1
00:00:00,001 --> 00:00:09,660
Good morning, Springhouse.

2
00:00:09,660 --> 00:00:12,860
Has it been a good day in the house so far?

3
00:00:12,860 --> 00:00:15,120
It's going to continue to be.

4
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:22,980
Would you look at your neighbor and say, "The message today is for you."

5
00:00:22,980 --> 00:00:28,900
I'm beginning to wonder if supporting a sports team is kind of like politics.

6
00:00:28,900 --> 00:00:31,840
You want to keep both out of the pulpit.

7
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:35,160
When I walk up here, it's kind of like, you know, I don't want people to be like, "I can't

8
00:00:35,160 --> 00:00:37,440
receive anything from a Packers fan."

9
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:47,440
Hey, I will become more undignified than this, okay?

10
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:48,440
Don't make me take off my shirt.

11
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,440
That will scare everybody.

12
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:51,440
Welcome.

13
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,480
If you're joining us on live screen, we are not crazy.

14
00:00:53,480 --> 00:00:55,600
I am, but we're not.

15
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,360
We're glad that you're joining us today.

16
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,660
We have a ladies' retreat this coming weekend, Bloom.

17
00:01:00,660 --> 00:01:05,360
And so if you are participating, if you're one of the 77 going on that, would you come

18
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,320
and to the altar space?

19
00:01:07,320 --> 00:01:08,320
We want to pray sanity.

20
00:01:08,320 --> 00:01:16,500
I mean, we want to pray over you all.

21
00:01:16,500 --> 00:01:19,160
Go ahead and I know that you're going to get close at the retreat.

22
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:20,160
Go ahead and get close now.

23
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,160
We can go and practice right now.

24
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:23,160
Okay.

25
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,240
Let's do this.

26
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:29,080
While they're coming, if you are a husband of one of these wives, would you stand?

27
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:36,280
If you're a husband of one of these wives, in the name of Jesus, I ask Lord that you

28
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:37,400
would bless these men.

29
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,720
I pray Lord that you would touch them.

30
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:43,720
I pray Lord, if they have kids that they are raising, Lord, that they would be alive and

31
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,640
well when these women get back in Jesus' name.

32
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:47,640
Amen.

33
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,080
Let our houses not be destroyed.

34
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,440
Now ladies, turn and face me.

35
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,500
Hey, this is a time of refreshing.

36
00:01:56,500 --> 00:01:58,900
This is a time of community.

37
00:01:58,900 --> 00:02:02,460
This is a time to dive into the word deep.

38
00:02:02,460 --> 00:02:07,880
And I know that we have the most incredible women in this church, incredible moms, incredible

39
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,760
wives, incredible spouses.

40
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:15,200
We have the cream of the crop and I am so grateful for the time that you can carve away

41
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,540
and get away and soak in the word and soak with each other.

42
00:02:18,540 --> 00:02:23,000
My prayer is that you don't wait until Friday to start preparing your heart, that you would

43
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,760
prepare your heart now so you can receive everything.

44
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:26,760
And why is that?

45
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,600
I'm selfish because I know that the overflow, what you get affects us.

46
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,560
And so I'm excited about everything God has for you guys.

47
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,840
Are you ready to receive this weekend?

48
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:36,840
Well let's pray.

49
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,800
Father, thank you so much for the women who are assembled here.

50
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,360
God, I thank you Lord for this retreat that's coming up.

51
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:48,720
I'm asking that the tangible move of your Holy Spirit would show up and manifest itself

52
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:49,720
this weekend.

53
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:54,480
I pray, Lord, that there would be secret moments that are unlocked, Father, secret truths that

54
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:59,240
are unlocked, Father, as these women pursue you in thirst for righteousness, thirst for

55
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:00,720
you, everything you have for them.

56
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:02,280
I ask, Lord, that you would bless them.

57
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:03,560
I ask that you would keep them.

58
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:08,800
God, I ask, Lord, that they would come back abundantly filled in Jesus' name.

59
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,680
And everybody said, amen, amen.

60
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:16,160
Lord bless you guys on your journey to your retreat location.

61
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,480
I don't know exactly where that is.

62
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,920
Garner Creek, okay.

63
00:03:21,920 --> 00:03:24,680
Some of the guys and I might come up and throw water balloons at you.

64
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:25,680
We'll see.

65
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:26,680
Come on.

66
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:27,680
Just kidding.

67
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,680
Are you guys in a laughing mood today?

68
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:31,680
Yeah.

69
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:32,680
Okay.

70
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:33,680
This is not a laughing message.

71
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:35,880
I just wondered.

72
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:37,880
I just wondered.

73
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:39,520
Next Sunday we're gonna do some baptisms.

74
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,600
If you've never been water baptized, I encourage you to do so.

75
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,480
It's our next step in obedience post-salvation.

76
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,680
And if you need to be baptized, come see one of the pastors or elders, and we would be

77
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,720
happy to get you signed up to be water baptized next week.

78
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,600
So we'd like you to avail yourself to that.

79
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,000
I wanna start this morning with an apology.

80
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,720
I wanna start this morning with an apology.

81
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:07,760
You know, it has always been my desire, and it will continue to be my heart, my desire,

82
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:12,320
that when you leave this church every Sunday, that you would be thinking about nothing more,

83
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,360
nothing less than Jesus Christ.

84
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,520
And the move of the Holy Spirit in your life.

85
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:21,100
And a couple of weeks ago, I delivered a message, and the crux of the message, this was when

86
00:04:21,100 --> 00:04:24,880
Saul was, the conversion of Saul, and the crux of the message at the end is I wanted

87
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:29,780
us to walk away with the understanding that the Holy Spirit empowers us to do hard things.

88
00:04:29,780 --> 00:04:32,120
He empowers us to do hard things.

89
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,880
And at the end of that message, I shared a little bit of a story with you guys.

90
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:39,680
I got vulnerable with you, something fresh that had happened to me.

91
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,200
If some of you were here, you remember that story that I shared.

92
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:46,300
It was difficult for me to get through because I was still working through those emotions

93
00:04:46,300 --> 00:04:50,560
and things, but I do believe the Lord wanted me to share that story with you.

94
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:55,960
However, I was speaking to somebody who's real close to me this week, and the Lord really

95
00:04:55,960 --> 00:05:01,240
kind of convicted my heart and said, you know, I needed to address this from the platform.

96
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:06,180
And I wanted to apologize to you because there are some people in here that are closely connected

97
00:05:06,180 --> 00:05:07,180
to me.

98
00:05:07,180 --> 00:05:11,540
And when I share a story that's a little bit vague, and I say there's somebody close to

99
00:05:11,540 --> 00:05:16,680
me that has done something to me, I understand that that might render some of you wondering,

100
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:17,680
who was it?

101
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,360
You know, who was that?

102
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:20,360
Who did that?

103
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,700
You know, and if you're close to me, you may be wondering, am I one of the ones who did

104
00:05:23,700 --> 00:05:25,940
that, you know, that particular thing?

105
00:05:25,940 --> 00:05:29,800
And I will tell you as a pastor, guys, I pray that this is always the case.

106
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:33,520
I will never bring some type of story like that with the person sitting here in the room.

