01:00 Hello and welcome to 3ABN Live.
01:02 We're right here in Southern Illinois 01:04 at 3ABN Headquarters, 01:06 and we're having camp meeting. 01:08 You're all having a good time? 01:09 Yeah. All right. 01:10 Everybody feeling the power 01:12 and the anointing of the Holy Spirit 01:13 this weekend, I sure have. 01:15 I praise God for that. 01:16 I'm thankful for all the people who are up front, 01:19 those who are singing and ministering, and teaching. 01:22 And I'm also thankful for all of you 01:23 who are volunteering, those who are helping, 01:25 and those who are donating, those are just here, 01:28 it's one kind of one big happy family. 01:30 You know, really, when you think about it, 01:32 something like this is very unusual. 01:34 Today, anywhere you go in the world, 01:36 there's bad news, isn't there? 01:38 But at camp meeting we've only had good news, 01:40 because we've kept focused on Jesus and that's good news. 01:43 There's victory in the name of Jesus, 01:45 the Lord gave me a song several years ago 01:47 says there's power in the name of Jesus, 01:50 there's victory in the blood of the Lamb, 01:52 there's healing in the name of Jesus, 01:53 my Master, my Savior, and Friend. 01:56 And I'm thankful today to have an opportunity 01:58 to be a Christian living in the closing moments 02:00 of earth's history. 02:02 And yes, Satan's out doing what he does, 02:04 but we don't have to worry about that. 02:06 He's a defeated foe, all we can realize 02:08 and have to understand is through Jesus, 02:11 He can give us victory over sin in our life, 02:13 can't He? 02:14 A lot of people say, 02:16 "Well, we don't want to talk about that, 02:17 that's not popular today." 02:18 But if God can't give us victory over sin, who can? 02:21 And if we don't have victory over sin, 02:23 how're we ever going to make it to heaven, right? 02:25 Now, we can't do it ourselves 02:27 but through His shed blood on the cross of Calvary 02:29 and as we submit and commit our lives to Him, 02:31 He can take us from where we were 02:33 to where we're going to be 02:35 and that's to rule and reign with Him forever and ever. 02:37 I don't know about you all, 02:38 but I'm a happy, excited camper today at the Camporee, right? 02:41 Our camp meeting's here and because, 02:44 not because of anything that I have to offer, 02:46 but what God has offered to us. 02:48 Once again, I want to thank our viewers 02:50 from around the world. 02:51 Thank you for joining us, as you do each and every day. 02:54 Once again, thank you for your love, 02:56 and your prayers, and financial support. 02:58 I want to thank our audience here today, 02:59 we kind of took up an offering we didn't so we left, 03:03 I think a little offering buckets. 03:04 Some people were holding them as y'all went out. 03:06 But some of you all during the day 03:08 have been handing different ones of us 03:10 that work here little envelopes and saying, 03:12 "Here the Lord's impressed me to give you this donation." 03:14 Thank you so much for that. 03:15 I appreciate it. 03:17 And I expect that God is going to do something big, 03:19 something mighty and something marvelous 03:21 and why do I expect that? 03:22 Because that's just what the business He's in, isn't it? 03:24 Doing great and mighty, and marvelous things. 03:27 I'd like to bring out Pastor John Lomacang. 03:29 He's going to be doing our theme song tonight 03:32 Victory in Jesus, 03:33 and then right after that we'll have Pastor CA Murray, 03:35 he's going to be doing an opening prayer for us. 03:39 Well, brethren, we've been chasing the devil away 03:41 all of camp meeting, let's continue. 03:43 Amen? 03:44 And those of you who are joining us, 03:46 either by satellite or by radio, television, 03:48 however, we're going to sing the song 03:50 and you can join us in singing 03:53 about the victory we have in Jesus. 03:57 The words should appear on the screen. 04:00 I heard an old, old story 04:04 How the Savior came from glory 04:07 How He gave His life on Calvary 04:11 To save a wretch like me 04:15 I heard about His groaning 04:19 Of His precious blood's atoning 04:22 Then I repented of my sin 04:26 And won the victory Chorus. 