The Invisible War | Pastor Jim Cymbala | The Brooklyn Tabernacle 동영상 대본

We are in an invisible power struggle every single day. 

우리는 매일매일 눈에 안 보이는 권력투쟁을 하는 와중에 있다 

Satan uses people to discourage, distract, and depress us. 

사탄은 사람들을 이용하여 우리를 실망하게 하고 산만하게 하며 우울하게도 한다

But God offers us His power to overcome! 

그러나 하나님께서는 우리에게 극복할 그분의 능력을 제공하신다

That’s why Paul encouraged us to put on the whole armor of God. 

그것이 왜 바울이 우리를 권면하여 하나님의 전신갑주를 입으라고 하는 이유이다

With this armor, we can stand in the Lord’s power against the schemes of the devil.

이 전신갑주를 입고, 우리는 마귀의 음모에 대항하여 주님의 능력 안에서 버틸 수 있다

someone once said it's not (what we don't know) that hurts us 

it's (what we think we know that we don't know) that really hurts us 강조용법

* what we think we know that we don't know 우리가 모르는데 안다고 생각하는 그것

0:21

 there are things we don't know that we need to learn
0:27
 but then there are things we think we know and we don't know properly
0:33
 and that's what just bites us
0:39
so I'm calling this 'The Invisible War or An Inconvenient Truth' 

the Lord, I felt, laid it upon my heart on Tuesday

and I touched on it but I want to address it from a different angle 

0:51
so when you become a Christian  there are so many blessings
0:58

 is isn't it a blessing to be a Christian?
 sins are forgiven 
you can sleep at night not because you're perfect, not because you've done great things 
but because of God's mercy through Jesus Christ

remember when you become a born- again Christian, 
1:16
 the promise comes true

their sins I will remember no more
1:23
aren't you happy for that? 
then, on top of that, the Holy Spirit comes to live inside of you
1:28
 that's what Born Again means 
not that you join the church, the Spirit joins you,
1:36
comes in your life 
what a blessing that is! 

on top of that, you have the promise through the Spirit 
1:42
I will never leave you, nor forsake you 
on top of that, will you know that your name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life 

1:48
you might not be a famous person here 
and you have your name in some list of elite people and the wealthy and forms wealthiest and all that 
1:59
that's irrelevant

the important list to be on is the Lamb's Book of Life
2:05
because in heaven, that's those are the folks who have eternal life waiting for them

in fact, we experience it now 

2:11
then we appropriate it in a fuller way in heaven 
then you have the word of God as your guide and and light and lamp 
2:18
and then the Holy Spirit makes it alive to you 
2:24
so it becomes sweeter to you than honey in the honeycomb 
it becomes more valuable than silver and gold
 it brings peace to you 

there's so many great things that happen when you become a Christian
 oh, let me name another 
2:43
you become part of the body of Christ 
you become part of the family of all believers around the world, not just here

2:50
 I've been in Bangladesh and met Christians

 I've been in different parts of Africa 

I've been in different parts of Asia, Hong Kong Taiwan ,Korea, Japan 
2:57

and all almost every country, I think, every country in South America
3:05
 and the islands of the sea and Europe and Poland 
3:11
and I was just in Slovakia and I was in Madrid, Spain 

and you're just with them five minutes, whatever language they speak, you know 

thank you Jesus for the family of God 

those are our brothers and sisters 
3:23
your biological family might unfortunately be divided in eternity,  but not your spiritual family  
3:29

 we're going to be together, forever 
do you believe that? 
say, Amen, by clapping your  hand 

3:39
It's very important

we get along here now because we're going to be together for a long time up there, right? 

those 
and look I'm leaving out all these other kind of benefits
3:56
but let's, as say in Brooklyn

let's do the real talk 
4:01

there is an inconvenient truth about an Invisible war that's going on 
that it makes what's happening in the Ukraine, that's child's play 
4:13
the stuff  in Israel and Lebanon and all of that 

that's just ,all that can do is kill your body, that's all 

ah...but there's another warfare

some Christians as I speak this and read it from the word of God
 you're  going to go, whew, yark,  yeah, that's true
4:32
some of you who have not understood it and have no revelation on it
 you're going to go, oh, wow, I've been looking at this wrong
 I never knew how serious this was
4:46
or I never knew who the enemy was 
and if you're not a Christian here today 
4:52
this going to roll off of you like a duck's back 
you're going to just go, 'I don't know what that's about

so may God give us all the understanding we need

and may God help the speaker to speak it 

5:06

the Apostle Paul the greatest Christian we know of is writing to the church in Ephesus,

which is in Southwestern Turkey
5:16
what we would call Turkey today 
and he had been there for for a long time, three years 
5:22

the longest he ever was in one place 
he founded the church, built the church, loved the people there 

