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
00:00:07.260 --> 00:00:09.810
Hello friend. My name is Denise Renner
4
00:00:09.810 --> 00:00:13.170
and I wanna welcome you to my program.
5
00:00:13.170 --> 00:00:18.090
Today we are gonna talk about - Recovering All.
6
00:00:18.090 --> 00:00:21.840
You know, the Bible says in John 10:10,
7
00:00:21.840 --> 00:00:26.700 line:15%
that the thief comes except for to steal,
8
00:00:26.700 --> 00:00:29.100 line:15%
kill, and destroy.
9
00:00:29.100 --> 00:00:31.590 line:15%
But Jesus came that you might have life
10
00:00:31.590 --> 00:00:35.430 line:15%
and life more abundantly.
11
00:00:35.430 --> 00:00:39.030 line:15%
Well, you can see the
absolute opposites of
12
00:00:39.030 --> 00:00:43.350 line:15%
what the thief came to do,
but what Jesus came to do.
13
00:00:43.350 --> 00:00:45.360 line:15%
And so when the thief does come
14
00:00:45.360 --> 00:00:49.800 line:15%
and he does try to
steal, we have the power
15
00:00:49.800 --> 00:00:54.630 line:15%
of God on the inside of us to recover all.
16
00:00:54.630 --> 00:00:58.170 line:15%
And that's what I wanna talk to you about today.
17
00:00:58.170 --> 00:01:02.910 line:15%
And I want to offer to you my 5-part video series,
18
00:01:02.910 --> 00:01:06.150 line:15%
You Can Recover All.
19
00:01:06.150 --> 00:01:09.150 line:15%
Friend I've experienced in this in my life
20
00:01:09.150 --> 00:01:11.580 line:15%
and I know you probably have too,
21
00:01:11.580 --> 00:01:14.310 line:15%
but we've got to continue
22
00:01:14.310 --> 00:01:17.880 line:15%
not not stopping
23
00:01:17.880 --> 00:01:21.360 line:15%
and not just letting the
enemy put things on us
24
00:01:21.360 --> 00:01:25.140 line:15%
or on our family or on our
loved ones or on our finances,
25
00:01:25.140 --> 00:01:28.110 line:15%
but we got to go in and recover all.
26
00:01:28.110 --> 00:01:33.110 line:15%
And it also has a companion
study guide with it.
27
00:01:33.240 --> 00:01:35.130 line:15%
And I wanna offer you my book.
28
00:01:35.130 --> 00:01:37.740 line:15%
And I think it's really
important with this series
29
00:01:37.740 --> 00:01:40.050 line:15%
because you've got to be Unstoppable.
30
00:01:40.050 --> 00:01:42.690 line:15%
And you're gonna see in
each one of these lessons
31
00:01:42.690 --> 00:01:45.660 line:15%
that we're gonna go into that the people
32
00:01:45.660 --> 00:01:49.140 line:15%
who recovered all they were Unstoppable.
33
00:01:49.140 --> 00:01:52.470 line:15%
Well, I'm excited to open this lesson
34
00:01:52.470 --> 00:01:54.390 line:15%
to you today.
35
00:01:54.390 --> 00:01:57.870 line:15%
So stay with me and I'm
gonna come right back
36
00:01:57.870 --> 00:02:02.850 line:15%
and we're gonna talk about how - You Can Recover All.
37
00:02:03.870 --> 00:02:07.830 line:15%
It's time for big miracles
and changes in your life.
38
00:02:08.730 --> 00:02:10.020 line:15%
Join Denise Renner
39

and dive into the study of God's word which has great power
40
00:02:13.620 --> 00:02:17.670
to strengthen faith, inspire change, heal physically
41
00:02:17.670 --> 00:02:21.150 line:15%
and spiritually, and most importantly help you learn about
42
00:02:21.150 --> 00:02:23.400 line:15%
the power of Christ Jesus living in you.
43
00:02:24.510 --> 00:02:26.550 line:15%
It's time with Denise Renner.
44
00:02:28.770 --> 00:02:32.937 line:15%
We are gonna start our lesson in 2 Chronicles 20,
45
00:02:34.440 --> 00:02:39.330 line:15%
and you're gonna see that a story of those
46
00:02:39.330 --> 00:02:42.030 line:15%
who had a huge problem.
47
00:02:43.590 --> 00:02:47.220 line:15%
I mean certain death was their future,
48
00:02:47.220 --> 00:02:51.180 line:15%
but God is so great at large problems.
49
00:02:51.180 --> 00:02:56.180
The largest problem that the,
that God I think ever had
50
00:02:56.580 --> 00:02:59.290
was when Adam sinned
51
00:02:59.290 --> 00:03:03.970
and man fell from the
place that he had with God.
52
00:03:03.970 --> 00:03:08.970
But God had a plan right
there to restore all.
53
00:03:09.610 --> 00:03:14.610
He wanted to restore back to man what man had with God.