04:29 O victory in Jesus 04:33 My Savior, forever 04:37 He sought me and bought me 04:40 With His redeeming blood 04:44 He loved me ere I knew Him 04:48 And all my love is due Him 04:51 He plunged me to victory 04:55 Beneath the cleansing flood 04:59 I heard about His healing 05:02 Oh His cleansing pow'r revealing 05:06 How He made the lame to walk again 05:10 And caused the blind to see 05:13 And then I cried, "Dear Jesus 05:17 Come and heal my broken spirit" 05:21 And somehow Jesus came 05:23 And bro't to me the victory 05:28 O victory in Jesus 05:32 My Savior, forever 05:35 He sought me and bought me 05:39 With His redeeming blood 05:42 He loved me ere I knew Him 05:46 And all my love is due Him 05:50 He plunged me to victory 05:53 Beneath the cleansing flood 05:57 I heard about a mansion 06:00 He has built for me in glory 06:04 And I heard about the streets of gold 06:08 Beyond the crystal sea 06:09 Sounding good. 06:11 About the angels singing 06:15 And the old redemption story 06:18 And some sweet day I'll sing up there 06:22 The song of victory 06:26 O victory in Jesus 06:29 My Savior, forever 06:33 He sought me and bought me 06:36 With His redeeming blood 06:40 He loved me ere I knew Him 06:44 And all my love is due Him 06:47 He plunged me to victory Beneath... 06:51 One more time on the chorus, here we go, O victory... 06:54 O victory in Jesus 06:58 He's my Savior, forever 07:01 He sought me and bought me 07:05 With His redeeming blood 07:09 He loved me ere I knew Him 07:12 And all my love is due Him 07:16 He plunged me to victory 07:19 Beneath the cleansing flood 07:26 Amen. 07:27 Pastor CA, 07:29 come in and bring us before the Lord through prayer. 07:32 Shall we pray? 07:35 Heavenly Father, as we find ourselves 07:38 moving into the very last meeting 07:40 for this camp meeting, 07:42 we are so glad that we are not coming to the end 07:45 of Your love for us. 07:47 For truly Your love is without end 07:51 and the long after we have departed from this place, 07:54 we know that Your Spirit will attend us. 07:58 May we continue to feel the things that we felt 08:00 during these last several days, 08:02 may we feel Your presence and power, 08:04 may we know of a surety that Jesus is coming soon, 08:08 and may each day find us 08:10 walking in the footsteps of Jesus. 08:12 Now, Lord, bless this meeting in a very special way. 08:16 Bless the songs that shall be sung, 08:17 the music that shall be played, the word that shall be spoken. 08:23 Put us again in heavenly places for just a little while, 08:27 as we prepare to sit in heavenly places 08:29 with You throughout eternity. 08:31 We love You, Lord, we praise You 08:33 and thank You in Jesus' name. 08:35 Amen. 08:37 One of the voices that we've heard so many times 08:39 in these past several days in which he blesses 08:41 our heart every time he sings is Steve Darmody. 08:45 I'm told he's going to be traveling 08:47 quite a bit of ways, 08:49 when he leaves us going all the way to Poland 08:51 to lift up the name of Jesus in song. 08:54 But we've got him here just one more time 08:56 and we are very thankful for that. 08:58 Steve Darmody. 09:01 I've been so blessed to be here, haven't you? 09:05 The enthusiasm is high, the optimism is high. 09:09 It's just been a blessing to be so enriched to be here 09:13 and as I leave to go to Poland, 09:15 my fourth country to visit since February. 09:18 I'm so glad I was here first, 09:21 because there has been this enriching 09:23 and this filling. 09:25 Do you feel enriched in your life? 09:28 You know, I believe probably the greatest evil 09:33 in our culture and society 09:36 is our desire for wealth, for filthy lucre. 09:41 We look at that and we think 09:42 that might be the key to our happiness. 09:45 When all along Jesus is saying, "I own all that. 09:51 And the riches that I give you 09:54 are far beyond what the world deems 09:57 as value and valuable." 10:00 Dear friends, you'll do yourself a service 10:04 to think about how rich you are. 10:08 How rich I am 10:12 Since Jesus came my way 10:17 Redeemed my soul 10:20 And turned my night to day 10:24 How very rich 10:26 How very rich, I am 10:33 Such peace and joy 10:36 I never knew before 10:41 And countless blessings 10:44 From His boundless store 10:48 How very rich 10:50 How very rich, 10:53 I am 10:57 There's a greater glory 11:01 In a sunset 11:04 A brighter twinkle 11:08 In a star 11:12 There is much more music 11:15 In a rainbow 11:19 More music in a singing bird 11:25 By far 11:29 All things have changed 11:33 My eyes once blind can see 11:38 The whole wide world 11:41 Is now a symphony 11:46 And with all this 11:49 Heaven is my destiny 11:53 How rich I am 12:10 