• 2:44
  Speaker 6: So we're discussing in this session along the lines of
• 2:48
  Speaker 6: the theme. We're looking at the subject of God's mercy.
• 2:52
  Speaker 6: And I can imagine that we have been blessed so
• 2:58
  Speaker 6: far from the beginning of this great conference. There are
• 3:10
  Speaker 6: two aspects that I want to I want to discuss
• 3:16
  Speaker 6: throughout my sessions will start today and then we wrap
• 3:19
  Speaker 6: up tomorrow. And I believe that there is a construction
• 3:27
  Speaker 6: that must happen to our understanding of God's messy if
• 3:31
  Speaker 6: we are to benefit from that whole idea of his messy.
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: Most believers know that the messy of God is available,
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: but they do not understand the nature of God's messy
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: know how to take advantage of it. So, in addition
• 3:51
  Speaker 6: to what the speakers have brought and said, I hope
• 3:54
  Speaker 6: that God will grant us disunderstanding in Jesus' name.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: I believe that.
• 4:04
  Speaker 6: When you understand, for you to understand the subject of messy.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: There are two.
• 4:14
  Speaker 6: Two concepts that you have to understand and study. Number
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: one is the nature of God. You have to study
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: the nature of God, otherwise you can never truly understand messy.
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: Number two, you have to study the nature of man.
• 4:35
  Speaker 6: So from from a theological or a doctrinal standpoint, I
• 4:42
  Speaker 6: believe and I'm convinced that there are three fields of
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: doctrine that capture the whole idea of the messy of God.
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: Number one is called theology. Please pay attention. Theology is
• 4:59
  Speaker 6: the of the nature of God. That it is impossible
• 5:04
  Speaker 6: to really truly understand the messy of God until you
• 5:10
  Speaker 6: understand the nature and the character of God. Number two,
• 5:15
  Speaker 6: it's called anthropology. Anthropology is the study of man, whether
• 5:22
  Speaker 6: it is from an archeological standpoint, from a sociological standpoint.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: When you understand man, you will now know.
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: Why man perpetually needs to live in the reality of
• 5:35
  Speaker 6: God's messy. Are we learning already so that there are
• 5:38
  Speaker 6: three expressions doctrinally speaking, If we are to do justice
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: to the subject of messy, we must understand theology the
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: nature of God.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Number two, we.
• 5:50
  Speaker 6: Must understand anthropology the nature of man. Number three, we
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: have to understand soteriology.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Soteriology is the entire.
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: Discourse of the plan of salvation, because the salvation of
• 6:06
  Speaker 6: man is the zenith of the demonstration of God's messy.
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: We learning, so we have theology, the study of God,
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: anthropology the study of man, and then so terryology, the
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: study of salvation.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: Beginning from the fall of Man.
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: So we follow through the law, the prophets, then Jesus,
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: then the implication of all that Jesus came to do
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: that was captured in salvation.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Allelujah.
• 6:36
  Speaker 6: But for the time that I have, I would just
• 6:39
  Speaker 6: want to touch a bit on the nature of God
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: and then the nature of man.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Then we try to tie up.
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: I just want to introduce from my session the concept
• 6:50
  Speaker 6: of messy, so that we will understand the foundation and the.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Basis for messy.
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: I hope that in the session tomorrow would now consider
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: the administration of messy, the spiritual system by which messy
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: is administered.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Are we together praise the name of the Lord.
• 7:09
  Speaker 6: Let's look at two scriptures some fifty one and verse one.
• 7:14
  Speaker 6: Popular Scripture Messy some fifty one and verse one. It says,
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: have messy upon me, Oh God, according to thy loving kindness.
• 7:25
  Speaker 6: Take note of that. So your messy is tied to
• 7:29
  Speaker 6: your loving kindness. It says, according to the multitude of
• 7:33
  Speaker 6: thy tender messies, blot out my transgression. Scripture number two Nehemia,
• 7:41
  Speaker 6: chapter nine from verse thirty Please write it down. Nehe
• 7:45
  Speaker 6: Maya chapter nine from verse thirty and thirty one. Or
• 7:53
  Speaker 6: let's look at thirty one for sake of time. It says, Nevertheless,
• 7:59
  Speaker 6: for thy great messy sick, dou did not utterly consume them,
• 8:04
  Speaker 6: nor forsake them. For dou at a gracious and messyful God.
• 8:12
  Speaker 6: This is the reason why they became recipients of messy,
• 8:17
  Speaker 6: more than their desire.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: To obtain messy. There is something.
• 8:20
  Speaker 6: About your nature that you are a messiful and a
• 8:24
  Speaker 6: gracious God.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Are we learning.
• 8:27
  Speaker 6: One last scripture Psalms thirteen and verse fifteen, just to
• 8:32
  Speaker 6: set a foundation, and then we'll go into the discussion
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: of the nature Verse five, Psalm thirteen and verse five place.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: But I have.
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: Trusted in thy messy, therefore my heart shall rejoice in
• 8:50
  Speaker 6: your salvation. I have trusted in your messy, therefore my
• 8:57
  Speaker 6: heart shall rejoice in yourself. Let's examine the nature of
• 9:03
  Speaker 6: God in an attempt to understand the basis for this
• 9:08
  Speaker 6: mysterious subject of messy, not necessarily mysterious as though it
• 9:15
  Speaker 6: were desired to be hidden, but that it takes spiritual
• 9:19
  Speaker 6: intelligence and illumination to really understand messy. As simple as
• 9:23
  Speaker 6: the concept sounds, we can be around it and never
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: truly understand it, appreciate it, or know how to partake
• 9:32
  Speaker 6: of it in experience. So let's examine the nature of God.
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: The Bible tells us very clearly. According to First John,
• 9:40
  Speaker 6: Chapter four and verse eight, this biblically speaking, is about
• 9:45
  Speaker 6: the most striking character of God. It says, God is love.
• 9:52
  Speaker 6: Please say it after me, God, one more time.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: Please.
• 9:58
  Speaker 6: We're examining the name nature of God. The Bible lets
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: us know that God is love. He does not just love.
• 10:09
  Speaker 6: God is love, is not just what he does.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: It is who he is. Are we learning now? God
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: is Love?
• 10:19
  Speaker 6: Psalms forty five from verse eight and nine, p. One
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: forty five I meant to say one forty five some
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: one forty five, eight and nine.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: It says the.
• 10:31
  Speaker 6: Lord is gracious and full of compassion. These are descriptions
• 10:38
  Speaker 6: He is helping you understand the nature of this God.
• 10:42
  Speaker 6: The Lord is gracious, it says, and full of compassion,
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: that he is slow to anger and of great messy.
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: Verse nine, he says, the Lord is good to how many?
• 10:57
  Speaker 6: This is the extent of his benevolence, that in communicating
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: compassion and messy, he does not spare. He is good
• 11:06
  Speaker 6: to all, and that his tender messies are over all
• 11:10
  Speaker 6: his works.
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: Allelujah.
• 11:18
  Speaker 6: In Genesis chapter thirty four, Genesis chapter thirty four, we.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: Read verse five and six.
• 11:25
  Speaker 6: This was Moses up Mount Sinai when he was having
• 11:29
  Speaker 6: a conversation with God over the issue of the commandments.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: Genesis thirty four. Did I get that right? Please help me?
