00:00:00.810 --> 00:00:03.300
This program is made
possible by the giving

00:00:03.300 --> 00:00:06.210
of the God called partners
of Renner Ministries.
3
00:00:07.290 --> 00:00:08.430
Hello friend.
4
00:00:08.430 --> 00:00:10.440
My name is Denise Renner
5
00:00:10.440 --> 00:00:13.140
and I wanna thank you
for being with me today.
6
00:00:13.140 --> 00:00:15.510
I have been waiting for you
7
00:00:15.510 --> 00:00:19.050
because I'm so excited
about what I'm talking
8
00:00:19.050 --> 00:00:20.580
to you about today.
9
00:00:20.580 --> 00:00:25.230
And that is that overcoming giant power,
10
00:00:25.230 --> 00:00:29.130
overcoming power on the inside of you
11
00:00:29.130 --> 00:00:31.920
to bring down any giant.
12
00:00:32.790 --> 00:00:36.570
The Bible says we've
overcome in this world
13
00:00:36.570 --> 00:00:38.580
by our faith.
14
00:00:38.580 --> 00:00:43.080
So I'm talking to you about that faith that overcomes giants
15
00:00:43.080 --> 00:00:46.140
that lives right on the inside of you.
16
00:00:46.140 --> 00:00:47.880
Isn't that encouraging?
17
00:00:47.880 --> 00:00:52.620
And I wanna offer to you my 5-part video series
18
00:00:52.620 --> 00:00:54.930
and it's called Giant -
19
00:00:54.930 --> 00:00:58.350
It's time for you to come down.
20
00:00:58.350 --> 00:01:00.840
And then the subtitle is,
21
00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:04.230
Overcoming Faith is Yours.
22
00:01:04.230 --> 00:01:05.700
Oh, I want you to have this.
23
00:01:05.700 --> 00:01:08.190
I believe it's gonna
be encouraging to you.
24
00:01:08.190 --> 00:01:09.990
Maybe you know somebody
25
00:01:09.990 --> 00:01:11.880
and maybe they're not
gonna read something,
26
00:01:11.880 --> 00:01:13.710
but they'll watch something.
27
00:01:14.970 --> 00:01:17.910
They need to be encouraged in their faith.
28
00:01:17.910 --> 00:01:21.210
They need to be courage
who they are in Jesus.
29
00:01:21.210 --> 00:01:24.390
This might be just the
thing that encourages them.
30
00:01:24.390 --> 00:01:26.760
Or we'll have a study guide
31
00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:31.320
and it can also get this
teaching in you deeper on the
32
00:01:31.320 --> 00:01:32.400
inside of you.
33
00:01:33.270 --> 00:01:36.870
Well, if you need prayer, please let us know how we can pray
34
00:01:36.870 --> 00:01:38.910
for you because we're there
35
00:01:38.910 --> 00:01:42.390
to pray just for you.
36
00:01:42.390 --> 00:01:45.990
And I can tell you that miracles happen through people,
37
00:01:45.990 --> 00:01:48.420
those people calling in for prayer.
38
00:01:50.280 --> 00:01:52.560
You can write, you can call,
39
00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:54.690
but we're there waiting for you.
40
00:01:54.690 --> 00:01:58.020
And if God's doing something
special in your life
41
00:01:58.020 --> 00:02:00.570
through these programs, please let us know
42
00:02:00.570 --> 00:02:03.810
because you need to tell your testimony
43
00:02:03.810 --> 00:02:06.840
and it encourages us.
44
00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:10.590
So I want you to stay with me
'cause I'm coming right back.
45
00:02:10.590 --> 00:02:14.490
And we are going to talk
about the overcoming
46
00:02:15.660 --> 00:02:19.560
faith empowered presence of God
47
00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:23.460
to overcome a giant on the inside of you.
48
00:02:24.450 --> 00:02:28.380
It's time for big miracles
and changes in your life.
49
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:30.570
Join Denise Renner
50
00:02:30.570 --> 00:02:34.170
and dive into the study of God's
word, which has great power
51
00:02:34.170 --> 00:02:37.290
to strengthen faith, inspire, change,
52
00:02:37.290 --> 00:02:39.300
heal physically and spiritually.
53
00:02:39.300 --> 00:02:42.270
And most importantly help
you learn about the power
54
00:02:42.270 --> 00:02:43.980
of Christ Jesus living in you.
55
00:02:45.060 --> 00:02:47.100
It's time with Denise Renner.
