0:00to invite your attention this morning to
0:01the book of Isaiah and uh the 61st
0:04[music]
0:05chapter, the book of Isaiah, chapter 61.
0:08And I want to read just a few verses of
0:10scripture [music] here in your hearing.
0:12The word of the Lord says this, the
0:15spirit of the Lord God is upon me. And
0:17then if you'll just look at what Jesus
0:20or what what the prophet is saying.
0:21Jesus ends up repeating it later. But
0:24but notice what the prophet is saying
0:26and just [music] if you'll take in the
0:28beauty of what is being said in this
0:30passage. The spirit of the Lord God is
0:33upon me because the Lord hath anointed
0:36me to preach good tidings [music] unto
0:38the meek. He has sent me to bind up the
0:42brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to
0:45the [music] captives, and the opening of
0:47the prison to them that are bound, to
0:50proclaim the acceptable year of the
0:52Lord, and the day of [music] vengeance
0:54of our God, to comfort all that mourn,
0:57to appoint unto them that mourn in Zion,
1:00[music] to give unto them beauty for
1:04ashes, the oil of joy for [music]
1:07mourning, the garment of praise for the
1:10spirit of heaviness [music] that they
1:12might be called trees of righteousness,
1:15the planting of the Lord that [music] he
1:18might be glorified.
1:22Praise God. Such a beautiful passage and
1:24there are so many things that we could
1:27take from this text. But I would like to
1:29concentrate our attention this [music]
1:30morning on the on the statement in the
1:33first verse that simply says, "He hath
1:35sent me to bind up the brokenhearted."
1:39And I feel led [music] of the Lord to
1:40preach this morning on this subject,
1:42binding up the brokenhearted.
1:46Could we lift up our voice and ask God
1:48to bless [music] his word as it goes
1:50forth today? Lord, I pray for a special
1:53anointing both upon your messenger and
1:56upon your people today as your word goes
1:58forth. God, I pray you'll allow it to do
2:01what it is intended [music] to do, to
2:03heal and to deliver, to set free. Lord,
2:06I pray in the name of Jesus that each
2:08and every one of us would would sit
2:10together in heavenly places [music] in
2:12your precious name. God, we submit
2:14ourselves to your word, asking you to do
2:18a work in our lives, Lord. Let us never
2:20be the same but let us grow in grace
2:23today we pray in Jesus' name. [music]
2:25And the church said in Jesus name.
2:28Everybody said amen. And amen. God bless
2:31you. You may be seated [music] in the
2:33name of the Lord.
2:43In Luke chapter 4,
2:46Jesus was preparing
2:49to do something
2:52that was quite significant.
2:55He was about to announce to the world
3:01that the role of Messiah
3:06was filled and underway.
3:10This was a longawwaited
3:14promise, a long awaited fulfillment of
3:16ancient prophecies. So many prophecies
3:20had come forth. Not only were these
3:24prophecies uttered, but they were also
3:28lived out in the lives of so many people
3:31who who were living life, going through
3:36their daily routines. And the whole time
3:39because they were in covenant with the
3:41Lord, their very life was serving as an
3:45example to everyone that there is a
3:48Messiah coming and Messiah would bring
3:52hope and he would bring peace and he
3:55would bring joy and he would he would
3:58remove the bondage of death that the
4:02world had come to be so familiar with.
4:05And here Jesus in Luke chapter 4 sits
4:09and waits for the opportunity
4:11to stand up and announce
4:14that that time has come.
4:18And as he's preparing to do so and
4:21finally does stand to the occasion, he
4:23takes the ancient scroll of the prophet
4:25Isaiah
4:27and he unfolds this scroll and he begins
4:31to read. And it it seemed like a normal
4:35day at the synagogue, but he begins to
4:38read and he says, "The spirit of the
4:40Lord God is upon me because the Lord
4:44hath anointed me to preach good tidings
4:47unto the meek. He hath sent me to bind
4:48up the brokenhearted, to proclaim
4:50liberty to the captives, the opening of
4:53the prison to them that are bound, to
4:55proclaim the acceptable year of the
4:58Lord." And then he closed the book. And
5:02when he closed the book, all eyes are
5:04looking at him because they expected him
5:06to keep on reading. But he closed the
5:09book and said, "This day,
5:14>> is this scripture fulfilled in your
5:17ears?"
