Jim Bakker Show - Resetting The Economy - Robert Henderson Aired: 2020-06-29 Duration: 05:46 === Resetting The Economy (02:25) === [00:00:00] Do you believe that we can shift the culture of economics right now? [00:00:05] Yes, I do, because I think I put it in the book on resetting the economy. [00:00:10] Yes. [00:00:10] But see, it's one thing, it's one thing to have to live in the economy of the kingdom on a personal level. [00:00:17] And we all need to learn how to do that. [00:00:19] God has actually shown me some very significant principles for us as individuals and as families to know how to get into the economy of the kingdom. [00:00:29] For instance, in the book of Philippians, the Apostle Paul said, and my God shall supply all of your need according to his riches and glory. [00:00:38] He did not say, my God's going to supply your need according to the economy of Philippi. [00:00:43] He said, my God will supply your need according to the riches that are in glory, according to the kingdom realities. [00:00:51] And see, this is, and by the way, this is what happened with the widow of Zarephath whenever the prophet came to her. [00:00:57] She lived in the economy of the kingdom while everybody else was perishing. [00:01:01] This is what happened with Isaac when he sowed in the years of famine and received a hundredfold increase. [00:01:09] And then on and on and on. [00:01:10] There's many principles in the scripture where we see this. [00:01:12] But having said that, God also calls us to reset the economy of cultures. [00:01:18] See, when his children went into Babylonian captivity in Jeremiah 29, 7, Jeremiah tells them, he says, seek the peace of the city. [00:01:30] And that's the word shalom. [00:01:32] And it involves prosperity. [00:01:34] It's not just prosperity, but it involves prosperity. [00:01:37] He said, seek the peace of the city, for in its peace you will have peace. [00:01:41] And it's amazing. [00:01:42] God is telling a bunch of foreigners in a foreign land, you have the power to determine the economy of this culture. [00:01:52] And that if you will do the right things, I will bless this culture for your sake. [00:01:57] And the entire culture will be blessed. [00:02:00] And you will get the benefit of it because I give you the right and the authority to stand before me, I believe, in the courts of heaven and see that done. === Building a House of Prayer (03:35) === [00:02:10] Yes. [00:02:11] Pastor Robert, you know, it's so powerful. [00:02:13] You bring so many key points to the economy and everything that shifts in the culture today. [00:02:21] But you talk about very strongly about building a house of prayer. [00:02:26] Can you speak on that? [00:02:27] How do we build a culture in the house of prayer that can change and shift those type of spirits in the courts of heaven? [00:02:35] That is such a critical piece, Mondo. [00:02:40] In Isaiah 56, 7, here's what he says. [00:02:43] He said, even them I will bring to my holy mountain. [00:02:47] And the holy mountain is not a geographical place. [00:02:50] It's a governmental place in the spirit. [00:02:53] And when you look at the word them, if you go through Isaiah 56, here's who them are. [00:02:59] It's the rejected ones. [00:03:04] It's the strangers. [00:03:06] It's the foreigners. [00:03:07] It's the eunuchs. [00:03:08] It's those who feel completely inadequate. [00:03:12] I'm saying, God, that's me. [00:03:15] And so he said, I'm going to bring them. [00:03:18] I'm going to bring what would seemingly be the weakest of the weak. [00:03:22] And I'm going to endow them with such a power, they're going to stand in the governmental place of the spirit. [00:03:26] And here's what he said. [00:03:28] He said, I will make them joyful in my house of prayer. [00:03:32] And then he says this. [00:03:33] He said, and their offerings, their burnt offerings, and their sacrifices will be accepted on my altar for my, it says, for my house of my house shall be a house of prayer for all nations. [00:03:48] So what God's saying there, it takes a house of prayer to be able to stand before him to represent a culture. [00:03:54] For instance, this is why Sodom and Gomorrah was destroyed. [00:03:58] God was looking for 10 righteous or a house of prayer that could represent that culture. [00:04:04] And God said, if there's just 10 that could represent the culture, they'll give me the legal right to spare it. [00:04:11] And so God is looking for a house of prayer. [00:04:13] And this is what I was telling Lori yesterday. [00:04:16] This is what I believe. [00:04:17] I believe that those that are partners with you guys, they can bind together in the spirit and they can become a house of prayer. [00:04:27] We don't realize the power of our offerings. [00:04:30] See, he says this house of prayer, it doesn't just pray, it brings an offering. [00:04:34] He says their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be accepted on my altar. [00:04:38] Because here's what happened. [00:04:39] When we bring an offering as a house of prayer, it literally releases a testimony before the Lord that does not just speak for us, but it speaks in behalf of the culture we're representing. [00:04:54] See, this is what Noah did when he came out of the ark. [00:04:58] He built an altar. [00:04:59] He offered up a sacrifice. [00:05:01] When God smelt the aroma in Genesis 8, when God smelt the aroma, the scripture says he made a judicial decree, no more curse. [00:05:10] And then he said this, watch this. [00:05:11] He said this, seed time and harvest. [00:05:13] So he released the earth from a curse and reset the economy based on the offering of Noah. [00:05:22] Because why? [00:05:23] Noah was now a governmental man. [00:05:26] He was in charge of the earth. [00:05:28] He did not just bring this offering in behalf of himself and his family. [00:05:32] He actually brought this offering in behalf of the whole earth that he was now in charge of. [00:05:38] And God says to us as a house of prayer, I give you governmental authority. [00:05:43] I want you to pray prayers. [00:05:44] I want you to stand in the gap.
