00:00:01.200 --> 00:00:03.690 line:15%
This program is made
possible by the giving
2
00:00:03.690 --> 00:00:06.930 line:15%
of the God called partners
of Renner Ministries.
3
00:00:07.950 --> 00:00:09.690 line:15%
Hey friends, this is Rick Renner
4
00:00:09.690 --> 00:00:13.710
and I'm in the floodplain
just below the landing place
5
00:00:13.710 --> 00:00:15.480 line:15%
of Noah's Ark.
6
00:00:15.480 --> 00:00:19.800 line:15%
And I'm in a very, very ancient building which many scholars
7
00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:22.980 line:15%
and researchers believe marks the place
8
00:00:22.980 --> 00:00:27.980 line:15%
where Noah lived in the valley
when he became a husbandman.
9
00:00:28.020 --> 00:00:29.760 line:15%
Later this was turned into a church
10
00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:31.560 line:15%
to commemorate this place.
11
00:00:31.560 --> 00:00:34.260 line:15%
It dates all the way to the Armenian times
12
00:00:34.260 --> 00:00:37.710 line:15%
and perhaps even to Byzantine
times when people were able
13
00:00:37.710 --> 00:00:41.550 line:15%
to mark these locations and
it was turned into a church.
14
00:00:41.550 --> 00:00:44.730 line:15%
And not far from here is an ancient altar,
15
00:00:44.730 --> 00:00:48.870 line:15%
and the altar is marked off
with stones like a fence
16
00:00:48.870 --> 00:00:51.300 line:15%
to keep people going into that region.
17
00:00:51.300 --> 00:00:54.300 line:15%
And some people believe
that was an area where Noah
18
00:00:54.300 --> 00:00:57.540 line:15%
and his family made
additional sacrifices to God.
19
00:00:57.540 --> 00:00:59.790 line:15%
And the stones were used to keep people
20
00:00:59.790 --> 00:01:02.460 line:15%
and animals from going into that region.
21
00:01:02.460 --> 00:01:04.620 line:15%
It was like a holy mountain.
22
00:01:04.620 --> 00:01:08.340 line:15%
But my friends today were
living in dangerous times.
23
00:01:08.340 --> 00:01:11.640
Noah and his family were
living in very turbulent times
24
00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:14.850
and they were given the assignment to repopulate the earth.
25
00:01:14.850 --> 00:01:18.660
Can you imagine any assignment
more difficult than that?
26
00:01:18.660 --> 00:01:21.870
But Noah was very careful to listen to God
27
00:01:21.870 --> 00:01:24.840
and to pay heed to God's instructions.
28
00:01:24.840 --> 00:01:26.580
And likewise, if we're gonna sail
29
00:01:26.580 --> 00:01:28.980
through turbulent waters
at the end of the age
30
00:01:28.980 --> 00:01:32.790
and we are, then we have
to very carefully listen to
31
00:01:32.790 --> 00:01:35.340
what the Holy Spirit has to say to us
32
00:01:35.340 --> 00:01:39.090
and move with urgency when God speaks.
33
00:01:39.090 --> 00:01:41.550
And that is what I'm going
to talk to you about today.
34
00:01:42.450 --> 00:01:45.660 line:15%
Get ready for a teaching
that feeds your spirit
35
00:01:45.660 --> 00:01:49.230 line:15%
and your mind, where the
word is the anchor in
36
00:01:49.230 --> 00:01:51.210 line:15%
uncertain times
37
00:01:51.210 --> 00:01:54.480 line:15%
and doctrine doesn't bend to culture.
38
00:01:54.480 --> 00:01:55.920 line:15%
We keep it simple,
39
00:01:55.920 --> 00:02:00.480 line:15%
but dive deep revealing a
truth that strengthens us,
40
00:02:01.350 --> 00:02:03.270
a love that emboldens,
41
00:02:04.380 --> 00:02:06.540 line:15%
and a mission that touches the world.
42
00:02:08.910 --> 00:02:09.990 line:15%
Let's join Rick
43
00:02:09.990 --> 00:02:10.990 line:15%
Renner.
44
00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:14.760
Welcome to today's program.
My name is Rick Renner.
45
00:02:14.760 --> 00:02:17.310 line:15%
Thank you for letting
me come into your space.
46
00:02:17.310 --> 00:02:18.630 line:15%
It is a privilege
47
00:02:18.630 --> 00:02:21.360
that you would let me
speak the wonderful word
48
00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:22.830
of God to you today.
49
00:02:22.830 --> 00:02:26.220
And today I'm gonna continue my series which is called, How
50
00:02:26.220 --> 00:02:30.060 line:15%
to Float on a Sea of Destruction in the Last Days.
51
00:02:30.060 --> 00:02:32.400 line:15%
We're really living in the last days
52
00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:35.040 line:15%
and the Bible prophesies very clearly
53
00:02:35.040 --> 00:02:37.260 line:15%
that the water's gonna get pretty rough at
54
00:02:37.260 --> 00:02:38.610 line:15%
the end of the age.
55
00:02:38.610 --> 00:02:40.830 line:15%
And my friends, we need
to know how to sail
56
00:02:40.830 --> 00:02:43.080 line:15%
through the most turbulent of times.
57
00:02:43.080 --> 00:02:45.750 line:15%
People today are being swept up into all
58
00:02:45.750 --> 00:02:47.460 line:15%
kinds of destruction.
59
00:02:47.460 --> 00:02:50.670 line:15%
There's moral confusion, gender confusion.
60
00:02:50.670 --> 00:02:52.860 line:15%
There is so much confusion
in the world today.
61
00:02:52.860 --> 00:02:54.090 line:15%
People don't know what's right.
62
00:02:54.090 --> 00:02:55.800 line:15%
People don't know what's wrong.
63
00:02:55.800 --> 00:02:57.480 line:15%
It's really a fulfillment of
64
00:02:57.480 --> 00:03:00.670 line:15%
what Isaiah said in Isaiah 5:20.
65
00:03:00.670 --> 00:03:02.410 line:15%
He described a day at the end
66
00:03:02.410 --> 00:03:06.490 line:15%
of the age when people
would call light darkness
67
00:03:06.490 --> 00:03:08.770 line:15%
and they would call darkness light.
68
00:03:08.770 --> 00:03:11.620 line:15%
They would call good, bad and bad good.
69
00:03:11.620 --> 00:03:13.660 line:15%
We're really living in that time
70
00:03:13.660 --> 00:03:16.555 line:15%
and I know that you friend don't want to sink with the rest
71
00:03:16.555 --> 00:03:21.130 line:15%
of the world or your kids or your grandkids or your friends,
72
00:03:21.130 --> 00:03:25.060 line:15%
and you can Float On a Sea of Destruction just like Noah
73
00:03:25.060 --> 00:03:28.930 line:15%
and his family and the
animals floated on the water
74
00:03:28.930 --> 00:03:30.430 line:15%
during the time of the flood.
