Creflo Dollar: Satan justlaughing, "I finally got a
00:00:08.788 --> 00:00:12.058
platform to execute whatever Iwant to execute on the planet
00:00:12.092 --> 00:00:17.630
because they're ignorantof my operation."
00:00:17.664 --> 00:00:22.168
And Christian peoplecan't be ignorant.
00:00:22.202 --> 00:00:28.408
You are the righteousnessof God.
00:00:28.441 --> 00:00:31.177
You have a covenant of God.

Creflo Dollar: Go with me tothe Book of Job chapter 3
00:01:50.123 --> 00:01:51.691
and 25.
00:01:51.724 --> 00:01:54.160
We do not have tobe subject to fear.
00:01:54.194 --> 00:01:56.529
Say out loud, "I do nothave to be subject to fear."
00:01:56.563 --> 00:02:00.333
In fact, the choiceis entirely up to you.
00:02:00.366 --> 00:02:04.637
Just 'cause fear is present, youdon't have to be subject to it.
00:02:04.671 --> 00:02:07.373
The choice isentirely up to you.
00:02:07.407 --> 00:02:09.676
While fear and terror may be onthe rise in the world, and may
00:02:09.709 --> 00:02:13.246
even try to come against us,they are powerless against
00:02:13.279 --> 00:02:16.249
persons who hasconfidence in God's Word.
00:02:16.282 --> 00:02:20.386
And it keeps it at the forefrontof his or her thinking at
00:02:20.420 --> 00:02:23.790
all times.
00:02:23.823 --> 00:02:25.491
When you get the Word of God andyou keep it at the forefront of
00:02:25.525 --> 00:02:27.560
your thinking at all time, thenfear is powerless against you.
00:02:27.594 --> 00:02:31.197
It's not what you'rethinking about.
00:02:31.231 --> 00:02:33.967
It's not what you'refocused in on.
00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:36.469
Whatever you give your attentionto is what will become a large
00:02:36.502 --> 00:02:40.506
part of your life.
00:02:40.540 --> 00:02:43.009
It becomes large.
00:02:43.042 --> 00:02:44.510
It becomes big in your life.
00:02:44.544 --> 00:02:46.112
What are youattending to the most?
00:02:46.145 --> 00:02:47.513
It becomes big in your life.
00:02:47.547 --> 00:02:48.948
Listen, if you keep going homeevery day and spending five
00:02:48.982 --> 00:02:51.050
hours a day listening to thenews talk about the virus,
00:02:51.084 --> 00:02:54.287
that's gonna becomebig in your life.
00:02:54.320 --> 00:02:58.191
It's gonna startterrorizing you.
00:02:58.224 --> 00:03:00.360
It's gonna becomebig in your life.
00:03:00.393 --> 00:03:02.061
All right, so you knowabout it, you understand it,
00:03:02.095 --> 00:03:04.864
praise the Lord.
00:03:04.897 --> 00:03:06.766
But does that mean, "Letme get the latest update?"
00:03:06.799 --> 00:03:09.269
It's, it's--
00:03:09.302 --> 00:03:10.970
Are y'all hearingwhat I'm saying?
00:03:15.408 --> 00:03:16.843
If you allow fear to dominateyour thinking by giving
00:03:16.876 --> 00:03:19.178
attention to your fears, thosethings will actually increase in
00:03:19.212 --> 00:03:22.982
your mind and in your heart.
00:03:23.016 --> 00:03:24.951
If you never counteract thosenegative thoughts and feelings
00:03:24.984 --> 00:03:27.720
with the Word of God, they willbegin to frame the way you see
00:03:27.754 --> 00:03:30.556
things and ultimately beginattracting the very thing you
00:03:30.590 --> 00:03:34.994
are afraid of.
00:03:35.028 --> 00:03:37.063
They will keep you in bondageand torment you day and night,
00:03:37.096 --> 00:03:42.468
and fear is an absolutedisruption of the peace of God,
00:03:42.502 --> 00:03:47.206
desires for every Christian whowalks in this peace, fear wants
00:03:47.240 --> 00:03:53.946
to disrupt it.
00:03:53.980 --> 00:03:55.982
It wants to cancel the peace inyour life, so we have to make
00:03:56.015 --> 00:03:59.485
a decision to keep our mindsfocused on what God says
00:03:59.519 --> 00:04:03.690
all the time.
00:04:03.723 --> 00:04:05.892
So, your spiritual battle is"I've heard clearly what
00:04:05.925 --> 00:04:10.930
they say, now let me go andfocus on what God says."
00:04:10.963 --> 00:04:14.734
All right, because if you don't,you--listen some of you know
00:04:14.767 --> 00:04:17.904
what I'm telling about.