5:29
and from Ephesus, people went out, his disciples that he made,

they went out and started churches other places like Colosse where we get the book Colossians 

5:37
so now he's writing to them and he's in prison himself 
that's important to remember
5:44
he's in the slammer 감옥 and there's Roman soldiers going all around him 

5:50
and the general understanding is he's looking at them as he's inspired to write this letter

which has wonderful doctrine in it 
and at the end of the letter he wants to talk about not the warfare they're doing

but the Christian warfare
6:06
he's writing to Christians 
he's including himself 
so, no matter what you've heard from anybody else
6:12
 let us be open to the word of God 
and here's how he sums up his letter 

he says, finally, summing it up
6:21
be strong in the Lord

well, wait, be strong... that means you could be weak

he wouldn't give a command of be strong unless it's possible to be weak 
so he doesn't want us to be weak 

6:34
so he says, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power

wow! 
put on the full armor of God
6:40
he probably saw a soldier 

and as he's looking at the soldier with the helmet and the breastplate and the sword 
6:48
and  the  sandals that he wore for battle and all the parts of his of his dress 
6:55
he he's now going to liken it to the Christian 

7:01
so he says, put on the full armor of God, not physical stuff 
so that you can take your stand against the devil 
7:07
now he brings in the devil's schemes
 that word schemes means  strategies, plans, plots 
7:12
because the devil knows not everything like God

he's not Omniscience 전지全知
but he knows and he has agents, knowing all of us, watching us, seeing where's our weak spot 
where are we vulnerable 

7:32
my dad took one drink and he was troubled by other things when I was 12 years old 
and 22 years later he was still an alcoholic, lost his job, beat my mother, beat me
7:39
  just messed up his own life 
never made it to my wedding 
7:47
so how'd that happen 
he used to drag me to church and teach me 

Jimmy serve Jesus 
7:56

캐파사? (que paso ; 문자 그대로는 무슨 일이 있었냐)
que paso?

what happened?  
8:02
it's about this person called the devil

if you don't believe in the devil then Jesus is a liar 

(예수님께서 있다고 하신 걸 안 믿으면 예수님을 거짓말장이로 믿는 것이다)

8:10
because Jesus talked about him a lot 

and was approached by him and tempted not just once in the wilderness 

but the Bible says, Satan waited to a more convenient season 

he tempted Jesus 
8:23
if he tempted Jesus, he's not over AED by us, like, oh I can't touch them. they're Christians 
no, that's what draws him

when you bear the name of Christ, you are become a special target 
it is what it is, Es lo que es  
8:43
well, I don't believe that

you can believe what you want
 I'm telling you what the Bible says here

opinions don't matter

it's truth
8:50
it's like saying I don't believe in gravity 
and you jump off a building 
8:55
you will learn about gravity real quick 

gravity will grab a hold of you

9:02
so put on the full armor of God

 so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes 

9:09
for our struggle is not against flesh and blood 혈육

no, no humans are our enemies 
9:16
that's part of the tricks of Satan
 he wants you to think that humans are your enemies 

9:23
no against 
oh, wait a minute, this is getting more complicated against against the rulers
9:29
 look at the hierarchy of these demonic dark spirits 

9:36
rulers against authorities, against the powers of this dark world

and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms 
so that doesn't mean in Heaven 천국
 it means in the atmosphere 공중,

9:50
in the atmosphere, there's invisible pirsits which have a hierarchy, more powerful, less powerful

also uh all reporting to Satan
9:56
 and if you say, what? you from the Middle Ages?

what do you believe?
10:02
there's like little demons around and all of that? 

I'm just reading the word of God to you 
you want to believe what God says, believe it 

if you want to deny it you you'll find out you're the loser for denying it 

10:13
the main thing that one of the Satan's great ploys is to convince us that he doesn't exist
10:19
 that's the biggest thing that there are no demonic powers and spirits
10:26
that it's all just 케세라 세라, what will be will be 

* 케세라세라(Que sera, sera)는 스페인어로 '될 대로 되라'
 it's not

we're in a war

 
10:32
Paul says we all are in a war

all Christians, pastors, missionaries, 
10:38
new believer, older believer, deacon, elder, sound person (sound engineer 음향 기술자), musician 
everybody is in this war and you can't get out 
no, but I don't want to be in it

you can't get out
10:50
it's like, you're fighting Mike Tyson when he was in this prime 
and they shove you out in the middle of the ring
10:56
and he's just waiting for you, right? 
and you go, I don't want to fight with you today 
11:06
can we just make nice?

