00:01 The following program discusses sensitive issues
00:03 related to addictive behavior. 00:05 Parents are cautioned that some material 00:06 may be too candid for younger children. 00:14 Welcome back. 00:15 For anybody that is interested, you know, 00:17 the book that you're talking about, 00:19 the teaching you're talking about is 00:21 from your book "The Grace Pipeline." 00:24 It is amazing. 00:25 And if you really want to kind of walk through 00:27 how to tap into that there is, in this book, 00:31 a lot of direction on how to get into the scriptures, 00:34 how to really understand who God is 00:37 and what's grace is about and all those kind of things. 00:40 We have talked about your testimony 00:42 little bit about the teaching, 00:43 but you know I know there is 00:45 a lot to this teaching that you put together. 00:48 You wrote the book in like two months. 00:50 God just--I think that you got inspired 00:52 and just disappeared and came out with this book. 00:54 You know, He always does that for me. 00:56 I have to share this with you because 00:58 people used to tell me, oh, you ought to write a book, 01:00 you ought to write a book and I would always say 01:02 I will never write book unless it's for the glory of God. 01:05 And I remember when I wrote "Exalting His Word," 01:07 which is first book and I thought, wow. 01:10 You know, he reminded me at the last chapter, 01:14 that book was written in 17 days 01:17 and that was just sitting down 01:18 but I was so much into the word all the time 01:20 I didn't have to look up the scriptures. 01:21 They were just all there. Yeah. 01:23 And so I just give God all the glory for that. 01:26 But with this book, I had a 12 page outline, 01:32 a teaching that I did and usually, you know, 01:35 when I'm doing teaching I don't read. 01:36 I've just got a list of scriptures. 01:39 And so God really, He sat me down 01:42 and I took time off. 01:43 I took a leave of absence from 3ABN. 01:45 He sat me down and in 6 weeks, 7 weeks, 01:50 I started and I came out at the end 01:53 with this marvelous teaching 01:55 from the Lord that really ministers to me. 01:58 He taught me so much and it ministers to me. 02:00 So we have few, we have like couple of minutes. 02:04 What can you say to the viewer about this book? 02:08 What is that kind of one thing 02:11 you'd like us to walk away with it? 02:12 I want to share, let me share something 02:13 with you real quick because 02:15 I think one of my favorite sections, 02:17 this is a favorite teaching of mine that the Lord-- 02:20 I was trying to understand faith. 02:21 We use these words like righteousness and faith 02:24 and all those different words 02:25 that people are kind of like, what is it mean? 02:28 You know, surrender. 02:29 So I asked the Lord to teach me 02:33 how to have victorious faith. 02:36 And I'm just gonna give you the steps for a quick 02:38 and there is lots of scriptures to support it. 02:40 But step one is "trust." 02:42 We've got learn to trust the Lord. 02:43 That is the foundation and as we trust Him 02:46 with all of our heart 02:47 and not lean on our own understanding, 02:49 but on what the word says. 02:51 Step two is "hope." 02:53 And the Bible says that hope is the anchor of our soul. 02:56 And in the Greek the word hope isn't like, oh, I wish. 03:00 The word hope is eager expectation, 03:03 that you've got this. Amen. 03:04 Step three, is the title "deed" 03:06 knowing that when God promises 03:08 that faith is the assurance 03:10 it's the title deed that you can grab hold of. 03:13 Step four is that "speaking in the spirit of faith." 03:16 It's so important. 03:17 What you speak over your life is so important, 03:20 what you speak into your children's life. 03:22 If it doesn't line up in agreement with the word of God 03:25 you're speaking death into their life. 03:26 You're speaking spiritual death into their life. 03:29 Then step five is "actions of obedience." 03:32 And the Bible actually talks a lot about that 03:34 because faith without actions is what? 03:36 It's dead. 03:38 Step six is to have a "victorious attitude." 03:43 And in the Bible it says in Roman 5:17 03:45 "That those who receive abundance of grace 03:48 and righteousness of Jesus Christ will reign in life." 03:51 And the final thing is to "stand firm." 03:54 So the book is about learning 03:56 how to tap into God's grace pipeline. 03:58 I love that. 03:59 I just have to say it's been incredible having you on. 04:01 Thank you for jumping in. 04:03 Thank you for teaching us that 04:04 and for anybody that's going through recovery, 04:07 it's amazing to me what God as offered us. 04:10 I don't care if you're chemical or non-chemical 04:13 addiction, if you got pressure, 04:14 if you come through craziness 04:16 or drugs or alcohol, 04:18 God says I have the answer 04:19 and I will step in and change everything. 04:21 I will give you life and I love that. 04:25 I love that. 04:26 Until next week always remember 04:27 that God is crazy about you, me too. 04:30 And open the word, figure out what it says 04:32 and apply it to yourself. 04:34 Amen. Amen. |