00:04:17.937 --> 00:04:19.605
If you don't, you will just beyou you'll find, you ain't even
00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:23.276
coming out of the house.
00:04:23.309 --> 00:04:25.712
And fear willintroduce new fears.
00:04:25.745 --> 00:04:28.481
I got a fear for the epidemic,now I got a fear I'm not gonna
00:04:28.514 --> 00:04:30.183
be able pay to pay my bills.
00:04:30.216 --> 00:04:31.551
And I got a fear that, you know,I'm not gonna be able to have
00:04:31.584 --> 00:04:34.387
money to do this.
00:04:34.420 --> 00:04:35.988
And I got a fear of, you know,this, and then another fear
00:04:36.022 --> 00:04:38.624
coming up, and then I gotta goget me some bullets because
00:04:38.658 --> 00:04:40.760
I'm fearing people gonna comein and I gotta go
00:04:40.793 --> 00:04:42.729
into self-preservation,which is based in fear.
00:04:42.762 --> 00:04:45.331
And then I moved fromself-preservation based in fear
00:04:45.365 --> 00:04:47.433
to now I'm worried about, youknow, God say he'll take care
00:04:47.467 --> 00:04:50.636
of me, "I'll supply allyour needs according
00:04:50.670 --> 00:04:52.271
to your riches in glory."
00:04:52.305 --> 00:04:54.273
But then fear says,"Doubt that."
00:04:54.307 --> 00:04:56.476
Fear says, "Don't believe that.
00:04:56.509 --> 00:04:57.977
Do you really believe Godgonna take care of you?"
00:04:58.010 --> 00:04:59.545
And you going through all ofthis, and you ain't even left
00:04:59.579 --> 00:05:01.147
the house.
00:05:01.180 --> 00:05:05.051
And besides all of that, one ofthe greatest ways to lower your
00:05:05.084 --> 00:05:07.720
immunity is to start worryingand get stressed out.
00:05:07.754 --> 00:05:13.526
Wake up.
00:05:13.559 --> 00:05:17.997
Look at Job 3:25, "For the thingwhich I greatly feared is come
00:05:18.030 --> 00:05:24.737
upon me, and that which I wasafraid of is come unto me."
00:05:24.771 --> 00:05:31.811
Job even knew, I gottastay away from fear."
00:05:31.844 --> 00:05:35.381
Because fear is thefaith of the devil.
00:05:35.415 --> 00:05:40.219
Fear is the faith of the devil.
00:05:40.253 --> 00:05:43.990
Fear tolerated willcontaminate your faith.
00:05:44.023 --> 00:05:48.661
And he said, "The thing I wasgreatly feared,
00:05:48.694 --> 00:05:50.596
that's what's come upon me.
00:05:50.630 --> 00:05:52.532
And that the thing thatI'm afraid of, man, that's--
00:05:52.565 --> 00:05:55.268
I see it right now."
00:05:55.301 --> 00:05:57.537
I remember when I had this fearof my wife going out alone.
00:05:57.570 --> 00:06:01.908
We had just moved to NewYork, and she's catching cabs.
00:06:01.941 --> 00:06:06.412
And I'm like, "Where are you?"
00:06:06.446 --> 00:06:08.381
"Oh, I just took a cab andI just went down to Macy's."
00:06:08.414 --> 00:06:10.450
And I'm like freaking outlike, "I'm not with you."
00:06:10.483 --> 00:06:13.352
Like I can protecther more than God.
00:06:13.386 --> 00:06:17.557
And my wife ain't never beenthat kind of folks to announce,
00:06:17.590 --> 00:06:21.027
"I'm doing this and follow."
00:06:21.060 --> 00:06:22.995
It's like, "I'mthere, where you at?"
00:06:23.029 --> 00:06:29.535
And I remember that dayspecifically the Lord spoke
00:06:29.569 --> 00:06:32.505
to me.
00:06:32.538 --> 00:06:34.273
He says, "If you don't get yourfear under control concerning
00:06:34.307 --> 00:06:37.043
your wife, you may one dayhave to accept some of the
00:06:37.076 --> 00:06:40.413
responsibility for whathappens in her life."
00:06:40.446 --> 00:06:44.984
And I said, "Lord, forgive me."
00:06:45.017 --> 00:06:47.587
And from that point on I'm like,uh-uh, and every time I sense it
00:06:47.620 --> 00:06:50.323
coming on me, Ifight against it.
00:06:50.356 --> 00:06:52.959
How did I fight against it?
00:06:52.992 --> 00:06:54.460
I'd open my mouth and I'd say,"The angels of God, watch over
00:06:54.494 --> 00:06:57.029
my wife.
