25
00:01:50.760 --> 00:01:54.959
<v Speaker 1>If you're taken it before, take it again, it'll bless you. Luke,

26
00:01:56.560 --> 00:02:03.519
<v Speaker 1>Chapter six, verse seventeen. Actually, before we go there, I

27
00:02:03.599 --> 00:02:07.159
<v Speaker 1>did want to. Last week we were talking about the

28
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:11.919
<v Speaker 1>power twins faith and patience and how important it is

29
00:02:12.039 --> 00:02:21.960
<v Speaker 1>to exercise patience or endurance, steadfastness, perseverance. I think the

30
00:02:22.039 --> 00:02:27.400
<v Speaker 1>word patience in our Western thinking, in our English vocabulary,

31
00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:29.800
<v Speaker 1>we don't really we tend to think a lot of

32
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:32.520
<v Speaker 1>people tend to think of patience, well, I'm just gonna

33
00:02:32.520 --> 00:02:35.479
<v Speaker 1>wait and see what happens, and that's how they think

34
00:02:35.520 --> 00:02:38.560
<v Speaker 1>of patience. I'm just gonna wait and see what happens.

35
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:43.520
<v Speaker 1>But that's not Biblical patience. Bible patience is we looked

36
00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:50.039
<v Speaker 1>at it, who promenade to stand under to its energetic resistance.

37
00:02:51.919 --> 00:02:57.879
<v Speaker 1>It's the power of endurance without complaint. It's cheerful endurance,

38
00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:06.719
<v Speaker 1>it's steadfastness, perseverance, endurance. Bible says to faith and patience,

39
00:03:08.000 --> 00:03:14.240
<v Speaker 1>faith and patience, we inherit the promise. Hebrews says we

40
00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:17.199
<v Speaker 1>have need of patients, says we need to run our

41
00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:22.479
<v Speaker 1>race with patients, fight or fight with patience, endurance, steadfastness,

42
00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:26.240
<v Speaker 1>and again towards the end, I mentioned that, you know

43
00:03:26.240 --> 00:03:29.520
<v Speaker 1>a lot of times people think that patience comes out

44
00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:32.520
<v Speaker 1>of trials, which is a religious tradition of men that

45
00:03:32.719 --> 00:03:37.000
<v Speaker 1>is unscriptural, but many people believe it. They bought into it.

46
00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:40.479
<v Speaker 1>It's a clever lie of the devil to get us

47
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:45.199
<v Speaker 1>to somehow accept the trials as in some way instead

48
00:03:45.199 --> 00:03:49.280
<v Speaker 1>of resist them and fight them. And I just touched

49
00:03:49.319 --> 00:03:51.240
<v Speaker 1>on that. I did want to just add a couple

50
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:53.560
<v Speaker 1>things before move on. If you didn't get here, we

51
00:03:53.599 --> 00:03:55.840
<v Speaker 1>weren't here and didn't hear that message, I'd encourage you

52
00:03:55.879 --> 00:03:58.240
<v Speaker 1>to get it in the bookstore, listen to it online.

53
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:01.800
<v Speaker 1>The power to win faith and patience because when it

54
00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:06.520
<v Speaker 1>comes to healing, the force of patience and during steadfastness

55
00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:11.080
<v Speaker 1>is so critical. You're there on Luke six, hold your place,

56
00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:17.879
<v Speaker 1>or go to Romans fifteen. Romans fifteen, and we'll look

57
00:04:17.920 --> 00:04:20.199
<v Speaker 1>at this first. In the King James, and then in

58
00:04:20.319 --> 00:04:25.319
<v Speaker 1>the NIV brings it out. Well, there's many other translations.

59
00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:30.160
<v Speaker 1>That's the subtle change there that don't quite get in

60
00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:35.639
<v Speaker 1>the NIV. But I said that patience, of spiritual force

61
00:04:35.720 --> 00:04:39.920
<v Speaker 1>of patience doesn't come from trials. It comes from the

62
00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:44.600
<v Speaker 1>Word of God, from the Spirit of God, from God himself. Now,

63
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:49.079
<v Speaker 1>the religious thinking is, well, trials produce patients, and there's

64
00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:52.720
<v Speaker 1>no scripture that says that, the scripture that people have

65
00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:55.480
<v Speaker 1>twisted to say that, But when you really examine what

66
00:04:55.519 --> 00:04:59.920
<v Speaker 1>it's saying, it's not saying that. And I wanted to

67
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:02.759
<v Speaker 1>just highlight a couple of scriptures before we get into

68
00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:07.000
<v Speaker 1>tonight's lesson to buttress what I said last week that

69
00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:10.560
<v Speaker 1>patience comes from the Word of God. Look at Romans fifteen,

70
00:05:11.839 --> 00:05:17.079
<v Speaker 1>verse four. For whatever things were written in earlier times

71
00:05:17.199 --> 00:05:21.160
<v Speaker 1>or four time, were written for our learning that we

72
00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:27.480
<v Speaker 1>through patience and comfort of the scriptures. Notice that through

73
00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:32.399
<v Speaker 1>patients of the scriptures. If word patients is a word,

74
00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:37.040
<v Speaker 1>who pominatee through patients of the scriptures. Notice it doesn't

75
00:05:37.079 --> 00:05:40.800
<v Speaker 1>say that we through the patients that comes from trials

76
00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:45.279
<v Speaker 1>or the patients from trials. It doesn't say that says

77
00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:50.560
<v Speaker 1>patients of the scriptures might have hope. Look at it

78
00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:53.240
<v Speaker 1>in the NIV. We'll put that up on the screen

79
00:05:54.360 --> 00:05:58.360
<v Speaker 1>because it brings it out in a little clearer from the

80
00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:05.360
<v Speaker 1>King James Romans fifteen to four. The NIV for everything

81
00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:09.439
<v Speaker 1>that was written in the past was written to teach us. Notice,

82
00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:15.319
<v Speaker 1>so that through endurance and the encouragement of the scriptures,

83
00:06:16.920 --> 00:06:23.680
<v Speaker 1>the endurance, the patience, the steadfastness, the perseverance of the scriptures,

84
00:06:23.759 --> 00:06:28.519
<v Speaker 1>not of trials of the scriptures, we might have hope.

85
00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:30.279
<v Speaker 1>Then if you look at the next version and keep

86
00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:37.160
<v Speaker 1>it up an NIV verse five, May the God who

87
00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:45.160
<v Speaker 1>gives endurance, who promenade patience, steadfastness, perseverance, God gives it,

88
00:06:45.199 --> 00:06:54.319
<v Speaker 1>not trials. I mean again, if trials produced patience, endurance, steadfastness,

89
00:06:55.240 --> 00:07:00.519
<v Speaker 1>we should be praying for more trials. By want me

90
00:07:00.639 --> 00:07:02.600
<v Speaker 1>to pray to to have more trials, Stand up and

91
00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:06.720
<v Speaker 1>I'll pray with you right now. You have more trials. Again,

92
00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:11.480
<v Speaker 1>if trials produced steadfast and endurance, nobody would have need

93
00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:16.399
<v Speaker 1>of patience because anybody's had plenty of trials. Nowhere the

94
00:07:16.399 --> 00:07:19.240
<v Speaker 1>scriptures are that we told pray for trials so you

95
00:07:19.360 --> 00:07:24.279
<v Speaker 1>might have more patience no patience comes patience steadfastened and

96
00:07:24.360 --> 00:07:28.040
<v Speaker 1>comes from scriptures from the God of patience, the God

97
00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:32.680
<v Speaker 1>who gives endurance and encouragement, give your spirit of unity.

98
00:07:33.639 --> 00:07:37.079
<v Speaker 1>And on it goes Revelations three ten. As a matter

99
00:07:37.079 --> 00:07:40.279
<v Speaker 1>of fact, the word of God is referred to as

100
00:07:40.360 --> 00:07:45.360
<v Speaker 1>the Word of his patience, the word of his patience.

101
00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:48.680
<v Speaker 1>Now let's look at one more James, Chapter one. This

102
00:07:48.759 --> 00:07:55.199
<v Speaker 1>is a scripture that gets mangled by religious tradition many times,

103
00:07:55.199 --> 00:07:58.879
<v Speaker 1>and I don't have the adequate time to elaborate on it.

104
00:08:00.240 --> 00:08:04.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to touch on it just maybe we'll get

105
00:08:04.079 --> 00:08:05.920
<v Speaker 1>into it. We probably will get into this when we

106
00:08:06.079 --> 00:08:08.680
<v Speaker 1>look at roadblocks the healing in one of the future

107
00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:16.800
<v Speaker 1>healing sessions healing school sessions. But just notice James, Chapter one,

108
00:08:17.240 --> 00:08:23.800
<v Speaker 1>verse two. I'm in the king, James, my brethren, count

109
00:08:23.839 --> 00:08:29.360
<v Speaker 1>it all joy when you fall into diverse temptations or

110
00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:35.600
<v Speaker 1>test trials. In fact, my Bible updates certain phrases, and

111
00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:37.639
<v Speaker 1>it's got count it all joy when you fall into

112
00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:42.759
<v Speaker 1>various trials. Knowing this that the trying or the testing

113
00:08:42.799 --> 00:08:47.159
<v Speaker 1>of your faith worketh patients. But let patients have a

114
00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:53.879
<v Speaker 1>perfect work, that you may be perfect and entire wanting nothing. Now,

115
00:08:55.240 --> 00:09:01.639
<v Speaker 1>here's how tradition reads this. Verse two, here's how the

116
00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:06.879
<v Speaker 1>traditions of men read it, My brethren, it is a

117
00:09:07.080 --> 00:09:12.799
<v Speaker 1>joy when God leads you into temptations, tests and trials.

118
00:09:14.480 --> 00:09:19.840
<v Speaker 1>It is a joy when God allows and brings temptations,

119
00:09:19.879 --> 00:09:22.480
<v Speaker 1>tests and trials into your life. It doesn't say that

120
00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:27.080
<v Speaker 1>James wasn't a masochist. He didn't say, oh, it's just

121
00:09:27.360 --> 00:09:31.440
<v Speaker 1>it's such a joy to have temptations, tests and trials.

122
00:09:32.799 --> 00:09:35.360
<v Speaker 1>But that's how tradition reads it, and it is a joy.

123
00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:38.720
<v Speaker 1>In fact, they tell you, oh, just rejoice when the

124
00:09:38.759 --> 00:09:40.679
<v Speaker 1>devil's beating over the head and you're going through all

125
00:09:40.759 --> 00:09:44.799
<v Speaker 1>kinds of hard times, just rejoice. And it's not a joy.

126
00:09:46.039 --> 00:09:49.919
<v Speaker 1>You're laying in a hospital sick, that's not a joy.

