WEBVTT 00:00:07.679 --> 00:00:11.759 You're listening to the road with Pastor Teacher Steve Holt. 00:00:12.560 --> 00:00:14.800 Men and women, God's your father. 00:00:15.039 --> 00:00:16.559 And he loves you. 00:00:16.960 --> 00:00:20.320 And he wants an intimate relationship with each one of us. 00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:22.640 He really cares about us. 00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:32.479 God has given us this term of a father from Genesis all the way through, but it's only been recognized since the resurrection of Christ. 00:00:32.640 --> 00:00:34.000 Then we started getting it. 00:00:34.159 --> 00:00:36.479 The church started getting it because we had the Holy Spirit. 00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:42.880 The Holy Spirit was released, and the fatherhood of God was released upon the body of Christ. 00:00:44.719 --> 00:00:48.719 That's the best place for praise and worship. 00:00:49.039 --> 00:00:53.759 At The Road, our mission is to empower people to change the world. 00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:58.000 For more information on The Road, visit theroad.org. 00:00:58.159 --> 00:01:03.039 We hope you are encouraged by today's message from Pastor Teacher Steve Holt. 00:01:09.680 --> 00:01:11.680 Turning your Bibles to Matthew 6. 00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:17.200 That's where we we just quoted the verse here, 9 through 13, Matthew 6. 00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:24.719 If you guys have been with us over the last six months, we've been going through Matthew, call it kingdom revolution. 00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:36.640 And we come to the Lord's Prayer, and the Lord's Prayer is not meant to just be memorized and then recited as it most of the time is used in church. 00:01:36.879 --> 00:01:40.000 It's actually a template because look at verse 9. 00:01:40.239 --> 00:01:43.840 Jesus said, in this manner, therefore pray. 00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:48.640 In this manner, in other words, in this way, therefore pray. 00:01:48.879 --> 00:01:59.760 He just, he's going to tell us in the Sermon on the Mount, don't use recitation, don't use repeated verses when you pray, but rather pray this way. 00:01:59.920 --> 00:02:04.799 And so he's challenging us that this is a template for prayer. 00:02:05.040 --> 00:02:16.240 And there's no other prayer in all of the Bible that's so all-inclusive of all of our needs and how we grow as believers in Christ in the Lord's Prayer. 00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:19.599 Some people have called it the disciples' prayer, which is fine. 00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:23.039 I'm going to call it the Kingdom Revolutionary Prayer. 00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:33.120 It is a revolutionary prayer of releasing, men and women, the kingdom of God into your life. 00:02:33.439 --> 00:02:40.719 That's the reign and the rule of Christ, his kingdom over you. 00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:46.879 Because at the core of the prayer, you know how we talk about core when you're working out? 00:02:47.039 --> 00:02:50.240 The core of the prayer, or we might say the spine. 00:02:50.479 --> 00:02:57.439 The spine of the prayer is to pray, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. 00:02:57.759 --> 00:03:06.319 So at the very core of what Jesus is saying is, I want you to bring heaven to earth in everything you do. 00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:07.599 Isn't that radical? 00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:09.840 I mean, it's radical stuff right there. 00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:16.400 And so and so years ago, 35 years ago, I'm a struggling missionary. 00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:23.439 I'm in Okinawa, wanting God to move in a mighty way in Japan, and I come across the Lord's Prayer. 00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:31.759 And I come across the Lord's Prayer, and I began to study the Lord's Prayer, and I listened to cassette tapes. 00:03:33.520 --> 00:03:35.280 Cassette tapes. 00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:42.960 I mean, that's almost as old as saying, you know, a telephone. 00:03:43.520 --> 00:03:44.159 You know? 00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:50.319 Have you ever used a telephone that sits on a table, has a cord, a little cord and everything? 