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: Five and six?
• 11:45
  Speaker 6: Is it Exodus Exodus thirty four? Forgive me, please, Exodus,
• 11:49
  Speaker 6: thank you, I said, Genesis exodors, Please correct it. The
• 11:53
  Speaker 6: Lord descended in the cloud and stood with him there.
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: This was Moses now Upmans and proclaimed the name of
• 12:02
  Speaker 6: the Lord.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: What did he say?
• 12:05
  Speaker 6: The Lord passed before him, and proclaim the Lord, the
• 12:09
  Speaker 6: Lord God, merciful and gracious, long suffering, and abundant in
• 12:16
  Speaker 6: goodness and truth. These are all scriptures that attempts to
• 12:22
  Speaker 6: describe the nature of God. So we see that God
• 12:26
  Speaker 6: is love. We see that God is full of compassion,
• 12:29
  Speaker 6: he is slow to anger. He is rich in love,
• 12:35
  Speaker 6: and that he is messy is over all his works. Now,
• 12:41
  Speaker 6: let's study very quickly the nature of man. Now that
• 12:45
  Speaker 6: we have had a fair idea about God, as far
• 12:50
  Speaker 6: as his nature is concerned, that his love is merciful,
• 12:54
  Speaker 6: he's compassionate. Let's look at man some fifty one and
• 13:01
  Speaker 6: verse five. Behold, I was shapen in iniquity, Ladies and gentlemen.
• 13:11
  Speaker 6: This is an attempt to describe man. And in scene
• 13:16
  Speaker 6: did my mother conceive me? Very very interesting?
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: No, just kip verse five.
• 13:22
  Speaker 6: It says that I was shapen in iniquity. Do you
• 13:29
  Speaker 6: know what iniquity is? Iniquity is not seen, as you
• 13:31
  Speaker 6: can see here. The Bible gives a difference. Iniquity comes
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: from the Greek word is a one, and it means
• 13:42
  Speaker 6: an inherent flaw, that there is already a default, a
• 13:48
  Speaker 6: default in character.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: Inherently are we together? Now?
• 13:52
  Speaker 6: This is the state of the fallen man. He says
• 13:54
  Speaker 6: I was shapen in iniquity, And in scene did.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: My mother conceive me?
• 14:02
  Speaker 6: Jeremiah seventeen and verse nine Popular Scripture Jeremiah seventeen and
• 14:07
  Speaker 6: verse nine Here's what the Bible says about the heart
• 14:10
  Speaker 6: of man, that the heart is deceitful above all things.
• 14:15
  Speaker 6: For you to appreciate the scripture, you have to find
• 14:17
  Speaker 6: out what else is deceptive. The Bible says, the heart
• 14:21
  Speaker 6: is deceitful above all things. That means it is not
• 14:24
  Speaker 6: the only thing that is deceitful, but compared to every
• 14:27
  Speaker 6: other thing that deceives, the heart is deceitful above all things,
• 14:33
  Speaker 6: and desperately wicked.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: Who can know it?
• 14:37
  Speaker 6: This is a description an x ray into the heart
• 14:42
  Speaker 6: of man, and the Bible says, the heart of man,
• 14:45
  Speaker 6: by default, outside of the influence of God's.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: Messy, is deceptful even to the owner of the heart.
• 15:02
  Speaker 6: Genesis, chapter six and verse five. This was a painful
• 15:07
  Speaker 6: assessment of man. When you read from verse one, the
• 15:10
  Speaker 6: Bible now begins to tell you that when men multiplied,
• 15:13
  Speaker 6: you know and feel the face of the earth, daughters
• 15:16
  Speaker 6: were born to them, and all of that.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: The encounter between the.
• 15:22
  Speaker 6: Those we call the fallen angels and the daughters of men.
• 15:27
  Speaker 6: The Bible calls them sons of God benign elo him.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: That is the word you see.
• 15:32
  Speaker 6: And then he says that they saw the daughters of men,
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: and so on and so forth. When we get to
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: verse six, verse six, In fact, the Bible says, let's
• 15:42
  Speaker 6: look at five. God saw that the wickedness of man
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: was great in the earth.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: Who saw this?
• 15:52
  Speaker 6: Is God assessing man from his standpoint, that he saw
• 15:56
  Speaker 6: that the wickedness of man was great in the earth,
• 15:59
  Speaker 6: and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart
• 16:03
  Speaker 6: was only evil. How long continually verse six, and it
• 16:11
  Speaker 6: repented God that he had made man on the earth,
• 16:15
  Speaker 6: and it grieved him at his heart. So we see
• 16:21
  Speaker 6: that man, out of the outside the influence of God's
• 16:25
  Speaker 6: grace and messy, has nothing, absolutely nothing that is commendable.
• 16:31
  Speaker 6: Every scripture that describes man is a story of pain
• 16:35
  Speaker 6: and war, the foolishness, the deceptiveness of the heart of man.
• 16:43
  Speaker 6: Like I said earlier on, when we understand the nature
• 16:47
  Speaker 6: of God, and we can contrast it with the nature
• 16:50
  Speaker 6: of man, then we can.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Now begin to appreciate the concept of his messy. Allelujah.
• 16:59
  Speaker 6: According to scripture, I wrote something down here.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: You may want to pay attention to it.
• 17:05
  Speaker 6: Any action you take that is motivated by compassion is
• 17:12
  Speaker 6: generally called messy.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Any action that is.
• 17:17
  Speaker 6: Motivated by compassion. The Bible tells us that the Lord
• 17:26
  Speaker 6: is gracious, he is full of compassion, and that is
• 17:31
  Speaker 6: the reason why he is able to show messy.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: May I define messy? Therefore, let me give you.
• 17:39
  Speaker 6: Three definitions very quickly, and then we just tie up.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: A few things and pray. Are we learning? Number one?
• 17:46
  Speaker 6: Messy here, I wrote, is compassionate treatment of those who
• 17:52
  Speaker 6: are in distress. The first definition of messy here compassionate treatment, because,
• 17:59
  Speaker 6: as we'll be learning, mercy is.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: Not just.
• 18:04
  Speaker 6: From God towards man and God towards creation. Messy also
• 18:09
  Speaker 6: extends from man to man.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: Are we together? If our idea of messy.
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: Just stops from God to man, then it is not complete,
• 18:21
  Speaker 6: because the Bible says, Blessed said other mercyfool.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: For they shall be shown. Are we together now? So?
• 18:31
  Speaker 6: Compassionate treatment of those in distress is called mercy. That means,
• 18:38
  Speaker 6: when you communicate compassion to those who are in any
• 18:42
  Speaker 6: kind of distress, it is called mercy.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: Number two.
• 18:46
  Speaker 6: The second definition of mercy here is refraining from harm
• 18:52
  Speaker 6: or punishing offenders. That means, when you refrain from administering
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: or punishment to one who is guilty, you have shown
• 19:04
  Speaker 6: messy are we learning now? So messy is refraining from
• 19:09
  Speaker 6: harming or punishing.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: An offender one who is guilty.
