The profits message rich and
wisdom and filled with true is
00:00:08.77\00:00:13.51

00:00:16.78\00:00:19.18
Joining us now on 3ABN for

>> Hello and welcome back
to 3 ABN summer Camp meeting.
00:00:30.36\00:00:33.53
We're so glad you joined
us. Good morning to you at home.
00:00:33.53\00:00:37.63
And good morning to you here
in person audience. How are you
00:00:37.63\00:00:40.90
this morning?
00:00:40.90\00:00:43.00
Praise the Lord.
00:00:43.00\00:00:45.41
I want to ask you at home.
How was your breakfast a home?
00:00:45.41\00:00:49.38
It doesn't compare to what
we had here. Can't meeting,
00:00:49.38\00:00:52.05
right?
00:00:52.05\00:00:53.68
We have been spirits. The
Fed to, though, haven't we? Wow.
00:00:53.68\00:00:57.22
What a blessing. You know, we
have a little bit of rain here
00:00:57.22\00:00:59.89
yesterday. And while the clouds
cleared out, beautiful sunshine
00:00:59.89\00:01:04.06
this morning, right cooler
temperatures here in southern
00:01:04.06\00:01:06.80
Illinois. We praise the lord
for that because we want you
00:01:06.80\00:01:09.33
all to move here. We have
the perfect weather here in
00:01:09.33\00:01:12.57
southern Illinois.
00:01:12.57\00:01:14.24
I have the privilege, though,
this morning of introducing my
00:01:14.24\00:01:16.81
wife, Jill. It's a real
privilege. You know, we first
00:01:16.81\00:01:19.94
met in 1996. So we've
known each other about 27 years.
00:01:19.94\00:01:24.85
The married 21 years this
September. But it's been a
00:01:24.85\00:01:28.02
tremendous privilege to
be in ministry together.
00:01:28.02\00:01:31.59
We have a lot of people, I
should say. Some people say,
00:01:31.59\00:01:34.69
hey, so what's it like the kind
of work together said, okay.
00:01:34.69\00:01:38.03
Haha,
00:01:38.03\00:01:39.19
you want to know how it is?
00:01:39.19\00:01:41.86
You do not really.
00:01:41.86\00:01:44.27
It's fantastic. You know, it's
a blessing. My wife's office is
00:01:44.27\00:01:47.47
just down the hall and to
be in ministry together. What a
00:01:47.47\00:01:50.67
privilege. What an absolute
blessing. And it's a blessing
00:01:50.67\00:01:54.48
to have you as our 3 been
family here and you join us as
00:01:54.48\00:01:58.18
well. You know, Joe,
00:01:58.18\00:01:59.91
she has a love of the
Bible. She loves the scriptures.
00:01:59.91\00:02:03.45
She has a deep love
and care for others,
00:02:03.45\00:02:07.19
but she has a deep love for the
Lord Jesus Christ and the such
00:02:07.19\00:02:11.09
a blessing. You know, as
you see Ron Savage school panel,
00:02:11.09\00:02:13.56
I'm sure quite often. And
she so enjoys studying for Sabha
00:02:13.56\00:02:17.33
school. She takes a lot of time
into all those lessons. And she
00:02:17.33\00:02:21.64
just is really fun because
she'd be there on the couch and
00:02:21.64\00:02:24.64
studying for the upcoming South
school. Less than it should be
00:02:24.64\00:02:27.68
safe. Greg, this little tidbit
wound. I'm here all my points
00:02:27.68\00:02:31.95
right here, my list. And so
I'm blessed. I get to hear all I
00:02:31.95\00:02:36.55
could hear about 7
school before you all do.
00:02:36.55\00:02:39.65
But I'm blessed. I'm really
blessed to have her as my wife
00:02:39.65\00:02:42.39
into the ministry together.
But they're going to something
00:02:42.39\00:02:44.93
a little difference to the
music, the next he's actually
00:02:44.93\00:02:47.03
going to have Tim Parton play
at the end of her message and
00:02:47.03\00:02:50.63
her message today
is resting in his love.
00:02:50.63\00:02:56.97
>> Thank you, sweetheart.
00:02:56.97\00:02:58.51
[MUSIC]
00:02:58.51\00:03:01.64
Almost kids.
00:03:01.64\00:03:04.28
We'll save that for later.
00:03:04.28\00:03:07.65
What an incredible blessing
to be together at 3 being can't
00:03:07.65\00:03:11.89
mean is it not?
00:03:11.89\00:03:13.42
I've been so my soul has
been spiritually enriched by the
00:03:13.42\00:03:17.69
messages that I've
heard. Thank you, Pastor James.
00:03:17.69\00:03:20.66
The message we just heard on
Jose with powerful praise the
00:03:20.66\00:03:23.93
Lord,
00:03:23.93\00:03:25.07
my privilege to
speak on the book of
00:03:25.07\00:03:28.30
you all read the bulletin.
That's an eye on. That's right.
00:03:28.30\00:03:31.77
Praise the Lord arrests.
Teen in his love has great
00:03:31.77\00:03:35.54
referenced. I like
lists. You all know that from 72
00:03:35.54\00:03:39.98
pounds.
00:03:39.98\00:03:41.15
So today we're going to have
7 keys to discover how you and I
00:03:41.15\00:03:46.79
can rest in his love
from the book of Zephonites.
00:03:46.79\00:03:51.69
Before we do that
and ask you a question,
00:03:51.69\00:03:54.83
are you
00:03:54.83\00:03:56.20
at rest?
00:03:56.20\00:03:58.73
Are you secure
in your salvation?
00:03:58.73\00:04:02.54
Do you ever have worry
00:04:02.54\00:04:04.51
in your heart?
00:04:04.51\00:04:06.44
Do you ever feel shame or guilt?
00:04:06.44\00:04:10.38
Do you struggle
with condemnation?
00:04:10.38\00:04:13.88
Are you at rest in your
relationships, with other
00:04:13.88\00:04:16.85
people,
00:04:16.85\00:04:17.99
with your spouse, with your
children, with your parents or
00:04:17.99\00:04:22.29
co-workers or
neighbors are church members?
00:04:22.29\00:04:28.40
Are you completely at rest?
