00:00Hi, Kingdom Health, embracing God's power for wholeness.
00:17In today's study, we'll explore Kingdom Health through the lens of God's word.
00:22Our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, 1 Corinthians 6, 19 to 20, and honoring him
00:28through physical and emotional well-being aligns us with his divine plan.
00:33From understanding healing to overcoming obstacles like unbelief and unforgiveness, this teaching,
00:40this study offers practical biblical wisdom for living in divine health.
00:45Join us in uncovering God's promises and embrace his healing power.
00:52Kingdom Health, embracing God's power for wholeness.
00:56Want to know more?
00:58Hang around.
01:01Welcome, welcome to Lions Roar 3.8 Ministries.
01:06Amos 3.8 tells us, the lion has roared who will not hear or fear.
01:11The Lord God has spoken who can but prophesy.
01:15My name is George Magalhaesian.
01:17We are an apostolic ministry with a prophetic teaching edge.
01:21It is our mission, our passion to reignite, equip, and release Christ-like disciples both
01:28locally and globally.
01:30We do that through our itinerant ministry, but as well as providing you with resources
01:33just like this one to help you, to aid you in your God-given calling.
01:38Today, we've got a great topic.
01:40We're going to be speaking about Kingdom Health, bringing us to our main verse today.
01:47Our main verse today comes from the book of 1 Corinthians 6, verses 19 to 20.
01:561 Corinthians 6, verses 19 to 20, and we'll be reading from the Amplified Classic Version.
02:04Do you not know that your body is the temple, the very sanctuary of the Holy Spirit who
02:10lives within you, whom you have received as a gift from God?
02:16You are not your own.
02:17You were brought with a price, purchased with a preciousness, and paid for, made his own.
02:26So then honor God and bring glory to him in your body.
02:31Amen.
02:32Amen.
02:33All right.
02:35We've got prophets that are bringing with us today again, which is great.
02:39Before she gets on to the word today, I just want to give you a little introduction of
02:43what we are going to be talking about today.
02:46What we're going to be studying today.
02:48For some of you that are arriving a little late, this is your time to listen.
02:54So in today's study, we're going to be doing or touching on or uncovering, studying Kingdom
03:04Health.
03:06We are going to embark on a journey to discover how God's word reveals his desire for our
03:12physical and emotional well-being, complete wholeness.
03:18Our key verse, as we just heard, is 1 Corinthians 6, 19 to 20.
03:231 Corinthians 6, 19 to 20 reminds us that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit.
03:29When we care for our health, we honor God and align ourselves with his purpose for our
03:35lives.
03:36Psalm 103 verses 2 to 3 tells us that the Lord not only forgives our sins, but also
03:44heals our diseases.
03:46So as we explore Kingdom Health, we will uncover some of the whys of not always experiencing
03:52this blessing fully and how to embrace the healing he has promised.
03:59All right, let's pray and get onto it.
04:04Go for it.
04:05All right.
04:06Father, in the name of Jesus, we just want to thank you for this time we're about to
04:11spend together, Lord God.
04:13We thank you for the word that we're going to be learning together, Lord God.
04:18We pray that it's a word that brings forth fruits, Lord God, a word that gives glory
04:22to you, Lord God, and that it will fall on good souls, bearing the fruit, Lord, in Jesus'
04:27name.
04:28Amen.
04:29All right.
04:30All right.
04:31All right.
04:32So like George was speaking before, today, we're going to embark on a journey to discover
04:38the concept, image, or belief of Kingdom Health through the lens of God's word.
04:45Now our main verse reminds us that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit.
04:50By honoring our body with our physical well-being and in...
04:55Honor God.
04:56Oh, by honoring God.
04:58Sorry.
04:59By honoring God with our physical well-being and inner well-being, we align ourselves with
05:07his desires for us.
05:10So basically, you know, God want us to be healthy, not just physically.
05:17We will check that out as it goes on.
05:20Not just physically, but also spiritually and emotionally.
05:25A healthy body reflects his intention for our lives, showcasing his goodness and grace.
05:34When we embrace health, we truly celebrate the blessing he has bestowed upon us.
05:39Now Kingdom Health is definitely and totally rooted in God's desire and promises regarding
05:47our well-being, like I said, both physically and emotionally.