127
00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:54.039
<v Speaker 1>You just survived the car accident, Well you can be

128
00:09:54.200 --> 00:09:56.279
<v Speaker 1>happy you survived it, but it's not a joy to

129
00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:59.440
<v Speaker 1>be in one and on and on. It doesn't say

130
00:09:59.480 --> 00:10:03.840
<v Speaker 1>it is a It says count it a joy. The

131
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:06.559
<v Speaker 1>word count is a Greek word which means to lead

132
00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:10.440
<v Speaker 1>before the mind, or to consider or to esteem. It

133
00:10:10.480 --> 00:10:12.840
<v Speaker 1>says it's It doesn't say it is a joy, but

134
00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:16.080
<v Speaker 1>for the sake of the force of praise and joy.

135
00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:19.480
<v Speaker 1>Consider it a joy. Say no, I'm going to rejoice

136
00:10:19.480 --> 00:10:21.840
<v Speaker 1>in this. I'm going to praise God for the victory

137
00:10:21.840 --> 00:10:24.519
<v Speaker 1>in this. Say it's in the ear of sickness or disease,

138
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:27.480
<v Speaker 1>that's not the joy. But consider it a joy. Begin

139
00:10:27.559 --> 00:10:29.840
<v Speaker 1>to say, Lord, I praise you for my healing. I

140
00:10:29.879 --> 00:10:33.039
<v Speaker 1>thank you by your stripes. I'm healed. I'm considering this

141
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:36.679
<v Speaker 1>a joy that I can come through this trial victorious.

142
00:10:37.039 --> 00:10:40.200
<v Speaker 1>I can overcome it. And notice it doesn't say when

143
00:10:40.240 --> 00:10:43.080
<v Speaker 1>God puts it on you were God allows it into

144
00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:48.159
<v Speaker 1>your life for some sovereign, unknown reason. When you fall,

145
00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:52.399
<v Speaker 1>when you fall, not God leads you when you fall,

146
00:10:53.080 --> 00:10:56.759
<v Speaker 1>when you fall in the diverse temptation, tests and trials,

147
00:10:56.960 --> 00:11:00.440
<v Speaker 1>go ahead and get the force of joy working, because

148
00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:05.000
<v Speaker 1>the joy of the Lord is your strength, and the

149
00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:11.720
<v Speaker 1>word temptations also means tests and trials Verse three. Knowing this,

150
00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:19.679
<v Speaker 1>we can counted a joy. Knowing this that the trying

151
00:11:19.720 --> 00:11:25.200
<v Speaker 1>of your faith worketh patience. Now, notice what it does

152
00:11:25.279 --> 00:11:30.799
<v Speaker 1>not say the trying of your faith produces patience. Now,

153
00:11:30.799 --> 00:11:34.559
<v Speaker 1>if you've got translation that says that it's wrong, I've

154
00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:38.279
<v Speaker 1>studied it out into Greek. That word worketh does not

155
00:11:38.399 --> 00:11:42.960
<v Speaker 1>mean produce. If it does, we got a major problem

156
00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:47.759
<v Speaker 1>because in Philippians two twelve, the same Greek word translated

157
00:11:47.799 --> 00:11:53.320
<v Speaker 1>worketh is rendered work out your own salvation with fear

158
00:11:53.360 --> 00:11:57.080
<v Speaker 1>and trembling, work out your own salvation with fear. And

159
00:11:57.519 --> 00:12:00.559
<v Speaker 1>so if the word worketh here means you know what

160
00:12:00.600 --> 00:12:05.759
<v Speaker 1>that's saying, produce your own salvation, we got a problem

161
00:12:05.799 --> 00:12:11.240
<v Speaker 1>now because we're saved by grace, not through works, say

162
00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:16.279
<v Speaker 1>by faith. So if that word works means produced, and

163
00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:19.399
<v Speaker 1>it says produce your the same word and Flippings two twelve,

164
00:12:19.600 --> 00:12:22.399
<v Speaker 1>it would have to say produce your own salvation. No,

165
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:26.080
<v Speaker 1>it's translated properly there it says worked out. What this

166
00:12:26.279 --> 00:12:29.559
<v Speaker 1>is saying, knowing that the trying of your faith works

167
00:12:29.639 --> 00:12:34.960
<v Speaker 1>out patience. When we go through trials, test temptations, it

168
00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:39.399
<v Speaker 1>works out the patience that has been worked in by

169
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:43.600
<v Speaker 1>the scriptures and the God of patience. Assuming we've done

170
00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:47.360
<v Speaker 1>our work, assuming we've gotten into the word of God,

171
00:12:47.840 --> 00:12:50.799
<v Speaker 1>assuming we've spent time with God and he's we've allowed

172
00:12:50.879 --> 00:12:55.039
<v Speaker 1>him to work patience who prominade into us, then we

173
00:12:55.200 --> 00:12:59.679
<v Speaker 1>encounter a trial, and that spiritual force of patience endurance

174
00:13:00.080 --> 00:13:04.519
<v Speaker 1>head fastness, perseverance rises up and it goes to work.

175
00:13:05.840 --> 00:13:09.039
<v Speaker 1>Now what happens when it goes to work? Verse four?

176
00:13:14.279 --> 00:13:18.799
<v Speaker 1>But let patience have her perfect work. Let it go

177
00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:21.639
<v Speaker 1>ahead and work. And what will be the end result

178
00:13:21.840 --> 00:13:26.039
<v Speaker 1>is you let at endurance, steadfastness, perseverance, at who Pomenae

179
00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:31.480
<v Speaker 1>have her perfect work. You will be perfect and entire,

180
00:13:32.159 --> 00:13:40.799
<v Speaker 1>wanting nothing? Whoa wanting nothing? It'll get you out of

181
00:13:40.840 --> 00:13:44.559
<v Speaker 1>the trial. How do I know that? Because if the

182
00:13:44.759 --> 00:13:47.200
<v Speaker 1>patience and the faith won't get you out of the trial,

183
00:13:47.480 --> 00:13:50.240
<v Speaker 1>you'd still be wanting something. You'd be wanting out of

184
00:13:50.240 --> 00:13:55.120
<v Speaker 1>the trial. But you're wanting nothing now because patience and

185
00:13:55.240 --> 00:14:00.679
<v Speaker 1>endurance Pomenae has had her perfect work. And now you

186
00:14:00.759 --> 00:14:04.759
<v Speaker 1>are perfect and entire. You've come through the trial victoriously,

187
00:14:05.279 --> 00:14:08.919
<v Speaker 1>faith and patience inherited the promise, and you want nothing.

188
00:14:09.919 --> 00:14:16.799
<v Speaker 1>Glory to God, hallelujah. Now I've never seen this before

189
00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:20.759
<v Speaker 1>until this week. I was doing some is in my

190
00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:23.120
<v Speaker 1>morning devotions and I was doing some reading and this

191
00:14:23.279 --> 00:14:25.759
<v Speaker 1>just dropped into me and I thought, oh, there's more

192
00:14:25.840 --> 00:14:30.519
<v Speaker 1>light on that passage. Notice if the trials were the

193
00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:34.919
<v Speaker 1>ones that were good for us, like people say, oh,

194
00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:37.480
<v Speaker 1>the trials are good. I mean, I've read authors of

195
00:14:37.559 --> 00:14:40.000
<v Speaker 1>best selling books say it. I've heard them say it

196
00:14:40.039 --> 00:14:44.799
<v Speaker 1>on Christian television. It's everywhere almost that the trials somehow

197
00:14:44.840 --> 00:14:47.639
<v Speaker 1>are good for us. We don't fully understand. But God

198
00:14:47.679 --> 00:14:50.159
<v Speaker 1>brings it into our life, or God allows it, or

199
00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:54.120
<v Speaker 1>God has some unknown sovereign purpose because he's perfecting us

200
00:14:54.159 --> 00:14:57.039
<v Speaker 1>and producing character in us through the trials. No, that's

201
00:14:57.080 --> 00:15:01.759
<v Speaker 1>what the Word does, that's what the Spirit does. God

202
00:15:01.799 --> 00:15:06.240
<v Speaker 1>doesn't need the devil. The trials come, Jesus told us.

203
00:15:07.320 --> 00:15:11.879
<v Speaker 1>He said, the devil comes to steal the Word of God,

204
00:15:12.360 --> 00:15:16.720
<v Speaker 1>and trials and tribulation and pressure arises for the Word's sake.

205
00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:19.279
<v Speaker 1>The devil trying to get the Word out of our life.

206
00:15:19.480 --> 00:15:24.320
<v Speaker 1>Mark chapter four. Notice it's the trying of your faith.

207
00:15:25.879 --> 00:15:28.279
<v Speaker 1>You know what's really on trial. It's not you, it's

208
00:15:28.279 --> 00:15:32.279
<v Speaker 1>your faith. The devil's after your faith because if he

209
00:15:32.279 --> 00:15:36.200
<v Speaker 1>can get your faith, he can get you. Doesn't say

210
00:15:36.240 --> 00:15:38.679
<v Speaker 1>you're necessarily on trial, says the trying of your faith.

211
00:15:38.679 --> 00:15:42.200
<v Speaker 1>The devil's trying to steal your faith. But if it

212
00:15:42.320 --> 00:15:45.919
<v Speaker 1>was the trials that made us perfect and entire and

213
00:15:46.000 --> 00:15:49.480
<v Speaker 1>got us through, what knew what this would say? Let

214
00:15:49.519 --> 00:15:54.279
<v Speaker 1>the trials have their perfect work. I thought, I never

215
00:15:54.360 --> 00:15:57.279
<v Speaker 1>saw that before. That's what it would say. If it

216
00:15:57.360 --> 00:15:59.559
<v Speaker 1>was the trials that were producing all the good, it

217
00:15:59.600 --> 00:16:02.840
<v Speaker 1>would say, go ahead, let the trials have their perfect work.

218
00:16:03.080 --> 00:16:05.879
<v Speaker 1>That you may be perfect entire wanting nothing. But it

219
00:16:05.919 --> 00:16:09.639
<v Speaker 1>doesn't say that. You see how we read stuff into

220
00:16:09.679 --> 00:16:12.879
<v Speaker 1>the scriptures that isn't even there. People put on these

221
00:16:12.919 --> 00:16:16.159
<v Speaker 1>religious glasses and these traditions of men because so many

222
00:16:16.159 --> 00:16:20.240
<v Speaker 1>times they've been seminary trained with just more tradition and more.

