• 1:20
  Speaker 1: kind of suffering, betrayal, humiliation, torture, torture, and death, he
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: didn't focus only on the pain of the moment. Instead,
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: he looked beyond that when suffering would produce. He looked
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: beyond the temporal pain and the suffering and what that
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: would produce, and it will produce redemption, resurrection. Right, we're
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: heading into a holy week and the salvation of many.

  Speaker 1: of your life because you knew you were going to
• 4:41

• 5:46
  Speaker 1: and all those saints who believe in these prayers. We
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: say Amen to the Amen. So let's go for it.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Let's go for it. Let me switch it over and
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: then when I'm not in my studio, I'm so like
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: flustered that we're hear Amen, give me minutes to share
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: since Joanne, I see you. Good morning, my sister and
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: my friend. God bless you. Welcome back to the morning Devo.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: I'm in on my location so I have a mobile
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: set up here, so don't mind me if I'm a
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: little flustered. Amen, just trying to make all things go.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: This is all mobile, Amen, So let's go for it.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: Shut it's out one minute. When we come back, we'll
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: get right into it. I'll be right back. Amen. Amen,
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: we're back. Wow, that's a close up. Hey man, let
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: me switch this scene over a little bit. Hope I
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: don't mess everything up. Help me? Lord even there and
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: go back a little bit. That's too much, hey man.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: You need to see me in three D like that,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: you men? So yeah, So Hebrews, chapter number twelve, Verse
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: number two. Let's see what the Word of God says. Now,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: this is tough because I don't have I can't connect
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: my second screen for whatever reason. It's not cooperating. So
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: you get to see some background things if you're watching,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: but listening, no worries, no problems. This is the advantage
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: audio people, audio only people have that you don't have
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: to see my blenders on the screen. Amen. You might
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: be running, you might be going to work, getting ready
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: for school, getting ready for work, you might be working out.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: You have your air pods on. Amen, thank you so
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: much for listening. I see the numbers. They're encouraging. I
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: see my downloads increasing, Thank you, thank you so much
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: for your support. Wow, in the United States and Illinois
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: and Virginia, Pennsylvania, so much increase in the downloads. That
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: means there's so much hunger for the Word of God,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: because it's not about me. It's about what I have
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: to and when I'm directed to the Word of God. Amen,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: So we can see it for ourselves. So that's encouraging
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: them to know that people still are hungry and thirsty
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: for the Word of God. They want to see the
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: power of God. I know. I want to see the
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: power of God demonstrated through my life and in my
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: life and through others, through my brothers and sisters. I
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: want to see it. Amen. This generation wants to see
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: the power of God. They don't really want to hear
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: the gospel as much as we might think. They want
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: to hear the Gospel. They hear it, but they don't
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: want to experience. See that. They want to experience and
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: they want to see the demonstration of God's power. So
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: the way I do that quick fix to that is
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: we go to the Word of God, which is alive
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: and has a power and authority. Amen. So bear with me.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Let me see if I could get this going. Amen.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: I have to put this on the screen, but it's
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: now the way to do it is a little bit different. Here.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Let me get all this other stuff out of the way.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, you don't see it. Hopefully you don't
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: see it, amen, without here trying to get it through. Amen.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: Let me see what we have here left. Okay, I'll
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: leave that on and I take this off put this on. Okay,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: so you don't see hopefully what I'm doing yet, amen,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: until I will switch the screen over. So if you
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: whip me. You know, if you've been following me, you
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: know that these things are tough for me when things
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: are not working properly. Amen. So I'm really really trying
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: to give you some excellence here. Amen. I'm just gonna
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: take some time. Let's see if I can get this.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: There you go and switch the screen and it should
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: be up. Now, there you go, all right, eternal perspective
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: today on the morning devo. Ain'men. All right, let's see