75
00:03:30.430 --> 00:03:34.090 line:15%
Think about that. The flood
destroyed everybody else, but
76
00:03:34.090 --> 00:03:37.390 line:15%
because Noah and his family heard from God
77
00:03:37.390 --> 00:03:40.270 line:15%
and did what God told them to do,
78
00:03:40.270 --> 00:03:42.940 line:15%
they floated on the same waters
79
00:03:42.940 --> 00:03:45.370 line:15%
that destroyed everything else.
80
00:03:45.370 --> 00:03:49.000 line:15%
And I cover in this series the 10 principles you need
81
00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:51.160 line:15%
to help you sell victoriously
82
00:03:51.160 --> 00:03:54.100 line:15%
through turbulent end time weather.
83
00:03:54.100 --> 00:03:56.410 line:15%
And by the way, this would be
a great gift for you to give
84
00:03:56.410 --> 00:03:58.120 line:15%
to somebody else as well.
85
00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:01.450 line:15%
And remember that it comes
with this amazing study guide
86
00:04:01.450 --> 00:04:02.920 line:15%
that is enormous
87
00:04:02.920 --> 00:04:04.180 line:15%
and it's just filled with all the
88
00:04:04.180 --> 00:04:05.500 line:15%
points, all the principles.
89
00:04:05.500 --> 00:04:07.870 line:15%
Everything in the series
is in the study guide
90
00:04:07.870 --> 00:04:09.550 line:15%
so you can read it while you're seeing
91
00:04:09.550 --> 00:04:11.350 line:15%
or hearing the series.
92
00:04:11.350 --> 00:04:13.750 line:15%
And we're also offering you right now my book
93
00:04:13.750 --> 00:04:17.050 line:15%
which is called, Last Day's Survival Guide.
94
00:04:17.050 --> 00:04:20.140 line:15%
The back of the book says -
God wants you prepared
95
00:04:20.140 --> 00:04:22.390 line:15%
for these perilous times.
96
00:04:22.390 --> 00:04:23.980 line:15%
This is a practical book.
97
00:04:23.980 --> 00:04:27.070 line:15%
And at the end of every chapter, there are action steps
98
00:04:27.070 --> 00:04:29.050 line:15%
to help you know how to respond to
99
00:04:29.050 --> 00:04:31.570 line:15%
what you have read in
every one of the chapters.
100
00:04:31.570 --> 00:04:33.760 line:15%
The forward is by my friend Perry Stone.
101
00:04:33.760 --> 00:04:37.420 line:15%
And the subtitle says - A Scriptural Handbook to prepare you
102
00:04:37.420 --> 00:04:40.120 line:15%
for these Perilous Times.
103
00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:43.210 line:15%
Please order this today

00:04:48.190 --> 00:04:50.890 line:15%
And wouldn't you reach out to
us, let us know how to pray
107
00:04:50.890 --> 00:04:52.840 line:15%
for you because we wanna pray for you
108
00:04:52.840 --> 00:04:54.940 line:15%
and we're waiting for the
phone to ring right now.
109
00:04:54.940 --> 00:04:58.420 line:15%
Just call the number on the
screen or send us an email
110
00:04:58.420 --> 00:05:00.370 line:15%
and when your email shows up
111
00:05:00.370 --> 00:05:03.520 line:15%
or when you call us, we're gonna release our faith according
112
00:05:03.520 --> 00:05:05.440 line:15%
to Jeremiah 33:3
113
00:05:05.440 --> 00:05:07.995 line:15%
which declares - Call unto me.
114
00:05:07.995 --> 00:05:10.960 line:15%
I'll hear you, I'll answer
you, and I'll show you great
115
00:05:10.960 --> 00:05:15.160 line:15%
and mighty things - and we will call out to God with you.
116
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:17.290 line:15%
You can pray by yourself, of course you can.
117
00:05:17.290 --> 00:05:21.370 line:15%
You're a child of God, but
there's agreement in prayer.
118
00:05:21.370 --> 00:05:24.640 line:15%
And if you'll call out to us,
get into agreement with us,
119
00:05:24.640 --> 00:05:25.720 line:15%
we'll get into agreement with you.
120
00:05:25.720 --> 00:05:27.130 line:15%
We'll call out to God in faith.
121
00:05:27.130 --> 00:05:29.530 line:15%
God will hear us and God will move
122
00:05:29.530 --> 00:05:33.730 line:15%
and do something simply
spectacular on your behalf.
123
00:05:33.730 --> 00:05:36.160 line:15%
He really will. But
124
00:05:36.160 --> 00:05:38.500 line:15%
before I today get into
the teaching, I want
125
00:05:38.500 --> 00:05:40.390 line:15%
to tell you about a part of our ministry
126
00:05:40.390 --> 00:05:42.040 line:15%
that you don't know about.
127
00:05:42.040 --> 00:05:44.290
We have one particular
part of our ministry
128
00:05:44.290 --> 00:05:46.930
that is connected to our online church.
129
00:05:46.930 --> 00:05:50.710
Our online church is an online
Russian speaking church.
130
00:05:50.710 --> 00:05:52.660 line:15%
It is a full fledged church.
131
00:05:52.660 --> 00:05:56.140 line:15%
It has youth ministry, Sunday
School, women's ministry,
132
00:05:56.140 --> 00:05:57.470 line:15%
men's ministry,
133
00:05:57.470 --> 00:06:01.520 line:15%
and we have over 230,000 members
134
00:06:01.520 --> 00:06:02.900 line:15%
of our online church.
135
00:06:02.900 --> 00:06:07.460 line:15%
And as part of our online
church, we produce films
136
00:06:07.460 --> 00:06:09.020 line:15%
to reach the unsaved.
137
00:06:09.020 --> 00:06:13.670 line:15%
For example, we recently
made a film called The Judge,
138
00:06:13.670 --> 00:06:16.550 line:15%
and it is about a man who dies
139
00:06:16.550 --> 00:06:20.120 line:15%
and finds himself seated in a
courtroom where he has tried
140
00:06:20.120 --> 00:06:22.190 line:15%
for his sin.
141
00:06:22.190 --> 00:06:24.800 line:15%
The movie is absolutely riveting.
142
00:06:24.800 --> 00:06:29.060 line:15%
When I saw what our team
produced, it simply stunned me
143
00:06:29.060 --> 00:06:32.270 line:15%
because of the level of
excellence and professionalism
144
00:06:32.270 --> 00:06:35.630 line:15%
and people are watching that film clip
145
00:06:35.630 --> 00:06:37.970 line:15%
because it just catches their attention.
146
00:06:37.970 --> 00:06:40.400 line:15%
Here is a man who died in his sin.
