00:00:00.880 --> 00:00:03.520
Patter. We thank you for the
word. Today. We asked you will

2
00:00:03.560 --> 00:00:11.919
help the preacher he needs. Help, help him greatly in Jesus' name,

3
00:00:11.960 --> 00:00:21.000
And everybody said, amen, I
want to talk to you about I want

4
00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:26.760
to get to eventually, I want
to get to a renewed mind. But

5
00:00:26.879 --> 00:00:29.480
before we get to a renewed mind, I want to talk a little bit

6
00:00:29.519 --> 00:00:39.679
about the bad mind that we had
before we came to the Lord. So

7
00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:51.560
this mind that we had was so
bad that if we would have come before

8
00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:57.520
the King right with the mind that
we had, we you know, the

9
00:00:57.520 --> 00:01:00.079
scepter would have fallen, but it
would have fallen right across our neck,

10
00:01:02.079 --> 00:01:04.439
and so you know, we would
have been taken out. You don't appear

11
00:01:04.519 --> 00:01:10.439
before the king if you don't have
a right relationship with the king. So

12
00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:14.040
the first thing that God does,
you know, when we come to Jesus

13
00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:23.760
and we accept him and we welcome
what Father has done through Jesus. The

14
00:01:23.799 --> 00:01:26.760
Bible says the Holy Spirit moves within
our spirit. And I got the big

15
00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:33.400
s here, that's the super on
your chest. That is your spirit man.

16
00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:37.280
The core of your heart is your
spirit man, and that's where Holy

17
00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:42.480
Spirit moves in. Holy Spirit comes
to dwell in your spirit. And actually

18
00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:49.120
what happens is you are remade in
the likeness of first Adam. So before

19
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:53.799
Adam fell, and we know it
really wasn't much of a fall, was

20
00:01:53.799 --> 00:02:00.159
it. It was more of a
choice, don't you think somebody? But

21
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:05.719
before Adam Afel, we know that
he was unified with God. He had

22
00:02:05.719 --> 00:02:08.439
all this stuff going on. He's
living in the garden of Eden. He's

23
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:13.639
got more provision than you could ever
imagine. He's got a divine purpose to

24
00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:20.479
heavenize the earth. He has a
partner, and that partner is bone of

25
00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:24.400
his bone, flesh of his flesh. There's no in between the enmity between

26
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:29.080
the two of them, no fighting, no rivalry, no strife, no

27
00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:36.039
competition, no jealousy, no anger, no selfish ambition. And the two

28
00:02:36.039 --> 00:02:39.960
of them are about to produce a
munch of offspring that love each other and

29
00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:44.639
root for each other and care for
each other. And they're in covenant with

30
00:02:44.680 --> 00:02:50.120
one another. And all this stuff
is going on, divine provision, divine

31
00:02:50.199 --> 00:02:55.800
purpose. He's got power over the
entire earth. And not only is he

32
00:02:55.879 --> 00:03:01.199
going to heavenize the earth, but
he's going to dominate all of the darkness

33
00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:07.159
he's going to dominate the enemy.
He's going to dominate every that creepeth.

34
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:12.319
He's going to dominate the serpent.
The serpent's present, but he's going to

35
00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:17.199
dominate the serpent. Do you think
he didn't know the serpent was present?

36
00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:22.000
The serpent, by the way,
we could get into a bunch of stuff

37
00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:24.840
we don't have time for. But
you know, the etymology of that word

38
00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:32.400
for the serpent is shining one enchantment. Do you think he wasn't aware of

39
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:40.039
that one in the garden before the
day they chose he was supposed to dominate

40
00:03:40.120 --> 00:03:46.479
that one. He was supposed to
dominate that one. And so he's in

41
00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:53.319
this crazy situation where he's alive in
the spirit because he could connect and commune

42
00:03:53.319 --> 00:04:01.800
with God. And then he falls, he chooses, then he's separated from

43
00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:04.759
God. And I've got this picture
up here of kind of what happens.

44
00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:13.240
This is his position on the day
that he falls. His position on the

45
00:04:13.319 --> 00:04:18.360
day that he falls is suddenly he's
condemned, he's alienated, he's separated.

46
00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:27.639
He also inherits inferiority and shame.
So this is his position. Now he's

47
00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:32.720
separated from God. And in this
separation from God, this effects. And

48
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:38.199
what I've drawn here is a foundation
to a house. You know, we're

49
00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:44.040
supposed to build our house on a
foundation, and so the house that we

50
00:04:44.120 --> 00:04:46.000
build, I've got to picture it
over here. It's kind of my restored

51
00:04:46.040 --> 00:04:50.319
lifehouse out of the heart of man. It's the tin trees. We're supposed

52
00:04:50.319 --> 00:04:55.079
to build this house on a good
foundation. But if we build on a

53
00:04:55.199 --> 00:05:00.720
foundation of sand, what happens The
house collapses, And so we're trying to

54
00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:03.839
build a house over here. Adam
is trying to build a house. But

55
00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:14.120
what happened is that when the cornerstone
of his life was destroyed through his choice,

56
00:05:14.360 --> 00:05:21.160
then his purpose cornerstone was destroyed.
His power over the enemy was destroyed,

57
00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:29.160
his partnership with humanity was destroyed.
The other cornerstones of his life were

58
00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:35.000
destroyed. And so he's waken up
the next day and now his purpose will

59
00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:39.680
he even fulfill it? He's banished
from the garden. No, he's not

60
00:05:39.720 --> 00:05:44.639
going to fulfill his purpose. He's
not going to heavenize the earth. His

61
00:05:44.680 --> 00:05:50.639
purpose is now cursed, and he's
going to only labor and fulfill anything through

62
00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:57.759
the sweat of self effort and the
provision and the blessing that was supposed to

63
00:05:57.800 --> 00:06:04.319
flow out of his son, out
of his righteousness, has been cut off.