223
00:16:21.480 --> 00:16:25.440
<v Speaker 1>You know, we had well, we had that video series

224
00:16:25.480 --> 00:16:28.080
<v Speaker 1>The God who Speaks, and that guy on the video

225
00:16:28.200 --> 00:16:32.399
<v Speaker 1>series said that, how did he say it? He said

226
00:16:32.440 --> 00:16:36.279
<v Speaker 1>it took him ten years to unlearn what he learned

227
00:16:36.279 --> 00:16:38.320
<v Speaker 1>in four years or something like that. And I told

228
00:16:38.360 --> 00:16:40.600
<v Speaker 1>you I had a guy that went through seminary. He said,

229
00:16:40.720 --> 00:16:43.080
<v Speaker 1>I had to unlearned ninety eight percent of what they

230
00:16:43.120 --> 00:16:49.399
<v Speaker 1>taught me. So it doesn't say the trials have their

231
00:16:49.440 --> 00:16:51.759
<v Speaker 1>perfect well, says let the patients the force of who

232
00:16:51.799 --> 00:16:56.159
<v Speaker 1>promenade have a perfect work. You'll be perfect entire wanting nothing.

233
00:16:57.080 --> 00:16:59.200
<v Speaker 1>And I'll just throw in one more nugget here and

234
00:16:59.200 --> 00:17:07.359
<v Speaker 1>we'll move on verse five. If any of you lack wisdom.

235
00:17:08.480 --> 00:17:11.880
<v Speaker 1>Let him ask of God that gives to all men liberally,

236
00:17:11.960 --> 00:17:14.680
<v Speaker 1>and a braid'sknot, and it shall be given him, and

237
00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:16.359
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna have time. But it goes on to say,

238
00:17:16.359 --> 00:17:19.359
<v Speaker 1>make sure you're asking faith without waving. Got it? When

239
00:17:19.400 --> 00:17:21.200
<v Speaker 1>you ask for wisdom in a situation, you got to

240
00:17:21.240 --> 00:17:24.440
<v Speaker 1>believe you receive, right, Then you can't waver and say, well,

241
00:17:24.480 --> 00:17:26.039
<v Speaker 1>I hope he gets it. He does. I hope I

242
00:17:26.079 --> 00:17:30.160
<v Speaker 1>know you say I believe I received wisdom. Now this

243
00:17:30.240 --> 00:17:32.599
<v Speaker 1>almost seems as you read this passage, you think, what

244
00:17:32.799 --> 00:17:35.480
<v Speaker 1>hits like he changed horses in midstream. It's like, why

245
00:17:35.480 --> 00:17:38.039
<v Speaker 1>do you start talking when he's talking about patience and

246
00:17:38.359 --> 00:17:39.839
<v Speaker 1>going to come through trials, and all of a sudden

247
00:17:39.839 --> 00:17:43.319
<v Speaker 1>he start talking about wisdom. Well, what he's talking about?

248
00:17:43.400 --> 00:17:46.319
<v Speaker 1>This word wisdom is a Greek word sophia, and what

249
00:17:46.519 --> 00:17:49.720
<v Speaker 1>w Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament word says, one

250
00:17:49.759 --> 00:17:53.880
<v Speaker 1>of the meanings of sophia is insight into the true

251
00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:57.759
<v Speaker 1>nature of a thing. When you're in a trial, sometimes

252
00:17:57.759 --> 00:18:02.359
<v Speaker 1>you're thinking, what is going on here? How did this happen?

253
00:18:02.440 --> 00:18:05.160
<v Speaker 1>How did this door get opened? How do I get

254
00:18:05.200 --> 00:18:08.160
<v Speaker 1>out of this mess? What do I need to do.

255
00:18:08.200 --> 00:18:13.319
<v Speaker 1>You need Sophia, You need wisdom, and he says, if

256
00:18:13.319 --> 00:18:17.279
<v Speaker 1>you lack that wisdom, that insight into the true nature

257
00:18:17.359 --> 00:18:20.799
<v Speaker 1>of what's going on, ask of God. The little Greek says,

258
00:18:20.839 --> 00:18:25.079
<v Speaker 1>Ask of the giving God, who gives you all men liberally,

259
00:18:25.119 --> 00:18:28.440
<v Speaker 1>and a braid's notot and it shall be given you.

260
00:18:30.640 --> 00:18:32.960
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes when you're in a trial, or sometimes when you're

261
00:18:33.000 --> 00:18:37.200
<v Speaker 1>dealing with sickness or disease or financial lack or something

262
00:18:37.279 --> 00:18:39.680
<v Speaker 1>like that, or things just he going wrong in your life,

263
00:18:40.359 --> 00:18:43.200
<v Speaker 1>instead of just trying to get an instantaneous healing, will

264
00:18:43.240 --> 00:18:47.240
<v Speaker 1>say say God, what's going on here? How's this getting in?

265
00:18:47.839 --> 00:18:51.119
<v Speaker 1>How's the door opened to the enemy, what's happening here?

266
00:18:51.839 --> 00:18:54.000
<v Speaker 1>It's good to pray, say, Lord, is there's something in

267
00:18:54.039 --> 00:18:56.839
<v Speaker 1>the natural that I need to do or stop doing?

268
00:18:57.240 --> 00:19:00.480
<v Speaker 1>Show me, because sometimes God can heal somebody just keep

269
00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:02.440
<v Speaker 1>doing the very thing that got him in that mess

270
00:19:02.440 --> 00:19:06.079
<v Speaker 1>in the first place. Like the classic illustration I give

271
00:19:06.160 --> 00:19:09.960
<v Speaker 1>the guy that smokes cigarettes and he's got a lung problem,

272
00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:12.440
<v Speaker 1>and he says, Oh, God, heal my lungs. If God

273
00:19:12.480 --> 00:19:15.680
<v Speaker 1>were to heal his lungs and he kept smoking, he'd

274
00:19:15.720 --> 00:19:24.960
<v Speaker 1>still have the problem. So we need wisdom, Sophia to

275
00:19:25.119 --> 00:19:29.720
<v Speaker 1>know what's going on sometimes. And if you don't get

276
00:19:29.759 --> 00:19:33.119
<v Speaker 1>anything when you ask, don't fret or fuss or try

277
00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:35.559
<v Speaker 1>and dig something up. Say Lord, I'm just trusting you

278
00:19:35.640 --> 00:19:38.319
<v Speaker 1>to show me if I'm missing it somewhere. I need

279
00:19:38.359 --> 00:19:40.839
<v Speaker 1>to know something Other than that, I'm just going to

280
00:19:40.920 --> 00:19:44.559
<v Speaker 1>keep standing. I'm going to keep believing. Don't get under condemnation.

281
00:19:44.680 --> 00:19:46.599
<v Speaker 1>Don't let the devil beach you over the head like, oh,

282
00:19:46.680 --> 00:19:49.359
<v Speaker 1>you must got some terrible sin in your life, and

283
00:19:50.200 --> 00:19:54.119
<v Speaker 1>you'll know it if you do. Don't try and manufacture something,

284
00:19:54.920 --> 00:19:57.839
<v Speaker 1>all right, So that's just about patience. Go back to

285
00:19:57.920 --> 00:20:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Luke's six. We now return to our regularly scheduled programming

286
00:20:04.279 --> 00:20:12.839
<v Speaker 1>Luke chapter six here and be healed. Hallelujah. We didn't

287
00:20:12.880 --> 00:20:15.039
<v Speaker 1>even start to read that, did well? Okay, that's good

288
00:20:15.960 --> 00:20:23.319
<v Speaker 1>Luke six seventeen. And he came down with them. Jesus

289
00:20:23.359 --> 00:20:25.960
<v Speaker 1>came down with them and stood in the plane and

290
00:20:26.039 --> 00:20:30.400
<v Speaker 1>the company of his disciples, and a great multitude of

291
00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:34.880
<v Speaker 1>people out of all Judea and Jerusalem, and from the

292
00:20:34.960 --> 00:20:39.240
<v Speaker 1>seacoast of Tire and Sidon. Now, notice a great multitude.

293
00:20:39.279 --> 00:20:44.440
<v Speaker 1>How many is a multitude? While scripture indicates a multitude

294
00:20:44.559 --> 00:20:48.680
<v Speaker 1>is about a thousand or more. How much would a

295
00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:56.160
<v Speaker 1>great multitude be. There's a lot of people, And notice

296
00:20:56.240 --> 00:21:02.960
<v Speaker 1>this great multitude came to hear him and to be

297
00:21:03.160 --> 00:21:09.240
<v Speaker 1>healed of their diseases. They came to hear and be healed,

298
00:21:10.160 --> 00:21:13.880
<v Speaker 1>To hear and be healed. Circle that or underline that

299
00:21:14.000 --> 00:21:21.079
<v Speaker 1>phrase here and be healed, Here and be healed. That's

300
00:21:21.160 --> 00:21:24.839
<v Speaker 1>the theme for tonight, the message title tonight, and the

301
00:21:24.839 --> 00:21:29.079
<v Speaker 1>theme for these next eight sessions of healing school. Here

302
00:21:29.160 --> 00:21:31.400
<v Speaker 1>and be healed. It's not some clever phrase that I

303
00:21:31.519 --> 00:21:34.519
<v Speaker 1>made up. It's right out of the word here and

304
00:21:34.599 --> 00:21:39.839
<v Speaker 1>be healed. Here and be healed. They came to hear

305
00:21:40.680 --> 00:21:47.200
<v Speaker 1>and be healed of their diseases, and they verse eighteen,

306
00:21:47.279 --> 00:21:52.440
<v Speaker 1>that were vexed with unclean spirits, and they were healed.

307
00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:58.319
<v Speaker 1>And the whole multitude sought to touch him, for there

308
00:21:58.440 --> 00:22:08.680
<v Speaker 1>went virtue or power out of him and healed them all.

309
00:22:10.640 --> 00:22:22.880
<v Speaker 1>That's Jesus, our healer, healing of all kinds. Notice in

310
00:22:23.039 --> 00:22:26.359
<v Speaker 1>verse seventeen, they came to be healed of their diseases.

311
00:22:26.680 --> 00:22:31.759
<v Speaker 1>Verse eighteen, those that were vexed with unclean spirits, So

312
00:22:31.799 --> 00:22:37.759
<v Speaker 1>that could be demonic oppression of any sort, or mental oppression.