05:51As we explore his words, we can uncover insights into why we may not fully experience this blessing.
06:00Right?
06:01All right.
06:02So as I said at the beginning, we're talking about Kingdom Health, and I'm just going to
06:06break it down a little bit further so you understand what we are going to be studying today.
06:11So in the next section, which is called Our Study, we will be covering, unraveling, revealing
06:18more specifically the following relevant topics.
06:23First one is what is healing?
06:26What is healing?
06:28And in this main topic, we will briefly contrast the difference between healing and miracle
06:36as subtopics, healing and miracle.
06:40The second one is the right posture for healing.
06:44The right posture for healing.
06:46Number three is why sickness?
06:49And in this main topic, why sickness?
06:52We will reveal some of the most common casualties to sickness and therefore hindrances to healing.
07:00And some of these include, A, unbelief, B, false teachings, C, unforgiveness, D, unconfessed
07:09sin, E, lack of knowledge, F, gluttony, and G, eating disorders.
07:16All right.
07:17And number four, which will be our last main topic we cover today is practical points for
07:21healing.
07:23Practical points for healing.
07:24In this main topic, again, we will reveal a few subtopics to consider when seeking healing.
07:31So A will be the initial condition, B, desire for healing, C, instructions and obedience,
07:39D, gradual process, and E, spiritual transformation.
07:43All right, you ready?
07:46Let's get started, right?
07:48Amen.
07:49So number one, what is healing?
07:51Now the American Heritage Dictionary defines healing as the process of restoring health
07:57and alleviating emotional distress.
08:00Now I'll just put it in one sentence, but it was, as they do in dictionary, they separate
08:06it.
08:07Now today, healing is an increasingly important topic in our lives, impacting us both emotionally
08:14and physically.
08:15We can, I mean, every time you look on social media, you meet someone, the first thing you
08:19hear is, hi, how are you, right?
08:22Because it matters so much.
08:25Fortunately, kingdom health, as revealed in the word of God, offers a powerful solution
08:31for both aspects of our wellbeing.
08:34The living word of God is a healing power.
08:37We need to attain this.
08:39Healing in the word of God can be understood in two distinct ways, as a miracle or as a
08:46healing.
08:48Miracle often acts, or wait, miracle often involve acts that go beyond the natural order,
08:56but not every miracle pertains to healing.
09:00We all know that.
09:01Some miracles may involve other divine interventions, while healing typically focuses on restoration
09:09either physically or emotionally.
09:14Let's look at a miracle.
09:18Many of us are familiar with the account of the man who was blind from birth and how Jesus
09:24restored his sight.
09:27This event was a miracle as it transcended the natural order.
09:32Why?
09:33Because, see, he was born blind.
09:36It's not something that he could see before and then he got healed.
09:42It's a miracle.
09:43It transcends the natural.
09:45Let's confirm that, right?
09:46Do you want to read the verse?
09:48John 9, verse 1.
09:50In John 9, verse 1 in the Amplified Classic, we read,
09:53As he passed along, he noticed a man blind from his birth.
09:58Now, if you continue the story in John 9, 10 to 11, John 9, 10 to 11, it tells us,
10:04So they said to him, How were your eyes opened?
10:08He replied, The man called Jesus, made mud and smeared it on my eyes and said to me,
10:14Go to Siloam and wash.
10:17So I went and washed and I obtained my sight.
10:20Whereas, as the healing in the next account, Peter heals a lame man by saying,
10:27In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.
10:31Now, the healing restores the man's physical condition, showcasing a direct act of healing
10:37rather a miracle that alters natural order.
10:41Let's confirm that.
10:42Do you want to read it?
10:43Acts 3, 6 to 8 in the Amplified Classic.
10:45Acts 3, 6 to 8 tells us, But Peter said, Silver and gold, money I do not have.
10:51But what I do have, that I give to you in the use of the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth,
10:58walk.
10:59Then he took hold of the man's right hand with a firm grip and raised him up.
11:04At once his feet and ankle bones became strong and steady, and leaping forth, he stood and
11:10began to walk, and he went into the temple with them, walking and leaping and praising
11:15God.
11:16Amen.
11:17So now, now that we've seen the difference between what is healing and miracle, so we
11:22understand, right?
