Hello friend Chaplain Terry Warner here.
00:00:23.878 --> 00:00:27.466
Hello friend, chaplain Terry Warner, here.
00:00:27.466 --> 00:00:28.602
This will be.
00:00:28.602 --> 00:00:30.868
Let the Word of God Fight for you.
00:00:30.868 --> 00:00:36.191
It's Season 5, episode 5, s5e5.
00:00:36.191 --> 00:00:41.192
It will air on February 3, 2025.
00:00:41.192 --> 00:00:49.935
Your foundation scriptures are 2 Corinthians 10, verse 4 and John 10, verse 10.
00:00:49.935 --> 00:01:06.028
For though we walk in the flesh, in other words our senses seeing, hearing, tasting, feeling and smell we do not war or fight after the flesh, our five senses.
00:01:06.028 --> 00:01:10.643
We just mentioned 2 Corinthians 10.3.
00:01:10.643 --> 00:01:20.010
I'm reading out of what I've written down, the brackets are mine 88% of all resolutions fall by the end of January.
00:01:20.010 --> 00:01:21.153
Why?
00:01:21.153 --> 00:01:26.989
Well, a lack of realistic goals and a lack of planning probably would be the top of the list.
00:01:26.989 --> 00:01:36.731
If you started this year to lose weight, stop smoking, quit cursing, you can achieve not only this goal but several others at the same time.
00:01:36.731 --> 00:01:41.668
You probably have overlooked a major requirement to meet your goal, first you are a spirit.
00:01:41.668 --> 00:01:44.210
To meet your goal, first you are a spirit.
00:01:45.031 --> 00:01:58.719
God created your spirit when you were created or made in secret, so to speak Conception, that's a better way to put it.
00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:03.706
And God brought life to your spirit when he created the world, by breathing the breath of life, or his word, into you.
00:02:03.706 --> 00:02:09.585
But living on this earth, we are unable to see the spirit man with our earth eyes.
00:02:09.585 --> 00:02:16.242
Second, our spirit has a soul that is made up of our mind, our will and our emotions.
00:02:16.242 --> 00:02:21.300
Like our spirit man, we are unable to see our soul through our earth eyes.
00:02:21.300 --> 00:02:25.692
And, last of all, our spirit and soul lives inside a body.
00:02:25.692 --> 00:02:36.165
You know, we were created by the seed of man into the womb of a woman and were born into this world and then everything in this.
00:02:36.165 --> 00:02:41.389
Once we came alive in this world, we were trained to do things.
00:02:41.389 --> 00:02:52.161
And the longer you've been trained to do something and the longer you do it after you've been trained to do something, and the longer you do it after you've been trained, the more likely, the harder it's going to be to control or readjust to do things.
00:02:52.161 --> 00:03:09.081
That's why, if you've been doing something for 20 years and you decide to stop it and you set a goal, a New Year's resolution, to set stop it, it's going to take some determination and insight and studying and paying attention to it.
00:03:09.081 --> 00:03:13.473
That's one of the hardest things about dieting You're going to lose weight.
00:03:13.473 --> 00:03:20.985
It takes a lot of effort to figure out what you can eat, what you can't eat, when for 20 years you've been eating everything you wanted to eat.
00:03:20.985 --> 00:03:28.682
If you put the kind of junk in your body that you put in your car, would your car continue to run?
00:03:28.682 --> 00:03:33.393
Well, your body is a lot more important than your car, and I digress.
00:03:33.393 --> 00:03:36.764
Anyway, you are a spirit.
00:03:36.764 --> 00:03:40.173
God created your spirit in his image and likeness.
00:03:40.173 --> 00:03:46.871
Your spirit is created in God's image, image and likeness, not your physical body.
00:03:46.871 --> 00:03:53.087
When you were born again, god recreated your spirit totally from scratch.
00:03:53.087 --> 00:03:57.121
You never existed before and you became a new person.
00:03:57.121 --> 00:04:13.068
That's why it's so easy once you and I, why it is easier to get something done once you are born again and put your rules and regulations and desires under the Bible, under Christ, under the Holy Spirit.
00:04:13.068 --> 00:04:18.771
He created the world by breathing the breath of life or his word into you.
00:04:18.771 --> 00:04:22.509
But living on this earth, you're unable to see the spirit.
00:04:22.509 --> 00:04:26.608
Man, the spirit of man communicates with God.
00:04:26.608 --> 00:04:34.250
The soul of the man communicates with the middle realm, your mind, your will, your emotions, your feelings.
