<v Speaker 2>I want to look at diligently, hearken to the voice. Diligently,

<v Speaker 2>you're turning there, I want to encourage you if you

9
00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:57.039
<v Speaker 2>have had an interest in the Foundational Discipleship class. We

10
00:00:57.119 --> 00:00:59.719
<v Speaker 2>began at last Sunday, and week two is this Sunday,

11
00:00:59.719 --> 00:01:01.520
<v Speaker 2>and you could still get in. This would be the

12
00:01:01.600 --> 00:01:05.920
<v Speaker 2>last week. But if you call the office or even

13
00:01:06.040 --> 00:01:11.640
<v Speaker 2>come this Sunday, preferably call, we can get you in.

14
00:01:12.040 --> 00:01:17.319
<v Speaker 2>There's ten weeks that will revolutionize your life. Sunday morning,

15
00:01:17.319 --> 00:01:20.640
<v Speaker 2>we're going to be looking at the Shepherd's anointing, and

16
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:25.799
<v Speaker 2>I think you're going to be blessed by finding out

17
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:31.439
<v Speaker 2>some of these things about the Shepherd's anointing. Luke chapter six,

18
00:01:35.280 --> 00:01:42.439
<v Speaker 2>verse seventeen. And he Jesus came down with them and

19
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:46.599
<v Speaker 2>stood in the plane, and the company of his disciples,

20
00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:53.120
<v Speaker 2>and a great multitude of people out of all Judea

21
00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:59.359
<v Speaker 2>in Jerusalem and all the sea coast of Tire and Sidon,

22
00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:06.760
<v Speaker 2>who came to hear him and be healed of their diseases.

23
00:02:08.439 --> 00:02:12.120
<v Speaker 2>They came to hear and be healed. Again, I encourage

24
00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:16.599
<v Speaker 2>you to circle or underline those phrases here and be healed.

25
00:02:17.960 --> 00:02:20.240
<v Speaker 2>They came to hear and be healed. A lot of

26
00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:23.080
<v Speaker 2>times people just want to be healed. They don't want

27
00:02:23.120 --> 00:02:26.879
<v Speaker 2>to hear. Can I just skip the hearing and go

28
00:02:26.919 --> 00:02:32.680
<v Speaker 2>to the healings? But healing is a vital part of hearing.

29
00:02:33.479 --> 00:02:37.400
<v Speaker 2>Or excuse me, well, you could kind of said it backwards.

30
00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:43.800
<v Speaker 2>Hearing is a vital part of healing. Healing of all

31
00:02:43.960 --> 00:02:50.159
<v Speaker 2>kinds starts with hearing. Because faith comes by hearing the

32
00:02:50.199 --> 00:02:54.080
<v Speaker 2>word of God. We have to hear that Jesus heals here,

33
00:02:54.560 --> 00:03:00.360
<v Speaker 2>that he has compassion here, that it's his will. Why

34
00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:05.400
<v Speaker 2>would we need to be healed to hear, Because again

35
00:03:05.560 --> 00:03:11.120
<v Speaker 2>Romans ten seventeen, faith comes by hearing. So on one

36
00:03:11.159 --> 00:03:14.199
<v Speaker 2>O seven twenty he sent his word and healed us,

37
00:03:14.360 --> 00:03:18.840
<v Speaker 2>delivered us from all destruction. So they came to hear

38
00:03:18.960 --> 00:03:22.080
<v Speaker 2>him and be healed of their diseases. We're going to

39
00:03:22.120 --> 00:03:27.680
<v Speaker 2>develop this thought tonight. And they that were vexed with

40
00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:35.680
<v Speaker 2>unclean spirits, and they were healed, And the whole multitude

41
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:42.120
<v Speaker 2>sought to touch him, for there went virtue or power

42
00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:53.039
<v Speaker 2>out of him, and healed them all. Healed them all,

43
00:03:54.360 --> 00:04:03.520
<v Speaker 2>the multitudes. Now, when we read of the Feeding of

44
00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:09.319
<v Speaker 2>the five thousand, it says that there was a multitude gathered,

45
00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:15.120
<v Speaker 2>and Jesus taught them, and then he realized they were hungry,

46
00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:21.040
<v Speaker 2>and he multiplied the loaves and fishes and fed five

47
00:04:21.160 --> 00:04:29.959
<v Speaker 2>thousand men, including and women, and an additional women and children.

48
00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:33.720
<v Speaker 2>Five thousand men plus women and children. So that could

49
00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:37.360
<v Speaker 2>have been a crowd of ten to fifteen thousand people,

50
00:04:38.959 --> 00:04:45.199
<v Speaker 2>and that was termed a multitude. Verse seventeen says this

51
00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:51.959
<v Speaker 2>was a great multitude. If a multitude is ten to

52
00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:58.000
<v Speaker 2>fifteen thousand, how many would a great multitude be? It

53
00:04:58.079 --> 00:05:03.240
<v Speaker 2>could have been fifty thousand or more. And they sought

54
00:05:03.279 --> 00:05:09.040
<v Speaker 2>to touch him, and they went power out of him

55
00:05:09.120 --> 00:05:13.759
<v Speaker 2>and healed them all. But notice a vital part of this.

56
00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:20.199
<v Speaker 2>They came to hear him. They came to hear him.

57
00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:27.920
<v Speaker 2>Hearing is a vital part of healing. Look at verse six,

58
00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:34.639
<v Speaker 2>same chapter, Luke sixty six. And it came to pass,

59
00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:40.000
<v Speaker 2>also on another Sabbath, that he Jesus entered into the

60
00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:47.680
<v Speaker 2>synagogue and taught, He taught, he went, did he teach,

61
00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:51.439
<v Speaker 2>He taught the word, taught the will of God. And

62
00:05:51.480 --> 00:05:55.839
<v Speaker 2>there was a man whose right hand was paralyzed. And

63
00:05:55.920 --> 00:06:00.680
<v Speaker 2>the scribes and pharisees watched him whether he would on

64
00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:05.240
<v Speaker 2>the Sabbath day, not whether he could heal, but whether

65
00:06:05.279 --> 00:06:08.560
<v Speaker 2>he would heal. They knew he could, They just weren't

66
00:06:08.600 --> 00:06:13.319
<v Speaker 2>sure if he would on their sacred Sabbath, that they

67
00:06:13.399 --> 00:06:17.680
<v Speaker 2>might find an accusation against him. But he knew their

68
00:06:17.720 --> 00:06:20.240
<v Speaker 2>thoughts and said to the man that had the paralyzed hand,

69
00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:24.639
<v Speaker 2>rise up, stand forth. In the midst in verse ten,

70
00:06:24.680 --> 00:06:30.079
<v Speaker 2>it says he told him, stretch forth thy hand. Now again,

71
00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:35.360
<v Speaker 2>we tend to look at this healing, this miracle, as disjointed,

72
00:06:36.839 --> 00:06:40.600
<v Speaker 2>an isolated case, and had nothing to do with hearing.

73
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:44.439
<v Speaker 2>We just think, well, Jesus just selected the man and said, well,

74
00:06:44.839 --> 00:06:49.439
<v Speaker 2>you know, stretch forth your hand be healed. We often overlooked.

75
00:06:49.480 --> 00:06:51.800
<v Speaker 2>At in verse six, it says he was in the

76
00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:57.199
<v Speaker 2>synagogue teaching so all indication is this man with a

77
00:06:57.240 --> 00:07:04.279
<v Speaker 2>withered hand heard him, and faith came by hearing. And

78
00:07:04.399 --> 00:07:08.240
<v Speaker 2>it's quite likely that Jesus, as we'll see in the

79
00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:10.639
<v Speaker 2>book of Acts here in a minute, perceived that he

80
00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:14.199
<v Speaker 2>had faith to be healed, and said, stretch forth your hand.

81
00:07:15.879 --> 00:07:21.000
<v Speaker 2>Faith comes by hearing the word of God. We know

82
00:07:21.199 --> 00:07:26.439
<v Speaker 2>Jesus went about sharing out of Isaiah. The spirit of

83
00:07:26.439 --> 00:07:29.120
<v Speaker 2>the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me

84
00:07:29.680 --> 00:07:32.240
<v Speaker 2>to preach the good news of the poor. He has

85
00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:36.279
<v Speaker 2>sent me to heal the broken hearted, to preach deliverance

86
00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:40.040
<v Speaker 2>to the captives, recovery of sight to the blind, to

87
00:07:40.120 --> 00:07:42.639
<v Speaker 2>set at liberty them that are bruised, to preach the

88
00:07:42.759 --> 00:07:46.920
<v Speaker 2>year of the Jubilee, the year where everybody goes free.

89
00:07:47.160 --> 00:07:51.199
<v Speaker 2>We know he preached that message and others, so it'd

90
00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:53.399
<v Speaker 2>be easy to sit there and hear him preaching that,

91
00:07:53.519 --> 00:07:59.000
<v Speaker 2>and faith come. He said to him, stretch forth your hand. Well,

92
00:07:59.079 --> 00:08:01.240
<v Speaker 2>let's look at that. Your place there in luke, because

93
00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:06.480
<v Speaker 2>we're going to come back. But go to Acts chapter fourteen.

94
00:08:06.560 --> 00:08:08.720
<v Speaker 2>Hold your finger there in luke, or put a piece

95
00:08:08.759 --> 00:08:13.199
<v Speaker 2>of paper or something in there, Acts chapter fourteen. Or

96
00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:15.639
<v Speaker 2>ask your neighbor to stick their finger in there for

97
00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:30.800
<v Speaker 2>you or something. Acts fourteen, verse seven. This is speaking

98
00:08:38.240 --> 00:08:44.720
<v Speaker 2>of Lystra and Iconium, and it says in there they

99
00:08:44.840 --> 00:08:50.600
<v Speaker 2>verse seven, and there they preached the gospel, Paul and

100
00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:56.000
<v Speaker 2>his company, and there sat a man in Listra, impotent

101
00:08:56.279 --> 00:09:01.480
<v Speaker 2>in his feet, being a cripple from So this guy's

102
00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:05.080
<v Speaker 2>a man. Now we don't know for sure how old

103
00:09:05.120 --> 00:09:11.200
<v Speaker 2>he was, but he's been crippled from birth, so he's

104
00:09:11.240 --> 00:09:15.159
<v Speaker 2>probably thirty forty fifty years, maybe more. It could have

105
00:09:15.159 --> 00:09:23.000
<v Speaker 2>been seventy years. This way, who never had walked? What

106
00:09:23.120 --> 00:09:29.000
<v Speaker 2>a condition, never had walked, and they didn't have all

107
00:09:29.120 --> 00:09:34.399
<v Speaker 2>the modern helps back then that they have now. He

108
00:09:34.480 --> 00:09:40.519
<v Speaker 2>never had walked. Now, notice verse nine, the same heard

109
00:09:42.039 --> 00:09:48.000
<v Speaker 2>marked that word, heard, the same heard Paul speak, who

110
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:52.399
<v Speaker 2>he heard him preach, because it says the verse seventy

111
00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:58.519
<v Speaker 2>preached the gospel, preach the good news, the gospel of healing. Obviously,

112
00:10:00.159 --> 00:10:06.440
<v Speaker 2>because the same heard Paul speak, who steadfastly beholding him

113
00:10:06.960 --> 00:10:12.600
<v Speaker 2>and perceiving? Paul perceived that he, the man had been

114
00:10:12.639 --> 00:10:18.200
<v Speaker 2>crippled from birth, had faith to be healed. Where would

115
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:22.919
<v Speaker 2>the man that's been crippled from birth get faith to

116
00:10:23.000 --> 00:10:29.720
<v Speaker 2>be healed? He heard Paul speak and faith. Roman's ten

117
00:10:29.799 --> 00:10:35.399
<v Speaker 2>seventeen comes by hearing the word of God. He heard

118
00:10:35.480 --> 00:10:39.720
<v Speaker 2>Paul speak, and he had faith to be healed. And

119
00:10:39.759 --> 00:10:46.720
<v Speaker 2>Paul said, with a loud voice, stand upright on your feet.