64
00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:13.160
He's no longer empowered over darkness.
He's under the power of darkness.

65
00:06:13.879 --> 00:06:20.279
So instead of dominating over Satan,
he is dominated. So this means that

66
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:27.879
fear death, the curse, the
curse meaning everything to do with sickness,

67
00:06:28.079 --> 00:06:34.079
disease, defeat, darkness, everything
to do with death and the demonic realm.

68
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:38.959
He's now under it instead of over
it. He woke up the next

69
00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:42.079
day, he's under it instead of
over it. Now, I want you

70
00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:46.560
to think about how this affects his
thinking and how it affects the thinking of

71
00:06:46.639 --> 00:06:55.160
the lineage. Because condemnation came to
all men Romans five twelve, Death came

72
00:06:55.199 --> 00:07:01.000
to all. Condemnation came to all
we actually were of this lineage and sin,

73
00:07:01.319 --> 00:07:08.079
iniquity, darkness and all of these
dimensions. This is what we're born

74
00:07:08.160 --> 00:07:11.639
into, and this is what's normal
for us. This is what's common for

75
00:07:11.759 --> 00:07:15.839
us, and so we learn to
think out of this terminology. We don't

76
00:07:15.879 --> 00:07:19.319
see people as our partners. We
see them through the eyes through the lens

77
00:07:19.319 --> 00:07:29.319
of strife, contention, separation,
enmity, jealousy. When we're in the

78
00:07:29.399 --> 00:07:34.040
endemic nature. When we're under the
lineage of atom first atom, which is

79
00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:38.879
where we've all come from. Then
we're fighting with one another. We think

80
00:07:38.920 --> 00:07:45.759
people have our stuff. We're frustrated
with one another. We come into agreement

81
00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:53.519
with all of this negativity instead of
seeing that people are actually my partners to

82
00:07:53.680 --> 00:07:58.920
heavenize the earth. They're actually my
partners. I actually need them, I

83
00:07:59.040 --> 00:08:01.560
needs you in my life. You're
actually a part of the fulfillment of my

84
00:08:01.639 --> 00:08:07.480
purpose. We actually are meant to
work together so that both of us see

85
00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:15.199
the fulfillment of our purposes. This
is the old life over here, and

86
00:08:15.279 --> 00:08:20.879
the old life. As long as
we have this mindset, then we find

87
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:28.360
ourselves fruitless in bearing or we find
ourselves striving or laboring or sweating to bear

88
00:08:28.519 --> 00:08:33.480
fruit in these ten trees of which
we've talked about before. But we're not

89
00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:41.639
going to talk about today over here, in this position, while we're dead

90
00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:45.639
in our sins and our transgressions.
That's Romans chapter five eight. Right.

91
00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:52.120
While we were dead in our sins
in our transgressions, while we were unworthy,

92
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:58.799
Christ died for us. We just
read through the Romans this morning and

93
00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:05.960
have a great time reading through the
Romans. Let's go to Romans chapter three,

94
00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:09.480
twenty one through twenty four. We've
got that one. But now apart

95
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:16.840
excuse me, now, apart,
thank you. Now, apart from the

96
00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:22.399
law, the righteousness of God has
been manifested, being witnessed by the Law

97
00:09:22.440 --> 00:09:28.759
and the prophets. Keep going,
keep going, even the righteousness of God

98
00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:35.759
through faith in Jesus, for all
have sinned and fall short of the glory

99
00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:43.440
of God being justified as a gift
by His grace through the redemption which is

100
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:50.080
in Christ Jesus. So he's touching
on a few things there. One he

101
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:56.879
says that we're justified as a gift. We know that justified means just as

102
00:09:56.919 --> 00:09:58.799
if we never sin. So some
of this came forward this morning. We

103
00:09:58.799 --> 00:10:05.320
were acknowledging that we wanted to know
the Lord, that we wanted salvation,

104
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:09.759
that we wanted forgiveness of sin.
Part of what I want you to see

105
00:10:09.759 --> 00:10:16.519
this morning is that forgiveness of sin
is where Holy Spirit moves into your spirit.

106
00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:24.480
Man, and that's just the beginning
of a brand new life. That's

107
00:10:24.559 --> 00:10:30.480
just the beginning of a brand new
life. What's happening is that when you

108
00:10:30.679 --> 00:10:37.080
open up your heart in that way
that Holy Spirit stamps your bank account.

