Bishop Jakes wants to show you how God uses difficult, crushing experiences to prepare you for unexpected blessings. If you are faithful through suffering, you will be surprised by God's joy, comforted by His peace, and fulfilled with His purpose. Crushing will inspire you to have hope, even in your most difficult moments. If you trust in God and lean on Him during setbacks, He will lead you through.

- MOUNTAINS ALL AROUND, JUST TO SEE WHAT WAS GOING ON.
- 00:02:52.128 --> 00:02:53.363

- TEMPLE MOUNT AND HAD THE EXPERIENCE OF WALKING UP
- 00:03:06.943 --> 00:03:08.144
- EXPERIENCE OF WALKING UP INTO WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN
- 00:03:08.211 --> 00:03:10.280
- INTO WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN THE HOLY OF HOLIES ONLY TO
- 00:03:10.346 --> 00:03:11.681
- THE HOLY OF HOLIES ONLY TO FIND ABRAHAM'S ROCK,
- 00:03:11.748 --> 00:03:15.351
- THE PLACE WHERE HE WOULD
- 00:03:16.185 --> 00:03:16.719
- THE PLACE WHERE HE WOULD OFFER UP ISAAC, AND IT WAS
- 00:03:16.786 --> 00:03:18.354
- OFFER UP ISAAC, AND IT WAS THEN THAT I REALIZED THAT
- 00:03:18.421 --> 00:03:19.422
- THEN THAT I REALIZED THAT THE BIBLE ISN'T WIDE;
- 00:03:19.489 --> 00:03:23.793
- THE BIBLE ISN'T WIDE; IT'S DEEP, THAT THE SAME PLACE
- 00:03:23.860 --> 00:03:26.929
- IT'S DEEP, THAT THE SAME PLACE THAT ABRAHAM OFFERS UP
- 00:03:26.996 --> 00:03:29.499
- THAT ABRAHAM OFFERS UP ISAAC IS IN THE SAME AREA
- 00:03:29.565 --> 00:03:31.434
- ISAAC IS IN THE SAME AREA OF WHERE CHRIST IS TO BE
- 00:03:31.501 --> 00:03:33.903
- OF WHERE CHRIST IS TO BE CRUCIFIED, SO IT'S NOT
- 00:03:33.970 --> 00:03:36.472
- CRUCIFIED, SO IT'S NOT ABOUT GOING FROM PLACE TO
- 00:03:36.539 --> 00:03:37.840
- ABOUT GOING FROM PLACE TO PLACE.
- 00:03:37.907 --> 00:03:38.975
- PLACE. IT'S ABOUT DIGGING DEEPER.
- 00:03:39.042 --> 00:03:40.510
- IT'S ABOUT DIGGING DEEPER. SO YOU STAND IN A
- 00:03:40.576 --> 00:03:44.681
- SO YOU STAND IN A CONTEMPORARY PLACE WITH A
- 00:03:44.747 --> 00:03:45.715
- CONTEMPORARY PLACE WITH A CONTEMPORARY SHOVEL AND
- 00:03:45.782 --> 00:03:46.816
- CONTEMPORARY SHOVEL AND DIG YOUR WAY THROUGH THE

- EPISTLES AND DIG YOUR WAY INTO THE PROPHETS AND DIG
- 00:03:50.186 --> 00:03:51.854
- INTO THE PROPHETS AND DIG YOUR WAY INTO THE OLD
- 00:03:51.921 --> 00:03:53.189
- YOUR WAY INTO THE OLD TESTAMENT BECAUSE THE
- 00:03:53.256 --> 00:03:55.658
- TESTAMENT BECAUSE THE HISTORY OF OUR FAITH IS IN
- 00:03:55.725 --> 00:03:57.760
- HISTORY OF OUR FAITH IS IN LAYERS.
- 00:03:57.827 --> 00:04:00.763
- LAYERS. I WALKED DOWN TO THE
- 00:04:00.830 --> 00:04:03.299
- I WALKED DOWN TO THE WAILING WALL, THE WAILING
- 00:04:03.366 --> 00:04:05.535
- WAILING WALL, THE WAILING WALL, WHERE ALL THE JEWS

