The high priest in the old testament

In the old testament would wear those same stones
00:04:17.593 --> 00:04:19.996

00:05:45.014 --> 00:05:47.049
Purpose for which you have been saved,
00:05:47.116 --> 00:05:47.984
Have been saved, now that you are saved,
00:05:48.050 --> 00:05:49.252
Now that you are saved, that in whatever you
00:05:49.318 --> 00:05:50.753
That in whatever you do in life you give
00:05:50.820 --> 00:05:52.288
Do in life you give praise, and glory,
00:05:52.355 --> 00:05:54.290
Praise, and glory, and honor to god,
00:05:54.357 --> 00:05:56.058
And honor to god, you replace lucifer
00:05:56.125 --> 00:05:57.794
You replace lucifer with your praise.
00:05:57.860 --> 00:05:59.095
With your praise. you don't take the glory,
00:05:59.162 --> 00:06:00.463
You don't take the glory, you don't keep it inside
00:06:00.530 --> 00:06:02.131
You don't keep it inside to yourself, but you give
00:06:02.198 --> 00:06:03.900
To yourself, but you give god the glory, and you
00:06:03.966 --> 00:06:05.768
God the glory, and you give god the praise.”
00:06:05.835 --> 00:06:07.503
There's something
00:06:08.671 --> 00:06:09.472
There's something powerful, lucifer,
00:06:09.539 --> 00:06:10.840
Powerful, lucifer, he was heaven's
00:06:10.907 --> 00:06:12.074
He was heaven's choir director,
00:06:12.141 --> 00:06:13.142
Choir director, he was the worship
00:06:13.209 --> 00:06:14.143
He was the worship leader in heaven, he --
00:06:14.210 --> 00:06:16.946
Leader in heaven, he -- until iniquity was found
00:06:17.013 --> 00:06:18.714
Until iniquity was found in him and he was dismissed,
00:06:18.781 --> 00:06:21.818
In him and he was dismissed, and he was demoted,
00:06:21.884 --> 00:06:24.587
And he was demoted, and he was distanced
00:06:24.654 --> 00:06:27.023
And he was distanced from the throne of god.
00:06:27.089 --> 00:06:30.359
From the throne of god. and you and i sinned,
00:06:30.426 --> 00:06:34.530
And you and i sinned, and jesus, god put on
00:06:34.597 --> 00:06:36.833
And jesus, god put on skin and came down,
00:06:36.899 --> 00:06:38.334
Skin and came down, and bled and died,
00:06:38.401 --> 00:06:39.602
And bled and died, and carried a rugged cross
00:06:39.669 --> 00:06:43.005
And carried a rugged cross to pave a way for us
00:06:43.072 --> 00:06:44.974
To pave a way for us to some back to him.
00:06:45.041 --> 00:06:46.275
To some back to him. but when lucifer sinned,
00:06:46.342 --> 00:06:48.911
But when lucifer sinned, god said, “you are banned
00:06:48.978 --> 00:06:51.747
God said, “you are banned from the throne room,
00:06:51.814 --> 00:06:53.649
From the throne room, i will never allow you back.
00:06:53.716 --> 00:06:55.885
I will never allow you back. there is no way back.”
00:06:55.952 --> 00:06:57.920
There is no way back.” why?
00:06:57.987 --> 00:06:58.654
Why? what did he do
00:06:58.721 --> 00:07:00.056
What did he do that was so horrible?
00:07:00.122 --> 00:07:02.358
That was so horrible? did he murder
00:07:02.425 --> 00:07:03.359
Did he murder masses of people?
00:07:03.426 --> 00:07:07.497
Masses of people? no, his sin was pride,
00:07:07.563 --> 00:07:11.367
No, his sin was pride, self-exaltation
00:07:11.434 --> 00:07:12.735
Self-exaltation and rebellion,
00:07:12.802 --> 00:07:13.636
And rebellion, that's the inwards sin.
00:07:13.703 --> 00:07:14.904
That's the inwards sin. but notice this,
00:07:14.971 --> 00:07:15.571
But notice this, the outward manifestation
00:07:15.638 --> 00:07:17.707
The outward manifestation of inward pride
00:07:17.773 --> 00:07:18.875
Of inward pride and self-exaltation was
00:07:18.941 --> 00:07:20.943
And self-exaltation was the refusal to worship.
00:07:21.010 --> 00:07:24.814
The refusal to worship. see, worship is not
00:07:24.881 --> 00:07:25.748
See, worship is not this out here that
00:07:25.815 --> 00:07:26.949
This out here that you do on the outside,
00:07:27.016 --> 00:07:28.251
You do on the outside, worship is what's
00:07:28.317 --> 00:07:29.252
Worship is what's on the inside.
00:07:29.318 --> 00:07:31.120
On the inside. if you don't have
00:07:31.187 --> 00:07:32.054
If you don't have any worship,
00:07:32.121 --> 00:07:35.725
Any worship, do you have anything
00:07:35.791 --> 00:07:37.226
Do you have anything on the inside?
00:07:37.293 --> 00:07:38.094
On the inside? the more you have
00:07:38.160 --> 00:07:39.328
The more you have going on on the inside,
00:07:39.395 --> 00:07:41.330
Going on on the inside, the more your outside wants
00:07:41.397 --> 00:07:43.599
The more your outside wants to express what you feel.
00:07:43.666 --> 00:07:48.170
To express what you feel. what i want you to see
00:07:48.237 --> 00:07:49.005
What i want you to see is this, when lucifer
