Why You Can Boldly Come To God’s Throne Of Grace Today
today with Joseph Prince we're gonna
believe we are righteous what Christ has
made us to be we declare we are to say
Jesus is Lord is to say Jesus is my
let's say I I have borrowed money all
right from from Pastor Gabriel who made
the announcement just now and I borrowed
from him let's say ten thousand dollars
and I promise him I'll pay him by 1st of
April 1st of April came and went I could
not pay him so every time I see him okay
not because I hate him not because I
whatever but it starts with I I want to
avoid him why because I have debt on my
conscience the more I see him the more I
am conscious of the debt that's a story
of humanity they want to put God out of
their minds because conscience cannot
lie conscience deep down in you is
independent you try to drown it with
your your your drink your alcohol and
and drugs and all that is still there
wherever you go your conscience goes
amen your conscience is the part when
Adam took the three of the fruit of the
tree of knowledge of good and evil men
had a conscience amen and and you can't
run away from your conscience you can
try to drown it date on it it's still
there okay it might be wait but the
voice is still there and it tells you
what is right it tells you what is wrong
amen so uh men try to avoid God because
they know they have debt on their
conscience but what if I tell you that
someone came to me right and told me
that they have paid my debt all right
instead of ten thousand dollars which I
owed Pastor Gabriel someone came and
paid one million to Pastor Gabriel all
right for my debt now Pastor Gabriel has
become a Gainer because of me so next
time when I see him will I have debt on
my conscience no way I'll say hey come
on man give me a treat right I'm not
afraid to approach him anymore so
likewise Jesus is an overpayment because
of the value of that one man you know
he's an overpayment he's like a one
million dollar a payment for a ten
thousand dollar debt amen that's why the
Bible says we have much more much more
in our our Christian life now because of
what Jesus did praise God so we should
by all depends on the messenger who came
and tell me you know how how clearly how
how completely he shares the message
it's vital he comes and say well
somebody paid your debt like some money
like they get some money uh I think you
owed to pass the table or something
right uh and and someone paid something
and unfortunately that's the message
that a lot of people hear from preachers
uh we are forgiven yet we're not
forgiven but we are forgiven you'll make
it but you gotta be careful
you know they kind of it's not clear
it's not a a loud Clarion call of good
news preaching the Good News the good
news is that your sins are forgiven amen
because of that one man not because
you're good or bad or ugly amen
don't look around I'm just happening to
you know to say that kind of thing
because it it is a a western Trinity
last time the Good the Bad and the Ugly
God wants you to know that he's he's got
nothing against you come home amen the
son paid for everything can I have a
now that you are mid-righteous because
not because of who you are all right
when you were a sinner nothing good you
do can make you a good man
because when you pile up your your
Badness outweighs your goodness you're
still because the factory is wrong when
you're born again you are the
righteousness of God in Christ you might
do wrong it doesn't Define you
but it doesn't Define you you are still
the righteousness of God in Christ
amen amen a butterfly once he was a
caterpillar then he got born again okay
like a picture born now he's a butterfly
sometimes a butterfly may fall among
the rubbish hip he does not become
it does not transform back into a
caterpillar because he fell among Rabbi
ship he's still a butterfly
that fell among rubbishop
you understand okay a gold bar the value
of gold by the go by the gold bar right
but if it is thrown among the rubbish
can and all that and it's defiled and
all that it's still a gold bar the value
is still there you understand that's how
step into the life of unshakable Faith
the Lord has called you to live with
Joseph's book Unstoppable Faith be
encouraged daily by powerful truths and
scriptures about faith start overcoming
life's challenges as you own God's
promises for your life request your copy
today offer available to US and Canada
when you sin all right now I'm not
encouraging sin of course all right but
I'm telling that you must understand
it's independent of your actions once
you know you are the righteousness of
God in Christ and you declare it you see
Miracles happening in your life I've got
testimonies of testimonies you know read
all about it in my books as well as also
on josephprince.com you can go to the
website and look at all the testimonials
the letters of people who are in bondage
the other day I was reading about a guy
who was a hook on drugs in America and
uh and all kinds of vices they share the
two or three vices they was in and he
says that there's no way he tried his
best to stop it he cannot and then he
got hold of my teachings and he started
declaring after he's safe I am the
righteousness of God in Christ notice
that all right the confession is in line
with what God has made him amen he's
going to confess things at first it
became worse but then all of a sudden
one day he said his drug Supply stop
and not only that he woke up one day and
realized hey there was no withdrawal God
had delivered him he didn't even know
about it amen and he says that right now
he's sharing the good news with as many
people as possible so we are seeing a
manner writing in saying that while they