109
00:10:37.679 --> 00:10:43.399
See we come. You know we're
bankrupt. But what happens is Holy Spirit,

110
00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:48.879
is this a money bag? How
we doing? Holy Spirit stamps your

111
00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:56.799
bank account with this thing called justify. When you believe in Jesus, then

112
00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:07.639
everything that Jesus did in payment for
you is imputed to your bankrupt account,

113
00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:13.519
and so you receive the riches of
not only his forgiveness, but you receive

114
00:11:13.639 --> 00:11:22.679
the riches of his righteousness. You
receive the riches of his righteousness. So

115
00:11:22.799 --> 00:11:28.440
this is crazy. You couldn't appear
before a king if you weren't in right

116
00:11:28.519 --> 00:11:31.159
relationship with him, Like if you
had stolen from the kingdom, if you

117
00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:35.840
had harmed somebody in the kingdom,
if you had done something wrong in the

118
00:11:35.919 --> 00:11:39.600
kingdom. You don't dare go before
that king. You can have no relationship

119
00:11:39.879 --> 00:11:46.279
because you are not right with that
king. But when you are stamped with

120
00:11:46.399 --> 00:11:50.679
the righteousness of Jesus, not because
you earn it, not because you deserve

121
00:11:50.720 --> 00:11:58.360
it, but because of what Jesus
did on your behalf, so because you

122
00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:05.480
believe, only because you believe and
confess him as your savior, as your

123
00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:09.639
Lord, as your king, as
the one who's given you life. Because

124
00:12:09.679 --> 00:12:15.960
you believe in your heart and confess
with your mouth, then Heaven stamps your

125
00:12:16.120 --> 00:12:26.440
bankrupt bank account with justified and righteous. Justified and righteous justified means that from

126
00:12:26.559 --> 00:12:33.600
that moment forward, God looks at
you as if you've never sinned. Now

127
00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:39.399
you're gonna wake up tomorrow morning and
probably look at yourself as if you've sinned,

128
00:12:39.399 --> 00:12:43.639
But God is not looking at you
as if you've sinned. When you

129
00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:46.360
woke up this morning, you were
aware of some shortcomings. You were aware

130
00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:50.960
of some things you'd done wrong.
You were aware of things you'd confessed and

131
00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:56.799
even for gotten forgiveness of. And
yet there was something about you that might

132
00:12:56.879 --> 00:13:03.879
have thought of yourself as maybe not
one who has never sinned, and maybe

133
00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:11.320
not one who is righteous or standing
in righteousness. But this is how God

134
00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:16.039
sees you. And God is pleading
with you to see yourself the way he

135
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:22.919
sees you. He's pleading with you
see yourself the way He sees you.

136
00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:26.919
So let's go back to that passage
real quick. Because you can't earn this.

137
00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:31.639
You don't deserve this, none of
us do. There's nothing we can

138
00:13:31.720 --> 00:13:37.039
do to earn this except to believe
upon Jesus. Now, apart from the

139
00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:43.399
Law, the righteousness of God has
been manifested, seen, clearly made known,

140
00:13:43.759 --> 00:13:46.679
witnessed by the Law and the prophets. Even the righteousness of God through

141
00:13:48.440 --> 00:13:54.600
faith in Jesus Christ for all of
those who believe. For there is no

142
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:58.639
distinction, meaning, it doesn't matter
if you're a Greek. That's what he

143
00:13:58.679 --> 00:14:01.200
goes on to say. No matter
if you're a Greek or a Jew,

144
00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:07.440
if you're tall, slender, short, if you're from Europe, if you're

145
00:14:07.480 --> 00:14:11.360
from Africa, if you're from Asia, it doesn't matter. There's no distinction.

146
00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:15.360
If you're a human, if you've
got red blood, if you were

147
00:14:15.440 --> 00:14:24.600
born into the lineage of Adam with
this broken, fractured mindset, then this

148
00:14:24.759 --> 00:14:28.639
is for you. All you have
to do is believe, trust and believe.

149
00:14:30.120 --> 00:14:35.159
Believe with your heart what God has
done through Jesus. Confess with your

150
00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:41.720
mouth. Come into agreement. There's
always the come into agreement part. Everybody

151
00:14:41.759 --> 00:14:48.039
say, come into agreement. Now, this is why we need a renewed

152
00:14:48.039 --> 00:14:50.159
mind. By the way, this
is why we need a renewed mind.

153
00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:52.799
Let's see, I want to read
another scripture or two, and then we'll

154
00:14:52.799 --> 00:14:56.840
get onto the renewed mind. Part
is that all right? But to the

155
00:14:56.840 --> 00:15:01.080
one who does not work, this
is Romans chapter four. I think we

156
00:15:01.159 --> 00:15:05.000
have this one. But to the
one who does not work but believes in

157
00:15:05.080 --> 00:15:09.519
him who justifies the ungodly, why
in the world would you justify the ungodly?

158
00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:18.879
Isn't that amazing? God justifies the
ungodly. But to the one who

159
00:15:18.919 --> 00:15:24.440
does not work, Hello, somebody, we don't work to get righteous.

160
00:15:24.919 --> 00:15:30.559
We work because we are righteous.
We don't work to become a son of

161
00:15:30.600 --> 00:15:33.679
God. We work because we are
a son of God. We don't work

162
00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:37.759
so that we can somehow measure up. We measure up in Him. So

163
00:15:37.840 --> 00:15:43.080
therefore we work. We're hidden in
him. We're hidden in the Beloved.

164
00:15:43.399 --> 00:15:46.480
We're hidden in the Redeemer. We're
hidden in the Restorer. So to him

165
00:15:46.519 --> 00:15:52.320
who does not work but believes in
him who justifies the ungodly, his faith

166
00:15:52.399 --> 00:15:58.879
is credited to him as righteousness,
just as David also speaks of the blessing

167
00:15:58.279 --> 00:16:04.320
on the man to whom God credits
righteousness apart from works. Is there a

168
00:16:04.320 --> 00:16:08.039
believer in the building this morning?
Is there a believer in the building this

169
00:16:08.080 --> 00:16:14.840
morning? Now what happens is when
you believe first. Then God begins.

