(Singing) I know my God has made a way for me.
I know my God has made a way for me.
KENNETH: Hello everybody. This is Kenneth and Gloria
Copeland. Happy new year. 2019 is finally here.
Glory to God. GLORIA: 2019. KENNETH: Listen, we're going to
have a whoop-de-doo Gloria. GLORIA: Let's have it. KENNETH:
This is a big one. This is a big year. It's a major year ...
GLORIA: Praise God. KENNETH: ... in the kingdom of God. GLORIA:
Praise God. KENNETH: When things are happening in the kingdom,
when I'm talking about the kingdom, I'm talking about in
the spirit realm, everything happens in the spirit first, and
then it shows up on earth. When you see big changes start
happening and start, that's because it's already happening
in the spirit. The battle is fought in the spirit, and then
it manifests in the earth. The United States' been going
through a lot of changes, but if you look at it, the economy is
just ripping and going and I'm telling you, we're having
miracles and meetings and things all over the world. People are
just getting born again by the droves. Now, you wait and see
what happens in 2019. GLORIA: All right. KENNETH: It's good.
Father we thank you for this broadcast today. GLORIA: Thank
you Lord, yes. KENNETH: We come before you with praise in our
hearts, faith in our hearts and minds ... GLORIA: Praise God.
KENNETH: ... and we praise you and we worship you today. We
open our hearts and minds for revelation from heaven. GLORIA:
Thank you. KENNETH: In Jesus name, amen. GLORIA: Amen.
KENNETH: We're talking about faith and we've been talking
about the simplicity of faith. It is so simple. The more simple
that you can conceive of it, the more powerful it becomes.
Because if you mentally get messing with it, you know, no,
just keep it simple. Just keep it simple. Praise God, and it
just grows and grows and grows in you and on you. Now, we've
talked about, let's begin today Gloria, instead of in the gospel
of Mark, let's go over to the 11th chapter of Hebrews, and
let's read that first verse there in the beginning today.
Now, faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence
of things not seen. For by it, the elders obtained a good
report. Through faith, we understand that the worlds were
framed by the Word of God, so that things which are seen were
not made of things which do appear. The world, this all
matter, think like this. You go back to the beginning of
beginnings, there was no material substance. It was the
heavens. No matter. But then God, and how did he do it? Faith
in his mouth. GLORIA: Yes, he did. KENNETH: It all began with
faith and words. So he has then, and then he created man. Created
all the matter first, then he created man in his own image to
have faith and words. Now, when we get born again, we're spirit
beings. When you're born again, you're a spirit person, the real
you becomes a new creation. You're not just a forgiven
sinner. You're old things passed away. GLORIA: You're born again.
KENNETH: Yeah, same Corinthians five, 17 through 21. And all
things become new, and all things are got. When everything
didn't become new in your body and so forth, or your mind, you
have to renew your mind, you've got to do something with your
body. GLORIA: Yeah. KENNETH: But in your spirit man, you're just
like Jesus. Now then, we see right, let's go back there now
and look at that again. Now, faith is the substance of things
hoped for. So God already had that plan. He didn't say light
be and then say, "That looks good." No, he already knew it
all. If you study the Word, you'll find out, that he planned
it all. He did it all including you personally, and yeah, you,
you're very you person, and knew you before the foundation of the
world. Glory to God. All of that, so by the time he said it,
that faith force wrapped around the plan. That plan is called
hope. That's what he saw would come into being. But it needed
substance to become, and faith is that substance. He had the
plan and he spoke it. Now, we go to the Word and we're using
healing as our example, but the same thing is true with
financial scriptures or family scriptures, or whatever. Because
faith is the same in any realm like that. Now, faith is now. It
is now faith. That's the kind of faith it is. It's now faith.
