- 1:10Speaker 2: Complete.
- 1:11Speaker 1: The job that God has done in our lives is complete.
- 1:14Speaker 1: It's not a halfway done job. It's not a so
- 1:17Speaker 1: so done job. It's not like halfway finished. You're not
- 1:21Speaker 1: halfway saved. You're not halfway born again, You're not halfway redeemed, restored.

- 1:31Speaker 1: Your complete renewal is available to you on a day today, basis,
- 1:37Speaker 1: don't let anybody try to talk you out of that
- 1:39Speaker 1: fact and that truth of our faith that Jesus Christ
- 1:43Speaker 1: did a finished work on the cross, and that finished
- 1:45Speaker 1: work is available to us as sons and daughters of
- 1:49Speaker 1: living God, and that He has purposed in us a
- 1:52Speaker 1: plan of just victory. We have victory in God in Christ. Amen,
- 1:59Speaker 1: nothing more than nothing less. We have the authority, the power,
- 2:02Speaker 1: the anoing thing, the position. Everything that God has done
- 2:06Speaker 1: for us is a complete job.
- 2:08Speaker 2: Amen. And this is complete renewal, complete renewal. Since the joyce.
- 2:13Speaker 1: I see you, good morning, God, bless you, I bless
- 2:15Speaker 1: you the group money. Praise the Lord every day, Amen, Amen,
- 2:20Speaker 1: Praise the Lord every day. And I try that Amen,
- 2:23Speaker 1: I know you do that too. And when we come
- 2:25Speaker 1: together we praise Him real good.
- 2:26Speaker 2: Amen.
- 2:27Speaker 1: To that way we know that we are here together, Amen,
- 2:30Speaker 1: of one accord, knowing that God is the author and
- 2:33Speaker 1: perfector of our faith. The Lord Jesus is the author
- 2:37Speaker 1: and perfector of our faith. So that's what we do
- 2:40Speaker 1: here on. So when it is with a zeta org,
- 2:43Speaker 1: so we're gonna be in Second Corinthians, chapter number five,
- 2:46Speaker 1: verse number seventeen, one of my first verses that the
- 2:49Speaker 1: Lord put into my memory bank, that put in my
- 2:51Speaker 1: heart when I first got born again, when I first
- 2:53Speaker 1: got saved. This is the first scripture I quoted to
- 2:56Speaker 1: my wife when I first got saved, And so.
- 3:00Speaker 2: She didn't know what I was talking about. Amen.
- 3:02Speaker 1: This was way back in two thousand and one. But
- 3:04Speaker 1: it's the first scripture that God unctioned me to memorize.
- 3:08Speaker 1: He gave me this verse so that way I could
- 3:12Speaker 1: go ahead and go tell people that I was knew
- 3:15Speaker 1: that I was a new person. The old person was
- 3:18Speaker 1: gone and the new person has arrived.
- 3:20Speaker 2: Amen.
- 3:21Speaker 1: And I know a lot of people really don't grasp
- 3:24Speaker 1: that truth. But you are a new person in Christ.
- 3:27Speaker 2: Amen.
- 3:27Speaker 1: The old thing, the old heart for instance, let's just
- 3:30Speaker 1: say that the old heart no more is your heart deceitful, deceptive,
- 3:35Speaker 1: full of all that junk that it was filled with
- 3:38Speaker 1: until the day the Lord changed your life, to the
- 3:42Speaker 1: day the Lord forgave you for your sins, rescued you
- 3:45Speaker 1: right the day that He gave you the Holy Spirit God,
- 3:47Speaker 1: the day that He reknewed your mind renewed your heart.
- 3:50Speaker 1: A man, it's been a supernatural spiritual transplant in our hearts.
- 3:53Speaker 1: We no longer have that old, wicked, deceeaful heart.
- 3:57Speaker 2: Amen.
- 3:58Speaker 1: So now it is possible way of Holy Spirit to
- 4:01Speaker 1: follow the heart. The heart is a new heart, is
- 4:04Speaker 1: the heart of God. So I know you probably heard
- 4:06Speaker 1: messages that we still, after being born again, have a
- 4:09Speaker 1: deceitful heart. That's just not the way the scripture says.