54
00:03:15.220 --> 00:03:18.010
And he gave Jesus, he came himself
55
00:03:18.010 --> 00:03:21.580
and gave himself to restore all to you.
56
00:03:21.580 --> 00:03:26.380
And now the Holy Spirit lives in you.
57
00:03:26.380 --> 00:03:29.230
He's the great planner,
the great strateger,
58
00:03:29.230 --> 00:03:33.160
the great teacher, the great
guide, the great comforter.
59
00:03:33.160 --> 00:03:36.670
And he can help us friend, no matter
60
00:03:36.670 --> 00:03:40.570
what is coming against you
right now in your life,
61
00:03:40.570 --> 00:03:45.010
he can help you recover all
62
00:03:45.010 --> 00:03:47.980
and that you don't have to settle for just
63
00:03:47.980 --> 00:03:52.000
what the devil has
handed out to you or life
64
00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:53.920
or your situation
65
00:03:53.920 --> 00:03:58.090
because the Greater One
is on the inside of you.
66
00:03:58.090 --> 00:04:01.480
And you're gonna see in today's lesson
67
00:04:01.480 --> 00:04:05.020
how it looked horrible for Judah,
68
00:04:05.020 --> 00:04:08.860
but God had his plans
69
00:04:08.860 --> 00:04:10.780
and they recovered all.
70
00:04:10.780 --> 00:04:14.920
So we start in 2 Chronicles and it's chapter 20.
71
00:04:14.920 --> 00:04:17.590
And so what has happened is
72
00:04:17.590 --> 00:04:21.520 line:15%
that there are three different armies
73
00:04:21.520 --> 00:04:23.290
that are coming against Israel:
74
00:04:23.290 --> 00:04:27.280
3. And Israel -
75
00:04:27.280 --> 00:04:31.930
if this is only left up to
the natural, Israel is going
76
00:04:31.930 --> 00:04:36.250
to be slaughtered and every
one of them are going to die.
77
00:04:36.250 --> 00:04:40.930
That's how serious this is. That's how big those armies are.
78
00:04:40.930 --> 00:04:44.200
And that's how ferocious
they are in wanting
79
00:04:44.200 --> 00:04:46.420
to take down Israel.
80
00:04:48.250 --> 00:04:50.320
And it says in verse 3: And Jehosaphat, that was the king
81
00:04:54.640 --> 00:04:58.060 line:15%
he feared and he set
himself to seek the Lord
82
00:04:58.060 --> 00:05:00.910 line:15%
and proclaimed the fast throughout Judah.
83
00:05:00.910 --> 00:05:04.420
Now I wanna point out to you that the 1st thing
84
00:05:04.420 --> 00:05:07.870
that Jehosaphat did was that he feared:
85
00:05:07.870 --> 00:05:10.960
that would be a normal reaction.
86
00:05:10.960 --> 00:05:13.750
But the 2nd thing he did
87
00:05:13.750 --> 00:05:16.210
was he set himself
88
00:05:16.210 --> 00:05:19.180
to seek the Lord. And friends,
89
00:05:19.180 --> 00:05:22.630
so many times when something comes our way,
90
00:05:23.530 --> 00:05:25.930
maybe we'll give it a 5-minute prayer
91
00:05:25.930 --> 00:05:29.110
or we'll give God two weeks to solve it.
92
00:05:29.110 --> 00:05:33.700
But there has to be that place
93
00:05:33.700 --> 00:05:37.990
that comes in our faith where we say - God,
94
00:05:38.830 --> 00:05:42.250
you are who you said you are.
95
00:05:42.250 --> 00:05:46.030
And I'm not moving from my place of faith
96
00:05:46.030 --> 00:05:50.110
until I see you do what
it is you've promised me
97
00:05:50.110 --> 00:05:51.310
that you will do.
98
00:05:51.310 --> 00:05:54.640
And when you set yourself like that,
99
00:05:54.640 --> 00:05:57.860
your vision is not on your problem.
100
00:05:57.860 --> 00:06:00.350
Your vision is on the Lord.
101
00:06:00.350 --> 00:06:03.590
And that's exactly what Jehosaphat did.
102
00:06:03.590 --> 00:06:08.000
He set himself not to go over
103
00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:09.530
and over and over the problem,
104
00:06:09.530 --> 00:06:11.420
the problem was very obvious -
105
00:06:11.420 --> 00:06:14.540
obvious - they were gonna die the next day,
106
00:06:14.540 --> 00:06:18.740
but he set himself to seek the Lord
107
00:06:18.740 --> 00:06:23.090
and he proclaimed a
fast over all of Judah.
108
00:06:25.070 --> 00:06:28.550 line:15%
And so they gathered
together to seek the Lord.
109
00:06:28.550 --> 00:06:33.290 line:15%
And then Jehosaphat, he starts
110
00:06:34.430 --> 00:06:37.070
telling God who God is
111
00:06:37.070 --> 00:06:39.830
and friend, that's a very important thing.