147
00:06:40.400 --> 00:06:43.670 line:15%
Now he's seated in a courtroom
where he's being judged
148
00:06:43.670 --> 00:06:47.390 line:15%
for his sin and the evidence
is stacked against him.
149
00:06:47.390 --> 00:06:49.940 line:15%
But someone steps forward to say, Hey,
150
00:06:49.940 --> 00:06:51.950 line:15%
the price has been paid
151
00:06:51.950 --> 00:06:55.310 line:15%
and this person is
Jesus who begins to say,
152
00:06:55.310 --> 00:06:57.710 line:15%
this man actually knows me and
153
00:06:57.710 --> 00:07:01.100 line:15%
therefore none of the evidence
can stand against him.
154
00:07:01.100 --> 00:07:02.810 line:15%
It is just riveting.
155
00:07:02.810 --> 00:07:04.160 line:15%
And because of that
156
00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:07.070
and other films which we
have produced like that,
157
00:07:07.070 --> 00:07:10.760
we're flooding the internet,
touching the unsaved world
158
00:07:10.760 --> 00:07:12.440
with great results.
159
00:07:12.440 --> 00:07:15.080
And the reason we're able to do this is
160
00:07:15.080 --> 00:07:16.850
because of our partners.
161
00:07:16.850 --> 00:07:19.550 line:15%
Our partners gifts really enable us
162
00:07:19.550 --> 00:07:21.890 line:15%
to do this work of ministry.
163
00:07:21.890 --> 00:07:24.650 line:15%
And today, if you're a partner, I'm saying from my heart,
164
00:07:24.650 --> 00:07:27.890 line:15%
"thank you - thank you - thank you" for being a partner.
165
00:07:27.890 --> 00:07:31.670 line:15%
We cannot do what we do if
you don't do what you do.
166
00:07:31.670 --> 00:07:34.790 line:15%
That's why the Bible says one plants another waters,
167
00:07:34.790 --> 00:07:36.500 line:15%
God gives the increase.
168
00:07:36.500 --> 00:07:39.140 line:15%
God gets all the glory but if there's nothing for him
169
00:07:39.140 --> 00:07:42.380 line:15%
to increase, if somebody didn't plant and water.
170
00:07:42.380 --> 00:07:44.000 line:15%
We all do our parts.
171
00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:46.280 line:15%
And I wanna say thank you Partner for the part
172
00:07:46.280 --> 00:07:50.300 line:15%
that you play in helping us
obey the Great Commission.
173
00:07:50.300 --> 00:07:51.830 line:15%
And if you're not already a partner,
174
00:07:51.830 --> 00:07:55.490 line:15%
please pray about becoming
a partner with our ministry.
175
00:07:55.490 --> 00:07:58.340 line:15%
You can become a partner
right now by going online
176
00:07:58.340 --> 00:07:59.780 line:15%
or by giving us a call.
177
00:07:59.780 --> 00:08:01.760 line:15%
And we'll welcome you
into our Partner Family
178
00:08:01.760 --> 00:08:04.310 line:15%
and send you two books as
our way of saying Welcome
179
00:08:04.310 --> 00:08:07.400 line:15%
to the Family: my book called Life in the Combat Zone,
180
00:08:07.400 --> 00:08:09.740 line:15%
and my wife's book called, The Gift of Forgiveness
181
00:08:09.740 --> 00:08:12.830 line:15%
because we always give these 2-books to anyone
182
00:08:12.830 --> 00:08:16.610 line:15%
who becomes a part of our Partner Family -
183
00:08:16.610 --> 00:08:17.660 line:15%
but reach for your Bible.
184
00:08:17.660 --> 00:08:20.300 line:15%
And today we're going to continue the series - How
185
00:08:20.300 --> 00:08:23.510 line:15%
To Float On a Sea of Destruction in the Last Days.
186
00:08:23.510 --> 00:08:26.990 line:15%
And today we're going to
see that you've gotta act
187
00:08:26.990 --> 00:08:30.860 line:15%
with fearlessness when you have received God's
188
00:08:30.860 --> 00:08:34.070 line:15%
instructions. So reach for your Bible,
189
00:08:34.070 --> 00:08:36.380 line:15%
and remember that I went with my team
190
00:08:36.380 --> 00:08:38.600 line:15%
to the eastern mountains of Turkey
191
00:08:38.600 --> 00:08:41.480
where we visited the ship
shape formation on the lower
192
00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:44.870 line:15%
Mountains of Ararat on a mountain called Mount Judi.
193
00:08:44.870 --> 00:08:46.880 line:15%
And as you go down into the valley below,
194
00:08:48.260 --> 00:08:51.320 line:15%
there are the ruins of an
ancient, ancient Armenian
195
00:08:51.320 --> 00:08:56.010
and Byzantine church which dates to about 500 AD.
196
00:08:56.010 --> 00:08:57.690
That is really old.
197
00:08:57.690 --> 00:09:00.510
And the Byzantines built that church in that location
198
00:09:00.510 --> 00:09:03.300
because they said below it were the ruins
199
00:09:03.300 --> 00:09:08.010
of Noah's house in the valley
where he became a vine dresser
200
00:09:08.010 --> 00:09:09.120
and had a big vineyard.
201
00:09:09.120 --> 00:09:12.060
You can read about that
in the book of Genesis.
202
00:09:12.060 --> 00:09:14.580
And they commemorated
that place as the place
203
00:09:14.580 --> 00:09:16.290
where Noah lived with his family.
204
00:09:16.290 --> 00:09:18.420
I've been there, I've visited the site,
205
00:09:18.420 --> 00:09:20.130
I've been all over it, my friends,
206
00:09:20.130 --> 00:09:22.200
these things are really true.
207
00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:26.580
But the reason I went to the Mountains of Ararat was
208
00:09:26.580 --> 00:09:29.730
to teach a series called Fallen Angels, Giants, Monsters,
209
00:09:29.730 --> 00:09:31.410 line:15%
and the World Before the Flood.
210
00:09:31.410 --> 00:09:33.930
If you didn't get that
series, please order it.
211
00:09:33.930 --> 00:09:37.410
But I'm also teaching this
series how to Float on a Sea
212
00:09:37.410 --> 00:09:39.870
of Destruction in the Last Days.
213
00:09:39.870 --> 00:09:43.710
Well, when Noah was alive, there was a lot naturally for him
214
00:09:43.710 --> 00:09:45.750
to be afraid of.
215
00:09:45.750 --> 00:09:48.060
You say - Well, what was there for Noah to be afraid of?
216
00:09:48.060 --> 00:09:50.280
Well, the world was filled with giants.
217
00:09:50.280 --> 00:09:51.930
Giants were in the world,
218
00:09:51.930 --> 00:09:55.230 line:15%
and we know from early
history they were cannibals.
