- FEMALE ANNOUNCER: TONIGHT,
00:00:01.230 --> 00:00:02.170
FROM LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA,
00:00:02.170 --> 00:00:03.130
AUTHOR, PRESIDENT, AND FOUNDER
00:00:03.130 --> 00:00:05.170
OF ANDREW WOMMACK MINISTRIES AND
00:00:05.170 --> 00:00:06.140
CHARIS BIBLE SCHOOL,
00:00:06.140 --> 00:00:07.190
ANDREW WOMMACK,
00:00:07.190 --> 00:00:08.290
- MATT CROUCH: TODAY ON
00:00:47.080 --> 00:00:48.180
"PRAISE,"
00:00:48.180 --> 00:00:49.290
WE ARE "LIVING IN GOD'S BEST."
00:00:50.130 --> 00:00:53.130
OUR GUEST ALL HOUR,
00:00:53.130 --> 00:00:54.120
ANDREW WOMMACK.
00:00:54.120 --> 00:00:56.100
WHAT IS IN THIS BOOK THAT WE
00:00:56.100 --> 00:00:58.000
NEED TO KNOW?
00:00:58.000 --> 00:00:59.260
WHAT ARE WE TALKIN' ABOUT TODAY?
00:01:00.020 --> 00:01:03.020
- ANDREW WOMMACK: WELL, THERE'S
00:01:03.020 --> 00:01:03.270
A COUPLE OF THINGS, MATT.
00:01:03.270 --> 00:01:04.200
MOST PEOPLE AREN'T EVEN
00:01:07.130 --> 00:01:08.110
BELIEVING FOR GOD'S BEST.
00:01:08.110 --> 00:01:09.130
I THINK THEY MAKE THE MISTAKE OF
00:01:09.130 --> 00:01:10.050
LOOKING AROUND AND KIND OF DOIN'
00:01:10.050 --> 00:01:11.080
AN INVENTORY HOW EVERYBODY ELSE
00:01:11.080 --> 00:01:13.010
IS DOIN', AND THEY JUST LIVE UP
00:01:13.010 --> 00:01:14.130
BUT GOD MADE US FOR SUPERNATURAL
00:01:18.180 --> 00:01:19.110
THINGS.
00:01:19.110 --> 00:01:20.060
SO THE FIRST STEP IS PEOPLE HAVE
00:01:20.060 --> 00:01:20.290
TO BEGIN TO START BELIEVING FOR
00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:24.120
GOD'S BEST, AND, YOU KNOW, WE
00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:25.140
COULD SPEND A WHOLE PROGRAM ON
00:01:25.140 --> 00:01:27.250
THIS.
00:01:27.250 --> 00:01:28.150
I KNOW WE WANNA MOVE ON TO OTHER
00:01:28.150 --> 00:01:29.080
THINGS, BUT IT IS NOT GOD'S BEST
00:01:29.080 --> 00:01:31.040
TO BE SICK THE WAY THAT PEOPLE
00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:32.270
ARE, AND, YET THEY'VE ACCEPTED
00:01:32.270 --> 00:01:33.270
THIS.
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:37.000
THEY THINK THAT WHEN YOU'RE OVER
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:37.230
40, YA HAVE TO START ACTING THIS
00:01:37.230 --> 00:01:38.210
WAY AND STUFF, AND IF YOU ACCEPT
00:01:38.210 --> 00:01:39.130
THAT, YOU LIMIT GOD'S BEST.
00:01:39.130 --> 00:01:42.130
ONE OF THE GREATEST THINGS THAT
00:01:43.000 --> 00:01:46.000
GOD EVER TOLD ME WAS
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:47.040
PSALM 78:41, AND IT SAYS, IN
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:47.250
THEIR HEART, THEY TURNED BACK
00:01:47.250 --> 00:01:48.180
UNTO EGYPT, AND THEY "LIMITED
00:01:48.180 --> 00:01:50.070
THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL."
00:01:50.130 --> 00:01:53.130
- MATT: WOW.
00:01:53.130 --> 00:01:55.080
- ANDREW: AND GOD SPOKE TO ME
00:01:55.080 --> 00:01:56.060
THAT I WAS LIMITING HIM, AND
00:01:56.060 --> 00:01:57.020
WHEN I MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS, MY
00:01:57.020 --> 00:01:58.240
LIFE, MY MINISTRY, EVERYTHING
00:01:58.240 --> 00:02:00.150
HAS, I MEAN, GONE UP 25 OR 30
00:02:00.150 --> 00:02:02.070
TIMES SINCE THAT.
00:02:02.260 --> 00:02:05.260
SO WE LIMIT GOD BY SETTLING FOR
00:02:05.260 --> 00:02:08.040
LESS.
00:02:08.040 --> 00:02:09.140
SO THE VERY FIRST THING IS
00:02:09.170 --> 00:02:12.170
PEOPLE HAVE TO, KIND OF, BE
00:02:12.170 --> 00:02:13.290
GIVEN A HOLY DISSATISFACTION
00:02:13.290 --> 00:02:15.020
WITH BEIN' LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE,
00:02:15.020 --> 00:02:16.270
AND WE NEED TO START LIVING UP
00:02:16.270 --> 00:02:17.210
TO GOD'S STANDARDS.
00:02:17.210 --> 00:02:19.210
SO THAT'S WHAT THIS FIRST PART
00:02:19.210 --> 00:02:22.050
OF THIS BOOK IS ABOUT, AND THEN
00:02:22.050 --> 00:02:23.030
THE SECOND PART OF THE BOOK
00:02:23.030 --> 00:02:24.260
BEGINS TO START CONTRASTING A
00:02:24.260 --> 00:02:26.150
MIRACLE AND A BLESSING AS TWO
00:02:26.150 --> 00:02:28.220
DIFFERENT DELIVERY SYSTEMS OF
00:02:28.220 --> 00:02:31.090
RECEIVING FROM GOD.
00:02:31.090 --> 00:02:34.010
AND, YOU KNOW, MATT, IF WE HAD
00:02:34.010 --> 00:02:35.140
TWO DOORS UP HERE AND ONE OF 'EM
00:02:35.140 --> 00:02:36.290
SAID "MIRACLE," THE OTHER ONE
00:02:36.290 --> 00:02:38.070
SAID "BLESSING," I BET YOU MOST
00:02:38.070 --> 00:02:39.060
PEOPLE WILL SAY, "I WANT THE
00:02:39.060 --> 00:02:40.210
MIRACLE."
00:02:40.210 --> 00:02:41.180
BUT DID YOU KNOW A MIRACLE IS
00:02:41.180 --> 00:02:42.220
A BLESSING IS THE WAY THAT GOD
00:02:46.190 --> 00:02:47.110
INTENDED TO DO THINGS.
00:02:47.110 --> 00:02:50.000
IN GENESIS CHAPTER 1, IT SAYS,
00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:51.120
"GOD CREATED THE HEAVENS AND THE
00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:52.040
EARTH."
00:02:52.040 --> 00:02:53.120
HE BLESSED ALL OF THESE THINGS.
00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:54.040
AND THEN IT SAYS IN VERSE 31,
00:02:54.040 --> 00:02:55.130
"HE LOOKED AT EVERYTHING HE HAD
00:02:55.130 --> 00:02:57.110
'BEHOLD, IT WAS VERY GOOD.'"
00:03:00.230 --> 00:03:02.270
GOD CREATED THIS ENTIRE UNIVERSE
00:03:02.270 --> 00:03:04.100
AND OUR BODIES SO THAT THEY
00:03:04.100 --> 00:03:07.040
SHOULD HEAL THEMSELVES.
00:03:07.040 --> 00:03:09.180
EVERYTHING SHOULD WORK, AND GOD
00:03:09.180 --> 00:03:11.180
CREATED IT GOOD, AND THERE ARE
00:03:11.180 --> 00:03:13.000
SPIRITUAL AND PHYSICAL NATURAL
00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:15.170
LAWS THAT GOD CREATED, AND THEY
00:03:15.170 --> 00:03:16.150
WERE ALL GOOD.
00:03:16.210 --> 00:03:19.210
A MIRACLE IS A SUPERSEDING OR A
00:03:19.210 --> 00:03:22.040
SUSPENSION OF GOD'S LAWS, AND SO
00:03:22.040 --> 00:03:24.110
IN ORDER TO GET A MIRACLE, YOU
00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:27.280
HAVE TO BE IN A CRISIS SITUATION
00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:29.030
BECAUSE IT'S NOT GOD'S WILL TO
00:03:29.030 --> 00:03:31.100
SUSPEND THESE THINGS.
00:03:31.100 --> 00:03:33.200
WHEN HE MADE 'EM, THEY WERE ALL
00:03:33.200 --> 00:03:34.260
GOOD, AND I DON'T BELIEVE THAT
00:03:34.260 --> 00:03:36.180
GOD REALLY WANTS TO PROVIDE ALL
00:03:36.180 --> 00:03:39.000
OF OUR NEEDS BY A MIRACLE.
00:03:39.070 --> 00:03:42.070
NOW, THIS NEEDS A LITTLE BIT OF
00:03:42.070 --> 00:03:43.110
EXPLANATION BECAUSE I KNOW THAT,
00:03:43.110 --> 00:03:44.210
MAN, WE'RE ALL SPIRIT-FILLED,
00:03:44.210 --> 00:03:45.290
AND WE BELIEVE IN MIRACLES, AND
00:03:45.290 --> 00:03:47.090
I'VE HAD A LOT OF MIRACLES.
00:03:47.090 --> 00:03:49.220
I AM NOT AGAINST A MIRACLE.
00:03:49.220 --> 00:03:51.010
IF YOU'RE IN A CRISIS SITUATION,
00:03:51.010 --> 00:03:52.210
A MIRACLE MIGHT BE THE BEST
00:03:52.210 --> 00:03:54.160
THING FOR YOU AT THAT MOMENT.
00:03:54.160 --> 00:03:55.290
- MATT: SURE.
00:03:55.290 --> 00:03:57.000
- ANDREW: SO I'M NOT AGAINST
00:03:57.000 --> 00:03:57.210
MIRACLES, BUT I'M SAYIN', YEAH,
00:03:57.210 --> 00:03:58.130
A BLESSING WILL ACTUALLY PREVENT
00:03:58.130 --> 00:03:59.230
YOUR NEED FOR A MIRACLE ONCE YOU
00:03:59.230 --> 00:04:01.070
ENTER INTO IT.
00:04:01.200 --> 00:04:04.200
GOD CREATED THESE BODIES TO
00:04:04.200 --> 00:04:07.020
FUNCTION IN A WAY THAT WE SHOULD
00:04:07.160 --> 00:04:10.160
BE ABLE TO WALK IN HEALTH, AND,
00:04:10.160 --> 00:04:11.080
YET, YOU KNOW, IF A PERSON IS
00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:13.250
OVEREATING, IF A PERSON IS A
00:04:13.250 --> 00:04:15.110
COUCH POTATO, IS A PERSON THAT'S
00:04:15.110 --> 00:04:17.210
SMOKING, IF THEY'RE DRINKING, IF
00:04:17.210 --> 00:04:18.190
THEY'RE DOIN' DRUGS, YOU COULD
00:04:18.190 --> 00:04:20.130
DESTROY YOUR HEALTH, AND YOU MAY
00:04:20.130 --> 00:04:21.280
NEED A MIRACLE TO BE ABLE TO GET
00:04:21.280 --> 00:04:23.230
BACK ON TRACK, BUT THAT IS NOT
00:04:23.230 --> 00:04:25.180
THE WAY GOD WANTS IT.
00:04:25.180 --> 00:04:27.210
HE WOULD RATHER YOU LEARN TO
00:04:27.210 --> 00:04:29.040
COOPERATE WITH THE NATURAL AND
00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:30.290
THE SPIRITUAL LAWS THAT HE MADE
00:04:30.290 --> 00:04:33.000
AND JUST WALK IN DIVINE HEALTH.
00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:35.220
DIVINE HEALTH IS BETTER THAN
00:04:35.220 --> 00:04:36.190
DIVINE HEALING.
00:04:36.190 --> 00:04:37.290
- MATT: YES.
00:04:37.290 --> 00:04:39.080
- ANDREW: AND SO THIS IS
00:04:39.080 --> 00:04:40.170
BASICALLY WHAT THIS BOOK IS
00:04:40.170 --> 00:04:41.090
ABOUT, THAT GOD'S BEST FOR US IS
00:04:41.090 --> 00:04:43.070
TO WALK IN THE SPIRITUAL AND THE
00:04:44.040 --> 00:04:47.040
NATURAL LAWS THAT HE CREATED,
00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:48.190
AND IF WE DO THAT, THEN YOU
00:04:48.190 --> 00:04:50.240
DON'T EVEN HAVE TO HAVE A
00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:51.190
MIRACLE.
00:04:51.190 --> 00:04:53.000
- MATT: WOW.
00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:53.230
- LAURIE: WOW.
00:04:53.230 --> 00:04:55.100
- MATT: OKAY, LET ME MAKE SURE
00:04:55.100 --> 00:04:56.020
I UNDERSTOOD THAT.
00:04:56.020 --> 00:04:56.250
SO LET'S RESET FOR A SECOND.
00:04:56.250 --> 00:04:58.270
FIRST OF ALL, WHEREVER YOU'RE
00:04:58.270 --> 00:04:59.180
WATCHING AROUND THE WORLD, WE
00:04:59.180 --> 00:05:00.280
WELCOME YOU TO "PRAISE."
00:05:00.280 --> 00:05:01.280
OUR GUEST ALL EVENING,
00:05:01.280 --> 00:05:03.270
ANDREW WOMMACK.
00:05:03.270 --> 00:05:05.090
- LAURIE: WELL, AND CAN I JUST
00:05:05.090 --> 00:05:06.170
ENCOURAGE PEOPLE, GRAB A PEN AND
00:05:06.170 --> 00:05:07.090
A PAPER.
00:05:07.090 --> 00:05:08.190
IF YOU'VE GOT YOUR BIBLE, GRAB
00:05:08.190 --> 00:05:09.110
YOUR BIBLE.
00:05:09.110 --> 00:05:10.080
WE'VE GOT MR. WOMMACK HERE!
00:05:10.080 --> 00:05:12.050
- MATT: WE'RE GETTIN' INTO IT!
00:05:12.050 --> 00:05:13.150
AND, BY THE WAY, I WANNA SAY
00:05:13.150 --> 00:05:14.240
WHILE WE'RE JUST SITTING HERE--
00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:15.160
AND, AGAIN, I'M GONNA TELL YOU
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:16.260
WHAT I THINK YOU JUST SAID--
00:05:16.260 --> 00:05:18.090
"GOSPEL TRUTH," ANDREW'S
00:05:18.090 --> 00:05:19.270
AIRS MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY AT
00:05:23.110 --> 00:05:24.200
6:30 A.M., EASTERN TIME, WHICH
00:05:24.200 --> 00:05:25.250
IS WHEN EVERYONE'S GETTIN' UP
00:05:25.250 --> 00:05:28.200
AND GETTIN' READY, 6:30 A.M.,
00:05:29.150 --> 00:05:32.150
EASTERN TIME, RIGHT HERE ON TBN,
00:05:32.150 --> 00:05:33.260
MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY, "GOSPEL
00:05:33.260 --> 00:05:35.040
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT-- THE
00:05:41.020 --> 00:05:41.210
FRAMEWORK OF OUR DISCUSSION IS
00:05:41.210 --> 00:05:42.250
"LIVING IN GOD'S BEST."
00:05:43.250 --> 00:05:46.250
WHAT I THINK I HEARD YOU SAY IS
00:05:46.250 --> 00:05:47.170
THAT, FIRST OF ALL, WE ARE
00:05:47.170 --> 00:05:48.060
SOMETIMES NOT LIVING UP TO GOD'S
00:05:49.080 --> 00:05:52.080
BEST-- MORE BOLDER, RARELY
00:05:54.080 --> 00:05:57.080
LIVING UP TO GOD'S BEST, OKAY?
00:05:57.080 --> 00:05:58.150
- ANDREW: THAT'S TRUE.
00:06:02.290 --> 00:06:05.290
- MATT: AND THAT BASICALLY
00:06:05.290 --> 00:06:06.190
WE'RE MAYBE SOMEWHAT RELIANT ON
00:06:06.190 --> 00:06:08.150
OR SEEKING A MIRACLE RATHER THAN
00:06:08.150 --> 00:06:09.070
SOMETHING THAT WE COULD HAVE
00:06:09.070 --> 00:06:10.230
CONTROL OVER, WHICH IS A
00:06:10.230 --> 00:06:11.170
BLESSING.
00:06:11.170 --> 00:06:13.160
- ANDREW: THAT'S RIGHT.
00:06:13.160 --> 00:06:14.050
- MATT: LIVING IN A BLESSING IS
00:06:14.050 --> 00:06:15.040
BETTER THAN MIRACLES BECAUSE
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:16.070
THAT MEANS THERE'S A CRISIS ON
00:06:16.070 --> 00:06:18.020
HAND, AND, YOU KNOW, AT SOME
00:06:18.020 --> 00:06:20.170
POINT, WE'RE GONNA UNPACK THIS,
00:06:20.170 --> 00:06:21.170
RIGHT?
00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:26.240
SO LET'S GET INTO THIS.
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:28.050
- ANDREW: WELL, LET ME GIVE AN
00:06:28.050 --> 00:06:28.270
ILLUSTRATION--
00:06:28.270 --> 00:06:30.160
- MATT: THAT'D BE GREAT.
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:31.050
- ANDREW: -- THAT WHEN MY WIFE
00:06:31.050 --> 00:06:32.050
AND I FIRST GOT STARTED IN
00:06:32.050 --> 00:06:32.240
MINISTRY, IT WAS MY FAULT.
00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:33.180
THIS IS NOT GOD DOIN' IT TO ME.
00:06:33.180 --> 00:06:34.280
IT WAS MY OWN STUPIDITY, BUT I
00:06:34.280 --> 00:06:36.180
WAS CALLED INTO MINISTRY, AND I
00:06:36.180 --> 00:06:38.230
FELT I WAS SINNING AGAINST GOD
00:06:38.230 --> 00:06:40.130
IF I WORKED A JOB BECAUSE HE HAD
00:06:40.130 --> 00:06:41.250
CALLED ME INTO MINISTRY, SO I
00:06:41.250 --> 00:06:43.060
QUIT EVERYTHING, AND I JUST WENT
00:06:44.170 --> 00:06:47.170
INTO FULL-TIME MINISTRY, AND I
00:06:47.170 --> 00:06:48.080
DIDN'T HAVE ANYBODY TO MINISTER
00:06:48.080 --> 00:06:49.010
TO.
00:06:49.010 --> 00:06:49.230
WE PASTORED A LITTLE CHURCH IN
00:06:49.230 --> 00:06:52.000
SEAGOVILLE, TEXAS, THAT HAD FIVE
00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:53.280
PEOPLE IN IT, AND I DID THAT FOR
00:06:53.280 --> 00:06:55.010
2 YEARS.
00:06:55.010 --> 00:06:57.060
AND, ANYWAY, FOR MAYBE 3 OR 4
00:06:57.060 --> 00:06:59.120
YEARS, WE STRUGGLED FINANCIALLY
00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:01.050
BECAUSE I WOULDN'T WORK.
00:07:01.050 --> 00:07:02.290
IT WASN'T BECAUSE I WASN'T
00:07:02.290 --> 00:07:04.060
WILLING TO WORK, BUT I JUST WAS
00:07:04.060 --> 00:07:05.220
WRONG IN MY DOCTRINE.
00:07:05.220 --> 00:07:07.220
SO, ANYWAY, WE NEEDED A MIRACLE
00:07:07.220 --> 00:07:09.240
TO EAT.
00:07:09.240 --> 00:07:10.290
WE WOULD GO TO THE STORE, AND WE
00:07:10.290 --> 00:07:12.210
WOULD TAKE $7, AND WE WOULD
00:07:12.210 --> 00:07:14.050
PRAY, AND I DON'T KNOW HOW IT
00:07:14.050 --> 00:07:16.080
HAPPENED, BUT WE'D COME OUT WITH
00:07:16.080 --> 00:07:17.050
THREE AND FOUR BAGS OF
00:07:17.050 --> 00:07:18.070
GROCERIES, MEAT AND STUFF.
00:07:18.070 --> 00:07:21.010
- MATT: I THINK THEY CALL THAT
00:07:21.010 --> 00:07:22.110
"SHOPLIFTING."
00:07:22.110 --> 00:07:23.290
[LAUGHTER]
00:07:23.290 --> 00:07:24.170
OKAY, SORRY.
00:07:24.170 --> 00:07:25.000
- ANDREW: IT WASN'T.
00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:25.230
- MATT: OKAY.
00:07:25.230 --> 00:07:26.120
- ANDREW: IT WAS A MIRACLE.
00:07:26.120 --> 00:07:27.110
- MATT: OKAY, GOT IT!
00:07:27.110 --> 00:07:28.280
- ANDREW: AND WE WOULD PRAY
00:07:28.280 --> 00:07:30.010
OVER OUR FOOD.
00:07:30.010 --> 00:07:31.110
[LAUGHTER]
00:07:31.110 --> 00:07:32.180
WE WOULD LITERALLY
00:07:32.180 --> 00:07:33.130
SEE OUR FOOD MULTIPLY.
00:07:33.130 --> 00:07:35.080
AND I RAN OUT OF GAS ONE TIME IN
00:07:35.080 --> 00:07:36.080
DOWNTOWN DALLAS.
00:07:36.080 --> 00:07:38.170
IT WAS 2 IN THE MORNING OR
00:07:38.170 --> 00:07:39.100
SOMETHIN' LIKE THIS, AND I
00:07:39.100 --> 00:07:40.140
DIDN'T HAVE ANY MONEY, DIDN'T
00:07:40.140 --> 00:07:42.000
HAVE A CREDIT CARD, AND I HAD
00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:43.280
MORE FAITH THAN I HAD MONEY, AND
00:07:43.280 --> 00:07:46.220
I JUST LAID HANDS ON THAT CAR
00:07:46.220 --> 00:07:48.090
AND PRAYED FOR IT, AND THAT
00:07:48.090 --> 00:07:49.240
THING RAN FOR A SOLID WEEK AND
00:07:49.240 --> 00:07:50.240
WITHOUT ANY GAS.
00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:53.030
NOW, SEE, THAT IS A SUPERSEDING
00:07:53.030 --> 00:07:55.130
OR A SUSPENSION OF A NATURAL
00:07:55.130 --> 00:07:57.260
LAW, AND THAT'S WHAT A MIRACLE
00:07:57.260 --> 00:07:58.180
IS.
00:07:58.180 --> 00:07:59.120
A MIRACLE IS OUTSIDE THE NORM.
00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:01.080
IT'S OUTSIDE OF NATURAL AND
00:08:01.080 --> 00:08:02.060
SPIRITUAL LAWS.
00:08:02.060 --> 00:08:04.170
IT'S SOMETHING THAT'S ABNORMAL.
00:08:04.170 --> 00:08:07.140
AND I'VE HAD 'EM, AND, I MEAN,
00:08:07.140 --> 00:08:09.000
PRAISE GOD, THE LORD BLESSED ME
00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:10.280
WITH IT, BUT THAT IS NOT GOD'S
00:08:10.280 --> 00:08:12.200
BEST.
00:08:12.200 --> 00:08:13.210
GOD DOESN'T WANT YOU TO JUST
00:08:13.210 --> 00:08:15.090
HAVE TO RUN OUT OF GAS AND PRAY
00:08:15.090 --> 00:08:16.290
OVER YOUR CAR.
00:08:16.290 --> 00:08:18.020
AND I DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY
00:08:18.020 --> 00:08:20.070
TO KEEP ANTIFREEZE IN MY CAR,
00:08:20.070 --> 00:08:21.270
AND THE BLOCK CRACKED, AND YOU
00:08:21.270 --> 00:08:24.080
COULD SEE THE CRACK IN THE
00:08:24.080 --> 00:08:25.000
BLOCK.