112
00:06:39.830 --> 00:06:43.130
Many times, like I just said,
we just have our problem
113
00:06:43.130 --> 00:06:44.930
and we just pray short prayers
114
00:06:44.930 --> 00:06:47.720
and we just think that that's gonna be it.
115
00:06:47.720 --> 00:06:50.810
Sometimes it that might be it,
116
00:06:50.810 --> 00:06:54.170
but sometimes that mountain might not move
117
00:06:54.170 --> 00:06:58.130
if you just say some short prayer; maybe something needs
118
00:06:58.130 --> 00:07:02.060
to be established in you for
you to really believe God.
119
00:07:03.020 --> 00:07:05.150
My mother used to say, it's really good
120
00:07:05.150 --> 00:07:09.230
that you know all these scriptures, but do you believe them?
121
00:07:10.310 --> 00:07:11.480
That's the important thing.
122
00:07:13.790 --> 00:07:18.200
A lot of people have it memorized but don't believe it.
123
00:07:18.200 --> 00:07:21.050
A lot of people say it with their mouth,
124
00:07:21.050 --> 00:07:22.640
but don't believe it.
125
00:07:22.640 --> 00:07:25.640
It matters what you believe.
126
00:07:26.690 --> 00:07:31.100
And in this situation, Jehosaphat
127
00:07:31.100 --> 00:07:34.880
tells God who he is for 3
128
00:07:34.880 --> 00:07:38.660
or 4 verses and he says - Are you not -
129
00:07:38.660 --> 00:07:43.460 line:15%
at verse 7, he said - Are you not our God
130
00:07:43.460 --> 00:07:47.690 line:15%
who drove out the inhabitants of the land
131
00:07:47.690 --> 00:07:49.370 line:15%
before your people Israel
132
00:07:49.370 --> 00:07:52.160 line:15%
and gave it to the descendants of Abraham,
133
00:07:52.160 --> 00:07:54.710 line:15%
your friend forever?
134
00:07:54.710 --> 00:07:56.690 line:15%
And they dwell in it
135
00:07:56.690 --> 00:08:01.370 line:15%
and have built you a sanctuary
in it for your name, saying,
136
00:08:01.370 --> 00:08:04.940 line:15%
if disaster comes upon us:
sword, judgment, pestilence
137
00:08:04.940 --> 00:08:08.360 line:15%
or famine, we will stand before this temple
138
00:08:08.360 --> 00:08:12.260 line:15%
and in your...presence for your name
139
00:08:12.260 --> 00:08:17.240 line:15%
is in this temple and cry out
to you in all our affliction
140
00:08:17.240 --> 00:08:19.460 line:15%
and you will hear and save.
141
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:24.410 line:15%
He's telling God who he
is and what he promised.
142
00:08:24.410 --> 00:08:27.200
It's such a big part
143
00:08:27.200 --> 00:08:31.700
of us positioning ourselves
to receive the miracle.
144
00:08:31.700 --> 00:08:36.700
And that's what you see
that Jehosaphat is doing.
145
00:08:36.890 --> 00:08:38.600
The 1st thing he did well -
146
00:08:38.600 --> 00:08:40.400
the 1st thing he did was he feared.
147
00:08:40.400 --> 00:08:45.260
The 2nd thing that he did, he set himself.
148
00:08:45.260 --> 00:08:48.140
He said - God, I'm gonna trust in you.
149
00:08:48.140 --> 00:08:52.100
I'm calling a fast. We
are gonna seek you Lord.
150
00:08:52.100 --> 00:08:54.440
We're not gonna concentrate
on our problem God,
151
00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:55.800
we're gonna seek you.
152
00:08:55.800 --> 00:08:58.890
We're gonna put our eyes on you.
153
00:08:58.890 --> 00:09:03.150
And then, and then he
proclaimed who God was.
154
00:09:04.020 --> 00:09:08.910
And then after that you will
see what he did in verse 12:
155
00:09:10.290 --> 00:09:14.160
then he prays, then he ask
156
00:09:14.160 --> 00:09:16.950 line:15%
and he says - O our God,
157
00:09:16.950 --> 00:09:20.280 line:15%
will you not judge them?
158
00:09:21.570 --> 00:09:24.780 line:15%
He absolutely tells God
159
00:09:24.780 --> 00:09:27.090 line:15%
what he wants him to do.
160
00:09:29.670 --> 00:09:34.080
Friend, I think a lot of us,
and I've been guilty of this
161
00:09:34.080 --> 00:09:37.590
before, that we have a problem,
162
00:09:37.590 --> 00:09:41.460
but we don't pray long
enough to even tell God
163
00:09:41.460 --> 00:09:43.260
what we really want.
164
00:09:43.260 --> 00:09:45.420
We just say, pray some prayers.
165
00:09:45.420 --> 00:09:50.420
And then, but we didn't really say, God,
166
00:09:50.580 --> 00:09:53.910
I want this.
