WEBVTT 00:00:17.239 --> 00:00:19.640 So we were speaking about the situation with 00:00:19.640 --> 00:00:23.140 my daughter and my husband. And there goes Belen. 00:00:23.899 --> 00:00:28.640 No. No. I'm not going to do that. Because I don't 00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:32.579 feel like that's from God. Very proud about this. 00:00:34.920 --> 00:00:39.880 I don't perceive this is from God. With the spiritual 00:00:39.880 --> 00:00:46.490 vocabulary and everything. Very holy. But in 00:00:46.490 --> 00:00:48.250 reality, what was there is something that I didn't 00:00:48.250 --> 00:00:54.789 want to let go. But you know in the family that 00:00:54.789 --> 00:00:58.409 you argue with the family. I don't know if that 00:00:58.409 --> 00:01:02.170 happens to you. I don't know if that happens 00:01:02.170 --> 00:01:07.950 in Alaska. It does happen in my house. Sometimes 00:01:07.950 --> 00:01:12.730 we have some arguments. Sometimes we have things 00:01:12.730 --> 00:01:18.629 when we can see each other face to face. So I 00:01:18.629 --> 00:01:20.409 was there saying, I don't feel this is from God. 00:01:22.150 --> 00:01:25.629 And my husband, very wise. Okay, let's go and 00:01:25.629 --> 00:01:31.750 pray. So we continue talking. We continue talking 00:01:31.750 --> 00:01:37.670 about this. So we said, let's go and pray. We 00:01:37.670 --> 00:01:42.769 pray a very simple prayer. Very simple. And on 00:01:42.769 --> 00:01:51.810 the next day, when I woke up, I was able to see 00:01:51.810 --> 00:01:53.349 the point of view of the other people that were 00:01:53.349 --> 00:01:58.930 involved. And then I said, okay, Lord, I think 00:01:58.930 --> 00:02:08.689 I wasn't able to talk to them that day. But then 00:02:08.689 --> 00:02:12.460 later when I was able to talk to them, I told 00:02:12.460 --> 00:02:17.340 him, I changed my point of view. I said to him, 00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:21.439 okay, I'm gonna do it. I already captured what 00:02:21.439 --> 00:02:26.379 you're trying to say. But the moment you allow 00:02:26.379 --> 00:02:31.740 God to come into the picture. Look, God is in 00:02:31.740 --> 00:02:37.919 me personally, removing all traces of religion. 00:02:41.979 --> 00:02:49.939 You know that religion may destroy homes. And 00:02:49.939 --> 00:02:52.740 this topic, I'm very passionate about this topic. 00:02:54.300 --> 00:02:58.240 And it's about family. I don't know why I'm going 00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:04.080 that way. But what I perceive right now, that 00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:07.500 there are marriages here where they haven't been 00:03:07.500 --> 00:03:11.650 able to be in agreement. where there has been 00:03:11.650 --> 00:03:18.150 disagreements. But unfortunately, the old way 00:03:18.150 --> 00:03:23.150 of living, the way they used to live before, 00:03:26.889 --> 00:03:29.430 doesn't allow us to come and see the point of 00:03:29.430 --> 00:03:34.229 view of the other person. And that can involve 00:03:34.229 --> 00:03:38.949 so many things. And this makes me so passionate 00:03:38.949 --> 00:03:46.430 with children. With the youth. You know that 00:03:46.430 --> 00:03:50.909 I'm about having to correct. And that's why we're 00:03:50.909 --> 00:03:54.849 parents. And that's why we're here to educate. 00:03:56.969 --> 00:03:59.030 That's why we're here to form the character. 