170
00:16:15.200 --> 00:16:18.840
He has the power, the grace, the enablement because of the indwelling spirit,

171
00:16:19.120 --> 00:16:25.399
to begin to rework your mind and
reframe your mind and tell you the

172
00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:32.759
truth about the new creation, instead
of you listening to the lies about who

173
00:16:32.879 --> 00:16:37.759
you were, as if who you
were is still who you are? Did

174
00:16:37.799 --> 00:16:41.159
you know who you were is not
who you are? Did you know who

175
00:16:41.320 --> 00:16:48.639
you were is not who you are? You got to know this twenty four

176
00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:53.240
to seven, twenty four seven.
You have to know that who you were

177
00:16:53.440 --> 00:16:56.559
is not who you are. And
it doesn't matter if you fall short,

178
00:16:56.600 --> 00:17:00.960
It doesn't matter if you falter,
if it doesn't have anybody in the room

179
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:04.839
ever fallen short, Has anybody in
the room ever faltered? I kind of

180
00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:07.960
look back at that stuff and say, well, that's a bummer, but

181
00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:12.160
that isn't who I am. So
I'm not going to get underneath that.

182
00:17:14.079 --> 00:17:17.960
The Lord rebuke that stuff, Well, I'm done with that. I don't

183
00:17:17.960 --> 00:17:19.880
even have to listen to that,
obey that follow that. I don't have

184
00:17:19.920 --> 00:17:25.160
to get under condemnation over that.
Praise the Lord. That isn't even the

185
00:17:25.279 --> 00:17:30.319
nature that I have. I have
a new nature. I just want you

186
00:17:30.359 --> 00:17:34.759
to see how this stuff talks to
you, because this was essentially the sum

187
00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:40.200
total. This was your house,
and this was the foundation of your house,

188
00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:55.119
and this was the sum total of
your identity. This was the sum

189
00:17:55.119 --> 00:18:03.039
total of your identity. It's no
longer your identity. If you've come to

190
00:18:03.119 --> 00:18:08.279
Christ today, if today you gave
your life to the Lord, then you

191
00:18:10.160 --> 00:18:14.960
have a new identity. You already
have a new identity. Let's go to

192
00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:18.079
Second Corinthians, chapter five. Second
Corinthians, chapter five, starting at verse

193
00:18:18.160 --> 00:18:22.759
sixteen. Let's read that together.
Therefore, from now on we recognize no

194
00:18:22.839 --> 00:18:27.359
one according to the flesh, even
though we have known Christ according to the

195
00:18:27.400 --> 00:18:34.240
flesh. Yet no longer yet now, no longer you got to go back.

196
00:18:34.279 --> 00:18:41.119
You went too fast. Yet now
we know him in this way,

197
00:18:41.480 --> 00:18:45.039
no longer. Therefore, if anyone
is in Christ, he is a new

198
00:18:45.079 --> 00:18:51.400
creature. The old things passed away. Behold, new things have come.

199
00:18:52.160 --> 00:18:57.240
What's he saying. He's saying that, you know, when he was here,

200
00:18:59.119 --> 00:19:02.519
we kind of we didn't know for
sure if he was the Christ,

201
00:19:03.119 --> 00:19:07.119
like that's not his last name,
and so we suspected he was the Christ.

202
00:19:07.799 --> 00:19:11.000
And some of us believed he was
the Christ. But then when we

203
00:19:11.039 --> 00:19:15.559
met with him afterwards. Pretty much
all of us except for Thomas, knew

204
00:19:15.640 --> 00:19:21.880
he was the Christ, even though
he just walked through the wall to come

205
00:19:21.960 --> 00:19:26.640
visit us. Thomas was still doubting
that he was the Christ. Thomas,

206
00:19:26.680 --> 00:19:33.519
he's a fellow, But we thought
he was Mary and Joseph's son. But

207
00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:38.519
then we discovered after the resurrection he
wasn't just Marry and Joseph's son. He

208
00:19:38.559 --> 00:19:44.720
actually was the Christ, the Anointed, the Redeemer, the scent One,

209
00:19:44.759 --> 00:19:49.039
the supreme One, the one after
the manner of Melkezedic, the one who

210
00:19:49.279 --> 00:19:57.359
was the last Adam. Christ is
the last Adam. Oh, what in

211
00:19:57.440 --> 00:20:03.920
the world is an atom? In
atom? Adam was the genesis of a

212
00:20:04.319 --> 00:20:12.759
specie of humans. So the first
atom was the genesis of us previously.

213
00:20:15.960 --> 00:20:22.519
But now I've put that individual to
death. Has anybody died to Adam?

214
00:20:23.400 --> 00:20:27.240
That's why we get baptized in water. Why in the world do we get

215
00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:32.319
baptized in water. Well, the
water represents the surface of the earth,

216
00:20:33.599 --> 00:20:37.640
and you're actually putting this person,
the old atom, to death, and

217
00:20:38.200 --> 00:20:45.799
the water and the baptism is a
burial service. It's not symbolic of a

218
00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:49.920
burial service. It is a burial
service. It's not just symbolism. It's

219
00:20:49.960 --> 00:20:56.160
a real deal. When you go
under the waters of baptism, all of

220
00:20:56.200 --> 00:21:00.079
the spirit realm, all of Heaven, and all of the spirit realm is

221
00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:08.920
going to recognize that this old person
is dead. Now, if you live

222
00:21:10.559 --> 00:21:17.200
like the old person is still alive, then you're being dumb and all of

223
00:21:17.240 --> 00:21:22.720
the demons can't figure it out.
But they're glad to help you because you

224
00:21:22.799 --> 00:21:27.480
are now hidden in a new atom. He is the genesis of a brand