00:03:50.639 --> 00:03:52.560 You've probably seen them in museums. 00:03:52.960 --> 00:03:56.240 But we used to use those things pretty effectively. 00:03:56.479 --> 00:03:59.120 And there used to be phone booths. 00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:04.000 And you always want to know where the phone booth was so you could make a call. 00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:10.800 So anyway, back then we had cassette tapes, and I got a hold of a set of tapes by a guy named Larry Lee. 00:04:11.120 --> 00:04:13.520 And it was on the Lord's Prayer. 00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:19.600 And I mean, I went nuts over this thing. 00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:28.639 And for the next 10 years, for the next 10 years, the Lord's Prayer was my template for praying an hour a day. 00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:32.319 And it just changed my life. 00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:41.120 And so when I was looking at the Lord's Prayer today, because of where we were at, I'm thinking, okay, man, I can't, we can't spend the next 10 weeks just on the Lord's Prayer. 00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:42.240 So we're not. 00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:50.879 But we may spend more than one week on it because I want to break it down, and I don't want you to see it as a teaching on the Lord's Prayer. 00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:52.319 That's not what this is. 00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:56.480 This is a seminar on the Lord's Prayer. 00:04:56.639 --> 00:04:56.959 Okay? 00:04:57.279 --> 00:05:02.879 So the difference is, I want you to make the Lord's Prayer practical. 00:05:03.759 --> 00:05:12.560 In other words, I believe if you follow a little bit, even a slight bit of what I share today, it could radicalize your prayer life. 00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:21.120 Because everything you need and everything you want and everything you're longing for, for success, victory, faith, and joy in your life, it's right here. 00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:24.879 It's contained in verses 9 through 13. 00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:30.079 And again, it's not to be recited per se, though reciting it's fantastic. 00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:40.240 And I learned it in confirmation class when I was probably 14 years old and memorized it back then, and you should, and that's great, it's wonderful. 00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:45.759 But the real point he's bringing is don't recite it, live it, pray it. 00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:48.879 May it be a model, and I like the word template. 00:05:48.959 --> 00:05:50.560 It's like the Ten Commandments. 00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:52.720 Here's what's beautiful about the Ten Commandments. 00:05:52.879 --> 00:05:57.680 The first part of the Ten Commandments is all about your relationship with God. 00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:04.399 It talks about graven images, it talks about idols, it talks about keeping the Sabbath holy. 00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:10.399 Then, if you remember in the Ten Commandments in Exodus 20, it moves into your relationship with people. 00:06:10.560 --> 00:06:18.560 First, it's relationship with God, then it's relationship with people, and it starts talking about don't covet and don't steal and don't kill and has that. 00:06:18.720 --> 00:06:23.199 So the Lord's prayer that we're studying today is very similar. 00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:27.040 It starts off with our Father in heaven. 00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:29.600 And that's radical right there. 00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:34.879 We could do 20 messages on our Father who is in heaven. 00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:37.040 Twelve times. 00:06:37.519 --> 00:06:42.800 In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus says, Father, Father, Father. 00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:50.399 He's equating God as his father, and God as now our Father. 00:06:50.720 --> 00:06:57.040 Not just his father as the Son, but our Father as his sons and daughters. 