  Speaker 1: We're still on the perspective of eternity, Amen, trying to
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: think eternally. This one's called the Resurrected mindset. Resurrected mindset,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: living with a Christian perspective flips the script of what
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: you normally would have thought about life. Instead of fearing
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: death or living aimlessly without any kind of purpose, we
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: live with clarity, confidence, and compassion. Three seeds. Clarity, confidence,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: and compassion. We know who we are, why we're here,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: and where we're going. We're gonna be in Philippians, Chapter one,
• 1:27

• 2:48
  Speaker 1: of your word, to activate everything that you have applied,

• 2:56
  Speaker 1: our faith, activate our love, activate the mercy, activate the
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: grace that's within us and working through us. I pray
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Lord God, that we will not be harmed by any
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: other thing that tries to distract us, or the enemy,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: or any weapon that's formed. Thank you for your word,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: that no weapon that's formed against us shall prosper. I
• 3:17

• 3:20
  Speaker 1: watching and listening right now, over their minds, that families, physically,

• 3:39
  Speaker 1: knowing that you hear these prayers and you answer them
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: according to every single individual situation that we may be
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: facing today in life. In the powerful name of Jesus,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: I pray it's by faith, and those who.

• 6:26
  Speaker 1: And since I'm live, they're making.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: A decision quick. They're making a decision quick. And this
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: is not food, this is candy. And man, we get
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: this out from behind.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: Me and man this is the way they put some
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: candy out for our wife's organization during her meetings.