00:08:25.000 --> 00:08:26.090
ALL OF THE WATER POURED OUT, AND
00:08:26.090 --> 00:08:28.040
I DROVE THAT CAR FOR A YEAR WITH
00:08:28.040 --> 00:08:29.150
A CRACKED BLOCK, AND IT WAS A
00:08:29.150 --> 00:08:31.100
MIRACLE.
00:08:32.040 --> 00:08:35.040
AND IT WAS A SUPERSEDING OF
00:08:35.040 --> 00:08:35.240
NATURAL LAWS, BUT DID YOU KNOW
00:08:35.240 --> 00:08:37.150
THAT THAT WASN'T GOD'S BEST?
00:08:37.150 --> 00:08:38.050
- MATT: RIGHT.
00:08:38.050 --> 00:08:38.290
- ANDREW: AND I REMEMBER ONE
00:08:38.290 --> 00:08:40.050
DAY, I MEAN, THIS IS 20 YEARS
00:08:40.050 --> 00:08:41.150
AFTER ALL OF THESE THINGS, I WAS
00:08:41.150 --> 00:08:42.250
DRIVIN' ONE TIME, AND I WAS
00:08:42.250 --> 00:08:44.160
THINKIN', "GOD, IT HAS BEEN
00:08:44.160 --> 00:08:45.220
YEARS SINCE I HAD TO HAVE A
00:08:46.100 --> 00:08:49.100
MIRACLE TO EAT, A MIRACLE TO SEE
00:08:49.100 --> 00:08:50.130
MY CAR RUN, AND ALL THESE
00:08:50.290 --> 00:08:53.290
THINGS," AND I THOUGHT, "WHAT'S
00:08:53.290 --> 00:08:55.110
WRONG WITH ME?
00:08:55.110 --> 00:08:56.020
AM I NOT TRUSTIN' YOU THE WAY I
00:08:56.020 --> 00:08:56.280
WAS?"
00:08:56.280 --> 00:08:58.020
AND THE LORD JUST SPOKE TO ME,
00:08:58.020 --> 00:08:59.000
AND HE SAYS, "WOULD YOU LIKE TO
00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:00.130
GO BACK TO THOSE DAYS?"
00:09:00.130 --> 00:09:01.170
- MATT: OH, WOW!
00:09:01.170 --> 00:09:02.030
- ANDREW: AND I SAID, "NO, SIR,
00:09:02.030 --> 00:09:02.270
I WOULDN'T."
00:09:02.270 --> 00:09:04.010
AND THE LORD SHOWED ME THAT,
00:09:04.010 --> 00:09:06.280
SEE, I HAD TAPPED INTO THE
00:09:06.280 --> 00:09:08.230
BLESSING OF GOD NOW, AND IF I
00:09:08.230 --> 00:09:10.080
NEEDED SOMETHIN',
00:09:10.080 --> 00:09:11.120
IF I HAD A CAR THAT BROKE DOWN,
00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:12.140
I'D JUST GO BUY A BRAND-NEW CAR.
00:09:12.140 --> 00:09:13.110
- MATT: WOW.
00:09:13.110 --> 00:09:14.130
- ANDREW: AND THE BLESSING IS
00:09:14.130 --> 00:09:16.180
ACTUALLY BETTER THAN A MIRACLE
00:09:16.180 --> 00:09:17.190
BECAUSE HERE'S THREE DIFFERENT
00:09:17.190 --> 00:09:18.290
THINGS BETWEEN A BLESSING AND A
00:09:18.290 --> 00:09:20.100
MIRACLE: IF YOU HAVE TO HAVE A
00:09:20.100 --> 00:09:22.030
MIRACLE, IT MEANS YOU'RE IN A
00:09:22.030 --> 00:09:23.140
CRISIS SITUATION.
00:09:23.140 --> 00:09:24.270
GOD IS NOT GONNA SUSPEND HIS
00:09:24.270 --> 00:09:26.010
NATURAL OR SPIRITUAL LAWS, YOU
00:09:26.010 --> 00:09:28.050
KNOW, UNLESS THERE IS A CRISIS
00:09:28.050 --> 00:09:31.030
SITUATION THAT DEMANDS IT.
00:09:31.030 --> 00:09:33.040
SO IF YOU LIVE FROM MIRACLE TO
00:09:33.040 --> 00:09:34.120
MIRACLE, YOU'RE GONNA LIVE FROM
00:09:34.120 --> 00:09:35.160
CRISIS TO CRISIS, WHEREAS ONCE
00:09:35.160 --> 00:09:38.040
YOU GET INTO THE BLESSING OF
00:09:38.040 --> 00:09:39.230
GOD, A BLESSING OF GOD WILL
00:09:39.230 --> 00:09:41.190
PREVENT YOU EVEN NEEDING A
00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:44.240
MIRACLE.
00:09:44.240 --> 00:09:45.120
YOU WILL HAVE SO MUCH ABUNDANCE
00:09:45.120 --> 00:09:46.260
PHYSICALLY, EMOTIONALLY, IN
00:09:46.260 --> 00:09:48.040
EVERY WAY, THAT YOU DON'T EVEN
00:09:48.040 --> 00:09:49.210
NEED A MIRACLE.
00:09:49.210 --> 00:09:51.200
THAT'S HUGE RIGHT THERE, AND I
00:09:51.200 --> 00:09:54.070
DON'T THINK THAT MOST CHRISTIANS
00:09:54.070 --> 00:09:55.230
ARE LIVING THAT KIND OF A LIFE.
00:09:55.230 --> 00:09:56.210
THEY WAIT UNTIL THEY GET SICK,
00:09:56.210 --> 00:09:57.290
AND THEN THEY GO AND THEY TRY
00:09:57.290 --> 00:09:59.280
AND GET A MIRACLE FROM GOD,
00:09:59.280 --> 00:10:01.130
WHEREAS IF THEY WOULD'VE
00:10:01.130 --> 00:10:02.270
COOPERATED WITH THE NATURAL AND
00:10:02.270 --> 00:10:05.090
THE SPIRITUAL LAWS, I BELIEVE
00:10:05.090 --> 00:10:07.220
YOU CAN ACTUALLY PREVENT
00:10:07.220 --> 00:10:08.230
SICKNESS.
00:10:08.230 --> 00:10:10.030
- MATT: BEAUTIFUL.
00:10:10.030 --> 00:10:11.070
- ANDREW: IT MIGHT EVEN COME
00:10:11.070 --> 00:10:12.090
OUT YA.
00:10:12.090 --> 00:10:13.200
- MATT: WELL, THE NAME OF THE
00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:15.020
BOOK, "LIVING IN GOD'S BEST."
00:10:15.020 --> 00:10:16.020
IT'S AVAILABLE BY GOING TO THE
00:10:16.020 --> 00:10:17.020
800 NUMBER THAT WE SEE ON THE
00:10:17.020 --> 00:10:18.200
SCREEN NOW.
00:10:18.250 --> 00:10:21.250
THIS IS A BRAND-NEW BOOK.
00:10:21.250 --> 00:10:22.190
IT'S BEEN OUT JUST ABOUT A WEEK
00:10:22.190 --> 00:10:23.150
AND BRAND-NEW FROM ANDREW
00:10:27.020 --> 00:10:28.130
WOMMACK.
00:10:28.130 --> 00:10:28.290
WE HAVE IT AVAILABLE RIGHT NOW
00:10:28.290 --> 00:10:29.210
BY CALLING THE NUMBER.
00:10:29.210 --> 00:10:31.270
FOR ANY GIFT TO TBN, JUST GET
00:10:31.270 --> 00:10:33.170
THE BOOK, AND WE'RE GONNA BE
00:10:33.170 --> 00:10:36.030
TALKING ABOUT IT ALL NIGHT.
00:10:36.030 --> 00:10:37.090
- LAURIE: YEAH, YOU'RE TALKING
00:10:37.090 --> 00:10:38.010
ABOUT THE BLESSING OF GOD, WHICH
00:10:38.010 --> 00:10:39.140
IS THE SPOKEN FAVOR OF GOD,
00:10:39.140 --> 00:10:40.090
RIGHT?
00:10:41.070 --> 00:10:44.070
EXPLAIN-- GIVE US A GOOD
00:10:44.070 --> 00:10:45.090
DEFINITION OF THE BLESSING OF
00:10:45.090 --> 00:10:46.000
GOD.
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:47.110
- ANDREW: THAT IS VERY
00:10:47.110 --> 00:10:47.290
IMPORTANT BECAUSE, WHEN YOU
00:10:47.290 --> 00:10:49.020
START TALKIN' ABOUT BLESSINGS,
00:10:49.020 --> 00:10:49.240
PEOPLE WILL SAY, "THIS CAR IS A
00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:50.160
BLESSING," "THIS HOUSE IS A
00:10:50.160 --> 00:10:51.060
BLESSING."
00:10:51.060 --> 00:10:52.150
IT'S REALLY NOT.
00:10:52.150 --> 00:10:53.250
IT'S THE RESULTS OF THE BLESSING
00:10:53.250 --> 00:10:55.060
OF GOD, BUT, SEE, IF YOU THINK
00:10:57.050 --> 00:11:00.070
THAT THINGS, YOUR CAR, YOUR
00:11:00.070 --> 00:11:00.270
HOUSE, YOUR CLOTHES, ARE
00:11:00.270 --> 00:11:01.210
BLESSINGS, THEN WHAT HAPPENS IF
00:11:01.210 --> 00:11:02.130
SOMETHING AFFECTS THOSE THINGS?
00:11:02.130 --> 00:11:04.290
YOU'LL FEEL LIKE THE BLESSING
00:11:04.290 --> 00:11:06.090
HAS SOMEHOW OR ANOTHER BEEN
00:11:06.090 --> 00:11:06.290
STOPPED.
00:11:06.290 --> 00:11:08.210
BUT ONCE YOU UNDERSTAND THAT THE
00:11:08.210 --> 00:11:09.140
BLESSING IS JUST THE FAVOR OF
00:11:09.140 --> 00:11:11.050
GOD THAT'S BEEN SPOKEN OVER YOU,
00:11:11.050 --> 00:11:12.210
THEN YOU COULD BE LIKE JOSEPH.
00:11:12.210 --> 00:11:14.190
YOU COULD BE STANDING ON AN
00:11:14.190 --> 00:11:15.270
AUCTION BLOCK, STRIPPED NAKED,
00:11:15.270 --> 00:11:17.010
AND, YET YOU'D BE A VERY
00:11:17.010 --> 00:11:19.180
PROSPEROUS MAN BECAUSE YOU ARE
00:11:19.180 --> 00:11:21.140
BLESSED OF GOD.
00:11:21.140 --> 00:11:23.010
AND THIS IS SOMETHIN' THAT JAMIE
00:11:23.010 --> 00:11:24.060
AND I CAME INTO BECAUSE, WHEN WE
00:11:24.060 --> 00:11:26.160
FIRST STARTED UNDERSTANDING
00:11:26.160 --> 00:11:27.060
THESE THINGS, WE DIDN'T HAVE
00:11:27.060 --> 00:11:28.000
ANYTHING.
00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:30.120
WE WERE IN BAD SHAPE
00:11:30.120 --> 00:11:32.040
FINANCIALLY, AND, YET WE STARTED
00:11:32.040 --> 00:11:33.250
SPEAKING AND BELIEVING THAT WE
00:11:33.250 --> 00:11:34.230
WERE BLESSED.
00:11:34.230 --> 00:11:36.160
AND WHEN WE DID, YOU KNOW, IT
00:11:36.160 --> 00:11:38.010
JUST SET US FREE BECAUSE IT WAS
00:11:38.010 --> 00:11:40.190
NOT BASED ON WHAT WE SAW.
00:11:40.190 --> 00:11:43.090
I WASN'T SEEING THE BLESSING BUT
00:11:43.090 --> 00:11:44.160
I KNEW THAT GOD'S FAVOR HAD BEEN
00:11:44.160 --> 00:11:46.220
SPOKEN OVER ME.
00:11:46.220 --> 00:11:48.030
SO YOU HAVE TO MAKE A SEPARATION
00:11:48.030 --> 00:11:50.190
BETWEEN "THIS THING" BEIN' A
00:11:50.190 --> 00:11:51.250
BLESSING.
00:11:51.250 --> 00:11:52.120
THAT IS A RESULT OF A BLESSING,
00:11:52.120 --> 00:11:54.080
BUT THE BLESSING OF GOD IS
00:11:54.080 --> 00:11:55.120
ACTUALLY HIS FAVOR.
00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:56.160
AND YOU CAN SEE THIS IN A LOT OF
00:11:56.160 --> 00:11:58.240
PLACES, BUT GENESIS 27 IS WHERE
00:11:58.240 --> 00:11:59.270
JACOB AND ESAU FOUGHT OVER
00:11:59.270 --> 00:12:02.080
GETTING ISAAC'S BLESSING.
00:12:02.080 --> 00:12:04.070
YOU KNOW, SEE, THIS IS JUST
00:12:04.070 --> 00:12:06.040
TOTALLY DIFFERENT THAN OUR
00:12:06.040 --> 00:12:08.170
WESTERN MIND-SET.
00:12:08.170 --> 00:12:09.220
MOST OF US, WHEN WE LEFT HOME,
00:12:09.220 --> 00:12:12.020
NONE OF US ASKED OUR PARENTS TO
00:12:12.020 --> 00:12:13.100
BLESS US.
00:12:13.100 --> 00:12:15.090
I MEAN, YOU WOULDN'T HAVE FOUGHT
00:12:15.090 --> 00:12:17.020
WITH YOUR SIBLINGS OVER YOUR
00:12:17.020 --> 00:12:17.220
PARENTS' BLESSINGS, BUT THAT'S
00:12:17.220 --> 00:12:19.120
BECAUSE WE DON'T PUT THE
00:12:19.120 --> 00:12:20.000
IMPORTANCE ON A BLESSING, BUT
00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:21.280
THEY WERE WILLING TO PUT THEIR
00:12:22.100 --> 00:12:25.100
LIFE ON THE LINE TO BE ABLE TO
00:12:25.100 --> 00:12:27.130
GET ISAAC'S BLESSING OVER THEM.
00:12:27.130 --> 00:12:28.160
AND ONCE IT WAS GIVEN, ISAAC
00:12:28.160 --> 00:12:30.050
FOUND OUT THAT JACOB HAD FOOLED
00:12:30.050 --> 00:12:32.050
HIM, HE DIDN'T JUST SAY, "WELL,
00:12:32.210 --> 00:12:35.210
I TAKE THAT BLESSING BACK."
00:12:35.210 --> 00:12:36.250
THIS IS ANOTHER GREAT THING,
00:12:36.250 --> 00:12:37.150
AND THIS IS ONE OF THE THINGS
00:12:37.150 --> 00:12:38.060
THAT REALLY BLESSES ME IS
00:12:38.060 --> 00:12:38.250
THE STORY OF BALAAM,
00:12:39.030 --> 00:12:42.030
THAT HE WAS HIRED BY BALAK
00:12:42.030 --> 00:12:43.210
TO GO CURSE THE CHILDREN OF
00:12:43.210 --> 00:12:44.280
ISRAEL SO THAT THE CHILDREN OF
00:12:44.280 --> 00:12:46.120
ISRAEL COULD BE DEFEATED IN
00:12:46.120 --> 00:12:48.160
SEE, AGAIN, THAT RIGHT THERE
00:12:51.230 --> 00:12:52.140
SHOWS THAT THEY BELIEVED THE
00:12:52.140 --> 00:12:53.040
POWER OF WORDS.
00:12:53.040 --> 00:12:53.180
DEUTERONOMY 18:21, "DEATH AND
00:12:53.180 --> 00:12:55.120
LIFE ARE IN THE POWER OF THE
00:12:55.120 --> 00:12:57.060
TONGUE."
00:12:57.060 --> 00:13:00.070
MOST OF US, MOST PEOPLE
00:13:00.070 --> 00:13:00.250
IN THE WESTERN SOCIETY DON'T
00:13:00.250 --> 00:13:01.160
BUT IT IS TRUE THAT YOUR WORDS
00:13:04.090 --> 00:13:05.020
ARE POWERFUL.
00:13:05.020 --> 00:13:05.180
SO, ANYWAY, BALAK HIRED BALAAM
00:13:05.180 --> 00:13:06.230
TO GO CURSE THE ISRAELITES, AND
00:13:06.230 --> 00:13:07.240
HE TRIED THREE DIFFERENT TIMES
00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:09.180
TO DO IT, AND FINALLY IN
00:13:09.180 --> 00:13:11.030
NUMBERS CHAPTER 23, VERSE 19, HE
00:13:11.080 --> 00:13:14.080
CAME BACK, AND HE SAID, "LOOK,
00:13:14.080 --> 00:13:15.020
GOD HAS BLESSED THESE PEOPLE,
00:13:15.020 --> 00:13:17.010
AND I CANNOT REVERSE IT."
00:13:17.010 --> 00:13:19.280
- MATT: WOW.
00:13:19.280 --> 00:13:20.180
- ANDREW: SO HERE IS THE
00:13:20.180 --> 00:13:22.090
AND HE COULD NOT OVERTURN THE
00:13:25.130 --> 00:13:26.040
BLESSING OF GOD.
00:13:26.040 --> 00:13:28.180
SO THIS IS ANOTHER CONTRAST
00:13:28.180 --> 00:13:29.080
BETWEEN A BLESSING AND A
00:13:29.080 --> 00:13:29.260
MIRACLE.
00:13:29.260 --> 00:13:30.170
A MIRACLE IS ALWAYS TEMPORARY,
00:13:30.170 --> 00:13:32.070
ALWAYS, BECAUSE IT'S A
00:13:32.070 --> 00:13:32.250
SUPERSEDING OF LAWS THAT GOD
00:13:32.250 --> 00:13:35.010
CREATED, AND GOD DOESN'T JUST DO
00:13:35.010 --> 00:13:37.100
THAT, YOU KNOW, ON A WHIM.
00:13:37.100 --> 00:13:40.010
IT HAS TO BE A CRISIS SITUATION,
00:13:40.010 --> 00:13:41.170
BUT IT'S ONLY GONNA BE FOR A
00:13:41.170 --> 00:13:43.080
BRIEF PERIOD OF TIME.
00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:44.110
BUT THE BLESSING OF GOD, ONCE
00:13:44.110 --> 00:13:46.080
YOU TAP INTO THE BLESSING OF
00:13:46.080 --> 00:13:47.240
GOD, IT'LL NEVER STOP.
00:13:47.240 --> 00:13:49.250
IT CANNOT BE STOPPED.
00:13:49.250 --> 00:13:51.130
SO THAT WAS AWESOME!
00:13:51.130 --> 00:13:52.160
SO BALAAM TRIED THREE DIFFERENT
00:13:52.160 --> 00:13:54.010
TIMES TO CURSE THE ISRAELITES,
00:13:54.010 --> 00:13:55.270
AND WHEN HE COULDN'T DO IT, IT
00:13:55.270 --> 00:13:57.150
SAYS IN-- LET ME TURN OVER AND
00:13:57.150 --> 00:13:59.040
READ A LITTLE BIT OF THIS.
00:13:59.040 --> 00:14:01.060
BUT IT SAYS IN GENESIS CHAPTER
00:14:01.060 --> 00:14:02.030
30, THE LAST VERSE, IT SAYS THAT
00:14:02.030 --> 00:14:03.230
BALAK RETURNED-- OR EXCUSE ME,
00:14:03.230 --> 00:14:06.070
THAT WAS IN THE WRONG CHAPTER.
00:14:06.160 --> 00:14:09.160
IT'S OVER HERE IN CHAPTER 24,
00:14:09.160 --> 00:14:11.200
NUMBERS 24:25, "BALAAM ROSE UP
00:14:11.270 --> 00:14:14.270
AND WENT AND RETURNED TO HIS
00:14:14.270 --> 00:14:16.170
PLACE, AND BALAK ALSO WENT HIS
00:14:16.170 --> 00:14:17.180
WAY."
00:14:17.180 --> 00:14:19.130
SO THAT LOOKS LIKE THE END
00:14:19.130 --> 00:14:21.060
OF THE STORY, BUT THEN IN THE
00:14:21.060 --> 00:14:21.270
VERY NEXT VERSE, IT TALKS ABOUT
00:14:21.270 --> 00:14:22.270
HOW THAT THE ISRAELITES WERE
00:14:22.270 --> 00:14:24.020
ENTICED BY THESE MIDIANITE
00:14:24.020 --> 00:14:25.120
WOMEN, TO COME OUT AND HAVE
00:14:25.120 --> 00:14:26.240
SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH THEM
00:14:26.240 --> 00:14:29.070
AND START WORSHIPPING BAAL.
00:14:30.170 --> 00:14:33.170
AND THEN OVER IN NUMBERS
00:14:33.170 --> 00:14:34.220
CHAPTER 31, MOSES GOT MAD AT
00:14:34.220 --> 00:14:36.100
THEM BECAUSE HE GAVE THEM A
00:14:36.100 --> 00:14:37.150
COMMAND TO GO KILL ALL OF THE
00:14:37.150 --> 00:14:38.230
MIDIANITES, MEN, WOMEN,
00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:42.080
CHILDREN, ANIMALS, EVERYTHING,
00:14:42.080 --> 00:14:44.100
AND THEY BROUGHT BACK THE WOMEN
00:14:44.100 --> 00:14:46.060
AND THE BEST OF THE ANIMALS.
00:14:46.060 --> 00:14:48.090
THEY SAVED THEM ALIVE.
00:14:48.090 --> 00:14:49.200
THEY DISOBEYED WHAT HE SAID, AND
00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:51.090
IT SAYS HERE THAT HE TOLD THEM,
00:14:51.090 --> 00:14:53.120
HE SAYS, "BEHOLD, THESE CAUSED
00:14:53.120 --> 00:14:55.230
THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL, THROUGH
00:14:55.230 --> 00:14:56.270
THE COUNSEL OF BALAAM, TO COMMIT
00:14:56.270 --> 00:14:58.080
TRESPASS AGAINST THE LORD IN THE
00:14:58.080 --> 00:15:00.150
MATTER OF PEOR, AND THERE WAS A
00:15:00.150 --> 00:15:01.220
PLAGUE AMONG THE CONGREGATION OF
00:15:01.220 --> 00:15:02.290
THE LORD."
00:15:02.290 --> 00:15:05.080
AND SO THIS REVEALS
00:15:05.080 --> 00:15:06.090
THAT WHAT REALLY HAPPENED,
00:15:06.090 --> 00:15:07.180
BALAAM TRIED TO CURSE THE
00:15:07.180 --> 00:15:08.070
ISRAELITES.
00:15:08.070 --> 00:15:09.060
GOD WOULDN'T LET HIM DO IT, BUT
00:15:09.060 --> 00:15:10.230
WHAT HE FINALLY DID, HE TOLD
00:15:10.230 --> 00:15:12.210
BALAK, HE SAYS, "IF YOU'RE GONNA
00:15:12.210 --> 00:15:13.190
OVERCOME THIS BLESSING THAT GOD
00:15:13.190 --> 00:15:16.080
HAS PLACED ON HIS PEOPLE, THE
00:15:16.080 --> 00:15:18.270
ONLY WAY IT CAN BE OVERCOME IS
00:15:18.270 --> 00:15:21.050
THEY HAVE TO EXEMPT THEMSELF
00:15:21.050 --> 00:15:23.100
FROM IT," OR LIKE THAT VERSE
00:15:23.100 --> 00:15:25.210
THAT I WAS SAYING EARLIER,
00:15:25.210 --> 00:15:27.010
"THEY HAVE TO LIMIT GOD.
00:15:27.010 --> 00:15:27.200
YOU CAN'T DO IT."
00:15:27.200 --> 00:15:28.160
- MATT: WOW.
00:15:28.160 --> 00:15:29.180
- ANDREW: GOD WILL NEVER TAKE
00:15:29.180 --> 00:15:30.090
THE BLESSING BACK.
