Get ready for a teaching
that feeds your spirit

00:00:14.940 --> 00:00:16.920 line:15%
uncertain times.
6
00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:20.220 line:15%
And doctrine doesn't bend to culture.
7
00:00:20.220 --> 00:00:21.630 line:15%
We keep it simple,
8
00:00:21.630 --> 00:00:26.220 line:15%
but dive deep revealing a

and a mission that touches the world.
11
00:00:34.620 --> 00:00:36.150 line:15%
Let's join Rick Renner.
12
00:00:38.250 --> 00:00:41.700
Hey friend. Welcome to
the program. It is Friday.
13
00:00:41.700 --> 00:00:42.990
How did that happen?
14
00:00:42.990 --> 00:00:46.140
It seems like this week
just went by like that,
15
00:00:46.140 --> 00:00:48.570
but hey, time flies when you're having fun
16
00:00:48.570 --> 00:00:52.230
and I've been having a blast
teaching you my series called
17
00:00:52.230 --> 00:00:53.490 line:15%
Entry Points, how
18
00:00:53.490 --> 00:00:57.480 line:15%
to Stop the Devil from
Attacking You With Sickness.
19
00:00:57.480 --> 00:01:00.990
You can really Stop him,
you can slam the door shut
20
00:01:00.990 --> 00:01:03.690 line:15%
to prevent sickness from
coming into your life.
21
00:01:03.690 --> 00:01:06.690 line:15%
And this whole series is about
how to close the door comes
22
00:01:06.690 --> 00:01:09.090 line:15%
with a study guide, and of course, I'm
23
00:01:09.090 --> 00:01:11.310 line:15%
so excited about my new book,
24
00:01:11.310 --> 00:01:14.790
which is called Everything You
Need to Know About Healing.
25
00:01:14.790 --> 00:01:16.740 line:15%
It is so comprehensive.
26
00:01:16.740 --> 00:01:19.650 line:15%
The back of the book says How
to close the door to sickness,
27
00:01:19.650 --> 00:01:24.090 line:15%
defeat the Curse, and live
in divine health, long
28
00:01:24.090 --> 00:01:26.130 line:15%
and strong.
29
00:01:26.130 --> 00:01:29.430 line:15%
Wow. I believe it's gonna answer all your questions about
30
00:01:29.430 --> 00:01:31.320 line:15%
healing, but I also want
31
00:01:31.320 --> 00:01:33.960 line:15%
to tell you about Mike Clark's book,
32
00:01:33.960 --> 00:01:36.180 line:15%
which is called There's a Light at the End of the Tunnel.
33
00:01:36.180 --> 00:01:40.200 line:15%
This is a testimony of Mike Clark, my friend, who was healed
34
00:01:40.200 --> 00:01:43.380 line:15%
of cancer, and he chronicles
his story from when he was
35
00:01:43.380 --> 00:01:46.680 line:15%
diagnosed to when he was
declared completely healed.
36
00:01:46.680 --> 00:01:49.140 line:15%
And he wants you to know
there's a light at the end
37
00:01:49.140 --> 00:01:51.810 line:15%
of your tunnel and it will encourage you.
38
00:01:51.810 --> 00:01:53.460 line:15%
It would be a great encouragement
39
00:01:53.460 --> 00:01:57.010 line:15%
to anyone you know who's dealing
with sickness or disease.
40
00:01:57.010 --> 00:01:59.460 line:15%
But hey, when you reach out to us,
41
00:01:59.460 --> 00:02:01.200 line:15%
we also wanna pray for you.
42
00:02:01.200 --> 00:02:04.350 line:15%
And today we want
especially pray for people
43
00:02:04.350 --> 00:02:06.840 line:15%
that are dealing with
physical and mental issues.
44
00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:08.940 line:15%
And if you're dealing
with physical disease
45
00:02:08.940 --> 00:02:10.500 line:15%
or if you're mentally struggling
46
00:02:10.500 --> 00:02:13.440 line:15%
and you just wish there was
somebody that would pray
47
00:02:13.440 --> 00:02:16.740 line:15%
with you, call that number on the screen.
48
00:02:16.740 --> 00:02:19.170 line:15%
We're waiting for that
phone to ring right now.
49
00:02:19.170 --> 00:02:22.950 line:15%
And we sincerely tell you
that when we hear from you,
50
00:02:22.950 --> 00:02:25.080 line:15%
we're gonna pray with power
51
00:02:25.080 --> 00:02:28.080 line:15%
and Jesus is gonna move in your life.
52
00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:30.870 line:15%
He's gonna do what needs to be done.
53
00:02:30.870 --> 00:02:33.870 line:15%
Maybe you'd prefer to write
an email, then write an email,
54
00:02:33.870 --> 00:02:35.220 line:15%
but reach out to us.
55
00:02:35.220 --> 00:02:38.250 line:15%
We want to pray for you.
56
00:02:38.250 --> 00:02:40.380
But hey, reach for your Bible.
57
00:02:40.380 --> 00:02:43.200 line:15%
And today we're gonna see something very,
58
00:02:43.200 --> 00:02:45.780 line:15%
very important in First
Thessalonians chapter
59
00:02:45.780 --> 00:02:47.100 line:15%
four, verse four.
60
00:02:47.100 --> 00:02:49.680 line:15%
But hey, we always use
the Bible in this program,
61
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:51.630 line:15%
and we're believing for a revival
62
00:02:51.630 --> 00:02:54.420 line:15%
of the Bible in the body of Christ.
63
00:02:54.420 --> 00:02:56.280
There's a reason why in every program
64
00:02:56.280 --> 00:02:58.920
with Ecclesiastes eight,
four, where the word
65
00:02:58.920 --> 00:03:00.220 line:15%
of a king is there's power.
66
00:03:00.220 --> 00:03:04.780
I believe the word of God has
power to transform our lives.
67
00:03:04.780 --> 00:03:06.550
And when we embrace the word of God
68
00:03:06.550 --> 00:03:10.060
and obey it, it really releases
the power of God in us.
69
00:03:10.060 --> 00:03:12.340
We need a revival of
the Bible in the church,
70
00:03:12.340 --> 00:03:14.830
and you need to be reading
your Bible, friend.
71
00:03:14.830 --> 00:03:16.210
But hey, open your Bible
72
00:03:16.210 --> 00:03:19.930
to a First Thessalonians
chapter four verse four,
73
00:03:19.930 --> 00:03:23.050 line:15%
and today we're gonna wrap
it up, how to shut the door
74
00:03:23.050 --> 00:03:28.050 line:15%
to the Devil and stop him from
attacking you with sickness.