313
00:22:39.839 --> 00:22:43.640
<v Speaker 1>Healing of all kinds, And it says verse nineteen, the

314
00:22:43.680 --> 00:22:46.759
<v Speaker 1>whole multitude sought to touch him. So who knows what

315
00:22:46.880 --> 00:22:49.319
<v Speaker 1>was in that whole multitude that they were dealing with,

316
00:22:49.480 --> 00:22:54.480
<v Speaker 1>And they were all healed. Healing of all kinds starts

317
00:22:55.240 --> 00:23:02.720
<v Speaker 1>with hearing. It starts with hearing. Now, most folk they

318
00:23:02.759 --> 00:23:05.559
<v Speaker 1>want to bypass the hearing and just go right to

319
00:23:05.599 --> 00:23:13.440
<v Speaker 1>the healing. Sometimes you don't need to be seeking the healing,

320
00:23:13.680 --> 00:23:18.039
<v Speaker 1>you need to be seeking the hearing. Why do I

321
00:23:18.079 --> 00:23:23.319
<v Speaker 1>say that Romans ten seventeen. What's it say? Faith comes

322
00:23:23.400 --> 00:23:32.359
<v Speaker 1>by hearing? How are we healed by faith? Remember? Jesus

323
00:23:32.359 --> 00:23:35.519
<v Speaker 1>said to the woman with the issue blood, woman, your faith,

324
00:23:35.599 --> 00:23:41.720
<v Speaker 1>not my faith, not my power, not my virtue. Woman,

325
00:23:42.200 --> 00:23:45.119
<v Speaker 1>your faith. Yes, virtue had gone out of Jesus. But

326
00:23:45.200 --> 00:23:48.039
<v Speaker 1>he didn't say, oh, it is my great virtue. Woman,

327
00:23:48.079 --> 00:23:50.400
<v Speaker 1>at your healed? He said, no, woman, it's your faith

328
00:23:51.119 --> 00:23:55.440
<v Speaker 1>that has made you whole. He said to the blind man,

329
00:23:55.759 --> 00:24:03.079
<v Speaker 1>according to your faith, be it unto you. Faith is

330
00:24:03.079 --> 00:24:08.119
<v Speaker 1>the substance of things hoped for. Jesus said, whatever you believe,

331
00:24:08.640 --> 00:24:12.160
<v Speaker 1>you shall receive. All things are possible to those who believe.

332
00:24:13.039 --> 00:24:16.279
<v Speaker 1>Why do we need to hear? Because faith Romans ten

333
00:24:16.440 --> 00:24:21.960
<v Speaker 1>seventeen comes by hearing and hearing the word of God.

334
00:24:24.240 --> 00:24:28.960
<v Speaker 1>Proverbs four twenty to twenty two. If we don't look

335
00:24:28.960 --> 00:24:31.359
<v Speaker 1>at tonight, we'll look at it next week, It says,

336
00:24:31.680 --> 00:24:35.599
<v Speaker 1>my son, my daughter, attend to my word. Incline your

337
00:24:35.759 --> 00:24:39.559
<v Speaker 1>ears to my sayings. Let them not depart from before

338
00:24:39.599 --> 00:24:42.440
<v Speaker 1>thine eyes. Keep them in the midst of thy heart.

339
00:24:42.839 --> 00:24:46.799
<v Speaker 1>For they my words are life to those who find

340
00:24:46.799 --> 00:24:52.079
<v Speaker 1>them in health Hebrew word healing, medicine, remedy, and cure

341
00:24:52.440 --> 00:24:59.799
<v Speaker 1>rapha to all their flesh. Now, everybody wants to get

342
00:24:59.799 --> 00:25:03.319
<v Speaker 1>to the healing of all their flesh. But prior to that,

343
00:25:03.400 --> 00:25:05.799
<v Speaker 1>it says, attend to his words. Incline your ears to

344
00:25:05.880 --> 00:25:08.079
<v Speaker 1>his sayings, that they're not depart from before your eyes.

345
00:25:08.279 --> 00:25:11.720
<v Speaker 1>Keep them in the midst of your heart. Here and

346
00:25:11.759 --> 00:25:20.000
<v Speaker 1>be healed. Here and be healed. Now, what's Psalm one o.

347
00:25:20.160 --> 00:25:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Seven twenty say he sent his word and it healed them?

348
00:25:27.480 --> 00:25:30.279
<v Speaker 1>How did the word heal them? Because faith comes by

349
00:25:30.359 --> 00:25:35.440
<v Speaker 1>hearing the word of God. Now, if we harken back,

350
00:25:35.519 --> 00:25:38.640
<v Speaker 1>hold your placer and go to Exodus fifteen. If we

351
00:25:38.759 --> 00:25:42.400
<v Speaker 1>harken back to the beginning of the healing covenant, this

352
00:25:42.599 --> 00:25:49.359
<v Speaker 1>great revelation of yahweh Rapha, which we've talked about in

353
00:25:49.480 --> 00:25:53.480
<v Speaker 1>teaching on the Names of God on Sunday mornings. But

354
00:25:53.559 --> 00:25:57.000
<v Speaker 1>we go back to this healing covenant that God established

355
00:25:57.640 --> 00:25:59.599
<v Speaker 1>not only with the children of Israel, but with you

356
00:25:59.720 --> 00:26:04.559
<v Speaker 1>and I as yahweh Rapha or jehovah Rafa. The Lord

357
00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:07.839
<v Speaker 1>your healer, the Lord your physician, the Lord your doctor.

358
00:26:08.680 --> 00:26:12.519
<v Speaker 1>Is what it literally means, the word rapha, the he

359
00:26:12.599 --> 00:26:16.319
<v Speaker 1>your healer, your physician, your doctor. If we harken back

360
00:26:16.359 --> 00:26:21.319
<v Speaker 1>to that, Notice what so many people just gloss right

361
00:26:21.400 --> 00:26:23.920
<v Speaker 1>over it in order to get to the latter part

362
00:26:23.960 --> 00:26:26.720
<v Speaker 1>of verse twenty six. I am the Lord of healthy.

363
00:26:27.519 --> 00:26:30.359
<v Speaker 1>You know, everybody just like pretty much glosses over everything

364
00:26:30.400 --> 00:26:32.400
<v Speaker 1>that comes before that. Just I want to get to

365
00:26:32.400 --> 00:26:34.519
<v Speaker 1>the part I am the Lord that heals me. Oh, yes,

366
00:26:34.599 --> 00:26:40.640
<v Speaker 1>Lord heal me. But notice is the Exodus fifteen twenty six,

367
00:26:43.680 --> 00:26:49.680
<v Speaker 1>and He and God said, if say if say it again,

368
00:26:49.759 --> 00:26:54.400
<v Speaker 1>if say it again, if you gotta circle that in

369
00:26:54.440 --> 00:27:04.920
<v Speaker 1>your bible, if you will diligence, hearken, say diligently, hearken, diligently,

370
00:27:05.039 --> 00:27:12.920
<v Speaker 1>hearken if you will diligently hearken to the voice here

371
00:27:13.119 --> 00:27:16.359
<v Speaker 1>and be healed. If you will diligently hearken to the

372
00:27:16.480 --> 00:27:21.599
<v Speaker 1>voice of the Lord your God Yahweh Elohem, and will

373
00:27:21.799 --> 00:27:26.079
<v Speaker 1>do that which is right in his sight, and will

374
00:27:26.400 --> 00:27:31.839
<v Speaker 1>give ear to his commandments and keep all his statutes.

375
00:27:32.200 --> 00:27:35.599
<v Speaker 1>I will put or Hebrew, I will allow none of

376
00:27:35.599 --> 00:27:39.599
<v Speaker 1>these diseases upon thee which I brought upon the Egyptians.

377
00:27:39.640 --> 00:27:42.160
<v Speaker 1>He brought them upon the Egyptians. They weren't his children,

378
00:27:42.160 --> 00:27:45.519
<v Speaker 1>they were his enemies, and it was judgment upon them.

379
00:27:45.759 --> 00:27:49.839
<v Speaker 1>But God's not doing that the children, he says, which

380
00:27:49.880 --> 00:27:53.599
<v Speaker 1>I've permitted to come upon the Egyptians and judgment for

381
00:27:53.920 --> 00:28:00.960
<v Speaker 1>I am Yahweh Rafa, the Lord that healeth thee He says,

382
00:28:01.599 --> 00:28:04.759
<v Speaker 1>I am your healer, I am your physician, I'm your doctor.

383
00:28:05.680 --> 00:28:08.839
<v Speaker 1>And he said, you will discover that and realize that

384
00:28:09.319 --> 00:28:15.960
<v Speaker 1>if if I don't like the if I don't want

385
00:28:15.960 --> 00:28:20.039
<v Speaker 1>there to be any responsibility on my part. I just

386
00:28:20.079 --> 00:28:22.680
<v Speaker 1>want God to do it. I don't want to have

387
00:28:22.759 --> 00:28:33.319
<v Speaker 1>to do anything. If if you will diligently hearken to

388
00:28:33.440 --> 00:28:36.559
<v Speaker 1>the voice of the Lord your God, and will do

389
00:28:36.720 --> 00:28:39.200
<v Speaker 1>that which is right in his sight. One way you

390
00:28:39.240 --> 00:28:43.759
<v Speaker 1>could look at this is one great promise and covenant

391
00:28:43.839 --> 00:28:47.720
<v Speaker 1>and two great conditions, hearing and doing, hearing and doing,

392
00:28:47.920 --> 00:28:50.640
<v Speaker 1>hearing and doing. Now we're going to break it down

393
00:28:50.680 --> 00:28:53.720
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more, but you'll notice it says, diligently

394
00:28:53.839 --> 00:28:56.960
<v Speaker 1>hearken and do and then give ear and keep. Those

395
00:28:57.039 --> 00:28:59.759
<v Speaker 1>could both fall under that same category. Hear and do,

396
00:29:00.200 --> 00:29:02.680
<v Speaker 1>here and do. He said, if you hear and do,

397
00:29:03.359 --> 00:29:08.160
<v Speaker 1>I will be yahweh rafa to you. That rhymes I'm

398
00:29:08.200 --> 00:29:11.599
<v Speaker 1>a poet and didn't know it. My feet are longfellows.

399
00:29:12.759 --> 00:29:19.920
<v Speaker 1>Here and do here and do here and do. Now,

400
00:29:20.039 --> 00:29:27.200
<v Speaker 1>notice he says, if you diligently hearken to the voice

401
00:29:27.240 --> 00:29:32.240
<v Speaker 1>of the Lord your God. No God wants us healed.

402
00:29:34.440 --> 00:29:38.240
<v Speaker 1>Healing is his will, Healing is his desire for his children.

403
00:29:40.680 --> 00:29:46.279
<v Speaker 1>Think about he's put healing in the body. You cut

404
00:29:46.319 --> 00:29:56.200
<v Speaker 1>your finger, even without exercising any faith, it heals. Why

405
00:29:56.279 --> 00:30:02.519
<v Speaker 1>is that he's put healing in the body. Your body

406
00:30:03.240 --> 00:30:08.279
<v Speaker 1>heals itself. I was ministering to somebody on the phone,

407
00:30:08.279 --> 00:30:10.559
<v Speaker 1>praying with them this week, and they said they got

408
00:30:10.599 --> 00:30:15.799
<v Speaker 1>disinfection and it's eaten away some of their jaw. And

409
00:30:15.839 --> 00:30:21.599
<v Speaker 1>they said, but the doctors say, God, you are something else.

