WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.000 It's good to have you here with us again. May 00:00:02.000 --> 00:00:03.940 God bless your life and we thank you for connecting 00:00:03.940 --> 00:00:38.960 with us. After 2020, after COVID, the church 00:00:38.960 --> 00:00:42.380 has not been the same. The body of Christ has 00:00:42.380 --> 00:00:46.219 not been the same. The Lord Himself did a hard 00:00:46.219 --> 00:00:52.079 reset to the entire world. And then that hard 00:00:52.079 --> 00:00:55.609 reset we needed to realign to what it is that 00:00:55.609 --> 00:01:02.670 he wanted to do. And I believe that the churches 00:01:02.670 --> 00:01:08.430 are still trying to find their way. Because there's 00:01:08.430 --> 00:01:12.640 something in particular that's happening. Holy 00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:17.799 Spirit is retaking the church. And so he is breaking 00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:25.519 systems, paradigms, systems that are religious, 00:01:25.859 --> 00:01:30.519 systems of men. So now he himself is taking initiative 00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:37.819 in preparation of the bride. And we are in that 00:01:37.819 --> 00:01:41.920 boat. And so we need to be very aware of what's 00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:46.579 going on. We need to be understood of what's 00:01:46.579 --> 00:01:53.180 happening. in our nation, in our city, what's 00:01:53.180 --> 00:01:59.000 happening globally. The Lord is speaking continually. 00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:04.260 And I really believe that in this season, He 00:02:04.260 --> 00:02:11.120 is leading the church to a place of great maturity. 00:02:11.259 --> 00:02:14.960 And in that place of maturity, we're going to 00:02:14.960 --> 00:02:19.560 have to face certain things. We're going to have 00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:27.000 to be real and evaluate our own lives. I believe 00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:32.939 that we can't continue doing things the way we 00:02:32.939 --> 00:02:35.159 have. You can't continue in your marriage the 00:02:35.159 --> 00:02:36.900 way you have for those of you that are married 00:02:36.900 --> 00:02:42.340 here. Forgot for a moment I'm in a young adults 00:02:42.340 --> 00:02:49.270 conference. But you can't continue living your 00:02:49.270 --> 00:02:54.629 life the way that you have. This season demands 00:02:54.629 --> 00:02:58.750 change. Let me repeat that. This season demands 00:02:58.750 --> 00:03:05.090 change. And because it demands change, I'll give 00:03:05.090 --> 00:03:09.650 you wisdom. Do you know what is the fastest way 00:03:09.650 --> 00:03:17.580 and the less? This painful way for change is 00:03:17.580 --> 00:03:22.819 when you're yielded to Holy Spirit. The more 00:03:22.819 --> 00:03:28.819 you learn to yield to Him, the faster you'll 00:03:28.819 --> 00:03:34.860 see your walk will be. And processes do not become... 00:03:34.860 --> 00:03:43.080 in your mind processes. Because you won't see 00:03:43.080 --> 00:03:47.729 it as a desert. You'll see it as a place the 00:03:47.729 --> 00:03:50.469 Lord is preparing a garden that's going to rise 00:03:50.469 --> 00:03:52.810 up from within all of the things you're going 00:03:52.810 --> 00:03:58.949 through. And so there needs to be a shift, a 00:03:58.949 --> 00:04:04.009 change of perspective. And I believe that's what 00:04:04.009 --> 00:04:08.310 Holy Spirit has been doing. With our house, that's 00:04:08.310 --> 00:04:19.889 what He's been doing. say and