are watching pornography they are
confessing I am the righteousness of God
in Christ and guess what many of them
had got delivered from pornography and
and pastors and leaders are trying to
find a way to help people out of this
addiction out of this bondage and many
men are in this bondage and it is a
bondage don't don't say I can stop any
time okay people smoke for example you
can say I can stop anytime but they
can't and the best way out of it the
only way out of it is to acknowledge you
amen and you confess I'm the
righteousness of God in Christ where the
devil wants you convinced that you are
dirty you are filthy all right and the
fact that you're doing this now you are
filthy you are dirty and the more you
confess that the more you see yourself
as that the more you're in this
abomination of condemning yourself and
all that you'll never get out of
pornography I'm sure you the way out
and there are those who accuse me of
saying I'm giving people license to sin
have you noticed that people are sitting
say okay I give you a license license or
sin now your license to sin all right we
need license to buy a car we need
license okay to do many things Even in
our our country but there's one thing we
people do it all the time okay I'll tell
you something that comes to close the
license of sin First Corinthians 15 56
the strength the strength of sin
well you bring people under the law the
strength of sin is going to work
right this whole thing tells us that the
gospel of grace is amazing amen and
there's been a change people
I said there's been a change
the Bible tells us look at this all
right let's finish this but then will
they not have ceased to be offered Those
Old Testament sacrifices for the
worshipers once purified the word once
in the great is hapaks which is once and
for all the Believers the worshipers
once and for all purified would have had
no more consciousness of sins this is
true Christianity this is the organic
extra virgin primitive Christianity in
the book of Acts amen this is what they
believe they you don't find them always
seem conscious amen praise God like I
accused the people of Israel of denying
the Lord amen and he was so free of sin
because when you are sin conscious you
are negating what Jesus did you are
saying you didn't do a good job I don't
believe you did it I need to do it
myself amen because I'm still conscious
like for example someone paid the
million dollars to uh uh Pastor Gabriel
but somehow you know the news didn't
travel to me it's still paid
but the news has not been communicated
to me when I see him I'll still have
let me understand that and unfortunately
that's where Christendom is a lot of
them think that they still have this
payment and they pay as you go kind of
thing you pay as you go all right your
past tense are forgiven but from now on
you pay as you go no my friend Jesus
amen and that doesn't give you license
to sin in fact whoever knows they're
forgiven much will love him much and all
has this happened in both sacrifices
there's a reminder of sin see
he's contrasting this with no
consciousness of sense with reminder of
sins and it seems like people believe in
it's like every sermon has gonna be a
reminder of since or else we have not
done our job but it's the opposite of
what what true Christianity is
amen once Jesus have died for us there
should not be a reminder of sins
amen for it's not possible that the
blood of both and goats could take away
sins so when you are conscious of sins
you're reminded of sins you are saying
they don't take away sins now we
understand the blood of bulls and goats
could not take away sins but the blood
of Jesus friends have not just
remove your sins it's obliterated
out of God's sight forevermore amen
did Jesus do that drop down
but this man capital M Jesus after he
had offered one sacrifice for sins
forever everyone say one sacrifice for
one sacrifice for sins forever
sat down at the right hand of God he sat
down because his work is finished now we
drop down and we see what the holy
spirit says the Holy Spirit adds their
sins and their Lawless Deeds God says I
will remember no more now where there is
remission of this there is no longer an
offering for sin where your sins have
been forgiven or remitted there's no
more an offering for sin to hear people
say things like God I have such a bad
pass Lord I Dishonored you in my past
and and and I've done so many bad things
Lord I want to give my life to you God
you are trying to give your life to
amen or you say God I I've done so many
bad things Lord and and here I give you
this as a sacrifice no no God doesn't
want any more sin offering if you want
to give your life to the Lord like those
of us who have gone full time for the
Lord uh in that sense all right do it
do it because he's called you too
when you die and you give offerings
don't do it as a thin offering because
last night you did something bad
your money cannot cover your sins but if
you give you're here because the seat
you sow not a debt you owe
and when you give it as a seat you saw
a man you did because you love the Lord
because he first loved you amen so uh
therefore because there's no more an
offering for sin therefore Brethren
having boldness to enter the holiest by
the blood of Jesus by a New and Living
Way now there's been a change because in
the Old Testament it was the old old and
and deathly way you know dying away
because the more you the more they try
to come near god with their sins right
the high priest goes in once a year and
that with great trepidation and fear
with with a amazing amount of of uh pre
preparation before he goes in he's gonna
be washed here washed and almost like
