Same here, it’s taken about 4 months to memorize romans 8&6 starting on 7 now. It is changing my thinking and the Spirit continually brings things to mind during the day that these verses apply to.
I want to encourage everyone who enjoyed this video to memorize Romans eight. If John piper can do it, so can you. If actors and actresses can memorize lines for their movie, we can memorize scripture. After all, who should have more motivation, a soap opera star or a Christian? You can do it!
2 Cor. 5:15 Life you are right, thanks for this encouragement... by Grace I'll do it! yes!... I'll do it in French and then English and then Spanish and finally Dutch...🙌
2 Cor. 5:15 Life oh I don't have FB. But thank you kindly! : ) I need God's word to change me. I want to love, obey, and worship our Lord more. It was the Word of GOD that rescued me from the dark spirit of depression in 2009. Hallelujah ! The *Truth* shall set us free!
Matt031897. I believe my brother in Christ Alex Waters is admonishing you to be cautious of mockery on this comment section. "Touch not His Annointed and do His Prophets no harm. " Those who contend with the Children of The Most High, are going to be contended with BY The Most High. Be thou not foolish. Repent . Bow your knee, and accept Christ now. Erwise there will be Hell to pay . Sooner than Later. God Bless you and Love and Peace Barb W
***** . I understand that this is what you believe. Go to the YOU TUBE channel called TRIBULATION SAINTS. See what you think of some of the videos, then comment me back with your opinion. I come in peace. God Bless Barb W
***** The second coming of Christ is referred to as "The Day of Reconning" for a reason. And God mostly punishes His disobedient children (carnal christians) in this life.. Everyone else He is being patient with in hopes that they will come to a saving knowledge of Christ. 2 Peter 3:9 "The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance."
I came across this one day in my past when I was tripping on acid. It blew my mind!!!!! God is so awesome! I’ve now lost count of how many years I’ve been sober! It took loosing everyone close to me, but I have taken up my cross, I deny my flesh and practice righteousness, even as he is righteous. I love you Jesus!
@@deathnote939393 If God wanted to H would cast Satan from existence with no more than a passing thought. If God stands with you nobody can stand up against you, because you are protected and sheltered by the almighty Creator of this Universe who is actively and constantly in control and sustaining every elementary particle within. No created force can ever defeat the ultimate creating force unless the ultimate creating force allows the force it created to destroy it, and God would never allow any evil to defeat Him. Sorry about the long rant. May God bless you my friend.
I am going through a situation where only God can help me. It is very conflicting towards my faith in Christ and I feel like am drowning. Listening to this reading has brought a light in my heart. Praise God.
May God show great mercy in your behave. Those who He loves he disciplines and he prunes the branches that bare fruit so that they may bare more fruit! Don’t lose hope, may you find rest in his word and presence, in Jesus name.
I started drinking when I was 16. I would drink at parties, but I also started drinking alone because I was unhappy, and I was in a lot of emotional pain all the time. My mom was very aggressive when I was younger, and my brother hated her and so did I. He started hanging out with shady people, he started failing all his classes, he was never home, and my parents fought all the time. I also ran away several times. I was always trying to figure out a reason as to why I was here or what the purpose of life was. So, I started looking at different philosophies, religions, and beliefs. When I was 18 after I was hungover, I got on my knees and I prayed for the first time. I asked if God was real that he would show me he was real because I couldn’t take it anymore. I was crying when I prayed for this. At that moment I felt a presence come over me like a wind. It was barely noticeable, but it was unlike anything in my life I had experienced up until that point. I was surprised when I felt it and I remember saying “what was that?” after that experience I pretty much forgot what happened and kept partying, until my senior year when I got arrested. After my arrest, my parents lost all their trust in me and I was expelled from high school. I was told never to come back. At that time, I felt afraid and hopeless. That’s when I started looking for God, and I prayed that he would reveal himself in my life and that he would give me signs. My prayers began getting answered so consistently that I couldn’t deny that God was doing something. It was mysterious and compelling. I ended up in Church and started reading the bible hours a day. I stopped hanging out with all my other friends because they were continually getting arrested. I was able to forgive my family and myself and to ask to be forgiven. I noticed how at Church people were judgmental and how they formed cliques but were afraid to be around anyone else different from them. It increased my faith because I realized Jesus was not like that and ever since I was young, I saw people as people regardless of who they were. After a while, it’s like I could see God's presence was in my life and then it felt like he wasn’t, and then he was, and then he wasn’t. One day I woke up and felt more depressed than I ever have in my entire life. I felt like I was dying on the inside. That night I prayed, and I said, God, I don’t see my life five years from now I'm going to die Jesus save me Lord, please save me. I was weeping when I said it and when I asked him to save me, I felt a presence inside of me like a heartbeat, and I felt it once like a pulse, and I said Lord please save me and I felt it again even stronger. It was like radiance. When I woke up the next morning, I had transformed everything felt brand new like I was a kid again. All my fears and all my racing thoughts everything was gone. I looked at my hands, and I said this can’t be real it’s impossible. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I saw a different person. I started praying, and the holy spirit became entirely real to me it was washing over me and inside of me. It was total love and peace, and I heard a voice but not an audible one, it was an inner voice. It said I am with you; I love you, I will never leave you, it’s done it’s finished. That was May 3rd, 2009, and ever since then I’ve followed God, I have seen many things change and many things I know wouldn’t have changed without faith and belief. I know what it’s like to be lost to feel you have no hope. Don’t ever think you’re stuck, or life can’t change because it can. My mom is a Christian now, Its night and day. Some of the things that went away during that period were severe anxiety and my addiction to alcohol. I’ve seen and experienced so many things that are miraculous and seen how God has worked in my life. When we ask God to forgive us for what we’ve done and turn away from our sins and wrongdoings and we believe in Christ's sacrifice everything changes. His word says if we confess with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in our hearts that he died and rose again we will have eternal life but not just life after death but abundant life in the present. Our sins are erased not only past, present, and future but our burdens and fears are lifted also. Our thoughts, our minds, our hearts, our souls are transformed and united with God and we know his spirit lives in us. If you seek, pray, and knock you will know JESUS IS KING!!! HE LIVES!