00:04:28.40\00:04:31.30
If I'm being honest
with you, I don't think I am
00:04:31.30\00:04:34.47
all the time
00:04:34.47\00:04:36.00
in all times in all
places. But I want to be
00:04:36.00\00:04:40.74
today. We will explore
ways that we can find rest in
00:04:40.74\00:04:45.55
Christ. Let's pray.
00:04:45.55\00:04:48.35
Holy Father, we come before
you in the name of TCS. Grateful
00:04:48.35\00:04:52.75
for you were done
right now. I asked
00:04:52.75\00:04:56.02
so you would hide me behind
the cross Jesus. Would you be
00:04:56.02\00:05:01.70
uplifted unseen and glorified
which your word come alive and
00:05:01.70\00:05:07.14
speak to us and speak to
our hearts and we thank you.
00:05:07.14\00:05:11.27
And we will give you all the
praising glory in Jesus name.
00:05:11.27\00:05:15.81
Amen.
00:05:15.81\00:05:17.48
They say that confession
is good for the soul. You know
00:05:17.48\00:05:21.82
this and h*** o* the
00:05:21.82\00:05:25.49
reputation.
00:05:25.49\00:05:26.79
So I want to make a
confession today to you all.
00:05:26.79\00:05:30.99
I have always
been a happy person
00:05:30.99\00:05:33.96
even from when I was a little
child growing up teenage years
00:05:33.96\00:05:38.20
into adulthood. In fact, people
would tease me and they say,
00:05:38.20\00:05:41.17
Jill, you always even wake
up happy. And that is true.
00:05:41.17\00:05:45.27
I literally wake up happy
and I'm happy throughout the day
00:05:45.27\00:05:48.48
and I've always been that way.
00:05:48.48\00:05:51.71
But I went through a season
00:05:51.71\00:05:54.25
and a time in my life
00:05:54.25\00:05:57.02
of depression
00:05:57.02\00:05:58.85
a time when there was darkness
a time when I could not see the
00:05:58.85\00:06:04.39
light
00:06:04.39\00:06:05.69
and things did not.
00:06:05.69\00:06:07.30
I feel
00:06:07.30\00:06:08.63
or sea men to be at rest that
we're talking about here today.
00:06:08.63\00:06:13.94
I keep a journal not
consistently, but from time to
00:06:13.94\00:06:17.14
time
00:06:17.14\00:06:18.24
and I want to read you,
this is a personal entry.
00:06:18.24\00:06:23.11
I want to read you an entry
from that journal. This is from
00:06:23.11\00:06:26.92
that time when I was not
rest and that time when I was
00:06:26.92\00:06:31.65
struggling with darkness,
00:06:31.65\00:06:36.83
I come to you.
00:06:36.83\00:06:40.53
Mt.
00:06:40.53\00:06:41.96
Bleeding.
00:06:41.96\00:06:45.57
Somehow not enough.
00:06:45.57\00:06:48.04
What I do is not enough.
00:06:48.04\00:06:50.17
A Christian should
have it all together.
00:06:50.17\00:06:52.91
Aren't I a Christ follower?
00:06:52.91\00:06:55.68
Perhaps not.
00:06:55.68\00:06:57.35
If I feel this way,
00:06:57.35\00:06:59.68
the shame becomes oppressive.
00:06:59.68\00:07:03.28
It's easier not to feel.
00:07:03.28\00:07:05.79
I pushed the thoughts away,
00:07:05.79\00:07:09.06
swallowed the lump in my
throat. Will my mind to other
00:07:09.06\00:07:14.46
thoughts?
00:07:14.46\00:07:15.86
It's better not to focus on
how I feel better. Not to think
00:07:15.86\00:07:20.27
better. Not to question
00:07:20.27\00:07:23.07
because it only brings pain
00:07:23.07\00:07:25.51
and I don't have time for pain.
00:07:25.51\00:07:28.34
God, I'm scared.
00:07:28.34\00:07:30.41
If I truly look inside,
allow myself to feel what do I
00:07:30.41\00:07:33.52
discover?
00:07:33.52\00:07:34.75
Who is Jill? Really?
00:07:34.75\00:07:38.25
What if it's
not pretty and sign?
00:07:38.25\00:07:40.89
It's better to lock it away.
00:07:40.89\00:07:43.32
You can do this. Put on
your game face. Pretend that
00:07:43.32\00:07:48.00
everything is OK.
00:07:48.00\00:07:49.86
I cannot show weakness. I
will not show weakness. Our be
00:07:49.86\00:07:56.00
strong.
00:07:56.00\00:07:57.84
I would be fine
00:07:57.84\00:07:59.77
yet. I'm dying.
00:07:59.77\00:08:02.91
Insight
00:08:02.91\00:08:06.68
had not
00:08:06.68\00:08:08.28
continue.
00:08:08.28\00:08:10.82
That was from a time of darkness
00:08:10.82\00:08:14.69
in my life
00:08:14.69\00:08:17.19
and you might not have
experienced anything like that
00:08:17.19\00:08:20.00
in your life. But if I'm guess
seen I would say everybody in
00:08:20.00\00:08:23.80
this room
00:08:23.80\00:08:25.07
and you watching at home
headaches Tyrion stat one point
00:08:25.07\00:08:29.17
or another in your life.
The mask of good Christianity.
00:08:29.17\00:08:34.04
We put it on, do we not?
We coming to church and we say
00:08:34.04\00:08:37.18
happy 7th. How are you? And
we take a going to be a good
00:08:37.18\00:08:40.22
Christian. Hi, I'm doing great.
00:08:40.22\00:08:43.69
Is that really how we are?
00:08:43.69\00:08:45.22
>> Is that really how we feel
inside? And yet we try to pull
00:08:45.22\00:08:48.79
ourselves up by our bootstraps
and put on the facade of
00:08:48.79\00:08:52.49
Christianity
00:08:52.49\00:08:54.83
when we are maybe
not really at rest.
00:08:54.83\00:08:59.10
Have you ever felt insecure?
00:08:59.10\00:09:01.40
Have you ever
been angrier irritated?
00:09:01.40\00:09:03.91
Have you ever been skittish
or afraid? Have you ever been
00:09:03.91\00:09:07.38
tense or bitter? Have you ever
faced the death of a loved one?
00:09:07.38\00:09:13.25
Have you ever dealt with divorce
00:09:13.25\00:09:15.78
or loss?