56
00:02:49.920 --> 00:02:53.820
Friend, I'm so excited
to talk to you today about
57
00:02:53.820 --> 00:02:57.990
that giant overcoming faith
that you have on the inside.
58
00:02:57.990 --> 00:02:59.560
But today we're gonna talk about
59
00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:02.380
that faith expressing itself
60
00:03:02.380 --> 00:03:04.660
through compassion.
61
00:03:05.500 --> 00:03:08.920
And we're starting in Mark 5,
62
00:03:08.920 --> 00:03:12.850
and Jesus has come victoriously
63
00:03:12.850 --> 00:03:16.360
through a life threatening storm.
64
00:03:16.360 --> 00:03:20.350
Of course it was for the
disciples, Jesus was asleep
65
00:03:20.350 --> 00:03:24.700
and he rebuked the storm and the waves
66
00:03:24.700 --> 00:03:26.530
and the waves stopped
67
00:03:26.530 --> 00:03:30.610
and Jesus came to the other
side, which is exactly
68
00:03:30.610 --> 00:03:33.580
what he said he was going to do.
69
00:03:33.580 --> 00:03:38.050
And in Mark 5:2, it says
70
00:03:38.050 --> 00:03:40.720
That when he came out of the boat,
71
00:03:40.720 --> 00:03:45.720
immediately there met him
out of the tombs, a man
72
00:03:45.730 --> 00:03:50.650
with an unclean spirit
who had been dwelling
73
00:03:50.650 --> 00:03:52.240
among the tombs
74
00:03:52.240 --> 00:03:57.160
and no one could bind
him, not even with chains
75
00:03:57.160 --> 00:04:02.080
because he had often been
bound with shackles and chains
76
00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:06.670
and the chains had been
pulled apart by him.
77
00:04:06.670 --> 00:04:10.180
And the shackles broken in pieces.
78
00:04:11.020 --> 00:04:14.890
Neither could anyone tame him.
79
00:04:14.890 --> 00:04:18.700
Can you even imagine? Verse 5:
80
00:04:18.700 --> 00:04:21.160
And always night
81
00:04:21.160 --> 00:04:24.430
and day he was in the mountains
82
00:04:24.430 --> 00:04:27.520
and in the tombs crying out
83
00:04:27.520 --> 00:04:31.210
and cutting himself with stones.
84
00:04:31.210 --> 00:04:35.200
Many, many years ago, Rick
and I, we lived in America
85
00:04:35.200 --> 00:04:37.930
and we were ministering
in this church and,
86
00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:41.140
and this man came to the church
87
00:04:41.140 --> 00:04:43.210
and actually he was demon possessed.
88
00:04:43.210 --> 00:04:47.050
But Rick went to his shop
89
00:04:47.050 --> 00:04:51.160
to get his hair cut there
'cause he was a barber.
90
00:04:51.160 --> 00:04:56.160
And when Rick came up to the
shop to get his hair cut,
91
00:04:56.560 --> 00:05:00.550
the man was in there and
he was just screaming.
92
00:05:00.550 --> 00:05:01.930
He was just screaming.
93
00:05:03.010 --> 00:05:04.540
And the enemy,
94
00:05:04.540 --> 00:05:08.950
the devil tormenting this poor man.
95
00:05:08.950 --> 00:05:12.010
And that's what's happening to this man.
96
00:05:12.010 --> 00:05:15.370
If you could just even imagine the torment
97
00:05:15.370 --> 00:05:17.500
that this man was living in night
98
00:05:17.500 --> 00:05:22.090
and day, screaming, cutting himself,
99
00:05:22.090 --> 00:05:25.360
can you imagine cutting yourself,
100
00:05:26.290 --> 00:05:30.970
putting pain on yourself, breaking chains off of yourself?
101
00:05:30.970 --> 00:05:35.170
I mean, how much was this man
bleeding from his own body
102
00:05:35.170 --> 00:05:38.530
because of the torment and
the torture that he was in?
103
00:05:40.210 --> 00:05:44.140
It just sounds like a
really rough place to go
104
00:05:44.140 --> 00:05:46.570
and a very unfriendly,
105
00:05:46.570 --> 00:05:50.050
an uncomfortable place to minister.
106
00:05:50.050 --> 00:05:54.850
And most of us are not seeking
that kind of person out.
107
00:05:54.850 --> 00:05:56.560
But
108
00:05:56.560 --> 00:06:00.890
and we would find ourself probably instead of drawing near
109
00:06:00.890 --> 00:06:04.550
to that person, trying to stay
as far away from that kind
110
00:06:04.550 --> 00:06:06.710
of person as we could.