00:06:57.600 --> 00:06:58.959 Men and women. 00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:02.720 That was radical at the time. 00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:08.720 The Pharisees and the Sadducees and the Scribes never addressed God as Father. 00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:16.639 Way too intimate to use the word here of Abba, of daddy, of that kind of intimacy with a father. 00:07:16.720 --> 00:07:18.399 You didn't use that for God. 00:07:19.040 --> 00:07:23.839 You didn't even say the name God the way it's said here. 00:07:23.920 --> 00:07:27.680 He's saying, our Father who is in heaven. 00:07:28.319 --> 00:07:30.560 Men and women, God's your father. 00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:33.279 And he loves you. 00:07:33.600 --> 00:07:36.959 And he wants an intimate relationship with each one of us. 00:07:37.360 --> 00:07:39.439 He really cares about us. 00:07:40.399 --> 00:07:50.319 And God has given us this term of a father from Genesis all the way through, but it's only been recognized since the resurrection of Christ. 00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:51.759 Then we started getting it. 00:07:51.920 --> 00:07:54.319 The church started getting it because we had the Holy Spirit. 00:07:54.399 --> 00:08:00.879 The Holy Spirit was released, and the fatherhood of God was released upon the body of Christ. 00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:03.199 So He's your Father. 00:08:03.439 --> 00:08:07.600 That's the best place for praise and worship. 00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:12.399 Start off a prayer time with praise and worship with our Father who is in heaven. 00:08:12.639 --> 00:08:13.759 Father, I love you. 00:08:14.000 --> 00:08:15.279 Father, I bless you. 00:08:15.519 --> 00:08:17.279 Father, I give you glory. 00:08:17.519 --> 00:08:18.800 Father, I worship you. 00:08:19.519 --> 00:08:21.439 Put on worship music. 00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:23.120 Go to YouTube. 00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:24.639 Take your favorite artist. 00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:29.360 Some of you are love the great historic hymns of the faith. 00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:31.920 I do too, and so sometimes I listen to hymns. 00:08:32.000 --> 00:08:33.919 Sometimes I listen to contemporary music. 00:08:34.080 --> 00:08:35.600 I like it all, man. 00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:37.200 I like it all. 00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:45.679 When I was uh when I was recently on a personal retreat, all I did in the background was I put on music scores from movies. 00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:52.240 Because I I love the music, the music score for Gladiator and for Braveheart and for all these movies. 00:08:52.320 --> 00:09:02.159 So I put those in the background as I study God's word, and it's inspirational, it's powerful because music often is a theology of the soul. 00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:07.759 And so we worship our Father who is in heaven. 00:09:07.840 --> 00:09:09.200 That's where it starts. 00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:14.639 Jesus is breaking all convention, he's breaking all religious convention. 00:09:14.720 --> 00:09:21.840 He's saying, you've got to learn, gang, to relate to God as your father. 00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:33.440 And that's why so beautifully in John 17 1 through 3, where Jesus prays this great prayer. 00:09:34.080 --> 00:09:40.399 And he says, to these words, he lifted up his eyes to heaven and he says, Father, the hour has come. 00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:43.519 He knows he's going to go to the cross. 00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:45.600 He knows he's about to die. 00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:50.399 And then in verse 3, he says, And this is eternal life. 00:09:51.600 --> 00:09:56.559 I'll bet if I ask you today, this group here, what is eternal life? 00:09:56.639 --> 00:10:01.679 If you didn't have this verse up here, we'd have a lot of answers about what is eternal life. 00:10:01.759 --> 00:10:13.200 But this is how Jesus defines eternal life, that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. 