00:06:57.063 --> 00:06:58.664
And God loves her much more thanI do, praise God, so she's in
00:06:58.698 --> 00:07:01.200
good hands.
00:07:01.234 --> 00:07:02.535
Praise the Lord."
00:07:02.568 --> 00:07:04.170
And I'd have to speak to myselfto let that fear know you cannot
00:07:04.203 --> 00:07:07.740
enter in and have place inmy thinking, all is well.
00:07:07.773 --> 00:07:11.677
Well, that came from a fear of arelative of mine who went to get
00:07:11.711 --> 00:07:15.681
some stuff from the store andnever came back, and ended up
00:07:15.715 --> 00:07:20.019
dead in the trunk of a car.
00:07:20.052 --> 00:07:22.221
I never dealt with that.
00:07:22.255 --> 00:07:24.524
And you have to deal withthose things in your life that
00:07:24.557 --> 00:07:28.895
continue to be, you know,something that will propel fear
00:07:28.928 --> 00:07:35.201
in your life.
00:07:35.234 --> 00:07:37.203
It's not okay.
00:07:37.236 --> 00:07:39.038
I had to come to the placeand say, "It is not okay."
00:07:39.071 --> 00:07:42.241
I'm not dealing with itfrom a therapeutics sense.
00:07:42.275 --> 00:07:44.944
"Well, you know, everybody hasa little fear, har, har, har."
00:07:44.977 --> 00:07:47.213
It ain't okay.
00:07:47.246 --> 00:07:49.348
It ain't okay.
00:07:49.382 --> 00:07:50.816
I'm a believer.
00:07:50.850 --> 00:07:52.485
It's not okay.
00:07:52.518 --> 00:07:53.886
I know more than the worldknows so I'm not gonna do that.
00:07:53.920 --> 00:07:55.488
Well, I got a fear of gettingon the elevator at the Peachtree
00:07:55.521 --> 00:07:57.924
Plaza when they first built itand there was an elevator on
00:07:57.957 --> 00:08:00.626
the outside.
00:08:00.660 --> 00:08:02.361
I'm like, I ain'tgetting on that thing.
00:08:02.395 --> 00:08:04.797
And I decided, that's a fear.
00:08:04.830 --> 00:08:06.132
I'm gonna have todeal with that.
00:08:06.165 --> 00:08:07.533
If I don't deal with that littleseed of fear, it'll come back
00:08:07.567 --> 00:08:09.168
and deal with me.
00:08:09.201 --> 00:08:10.836
I had to get on the elevator andI stood as close to the window
00:08:10.870 --> 00:08:13.472
as I possibly could.
00:08:13.506 --> 00:08:15.942
And I'm like, uh-uh,I will not do it.
00:08:15.975 --> 00:08:18.844
And I'm fine now, but Ihad to deal with that fear.
00:08:18.878 --> 00:08:21.247
I had a fear of flyingso I took pilot lessons.
00:08:21.280 --> 00:08:25.618
And in the first course of pilotlessons, you have to do a stall.
00:08:25.651 --> 00:08:29.755
That's when you take a 172 up,and then you do a stall and hold
00:08:29.789 --> 00:08:35.494
the nose up as far as it come,and then the engine goes off.
00:08:35.528 --> 00:08:39.665
Some of y'all say, "Hallelujah."
00:08:39.699 --> 00:08:42.602
And then that thing fly andinstructor the whole time says,
00:08:42.635 --> 00:08:45.338
"Trust the laws,trust the laws."
00:08:45.371 --> 00:08:48.541
And I say, "Come on, Jesus.
00:08:48.574 --> 00:08:49.942
Come on, Jesus.
00:08:49.976 --> 00:08:51.544
Come on, Jesus."
00:08:51.577 --> 00:08:54.046
Then it is just say--andI say, "Thank you, Jesus.
00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:56.916
Thank you, Jesus.
00:08:56.949 --> 00:08:58.417
Thank you, Jesus."
00:08:58.451 --> 00:09:00.486
But I have to deal with everyseed of fear or it will grow and
00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:04.156
deal with me.
00:09:04.190 --> 00:09:08.527
Fear is not okay.
00:09:08.561 --> 00:09:09.962
Say that out loud,"Fear is not okay."
00:09:09.996 --> 00:09:13.799
A fear-filled mind will believethe ideas and the lies of
00:09:13.833 --> 00:09:17.336
the enemy.
00:09:17.370 --> 00:09:19.505
And when people try to put fearin you through their actions or
00:09:19.538 --> 00:09:22.575
their words, show Satan you meanbusiness by refusing to move
00:09:22.608 --> 00:09:27.613
from your stance on God's Word.