107
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:34,520
That is not how we operate.

108
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,480
It's not how I operate.

109
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:42,880
But if you left that day thinking of anything else but this, I humbly apologize to you.

110
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:47,380
My heart is I want us to leave here thinking of Him, thinking of Jesus.

111
00:05:47,380 --> 00:05:48,380
Is that good?

112
00:05:48,380 --> 00:05:49,380
Okay.

113
00:05:49,380 --> 00:05:50,380
So forgive me for that.

114
00:05:50,380 --> 00:05:51,600
And with that, would you stand with me?

115
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,020
We're going to read Acts chapter 12 today.

116
00:05:55,020 --> 00:05:57,740
And the first service was wimpy.

117
00:05:57,740 --> 00:06:02,400
Would you guys read like you're awake and have had a couple shots of espresso?

118
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,300
Holy Spirit espresso this morning, okay?

119
00:06:04,300 --> 00:06:06,300
All right, here we go.

120
00:06:06,300 --> 00:06:13,580
"It was about this time that King Herod arrested some who belonged to the church, intending

121
00:06:13,580 --> 00:06:15,620
to persecute them.

122
00:06:15,620 --> 00:06:20,660
He had James, the brother of John, put to death with the sword.

123
00:06:20,660 --> 00:06:26,660
When he saw that this was met with approval from among the Jews, he proceeded to seize

124
00:06:26,660 --> 00:06:28,660
Peter also.

125
00:06:28,660 --> 00:06:32,900
This happened during the festival of unleavened bread.

126
00:06:32,900 --> 00:06:39,580
After arresting him, he put him in prison, handing him over to be guarded by four squads

127
00:06:39,580 --> 00:06:42,220
of four soldiers each.

128
00:06:42,220 --> 00:06:47,340
Herod intended to bring him out for public trial after the Passover.

129
00:06:47,340 --> 00:06:53,140
So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him."

130
00:06:53,140 --> 00:06:54,140
Let's read that last part.

131
00:06:54,140 --> 00:06:58,340
"But the church was earnestly praying to God for him.

132
00:06:58,340 --> 00:07:05,500
The night before Herod was to bring him to trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers

133
00:07:05,500 --> 00:07:10,580
bound with two chains, and centuries stood guard at the entrance.

134
00:07:10,580 --> 00:07:15,660
Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell.

135
00:07:15,660 --> 00:07:18,860
He struck Peter on the side and woke him up.

136
00:07:18,860 --> 00:07:23,500
'Quick, get up,' he said, and the chains fell off Peter's wrist.

137
00:07:23,500 --> 00:07:30,140
Then the angel said to him, 'Put on your clothes and sandals,' and Peter did so.

138
00:07:30,140 --> 00:07:35,580
'Wrap your cloak around you and follow me,' the angel told him.

139
00:07:35,580 --> 00:07:41,340
Peter followed him out of the prison, but he had no idea that what the angel was doing

140
00:07:41,340 --> 00:07:43,220
was really happening.

141
00:07:43,220 --> 00:07:46,000
He thought he was seeing a vision.

142
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:52,260
They passed the first and second guards and came to the iron gate leading to the city.

143
00:07:52,260 --> 00:07:56,220
It opened for them by itself, and they went through it.

144
00:07:56,220 --> 00:08:01,660
When they had walked the length of one street, suddenly the angel left him.

145
00:08:01,660 --> 00:08:07,700
Then Peter came to himself and said, 'Now I know without a doubt that the Lord has sent

146
00:08:07,700 --> 00:08:13,600
his angel and rescued me from Herod's clutches and from everything the Jewish people were

147
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,820
hoping would happen.'

148
00:08:15,820 --> 00:08:22,020
When this had dawned on him, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John, also called

149
00:08:22,020 --> 00:08:26,160
Mark, where many people had gathered and were praying.

150
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:32,520
Peter knocked at the outer entrance, and a servant named Rhoda came to answer the door.

151
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:38,500
When she recognized Peter's voice, she was so overjoyed, she ran back without opening

152
00:08:38,500 --> 00:08:41,940
it and exclaimed, 'Peter is at the door!'

153
00:08:41,940 --> 00:08:45,500
'You're out of your mind,' they told her.

154
00:08:45,500 --> 00:08:51,180
When she kept insisting that it was so, they said, 'It must be his angel.'

155
00:08:51,180 --> 00:08:58,140
But Peter kept on knocking, and when they opened the door and saw him, they were astonished.

156
00:08:58,140 --> 00:09:03,460
Peter motioned with his hand for them to be quiet and described how the Lord had brought

157
00:09:03,460 --> 00:09:05,380
him out of prison.

158
00:09:05,380 --> 00:09:11,820
'Tell James and the other brothers and sisters about this,' he said, and then left for another

159
00:09:11,820 --> 00:09:13,220
place.

160
00:09:13,220 --> 00:09:18,580
In the morning, there was no small commotion among the soldiers as to what had become of

161
00:09:18,580 --> 00:09:19,980
Peter.

162
00:09:19,980 --> 00:09:25,540
After Herod had a thorough search made for him and did not find him, he cross-examined

163
00:09:25,540 --> 00:09:28,260
the guards and ordered that they be executed.

164
00:09:28,260 --> 00:09:30,180
Father, I thank you for your word.

165
00:09:30,180 --> 00:09:31,740
I thank you that it brings life.

166
00:09:31,740 --> 00:09:33,180
I thank you that it brings joy.

167
00:09:33,180 --> 00:09:36,500
I thank you, Lord, that it is true and we can count on it.

168
00:09:36,500 --> 00:09:37,500
We love you today.

169
00:09:37,500 --> 00:09:38,500
Change our lives.

170
00:09:38,500 --> 00:09:42,620
In Jesus' name, amen.

171
00:09:42,620 --> 00:09:48,940
Well God is super faithful, and I'm glad that we don't have to contend with Herod, who's

172
00:09:48,940 --> 00:09:55,500
executing people left and right for following the way and his guards.

173
00:09:55,500 --> 00:10:00,860
And man, this Herod dude seems kind of aggressive, don't you think?

174
00:10:00,860 --> 00:10:06,420
And we're looking at this story in Acts chapter 12, and as I disclosed a few weeks ago, we've

175
00:10:06,420 --> 00:10:07,520
kind of back-stepped.

176
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,020
So we were in 13 last week.

177
00:10:09,020 --> 00:10:10,020
We're 12 today.

178
00:10:10,020 --> 00:10:13,700
We're actually going to go back to 11 next week and meet a man named Barnabas, and then

179
00:10:13,700 --> 00:10:16,740
we're going to jump back to where we were at 14.

180
00:10:16,740 --> 00:10:17,780
And so it's going to be good.

181
00:10:17,780 --> 00:10:21,420
So if you're keeping up with us, read chapter 11 for next week.

182
00:10:21,420 --> 00:10:27,020
But in today's passage, we're looking at this little, this part of scripture where Peter

183
00:10:27,020 --> 00:10:33,540
is being thrown into jail for basically sharing the good news of Jesus Christ, for sharing

184
00:10:33,540 --> 00:10:37,380
the actual truth, the way they called it, of Jesus Christ.