120
00:10:47.799 --> 00:10:53.159
<v Speaker 2>Paul wasn't shy about performing miracles and healings. I want

121
00:10:53.240 --> 00:10:56.759
<v Speaker 2>everybody to know what's going on. And he the man

122
00:10:56.960 --> 00:11:03.679
<v Speaker 2>crippled from birth, leaped and walked. WHOA, what a sight

123
00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:07.600
<v Speaker 2>that would have been. Hallylujah. I think this guy maybe

124
00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:14.120
<v Speaker 2>got a little pentecostal he leap and walk. I don't

125
00:11:14.120 --> 00:11:18.240
<v Speaker 2>think he jumped up and say, oh that's nice, thank

126
00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:25.360
<v Speaker 2>you Lord. You know he probably got WHOA you would

127
00:11:25.399 --> 00:11:29.799
<v Speaker 2>I would if you hadn't walked your whole life. He

128
00:11:29.879 --> 00:11:38.080
<v Speaker 2>leaped and walked. Now, notice Paul did three things. The

129
00:11:38.200 --> 00:11:46.159
<v Speaker 2>man did three things, and God did something. Paul preached

130
00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:51.200
<v Speaker 2>in verse seven, perceived in verse nine, and said in

131
00:11:51.320 --> 00:11:56.080
<v Speaker 2>verse ten. Paul preached the word he perceived, and he

132
00:11:56.159 --> 00:12:01.720
<v Speaker 2>spoke the faith command broke out what he had perceived.

133
00:12:02.200 --> 00:12:10.080
<v Speaker 2>The man heard the gospel verse nine, had faith verse nine,

134
00:12:10.679 --> 00:12:15.480
<v Speaker 2>and responded to the faith command and leaped and walked

135
00:12:16.600 --> 00:12:20.639
<v Speaker 2>when Paul said to him, stand upright on thy feet.

136
00:12:21.320 --> 00:12:24.600
<v Speaker 2>Even though the power God obviously came on him and

137
00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:28.960
<v Speaker 2>came into him. That man could have said, Paul, you

138
00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:33.720
<v Speaker 2>don't know what you're saying. I've never walked. I can't walk,

139
00:12:34.440 --> 00:12:37.960
<v Speaker 2>I can't stand up. You have to help me. Somebody's

140
00:12:38.000 --> 00:12:40.799
<v Speaker 2>got to help me. He could have done that, Paul,

141
00:12:40.879 --> 00:12:44.200
<v Speaker 2>what are you talking about. Don't you know I've been

142
00:12:44.240 --> 00:12:49.120
<v Speaker 2>crippled from my mother's womb. I can't get up. No,

143
00:12:49.360 --> 00:12:57.039
<v Speaker 2>he responded to the faith command, and he leaped and walked.

144
00:12:57.120 --> 00:13:00.519
<v Speaker 2>He did. Paul did three things. The man did three things,

145
00:13:00.559 --> 00:13:08.799
<v Speaker 2>and God did something made him whole. Hallelujah, Glory, glory, glory.

146
00:13:09.519 --> 00:13:16.600
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's go to Let's go back to Luke.

147
00:13:17.759 --> 00:13:20.759
<v Speaker 2>Still got your finger there right, or your neighbor's finger

148
00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:29.039
<v Speaker 2>or something Luke chapter eight. We're there in Luke six.

149
00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:40.000
<v Speaker 2>Go to Luke eight, verse forty eight. Luke eight forty eight.

150
00:13:45.639 --> 00:13:48.159
<v Speaker 2>Notice this is I'm cutting in here, but this is

151
00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:50.960
<v Speaker 2>the case of the woman with the issue of blood.

152
00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:54.240
<v Speaker 2>And she crawled up and touched the hem of his

153
00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:59.759
<v Speaker 2>garment and was healed. Remember this woman had been very sick.

154
00:14:00.759 --> 00:14:04.639
<v Speaker 2>She spent everything she had on many physicians and was

155
00:14:04.679 --> 00:14:08.879
<v Speaker 2>nothing better, but rather grew worse, she touches the hem

156
00:14:08.960 --> 00:14:12.080
<v Speaker 2>of his garment. Power goes into her and knows what

157
00:14:12.240 --> 00:14:16.440
<v Speaker 2>Jesus says eight forty eight, daughter, be of good comfort.

158
00:14:17.080 --> 00:14:23.000
<v Speaker 2>Your faith has made you whole. He didn't say my power,

159
00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:28.399
<v Speaker 2>my virtue has made you hold my divinity, or anything

160
00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:31.960
<v Speaker 2>like that. He said, your faith has made you whole,

161
00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:37.559
<v Speaker 2>and your faith will make you whole. Go in peace,

162
00:14:37.679 --> 00:14:42.639
<v Speaker 2>go into shalloon, Go into wholeness, go into completeness. Jesus

163
00:14:42.679 --> 00:14:47.600
<v Speaker 2>spoke Aramaic and Hebrew, so he would have said go

164
00:14:47.840 --> 00:14:51.279
<v Speaker 2>in the little Greek it reads, go into peace, or

165
00:14:51.360 --> 00:14:55.480
<v Speaker 2>go into shalloon. Your faith has made you whole. Go

166
00:14:55.519 --> 00:15:01.360
<v Speaker 2>on into wholeness, completeness, wellness, nothing broken, nothing missing, It's available.

167
00:15:01.639 --> 00:15:08.679
<v Speaker 2>It's part of the Covenant. Verse forty nine. While he

168
00:15:08.759 --> 00:15:11.320
<v Speaker 2>yet spoke, there comes one from the rule of the

169
00:15:11.399 --> 00:15:16.320
<v Speaker 2>synagogue's house saying to him, your daughter's dead. Trouble not

170
00:15:16.679 --> 00:15:20.159
<v Speaker 2>the master. Well that's a bad report, if there ever

171
00:15:20.440 --> 00:15:24.120
<v Speaker 2>was one. That's a word of finality, or so it

172
00:15:24.120 --> 00:15:29.840
<v Speaker 2>would seem. Your daughter's dead. They ain't come and say

173
00:15:30.799 --> 00:15:36.679
<v Speaker 2>it's not looking too good. They said she's dead. Leave

174
00:15:36.720 --> 00:15:40.879
<v Speaker 2>him alone, don't trouble the master. And I think it's

175
00:15:41.240 --> 00:15:47.240
<v Speaker 2>we modern religion or modern The response by most people

176
00:15:47.799 --> 00:15:51.360
<v Speaker 2>today would be, oh, well, I guess it wasn't the

177
00:15:51.440 --> 00:15:57.399
<v Speaker 2>lord's will. She's dead. Wasn't the lord's will. Maybe God

178
00:15:57.440 --> 00:16:04.399
<v Speaker 2>had some sovereign reason. Well, that's too bad. But notice

179
00:16:04.519 --> 00:16:08.039
<v Speaker 2>Jesus' response. But when Jesus heard it, he answered him

180
00:16:08.039 --> 00:16:15.159
<v Speaker 2>and said, fear not, believe only she'll be made whole.

181
00:16:16.200 --> 00:16:20.840
<v Speaker 2>Fear not. I mean, that's the very thing that's going

182
00:16:20.919 --> 00:16:25.360
<v Speaker 2>to come on somebody, right there is fear dread says

183
00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:30.879
<v Speaker 2>fear not. But he says, you gotta do that's the

184
00:16:31.480 --> 00:16:34.360
<v Speaker 2>stop the fear. But you gotta do something in the positive.

185
00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:39.759
<v Speaker 2>He said, believe, fear not believe only. It's not enough

186
00:16:39.799 --> 00:16:41.919
<v Speaker 2>to say, okay, I won't fear, I won't fear got that.

187
00:16:42.279 --> 00:16:47.519
<v Speaker 2>Do something on the positive. Believe only only believe, only

188
00:16:47.600 --> 00:16:53.679
<v Speaker 2>believe all things are possible. Only believe fear not, only

189
00:16:53.720 --> 00:17:01.960
<v Speaker 2>believe she'll be made well. Faith is vital in healing.

190
00:17:02.120 --> 00:17:05.599
<v Speaker 2>Remember the two blind men Matthew nine, twenty eight twenty nine.

191
00:17:05.720 --> 00:17:08.519
<v Speaker 2>Jesus said, believe you that I am able to do this,

192
00:17:09.559 --> 00:17:12.039
<v Speaker 2>And then they say yay, Lord, And he said, according

193
00:17:12.079 --> 00:17:18.160
<v Speaker 2>to your faith, be it under you not according to

194
00:17:18.240 --> 00:17:22.839
<v Speaker 2>my power. That's how religion tends to read it. But

195
00:17:23.000 --> 00:17:27.279
<v Speaker 2>it says according to your faith. Remember, in his own hometown,

196
00:17:27.720 --> 00:17:31.559
<v Speaker 2>Nasa said he could do their no mighty work because

197
00:17:31.599 --> 00:17:37.160
<v Speaker 2>of their unbelief. He could do no mighty work he

198
00:17:37.279 --> 00:17:41.480
<v Speaker 2>wanted to, but he could do no mighty work because

199
00:17:41.519 --> 00:17:44.599
<v Speaker 2>of their unbelief. Now again, if he did the miracles

200
00:17:44.640 --> 00:17:49.680
<v Speaker 2>and signs and wonders to as God and to prove

201
00:17:49.759 --> 00:17:52.440
<v Speaker 2>his divinity, he would have done it there to say

202
00:17:52.440 --> 00:17:54.640
<v Speaker 2>I'll show you people. I mean, you ever want to

203
00:17:54.640 --> 00:17:58.359
<v Speaker 2>make a good impression. It's in your hometown. But he

204
00:17:58.440 --> 00:18:02.440
<v Speaker 2>could do there no mighty works. He said, I do

205
00:18:02.599 --> 00:18:05.759
<v Speaker 2>nothing of myself. It's the Father in me who does

206
00:18:05.799 --> 00:18:09.599
<v Speaker 2>the works. He said, the works that I do, you

207
00:18:09.720 --> 00:18:15.559
<v Speaker 2>will do also down fourteen twelve. We'll do them also

208
00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:21.680
<v Speaker 2>down fourteen twelve to fourteen hallelujah, Because it's the Father

209
00:18:21.839 --> 00:18:28.559
<v Speaker 2>in us who does the works. Look at Luke nine.