There's much more promise 12:14 In a rainbow 12:18 More music in a singing bird 12:24 By far 12:29 All things have changed 12:33 My eyes once blind can see 12:38 The whole wide world 12:43 Is now a symphony 12:47 And with all this 12:51 Heaven is my destiny 12:55 How rich I am 13:19 I believe one of the greatest evidence 13:22 that we were created in the image of God 13:26 is when we attempt the impossible, 13:30 when we venture to believe the impossible can be done. 13:35 I think about this pasture and the cornfield, 13:38 that first house, 13:40 the first headquarters for Three Angels Broadcasting, 13:44 when I think of the faith it took, 13:47 to stand forward, to move forward, 13:51 to make decisions, to venture forward 13:54 into a realm and into a ministry 13:57 that would reach the world as it has done. 14:01 I'm just amazed. 14:04 When I look at Jesus Himself, I think of a man 14:07 who looked at earth 14:09 and probably the smartest angels in heaven, 14:12 probably said, 14:13 "You know, you ought to just start all over, 14:18 because I've heard you, Jesus, 14:19 tell about Your arrival in Bethlehem. 14:23 And, you know, they're not even going to be ready for you. 14:27 No one but a few shepherds and a few wise men 14:30 are even going to be there. 14:32 I would just wipe them clean, start all over." 14:36 But Jesus, 14:39 He says, "No, fighting the unbeatable foe 14:45 to reach the unreachable star." 14:48 And, you know, when we look at one another, 14:50 and often we'll even look at our marriages, 14:53 and we might think it's unredeemable, 14:55 or we'll see a soul, a friend or maybe even a son or daughter 14:59 and we think they're unredeemable. 15:02 But prisons are filled with redeemable men and women. 15:07 When I go to ASI, I am brought to life, 15:11 just merely rubbing elbows with men and women 15:16 who have dared to dream the impossible 15:20 and to accomplish it by God's grace. 15:23 Dear friends, this ministry needs people who can dream 15:28 that impossible dream, 15:30 who will fight the unbeatable foe. 15:36 Will you be one of those dreamers? 15:50 To dream the impossible dream 15:56 To fight the unbeatable foe 16:02 To bear with unbearable sorrow 16:08 To run where the brave dare not go 16:14 To right the unrightable wrong 16:19 To be better far than you are 16:25 To try when your arms are too weary 16:31 To reach the unreachable star 16:36 This is my quest 16:38 To follow that star 16:42 No matter how hopeless 16:45 No matter how far 16:47 To fight for the right 16:50 Without question or pause 16:53 To be willing to march anywhere 16:56 For a Heavenly cause 16:59 And I know if I'll only be true 17:05 To this glorious quest 17:09 That my heart will lie peaceful and calm 17:14 When I'm laid to my rest 17:19 And the world will be better for this 17:25 That one Man, scorned and covered with scars 17:31 Still strove with His last ounce of courage 17:36 To reach the unreachable star 17:42 To reach the unreachable star 17:48 For you know it's impossibly high 17:54 To strive with your life striving upward 18:00 To reach 18:02 The unreachable star 18:28 It's such a pleasure 18:29 to be in ministry with other musicians 18:31 who have dedicated their lives to service. 18:34 Whether it's to sing in a nursing home, 18:36 in a state fair, at a church, at Walmart, 18:40 wherever God calls and Jennifer is an artist 18:43 with that kind of heart for ministry. 18:45 Please welcome Jennifer LaMountain. 18:55 For the beauty of the earth 19:02 For the glory of the skies 19:09 For the love which from our birth 19:16 Over and around us lies 19:23 Lord of all, to thee we raise 19:28 This our hymn 19:31 Of grateful praise 19:44 For the gift of thy dear son 19:50 For the hope of heaven at last 19:55 For the spirit's victory won 20:01 For the crown when life is past 20:05 Lord of all to thee we raise 20:11 This our hymn of grateful praise 20:23 This is my Father's world 20:29 And to my listening ears 20:35 All nature sings and round me rings 20:40 The music of the spheres 20:46 This is my Father's world 20:51 Oh, let me ne'er forget 20:55 That though the wrong 20:58 Seems oft so strong 21:03 God is our ruler yet 21:09 This is my Father's world 21:14 The battle is not done 21:20 Jesus who died shall be satisfied 21:29 And earth and heav'n be one 21:38 Amen! 22:05 I dreamed of a city called 22:11 Glory 22:14 It was so bright 22:18 And so fair 22:23 As I entered the gates I cried, 