410
00:30:21.799 --> 00:30:27.680
<v Speaker 1>The doctors say the jaw will actually re regenerate itself

411
00:30:27.720 --> 00:30:30.400
<v Speaker 1>and grow back out. They said about six months it'll

412
00:30:30.400 --> 00:30:40.599
<v Speaker 1>come back out. The Lord, you're amazing. But God wants

413
00:30:40.680 --> 00:30:45.039
<v Speaker 1>us healed. It's his will, it's his desire, and we

414
00:30:45.200 --> 00:30:54.079
<v Speaker 1>do things to hinder that, spiritually and naturally. Spiritually, doubt, fear, unbelief,

415
00:30:54.599 --> 00:30:59.400
<v Speaker 1>wrong confession, these kind of things. Naturally, not taking care

416
00:30:59.480 --> 00:31:03.880
<v Speaker 1>of ourselves, not getting enough rest, enough sleep, enough exercise,

417
00:31:04.000 --> 00:31:07.440
<v Speaker 1>enough fresh air, not eating right, putting junk in our bodies.

418
00:31:07.480 --> 00:31:10.880
<v Speaker 1>We do all these things to hinder the healing that

419
00:31:10.960 --> 00:31:15.400
<v Speaker 1>God wants us to walk in. You can argue with it,

420
00:31:15.480 --> 00:31:17.559
<v Speaker 1>you can debate about it, you can pooh pooh it,

421
00:31:17.839 --> 00:31:20.440
<v Speaker 1>you can mock me, you can say I'm off the wall,

422
00:31:20.799 --> 00:31:24.640
<v Speaker 1>but I'm standing on fact and you're standing on fiction

423
00:31:25.720 --> 00:31:29.920
<v Speaker 1>on wishing, because there's no truth to what you're thinking.

424
00:31:29.960 --> 00:31:34.640
<v Speaker 1>If you don't believe what I just said. Whatever man sows,

425
00:31:34.720 --> 00:31:38.720
<v Speaker 1>that's how he also reap. Don't be deceived. God is

426
00:31:38.839 --> 00:31:43.440
<v Speaker 1>not mocked. Whatever we sow, we reap. God has put

427
00:31:43.480 --> 00:31:47.039
<v Speaker 1>healing in the body. He's given us an amazing immune system,

428
00:31:47.559 --> 00:31:50.759
<v Speaker 1>and it should function a peak efficiency where it constantly

429
00:31:50.880 --> 00:31:53.960
<v Speaker 1>drives away sickness and disease. Why doesn't it because we

430
00:31:54.039 --> 00:32:02.000
<v Speaker 1>do things to hinder our immune system. Now, maybe you

431
00:32:02.039 --> 00:32:05.400
<v Speaker 1>know some people you know it just thero'ugh, no fault

432
00:32:05.400 --> 00:32:07.160
<v Speaker 1>of their own. They were born with it or something

433
00:32:07.240 --> 00:32:09.319
<v Speaker 1>like that, and thank God there is healing for that.

434
00:32:10.079 --> 00:32:15.079
<v Speaker 1>Don't get under condemnation. Just try and encourage us to

435
00:32:15.160 --> 00:32:19.839
<v Speaker 1>receive all that God has for us. Nothing is impossible

436
00:32:19.880 --> 00:32:27.440
<v Speaker 1>with God. Think about it, Nothing is impossible with God. Well,

437
00:32:27.519 --> 00:32:30.359
<v Speaker 1>somebody says, well, I just believe if God wants me healed,

438
00:32:30.359 --> 00:32:33.640
<v Speaker 1>I'll be healed. If God wants it, it'll just happen.

439
00:32:34.240 --> 00:32:38.240
<v Speaker 1>Why did Jesus then tell us to pray thy will

440
00:32:38.279 --> 00:32:42.440
<v Speaker 1>be done if his will is being done automatically. Why

441
00:32:42.519 --> 00:32:44.640
<v Speaker 1>would we need to pray your will be done on

442
00:32:44.680 --> 00:32:47.359
<v Speaker 1>earth as it is in heaven. If it's being done automatically,

443
00:32:47.599 --> 00:32:54.599
<v Speaker 1>that's a we're wasting our prayers praying that. No, it's

444
00:32:54.640 --> 00:32:57.799
<v Speaker 1>not being done automatically. Satan is the god of this world.

445
00:32:57.799 --> 00:33:02.319
<v Speaker 1>We're in a fallen world. So let's look at this

446
00:33:02.400 --> 00:33:06.920
<v Speaker 1>a little closer. Notice, he says diligently, hearken to the

447
00:33:07.039 --> 00:33:10.920
<v Speaker 1>voice of the Lord your God. This word diligently hearken

448
00:33:11.079 --> 00:33:16.640
<v Speaker 1>is actually two. It's actually a Hebrew word repeated twice.

449
00:33:17.039 --> 00:33:22.480
<v Speaker 1>It's like, remember that will keep him in perfect peace,

450
00:33:22.880 --> 00:33:26.759
<v Speaker 1>Shalom shalom. And the only way they could translate it

451
00:33:26.839 --> 00:33:31.279
<v Speaker 1>is how do you translate shalom shalom well perfect peace?

452
00:33:32.079 --> 00:33:37.640
<v Speaker 1>And this diligently hearken is one Hebrew word shama, which

453
00:33:37.680 --> 00:33:41.119
<v Speaker 1>means to hear, repeated twice, so it's if you will

454
00:33:41.519 --> 00:33:48.759
<v Speaker 1>shama shamah. This a word that's found about one thousand

455
00:33:48.759 --> 00:33:53.880
<v Speaker 1>and sixty times in the New Old Testament shmaha here,

456
00:33:54.720 --> 00:33:58.319
<v Speaker 1>and it means, according to Hebrew dictionaries, we'll have it

457
00:33:58.359 --> 00:34:01.559
<v Speaker 1>on the screen here. It means to you here intelligently,

458
00:34:02.839 --> 00:34:08.280
<v Speaker 1>with the implication of attention and obedience. See it's not

459
00:34:08.400 --> 00:34:11.039
<v Speaker 1>just hearing it goes in one ear and out the other.

460
00:34:11.880 --> 00:34:19.119
<v Speaker 1>It's hearing intelligently with attention and obedience. In the Hebrew thought,

461
00:34:19.639 --> 00:34:24.199
<v Speaker 1>if you don't obey, you didn it here, just like

462
00:34:24.280 --> 00:34:28.320
<v Speaker 1>a parent's thought if your kids don't obey, they did

463
00:34:28.480 --> 00:34:34.800
<v Speaker 1>it here. Kurt. If you say to Mason to go

464
00:34:34.880 --> 00:34:38.519
<v Speaker 1>do something, and then an hour later you say, well,

465
00:34:38.559 --> 00:34:40.599
<v Speaker 1>you never did that, did you hear me say oh yeah,

466
00:34:40.639 --> 00:34:43.800
<v Speaker 1>I heard your dad. No, you didn't hear me, because

467
00:34:43.840 --> 00:34:46.280
<v Speaker 1>you still didn't take the trash out. You didn't hear

468
00:34:46.280 --> 00:34:49.079
<v Speaker 1>me or heard your dad. No, you did it. If

469
00:34:49.119 --> 00:34:53.639
<v Speaker 1>you'd have heard me, you'd have done it. And that's

470
00:34:53.679 --> 00:34:56.920
<v Speaker 1>in the Hebrew mindset. If you don't obey, you haven't heard.

471
00:34:58.000 --> 00:35:01.800
<v Speaker 1>And how many times people hear don't obey, which is

472
00:35:01.840 --> 00:35:05.559
<v Speaker 1>why the New Testament tells us time and again be

473
00:35:06.239 --> 00:35:12.039
<v Speaker 1>doers of the word and not hearers only. In other words,

474
00:35:12.119 --> 00:35:15.639
<v Speaker 1>make sure you hear with the understanding attention obedience. In

475
00:35:15.679 --> 00:35:19.000
<v Speaker 1>the Hebrew, they would say, one way to say it

476
00:35:19.000 --> 00:35:30.159
<v Speaker 1>would be listening, listen, listening, listen. The Theological word Book

477
00:35:30.159 --> 00:35:34.360
<v Speaker 1>of the Old Testament says this about smah. The basic

478
00:35:34.519 --> 00:35:39.840
<v Speaker 1>idea is that of perceiving a message to hear involving

479
00:35:40.079 --> 00:35:45.239
<v Speaker 1>effective hearing. Notice that effective hearing. You know there's a

480
00:35:45.280 --> 00:35:49.880
<v Speaker 1>difference between hearing and effective hearing. And Jesus says, if

481
00:35:49.920 --> 00:35:54.280
<v Speaker 1>you will effectively hear, I'll be your healer. I'll be

482
00:35:54.679 --> 00:35:58.679
<v Speaker 1>your yahweh rafha hear and be healed. The Greek word

483
00:35:58.760 --> 00:36:02.199
<v Speaker 1>translated here that he looked at where they hear and

484
00:36:02.280 --> 00:36:06.400
<v Speaker 1>be healed. It's it's in the Greek translation Old Testament.

485
00:36:06.719 --> 00:36:12.119
<v Speaker 1>They use it to translate the word shmah. It's effective

486
00:36:12.199 --> 00:36:15.880
<v Speaker 1>hearing and they hurt. Now we're gonna see tonight and

487
00:36:15.880 --> 00:36:18.559
<v Speaker 1>in the weeks to come, we're timing again in the

488
00:36:18.599 --> 00:36:22.119
<v Speaker 1>New Testament. They came and they heard and were healed.

489
00:36:22.679 --> 00:36:25.719
<v Speaker 1>We tend to think that, you know, the crowd just

490
00:36:25.800 --> 00:36:28.599
<v Speaker 1>kind of showed up and Jesus starts saying, heal, heal, heal,

491
00:36:28.679 --> 00:36:31.119
<v Speaker 1>he'll be He'll be healed, and just kind of people

492
00:36:31.199 --> 00:36:34.039
<v Speaker 1>just kind of walked up and hey, Jesus, ooh, I'm healed.

493
00:36:34.079 --> 00:36:36.639
<v Speaker 1>You know, no timing he is says they heard and

494
00:36:36.679 --> 00:36:40.679
<v Speaker 1>were healed. They took the time to hear and be healed.

495
00:36:40.880 --> 00:36:44.440
<v Speaker 1>Why was that? Because faith comes by hearing the word

496
00:36:44.519 --> 00:36:49.440
<v Speaker 1>of God. In Acts chapter fourteen, I believe it is

497
00:36:49.679 --> 00:36:52.760
<v Speaker 1>Paul was preaching the word and there was a man

498
00:36:52.880 --> 00:36:56.519
<v Speaker 1>there who had been lame from his mother's birth. He

499
00:36:56.599 --> 00:36:59.719
<v Speaker 1>had never walked, and now he's a grown man. And

500
00:36:59.760 --> 00:37:02.440
<v Speaker 1>Paul was preaching the word, and it says and he

501
00:37:02.679 --> 00:37:07.559
<v Speaker 1>perceiving that he had faith to be healed. Where did

502
00:37:07.599 --> 00:37:10.400
<v Speaker 1>he get the faith to be healed? Because Paul was

503
00:37:10.519 --> 00:37:16.159
<v Speaker 1>preaching the word and hearing procedes healing. And Paul said,

504
00:37:16.679 --> 00:37:20.400
<v Speaker 1>and Nyas, I said to you, take up your bed

505
00:37:20.400 --> 00:37:25.440
<v Speaker 1>and walk, get up. You're healed. And Anya's did it

506
00:37:27.119 --> 00:37:31.039
<v Speaker 1>here and be healed. Now. Most folks want to skip

507
00:37:31.079 --> 00:37:34.199
<v Speaker 1>the hearing. They just want to be healed. Most people,

508
00:37:34.800 --> 00:37:37.079
<v Speaker 1>you know, they just want to get forget the hearing.