111
00:06:06.710 --> 00:06:08.660
But not Jesus.
112
00:06:08.660 --> 00:06:12.200
This was the very reason that
he went to the other side.
113
00:06:13.910 --> 00:06:16.880
I don't know a lot of Christians
114
00:06:16.880 --> 00:06:21.350
who are on purpose seeking people
115
00:06:21.350 --> 00:06:24.800
who are controlled by a devil
116
00:06:24.800 --> 00:06:28.010
or wrapped up in darkness
to minister to them.
117
00:06:29.030 --> 00:06:32.570
But as we are growing in our faith
118
00:06:32.570 --> 00:06:36.050
and in the love of God and moving more
119
00:06:36.050 --> 00:06:39.020
and more in compassion, more
120
00:06:39.020 --> 00:06:43.880
and more people are going
out of their comfort zones
121
00:06:43.880 --> 00:06:48.020
and going to those who are
tormented by such darkness
122
00:06:48.020 --> 00:06:50.480
and such demonic oppression.
123
00:06:51.710 --> 00:06:56.510
To go into this kind of
atmosphere takes compassion
124
00:06:58.610 --> 00:07:02.600
past yourself, past your fears,
125
00:07:02.600 --> 00:07:05.540
past your uncomfortableness.
126
00:07:05.540 --> 00:07:09.830
And I just wanna mention about
our son Philip right here
127
00:07:09.830 --> 00:07:14.450
because he told me: our son now is
128
00:07:14.450 --> 00:07:17.660
going into places in the United States
129
00:07:19.340 --> 00:07:21.920
that are very dark, very dark.
130
00:07:21.920 --> 00:07:23.720
Most people will not go there.
131
00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:28.040
He goes to homosexual parades, he goes
132
00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:31.940
to places where people
are shooting up with drugs
133
00:07:31.940 --> 00:07:35.330
and they're just no hope for them.
134
00:07:35.330 --> 00:07:38.720
He goes to people who
are worshiping the dead.
135
00:07:38.720 --> 00:07:43.520
I mean he just goes into the
most dark, dark, dark places.
136
00:07:43.520 --> 00:07:45.440
And I was talking to him
137
00:07:45.440 --> 00:07:48.950
and I said, I said Philip, I said,
138
00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:51.530
do you just get
139
00:07:51.530 --> 00:07:56.150
so excited every morning when
you get up to go out there
140
00:07:56.150 --> 00:07:57.710
and minister?
141
00:07:57.710 --> 00:08:02.150
And he said, mom, to tell
you the honest truth,
142
00:08:03.050 --> 00:08:07.130
I have to make myself to go into
143
00:08:07.130 --> 00:08:08.270
that place.
144
00:08:09.320 --> 00:08:11.600
I know I'm called there
145
00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:15.050
and I know, I know I have what they need,
146
00:08:15.050 --> 00:08:17.810
but I have to make a decision.
147
00:08:19.580 --> 00:08:24.230
Well, at another place where
he went to, it was so dark
148
00:08:24.230 --> 00:08:28.670
and he didn't want to go
in there and he was outside
149
00:08:28.670 --> 00:08:31.850
and all of the sudden the presence
150
00:08:31.850 --> 00:08:36.500
of God came on him and he started weeping
151
00:08:37.430 --> 00:08:39.800
and he started sobbing.
152
00:08:39.800 --> 00:08:43.370
And the presence of God overcame my son.
153
00:08:43.370 --> 00:08:46.160
And he said, mom, I was
154
00:08:47.150 --> 00:08:50.450
so filled with compassion,
155
00:08:50.450 --> 00:08:55.050
not a human compassion, a compassion
156
00:08:55.050 --> 00:08:59.790
that goes in and does something to deliver someone: not
157
00:08:59.790 --> 00:09:01.830
to feel sorry for someone,
158
00:09:01.830 --> 00:09:05.640
but you actually bring what they need.
159
00:09:05.640 --> 00:09:09.900
And he said that compassion drove me
160
00:09:09.900 --> 00:09:12.060
to go minister to those people.
161
00:09:14.760 --> 00:09:18.540
Friend, I'm telling you that
compassion is so powerful
162
00:09:18.540 --> 00:09:21.630
and look what, look what Jesus did.