22:30 "Holy" 22:34 The angels welcomed me there 22:44 They carried me 22:47 From mansion to mansion 22:54 And oh the sights 22:58 I saw But then I said, 23:05 "I want to see Jesus 23:11 The One who died 23:17 For all" 23:21 I bowed on my knees and cried 23:26 "Holy, 23:31 Holy, 23:36 Holy, Holy" 23:39 I fell at His feet and sang, 23:45 "Glory 23:49 Glory to the 23:52 Son of God" 23:57 I sang glory to the 24:01 Son of God 24:10 And once again the scene was changed 24:14 New earth there seemed to be 24:17 I saw the Holy City 24:21 Beside the tideless sea 24:24 The light of God was on its streets 24:28 The gates were open wide 24:31 And all who would might enter 24:37 And no one was denied 24:42 No need of moon or stars by night 24:48 Nor the sun to shine by day 24:53 It was the New Jerusalem 24:58 That would not pass away 25:02 It was the New Jerusalem 25:08 That would not pass away 25:13 You can sing it. 25:14 Join us. 25:15 Jerusalem! 25:18 Jerusalem! 25:21 Sing for the night is o'er! 25:26 Hosanna in the highest! 25:32 Hosanna forevermore! 25:38 Hosanna in the highest! 25:47 Hosanna forevermore! 26:11 I get the chance to introduce someone 26:13 who's my five minute friend. 26:15 We get to talk five minutes here, 26:17 five minutes there and through the years, 26:19 I'm just learning that Tammy 26:21 is just such a sweet, sweet, wonderful person. 26:23 Please welcome Tammy Chance. 26:24 Thank you. 26:27 How many of you are thinking about home tonight? 26:32 I want to dedicate this to my husband. 26:34 This is his favorite song in all the world. 26:37 And it seems like every camp meeting 26:38 when I'm thinking what I should sing, 26:40 he says, "You got to think, say, Thinkin' About Home, 26:42 you got to sing that." 26:44 And I said, "The people are going to be 26:45 so sick of that." 26:47 But I've got a new track 26:49 and because we've made a CD here recently, 26:51 and so I said, well, you know what? 26:54 It meant so much to my husband, 26:55 and he had his own little touches 26:57 he want to put on that track with a harmonica and a banjo, 27:01 and to give the old man on a bench, 27:03 some real support. 27:05 So I'm going to go ahead if you'll bear with me 27:07 and sing that for you tonight. 27:23 A penny for your thoughts I said to the old man 27:30 As He sat there on the park bench 27:34 All alone 27:38 With silver hair, wrinkled brow 27:42 Eyes gleaming 27:45 He smiled and said I'm thinkin' 'bout my home 27:52 I sat down and we shared 27:55 Some laughs together 27:59 And the cinema of remembrance 28:03 It did roll 28:07 We talked about life's gains and its losses 28:14 But mostly we just talked about His home 28:21 He said I'm thinking 'bout home 28:25 Thinkin' 'bout going home 28:29 Dreamin' 'bout leaving here 28:32 Ready to be movin' on 28:37 It won't be long before the sun will set 28:41 And I'll be gone But until then 28:47 I'll be thinkin' 'bout home 28:51 I said, tell me old man 28:54 Where's your home, and what's it like 28:58 He said oh ain't nothin' round 29:02 Here that compares 29:06 You see a King had it built 29:10 And gave the deed to me 29:14 And all of God's family will be there 29:20 He said I'm thinking 'bout home 29:25 Thinkin' 'bout going home 29:28 Dreamin' 'bout leaving here 29:32 Ready to be movin' on 29:36 It won't be long before the sun will set 29:41 And I'll be gone But until then 29:47 I'll be thinkin' 'bout home 29:52 It won't be long before the sun will set 29:56 And I'll be gone But until then 30:02 I'll be thinkin' 'bout home 30:10 Thinkin' 'bout home 30:16 Thinkin' 'bout my home 30:32 I'd like to introduce 30:33 the very wonderfully talented lady. 30:36 Her name is Dona Klein. 30:38 How many of you know Dona Klein? 30:42 For those of you who know her, 30:44 she is a wonderful person and she is an organist, 30:48 and she's going to bless us with two songs, 30:50 Only a Boy Named David and Gentle Shepherd. 35:16 Boy, when I listened to Dona Klein, 35:18 so many thoughts come to my mind. 35:20 I think of Lawrence Welk years ago. 35:23 Anybody went back there? 35:25 She has... 35:27 What you do with two hands, I couldn't do it six. 35:30 And I'm looking at that and I'm thinking, 35:32 "How is she doing that?" 35:34 And all of a sudden, there's a chord shows up. 35:36 Let's give another hearty amen. 35:38 There's only one Dona Klein. 35:41 Thank you so much, Dona, for that wonderful blessing. 