5:23>> You, you and I can only imagine. It's
5:26hard to fathom the the the mix of
5:28emotion that filled that room. No one
5:32had ever made such a claim.
5:35And no one had ever lived the kind of
5:39life that checked all the boxes
5:43connected to messianic prophecy.
5:46But he was born in Bethlehem of a virgin
5:51named Mary. Hallelujah. The angels
5:55announced his arrival. He had lived a
5:58life free of sin and free of iniquity.
6:03And he arrives at this place having been
6:06baptized by John in the Jordan River and
6:10explaining and exclaiming to anybody who
6:12would listen, "This day is this
6:15scripture fulfilled in your ears." And I
6:19want to I want to just kind of focus our
6:22attention to this statement. He has sent
6:25me to bind up the brokenhearted
6:29because that is indeed the great malady
6:33of the human condition,
6:36brokenheartedness.
6:38>> And it is the great
6:41disability if you please of our society
6:45and culture today. Even in our
6:48individual lives, it is the broken heart
6:52that we struggle with the most.
6:55>> There are so many reasons why it is
6:59important that our hearts are healed.
7:03There is significance associated with
7:06the heart. The Bible says this, Jesus
7:09was asked the question, "What is the
7:11great commandment?"
7:13And I don't know if they expected him to
7:15be stumped by that question. Like maybe
7:17he would have to search the rolodex of
7:20his mind and think in terms of well
7:23that's a good question. Let me give some
7:26thought to that because how do you
7:28prioritize what is the greatest of all
7:30commandments?
7:32How do you prioritize among some really
7:34good ones? Not killing, that's a good
7:36thing. Not stealing, that's a good
7:39thing. not committing adultery. That's a
7:42good thing. So, how do you how do you
7:45how do you really weigh and consider all
7:48of the great commandments? But Jesus
7:50didn't hesitate. He didn't have to weigh
7:52his thoughts. He didn't have to consider
7:54the options. He simply said it because
7:56he is the author of the law
7:59>> and he simply spoke to it and said,
8:02"Here is the greatest commandment here.
8:04Oh Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord
8:08and him only shall you serve. And hear
8:11what he said next. He said, "You shall
8:14love the Lord thy God with all thy
8:18heart, with all thy mind, with all thy
8:21soul, with all thy strength." And he
8:24said, "The second is like unto the
8:26first. Thou shalt love thy neighbor as
8:29thyself."
8:31But when he said to them, "You shall
8:33love the Lord thy God with all thy
8:36heart, mind, soul, and strength, and you
8:38shall love your neighbor as yourself,"
8:41he knew what he was talking about. He
8:43explained to them that if you can get
8:45these commands, then all of the other
8:49commands you will have kept.
8:52>> Because every single command in the word
8:55of the Lord falls into one of two
8:57categories. loving God with everything
9:00you have or loving your neighbor as
9:02yourself.
9:04>> And in order to keep the commands, you
9:07must be able to keep these two commands.
9:11But this is a tall order. In fact, it's
9:13an impossible task to love the Lord with
9:17all of your heart and with all of your
9:20mind and all of your soul and all of
9:23your strength. It is literally
9:25impossible for any one person to achieve
9:29this monumental goal of loving God with
9:34all of your heart. How do I even how how
9:39do I even harness all of my heart?
9:44Especially when you consider the fact
9:45that every one of us has had our heart
9:48to be broken before. You can't do things
9:53with a broken heart that involve a
9:56wholehearted effort.
9:58To provide a wholehearted effort to
10:00anything, it is impossible to do it when
10:03the heart itself is broken. Maybe one
10:07half of the heart will respond. But the
10:09other half has been severed from the
10:12wholeness of the heart. It becomes
10:15impossible. You have met people and
10:17maybe you yourself have been a person
10:19who has suffered from the symptoms of
10:21brokenheartedness.