75
00:03:28.270 --> 00:03:29.470 line:15%
And we're gonna go to this verse,
76
00:03:29.470 --> 00:03:31.180 line:15%
which may seem a little unusual,
77
00:03:31.180 --> 00:03:33.880 line:15%
but you'll understand
why in just a moment.
78
00:03:33.880 --> 00:03:37.660 line:15%
And at First Thessalonians
four, four, Paul says
79
00:03:37.660 --> 00:03:41.530 line:15%
that every one of you should know how
80
00:03:41.530 --> 00:03:44.920 line:15%
to possess his vessel in sanctification
81
00:03:44.920 --> 00:03:48.610 line:15%
and honor the word vessel
refers to the human body.
82
00:03:48.610 --> 00:03:51.850
So you could interpret it that
every one of you should know
83
00:03:51.850 --> 00:03:56.590
how to possess his body in
sanctification and honor.
84
00:03:56.590 --> 00:03:59.380
But this verse is so important
that I wanna take it apart
85
00:03:59.380 --> 00:04:01.270
so you really understand it.
86
00:04:01.270 --> 00:04:04.870
First of all, he begins
with the words, every one,
87
00:04:04.870 --> 00:04:07.150
which in Greek is the word heist us.
88
00:04:07.150 --> 00:04:11.740
It means every single one
of you without exception.
89
00:04:11.740 --> 00:04:14.650 line:15%
And it highlights the universal relevance
90
00:04:14.650 --> 00:04:16.540 line:15%
of this instruction.
91
00:04:16.540 --> 00:04:20.620 line:15%
It is meant for all,
and that means you too.
92
00:04:20.620 --> 00:04:21.760 line:15%
So when you read this verse
93
00:04:21.760 --> 00:04:25.210
and it says everyone, you could
interpret it, it's talking
94
00:04:25.210 --> 00:04:27.340
to me that I should know how
95
00:04:27.340 --> 00:04:31.270
to possess my vessel in
sanctification and in honor.
96
00:04:31.270 --> 00:04:35.770
And the word no is a Greek
word, which means to be aware,
97
00:04:35.770 --> 00:04:37.240 line:15%
to be perceptive.
98
00:04:37.240 --> 00:04:40.750 line:15%
And it conveys the idea of
having a personal awareness.
99
00:04:40.750 --> 00:04:43.090 line:15%
Well, if we just stopped
right there, it means you need
100
00:04:43.090 --> 00:04:44.530
to be aware of your body.
101
00:04:44.530 --> 00:04:47.800
You need to have a personal
awareness about your body,
102
00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:50.260
the unique points of your body.
103
00:04:50.260 --> 00:04:52.690
You need to be aware with
what's good for your body,
104
00:04:52.690 --> 00:04:53.830 line:15%
what's bad for your body.
105
00:04:53.830 --> 00:04:55.660
You need to have an
awareness about your body.
106
00:04:55.660 --> 00:04:57.430
And we'll get to your
body in just a moment.
107
00:04:57.430 --> 00:05:00.430
And it says to know how to possess.
108
00:05:00.430 --> 00:05:05.430 line:15%
And hey, the word possess
describes control or management.
109
00:05:05.500 --> 00:05:09.610 line:15%
Hence, this verse means
that every one of us,
110
00:05:09.610 --> 00:05:13.900 line:15%
without exception, should
become aware of how to control
111
00:05:13.900 --> 00:05:16.210 line:15%
and manage the body.
112
00:05:16.210 --> 00:05:18.010
Wow. And it conveys
113
00:05:18.010 --> 00:05:22.120
that every single Christian
without exception, that's me.
114
00:05:22.120 --> 00:05:25.510
That's you should gain an
awareness of how to govern
115
00:05:25.510 --> 00:05:26.830
and manage our bodies.
116
00:05:26.830 --> 00:05:30.040
And every believer should
cultivate our personal
117
00:05:30.040 --> 00:05:33.550 line:15%
understanding about how
to master their bodies
118
00:05:33.550 --> 00:05:37.690
because their bodies have
been entrusted to them by God
119
00:05:37.690 --> 00:05:39.340
as a vessel.
120
00:05:39.340 --> 00:05:41.380
Then we come to this word vessel.
121
00:05:41.380 --> 00:05:45.940 line:15%
The word vessel in Greek is a
metaphor for the human body,
122
00:05:45.940 --> 00:05:50.940 line:15%
but the Greek word actually
pictures a highly crafted tool.
123
00:05:51.280 --> 00:05:53.530 line:15%
Now your body is a vessel.
124
00:05:53.530 --> 00:05:56.590 line:15%
This particular Greek word
can describe an instrument,
125
00:05:56.590 --> 00:05:59.810 line:15%
it can describe a tool,
it could describe a tent
126
00:05:59.810 --> 00:06:01.220 line:15%
that one lived in.
127
00:06:01.220 --> 00:06:03.890
And in a certain sense, your
body is all of those things.
128
00:06:03.890 --> 00:06:05.480
You live in a tent.
129
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:07.970
This is your temporary dwelling place,
130
00:06:07.970 --> 00:06:09.650
but it also is your vessel.
131
00:06:09.650 --> 00:06:13.670
It's what you work through,
but it's also your instrument.
132
00:06:13.670 --> 00:06:17.000
God has given your body
to you as an instrument.
133
00:06:17.000 --> 00:06:19.430
And my friends, as long as
your body's in good shape,
134
00:06:19.430 --> 00:06:22.580
as long as your instrument
is in good working shape,
135
00:06:22.580 --> 00:06:25.550
you'll be able to function in life.
136
00:06:25.550 --> 00:06:27.225
But now let's talk about the garage.
137
00:06:27.225 --> 00:06:30.440
You know, when I was growing
up, my daddy loved his garage.
138
00:06:30.440 --> 00:06:32.930
I couldn't bear the thought of the garage.
139
00:06:32.930 --> 00:06:35.150 line:15%
My dad just loved to do
everything mechanical.
140
00:06:35.150 --> 00:06:37.010 line:15%
I had no gifts for anything mechanical.
141
00:06:37.010 --> 00:06:39.650 line:15%
I was gifted in a more creative way.
142
00:06:39.650 --> 00:06:43.400 line:15%
But daddy had so many tools,
tools, tools, tools, tools,
143
00:06:43.400 --> 00:06:45.380 line:15%
electric tools, manual tools.
144
00:06:45.380 --> 00:06:47.660 line:15%
He had cabinets and cabinets of tools.
145
00:06:47.660 --> 00:06:49.340 line:15%
He had tools hanging on the wall.