00:07:49.071 --> 00:07:51.007
Is this, when lucifer was cast out of heaven,
00:07:51.073 --> 00:07:52.308
Was cast out of heaven, 1/3 of the angels
00:07:52.375 --> 00:07:53.576
1/3 of the angels went with him,
00:07:53.643 --> 00:07:54.277
Went with him, they're now demonic powers.
00:07:54.343 --> 00:07:56.913
They're now demonic powers. but some of them,
00:07:56.979 --> 00:07:57.947
But some of them, the bible said, were cast
00:07:58.014 --> 00:07:59.549
The bible said, were cast into a compartment of hell.
00:07:59.615 --> 00:08:01.150
Into a compartment of hell. and this is all
00:08:01.217 --> 00:08:01.918
And this is all in the book of jude,
00:08:01.984 --> 00:08:03.519
In the book of jude, three things happened --
00:08:03.586 --> 00:08:06.222
Three things happened -- by example of what
00:08:06.289 --> 00:08:07.256
By example of what happened to the angels
00:08:07.323 --> 00:08:08.224
Happened to the angels that were cast out,
00:08:08.291 --> 00:08:09.292
That were cast out, three things happened
00:08:09.358 --> 00:08:10.593
Three things happened to people who
00:08:10.660 --> 00:08:11.294
To people who refused to worship.
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:13.029
Refused to worship. number one, the bible said,
00:08:13.095 --> 00:08:14.697
Number one, the bible said, "they were cast down,"
00:08:14.764 --> 00:08:16.399
"they were cast down," in the book of jude.
00:08:16.465 --> 00:08:17.800
In the book of jude. “they were cast down,
00:08:17.867 --> 00:08:19.502
“they were cast down, they kept not
00:08:19.569 --> 00:08:20.269
They kept not their first estate,
00:08:20.336 --> 00:08:21.137
Their first estate, that of worship,
00:08:21.203 --> 00:08:22.572
That of worship, but they cast them
00:08:22.638 --> 00:08:24.874
But they cast them down into hell.
00:08:24.941 --> 00:08:27.810
Down into hell. they were cast out.
00:08:27.877 --> 00:08:29.145
They were cast out. when people don't worship,
00:08:29.211 --> 00:08:31.814
When people don't worship, they get down,
00:08:31.881 --> 00:08:34.016
They get down, they get cast down,
00:08:34.083 --> 00:08:36.586
They get cast down, they get down.
00:08:36.652 --> 00:08:38.754
They get down. if you're in a valley,
00:08:38.821 --> 00:08:40.990
If you're in a valley, you have to learn
00:08:41.057 --> 00:08:42.491
You have to learn to praise your way
00:08:42.558 --> 00:08:43.326
To praise your way out of that valley.
00:08:43.392 --> 00:08:45.428
Out of that valley. you don't have to
00:08:45.494 --> 00:08:46.262
You don't have to live down, you don't
00:08:46.329 --> 00:08:47.797
Live down, you don't have to live depressed.
00:08:47.863 --> 00:08:50.600
Have to live depressed. i got things that if
00:08:50.666 --> 00:08:51.334
I got things that if i think on those things,
00:08:51.400 --> 00:08:52.568
I think on those things, they'll --
00:08:52.635 --> 00:08:53.336
They'll -- they'll depress me.
00:08:53.402 --> 00:08:54.904
They'll depress me. if i let my mind just think
00:08:54.971 --> 00:08:56.639
If i let my mind just think about it all the time --
00:08:56.706 --> 00:08:57.673
About it all the time -- i can have the greatest
00:08:57.740 --> 00:08:59.041
I can have the greatest victories going on
00:08:59.108 --> 00:09:00.009
Victories going on all around me and satan
00:09:00.076 --> 00:09:01.644
All around me and satan will whisper to me,
00:09:01.711 --> 00:09:02.612
Will whisper to me, “but that should
00:09:02.678 --> 00:09:03.546
“but that should steal your joy,
00:09:03.613 --> 00:09:04.680
Steal your joy, but that should
00:09:04.747 --> 00:09:05.481
But that should make you sad,
00:09:05.548 --> 00:09:06.482
Make you sad, but that should make
00:09:06.549 --> 00:09:07.383
But that should make your heart heavy,
00:09:07.450 --> 00:09:08.484
Your heart heavy, but that should
00:09:08.551 --> 00:09:09.418
But that should worry you silly.”
00:09:09.485 --> 00:09:11.787
Worry you silly.” and i've learned that if
00:09:11.854 --> 00:09:14.824
And i've learned that if the enemy is trying
00:09:14.890 --> 00:09:15.524
The enemy is trying to put me down,
00:09:15.591 --> 00:09:16.525
To put me down, all i gotta do is
00:09:16.592 --> 00:09:17.627
All i gotta do is open my mouth and say,
00:09:17.693 --> 00:09:19.562
Open my mouth and say, “i'll praise the lord
00:09:19.629 --> 00:09:20.763
“i'll praise the lord at all times,
00:09:20.830 --> 00:09:21.664
At all times, his praise will
00:09:21.731 --> 00:09:23.132
His praise will continually be
00:09:23.199 --> 00:09:24.166
Continually be in my mouth.”
00:09:24.233 --> 00:09:25.067
In my mouth.” and you can't stay
00:09:25.134 --> 00:09:26.168
And you can't stay down if you'll keep
00:09:26.235 --> 00:09:27.269
