Speaker 1: Hi, I'm Rick Warren, and Merry Christmas. Christmas is going
Speaker 1: to be here very soon. And Jesus said in Luke
Speaker 1: fourteen twenty three, go out into the highways in the
Speaker 1: countryside and urge everybody you find to come in so
Speaker 1: that my house will be full. Who are you thinking
Speaker 1: of to bring to your church? Whoever it is. I
Speaker 1: want to challenge you to be a light at Christmas
Speaker 1: and invite them to services at your church.
Speaker 2: Hey, everyone, welcome to Pastor Rick's Daily Hope. This is
Speaker 2: the Bible teaching ministry of Rick Warren. We're so glad
Speaker 2: you're here with us today. Rick is going to begin
Speaker 2: the first part of a message called the Greatest Gifts
Speaker 2: You'll Ever Get. This is a powerful Christmas message about
Speaker 2: how God's love, grace, and purpose will bring you lasting
Speaker 2: hope and joy. Now let's get right to Rick.
Speaker 1: Now. The whole purpose of Christmas is summed up in
Speaker 1: the most famous verse in the Bible. It's a verse
Speaker 1: that we've all heard many times. John chapter three, verse sixteen,
Speaker 1: and it says, this God so loved the world that
Speaker 1: he gave his only son, that whoever believes in him
Speaker 1: should not perish, but have everlasting life. That's the whole
Speaker 1: purpose of Christmas. God so loved the world. By the way,
Speaker 1: it all starts with love that he gave. You can
Speaker 1: give without loving, but you cannot love without giving. God
Speaker 1: so loved the world that he gave the very first
Speaker 1: Christmas gift. The whole reason that we give gifts at
Speaker 1: Christmas is because God started this whole tradition by giving
Speaker 1: the first Christmas gift. And the first Christmas gift was
Speaker 1: God's gift of his son to you. It's the first gift.
Speaker 1: It's the most expensive gift you'll ever get, and it's
Speaker 1: the greatest gift you're ever going to receive. Now follow
Speaker 1: the logic of the Bible. Romans Chapter eight says this
Speaker 1: on your outline. Since God did not spare his own son,
Speaker 1: but he gave him up for us all, then can
Speaker 1: we not expect that with him, God will freely give
Speaker 1: us all his gifts. Notice the logic here. If God
Speaker 1: loves you enough to send Jesus Christ to coming down
Speaker 1: the cross for you, he loves you enough to take
Speaker 1: care of all your other needs, pay your bills, help
Speaker 1: you with your health relationships. He says, if God so
Speaker 1: loved us so much that he gave his only son,
Speaker 1: Can we not expect him to give us freely all
Speaker 1: his other gifts? Circle the phrase with him? Notice with him.
Speaker 1: With God's gift of Jesus, you get many other gifts
Speaker 1: at the same time. Have you ever received a gift
Speaker 1: inside of a gift? Sure you have, you know. You
Speaker 1: get a box, you open it up, there's a box inside.
Speaker 1: You open it up. There's a box inside that. You
Speaker 1: open up, there's a box inside that, and inside one
Speaker 1: gift is a bunch of other little gifts. At Christmas,
Speaker 1: God's gift to you is Jesus Christ. That's the big gift.
Speaker 1: That's the big box that God gives you. God so
Speaker 1: loved you that he gave his only son to die
Speaker 1: for you. That's the big gift. But inside the big
Speaker 1: box are many other smaller gifts. All of God's gifts
Speaker 1: are wrapped in Jesus. And when you get Jesus, you
Speaker 1: get all the other gifts that He wants to give you.
Speaker 1: I once did a study of this, and I made
Speaker 1: a list of all the gifts that God wants to
Speaker 1: give you because of Jesus. And in the New Testament
Speaker 1: they're over fifty over fifty. In fact, the word gift
Speaker 1: in gifts is you sixty six times in the New Testament.
Speaker 1: It's one of the major themes of the Bible today.