146
00:06:49.340 --> 00:06:52.910
He had tools on the
desk out in the garage.
147
00:06:52.910 --> 00:06:56.150
He had all kinds of wrenches
and screwdrivers and hammers
148
00:06:56.150 --> 00:06:58.610
and all kinds of vices.
149
00:06:58.610 --> 00:07:01.010
A ya ya, he just loved his tools.
150
00:07:01.010 --> 00:07:03.170
But over the year I watched something.
151
00:07:03.170 --> 00:07:07.160
If dad left a tool just laying
in the garage untouched,
152
00:07:08.030 --> 00:07:10.370
even though the garage was
temperature controlled,
153
00:07:10.370 --> 00:07:12.860
there was no water, there was no moisture.
154
00:07:12.860 --> 00:07:16.160
If he left a tool just
laying there untouched
155
00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:20.000
and unused, when he would
come back to it much, much,
156
00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:23.450
much later, that tool
was nearly not usable
157
00:07:24.320 --> 00:07:26.420
because it hadn't been touched.
158
00:07:26.420 --> 00:07:30.110
And over a period of time
when a tool is not touched,
159
00:07:30.110 --> 00:07:32.840
it begins to rust, it begins to corrode.
160
00:07:32.840 --> 00:07:36.860
Even though it's in a temperature
controlled atmosphere,
161
00:07:36.860 --> 00:07:41.540
a tool that is not used becomes unusable.
162
00:07:41.540 --> 00:07:42.590
It becomes unusable.
163
00:07:42.590 --> 00:07:44.360
And before you can use it again,
164
00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:45.500
you gotta really work it over.
165
00:07:45.500 --> 00:07:47.330
You gotta grease it, you gotta oil it,
166
00:07:47.330 --> 00:07:48.500
you gotta get it moving.
167
00:07:48.500 --> 00:07:50.660
And you gotta put a lot
of work into it to get
168
00:07:50.660 --> 00:07:52.370
that tool working.
169
00:07:52.370 --> 00:07:56.750
In the very same way, your body is a tool.
170
00:07:56.750 --> 00:08:00.410
And my friends, if you
don't use your body,
171
00:08:00.410 --> 00:08:03.110
you will lose the ability to use it.
172
00:08:03.110 --> 00:08:04.760
It's your instrument.
173
00:08:04.760 --> 00:08:07.820
If you don't move it,
you'll become immobile.
174
00:08:07.820 --> 00:08:11.120
And you need to understand
that movement is a gift.
175
00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:14.270
It is a gift. So get out of the chair.
176
00:08:14.270 --> 00:08:17.150
If you're just sitting in
the chair for hours and hours
177
00:08:17.150 --> 00:08:20.030
and hours, you're gonna become like a tool
178
00:08:20.030 --> 00:08:22.850
that becomes corroded and a rusty.
179
00:08:22.850 --> 00:08:25.730 line:15%
You know, I'm a writer and
I said for hours and hours
180
00:08:25.730 --> 00:08:27.230 line:15%
and hours writing books.
181
00:08:27.230 --> 00:08:28.640 line:15%
And I'm going to tell you the truth.
182
00:08:28.640 --> 00:08:32.630 line:15%
Sometimes I forget to move, I just forget.
183
00:08:32.630 --> 00:08:35.090 line:15%
And usually when I'm writing,
there's somebody nearby
184
00:08:35.090 --> 00:08:36.650 line:15%
that's working with me
185
00:08:36.650 --> 00:08:38.960 line:15%
and I say to them,
please remind me to move.
186
00:08:38.960 --> 00:08:41.810 line:15%
So every two hours they
say, Rick, you need
187
00:08:41.810 --> 00:08:43.370
to get up, you need to move.
188
00:08:43.370 --> 00:08:44.570 line:15%
And sometimes I don't wanna move
189
00:08:44.570 --> 00:08:45.920
because I'm in the middle of a thought,
190
00:08:45.920 --> 00:08:48.140
but I've learned that if I don't get up
191
00:08:48.140 --> 00:08:51.530
and move, then when I finally
do get around to moving,
192
00:08:51.530 --> 00:08:53.030
it hurts to get up.
193
00:08:53.030 --> 00:08:54.590
I mean, it hurts.
194
00:08:54.590 --> 00:08:56.310 line:15%
It hurts walk
195
00:08:56.310 --> 00:09:00.150
because the body is not
designed just to sit, sit, sit,
196
00:09:00.150 --> 00:09:01.440
and to be immobile.
197
00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:04.170
And today we're living in
a day when people are just
198
00:09:04.170 --> 00:09:06.060
tethered to their computers.
199
00:09:06.060 --> 00:09:08.520
They don't get up for
hours and hours and hours
200
00:09:08.520 --> 00:09:11.550
or they're on their devices
or they're on their pads.
201
00:09:11.550 --> 00:09:14.370
We're living in a day
when people are immobile.
202
00:09:14.370 --> 00:09:17.490
And because there are immobile
people are getting bigger
203
00:09:17.490 --> 00:09:18.810
and bigger and bigger and bigger.
204
00:09:18.810 --> 00:09:21.060
My friends, there are so many issues
205
00:09:21.060 --> 00:09:24.990
that would be solved if we
would just get up and move.
206
00:09:24.990 --> 00:09:27.120
If we would eat right.
207
00:09:27.120 --> 00:09:30.330
We've gotta put the right
foods into our body.
208
00:09:30.330 --> 00:09:33.270
We're told to do everything
we do to the glory of God.
209
00:09:33.270 --> 00:09:36.540
And we're even told to eat
and drink to the glory of God.
210
00:09:36.540 --> 00:09:38.700
And sometimes I look at what I'm eating
211
00:09:38.700 --> 00:09:42.840
and I ask, can I really eat
this to the glory of God?
212
00:09:42.840 --> 00:09:46.080
Can I really eat that portion that I want
213
00:09:46.080 --> 00:09:48.000
to eat to the glory of God?
214
00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:49.680
Or is that gluttony?
215
00:09:49.680 --> 00:09:52.290
And if I can't eat it to the glory of God,
216
00:09:52.290 --> 00:09:54.150
then the answer is I shouldn't eat it
217
00:09:54.150 --> 00:09:56.190
or I should cut down the portion.
218
00:09:56.190 --> 00:09:58.710
We're told to do everything in moderation.
219
00:09:58.710 --> 00:10:01.530
My friends, God is not just
trying to strap us with rules.
220
00:10:01.530 --> 00:10:04.080
He's trying to keep us
healthy, he's trying
221
00:10:04.080 --> 00:10:05.490
to keep us healthy.