Down if you'll keep praising the lord.
00:09:27.336 --> 00:09:29.572
Praising the lord. the second thing that
00:09:29.639 --> 00:09:31.374
The second thing that happens to people who
00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:32.808
Happens to people who refuse to worship
00:09:32.875 --> 00:09:35.378
Refuse to worship is they get down.
00:09:35.444 --> 00:09:35.978
Is they get down. the second thing it said,
00:09:36.045 --> 00:09:37.246
The second thing it said, the bible said,
00:09:37.313 --> 00:09:37.980
The bible said, “and they were
00:09:38.047 --> 00:09:38.614
“and they were bound with chains.”
00:09:38.681 --> 00:09:40.983
Bound with chains.” you get down,
00:09:41.050 --> 00:09:42.752
You get down, and the next part
00:09:42.818 --> 00:09:43.686
And the next part of that verse said,
00:09:43.753 --> 00:09:44.387
Of that verse said, “and they were
00:09:44.453 --> 00:09:45.054
“and they were bound with chains.”
00:09:45.121 --> 00:09:46.889
Bound with chains.” and then you get bound.
00:09:46.956 --> 00:09:48.057
And then you get bound. you get down, and then
00:09:48.124 --> 00:09:50.526
You get down, and then usually people who don't
00:09:50.593 --> 00:09:51.894
Usually people who don't praise the lord
00:09:51.961 --> 00:09:52.928
Praise the lord and worship much,
00:09:52.995 --> 00:09:54.830
And worship much, they end up getting bound.
00:09:54.897 --> 00:09:56.866
They end up getting bound. because what happens is
00:09:56.932 --> 00:09:57.867
Because what happens is they get down, and when
00:09:57.933 --> 00:09:59.568
They get down, and when they get down,
00:09:59.635 --> 00:10:00.336
They get down, because everybody goes
00:10:00.403 --> 00:10:01.504
Because everybody goes through seasons of attack,
00:10:01.570 --> 00:10:03.406
Through seasons of attack, and if you don't learn
00:10:03.472 --> 00:10:04.106
And if you don't learn how to praise the lord,
00:10:04.173 --> 00:10:04.974
How to praise the lord, you get down and then
00:10:05.041 --> 00:10:06.242
You get down and then when you get down,
00:10:06.308 --> 00:10:07.109
When you get down, you start going back
00:10:07.176 --> 00:10:07.910
You start going back to the old things that
00:10:07.977 --> 00:10:08.978
To the old things that god set you free from
00:10:09.045 --> 00:10:10.980
God set you free from and you end up bound.
00:10:11.047 --> 00:10:13.449
And you end up bound. the bible said,
00:10:13.516 --> 00:10:13.983
The bible said, “it's like a dog going
00:10:14.050 --> 00:10:14.784
“it's like a dog going back to its vomit.”
00:10:14.850 --> 00:10:16.385
Back to its vomit.” the bible said,
00:10:16.452 --> 00:10:16.919
The bible said, “when an unclean spirit
00:10:16.986 --> 00:10:17.953
“when an unclean spirit is cast out of a man,
00:10:18.020 --> 00:10:19.789
Is cast out of a man, he's left clean and swept.
00:10:19.855 --> 00:10:22.324
He's left clean and swept. and if he's left empty,
00:10:22.391 --> 00:10:24.226
And if he's left empty, and he doesn't get filled up,
00:10:24.293 --> 00:10:26.328
And he doesn't get filled up, that demon comes back
00:10:26.395 --> 00:10:27.463
That demon comes back with seven more demons,
00:10:27.530 --> 00:10:30.199
With seven more demons, and the state of that man
00:10:30.266 --> 00:10:31.567
And the state of that man is worse than the beginning.”
00:10:31.634 --> 00:10:35.471
Is worse than the beginning.” you have to stay
00:10:35.538 --> 00:10:36.038
You have to stay full of jesus.
00:10:36.105 --> 00:10:38.441
Full of jesus. you have to stay full
00:10:38.507 --> 00:10:39.308
You have to stay full of the holy spirit.
00:10:39.375 --> 00:10:42.078
Of the holy spirit. you have to stay full
00:10:42.144 --> 00:10:43.345
You have to stay full of worship because
00:10:43.412 --> 00:10:44.513
Of worship because that's the key.
00:10:44.580 --> 00:10:46.449
That's the key. so, he got down,
00:10:46.515 --> 00:10:49.285
So, he got down, they were cast down,
00:10:49.351 --> 00:10:51.487
They were cast down, bound with -- just bound,
00:10:51.554 --> 00:10:54.924
Bound with -- just bound, you just bound,
00:10:54.990 --> 00:10:55.558
You just bound, now you're picking up stuff
00:10:55.624 --> 00:10:58.060
Now you're picking up stuff that god set you free from.
00:10:58.127 --> 00:11:02.264
That god set you free from. and then, the last thing
00:11:02.331 --> 00:11:03.466
And then, the last thing is so important,
00:11:03.532 --> 00:11:05.868
Is so important, and here it is.
00:11:05.935 --> 00:11:08.404
And here it is. you see, if you don't
00:11:08.471 --> 00:11:10.072
You see, if you don't worship -- the story
00:11:10.139 --> 00:11:11.107
Worship -- the story teaches us in jude,
00:11:11.173 --> 00:11:13.409