Speaker 1: I want us to just look at four four of
Speaker 1: the Christmas gifts God wants to give you when you
Speaker 1: receive the big gift of Jesus Christ. Now you've heard
Speaker 1: people say the phrase the spirit of Christmas is what giving. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the spirit of Christmas is giving. Well, I don't want
Speaker 1: to shock you, but that's wrong. It's wrong. The Spirit
Speaker 1: of Christmas is not giving. Yes, giving is a subset,
Speaker 1: it's an application, but the spirit of Christmas is not
Speaker 1: actually giving. The Spirit of Christmas is actually receiving God's
Speaker 1: gift to you. You don't have anything to give until
Speaker 1: you've been given what God gave to you, the very
Speaker 1: first Christmas gift. Christmas is all about receiving God's gifts
Speaker 1: to you. So let's get right into it. Four things
Speaker 1: God wants to give you this Christmas. Number one, when
Speaker 1: I accept Jesus Christ, the big gift. God so loved
Speaker 1: me that he gave his son. When I accept the
Speaker 1: big gift, God gives me number one a new identity.
Speaker 1: He gives me a new identity. Some of you will
Speaker 1: be able to relate to this letter, paster Rick. I
Speaker 1: feel that for my entire life I have been defined
Speaker 1: by other people. First, my mom constantlyted me to be
Speaker 1: something or someone she wanted me to be, but I
Speaker 1: had no interest in being. Sometimes my dad would join in,
Speaker 1: and the pressure to perform and to please and to
Speaker 1: gain their approval was overwhelming. I never felt validated growing
Speaker 1: up for who I really was. Then in school, I
Speaker 1: always felt pressured by my friends to fit in and
Speaker 1: to be cool and to do things I didn't want
Speaker 1: to do. It I didn't even like to do, and I
Speaker 1: wore a mask and pretended a lot most of my
Speaker 1: time through school. Then when I started dating, and later
Speaker 1: when I married my spouse, I felt their constant pressure
Speaker 1: to please them and the stuff my own feelings and
Speaker 1: my needs and to be who I wanted to be.
Speaker 1: I've worried so much my entire life about gaining the
Speaker 1: approval of others. I don't know who I am or
Speaker 1: what I'm supposed to be. That's an identity problem. That's
Speaker 1: an identity problem. Do you know what the fastest growing
Speaker 1: crime in the world is today? Identity theft? That's not
Speaker 1: very encouraging. But the truth is we've all had our
Speaker 1: identity stolen who you were made to be. Sometimes your
Speaker 1: identity is stolen by your parents, and they want you
Speaker 1: to be what they want you to be, not who
Speaker 1: God made you to be. Sometimes your identity is stolen
Speaker 1: by your friends, by your peers, by partners, by professionals.
Speaker 1: Sometimes your identity stolen by problem. Sometimes your identity is
Speaker 1: stolen by society, by culture, by the media that says
Speaker 1: you're supposed to act this way and look this way,
Speaker 1: and talk this way and smell this way, and if
Speaker 1: you don't do that, you're not cool, and you end
Speaker 1: up being pressured to conform to culture rather than being
Speaker 1: who God designed you to be. And you don't even
Speaker 1: know your true identity. Let me ask you a very
Speaker 1: personal question. Where do you get your identity on? Who
Speaker 1: you think you are? Where you on? What do you
Speaker 1: base who you think you are? Most people get their
Speaker 1: identity from one of three things. From their work, from
Speaker 1: their relationships, or from things from work. They say to
Speaker 1: my people, who are you? What are you? They'll say,
Speaker 1: I'm an accountant, I'm a plumber, I'm a truck driver,
Speaker 1: I'm a homemaker, whatever. No, that's what you do. That's
Speaker 1: not who you are. That's not your identity. Some people
Speaker 1: try to get their identity from relationships. I'm a mother,
Speaker 1: I'm a dad, I'm a father, I'm a husband, I'm
Speaker 1: an uncle, I'm a grandparent, I'm a boss. Some people
Speaker 1: try to find their identity through what they have. This
Speaker 1: is my house, this is my bank account. These are
Speaker 1: the things that I collect, and I find my identity
Speaker 1: and my hobby. Let me give you some very important
Speaker 1: advice as a pastor who loves you and who cares
Speaker 1: about you. Never, never, ever, ever base your identity on
Speaker 1: something you can lose. Never. If you build your identity
Speaker 1: around your husband and he dies and you live for
Speaker 1: thirty years longer, what's your identity? If you build your
Speaker 1: identity on your career, are on your job, and you
Speaker 1: lose your job, you get fired, you get laid off.