219
00:09:55.230 --> 00:09:57.840 line:15%
They began to eat human beings
when they ran out of food.
220
00:09:57.840 --> 00:10:00.150 line:15%
And then when they stopped
eating human beings,
221
00:10:00.150 --> 00:10:01.980 line:15%
the giants began to turn on each other
222
00:10:01.980 --> 00:10:03.630 line:15%
and they began to eat each other.
223
00:10:03.630 --> 00:10:06.150 line:15%
This is why whenever
Noah came off the ark,
224
00:10:06.150 --> 00:10:08.430 line:15%
the first log God gave to man was
225
00:10:08.430 --> 00:10:10.470 line:15%
that man was not to eat blood.
226
00:10:10.470 --> 00:10:13.590 line:15%
Let's not go back to what the
giants did before the flood.
227
00:10:13.590 --> 00:10:16.980 line:15%
It was a barbaric world
filled with violence
228
00:10:16.980 --> 00:10:21.120 line:15%
before the flood. Angels were coming down,
229
00:10:21.120 --> 00:10:24.660 line:15%
fallen angels sexually cohabitating with women.
230
00:10:24.660 --> 00:10:26.970 line:15%
They were giving birth to these giants.
231
00:10:26.970 --> 00:10:29.790 line:15%
There were monsters in the world at that time.
232
00:10:29.790 --> 00:10:32.160 line:15%
There was a lot to be afraid of.
233
00:10:32.160 --> 00:10:36.150 line:15%
And not only that, but God said to Noah, A flood is coming.
234
00:10:36.150 --> 00:10:37.410 line:15%
No one had ever seen the flood,
235
00:10:37.410 --> 00:10:40.020 line:15%
but it sounded pretty scary naturally.
236
00:10:40.020 --> 00:10:42.690 line:15%
And Noah had to deal with what he heard.
237
00:10:42.690 --> 00:10:46.650 line:15%
And if Noah just looked at the giants,
238
00:10:46.650 --> 00:10:49.050 line:15%
saw this interaction with fallen angels
239
00:10:49.050 --> 00:10:52.020 line:15%
and women all around them,
monsters in the world,
240
00:10:52.020 --> 00:10:55.740 line:15%
and news about a catastrophic
future flood that was coming,
241
00:10:55.740 --> 00:10:59.340 line:15%
and he had a task to build a big boat
242
00:10:59.340 --> 00:11:02.190
with the world's opinion against him.
243
00:11:02.190 --> 00:11:06.930
There was so much naturally that Noah could have been afraid
244
00:11:06.930 --> 00:11:09.750
of, but fear paralyzes you.
245
00:11:09.750 --> 00:11:13.830
It incapacitates you so that
you cannot move forward.
246
00:11:13.830 --> 00:11:18.450
But when we come to 2 Timothy 1:
247
00:11:18.450 --> 00:11:20.250 line:15%
7, the Bible says -
248
00:11:20.250 --> 00:11:24.870 line:15%
God has not given you a spirit of fear,
249
00:11:24.870 --> 00:11:29.870 line:15%
but of power and of love
and of a sound mind.
250
00:11:30.030 --> 00:11:31.110 line:15%
Well, think about it: here, you
251
00:11:31.110 --> 00:11:33.720
and me, we're living in the end of the age.
252
00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:36.150
This really is the end of the age.
253
00:11:36.150 --> 00:11:38.640
And according to the prophecies of the Bible, it's going
254
00:11:38.640 --> 00:11:39.750
to get pretty bizarre
255
00:11:39.750 --> 00:11:43.140
before we get all the way to
the rapture of the church.
256
00:11:43.140 --> 00:11:45.060
But if we're alive now,
it means we've been chosen
257
00:11:45.060 --> 00:11:47.460
for this time and we've
not just been chosen
258
00:11:47.460 --> 00:11:50.550 line:15%
we are anointed for this time. We can do it.
259
00:11:50.550 --> 00:11:54.040
And we do not need to have a spirit of fear.
260
00:11:54.040 --> 00:11:55.420
We don't need to have that.
261
00:11:55.420 --> 00:11:59.620
We need to put fear aside and
fearlessly face the future
262
00:11:59.620 --> 00:12:02.380
and fearlessly do what God has called us
263
00:12:02.380 --> 00:12:04.450
to do like Noah did.
264
00:12:04.450 --> 00:12:07.360
But let's look at this verse, 2 Timothy 1:
265
00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:10.810 line:15%
7 - For God hath not given us the spirit of fear.
266
00:12:10.810 --> 00:12:12.910 line:15%
In Greek, the word not is emphatic.
267
00:12:12.910 --> 00:12:16.420 line:15%
God categorically, has not given
268
00:12:16.420 --> 00:12:18.310 line:15%
us the spirit of fear.
269
00:12:18.310 --> 00:12:21.010 line:15%
The word given, is a form of the Greek word didomi,
270
00:12:21.010 --> 00:12:24.490 line:15%
which means to give, to hand over, to passover, to transmit,
271
00:12:24.490 --> 00:12:27.130 line:15%
to transfer, which means a spirit
272
00:12:27.130 --> 00:12:31.690 line:15%
of fear has never been given
or transferred to us by God.
273
00:12:31.690 --> 00:12:36.690 line:15%
God has categorically not ever given to us
274
00:12:37.420 --> 00:12:41.800 line:15%
a spirit of fear - a spirit of fear.
275
00:12:41.800 --> 00:12:43.390 line:15%
In Greek, it is the word, pneuma
276
00:12:43.390 --> 00:12:47.710 line:15%
and the word deilia. The word pneuma, is the word for spirit
277
00:12:47.710 --> 00:12:50.170 line:15%
and it can also depict an attitude.
278
00:12:50.170 --> 00:12:52.900 line:15%
The word, deilia, depicts cowardice
279
00:12:52.900 --> 00:12:55.660 line:15%
or timidity. As a phrase,
280
00:12:55.660 --> 00:12:59.290 line:15%
it depicts an attitude or a spirit of cowardice
281
00:12:59.290 --> 00:13:00.760 line:15%
or timidity.
282
00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:03.730
And when you have a spirit of fear,
283
00:13:03.730 --> 00:13:05.385
it literally paralyzes you.
284
00:13:05.385 --> 00:13:08.140
It incapacitates you.
285
00:13:08.140 --> 00:13:10.150
You're afraid to move,
you're afraid to function.
286
00:13:10.150 --> 00:13:12.280
In fact, usually when you
have a spirit of fear,
287
00:13:12.280 --> 00:13:13.540
rather than move forward
288
00:13:13.540 --> 00:13:17.380
and take new territory, you
move into a mode of retreat
289
00:13:17.380 --> 00:13:19.120
and self preservation.
290
00:13:19.120 --> 00:13:21.370
You're thinking about
how to protect yourself
291
00:13:21.370 --> 00:13:24.460
because you're controlled
by a spirit of fear.
