Speaker 2 (00:50):
Today is Father's Day. Can we just celebrate all the
fathers in the house. My message today is not on fathers,
but I do want to say a little bit about
father's fathers. They are important and they have a very
very important role in the family, in the church, and
in the society. Just a couple things on fathers. A

(01:13):
father's presence shapes identity. Children who grow up with engaged fathers,
whether biological, adoptive, or father figures, are more likely to
have higher self esteem, perform better academically, form healthier relationships.
A father's words and actions become part of a child's

(01:33):
inner voice. They often define what is possible, acceptable, and worthy.
Fathers are silent builders, while mothers often nurture. Fathers tend
to shape identity through challenge, protection, and provisions. Fathers teach
responsibility through example, discipline through consistency, courage through risk and failure,

(01:55):
and God has often first understood through a father. For many,
their concept of God is initially shaped by their earthly father.
A father who is loving, just, and forgiven can make
it easier for children to relate to God as a
good father. Conversely, absent or abusive fathers can distort that image.
This is why scripture often refers to God as a father.

(02:17):
It's meant to convey deep love, authority, and belonging. Fatherhood
changes a man's brain and soul. Research shows that becoming
a father literally rewires a brain and it increased increased
empathy and bonding hormones like oxytocin, heightened protectiveness, and long

(02:39):
term thinking. Spiritually, fatherhood is often often a call to
die to self and lifts sacrificially for others. Much like
the example of Christ and the father's blessing in the Bible,
a father's blessing like Jacob to his sons in Genesis
forty nine, was seen as a prophetic release of destiny
and identity. Even today, a father's affirmation carries long life weight.

(03:05):
Many people spend decades subconsciously searching for their father's approval, attention,
and acknowledgment, and wounds from a father they cut deep.
The absence, neglect, or cruelty of a father often creates
one of the deepest human wounds. Father's fatherlessness is linked
to increased risk of depression, addiction and imprisonment, identity, confusion,

(03:30):
and emotional instability. But healing can begin through forgiveness, God,
father's hood and father figures who step in and the
last one, fatherhood is a legacy the Bible. The Bible
says in Proverbs thirteen twenty two, a good man leaves
an inheritance to his children's children. And inheritance is not

(03:54):
just financial, it includes faith, wisdom, and character. And with
this said, I want to say that fathers, you are important.
And you know, one of the things that we see
in society right now of many broken people, they grew
up in broken homes because of the absence of a father.
And there's so many prisons filled with fathers not being

(04:17):
in their lives. And so how do you stop generational
curses from being passed on from one generation to the next.
I'll tell you how. Have a healthy home, be a
good father, be a good mother, raise your children in
a good home, and that will most likely help end

(04:37):
generational curses. Because broken families, you know, father's not there,
a child grows up neglected abuse, Mary's abuses his children,
and that's how generational curses get passed on from one generation.
But God is a good father, amen, and he wants
you to be a good father and through Jesus Christ,

(05:00):
through looking at the Father, we can be a good
fathers also. And we need more good fathers. Your family
needs you, your church needs you, society needs you. We
need more fathers. Amen. So I want to just celebrate
every father in this place. Continue to be faithful, continue
to love your family, continue to bless your family, and

(05:23):
your family needs you, and thank you for your sacrifice.
Can we just give a round of applause for all
the fathers? Amen? Amen? Amen. Andy. With that being said,
I want to go into my message. I want to
ask you a question. Do you know you do you
know how God made you. It's very very important. In

(05:47):
first Thessalonian chapter five, verse twenty three, there's a scripture
in the Bible says, and the God of Peace himself
sanctify you holy, and may your spirit and soul and
body be preserved completely without blame at the coming of
our Lord Jesus Christ. And here we see that the
Bible clearly shows us that we are three parts. Say

(06:09):
I am three parts. I am spirit, I am soul,
and I am bodied. We need to really really understand
this because I believe if we understand this, it will
help us walk maturely with our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen,
so really quick. The human spirit is the deepest part

(06:32):
of a person. It's the innermost part of a person.
And with that part we contact God in the spiritual world.
That's the part that God communicates with. He communicates with
our spirit. Now. The soul is made up our mind,
our will, emotions and intellect. Our soul is our personality.

(06:53):
It's who we are. With our soul, we think, we reason,
we consider, we remember, and we wonder, experience emotions like happiness, love, sorrow,
anger and relief and compassion, and with it we make decisions,
We choose, we think, we feel, and the soul is
the decision maker. Somebody say the soul is a decision maker.