10:23Brokenheartedness manifests itself in so
10:26many different ways. One of the ways
10:28that it manifests itself is in the area
10:31of a halfhearted effort.
10:35>> You've heard people say you got to put
10:37ALL YOUR HEART INTO IT. YOU'RE only
10:39giving it a half-hearted effort. Well,
10:41there's a reason why we give
10:43half-hearted efforts. Because our heart
10:45is broken somewhere. We don't know how
10:48to put our whole heart into something.
10:51So there are half-hearted efforts.
10:53You've heard the statement from the
10:55scriptures that a double-minded man
10:58is unstable in all his ways.
11:01Double-mindedness
11:03comes from brokenheartedness.
11:06Double-mindedness is a result of
11:08somebody's heart that doesn't function
11:10QUITE RIGHT. THE HEART IS NOT MEANT TO
11:13BE broken down into various categories
11:17where you love here but you hate there
11:20and and you and you you love your job
11:22but your but you neglect your family and
11:25and you love your your your career but
11:27you but you neglect your spouse. That's
11:29that's not how the that's not how the
11:31heart is supposed to work. The heart is
11:33supposed to be whole. The heart is
11:35supposed to be healed. The heart is
11:37supposed to be firing on all cylinders.
11:40All chambers of the heart are supposed
11:43to be clean and moving in the right
11:46direction. But when a broken heart
11:48exists, the heart becomes dysfunctional
11:51and becomes deformed and unable to
11:53accomplish a wholehearted effort. The
11:56Bible says out of the abundance of the
11:58heart, the mouth speaketh. So out of the
12:02abundance of the heart, THE MOUTH
12:04SPEAKETH. SO THE MOUTH BEGINS to express
12:06what's going on on the inside of the
12:08heart. That's why they say you can fool
12:11some of the people all of the time and
12:12you can fool all of the people some of
12:14the time, but you can't fool all of the
12:16people all of the time because one way
12:18or another and somewhere down the road
12:20your mouth is going to give away what's
12:23inside of your heart. You mark it down.
12:26You can be as polished as you want to
12:28be, but somewhere it's going to come out
12:31of your mouth what's really going on on
12:34the inside of your heart. So, you've met
12:36people who who talk out of both sides of
12:39their mouth. They talk out of both sides
12:42of their mouth because their heart is
12:44speaking two different things. It's a
12:47broken heart. You've met people who are
12:50double tonged. Maybe you yourself have
12:52been double tonged and and and what you
12:54mean is you'll say this here and that
12:57there. You'll you you'll make this claim
12:59when you're in this company and make a
13:01different claim when you're another
13:02company. THAT'S BECAUSE THE HEART HAS
13:04been broken somewhere and you're trying
13:07to guard in vain your heart from being
13:10broken again. You've heard of people who
13:12are two-faced. Two-faced people are
13:15brokenhearted people. These are people
13:18that have somewhere the heart stopped
13:20working on one side, one place or
13:23another. Sometime in their life, there
13:25was a laceration that left their heart
13:29incapable of producing a wholehearted
13:32effort. We even refer to sometimes uh
13:35the condition of being hardarted.
13:39Infamously, Pharaoh was hardened in his
13:42heart. Hardheartedness comes from
13:45brokenheartedness.
13:46Maybe you've even called somebody
13:48coldhearted.
13:50They're coldhearted. That's a reference
13:53to death. That's a reference to the
13:55death of feeling. That's a reference to
13:58the the paralysis of compassion.
14:02That somewhere they died. Somewhere that
14:04feeling compassionate and and loving
14:07side of them, it died along the way and
14:10they are no longer able to have a a warm
14:14heart. See, you you like warm-hearted
14:17people. How many like warm-hearted
14:20people?
14:21>> And and and we have probably just the
14:23opposite reaction to the coldhearted
14:25person. The warm-hearted reference is a
14:29reference to life. It's a reference to
14:31blood flowing. It's a reference to
14:33breath happening. It's it's a reference
14:35to the living heart. Whereas the cold
14:37heart is referring to a heart that has
14:40died somewhere along the way. But it
14:42doesn't matter what the situation was.
