>> HELLO. WE
WELCOME YOU BACK TO THE
00:00:12.47\00:00:13.54
SECOND HOUR OF 3ABN TODAY LIVE.
00:00:13.54\00:00:14.58
AND WE ARE TALKING
TONIGHT ABOUT SPIRITUAL WARFARE.
00:00:14.58\00:00:19.35
OUR FIRST HOUR WAS A
LITTLE RELAXED, AS WE GOT SOME
00:00:19.35\00:00:23.62
HISTORY. PUT YOUR
SPIRITUAL TRACK SHOES
00:00:23.62\00:00:25.89
ON BECAUSE WE ARE
GOING TO SPEED THINGS UP NOW.
00:00:25.89\00:00:28.62
LET ME
REINTRODUCE OUR SPECIAL GUEST.
00:00:28.62\00:00:31.36
WE HAVE ALEX NICULAESCU
WITH US AND ALSO LEVI LONGORIA.
00:00:31.36\00:00:34.20
THEY ARE BOTH WITH
CRYING AT THE GATES MINISTRY.
00:00:34.20\00:00:38.23
AND THAT IS A MINISTRY
OF INTERCESSORY PRAYER.
00:00:38.23\00:00:43.10
MOST SPECIFICALLY YOU
ARE FOCUSING ON RESCUING --
00:00:43.10\00:00:47.81
FOLLOWING GOD'S PLAN TO RESCUE
PEOPLE FROM SEX TRAFFICKING.
00:00:47.81\00:00:52.81
>> UH-HUH. >> OKAY.
00:00:52.81\00:00:53.75
NOW, WE TALKED ABOUT
YOUR WONDERFUL CHART, ABOUT
00:00:53.75\00:00:58.62
SPIRITUAL WARFARE, THE TWO
SPIRITUAL BEINGS, HOW WE ARE
00:00:58.62\00:01:02.09
TRAPPED IN THE MIDDLE.
THAT WOULD BE THE DEVIL AND
00:01:02.09\00:01:04.66
CHRIST. WHAT WE
ARE GOING TO TURN OUR
00:01:04.66\00:01:06.46
ATTENTION TO NOW IS A
LITTLE BIT DEEPER THAN THAT.
00:01:06.46\00:01:11.00
I'LL THROW IT TO YOU, LEVI.
>> YEAH, WHAT WE WANT TO DO IS
00:01:11.00\00:01:16.20
MOVE FROM THE TRAFFICKING
ASPECT, THINGS WE WERE TALKING
00:01:16.20\00:01:19.94
ABOUT LAST HOUR, INTO
MORE OF THE ANSWER TO THAT.
00:01:19.94\00:01:24.28
MORE OF THE SPIRITUAL ASPECT AND
WHAT WE CAN DO AND
THOSE-WATCHING CAN DO TO
00:01:24.28\00:01:29.85
PARTICIPATE IN THE SPIRITUAL
BATTLE. WHETHER IT'S TRAFFICKING
00:01:29.85\00:01:35.36
OR ANY OTHER THING
THAT THE ENEMY USES AGAINST.
00:01:35.36\00:01:38.03
>> COULD I CORRECT YOU.
YOU SAID TO PARTICIPATE.
00:01:38.03\00:01:41.26
WE ARE ALL IN A
SPIRITUAL BATTLE.
00:01:41.26\00:01:44.00
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT TO BE
VICTORIOUS TO LEARN TO FIGHT
00:01:44.00\00:01:47.54
THROUGH CHRIST. >>
PARTICIPATE EFFECTIVELY IS
00:01:47.54\00:01:49.50
A BETTER WAY TO SAY THAT.
I'LL JUST START IN 2 TIMOTHY.
00:01:49.50\00:01:55.84
WE'LL BE GOING THROUGH A LOT
OF SPIPTURE AND WE'LL GO QUICK
00:01:55.84\00:01:58.88
BECAUSE WE HAVE A LOT TO COVER.
00:01:58.88\00:02:03.79
2 TIMOTHY 2:00-4. IT
SAYS, NO ONE ENGAGES IN
00:02:03.79\00:02:14.30
WARFARE -- WHO ENGAGE IN WAR
FAR ENTANGLES HIMSELF WITH THE
00:02:14.30\00:02:18.27
AFFAIRS OF THIS LIFE THAT
IT MAY PLEASE HIM WHO ENLISTED
00:02:18.27\00:02:24.81
HIMSELF AS A SOLDIER.
FIRST OF ALL, WE WANT TO POINT
00:02:24.81\00:02:29.58
OUT THAT ANYONE WHO COMES
INTO THE FAMILY OF CHRIST, WHO
00:02:29.58\00:02:33.78
BECOMES A PART OF HIS KINGDOM,
HE IS ENLISTED AS A SOLDIER.
00:02:33.78\00:02:40.56
AS A SOLDIER FOR
CHRIST. WE UNDERSTAND THAT.
00:02:40.56\00:02:44.76
BUT IF WE WERE REALLY ALL
SOLDIER -- IF YOU WERE IN THE
00:02:44.76\00:02:49.46
ARMY, PHYSICAL ARMY, YOU
WOULD HAVE TO KNOW WHAT DOES A
00:02:49.46\00:02:52.33
SOLDIER DO AND HOW DO THEY
FIGHT AND WHAT ARE THE TOOLS
00:02:52.33\00:02:55.64
AND WEAPONS AND
WHAT DO WE NEED TO KNOW.
00:02:55.64\00:02:58.64
SOMETIMES WE
DON'T THINK ABOUT THAT.
00:02:58.64\00:03:00.54
IT SAYS WE ARE ENLISTED AS
SOLDIERS IN CHRIST'S ARMY IN
00:03:00.54\00:03:05.31
HIS KING SELDOM. SOME
OF THE WAYS WE DO THAT
00:03:05.31\00:03:11.32
WE'LL SHARE TODAY.
BASICALLY THESE ARE -- THE WAY
00:03:11.32\00:03:14.36
THAT WE APPROACH THIS TOPIC
IS-BASICALLY GOD, HOW HE TAUGHT
US, IS THROUGH USING PHYSICAL
00:03:14.36\00:03:26.63
REPRESENTATIONS TO ILLUSTRATE
SPIRITUAL THINGS, SPIRITUAL
00:03:26.63\00:03:30.11
PRINCIPALS, OKAY.
THAT WAY YOU CAN PUT
00:03:30.11\00:03:33.48
EVERYTHING INTO A PICTURE,
SO TO SPEAK, INTO A CONTEXT.
00:03:33.48\00:03:42.62
I WANT TO TELL AN ILLUSTRATION.
00:03:42.62\00:03:44.32
WHEN I WAS A KID, I
USED TO MAKE WOODEN SWORDS.
00:03:44.32\00:03:49.02
WE LIVED OUT IN THE COUNTRY.
I WOULD MAKE WOODEN SWORDS.
00:03:49.02\00:03:52.86
MY FRIEND WOULD COME OVER AND
WE WOULD MAKE SWORDS WITH DUCT
00:03:52.86\00:03:56.46
TAPE. MY DAD HAD A SHOP.
00:03:56.46\00:03:58.83
WE WOULD GO OUT AND FIGHT
THE NEIGHBORS' CORN FIELD.
00:03:58.83\00:04:04.41
I FEEL BAD NOW. I
REALIZE HOW MUCH CORN I
00:04:04.41\00:04:07.18
PROBABLY CUT DOWN
IN MY NEIGHBOR'S FIELD.
00:04:07.18\00:04:09.91
WE WOULD GO AND DO THAT,
WE HAD SHIELDS AND SWORDS AND
00:04:09.91\00:04:14.08
BOWS AND ALL OF THOSE THINGS.
DRAGONS, YOU KNOW, THE THINGS
00:04:14.08\00:04:17.05
YOU THINK ABOUT
WHEN YOU ARE A KID.
00:04:17.05\00:04:19.29
I REALLY DIDN'T REALIZE UNTIL
MAYBE THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS
00:04:19.29\00:04:25.73
HOW PARTICLE ALL OF
THOSE THINGS ARE TO THINGS IN
00:04:25.73\00:04:29.93
SCRIPTURE THERE IS A
REAL-DRAGON, AN ENEMY AND
SHIELDS AND ARMOR AND ALL OF
00:04:29.93\00:04:38.21
THOSE THINGS ARE SYMBOLS THAT
THE BIBLE USES THAT REPRSENT
00:04:38.21\00:04:41.94
VERY REAL THINGS IN THE
SPIRITUAL WORLD AND SPIRITUAL
00:04:41.94\00:04:45.71
STRUGGLE WE ARE IN. SO
THOSE ARE SOME OF THE WAYS
00:04:45.71\00:04:49.08
THAT WE KIND OF HAVE GONE
ABOUT LEARNING THIS TOPIC IS
00:04:49.08\00:04:54.56
KIND OF ATTACHING THE
SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OR
00:04:54.56\00:05:01.43
ATTACHING A PRINCIPLE TO THE
THINGS UP WOULD USE IN A REAL
00:05:01.43\00:05:04.73
BATTLE. LET'S JUST
LOOK AT A COUPLE OF
00:05:04.73\00:05:07.50
OTHER TEXTS REALLY
QUICK. I WILL GO TO EPHESIANS.
00:05:07.50\00:05:11.47
OF COURSE, THIS IS ONE THAT
WE ARE PROBABLY ALL FAMILIAR
00:05:11.47\00:05:15.54
WITH. EPHESIANS 6.
00:05:15.54\00:05:19.61
>> SOMETHING THAT WE
ARE FAMILIAR WITH AS FAR AS
00:05:19.61\00:05:21.42
HEARING IT BUT I
HOPE EMPLOYING IT --
00:05:21.42\00:05:26.52
>> THAT'S THE BOWL US.
EPHESIANS 6 VERSE 11 AND 12.
00:05:26.52\00:05:38.27
THAT SAYS PUT ON THE WHOLE
ARMOR OF GOD THAT YOU MAY BE
00:05:38.27\00:05:42.64
ABLE TO STAND AGAINST THE
WILES OF THE DEVIL SO WE DO IN
00:05:42.64\00:05:47.48
NOT WRESTLE AGAINST FLESH
AND BLOOD BUT PRINCIPALITIES AND
00:05:47.48\00:05:52.05
THE RIEWRLZ OF DARKNESS,
AGAINST SPIRITUAL HOSTS OF
00:05:52.05\00:05:55.92
WICKEDNESS AND HELPLY PLACES.
WE'LL COME BACK TO THIS VERSE
00:05:55.92\00:05:59.42
A LITTLE BIT LATER. I
WANT TO POINT OUT IN THIS
00:05:59.42\00:06:06.09
PACKAGE -- IN THIS PASSAGE
IT TELLS US THERE IS SPIRITUAL
00:06:06.09\00:06:13.00
ARMOR. THERE ARE
WAYS TO UNDERSTAND
00:06:13.00\00:06:17.01
TO BE PROTECTED
AGAINST THE ENEMY.
00:06:17.01\00:06:24.28
IT SAYS, THAT THE WEAPONS OF
OUR WARFARE ARE NOT CARNAL BUT
00:06:24.28\00:06:31.35
MIGHTY IN GOD IN
PULLING DOWN STRONGHOLDS.
00:06:31.35\00:06:34.59
SO ON AND SO FORTH.
IN SCRIPTURE THERE IS
00:06:34.59\00:06:39.79
SPIRITUAL ARMOR, SPIRITUAL
WEAPONS, SPIRITUAL BATTLE,
00:06:39.79\00:06:44.77
DRAGONS. SATAN IS
CALLED THE DRAGON OR
00:06:44.77\00:06:47.87
THE SERPENT. >>
COULD I ELABORATE ON SECOND
00:06:47.87\00:06:53.81
CORINTHIANS. IT'S
CLEARER IN THE CONTEST IN
00:06:53.81\00:06:57.31
TAKING EVERY THOUGHT CAPTIVE
TO BE OBEDIENT TO THE WILL OF
00:06:57.31\00:07:02.22
THE LORD. THE
BATTLE IS IN OUR MIND.