00:15:30.090 --> 00:15:31.200
SATAN CAN'T STOP IT.
00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:33.120
THE ONLY WAY THAT THE BLESSING
00:15:33.120 --> 00:15:34.150
OF GOD CAN BE STOPPED IN OUR
00:15:34.150 --> 00:15:35.200
LIVES IS THROUGH OUR UNBELIEF,
00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:36.150
AND THAT'S HUGE.
00:15:36.260 --> 00:15:39.260
- MATT: WOW.
00:15:39.260 --> 00:15:41.060
- ANDREW: AND ONCE I SAW THIS,
00:15:41.060 --> 00:15:42.200
MAN, IT JUST REALLY GAVE ME A
00:15:42.200 --> 00:15:44.140
DESIRE TO START SPEAKING FORTH
00:15:44.140 --> 00:15:47.050
ALL OF THESE BLESSINGS.
00:15:47.050 --> 00:15:49.000
AND, AGAIN, THE BLESSING OF GOD
00:15:49.000 --> 00:15:50.250
IS NOTHING BUT A SPOKEN FAVOR OF
00:15:50.250 --> 00:15:51.230
GOD.
00:15:51.280 --> 00:15:54.280
SO ALL OF THESE WORDS IN THIS
00:15:54.280 --> 00:15:55.190
BIBLE, THESE ARE THE BLESSINGS
00:15:55.190 --> 00:15:56.130
OF GOD, AND YOU CAN TAKE THESE
00:15:56.130 --> 00:15:57.120
THINGS, AND YOU CAN BEGIN TO
00:15:57.120 --> 00:15:59.030
SPEAK OVER YOURSELF AND BLESS
00:15:59.030 --> 00:16:01.040
YOURSELF AND START SPEAKING
00:16:01.040 --> 00:16:03.180
THESE THINGS FORTH.
00:16:03.180 --> 00:16:06.080
THEY ARE VOICE-ACTIVATED!
00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:07.200
AND WHEN WE DO THIS, THE
00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:08.080
BLESSING OF GOD BEGINS TO
00:16:08.080 --> 00:16:09.070
MANIFEST.
00:16:09.070 --> 00:16:10.080
- MATT: BEAUTIFUL.
00:16:10.080 --> 00:16:10.290
WOW.
00:16:10.290 --> 00:16:12.100
WE ARE SITTING ALL EVENING WITH
00:16:12.100 --> 00:16:13.020
ANDREW WOMMACK.
00:16:13.020 --> 00:16:15.130
IT IS NOW AVAILABLE BY DIALING
00:16:18.190 --> 00:16:20.000
THAT 800 NUMBER.
00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:22.050
IT'S JUST A LOT EASIER TO DO IT.
00:16:22.050 --> 00:16:23.080
IT GETS SHIPPED RIGHT TO YOU FOR
00:16:23.080 --> 00:16:24.280
ANY GIFT OF ANY AMOUNT TO TBN.
00:16:24.280 --> 00:16:27.250
WE BELIEVE IN ANDREW WOMMACK'S
00:16:27.250 --> 00:16:28.260
MINISTRY.
00:16:28.260 --> 00:16:30.190
WE BELIEVE IN THIS CONCEPT.
00:16:30.190 --> 00:16:33.010
"AS A MAN THINKS, SO IS HE," YOU
00:16:33.010 --> 00:16:34.210
KNOW, I MEAN, IS ULTIMATELY; BUT
00:16:34.210 --> 00:16:36.090
ULTIMATELY, IT'S NOT THE TRUTH
00:16:36.090 --> 00:16:37.270
THAT MAKES YOU FREE.
00:16:37.270 --> 00:16:40.170
IT'S THE TRUTH YOU KNOW THAT
00:16:40.170 --> 00:16:41.100
MAKES YOU FREE.
00:16:41.100 --> 00:16:42.270
SO YOU'VE LAID A NICE LITTLE
00:16:42.270 --> 00:16:45.270
FOUNDATION HERE.
00:16:45.270 --> 00:16:47.180
WE WANNA KEEP GOING.
00:16:47.180 --> 00:16:49.280
WE'RE NOT TAKIN' A BREAK OR
00:16:49.280 --> 00:16:50.180
NOTHIN', BUT I JUST WANNA DO ONE
00:16:50.180 --> 00:16:51.180
QUICK THING.
00:16:51.180 --> 00:16:54.060
IF WE'RE INTRODUCING
00:16:54.060 --> 00:16:54.230
ANDREW WOMMACK TO YOU
00:16:54.230 --> 00:16:56.210
ON THIS BROADCAST IN PRIME TIME,
00:16:57.200 --> 00:17:00.220
IT'S BECAUSE YOU
00:17:00.220 --> 00:17:01.230
DON'T GET UP EARLY, OKAY?
00:17:01.230 --> 00:17:02.130
SO MAYBE WE ARE.
00:17:02.130 --> 00:17:03.200
IF YOU WANNA KNOW A LITTLE BIT
00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:05.020
MORE ABOUT ANDREW WOMMACK, WATCH
00:17:05.020 --> 00:17:05.240
- ANDREW: THE REASON I DO WHAT
00:17:09.130 --> 00:17:10.080
I DO IS TWOFOLD: FIRST OF ALL,
00:17:10.080 --> 00:17:12.000
GOD JUST TRANSFORMED MY LIFE,
00:17:12.000 --> 00:17:13.210
AND IT'S JUST LIKE THE GUY THAT
00:17:13.210 --> 00:17:14.290
HE SAYS, "DON'T GO TELL ANYBODY
00:17:18.020 --> 00:17:18.240
ABOUT WHAT'S HAPPENED TO YOUR
00:17:18.240 --> 00:17:19.150
COULDN'T KEEP IT QUIET.
00:17:21.160 --> 00:17:23.280
WHEN YOU GET GOD TOUCHIN' YOU,
00:17:23.280 --> 00:17:24.190
YOU JUST WANNA TELL SOMEBODY.
00:17:24.190 --> 00:17:25.100
YOU GOT THIS GOOD NEWS YOU WANNA
00:17:25.100 --> 00:17:26.140
BUT BEYOND THAT, I BELIEVE GOD'S
00:17:29.070 --> 00:17:29.290
GOT A SPECIFIC CALL ON MY LIFE,
00:17:29.290 --> 00:17:30.210
AND, I MEAN, GOD HAS ENCOURAGED
00:17:30.210 --> 00:17:31.150
AND ON NOVEMBER THE 4TH, 2014,
00:17:36.040 --> 00:17:37.020
HE WOKE ME UP AT 3 O'CLOCK IN
00:17:37.020 --> 00:17:39.020
THE MORNIN', AND HE SAID, "THIS
00:17:39.020 --> 00:17:41.020
IS THE REASON THAT I'VE RAISED
00:17:41.020 --> 00:17:41.240
IS TO CHANGE PEOPLE'S OPINION OF
00:17:46.110 --> 00:17:47.040
ME, AND AS THEIR OPINION OF ME
00:17:47.040 --> 00:17:48.040
CHANGES, THEN THEY, IN TURN,
00:17:48.040 --> 00:17:49.230
OUR PARTNERS ARE ESSENTIAL TO
00:17:53.180 --> 00:17:54.090
EVERYTHING WE DO.
00:17:54.090 --> 00:17:57.080
FIFTY-THREE PERCENT OF THE
00:17:57.080 --> 00:17:57.270
PEOPLE WHO WRITE US AND CONTACT
00:17:57.270 --> 00:17:59.220
US, DON'T GIVE A THING, AND WE
00:17:59.220 --> 00:18:02.010
SEND THEM THE MATERIAL.
00:18:02.010 --> 00:18:03.190
AND THE REASON THAT I GIVE MY
00:18:03.190 --> 00:18:04.230
TAPES AWAY IS BECAUSE, BACK IN
00:18:04.230 --> 00:18:06.000
THE BEGINNING OF OUR MINISTRY
00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:07.190
WHEN WE WERE IN SEAGOVILLE,
00:18:07.190 --> 00:18:08.280
TEXAS, PASTORIN' OUR FIRST
00:18:08.280 --> 00:18:10.110
LITTLE CHURCH, I JUST MADE A
00:18:10.110 --> 00:18:11.190
"GOD, IF YOU EVER SHOW ME
00:18:15.230 --> 00:18:16.120
SOMETHIN' THAT COULD CHANGE
00:18:16.120 --> 00:18:17.060
ANOTHER PERSON'S LIFE, I'LL
00:18:17.060 --> 00:18:18.190
NEVER DENY THEM ACCESS TO IT
00:18:18.190 --> 00:18:19.150
BECAUSE OF FINANCES.
00:18:19.180 --> 00:18:22.180
THE INITIAL RESPONSE THAT I GET
00:18:22.180 --> 00:18:24.140
FROM PEOPLE WHO COME IN CONTACT
00:18:24.140 --> 00:18:25.170
WITH OUR MINISTRY IS THAT THEY
00:18:25.170 --> 00:18:27.100
JUST SEE GOD IN A TOTAL
00:18:27.100 --> 00:18:29.230
DIFFERENT LIGHT THAN THEY'VE
00:18:29.230 --> 00:18:30.180
THAT CAUSES THEM TO RESPOND TO
00:18:33.170 --> 00:18:34.090
- MATT: WE ARE TALKING TODAY
00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:38.210
WITH ANDREW WOMMACK ABOUT LIVING
00:18:38.210 --> 00:18:40.040
IN GOD'S BEST.
00:18:40.040 --> 00:18:43.000
FIRST OF ALL, I THINK THAT
00:18:43.000 --> 00:18:45.090
YOU'VE GOT A REALLY GREAT KIND
00:18:45.090 --> 00:18:46.050
OF FOUNDATION LAID FOR US.
00:18:46.050 --> 00:18:48.090
WE'RE DISCUSSING MAYBE EVEN THE
00:18:48.260 --> 00:18:51.260
STARK CONTRAST BETWEEN A MIRACLE
00:18:51.260 --> 00:18:53.280
AND A BLESSING.
00:18:53.280 --> 00:18:55.260
NOW WE NEED TO KNOW HOW TO WALK
00:18:55.260 --> 00:18:57.110
IN THIS STUFF.
00:18:57.110 --> 00:18:59.240
WE NEED TO KNOW, YOU KNOW, HOW
00:18:59.240 --> 00:19:01.140
TO DO THIS.
00:19:01.140 --> 00:19:04.010
- LAURIE: HOW TO RECEIVE THE
00:19:04.010 --> 00:19:04.230
BLESSING.
00:19:04.230 --> 00:19:06.040
- MATT: I MEAN, SO, WE'RE
00:19:06.040 --> 00:19:06.290
WATCHING ALL OVER THE WORLD,
00:19:06.290 --> 00:19:08.050
OKAY.
00:19:08.050 --> 00:19:09.100
- LAURIE: WE'RE TOGETHER!
00:19:09.100 --> 00:19:10.190
- MATT: LAURIE AND I ARE
00:19:10.190 --> 00:19:11.080
WATCHING WITH YOU.
00:19:11.080 --> 00:19:12.270
WE WANT TO KNOW THIS.
00:19:12.270 --> 00:19:14.020
WE WANNA GET THIS.
00:19:14.020 --> 00:19:15.140
THE BEST WAY WOULD BE, OF
00:19:15.140 --> 00:19:17.080
COURSE, GET THE BOOK, BUT WE'RE
00:19:17.080 --> 00:19:18.200
GONNA DO, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF IT
00:19:18.200 --> 00:19:19.290
RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW.
00:19:19.290 --> 00:19:20.160
BUT GET THIS.
00:19:20.160 --> 00:19:22.010
GIVE IT TO SOMEBODY.
00:19:22.010 --> 00:19:23.020
AVAILABLE RIGHT NOW.
00:19:23.020 --> 00:19:26.010
SO LET ME JUST ASK YOU THIS.
00:19:26.010 --> 00:19:26.220
YOU HAVE, KIND OF, AN ACCENT.
00:19:26.220 --> 00:19:28.270
I'M NOT SURE IF YOU'VE EVER BEEN
00:19:28.270 --> 00:19:29.200
TOLD THAT BEFORE, HAVE YOU?
00:19:29.200 --> 00:19:31.010
[LAUGHTER]
00:19:31.010 --> 00:19:31.180
- ANDREW: TODAY!
00:19:31.180 --> 00:19:32.150
- MATT: YEAH, HAVE YOU?
00:19:32.150 --> 00:19:33.030
[LAUGHTER]
00:19:33.030 --> 00:19:33.170
YEAH, EARLIER?
00:19:33.170 --> 00:19:34.000
DID I ASK YOU THAT?
00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:35.000
- ANDREW: NO, I'M TALKIN' ABOUT
00:19:35.000 --> 00:19:36.040
AT A RESTAURANT THIS MORNIN',
00:19:36.040 --> 00:19:36.250
ASKED HERE I'M FROM.
00:19:36.250 --> 00:19:37.120
- MATT: YEAH, SO WHERE ARE YOU
00:19:37.120 --> 00:19:38.080
FROM?
00:19:38.080 --> 00:19:38.260
- ANDREW: TEXAS.
00:19:38.260 --> 00:19:40.030
- MATT: OKAY.
00:19:40.030 --> 00:19:40.190
SO I COULD'VE MAYBE GUESSED
00:19:40.190 --> 00:19:42.020
THAT, BUT TEXAS.
00:19:42.020 --> 00:19:43.200
SO CURRENTLY THOUGH, YOUR
00:19:43.260 --> 00:19:46.260
MINISTRY IS UP IN COLORADO
00:19:46.260 --> 00:19:48.190
SPRINGS OR NEAR COLORADO
00:19:48.190 --> 00:19:49.210
SPRINGS, UP IN THE HILLSIDE.
00:19:49.210 --> 00:19:50.190
WHAT TOOK YOU UP THERE TO THE
00:19:50.190 --> 00:19:52.120
HILL COUNTRY UP THERE?
00:19:52.170 --> 00:19:55.170
- ANDREW: I JUST LOVE COLORADO.
00:19:55.170 --> 00:19:56.180
- MATT: DO YA?
00:19:56.180 --> 00:19:58.060
- ANDREW: AND THE FIRST TIME I
00:19:58.060 --> 00:19:58.280
EVER WENT THERE, I SAID,
00:19:58.280 --> 00:19:59.200
"SOMEDAY I'M GONNA LIVE HERE."
00:19:59.200 --> 00:20:00.280
- MATT: WOW.
00:20:00.280 --> 00:20:01.130
- ANDREW: SO I PASTORED
00:20:01.130 --> 00:20:02.070
CHURCHES, AND IF I KNEW
00:20:02.070 --> 00:20:03.010
INVITATION WAS CLOSER TO
00:20:03.010 --> 00:20:04.120
COLORADO, THAT WAS GOD, AND I
00:20:04.120 --> 00:20:06.260
JUST MOVED THAT DIRECTION.
00:20:06.260 --> 00:20:07.250
- LAURIE: I TELL YA WHAT.
00:20:07.250 --> 00:20:08.150
I SAY THIS EVERY TIME YOU'RE ON,
00:20:08.150 --> 00:20:09.220
I THINK, BUT WE'VE GOT A SCHOOL
00:20:09.220 --> 00:20:12.220
OF MINISTRY UP THERE.
00:20:12.220 --> 00:20:15.100
EVERY PERSON-- I MEAN, YOU'VE
00:20:15.100 --> 00:20:16.010
GOT EVERY AGE, YOUNG TO OLDER.
00:20:16.010 --> 00:20:18.260
EVERYBODY THAT HAS GONE TO
00:20:21.040 --> 00:20:24.040
CHARIS--
00:20:24.040 --> 00:20:27.010
- MATT: JUST LOVES IT!
00:20:27.010 --> 00:20:28.010
- LAURIE: CHARIS.
00:20:28.010 --> 00:20:28.280
- ANDREW: CHARIS.
00:20:28.280 --> 00:20:30.000
- LAURIE: CHARIS, SORRY.
00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:30.220
ABSOLUTELY LOVES IT!
00:20:30.220 --> 00:20:32.170
- ANDREW: THAT'S AWESOME!
00:20:32.170 --> 00:20:33.270
- LAURIE: AND NOBODY GOES, "YOU
00:20:33.270 --> 00:20:34.250
KNOW, IT WAS GREAT BUT..."
00:20:34.250 --> 00:20:35.230
NEVER!
00:20:35.230 --> 00:20:36.080
IT'S LIKE, "IT IS THE GREATEST
00:20:36.080 --> 00:20:37.100
THING THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED TO
00:20:37.100 --> 00:20:38.280
ME.
00:20:38.280 --> 00:20:40.000
GOD HAS--" YOU KNOW, AND THEN
00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:40.210
THEY JUST SPOUT OUT THE THINGS
00:20:40.210 --> 00:20:42.100
THAT GOD HAS DONE IN THEIR LIVES
00:20:42.100 --> 00:20:43.030
- ANDREW: BUT, YOU KNOW, THIS
00:20:48.010 --> 00:20:48.220
IS A GOOD ILLUSTRATION OF WHAT
00:20:48.220 --> 00:20:49.130
I'VE BEEN TALKIN' ABOUT, THE
00:20:49.130 --> 00:20:50.030
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A BLESSING
00:20:50.030 --> 00:20:50.240
AND A MIRACLE, BECAUSE OVER THE
00:20:50.240 --> 00:20:51.240
LAST 4 & 1/2 YEARS, THAT
00:20:51.240 --> 00:20:53.050
PROPERTY THAT WE HAD WAS TOTALLY
00:20:53.050 --> 00:20:55.250
BARREN 4 & 1/2 YEARS AGO, AND
00:20:55.250 --> 00:20:58.090
NOW WE HAVE SPENT $65 MILLION ON
00:20:58.090 --> 00:21:00.030
BUILDINGS, IN 4 & 1/2 YEARS,
00:21:00.270 --> 00:21:03.270
ABOVE MY NORMAL EXPENSES OF
00:21:04.060 --> 00:21:07.060
BEIN' ON TELEVISION AND
00:21:07.060 --> 00:21:08.030
EVERYTHING ELSE.
00:21:08.030 --> 00:21:10.000
- MATT: WHAT CHANGED?
00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:10.170
- ANDREW: AND PEOPLE SAY,
00:21:10.170 --> 00:21:11.130
"THAT'S A MIRACLE!"
00:21:11.130 --> 00:21:12.050
IT'S NOT.
00:21:12.050 --> 00:21:13.020
IT'S A BLESSING.
00:21:13.020 --> 00:21:13.180
- MATT: OKAY.
00:21:13.180 --> 00:21:14.040
- ANDREW: IT WOULD BE A MIRACLE
00:21:14.040 --> 00:21:15.010
IF I DIDN'T SOW FOR IT, IF I
00:21:16.100 --> 00:21:19.100
DIDN'T TAKE THE WORD OF GOD AND
00:21:19.100 --> 00:21:21.230
PUT THE PRINCIPLES INTO PRACTICE
00:21:21.230 --> 00:21:24.210
AND LEARN HOW TO SPEAK MY FAITH
00:21:24.210 --> 00:21:27.190
INSTEAD OF MY FEARS AND DO THE
00:21:27.190 --> 00:21:29.120
THING, AND THEN, IF GOD JUST
00:21:29.120 --> 00:21:30.020
SOMEHOW OR ANOTHER
00:21:30.020 --> 00:21:32.050
SUPERNATURALLY GAVE ME THE
00:21:32.050 --> 00:21:32.240
MONEY, THAT WOULD BE A MIRACLE
00:21:32.240 --> 00:21:33.250
'CAUSE IT WOULD BE OUTSIDE OF
00:21:33.250 --> 00:21:34.230
SPIRITUAL AND NATURAL LAWS.
00:21:34.230 --> 00:21:37.070
BUT IT'S A BLESSING IS WHAT IT
00:21:37.070 --> 00:21:38.240
IS.
00:21:38.240 --> 00:21:39.240
IT'S I'VE LEARNED HOW TO WALK IN
00:21:39.240 --> 00:21:41.200
THE THINGS OF GOD, AND THIS IS
00:21:41.200 --> 00:21:43.060
WHY SO MANY PEOPLE, MATT, THAT
00:21:43.060 --> 00:21:46.020
ARE WATCHING, ARE PRAYING FOR A
00:21:46.020 --> 00:21:48.240
MIRACLE.
00:21:48.240 --> 00:21:49.140
THEY'RE PRAYING FOR THE RIGHT
00:21:49.140 --> 00:21:50.190
THING, BUT THEY AREN'T SOWING.
00:21:50.190 --> 00:21:53.140
THEY AREN'T DOING WHAT THE WORD
00:21:53.140 --> 00:21:55.020
OF GOD SAYS, SEE, THAT ACTIVATES
00:21:55.020 --> 00:21:56.180
THE BLESSING, AND THEY'RE JUST
00:21:57.050 --> 00:22:00.070
PRAYING-- AND IT'S GONNA TAKE A
00:22:00.070 --> 00:22:01.000
MIRACLE, AND YOU CAN'T CONTROL A
00:22:01.000 --> 00:22:01.230
MIRACLE.
00:22:01.230 --> 00:22:04.050
MIRACLES ARE DISPENSED BY GOD AT
00:22:04.050 --> 00:22:05.050
HIS DISCRETION.
00:22:05.100 --> 00:22:08.100
AND LIKE WE'VE ALREADY TALKED
00:22:08.100 --> 00:22:09.010
ABOUT, YOU HAVE TO HAVE A CRISIS
00:22:09.010 --> 00:22:09.290
BEFORE YOU GET A MIRACLE, SO IF
00:22:09.290 --> 00:22:12.110
YOU'RE GONNA WAIT UNTIL THE
00:22:15.170 --> 00:22:16.070
11TH HOUR BEFORE YOU GET YOUR
00:22:16.070 --> 00:22:17.100
MIRACLE, WHEREAS WHEN YOU START
00:22:17.100 --> 00:22:18.250
WALKIN' IN THE BLESSING OF GOD,
00:22:18.250 --> 00:22:19.240
IT'LL PREVENT--
00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:22.000
I WANNA BE IN THE BLESSING.
00:22:24.240 --> 00:22:25.170
- ANDREW: AMEN!
00:22:25.170 --> 00:22:26.100
- MATT: OKAY, I'M CONVINCED.
00:22:26.100 --> 00:22:27.200
SO MAKE SURE I KNOW HOW TO DO
00:22:27.200 --> 00:22:28.110
IT, OKAY?
00:22:28.110 --> 00:22:30.240
SO-- GO ON.
00:22:30.240 --> 00:22:31.140
- LAURIE: WELL, I WAS GONNA
00:22:31.140 --> 00:22:32.040
SAY, WHEN GOD COMMANDED THE
00:22:32.040 --> 00:22:33.010
PEOPLE TO SOW FOR 6 YEARS, AND
00:22:33.010 --> 00:22:35.190
THEN ON THE 7TH YEAR, DON'T.
00:22:36.020 --> 00:22:39.020
- MATT: LAY FALLOW, LET THE
00:22:39.020 --> 00:22:39.250
GROUND--
00:22:39.250 --> 00:22:42.160
LAURIE: THAT TOOK FAITH TO DO
00:22:42.160 --> 00:22:43.120
THAT 'CAUSE I'M SURE THAT THEY
00:22:43.120 --> 00:22:44.140
WOULD SAY,
00:22:44.140 --> 00:22:45.070
"BUT IF WE DON'T, WE MIGHT
00:22:45.070 --> 00:22:46.120
NOT HAVE ENOUGH TO EAT."
00:22:46.120 --> 00:22:47.250
SO IT'S ALWAYS TRUSTING GOD
00:22:47.250 --> 00:22:49.160
AND BELIEVING IN OBEDIENCE.
00:22:49.210 --> 00:22:52.210
- ANDREW: ABSOLUTELY.
00:22:52.210 --> 00:22:53.290
- LAURIE: SO IT'S ALWAYS
00:22:53.290 --> 00:22:54.290
OBEDIENCE, TRUSTING, AND
00:22:54.290 --> 00:22:55.260
BELIEVING GOD FOR IT.