Speaker 1: What's your identity? If you build your identity on your
Speaker 1: home and your things and it goes into foreclosure, Or
Speaker 1: you build your identity on your wealth and your stock
Speaker 1: portfolio goes upside down, or you build your identity on
Speaker 1: how good looking you are. Beauty fades. Anybody, don't want
Speaker 1: to give a testimony on that. I know guys who
Speaker 1: in high school built their entire identity on their athletic ability.
Speaker 1: They're called jocks, and now they're just jokes because they've
Speaker 1: lost that ability. They can't catch that ball the way
Speaker 1: they used to catch it. If you build your identity
Speaker 1: on something that can be taken from you, you're going
Speaker 1: to lose your idea. It's not your true identity. What
Speaker 1: am I saying. The only thing that cannot be taken
Speaker 1: away from you is this God's unconditional love for you.
Speaker 1: And so if you want to have your true identity
Speaker 1: and your new identity and your permanent identity, you must
Speaker 1: receive it from God and build it on the fact
Speaker 1: that you are loved by God unconditionally, and nobody can
Speaker 1: take that from you. Here's what the Bible says tewod Corinthians,
Speaker 1: chapter five. When someone accepts Christ, that's the big gift.
Speaker 1: I accept the big gift. God so loved the world
Speaker 1: that he gave his son. When someone accepts Christ, he
Speaker 1: becomes a brand new person inside circle. That brand new person,
Speaker 1: new identity. He's not the same anymore. A new life
Speaker 1: has begun. Jesus called it being born again. He says,
Speaker 1: it's like getting a fresh start, it's like starting over.
Speaker 1: It's like not turn over new leaf. You get a
Speaker 1: whole new life, he says. When you accept the big
Speaker 1: gift of Christmas, God's love for you, God's son, he says,
Speaker 1: you get a whole new idea. And what does it mean.
Speaker 1: Does that mean that now you're perfect, That now you
Speaker 1: never sin, that now you never struggle? Of course not.
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that at all. It just means you're
Speaker 1: not identified with your sin, You're not identified with your struggle,
Speaker 1: you're not identified with your past. You have a new identity.
Speaker 1: I'm a child of God. It's new, it's true, and
Speaker 1: it's permanent. You see. One of the biggest mistakes people
Speaker 1: make is they let their failures define them. They let
Speaker 1: their fears define them, They let their faults define them.
Speaker 1: They let their sins and their struggles define them. This
Speaker 1: is why I love Celebrate Recovery. Our recovery program started
Speaker 1: here at Saddleback and now using tens of thousands of churches.
Speaker 1: At Celebrate Recovery, we say this, people will I'm in.
Speaker 1: They'll stand up and they'll say Hi, my name's Bill,
Speaker 1: and I am a child of God who struggles with alcohol.
Speaker 1: You are not your sin. You are not your struggle.
Speaker 1: You are not your weakness. Your illness is not your identity.
Speaker 1: Your chemistry is not your character, your sin is not yourself.
Speaker 1: You are a child of God. That's a new identity.
Speaker 1: And God says that gives you a whole different position
Speaker 1: to come from. He says, when you accept God's Christmas
Speaker 1: gift Jesus, God so loved the world that he gave
Speaker 1: his son, he says, the first thing you get is
Speaker 1: a new identity. By the way, do you know what
Speaker 1: the ceremony is called when we publicly identify that we
Speaker 1: have a new identity, Do you know what that ceremony
Speaker 1: is called? Baptism? Baptism says, I got a new id
Speaker 1: I'm not the same woman I used to be. I'm
Speaker 1: not the same man I used to be. And so
Speaker 1: when we take a person and we put them under
Speaker 1: the water, just like Jesus was, is a symbol of
Speaker 1: a burial and a resurrection. I've died to my old
Speaker 1: way of living and I'm a new person. I got
Speaker 1: a new idea. I'm not the same woman I used
Speaker 1: to be. I'm not the same man I used to be.