• 19:14
  Speaker 6: Generally speaking, now, the degree to which you refrain from
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: harming or administering punishment to one who is guilty is
• 19:24
  Speaker 6: called messy. One final definition, the disposition.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: To be forgiving to pity or to be kind.
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: The disposition to be forgiving to pity or to be kind.
• 19:47
  Speaker 6: The disposition to be forgiving to pity or to be kind,
• 19:55
  Speaker 6: is called messy. In fact, can I add one more
• 19:58
  Speaker 6: definition to it? Showing care and providing relief is called messy.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Showing care and providing relief.
• 20:11
  Speaker 6: As we're going to be learning, the healing ministry is
• 20:15
  Speaker 6: administered under the messy of God. You see that now,
• 20:19
  Speaker 6: The entire scope of not just salvation from sin, the healing,
• 20:26
  Speaker 6: anything that is administered to man that provides relief is
• 20:32
  Speaker 6: sponsored by the messy of God. So you can now
• 20:37
  Speaker 6: understand why blind Bartimios did not say, son of Man,
• 20:41
  Speaker 6: heal me.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: He said, son of man, thou, son.
• 20:45
  Speaker 6: Of David, have messy, because what I am looking for
• 20:50
  Speaker 6: is only activated in the presence of your messy. Messy
• 21:00
  Speaker 6: passionate treatment of those in distress, refraining from harming or
• 21:06
  Speaker 6: punishing offenders or they that are guilty, the disposition to
• 21:10
  Speaker 6: be forgiving, the disposition to pity or to be kind,
• 21:15
  Speaker 6: and then finally showing care and providing relief. All of
• 21:21
  Speaker 6: these definitions is safe to call every one of these
• 21:25
  Speaker 6: definitions an appropriate definition of messy. We see from all
• 21:35
  Speaker 6: these definitions that there are two expressions of messy. Number one,
• 21:40
  Speaker 6: the first expression deals with forgiveness or withholding punishment. Broadly speaking,
• 21:47
  Speaker 6: now that whenever we talk about messy, there are two
• 21:51
  Speaker 6: main expressions with based on all these definitions. Number one
• 21:56
  Speaker 6: is forgiveness or withholding punishment. That is the first expression
• 22:01
  Speaker 6: of messy. The second is alleviating pain, alleviating distress, providing
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: relief from suffering. Please follow very carefully. Now we're building
• 22:13
  Speaker 6: now that every time we're discussing the subject of messy
• 22:17
  Speaker 6: from a kingdom perspective, there are.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: Two broad angles to it.
• 22:21
  Speaker 6: Number one, it has to do with forgiveness withholding punishment
• 22:29
  Speaker 6: from he or them that are deserving of it, the guilty.
• 22:34
  Speaker 6: And then number two, alleviating pain, distress and providing relief
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: from suffering.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: In the kingdom.
• 22:45
  Speaker 6: When we talk about messy, your mind must be able
• 22:48
  Speaker 6: to see it from the lens of these two perspectives.
• 22:51
  Speaker 6: Every time God administers messy, he's doing one of two things.
• 22:56
  Speaker 6: Number one, he is forgiving or withholding punishment from a
• 23:02
  Speaker 6: people who are deserving of it. Or number two, he's
• 23:06
  Speaker 6: alleviating pain, distress and providing relief from suffering.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: Are you learning? Why do you need to know this?
• 23:24
  Speaker 6: So that number one, you will appreciate the concept of messy,
• 23:28
  Speaker 6: then you will know how to receive the administration of
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: that messy in your life. And then you will also
• 23:36
  Speaker 6: know how to communicate messy because if you know that
• 23:39
  Speaker 6: messy is too dimensional, it has to do with forgiveness
• 23:44
  Speaker 6: and it has to do with relieving of pain and distress.
• 23:48
  Speaker 6: So when the Bible says, Blessed are the mercyful, now
• 23:51
  Speaker 6: you know what he's saying that Blessed are those who
• 23:54
  Speaker 6: are apt to forgive, Blessed are those who are a
• 24:00
  Speaker 6: very very insistent in withholding punishment from them that are deserving.
• 24:05
  Speaker 6: And then blessed a day that supports the freedom of
• 24:09
  Speaker 6: men from pain from relief. That means the healing ministry
• 24:13
  Speaker 6: is the ministry of messy. The evangelistic ministry is the
• 24:17
  Speaker 6: ministry of messy.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: Blessed are the mercyful. We leave that for tomorrow, but.
• 24:23
  Speaker 6: Just for you to really be able to understand, so
• 24:25
  Speaker 6: that it does not become an abstract concept. Messy goes
• 24:31
  Speaker 6: beyond pardon from sin. Pardon from sin is wonderful, but
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: even in the faith you will still need to operate
• 24:40
  Speaker 6: by that understanding of messy.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: Messy is not just for sein us. It is the
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: basis for doing business with God in this kingdom. Are
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: we together now? Yeah?
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: Write this down please. The foundation and the basis from
• 24:59
  Speaker 6: men see is compassion. The foundation and the basis.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: For messy is compassion.
• 25:09
  Speaker 6: That means it is impossible to administer messy.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: Messy is the foot of compassion.
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: The foundation and the basis for messy is compassion.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: Love.
• 25:25
  Speaker 6: What is compassion, sympathy, pity, concern for the sufferings or
• 25:32
  Speaker 6: the misfortune of others. It is impossible to administer messy
• 25:39
  Speaker 6: until you have compassion.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: Now listen very carefully.
• 25:44
  Speaker 6: Compassion has to do with feelings.
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: Messy has to do with action. You see that.
• 25:52
  Speaker 6: When compassion is emotion, it is no longer called compassion,
• 25:56
  Speaker 6: It is called messy.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: Messy is the foot of compassion.
• 26:07
  Speaker 6: When it has to do with messy, the Bible uses
• 26:11
  Speaker 6: the expression show messy or have messy.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: It does not say think messy.
• 26:19
  Speaker 6: It does not say feel messy, because messy is always action.
• 26:24
  Speaker 6: Thou shall arise and have messy upon Zion for the time.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: To favor her.
• 26:31
  Speaker 6: Yay, the sad time, Thou, son of David, have messy
• 26:38
  Speaker 6: on me? Are we learning? So the foundation for messy
• 26:46
  Speaker 6: is compassion love. It is impossible to be able to
• 26:52
  Speaker 6: administer messy except you have love. The reason why God
• 26:58
  Speaker 6: is mercyful is because God is love. The reason why
• 27:04
  Speaker 6: man can be merciful is because man is also a
• 27:10
  Speaker 6: recipient of that love nature. And if allowed to be
• 27:15
  Speaker 6: activated through faith, then you can also be an administrator
• 27:21
  Speaker 6: of mersy. So why are we've bankrupt of messy in
• 27:31
  Speaker 6: our world today? From a standpoint of men to men,
• 27:35
  Speaker 6: the simple reason is because we do not dwell in love.
• 27:40
  Speaker 6: Let me define for you. Let me give you my
• 27:43
  Speaker 6: definition of love. I've studied a bit on the subject
• 27:47
  Speaker 6: of love, believe me, and here.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: Is my conclusion. Love is the absence of self. That
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: is it.
• 27:58
  Speaker 6: You can literally gauge love to the degree to which
• 28:01
  Speaker 6: self is not there.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: And you can gage lack of love.