humbly say that 00:04:19.889 --> 00:04:26.029 in this last year, by His grace, I've grown more 00:04:26.029 --> 00:04:31.870 in my personal walk with the Lord than in the 00:04:31.870 --> 00:04:34.490 last 27 years that I've been walking with the 00:04:34.490 --> 00:04:40.550 Lord. So today I want to give wisdom towards 00:04:40.550 --> 00:04:49.870 what the Lord has been doing, because my prayer 00:04:49.870 --> 00:05:03.029 is that I turn 50. I already turned 50. I turned 00:05:03.029 --> 00:05:07.170 50. I'm gonna turn 51. But this is my prayer. 00:05:08.100 --> 00:05:10.519 That you don't have to get to your 50 to see 00:05:10.519 --> 00:05:12.540 that type of transformation for your own person. 00:05:15.699 --> 00:05:20.740 That you in your own life, in this walk with 00:05:20.740 --> 00:05:24.459 the Lord, you can lean in on fathers, and you 00:05:24.459 --> 00:05:29.079 can grab hold of the wisdom, and apply the truth 00:05:29.079 --> 00:05:34.160 of God in your life, and that God can fulfill 00:05:34.160 --> 00:05:38.480 in your life. What a normal person would take 00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:45.860 10 years, he can do it in two years. Because 00:05:45.860 --> 00:05:48.259 in one year, he did what he hadn't done or what 00:05:48.259 --> 00:05:55.959 I haven't experienced in 27 years. So I believe 00:05:55.959 --> 00:06:01.540 that there's a time of alignment But as we go 00:06:01.540 --> 00:06:03.639 into this message, I need you to understand that 00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:11.180 it requires humble hearts Say with me humble 00:06:11.180 --> 00:06:16.060 hearts Unfortunately, this generation is gifted 00:06:16.060 --> 00:06:18.220 with a lot of things. It's fortunate, but it's 00:06:18.220 --> 00:06:26.319 unfortunate at the same time Your greatest strength 00:06:26.319 --> 00:06:34.149 will be your humility. Seriously, the quicker 00:06:34.149 --> 00:06:39.790 you learn to go low, and the more that you approach 00:06:39.790 --> 00:06:47.050 someone or something with humbleness, you'll 00:06:47.050 --> 00:06:52.189 be able to appropriate of that wisdom. Because 00:06:52.189 --> 00:06:56.529 there's a people not here, not you guys. It's 00:06:56.529 --> 00:07:02.040 over there in Great Britain. that there's a lot 00:07:02.040 --> 00:07:08.920 of pride. Again, it's not you guys. Let me get 00:07:08.920 --> 00:07:12.740 in the message. So I believe that as a body, 00:07:14.459 --> 00:07:17.980 even as leaders, Holy Spirit has been leading 00:07:17.980 --> 00:07:24.500 us to a place where He's unveiling. He's removing 00:07:24.500 --> 00:07:31.040 the veil. Let's lay a foundation. When Christ 00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:34.519 died, scripture says that the veil in the temple 00:07:34.519 --> 00:07:39.879 was ripped. And then Paul writes in 2 Corinthians 00:07:39.879 --> 00:07:48.300 chapter 3, in verse 16, J .C. touched it earlier. 00:07:50.459 --> 00:07:52.920 Go there real quick, 2 Corinthians 3, 16, just 00:07:52.920 --> 00:07:58.500 to lay a foundation. Because it's going to take... 00:07:58.509 --> 00:08:03.509 humility to receive this message, but I could 00:08:03.509 --> 00:08:08.370 assure you that when you leave from this place, 00:08:08.769 --> 00:08:13.550 something changed in your life. Not because of 00:08:13.550 --> 00:08:16.569 me, not because of my preaching, but because 00:08:16.569 --> 00:08:23.209 Holy Spirit is so involved in transforming your 00:08:23.209 --> 00:08:27.069 life. In John, in 2 Corinthians 3, 3 verse 16 00:08:27.069 --> 00:08:31.649 says, but when one turns to the Lord, the veil 00:08:31.649 --> 00:08:38.690 is removed. And verse 17 is key because it says, 00:08:38.870 --> 00:08:41.690 now the Lord of what he's speaking of in verse 00:08:41.690 --> 00:08:50.549 16. He says, when one turns to the Lord, the 00:08:50.549 --> 00:08:52.649 veil is removed. And now the Lord, that same 00:08:52.649 --> 00:09:01.639 Lord of what he's speaking about. Is the Spirit. 