>> PETER: DOES IT MATTER
WHAT YOU BELIEVE? SOME
PEOPLE SAY AS LONG AS YOU
BELIEVE, THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH.
IN FACT, WHEN IT COMES TO
GOD, BY BELIEVING WRONG
ABOUT GOD, WE CAN SERIOUSLY
HANDICAP OURSELF.
WE CAN REALLY HURT OURSELF,
SO WHEN IT COMES TO GOD,
WHAT WE BELIEVE ABOUT GOD IS
SO VERY IMPORTANT.
TODAY, I'M GOING TO SHARE A
POWERFUL STORY THAT
ILLUSTRATES THIS.
YOU'LL NOT WANT TO MISS IT.
>>Announcer: GOD'S LOVE
ELEVATING, ENERGIZING,
EMPOWERING.
MIRACLES HAPPEN WHEN YOU
KNOW THAT YOU ARE LOVED.
PETER YOUNGREN HAS
COMMUNICATED GOD'S LOVE WITH
MILLIONS FROM EVERY RELIGION
AND CULTURE.
GET READY FOR YOUR ULTIMATE
LIFE BECAUSE YOU ARE LOVED.
>> PETER: THANK YOU FOR
BEING WITH US TODAY.
WE'RE GOING TO GET TO THAT
POWERFUL ILLUSTRATION BEFORE
THIS HALF HOUR IS OVER AND
YOU'LL NOT WANT TO MISS ONE
PART.
IT WILL TAKE UP HALF OF OUR
PROGRAM.
IN FACT, AND I THINK IT WILL
REALLY SPEAK TO EVERYONE.
NOW, THE GRACE PRAYER
CENTER, THE GRACE PARTNER
AND PRAYER CENTER IS OPEN
AND YOU CAN CALL THERE.
THERE ARE PRAYER MINISTERS
STANDING BY TO PRAY WITH YOU
AND BELIEVE GOD WITH YOU AND
ALSO I WANT TO REMIND YOU
THAT THE TEACHING WE DO THIS
WEEK, SIN CONSCIOUS OR GOD
CONSCIOUS, QUESTION MARK,
REALLY, WHICH ONE ARE WE?
YOU GET ABOUT, I SUPPOSE,
25% OF WHAT YOU GET IS-- AS
COMPARED TO GETTING THE
WHOLE 100%, WHICH YOU GET IF
YOU ORDER THIS CD ALBUM
CALLED FREEDOM FROM SIN
CONSCIOUSNESS, THIS IS SO
POWERFUL IN BUSINESS, IN
FAMILY LIFE, IN
RELATIONSHIPS, IN YOUR OWN
WAY OF ASSESSING YOURSELF,
RELIGION HAS CONDITIONED US
TO BE SIN CONSCIOUS, BUT
JESUS SETS US FREE FROM
THAT.
SO GO AHEAD AND ORDER THAT.
YOU CAN SEE THE INFORMATION
RIGHT THERE.
NOW, I'M SO GRATEFUL FOR
EVERYBODY WATCHING OUR
TELEVISION.
MANY OF YOU TELL ME YOU
WATCH EVERY DAY, EVERY DAY.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
BUT WE HAVE ALSO ANOTHER
VEHICLE THAT WE USE TO
COMMUNICATE JESUS.
WE CALL IT JESUS IN THREE.
NOW WHAT WE DO WITH JESUS IN
THREE, IT'S ROUGHLY THREE
MINUTES AND IT COULD BE
2: 55 OR 3: 05.
ROUGHLY THREE MINUTES AND
YOU CAN GET IT ON YOUR PHONE
OR QUICKLY ON THE WAY TO,
WOULD.
YOU WILL GET A THREE-MINUTE
INSPIRATION ABOUT WHO JESUS
IS.
REMEMBER, THE BIBLE REVEALS
JESUS.
AND SO THE ENTIRE OLD
TESTAMENT JESUS SAYS, IT
CONTAINS TRUTH AND TREASURES
ABOUT CHRIST.
SO THE POINT OF THE WHOLE
BIBLE IS TO REVEAL JESUS TO
US.
SO MAKE THAT ACCESSIBLE AND
I REALIZE NOT EVERYBODY HAS,
YOU KNOW, HALF AN HOUR OR
WANTS TO SIT DOWN, SOME OF
YOU RECORD OUR PROGRAM BUT
ALSO IN ADDITION TO THE
PROGRAM, ON YOUR WAY TO WORK
OR JUST ON A LUNCH BREAK, ON
A COFFEE BREAK, YOU CAN PLAY
THAT LITTLE JESUS IN THREE.
IT'S AVAILABLE ON OUR
WEBSITE.
YOU CAN SEAT INFORMATION
THERE, IF YOU DON'T ALREADY
HAVE THAT AND I PUT IT ON
FACEBOOK.
YOU KNOW, I GO TO MY PUBLIC
PAGE FACEBOOK AND WE POST IT
THERE.
ONCE A WEEK, WOE POST JESUS
IN THREE AND MAKE SURE YOU
GET THAT.
WELL, ONE OF THE VERY FIRST
JESUS IN THREE THAT WE DID
WAS IN AFRICA, AND IT TALKED
ABOUT AND TALKING ABOUT THE
ARMOR OF GOD.