509
00:37:37.559 --> 00:37:42.559
<v Speaker 1>Just heal me, just heal me. I heard Keith Moore

510
00:37:43.079 --> 00:37:47.719
<v Speaker 1>who used to work at Rama Healing School in Tulsa,

511
00:37:48.320 --> 00:37:51.119
<v Speaker 1>and they have healing school every day, and he was

512
00:37:51.159 --> 00:37:55.039
<v Speaker 1>one of the healing ministers, and he gave an illustration.

513
00:37:55.039 --> 00:38:00.559
<v Speaker 1>He said, this be prior to after the at afternoon

514
00:38:01.280 --> 00:38:04.480
<v Speaker 1>session between meetings. Basically, this couple came to him from

515
00:38:04.480 --> 00:38:07.880
<v Speaker 1>out of town and they said, brother Moore, would you

516
00:38:08.000 --> 00:38:13.960
<v Speaker 1>pray for us? Pray for my husband more specifically, he's

517
00:38:14.000 --> 00:38:18.480
<v Speaker 1>been diagnosed with a terminal disease. He's been given only

518
00:38:18.599 --> 00:38:21.920
<v Speaker 1>months to live. We'd like you to pray with him

519
00:38:21.960 --> 00:38:24.440
<v Speaker 1>and pray, lay your hands on him, anoint him with

520
00:38:24.639 --> 00:38:29.360
<v Speaker 1>oil so he could be healed. And so he said

521
00:38:29.559 --> 00:38:33.039
<v Speaker 1>he began to talk to them and just by talking

522
00:38:33.039 --> 00:38:35.000
<v Speaker 1>to him and listen what they had said, he said,

523
00:38:35.000 --> 00:38:37.480
<v Speaker 1>I proceed I knew they had no he had no

524
00:38:37.639 --> 00:38:40.760
<v Speaker 1>faith to be healed, and if I were to lay

525
00:38:40.800 --> 00:38:43.360
<v Speaker 1>hands on him and anoint him with oil, all that

526
00:38:43.440 --> 00:38:46.920
<v Speaker 1>would do was produce more discouragement and disappointment in him.

527
00:38:48.039 --> 00:38:49.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, we do that something we actually think about

528
00:38:49.960 --> 00:38:54.280
<v Speaker 1>doing injustice to people, to pray for him before they're ready,

529
00:38:54.679 --> 00:38:58.440
<v Speaker 1>before they have really any faith to be healed, because well,

530
00:38:58.519 --> 00:39:02.800
<v Speaker 1>go ahead, yeah, just go ahead, pray for me. And

531
00:39:02.840 --> 00:39:04.880
<v Speaker 1>then they boy pray for me. They don't get here

532
00:39:04.920 --> 00:39:07.440
<v Speaker 1>on anything. Well, they get discourage and they think it

533
00:39:07.440 --> 00:39:11.679
<v Speaker 1>doesn't work. I told the story before. I've had a

534
00:39:11.679 --> 00:39:17.440
<v Speaker 1>Full Gospel Businessman's Fellowship International dinner one time, and there

535
00:39:17.480 --> 00:39:21.280
<v Speaker 1>was a guy there in a wheelchair and the Full

536
00:39:21.280 --> 00:39:25.360
<v Speaker 1>Gospel Businessman. Back then, during the charismatic renewal, they would

537
00:39:25.360 --> 00:39:28.760
<v Speaker 1>pray for a fence post. And I saw this. I'm

538
00:39:28.760 --> 00:39:30.639
<v Speaker 1>standing off to the side and its like the Lord

539
00:39:30.679 --> 00:39:32.760
<v Speaker 1>gave me inside. And I'm just watching this and there's

540
00:39:32.800 --> 00:39:34.920
<v Speaker 1>this guy in a wheelchair, and this guy comes up

541
00:39:34.960 --> 00:39:37.239
<v Speaker 1>to him and says, hey, brother, can we pray for you?

542
00:39:37.360 --> 00:39:41.159
<v Speaker 1>He goes, well, okay, and I say, hey, guys, come

543
00:39:41.199 --> 00:39:43.320
<v Speaker 1>on over here. In about six guys surround they started

544
00:39:43.400 --> 00:39:47.360
<v Speaker 1>praying binding and loosing and casting out, casting in and

545
00:39:47.519 --> 00:39:50.480
<v Speaker 1>let go brother, hold on, brother, and all kinds of

546
00:39:50.480 --> 00:39:53.679
<v Speaker 1>things going on. I'm standing there watching this, and God says,

547
00:39:54.639 --> 00:39:59.079
<v Speaker 1>all they're doing is producing more unbelief and discouragement in him.

548
00:40:00.159 --> 00:40:05.440
<v Speaker 1>He's had this same experience many times before. He's got

549
00:40:05.519 --> 00:40:09.199
<v Speaker 1>no faith to be healed. He's just hoping something will happen,

550
00:40:09.400 --> 00:40:13.440
<v Speaker 1>trying to get it on everybody else's coattails. And I

551
00:40:13.480 --> 00:40:18.079
<v Speaker 1>was like, WHOA. What they needed, somebody needed is take

552
00:40:18.119 --> 00:40:20.840
<v Speaker 1>that man aside and say, hey, I'm going to teach

553
00:40:20.880 --> 00:40:23.840
<v Speaker 1>you the Word of God. We're going to get into

554
00:40:23.880 --> 00:40:26.880
<v Speaker 1>the scriptures and see what the Bible says about healing

555
00:40:27.519 --> 00:40:31.400
<v Speaker 1>so you can have faith to be healed. But most

556
00:40:31.480 --> 00:40:35.679
<v Speaker 1>people don't want to do that. So back to my story,

557
00:40:36.039 --> 00:40:39.239
<v Speaker 1>Brother Moore said to this couple, well, he was talking

558
00:40:39.280 --> 00:40:40.880
<v Speaker 1>to him and they could tell the guy had no

559
00:40:40.960 --> 00:40:44.639
<v Speaker 1>faith to be healed. He said, hey, the next session

560
00:40:44.639 --> 00:40:49.800
<v Speaker 1>of healing school begins in about an hour. Can you

561
00:40:49.880 --> 00:40:53.000
<v Speaker 1>come to that? And they go, oh, no, we got

562
00:40:53.000 --> 00:40:57.480
<v Speaker 1>a shopping trip planned. And he said, you nearly need

563
00:40:57.480 --> 00:41:00.239
<v Speaker 1>to come to this session to hear the word. They go,

564
00:41:00.280 --> 00:41:03.360
<v Speaker 1>oh no, we've been planning this shopping trip for a

565
00:41:03.400 --> 00:41:06.119
<v Speaker 1>long time, and we're just going to do that, he said.

566
00:41:06.199 --> 00:41:11.039
<v Speaker 1>Never heard from him again. The guy probably died because

567
00:41:11.039 --> 00:41:17.280
<v Speaker 1>people don't understand the importance of hearing. They just want

568
00:41:17.280 --> 00:41:20.239
<v Speaker 1>to skip that and go to be healed without any faith.

569
00:41:24.079 --> 00:41:29.000
<v Speaker 1>Most people don't understand the importance of diligently HARKing to

570
00:41:29.119 --> 00:41:31.599
<v Speaker 1>the word of God so he can be yahweh rafa

571
00:41:31.719 --> 00:41:35.880
<v Speaker 1>for them. Now, you know, if they did, if people

572
00:41:36.079 --> 00:41:40.480
<v Speaker 1>fully understood the importance of hearing, there going to be

573
00:41:40.519 --> 00:41:44.760
<v Speaker 1>an empty seat in here tonight. There's all kinds of

574
00:41:44.800 --> 00:41:48.880
<v Speaker 1>sick folk out there, but people don't want to take

575
00:41:48.920 --> 00:41:52.119
<v Speaker 1>the time to hear. Now, I can pretty much guarantee

576
00:41:52.159 --> 00:41:56.960
<v Speaker 1>you if it started getting noised about the cripples were walking,

577
00:41:58.159 --> 00:42:01.079
<v Speaker 1>blind eyes were being opened, that her being raised up,

578
00:42:01.320 --> 00:42:03.239
<v Speaker 1>we couldn't We'd have to bring in more chairs. You

579
00:42:03.239 --> 00:42:06.960
<v Speaker 1>couldn't get enough people in here. But you say, oh,

580
00:42:07.000 --> 00:42:13.079
<v Speaker 1>somebody's teaching on healing and building faith for healing. I

581
00:42:13.119 --> 00:42:17.840
<v Speaker 1>gotta go shopping. Brother Moore talked about another time he

582
00:42:17.960 --> 00:42:21.000
<v Speaker 1>ministered to a person under the same circumstances. You need

583
00:42:21.039 --> 00:42:23.599
<v Speaker 1>to come to the session. We got one starting in

584
00:42:23.639 --> 00:42:26.840
<v Speaker 1>about fifteen minutes and they said, Wow, this is there

585
00:42:27.000 --> 00:42:34.599
<v Speaker 1>work in my garden. I can't come what happened? What

586
00:42:34.840 --> 00:42:37.079
<v Speaker 1>you go? I mean, I've seen it over the years.

587
00:42:38.920 --> 00:42:42.719
<v Speaker 1>I've been in full time ministry about forty years, and

588
00:42:42.920 --> 00:42:45.320
<v Speaker 1>over that time, I've gone into hospitals a lot to

589
00:42:45.440 --> 00:42:50.559
<v Speaker 1>minister to people. Nine times out of ten, if not

590
00:42:50.840 --> 00:42:53.880
<v Speaker 1>nine point eight times out of ten. You go in

591
00:42:53.960 --> 00:42:57.079
<v Speaker 1>to see somebody. Sometimes they're a death's door and what's

592
00:42:57.119 --> 00:43:03.920
<v Speaker 1>going on? They're watching the boob tube? No faith in that,

593
00:43:06.039 --> 00:43:12.679
<v Speaker 1>no hearing in that. I've ministered to people before and

594
00:43:12.320 --> 00:43:15.519
<v Speaker 1>they're I mean serious conditions. I say, here, I'll give

595
00:43:15.519 --> 00:43:19.400
<v Speaker 1>you some healing messages on CD or give you some

596
00:43:19.519 --> 00:43:22.639
<v Speaker 1>books on healing, and then I follow up on them

597
00:43:22.639 --> 00:43:25.679
<v Speaker 1>a week later, ten days later. How you doing? No?