11:24Because there is this misconception saying, you know, oh, do I need healing?
11:29Do I need a miracle right now?
11:31And how does that look?
11:33It's just a small understanding for everyone.
11:35So we know, when you know, you can tackle something.
11:38When you don't know, it's hard to tackle something, right?
11:42Points number two, the right posture for healing.
11:46Is there such a thing?
11:48Absolutely.
11:49I believe there is a wonderful way to position ourselves for healing and everything else
11:54when it comes to God.
11:56I mean, we need to be, to have reverence, to have an aura of God when we're approaching
12:04his God Almighty.
12:06Approaching God with the right heart and attitude can make a significant difference in our journey
12:12toward wholeness.
12:14Essentially, the way you perceive God influences how you receive from him, right?
12:21So if you view him as someone you must plead with for healing, you might find yourself
12:29in a cycle of begging because that's all you're going to keep doing because that's how you
12:36see him, right?
12:39It's essential to understand that your healing is already accessible.
12:43Now, of course, what I've just said before doesn't just apply for healing.
12:48How you see God is how you're going to receive the blessing he has set for you, and that
12:53encompasses every area of your life.
12:56That's another subject for itself.
12:58So like I said, it's essential to understand that your healing is already accessible and
13:02ready for you.
13:04It is available to everyone who calls on Jesus' name and is for this moment, it is for now.
13:12It is important to keep in mind that one of the names of the Lord is Jehovah Rapha, which
13:17means I am the Lord, the great physician, the healer.
13:21This name reflects the wonderful and redemptive nature of God.
13:25Thank God for it, right?
13:27Additionally, healing is included in the completed work of Jesus Christ on the cross, just like
13:34our salvation.
13:36Let's confirm that, right?
13:371 Peter 2.24.
13:38If you read 1 Peter 2.24 in the Amplified Classic, he personally bore our sins in his
13:45own body on the tree, as on an altar, and offered himself on it, that we might die,
13:54cease to exist to sin, and live to righteousness.
13:58By his wounds, you have been healed.
14:01Amen.
14:02So if we understand that this is healing, this is a miracle, this is available to us,
14:10this is the desire of God for us.
14:14So why is there sickness?
14:16That's our number three.
14:17Can you see my finger saying number three?
14:21Number three.
14:22So why sickness?
14:23According to the word of God, there are various reasons why someone may be sick.
14:28At its core, sin is a fundamental cause of sickness.
14:34However, it is important to acknowledge that some individuals may also experience illness
14:40due to a lack of self-discipline in caring for themselves.
14:45This involves not just physical health, but also emotional and social aspects.
14:51Now we will cover some of the casualties of sickness, and therefore hindrances to healing.
14:58A is unbelief.
15:04A lack of faith can obstruct healing.
15:09Believing in God's ability to heal is essential for receiving it.
15:14So unbelief can be a hindrance.
15:16Let's confirm it with the word of God, right?
15:19Matthew 9.22, Matthew 9.22 again in the Amplified Classic, Jesus turned around and seeing her,
15:25he said, take courage, daughter, your faith has made you well.
15:29And at once the woman was restored to health.
15:32See, what is when it is unbelief?
15:35How do you counteract it?
15:37With faith.
15:39Jesus said, well, take courage, your faith has made you well.
15:44B, false teaching.
15:47Does that matter?
15:48Yes, it does.
15:49Acceptance of incorrect teachings about healing can create barriers.
15:55If someone believes that healing is not for today, or that it's contingent upon certain
16:01conditions, they will struggle to receive it.
16:04Again, it comes to a certain point of the way you see God is the way you're going to
16:08receive.
16:09Right?
16:10Let's confirm that with the word, right?
16:12Colossians 2 verse 8, Colossians 2 verse 8 in the Amplified Classic.
16:16See to it that no one carries you off as spoil or makes you yourselves captive by his so-called
16:24philosophy and intellectualism and vain deceit, idle fancies and plain nonsense.
16:31In human tradition, man's ideas of the material rather than the spiritual world, just crude
16:37notions following the rudimentary and elemental teachings of the universe and disregarding
16:43the teachings of Christ the Messiah.
16:46Right?
16:47Amen.
16:48C, unforgiveness.