00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:19.840 Jesus says, first of all, know the Father, experience the Father, and then know me. 00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:22.559 You can't know me and not know the Father. 00:10:22.799 --> 00:10:25.440 You can't know the Father and not know me. 00:10:27.039 --> 00:10:33.039 And we could add the Trinitarian truth that comes through all through the New Testament after that, the Holy Spirit. 00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:42.799 So we we fall in love with a relationship with God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit. 00:10:44.320 --> 00:10:46.480 That's the beginning of the Lord's Prayer. 00:10:46.720 --> 00:10:49.200 Our Father who is in heaven. 00:10:50.639 --> 00:10:56.639 Hallowed or holy be your name. 00:10:57.120 --> 00:11:11.039 From intimacy to the character of God, who he is and how he works in our lives, hallowing, honoring the names of God, corresponding. 00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:13.600 I want to give you five benefits of the new covenant. 00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:15.120 And there's 20 benefits. 00:11:15.200 --> 00:11:26.480 There's 30 benefits, but here's five benefits of the new covenant that we have with Jesus Christ through the names, and I've just picked a few of the names of God. 00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:31.360 So five covenant benefits when we pray the names of God. 00:11:31.679 --> 00:11:32.000 Sin. 00:11:32.480 --> 00:11:34.720 Forgiveness of sin, number one. 00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:37.120 Jehovah sit canoe. 00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:40.240 Jehovah sit kanew. 00:11:40.639 --> 00:11:44.639 Jehovah, that means Jehovah, our righteousness. 00:11:44.960 --> 00:11:47.039 His righteousness in you. 00:11:47.200 --> 00:11:59.519 So when I was going through the Lord's Prayer back then, you guys, and I still have this Bible somewhere on my Bibles on the shelf, I wrote the names of God in one of the leafs of the Bible. 00:11:59.679 --> 00:12:13.039 And so when I would go through the Lord's Prayer, and I'd start off with praise and worship to our Father who is in heaven, I would then move to the names of God and I would pray, thank you, Lord, that you are Jehovah, sit canoe. 00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:15.440 Yet you're my righteousness. 00:12:16.000 --> 00:12:18.879 It's not my righteousness that makes me right. 00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:21.039 It's your righteousness that makes me right. 00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:27.200 It's your blood that was shed at Calvary that makes me righteous before you today. 00:12:27.279 --> 00:12:28.399 Isn't that great? 00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:31.759 Anyone have any bad weeks where you're not very righteous? 00:12:32.399 --> 00:12:33.039 Yeah. 00:12:33.759 --> 00:12:36.240 Well, it doesn't depend on you anyway. 00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:38.559 That's not what got you in. 00:12:38.720 --> 00:12:40.559 What got you in is what's going to keep you going. 00:12:40.639 --> 00:12:45.200 And what gets you in is faith in his righteousness living through you. 00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:48.159 Because you and I are up to no good. 00:12:48.879 --> 00:12:52.799 But his righteousness, Jehovah Sit Kano, says, it's his righteousness. 00:12:52.960 --> 00:12:54.080 God, thank you. 00:12:54.399 --> 00:13:04.799 You forgive me of my sins because you forgave me of my sins because you became my righteousness in my place because I'm never going to be righteous enough. 00:13:05.279 --> 00:13:10.480 I can follow the Ten Commandments to the cows come home, and I'm never going to be righteous enough. 00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:14.159 But you're righteous because you're Jehovah's Sit Kanoe. 00:13:14.960 --> 00:13:17.600 Jehovah Mekkadesh. 00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:23.039 Jehovah Mekkadesh means Jehovah who sanctifies. 00:13:23.279 --> 00:13:25.120 Jehovah who sanctifies. 00:13:25.360 --> 00:13:27.759 He is, listen to this, don't miss this. 00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:29.600 He's completing you. 00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:32.000 You're going to get there. 00:13:32.320 --> 00:13:34.480 God is sanctifying you. 00:13:34.720 --> 00:13:42.240 Sanctification is that process of becoming more and more like Christ with our lives. 