222
00:10:05.490 --> 00:10:08.100 line:15%
These are our instruments
223
00:10:08.100 --> 00:10:10.800
and we have got to move
them, we've got to use them
224
00:10:10.800 --> 00:10:12.390
and we've got to take care of them
225
00:10:12.390 --> 00:10:15.540
or they will fall to pieces.
226
00:10:15.540 --> 00:10:19.200
And as we've seen in this
series, a lot of people are sick
227
00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:21.570
because they just haven't
taken care of themselves
228
00:10:21.570 --> 00:10:23.460
or they've acted foolishly
229
00:10:23.460 --> 00:10:26.730
and opened a door for the devil to come in
230
00:10:26.730 --> 00:10:29.430
and make their instrument sick.
231
00:10:29.430 --> 00:10:32.040
You know, in one Corinthians
chapter nine, Paul wrote
232
00:10:32.040 --> 00:10:35.490
and said, I keep my body under.
233
00:10:35.490 --> 00:10:37.470
He was talking about self-discipline.
234
00:10:37.470 --> 00:10:38.550
And it's very interesting
235
00:10:38.550 --> 00:10:40.770
that when you read this in the Greek text,
236
00:10:40.770 --> 00:10:43.320
the words keep my body under
are the Greek word hupo.
237
00:10:43.320 --> 00:10:45.750
PIs of the word. Hubo
means the lower part,
238
00:10:45.750 --> 00:10:48.450
the word piazza describes
the lower half of the face.
239
00:10:49.320 --> 00:10:52.350
Well what's the lower half
of the face? Your mouth.
240
00:10:52.350 --> 00:10:54.540
Your mouth. He was literally saying,
241
00:10:54.540 --> 00:10:57.090
I keep my mouth under control.
242
00:10:57.090 --> 00:10:58.740
And I wanna ask you, are you keeping your
243
00:10:58.740 --> 00:11:00.030
mouth under control?
244
00:11:00.030 --> 00:11:03.900
Are you controlling what you are eating?
245
00:11:03.900 --> 00:11:07.920
My friends, your body is your
instrument, it is your tent.
246
00:11:07.920 --> 00:11:11.640
You want your tent to really
work for you a long time.
247
00:11:11.640 --> 00:11:14.580
And you want your body to serve
you well as the instrument,
248
00:11:14.580 --> 00:11:17.580
the vessel that God gave to you.
249
00:11:17.580 --> 00:11:20.430
And here Paul commands us that every one
250
00:11:20.430 --> 00:11:22.650
of you without exception should know
251
00:11:22.650 --> 00:11:25.200
how you should become familiar.
252
00:11:25.200 --> 00:11:26.820
You should become aware with your body
253
00:11:26.820 --> 00:11:28.080
and learn how to control
254
00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:31.320
or manage your vessel,
your body, your instrument,
255
00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:34.050
and the add in sanctification
256
00:11:34.050 --> 00:11:38.010
and honor in sanctification and honor.
257
00:11:38.010 --> 00:11:39.840
And the word sanctification is a form
258
00:11:39.840 --> 00:11:40.880
of the Greek word
259
00:11:40.880 --> 00:11:42.430 line:15%
hagiasmos,
260
00:11:42.430 --> 00:11:45.346 line:15%
which describes something
that is set apart by God
261
00:11:45.346 --> 00:11:49.950 line:15%
for sacred purposes, implying
that it's holy and special
262
00:11:49.950 --> 00:11:53.415 line:15%
and tells us that in God's view, our
263
00:11:53.415 --> 00:11:55.120 line:15%
are bodies are holy
264
00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:58.960
and special, which means
we should treat them
265
00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:01.210
as being holy and special.
266
00:12:01.210 --> 00:12:03.100
Are you treating your body like it's holy?
267
00:12:03.940 --> 00:12:06.580
Are you treating your
body like it's special?
268
00:12:06.580 --> 00:12:09.760 line:15%
Or are you abusing your body? My friends?
269
00:12:09.760 --> 00:12:13.150
You're supposed to treat
your body like it's holy
270
00:12:13.150 --> 00:12:14.200
and like it's special.
271
00:12:14.200 --> 00:12:15.460
And you have to remember
272
00:12:15.460 --> 00:12:18.160
that one Corinthians chapter six verse 19
273
00:12:18.160 --> 00:12:21.730
and 20 says, no you not
that your body is the temple
274
00:12:21.730 --> 00:12:23.560
of the Holy Ghost.
275
00:12:23.560 --> 00:12:25.720
No you not. That you've
been purchased with a price
276
00:12:25.720 --> 00:12:27.340
and you're not your own.
277
00:12:27.340 --> 00:12:29.500
Your body is the Lord's.
278
00:12:29.500 --> 00:12:32.560
And now you are a steward of your body.
279
00:12:32.560 --> 00:12:34.870
You're to glorify God in your body
280
00:12:34.870 --> 00:12:38.140
and you've got to recognize
that your body is holy
281
00:12:38.140 --> 00:12:39.400
and your body is special.
282
00:12:39.400 --> 00:12:43.150
But then Paul adds that
we are to hold our body,
283
00:12:43.150 --> 00:12:46.270
our vessel in sanctification and honor.
284
00:12:46.270 --> 00:12:48.610
And the word honor is the Greek word time'
285
00:12:48.610 --> 00:12:52.000 line:15%
which describes something
that is of immense value
286
00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:54.190 line:15%
and worth.
287
00:12:54.190 --> 00:12:55.600 line:15%
Do you treat yourself like you're
288
00:12:55.600 --> 00:12:57.310
of immense value and worth?
289
00:12:57.310 --> 00:13:00.700
You should. Your body is
the only body you have.
290
00:13:00.700 --> 00:13:01.990
And if you abuse your body
291
00:13:01.990 --> 00:13:04.630 line:15%
and if you ruin your body,
you're not gonna get another one.
292
00:13:04.630 --> 00:13:06.220 line:15%
Now, God is so good
293
00:13:06.220 --> 00:13:08.020 line:15%
that God will heal you when you get sick,
294
00:13:08.020 --> 00:13:11.320 line:15%
even if your affliction is self-inflicted.
295
00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:15.040
God is so good, he will step in as we saw in Hosea 13:9
296
00:13:15.040 --> 00:13:17.530 line:15%
and he will help us even
when we get ourself in
297
00:13:17.530 --> 00:13:19.240
trouble by ourself.
298
00:13:19.240 --> 00:13:21.580
But my friends better
not to get in trouble.