598
00:43:26.159 --> 00:43:29.880
<v Speaker 1>Not too good, brother, Tim. You know I'm still struggling.

599
00:43:29.960 --> 00:43:32.519
<v Speaker 1>I don't see anything better. I know you prayed, but

600
00:43:33.119 --> 00:43:36.280
<v Speaker 1>it's just not any better. Well did you read the

601
00:43:36.320 --> 00:43:39.639
<v Speaker 1>books I gave you? Well? No, I hadn't gotten around

602
00:43:39.639 --> 00:43:42.960
<v Speaker 1>to it. Well have you listened to the messages? No?

603
00:43:43.679 --> 00:43:46.920
<v Speaker 1>And in the background I can hear the stupid television

604
00:43:47.000 --> 00:43:52.960
<v Speaker 1>going time and time and time again. Sometimes I call somebody.

605
00:43:53.000 --> 00:43:55.679
<v Speaker 1>It's very sick, and it's like I can't even hear

606
00:43:55.719 --> 00:43:58.039
<v Speaker 1>what they're saying because it's televisions. Also, I'm going to

607
00:43:58.159 --> 00:44:01.119
<v Speaker 1>visit people in their house. I'm trying to minis healing. Finally,

608
00:44:01.119 --> 00:44:06.199
<v Speaker 1>I say, can we turn that off? It's like, ah,

609
00:44:06.280 --> 00:44:10.400
<v Speaker 1>this addiction to television watching General Hospital is not going

610
00:44:10.440 --> 00:44:16.519
<v Speaker 1>to get you healed, and as the stomach turns, it's

611
00:44:16.599 --> 00:44:22.000
<v Speaker 1>not going to do it. Hear and be healed. If

612
00:44:22.039 --> 00:44:26.800
<v Speaker 1>thou wilt diligently hearken, look to it again Etuy fifteen

613
00:44:26.880 --> 00:44:30.199
<v Speaker 1>twenty six. If you diligently hearken, Well, let's keep that

614
00:44:30.320 --> 00:44:35.400
<v Speaker 1>definition up. Know what there it is if you diligently hearken. Now,

615
00:44:35.480 --> 00:44:38.719
<v Speaker 1>let's hurry o back to that definition. If you diligently hearken.

616
00:44:38.800 --> 00:44:42.599
<v Speaker 1>Schmash Shama, the theological word Book of the Old Testament,

617
00:44:42.679 --> 00:44:44.960
<v Speaker 1>says the basic guy of the hear is that of

618
00:44:45.079 --> 00:44:50.960
<v Speaker 1>perceiving a message to hear, involving effective hearing. Listen, to

619
00:44:51.519 --> 00:45:01.320
<v Speaker 1>pay attention, to understand, hear critically obey. Obey, That says

620
00:45:01.519 --> 00:45:06.719
<v Speaker 1>is to give attention, be attentive. Do people give attention

621
00:45:07.000 --> 00:45:11.440
<v Speaker 1>to the word of God? Are they attentive to the

622
00:45:11.480 --> 00:45:13.840
<v Speaker 1>word of God. Do they read it, do they study it?

623
00:45:14.519 --> 00:45:17.840
<v Speaker 1>Do they memorize healing scripture? Why does God tell us

624
00:45:18.159 --> 00:45:21.960
<v Speaker 1>to diligently hearken to the word because most folks aren't

625
00:45:22.000 --> 00:45:24.920
<v Speaker 1>doing it. That's why he has to tell us that.

626
00:45:25.519 --> 00:45:28.599
<v Speaker 1>Why does he say, in proverb, for my son, my daughter,

627
00:45:28.639 --> 00:45:31.800
<v Speaker 1>attend to my word and climb your ear to my saying,

628
00:45:31.960 --> 00:45:35.840
<v Speaker 1>because most folk aren't doing it. Why does he say

629
00:45:35.960 --> 00:45:38.559
<v Speaker 1>keep it in the midst of your heart because most

630
00:45:38.599 --> 00:45:42.440
<v Speaker 1>people don't do it. But when we do it, he said,

631
00:45:42.480 --> 00:45:45.000
<v Speaker 1>my words will be health and healing and medicine to

632
00:45:45.039 --> 00:45:47.199
<v Speaker 1>all your faith. He said, when we do it, I'll

633
00:45:47.480 --> 00:45:52.320
<v Speaker 1>reveal myself as yahweh Rafael to you, your physician, your healer,

634
00:45:52.559 --> 00:45:57.920
<v Speaker 1>your doctor. Well, can't we just skip everything prior to that,

635
00:45:58.519 --> 00:46:00.760
<v Speaker 1>all of verse twenty six and just get right down

636
00:46:00.760 --> 00:46:03.440
<v Speaker 1>to yahweh Rafha. Just do it, Lords, I can go

637
00:46:03.480 --> 00:46:08.000
<v Speaker 1>back to watching television. Heal me of this incurable disease

638
00:46:08.679 --> 00:46:11.079
<v Speaker 1>so I don't have to go to the hospital, pay

639
00:46:11.079 --> 00:46:13.239
<v Speaker 1>all those medical bills, and I can go back to

640
00:46:13.320 --> 00:46:16.239
<v Speaker 1>watching television. Just do it, Lord, Just I mean people

641
00:46:16.280 --> 00:46:18.480
<v Speaker 1>come to me of frequently. Pie, do you just would

642
00:46:18.480 --> 00:46:21.960
<v Speaker 1>you pray for me? Would you annoint me? Well, if

643
00:46:22.039 --> 00:46:26.880
<v Speaker 1>you do, you know what scriptures are standing on. Huh,

644
00:46:27.360 --> 00:46:30.719
<v Speaker 1>No faith to be healed. Heybody just want some miracle.

645
00:46:31.760 --> 00:46:36.519
<v Speaker 1>They just want it automatically, without taking the time to

646
00:46:36.559 --> 00:46:41.480
<v Speaker 1>build faith. W Vine says the word schma means says

647
00:46:41.480 --> 00:46:46.039
<v Speaker 1>it can be both intellectual hearing and spiritual hearing. Remember,

648
00:46:46.119 --> 00:46:50.400
<v Speaker 1>Jesus said he that has ears to hear, let him hear. Everybody.

649
00:46:50.440 --> 00:46:54.280
<v Speaker 1>He said that to had physical ears. But he said,

650
00:46:54.719 --> 00:46:59.679
<v Speaker 1>if you have ears here, here, here, spiritually here intelligently.

651
00:47:01.199 --> 00:47:04.280
<v Speaker 1>So he says, diligently, hearken to the voice of the

652
00:47:04.320 --> 00:47:07.559
<v Speaker 1>Lord your God, and do that which is right in

653
00:47:07.639 --> 00:47:13.440
<v Speaker 1>his sight. And give ear to his commandments. Back to

654
00:47:13.440 --> 00:47:17.920
<v Speaker 1>the Exodus fifteen twenty six. Give ear to his commandments,

655
00:47:18.440 --> 00:47:24.079
<v Speaker 1>give ear to his commandments. Give your ear to his commandments.

656
00:47:24.119 --> 00:47:27.280
<v Speaker 1>And I'll be the Lord your healer. Give ear to him.

657
00:47:29.320 --> 00:47:33.880
<v Speaker 1>But what do most people give ear to? Secular news,

658
00:47:34.920 --> 00:47:41.320
<v Speaker 1>secular music, secular television, secular music. That's what they give

659
00:47:41.400 --> 00:47:43.880
<v Speaker 1>ear to. They don't give ear to the Word of God.

660
00:47:44.840 --> 00:47:48.039
<v Speaker 1>And faith comes by hearing the word of God. Not

661
00:47:48.159 --> 00:47:53.159
<v Speaker 1>faith comes by hearing secular music, secular television, secular magazines,

662
00:47:53.480 --> 00:47:57.719
<v Speaker 1>secular news. Faith doesn't come from that. Fear comes from

663
00:47:57.760 --> 00:48:03.360
<v Speaker 1>that comes from the secular. Faith comes from the Word

664
00:48:03.400 --> 00:48:08.639
<v Speaker 1>of God. People hear all that stuff and saturate themselves

665
00:48:08.639 --> 00:48:11.800
<v Speaker 1>and they get in fear, like, oh, they said it's coming.

666
00:48:11.880 --> 00:48:13.960
<v Speaker 1>They said, it's all over. What am I going to do?

667
00:48:15.079 --> 00:48:17.159
<v Speaker 1>But you get into the Word of God and faith

668
00:48:17.199 --> 00:48:19.519
<v Speaker 1>comes in. It's like, the Lord is my shepherd. I

669
00:48:19.599 --> 00:48:22.920
<v Speaker 1>do not want no weapon formed against me. Shall prosper.

670
00:48:23.679 --> 00:48:27.280
<v Speaker 1>He's my rock, my refuge, my shield. What are you

671
00:48:27.360 --> 00:48:32.719
<v Speaker 1>giving ear to? Now? Think about it, all of us people,

672
00:48:32.840 --> 00:48:38.639
<v Speaker 1>all the time, God's people commonly ask God to give

673
00:48:38.679 --> 00:48:44.440
<v Speaker 1>ear to their prayers and petitions and supplications. But you know,

674
00:48:44.559 --> 00:48:48.599
<v Speaker 1>God also asks us to give ear to what he's saying.

675
00:48:49.119 --> 00:48:51.960
<v Speaker 1>Oh God, listen to what I say. Oh God, I'm praying,

676
00:48:52.000 --> 00:48:53.960
<v Speaker 1>I want you to hear what I'm saying. But God

677
00:48:54.000 --> 00:48:56.760
<v Speaker 1>also says, I want you to hear what I'm saying.

678
00:49:01.320 --> 00:49:07.800
<v Speaker 1>Give ear to his commandments and notice and keep all

679
00:49:08.000 --> 00:49:13.039
<v Speaker 1>his statutes. Now, this is a related word to diligently

680
00:49:13.119 --> 00:49:18.320
<v Speaker 1>hearken shama. It's the Hebrew word shamar, and it means

681
00:49:18.719 --> 00:49:24.079
<v Speaker 1>to hedge about, to guard, protect, a tend to watch over,

682
00:49:24.159 --> 00:49:30.159
<v Speaker 1>to watch over carefully. He says, take all his commandments,

683
00:49:30.159 --> 00:49:34.559
<v Speaker 1>his statutes, and guard them, protect them, watch over them carefully.

684
00:49:34.719 --> 00:49:37.920
<v Speaker 1>It's the same Hebrew word that God told Adam and Eve.