225
00:21:27.519 --> 00:21:33.240
new specie. So when you're born
of the spirit and the spirit moves in,

226
00:21:34.079 --> 00:21:38.200
actually what's happened is you just didn't
get forgiveness of sins. You actually

227
00:21:38.240 --> 00:21:45.640
got transferred out of the old atom, who was dominated by darkness, who

228
00:21:45.720 --> 00:21:52.119
was in strife and ignmusty with humans
who had no guarantee to fulfill their purpose,

229
00:21:52.720 --> 00:21:59.799
and was no longer living as a
son of God. You are taken

230
00:21:59.839 --> 00:22:03.920
out of that completely through what Jesus
has do. You're brought over here,

231
00:22:03.960 --> 00:22:08.759
you're made a son or a daughter
of God. You're accepted, you're covered,

232
00:22:08.799 --> 00:22:18.759
you're righteous, you're justified. Hello, somebody that makes you royalty.

233
00:22:18.480 --> 00:22:23.799
The code of many colors that Joseph
wore it was symbolic of what you've come

234
00:22:23.839 --> 00:22:29.599
into. You are now highly favored. You have an audience with God.

235
00:22:29.880 --> 00:22:33.799
You can show up and the scepter
will be given to you instead of come

236
00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:37.839
across your neck. You have the
scepter to rule. The scepter does not

237
00:22:38.000 --> 00:22:41.599
depart from Judah. It's given to
you, the sons and daughters of God.

238
00:22:42.079 --> 00:22:48.880
You are accepted in the Beloved,
and this is the chief cornerstone.

239
00:22:48.880 --> 00:22:55.039
Acts Chapter four says Jesus has become
the chief cornerstone to the building of your

240
00:22:55.039 --> 00:22:59.480
house and the rebuilding of your life, as Adam was before the fall.

241
00:23:00.119 --> 00:23:06.319
You have purpose, and you have
a guaranteed purpose. It's unique in your

242
00:23:06.400 --> 00:23:11.079
generation. You are set apart,
you are blessed, and you have provision

243
00:23:11.200 --> 00:23:15.559
for that purpose. God has all
ready ordained. He's already put in your

244
00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:22.279
bank account, your monetary bank account, everything you need to fulfill your purpose,

245
00:23:26.920 --> 00:23:32.200
everything you need, every relationship you
need, has already been given to

246
00:23:32.240 --> 00:23:37.200
you. All the favor you need, every person you need, every partnership

247
00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:40.599
you need, all of the harmony
you need, all of the kindness you

248
00:23:40.720 --> 00:23:45.799
need. It's all ready part of
this new creation life. I don't need

249
00:23:45.799 --> 00:23:49.279
to compete with anybody. They don't
have my stuff. God's got me.

250
00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:53.240
God can bless you and bless me
at the same time. I can't bankrupt

251
00:23:53.319 --> 00:23:56.079
God when I'm away from him,
I need your stuff, so I'm going

252
00:23:56.119 --> 00:23:59.799
to steal from you. When I
come to him, suddenly, I don't

253
00:23:59.799 --> 00:24:03.000
need your stuff. I've got a
complete inheritance he carved out for me.

254
00:24:07.160 --> 00:24:11.359
The fact is He's giving me so
much. I can be generous and give

255
00:24:11.400 --> 00:24:15.039
you some of what I have and
be a blessing to you, so that

256
00:24:15.160 --> 00:24:19.279
together in harmony, we can see
our purpose is fulfilled. And I dominate

257
00:24:19.400 --> 00:24:23.519
darkness. I'm not under it.
I dominate darkness. I dominate the curse.

258
00:24:23.799 --> 00:24:29.079
I dominate everything to do with the
curse. It is all under my

259
00:24:29.160 --> 00:24:32.240
feet. It's not going to be
under my feet. It is now under

260
00:24:32.240 --> 00:24:34.799
my feet. And I will see
all of it put under my feet as

261
00:24:34.839 --> 00:24:49.160
I continue to believe that this is
all because of righteousness. He's imputed righteousness

262
00:24:49.240 --> 00:24:55.160
to our account. Listen to Romans
chapter twelve verse two. You know Romans

263
00:24:55.240 --> 00:24:59.599
chapter twelve one and two. You're
familiar with those really well, Romans chapter

264
00:24:59.640 --> 00:25:03.599
twelve one and two, And do
not be conformed to this world. Now

265
00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:12.119
we have to die to Adam.
We have to die to Adam where we

266
00:25:12.160 --> 00:25:21.480
can't live in the last atom.
And to the degree that you die to

267
00:25:21.680 --> 00:25:26.680
Adam, to that degree you can
flourish in the last atom. This is

268
00:25:26.720 --> 00:25:32.880
important. So that's why he starts
Revelation Romans chapter twelve in verse one by

269
00:25:32.920 --> 00:25:36.960
saying, present your body as a
living sacrifice. He's talking about this whole

270
00:25:37.160 --> 00:25:41.359
All of Romans is talking about this
new creation life and talking about death,

271
00:25:41.400 --> 00:25:44.240
and I mean, it's just it's
beautiful stuff. I wish we could read

272
00:25:44.240 --> 00:25:45.440
the whole thing. I want you
to go home and read Romans this week.

273
00:25:45.720 --> 00:25:49.000
Read it two, three, four
times. It's just so powerful.

