  • You to get hold of that.
  • 00:00:52.942 --> 00:00:54.310
  • So i've been talking about
  • 00:00:54.310 --> 00:00:55.845
  • The four keys to staying full of
  • 00:00:55.912 --> 00:00:58.081
  • The four keys to staying full of god from romans 1:21. it says,
  • 00:00:58.148 --> 00:01:01.417
  • God from romans 1:21. it says, because that, when they knew
  • 00:01:01.484 --> 00:01:03.019
  • Because that, when they knew god, they glorified him not as
  • 00:01:03.086 --> 00:01:05.688
  • God, they glorified him not as god. that's the first thing that
  • 00:01:05.755 --> 00:01:07.624
  • God. that's the first thing that people do that diminishes or
  • 00:01:07.690 --> 00:01:10.360
  • People do that diminishes or stops, or hinders the flow of
  • 00:01:10.426 --> 00:01:13.396
  • Stops, or hinders the flow of god in their life. they don't
  • 00:01:13.463 --> 00:01:14.697
  • God in their life. they don't glorify him as god. the second
  • 00:01:14.764 --> 00:01:17.066
  • Glorify him as god. the second thing is, they aren't thankful;
  • 00:01:17.133 --> 00:01:19.402
  • Thing is, they aren't thankful; but became vain in their
  • 00:01:19.469 --> 00:01:20.703
  • But became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish
  • 00:01:20.770 --> 00:01:22.872
  • Imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. so you have
  • 00:01:22.939 --> 00:01:24.974
  • To glorify god, you have to be
  • 00:01:25.041 --> 00:01:26.576
  • To glorify god, you have to be thankful, you have to use your
  • 00:01:26.643 --> 00:01:27.911
  • Thankful, you have to use your imagination in a proper way. and
  • 00:01:27.977 --> 00:01:30.446
  • Imagination in a proper way. and if you'll do that, your heart
  • 00:01:30.513 --> 00:01:31.648
  • If you'll do that, your heart will stay sensitive to god. but
  • 00:01:31.714 --> 00:01:33.183
  • Will stay sensitive to god. but on the other hand, if you don't
  • 00:01:33.249 --> 00:01:35.018
  • On the other hand, if you don't glorify god, if you aren't
  • 00:01:35.084 --> 00:01:37.253
  • Glorify god, if you aren't thankful, if your imagination
  • 00:01:37.320 --> 00:01:39.389
  • Thankful, if your imagination becomes vain, it's just
  • 00:01:39.455 --> 00:01:41.391
  • Becomes vain, it's just automatic that your heart
  • 00:01:41.457 --> 00:01:43.092
  • Automatic that your heart becomes hardened towards god and
  • 00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:45.795
  • Becomes hardened towards god and you are the one that stops the
  • 00:01:45.862 --> 00:01:47.664
  • You are the one that stops the flow of god's goodness and
  • 00:01:47.730 --> 00:01:49.465
  • Flow of god's goodness and blessing and joy and peace in
  • 00:01:49.532 --> 00:01:51.734
  • Blessing and joy and peace in your life. and so, i've been
  • 00:01:51.801 --> 00:01:54.404
  • Your life. and so, i've been turning these around and using
  • 00:01:54.470 --> 00:01:55.738
  • Turning these around and using them in a positive way, saying
  • 00:01:55.805 --> 00:01:57.140
  • Them in a positive way, saying that the number one thing that
  • 00:01:57.207 --> 00:01:59.008
  • That the number one thing that we need to do to just keep the
  • 00:01:59.075 --> 00:02:01.878
  • We need to do to just keep the joy and the victory and the love
  • 00:02:01.945 --> 00:02:05.148
  • Joy and the victory and the love and all of the things that god
  • 00:02:05.215 --> 00:02:06.649
  • And all of the things that god gives, the number one thing you
  • 00:02:06.716 --> 00:02:07.951
  • Gives, the number one thing you need to do to keep that current
  • 00:02:08.017 --> 00:02:09.886
  • Need to do to keep that current is you need to value god,
  • 00:02:09.953 --> 00:02:11.421
  • Is you need to value god, glorify god, esteem or render
  • 00:02:11.487 --> 00:02:13.957
  • Glorify god, esteem or render him valuable in your life. you
  • 00:02:14.023 --> 00:02:16.993
  • Him valuable in your life. you know, if you could imagine right
  • 00:02:17.060 --> 00:02:18.228
  • Know, if you could imagine right now that you had a million
  • 00:02:18.294 --> 00:02:19.762
  • Now that you had a million dollars in cash, you'd be crazy
  • 00:02:19.829 --> 00:02:24.367
  • Dollars in cash, you'd be crazy to even leave that in your car
  • 00:02:24.434 --> 00:02:26.135
  • To even leave that in your car and go off, even if you locked
  • 00:02:26.202 --> 00:02:27.537
  • And go off, even if you locked the car. but let's say for sure,
  • 00:02:27.604 --> 00:02:30.707
  • The car. but let's say for sure, if you didn't lock the car and
  • 00:02:30.773 --> 00:02:33.243
  • If you didn't lock the car and you leave a million dollars, you
  • 00:02:33.309 --> 00:02:35.912
  • You leave a million dollars, you know, just sitting out on the,
  • 00:02:35.979 --> 00:02:37.714
  • Know, just sitting out on the, on the front seat of your car,
  • 00:02:37.780 --> 00:02:40.049
  • On the front seat of your car, man, you're asking for trouble.