185
00:10:37,380 --> 00:10:42,700
Now the motivation for Herod, though, wasn't necessarily that he was sharing the gospel,

186
00:10:42,700 --> 00:10:45,740
though that was the crux of what was going on.

187
00:10:45,740 --> 00:10:50,780
Herod's motivation for throwing him into jail was that the crowd, the Jews, were favorable

188
00:10:50,780 --> 00:10:55,420
toward the persecution that he was throwing on those who were proclaiming the way.

189
00:10:55,420 --> 00:11:01,220
And so Herod said, "Hey, these people rallied around me really like the fact that I'm persecuting

190
00:11:01,220 --> 00:11:02,220
these people.

191
00:11:02,220 --> 00:11:06,060
I'm going to go after Peter as well, because Peter is well known in this, and we're going

192
00:11:06,060 --> 00:11:09,020
to really seize him and persecute him."

193
00:11:09,020 --> 00:11:14,040
Don't you know that you can succumb real easily to the crowd if you allow yourself to?

194
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:19,640
You can succumb real easily to what the crowd wants you to do, right, wrong, or in between,

195
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:27,380
when the voice tickles your ears and it really makes a difference in your fame and your popularity

196
00:11:27,380 --> 00:11:28,380
and how you feel.

197
00:11:28,380 --> 00:11:33,620
And Herod was succumbed to that, and he threw Peter in this jail.

198
00:11:33,620 --> 00:11:36,640
Now I've not been to prison before.

199
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,840
Some of you have.

200
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:45,320
And I'm glad that those who were in prison that are here today are no longer in prison.

201
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:49,340
And I'm sure if you've been in prison before, you're glad that you're here this morning

202
00:11:49,340 --> 00:11:51,020
as well.

203
00:11:51,020 --> 00:11:53,180
Prison isn't fun.

204
00:11:53,180 --> 00:11:56,020
Prison's not supposed to be fun, right?

205
00:11:56,020 --> 00:11:58,100
Prison strips you of your liberties.

206
00:11:58,100 --> 00:12:00,600
It strips you of your freedom.

207
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:04,780
And it's not a place that you want to be.

208
00:12:04,780 --> 00:12:07,460
Today I want to talk about, using this passage, I want to talk about three things.

209
00:12:07,460 --> 00:12:11,280
I want to talk about prison, prayer, and presence.

210
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,400
Prison, prayer, and presence.

211
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:21,640
Peter was thrown into prison because of his overt explanation of the gospel, the way of

212
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:22,640
Jesus Christ.

213
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:28,140
Now I discern that a majority of you, if we're thrown into prison, it's not going to be because

214
00:12:28,140 --> 00:12:31,220
we proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ.

215
00:12:31,220 --> 00:12:34,140
It's probably going to be because we were doing some things that probably were quite

216
00:12:34,140 --> 00:12:38,040
opposite of following Jesus Christ, right?

217
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:42,680
But might I suggest that there are internal prisons that we put ourselves in that render

218
00:12:42,680 --> 00:12:46,120
us incapable of delivering the gospel.

219
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:52,460
There are internal prisons that we lock ourselves up into all of the time as believers.

220
00:12:52,460 --> 00:13:00,460
We lock ourselves into these internal prisons that render us incapable of delivering the

221
00:13:00,460 --> 00:13:01,460
gospel.

222
00:13:01,460 --> 00:13:02,460
This is a place called Alcatraz.

223
00:13:02,460 --> 00:13:04,600
Has anybody heard of Alcatraz?

224
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:09,720
My buddy James and I, we were in the West Coast last year and we stopped by this island

225
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,560
and visited this place.

226
00:13:13,560 --> 00:13:14,560
And it was not fun.

227
00:13:14,560 --> 00:13:18,480
I mean, it was cool to look at, but it did not look like a place that I would want to

228
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,840
spend a substantial amount of time.

229
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,560
And if you know anything about Alcatraz, what I learned was it was considered one of the

230
00:13:25,560 --> 00:13:32,220
toughest prisons in the world and housed some of the most dangerous criminals in America.

231
00:13:32,220 --> 00:13:37,480
From what I understand, Alcatraz wasn't just a prison, but it was the prison of prisons

232
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:41,200
where prisoners were treated extremely harshly.

233
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,920
On the right, there is a sign there, which you can't probably read because of the glare,

234
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:51,520
but it says this, "Man was never intended to live as a caged animal."

235
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:55,800
Man was never intended to live as a caged animal.

236
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,960
Now I have to imagine if they're putting that type of sign up, it kind of gives you an inkling

237
00:13:59,960 --> 00:14:04,800
to how the prisoners were treated at Alcatraz.

238
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:11,780
Now can you imagine living your life stripped of all of your freedoms in that way?

239
00:14:11,780 --> 00:14:15,720
In other words, after church today, we're going to have some handcuffs and we're going

240
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:20,420
to walk you out to a car and from that point forward, you don't see your family anymore.

241
00:14:20,420 --> 00:14:23,340
You don't get to say anything about your life and what you're going to do, where you're

242
00:14:23,340 --> 00:14:24,340
going to go, what you're going to eat.

243
00:14:24,340 --> 00:14:26,920
You're going to be told those things you're going to do and you're going to live in a

244
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:32,520
little cell like this and every part of your life is going to be regimented and controlled

245
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,060
for you.

246
00:14:35,060 --> 00:14:36,300
That sounds like a nightmare.

247
00:14:36,300 --> 00:14:38,920
It sounds like a nightmare.

248
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:44,760
We were not made for prison externally and we were not created to be in a prison internally

249
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:46,840
either.

250
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,640
Internally either.

251
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:55,800
Our internal prisons will always bind us far more than the external ones.

252
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:57,520
I want to say that again.

253
00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:03,600
Our internal prisons will always bind us far more than our external ones.

254
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:09,240
So Peter is in prison and Herod is not joking about Peter being in this prison.

255
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:13,200
He's got two soldiers sleeping right next to him.

256
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,000
He's bound by two chains.

257
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,060
They got guards at the gate.

258
00:15:17,060 --> 00:15:19,680
They got guards on the outer entrance.

259
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:23,320
They're going to make sure Peter stays right where he is.

260
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:26,920
Might I suggest to you that there might be people and voices in your life that are trying

261
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:34,720
to keep you captive to the internal prison that you've created for yourself.

262
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:38,200
They want to make sure that you are under lock and key and dare I even go a step further

263
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:44,240
to say one of those voices is probably your own and it is the loudest.

264
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,020
And it is the loudest.

265
00:15:47,020 --> 00:15:53,300
The prisons that we take residence in are not prisons that we are supposed to succumb

266
00:15:53,300 --> 00:15:55,580
to or not prisons we are supposed to live in.

267
00:15:55,580 --> 00:15:58,740
We are not supposed to be slaves to our sins.

268
00:15:58,740 --> 00:15:59,740
Salvation.

269
00:15:59,740 --> 00:16:04,460
Jesus Christ came not to just save us so that we can live in eternity with him.

270
00:16:04,460 --> 00:16:09,400
He came so that we could experience abundant life now and be liberated from the clutches

271
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:10,680
of the world.

272
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:16,820
He came so that we can live in absolute freedom and not have to worry about living in the

273
00:16:16,820 --> 00:16:21,280
sin patterns that were in our in our former life.