What a testimony brother! That gave me such a strong sense of fellowship with you and I don’t even know who you are in the flesh but i know you’re Christs and I Love you!❤ I came from a family of ten kids(2 of my sisters have passed away and recently my earthly father) I was number 7, (6boys and 4 girls)my dad was on and off hard drugs but still wasn’t a terrible father he provided and worked hard and was ex-military, alcoholic too my mom drank a lot and would sleep all day my older siblings were left to help raise us. Growing up getting headlice almost every year and being picked on in school, because I grew up with no eyebrows and had messed up teeth I didn’t have my own bedroom till I was almost a teenager. Me and my brother hunter would sleep on the couch in the living room. We went to youth group church every Wednesday night and some Sundays. To give my parents relief because having ten kids is intense I got 4 now and I could’ve only imagined 6 more on top of that. 😂 I smoked weed and drank from a young age and smoked cigarettes as well as it was really easy to get away with things because of how many siblings I had that were doing similar things and always getting into trouble themselves. I had a brain aneurysm and I called out on Jesus Christ and His Father for mercy on me so that my child wouldn’t grow up without her earthly father. I was 19 years old at that point. I’m 26 now. ❤❤❤ WORTHY IS THE LAMB! Here’s a poem/literary essay written by John Flavel a puritan from the 1600’s. He also has a book called “Heart Work” it’s on UA-cam and I’ve been taking notes from it as well. But yeah here’s that small piece of literature he wrote 400 years ago. Father: My son, here is a company of poor miserable souls, that have utterly undone themselves, and now lie open to my justice! Justice demands satisfaction for them, or will satisfy itself in the eternal ruin of them: What shall be done for these souls? Son: O my Father, such is my love to, and pity for them, that rather than they shall perish eternally, I will be responsible for them as their Surety; bring in all thy bills, that I may see what they owe thee; Lord, bring them all in, that there may be no after-reckonings with them; at my hand shalt thou require it. I will rather choose to suffer thy wrath than they should suffer it: upon me, my Father, upon me be all their debt. Father: But, my Son, if thou undertake for them, thou must reckon to pay the last mite, expect no abatements; if I spare them, I will not spare thee. Son: Content, Father, let it be so; charge it all upon me, I am able to discharge it: and though it prove a kind of undoing to me, though it impoverish all my riches, empty all my treasures, (for so indeed it did, 2 Cor. 8: 9. “Though he was rich, yet for our sakes he became poor”) yet I am content to undertake it. Flavel: Blush, ungrateful believers, O let shame cover your faces; judge in yourselves now, has Christ deserved that you should stand with him for trifles, that you should shrink at a few petty difficulties, and complain, this is hard, and that is harsh? O if you knew the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ in this his wonderful condescension for you, you could not do it.
How awesome is this. The word of God. It lives, it breathes. The present times are so dark. The faithful are hardpressed on every side, but God will not fail us! He sits on the throne, remain faithful church. Through every trial and every temptation. It is time to live every moment as fierce image bearers of the Lord of hosts.
God picked me back up in 2023 after I let him go, a few weeks before my 22nd birthday I was a back slidden Christian, now I pick up my cross and I’m walking to god, he shows signs in my life that even my family can see. Changes I couldn’t make by myself he’s strengthening me to walk in the spirit. I thank him for that, I pray to him a lot more than before. In god I hope, anyone who sees this know that god will never leave you he’s always there you may not feel him but he’s always there watching over your life. What ever hardship you are going through he’s there with you. Amen!!!
Daniel Berdassov Do you mean I'm separated from God every occassion I'm in the flesh i.e. if I do wrong? or are you referring to habitually living in the flesh?
Daniel Berdassov Thanks for your kind explanation. I hope I didn't come across as defensive? I want to learn the truth even if it hurts. I dont want to be fooled anymore. I'd rather hear the dreadful but saving truth than sweet sermons that give neither life nor power to live for God. God bless you for your sincerity & faithful words!
It is not a "reading". Piper is quoting this from memory. It is an excerpt from a sermon in which he quotes scripture for about the first 18 minutes. One of my favorites.
Robert Jensen give me a break in a movie do u breathlessly wait for a mistake why even listen if not with an honest open mind conviction is what made u shut it off shame
But seriously, the emotion and true epic- ness. It made me appreciate this chapter so much more! If you read some thing enough it get boring but this definitely brings out everything we should feel when reading it
Abi Johnson you are so right. I have listened to this over and over and over. it is absolutely beautiful and exhilerating. God has so blessed us to give us the opportunity to be called His children. I am constantly amazed by His great love. your comment aptly expresses how those who really know Him feel about Him.
It truly is amazing when one recites the word of God with a Spirit illuminated understanding of it, truly captivating. Thanks be to God for such and for sharing :)
I memorized Romans 8 about 35 years ago. I can't begin to say how much this chapter has saturated and changed my life with Christ. Even to this day I will often quote something from this text in most any discussion regarding our faith and walk with Him. Let the Word of God richly dwell within you. You will blessed all the days of your life.
IF they only knew the profound nature of your comment. IF anyone IS HIS your comment would bring a standing ovation as the answer to so many who seek Him or are seeking affirmation of their belief. No doubt of His love, No doubt of His grace, No doubt of His Spirit, our flesh, His Son, our salvation. The no wiggle room of the chapter clearly exposes the heart of man. 1 The road is narrow 2 He knows the heart of men an still He lets us live. Wherever you are today I thank you for that day you sent a message to the world and no one listened. Thank you for your comments. Until we meet again
We need both the logos word and the rhema word. Romans 8:6 leapt off the page for me and freed me from anxiety and depression. God's word is a living word. Don't stop reading. Don't stop feasting.