- 4:12Speaker 1: That's not what God done has done through Jesus.
- 4:15Speaker 2: Amen. We have a complete renewal from head to toe. Amen. Literally.
- 4:21Speaker 1: So the new life is a journey of discovering what
- 4:24Speaker 1: it means to be in Christ, experiencing His love and
- 4:29Speaker 1: sharing it with others. Complete renewals tewod Corinthians, Chapter five,
- 4:34Speaker 1: verse number seventeen.
- 4:35Speaker 2: That's where we're going to be at today.
- 4:36Speaker 1: So if you have any questions, comments, concerns, or any
- 4:39Speaker 1: prayer requests, please don't hesitate to leave it on the
- 4:42Speaker 1: live chat. That's what we're here for. That's what we
- 4:44Speaker 1: do here on the Morning Devil. Since the Joanne has
- 4:47Speaker 1: a thing, I hear somebody talking in the background.
- 4:49Speaker 2: That was me.
- 4:50Speaker 1: When you hear that, it's because I'm testing out the
- 4:53Speaker 1: sound on the podcast and on the radio.
- 4:56Speaker 2: My bad.
- 4:56Speaker 1: I know it's a little bit too loud, ay man,
- 4:58Speaker 1: Thank you so much for letting me know that, Amen,
- 5:02Speaker 1: just because this early in the morning, is really nobody
- 5:05Speaker 1: up to monitor my sound.
- 5:07Speaker 2: Amen.
- 5:07Speaker 1: Sometimes my wife will do it, but she's asleep right now.
- 5:11Speaker 1: So let's go for it. Two Corinthians five seventeen. We're
- 5:15Speaker 1: gonna pray first. After we pray, we'll share this out
- 5:17Speaker 1: for like sixty seconds. When we come back on the
- 5:20Speaker 1: other side of those sixty seconds, we'll get right into
- 5:22Speaker 1: complete renewal today on the Morning Devote, let's pray, Father,
- 5:27Speaker 1: I thank you. I want everybody that's watching right now
- 5:30Speaker 1: to stretch out your hands, amen, even if you're listening,
- 5:32Speaker 1: stretch out your hands towards the device, amen, that you're
- 5:36Speaker 1: listening from.
- 5:37Speaker 2: Or that you're watching from.
- 5:38Speaker 1: Let's touch and agree that God will guide, guard and
- 5:41Speaker 1: protect us.
- 5:42Speaker 2: Amen.
- 5:43Speaker 1: Let's pray for our family that they will receive Holy
- 5:46Speaker 1: Spirit God, and that all those who are unsaved in
- 5:48Speaker 1: our family, both young and old and everybody in between.
- 5:52Speaker 2: Will be saved this year.
- 5:54Speaker 1: Before this year is over, they will come to the
- 5:56Speaker 1: Lord Jesus willingly, knowing that she is the Author, the factor,
- 6:00Speaker 1: the savior, a man, the love of this soul.
- 6:03Speaker 2: Let's agree and touch and agree. Amen. This year is
- 6:05Speaker 2: almost over, so we might as well.
- 6:07Speaker 1: Go ahead and stretch our hands and have faith towards
- 6:10Speaker 1: who we have faith in, towards one another, uniting our
- 6:13Speaker 1: faith knowing that we are completely renewed, that we are
- 6:17Speaker 1: born again. And if God could give us this born
- 6:19Speaker 1: again experience, why can't or why he won't?
- 6:22Speaker 2: Why won't he? Say?
- 6:24Speaker 1: The rest of our family a man because he loves
- 6:26Speaker 1: them just like he loves us. So I pray peace
- 6:29Speaker 1: be still over every single person that's living right now
- 6:33Speaker 1: a man and watching and listening right now.
- 6:35Speaker 2: That we will be a way of.