퍽!

you can't get out of this fight 
no peace treaty 
you can't make a peace treaty 
11:12
and denying what I'm saying is to deny God and his word 
so let's listen next

therefore put on the full armor of God

everything God has for us, prayer, the word, faith, everything
11:26
 that when the day of evil comes...

now that's an interesting phrase

when the day... what is the day of  evil? 
11:33
the commentators are not in agreement 
and some say it's like the day when you get close to dying 
11:40
others say, probably more accurately, that, in life, there's seasons of attacks 
11:46
and it's like our sister was sharing 
how many have ever come under like attack in your life

 like, just you've sense it

like, everything that can go wrong will go wrong
12:02
that was a good testimony she gave from the choir, wasn't it? 
about the rats 

so every temptation, though every attack of the enemy has to be with God's permission

12:19
in other words, Satan's just not out of control 
why God permits this? 
what's the purpose of it?

we'll understand it better, by and by, obviously to draw us closer to him 
obviously to have learn to have more faith 
12:31
because he loves faith, he loves that when we're attacked we run to him

for thou oh Lord, ARE A SHIELD to me, my glory and the lifter of my head
 
12:46
he permits it for that reason 
I wish it weren't so myself 

but since it's in the Bible, we have to look at it and concentrate on it 
notice, you may be able to stand your ground and after all you've done everything, to stand

it's like a battle with weapons

13:06

 Last man standing wins 

what the enemy wants to do is knock you down 
13:12
knock your faith down 
knock my faith down, crush us, trip us up 
13:20
use any of the language 
tempt us into some mess
 and you got to remember that in tempting us to sin,

he understand Satan

that sin has power 
sin has movement 
13:33
look at me, sin has momentum
 it moves once you start it 
13:39
you just don't put up a finger and stop it 
one thing leads to another 
and then the results are catastrophic 

13:46
because, like the song says, sin will take you further than you want to go 
things that could be just start innocently or a word or a thing of anger
14:00
 oh, listen, just I heard a story in my office about a husband and wife 
the police had to be called 

14:05
it was violent cursing at each other in front of the children 
and you know how it began? 
14:12
about a misunderstanding, about how she was cooking 

because one thing leads to another
14:19
if you understand what I'm saying, say, Amen
 all you have to do is say this 

and what' you say about my cooking?
oh, yeah?
14:27
yeah my mother didn't make like that 

I don't want to hear about your mama 

well, then, this and then that 
14:33
and the next thing, it's hitting a woman

and the next thing, you know, they're calling 911 and the kids are crying 

(911은 미국에서 경찰 호출용 긴급 번호임)
14:40
and what started that, it's not about food

it's about Satan

it's about Satan 

14:46
we wrestle not against flesh and blood 

your enemy is not your husband or your wife or your mother-in-law or anybody else 
14:52
we're in a spiritual war 

if everyone could just hold steady, please

I'm getting distracted by the movement, please 

한국 같지 않아서 예배시간 중에 여러가지 이유로 나가는 사람들이 종종 있기에 가만히 있어 주라고 요청하는 말이며

찬양으로 유명한 교회라 타주나 외국의 단체 방문객도 많은데 예배시간이 2시간 이상이기에 찬양 후 설교 시간 되면

무례하게 우르르 몰려 나가는 경우도 종종있고 1시간 예상하고 왔다가 못 참고 나가는 방문객도 있기에 소란스러움

so having done everything to stand, okay
15:06
now here's just an interesting thing about this warfare 
I'm not going to go into the weapons, the helmet of salvation
15:13
breastplate of righteousness, feet having your feet Shaw with the preparation of the gospel

and the sword of the spirit which is the word of God 
but notice this one because it's important 

stand firm then,

15:26
 first thing he mentions, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist 
so as he looked at the soldier, the Roman soldiers had a belt tight, like a girdle

tight around it

15:41
kept everything connected and let the uh soldier move with agility with his sword 
15:47
the breastplate was connected 
everything was held in place by the belt of Truth 

15:53
and now he's taking physical things 

and he's likening them to important spiritual truths and blessings 
so the belt of Truth 

for us to stand against the enemy,

the first thing you have to know is the belt of Truth 
what is the belt of truth?

 it's not the truth of the Bible 진리의 허리띠는 성경의 진리를 의미하는 것이 아니다

16:16
That's the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God 성령의 검, 하나님의 말씀이 진리이다
so what is the belt of truth that all of us need every day? 