Shimona My goodness! I’m right at Romans 8:6 as of today and you saying that gave me encouragement... May the LORD our Father continue to keep you and your family in perfect peace😇
I memorized this chapter last year. I have memorized several books as well. It is a wonderful way to renew our minds. I also had my kids memorized chapters and books. It doesn't make us more holy, but helps our prayers, our thoughts, and our joy. It also helps to know what is true and what is false.
I'm an ex Muslim, then became an atheist, then I have the blood of Jesus Christ in my veins. I got my faith back through miracles and seeing my prayers been answered. I want to build a christian family with loads of love for Our Father and Jesus Christ. Amen. I have faith and I trust Our Lord's divine plan.
This scripture read by Piper added with this music helped me one dark night when I completely despaired in pain (post 2 back surgeries and facing having to wear a catheter all my life). It literally saved my life. Glory to God I was eventually fully healed, able to walk and yes urinate on my own. I was and remain so thankful to God. I credit Bob Brown at Stony Lane Baptist Church in Rhode Island for leading me to this manna from heaven when I most needed it. He was literally used by angels and so was the person who put this Piper read Holy Scripture to music so dramatically.
JESUS 2024! Almost Nov. 2024, and I still listen to this. I listen to it in the car like an old love song, over and over... it's a great pick me up in the morning.
How can anyone possibly dislike the Word of God which is Spirit and Life, the enemy has subdued the minds of the wicked, but those of us who been redeemed it is music to my soul, strenght for my heart and grace to my life, Lord Jesus i Love you and Bless this brother, Amen
Because in the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness but the darkness has not understood it. Men hate the light because it exposes them of their deeds in darkness :(
@@urielmesenja1040 that is not true, I NEVER DISLIKED THE WORD OF GOD, I WAS ASHAMED AND CONVICTED, BUT NEVER DISLIKED THE WORD OF GOD, THAT MAY HAVE BEEN THE CASE WITH YOU SIR, NOT ME THAT WAS NOT MY ISSUE, B BLESSED
This once for all certifies all creation awaits God's Kingdom. My beloved pet cat was murdered by a wild animal and even before it happened I knew these creatures had hope through God's love. We have such an awesome God.....so humbling..
Keletso Charity Rabohale How can I be set free ? I know the answer is Jesus but I have prayed and cried to Him over and over again and im still in bondage I accepted Him and repented a year and a half a go and im still in bondage to a lot of things
Mike Hill 1jhn2:15-16 tells us the root of darkness or sin BUT the Spirit of God IN YOU gives you freedom from this Truth is LIFE is in your looking Whatever your gaze or you looking upon this is also what you receive from!!!! Jesus!!! Or the world!!! Jas1:15!!! Gen4:7!!! Truth be told ,you transform through MIND renewal of His revelation of truth manifesting through FAITH Rom12/2
Imagine...the whole creation groans and awaits our stepping into our full faith inheritance, the fullness of redemption. Just as the crushing weight of Adam's self will brought everything into turmoil, so the heavenly targets spurring on our obedience will free up this blue and green place. And Jesus takes full charge.
What can separate us from the love of God? NOTHING! Thats the beauty of Christ. Once we are part of His kingdom we can never be separated from it. Thanks be to God for his everlasting mercy and grace to unworthy sinners.
I wish you would do more of these, Mr. Jeremy Leong! This is absolutely SUPER!!!!! I have listened to this SO many times! I recently decided begin to memorize it myself. Thanks!
I have listened to this countless times. Piper has said repeatedly that Romans is the 'greatest book of the Bible', and I wholeheartedly agree. Every word is laced with the Lord's mercies and lovingkindness. Romans, and more specifically Romans 8, spur me on to press all the more harder in the race set before me. I can't wait to meet Paul one day in Heaven and worship Christ eternally. All the glory be to Him, always.
I dont want to cry anymore , but i will if i must. I will not stop reading or speaking scripture . I have to see God . We will be sober , we will be pure , when were persecuted were still quoting scripture . To end .
I have A.D.D. & thru Jesus the HOLY FATHER did not make my mind to MEMORIZE his every word for word! It's just not in the cards for me to do that, BUT I can understand it and keep it on my HEART. I TRULY LOVE THE FATHER WITH ALL OF MY MIND, HEART, SOUL & STRENGTH. That I can MEMORIZE word for word very easily and LOVE HIM DEEPLY.
Whose here with me in 2022? The world is hurting, now is the time to come together. I praise God everyday. He is working miracles, all the time. We just have to listen, watch for them. When we notice them, we acknowledge those miracles, we praise God and thank him for those miracles. It could be the smallest thing. Keep your eyes out, he IS showing us every single day that he is right there with us. Now is the time to put on that armor of God. He is right there with us. Praise God.
I know the music is added to bring more emotion out of the whole sermon, but it is not needed. The Word of God and the Holy Spirit give enough evidence to feel what is needed to be felt when the truth is being spoken.
@@thetruthshallsetyoufree2040 yes a nice addition until it overpowered the reading towards the end. I was going to share until the music towards the end spoil it, was very distracting, so no share.
The Great Eight with the golden unbreakable chain 8:28-30 "And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good,[a] for those who are called according to his purpose. 29 For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. 30 And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified."
Who is still listening to this in 2087 even though christianity is illegal in all nations, we've all gone underground and are genuinely winning souls through persuasion, love, & genuine spirit leading instead of flashy "services"?
Thank you so much for sharing such a much needed reminder! May we hold fast to the Word, which transforms us continuously into the image of He who is the King and Master,....our Lord Jesus Christ!!! Be well.