00:09:15.78\00:09:17.29
Our separation from friends
00:09:17.29\00:09:21.66
today. We're going to look at
how you and I can find discover
00:09:21.66\00:09:27.23
encounter rest in Christ 7 Keys
to finding that risk from the
00:09:27.23\00:09:33.94
book and Stephan I a before
we do that. Let's just give a
00:09:33.94\00:09:36.87
brief overview of Zephon.
I it's a very short book.
00:09:36.87\00:09:39.81
Only 3 chapters. If you're
looking for it, it's after a
00:09:39.81\00:09:45.08
backache and before Haggi I
we're going to spend her time
00:09:45.08\00:09:48.88
in. Stephanie, I so you welcome
to open up and look there,
00:09:48.88\00:09:52.02
Stephan Ions f an Iowan verse
one. Obviously he's a prophet.
00:09:52.02\00:09:56.29
But did you know he was
also royalty? He was a great,
00:09:56.29\00:09:59.63
great, great and
son of King Hezekiah.
00:09:59.63\00:10:04.73
Stephanie Prophesied doom,
the reign of King Josiah. He was
00:10:04.73\00:10:10.04
the last good King
of Israel of Judah.
00:10:10.04\00:10:14.58
Now about 100 years before
this would be in 7.22. BC the 10
00:10:14.58\00:10:20.58
Northern Kingdoms. The
nation of Israel was taken and
00:10:20.58\00:10:25.52
dispersed because of their
apostasy because of the day or
00:10:25.52\00:10:29.79
idolatry. Now we come down
around 100 years to the time of
00:10:29.79\00:10:34.30
Josiah. This is mid 600 BC
00:10:34.30\00:10:37.77
and we find the prophet Zephon
Maya Prophesying during that
00:10:37.77\00:10:40.97
very same time. And
what's amazing to me is that the
00:10:40.97\00:10:43.61
people of Judah should
have learned the lessons that
00:10:43.61\00:10:47.81
happened over here in Israel.
Should they have not? They
00:10:47.81\00:10:50.55
realize that Israel had been
in the pasta. See Israel had
00:10:50.55\00:10:53.58
worship idols. Israel had done
their own thing and they had
00:10:53.58\00:10:58.72
been completely taken
00:10:58.72\00:11:02.09
and you see the judgment of God
on that nation. And yet we come
00:11:02.09\00:11:05.56
down to Judah maybe 100 years
later and they are on the brink
00:11:05.56\00:11:10.43
of more and spiritual collapse.
00:11:10.43\00:11:14.64
The nation of Judah is morally
and spiritually bankrupt.
00:11:14.64\00:11:19.31
They participated in foreign
called stay worship canaanite
00:11:19.31\00:11:23.24
gods
00:11:23.24\00:11:25.25
at this time is when
God called Zephon. I a
00:11:25.25\00:11:28.82
to prophesied morning. If you
look at the theme of the book
00:11:28.82\00:11:33.29
is Fun. I it's justice on
this side and over here we have
00:11:33.29\00:11:38.33
Mercy. I love Pastor James
talked about that. Getting not
00:11:38.33\00:11:41.80
justice and mercy. We have the
justice to judgment. Theirs is
00:11:41.80\00:11:46.97
warning of impending judgment.
You find in the book of Stephan
00:11:46.97\00:11:50.91
I a but over here we see God
calling to his people re pants,
00:11:50.91\00:11:56.28
which you turn back to me.
Would you turn away from your
00:11:56.28\00:11:59.75
idol worship and those evil
things and turn back to worship
00:11:59.75\00:12:04.92
me?
00:12:04.92\00:12:06.25
If we look at the outline
of the book deaf and I to me,
00:12:06.25\00:12:09.42
it's kind of divided into 5
parts. If you start all the way
00:12:09.42\00:12:12.49
over here, part one is chapter
one. And this is a warning.
00:12:12.49\00:12:16.80
If you're a chapter one, it's
warning of impending judgment.
00:12:16.80\00:12:21.14
The whole thing judgment on
Judah, judgment on Drew slum
00:12:21.14\00:12:25.27
judgment on the heave in.
Then you come over here to part
00:12:25.27\00:12:28.34
2. Now, this is chapter 2,
the first 3 verses and it is an
00:12:28.34\00:12:32.91
appeal for repentance and
appeal for real reformation.
00:12:32.91\00:12:38.69
Then we come to part 3. This
is the latter half of Chapter 2
00:12:38.69\00:12:42.72
and its judgment again. But
this time not on the people of
00:12:42.72\00:12:46.33
God. This is the judgment
on the 4 and the heat. Even
00:12:46.33\00:12:49.83
nations. We see actually the 5
full judgment, the philistines,
00:12:49.83\00:12:54.24
the moabite, the ammonites, the
Ethiopians and the Assyrians.
00:12:54.24\00:12:59.71
Then we come to Chapter
00:12:59.71\00:13:01.74
4
00:13:01.74\00:13:02.98
and this is the beginning
of I'm sorry, part for I'm not
00:13:02.98\00:13:06.88
confused. Part for this is the
beginning of Chapter 3 and it
00:13:06.88\00:13:10.39
is this universal judgment.
By time we get down verse 8,
00:13:10.39\00:13:14.42
the judgment is falling on
everyone but it doesn't stop
00:13:14.42\00:13:16.83
there. The book doesn't stop
there if it started and stopped
00:13:16.83\00:13:19.86
in Zephonites 3, 8,
00:13:19.86\00:13:22.00
where we are hoping
00:13:22.00\00:13:24.17
but it doesn't stop there.
We have a part 5 and that comes
00:13:24.17\00:13:27.34
the latter. Half of Chapter
3, which is incredible. It's
00:13:27.34\00:13:32.27
reformation. Re Penn, 10's
followed by this culminating
00:13:32.27\00:13:38.68
ringing declaration of joy.
00:13:38.68\00:13:41.58
There's joy from God's people
over their deliverance and
00:13:41.58\00:13:46.42
there's joy from God because
his people to people that he
00:13:46.42\00:13:51.23
loves have turned back to him.
00:13:51.23\00:13:55.60
So let's look at those 70's
for discovering rest in Christ.
00:13:55.60\00:14:02.20
7 Keys from the book of
Fun. I Am Keen Number one. We're
00:14:02.20\00:14:05.91
going to overhear key number
one is to allow God to caught
00:14:05.91\00:14:11.38
out the idols from your life.
