527
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 1: very important. And here's what you got to understand is

528
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 1: that is that I believe you got to make room

529
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 1: so that you can have room to come to Jesus,

530
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,600
Speaker 1: so that you can fall at his feet, so that

531
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 1: you can humble your so that you can begin to

532
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 1: request things and ask things of him, so that you

533
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:09,160
Speaker 1: can begin to be honest with him and open with

534
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 1: him and transparent with him, so that you can experience

535
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 1: that moment of what trembling with reverent fear actually feels like.

536
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 1: All of the spiritual work is done in prayer. That's it,

537
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 1: that intimacy with the Holy Spirit, that spirit you like,

538
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 1: I need you, Lord, pray, I want you, Lord Great pray.

539
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,760
Speaker 1: Let him speak to you, let him reveal things to you.

540
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 1: We gotta start getting in the room with someone who

541
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:54,120
Speaker 1: can actually do something about my situation. We can't rely

542
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 1: on all these external sources. We gotta go to the

543
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 1: one who can make the miracle happened. It's the room

544
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 1: where Jesus is. And here's the deal. I get the tension.

545
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 1: I know what the tensions are. I just feel like

546
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: prayers a little too complicated. No, come to them, done,

547
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 1: come to them, he said, yea yeah, yeah, but like

548
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 1: but like does it even work? Oh no, pray, No,

549
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:33,600
Speaker 1: I'm just kidding. I do know, yes it works. It's like, oh, well,

550
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 1: God's sovereign, Like, oh, God sovereign, He'll take care of it. Yeah,

551
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,320
Speaker 1: But you know what, I want God to do something

552
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:43,760
Speaker 1: through me. I don't want him to have to go

553
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 1: to the next person because I didn't listen, because I

554
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 1: didn't take the moment, because I wasn't humble, because I

555
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 1: let pride and arrogance get in the way, because I

556
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 1: didn't want to do this and say, Lord, come tell

557
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 1: me what you need me to do. It's not about

558
00:33:56,680 --> 00:34:02,520
Speaker 1: my agendey, it's yours. When God gave Pastor the vision

559
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 1: of this church, see what God can do through you?

560
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:11,120
Speaker 1: Do you think it was all just about serving? Do

561
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 1: you think it was all just about joining a group? Hey,

562
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:16,879
Speaker 1: we want to see what God can do through you.

563
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 1: Do you think it was all about just giving of

564
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 1: your first fruits and your tithes? No, that's the surface.

565
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:29,440
Speaker 1: That's just that's like a minimum. That's just like the beginning.

566
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 1: That's just like that's like step one. Yay. No, see

567
00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:38,880
Speaker 1: what God can do through you? Man, I want you

568
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 1: to pray so you can watch healing happen in your family.

569
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 1: That's what's Seeing what God can do through you really

570
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 1: means when you walking to a room like this thousands

571
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 1: of people in an auditorium. When God downloads something in

572
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 1: your spirit and they highlight someone over therences, I need

573
00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:59,160
Speaker 1: a prophesy to that person right there. That's what God

574
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:04,320
Speaker 1: can do through you. Oh, that's what I want to experience.

575
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,720
Speaker 1: I'm not limiting God to just serving at the church,

576
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:13,759
Speaker 1: which I think is amazing, but don't limit it. Whoo. No, man,

577
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 1: I'm telling you God can begin to move in your

578
00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 1: life and speak to you, and you could go over

579
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:24,400
Speaker 1: to someone and start praying for them and encourage them

580
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,120
Speaker 1: to lift them up, and then they, you know, two

581
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,520
Speaker 1: weeks later like that's exactly what I.

582
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:29,480
Speaker 3: Needed in that very moment.

583
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:31,440
Speaker 1: They don't remember that sermon that day, but they remember

584
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:36,560
Speaker 1: you coming to them. That's what's Seeing what God can

585
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:42,279
Speaker 1: do through you means this is huge. God asked me

586
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:45,640
Speaker 1: a question on March twenty nine, twenty twenty three, Do

587
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 1: you want more of me? I said yes, He goes,

588
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:54,719
Speaker 1: then I need more room than she said. I need

589
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,759
Speaker 1: more room because I need you to wake up at

590
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: five in the morning, and you give me the first

591
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,799
Speaker 1: first hour of every day.

592
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:05,319
Speaker 3: Let me tell you something. I don't wake up at

593
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:06,120
Speaker 3: five in the morning.

594
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 1: No, I don't. I don't do it. It's not me.

595
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:16,160
Speaker 1: It's not my personality. But if you don't listen to God,

596
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 1: that's stupid. She's as playing as I can get on

597
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:22,359
Speaker 1: the youth pastor. So she's like, that's what I would

598
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 1: say to teenager, Like, no, you have to listen to

599
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 1: God or it isn't going to make sense. He's said,

600
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 1: wake up at five am. Start praying to me, worshiping me,

601
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 1: asking me, requesting things of me. And I began to pray,

602
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:40,319
Speaker 1: and then I realized, Man, I don't need to just

603
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 1: pray to the Son. I need to pray to the Father.

604
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:43,920
Speaker 1: And then I said, I don't need to pray to

605
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:45,320
Speaker 1: the five. I need to pray to the Holy Spirit.

606
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:47,800
Speaker 1: I began to realize, Oh, I got three relationships I

607
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:50,839
Speaker 1: got to work with over here, I'm busy at five

608
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,480
Speaker 1: in the morning. Let me tell you something. Yeah. No,

609
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,400
Speaker 1: but I'm not saying that to ooh look at me.