(07:17):
The soul is a decision maker between the spirit and
the body and the flesh. It's the in between the
spiritual and the physical. The body, it's the outer shell.
It's what houses the spirit and the soul. And with
the body, we contact this physical world through our five senses. Now,

(07:40):
can we show a picture of that crash car? I
want to ask you a question. Does anybody know what
this vehicle is? Huh huh Pontiac you can't tell? Thank

(08:00):
you because of it severely wrecked, we can't tell. And
a good place to see to see to see this?
Can we go the good picture? Now? Can you tell?
Probably like a toyota maybe m R two. I want

(08:24):
us to go to the beginning in Genesis when God
created everything perfect, to see clearly what we look like
in the beginning, because at the crash car it's very
hard to tell. Do you agree, So let's go to
the beginning. After God created the world, he created man,

(08:44):
and he created him perfect. You believe God created mankind perfect.
When God says it is good, you believe it is good.
God created the world. He created man, and he created
him perfect. Out of the dust. He formed the body,
and God bathed the breath of life into man, and
man became living being. I believe this is the time
that Adam received his soul and his spirit. In the beginning,

(09:07):
Adam was perfect. Adam's spirit was alive unto God. Adam's
spirit was divinely connected to God's spirit. Adam was a
spiritual person. Adam was a spirit led person. Adam made
his decisions from his spirit. His spirit dominated his decision making. Amen,

(09:31):
his spirit was connected to God's spirit. Do you know
that Adam had instant revelation from God? The Bible says
Adam walked with God. Do you know that Adam had
the ability of naming all the animals without ever going
to school. A zebra shows up, zebra, A line shows

(09:52):
up lyne. He had supernatural divine grace connected to God's spirit.
Adam was a spiritual person. Amen. Can we go to
the picture of the crash car and then in Genesis

(10:16):
chapter two, verse seventeen, God says, the but of the
tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you shall
not eat, for in the day that you eat of it,
you shall surely die. When Adam and Eve they partook
of the fruit, what happened? Talk to me, it's not

(10:39):
a true question. They disobeyed the Lord God says, the
day you eat of the fruit, you shall what. I
want to ask you a question, what died? Did you
know that Adam lived nine hundred and thirty years, so

(11:00):
it's obviously his soul di did and die. Obviously his
body still lived nine hundred and thirty years. More, go
to the picture of the spirit, soul and body with
the ex Adam spirit that was connected to God. That's
the part that died. Adam was no longer a spirit

(11:23):
led person. No longer was he connected to God like
he was before. Adam became a soulish, fleshly sinful person.
Genesis three happened the fall. Adam no longer was making

(11:45):
his decision from his spirit connected to God's spirit. No
longer he had instant revelation like he had met before.
He was a soulish soul dominant, fleshly lad person. And
this is the time where into the world curse us
into the world, disease and sickness into the world. Adam

(12:06):
instead of easily receiving fruits from the ground. He now
had to sweat and work hard for his food. His
wife Eve, she had great pain and suffering and childbearing.
And all you ladies that have period pains, just say
thank you Eve. Come on, because that's where it's come from.

(12:26):
Come on, I know you ladies go through a lot
when you have a wife. You know. Instead of walking
with God freely in the cool of the day in
the garden, enjoying the presence of God and the peace
of God, being connected to God's spirit, living out of
that place, connected to God with the peace of God,

(12:48):
the lights went out. Darkness, fear, anxiety, stressed, depression came in.
And because of sin and disobedience, evil spirits through open
doors penetrated the human body, taking control of the mind, emotions,
the soul, causing sickness, causing pain, causing torments and Adam.
Instead of being the masters over the earth, Adam and

(13:13):
Eve became a slave to sin, a slave to Satan,
a slave to the world, a slave to their own
appetites and senses. What looks good, what feels good. Their
outer senses now dictates their truth, their reality. This is
very important. Go back to the picture with the X

(13:34):
Adam and Eve became a soulish, fleshly sinful person. That's
why you see in the Old Testament. I don't want
to spoil some things and give it away. That's why
the inside of my he was he died on the inside.
His spirit was cut off from God's spirit, and God

(13:56):
had there was a lot of outward work that he
people in the Old test and that's why they needed
a lot of outward evidence, like for example, like Gideon, Lord,
if that's you make the fleece dry, make the fleece wet,
because his insides they were cut off from God. Does
that make sense? Their outer senses dictates their reality. Man's

(14:22):
spirit was cut off from God, the life source, and man,
like a tree cut down, starts drying up and spiraling
down from the high position he occupied. Adam and Eve
they are sinful. They have become sinners. Their nature is
to sin. And every single person after Adam and Eve.