163
00:09:21.630 --> 00:09:26.340
So in that compassion, he came to that man
164
00:09:26.340 --> 00:09:28.710
that was so demon possessed
165
00:09:29.580 --> 00:09:33.990
and he got that man delivered.
166
00:09:35.160 --> 00:09:39.300
One person, Jesus came for one person.
167
00:09:42.450 --> 00:09:46.440
Through the decades, people have
168
00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:49.020
have forgotten their own lives, the value
169
00:09:49.020 --> 00:09:50.820
of their own lives.
170
00:09:50.820 --> 00:09:53.580
And they've laid down
their lives for others.
171
00:09:54.420 --> 00:09:59.100
And but what happened was that
compassion of God came out
172
00:09:59.100 --> 00:10:02.670
of them, out of the faith
that was inside of them
173
00:10:02.670 --> 00:10:06.960
and it brought exactly the
message those people needed.
174
00:10:07.890 --> 00:10:12.210
I'm thinking of the man who
translated the Bible, Tyndale,
175
00:10:13.170 --> 00:10:17.520
and I've been to Oxford where
he was burned at the stake.
176
00:10:17.520 --> 00:10:19.290
He was persecuted
177
00:10:19.290 --> 00:10:23.580
because he translated the Bible out
178
00:10:23.580 --> 00:10:25.830
of compassion.
179
00:10:25.830 --> 00:10:29.880
Aren't you thankful for
his compassion and faith?
180
00:10:29.880 --> 00:10:33.030
It brought him to a place that he even had
181
00:10:33.030 --> 00:10:34.380
to lay down his life
182
00:10:34.380 --> 00:10:37.950
but we have the translation of the Bible.
183
00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:44.460
This compassion will move past fear,
184
00:10:44.460 --> 00:10:49.350
inconvenience, hardship, suffering,
185
00:10:49.350 --> 00:10:53.430
and even the loss of your own life,
186
00:10:53.430 --> 00:10:58.110
but it will bring forth the power of God.
187
00:11:00.510 --> 00:11:04.320
So in verse 6, when Jesus saw,
188
00:11:04.320 --> 00:11:07.890
when this man saw Jesus from afar, he ran
189
00:11:07.890 --> 00:11:11.670
and he worshiped him and he
cried out with a loud voice
190
00:11:11.670 --> 00:11:15.660
and he said, what to do with you Jesus son
191
00:11:15.660 --> 00:11:18.030
of the most high God.
192
00:11:18.030 --> 00:11:19.950
Now I am going to point this out
193
00:11:19.950 --> 00:11:24.270
because I wanna show you how much power
194
00:11:24.270 --> 00:11:26.430
Jesus has over the devil
195
00:11:26.430 --> 00:11:29.700
and how much power's been
stripped from the devil.
196
00:11:29.700 --> 00:11:33.420
Listen to this; What to do
197
00:11:33.420 --> 00:11:36.300
with you Jesus, son of the most high God.
198
00:11:36.300 --> 00:11:38.190
This is his devil speaking.
199
00:11:38.190 --> 00:11:42.810
I implore you, I beg you by God
200
00:11:42.810 --> 00:11:45.120
that you do not torment me.
201
00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:48.360
The devil is begging Jesus.
202
00:11:48.360 --> 00:11:50.910
See by this verse about the devil
203
00:11:50.910 --> 00:11:55.030
and this man, he's begging Jesus.
204
00:11:55.030 --> 00:11:57.880
The devil is begging Jesus.
205
00:11:57.880 --> 00:12:01.810
The devil also recognizes
that Jesus is the son
206
00:12:01.810 --> 00:12:03.640
of the most high God.
207
00:12:03.640 --> 00:12:08.020
The devil remembers when Jesus kicked
208
00:12:08.020 --> 00:12:10.030
Lucifer out of heaven.
209
00:12:11.020 --> 00:12:15.400
Jesus said in Luke 10:17,
210
00:12:15.400 --> 00:12:19.840
When the seventy returned with joy saying, Lord,
211
00:12:19.840 --> 00:12:24.220
even the demons are subject to your name.
212
00:12:24.220 --> 00:12:26.470
And Jesus said,
213
00:12:26.470 --> 00:12:31.365
I saw Satan fall like lightning from
214
00:12:31.365 --> 00:12:35.140
heaven; and this devil
215
00:12:36.400 --> 00:12:41.200
that was tormenting this man is screaming out
216
00:12:41.200 --> 00:12:44.590
that Jesus is the most high God
217
00:12:45.610 --> 00:12:47.710
and that he would not torment him.