00:09:27.647 --> 00:09:30.583
Fear calls comes up,you stand on God's Word.
00:09:30.616 --> 00:09:33.686
Fear comes up, you quote,you say out loud God's Word.
00:09:33.719 --> 00:09:36.722
You stand on it no matter what.
00:09:36.756 --> 00:09:38.290
So, that means you're gonnawatch your words, amen.
00:09:38.324 --> 00:09:41.027
When you're fightingfear, watch your words.
00:09:41.060 --> 00:09:43.162
Look at Proverbs 18:21.
00:09:43.195 --> 00:09:45.564
Now, we've taught from Proverbs18:21 that before you are
00:09:45.598 --> 00:09:49.702
concerned about saying the rightwords, make sure you believe
00:09:49.735 --> 00:09:52.705
what Jesus has already done.
00:09:52.738 --> 00:09:55.474
They believed, andthey also spoke.
00:09:55.508 --> 00:09:58.978
We believe, and we also speak.
00:09:59.011 --> 00:10:01.747
And so, our speaking comesfrom what we believe.
00:10:01.781 --> 00:10:03.916
We believe in Jesus, and webelieve in the finished works of
00:10:03.949 --> 00:10:06.285
Jesus Christ.
00:10:06.318 --> 00:10:08.154
What does he say here?
00:10:08.187 --> 00:10:09.722
He says, "Death and life arein the power of the tongue, and
00:10:09.755 --> 00:10:12.792
they that love it shalleat the fruit thereof."
00:10:12.825 --> 00:10:15.761
So, the worst thing you can doin a pressure situation where
00:10:15.795 --> 00:10:18.998
fear-filled emotions are tryingto overwhelm you, the worst
00:10:19.031 --> 00:10:23.269
thing you can do is to speaknegatively and agree with the
00:10:23.302 --> 00:10:26.205
fear you feel onthe inside of you.
00:10:26.238 --> 00:10:29.709
That's the worstthing you could do.
00:10:29.742 --> 00:10:31.277
I guarantee you the number-oneconversation in the world today
00:10:31.310 --> 00:10:34.313
is, "What do you thinkabout that virus?
00:10:34.346 --> 00:10:36.248
What do you think abouteverything that's going on?"
00:10:36.282 --> 00:10:38.517
And I'm talking about, whatdo you think about how fear is
00:10:38.551 --> 00:10:43.522
tricking everybody?
00:10:43.556 --> 00:10:47.927
And what are the consequencesfor operating in the ignorance
00:10:47.960 --> 00:10:52.198
of fear and not understandingwhat happens when you become the
00:10:52.231 --> 00:10:57.369
source of promoting fear?
00:10:57.403 --> 00:10:59.772
I understand information, butwhat happens when you become the
00:10:59.805 --> 00:11:01.807
source of promoting fear?
00:11:01.841 --> 00:11:03.776
What are the consequences?
00:11:03.809 --> 00:11:05.344
What are the domino effect whenyou look up one day and the
00:11:05.377 --> 00:11:09.048
virus is all gone, but nowthere's an epidemic of fear?
00:11:09.081 --> 00:11:15.187
How do you deal with that?
00:11:15.221 --> 00:11:17.590
"Well, I don'tknow if I believe."
00:11:17.623 --> 00:11:19.358
Well, you better hurry up andfigure it out because this thing
00:11:19.391 --> 00:11:24.096
is becoming very, very simple.
00:11:24.130 --> 00:11:27.166
God or Satan, heaven or hell?
00:11:27.199 --> 00:11:30.369
And you going around talkingabout what you believe and what
00:11:30.402 --> 00:11:31.837
you don't believe.
00:11:31.871 --> 00:11:33.172
I tell you what, you keepwalking in that fear and let
00:11:33.205 --> 00:11:35.941
something get you and then youdie, your whole doctrine
00:11:35.975 --> 00:11:38.577
gonna change.
00:11:38.611 --> 00:11:41.647
This is a serioustime right now.
00:11:41.680 --> 00:11:44.383
Locusts invading the earth,crops being ate up, epidemic
00:11:44.416 --> 00:11:50.122
worldwide, fear.
00:11:50.156 --> 00:11:54.527
Satan's just laughing.
00:11:54.560 --> 00:11:56.862
I finally got a platform toexecute whatever I want to
00:11:56.896 --> 00:12:01.100
execute on the planet becausethey're ignorant of my
00:12:01.133 --> 00:12:05.771
operation, and Christianpeople can't be ignorant.
00:12:05.805 --> 00:12:14.246
You are therighteousness of God.