  • 00:02:40.116 --> 00:02:42.218
  • Man, you're asking for trouble. that means that you didn't
  • 00:02:42.285 --> 00:02:43.219
  • That means that you didn't really value it. most people
  • 00:02:43.286 --> 00:02:45.521
  • Really value it. most people wouldn't leave a dollar. they,
  • 00:02:45.588 --> 00:02:46.756
  • Wouldn't leave a dollar. they, they wouldn't leave their car
  • 00:02:46.823 --> 00:02:48.124
  • They wouldn't leave their car unlocked. but especially, if you
  • 00:02:48.191 --> 00:02:50.927
  • Unlocked. but especially, if you had something that was worth a
  • 00:02:50.994 --> 00:02:52.161
  • Had something that was worth a lot of value, you would probably
  • 00:02:52.228 --> 00:02:53.930
  • Lot of value, you would probably lock the car, you'd probably
  • 00:02:53.997 --> 00:02:55.398
  • Lock the car, you'd probably hire somebody to stand there and
  • 00:02:55.465 --> 00:02:57.100
  • Hire somebody to stand there and watch it to make sure that
  • 00:02:57.166 --> 00:02:58.735
  • Watch it to make sure that nobody came. if you put value on
  • 00:02:58.801 --> 00:03:01.004
  • Nobody came. if you put value on something, you're going to treat
  • 00:03:01.070 --> 00:03:02.372
  • Something, you're going to treat it differently than if you just
  • 00:03:02.438 --> 00:03:04.574
  • It differently than if you just have a dime that's on the
  • 00:03:04.641 --> 00:03:05.742
  • Have a dime that's on the floorboard and you see it, but
  • 00:03:05.808 --> 00:03:07.343
  • Floorboard and you see it, but oh, who's going to break into
  • 00:03:07.410 --> 00:03:08.444
  • Oh, who's going to break into your car for a dime? when you
  • 00:03:08.511 --> 00:03:10.747
  • Your car for a dime? when you value something, you protect it,
  • 00:03:10.813 --> 00:03:12.682
  • Value something, you protect it, you take care of it differently.
  • 00:03:12.749 --> 00:03:15.251
  • You take care of it differently. and you know what? this is one
  • 00:03:15.318 --> 00:03:16.319
  • And you know what? this is one of the things that i've done. i
  • 00:03:16.386 --> 00:03:18.621
  • Of the things that i've done. i just appreciate. when god
  • 00:03:18.688 --> 00:03:20.223
  • Just appreciate. when god touched my life in 1968, i have
  • 00:03:20.290 --> 00:03:23.393
  • Touched my life in 1968, i have appreciated, i have valued what
  • 00:03:23.459 --> 00:03:26.129
  • Appreciated, i have valued what he's done so much, that man, i
  • 00:03:26.195 --> 00:03:29.565
  • He's done so much, that man, i have... i've never let it go.
  • 00:03:29.632 --> 00:03:32.201
  • Have... i've never let it go. and you know, the second thing
  • 00:03:32.268 --> 00:03:33.336
  • And you know, the second thing in this list, we just began to
  • 00:03:33.403 --> 00:03:34.737
  • In this list, we just began to talk about this yesterday, is
  • 00:03:34.804 --> 00:03:36.906
  • Talk about this yesterday, is that you have to be thankful.
  • 00:03:36.973 --> 00:03:38.975
  • That you have to be thankful. and i used psalms, chapter 69, i
  • 00:03:39.042 --> 00:03:41.344
  • And i used psalms, chapter 69, i believe it's verse 30, where it
  • 00:03:41.411 --> 00:03:43.313
  • Believe it's verse 30, where it says that you magnify the lord
  • 00:03:43.379 --> 00:03:45.481
  • Says that you magnify the lord with thanksgiving. so when you
  • 00:03:45.548 --> 00:03:47.850
  • With thanksgiving. so when you are thankful, it makes you focus
  • 00:03:47.917 --> 00:03:51.287
  • Are thankful, it makes you focus on what god has done instead of
  • 00:03:51.354 --> 00:03:53.189
  • On what god has done instead of the negative things that the
  • 00:03:53.256 --> 00:03:54.490
  • The negative things that the devil or people are trying to do
  • 00:03:54.557 --> 00:03:56.759
  • Devil or people are trying to do to you. and i've already made
  • 00:03:56.826 --> 00:03:58.695
  • To you. and i've already made this point multiple times, but
  • 00:03:58.761 --> 00:04:00.229
  • This point multiple times, but whatever you focus your
  • 00:04:00.296 --> 00:04:01.464
  • Whatever you focus your attention upon, your mind is
  • 00:04:01.531 --> 00:04:03.266
  • Attention upon, your mind is like a magnifying glass. it just
  • 00:04:03.333 --> 00:04:04.801
  • Like a magnifying glass. it just makes it bigger and bigger and
  • 00:04:04.867 --> 00:04:06.102
  • Makes it bigger and bigger and bigger. and most of us focus on
  • 00:04:06.169 --> 00:04:08.271
  • Bigger. and most of us focus on these little tiny things, and we
  • 00:04:08.338 --> 00:04:10.106
  • These little tiny things, and we just get them so big that the
  • 00:04:10.173 --> 00:04:11.674
  • Just get them so big that the devil's beating our brains out
  • 00:04:11.741 --> 00:04:13.443
  • Devil's beating our brains out with, you know, a little
  • 00:04:13.509 --> 00:04:14.911
  • With, you know, a little toothpick. it's something that's
  • 00:04:14.977 --> 00:04:16.279
  • Toothpick. it's something that's insignificant. here's another
  • 00:04:16.346 --> 00:04:18.147
  • Insignificant. here's another thing about thanksgiving.