00:07:02.22\00:07:04.65
WE ARE ALL, WE DON'T RECOGNIZE
IT ALWAYS, BUT WE ARE ALL
00:07:04.65\00:07:08.32
INVOLVED IN A SPIRITUAL BATTLE.
00:07:08.32\00:07:11.16
WE CAN'T HELP TO BE. WE
ARE EITHER ON ONE SIDE --
00:07:11.16\00:07:15.13
>> AUTOMATICALLY INVOLVED.
>> IF YOU ARE ALIVE, IF YOU
00:07:15.13\00:07:17.63
ARE BREATHING. >>
WHAT I WANT TO DO, JUST TO
00:07:17.63\00:07:22.17
MOVE INTO THAT. FROM
THE TOPIC THAT WE WERE
00:07:22.17\00:07:26.17
ON. FIRST OF ALL, I JUST WANT TO
00:07:26.17\00:07:29.31
CONNECT THAT WITH THE IDEA OF
SPIRITUAL BATTLE AND SPIRITUAL
00:07:29.31\00:07:34.78
WARFARE THIS IS SORT OF A
DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE ON SOME
00:07:34.78\00:07:39.02
VERSES WE ALL KNOW, AT
LEAST THOSE WHO HAVE STUDIED AND
00:07:39.02\00:07:47.00
DANIEL, WE USUALLY STUDY SOME
OF THESE VERSES WE WILL SHARE
00:07:47.00\00:07:51.07
FROM A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE.
I'LL START IN REVELATION,
00:07:51.07\00:07:55.77
CHAPTER 17. IN
REVELATIONS 17, THERE IS A
00:07:55.77\00:08:04.75
POWER REPRESENTED THAT
IS REPRESENTED A COUPLE OF
00:08:04.75\00:08:07.48
DIFFERENT PLACES IN THE
BOOK OF REVELATION IN DIFFERENT
00:08:07.48\00:08:11.42
WAYS WITH DIFFERENT SYMBOLISM.
THE WAY THAT IT'S REPRESENTED
00:08:11.42\00:08:14.66
IN REVELATION 17 IS AS
THE HARLOT AND HER DAUGHTERS,
00:08:14.66\00:08:20.10
ANOTHER HARLOT.
LET'S READ VERSE 4 AND 5.
00:08:20.10\00:08:27.54
IT SAYS, THE WOMAN WAS IN
PURPLE AND SCARLET AND ADORND
00:08:27.54\00:08:35.54
WITH PRECIOUS STONES HAVING
IN HER HAND A GOLDEN CUP FULL OF
00:08:35.54\00:08:40.28
ADOMINATIONS AND FILTHNESS
OF HER FORNICATION AND ON HER
00:08:40.28\00:08:44.12
FOREHEAD A NAME WAS WRITTEN,
THE MOTHER OF HARLOT AND THE
00:08:44.12\00:08:50.36
ADOMINATIONS OF
THE EARTH. ALL RIGHT?
00:08:50.36\00:08:53.16
THE SYMBOLISM IN REVELATION
17 IS OF THE ENEMY OF GOD AT THE
00:08:53.16\00:08:59.67
END OF TIME AND OF HIS PEOPLE.
SYMBOLIZED AS A HARLOT AND
THE-NAME TO THAT HOR LOT IS THE
00:08:59.67\00:09:10.98
MOTHER HARLOT BABYLON.
WE UNDERSTAND FROM THE STUDY
00:09:10.98\00:09:16.58
OF PROPHECY THT IN A SPECIFIC
SENSE REPRESENTS THE FALLEN
00:09:16.58\00:09:23.93
CHURCHES, THAT SYSTEM,
THE MOTHER AND HER DAUGHTERS,
00:09:23.93\00:09:26.96
RIGHT? >> RIGHT.
00:09:26.96\00:09:28.80
BUT I WANT TO BROADEN THAT A
LITTLE BIT IN THE WAY THAT WE
00:09:28.80\00:09:32.37
WILL APPROACH IT TODAY.
THAT SYSTEM INCLUDES -- WE
00:09:32.37\00:09:38.54
WILL SEE IT LATER IN CHAPTER 18.
00:09:38.54\00:09:41.38
IT INCLUDES A WHOLE LOT OF
OTHER THINGS THAT ARE A PART
00:09:41.38\00:09:44.98
OF THAT.
BASICALLY ANYTHING THAT IS
00:09:44.98\00:09:47.68
AGAINST GOD, CHRIST AND
HIS WORK AT THE END OF TIME IS
00:09:47.68\00:09:50.82
PART OF THAT HARLOT
SYSTEM, THAT BABYLONIAN SYSTEM.
00:09:50.82\00:09:55.46
I WANT TO GO REALLY QUICK,
ALSO, TO REVELATION 13, WHICH
00:09:55.46\00:10:02.03
IS ANOTHER CHAPTER IT TALK
ABOUT THE SAME POWER, BUT WITH
00:10:02.03\00:10:05.97
DIFFERENT SYMBOLISM
IN CHAPTER 13, OKAY?
00:10:05.97\00:10:11.71
AGAIN, WE ARE JUST BASICALLY
GOING THROUGH JUST QUICKLY.
00:10:11.71\00:10:16.14
I'M TRYING TO HIT IT QUICK,
TO GIVE A CONTEXT FOR WHAT WE'LL
00:10:16.14\00:10:20.35
BE TALKING ABOUT.
CHAPTER 13, THE VERSE IS 1 AND
00:10:20.35\00:10:27.39
2. IT SAYS, THEN I STOOD ON THE
00:10:27.39\00:10:30.23
SAND OF THE SEA AND I SAW A
BEAST RISING UP OUT OF THE SEA
00:10:30.23\00:10:36.77
HAVING SEVEN HEADS AND
TEN HORNS AND TEN CROWNS AND A
00:10:36.77\00:10:42.04
BLOSSOMS NAME. BY
THE WAY, IF YOU STUDY THE
00:10:42.04\00:10:46.44
SYMBOLISM WHAT IT IS
REPRESENTING HERE, THIS BEAST
00:10:46.44\00:10:49.18
COMING OUT OF THE SEA
IS THE HARLOT FROM 17.
00:10:49.18\00:10:54.78
THE HARLOT. VERSE 2,
NOW THE BEAST WHICH I
00:10:54.78\00:10:56.95
SAW WAS LIKE A LEPP AR, HIS
FEET WERE LIKE THE FEET OF A
00:10:56.95\00:11:01.16
BEAR AND THE MOUTH OF A LYON.
THE DRAGON GAVE HIS POWER AND
00:11:01.16\00:11:07.73
THRONE AND GREAT AUTHORITY.
WHO GAVE HIM THE AUTHORITY?
00:11:07.73\00:11:11.07
THE DRAGON IN THE
DRAGON REVELATION VERSE 9.
00:11:11.07\00:11:19.24
REVELATION 12, VERSE 9 SAYS
SO THE GREAT DRAGON, HE WAS CAST
00:11:19.24\00:11:28.32
OUT, THAT SERPENT OF OLD
CALLED THE DEVIL AND SATAN.
00:11:28.32\00:11:32.62
HE IS CAST TO THE EARTH AND
HIS ANGELS WERE CAST OUT WITH
00:11:32.62\00:11:36.32
HIM. >> SO THERE
IS NO QUESTION WHO
00:11:36.32\00:11:38.33
THIS DRAGON IS. >> NO QUESTION.
00:11:38.33\00:11:41.16
THE DEVIL IS THE DRAGON.
THE DRAGON GAVE THIS POWER,
00:11:41.16\00:11:45.40
ITS AUTHORITY. HE IS BEHIND THE
POWER OF THE-BEAST HERE OR THE
00:11:45.40\00:11:52.44
HARLOT, THE BABYLON SYSTEM.
IT IS THE ENEMY, SATAN WHO IS
00:11:52.44\00:11:57.25
BEHIND THE SYSTEM AT THE
END THAT IS BABYLON, SPIRITUAL
00:11:57.25\00:12:02.55
BABYLON.-úSO THE REASON I POINT
THAT OUT IS KIND OF TO TIE IT IN
00:12:02.55\00:12:07.42
WITH WHAT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT.
LET'S GO TO EZEKIAL 28 REALLY
00:12:07.42\00:12:13.93
QUICK. WE JUST WANT TO POINT OUT
00:12:13.93\00:12:18.57
SOMETHING INTERESTING
ABOUT THAT POWER THAT IS BEHIND
00:12:18.57\00:12:23.61
SPIRITUAL BABYLON. >> OKAY.
00:12:23.61\00:12:28.81
>> EZEKEIAL CHAPTER 28 IT'S
IN HERE SEVERAL PLACES, WE CAN
00:12:28.81\00:12:39.89
LOOK AT 18.
EZEKIEL 28, FOR THOSE WHO
00:12:39.89\00:12:44.29
HAVEN'T STUDIED THIS CHAPTER,
BASICALLY STARTING FROM VERSE
00:12:44.29\00:12:48.93
14, IT IS USING THE KING AS
A SYMBOLIC REPRESENTATION OF
00:12:48.93\00:12:58.01
SAINT OR LUCIFER.
THAT IS JUST FOR THOSE WHO
00:12:58.01\00:13:00.88
DON'T KNOW, THAT IS THE
CONTEXT OF THIS PASSAGE WE'LL
00:13:00.88\00:13:05.95
READ. VERSE 18
SAYS, YOU, SPEAKING
00:13:05.95\00:13:10.49
ABOUT LUCIFER, YOU
DEFILED YOUR SANCTUARY BY THE
00:13:10.49\00:13:15.09
MULTITUDE OF YOUR
INEQUITY BY THE INEQUITY OF YOUR
00:13:15.09\00:13:19.79
TRAFFICKING.
THEREFORE, I BROUGHT FIRE AND
00:13:19.79\00:13:23.37
DEVOURED YOU AND TURNED
TO ASHES UPON THE EARTH.
00:13:23.37\00:13:27.44
REMEMBER, THIS POWER, SATAN
OR LUCIFER SENIOR ONE BEHIND
00:13:27.44\00:13:32.97
SPIRITUAL BABYLON AT THE END.
THIS VERSE TELLS US THAT HE IS
00:13:32.97\00:13:37.28
A TRAFFICKER. RIGHT?
00:13:37.28\00:13:39.55
JUST A QUICK NOTE, SOMETHING
I FOUND A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO
00:13:39.55\00:13:44.29
THAT I THOUGHT WAS
INTERESTING, THAT WORD -- WE
00:13:44.29\00:13:46.82
DON'T HAVE TO GO TO THE TEXT.
THAT WORD, WHEN IT SAYS YOU
00:13:46.82\00:13:53.03
DEFILED YOUR SANCTUARY, THE
WORD DEFILED, THE NAME WORD IS
00:13:53.03\00:13:59.63
IN LEE VET CUSS 19-29, WHEN
IT SAYS YOU PROSTITUTED YOUR
00:13:59.63\00:14:06.91
DAUGHTERS. >>
THAT IS INTERESTING.
00:14:06.91\00:14:11.11
>> THE CONTEXT IS OF PARENTS
WHO HAVE SOLD THEIR CHILDREN
00:14:11.11\00:14:13.82
IN PROSTITUTION. YOU
COULD READ THAT AS YOU
00:14:13.82\00:14:20.76
HAVE PROSTITUTED YOUR SANK WEARS
BY THE MULTITUDE OF YOUR -- SO
00:14:20.76\00:14:30.30
ON. IT IS CONNECTION TO LEAD
INTO THE SPIRITUAL ASPECT OF IT.
00:14:30.30\00:14:40.38
THE POWER OF THE ENEMY SATAN
AND HE IS THE ULTIMATE, THE
00:14:40.38\00:14:44.11
HEAD TRAFFICKER, THE HEAD
PIMP, YOU MIGHT SAY, OF ALL OF
00:14:44.11\00:14:49.55
IT. DOESN'T HAVE TO DO WITH
00:14:49.55\00:14:51.72
TRAFFICKING AND SEX TRAFFICKING.