292
00:13:24.460 --> 00:13:28.870
And notice that the apostle Paul calls it a spirit of fear.
293
00:13:28.870 --> 00:13:32.530
That's because fear really is a spirit.
294
00:13:32.530 --> 00:13:35.980
Have you ever been in a place
or maybe watching a movie
295
00:13:35.980 --> 00:13:40.030
and suddenly something fearful
was depicted on the screen
296
00:13:40.030 --> 00:13:41.800
and you felt something fearful come
297
00:13:41.800 --> 00:13:43.390 line:15%
into the room where you were?
298
00:13:43.390 --> 00:13:44.830
Or maybe you've been in a situation
299
00:13:44.830 --> 00:13:47.650
where suddenly you felt fear come.
300
00:13:47.650 --> 00:13:51.340
That's because fear really is a spirit
301
00:13:51.340 --> 00:13:53.590
and you've gotta resist fear just like you would
302
00:13:53.590 --> 00:13:55.000
resist any devil.
303
00:13:55.000 --> 00:13:57.640
You've gotta tell it to go in Jesus' name.
304
00:13:57.640 --> 00:14:01.210
And if you yield to a spirit of fear, my friends,
305
00:14:01.210 --> 00:14:02.440
you will never be able to do what
306
00:14:02.440 --> 00:14:04.330
God's calling you to do.
307
00:14:04.330 --> 00:14:07.540
If you yield to a spirit
of fear, you'll fear things
308
00:14:07.540 --> 00:14:10.000
that will never happen in a million years,
309
00:14:10.000 --> 00:14:12.670
but you'll worry about it,
wonder if it could happen.
310
00:14:12.670 --> 00:14:15.880
All the ifs will incapacitate you.
311
00:14:15.880 --> 00:14:19.000
You'll move into a mode of
retreat and self preservation
312
00:14:19.000 --> 00:14:21.760
and protection while the world goes to hell
313
00:14:21.760 --> 00:14:25.780
and while the task that you've been given is unfulfilled
314
00:14:25.780 --> 00:14:29.560
because a spirit of fear is incapacitating you. Noah had
315
00:14:29.560 --> 00:14:32.230
that opportunity. He had to put up with
316
00:14:32.230 --> 00:14:34.210
and resist a spirit of fear.
317
00:14:34.210 --> 00:14:37.540
And God, this verse says, has not given
318
00:14:37.540 --> 00:14:41.890
to you a spirit of fear,
which would make you a coward
319
00:14:41.890 --> 00:14:44.500
or fill you with timidity.
320
00:14:44.500 --> 00:14:46.060
But what did God give you?
321
00:14:46.060 --> 00:14:48.730
Well, the verse goes on to say - but: and the word -
322
00:14:48.730 --> 00:14:51.770 line:15%
but, in Greek is the word alla, which would be translated,
323
00:14:51.770 --> 00:14:54.830 line:15%
But on the contrary, all the way to the other end
324
00:14:54.830 --> 00:14:59.090 line:15%
of the spectrum, God has given you power
325
00:14:59.090 --> 00:15:02.510 line:15%
and love and a sound mind.
326
00:15:02.510 --> 00:15:06.140 line:15%
Wow. The word power is the word, dunamis,
327
00:15:06.140 --> 00:15:10.940 line:15%
which depicts explosive super human power that comes
328
00:15:10.940 --> 00:15:15.680 line:15%
with enormous energy and produces phenomenal, extraordinary
329
00:15:15.680 --> 00:15:18.800 line:15%
and unparalleled results.
330
00:15:18.800 --> 00:15:22.160 line:15%
That word power, the Greek word dunamis, is the word used in
331
00:15:22.160 --> 00:15:24.980 line:15%
the New Testament to depict mighty deeds
332
00:15:24.980 --> 00:15:27.260 line:15%
that are impressive, incomparable,
333
00:15:27.260 --> 00:15:29.600 line:15%
and beyond human ability to perform.
334
00:15:29.600 --> 00:15:31.280 line:15%
That's what God has given you.
335
00:15:31.280 --> 00:15:35.600 line:15%
And it was used to depict the
full effects of an earthquake
336
00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:37.430 line:15%
or hurricane or a tornado.
337
00:15:37.430 --> 00:15:40.490 line:15%
And it is the same word used by the Greeks
338
00:15:40.490 --> 00:15:42.500 line:15%
and the Romans to describe the full might
339
00:15:42.500 --> 00:15:44.090 line:15%
of an advancing army.
340
00:15:44.090 --> 00:15:45.680 line:15%
That's what God has given you.
341
00:15:45.680 --> 00:15:47.270 line:15%
God's given you dunamis;
342
00:15:47.270 --> 00:15:51.080 line:15%
you have power in you like an
earthquake to shake things up.
343
00:15:51.080 --> 00:15:53.000
You have power in you like a hurricane
344
00:15:53.000 --> 00:15:55.010
to blow things out of the way.
345
00:15:55.010 --> 00:15:58.070
You have power in you like
a tornado to raise things
346
00:15:58.070 --> 00:15:59.270
that get in your way.
347
00:15:59.270 --> 00:16:01.790
And you have within you
the full might of an army
348
00:16:01.790 --> 00:16:02.840
to advance.
349
00:16:03.710 --> 00:16:06.740 line:15%
But a spirit of fear
will put you in retreat.
350
00:16:06.740 --> 00:16:09.170
So you've got to decide what
you're going to embrace.
351
00:16:09.170 --> 00:16:11.420
And rather than embrace fear, you've got
352
00:16:11.420 --> 00:16:14.600
to embrace the greater one
that's on the inside of you.
353
00:16:14.600 --> 00:16:16.550
But not only have you been given power,
354
00:16:16.550 --> 00:16:18.350
you've been given love.
355
00:16:18.350 --> 00:16:20.540
Love is important because sometimes when you're doing the
356
00:16:20.540 --> 00:16:23.030
will of God, you get into situations
357
00:16:23.030 --> 00:16:24.590 line:15%
where other people hurt your feelings
358
00:16:24.590 --> 00:16:27.230
or other people disappoint you.
359
00:16:27.230 --> 00:16:30.500
And you can become incapacitated by hurt.
360
00:16:30.500 --> 00:16:32.750
But God's given you divine love.
361
00:16:32.750 --> 00:16:35.060 line:15%
And in fact, this word love, is the Greek word agape,
362
00:16:35.060 --> 00:16:39.470 line:15%
which depicts: a divine love that gives and gives and gives
363
00:16:39.470 --> 00:16:42.410 line:15%
and gives even if it's never responded to, thanked
364
00:16:42.410 --> 00:16:44.450 line:15%
or acknowledged.