299
00:13:21.580 --> 00:13:25.240
And if you recognize your
body as being holy and special
300
00:13:25.240 --> 00:13:26.590
and of immense value
301
00:13:26.590 --> 00:13:31.000
and worth, you'll take
better care of your body.
302
00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:34.240
But let's say you've already
treated your body wrong
303
00:13:34.240 --> 00:13:35.800
and now you're in trouble.
304
00:13:35.800 --> 00:13:39.790
You've recognized through
all these 10 episodes
305
00:13:39.790 --> 00:13:40.900
that maybe you've done this
306
00:13:40.900 --> 00:13:42.250
wrong and you've done that wrong.
307
00:13:42.250 --> 00:13:43.810
You've opened a door and now you've
308
00:13:43.810 --> 00:13:45.220
understand why you're sick.
309
00:13:45.220 --> 00:13:48.490
Yes, Jesus paid for the
price for your healing
310
00:13:48.490 --> 00:13:50.320
and health, he really did.
311
00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:52.330 line:15%
But you've self-sabotaged
312
00:13:52.330 --> 00:13:53.680 line:15%
because you've done something wrong.
313
00:13:53.680 --> 00:13:56.170
Or maybe you are one of those
314
00:13:56.170 --> 00:13:58.600
that have just been randomly
affected by the devil
315
00:13:58.600 --> 00:14:01.540
and he's attacked you. If
you've come under attack
316
00:14:01.540 --> 00:14:03.580
for any reason,
317
00:14:03.580 --> 00:14:05.380
how do you get rid of the attack
318
00:14:05.380 --> 00:14:07.750
and how do you get well again?
319
00:14:07.750 --> 00:14:09.730
Well, let me give you a scripture
320
00:14:09.730 --> 00:14:11.740
that I believe will really help you.
321
00:14:11.740 --> 00:14:12.910
It has helped me.
322
00:14:12.910 --> 00:14:16.090
And this is James chapter
four, verse seven.
323
00:14:16.090 --> 00:14:17.740
Look at it in your Bible.
324
00:14:17.740 --> 00:14:21.280
And James four verse seven
says, submit yourselves
325
00:14:21.280 --> 00:14:23.710 line:15%
therefore to God.
326
00:14:23.710 --> 00:14:25.750 line:15%
Resist the devil
327
00:14:26.860 --> 00:14:30.820 line:15%
and he will flee from you.
328
00:14:30.820 --> 00:14:33.010
Now, most people wanna jump
right to the second part
329
00:14:33.010 --> 00:14:35.740
of the verse, resist the
devil and he'll flee from you.
330
00:14:35.740 --> 00:14:39.550 line:15%
But the 1st part of the verse
is most important, it says,
331
00:14:39.550 --> 00:14:42.850 line:15%
submit yourself therefore to God.
332
00:14:42.850 --> 00:14:44.740
What does the word submit mean?
333
00:14:44.740 --> 00:14:47.230
Well, it's a form of the Greek word hupotasso.
334
00:14:47.230 --> 00:14:48.700 line:15%
It's a compound of two words,
335
00:14:48.700 --> 00:14:50.960 line:15%
the word hupo and the word tasso.
336
00:14:50.960 --> 00:14:52.670 line:15%
The word hupo means under,
337
00:14:52.670 --> 00:14:55.010 line:15%
and the word tasso means to arrange.
338
00:14:55.010 --> 00:14:57.380 line:15%
But when you compound the
two words together, hupo
339
00:14:57.380 --> 00:14:59.840 line:15%
and tasso, they form the Greek word hupotasso.
340
00:14:59.840 --> 00:15:02.690 line:15%
Tasso, which hears translated
as the word submit.
341
00:15:02.690 --> 00:15:07.550 line:15%
And it means to properly
arrange oneself under.
342
00:15:07.550 --> 00:15:11.000 line:15%
And it's actually a military
term depicting a soldier's
343
00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:15.380 line:15%
obedience and submission to authority.
344
00:15:15.380 --> 00:15:18.680
And here we find a soldier
that knows he's to listen
345
00:15:18.680 --> 00:15:22.580
to his commander, he's to be
an obedience to his commander.
346
00:15:22.580 --> 00:15:24.650
He's to carry out his
commander's commands,
347
00:15:24.650 --> 00:15:26.360
whether he likes them or not.
348
00:15:26.360 --> 00:15:31.100
His job is to hear, to submit and to obey.
349
00:15:31.100 --> 00:15:33.620
And here we find a person
350
00:15:33.620 --> 00:15:37.970
who properly aligns himself
under the authority of God
351
00:15:37.970 --> 00:15:40.010
and his word.
352
00:15:40.010 --> 00:15:43.640
Perhaps he's been out of
alignment, perhaps he's been fooled
353
00:15:43.640 --> 00:15:45.350
or he is been disobedient.
354
00:15:45.350 --> 00:15:48.260
Perhaps he's had anxiousness
and worry in his heart.
355
00:15:48.260 --> 00:15:51.200
He is had grudges and all
kinds of unforgiveness.
356
00:15:51.200 --> 00:15:53.870 line:15%
These things have caused
him to be out of alignment
357
00:15:53.870 --> 00:15:56.210 line:15%
with God, his word and his power.
358
00:15:56.210 --> 00:15:58.820 line:15%
But now he recognizes I've done wrong.
359
00:15:58.820 --> 00:16:00.140 line:15%
I've opened a door
360
00:16:00.140 --> 00:16:03.110 line:15%
that's allowed all these foul
things to come into my life.
361
00:16:03.110 --> 00:16:05.660 line:15%
It's time for me to get
back into alignment.
362
00:16:05.660 --> 00:16:09.410
So he submits himself to God,
recognizes God's authority,
363
00:16:09.410 --> 00:16:12.500
aligns himself under God's authority.
364
00:16:12.500 --> 00:16:14.990
But there is something
else really important.
365
00:16:14.990 --> 00:16:16.585
This word, hupotasso,
366
00:16:16.585 --> 00:16:20.930
importantly described one who had protection
367
00:16:20.930 --> 00:16:24.920
because he was hiding
behind the back of somebody
368
00:16:24.920 --> 00:16:26.030
with great authority.
369
00:16:26.030 --> 00:16:31.030
And here we find there is
protection in submission.
370
00:16:31.160 --> 00:16:33.320
That's why you need to be submitted
371
00:16:33.320 --> 00:16:36.740
to whoever's over you in
the Lord, to your pastor.
372
00:16:36.740 --> 00:16:38.780
If you're married to your
husband, if you're a child
373
00:16:38.780 --> 00:16:41.150
to your parents, you
need to be in submission.