00:12:14.280 --> 00:12:17.049
You have a covenant of God.
00:12:17.082 --> 00:12:22.321
Proverbs chapter4:23, look at this.
00:12:22.354 --> 00:12:28.627
Guard your mind.
00:12:28.661 --> 00:12:31.230
Guard your mind.
00:12:31.263 --> 00:12:33.632
Why?
00:12:33.666 --> 00:12:36.068
Verse 23 says, "Keep," thatword "keep" means guard.
00:12:36.101 --> 00:12:39.839
"Keep your heart withall diligence," why?
00:12:39.872 --> 00:12:42.174
"For out of it arethe issues of life."
00:12:42.208 --> 00:12:45.678
The issue of life, theissues of your life.
00:12:45.711 --> 00:12:49.148
Another translation saysthe forces of your life.
00:12:49.181 --> 00:12:51.684
So, it says guard your heart,for out of your heart comes the
00:12:51.717 --> 00:12:55.254
issues of life.
00:12:55.287 --> 00:12:56.922
Your issues comeout of your heart.
00:12:56.956 --> 00:12:59.391
So, if you're gonna guard yourheart, you gotta guard your eye
00:12:59.425 --> 00:13:01.227
gate, your ear gate,and your mouth gate.
00:13:01.260 --> 00:13:04.930
Whatever gets in your heartcomes through your eyes, your
00:13:04.964 --> 00:13:07.266
ears, and your mouth.
00:13:07.299 --> 00:13:09.034
What are you watching?
00:13:09.068 --> 00:13:10.536
What are you hearing?
00:13:10.569 --> 00:13:11.971
What are you saying?
00:13:12.004 --> 00:13:14.039
Has the potential of enteringinto your heart and the issue of
00:13:14.073 --> 00:13:16.208
your life comesout of your heart.
00:13:16.242 --> 00:13:19.912
How many more sick people arewe gonna have as a result of the
00:13:19.945 --> 00:13:26.752
issue that came out their heart?
00:13:26.785 --> 00:13:29.722
How many folks are gonna containsome kind of crazy disease
00:13:29.755 --> 00:13:32.591
because of the stressand the pressure of fear?
00:13:32.625 --> 00:13:39.064
I tell you, boy, the governmentneed a preacher that know
00:13:39.098 --> 00:13:45.004
the Word.
00:13:45.037 --> 00:13:51.677
What are the--what'sthe domino effect?
00:13:51.710 --> 00:13:55.514
What's the domino effect?
00:13:55.547 --> 00:13:57.216
You know, when people go to thedoctor and they hear that they
00:13:57.249 --> 00:14:01.787
have cancer, in some cases,the cancer doesn't kill them.
00:14:01.820 --> 00:14:07.326
It's the stress of it.
00:14:07.359 --> 00:14:11.230
They end up dying of a heartattack or something else.
00:14:11.263 --> 00:14:16.335
That's what I'm tryingto get people to see.
00:14:16.368 --> 00:14:18.837
I am not against your littlepractical things you do, but
00:14:18.871 --> 00:14:22.608
you, you got to getthe fear under control.
00:14:22.641 --> 00:14:30.282
They're creating a--what do theycall that, something to combat
00:14:30.316 --> 00:14:34.320
the virus?
00:14:34.353 --> 00:14:36.488
A vaccine.
00:14:36.522 --> 00:14:39.158
And Jesus gave you avaccine against fear.
00:14:39.191 --> 00:14:45.264
The Word of God is yourvaccine against fear.
00:14:45.297 --> 00:14:48.500
And in this case, you don't haveto take a dose of fear in order
00:14:53.138 --> 00:14:55.674
to get rid of fear.
00:14:55.708 --> 00:14:58.310
For we walk by faith.
00:15:03.515 --> 00:15:06.485
What we meditate on in abundancewill eventually overtake and
00:15:11.957 --> 00:15:15.227
overwhelm our lives.
00:15:15.260 --> 00:15:18.230
What are you meditatingon in abundance?
00:15:18.263 --> 00:15:19.698
Look at 2 Corinthians 10:5.
00:15:19.732 --> 00:15:21.900
2 Corinthians 10:5.
00:15:21.934 --> 00:15:24.536
Some say, "What you alldoing attending church?"
00:15:24.570 --> 00:15:26.405
I'm trying to get youdrunk on the Word.
00:15:26.438 --> 00:15:29.308
I want you to so full of theWord when you walk out of here
00:15:29.341 --> 00:15:31.510
this morning, you gonna walk outlike a giant like, "What's up?
00:15:31.543 --> 00:15:35.180
What's up?"