- 6:37Speaker 1: A bridge between God and man. We will be the messagers,
- 6:41Speaker 1: We will be the salt and light of the earth.
- 6:43Speaker 1: According to what Jesus calls us to be Amen. So
- 6:46Speaker 1: I pray Lord God, that you will remind us of
- 6:48Speaker 1: your complete renewal over our lives, that it is not
- 6:51Speaker 1: a halfway done job, that we are all away complete
- 6:55Speaker 1: in Christ. And I pray Lord God that we will
- 6:57Speaker 1: get understanding embedding a lives and better than our hearts
- 7:01Speaker 1: and our soul and our mind, that we would know
- 7:03Speaker 1: that spirit, Holy Spirit is speaking, and that we will
- 7:06Speaker 1: continue to follow the voice of God and the strangest
- 7:09Speaker 1: voice we will never follow. I pray this by faith
- 7:12Speaker 1: under the power Holy Spirit, knowing that you are able
- 7:14Speaker 1: and willing to answer our prayers according to every single
- 7:18Speaker 1: individual situation in Jesus Holy Name. We pray its by faith,
- 7:22Speaker 1: and those who agree we say amen to the Amen.
- 7:26Speaker 1: Let's go for it. Share this out, help me share
- 7:28Speaker 1: this out. Sixty seconds. When we come back, we'll get
- 7:30Speaker 1: right into it. I'll be right back. Alright, alright, we're back.
- 8:59Speaker 1: We're back on this morning. Devo complete renewal complete. I
- 9:03Speaker 1: made sure I put that complete word in there, because
- 9:06Speaker 1: if I would have just put renewal, you would have
- 9:08Speaker 1: thought about behavior, situations level.
- 9:10Speaker 2: God changed my behavior. God changed my attitude and.
- 9:14Speaker 1: Then you were left probably left it there like I
- 9:15Speaker 1: used to just leave it there, and I thought this
- 9:17Speaker 1: was going to be some kind of social experiment with
- 9:21Speaker 1: my life a man, some kind of psychiatry, or some
- 9:24Speaker 1: kind of you know, type of world change in my
- 9:29Speaker 1: heart based upon what man says the world, which how
- 9:33Speaker 1: the world would change. And that's not the case. This
- 9:36Speaker 1: concept of new life, this new complete renewal as a
- 9:40Speaker 1: Christian is encapulated in the idea of being a new
- 9:47Speaker 1: creation in Christ. Continue to remind yourself that you're a
- 9:51Speaker 1: new creation in Christ. That this world will try to
- 9:53Speaker 1: beat you down with your past. We'll try to resurrect
- 9:56Speaker 1: your old person, will try to resurrect your past and
- 9:59Speaker 1: keep it in front of us.
- 10:00Speaker 2: It's like, look what you.
- 10:01Speaker 1: Did five days ago, five years ago, fifty years ago,
- 10:04Speaker 1: ten years ago.
- 10:05Speaker 2: No, we don't live back there anymore.
- 10:07Speaker 1: It's obvious if somebody had a time capsule, the only
- 10:11Speaker 1: way I would go back is to talk to my
- 10:13Speaker 1: younger me and explain to my younger me if I
- 10:16Speaker 1: could go back in the time, talk about younger me
- 10:19Speaker 1: to stop making those bad choices and try to give
- 10:22Speaker 1: them the light and the gospel of Christ.
- 10:24Speaker 2: Amen. That's the only.
- 10:25Speaker 1: Way I would go back, if there were such take
- 10:27Speaker 1: as a time capsule and I could go back, is
- 10:29Speaker 1: to help my old self make better decisions, to speak
- 10:32Speaker 1: to my old my younger family members and tell them
- 10:36Speaker 1: the same, preach the Gospel to them, and you know,
- 10:39Speaker 1: and see what would happen in the future after that.
- 10:42Speaker 2: But we can't do that. We can't go back in
- 10:43Speaker 2: the past.