00:14:11.38\00:14:16.02
So what's the number
one? We're going to practice
00:14:16.02\00:14:17.79
together. Allow God to caught
out the idols from your life.
00:14:17.79\00:14:24.23
We allow God to do that.
Work runs F an Iowan verse 4.
00:14:24.23\00:14:28.60
I was stretch out my hand.
This is God talking. I'm going
00:14:28.60\00:14:32.97
to stretch out
my hand against who,
00:14:32.97\00:14:35.64
Judy. This is God's people.
Judgment Day is coming up on
00:14:35.64\00:14:39.64
the church. I was stretch
out my hand against Judah
00:14:39.64\00:14:43.58
against all the inhabitants of
Jerusalem. I will cut off every
00:14:43.58\00:14:49.08
trace of bail. These are
the idols were talking about our
00:14:49.08\00:14:53.92
cutoff every trace of bail from
this place. The names of the
00:14:53.92\00:14:57.43
idolatrous priest with a
pagan priest jumped out of or 6.
00:14:57.43\00:15:01.70
Those who have turned back from
following the Lord and have not
00:15:01.70\00:15:06.97
sought the Lord
nor inquired of him.
00:15:06.97\00:15:11.04
Do you want to experience rest
00:15:11.04\00:15:14.18
in your life?
00:15:14.18\00:15:15.88
You and I need to allow God
to take those things out of our
00:15:15.88\00:15:20.92
lives.
00:15:20.92\00:15:22.55
Separate us from him.
00:15:22.55\00:15:25.89
Amos chapter 3 verse 3 says
can to act together and less.
00:15:25.89\00:15:29.96
They are agreed and we always
refer to this. Is marriage
00:15:29.96\00:15:32.89
doing not you need to marry a
Christian or a fellow believer
00:15:32.89\00:15:36.83
and of course said is true.
But I think it has a deeper
00:15:36.83\00:15:40.10
meaning he can we walk with God,
00:15:40.10\00:15:43.34
can we have rest in our soul
and in our spirit, if there are
00:15:43.34\00:15:47.94
things in our lives that
we hold firm got idols that we
00:15:47.94\00:15:52.48
keep in place of God, things
that we think are I just don't
00:15:52.48\00:15:56.52
want to give it up
in. I can't give it up.
00:15:56.52\00:15:59.89
Of course, we can't change our
hearts. There's nothing we can
00:15:59.89\00:16:03.43
do to cut out the idols.
But you and I can make a choice
00:16:03.43\00:16:07.20
to allow God to do. The
work said only God can do in our
00:16:07.20\00:16:13.03
hearts and in our lives.
You know, discipline. This is
00:16:13.03\00:16:17.64
painful, is it not?
00:16:17.64\00:16:19.37
But it can be re store a team,
00:16:19.37\00:16:23.81
the process of cutting the
idols from our hearts and lives
00:16:23.81\00:16:28.35
sometimes painful and
it sometimes does supplant.
00:16:28.35\00:16:32.45
But it's the story to
have. This is where we see God's
00:16:32.45\00:16:34.66
justice because he wants
nothing between us and him.
00:16:34.66\00:16:37.86
But we see his mercy because he
loves us and he says just give
00:16:37.86\00:16:41.40
it to me and I I will take
it. I will do the work in your
00:16:41.40\00:16:45.63
heart. He burst after 12 verse
11 says now know chastening.
00:16:45.63\00:16:50.04
That means
00:16:50.04\00:16:52.27
discipline. Good job now know
chastening or discipline seems
00:16:52.27\00:16:56.01
joyful. Obviously we don't
enjoy it for the president.
00:16:56.01\00:16:59.25
It's painful. Nevertheless,
afterward 8 yields the
00:16:59.25\00:17:03.52
peaceable fruit of right
shiftiness to those who are
00:17:03.52\00:17:08.69
trained by. And what does that
mean? The trial we go through?
00:17:08.69\00:17:12.63
When we have that? I do that.
We say God, I want you to cut
00:17:12.63\00:17:15.66
it out. Would you take out
of my life? Sometimes it is a
00:17:15.66\00:17:18.77
process and sometimes it's
painful. But God is working in
00:17:18.77\00:17:22.84
your heart and mind, right,
miss. He's making us into the
00:17:22.84\00:17:27.81
image of Jesus without the dark
clouds in our lives. We would
00:17:27.81\00:17:32.81
never know the joy of sunshine.
00:17:32.81\00:17:37.95
We can become
callous and an teachable.
00:17:37.95\00:17:42.12
If we refuse to learn from pain.
00:17:42.12\00:17:48.43
Key number one to experiencing
unrest in Christ is allowed on
00:17:48.43\00:17:55.17
to cut out the idols from your
life. Key number 2 is arrives
00:17:55.17\00:18:02.61
from spiritual left or G
00:18:02.61\00:18:05.88
our rise from spirit
show. Lethargy were still and
00:18:05.88\00:18:09.52
Stephanie, I won. We're going
to verse 12 and I like it in
00:18:09.52\00:18:12.99
the new living translation the
way it quotes. It's on to read
00:18:12.99\00:18:16.36
it from that Stephanie Iowan 12
hour search with lanterns that
00:18:16.36\00:18:20.73
God speaking.
00:18:20.73\00:18:22.30
I was searched with lanterns
in Jerusalem's Darkest Corners.
00:18:22.30\00:18:26.87
So where is God searching
00:18:26.87\00:18:28.77
the church? This is the church.
He is searching the darkest
00:18:28.77\00:18:34.48
corners of the
church and our hearts
00:18:34.48\00:18:40.22
punish those
00:18:40.22\00:18:42.55
hoosick
complacent in their sons.
00:18:42.55\00:18:46.29
They think the larger do nothing
00:18:46.29\00:18:49.42
either. Good.
00:18:49.42\00:18:51.99
New King James says our punter,
some men said told in their
00:18:51.99\00:18:55.83
complacency, you see it's
difficult for you and I to rest
00:18:55.83\00:19:01.37
in his love. It's difficult for
us to experience oneness with
00:19:01.37\00:19:05.54
him
00:19:05.54\00:19:06.68
and experience joy of rest
in him. If our hearts are numb,
00:19:06.68\00:19:12.51
if their callous,
if they're in different
00:19:12.51\00:19:16.95
and you might say, OK, I get
that job. I want to arise from
00:19:16.95\00:19:19.99
spiritual left to do. But
I don't know how to do it.