14:45It doesn't matter, ladies and gentlemen,
14:47if you're cold-hearted, hard-hearted,
14:49half-hearted, if you're two-faced,
14:51double tonged, doubleminded. It doesn't
14:53matter what the situation is. I've come
14:55to preach to you that Jesus Christ is
14:58here to bind up the broken hearted.
15:05[applause]
15:06I said Jesus Christ is here to bind up
15:10the brokenhearted. He specializes in
15:13binding up the brokenhearted. I remember
15:16sitting down with a man, a good man, who
15:18who was so kind and and so humble and
15:21and you you really would have never
15:23dreamed that he ever had a a situation
15:26as he was about to explain to me and
15:28express. But he began to express to me.
15:30He said, "I have a I have a situation in
15:33my past that I have never been able to
15:35get over." He was well up in years by
15:38this point. And he began to speak of a
15:40circumstance that occurred when he was
15:4211 years old. He said that his mother
15:45had entrusted to him the care of his
15:48three-year-old brother. She had to go
15:50into town to pick up some groceries. And
15:52he she said to him, she said, "I need
15:55you to watch your three-year-old
15:56brother." He said, "Mom, I don't want to
15:58watch my brother. He's he's he's going
16:00to mess my whole plan up. I was going to
16:03go down and play basketball with the
16:04guys and and uh and just go down to the
16:07park and have some fun today." And she
16:09said, "I need you to do this for me. I
16:11have to go into town. I have to get
16:13groceries. But but I need you. I can't
16:15do it unless you watch your brother."
16:17And so he did begrudgingly, but he
16:19didn't really watch him. He said, "You
16:21know what? He'll have to take care of
16:22himself cuz this is messing up my
16:23plans." So he played basketball. He was
16:2611 years old and his his little brother
16:28was three years old. And he saw him
16:30wandering around the court and going
16:32down into the field and out into the
16:33grass and over into the woods. And every
16:35once in a while he'd glance over and
16:36make sure he was all right. and he
16:38didn't see him one time, but that's all
16:39right. It's a big area. He'll be fine.
16:41And all of the sudden, there was the
16:44sound of the train that was familiar to
16:46everybody there on the basketball court.
16:48But but then the unfamiliar sound of the
16:51train coming to a screeching halt,
16:55it struck a nerve with him. It it
16:57awakened something in him. It alarmed
16:59him and he thought, "Where's my
17:00brother?"
17:01He ran to where the train was and he
17:04found his brother mangled under the
17:07train.
17:10He died that day.
17:12He told me, he said, "Brother Hersan,"
17:15he said, "Half of my heart shattered in
17:18pieces
17:20when I saw what happened to my little
17:23brother." And and I knew like nobody
17:25else knew the role I played by not being
17:28there as my mother had instructed me.
17:31He said, 'I dreaded when my mother would
17:33get to the scene because I was
17:35responsible for the death of my little
17:37brother. And my mother when she came to
17:40the scene collapsed. She went into total
17:44shock and silence.
17:46She didn't emerge from that for for some
17:49time. He said, as a matter of fact, she
17:51never recovered. He said her heart
17:54shattered into a million pieces. He
17:57said, 'When her heart shattered, the
17:59other half of my heart just died. I knew
18:02what I had done to my brother, and then
18:04I knew what I had done to my mother. I
18:05was 11 years old, and I've never ever,
18:08not to this day, have I been able to
18:10forgive myself for what happened on that
18:13day. Listen, ladies and gentlemen, you
18:15don't know what people have faced in
18:18their life. And you don't know what
18:20haunts them at night. And you don't know
18:22what kind of condemnation they struggle
18:24with. you you don't understand what
18:27broke their heart and and maybe why they
18:29suffer and struggle and maybe why
18:32they're irritable at times and maybe why
18:34they cower and why they run. But but
18:37Jesus said, "I have come. The spirit of
18:41the Lord is upon me because he hath
18:44anointed me to preach good tidings unto
18:47the meek. He hath anointed me to set at
18:51liberty them that are bruised. The
18:53spirit of the Lord is upon me because he
18:56hath anointed me to preach deliverance
18:59to the captive and yes to bind up the
19:02brokenhearted. [gasps] Hallelujah.