I'M GOING TO GO TO THAT ONE
RIGHT NOW.
YOU CAN GET A FEELING FOR
WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT.
CHECK THIS OUT.
WELCOME TO JESUS IN THREE
WHERE I TRY TO SAY SOMETHING
VERY MEANINGFUL ABOUT JESUS
CHRIST AND YOU IN LESS THAN
THREE MINUTES, AND YOU CAN
SEE WE'RE NOT IN OUR STUDIO
TODAY I AM IN TANZANIA,
AFRICA.
I WAS THINKING OF EPHESIANS
6:11 WHERE IT SAYS PUT ON
THE WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD.
WHAT DOES THAT REALLY MEAN?
I KNOW THAT SOME HAVE MADE
IT INTO A SPIRITUAL EXERCISE
WHERE YOU-- WITH YOUR MOUTH
DECLARE I PUT ON THE BREAST
PLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.
I PUT ON THE GOSPEL OF PEACE
SHOES.
I PUT ON THE HELMET OF
SALVATION, AND I WANT YOU TO
THINK A LITTLE BIT DEEPER.
LET'S GLOW THROUGH THAT
ARMOR MENTIONED IN EPHESIANS
6.
YOU PUT ON THE HELMET OF
SALVATION, AND I ALREADY
MENTIONED THE BREAST PLATE
OF RIGHTEOUSNESS AND THEN
YOU HAVE THE BELT OF TRUTH,
AND THEN YOU HAVE THE SHOES
OF THE GOSPEL OF PEACE.
THEN THE SHIELD OF FAITH.
AND THEN THE SWORD OF THE
SPIRIT WHERE IT SAYS, WHICH
IS THE WORD OF GOD.
THINK ABOUT THAT.
SO WE START WITH THE HELMET.
WHO IS OUR SALVATION? WHO
IS OUR SAVIOR? JESUS
CHRIST.
BREAST PLATE OF
RIGHTEOUSNESS, WHO IS OUR
RIGHTEOUSNESS? CHRIST, OUR
RIGHTEOUSNESS.
THINK ABOUT THE BELT OF
TRUTH.
WHO SAID I AM THE TRUTH?
JESUS CHRIST.
THINK ABOUT THE SHOES OF THE
GOSPEL OF PEACE.
WHO IS THE PRINCE OF PEACE?
AGAIN, JESUS CHRIST.
SHIELD OF FAITH WHEREBY WE
WILL QUENCH ALL THE FIERY
DARTS OF THE WICKED ONE
WHO IS THE AUTHOR AND
FINISHER OF FAITH? THE LORD
JESUS CHRIST, AND FINALLY,
THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT,
WHICH IS A PICTURE OF THAT
SHORT ROMAN SOLDIER'S SWORD,
THE SOLDIER WOULD KEEP IN
HIS BELT, NOT A LONG FENCING
KIND OF SWORD, AND IT IS THE
WORD OF GOD.
WELL, JOHN 1 TELLS US IN THE
BEGINNING WAS THE WORD AND
THE WORLD WAS WITH GOD AND
THE WORD WAS GOD, AND THE
WORD BECAME FLESH AND DWELT
AMONG US.
SO WHO IS THAT SWORD OF THE
SPIRIT, THE WORD OF GOD.
IT'S JESUS CHRIST.
SO WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO PUT
ON THE WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD?
IT MEANS THAT YOU ARE
DRESSED IN JESUS CHRIST.
YOU SEE YOURSELF IN CHRIST.
YOU DON'T SEA YOURSELF AS A
SOLO ACT TRY LIVE LIFE BY
YOUR OWN STRENGTH.
YOU SEE YOURSELF IN CHRIST.
WELL, I'M GLAD YOU ARE
WATCHING TODAY, AND PLEASE
GO TO PETE AREYOUNGREN.ORG.
WE NEED YOUR HELP RIGHT NOW.
WE'RE REICHING OUT TO THE
WORLD.
YOU KNOW WE ARE ON THE
FRONTLINES IN SO MANY
PLACES.
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH.
GOD BLESS YOU.
WOW, THAT WAS GOOD.
I'M GETTING ENCOURAGED
MYSELF LISTENING TO THAT.
WE ARE DRESSED IN JESUS
CHRIST.
SOMETIMES WE MAKE THINGS
INTO THE IT, THE
RIGHTEOUSNESS, THE
SALVATION, THE FAITH, THE
PEACE.
IT'S ALL ABOUT STUFF AND
DIFFERENT THINGS, BUT
REALLY, ALL THE THINGS ARE
WRAPPED UP IN JESUS CHRIST.
WELL, WE COULD CLOSE THE
PROGRAM RIGHT THERE AND WE
GOT LOTS MORE GOOD THINGS
COMING UP THAT YOU'LL NOT
WANT TO MISS.
I'M GOING TO GO TO THE
CONCLUSION OF THE TEACHING
WE'VE BEEN SHOWING YOU OVER
THE LAST FEW DAYS.
SIN CONSCIOUS OR GOD
CONSCIOUS? REMEMBER, BEFORE
WE GO THERE THE INFORMATION
THAT'S ON YOUR SCREEN.
WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU AND
THEN I HAVE SOMETHING VERY
IMPORTANT TO SHARE WITH YOU
AT THE VERY END.
LET'S GO FOR.
THIS GOSPEL IS FAIL PROOF
AND FOOL PROOF.
FAIL PROOF, IT MEANS IT
CAN'T FAIL.
NOT SUBJECT TO HUMAN ERROR
BECAUSE IT'S NOT A HUMAN
THING.
IT'S A GOD THING AND IT IS
FOOL PROOF.
YOU KNOW, EVERY RELIGION,
YOU CAN TAMPER WITH IT A
LITTLE BIT.
CHANGE IT AROUND A LITTLE
BIT.
CHANGE THE RULES A LITTLE
BIT.
HAVE YOU NOTICED THAT? HOW
MANY HAVE BEEN AROUND A
CHURCH FOR 30 YEARS OR MORE?
OKAY.
HAVE YOU NOTICED THINGS
CHANGE A LITTLE BIT? SOME
OF THE STUFF THAT PEOPLE
THOUGHT WAS REALLY BAD ISN'T
ADDRESS BAD ANYMORE AND
MAYBE NEW THINGS ARE BAD.
YOU CAN ALWAYS TAMPER WITH
IT.
THE GOSPEL, YOU CAN'T TAMPER
WITH AND PEOPLE GET A LITTLE
BIT NERVOUS AND SAY, WELL,
WHAT IF PEOPLE MISUNDERSTAND
YOU, PETER? WHAT IF THEY
THINK IT'S OKAY TO SIN AND
SINCE ALL OF OUR SINS HAVE
BEEN PUT AWAY.
NO, YOU SEE, YOU HAVE SO
LITTLE FAITH IN JESUS.
THERE'S SO LITTLE FAITH IN
JESUS, YOU SEE, THIS, IF WE
REMEMBER THAT OUR SINS HAVE
BEEN PUT AWAY, REMEMBER WHAT
OUR FIRST SCRIPTURE SAID, IT
PRODUCES SELF-CONTROL.
YOU BECOME A MORE
SELF-CONTROLLED,
DISCIPLINED, DETERMINED,
PERSEVERING, FULL OF
BROTHERLY KIND OF LOVE KIND
OF PERSON.
HOW MANY OF YOU LIKE A
CHURCHFUL OF PEOPLE.
WHAT WAS THE KEY? KEEP
REMEMBERING WHAT JESUS HAS
DONE FOR YOU.
IT SAYS IN I TIMOTHY 2A2,
AND I CALL IT THE LAW OF
DISTRACTION.
FLEE YOUTHFUL LUSTS.
THAT'S A FAVORITE SCRIPTURE
OF YOUTH PASTORS.
FLEE YOUTHFUL LUSTS.
OH, BOY.
YOU CAN REALLY PREACH THAT
IN THE YOUTH SERVICE.
AND ALL THE OLD PEOPLE CAN
RELAX.
FLEE YOUTHFUL LUSTS.
OH, BOY.
YOU CAN REALLY LIST A LOT OF
THINGS.
THE VERSE DOESN'T END THERE.
THERE'S A SEMICOLON AFTER
LUST, AND IT SAYS PURSUE
RIGHTEOUSNESS, FAITH, LOVE
AND PEACE.
AND THEN IT SAYS ILLUSTRATE
IT BY A BABY.
I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU THAT
ILLUSTRATION.
SO IN OTHER WORDS, HOW DO
YOU FLEE LUSTS? BY PURSUING
CHRIST'S RIGHTEOUSNESS, THE
FAITH OF GOD, THE LOVE OF
GOD, THE PEACE OF GOD, AND
THE WAY I LEARNED THIS AND
THAT'S WHY I HAVE MY
KEYCHAIN.
ARE YOU WITH ME HERE? YOU
CAN'T HAVE MY CAR BUT I HAVE
MY KEYCHAIN HERE AND I
LEARNED QUICKLY, WHEN KIDS
ARE SCREAMING IN THE CRIB,
WHEN KIDS ARE IN THE PLAYPEN
SCREAMING, IT DOESN'T HELP
THAT YOU SCREAM AT THEM.
YOU CAN STAND BY A LITTLE
BABY, LITTLE THREE-MONTH-OLD
AND YOU COULD SCREAM BACK
AND IT'S GOING TO LOOK
INSANE.
STOP CRYING, KID!
I SHAKE.
YOU DON'T DO THAT.
THAT'S AGAINST THE LAW.
DON'T DO THAT.
WHAT I FIND WORKS IS THE LAW
OF DISTRACTION. WHEN A CHILD
WAS CRYING, I KNOW HOW TO BE
A DADDY.
I WOO JUST GO AND GET MY
KEYCHAIN AND I WOULD JUST
STAND THERE--
[ RATTLING KEYS ]
DEE DEE DEE DEE DEE, OH, OH.
AND IT WOULDN'T TAKE VERY
LONG.
IT WOULD TAKE JUST A FEW,
MAYBE 15 SECONDS AND WE GO,
OH, OH.