  Speaker 2: you're encouraging seeing so encouraging you like from now you

  Speaker 2: are just so.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: This is resurrected minds set to your word and the
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: word of God, says the Philippians one twenty.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: For to me, mind.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: To live is christ like He is my source of joy.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: My resume to mind who your word? We spoke about
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: that last word of God, the Philippians once a couple
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: of weeks back, that we have free to live. To me,
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: mainly God is my reason to live.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: He is my center to die joy my who your words?
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: And about that turns out of the Philippians one college
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Paul mind to me mainly Man God.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: He has a resurre mind, he has a new perspective.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: He is my center. It's joy. We're following in about.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: The examples the house following comics Paul by the lead
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: easily spirit mind following mainly the Lord God respective, it's
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: incredible following example, what's going to by the living reason Spirit.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: It's incredible to see all of what's going on when
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: we have this resurrected mindset.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: But the one I see you, good morning, my bro,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: good morning God bless you as well.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: It's good to see you on the morning.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Devo, my bro, my friends, So let's go for it.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: Life has eternal meeting, meaning Amen. And yet it's gonna
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: be a meeting too. We know that we're gonna meet
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Christ in the air according to the scriptures, when it
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: comes back for his church. So as a Christian, we
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: are learning. Christianity doesn't teach Holy Spirit. God teaches Amen.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: The spirit of God teaches that this life, it's not
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: all there is. This life is not all there is.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Thank you Jesus. Can you imagine that this was it?
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: Broken?
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: World, fallen, world, crime, death, disease, all kinds of rumors,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: of war fights, all that. Imagine this was all it was?
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Now we be it won't be too encouraging right to wake.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: Up and live. But this is not all there is.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: So instead of chasing temporary pleasures or temporary achievements, we
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: live with eternity in view because we have a resurrected
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: mindset Collagns.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: Three two. I'll cite the scripture.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: It says, set your minds on things above, not on
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: earthly things, because earthly things are temporary. Earthly things are
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: going to come and earthly things are.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: Going to go.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: But Jesus and his word remains forever eternally eternally. Every decision,
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: every relationship, every act of kind of has eternal value
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: because we are part of God's bigger plan. There's a
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: bigger plan for you, there's a bigger plan for me.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: So when I'm in a relationship, I'm trying to make
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: that relationship count. If I'm looking at things based on
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: what I'm seeing in a temporary then I'm not really
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: being mindful of the value of what I'm looking at,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: or the value of the relationship, the value.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: Of the decisions that I'm makings.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: Why a lot of people say what you decide now
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: determines your future. There's some truth to that, amen, But
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: the ultimate truth is found in the world of God,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: and what he says is how I roll and how
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: I move and how you should move too, Because think
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: about it, there's a bigger picture, there's a bigger plan.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: This is not just an idea.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: This is the truth, the gospel, truth of God's Word.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: Suffering and pain even has a purpose if you really
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: think about it. We know that life is full of trials.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Have you been through a trial lately?
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: I have? Right?
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: So Christians, christ followers children are God endure. Right.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: We don't give up.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: We endure, and we endure with hope because we know
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: that God is working through the struggle. He's not just like, okay,
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: Sam is struggling, want of struggling, since the joys of struggling,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: let me just having them figure it all out by themselves.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: That's not the way. It is not at all. God
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: is with us through the struggle, and he's teaching us something,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: and he's showing us something, and he's encouraging us all
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: through a man we read I think yesterday Romans eight
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: eighteen that I consider that our present sufferings are not
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: worth comparing right with the glory that will be.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: Revealed in us.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: People don't understand that the glory is in us and
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: we will be revealed through us and in us. So
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: what the world sees as meaningless like pain, why do
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: we go through pain? The world says that why would God,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: a good God, allow pain and suffering? Why would a
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: good God allow people to die? And why would good right,
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: you've heard that before, because they're not looking at it
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: through a resurrected mindset.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: They're looking at.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: It in a carnal and a temporal mindset. So remember,
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: the world system wants everything now, they want everything to
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: happen right now.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: They don't want to wait for nothing. Everything's microwave.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: Everything is hit a button and a search button, and
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: you want the answers right away instantly. Like when my
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: Internet wasn't working, it was like driving me nuts because
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: I'm like, how come this is not connecting? Because something
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: about staying connected to a source where you're trying to
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: communicate something very important.
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: Otherwise I would not be able to communicate.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: This message if I had not had a connection to
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: a source that allows this to go through. That's a
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: word right there. And I don't want to start preaching
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: right So what the world sees as meaningless pain, the
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: believer sees as an opportunity to grow, opportunity to have
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: a deeper dependence on God.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: So when I'm having issues or problems.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: Or is there when there's battles going on in my mind,
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: or if there's trials going through our lives, I look
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: at the bigger picture.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: I said, well, God, you allow this for a reason.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna just trust you, stand firm and believe that
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: you won't get me through this. Sometimes I ask God
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: to make it go away, right, the trial, the sickness,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: the problems, and sometimes God will actually make it go away,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: But most often, at least in my experience and my
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: relationship with the Lord Amen, he allows it to happen
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: so I could get through it and know on the
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: other side that.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: He was with me all along. God has a bigger plan.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: So life is an opportunity to glorify God. When you
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: have a resurrected mindset, you know that life is going
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: to lift us up to a high dimension. When we
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: have the life of Christ in us, we don't rely
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: on the things of this world.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: Haven't you noticed? Man, I've been on both sides of
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: the corn.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: I was in the world until I was thirty years old,
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: so I know what I'm talking about. This world is
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: a bunch of promises that are false. Oh, get with this,
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: do that right, And then when you do all that
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: the world offered, you.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: Find yourself more empty.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: You find yourself unsatisfied, You find yourself in a worse
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: position than when you first started. Life is an opportunity
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: to glorify God. Believers children of God no longer live
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: for ourselves, but we live for Christ. Remember the apostle
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Paul said what he said in the scripture that we
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: read to live is Christ to Die's gain. It's a
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: lot in there. That's why you should read the whole.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: Chapter so you could get the meaning behind that.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: Why would as Paul say that, Why would he say
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: to live is Christ to die is gained? What would
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: you think the Postle Paul is gaining?
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: Amen?
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: Sorry, I'm looking down Philippians chapter one, verse number twenty one.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: But read the whole chapter for yourself. Right.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Paul also said in two Corinthians five fifteen, and he
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: died for all, that those who live should no longer
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: live for themselves but for him Jesus, who died for
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: them and was raised again.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: Who's them? Them is the.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: People in his time, the people before his time, people
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: after his time on earth A man and all people
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: whosoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: So this shift shifts everything. It shifts our mindset. We're
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: not here just to survive, We're not just here to succeed.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: We're here to reflect Jesus in all that we do.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: So people say, oh, but I'm not perfect, I'm going
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: to mess up, You're going to mess up.
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: I'm going to mess up. But the Lord never messes up.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: Holy Spirit never messes up, so we rely on him
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: and what he can do. It's a big possibility that
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: we could really be perfected with what God has given
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: us in the little time that we have here on earth.
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: Because I think this is the time that we need
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: to really be moving in faith this side of eternity,
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: because on the other side we're going to have the
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: promise of what God promised, But on this side we
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: need to share the promises of God so that other
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: people will get in on this.
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: We want to occupy Heaven and we want to vacate
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: Hell and Man.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: We don't want people going to a place separated from
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: God for all eternity. Want to We want people to
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: come into the Kingdom of God. So how would they
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: How would they know about the Kingdom If we don't
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: talk about the kingdom, How would they know that there's
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: a way to get into the Kingdom if we don't
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: invite them to meet the King of Kings and the
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: Lord of lords. Think about it, we can't be selfish
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: with what we know, So it's an opportunity to glorify God.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: Death becomes gain, not lost for a believer. We read
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: it Apostle Paul said to live as Christ, and to
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: die is gain the way He thought and the way
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: we should be thinking. This type of RESURRECTI mindset creates
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: incredible freedom. Actually, it eliminates fear because we know where