274
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:27,400
Now you may never find yourself in an external prison but the residence of the internal prison

275
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,240
has rendered yourselves a lifelong sentence.

276
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:34,720
You have allowed yourself to say I am going to be a lifelong resident of the prison that

277
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:40,640
I've created in my internal being and God says no more.

278
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:45,840
I believe the Holy Spirit says it's time for you to come out of that cell.

279
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:50,240
It's time for you to come out of that prison and I want to tell you church today as I was

280
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,660
praying I believe that some of you are in that cell and you've been wanting to come

281
00:16:53,660 --> 00:16:54,660
out.

282
00:16:54,660 --> 00:16:59,460
You've been wanting to be liberated and I believe today is your day of liberation and

283
00:16:59,460 --> 00:17:01,460
freedom.

284
00:17:01,460 --> 00:17:04,480
Amen?

285
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:10,260
And so let's look at some of the types of prisons that we often find ourselves in.

286
00:17:10,260 --> 00:17:14,700
Has anybody ever found themselves in a prison of fear?

287
00:17:14,700 --> 00:17:17,760
Now I'm not talking about unbelievers I'm talking to the believers in the house.

288
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:24,960
The prison of fear the prison of fear says this fear says I do not make any decisions

289
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:30,960
based on my faith and hope in a loving caring God who breathes stars but I make my decisions

290
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:35,600
based on how it affects me in the moment because I'm scared of what's going to happen.

291
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:41,800
A fear-based cell taking up residence in the jail of a fear.

292
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:47,460
A fear-based lifestyle says I'm not going to trust what God has to say.

293
00:17:47,460 --> 00:17:52,160
I'm going to evaluate my circumstances and my decisions based on what's happening in

294
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:53,380
real time.

295
00:17:53,380 --> 00:17:59,600
But we know that the word says without faith it is impossible to please God.

296
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:05,180
But some of us have been living with fear in a prison of fear.

297
00:18:05,180 --> 00:18:10,200
Some of us live in a prison of doubt.

298
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,960
Doubt says I know what the word of God says.

299
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:20,020
I know the truth but I don't believe that it's actually going to happen.

300
00:18:20,020 --> 00:18:26,680
Doubt says I don't care what it looks like or sounds like or feels like I can't get my

301
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:32,520
mind around that I can actually make steps and takes actions and do things in keeping

302
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:37,160
with what I know to be true because I doubt the reality of its existence.

303
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:40,560
I doubt the reality of its truth.

304
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:47,120
Some of us are living in a prison of doubt.

305
00:18:47,120 --> 00:18:51,560
Some of us live in a prison of insecurity.

306
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:58,560
I've lived in this prison and sometimes I like to dawn the door of this prison.

307
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:02,680
Insecurity says you're not worth it.

308
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:04,040
You're not worth it.

309
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:08,200
That person who continues to tell you that they love you because they actually do don't

310
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:13,280
believe it because they really don't.

311
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:19,200
This God who says incredible things about you don't believe him because you don't know

312
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:20,480
what you've done.

313
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,840
You know where you've been.

314
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:26,080
And so you operate from a place of insecurity.

315
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:31,680
You're not secure in who you are, more importantly whose you are.

316
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:35,200
And so you live in this jail cell of insecurity.

317
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:40,380
Some of us live in a jail prison of pride.

318
00:19:40,380 --> 00:19:43,200
Pride says I don't need your help.

319
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:44,800
I don't need anybody to help me.

320
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:49,040
And what pride also says is I'm never wrong.

321
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:52,440
At least that's what I want everybody to think.

322
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:59,000
Have you ever been in an argument with someone and perpetually they are never wrong?

323
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:03,020
I've got some people in my life that I can barely count on one hand that I've ever really

324
00:20:03,020 --> 00:20:07,120
heard them say I was wrong about that.

325
00:20:07,120 --> 00:20:09,400
That's pride.

326
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:14,540
Some of us live here in this place not allowing anybody to come in because it might show some

327
00:20:14,540 --> 00:20:18,200
type of weakness.

328
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,240
Prison of pride.

329
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,320
Some of us are living in a prison of lust.

330
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,000
This doesn't have to be sexual.

331
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:31,920
Lust is anything that permeates your mind and thoughts and your actions and says I'm

332
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:36,380
gonna do whatever it takes to get what I desire in my flesh.

333
00:20:36,380 --> 00:20:39,520
Whatever it is that I desire I'm gonna manipulate the situation to get it.

334
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,920
I want it so much more than anything else that I'm thinking about.

335
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:44,840
It's constantly on my mind.

336
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,120
I am lusting toward it.

337
00:20:46,120 --> 00:20:52,160
Some of us are in prisons of lust and I believe that the Lord wants to liberate you from that

338
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:53,960
today.

339
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:58,640
Proprietate you from a prison of lust.

340
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:03,720
Some of us are contending with a prison of self-worth.

341
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:09,800
You say to yourself I don't know how in the world they would see me in that type of position

342
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:14,080
or how I could serve in that capacity because I'm not worth it.

343
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:15,320
I can't do it.

344
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,300
I'm not good enough.

345
00:21:18,300 --> 00:21:23,920
And you continually perpetually lie to yourself while everybody around you is speaking, trying

346
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:24,960
truth into your life.

347
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:26,360
You combat it with this lie.

348
00:21:26,360 --> 00:21:27,840
I'm not worth it.

349
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:29,760
I'm not worth enough.

350
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,660
And you've lived in this prison for a long time.

351
00:21:33,660 --> 00:21:38,920
Some of you struggle and are in prison of image.

352
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:43,680
Everywhere I go I'm going to make sure to control what everybody sees and hears about

353
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:44,680
me.

354
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:48,920
I'm gonna make sure that the way I present myself is the way I want it to be presented

355
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:57,120
and let my spouse or my kids say something contrary, I'm gonna be after them privately.

356
00:21:57,120 --> 00:22:01,400
We will knock everybody out of the way to make sure that this stays exactly where it

357
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:07,920
needs to be because if this is out of sorts, then again I might seem weak or I might seem

358
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:09,880
the way that I don't want people to see me.

359
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,740
A prison of image.

360
00:22:12,740 --> 00:22:17,400
Some of us have been contending and living in a prison of shame.

361
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,760
It says I have made a mistake.

362
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,680
Shame says I am the mistake.

363
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:27,960
And some of you have lived and contended for time after time, year after year, believing

364
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:33,580
that you are a mistake and that is not true.

365
00:22:33,580 --> 00:22:38,720
But you allow yourself to be confined in these prison walls and you operate from a life of

366
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,680
I am a mistake so therefore I could never be used.

367
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,120
I could never be free.

368
00:22:44,120 --> 00:22:55,880
When you're in this prison of shame, some of you are in a prison of loneliness.

369
00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:02,920
You have made up in your mind that nobody wants to be with you, around you, for you.

370
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:04,520
Nobody wants to hang out with you.

371
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:06,520
Nobody wants to be in community with you.

372
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,500
You are the exception to the rule.

373
00:23:08,500 --> 00:23:11,660
You cannot dive into community because you would be ostracized.