• 28:06
  Speaker 6: You can use the index of self as the ultimate test.
• 28:12
  Speaker 6: Love is the absence of self, more than a feeling,
• 28:17
  Speaker 6: more than the emotional construct of your heart. You can
• 28:20
  Speaker 6: know whether love is present in a place by checking
• 28:24
  Speaker 6: whether self is there.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: Love and self is like light and darkness.
• 28:32
  Speaker 6: The moment there is self, there cannot be love God's love.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: So true love is the absence of self.
• 28:41
  Speaker 6: In fact, listen, the nature of love mandates that you
• 28:46
  Speaker 6: cannot find fulfillment until you communicate that love to an
• 28:51
  Speaker 6: object outside of you. The very character of true love
• 28:57
  Speaker 6: mandates that you cannot derive satisfied.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: In just loving yourself.
• 29:02
  Speaker 6: You must communicate that love to an object outside you
• 29:05
  Speaker 6: to be satisfied. That is why, naturally speaking, the character
• 29:10
  Speaker 6: of love is that it gives.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: For god soul loved the world.
• 29:14
  Speaker 6: That he forget about what he gave, Just know that
• 29:18
  Speaker 6: he gave. So anything you sow love, you must give
• 29:22
  Speaker 6: to it. If you sol love vision, you give to
• 29:26
  Speaker 6: it your time, your intelligence. If you sol love God,
• 29:29
  Speaker 6: you give to it. If you so love your spouse,
• 29:32
  Speaker 6: you give giving. When giving is absent. There is no love.
• 29:42
  Speaker 6: God so loved the world that he gave. He gave
• 29:45
  Speaker 6: many things, ultimately his son. He gave us his spirit,
• 29:50
  Speaker 6: He gave us his life. He gave us access to
• 29:54
  Speaker 6: every spiritual blessing that resides in the heavenly places. The
• 29:58
  Speaker 6: Bible says, so loved that he gave Messy is a
• 30:04
  Speaker 6: foot of compassion. So the real prayer is not make
• 30:10
  Speaker 6: me merciful Ah. The real prayer is that the love
• 30:15
  Speaker 6: of Jesus and his compassion will grow. That we will
• 30:19
  Speaker 6: grow in love, because when you grow in love truthfully,
• 30:25
  Speaker 6: it will become natural.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: To communicate Messy. Are we together? Yes.
• 30:32
  Speaker 6: Most times you would see in Jesus's healing meetings, the
• 30:36
  Speaker 6: Bible would say he was moved with compassion, not moved
• 30:40
  Speaker 6: with power.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: He was moved with compassion.
• 30:43
  Speaker 6: He looked at the people and saw them like sheep
• 30:46
  Speaker 6: without a shepherd. Jesus wept twice in the Bible. One
• 30:50
  Speaker 6: of it was at the tomb of Lazarus. The other
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: was when he looked at Jerusalem. The Bible says he
• 30:56
  Speaker 6: wept over them and said, Jerusalem, Jerusalem, if you had
• 30:59
  Speaker 6: known even in this your time the things that pertain
• 31:03
  Speaker 6: for your peace, but now they I heed from you.
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: Praise the name of the Lord.
• 31:13
  Speaker 6: The foundation for Biblical messy is compassion. Did I define compassion?
• 31:23
  Speaker 6: The Bible defines it. And here's my definition of compassion.
• 31:28
  Speaker 6: The ability to be touched with the feelings of people's
• 31:31
  Speaker 6: infirmity is called compassion. The ability sad for we do
• 31:37
  Speaker 6: not have a high priest who has not been touched
• 31:40
  Speaker 6: with the feelings of our infirmity.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: It is the reason why even when Jesus was done.
• 31:46
  Speaker 6: The work of salvation was over, he still went to
• 31:49
  Speaker 6: heaven as a man, and he sat down there and
• 31:52
  Speaker 6: continued a ministry of intercession, not for himself, for the saints,
• 31:58
  Speaker 6: because the character of love is that it finds satisfaction
• 32:01
  Speaker 6: bringing joy to an object outside of itself. He's seated
• 32:07
  Speaker 6: at the right hand of the Father and he makes intercession.
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: Do you know how his.
• 32:13
  Speaker 6: Intercession is sponsored by his compassion more than his power.
• 32:17
  Speaker 6: That means he looks at the Father and says, Father,
• 32:22
  Speaker 6: if I did not become a man, it would be
• 32:24
  Speaker 6: easy for me to blame these people.
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: But I am a man.
• 32:27
  Speaker 6: I know what it means to be hated for a
• 32:29
  Speaker 6: right cause. That is the basis of his intercession. He
• 32:33
  Speaker 6: has been there. He was hated for no, cause he
• 32:36
  Speaker 6: blessed people and they said, crucify him.
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: The heat of his bread adds the.
• 32:42
  Speaker 6: Fish, and they still said crucify him. So when he
• 32:45
  Speaker 6: sees someone who is loved for serving God and persecuted
• 32:49
  Speaker 6: in a family, his intercessory ministry is based on the
• 32:53
  Speaker 6: fact that there is a point of contact. Can I
• 32:56
  Speaker 6: tell you this. One of the ways that God makes
• 32:59
  Speaker 6: great people is to allow them go through several things
• 33:03
  Speaker 6: that connect them with the.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: Feelings of the people that will be helping in future.
• 33:07
  Speaker 6: So that when you stand before people, he may not
• 33:12
  Speaker 6: necessarily cause the tragedies, but in his wisdom he can
• 33:16
  Speaker 6: work out a way. So when you are a great persons,
• 33:19
  Speaker 6: a leader, a man of God, a business man, part
• 33:22
  Speaker 6: of the many reasons why you are great is because
• 33:25
  Speaker 6: your life is full of stories. There are memories that
• 33:28
  Speaker 6: connect you to several angles of people's pain.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: So many times when people.
• 33:33
  Speaker 6: Are shouting, you say leave them, and they say, Sir,
• 33:36
  Speaker 6: I leave them. So we command fire down, and Jesus said, no,
• 33:39
  Speaker 6: do you not know what spirit you are of? You
• 33:42
  Speaker 6: know people who have grown because their lives are full
• 33:46
  Speaker 6: of history. God has brought them through seasons and they
• 33:49
  Speaker 6: have been they have been in touch with several levels
• 33:53
  Speaker 6: of pain, disappointment, shame.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: They understand the nature of man.
• 33:58
  Speaker 6: Nothing surprises them. Again, are you learning?
• 34:09
  Speaker 5: Yes?
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: So Jesus is in heaven.
• 34:13
  Speaker 6: He's making intercession, and the basis of his intercession is
• 34:18
  Speaker 6: that as a high priest, even though he is the
• 34:23
  Speaker 6: son of the living God, he was subject to like passion.
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: He was hungry, he was testy. Jesus tasted luck.
• 34:32
  Speaker 6: He was hungry, and the Bible did not hide it
• 34:35
  Speaker 6: that he went to a tree hoping to get food.