AND LOOK AT THIS AND
WHATEVER THEY WERE CRYING
ABOUT, WHETHER IT WAS A
FILLED DIAPER OR A HUNGRY
BELLY OR JUST SOMETIMES KIDS
ARE JUST REBELIOUS.
I MEAN, NOT YOURS BUT KIDS
IN GENERAL ARE REBELIOUS.
SO THEY FORGOT ABOUT IT
BECAUSE I DISTRACTED THEM.
SEE WHAT WE DO, WE TAKE THE
FIRST PART OF THAT VERSE,
FLEE YOUTHFUL LUSTS AND WE LIST
ALL THE LUSTS WE CAN THINK OF.
THE MORE YOU TALK ABOUT
LUST, THE MORE PEOPLE WILL
LUST.
IT'S TRUE.
[LAUGHTER]
IF YOU ALWAYS ARE TELLING
PEOPLE, OH, THERE'S SO MUCH
SIN, THERE'S SO MANY
PROBLEMS, PEOPLE WILL SAY,
OH, MY GOODNESS, IF THERE'S
THAT MUCH SIN, I BETTER JOIN
THE CROWD AND SIN, TOO.
I'VE BEEN TOO HOLY HERE.
AND YOU HAVE THE LAW OF
DISTRACTION.
YOU SAY, YOU KNOW THE WAY
YOU FLEE SIN AND TEMPTATIONS
IS BY FOCUSING ON JESUS.
FOCUS ON HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS.
THINK ABOUT JESUS.
THINK ABOUT HIS PEACE.
THINK ABOUT HIS LOVE AND YOU
GET DISTRACTED.
PEOPLE COME TO ME FOR
COUNSELING AND I DON'T DO A
LOT OF COUNSELING, BUT THEY
TELL ME, OH, I NEED TO BE
FREE FROM THIS AND THAT, AND
I SAID, WELL, HOW OFTEN DO
YOU FALL INTO THIS SIN? OH,
EVERY WEEK.
I SAY, OKAY, TAKE JESUS WITH
YOU.
YOU OPEN UP THIS SITE ON THE
INTERNET AND OPEN IT UP AND
SAY, THANK YOU, JESUS, I
WORSHIP YOU, LORD, AS I OPEN
THIS SITE.
I THANK YOU THAT THE SPIRIT
OF GOD LIVES IN ME.
THANK YOU THAT YOU MADE ME
RIGHTEOUS.
I'M A NEW CREATION AND KEEP
OPENING THE SITE AND YOU
WILL GET SICK.
YOU'RE GOING TO FEEL LIKE I
GOT A STOMACH PROBLEM.
I BETTER GO LAY DOWN BECAUSE
LITERALLY YOU WILL FEEL SICK
BECAUSE THE NEW NATURE IN
YOU WILL NOT LET YOU GO TO
THAT SITE.
HOW DO YOU DO IT? STOP
THAT!
WE GOT TO STOP THIS!
NO.
WE DISTRACT YOU IN THE MOST
HOLY, SPIRIT-DIRECTED
DISTRACTION BY TELLING YOU,
LOOK AT WHO JESUS IS, AND
THEN PEOPLE SAY, YOU KNOW
WHAT? I CAN'T EVEN SIN
ANYMORE.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED
TO ME BECAUSE I'M SO
JESUS-FOCUSED.
[ APPLAUSE ]
BE GOD CONSCIOUS AND LET ME
TELL YOU A STORY, ONE MORE
VERSE, BEAUTIFUL STORY THAT
ILLUSTRATES THIS.
DOES IT HURT TO YOU BE SIN
CONSCIOUS.
IT REALLY HURTS YOU TO THINK
THAT GOD IS OUT TO GET YOU.
STUNTS YOUR GROWTH.
YOU BECOME LESS THAN WHAT
YOU WERE INTENDED TO BE.
THERE'S A STORY IN THE
BIBLE, SOME OF YOU KNOW IT.
IT'S ABOUT KING SAUL AND
DAVID.
KING SAUL WAS ANOINTED BY
GOD TO BE KING.
GREAT PERSON FOR A WHILE BUT
HE TOOK MATTERS IN HIS OWN
HAND.
HE THOUGHT HE COULD MAKE
HIMSELF LIKE A PRIEST LIKE
GOD SO HE ANOTHER FITTED HIS
POSITION, YOU COULD SAY.
HE LOST IT.
AND THEN WHAT HAPPENED SAUL
HAD A SON CALLED JONATHAN.
AND JONATHAN WAS COMPLETELY
DIFFERENT FROM HIS DAD.
HE WAS A VERY INNOCENT,
PURE, PEACEFUL KIND OF A GUY
AND SO SAUL BEGAN TO FIGHT
AGAINST DAVID.
BUT JONATHAN, SAUL'S SON,
MADE A COVENANT WITH DAVID.
IN THAT STORY, DAVID IS A
PICTURE OF GOD.
SAUL IS A PICTURE OF US.
PICTURE OF ADAM.
ADAM WAS CREATED GLORIOUS.
HE WAS AIN'T NOD TO BE KING,
REALLY.
HE FORFEITED THAT.
HE WALKED AWAY.
HE COMMITTED HAMASHEA.
THEN WE WALKED AWAY.