00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:06.580 Read verse 17. Now the Lord is the Spirit. And 00:09:06.580 --> 00:09:08.220 where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 00:09:10.919 --> 00:09:13.500 There's a better translation that actually, it's 00:09:13.500 --> 00:09:19.519 more tied to the original, and it says where 00:09:19.519 --> 00:09:25.610 the Spirit is Lord, then there's freedom. When 00:09:25.610 --> 00:09:30.049 the Spirit is Lord in your life, then you'll 00:09:30.049 --> 00:09:35.809 find freedom. Then verse 18 says, and we all 00:09:35.809 --> 00:09:42.690 with unveiled faces, beholding the glory of the 00:09:42.690 --> 00:09:45.009 Lord are being transformed into the same image 00:09:45.009 --> 00:09:47.090 from one degree of glory to another, for this 00:09:47.090 --> 00:10:00.289 comes from the Lord who is the Spirit. I'm going 00:10:00.289 --> 00:10:01.570 to submit this and then we're going to advance 00:10:01.570 --> 00:10:05.330 with something else, okay? The Lord is removing 00:10:05.330 --> 00:10:11.750 the veil from houses. Exposing. But at the same 00:10:11.750 --> 00:10:17.710 time, He desires to remove veils from your eyes. 00:10:17.870 --> 00:10:21.389 Pastor, I don't have a veil. Well, culture gives 00:10:21.389 --> 00:10:25.750 you a veil. Where you come from, your background 00:10:25.750 --> 00:10:30.970 gives you a veil. The fact that you come from 00:10:30.970 --> 00:10:33.690 generations that came from religion, religion 00:10:33.690 --> 00:10:41.860 will always place a veil. And what does the veil 00:10:41.860 --> 00:10:47.379 do? What is the purpose of a veil? It's to conceal 00:10:47.379 --> 00:10:51.259 something that's on the other side. That you 00:10:51.259 --> 00:10:56.240 can't see it correctly. And you can't see it 00:10:56.240 --> 00:11:00.700 appropriately. This is why we need to understand 00:11:00.700 --> 00:11:07.139 all the prophets until Jesus were veiled. from 00:11:07.139 --> 00:11:11.039 one way or another. If you read before in verse... 00:11:10.970 --> 00:11:16.009 15 verse 14 verse 13, it says that Moses had 00:11:16.009 --> 00:11:24.789 a veil. 2 Corinthians. And we're not going to 00:11:24.789 --> 00:11:28.549 go in there because I don't have time. But the 00:11:28.549 --> 00:11:30.809 veil does not allow you to see the Lord correctly. 00:11:33.269 --> 00:11:35.570 And again, it requires humble people to understand 00:11:35.570 --> 00:11:41.620 you have been veiled. tell you that the Holy 00:11:41.620 --> 00:11:46.960 Spirit to those that He's removing the veil, 00:11:47.100 --> 00:11:52.600 it's not one veil. It's multiple veils. It's 00:11:52.600 --> 00:11:59.730 generational. Hundreds of years that man has 00:11:59.730 --> 00:12:06.330 been veiled one way or another. We see Jesus, 00:12:06.610 --> 00:12:12.090 we see God through religion. There's a veil. 00:12:12.309 --> 00:12:17.990 We see God through culture. There's a veil. God 00:12:17.990 --> 00:12:22.009 wants to rip these things off. That you can truly 00:12:22.009 --> 00:12:27.629 see God correct. The first time man was able 00:12:27.629 --> 00:12:32.779 to see God correctly. It was when Jesus was walking 00:12:32.779 --> 00:12:39.639 here on earth. Jesus was fully unveiled. And 00:12:39.639 --> 00:12:44.500 people were able to see God correctly. For this 00:12:44.500 --> 00:12:47.139 reason the religious leaders were upset with 00:12:47.139 --> 00:12:53.419 Jesus. Because they saw God from a different 00:12:53.419 --> 00:13:00.960 perspective. So this Jesus appears And he appears 00:13:00.960 --> 00:13:05.500 unveiled, and he starts to express the mind of 00:13:05.500 --> 00:13:12.019 God, correcting the religious system. He starts 00:13:12.019 --> 00:13:17.399 to tell them, you have heard it said, an eye 00:13:17.399 --> 00:13:22.360 for an eye. But I say, if they slap you on one 00:13:22.360 --> 00:13:27.509 cheek, give them the other one. You have heard 00:13:27.509 --> 00:13:35.169 it said that adultery is to sin sexually with 00:13:35.169 --> 00:13:43.710 another woman's wife. But I say to you that even 00:13:43.710 --> 00:13:48.970 if you look at a woman with lust, you've already 00:13:48.970 --> 00:13:56.700 sinned. So he was bringing correction. He was 00:13:56.700 --> 00:13:59.159 bringing correction to a people that saw God 00:13:59.159 --> 00:14:06.600 from a specific perspective. For the first time 00:14:06.600 --> 00:14:11.960 man was able to see how God truly loves. For 00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:15.080 the first time man was able to see how God was 00:14:15.080 --> 00:14:20.840 merciful. For the first time man was able to 00:14:20.840 --> 00:14:23.440 see the compassion of the heart of the Father. 00:14:27.139 --> 00:14:31.360 Jesus said in John 14, he said, you see me, you 00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:37.460 see my father. I'm the exact expression and the 00:14:37.460 --> 00:14:45.360 exact imprint of the father. So as you see me, 00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:49.460 you will see my father. I don't do anything that 00:14:49.460 --> 00:14:53.559 my father doesn't tell me to do. The words that 00:14:53.559 --> 00:14:55.620 I speak, I don't speak of my own. Come on, that's 00:14:55.620 --> 00:15:02.539 Bible. I speak what my father tells me. So man 00:15:02.539 --> 00:15:08.820 was able to see God correctly for the first time 00:15:08.820 --> 00:15:13.129 through a person named Jesus. Jesus was the only 00:15:13.129 --> 00:15:16.809 one, He is the exclusive person that is given 00:15:16.809 --> 00:15:24.340 to reveal the Father. And Holy Spirit has been 00:15:24.340 --> 00:15:30.039 given to us to reveal the Son. And I come to 00:15:30.039 --> 00:15:33.940 say, Church, there's an unveiling that's coming. 00:15:35.980 --> 00:15:42.840 He is leading us to a place to remove the veil. 00:15:43.100 --> 00:15:48.720 What for? 2 Corinthians 3, 18. What for? What 00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:53.879 is that unveiling needed for? One, to see God 00:15:53.879 --> 00:15:59.080 correctly. Two, that you can be transformed into 00:15:59.080 --> 00:16:06.440 the image of God. But we all with unveiled face, 00:16:06.600 --> 00:16:08.700 beholding in a mirror the glory of the Lord, 00:16:10.980 --> 00:16:17.350 are being transformed into the same image from 00:16:17.350 --> 00:16:21.629 glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the 00:16:21.629 --> 00:16:32.110 Lord. You and I were created, Jesus came, recreated 00:16:32.110 --> 00:16:37.509 us so that now we can become the image of Himself 00:16:37.509 --> 00:16:48.659 here on earth. This is the truth. Romans 8 -29. 