Speaker 1: I still make mistakes, I still blow it, but I
Speaker 1: got a new identity. I am forgiven and loved by God.
Speaker 1: Have you been baptized? If you haven't, I would encourage
Speaker 1: you to do so. Now. The starting point of a
Speaker 1: new identity is this. You got to stop seeing yourself
Speaker 1: the way everybody else sees you, and you got to
Speaker 1: start seeing yourself the way God sees you. You got to
Speaker 1: stop listening to the lives of the world, and you've
Speaker 1: got to start listening to the truth of God, what
Speaker 1: God says about you. You see, you don't know your
Speaker 1: true identity. Your parents don't even know your true identity.
Speaker 1: The only person who knows your true identity is God,
Speaker 1: who made you the creator. He knows what he made
Speaker 1: you to be. And you got to stop listening to
Speaker 1: the lives the world says this to you. If you're
Speaker 1: not the most beautiful, you don't matter. If you're not
Speaker 1: the most educated, you don't matter. If you're not the
Speaker 1: most talented, if you're not the most athletic, you don't matter.
Speaker 1: If you don't get straight a's, you don't matter. If
Speaker 1: you're not the most famous, you don't matter, which means
Speaker 1: ninety nine point nine percent of us don't matter. That's
Speaker 1: what the world says, because there aren't enough superstars in
Speaker 1: the world. And all growing up you heard lies, people
Speaker 1: saying you're never gonna amount to anything. Who do you
Speaker 1: think you are? Why would you try that? Why can't
Speaker 1: you be like your brother? You're worthless, you're too old,
Speaker 1: you're too young, you're too fat, you're too ugly, you
Speaker 1: don't have the talent, and on and on and on.
Speaker 1: You've heard these voices over and over and over. You
Speaker 1: need to get your ID from God. God says you
Speaker 1: are valuable. God says you are lovable. God says you
Speaker 1: are forgivable for the things you've done wrong. God says
Speaker 1: you are capable. He's given you talents. God says you
Speaker 1: are usable. God says you are blessable. You need to
Speaker 1: listen to what God says. Here's what Jesus said in
Speaker 1: John chapter eight. He said, if you follow my words,
Speaker 1: you will know the truth, and the truth will what
Speaker 1: set you free. Everybody in America knows the last part
Speaker 1: of that phrase, the truth will set you free. Almost
Speaker 1: nobody in America knows the first part of the sentence,
Speaker 1: which says, if you listen to me, says Jesus. If
Speaker 1: you follow my words, then you're gonna know the truth,
Speaker 1: and then the truth will sauch you free truth. You're
Speaker 1: not gonna learn truth from television. You're not gonna learn
Speaker 1: truth from magazines. You're gonna learn truth from your friends.
Speaker 1: They don't know the truth about you. God knows the
Speaker 1: truth about you, but you're not gonna know it until
Speaker 1: you get a new idea, and that comes in the
Speaker 1: big package of Jesus Christ. So the first thing I
Speaker 1: need for transformation is the truth new identity. But then
Speaker 1: I need more than that. I need power to change.
Speaker 1: And that's the second gift God asked for you. And
Speaker 1: that is God gives me a new ability, not just
Speaker 1: a new identity. God gives me a new ability. He
Speaker 1: gives me a new power, a new energy, a new strength,
Speaker 1: a new capacity. See, I'm not just depending on willpower
Speaker 1: anymore to change. You have tried to change things in
Speaker 1: your life so many times and it doesn't work. And
Speaker 1: you have set New Year's gold and they last about
Speaker 1: a week, maybe a month, may at the most three months.
Speaker 1: Why because willpower doesn't work. You eventually get tired of
Speaker 1: doing what you're trying to do and you give up.
Speaker 1: You don't need willpower, you need God power. And God says,
Speaker 1: I'm going to give you a new ability, and it's
Speaker 1: a new ability inside of you. I'm going to not
Speaker 1: just be around you. I'm going to put my spirit
Speaker 1: inside you. Look at this verse. The Bible says in
Speaker 1: Romans chapter five, God has poured out his love. I've
Speaker 1: noticed it's all about love. God has poured out his
Speaker 1: love into our hearts by means of the Holy Spirit.
Speaker 1: Who is God's gift to you. Circle God's gift to you.