- ROCKING BACK AND FORTH. THEY ROCK BACK AND FORTH.
- 00:04:19.916 --> 00:04:20.650
- THEY ROCK BACK AND FORTH. I ASKED THE GUIDE,
- 00:04:20.717 --> 00:04:21.584
- I ASKED THE GUIDE, "WHY ARE THEY ROCKING
- 00:04:21.651 --> 00:04:22.318
- "WHY ARE THEY ROCKING BACK AND FORTH?"
- 00:04:22.385 --> 00:04:23.720
- BACK AND FORTH?" THEY SAID, "BECAUSE THEY
- 00:04:23.786 --> 00:04:24.887
- THEY SAID, "BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE THAT GOD IS A

- BECAUSE GOD IS ALWAYS MOVING. HE'S ALWAYS ROCKING.
- 00:04:33.463 --> 00:04:34.364
- HE'S ALWAYS ROCKING. HE'S ALWAYS DOING."
- 00:04:34.430 --> 00:04:35.498
- HE'S ALWAYS DOING." AND I SAID, "CAN I GO?"
- 00:04:35.565 --> 00:04:38.101
- AND I SAID, "CAN I GO?" AND WITH THE WOMEN ON ONE
- 00:04:38.167 --> 00:04:39.001
- AND WITH THE WOMEN ON ONE SIDE AND THE MEN ON THE OTHER,
- 00:04:39.068 --> 00:04:39.869
- SIDE AND THE MEN ON THE OTHER, I CAME TO THE WAILING WALL

- EXPERIENCE. I BURST INTO TEARS BECAUSE
- 00:04:44.140 --> 00:04:46.376
- I BURST INTO TEARS BECAUSE THE WAILING WALL IS THE
- 00:04:46.442 --> 00:04:47.710
- THE WAILING WALL IS THE LAST REMNANT OF
- 00:04:47.777 --> 00:04:50.213
- LAST REMNANT OF HEROD'S TEMPLE.
- 00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:51.614
- HEROD'S TEMPLE. THE WAILING WALL IS
- 00:04:51.681 --> 00:04:53.850
- THE WAILING WALL IS REMINISCENT OF SOLOMON'S
- 00:04:53.916 --> 00:04:56.753
- REMINISCENT OF SOLOMON'S TEMPLE, AND WHEN I LOOKED
- 00:04:56.819 --> 00:04:58.654

- WHERE THE THRESHING FLOOR OF ORNAN WAS, WHERE
- 00:05:16.806 --> 00:05:18.174
- OF ORNAN WAS, WHERE SOLOMON'S TEMPLE WAS,
- 00:05:18.241 --> 00:05:19.175
- SOLOMON'S TEMPLE WAS, WHERE ALL OF HISTORY HAD
- 00:05:19.242 --> 00:05:20.009
- WHERE ALL OF HISTORY HAD COLLIDED IN THAT MOMENT,
- 00:05:20.076 --> 00:05:21.010
- COLLIDED IN THAT MOMENT, AND I JUST STARTED CRYING.
- 00:05:21.077 --> 00:05:24.380
- AND I'M SURROUNDED BY JEWS,
- 00:05:25.181 --> 00:05:26.115
- AND I'M SURROUNDED BY JEWS, AND THEY'RE WATCHING A
- 00:05:26.182 --> 00:05:28.518
- AND THEY'RE WATCHING A CHRISTIAN CRY AT THEIR

- THE MIDIANITES CAME ALONG AND BOUGHT HIM FOR 20 PIECES
- 00:14:52.147 --> 00:14:53.716
- AND BOUGHT HIM FOR 20 PIECES OF SILVER BECAUSE GOD WAS
- 00:14:53.782 --> 00:14:55.517

- BUT HE IS ACTING OUT WHAT JESUS WILL FULFILL,
- 00:15:10.632 --> 00:15:14.036

- 00:15:25.414 --> 00:15:28.250
- THE YOUNG MAN WHO GREW UP WITH THE COAT OF MANY COLORS,
- 00:15:28.317 --> 00:15:29.418

- MORE YEARS FREE THAN HE DID BOUND, THAT HE SPENT
- 00:15:51.306 --> 00:15:53.275
- DID BOUND, THAT HE SPENT MORE YEARS AS THE PRINCE
- 00:15:53.342 --> 00:15:55.277
- MORE YEARS AS THE PRINCE OF EGYPT THAN HE DID AS A
- 00:15:55.344 --> 00:15:56.912