374
00:16:41.150 --> 00:16:43.310
If you're at work, you
need to be in submission
375
00:16:43.310 --> 00:16:47.180
to your employer, my friends,
when you are submitted,
376
00:16:47.180 --> 00:16:49.910
there is protection in submission.
377
00:16:49.910 --> 00:16:53.240
All of that is in this word,
378
00:16:53.240 --> 00:16:56.360
hupotasso, which is translated submit, submit yourselves
379
00:16:56.360 --> 00:16:58.430
therefore to God.
380
00:16:58.430 --> 00:17:02.240
And here again we find that
in a position of submission,
381
00:17:02.240 --> 00:17:05.360
you have God's divine protection
382
00:17:05.360 --> 00:17:10.360
and the ability to resist the devil.
383
00:17:10.550 --> 00:17:15.170
But that power to resist the
devil is triggered when you're
384
00:17:15.170 --> 00:17:16.760
in submission to God.
385
00:17:16.760 --> 00:17:19.670
So you may need to repent
for doing things wrong.
386
00:17:19.670 --> 00:17:21.560
You may need to repent for wrong attitudes
387
00:17:21.560 --> 00:17:24.500
or foolish behavior or disobedience.
388
00:17:24.500 --> 00:17:27.290
And by repenting you
get back into alignment
389
00:17:27.290 --> 00:17:29.720
and suddenly you're in
a position to resist.
390
00:17:29.720 --> 00:17:32.210
Well, the word resist in verse 7 is the Greek
391
00:17:32.210 --> 00:17:33.650 line:15%
word anthistemi.
392
00:17:33.650 --> 00:17:35.330 line:15%
It's a compound of two words,
393
00:17:35.330 --> 00:17:36.920 line:15%
the word anti and the word histamine.
394
00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:39.050 line:15%
The word anti means against,
395
00:17:39.050 --> 00:17:40.940 line:15%
and the word histamine means to stand.
396
00:17:40.940 --> 00:17:43.010 line:15%
But when you compound
the two words together,
397
00:17:43.010 --> 00:17:47.180 line:15%
the new word anthistemi, means to stand against
398
00:17:47.180 --> 00:17:49.470 line:15%
or to stand in opposition to.
399
00:17:49.470 --> 00:17:52.170 line:15%
And it demonstrates the attitude of one
400
00:17:52.170 --> 00:17:55.020 line:15%
who is fiercely opposed to something and
401
00:17:55.020 --> 00:18:00.020 line:15%
therefore determines to do
everything in his power to
402
00:18:00.420 --> 00:18:02.160 line:15%
resistance.
403
00:18:02.160 --> 00:18:06.750
Furthermore, this word
resist, means to defy,
404
00:18:06.750 --> 00:18:09.390
to stand against or to withstand.
405
00:18:09.390 --> 00:18:12.870
Now hear this part, it
depicts a well thought out
406
00:18:12.870 --> 00:18:17.310
and well-planned resistance, for example:
407
00:18:17.310 --> 00:18:19.770
rather than just say, I'm gonna resist the devil,
408
00:18:19.770 --> 00:18:21.090
if now you know you're sick
409
00:18:21.090 --> 00:18:24.900
because you've had unforgiveness, you're making a decision
410
00:18:24.900 --> 00:18:26.790
to deal with the
unforgiveness, you're going
411
00:18:26.790 --> 00:18:28.140
to forgive instead.
412
00:18:28.140 --> 00:18:31.530
And by choosing to forgive,
you're developing a plan
413
00:18:31.530 --> 00:18:33.510
that's gonna push the enemy out.
414
00:18:33.510 --> 00:18:34.950
If you've been disobedience,
415
00:18:34.950 --> 00:18:36.540
you're gonna choose to be disobedient.
416
00:18:36.540 --> 00:18:38.520
And there's a well thought out plan
417
00:18:38.520 --> 00:18:40.380
that's gonna push the devil out.
418
00:18:40.380 --> 00:18:42.960
It means that when you're
properly aligned under the
419
00:18:42.960 --> 00:18:46.680 line:15%
authority of God and hiding
behind his protective hand,
420
00:18:46.680 --> 00:18:49.140
he is your fierce protector
421
00:18:49.140 --> 00:18:52.530
and he enables you to
push against the enemy
422
00:18:52.530 --> 00:18:54.420
and the enemy will flee.
423
00:18:54.420 --> 00:18:56.220
That's the next thing the verse says.
424
00:18:56.220 --> 00:19:00.780
And the word flee is a Greek
word, which means to flee,
425
00:19:00.780 --> 00:19:04.230 line:15%
to take flight, to run away,
426
00:19:04.230 --> 00:19:07.800 line:15%
to move one's feet as fast as possible
427
00:19:07.800 --> 00:19:09.480 line:15%
or to escape.
428
00:19:09.480 --> 00:19:13.770 line:15%
And it pictures someone's feet
barely touching the ground
429
00:19:13.770 --> 00:19:16.650 line:15%
as he flees from imminent danger.
430
00:19:16.650 --> 00:19:19.440
And now we find that when
a believer has repented
431
00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:20.910
of anything wrong,
432
00:19:20.910 --> 00:19:23.430
he gets into alignment
under the authority of God
433
00:19:23.430 --> 00:19:25.620
and submits to God and chooses to obey God
434
00:19:25.620 --> 00:19:27.510
and to write what is wrong.
435
00:19:27.510 --> 00:19:29.460
And he begins to resist.
436
00:19:29.460 --> 00:19:33.810
So much power is released through that kind of a believer
437
00:19:33.810 --> 00:19:35.790
that the devil hits the road.
438
00:19:35.790 --> 00:19:37.500
He runs so fast,
439
00:19:37.500 --> 00:19:42.500
his feet don't hit the ground
at the same time as he flees.
440
00:19:42.600 --> 00:19:45.810
Amazing. And let me give you the RIV
441
00:19:45.810 --> 00:19:47.730
of James 4:7.
442
00:19:47.730 --> 00:19:51.060 line:15%
Here it is. It is imperative
that you make the decision
443
00:19:51.060 --> 00:19:53.940 line:15%
to properly align yourselves
under the authority
444
00:19:53.940 --> 00:19:58.170 line:15%
of God in a submitted position
that actually provides you
445
00:19:58.170 --> 00:19:59.760 line:15%
with protection.