00:14:51.72\00:14:55.66
HE TRAFFIC A
LOT OF OTHER THINGS.
00:14:55.66\00:14:57.89
ANYTHING THAT HE PUTS OUT
THERE TO BUY US FROM GOD, SO
00:14:57.89\00:15:05.43
TO SPEAK.
ANYTHING WE WILL ACCEPT TO
00:15:05.43\00:15:08.94
TAKE US AWAY FROM OUR RIGHTFUL
OWNER AND HE BECOMES OUR
00:15:08.94\00:15:16.24
SLAVEMASTER. THIS
IS A CONTEXT OF WHAT
00:15:16.24\00:15:18.25
WE'LL BE TALKING ABOUT,
THE WAY THAT WE FIGHT IN THIS
00:15:18.25\00:15:24.19
BATTLE, NUMBER ONE, IS
THROUGH INTERCESSORY PRAYER.
00:15:24.19\00:15:28.56
SO THAT'S WHAT WE
WANT TO GO INTO NOW.
00:15:28.56\00:15:31.16
ALEX, I THINK, IS GOING TO
SHARE KIND OF A BASIC LOOK AT
00:15:31.16\00:15:36.26
SOME OF THE WEAPONS THAT
WE USE IN THAT BATTLE, OKAY?
00:15:36.26\00:15:40.90
>> OKAY. ALEX.
00:15:40.90\00:15:43.24
>> SO, IN WARFARE YOU
OBVIOUSLY HAVE THREE UNITS.
00:15:43.24\00:15:47.61
LET'S PICK OUT THE MOST BASIC
UNIT ANYBODY WOULD RECOGNIZE.
00:15:47.61\00:15:51.38
UP HAVE THE SWORTSMAN.
IF WE ARE GOING TO ATTACK A
00:15:51.38\00:15:59.59
WAR THIS TERRITORIER, ARE
YOU GOING TO TAKE SWORDS MAN UP
00:15:59.59\00:16:03.76
AGAINST A WALL?
THAT'S A BAD IDEA.
00:16:03.76\00:16:06.33
HE WILL GET SHOT BY
WHOEVER IS ON TOP OF THE WALL.
00:16:06.33\00:16:11.13
ALSO, IN DIFFERENT CONTEXT.
YOU HAVE A SWORDS MAN AND YOU
00:16:11.13\00:16:15.20
ARE TRYING TO ATTACK THE
FRONT LINE OF ENEMY TROOPS.
00:16:15.20\00:16:18.47
DO YOU RUSH ALL OF YOUR SPORTS
MAN INTO ENEMY TROOPS JUST
00:16:18.47\00:16:23.68
STRAIGHT OUT. >>
NOT IF YOU ARE A SMART
00:16:23.68\00:16:26.88
GENERAL. >> EXACT
LIAN ARCHERS AGAINST
00:16:26.88\00:16:28.68
A WALL?
AFTERNOONERS CAN'T PENETRATE
00:16:28.68\00:16:32.85
WALLS. THE
ARROWS, THEY ARE GOOD FOR
00:16:32.85\00:16:35.22
LONG DISTANCE. WILL
YOU TAKE THEM AGAINST THE
00:16:35.22\00:16:37.69
LINE THAT YOU WANT YOUR
SWORSDS MAN TO RUN INTO BUT
00:16:37.69\00:16:42.73
NOT AGAINST THE WALL.
THEN WE HAVE SEGE WEAPONS.
00:16:42.73\00:16:45.90
THAT'S WHAT YOU
TAKE AGAINST THE WALL.
00:16:45.90\00:16:48.27
EVERY UNIT HAS ITS PLACE.
SWORDS MEN ARE GOOD AT CLOSE
00:16:48.27\00:16:52.51
WARFARE. BEFORE
YOU RUN YOUR CLOSE
00:16:52.51\00:16:56.18
COMBAT SOLDIERS INTO THE FRONT
LINES, YOU USE ARCHERS FIRST.
00:16:56.18\00:16:59.91
ARCHERS WILL SHOOT THE ARROWS
THAT WILL DECIMATE THE FRONT
00:16:59.91\00:17:03.82
LINES, GAPS ARE MADE, BREACHES
ARE MADE WHERE YOUR SWORDSMEN
00:17:03.82\00:17:08.89
CAN BEGIN TO PUSH
BACK THE DEFENSIVE LINE.
00:17:08.89\00:17:15.66
YOUR SEIGE WEAPONS BACK
CAT PUTS, TREB CHER, BASICALLY
00:17:15.66\00:17:24.77
LIKE A CATAPULT ON STEROIDS.
IT'S A HUGE LONG DISTANCE
00:17:24.77\00:17:30.41
CATAPULT. IT IS VERY SLOW.
00:17:30.41\00:17:32.31
BUT IF YOU WANT TO BRING DOWN
A WALL, THAT'S WHAT YOU USE SO
00:17:32.31\00:17:35.62
YOU CAN BE OUT OF
RANGE OF ENEMY FIRE.
00:17:35.62\00:17:41.06
WE OFTEN ARE
USING SWORDS MEN ALONE.
00:17:41.06\00:17:45.83
USING PEOPLE DOING
FACE-TO-FACE, WHETHER IT'S
00:17:45.83\00:17:49.80
EVANGELISM, MEDICAL
EVANGELISM, SPEAKING
00:17:49.80\00:17:53.60
EVANGELISM. WHETHER
IT'S LITERATURE AVENGE
00:17:53.60\00:17:56.47
LOISM. YOU NEED
THE SWORDS MEN, BUT
00:17:56.47\00:17:59.14
YOU DON'T RUN A
SWORDS MAN INTO A WALL.
00:17:59.14\00:18:03.41
>> WHY ARE YOU
MAKING THE REFERENCE.
00:18:03.41\00:18:07.02
I WOULD LIKE YOU TO EXPLAIN TO
OUR VIEWERS WHY ARE YOU MAKING
00:18:07.02\00:18:12.52
THE COMPARISON BETEEN
EVANGELISM AND SWORDSMEN?
00:18:12.52\00:18:22.26
THE WORD OF GOD IS LIVING
AND COMPARES SCRIPTURES TO A
00:18:22.26\00:18:30.54
SWORD. >> SWORDS AND SPIRIT.
00:18:30.54\00:18:33.74
THERE IS OUR COMPARISON. OKAY.
00:18:33.74\00:18:35.61
>> WE ARE USING THE WORD OF
GOD IN CLOSE QUARTERS, RIGHT?
00:18:35.61\00:18:40.08
YOU USE THE WORD OF GOD
WHEN YOU SPEAK TO PEOPLE.
00:18:40.08\00:18:42.58
YOU ARE GIVING THEM
BASICALLY THE TRUTH.
00:18:42.58\00:18:45.42
THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE
USING AS YOUR SWORD, TO CUT.
00:18:45.42\00:18:49.66
AS EFFECTIVE AS THAT MAY
BE, WHAT YOU NEED FIRST IS YOU
00:18:49.66\00:18:53.06
NEED LONG DISTANCE WARFARE.
YOU NEED THE ARCHERS TO LAUNCH
00:18:53.06\00:18:57.77
INTO THAT LINE. WHAT
AN ARCHER IS A PRAYER
00:18:57.77\00:19:01.24
WARRIOR, SOMEBODY WHO PRAYS.
IF YOU BASICALLY START HACKING
00:19:01.24\00:19:04.44
AWAY WITHOUT THE SPIRIT OF
GOD, THEN IT'S NOT GOING TO BE
00:19:04.44\00:19:07.88
AS EFFECTIVE. YOU
WANT THE SPIRIT OF GOD TO
00:19:07.88\00:19:10.31
GO BEFORE YOU. SO WE PRAY FIRST.
00:19:10.31\00:19:15.15
AN ARCHER CAN'T
GO AGAINST A WALL.
00:19:15.15\00:19:16.55
YOU NEED A SEIGE
WEAPON. A SEIGE WEAPON IS NOT AT
00:19:16.55\00:19:21.79
MOBILE AND REQUIRES
MULTIPLE PEOPLE TO RUN.
00:19:21.79\00:19:23.09
WHAT A SEIGE
WEAPON IS A PRAYER GROUP.
00:19:23.09\00:19:27.60
A GROUP OF PEOPLE THAT UNITES
IN PRAYER TO HIT A SECTION OF
00:19:27.60\00:19:32.20
WALL. YOU CAN'T
RANDOMLY PEPPER A
00:19:32.20\00:19:34.60
WALL AND EXPECT IT TO FALL.
YOU HAVE TO CHOOSE ONE SPOT,
00:19:34.60\00:19:37.77
ONE SPECIFIC
THING THAT YOU CAN SEE.
00:19:37.77\00:19:41.34
TOGETHER YOU UNITE IN PRAYER
TO BASICALLY HIT THAT SAME
00:19:41.34\00:19:44.35
SPOT OVER AND OVER AND OVER
AGAIN UNTIL A BREACH IS MADE
00:19:44.35\00:19:47.82
THAT ALLOWS THINGS
LIKE EVANGELISM TO GO IN.
00:19:47.82\00:19:51.49
WHEN I WAS WORKING IN ATLANTA
THERE WAS A MINISTRY WE WERE A
00:19:51.49\00:19:53.96
PART OF THAT I WAS A PART
OF THAT FOR THREE YEAR I WORKED
00:19:53.96\00:19:57.39
WITH THEM. WE WERE
RUNNING A 24-HOUR CALL
00:19:57.39\00:20:02.63
CENTER RESCUING WOMEN FROM
TRAFFICKING, FROM PROSTITUTION
00:20:02.63\00:20:05.97
THERE WAS A THAT WANTED
TO PRAY FOR US 24HOURS A DAY.
00:20:05.97\00:20:13.88
YES, ABSOLUTELY, THANK YOU.
WHAT THEY DID, THEY BROUGHT A
00:20:13.88\00:20:18.45
CHURCH BUILDING IN A PART OF
TOWN THAT IS STHEAD, RUN
DOWN,-THEY KNEW TRAFFICKING WAS
00:20:18.45\00:20:24.22
GOING IN THAT AREA.
THEY TRADE 24 HOURS A DAY AND
00:20:24.22\00:20:27.32
PRAYED FOR THE
COMMUNITY 24 HOURS A DAY.
00:20:27.32\00:20:30.43
>> WHAT AN
INCREDIBLE COMMITMENT.
00:20:30.43\00:20:32.69
>> OBVIOUSLY THEY DIDN'T
PRAY 24 HOURS CONTINUOUSLY.
00:20:32.69\00:20:35.86
PEOPLE WOULD COME IN FOR
TWO HOURS THERE WAS ALWAYS
00:20:35.86\00:20:39.50
SOMEBODY IN THE CHURCH PRAYING
24 HOURS AROUND THE CLOCK.
00:20:39.50\00:20:44.21
WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN THE
HOURS OF 10:00 AND 4:00 A.M.,
00:20:44.21\00:20:46.68
THE PEOPLE THAT WERE SCHEDULED
TO PRAY HAD TROUBLE HEARING
00:20:46.68\00:20:50.58
THEMSELVES PRAY THERE WAS A
CLUB ABOUT A BLOCK OR SO, ON
00:20:50.58\00:20:54.28
THE SAME BLOCK,
A LITTLE WAYS DOWN.
00:20:54.28\00:20:55.72
THE MUSIC WAS SO LOUD THEY
HAD TROUBLE HEARING THEMSELVES.
00:20:55.72\00:20:59.42
SO THEY SAID, WE ARE NOT GOING
TO RESIST FROM PRAYING, WE ARE
00:20:59.42\00:21:05.69
CREATING A WALL
UNWE'LL YELL OUR PRAYERS.
