CHRIST AS YOUR SAVIOR YOU BECOME PART OF THE FAMILY OF GOD.
LYNETTE> YES.
KENNETH> AND IN THE FAMILY OF GOD WE ALL HAVE... SHOULD BE
INVOLVED WITH DIFFERENT DUTIES JUST LIKE IN THE FAMILY. I

NIGHT, AH, WE HAD TO DO THE
DISHES AND I WOULD EAT REAL FAST...
LYNETTE> (LAUGHS)
KENNETH> ...'CAUSE I HATED TO DRY. AND 'CAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE
DISHWASHERS BACK IN THEM DAYS.
LYNETTE> I KNOW WE DIDN'T.
KENNETH> AND...
LYNETTE> WE WERE THE DISH WASHERS (LAUGHS).
KENNETH> I WAS THE DISH WASHER. THAT'S WHY I'D RATHER WASH
THAN I HAD TO DRY, THAT'S WHY I HURRIED SO I COULD START...

LYNETTE> UH HUH.
KENNETH> THEN YOU HAD TO LET IT DRY OFF...
LYNETTE> UM HMM.
KENNETH> ...LIKE YOU DO A CAR REALLY, NOW... USED TO ANYWAY.
AND THEN YOU HAD TO GO BACK AND...
LYNETTE> BUFF.
KENNETH> ...BUFF IT OFF, YOU KNOW.
LYNETTE> THAT'S RIGHT.
KENNETH> BUT THAT WAS MY CHORES.
LYNETTE> YES.
KENNETH> AND THEN I HAD TO TAKE... I HAD TO MOW THE GRASS.
LYNETTE> UM HMM.
KENNETH> AND SIS HAD CHORES. I KNOW WITH OUR KIDS GROWING
UP THEY HAD THINGS THAT THEY HAD TO DO...
LYNETTE> THAT'S RIGHT.
KENNETH> ...BECAUSE THEY'RE A PART OF THE FAMILY. THEY'RE
RESPONSIBLE FOR THINGS. AND AS BEING A PART OF THE FAMILY
OF GOD WE NEED TO BEGIN TO PLUG IN WITH OUR TALENTS...
LYNETTE> YES.
KENNETH> ...AND WHATEVER WE CAN DO...
LYNETTE> WHEREVER THERE'S A NEED.
KENNETH> ...WHEREVER THERE'S A NEED.
LYNETTE> YES.
KENNETH> SO WHY DON'T WE GO RIGHT NOW WHERE I'M TALKING ON
A SUBJECT "WHERE DO YOU BELONG?"
♪ MUSIC ♪
I WANT TO LOOK AT SOME THINGS FROM THE WORD OF GOD TODAY
ABOUT "BELONGING". NOW, I'M GOING TO USE PAUL AS AN EXAMPLE
HERE BECAUSE HE'S THE ONE WHO TALKS ABOUT THIS. PAUL KNEW
WHERE HE BELONGED. DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOU BELONG? HE
SAID IN ACTS 27:23:
FOR LAST NIGHT AN ANGEL OF THE GOD TO WHOM I BELONG...
HELLO NOW, COME ON:
...AND WHOM I SERVE STOOD BESIDE ME.
PAUL WAS SECURE BECAUSE HE KNEW THAT GOD, THE GREAT I AM,
HE BELONGED WITH HIM. HE WAS SECURE BECAUSE HE KNEW THAT
HE BELONGED WITH EL SHADDAI, THE GOD THAT'S MORE THAN
ENOUGH. HE WAS SECURE IN WHERE HE BELONGED BECAUSE HE
BELONGED WITH JEHOVAH JIREH, THE GOD WHO PROVIDES.
(CONGREGATION: "AMEN.")
HE KNEW WHERE BELONGED BECAUSE HE BELONGED WITH JEHOVAH
RAFFA, THE LORD OUR HEALER OR THE LORD OUR PHYSICIAN.
(CONGREGATION: "AMEN.")
COME ON. GOD IS OUR HEAVENLY FATHER, AND HE LOVES US. YOU
NEED TO GET TO THE POINT, I DON'T CARE IF NOBODY ELSE LOVES
YOU; I DON'T CARE IF NOBODY ELSE CARES ABOUT YOU, YOU CAN
SAY, "I BELONG TO GOD. I'M PART OF THE FAMILY OF GOD. I
CAN BE SECURE. I CAN STAND STRONG. I CAN THROW MY
SHOULDERS BACK AND SAY, 'I'M PART OF THE FAMILY!'"
(CONGREGATION: "AMEN.")
HELLO!