374
00:23:11,660 --> 00:23:12,920
You're not like everybody else.

375
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:22,040
You are in a cell of loneliness and you allow yourself to sit there all alone and isolated

376
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:27,520
and you grab a bunch of vices to soothe the pain and the hurt.

377
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:31,840
Can I tell you, you were not created to be alone.

378
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:35,040
You were not created to be alone.

379
00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:38,520
And just in case you're up there saying, "Well, phew, I got away with it.

380
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,040
He didn't put mine up there."

381
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:45,240
Some of you are in a jail of sin.

382
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:49,460
Sin is anything that separates, sin separates us from God but sin is anything that's against

383
00:23:49,460 --> 00:23:52,560
God's will.

384
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,400
It's those vices that you go after.

385
00:23:54,400 --> 00:24:00,920
It's those things, it's walking out of disobedience to the one who created you.

386
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:05,820
It's ignoring the fact that you're in active sin and acting like it's not there and hoping

387
00:24:05,820 --> 00:24:07,980
that nobody else sees it.

388
00:24:07,980 --> 00:24:11,980
You're in this jail and you're allowing it to run your life.

389
00:24:11,980 --> 00:24:15,900
You're allowing it to affect your life.

390
00:24:15,900 --> 00:24:23,420
Now this is a jail and it's pretty horrible, all of these things.

391
00:24:23,420 --> 00:24:25,200
It's not laughable.

392
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:26,200
It's horrible.

393
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:31,500
And if I am really authentic and real with you, I could say I'm contending with some

394
00:24:31,500 --> 00:24:35,160
of these things up here and I would hope that you would be honest enough to say you are

395
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:36,160
as well.

396
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:41,520
Would you raise your hand please if you believe that you have sinned in the last seven days?

397
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,640
Could you look around the church please?

398
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,660
Me too.

399
00:24:46,660 --> 00:24:52,120
Let me just say in the last hour, I probably would put my hand up as well.

400
00:24:52,120 --> 00:24:54,080
Because we are broken, the word tells us this.

401
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:59,840
The word says for the one who says he never sins, he is a liar.

402
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:00,880
He is a liar.

403
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:05,920
We need the Holy Spirit to help us not to gravitate towards sin but I'm not just talking

404
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,520
about gravitating towards sin, touching it and running away.

405
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:14,320
I'm talking about living in a prison cell of this sin.

406
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,560
Living in a prison cell where your life, how do we know?

407
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,680
We talk often about the fruit of the Holy Spirit.

408
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:23,640
How do we know that others are living in these ways?

409
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,960
Because these also yield fruit.

410
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,720
These also yield fruit.

411
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:33,160
So sometimes I can look right in your life and know you're dealing with insecurity.

412
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:34,760
You're in a prison of self-worth.

413
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:36,120
You're in a prison of image.

414
00:25:36,120 --> 00:25:37,640
You're in a prison of all of these things.

415
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,640
And it's so interesting to me church.

416
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:46,080
It's so interesting to me that the things that are on here that we don't contend with,

417
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:50,760
that we see in other people, how often we treat those people so poorly like they've

418
00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:56,920
done something so wrong because we don't understand and we can't empathize where they are.

419
00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:01,660
Instead of allowing the Holy Spirit to use us to speak truth into their lives.

420
00:26:01,660 --> 00:26:06,460
Instead of listening, I want to actually say that I believe that the Lord will bring people

421
00:26:06,460 --> 00:26:12,520
in your path who are struggling with things on this list that you don't struggle with.

422
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:16,140
Because if you empathize with them and you come from your experience, then you come from

423
00:26:16,140 --> 00:26:20,720
your flesh and you give them recommendations and advice based on you and your flesh, not

424
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:21,720
the Holy Spirit.

425
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:26,300
But let somebody come to you contending with one of these things that you're not necessarily

426
00:26:26,300 --> 00:26:27,300
contending with.

427
00:26:27,300 --> 00:26:31,840
Guess who you have to hear from to give counsel, the Holy Spirit.

428
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,980
And listen, if Hannah's dealing with something, she doesn't need to hear something from Kevin.

429
00:26:34,980 --> 00:26:36,480
She needs to hear a word from the Lord.

430
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:41,800
If Katie's dealing with something, she needs to hear a word from the God who can liberate

431
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,600
her from the cage.

432
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:51,240
She doesn't need to hear your opinion, your advice, your experience.

433
00:26:51,240 --> 00:27:01,160
She doesn't need to hear what Oprah says.

434
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:17,280
And so, and so we get in here and not only do we touch the sin, we decide to get into

435
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:22,400
the jail and not just get into the jail, because with just getting in, there's a door that

436
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,180
opens.

437
00:27:25,180 --> 00:27:30,380
We get into this thing.

438
00:27:30,380 --> 00:27:39,720
We get into this thing and we put a lock on it.

439
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:51,880
And we make sure that it is locked up and now I'm stuck.

440
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,440
And now I'm stuck.

441
00:27:54,440 --> 00:28:01,620
And here I am and when you see me, you see this.

442
00:28:01,620 --> 00:28:07,840
But on the inside is all of this.

443
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:14,560
Now how is it we can have a church this size with all of us putting our hands in the air

444
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:19,360
saying I've contended with some of this stuff.

445
00:28:19,360 --> 00:28:22,400
I'm contending with some of this stuff.

446
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:26,320
I'm in the middle of all of this stuff.

447
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:32,300
And not be ready and willing and prepared to pray for those who are in the church.

448
00:28:32,300 --> 00:28:36,280
The word says, and I don't have my clicker because I'm in jail, but you could probably

449
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,360
click it for me up there maybe.

450
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:39,360
Is that up there?

451
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,080
So Peter, the next slide now.

452
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:42,080
So it says this.

453
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:51,080
Yes, so Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him.

454
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,080
Now here's my issue.

455
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:56,960
Here's my big issue.

456
00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:01,520
The word says also, go and click the next slide, the prayer of a righteous person is

457
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,340
powerful and effective.

458
00:29:04,340 --> 00:29:05,340
Do we believe that?

459
00:29:05,340 --> 00:29:06,340
Yes or no?

460
00:29:06,340 --> 00:29:07,340
Yes.

461
00:29:07,340 --> 00:29:08,340
Okay.

462
00:29:08,340 --> 00:29:13,700
So if that is true, click the next slide, we must pray with expectation.

463
00:29:13,700 --> 00:29:15,500
See here's what happened.

464
00:29:15,500 --> 00:29:21,940
Peter gets set free from jail and he goes to the house and Rhoda goes to the door and

465
00:29:21,940 --> 00:29:23,900
she's so shocked that he's there.

466
00:29:23,900 --> 00:29:25,160
She forgets to open the door.

467
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,960
She runs back and she says, Peter's at the door.

468
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:33,500
It says that he goes to the house where they were praying for him.

469
00:29:33,500 --> 00:29:38,840
He gets to the house and they say to Rhoda, you have lost your mind.

470
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:44,840
Guys, don't pray for me unless you expect this sovereign God to move on my behalf.

471
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:50,460
If you're going to pray for me, pray as if I'm in this jail and you understand what it's

472
00:29:50,460 --> 00:29:53,160
like to be locked up and chained up.