218
00:12:48.940 --> 00:12:53.080
He remembered the authority of his voice
219
00:12:53.080 --> 00:12:57.220
and the power to kick him right out of heaven.
220
00:12:57.220 --> 00:12:59.080
And he fell outta heaven
221
00:12:59.080 --> 00:13:01.540
so fast was like
222
00:13:01.540 --> 00:13:05.410
lightning just like that.
223
00:13:05.410 --> 00:13:08.950
There goes the devil right out of heaven.
224
00:13:08.950 --> 00:13:12.940
This devil is in terror of Jesus.
225
00:13:12.940 --> 00:13:16.120
Verse 8: When he said to him, come out
226
00:13:16.120 --> 00:13:19.450
of the man you unclean
spirit, then ask him,
227
00:13:19.450 --> 00:13:20.980
what is your name?
228
00:13:20.980 --> 00:13:25.210
Say, my name is Legion. We are many. Verse 10:
229
00:13:27.250 --> 00:13:31.090
And again, he begged him earnestly
230
00:13:31.090 --> 00:13:34.030
that he would not send
him out of the country.
231
00:13:35.560 --> 00:13:40.360
Verse 7: Now the large herd of swine were feeding
232
00:13:40.360 --> 00:13:42.640
there near the mountains.
233
00:13:42.640 --> 00:13:47.440
So all the demons begged him saying,
234
00:13:47.440 --> 00:13:48.850
send us to the swine
235
00:13:48.850 --> 00:13:52.000
that we may enter them. At once,
236
00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:54.340
Jesus gave them permission.
237
00:13:54.340 --> 00:13:58.660
Then the unclean spirit went
out and entered the swine.
238
00:13:58.660 --> 00:14:00.310
There were about 2000
239
00:14:00.310 --> 00:14:05.200
and the herd ran violently
down the steep place into the
240
00:14:05.200 --> 00:14:07.540
sea and drowned in the sea.
241
00:14:07.540 --> 00:14:12.190
And the demon possessed
man was gloriously freed.
242
00:14:14.440 --> 00:14:16.390
Jesus did that for one person:
243
00:14:17.620 --> 00:14:22.620
compassion, faith, overcoming the devil.
244
00:14:22.930 --> 00:14:25.510
When Jesus stepped in
that place of compassion
245
00:14:25.510 --> 00:14:30.010
and faith, the devil trembled
friend, I'm telling you,
246
00:14:30.010 --> 00:14:33.010
when you step into that
out of your faith, into
247
00:14:33.010 --> 00:14:36.250
that compassion, the devil trembles
248
00:14:36.250 --> 00:14:38.440
because he's knows he's defeated.
249
00:14:39.880 --> 00:14:42.010
Now go with me to another account
250
00:14:42.010 --> 00:14:47.010
of Jesus delivering a person,
not because of their faith,
251
00:14:47.080 --> 00:14:51.020
but because of his faith,
because of his compassion,
252
00:14:51.020 --> 00:14:54.260
because of his compassionate faith.
253
00:14:55.190 --> 00:14:59.330
It's Luke 13 and it says in verse 10.
254
00:14:59.330 --> 00:15:02.870
Now he was teaching in one of
the synagogues on the Sabbath.
255
00:15:02.870 --> 00:15:07.730
And behold there was a woman
who had a spirit of infirmity
256
00:15:09.380 --> 00:15:12.560
for 18 years -
257
00:15:12.560 --> 00:15:17.560
18 years. Can you even imagine 18 years?
258
00:15:18.170 --> 00:15:20.510
And was bent over
259
00:15:20.510 --> 00:15:23.990
and in no way could raise herself up.
260
00:15:25.250 --> 00:15:29.330
Not not two years, not five years,
261
00:15:30.740 --> 00:15:33.170
not 10 years, 18
262
00:15:35.090 --> 00:15:38.300
years - tormented.
263
00:15:42.020 --> 00:15:46.280
But he saw her, he called
264
00:15:46.280 --> 00:15:48.170
to her, to him.
265
00:15:48.170 --> 00:15:52.760
And he said to her woman, you are loose
266
00:15:52.760 --> 00:15:53.900
of that infirmity.
267
00:15:55.400 --> 00:15:58.370
And he laid his hands on her
268
00:15:58.370 --> 00:16:02.930
and immediately she was made straight and glorified
269
00:16:02.930 --> 00:16:06.470
God. I'm talking to you about the heart of Jesus.