WE'RE LIKE SAUL.
JONATHAN IS A PICTURE OF
JESUS BECAUSE JESUS CAME
FROM MARY, DIDN'T HE? HE
CAME FROM THE FALLEN HUMAN
RACE.
JESUS WAS BORN AS A HUMAN SO
HE CAME FROM SAUL.
AND BASEMENT OUR PERFECT
REPRESENTATIVE AND GOD,
DAVID, MADE A COVENANT WITH
JONATHAN, JESUS, ON OUR
BEHALF THE COVENANT WAS THAT
WHATEVER HAPPENS, WHATEVER
THE FUTURE BRINGS, DAVID
SAYS, BECAUSE OF OUR
COVENANT, JONATHAN, I'M
ALWAYS GOING TO TREAT YOUR
FAMILY GOOD.
YOU WILL NEVER LACK IN YOUR
FAMILY.
THAT'S MY COVENANT.
BUT THEN WHAT HAPPENED,
YEARS WENT BY AND THERE WAS
ANOTHER BOY IN SAUL'S
HOUSEHOLD CALLED MA FIB
CHEF.
THAT'S A TOUGH NAME.
YOU DON'T NAME YOUR KIDS
MEPHIBOSHETH.
THAT'S ONE OF THOSE REALLY
HEAVY NAMES AND DAVID WAS
REALLY DOING GOOD AND DAVID
IS A PICTURE OF GOD.
AND MEPHIBOSHETH HAD A NURSE
AND THE NURSE WAS ALWAYS
SAYING, DAVID IS A BAD GUY.
HE'S OUT TO GET US.
IF HE CATCHES YOU, HE'LL
KILL YOU.
HE'S OUT TO GET YOU.
SHE WAS SPREADING THESE
RUMORS ABOUT DAVID WHICH
WEREN'T TRUE SO LITTLE
MEPHIBOSHETH AND HE THOUGHT
DAVID IS A BAD GUY.
IF I GET CAUGHT IN THE HANDS
OF DAVID, I'M DONE.
THAT'S HOW PEOPLE THINK
ABOUT GOD.
THEY'VE HEARD FROM RELIGION
THAT GOD IS OUT TO GET THEM.
WHAT HAPPENED? DAVID'S
ARMY'S COMING AND THE NURSE
BELIEVED THE LIE AS WELL.
SO SHE TAKES LITTLE
MEPHIBOSHETH AND SHE RUNS TO
ESCAPE FROM DAVID, BUT SHE
TRIPS AND FALLS AND
MEPHIBOSHETH GETS INJURED
AND BECOMES LAME, BECOMES
HANDICAPPED.
CAN'T WORK ANYMORE.
YOU KNOW, MANY PEOPLE ARE
LIKE MEPHIBOSHETH.
THEY'RE HANDICAPPED
SPIRITUALLY AND SOCIALLY
BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW THAT
GOD LOVES THEM.
THEY DON'T KNOW THAT GOD HAS
ONLY GOOD INTENTIONS AND
THEY THINK THAT GOD IS OUT
TO GET THEM F I TRIED
HARDER, GOD WOULD HAVE
BLESSED ME.
MEPHIBOSHETH IS A PICTURE OF
PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN LIED
TO.
THE NURSE IS A PICTURE OF
PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN LIED
TO, THEY THINK THAT GOD IS
OUT TO NAIL THEM FOR SOME
SIN OR HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE
FOR GET THEM FOR WHATEVER
THEY DID WRONG.
THEY DON'T KNOW THAT GOD IS
A SAVIOR.
GOD IS A RESTORER.
GOD LOVES YOU.
THEY DON'T KNOW THAT.
SO NOW THEIR LIFE IS KIND OF
HURT AND INJURED, AND WHAT
HAPPENS THEN IS TIME GOES BY
AND DAVID HEARS ABOUT SAUL'S
FAMILY.
AND HE SAYS, IS THERE
ANYBODY AMONG SAUL'S FAMILY,
I MADE A COVENANT WITH
JONATHAN THAT I WOULD BLESS
SAUL'S FAMILY.
IS THERE ANYBODY THERE WHO
NEEDS TO BE BLESSED? THEY
SAID, THIS ONE GUY, HIS NAME
IS MEPHIBOSHETH AND HE LIVES
IN A PLACE CALLED LOW TODAY
BAR.
IT'S LIKE LOW-DA-BAR.
[LAUGHTER]
IT MEANS NO PASTURE.
IF YOU HAVE NO PASTURE, YOU
HAVE NO FOOD OR GRAZING FOR
THE CATTLE.
IT MEANS NO LIFE, NOTHING TO
FEED YOU.
HERE IS LITTLE MEPHIBOSHETH.
HE'S LIVE INNING LOW TODAY
BAR.
HE'S LIVING LOW DOWN AND MY
LIFE IS WORTH NOTHING.
NOBODY WILL TAKE CARE OF ME.
NOBODY LOVES ME.
DAVID IS MEAN.
THIS IS DAVID DOING THIS TO
ME.
HE'S JUST OUT TO GET ME.