00:21:05.69\00:21:09.43
ABOUT A YEAR, YEAR AND A
HALF LATER, THERE WAS A STING
00:21:09.43\00:21:12.43
OPERATION DONE ON THAT
CLUB. THE OWNER WAS ARRESTED.
00:21:12.43\00:21:16.67
WE DON'T KNOW THE DETAILS.
THE GOVERNMENT CAME TO THE
00:21:16.67\00:21:18.81
CHURCH MEMBERS AND SAID,
HEY, THERE IS A VACATE BUILDING
00:21:18.81\00:21:21.94
WOULD YOU LIKE TO USE IT
AS YOUR NEW CHURCH BUILDING?
00:21:21.94\00:21:26.15
>> HOW WONDERFUL.
>> YES, ABSOLUTELY.
00:21:26.15\00:21:27.68
WE'LL TAKE IT. THEY GO.
00:21:27.68\00:21:29.65
AS THEY WERE CLEANING IT
OUT, GETTING IT READY TO MAKE IT
00:21:29.65\00:21:32.29
INTO A CHURCH,
THEY FIND A TRAP DOOR.
00:21:32.29\00:21:35.19
THEY FIND A TRP DOOR, THEY GO
INTO THE BASEMENT OF THIS
CLUB-AND THEY SEE TONS OF
00:21:35.19\00:21:41.43
SECTIONED OFF ROOMS
WITH TORTURE DEVICES.
00:21:41.43\00:21:44.30
DID THEY KNOW THAT WAS GOING ON?
00:21:44.30\00:21:46.37
THEY HAD NO IDEA
WHAT WAS BEHIND THE WALL.
00:21:46.37\00:21:49.80
WHEN WE TALK A WALL. WE
DON'T KNOW WHAT IS BEHIND
00:21:49.80\00:21:52.57
THE WALL. WE KNOW
WE HAVE BEEN ASKED TO
00:21:52.57\00:21:54.44
BREAK DOWN AND CRATE
A BREACH IN THAT WALL.
00:21:54.44\00:21:56.95
SO WHEN WE GET TOGETHER
AND SAY, LORD, WE DON'T KNOW
00:21:56.95\00:22:00.42
EXACTLY WHAT IS GOING ON, BUT
WE KNOW THERE IS EVIL IN THIS
00:22:00.42\00:22:03.95
PLACE, THERE IS A STRONGHOLD
OF SATAN AND WE NEED TO BRING
00:22:03.95\00:22:11.06
BREAK DOWN THE WALL. WE
GET TOGETHER AND WE PRAY
00:22:11.06\00:22:13.43
AND WE PRAY.
SOMETIMES IT WILL TAKE A YEAR,
00:22:13.43\00:22:17.50
THE CATAPULT IS A SLOW
UNITS. THEY ARE NOT FAST MOVING.
00:22:17.50\00:22:21.60
IT TAKES COMMITMENT. THE
MOMENT THAT YOU COMMIT TO
00:22:21.60\00:22:23.87
DOING THAT IS THE MOMENT THAT
THE REST OF YOUR SOLDIERS WILL
00:22:23.87\00:22:28.38
HAVE ACCESS BECAUSE YOU
HAVE CREATED THE BREACH IN THE
00:22:28.38\00:22:31.58
STRONGHOLD. THAT'S
WHAT WE THINK WHEN WE
00:22:31.58\00:22:34.82
THINK OF UNITS. WE
CAN GO DEEPER BUT I THINK
00:22:34.82\00:22:38.29
THAT IS THE MAIN PART THAT
WE WANT PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND.
00:22:38.29\00:22:41.56
THE MAIN PART THAT
OUR MINISTRY CONSISTS OF.
00:22:41.56\00:22:45.69
>> INTERESTING, AND I'M
SURE YOU HAVE HEARD THIS
00:22:45.69\00:22:49.46
EXPRESSION. WELL,
THERE'S NOTHING LEFT I
00:22:49.46\00:22:51.47
CAN DO BUT PRAY. LIKE
I'VE RUN OUT OF OPTIONS,
00:22:51.47\00:22:57.54
ABOUT I CAN PRAY.
PRAYER IS THE GREATEST THING,
00:22:57.54\00:23:02.81
IT IS BRINGING DOWN THE WALL.
>> IT IS UNFORTUNATELY MANY
00:23:02.81\00:23:06.72
TIMES IT'S SEEN AS A
LAST RESORT, IN A WAY.
00:23:06.72\00:23:11.35
WHICH IS TOTALLY
FLIPPED ON ITS HEAD.
00:23:11.35\00:23:14.09
IT SHOULD BE THE FIRST THING
THAT WE DO IN ANY SPIRITUAL
00:23:14.09\00:23:18.69
WORK. IT SHOULD
BE THE FOUNDATION.
00:23:18.69\00:23:22.46
BECAUSE IF YOU ARE REDUCED
TO THE POINT WHERE YOU CAN'T DO
00:23:22.46\00:23:25.47
ANYTHING BUT PRAY, GOD IS
BASICALLY SAYING FINALLY, HE
00:23:25.47\00:23:28.37
IS IN A POSITION
WHERE HE CAN HAVE POWER.
00:23:28.37\00:23:31.31
GOD IS TRYING TO REMOVE
THE THINGS THAT ARE MEANT TO BE
00:23:31.31\00:23:35.24
ADDED LATER ON SO THAT YOU
AN FOCUS ON THE THING THAT IS
00:23:35.24\00:23:38.68
MEANT TO BE FIRST. >>
WHAT DO YOU THINK ARE THE
00:23:38.68\00:23:42.45
GREATEST PRAYER
HINDRANCES? IS IT OUR PRIDE?
00:23:42.45\00:23:46.55
WHAT IS IT ABOUT SO MANY
THAT PRAYER IS A LOST RESORT.
00:23:46.55\00:23:54.23
THANK YOU JESUS
FOR THIS MORNING.
00:23:54.23\00:23:55.96
THANK YOU FOR THIS FOOD.
BUT FOR REALLY SERIOUS PRAYER,
00:23:55.96\00:24:00.30
IT IS A LAST RESORT FOR MANY.
WHAT DO YOU THINK -- THAT'S
00:24:00.30\00:24:04.07
PART OF THE SPIRITUAL BATTLE.
>> I WOULD SAY IT'S THREE
00:24:04.07\00:24:08.14
THINGS. THREE
THINGS THAT COME FIRST
00:24:08.14\00:24:09.64
TO MIND ARE THIS. WE
DON'T UNDERSTAND THE GREAT
00:24:09.64\00:24:13.95
CONTROVERSY. AS A
REAL SPIRITUAL WAR.
00:24:13.95\00:24:16.62
WE HAVE IDENTIFIED THE TWO
BEINGS IN THE CONTROVERSY ARE
00:24:16.62\00:24:20.32
SPIRITUAL, CHRIST AND
SATAN. THE ONLY WAY TO ENGAGE IN
00:24:20.32\00:24:24.56
WARFARE BETWEEN TWO SPIRITUAL
BEINGS IS THROUGH SPIRITUAL
00:24:24.56\00:24:27.03
MEANS. WE FORGET THAT.
00:24:27.03\00:24:29.60
WE DON'T SEE THERE
IS A REAL CONFLICT.
00:24:29.60\00:24:31.93
WE ARE NOT CONVINCED THERE IS
A BATTLE OVER THE INFLUENCE OF
00:24:31.93\00:24:35.24
OUR MINDS.
SOMETHING IS TRYING TO TAKE
00:24:35.24\00:24:37.51
CONTROL AND INFLUENCE US
IN A CERTAIN DIRECTION, EITHER
00:24:37.51\00:24:40.18
TOWARDS GOD OR TOWARD SATAN
THE SECOND THING IS WE DON'T
00:24:40.18\00:24:44.28
HAVE FAITH. WE
DON'T BELIEVE THAT GOD
00:24:44.28\00:24:47.58
ANSWERS PROMISES. WE
DON'T HAVE PERSONAL VICTORY
00:24:47.58\00:24:49.65
IN OUR LIVES. WE
DON'T BELIEVE THAT GOD
00:24:49.65\00:24:52.05
LISTENS TO US. SO
HOW CAN WE PRAY FOR HUGE
00:24:52.05\00:24:56.86
THINGS WHEN WE DON'T HAVE
VICTORY IN THE SMALL THINGS.
00:24:56.86\00:24:59.96
I HAD A THIRD THING
-- >> I WOULD SAY SATAN'S
00:24:59.96\00:25:05.77
DISTRACTIONS. >>
THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS TO
00:25:05.77\00:25:09.27
TAKE YOUR MIND AWAY FROM
SPIRITUAL THINGS, THAT WHEN
00:25:09.27\00:25:15.44
YOU DO COME TO SPEND TIME
IN PRAYER, IF YOU HAVE BEEN
00:25:15.44\00:25:19.71
FOCUSING ON MOVIES AND GAMES
AND Facebook AND ALL OF THIS
00:25:19.71\00:25:22.45
OTHER STUFF, IT
BECOMES DISTASTEFUL.
00:25:22.45\00:25:25.55
>> I WANTED TO
BROADEN THAT JUST A LITTLE.
00:25:25.55\00:25:28.72
THOSE ARE MORE LIKE
FORMS OF ENTERTAINMENT.
00:25:28.72\00:25:31.19
BUT MANY PEOPLE ARE FOCUSED
ON JUST GETTING THEIR WORK DONE,
00:25:31.19\00:25:34.96
GETTING THE HOUSE
CLEAN, GETTING THE CHILDREN'S
00:25:34.96\00:25:39.10
HOMEWORK DONE. THERE
IS SO MUCH GOING ON IN
00:25:39.10\00:25:41.57
SOCIETY TODAY. >>
YOU KNOW, THE ONLY WAY, I
00:25:41.57\00:25:45.37
THINK, TO GET PAST THAT,
AND OBVIOUSLY WE ARE STILL -- WE
00:25:45.37\00:25:51.05
DON'T SPEAK UP HERE, WE
ARE STILL LEARNING AND GROWING
00:25:51.05\00:25:56.48
EVERY DAY. ALL OF IT.
00:25:56.48\00:25:57.82
THE WAY THAT I AM LEARNING
TO GET BEYOND THAT IS YOU JUST
00:25:57.82\00:26:02.16
HAVE TO INVEST.
THAT'S THE ONLY WAY TO DO IT.
00:26:02.16\00:26:06.19
YOU HAVE TO INVEST IN MAKING
THAT THAT A PRIORITY, MAKING
00:26:06.19\00:26:14.10
YOUR TIME WITH GOD AND
INTERCESSION A PRIORITY.
00:26:14.10\00:26:18.37
>> WHAT HIT ME, THE REASON
PEOPLE INVEST IS BECAUSE THEY
00:26:18.37\00:26:21.21
KNOW THERE WILL BE AN
R.O.I., RETURN ON INVESTMENT.
00:26:21.21\00:26:26.68
IF YOU UNDERSTAND THE RETURN
ON INVESTMENT, I WAS TOLD THE
00:26:26.68\00:26:29.45
WAY YOU INVEST YOUR TIME IS
THE WAY YOU INVEST YOUR LIFE.
00:26:29.45\00:26:33.42
TIME IS LIFE. IF YOU
UNDERSTAND THAT -- WHO
00:26:33.42\00:26:39.03
WAS IT MARTIN LUTHER SAYING
HOW HE WAS SO BUSY THAT DAY
00:26:39.03\00:26:42.56
THAT HE HAD TO SPENT THE
FIRST SIX HOURS IN PRAYER.
00:26:42.56\00:26:48.27
THAT IS COUNTER INTUITIVE
TO US BUT THAT IS HOW HE WAS SO
00:26:48.27\00:26:54.71
PRODUCTIVE. >> I
WANTED TO GO BACK TO WHAT
00:26:54.71\00:26:57.18
WE WERE TALKING ABOUT, THE
ILLUSTRATION THAT ALEX GAVE OF
00:26:57.18\00:27:01.02
THE WAY THAT IT HAPPENED
WITH THIS CHURCH, PRAYING AND
00:27:01.02\00:27:05.52
BASICALLY GOD GAVE THEM THE
TERRITORY WE WERE PRAYING FOR.