270
00:16:06.470 --> 00:16:09.590
It was not the woman's faith
that delivered her from
271
00:16:09.590 --> 00:16:10.970
that infirmity.
272
00:16:10.970 --> 00:16:15.020
It was Jesus' faith
moving through compassion.
273
00:16:15.920 --> 00:16:18.020
And I wanna give you another example
274
00:16:18.020 --> 00:16:22.130
and it's in Luke 7 and it says,
275
00:16:22.130 --> 00:16:23.990
and when - verse 12:
276
00:16:23.990 --> 00:16:28.850
and and when he came near the gate of the city, behold
277
00:16:30.920 --> 00:16:33.410
a dead man was being carried out,
278
00:16:33.410 --> 00:16:38.240
the only son of his mother, and she was a widow
279
00:16:38.240 --> 00:16:41.510
and a large crowd from
the city was with her.
280
00:16:41.510 --> 00:16:45.080
Verse 13: when the Lord saw her,
281
00:16:45.080 --> 00:16:46.940
he had compassion on her
282
00:16:46.940 --> 00:16:50.660
and said to her, do not weep.
283
00:16:51.770 --> 00:16:54.950
Then he came and he
touched the open coffin.
284
00:16:54.950 --> 00:16:57.650
And those who carried him stood still.
285
00:16:57.650 --> 00:17:02.270
And he said, young man, I say to you
286
00:17:02.270 --> 00:17:04.880
a rise: and verse 15:
287
00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:08.390
So he that was dead set up
288
00:17:08.390 --> 00:17:11.330
and began to speak.
289
00:17:11.330 --> 00:17:15.530
And Jesus, he presented him to his mother.
290
00:17:16.520 --> 00:17:20.990
I love this account and I
love to look at this account
291
00:17:20.990 --> 00:17:22.820
because of the heart of Jesus.
292
00:17:23.750 --> 00:17:25.580
It was a normal day.
293
00:17:25.580 --> 00:17:28.250
Jesus was coming near the gate of the city
294
00:17:28.250 --> 00:17:33.140
and there was a funeral; that would not be unusual.
295
00:17:33.140 --> 00:17:37.430
But what is unusual is
that somehow Jesus knew
296
00:17:37.430 --> 00:17:39.050
that this dead man
297
00:17:39.050 --> 00:17:42.200
who was being carried out was
the only son of his mother
298
00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:43.610
and she was a widow.
299
00:17:44.480 --> 00:17:46.670
You might say,
300
00:17:46.670 --> 00:17:51.210
So this kind of thing
happens all the time,
301
00:17:51.210 --> 00:17:55.470
but friend, it's the interruption
302
00:17:55.470 --> 00:17:59.340
of compassion fueled by faith
303
00:17:59.340 --> 00:18:04.020
that makes the ordinary extraordinary.
304
00:18:05.670 --> 00:18:08.100
Though it was a normal day
305
00:18:08.100 --> 00:18:10.080
and a normal funeral,
306
00:18:10.080 --> 00:18:14.400
there was a large crowd there
from the city who was there
307
00:18:14.400 --> 00:18:18.210
to have pity and who cared
about this woman and her son.
308
00:18:18.210 --> 00:18:22.620
But it wasn't pity that interrupted the funeral,
309
00:18:22.620 --> 00:18:25.200
it was compassionate faith.
310
00:18:26.160 --> 00:18:31.140
Verse 13 says, when the Lord saw her,
311
00:18:31.140 --> 00:18:32.310
it doesn't say -
312
00:18:32.310 --> 00:18:34.740
and when the Lord saw the casket,
313
00:18:34.740 --> 00:18:37.650
when the Lord saw the crowd, no,
314
00:18:37.650 --> 00:18:40.800
it says when the Lord saw her,
315
00:18:41.760 --> 00:18:43.560
he had compassion
316
00:18:43.560 --> 00:18:47.220
and he immediately says the answer
317
00:18:47.220 --> 00:18:50.040
that she could not even have imagined.
318
00:18:50.040 --> 00:18:53.580
He said, do not weep.
319
00:18:53.580 --> 00:18:56.490
And then Jesus does the unthinkable.
320
00:18:56.490 --> 00:19:01.050
He stops the funeral and
he talks to the dead man
321
00:19:01.050 --> 00:19:06.030
and he says to the young
man, I say to you, arise.
322
00:19:07.140 --> 00:19:11.400
It was not the faith of the
widow woman who lost her,
323
00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:14.640
only son that raised
her son from the dead.