210
00:18:29.160 --> 00:18:33.599
<v Speaker 2>Just go down a little bit further Luke nine, Verse one.

211
00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:38.799
<v Speaker 2>Then Jesus called his twelve disciples together and gave them

212
00:18:38.960 --> 00:18:44.559
<v Speaker 2>power and authority Dunamus and Exusia. I gave them both

213
00:18:45.319 --> 00:18:55.160
<v Speaker 2>over all demons and to cure diseases, demons and diseases.

214
00:18:55.759 --> 00:19:02.000
<v Speaker 2>They couldn't stand the power of God. Demons plural and

215
00:19:02.119 --> 00:19:11.279
<v Speaker 2>diseases plural. Withluiah, fear not only believe now. Notice he

216
00:19:11.359 --> 00:19:15.079
<v Speaker 2>gave empower and authority of all demons and the cure diseases.

217
00:19:16.119 --> 00:19:24.799
<v Speaker 2>And he sent them to preach and to heal. He

218
00:19:24.960 --> 00:19:30.960
<v Speaker 2>sent them to preach the Kingdom of God, the rule

219
00:19:31.400 --> 00:19:35.400
<v Speaker 2>of God. He sent them to preach the Kingdom of

220
00:19:35.480 --> 00:19:41.480
<v Speaker 2>God and to heal the sick. They heard and were

221
00:19:41.559 --> 00:19:46.599
<v Speaker 2>healed again. People think Jesus just kind of blew into

222
00:19:46.680 --> 00:19:50.839
<v Speaker 2>town and just start healing people indiscriminately. But time and

223
00:19:50.880 --> 00:19:55.839
<v Speaker 2>again he preached and they heard. Faith came by hearing,

224
00:19:56.799 --> 00:20:00.559
<v Speaker 2>and they were healed. That's why it's so important to

225
00:20:00.799 --> 00:20:05.480
<v Speaker 2>hear in order to be healed. Now we're talking specifically

226
00:20:05.519 --> 00:20:09.960
<v Speaker 2>about healing, but this doesn't apply only the healing. I mean,

227
00:20:10.920 --> 00:20:14.759
<v Speaker 2>if we want to be victorious, if we want to

228
00:20:14.799 --> 00:20:19.079
<v Speaker 2>be an overcomer, we need to hear. If we want

229
00:20:19.079 --> 00:20:23.480
<v Speaker 2>to be holy, we need to hear. If we want

230
00:20:23.519 --> 00:20:30.960
<v Speaker 2>to be free, if we want to be protected, prospered,

231
00:20:31.000 --> 00:20:33.799
<v Speaker 2>whatever the case may be, it's we need to hear

232
00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:39.920
<v Speaker 2>the gospel. Faith comes by hearing. God watches over his

233
00:20:40.039 --> 00:20:44.200
<v Speaker 2>word to perform at Jeremiah one twelve. His word is

234
00:20:44.240 --> 00:20:49.599
<v Speaker 2>alive and powerful, sharper than any two edged sword Hebrews

235
00:20:49.640 --> 00:20:54.039
<v Speaker 2>four to twelve. Man shall not live by bread alone,

236
00:20:54.079 --> 00:20:56.240
<v Speaker 2>but by every word that comes out of the mouth

237
00:20:56.319 --> 00:21:02.039
<v Speaker 2>of God. We need to hear and be healed. He

238
00:21:02.160 --> 00:21:06.480
<v Speaker 2>sent them to preach the Kingdom of God and to

239
00:21:06.680 --> 00:21:10.480
<v Speaker 2>heal the sick. He didn't say, just go start healing people.

240
00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:15.000
<v Speaker 2>He said, preach the gospel, preach the Kingdom, and then

241
00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:20.039
<v Speaker 2>follow that up with healing. Look at verse six. And

242
00:21:20.119 --> 00:21:25.920
<v Speaker 2>they departed and went through the towns, preaching the Gospel

243
00:21:26.400 --> 00:21:31.960
<v Speaker 2>and healing everywhere, preaching and healing, preaching and healing, preaching

244
00:21:32.079 --> 00:21:37.880
<v Speaker 2>and healing. Hear and be healed. Now again, a lot

245
00:21:37.880 --> 00:21:42.200
<v Speaker 2>of folk they just wanted to be healed, but not

246
00:21:42.319 --> 00:21:50.359
<v Speaker 2>take the time to hear. I see it all the time.

247
00:21:53.039 --> 00:21:59.880
<v Speaker 2>Everybody wants an instantaneous miracle, and they do happen. But

248
00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:03.559
<v Speaker 2>it's more normal to build your faith on the word

249
00:22:03.640 --> 00:22:08.240
<v Speaker 2>of God and hear and be healed. Here and be healed.

250
00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:17.720
<v Speaker 2>But you know, many times it's at least as much,

251
00:22:19.599 --> 00:22:25.799
<v Speaker 2>if not more important to hear than it is to

252
00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:29.680
<v Speaker 2>be healed, or maybe I should say it this way.

253
00:22:29.839 --> 00:22:32.200
<v Speaker 2>We need to be at least as much, if not more,

254
00:22:32.319 --> 00:22:39.599
<v Speaker 2>interested in the healing as we are the healing. Again,

255
00:22:39.680 --> 00:22:42.599
<v Speaker 2>like I alluded to last week, if you announce a

256
00:22:42.680 --> 00:22:47.880
<v Speaker 2>meeting where there's going to be teaching on healing and

257
00:22:48.200 --> 00:22:51.240
<v Speaker 2>how to be healed, how to receive healing, people are

258
00:22:51.400 --> 00:22:54.720
<v Speaker 2>just kind of about it. Announce a meeting where there's

259
00:22:54.759 --> 00:22:57.519
<v Speaker 2>going to be signs and wonders and miracles, they give

260
00:22:57.640 --> 00:23:01.720
<v Speaker 2>five times as many people. People don't see the connection

261
00:23:01.880 --> 00:23:07.160
<v Speaker 2>between hearing and healing, between hearing and faith and receiving

262
00:23:07.279 --> 00:23:11.839
<v Speaker 2>the promises of God. Everybody just wants drive through breakthroughs.

263
00:23:12.400 --> 00:23:16.680
<v Speaker 2>They want to skip any of the effort on their

264
00:23:16.720 --> 00:23:20.759
<v Speaker 2>part and just lay hands on me so I can

265
00:23:20.839 --> 00:23:24.160
<v Speaker 2>go back and watch television, you know, just do it

266
00:23:24.240 --> 00:23:27.160
<v Speaker 2>for me. I don't have to get into the word.

267
00:23:27.200 --> 00:23:30.039
<v Speaker 2>I don't one to have to study healing scriptures, I don't

268
00:23:30.400 --> 00:23:33.359
<v Speaker 2>have to meditate them. Just can't you do your thing,

269
00:23:33.440 --> 00:23:35.759
<v Speaker 2>you know, anoime with oil and lay hands on me

270
00:23:35.880 --> 00:23:38.440
<v Speaker 2>and say shandlelah baba, and can't you just take care

271
00:23:38.480 --> 00:23:44.359
<v Speaker 2>of it that way? Well, we have our part to

272
00:23:44.400 --> 00:23:52.759
<v Speaker 2>play now. Notice they said they preached and were healed.

273
00:23:53.039 --> 00:23:59.279
<v Speaker 2>It's important not only what we hear, which is what

274
00:23:59.400 --> 00:24:03.880
<v Speaker 2>Jesus said in Mark four twenty four, right after in

275
00:24:04.599 --> 00:24:06.880
<v Speaker 2>Mark's account where he gave the parable of the so

276
00:24:07.119 --> 00:24:11.920
<v Speaker 2>or sows the seed. And if you look at that,

277
00:24:12.079 --> 00:24:15.039
<v Speaker 2>we taught on that some time ago on a Wednesday night,

278
00:24:15.759 --> 00:24:20.039
<v Speaker 2>all four of the types of soil, which are types

279
00:24:20.079 --> 00:24:25.559
<v Speaker 2>of people's lives, heart conditions, the hard ground, the thorny ground,

280
00:24:25.599 --> 00:24:29.400
<v Speaker 2>the stony ground, and the good ground. The first three

281
00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:33.519
<v Speaker 2>did not bring forth any fruit. Only the fourth, the

282
00:24:33.559 --> 00:24:38.160
<v Speaker 2>good ground, brought forth fruit. And of the good ground

283
00:24:38.480 --> 00:24:43.839
<v Speaker 2>the fourth ones only a third of them apparently brought

284
00:24:43.880 --> 00:24:49.400
<v Speaker 2>forth full fruit one hundredfold fruit because said, and some

285
00:24:49.480 --> 00:24:52.039
<v Speaker 2>brought in the good ground brought forth through thirty sixty

286
00:24:52.039 --> 00:24:56.640
<v Speaker 2>and one hundredfold. But my point is that all if

287
00:24:56.680 --> 00:24:59.319
<v Speaker 2>you look at that, we're not going to take time

288
00:24:59.319 --> 00:25:01.519
<v Speaker 2>to night. But if you look at it, all four

289
00:25:01.640 --> 00:25:04.119
<v Speaker 2>types of the soil of the heart, all of them

290
00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:08.480
<v Speaker 2>heard the word. It said, the sower sows the word.

291
00:25:10.839 --> 00:25:15.279
<v Speaker 2>And these are they which are on hard ground hear

292
00:25:15.319 --> 00:25:19.599
<v Speaker 2>the word, and then the devil comes immediately he takes

293
00:25:19.640 --> 00:25:22.839
<v Speaker 2>the seed that sown. Then it says, these are those

294
00:25:22.839 --> 00:25:28.559
<v Speaker 2>sown on thorny ground who hear the word, and then

295
00:25:28.759 --> 00:25:33.200
<v Speaker 2>it gets choked. And then these are those on heart

296
00:25:33.480 --> 00:25:38.000
<v Speaker 2>or on stony ground. They hear the word, but they

297
00:25:38.039 --> 00:25:42.480
<v Speaker 2>have no depth. Persecution, af fliction arises for the word's sake.

298
00:25:43.319 --> 00:25:47.519
<v Speaker 2>They quit, they give up. They all heard the word.

299
00:25:49.160 --> 00:25:52.240
<v Speaker 2>But he said, these on those on good ground heard

300
00:25:52.279 --> 00:25:55.480
<v Speaker 2>the word, same phrase, nothing different. I looked that into Greek.