00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:44.960 Salvation is a one-time event. 00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:48.399 Sanctification is millions of events after that. 00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:53.440 It's you coming up to that house that you're trying to decide whether you're going to buy or not. 00:13:53.519 --> 00:13:57.600 You decide you want to buy that house, and then you find out it's already been sold. 00:13:58.000 --> 00:13:59.759 And that, ugh. 00:14:00.320 --> 00:14:03.039 And then the Lord's sanctifying you through that. 00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:08.639 And most of the time, God uses hard things in our life to sanctify us. 00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:12.960 And so, and so he's Jehovah Mekkadesh. 00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:14.480 He's the one who sanctifies us. 00:14:14.559 --> 00:14:16.879 Isn't that good news when you don't feel very sanctified? 00:14:17.039 --> 00:14:21.039 Here's where it's really good news is when you don't think they're very sanctified. 00:14:23.279 --> 00:14:23.919 Right? 00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:27.679 Join the church and you'll know what I'm talking about. 00:14:28.960 --> 00:14:30.799 Go to work, you know what I'm talking about. 00:14:30.960 --> 00:14:32.320 Go to school, you know what I'm talking about. 00:14:32.879 --> 00:14:33.679 Those people. 00:14:33.919 --> 00:14:35.279 They call themselves a Christian. 00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:38.559 They got that little fishy thing on their bumper sticker and all that stuff. 00:14:38.720 --> 00:14:41.200 And I got cut me off in the parking lot. 00:14:42.639 --> 00:14:44.799 Wish they were more sanctified, like me. 00:14:45.440 --> 00:14:47.679 Because you're all angry and everything, right? 00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:49.919 Jehovah Sid Kano. 00:14:51.039 --> 00:14:52.799 Jehovah is our righteousness. 00:14:53.120 --> 00:14:56.000 Jehovah Mekadesh, Jehovah who sanctifies. 00:14:56.159 --> 00:14:58.000 That's under the rubric of forgiveness of sin. 00:14:58.080 --> 00:15:01.200 Number two, the Spirit, the fullness of the Holy Spirit. 00:15:01.279 --> 00:15:08.799 You have the fullness of the Holy Spirit, Jehovah Shalom, Jehovah is our peace. 00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:13.360 And Jehovah Shalom, I mean, Shalom is such a big word, it's such a deep word. 00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:15.440 It actually means wholeness. 00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:21.039 That idea of Jehovah, Shalom is peace. 00:15:21.200 --> 00:15:22.080 Yes, it is that. 00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:25.200 But it's it's harmony, it's wholeness. 00:15:25.919 --> 00:15:28.320 We say peace, we say shalom. 00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:40.639 And so we're in that process by doing that to say, I want the fullness of the Holy Spirit, because the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, and self-control. 00:15:40.879 --> 00:15:46.399 We could almost say that all of the fruit of the Spirit is under the rubric of shalom. 00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:48.639 Jehovah Shalom. 00:15:49.919 --> 00:15:51.039 That's great. 00:15:51.360 --> 00:15:53.039 To pray that every day. 00:15:53.279 --> 00:15:54.879 Jehovah Shammah. 00:15:55.200 --> 00:15:56.480 Jehovah Shammah. 00:15:56.799 --> 00:15:58.639 Jehovah, who is there. 00:15:59.840 --> 00:16:02.559 God's presence is with you, church. 00:16:02.879 --> 00:16:05.360 He's with you in your deepest sorrow. 00:16:06.000 --> 00:16:08.639 He's with you in your most victorious times. 00:16:08.799 --> 00:16:10.080 Jehovah is there. 00:16:10.240 --> 00:16:12.080 He's Jehovah Shammah. 00:16:12.399 --> 00:16:13.360 He is with you. 00:16:13.679 --> 00:16:15.039 Thank you, Lord. 00:16:15.519 --> 00:16:17.440 That you're with me, that you're there. 00:16:17.759 --> 00:16:20.159 Number three, he's our strength. 00:16:20.399 --> 00:16:24.320 So number one, he's our forgiveness of sin. 00:16:24.559 --> 00:16:26.559 Number two, fullness of the Spirit. 00:16:26.720 --> 00:16:28.080 Number three, he's our strength. 00:16:28.159 --> 00:16:30.320 He's our health and our healing. 00:16:30.559 --> 00:16:31.759 Jehovah Rophe. 00:16:32.399 --> 00:16:33.600 Jehovah Rophe. 