324
00:19:14.640 --> 00:19:16.260
It was faith
325
00:19:16.260 --> 00:19:18.690
and compassion moving together
326
00:19:18.690 --> 00:19:21.090
to completely change the situation.
327
00:19:22.050 --> 00:19:25.200
It was Jesus moved by
328
00:19:25.200 --> 00:19:29.040
that compassion infused with faith
329
00:19:29.040 --> 00:19:33.000
because that is the very presence of the one who's on the
330
00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:35.370
inside of you right now.
331
00:19:35.370 --> 00:19:39.570
You have the compassionate one on the inside of you.
332
00:19:40.560 --> 00:19:44.010
You have him living on the inside of you.
333
00:19:44.010 --> 00:19:48.330
So why do we not see more of
believers stopping funerals,
334
00:19:48.330 --> 00:19:51.660
raising the dead or walking
in a mall or a grocery store
335
00:19:51.660 --> 00:19:53.100
and touching the crippled?
336
00:19:54.060 --> 00:19:57.210
Maybe you're saying to
yourself, but I'm not Jesus.
337
00:19:57.210 --> 00:20:02.100
That's true. But he
lives in you. Your body.
338
00:20:02.100 --> 00:20:05.460
Your very body is the temple
339
00:20:05.460 --> 00:20:08.370
of the Holy Spirit. Friend,
340
00:20:08.370 --> 00:20:10.470
it's our time to shine
341
00:20:10.470 --> 00:20:13.200
and let this lost world see
342
00:20:13.200 --> 00:20:16.200
that Jesus lives in us
343
00:20:16.200 --> 00:20:19.380
and that he is alive today.
344
00:20:19.380 --> 00:20:23.130
It's not a fairy tale that
he is a miracle worker.
345
00:20:24.090 --> 00:20:27.660
He is a healing Jesus and he -
346
00:20:27.660 --> 00:20:29.490
and he hasn't changed.
347
00:20:29.490 --> 00:20:31.890
He's the same healing Jesus
348
00:20:33.120 --> 00:20:35.640
that he was 2000 years ago.
349
00:20:35.640 --> 00:20:40.640
The Bible says he's the same
yesterday, today and forever.
350
00:20:41.220 --> 00:20:44.040
That power, that healing power,
351
00:20:44.040 --> 00:20:48.700
that compassionate power is
resident on the inside of you.
352
00:20:51.070 --> 00:20:55.270
The faith that Jesus gave you
to be born with lives on the
353
00:20:55.270 --> 00:20:59.230
inside of you and that
Holy Spirit who directs us
354
00:20:59.230 --> 00:21:03.850
and who directed Jesus
lives on the inside of you.
355
00:21:04.960 --> 00:21:06.610
Friend, what am I saying to you?
356
00:21:07.510 --> 00:21:12.400
It is time for us to embrace the faith
357
00:21:12.400 --> 00:21:16.090
that God put in us when we got born again.
358
00:21:17.560 --> 00:21:19.660
Recognize the compassion
359
00:21:19.660 --> 00:21:23.500
of Jesus that's on the inside of us
360
00:21:25.000 --> 00:21:27.310
and speak out
361
00:21:27.310 --> 00:21:30.430
and lay our hands on the sick
362
00:21:30.430 --> 00:21:35.430
and let people see in this world
363
00:21:35.740 --> 00:21:38.710
that Jesus is alive.
364
00:21:39.850 --> 00:21:44.830
But today the real Jesus
and he lives in you.
365
00:21:46.210 --> 00:21:51.010
Oh friend, the Holy Spirit lives in you.
366
00:21:51.010 --> 00:21:53.590
Not just so that we can just have peace
367
00:21:53.590 --> 00:21:56.800
and have all our needs met.
368
00:21:56.800 --> 00:22:01.030
Know he lives in us so
that we can give out
369
00:22:01.030 --> 00:22:03.610
of our very self to others.
370
00:22:04.750 --> 00:22:08.920
The message, the gospel, the power of God,
371
00:22:08.920 --> 00:22:13.690
the presence of God that
they long to be touched with.
372
00:22:15.160 --> 00:22:17.950
Aren't you thankful
somebody reached out to you?
373
00:22:19.420 --> 00:22:21.730
Well, I want you to stay with me
374
00:22:21.730 --> 00:22:25.270
'cause I'm gonna be right back
and I wanna pray with you.