365
00:16:44.450 --> 00:16:46.310 line:15%
That's what God has given you, the ability
366
00:16:46.310 --> 00:16:48.800 line:15%
to overcome any disappointment.
367
00:16:48.800 --> 00:16:53.150 line:15%
And this verse says, God
has given you a sound mind.
368
00:16:53.150 --> 00:16:56.810 line:15%
And I love this Greek word the word, sophronismos.
369
00:16:56.810 --> 00:17:00.680 line:15%
It's a compound of 2 Greek words. The 1st word is sodzo.
370
00:17:00.680 --> 00:17:02.870 line:15%
The 2nd word is phren.
371
00:17:02.870 --> 00:17:07.370 line:15%
The word sodzo, denotes deliverance, healing,
372
00:17:07.370 --> 00:17:11.120 line:15%
prosperity, safety, soundness and wellbeing.
373
00:17:11.120 --> 00:17:13.280 line:15%
The 2nd part of the word comes from the Greek word
374
00:17:13.280 --> 00:17:16.940 line:15%
phren, which describes the intelligence or the mind.
375
00:17:16.940 --> 00:17:19.790 line:15%
It's where the old science called phenology comes from, the
376
00:17:19.790 --> 00:17:23.150 line:15%
Greek word phren. And it pictures the mind or the intellect.
377
00:17:23.150 --> 00:17:24.710 line:15%
But when you compound the two words together,
378
00:17:24.710 --> 00:17:27.050 line:15%
sodzo and friend, here it is the word,
379
00:17:27.050 --> 00:17:31.400 line:15%
sophronismos, which means to be
380
00:17:31.400 --> 00:17:35.210 line:15%
of sound mind, to be reasonable, to be balanced,
381
00:17:35.210 --> 00:17:37.700 line:15%
to be levelheaded in the way that one thinks,
382
00:17:37.700 --> 00:17:40.130 line:15%
to think clearly, to think rationally.
383
00:17:40.130 --> 00:17:44.240 line:15%
And it depicts a mind that
has been delivered, a mind
384
00:17:44.240 --> 00:17:47.990 line:15%
that has been rescued, a mind
that's been revived, a mind
385
00:17:47.990 --> 00:17:50.730 line:15%
that's been salvaged, a
mind that is protected,
386
00:17:50.730 --> 00:17:54.330 line:15%
and which is now safe and secure.
387
00:17:54.330 --> 00:17:56.430
And this verse says, that's the kind
388
00:17:56.430 --> 00:17:57.870
of mind that God gave you.
389
00:17:57.870 --> 00:18:00.930
It is the opposite of irrationality.
390
00:18:00.930 --> 00:18:03.330
When you have a spirit of fear, you become irrational.
391
00:18:03.330 --> 00:18:06.000
You begin to imagine things happening that will never happen
392
00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:08.670
to you, but the possibility of them seem so real
393
00:18:08.670 --> 00:18:11.250
because you're being controlled by a spirit of fear.
394
00:18:11.250 --> 00:18:14.220
But my friends, when
you have a sound mind,
395
00:18:14.220 --> 00:18:17.460
you think clearly and
you think rationally.
396
00:18:17.460 --> 00:18:20.940
Well again, Noah had to deal with fallen angels.
397
00:18:21.870 --> 00:18:24.390
He had to deal with giants, a human race
398
00:18:24.390 --> 00:18:25.860
that was completely corrupted.
399
00:18:25.860 --> 00:18:27.390
He had to deal with monsters
400
00:18:27.390 --> 00:18:30.660
and negative voices, a
prophetic announcement
401
00:18:30.660 --> 00:18:33.510
that the world was going
to be destroyed by a flood:
402
00:18:33.510 --> 00:18:35.790
that he was to build an Ark. He had
403
00:18:35.790 --> 00:18:37.710
to find the resources to do the job.
404
00:18:37.710 --> 00:18:39.180
He could have worried about that.
405
00:18:39.180 --> 00:18:41.340
He had to collect two animals of every kind
406
00:18:41.340 --> 00:18:44.670
and put them in his backyard, including dangerous animals.
407
00:18:44.670 --> 00:18:46.380
And naturally, Noah
408
00:18:46.380 --> 00:18:49.860 line:15%
and his family would have every reason to fear,
409
00:18:49.860 --> 00:18:51.900 line:15%
but they did not fear.
410
00:18:51.900 --> 00:18:55.680 line:15%
Instead, they fearlessly tackled the assignment
411
00:18:55.680 --> 00:18:58.260 line:15%
that God gave them to do.
412
00:18:58.260 --> 00:19:02.370 line:15%
Wow! You know, in Joshua 1, God spoke to Joshua
413
00:19:02.370 --> 00:19:06.720
and 3-times said to Joshua: be strong and courageous:
414
00:19:06.720 --> 00:19:08.550
be strong and very courageous.
415
00:19:08.550 --> 00:19:11.400
And again, be strong and courageous.
416
00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:13.410
God knew that Joshua needed to be strong,
417
00:19:13.410 --> 00:19:14.730
he needed to be courageous.
418
00:19:14.730 --> 00:19:17.280
And then when Joshua finally
stood in front of the people,
419
00:19:17.280 --> 00:19:18.900
you know what the people said -
420
00:19:18.900 --> 00:19:20.580
Joshua, we'll do anything you said to do.
421
00:19:20.580 --> 00:19:23.130
And if anybody gives you a problem, we'll kill them.
422
00:19:23.130 --> 00:19:24.360
Well, what obedience?
423
00:19:24.360 --> 00:19:25.950
And then they finally added,
424
00:19:25.950 --> 00:19:27.840
we just have one request of you.
425
00:19:27.840 --> 00:19:30.240
Be strong and have a good courage.
426
00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:33.660
God said to him 3-times: be strong and courageous.
427
00:19:33.660 --> 00:19:36.570
The people repeated what God said - be strong
428
00:19:36.570 --> 00:19:37.680
and be courageous.
429
00:19:37.680 --> 00:19:40.170
You know why? Because for you
to do what God's called you
430
00:19:40.170 --> 00:19:42.810
to do, fearlessly, you've gotta be strong
431
00:19:42.810 --> 00:19:45.240
and you've got to be courageous.
432
00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:48.420
Well, the good news is God's not given you a spirit of fear,
433
00:19:48.420 --> 00:19:50.160
but power, love and a sound of mind,
434
00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:53.310
which means you have everything you need to do anything
435
00:19:53.310 --> 00:19:55.080
that God has called you to do.
436
00:19:55.080 --> 00:19:58.800 line:15%
And in Genesis 7:17, the Bible says -
437
00:19:58.800 --> 00:20:02.070 line:15%
And the flood was 40 days upon the earth
438
00:20:02.070 --> 00:20:04.020 line:15%
and the waters increased and bare up the Ark
439
00:20:04.020 --> 00:20:05.910 line:15%
and it was lifted up above the earth.