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: hopefully my volume is still good. Let me see if
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: the volume is still good. Yeah, okay, there you go.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: So Hebrews chapter twelve, verse number two. Hebrews Chapter twelve,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: verse number two. This is the amplified version. That's why
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: your version might not have all the wording that we're
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: going to be reading through. So it says looking away
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: from all that will distract us and focusing our eyes
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: on Jesus, very powerful, and we need to do this.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: I need to do this. I get distracted easily, but
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: in the name of Jesus, I won't get distracted away
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: from focusing my eyes and my gaze on the Lord Jesus,
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: and hopefully that'll be the case for you as well.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: Who is the author and perfector of faith, the first
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: incentive for our belief, and the one who brings our
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: faith to maturity, Who, for the joy of accomplishing the
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: goal set before him, endured the cross, disregarding the shame,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: and sat down at the right hand of the throne
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: of God, revealing what his deity, his authority, and the
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: completion of his work. He could also cross references with
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: Psalms Chapter one hundred and ten, verse number one. That's amazing.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: That's amazing man, that God would do this, man, that
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: he would help us. This world distracts. I don't know
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: about you, but this world distracts. But he wants us
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: to stay focused. Gaze on Jesus, focus on the Lord.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: Why Because he's worth focusing on. He is true, he's righteous,
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: he's loving, he's kind, he's merciful, he's the Savior, he's
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: the King of the Christian right. He's the Lord of Lords,
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: and he's the God of the Christians. Stay focused on
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: him and see what happens all through life. Amen. We
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: should have an eternal perspective. We know what's going on
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: down here in this temporary part, right, but we keep
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: an eternal perspective, or at least we should be keeping
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: an eternal perspective. Amen. So let's keep this eternal perspective
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: going and moving in our heart, in our lives. And
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: let me get to my notes, checking the time and
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: making sure we're not all going over. So what does
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: this mean that God wants us to keep our eyes
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: focused on him? What does it mean? Well, my notes,
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: I wrote this when Jesus faced the worst kind of suffering,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: because I don't know about you, but I don't know
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: anybody who has been put on a cross, even though
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: the people in history and history others have been crucified.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: But when I think about the Lord, pure, holy, righteous, loving,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: just without spot or bladness, sinless blamelet like perfect man.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: When I think about him being put on a cross,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: humbling himself, and he laid down his life for us.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: He didn't get his life taken from him when I
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: think about it, I'm like, man, that's the worst kind
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: of suffering. It was betrayed, humiliated, tortured, eventually died on
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: the cross. He didn't focus only on the pain of
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: the moment. This is important because we go through pain, right,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: but not anything compared to what Jesus went through. Instead,
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: the Lord look beyond that to what the suffering will produce.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: What did Jesus is suffering produce for us? Hey, man,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: Sister Joyce, I see you. Good morning, God bless you.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Morning Devo, my system, my friend,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: A little different setup over here. I'm mobile, amen, so
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: I'm doing my best. And I didn't even get my
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: right glasses with me. I didn't take my glasses with me,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: so I'm getting all this glare because this is not
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: the glare free glasses. But thank you so much for
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: coming through, Amen. It's good to see my system and
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: my friend. Thank you for the blessings and your love
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: and your support all the time. Really, I am truly
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: grateful for the support that Sis Johannes's is the Joyce
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: and the others give on these morning devils. It really matters,
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: and it helps us move this past us and for
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: others to see. Amen, and God gets the glory for
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: it all. That's the kicker, right, that's the eternal perspective
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: that we have. So what did the Lord's suffering produce?
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: Why it was so important for us to see the
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: demonstration of God's love in what he did? What did
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: it produce in your life? What it produce in my life? Well,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: let's go down the list, because it produced a whole lot.