• 34:37
  Speaker 6: Is it in your Bible? And that he did not
• 34:39
  Speaker 6: get the food. He did not just say three, I
• 34:41
  Speaker 6: love you. He expresses frustration in the presence of tiredness,
• 34:45
  Speaker 6: so when he sees weariness on earth, he can't connect
• 34:48
  Speaker 6: to it. The preacher is not a bad man. He's
• 34:50
  Speaker 6: just weary five years without results. That human nature is crying,
• 34:55
  Speaker 6: and that becomes the basis.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: Of his compassion, his intercession.
• 34:59
  Speaker 6: When listen, there is a way you become too innocent.
• 35:02
  Speaker 6: You cannot really administer messy because you have been shielded
• 35:08
  Speaker 6: from too many things in life, So it is difficult
• 35:11
  Speaker 6: for you to connect with people's pain and tears. Why
• 35:18
  Speaker 6: is the preacher shouting like that, What is then persecution?
• 35:21
  Speaker 6: You say, what is then losing in this business? You
• 35:25
  Speaker 6: just lost one billion? So what Just pray and God
• 35:28
  Speaker 6: will help you. When you see great people keep quiet,
• 35:31
  Speaker 6: it's proof of growth. There are stories in their lives
• 35:34
  Speaker 6: that can connect to the pain of the people they
• 35:37
  Speaker 6: are ministring to. Let me tell you this, if you
• 35:39
  Speaker 6: study the dynamics of the anointing, you find out that
• 35:42
  Speaker 6: your pain is a gift because that becomes the door.
• 35:45
  Speaker 6: Do you know why Jesus in heaven today still has
• 35:48
  Speaker 6: the scars on his hand?
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: You would think.
• 35:51
  Speaker 6: One who resurrected by the power of the spirit all
• 35:54
  Speaker 6: those cars should heal that car that was a symbol
• 35:57
  Speaker 6: of shame. Today is the basis of is honored. Every
• 36:03
  Speaker 6: time he looks at those hands, they remind him of
• 36:06
  Speaker 6: his compassion.
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: The frailty of men.
• 36:09
  Speaker 6: So he deals with us from the lens of his compassion.
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: But thou, oh.
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: Lord ashie from me my glory you lived me.
• 36:30
  Speaker 9: But thou Lord aeld from me.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: My glory holy around You See.
• 36:46
  Speaker 6: When I pray for the sick and I'm minister, I
• 36:48
  Speaker 6: don't just minister because the Bible says to do it
• 36:51
  Speaker 6: I have.
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: Been sick before, really really sick.
• 36:56
  Speaker 6: I've been diagnosed with conditions that were not good, and
• 37:02
  Speaker 6: the Lord preserve the pain of that experience, and that
• 37:07
  Speaker 6: becomes the sponsor and the trigger to the anointing.
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: When I see someone going through pain.
• 37:13
  Speaker 6: Today, it is not just because the Bible says to
• 37:16
  Speaker 6: heal and to pray for the person.
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: There is there is I have I have in the
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: archives of my life.
• 37:24
  Speaker 6: There is there is the gift of pain that was taught,
• 37:28
  Speaker 6: and it today becomes the basis. It sponsors patience, It
• 37:33
  Speaker 6: sponsors for parents. When you see people who do not
• 37:39
  Speaker 6: show messy in our life, in our world today, there
• 37:42
  Speaker 6: are only two explanations.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: Number one, they are children.
• 37:45
  Speaker 6: Or number two, they have not really faced the reality
• 37:48
  Speaker 6: of life.
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: You see that the.
• 37:50
  Speaker 6: Older people are even those who are temperos when they
• 37:53
  Speaker 6: were young, something happens to them.
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: They become like children again.
• 37:57
  Speaker 6: Because fifty years of living in this wicked world should
• 38:01
  Speaker 6: teach you a lesson, whether you are ready to learn
• 38:03
  Speaker 6: or not, it teaches you so many things. So when
• 38:11
  Speaker 6: they brought the woman who was caught in adultery in
• 38:15
  Speaker 6: the very act, the Bible says, interesting that they didn't
• 38:19
  Speaker 6: bring the man. You don't commit adultery with yourself. And
• 38:24
  Speaker 6: yet they spared the man and dragged the woman few
• 38:27
  Speaker 6: her before Jesus and said, this woman was caught in
• 38:29
  Speaker 6: the very act.
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: What do you say. If you come as.
• 38:33
  Speaker 6: A prophet, you cannot fight other prophets before you. So
• 38:36
  Speaker 6: let's hear what you will say. And Jesus was writing
• 38:42
  Speaker 6: on the ground, and here's what he said. He didn't say,
• 38:45
  Speaker 6: I am Jesus. He didn't say leave me alone. He
• 38:49
  Speaker 6: said he among all of you who were standing here,
• 38:53
  Speaker 6: based on the nature.
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: Of man, he who does not have seen stone.
• 39:03
  Speaker 6: And the Bible says they were convicted from the oldest
• 39:06
  Speaker 6: next verse, from.
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: The whole.
• 39:10
  Speaker 6: They were convicted by their own conscience, one by one,
• 39:15
  Speaker 6: beginning from the one who had lived longest on earth.
• 39:18
  Speaker 6: He had more stories, and he reminded him, mister man,
• 39:22
  Speaker 6: you've lived long.
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: In this earth.
• 39:26
  Speaker 6: Are you saying you've lived so long and you've not
• 39:28
  Speaker 6: become wise by reason of experience?
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: Rabbi? Are you that innocent?
• 39:35
  Speaker 6: And the Bible says, one by one that one statement
• 39:38
  Speaker 6: was a message reminding all of them of their desperate
• 39:43
  Speaker 6: need for messy.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: And the Bible says on the basis of that.
• 39:46
  Speaker 6: They left, and he said, woman, where are your accusers?
• 39:52
  Speaker 6: Where are they? One revelation drove them away. So one
• 39:57
  Speaker 6: of the ways to drive accusers is to remind them
• 40:02
  Speaker 6: that every time you point fingers at people, it lets
• 40:06
  Speaker 6: you know that based on the standpoint of man or
• 40:09
  Speaker 6: assisted by God, nobody has the moral credence. Nobody has
• 40:15
  Speaker 6: the moral credence to point an accusing finger against any woman.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: Where are dying accusers?
• 40:24
  Speaker 6: And he said, go see no more? And the woman left.
• 40:29
  Speaker 6: She left justified. He says, neither do I condemn you,
• 40:34
  Speaker 6: Go and see no more.
• 40:38
  Speaker 5: Allelujah.
• 40:41
  Speaker 6: Man at his best is still flowed based on God's standard,
• 40:44
  Speaker 6: this is an uncomfortable truth.
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: We must admit.
• 40:49
  Speaker 6: It says in sin did my mother conceive me? So
• 40:52
  Speaker 6: before acting out anything, the justice system of God already
• 40:56
  Speaker 6: declares that you are not qualified. You do not meet
• 41:00
  Speaker 6: that standard, because you see, the condition to carry the
• 41:04
  Speaker 6: righteousness of God, or the condition to carry the life
• 41:07
  Speaker 6: of God and the Holy Spirit, is that you must
• 41:10
  Speaker 6: have righteousness equal to that of Jesus, not like equal
• 41:14
  Speaker 6: to that of Jesus.
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: The Holy Spirit.