00:19:19.99\00:19:22.29
How am I to arise from
spiritual lethargy? I love
00:19:22.29\00:19:26.80
Isaiah. 43 19. We're
going to go there. Isaiah 43 19
00:19:26.80\00:19:31.63
because the key is UN. I need
to ask God to do a new thing in
00:19:31.63\00:19:38.31
our hearts and in our lives.
I-40 to 19. Behold, I would do.
00:19:38.31\00:19:46.65
You'll hear behold? I would do.
00:19:46.65\00:19:49.42
I think yes. That word new
in Hebrew means new in Kuala,
00:19:49.42\00:19:54.62
teeny.
00:19:54.62\00:19:55.92
Not that time.
00:19:55.92\00:19:58.83
It can also mean
renew, in other words,
00:19:58.83\00:20:01.70
asking God to do renew and un.
I that first love experience we
00:20:01.70\00:20:06.90
had with him. We're
asking him to bring back
00:20:06.90\00:20:10.81
that fire we used to have.
I would do a new thing now is
00:20:10.81\00:20:16.41
to spring forth show you not
know what I would make a road
00:20:16.41\00:20:19.05
in the wilderness and rivers in
the desert. I want a wilderness
00:20:19.05\00:20:24.65
of sin and guilt. Are you
in a wilderness of shame and
00:20:24.65\00:20:27.89
condemnation? Do you go to God
and ask for answers to prayer
00:20:27.89\00:20:32.29
and it seems like your prayers
hit the ceiling and he is not
00:20:32.29\00:20:36.10
hearing you. Are you walking
in the wilderness? God does not
00:20:36.10\00:20:40.44
want you to languish there.
You do not have to die there.
00:20:40.44\00:20:44.61
He can set you free. You are
in that wilderness. But he wants
00:20:44.61\00:20:49.04
to being presented, sir.
00:20:49.04\00:20:51.35
There is a dearth where
there is a spiritual drought
00:20:51.35\00:20:56.28
is spiritual lethargy.
Cars says I will do a new thing.
00:20:56.28\00:21:01.66
I will do a new seat.
00:21:01.66\00:21:04.23
So key number one is to we're
over here. Allow God to caught
00:21:04.23\00:21:09.56
out. So idols. Key number to
a rise from spiritual lethargy.
00:21:09.56\00:21:16.50
You guys are good.
Key number 3, sapped
00:21:16.50\00:21:21.18
God's
instruction and correction.
00:21:21.18\00:21:27.75
I got you down. I
do not like this one
00:21:27.75\00:21:30.95
except God's
instruction and correction.
00:21:30.95\00:21:37.83
We're definitely a 3,
00:21:37.83\00:21:39.63
Stephanie. I 3 verses one 2.
00:21:39.63\00:21:43.47
Wow
00:21:43.47\00:21:45.10
to her.
00:21:45.10\00:21:46.67
This is God's people druce
00:21:46.67\00:21:50.04
woe to her who is revalue us and
00:21:50.04\00:21:53.71
polluted
00:21:53.71\00:21:55.41
to the oppressed. Seen city
00:21:55.41\00:21:58.55
now comes averse to a four-fold
rebuke to God's people. She has
00:21:58.55\00:22:04.85
not obeyed his voice.
00:22:04.85\00:22:07.59
She has not received correction.
00:22:07.59\00:22:11.56
She has not trust
stayed in the low earn.
00:22:11.56\00:22:16.67
She has not drawn near
00:22:16.67\00:22:18.70
to her God.
00:22:18.70\00:22:20.54
The 4 fold rebuke. God's people
00:22:20.54\00:22:23.97
are disobedient.
00:22:23.97\00:22:25.97
God's people
refuse to be corrected.
00:22:25.97\00:22:30.55
God's people lack faith in God,
00:22:30.55\00:22:34.78
God's people don't draw near to
him. They stay a good distance
00:22:34.78\00:22:39.82
from him.
00:22:39.82\00:22:41.52
Let's unpack this for just
a moment. Before we go to the
00:22:41.52\00:22:44.79
next key,
00:22:44.79\00:22:46.16
let's look at Disobedience.
God's people are disobedient.
00:22:46.16\00:22:49.20
You know, every time
00:22:49.20\00:22:51.37
UN I
00:22:51.37\00:22:53.84
I mean, the phrase that
00:22:53.84\00:22:55.40
every time God
calls to your heart,
00:22:55.40\00:22:58.97
you're faced with
the choice. Are you not?
00:22:58.97\00:23:01.21
We can say yes, Scott, I want
to do it your way. Yes, God,
00:23:01.21\00:23:05.61
I don't want to forgive
this person but only to grant me
00:23:05.61\00:23:09.65
your forgiveness. I don't want
to walk in obedience to what
00:23:09.65\00:23:13.99
you've commanded me. But
would you place that in my heart
00:23:13.99\00:23:19.73
when God calls to our
heart, what can we say now?
00:23:19.73\00:23:24.57
Still choices. We can say
yes, Scott, I want your will ye,
00:23:24.57\00:23:28.17
Scott. I want your way. Yes,
God, please soften my heart or
00:23:28.17\00:23:32.74
we can say no, god. I don't
want to hear you. I do want to
00:23:32.74\00:23:35.11
listen.
00:23:35.11\00:23:36.75
I don't want to obey.
00:23:36.75\00:23:39.71
We think that obedience is a
complicated process, but it's
00:23:39.71\00:23:44.75
not
00:23:44.75\00:23:46.42
it's simply making a choice.
Do I want to do it got way or
00:23:46.42\00:23:50.53
do I want to do it my own way.
00:23:50.53\00:23:55.53
The people are
not just disobedient.
00:23:55.53\00:23:57.63
They refused correction.
Now this is not talking about
00:23:57.63\00:24:01.27
just taking a step in to center
on knowing our lips and then
00:24:01.27\00:24:04.74
gonna ask for forgiveness.
This is outright rebellion.
00:24:04.74\00:24:08.84
It reminds me of Farrow
remembered the children of
00:24:08.84\00:24:11.48
Israel when the plagues we're
coming up on Egypt and what
00:24:11.48\00:24:14.48
happened. We're an Exodus.