- 10:44Speaker 1: I don't know if anybody has created anything like that, Amen,
- 10:47Speaker 1: I doubt it highly. But if somebody did create something
- 10:51Speaker 1: to go back into time and man whatever do and
- 10:54Speaker 1: that way and man will alter our future. Well, guess what.
- 10:58Speaker 1: We have a guy who knows us before now and
- 11:01Speaker 1: knows our future.
- 11:02Speaker 2: Amen.
- 11:03Speaker 1: So I'd rather trust in the God who knows everything
- 11:06Speaker 1: and than a person that's trying to figure things out
- 11:10Speaker 1: in this world to go back or to go into
- 11:12Speaker 1: the future.
- 11:13Speaker 2: Amen. So I'd rather trust in the one who died
- 11:17Speaker 2: and rose again, the Lord Jesus Christ anything if he
- 11:20Speaker 2: could rise from the dead. He's telling us the truth.
- 11:24Speaker 2: He is beating sin, sickness, disease, and death.
- 11:27Speaker 1: He has already beat it, completely beat it because we
- 11:30Speaker 1: have a complete renewal in him. So listen, This is
- 11:33Speaker 1: a great deal, a great life plan. A man to
- 11:37Speaker 1: follow the Lord's footsteps, to be a christ follower, a
- 11:40Speaker 1: born again believer, to be a son or a daughter
- 11:43Speaker 1: of a living God, a living King, a holy, righteous,
- 11:46Speaker 1: loving God who loves us so much, a man that
- 11:49Speaker 1: he placed himself willingly on a cross to die and
- 11:53Speaker 1: suffer for me and for you. Who else would have
- 11:57Speaker 1: had done that? Who else was able to pay off
- 12:01Speaker 1: the sin that completely other than the perfect Lamb of God,
- 12:05Speaker 1: which is the Lord Jesus of Nazareth, is Shahamashiyakh Amen Jesus,
- 12:10Speaker 1: Yes you are amen.
- 12:12Speaker 2: Man.
- 12:13Speaker 1: I can't stop talking about what the Lord has done
- 12:15Speaker 1: in my life, Amen, and what he can do in
- 12:17Speaker 1: your life, and what he has already done in your
- 12:19Speaker 1: life if you're born again, and you could testify and
- 12:22Speaker 1: say amen, because you know, just like I know that
- 12:24Speaker 1: without him, where would we be It wasn't for the
- 12:26Speaker 1: grace of God, where would we be? Well, I'm here
- 12:30Speaker 1: to tell you we have complete renewal, complete renewal, Amen,
- 12:37Speaker 1: And we're going to run to the verse and find
- 12:39Speaker 1: out what this is all about. Two Corinthians, Chapter number five,
- 12:42Speaker 1: Verse number seventeen. Listen closely, the Bible says, therefore, if
- 12:47Speaker 1: anyone anyone, you see that, if anyone is in Christ,
- 12:52Speaker 1: it's in Christ that is grafted in joined to him
- 12:57Speaker 1: by faith in Him as Savior. He is or she is,
- 13:04Speaker 1: whether you're a young or old, or anything in between.
- 13:08Speaker 1: He is a new creature, new creature, reborn and renewed
- 13:15Speaker 1: by the Holy Spirit. Somebody say, amen to that. The
- 13:19Speaker 1: old things, the previous moral and spiritual condition, have passed away.
- 13:28Speaker 1: Let it go, it's dead. Behold, behold, grasp this new
- 13:34Speaker 1: things have come because spiritual awakening brings a new life.
- 13:43Speaker 1: This is a complete work of God.
- 13:45Speaker 2: Amen. We're plugged into the source. Amen. Now we're lit
- 13:49Speaker 2: up by the source Holy.
- 13:50Speaker 1: Spirit, and we have a new creation in this light
- 13:56Speaker 1: by the power of Holy Spirit.
- 13:57Speaker 2: Amen.
- 13:58Speaker 1: That's what the graphic is all about. This is what
- 14:00Speaker 1: I visioned. We plugged into the source, which is God,
- 14:03Speaker 1: the Father.
- 14:04Speaker 2: Amen.