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: How about redemption Genesis chapter three to fall of Man
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: created the need for a redeemer, and that redeemer lives,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: and that redeemer is the Lord Jesus Christ. Puring blank period.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: That redeemer is the Lord Jesus Resurrection. We're heading into
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Holy Week and we're going to be selling the most
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: selling We're going to be celebrating the most important event
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: that happened in all of human history, and especially for
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: a Christian, a christ believer like us, heymn the resurrected
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Lord is a key moment, the key sacrifice, the key
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: event that happened for a Christian, the resurrected Lord, the
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. So he knew in
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: an an eternal perspective of what he did was going
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: to produce redemption, resurrection, and the salvation of men. The
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: Lord knew that what he did was going to be
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: used a man to offer eternal life. See the eternal
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: perspective eternal life that he offers. Sister Joeman has a
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: comment here. It says, my husband had two surgeries a
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: couple of years back, and his hips both hip replacement.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: And I asked him, I asked him used to pray
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: for him. I asked you guys to pray for him.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: He's been having a lot of pain and hardly can walk. Wow,
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: that's that's strange, But we're praying for him. I don't
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: know why he would have pain, because they're really getting
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: better at those surgeries hip replacement. My uncle had both
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: his hips replaced, and I think he'll be seventy soon.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: I hope I'm not making him older than what he is.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: But I know he's up there in the age and
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: he's doing fine. So Father, I pray the pain that
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: will be just annihilated, that you relieve Joanne's husband, comfort him,
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: encourage him, motivate him, to really press into who you
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: are in him and who he is in you. And
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: I pray your hand of healing, God in your hand
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: to heal his life and heal the pain, and touch
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: his heart and touch his mind physically, emotionally, spiritually as
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: well in Jesus Holy name. Amen, give me updated, Sister Joanne.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: God could relieve our pain. That's the eternal perspective that
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: we have. Amen. He can do it in an instant,
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: but eventually he's going to do it. Amen. Eventually he's
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: going to do it. That's his promise over his children.
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: So resurrection, salvation of many. That's why Jesus endured, because
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: of the joy that was set before him. You see
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: how that makes sense Now when you have an eternal perspective.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: A lot of people say, why would Jesus do that?
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: That's you know, why would he do that for sinners?
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: And why would he die for And I'm saying that
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: because this is what I used to ask and sometimes
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: I asked it. But now I have an eternal perspective.
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: Now I could see we know the end. Amen. But
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: think about it. If you're just hearing this message about
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: a man coming from heaven, God in the phone of
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: a man coming from heaven and then dying for all humanity,
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: you in a temporal way of thinking you'd be like
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: that doesn't make any sense. But when you see the
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: eternal perspective, when you have an eternal perspective, when you
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: know that this life is not our own, when you
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: know that we're only here temporarily, you know where we
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: have a place that we're going to Amen. So how
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: do we apply this today? A man, I'll leave you
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: with this pain, sister Joanne, for your husband, and for
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: anyone who's going through pain, whether it's physically, emotionally, spiritually.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Pain is not permanent. Man, that's a word pain. According
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: to God in our lives, it's not permanent. It's not permanent.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: Jesus endured temporary pain for eternal glory. That's the eternal perspective.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: I want you to think about temporal pain for eternal glory.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: So in the same way, when we face bad news,
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: now we have an eternal perspective on that bad news.
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: Whether you lost your job, whether it's a bad diagnosis,
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: whether you've been betrayed, whether you're grieving a loss, those
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: things don't have the final say. Praise God doesn't have
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: the final say. According to the eternal perspective and the
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: life giver, the eternal lifegiver according to the Lord, those
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: things are temporary and they don't have the final say
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Tewod Corinthians four seventeen says, for our light and momentary
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: see that temporal troubles are achieving for us an eternal
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: glory that far outweighs them. Those things, those temporary things.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: So why might God be doing this or allowing this,
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: or why are you going through this? Why did God
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: allow us to go through the pain. That's a good question.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: It could be it's God drawing us closer to him,
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: because the Bible does say God is closer closest to
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: the broken hearted, right and my time's a pain, lost grief.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: I felt the presence of God closer than ever before.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: This is after I'm safe. Of course, when I didn't
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: know God, when I went through pain, I went through
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: other things to relieve the pain, the temporary pain, because
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: I never had this eternal perspective, plain and simple. I
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: didn't have an eternal perspective before God changed my heart
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: and changed my life. So could it be drawing you
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: closer to Him through those times of trouble and pain?