2021 I've lost count of the times I've listened to this. Even my kids have memoriesd some portions because they hear it frequently. Blessings to everyone who comes here. Greetings from Belgium
I was raised Catholic and to be very honest I really only knew Jesus in name only. I struggled for literally years before I really understood GRACE. It used to drive me crazy because I would hear teachers/preachers talking about grace, but somehow I just couldn't reconcile grace with what I had learned as a Catholic. I remember taking my Bible and going to a community pool and reading and rereading Romans chapter 7 over and over - praying that God would help me understand. It finally sunk in that day and my understanding of who Jesus was and what He did for us changed forever. So as beautiful as Romans 8 is, Romans 7 has a special place in my heart. I am going to try to memorize 7.
DabbaYabbaDo I too was raised a Catholic. I can remember as a young Roman Catholic hearing the 2nd chapter of Acts being read in catechism. To a young imaginative boy it was a electrifying tale that offered great hope of experiencing it. Tongues of flame over the head, speaking in tongues, who would not want to see that happen. I even went several times to the back of St. Anthony church during recess, to read the 2nd chapter of Acts again in the days before the sacrament of Confirmation. The long, dry ceremony in Latin was a great disappointment to me. I even asked a nun afterwards why nothing took place similar to the account of the book of Acts. I do not remember her answer but do remember she sidestepped my question. I can honestly say I was agnostic from that point on because what was taught by the Catholic Church regarding Confirmation did not line up with scripture. I felt very close to God at that age but that closeness fell away due to the disappointment of not receiving the Holy Ghost. Some 25 years later I received the baptism of the Holy Ghost and spoke in tongues. It was a powerful and emotionally moving experience. The trouble is, the traditions of men, in most all denominational Christianity, makes the word of God to no effect. Mark 7:13 KJVS [13] Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye. Our Lord was talking about the Pharisees of his day, but I think it applies to many of today's Christian churches. Perhaps you will visit my website and read about how grace saves us. Luke www.justifiedfreely.com
DabbaYabbaDo I was raised as a Catholic too.I just knew Jesus by his name too way back then.I didn’t know why he died on the cross.I thought he was dead.Until I started seeking for the truth.And God says,that “if you seek for me you’ll find me” It was a personal encounter with God that he made his son Jesus Christ be known to me and why he died on the cross.I was never the same since then.
Romans 7 is an interjection by the Holy Spirit specifically for the Jews, "speaking to those that know the Law" - the non Jew can go straight from R6 to R8, I've never been under the law, and I don't need the confusion that R7 'can' bring if it's not understood correctly in context. (My old man died with Jesus on the cross and I am no longer a sinner, I am a SAINT. Period.)
very powerful and re-committed my life to God.....Thanks God you brought me in this greatest chapter in the bible...watched it many times and preached it to myself.
I was just thinking about these verses today..every single day, I repeat to myself "not the flesh but the spirit" and that gives me enough courage to get up and pray and read the Bible, without laziness nor excuses. When I accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior and I decided to carry my cross and follow him, I crucified my flesh and I turned around from sin. Therefore I do not live for the flesh anymore but for the spirit. I fight in spirit, I rejoice in spirit, I do all things through the Spirit of God which strengthens me. This is how you fight your battles brothers and sisters, through the Holy Spirit, in Christ, with God that strengthens you. Don't give up, God bless you all!
amazing... a people ruled by our senses, we are a people of the Spirit.. we have Christ in us which is the Hope of all Glory... hallelujah.. Glory to God! shabalande bakilande(Tongues)

I started drinking when I was 16. I would drink at parties, but I also started drinking alone because I was unhappy, and I was in a lot of emotional pain all the time. My mom was very aggressive when I was younger, and my brother hated her and so did I. He started hanging out with shady people, he started failing all his classes, he was never home, and my parents fought all the time. I also ran away several times. I was always trying to figure out a reason as to why I was here or what the purpose of life was. So, I started looking at different philosophies, religions, and beliefs. When I was 18 after I was hungover, I got on my knees and I prayed for the first time. I asked if God was real that he would show me he was real because I couldn’t take it anymore. I was crying when I prayed for this. At that moment I felt a presence come over me like a wind. It was barely noticeable, but it was unlike anything in my life I had experienced up until that point. I was surprised when I felt it and I remember saying “what was that?” after that experience I pretty much forgot what happened and kept partying, until my senior year when I got arrested. After my arrest, my parents lost all their trust in me and I was expelled from high school. I was told never to come back. At that time, I felt afraid and hopeless. That’s when I started looking for God, and I prayed that he would reveal himself in my life and that he would give me signs. My prayers began getting answered so consistently that I couldn’t deny that God was doing something. It was mysterious and compelling. I ended up in Church and started reading the bible hours a day. I stopped hanging out with all my other friends because they were continually getting arrested. I was able to forgive my family and myself and to ask to be forgiven. I noticed how at Church people were judgmental and how they formed cliques but were afraid to be around anyone else different from them. It increased my faith because I realized Jesus was not like that and ever since I was young, I saw people as people regardless of who they were. After a while, it’s like I could see God's presence was in my life and then it felt like he wasn’t, and then he was, and then he wasn’t. One day I woke up and felt more depressed than I ever have in my entire life. I felt like I was dying on the inside. That night I prayed, and I said, God, I don’t see my life five years from now I'm going to die Jesus save me Lord, please save me. I was weeping when I said it and when I asked him to save me, I felt a presence inside of me like a heartbeat, and I felt it once like a pulse, and I said Lord please save me and I felt it again even stronger. It was like radiance. When I woke up the next morning, I had transformed everything felt brand new like I was a kid again. All my fears and all my racing thoughts everything was gone. I looked at my hands, and I said this can’t be real it’s impossible. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I saw a different person. I started praying, and the holy spirit became entirely real to me it was washing over me and inside of me. It was total love and peace, and I heard a voice but not an audible one, it was an inner voice. It said I am with you; I love you, I will never leave you, it’s done it’s finished. That was May 3rd, 2009, and ever since then I’ve followed God, I have seen many things change and many things I know wouldn’t have changed without faith and belief. I know what it’s like to be lost to feel you have no hope. Don’t ever think you’re stuck, or life can’t change because it can. My mom is a Christian now, Its night and day. Some of the things that went away during that period were severe anxiety and my addiction to alcohol. I’ve seen and experienced so many things that are miraculous and seen how God has worked in my life. When we ask God to forgive us for what we’ve done and turn away from our sins and wrongdoings and we believe in Christ's sacrifice everything changes. His word says if we confess with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in our hearts that he died and rose again we will have eternal life but not just life after death but abundant life in the present. Our sins are erased not only past, present, and future but our burdens and fears are lifted also. Our thoughts, our minds, our hearts, our souls are transformed and united with God and we know his spirit lives in us. If you seek, pray, and knock you will know JESUS IS KING!!! HE LIVES!