00:16:48.740 --> 00:16:49.960 Look at the person next to you and tell them, 00:16:50.139 --> 00:16:53.899 do not get distracted. The pastor is going to 00:16:53.899 --> 00:16:57.360 go a little fast. And you don't want to lose 00:16:57.360 --> 00:17:01.320 what God is going to teach us. Through the life 00:17:01.320 --> 00:17:05.700 of the pastor. Romans 8 -29. But it says, for 00:17:05.700 --> 00:17:08.940 those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to 00:17:08.940 --> 00:17:12.380 what? To be conformed into what? The image of 00:17:12.380 --> 00:17:24.809 His Son. So you came, God called you, you tended 00:17:24.809 --> 00:17:28.349 to the call, and the very first thing I need 00:17:28.349 --> 00:17:32.170 you to understand is that there's an unveiling 00:17:32.170 --> 00:17:36.329 that's coming to your life now. The Lord wants 00:17:36.329 --> 00:17:40.069 you to see differently, and it's not because 00:17:40.069 --> 00:17:44.099 you're here in Burning Lamp. It's what's in His 00:17:44.099 --> 00:17:49.440 heart. This is what is His desire. He is working 00:17:49.440 --> 00:17:55.119 a work in the bride. So what does it look like 00:17:55.119 --> 00:18:00.900 to be unveiled? What happens when you allow Holy 00:18:00.900 --> 00:18:06.619 Spirit to work Himself in you? Because let me 00:18:06.619 --> 00:18:10.140 leave a few things clear. Holy Spirit is not 00:18:10.140 --> 00:18:15.299 here to help you accomplish your dreams. He's 00:18:15.299 --> 00:18:20.779 not here to make you famous. He's not here for 00:18:20.779 --> 00:18:25.400 you to obtain the things that you want. He is 00:18:25.400 --> 00:18:31.599 the helper. But He comes to help you fulfill 00:18:31.599 --> 00:18:38.119 the purpose. of God in your life. A veil is removed. 00:18:39.279 --> 00:18:44.440 We need to understand. Holy Spirit is here. And 00:18:44.440 --> 00:18:50.740 I need to also understand that Jesus Himself, 00:18:50.740 --> 00:18:55.799 He positioned you that He Himself now is fully 00:18:55.799 --> 00:19:02.099 in you. Say with me, God is in me. Through Holy 00:19:02.099 --> 00:19:07.160 Spirit, God is in you. So what does it look like 00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:12.319 to live unveil? Write this down, number one. 00:19:13.779 --> 00:19:19.859 As you walk becoming unveiled, the greatest purpose 00:19:19.859 --> 00:19:29.900 for you is to allow Holy Spirit to conform you 00:19:29.900 --> 00:19:32.799 into His image. Write this down, please. Your 00:19:32.799 --> 00:19:35.740 calling. Because some of you say, I don't have 00:19:35.740 --> 00:19:38.900 a calling. I don't know what my calling is. Can 00:19:38.900 --> 00:19:41.240 I have Romans 8 .29 again? This is your calling. 00:19:43.049 --> 00:19:47.450 Isaiah 29 is your calling to be conformed into 00:19:47.450 --> 00:19:51.930 the image of Christ. Your calling is not to be 00:19:51.930 --> 00:19:56.769 a pastor. That can be your gift. That can be 00:19:56.769 --> 00:20:01.349 the ministerial gift. Your calling is not to 00:20:01.349 --> 00:20:05.789 be an apostle. It's not to be a prophet. It's 00:20:05.789 --> 00:20:10.450 not to be a teacher or a businessman. You're 00:20:10.450 --> 00:20:14.420 calling. You are called. You have been called. 00:20:15.539 --> 00:20:19.000 You have been saved. You have been born again 00:20:19.000 --> 00:20:27.299 to be made into the image of Jesus Christ. This 00:20:27.299 --> 00:20:31.900 is the reason why He saved you more than to save 00:20:31.900 --> 00:20:39.140 souls. God the Father wants to duplicate the 00:20:39.140 --> 00:20:47.009 image of His Son in all of His sons. So number 00:20:47.009 --> 00:20:51.990 one, the reason why or the way that we live unveiled 00:20:51.990 --> 00:20:59.809 is to allow the Lord to establish the image of 00:20:59.809 --> 00:21:06.779 Christ. to be formed in us. Look