00:15:35.214 --> 00:15:36.548
You're gonna like,"You want some of me?
00:15:36.582 --> 00:15:37.950
Come on, you want some of me?
00:15:37.983 --> 00:15:39.551
You want some of me?
00:15:39.585 --> 00:15:40.953
Bam, shut up.
00:15:40.986 --> 00:15:42.554
You want some of me?"
00:15:42.588 --> 00:15:43.956
Now, this is not a person we'redoing that to, it's fear that
00:15:43.989 --> 00:15:45.958
we're doing that to.
00:15:45.991 --> 00:15:49.328
Go home, "We arrested manypeople from World Changers
00:15:49.361 --> 00:15:51.430
because they went out and start,just start slapping people."
00:15:51.463 --> 00:15:54.800
You remember that movie withBernie Mac going down there,
00:15:54.833 --> 00:15:56.568
he's just slapping people, bam.
00:15:56.602 --> 00:15:59.438
2 Corinthians 10, verse 5.
00:15:59.471 --> 00:16:00.973
Now, watch this.
00:16:01.006 --> 00:16:02.408
How do I combatthe fear thought?
00:16:02.441 --> 00:16:06.311
In other words, I'm watching thenews and these thoughts of fear
00:16:06.345 --> 00:16:09.915
are just in my head, and I'mtrying to get my head right.
00:16:09.948 --> 00:16:15.154
The Bible says, "Castingdown imaginations.
00:16:15.187 --> 00:16:17.956
Cast down every high thing thatexalteth itself against the
00:16:17.990 --> 00:16:21.293
knowledge of God.
00:16:21.326 --> 00:16:24.563
Bringing into captivity," what?
00:16:24.596 --> 00:16:26.698
"Every thought to theobedience of Christ."
00:16:26.732 --> 00:16:30.335
You mean, we cancapture thoughts?
00:16:30.369 --> 00:16:33.439
Yeah, you can capture every fearthought and make it obey what
00:16:33.472 --> 00:16:39.344
the Word says, but you do notcapture thoughts with thoughts.
00:16:39.378 --> 00:16:44.616
You capture thoughts with words.
00:16:44.650 --> 00:16:47.653
So, if you're thinking all ofthe fear thoughts, you gotta
00:16:47.686 --> 00:16:50.522
open your mouth up andspeak what the Word says.
00:16:50.556 --> 00:16:54.359
Notice what he says.
00:16:54.393 --> 00:16:55.928
He says, Every thought, bringit to the obedience of Christ.
00:16:55.961 --> 00:16:59.832
Make it subject to the things ofChrist, make it subject to the
00:16:59.865 --> 00:17:03.569
Word of God, and you openyour mouth to do that.
00:17:03.602 --> 00:17:09.007
You speak to that fear.
00:17:09.041 --> 00:17:11.143
You speak what?
00:17:11.176 --> 00:17:12.544
You speak what the Word says.
00:17:12.578 --> 00:17:13.946
You speak the promises ofGod concerning that fear.
00:17:13.979 --> 00:17:18.484
And when you cast thatimagination down, those thoughts
00:17:18.517 --> 00:17:21.753
will not be able tobuild in your life.
00:17:21.787 --> 00:17:25.324
Now, 2 Corinthians 4:4,you're familiar with this.
00:17:25.357 --> 00:17:29.228
There's a devil loose.
00:17:29.261 --> 00:17:34.500
There's an enemy that we have,and that enemy has a very
00:17:34.533 --> 00:17:41.840
clear objective.
00:17:41.874 --> 00:17:44.743
Get rid of you who believe, whomay believe, who thought about
00:17:44.776 --> 00:17:51.650
believing, get rid of them.
00:17:51.683 --> 00:17:54.253
"In whom the god of this world,"small g referring to Satan.
00:17:54.286 --> 00:17:58.190
Now, notice what he does forpeople who don't believe.
00:17:58.223 --> 00:18:02.027
The Bible says he blinds theminds of them which believe not.
00:18:02.060 --> 00:18:06.665
There are a lot of blindpeople in earth right now.
00:18:06.698 --> 00:18:09.902
Dear God, we cannot affordto fall in that trap.
00:18:09.935 --> 00:18:12.638
God's depending on us.
00:18:12.671 --> 00:18:14.406
There's a lot of blindpeople in earth right now.
00:18:14.439 --> 00:18:16.675
It's so easy to talk Jesus, andtalk how much you love him, and
00:18:16.708 --> 00:18:19.845
talk how much faith you got, andthen when a real issue show up,
00:18:19.878 --> 00:18:25.484
we gonna see sheep and goat.
00:18:25.517 --> 00:18:31.023
When the real issue show up,that's what I'm saying.