301
00:25:55.519 --> 00:25:57.799
<v Speaker 2>It's the same Greek word. I say, well, maybe this

302
00:25:57.880 --> 00:26:01.599
<v Speaker 2>word hearing for the good ground a different word for hearing.

303
00:26:02.000 --> 00:26:07.839
<v Speaker 2>It's not. And he says the good ground heard the word,

304
00:26:08.359 --> 00:26:13.160
<v Speaker 2>but they brought forth fruit thirty sixty and one hundredfold.

305
00:26:15.720 --> 00:26:18.920
<v Speaker 2>And then just a few verses after that, Jesus says,

306
00:26:19.519 --> 00:26:26.720
<v Speaker 2>take heed what you hear, Take heed what you hear.

307
00:26:28.480 --> 00:26:33.079
<v Speaker 2>And then over in Luke, when Luke tells about the

308
00:26:33.119 --> 00:26:38.759
<v Speaker 2>sol or sowing the word, he says, take heed how

309
00:26:39.680 --> 00:26:44.839
<v Speaker 2>you hear Luke eight eighteen. So it's not only important

310
00:26:45.240 --> 00:26:49.160
<v Speaker 2>what you hear. Most of us realize that, hopefully we do.

311
00:26:50.480 --> 00:26:54.599
<v Speaker 2>You can't feed on a bunch of worldly, cardinal secular

312
00:26:54.720 --> 00:27:02.319
<v Speaker 2>stuff and fly like an eagle doesn't work. I mean,

313
00:27:02.319 --> 00:27:05.599
<v Speaker 2>people want to do it, but I've never seen anybody

314
00:27:05.680 --> 00:27:10.799
<v Speaker 2>do it successfully. Yet those that fly like eagles are

315
00:27:10.799 --> 00:27:15.480
<v Speaker 2>those that seek after God and hunger after the word,

316
00:27:17.079 --> 00:27:19.640
<v Speaker 2>read it and meditate it, and study it, and press

317
00:27:19.680 --> 00:27:24.079
<v Speaker 2>into God and worship and pray. So he tells us

318
00:27:24.119 --> 00:27:26.880
<v Speaker 2>it's not only important what we hear. Like I started

319
00:27:26.880 --> 00:27:29.039
<v Speaker 2>to say, most of the things, realize it's important what

320
00:27:29.079 --> 00:27:33.599
<v Speaker 2>we hear. But then he says, take heed, how you hear?

321
00:27:34.079 --> 00:27:39.359
<v Speaker 2>What you hear? If you're hearing truth, hearing the word

322
00:27:39.400 --> 00:27:43.000
<v Speaker 2>of God, there's obviously a certain way to hear it

323
00:27:45.160 --> 00:27:48.359
<v Speaker 2>that produces fruit thirty sixty and one hundred fold, Because

324
00:27:48.440 --> 00:27:53.039
<v Speaker 2>all four of them heard it same word, but only one.

325
00:27:53.119 --> 00:28:00.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm brought forth fruit. Take heed how you hear? And

326
00:28:00.640 --> 00:28:05.240
<v Speaker 2>and we covered this and the teaching on how to

327
00:28:05.279 --> 00:28:07.880
<v Speaker 2>bring forth thirty sixty and one hundredfold. When I did

328
00:28:07.920 --> 00:28:11.480
<v Speaker 2>a message on that, and I knew it was there,

329
00:28:11.480 --> 00:28:13.720
<v Speaker 2>but I'd never taken a time to put it together.

330
00:28:13.839 --> 00:28:17.960
<v Speaker 2>So I went to Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. All

331
00:28:18.000 --> 00:28:21.240
<v Speaker 2>of them tell the parable of the sewer. All of

332
00:28:21.279 --> 00:28:24.319
<v Speaker 2>them say the good ground brought forth thirty six hundred fold,

333
00:28:24.599 --> 00:28:27.119
<v Speaker 2>and every one of them gives it just a little

334
00:28:27.400 --> 00:28:30.720
<v Speaker 2>bit of a nuance of meaning to the word hearing

335
00:28:30.880 --> 00:28:34.920
<v Speaker 2>that they did that. The other three types of soil

336
00:28:35.039 --> 00:28:40.200
<v Speaker 2>did not do. The good soil heard a certain way

337
00:28:40.279 --> 00:28:43.319
<v Speaker 2>that none of the others did. And Matthew gives us

338
00:28:43.319 --> 00:28:45.519
<v Speaker 2>a hint to it. Luke gives us a hint to it.

339
00:28:46.160 --> 00:28:48.880
<v Speaker 2>Mark gives us into it. John gives a hint to it.

340
00:28:48.920 --> 00:28:52.160
<v Speaker 2>They all add a certain meaning, and when you put

341
00:28:52.200 --> 00:28:58.640
<v Speaker 2>it together, it lets us know that. Here's how we

342
00:28:58.720 --> 00:29:03.039
<v Speaker 2>bring forth thirty sixty one hundredfold harvest on the word.

343
00:29:03.880 --> 00:29:09.039
<v Speaker 2>We hear the word, yes, but we have to hear

344
00:29:09.079 --> 00:29:15.039
<v Speaker 2>it and receive it. That's what Mark brings out. Says,

345
00:29:15.079 --> 00:29:18.480
<v Speaker 2>they heard the word and received it and brought forth

346
00:29:18.480 --> 00:29:22.000
<v Speaker 2>through thirty six and one hundredfold. Now, the word receive

347
00:29:22.400 --> 00:29:25.759
<v Speaker 2>in the Greek means too. You know, most people say, well,

348
00:29:25.759 --> 00:29:27.720
<v Speaker 2>I receive it. Any time I hear the word, I

349
00:29:27.839 --> 00:29:32.519
<v Speaker 2>receive it. Well do we The word receive It means

350
00:29:32.559 --> 00:29:41.160
<v Speaker 2>to accept, delight in and brace with obedience, to take

351
00:29:41.240 --> 00:29:48.200
<v Speaker 2>the word and embrace it with obedience, to delight in it.

352
00:29:50.160 --> 00:29:54.160
<v Speaker 2>How many people delight in the word of God that

353
00:29:54.200 --> 00:30:02.200
<v Speaker 2>you can think of? I mean, if everybody delight in

354
00:30:02.240 --> 00:30:04.279
<v Speaker 2>the word of God, there's not be an empty seat

355
00:30:04.279 --> 00:30:14.400
<v Speaker 2>here tonight. The word also means to acknowledge as one's own.

356
00:30:14.559 --> 00:30:19.880
<v Speaker 2>They heard it and received it. Receive means to acknowledge

357
00:30:19.880 --> 00:30:23.039
<v Speaker 2>his one's own. I think that's how fayir Greek English

358
00:30:23.160 --> 00:30:27.559
<v Speaker 2>lexicon defines it, to acknowledge is one's own. So they

359
00:30:27.599 --> 00:30:30.880
<v Speaker 2>hear it and they go, that's mine. I'm taking that

360
00:30:31.680 --> 00:30:37.480
<v Speaker 2>by his strikes, I was healed, he's yahweh rafa. I

361
00:30:37.559 --> 00:30:39.920
<v Speaker 2>acknowledge that as mayer, and I'm going to take that.

362
00:30:40.240 --> 00:30:44.319
<v Speaker 2>The Lord is my shepherd, the Lord is my heal.

363
00:30:44.400 --> 00:30:47.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm acknowledge that, not he is the shepherd or a

364
00:30:47.400 --> 00:30:51.519
<v Speaker 2>shepherd or your shepherd. He's my shepherd. And I shall

365
00:30:51.559 --> 00:30:55.480
<v Speaker 2>not want acknowledge it as your own. And you hear

366
00:30:55.599 --> 00:30:59.200
<v Speaker 2>the word of God. Don't think, oh, that's be nice

367
00:30:59.240 --> 00:31:02.480
<v Speaker 2>for the have or oh for some people. You know. No,

368
00:31:02.599 --> 00:31:04.480
<v Speaker 2>I acknowledge that is my own. I take it. I

369
00:31:04.599 --> 00:31:08.000
<v Speaker 2>cata lombano, and I seize it. I grab it, I

370
00:31:08.039 --> 00:31:11.559
<v Speaker 2>tackle it, I make it my own, and I'm not

371
00:31:11.680 --> 00:31:17.440
<v Speaker 2>letting go. It's mine. Hallelujah. You want it, you get

372
00:31:17.480 --> 00:31:22.519
<v Speaker 2>your own. This is mine. Oh here, I'll give you

373
00:31:22.559 --> 00:31:27.799
<v Speaker 2>some of mine. Do your own work. To your own study. Okay,

374
00:31:27.839 --> 00:31:30.880
<v Speaker 2>So Mark brings out they hear it and receive it,

375
00:31:32.920 --> 00:31:56.000
<v Speaker 2>and then Matthew says, they hear it and understanding what

376
00:31:56.160 --> 00:32:00.160
<v Speaker 2>is this saying? How does this apply in my life?

377
00:32:00.799 --> 00:32:04.200
<v Speaker 2>How does this work? I'm going to study this so

378
00:32:04.240 --> 00:32:09.759
<v Speaker 2>I can understand it. And then Luke adds another little

379
00:32:09.839 --> 00:32:15.799
<v Speaker 2>nuance and Luke says, they heard the word and in

380
00:32:15.880 --> 00:32:25.160
<v Speaker 2>an honest and good heart, possess it in an honest

381
00:32:26.160 --> 00:32:31.119
<v Speaker 2>and good heart. So obviously the others didn't have that attribute.

382
00:32:31.119 --> 00:32:34.079
<v Speaker 2>And Jesus said, to good ground, they heard the word

383
00:32:34.119 --> 00:32:37.240
<v Speaker 2>in an honest heart. Lord showed me. If I need

384
00:32:37.240 --> 00:32:39.799
<v Speaker 2>to change, I'll change. If I need to repent, I'll repent.

385
00:32:39.839 --> 00:32:41.880
<v Speaker 2>If I'm doing something wrong, I want to know it.

386
00:32:42.359 --> 00:32:46.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm not going to harden my heart. I humble myself Lord,

387
00:32:46.279 --> 00:32:49.279
<v Speaker 2>and I repent. If I need to repent in an

388
00:32:49.400 --> 00:32:54.039
<v Speaker 2>honest and a good heart, I receive this, Lord, I

389
00:32:54.160 --> 00:32:58.119
<v Speaker 2>receive this. And then Luke also adds, I said I

390
00:32:58.200 --> 00:32:59.920
<v Speaker 2>need to crack something I said. Is that Matthew, Mark,

391
00:33:00.160 --> 00:33:03.000
<v Speaker 2>Luke and John John doesn't give it. It's Matthew, Mark

392
00:33:03.039 --> 00:33:06.920
<v Speaker 2>and Luke. Because I was looking at the four things there.