- 14:05Speaker 1: Now we have the light and assault of the earth,
- 14:07Speaker 1: and inside the light of Christ we are sprowning up
- 14:11Speaker 1: a new life, completely new, complete renewal.
- 14:16Speaker 2: Amen.
- 14:17Speaker 1: This is no way a halfway job. This is a
- 14:20Speaker 1: complete work from the Father that we have in Heaven. Amen,
- 14:26Speaker 1: that we have in the Lord Oh bad, I put
- 14:30Speaker 1: the screen up too late. But we have a complete
- 14:33Speaker 1: work here. We are done with the old.
- 14:36Speaker 2: Amen.
- 14:36Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, I was just telling somebody
- 14:38Speaker 1: the old things are old, Like, why would you want
- 14:42Speaker 1: anything so old and so outdated? The criticist people criticize
- 14:48Speaker 1: our scriptures the Bible to be so old and to
- 14:51Speaker 1: be so outdated. We don't have an old and outdated word.
- 14:55Speaker 1: We have an on time word. We have a living word.
- 14:58Speaker 1: We have a relevant word, or we have a new
- 15:01Speaker 1: word for those who are just responding right now this
- 15:04Speaker 1: year to the Holy Spirit, to responding right now to
- 15:07Speaker 1: the Gospel.
- 15:08Speaker 2: This is all new.
- 15:10Speaker 1: So when I come to these scriptures and I'll be like, well,
- 15:13Speaker 1: they've probably heard the scripture before. I'm making an assumption
- 15:16Speaker 1: that I shouldn't be making. I'm making a judgment that
- 15:19Speaker 1: shouldn't be judging.
- 15:20Speaker 2: Amen. This could be something brand new to somebody right.
- 15:23Speaker 1: Now they realize, wait a minute, I'm not the old person. Hello,
- 15:28Speaker 1: Yesterday is gone. That's how new we are. We woke
- 15:32Speaker 1: up to a new day.
- 15:33Speaker 2: Amen. And if you have Holy Spirit in you, you
- 15:36Speaker 2: woke up to a new day in Christ.
- 15:39Speaker 1: That's the powerful thing about this message and this devotion
- 15:42Speaker 1: that we're sharing. Anyone is in Christ. The New creation
- 15:46Speaker 1: has come completely come. This is not like the progressive
- 15:51Speaker 1: brothers and sisters say all week the Holy Spirit is
- 15:54Speaker 1: gradually growing inside of us. That won't hold up weight
- 15:59Speaker 1: in any kind of Bible study if you look at
- 16:01Speaker 1: the scriptures, Bible no way says that Holy Spirit is
- 16:04Speaker 1: gradually growing inside of us. Bible says the Holy Spirit
- 16:07Speaker 1: is in every single one of God's children, a men,
- 16:10Speaker 1: reminding us of who He is, reminding of his word
- 16:13Speaker 1: over our lives, and reminding us who Jesus is right
- 16:17Speaker 1: and who God is in our lives. The old has
- 16:20Speaker 1: gone gone, the new is here. This means that our
- 16:25Speaker 1: old self, with its sinful nature. I don't know who
- 16:31Speaker 1: convinced me to start saying that I still have a
- 16:35Speaker 1: sinful nature inside of me as well as Holy Spirit
- 16:37Speaker 1: inside of me. I say that every now and dan,
- 16:40Speaker 1: and I'm like, who told me that? The Scripture doesn't
- 16:42Speaker 1: say that. Amen, it's like easier for us to say that,
- 16:46Speaker 1: so that way we can stay in our little guilt
- 16:48Speaker 1: and our little shame sessions for a little longer than
- 16:51Speaker 1: we're supposed to be. And man, if we believe that brother, Frank,
- 16:54Speaker 1: I see you. Good morning, God blessed and everybody in
- 16:56Speaker 1: the morning. Debo, love you all. Amen, thank you for
- 16:59Speaker 1: the love that you put out there, my brother, my friend.