610
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:58,240
Speaker 1: I'm saying that to go It could be as simple

611
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 1: as that for you. I'm saying that I had to

612
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:04,200
Speaker 1: get outside of my personality in my mind, like I no, no,

613
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 1: I'll see God on the you know, in the other

614
00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:07,439
Speaker 1: half of the moon.

615
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,879
Speaker 3: Right, like, I'll see him at night time. It'll be good.

616
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,160
Speaker 1: It's great. I still got the word in it right.

617
00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 1: But when you read scripture, it talks about how Moses

618
00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:19,720
Speaker 1: gets up before the sun gets up. Jesus got away

619
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,560
Speaker 1: with the Father before the sun came up. David got

620
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:27,520
Speaker 1: away in the morning early before the sun came up.

621
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:29,640
Speaker 1: And I see, you know what, I'm done with the excuses, Okay,

622
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,839
Speaker 1: five am. He began to unlock something in my life.

623
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 1: And what I've just realized that is that I had

624
00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:41,000
Speaker 1: to be completely stripped by the Holy Spirit so that

625
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:45,719
Speaker 1: at the same time he could completely strengthen me. You know,

626
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:50,640
Speaker 1: Scripture says that he is our daily bread, but he

627
00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:57,959
Speaker 1: also asks for a daily death. I said, I said

628
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:01,200
Speaker 1: daily death. So he's gonna feed me, but I also

629
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 1: got to die to myself. He's going to take care

630
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 1: of me, but I also got to think. You know what,

631
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 1: I'm moving the distractions aside. I don't need it anymore.

632
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:19,879
Speaker 1: I want to end with this. Leonard Ravenhill said this.

633
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 1: He said, prayer grasps eternity. No man is greater than

634
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:32,799
Speaker 1: his prayer life. The pastor who is not praying is

635
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 1: playing the people who are not praying are straying. The

636
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 1: pulpit can be a shop window to display talents, with

637
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:46,240
Speaker 1: the prayer closet allows no showing off. We have many organizers,

638
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:52,239
Speaker 1: but few agonizers, many players and payers, but few prayers.

639
00:38:53,680 --> 00:39:00,520
Speaker 1: Many singers, few clingers, lots of pastors, few wrestlers, many fears, tears,

640
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:09,440
Speaker 1: much fashion, little passion, many interferers, a few intercessors, many writers,

641
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,840
Speaker 1: but few fighters. Failing here we fail everywhere in the

642
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 1: place of prayer. The two prerequisites to successful Christian living

643
00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 1: our vision and passion, in both of which are born

644
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 1: in and maintained by prayer. The ministry of prayer is

645
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,839
Speaker 1: the highest ministry of all human offices, and it's open

646
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 1: to all. God is not prodigal with this power, but

647
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,319
Speaker 1: to be much for God, we must be much with him.

648
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 1: The secret of praying is praying in secret. A sinning

649
00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 1: man will stop praying, and a praying man will stop sinning.

650
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,319
Speaker 1: We are beggared and bankrupt, but not broken nor even bent.

651
00:39:54,080 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 1: Prayer is profoundly simple and simply profound in the matter

652
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 1: of the New Testament, spirit inspired Hell's shaking world breaking prayer.

653
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 1: Never has so much been let by so many to

654
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:11,439
Speaker 1: so few for this kind of prayer. There is no substitute.

655
00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 1: We do it or we die. Today with everyone in

656
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,360
Speaker 1: the room, in the campuses, I just want you to

657
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:28,000
Speaker 1: stand up, even online. I want you to stay engaged

658
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 1: because you're getting a glimpse.

659
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:34,320
Speaker 3: Into this room.

660
00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:38,200
Speaker 1: I'm going to ask the staff and the leaders, the

661
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:41,800
Speaker 1: prayer team to come forward and just surround this altar.

662
00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 3: Here's what I know.

663
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:51,760
Speaker 1: I pray that we never eliminate the groaning at the altar,

664
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:59,040
Speaker 1: never let us put the power of the Holy Spirit

665
00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:05,880
Speaker 1: and just raising our hand and leave Jesus in this

666
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:09,400
Speaker 1: room as we live our life for the rest of

667
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:17,480
Speaker 1: the week. Today's a moment that if you need prayer,

668
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:24,600
Speaker 1: whatever it may be big, small, children dying, needing healing,

669
00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:33,959
Speaker 1: needing hope. However big, however small, it could be a headache,

670
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:39,640
Speaker 1: it could be a self esteem issue. What we want

671
00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:44,160
Speaker 1: to do is just open up the altars to pray,

672
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:50,000
Speaker 1: to believe, to raise the faith, and to raise the

673
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 1: expectation of who God is and how he sees moment

674
00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:59,839
Speaker 1: like this, this is what it's like to just make

675
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:06,360
Speaker 1: I saw we're doing starting a rhythm right now, seeing

676
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:11,759
Speaker 1: an opportunity right now for the next few moments, and

677
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:12,319
Speaker 1: here's the deal.

678
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:13,120
Speaker 3: I'm gonna ask you.

679
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 1: To move because for some of you, that right there

680
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 1: will kill the pride, that right there. And I keep

681
00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:27,160
Speaker 1: saying it because I had to do it too. I'm

682
00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:30,440
Speaker 1: there with you, and if not, it's gonna be a

683
00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:35,200
Speaker 1: thing I have to do every single day. You know what,

684
00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 1: maybe I do need to get a little uncomfortable, like

685
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 1: this sick woman pushing through the crowd, just to touch

686
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:47,200
Speaker 1: his cloak, just to get a prayer, just to.

687
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,000
Speaker 3: Get a moment with Jesus.

688
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:51,800
Speaker 1: What I know is this the world is not waiting

689
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 1: for a new definition of the Gospel, but a new

690
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:56,319
Speaker 1: demonstration of the power.

691
00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:01,680
