Jesus told this woman something so special. 49 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 2: He didn't tell Peter James or johnet. Nobody in the 50 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 2: house of Israel was ever called it. But he said, 51 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 2: great is your faith. This is the apex, the Master, 52 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 2: the God of Heaven and Earth says to a person, 53 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 2: great is your faith. 54 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 3: I believe, if we look through the. 55 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 2: Scripture, can identify some things that she did that God 56 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 2: granted her the desire of her heart. And I believe, 57 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 2: as we learn this tonight, as God gives you wisdom 58 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 2: and revelation, as God speaks to your heart, as God 59 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 2: teaches you and trains you, and as God works his 60 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 2: spirit through you, I believe that God is going to 61 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 2: give you the desire of your heart. I believe God 62 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 2: is going to give you an experience. How many we 63 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 2: need a fresh experience? Come on, let's say it again. 64 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,039 Speaker 2: I need a fresh experience. How many need a fresh 65 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 2: I want a fresh experience. I don't want to live 66 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 2: off of yesterday's fire, yesterday's anointing. I want something fresh today. 67 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 2: I want God to move today. How many want God 68 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 2: to move tonight? 69 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 3: I want you to see a few things here. 70 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 2: She received the greatest accolades, compliment. She received something of 71 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:12,359 Speaker 2: praise from Jesus. Such a high honor of praise Jesus 72 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 2: put on this woman. 73 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 3: And I think we need to research. 74 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: When something like this happens in scripture, we should dive 75 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 2: into it, digest it, cut it up, begin. 76 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 3: To dissect it. 77 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 2: See what God is doing through there, and let the 78 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 2: Word of God speak to us. 79 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 3: How many of the Word speaks? 80 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 2: How many of the Word is alive, having an know 81 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:45,039 Speaker 2: The Word is active, the Word is moving. I've been 82 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 2: in church services, and I've been a part of church 83 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 2: now for a while. I've seen people come in to 84 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 2: service or come into a atmosphere like one of our crusades. 85 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 2: And I've seen people ric receive something from God. I've 86 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 2: also seen people that come into services and receive nothing. 87 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 2: It breaks my heart when I see people come in 88 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:19,919 Speaker 2: and they receive nothing. My heart and I believe God's 89 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 2: desire in his heart is for you to receive what 90 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 2: you are looking for. I believe if you need healing, 91 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 2: Jesus is the healer. 92 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 3: If you need. 93 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 2: Provision, Jesus is our provider. If you need a miracle, 94 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 2: Jesus is the waymaker, the miracle worker. If you believe that, 95 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 2: just give him a little shout. I break for those 96 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 2: that come and don't receive. Sometimes, and we probably have 97 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 2: all seen it. It's like their prayers hit brass or 98 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 2: heaven is closed on them, and it's like the heavens 99 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 2: are shut up. And I think we have to understand 100 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 2: some truth, some powerful insights that can help us. As 101 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 2: we look at the scripture. I believe the scriptures will 102 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 2: speak to us. Let's look at verse twenty two. I 103 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 2: believe it's gonna Let's just pray right now, God, speak 104 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 2: to your children, give them fresh revelation. 105 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 3: Can I get allowed? Amen? All right, let's check this 106 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 3: out the first scripture. 107 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 4: And behold, a woman of Canaan came from that region 108 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 4: and cried out to him, saying, have mercy on me, o, Lord, 109 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 4: son of David, my daughter is severely demon possessed. 110 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 3: The first thing I noticed. 111 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 2: Is that this woman in verse twenty two has a great, 112 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 2: big problem. I know no one liked that, but she 113 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 2: has a big problem, a big issue, a great problem. 114 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 2: I don't know if someone here tonight has a great problem, 115 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 2: but I have some good news for you. If you 116 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 2: have a great problem, it is the first step for. 117 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 3: A great miracle. 118 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 2: If you have a great problem, a situation that seems 119 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 2: hopeless and helpless, a situation that you can't face by yourself, 120 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 2: something that seems impossible, congratulations, That is the first thing 121 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 2: you need for a great miracle. 