  • 00:04:18.214 --> 00:04:20.216
  • Thing about thanksgiving. thanksgiving makes you remember.
  • 00:04:20.283 --> 00:04:24.554
  • Thanksgiving makes you remember. now, this is really, really
  • 00:04:24.620 --> 00:04:27.023
  • Now, this is really, really important. i don't think that
  • 00:04:27.090 --> 00:04:28.024
  • Important. i don't think that most people appreciate exactly
  • 00:04:28.091 --> 00:04:30.927
  • Most people appreciate exactly how important your memory is.
  • 00:04:30.993 --> 00:04:34.797
  • How important your memory is. let me share this with you
  • 00:04:34.864 --> 00:04:35.832
  • Out of 2 peter, and
  • 00:04:35.898 --> 00:04:37.567
  • Out of 2 peter, and in chapter 1, and in verse
  • 00:04:37.633 --> 00:04:40.336
  • In chapter 1, and in verse 12. this is peter talking.
  • 00:04:40.403 --> 00:04:42.305
  • 12. this is peter talking. and he said, wherefore
  • 00:04:42.372 --> 00:04:43.339
  • And he said, wherefore i will not be negligent to put
  • 00:04:43.406 --> 00:04:45.808
  • I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of
  • 00:04:45.875 --> 00:04:48.644
  • You always in remembrance of these things, though ye know
  • 00:04:48.711 --> 00:04:50.046
  • These things, though ye know them, and be established in the
  • 00:04:50.113 --> 00:04:51.481
  • Them, and be established in the present truth. in other words,
  • 00:04:51.547 --> 00:04:53.015
  • Present truth. in other words, they knew some of the truths he
  • 00:04:53.082 --> 00:04:54.517
  • They knew some of the truths he was saying. but he says, i'm
  • 00:04:54.584 --> 00:04:55.618
  • Was saying. but he says, i'm reminding you of this. and he
  • 00:04:55.685 --> 00:04:58.020
  • Reminding you of this. and he goes on to say, i think it is
  • 00:04:58.087 --> 00:05:00.156
  • Goes on to say, i think it is meet, as long as i am in this
  • 00:05:00.223 --> 00:05:02.024
  • Meet, as long as i am in this tabernacle, to stir you
  • 00:05:02.091 --> 00:05:04.260
  • Tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in way
  • 00:05:04.327 --> 00:05:07.330
  • Up by putting you in way of remembrance. did
  • 00:05:07.397 --> 00:05:09.365
  • You know memory is a
  • 00:05:09.432 --> 00:05:10.833
  • You know memory is a powerful, powerful force.
  • 00:05:10.900 --> 00:05:13.469
  • Powerful, powerful force. there are some people that we,
  • 00:05:13.536 --> 00:05:14.704
  • There are some people that we, we can see this on the negative
  • 00:05:14.771 --> 00:05:16.406
  • We can see this on the negative side usually better than we can
  • 00:05:16.472 --> 00:05:17.974
  • Side usually better than we can see things on the positive side.
  • 00:05:18.040 --> 00:05:19.876
  • See things on the positive side. but there are people that have
  • 00:05:19.942 --> 00:05:21.043
  • But there are people that have had traumatic things happen to
  • 00:05:21.110 --> 00:05:23.379
  • Had traumatic things happen to them, and they just become
  • 00:05:23.446 --> 00:05:26.182
  • Them, and they just become fearful of ever... anything that
  • 00:05:26.249 --> 00:05:28.251
  • Fearful of ever... anything that ever reminds them of that. i was
  • 00:05:28.317 --> 00:05:31.053
  • Ever reminds them of that. i was talking to someone just
  • 00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:32.422
  • Talking to someone just yesterday that had something
  • 00:05:32.488 --> 00:05:34.424
  • Yesterday that had something really traumatic happen in their
  • 00:05:34.490 --> 00:05:36.492
  • Really traumatic happen in their life, and because of it, man,
  • 00:05:36.559 --> 00:05:37.960
  • Life, and because of it, man, they had just never gotten over
  • 00:05:38.027 --> 00:05:39.395
  • They had just never gotten over it, and it's 20, 30 years ago,
  • 00:05:39.462 --> 00:05:41.364
  • It, and it's 20, 30 years ago, and yet they're still
  • 00:05:41.431 --> 00:05:42.298
  • And yet they're still traumatized by that. and
  • 00:05:42.365 --> 00:05:44.000
  • Traumatized by that. and anything that reminds them of
  • 00:05:44.066 --> 00:05:45.635
  • Anything that reminds them of that, they just... it affects
  • 00:05:45.701 --> 00:05:47.336
  • That, they just... it affects them. memory is a powerful
  • 00:05:47.403 --> 00:05:49.138
  • Them. memory is a powerful force. and here's another
  • 00:05:49.205 --> 00:05:50.706
  • Force. and here's another passage that goes along
  • 00:05:50.773 --> 00:05:52.408
  • Passage that goes along with that in the same book,
  • 00:05:52.475 --> 00:05:53.876
  • In 2 peter, chapter 3, verse 1.
  • 00:05:53.943 --> 00:05:56.212
  • In 2 peter, chapter 3, verse 1. it says, this second epistle,
  • 00:05:56.279 --> 00:05:57.647
  • It says, this second epistle, beloved, i now write unto
  • 00:05:57.713 --> 00:05:59.916
  • Beloved, i now write unto you; in both which i stir
  • 00:05:59.982 --> 00:06:01.551
  • You; in both which i stir up your pure minds by
  • 00:06:01.617 --> 00:06:03.686
  • Up your pure minds by way of remembrance.