5 verse to Pharaoh said How is
00:24:14.48\00:24:19.99
the Lord
00:24:19.99\00:24:21.09
that I should obey his voice
and let Israel go? I do not
00:24:21.09\00:24:26.19
know the Lorne
00:24:26.19\00:24:27.46
nor will I let Israel
00:24:27.46\00:24:31.40
Pharaoh refused correction.
00:24:31.40\00:24:34.94
That was at the
peril of this country.
00:24:34.94\00:24:37.11
The plagues report now
00:24:37.11\00:24:38.97
his crops were destroyed.
His country was destroyed.
00:24:38.97\00:24:43.45
His people were killed
00:24:43.45\00:24:47.68
because to he
refused correction.
00:24:47.68\00:24:51.75
I noticed that
00:24:51.75\00:24:53.86
when it's cold and it's
wintertime and those maybe
00:24:53.86\00:24:55.89
icicles hanging off of the
roof. Have you noticed when the
00:24:55.89\00:24:58.33
sun comes out in a winter day?
What happens to the icicles?
00:24:58.33\00:25:03.43
But did you know
that the same sun
00:25:03.43\00:25:06.33
that melts ice?
00:25:06.33\00:25:08.67
It hardens clay
00:25:08.67\00:25:11.01
times. We Judge God, do we not?
00:25:11.01\00:25:15.44
Why with Farrow and his people
destroyed? Why did you do that?
00:25:15.44\00:25:19.68
Why?
00:25:19.68\00:25:20.85
But yet the difference is not
the sun. The sun is the same.
00:25:20.85\00:25:24.75
The difference was in. They
objects response to the side.
00:25:24.75\00:25:30.33
So God is the same. He loves
everyone. But you and I have a
00:25:30.33\00:25:34.30
choice. We can say yes to
Jesus. We can say I want you to
00:25:34.30\00:25:38.97
soften my heart. I want to
follow you. I want to walk in
00:25:38.97\00:25:43.87
your way are we can say
00:25:43.87\00:25:46.71
I don't want anything to do
with you got I know better than
00:25:46.71\00:25:49.88
you got. I don't like your way.
God. I'm going to do it my way.
00:25:49.88\00:25:57.69
God is the same.
00:25:57.69\00:25:59.15
The difference is in how
you and I respond to him.
00:25:59.15\00:26:05.19
They were disobedient. They
refused correction. They lacked
00:26:05.19\00:26:07.86
faith in God. Now to God, not
give them faith. Of course he
00:26:07.86\00:26:11.07
did Roma's 12, 3 God gave to
everyone. Major of faith were
00:26:11.07\00:26:17.24
all given that grain of mustard
seed and Romans. 10, 17 faith
00:26:17.24\00:26:21.71
comes by hearing and
hearing by the word of God.
00:26:21.71\00:26:24.35
So that begs the question
where the people of that time,
00:26:24.35\00:26:26.75
not in the word enough.
00:26:26.75\00:26:29.65
Did they not exercise the
measure of faith that they had
00:26:29.65\00:26:34.49
been given?
00:26:34.49\00:26:37.29
What happens when you
and I lack faith in God
00:26:37.29\00:26:40.40
as a cause? We're
not the word enough.
00:26:40.40\00:26:43.30
Is it because we have not sir
sized and walked out the faith
00:26:43.30\00:26:49.24
that God has given us
00:26:49.24\00:26:51.87
and they also stayed away from
God. It reminds me of James 4,
00:26:51.87\00:26:55.88
8, it says drawn near to got
and he will do all the new year
00:26:55.88\00:27:01.98
to you.
00:27:01.98\00:27:04.05
So let's review our 70's
for rest. Teen in the him key
00:27:04.05\00:27:08.16
number one, allow God to
cut out the idols in our life.
00:27:08.16\00:27:13.33
Key number 2, a rise from
spiritual lethargy. Key number
00:27:13.33\00:27:18.97
3,
00:27:18.97\00:27:20.80
God's instruction and
correction. Key number 4
00:27:20.80\00:27:25.64
receive his son Righteous S
I love this guy. Receive his
00:27:25.64\00:27:33.75
righteousness or indefinite 3
verses 12 13. Stephanie has 3,
00:27:33.75\00:27:39.92
12 13. I got speaking. I would
leave. Leave in your midst.
00:27:39.92\00:27:45.43
I'm a geek and humble people.
Jay Schulz, trust in the name
00:27:45.43\00:27:51.33
of the Lord. Now we're going
to come back to that fought in
00:27:51.33\00:27:53.67
just a moment.
00:27:53.67\00:27:55.04
The remnant of his Irwin first
13 showed you know, what's that
00:27:55.04\00:27:59.41
word unrighteousness? The
remnant of Israel would do no
00:27:59.41\00:28:03.81
unrighteousness and speak no
lies nor show a deceitful ton
00:28:03.81\00:28:08.88
be founded their mandate.
They show feet their flocks and
00:28:08.88\00:28:12.55
lie down
00:28:12.55\00:28:13.99
and nobody shell make them
00:28:13.99\00:28:18.03
afraid.
00:28:18.03\00:28:20.53
The remnant of
Israel if they're doing no
00:28:20.53\00:28:22.40
unrighteousness and there is
no deceitful tongue, there is no
00:28:22.40\00:28:26.57
guile. They're walking in
righteousness, are they not?
00:28:26.57\00:28:30.74
And yet so often we think
Christianity is about our own
00:28:30.74\00:28:35.74
righteousness and not about the
righteousness of Jesus Christ.
00:28:35.74\00:28:40.35
So we think if I only gritted
my teeth, if I only tried
00:28:40.35\00:28:43.75
harder, if I only worked
are, if I only did more for the
00:28:43.75\00:28:48.19
church, if I only tried harder,
00:28:48.19\00:28:52.46
we can tackle Christianity that
way. That's the same problem
00:28:52.46\00:28:56.60
that happens when you and
I put on the mask and pretend
00:28:56.60\00:28:59.40
everything is OK,
00:28:59.40\00:29:01.37
can you see hope and
change the color of his skin?
00:29:01.37\00:29:04.71
Can a leopard take
the spots off his hide?
00:29:04.71\00:29:08.41
The Bible says then may you do
good who are a cause? It's time
00:29:08.41\00:29:12.48
to to do mean evil.