00:18:31.056 --> 00:18:33.091
There's some preachers thatare afraid to even say
00:18:33.125 --> 00:18:34.760
what I just said.
00:18:34.793 --> 00:18:36.929
"Well, what areyou trying to say?"
00:18:36.962 --> 00:18:38.297
You know what I'm tryingto say, you blind.
00:18:38.330 --> 00:18:40.399
You can't see.
00:18:40.432 --> 00:18:42.968
Glory be to God.
00:18:43.001 --> 00:18:44.903
But we who believe can see'cause you don't understand the
00:18:44.937 --> 00:18:50.242
greatest accomplishment Satanhas ever made is to get you not
00:18:50.275 --> 00:18:53.812
to believe in it.
00:18:53.845 --> 00:18:56.548
Satan ain't trying to getyou to believe in him.
00:18:56.582 --> 00:18:58.483
He can work a lot better whenyou go around saying, "I don't
00:18:58.517 --> 00:19:00.452
believe in Satan.
00:19:00.485 --> 00:19:01.920
I don't believe in Satan.
00:19:01.954 --> 00:19:03.555
I don't believe in God.
00:19:03.589 --> 00:19:04.957
I don't believe in heaven.
00:19:04.990 --> 00:19:06.358
I don't believe in nothing."
00:19:06.391 --> 00:19:07.759
Satan like, "Ooh, I'mma tearyou up, you don't even know it."
00:19:07.793 --> 00:19:09.161
'Cause you don't believenothing, you don't
00:19:09.194 --> 00:19:11.396
believe nothing.
00:19:11.430 --> 00:19:12.864
And Satan says, "What I'm gonnado is I'm gonna take those who
00:19:12.898 --> 00:19:14.700
believe not, and I'm gonna blindtheir minds so that the light of
00:19:14.733 --> 00:19:19.638
the glorious gospel of Christwho's the image of God should
00:19:19.671 --> 00:19:24.776
shine unto them."
00:19:24.810 --> 00:19:26.778
He says, "I don't want them tohear this gospel because if they
00:19:26.812 --> 00:19:29.615
hear this gospel, Igotta blame their mind.
00:19:29.648 --> 00:19:31.717
I gotta blind their mind."
00:19:31.750 --> 00:19:34.186
The people you know that walkaround blind, they don't have
00:19:34.219 --> 00:19:38.156
a clue.
00:19:38.190 --> 00:19:40.993
And my faith is not in men.
00:19:41.026 --> 00:19:46.131
My faith is in God because I'mnot gonna be going crazy trying
00:19:46.164 --> 00:19:50.936
to figure out who touched that,who didn't touch that, or, you
00:19:50.969 --> 00:19:54.039
know, how many times they wipe.
00:19:54.072 --> 00:19:58.310
Now, we're responsible,whatever you want to say.
00:19:58.343 --> 00:19:59.978
If you go to our Internet, wegot a whole list of all the
00:20:00.012 --> 00:20:01.980
things that are going on in thisfacility, how it's been wiped
00:20:02.014 --> 00:20:05.083
down, how it's been disinfected.
00:20:05.117 --> 00:20:06.785
We use the Georgia Facility Codeto make sure we do all we need
00:20:06.818 --> 00:20:09.388
to do.
00:20:09.421 --> 00:20:10.989
Your seat's gonna be wiped down,everything gonna be wiped down.
00:20:11.023 --> 00:20:13.925
We're gonna keep doing it.
00:20:13.959 --> 00:20:15.560
We using the right kind of stuffthat's supposed to kill this
00:20:15.594 --> 00:20:17.596
and that, and we wiping, andwe wiping, and we wiping.
00:20:17.629 --> 00:20:20.432
You good while you're here,but I don't know where
00:20:20.465 --> 00:20:22.734
you going after you go here.
00:20:22.768 --> 00:20:25.337
I don't know, but I'm gonna makesure you ain't gonna be able to
00:20:25.370 --> 00:20:29.074
say, "I got something here."
00:20:29.107 --> 00:20:33.078
Got hand sanitizer everywhere.
00:20:33.111 --> 00:20:35.714
Children wiping themself allover the place, and everybody
00:20:35.747 --> 00:20:39.351
just wiping themself down good.
00:20:39.384 --> 00:20:42.387
Ladies and gentlemen, I don'ttrust in horses and chariots.
00:20:47.693 --> 00:20:56.001
I trust in the only one that canhelp me right now, and what's
00:20:58.003 --> 00:21:03.175
his name?
00:21:03.208 --> 00:21:04.943
- congregation: Jesus!