(14:42):
You need to hear this loud and clear. Every single
person after Adam and Eve. They are not sinners because
they commit sin. They are sinners because they were simply
born with that nature. They were born after Adam and Eve,
and that was the state of mankind. Can we put
the picture of the crash car. This is the state

(15:04):
of mankind after Genesis chapter three. And you see Adam
he knew the height that he fell for fell from,
he walked with God, he knew how it was to
be led by the spirit, connected to God's spirit. He
knew how it was to make those decisions out of

(15:24):
that place. And now he became a soulish, fleshly, sinful person.
You know, there's books, it's not in the Bible, but
it talks about Adam how depressed he was. I mean,
think about it. If you walked in that high place
and now you're in this place, you'd be a little depressed,
wouldn't you. And all mankind was that in that place.

(15:48):
And because Adam knew, but every single person after Adam,
when they were born, they really didn't. They really didn't
know where they have fallen from. Because when you're you
just think that's normal. You know, you think this is normal.
And you know, man through the soul is fleshly let state.

(16:11):
He couldn't understand the condition that he or she was in.
And man thinks there's nothing wrong with him. He thinks
he's good, he thinks he's fine. And when man compares
himself with another, he seems he's very good according to
his own eyes. And he thinks that by doing more

(16:32):
good than bad, that God should allow him this, allow
him that, and by doing some religious thing he can
earn God's approval and God's love. And did you know
that religion didn't start in the church or didn't start
in the temple. Do you know where religion started? Religion

(16:53):
started in the garden. When Adam and Eve fell from
that high place, what do they do? They started to
make figles their own attempts trying to come back to
that place. But you know what God did, even in
the beginning, What did God do? He clothed them with
what talk to me? He didn't clothe them with fig leaves.

(17:18):
He cover them with tunics of skins. And tunics of
skins don't grow on trees. Something had to die. That
was a representation of Jesus Christ already coming. And man
in that falling condition thinks that by doing some religious

(17:40):
thing he can earn God's approval. And there are some
people they don't even think they need God. They have
become their own gods. And we see that throughout ages.
Man through the pride filled soulace fleshly led state. He
built himself cities to sustain himself, to provide for himself,
to educate himself, to lead himself to live separate from God.

(18:02):
And man thinks he's good, he has good morals. He
kills babies through abortion, saying they're not humans, but protects
the turtles, protects the trees, protects the dolphins, doing some
kind of good to ease the conscience. So in order
for God to show man what condition man is in,

(18:23):
because man doesn't know, you know what God does, God
gives mankind the law. God gives the law through Moses
to mankind, and he says, man, you think you're good,
you think you're okay, here's the law. Keep it. And
for thousands of years man try to keep the law.

(18:46):
And Roman seven twelve says, the law is holy, the
commandment is holy. It righteous and good. And for thousands
of years he tries to keep it, keep it. And
man finds out he can't the law no matter how
hard he or she tries to keep it. Something inside
of him, something inside of her, is broken, resists, rebelled.

(19:09):
You know that the law brings out rebellion that's what
the scripture says. God gave the law to man, not
to make him righteous. God gave the law to men
to show man what condition he is in. That man
needs help. Come on, if you ever fix cars here,

(19:29):
cut here won't make it clean. Title that car. It
needs serious help. Roman chapter seven, verse fifteen says, I
do not understand what I do. For what I want
to do I do not do. But what I hate
I do. And if I do what I do not
want to do, I agree that the law is good

(19:51):
as it is. It is no longer on myself who
do it, but sin living in me. For I know
that good itself does not dwell in me. That is
in my sinfulness. I have the desire to do what
is good, but I cannot carry it out. I do
not do the good I want to do, but the
evil I do not want to do. This I keep ondoing. Now.
If I do what I do not want to do,

(20:13):
it is no longer I who do it, but it
is sin living in me. Man finds out his fallen
state doesn't allow him to measure up. And God did
not give the law to man to make him righteous,
but to show him he needs help. He needs salvation,

(20:39):
he needs regeneration. Amen. And that's why Jesus he had
to come a virgin birth. It had to be a
virgin birth. That's why that miracle, even in the Bible,
that virgin birth. It had to be, because if it
wasn't virgin birth, he would have a nature that is