00:22:55.260 --> 00:22:58.120
- ANDREW: AND THAT IS KIND OF A
00:22:58.120 --> 00:22:59.040
COMBINATION OF A MIRACLE AND A
00:22:59.040 --> 00:23:00.130
BLESSING BECAUSE IT'S NOT NORMAL
00:23:00.130 --> 00:23:02.160
FOR YOUR CROPS TO BRING FORTH
00:23:02.160 --> 00:23:04.030
THREE TIMES THE NORMAL HARVEST
00:23:04.030 --> 00:23:05.270
EVERY 6 YEARS LIKE CLOCKWORK.
00:23:05.270 --> 00:23:08.110
SO THAT WAS-- IT WAS THE
00:23:08.110 --> 00:23:09.280
BLESSING OF GOD THAT CALLS THE
00:23:09.280 --> 00:23:11.240
MIRACLE TO HAPPEN, SO YOU CAN
00:23:11.280 --> 00:23:14.280
HAVE A MERGING OF THESE THINGS
00:23:14.280 --> 00:23:16.090
AND A COMBINATION OF 'EM.
00:23:16.090 --> 00:23:18.210
- MATT: OKAY, LET'S MOVE ON
00:23:18.210 --> 00:23:19.200
NOW.
00:23:19.200 --> 00:23:20.020
LET'S GET PAST THE
00:23:20.020 --> 00:23:22.080
CRISIS-TO-CRISIS MIRACLE THING,
00:23:22.080 --> 00:23:24.240
AND LET'S GO INTO THE COMMANDED
00:23:24.240 --> 00:23:26.240
BLESSING.
00:23:26.240 --> 00:23:28.260
YOU WERE TALKING EARLIER ABOUT
00:23:28.260 --> 00:23:30.090
HOW THOSE DO NOT HAVE TO SUSPEND
00:23:31.140 --> 00:23:34.140
GOD'S NATURAL OR SUPERNATURAL
00:23:34.140 --> 00:23:35.100
ORDER.
00:23:35.100 --> 00:23:38.000
THEY ARE LAWS AND PRINCIPLES.
00:23:38.000 --> 00:23:40.050
LET'S MAKE SURE OUR AUDIENCE
00:23:40.050 --> 00:23:42.110
KNOWS HOW WE KNOW HOW TO DO
00:23:42.110 --> 00:23:44.090
THAT.
00:23:44.090 --> 00:23:44.290
- ANDREW: WELL, FOR INSTANCE,
00:23:44.290 --> 00:23:46.190
YOU KNOW, I'VE READ THINGS FROM
00:23:46.190 --> 00:23:47.190
DOCTORS THAT SAY THAT STRESS
00:23:47.190 --> 00:23:49.060
SUPPRESSES YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM,
00:23:49.060 --> 00:23:52.000
MAKES YOU SUSCEPTIBLE TO THINGS,
00:23:52.000 --> 00:23:53.110
AND THINGS LIKE THIS.
00:23:53.110 --> 00:23:54.110
SO IF YOU AREN'T WALKING IN WHAT
00:23:54.110 --> 00:23:56.270
THE WORD OF GOD SAYS, WHERE YOU
00:23:56.270 --> 00:23:58.100
KEEP YOUR MIND STAYED UPON HIM
00:23:58.100 --> 00:24:00.020
AND HE KEEPS YOU IN PERFECT
00:24:00.170 --> 00:24:03.170
PEACE, BUT INSTEAD, YOU'RE
00:24:03.170 --> 00:24:04.100
WORRIED, YOU'RE FEARFUL, YOU'RE
00:24:04.100 --> 00:24:05.100
ANXIOUS ABOUT THINGS, THAT
00:24:05.100 --> 00:24:07.160
ACTUALLY PUTS YOUR BODY INTO A
00:24:07.160 --> 00:24:09.120
SITUATION WHERE YOU MIGHT NEED A
00:24:09.120 --> 00:24:10.050
MIRACLE.
00:24:10.050 --> 00:24:11.160
YOU MIGHT HAVE TO HAVE GOD DO
00:24:11.160 --> 00:24:13.230
SOMETHING, WHEREAS IF YOU
00:24:13.230 --> 00:24:15.040
WOULD'VE JUST OPERATED IN THE
00:24:15.040 --> 00:24:16.020
WORD, "CAST YOUR CARE OVER ON
00:24:16.020 --> 00:24:16.260
THE LORD," AND DONE THESE KIND
00:24:16.260 --> 00:24:17.280
OF THINGS, YOU DON'T EVEN NEED
00:24:17.280 --> 00:24:19.000
THAT MIRACLE.
00:24:19.000 --> 00:24:20.260
AND SO I THINK THAT A LOT OF
00:24:20.260 --> 00:24:22.150
PEOPLE ARE PUTTING THEMSELF INTO
00:24:22.150 --> 00:24:24.190
SITUATIONS WHERE THEY HAVE TO
00:24:24.190 --> 00:24:25.280
HAVE MIRACLES, BUT IF THEY
00:24:25.280 --> 00:24:28.010
WOULD'VE JUST OBEYED THE NATURAL
00:24:28.010 --> 00:24:30.080
LAWS AND THE SPIRITUAL LAWS,
00:24:30.080 --> 00:24:31.090
THEY WOULDN'T HAVE EVER NEEDED
00:24:31.090 --> 00:24:32.180
IT.
00:24:32.180 --> 00:24:33.110
- LAURIE: THAT'S SO GOOD.
00:24:33.110 --> 00:24:34.220
- MATT: OKAY, IT IS, BUT I
00:24:34.220 --> 00:24:35.120
WANNA JUST SAY IT LIKE THIS,
00:24:35.120 --> 00:24:36.230
REAL BLUNTLY.
00:24:37.260 --> 00:24:40.260
YOU KNOW, THERE MAY BE SOMEBODY
00:24:40.260 --> 00:24:41.180
WATCHING, GOING--
00:24:41.180 --> 00:24:42.030
- ANDREW: YOU WANT TO GET THE
00:24:42.030 --> 00:24:42.250
"HOW TO."
00:24:42.250 --> 00:24:43.200
[LAUGHTER]
00:24:43.200 --> 00:24:44.060
- MATT: -- YEAH, BUT
00:24:44.060 --> 00:24:44.230
I'M GONNA SAY-- I'LL SAY IT THIS
00:24:44.230 --> 00:24:45.150
WAY: THE AUDIENCE, SOMEBODY,
00:24:45.150 --> 00:24:46.090
GOIN', "YEAH, BUT YOU'RE A GUY
00:24:46.090 --> 00:24:47.060
THAT ISN'T SICK, ISN'T, YOU
00:24:49.100 --> 00:24:52.100
KNOW, LIVING IN A CRUDDY DIVORCE
00:24:52.100 --> 00:24:53.180
AND SITUATION," AND, YOU KNOW,
00:24:53.180 --> 00:24:56.100
YOU'VE BEEN MARRIED HOW MANY
00:24:56.100 --> 00:24:57.220
YEARS NOW?
00:24:57.220 --> 00:24:59.040
- ANDREW: FORTY-FOUR YEARS.
00:24:59.040 --> 00:25:01.140
- MATT: AND SHE WAS YOUR FIRST
00:25:01.140 --> 00:25:02.060
WIFE?
00:25:02.060 --> 00:25:02.260
YOU ONLY HAD ONE?
00:25:02.260 --> 00:25:03.190
- ANDREW: FIRST AND BEST.
00:25:03.190 --> 00:25:04.240
- MATT: FIRST AND BEST, GOT IT.
00:25:04.240 --> 00:25:06.250
SO, YOU KNOW, "YOU DIDN'T HAVE
00:25:06.250 --> 00:25:07.170
THE SAME PROBLEMS I DO.
00:25:07.170 --> 00:25:08.130
YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.
00:25:08.130 --> 00:25:10.010
YOU JUST SPENT $65 MILLION ON
00:25:10.010 --> 00:25:11.170
YOUR PROPERTY.
00:25:11.170 --> 00:25:12.050
I DON'T HAVE $65.
00:25:12.100 --> 00:25:15.100
SO THAT ALL WORKS FOR YOU; DON'T
00:25:15.100 --> 00:25:16.030
WORK FOR ME."
00:25:16.030 --> 00:25:16.160
HOW DO YOU ANSWER THAT?
00:25:16.160 --> 00:25:18.000
- ANDREW: WELL, THEY JUST DON'T
00:25:18.000 --> 00:25:18.230
KNOW ME.
00:25:18.230 --> 00:25:20.150
MY WIFE AND I HAVE BEEN THROUGH
00:25:20.150 --> 00:25:21.070
THINGS THAT I'M NOT GONNA SIT
00:25:21.070 --> 00:25:22.010
HERE AND SHARE ALL THE DETAILS,
00:25:22.010 --> 00:25:23.080
BUT PAUL HARVEY, ON HIS
00:25:23.080 --> 00:25:24.260
WORLDWIDE BROADCAST, HE CAME UP
00:25:24.260 --> 00:25:27.110
AND HE SAYS, "THIS IS THE WORST
00:25:27.110 --> 00:25:28.260
THING I HAVE EVER REPORTED IN MY
00:25:29.150 --> 00:25:32.150
ENTIRE CAREER," AND THEN HE TOLD
00:25:32.150 --> 00:25:34.020
ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO JAMIE AND
00:25:34.020 --> 00:25:35.270
ME, AND IT WENT WORLDWIDE.
00:25:36.090 --> 00:25:39.090
AND WE HAVE HAD THINGS HAPPEN
00:25:39.090 --> 00:25:40.260
THAT, I GUARANTEE YOU, WOULD'VE
00:25:40.260 --> 00:25:42.030
DESTROYED OUR MARRIAGE, WOULD'VE
00:25:42.030 --> 00:25:43.190
DESTROYED OUR MINISTRY.
00:25:43.190 --> 00:25:46.150
I'VE BEEN THROUGH THINGS.
00:25:46.150 --> 00:25:47.230
PEOPLE CAN SIT HERE AND SEE
00:25:47.230 --> 00:25:49.110
WHERE I AM NOW AND SAY, "WELL,
00:25:49.110 --> 00:25:50.030
IT'S EASY FOR YOU."
00:25:50.030 --> 00:25:52.000
IT'S NOT EASY.
00:25:52.000 --> 00:25:53.200
I SAW MY OWN SON RAISED FROM THE
00:25:53.200 --> 00:25:54.120
DEAD.
00:25:54.120 --> 00:25:55.090
I'VE SEEN MY WIFE RAISED FROM
00:25:55.090 --> 00:25:56.000
THE DEAD.
00:25:56.000 --> 00:25:57.070
I'VE HAD TO STAND AGAINST THINGS
00:25:57.070 --> 00:25:58.000
AND SEEN 'EM WORK.
00:25:58.190 --> 00:26:01.210
AND SO, YOU KNOW, IT'S
00:26:01.210 --> 00:26:02.170
DEBATABLE.
00:26:02.170 --> 00:26:03.150
ALL OF US HAVE OUR OWN DIFFERENT
00:26:03.150 --> 00:26:04.080
THINGS, BUT I'VE SEEN THIS WORK
00:26:04.080 --> 00:26:05.210
IN MY LIFE, AND I HAVE STOOD,
00:26:06.010 --> 00:26:09.010
AND I HAVE SHOUTED THE BLESSING
00:26:09.010 --> 00:26:11.240
OF GOD WHEN I FELT LIKE CRYIN'.
00:26:11.240 --> 00:26:12.160
- LAURIE: YEAH.
00:26:12.160 --> 00:26:14.180
- ANDREW: BUT I'VE JUST
00:26:14.180 --> 00:26:15.060
LEARNED, AGAIN, THE BLESSING OF
00:26:15.060 --> 00:26:15.280
GOD IS GOD'S FAVOR SPOKEN, AND
00:26:15.280 --> 00:26:18.010
YOU HAVE TO SPEAK IT.
00:26:18.010 --> 00:26:19.250
IT'S VOICE-ACTIVATED.
00:26:19.250 --> 00:26:20.200
- MATT: OKAY, HELP US.
00:26:20.200 --> 00:26:22.290
- ANDREW: AND SO, LIKE, FOR
00:26:22.290 --> 00:26:23.280
INSTANCE, WHEN THIS THING I WAS
00:26:23.280 --> 00:26:25.190
TALKIN' ABOUT HAPPENED THAT
00:26:25.190 --> 00:26:26.100
PAUL HARVEY WENT ON HIS
00:26:26.100 --> 00:26:27.130
BROADCAST AND ANNOUNCED IT, I
00:26:27.130 --> 00:26:28.190
HAD MY STAFF COME TO ME, AND
00:26:28.190 --> 00:26:30.090
THEY SAID, "WELL, YOU CAN'T
00:26:30.090 --> 00:26:31.120
TEACH IN SCHOOL TODAY."
00:26:31.120 --> 00:26:33.050
THEY SAID, "WE'VE ALREADY
00:26:33.050 --> 00:26:34.080
TAKEN AWAY ALL OF YOUR THINGS,
00:26:34.080 --> 00:26:34.290
AND WE'RE GONNA TAKE OVER."
00:26:34.290 --> 00:26:35.290
AND I SAID, "WHY?"
00:26:35.290 --> 00:26:36.230
I SAID, "I'M GONNA TEACH JUST
00:26:36.230 --> 00:26:39.010
LIKE NORMAL."
00:26:39.010 --> 00:26:39.230
THEY SAID, "YOU CAN'T AFTER
00:26:39.230 --> 00:26:40.170
WHAT'S HAPPENED TO YOU."
00:26:40.170 --> 00:26:41.140
AND I SAID, "LOOK, JESUS
00:26:41.140 --> 00:26:42.030
IS THE SAME.
00:26:42.030 --> 00:26:43.090
HE HADN'T CHANGED.
00:26:43.090 --> 00:26:44.230
I'M NOT GONNA TELL 'EM ABOUT ME
00:26:44.230 --> 00:26:46.140
AND WHAT I'VE GONE THROUGH."
00:26:46.140 --> 00:26:47.270
I SAID, "I'M GONNA STAND UP
00:26:47.270 --> 00:26:48.240
THERE AND PROCLAIM WHAT JESUS
00:26:48.240 --> 00:26:49.220
HAS DONE."
00:26:49.220 --> 00:26:51.260
AND I HAD TO GO CONTRARY
00:26:51.260 --> 00:26:52.150
TO MY EMOTIONS, CONTRARY TO MY
00:26:52.150 --> 00:26:54.230
FEELINGS, AND I JUST GET UP AND
00:26:54.230 --> 00:26:55.170
SPEAK THE BLESSING OF GOD.
00:26:55.170 --> 00:26:58.070
SO WHAT YOU WERE SAYING, MATT,
00:26:58.070 --> 00:26:59.230
SOME PEOPLE THINKIN', "WELL, YOU
00:26:59.230 --> 00:27:01.050
HAVEN'T HAD MY PROBLEM," I'LL
00:27:01.050 --> 00:27:02.060
TELL YA, I'VE BEEN THROUGH MY
00:27:02.060 --> 00:27:03.140
SHARE OF STUFF.
00:27:03.140 --> 00:27:05.240
I TELL PEOPLE THAT RAISIN' KIDS
00:27:05.240 --> 00:27:06.250
IS HARDER THAN RAISIN' THE DEAD,
00:27:06.250 --> 00:27:08.040
'CAUSE I HAD TO DO BOTH TO MY
00:27:08.040 --> 00:27:10.070
SONS, AND RAISIN' 'EM FROM THE
00:27:10.070 --> 00:27:12.180
DEAD WAS A PIECE OF CAKE
00:27:12.180 --> 00:27:13.240
COMPARED TO RAISIN' 'EM.
00:27:13.240 --> 00:27:15.110
SO, ANYWAY, YOU KNOW, THE
00:27:15.110 --> 00:27:17.100
SCRIPTURE SAYS THERE'S NOTHIN'
00:27:17.100 --> 00:27:18.170
THAT'S HAPPENED TO YOU THAT'S--
00:27:18.170 --> 00:27:19.280
BUT SUCH AS IS COMMON TO MAN.
00:27:20.190 --> 00:27:23.190
IT JUST COMES IN A DIFFERENT
00:27:23.190 --> 00:27:24.130
WRAPPER AND A DIFFERENT BOW, BUT
00:27:24.130 --> 00:27:25.110
IT'S THE SAME THING.
00:27:25.110 --> 00:27:26.260
I DEAL WITH THIS SAME THING.
00:27:26.260 --> 00:27:28.130
YOU KNOW, PEOPLE LOOK AT YOU,
00:27:28.130 --> 00:27:29.270
MATT AND LAURIE, AND THINK THAT
00:27:29.270 --> 00:27:30.230
YOU GUYS JUST DON'T HAVE THE
00:27:30.230 --> 00:27:32.000
SAME PROBLEMS AS THEY DO, BUT
00:27:32.000 --> 00:27:33.160
WHAT IT IS, YOUR PROBLEMS ARE
00:27:33.160 --> 00:27:35.060
MAGNIFIED OVER THEIRS.
00:27:35.060 --> 00:27:37.260
THEY'RE DEALIN' WITH $1.000.
00:27:37.260 --> 00:27:39.240
YOU'RE DEALING WITH MILLIONS OF
00:27:39.240 --> 00:27:40.200
DOLLARS.
00:27:40.200 --> 00:27:42.140
IT'S THE EXACT SAME THING.
00:27:42.140 --> 00:27:43.160
- LAURIE: ABSOLUTELY.
00:27:43.160 --> 00:27:44.270
- ANDREW: AND SO YOU JUST HAVE
00:27:44.270 --> 00:27:45.190
TO GET TO WHERE YOU SAY, "I'M
00:27:45.190 --> 00:27:48.030
BLESSED."
00:27:48.030 --> 00:27:50.290
I REMEMBER ONE TIME DRIVIN'
00:27:50.290 --> 00:27:51.190
OUT TO THIS PLACE WE
00:27:51.190 --> 00:27:52.290
WERE GONNA BUILD A HOUSE.
00:27:52.290 --> 00:27:54.060
I WOUND UP GETTIN' IT DONE, AND
00:27:54.060 --> 00:27:54.280
I'VE LIVED IN IT FOR 28 YEARS.
00:27:54.280 --> 00:27:56.110
BUT WE PUT IN THE FOUNDATION,
00:27:56.110 --> 00:27:58.060
AND THEN IT LOOKED LIKE WE RAN
00:27:58.060 --> 00:27:59.130
OUT OF MONEY AND THAT WE WEREN'T
00:27:59.130 --> 00:28:01.240
GONNA BE ABLE TO DO IT.
00:28:01.240 --> 00:28:02.130
AND I REMEMBER DRIVIN' OUT THERE
00:28:02.130 --> 00:28:04.140
AT 5 O'CLOCK IN THE MORNIN', AND
00:28:04.140 --> 00:28:06.050
I WAS SCREAMIN' AT THE TOP OF MY
00:28:06.050 --> 00:28:08.180
LUNGS, "I AM BLESSED!"
00:28:08.290 --> 00:28:11.290
AND THEN I'D GO, "I AM BLESSED.
00:28:11.290 --> 00:28:13.120
I AM BLESSED.
00:28:13.210 --> 00:28:16.210
I AM BLESSED."
00:28:16.210 --> 00:28:19.080
I SAID IT EVERY WAY YOU COULD
00:28:19.080 --> 00:28:19.290
SAY IT FOR AN HOUR AND A HALF!
00:28:19.290 --> 00:28:21.110
I JUST SCREAMED AND YELLED IT,
00:28:21.110 --> 00:28:22.220
AND THAT'S-- YOU HAVE TO FIRST
00:28:22.220 --> 00:28:24.120
OF ALL UNDERSTAND THE POWER OF A
00:28:24.120 --> 00:28:25.260
BLESSING.
00:28:25.260 --> 00:28:27.100
THEN YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT
00:28:27.100 --> 00:28:28.270
GOD HAS ALREADY DONE IT.
00:28:28.270 --> 00:28:30.140
IT SAYS IN EPHESIANS 1:3 THAT
00:28:30.140 --> 00:28:32.250
GOD "HATH BLESSED US WITH ALL
00:28:32.250 --> 00:28:34.210
SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS IN HEAVENLY
00:28:34.210 --> 00:28:36.160
PLACES."
00:28:36.160 --> 00:28:39.010
IT'S ALREADY DONE.
00:28:39.010 --> 00:28:40.060
WHERE, SEE, A MIRACLE ISN'T
00:28:40.060 --> 00:28:41.050
DONE.
00:28:41.050 --> 00:28:42.010
A MIRACLE IS A SUPERSEDING OR A
00:28:42.010 --> 00:28:42.230
SUSPENSION OF NATURAL LAWS, AND
00:28:42.230 --> 00:28:43.230
THAT IS NOT ALREADY DONE.
00:28:43.230 --> 00:28:46.230
THAT IS SOMETHIN' THAT GOD CAN
00:28:46.230 --> 00:28:47.150
DO ON A TEMPORARY BASIS, BUT
00:28:47.150 --> 00:28:48.180
IT'S NOT DONE.
00:28:48.180 --> 00:28:50.260
BUT YOU'RE ALREADY BLESSED.
00:28:50.260 --> 00:28:52.140
GOD HAS ALREADY SPOKEN HIS FAVOR
00:28:52.140 --> 00:28:53.150
OVER YOU.
00:28:53.150 --> 00:28:54.250
HE'S ALREADY SAID THAT
00:28:54.250 --> 00:28:56.000
EVERYTHING YOU SET YOUR HAND
00:28:56.000 --> 00:28:57.140
UNTO IS GONNA PROSPER.
00:28:57.140 --> 00:28:58.240
NOW, ARE YOU GONNA
00:28:58.240 --> 00:28:59.260
VOICE-ACTIVATE THAT BY SPEAKIN'
00:28:59.260 --> 00:29:01.150
IT, OR ARE YOU GONNA SPEAK FORTH
00:29:01.150 --> 00:29:02.230
YOUR FEARS AND SPEAK WHAT YOU
00:29:02.230 --> 00:29:03.220
FEEL?
00:29:03.220 --> 00:29:04.250
- MATT: WHAT DO YOU THINK THE
00:29:04.250 --> 00:29:06.080
VOICE-ACTIVATION THING IS ALL
00:29:06.080 --> 00:29:07.080
ABOUT?
00:29:07.090 --> 00:29:10.090
IF GOD HAS ALREADY DONE IT, AND
00:29:10.090 --> 00:29:11.140
AT THE CROSS HE SAID, "IT'S
00:29:11.140 --> 00:29:12.290
FINISHED," AND EVERY COMMANDED
00:29:12.290 --> 00:29:15.040
BLESSING IS OURS ALREADY, WHAT'S
00:29:15.040 --> 00:29:17.010
THE DEAL WITH US
00:29:17.010 --> 00:29:18.130
VOICE-ACTIVATING IT?
00:29:18.130 --> 00:29:20.250
WHAT DO YOU THINK THAT'S ABOUT?
00:29:20.250 --> 00:29:21.170
- ANDREW: GOD CREATED-- HE
00:29:21.170 --> 00:29:22.130
CREATED EVERYTHING BY WORDS.
00:29:22.130 --> 00:29:23.090
HE SPOKE THE WORLD INTO
00:29:23.090 --> 00:29:24.090
EXISTENCE.
00:29:24.090 --> 00:29:25.160
DID YOU KNOW THE MATERIAL THAT
00:29:25.160 --> 00:29:26.070
THIS IS MADE OUT OF WAS CREATED
00:29:26.070 --> 00:29:27.250
BY WORDS?
00:29:27.250 --> 00:29:29.080
YOU AND I WERE CREATED BY WORDS.
00:29:29.080 --> 00:29:30.160
SO WORDS ARE THE PARENT FORCE.
00:29:30.240 --> 00:29:33.240
EVERYTHING ON THIS PLANET
00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:35.230
RESPONDS TO WORDS.
00:29:35.230 --> 00:29:38.020
YOU KNOW, THAT'S AN ABSOLUTE
00:29:38.020 --> 00:29:39.020
TRUTH.