• 41:17
  Speaker 6: Only honors whoever carries the righteousness of Jesus and every
• 41:23
  Speaker 6: attempt by man to match up to that standard.
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: The Bible says that our.
• 41:27
  Speaker 6: Righteousness corporately is as filthy rags.
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: Are we together?
• 41:34
  Speaker 6: Yes, So the basis and the foundation for messy is compassion.
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: Compassion, compassion.
• 41:46
  Speaker 6: When you see what Jesus has done in your own life,
• 41:52
  Speaker 6: when you see the.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: Depth of his love.
• 41:55
  Speaker 6: The Bible says, what manner of love the Father has
• 41:58
  Speaker 6: bestowed upon us in that way be called the sons
• 42:02
  Speaker 6: of God. And the whole process that led to you
• 42:07
  Speaker 6: being the son of God, Jesus Christ hung upon the cross,
• 42:11
  Speaker 6: went through that nature.
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: When you remember it, he's.
• 42:15
  Speaker 6: Telling you that the guys who brought the woman who
• 42:19
  Speaker 6: was caught in adultery, there was something they forgot that
• 42:22
  Speaker 6: gave them the energy to drag that woman.
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: That if you remember, you will be very slow to anger.
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: You see that.
• 42:35
  Speaker 6: One of the ways that the spirit of anger walks
• 42:39
  Speaker 6: is that it traps away your thoughtfulness. It takes away
• 42:42
  Speaker 6: your ability to think, so that you just act without thinking.
• 42:46
  Speaker 6: Because the moment you can be thoughtful, somewhere in your life,
• 42:50
  Speaker 6: you will remember that from January last year to December,
• 42:56
  Speaker 6: how long did I experience the messy and the kindness
• 42:59
  Speaker 6: of God. And your answer will be every month, and
• 43:02
  Speaker 6: every day and every week.
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: Based on that. You see that.
• 43:11
  Speaker 6: When you pass a road and see a prayer, warriors
• 43:15
  Speaker 6: car inside a ditch, and you, who did not open
• 43:18
  Speaker 6: your Bible for one month, you pass safely and you go.
• 43:22
  Speaker 6: He reminds you by that experience that it is of
• 43:25
  Speaker 6: the Lord's messy that we are not consumed. When you
• 43:31
  Speaker 6: see all your believing neighbors struggling with COVID and crying,
• 43:36
  Speaker 6: and you, who was running around and breaking every rule
• 43:39
  Speaker 6: you know, both human governmental divine, and yet God kept you,
• 43:45
  Speaker 6: you will not credit that to your righteousness.
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: Very quickly you will know how to admit.
• 43:51
  Speaker 6: The key to understanding messy is to contrast God's love
• 43:56
  Speaker 6: and man's man's failure, man's inability to help himself. While
• 44:11
  Speaker 6: I was just seated at the rotune that they're just
• 44:13
  Speaker 6: listening to you sing, I heard you sing that song
• 44:16
  Speaker 6: I'm the one you have shown messy, and it really
• 44:19
  Speaker 6: touched my heart because I was praying. I said, Lord,
• 44:22
  Speaker 6: may they listen to what they're saying. You look beyond me.
• 44:31
  Speaker 6: That's what I want you to think about. You look
• 44:34
  Speaker 6: beyond me leave the other part of the song, you
• 44:37
  Speaker 6: know it. That was the basis that he looked beyond me?
• 44:48
  Speaker 6: So what did he look at? If you look beyond me?
• 44:52
  Speaker 6: What was beyond me that you looked at? That became
• 44:55
  Speaker 6: the basis of the messy, because if you looked at me,
• 45:00
  Speaker 6: all that you would see is that which is deserving
• 45:04
  Speaker 6: of condemnation and destruction. Very wise scripture based song beyond
• 45:12
  Speaker 6: me to who? Who did he look at that suddenly
• 45:20
  Speaker 6: made me not to become an object.
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: Of his wrath? What did he see? I'm interested in
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: what he saw?
• 45:28
  Speaker 6: What did he see that suddenly made a criminal not
• 45:32
  Speaker 6: to be a criminal?
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: Again?
• 45:33
  Speaker 6: What did he see that made someone who would have
• 45:37
  Speaker 6: worked in a course all the days of his life?
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: What did he see? He looked beyond me? Beyond me?
• 45:48
  Speaker 6: Please take it here for me, leave all the party,
• 45:51
  Speaker 6: you look past this and that whatever he looked at,
• 45:53
  Speaker 6: just my own, is that he looked beyond me. If
• 45:58
  Speaker 6: I'm paying attention to this, dear man of God seated
• 46:02
  Speaker 6: in front here, and I'm looking at you, and then
• 46:05
  Speaker 6: all of a sudden, I don't focus on you again.
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: You see me looking That means.
• 46:11
  Speaker 6: Something else has torn my attention, assuming I want to punish.
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: You, and suddenly I turn and I start laughing. What happened?
• 46:21
  Speaker 6: That means there is a conversation behind you that you're
• 46:24
  Speaker 6: not even aware of.
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: You look beyond me, he you look beyond me. Here,
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: I am no one. You have shown mass see, you
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: have shown me mans see us. Can I tell you
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: this honestly?
• 46:53
  Speaker 6: When you understand the mescy of God, sometimes you will
• 46:56
  Speaker 6: even be embarrassed sharing testimonies. It will take the grace
• 46:59
  Speaker 6: of God begin because you know that there is somewhere
• 47:02
  Speaker 6: that equation that you don't understand how the answer fully came.
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: There was a gap in that equation.
• 47:09
  Speaker 6: Yes I prayed, Yes I fasted, Yes I walked in
• 47:13
  Speaker 6: keeping with what the Bible says. But but, oh Peter,
• 47:20
  Speaker 6: there are times you can fish.
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: There are times you will go to the sea where
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: fish should be.
• 47:25
  Speaker 6: There are times your boat can be fine. There are
• 47:28
  Speaker 6: times your net is good. Yet you will not cut fish.
• 47:33
  Speaker 6: At that point. It was not your skill that went wrong.
• 47:36
  Speaker 6: You went to the sea like you should go. You
• 47:39
  Speaker 6: went with a boat like you should have. You went
• 47:41
  Speaker 6: with the nets that was functioning at that point.
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: You don't need skill.
• 47:45
  Speaker 6: Again, You need the one who can administer messy. Remember
• 47:49
  Speaker 6: my definition of messy. To take away that pain. He said,
• 47:54
  Speaker 6: cast your net to the right.
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: Side, and he caught fish.
• 47:58
  Speaker 6: And the moment Peter caught do you know what happened
• 48:01
  Speaker 6: to him when you look at the accounting John twenty one.
• 48:04
  Speaker 6: The moment he caught fish, he didn't call him a sinner.
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: Peter said, go away from me. I'm a sinner.
• 48:11
  Speaker 6: There was something about the administration of messy that brought conviction.
• 48:16
  Speaker 6: He didn't say, Peter, you're a sinner. No, cast your
• 48:22
  Speaker 6: ned to the right side. You've done your best. Let
• 48:25
  Speaker 6: me show you that I can look beyond you. When
• 48:32
  Speaker 6: people see what God is doing in and through my life.