122 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 3: Can I get allowed? Amen? 123 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 2: Come on, give me a loud amen. I've had some 124 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 2: big problems. There's nothing like a big problem, because that 125 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 2: produces a big miracle. A great problem will produce a 126 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 2: great miracle. But if you don't have a big problem, 127 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 2: you don't need a big miracle. 128 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 3: Can I get allowed? Amen? 129 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 2: So don't be discouraged. If you have a great problem. 130 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 2: This woman has a great problem. What's the problem. Her 131 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 2: daughter is severely demon possessed. She's even saying there's levels 132 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,959 Speaker 2: to this thing, and this one is really bad. She says, 133 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 2: my daughter is messed up. My daughter is demon possessed. 134 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 2: What is interesting is the woman doesn't have the problem. 135 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 2: She comes representing the problem. I don't know here tonight. 136 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 2: You might not have a problem, but you might come representing. 137 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 2: Maybe your child is lost on drugs. You're coming to 138 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 2: represent the problem here tonight. Maybe you have a loved 139 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 2: one that's sick that the doctor says there's no cure. 140 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 2: You're coming representing the problem tonight. She didn't have a problem, 141 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 2: but her daughter had the problem. And she came saying, look, 142 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 2: I am representing my daughter. My daughter, that's a problem, 143 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 2: not a little problem, a big problem. I am representing 144 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 2: some problems here tonight. I might not have a problem 145 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:13,439 Speaker 2: right now, but I am representing something. I am believing 146 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,199 Speaker 2: God's going to do a miracle with what I'm representing 147 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 2: to Jesus? 148 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 3: Can I get allowed? Amen? Can I get allowed? Amen? 149 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:27,079 Speaker 3: Can I get a loud amen? If you got a. 150 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 2: Problem or you're representing a problem tonight, give him a 151 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 2: shout who What do you want? What do you want 152 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 2: God to do? Whatever your need is, Jesus is the answer. 153 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 2: I believe this woman symbolizes such great faith, and I 154 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 2: believe it's important to understand what she did. 155 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 3: That Jesus has said, great is your faith. If we will. 156 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 2: Recognize what this woman did, I believe God is gonna 157 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 2: give you an experience. There's something happens when God gives 158 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 2: you the desires of your heart because it couldn't happened 159 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 2: on its own. There's something that's deep inside there that 160 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 2: you've been wanting to happen, and you can't make it 161 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 2: happen on your own. And this is what's powerful about 162 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 2: God granting a desire of your heart. It proves to 163 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 2: you how powerful our God is. And I believe you're 164 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 2: gonna have an experience tonight. Can I get allowed? 165 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 3: Amen? Can I get allowed? Amen? 166 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 2: I want you to understand something. Verse twenty three says. 167 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 4: This, but he answered her not a word in his 168 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 4: just Diciples came and urged him, saying, send her away, 169 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 4: for she cries out after us. 170 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 2: Now. I don't know about you, but that would be 171 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 2: pretty discouraging. You come all that way in Jesus which 172 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:21,319 Speaker 2: is this is very uncharacteristic of Jesus. He doesn't say anything. Now, 173 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 2: most of us would give up at that point, Can 174 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 2: I be honest? Jesus says nothing, and we would just 175 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 2: walk away. But this woman, it's absolutely amazing. I want 176 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 2: you to understand this. See he answers her, not a word. 177 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 2: There's some times in our life when we pray, we 178 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 2: seek God and he doesn't answer. 179 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 3: But the Bible says, ask and it will be given 180 00:12:59,880 --> 00:12:59,959 Speaker 3: to you. 181 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 2: Seek and you will find Matthew seventh, verse seventh through eight. 182 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 3: It says, it says that says, ask. 183 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 2: And it will be given to you. Seek and you 184 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 2: will find. Knock and it will be open to you. 185 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 2: Verse eight says for everyone who asks receives, and he 186 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 2: seeks finds to him who knocks, it will be open. 187 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 2: She's asking and he says nothing. See it doesn't say 188 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:36,199 Speaker 2: just ask once. I think sometimes we ask a few 189 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 2: times and give up. You gotta get a little persistent, 190 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 2: you gotta get a little tough. 