AMEN!! WOW this testimony gave me hope
What a testimony brother! That gave me such a strong sense of fellowship with you and I don’t even know who you are in the flesh but i know you’re Christs and I Love you!❤
I came from a family of ten kids(2 of my sisters have passed away and recently my earthly father) I was number 7, (6boys and 4 girls)my dad was on and off hard drugs but still wasn’t a terrible father he provided and worked hard and was ex-military, alcoholic too my mom drank a lot and would sleep all day my older siblings were left to help raise us. Growing up getting headlice almost every year and being picked on in school, because I grew up with no eyebrows and had messed up teeth I didn’t have my own bedroom till I was almost a teenager. Me and my brother hunter would sleep on the couch in the living room. We went to youth group church every Wednesday night and some Sundays. To give my parents relief because having ten kids is intense I got 4 now and I could’ve only imagined 6 more on top of that. 😂 I smoked weed and drank from a young age and smoked cigarettes as well as it was really easy to get away with things because of how many siblings I had that were doing similar things and always getting into trouble themselves.
I had a brain aneurysm and I called out on Jesus Christ and His Father for mercy on me so that my child wouldn’t grow up without her earthly father. I was 19 years old at that point. I’m 26 now. ❤❤❤ WORTHY IS THE LAMB!
Here’s a poem/literary essay written by John Flavel a puritan from the 1600’s. He also has a book called “Heart Work” it’s on UA-cam and I’ve been taking notes from it as well. But yeah here’s that small piece of literature he wrote 400 years ago.
Father: My son, here is a company of poor miserable souls, that have utterly undone themselves, and now lie open to my justice! Justice demands satisfaction for them, or will satisfy itself in the eternal ruin of them: What shall be done for these souls?
Son: O my Father, such is my love to, and pity for them, that rather than they shall perish eternally, I will be responsible for them as their Surety; bring in all thy bills, that I may see what they owe thee; Lord, bring them all in, that there may be no after-reckonings with them; at my hand shalt thou require it. I will rather choose to suffer thy wrath than they should suffer it: upon me, my Father, upon me be all their debt.
Father: But, my Son, if thou undertake for them, thou must reckon to pay the last mite, expect no abatements; if I spare them, I will not spare thee.
Son: Content, Father, let it be so; charge it all upon me, I am able to discharge it: and though it prove a kind of undoing to me, though it impoverish all my riches, empty all my treasures, (for so indeed it did, 2 Cor. 8: 9. “Though he was rich, yet for our sakes he became poor”) yet I am content to undertake it.
Flavel: Blush, ungrateful believers, O let shame cover your faces; judge in yourselves now, has Christ deserved that you should stand with him for trifles, that you should shrink at a few petty difficulties, and complain, this is hard, and that is harsh? O if you knew the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ in this his wonderful condescension for you, you could not do it.
How awesome is this. The word of God. It lives, it breathes. The present times are so dark. The faithful are hardpressed on every side, but God will not fail us! He sits on the throne, remain faithful church. Through every trial and every temptation. It is time to live every moment as fierce image bearers of the Lord of hosts.
God picked me back up in 2023 after I let him go, a few weeks before my 22nd birthday I was a back slidden Christian, now I pick up my cross and I’m walking to god, he shows signs in my life that even my family can see. Changes I couldn’t make by myself he’s strengthening me to walk in the spirit. I thank him for that, I pray to him a lot more than before. In god I hope, anyone who sees this know that god will never leave you he’s always there you may not feel him but he’s always there watching over your life. What ever hardship you are going through he’s there with you. Amen!!!
Wow...it hit me hard: my weaknesses and sins aren't strong enough to separate me from the love of God. I am. Forever. Loved. By God! Hallelujah!!!
Daniel Berdassov Do you mean I'm separated from God every occassion I'm in the flesh i.e. if I do wrong?
or are you referring to habitually living in the flesh?
Daniel Berdassov Thanks for your kind explanation. I hope I didn't come across as defensive? I want to learn the truth even if it hurts. I dont want to be fooled anymore. I'd rather hear the dreadful but saving truth than sweet sermons that give neither life nor power to live for God.
God bless you for your sincerity & faithful words!
Amen hallelujah bless his Name".....
O Adigun Thank you for that reminder! What a mighty God we serve! May His grace bring you peace as well my friend.
Sin no more.
It is not a "reading". Piper is quoting this from memory. It is an excerpt from a sermon in which he quotes scripture for about the first 18 minutes. One of my favorites.
Steve Willis
oh wow... kindly share the link
Had to be. I couldn't listen past where he flubbed the pronoun.
Robert Jensen have u read it yet yourself?
Robert Jensen give me a break in a movie do u breathlessly wait for a mistake why even listen if not with an honest open mind conviction is what made u shut it off shame
Robert Jensen Yeah, I know, that was quite a speck. I'm surprised you could see it past your log.