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
YOU KNOW, MANY PEOPLE FEEL INSECURE BECAUSE THEY DON'T FEEL
LIKE THEY BELONG. NOW, YOU CAN COME TO THIS CHURCH AND
DON'T FEEL LIKE YOU BELONG BECAUSE YOU DON'T GET INVOLVED.
YOU KNOW, I'VE HAD PEOPLE SAY, "WELL, I DON'T HAVE NO
FRIENDS." WELL, GO MAKE SOME.
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
IF YOU WANT TO HAVE A FRIEND YOU'VE GOT TO BE
FRIENDLY YOURSELF.
(CONGREGATION: "AMEN.")
HELLO, YOU SEE, PAUL KNEW WHERE HE BELONGED. HE BELONGED
IN THE FAMILY OF GOD WHERE GOD'S POWER WAS AVAILABLE AT ALL
TIMES, ANYWHERE, EVERYWHERE, ALL THE TIME. HE WAS A PART
OF THE FAMILY THAT HAS MORE THAN ENOUGH, THE FAMILY OF GOD.
HE WAS A PART OF THE HEALTHIEST FAMILY IN THE WORLD. GOD'S
FAMILY SHOULD BE HEALTHY.
(CONGREGATION: "AMEN.")
HELLO. GOD, BEING A PART OF GOD'S FAMILY MEANS THAT HE IS
OUR DELIVERER, HE'S OUR PROVIDER, HE'S OUR PROTECTOR;
AND THE LIST GOES ON. YOU THERE?
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
TURN TO YOUR NEIGHBOR AND SAY, "WHERE DO YOU BELONG?"
(CONGREGATION REPEATS: "WHERE DO YOU BELONG?")
NOW TURN TO THEM AGAIN AND SAY, "I'M A PART OF THE FAMILY
OF GOD. I BELONG TO THE FAMILY OF GOD."
(CONGREGATION REPEATS: "I'M A PART OF THE FAMILY OF GOD.
I BELONG TO THE FAMILY OF GOD.")
COME ON NOW. YOU SEE, BECAUSE WE HAVE BEEN BORN-AGAIN WE
BELONG TO GOD. WE BELONG IN THE FAMILY OF GOD. WHAT IS THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF THE HEAD OF THE FAMILY?
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
TO TAKE CARE OF THE FAMILY, TO LEAD THE FAMILY, TO PROVIDE
FOR THE FAMILY. THAT'S WHAT GOD DOES BECAUSE WE'RE PART
OF HIS FAMILY. YOU KNOW, IF YOU... IF YOU HAVE POSSESSION
OF SOMETHING IT'S YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO TAKE CARE OF
IT. HOW MANY HAVE A CAR THAT BELONGS TO YOU?
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
WHOSE RESPONSIBILITY IS IT TO TAKE CARE OF THAT CAR?
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
YEAH, IT AIN'T NOBODY ELSE'S. NOW YOU MAY... YOU MAY TELL
ONE OF THE KIDS TO GO OUT AND WASH IT, BUT YOU'RE STILL
TAKING THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR TAKING CARE OF THE CAR.
THE GARAGE IS NOT GOING TO COME DOWN AND GET THE CAR AND
BRING IT IN, AND DO AN ANNUAL CHECKUP ON IT. IT'S YOUR
RESPONSIBILITY TO TAKE IT WHEN IT'S TIME TO GET A CHECKUP.
HELLO.
(CONGREGATION: "AMEN.")
SINCE YOU BELONG TO GOD AND PART OF HIS FAMILY HE IS TAKEN
ON THE RESPONSIBILITY OF TAKING CARE OF YOU.
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
THERE'S NO USE IN YOU FEELING LONELY, AND THAT YOU DON'T
BELONG. WHENEVER THAT FEELING COMES OR IT TRIES TO COME
ON YOU, YOU NEED TO JUST SCREAM OUT WITH A LOUD VOICE,
"I BELONG TO GOD, I'M NOT ALONE! HE WILL TAKE CARE OF ME."
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
NOW, PAUL KNEW WHERE HE BELONGED. HE BELONGED IN THE
BODY OF CHRIST. EPHESIANS 2:19, I'M GOING TO READ THE
MESSAGE BIBLE HERE:
I WANT YOU TO NOTICE JESUS IS THE CORNERSTONE. THEY DIDN'T
KNOW WHAT I WAS GOING TO PREACH THIS MORNING. RICH REACHED
BACK AND GOT EUGENE'S SONG THERE. I LOVE THAT SONG. HOW
MANY OF YOU LIKE... REMEMBER THAT SONG?