393
00:33:06.960 --> 00:33:09.319
<v Speaker 2>But it's Luke that gives these two things. He says,

394
00:33:09.559 --> 00:33:13.880
<v Speaker 2>in an honest and good heart, they possess it. They

395
00:33:13.920 --> 00:33:17.359
<v Speaker 2>possess the word of God in an honest and good heart,

396
00:33:17.759 --> 00:33:25.799
<v Speaker 2>and bring forth fruit. The good ground receives the word,

397
00:33:25.839 --> 00:33:28.079
<v Speaker 2>they hear it, and they receive it in an honest

398
00:33:28.160 --> 00:33:31.359
<v Speaker 2>and good heart. They possess it in an honest and

399
00:33:31.440 --> 00:33:37.359
<v Speaker 2>good heart, and they bring forth fruit with who can

400
00:33:37.400 --> 00:33:45.839
<v Speaker 2>help me? They bring forth fruit with somebody say it, huh, nope,

401
00:33:46.440 --> 00:33:52.400
<v Speaker 2>patience who Pomenae? Well, we talked about two weeks ago

402
00:33:54.039 --> 00:33:59.319
<v Speaker 2>the power twins faith and patience. Through faith and who Pomenae,

403
00:33:59.359 --> 00:34:03.799
<v Speaker 2>we had the promises. You have need of patience, you

404
00:34:03.799 --> 00:34:06.960
<v Speaker 2>have need of who pomenae, that after you've done the

405
00:34:06.960 --> 00:34:10.760
<v Speaker 2>will of God, you might receive the promise. Run the

406
00:34:10.880 --> 00:34:16.599
<v Speaker 2>race with who pomenae. With patience, Let who pomenae have

407
00:34:16.840 --> 00:34:20.840
<v Speaker 2>her perfect work, that you may be perfect and entire,

408
00:34:21.320 --> 00:34:25.559
<v Speaker 2>wanting nothing. And Jesus said in Luke, they brought forth

409
00:34:25.639 --> 00:34:30.280
<v Speaker 2>thirty sixty and one hundredfold by receiving the word and

410
00:34:30.440 --> 00:34:42.280
<v Speaker 2>exercising who pomenae, patience, steadfastness, endurance, perseverance, energetic resistance, the

411
00:34:42.320 --> 00:34:49.760
<v Speaker 2>power of endurance without complaint. They endured, they stood, they

412
00:34:49.800 --> 00:34:51.840
<v Speaker 2>did not quit, they would not give up, and they

413
00:34:51.920 --> 00:34:55.159
<v Speaker 2>didn't complain and murmuring gripe about it the whole time.

414
00:34:56.119 --> 00:35:00.760
<v Speaker 2>It was cheerful endurance. Who I got the vicar? But

415
00:35:00.840 --> 00:35:03.639
<v Speaker 2>I can tell you're not feeling good? How bias stripes

416
00:35:03.679 --> 00:35:06.639
<v Speaker 2>some heal though he's my healer. Yeah, but I heard

417
00:35:06.679 --> 00:35:11.880
<v Speaker 2>about Oh I just rejoice that he's my healer. I

418
00:35:11.920 --> 00:35:15.719
<v Speaker 2>mean some folk. You just you ask him how you're

419
00:35:15.719 --> 00:35:16.480
<v Speaker 2>doing waiting?

420
00:35:16.559 --> 00:35:17.440
<v Speaker 1>Oh?

421
00:35:17.480 --> 00:35:20.440
<v Speaker 2>Why did I say that? I should have known better?

422
00:35:21.920 --> 00:35:24.039
<v Speaker 2>Because for the next twenty minutes, you're going to get

423
00:35:24.039 --> 00:35:29.840
<v Speaker 2>an organ recital. This hurts. This organ hurts, and this hurts,

424
00:35:29.840 --> 00:35:33.679
<v Speaker 2>and this hurts, and this hurts. And it's like they

425
00:35:33.760 --> 00:35:39.519
<v Speaker 2>just keep rehearsing the problem. At some point we need

426
00:35:39.559 --> 00:35:51.800
<v Speaker 2>to shift and exercise patience, cheerful endurance without complaint, energetic resistance.

427
00:35:53.159 --> 00:35:56.400
<v Speaker 2>So that's how we That's why g said, be careful

428
00:35:57.039 --> 00:36:02.440
<v Speaker 2>how you hear Luke at eighteen? Oh again, we're not

429
00:36:02.599 --> 00:36:05.159
<v Speaker 2>left in the dark. Like, oh, he told me to

430
00:36:05.199 --> 00:36:07.280
<v Speaker 2>be careful what I hear and how I hear? But

431
00:36:07.800 --> 00:36:11.960
<v Speaker 2>how am I supposed to hear? We're not left in

432
00:36:12.000 --> 00:36:15.079
<v Speaker 2>the dark. Then if we'll just dig a little. We

433
00:36:15.239 --> 00:36:19.119
<v Speaker 2>find out how we're supposed to hear. We are supposed

434
00:36:19.199 --> 00:36:24.079
<v Speaker 2>to hear with a love and embracing and a delighting,

435
00:36:24.239 --> 00:36:29.000
<v Speaker 2>with obedience, acknowledging it is one's own, understanding it in

436
00:36:29.039 --> 00:36:32.280
<v Speaker 2>an honest and good heart, grabbing hold of it and

437
00:36:32.440 --> 00:36:37.800
<v Speaker 2>exercising who pomonade patients, steadfast endurance. And then he says

438
00:36:37.920 --> 00:36:42.760
<v Speaker 2>that kind of here will bring forth fruit with thirty,

439
00:36:42.880 --> 00:36:47.000
<v Speaker 2>sixty and one hundredfold results. Don't you want that? I do.

440
00:36:49.440 --> 00:36:52.760
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to be hard, stony or thorny ground

441
00:36:54.280 --> 00:36:56.519
<v Speaker 2>for the word. I want to bring forth fruit. And

442
00:36:57.000 --> 00:37:00.719
<v Speaker 2>I'm not satisfied with thirty. I want to move on

443
00:37:00.760 --> 00:37:03.800
<v Speaker 2>to the sixty and I don't want to get satisfied

444
00:37:03.840 --> 00:37:06.599
<v Speaker 2>or six. I want to move on to the hundredfold. Well,

445
00:37:06.639 --> 00:37:08.960
<v Speaker 2>how could you bring forth one hundredfold on the word?

446
00:37:09.079 --> 00:37:17.199
<v Speaker 2>Jesus said we could. He never lied Hebrews four two.

447
00:37:19.119 --> 00:37:23.639
<v Speaker 2>Look at it sometime it says the word preached did

448
00:37:24.199 --> 00:37:33.719
<v Speaker 2>not profit them, not being mixed with help me faith.

449
00:37:36.199 --> 00:37:40.840
<v Speaker 2>The word was preached, but it didn't help them because

450
00:37:40.880 --> 00:37:46.719
<v Speaker 2>they didn't mix faith with it. Well, that answers a

451
00:37:46.719 --> 00:37:50.239
<v Speaker 2>lot of question, right there, A lot of people don't

452
00:37:50.280 --> 00:37:52.400
<v Speaker 2>mix faith with it when the words preach, you know,

453
00:37:52.480 --> 00:37:56.639
<v Speaker 2>if they mix with it doubt, I don't know. I

454
00:37:56.760 --> 00:38:03.800
<v Speaker 2>just don't know about that. Unbelieve that can't be fear well,

455
00:38:03.840 --> 00:38:07.119
<v Speaker 2>that never work, and on and on. But we need

456
00:38:07.159 --> 00:38:11.039
<v Speaker 2>to mix faith with it we hear the word of God.

457
00:38:11.119 --> 00:38:18.000
<v Speaker 2>It's like, again, what is faith? Acting on what you hear,

458
00:38:18.360 --> 00:38:20.840
<v Speaker 2>acting on the word of God, believing it and acting

459
00:38:20.920 --> 00:38:23.719
<v Speaker 2>on it, acting on it before you see it, before

460
00:38:23.760 --> 00:38:31.000
<v Speaker 2>you feel it. Somebody's talking to me after the service recently,

461
00:38:31.119 --> 00:38:33.800
<v Speaker 2>I've maybe been last Wednesday or something. They said, you

462
00:38:33.840 --> 00:38:36.440
<v Speaker 2>know a good way that they said that they found it.

463
00:38:37.559 --> 00:38:41.840
<v Speaker 2>Understand faith because it can seem kind of nebulous. Sometime

464
00:38:41.960 --> 00:38:47.159
<v Speaker 2>they say confidence, confidence, confidence in God and what he

465
00:38:47.280 --> 00:38:50.280
<v Speaker 2>said and what he'll do. They mix confidence with it.

466
00:38:50.360 --> 00:38:53.039
<v Speaker 2>God said it all right, I had confidence in that,

467
00:38:55.280 --> 00:38:58.960
<v Speaker 2>and Hebrews eleven one does say in some translations, and

468
00:38:59.079 --> 00:39:12.079
<v Speaker 2>faith is the confidence of the things we hope for. Hallelujah.

469
00:39:12.400 --> 00:39:19.960
<v Speaker 2>We need to hear. We need to hear and be healed. See,

470
00:39:20.000 --> 00:39:34.719
<v Speaker 2>we need to be proactive in hearing. Prevention is always

471
00:39:34.880 --> 00:39:38.480
<v Speaker 2>better than cure. I can't think of a single time

472
00:39:38.519 --> 00:39:42.519
<v Speaker 2>when it's not. I mean it is. I mean you

473
00:39:42.559 --> 00:39:45.159
<v Speaker 2>can go down the line everything and anything. I can't

474
00:39:45.159 --> 00:39:48.519
<v Speaker 2>think of a single time where prevention is not better

475
00:39:48.559 --> 00:39:51.920
<v Speaker 2>than cure. It's better to not get sick than to

476
00:39:52.719 --> 00:39:58.719
<v Speaker 2>get healed. It's better to avoid car trouble than to

477
00:39:58.760 --> 00:40:03.400
<v Speaker 2>have car trouble. It's better to stay out of debt

478
00:40:03.440 --> 00:40:08.239
<v Speaker 2>than to have to get out of debt. It's better

479
00:40:08.480 --> 00:40:12.360
<v Speaker 2>to not backslide than to have to repent and get

480
00:40:12.440 --> 00:40:16.960
<v Speaker 2>right with God, and on and on. We need to

481
00:40:17.000 --> 00:40:21.239
<v Speaker 2>be proactive in hearing the word of God. Don't wait

482
00:40:21.320 --> 00:40:25.800
<v Speaker 2>till you're sick before you start studying healing and getting

483
00:40:25.800 --> 00:40:30.119
<v Speaker 2>into the Word of God. Stay, build up in the word.

484
00:40:31.639 --> 00:40:36.159
<v Speaker 2>I mean, we need to realize this. This is a

485
00:40:36.280 --> 00:40:42.079
<v Speaker 2>dangerous world. Truth be told. We need healing every day.