00:04:34.250 --> 00:04:41.829
Finally, the body communicates with the flesh, our senses, and gives us the ability to communicate with others.
00:04:41.829 --> 00:04:45.790
When we go into outer space we have to wear a space suit.
00:04:45.790 --> 00:04:50.947
That's our body for space, but when we're on this earth we have to wear a body.
00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:56.846
Now the devil is on this earth illegally and he doesn't have a body.
00:04:56.846 --> 00:05:02.625
And so if he starts giving you trouble, stand up to him, ask him for his birth certificate.
00:05:02.625 --> 00:05:04.511
He doesn't have one.
00:05:04.511 --> 00:05:14.586
He borrowed the body of the snake to tempt Eve and got her to eat the fruit, started this whole mess.
00:05:14.586 --> 00:05:20.810
Technically I won't get into it now, but technically Adam was the first one to sin.
00:05:20.810 --> 00:05:25.108
You can write and tell me why if you get it figured out.
00:05:27.077 --> 00:05:40.047
But anyway, we are spirit, soul and body and we are tightly interwoven and overlapping and it's difficult for man to figure out who or what part is in control.
00:05:40.047 --> 00:05:44.142
Sometimes you don't know, sometimes you just flat don't know.
00:05:44.142 --> 00:06:04.927
Even if you are born again Christian, your soul is saved, but without being trained in the word of God, you will likely fall or fail your New Year's resolution because you will try and lose weight, quit smoking and stop cursing by trying to control your body through physical actions.
00:06:04.927 --> 00:06:07.115
It's not your body.
00:06:07.115 --> 00:06:08.380
Your body's been trained.
00:06:08.380 --> 00:06:10.000
That's going to be hard to break.
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:12.764
It's going to take something on a higher level than your body.
00:06:12.764 --> 00:06:21.363
It's going to take your spirit, or God's spirit working through your spirit, to turn your flesh and control your flesh around.
00:06:21.363 --> 00:06:25.386
That's why you start by renewing your mind with the Word of God.
00:06:26.636 --> 00:06:29.925
Find out what God says about your situation and do that.
00:06:29.925 --> 00:06:32.887
Find out what God says about your situation and do that.
00:06:32.887 --> 00:06:39.305
Find out what God says about your situation and say that, well, smarty pants, what do I need to do to reach my goal?
00:06:39.305 --> 00:06:44.105
Huh, this solution is so simple and yet difficult to carry through.
00:06:44.105 --> 00:06:52.665
Our soul and our senses have been trained for so long by our sense, our sense, way and our mind, will.
00:06:52.665 --> 00:07:00.302
Emotions and body have not resorted to being sinless, have not restored to being sinless.
00:07:00.302 --> 00:07:06.168
We don't know how to live and walk a sin-free life.
00:07:06.168 --> 00:07:09.622
Romans 8, 7, and 9.
00:07:09.622 --> 00:07:10.923
So how do I correct this situation?
00:07:10.923 --> 00:07:11.970
Let me see what Romans 8, 7 and 9.
00:07:11.970 --> 00:07:12.714
So how do I correct this situation?
00:07:12.714 --> 00:07:15.329
Let me see what Romans 8, 7 and 9 says.
00:07:15.329 --> 00:07:16.235
Hang on just a minute.
00:07:16.235 --> 00:07:19.786
Okay, I'm going to start in Romans 8.
00:07:19.786 --> 00:07:26.199
I'm going to start in verse 6, and this is amplified Now.
00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:38.307
The mind of the flesh, which is sense and reason, without the Holy Spirit, is death, death that compromises all the miseries arising from sin, both here and hereafter.
00:07:38.307 --> 00:07:46.449
But the mind of the Holy Spirit is life and soul, peace, both now and forever.
00:07:46.449 --> 00:07:48.540
Verse 7.
00:07:48.540 --> 00:07:58.084
That is because the mind of the flesh, with its carnal thoughts and purposes, is hostile to God, for it does not submit itself to God's law.
00:07:58.084 --> 00:07:59.706
Indeed, it cannot.
00:07:59.706 --> 00:08:16.670
So, then, those who are living the life of the flesh, catering to the appeasement, appetites and impulses of their carnal nature, cannot please or satisfy God or be acceptable to Him Verse 9.
00:08:16.670 --> 00:08:21.281
For you are not living the life of the flesh, you are living the life of the Spirit.