274
00:25:49.039 --> 00:25:55.000
Started chapter three and read all the
way through to chapter ten and just meditate

275
00:25:55.200 --> 00:25:59.559
on what's in there, because it's
so beautiful for this season that we're in,

276
00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:04.200
and so beautiful for this coming into
Resurrection Sunday, Easter Sunday, and

277
00:26:04.519 --> 00:26:08.480
just everything that's going to be transpiring
as we think about it, and God

278
00:26:08.680 --> 00:26:17.359
redoing it in us. He's re
reawakening, getting at us. So we

279
00:26:17.440 --> 00:26:22.640
present ourselves dead over here, We're
dead to Adam. But then listen and

280
00:26:22.720 --> 00:26:29.000
do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of

281
00:26:29.000 --> 00:26:30.359
your mind. Well, hang on, hang on, hang on. I

282
00:26:30.400 --> 00:26:34.799
already did a John three three through
five thing. I already opened up my

283
00:26:34.839 --> 00:26:40.440
heart, and I already welcomed the
spirit to live within me, and I

284
00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:45.400
already trusted in Jesus. I thought
I was already transformed. The transformation that

285
00:26:45.440 --> 00:26:52.319
he's talking about, the metamorphois here
is actually a transformation of manifestation, not

286
00:26:52.440 --> 00:27:00.400
a transformation of legalities. There's a
legality that it is real. We open

287
00:27:00.480 --> 00:27:06.759
up our hearts to Jesus. Jesus
comes to dwell in our spirit. Man

288
00:27:06.839 --> 00:27:11.319
and Holy Spirit is there bearing witness
to the truth. But our external manifestation

289
00:27:11.559 --> 00:27:17.960
doesn't change much until we begin to
come into agreement. That's what renew your

290
00:27:17.960 --> 00:27:22.640
mind means. It means come into
agreement with what He's who He's made you

291
00:27:22.720 --> 00:27:29.279
to be, Come into agreement with
who He's made you to be. And

292
00:27:29.319 --> 00:27:32.480
so, you know, you get
up on Monday morning and you start,

293
00:27:32.759 --> 00:27:34.720
you know, meditating what you're going
to do this week, and then you

294
00:27:34.759 --> 00:27:38.440
start thinking that you know, I
don't even know if if what I do

295
00:27:38.519 --> 00:27:44.480
is important. You let that thought
rattle around a little bit. Uh,

296
00:27:44.559 --> 00:27:51.559
that's not a renewed thought. I
wonder if I have sufficiency to even get

297
00:27:51.599 --> 00:27:53.400
done what it is that's on my
heart to do well, that's not a

298
00:27:53.400 --> 00:28:00.039
renewed thought. I wonder if I'm
even important. I wonder if is my

299
00:28:00.119 --> 00:28:04.319
purpose even unique or important. That's
not every new thought, you know,

300
00:28:04.359 --> 00:28:07.480
I don't know if it's ever going
to get come to pass what it is

301
00:28:07.519 --> 00:28:15.920
God's put on my heart. See
what happens is oftentimes we come over here

302
00:28:15.960 --> 00:28:19.000
and we think it's all about forgiveness
of sin and born of the spirit.

303
00:28:19.519 --> 00:28:27.279
But it's not. It's about you
taking off your old dead's skin and the

304
00:28:27.400 --> 00:28:33.759
old ugly caterpillar that you were,
and putting on the butterfly that you are.

305
00:28:33.920 --> 00:28:38.839
It's about the metamorphois of you living
in this life, in the glory

306
00:28:38.880 --> 00:28:45.480
of God and manifesting His glory every
single day. Otherwise, as I told

307
00:28:45.519 --> 00:28:48.160
you a week or two ago,
we would just shoot you right after you

308
00:28:48.200 --> 00:28:52.119
come to the Lord just or the
Lord just you know, he could have

309
00:28:52.200 --> 00:28:55.039
a dip tank. We could just
have a hot dip tank, and just

310
00:28:55.079 --> 00:28:57.200
you know, as you walk out
of the sanctuary, those of you that

311
00:28:57.200 --> 00:29:00.480
are newly in the Lord, we'd
fun you through a spot and you know,

312
00:29:00.559 --> 00:29:03.039
and it just be like a hot
pool there you just dive in and

313
00:29:03.079 --> 00:29:07.720
just you know you we'd never see
you again. You know, there's a

314
00:29:07.799 --> 00:29:10.680
lake of fire. You know,
it's a kind of a why do you

315
00:29:10.680 --> 00:29:12.039
have a lake of fire in the
Fia, Well, because they go directly

316
00:29:12.079 --> 00:29:18.440
to heaven. Now, God has
so much more in mind for us.

317
00:29:22.039 --> 00:29:27.960
The mandate of first atom has been
restored to us. Go heavenize the earth.

318
00:29:33.119 --> 00:29:38.240
Now, you can't heavenize the earth
if you haven't come into agreement with

319
00:29:38.440 --> 00:29:45.880
the Heaven that's living in you by
the big ass on your chest, the

320
00:29:45.920 --> 00:29:48.599
Holy Spirit dwelling in you. You
can't heavenize the earth if you haven't come

321
00:29:48.640 --> 00:29:53.599
into agreement yourself. You have to
come into agreement with it. And so

322
00:29:53.799 --> 00:30:00.319
he says, don't be conformed to
this world any longer and the world way

323
00:30:00.359 --> 00:30:04.000
of thinking, but be transformed by
the renewing of your mind, so that

324
00:30:04.079 --> 00:30:08.480
you may prove what the will of
God is, that which is good,

325
00:30:10.200 --> 00:30:18.559
acceptable and perfect. Come on,
somebody, now, I think renewing of