375
00:22:25.270 --> 00:22:29.290
But I want us to recognize that power
376
00:22:29.290 --> 00:22:32.440
that lives on the inside of us
377
00:22:32.440 --> 00:22:36.970
and that we can pull down giants with
378
00:22:36.970 --> 00:22:41.970
that faith, that that's
that's infused with compassion
379
00:22:42.280 --> 00:22:44.470
that lives on the inside of you.
380
00:22:45.580 --> 00:22:48.640
When David faced Goliath,
he didn't allow the doubts
381
00:22:48.640 --> 00:22:50.170
or negative opinions of others
382
00:22:50.170 --> 00:22:52.210
to keep him from claiming the victory.
383
00:22:52.210 --> 00:22:54.760
Likewise, when Jesus faced the storm,
384
00:22:54.760 --> 00:22:57.430
he didn't allow the
wind to intimidate him.
385
00:22:57.430 --> 00:23:00.460
And his faith produced great
peace to calm the waves.
386
00:23:00.460 --> 00:23:03.310
The moment you were born
again, that same unwavering,
387
00:23:03.310 --> 00:23:06.070
giant killing faith was deposited in you.
388
00:23:06.070 --> 00:23:08.800
It's time to release the
giant slayer within him
389
00:23:08.800 --> 00:23:11.680
to overcome the roadblocks
that stand in your way.

432
00:25:17.540 --> 00:25:22.520
Father, right now, in the
name of Jesus with my friend,
433
00:25:22.520 --> 00:25:26.780
we on purpose recognize the
434
00:25:26.780 --> 00:25:28.160
presence
435
00:25:28.160 --> 00:25:32.210
and the power of the Holy Spirit on the
436
00:25:32.210 --> 00:25:33.710
inside of us.
437
00:25:34.550 --> 00:25:38.570
And Lord, because of your
presence on the inside,
438
00:25:38.570 --> 00:25:41.600
we are giant killers
439
00:25:41.600 --> 00:25:46.400
and we can be moved by the
faith that's on the inside
440
00:25:46.400 --> 00:25:51.400
of us and give that compassion to others.
441
00:25:51.950 --> 00:25:55.400
Oh Lord, I just thank you
for your presence right now.
442
00:25:55.400 --> 00:25:59.600
I thank you for everybody
watching and praying with me.
443
00:26:00.590 --> 00:26:04.460
In Jesus' name, amen.

447
00:26:13.100 --> 00:26:17.000
and I want you to join
me on the next program
448
00:26:17.000 --> 00:26:21.440

being a giant killer again,

I'll see you on the next program.
451
00:26:26.360 --> 00:26:29.540
If you've never received
Jesus as your Savior
452
00:26:29.540 --> 00:26:34.540
and Lord, now is the time for
you to experience a new life
453
00:26:34.670 --> 00:26:36.920
Jesus has to give you.
454
00:26:36.920 --> 00:26:41.270
Pray this prayer with me right now; Lord,
455
00:26:41.270 --> 00:26:45.930
I repent of my sin and
receive you as my Savior
456
00:26:45.930 --> 00:26:49.230
and Lord. Wash away my sin
457
00:26:49.230 --> 00:26:51.900
and make me completely new.
458
00:26:51.900 --> 00:26:54.210
I thank you that my sin is removed
459
00:26:54.210 --> 00:26:59.210
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.
460
00:26:59.310 --> 00:27:04.310
I faithfully promise that
I will serve you as my Lord
461
00:27:04.350 --> 00:27:06.960
for the rest of my life.
462
00:27:06.960 --> 00:27:07.960
Amen.
463
00:27:11.130 --> 00:27:13.920

prayer of salvation with us,
464
00:27:13.920 --> 00:27:15.870

We would love to connect with you.
467
00:27:34.050 --> 00:27:36.000
Perhaps I have to do another test.
468
00:27:37.140 --> 00:27:39.870
The only thing to do is to wait.
469
00:27:42.960 --> 00:27:46.860
I wish things have gone another way. I wanna be healthy.
470
00:27:49.770 --> 00:27:53.130
If there is no one to
support you, don't give up.
471
00:27:53.130 --> 00:27:56.280
Just contact us, choosing
your available way.
472
00:27:56.280 --> 00:27:58.020

to give you prayer support.
474
00:28:08.040 --> 00:28:10.980
If two of you shall agree on
earth as touching anything
475
00:28:10.980 --> 00:28:15.150
that they shall ask, it shall
be done for them of my Father,
476
00:28:15.150 --> 00:28:15.990
which is in Heaven.
