I’ve learned that faith is contagious

you know just like you can you can get

around a bunch of negative people and

complain or if you kind of come away

kind of feeling down it’s the same way

when you get in an atmosphere of

believers like this you’re going to

catch faith and joy and peace and

victory so tonight I don’t know if

Trinity Broadcasting and Laurie crowd

thank you all pastor Joseph is going to

introduce his beautiful wife but I’m

going to do it first beautiful Wendy is

here and their daughter Jessica is on

the front row right here

pastor Joseph as you know this is his

first time in America ministering of

course they’ve been here

so

we’re so honored to have you here Joseph

and Wendy just appreciate you waiting

for the right place to come Lakewood so

that was good but we just as I said

earlier I met them in in South Africa

and just felt wow I said it on the

television earlier but I met pastor

Joseph and his wife in South Africa at a

conference and you know we just

developed a friendship and just I loved

the message of faith the message of

grace that he brings in just a simple

way I was

oh it’s visiting with him and I think

now how did he get that other scripture

I’ve read that before but you know what

God gives everybody different gifts and

so you know what I love too is they’re

building a fantastic facility over in

Singapore I think we have some pictures

of their new church there it’s

it’s not only a church building it looks

like the Jetsons doesn’t it

[Music]

not only a church building but

underneath there’s retail and a lot of

other things and it’ll be used for a

city center as well so God’s doing great

things the same god of America is the

goddess Singapore and the god of the

world is well anyway I don’t want to

take all of its time come on tell pastor

Joseph Prince for new creation

hello

[Applause]

America

love you all

love you bye

now would you be so kind as to double up

that shout for the one who gate is all

for us

About You Lord

hallelujah he’s the one all together

lovely amen

you know when Jesus is tough

he doesn’t hurt when he is kind he’s not

soft

he steel and velvet servin and King he

is altogether lovely even close

[Music]

you may be seated love you back

I want to introduce the one that loves

me all the time when I’m good and when

I’m bad

sometimes when I’m bad I’m kind of good

she’s blessed my lovely wife is here

Wendy

and she’s 17 weeks pregnant

my beautiful daughter Jessica

and she’ll be 12 years old next week you

know it’s a real honor and privilege for

me to be here I don’t say that lightly

because I know there is no lack of great

ministers of the word in America so for

Joel and Victoria to invite me is no

small thing to me I honor that I think

the sense of humility and responsibility

I’ll make sure I do do you know Joel and

I we share a lot of similarities

we have ministries of grace and hope we

have beautiful wives lovely daughters he

has a handsome boy and the doctors tell

us that 70% my next child might be a boy

but the most striking similarity between

us both is that we are both darn

good-looking

at least we’ve been sold so much for

humility are you all ready for the word

luck okay never mind John chapter 1

verse 17 my favorite scripture verse

John chapter 1 verse 17 for the law was

given through Moses but grace and truth

came through Jesus Christ the law was

given you can give from a distance I

could send a DVD of myself from

Singapore but I came grace and truth

came through Jesus Christ

the law was given to his servant grace

came through the son the law talks about

what men ought to be grace reveals who

God is in the first miracle of Moses he

turned the water into blood resulting in

death in the first miracle of grace

Jesus turned the water into wine

resulting in life and celebration under

law God demands righteousness from

sinfully bankrupt men but under grace

God provides righteousness as a gift now

which one do you wanna be under I

thought you would and yet today we have

so confused we mixed up law and grace we

have some law and some grace Jesus said

you cannot put new wine grace into the

old wineskin because the new one would

ferment and you will lose both now under

law God said now by no means pass by

your transgressions but I’ll visit your

sins to the third and fourth generation

but under grace God says I will be

merciful to your unrighteousness and

your sins I will remember

no more that’s been a change that’s been

a change Church and it’s all because of

Jesus
