00:00:00.810 --> 00:00:03.300
This program is made
possible by the giving
2
00:00:03.300 --> 00:00:06.210
of the God called partners
of Renner Ministries.
3
00:00:07.290 --> 00:00:09.960
Hello, friend. My name is Denise Renner
4
00:00:09.960 --> 00:00:13.110
and I wanna welcome you to my program.
5
00:00:13.110 --> 00:00:17.760
Oh, we've been having a time
talking about being free from
6
00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:22.650
worry, and today I call this lesson Worry-
7
00:00:22.650 --> 00:00:27.270
Goodbye!. That's so powerful to even think of
8
00:00:27.270 --> 00:00:31.680
that, that you and I could be free from worry.
9
00:00:31.680 --> 00:00:34.200
The world is consumed with worry.
10
00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:37.770
The world makes money off of worry. The world,
11
00:00:37.770 --> 00:00:42.770
they promote worry and fear and complaining and scandals,
12
00:00:42.990 --> 00:00:46.620
but Jesus didn't call us to live like that.
13
00:00:46.620 --> 00:00:49.980
He paid the price for us to have complete
14
00:00:49.980 --> 00:00:54.930
and total peace - conquering in our spirit
15
00:00:54.930 --> 00:00:58.470
and conquering in our
mind and in our body.
16
00:00:58.470 --> 00:01:02.340
Now, that is great news!
17
00:01:02.340 --> 00:01:07.110
and I wanna offer you my 5-part video series
18
00:01:07.110 --> 00:01:11.070
because this could really help somebody.
19
00:01:11.070 --> 00:01:15.570
Maybe you know somebody and
they're consumed with worry.
20
00:01:15.570 --> 00:01:19.590
This could be the thing that
really just helps 'em a lot
21
00:01:19.590 --> 00:01:21.840
and gets 'em over that hump.
22
00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:25.860
And how about a Companion Study Guide,
23
00:01:25.860 --> 00:01:28.620
and you can get deeper
inside of the word of God
24
00:01:28.620 --> 00:01:30.150
and study it yourself
25
00:01:30.150 --> 00:01:33.930
and decide - No, I am not gonna be one
26
00:01:33.930 --> 00:01:35.280
that's conquered by worry.
27
00:01:35.280 --> 00:01:37.830
I'm gonna be one that's
conquered by peace.
28
00:01:37.830 --> 00:01:40.830
And also, I wanna offer you my book.
29
00:01:40.830 --> 00:01:42.480
Jesus Is Your Healer,
30
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:45.780
and the subtitle is The Power
31
00:01:45.780 --> 00:01:50.670
of His sacrifice, both to Save and to Heal.
32
00:01:52.590 --> 00:01:56.940
And I just wanna proclaim to
you boldly that every drop
33
00:01:56.940 --> 00:02:00.430
of blood that came off of Jesus on that
34
00:02:00.430 --> 00:02:03.900
horrible crucifixion and in Gethsemane,
35
00:02:03.900 --> 00:02:08.640
and every drop was your
salvation, your deliverance,
36
00:02:10.380 --> 00:02:11.940
deliverance from hell,
37
00:02:13.050 --> 00:02:17.310
but in every drop was also
38
00:02:17.310 --> 00:02:18.390
your healing.
39
00:02:20.190 --> 00:02:22.200
Oh, it's so magnificent.
40
00:02:22.200 --> 00:02:24.900
I talk to you so much
about it in this book,
41
00:02:24.900 --> 00:02:26.820
and I want you to have it.
42
00:02:26.820 --> 00:02:29.400
I believe that it's gonna help you.
43
00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:32.100
Well, I want you to stay with me
44
00:02:32.100 --> 00:02:34.110
because I'm gonna be right back
45
00:02:34.110 --> 00:02:36.000
and we are gonna talk about
46
00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:39.390
how we have authority over worry,
47
00:02:39.390 --> 00:02:42.660
and we can say, Worry-Goodbye!.
48
00:02:44.790 --> 00:02:48.720
It's time for big miracles
and changes in your life.
49
00:02:49.650 --> 00:02:50.940
Join Denise Renner
50
00:02:50.940 --> 00:02:54.540
and dive into the study of God's word which has great power
51
00:02:54.540 --> 00:02:58.590
to strengthen faith, inspire change, heal physically
52
00:02:58.590 --> 00:03:01.150
and spiritually, and most importantly,
53
00:03:01.150 --> 00:03:02.620
help you learn about the power
54
00:03:02.620 --> 00:03:04.300
of Christ Jesus living in you.
55
00:03:05.440 --> 00:03:07.510
It's time with Denise Renner.
56
00:03:09.670 --> 00:03:12.340
Maybe you're saying to yourself right now -
57
00:03:12.340 --> 00:03:17.290
How in the world can I be free from worry? Denise,
58
00:03:17.290 --> 00:03:19.810
be realistic.