00:29:39.020 --> 00:29:40.190
I KNOW THAT THESE ARE PROBABLY
00:29:40.190 --> 00:29:42.070
FAKE.
00:29:42.070 --> 00:29:42.260
I DON'T KNOW BUT--
00:29:42.260 --> 00:29:43.170
- MATT: THOSE ARE FAKE, YEAH,
00:29:43.170 --> 00:29:44.200
FAKE FLOWERS.
00:29:44.200 --> 00:29:45.040
- ANDREW: BUT DID YOU KNOW THAT
00:29:45.040 --> 00:29:46.030
I'VE ACTUALLY SPOKEN TO PLANTS
00:29:46.030 --> 00:29:48.150
THAT WERE DYING AND JUST SPOKE
00:29:48.150 --> 00:29:50.200
LIFE OVER 'EM AND BLESSED 'EM
00:29:50.200 --> 00:29:51.240
AND STUFF, AND I'VE SEEN THOSE
00:29:51.240 --> 00:29:52.290
THINGS COME BACK TO LIFE.
00:29:54.050 --> 00:29:57.050
MY MOTHER KEPT ME ALIVE DURING
00:29:57.050 --> 00:29:57.260
THOSE POVERTY DAYS, AND SHE
00:29:57.260 --> 00:29:59.270
DIDN'T KNOW SHE WAS DOIN' IT,
00:29:59.270 --> 00:30:00.180
BUT I'D GO OVER AND MOW HER
00:30:00.180 --> 00:30:01.150
AND SHE'D FIX ME SOMETHING TO
00:30:04.060 --> 00:30:04.270
EAT, AND THAT'S THE ONLY THING
00:30:04.270 --> 00:30:05.190
WE'D EAT FOR A WEEK.
00:30:05.190 --> 00:30:07.160
AND WE HAD 23 PECAN TREES IN OUR
00:30:07.160 --> 00:30:08.190
YARD.
00:30:08.190 --> 00:30:10.120
I KNOW SOME PEOPLE CALL 'EM
00:30:10.120 --> 00:30:11.020
PECANS.
00:30:11.020 --> 00:30:13.000
I DON'T KNOW.
00:30:13.000 --> 00:30:13.250
YOU KNOW, I TOLD THEM THAT'S
00:30:13.250 --> 00:30:14.180
WHAT WE USED IF YOU DIDN'T WANNA
00:30:14.180 --> 00:30:15.110
GO ALL THE WAY OUT TO THE
00:30:15.110 --> 00:30:16.080
OUTHOUSE.
00:30:16.080 --> 00:30:17.260
BUT, ANYWAY, WE CALLED 'EM PECAN
00:30:19.030 --> 00:30:19.260
TREES.
00:30:19.260 --> 00:30:22.000
- LAURIE: THERE YOU GO!
00:30:22.000 --> 00:30:23.030
- ANDREW: SO, ANYWAY, SHE HAD
00:30:23.030 --> 00:30:24.130
23 PECAN TREES IN HER YARD, AND
00:30:24.130 --> 00:30:25.050
I'D MOW, AND AS I'D GO AROUND
00:30:25.050 --> 00:30:25.260
THOSE TREES, I WAS SO THANKFUL,
00:30:25.260 --> 00:30:28.260
AND SHE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THAT WE
00:30:28.260 --> 00:30:31.060
WERE STARVING OR ANYTHING, AND I
00:30:31.060 --> 00:30:32.080
DIDN'T WANNA TELL HER, SO I
00:30:32.080 --> 00:30:33.100
WOULD JUST BLESS THESE TREES.
00:30:33.100 --> 00:30:34.010
WHEN MY DAD DIED, WE USED TO
00:30:34.030 --> 00:30:37.030
HAVE 400-POUNDS OF PECANS A YEAR
00:30:37.030 --> 00:30:38.170
THAT WE WOULD PICK UP, AND WE'D
00:30:38.170 --> 00:30:39.270
SHELL 'EM AND SELL 'EM.
00:30:39.270 --> 00:30:41.090
AND WHEN HE DIED, SHE DIDN'T
00:30:41.090 --> 00:30:43.120
TAKE CARE OF 'EM, AND THEY HAD
00:30:43.120 --> 00:30:44.240
BAGWORMS, AND WE GOT TO WHERE WE
00:30:44.240 --> 00:30:46.040
HAD 50 POUNDS OF PECANS.
00:30:46.040 --> 00:30:48.120
SO I WOULD BLESS THOSE TREES AND
00:30:48.130 --> 00:30:51.130
JUST PRAY OVER 'EM.
00:30:51.130 --> 00:30:52.040
DIDN'T DO ANYTHING EXCEPT SPEAK
00:30:52.040 --> 00:30:53.100
TO 'EM, AND THAT YEAR, WE HAD
00:30:53.100 --> 00:30:54.160
OVER 600 POUNDS OF PECANS, WHERE
00:30:54.160 --> 00:30:55.130
IN THE PREVIOUS YEAR, WE HAD 50.
00:30:56.190 --> 00:30:59.190
- LAURIE: WOW!
00:30:59.190 --> 00:31:00.160
- ANDREW: EVERYTHING ON THIS
00:31:00.160 --> 00:31:02.000
PLANET RESPONDS TO WORDS.
00:31:02.000 --> 00:31:03.280
IT SAYS, PROVERBS 18:21, "DEATH
00:31:03.280 --> 00:31:05.090
AND LIFE ARE IN THE POWER OF OUR
00:31:05.090 --> 00:31:07.200
TONGUE," AND SO WORDS ARE
00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:08.150
POWERFUL.
00:31:08.150 --> 00:31:10.040
PSALMS CHAPTER 91, "I WILL SAY
00:31:10.040 --> 00:31:12.090
OF THE LORD, 'HE IS MY REFUGE
00:31:12.090 --> 00:31:13.040
AND MY FORTRESS.'"
00:31:13.150 --> 00:31:16.150
PEOPLE WILL OFTEN QUOTE
00:31:16.150 --> 00:31:17.030
PSALMS 91 ABOUT NO PLAGUE
00:31:17.030 --> 00:31:18.090
COMIN' NIGH YOUR DWELLING,
00:31:18.090 --> 00:31:19.190
AND ALL OF THESE THINGS,
00:31:19.190 --> 00:31:20.160
BUT THEY DON'T SAY IT.
00:31:20.160 --> 00:31:22.110
INSTEAD, SOMEBODY SAYS, "HOW ARE
00:31:22.110 --> 00:31:23.160
YOU?"
00:31:23.160 --> 00:31:24.150
AND THEY SAY, "OH, MAN, I'M
00:31:24.150 --> 00:31:26.020
SICK," "THE DOCTOR SAYS I'M
00:31:26.020 --> 00:31:26.240
DYIN'," "I'M GONNA LOSE MY
00:31:26.240 --> 00:31:27.270
BUSINESS," "MY MARRIAGE IS
00:31:27.270 --> 00:31:29.000
FALLING APART," AND THEY DON'T
00:31:29.000 --> 00:31:30.130
REALIZE IT, BUT THEY'RE HUNG BY
00:31:30.130 --> 00:31:31.190
THEIR TONGUE.
00:31:31.190 --> 00:31:33.090
THEY'RE DESTROYING THEMSELF WITH
00:31:33.090 --> 00:31:34.140
THEIR OWN WORDS.
00:31:34.140 --> 00:31:35.170
JESUS SAID IN THE 11TH CHAPTER
00:31:35.170 --> 00:31:38.140
OF MARK, HE SAYS, "WHOEVER WILL
00:31:38.140 --> 00:31:40.110
SAY UNTO THIS MOUNTAIN, 'BE THOU
00:31:40.110 --> 00:31:42.080
REMOVED, BE THOU CAST INTO THE
00:31:42.080 --> 00:31:44.110
SEA,' AND SHALL NOT DOUBT IN HIS
00:31:44.110 --> 00:31:45.260
HEART, BUT BELIEVE THAT THOSE
00:31:45.260 --> 00:31:47.030
THINGS WHICH HE SAITH WILL COME
00:31:47.030 --> 00:31:48.180
TO PASS, HE WILL HAVE WHATSOEVER
00:31:48.180 --> 00:31:49.160
HE SAITH."
00:31:49.160 --> 00:31:51.000
SO THE BLESSING OF
00:31:51.000 --> 00:31:52.110
GOD IS VOICE ACTIVATED.
00:31:52.110 --> 00:31:54.090
YOU HAVE TO SPEAK IT.
00:31:54.090 --> 00:31:55.260
AND WHEN YOU START SPEAKING--
00:31:55.260 --> 00:31:57.250
EVERYTHING IN THIS WORLD SYSTEM
00:31:57.250 --> 00:31:59.190
WAS CREATED BY WORDS-- IT WILL
00:31:59.190 --> 00:32:01.190
RESPOND TO WORDS.
00:32:01.190 --> 00:32:04.010
AND YOU START SPEAKING THE
00:32:04.010 --> 00:32:04.240
BLESSING OF GOD OVER YOU, AND
00:32:04.240 --> 00:32:06.040
IT'LL COME TO PASS.
00:32:06.040 --> 00:32:07.130
THE ONLY EXCEPTION TO THAT, IT
00:32:07.130 --> 00:32:09.270
SAYS IN ROMANS CHAPTER 10, YOU
00:32:09.270 --> 00:32:12.110
HAVE TO CONFESS WITH YOUR MOUTH
00:32:12.110 --> 00:32:13.230
AND BELIEVE WITH YOUR HEART.
00:32:13.230 --> 00:32:15.130
IT'S NOT JUST MOUTHING IT BUT
00:32:15.130 --> 00:32:17.220
THEN IN YOUR HEART DOUBTING IT;
00:32:17.220 --> 00:32:19.230
BUT IF YOU CAN BELIEVE IT IN
00:32:19.230 --> 00:32:21.270
YOUR HEART AND SPEAK IT OUT YOUR
00:32:21.270 --> 00:32:23.100
MOUTH, YOU WILL RELEASE THE
00:32:23.100 --> 00:32:25.030
SUPERNATURAL POWER OF GOD, AND
00:32:25.030 --> 00:32:26.170
THIS BLESSING WILL BEGIN TO
00:32:26.170 --> 00:32:28.250
START FLOWIN' IN YOUR LIFE.
00:32:28.250 --> 00:32:30.220
- MATT: WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
00:32:30.220 --> 00:32:32.030
"LIVING IN GOD'S BEST,"
00:32:32.030 --> 00:32:33.030
IT'S JUST OUT, JUST RECENTLY OUT
00:32:35.280 --> 00:32:36.210
JUST LAST WEEK OR SO.
00:32:36.210 --> 00:32:39.010
AND IT IS AVAILABLE BY CALLING
00:32:39.010 --> 00:32:41.280
THE NUMBER ON YOUR SCREEN.
00:32:41.280 --> 00:32:44.030
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE
00:32:44.030 --> 00:32:45.180
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MIRACLES AND
00:32:45.180 --> 00:32:46.150
BLESSINGS.
00:32:46.150 --> 00:32:48.150
AND BLESSINGS ARE
00:32:48.150 --> 00:32:49.030
VOICE-ACTIVATED AND--
00:32:49.030 --> 00:32:52.020
- LAURIE: WELL, YOU WERE
00:32:52.020 --> 00:32:52.210
TALKIN' ABOUT THAT, WHEN THE
00:32:52.210 --> 00:32:54.190
CHILDREN OF ISRAEL WERE LIVING
00:32:54.190 --> 00:32:57.140
ON THE MANNA, THAT THAT WAS A
00:32:57.140 --> 00:32:58.050
MIRACLE, BUT IT WAS-- YOU SAY
00:32:58.050 --> 00:33:00.060
IT.
00:33:00.060 --> 00:33:00.220
- ANDREW: TEMPORARY.
00:33:00.220 --> 00:33:01.090
- LAURIE: YEAH.
00:33:01.090 --> 00:33:02.080
- MATT: YEAH.
00:33:02.080 --> 00:33:03.070
- ANDREW: IT WAS TEMPORARY.
00:33:03.070 --> 00:33:03.270
- LAURIE: BUT IT WAS BETTER IN
00:33:03.270 --> 00:33:04.190
THE PROMISED LAND.
00:33:04.190 --> 00:33:05.160
- ANDREW: AND WHEN THEY ENTERED
00:33:05.160 --> 00:33:06.090
INTO THE-- I CAN JUST GUARANTEE
00:33:06.090 --> 00:33:07.010
YOU THIS, BECAUSE I DEAL WITH
00:33:07.010 --> 00:33:07.220
PEOPLE, THAT THERE WERE SOME OF
00:33:07.220 --> 00:33:09.200
THOSE PEOPLE THAT WERE RAISED IN
00:33:09.200 --> 00:33:11.080
THE WILDERNESS AND HAD NEVER
00:33:11.080 --> 00:33:12.250
EATEN ANYTHING BUT MANNA, THAT
00:33:12.250 --> 00:33:14.140
WHEN THEY WENT INTO THE
00:33:14.140 --> 00:33:16.130
PROMISED LAND, THEY SAID, "NO
00:33:16.130 --> 00:33:17.080
WAY AM I GONNA DIG A HOLE IN THE
00:33:17.080 --> 00:33:20.040
GROUND AND PLANT SEEDS AND WEED
00:33:20.040 --> 00:33:21.080
IT AND DO THIS.
00:33:21.080 --> 00:33:22.230
I'M GONNA GO OUT AND GATHER MY
00:33:22.230 --> 00:33:23.200
MANNA."
00:33:23.200 --> 00:33:25.200
AND, YET IT SAYS IN JOSHUA
00:33:25.200 --> 00:33:26.250
CHAPTER 5 THAT, ON THE NEXT DAY
00:33:26.250 --> 00:33:29.090
AFTER THEY ENTERED INTO THE
00:33:29.090 --> 00:33:30.250
PROMISED LAND, THE MANNA CEASED,
00:33:30.250 --> 00:33:32.250
AND THEY NEVER HAD IT AGAIN.
00:33:32.250 --> 00:33:33.240
IT WAS ONLY TEMPORARY.
00:33:33.240 --> 00:33:35.190
AND IF A PERSON SAYS, "WELL, I'M
00:33:35.190 --> 00:33:37.080
A FULL-GOSPEL PERSON," "I'M NOT
00:33:37.080 --> 00:33:38.190
GONNA SIT HERE AND WORK TO GET
00:33:38.190 --> 00:33:40.080
MINE," "I'M GONNA JUST RECEIVE
00:33:40.080 --> 00:33:42.020
IT DIRECTLY FROM GOD," THEY
00:33:42.020 --> 00:33:43.220
WOULD'VE STARVED TO DEATH
00:33:43.220 --> 00:33:44.170
BECAUSE THE TIME FOR THE MIRACLE
00:33:44.170 --> 00:33:45.260
WAS OVER, AND NOW YOU HAVE TO
00:33:45.260 --> 00:33:47.220
START PUTTING INTO PRACTICE THE
00:33:47.220 --> 00:33:49.060
LAWS THAT GOD CREATED IN THE
00:33:49.060 --> 00:33:51.060
NATURAL AND SPIRITUAL REALM TO
00:33:51.060 --> 00:33:52.200
REAP AND TO BE ABLE TO EAT.
00:33:52.220 --> 00:33:55.220
- MATT: OKAY, FOR THE BEGINNER
00:33:55.220 --> 00:33:57.030
WHO DOESN'T HAVE THIS BOOK IN
00:33:58.060 --> 00:34:01.080
THEIR HAND YET-- THEY'LL GET IT,
00:34:01.080 --> 00:34:02.160
AND IT'LL GET TO YOU AND ALL
00:34:02.160 --> 00:34:03.260
THAT, AND WE'LL READ IT AND THEN
00:34:03.260 --> 00:34:04.210
DO IT--
00:34:04.210 --> 00:34:06.230
HOW DO WE GET STARTED WITH THIS?
00:34:06.230 --> 00:34:08.290
WHAT ARE THE BEGINNING COURSE OF
00:34:09.140 --> 00:34:12.140
HEARING OUR OWN VOICE SAY WHAT?
00:34:12.140 --> 00:34:14.030
- ANDREW: WELL, YOU'VE GOT TO
00:34:14.030 --> 00:34:14.260
UNDERSTAND WHAT WE'VE SAID,
00:34:14.260 --> 00:34:15.190
FIRST OF ALL, ABOUT THAT THE
00:34:15.190 --> 00:34:16.260
BLESSING IS BETTER THAN A
00:34:16.260 --> 00:34:17.260
MIRACLE.
00:34:17.260 --> 00:34:18.160
YOU'VE GOT TO UNDERSTAND IT'S
00:34:18.160 --> 00:34:19.160
THE FAVOR OF GOD AND THAT YOU
00:34:19.160 --> 00:34:20.260
HAVE TO SPEAK IT OVER YOURSELF.
00:34:20.260 --> 00:34:22.080
IT'S VOICE-ACTIVATED.
00:34:22.080 --> 00:34:23.060
AND IF YOU UNDERSTAND THOSE
00:34:23.060 --> 00:34:25.060
THINGS AND REALLY BELIEVE IT,
00:34:25.060 --> 00:34:26.200
THEN IT'S AS SIMPLE AS JUST
00:34:26.200 --> 00:34:28.010
TURNING TO THE WORD AND FINDIN'
00:34:28.010 --> 00:34:29.090
OUT WHAT ARE THE BLESSINGS THAT
00:34:29.090 --> 00:34:31.160
GOD HAS SAID.
00:34:31.160 --> 00:34:32.270
LIKE, FOR INSTANCE, EPHESIANS
00:34:32.270 --> 00:34:34.070
1:3, YOU'RE BLESSED WITH ALL
00:34:34.070 --> 00:34:35.220
SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS.
00:34:35.220 --> 00:34:37.210
- MATT: BEAUTIFUL.
00:34:37.210 --> 00:34:38.180
- ANDREW: YOU'RE BLESSED WITH
00:34:38.180 --> 00:34:39.100
HEALING.
00:34:39.100 --> 00:34:40.160
YOU'RE BLESSED WITH PROSPERITY.
00:34:40.160 --> 00:34:41.220
YOU'RE BLESSED WITH JOY, PEACE,
00:34:41.220 --> 00:34:42.290
HAPPINESS, AND YOU JUST START
00:34:42.290 --> 00:34:44.120
TAKIN' THESE THINGS.
00:34:44.120 --> 00:34:45.090
DEUTERONOMY CHAPTER 28 IS A
00:34:45.090 --> 00:34:46.000
GREAT PLACE TO TURN WHERE IT
00:34:46.000 --> 00:34:47.260
SAYS THAT, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE
00:34:47.260 --> 00:34:48.250
BLESSED COMIN' IN; YOU'RE
00:34:48.250 --> 00:34:50.150
BLESSED GOIN' OUT.
00:34:50.150 --> 00:34:51.150
YOU'RE BLESSED IN YOUR BASKET
00:34:51.150 --> 00:34:52.210
AND IN YOUR STORE.
00:34:52.210 --> 00:34:53.280
WHATEVER YOU SET YOUR HAND UNTO
00:34:53.280 --> 00:34:55.270
IS BLESSED, AND YOU JUST START
00:34:55.270 --> 00:34:57.170
SPEAKING THESE THINGS.
00:34:57.170 --> 00:34:59.080
YOU KNOW, I HAD A SITUATION
00:34:59.080 --> 00:35:01.050
WHERE I WAS BUYING A HOUSE, AND
00:35:01.050 --> 00:35:02.210
I DEFAULTED ON THE PAYMENT.
00:35:02.210 --> 00:35:05.060
THE LANDLORD OR THE OWNER WAS
00:35:05.060 --> 00:35:06.230
CARRYING IT, AND I WENT TO HIM
00:35:06.230 --> 00:35:08.200
AND TOLD HIM, I SAID, "I'M
00:35:08.200 --> 00:35:09.100
SORRY.
00:35:09.100 --> 00:35:10.030
I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY," BUT I
00:35:10.030 --> 00:35:10.260
SAID, "MY WIFE'S BLOOD'S WORTH
00:35:10.260 --> 00:35:12.060
$150 A PINT."
00:35:12.060 --> 00:35:14.280
I SAID, "WE'LL GET YOU YOUR
00:35:14.280 --> 00:35:16.160
MONEY, BUT I DON'T HAVE
00:35:16.160 --> 00:35:17.040
IT TODAY."
00:35:17.040 --> 00:35:18.040
AND HE SAYS, "WELL, YOU CAN
00:35:18.040 --> 00:35:19.030
WORK IT OFF."
00:35:19.030 --> 00:35:20.160
AND HE HAD A PHOTO SHOP,
00:35:20.280 --> 00:35:23.280
AND HE HAD A CONTRACT WITH THE
00:35:23.280 --> 00:35:24.270
HIGH SCHOOL TO PRODUCE ALL
00:35:24.270 --> 00:35:26.140
I'D NEVER DONE THAT IN MY LIFE,
00:35:28.290 --> 00:35:30.080
BUT I SAID, "I'LL DO IT."
00:35:30.160 --> 00:35:33.160
AND I GOT IN, AND I STARTED
00:35:33.160 --> 00:35:34.090
SPEAKING OVER MYSELF THAT
00:35:34.090 --> 00:35:34.280
"I CAN DO THIS."
00:35:34.280 --> 00:35:35.150
AND THE VERY FIRST TIME
00:35:35.150 --> 00:35:36.200
HE TOOK ME IN AND SHOT ONE OF
00:35:36.200 --> 00:35:38.120
THESE PICTURES AND CAME OUT AND
00:35:38.120 --> 00:35:39.180
LOOKED AT IT, AND HE SAYS,
00:35:39.180 --> 00:35:40.130
"WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS
00:35:40.130 --> 00:35:41.070
PICTURE?"
00:35:41.070 --> 00:35:41.240
AND I SAID, "NOTHIN'.
00:35:41.240 --> 00:35:43.150
IT LOOKS GREAT TO ME."
00:35:43.150 --> 00:35:44.170
[LAUGHTER]
00:35:44.170 --> 00:35:45.070
AND HE SAYS,
00:35:45.070 --> 00:35:45.240
"TOO MUCH MAGENTA."
00:35:45.240 --> 00:35:47.050
I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT
00:35:47.050 --> 00:35:47.230
MAGENTA WAS!
00:35:47.230 --> 00:35:49.020
[LAUGHTER]
00:35:49.020 --> 00:35:50.210
AND HE GAVE ME JUST ABOUT
00:35:50.210 --> 00:35:52.000
AN HOUR'S WORTH OF TRAININ',
00:35:52.000 --> 00:35:53.030
AND THEN HE TURNED ME LOOSE.
00:35:53.030 --> 00:35:54.190
AND, ANYWAY, IT'S A LONG STORY,
00:35:54.190 --> 00:35:55.150
BUT I DID THINGS THAT HE HAD
00:35:55.150 --> 00:35:58.010
BEEN DOIN' THIS FOR 26 YEARS,
00:35:58.010 --> 00:35:59.040
AND HE CAME IN ONE TIME, AND HE
00:35:59.040 --> 00:36:01.060
SAYS, "I SAW THIS!"
00:36:01.060 --> 00:36:02.180
HE SAYS, "YOU COULDN'T DO THIS
00:36:02.180 --> 00:36:03.120
AGAIN IF YOUR LIFE DEPENDED ON
00:36:03.120 --> 00:36:04.180
IT."
00:36:04.180 --> 00:36:05.030
HE SAID, "I WAS RAISED IN
00:36:05.030 --> 00:36:06.160
THIS BUSINESS.
00:36:06.160 --> 00:36:07.050
I'VE DONE THIS FOR 26 YEARS.
00:36:07.050 --> 00:36:09.000
YOU COULDN'T DO THAT AGAIN!"