  • 00:06:03.753 --> 00:06:06.322
  • Did you know you stir up a
  • 00:06:06.389 --> 00:06:07.890
  • Did you know you stir up a person's mind through
  • 00:06:07.957 --> 00:06:09.192
  • Remembering? you know,
  • 00:06:09.692 --> 00:06:11.027
  • Yesterday i gave an example
  • 00:06:11.027 --> 00:06:12.495
  • Of a person who was just
  • 00:06:12.495 --> 00:06:13.596
  • Facing a relatively small
  • 00:06:13.596 --> 00:06:15.731
  • Problem, but they had
  • 00:06:15.731 --> 00:06:16.833
  • Just focused on it until it
  • 00:06:16.833 --> 00:06:18.534
  • Grew to this huge problem.
  • 00:06:18.534 --> 00:06:22.438
  • And what i did was just
  • 00:06:22.505 --> 00:06:24.207
  • And what i did was just remind them of that god
  • 00:06:24.273 --> 00:06:26.209
  • Remind them of that god had saved them out of a
  • 00:06:26.275 --> 00:06:27.376
  • Had saved them out of a terrible life. they'd been saved
  • 00:06:27.443 --> 00:06:28.978
  • Terrible life. they'd been saved from drugs, out of the prison
  • 00:06:29.045 --> 00:06:30.913
  • From drugs, out of the prison system, and just on and on. and
  • 00:06:30.980 --> 00:06:32.381
  • System, and just on and on. and when they started remembering
  • 00:06:32.448 --> 00:06:34.517
  • When they started remembering what god had done in the past,
  • 00:06:34.584 --> 00:06:36.919
  • What god had done in the past, well, then immediately they had
  • 00:06:36.986 --> 00:06:38.454
  • Well, then immediately they had faith for the present. they
  • 00:06:38.521 --> 00:06:41.424
  • Faith for the present. they recognized that the problem they
  • 00:06:41.491 --> 00:06:43.125
  • Recognized that the problem they were dealing with was nothing in
  • 00:06:43.192 --> 00:06:44.894
  • Were dealing with was nothing in comparison to what they'd
  • 00:06:44.961 --> 00:06:45.895
  • Comparison to what they'd already been through. did you
  • 00:06:45.962 --> 00:06:47.196
  • Already been through. did you know over in psalms 78 and
  • 00:06:47.263 --> 00:06:49.165
  • Know over in psalms 78 and psalms 106 and 107, and there's
  • 00:06:49.232 --> 00:06:51.634
  • Psalms 106 and 107, and there's a number of times that it says
  • 00:06:51.701 --> 00:06:53.002
  • A number of times that it says this, but the children of
  • 00:06:53.069 --> 00:06:54.437
  • This, but the children of israel, when they came out of
  • 00:06:54.504 --> 00:06:56.172
  • Israel, when they came out of the land of egypt, it says they
  • 00:06:56.239 --> 00:06:57.807
  • The land of egypt, it says they soon forgot what god had done
  • 00:06:57.874 --> 00:07:01.043
  • Soon forgot what god had done for them. and, you know, that's
  • 00:07:01.110 --> 00:07:03.145
  • For them. and, you know, that's just... in a way that's hard for
  • 00:07:03.212 --> 00:07:05.381
  • Just... in a way that's hard for us to believe. they saw the ten
  • 00:07:05.448 --> 00:07:06.949
  • Us to believe. they saw the ten plagues where the water was
  • 00:07:07.016 --> 00:07:09.085
  • Plagues where the water was turned into blood, the lice came
  • 00:07:09.151 --> 00:07:11.554
  • Turned into blood, the lice came up in the land, frogs came up,
  • 00:07:11.621 --> 00:07:13.923
  • Up in the land, frogs came up, the m... rain came, the hail
  • 00:07:13.990 --> 00:07:15.925
  • The m... rain came, the hail came, and fire ran across the
  • 00:07:15.992 --> 00:07:18.094
  • Came, and fire ran across the ground. the firstborn were
  • 00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:20.162
  • Ground. the firstborn were killed. and then they saw the
  • 00:07:20.229 --> 00:07:21.564
  • Killed. and then they saw the red sea parted. did you know
  • 00:07:21.631 --> 00:07:23.533
  • Red sea parted. did you know within three days of crossing
  • 00:07:23.599 --> 00:07:25.902
  • Within three days of crossing through the red sea and seeing
  • 00:07:25.968 --> 00:07:27.403
  • Through the red sea and seeing all of the egyptians drowned,
  • 00:07:27.470 --> 00:07:29.372
  • All of the egyptians drowned, they began to say, god can't
  • 00:07:29.438 --> 00:07:31.707
  • They began to say, god can't give us water here in this
  • 00:07:31.774 --> 00:07:33.576
  • Give us water here in this wilderness. and it specifically
  • 00:07:33.643 --> 00:07:35.244
  • Wilderness. and it specifically says in psalm 78, that they soon
  • 00:07:35.311 --> 00:07:37.914
  • Says in psalm 78, that they soon forgot the things that god had
  • 00:07:37.980 --> 00:07:40.583
  • Forgot the things that god had done for them. did you know that
  • 00:07:40.650 --> 00:07:42.652
  • Done for them. did you know that memory is a powerful force, and
  • 00:07:42.718 --> 00:07:45.187
  • Memory is a powerful force, and thanksgiving and memory are
  • 00:07:45.254 --> 00:07:47.890
  • Thanksgiving and memory are linked together. you can't be
  • 00:07:47.957 --> 00:07:49.659
  • Linked together. you can't be thankful without remembering.