00:29:12.48\00:29:15.42
All right. Just an aside, this
64 is as filthy rags. This is
00:29:15.42\00:29:19.89
talking about the righteousness
of Christ Christ. Our
00:29:19.89\00:29:23.49
righteousness EC is his
holiness. It's his purity.
00:29:23.49\00:29:27.46
It is his life that
is lived in the U.S..
00:29:27.46\00:29:31.60
I love the book of
Romans. You all know that
00:29:31.60\00:29:35.07
Roman 7 chapter 7 is about
this tug of war in the life.
00:29:35.07\00:29:41.64
That's a serious talk of war.
00:29:41.64\00:29:43.38
What I want to do,
00:29:43.38\00:29:44.95
I don't do and the things I
don't want to do. Those are the
00:29:44.95\00:29:48.48
things I find myself doing
and you get down to the end of
00:29:48.48\00:29:51.55
Roman 7, which is to say
all red should mandate I am.
00:29:51.55\00:29:56.46
She'll deliver me from
this body of death is very
00:29:56.46\00:30:00.43
interesting. Parallel. I think
here involving 7.17, it says it
00:30:00.43\00:30:04.67
is no longer I could do it but
sin that dwells in me now the
00:30:04.67\00:30:10.47
rigged Wells in Greek, OK, you
means to inhabit dwell or make
00:30:10.47\00:30:14.94
a home
00:30:14.94\00:30:18.71
sin. It's not me acting out.
Well, I made a choice to lapse
00:30:18.71\00:30:23.05
into my life. I get that.
But it's not me. It's because
00:30:23.05\00:30:25.82
I've allowed CNN to take
up residence in my heart.
00:30:25.82\00:30:32.29
But you can contrast this
with the glaciers to verse 20.
00:30:32.29\00:30:37.27
What does that say? I've been
crucified with Christ. It is no
00:30:37.27\00:30:40.47
longer I live but Christ who
lives in many praise the Lord.
00:30:40.47\00:30:46.24
So the difference here you
see it's not me doing the good
00:30:46.24\00:30:49.31
work. That's not me. Trying
harder is not me gritting my
00:30:49.31\00:30:52.21
teeth. It's not me saying I
will be good. I would be good.
00:30:52.21\00:30:54.68
I would be good.
00:30:54.68\00:30:55.88
I'm exhausted. No, it's because
I've allowed Jesus Christ the
00:30:55.88\00:31:00.46
Lord of my life to live in
my life. And when he lives in my
00:31:00.46\00:31:06.09
life,
00:31:06.09\00:31:07.36
when he lives in your life,
00:31:07.36\00:31:09.96
he will set U.S. free
00:31:09.96\00:31:15.27
God's people. Key number 4
00:31:15.27\00:31:19.04
to experience
seen rest in Christ.
00:31:19.04\00:31:22.74
It's when UN I truly
00:31:22.74\00:31:26.31
scene of his righteousness.
00:31:26.31\00:31:30.35
>> Now I know it when
you're coming back to the make a
00:31:30.35\00:31:32.35
number of people. Let's spend
just a moment on that and then
00:31:32.35\00:31:34.66
we'll go to key number 5,
00:31:34.66\00:31:37.36
I believe in your midst to make
a number of people they would
00:31:37.36\00:31:39.53
trust in the name
00:31:39.53\00:31:41.73
of the Lord.
00:31:41.73\00:31:43.43
Humility is trusting in God,
00:31:43.43\00:31:47.24
not in me.
00:31:47.24\00:31:49.64
You know, from childhood.
We are taught to do it
00:31:49.64\00:31:51.74
ourselves,
00:31:51.74\00:31:53.44
you know, a little kid. And
when they brush their own teeth
00:31:53.44\00:31:55.64
for the first time where
they feed themselves what we say
00:31:55.64\00:31:58.71
good for you when they learned
how to tie their own shoes for
00:31:58.71\00:32:01.72
the first time. What we say,
oh, you growing up to be a big
00:32:01.72\00:32:04.52
kid when they learned how
to make their bad without the
00:32:04.52\00:32:07.36
wrinkles. We say look at you
and when they learn how to do
00:32:07.36\00:32:09.86
laundry were impressed
and those are good things. Of
00:32:09.86\00:32:12.76
course, we need to be
adults and function in society.
00:32:12.76\00:32:15.60
I'm not saying that,
00:32:15.60\00:32:17.07
but we somehow apply
that to our walk with God that
00:32:17.07\00:32:21.17
independence,
that self sufficiency,
00:32:21.17\00:32:26.41
that pride
00:32:26.41\00:32:27.91
that leaves in our hearts.
00:32:27.91\00:32:31.45
Humility is trusting in God,
00:32:31.45\00:32:36.32
not in me.
00:32:36.32\00:32:38.59
At the end of that passage
in verse 13, it says no one show
00:32:38.59\00:32:43.02
make them
00:32:43.02\00:32:44.63
a free.
00:32:44.63\00:32:46.09
When we humbly trust
in Christ's righteousness,
00:32:46.09\00:32:51.10
we do have to be
afraid of people.
00:32:51.10\00:32:53.64
We don't have to be
afraid of situations
00:32:53.64\00:32:57.84
and the margin. My Bible,
sometimes I write the date when
00:32:57.84\00:33:01.64
God speaks to me
about a particular verse
00:33:01.64\00:33:05.18
and then as they have 51
verse 12, I have a certain date
00:33:05.18\00:33:08.88
written by this verse
00:33:08.88\00:33:10.75
because God used it in my life
in a powerful way because I was
00:33:10.75\00:33:13.46
afraid of a person
at that time in my life.
00:33:13.46\00:33:16.36
And it says, who are you that
you should be afraid of a man
00:33:16.36\00:33:18.73
who would die?
00:33:18.73\00:33:20.73
>> And of the son of a man
who will be made like grass.
00:33:20.73\00:33:24.07
And you forget
00:33:24.07\00:33:25.87
the Lord, your maker stretched
out the heavens. You know,
00:33:25.87\00:33:30.74
it's amazing because we
think, well, how are afraid of a
00:33:30.74\00:33:33.61
person,
00:33:33.61\00:33:35.51
4 people
00:33:35.51\00:33:37.21
we're just created
in the image of God.