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: It's God putting through the fire to refine you, amen
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: to make you better. When you come out of it.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: Is He redirecting you and your attention like Hebrews twelve says,
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: to focus on him. Think about it. That's eternal perspectives,
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: not temporarily respensive perspective. Why am I going through this? Is?
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: This is not good, This is not right, and this
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: is not fair. You know you ever heard yourself saying
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: that I have? But I think now there is a
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: reason for it. Right? Could this be preparing us for
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: something greater? You already know my answer to that. Of course, yes,
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: God is preparing us for something greater. But in the meantime,
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: these light and momentary troubles, according to what Apostle Paul
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: said and Tewod Corinthians four seventeen, are achieving something. We're
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: going somewhere. God is with us us through the pain
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: and struggle. Haven't you realized that yet, that when you're
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: going through the worst of the worst in life, God
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: is with you. When you're going through loss, when you
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: lose a loved when God is with you through it all,
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: when you're losing a job, when you lost the job, divorce,
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: relational issues, financial issues, health issues, God is with us.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: Eternal perspective, we start thinking like wow, it ain't over
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: until the lawyer says it's over. And even when the
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: Lord says it's over, we're going to be with him. Amen.
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: So we win on all sides of the coin, both
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: sides of the coin, and we win in any circumstance.
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: When we're in Christ, our confidence doesn't belong in the
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: temporary things of this world. Our confidence is in Christ,
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: the eternal life giver. So even when we can't see
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: it right now, because we're looking through a dim blast,
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: we can only see as far as our eyes could see.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: But in the spirit we can see eternity. Amen. God
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: has written eternity on our hearts. So even when we
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: can't see it now, we can still trust that nothing
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: is wasted in the hands of God, yd that Hebrew
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: work keeps on coming up. Thank you the Lord Jesus Yad,
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: the hand of God, the power, authority of God. He
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: overcame this world and this world system. He overcame sin
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: and death. He conquered sin and death a man, and
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: he's the resurrected life giving God that we serve and
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: that we know to be the Lord. Amen. So I'll
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: leave it there for now. We'll continue this low willing
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: Manyana I'm part two of this because there's more here,
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: and I don't wanna not go into it, man, because
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: it's good stuff. So eternal perspective, Hebrews chapter twelve, verse
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: number two. Read it for yourself. As a matter of fact,
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: read Hebrews chapter twelve, the whole chapter. Amen. So you
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: could get this in your heart and in your life.
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: The more of the word that you could get in you,
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: the more of the word that will come out of
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: you when you speak it. Speak it over your life,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: speak it over others, pray it, say it, believe it,
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: have confidence in the Christian God, which is the Lord Jesus. Amen,
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: and you will realize one thing and one thing only,
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: that this is not it we're passing through. Let's love
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: one another. Let's love others, forgive others. Amen, show kindness,
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: be kind, be your witness to the Lord Jesus, for
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: the Lord Jesus, for the Kingdom of God, and move accordingly. Amen,
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: And know that the eternal perspective is that we're seated
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: in heavenly places already, but in the meantime we're farmers
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: and fishermen in this temporal space that we're in today.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: I hope this helps you out, ladies and gentlemen. God
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: bless you. Thank you so much for man for coming through, Amen,
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: and for being patient with me as I'm mobile. Amen.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: I got my mobile rig set up. If you would
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: see this setup, you were like. My wife was like,
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: what are you doing? And I was sending everything up
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: and she was like, wow, you dedicated. Amen. That's because
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: God is so good man. I cannot stop doing what
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: God called me to do just because I'm somewhere else.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: So God bless you all. Got to keep you all
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: and remember always that God is good. Peace.