440
00:20:05.910 --> 00:20:09.150 line:15%
And in the ark was Noah
and his family safe
441
00:20:09.150 --> 00:20:11.520
because they had fearlessly obeyed.
442
00:20:12.630 --> 00:20:15.270
And my friends, for you to float on a sea
443
00:20:15.270 --> 00:20:17.070
of destruction in the end of the age,
444
00:20:17.070 --> 00:20:19.380
you've gotta resist a spirit of fear
445
00:20:19.380 --> 00:20:24.030
and choose to fearlessly obey
the instructions which the
446
00:20:24.030 --> 00:20:26.490
Holy Spirit has given to you.
447
00:20:26.490 --> 00:20:28.860
I'll be back in just a moment
and I'm going to pray for you.
448
00:20:37.275 --> 00:20:38.370
Hey, this is Rick Renner
449
00:20:38.370 --> 00:20:41.280
and somebody has asked a
really important question.
450
00:20:41.280 --> 00:20:44.850 line:15%
Here it is - What if I'm praying very sincerely
451
00:20:44.850 --> 00:20:47.140 line:15%
but my prayers are not answered?
452
00:20:47.140 --> 00:20:51.040
What's wrong? Well, it may be
that you're praying sincerely,
453
00:20:51.040 --> 00:20:52.900
but you're praying incorrectly.
454
00:20:52.900 --> 00:20:55.840 line:15%
The Bible tells us very clearly in 1 John 5:
455
00:20:55.840 --> 00:20:59.680 line:15%
14, that if we pray anything according to his will,
456
00:20:59.680 --> 00:21:01.090 line:15%
that means according to His word
457
00:21:01.090 --> 00:21:04.480 line:15%
or according to scripture, he hears us.
458
00:21:04.480 --> 00:21:07.060
God doesn't hear us
because of our much asking.
459
00:21:07.060 --> 00:21:09.610
He doesn't even hear us
because of our sincerity.
460
00:21:09.610 --> 00:21:12.310
God is listening for his word.
461
00:21:12.310 --> 00:21:15.310
And God wants to know if
you're praying scripturally,
462
00:21:15.310 --> 00:21:16.870
if you're praying in agreement with
463
00:21:16.870 --> 00:21:19.120
what he has written in the Bible.
464
00:21:19.120 --> 00:21:22.825
And many people pray sincerely, but they pray incorrectly.
465
00:21:22.825 --> 00:21:25.300
And it's very important if you want your prayers
466
00:21:25.300 --> 00:21:28.780
to be answered, that you pray according to his will.
467
00:21:28.780 --> 00:21:31.390
And 1 John 5:14
468
00:21:31.390 --> 00:21:35.260
and 15 says - If we pray anything according to his will,
469
00:21:35.260 --> 00:21:39.190
he hears us and we will have the petitions which we have
470
00:21:39.190 --> 00:21:40.810
requested of him.
471
00:21:40.810 --> 00:21:43.510 line:15%
It seems we are surrounded
by the swirling currents
472
00:21:43.510 --> 00:21:46.660 line:15%
of destruction in a world
that has gone astray.
473
00:21:46.660 --> 00:21:49.960 line:15%
Many feel besieged by
these tempestuous times
474
00:21:49.960 --> 00:21:52.060 line:15%
and worry about their loved ones, praying
475
00:21:52.060 --> 00:21:55.270
that they will somehow
survive the fluctuating tides.
476
00:21:55.270 --> 00:21:58.630
Noah and his family faced
insurmountable challenges,
477
00:21:58.630 --> 00:22:01.360 line:15%
but God showed Noah
concrete steps to ensure he
478
00:22:01.360 --> 00:22:03.910
and his family could
rise above the confusion
479
00:22:03.910 --> 00:22:06.940
and float on a raging sea of destruction.
480
00:22:06.940 --> 00:22:08.950 line:15%
In this series, How to Float On a Sea
481
00:22:08.950 --> 00:22:10.840 line:15%
of Destruction In the Last Days,
482
00:22:10.840 --> 00:22:13.780 line:15%
Rick Renner takes you deep into the specific instruction God
483
00:22:13.780 --> 00:22:15.160 line:15%
gave Noah and shows
484
00:22:15.160 --> 00:22:18.700 line:15%
how those same instructions are needed again now to survive
485
00:22:18.700 --> 00:22:20.860 line:15%
and thrive in a world gone mad.
486
00:22:20.860 --> 00:22:23.290 line:15%
In this 10 part series, Rick covers - How
487
00:22:23.290 --> 00:22:24.790 line:15%
to be sure you are sealed tight
488
00:22:24.790 --> 00:22:28.180 line:15%
and safe: How to stay steady in turbulent times: How
489
00:22:28.180 --> 00:22:31.510 line:15%
to get God's personal instructions for you: How to act
490
00:22:31.510 --> 00:22:33.790 line:15%

This is Rick Renner, and
today I'm in the Tulsa office
508
00:23:16.810 --> 00:23:20.110
and this is another part
of our new TV studio.
509
00:23:20.110 --> 00:23:22.930 line:15%
This is where Denise
is filming TV programs
510
00:23:22.930 --> 00:23:26.290
and how wonderful that now we
have two little studios, one
511
00:23:26.290 --> 00:23:30.430 line:15%
for her and one for me where
we can interview guests
512
00:23:30.430 --> 00:23:31.900 line:15%
who can't come all the way to Russia
513
00:23:31.900 --> 00:23:33.850 line:15%
to be interviewed in our studio there.
514
00:23:33.850 --> 00:23:35.770 line:15%
So when we're in the United States,
515
00:23:35.770 --> 00:23:37.510 line:15%
we can interview them here.
516
00:23:37.510 --> 00:23:40.120 line:15%
And that's what we've been doing all week
517
00:23:40.120 --> 00:23:43.480
in this wonderful facility, which God gave us
518
00:23:43.480 --> 00:23:45.110
in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
519
00:23:45.110 --> 00:23:47.420
So grateful for this building.
520
00:23:47.420 --> 00:23:49.040 line:15%
It was really a gift from the Lord.
521
00:23:49.040 --> 00:23:51.110
And it's almost paid for.
522
00:23:51.110 --> 00:23:55.790 line:15%
We've already retired 86% of the debt.
523
00:23:55.790 --> 00:23:57.950 line:15%
We just need to go a little ways to finish this.
524
00:23:57.950 --> 00:24:01.130 line:15%
We call it the Ministry Expansion Project
525
00:24:01.130 --> 00:24:03.500
because when this is finished, it's going
526
00:24:03.500 --> 00:24:06.980 line:15%
to allow the ministry to
really expand financially,
527
00:24:06.980 --> 00:24:09.410 line:15%
to wrap our arms around the whole world
528
00:24:09.410 --> 00:24:12.740 line:15%
where people need the trusted
teaching of the Bible.