00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:07.740 But sometimes religion, it has blinded or seared 00:04:07.740 --> 00:04:12.199 our mind and our understanding. And we're very 00:04:12.199 --> 00:04:21.990 harsh with our own children. We don't even give 00:04:21.990 --> 00:04:25.170 them room for them to open to us and allow them 00:04:25.170 --> 00:04:31.189 to hear them. And see the verse that is coming 00:04:31.189 --> 00:04:39.810 to my mind. I don't have the exact verse. But 00:04:39.810 --> 00:04:45.990 it says not to bring our children to rest. Then 00:04:45.990 --> 00:04:48.870 you ask yourself, Why do I have a child that 00:04:48.870 --> 00:04:54.050 is in rebellion? Why is my child closing up? 00:04:57.930 --> 00:05:00.850 Why is it that my husband is not opening up himself 00:05:00.850 --> 00:05:06.069 to me anymore? Why my wife is not opening herself 00:05:06.069 --> 00:05:11.850 to me? Sometimes it's because we're so seared 00:05:11.850 --> 00:05:17.629 and we're so blinded. And that happened before 00:05:17.629 --> 00:05:23.730 Christ. That is the nature before Christ. I can 00:05:23.730 --> 00:05:27.589 assure you that if you go to the presence of 00:05:27.589 --> 00:05:32.050 God, the first thing God is gonna do with you, 00:05:33.430 --> 00:05:37.670 he's gonna incline his ears, and he's gonna hear 00:05:37.670 --> 00:05:45.439 whatever you have to say. It says draw closer 00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:52.740 to me and you know the verses that we have. The 00:05:52.740 --> 00:05:55.360 verse that says bring your burden before me. 00:05:56.740 --> 00:06:00.620 So many verses. And now I can't remember any. 00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:06.839 Where he says to carry his yoke that is light 00:06:06.839 --> 00:06:14.579 and easy. And when you go and you take your own 00:06:14.579 --> 00:06:19.939 yoke that is heavy, He's open to receive that 00:06:19.939 --> 00:06:27.319 burden. And many times our children, our spouses, 00:06:27.620 --> 00:06:34.699 or our wives, they have so many burdens. But 00:06:34.699 --> 00:06:37.839 our mentality, oh no, It shouldn't be this way 00:06:37.839 --> 00:06:44.839 in our house. You're closing the door. Please 00:06:44.839 --> 00:06:48.639 don't close the door to your children. Out there, 00:06:48.779 --> 00:06:58.459 there are many open doors. Many open doors. And 00:06:58.459 --> 00:07:01.100 I'm not speaking about. Just only young adults. 00:07:03.100 --> 00:07:08.040 This starts when you are a child. You want to 00:07:08.040 --> 00:07:12.759 restore family? Let's change the way we think. 00:07:20.980 --> 00:07:27.779 So it requires obedience. It requires dying to 00:07:27.779 --> 00:07:37.079 self. And let's go to Matthew 16, 24. Listen 00:07:37.079 --> 00:07:43.220 to your children. Listen to your wife. Your wife 00:07:43.220 --> 00:07:52.839 has so many things to tell you. It's not that 00:07:52.839 --> 00:07:54.879 she wants to be a pain reader and she's, you 00:07:54.879 --> 00:07:57.000 know, she's being an egg and she doesn't allow 00:07:57.000 --> 00:08:03.860 you to watch the game. It's not this old lady 00:08:03.860 --> 00:08:09.449 that doesn't allow me to watch Facebook. Turn 00:08:09.449 --> 00:08:15.269 off Facebook. And allow Jesus to renew your mind. 00:08:17.490 --> 00:08:19.410 And tell her, yes love, what do you want to tell 00:08:19.410 --> 00:08:25.410 me? I listen to you. Because that is Jesus renewing 00:08:25.410 --> 00:08:35.320 your mind. How many of us have heard about the 00:08:35.320 --> 00:08:41.480 family altar? And it's funny, because I don't 00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:44.759 know if this happened to you before, but this 00:08:44.759 --> 00:08:48.559 has happened to me in my house. And suddenly 00:08:48.559 --> 00:08:53.340 we're going to go and pray. If you want your 00:08:53.340 --> 00:08:57.580 child to pray with you, listen to him or her 00:08:57.580 --> 00:09:03.399 first. Don't punish them just because that's 00:09:03.399 --> 00:09:06.840 the way you think it should be. Listen before. 