16:31
it means sincerity 진리의 허리띠는 진실함이다
a good conscience, walking in the light 
say what you mean, mean what you say 

의미하는 그것을 말하고 말하는 그것 그대로 의미하라, 즉 말과 뜻이 다르지 않게 정직하게 말하라

16:40
no mask, no covering, no lying
 the minute you lie

the minute you and I lie in word, deed or any way,

you are now moving into the territory, opening yourselves up for Satan 
because Jesus said, he's a liar from the beginning 

16:59
one of the people, groups of people, Jesus said, will end up in hell

away from him are liars, just liars, they practice lies  because God is about truth 
17:08
and in this case it means sincerity

 listen to me now
17:14
listen everyone 
sincerity and a good conscience 진실과 선한 양심
17:20
in other words you can't be a player and be strong in the Lord 
you know what a player is (바람둥이)
17:27
there're men in this city 

they're players 

they're looking for women 
17:34
and they know how to play it,

comprender, no comprender? (understand?)

and women can be players, too 

17:40
so the minute you do something,

say something that you can't say from this microphone  (마이크 잡고 말 못할 어떤 것/나쁜 것)
17:46
or you can't tell your husband or wife about 
any conversation, any any anything that  brings you into the dark 
17:53
you are now moving towards Satan
 he's the prince of Darkness 
17:59
God is a God of Light

if we walk in the light even as he is in the light 
18:05
the blood of Jesus continually cleanses us from all sin 
but you have to be in the light 

18:10
the minute you become an actor, the minute you have excuses 
18:16
or you're covering and all of that

you have now loosened the belt of Truth 
and now all hell could possibly break loose
 
18:23
I know that doesn't get a lot of amens but I love you

so I'm telling you what the Bible says 
can we all say, amen to it?
18:30
so, every temptation, right?
18:36
one guy invited my father to one office party 
and he grew up in a strict legalistic kind of church and dragged me there, too
18:45
and the minute he took one drink, that was it

because it had power to him
18:50
that he was susceptible to that 
I don't drink anything alcoholic, not because I argue with anyone who drinks wine 
18:58
hard liquor is another whole situation
 that's playing with dynamite 

if you'd like to play, play with it 
19:04
but  I don't even take wine 

not because I'm going to condemn anybody but because I don't know what's in me 

(목사님 부친이 술 중독자였기에 같은 피가 흐르는 자신도쉽게 중독될 수 있을 거라는 말임)

19:10
I'm the son of my father 
19:16
only one drink, every every alcoholic only starts with one drink

every drug addict, only gets shot up once the first time, right? 
19:23

but then you find, ooo... every gossiper only starts with one gossip
19:29
 just one, you know, she's... then it becomes it becomes an industry in your life 
19:37

the minute my dad came home and my mother said, what's that on your breath? (술냄새 난다는 말)
19:45
and my dad said, nothing 아무 것도 아냐

he's already moving now, you get it?

 how many 
how many get it?

just lift your hands

he's already now moving

he's giving place to the Prince of Darkness
19:59
because he's a liar 

Jesus said he's a liar from the beginning 
so that belt of Truth is all important 
20:08
all we can do as pastors is we can't follow you all day long

we love you so we're trying to teach you the best way we can by God's help 
20:15

what the Christian life is all about 
but you have to live it out

I can't live it out for you

I need God to live it out for me

20:27
amen? 

so we can encourage each other 
but in the end you end up all alone but you have God with you all the time
20:35
so let's go and dissect this and see if we can just tie it all up together 
for our struggle, verse 12, our struggle...
20:47
that word means there for we wrestle, in the King James, I think 
we wrestle...

20:54
notice what the warfare is like, 
hand to hand, up close close and  personal  서로 손을 잡고 밀착해서 신체접촉을 하는 레슬링 모습을 묘사함
21:00
you ever a wrestle Collegiate real wrestling 
I'm not talking about hulk H Hogan I'm talking about the the real thing 
21:08
right, you're up close and you're trying to trip and get your foot and  throw the guy down 
21:13
the guy goes down, essentially you're the winner
21:19
you're standing, it's good

that's what we're involved in 
21:24
and you know why we're special targets?

because because across our hearts it says Jesus Christ 
21:32
and Satan hates Jesus Christ
 he's anti- God, Antichrist 
so, anyone who bears the name of Jesus, you are now, I am now, a special target 
21:45
if he can hurt us, he hurts Christ because Christ loves us

we're connected to him

well, Pastor, I didn't come this afternoon to hear such a negative thing

21:57
what do you want me to tell you?

you want me to sell you the Brooklyn Bridge?

you got $100?