- 17:02Speaker 1: So the old has gone the newest here. This means
- 17:04Speaker 1: that our old self, with its simple nature, has been
- 17:09Speaker 1: what crucified with Christ. If something is crucified, just followed
- 17:16Speaker 1: this way of thinking, at least the way I think that,
- 17:19Speaker 1: that means it's nailed to the cross. And last of
- 17:22Speaker 1: my checked, if something is nailed to the cross, that
- 17:25Speaker 1: whatever it is, that simple nature is dead.
- 17:29Speaker 2: It's dead.
- 17:31Speaker 1: I mean, if that thing comes off the cross and
- 17:34Speaker 1: resurrects herself, then we have a problem.
- 17:37Speaker 2: Amen.
- 17:37Speaker 1: But the only one that came off that cross and
- 17:39Speaker 1: resurrected he was taken down off the cross by a
- 17:43Speaker 1: friend and put into a borrow tomb, and three days
- 17:47Speaker 1: later rose from the dead.
- 17:50Speaker 2: Amen.
- 17:51Speaker 1: Now that has nothing to do with our simple nature.
- 17:54Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, it proves that we have
- 17:57Speaker 1: a divine nature. We're a partaker of partake us of
- 18:01Speaker 1: the Lord's divine nature.
- 18:03Speaker 2: Our own sinful nature. We wrestle with our.
- 18:07Speaker 1: Flesh and our flesh your desires which wants us to
- 18:10Speaker 1: sin wants to sin because it knows what sin feels like.
- 18:14Speaker 1: Our old self, our flesh, our evil desires, knows what
- 18:18Speaker 1: it feels like. Sin is a lot of fun, according
- 18:21Speaker 1: to the scriptures, but it's only fun for a season.
- 18:24Speaker 1: The Bible says, sin is pleasurable for a season. So
- 18:28Speaker 1: I'm not gonna sit here and lie and say, oh,
- 18:31Speaker 1: sin is whack. No, sin is not whack. Sin is
- 18:33Speaker 1: actually pleasurable to the flesh. Right, not for the spirit
- 18:38Speaker 1: of God, but for the flesh, but only for a season.
- 18:41Speaker 1: When that season is over, whatever sinful desire you're satisfying,
- 18:45Speaker 1: where you're gratifying.
- 18:46Speaker 2: Amen.
- 18:47Speaker 1: When that sinful nature or that sin season is over,
- 18:51Speaker 1: consequences are coming. You could bet your whole bank on
- 18:55Speaker 1: that consequences are coming. But in Christ, this old self
- 19:01Speaker 1: and its simple nature are gone because we have a
- 19:06Speaker 1: complete renewal. This is a complete renewal that God has
- 19:10Speaker 1: done in our hearts and our minds. Sounds outlandish, right,
- 19:15Speaker 1: because we've been taught traditionally for so many years that
- 19:19Speaker 1: we have two hearts, the heart of God, and we
- 19:22Speaker 1: still have the deceitful heart. According to some preaching that
- 19:26Speaker 1: we hear over and over again, if you hear something
- 19:28Speaker 1: over and over again and you don't look it up
- 19:31Speaker 1: for yourself, you might just agree and think that's the truth.
- 19:34Speaker 2: Amen. And I'm not gonna go on no tangents.
- 19:36Speaker 1: But you already know how I feel about certain traditional
- 19:39Speaker 1: teachings that when you look at the scripture, it's just
- 19:42Speaker 1: not it doesn't hold up.
- 19:44Speaker 2: Amen.
- 19:45Speaker 1: But some of the traditional teachings that we have been
- 19:47Speaker 1: taught in the past and sometimes right now, fortunately they
- 19:53Speaker 1: don't hold up to the scriptures. But if you don't
- 19:56Speaker 1: get into the world yourself, that's why I encourage everybody
- 19:58Speaker 1: to read the Word for yourself. You won't know these things,
- 20:01Speaker 1: but the Spirit of God. Allow Holy Spirit to guide
- 20:04Speaker 1: you and teaching into all truth.
- 20:06Speaker 2: Amen.