00:36:09.000 --> 00:36:10.090
I TOOK HIM INTO ANOTHER ROOM AND
00:36:10.090 --> 00:36:13.050
SHOWED HIM OVER 100 PICTURES
00:36:13.050 --> 00:36:14.070
THAT I HAD DONE THAT EXACT SAME
00:36:14.070 --> 00:36:16.180
THING TO, AND HE JUST THREW HIS
00:36:16.180 --> 00:36:17.240
HANDS UP, AND HE SAYS, "I DON'T
00:36:17.240 --> 00:36:18.160
KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOIN', BUT," HE
00:36:18.160 --> 00:36:19.270
SAYS, "KEEP DOIN' IT."
00:36:19.270 --> 00:36:22.050
AND I SAVED THE GUY'S BUSINESS.
00:36:22.050 --> 00:36:23.070
HE OFFERED ME 50% OWNERSHIP IN
00:36:23.070 --> 00:36:25.070
HIS BUSINESS AFTER 2 MONTHS
00:36:25.070 --> 00:36:27.140
BECAUSE IT HAD TURNED AROUND.
00:36:27.140 --> 00:36:29.040
AND THAT'S WHEN GOD CALLED ME TO
00:36:29.040 --> 00:36:31.050
GO TO ANOTHER PLACE, AND I HAD
00:36:31.050 --> 00:36:33.000
TO TURN HIM DOWN 'CAUSE I WAS
00:36:33.000 --> 00:36:33.220
CALLED TO SOMEPLACE ELSE.
00:36:33.220 --> 00:36:34.170
AND HE BROUGHT IN A REPLACEMENT,
00:36:34.170 --> 00:36:37.130
AND THIS REPLACEMENT, I STARTED
00:36:37.130 --> 00:36:38.160
TRAINING HIM, AND WE WENT IN AND
00:36:38.160 --> 00:36:41.090
SHOT A PICTURE AND BROUGHT IT
00:36:41.090 --> 00:36:43.030
OUT, AND I SAID, "WHAT'S WRONG
00:36:43.030 --> 00:36:43.250
WITH THIS PICTURE?"
00:36:43.250 --> 00:36:44.130
HE SAID, "NOTHING."
00:36:44.130 --> 00:36:45.140
I SAID, "TOO MUCH MAGENTA"!
00:36:45.140 --> 00:36:46.160
[LAUGHTER]
00:36:46.160 --> 00:36:48.290
AND, ANYWAY, I STARTED TRYIN'
00:36:48.290 --> 00:36:50.090
TO TRAIN HIM, AND FINALLY HE
00:36:50.090 --> 00:36:51.160
SAYS, "HOW DO YOU KNOW
00:36:51.160 --> 00:36:52.110
THESE THINGS?
00:36:52.110 --> 00:36:53.020
HOW IS IT THAT YOU CAN TELL
00:36:53.020 --> 00:36:53.280
THIS?"
00:36:53.280 --> 00:36:54.280
AND I FINALLY JUST SAID, "I PRAY
00:36:54.280 --> 00:36:56.020
IN TONGUES, AND GOD TELLS ME
00:36:56.020 --> 00:36:58.010
WHAT TO DO."
00:36:58.010 --> 00:36:59.190
AND THIS PANIC CAME OVER THIS
00:36:59.190 --> 00:37:01.190
GUY'S FACE LIKE, "WHAT
00:37:01.190 --> 00:37:02.180
DO I DO?"
00:37:02.180 --> 00:37:04.010
AND I SAID, "I CAN TEACH YOU HOW
00:37:04.010 --> 00:37:05.090
TO PRAY IN TONGUES, AND OTHER
00:37:05.090 --> 00:37:06.090
THAN THAT, YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN!"
00:37:06.090 --> 00:37:07.120
[LAUGHTER]
00:37:07.120 --> 00:37:09.000
AND I'VE JUST SEEN GOD'S
00:37:09.000 --> 00:37:10.050
BLESSING ON ME, AND IT'S
00:37:10.050 --> 00:37:12.200
BECAUSE, FIRST OF ALL, I BELIEVE
00:37:12.200 --> 00:37:13.200
I'M BLESSED.
00:37:13.200 --> 00:37:14.260
- MATT: YEAH.
00:37:14.260 --> 00:37:15.190
- ANDREW: IF YOU ASK ME HOW I
00:37:15.190 --> 00:37:17.050
AM, I CAN GUARANTEE YOU, I SAY
00:37:17.050 --> 00:37:18.100
IT A HUNDRED TIMES A DAY, "I'M
00:37:18.100 --> 00:37:20.000
BLESSED," WHEN PEOPLE SAY, "HOW
00:37:20.000 --> 00:37:20.280
ARE YA?"
00:37:20.280 --> 00:37:22.010
"I'M BLESSED." I HAVE BEEN
00:37:22.010 --> 00:37:24.040
SAYIN' IT FOR 20 OR 30 YEARS,
00:37:24.040 --> 00:37:25.080
"I'M BLESSED," EVERY DAY.
00:37:25.080 --> 00:37:26.220
WHEN EVERYTHING IN MY LIFE LOOKS
00:37:26.220 --> 00:37:28.100
LIKE I'M CURSED, I'LL STILL
00:37:28.100 --> 00:37:29.290
SPEAK THAT I'M BLESSED.
00:37:29.290 --> 00:37:32.120
I'LL SPEAK IT, AND YOU DO THAT,
00:37:32.120 --> 00:37:33.130
AND AFTER A WHILE, YOU GET TO
00:37:33.130 --> 00:37:35.170
WHERE YOU REALLY BELIEVE IT.
00:37:35.170 --> 00:37:36.250
AND BECAUSE OF IT, I BELIEVE
00:37:36.250 --> 00:37:37.290
THAT YOU COULD PUT ME IN ANY
00:37:37.290 --> 00:37:39.120
SITUATION, AND I'M GONNA COME
00:37:39.120 --> 00:37:40.090
OUT AHEAD.
00:37:40.090 --> 00:37:41.070
I'M BLESSED.
00:37:41.070 --> 00:37:42.210
AND SO TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION,
00:37:42.210 --> 00:37:44.100
YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE THIS.
00:37:44.100 --> 00:37:46.140
YOU HAVE TO REALLY BELIEVE IT.
00:37:46.140 --> 00:37:47.210
AND THEN, IF YOU BELIEVE IT, YOU
00:37:47.210 --> 00:37:48.260
HAVE TO SPEAK IT.
00:37:48.260 --> 00:37:51.110
INSTEAD OF WHAT YOU FEEL, YOU
00:37:51.110 --> 00:37:52.200
HAVE TO SPEAK WHAT YOU BELIEVE.
00:37:52.200 --> 00:37:53.170
- MATT: WOW!
00:37:53.170 --> 00:37:54.230
- ANDREW: YOU KNOW, I HAD A
00:37:54.230 --> 00:37:55.130
MAN-- HAVE YOU GOT SOMETHIN'
00:37:55.130 --> 00:37:56.230
THAT--
00:37:56.230 --> 00:37:57.270
- MATT: OH, I WAS JUST GONNA
00:37:57.270 --> 00:37:58.180
SAY, DO YOU THINK YOU-- DO YOU
00:37:58.180 --> 00:38:00.120
BELIEVE THAT YOU COULD BEAT ME
00:38:00.120 --> 00:38:01.040
IN ARM WRESTLING?
00:38:01.040 --> 00:38:02.060
BECAUSE I DON'T THINK YOU COULD!
00:38:02.060 --> 00:38:03.260
- ANDREW: WELL, THERE'S SOME
00:38:03.260 --> 00:38:04.210
NATURAL LAWS.
00:38:04.210 --> 00:38:06.040
IT MIGHT TAKE A MIRACLE.
00:38:06.040 --> 00:38:07.000
[LAUGHTER]
00:38:07.000 --> 00:38:08.100
IT MIGHT HAVE TO BE
00:38:08.100 --> 00:38:08.270
A MIRACLE!
00:38:08.270 --> 00:38:11.160
BUT I HAD THIS GUY, ONE TIME,
00:38:11.160 --> 00:38:13.230
THAT HE WAS A GREETER AT OUR
00:38:13.230 --> 00:38:15.190
CHURCH, AND HE WAS AN OLDER
00:38:15.190 --> 00:38:17.180
FELLOW, AND HE GOT PNEUMONIA,
00:38:17.180 --> 00:38:19.000
AND HE WENT INTO THE HOSPITAL,
00:38:19.000 --> 00:38:20.120
AND THEY RELEASED HIM, BUT HE
00:38:20.120 --> 00:38:21.060
COULDN'T GET OVER IT, AND HE HAD
00:38:21.060 --> 00:38:22.080
MISSED CHURCH FOR WEEK AFTER
00:38:22.080 --> 00:38:23.200
WEEK, SO I FINALLY WENT OVER TO
00:38:23.200 --> 00:38:25.010
HIS HOUSE, AND GOD HAD JUST BEEN
00:38:25.010 --> 00:38:27.040
SHOWIN' ME THESE THINGS, AND HE
00:38:27.040 --> 00:38:27.270
WAS JUST CRYIN'.
00:38:27.270 --> 00:38:30.160
HE SAYS, "I KNOW GOD HEALS.
00:38:30.160 --> 00:38:31.290
I'VE SEEN GOD HEAL ME, BUT I
00:38:31.290 --> 00:38:33.220
CAN'T SEEM TO GET OVER THIS."
00:38:33.220 --> 00:38:35.150
AND HE WAS JUST DISTRAUGHT.
00:38:36.250 --> 00:38:39.250
AND SO I JUST TOOK MY HANDS AND
00:38:39.250 --> 00:38:40.170
CUPPED THEM OVER HIS CHEST, AND
00:38:40.170 --> 00:38:42.210
I SPOKE THE BLESSING INTO HIS
00:38:42.210 --> 00:38:45.080
LUNGS.
00:38:45.080 --> 00:38:45.280
I SAID, "LUNGS, YOU ARE
00:38:45.280 --> 00:38:46.230
BLESSED."
00:38:46.230 --> 00:38:47.240
AND I KNOW SOME PEOPLE
00:38:47.240 --> 00:38:49.040
THINK THIS IS WEIRD, BUT, YOU
00:38:49.040 --> 00:38:49.250
KNOW, JESUS SAID YOU HAVE TO
00:38:49.250 --> 00:38:50.240
SPEAK TO YOUR MOUNTAIN.
00:38:50.240 --> 00:38:51.270
HE DIDN'T TELL YOU TO SPEAK TO
00:38:51.270 --> 00:38:52.280
GOD ABOUT YOUR MOUNTAIN.
00:38:52.280 --> 00:38:54.260
HE TOLD YOU TO SPEAK TO THE
00:38:54.260 --> 00:38:55.270
MOUNTAIN.
00:38:55.270 --> 00:38:57.200
AND THAT MAN'S PROBLEM WASN'T
00:38:57.200 --> 00:38:58.170
GOD.
00:38:58.170 --> 00:39:00.030
IT WAS THE PHLEGM THAT WAS IN
00:39:00.030 --> 00:39:00.260
HIS LUNGS.
00:39:00.260 --> 00:39:02.090
SO I CUPPED MY HANDS, AND I JUST
00:39:02.090 --> 00:39:03.240
STARTED SPEAKIN'.
00:39:03.240 --> 00:39:05.170
FIRST OF ALL, I CURSED THAT
00:39:05.170 --> 00:39:07.190
PNEUMONIA AND COMMANDED IT TO
00:39:07.190 --> 00:39:08.170
DIE.
00:39:08.170 --> 00:39:09.180
DEATH AND LIFE ARE IN THE POWER
00:39:09.180 --> 00:39:10.100
OF THE TONGUE.
00:39:10.100 --> 00:39:11.210
AND THEN I JUST SPOKE THE
00:39:11.210 --> 00:39:13.010
BLESSING OF GOD:
00:39:13.010 --> 00:39:14.030
"LUNGS, YOU'RE BLESSED!
00:39:14.030 --> 00:39:14.280
YOU'RE HEALED!"
00:39:14.280 --> 00:39:16.050
AND I JUST STARTED SPEAKIN' TO
00:39:16.050 --> 00:39:17.150
HIS LUNGS AND BLESSING THEM.
00:39:17.150 --> 00:39:19.020
AND HE HAD TO LITERALLY PUSH ME
00:39:19.020 --> 00:39:21.100
OUT OF THE WAY AND GO AND GET A
00:39:21.100 --> 00:39:22.030
TOWEL.
00:39:22.030 --> 00:39:22.220
HE HAD TO GET TWO TOWELS, AND HE
00:39:22.220 --> 00:39:23.150
COUGHED UP ALL OF THIS PHLEGM,
00:39:23.150 --> 00:39:25.050
AND WITHIN 10 MINUTES, HE WAS
00:39:25.050 --> 00:39:26.190
TOTALLY NORMAL!
00:39:26.190 --> 00:39:27.200
- LAURIE: MY GOODNESS!
00:39:27.200 --> 00:39:28.230
- ANDREW: AND THAT'S THE POWER
00:39:28.230 --> 00:39:29.240
OF A BLESSING.
00:39:29.240 --> 00:39:30.160
- MATT: WOW.
00:39:30.160 --> 00:39:31.040
- ANDREW: AND, YET OFTEN WE'RE,
00:39:31.040 --> 00:39:33.130
"GOD HEALED ME."
00:39:33.130 --> 00:39:35.250
WHAT YOU NEED TO DO IS
00:39:35.250 --> 00:39:36.210
STARTED THANKIN'.
00:39:36.210 --> 00:39:37.160
"FATHER, THANK YOU THAT YOU HAVE
00:39:37.160 --> 00:39:38.090
HEALED ME, AND YOU HAVE GIVEN ME
00:39:38.090 --> 00:39:39.020
THIS RAISING-FROM-THE-DEAD
00:39:39.020 --> 00:39:40.180
POWER.
00:39:40.180 --> 00:39:41.230
I HAVE THIS AUTHORITY, AND THEN
00:39:41.230 --> 00:39:43.030
YOU ACTIVATE IT BY SPEAKING, "I
00:39:43.030 --> 00:39:44.200
AM BLESSED.
00:39:44.200 --> 00:39:46.050
I'M HEALED."
00:39:46.050 --> 00:39:47.220
YOU START SPEAKING THE THINGS,
00:39:47.220 --> 00:39:50.020
AND I GUARANTEE YOU,
00:39:50.020 --> 00:39:50.190
YOU'LL SEE RESULTS HAPPEN.
00:39:50.190 --> 00:39:52.080
- LAURIE: OKAY, SO BALAAM SAID,
00:39:53.210 --> 00:39:56.210
"I CAN'T REVERSE IT.
00:39:56.210 --> 00:39:58.030
I'VE TRIED, I CAN'T DO IT, BUT
00:39:58.030 --> 00:39:58.240
THE PEOPLE THEMSELVES CAN DO
00:39:58.240 --> 00:39:59.150
IT."
00:39:59.150 --> 00:40:00.130
HOW-- WHERE-- WHAT?
00:40:00.130 --> 00:40:02.110
- ANDREW: THEY CURSED THEMSELF.
00:40:02.110 --> 00:40:05.020
AND, YOU KNOW, THIS CAN BE DONE
00:40:05.020 --> 00:40:06.180
IN OBVIOUS WAYS, SUCH AS YOU
00:40:06.180 --> 00:40:08.080
COULD GO OUT AND COMMIT
00:40:08.080 --> 00:40:09.080
ADULTERY, YOU CAN LIE, AND YOU
00:40:09.080 --> 00:40:09.290
CAN STEAL.
00:40:09.290 --> 00:40:10.190
AND EVEN THOUGH GOD STILL LOVES
00:40:10.190 --> 00:40:11.200
YOU, AND IT DOESN'T CHANGE GOD'S
00:40:11.200 --> 00:40:12.220
FEELINGS TOWARDS YOU AT ALL, IT
00:40:12.220 --> 00:40:14.090
SAYS IN ROMANS 6:16, "KNOW YOU
00:40:14.090 --> 00:40:16.040
NOT, THAT TO WHOM YOU YIELD
00:40:16.040 --> 00:40:18.000
HIS SERVANT YOU ARE TO WHOM YOU
00:40:22.100 --> 00:40:23.020
OBEY, WHETHER OF SIN UNTO DEATH,
00:40:23.020 --> 00:40:23.250
OR OF OBEDIENCE UNTO
00:40:23.250 --> 00:40:24.170
RIGHTEOUSNESS?"
00:40:24.170 --> 00:40:26.020
GOD LOVES US INDEPENDENT OF OUR
00:40:26.020 --> 00:40:26.250
PERFORMANCE.
00:40:26.250 --> 00:40:28.080
IT'S TOTALLY GRACE, BUT WHEN YOU
00:40:28.080 --> 00:40:29.090
YOU JUST INVITE THE DEVIL TO
00:40:32.230 --> 00:40:33.140
COME IN AND BRING HIS WORST, AND
00:40:33.140 --> 00:40:35.080
YOU AREN'T GONNA PROSPER IF YOU
00:40:35.080 --> 00:40:36.020
DO THAT.
00:40:36.020 --> 00:40:38.010
SO THERE'S OBVIOUS WAYS THAT YOU
00:40:38.010 --> 00:40:38.230
CAN STOP THE BLESSING, BUT
00:40:38.230 --> 00:40:41.000
THERE'S SUBTLE WAYS TOO.
00:40:41.000 --> 00:40:42.230
AND, YOU KNOW, WHAT YOU
00:40:42.230 --> 00:40:44.120
MENTIONED JUST A MINUTE AGO, IN
00:40:44.120 --> 00:40:46.010
JANUARY THE 31ST, 2002, IS WHEN
00:40:46.010 --> 00:40:48.060
THE LORD SPOKE TO ME
00:40:48.060 --> 00:40:50.020
PSALM 78:41,
00:40:50.020 --> 00:40:50.290
THAT I HAD LIMITED HIM BY
00:40:50.290 --> 00:40:52.130
MY SMALL THINKING.
00:40:52.160 --> 00:40:55.160
AND SINCE THAT TIME, I HAVE
00:40:55.160 --> 00:40:57.230
SEEN, I MEAN, HUGE INCREASES.
00:40:57.230 --> 00:41:00.140
IT'S PHENOMENAL.
00:41:00.140 --> 00:41:01.120
OUR INCOME IN 2001, WAS, I
00:41:01.120 --> 00:41:03.270
THINK, LESS THAN $2 MILLION A
00:41:03.270 --> 00:41:06.170
YEAR, AND THIS LAST YEAR-- AND
00:41:06.170 --> 00:41:09.020
I'M ONLY SAYIN' THIS JUST TO
00:41:09.020 --> 00:41:10.030
SHOW YOU THAT THE WORD WORKS.
00:41:10.030 --> 00:41:11.270
THAT'S THE ONLY REASON.
00:41:11.270 --> 00:41:12.150
BUT OUR INCOME THIS LAST YEAR
00:41:12.150 --> 00:41:13.250
WAS OVER $63 MILLION, IN 15
00:41:13.250 --> 00:41:15.050
YEARS' TIME.
00:41:16.020 --> 00:41:19.020
AND THE DEAL WAS, I WASN'T OUT
00:41:19.020 --> 00:41:20.240
SINNING, I WASN'T REBELLING AT
00:41:20.240 --> 00:41:22.220
GOD, BUT I HAD FEAR.
00:41:22.220 --> 00:41:24.240
I HAD FEAR IN ME THAT I WOULDN'T
00:41:25.220 --> 00:41:28.220
SPEAK OUT WHAT GOD HAD PUT IN MY
00:41:28.220 --> 00:41:31.100
HEART BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID OF
00:41:31.100 --> 00:41:33.000
HOW PEOPLE WOULD TAKE IT, THAT
00:41:33.000 --> 00:41:34.120
THEY WOULD CRITICIZE ME AND SAY
00:41:34.120 --> 00:41:36.010
I'M BUILDING MY KINGDOM.
00:41:36.010 --> 00:41:38.210
AND BECAUSE OF THE FEAR OF OTHER
00:41:38.210 --> 00:41:40.160
PEOPLE, I WASN'T ACTIVATING THE
00:41:40.160 --> 00:41:42.170
BLESSING OF GOD AND BOLDLY
00:41:42.170 --> 00:41:43.290
SAYING WHAT GOD SAID.
00:41:43.290 --> 00:41:46.120
SO YOU CAN LIMIT GOD THROUGH
00:41:46.120 --> 00:41:47.210
SUBTLE WAYS LIKE THAT, THAT LOOK
00:41:47.210 --> 00:41:49.050
GOOD ON THE SURFACE.
00:41:49.050 --> 00:41:51.280
IT LOOKED LIKE I WAS TRYIN' TO
00:41:51.280 --> 00:41:52.190
BE HUMBLE, BUT ANYTIME GOD TELLS
00:41:52.190 --> 00:41:54.250
YOU SOMETHIN', AND YOU'RE AFRAID
00:41:54.250 --> 00:41:56.130
TO SAY IT BECAUSE OF PEOPLE'S
00:41:56.130 --> 00:41:58.060
REACTION, THAT'S NOT HUMBLE.
00:41:58.060 --> 00:41:59.200
THAT'S ACTUALLY PRIDE.
00:41:59.200 --> 00:42:01.290
- MATT: WOW.
00:42:01.290 --> 00:42:02.260
- ANDREW: YOU ARE PUTTING
00:42:02.260 --> 00:42:03.250
PEOPLE'S OPINION OF YOU AHEAD OF
00:42:03.250 --> 00:42:04.230
GOD'S OPINION.
00:42:04.230 --> 00:42:06.020
- MATT: WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
00:42:06.020 --> 00:42:06.240
ANDREW WOMMACK'S BROADCAST AIRS
00:42:10.080 --> 00:42:11.000
RIGHT HERE ON TRINITY
00:42:11.000 --> 00:42:12.020
BROADCASTING.
00:42:12.020 --> 00:42:13.210
I WANT YOU TO KNOW ABOUT THAT.
00:42:13.210 --> 00:42:14.130
HIS BOOK IS AVAILABLE BY GOING
00:42:14.130 --> 00:42:16.010
TO THAT 800 NUMBER ON THE
00:42:16.010 --> 00:42:17.060
SCREEN.
00:42:17.060 --> 00:42:18.260
WE'VE GOT A FEW MORE MINUTES
00:42:18.260 --> 00:42:21.150
LEFT IN THIS BROADCAST.
00:42:21.150 --> 00:42:22.290
YOU'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THIS
00:42:23.220 --> 00:42:26.220
MONUMENTAL SHIFT IN YOUR
00:42:26.220 --> 00:42:27.130
MINISTRY.
00:42:27.130 --> 00:42:29.120
NOW, CHARIS BIBLE COLLEGE IS UP
00:42:29.120 --> 00:42:31.070
IN THE COLORADO SPRINGS AREA.
00:42:31.120 --> 00:42:34.120
WE'VE GOT A LITTLE ROLL-IN
00:42:34.120 --> 00:42:36.190
THAT'LL SHOW YOU A LITTLE BIT
00:42:36.190 --> 00:42:37.100
MORE ABOUT WHAT ANDREW WOMMACK
00:42:37.100 --> 00:42:38.020
DOES.
00:42:38.020 --> 00:42:40.060
GIVE YOU THAT PROOF THAT, YOU
00:42:40.060 --> 00:42:40.270
KNOW, WHAT YOU'RE TALKIN' ABOUT
00:42:40.270 --> 00:42:41.190
WORKS.
00:42:41.190 --> 00:42:42.190
- ANDREW: THE WHOLE MOTIVE
00:42:48.250 --> 00:42:49.150
BEHIND CHARIS IS 2 TIMOTHY
00:42:49.150 --> 00:42:50.040
CHAPTER 2, VERSES 1 AND 2, WHERE
00:42:51.080 --> 00:42:54.080
PAUL SAID, "BE STRONG IN THE
00:42:54.080 --> 00:42:54.290
GRACE THAT'S IN THE LORD JESUS.