I'll sell you the bridge (봉이 김선달 흉내를 냄)
22:04
do you want fantasy or do we want fact?

we want truth

22:09
 that's the way it is 
but listen, we all know that we who are Christians 
22:15
you don't know Satan's approaches 

you don't know temptation

you don't know discouragement 
22:20
you don't know him trying to distract you

and get sidelined by some nonsense

and then you lose out with God because they're of nonsense

of course we all know that 

22:33
I asked you before I'm going to ask you again,

how many Christians know what it is to be involved in spiritual warfare?
22:38
come on, wave your hand at me

all right! 

here's the seriousness of it 
22:45
here's the antidote with the key to victory

our struggle is not against flesh and blood 
22:51
there's no human that's my enemy

Satan uses humans, like God uses humans
22:58
God uses people to encourage and preach the gospel and do beautiful work for the Lord 

and that those are His hands extended (하나님께서 사용하시는 신자가 하나님께서 내미신 손이다)

23:05
 Satan has people who are his hands extended

but it's not the people 
23:11
it's the Satan behind the people

there are people that God uses to encourage 
23:18
Satan sends people into your life to discourage you

you've never met a person to discourage you?  
23:24
or foul speech or angry and try to get you angry?

23:31
so the Democrats, Republicans, none of those people are our enemies

we're on the side of God 
23:38
our main enemy here is Principalities Powers, Satan, all working under Satan 
23:44
not against flesh and blood 

look, this is real, our struggle is real
23:51
he includes himself

 our struggle, we all struggle with this stuff 

23:57
it doesn't mean we don't have the victory

 doesn't mean we don't have peace and joy 

doesn't mean we can't read the Bible 
24:03
 doesn't mean we don't love to worship God 

but in the midst of all of that in life often, coming during all the days of the week 
24:08

there are temptations and assaults of the enemy

many times to our mind with suggestions that are not of God
24:17
 where does that thought come from?

I was reading in my devotional 
24:26
I do a 8 Minute devotional in case you want to start to watch it 

you can watch it by going to Brooklyn tabernacle.org

24:33
or you can watch it on YouTube

but I'm reading in Mark where Jesus tells the disciples, I got to go to Jerusalem 
24:40

I'm going to be rejected,

I'm going to be spit at

and they're going to put me on a cross 
24:47
and they're going to kill me

but on the third day I'm going to rise again

that's like our life

if we suffer with him 
24:55
we'll reign with him, right?

we just don't want to hear anything of the battle
25:00
 but please, let's be real

so he says all that the disciples are trying to take it in
25:07
 but Peter, Peter knows better

the Bible says literally he rebuked Jesus

what are you talking about,  Jesus?
25:15
you're the son, you're the Messiah

earlier in that chapter he said, I know who you are

you're the Messiah

you don't have to go through that

what are you talking about?
25:29
and then the Bible says, Jesus looked at His other disciples who he loved 
25:34
and realized the only way to save them was to go to the cross 

and he said this to Peter but he didn't use Peter's name 
25:41
He said, 'get behind me Satan, you don't care about the things of God

you just care about the things of man, saving your neck 

now,why would he call Peter Satan?

25:55
Peter wasn't demon-possessed

because the thought that Peter expressed came from Satan
26:01
 so, there's people in our lives
26:06
they say things that are satanic 

do I get an amen?

I mean where do you all live?

what do you live in the New Jerusalem?
26:12
don't you live in Brooklyn like me? 

there's a lot of stuff out there 
26:18
and there are things that happen

and Satan tries to divert us not notice him, not discern him but blame it on people 
26:25
blame it on another race, blame it on this, the cops, the politic whatever

and he's just H

so happy that we're stupid 
26:33
and we don't really see through it and say, no.

that's why the Bible says, Peter says it a lot 
26:40
stay alert

be prayerful and stay alert

what does that mean, stay alert? 
26:45
you know, when you're playing basketball, you're staying alert

you're guarding a guy

you're watching what he's doing 
26:51
you keep your eye on his belly button (손이나 발은 속임수로 움직일 수 있으나 배꼽은 몸의 중심이기에 못함)

so when he moves you're moving with him

stay alert

watch what Satan is trying to do 
26:58
because he's got schemes

he knows where you're weak 
27:04
and I'm weak, different than where you're weak

he knows that when he can ride us up to a bad temper, we're liable to do anything

other people, if they get depressed,

they're going to look for some opiate or something to opioid to drown their sorrows 

he knows everything about us
27:20
he knows how you were raised

he knows everything

he knows just where to go

27:25
and that's who we're wrestling against

we're not smart enough for him

but with God's help, we can overcome him every day and twice on Sunday 

let's say, Amen to that, come on, Amen

so let me close  (설교를 마무리할 때 쓰는 망)
27:41
look, look, this important now, look next one

therefore put on the full armor of God

that's what we have to do

put on the Lord Jesus every day

look at me 
27:52
put on the Lord Jesus every day 

갈라디아서 3:27 (KRV)