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: Many times people ask me what is the secret?
• 48:39
  Speaker 6: And it's a very difficult question to answer, because when
• 48:42
  Speaker 6: I don't tell lies and two I I want to
• 48:48
  Speaker 6: tell the whole truth. But the truth is that there
• 48:54
  Speaker 6: are gaps in this thing. Asked is to keep walking
• 48:59
  Speaker 6: and keeping the truth that Scripture provides. But there is
• 49:02
  Speaker 6: an equation. There is a gap in the equation of
• 49:06
  Speaker 6: a man's destiny that only the size of God can feel.
• 49:13
  Speaker 6: One plus one, according to mathematics, should be two if
• 49:17
  Speaker 6: you're one plus one is zero. The thief is there
• 49:20
  Speaker 6: in that equation because he's.
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: The one who takes.
• 49:23
  Speaker 6: But if one plus one suddenly becomes one million, you
• 49:28
  Speaker 6: need to check. That means it's not only one plus
• 49:30
  Speaker 6: one that is there, one plus one plus Jesus. He
• 49:36
  Speaker 6: caals to whatever answer he puts there, listen to me.
• 49:44
  Speaker 6: Because we live in an arrogant world that prides in
• 49:48
  Speaker 6: beating your chest.
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: There is a healthy divide between confidence and arrogance.
• 49:54
  Speaker 6: We make our boast only in the Lord that we
• 49:57
  Speaker 6: are recipients of his messy.
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: But chances are excellent.
• 50:00
  Speaker 6: That when God begins to do great and mighty things
• 50:02
  Speaker 6: in and through our lives, when the spotlight is on you,
• 50:08
  Speaker 6: chances are excellent that you don't want to just go
• 50:11
  Speaker 6: out of that spotlight and allow Jesus to be glorified.
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: So it's easy.
• 50:15
  Speaker 6: We can't say I did this, I did that, But
• 50:19
  Speaker 6: there are those who know.
• 50:20
  Speaker 9: Ah, you look past my scene, my guilt, my shame,
• 50:25
  Speaker 9: and pour your love.
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: You look beyond me.
• 50:30
  Speaker 5: Here, you loop beyond me.
• 50:36
  Speaker 9: You look past my scene, my guilt, my shame, and
• 50:41
  Speaker 9: poured your love.
• 50:44
  Speaker 6: You loop behind me. The basis for genuine messy is compassion.
• 51:02
  Speaker 6: The real prayer is not to be merciful. The real
• 51:07
  Speaker 6: prayer is that the love of Jesus and his compassion
• 51:11
  Speaker 6: the fortitude to be touched with the feelings of people's infirmity.
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: When that happens to you, when you hear that.
• 51:20
  Speaker 6: Someone's house is on fire, you don't start asking questions
• 51:23
  Speaker 6: like who was careless there?
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: You run quickly.
• 51:27
  Speaker 6: Because you know that except the Lord watches over a city,
• 51:31
  Speaker 6: there can't be watchmen. But they will watch in vain.
• 51:33
  Speaker 6: The Bible says it is vain to wake up in
• 51:35
  Speaker 6: the morning and to sleep late in the night, only
• 51:38
  Speaker 6: to eat the bread of sorrow.
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: It is only God that gives his beloved sleep.
• 51:46
  Speaker 6: Have you seen families that were well cultured and disciplined,
• 51:50
  Speaker 6: took care of their children, prayed and faster every month,
• 51:53
  Speaker 6: Yet the children eventually became like.
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: Drug barons and am robbers.
• 51:58
  Speaker 6: You can't say they didn't give their The parents will
• 52:01
  Speaker 6: tell you I gave my children the training of a
• 52:05
  Speaker 6: man of God as children. And yet you see another
• 52:08
  Speaker 6: rough family somewhere where they only see at the end
• 52:13
  Speaker 6: of the day once is morning. Nobody knows where whoever is.
• 52:17
  Speaker 6: We only verify that by eleven thirty at least everyone
• 52:20
  Speaker 6: is back home, and in the midst of it, a scattered,
• 52:25
  Speaker 6: vision less, your vision.
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: Less young boy.
• 52:29
  Speaker 6: While he's moving around, he will meander into a church
• 52:32
  Speaker 6: one revival program somewhere and fire falls upon the head.
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: Of that small boy.
• 52:37
  Speaker 6: Ten years later, he now becomes a great man who
• 52:40
  Speaker 6: is going to help the family that seemed.
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: Well cultured and trained.
• 52:48
  Speaker 6: How about a sincere lady who keeps herself loving Jesus
• 52:52
  Speaker 6: and then is.
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: Raped by some criminals.
• 52:55
  Speaker 6: And then a bad girl who keeps going from left,
• 52:58
  Speaker 6: right and center, and at the end of it it
• 53:01
  Speaker 6: looks as if she's never done anything wrong. Brothers and sisters,
• 53:04
  Speaker 6: let me tell you this, The messy of God is
• 53:06
  Speaker 6: not a license for licentiousness. But I can tell you this,
• 53:10
  Speaker 6: when you look at your life and you are thoughtful
• 53:13
  Speaker 6: at the end of it, there is only one sentence
• 53:16
  Speaker 6: that will come out.
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: Of your mouth, Thank you Jesus.
• 53:20
  Speaker 6: I am truly a product of your messy.
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: There are people here.
• 53:27
  Speaker 6: You probably lost your job years, maybe two, three, four years,
• 53:32
  Speaker 6: and yet you've not had to beg. You were even
• 53:34
  Speaker 6: giving out some money to others who are working, and
• 53:38
  Speaker 6: you cannot really tell how quarter to shame that messy
• 53:41
  Speaker 6: comes again.
• 53:48
  Speaker 5: The messy of God is the fruit of his love.
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: Please do not forget this simple message.
• 53:56
  Speaker 6: This afternoon, I'm introducing for you the concept of messy
• 54:00
  Speaker 6: from a kingdom standpoint, that there are two dimensions to
• 54:05
  Speaker 6: the messy of God, his ability to forgive and to pardon,
• 54:10
  Speaker 6: and his ability to.
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: Take away pain and relief.
• 54:14
  Speaker 6: They are all administered by his messy, and that his
• 54:17
  Speaker 6: messy comes from his compassion. The messy that flows from
• 54:21
  Speaker 6: your life to others will also come from a standpoint
• 54:26
  Speaker 6: of compassion.
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: Compassion.
• 54:30
  Speaker 6: So when God instructs you to set up a charity
• 54:33
  Speaker 6: organization save, for instance, and help the poor and the needy,
• 54:37
  Speaker 6: ambition will not take you so far.
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: You will be tired one day. But if it.
• 54:40
  Speaker 6: Comes from compassion, you will remember it would have been me.
• 54:45
  Speaker 6: You will master your ability to put yourself in the
• 54:48
  Speaker 6: position of many people, and you will find out that
• 54:51
  Speaker 6: you will live a profoundly compassionate life administering the messy
• 54:56
  Speaker 6: of God.
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: Where then is a boasting, Where then.
• 55:03
  Speaker 6: Is our pride? Where then is the self glorification. We
• 55:11
  Speaker 6: are absolutely recipients of his messy, his grace, his compassion.