00:08:21.281 --> 00:08:38.143
If the Holy Spirit of God really dwells within you, directs and controls you, but if anyone does not possess the Holy Spirit of Christ, he is none of his, he does not belong to Christ, is not truly a child of God.
00:08:39.034 --> 00:08:40.019
Romans 8, 14.
00:08:40.019 --> 00:08:47.369
So you see that the spirit man is the one calling the shots, so to speak.
00:08:47.369 --> 00:09:01.682
Now we've trained our flesh to do what we want it to do Everything from potty training to tying your shoes, to buttoning your shirt, to tying your ties the way you walk, your gestures.
00:09:01.682 --> 00:09:13.719
That's all been trained, and so you get ready to stop smoking, you get ready to stop cursing, you get ready to lose weight, and you've got 20, 30, 40 years of just being trained in this.
00:09:14.539 --> 00:09:27.727
It's difficult to do, it's not impossible, but it requires a big effort and requires the help of the Holy Spirit if you want to do it and be healed.
00:09:27.727 --> 00:09:31.250
And I said healed because I'm going to switch over just a little bit.
00:09:31.250 --> 00:09:35.250
Let's say you've had a sickness for years and years and years and years.
00:09:35.250 --> 00:09:45.711
That man at the pool of Bethsaida has been laying there 38 years and he had to overcome quite a bit to get enough faith and courage to step up and walk.
00:09:45.711 --> 00:09:51.706
But after 38 years he said you know, I don't have to be here, I have control of my spirit.
00:09:51.706 --> 00:09:57.330
Man, and now I have the son of God here talking to me.
00:09:57.330 --> 00:10:03.024
He didn't know it was the son of God at the time, but I sensed I can be healed.
00:10:03.024 --> 00:10:04.005
And what did he do?
00:10:04.005 --> 00:10:05.990
He got up.
00:10:05.990 --> 00:10:08.173
He made something.
00:10:08.173 --> 00:10:11.126
He done something he had not been able to do for 38 years.
00:10:11.126 --> 00:10:16.147
He stood up and when he did the rest of the healing, came on in.
00:10:16.147 --> 00:10:17.870
And what'd they jump on?
00:10:17.870 --> 00:10:22.086
Jesus for Heal him on the Sabbath, and the man for carrying his mat.
00:10:22.807 --> 00:10:24.410
Religion will get you into trouble.
00:10:24.410 --> 00:10:27.043
It will not heal you and save you.
00:10:27.043 --> 00:10:35.004
That's Christianity A lot of people have been turned off by religion, thinking it was Christianity when it wasn't.
00:10:35.004 --> 00:10:38.110
Christianity is a way of life.
00:10:38.110 --> 00:10:40.260
Religion is a way of belief.
00:10:40.260 --> 00:10:47.429
All right, we've been doing all these right things.
00:10:47.429 --> 00:10:49.273
Well, let me back up.
00:10:49.273 --> 00:10:52.768
If your goal is being thwarted, then look.
00:10:52.768 --> 00:10:56.408
The devil comes only to kill, steal and destroy.
00:10:56.408 --> 00:11:02.624
If it kills, if it steals, if it destroys, it's the devil.
00:11:02.624 --> 00:11:05.586
Well, god's going to get some glory out of this sickness.
00:11:05.586 --> 00:11:08.783
God can't get glory out of your sickness or your infirmity.
00:11:08.783 --> 00:11:10.140
He can't get any.
00:11:10.140 --> 00:11:17.408
He doesn't have any sickness or infirmity to give you where he can get any kind of glory out of.
00:11:17.408 --> 00:11:20.750
And just because he didn't approve it, he didn't condone it.
00:11:20.750 --> 00:11:23.125
You did, but God didn't do it.
00:11:23.125 --> 00:11:26.888
God gave you power and authority to overcome the devil.
00:11:26.888 --> 00:11:27.951
And how did you do that?
00:11:27.951 --> 00:11:32.927
By the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony.
00:11:32.927 --> 00:11:39.249
And they overcame him, the devil, by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony.
00:11:39.249 --> 00:11:41.687
And they loved not their lives unto death.
00:11:41.687 --> 00:11:48.823
You tired of being sick, you tired of being infirm, you tired of laying on a sick bed, you tired of being overweight.
00:11:48.823 --> 00:11:51.142
You tired of smoking, you tired of cursing.
00:11:52.124 --> 00:11:55.490
Make a quality decision, write it down on paper.