59
00:03:19.810 --> 00:03:23.440
Well, there are worries
and there are stress
60
00:03:23.440 --> 00:03:27.400
and there's anxiety, and
it all comes to all of us.
61
00:03:27.400 --> 00:03:29.980
It all knocks on all of our doors.
62
00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:33.880
But it matters if we open the door
63
00:03:34.720 --> 00:03:37.630
or if we say - No, you're not coming in.
64
00:03:38.500 --> 00:03:40.780
And I've said this to
you before, dear friend,
65
00:03:40.780 --> 00:03:44.410
but the the honest truth is
66
00:03:44.410 --> 00:03:48.760
that Jesus paid that amazing price
67
00:03:48.760 --> 00:03:51.040
to bring peace to our heart
68
00:03:51.040 --> 00:03:55.750
and for the fruits of the spirit to be on the inside of us
69
00:03:55.750 --> 00:03:58.780
and one of them is peace.
70
00:03:58.780 --> 00:04:03.310
And for us to experience his
peace, even in the hardest
71
00:04:03.310 --> 00:04:07.540
of times, he paid that price.
72
00:04:07.540 --> 00:04:12.460
And so we can experience peace no matter
73
00:04:12.460 --> 00:04:16.210
what is going on around us.
74
00:04:18.190 --> 00:04:21.820
Now, I want you to go with me to Philippians 4:
75
00:04:22.870 --> 00:04:24.160
6.
76
00:04:26.380 --> 00:04:29.020
And it says - Be anxious -
77
00:04:29.020 --> 00:04:32.950
be anxious for nothing,
but in everything by prayer
78
00:04:32.950 --> 00:04:35.800
and supplication with thanksgiving,
79
00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:39.670
let your requests be made known unto God.
80
00:04:39.670 --> 00:04:44.650
Okay, well just that first phrase, be anxious
81
00:04:44.650 --> 00:04:46.570
for nothing,
82
00:04:46.570 --> 00:04:48.040
well, in the Greek,
83
00:04:48.040 --> 00:04:51.970
that word, nothing, is a tiny little word in the Greek
84
00:04:51.970 --> 00:04:54.820
language, and it's the word te.
85
00:04:54.820 --> 00:04:58.607
And that means to the minuteness
86
00:04:58.607 --> 00:05:01.390
of detail, the smallest
87
00:05:01.390 --> 00:05:05.890
of detail: from the biggest care, worry
88
00:05:05.890 --> 00:05:10.720
problem to the smallest, we're to be anxious
89
00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:13.000
for nothing.
90
00:05:14.320 --> 00:05:17.200
Oh, friend, that is amazing.
91
00:05:17.200 --> 00:05:18.580
And then when you think
92
00:05:18.580 --> 00:05:22.750
that the apostle Paul is writing this in the most horrible
93
00:05:22.750 --> 00:05:26.890
prison at that time, historians say
94
00:05:26.890 --> 00:05:31.570
that he was standing in sewage
and death was all around him.
95
00:05:31.570 --> 00:05:34.420
And I can't even imagine the stench.
96
00:05:34.420 --> 00:05:37.570
I cannot even imagine the stench.
97
00:05:37.570 --> 00:05:41.140
What about rats crawling on that sewage?
98
00:05:42.325 --> 00:05:44.230
We, we just, we just don't know.
99
00:05:45.790 --> 00:05:50.560
And he writes, be anxious
100
00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:51.880
for nothing.
101
00:05:53.080 --> 00:05:54.280
What an example.
102
00:05:55.630 --> 00:05:57.980
You know, if the Apostle
Paul can write that
103
00:05:57.980 --> 00:06:01.370
with such conviction by the Holy Spirit,
104
00:06:01.370 --> 00:06:04.970
we have these writings through him,
105
00:06:04.970 --> 00:06:07.820
then God is talking out to us.
106
00:06:07.820 --> 00:06:12.560
He's reaching out right
now through his word
107
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:14.480
and saying to you
108
00:06:14.480 --> 00:06:19.480
and saying to me, my
precious, my precious,
109
00:06:19.640 --> 00:06:21.680
precious child,
110
00:06:23.030 --> 00:06:25.100
don't be anxious for anything.
111
00:06:27.140 --> 00:06:29.270
That is his truth to us.
112
00:06:29.270 --> 00:06:32.690
And he says, don't be
anxious for anything,
113
00:06:32.690 --> 00:06:37.580
but in everything by
prayer and supplication.
114
00:06:39.080 --> 00:06:42.440
And that means in everything
that you, if you're tempted
115
00:06:42.440 --> 00:06:45.440
to worry about it, then
you could pray about it.
116
00:06:45.440 --> 00:06:47.930
So whatever it is that
you're worried about,
117
00:06:47.930 --> 00:06:51.110
start praying about - start
talking to God about it.
118
00:06:51.110 --> 00:06:53.215
Start looking up scriptures about it.
119
00:06:53.215 --> 00:06:56.750
Start saying, God, your
word says about this.