Now, faith is the substance of the hope. Now, we talked about
hope already, the blessed hope. It was in Titus three, and then
the apostle Paul in Philippians talking about his expectation
and hope. Well, if you don't know what the Word says about a
subject, you don't know what to expect. The devil will prove to
you that it's not yours. When you know the plan, he comes at
you. Someday, I remember when you were building our house
there, that our contractor told me and also the architect told
me, he said, "Kenneth," he said, "This is one of the easiest
projects we have ever had." Because he said, "Gloria already
knew exactly what that house looked like, because she planned
it for 30 years. She knew, she had the plan." In fact, thank
you Lord for bringing this up. She came in to me one day, she'd
been working on this thing for I'm telling you 30 years. We'd
come home off the road and she, all her stuff, had come out on
the dining room table. She even had all of these pictures. She's
working and working and working and working. 30 years she did
this. She came in there to me one day and she said, "I'm
either going to have to build this thing or quit messing with
it." I said, "What?" She said, "I want to know whether it's
God's perfect will for us to build this or not." Because up
until then, it was a dream. She's just enjoying her
dreaming, and ... GLORIA: I had a plenty of paper and a pencil.
KENNETH: Yeah, just dreaming, dream. We took off three days
and prayed over it, and the Lord directed us to scriptures and
proved to us, I don't have time to get into that. But he proved
to us from the Word of God, supernaturally that it was his
will and it was time to start. Now, let me tell you what the
Lord said. He said, "Kenneth, the dream took upon itself
faith." What had happened, you had finally gotten to the place
where you had put on paper what he had designed for our home. It
was complete. Then he told me, he said, "You stay out of it,"
cause see, if I had got in there and messing around with it, I
mean, I just, it is got here. All of my stuff would have been
just mental. He said, "You just let her do it, and let her, let
her take care." GLORIA: Thank you. KENNETH: It was so easy to
build, and the money just flowed in there. I never said a word to
anybody about it. If you are a partner, you know I never said
anything to you or anybody else about it. We just believed God
and by the time we put the foundation, money was in the
bank to build it. What did that? Faith. GLORIA: But we had one
situation that not everybody has, we were told to pay cash
for it. KENNETH: Oh, yeah, because that's part of
everything else. GLORIA: 'Cause the scripture said don't go in
debt, so that's ... KENNETH: See, that was all ... GLORIA:
That made it a miraculous scenario. KENNETH: That went,
but well, but we started that by faith back there years before by
being obedient to the Lord. By the time it came time to build
that house, we had the house built in faith. GLORIA: We did.
KENNETH: By the time it came time to start flying jets, we
had jet flying faith. GLORIA: Yeah. KENNETH: You don't just
start off there. GLORIA: No. KENNETH: It's building. Ain't
there nobody fool enough to think that well, I sure do need
to build up my muscles. I know, praise God I have bigger
muscles, I have bigger muscles. That don't work in the natural.
GLORIA: No, it doesn't. KENNETH: Now, you can have energy filled
muscles that comes out of supernatural energy. But if
they're going to get any bigger, you have to get in the waiting
room, and it takes time. GLORIA: Yeah. KENNETH: It takes time to
build faith. GLORIA: Diligence. KENNETH: It takes time to build
it. That's the reason if you wait and you need it, you're too
late. Now, that don't mean you just give up, no, no, no. You're
not done yet, amen. But I want to impact you with the
encouragement, and to encourage you to be diligent, to get in
it, I mean all the time, you build and feed your spirit with
the Word of faith, all the time. Ever increasing faith. GLORIA:
That's right. KENNETH: Ever increasing faith, because hope
needs it. All right, now then, so faith is in the now. God is
always now. The blessed hope we talked about is the return of
Jesus, that's our blessed hope in Titus 2:13. That's in the
future. That's all it can be right now. Oh, I got my hope in
it Gloria, and man, my faith is built up to the point where I
sure I'm ready, and I'm expecting that. The stronger my
faith gets, the more I expect it. The more I expect it, the
better it gets. Now, you bring hope like that, fill it with
faith. Bible faith, which is a spiritual force. The hope is the
plan built out of the Word. I find my healing, I find my
deliverance. I find those things I need met in the Word of God,
and feed on it, and feed on it, and feed on it, and feed on it.