00:11:55.490 --> 00:12:01.688
Look at yourself in the mirror every day and say I have been delivered by the power of God.
00:12:01.688 --> 00:12:06.606
Jesus Christ has healed me and made me whole and I'll not do this anymore.
00:12:06.606 --> 00:12:10.960
And let that word start building in you and building in you, and building in you and building in you.
00:12:10.960 --> 00:12:17.801
Look in that mirror when you confess that stuff you can't confess I'm sick, I'm broke, I'm tired, I'm wore out.
00:12:17.801 --> 00:12:20.967
I need your hand, I need this, I need that.
00:12:20.967 --> 00:12:24.159
You can't look in the mirror and do that truthfully.
00:12:24.260 --> 00:12:29.364
If you're a Christian, you can look in the mirror and say let the weak say I am strong.
00:12:29.364 --> 00:12:31.024
Let the poor say I am weak.
00:12:31.024 --> 00:12:33.126
Wealth and riches are in my house.
00:12:33.126 --> 00:12:35.389
Everything I set my hand to do prospers.
00:12:35.389 --> 00:12:38.390
I can live and walk in divine health and prosperity.
00:12:38.390 --> 00:12:40.893
I am more than a conqueror through Jesus Christ.
00:12:40.893 --> 00:12:43.894
I can do all things through Jesus Christ, who gives me strength.
00:12:43.894 --> 00:12:46.336
You got the idea there, I think.
00:12:47.017 --> 00:12:52.380
Put them on a mirror, put them on three by five cards.
00:12:52.380 --> 00:12:53.484
Scotch tape them to the mirror in the bathroom.
00:12:53.484 --> 00:12:54.947
Put them on your refrigerator door.
00:12:54.947 --> 00:12:59.384
Let the word of God get in there and do your fighting for you.
00:12:59.384 --> 00:13:02.953
Jesus Christ came to destroy the works of the devil.
00:13:02.953 --> 00:13:13.894
Get in line with Jesus Christ, work with Jesus Christ, work with the Holy Spirit, work with God, the Father, and you do that by reading and studying and staying in His Word.
00:13:14.500 --> 00:13:27.154
Quit watching Gunsmoke and all these other sitcoms on TV and all these commercials that are so just blatantly anti-Christianity.
00:13:27.154 --> 00:13:31.168
Well, that's not too bad a movie, mabel.
00:13:31.168 --> 00:13:33.727
There's only four or five cuss words in it.
00:13:33.727 --> 00:13:43.788
There's only two or three God this or God that in it, you know, and there's only one or two scenes of nudity, you know, and it's real minor.
00:13:43.788 --> 00:13:47.985
It's just not that bad For our era and our time.
00:13:47.985 --> 00:13:48.827
It's not that bad.
00:13:48.827 --> 00:13:50.071
I tell you what friend.
00:13:50.071 --> 00:13:53.548
Come over to the house and let me fix you some brownies.
00:13:53.548 --> 00:13:58.587
You like brownies, but let me put just a little touch of dog poop in them.
00:13:58.587 --> 00:14:00.513
Would you eat them?
00:14:00.513 --> 00:14:03.625
Well, it's just a little bit.
00:14:03.625 --> 00:14:04.568
It's not going to hurt you.
00:14:04.568 --> 00:14:07.024
You never taste it.
00:14:07.024 --> 00:14:07.967
You would never know it.
00:14:07.967 --> 00:14:10.326
You'd never know it.
00:14:10.326 --> 00:14:12.163
I'm taking it.
00:14:12.163 --> 00:14:13.067
You're getting the idea.
00:14:14.320 --> 00:14:16.749
Sin is sin and it's a detriment to you.
00:14:16.749 --> 00:14:20.470
It's a hurt to you, it's death to you.
00:14:20.470 --> 00:14:23.248
You don't want to get in on that.
00:14:23.248 --> 00:14:31.366
Defeating a fallen angel in the flesh will not work.
00:14:31.366 --> 00:14:32.450
That's the devil.
00:14:32.450 --> 00:14:33.432
He's a fallen angel.
00:14:33.432 --> 00:14:34.965
He doesn't have a body.
00:14:34.965 --> 00:14:41.427
The devil has no authority on this earth because he doesn't have a body in which to speak and order things about.
00:14:41.427 --> 00:14:55.644
You do when the devil comes around, don't tolerate him, make him get out, but you do Start speaking what Jesus said, and in doing so, jesus will drive and annihilate his presence from your life.