00:09:07.589 --> 00:09:15.990 This is part of the renewal of the mind. This 00:09:15.990 --> 00:09:22.029 is part of the understanding. Understand what 00:09:22.029 --> 00:09:28.610 my child is trying to tell me. Imagine if you 00:09:28.610 --> 00:09:33.470 open yourself as Jesus listens to you. And your 00:09:33.470 --> 00:09:39.480 child has to come to you. And that your child 00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:45.799 can trust you so much as a parent. He knows that 00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:51.019 you're not gonna come and judge. That he can 00:09:51.019 --> 00:09:56.000 feel such freedom. That he can tell you, mom, 00:09:57.220 --> 00:10:04.179 dad, I'm battling with pornography. What do you 00:10:04.179 --> 00:10:09.049 do in that case? If your child comes with something 00:10:09.049 --> 00:10:14.129 like this, I can assure you the first thing we 00:10:14.129 --> 00:10:18.809 do is because of that phone. It's because of 00:10:18.809 --> 00:10:26.519 your friends. And we blame everyone else. And 00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:30.440 what about us? Where was I that I didn't take 00:10:30.440 --> 00:10:35.100 care of you? Because we were raised with this 00:10:35.100 --> 00:10:40.360 mentality. Things are done this way and this 00:10:40.360 --> 00:10:45.340 is the way we're gonna do them. And if you're 00:10:45.340 --> 00:10:50.759 battling... with lost. I'm going to punish you. 00:10:52.360 --> 00:10:56.120 We won't allow that here. We won't allow sin. 00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:03.620 Of course we don't allow sin. for you not to 00:11:03.620 --> 00:11:08.000 allow sin. First, you have to deal with that. 00:11:10.460 --> 00:11:16.960 How does Jesus deal with your sins? How many 00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:18.419 times have you gone to the presence of the Lord? 00:11:18.580 --> 00:11:22.860 Lord, remove jealousy. Lord, remove envy from 00:11:22.860 --> 00:11:28.179 my heart. And men of God, I saw another woman. 00:11:29.870 --> 00:11:32.769 I saw some skirts and it caught my attention. 00:11:35.110 --> 00:11:40.629 How does the Messiah act with you? Elder was 00:11:40.629 --> 00:11:50.370 reading. How does he act? As Isaiah 53. He was 00:11:50.370 --> 00:11:55.210 despised amongst men. He was a man of sorrow. 00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:04.480 was over his body. That's how Jesus deals with 00:12:04.480 --> 00:12:10.179 your sin. The Messiah is not there to stone you. 00:12:12.720 --> 00:12:17.000 The Messiah, he confronted the Pharisees that 00:12:17.000 --> 00:12:21.700 they did have the mind to go and judge. That 00:12:21.700 --> 00:12:26.500 they had the finger to accuse. That was the nature 00:12:26.500 --> 00:12:32.500 of the first Adam. So when you encounter a situation 00:12:32.500 --> 00:12:39.179 with your children, that your spouse, you, your 00:12:39.179 --> 00:12:41.159 wife, or your husband, they have the ability 00:12:41.159 --> 00:12:48.159 to come and say, I saw this woman. I saw this 00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:50.139 man, and he called my attention what he told 00:12:50.139 --> 00:12:54.879 me. What's going to be your reaction? The first 00:12:54.879 --> 00:12:59.620 Adam? The first one that's going to stone, or 00:12:59.620 --> 00:13:05.179 the second atom, that is going to cast the stone 00:13:05.179 --> 00:13:08.580 the other way, that's going to be in the middle, 00:13:09.639 --> 00:13:11.240 and it's going to say, you know what? I'm here 00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:15.720 to listen to you. Let's pray about this together. 00:13:17.919 --> 00:13:20.139 The devil is not going to come. Love your heart. 00:13:24.659 --> 00:13:29.220 That is the sacrifice of the cross. That is the 00:13:29.220 --> 00:13:34.460 mind of the cross. The cross speaks love. Once 00:13:34.460 --> 00:13:42.820 and forever. The cross is as much for you, for 00:13:42.820 --> 00:13:46.919 your husband as well, for your wife, for your 00:13:46.919 --> 00:13:55.379 children. The cross is present. Let me tell you, 00:13:55.539 --> 00:13:57.620 if you incline your ear, you lend your ear to 00:13:57.620 --> 00:14:04.639 your children, practice the renewed mind. And 00:14:04.639 --> 00:14:07.279 don't think this is going to happen overnight. 