120
00:06:56.750 --> 00:06:59.240
And then tell God.
121
00:06:59.240 --> 00:07:04.070
Supplication is where you
pour out your heart to God.
122
00:07:04.070 --> 00:07:08.570
You are telling him exactly what you want, exactly where you
123
00:07:08.570 --> 00:07:11.570
are, exactly what his word
says about the situation.
124
00:07:11.570 --> 00:07:15.050
And you say, God, I'm standing
with your word on this.
125
00:07:15.050 --> 00:07:17.930
This is a picture of supplication,
126
00:07:17.930 --> 00:07:22.820
but then it's followed with thanksgiving.
127
00:07:22.820 --> 00:07:24.440
Now that's very important.
128
00:07:24.440 --> 00:07:26.000
That's very important
129
00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:30.050
because as we're pouring out
our heart to God, we've got
130
00:07:30.050 --> 00:07:32.990
to continually be thankful for who he is,
131
00:07:34.190 --> 00:07:38.540
what he's done, what he's
doing in our life right now,
132
00:07:38.540 --> 00:07:42.350
what he's done in the past,
what he's blessed us with,
133
00:07:42.350 --> 00:07:45.470
what we are receiving that
others may not ha, ha,
134
00:07:45.470 --> 00:07:49.280
have the opportunity to receive, that we can see
135
00:07:49.280 --> 00:07:52.430
that we can talk, that we
can walk, that we have food,
136
00:07:52.430 --> 00:07:57.430
that we have a house - being
thankful is so powerful.
137
00:07:58.010 --> 00:07:59.900
And a lot of people when they pray
138
00:07:59.900 --> 00:08:03.350
and even Christians do this,
139
00:08:03.350 --> 00:08:06.290
is they pour out their
complaint to the Lord
140
00:08:06.290 --> 00:08:08.060
and then they stop right there.
141
00:08:08.060 --> 00:08:09.710
And they don't acknowledge
142
00:08:09.710 --> 00:08:12.920
that he's done anything
good in their life.
143
00:08:12.920 --> 00:08:15.050
It's so easy to do that.
144
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:18.350
But that's not what God wants us to do.
145
00:08:18.350 --> 00:08:20.715
And that's not where the power is.
146
00:08:20.715 --> 00:08:24.890
The power is being anxious, saying no,
147
00:08:24.890 --> 00:08:26.870
and then praying about it
148
00:08:26.870 --> 00:08:30.830
and then thanking God for his goodness:
149
00:08:30.830 --> 00:08:34.280
magnifying him for who he is.
150
00:08:34.280 --> 00:08:36.590
And then the verse follows,
151
00:08:36.590 --> 00:08:39.830
And let your request be made known to God.
152
00:08:39.830 --> 00:08:43.250
God wants to know what your request is in verse 7:
153
00:08:43.250 --> 00:08:47.600
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding,
154
00:08:47.600 --> 00:08:50.420
will guard your hearts
155
00:08:50.420 --> 00:08:53.660
and minds through Christ Jesus.
156
00:08:53.660 --> 00:08:58.440
Now, this responsibility of the peace
157
00:08:58.440 --> 00:09:01.410
of God in your heart is like an umpire.
158
00:09:01.410 --> 00:09:05.460
So something comes up against
your mind, against your heart,
159
00:09:05.460 --> 00:09:07.410
and it's not peaceful.
160
00:09:07.410 --> 00:09:12.300
It has fear in it, has worry
in it, has complaining in it,
161
00:09:12.300 --> 00:09:14.220
anxiety in it.
162
00:09:14.220 --> 00:09:17.910
And you're the peace of God in your heart,
163
00:09:17.910 --> 00:09:19.440
like an umpire,
164
00:09:19.440 --> 00:09:21.570
he stands up
165
00:09:21.570 --> 00:09:25.200
and he says - No, you're not coming in.
166
00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:27.330
Nope, you're not coming in.
167
00:09:27.330 --> 00:09:30.090
I don't know if you've
ever watched hockey.
168
00:09:30.090 --> 00:09:35.010
I watched just very, very little. But I watch those goalies.
169
00:09:35.010 --> 00:09:38.400
And I am telling you when that
170
00:09:38.400 --> 00:09:42.690
that puck comes towards
that goal, that that goal,
171
00:09:42.690 --> 00:09:47.010
that goalie like an umpire,
like a great umpire,
172
00:09:47.010 --> 00:09:49.230
he lunges out there
173
00:09:49.230 --> 00:09:53.130
and he, he's like, Nope,
you're not coming in.
174
00:09:55.020 --> 00:09:59.130
Well, the peace of God is greater than
175
00:09:59.130 --> 00:10:00.840
that goalie.
176
00:10:00.840 --> 00:10:05.840
And he stands up and says, no
fear, you're not coming in.
177
00:10:06.000 --> 00:10:09.270
No worry. You're not coming in here.