35:45 You know, we're talking about trials, and tribulations, 35:47 and challenges that come to us 35:49 and the Lord allows them to come 35:50 because He knows that after that, 35:53 as Maya Angelou once said, 35:54 and Oprah Winfrey talked about that, she says, 35:57 she asked Maya Angelou about trials 35:59 and Maya Angelou responded by saying, 36:02 "Whenever trials come your way, stop and say, 36:04 'God, thank you.' 36:07 Because what's ever on the other side 36:08 has to be a lot better." 36:11 And so the reason why God allows those trials to come 36:14 is because all things work together for good 36:17 to those who love God so in the midst of it all, 36:20 just simply trust His heart. 36:42 All things work for our good 36:49 Though sometimes we don't see 36:53 How they could 36:56 Struggles that break our hearts in two 37:03 Sometimes blind us to the truth 37:11 Our Father knows what's best for us 37:18 For His way is not our own 37:24 So when your pathway grows dim 37:28 And you just can't see Him 37:32 Remember you're never alone 37:43 God is too wise to be mistaken 37:48 Aren't you glad? 37:50 God is too good to be unkind 37:56 So when you don't understand 38:00 When you don't see His plan 38:04 And you can't trace His hand 38:06 Trust His Heart 38:24 He sees the master plan 38:31 And He holds your future in His hand 38:38 So don't live as those who have no hope 38:45 All our hope is found in Him 38:52 We see the present clearly 38:59 But He sees the first and the last 39:06 And like a tapestry He's weaving you and me 39:13 To someday be just like Him 39:24 God is too wise to be mistaken 39:31 And God is too good to be unkind 39:38 So when you don't understand 39:41 When you don't see His plan 39:45 And you can't trace His hand 39:48 Trust His Heart 39:53 He alone is faithful and true 40:00 He alone knows what is best for you 40:14 God is too wise to be mistaken 40:21 Is God is too good to be unkind 40:28 So when you don't understand 40:31 When you don't see God's plan 40:35 And you can't trace His hand 40:38 Trust His Heart 40:46 When we don't understand 40:49 When we don't see God's plan 40:55 And when I can't trace God's hand 41:00 I'll Trust His Heart 41:09 I'll Trust God's Heart 41:57 Down the Via Dolorosa 42:02 In Jerusalem that day 42:05 The soldiers tried to clear the narrow streets 42:13 But the crowd pressed into see 42:16 The man condemned to die on Calvary 42:27 He was bleeding from a beating 42:31 There were stripes upon His back 42:34 And He wore a crown of thorns upon his head 42:42 And He bore with every step 42:46 The scorn of those who cried out for his death 42:53 Down the Via Dolorosa 42:56 Called the way of suffering 43:00 Like a lamb came the Messiah, 43:04 Christ the King 43:08 But He chose to walk that road 43:11 Out of His love for you and me 43:19 Down the Via Dolorosa 43:23 All the way to Calvary 44:37 The blood that would cleanse the souls of all men 44:44 Made its way through the heart of Jerusalem 44:55 Down the Via Dolorosa 44:59 Called the way of suffering 45:03 Like a lamb came the Messiah, 45:06 Christ the King 45:10 But He chose to walk that road 45:14 Out of His love for you and me 45:21 Down the Via Dolorosa, 45:25 All the way to Calvary 46:19 The blood that Jesus 46:24 Shed for me 46:29 Way back on Calvary 46:37 The blood that gives me strength 46:42 From day to day 46:47 It will never lose its power 46:54 You know the song? 46:56 For it reaches to the highest mountain 47:06 And it falls to the lowest valley 47:15 The blood that gives me strength 47:20 From day to day 47:25 It will never lose its power 47:32 Amen. 47:34 For it soothes my doubts 47:39 And it calms all my fears 47:45 And it dries all my tears 47:53 It's the blood that gives me strength 47:58 From day to day 48:03 It will never lose its power 48:10 Come on choir, here we go. 48:12 For it reaches 48:15 To the highest mountain 48:21 And it falls to the lowest valley, valley 48:32 The blood that gives me strength 48:36 From day to day 48:41 It will never lose 48:45 It will never lose 48:50 It will never lose its power 48:57 For it reaches, here we go. 48:59 For it reaches to the highest mountain, 49:07 Mountain 49:09 And it falls 49:11 To the lowest valley, valley 49:19 Yes, the blood that gives me my strength 49:24 From day to day 49:28 It will never lose 49:33 It will never lose 49:38 It will never lose its power 49:51 Amen. 49:52 Oh, I tell you. 49:55 It started flowing from Calvary and it's still flowing today. |