  • 00:07:49.725 --> 00:07:52.562
  • Thankful without remembering. and you can't remember what god
  • 00:07:52.628 --> 00:07:54.830
  • And you can't remember what god has done... now, you can
  • 00:07:54.897 --> 00:07:55.665
  • Has done... now, you can remember the negative things
  • 00:07:55.731 --> 00:07:56.999
  • Remember the negative things that the devil has done, but you
  • 00:07:57.066 --> 00:07:58.668
  • That the devil has done, but you can't remember the positive
  • 00:07:58.734 --> 00:08:00.303
  • Can't remember the positive things that god has done in your
  • 00:08:00.369 --> 00:08:01.604
  • Things that god has done in your life without it causing
  • 00:08:01.671 --> 00:08:03.706
  • Life without it causing thanksgiving. thanksgiving is
  • 00:08:03.773 --> 00:08:05.942
  • Thanksgiving. thanksgiving is just an automatic byproduct.
  • 00:08:06.008 --> 00:08:09.045
  • Just an automatic byproduct. once you get your eyes on the
  • 00:08:09.111 --> 00:08:10.713
  • Once you get your eyes on the lord and you think about what
  • 00:08:10.780 --> 00:08:12.148
  • Lord and you think about what he's doing, thanksgiving comes
  • 00:08:12.214 --> 00:08:13.950
  • He's doing, thanksgiving comes out. you know, if you were
  • 00:08:14.016 --> 00:08:15.184
  • Out. you know, if you were believing god for a million
  • 00:08:15.251 --> 00:08:16.419
  • Believing god for a million dollars and i came up to you and
  • 00:08:16.485 --> 00:08:18.387
  • Dollars and i came up to you and i said, here's a million
  • 00:08:18.454 --> 00:08:19.422
  • I said, here's a million dollars, there would be some
  • 00:08:19.488 --> 00:08:21.057
  • Dollars, there would be some form of thanksgiving. now,
  • 00:08:21.123 --> 00:08:23.225
  • Form of thanksgiving. now, people are different, and some
  • 00:08:23.292 --> 00:08:24.360
  • People are different, and some people might cry, some people
  • 00:08:24.427 --> 00:08:26.062
  • People might cry, some people might just be so shocked they
  • 00:08:26.128 --> 00:08:27.830
  • Might just be so shocked they couldn't do anything. but there
  • 00:08:27.897 --> 00:08:29.865
  • Couldn't do anything. but there would be some form of
  • 00:08:29.932 --> 00:08:31.934
  • Would be some form of thanksgiving. once your
  • 00:08:32.001 --> 00:08:33.836
  • Thanksgiving. once your faith is complete, there
  • 00:08:33.903 --> 00:08:35.805
  • Faith is complete, there will always be thanksgiving.
  • 00:08:35.871 --> 00:08:38.007
  • Colossians, chapter 2,
  • 00:08:38.074 --> 00:08:39.241
  • Colossians, chapter 2, verses 6 and 7 says, as you
  • 00:08:39.308 --> 00:08:41.143
  • Verses 6 and 7 says, as you have therefore received
  • 00:08:41.210 --> 00:08:42.244
  • Have therefore received christ jesus the lord, so walk
  • 00:08:42.311 --> 00:08:44.614
  • Christ jesus the lord, so walk ye in him: rooted and built up
  • 00:08:44.680 --> 00:08:46.515
  • Ye in him: rooted and built up in him, and established in the
  • 00:08:46.582 --> 00:08:48.250
  • In him, and established in the faith, as ye have been taught.
  • 00:08:48.317 --> 00:08:50.052
  • Faith, as ye have been taught. abounding therein with
  • 00:08:50.119 --> 00:08:52.254
  • Abounding therein with thanksgiving. when it says
  • 00:08:52.321 --> 00:08:54.156
  • Thanksgiving. when it says abounding therein, it's talking
  • 00:08:54.223 --> 00:08:55.625
  • Abounding therein, it's talking about you abound in faith with
  • 00:08:55.691 --> 00:08:57.927
  • About you abound in faith with thanksgiving. if there isn't
  • 00:08:57.994 --> 00:08:59.862
  • Thanksgiving in your life, then
  • 00:08:59.929 --> 00:09:01.931
  • Thanksgiving in your life, then your faith isn't abounding.
  • 00:09:01.998 --> 00:09:03.666
  • Again, you couldn't see the
  • 00:09:05.534 --> 00:09:07.036
  • Again, you couldn't see the completion of something you were
  • 00:09:07.103 --> 00:09:08.437
  • Completion of something you were believing for without there
  • 00:09:08.504 --> 00:09:09.538
  • Believing for without there being some form of thanksgiving.