473
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,480
I need to be set free.

474
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:56,720
You need to be set free.

475
00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:58,560
Oh, I pray for you, dear Jesus.

476
00:29:58,560 --> 00:29:59,560
I pray to you.

477
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,960
Touch them and just let them just, oh, just rest Lord.

478
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:02,960
Let just rest your, amen.

479
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:03,960
No, fervent prayer.

480
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:08,300
This is a matter of life and death.

481
00:30:08,300 --> 00:30:09,300
Do you love me?

482
00:30:09,300 --> 00:30:10,300
Are you praying?

483
00:30:10,300 --> 00:30:12,420
Do you know if you know that I'm struck, do you love me?

484
00:30:12,420 --> 00:30:13,420
I'm in jail.

485
00:30:13,420 --> 00:30:15,060
I'm in prison right now.

486
00:30:15,060 --> 00:30:18,020
God has so much for my life right now.

487
00:30:18,020 --> 00:30:22,860
Yeah, I'm in jail and you're just, bless you.

488
00:30:22,860 --> 00:30:24,820
I just thank you Lord Jesus for Kevin.

489
00:30:24,820 --> 00:30:27,780
I hope he has a good day.

490
00:30:27,780 --> 00:30:31,060
Fluff his pillow in that jail cell.

491
00:30:31,060 --> 00:30:32,460
Hope macaroni's not cold.

492
00:30:32,460 --> 00:30:40,540
Well, I mean, I need some people who love me enough that wanna see my life one, freed

493
00:30:40,540 --> 00:30:43,020
in Christ Jesus.

494
00:30:43,020 --> 00:30:49,400
The church fervently was praying for Peter, but they did not expect for Peter to be set

495
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:50,400
free.

496
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:58,520
Guys, are you praying for one another, asking the Lord, do everybody raise their hand?

497
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:05,760
And so Lord, I just, I'm asking Lord right now, in the name of Jesus, that I would be

498
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:09,280
set free from this jail.

499
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:16,360
I'm asking in the name of Jesus that somebody would be bold enough to come and set me free

500
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,640
from this.

501
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:27,760
Lord I'm asking that somebody would just have the confidence to come up on this stage.

502
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:33,440
And set me free from this cage.

503
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:38,480
I'm just praying that you would give this man the discernment to find the key on the

504
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:43,480
table.

505
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:53,600
Lord I'm asking that I be set free from this cage, that the gates of hell will not prevail

506
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:54,600
over my life.

507
00:31:54,600 --> 00:32:00,240
That I can dance over the grave that I once was in.

508
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:08,400
That I could be liberated because somebody loved me enough to hear the cry, to hear the

509
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:11,760
Lord and actually get up and do something about it.

510
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:16,000
Some of you have, the Lord has been putting people on your radar.

511
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,320
He said, you're praying, you're like, man, this person keeps coming up on my radar.

512
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:20,320
He's on my radar.

513
00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:23,320
She's on my radar.

514
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:24,320
And then, oh, I just happened to run into them.

515
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:25,320
I happened to run into them.

516
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:27,320
And you keep praying.

517
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,520
And the Lord said, shut up.

518
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:30,800
Go talk to them.

519
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,440
Stop talking to me.

520
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,640
He's put you, he's put them on your mind because here's the thing.

521
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:40,720
Guys, some of us need to do this right here.

522
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,320
I know you're not ready to come out of this jail cell.

523
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:48,120
I can't force you out, but I'm going to sit here until you do.

524
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:49,960
I'm going to labor with you.

525
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:51,600
I'm going to pray for you.

526
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:53,800
I'm going to provide encouragement to you.

527
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:57,920
You know, some of the greatest testimonies I've seen in my life are people who sat with

528
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:03,400
folks in the muck and mire knowing that Jesus could rescue them, sat with them.

529
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,900
And when they hit rock bottom, guess who they reached out to?

530
00:33:05,900 --> 00:33:08,160
The person who was sitting right next to them.

531
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:12,800
The person who didn't ostracize them or push them away.

532
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:20,160
We have to have people in our lives who are willing to pray fervently for us and sit with

533
00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:24,320
us in the middle of our cell, in the middle of our prison.

534
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:29,880
Notice I didn't get in the prison with the person, but I sat beside them.

535
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:31,640
Why?

536
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:37,320
Because I too have been in prison and I know what it's like and they'll know I don't want

537
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:38,800
you to experience that anymore.

538
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:40,960
And I've got the truth.

539
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:41,960
I've got the keys.

540
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:47,440
If you'll just give it to Jesus, if you'll just give it to the Lord, he will move in

541
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:48,620
your life.

542
00:33:48,620 --> 00:33:52,500
We are a praying church.

543
00:33:52,500 --> 00:33:54,420
In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice in the morning.

544
00:33:54,420 --> 00:34:00,060
I lay my request before you and I wait expectantly.

545
00:34:00,060 --> 00:34:02,420
This is my puppy, both of them.

546
00:34:02,420 --> 00:34:06,660
I actually have three, but these are two.

547
00:34:06,660 --> 00:34:09,200
Yesterday I left the house at nine o'clock.

548
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:11,420
I had left both of them outside in the front yard.

549
00:34:11,420 --> 00:34:12,420
I forgot about it.

550
00:34:12,420 --> 00:34:16,240
I came back three hours later and they were gone.

551
00:34:16,240 --> 00:34:19,740
Emmett, the one on the right, he's not yet trained.

552
00:34:19,740 --> 00:34:21,080
He has no idea where we live.

553
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,620
All this, that's Max, he kind of knows what he's doing, you know?

554
00:34:24,620 --> 00:34:30,540
And I got home and I thought to myself, Lord, if my girls find out that I've lost their

555
00:34:30,540 --> 00:34:34,600
puppies, I'm going to prison.

556
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:37,680
I'm going to jail.

557
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,280
And I started to pray.

558
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,860
I started to pray.

559
00:34:42,860 --> 00:34:48,080
And I texted my friend and I said, hey, listen, I lost the puppies.

560
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:49,080
Would you please pray?

561
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:50,380
And you know what his response was?

562
00:34:50,380 --> 00:34:53,020
I'm praying right now, text.

563
00:34:53,020 --> 00:34:56,600
And the next one was, they will be back.

564
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:58,920
I'm praying with expectation.

565
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:02,280
I'm not just sending you the little prayer emoji as a little courtesy.

566
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:04,780
I got your text.

567
00:35:04,780 --> 00:35:08,760
I'm not saying to you I'm praying for you, but I don't ever talk to the Lord.

568
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,700
Do you know when you say to somebody I'm praying for you and you don't pray for him, you might

569
00:35:11,700 --> 00:35:14,340
as well just look at God and say, I'm lying to you, God.

570
00:35:14,340 --> 00:35:16,760
I'm just lying to you.

571
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:20,880
Because prayer is a conduit to Jesus Christ, a conduit to the Lord.

572
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:27,040
So when I say I'm praying for you, I think the Lord's going, well, what's up?

573
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:28,400
What's up?

574
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:29,720
And guess what?

575
00:35:29,720 --> 00:35:32,060
God knows how to read emojis.

576
00:35:32,060 --> 00:35:33,640
You send those praying hands.