191 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 3: You gotta get a. 192 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 2: Little bit of a I'm not giving up kind of 193 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 2: spirits you gotta get. 194 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 3: You gotta get something in He says. 195 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 2: You know what I'm gonna keep asking, and I'm gonna 196 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 2: keep asking, and I'm gonna keep asking, and I'm gonna 197 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 2: keep knocking, and I'm want to keep knocking, and i 198 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 2: want to keep knocking, and I'm gonna keep knocking. I'm 199 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 2: gonna keep knocking. Well, that's just annoying. I know it's 200 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 2: annoying in today's culture. But there's something about resiliency. There's 201 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 2: something about not giving up just because you don't get 202 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 2: something once or twice. There's something about not throwing in 203 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 2: the towel because things didn't go your way. 204 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 3: There's something about keep. 205 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 2: Knocking, knocking, knocking, knocking, knocking, until the door is open. 206 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 2: Sometimes God wants to see He wants to develop something 207 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 2: in us greater than what we can understand. And if 208 00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 2: you quit every time it gets tough, or just because 209 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 2: you don't get the answer when you want the answer, 210 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 2: you're not gaining spiritual resiliency to fight the good fight 211 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 2: of faith when the enemy comes. Because sometimes you gotta 212 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 2: get spiritually tough when the attacks come, because the little 213 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 2: attacks or the big attacks will have you running for 214 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 2: the hills, and you'll stop coming to church, you'll stop serving, 215 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 2: you'll start talking. You just won't do anything anymore, and 216 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 2: you won't stop. You will stop. 217 00:14:58,160 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 3: Serving God causes. 218 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 2: I'm trying to tea we should have some resiliency. We've 219 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 2: lost that. In the body of Christ. There's no resiliency. 220 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 2: You got to learn to keep knocking. I just want 221 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 2: to keep knocking, knocking, knocking, knocking. Eventually that door will open. 222 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 2: Can I get allowed? 223 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 3: Amen? Can I get allowed? 224 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 2: Amen? See, I want you to understand something here tonight 225 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 2: that we got to get a little bit tougher. We 226 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 2: got to get a little bit more stubborn with our prayers. 227 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 2: Just because it hasn't happened doesn't mean it's God's will 228 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 2: for it not to happen. See a lot of times 229 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 2: when God doesn't answer, we think it's God's will that 230 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 2: it's not supposed to happen. God's is trying to form 231 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 2: some things in you. God's trying to grow you and 232 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 2: strengthen you, and he wants to increase some things in 233 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 2: your life. 234 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 3: What's verse twenty four. 235 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 4: Saying, But he answered and said I was not sent 236 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 4: except to the lost sheep of the house. 237 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 3: EVO. Go back to twenty three. Real quick, Sir. 238 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 4: And his disciples came and urged him saying send her away, 239 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 4: for she cries out after us, so. 240 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 3: He doesn't say a word. 241 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 2: Then the disciples say, send this woman away. She's annoying, 242 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 2: she's a nuisance. The people that Jesus handpicked to be 243 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 2: the future leaders of the early Church said, send her away. 244 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 2: She's a nuisance, she's annoying, she's getting on our nerves. 245 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 2: Send her away. So she's got a problem. Now she's 246 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 2: got more of a problem because they want to send 247 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 2: her away. So the first thing we see is she 248 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 2: has a great problem. Say great problem. The second thing 249 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 2: I see is she has some great courage because she 250 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:24,199 Speaker 2: isn't running when things are tough. She came a long way, 251 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 2: she crossed a border. 252 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 3: She wasn't from that place. 253 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 2: She was considered an outcast, she was considered someone that 254 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 2: was unclean, and she left all that stuff. She left 255 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 2: her fear, she left all that anxiety, all that worry. Instead, 256 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:47,360 Speaker 2: I heard about a man named Jesus. Even though I'm 257 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 2: not supposed to do this, I heard about a man 258 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 2: named Jesus. I'm not an Israelite, but I heard about 259 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 2: a man named Jesus. I know I'm not supposed to 260 00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,880 Speaker 2: cross this border and go do what I'm getting ready 261 00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 2: to do. But you know what, I'm desperate. I need 262 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 2: an answer. I need to move, and so I got 263 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 2: to throw fear away. See, if you want to experience 264 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,160 Speaker 2: the power of God, you got to put fear aside. 