  • 00:09:09.605 --> 00:09:12.308
  • Being some form of thanksgiving. so if your faith is complete,
  • 00:09:12.375 --> 00:09:14.610
  • So if your faith is complete, there will always be
  • 00:09:14.677 --> 00:09:15.544
  • There will always be thanksgiving. if there isn't
  • 00:09:15.611 --> 00:09:17.313
  • Thanksgiving. if there isn't thanksgiving, your faith isn't
  • 00:09:17.380 --> 00:09:19.348
  • Thanksgiving, your faith isn't complete. you're looking at the
  • 00:09:19.415 --> 00:09:21.250
  • Complete. you're looking at the negative, and that's ministering
  • 00:09:21.317 --> 00:09:22.752
  • Negative, and that's ministering doubt and unbelief and
  • 00:09:22.818 --> 00:09:23.953
  • Doubt and unbelief and discouragement to you. but when
  • 00:09:24.020 --> 00:09:26.155
  • Discouragement to you. but when you get into thanksgiving, it
  • 00:09:26.222 --> 00:09:27.790
  • You get into thanksgiving, it just changes everything. so this
  • 00:09:27.857 --> 00:09:30.259
  • Just changes everything. so this is the second thing in this
  • 00:09:30.326 --> 00:09:31.627
  • Is the second thing in this list. the first thing is you
  • 00:09:31.694 --> 00:09:32.995
  • List. the first thing is you have to glorify god, which
  • 00:09:33.062 --> 00:09:35.064
  • Have to glorify god, which really you can't separate these
  • 00:09:35.131 --> 00:09:36.799
  • Really you can't separate these things except for the purpose of
  • 00:09:36.866 --> 00:09:38.234
  • Things except for the purpose of just discussing them. but as it
  • 00:09:38.300 --> 00:09:40.236
  • Just discussing them. but as it goes on to say that when... in
  • 00:09:40.302 --> 00:09:41.637
  • Goes on to say that when... in psalms, chapter 69, verse 30,
  • 00:09:41.704 --> 00:09:43.973
  • Psalms, chapter 69, verse 30, you magnify god with
  • 00:09:44.040 --> 00:09:46.042
  • You magnify god with thanksgiving. and this is part
  • 00:09:46.108 --> 00:09:47.643
  • Thanksgiving. and this is part of valuing god. it means to
  • 00:09:47.710 --> 00:09:49.979
  • Of valuing god. it means to magnify. that's what that exact
  • 00:09:50.046 --> 00:09:52.081
  • Magnify. that's what that exact word, the greek word was
  • 00:09:52.148 --> 00:09:53.949
  • Word, the greek word was translated, in romans chapter
  • 00:09:54.016 --> 00:09:55.885
  • Translated, in romans chapter 11, verse 13. so to value god
  • 00:09:55.951 --> 00:09:58.854
  • 11, verse 13. so to value god means to magnify god. you can't
  • 00:09:58.921 --> 00:10:00.990
  • Means to magnify god. you can't magnify god without
  • 00:10:01.057 --> 00:10:02.658
  • Magnify god without thanksgiving, and so
  • 00:10:02.725 --> 00:10:04.994
  • Thanksgiving, and so thanksgiving should be a part of
  • 00:10:05.061 --> 00:10:07.897
  • Thanksgiving should be a part of our lives. you know, the prayer
  • 00:10:07.963 --> 00:10:09.732
  • Our lives. you know, the prayer that jesus taught in matthew,
  • 00:10:09.799 --> 00:10:11.367
  • That jesus taught in matthew, chapter 6, commonly
  • 00:10:11.434 --> 00:10:12.768
  • Chapter 6, commonly called the lord's prayer,
  • 00:10:12.835 --> 00:10:14.470
  • Says, our father which art
  • 00:10:14.537 --> 00:10:15.805
  • Says, our father which art in heaven, hallowed be thy
  • 00:10:15.871 --> 00:10:17.440
  • In heaven, hallowed be thy name. you're glorifying god.
  • 00:10:17.506 --> 00:10:19.575
  • Name. you're glorifying god. you're placing value on him. and
  • 00:10:19.642 --> 00:10:22.144
  • You're placing value on him. and it says, thy kingdom come. thy
  • 00:10:22.211 --> 00:10:24.046
  • It says, thy kingdom come. thy will be done on earth, as it is
  • 00:10:24.113 --> 00:10:26.048
  • Will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. give us this day our
  • 00:10:26.115 --> 00:10:27.550
  • In heaven. give us this day our daily bread. and forgive us our
  • 00:10:27.616 --> 00:10:29.118
  • Daily bread. and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our
  • 00:10:29.185 --> 00:10:30.319
  • Debts, as we forgive our debtors. and lead us not into
  • 00:10:30.386 --> 00:10:32.188
  • Debtors. and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us
  • 00:10:32.254 --> 00:10:33.622
  • Temptation, but deliver us from evil: for thine is the
  • 00:10:33.689 --> 00:10:35.925
  • From evil: for thine is the kingdom, and the power,
  • 00:10:35.991 --> 00:10:37.159
  • Kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. so it
  • 00:10:37.226 --> 00:10:38.694
  • Starts with valuing god;
  • 00:10:38.761 --> 00:10:40.496
  • Starts with valuing god; our father which art in
  • 00:10:40.563 --> 00:10:41.497
  • Our father which art in heaven, hallowed be your
  • 00:10:41.564 --> 00:10:42.798
  • Heaven, hallowed be your name. it ends with, thine is the
  • 00:10:42.865 --> 00:10:45.334
  • Name. it ends with, thine is the kingdom, the power, and
  • 00:10:45.401 --> 00:10:46.335
  • Kingdom, the power, and the glory, for ever. you are
  • 00:10:46.402 --> 00:10:47.737
  • The glory, for ever. you are glorifying and magnifying god at
  • 00:10:47.803 --> 00:10:49.705

  • 00:13:08.177 --> 00:13:10.279