00:11:13.476 --> 00:11:16.612
Satan and lucifer's story is if you don't worship --
00:11:16.679 --> 00:11:19.115
Is if you don't worship -- because lucifer refused
00:11:19.181 --> 00:11:20.382
Because lucifer refused to worship and said,
00:11:20.449 --> 00:11:21.417
To worship and said, “i'm not going to praise god
00:11:21.484 --> 00:11:23.419
“i'm not going to praise god and worship god anymore.”
00:11:23.486 --> 00:11:26.388
And worship god anymore.” one out of three
00:11:26.455 --> 00:11:27.723
One out of three angels joined him.

Angels joined him. if you don't worship,
00:11:33.062 --> 00:11:33.863
If you don't worship, you encourage somebody else
00:11:33.929 --> 00:11:36.098
You encourage somebody else to not worship and it
00:11:36.165 --> 00:11:40.402

Teensicles is because we've got so many popsicles.
00:11:50.146 --> 00:11:54.350

00:12:05.227 --> 00:12:06.262

00:12:16.272 --> 00:12:17.306
“i'm not ashamed to praise the one who was
00:12:17.373 --> 00:12:18.174
Praise the one who was stretched out in agony
00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:22.745
Stretched out in agony on a cross for me.”
00:12:22.812 --> 00:12:26.348
On a cross for me.” and the lesson of lucifer
00:12:26.415 --> 00:12:29.351
And the lesson of lucifer is not only did he fall

>> on october 7,
00:24:48.423 --> 00:24:49.257
Israel was attacked by
00:24:49.357 --> 00:24:50.191
The dark forces of hamas.
00:24:50.292 --> 00:24:52.060
It was the worst massacre
00:24:52.160 --> 00:24:53.161
The jewish people experienced
00:24:53.261 --> 00:24:54.663
Since the holocaust.
00:24:54.763 --> 00:24:56.665
The eshkol region
00:24:56.765 --> 00:24:57.732
In southern israel
00:24:57.832 --> 00:24:58.733
Was attacked directly.
00:24:58.833 --> 00:25:00.435
Women faced
00:25:00.535 --> 00:25:01.136
Unspeakable atrocities.
00:25:01.236 --> 00:25:03.338
Infants were assassinated.
00:25:03.438 --> 00:25:05.273
Numerous families
00:25:05.373 --> 00:25:06.207
Were burnt alive,
00:25:06.308 --> 00:25:07.642
And both mothers
00:25:07.742 --> 00:25:08.410
And their babies
00:25:08.510 --> 00:25:09.177
And holocaust survivors
00:25:09.277 --> 00:25:10.579
Were abducted to

The hamas tunnels in gaza.
00:25:11.580 --> 00:25:13.582
And now we stand
00:25:13.682 --> 00:25:14.683
At a pivotal moment,
00:25:14.783 --> 00:25:16.151
Poised to provide a lifeline
00:25:16.251 --> 00:25:17.752
For the people of eshkol,
00:25:17.852 --> 00:25:19.321
Who continue to be attacked