00:27:05.52\00:27:11.66
RIGHT? I WANTED
TO TOUCH ON THAT.
00:27:11.66\00:27:13.63
THAT HAS A LOT TO DO
WITH-SOMETHING ELSE THAT WE TALK
ABOUT WHEN WE GO TO CHURCHES
00:27:13.63\00:27:18.70
OR PLACES TO SPEAK ON THESE
THINGS, IS THE IDEA OF TAKING
00:27:18.70\00:27:25.34
TERRITORIES.
IT'S VERY INTERESTING,
00:27:25.34\00:27:26.94
ACTUALLY, IF YOU
LOOK IN SCRIPTURE.
00:27:26.94\00:27:29.34
I'LL GIVE YOU A
COUPLE OF EXAMPLES.
00:27:29.34\00:27:33.28
LOOK AT JOB CHAPTER 1.
BASICALLY VERSUS 6 THROUGH 11,
00:27:33.28\00:27:40.26
OR 6 THROUGH 10,
REALLY. YOU SEE THIS STORY OF
00:27:40.26\00:27:46.70
BASICALLY SATAN GOING TO
HEAVEN, TO THE COUNSEL IN
00:27:46.70\00:27:51.87
HEAVEN AS A
REPRESENTATIVE OF EARTH, RIGHT?
00:27:51.87\00:27:55.47
HE GOES AND GOD ASKS WHAT HAVE
YOU BEEN DOING, HE SAYS I'VE
00:27:55.47\00:28:00.84
BEEN GOING 20 AND FRO.
I.E., THIS IS MY TERRITORY.
00:28:00.84\00:28:05.91
GOD SAYS, YES, BUT, HAVE
YOU NOTICED I HAVE TERRITORY
00:28:05.91\00:28:09.48
THERE, TOO. HAVE
YOU NOTICED MY SERVANT
00:28:09.48\00:28:13.36
JOB? WHAT DOES THE ENEMY SAID,
00:28:13.36\00:28:16.79
HAVEN'T YOU PUT A HEDGE
AROUND HIM AND ON EVERY SIDE?
00:28:16.79\00:28:21.83
WHEN YOU CONTINUE TO READ
THE STORY, WHY, BECAUSE JOB WAS
00:28:21.83\00:28:27.14
INTERCEDING ON BEHALF OF
HIS FAMILY AND HIS CHILDREN.
00:28:27.14\00:28:30.11
EVERY DAY HE WOULD
SACRIFICE AND BRING THEM TO GOD.
00:28:30.11\00:28:35.34
SO YOU HAVE THIS IDEA,
IT'S KIND OF STRANGE TO THINK
00:28:35.34\00:28:40.18
ABOUT. WE DON'T
USUALLY CONNECT IT IN
00:28:40.18\00:28:42.45
THIS WAY. YOU
HAVE THE IDEA OF THE
00:28:42.45\00:28:46.45
SPIRITUAL WORLD ACTUALLY
WORKING BASED ON GEOGRAPHICAL
00:28:46.45\00:28:52.69
TERRITORIES. >> I BELIEVE THAT.
00:28:52.69\00:28:53.66
>> YOU HAVE THE SAME THING IN
DANIEL CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL 10,
00:28:53.66\00:28:58.13
VERSUS 12 AND 13.
DANIEL CHAPTER 10, GABLE COMES
00:28:58.13\00:29:07.01
TO DANIEL AND HE SAYS, DANIEL
HAD BEEN APRAYING FOR THREE
00:29:07.01\00:29:11.61
WEEKS. HE SAYS I
WAS HELD UP BECAUSE
00:29:11.61\00:29:13.72
I WAS IN A STRUGGLE
WITH THE PRINCE OF PERSIA.
00:29:13.72\00:29:17.52
HE WASN'T STRUGGLING WITH A MAN.
00:29:17.52\00:29:19.29
ANGELS DON'T HAVE
TO STRUGGLE WITH A MAN.
00:29:19.29\00:29:21.36
HE WAS STRUGGLING WITH A
BEING, A SPIRITUAL BEING FROM
00:29:21.36\00:29:24.76
THE OTHER SIDE, WHO IS
CALLED THE PRINCE OF PERSIA.
00:29:24.76\00:29:29.43
IN OTHER WORDS, THERE WAS AN
ANGEL, A FALLEN ANGEL OVER THE
00:29:29.43\00:29:33.80
KINGDOM OF PERSIA, OVER THE
PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHIC TERRITORY.
00:29:33.80\00:29:39.21
YOU SEE IN EPHESIANS 6
THE WORD PRINCIPALITIES, WE
00:29:39.21\00:29:45.38
WRESTLE NOT AGAINST FLESH
AND BLOOD BUT PRINCIPALITIES AND
00:29:45.38\00:29:49.95
POWERS. THE WORD
PRINCIPALITY HAS TO
00:29:49.95\00:29:52.35
DO WITH THAT. THE
DEFINITION IS ABOUT A
00:29:52.35\00:29:55.96
TERRITORY OR A REGION WITH
A PRINCE OR PRINCESS OVER IT.
00:29:55.96\00:30:00.83
PRINCIPALITY IS A BEING OVER
AN AREA, A GEOGRAPHICAL AREA.
00:30:00.83\00:30:07.94
AND SO I WANTED TO MENTION
THAT BECAUSE THIS IS ACTUALLY
00:30:07.94\00:30:10.77
ONE OF THE ASPECTS THA WE
TALK ABOUT WHEN WE GO PLACES,
00:30:10.77\00:30:16.68
TO CHURCHES AND TO TALK TO
GROUPS ABOUT THIS MINISTRY.
00:30:16.68\00:30:21.85
WE BELIEVE VERY MUCH IN
GOING INTO ESPECIALLY INTO OUR
00:30:21.85\00:30:26.49
CITIES AND TOWNS TO PRAY
FOR THOSE AREAS THAT GOD WOULD
00:30:26.49\00:30:31.19
WITH BREAK DOWN THE SPIRITUAL
BARRIERS THERE TO TAKE THEM
00:30:31.19\00:30:33.93
OVER. JOSHUA 1-3,
WHEREVER YOU SET A
00:30:33.93\00:30:39.57
SOLDIER AFOOT AND THERE
IS OBVIOUS REASONS FOR THAT.
00:30:39.57\00:30:42.10
ONE, WHEN YOU GO TO A PLACE TO
PRAY, THERE IS NOTHING MAGICAL
00:30:42.10\00:30:47.88
ABOUT BEING IN A
PLACE AND PRAYING THERE.
00:30:47.88\00:30:50.95
ONE, YOU CAN SEE
WHAT IS THERE TO PRAY FOR.
00:30:50.95\00:30:53.31
YOU DON'T KNOW,
OTHERWISE, RIGHT?
00:30:53.31\00:30:55.68
SO YOU CAN SEE WHAT
TO PRAY FOR SPECIFICALLY.
00:30:55.68\00:30:58.95
NUMBER TWO, IT'S BECAUSE GOD-HAS
A FREE WILL AGENT IN THAT PLACE,
A REPRESENTATIVE ASKING
00:30:58.95\00:31:08.00
HIM, INVITING HIM TO BE THERE.
AND SO THAT WAS A LOT OF WHAT
00:31:08.00\00:31:13.57
WE DID IN BRAZIL WAS ACTUALLY
GO THROUGH THE CITIES AND PRAY
00:31:13.57\00:31:17.47
IN THE CITIES, PRAY FOR
THE CITIES, PRAY ALONG THE
00:31:17.47\00:31:23.55
STADIUMS, SAYING GOD,
WE'RE HERE, YOU HAVE SOMEBODY
00:31:23.55\00:31:27.78
INVITING YOU TO BE HERE, COME
BREAK THE WALLS DOWN SO YOUR
00:31:27.78\00:31:32.39
WORK CAN BE DONE HERE.
>> SO YOU WERE ANSWERING
00:31:32.39\00:31:36.29
ISAIAH WHERE IT SAYS GOD
LOOKED DOWN AND SAW NO MAN AND
00:31:36.29\00:31:40.23
WONDERED WHY THERE
WAS NO INTERCESSOR.
00:31:40.23\00:31:42.46
GOD WILL NOT FORCE HIS WILL.
EVEN WHEN YOU ARE PRAYING FOR
00:31:42.46\00:31:47.77
A LOVED ONE, YOU MAY SEE
YOUR LOVED ONES TAKING THE WRONG
00:31:47.77\00:31:53.68
PATH. IF THEY
ARE NOT GOING TO PRAY
00:31:53.68\00:31:55.84
FOR THEMSELVES, PRAY FOR
THEM. GOD IS NOT GOING TO FORCE
00:31:55.84\00:31:59.48
HIMSELF. HE HAS
HANDCUFFS OF LOVE ON
00:31:59.48\00:32:03.28
HIM THAT HE IS NOT GOING
TO FORCE HIS WILL ON ANYONE.
00:32:03.28\00:32:06.49
BOY, PRAYER IS THE KEY
THAT UNDOES THOSE HANDCUFFS.
00:32:06.49\00:32:09.69
NOW HE HAS PERMISSION TO WORK
IN THAT PERPENDICULAR'S LIFE
00:32:09.69\00:32:13.23
OR IN THIS CITY SITUATION.
YOU SA SOME AMAZING RESULTS
00:32:13.23\00:32:18.77
TO PRAYER WHEN YOU
WERE THERE, DIDN'T YOU?
00:32:18.77\00:32:22.90
>> YES. WE DID.
00:32:22.90\00:32:24.21
TO GO BACK A LITTLE BIT ON
WHAT I WAS SAYING IN TERMS O
00:32:24.21\00:32:28.51
WE HAVE THE PRINCE OF
PERSIA, WE HAVE THIS SPIRIT
00:32:28.51\00:32:31.78
INFLUENCING THINGS IN
PERSIA. HE IS THE HEAD.
00:32:31.78\00:32:34.42
SO WE KNOW THERE IS A
HIERARCHY IN THE SPIRITUAL
00:32:34.42\00:32:38.09
WORLD, EVEN ON SATE.
'S SIDE THERE ARE CERTAIN
00:32:38.09\00:32:43.76
DEMONSES, THERE IS STRONGER
ONES, DIFFERENT ROLES, A
00:32:43.76\00:32:46.76
CERTAIN LEVEL OF ORGANIZATION.
YOU HAVE A LEGION WAS CAST OUT
00:32:46.76\00:32:51.30
OF ONE MAN. WHAT
YOU HAVE, YOU HAVE
00:32:51.30\00:32:56.14
BASICALLY SPIRITS THAT ARE
AHEAD OF A LARGER TERRITORY
00:32:56.14\00:32:59.77
AND SMALLER ONES. SO A
LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE ASKED
00:32:59.77\00:33:02.71
THIS. THERE IS NO
PLACE IN THE BIBLE
00:33:02.71\00:33:04.68
WHERE YOU SHOULD
PRAY FOR A PLACE.
00:33:04.68\00:33:07.02
WHERE DOES IT SAY I SHOULD
PRAY FOR THAT NIGHTCLUB OR
00:33:07.02\00:33:11.55
PRAY FOR THIS NEIGHBORHOOD.
IN REALITY YOU ARE NOT SO MUCH
00:33:11.55\00:33:14.46
PRAYING FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD
AS ASKING GOD TO CAST OUT THE
00:33:14.46\00:33:17.43
SPIRIT THAT IS
RULING THAT NEIGHBORHOOD.
00:33:17.43\00:33:19.39
IF YOU HAVE BEEN TO A PLACE
OR A CITY, WHERE YOU WALK ON ONE
00:33:19.39\00:33:23.13
STREET AND YOU FEEL LIKE, WOW,
THERE IS SOMETHING DIFFERENT
00:33:23.13\00:33:27.00
HERE. YOU GO TO
THE NEXT STREET, OH,
00:33:27.00\00:33:30.27
IT'S TOTALLY FINE THERE ARE
CERTAIN PLACES WHERE YOU CAN
00:33:30.27\00:33:35.24
FEEL A CERTAIN DIFFERENT
INFLUENCE THAN OTHER PLACES.