(21:02):
not holy. He was a virgin birth one hundred percent men,
but also one hundred percent God. And the Bible says
in the Galatians chapter four, verse four, it says, but
when the fullness of time came, God sent forth his son,
born of a woman, born under the law, that he
might redeem those under the law, that they might receive

(21:24):
the adoptions as sons. Jesus Christ came into the world
that you and I would not perish. He walked on earth,
never made a mistake, never sin, was the perfect lamb
of God spot with our spot and blemish. And on
the cross, Jesus became sin so that we might become
the righteousness of Christ in him. Jesus Christ absorbed the

(21:47):
punishment on the cross, and in return he gave us
righteousness right standing. He justified us just as if we
never sin. But more than this, come on. This is
going to get even better. But more than this, Jesus
allowed us to become children of God. And this is
where everything changes. You need to hear this. Jesus allowed

(22:13):
us to become children of God. Look what John chapter one,
verse twelve says. But as many as received him, to them,
he gave the right to become children of God to
those who believed in his name, who were born not
of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor
of the will of man, but of God. So those
that received him, those that repented of their sins, to

(22:34):
them that confess the lordship of Jesus Christ, the ones
that are baptized in the Holy Spirit and water, they
have become born again. Maynw Jesus comes to Nicodemus and says,
you must be born again. Nicodemus says, Jesus, do you

(22:59):
want me to go in my mother's womb and be
born again? No no, no, no no no no no no,
that's not what Jesus is talking about. Let's go to
that one with the X. You see, when Adam and
Eve messed up, they lived nine hundred years. Adam did,

(23:21):
but his spirit was separated from God. That part, that
part was that part died, that connection to God died.
That's what Jesus says. You must be born again. You see,
when we give our life to Jesus, he makes us

(23:42):
alive on the inside. He makes us alive on the inside.
That's what Apostle Paul says. You were dead in your trespasses,
but he made you alive. You know. Go back to that,
go to that picture with the star. When we give
our life to Jesus Christ, we are born again. Our

(24:04):
spirit comes alive. Two Corinthians, chapter five seventeen says, Therefore,
if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.
All things have passed away. Behold, all things have been
made new. Now those of us that have been born

(24:30):
again made new in Christ. Now we must learn how
to walk in a new way, in the new self,
not under the law, but under grace and the spirit
of God. When we give our life to Jesus Christ,
God makes us alive. We are children of God. We
have the capacity to actually hear his voice. Jesus says,

(24:51):
my sheep, hear my voice. This is the part that
comes alive. You have to understand. And now we have
to learn how to walk in this new way. We
have to learn how to walk in that new place
that was born again, led by the Holy Spirit, and

(25:14):
not after the flesh. Because hear me out, people of God,
you can be born again, have the ability to hear God,
but still be soulish and fleshly and carnal. Talk to me.
I know it's quiet a little bit. Come on. Corinthius
tells us that you can be born again and still
walk fleshly and soulishly. But if you learn how to

(25:39):
walk in that new way, how to grow your spirit,
how to sew into that part. Because let me tell you,
it's not under the law that you're gonna You're gonna
be victorious, and it's walking in the new way. And
let me tell you something. When we are born again,
our identity changes. No longer are we sinners. We used

(26:01):
to be sinners, but when we gave our life to Christ,
he made us alive on the inside. My identity is
no longer a sinner, even though I can make a mistake.
Hear me out, because there's a lot of people say
from this place, oh, we're just sinners. You used to
be one. When He made you alive, your identity change.

(26:22):
You are not a sinner. Now, yes, you might have
made a mistake. That's why the Bible says, if we
confess our sins, the blood of Jesus forgives us. And
John says, I write these things so that you may
not sin. But if anyone does, we have an out
of the kate. Jesus Christ, the righteous One, speaks for us.
So our identity is not sinner. We have been made alive.

(26:43):
You just need to learn how to walk in that
new way. You need to learn how to walk on
the world of God. You need to learn how to
be led from that place because that was the original
design in the beginning. And when to have a righteousness conscious,
not a sin conscious, because if you think you're still

(27:05):
a sinner, you're gonna think like a sinner. You need
to have righteousness, conscience. The blood of Jesus cleanses and forget.
You stand upon that word of God. God made us
sons and daughters. Holy Spirit comes down to be our

(27:29):
personal teacher. And you know where Holy Spirit dwells in
our spirit. Holy Spirit teaches us about everything, instructs us,
guides us, leads us, convicts us of sin, but also
convicts us of righteousness. Life with God begins a new

(27:49):
life begins, and now we have to learn to show
in the spirit that born again part of us. We
need to take time to feed it with the word
of God. The word of God is food for our spirits.

