1 00:00:01,199 --> 00:00:03,839 Speaker 1: Most of us eat every day, some of us too 2 00:00:03,919 --> 00:00:07,759 much because yesterday's food is not enough to supply energy 3 00:00:07,799 --> 00:00:11,560 for today's needs. Why then, do some of us expect 4 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:15,039 yesterday's portion of heavenly manna, the word of God to 5 00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:19,000 keep us through today's challenges. On this program, we are 6 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,879 going to change all of that. Let's experience God's words 7 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:25,920 today and receive the power we need to live healthy, 8 00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,839 vibrant lives.

Let's 33 00:01:46,079 --> 00:01:48,599 go ahead and pray, and then we will get underway. 34 00:01:49,079 --> 00:01:51,359 Father and Heaven. Thank you for giving us this new 35 00:01:51,439 --> 00:01:54,040 day and for loving us so much that you and 36 00:01:54,239 --> 00:02:00,599 trust the goal of reaching the planet for you to us. Father, 37 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:04,959 Please empower us today, help us to experience your love 38 00:02:05,079 --> 00:02:08,319 to the degree that we will reach as many people 39 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:12,400 around us as possible. In Jesus name, I pray, Amen 40 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,360 and Amen again go into all the world. Now I 41 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:20,919 am going to read from Mark chapter sixteen. Something very 42 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,759 interesting to me. It has some interesting things that I 43 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,719 never noticed in the other Gospels. And I said, never noticed. 44 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,199 I may need to go back and look. But the 45 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:35,840 Bible reads here beginning at verse fourteen. Then he appeared 46 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:39,680 to the eleven themselves while they were eating. Now this 47 00:02:39,759 --> 00:02:42,879 is a detail, And I always say that when you 48 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:47,759 see a detail in the scriptures, whatever the detail is, 49 00:02:48,199 --> 00:02:51,120 you should pay attention to it, because sometimes it's a 50 00:02:51,159 --> 00:02:54,360 teaching tool. It's something that we can learn about ourselves, 51 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,960 something we can learn about God. And so I'm seeing eleven, 52 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,879 and I'm like, Lord, what happened to them? Twelve? What 53 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,960 happened to the twelve? And of course all of his 54 00:03:05,039 --> 00:03:08,680 disciples when Jesus was about to be crucified, they, as 55 00:03:08,719 --> 00:03:13,240 the Bible says, forsook him and fled. But one of them, 56 00:03:13,719 --> 00:03:17,280 the same one who Jesus said earlier, well one of 57 00:03:17,319 --> 00:03:21,560 you has a devil. Well, he never repented, and then 58 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:26,000 he he he what do they say on the internet? 59 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:31,000 Now he unalived himself because for some reason, the algorithm 60 00:03:31,439 --> 00:03:34,599 messes up the program. If you say it in real words, 61 00:03:34,759 --> 00:03:39,560 he unlived himself. Judas is no longer with us because 62 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,599 he turned his back on God, and in a hopeless, 63 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:48,240 weakened state, he decided that he was not going to 64 00:03:48,319 --> 00:03:51,680 be here anymore. And so now there are only eleven. 65 00:03:51,879 --> 00:03:54,599 There are only eleven, Thank God, there are eleven. But 66 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,719 but what happened to the twelve? And the Bible continues, 67 00:03:58,759 --> 00:04:02,759 and he rebuked the for their unbelief and hardness of heart. 68 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,680 So Jesus is still now. He is still at the moment, 69 00:04:07,719 --> 00:04:10,960 in the moments before he goes back to heaven. And 70 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,000 I'm exaggerating, he has some time left here, but he's 71 00:04:15,039 --> 00:04:18,560 still saying to his disciples, like, listen, there is so 72 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,279 much more that I can do through you. There was 73 00:04:21,399 --> 00:04:23,839 so much more I can do if you will just 74 00:04:23,959 --> 00:04:27,399 have faith and believe what I said to you. The 75 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,879 prophecies said that Jesus would come back, Messiah would come back. 76 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:36,120 The prophecy Jesus himself said, in real words, what would 77 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:42,720 exactly happen? And these people couldn't believe. God's people couldn't 78 00:04:42,759 --> 00:04:45,040 believe that he did exactly what he said he was 79 00:04:45,079 --> 00:04:47,600 going to do. And it wasn't even like a long 80 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,279 term prophecy, you know what I mean. Like, it wasn't 81 00:04:50,319 --> 00:04:53,079 a seventy weeks of years prophecy. It wasn't the twenty 82 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:57,399 three hundred days prophecy. It wasn't seventy years of captivity 83 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:02,439 told to Jeremiah and Daniel being distraught, wondering like, Okay, 84 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,319 I see the seventy years coming up, but something's weird here. 85 00:05:05,639 --> 00:05:09,600 Nothing is simple. On the third day, I'm going to 86 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,720 take my life back up. Because they had not believed 87 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,439 those who had seen him after he had risen. So 88 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,199 he rebukes them verse fifteen, and he said, unto them, 89 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,399 now you go into all the world and preach the 90 00:05:20,439 --> 00:05:23,240 Gospel to every creature. Now that you know I'm here, 91 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,279 Now that you know that my word is my bond, 92 00:05:26,399 --> 00:05:29,120 Now that you know that I have all power in 93 00:05:29,199 --> 00:05:32,759 my hands, Now that you know that the grave cannot 94 00:05:32,959 --> 00:05:36,839 keep me, that hell, grave and death are under my feet. 95 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:40,680 When I say I am empowering you, you can be 96 00:05:40,759 --> 00:05:44,199 sure that I will be with you, like I said. 97 00:05:44,199 --> 00:05:46,600 So he said, unto them, go ye into all the 98 00:05:46,639 --> 00:05:49,920 world and preach the Gospel to every creature. Don't leave 99 00:05:49,959 --> 00:05:54,160 anybody out. Don't discount anyone. Don't discount the gunman that 100 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,279 lives on your corner. Don't discount the woman who does 101 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,879 some things that you don't really eat and want to mention. 