265 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 2: You have to get rid of fear. You have to 266 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 2: say fear, you got to leave. I'm leading you on 267 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 2: the other side of the border. Come on, somebody, don't 268 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,679 Speaker 2: take fear with you when you come asking Jesus for something, 269 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 2: because if you're full of fear, you can't. You will 270 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 2: miss what God is doing because the first time it 271 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 2: doesn't go your way, you'll run because it's not faith 272 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 2: in you, it's fear. Faith and fear cannot exist in 273 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 2: the same place. And so if you have fear, you 274 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 2: can't fight through the difficulties because the difficulties will make 275 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 2: you afraid and you'll start running. 276 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 3: And I've seen it time and time again. 277 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 2: A lot of times people don't get what they want 278 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 2: and they begin to run because they get afraid. And 279 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 2: I don't know about you, but God hasn't given us 280 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 2: a spirit of fear, but He's given us a spirit 281 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 2: of power, love and a sound mind. How many we 282 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 2: serve the God of miracles, signs, and wonders. How many 283 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 2: believe that here tonight give him a shout. So the 284 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 2: next thing I see is she has another She has 285 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,479 Speaker 2: a great trial ahead of her. The disciples don't even 286 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,639 Speaker 2: want to deal with her. So she has this courage, 287 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,439 Speaker 2: but there's also this trial. See I want you to 288 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 2: a saying. They're saying, look, send her away. He isn't 289 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 2: for you. Just just move on, just just move on. 290 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 2: But she kept pressing her way, one trial after another. 291 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 2: We don't know all the trials she faced just to 292 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 2: even get there. We don't know all the difficulties fail 293 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 2: just getting to that point. But the disciples said send 294 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 2: her away because she cries out. She annoys us. Even 295 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 2: the disciples are presenting a trial for this woman. A 296 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 2: lot of times people you're closest to a lot of 297 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:26,640 Speaker 2: times people that are in church come on somebody you're 298 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:32,439 Speaker 2: seeking after God, and they tell you, you know what, Jennie, 299 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:37,120 Speaker 2: you don't got to do all that, it's not necessary. 300 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 2: You know, he loves you just the way you are. 301 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 2: I know he loves me just the way I am. 302 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 2: But I don't want to be just the way I am. 303 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 2: I want to change. I want to be different. I 304 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 2: want to be more like him. I'm tired of pretty Christians. 305 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 2: Come on, somebody, it's time we get a little messy. 306 00:20:58,840 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 3: Come on. 307 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 2: I know God loves me just the way I am, 308 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 2: but I want to be more like him. I don't 309 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 2: want to settle for yesterday. I don't want to settle 310 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 2: for smoke. I want the real thing. What if you 311 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 2: want the real thing? 312 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 3: Give him a shout. We need to get a little. 313 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:29,120 Speaker 3: I'm desperate. I want more of him. I want what's 314 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 3: twenty fourth thing? 315 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 4: But he answered and said, I was not sent except 316 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 4: to the lost sheep of the House of Israel. 317 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:38,120 Speaker 3: Real. 318 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 4: But he answered and said I was not sent except 319 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 4: to the lost sheep of the House of Israel. 320 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 2: So now Jesus is adding to her trial, Jesus saying 321 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 2: you made the trip for nothing, You made the long 322 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 2: journey for nothing. 323 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 3: I'm not here for you. 324 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 2: You come to me for help, But I'm telling you 325 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 2: I've not come for you, have come for the lost 326 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 2: sheep of Israel. At that point, we'd be like, God 327 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 2: definitely doesn't want me to have it. Yeah, this isn't 328 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 2: God's will. This is an interesting place. This is a 329 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 2: very strategic place. Here because a lot of times we 330 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 2: take see, God isn't telling her no, He's just saying 331 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 2: to her, let me state why I'm here. Let me 332 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 2: tell you why I'm here. And what's interesting is sometimes 333 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 2: you're seeking God for something, You're chasing God after something, 334 00:22:55,200 --> 00:23:00,880 Speaker 2: you're moving, You're you're running after Jesus. He doesn't give 335 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 2: you a no, but he doesn't tell you exactly what 336 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 2: you want to hear. And a lot of times we 337 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 2: begin to abandon the one thing because we think it's 338 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 2: not God's will. And I want you to understand something. 339 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 2: If you're going to experience everything God has for you, 340 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,879 Speaker 2: you need to learn to listen to the voice of God. 341 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 2: You need to learn to be a doer of the word, 342 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 2: not just to hear.