누구든지 그리스도와 합하여 세례를 받은 자는 그리스도로 옷입었느니라

don't step out of your house without saying,

'Lord, fill me with your Spirit and give me the power I need
27:59
 keep me sincere

don't let me become  an actor, and a hypocrite (연기자, 위선자)
28:05
  those are the ones the Lord had the strongest language against

people who went to the temple and seemed religious
28:17
and inside they were wolves 

keep me true 

keep me real 

what I say what I mean, mean what I say (가식하지 말고 있는 그대로 정직하게 사실을 말하라는 의미임)
28:24
put on the full arm of God

so that when the day of evil comes you may be able to stand your ground 
28:31
and after you've done everything stand

when the battle is over

28:36

I don't care who else fell down

we're going to be standing in the name of the Lord

28:43
how many want to keep standing all the way to the end? 

we're going to stand 

28:50
Pastor, you don't have to worry about that

you're a pastor

what are you kidding me?

have you lost your mind? 

28:56
many ministers and any leader get attacked more than a lay person 
29:03
read the biographies, autobiographies of great men and women of God up in my library 
29:10
attacked John Wesley,

the founder of the Methodist movement had a wife who must have been, 
they didn't know it back then, bipolar or demonically controlled,

fought him, his entire ministry 
29:24
  would give letters of his to his enemies who would then publish it in the newspapers

and Wesley stayed Christlike
29:38
and honey, I wish you wouldn't do that to the people who are trying to kill me

like yeah... like we're married, you know,
29:46
and she would go off and have temp temper tantrums

and one day when he was talking 
29:52
back in those days they wore wigs

and you know the whole thing, 1700s England

29:59
she broke into a meeting where he was talking to his Methodist cohorts

and ripped his wig off and started to beat him about the head 
30:04
and he just covered himself

30:11
attacked! 

he says in a journal one day after 15 years in Ministry 
30:16
I woke up this morning

I don't know if I know God

I feel only darkness around me 
30:21
I feel depressed 

I feel lonely 

oh, God, have mercy on me 
30:26
John Wesley 

so, if John Wesley, more importantly Paul, more importantly Jesus were all attacked

how many know we're going to have attacks?

 
30:33
it's what you do when they're attacked, when you're attacked
30:38
you're going to feel sorry for yourself 

or so one of my last words here 

this is the one, the thing we got to get over 

30:45
I meet people all the time, like this pastor

I've been a serving God about 8 years now and I don't know 
30:52
I feel like I'm attacked all the time and I just...

well, what would you think?

30:59
would you think  Satan would hand you a new testament and encourage you to sing a  Psalm? 

31:05
we get attacked

we're in warfare

could somebody say, Amen to what I'm saying  here? 
31:10
we're in warfare 
31:15
this is Satan, is one of his main guises is to make people think
31:20
it's strange that we're in spiritual warfare

you know I love God

I just don't know why...

and it is what it is 
31:30
we have warfare

Satan's behind it
31:36
trying to make us fall 

trip us, knock us down, discourage us

and until we get to heaven 
31:43
we're going to be dealing with this stuff now

when we get to heaven oh...
31:48
when we get to heaven 

see, people are teaching wrong

I think they're teaching
31:54
Christians here that today this is heaven 

and we have no problems and no attacks and just speak the word 
32:01
and that thing will not even exist, like Christian Science, like mental positivism 
32:06
you speak things into existence

you don't

God, you speak the word of the Lord

he'll give you strength

but you face what you face 
32:14
you battle

who you battle with?

some of you as Jim comes, some of you might be going through battles right now

and God brought you in here today to perk you up
32:25
and to say I'm with you 

I know you're being attacked

 I permitted the attack but I'm going to help you 
32:32
but remember this above all things

look, verse 10 ;  finally be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power

now look at this

look, be strong that means you can be weak

there are Christians who are weak 
32:46
who are a punching bag for Satan

they divide churches

they gossip, they slander, they don't fit in anywhere 
32:54
they couldn't get along with their shadows

they cannot

they are weak Christians, carnal, causing trouble every where they go
33:01
 I have dealt with a whole bunch of those over the years

they're weak 
33:06
Satan uses them sometimes more than God 

I'm not going to deny they're Christians 
33:11
but be strong, be strong, don't be weak, please

33:17
another reminder; this is all about power

be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might 
33:24
where we get the word Dynamite

weakness gets you nothing, crying gets you nothing,

feeling sorry for yourself gets you nowhere

Satan is like a lion

lions don't care 

33:39
look at me, please, balcony

he doesn't care what's sacred to you 
33:46
your relationship with God?

he'll try to destroy it

do you care about your family?

he'll rip your family aunder in a second  if he could
33:53
 money that you worked hard for?