167
00:09:55.620 --> 00:09:59.190
I know lots of people that they,
168
00:09:59.190 --> 00:10:00.870
they didn't come to that place -
169
00:10:00.870 --> 00:10:04.800
I want this. You know why?
170
00:10:04.800 --> 00:10:09.800
Because we didn't spend the
time like Jehosaphat did
171
00:10:10.080 --> 00:10:13.770
in telling God who we was:
172
00:10:13.770 --> 00:10:17.250
of getting our eyes off of the problem
173
00:10:17.250 --> 00:10:20.460
and getting our eyes on the Lord.
174
00:10:21.930 --> 00:10:24.660
He's the only one who
could solve the problem.
175
00:10:26.520 --> 00:10:31.140
Do you see the deception
of the enemy to distract us
176
00:10:31.140 --> 00:10:34.500
and to get us just looking at the problem
177
00:10:34.500 --> 00:10:37.320
as if we were gonna solve the problem
178
00:10:37.320 --> 00:10:40.890
and as if looking at it
was going to change it.
179
00:10:40.890 --> 00:10:44.910
It's not gonna change it, but
one thing is gonna change it.
180
00:10:44.910 --> 00:10:49.350
Looking at the Lord and
telling him who he is
181
00:10:49.350 --> 00:10:52.380
and asking him and bringing that request
182
00:10:52.380 --> 00:10:53.490
before him,
183
00:10:56.250 --> 00:10:57.630
that's gonna change it -
184
00:10:59.370 --> 00:11:00.540
that's gonna change it.
185
00:11:01.500 --> 00:11:03.750
I always think of Blind Bartimaeus
186
00:11:03.750 --> 00:11:06.810
because it was obvious to Jesus
187
00:11:06.810 --> 00:11:09.300
that Blind Bartimaeus was blind.
188
00:11:09.300 --> 00:11:13.440
He saw him cast away his garment that gave him the right
189
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:14.550
to beg;
190
00:11:14.550 --> 00:11:16.110
he saw him cast it away.
191
00:11:16.110 --> 00:11:19.980
Jesus, the whole time was seeing Bartimaeus' faith.
192
00:11:19.980 --> 00:11:22.980
He heard Jesus screaming
out when people told him
193
00:11:22.980 --> 00:11:26.370
to be quiet - he saw it all.
194
00:11:26.370 --> 00:11:30.390
But when they brought Blind Bartimaeus to Jesus,
195
00:11:30.390 --> 00:11:34.530
Jesus said - what do you want me
196
00:11:34.530 --> 00:11:35.730
to do for you?
197
00:11:36.930 --> 00:11:39.960
That's how important friend it is for us
198
00:11:39.960 --> 00:11:43.590
to know. This is a relationship we have with God,
199
00:11:43.590 --> 00:11:44.760
not a religion.
200
00:11:45.870 --> 00:11:48.090
If you go to somebody
201
00:11:48.090 --> 00:11:53.090
and they have what you need, the most effective
202
00:11:53.380 --> 00:11:55.720
thing is to say -
203
00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:03.670
Could I have that? You have exactly what I need?
204
00:12:04.930 --> 00:12:06.160
Could I have that?
205
00:12:07.780 --> 00:12:12.520
Because us just thinking that they know
206
00:12:12.520 --> 00:12:16.420
what we need, they might
not be thinking about that.
207
00:12:16.420 --> 00:12:17.770
But when we say
208
00:12:17.770 --> 00:12:22.360
that, we give authority in our voice;
209
00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:25.000
your authority's in your voice.
210
00:12:25.000 --> 00:12:30.000
And when Blind Bartimaeus said that to Jesus, Jesus said,
211
00:12:30.100 --> 00:12:33.220
be it unto you according to your faith.
212
00:12:33.220 --> 00:12:34.360
Now when you
213
00:12:34.360 --> 00:12:38.560
and I position ourselves for that miracle
214
00:12:39.400 --> 00:12:43.120
and we seek the Lord, we set ourselves
215
00:12:43.120 --> 00:12:46.630
to seek him an attitude of determination,
216
00:12:46.630 --> 00:12:49.870
I am I'm gonna receive
what God has for me.
217
00:12:50.740 --> 00:12:55.600
Then we set ourselves to hear from God
218
00:12:55.600 --> 00:12:59.980
and we set ourselves
to say to God, this is
219
00:12:59.980 --> 00:13:01.330
what I want.
220
00:13:02.770 --> 00:13:05.320
And that's what, that's what Jehosaphat did.
221
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:07.270
And the next thing that happened
222
00:13:07.270 --> 00:13:10.480
friend, was a prophet spoke.
223
00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:11.860
And the prophet said,
224
00:13:13.750 --> 00:13:17.740
the prophet said in verse 15 of chapter 20,
225
00:13:17.740 --> 00:13:21.760 line:15%
and he said - Listen, all you are Judah
226
00:13:21.760 --> 00:13:23.740 line:15%
and you inhabitants are Jerusalem.
