Jim Bakker Show - Obeying and Knowing the Bible - Bobby Conner Aired: 2016-10-11 Duration: 04:52 === Get Back Into The Word (04:24) === [00:00:00] I'm telling you guys, we leave the Bible out of it. [00:00:03] We have no ground to stand on. [00:00:05] I'll tell you what the Bible is. [00:00:06] It's not just print on parchment. [00:00:08] It's Jesus. [00:00:10] Yes. [00:00:10] That's what it says. [00:00:11] John 1:14, and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. [00:00:15] Guys, we've got to get back into the Word of God and let the Word of God get back into us. [00:00:19] It's the only book on the planet that guarantees you success if you'll memorize it. [00:00:24] Joshua 1:8, it says, The words of this book shall not depart from your eyes. [00:00:28] You shall meditate upon them day and night, and it will guarantee you overwhelming success. [00:00:34] You might say, well, Bobby, I'm so busy. [00:00:35] I don't have time. [00:00:36] Oh, listen, take time. [00:00:38] Take time to feed upon the word of God. [00:00:40] Feed your soul. [00:00:41] Strengthen your soul with the word of God. [00:00:43] Oh, it'll help you. [00:00:44] It really will. [00:00:46] I want you to know that. [00:00:47] I got five grandchildren, and one of two oldest was just little bitty Schaefers, little bitty blonde-headed red-necked boys down there in Texas. [00:00:56] The Lord said, Bobby, I want you to teach your grandchildren the Word of God. [00:00:59] I said, Oh, that's a noble thing. [00:01:01] I want to. [00:01:01] I said, What verse do you want me to teach them? [00:01:03] He said, I want you to teach your two grandsons. [00:01:05] I want you to teach them Psalms 119, verse 9 through 11. [00:01:09] Now, when I memorize the Bible, I memorize it through the King James. [00:01:12] That's not the smartest thing to do. [00:01:14] But here's the King James: Psalms 119, verse 9 through 11. [00:01:18] Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way by taking heed according to thy word. [00:01:23] With my whole heart have I sought after thee. [00:01:25] Oh, let me not wander from thy commandments. [00:01:27] Now, let me ask you a question. [00:01:28] You think two little rednecks are going to memorize that? [00:01:31] Answer is no. [00:01:32] So listen, I could call them anywhere right now. [00:01:34] I could call them right now and say to them, Hey, how can a young person live a clean life? [00:01:38] They'll say, By obeying the Bible. [00:01:40] See, it's in the same message, but in a vernacular they can receive. [00:01:45] That's why you need to study the Bible in many different translations so you can siphon and suck out all the nectar of God. [00:01:52] Talking about ciphering, siphoning. [00:01:54] Here's your verse if you want it. [00:01:55] You want it? [00:01:56] Yes. [00:01:56] Deuteronomy 32, 13. [00:01:58] Deuteronomy 32, 13 says, God caused him, Israel, to siphon honey from the rock. [00:02:05] What in the world does that mean? [00:02:06] Siphon. [00:02:07] That means you have to put out a little effort to get the flow. [00:02:10] See, you know, I'm telling what will happen if you'll put out a little effort leaning into God. [00:02:14] He caused him to siphon honey from the rock. [00:02:17] You're going to find that honey talks about the deepest nectar of the things of God. [00:02:20] You're going to find out some of the hardest situations you face will produce the sweetest nectar of God if you'll lean into it. [00:02:27] You believe that? [00:02:29] Listen, I really meant what I was saying about the best days are to come. [00:02:32] And I want to kid if he has not asked me one thing about promoting this, but you need to seriously consider buying one of these houses they're talking about. [00:02:40] In the Bible, people ask me all the time, Bobby, what do you think about the economy? [00:02:44] What should I do with the money I have? [00:02:46] You know, should I invest in gold, silver, da, da, da, da? [00:02:49] Because listen, paper could be worthless. [00:02:52] And here's what I tell people: the Bible says, for those that are asking what to do, it says buy land, plant crops, and build houses. [00:02:59] So instead of having your money in a bank box somewhere, you ought to consider building one of these houses. [00:03:06] You say, well, I'm pretty comfortable where I am. [00:03:08] Build it for somebody else. [00:03:10] I'm telling you guys, this is something. [00:03:12] We're going to have to have these cities of refugees. [00:03:14] We really are. [00:03:15] And I'm glad you're building the guard house up there. [00:03:18] The world is getting darker, but God's the same. [00:03:21] We've got to run into God. [00:03:22] The Bible says the name of the Lord is a strong tower. [00:03:25] The righteous run into it and they're safe. [00:03:28] We need to know more about the promises of God. [00:03:30] And you find out about the promises of God in the names of God. [00:03:33] Don't you believe it? [00:03:34] Yes. [00:03:35] I like it. [00:03:35] I like the word Jehovah Shamoth, the God that's here and there. [00:03:38] Aren't you glad? [00:03:39] Yes. [00:03:40] You're not going to run to some region. [00:03:41] He's not there. [00:03:42] He's everywhere. [00:03:43] He's a God that's here and he's a God that's there. [00:03:45] And so he's got at least nine covenant reverential names, and we need to know them, don't we? [00:03:49] Yes. [00:03:49] The name of the Lord is a strong tower. [00:03:52] We need to do a study on that on this show one day. [00:03:55] Really? [00:03:55] Just all the names of God and what they mean. [00:03:57] He's Jehovah Rapha, the Lord that heals us. [00:04:00] He's Jehovah Shilom, the God that brings us peace. [00:04:03] Oh, the world is looking for peace. [00:04:05] You can't get it in a peel. [00:04:06] Here's what God told me. [00:04:07] He said, tell the people, you cannot medicate anxiety. === Casting Care Upon Him (00:42) === [00:04:11] You have to repent of it. [00:04:13] That's what he said. [00:04:14] You can't medicate anxiety. [00:04:16] You have to repent of it. [00:04:17] That's in the Bible. [00:04:18] It's Philippians 4, 6 through 8. [00:04:21] Be anxious for nothing. [00:04:22] So if we're anxious, we're doing something God says not to do. [00:04:25] He that knows to do good and does it not to him, it's sin. [00:04:28] So you can't medicate sin. [00:04:29] You have to repent of it. [00:04:30] You say, well, Bobby, you know, I've got all these emotions. [00:04:34] Psalms 55, 22. [00:04:36] Casting all of your care upon him because he certainly cares for you. [00:04:42] And the word casting there, it's a word for hammock. [00:04:45] Like a hammock? [00:04:46] Really? [00:04:47] Yeah, just run and fall into it. [00:04:50] Well, I'm not sure it'll hold me. [00:04:51] Yes, it will.