16:49Unresolved personal issues such as broken relationships or emotional trauma can hinder
16:58healings.
16:59Yes, it can.
17:01Unforgiveness leads to infirmities, and it can be seen in the case of someone who harbors
17:07deep resentment toward others.
17:10This individual might constantly replay the hurtful events in their mind, leading to chronic
17:14stress and anxiety over time.
17:17This emotional turmoil can manifest physically, like, you know, I mean, if you do research
17:22you will see even people who are not Christian would tell you, doctors, they will tell you
17:27that, oh, you know, they must have been stressed out a lot, so they end up getting cancer.
17:32Basically, it's basically offense that translated into cancer.
17:35There's many times that George and I've prayed for people where it's because of certain things
17:43that they haven't let go, that manifested in certain ways physically in their life.
17:49That's what's causing the issue.
17:50And it's a matter of asking what it is to God.
17:53Can you confirm that, babe?
17:54Matthew 5, 23 to 24, Matthew 5, 23 to 24 in the Applified Classics.
18:00So if when you are offering your gift at the altar, you there, remember that your brother
18:05has any grievance against you, leave your gift at the altar and go.
18:10First make peace with your brother, and then come back and present your gift.
18:14Now that's just one verse, there's other verses that tells you that God won't hear you.
18:18That's another story.
18:19D, unconfessed sin, yes, it is not the best thing to have in your life.
18:28Unconfessed sin can hinder one's relationship with God and affect prayer, as well as become
18:33an open door to sickness, a hindrance to obtaining your healings.
18:38Let's confirm that.
18:39Isaiah 59, verse 2, Isaiah 59, verse 2, Amplified Classic, but your inequities have made a separation
18:47between you and your God, and your sins have hidden His face from you, so that you will
18:54not hear.
18:55He will not hear you.
18:57Number E, lack of knowledge, not understanding God's promises regarding healing can prevent
19:05individuals from claiming it.
19:08It's like not knowing what your right is, and then you're standing in court.
19:11I'm sure you guys have heard about the court of heaven and all that, and you're standing
19:15in court.
19:16You've got nothing to say, hey, you can't give me sickness, you can't accuse me, right?
19:22So a true revelation of healing as part of God's will is crucial to manifesting it in
19:28our lives.
19:29Let's confirm it.
19:31Hosea 4, verse 6, Hosea 4, verse 6 in the Amplified Classic, my people are destroyed
19:37for a lack of knowledge, because you, the priestly nation, have rejected knowledge.
19:43I will also reject you, that you shall be no priest to me, seeing you have forgotten
19:50the law of your God.
19:52I will also forget your children.
19:55That is got a lot into that verse, really a lot.
19:59Number F, gluttony, oh, we all know about those ones, right?
20:03There's a lot of like, mukbang, is that what you call it?
20:06I forgot, where they just sit there with like a big platter of food and eat, anyway, won't
20:12get into it, right, gluttony.
20:15The Bible addresses gluttony by highlighting its negative implication, emphasizing the
20:21importance of moderation and the dangers of excessive eating.
20:25So it's not, wait, we keep going actually, read it.
20:30Philippians 3, verse 19, Philippians 3, verse 19 in the Amplified Classic, they are doomed
20:36and their fate is eternal misery, perdition.
20:39Their God is their stomach, their appetites, their sensuality, and their glory in their
20:44shame, siding with earthly things and being of their party.
20:49And lastly, we have eating disorders.
20:53Now the Bible highlights the importance of taking excellent care of our bodies, reminding
20:58us that we are temples of the Holy Spirit, which is what we have in the main verse today,
21:03right?
21:04While it may not specifically mention eating disorders, its teaching encourages us to honor
21:10and nurture our bodies in a positive and healthy way, as honoring steward of God's temple.
21:16Let's read a verse for that.
21:181 Corinthians 6, 19-20, 1 Corinthians 6, 19-20, do you not know that your body is the temple,
21:24the very sanctuary of the Holy Spirit who lives within you, whom you have received as
21:29a gift from God?
21:31You are not your own.
21:32You were bought with a price, purchased with a preciousness, and paid for by His own.
21:39So then honor God and bring glory to Him in your body.
21:43So even that can be a dishonor when you try to conform to the world and really starving
21:49the temple that God has blessed you with in order to conform to the world.