326
00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:22.839
the mind. Yes, you need
to know the word of God. You

327
00:30:22.880 --> 00:30:25.319
need to know the promises of God. You need to know the word of

328
00:30:25.359 --> 00:30:29.039
God, you need to know the
prophetic word of your own life. That's

329
00:30:29.119 --> 00:30:32.119
all super important. It's really true. But you know, if you know

330
00:30:32.319 --> 00:30:38.599
these four cornerstones, as you know
that, renewing your mind oftentimes just comes

331
00:30:38.599 --> 00:30:44.400
into it. It's just coming into
agreement with that stuff and then taking the

332
00:30:44.480 --> 00:30:56.000
time to reflect on it. Satan
is after your mind. Satan is constantly

333
00:30:56.079 --> 00:31:03.640
after your mind through amusement, through
through over a thousand television choices on your

334
00:31:03.680 --> 00:31:08.680
cable TV. You have a thousand
choices on your cable TV. And if

335
00:31:08.720 --> 00:31:17.599
that weren't enough, you have a
million choices on your phone. The enemy

336
00:31:17.799 --> 00:31:22.160
doesn't want you thinking, and if
he does allow you to think, he

337
00:31:22.240 --> 00:31:27.319
just wants you thinking more about Yes, I'm forgiven. Yes I'm going to

338
00:31:27.400 --> 00:31:33.880
heaven, but life is hell.
Only once in a while will I cuss

339
00:31:33.880 --> 00:31:38.920
in church, and it's hard to
squeeze those words out. I apologize in

340
00:31:38.960 --> 00:31:45.519
advance. But this is the perspective
of so many of us who have come

341
00:31:47.160 --> 00:31:52.680
to a religious experience in Jesus or
in the church. We're seeing Jesus as

342
00:31:52.240 --> 00:31:56.720
Yes, it's a born again experience. Yes my sins are forgiven. Yes,

343
00:31:56.759 --> 00:32:00.000
I'm going to heaven. But that's
the fullness of it, that's the

344
00:32:00.119 --> 00:32:05.759
extent of it. It's not it's
only the beginning of heaven on earth,

345
00:32:07.039 --> 00:32:16.960
on earth as it is in heaven. So many times it's these we're making

346
00:32:17.000 --> 00:32:22.880
this choice. We have to make
the choice right. And as we think

347
00:32:22.920 --> 00:32:28.720
about people, Oh my goodness,
people are my friend. I have favor.

348
00:32:28.759 --> 00:32:34.359
Wherever I go, God favors me, and I am somebody else's favor.

349
00:32:38.279 --> 00:32:42.880
I need to be used of God
to bless them, not used of

350
00:32:42.960 --> 00:32:46.920
the enemy to take from them.
As I'm used of God to bless them.

351
00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:53.119
God blesses me because I'm coming into
harmony with a house that's built on

352
00:32:53.200 --> 00:33:00.480
a sure foundation. My purpose is
guaranteed. I have dominion over it.

353
00:33:00.640 --> 00:33:06.839
So it's sad with me this morning. Then I'm gonna try to close.

354
00:33:08.039 --> 00:33:12.079
Somebody said, hello, loluj When
I said that, what was that?

355
00:33:12.240 --> 00:33:22.000
My wife? My world? I
know, honey, I know, honey.

356
00:33:22.400 --> 00:33:39.759
Bless you, honey, bless you, honey. I wrote a note

357
00:33:39.759 --> 00:33:44.599
down to your worship. Mm hmmm, can you love? Can you hand

358
00:33:44.640 --> 00:33:49.039
me that wader? The partial one, the partial one? Mm hmmm.

359
00:34:07.079 --> 00:34:17.440
If Jesus is the genesis of a
new creation. Not only do you bear

360
00:34:17.480 --> 00:34:28.760
his image, but you you,
your whole life is wrapped up in the

361
00:34:28.880 --> 00:34:42.719
DNA of Jesus. He is the
beginning of a new creation of superior people,

362
00:34:45.800 --> 00:34:53.119
superior over darkness, superior in fulfillment, superior in fruitfulness, superior in

363
00:34:53.199 --> 00:35:19.079
grace. I know the enemy wants
to continue to convince us that this is

364
00:35:19.119 --> 00:35:23.159
our reality, this is our identity, this is who we are. But

365
00:35:23.239 --> 00:35:32.960
because you're dead to the genesis of
First Adam, you don't have to listen

366
00:35:34.000 --> 00:35:38.599
anymore. You don't have to cooperate
anymore. You don't have to partner anymore.

367
00:35:39.400 --> 00:35:43.800
You don't have to yield anymore.
You don't have to agree anymore.

368
00:35:45.400 --> 00:35:51.880
You don't have to let one of
those thoughts have place within you. And

369
00:35:51.960 --> 00:36:04.079
the truth is, the presence of
those thoughts is the presence of a lie.

370
00:36:05.800 --> 00:36:14.639
The presence of those thoughts is the
presence of a lie. You know

371
00:36:14.679 --> 00:36:20.440
where you discern spirits, you discern
spirits, or you discern the spirit realm,

372
00:36:20.599 --> 00:36:23.239
or you discern the word of a
spirit in your inner men, in

373
00:36:23.320 --> 00:36:30.760
your thought life. So Second Corinthians
ten three through five says the weapons of

374
00:36:30.760 --> 00:36:37.000
our warfare are mighty through God to
the pulling down of strongholds, taking every

375
00:36:37.519 --> 00:36:46.199
thought captive to the obedience of Christ. I'm a new creation in Christ.