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
AND WE SANG IT THIS MORNING, THE CORNERSTONE. BUT REMEMBER
PETER SAID WE ARE LIVELY STONES BEING BUILT TOGETHER IN THE
FAMILY OF GOD. EACH ONE OF US FITS INTO THE FAMILY OF GOD.
THERE ARE NO MISFITS. YOU BELONG IN THE FAMILY OF GOD. AND
HE'LL FIND A PLACE TO FIT YOU IN. NOW, YOU KNOW, I WAS
WATCHING THEM AS THEY PUT SOME ROCK DOWN HERE,
YOU KNOW, ON THE YOUTH BUILDING , YOU KNOW FIRST OF ALL
THERE'S JUST THAT METAL POST OUT THERE. BUT THEN HOW MANY
EVER WATCH THEM; THEY PUT THE ROCK AROUND IT. RIGHT?
I NOTICED THAT THEY HAD TO GET ROCK AND SOMETIMES HAD TO
CHIP IT OFF TO SHAPE IT TO FIT IT IN THE PLACE THAT IT'S
SUPPOSED TO BE. ANYBODY EVER WATCH ANYBODY DO THAT?
ANYBODY EVER WATCH... I WATCHED... WHEN I WAS ASSOCIATE
PASTOR I WATCHED A BRICK LAYER LAYING THE BRICK AND THEY
GET CLOSE TO THE END; NOW A WHOLE BRICK WON'T FIT IN
THERE; THEY'RE COMING UP TO THE CORNER. THEY GOT A TOOL
THEY TAKE IT AND THEY CUT THAT BRICK OFF AND MAKE IT FIT
RIGHT IN THERE PERFECTLY. HEY, THAT'S WHAT GOD DOES WITH
YOU. YOU MAY HAVE SOME ROUGH EDGES. YOU MAY HAVE SOME
ROUGH CORNERS, BUT HE KNOCKS THEM OFF OF YOU
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
AND FITS YOU IN WHERE HE NEEDS YOU IN HIS BODY,
THE BODY OF CHRIST.
(CONGREGATION: "AMEN.")
YOU, IF YOU'VE BEEN BORN-AGAIN BY THE BLOOD OF THE LORD
JESUS CHRIST, YOU BELONG IN THE BODY. YOU HAVE A PLACE
IN THE BODY. I DON'T CARE WHERE YOU COME FROM, WHAT YOU'VE
DONE, WHAT YOUR NAME IS, WHAT YOU LOOK LIKE, WHAT COLOR
YOU ARE, HOW MUCH EDUCATION YOU HAVE, WHETHER YOU DON'T
HAVE ANY EDUCATION AT ALL WE ARE ALL PART OF
THE FAMILY OF GOD!
(CONGREGATION CHEERS)
WE ALL BELONG TOGETHER!
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
AND IF EVERYBODY GETS IN THEIR PLACE AND FITS TOGETHER,
MAN LOOK WHAT WE CAN ACCOMPLISH!
(CONGREGATION CHEERS)
REMEMBER IN THE OLD TESTAMENT AT THE TOWER OF BABEL, WHEN
THEY ALL GOT TOGETHER WHERE THEY BELONGED TOGETHER, GOD
SAID, ["HEY, I'VE GOT TO DO SOMETHING HERE."] BECAUSE HE
KNEW WHEN YOU COME TOGETHER AND YOU ALL BELONG TOGETHER,
AND YOU ALL HAVE THE... YOU'RE ON THE SAME PAGE; YOU ALL
HAVE THE SAME DEFINITION; YOU ALL HAVE THE SAME VISION;
YOU'RE ALL SAYING THE SAME THING; I WANT TO TELL YOU WHAT
SOMETHING STARTS HAPPENING.
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
THAT'S WHAT'S GOING... THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE
AT RHEMA. WE ARE COMING TOGETHER WITH THE VISION. WE'RE
PUTTING IT ON THAT SCREEN. EVERY SUNDAY WE'RE SHOWING YOU
THE VISION OF RHEMA BIBLE CHURCH. AND IT'S WHERE THE WORD
IS PREACHED. THAT'S WHERE WE HAVE A GOOD YOUTH AND
CHILDREN'S PROGRAM AND A GOOD MUSIC PROGRAM. THAT'S WHY
WE'RE ASKING EVERYBODY TO GET INVOLVED BECAUSE WE ALL
BELONG HERE. YOU BELONG IN THIS PLACE. GOD BROUGHT YOU
HERE. EVEN IF YOU'RE JUST BROUGHT HERE AS A STUDENT. GOD
BROUGHT YOU HERE FOR A REASON!