(28:14):
If you take a look at this body, soul and spirit,
me and you, we do a great job taking care
of our bodies. How many times do we feed it?
Three times at least breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks in between,
maybe even at midnight. We do a good job taking

(28:38):
care of our body. We take it to the gym,
we take it to the sauna, We get our nails done,
hair done, I mean hours and hours we show in
that part because you know, if you don't take care
of it, you know, you don't feed it, it's gonna
He's gonna tell you, it's gonna scream feed me, you know.
And and we do a great job in that part.

(29:00):
We take care of it. We take care of it,
and we do a pretty good job taking care of
our soul. And our soul it likes fellowship, relationship, It
likes gossip drama. You know, that's why social media is
so addictive, because the soul, you know, what's happening, Oh cool,
and and we do a good job. But let me
ask you a question. How are we taking care of

(29:20):
our spirit? You cannot read the word of God as
just for a check mark, because imagine you gave chips
to your body. If you would feed your body just chips,
your body would scream at you. But you know your spirit,
it doesn't scream at you. It actually will become silent.

(29:42):
You stop feeding your spirit, you stop giving it the
word of God, you stop praying, and it seems like
the flesh and the soul they get stronger, and they
get more louder, and you feel like a pull towards ABCDEFG.
It's not like God is not there. But what happens

(30:04):
is your spirit gets out of tune with God's spirit
and you stop hearing him. God is still there. That's
why when you go back into prayer, you start hearing
God again. Your spirit tunes up to God again. So
what would happen if we would take care of our
spirit as much as we took care of our body.
What would happen if we took care of a spirit

(30:26):
by feeding it three times a day breakfast, lunch, and dinner,
and not just chips, and not just one scripture? Because
the word of God is food for our spirit. Imagine,
did you know that in the Bible, in the Old Testament,
Daniel was ten times better and throughout four different kingdoms
he rose to the top. He prayed three times a day,

(30:47):
and he wasn't even born again. Like we are Come
on first. Peter chapter two, verse two says, like newborn
babes crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you
may grow up. Somebody said, I need to grow up.

(31:09):
Come on, we need to take time to pray, pray
in the Holy spirit, get baptized in the holy spirits
very important. The Bible says, when one praise in tongue,
his spirit praise. Did you see that when you pray
in the tongue your spirit praise. You need your spirit

(31:30):
to enlarge, to grow. So what do we need to do.
We need to strengthen, build and develop our spirits. Let
me give you some scriptures. Luke chapter two, verse forty.
And the child Jesus grew and became strong in spirit,

(31:54):
filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him,
the Bible say to say, And the child Jesus grew
strong in his soul, and the child Jesus grew some
muscles in his body. No, no, no, no, it says in
the child, Jesus grew strong in spirit. See, that's the
part that Jesus allowed to be enlarged because he wanted
that part to be a dedominant decision making in his life.

(32:17):
Because let me tell you, people of God, you can
give your life that Jesus be born again. But if
you live by the soul and by the flesh, you'll
get I'll get you into trouble. Your flesh can get
you in some addictions you don't want to be in.
And the soul is in between. If you've been feeding
that other side, that other side is going to be

(32:39):
go this way, go this way. But if you be
feeding this one more, it says, look, this is the
better way. Do it. So next scripture Luke, chapter one,
verse eighty, John grew up and became strong in spirit.
And the last verse I want to give you Romans
won nine. This is Apostle Paul says, for God is

(33:00):
my witness, whom I serve with my spirit. In the
Gospel of his son, Apostle Paul says, I serve God
with my spirit. That's the part that he was growing
in him so that he would make his decisions out
of that place. Because that is the born again place
of us. That's where Holy Spirit dwells. Holy Spirit does

(33:23):
not talk to our souls. Holy Spirit does not talk
to our bodies. He communicates to our spirit. That's where
God is. Let me tell you, there's many soulish, fleshly
Christians that they think they hear God. But it ain't God,
it's them. It's the pizza. If you don't grow your spirit,

(33:48):
if you don't develop that place, you might be hearing
pizza communication from your body. It's important that that side
we show we feed it with the world of God,
because the word of God is food for the spirit.
What is the Bible says men shall not eat by
what buy bread alone, but every word that proceeds from

(34:10):
the mouth of God. Your spirit needs food, and you
can't just give it chips. You need to take care
of it. You know, when we go to feed our body,
we don't just like, oh, just a little bit of chips. No, no, no,
we eat till we good. You need to feed your
spirit till you're good and then and then we'll keep going.