529
00:24:12.740 --> 00:24:14.930 line:15%
And we know that's our calling.
530
00:24:14.930 --> 00:24:17.060 line:15%
And if you're a part of
the Giving team, I want
531
00:24:17.060 --> 00:24:18.470 line:15%
to say thank you for helping us
532
00:24:18.470 --> 00:24:20.270 line:15%
to retire the dead on this facility
533
00:24:20.270 --> 00:24:22.520 line:15%
and to release those finances.
534
00:24:22.520 --> 00:24:24.200 line:15%
And if you're not a part
of the Giving Team yet,
535
00:24:24.200 --> 00:24:26.750 line:15%
I'm inviting you today to join us
536
00:24:26.750 --> 00:24:29.660 line:15%
to help us finish this project.
537
00:24:29.660 --> 00:24:32.870 line:15%
Wow! What a shout of victory we're gonna give to God on
538
00:24:32.870 --> 00:24:34.730 line:15%
that day when it's done.
539
00:24:34.730 --> 00:24:37.490 line:15%
And just think of the people
that are going to be reached.
540
00:24:37.490 --> 00:24:39.680 line:15%
So thank you for being a part
541
00:24:39.680 --> 00:24:41.600 line:15%
of the Ministry Expansion Project.
542
00:24:47.330 --> 00:24:49.550
You know, when we come back
tomorrow, we're going to see
543
00:24:49.550 --> 00:24:52.160
how you can inherit the promises
544
00:24:52.160 --> 00:24:54.890 line:15%
of God. When the flood was over and Noah
545
00:24:54.890 --> 00:24:59.630 line:15%
and his family exited the ark, the whole planet was theirs
546
00:24:59.630 --> 00:25:03.950 line:15%
and their job was to replenish the earth: to be fruitful
547
00:25:03.950 --> 00:25:07.430 line:15%
and to multiply, but they literally became inheritors
548
00:25:07.430 --> 00:25:08.930 line:15%
of the world.
549
00:25:08.930 --> 00:25:12.170 line:15%
And tomorrow I'm going to show you what you have to have
550
00:25:12.170 --> 00:25:14.120 line:15%
to inherit the promises of God
551
00:25:14.120 --> 00:25:18.980
and to even be blessed in turbulent times. But I want you
552
00:25:18.980 --> 00:25:21.530 line:15%
to order the entire series which is called, How
553
00:25:21.530 --> 00:25:25.100 line:15%
to Float on the Sea of Destruction in the Last Days.
554
00:25:25.100 --> 00:25:28.280 line:15%
You Can Do It - say Amen,
555
00:25:28.280 --> 00:25:30.410 line:15%
and be sure to also order the study guide
556
00:25:30.410 --> 00:25:31.910 line:15%
that goes along with it.
557
00:25:31.910 --> 00:25:34.730 line:15%
And we're offering you today my book,
558
00:25:34.730 --> 00:25:37.190 line:15%
which is called, Last Days Survival Guide.
559
00:25:37.190 --> 00:25:38.750 line:15%
Oh, how I want you to have this book,
560
00:25:38.750 --> 00:25:40.580 line:15%
and I want you to order several
561
00:25:40.580 --> 00:25:42.620 line:15%
because I know you're gonna
wanna share one of them
562
00:25:42.620 --> 00:25:45.740 line:15%
with somebody else who's
dealing with difficult times.
563
00:25:45.740 --> 00:25:47.840 line:15%
This book will really help them.
564
00:25:47.840 --> 00:25:51.860 line:15%
The subtitle says - A Scriptural Handbook to prepare you
565
00:25:51.860 --> 00:25:54.200 line:15%
for these Perilous Times.
566
00:25:54.200 --> 00:25:55.940
My friends, we're not just to survive
567
00:25:55.940 --> 00:25:59.570
these times, we're to thrive in them. And we can do it.
568
00:25:59.570 --> 00:26:02.600
We can do it. We can fearlessly obey
569
00:26:02.600 --> 00:26:04.340
what the Lord has told us to do
570
00:26:04.340 --> 00:26:07.100
and become inheritors of the promise
571
00:26:07.100 --> 00:26:09.325
of God even in difficult times.
572
00:26:09.325 --> 00:26:11.240
That's where we're gonna pick up tomorrow.
573
00:26:11.240 --> 00:26:13.730
But right now, I want you to
put your hand on your heart
574
00:26:13.730 --> 00:26:15.230 line:15%
and I wanna pray for you.
575
00:26:15.230 --> 00:26:17.630 line:15%
Father, I thank you that
you have not given me
576
00:26:17.630 --> 00:26:22.130 line:15%
or my friend the spirit of fear but of power and of love,
577
00:26:22.130 --> 00:26:24.740 line:15%
and of a sound of mind and in the name of Jesus -
578
00:26:24.740 --> 00:26:26.810 line:15%
now, friend, you do this with me -
579
00:26:26.810 --> 00:26:30.860 line:15%
we rebuke and resist the spirit of fear in Jesus' name,
580
00:26:30.860 --> 00:26:32.300 line:15%
and we tell you to go
581
00:26:33.230 --> 00:26:37.010 line:15%
and we embrace power, love,
582
00:26:37.010 --> 00:26:40.730 line:15%
and a sound mind - in Jesus' name,
583
00:26:40.730 --> 00:26:43.530 line:15%
Amen. Now you fearlessly do
584
00:26:43.530 --> 00:26:45.450 line:15%
what the Lord's telling you to do.
585
00:26:45.450 --> 00:26:48.690
And remember, Ecclesiastes 8:4, "Where the word
586
00:26:48.690 --> 00:26:51.210
of a king is there's power."
587
00:26:51.210 --> 00:26:53.490 line:15%
If you've never received
Jesus as your Savior
588
00:26:53.490 --> 00:26:57.870 line:15%
and Lord, now is the time for
you to experience a new life
589
00:26:57.870 --> 00:27:00.030 line:15%
Jesus has to give you.
590
00:27:00.030 --> 00:27:04.650
Pray this prayer with me right now - Lord, I repent
591
00:27:04.650 --> 00:27:08.130
of my sin and receive you as my Savior
592
00:27:08.130 --> 00:27:11.100
and Lord. Wash away my sin
593
00:27:11.100 --> 00:27:14.130
and make me completely new.
594
00:27:14.130 --> 00:27:17.880
I thank you that my sin is removed
595
00:27:17.880 --> 00:27:22.880
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.
596
00:27:23.490 --> 00:27:27.450
I faithfully promise that I will serve you as my Lord
597
00:27:27.450 --> 00:27:29.130
for the rest of my life
598
00:27:30.000 --> 00:27:34.770 line:15%
Amen. If you just
599
00:27:34.770 --> 00:27:36.960 line:15%