227
00:13:23.740 --> 00:13:28.240 line:15%
And you King Jehosaphat thus says the Lord
228
00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:32.800 line:15%
to you, do not be afraid
229
00:13:32.800 --> 00:13:34.420 line:15%
nor dismayed
230
00:13:34.420 --> 00:13:37.210 line:15%
because of this great multitude
231
00:13:37.210 --> 00:13:39.880 line:15%
for the battle is not yours
232
00:13:39.880 --> 00:13:44.320 line:15%
but God's. See all this instruction, encouragement's coming.
233
00:13:44.320 --> 00:13:48.580 line:15%
Now tomorrow, go down against them.
234
00:13:48.580 --> 00:13:51.850 line:15%
They will surely come up by the Ascent of ZiZ
235
00:13:51.850 --> 00:13:54.580 line:15%
and you will find them
at the end of the brook
236
00:13:54.580 --> 00:13:56.650 line:15%
before the Wilderness of Jeruel.
237
00:13:57.700 --> 00:14:01.540 line:15%
You will not need to fight in this battle.
238
00:14:01.540 --> 00:14:05.050 line:15%
Position yourselves, stand still
239
00:14:05.050 --> 00:14:09.580 line:15%
and see the salvation of
the Lord who is with you.
240
00:14:09.580 --> 00:14:12.790 line:15%
Oh, Judah and Jerusalem, do not fear
241
00:14:12.790 --> 00:14:15.280 line:15%
or be dismayed; tomorrow,
242
00:14:15.280 --> 00:14:20.280 line:15%
go down - go out against them
for the Lord is with you.
243
00:14:20.980 --> 00:14:25.390 line:15%
Clear instruction: sounds very impossible.
244
00:14:25.390 --> 00:14:29.440
But it was clear instruction
that they don't have
245
00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:32.020
to fight in this battle.
246
00:14:32.020 --> 00:14:34.060
And then it says in verse 18 -
247
00:14:34.060 --> 00:14:37.870 line:15%
And Jehosaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground
248
00:14:37.870 --> 00:14:42.460 line:15%
and all of Judah, and they worship the Lord.
249
00:14:42.460 --> 00:14:44.440 line:15%
Oh God is working.
250
00:14:44.440 --> 00:14:48.280
They've gone from fear to worshiping God.
251
00:14:48.280 --> 00:14:51.140 line:15%
And then the next verse says - Then the Levites
252
00:14:51.140 --> 00:14:53.720 line:15%
of the children of the Kohathites
253
00:14:53.720 --> 00:14:57.200 line:15%
and of the children of the Korahites, stood up
254
00:14:57.200 --> 00:14:58.820 line:15%
to praise the Lord.
255
00:14:58.820 --> 00:15:01.670 line:15%
So first they worshiped the Lord,
256
00:15:01.670 --> 00:15:04.520 line:15%
they surrendered their fear,
257
00:15:04.520 --> 00:15:09.520 line:15%
and now they're praising God with loud voices.
258
00:15:10.220 --> 00:15:13.430 line:15%
So now the next verse is, we don't see
259
00:15:13.430 --> 00:15:14.870
that it said they went to sleep,
260
00:15:14.870 --> 00:15:19.820 line:15%
but it does say so they
rose early in the morning.
261
00:15:20.660 --> 00:15:23.150 line:15%
So they rose up early in the morning.
262
00:15:23.150 --> 00:15:28.150
Their instruction was to
walk down to this enemy,
263
00:15:28.460 --> 00:15:33.410
many enemies, 3-times bigger than them, no weapons.
264
00:15:34.490 --> 00:15:37.490
Can you even imagine?
265
00:15:38.960 --> 00:15:42.410
As they walk down towards their enemy
266
00:15:44.900 --> 00:15:47.510
and they put the praisers in front of them
267
00:15:49.130 --> 00:15:52.400
to proclaim who he is.
268
00:15:52.400 --> 00:15:55.610
And they said - Praise the Lord for his mercy
269
00:15:55.610 --> 00:15:59.810
and for the Lord is good and
his mercy endures forever.
270
00:15:59.810 --> 00:16:01.730
We don't know how long they said it.
271
00:16:01.730 --> 00:16:06.530
We don't know how, how,
how loud they said it.
272
00:16:06.530 --> 00:16:11.090
But that was their only weapon was
273
00:16:11.090 --> 00:16:12.350
their mouth.
274
00:16:14.120 --> 00:16:19.040
They walked down to their enemy with
275
00:16:19.040 --> 00:16:21.530
their hands empty.
276
00:16:23.000 --> 00:16:27.680
They can see the enemy, they
can see their artillery,
277
00:16:27.680 --> 00:16:32.680
they can see their knives, they can see all their weapons.
278
00:16:32.750 --> 00:16:35.900
They can see that the enemy is staged
279
00:16:35.900 --> 00:16:38.180
and ready to come after them.