102 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,639 Don't discount the child or the youth that seems to 103 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,040 have gone so far astray that you can't reach him 104 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:12,519 or her. Do not withhold this truth from anyone. Do 105 00:06:12,639 --> 00:06:15,720 not withhold this power that I have given you, that 106 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,639 you have seen in living color, Do not withhold it 107 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:23,959 from anybody. Preach this to every creature verse sixteen. The 108 00:06:23,959 --> 00:06:29,399 one who believes and is baptized will be saved. But 109 00:06:29,439 --> 00:06:32,839 the one who does not believe will be condemned. Remember 110 00:06:32,879 --> 00:06:37,439 he rebuked them for their unbelief for him coming out 111 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,480 of the grave like he said he would, and they 112 00:06:39,519 --> 00:06:42,519 didn't believe. So if you continue in that kind of 113 00:06:42,519 --> 00:06:47,199 a state or worse, yeah, condemnation for those kinds of people. 114 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,800 But he's saying, if you are willing to go under 115 00:06:51,319 --> 00:06:56,240 the water symbolizing symbolizing that you are giving your life 116 00:06:56,399 --> 00:07:00,399 to God, symbolizing that you're dying to sin, and come 117 00:07:00,439 --> 00:07:03,399 back up out of the water in this baptism, just 118 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:07,079 like Jesus did, symbolizing the newness of life, you will 119 00:07:07,079 --> 00:07:10,480 be saved. Verse seventeen. These signs will accompany those who 120 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:14,000 believe in my name. They will drive out devils, they 121 00:07:14,079 --> 00:07:17,639 will speak in new tongues, they will pick up snakes 122 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,480 in their hands, and if they drink any deadly poison, 123 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,839 it will not harm them. Now, this is not an 124 00:07:23,879 --> 00:07:27,800 invitation to go mess around with snakes. It's just like 125 00:07:27,959 --> 00:07:30,519 in the Book of Acts, the Book of Acts where 126 00:07:30,519 --> 00:07:34,040 we see in chapter twenty eight where it happened that 127 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:38,120 Paul got caught while he was bundling sticks and laying 128 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,959 them on a fire and a snake got them, and 129 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,519 the snake had held on to him, and the people like, okay, 130 00:07:44,519 --> 00:07:47,079 he's dead now. But then of course he didn't die 131 00:07:47,279 --> 00:07:50,560 because God chose to protect him in that instance. And 132 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,000 then of course they're wondering, like is he a god? 133 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,279 Like who is this dude that can be bitten by 134 00:07:55,279 --> 00:07:58,079 a snake and nothing happened to him, And so God 135 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,879 is saying that there will be instance in where things 136 00:08:01,879 --> 00:08:07,079 that would normally harm us won't because God will protect us. Now, 137 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,959 there are times when he won't choose to protect us 138 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,920 on earth, but he said he would. And so we 139 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,120 saw an example of that again in Acts, chapter twenty eight. 140 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,399 And then it says here it will not harm them. 141 00:08:20,439 --> 00:08:23,279 They will lay their hands on the sick and they 142 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,199 will get well. And Jesus said he had spoken unto 143 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:32,440 them that he was after the Lord Jesus had spoken 144 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,240 to them, he was taken up into heaven and he 145 00:08:35,399 --> 00:08:39,159 sat at the right hand of God. He went back 146 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,000 to heaven and he sat at the right hand of God. 147 00:08:42,039 --> 00:08:45,279 Did you get that detail. After he had spoken to them, 148 00:08:45,759 --> 00:08:51,399 he went to the position of authority. After he had 149 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,399 spoken to them, he went to the place and assumed 150 00:08:55,399 --> 00:08:59,159 a position so that he could actually do what he 151 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,639 said he would do. He will protect you. Now he's 152 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,559 demonstrating that he will be able to do it. He 153 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,600 will give you the kind of faith that you need 154 00:09:07,639 --> 00:09:11,360 to believe that he has power to deliver you from 155 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:17,240 your sins. Now he is visually physically demonstrating that authority. 156 00:09:17,399 --> 00:09:21,039 He's at the right hand of God. Yes, and so 157 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:25,279 the Bible continues. Then they went out and preached everywhere, 158 00:09:25,879 --> 00:09:29,240 while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the message 159 00:09:29,399 --> 00:09:33,960 by accompanying signs. Go into all the world and know 160 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,120 that when you go there, Jesus has the power the 161 00:09:37,159 --> 00:09:40,399 authority to do exactly what he said that he would do. 162 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,120 He will be with you always, even until the end 163 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:44,279 of the world. Peace. 164 00:09:45,039 --> 00:09:46,279 Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us listening. 165 00:09:46,399 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 2: Friends. 166 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 1: Always remember we cannot live by bread alone, but by 167 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,679 every word that comes from the mouth of God.