21:54That in itself will of course cause issues in our body because we all are not, doesn't
22:01have the same constitution.
22:02Anyway, that's, we'll talk about that another time, but let's continue.
22:06Number four, you see number four here, number four, practical points for healing.
22:12See, I know I love to share this in our boost program that we have access to incredible
22:18solutions for all our needs and open book Bible solutions, right?
22:24Now healing is truly a journey that brings us closer to God, fostering faith, obedience,
22:30and personal growth along the way.
22:33And it's all found in this open book solution, the Bible.
22:37The healing of Naaman as described in 2 Kings chapter 5 exemplifies healing as a multifaceted
22:47process involving faith, obedience, and transformation.
22:52The following sub points are just a few of the most common to take into consideration
22:57when seeking healing.
22:59A, the initial condition.
23:02Now we, if you don't know about Naaman, Naaman's a commander of the Syrian army.
23:06He was, I mean, he did very well, well known to his king, suffered from leprosy.
23:13His condition was not only physical, but also a social stigma isolating him from others
23:19because you see in those time, leprosy, if you have leprosy, you can't be around people,
23:25right?
23:26So we can confirm that with a verse from God, right?
23:292 Kings 5 verse 1, 2 Kings 5, 1 Amplified Classic.
23:34Naaman, commander of the army of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master,
23:41accepted and acceptable because by him, the Lord had given victory to Syria.
23:46He was also a mighty man of valor, but he was a leper.
23:50Isn't it amazing in this verse itself, it shows you a lot of things that we Christians
23:55sometimes need to understand when it comes to being whole and being one with God.
24:00Just when you look at, he's done all those things and all those victories.
24:03Yes.
24:04Anyway, I'm going on off topic again.
24:07B, desire for healing.
24:10Hearing about a prophet in Israel who could heal, Naaman sought out Elisha, demonstrating
24:17a willingness to pursue healing.
24:20Here we see the longing and understanding that God is the ultimate source of healing,
24:24while also acknowledging his sovereignty.
24:27Let's confirm that.
24:282 Corinthians, 2 Kings, 2 Kings 5, 3 to 5, 2 Kings 5, 3 to 5 in the Amplified Classic.
24:38She said to her mistress, would that my Lord were with the prophet who is in Samaria, for
24:44he would heal him of his leprosy.
24:47Naaman went in and told his king, thus and thus said the maid from Israel.
24:52And the king of Syria said, go now, and I will send a letter to the king of Israel.
24:57And he departed and took with him 10 talents of silver, 6,000 shekels of gold, and 10 changes
25:03of raiment.
25:05See, instruction and obedience, which is part of the process of it, right?
25:13Elisha instructed Naaman to wash in the Jordan River seven times.
25:18Initially, Naaman resisted, feeling that the rivers of his homeland were superior,
25:25which is said in the word of God, right?
25:27However, after the encouragement of his servants, he obeyed the instruction.
25:33This demonstrates faith accompanied by obedience to God's commands, leading to healing.
25:38Let's confirm that.
25:402 Kings 5, 14, 2 Kings 5, 14 in the Amplified Classic.
25:45He went down and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan, as the man of God had said,
25:50and his flesh was restored like that of a little child, and he was clean.
25:55Hey, he became more useful.
25:59The gradual process, Naaman's healing occurred as he followed through with Elisha's direction.
26:08It wasn't instantaneous.
26:10The act of dipping, you know, seven times symbolized a process of faith and obedience,
26:17culminating in his physical healing.
26:21Here we notice that trust and hope in God's goodness is a key.
26:25Let's confirm that.
26:262 Kings 5, verse 10, 2 Kings 5, verse 10 in the Amplified Classic.
26:31Elisha sent a messenger to him saying, go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and your
26:37flesh shall be restored and you shall be clean.
26:40And we know what happens, right?
26:43E, spiritual transformation.
26:46Upon his healing, Naaman acknowledged the God of Israel, illustrating a transformation
26:52that went beyond physical restoration to a spiritual awakening and commitment.
26:57Let's confirm that with a verse, right?
27:002 Kings 5, 15, 2 Kings 5, 15.
27:03Then Naaman returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and stood before him.