00:42:54.290 --> 00:42:56.040
AND THE THINGS THAT YOU HAVE
00:42:56.040 --> 00:42:57.000
HEARD OF ME AMONG MANY WITNESSES
00:42:57.000 --> 00:42:57.230
IS THE SAME COMMIT THOU TO
00:42:57.230 --> 00:43:00.150
FAITHFUL MEN AND WOMEN, WHO WILL
00:43:00.150 --> 00:43:01.080
THAT'S BEEN MY WHOLE THRUST, AND
00:43:05.030 --> 00:43:06.180
WHEN I STARTED CHARIS BIBLE
00:43:06.180 --> 00:43:07.260
COLLEGE, IT WAS BECAUSE I COULD
00:43:07.260 --> 00:43:08.180
SEE THAT IT WAS A WAY OF
00:43:08.180 --> 00:43:09.260
FULFILLING THOSE VERSES.
00:43:14.130 --> 00:43:17.130
THROUGH CHARIS, WE GO DEEPER
00:43:17.130 --> 00:43:18.040
WITH PEOPLE THAN I CAN DO
00:43:18.040 --> 00:43:18.230
ON TELEVISION OR THROUGH A BOOK
00:43:18.230 --> 00:43:19.150
OR THROUGH A CD OR ANYTHING LIKE
00:43:19.150 --> 00:43:20.080
THAT.
00:43:20.080 --> 00:43:20.240
AND SO WHAT WE HOPE TO
00:43:20.240 --> 00:43:21.250
ACCOMPLISH IS TO MAKE DISCIPLES,
00:43:21.250 --> 00:43:23.030
AND IT'S ALREADY HAPPENIN'.
00:43:23.030 --> 00:43:24.150
WE'VE GOT PEOPLE ON EVERY
00:43:24.150 --> 00:43:25.270
CONTINENT OF THE WORLD THAT ARE
00:43:25.270 --> 00:43:27.160
REACHING PEOPLE, AND THROUGH
00:43:27.160 --> 00:43:29.060
THEM, WE ARE MAKIN' AN IMPACT
00:43:29.060 --> 00:43:31.230
- MATT: ALL EVENING, WE HAVE
00:43:40.050 --> 00:43:42.130
BEEN WITH ANDREW WOMMACK.
00:43:42.130 --> 00:43:43.290
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT "LIVING IN
00:43:43.290 --> 00:43:44.250
ANDREWS'S BROADCAST AIRS RIGHT
00:43:48.000 --> 00:43:49.160
HERE, 6:30 IN THE MORNING ON THE
00:43:49.160 --> 00:43:50.140
EAST COAST.
00:43:50.140 --> 00:43:51.180
IF YOU'RE AN EARLY BIRD, GO AND
00:43:51.180 --> 00:43:52.100
PARTICIPATE WITH HIM MONDAY
00:43:52.180 --> 00:43:55.180
THROUGH FRIDAY, RIGHT HERE ON
00:43:55.180 --> 00:43:57.220
TBN, "GOSPEL TRUTH WITH
00:43:57.220 --> 00:43:59.080
ANDREW WOMMACK."
00:43:59.080 --> 00:44:02.060
WE ARE COMING DOWN TO NEAR THE
00:44:04.290 --> 00:44:05.200
END.
00:44:05.200 --> 00:44:07.150
I CERTAINLY UNDERSTAND WHERE
00:44:07.150 --> 00:44:09.280
YOU'RE COMING FROM, CERTAINLY
00:44:09.280 --> 00:44:11.200
FEEL LIKE YOU'VE LAID THIS OUT.
00:44:11.200 --> 00:44:14.190
YOU KNOW, SOME MINISTRIES TALK
00:44:14.190 --> 00:44:16.020
ABOUT PUTTIN' A LITTLE STICKY
00:44:16.020 --> 00:44:17.110
NOTE UP ON YOUR MIRROR AND DOIN'
00:44:17.110 --> 00:44:19.040
ALL THIS KIND OF STUFF TO KIND
00:44:19.040 --> 00:44:20.020
OF HELP US AND GET THAT
00:44:20.020 --> 00:44:21.140
ORIENTATION RIGHT IN THE
00:44:21.140 --> 00:44:23.040
MORNING, GET EVERYTHING GOIN' IN
00:44:23.040 --> 00:44:24.210
THE RIGHT WAY.
00:44:24.210 --> 00:44:26.170
VOICE-ACTIVATION FOR BLESSINGS
00:44:28.000 --> 00:44:31.000
ARE BETTER THAN LIVING FROM
00:44:31.000 --> 00:44:31.200
MIRACLE TO MIRACLE.
00:44:31.200 --> 00:44:33.120
THIS IS ALL SINKIN' IN.
00:44:33.120 --> 00:44:34.180
THAT'S THE SUBJECT, IN ESSENCE,
00:44:34.180 --> 00:44:36.110
OF THIS BOOK, "LIVING IN GOD'S
00:44:36.110 --> 00:44:37.070
BEST."
00:44:37.070 --> 00:44:38.060
SO WHY DON'T YOU HELP US GET
00:44:41.150 --> 00:44:42.050
KIND OF STARTED IN THIS, AND
00:44:42.050 --> 00:44:43.270
INSTEAD OF TALKIN' ABOUT IT,
00:44:43.270 --> 00:44:46.090
LET'S DO IT!
00:44:46.090 --> 00:44:48.130
- ANDREW: WELL, LET ME GIVE YOU
00:44:48.130 --> 00:44:49.050
ANOTHER TESTIMONY THAT, WHEN I
00:44:49.050 --> 00:44:51.060
WAS BUILDING UP TO THIS JANUARY
00:44:51.060 --> 00:44:52.120
THE 31ST, 2002, WHERE I HAD THIS
00:44:52.120 --> 00:44:54.200
ENCOUNTER AND GOD TOLD ME I HAD
00:44:54.200 --> 00:44:55.280
LIMITED HIM, IT TOOK 2 MONTHS
00:44:55.280 --> 00:44:57.180
FOR ME TO COME TO THAT
00:44:57.180 --> 00:44:58.140
CONCLUSION.
00:44:58.140 --> 00:45:00.180
AND SO I KNEW SOMETHIN' WAS
00:45:00.180 --> 00:45:02.050
HAPPENIN', AND I THINK THAT
00:45:02.050 --> 00:45:03.120
THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENIN' TO SOME
00:45:03.120 --> 00:45:04.100
OF THESE VIEWERS.
00:45:04.100 --> 00:45:05.010
MAYBE THEY'RE FEELIN' LIKE,
00:45:05.010 --> 00:45:06.110
"MAN, MAYBE THERE'S SOMETHIN'
00:45:06.110 --> 00:45:07.160
I'M MISSIN'."
00:45:07.160 --> 00:45:09.010
AND THIS IS WHERE I WAS,
00:45:09.010 --> 00:45:09.290
AND I WAS PRAYIN', "GOD,
00:45:09.290 --> 00:45:11.000
WHAT IS IT?
00:45:11.000 --> 00:45:12.210
WHAT'S HAPPENING?"
00:45:12.210 --> 00:45:13.260
AND I THINK THAT YOU HAVE TO GO
00:45:13.260 --> 00:45:15.100
THROUGH A PERIOD LIKE THAT.
00:45:15.100 --> 00:45:16.060
SOMETIMES IT'S NOT JUST AN
00:45:16.060 --> 00:45:17.070
INSTANTANEOUS THING.
00:45:17.070 --> 00:45:18.240
SO I MAY HAVE DONE NOTHIN' BUT
00:45:18.240 --> 00:45:20.270
PLANT A SEED WITH SOME PEOPLE
00:45:20.270 --> 00:45:22.220
TODAY, THAT MAYBE THERE'S
00:45:22.220 --> 00:45:23.270
SOMETHING MORE.
00:45:23.270 --> 00:45:25.140
SO WHAT YOU NEED TO DO, YOU NEED
00:45:25.140 --> 00:45:26.110
TO START WATERING THAT SEED, AND
00:45:26.110 --> 00:45:27.240
YOU NEED TO START, JUST,
00:45:27.240 --> 00:45:29.170
APPROACHING THE LORD AND SAY,
00:45:29.170 --> 00:45:31.030
"GOD, AND IS THERE MORE THAT YOU
00:45:31.030 --> 00:45:33.220
HAVE FOR MY LIFE THAN WHAT I'M
00:45:33.220 --> 00:45:34.180
EXPERIENCIN'?"
00:45:34.180 --> 00:45:36.160
AND IF YOU WILL OPEN YOURSELF
00:45:36.160 --> 00:45:37.130
UP, I CAN GUARANTEE YOU, GOD
00:45:37.130 --> 00:45:39.110
WANTS TO DO HIS WILL IN YOUR
00:45:39.110 --> 00:45:42.000
LIFE MORE THAN YOU WANT HIM TO
00:45:42.000 --> 00:45:42.280
DO IT.
00:45:42.280 --> 00:45:44.130
I BELIEVE THAT WITH ALL OF MY
00:45:44.130 --> 00:45:45.060
HEART.
00:45:45.060 --> 00:45:46.240
SO THE FIRST STEP IS JUST
00:45:46.240 --> 00:45:47.200
HUMBLING YOURSELF.
00:45:47.200 --> 00:45:48.100
IT SAYS IN EPHESIANS-- OR EXCUSE
00:45:48.100 --> 00:45:49.250
YOU "RECEIVE WITH MEEKNESS THE
00:45:52.140 --> 00:45:53.130
ENGRAFTED WORD, WHICH IS ABLE TO
00:45:53.130 --> 00:45:54.100
SAVE YOUR SOULS."
00:45:54.100 --> 00:45:55.060
SO THE FIRST STEP IS YOU
00:45:55.060 --> 00:45:56.280
JUST HAVE TO HUMBLE YOURSELF
00:45:56.280 --> 00:45:58.150
AND, "FATHER, IS THIS TRUE?
00:45:58.150 --> 00:45:59.110
I RECEIVE IT."
00:45:59.110 --> 00:46:01.130
AND THEN, IF YOU BEGIN TO START
00:46:01.130 --> 00:46:03.080
SEEKIN' IT, YOU KNOW, A
00:46:03.080 --> 00:46:03.260
SCRIPTURE THAT IS OFTEN QUOTED,
00:46:03.260 --> 00:46:04.240
JEREMIAH 29:11,
00:46:04.240 --> 00:46:05.290
"'I KNOW THE THOUGHTS THAT
00:46:05.290 --> 00:46:07.280
I THINK TOWARDS YOU,'
00:46:07.280 --> 00:46:09.120
SAYS THE LORD,
00:46:09.120 --> 00:46:09.280
'THE THOUGHTS OF PEACE AND NOT
00:46:10.060 --> 00:46:13.060
OF EVIL, TO GIVE YOU AN EXPECTED
00:46:13.060 --> 00:46:15.050
END,'" OR NIV SAYS, "A HOPE AND
00:46:15.050 --> 00:46:15.270
A FUTURE."
00:46:15.270 --> 00:46:16.230
AND PEOPLE STOP RIGHT THERE,
00:46:16.230 --> 00:46:17.250
BUT THE NEXT VERSE SAYS,
00:46:17.250 --> 00:46:18.180
"AND YOU SHALL SEEK ME, AND YOU
00:46:18.180 --> 00:46:19.120
SHALL FIND ME WHEN YOU SHALL
00:46:19.120 --> 00:46:20.230
SEARCH WITH ALL OF YOUR HEART."
00:46:20.230 --> 00:46:22.110
ANOTHER THING I SAY IS, IS IF
00:46:22.110 --> 00:46:23.220
YOU CAN LIVE WITHOUT GOD'S BEST,
00:46:23.220 --> 00:46:25.270
YOU WILL, BUT WHEN YOU GET TO A
00:46:25.270 --> 00:46:28.260
PLACE WHERE "I'M SICK AND TIRED
00:46:28.260 --> 00:46:29.270
OF BEIN' SICK AND TIRED, AND I'M
00:46:29.270 --> 00:46:31.120
GONNA PURSUE THIS, 'IF YOU SEEK,
00:46:31.120 --> 00:46:33.220
YOU FIND; IF YOU KNOCK, IT'S
00:46:33.220 --> 00:46:34.250
OPEN UNTO YOU.'"
00:46:34.250 --> 00:46:36.050
SO FIRST OF ALL,
00:46:36.050 --> 00:46:37.050
YOU RECEIVE THE SEED, YOU
00:46:37.050 --> 00:46:38.110
HUMBLE YOURSELF, THEN YOU START
00:46:38.110 --> 00:46:39.190
SEEKING GOD: "GOD, I WANT YOUR
00:46:39.190 --> 00:46:40.280
BEST."
00:46:40.280 --> 00:46:42.280
AND IF YOU WILL DO THAT,
00:46:42.280 --> 00:46:45.030
GOD WILL SUPERNATURALLY JUST
00:46:45.030 --> 00:46:46.180
REVEAL TO PEOPLE AN AREA OF
00:46:46.180 --> 00:46:49.120
THEIR LIFE WHERE THEY ARE
00:46:49.120 --> 00:46:51.140
LIMITING GOD OR ANOTHER AREA
00:46:51.140 --> 00:46:53.140
WHERE MAYBE THEY HAVEN'T EVEN
00:46:53.140 --> 00:46:54.160
EXPRESSED THEMSELF.
00:46:54.170 --> 00:46:57.170
THEY HAVEN'T STRETCHED THEMSELF
00:46:57.170 --> 00:46:58.090
IN THIS AREA, AND THEY NEED TO
00:46:58.090 --> 00:46:59.120
START PURSUIN' IT, AND YOU'RE
00:46:59.120 --> 00:47:00.240
GONNA HAVE TO GET UP AND DO
00:47:00.240 --> 00:47:01.260
SOMETHIN'.
00:47:01.260 --> 00:47:03.280
AND ONE OF THE THINGS, MATT,
00:47:03.280 --> 00:47:05.030
WITH ME, THAT WAS A REAL
00:47:05.030 --> 00:47:06.220
HINDRANCE-- AND THIS IS GONNA
00:47:06.220 --> 00:47:07.170
SOUND WEIRD TO MOST PEOPLE-- BUT
00:47:07.170 --> 00:47:09.190
I HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE
00:47:09.190 --> 00:47:12.160
LORD THAT, TO ME, IS THE MOST
00:47:12.160 --> 00:47:13.290
IMPORTANT THING IN MY LIFE, AND
00:47:13.290 --> 00:47:15.150
I'VE SEEN A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT,
00:47:15.150 --> 00:47:17.120
WHEN THEY GET WELL KNOWN, THEY
00:47:17.120 --> 00:47:18.270
LOSE THAT RELATIONSHIP WITH THE
00:47:18.270 --> 00:47:20.200
LORD.
00:47:20.200 --> 00:47:21.280
THEY GET CAUGHT UP IN READIN'
00:47:21.280 --> 00:47:23.170
THEIR OWN PRESS RELEASES.
00:47:23.170 --> 00:47:24.070
AND I THOUGHT THAT, IF GOD
00:47:24.070 --> 00:47:26.260
REALLY GREW ME, THAT I MIGHT
00:47:26.260 --> 00:47:28.130
LOSE MY RELATIONSHIP WITH THE
00:47:28.130 --> 00:47:29.270
LORD, AND I'D RATHER HAVE STAYED
00:47:29.270 --> 00:47:30.210
SMALL.
00:47:30.210 --> 00:47:32.070
- MATT: WOW.
00:47:32.070 --> 00:47:33.200
- ANDREW: AND THAT WAS A FEAR
00:47:33.200 --> 00:47:34.120
WITH ME THAT I WAS GONNA GET
00:47:34.120 --> 00:47:35.260
INTO PRIDE, AND THEN I WAS GONNA
00:47:35.260 --> 00:47:36.190
START DOIN' SOMETHIN'.
00:47:36.190 --> 00:47:38.100
AND, FINALLY, THAT'S ONE OF THE
00:47:38.100 --> 00:47:39.230
MAIN THINGS THAT THE LORD HAD TO
00:47:39.230 --> 00:47:40.250
DEAL WITH ME, AND HE USED
00:47:40.250 --> 00:47:42.020
NUMBERS CHAPTER 13, WHERE MOSES
00:47:42.220 --> 00:47:45.220
SAID THAT HE WAS THE MEEKEST MAN
00:47:45.220 --> 00:47:48.020
ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH, AND
00:47:48.020 --> 00:47:49.200
MOSES IS THE GUY THAT WROTE
00:47:49.200 --> 00:47:50.240
THAT.
00:47:50.240 --> 00:47:52.090
- MATT: WOW.
00:47:52.090 --> 00:47:53.080
- ANDREW: IT WAS HUMILITY FOR
00:47:53.080 --> 00:47:54.060
HIM TO SAY ABOUT HIMSELF WHAT
00:47:54.060 --> 00:47:55.170
GOD SAID, AND I HAD TO GET PAST
00:47:55.170 --> 00:47:57.140
MY OPINION OF WHAT PEOPLE
00:47:57.140 --> 00:47:59.270
THOUGHT ABOUT ME AND STUFF LIKE
00:47:59.270 --> 00:48:02.030
THAT, AND I ACTUALLY HAD TO
00:48:02.030 --> 00:48:03.210
HUMBLE MYSELF TO BE ABLE TO
00:48:03.210 --> 00:48:05.040
RECEIVE THE BLESSING OF GOD.
00:48:05.040 --> 00:48:07.100
AND IT COULD BE DIFFERENT FOR
00:48:07.100 --> 00:48:08.010
OUR VIEWERS.
00:48:08.010 --> 00:48:08.220
IT COULD BE, YOU KNOW, DIFFERENT
00:48:08.220 --> 00:48:10.060
FOR EACH PERSON.
00:48:10.060 --> 00:48:12.190
BUT I'M JUST CONVINCED THAT, IF
00:48:12.190 --> 00:48:13.110
YOU WILL HUMBLE YOURSELF AND
00:48:13.110 --> 00:48:14.090
SAY, "FATHER, I KNOW I'M LIVING
00:48:14.090 --> 00:48:15.090
BELOW THE PRIVILEGES," THEN YOU
00:48:15.090 --> 00:48:16.210
START SEEKING HIM: YOU SEEK; YOU
00:48:16.210 --> 00:48:18.060
FIND.
00:48:18.060 --> 00:48:20.180
AND GOD WILL GIVE SPECIFIC
00:48:20.180 --> 00:48:22.060
DIRECTION TO EACH ONE OF THEM
00:48:22.060 --> 00:48:23.190
ABOUT WHAT THEIR PURPOSE IS.
00:48:23.190 --> 00:48:25.160
- MATT: WHAT'S ONE SCRIPTURE
00:48:25.160 --> 00:48:26.280
BLESSING THAT YOU NEVER AVOID
00:48:27.110 --> 00:48:30.110
THAT-- ONE OF YOUR FAVORITES,
00:48:30.110 --> 00:48:32.040
ONE OF THE ONES THAT YOU, FOR
00:48:32.040 --> 00:48:33.040
SURE, HIT?
00:48:33.040 --> 00:48:35.030
- ANDREW: I WOULD SAY THAT ONE
00:48:35.030 --> 00:48:36.030
OF THE STRONG POINTS IN MY LIFE
00:48:36.030 --> 00:48:37.030
IS HEALING.
00:48:37.030 --> 00:48:38.080
I DON'T KNOW WHY, BUT WHEN I
00:48:38.080 --> 00:48:39.110
FIRST GOT TURNED ON TO THE LORD,
00:48:39.110 --> 00:48:40.240
I JUST STARTED BELIEVING GOD,
00:48:40.240 --> 00:48:41.150
AND, I MEAN, IT HAS BEEN
00:48:41.150 --> 00:48:43.050
BASICALLY 46 YEARS SINCE I'VE
00:48:43.050 --> 00:48:45.270
BEEN SICK.
00:48:45.270 --> 00:48:47.050
I DON'T GET SICK.
00:48:47.050 --> 00:48:48.170
I DON'T BELIEVE IN BEIN' SICK.
00:48:48.170 --> 00:48:49.090
I CAN BE AROUND PEOPLE WHO ARE
00:48:49.090 --> 00:48:50.290
SICK, AND EVERYBODY ELSE WOULD
00:48:50.290 --> 00:48:52.040
BE SICK, AND I WON'T.
00:48:52.040 --> 00:48:53.220
I DON'T GET SICK BECAUSE I
00:48:53.220 --> 00:48:56.020
BELIEVE THAT THAT'S PART OF
00:48:56.020 --> 00:48:57.050
GOD'S HEALING.
00:48:57.050 --> 00:48:58.290
AND OVER THE LAST DECADE, I'VE
00:48:58.290 --> 00:48:59.290
COME TO START BELIEVIN' IN
00:48:59.290 --> 00:49:01.110
PROSPERITY AND REALLY TRUSTING
00:49:01.110 --> 00:49:03.010
IN THAT, AND I'VE SEEN GOD
00:49:03.010 --> 00:49:04.060
REALLY PROSPER US AND DO SOME
00:49:04.060 --> 00:49:05.190
THINGS.
00:49:05.190 --> 00:49:07.200
AND SO, YOU KNOW, IT JUST
00:49:07.200 --> 00:49:08.110
DEPENDS WHERE A PERSON IS.
00:49:08.110 --> 00:49:09.160
THEY MIGHT NEED A MARRIAGE TO BE
00:49:09.160 --> 00:49:11.070
RESTORED, AND THERE ARE
00:49:11.070 --> 00:49:13.250
SCRIPTURES IN HERE ABOUT HOW GOD
00:49:13.250 --> 00:49:14.250
WILL BLESS YOUR MARRIAGE.
00:49:14.250 --> 00:49:15.270
THERE MAY BE PEOPLE THAT
00:49:15.270 --> 00:49:16.270
CHILDREN, AND THEY'RE UNABLE TO
00:49:16.270 --> 00:49:18.240
HAVE CHILDREN.
00:49:18.240 --> 00:49:19.170
THERE ARE SPECIFIC SCRIPTURES.
00:49:19.170 --> 00:49:21.080
DEUTERONOMY CHAPTER 7 AND 28,
00:49:21.080 --> 00:49:22.260
AND OTHER PLACES, THAT THERE
00:49:22.260 --> 00:49:24.110
WILL NOT BE A SINGLE PERSON
00:49:24.110 --> 00:49:26.200
BARREN OR A SINGLE ONE THAT CAST
00:49:26.200 --> 00:49:28.010
THEIR YOUNG, TALKIN' ABOUT A
00:49:28.010 --> 00:49:29.110
MISCARRIAGE.
00:49:29.110 --> 00:49:31.020
YOU'VE GOT PROMISES IN HERE OVER
00:49:31.020 --> 00:49:32.200
YOUR ANIMALS, YOUR DOGS, YOUR
00:49:32.200 --> 00:49:33.190
CATS.
00:49:33.190 --> 00:49:35.220
THIS BOOK IS NOTHING BUT THE
00:49:35.220 --> 00:49:38.070
BLESSING OF GOD THAT HAS BEEN
00:49:38.070 --> 00:49:40.160
SPOKEN OVER US, AND ALL YOU GOT
00:49:40.160 --> 00:49:41.220
TO DO IS JUST TAKE IT AND BEGIN
00:49:41.220 --> 00:49:43.240
TO START ACTIVATING THESE BY
00:49:43.240 --> 00:49:45.120
BELIEVING IT AND SPEAKING IT OUT
00:49:45.120 --> 00:49:47.000
YOUR MOUTH, AND IT'LL COME TO
00:49:47.000 --> 00:49:48.180
PASS.
00:49:48.180 --> 00:49:49.170
- MATT: SO YOU BELIEVE YOUR
00:49:49.170 --> 00:49:50.190
JOB, ANDREW, IS TO MAKE SURE
00:49:50.190 --> 00:49:53.180
THIS BOOK DOES WHAT?
00:49:53.230 --> 00:49:56.230
WHEN THEY ORDER THIS BOOK, THEY
00:49:56.230 --> 00:49:58.280
WHAT WAS YOUR INTENT FOR THE
00:50:01.290 --> 00:50:02.240
READER OF THIS BOOK?