Speaker 1: God's Spirit is his second gift. He says, I'm not
Speaker 1: only going to help you. I'm not only going to
Speaker 1: be around you. I'm not only going to be with you.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to be working on you. I'm going
Speaker 1: to be working in you. I'm going to put my
Speaker 1: spirit inside of you. That's what happens when you receive
Speaker 1: the gift of God's Christmas gift Jesus Christ. I'm going
Speaker 1: to put God's spirit in you. The next verse is
Speaker 1: this in the Bible. Now now that you have God's
Speaker 1: Spirit in you, Now, God works in you now, just
Speaker 1: with you, for you and around you, in you by
Speaker 1: giving you both the desire and the ability to fulfill
Speaker 1: His good purpose for you. You know what the problem
Speaker 1: is with you and with me. We know the right
Speaker 1: things to do. We know the changes we want to
Speaker 1: make in our lives. We know how we'd like to
Speaker 1: be different at the end of this year. We have
Speaker 1: the desire to improve our lives. Everybody does has a
Speaker 1: desire to improve their lives. We have the desire, we
Speaker 1: don't have the ability. And yet God says, I'm going
Speaker 1: to give you the desire and the ability to do
Speaker 1: my purpose for your life. And how am I going
Speaker 1: to get it? By putting my spirit inside of you.
Speaker 1: God gives you the power to start over when you've
Speaker 1: blown it. God gives you the power to make changes
Speaker 1: you can't change. God gives you the ability you need,
Speaker 1: and God gives you the power to keep going. It's
Speaker 1: about god power, not will power. What you need is grace,
Speaker 1: not guilt. Guilt does not work. Anytime you try to
Speaker 1: change your life by guilt, it ain't gonna last because
Speaker 1: guilt doesn't last. So don't ever try to motivate yourself
Speaker 1: to change simply out of guilt. It doesn't work. You
Speaker 1: don't need guilt in your life. You need God's grace.
Speaker 1: That's the power to change. You don't need law and legalism,
Speaker 1: you need love. Love is what changes us. More on
Speaker 1: filled with God's love, the more power I have to change.
Speaker 1: Look at the next verse two Timothy one seven. For
Speaker 1: God does not give us a spirit of fear, but
Speaker 1: instead he fills us with power and love and self discipline.
Speaker 1: Circle those three things, power, love, and self discipline. Would
Speaker 1: you like more power yes? More love yes, more self
Speaker 1: discipline yes. Then you need to get God's spirit in
Speaker 1: your life inside you. God says, I don't fill you
Speaker 1: with a spirit of fear. I give you the three
Speaker 1: ingredients you have to have to transform your life. If
Speaker 1: you want to change your life this next year, you're
Speaker 1: gonna need truth. That's a new identity about you. You're
Speaker 1: gonna need power. That's a new ability that God gives you,
Speaker 1: and you're gonna need The third thing is you're gonna
Speaker 1: need support. That's love. You're gonna need love, love and support.
Speaker 1: And so that's the third gift God gives you. God says,
Speaker 1: I want to give you a new identity, a new ability,
Speaker 1: a number three. I want to give you a new community.
Speaker 1: This is the third gift wrapped up in the big
Speaker 1: box of Jesus, a new community. God says, I'm going
Speaker 1: to give you a family, a spiritual family to support
Speaker 1: you in doing the right thing. You see, you weren't
Speaker 1: meant to go through life all alone. You never were.
Speaker 1: You were meant to know God, and you were meant
Speaker 1: to have a family around you that supports you. We
Speaker 1: always change better in a group than we do on
Speaker 1: our own. So why most diets and most personal self
Speaker 1: health plans don't work Because it's all about you and
Speaker 1: you don't have any spiritual family to support you. The
Speaker 1: Bible says God created an entire universe because he wanted
Speaker 1: a family. Look at this verse Ephesians, chapter one. The
Speaker 1: Bible says, because of his love. Remember, it all comes
Speaker 1: back to God's love. God so loved that he gave
Speaker 1: because of his love. God's unchanging plan has always been
Speaker 1: to adopt us into his own family by bringing us
Speaker 1: to himself through Jesus Christ. Now, once you circle the
Speaker 1: word adopt, you're not automatically in God's family. You have
Speaker 1: to be adopted into it. And how does he adopt us?