19:05Here's what you have to understand about
19:07Jesus. He is the heart specialist. The
19:12kind of heart that I'm preaching to you
19:14about this morning. YOU CAN'T FIND it on
19:17an ultrasound. You can Google heart
19:21specialist ALL YOU WANT. GO ahead and
19:23try heart specialist Cincinnati, Ohio.
19:26And it'll direct you to some really
19:28smart people who can do a lot of really
19:31good work, but they can't help you with
19:33the kind OF HEART THAT I'M talking to
19:35you about this morning. IT DOESN'T SHOW
19:38UP IN AN ECHO CARDIOGRAM. IT IT DOESN'T
19:42APPEAR ON AN ULTRASOUND. AN MRI
19:44[screaming]
19:45CANNOT DETECT WHAT IS wrong with this.
19:48to heart is it is an intangible. It is
19:51an invisible thing. You can't EVEN PUT
19:54YOUR [screaming] HANDS AROUND THE KIND
19:56OF HEART THAT I'VE COME TO PREACH TO YOU
19:58ABOUT TODAY. HEAR WHAT I'M TELLING YOU.
20:01IF YOU'RE HERE WITH A BROKEN HEART, YOU
20:04CAN'T FIX YOUR BROKEN HEART. YOU CAN'T
20:07SEE IT. YOU CAN'T TOUCH IT. YOU CAN'T
20:09FIND IT. AND NOBODY ELSE IN THIS
20:11BUILDING WITH THEIR NATURAL MIND CAN DO
20:14IT FOR YOU. [applause]
20:17OH, but I remember a day when Jesus
20:20stood up in the synagogue and opened UP
20:22AN ANCIENT SCROLL AND SAID, "WHEN ISAIAH
20:26SAID THAT THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD
20:28[screaming] IS UPON ME BECAUSE HE HATH
20:31SENT ME TO BIND up the brokenhearted, I
20:34want every demoniac to hear me this day.
20:38This scripture is fulfilled in your
20:40ears. I WANT EVERY WOMAN WITH AN ISSUE
20:42of blood to HEAR ME THIS DAY. THIS
20:45SCRIPTURE IS FULFILLED IN YOUR EARS. I
20:49WANT EVERY ROMAN CENTURION WHO HAS A
20:51SERVANT SICK AT HOME TO HEAR ME THIS
20:54DAY. IS THIS SCRIPTURE fulfilled in your
20:58ears?
21:02[laughter]
21:03He has come to put his hands,
21:06hallelujah, around what is broken in
21:10your mind. He has come to put his hands
21:14around what is broken in your spirit.
21:17See, you don't even know. You don't even
21:19know where to go to fix the brokenness
21:23of your heart BECAUSE YOU DON'T EVEN
21:25KNOW WHERE it broke. It broke before you
21:28were even cognizant that it was
21:30breaking. YOU YOU DIDN'T EVEN KNOW. But
21:33when you were 4 years old, there was
21:35some kind of an offense that hit you
21:38with a blunt force and a chip of your
21:40heart went flying. AND THEN AGAIN, WHEN
21:43YOU WERE 7 YEARS OLD, THERE WAS A A
21:45SWIPING LACERATION OF YOUR HEART AND
21:49ANOTHER piece of your heart fell on the
21:51ground. Maybe it fell on the playground
21:54of the school dealing with a bully.
21:56Maybe it fell upon the living room of
21:58your floor, the floor of your childhood
22:00home. WHEN SOME WELL-MEANING INDIVIDUAL
22:03SAID SOMETHING CALLOUSLY that hurt,
22:07CALLOUSLY THAT WOUNDED BECAUSE THEY WERE
22:10HAVING A bad day and it broke your heart
22:13and pieces and chips, invisible pieces,
22:17invisible chips of your heart are FLYING
22:20AND IT'S WHIDDLING AWAY AT THE HEART
22:22THAT GOD PUT INSIDE OF YOU. AMEN.