00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:35.679 Jehovah who heals us. 00:16:35.919 --> 00:16:37.120 He heals us. 00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:40.240 He heals us of all of our diseases. 00:16:40.879 --> 00:16:43.279 Does it mean we always get healed? 00:16:43.519 --> 00:16:43.759 No. 00:16:44.000 --> 00:16:51.519 It means that he heals us of all of our disease, and we're in a process of that, and someday we're going to all be healed of all of our diseases. 00:16:51.759 --> 00:16:55.840 We'd like to get as many healed as possible on this side of heaven, right? 00:16:58.399 --> 00:17:00.399 But it's up to him to heal. 00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:03.039 And it's us to believe. 00:17:03.279 --> 00:17:04.640 Number four, success. 00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:06.640 God wants us successful. 00:17:06.960 --> 00:17:09.519 Freedom from the curse of the law. 00:17:09.839 --> 00:17:20.480 Now, how we define success may be different than the American dream, but God wants us free from the curse of the law, and that's Jehovah Jirah. 00:17:20.720 --> 00:17:24.559 Jehovah Jirah is the God who provides. 00:17:24.799 --> 00:17:30.240 He's going to provide for what we need in every situation that we're in if we're trusting him. 00:17:31.279 --> 00:17:37.920 And so we just say, God, Jehovah Jira over my finances, is to say, God's going to provide. 00:17:38.079 --> 00:17:48.160 Now let me just say this: if you're breaking all of his kingdom laws in the process of that, then you're going to have a real hard time having Jehovah Jireh show up because you're being disobedient. 00:17:48.240 --> 00:18:03.200 But if you're walking in obedience, your finances are under him, you're fearing God in all those areas, and you say, Jehovah Jireh, the God who provides, you're releasing faith and you're releasing God to do amazing things in your life. 00:18:03.519 --> 00:18:10.000 And then fifthly, lastly, security, freedom from the fear of death, freedom from the fear of hell. 00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:11.599 Jehovah Nishi. 00:18:11.920 --> 00:18:14.319 That means Jehovah is our banner. 00:18:15.039 --> 00:18:18.559 Jehovah Rohi, he is our shepherd. 00:18:18.880 --> 00:18:28.480 And so to begin prayer with worship and then to be claim those names of God, I would challenge you, and you can look all these up on the notes. 00:18:28.640 --> 00:18:29.519 They're in the app. 00:18:29.680 --> 00:18:31.440 We have all the notes that are there. 00:18:31.519 --> 00:18:34.480 And just you might just jot those down and put what they mean. 00:18:34.559 --> 00:18:37.759 They're all in the notes there, and put it in your Bible. 00:18:38.079 --> 00:18:41.359 And daily come to God and say that. 00:18:42.559 --> 00:18:46.559 I mean, you look, you look at that, the wholeness of what I just said. 00:18:46.799 --> 00:19:03.680 Jehovah's our righteousness, Jehovah who sanctifies us, Jehovah is our peace, Jehovah who is there, Jehovah who heals, Jehovah who will provide, Jehovah my banner, which another way to say that is my victory, and Jehovah my shepherd. 00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:05.759 Do you want it? 00:19:06.880 --> 00:19:07.920 Do you want it? 00:19:08.880 --> 00:19:11.119 Man, you guys are so unconvincing. 00:19:12.640 --> 00:19:14.960 Except for Ricky Bobby, you're convincing. 00:19:15.279 --> 00:19:16.640 Way to go, brother. 00:19:19.119 --> 00:19:20.640 Shake and bake, baby. 00:19:20.880 --> 00:19:21.519 Yeah. 00:19:22.799 --> 00:19:23.920 Do you want it? 00:19:24.880 --> 00:19:26.400 Well then pray it. 00:19:27.599 --> 00:19:28.559 Pray it every day. 00:19:28.720 --> 00:19:30.240 Watch what God will do. 00:19:31.200 --> 00:19:34.559 Miracles are still happening today for those who believe. 00:19:34.640 --> 00:19:35.440 Verse 10. 00:19:35.759 --> 00:19:42.000 Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. 00:19:42.319 --> 00:19:47.839 Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. 00:19:48.079 --> 00:19:57.920 Why not pray, starting with yourself, God, I pray your kingdom come and your will be done in my life as it is in heaven today. 00:19:58.240 --> 00:19:59.200 I need that. 00:19:59.920 --> 00:20:06.000 Lord, I pray your kingdom come and your will be done over my marriage if you're married. 00:20:06.240 --> 00:20:09.759 God, I pray your kingdom come, your will be done over my family. 