  • Just a light affliction. and it's not because he didn't have
  • 00:13:10.346 --> 00:13:12.181
  • It's not because he didn't have problems. it's because of the
  • 00:13:12.248 --> 00:13:13.515

  • Sufferings. who wants to know the fellowship of his
  • 00:13:50.819 --> 00:13:51.854
  • The fellowship of his sufferings? it's because even
  • 00:13:51.921 --> 00:13:54.123
  • Sufferings? it's because even though he was being persecuted,
  • 00:13:54.189 --> 00:13:55.557
  • Though he was being persecuted, stoned, and left for dead and
  • 00:13:55.624 --> 00:13:56.926

  • 00:14:08.404 --> 00:14:09.972
  • So much that he actually looked forward to being compensated by

  • Praising god. they were enjoying his presence right in the midst
  • 00:14:29.692 --> 00:14:31.327
  • His presence right in the midst of their suffering, and it was
  • 00:14:31.393 --> 00:14:32.828
  • Of their suffering, and it was so often that he suffered, and
  • 00:14:32.895 --> 00:14:35.431
  • So often that he suffered, and also so often that god
  • 00:14:35.497 --> 00:14:37.366
  • Also so often that god compensated him, that he
  • 00:14:37.433 --> 00:14:39.234
  • Compensated him, that he actually looked forward to the
  • 00:14:39.301 --> 00:14:40.502
  • Actually looked forward to the fellowship of suffering for
  • 00:14:40.569 --> 00:14:43.305
  • Fellowship of suffering for christ because he knew that
  • 00:14:43.372 --> 00:14:44.640
  • Christ because he knew that god's... god's supply was
  • 00:14:44.707 --> 00:14:46.809
  • God's... god's supply was greater than the need. see, when
  • 00:14:46.875 --> 00:14:49.611
  • Greater than the need. see, when you get like that, and when you
  • 00:14:49.678 --> 00:14:52.014
  • You get like that, and when you are magnifying god, he looked
  • 00:14:52.081 --> 00:14:54.616
  • Are magnifying god, he looked past his suffering, and he just
  • 00:14:54.683 --> 00:14:57.219
  • Past his suffering, and he just said, it's a light affliction.
  • 00:14:57.286 --> 00:14:59.154
  • Not because he didn't have
  • 00:15:00.689 --> 00:15:01.724
  • Not because he didn't have problems, but because of the way
  • 00:15:01.790 --> 00:15:03.058
  • Problems, but because of the way he looked at things. and here's,
  • 00:15:03.125 --> 00:15:05.160
  • He looked at things. and here's, here's two reasons that
  • 00:15:05.227 --> 00:15:06.762
  • Here's two reasons that he gives right here, why it
  • 00:15:06.829 --> 00:15:07.930
  • He gives right here, why it was just a light affliction.
  • 00:15:07.997 --> 00:15:09.531
  • He said, our light affliction,
  • 00:15:09.598 --> 00:15:10.833
  • He said, our light affliction, which is but for a moment.
  • 00:15:10.899 --> 00:15:12.501
  • Did you know that's one
  • 00:15:13.902 --> 00:15:14.636
  • Of the things that will
  • 00:15:14.703 --> 00:15:15.604
  • Of the things that will really shrink your problems
  • 00:15:15.671 --> 00:15:16.939
  • Really shrink your problems down, is when you recognize that
  • 00:15:17.006 --> 00:15:18.440
  • Down, is when you recognize that it's just temporary. it's not
  • 00:15:18.507 --> 00:15:20.943
  • It's just temporary. it's not going to be forever. i mean, if
  • 00:15:21.010 --> 00:15:24.013
  • Going to be forever. i mean, if you struggle for a decade being
  • 00:15:24.079 --> 00:15:26.348
  • You struggle for a decade being sick, did you know some day
  • 00:15:26.415 --> 00:15:27.516
  • Sick, did you know some day we're going to be in heaven and
  • 00:15:27.583 --> 00:15:28.584
  • We're going to be in heaven and we're going to be in heaven for
  • 00:15:28.650 --> 00:15:29.685
  • We're going to be in heaven for eternity. this life is like the
  • 00:15:29.752 --> 00:15:31.420
  • Eternity. this life is like the snap of a finger compared to
  • 00:15:31.487 --> 00:15:33.922
  • Snap of a finger compared to eternity. so whatever you're
  • 00:15:33.989 --> 00:15:36.158
  • Eternity. so whatever you're suffering here, if you were to
  • 00:15:36.225 --> 00:15:37.426
  • Suffering here, if you were to just look at things properly,
  • 00:15:37.493 --> 00:15:40.095
  • Just look at things properly, you would recognize, god, this
  • 00:15:40.162 --> 00:15:41.430
  • You would recognize, god, this is just temporary. it's just for
  • 00:15:41.497 --> 00:15:43.465
  • Is just temporary. it's just for a moment. man, that's awesome.
  • 00:15:43.532 --> 00:15:47.202
  • A moment. man, that's awesome. and i know that there's people
  • 00:15:47.269 --> 00:15:48.237
  • And i know that there's people watching this thinking, what, a
  • 00:15:48.303 --> 00:15:49.538
  • Watching this thinking, what, a moment? man, a year is a long
  • 00:15:49.605 --> 00:15:51.507
  • Moment? man, a year is a long time. i don't want to suffer for
  • 00:15:51.573 --> 00:15:52.941
  • Time. i don't want to suffer for a year. well, i do believe that
  • 00:15:53.008 --> 00:15:54.710
  • A year. well, i do believe that god can give you power and
  • 00:15:54.777 --> 00:15:56.945
  • God can give you power and victory so that you can overcome
  • 00:15:57.012 --> 00:16:00.115
  • Victory so that you can overcome whatever you're going through.