446
00:19:59.760 --> 00:20:03.420 line:15%
Being submitted to his authority gives you the ability
447
00:20:03.420 --> 00:20:07.170 line:15%
to defy, oppose, stand steadfastly against
448
00:20:07.170 --> 00:20:11.160 line:15%
and withstand the accusing
slanderous trap setting
449
00:20:11.160 --> 00:20:13.080 line:15%
behavior of the devil.
450
00:20:13.080 --> 00:20:16.830 line:15%
In fact, he'll be so terrified of you
451
00:20:16.830 --> 00:20:19.410 line:15%
that he'll move his feet as fast as he can
452
00:20:19.410 --> 00:20:20.790 line:15%
to get away from you.
453
00:20:20.790 --> 00:20:22.830 line:15%
And not only will he flee from you,
454
00:20:22.830 --> 00:20:26.580 line:15%
he'll run like a criminal
terrified of prosecution,
455
00:20:26.580 --> 00:20:30.270 line:15%
so scared that he'll want
to do all he can to put
456
00:20:30.270 --> 00:20:34.740 line:15%
as much space between
him and you as possible.
457
00:20:36.000 --> 00:20:39.870
That's what happens when you
are in a submitted position
458
00:20:39.870 --> 00:20:42.510
under the authority of God and his word,
459
00:20:42.510 --> 00:20:43.890
and you are in obedience.
460
00:20:43.890 --> 00:20:45.810
Suddenly you're protected.
461
00:20:45.810 --> 00:20:48.640
You are empowered to
push against the enemy
462
00:20:48.640 --> 00:20:51.400
and the enemy takes flight.
463
00:20:51.400 --> 00:20:54.520
So if you stay in submission
to God, if you pray,
464
00:20:54.520 --> 00:20:57.370
if you grab hold of the
power of the Holy Ghost,
465
00:20:57.370 --> 00:20:59.410
if you make the decision
you are gonna push
466
00:20:59.410 --> 00:21:02.860
until the enemy moves,
God will empower you
467
00:21:02.860 --> 00:21:07.210 line:15%
and he will move right out,
which means you don't have
468
00:21:07.210 --> 00:21:09.820 line:15%
to resign yourself to being sick.
469
00:21:09.820 --> 00:21:12.760 line:15%
If you'll do what this scripture says in James 4:
470
00:21:12.760 --> 00:21:15.370 line:15%
7, you can push that sickness
471
00:21:15.370 --> 00:21:18.880 line:15%
and any attack of the enemy
right outta your life.
472
00:21:18.880 --> 00:21:23.675 line:15%
That is the promise of James 4:7.
473
00:21:23.675 --> 00:21:26.500
I'll be back in just a moment
and I'm going to pray for you.
474
00:21:34.780 --> 00:21:36.610 line:15%
Someone has asked a very good question
475
00:21:36.610 --> 00:21:38.620 line:15%
How should the church adapt
476
00:21:38.620 --> 00:21:41.350 line:15%
to modern technology and changes?
477
00:21:41.350 --> 00:21:44.860 line:15%
Well, there's nothing wrong
with changing technology.
478
00:21:44.860 --> 00:21:47.320
The reason we have the printed Bible is
479
00:21:47.320 --> 00:21:51.370
because Gutenberg developed
the Gutenberg press.
480
00:21:51.370 --> 00:21:54.220 line:15%
Before that all the Bibles
were written by hand.
481
00:21:54.220 --> 00:21:56.950 line:15%
But when the Gutenberg
press was developed,
482
00:21:56.950 --> 00:21:59.260 line:15%
that was the technology of the day
483
00:21:59.260 --> 00:22:02.110
and it caused the word
of God to go everywhere.
484
00:22:02.110 --> 00:22:03.220
There's nothing wrong
485
00:22:03.220 --> 00:22:07.150
with changing technologies
if it enables you
486
00:22:07.150 --> 00:22:10.750
to take the word of God to more places and to more people.
487
00:22:10.750 --> 00:22:14.350
But what we do not change is
what the word of God says.
488
00:22:14.350 --> 00:22:18.700 line:15%
We never change the content
of the Bible to fit culture,
489
00:22:18.700 --> 00:22:20.950 line:15%
but if we find a new
technology which helps us
490
00:22:20.950 --> 00:22:23.740 line:15%
to be more effective,
sure we ought to use it
491
00:22:23.740 --> 00:22:27.130 line:15%
because our job is to reach as many people
492
00:22:27.130 --> 00:22:28.960 line:15%
as we possibly can.
493
00:22:28.960 --> 00:22:32.080 line:15%
The devil is looking for
a way to access your life.
494
00:22:32.080 --> 00:22:35.560 line:15%
And if every door is not
shut, he will find a way in.
495
00:22:35.560 --> 00:22:39.010 line:15%
In Rick Renner's 10 part series, Entry Points, How
496
00:22:39.010 --> 00:22:40.690 line:15%
to Stop the Devil from Attacking You
497
00:22:40.690 --> 00:22:43.750 line:15%
With Sickness, you'll learn how to walk in your healing,
498
00:22:43.750 --> 00:22:46.090 line:15%
experiencing it, enjoying it,
499
00:22:46.090 --> 00:22:47.860 line:15%

00:23:54.560 --> 00:23:57.500
Hey guys, this is Rick
Renner and guess where I am.
526
00:23:57.500 --> 00:24:00.470
This is the lunchroom
in our Tulsa Ministry
527
00:24:00.470 --> 00:24:02.210
headquarters facility.
528
00:24:02.210 --> 00:24:04.490
People have to have a place to work
529
00:24:04.490 --> 00:24:08.870
and they work really hard in
this facility taking calls,
530
00:24:08.870 --> 00:24:11.270
answering letters from thousands
531
00:24:11.270 --> 00:24:13.400
and thousands of people who reach out
532
00:24:13.400 --> 00:24:15.320 line:15%
to us every day and every week.
533
00:24:15.320 --> 00:24:18.950
But in this room, we
decided to adorn the walls
534
00:24:18.950 --> 00:24:22.910
with photographs of all the
places where we have offices
535
00:24:22.910 --> 00:24:24.830
for Renner Ministries.
536
00:24:24.830 --> 00:24:28.370
Behind me, there's a
beautiful photograph of Moscow
537
00:24:28.370 --> 00:24:31.880
because you know we have a
very important office there.
538
00:24:31.880 --> 00:24:34.130
Then there's a photograph of London
539
00:24:34.130 --> 00:24:36.140
because we have an office in England
540
00:24:36.140 --> 00:24:39.740
and we've had an office in
England for years and years.