178
00:10:09.270 --> 00:10:12.330
That's how powerful the peace of God is
179
00:10:12.330 --> 00:10:14.250
that's on the inside of you.
180
00:10:15.210 --> 00:10:19.710
And so if we listen
181
00:10:19.710 --> 00:10:22.710
to that peace, to that umpire,
182
00:10:23.910 --> 00:10:28.140
and we agree and we say, no, I'm not,
183
00:10:28.140 --> 00:10:30.000
I'm not gonna take that.
184
00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:34.380
I'm gonna listen to the peace
of God that's on the inside
185
00:10:34.380 --> 00:10:38.820
of me. When we're doing
186
00:10:38.820 --> 00:10:40.740
that, friend,
187
00:10:40.740 --> 00:10:44.880
the Bible says in James 4:8,
188
00:10:44.880 --> 00:10:48.360
and it says - Draw near to God
189
00:10:48.360 --> 00:10:51.060
and he will draw near to you.
190
00:10:51.900 --> 00:10:54.420
Well, I'm gonna give myself as an example.
191
00:10:54.420 --> 00:10:57.090
This happened many, many, many years ago.
192
00:10:57.090 --> 00:11:00.360
But I was in great distress about something
193
00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:03.900
and I just wanted these situation to change.
194
00:11:03.900 --> 00:11:06.810
And the situation was not changing.
195
00:11:06.810 --> 00:11:11.040
And so I went to the Lord,
I went with my complaints
196
00:11:11.040 --> 00:11:13.050
and the Holy Spirit spoke to me
197
00:11:13.050 --> 00:11:17.400
and he said, he said - That person doesn't need to change.
198
00:11:17.400 --> 00:11:18.810
You need to change.
199
00:11:20.100 --> 00:11:23.640
I said, Okay, well Lord, how are we gonna do that?
200
00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:28.140
And the scripture says, draw near to me
201
00:11:28.140 --> 00:11:30.210
and I will draw near to you.
202
00:11:30.210 --> 00:11:35.210
So I said, Lord, okay,
I obviously do not know
203
00:11:35.220 --> 00:11:36.870
what to change.
204
00:11:36.870 --> 00:11:38.550
I don't know how to change.
205
00:11:38.550 --> 00:11:41.130
I don't even know how to
touch what it is that needs
206
00:11:41.130 --> 00:11:44.280
to be changed, but I have your word
207
00:11:44.280 --> 00:11:46.230
and it says to draw near to you,
208
00:11:46.230 --> 00:11:50.190
and then there's a promise that you're giving to me,
209
00:11:50.190 --> 00:11:52.680
then you'll draw near to me.
210
00:11:55.060 --> 00:11:57.730
So I made a decision.
211
00:11:57.730 --> 00:12:02.590
I decided that I was going to
get up one and a half hours
212
00:12:02.590 --> 00:12:03.880
before my family.
213
00:12:03.880 --> 00:12:06.430
The boys were small at that time.
214
00:12:06.430 --> 00:12:08.350
And so I got up
215
00:12:08.350 --> 00:12:11.440
and every morning I had my nose
216
00:12:11.440 --> 00:12:14.680
and my eyes in the word of God.
217
00:12:14.680 --> 00:12:17.050
And actually I just stayed in the Book of Proverbs
218
00:12:17.050 --> 00:12:19.300
and I just stayed there and I just stayed there,
219
00:12:19.300 --> 00:12:22.630
and I stayed there. Every morning every morning I was there.
220
00:12:23.470 --> 00:12:25.870
Well, I didn't see anything happening.
221
00:12:25.870 --> 00:12:27.340
I didn't see anything changing.
222
00:12:27.340 --> 00:12:29.590
I didn't see my attitude changing.
223
00:12:29.590 --> 00:12:31.630
I didn't see anything happening.
224
00:12:32.950 --> 00:12:35.950
But one day I had this thought
225
00:12:37.450 --> 00:12:41.830
and it was like the Holy
Spirit opened my eyes.
226
00:12:41.830 --> 00:12:44.140
And he said to me,
227
00:12:44.140 --> 00:12:46.450
I'm just gonna tell
you what he said to me.
228
00:12:46.450 --> 00:12:51.160
He said, you have competition in your heart
229
00:12:51.160 --> 00:12:52.630
against your husband.
230
00:12:54.370 --> 00:12:58.330
I said, I do? Okay?
231
00:12:58.330 --> 00:13:01.750
And so I even told my
husband, I said, Rick,
232
00:13:01.750 --> 00:13:02.950
the Holy Spirit spoke to me
233
00:13:02.950 --> 00:13:07.270
and he said, I have competition in my heart against you.
234
00:13:08.830 --> 00:13:11.950
Well, I didn't see anything change.
235
00:13:11.950 --> 00:13:14.410
I just heard the Holy Spirit speak.
236
00:13:15.820 --> 00:13:19.210
But I continued to seek him every morning.
