00:00Look at what people sacrifice for earthly things that they can't keep, can't fill them up.
00:04Paul said the Olympic contenders, basically I'm paraphrasing,
00:08they'll do all these things all the time.
00:10They'll do all these things to get this wreath that's going to fade away.
00:15But he says, but we have an imperishable wreath.
00:19The point is, therefore he says, basically listen,
00:22train yourself, run in a way that you're going to win.
00:25You know, because you have something so much greater.
00:27The treasure you have is so much greater.
00:30But you've got to press for it because it means so much to you.
00:35Not everybody, and in fact most believers, I don't know that they ever fully enter into what they are called to enter in.
00:43But who are the believers who end up living in the blessings?
00:47Those who value the Word.
00:48You know, you look at some people who they always have the joy of the Lord.
00:51Or they're always just, hey yeah Lord we're going to believe in it.
00:53You know, they're the ones who are taking God's Word seriously.
00:58They're the ones who are taking, God said it, I do it.
01:02You know, God said I'm believing it.
01:04Not believing that whatever I say is going to come true.
01:06But I believe that if God said something, that's going to come true.
01:09If God tells me to do something, I'm going to do it.
01:11If God says do this and I'll be blessed, I'm going to do it.
01:14If God says do this and, and He will honor it, I'm going to do it.
01:16Treasure the ones who treasure the problem.
01:20You open up the Word of God, this is a treasure.
01:22This is a treasure.
01:23Every day I get a, I get to take a jewel from this treasure.
01:27And I take, even I take one word and I go full blast with it.
01:30God's going to honor that.
01:33Treasure it.
01:34Treasure your salvation.
01:36Every day, thank God, treasure the love of God.
01:39Treasure the fact that you have the Holy Spirit in you.
01:42That God is with you.
01:44The keys.
01:45Let's, let's kind of put this together now.
01:48Number one, Jesus, Yeshua, is salvation.
01:53Salvation, His, the name Yeshua, Jesus means salvation.
01:56He is salvation.
01:57And He is totally of heaven, totally to the earth.
02:01So salvation is, the power, the dynamic of salvation is heaven come down to earth.
02:07It's heaven touching the earth in every possible way.
02:10The Word in your life, the power of God in your life, the Spirit in your life.
02:14Take the, the dynamic walk is take the blessings of heaven and bring them down to earth.
02:18Bring them to every place in your life.
02:20Number two, what do we see this from Jesus, Yeshua?
02:23Salvation is totally God and yet it totally goes through man.
02:28It's totally God, comes from God.
02:30Everything good comes from God, totally.
02:32I can't do anything that improves that or does anything.
02:35It's there, it comes, but it's got to go totally through me.
02:38Every part of me, heart, mind, soul and strength.
02:39That's where the blessing is.
02:41That's where the dynamic walk is.
02:43Don't try to produce anything for God, but get it from God and let it, let it go.
02:49Let it flow.
02:50Let it, receive and go with it.
02:52Receive and flow with it.
02:53That's it.
02:55Number three, faith and works are not in competition or in conflict.
03:00They go together.
03:01It's not one plus one there.
03:04It's one becomes the other.
03:06Let the grace of God flows.
03:08Let your faith become an act of faith.
03:11A faith that acts upon the world.
03:14Think about the, just think about the pattern in the book of Acts.
03:17All cannot begin until the Spirit comes.
03:20Once it comes you've got all the acts in the world.
03:23Number four, it's not God, it's not either God doing something or you're doing something.
03:29People say, well you know, you have, you have some believers, everything is, you know,
03:32everything is God has to do it, I won't do it, God has to do that.
03:34Well listen, there are things that God has to do.
03:37But there's a lot of things that He's called you to do.
03:39And so there's a lot of believers who sit around, well if God doesn't, then He doesn't mean to,
03:43and, and, and they're not moving in the calling of God.
03:46God calls.
03:47That means you, He can't answer your calling.
03:50But then there are other believers who act as if it's all them and not God.
03:53I've got to do this, we've got to do this, we've got to do this, we don't do this, this.
03:55If I don't do this, I'm losing my salvation tomorrow.
03:57If I don't do this, everything falls apart.
03:58That's not the Spirit of God either.
04:01One is God, oh I'm doing it.
04:03The other is God's doing it.
04:04That's not salvation.
04:05Salvation is God doing it through you.
04:10Whatever it is.
04:11He's doing it.
04:12I mean even He's just coming into your life.
04:13That's something He's doing that's going to affect your life.
04:17It's doing it together.
04:19All from God, not you.
04:20But together, synergos, as one, one energy.
04:24Let it, start everything with God.