Whooooo-eeee! If that doesn't give you glory bumps, I don't know what will
But seriously, the emotion and true epic- ness. It made me appreciate this chapter so much more! If you read some thing enough it get boring but this definitely brings out everything we should feel when reading it
Abi Johnson oh yes it does
Glory bumps! LOL XD
Abi Johnson you are so right. I have listened to this over and over and over. it is absolutely beautiful and exhilerating. God has so blessed us to give us the opportunity to be called His children. I am constantly amazed by His great love. your comment aptly expresses how those who really know Him feel about Him.
Dan Dan how are Glorybumps less appealing than Goosebumps? We are more glory than geese. Who's the moron?
This is just as relevant today even more so 2023 so many signs. Still listening and soaking it all in. Come Lord Jesus your bride awaits you❤
I'm still here in 2023 and will be here till the end of my days.
It truly is amazing when one recites the word of God with a Spirit illuminated understanding of it, truly captivating. Thanks be to God for such and for sharing :)
I agree to that. amen
Ayabulela Soboyi "Spirit Illuminated" awesome amen...
👍👍👍
Yes, His written Word is truly amazing...All praise be to the living Word, Jesus the Christ!
Ayabulela Soboyi ¤ Amen
I memorized Romans 8 about 35 years ago. I can't begin to say how much this chapter has saturated and changed my life with Christ. Even to this day I will often quote something from this text in most any discussion regarding our faith and walk with Him. Let the Word of God richly dwell within you. You will blessed all the days of your life.
IF they only knew the profound nature of your comment. IF anyone IS HIS your comment would bring a standing ovation as the answer to so many who seek Him or are seeking affirmation of their belief. No doubt of His love, No doubt of His grace, No doubt of His Spirit, our flesh, His Son, our salvation.
The no wiggle room of the chapter clearly exposes the heart of man. 1 The road is narrow 2 He knows the heart of men an still He lets us live.
Wherever you are today I thank you for that day you sent a message to the world and no one listened.
Thank you for your comments.
Until we meet again
It's my favorite. I speak of it often too.
Roman 8-9 is without a doubt the greatest 2 chapters ever written in the history of the world by anyone .
My God yes. Praise Him!!
yes
Paul.E Tedder - Paul is the author, yes. The Holy Spirit is the author, yes.
Paul.E Tedder I'm partial to Ephesians. But this is fantastic too.
EPH 6 THE ARMOR OF GOD. I now know it plus PSALM 91 by heart. Now studying PSALM 40. YES!!!
If I had only one chapter in all of the Bible to read for the rest of my life,
It is Romans 8
“We be made more than conquerors, overcomer’s in this life”. In Him!!!
We need both the logos word and the rhema word. Romans 8:6 leapt off the page for me and freed me from anxiety and depression. God's word is a living word. Don't stop reading. Don't stop feasting.
Shimona My goodness! I’m right at Romans 8:6 as of today and you saying that gave me encouragement... May the LORD our Father continue to keep you and your family in perfect peace😇
I memorized this chapter last year. I have memorized several books as well. It is a wonderful way to renew our minds. I also had my kids memorized chapters and books. It doesn't make us more holy, but helps our prayers, our thoughts, and our joy. It also helps to know what is true and what is false.
That is amazing. Good for you and your kids.
That is amazing.
I love Romans 8, it starts with no condemnation and ends with no separation ❤ from all
Listening in jan 2023. Thank you.
Great time to spread the gospel.
God is in control. Many are lost out there and need to hear His word.
God really used this to speak to me today. Thank you for sharing this.
Niecey D likewise
Niecey D
Same here
Being a "believer" in Jesus Christ, you listen to a lot of secular music. You shall know them by there fruits.
I always come back to this.... Most passionate reading of Romans 8 I've ever heard!!!❤🙏🏽
Facts
Who else is listening in 2024 ???
More than we can fathom
I'm an ex Muslim, then became an atheist, then I have the blood of Jesus Christ in my veins. I got my faith back through miracles and seeing my prayers been answered. I want to build a christian family with loads of love for Our Father and Jesus Christ. Amen.
I have faith and I trust Our Lord's divine plan.
Amen brother I am so so proud and happy for you. God bless you
2024, this is so powerful and Romans 8 is life changing and provides a clear perspective of God’s love for us. I am a believer 🙌🏾🙏🏽
This scripture read by Piper added with this music helped me one dark night when I completely despaired in pain (post 2 back surgeries and facing having to wear a catheter all my life). It literally saved my life. Glory to God I was eventually fully healed, able to walk and yes urinate on my own. I was and remain so thankful to God. I credit Bob Brown at Stony Lane Baptist Church in Rhode Island for leading me to this manna from heaven when I most needed it. He was literally used by angels and so was the person who put this Piper read Holy Scripture to music so dramatically.
💔
All who are lead by the spirit of God, they are the sons of God! The Jesus!
michael mackay yeah, that phrase stood out to me also
My life scripture!
Started 2021 by listening to this,
"What are we gonna say to these things, If GOD IS FOR US> WHO CAN BE AGAINST US?"
JESUS 2024!
Almost Nov. 2024, and I still listen to this. I listen to it in the car like an old love song, over and over... it's a great pick me up in the morning.
I just cried hearing this. So beautiful. I will forever be in awe of the grace of mercy of God. May we rest in His presence forever and ever.
💔
POWERFUL POWERFUL POWERFUL
How can anyone possibly dislike the Word of God which is Spirit and Life, the enemy has subdued the minds of the wicked, but those of us who been redeemed it is music to my soul, strenght for my heart and grace to my life, Lord Jesus i Love you and Bless this brother, Amen
Chevk Yshusha, Matthew 1:21; Matthew 1:11.
You once disliked the Word of God, that's how.