237
00:13:21.130 --> 00:13:23.500
And one morning, just a few days
238
00:13:23.500 --> 00:13:26.920
after that, I was seeking the Lord.
239
00:13:26.920 --> 00:13:29.050
And what does the scripture say?
240
00:13:29.050 --> 00:13:31.810
It says, draw near to God
241
00:13:33.370 --> 00:13:35.800
and he will draw near to you.
242
00:13:37.480 --> 00:13:42.220
Well, what happened that
morning was God drew near
243
00:13:42.220 --> 00:13:47.220
to me and he revealed to me that
244
00:13:47.590 --> 00:13:52.210
that competition; he revealed to me what it looked like,
245
00:13:52.210 --> 00:13:56.590
the sin of it, what was wrong with it, the darkness of it,
246
00:13:56.590 --> 00:14:00.610
how it was stealing from me,
my relationship with him,
247
00:14:00.610 --> 00:14:02.770
my relationship with my husband.
248
00:14:03.880 --> 00:14:08.230
And I'm telling you, honestly,
he revealed so much to me.
249
00:14:08.230 --> 00:14:10.120
He delivered me in that moment.
250
00:14:11.110 --> 00:14:13.870
And I wept over that
251
00:14:14.800 --> 00:14:16.570
for a few days.
252
00:14:16.570 --> 00:14:18.130
And that's the truth.
253
00:14:18.130 --> 00:14:21.400
But do you know that I
was completely delivered?
254
00:14:21.400 --> 00:14:24.910
I was completely delivered. But why?
255
00:14:24.910 --> 00:14:29.050
Because I said, oh Lord, I need you to - Lord,
256
00:14:29.050 --> 00:14:30.220
please change my husband.
257
00:14:30.220 --> 00:14:33.100
Please change my husband.
Please change my husband.
258
00:14:33.100 --> 00:14:38.100
No, I did say that, but
got deeper than that.
259
00:14:38.410 --> 00:14:41.860
It came to God, I need your help here.
260
00:14:41.860 --> 00:14:45.790
And he said, he's not
your problem. You are.
261
00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:48.610
Well, I could have even resented that,
262
00:14:48.610 --> 00:14:51.590
but no, I was seeking him
263
00:14:51.590 --> 00:14:56.300
and I did what his word said,
which was draw near to him
264
00:14:56.300 --> 00:14:58.370
and he'll draw near to you.
265
00:14:58.370 --> 00:15:00.830
Well friend, when you draw near to him,
266
00:15:02.270 --> 00:15:05.480
he doesn't draw near to you empty handed.
267
00:15:05.480 --> 00:15:10.130
He draws near to you with answers
268
00:15:10.970 --> 00:15:12.830
and deliverance
269
00:15:12.830 --> 00:15:16.490
and power for your situation.
270
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:21.590
And that's exactly what
he did to me that day,
271
00:15:21.590 --> 00:15:26.390
is he drew near to me with power and with answers
272
00:15:26.390 --> 00:15:28.280
and with deliverance.
273
00:15:28.280 --> 00:15:30.590
And I've never been the same sense.
274
00:15:31.430 --> 00:15:35.720
Because if you want to get rid of
275
00:15:35.720 --> 00:15:40.190
that anxiety, of that fear, of
276
00:15:40.190 --> 00:15:43.250
that anxiousness, whatever form it is,
277
00:15:43.250 --> 00:15:47.570
worry, complaining, draw close
278
00:15:47.570 --> 00:15:51.470
to the one who's never anxious,
279
00:15:52.610 --> 00:15:55.430
the one who's never in fear, the one
280
00:15:55.430 --> 00:15:59.180
who is completely peaceful,
draw close to him.
281
00:16:00.110 --> 00:16:04.970
When you draw close to him, his presence,
282
00:16:05.990 --> 00:16:07.580
it's gonna affect you.
283
00:16:08.990 --> 00:16:11.690
And it surely affected me that day.
284
00:16:13.190 --> 00:16:18.190
So how can we do what the scripture says
285
00:16:18.230 --> 00:16:20.900
and keep drawing near the Lord
286
00:16:20.900 --> 00:16:22.910
and keep saying no to worry
287
00:16:22.910 --> 00:16:26.930
and keep having this peacefulness in our heart?
288
00:16:26.930 --> 00:16:30.260
Well, I wanna give you some
wonderful examples in the
289
00:16:30.260 --> 00:16:32.000
Old Testament.
290
00:16:32.000 --> 00:16:35.930
And the 1st example that I wanna give you
291
00:16:35.930 --> 00:16:37.880
is in 2 Chronicles.
292
00:16:38.750 --> 00:16:43.040
And these, the children of Israel,
293
00:16:43.040 --> 00:16:45.020
they're having a huge problem
294
00:16:45.020 --> 00:16:49.760
because they are against an enemy 3-times
295
00:16:49.760 --> 00:16:51.590
larger than themself.
296
00:16:51.590 --> 00:16:55.760
And it's three different
armies who have come together
297
00:16:55.760 --> 00:16:57.620
to come against them.