486
00:40:42.880 --> 00:40:46.000
<v Speaker 2>There's all kinds of stuff out there that you and

487
00:40:46.039 --> 00:40:49.679
<v Speaker 2>I aren't even aware of. We need healing every day

488
00:40:49.719 --> 00:40:56.360
<v Speaker 2>all the time. And it's better to live healed than

489
00:40:56.440 --> 00:41:00.519
<v Speaker 2>to get healing, or, let me say better, it's better

490
00:41:00.559 --> 00:41:05.400
<v Speaker 2>to be in health than to always beginning healing. A

491
00:41:05.400 --> 00:41:07.880
<v Speaker 2>lot of people just content if they could just get

492
00:41:07.920 --> 00:41:10.599
<v Speaker 2>healing all the time. Get set, get healed, get set,

493
00:41:10.719 --> 00:41:13.239
<v Speaker 2>get here, get set, get heal, get sick, Get here,

494
00:41:13.360 --> 00:41:16.440
<v Speaker 2>get sick, get heal, get set, get healed. It's a whole

495
00:41:16.480 --> 00:41:22.440
<v Speaker 2>lot better just than live in health. Three John two, Beloved,

496
00:41:24.519 --> 00:41:30.599
<v Speaker 2>I pray that you prosper and be healed. No, be

497
00:41:30.760 --> 00:41:37.639
<v Speaker 2>in health, be in health, Be in health, be in health.

498
00:41:38.320 --> 00:41:42.440
<v Speaker 2>Proverbs four twenty to twenty two. My son, attend to

499
00:41:42.480 --> 00:41:45.480
<v Speaker 2>my words and climb your ear to my sayings. Let

500
00:41:45.519 --> 00:41:48.239
<v Speaker 2>them not depart from thy eyes. Keep them in the

501
00:41:48.280 --> 00:41:51.079
<v Speaker 2>midst of thine heart for their life, to those who

502
00:41:51.119 --> 00:41:59.760
<v Speaker 2>find them in health, to all their flesh Exodus fifteen

503
00:41:59.760 --> 00:42:04.000
<v Speaker 2>to twenty six. I am the Lord, your physician, your healer.

504
00:42:05.639 --> 00:42:09.679
<v Speaker 2>Exus twenty three twenty five. I'll take sickness away from

505
00:42:09.719 --> 00:42:12.760
<v Speaker 2>the midst of you. Well, if sickness is taken away,

506
00:42:12.760 --> 00:42:16.679
<v Speaker 2>you're going to be in health. Deuteronomy seven point fifteen

507
00:42:16.760 --> 00:42:20.719
<v Speaker 2>says the same thing, I will remove all sickness from you.

508
00:42:22.639 --> 00:42:30.000
<v Speaker 2>That's a promise you want to embrace. Acknowledge as your own,

509
00:42:31.840 --> 00:42:40.719
<v Speaker 2>understand it, seize it, and exercise patience and bring forth

510
00:42:40.760 --> 00:42:48.119
<v Speaker 2>fruit on it. Hallelujah. It's good to be proactive when

511
00:42:48.119 --> 00:42:51.880
<v Speaker 2>it comes to hearing the word of God. People often

512
00:42:52.119 --> 00:42:59.639
<v Speaker 2>give the word no place, in no time. They're too busy,

513
00:43:00.880 --> 00:43:03.280
<v Speaker 2>so they give no time, no place for the word.

514
00:43:03.719 --> 00:43:07.320
<v Speaker 2>And if somebody is sick or disease, they need to

515
00:43:07.360 --> 00:43:11.400
<v Speaker 2>get extra doses of it. They need to double up

516
00:43:11.440 --> 00:43:19.840
<v Speaker 2>on it, triple up on it. We need to be proactive.

517
00:43:20.119 --> 00:43:22.880
<v Speaker 2>It works. You know, people don't give the word any

518
00:43:22.920 --> 00:43:26.079
<v Speaker 2>place and they don't get a lot of fruit. But

519
00:43:26.440 --> 00:43:29.960
<v Speaker 2>fortunately the opposite is true. If we give the word place,

520
00:43:30.039 --> 00:43:33.880
<v Speaker 2>give it first place, attend to it, it brings forth

521
00:43:33.960 --> 00:43:38.360
<v Speaker 2>much fruit thirty sixty one hundred and fold. God's word

522
00:43:38.639 --> 00:43:46.719
<v Speaker 2>is medicine. His word is alive. His word is sharper

523
00:43:46.760 --> 00:43:54.199
<v Speaker 2>than any two edged sword. It's alive. Hallelujah. Health is invaluable.

524
00:43:55.719 --> 00:44:00.320
<v Speaker 2>It is invaluable. You can't put a price on your health.

525
00:44:02.719 --> 00:44:07.280
<v Speaker 2>It's probably the most valuable possession we have, or one

526
00:44:07.400 --> 00:44:16.079
<v Speaker 2>of them. It's invaluable. So it would pay us rich

527
00:44:16.199 --> 00:44:19.199
<v Speaker 2>dividends to be in the word consistently regularly because his

528
00:44:19.360 --> 00:44:26.119
<v Speaker 2>word is medicine. I thank God, I'm walking in divine

529
00:44:26.159 --> 00:44:29.079
<v Speaker 2>health by and large, But there's times every now and

530
00:44:29.119 --> 00:44:32.039
<v Speaker 2>then where I get under attack, and man, I oh,

531
00:44:32.119 --> 00:44:34.400
<v Speaker 2>the thing I get out of that is like sickness

532
00:44:34.519 --> 00:44:37.800
<v Speaker 2>is terrible. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it.

533
00:44:37.840 --> 00:44:41.079
<v Speaker 2>I hate it. You have no energy, you have no

534
00:44:41.239 --> 00:44:44.920
<v Speaker 2>desire to do anything. You feel miserable, you just want

535
00:44:44.960 --> 00:44:48.239
<v Speaker 2>to lay in bed. Or if you're in pain, you're

536
00:44:48.280 --> 00:44:52.199
<v Speaker 2>just in constant pain that affects everything you do and

537
00:44:52.239 --> 00:44:56.599
<v Speaker 2>you're just not yourself. But when you're feeling good, it's great.

538
00:44:58.519 --> 00:45:03.880
<v Speaker 2>Health is invaluable. Why would somebody not have time for

539
00:45:04.039 --> 00:45:09.840
<v Speaker 2>something that is medicine to all their flesh and where

540
00:45:09.840 --> 00:45:14.960
<v Speaker 2>they could hear and be healed. Why would they not

541
00:45:15.039 --> 00:45:17.360
<v Speaker 2>want to bring forth fruit? Well, they do want to

542
00:45:17.360 --> 00:45:19.519
<v Speaker 2>bring forth fruit, but they don't want to do what

543
00:45:19.559 --> 00:45:24.000
<v Speaker 2>it takes to bring forth fruit. Thirty sixty one hundredfold.

544
00:45:25.320 --> 00:45:29.039
<v Speaker 2>Where we at Luke nine? What six is that where

545
00:45:29.039 --> 00:45:34.000
<v Speaker 2>we left off? Or do we get the eleven six? Okay,

546
00:45:34.039 --> 00:45:37.960
<v Speaker 2>go to verse eleven Luke nine to eleven. And the people,

547
00:45:38.000 --> 00:45:41.880
<v Speaker 2>when they knew it, followed him, and he received them

548
00:45:42.000 --> 00:45:45.320
<v Speaker 2>and spoke under them of the Kingdom of God, and

549
00:45:45.920 --> 00:45:49.960
<v Speaker 2>healed them that had need of healing. Again, they heard

550
00:45:50.400 --> 00:45:55.000
<v Speaker 2>and were healed. We think it was just an indiscriminate thing. No,

551
00:45:55.119 --> 00:45:58.400
<v Speaker 2>he spoke to them the Kingdom of God. He preached

552
00:45:58.400 --> 00:46:08.000
<v Speaker 2>the Gospel, and they were healed. They heard and were healed. Hallelujah.

553
00:46:08.400 --> 00:46:11.199
<v Speaker 2>Can't go to Luke four, look at a few mormill

554
00:46:11.280 --> 00:46:28.199
<v Speaker 2>clothes Luke four and verse forty three. And he said,

555
00:46:28.280 --> 00:46:33.800
<v Speaker 2>under them, I must preach the Kingdom of God. See

556
00:46:33.840 --> 00:46:37.320
<v Speaker 2>Jesus knew what was important. He and said, I must

557
00:46:37.360 --> 00:46:42.840
<v Speaker 2>go heal. He said, I must preach. I must preach

558
00:46:42.920 --> 00:46:46.960
<v Speaker 2>the Kingdom, the rule and reign of God. I must

559
00:46:47.039 --> 00:46:50.639
<v Speaker 2>preach the Kingdom of God to other cities. For them

560
00:46:50.719 --> 00:46:54.880
<v Speaker 2>I sand, and he preached in the synagogues of Galilee.

561
00:46:55.320 --> 00:46:58.519
<v Speaker 2>Now notice chapter five, verse one. And it came to

562
00:46:58.679 --> 00:47:03.880
<v Speaker 2>pass that as the people pressed upon him to hear

563
00:47:04.280 --> 00:47:08.760
<v Speaker 2>the word of God, not to be healed, but to

564
00:47:08.840 --> 00:47:15.840
<v Speaker 2>hear the word of God. That's hunger. They pressed on

565
00:47:15.960 --> 00:47:23.440
<v Speaker 2>him to hear the word of God. Nowadays, it seems

566
00:47:24.400 --> 00:47:28.679
<v Speaker 2>most people are just so apathetic and complacent and lacks

567
00:47:28.719 --> 00:47:33.480
<v Speaker 2>of days ago about the Word of God. In hearing it,

568
00:47:33.480 --> 00:47:42.039
<v Speaker 2>it's saying, well, you know, maybe maybe not some of

569
00:47:42.079 --> 00:47:46.119
<v Speaker 2>you were a part of it. But I remember in

570
00:47:46.159 --> 00:47:50.760
<v Speaker 2>the charismatic renewal Word of faith renewal in the seventies

571
00:47:50.760 --> 00:47:53.400
<v Speaker 2>and eighties, people are so hungry for the Word of

572
00:47:53.440 --> 00:47:56.840
<v Speaker 2>God because it was like a brand new, fresh revelation.