00:50:02.240 --> 00:50:05.020
- ANDREW: WELL, IT'S, AGAIN,
00:50:05.020 --> 00:50:05.230
TWOFOLD BECAUSE I THINK THAT
00:50:05.230 --> 00:50:06.250
MOST PEOPLE ARE CONTENT WITH
00:50:06.250 --> 00:50:08.080
BEIN' JUST LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE.
00:50:08.080 --> 00:50:10.020
THEY LOOK AROUND, AND "I'M NOT
00:50:10.020 --> 00:50:10.280
ANY WORSE OFF THAN EVERYBODY
00:50:10.280 --> 00:50:12.150
ELSE.
00:50:12.150 --> 00:50:13.220
I'M MISERABLE, BUT I'M NOT ANY
00:50:13.220 --> 00:50:14.280
MORE MISERABLE THAN EVERYBODY
00:50:14.280 --> 00:50:15.290
ELSE."
00:50:15.290 --> 00:50:16.170
SO THE FIRST THING, I REALLY
00:50:16.170 --> 00:50:18.130
WANNA STIR PEOPLE UP AND
00:50:18.130 --> 00:50:20.010
GET PEOPLE DISSATISFIED WITH
00:50:20.010 --> 00:50:21.170
BEIN' LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE.
00:50:21.170 --> 00:50:23.060
THEY'VE GOT TO WANT GOD'S BEST
00:50:23.160 --> 00:50:26.160
INSTEAD OF JUST TAKING THE NORM,
00:50:26.160 --> 00:50:28.180
SO THAT'S THE FIRST POINT.
00:50:28.180 --> 00:50:30.090
AND THEN THE SECOND POINT IS TO
00:50:30.090 --> 00:50:32.000
GET THEM BEYOND LIVING FROM
00:50:32.000 --> 00:50:33.130
CRISIS TO CRISIS AND ALWAYS
00:50:33.130 --> 00:50:35.010
VIOLATING THE INSTRUCTIONS OF
00:50:35.010 --> 00:50:36.280
GOD'S WORD AND NATURAL LAW AND
00:50:36.280 --> 00:50:38.140
WINDING UP IN A DESPERATE
00:50:38.140 --> 00:50:40.080
SITUATION AND THEN TURNING TO
00:50:40.080 --> 00:50:42.040
GOD, TRYING TO GET OUT OF IT;
00:50:42.040 --> 00:50:43.120
AND, INSTEAD, LEARN TO START
00:50:43.260 --> 00:50:46.260
COOPERATING SO THAT YOU DON'T
00:50:46.260 --> 00:50:48.020
EVEN GET INTO THESE CRISIS
00:50:48.020 --> 00:50:48.230
SITUATIONS.
00:50:48.230 --> 00:50:49.290
SO THAT'S REALLY THE INTENT OF
00:50:49.290 --> 00:50:51.000
THE BOOK IS TO STIR PEOPLE UP,
00:50:51.000 --> 00:50:52.160
AND THEN FOR THOSE WHO ARE
00:50:52.160 --> 00:50:53.250
LOOKING FOR MORE, TEACH THEM HOW
00:50:53.250 --> 00:50:55.010
TO COOPERATE WITH THE BLESSING
00:50:55.010 --> 00:50:56.280
THEY'RE GIVEN.
00:50:56.280 --> 00:50:59.060
- MATT: AND WHAT YOU'RE WANTING
00:50:59.060 --> 00:51:00.170
US TO COOPERATE IS OPEN THE
00:51:00.170 --> 00:51:01.270
WORD, FIND THE SITUATION THAT
00:51:01.270 --> 00:51:03.110
YOU NEED SOMETHING, AND THEN
00:51:03.110 --> 00:51:05.000
START SPEAKING IT AND BELIEVING
00:51:05.000 --> 00:51:07.010
THAT, IF IT'S IN THAT WORD,
00:51:07.010 --> 00:51:08.280
COMMANDED, I CAN HAVE THAT
00:51:08.280 --> 00:51:11.220
COMMANDED BLESSING IN MY LIFE.
00:51:11.220 --> 00:51:13.110
- ANDREW: THAT'S TRUE, BUT IT
00:51:13.110 --> 00:51:14.040
HAS TO BE SOMETHING YOU REALLY,
00:51:14.040 --> 00:51:15.210
REALLY BELIEVE.
00:51:15.210 --> 00:51:17.270
EVERYTHING YOU SAID IS TRUE, BUT
00:51:17.270 --> 00:51:19.120
THERE ARE PEOPLE THAT WILL SIT
00:51:19.120 --> 00:51:20.120
HERE AND TAKE WHAT I'VE SAID,
00:51:20.120 --> 00:51:21.160
AND THEY WILL JUST START
00:51:21.160 --> 00:51:22.290
PARROTING IT AND CONFESSIN' IT.
00:51:22.290 --> 00:51:25.260
YOU KNOW, I'M SURE YOU'VE SEEN
00:51:25.260 --> 00:51:26.260
PEOPLE THAT HAVE CONFESSION
00:51:26.260 --> 00:51:27.200
CARDS, AND THEY JUST GO THROUGH,
00:51:27.200 --> 00:51:30.180
AND THEY SAY THESE THINGS, BUT
00:51:30.180 --> 00:51:31.090
THEY DON'T BELIEVE A BLOOMIN'
00:51:31.090 --> 00:51:32.150
THING THEY'RE SAYIN', AND IT
00:51:32.150 --> 00:51:33.140
DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY.
00:51:33.140 --> 00:51:35.120
YOU'VE GOT TO REALLY BELIEVE IT,
00:51:35.120 --> 00:51:36.260
BUT IF YOU BELIEVE IT, THEN YOU
00:51:36.260 --> 00:51:37.190
START SPEAKIN' IT FORTH.
00:51:37.190 --> 00:51:39.210
- MATT: IF SOMEBODY IS NOW
00:51:39.210 --> 00:51:40.170
"WONDERING IF I REALLY DO
00:51:40.170 --> 00:51:42.100
BELIEVE," 'CAUSE, YOU KNOW, THAT
00:51:42.100 --> 00:51:44.070
MIGHT'VE CAST A MOMENT OF DOUBT
00:51:45.080 --> 00:51:48.080
IN THEIR MIND, "OH, JEEZ, MAN,
00:51:48.080 --> 00:51:49.060
WHAT?
00:51:49.060 --> 00:51:50.070
DO I REALLY BELIEVE IT?
00:51:50.070 --> 00:51:51.140
DO I REALLY BELIEVE?"
00:51:51.140 --> 00:51:53.120
HOW DO YOU HELP THAT?
00:51:53.120 --> 00:51:55.050
- ANDREW: WELL, "FAITH COMES BY
00:51:55.050 --> 00:51:55.280
HEARING, AND HEARING BY THE WORD
00:51:55.280 --> 00:51:56.200
OF GOD."
00:51:56.200 --> 00:51:59.030
AND SO IF YOU FEEL LIKE,
00:51:59.030 --> 00:51:59.220
"I DON'T REALLY BELIEVE THIS,
00:51:59.220 --> 00:52:00.150
WELL, THEN START SPEAKIN' IT,
00:52:03.180 --> 00:52:04.090
AND FAITH WILL COME AS
00:52:04.090 --> 00:52:04.270
YOU HEAR IT.
00:52:04.270 --> 00:52:05.270
AND IF YOU SAY IT OVER AND OVER
00:52:05.270 --> 00:52:06.240
AND OVER ENOUGH, AND IF YOUR
00:52:06.240 --> 00:52:07.230
HEART IS PURE, YOU'LL GET TO
00:52:07.230 --> 00:52:08.130
WHERE YOU REALLY START BELIEVIN'
00:52:08.130 --> 00:52:09.130
IT.
00:52:09.130 --> 00:52:10.140
- MATT: "I WANNA BELIEVE.
00:52:10.140 --> 00:52:11.030
I WANNA BELIEVE."
00:52:11.030 --> 00:52:13.100
I MEAN, WHAT WOULD BE THE
00:52:13.100 --> 00:52:14.050
WORDS THAT YOU--
00:52:14.050 --> 00:52:15.200
- ANDREW: HOPE IS THE FIRST
00:52:15.200 --> 00:52:16.100
STEP OF FAITH.
00:52:16.100 --> 00:52:17.210
IT SAYS, "FAITH IS THE SUBSTANCE
00:52:17.210 --> 00:52:19.120
AND SO HOPE IS A FIRST STEP, AND
00:52:22.190 --> 00:52:24.030
A PERSON MIGHT SAY, "I'M NOT TO
00:52:24.030 --> 00:52:25.040
THE PLACE THAT ANDREW'S TALKIN'
00:52:25.040 --> 00:52:25.260
ABOUT OR MATT OR LAURIE, BUT I
00:52:25.260 --> 00:52:27.050
WANT TO BE THERE.
00:52:27.050 --> 00:52:29.040
SO, FATHER, I'M GONNA START
00:52:29.040 --> 00:52:30.180
SAYIN' THAT I'M BLESSED.
00:52:30.180 --> 00:52:31.230
I'M GONNA START SAYIN' THAT
00:52:31.230 --> 00:52:32.210
EVERYTHING I SET MY HAND UNTO IS
00:52:32.210 --> 00:52:34.190
AND YOU START SAYIN' IT, AND
00:52:37.190 --> 00:52:39.160
JUST BE HONEST WITH GOD, AND YOU
00:52:39.160 --> 00:52:40.230
WILL CROSS A THRESHOLD SOMEDAY
00:52:40.230 --> 00:52:42.250
THAT YOU, ALL OF A SUDDEN, "I
00:52:42.250 --> 00:52:45.170
REALLY DO BELIEVE THIS!"
00:52:45.170 --> 00:52:46.130
- LAURIE: RIGHT.
00:52:46.130 --> 00:52:47.010
- ANDREW: YOU KNOW, CREFLO
00:52:47.010 --> 00:52:47.290
DOLLAR WAS TELLIN' ME NOT LONG
00:52:47.290 --> 00:52:48.210
AGO THAT HE HAD A GUY THAT WAS
00:52:48.210 --> 00:52:49.180
STRUGGLIN' WITH SMOKIN'.
00:52:49.180 --> 00:52:50.150
AND HE TOLD THIS GUY TO JUST SAY
00:52:50.190 --> 00:52:53.190
THAT EVERY TIME YOU LIGHT IT UP,
00:52:53.190 --> 00:52:55.010
THAT "I AM THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF
00:52:55.010 --> 00:52:56.090
GOD."
00:52:56.090 --> 00:52:57.220
AND HE SAYS, "BUT I'MMA BE
00:52:57.220 --> 00:52:58.120
SMOKIN'.
00:52:58.120 --> 00:53:00.130
HOW COULD I SIT HERE AND TALK
00:53:00.130 --> 00:53:01.060
ABOUT ME BEIN' RIGHTEOUS WHILE
00:53:01.060 --> 00:53:02.010
I'M SMOKIN'?"
00:53:02.010 --> 00:53:03.060
AND HE SAID, "JUST SAY IT."
00:53:03.060 --> 00:53:03.270
ANYWAY, THE GUY STARTED SAYIN'
00:53:03.270 --> 00:53:05.090
IT, AND I FORGET THE LENGTH OF
00:53:05.090 --> 00:53:07.230
TIME, BUT A MONTH OR TWO OR
00:53:07.230 --> 00:53:08.130
SOMETHIN' LIKE THAT, AND ONE
00:53:08.130 --> 00:53:09.090
TIME, HE, YOU KNOW, WENT THROUGH
00:53:09.090 --> 00:53:10.010
HIS DEAL, "I'M THE RIGHTEOUSNESS
00:53:10.010 --> 00:53:12.000
OF GOD," AND THEN HE LOOKED AT
00:53:12.000 --> 00:53:14.070
THAT CIGARETTE, AND HE SAID, "I
00:53:14.070 --> 00:53:15.120
AM THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD.
00:53:15.120 --> 00:53:16.030
WHY AM I DOIN' THIS?"
00:53:16.030 --> 00:53:16.210
AND HE JUST PUT IT DOWN, AND HE
00:53:16.210 --> 00:53:18.040
WAS DELIVERED FROM IT.
00:53:18.040 --> 00:53:20.050
- MATT: NOW, WAIT A SECOND.
00:53:20.050 --> 00:53:20.260
SMOKING'S A SIN?
00:53:20.260 --> 00:53:22.200
[LAUGHTER]
00:53:22.200 --> 00:53:24.120
- ANDREW: YOU DON'T GO TO HELL
00:53:24.120 --> 00:53:25.180
FOR SMOKIN', BUT YOU'LL SMELL
00:53:25.180 --> 00:53:26.250
LIKE YOU'VE BEEN THERE.
00:53:26.250 --> 00:53:28.110
[LAUGHTER]
00:53:28.110 --> 00:53:29.030
- MATT: OKAY, I DIDN'T KNOW
00:53:29.030 --> 00:53:29.240
SMOKING WAS A SIN.
00:53:29.240 --> 00:53:30.240
I HAVEN'T CONFESSED THAT ONE, SO
00:53:30.240 --> 00:53:31.170
I BETTER--
00:53:31.170 --> 00:53:32.110
[LAUGHTER]
00:53:32.110 --> 00:53:34.150
- LAURIE: OH, MY GOODNESS!
00:53:34.150 --> 00:53:35.110
- ANDREW: PEOPLE ARE GONNA
00:53:35.110 --> 00:53:36.010
TAKE YOU FOR SERIOUS.
00:53:36.010 --> 00:53:36.180
WATCH WHAT YOU SAY.
00:53:36.180 --> 00:53:37.210
- LAURIE: I KNOW!
00:53:37.210 --> 00:53:38.210
- MATT: DON'T!
00:53:38.210 --> 00:53:39.250
"LIVING IN GOD'S BEST,"
00:53:39.250 --> 00:53:40.290
AND, BY THE WAY, SMOKING'S A
00:53:43.210 --> 00:53:44.110
SIN.
00:53:44.110 --> 00:53:44.270
SO I WANT YOU TO KNOW, DON'T
00:53:44.270 --> 00:53:45.240
SETTLE FOR LESS, OKAY?
00:53:46.280 --> 00:53:49.280
THAT IS WHAT WE'RE TALKING
00:53:49.280 --> 00:53:50.190
ABOUT.
00:53:50.190 --> 00:53:51.250
COMMANDED BLESSING.
00:53:51.250 --> 00:53:52.220
YOU BELIEVE THIS.
00:53:52.220 --> 00:53:54.090
THIS ISN'T A JOKE TO YOU.
00:53:54.090 --> 00:53:54.280
- ANDREW: I BELIEVE IT, AND
00:53:54.280 --> 00:53:55.260
IT'S WORKIN'.
00:53:55.260 --> 00:53:56.160
- MATT: YOU KNOW, JUST LET ME
00:53:56.160 --> 00:53:59.030
GIVE YOU A LITTLE TESTIMONY
00:53:59.030 --> 00:54:00.220
THING.
00:54:00.220 --> 00:54:01.220
JUST BACK HERE IN THE GREEN
00:54:01.220 --> 00:54:02.120
ROOM, I LOOKED AT IT-- GIVE ME
00:54:02.160 --> 00:54:05.160
YOUR BIBLE FOR A SECOND.
00:54:05.160 --> 00:54:06.050
LET ME JUST HOLD YOUR BIBLE.
00:54:06.050 --> 00:54:07.080
I SAID--
00:54:07.080 --> 00:54:07.240
[LAUGHTER]
00:54:07.240 --> 00:54:08.200
- LAURIE: I KNOW, RIGHT?
00:54:08.200 --> 00:54:09.130
[LAUGHTER]
00:54:09.130 --> 00:54:10.050
- MATT: I SAID, LIKE, "OH, MY
00:54:10.050 --> 00:54:10.270
GOD--"
00:54:10.270 --> 00:54:11.100
- LAURIE: HE'S JUST READIN' HIS
00:54:11.100 --> 00:54:12.030
BIBLE!
00:54:12.030 --> 00:54:13.040
- MATT: THAT PRINT IS LIKE, YOU
00:54:13.040 --> 00:54:13.270
KNOW, 4-POINT PRINT, YOU KNOW?
00:54:14.090 --> 00:54:17.090
AND, ANDREW, YOU AND I HAVE
00:54:17.090 --> 00:54:17.290
SIMILAR COLORED HAIR, BUT YOU
00:54:17.290 --> 00:54:18.270
HAVE SLIGHTLY LESS THAN I DO
00:54:18.270 --> 00:54:20.180
BUT--
00:54:20.180 --> 00:54:21.160
[LAUGHTER]
00:54:21.160 --> 00:54:23.190
-- HOW OLD ARE YOU?
00:54:23.190 --> 00:54:24.050
- ANDREW: SIXTY-SEVEN.
00:54:24.050 --> 00:54:25.240
I'LL BE TURNIN' 68 IN APRIL.
00:54:25.240 --> 00:54:27.160
- MATT: OKAY, SO YOU ARE
00:54:27.160 --> 00:54:29.110
STRONG, HEALTHY, YOUTHFUL
00:54:29.110 --> 00:54:31.250
LOOKING, AND ALL OF THAT.
00:54:31.250 --> 00:54:33.230
NOW, I CAN READ THIS, BUT I WAS
00:54:33.230 --> 00:54:35.100
REALLY SURPRISED, AND I ASKED
00:54:35.100 --> 00:54:36.210
YOU IF YOU HAD CONTACT LENSES
00:54:36.210 --> 00:54:37.240
IN.
00:54:37.240 --> 00:54:38.270
- ANDREW: HMM-MM.
00:54:38.270 --> 00:54:39.250
- MATT: SO IF I CAME OVER AND
00:54:39.250 --> 00:54:40.190
SQUEEZED YOUR EYE, YOU WOULD
00:54:40.190 --> 00:54:41.120
HAVE NO--
00:54:41.120 --> 00:54:42.130
- ANDREW: I MIGHT YELL, BUT YOU
00:54:42.130 --> 00:54:43.050
COULDN'T GET A CONTACT!
00:54:43.050 --> 00:54:45.000
- MATT: I WOULDN'T GET A
00:54:45.000 --> 00:54:46.090
CONTACT LENS?
00:54:46.090 --> 00:54:48.180
SO, AND I SAID, "HOW IN THE
00:54:48.180 --> 00:54:50.090
WORLD, AT YOUR AGE, ARE YOU
00:54:50.090 --> 00:54:50.290
READING PRINT THAT SMALL?"
00:54:50.290 --> 00:54:51.210
YOU KNOW, MY MOM AND DAD
00:54:51.210 --> 00:54:53.200
WOULD'VE HAD GLASSES, YOU KNOW,
00:54:53.200 --> 00:54:55.160
A MAGNIFYING GLASS, AND DOIN'
00:54:55.160 --> 00:54:56.150
THIS, AND I KNOW SOMEONE ELSE
00:54:56.150 --> 00:54:57.250
THAT HAS A LITTLE BIT OF--
00:54:57.250 --> 00:54:59.280
[LAUGHTER]
00:54:59.280 --> 00:55:01.180
- LAURIE: I'M GONNA DO WHAT
00:55:01.180 --> 00:55:02.100
HE DOES!
00:55:02.100 --> 00:55:04.030
YOU NEED TO PRAY!
00:55:04.030 --> 00:55:04.180
- ANDREW: I CAN TELL YOU THAT
00:55:04.180 --> 00:55:05.120
THERE ARE TIMES THAT I HONESTLY
00:55:05.120 --> 00:55:06.040
CAN'T READ THAT, AND I'LL JUST
00:55:06.040 --> 00:55:06.270
SIT THERE AND SAY, "I'M BLESSED,
00:55:06.270 --> 00:55:07.240
AND IF MOSES WAS 120 YEARS OLD
00:55:07.240 --> 00:55:09.070
AND HIS EYESIGHT WASN'T DIMMED,
00:55:09.070 --> 00:55:12.040
THEN I CAN DO IT."
00:55:12.040 --> 00:55:13.210
- MATT: NOR HIS STRENGTH
00:55:13.210 --> 00:55:14.100
ABATED.
00:55:14.100 --> 00:55:15.020
- ANDREW: AND I JUST SPEAK TO
00:55:15.020 --> 00:55:16.020
IT, AND IT CLEARS UP!
00:55:16.020 --> 00:55:17.060
- MATT: COME ON, NOW!
00:55:17.060 --> 00:55:17.230
- LAURIE: PRAY FOR THE PEOPLE A
00:55:17.230 --> 00:55:18.150
COUPLE OF MINUTES.
00:55:18.150 --> 00:55:19.100
LET'S PRAY.
00:55:19.100 --> 00:55:19.250
- MATT: THEY WANT YOUR--
00:55:19.250 --> 00:55:21.020
- LAURIE: WE WANT YOU TO BE
00:55:21.020 --> 00:55:23.260
QUIET!
00:55:23.260 --> 00:55:24.180
WE WANNA HEAR THE PRAYER!
00:55:24.180 --> 00:55:25.230
[LAUGHTER]
00:55:25.230 --> 00:55:26.090
- MATT: NO, I KNOW.
00:55:26.090 --> 00:55:27.010
I KNOW, I KNOW.
00:55:27.010 --> 00:55:27.210
BUT THEY ARE PROBABLY BELIEVING
00:55:27.210 --> 00:55:29.200
YOU BELIEVE THIS, AND THEY'LL
00:55:29.200 --> 00:55:31.240
BELIEVE THAT YOU BELIEVE THIS,
00:55:31.240 --> 00:55:34.170
AND WHEN YOU PRAY FOR THEM-- WE
00:55:34.170 --> 00:55:35.290
WANNA RECEIVE NOW, ANDREW.
00:55:35.290 --> 00:55:38.230
THANK YOU FOR BEING--
00:55:38.230 --> 00:55:40.020
- ANDREW: WELL, FATHER, I DO
00:55:40.020 --> 00:55:40.230
BELIEVE THAT YOU HAVE BLESSED US
00:55:40.230 --> 00:55:42.130
WITH ALL SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS,
00:55:42.130 --> 00:55:44.000
THAT WE ARE BLESSED PHYSICALLY,
00:55:44.000 --> 00:55:46.090
FINANCIALLY, EMOTIONALLY, IN
00:55:46.090 --> 00:55:48.020
RELATIONSHIPS, IN EVERY SINGLE
00:55:48.020 --> 00:55:49.020
AREA.
00:55:49.020 --> 00:55:51.250
AND SO I JUST SPEAK THIS
00:55:51.250 --> 00:55:52.280
BLESSING OF GOD RIGHT NOW OVER
00:55:52.280 --> 00:55:54.200
PEOPLE THAT ARE WATCHIN'.
00:55:54.200 --> 00:55:55.150
I COMMAND BODIES TO BE HEALED.
00:55:55.150 --> 00:55:57.230
BY THE STRIPES OF JESUS, WE WERE
00:55:57.230 --> 00:55:59.040
HEALED.
00:55:59.040 --> 00:56:01.120
EYESIGHT, BE HEALED.
00:56:01.200 --> 00:56:04.200
ALL KINDS OF EMOTIONAL PROBLEMS,
00:56:04.200 --> 00:56:06.180
DEPRESSION AND DISCOURAGEMENT,
00:56:06.180 --> 00:56:08.010
WE COMMAND IT TO GO.
00:56:08.010 --> 00:56:09.020
WE ARE BLESSED WITH LOVE, JOY,
00:56:09.020 --> 00:56:10.290
PEACE, ALL OF THE FRUIT OF THE
00:56:10.290 --> 00:56:12.140
SPIRIT.
00:56:12.140 --> 00:56:14.170
FATHER, THANK YOU THAT ANYTHING
00:56:14.170 --> 00:56:16.090
WE SET OUR HANDS UNTO ARE
00:56:16.110 --> 00:56:19.110
BLESSED.
00:56:19.110 --> 00:56:20.250
AND SO FOR THOSE WHO ARE IN
00:56:20.250 --> 00:56:22.010
BUSINESS, FATHER, WE JUST THANK
00:56:22.010 --> 00:56:23.080
YOU THAT THESE BLESSINGS ARE
00:56:23.080 --> 00:56:25.240
COMIN' ON THEM, AND WE AGREE,