you gotta fast and make sure that he
goes in and hope he doesn't sin he was
an old dying way but what Jesus did is
that it's now a New and Living Way to
I say it's a New and Living Way which
means the more you come the more you
live the word living is living this is
the place the more you come to God the
in fact the more you're away from God
you find there's a time when when
disease can fasten itself in your body
things can happen you feel natural like
the people of the world Amen you don't
feel like you are special but the more
you come to God Amen is a New and Living
you're full of life amen not only that
and having a high priest over the house
I mean to say three times let us draw
drawer draw near to God how with a full
a True Heart in full Assurance of Faith
having our hearts sprinkled from an evil
conscience and our bodies wash with pure
water you know it's an evil conscience
always telling you your sin your sin
you've seen your sin you've seen that's
a sin that's a sin then evil conscience
now we are sprinkle sprinkle means the
and that was the payment silence the
debt on my conscience I can come to God
in a New and Living Way doesn't mean I'm
perfect but my sins have all been
by the blood of Jesus can I have a good
amen people and our bodies worship pure
Waters now let us draw near keep that in
mind okay keep that in mind
in the ancient times they know
Christianity not by the word
Christianity all right Christians were
first caught Christians in Antioch
all right Christ means anointed one
Christians means anointed once
smile your neighbor and say you're
seated by an anointed one amen but we
okay we are not the Christ here is where
some people try to grab this and and and
sound bite Pastor Prince says we are the
Christ you know I didn't say without
I said the meaning of Christians means
anointed once but there's only one
Christ the Christ Jesus the Christ can I
all right now they were called
Christians and also the Christianity was
caught the way in the book of Acts the
way they persecuted those who are off
the way uh it's also called the Great
confession not confessing your sins
confession is confessing Jesus Christ
when we confess Jesus as our Lord we are
actually confessing Jesus is our
righteousness let me explain to you
let's look at Isaiah 45 for a while all
right this is going to help you you're
going to bless you okay let's drop down
I have sworn by myself but what has gone
out of my mouth in righteousness and
shall not return God says that unto me
every knee shall bow every tongue shall
God promised every knee about every
tongue will confess now some of you your
minds are working already you say that
sounds very much like a new testament
right I don't know what you're talking
about all right you get to see it the
next one surely shall one say in the
Lord I have righteousness and strength
so Isaiah who live about 600 years
before Christ came in the flesh all
right Isaiah foresaw all of us that
surely shall once say in the Lord I have
righteousness and strength the Bible
says even to him shall man come and all
that are incense or angry again sin
shall be a shame in the Lord shall all
the seed of Israel will be justified and
amen actually folks being righteous is
only the the part before Glory
you know what you're in for Glory
amen where you shine praise God the
glory of God Amen that's why you've got
to believe we are righteous what Christ
has made us to be we declare we are
and do not declare we are is an
can I have a good amen people
in the New Testament look at Philippians
chapter 2 at the name of Jesus every
you know what let's put them together
shall we all right put them together
Isaiah 45 on the left Philippians 2 on
the right look at verse 23 right just
now God says unto me every knee shall
bow every tongue shall swear Philippians
says at the name of Jesus every knee
should bow of things in heaven things in
Earth and things under the Earth
and then in Philippians it says and that
every tongue should confess that Jesus
Christ is Lord through the glory of God
the father now we've all heard that
Jesus Christ is Lord what does that mean
Jesus is Lord what does that mean Jesus
Christ is Lord oh that means Pastor
Prince that he's he is the master all
right he is the Lord The Sovereign Lord
yeah but what does it mean what does it
mean to a a Jew back then it's actually
a fulfillment of Isaiah 45 to say Jesus
is Lord is to say Jesus is my
I am not my own righteousness Jesus is
all right because you compare this with
verse 24 surely shall one say in the
Lord I have righteousness and strain
that's why unto me every Niche about
everything will swear this I have
righteousness in the Lord I am the
righteousness of God in Christ the
now can you also see that
that when you confess this you are
confessing every tongue should confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory
of God the Father every time you say I'm
the righteousness of God in Christ you
are glorifying God the Father
you know you give glory to God you give
because of what Jesus did you are
and the devil wants you to say how can
you say that who are you to say that
amen when actually it glorifies God
another thing I want to say about the
Bible as you can see from here is that
you have the type in the New Testament
you have the anti-type you have the
bronze serpent a type John tree you have
Jesus saying that he's the anti-type the
substance of the Shadow the anti-thigh
one thing good about the studying the
okay is this when you study the Old
Testament you find the details of the
in the type you'll find more details
than the anti-type for example Jesus
says even as Moses lives up the serpent
in the desert but then in the empty I