at the person 00:21:06.779 --> 00:21:09.660 next to you and tell them, tell them, you're 00:21:09.660 --> 00:21:13.339 going to look more like Jesus. And you can tell 00:21:13.339 --> 00:21:15.599 them, and I'm going to look more like Jesus too. 00:21:16.880 --> 00:21:25.880 But you got to believe it. Having knowledge of 00:21:25.880 --> 00:21:29.539 the word, alone, does not transform you into 00:21:29.539 --> 00:21:34.599 the image of God. Coming to church on Sunday, 00:21:36.460 --> 00:21:41.420 or on a Saturday, or going to Bible study, or 00:21:41.420 --> 00:21:48.240 having your studies in a cafe, Walking with a 00:21:48.240 --> 00:21:52.519 Bible does not transform you into the image of 00:21:52.519 --> 00:21:56.900 Christ. What transforms you into the image of 00:21:56.900 --> 00:22:02.240 Christ is when that veil is removed. When you 00:22:02.240 --> 00:22:05.240 submit your life to the Lordship of Holy Spirit 00:22:05.240 --> 00:22:13.279 and you learn to walk in the Spirit, not in your 00:22:13.279 --> 00:22:20.390 strength, but yield it. With your hands off. 00:22:21.190 --> 00:22:30.170 He has full control. Uzzah touched the ark. And 00:22:30.170 --> 00:22:35.410 he died on that instant. Holy Spirit told me, 00:22:35.670 --> 00:22:42.099 it's time to remove your hands. Hands off. It's 00:22:42.099 --> 00:22:46.720 not your life, it's His life in you, working 00:22:46.720 --> 00:22:51.059 through you. Please say Amen. So is the image 00:22:51.059 --> 00:22:56.759 of Christ... being formed in you. When you live 00:22:56.759 --> 00:23:02.559 an unveiled life, you start to look more like 00:23:02.559 --> 00:23:06.200 Christ. You stop justifying your bad attitude. 00:23:08.460 --> 00:23:15.960 You stop justifying your laziness. Your boredom. 00:23:16.380 --> 00:23:21.400 Life becomes exciting. Because you are being 00:23:21.400 --> 00:23:26.859 transformed into the image of Jesus. And when 00:23:26.859 --> 00:23:31.759 people see you, they don't see you. They see 00:23:31.759 --> 00:23:36.819 the one who is being formed in you. And when 00:23:36.819 --> 00:23:41.480 people think of Christ, may they think of you. 00:23:44.109 --> 00:23:46.609 Are we here? I don't know if I'm getting too 00:23:46.609 --> 00:23:49.730 much in your face, but it's okay. I don't know 00:23:49.730 --> 00:23:51.670 when was the last time you had a father figure 00:23:51.670 --> 00:23:56.650 actually shake a few things in you. And I'm not 00:23:56.650 --> 00:24:02.069 saying I'm your father. So, just to be clear. 00:24:02.710 --> 00:24:09.829 Number two. What occurs when I live an unveiled 00:24:09.829 --> 00:24:13.750 life? Number two. We have the blessing of seeing 00:24:13.750 --> 00:24:19.930 the Lord correctly. I can see his heart for me. 00:24:22.450 --> 00:24:27.650 I have access to his mind for me. This is not 00:24:27.650 --> 00:24:32.430 just the word. This now is becoming flesh in 00:24:32.430 --> 00:24:37.609 me. I'm starting to believe the things that he's 00:24:37.609 --> 00:24:45.400 spoken of me. When I am unveiled, I'm able to 00:24:45.400 --> 00:24:50.480 forgive the way Jesus forgives. I'm able to have 00:24:50.480 --> 00:24:56.380 compassion the way Christ has compassion. I become 00:24:56.380 --> 00:25:04.259 merciful as Christ is merciful. The fruit is 00:25:04.259 --> 00:25:13.220 coming out. Number three, when I live unveiled, 00:25:13.380 --> 00:25:17.480 this is gonna mess with religion, but it's okay. 00:25:17.680 --> 00:25:23.619 We have access to the same exact life of Christ. 