577
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:37,160
I think they're actually like high five hands, but we use them as praying hands.

578
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:38,160
Is that right?

579
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:39,360
I don't know.

580
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:44,780
But you know what you're meaning when you send it, right?

581
00:35:44,780 --> 00:35:48,860
The dogs came back after the girls prayed.

582
00:35:48,860 --> 00:35:52,480
They prayed with expectation and the dogs came back.

583
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:56,860
Do you believe God can do what you're asking him to do?

584
00:35:56,860 --> 00:36:04,500
Do you believe that God can do what you are asking him to do?

585
00:36:04,500 --> 00:36:11,560
The word says this, whoever conceals his transgressions will not prosper, but he who confesses and

586
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:13,880
forsakes them will obtain mercy.

587
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:17,800
Guys, can I tell you, I need mercy in my life.

588
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,860
I need mercy in my life.

589
00:36:20,860 --> 00:36:22,120
We are a praying church.

590
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:26,400
I was saying before, we pray on Wednesday mornings and the Lord had told me, he said,

591
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:31,600
if you gather the staff of the pastors will gather together and pray, then I will render

592
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,160
peace to the ministries with which they lead.

593
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:38,920
So the pastors get together and we pray for you and hear the words this past Wednesday

594
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:42,840
that the pastors and the leaders came up with to pray over this church.

595
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:46,120
The Allen said holy consecration for our body.

596
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,020
Carol said freedom.

597
00:36:48,020 --> 00:36:50,800
Will said a pursuit of righteousness, peace and joy.

598
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:55,360
Jody said a synchronizing of what's happening in each other's lives.

599
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:57,680
Dana said a deeper relationship with one another.

600
00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,880
Doug said reverence for the Lord Almighty and worship.

601
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:04,560
Sherri said families, that they would cast their burdens on him.

602
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:08,600
Jonathan said that we would be a church that prepares for his presence.

603
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:12,560
Barbie said the foundations are coming and they're gonna be strengthened in the roots.

604
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:20,060
These are words that we are praying and expecting God to move upon for you all and for us.

605
00:37:20,060 --> 00:37:22,940
We have access to a sovereign God.

606
00:37:22,940 --> 00:37:25,000
We have access to talk to a sovereign God.

607
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,080
We have an access to the liberator.

608
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:29,560
Why in the world are we not talking to him?

609
00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:33,760
I want to be one who talks more to God than talks about him.

610
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:39,560
We want to be people who are in his presence hearing his voice.

611
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,800
We wanna be in his presence hearing his voice.

612
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:45,320
So we talked about the prison, we talked about prayer.

613
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:46,720
We need to be a praying church.

614
00:37:46,720 --> 00:37:49,480
We need to be people who are praying for one another.

615
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:51,360
And the third thing is presence.

616
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,480
I'm not talking about the presence of the Lord,

617
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:58,360
though there's no better goal than to be in the presence of the Lord.

618
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:02,760
The presence I'm talking about here is presence in each other's lives.

619
00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:07,800
Because God gives us a pathway of freedom from our sin.

620
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:09,220
And you know what it is?

621
00:38:09,220 --> 00:38:10,680
It's confession.

622
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:12,960
It's confession and repentance.

623
00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:14,240
That is the pathway.

624
00:38:14,240 --> 00:38:16,200
Well, who are we confessing to?

625
00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:18,040
Well, let's see what the scripture says.

626
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:22,960
First, if we confess our sins, he, who is he?

627
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:23,800
Jesus.

628
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:27,280
Jesus is faithful and just to forgive us our sins

629
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,920
and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

630
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,600
So therefore, first of all, we're cleansed from unrighteousness.

631
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:35,720
But who in the world are we confessing our sin to?

632
00:38:35,720 --> 00:38:37,680
Confess your sins to?

633
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:38,760
Each other.

634
00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:39,600
Say it again.

635
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:40,440
Each other.

636
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:41,280
Say it again.

637
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:42,120
Each other.

638
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:43,600
Look at each other and say each other.

639
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:44,800
Each other.

640
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:48,800
Confess your sins to each other and what?

641
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:50,360
Pray for each other.

642
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:53,320
So this is what it, it doesn't say confess your sin to each other

643
00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:57,120
and then go blast them on Facebook for what they told you.

644
00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:58,640
Confess your sin to one another

645
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,280
and then text your friend, gossip, like,

646
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:02,440
they told me they did.

647
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:06,720
Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other

648
00:39:06,720 --> 00:39:07,840
so that why?

649
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:09,880
So that you may be healed.

650
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:11,800
Who needs to be healed?

651
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:12,640
Raise your hand.

652
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:15,320
Everybody in this church needs to be healed from something.

653
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,080
I wanna be healed.

654
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:18,920
Now, get those arms working.

655
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:20,480
Raise your hand again if you've sinned

656
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:21,720
in the last seven days.

657
00:39:21,720 --> 00:39:23,800
Keep 'em up.

658
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,800
Now keep your hand up if you confess that sin to somebody.

659
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:30,440
Okay.

660
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,920
Now answer this question.

661
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,040
Raise your hand if you wanna be set free.

662
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:40,520
I've just given you the pathway.

663
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:44,480
Confess your sin to one another.

664
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:46,640
Pray so that you might be healed.

665
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:48,480
Now, you don't necessarily like I did,

666
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:50,600
you don't have to be, I mean, you could

667
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:52,840
and the Lord might bless it.

668
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,240
Guys, I'm serving with the sin of fear.

669
00:39:55,240 --> 00:39:57,720
Pray for me right now, okay?

670
00:39:57,720 --> 00:40:00,400
I've got a friend in my life that I made a commitment

671
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:04,120
to him and the Lord and I said, any question he asks me,

672
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:06,000
there's no question off the table,

673
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,680
I'm gonna be completely honest and shoot straight for it.

674
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:09,520
Why?

675
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:11,320
'Cause I need somebody in my life

676
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:13,880
that I can be bare all and be completely transparent

677
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,040
no matter how hard it is because I want to walk

678
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,240
in complete freedom and healing

679
00:40:18,240 --> 00:40:20,200
and I want the mercy of God in my life.

680
00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:24,080
Do you have someone in your life

681
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,280
that you can be transparent with?

682
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:27,880
Guys, we don't need to be fake.

683
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:29,720
Everyone in this church raised their hand

684
00:40:29,720 --> 00:40:31,200
on all of these things.

685
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,360
So for us to act as if we don't have stuff to take care of,

686
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,040
stuff to walk out together, stuff to encourage one another

687
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,720
about, stuff to pray with one another, that is bogus.

688
00:40:39,720 --> 00:40:42,680
That is baloney because we all raised our hand.

689
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:47,600
And I don't want you living in destruction.

690
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:52,400
God has liberation and freedom for your life.

691
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:57,440
And how much glory does it bring God when we bare all,

692
00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:58,960
when we're vulnerable enough to say,

693
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:02,280
I'm wrong, I'm missing it here, I need his presence here.

694
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,560
Guess who gets honored and glorified in that?

695
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:06,520
The Lord Jesus Christ 'cause he's the only one

696
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:07,360
who can fix it.

697
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:12,960
Never negate the power of showing up.