00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:12.659 Because sometimes we have broken relationships. 00:14:15.850 --> 00:14:22.250 And part of being in the vine and us being the 00:14:22.250 --> 00:14:28.250 branches is bearing fruit. And it's fruit of 00:14:28.250 --> 00:14:33.909 repentance. And it's fruit that remains. It's 00:14:33.909 --> 00:14:40.090 how you maintain. That's why we have to work 00:14:40.090 --> 00:14:45.379 for this. No trabajar porque en sí el Mesías 00:14:45.379 --> 00:14:47.799 ya hizo el trabajo. We don't really have to work 00:14:47.799 --> 00:14:50.960 because the Messiah already did the work. We 00:14:50.960 --> 00:14:55.179 just have to obey. We have to take on the new 00:14:55.179 --> 00:14:59.840 man. It sounds very beautiful the way I say it 00:14:59.840 --> 00:15:03.899 from here. So let's see what happens tomorrow 00:15:03.899 --> 00:15:08.519 when I get up. But I am under the blood of the 00:15:08.519 --> 00:15:14.559 second Adam. And so are you. You have access 00:15:14.559 --> 00:15:19.980 to the blood of the second Adam. You have access 00:15:19.980 --> 00:15:25.500 to the mind of the second Adam, to the mind of 00:15:25.500 --> 00:15:29.120 love, to the mind that suffers all, that can 00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:36.179 do all, that can bear everything, to the mind 00:15:36.179 --> 00:15:42.120 of 1 Corinthians 13. And one of the verses says 00:15:42.120 --> 00:15:46.750 that the prophecies shall pass away. But the 00:15:46.750 --> 00:15:50.909 only thing that will remain will be faith, hope, 00:15:51.289 --> 00:15:57.830 and love. You are love. You don't believe that 00:15:57.830 --> 00:16:03.529 lie. You're not under the first Adam. You are 00:16:03.529 --> 00:16:08.029 now under the second Adam. The second Adam loves, 00:16:09.250 --> 00:16:18.320 confronts, forgives, restores. Now I understand 00:16:18.320 --> 00:16:20.200 why the Lord is taking us to the transformation 00:16:20.200 --> 00:16:25.120 of the mind. Because in this time we're speaking 00:16:25.120 --> 00:16:31.460 about a revival. And revival can start without 00:16:31.460 --> 00:16:37.799 repentance. And repentance sometimes we're going 00:16:37.799 --> 00:16:42.850 to feel pain. Sometimes you're gonna feel like 00:16:42.850 --> 00:16:48.730 crying, but it doesn't remain just there. It 00:16:48.730 --> 00:16:58.330 is practiced. But this is what I believe the 00:16:58.330 --> 00:17:02.330 Lord wants to speak to us about. For the revival, 00:17:05.109 --> 00:17:07.259 remember this is not gonna be. with singers. 00:17:08.779 --> 00:17:12.000 It will not be with preachers. It will not be 00:17:12.000 --> 00:17:18.420 with pastors. The Lord has already spoken that 00:17:18.420 --> 00:17:20.299 this is going to be with people that are not 00:17:20.299 --> 00:17:24.960 known and known people. But these are people 00:17:24.960 --> 00:17:31.440 that are willing to allow the mind of Christ 00:17:31.440 --> 00:17:39.619 to be formed in us and revival so at home. Revival 00:17:39.619 --> 00:17:44.380 starts in my house. It starts in your house. 00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:50.420 You know the Lord ministered to me one thing 00:17:50.420 --> 00:17:58.599 some time ago. It's so easy sometimes to express 00:17:58.599 --> 00:18:05.519 love to others or compassion to others. where 00:18:05.519 --> 00:18:08.380 it matters most. But sometimes we don't express 00:18:08.380 --> 00:18:10.799 compassion where it's more important, most important. 