  • 00:16:00.182 --> 00:16:01.283
  • Whatever you're going through. but really, again, if you enter
  • 00:16:01.350 --> 00:16:03.786
  • But really, again, if you enter into his gates with thanksgiving
  • 00:16:03.852 --> 00:16:05.354
  • Into his gates with thanksgiving and go to praising him, thinking
  • 00:16:05.421 --> 00:16:07.356
  • And go to praising him, thinking about, that in my father's house
  • 00:16:07.423 --> 00:16:09.158
  • About, that in my father's house are many mansions, and things

  • Living creatures. and he had never read the bible back when
  • 00:20:06.762 --> 00:20:08.163
  • Never read the bible back when that happened, and he didn't
  • 00:20:08.230 --> 00:20:09.698
  • That happened, and he didn't know that there was one that had
  • 00:20:09.765 --> 00:20:11.166
  • Know that there was one that had the face of an eagle and another
  • 00:20:11.233 --> 00:20:12.801
  • The face of an eagle and another of a calf. and i turned over to
  • 00:20:12.868 --> 00:20:15.170
  • Of a calf. and i turned over to the book of revelation, chapter
  • 00:20:15.237 --> 00:20:16.471
  • The book of revelation, chapter 4, and showed him, joe, this
  • 00:20:16.538 --> 00:20:17.806
  • 4, and showed him, joe, this was... the... these were the
  • 00:20:17.873 --> 00:20:18.940
  • Was... the... these were the angels around the throne. he'd
  • 00:20:19.007 --> 00:20:20.876
  • Angels around the throne. he'd never read that. i was
  • 00:20:20.942 --> 00:20:22.678
  • Never read that. i was reminding. i reminded him of
  • 00:20:22.744 --> 00:20:24.146
  • Reminding. i reminded him of times that we had a mighty wind
  • 00:20:24.212 --> 00:20:26.014
  • Times that we had a mighty wind come through, and i mean, made
  • 00:20:26.081 --> 00:20:27.649
  • Come through, and i mean, made the curtains stand out straight
  • 00:20:27.716 --> 00:20:29.751
  • The curtains stand out straight like this, and yet a candle
  • 00:20:29.818 --> 00:20:31.119
  • Like this, and yet a candle never even flickered. we heard
  • 00:20:31.186 --> 00:20:33.221
  • Never even flickered. we heard the sound of a rushing mighty
  • 00:20:33.288 --> 00:20:34.623
  • The sound of a rushing mighty wind. we saw miracle after
  • 00:20:34.690 --> 00:20:36.658
  • Wind. we saw miracle after miracle, and i was just going
  • 00:20:36.725 --> 00:20:38.060
  • Miracle, and i was just going back and reminding him of all of
  • 00:20:38.126 --> 00:20:40.429
  • Back and reminding him of all of these things. and after a day or
  • 00:20:40.495 --> 00:20:42.464
  • These things. and after a day or two of me doing that, he just
  • 00:20:42.531 --> 00:20:44.566
  • Two of me doing that, he just literally yelled at me one time
  • 00:20:44.633 --> 00:20:45.967
  • Literally yelled at me one time and he said, stop! and i said,
  • 00:20:46.034 --> 00:20:48.637
  • And he said, stop! and i said, what's the matter? he says, i
  • 00:20:48.704 --> 00:20:50.339
  • What's the matter? he says, i don't remember any of that. he
  • 00:20:50.405 --> 00:20:52.941
  • Don't remember any of that. he got caught up into heaven. he
  • 00:20:53.008 --> 00:20:54.876
  • Got caught up into heaven. he didn't even remember it. and let
  • 00:20:54.943 --> 00:20:57.412
  • Didn't even remember it. and let me just suggest to you that
  • 00:20:57.479 --> 00:20:58.747
  • Me just suggest to you that that's one reason that he
  • 00:20:58.814 --> 00:21:01.049
  • That's one reason that he entered into some sin and got in
  • 00:21:01.116 --> 00:21:03.618
  • Entered into some sin and got in trouble, is because he wasn't
  • 00:21:03.685 --> 00:21:05.721
  • Trouble, is because he wasn't thankful, he wasn't remembering,
  • 00:21:05.787 --> 00:21:08.657
  • Thankful, he wasn't remembering, he wasn't glorifying and placing
  • 00:21:08.724 --> 00:21:10.959
  • He wasn't glorifying and placing value on those miraculous
  • 00:21:11.026 --> 00:21:12.694
  • Value on those miraculous encounters that he had with the
  • 00:21:12.761 --> 00:21:13.929
  • Encounters that he had with the lord. i valued them more than he
  • 00:21:13.995 --> 00:21:16.064
  • Lord. i valued them more than he did. i remembered his stories
  • 00:21:16.131 --> 00:21:18.500
  • Did. i remembered his stories more than he remembered them.
  • 00:21:18.567 --> 00:21:19.968
  • But see, this is something that
  • 00:21:21.870 --> 00:21:22.971
  • But see, this is something that i do. i just constantly am
  • 00:21:23.038 --> 00:21:25.807
  • I do. i just constantly am reminding myself. i don't know
  • 00:21:25.874 --> 00:21:27.509
  • Reminding myself. i don't know that there's a day that goes by.
  • 00:21:27.576 --> 00:21:29.077
  • That there's a day that goes by. there might be some day, but