22:26>> Scripture says that I've come to take
22:28the stony heart out of your flesh and
22:31I've come to give you the heart of
22:33flesh. It's one of the few times in the
22:35scripture that the Bible refers to flesh
22:37in a positive connotation. Normally,
22:40it's dealing with the weakness of this
22:42human frailty and flesh. But the Bible
22:45says, "I'm going to give you the heart
22:47of flesh." When it talks about the heart
22:49of flesh, he's telling you, "I'm going
22:52to give you the heart. you were always
22:55supposed to have. See, the fact that
22:58it's a stony heart means that it's a
23:00hard heart. And where a heart becomes
23:02hardened is when the heart tries to fix
23:05itself. See, see, your body is an
23:09amazing thing. Did you know that when
23:11your body becomes wounded, it will
23:12immediately start trying to heal itself?
23:15Yeah,
23:15>> it's a lesson in the body of Christ
23:18because when the body of Christ becomes
23:19wounded, the body of Christ has agency
23:22within it that will begin healing
23:24immediately. There Oh, hallelujah. Oh, I
23:27feel the Holy Ghost. There are
23:29antibodies in the body that will fight
23:32infection. Hallelujah. There are CELLS
23:35IN THE BODY. AND YOU KNOW where you're
23:37going to find them? You're going to find
23:39them in the blood. I've [clears throat]
23:41come to remind somebody that there's
23:43power in the blood. [laughter] Power in
23:46the blood. WHAT KIND OF POWER YOU MAY
23:49ASK? I'LL TELL YOU WHAT KIND OF POWER.
23:52WONDER WORKING POWER [screaming] IN THE
23:54BLOOD.
23:57WOULD YOU BE FREE FROM YOUR BURDEN OF
23:59SIN? THERE'S POWER IN THE BLOOD. WOULD
24:02YOU OR EVIL A VICTORY WHEN THERE'S POWER
24:05IN THE BLOOD?
24:07>> HALLELUJAH. And your heart will try to
24:09heal itself. But listen, the
24:11unregenerated soul, the fallen NATURE OF
24:14MAN DOESN'T KNOW HOW to heal itself. And
24:17so the heart begins to try immediately
24:19to heal itself, but it heals itself the
24:21wrong way and it leaves scar tissue. And
24:24that scar tissue starts to build and it
24:27becomes hard and your heartens. And all
24:30of a sudden, the heart that used to
24:31trust doesn't trust anymore. And the
24:34heart that used to love stops loving
24:36like it once loved. and and the heart
24:38that used to be kind and compassionate
24:40starts to hold back its kindness and its
24:43compassion for fear that it will be
24:45broken again for fear that it will be
24:48lacerated again. And so the heart begins
24:51to harden. God said, "I'm going to deal
24:54with that stony heart. I'm going to take
24:57that stony heart, that hard heart out of
25:00you, and I'm going to put a heart of
25:02flesh inside of you." In other words,
25:05I'm going to remove all the scar tissue.
25:08I'm going to remove all the hardness,
25:11all the calluses that have developed
25:13over time. I'm going to remove the pain.
25:17Ah, I'm going to take away the pain.
25:20That's why you can look at somebody
25:21across the way here and they've got the
25:24worst kind of background you can
25:26imagine. THEY'VE BEEN THROUGH STUFF. YOU
25:29CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE the kind of things
25:31they've been through and the kind of
25:33problems they face. But they stand here
25:36today with open heart, LOVING WHOSOEVER
25:39WILL, WITH HANDS UP LIFTED, EYES ON THE
25:42PRIZE, SAYING HE'S WORTHY TO BE PRAISED.
25:45I TELL YOU WHAT HAPPENED. GOD TOOK THE
25:47HARDNESS OUT OF THEIR HEART AND HE
25:50REPLACED IT WITH THE HEART THEY WERE
25:52ALWAYS SUPPOSED TO HAVE.