Because in the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness but the darkness has not understood it. Men hate the light because it exposes them of their deeds in darkness :(
Rejecting God and his word is man's default position. That's why people dislike it.
@@urielmesenja1040 that is not true, I NEVER DISLIKED THE WORD OF GOD, I WAS ASHAMED AND CONVICTED, BUT NEVER DISLIKED THE WORD OF GOD, THAT MAY HAVE BEEN THE CASE WITH YOU SIR, NOT ME THAT WAS NOT MY ISSUE, B BLESSED
I wish I could listen to this on a never-ending loop for the rest of my life here on Earth.
That !
This once for all certifies all creation awaits God's Kingdom. My beloved pet cat was murdered by a wild animal and even before it happened I knew these creatures had hope through God's love. We have such an awesome God.....so humbling..
This is absolutely the biggest blessing. This must be how Peter felt when he was ready to fight them all!
This is magnificent. Well done Pastor John Piper.
2021 still here! Memorised all Romans 8! Praise Jesus! Thanks John Piper!
Thanks to this video, I was able to memorize Romans 8 by listening to it many, many times!
JM And Job 22:28 takes us to where we need to be!
Jena Ward pray for me..that we’ll memorize it too..if u can I will too..👍
Will forever be the most epic reminder flashback of a clip, o this earth. Untill we meet him again.
Listening in 2023!!
...the law of the Spirit of life has set me free from the law of sin and death...
Keletso Charity Rabohale How can I be set free ? I know the answer is Jesus but I have prayed and cried to Him over and over again and im still in bondage I accepted Him and repented a year and a half a go and im still in bondage to a lot of things
Mike Hill hey brother
Got plenty to share on this but busy ATM
Mike Hill 1jhn2:15-16 tells us the root of darkness or sin
BUT the Spirit of God IN YOU gives you freedom from this
Truth is LIFE is in your looking
Whatever your gaze or you looking upon this is also what you receive from!!!!
Jesus!!! Or the world!!!
Jas1:15!!!
Gen4:7!!!
Truth be told ,you transform through MIND renewal of His revelation of truth manifesting through FAITH
Rom12/2
Please look up

Great teachers on here
Andrew Farley. Too
Imagine...the whole creation groans and awaits our stepping into our full faith inheritance, the fullness of redemption. Just as the crushing weight of Adam's self will brought everything into turmoil, so the heavenly targets spurring on our obedience will free up this blue and green place. And Jesus takes full charge.
I LOVE THIS! IVE LISTENED TO IT PROBABLY 30 TIMES IN THE LAST WEEK! THANK YOU
michelle morrison I'm with you!
isn't it so awesome
I just love it , it is so powerful , last counted it must be about 40+ times I have listened to it .
🤩😍
Still listening... nearing November 2024! Never gets old. Because God's word is timeless full of power!
2024. This is a powerful chapter. A lot to dissect!
He loves God with such intensity. Love it
Shoba Macintyre
Yes indeed, Amen
I'm striving to be just like that
This made me cry. So beautiful! Thank U Lord for saving me!
What can separate us from the love of God? NOTHING! Thats the beauty of Christ. Once we are part of His kingdom we can never be separated from it. Thanks be to God for his everlasting mercy and grace to unworthy sinners.
Still listening to this in 2024
Im with you. Going to try to memorize it!
Have to
I wish you would do more of these, Mr. Jeremy Leong! This is absolutely SUPER!!!!! I have listened to this SO many times! I recently decided begin to memorize it myself. Thanks!
I have listened to this countless times. Piper has said repeatedly that Romans is the 'greatest book of the Bible', and I wholeheartedly agree. Every word is laced with the Lord's mercies and lovingkindness. Romans, and more specifically Romans 8, spur me on to press all the more harder in the race set before me. I can't wait to meet Paul one day in Heaven and worship Christ eternally. All the glory be to Him, always.
This is how you start your day! With the Gospel the good news of our Father God!
This was so powerful and so beautiful. Thank you Lord Yeshua! In you is all our hope and faith. In you we trust forever and ever.
cat newman
yeshua prince of peace
This is just something you should listen to weekly or even daily
I dont want to cry anymore , but i will if i must. I will not stop reading or speaking scripture . I have to see God . We will be sober , we will be pure , when were persecuted were still quoting scripture . To end .
We are more than conquerors in Jesus Christ.
Reading Romans 8 always feels like I’m reading it for the first time. It’s so powerful ❤️
I pray that one day we see a nation , a world raise up in revival in the name of the Messiah, the King of Kings, Jesus.
I have A.D.D. & thru Jesus the HOLY FATHER did not make my mind to MEMORIZE his every word for word! It's just not in the cards for me to do that, BUT I can understand it and keep it on my HEART. I TRULY LOVE THE FATHER WITH ALL OF MY MIND, HEART, SOUL & STRENGTH. That I can MEMORIZE word for word very easily and LOVE HIM DEEPLY.
Whose here with me in 2022?
The world is hurting, now is the time to come together.
I praise God everyday. He is working miracles, all the time. We just have to listen, watch for them. When we notice them, we acknowledge those miracles, we praise God and thank him for those miracles. It could be the smallest thing. Keep your eyes out, he IS showing us every single day that he is right there with us.
Now is the time to put on that armor of God. He is right there with us. Praise God.
I know the music is added to bring more emotion out of the whole sermon, but it is not needed. The Word of God and the Holy Spirit give enough evidence to feel what is needed to be felt when the truth is being spoken.
I found ot to be a nice addition, but that's okay, we can agree to disagree
God bless you
@@thetruthshallsetyoufree2040 yes a nice addition until it overpowered the reading towards the end. I was going to share until the music towards the end spoil it, was very distracting, so no share.
I know I'm two months late, but here's the original version without the music 👌

@@lukehumphrey7517 Thank you Luke H
In times of despair, listen to this over, and over, and over again and it helps me SO MUH! ♥ Thank You, Lord for Your Word!