• 55:17
  Speaker 6: This is the revelation that I live with. Honestly speaking,
• 55:21
  Speaker 6: I'm not just saying this because I'm standing and I'm preaching.
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: It is it is, It is the construct of my understanding.
• 55:29
  Speaker 10: We're going to pray by his messy.
• 55:41
  Speaker 6: He's treated you beyond what he deserved by his messy.
• 55:49
  Speaker 6: He's shown forgiveness, he's withheld punishments by his messy, his
• 55:55
  Speaker 6: alleviated pain, stress. And as we'll be learning tomorrow, I'll
• 56:03
  Speaker 6: be teaching us the administration of God's messy. Because you see,
• 56:08
  Speaker 6: as free as God's messy is, sadly not everyone will
• 56:13
  Speaker 6: truly be a recipient of that messy. You will find
• 56:16
  Speaker 6: out that as free as the messy of God is,
• 56:19
  Speaker 6: there is a system of administration. The Bible says, let
• 56:23
  Speaker 6: us therefore come boldly before the throne of grace.
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: Listen carefully.
• 56:28
  Speaker 6: It says, we may obtain, obtain, means receive, and anything
• 56:34
  Speaker 6: that is given to you, there is a skill to
• 56:36
  Speaker 6: receiving it. If you do not know how to receive,
• 56:40
  Speaker 6: you cannot have, because the law is that you only
• 56:43
  Speaker 6: have what you receive. Mark eleven, twenty three and twenty four.
• 56:51
  Speaker 6: Jesus was teaching us how to receive. And then in
• 56:54
  Speaker 6: verse twenty four, it says, very veryly, I say unto
• 56:56
  Speaker 6: you twenty four. Now therefore I say onto you, He says,
• 57:00
  Speaker 6: what thinks soever.
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: Ye desire when ye pray, believe that.
• 57:04
  Speaker 6: Thou receivest them, and thou shalt have them. Receiving and
• 57:10
  Speaker 6: having at two different things. You only have what you
• 57:13
  Speaker 6: have received. If you have not received it, you cannot
• 57:17
  Speaker 6: have it. Receiving is spiritual. Having is the manifestation physically.
• 57:23
  Speaker 6: The Bible says, we should come boldly to obtain messy,
• 57:29
  Speaker 6: to obtain messy, to obtain messy.
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: Please rise upon your feet as we pray this afternoon.
• 57:40
  Speaker 6: Two prayer points very quickly, within the minute or two
• 57:44
  Speaker 6: that we have left.
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: The first prayer tonight is a prayer of thanksgiving.
• 57:50
  Speaker 6: Now your eyes have been open further to see that
• 57:53
  Speaker 6: I am a product of God's messy, genuinely and sincerely.
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: And it takes.
• 57:58
  Speaker 6: Thoughtfulness, thoughtfulness, thoughtfulness.
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: The hymn writer says, count your blessings.
• 58:06
  Speaker 6: He says, name them one by one, he says, and
• 58:08
  Speaker 6: it will surprise you. That means, if you are not surprised,
• 58:12
  Speaker 6: you should continue counting If you are counting and you
• 58:18
  Speaker 6: are not surprised, then it means you're doing it wrongly.
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: Keep counting. Can you lift your hands.
• 58:28
  Speaker 6: I give you one minute to just tell him, thank you,
• 58:32
  Speaker 6: thank you, thank you. Think of twenty twenty one and
• 58:38
  Speaker 6: tell him thank you for his messy. Don't act like
• 58:43
  Speaker 6: you did not go through twenty twenty one. Remember, remember
• 58:48
  Speaker 6: his faithfulness, Remember his love. Remember he displaced some of
• 58:53
  Speaker 6: you sadly following probably you were kidnapped by all kinds
• 58:58
  Speaker 6: of people, and.
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: Yet by his messy you were preserved. Some of you.
• 59:03
  Speaker 6: As hostile as last year seemed to be, it was
• 59:07
  Speaker 6: your most productive year. Remember He's messy beyond me, above
• 59:18
  Speaker 6: and beyond my efforts, above and beyond any display of
• 59:24
  Speaker 6: righteousness on my own part.
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: Are you praying? Tell him? Thank you are found too.
• 59:36
  Speaker 6: Him that incense of worship and thanksgiving. Lord, I remember
• 59:41
  Speaker 6: I am thoughtful, thoughtful enough to know that you have
• 59:44
  Speaker 6: kept me.
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: Mother. Pray and thank him for your children.
• 59:49
  Speaker 6: Father, Thank him for capacity to provide that in the
• 59:53
  Speaker 6: midst of the harsh economic climate, you were still upper faithfully.
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: So can you thank him for salvation?
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 5: Oh?
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: Yes, salvation readin by the blood of the.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 6: Lamb, blameless, justified by the blood of the Lamb, by
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 6: he who is rich in messy, from the abundance of
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 6: his messy.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: Look what He's done with our lives. Someone is saying, thank.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 5: You, Allelujah, allelujah.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 6: Now I like you to pray one prayer. You're going
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 6: to ask the Lord to burne into your spirit the
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 6: revelation of his messy, so that you will walk in
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 6: that consciousness.
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: The Bible says, blessed are the merciful.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 6: And remember that your activity, your action is a product
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 6: of your.
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: Convictions, your thoughts.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 6: If your mind is full of this revelation of messy,
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 6: naturally that is what will flow out of you. So
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 6: you're going to pray that God will grant you grace
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 6: for some of you who are quick to point at
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 6: using fingers, at people quick to love you, point at
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 6: your loved ones, point at family members, grant. Pray that
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 6: the Lord will grant you a change of heart, that
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 6: there will be a circumcision of heart to truly be merciful.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 6: That you will be the first to cry with those
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 6: who are weeping and tell them Jesus is able to help.
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 6: When you hear that someone has lost their child or someone.
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: Is in pain.
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 6: You remember it would have been me. Go ahead and pray.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 6: Grant me the grace by your spirit. Please pray one minute,
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 6: and I speak over you and your word.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: Don't prayer.
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 6: Salvation comes from his messy. Healing comes from his messy.
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 6: Restoration of years and things.
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 1: Come from his mercy. His provision comes from his mersy.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 6: Let me declare over your life that, in the name
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 6: of Jesus, the Son of the Living God, this year
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 6: twenty twenty two, I stand in agreement with your pastor
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 6: the Angel over this church, and I decree and declare
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 6: over your lives and over your destinies, this will be
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 6: a year that you will see a display of God's
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 6: messy in a way that will surprise you, in the name.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: Of Jesus Christ.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 6: And he shot me Joshua the high priest, who had
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 6: a fealthy gament, and Satan coming to accuse him. And
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 6: he turned and said, Satan, the Lord rebuke, Is this
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 6: not a reed that I've taken out a fire? Then
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 6: he removed that gament. I pray for someone here. Every
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 6: legal access the devil has to plague you, to buffet
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 6: your family. We come by the administration of the blood,
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 6: the symbol of God's messy. And we declare that that
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 6: legal hole is broken now, that legal hold keeping you
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 6: in pain, that legal hold recycling tragedies.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: In your life.
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 6: By the blood of the Eternal Covenant, we decree and
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 6: declare you are set free now.