280
00:16:39.500 --> 00:16:43.850
And they have their
hands down and no weapons
281
00:16:44.750 --> 00:16:47.510
and they're walking towards the enemy.
282
00:16:47.510 --> 00:16:52.400
They must have looked like ducks just waddling down
283
00:16:52.400 --> 00:16:53.810
there for destruction.
284
00:16:54.920 --> 00:16:57.920
That's what it looked like.
285
00:16:57.920 --> 00:17:02.030
But what really happened is what God said.
286
00:17:02.030 --> 00:17:05.300
And the praisers said, praise the Lord
287
00:17:05.300 --> 00:17:08.180
for his mercy endures forever.
288
00:17:09.170 --> 00:17:13.700
And the Bible says, this is so amazing.
289
00:17:13.700 --> 00:17:18.470 line:15%
The Bible says, now there they
stand without any weapons,
290
00:17:18.470 --> 00:17:20.780 line:15%
only their mouth praising God -
291
00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:25.250 line:15%
Now, when they began to sing
292
00:17:25.250 --> 00:17:28.970 line:15%
and to praise, the Lord
293
00:17:28.970 --> 00:17:33.410 line:15%
set ambushes against the people of Ammon,
294
00:17:33.410 --> 00:17:35.450 line:15%
Moab and Mount Seir,
295
00:17:35.450 --> 00:17:40.190 line:15%
who had come against Judah and they were defeated.
296
00:17:42.530 --> 00:17:47.090 line:15%
And when Judah came to the place overlooking the wilderness,
297
00:17:47.090 --> 00:17:49.410 line:15%
they look toward the multitude
298
00:17:49.410 --> 00:17:54.410 line:15%
and there were their dead bodies, fallen on the earth.
299
00:17:54.720 --> 00:17:56.910 line:15%
No one had escaped.
300
00:17:58.920 --> 00:18:01.110
Can you imagine?
301
00:18:01.110 --> 00:18:04.530
And then the Bible says they went in
302
00:18:04.530 --> 00:18:06.780
and they took all the spoil.
303
00:18:06.780 --> 00:18:10.560
I'll read that to you in a
minute. But just think of it.
304
00:18:10.560 --> 00:18:15.300
Think of it friend. This is
such an impossible situation.
305
00:18:16.260 --> 00:18:20.040
But they set themselves to seek the Lord.
306
00:18:20.040 --> 00:18:23.460
They told the Lord exactly who he is.
307
00:18:24.300 --> 00:18:27.210
They encouraged themselves
in the Lord telling the
308
00:18:27.210 --> 00:18:28.890
Lord who he is.
309
00:18:28.890 --> 00:18:31.740
Then they gave their request.
310
00:18:31.740 --> 00:18:34.440
Then they heard from a prophet.
311
00:18:35.400 --> 00:18:38.820
Then they gave up their fear.
312
00:18:38.820 --> 00:18:43.200
They gave up their fear.
They believed the Lord.
313
00:18:43.200 --> 00:18:44.460
They went to sleep.
314
00:18:44.460 --> 00:18:47.280
They got up the next
morning, they went down
315
00:18:47.280 --> 00:18:49.590
to their enemy without any weapons.
316
00:18:50.640 --> 00:18:54.270
And it says in that verse, verse 22:
317
00:18:54.270 --> 00:18:58.260
the Lord set up ambushments.
318
00:18:58.260 --> 00:19:03.240
And what happened was
that there was so much,
319
00:19:03.240 --> 00:19:06.720
the Lord brought so much confusion on the enemy
320
00:19:06.720 --> 00:19:10.920
that they all attacked each other.
321
00:19:10.920 --> 00:19:13.950
Can you even - even imagine this?
322
00:19:13.950 --> 00:19:18.420
Can you imagine what Judah thought
323
00:19:18.420 --> 00:19:21.300
as the enemies cutting
off each other's head
324
00:19:21.300 --> 00:19:25.860
and stabbing each other and
blood splattering everywhere
325
00:19:25.860 --> 00:19:28.290
and all they're doing is standing there
326
00:19:28.290 --> 00:19:32.100
and all the praisers are doing is singing
327
00:19:32.100 --> 00:19:36.210
and praising the Lord while their enemy
328
00:19:36.210 --> 00:19:37.830
destroys each other.
329
00:19:37.830 --> 00:19:42.390
That is amazing. So then look what happens.
330
00:19:44.370 --> 00:19:47.730
I want you to see what they recovered.
331
00:19:48.840 --> 00:19:49.950 line:15%
When Jehosaphat
332
00:19:49.950 --> 00:19:54.950 line:15%
and his people came to take away their spoil,
333
00:19:55.200 --> 00:19:58.470 line:15%
they found among them an abundance
334
00:19:58.470 --> 00:20:01.770 line:15%
of valuables on the dead bodies
335
00:20:01.770 --> 00:20:06.090 line:15%
and precious jewelry,
which they stripped off
336
00:20:06.090 --> 00:20:11.090 line:15%
for themselves more than
they could carry away.