698
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:17,960
If you believe somebody needs you in that moment,

699
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:19,040
this is my favorite thing.

700
00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:20,960
Have you ever been to a restaurant and the waitress,

701
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:23,720
y'all can come back out here and start playing music.

702
00:41:23,720 --> 00:41:25,920
Listen, have you ever been to a restaurant

703
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:27,520
and it's clear, okay, there's four or five

704
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,520
or six of you at the table, all the drinks are empty,

705
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:32,160
and the server comes up and says,

706
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:33,680
would you all like refills?

707
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:36,560
Has that ever happened to anybody?

708
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:41,080
My flesh wants to go, well duh.

709
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:44,480
That's my flesh, I don't say that.

710
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,880
I tip her really well, you know, or him really well.

711
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:51,320
But I'm just like, it's an obvious question, okay?

712
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:52,800
It's an obvious question.

713
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:56,960
Guys, if you see a need that somebody has,

714
00:41:56,960 --> 00:42:00,160
you see the fruit of this stuff happening,

715
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:02,920
why don't you just show up?

716
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:06,720
What does it look like for you to just show up?

717
00:42:06,720 --> 00:42:08,680
Like literally just arrive on the scene.

718
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:13,600
I know this is awkward, but I'm here

719
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,400
because I feel like the Holy Spirit's told me to come.

720
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,040
Man, anytime you put that sentence in there,

721
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:21,520
let me tell you, the Holy Spirit's gonna boom, illuminate.

722
00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:22,360
Right?

723
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:26,560
And it's not to come in like this,

724
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:30,040
I'm here because the Holy Spirit told me.

725
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:34,400
No, it's, I'm here because the Holy Spirit told me to come.

726
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:38,120
I wanna help you.

727
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:41,880
He sent me your way.

728
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:43,640
You don't have to be lonely anymore.

729
00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:48,600
You don't have to be insecure.

730
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:50,960
I'm gonna tell you I love you 5,000 times

731
00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:52,520
until you get it in your brain.

732
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:58,160
You are worth it, not because you're all that,

733
00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:00,720
it's because he's all that and he lives inside you.

734
00:43:00,720 --> 00:43:04,160
That vice you're contending with,

735
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,880
it's only leading to death, don't you see?

736
00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:10,680
Your health is declining, your bills are expanding,

737
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:13,760
you're ruining stuff all around you,

738
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:15,760
people are like, did you not see it?

739
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:17,080
I'm not going anywhere.

740
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:19,840
Or you can lay on your couch and text them

741
00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:21,640
while you're watching football, whatever.

742
00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:27,920
If the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.

743
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:32,000
If the Son sets you free, you'll be free.

744
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:35,560
In other words, when Jesus Christ opens this door,

745
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:38,640
there's no more locking it.

746
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:43,040
There's no more locking, he has opened the door.

747
00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:45,840
So for me to go in here, I'm choosing to be here

748
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:49,720
because I've been given the freedom to not live here.

749
00:43:49,720 --> 00:43:53,640
But I'm attracted to the decorations

750
00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:54,960
I put up when I lived here.

751
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:58,680
The bed felt great that I slept in when I was in here.

752
00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:02,560
And so I'm wooed back into this place

753
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,120
and I need some friends to jump on the stage

754
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:08,000
and pull me out and say, you don't belong there, Kevin,

755
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:09,080
get it together.

756
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:10,040
Come on.

757
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:17,360
He loves you and he wants you to be free.

758
00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:22,200
And he did this so that we could be free.

759
00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:28,840
So the message today is for you, for your internal prison,

760
00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:31,560
but it's also because there are people around you

761
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:36,560
who need you, who need you to listen to the Holy Spirit.

762
00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:38,920
Can you imagine finding out?

763
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:40,800
Can you imagine, I mean, I don't know if it works this way,

764
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:41,800
but just go with me for a second.

765
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:43,480
Can you imagine finding out the Lord saying,

766
00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:47,080
hey, I wanted to free that person for three years

767
00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:48,760
and you had the keys the whole time

768
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:49,600
and I just don't understand

769
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:51,240
why you didn't go unlock the gate.

770
00:44:51,240 --> 00:44:54,360
The hell that they had to experience

771
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:57,520
because you were just walking around with the keys.

772
00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,240
When I was up there praying in the prison saying,

773
00:44:59,240 --> 00:45:02,480
Lord, would somebody be confident enough, bold enough

774
00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:05,040
to come and free me from this?

775
00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:06,560
Everybody heard the same message.

776
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:08,840
Everybody had the same opportunity.

777
00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:10,480
Very few moved.

778
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:12,640
Let us not be a church where very few move.

779
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:16,920
We wanna be a church where we move

780
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:19,600
and we obey the Holy Spirit,

781
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:22,680
where Jesus can be exemplified in our life,

782
00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:24,560
where he can be acknowledged in our life,

783
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:25,880
he could be the Lord of our life.

784
00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:28,280
And remember, just like the Ananias and Sapphira story,

785
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,160
when he purifies his church,

786
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:32,080
numbers are added to the kingdom.

787
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:34,680
And I wanna see numbers added to the kingdom.

788
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:36,760
And I want us to get out of the way.

789
00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:38,000
Would you guys stand this morning?

790
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:39,080
We're gonna worship.

791
00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:41,840
Would the prayer warriors please come forward.

792
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:42,680
Now,

793
00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:48,920
I don't mean any sense of the word of manipulation in this,

794
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:49,840
but I just wanna tell you,

795
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,920
I saw every hand in this place go up.

796
00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:54,680
And so for us to walk out of here,

797
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:57,200
acting as if we didn't need to have an encounter

798
00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:59,360
or a touch or something from the Lord,

799
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,240
again, in my mind, is bogus.

800
00:46:01,240 --> 00:46:02,120
I need to be in this.

801
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:05,760
Guys, prepping for this message is horrible

802
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:08,440
'cause I get to face everything that I'm going through.

803
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:09,760
I have to come down here.

804
00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:11,160
I need to pray with some people.

805
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:12,960
I gotta be set free from some things.

806
00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:15,040
I need some liberation in my life.

807
00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:18,040
And chances are, I believe you do too.

808
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,440
And so you can choose to leave out of here,

809
00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:21,920
stay in the jail cell,

810
00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:24,480
or you can kick the door down down here.

811
00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:25,520
That's one side of the coin.

812
00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:26,680
The other side of the coin is,

813
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:28,720
some of you have been convicted this morning

814
00:46:28,720 --> 00:46:30,720
because the Lord placed the name in your life

815
00:46:30,720 --> 00:46:32,960
of somebody you know you should have been ministering to,

816
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:33,960
you should have been in their life,

817
00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:35,440
you should have been in their business, all this stuff,

818
00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:36,960
and you haven't done a thing.

819
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:37,800
Well, guess what?

820
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:40,720
You can come down here and believe for them as well.

821
00:46:40,720 --> 00:46:43,640
But I think a lot of us have some business to do,

822
00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:45,680
and we've got time to take care of business

823
00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:48,160
so we can walk out into that world

824
00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,760
lighter and freer than we've ever been.

825
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:51,600
Let's worship.

826
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:54,200
(gentle music)