298
00:16:58.760 --> 00:17:03.230
It's for sure that they will be annihilated,
299
00:17:03.230 --> 00:17:06.470
and they will all be dead.
300
00:17:06.470 --> 00:17:10.850
So the King Jehosaphat, he proclaims a a fast.
301
00:17:10.850 --> 00:17:14.150
He seeks the Lord, the people are seeking the Lord.
302
00:17:14.150 --> 00:17:18.110
A prophet speaks and the prophet,
303
00:17:18.110 --> 00:17:22.550
and God says through the prophet in
304
00:17:23.630 --> 00:17:27.020
Chronicles 20:16,
305
00:17:27.020 --> 00:17:30.410
and it says, Tomorrow, go down against them.
306
00:17:30.410 --> 00:17:35.210 line:15%
They will surely come up by the Ascent of Ziz,
307
00:17:35.210 --> 00:17:38.540 line:15%
and you will find them at the end of the brook
308
00:17:38.540 --> 00:17:40.970
before the Wilderness of Jeruel.
309
00:17:42.320 --> 00:17:45.230
You will not need to fight in this battle,
310
00:17:45.230 --> 00:17:47.240
position yourself stand still
311
00:17:47.240 --> 00:17:52.230
and see the salvation of the Lord who is with you.
312
00:17:52.230 --> 00:17:54.600
Oh, Judah and Jerusalem do not be afraid
313
00:17:54.600 --> 00:17:58.140
or dismayed, tomorrow go out against them
314
00:17:58.140 --> 00:18:00.450
for the Lord is with you.
315
00:18:00.450 --> 00:18:05.450
And Jehosaphat bowed his head
with his face in the ground
316
00:18:05.700 --> 00:18:09.720
and all of Judah and the
inhabitants of Jerusalem bowed
317
00:18:09.720 --> 00:18:12.780
before the Lord and
they worshiped the Lord.
318
00:18:12.780 --> 00:18:15.600
Now they worshiped the Lord;
319
00:18:15.600 --> 00:18:18.420
that's drawing close to the Lord.
320
00:18:18.420 --> 00:18:20.760
And when they worshiped the Lord,
321
00:18:20.760 --> 00:18:24.480
their assignment was go down
to the enemy the next day.
322
00:18:24.480 --> 00:18:27.240
But the but the word of the
Lord said, you don't need
323
00:18:27.240 --> 00:18:28.920
to fight in this battle.
324
00:18:30.630 --> 00:18:35.160
Now, if they were all consumed with worry
325
00:18:35.160 --> 00:18:39.060
and distrust about what God said,
326
00:18:39.060 --> 00:18:43.320
they would have never been able to walk down
327
00:18:43.320 --> 00:18:47.070
to their enemy with only one weapon.
328
00:18:48.090 --> 00:18:51.150
It was the praise of God in their mouth.
329
00:18:52.260 --> 00:18:55.110
And they walked down to their enemy
330
00:18:55.110 --> 00:18:58.740
and they said, Praise the Lord, for he is good
331
00:18:58.740 --> 00:19:02.370
and his mercy endures for forever.
332
00:19:02.370 --> 00:19:05.040
Now, we don't know how
many times they said that,
333
00:19:05.940 --> 00:19:08.100
but friend, I'm telling you
334
00:19:08.100 --> 00:19:12.705
that they could not have
been consumed with worry
335
00:19:12.705 --> 00:19:16.805
and fear and walk down there in confidence
336
00:19:18.180 --> 00:19:22.260
and and say praises to God
337
00:19:22.260 --> 00:19:23.760
and carry no weapons.
338
00:19:25.590 --> 00:19:28.620
God's strategy was so powerful,
339
00:19:28.620 --> 00:19:30.690
they trusted in the Lord.
340
00:19:31.890 --> 00:19:36.120
They made a way for the Lord to do something; instead
341
00:19:36.120 --> 00:19:39.450
of worrying about it and holding it in their hands and
342
00:19:39.450 --> 00:19:41.340
and crying about it all night.
343
00:19:41.340 --> 00:19:42.780
No, they worship the Lord
344
00:19:42.780 --> 00:19:45.690
and they opened a place
for the supernatural.
345
00:19:46.890 --> 00:19:49.170
And the next day when they went down
346
00:19:49.170 --> 00:19:52.410
and they gave the praises to the Lord, the enemy,
347
00:19:52.410 --> 00:19:57.000
those 3 different armies, they all attacked each other.
348
00:19:57.990 --> 00:20:02.820
And the spoil was so great from those armies
349
00:20:02.820 --> 00:20:06.510
that the Israelites collected the spoil
350
00:20:06.510 --> 00:20:08.970
for 3-days.
351
00:20:10.620 --> 00:20:15.620
Now - how important is it
352
00:20:16.005 --> 00:20:20.580
for us to not worry. If we worry,
353
00:20:21.690 --> 00:20:26.250
we're closing our eyes to what God really wants to do?