- 20:06Speaker 1: If this helps you out these morning DeVos, praise the Lord.
- 20:09Speaker 1: But get into the Word for yourself, because what will
- 20:12Speaker 1: happen is when you get into the Word yourself, guess
- 20:14Speaker 1: what else is getting inside of your mind and inside
- 20:17Speaker 1: of your way of thinking. Holy Spirit God, Amen, he
- 20:20Speaker 1: is the teacher. I'm inspired by Holy Spirit right now.
- 20:24Speaker 2: Amen.
- 20:24Speaker 1: I feel holy ghosts right now because I know that
- 20:28Speaker 1: I'm not equipped and I'm not as awake as I'm
- 20:31Speaker 1: looking right now. This is the Holy Spirit, my flesh,
- 20:35Speaker 1: my body, my old self, saying go back to sleep,
- 20:37Speaker 1: sam and be quiet. Holy Spirit is like God and
- 20:40Speaker 1: preached because he is coming through a live and direct
- 20:45Speaker 1: by way of his power and his love and his
- 20:47Speaker 1: grace and his mercy. So this means that our old self,
- 20:51Speaker 1: with the simple nature, has been crucified with Christ, and
- 20:55Speaker 1: we now live with a new heart and spirit. A
- 20:59Speaker 1: new heart and spirit. The old heart. We all agree,
- 21:05Speaker 1: we don't have to argue a debate about the old
- 21:07Speaker 1: heart that we were rolling around with, that we were
- 21:10Speaker 1: following was deceptive, evil, full of all things. A New
- 21:14Speaker 1: Testament says to guard our heart, and I believe it's
- 21:18Speaker 1: guard our new heart because all the issues of life
- 21:21Speaker 1: flow out of that. So we're not guarding our heart
- 21:24Speaker 1: if we're not putting out the armor of God. That
- 21:26Speaker 1: means we could be influenced by other things that this
- 21:29Speaker 1: world is trying to throw our way. Amen, And we
- 21:31Speaker 1: don't want no part of that. We don't need the
- 21:34Speaker 1: evil desires to be amplified by the evil desires of
- 21:38Speaker 1: this world or this evil system. We don't need help
- 21:42Speaker 1: having a flesh that wants to battle the spirit. We
- 21:45Speaker 1: don't need help in that department. We are crucifying the
- 21:48Speaker 1: sinful nature. Whou'sifying the flesh a man will a crucifying
- 21:52Speaker 1: our old self by the power.
- 21:54Speaker 2: Of God on his cross. Amen.
- 21:57Speaker 1: But the jobs I see you, bro, God bless you.
- 21:59Speaker 1: Hope you feeling better. Hope everything's working out with you.
- 22:02Speaker 1: Keep my brother Jonathan and your prayers.
- 22:04Speaker 2: Amen.
- 22:05Speaker 1: As he's fighting the good fight a man. He's not
- 22:07Speaker 1: giving up no time soon.
- 22:09Speaker 2: Amen. He's too young and too filled with God for
- 22:13Speaker 2: to give up. Amen. So let's pray continually for brother Jonathan. Amen.
- 22:17Speaker 2: On the checking So, God bless you.
- 22:19Speaker 1: My bro.
- 22:19Speaker 2: So listen.
- 22:21Speaker 1: This new life is in a dwelling life, and dwelling
- 22:26Speaker 1: by the presence of the Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit and dwells.
- 22:30Speaker 1: Holy Spirit is the only one that could satisfy us
- 22:33Speaker 1: completely because we have a complete renewal.
- 22:37Speaker 2: Complete. If somebody goes up to you and say, oh,
- 22:40Speaker 2: you know you have.
- 22:41Speaker 1: A little bit of this and a little bit of
- 22:42Speaker 1: that from the scriptures or from God, you know, kindly
- 22:46Speaker 1: say that you know you don't believe that. Kind you know,
- 22:49Speaker 1: with the kindness in your heart, say I don't believe that.
- 22:51Speaker 1: I believe I'm completely renewed. Go ahead and say it.