HE'S LIVING THIS SAD LIFE
AND DAVID SAYS, IS THERE
ANYBODY? THEY SAY, WELL,
YEAH, THERE'S ONE GUY IN LOW
TODAY BAR AND HE'S THE SON
OF SAUL.
AND DAVID SAYS, HERE IT IS,
II SAMUEL 9, VERSE 1.
DAVID SAYS, IS THERE ANYONE
IN THE HOUSE OF SAUL THAT I
MAY SHOW KINDNESS FOR
JONATHAN'S SAKE, AND THEY
TELL HIM ABOUT THE LOW TODAY
BAR AND ALL OF THAT.
HE SAYS, A FEW VERSES LATER,
DO NOT FEAR FOR I WILL
SURELY SHOW YOU KINDNESS FOR
JONATHAN, YOUR FATHER'S SAKE
AND I WILL RESTORE TO YOU
EVERYTHING, THE LAND OF
SAUL, YOUR GRANDFATHER AND
YOU SHALL EAT AT MY TABLE
CONTINUALLY.
SO HERE COMES NOW THE REAL
DAVID, THE REAL GOD, DAVID
WAS ALWAYS FULL OF KINDNESS
TOWARD MEPHIBOSHETH AND GOD
HAS ALWAYS BEEN FULL OF
KINDNESS TOWARD OUR WHOLE
COUNTRY, TO OUR RELATIVES
AND EVERY PERSON IN THE
WHOLE WORLD AND THE MESSAGE
COMES, GOD LOVES ME.
GOD 1 PROVIDED A SEAT AT THE
TABLE.
I NEVER HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT
FOOD AND EVERYTHING I LOST,
IT'S GOING TO BE RESTORED TO
ME AND DAVID SAID I GOT THIS
ASSOCIATE OF MINE AND IT'S
ZIBA.
MEPHIBOSHETH AND ZIBA IS AN
ASSOCIATE AND HE HAS 15
SERVANTS AND 20 SONS.
AND THEY'RE GOING TO HELP
YOU.
WHEN YOU NEED HELP, CALL
ZIBA AND EVERYTHING IS TAKEN
CARE OF.
OH, IS THAT THE ABUNDANT
LIFE OR WHAT? BUT THE
TRAGEDY IS THAT PEOPLE DON'T
KNOW THAT GOD HAS MADE A
COVENANT ON YOUR BEHALF
THROUGH JESUS.
SO THEY ALL KNOW AND THEY
HAVE ALL KINDS OF WEIRD
VIEWS OF GOD SO MEPHIBOSHETH
SUFFERED A LOT OF PAIN
BECAUSE HE DIDN'T BELIEVE
GOOD ABOUT GOD OR ABOUT
DAVID IN THAT CASE.
I WANT TO TELL YOU, BELIEVE
GOOD ABOUT GOD.
BELIEVE THAT YOUR GOD HAS
PUT AWAY YOUR SIN AND YOUR
SHAME.
HE HAS PUT AWAY-- BELIEVE
GOOD ABOUT YOUR GOD BECAUSE
HE WILL MAKE YOU GROW.
IT WILL MAKE YOU HAVE MORE
SELF-CONTROL AND HAVE MORE
BROTHERLY KINDNESS AND HAVE
MORE-- ALL THOSE GOOD
THINGS, MORE LOVE AND MORE
PERSEVERANCE, MORE
DETERMINATION.
BELIEVE GOOD ABOUT YOUR GOD!
[ APPLAUSE ]
BE GOD CONSCIOUS NOT SIN
CONSCIOUS.
WELL, I WANT TO PRAY WITH
YOU RIGHT NOW BECAUSE, WELL,
WHEN WE SEE THIS BY
BELIEVING WRONG ABOUT GOD,
WE HURT OURSELVES.
YOU KNOW, MANY PEOPLE, THEY
BELIEVE WRONG.
THEY BELIEVE THAT GOD IS
PUNISHING THEM.
THEY BELIEVE THAT THEY HAVE
A SICKNESS BECAUSE OF
SOMETHING THAT THEY DID AND
GOD IS HOLDING THAT AGAINST
THEM.
A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE
SELF-INFLICTED WOUNDS AND
THEY ARE DEEPLY ROOTED IN A
WRONG BELIEVING ABOUT GOD.
SO NOW WHEN I KIND OF BEEN
PULLING UP THOSE ROOTS AND
PULLING UP THOSE WEEDS, IF
YOU WISH, OUT OF YOUR
SPIRITUAL GARDEN WHICH IS
YOUR HEART, YOU KNOW, WHAT
THAT MEANS? IT'S EASY TO
PRAY.
IT'S EASY FOR ME TO PRAY.
IT'S EASY FOR YOU TO PRAY
WITH ME AT HOME.
IT'S EASY FOR TO YOU BELIEVE
AND TO RECEIVE WHERE YOU ARE
SITTING RIGHT NOW.
EASY FOR YOU.
SO LET'S DO IT RIGHT NOW.
I GOT SOME OTHER VERY
IMPORTANT THINGS TO TALK TO
YOU ABOUT IN A MOMENT.
BUT RIGHT NOW, I'M GOING TO
MOVE WHILE THE IRON IS HOT,
SO TO SPEAK.
GOD SHOWS KINDNESS BECAUSE
OF JESUS.