337
00:20:11.520 --> 00:20:14.160 line:15%
God had blessed them so much, so much,
338
00:20:14.160 --> 00:20:16.620 line:15%
they couldn't even carry it all away.
339
00:20:16.620 --> 00:20:19.800 line:15%
And they were 3-days gathering the spoil
340
00:20:19.800 --> 00:20:23.400 line:15%
because there was so much.
341
00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:28.530
Here's the devil going to, going
342
00:20:28.530 --> 00:20:31.260
to destroy them all.
343
00:20:31.260 --> 00:20:35.310
But God, in his plans, in his ways
344
00:20:35.310 --> 00:20:37.950
and leading his people into faith
345
00:20:39.150 --> 00:20:40.650 line:15%
brought that miracle.
346
00:20:40.650 --> 00:20:44.490
The enemy destroyed each
other and they went in
347
00:20:44.490 --> 00:20:47.250
and took all..the spoils.
348
00:20:48.250 --> 00:20:52.540
They recovered all. They recovered all
349
00:20:52.540 --> 00:20:56.350
and more than they could even take. Friend,
350
00:20:56.350 --> 00:21:01.090
I'm telling you, when we set ourselves
351
00:21:01.090 --> 00:21:02.860
to seek the Lord
352
00:21:02.860 --> 00:21:06.790
and we begin to magnify
the Lord for who he is,
353
00:21:07.630 --> 00:21:10.810
and then we ask him
what it is that we need,
354
00:21:12.970 --> 00:21:14.860
Heaven goes into action
355
00:21:14.860 --> 00:21:17.530
and that we keep fear out of our heart.
356
00:21:18.490 --> 00:21:21.460
They worshiped the Lord.
357
00:21:22.420 --> 00:21:24.610
I know one minister who said,
358
00:21:24.610 --> 00:21:29.320
God's people don't receive from me enough
359
00:21:29.320 --> 00:21:32.860
because they don't worship me enough.
360
00:21:33.910 --> 00:21:38.440
They don't worship me to get
a perspective of who I am.
361
00:21:38.440 --> 00:21:41.740
And their faith doesn't
get built and they don't.
362
00:21:41.740 --> 00:21:43.000
They don't get to that place
363
00:21:43.000 --> 00:21:47.920
where they can receive my
greatness and my power.
364
00:21:49.540 --> 00:21:52.990
Do you see how important it is
365
00:21:52.990 --> 00:21:57.430
that we position ourselves into that place
366
00:21:57.430 --> 00:21:59.920
and not just pray short prayers,
367
00:22:01.300 --> 00:22:03.370
but that we seek the Lord
368
00:22:03.370 --> 00:22:06.670
and we proclaim who he is - as He is mighty.
369
00:22:06.670 --> 00:22:11.470
He's a mighty God. He's
a mighty God who saves.
370
00:22:11.470 --> 00:22:14.920
He's the everlasting Father.
He's the prince of peace.
371
00:22:14.920 --> 00:22:17.140
He's the first, He's the last.
372
00:22:17.140 --> 00:22:20.440 line:15%
He deserves all of our praise.
373
00:22:20.440 --> 00:22:25.270 line:15%
And when we magnify him, we - the Bible says
374
00:22:25.270 --> 00:22:27.070 line:15%
that heaven comes.
375
00:22:27.070 --> 00:22:30.610 line:15%
He inhabits the praises of his people.
376
00:22:30.610 --> 00:22:32.020 line:15%
Well, what did he do then
377
00:22:32.020 --> 00:22:35.950 line:15%
when he inhabit those praises?
He brought deliverance.
378
00:22:35.950 --> 00:22:37.930 line:15%
He brought that miracle.
379
00:22:39.790 --> 00:22:41.950 line:15%
Oh friend, is this exciting?
380
00:22:41.950 --> 00:22:43.660 line:15%
Well, I want you to stay with me
381
00:22:43.660 --> 00:22:48.220 line:15%
'cause I'm coming right back
and we're gonna pray together.
382
00:22:48.220 --> 00:22:49.240
Have you ever struggled
383
00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:51.730 line:15%
to get back something
the enemy stole from you?
384
00:22:51.730 --> 00:22:54.790 line:15%
Maybe you never got it back
and you feel that loss?
385
00:22:54.790 --> 00:22:57.040 line:15%
Did you know you don't
have to live that way?
386
00:22:57.040 --> 00:22:59.500 line:15%
The Bible tells us that
Jesus paid the price
387
00:22:59.500 --> 00:23:01.210 line:15%
to give us recovery power
388
00:23:01.210 --> 00:23:04.150
that can reclaim everything
the enemy steals,
389
00:23:04.150 --> 00:23:05.710
kills, or destroys.

420
00:24:21.200 --> 00:24:22.200
Friend,
421
00:24:22.200 --> 00:24:23.960
isn't that magnificent?
422
00:24:23.960 --> 00:24:27.590
You know, so many times, friend, we just don't see God as
423
00:24:27.590 --> 00:24:29.120
who he really is.