541
00:24:39.740 --> 00:24:43.010
Then there's a beautiful picture of Riga where Denise and I
542
00:24:43.010 --> 00:24:45.770
and our boys live for nine years
543
00:24:45.770 --> 00:24:49.610
and our European office in Riga handles
544
00:24:49.610 --> 00:24:52.790
so much correspondence from
people that reach out to us.
545
00:24:52.790 --> 00:24:55.820
And then there is a photograph
of the Oklahoma State Capitol
546
00:24:55.820 --> 00:24:59.570
to represent this office, which is in the state of Oklahoma.
547
00:24:59.570 --> 00:25:02.630
But right now we're trying to pay off this facility.
548
00:25:02.630 --> 00:25:05.330
It's called the Ministry
Expansion Project.
549
00:25:05.330 --> 00:25:09.380
We've already paid off
83% of the facility.
550
00:25:09.380 --> 00:25:12.770
And my friends, we need your
help to help us finish this.
551
00:25:12.770 --> 00:25:15.080 line:15%
And if you're not already
a part of the Giving Team,
552
00:25:15.080 --> 00:25:17.360 line:15%
I'm inviting you to join us
553
00:25:17.360 --> 00:25:20.000 line:15%
and to help us pay off this facility.
554
00:25:20.000 --> 00:25:22.730 line:15%
And when it is finished being paid for,
555
00:25:22.730 --> 00:25:25.070 line:15%
it's gonna release all those finances
556
00:25:25.070 --> 00:25:28.970 line:15%
so we can keep taking the teaching of the Bible to the ends
557
00:25:28.970 --> 00:25:30.830 line:15%
of the earth.
558
00:25:30.830 --> 00:25:33.050 line:15%
The thank you for being a part.
559
00:25:43.550 --> 00:25:45.080
Today, I am wrapping up my series,
560
00:25:45.080 --> 00:25:47.060 line:15%
which is called Entry Points, How
561
00:25:47.060 --> 00:25:50.450 line:15%
to Stop the Devil from
Attacking You with Sickness,
562
00:25:50.450 --> 00:25:51.860 line:15%
and you really can.
563
00:25:51.860 --> 00:25:54.140 line:15%
And this series comes with a study guide
564
00:25:54.140 --> 00:25:56.720 line:15%
and I again want to
tell you about my book,
565
00:25:56.720 --> 00:25:59.210 line:15%
which is called Everything You
Need to Know About Healing.
566
00:25:59.210 --> 00:26:01.250 line:15%
Somebody said, why does Rick Renner
567
00:26:01.250 --> 00:26:02.540 line:15%
always talk about his books?
568
00:26:02.540 --> 00:26:04.970 line:15%
Number one, because the
Lord told me to write,
569
00:26:04.970 --> 00:26:07.100 line:15%
I'm writing in obedience to the Lord.
570
00:26:07.100 --> 00:26:10.760 line:15%
Number two, because this is
material I believe is really
571
00:26:10.760 --> 00:26:12.830 line:15%
gonna make a difference in your life.
572
00:26:12.830 --> 00:26:15.770 line:15%
I believe that. And this
book is everything you need
573
00:26:15.770 --> 00:26:17.180 line:15%
to know about healing.
574
00:26:17.180 --> 00:26:20.840 line:15%
And I wanna mention one last
time my friend's book called,
575
00:26:20.840 --> 00:26:22.940 line:15%
There's A Light At The End Of Your Tunnel, written
576
00:26:22.940 --> 00:26:24.350 line:15%
by Mike Clark.
577
00:26:24.350 --> 00:26:26.750 line:15%
It's his personal testimony about
578
00:26:26.750 --> 00:26:29.480 line:15%
how he walked from a bad
diagnosis into health.
579
00:26:29.480 --> 00:26:31.340 line:15%
And you can do the same thing.
580
00:26:31.340 --> 00:26:32.390 line:15%
This would encourage you
581
00:26:32.390 --> 00:26:34.910 line:15%
or it'd be a great encouragement to somebody else
582
00:26:34.910 --> 00:26:38.060 line:15%
you know that's dealing with sickness and disease.
583
00:26:38.060 --> 00:26:39.740 line:15%
Jesus wants us to be well.
584
00:26:39.740 --> 00:26:43.590 line:15%
He died on the cross for forgiveness of sin, peace of mind,
585
00:26:43.590 --> 00:26:46.650 line:15%
the removal of guilt and shame and health
586
00:26:46.650 --> 00:26:51.060 line:15%
and healing in your body
and in your mind - say Amen.
587
00:26:51.060 --> 00:26:53.640 line:15%
But hey, if you need prayer,
please reach out to us.
588
00:26:53.640 --> 00:26:56.040 line:15%
Call the number on the
screen or send us an email.
589
00:26:56.040 --> 00:26:58.680 line:15%
And when we hear from you,
we're gonna pray for you.
590
00:26:58.680 --> 00:27:00.720 line:15%
And I release the healing power
591
00:27:00.720 --> 00:27:04.830 line:15%
of God into your life right now in Jesus'
592
00:27:04.830 --> 00:27:07.050 line:15%
name - Amen.
593
00:27:07.050 --> 00:27:08.340 line:15%
See you in the next program
594
00:27:08.340 --> 00:27:11.670
but please remember Ecclesiastes 8:4 says,
595
00:27:11.670 --> 00:27:14.730
"Where the word of a king is, there is power."
596
00:27:15.600 --> 00:27:17.820 line:15%
If you've never received
Jesus as your Savior
597
00:27:17.820 --> 00:27:22.230 line:15%
and Lord, now is the time for
you to experience a new life
598
00:27:22.230 --> 00:27:24.390 line:15%
Jesus has to give you.
599
00:27:24.390 --> 00:27:28.470 line:15%
Pray this prayer with me right now - Lord,
600
00:27:28.470 --> 00:27:32.490 line:15%
I repent of my sin and receive you as my Savior
601
00:27:32.490 --> 00:27:35.460 line:15%
and Lord. Wash away my sin
602
00:27:35.460 --> 00:27:38.490 line:15%
and make me completely new.
603
00:27:38.490 --> 00:27:42.360 line:15%
I thank you that my sin is removed
604
00:27:42.360 --> 00:27:47.010 line:15%
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.
605
00:27:47.850 --> 00:27:51.780 line:15%
I faithfully promise that
I will serve you as my Lord
606
00:27:51.780 --> 00:27:52.860 line:15%
for the rest of my
607
00:27:52.860 --> 00:27:54.540 line:15%
life -
608
00:27:54.540 --> 00:27:59.310 line:15%
Amen. If you just prayed the
prayer of salvation with us,
609
00:27:59.310 --> 00:28:01.260 line:15%
would you please let us know by going