JESUS HAS PROVIDED OUR
HEALING, OUR BLESSING,
EVERYTHING WE NEED, JESUS
SHOWED US WHO GOD IS.
AND SO BY JESUS COMING, OUR
EYES ARE OPEN AND SAY, OH,
NOW I SEE WHO GOD REALLY IS.
AND THEN JESUS TAKES OUR
PAIN AND OUR SHAME AND OUR
HUMILIATION AND OUR GUILT
AND ALL THAT NEGATIVE JUNK
AND HE TAKES IT TO THE
CROSS.
AND HE TAKES ALL THE
RELIGION JUNK THAT IS KIND
OF KEEPING YOU IN YOUR PLACE
AND MAKING YOU FEEL INFERIOR
AND HE PUTS IT AWAY.
HE PUTS IT AWAY.
SO THAT THERE'S NO CHARGE
THAT CAN BE LAID AGAINST
YOU.
WELL, THAT'S A GOOD REASON
TO PRAY.
FATHER, I THANK YOU.
I THANK YOU FOR MIRACLES.
I THANK YOU FOR POWER.
I THANK YOU FOR LIFE GOING
WHEREVER THIS PROGRAM IS
GOING RIGHT NOW.
ALL ACROSS OUR NATION IN THE
NAME OF JESUS AND AROUND THE
WORLD WHEREVER PEOPLE ARE
WATCHING IN THE NAME OF
JESUS, RIGHT NOW, GOD'S
POWER IS THERE TO TOUCH YOU.
GOD'S POWER IS THERE WITH
YOU RIGHT NOW IN THE NAME OF
JESUS.
GO AHEAD AND RECEIVE AND
JUST SAY THANK YOU, LORD.
I WANT YOU TO TAKE A MOMENT
AND JUST ENJOY YOURSELF AND
SAY, THANK YOU, JESUS.
THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU HAVE
DONE FOR ME AND JUST GO ON
AND RECEIVE THAT AND REJOICE
IN IT AND WHEN YOU ARE DONE
THE REJOICING AND DONE THE
RECEIVING, GO TO THE
TELEPHONE.
AND YOU SEE IT THERE AND
SAY, I WANT TO REPORT.
IF YOU DON'T GET THROUGH,
LEAVE A MESSAGE.
LET US KNOW WHAT GOD HAS
DONE FOR YOU.
WE CAN REJOICE TOGETHER.
YOUR STORY IS IMPORTANT OF
WHAT GOD HAS DONE FOR YOU,
AND SO KEEP DOING THAT AND
THEN, I WANT TO TALK TO YOU
AGAIN ABOUT THIS HUGE
INITIATIVE.
THE ONE MILLION INITIATIVE.
THIS LITTLE BOOK, WHICH WE
WANT TO GIVE TO ONE MILLION
MUSLIM FRIENDS IN THE
WESTERN WORLD.
NOW FOR YEARS, WE'VE BEEN
HAVING SUCH SUCCESS IN
REACHING MUSLIMS AROUND THE
WORLD, BUT YOU KNOW, WHAT
ABOUT RIGHT HERE IN OUR
COUNTRY? WATCH THIS.
>>Announcer: 1.7 BILLION
MUSLIMS.
YES, THE MISSION FIELD IS
THOUSANDS OF MILES AWAY.
BUT IT'S ALSO RIGHT HERE ON
OUR DOORSTEP RIGHT NOW.
HOW ABOUT THE MUSLIM LADY
SHOPPING IN THE SAME GROCERY
STORE YOU DO?
HOW ABOUT YOUR PHARMACIST OR
A NEARBY SHOPKEEPER? HOW
ABOUT MUSLIMS IN YOUR
NEIGHBORHOOD? DOCTORS,
SHOPKEEPERS, PHARMACISTS AND
COWORKERS, PEOPLE JUST LIKE
YOU EXCEPT ONE BIG
DIFFERENCE.
THEY ARE MUSLIMS.
THERE ARE ENORMOUS
OPPORTUNITIES TO SHARE THE
GOSPEL.
BUT HOW? WHAT SHOULD WE DO
OR SAY? GOD HAS WORKED
THROUGH PETER YOUNGREN AND
WORLD IMPACT MINISTRIES TO
REACH LITERALLY MILLIONS OF
MUSLIMS WITH THE GOOD NEWS
OF JESUS CHRIST.
MOST OF THESE GOSPEL
SUCCESSES HAVE HAPPENED
THROUGH GOSPEL CAMPAIGNS IN
COUNTRIES LIKE INDONESIA,
PAKISTAN, TANZANIA, NORTHERN
NIGERIA AND ZANZIBAR.
FOR THE LAST THREE YEARS,
WORLD IMPACT MINISTRIES HAS
GIVEN LEADERSHIP TO THE ONLY
24/7 GOSPEL TELEVISION
CHANNEL IN THE WORLD'S
LARGEST MUSLIM CITY,
KARACHI, PAKISTAN.
THAT TV CHANNEL NOW REACHES
49 NATIONS.
ALMOST ALL OF THEM ISLAMIC.
MUSLIMS LOVE TO TALK ON
RELIGION ISSUES.