25:56>> [applause]
25:57>> You see it in the life of non the the
26:00the captain of the host of Syria when he
26:03had leprosy covering his body and Elisha
26:06said go dip seven times in the Jordan
26:08River. When he went to dip seven times
26:10in the Jordan River, this lepous man is
26:13in the JORDAN RIVER. SIX TIMES HE WENT
26:16down into that WATER AND SIX TIMES HE
26:19CAME UP with nothing happening of any
26:21positive nature. But he was obedient and
26:24he went down the seventh time. When he
26:26came up the seventh time, I want you TO
26:29KNOW THE BIBLE SAID HE HAD THE FLESH OF
26:32A CHILD. HE DIDN'T JUST HAVE THE leprosy
26:35removed. HIS HIS WHOLE BODY WAS RESTORED
26:40TO WHAT IT WAS BEFORE THERE EVER WAS
26:42LEPROSY IN HIS BODY. HIS BODY WAS
26:45RESTORED TO before he ever had a
26:47blemish, to before he ever had acne, to
26:50before he ever had a scar, to before he
26:53ever had a pain. His flesh was restored
26:56to that OF A CHILD. GOD is going to do
26:59THAT FOR SOMEBODY TODAY. HE'S GOING TO
27:01TAKE YOU BACK TO BEFORE YOU WERE
27:04BETRAYED, TO BEFORE YOUR TRUST WAS
27:06BROKEN, TO BEFORE YOU WERE VIOLATED AND
27:10WOUNDED, BEFORE YOU WERE HATED.
27:14>> [applause]
27:15>> IS THERE SOMEBODY IN THE HOUSE OF GOD
27:17THAT KNOWS THAT WHAT I'M PREACHING IS
27:19TRUE? THAT IF YOU GIVE IT ALL TO JESUS,
27:22JESUS WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU.
27:26[applause]
27:28HALLELUJAH.
27:32HALLELUJAH.
27:35Where do I even start? Where do I even
27:38start, BROTHER JOEL? I DON'T EVEN KNOW
27:39where to start. I can't find him. He's
27:42going to he's going to pick up the
27:44pieces. You you you don't even know. Not
27:46only do you not know where the pieces
27:47went, you could go back to where you
27:49know your heart broke and you could look
27:51for the piece, but you couldn't find it
27:53because it's INVISIBLE TO YOU. IT'S NOT
27:56A TANGIBLE HEART. IT'S AN INTANGIBLE
27:59HEART. YOU CAN GO LOOK upon the mulch of
28:01that playground under the swings and
28:03near the slide, BUT YOU'LL NEVER BE ABLE
28:05TO FIND THAT PIECE of your invisible
28:08heart that broke when you were six, when
28:10you were eight. You'll never be able to
28:12go back to that day when you were 14
28:15[laughter] and try to pick up that
28:16broken piece of your heart. You'll never
28:18be able to go back to your first year of
28:20marriage and pick up those broken,
28:22shattered pieces that are broken and and
28:25laying around the living [laughter] room
28:26OF THAT HOUSE. YOU'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO
28:28GO BACK TO THAT COURTROOM. YOU'LL NEVER
28:29BE ABLE TO GO BACK TO THAT HOSPITAL
28:31ROOM. SEARCH IT IF YOU MUST, BUT YOU'LL
28:34NEVER FIND THOSE INVISIBLE, BROKEN
28:36PIECES. But there is one. There is one
28:40who can go back to every place your
28:43heart was ever broken. And he can pick
28:46up the invisible pieces. He sees them
28:49and he knows where they are. And he'll
28:51scoop them up in his hand. HE'LL PICK UP
28:54EVERY CHIP. WOO. I SAID HE'LL PICK UP
28:57EVERY CHIP.
29:02HALLELUJAH.
29:04You know, you know, if my coffee mug
29:07drops and the handle breaks off, I might
29:11be able to fix that, pastor. Just take
29:13some Gorilla Glue
29:15and just hold it. I'll just hold it.
29:18I'll just hold it for a long time.
29:20There's somebody here today that needs
29:21to just hold it. [laughter] Hallelujah.
29:24I feel like quitting. Hold it. I FEEL
29:26LIKE TURNING AROUND. HOLD IT. I FEEL
29:30LIKE I CAN'T MAKE HOLD [screaming] IT.