573
00:47:57.199 --> 00:48:03.199
<v Speaker 2>I mean we would wait in line outside auditoriums for

574
00:48:03.239 --> 00:48:06.480
<v Speaker 2>an hour or more just to get in there and

575
00:48:06.599 --> 00:48:09.320
<v Speaker 2>run and get in the front seat where you could

576
00:48:09.320 --> 00:48:13.119
<v Speaker 2>get under the spout where the glory came out. Now

577
00:48:13.639 --> 00:48:16.639
<v Speaker 2>like the church sign I saw. Now, it's like come

578
00:48:16.679 --> 00:48:24.840
<v Speaker 2>early so you can get a back seat. That's where

579
00:48:25.199 --> 00:48:29.280
<v Speaker 2>you know what a change in attitude. I mean in

580
00:48:29.360 --> 00:48:32.079
<v Speaker 2>that word of faith charismatic. They know people couldn't get

581
00:48:32.199 --> 00:48:34.360
<v Speaker 2>enough of the Word of God, and they were hauling

582
00:48:34.400 --> 00:48:38.440
<v Speaker 2>tape players around everywhere. I don't know how they'd manufacture

583
00:48:38.519 --> 00:48:41.119
<v Speaker 2>enough cassette tapes that time. I mean they were going

584
00:48:41.199 --> 00:48:44.039
<v Speaker 2>right and left. We were copying them, duplicating them, passing

585
00:48:44.039 --> 00:48:46.440
<v Speaker 2>them out. Here. Have you heard this? No, here, give

586
00:48:46.440 --> 00:48:48.280
<v Speaker 2>me let me have that series on here. You gotta

587
00:48:48.320 --> 00:48:51.199
<v Speaker 2>check this out. Okay, I'll take that. Man. We were

588
00:48:51.280 --> 00:48:55.760
<v Speaker 2>hungry for the Word. I'm still that way. But I

589
00:48:55.800 --> 00:48:58.880
<v Speaker 2>know a lot of people who were around then that

590
00:48:58.920 --> 00:49:04.199
<v Speaker 2>they're not, Oh, anything new, it's on TV. What's the

591
00:49:04.280 --> 00:49:11.320
<v Speaker 2>latest video game? What's the latest attraction at the theme park?

592
00:49:12.199 --> 00:49:15.480
<v Speaker 2>I need something to tickle my ears. What's the latest

593
00:49:16.360 --> 00:49:19.920
<v Speaker 2>fatty'sh teaching or something, or or you know what's the

594
00:49:20.000 --> 00:49:24.920
<v Speaker 2>latest spectacular thing going on? Said, just the word, the word,

595
00:49:25.719 --> 00:49:29.599
<v Speaker 2>the word. That's where the life is, that's where the path.

596
00:49:29.719 --> 00:49:34.199
<v Speaker 2>They pressed on him to hear the word of God

597
00:49:37.760 --> 00:49:40.159
<v Speaker 2>now not his verse twelve. And it came to pass

598
00:49:40.679 --> 00:49:42.960
<v Speaker 2>when he was in a certain city. Behold a man

599
00:49:43.079 --> 00:49:46.880
<v Speaker 2>full of leprosy, who's seeing Jesus fell on his face

600
00:49:46.920 --> 00:49:51.599
<v Speaker 2>and beside him, saying, Lord, if you will, you can

601
00:49:51.679 --> 00:49:57.199
<v Speaker 2>make me clean. But notice he wasn't healed. Believing that

602
00:49:58.039 --> 00:50:03.199
<v Speaker 2>he believed Jesus could good like a lot of people,

603
00:50:03.360 --> 00:50:07.079
<v Speaker 2>but he wasn't healed. He was still full of leprosy.

604
00:50:07.119 --> 00:50:10.559
<v Speaker 2>Even though he believed Jesus could. His problem was he

605
00:50:10.599 --> 00:50:16.639
<v Speaker 2>wasn't sure that he wanted to. It was right on

606
00:50:16.719 --> 00:50:19.239
<v Speaker 2>the money what you said at the opening. You know

607
00:50:19.360 --> 00:50:22.639
<v Speaker 2>he wants they say, asked Jesus, if you want to,

608
00:50:22.719 --> 00:50:25.280
<v Speaker 2>you can make me ho And he said I want to.

609
00:50:25.639 --> 00:50:29.239
<v Speaker 2>One translate said, of course I want to. He wants

610
00:50:29.320 --> 00:50:36.079
<v Speaker 2>us healed, he wants his curity, wants us cleansed. He

611
00:50:36.159 --> 00:50:38.519
<v Speaker 2>knew he could, he knew he could, he wasn't sure

612
00:50:38.519 --> 00:50:41.440
<v Speaker 2>if he wanted to, and Jesus put forth his hand

613
00:50:41.559 --> 00:50:46.119
<v Speaker 2>verse thirteen and touched him, saying I will or I

614
00:50:46.320 --> 00:50:54.000
<v Speaker 2>want to be clean, and immediately the leprosy departed from him.

615
00:50:54.000 --> 00:50:58.880
<v Speaker 2>To notice, the man asked if you will, Jesus said,

616
00:50:58.920 --> 00:51:03.079
<v Speaker 2>I will, if you want, I want to. When did

617
00:51:03.159 --> 00:51:08.519
<v Speaker 2>Jesus ever say I won't. Can anybody give me a

618
00:51:09.320 --> 00:51:13.280
<v Speaker 2>chapter and verse where Jesus said I won't, or somebody

619
00:51:13.320 --> 00:51:15.440
<v Speaker 2>come and came to him and said, if you will

620
00:51:15.639 --> 00:51:22.719
<v Speaker 2>you and Jesus said no, I won't, because God's trying

621
00:51:22.760 --> 00:51:25.039
<v Speaker 2>to teach you something, or this is for your good,

622
00:51:25.960 --> 00:51:28.440
<v Speaker 2>or this is working character into you. This is perfect

623
00:51:28.599 --> 00:51:32.440
<v Speaker 2>all that religious traditions, which is right from the devil.

624
00:51:34.239 --> 00:51:43.840
<v Speaker 2>Jesus never said I won't. He said I will. Now

625
00:51:44.039 --> 00:51:48.599
<v Speaker 2>these people, it says he say he won't. For something

626
00:51:48.639 --> 00:51:54.480
<v Speaker 2>to be scriptural, there must be scriptures to back it up.

627
00:51:56.199 --> 00:51:58.639
<v Speaker 2>They don't have scriptures to back it up, so it's

628
00:51:58.679 --> 00:52:04.920
<v Speaker 2>not scriptural. It's the traditions of man which make of

629
00:52:05.000 --> 00:52:09.960
<v Speaker 2>non effect the word of God. He never said I won't,

630
00:52:11.000 --> 00:52:15.559
<v Speaker 2>he said I will. Look at verse fifteen, But so

631
00:52:15.719 --> 00:52:18.280
<v Speaker 2>much the more went their fame abroad of him. Now

632
00:52:18.360 --> 00:52:25.599
<v Speaker 2>notice this, and great multitudes remember I established earlier that

633
00:52:25.800 --> 00:52:28.760
<v Speaker 2>in one place at least a multitude was ten to

634
00:52:28.760 --> 00:52:34.800
<v Speaker 2>fifteen thousand a multitude. This is a great multitude, now, notice,

635
00:52:35.199 --> 00:52:40.960
<v Speaker 2>and great multitudes came together to hear and to be healed,

636
00:52:42.440 --> 00:52:47.159
<v Speaker 2>to hear and to be healed here, and be healed

637
00:52:47.960 --> 00:52:56.920
<v Speaker 2>here and be healed. Salvation as well, I'll say it

638
00:52:56.960 --> 00:53:02.719
<v Speaker 2>this way. Healing, just like sad. Salvation starts with hearing.

639
00:53:04.000 --> 00:53:10.840
<v Speaker 2>Faith comes by hearing. Romans ten fourteen says, how shall

640
00:53:10.880 --> 00:53:18.119
<v Speaker 2>they believe unless they hear? How shall they hear without

641
00:53:18.119 --> 00:53:23.280
<v Speaker 2>a preacher? How shall they preach unless they are sent?

642
00:53:24.519 --> 00:53:31.000
<v Speaker 2>Faith comes by hearing the word of God? How are

643
00:53:31.000 --> 00:53:36.440
<v Speaker 2>they going to believe unless they hear? They came to

644
00:53:36.719 --> 00:53:54.679
<v Speaker 2>hear and to be healed. Hallelujah. Oh okay, amount of time.

645
00:53:56.079 --> 00:53:58.440
<v Speaker 2>Let's just we're here, let's just we'll read this and

646
00:53:58.519 --> 00:54:03.639
<v Speaker 2>we'll take it up here next time. Verse sixteen. And

647
00:54:03.760 --> 00:54:07.719
<v Speaker 2>Jesus would drew himself into the wilderness and prayed. And

648
00:54:07.760 --> 00:54:10.079
<v Speaker 2>it came to pass on a certain day, as he

649
00:54:10.239 --> 00:54:14.840
<v Speaker 2>was teaching, as he was, what teaching as he was,

650
00:54:14.920 --> 00:54:16.639
<v Speaker 2>what teaching?

651
00:54:17.079 --> 00:54:17.320
<v Speaker 1>Well?

652
00:54:17.360 --> 00:54:22.920
<v Speaker 2>Was he teaching the word on a certain day as

653
00:54:22.960 --> 00:54:28.840
<v Speaker 2>he was teaching? Mayboy once a just skip the teaching,

654
00:54:29.000 --> 00:54:32.559
<v Speaker 2>get to the healings and the miracles and the deliverance

655
00:54:32.599 --> 00:54:35.039
<v Speaker 2>and the freedom and the prosperity. They don't want to

656
00:54:35.079 --> 00:54:39.000
<v Speaker 2>have the word, the teaching that builds the faith, that

657
00:54:39.119 --> 00:54:42.719
<v Speaker 2>causes faith to lay hold of the promises of God.

658
00:54:43.840 --> 00:54:47.880
<v Speaker 2>On a certain day, as he was teaching the where

659
00:54:48.239 --> 00:54:51.159
<v Speaker 2>pharisees and doctors of the Law sitting by, which would

660
00:54:51.199 --> 00:54:54.880
<v Speaker 2>come out of every town of Galilee and Judea and Jerusalem.

661
00:54:55.159 --> 00:54:59.960
<v Speaker 2>And notice, as he was teaching the power of the Law,

662
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:06.760
<v Speaker 2>Lord was present to heal them. As he was teaching

663
00:55:08.400 --> 00:55:13.079
<v Speaker 2>the power, the Lord was present to heal them, and

664
00:55:13.159 --> 00:55:20.960
<v Speaker 2>none of them got healed. There's no indication that any

665
00:55:21.039 --> 00:55:27.920
<v Speaker 2>of them got healed, only the one man that they

666
00:55:28.440 --> 00:55:30.920
<v Speaker 2>tore open the roof and let him down on a cot.

667
00:55:31.840 --> 00:55:36.039
<v Speaker 2>And Jesus said, Gris verse twenty four, take up your

668
00:55:36.039 --> 00:55:42.119
<v Speaker 2>bed and walk. None of all these people were there,

669
00:55:42.159 --> 00:55:44.280
<v Speaker 2>and none of them were getting healed, and yet the

670
00:55:44.480 --> 00:55:49.239
<v Speaker 2>power was present to heal. Why were they not being healed?