00:33:35.24\00:33:39.55
WE KNOW THERE ARE AREAS,
TERRITORIES THAT DIFERENT
00:33:39.55\00:33:43.52
SPIRITS HAVE DWIIVE
ED UP AMONGST THEMSELF.
00:33:43.52\00:33:48.72
ONE THING WE ARE
CRITICAL OF OUR LEADER.
00:33:48.72\00:33:51.33
WE LIKE TO MAKE FUN OF
WHATEVER PRESIDENT OR ROYAL
00:33:51.33\00:33:55.23
FAMILY, BACKUP THE WAY
SATAN WORK, HE FINDS THE LARGEST
00:33:55.23\00:33:59.90
TERRITORY AND FIGHTS THE
PERSON AT THE TOP, THE PERSON
00:33:59.90\00:34:02.80
WHO HAS AUTHORITY. HE
FIGHTS WITH THAT PERSON.
00:34:02.80\00:34:05.31
HE GETS THEM TO
FALL AND MAKES MISTAKES.
00:34:05.31\00:34:07.31
THEN HE GOES TO THE PEOPLE
UNDER THEM AND CAUSES THEM TO
00:34:07.31\00:34:10.65
REBEL. LOOK HOW BAD THAT PERSON
00:34:10.65\00:34:13.88
RESPONDED TO THIS,
THAT AND THE OTHER.
00:34:13.88\00:34:16.22
AND THEN HE GETS THE PEOPLE
UNDER THAT LEADER TO REBEL.
00:34:16.22\00:34:19.69
SOMETIMES I WONDER HOW MUCH
MORE WE COULD GET DONE WHICH
00:34:19.69\00:34:24.16
INSTEAD OF CRITICIZING
THE PEOPLE THAT GOD HAS PUT IN
00:34:24.16\00:34:27.46
POWER, BECAUSE IT SAYS HE
HAS PUT THOSE PEOPLE IN POWER.
00:34:27.46\00:34:31.57
HOW MUCH MORE WE COUD GET
DONE IF WE STOP CRITICIZING
00:34:31.57\00:34:35.40
THOSE THAT HAVE
INFLUENCE AND PRAYING FOR THEM.
00:34:35.40\00:34:39.27
START PRAYING THAT GOD WOULD
INTERCEDE AND TAKE THE SPIRITS
00:34:39.27\00:34:42.91
OF INFLUENCE THAT IS MAKING
THEM MAKE WRONG CHOICES AND
00:34:42.91\00:34:46.48
BEGIN PROTECTING THEM
AND CAUSE THEM TO MAKE RIGHT
00:34:46.48\00:34:49.98
CHOICES. INSTEAD
WE BRING THEM DOWN
00:34:49.98\00:34:52.79
ALONG WITH SATAN RATHER
THAN-LIFTING THEM UP. >> THAT IS
00:34:52.79\00:34:59.53
THE HUMAN DILEMMA, WE HAVE THIS
TENDENCY TO BE JUDGMENTAL AND
00:34:59.53\00:35:05.90
BACK-BITING. LET ME
JUMP BACK FOR ONE SECOND.
00:35:05.90\00:35:10.47
WHEN YOU WERE IN BRAZIL,
YOU HAD INCREDIBLE RESULTS.
00:35:10.47\00:35:14.41
>> YES. >> YOU WERE PRAYING AND
00:35:14.41\00:35:15.61
WALKING THROUGH THE STREETS.
WHEN YOU ARE GOING UP AGAINST
00:35:15.61\00:35:20.28
PRINCIPALITIES LIKE THIS,
DID YOU EXPERIENCE PUSH-BACK?
00:35:20.28\00:35:27.49
HOW MUCH DID YOU HAVE
THE-PERSONAL DEMONIC ATTACK ON
YOU BY THESE BEINGS, BECAUSE
00:35:27.49\00:35:34.63
CERTAINLY YOU WEREN'T UNNOTICED.
00:35:34.63\00:35:36.77
DID YOU FIND -- DID YOU EVER
FIND YOURSELF IN A SITUATION
00:35:36.77\00:35:39.50
WHERE YOU WERE FEARFUL OR
SOMETHING POPPED UP THAT YOU
00:35:39.50\00:35:43.54
WERE, LIKE, OH,
OKAY, HE KNOWS WE'RE HERE?
00:35:43.54\00:35:47.08
>> WE
DEFINITELY HAD QUITE A FEW.
00:35:47.08\00:35:48.08
IT WAS MORE THAN
JUST ONE OCCASION.
00:35:48.08\00:35:51.05
THE BIGGEST IS WHEN WE HAD AN
EX-SATANIST CONVERTED WITHIN A
00:35:51.05\00:35:56.32
WEEK AND HE NEEDED TO BE
BAPTIST EYED SO HE CAN GIVE US
00:35:56.32\00:36:00.56
A MESSAGE. I DON'T
WANT TO USE THE TIME
00:36:00.56\00:36:04.83
UP BUT THERE WAS
AN EX-ING-SATANIST.
00:36:04.83\00:36:10.20
HE WANTED MONEY TO
GO BACK TO ANOTHER CITY.
00:36:10.20\00:36:13.07
THE PASTOR SAID NO.
HE SAYS WE'LL BUY YOU THE
00:36:13.07\00:36:15.50
TICKET IF YOU WORK. HE
LISTENED TO THE MESSAGE
00:36:15.50\00:36:17.97
THAT THE PASTOR AND THE
HEAD BIBLE WORKER WERE DOING AND
00:36:17.97\00:36:21.54
WITHIN THREE DAYS
HE WANTED BAPTIZED.
00:36:21.54\00:36:25.08
HE SAID I'VE NEVER HEARD THE
GREAT CONTROVERSY EXPLAINED BY
00:36:25.08\00:36:29.12
ANY OTHER CHRISTIAN
DENOMINATION THE WAY YOU
00:36:29.12\00:36:31.62
EXPLAIN IT. HE FELT
THAT EVEN THOUGH THEY
00:36:31.62\00:36:34.46
EXPLAINED IT, THEE
WAS SOMETHING MISSING.
00:36:34.46\00:36:36.02
HE ASKED THE PASTOR IF THE
TWO MISSIONARIES STAYING AT HIS
00:36:36.02\00:36:40.06
HOUSE WOULD WORK WITH HIM.
HE SAID, LISTEN, I KNOW WHAT
00:36:40.06\00:36:43.70
YOU ARE DOING HE SAID I HAVE
A MESSAGE BUT I CAN'T TELL YOU
00:36:43.70\00:36:48.60
UNTIL I GET BAPTIZED
BECAUSE I'M NOT SAFE.
00:36:48.60\00:36:52.11
HE GOT BAPTIZED AND HE GAVE US
A THREE-HOUR TALK ON SPIRITUAL
00:36:52.11\00:36:56.91
WARFARE AND HOW THE FORCES ON
THE OTHER SIDE OPERATE AND HOW
00:36:56.91\00:37:00.18
THEY ARE AFTER US, WHEN YOU
ARE INVOLVED IN INTERCESSORY
00:37:00.18\00:37:06.22
TERRITORY, WHETHER YOU'RE
TAKING TERRITORY OR PEOPLE
00:37:06.22\00:37:09.06
TERRITORY FROM HIM THAT SATAN
DOESN'T FORGET THOSE KINDS OF
00:37:09.06\00:37:13.16
THINGS. YOU ARE
PUTTING A MARK UPON
00:37:13.16\00:37:15.10
YOURSELF AND ASKING
FOR HIM TO TRY TO KILL YOU.
00:37:15.10\00:37:18.07
HE SAYS TWO
THINGS HE WILL TRY TO DO.
00:37:18.07\00:37:20.30
HE SAYS HE WILL TRY TO GET
YOU TO DIE OR HE WILL TRY TO GET
00:37:20.30\00:37:24.71
TO YOU FALL INTO SOME SORT
OF SIN SO YOU LOSE THE POWER OF
00:37:24.71\00:37:29.11
GOD IN YOUR MINISTRY. >>
SO THE POINT IS, BECAUSE WE
00:37:29.11\00:37:32.15
ARE TALKING ABOUT THIS AND
THIS IS WHY I WANTED TO BRING
00:37:32.15\00:37:35.15
THE POINT UP. IS
THIS SOMETHING WE SHOULD
00:37:35.15\00:37:37.65
ALL BE ENGAGED IN BECAUSE
INTERCESSORY PRAYER IS THE
00:37:37.65\00:37:41.82
HIGHEST CALLING
TO MINISTRY THERE IS.
00:37:41.82\00:37:44.19
THIS IS THE
MINISTRY OF OUR SIFF EURO.
00:37:44.19\00:37:49.40
WE DON'T GO OUT LIGHTLY.
YOU NEED TO BE COMMITTED.
00:37:49.40\00:37:53.97
YOU NEED TO HAVE BEEN
REPENTANT AND ASKING GOD TO
00:37:53.97\00:37:57.67
COVER YOUR SINS. THIS
IS SOMETHING TO TAKE VERY
00:37:57.67\00:38:04.61
SERIOUSLY. >>
REPENITANCE ALWAYS COMES
00:38:04.61\00:38:07.08
FIRST.-úTHE MAN TOLD US WHEN YOU
GO OUT AND PRAY IN NEIGHBORHOODS
00:38:07.08\00:38:12.79
AND THESE PLACES WHERE YOU
ARE GOING, YOU BETTER NOT TAKE
00:38:12.79\00:38:16.89
ANYBODY WITH YOU WHO IS
NOT COMMITTED AND SERIOUS.
00:38:16.89\00:38:19.43
IF THEY ARE THINKING ABOUT
SOCCER AND THIS AND THAT, THEY
00:38:19.43\00:38:24.07
WILL WEAKEN THE INFLUENCE OF
GOD'S ANGELS AROUND YOU THAT'S
00:38:24.07\00:38:33.01
HOW I FEEL ABOUT THE ANOINTING.
00:38:33.01\00:38:35.01
YOU DON'T WANT ANYONE IN
THE ROOM THAT DOESN'T HAVE
00:38:35.01\00:38:38.71
ABSOLUTE FAITH THAT
GOD CAN PERFORM MIRACLES.
00:38:38.71\00:38:45.39
>> WE ALSO POINT OUT, AS REAL
AS THIS SPIRITUAL BATTLE IS,
00:38:45.39\00:38:49.52
ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU GET
INVOLVED IN INTERCESSORY
00:38:49.52\00:38:55.13
PRAYER MINISTRY, YOU ARE
PUTTING YOURSELF -- MAKING
00:38:55.13\00:38:58.33
YOURSELF A TARGET. WE
NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT
00:38:58.33\00:39:00.77
IT'S NOT A PROBLEM TO BE A
TARGET BECAUSE WE ARE SOMEONE
00:39:00.77\00:39:06.01
SOMEONE INTIMATELY ABOVE
AND MORE POWERFUL THAN THE ENEMY
00:39:06.01\00:39:10.01
AGAINST US. >> IF
WE ARE FILLED WITH THE
00:39:10.01\00:39:12.98
HOLY SPIRIT
BECAUSE GREATER IS HE.
00:39:12.98\00:39:16.62
WE DON'T WANT TO DISCOURAGE
SOMEONE BY SAYING THIS.
00:39:16.62\00:39:22.02
IT'S ALL ABOUT
COMING CLOSER TO THE LORD.
00:39:22.02\00:39:25.89
WE ALSO -- >>
THAT'S WHY WE HAVE THIS.
00:39:25.89\00:39:30.43
WE GO BACK
EPHESIANS. IF WE HAVE CHRIST'S
00:39:30.43\00:39:36.64
RIGHTEOUSNESS. >>
LET'S GO THROUGH THIS
00:39:36.64\00:39:38.07
QUICKLY. I THINK
THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL.