(CONGREGATION CHEERS)
HE'S GOT A PLACE FOR YOU. HE'S GOING TO FIT YOU IN AND
GET... THAT'S WHY WE TELL YOU TO GET INVOLVED. AND I'M GOING
TO TELL YOU WHAT, SOMETHING'S GOING TO TAKE PLACE AROUND HERE.
(CONGREGATION CHEERS)
YOU ARE A PART OF HIS KINGDOM. YOU BELONG IN THE FAMILY
OF GOD, AND YOU HAVE WORK TO DO.
I KNOW, ALL OF US... MOST OF US GREW UP IN A FAMILY. I...
I HAD, IN MY FAMILY I HAD CHORES I HAD TO... ANYBODY THAT
WAY? I HAD TO KEEP THE GRASS MOWED. YEAH. AT SUPPER
TIME... IT'S DINNER NOW, BUT WE CALLED IT SUPPER BACK...
ANYBODY... ANYBODY KNOW WHEN WE USED TO CALL IT SUPPER?
(CONGREGATION: "AMEN.")
IT WAS BREAKFAST, LUNCH... I MEAN IT WAS BREAKFAST, LUNCH
AND SUPPER, YEAH; SUPPER, YEAH. YEAH, BREAKFAST, DINNER
AND SUPPER. I'LL GET HERE IN A MINUTE. I'M THINKING ABOUT
WHAT I'M GOING TO SAY. BUT WE GOT... WE HAD... AND I
HAD TO WASH... MY SISTER AND I, THERE'S JUST THE TWO OF US.
SO, WE HAD TO CLEAN THE KITCHEN EVERY NIGHT. SO I WOULD
EAT REAL FAST SO I CAN WASH 'CAUSE I HATED DRYING.
(CONGREGATION LAUGHS)
I STILL DON'T LIKE TO DRY.
I'LL... IF I EAT A BOWL OF CEREAL
OR SOMETHING I'LL GO WASH THE BOWL OUT THEN I PUT A COUPLE
TOWELS DOWN AND I JUST SET IT ON THE SINK AND SOMEBODY ELSE
CAN TAKE CARE OF DRYING IT.
(CONGREGATION LAUGHS)
THAT'S THEIR... BUT WE ALL HAVE RESPONSIBILITIES. SEE, IN...
IN THE FAMILY. HOW MANY OF YOU GREW UP IN A FAMILY WHERE
YOU HAD SEVERAL SIBLINGS, AND EVERYBODY HAD A CERTAIN JOB
TO DO? OH, THERE WAS A JOB I HATED, I DIDN'T LIKE TO DO IT,
AND I GUARANTEE I'M GOING TO HAVE SOME HELP WITH THIS WITH
SOME OF MY... SOME OF THE MORE MATURE PEOPLE LIKE ME.
WE'RE NOT OLD, WE'RE JUST MATURE.
(CONGREGATION LAUGHS)
WE HAD WHAT YOU CAL LINOLEUM FLOORS. ANYBODY KNOW ABOUT
LINOLEUM FLOOR?
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
AND WE HAD SOMETHING CALLED JOHNSON'S PASTE WAX.
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
YOU GET DOWN ON YOUR HANDS AND KNEES AND YOU PUT THAT ON,
AND THEN YOU HAVE TO WAIT 'TIL IT FORMS... THAT WHITE COAT
DRIES. NOW YOU'VE GOT TO GET BACK DOWN THERE ON YOUR HANDS
AND KNEES AND YOU'VE GOT TO POLISH... POLISH IT OFF.
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
OH, I SEE I'VE GOT SOME HELP. I'VE GOT SOME PEOPLE OUT
THERE WITH ME (LAUGHS).
(CONGREGATION LAUGHS)
THAT WAS A CHORE. THAT WAS MY CHORE. THAT WAS PART OF MY
FAMILY CHORE TO DO THE KITCHEN AND THE BATHROOM BECAUSE
THEY HAD LINOLEUM IN BOTH THOSE PLACES AND I HAD TO DO IT. AND
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT, I GET... I GET UPSET IF SOMEBODY...
I JUST GOT THROUGH PUTTING THAT POLISH DOWN AND SOMEBODY
WANTS TO COME WALK ON MY FLOOR.
(CONGREGATION LAUGHS)
WE ALL BELONG TO THE FAMILY OF GOD.
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
AND WE ALL HAVE A PLACE.
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
AND IF WE JUST STAY STEADY WHERE WE ARE IN THE LOCAL FAMILY;
SEE, WE'VE GOT THE BODY OF CHRIST (AND THAT'S IN MY NEXT...