- 22:54Speaker 1: People say, oh, you guys are bragging, guys are capping.
- 22:57Speaker 1: You guys are this, you guys are you're Christians. Listen,
- 23:00Speaker 1: I'm completely renewed. If I was halfway renewed, what sense
- 23:04Speaker 1: would that make? I could go back in the world,
- 23:06Speaker 1: so that means I could be rocking with my old
- 23:09Speaker 1: self in the world and rocking with my new self
- 23:11Speaker 1: in church only and just have this split life, this
- 23:14Speaker 1: double life.
- 23:15Speaker 2: Nah, that doesn't work in the Kingdom of God.
- 23:17Speaker 1: Either you're all in or you're all out. You can't
- 23:20Speaker 1: have one foot in and one foot out. That just
- 23:23Speaker 1: doesn't make sense. If the word of God is sharper
- 23:26Speaker 1: than any double edged sword. And be careful if you're
- 23:29Speaker 1: trying to use the world system and use the Kingdom system,
- 23:32Speaker 1: because that word.
- 23:33Speaker 2: Would split you in half. And last time I checked,
- 23:36Speaker 2: if something splits.
- 23:37Speaker 1: Me and half, I'm not gonna be alive. Amen, I'm
- 23:40Speaker 1: gonna be gone for real, for real, like I'm not
- 23:44Speaker 1: going to be on this earth. But in the meantime,
- 23:46Speaker 1: I might as well agree with the word of God.
- 23:49Speaker 1: Challenge myself to agree with this word of God. Because
- 23:51Speaker 1: the flesh is always against the will and the work
- 23:54Speaker 1: of God in my life.
- 23:56Speaker 2: What about you?
- 23:57Speaker 1: We have a flesh that doesn't want us to do
- 24:00Speaker 1: what God wants us to do. The flesh wants to
- 24:02Speaker 1: do his own thing. I'm so convinced about that that
- 24:05Speaker 1: I wrote a book called The Flesh Is a Monster,
- 24:08Speaker 1: because I know my personal battle with the flesh.
- 24:11Speaker 2: What about you? Are you battling your flesh daily? Amen?
- 24:14Speaker 1: I do daily, but I know who wins the fight.
- 24:17Speaker 1: It's a fixed fight.
- 24:18Speaker 2: Amen.
- 24:19Speaker 1: We know who God is in our lives, and man,
- 24:21Speaker 1: we could go forward in victory knowing that He is
- 24:24Speaker 1: in us, working through us, and giving us a new life.
- 24:26Speaker 1: We are no longer slaves to sin, but we are
- 24:29Speaker 1: free to live our true identity as children of God.
- 24:33Speaker 1: Romans Chapter six, Versus six and seven. Check it out
- 24:36Speaker 1: for yourself.
- 24:37Speaker 2: Amen.
- 24:37Speaker 1: It's a lot more here, but I'm done. I'm out
- 24:40Speaker 1: of time, So listen. Take Second Corinthians chapter number five.
- 24:44Speaker 1: I think it was where we were. Yes, Second Corinthian
- 24:47Speaker 1: chapter number five. Read the whole chapter. We camped out
- 24:50Speaker 1: on verse seventeen. But I want you to read the
- 24:51Speaker 1: whole chapter and find out who you are in Christ,
- 24:55Speaker 1: your identity, Amen, and see for yourself. Is this a
- 24:58Speaker 1: halfway dumb job that God just halfway save me, or
- 25:01Speaker 1: is this a complete renewal in your heart and your
- 25:04Speaker 1: mind and your soul. The spirit is willing to flesh
- 25:06Speaker 1: is weak. Go ahead and find out what the Word
- 25:08Speaker 1: of God has for your life today, right now, in
- 25:11Speaker 1: Jesus' name. So let me get out of here. Let
- 25:13Speaker 1: me just send you off with a blessing.
- 25:14Speaker 2: God, bless you all, God keep you all, and remember
- 25:18Speaker 2: always that God He's good. Pace