00:25:26.859 --> 00:25:33.160 To the same life that Jesus had here, I now have 00:25:33.160 --> 00:25:44.039 access to. I am as loved as He is loved. I am 00:25:44.039 --> 00:25:47.579 not less loved. I don't have to try to do things 00:25:47.579 --> 00:25:54.420 to be loved. He loves me. The Father loves me. 00:25:56.019 --> 00:26:00.960 exactly as he loves Jesus and you should shout 00:26:00.960 --> 00:26:03.059 an amen because religion is telling you to shut 00:26:03.059 --> 00:26:10.400 up you got to believe this word John 17 verse 00:26:10.400 --> 00:26:17.819 23 John 17 verse 23 says I in them and you and 00:26:17.819 --> 00:26:19.799 me and we're gonna get back to that that they 00:26:19.799 --> 00:26:23.349 may become perfectly one so that the world may 00:26:23.349 --> 00:26:27.269 know that you sent me and love them even as you 00:26:27.269 --> 00:26:42.589 loved me. You are as loved as He is loved. Stop 00:26:42.589 --> 00:26:46.589 looking for love in the wrong places. There's 00:26:46.589 --> 00:26:51.410 a man called Jesus who laid His life for you. 00:26:51.690 --> 00:26:55.529 Let me give you wisdom. The world does not know 00:26:55.529 --> 00:26:59.509 what love is. Because the world does not know 00:26:59.509 --> 00:27:04.549 Jesus. Love is found exclusively in the person 00:27:04.549 --> 00:27:12.390 of Christ. That's why the world can't love. Because 00:27:12.390 --> 00:27:15.450 they've never been loved. They don't know how 00:27:15.450 --> 00:27:18.789 to be loved. How can they give something that 00:27:18.789 --> 00:27:22.470 they themselves don't have? And that's why you 00:27:22.470 --> 00:27:30.170 can't be yoked to different yokes. Why? Because 00:27:30.170 --> 00:27:36.250 it is Christ in you, forming His love, establishing 00:27:36.250 --> 00:27:40.230 His love. You are as loved as Christ is loved. 00:27:42.029 --> 00:27:44.009 Whether you want to believe it or it's hard for 00:27:44.009 --> 00:27:48.109 you to believe it in this moment. Read the Word. 00:27:48.970 --> 00:27:52.970 Holy Spirit, unveil us. That we would know how 00:27:52.970 --> 00:28:00.109 loved we are. Not only that you would know that 00:28:00.109 --> 00:28:04.150 you love like He is loved, but Scripture says 00:28:04.150 --> 00:28:08.230 that you would be perfected in love. That's the 00:28:08.230 --> 00:28:12.509 working of the Spirit. Because the perfect love 00:28:12.509 --> 00:28:17.680 of God casts out the... cast out all fear. Something 00:28:17.680 --> 00:28:22.279 happens when you are walking on velo and you 00:28:22.279 --> 00:28:26.599 know how loved you are. Anxiety for some reason 00:28:26.599 --> 00:28:30.940 no longer is a part of you. Depression is no 00:28:30.940 --> 00:28:35.160 longer a part of you. Suicidal thoughts are no 00:28:35.160 --> 00:28:39.599 longer a part of you. Identity issues are no 00:28:39.599 --> 00:28:47.470 longer a part of you. Because you know who you 00:28:47.470 --> 00:28:51.750 are. You're being established in Christ. You're 00:28:51.750 --> 00:28:56.789 allowing Holy Spirit to do His work in you. Please 00:28:56.789 --> 00:29:02.269 say Amen. Pastor, I know I'm loved. Then live 00:29:02.269 --> 00:29:08.130 like you're loved. Don't throw theology at me. 00:29:09.190 --> 00:29:12.109 Let me see your fruit. Let me see you walk in 00:29:12.109 --> 00:29:16.490 love. Pastor, I know love. Then why are you still 00:29:16.490 --> 00:29:20.549 holding a grudge with your brother? Why are you 00:29:20.549 --> 00:29:24.529 still upset with your brother? Because love forgives 00:29:24.529 --> 00:29:29.130 all. Love believes all. Love sustains everything. 00:29:30.369 --> 00:29:32.890 This generation needs to learn how loved you 00:29:32.890 --> 00:29:38.029 are. Oh you guys are really quiet.