354
00:20:28.230 --> 00:20:30.750
I said to you before we hold it in our hands
355
00:20:30.750 --> 00:20:33.510
and we don't give it into his hands.
356
00:20:34.530 --> 00:20:36.870
I said to you on another program
357
00:20:36.870 --> 00:20:40.830
that it's like being drunk
358
00:20:40.830 --> 00:20:43.830
with care and worry
359
00:20:45.060 --> 00:20:49.330
and that drunk people don't see
360
00:20:50.350 --> 00:20:54.610
or see things very clearly
361
00:20:54.610 --> 00:20:58.150
situations or act completely right
362
00:20:58.150 --> 00:21:00.310
because their vision
363
00:21:00.310 --> 00:21:05.170
and their personality is affected by the effects of alcohol.
364
00:21:07.030 --> 00:21:08.740
And that's how worry is.
365
00:21:09.790 --> 00:21:14.790
But when we say - No, Lord,
I am not gonna worry.
366
00:21:15.190 --> 00:21:18.280
I don't want my eyes blinded any more
367
00:21:18.280 --> 00:21:22.450
God. I wanna see you God
368
00:21:22.450 --> 00:21:26.500
do great and a mighty things.
369
00:21:26.500 --> 00:21:28.510
And friend, I'm telling you when it says
370
00:21:28.510 --> 00:21:31.030
to trust in the Lord with all your heart
371
00:21:31.030 --> 00:21:34.780
and lean not to your own understanding,
372
00:21:34.780 --> 00:21:37.030
but in all your ways, acknowledge him
373
00:21:37.030 --> 00:21:39.790
and he will direct your paths.
374
00:21:39.790 --> 00:21:41.530
Well, there's a great promise there
375
00:21:41.530 --> 00:21:43.960
because if we trust in the Lord,
376
00:21:43.960 --> 00:21:47.680
then we have an open door for him
377
00:21:47.680 --> 00:21:49.780
to direct our paths.
378
00:21:49.780 --> 00:21:53.200
The children of Israel, if
they would just have worried
379
00:21:53.200 --> 00:21:54.850
and not believed the prophets
380
00:21:54.850 --> 00:21:59.680
and not obeyed, they would
have been killed the next day.
381
00:22:00.580 --> 00:22:04.090
But because they trusted in God
382
00:22:04.090 --> 00:22:09.090
and they worshiped God, it opened the door
383
00:22:09.100 --> 00:22:13.390
for God to do supernatural
things for them.
384
00:22:16.030 --> 00:22:18.580
Friend, I'm gonna come right back
385
00:22:18.580 --> 00:22:20.020
and I'm gonna pray with you.
386
00:22:20.890 --> 00:22:24.400
But I want us to agree together that
387
00:22:24.400 --> 00:22:26.710
as we trust in the Lord,
388
00:22:27.730 --> 00:22:30.400
we are not just like being religious
389
00:22:30.400 --> 00:22:32.020
and saying, I trust in the Lord.
390
00:22:32.020 --> 00:22:35.650
No. We are opening the door
391
00:22:36.520 --> 00:22:40.510
for God to do something so
392
00:22:40.510 --> 00:22:43.060
to supernatural
393
00:22:43.060 --> 00:22:46.210
because we are in agreement with him
394
00:22:47.080 --> 00:22:50.710
and we open that door for God
395
00:22:50.710 --> 00:22:53.260
to do amazing things
396
00:22:53.260 --> 00:22:58.060
when we turn away from worry. Well stay
397
00:22:58.060 --> 00:22:59.890
with me and I'll be right back.
398
00:23:01.120 --> 00:23:03.220
Have you ever worried about something?
399
00:23:03.220 --> 00:23:05.200
Are you worried about it right now?
400
00:23:05.200 --> 00:23:07.810
Did you know you can fight
the temptation to give in
401
00:23:07.810 --> 00:23:09.580
to worry filled thoughts?
402
00:23:09.580 --> 00:23:11.620
Today's world thrives on worry
403
00:23:11.620 --> 00:23:14.860
and promotes fear,
complaining and scandals.
404
00:23:14.860 --> 00:23:17.320
But the good news is, Jesus hasn't called
405
00:23:17.320 --> 00:23:18.640
you to live that way.
406
00:23:18.640 --> 00:23:20.290
He tells you not to worry
407
00:23:20.290 --> 00:23:21.790
and Jesus never tells you
408
00:23:21.790 --> 00:23:24.700
to do something without
giving you the power to do it.
409
00:23:24.700 --> 00:23:28.990
In a new series, Worry-Goodbye!, Denise Renner explains -
410
00:23:28.990 --> 00:23:33.310
What is worry: What Jesus says about worry? What we can do
411
00:23:33.310 --> 00:23:35.350
to change our habits of worry?
412
00:23:35.350 --> 00:23:38.230
The danger of keeping even a little bit of worry.