(34:36):
When we give our life to Christ, our spirit comes alive.
You can trust everything that is going on in your spirit,
but you can't trust everything that is going on in
your soul. Your soul will need a lot of help.
Tell your neighbors say your soul will need help. Our

(34:59):
soul will need a lot of help. You can't trust
everything that's happening in your soul because your soul can
be wounded. Your soul can be hurt. And the soul
is also made up out of our of our mind,
and your mind needs the renewing of the of the
renewing of the mind. With the word, your soul is
gonna need lots of help. You could trust what's going
on in your spirit. I mean, let me give you,

(35:20):
let me get Let me give you an example. Any
of you have received something from the Holy Spirit, like
in your spirit you knew was God. God told you something,
and then your soul got in the way and says,
are you sure, and you started to doubt yourself. Come on,
talk to me. You been there well, keep growing. Your

(35:41):
spirit allowed that place to grow stronger. That we don't
we're not moved by sight of this natural world. We're
moved by what's happening on the inside through God's spirit
with with the Word of God and all in that
in that place. We need to align everything in the
in the in the right place. Amen. I mean, just
an example, do you remember Peter was walking on water

(36:02):
because Jesus says, come and then he looked around the
winds in the waves. I mean, what does the big
wins and the small winds have to do with walking
on water? It's impossible anyways, but I'm making a point.
His soul got in the way and what he started
to doubt, but he did walk though. Come on, So

(36:24):
I want to give you some practical things for strengthening
our spirit. Can we invite somebody on the piano? So
our first step number one is get saved, give your
life to Jesus. That's your first step. You need to
be born again. Jesus says, you must be born again.

(36:47):
There's no other way. Okay, in your fleshly soulish, carnal state,
you cannot hear God. You need to be born again.
You need to receive the the radio to hear per se.
You're giving your life to Jesus is your first step.
And Jesus says, my sheep, they hear when you give

(37:10):
your life to Jesus. And that's what happens at the altar.
It can be at the ultar wherever the location, that
doesn't matter. But literally, your spirit comes alive. God says,
I give him a new heart, and they have the
ability to hear. Now, if they develop him, that's a
whole different thing. But your first step, get saved, Then

(37:34):
get water baptized, and then get baptized in the Holy Spirit.
Sometimes people receive it at salvation, but a lot of
times it happens at a different instance. Receive the gift
of speaking in tongues. That is your prayer language. That
is for you to build yourself up in your most
holy faith. That is for you to grow. When one

(37:58):
praised in tongue his hear, it prays you need to
have that part being large so that your decision making
is not from your soul and is not from your
definitely not from your flesh, because that will get you
in trouble. And then start feeding yourself with the word
of God. The word of God is food for the spirit.

(38:22):
And then pray and speak in tongues more. Apostle Paul says, I,
thank God, I speak in tongues more than you all.
He had so much revelation that he was there's some
revelation who was not even allowed to talk about. Have
communion and fellowship with Holy Spirit in your spirit. Deny yourself,

(38:48):
learn how to deny yourself. Remember where spirit, soul and body.
When we get to heaven, we will have a new
body that won't have cravings towards this earth. That's why
sometimes people give their lives that Jesus and they wonder,
why do I still have a tug towards this or
towards that. You see, God didn't renew your body. When

(39:09):
you're in heaven, you'll have a new, glorified body. You
won't have the cravings of the world. It's kind of
like when you get to space, you won't have the
gravity of the pulling of the earth. But he gave
you a spirit that came alive. And that's why we
need to learn to deny ourselves and deny our abcdefg
But it's it's from this place that victory will come.

(39:31):
It's not victory will won't come by you saying I
can't do this, I can't do this, I can't do this,
I can't do this, I can't do this. No, no, no, no, no
victory will come where you live life from that place
that is the born against side of you. Amen. It's
not by you saying no, no, no, no no. But
still we need to learn to deny ourselves and then

(39:58):
everything will lead up to obeying Holy Spirit and that
and God gives us keys. He gives us fasting because
we didn't have We don't our bodies are not made
new as they need to be when heaven they will be.
God gives us keys for now fasting. You know, from

(40:20):
time to time fasting, he'll put that flesh down so
that your spirit can have more room. Amen. So I
want us to stand