THEY LOVE TO READ.
SO WHEN THE ISLAMIC WORLD,
ONE OF THE BEST WAYS TO
REACH PEOPLE IS THROUGH
LITERATURE.
PETER YOUNGREN'S BOOK, HOPE
FROM JESUS CHRIST, OR AS IT
IS CALLED IN THE ISLAMIC
WORLD, HOPE FROM ISA EL
MASSEY IS MET WITH A
REMARKABLE RESPONSE IN
PAKISTAN.
THIS BOOK HAS BEEN REQUESTED
BY TENS OF THOUSANDS AND
MANY HAVE RECEIVED CHRIST.
PETER YOUNGREN SAYS,
WHEREVER I GO ACROSS NORTH
AMERICA AND EUROPE, CARING
BELIEVERS ASK ME, WHAT SHALL
WE DO TO REACH MUSLIMS IN
OUR COUNTRY? I CANNOT
IGNORE THIS QUESTION
ANYMORE.
THAT'S WHY WE ARE LAUNCHING
THE ONE MILLION INITIATIVE.
WORK IS NOW UNDERWAY FOR AN
ENGLISH VERSION.
THEN IN ARAB PICK THEN IN
OTHER LANGUAGES SPOKEN BY
MUSLIMS.
ONE MILLION IS ABOUT PUTTING
THIS BOOK INTO THE HANDS ONE
MILLION MUSLIMS EACH YEAR.
WE MUST NO LONGER STAND IDLY
BY AS MILLIONS OF MUSLIMS
POUR INTO EUROPE, AMERICA
AND THE WESTERN WORLD.
WE RECEIVE THEM.
WE WELCOME THEM THROUGH
LANGUAGE PROGRAMS, FOOD,
WINTER CLOTHES AND IN SO
MANY OTHER PRACTICAL WAYS,
BUT THERE IS LITTLE OR NO
PLANS TO SHARE THE GOSPEL.
HOPE FROM JESUS CHRIST IS A
70-PAGE BOOK THAT CHRISTIANS
CAN GIVE TO MUSLIMS THAT
THEY MEET IN THEIR DAILY
LIFE.
THE END OF THE BOOK, THERE
IS AN INVITATION FOR MUSLIMS
TO KNOW MORE ABOUT CHRIST BY
CONTACTING YOU A UNIQUE
WEBSITE DESIGNED TO TEACH
MORE ABOUT CHRIST AND TO
CONNECT NEW BELIEVERS TO
LOCAL CHURCHES.
EITHER WE FOLD OUR HANDS AS
IF THERE WAS NOTHING THAT WE
COULD DO OR WE, THE
BELIEVERS IN JESUS CHRIST,
RISE UP AND CHANGE HISTORY.
YOUR PARTICIPATION IS
URGENTLY NEEDED.

THE TIME TO BE PASSIVE IS

THANK YOU.
>> PETER: IN FACT, THE TIME
FOR ACTION, I THINK, IS LONG
OVERDUE.
THIS IS SO CRUCIAL.
THIS IS SO IMPORTANT AND I
APPRECIATE YOU GOING RIGHT
NOW TO YOUR TELEPHONE AND
PARTICIPATE IN THERE.
GO ONLINE AND YOU SEE THE
GIVING OPTION THERE AND IT
IS LONG OVERDUE BECAUSE WHAT
WE ARE SEEING IN OUR COUNTRY
AND IN EUROPE AND TO SOME
DEGREE IN THE UNITED STATES,
BUT WE'RE SEEING IT HERE IN
CANADA IS ALL THE WORLD IS
COMING HERE.
WE WELCOME THEM.
WE WANT TO HAVE OPEN ARMS.
THAT'S OUR CHRISTIAN
HERITAGE TO SHOW LOVE AND BE
WELCOMING TO PEOPLE, BUT
WHAT ABOUT THE GOSPEL? I
LOOKED AT PIT I LOOKED AT
IT, AND THEN I FELT LIKE THE
LORD SAID TO ME, WHY DON'T
YOU PUT THE TRUTH THAT YOU
SHARE WITH MUSLIMS AND
BUDDHISTS AND HINDUS AND
ALSO WITH MUSLIMS ALL OVER
THE WORLD THAT IS BRINGING
SUCH RESULTS, WHY DON'T YOU
PUT KNIT A BOOK AND MAKE
EIGHT VAILABLE TO MUSLIMS IN
OUR COUNTRY? WE'RE ALREADY
DOING IT OVERSEAS.
THE SAME BOOK, WE HAVE IT IN
PAKISTAN AND NOW I WANT TO
GET IT TO BE IN ARABIC AND
MANY OTHER LANGUAGES.
I NEED YOUR HELP.
I REALLY, REALLY NEED YOUR
HELP.
WE DON'T HAVE THE FUNDS, BUT
I BELIEVE GOD TO TOUCH YOUR
LIFE.
HELP US TO DO THIS AND DO IT
BECAUSE YOU ARE LOVED.
>>Announcer: THANK YOU.
YOUR PARTNERSHIP MAKES THIS
MINISTRY POSSIBLE.
TO SHARE YOUR PRAYER REQUEST
OR TO HELP BRING THE GOOD