376
00:36:51.039 --> 00:36:54.119
I don't see you as I did
before, according to your flesh or your

377
00:36:54.159 --> 00:36:59.800
lineage. I don't see him any
longer according to his flesh or his lineage.

378
00:37:00.639 --> 00:37:05.280
I don't see me any longer according
to my flesh or my lineage.

379
00:37:06.800 --> 00:37:15.119
I'm a brand new preacher. So
for me to even entertain a thought that

380
00:37:15.280 --> 00:37:22.239
contradicts what He's done in Christ for
me and who he is, because who

381
00:37:22.280 --> 00:37:31.239
he is is who I am.
Who he is is who I am just

382
00:37:31.280 --> 00:37:37.400
as sure as who Adam was I
was, but who he is now I

383
00:37:37.440 --> 00:37:45.800
am. So salvation is more than
getting born of the spirit spirit moves in,

384
00:37:45.239 --> 00:37:52.480
more than forgiveness of sins. It's
becoming a brand new person who is

385
00:37:52.639 --> 00:38:01.840
the same person as who he is. Hello, somebody. That's why John

386
00:38:01.960 --> 00:38:07.920
said that right now we don't even
know who we are. It doesn't yet

387
00:38:08.000 --> 00:38:15.159
upp hear, but we're going to
be blown away because when we see him,

388
00:38:15.280 --> 00:38:21.360
we're going to realize we're just like
him. When we see him,

389
00:38:21.679 --> 00:38:35.719
we're going to realize we're just like
him. And it all starts with righteousness.

390
00:38:36.800 --> 00:38:43.440
It all starts with righteousness, justified
and righteous. He's stamped your bank

391
00:38:43.480 --> 00:38:49.719
account mass a prayer to him to
come this morning. If you're here this

392
00:38:49.840 --> 00:39:05.119
morning and you're just maybe the enemy
has been accusing you. Maybe you've been

393
00:39:05.159 --> 00:39:13.559
struggling in your purpose, feeling like
you're under the curse, struggling with other

394
00:39:13.800 --> 00:39:24.960
people, allowing thoughts, harmed with
thoughts, hammered with thoughts, hit with

395
00:39:25.079 --> 00:39:35.599
thoughts that contradict who God has made
you in the New creation. Just come

396
00:39:35.679 --> 00:39:40.039
and get some agreement on that.
Allow the prayer team to pray with you.

397
00:39:49.719 --> 00:39:55.519
Even even to cancel a lie is
a powerful thing, right like just

398
00:39:57.599 --> 00:40:01.360
to cancel a lie. There's been
a lie. Thoughts, lying assignments,

399
00:40:01.960 --> 00:40:07.920
lying words, harassing you. Come
and let them be canceled. Come and

400
00:40:07.000 --> 00:40:13.920
let them be canceled. Let those
lives be canceled. You are who God

401
00:40:14.000 --> 00:40:20.119
says you are. You are set
apart, you are unique, You are

402
00:40:20.400 --> 00:40:31.000
blessed, You are valuable, you
are worthwhile, You have a guaranteed future,

403
00:40:34.840 --> 00:40:37.119
You have all the provision that you
need. What lie have you been

404
00:40:37.159 --> 00:40:43.519
listening to? God has ordained that
you would be healthy. God's ordained that

405
00:40:43.599 --> 00:40:47.480
you would be strong, God's ordained
that you would be restored. God's ordained,

406
00:40:47.840 --> 00:40:53.639
He's ordained all of this in Christ, who is the beginning of a

407
00:40:53.679 --> 00:41:02.079
brand new specie of humans, the
Genesis, the genesis of a brand new

408
00:41:02.559 --> 00:41:09.320
specie of humans. And you are
in him. You by trusting in him,

409
00:41:09.760 --> 00:41:15.119
you have hidden yourself in him.
And now you are a new creation.

410
00:41:16.360 --> 00:41:20.719
The old is gone, the old
can no longer hold you, and

411
00:41:20.800 --> 00:41:29.559
the new has come. Let's worship
as we go, and as we do.

412
00:41:29.639 --> 00:41:31.920
I just invite you, invites you, invites you. Come and cancel

413
00:41:32.079 --> 00:41:37.519
alive. Come and put to death
something that's been holding onto you. Come

414
00:41:37.559 --> 00:41:54.960
and declare the dismissing of something that's
been harassing you, worrying against your victory,

415
00:41:55.880 --> 00:42:06.920
keeping you from the new creation,
standing against your transformation, transformed metamorphosed

416
00:42:08.760 --> 00:42:13.920
by the renewing of your mind.
Or we choose a renewed mind this morning.

417
00:42:14.239 --> 00:42:19.199
We choose a renewed mind this morning. We choose thoughts from above.

418
00:42:19.280 --> 00:42:25.920
We choose thoughts like the thoughts of
Jesus. We choose thoughts of victory.

419
00:42:27.320 --> 00:42:35.079
We choose thoughts of grace. We
choose thoughts of reigning. We choose thoughts

420
00:42:35.119 --> 00:42:38.840
of power. We choose thoughts of
dominion. We choose thoughts of health.

421
00:42:38.920 --> 00:42:45.280
We choose thoughts of favor. We
choose thoughts of friendship, we choose thoughts

422
00:42:46.639 --> 00:42:53.239
of partnerships. We choose thoughts from
above. We set our thoughts into agreement

423
00:42:54.360 --> 00:42:58.800
with thoughts from above, in Jesus'
name,