Friend,
434
00:24:33.450 --> 00:24:34.283
is that not amazing
435
00:24:34.283 --> 00:24:38.420
the power that we have to say no to worry, no
436
00:24:38.420 --> 00:24:42.200
to anxiety, no to complaining,
437
00:24:42.200 --> 00:24:47.200
and what it opens the door
for, it opens the door
438
00:24:47.300 --> 00:24:52.010
for answers, it opens the door for power, it opens the door
439
00:24:52.010 --> 00:24:55.550
for the supernatural, just like we saw
440
00:24:55.550 --> 00:24:57.470
for the children of Israel.
441
00:24:58.400 --> 00:25:00.380
I wanna quote a verse to you,
442
00:25:00.380 --> 00:25:03.500
and it is Ephesians 3:20.
443
00:25:03.500 --> 00:25:08.360
And it says, Now to him who is able to do
444
00:25:08.360 --> 00:25:13.310
exceedingly, abundantly above all that we can ask
445
00:25:13.310 --> 00:25:17.210
or think according to the power of God
446
00:25:17.210 --> 00:25:18.980
that works in us.
447
00:25:20.480 --> 00:25:24.500
If we are worrying, we are not trusting
448
00:25:24.500 --> 00:25:29.500
that God is able to do exceedingly,
449
00:25:29.960 --> 00:25:34.040
abundantly above all
450
00:25:34.040 --> 00:25:36.230
that we can ask or think.
451
00:25:37.520 --> 00:25:39.200
That's what he's open to you
452
00:25:39.200 --> 00:25:43.430
and I is amazing things
453
00:25:43.430 --> 00:25:45.050
by His spirit.
454
00:25:45.050 --> 00:25:47.150
He's paved the way.
455
00:25:47.150 --> 00:25:51.650
Jesus took everything for us so
456
00:25:51.650 --> 00:25:56.600
that he could give us everything. It says in Romans
457
00:25:56.600 --> 00:25:59.570
that he didn't spare his own son,
458
00:25:59.570 --> 00:26:02.960
but he gave him up for us all that he would...
459
00:26:02.960 --> 00:26:05.450
that he would give us all things.
460
00:26:05.450 --> 00:26:07.940
Oh, friend, it's so powerful.
461
00:26:07.940 --> 00:26:10.130
I wanna help you say - No to worry.
462
00:26:10.130 --> 00:26:12.260
Here's my 5-part video series.
463
00:26:12.260 --> 00:26:15.080

464
00:26:15.080 --> 00:26:17.960
'cause it's gonna help you or somebody else.
465
00:26:17.960 --> 00:26:21.230
And also the companion study guide: gonna get
466
00:26:21.230 --> 00:26:23.030
that word deeper in your heart.
467
00:26:23.030 --> 00:26:26.870
And you need this book if you're struggling with any kind
468
00:26:26.870 --> 00:26:31.520
of sickness or disease
because Jesus paid for it.
469
00:26:31.520 --> 00:26:34.040
Oh, thank you for being with me.
470
00:26:34.040 --> 00:26:37.880
I love you and I will see you next time.
471
00:26:39.110 --> 00:26:42.290
If you've never received
Jesus as your Savior
472
00:26:42.290 --> 00:26:47.290
and Lord, now is the time for
you to experience a new life
473
00:26:47.400 --> 00:26:49.680
Jesus has to give you.
474
00:26:49.680 --> 00:26:54.000
Pray this prayer with me right now - Lord,
475
00:26:54.000 --> 00:26:58.680
I repent of my sin and receive you as my Savior
476
00:26:58.680 --> 00:27:02.010
and Lord. Wash away my sin
477
00:27:02.010 --> 00:27:04.620
and make me completely new.
478
00:27:04.620 --> 00:27:06.960
I thank you that my sin is removed
479
00:27:06.960 --> 00:27:11.960
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.
480
00:27:12.060 --> 00:27:17.060
I faithfully promise that
I will serve you as my Lord
481
00:27:17.070 --> 00:27:19.710
for the rest of my life -
482
00:27:19.710 --> 00:27:20.710
Amen.
483
00:27:31.860 --> 00:27:33.780
Perhaps I have to do another test.
484
00:27:34.950 --> 00:27:38.010
The only thing to do is to wait.
485
00:27:40.770 --> 00:27:44.670
I wish things have gone another way. I want to be healthy.
486
00:27:47.580 --> 00:27:50.940
If there is no one to support you, don't give up.
487
00:27:50.940 --> 00:27:54.090
Just contact us, choosing your available way.
488
00:27:54.090 --> 00:27:55.830
We're waiting for your call, willing
489
00:27:55.830 --> 00:27:57.060
to give you prayer support.
490
00:28:05.850 --> 00:28:08.790
If two of you shall agree on
earth as touching anything
491
00:28:08.790 --> 00:28:12.960
that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father,
492
00:28:12.960 --> 00:28:13.793
which is in Heaven.