mean in the shadow in the type you have
details like snakes beat them and who
are the ones who can look not people who
are especially holy or what but those
who have been hurt those who have sinned
those who have diseases they are the
ones who can look and still be healed
and still be safe so the details are in
the Old Testament but the substance is
in the new so here you have the
substance in Philippians every tongue
confess Jesus Christ as Lord but what's
the meaning the details is in the Old
Testament that means someone who says in
the Lord I have righteousness and
strength comes of the righteousness
in the Lord I have righteousness and
thereby two unchangeable or immutable
things in which is impossible for God to
lie you see there are a few things God
cannot do it's impossible for God to lie
not that God will not God cannot lie
we might have strong consolation who
have fled for Refuge to lay hold of the
okay this is the book of Hebrews written
to the Jews Hebrews they understand the
concept of the Old Testament pictures
and types all right so when he says we
have fled for Refuge we're Believers in
Christ have fled for Refuge straight
away their minds go to the Cities of
God told Joshua in the Old Testament to
set up six Cities of Refuge scattered at
the right places of the whole breath and
length of the land of Israel so that if
someone commits a a manslaughter he's
able to flee the City of Refuge unless
someone kills him and the city he's safe
so Jesus is a City of Refuge for guilty
and in fact the six cities have names to
it so the details are in the Old
Testament in fact in my book my latest
book uh prayer of protection Psalms 91
okay there's a whole chapter given to
the study of the Cities of Refuge and
the names are given there all right real
quick the names means all right someone
who bends down to carry all of us on his
strong shoulders and lift us up safely
away from all the things that would hurt
can I have a good amen all right it's a
picture of Jesus carrying his his lamb
safely on his shoulders and the lamb
doesn't have the what doesn't have to
walk only have to rest on his shoulders
amen he Bears us so it's a beautiful
picture but then we only have the word
refuge with the idea of City of Refuge
but the detail study in the Old
Testament so it behooves us to study the
Old Testament can I have a good amen
praise to God thank you Jesus are you
learning so far now it's not enough that
you say well Pastor praying Jesus Christ
is Lord doesn't mean that uh uh we
confess I'm the righteousness well if
that's not enough for you I'll give you
another one Romans 10 verse 9 and 10.
Romans 10 verse 9 and 10. if you confess
with your mouth the Lord Jesus
what about the Lord Jesus confess me my
mother Lord Jesus what is it about the
Lord Jesus to confess doesn't tell you
right right and believe in your heart
that God has raised him from the dead
for with the heart here we get the
Revelation with the heart One Believes
and two righteousness can you see that
so we are confessing Jesus as our
righteousness that's a confession that
and with the mouth confession it's made
unto salvation soteria in the great
salvation is not just saved from hell it
is safe from our uh or from everything
that Christ delivered us from even
poverty even curse addictions bondages
salvation is wholeness soundness
preservation Prosperity this is a it's a
all-inclusive word amen so we confess we
are the righteousness of God in Christ
with our heart we believe we are
righteous and then with the mouth
confession is made unto our salvation
you don't have to climb the highest
you don't have to swim the deepest ocean
you don't have to flight yourself
flagellate yourself you don't have to to
go without food you don't have to
confess Jesus as your righteousness you
so I hope that that establishes it that
we're on the right track and there's
been a change because it's what let us
draw near people are drawing away
obviously their concept of God has been
very mixed God forgives you yeah but
some parts you are still Unforgiven yeah
you are safe you are safe forever but
you do something wrong you can still go
you know what I'm saying it's like me
telling Justin I love you forever
all right you're always my son but there
are a few things one day no more my son
there's no security there all right
that's why only eternal security and joy
where there's no eternal security there
can be no joy and no peace
so be done away with this miserable
doctrine that says you can lose your
I don't care who teaches that it's not
worthy of the blood of Jesus
Jesus says they shall never perish for
you to say that the blood can save you
and you can be lost tomorrow is to bring
the denigrate the blood of Jesus to the
amen Apostle Prince praise God
hallelujah all right for the scripture
says whoever believes on him
will not be put to shame now when you
ask someone let's say you take this
verse out of his contacts you tell
people if you believe on him you'll
never be put to shame so believe uh yeah
I believe what do you believe I believe
in the historical Jesus I believe he he
was on Earth before is that belief
oh well I believe that Jesus was here
before is that belief well I believe
Jesus is a good man is that belief
by the way those who say that I believe
she is a good man but he's not God uh
you're gonna have it both ways okay
Jesus says that he is deity Jesus says
that he is the only way Jesus said a lot
of things either he is who he says he is
or he's the world's greatest liar no I
don't believe he's the world's greatest
liar I believe he's a good man a good
to your left either he's who he says he
is or he is the world's greatest liar
no other blood can save us