00:39:38.07\00:39:41.38
>> EPHESIAN 6 IS
ANOTHER FORM OF TRUE RELIGION.
00:39:41.38\00:39:43.45
IT GIVES US OUR
OFFENSE AND OUR DEFENSE.
00:39:43.45\00:39:47.75
SO WE HAVE THE ARMOR OF
GOD. IT TELLS US WE WRESTLE NOT
00:39:47.75\00:39:51.32
AGAINST FLESH AND BLOOD, TAKE
UNTO THE AR MORE OF GOD SO YOU
00:39:51.32\00:39:58.39
CAN UNDERSTAND
HAVING ALL TO STAND.
00:39:58.39\00:40:00.16
IT TELLS US WE CAN STAND
ONCE WE HAVE THE ARMOR OF GOD.
00:40:00.16\00:40:04.80
>> SPEAKING TO EVERYONE.
HE IS ENCOURAGING SAYING STAND
00:40:04.80\00:40:08.20
THEREFORE. STAND.
00:40:08.20\00:40:11.11
HAVING THEREFORE YOUR
LIONSKIRT AND THE BREAST PLATE
00:40:11.11\00:40:17.48
AND YOUR FEET SHOD AND TAKING
THE SHIELD OF FAITH YOU SHOULD
00:40:17.48\00:40:20.88
BE ABLE TO QUENCH ALL THE
FIERY DARTS OF THE WICKED.
00:40:20.88\00:40:25.02
TAKE THE HEMET OF SALVATION
AND THE SPIRIT WHICH IS THE
00:40:25.02\00:40:27.89
WORD OF GOD. THIS
IS THE VERSE WE FORGET.
00:40:27.89\00:40:31.33
PRAYING WITH ALL SUBPOENALY
INDICATION AND WATCHING WITH
00:40:31.33\00:40:34.83
ALL PERSEVERANCE
FOR ALL THE SAINTS.
00:40:34.83\00:40:40.84
WE FORGET ABOUT THE ALL PRAYER.
00:40:40.84\00:40:44.04
ASKING US TO CONTINUE IN PRAYER.
00:40:44.04\00:40:50.05
IF YOU ARER CONSTANTLY
INTERCEDING FOR SOMEONE ELSE,
00:40:50.05\00:40:52.95
IT'S A DEFENSE. ONE
OF THE THINGS WE WERE
00:40:52.95\00:40:55.82
LEARNING WE DON'T LEARN TO
PUSH BACK FAITHEN HE ATTACKS
00:40:55.82\00:40:59.15
US AND CAUSES US TO
FALL. WHAT DO WE DO, WE COWER?
00:40:59.15\00:41:03.59
IF WE WOULD TAKE THE MIND,
THAT EVERY TIME SATAN ATTACKS
00:41:03.59\00:41:07.73
US, WE COUNTERATTACK.
ALL OF A SUDDEN HIS ATTACKS
00:41:07.73\00:41:10.57
WILL COME LESS
OFTEN, LESS FREQUENTLY.
00:41:10.57\00:41:13.27
LET'S SAY YOU HAVE A PROBLEM
WITH ANGER, YOU GET ANGRY WHEN
00:41:13.27\00:41:19.87
SOMEBODY ELSE SOMETHING.
YOU GET AINGE ARE YOU AND YOU
00:41:19.87\00:41:22.58
FEEL BAD. BUT
WHAT IF YOU INSTEAD
00:41:22.58\00:41:25.48
DECIDED EVERY TIME I GET
ANGRY, AFTER I GET ANGRY, I'LL
00:41:25.48\00:41:29.55
PRAY FOR MY MOM
WHO IS NOT DOING WELL.
00:41:29.55\00:41:33.32
MY MOM WHO IS NOT IN THE CHURCH.
00:41:33.32\00:41:35.42
>> FOR OTHER PEOPLE. >>
OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE ANGER
00:41:35.42\00:41:38.09
ISSUES. YOU
PICK A PRAYER TARGET.
00:41:38.09\00:41:40.60
SO EVERY TIME YOU GET ATTACKED
BY SATAN, YOU DON'T JUST FALL
00:41:40.60\00:41:44.47
DOWN, YOU SAY, OKAY,
I'LL ATTACK SOMETHING BACK.
00:41:44.47\00:41:47.44
YOU BEGIN INTERCEDING
IMMEDIATELY AFTER YOU
HAVE-úFALLEN FOR SOMEBODY ELSE
00:41:47.44\00:41:51.14
WHO IS IN DANGER AND NEEDS
PRAYER. WHAT HAPPENS SATAN IS
00:41:51.14\00:41:55.48
LIKE EVERY TIME I
PUSH, I GET PUSHED BACK.
00:41:55.48\00:41:57.98
WE CAN'T BE AFRAID TO DO
THAT. >> I THINK OF JOB, WHEN
00:41:57.98\00:42:01.62
EVERYTHING TURNED AROUND
IS WHEN HE STARTED INTERCEDING
00:42:01.62\00:42:04.19
FOR HIS FRIENDS.
THAT'S WHEN HE GOT THE DOUBLE
00:42:04.19\00:42:07.06
PORTION BLESSING. I
TELL PEOPLE IF YOU HAVE A
00:42:07.06\00:42:13.03
PROBLEM IN YOUR MARRIAGE, ONE
OF THE GREATER THINGS CAN YOU
00:42:13.03\00:42:15.93
DO IS INTERCEDE FOR
SOMEBODY ELSE HAVING A PROBLEM.
00:42:15.93\00:42:19.90
WHATEVER YOUR ISSUE IS
INTERCEDES FOR OTHER IN THE
00:42:19.90\00:42:23.14
SAME POSITION. >> I
WANTED TO, SINCE WE ARE
00:42:23.14\00:42:27.11
TALKING ABOUT INTERCESSION,
PRAYING FOR PEOPLE AND CITIES
00:42:27.11\00:42:30.11
AND ALL OF THOSE THINGS.
I WANT TO BRING UP ONE POINT
00:42:30.11\00:42:35.52
BECAUSE I THINK IT'S ALWAYS A
DANGER FOR ANYTHING TO DO WITH
00:42:35.52\00:42:41.32
PRAYER THAT YOU END UP KIND
OF MAKING A LAUNDRY LIST FOR GOD
00:42:41.32\00:42:45.26
AND KIND OF JUST GOING TO
HIM LIKE A VENDING MACHINE.
00:42:45.26\00:42:50.90
JUST REALLY QUICK. I
WANT TO SHARE A PRINCIPLE.
00:42:50.90\00:42:54.30
I'LL MENTION THE SCRIPTURES
BUT WE DON'T HAVE TO GO THERE
00:42:54.30\00:42:57.67
BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE VERY LONG.
00:42:57.67\00:43:00.74
A PRINCIPLE WE REFER TO AS
THE HEAD ROLE OR VANTAGE POINT.
00:43:00.74\00:43:05.61
LIKE WHEN YOU THINK
ABOUT PHYSICAL BATTLE.
00:43:05.61\00:43:10.32
ESPECIALLY LIKE BACK IN THE
DARK AGES, THEY USED BOWS AND
00:43:10.32\00:43:15.22
ARROWS AND SWORDS. IT
WAS VERY, VERY IMPORTANT TO
00:43:15.22\00:43:17.79
BE ON THE HIGHER
GROUND. IT STILL IS TODAY, EVEN.
00:43:17.79\00:43:21.26
BECAUSE YOU CAN SEE
EVERYTHING FROM THERE.
00:43:21.26\00:43:23.60
YOU CAN SEE WHERE YOUR ENEMIES
ARE AND HOW THE BATTLE IS
00:43:23.60\00:43:26.74
GOING. A GENERAL
WOULD USUALLY BE UP
00:43:26.74\00:43:29.77
ON A HILL SO HE CAN KNOW WHERE
TO SEND TROOPS OUT THERE AND
00:43:29.77\00:43:33.41
THAT KIND OF THING.
YOU HAVE THIS PRINCIPLE IN
00:43:33.41\00:43:39.68
SCRIPTURE ILLUSTRATED
WHERE YOU SEE, FOR EXAMPLE, IN
00:43:39.68\00:43:44.69
EXODUS CHAPTER 24, MOSES.
HE WENT UP ON THE MOUNTAIN
00:43:44.69\00:43:48.86
WITH GOD, RIGHT? WHAT
THAT WAS, GOING UP ON THE
00:43:48.86\00:43:52.03
MOUNTAIN WITH GOD WAS BEING
IN GOD'S PRESENCE, CONNECTING,
00:43:52.03\00:43:57.10
BEING DIRECTLY WITH
GOD, CONNECTED WITH HIM.
00:43:57.10\00:44:00.57
THAT IS WHERE GOD SPOKE TO
HIM AND HELPED HIM LEAD ISRAEL.
00:44:00.57\00:44:06.37
IN MATTHEW 24, LUKE 6, LUKE
9, YOU KNOW, DIFFERENT PLACES IN
00:44:06.37\00:44:11.65
THE GOSPELS, YOU HAVE
JESUS GOING UP ON THE MOUNT OF
00:44:11.65\00:44:16.12
OLIVES OR ON A
HILL IT SAYS TO PRAY.
00:44:16.12\00:44:20.06
HE WOULD GO UP TO THE MOUNTAIN
TO CONNECT WITH GOD, THE
00:44:20.06\00:44:27.66
FATHER, TO BE IN HIS PRESENCE,
TO BE CONNECTED WITH HIM.
00:44:27.66\00:44:32.27
SO THIS IS AN
IMPORTANT PRINCIPLE.
00:44:32.27\00:44:34.04
IF YOU WANT TO SPIRITUALLY GET
THE VANTAGE, THE HIGH VANTAGE
00:44:34.04\00:44:41.24
POINT WHERE GOD CAN SHOW
YOU WHAT NEED TO HAPPEN, HE CAN
00:44:41.24\00:44:44.38
SHOW YOU WHERE HE WANTS HIS
TROOPS TO GO AND WHERE SPECIAL
00:44:44.38\00:44:50.92
HELP AND SPECIAL PRAYER, WHERE
TO SHOOT YOUR ARROWS, SO TO
00:44:50.92\00:44:55.29
SPEAK. THEN YOU
GET ON THE MOUNTAIN
00:44:55.29\00:44:56.66
WITH HIM. SO WHEN
WE PRAY, IT'S NOT LIKE
00:44:56.66\00:45:00.23
A LAUNDRY LIST
WHERE HE DUMP STUFF ON GOD
00:45:00.23\00:45:03.60
YOU HAVE TO
CONNECT WITH GOD FIRST.
00:45:03.60\00:45:06.10
YOU HAVE TO CONNECT FIRST
SO THAT WHEN YOU ARE CONNECTED
00:45:06.10\00:45:09.34
WITH HIM, HE CAN SPEAK TO
YOU, HE CAN IMPRESS YOU WHAT TO
00:45:09.34\00:45:12.91
PRAY FOR, HOW TO
PRAY. JUST REALLY QUICK.
00:45:12.91\00:45:16.91
ONE VERSE JUST TO GO
ALONG WITH THIS, THAT I WANT TO
00:45:16.91\00:45:20.78
SHARE JOHN CHAPTER
15. VERSES 5 AND 7.
00:45:20.78\00:45:29.32
IT'S JUST SORT OF AN
ILLUSTRATION EVER THE SAME
00:45:29.32\00:45:31.93
PRINCIPLE. VERSE
5, JOHN 15, VERSE FIVE
00:45:31.93\00:45:35.26
SAYS I'M THE VINE,
YOU ARE THE BRADGES.
00:45:35.26\00:45:38.50
HE WHO ABIDES IN ME AND I
IN HIM, WITHOUT ME YOU CAN DO
00:45:38.50\00:45:45.71
NOTHING. FIRST OF
ALL, VERSE 5, HE IS
00:45:45.71\00:45:48.74
THE VINE, WE ARE THE BRANCHES.