685
00:49:38.159 --> 00:49:42.360
<v Speaker 1>He said, guard the garden, protect the garden, and they

686
00:49:42.400 --> 00:49:45.559
<v Speaker 1>didn't do it, and the devil got in, and God

687
00:49:45.679 --> 00:49:49.360
<v Speaker 1>saying guard your life, protect your life, so the devil

688
00:49:49.440 --> 00:49:54.679
<v Speaker 1>doesn't get in. Keep all his commandments. It means to

689
00:49:54.920 --> 00:50:02.280
<v Speaker 1>watch carefully over, to pay close attention to the theological word.

690
00:50:02.280 --> 00:50:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Book of the Old Testament says it means to exercise

691
00:50:06.519 --> 00:50:11.360
<v Speaker 1>great care over, to be careful to do or perform.

692
00:50:13.480 --> 00:50:17.559
<v Speaker 1>Do all my commandments, perform all my commandments, it says.

693
00:50:18.400 --> 00:50:22.039
<v Speaker 1>It expresses the careful attention to be paid to the

694
00:50:22.079 --> 00:50:28.079
<v Speaker 1>obligations of a covenant. We are in covenant with Yahweh,

695
00:50:28.119 --> 00:50:33.000
<v Speaker 1>God with Yahweh. Rafa wants to establish a healing covenant

696
00:50:33.039 --> 00:50:36.960
<v Speaker 1>with you, and he says, if you do this, I'll

697
00:50:37.000 --> 00:50:42.679
<v Speaker 1>do this. He said, if you diligently hearken, give your

698
00:50:43.440 --> 00:50:48.480
<v Speaker 1>keep and obey what I'm saying, I'll do this. I'll

699
00:50:48.480 --> 00:50:52.079
<v Speaker 1>be your doctor, your physician, your healer. I'll take sickness

700
00:50:52.119 --> 00:50:55.880
<v Speaker 1>away from the midst of you. Exodus twenty three, twenty five.

701
00:50:56.280 --> 00:50:59.000
<v Speaker 1>You know God said that, He said, I will take

702
00:50:59.360 --> 00:51:05.800
<v Speaker 1>sickness away from the midst of you. That's a promise.

703
00:51:06.960 --> 00:51:10.039
<v Speaker 1>It's a condition of the covenant. And people think, well,

704
00:51:10.079 --> 00:51:13.519
<v Speaker 1>I don't understand God must not a minute because I

705
00:51:13.559 --> 00:51:15.880
<v Speaker 1>don't see it, and I don't se anybody else see it.

706
00:51:15.960 --> 00:51:20.079
<v Speaker 1>And it's not working because we're not fulfilling the conditions

707
00:51:20.079 --> 00:51:24.079
<v Speaker 1>of the covenant. Hear and be healed. They came to

708
00:51:24.159 --> 00:51:30.280
<v Speaker 1>him to hear and be healed. He perceived he had

709
00:51:30.360 --> 00:51:32.960
<v Speaker 1>faith to be healed. He heard, and he perceived he

710
00:51:33.039 --> 00:51:36.280
<v Speaker 1>had faith to be faith comes by hearing the word

711
00:51:36.320 --> 00:51:42.119
<v Speaker 1>of God. My counsel to somebody had a terminal disease

712
00:51:42.880 --> 00:51:46.239
<v Speaker 1>would be shut yourself up in the bedroom and do

713
00:51:46.400 --> 00:51:49.599
<v Speaker 1>nothing but listen to the word of God on healing

714
00:51:49.920 --> 00:51:54.519
<v Speaker 1>and read healing literature and do nothing but healing until

715
00:51:54.559 --> 00:52:00.280
<v Speaker 1>you either die in there or come out healed. And

716
00:52:00.320 --> 00:52:05.599
<v Speaker 1>there's a high probability you'll come out here. But what

717
00:52:05.800 --> 00:52:09.559
<v Speaker 1>most folks do, Doctor gave me two months to live,

718
00:52:10.320 --> 00:52:16.239
<v Speaker 1>and they watched television the whole time, waiting to die.

719
00:52:16.599 --> 00:52:24.880
<v Speaker 1>Waiting to die. It means frequently, it's frequently used to

720
00:52:24.960 --> 00:52:28.800
<v Speaker 1>speak of personal discipline. This is the theological word book

721
00:52:28.840 --> 00:52:32.480
<v Speaker 1>of the Old Testament for Shamar. It's used to speak

722
00:52:32.519 --> 00:52:36.360
<v Speaker 1>of personal discipline and the need to take heed in

723
00:52:36.400 --> 00:52:40.519
<v Speaker 1>respect to one's life and actions. We don't want to

724
00:52:40.559 --> 00:52:43.920
<v Speaker 1>do that, take heed to my life and actions? Can

725
00:52:44.039 --> 00:52:52.719
<v Speaker 1>I just live spiritually sloppy and still walk in divine health? Okay,

726
00:52:52.800 --> 00:52:56.840
<v Speaker 1>let me wrap it up here. We'll summarize this passage.

727
00:52:57.039 --> 00:52:58.760
<v Speaker 1>We didn't get it all in. I wanted to show

728
00:52:58.800 --> 00:53:01.239
<v Speaker 1>some of the more New Testament scriptures on here and

729
00:53:01.280 --> 00:53:03.800
<v Speaker 1>be healed. We'll take it up from here next week.

730
00:53:04.480 --> 00:53:09.159
<v Speaker 1>One great promise or one great covenant, four great conditions

731
00:53:09.159 --> 00:53:13.079
<v Speaker 1>in this verse Hebrews Exodus fifteen twenty six, the healing

732
00:53:13.159 --> 00:53:18.400
<v Speaker 1>covenant yahweh rafa establishes the number one. Diligently hearken to

733
00:53:18.440 --> 00:53:23.800
<v Speaker 1>God's voice. Diligently hearken to God's voice. So, in other words,

734
00:53:23.800 --> 00:53:27.400
<v Speaker 1>hear it, attend to it, obey it. Do what God

735
00:53:27.440 --> 00:53:32.159
<v Speaker 1>tells you to do. Now, really, these aren't this complicated.

736
00:53:32.199 --> 00:53:35.440
<v Speaker 1>There are four basic things, and if we'll do them,

737
00:53:35.559 --> 00:53:39.079
<v Speaker 1>God says, and I'll be yahweh rafa to you. You

738
00:53:39.199 --> 00:53:42.119
<v Speaker 1>do these four things, and I will be the Lord

739
00:53:42.159 --> 00:53:46.559
<v Speaker 1>your healer. Diligently hearken to God's voice. Hear it, attend

740
00:53:46.559 --> 00:53:48.719
<v Speaker 1>to it, obey it. Do what God tells you to do.

741
00:53:48.840 --> 00:53:53.280
<v Speaker 1>Number two, do what is right. Do what is right.

742
00:53:53.320 --> 00:53:55.000
<v Speaker 1>He said, if you diligence hearkened the voice of the

743
00:53:55.039 --> 00:53:57.159
<v Speaker 1>Lord your God, and do that which is right in

744
00:53:57.239 --> 00:54:00.360
<v Speaker 1>his sight. Do what is right in his sight. In

745
00:54:00.400 --> 00:54:04.280
<v Speaker 1>other words, live holy and righteous, Be godly in your

746
00:54:04.360 --> 00:54:09.079
<v Speaker 1>life and conduct. Live holy and righteous, Do what is

747
00:54:09.159 --> 00:54:11.800
<v Speaker 1>right in his sight. Be godly in your life and conduct.

748
00:54:12.000 --> 00:54:14.920
<v Speaker 1>Third thing he tells us to do, give ear to

749
00:54:14.960 --> 00:54:20.239
<v Speaker 1>his commandments. Give ear to his commandments, or feed on

750
00:54:20.639 --> 00:54:24.239
<v Speaker 1>the word of God. Feed on the word of God.

751
00:54:24.639 --> 00:54:28.079
<v Speaker 1>Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every

752
00:54:28.079 --> 00:54:29.840
<v Speaker 1>word that comes out of the mouth of God. Who

753
00:54:29.880 --> 00:54:35.000
<v Speaker 1>said that, Come on, who said that man shall not

754
00:54:35.079 --> 00:54:37.039
<v Speaker 1>live by bread alone, but by every word that comes

755
00:54:37.119 --> 00:54:42.960
<v Speaker 1>out of the mouth of God. Jesus said that I

756
00:54:43.039 --> 00:54:47.480
<v Speaker 1>can feed on the word of God. And then the

757
00:54:47.519 --> 00:54:51.199
<v Speaker 1>fourth thing he says, keep all his statutes, keep all

758
00:54:51.199 --> 00:54:55.440
<v Speaker 1>his statue, do the word, perform the word, discipline yourself,

759
00:54:55.800 --> 00:55:00.719
<v Speaker 1>guard yourself, acknowledge Him as God and Lord Word, and

760
00:55:00.800 --> 00:55:06.840
<v Speaker 1>live free from my doolatry. Well what you're talking about.

761
00:55:06.840 --> 00:55:10.920
<v Speaker 1>Why do you say put idolatry in here, Because anything

762
00:55:11.079 --> 00:55:14.599
<v Speaker 1>we have in our life that supersedes God is number

763
00:55:14.599 --> 00:55:19.840
<v Speaker 1>one in our life is an idol. Anything we're putting

764
00:55:19.880 --> 00:55:26.599
<v Speaker 1>ahead of God, a hobby, a sport, recreation, money, a job,

765
00:55:27.599 --> 00:55:34.280
<v Speaker 1>a person, it's an idol. God has to be number one.

766
00:55:35.159 --> 00:55:38.239
<v Speaker 1>So he says, keep all his statutes, acknowledge Him as

767
00:55:38.320 --> 00:55:40.960
<v Speaker 1>God and Lord, and live free from my dolatary. And

768
00:55:41.039 --> 00:55:45.719
<v Speaker 1>then the great commandment, love love God, and love others.

769
00:55:46.840 --> 00:55:50.679
<v Speaker 1>Love God, love people, Love God with all your heart, soul,

770
00:55:50.840 --> 00:55:54.920
<v Speaker 1>mind and strength, and love others as you love yourself.

771
00:55:56.800 --> 00:56:02.320
<v Speaker 1>And he says, I will be to you. Yahweh rafa,

772
00:56:03.920 --> 00:56:14.360
<v Speaker 1>yahweh rafa, hallelujah. Hear and be healed. When people don't hear,

773
00:56:14.880 --> 00:56:20.760
<v Speaker 1>oftentimes they're not healed. But when they do hear, they

774
00:56:20.760 --> 00:56:25.719
<v Speaker 1>are healed. Faith comes by hearing the word of God.

775
00:56:25.800 --> 00:56:27.960
<v Speaker 1>Let's stand up and we're going to sing a song

776
00:56:28.239 --> 00:56:32.280