00:20:09.920 --> 00:20:11.359 Name them by name. 00:20:11.519 --> 00:20:16.720 Lord, I pray your kingdom come and your will be done over my pastor and his staff team. 00:20:16.880 --> 00:20:22.240 God, I pray your kingdom come and your will be done over the church that I attend and the church that I'm a member of. 00:20:22.400 --> 00:20:25.920 God, I pray your kingdom come and your will be done on my job. 00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:32.240 I pray, Lord, your kingdom come and your will be done over this issue that we're not sure about right now. 00:20:33.200 --> 00:20:53.359 You think God isn't gonna hear that prayer and want to move mightily for someone who's praying what he gave us a template to pray for, to ask for the reign and the rule of Jehovah Jirah and Jehovah Mekkadesh and Jehovah Shalom over all those areas of our life? 00:20:53.519 --> 00:20:56.960 He's not gonna work in a mighty and more powerful way in your life? 00:20:57.279 --> 00:20:58.960 Are you kidding me? 00:20:59.440 --> 00:21:01.519 That's awesome stuff. 00:21:02.160 --> 00:21:04.960 He's just looking for faith on the earth. 00:21:06.079 --> 00:21:08.640 He's just looking for faith on the earth. 00:21:09.039 --> 00:21:13.359 Most of us in the church don't believe what I just said. 00:21:14.319 --> 00:21:20.079 We give lip service to it, but we really don't believe it because this is life-changing stuff. 00:21:20.160 --> 00:21:27.119 And if we started praying these kind of prayers, I'll tell you what, man, God would come and rock our worlds. 00:21:28.000 --> 00:21:29.759 He will rock our worlds. 00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:40.880 I remember when we were in the heyday in Okinawa praying this prayer all the time, and we were really going for it, and Liz was doing it, and I was doing it, and we were praying this, and then I had all my staff there in Okinawa were doing it together. 00:21:40.960 --> 00:21:50.400 And I remember this Korean guy who was an evangelist traveling with another evangelist that was a good friend of mine, entered our apartment and immediately got healed of a sickness that he had. 00:21:50.640 --> 00:21:53.599 Those kind of things will start to happen in your life, folks. 00:21:53.920 --> 00:21:59.759 You start creating an atmosphere of thy kingdom come and thy will be done in your heart. 00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:06.319 Home at your work over you, and this is where it's really a miracle, in your car. 00:22:09.599 --> 00:22:13.039 I know you can't believe God for that. 00:22:13.359 --> 00:22:19.759 But driving to work and you're late, and that dude cuts you off. 00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:22.319 Guilt. 00:22:23.279 --> 00:22:29.039 I went to Walmart this morning on the way to church because I couldn't find my brown belt. 00:22:31.519 --> 00:22:32.960 The Walmart belt, folks. 00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:34.400 The beauty. 00:22:35.680 --> 00:22:37.200 And I'm gonna tell you something. 00:22:37.440 --> 00:22:38.960 I broke the law. 00:22:40.559 --> 00:22:41.200 I did. 00:22:42.480 --> 00:22:44.400 I sat it that light. 00:22:49.759 --> 00:22:51.839 For at least five minutes. 00:22:53.200 --> 00:22:54.559 I'm Jamboree. 00:22:55.759 --> 00:22:56.960 I ran it. 00:22:57.920 --> 00:22:59.200 I ran it. 00:23:00.400 --> 00:23:02.160 I said, I looked around. 00:23:02.240 --> 00:23:06.880 I don't, I just do not see any cameras anywhere. 00:23:09.920 --> 00:23:13.200 So any police officer in the room, we prayed for you a few minutes ago. 00:23:13.359 --> 00:23:14.799 So give me grace, okay? 00:23:14.880 --> 00:23:19.599 But so we pray, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. 00:23:19.680 --> 00:23:25.920 And so you pray it over yourself and you pray it over your family and you pray it over your job and you pray it over your church. 00:23:26.799 --> 00:23:30.720 You pray it over your driving and your obedience to the law of the land. 00:23:31.920 --> 00:23:32.960 That's not in here. 00:23:33.039 --> 00:23:35.519 I just added that for myself. 00:23:35.920 --> 00:23:39.359 Give us this day, verse 11, give us this day our daily bread. 00:23:39.599 --> 00:23:43.519 Well, you can't have bread if you don't have money. 00:23:43.759 --> 00:23:46.960 And you can't have money if you don't have a job. 00:23:47.680 --> 00:23:50.000 So he's saying, I want to provide for you. 00:23:50.079 --> 00:23:51.440 I'm gonna help you get a job. 00:23:51.519 --> 00:23:55.680 I'm gonna help you get the kind of job that you need, I'm gonna help you get the kind of job that you're good at. 00:23:55.839 --> 00:23:57.279 I want to guide you in that. 00:23:57.440 --> 00:23:58.799 That's what he means there. 