671
00:55:51.400 --> 00:55:55.760
<v Speaker 2>The Word tells us verse twenty and when Jesus saw

672
00:55:56.159 --> 00:56:04.400
<v Speaker 2>their faith, so even though he was teaching, apparently they

673
00:56:04.440 --> 00:56:08.880
<v Speaker 2>weren't mixing faith with it they weren't embracing it, they

674
00:56:08.880 --> 00:56:12.519
<v Speaker 2>weren't grabbing hold of it. They weren't allowing faith to come.

675
00:56:12.880 --> 00:56:16.599
<v Speaker 2>They must have been hearing it like the stony ground,

676
00:56:16.639 --> 00:56:21.000
<v Speaker 2>the hard ground, the thorny ground, with unbelief or doubt

677
00:56:21.199 --> 00:56:23.480
<v Speaker 2>or fear, or like I just don't know about this,

678
00:56:23.760 --> 00:56:26.480
<v Speaker 2>and I think that's passed away. That's not for it today.

679
00:56:26.599 --> 00:56:29.199
<v Speaker 2>But that would never work for me. We can hear

680
00:56:29.280 --> 00:56:34.519
<v Speaker 2>it and it's still not do us any good. I mean,

681
00:56:34.559 --> 00:56:37.000
<v Speaker 2>it's sad for me or any preacher to know that

682
00:56:37.119 --> 00:56:40.199
<v Speaker 2>on any given ser many preachers, there's people that go

683
00:56:40.280 --> 00:56:42.119
<v Speaker 2>out there and didn't do them a bit of good

684
00:56:42.599 --> 00:56:45.039
<v Speaker 2>because they didn't. They may have heard it, but they

685
00:56:45.039 --> 00:56:48.239
<v Speaker 2>didn't mix faith with it, or they questioned around. I

686
00:56:48.320 --> 00:56:50.559
<v Speaker 2>just don't know about that. I don't think that would work.

687
00:56:50.679 --> 00:56:53.199
<v Speaker 2>Or they didn't even hear the minders off somewhere else.

688
00:56:56.199 --> 00:57:04.159
<v Speaker 2>But these people Jesus saw their faith, now says he

689
00:57:04.280 --> 00:57:07.199
<v Speaker 2>saw their faith. Where do they get the faith? I

690
00:57:07.320 --> 00:57:13.360
<v Speaker 2>believe this is what I believe. You can believe something else.

691
00:57:13.440 --> 00:57:18.480
<v Speaker 2>I can't prove this with the scripture, but you can't

692
00:57:18.480 --> 00:57:22.679
<v Speaker 2>disprove it with the scripture. So when we get to heaven.

693
00:57:22.679 --> 00:57:27.000
<v Speaker 2>You'll find out I'm right and you're wrong. But I

694
00:57:27.039 --> 00:57:30.559
<v Speaker 2>can't prove this, but I think I have good evidence

695
00:57:30.639 --> 00:57:37.519
<v Speaker 2>for it. I believe it says these four men they went.

696
00:57:40.719 --> 00:57:43.559
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying for I've always heard four, but doesn't say for.

697
00:57:43.840 --> 00:57:46.159
<v Speaker 2>I wonder if one of the other passages it does,

698
00:57:46.199 --> 00:57:50.519
<v Speaker 2>but i've always heard four. Anyway, we'll say his friends,

699
00:57:50.559 --> 00:57:53.880
<v Speaker 2>these men they went. It says they open up the

700
00:57:53.960 --> 00:57:57.280
<v Speaker 2>roof and they let him down. And Jesus saw their faith.

701
00:57:58.039 --> 00:58:02.559
<v Speaker 2>Whose faith? The men faith that let him down? And

702
00:58:02.639 --> 00:58:05.760
<v Speaker 2>the man's faith on the bed, Because that takes some faith.

703
00:58:06.800 --> 00:58:09.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean, if you're a paralytic, do you even take

704
00:58:09.480 --> 00:58:11.320
<v Speaker 2>some faith if we said, hey, we're gonna haul you

705
00:58:11.440 --> 00:58:14.239
<v Speaker 2>up on the roof, here tear open the roof and

706
00:58:14.360 --> 00:58:16.960
<v Speaker 2>let you down on some ropes. But that takes some

707
00:58:17.039 --> 00:58:19.480
<v Speaker 2>faith on your part. I mean, they might roll you

708
00:58:19.519 --> 00:58:23.519
<v Speaker 2>off the roof, then you're really in bad shape. That

709
00:58:23.760 --> 00:58:30.159
<v Speaker 2>takes some faith. Might fall through the roof. Oh he's dead.

710
00:58:30.199 --> 00:58:39.480
<v Speaker 2>Now he was paralyzed, but now he's dead. Oh, Jesus

711
00:58:39.800 --> 00:58:47.280
<v Speaker 2>said fear and the hat only believe. But I'll conclude this,

712
00:58:47.400 --> 00:58:49.880
<v Speaker 2>he saw their faith. Now here's what I'm saying I

713
00:58:49.880 --> 00:58:52.000
<v Speaker 2>can't definitely prove it, but I think I have strong

714
00:58:52.039 --> 00:58:55.679
<v Speaker 2>evidence for it. Here's what I think happened. The men

715
00:58:55.920 --> 00:58:59.119
<v Speaker 2>will say, the four men they were in that meeting,

716
00:59:00.480 --> 00:59:09.679
<v Speaker 2>they heard Jesus. They said, let's go get Simeon. Let's

717
00:59:09.679 --> 00:59:15.599
<v Speaker 2>go kidd him. Did you hear what I heard? Yeah?

718
00:59:15.639 --> 00:59:19.559
<v Speaker 2>I heard it too. The power that the spirit of

719
00:59:19.599 --> 00:59:24.199
<v Speaker 2>the Lord is upon him. He's anointed to preach deliverance

720
00:59:24.199 --> 00:59:27.119
<v Speaker 2>of the captors. He's preaching the year. Do you believe

721
00:59:27.159 --> 00:59:32.119
<v Speaker 2>in your freedom? Let's go get Simeon. He's down there paralyzed.

722
00:59:32.519 --> 00:59:35.840
<v Speaker 2>We need to get him in this meeting. And they

723
00:59:35.880 --> 00:59:38.039
<v Speaker 2>go and they get him, and they come back and

724
00:59:38.079 --> 00:59:41.519
<v Speaker 2>their seats taken. They pressed to hear the word of God.

725
00:59:41.960 --> 00:59:45.719
<v Speaker 2>Oh what are we gonna do? And one of the

726
00:59:45.760 --> 00:59:48.480
<v Speaker 2>must have an idea. I don't care. Let's go up

727
00:59:48.480 --> 00:59:54.079
<v Speaker 2>on the roof, tear the roof open. I've heard two

728
00:59:56.000 --> 01:00:01.239
<v Speaker 2>interpretative with some people say this is Peter's home, others

729
01:00:01.239 --> 01:00:06.039
<v Speaker 2>say it was jesus home. In one place that does

730
01:00:06.079 --> 01:00:11.400
<v Speaker 2>say they went to his house. Speaking of jesus house, See,

731
01:00:11.440 --> 01:00:14.239
<v Speaker 2>Jesus wasn't so poor, he didn't have anything. That's a

732
01:00:14.320 --> 01:00:19.840
<v Speaker 2>tradition of men. He had a treasure they gave to

733
01:00:19.880 --> 01:00:24.039
<v Speaker 2>the poor. He took care of a whole entourage of

734
01:00:24.159 --> 01:00:26.880
<v Speaker 2>people that traveled with him, and women helped out. We

735
01:00:27.000 --> 01:00:34.960
<v Speaker 2>know that, but I can imagine the talk. But he

736
01:00:35.079 --> 01:00:37.719
<v Speaker 2>saw their faith. I think these men were in the meeting.

737
01:00:38.000 --> 01:00:40.840
<v Speaker 2>They had faith, would say, whoa, let's go get Simeon.

738
01:00:41.079 --> 01:00:44.360
<v Speaker 2>They'd lower Simeon down. And Jesus can sense the faith

739
01:00:44.480 --> 01:00:47.559
<v Speaker 2>coming out of him. He says, I say, do you rise,

740
01:00:47.639 --> 01:00:51.360
<v Speaker 2>take up your bed and walk. And he rose, took

741
01:00:51.440 --> 01:00:55.760
<v Speaker 2>up his bed and walked. Jesus would have said, according

742
01:00:55.800 --> 01:01:05.000
<v Speaker 2>to your faith, be it unto you, unto you, Collelijah, Father,

743
01:01:05.079 --> 01:01:11.400
<v Speaker 2>we thank you. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by

744
01:01:11.440 --> 01:01:15.079
<v Speaker 2>the word of God. And the more we feed on

745
01:01:15.159 --> 01:01:19.880
<v Speaker 2>the word, the more faith comes, the more faith comes,

746
01:01:20.159 --> 01:01:24.519
<v Speaker 2>the more confidence we have. And what you've said, and

747
01:01:24.559 --> 01:01:30.199
<v Speaker 2>what you've promised, and what you've told us, Lord, we

748
01:01:30.280 --> 01:01:33.119
<v Speaker 2>thank you that we can be here and be healed.

749
01:01:34.599 --> 01:01:43.559
<v Speaker 2>Lord teach us to take heed not only what we hear,

750
01:01:45.199 --> 01:01:50.519
<v Speaker 2>but how we hear, and that when we hear the

751
01:01:50.559 --> 01:01:54.079
<v Speaker 2>word of God, we would not allow ourselves to be

752
01:01:54.760 --> 01:02:00.840
<v Speaker 2>distracted or have wandering minds. Or wandering thoughts. But rather

753
01:02:00.880 --> 01:02:04.039
<v Speaker 2>we would hear it and accept it, delight in it,

754
01:02:04.320 --> 01:02:08.920
<v Speaker 2>and embrace it with obedience. We would acknowledge it as

755
01:02:09.000 --> 01:02:13.960
<v Speaker 2>our own. We would understand it in an honest and

756
01:02:14.039 --> 01:02:18.440
<v Speaker 2>good heart, possess it and exercise patience and bring forth

757
01:02:18.480 --> 01:02:23.280
<v Speaker 2>fruit thirty sixty and one hundredfold in our own lives,

758
01:02:24.039 --> 01:02:27.719
<v Speaker 2>and then go out and minister healing and life and

759
01:02:27.760 --> 01:02:32.840
<v Speaker 2>salvation to others. Hallelujah. In fact, let's make that our

760
01:02:32.880 --> 01:02:40.559
<v Speaker 2>prayer in that confession. Our confession is we endeavor to

761
01:02:40.599 --> 01:02:42.639
<v Speaker 2>bring this to a close. Say this when we close

762
01:02:42.639 --> 01:02:45.719
<v Speaker 2>your eyes and just say and pray this with me. Lord,

763
01:02:47.840 --> 01:03:03.599
<v Speaker 2>teach me what to hear and how to hear. Thank

764
01:03:03.639 --> 01:03:07.760
<v Speaker 2>you for listening. We hope that you enjoyed today's episode.