29:32STAND STILL AND SEE THE SALVATION OF THE
29:36LORD. BE STILL AND KNOW [screaming] THAT
29:39I AM GOD. COME ON, SOMEBODY. HOLD IT
29:42TOGETHER. HOLD IT TOGETHER. HOLD IT
29:44TOGETHER. [cheering and applause]
29:51My God. I FEEL LIKE GOD IS PUTTING HIS
29:55HANDS AROUND SOMEBODY AND HE'S just
29:57holding you.
30:00Sometimes that's not comfortable.
30:02Sometimes you feel like wiggling free.
30:04Don't wiggle free. Let him hold you
30:10because when he gets done, you're going
30:12to be whole. You're going to be fixed.
30:16>> But I might be able to put some Holy
30:18Ghost gorilla glue on it.
30:21>> I can come to church and I can hold it
30:23together.
30:26>> You know that smile? That hurts to
30:28smile.
30:32You might be able to hold it together,
30:34but where it gets difficult is when the
30:36coffee mug drops and it's not the handle
30:38that breaks off. The whole thing just
30:41shatters
30:44>> and shards of glass and and and and
30:47powder
30:49and and little little jagged edges and
30:51pieces that are literally in a million
30:53pieces now. and they're under the
30:55refrigerator and they're under the stove
30:57and they're under the table and and you
30:59don't even know where to start to put
31:01this mug back together. Oh, but Jesus
31:04said, "I am come to bind it up. I am
31:09come to put it back together." I can
31:12hear the prophet Jeremiah say, "I went
31:15down to the potter's house to watch the
31:18potter work his work upon the wheel."
31:21Hallelujah. [laughter] And when the
31:22vessel began to mar in his hand, he just
31:25began TO WORK THAT THING INTO A NEW
31:28VESSEL. I WANT YOU TO KNOW GOD KNOWS
31:31WHERE EVERY SHARD OF GLASS HAS GONE. I
31:33WANT YOU TO KNOW GOD UNDERSTANDS WHERE
31:36EVERY BROKEN PIECE OF YOUR LIFE HAS GONE
31:39AND HE'S SCOOPING IT UP. IF YOU'LL LET
31:42HIM, HE'LL SCOOP IT UP. HE'LL PULL IT
31:44ALL BACK. HE'LL SANCTIFY EVERY MEMORY.
31:48HE'LL CLEANSE EVERY THOUGHT. HE'LL CAST
31:51OUT EVERY FEAR AND HE'LL PUT [screaming]
31:53YOUR HEART BACK TOGETHER.
31:57[applause]
32:03[applause]
32:05HALLELUJAH. If you believe it, lift your
32:07hands to him all across this house.
32:10Hallelujah.
32:12Hallelujah.
32:14Come on. If you believe it, lift up your
32:16HAND AND SAY, "GOD, I need you to bind
32:18up my broken heart. I need you to FIX MY
32:22BROKEN SPIRIT. I NEED YOU TO FIX my
32:25broken heart, oh Lord."
32:30[laughter]
32:32>> Oh, hallelujah. I'm going to tell you
32:34something. God's getting ready to take
32:35the fake smile and he's going to put a
32:38genuine joy down in your soul. You may
32:42have never believed you could ever have
32:43joy again. Get ready because joy is
32:47coming. Weeping may have ENDURED FOR THE
32:51NIGHT. BUT JOY, BUT JOY, [screaming]
32:55BUT JOY. OH, BUT JOY. WHAT KIND OF JOY?
32:59UNSPEAKABLE JOY. AND FULL OF GLORY IS
33:03COMING IN THE MORNING.
33:09Unspeakable joy.

33:27broken heart, I want you [music] to

33:33house.

33:39heart,

33:42on the spot today. So, we're going to do
33:44it like this. I want two different
33:46people to come at the same time. I want
33:48those
33:50whose heart has been put back together.
33:53And I want those who need their heart
33:56put back together. I want you both to
33:58come right now. Come on. come right now
34:02in the name of Jesus. [laughter]
34:05Cuz he has come to bind up the
34:07brokenhearted. He has come. He has come
34:12to preach deliverance to the captive. He
34:14has come to set at liberty them that are
34:17bruised. He's getting ready to heal

34:23closure to things you never dreamed you