he'll take it all from you
34:01
or if he thinks it's wiser, he'll give you more, so you'll blow up

be strong in the Lord

weakness gets nothing 
34:09
it's like, as I said earlier today, it's like an arm wrestle

you go with a guy arm wrestling 
34:16
and you both put your arm like that 

you ever seen those men?

so then the guy holds it
34:23
and he goes

if the guy has a bigger bicep and tricep plus leverage

he's going to beat me every time

34:34
no, but I'm Polish and Ukrainian 

I don't care what you are

 I know but my dad was an alcoholic
34:40
I'll slam your hand out even faster 

please listen to me, it's all about power 
34:45
he goes about like a lion

did you ever see Lions have pity on anything?
34:53
they're chasing a gazelles

the gazelles pulls up limp and it's limping so the lion can easily catch it 
34:59
 even though gazelles can outrun a lion and it comes and it's like this or it fell in a ditch 
35:07
did you ever see in any of those things where the lion comes

and goes, 'yo, man, I didn't know,  I didn't know, you were hurt, man
35:14
I would have never chased you if I knew that you had a bad leg there

* 감탄사로 쓰인 man ; 놀람을 표현
interjection /Slang. an expression‎ of surprise, enthusiasm, dismay, or other strong feeling.  

35:20
I got to get you to a doc

they got to fix that thing up
35:25
what do lions do?

that's lunch

look at me

that's how Satan is

he's looking for lunch 
35:39
and he doesn't care about feelings 

but my baby's so small and, you know, we don't have the money 
35:46
and they don't care about 

there's no mercy with him 

there's Mercy with God

 there's pity with God

and we have God on our side

let's say, Amen to that

35:59
I feel, God, you know what I'm feeling 

I feel so exercised about this today
36:05
because I want to help you and some of you got your head in the clouds 

you're not understanding what's going on in your life 

36:10
it's Satan

don't you get it?

it's not her

it's not him

it's not them 

36:21
 how can I make you understand better?

everyone's attacked

but you got to be strong because it's like this

it's power, totally power

either God gives you his power and you ever overcome the enemy 
36:35
or you're weak and now you got problems

that's it!

but notice, be strong in the Lord
36:41
 what does 'in the Lord' mean? 주 안에서라는 뜻은 다음과 같다 

in your relationship 교제, in your walking with the Lord 동행,

in your faith in Jesus 믿음, in your daily communion with him 대화

from there you're going to get strong in his mighty power 
36:53
you won't have your power, will power, meaning well, oh, I mean well... I'm... 
37:01
God knows my heart

 come on, it's about power

you either going to have, we're going to have God's power working in us 
37:07
and that's what he's offering us today 

if you've been weak and stumbling and the enemy's been getting over on you 
37:12
run to Jesus today 

he has all the power you and I could ever want 

come on, that deserves  a hand from all of us 

37:31

how can I say this carefully 

so this meeting began 
37:39
and I noticed some people that were here while the choir was going on, singing

 and couple of them stood and they were like, I don't know,

they were looking around at you, watching

one seemed to be crying, wiped away tears from his eyes and all of that

37:54
 so, I got up to preach

and the minute I started talking about sin and Satan and spiritual warfare
38:05
whoops, I be gone... 떠난다는 말

and they walked out while I was speaking 

38:12
but Satan wanted to use it to distract me

and say, the thought came to me,  
38:18
they're not listening to you

see that,  that walk right out on you 
38:24
try to like push me down in my heart

and I thought, wow, what I'm preaching about is happening right now
38:32
 I can't believe this, I can't

how many get what I'm saying?

I mean I couldn't believe it

and that's a thing a preacher goes through all the time

38:44
 you want to know what would be a preacher?

you know what people want to hear

but if you talk about something they don't want to hear
38:50
they're going to let you know about it 

dude, I don't agree with you
38:55
but I don't want you to agree with me

I want you to agree with the Bible

I'm a minister

I'm not a politician 
39:02
I don't want you to agree to vote for me 

I want you to vote for Jesus

39:10
so be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might 
39:16
that's what he has for us today

let's bow our heads, every eye closed 
39:28
singers are going to come out 

some of them are going to come out and help  me 
39:36
if we could sing that song we were singing earlier today, Jim

but one half a step lower if we could

every eye closed

if you're here today and you're like, pastor, someone said to me as I was leaving today

Pastor, you read my mail

how do you know what's going on in my life?  
40:00
I don't but the word of God does

if you're under attack, need prayer
40:07
if you're running out of juice, you need a fresh infilling of the Holy Spirit's power in your life

(juice 힘, 에너지)

remember, it's about power

and the only one who gives us power is the Holy Spirit,

pastors don't hand out power, churches don't hand out power 
40:22
God the Holy Spirit gives power 

for you will receive power when Holy Spirit comes upon you

or maybe you're going through a battle

or just you got this warm convicting feeling inside of you

God wants to help you

he loves you 

40:42
just stand up 

so I could pray for you 

and my friends could sing over you and we'll pray for you

 just anybody

 who's going through it and say that sermon was for what? me!