27:09He said, behold, now I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel.
27:14So now accept the gift from your servant.
27:19So?
27:20All right.
27:21So in today's study, as you just heard, as we just went through the word of God, we covered
27:27quite a few key points in relation to kingdom health.
27:30The main points covered today, and I'm talking just about the main points, there were subtopics
27:34as well, is number one, what is healing?
27:37We covered number two, the right posture for healing.
27:41Number three, why sickness?
27:43Number four, practical points for healing.
27:47We encourage you, if you haven't listened to this from the beginning, we encourage you
27:52to please go and re-listen and use these, if need be, in your cell groups, home groups,
27:58church, whatever, to help you to fully understand and cement these biblical truths to our Christian
28:06faith.
28:07Amen?
28:08Amen.
28:09All right.
28:10So finally, in summary of today's study, kingdom health, I would like to emphasize the following
28:14points.
28:15First, embrace the opportunity to seek God's guidance and wisdom through prayer and scripture.
28:21Trust in His sovereignty and goodness, especially during challenging times.
28:26Create a habit of faithful prayers and actively follow God's command.
28:33Open your heart to spiritual healing and restorations through forgiveness and a deeper relationship
28:38with God.
28:39Draw inspiration from biblical examples of healing and miracles to guide your journey.
28:46Then, remember that healing as seen in the Bible is a rich and multifaceted experience.
28:52It encompasses physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects and it flourishes through faith, trust,
28:58and obedience to God's Word, while celebrating His sovereignty and goodness.
29:03I would like to finish with this perfect quote by John G. Lake.
29:09This need to be removed from the minds of God's people, the idea that divine healing
29:15is something disassociated or separated from Christ's salvation.
29:22It is not.
29:23Healing is simply the salvation of Jesus Christ having its divine action in a man's body,
29:30the same as it had its divine action in a man's soul.
29:34How perfect is that?
29:36Amen?
29:37Amen.
29:38All right.
29:39Let me reinstate or re-say or retell or whatever word you want to use this statement, this
29:48quote from John G. Lake.
29:51And not just for the believers, for unbelievers, for anybody out there or not yet believers,
29:57anyone out there that thinks that the God of Jesus Christ, the God of the Christian
30:01faith, is not real.
30:04He's very real.
30:05And as John G. Lake said, this needs to be removed from the mind, especially the mind
30:10of God's people, the idea that divine healing is something disassociated or separate from
30:19Christ's salvation.
30:20It is not.
30:22Healing is simply the salvation of Jesus Christ having its divine action in a man's body.
30:28And that's talking about wholeness, spirit, soul, and body, the same as it had its divine
30:33action in a man's soul.
30:36What has that got to do with me?
30:38Well, the God of the Christian faith is God.
30:42And there is only one way, one truth in my life, and that is through Jesus Christ.
30:46You're not here by accident.
30:48This is a divine appointment, as 1 John 5, 4-5 tells us, for whatever is born of God
30:54overcomes the world.
30:55And this is the victory that has overcome the world, our faith.
30:59Again, I want to ask you, if this is your second time, third time, or if this is your
31:03first time, where are you putting your faith?
31:06Is it in money?
31:07Is it in vanity?
31:09Is it in gurus?
31:10Is it in whatever the so-called experts out there in the world, where are you putting
31:15your faith?
31:17Who is he who overcomes the world?
31:19He will not be here if he did not realize there's something missing in your life.
31:24And you were not created for mediocrity.
31:26You were not created for just this world, enjoy this world, and then just go off into
31:31some soup heaven or whatever you want to call it.
31:35It doesn't work like that.
31:37You know there's a bigger purpose for your life.
31:39So how do you overcome the world?
31:41How do you overcome the things of the world, the struggles, the lack of money, health,
31:47all those things?
31:48Well, the Word of God goes on to say, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.
31:54You put your faith in Jesus Christ and the work, finished work, that he finished on the
32:00cross.
32:01The Word of God goes on to tell us, John 3, 16 to 17, tells us very clearly that for God
32:07so loved the world, so God does love you, even if you don't love him, he still loves
32:13you.
32:14God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him
32:19should not perish, but have everlasting life.
32:22For God did not send his Son, talking about Jesus Christ, into the world to condemn the
32:28world, but that the world through him might be saved.