THAT MEANS WE ARE CONNECTED
00:45:48.74\00:45:51.78
WITH HIM, RIGHT? WE
HAVE TO BE CONNECTED TO
00:45:51.78\00:45:54.18
CHRIST. VERSE 7,
IMMEDIATELY AFTER
00:45:54.18\00:45:57.82
THIS IDEA OF BEING CONNECTED
WITH HIM, VERSE 7 SAYS, IF YOU
00:45:57.82\00:46:02.46
ABIDE IN ME AND MY WORDS ABIDE
IN YOU YOU WILL ASK WHAT YOU
00:46:02.46\00:46:06.70
DESIRE AND IT
SHALL BE DONE FOR YOU.
00:46:06.70\00:46:11.93
THEN YOU CAN ASK THE THINGS
IN PRAYER.-YOU GET ON THE HILL
00:46:11.93\00:46:14.97
FIRST. YOU GET THE VANTAGE
POINT FIRST OVER THE ENEMY.
00:46:14.97\00:46:18.97
ONCE YOU ARE CONNECTED WITH
GOD THAT'S WHEN YOU THINK IT
00:46:18.97\00:46:23.68
TO HIM. YOU
CAN'T DUMP ALL OF YOUR
00:46:23.68\00:46:25.61
STUFF ON HIM. >>
SOMETHING ELSE WE HAVE TO
00:46:25.61\00:46:29.72
REMEMBER, WE DON'T KNOW HOW WE
AUTO TO PRAY -- OUGHT TO PRAY.
00:46:29.72\00:46:35.02
I START MY PRAYERS OR TRY
TO REMEMBER -- I SHOULDN'T SAY
00:46:35.02\00:46:38.33
ALWAYS. I TRY TO
REMEMBER TO ASK THE
00:46:38.33\00:46:41.16
LORD TO -- FILLED FRESH
WITH THE SPIRIT, LET THE SPIRIT
00:46:41.16\00:46:46.80
GUIDE MY PRAYERS
WHEN I'M PRAYING.
00:46:46.80\00:46:48.97
SOMETIMES YOU START PRAYING,
YOU THINK YOU KNOW WHAT YOU
00:46:48.97\00:46:51.44
SHOULD BE PRAYING FOR AND
SUDDENLY THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL
00:46:51.44\00:46:54.08
TAKE YOU IN A
TOTALLY DIFFERENT DIRECTION.
00:46:54.08\00:46:57.08
>> ONE OF THE THINGS IS THAT
IN MATHEAU CHAPTER 4, ON THE
00:46:57.08\00:47:00.82
FLIP SIDE, IT'S A
TEMPTATION OF JESUS CHRIST.
00:47:00.82\00:47:04.55
IN CHAPTER 4, VERSE 8, AGAIN
THE DEVIL TAKEth HIM UP INTO
00:47:04.55\00:47:09.09
AN EXCEEDING HIGH MOUNTAINS
AND SHOWS HIM ALL THE KINGDOMS
00:47:09.09\00:47:11.86
OF THE WORLD AND
THE GLORY OF THEM.
00:47:11.86\00:47:14.20
SO SATAN IS TAKING CHRIST TO
HIS VANTAGE POINT TO HIS HIGH
00:47:14.20\00:47:19.73
PLACE WHERE HE CAN SHW HIM
ALL OF HIS TERRITORY UNDER HIS
00:47:19.73\00:47:23.44
CONTROL. JESUS
DIDN'T DISPUTE IT WAS
00:47:23.44\00:47:26.51
SATAN'S TO GIVE
WHEN HE OFFERED IT.
00:47:26.51\00:47:27.88
BUT WHAT WAS THE CASE? HE
SAID, I WILL GIVE IT TO YOU
00:47:27.88\00:47:31.11
IF YOU WORSHIP ME. LY
GIVE YOU THIS TERRITORY IF
00:47:31.11\00:47:35.55
YOU WORSHIP ME.
CHRIST'S RESPONSE WAS NO.
00:47:35.55\00:47:40.36
CHRIST AT THE
CROSS, HE SWITCHED IT.
00:47:40.36\00:47:42.22
HE TOOK OVER
SATE. 'S VANTAGE POINT.
00:47:42.22\00:47:45.63
HE CAST HIM DOWN.
IT'S LIKE KING OF THE HILL.
00:47:45.63\00:47:48.76
SATIN WAS A TOP,
HE OWN THE EARTH.
00:47:48.76\00:47:50.73
AT THE CROSS HE
HAD BEEN CAST OUT.
00:47:50.73\00:47:54.27
ALL ANGELIC BEINGS HAD
BEEN VINCEED THAT SATE.
00:47:54.27\00:47:57.21
WAS A LIAR AND DISEEFER AND
NOTHING GOOD COULD COME FROM
00:47:57.21\00:48:01.71
HIS RULERSHIP.
CHRIST IS NOW THE TOP OF THE
00:48:01.71\00:48:04.11
MOUNTAINS. WHEN WE
GET INTO HIS PRESENCE
00:48:04.11\00:48:07.95
THROUGH WORSHIP BECAUSE SATAN
WANTED CHRIST TO WORSHIP HIM.
00:48:07.95\00:48:11.12
NOW IT'S CHRIST'S TERRITORY.
WHEN WE WORSHIP CHRIST, CHRIST
00:48:11.12\00:48:14.99
GIVES IT TO US. HE
WANTS TO RECLAIM AS MUCH
00:48:14.99\00:48:17.63
TERRITORY FROM
SATAN AS HE POSSIBLY CAN.
00:48:17.63\00:48:21.03
THE WAY WE ENTER IN IS NOT
BY ASKING GOD FOR THE TERRITORY
00:48:21.03\00:48:25.97
BUT BY ENTERING INTO HIS
PRESENCE AND SEEING THE WAY
00:48:25.97\00:48:29.20
THAT HE SEES. AT
TIMES WE ARE AT THIS LOW
00:48:29.20\00:48:32.01
LEVEL WHEN WE CAN'T
SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING.
00:48:32.01\00:48:34.64
WHEN WE ENTER INTO GOD'S
PRESENCE, HE ALLOWS US TO SEE
00:48:34.64\00:48:38.55
IT IN A DIFFERENT WAY.
ANOTHER THING, WE OFTENTIMES
00:48:38.55\00:48:41.95
SEE GOD AS WHEN WE ASK HIM
FOR THINGS AS IF HE DOESN'T
00:48:41.95\00:48:45.09
ALREADY KNOW WHAT WE
NEED. WHEN WE LOOK AT HIM AS A
00:48:45.09\00:48:49.39
FATHER, WOULD A FATHER
WITHHOLD GOOD THINGS FROM HIS
00:48:49.39\00:48:53.76
SON? YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY, DAD,
00:48:53.76\00:48:56.20
GIVE ME FOOD. OR,
DAD, TAKE CARE OF ME.
00:48:56.20\00:48:59.67
WHEN WE ENTER AND SPEND
TIME WITH HIM AS A FATHER, HE IS
00:48:59.67\00:49:03.84
ALREADY GOING TO
PROVIDE OUR DAILY NEEDS.
00:49:03.84\00:49:07.14
YES, WE CAN ASK AND ASK HIM
TO INTERCEDE ON BEHALF OF OTHER
00:49:07.14\00:49:11.28
PEOPLE. TO THINK
THAT GOD DOESN'T KNOW
00:49:11.28\00:49:13.82
WHAT OUR DIFFERENT ARE AND
HE DOESN'T DESIRE TO HEAL US IN
00:49:13.82\00:49:18.62
THOSE AREAS, I
MEAN, THAT'S NOT TRUE.
00:49:18.62\00:49:21.02
BECAUSE HE DOES. HE
DOES SO JUST BY US SPENDING
00:49:21.02\00:49:24.16
THAT TIME WITH HIM. >>
I THINK ALSO WHERE HE SAYS
00:49:24.16\00:49:28.16
COME TO ME AND I WILL ANSWER
YOU AND SHOW MIGHTY THINGS
00:49:28.16\00:49:31.97
THAT YOU DO NOT KNOW. >> YES.
00:49:31.97\00:49:34.90
>> THIS IS WHERE WE ARE AT A
LOSS IF WE ARE NOT DIRECTED BY
00:49:34.90\00:49:38.44
HIS SPIRIT. YOU
HAVE SOMETHING ON YOUR
00:49:38.44\00:49:41.28
MIND. >> I WANTED TO ALSO ADD TO
00:49:41.28\00:49:44.85
THAT, YOU KNOW HOW WE
WERE CONNECTING THE END TIMES
00:49:44.85\00:49:52.85
SPIRITUAL BABYLON WITH OUR
SATAN IS A TRAFFIC, HE BUYS
00:49:52.85\00:49:56.69
AND SELLS.
WHETHER IT'S THROUGH SEX
00:49:56.69\00:49:59.29
TRAFFICKING OR THROUGH
ENTERTAINMENT, THROUGH DRUGS,
00:49:59.29\00:50:03.63
RICHES, WHATEVER. I
WANTED TO LOOK AT A COUPLE
00:50:03.63\00:50:09.60
OF THINGS REALLY QUICKLY THAT
I WANTED TO ADD TO EVERYTHING
00:50:09.60\00:50:15.18
WE ARE TALKING ABOUT.
REVELATION 18 VERSUS 11-13.
00:50:15.18\00:50:24.89
BASICALLY GOES THROUGH WHAT
THAT SYSTEM, THAT BABYLONIAN
00:50:24.89\00:50:28.66
SYSTEM AT THE END WAS GUILTY
OF, OR SOME OF THE THINGS.
00:50:28.66\00:50:32.19
AND THE MER CHAJTS OF THE
EARTH WILL WEEP AND MOURN OVER
00:50:32.19\00:50:35.53
HER, FOR NO ONE WILL BUY THE
MERCHANDISE ANYMORE, THE MCHED
00:50:35.53\00:50:40.67
OF GOLD AND SILVER, FINE
LINEN, PURPLE, SILK, EVERY
00:50:40.67\00:50:47.78
CITRON WOOD, EVERY IVORY,
EVERY OBJECT, BRONZE, IRON,
00:50:47.78\00:50:53.92
MARSHALL AND CINNAMON AND
INTENSE, FRAG RANTS OIL AND
00:50:53.92\00:50:59.42
FRANKINCENSE.
LISTEN TO THE END OF THIS
00:50:59.42\00:51:01.32
VERSE. WINE AND
OIL, WHEAT, CATTLE
00:51:01.32\00:51:05.66
AND SHEEP, HORSES AND CHARIOTS
AND BODIES AND SOULS AS MEN.
00:51:05.66\00:51:12.80
>> I NEVER NOTICED THAT BEFORE.
00:51:12.80\00:51:15.50
THIS IS A PART OF THE
BABYLONIAN SYSTEM THAT THE
00:51:15.50\00:51:19.54
ENEMY IS USING AGAINST
GOD AND HIS PEOPLE IN THE END.
00:51:19.54\00:51:23.11
>> THEY ARE
TRAFFICKING IN MERCHANDISE.
00:51:23.11\00:51:26.35
>> THEY ARE ALL LURCHED IN
TOGETHER WITH ALL THE OTHER
00:51:26.35\00:51:28.75
OBJECTS. THE
BODIES AND SOULS OF MEN
00:51:28.75\00:51:30.49
ARE TREATED AS THINGS
BY THE ENEMY'S KINGDOM.
00:51:30.49\00:51:37.56
I WANTED TO SAY OR ADD IN
RESPONSE TO THIS SYSTEM AND
00:51:37.56\00:51:44.17
WHAT WE ARE AGAINST AS
GOD'S PEOPLE, IS THAT A VERSE IN
00:51:44.17\00:51:50.01
JEER MAYA -- I WOULD ENCOURAGE
ANY OF THE PEOPLE WATCHING TO
00:51:50.01\00:51:53.94
READ JEREMIAH CHAPTER 50