Anyone else here 2023? Isn't Romans 8 the best!
The Great Eight with the golden unbreakable chain 8:28-30
"And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good,[a] for those who are called according to his purpose. 29 For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. 30 And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified."
This is all time great, may Jesus Christ bless His people, help us to do Thy will O Lord,
So blessed to hear on this New Year's Eve 2019.
PRAISE JESUS!!!!!!
In light of the times that we are living what confort there is in knowing that there is nothing that can seperate us from the love of God.
Troy Perales yes and Amen
Great passage of scripture!
Who is still listening to this in 2087 even though christianity is illegal in all nations, we've all gone underground and are genuinely winning souls through persuasion, love, & genuine spirit leading instead of flashy "services"?
May 2023…God is sovereign brethren.
Thank you so much for sharing such a much needed reminder! May we hold fast to the Word, which transforms us continuously into the image of He who is the King and Master,....our Lord Jesus Christ!!! Be well.
"...we are counted as sheep and slaughtered..."
For Thee O Lord. Amen.
Amen I was able to share that with my son who is seeking jesus after years of drug and the things of this world keep him in prayer for xaxier
First and second time I saw this video I cried so hard....the spirit of God is most powerful
2021 I've lost count of the times I've listened to this. Even my kids have memoriesd some portions because they hear it frequently. Blessings to everyone who comes here. Greetings from Belgium
Hello Belgium from Saudi Arabia! ☺
I was raised Catholic and to be very honest I really only knew Jesus in name only. I struggled for literally years before I really understood GRACE. It used to drive me crazy because I would hear teachers/preachers talking about grace, but somehow I just couldn't reconcile grace with what I had learned as a Catholic. I remember taking my Bible and going to a community pool and reading and rereading Romans chapter 7 over and over - praying that God would help me understand. It finally sunk in that day and my understanding of who Jesus was and what He did for us changed forever. So as beautiful as Romans 8 is, Romans 7 has a special place in my heart. I am going to try to memorize 7.
DabbaYabbaDo I too was raised a Catholic. I can remember as a young Roman Catholic hearing the 2nd chapter of Acts being read in catechism. To a young imaginative boy it was a electrifying tale that offered great hope of experiencing it. Tongues of flame over the head, speaking in tongues, who would not want to see that happen. I even went several times to the back of St. Anthony church during recess, to read the 2nd chapter of Acts again in the days before the sacrament of Confirmation. The long, dry ceremony in Latin was a great disappointment to me. I even asked a nun afterwards why nothing took place similar to the account of the book of Acts. I do not remember her answer but do remember she sidestepped my question. I can honestly say I was agnostic from that point on because what was taught by the Catholic Church regarding Confirmation did not line up with scripture. I felt very close to God at that age but that closeness fell away due to the disappointment of not receiving the Holy Ghost. Some 25 years later I received the baptism of the Holy Ghost and spoke in tongues. It was a powerful and emotionally moving experience. The trouble is, the traditions of men, in most all denominational Christianity, makes the word of God to no effect.
Mark 7:13 KJVS
[13] Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.
Our Lord was talking about the Pharisees of his day, but I think it applies to many of today's Christian churches.
Perhaps you will visit my website and read about how grace saves us. Luke
www.justifiedfreely.com
Luke Wagner thank you for this TESTimony to the power of God,His Spirit pursuing you and your will to know the truth!!!!
Amen ,to God be the glory
DabbaYabbaDo I was raised as a Catholic too.I just knew Jesus by his name too way back then.I didn’t know why he died on the cross.I thought he was dead.Until I started seeking for the truth.And God says,that “if you seek for me you’ll find me” It was a personal encounter with God that he made his son Jesus Christ be known to me and why he died on the cross.I was never the same since then.
Thanks for this, this encouraged me a lot. I'm still trying hard to fully reconcile! I'll read romans 7!
Romans 7 is an interjection by the Holy Spirit specifically for the Jews, "speaking to those that know the Law" - the non Jew can go straight from R6 to R8, I've never been under the law, and I don't need the confusion that R7 'can' bring if it's not understood correctly in context. (My old man died with Jesus on the cross and I am no longer a sinner, I am a SAINT. Period.)
GREAT JOB!! BEAUTIFULLY PUT TOGETHER. THE VOICE, THE MUSIC, AND THE IMAGE ARE AMAZING. THROUGH THIS I SEE GOD. I HOPE OTHERS DO TO. GOD BLESS.
Fletcher Jackson I feel I truly did
very powerful and re-committed my life to God.....Thanks God you brought me in this greatest chapter in the bible...watched it many times and preached it to myself.
2023 God's word endures forever and ever Amen
I was just thinking about these verses today..every single day, I repeat to myself "not the flesh but the spirit" and that gives me enough courage to get up and pray and read the Bible, without laziness nor excuses. When I accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior and I decided to carry my cross and follow him, I crucified my flesh and I turned around from sin. Therefore I do not live for the flesh anymore but for the spirit. I fight in spirit, I rejoice in spirit, I do all things through the Spirit of God which strengthens me. This is how you fight your battles brothers and sisters, through the Holy Spirit, in Christ, with God that strengthens you. Don't give up, God bless you all!
I can't help but to weep and feel the spirit cry out when I read/hear this. thank you Jesus!!! wow. Abba Father thank you!!!
This is my favorite chapter in the Bible. This chapter changed my life.
Jrod ProductionStudios me too
Here 2024, the Holy Spirit is still pouring out His power in the reading of This Chapter. My favorite 👏👏👏
I'm listening to Romans 8, This is so special to me. I love the way John reads Romans 8. Thank you.
amazing...
a people ruled by our senses, we are a people of the Spirit..
we have Christ in us which is the Hope of all Glory...
hallelujah.. Glory to God!