00:23:58.960 --> 00:24:00.799 He's talking about daily bread. 00:24:01.039 --> 00:24:09.599 And he's talking about spiritual sustenance, but he's also talking about monetary, occupational, financial blessing. 00:24:09.839 --> 00:24:10.880 God wants to give you that. 00:24:11.200 --> 00:24:11.839 Ask for it. 00:24:12.079 --> 00:24:14.720 Lord, I need, he knows what we need. 00:24:14.880 --> 00:24:18.799 It also means that when we're in the job that we're in, work hard. 00:24:19.119 --> 00:24:20.559 Show up on time. 00:24:21.279 --> 00:24:22.799 Do your job. 00:24:23.519 --> 00:24:30.880 Don't tell me when you when you come to work late on a regular basis and they fire you, it's demons. 00:24:34.319 --> 00:24:37.920 Demons have got way bigger jobs to do than that. 00:24:38.160 --> 00:24:44.240 They're figuring, hey, you're you're ruining your own life anyway, so we'll go haunt somebody else. 00:24:46.079 --> 00:24:50.079 At least gives demons something to fight against. 00:24:51.200 --> 00:25:01.680 So if you got a job and you're not doing your job right, then ask God to start giving you the power and the anointing and the strength to be self-disciplined and do your job. 00:25:02.799 --> 00:25:04.559 That's daily bread. 00:25:05.920 --> 00:25:12.160 Because, you know, we see today increasingly you you look at employers asking the question, where's some good? 00:25:12.400 --> 00:25:13.359 I need good employees. 00:25:13.440 --> 00:25:15.200 I need people who do their job. 00:25:15.279 --> 00:25:25.680 And I'm telling you, we get spirit-filled believers who get in there and you work hard and you're disciplined and you have self-control and you show up and you even stay a little late and come a little early. 00:25:26.160 --> 00:25:28.559 You might be president of the company in a week. 00:25:28.720 --> 00:25:32.480 I mean, that's I mean, the competition's not as tough as it used to be. 00:25:33.839 --> 00:25:35.599 So just be faithful. 00:25:35.839 --> 00:25:39.599 Be faithful to your employer, be faithful to your boss. 00:25:39.839 --> 00:25:41.599 If you say you're gonna do something, then do it. 00:25:41.759 --> 00:25:42.720 Be honest. 00:25:44.480 --> 00:25:48.000 And quit blaming the devil because you're lazy bones. 00:25:49.359 --> 00:25:54.400 Some of you just way too lazy, and I don't care where you're going to heaven or not, you're saved or not, you're still just lazy. 00:25:56.000 --> 00:25:58.160 And so it's the way you're raised, probably. 00:25:58.480 --> 00:26:00.960 And you know, you got away with stuff all the time. 00:26:01.279 --> 00:26:03.599 Well, it doesn't work that way out there. 00:26:04.720 --> 00:26:05.920 You're out of here. 00:26:06.240 --> 00:26:09.279 Man, the demons are just they're just everywhere. 00:26:09.599 --> 00:26:10.799 No, no. 00:26:11.039 --> 00:26:13.119 You need to get an alarm clock. 00:26:14.240 --> 00:26:15.920 You need to take a shower. 00:26:16.480 --> 00:26:18.400 Some of you need to put on some deodorant. 00:26:18.480 --> 00:26:20.160 I mean I'm telling you, you stink. 00:26:20.480 --> 00:26:21.839 I've been around some of you. 00:26:22.000 --> 00:26:24.799 I've had to pull you to the side and say, dude, you stink. 00:26:25.039 --> 00:26:25.920 They go, what? 00:26:26.079 --> 00:26:27.920 And you smell bad, man. 00:26:28.480 --> 00:26:30.960 There's this thing called deodorant. 00:26:31.440 --> 00:26:33.119 You want me to go buy you some? 00:26:34.240 --> 00:26:36.000 Your breath is terrible, man. 00:26:36.160 --> 00:26:40.000 That breath, I can smell your breath like 150 yards away. 00:26:40.319 --> 00:26:48.240 When you walk in, man, it just it see, a lot of the guys like that, they're not demonized because even demons run from people with bad breath. 00:26:50.720 --> 00:27:01.599 So, no, when we're praying for God's daily bread, he wants to provide for us, but he also calls us to a higher standard, too, gang. 00:27:01.759 --> 00:27:06.079 And so, you know, if you need accountability, get accountability. 00:27:06.240 --> 00:27:08.880 If you need to go to seminars, go to seminars. 00:27:09.119 --> 00:27:10.160 You know, be smart. 00:27:10.319 --> 00:27:14.160 You can go on YouTube now and you can seminar anything. 00:27:14.400 --> 00:27:20.000 If you want to get into financial advising, you feel like that's where God's called you, then there's seminars