THAT'S WHAT'S NEXT); WE'RE IN THE BODY OF CHRIST, OKAY. BUT
WE HAVE A LOCAL BODY AND WE NEED TO GET INVOLVED BECAUSE
WE BELONG TO CHRIST. YOU KNOW, SOME PEOPLE SAY, "WELL, I'M
SO UNWORTHY." ARE YOU BORN-AGAIN? GOD NEVER MADE AN
UNWORTHY PERSON.
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
WHEN YOU WERE BORN-AGAIN BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST YOU
BECAME WORTHY, YOU BECAME SOMETHING, YOU BECAME SOMEBODY!
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
SO QUIT LETTING THE DEVIL TELL YOU THAT YOU'RE UNWORTHY,
AND THAT YOU DON'T BELONG BECAUSE OF YOUR PAST. HEY, YOU
DON'T HAVE A PAST!
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
THE WORD OF GOD SAYS THAT WHEN YOU BECOME A PART OF THE
FAMILY OF GOD THE WORD OF GOD SAYS THAT THAT
DOESN'T EXIST ANYMORE!
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
THE PERSON THAT MADE ALL OF THOSE MISTAKES, THE PERSON THAT
DID ALL OF THOSE DEEDS IS DEAD!
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
GONE! DONE AWAY WITH! YOU BECOME A BRAND NEW PERSON IN CHRIST
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
WITH A BRAND NEW BOOK TO WRITE ON THE PAGES.
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
THEY'RE BLANK. YOU'RE A PART OF THE FAMILY OF GOD NOW.
YOU CAN WRITE A NEW BOOK
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
AND YOU CAN PUT ON THERE WHATEVER YOU... I PUT MY NAME
"KENNETH HAGIN, A PART OF THE FAMILY OF GOD.
(CONGREGATION: "AMEN.")
THE OLD KENNETH HAGIN DIED. THE NEW KENNETH HAGIN IS ALIVE
IN THE FAMILY OF GOD. I BELONG AND I'M GOING TO DO WHAT GOD
TOLD ME TO DO!" AND I CAN CONTINUE WRITING ALL OF THE
THINGS THAT GOD SAID.
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
GOD SAID I'M HEALED. GOD SAID I'M WHOLE. GOD SAID I'M THE
RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN CHRIST.
(CONGREGATION: "AMEN.")
GOD SAID THAT I CAN HAVE WHATEVER HE SAYS BELONGS TO ME.
(CONGREGATION: "AMEN.")
WHOO!
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
GLORY TO GOD. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU I'VE DONE GOT MYSELF
EXCITED PREACHING ABOUT BEING A PART OF THE FAMILY!
(CONGREGATION CHEERS)
COME ON NOW. HEY, YOU KNOW, DAD SAID AGAIN IN THAT... IN
THAT SAME BOOK KNOWING WHAT BELONGS TO YOU , MANY
CHRISTIANS DON'T KNOW THAT ALL THE BLESSINGS ARE ALREADY
THEIRS. AND THEY'RE PRAYING AND FASTING TO GET THE
BLESSING. WHY DO YOU HAVE TO PRAY AND FAST TO GET
SOMETHING THAT ALREADY BELONGS TO YOU?
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
IF I GOT A LAWNMOWER SITTING IN THE GARAGE I DON'T HAVE TO
SIT IN THE HOUSE AND SAY, "WELL, I SURE WISH MY LAWN WOULD
GET MOWED. IF I HAD A... YOU KNOW, I NEED TO MOW MY LAWN."
YOU DON'T HAVE TO SIT IN THERE AND THINK ABOUT IT. ALL YOU
GOT TO DO IS GO OUT THERE AND CRANK THE THING UP. IT
BELONGS... IT'S ALREADY... IT BELONGS TO YOU. TOO MANY
CHRISTIANS ARE TRYING TO GET WHAT ALREADY BELONGS TO THEM.
WHY? BECAUSE WE'RE PART OF THE FAMILY OF GOD.
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
GLORY TO GOD!
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT Y'ALL, I DONE GOT HAPPY TODAY.
(CONGREGATION: "AMEN.")
I'M PART OF THE GREATEST, THE BEST, THE BIGGEST FAMILY
IN THE WORLD.
(CONGREGATION RESPONDS)
AND IT CAN'T BE TAKEN AWAY FROM ME.
SAY THIS WITH ME:
I AM A PART OF THE FAMILY OF GOD.
CONGREGATION> I AM A PART OF THE FAMILY OF GOD
PASTOR> GOD IS THE FATHER OF THIS FAMILY
CONGREGATION> GOD IS THE FATHER OF THIS FAMILY.

YOU NEED TO BE IN GOD'S FAMILY. IF YOU ARE THERE WATCHING