GLORIA: Say it, and say it, and say it. KENNETH: And say it and
say it, and say it, and say it, and say it, and say it, until it
gets bigger than the need in my own spirit. Then it will start
renewing my mind, and my mind will agree with it. Boy, you get
to that place, man, I'm telling you things start happening
faster and faster and faster and faster. You'll get to the place
where things will begin to happen more quickly, and more if
it will begin to happen just right and almost instantly. Now,
you're a beginner, that's wonderful. But don't consider
yourself a beginner for the past today. You can only begin once.
GLORIA: That's right. KENNETH: You're not a beginner after
today, you're a faith person, glory to God. Now then ...
GLORIA: Now then the scripture says, let patience have her
perfect. KENNETH: Yes, yes. GLORIA: It says through faith
and patience, you inherit the promises. KENNETH: You know
Gloria ... GLORIA: It's going to take patience possibly. KENNETH:
You know faith and patience are coupled together in scriptures
all over the new testament. GLORIA: Yes. KENNETH: Faith and
patience. I remember back years ago, I was doing a study on the
fruits of the spirit, which by the way, the best absolutely,
the best series on the fruit of the spirit I believe this
ministry ever produced was Gloria Copeland's. GLORIA: Thank
you. KENNETH: Go back online and look it up. Get it and study.
GLORIA: Praise God. KENNETH: Anyway, that's in King James
it's long suffering. The great text or like amplified is
patience. The pot force of patience. Now, the natural word
patience is oh, I got to put up with this. No, that's the flesh
identification of it. We're talking about supernatural
endurance. GLORIA: Yes, supernatural, God's patience has
a reward. KENNETH: Yeah. GLORIA: Suffering patience, just suffer
it all. There is no reward there. KENNETH: That's just the
natural end, just wait it out. No, this is supernatural
endurance, because I've got a hold of it by faith. Now, my
faith starts growing and then patience comes in and says,
"No, you don't, no, you don't, no, you don't. You're strong."
Yeah, I am, yeah, I am. Man, I'm here to stay. Praise God.
GLORIA: That's the way things happen. KENNETH: Let's go back
over to Mark 11:24. Therefore, Jesus said, I say unto you, what
things soever you desire. Stop right there, what do you desire?
Well, Brother Copeland, I desire to have a well body. I desire to
be out of debt. Or I desire this situation here that. It would do
you good, unless you're just something just glaring you right
in the face where that, oh, absolutely, that's my number one
desire. Like a physical thing that is really in your face. But
prioritize these things. Write them down because sometimes the
things down here that look like they don't amount to much, you
get down here and you're thinking about that, hey, well,
I never noticed before, but that could be reason why this up here
is messed up like it is. I need to get this straightened out.
Know what those desires are. But whatever they are, Jesus tells
you how to fix that, amen. Well, I sure hope so. Well, you'll
never mark, not one single one of them off your desire list,
your vision list. But whatsoever thing you desire, when you pray,
believe that you receive and you shall have. As I use this
illustration, we'll start again today with this. If Jesus
suddenly appeared and said, "Kenneth, what do you desire?"
"I desire a healed body Jesus." "Okay." "You mean it's that
easy?" "Yeah." "Really Jesus?" "Oh yeah, it really is." You
see, I bore not only your sins, but I bore ... GLORIA: Your
sickness. KENNETH: ... your sickness. I bore your disease, I
bore your pain." You just start of in Isaiah 53, and it didn't
say, by your stripes you're going to be healed. It says, "By
his stripes, we are healed." GLORIA: You are healed, you are
healed. KENNETH: Then you come over to 1st Peter, 2:24, by his
stripes you were healed." Well, seeing that, hey, that's past
tense. There's nothing hope involved with that glory to
God that's now. That's mine. It's my right to have a well
body. It's part of my right as a Christian. That's mine. It's my
right, and Satan, you got to get the sickness out of here. I have
a right to be healed. I'm supposed to prosper. I'm
supposed to be well. I'm supposed to be pain-free. Glory
to God. GLORIA: Jesus himself bore my sickness. KENNETH: Yes.