40:55
just stand up in the balcony, downstairs

Wherever you are are

Pastor Cimbala, I'm in warfare like
41:01
but I didn't even understand the warfare until you explained those verses in Ephesians 6
41:09
oh, God, have mercy on us and help us today,

remember, there's no compassion, there is no mercy with that enemy 
41:22
if you're thinking you can play him, he has already played you 
41:27
that's how that works 

oh, no, I'll keep this under control

no,  I'll figure this out

no, oh, wow, now he's really lying to you 

all you got to do is run to Jesus

 I know you love me, Jesus

give me not only forgiveness for any mess-ups I've had

but give me that power 
41:48
I got to be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might

I can't be weak anymore

can't be a casual church  goer 
41:55
no mas (no more)

everyone who's standing, come on, walk to the front here 
42:01
walk to the front

we're going to pray over you

God's going to do something fresh and new

come on, come down from the balcony

42:12
I'm going to wait for you

I'm not going to finish until you come down here

come on, what's more important?

not making the trip down here? 
42:19
 he made a trip to Calvary for you

I'm just saying, come on down

so we can pray

42:26
 all his lies,

rebuke those lies

talk to Jesus

everyone, talk to Jesus

43:38
come on sing loud you are you are the one that we praise 

you are the one we adore 

you give the healing and
44:02

talk to Jesus 

talk to Jesus everyone talk to Jesus 

there's Mercy with them

 thank you God for Mercy
46:45
oh much we thank you that you're full of mercy 
46:53
so Lord we come

and first thing we got to we got to get our accounts straight with you 

forgive us for our trespasses 

47:04
any unconfessed sin in this building we name it and we give it to you 
47:10
wash it away in this instant, Lord, in this very instant, wash it away as you promised

we're sorry

no excuse

we're not going to tell you a story

we're just going to to confess 
and say we're sorry

 Lord, we turn to you now 
47:34
now, Lord, moving forward, should you give us the rest of today and tomorrow whatever 

47:41
teach us

lead us and make us strong in the Lord 

not casual churchgoers but walking with you every day 
47:55
in your word, spending time

so from that communion we become strong in the Lord and in his mighty power

dispel this lie from Satan 
48:07
he has so many lies 

he's a liar 

this whole lie that we can just go to church on Sunday 
48:14
not give much thought to God 

but we're going to somehow be victorious and overcoming

dispel that, Lord

you call us to be with you, walk with you

48:26
by your grace, we're going to do it like never before, starting with me 

I want a closer walk with you, Lord
48:32
 I want to know more of your power in my life 

so that having done everything at the end of the day I will stand in the Name of Christ

and my brothers and sisters will stand 
48:43
and the precious people behind me will stand

we're going to stand

we're not going to fall

we're not going to get tripped up, knocked over

and should we trip up and lose a battle, we're going to win the war by getting up 

48:55
we're always going to get up, Lord

you're going to help us

but we understand  we're in a Invisible war 
49:10
it's very real 

help us to discern Satan and see his schemes even as you say in your word
49:17
 Paul says we're not ignorant of his devices

help us to know when he's trying to play us, trip us, tempt us, lure us, seduce us

he is our enemy, not people 

we confess that truth from your word 
49:37
we don't wrestle against flesh and blood,

Satan 
49:42
but you came to give us victory over Satan and all of his works 
49:49
and you're going to do it 

our trust is in you 

has nothing to do with our strength
49:55
has nothing to do with our power 

we have nothing to fight Satan with 

but we have everything to overcome them 
50:03
because we take your Holy Spirit Power into our lives

we're going to overcome them 
50:09
we're going to have strength and power to open the Bible 

power to pray, power to rebuke the devil 
50:14
power to pray over people, power to stand, power not to go with the crowd
50:20
 power to say no, Titus, for the grace of God

teaches us to deny ungodly lust 
50:27
teach us by your grace to say no

no, that thought is not of God 
50:36
get out of my head thought, nothing but Satan

 help us, Lord, keeping close to You

50:44
24-7, 365, all for your honor and Glory
50:51
join hands together,
50:58
 and join hands with somebody come on who would have thought that a
51:08
[Music] lamb the come on I can't hear
51:17

52:41
 escuche do not come to the 4:00 meeting
52:49
unless you have I'm going to be a greeter I can't be part of the meeting I'm going to be a greeter 
52:55

53:08

53:14
 we want to serve others today, amen