424
00:24:29.120 --> 00:24:33.500
We think of him as the God
with the clinched fist.
425
00:24:33.500 --> 00:24:35.930
He's the God with the open hand.
426
00:24:35.930 --> 00:24:38.570
You can find that out in James.
427
00:24:38.570 --> 00:24:42.110
He's not trying to hold back
the answer that you needs.
428
00:24:42.110 --> 00:24:46.970
He has given up everything
to get that answer to you.
429
00:24:46.970 --> 00:24:48.590
But our minds
430
00:24:48.590 --> 00:24:52.340
and our emotions, they absolutely,
431
00:24:53.720 --> 00:24:58.130
they're not renewed to the
fact to say, I receive,
432
00:25:00.140 --> 00:25:04.910
to say I receive - and mean it
433
00:25:04.910 --> 00:25:09.050
and believe it with your
heart that on the end of that
434
00:25:09.950 --> 00:25:13.670
is you receiving. It's powerful.
435
00:25:15.200 --> 00:25:17.210 line:15%
Well, I wanna offer you my,
436
00:25:17.210 --> 00:25:19.490 line:15%
my series, 5-part video series -
437
00:25:19.490 --> 00:25:22.790
You Can Recover All. You need this
438
00:25:22.790 --> 00:25:25.760 line:15%

to help them in their situation
440
00:25:28.820 --> 00:25:31.550 line:15%
and also the companion study guide.
441
00:25:31.550 --> 00:25:34.280 line:15%
And I want you to have, Unstoppable
442
00:25:34.280 --> 00:25:36.140 line:15%
because it's going to encourage you to push
443
00:25:36.140 --> 00:25:37.730 line:15%
through the things that are trying
444
00:25:37.730 --> 00:25:41.090 line:15%
to stop you from seeking the Lord
445
00:25:41.090 --> 00:25:43.160 line:15%
and receiving from him.
446
00:25:44.960 --> 00:25:49.960 line:15%
Father, I pray right now
that we would open our
447
00:25:50.210 --> 00:25:53.990 line:15%
hearts. Lord, if we need to repent of unbelief,
448
00:25:53.990 --> 00:25:58.990 line:15%
repent of unbelief because God can deal with honesty.
449
00:25:59.180 --> 00:26:03.050 line:15%
He can't deal with an with un-honest heart;
450
00:26:03.050 --> 00:26:05.030 line:15%
but an honest heart blesses God.
451
00:26:05.030 --> 00:26:09.020 line:15%
I really don't believe God can move there.
452
00:26:09.020 --> 00:26:13.280 line:15%
If that's you, just tell him,
God, I really don't believe,
453
00:26:15.380 --> 00:26:18.440 line:15%
and you watch God come
into your situation.
454
00:26:19.370 --> 00:26:21.620 line:15%
Well, thank you for being with me
455
00:26:21.620 --> 00:26:25.070
and I'll see you on the next program.
456
00:26:26.150 --> 00:26:29.330
If you've never received Jesus as your Savior
457
00:26:29.330 --> 00:26:34.330 line:15%
and Lord, now is the time for you to experience a new life
458
00:26:34.460 --> 00:26:36.740 line:15%
Jesus has to give you.
459
00:26:36.740 --> 00:26:41.060
Pray this prayer with me right now - Lord,
460
00:26:41.060 --> 00:26:45.720
I repent of my sin and
receive you as my Savior
461
00:26:45.720 --> 00:26:49.050
and Lord. Wash away my sin
462
00:26:49.050 --> 00:26:51.660
and make me completely new.
463
00:26:51.660 --> 00:26:54.030
I thank you that my sin is removed
464
00:26:54.030 --> 00:26:59.030
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.
465
00:26:59.100 --> 00:27:04.100
I faithfully promise that
I will serve you as my Lord
466
00:27:04.140 --> 00:27:06.780
for the rest of my life.
467
00:27:06.780 --> 00:27:07.780
Amen.
468
00:27:10.950 --> 00:27:13.710
If you just prayed the
prayer of salvation with us,
469
00:27:13.710 --> 00:27:15.660
would you please let us know by going
470
00:27:15.660 --> 00:27:18.660
to renner.org/salvation?
471
00:27:18.660 --> 00:27:20.370
We would love to connect with you.
472
00:27:33.900 --> 00:27:35.820
Perhaps I have to do another test.
473
00:27:36.990 --> 00:27:39.720
The only thing to do is to wait.
474
00:27:42.780 --> 00:27:46.710
I wish things have gone another way. I wanna be healthy.
475
00:27:49.680 --> 00:27:52.980 line:15%
If there is no one to
support you, don't give up.

If two of you shall agree on
earth as touching anything
480
00:28:10.800 --> 00:28:14.970 line:15%
that they shall ask, it shall
be done for them of my father,
481
00:28:14.970 --> 00:28:15.810
which is in Heaven.