GLORIA: Carried my diseases. KENNETH: Yes. GLORIA: By his
stripes, I was healed. KENNETH: I was, if I was, I am. GLORIA:
That's right. KENNETH: Say this, according ... GLORIA: According
... KENNETH: ... to the Word of God ... GLORIA: ... to the Word
of God ... KENNETH: ... I am healed. GLORIA: ... I am healed.
According to my word, I am healed. I take it. KENNETH:
Jesus said, "Okay." GLORIA: I take it. KENNETH: Yeah. Okay,
yeah. You'll have a well body if that's what you desire. Really?
Yes. Believe, you'll receive it. Oh Jesus, I believe I receive
it. Okay, you'll have it. Gloria, it is that simple.
GLORIA: It is. KENNETH: You say, now see, the son of the living
God just said you'll have it. Wow, that means it's mine. Glory
to God, I'm taking it. It's mine. GLORIA: Yeah. KENNETH:
it's mine, it's mine, it's mine. Now, I'm down
to my next point, which is it's mine, it's mine, it's mine.
GLORIA: And just in time. KENNETH: Yeah, just in time.
Let's go to Philippians chapter four. This Gloria is where the
battles are lost. This is where the battle is won. Philippians
chapter four, starting with the sixth verse. Be careful for
nothing. Now, the amplified translation says, do not be
fretful or anxious about anything. Now, let's apply this.
Yes, glory to God each man. I've gone through the scriptures,
I've gone through the healing scriptures. I've got all the
healing scriptures tabbed in my Bible. Where I can start right
there in the book of Genesis, the days of man shall be 120
years. Just start with that and just come on right down through
the book of Revelation, with healing scriptures and feed my
eyes and quote them and say them with my mouth, and so
forth. But and I say it, I have it. It's mine now. It's mine.
It's mine. Gloria, I thought it was mine, but oh, what am I
going to do? Boy, here it comes. I'm in a battling zone, and you
may go two to three, four, five, six days a week, three, four,
five, six months in that pain, and all of a sudden. Oh no, I
thought I was healed. That stupid rash has started again. I
just thought I was healed of it. You better get ... GLORIA: Stay
it with it. KENNETH: Hey. GLORIA: Stay with the promise.
KENNETH: Let patience have her perfect glory. Now, you better
get your nerdy self back on your faith. You don't even, I mean,
you don't even pay any attention to that. I believe, I receive.
Thank God. Now, the NIV says, "Whatsoever thing you desire,
when you pray, believe that you have received it. " GLORIA: Yes.
KENNETH: Several translations translate that way. The new
living says, "Believe that it is granted to you, and you will
have it." Now, that's the taking, but that word grant in
English has a powerful impact on the English mind, because of
government grants, and the way we've been naturally trained and
taught about grants. I go to the Word. There is my grant. I make
a petition out of it, and I have a heavenly grant. It is mine.
GLORIA: Amen. KENNETH: Now, here is where you win it. But in
everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving.
The amplified says, "Continue making your wants known unto
God, and ... " Now this is a promise, "The peace of God which
passes, know the peace of God get a hold of you. And keep will
keep your heart and mind through Christ Jesus," listen, listen.
"Finally brethren, whatsoever things are true," that pain's
not true. That's a lie against the truth. Whatsoever things are
honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are
pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are
good report. If there be any per virtue, if there be any praise,
think on these things, and those things, what you both learned
and receive and heard and seen in me, you keep doing them. You
keep doing them, and the peace of God shall be with you. In
other words, you just keep praising. You just keep shouting
and praising. You cast that pain into the sea. Where's that pain?
It's in the sea. Glory to God, it's in the sea. Hallelujah, oh
God. You got it? Say amen. GLORIA: Amen. KENNETH: Gloria
and I will be back in just a moment.