00:21:04.976 --> 00:21:06.845
Creflo: So, there's aGod of the world.
00:21:06.878 --> 00:21:08.547
You have a enemy, youhave a devil that's loose.
00:21:08.580 --> 00:21:10.015
And what does he come to do?
00:21:10.048 --> 00:21:11.550
John chapter 10:10.
00:21:11.583 --> 00:21:13.652
I want you to see it.
00:21:13.685 --> 00:21:15.153
I know you know it, but I wantit to go through your eyes, and
00:21:15.187 --> 00:21:17.789
your ears, and then comeout your mouth, praise God.
00:21:17.823 --> 00:21:20.525
I'm trying to get you drunkin the Spirit this morning.
00:21:20.559 --> 00:21:23.795
You come out say,"What'd y'all drink?"
00:21:23.829 --> 00:21:25.330
We drunk some newwine this morning.
00:21:25.364 --> 00:21:27.099
Praise the Lord.
00:21:27.132 --> 00:21:28.800
The thief, so hecalls him a thief.
00:21:28.834 --> 00:21:31.436
The thief cometh not,but for to, what?
00:21:31.470 --> 00:21:34.473
Steal, and to what?
00:21:34.506 --> 00:21:36.041
Kill, and to what?
00:21:36.074 --> 00:21:37.709
Destroy.
00:21:37.743 --> 00:21:40.045
But he says, "I am come thatthey might have life and have it
00:21:40.078 --> 00:21:46.084
more abundantly to thefull until it overflows."
00:21:46.118 --> 00:21:51.390
Jesus says, "Don't blame mefor the killing, stealing,
00:21:51.423 --> 00:21:53.792
and destroying."
00:21:53.825 --> 00:21:55.594
I don't want to hear nobodytalking about that the Lord must
00:21:55.627 --> 00:21:57.829
have wanted to come down andpick some lilies out of his
00:21:57.863 --> 00:22:01.266
garden and bring them out,and that's what happened.
00:22:01.299 --> 00:22:04.136
No.
00:22:04.169 --> 00:22:06.338
He says, "I ain't gotnothing to do with that.
00:22:06.371 --> 00:22:10.342
I come that you might have lifeand have it more abundantly."
00:22:10.375 --> 00:22:13.845
But there is a devil that'sloose, and he wants to kill, and
00:22:13.879 --> 00:22:16.982
he wants to steal, andhe wants to destroy.
00:22:17.015 --> 00:22:19.551
Sometimes we act like God'sthe only one in the movie.
00:22:19.584 --> 00:22:24.356
There's some supportive actors.
00:22:24.389 --> 00:22:27.626
You, Satan, your decisions.
00:22:27.659 --> 00:22:36.301
No, I believe God.
00:22:36.334 --> 00:22:38.570
I'm gonna trust him.
00:22:38.603 --> 00:22:40.505
I'm gonna trust him.
00:22:40.539 --> 00:22:43.775
How many times have you had totrust God in situations that
00:22:43.809 --> 00:22:46.745
were rough?
00:22:46.778 --> 00:22:48.213
How many times haveyou had to trust him?
00:22:48.246 --> 00:22:49.848
And how many timesdid he bring you out?
00:22:49.881 --> 00:22:51.950
And how many timesdid he lift you up?
00:22:51.983 --> 00:22:53.952
And how many times didhe take care of it?
00:22:53.985 --> 00:22:56.388
And how many timesdid he have your back?
00:22:56.421 --> 00:22:59.458
Is this any differentthan any of those times?
00:22:59.491 --> 00:23:02.894
You need to count yourblessings, hallelujah.
00:23:02.928 --> 00:23:05.363
You need to namethem one by one.
00:23:05.397 --> 00:23:07.299
You need to have a flashback andlook at what he's already done.
00:23:07.332 --> 00:23:12.737
I'm not talking about those whodon't believe, but I'm talking
00:23:19.044 --> 00:23:22.914
about those of youwho've experienced him.
00:23:22.948 --> 00:23:29.921
I'm not here trying tobe politically correct.
00:23:29.955 --> 00:23:32.991
Leave that up tothe politicians.
00:23:33.024 --> 00:23:34.593
I'm not a politician.
00:23:34.626 --> 00:23:36.061
I am a, I am a Holy Ghost,sanctified, Bible-believing,

I am not trying to bepolitically correct.
00:23:48.473 --> 00:23:50.909
There is a God thatsits high and looks low.
00:23:50.942 --> 00:23:53.678
There is a God that'sgiven me a promise.
00:23:53.712 --> 00:23:56.381
There is a God that Ihave a covenant with.
00:23:56.414 --> 00:23:59.217
That's what I'm talking about.