04:26You know, you want, you've got to do something, Lord you give me the power.
04:30You give me the love.
04:31You give me what I need to have.
04:33And you do it.
04:35Number five, stop trying to do the works of God on your own.
04:39And focus on learning the secret of becoming the work of God.
04:43Number six, if you speak of being moved by the Spirit, let yourself actually be moved by the Spirit.
04:51Meaning, don't just say, hey I was moved.
04:53That's really not, it was a great thing.
04:54Spirit moved me.
04:55If you're moved, that means you're willing to change and go and flow and move.
05:00Let your, I'm following God.
05:02Let it have it, let the Spirit have its way.
05:03Go in the Spirit.
05:04Actually do things in the Spirit.
05:06Walk in the Spirit.
05:07Talk in the Spirit.
05:08Because that, the Spirit's always flowing.
05:10Doesn't say still.
05:11Number five, number, no, number six, seven.
05:14We're already at seven.
05:15Good counting.
05:16I was just testing.
05:17Salvation is a treasure.
05:20God's love, it's all joy.
05:21The joy of God is a treasure.
05:23The love of God is a treasure.
05:24It's all a treasure.
05:25Those who treasure the treasure are going to be right with God.
05:29Are going to be right in the power.
05:31Those who, it is a treasure.
05:32So those who treasure the treasure, you're going to, you're going to have those blessings.
05:36So treasure the treasure.
05:39Number eight, God is passionate, so you be too.
05:44Live passionately about God.
05:46Live wholeheartedly.
05:47Live total.
05:48That's the only way to be blessed.
05:49Live total.
05:50Not 95%.
05:51That's not as blessed.
05:52100% is blessed.
05:54You'll mess up sometimes, but you're living 100%.
05:56You're going to be blessed.
05:58Number nine, there are blessings that take perseverance and fighting for them and laboring for them.
06:06And so do what you have to do.
06:08God tells you to do something.
06:09Clear the way.
06:10Prepare the way for the Lord.
06:11Get that thing out of the way.
06:12Do what you have to do.
06:13Persevere.
06:14Don't give up.
06:15Because some people, if they knock and they don't keep knocking, they may never get the
06:19blessing that was there on the last knock.
06:21Keep going.
06:22So many of the blessings of God come after you just kept going when you were going to give up.
06:27Don't give up.
06:28Fight for what you have.
06:29Fight for what's good.
06:30Fight for your walk.
06:31Fight for your calling.
06:32Fight for what God has for you.
06:34Keep fighting.
06:35And lastly, Paul said, I count all things as rubbish.
06:43Everything I had is garbage compared to this.
06:46That I might obtain, I might apprehend that which was given for me, that I might get the prize, that I might apprehend it.
06:58And that, press on.
07:00Persevere.
07:01Press on.
07:02It says those who keep going, those who press on, they're the ones who are going to get it all.
07:07There are those, there are those who apprehend the blessing.
07:10And, and, and, and, and, and these were those who did it.
07:14Paul did.
07:15Joshua did.
07:16He took Jericho.
07:17Ruth did.
07:18When she wouldn't give up with Naomi, she held on and said, I'm not leaving you.
07:22I'm pressing on.
07:23I'm not leaving.
07:23She's the one who got blessed.
07:25David who persevered until he got the blessing.
07:27Jacob who persevered and says, I'm not letting you go.
07:30To an, what, what chutzpah?
07:31I'm not letting you go.
07:32He's an angel.
07:33I'm not going to let you go until you bless me.
07:35That is a lot of nerve.
07:36But God honored it because he wouldn't let go.
07:40Paul said, but one thing I do.
07:42Forgetting what is behind, I press on to what is ahead.
07:46Let that be your attitude is what he says.
07:48Have the same attitude.
07:49In other words, that's going to be the dynamic believer.
07:51I believe the best things are yet to come in God.
07:54Doesn't matter what's going on in the world.
07:55Doesn't matter what's going on in the bank account.
07:57What God has, the best things are ahead.
07:59And I'm going to keep going.
08:00I'm going to keep pressing on.
08:00I'm going to keep going to the higher calling.
08:02This one thing I do, I press on.
08:06Salvation, the greatest gift, but the dynamic, the power of it comes this way.
08:10The blessings, the last point with this, the blessings are given.
08:14But the one who's going to live the most blessed life is the one who said,
08:18who puts there, her heart, his heart on the fact I am going to,
08:23I'm going to spend my life receiving this incredible blessing from God.
08:27I don't know the half of it.
08:28Whatever I know, it's not the half of how good this is.
08:31It's not the half of how powerful this is.
08:34It's not the half of how incredible this is.