Speaker 1: Circle through Jesus Christ. That's how he adopts us through
Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, God says, I don't want you to just
Speaker 1: believe in me, I want you to belong to my family.
Speaker 2: Thanks so much for listening to Pastor Rick's Daily Hope.
Speaker 2: You know your prayers and financial support have a huge
Speaker 2: impact on millions of people here and around the world,
Speaker 2: so we really appreciate that. Thank you. And now Rick's
Speaker 2: going to share a letter from one of our listeners
Speaker 2: who says Daily Hope is making a real difference in
Speaker 2: their life.
Speaker 1: Today, I want to share with you a letter from
Speaker 1: Debbie that really truly touched my heart. She wrote, Pastor Rick,
Speaker 1: I'm not sure how many times I thought about emailing you,
Speaker 1: but I didn't. I'm not sure why, but today I
Speaker 1: listened to your Daily Hope message on facing giants and
Speaker 1: life and work, and I knew that I needed to
Speaker 1: say thank you. My story started with my husband of
Speaker 1: almost torny four years died suddenly at our home of
Speaker 1: a blood clot He was just forty nine years old,
Speaker 1: and my daughter was the one who called nine one one,
Speaker 1: and life just seemed to stop. We were in shock
Speaker 1: after that death. At the funeral, my brother told me
Speaker 1: about your message series. How to get through what you're
Speaker 1: going through. So I listened and I held on to
Speaker 1: those words and what Kay had spoken, not knowing how
Speaker 1: significant they would become. My old son had been struggling
Speaker 1: with what we now think was undiagnosed bipolar disorder. He'd
Speaker 1: been struggling for about three years, and eleven weeks after
Speaker 1: my husband died, he took his life. Life stopped again.
Speaker 1: I have an incredible family and a group of friends,
Speaker 1: and they, along with my faith, got me and my
Speaker 1: daughter through things I never thought I could live through.
Speaker 1: But the resource that I kept turning to and listening
Speaker 1: to over and over again was your series How to
Speaker 1: Get Through what You're going through When you lost your son,
Speaker 1: You and Kay truly understood how I felt and how
Speaker 1: I still feel. We're part of a club that nobody
Speaker 1: wants to be a member of. Rick, I've learned so
Speaker 1: many things through this journey of grief, but the most
Speaker 1: important is that God keeps his promises and he does
Speaker 1: bring beauty out of ashes. So I want to thank
Speaker 1: you and Kay from the bottom of my heart for
Speaker 1: sharing your story and not wasting your pain. Even though
Speaker 1: we've never met, I feel as though we're friends where
Speaker 1: we are, and I ask God daily to help me
Speaker 1: use my pain to help others. I still struggle some
Speaker 1: days with guilt and grief, but I know that God
Speaker 1: is faithful with me every step of the journey. With
Speaker 1: a thankful heart. Debbi, Well, Debbie, my dear sir. This
Speaker 1: touched me obviously your message and as somebody who's walked
Speaker 1: in your shoes having lost the sun, I can tell
Speaker 1: you without a doubt that God is faithful. And I
Speaker 1: just want to say that I'm so proud of you
Speaker 1: that God does not want us to waste our hurts.
Speaker 1: Never waste a hurt. You're going to go through the pain,
Speaker 1: so you may as well use it to help other people.
Speaker 1: And in Second Corinthians one, the Bible says God takes
Speaker 1: us through problems and comforts us, so we can then
Speaker 1: comfort others with the same comfort we've been given. And
Speaker 1: that's the motivation behind everything we do at Daily Hope. Friends,
Speaker 1: if you can give a gift to help Daily Hope,
Speaker 1: you can help people like Debbie who's walking through the
Speaker 1: grief of having lost a husband and a son, but
Speaker 1: found new hope through this broadcast, which shares the message
Speaker 1: of Jesus. You who gave helped Debbi find healing, and
Speaker 1: you who gave, have helped thousands and thousands of other
Speaker 1: people find hope and healing in Christ because of your gift.
Speaker 1: So thank you for your gifts today, God bless you.