00:18:14.480 --> 00:18:18.339 And it says, you shall be witnesses in Jerusalem 00:18:18.339 --> 00:18:24.059 first. Jerusalem is your house. Jerusalem is 00:18:24.059 --> 00:18:29.299 your husband. Jerusalem is your wife. Jerusalem 00:18:29.299 --> 00:18:35.380 is your child, your daughter. You're praying 00:18:35.380 --> 00:18:40.670 for him to come. Come to Jesus. You already prayed 00:18:40.670 --> 00:18:43.670 for your children to come back to Jesus. Now 00:18:43.670 --> 00:18:52.650 love them. Love on them. You already prayed and 00:18:52.650 --> 00:18:54.650 said to your husband or wife whatever you needed 00:18:54.650 --> 00:19:02.759 to say. Now love on them. This is the mind of 00:19:02.759 --> 00:19:09.480 Christ. This is the mind of Jesus. It's just 00:19:09.480 --> 00:19:17.359 putting off the former man. You know, when I 00:19:17.359 --> 00:19:27.339 was reading all this, when Adam was subject to 00:19:27.339 --> 00:19:35.130 the kingdom of darkness, And I was reading Romans 00:19:35.130 --> 00:19:41.029 12 too. And it says, do not be conformed to this 00:19:41.029 --> 00:19:45.470 world. But I was able to see this in a different 00:19:45.470 --> 00:19:53.289 way. I saw it this way, when I don't renew my 00:19:53.289 --> 00:20:01.670 mind, I'm still subject to the world. I'm still 00:20:01.670 --> 00:20:08.250 subject to the... a kingdom of darkness. But 00:20:08.250 --> 00:20:12.930 when I saw Romans 12 -2 again, I saw it from 00:20:12.930 --> 00:20:17.190 a different perspective. I saw it as Jesus saying, 00:20:18.470 --> 00:20:24.089 do not be conformed. Do not be conformed to that. 00:20:25.170 --> 00:20:29.150 You don't belong there. Your mind does not belong 00:20:29.150 --> 00:20:33.240 to that world. Your mind wants translated somewhere 00:20:33.240 --> 00:20:38.579 else. I changed it because the desire of Jesus 00:20:38.579 --> 00:20:46.440 is that we experience the fullness of the mind 00:20:46.440 --> 00:20:51.359 of the Messiah, the fullness of the mind of the 00:20:51.359 --> 00:20:57.240 Father. This week I was battling with this thought. 00:20:58.640 --> 00:21:05.880 I would say, Lord, I renounce this thought. And 00:21:05.880 --> 00:21:10.759 I accept what you're saying. I'm from my spirit. 00:21:10.890 --> 00:21:16.670 phrase came out and I said Lord my mind is beautiful. 00:21:18.509 --> 00:21:22.589 My mind is beautiful. Your mind is beautiful 00:21:22.589 --> 00:21:28.130 because it's no longer your mind. It's the mind 00:21:28.130 --> 00:21:33.289 of Christ in you. It's the mind of love in you. 00:21:34.950 --> 00:21:39.130 And like I was telling you, the mind carries 00:21:39.130 --> 00:21:45.890 an atmosphere. What atmosphere carries the mind 00:21:45.890 --> 00:21:51.710 of Christ? It carries the fragrance. It carries 00:21:51.710 --> 00:21:58.650 purity. It carries simplicity. It carries hearing 00:21:58.650 --> 00:22:04.089 others. It doesn't just cast a stone, but it 00:22:04.089 --> 00:22:08.400 embraces. I want to ask you there where you're 00:22:08.400 --> 00:22:20.039 at. Close your eyes. Close your eyes. And I know 00:22:20.039 --> 00:22:22.140 that the Lord is asking you for changes in your 00:22:22.140 --> 00:22:29.119 mind. What are those thoughts? The patterns? 00:22:30.279 --> 00:22:36.670 The attitudes? Don't criticize anymore. Don't 00:22:36.670 --> 00:22:44.109 criticize anymore. Just love him. Just love her. 00:22:47.009 --> 00:22:55.049 Allow Jesus to minister. Sometimes we come with 00:22:55.049 --> 00:22:58.910 so many burdens to the house of the Lord. We're 00:22:58.910 --> 00:23:05.309 so burdened. So much oppression. And it's because 00:23:05.309 --> 00:23:10.930 of the mind. Everything is in the mind. Everything 00:23:10.930 --> 00:23:19.309 is there. But today is the day where Jesus is 00:23:19.309 --> 00:23:28.079 introducing us to the grace To be able to put 00:23:28.079 --> 00:23:33.279 off the former man. And to put on the new man. 00:23:35.059 --> 00:23:36.299 So there where you're at.