32:33John 1, John 1, 9 tells us very clearly where to start.
32:37If we confess our sins, he is faithful, and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse
32:43us from all unrighteousness.
32:45It's very, very simple.
32:49That word sin, in its most simple definition, is when we try to live our lives without God.
32:55You were created by a loving, all sovereign, all powerful God that loves you so much that
33:01he created you, the only creation in all of the universe, he created you in his image.
33:09That's how much he loves you, and you are unique.
33:11We all know, even through science and things we've learned through school, that each and
33:15every single one of us has one unique figure print.
33:18Nobody has a copy of anything else.
33:20We're all unique, and that was, and has to be, through a divine, creative miracle, and
33:29that's through Christ Jesus.
33:31That is through the Lord himself.
33:33What do I have to do, George?
33:34Very simple.
33:35Look at the screen and you'll see Romans 10, 9 to 10, tells us that if you confess with
33:40your mouth, just like I'm speaking to you out loud right now, confess with your mouth
33:45the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will
33:49be saved.
33:50For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto
33:55salvation.
33:56You speak out loud, you invite the Lord Jesus to become your Lord and Savior.
34:01You ask him, Lord, I need you.
34:04In your own, you have to mean it.
34:06The matter of the heart's the heart of the matter.
34:09You invite him to come and be your Lord, and then you choose to believe that God raised
34:13him from the dead in your place.
34:16On that cross, the cross that he took upon himself, that he died on, that should have
34:20been us, but he took it in our place.
34:24So you put your faith in what he did, and you will be saved from the moment you do that.
34:29Then Titus 3 verse 5, Ephesians 2 verse 8 and Acts 1 verse 8, amongst many others, goes
34:35on to say, then he saves us by grace, through faith, the faith part being your part, you
34:41choose to put your faith in him, the gift of God washing away our sins and giving us
34:46the new joy of the indwelling Holy Spirit.
34:49And you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be my witnesses
34:53telling people about me everywhere.
34:55That's called the baptism of Holy Spirit and fire.
35:00We're going to be doing that.
35:01We're going to be praying right now together for the baptism of Holy Spirit and fire, because
35:05we all need it as believers.
35:06We need it.
35:07We don't just need salvation.
35:10Salvation itself is super important, absolutely, eternally important, but we're still here
35:14on earth.
35:15Otherwise God will get us saved and get us straight to heaven.
35:18We're here on earth with a major purpose.
35:21We are God's ambassadors.
35:23We are Christ's ambassadors, kings and priests, living epistles, soldiers of the kingdom of
35:27God.
35:28We are the light of the world and salt of the earth, as his word says, and in order
35:31to do those things, in order to fulfill the calling that God has on our lives and efficiently
35:37be those things, we need to put our faith in Holy Spirit, who's going to come and live
35:42inside of us when we invite him through the baptism of Holy Spirit, and we need to live
35:48and walk with him.
35:51We require spiritual gifts in order to do that.
35:54We really do.
35:55So we're going to invite him, and he's going to come bearing those gifts, and he's going
35:58to use them, and he's going to comfort you, and he's going to correct you, and he's going
36:02to love you, and he's going to protect you and all those things.
36:05Amen?
36:06Amen.
36:07Let's do it together.
36:08Lord, I thank you right now for the privilege of praying with our brothers and sisters throughout
36:11the world, those that are listening, those that are watching us right now.
36:14We do this in prayer, in unity, in the mighty name of Jesus.
36:18We are hungry and thirsty, Lord, for righteousness.
36:21As your word says, those that are hungry and thirsty for righteousness shall be filled.
36:25You are our righteousness, but we are hungry for the spiritual things, for the joy of your
36:32indwelling Holy Spirit.
36:34So now we invite your Holy Spirit, baptize us fresh with a fresh fire, revival fire,
36:41Lord.
36:42Ignite a fire in us and through us that the world will watch us burn for you, that the
36:46world will be excited and come to you and see a fire that cannot be quenched, for our
36:53God is a consuming fire.
36:55Right now we say, come Lord, set us on fire in Jesus' mighty name, amen.
37:04And amen.
37:05Glory to God.
37:06Hallelujah.
37:07Hallelujah.