00:33:37.21\00:33:40.78
All right. We're not to create
or and you realize that our God
00:33:40.78\00:33:44.52
is omnipotent. Our God is
omniscient. Our God can do
00:33:44.52\00:33:49.59
anything. So we're going back
7 keys to experiencing resting
00:33:49.59\00:33:54.50
cries. Key number one is
to allow God to caught out the
00:33:54.50\00:33:58.50
idols in your life. Key number
2 is our rise from spiritual
00:33:58.50\00:34:04.34
lethargy. Key number 3, except
his instruction and correction.
00:34:04.34\00:34:11.28
Key number 4, receive his
righteousness. Key number 5,
00:34:11.28\00:34:17.49
rejoice and God's
victory in your life.
00:34:17.49\00:34:23.73
Warren's F a -3
00:34:23.73\00:34:25.59
verses 14 15. Stephanie has
3, 14 15 saying daughter of Zion
00:34:25.59\00:34:34.74
got talking with
people. This is people
00:34:34.74\00:34:37.11
saying no daughter
of Zion shout oh Israel
00:34:37.11\00:34:41.48
because Ed and reach Oif with
all your heart daughter of drew
00:34:41.48\00:34:47.88
some and why are we to saying
why are we to rejoice? We see
00:34:47.88\00:34:51.29
it in the next first 15.
00:34:51.29\00:34:53.29
The Lord has taken
away your judgment.
00:34:53.29\00:34:59.03
He has cast out your enemy.
00:34:59.03\00:35:03.47
The King of Israel. The Lord
is in your midst. USC disaster.
00:35:03.47\00:35:07.37
No more
00:35:07.37\00:35:10.21
this time. If you read Stephon,
I I know we really don't have
00:35:10.21\00:35:12.77
time in this passage to time.
We have together to read it
00:35:12.77\00:35:15.88
all. But if you read it
chapters one 2 is serious
00:35:15.88\00:35:19.18
judgment.
00:35:19.18\00:35:20.35
If you're eating
00:35:20.35\00:35:21.75
morning
00:35:21.75\00:35:23.15
judgment
correction upon the people
00:35:23.15\00:35:26.99
by time we get to this passage
where they are saying mean
00:35:26.99\00:35:31.23
Andrey Joy scene, God has done
a work in their lives. You see
00:35:31.23\00:35:37.77
joy and rejoicing come after
a time of trial and judgment.
00:35:37.77\00:35:42.67
Sometimes we only see
the rainbow after the rain.
00:35:42.67\00:35:47.24
We only experience freedom
00:35:47.24\00:35:49.68
after bondage. We only know
peace after pain. We only truly
00:35:49.68\00:35:56.02
feel joy
00:35:56.02\00:35:57.75
after saw sometimes the very
act of discipline prepares the
00:35:57.75\00:36:04.79
soul for peace.
00:36:04.79\00:36:07.66
Matthew Henry in his commentary
on this particular passage says
00:36:07.66\00:36:12.63
this after the promise is of
taking away sin follow promises
00:36:12.63\00:36:19.11
of taking away tropical
00:36:19.11\00:36:21.91
when the cause is
removed, the effect
00:36:21.91\00:36:26.38
will cease.
00:36:26.38\00:36:28.08
>> What makes up people
holy will make a people.
00:36:28.08\00:36:35.72
Did you catch that?
00:36:35.72\00:36:37.56
Why do we saying it says
here saying oh Israel and read
00:36:37.56\00:36:41.83
choice daughter of
Zion. Why do we saying
00:36:41.83\00:36:45.80
is this a demand from God?
00:36:45.80\00:36:47.97
Are we guilted into
singing? Are we forced into joy?
00:36:47.97\00:36:53.74
And yet we do that
to other Christians
00:36:53.74\00:36:56.41
and we do that to ourselves
with this mask I talked to
00:36:56.41\00:36:59.91
about at the beginning.
00:36:59.91\00:37:01.72
Good Christians are
supposed to be happy
00:37:01.72\00:37:04.45
and yet we don't realize that
we can only thing we can only
00:37:04.45\00:37:09.96
read choice when you and I have
been delivered. You see there's
00:37:09.96\00:37:13.19
a reason this key comes all the
way down at number 5 because if
00:37:13.19\00:37:17.10
we have not allowed God to
cut out the idols in our life,
00:37:17.10\00:37:20.27
what is there to rejoice
over if we have not risen from
00:37:20.27\00:37:23.51
spiritual lethargy, how
can we be happy if we have not
00:37:23.51\00:37:28.34
experienced cause instruction
and correction? If we don't
00:37:28.34\00:37:32.25
know what it means to have
Jesus live in our hearts and
00:37:32.25\00:37:36.28
receive his righteousness,
how can you and I say,
00:37:36.28\00:37:40.56
how can you in ivory toys?
We still many times get the
00:37:40.56\00:37:44.03
cart before the horse
and we think this is the way
00:37:44.03\00:37:47.23
Christianity is. And we put
people into key number 5 and
00:37:47.23\00:37:50.57
say everybody should
sing and be happy and rejoice
00:37:50.57\00:37:53.27
when we have never
experienced deliverance.
00:37:53.27\00:37:56.74
We thing because we are
00:37:56.74\00:38:00.94
delivered.
00:38:00.94\00:38:02.98
It takes away our judgments.
00:38:02.98\00:38:07.02
God takes your shame. God
takes your guilt. Got takes your
00:38:07.02\00:38:11.35
condemnation. God takes your
curse. But he doesn't just take
00:38:11.35\00:38:15.96
away our
judgments. He casts how our
00:38:15.96\00:38:23.10
who is the enemy in
your life right now?
00:38:23.10\00:38:27.00
Is it your addiction?
00:38:27.00\00:38:29.27
Khan said
whoever the sun sets free
00:38:29.27\00:38:31.87
is free in D
00:38:31.87\00:38:34.44
is it your accusers?
00:38:34.44\00:38:37.71
The woman in John who
was caught in the very act of
00:38:37.71\00:38:41.72
adultery
00:38:41.72\00:38:43.02
and cast at the feet of Jesus.
00:38:43.02\00:38:46.52
>> She had multiple accusers
to she not. She had people who
00:38:46.52\00:38:49.62
surrounded her ready to stone
her ready, too, accused her of
00:38:49.62\00:38:55.50
sand and adultery
and she was guilty.
00:38:55.50\00:38:58.53
And yet Jesus stoops down
00:38:58.53\00:39:01.87
and began to write in the
sand of the sins of the accusing
00:39:01.87\00:39:06.57
people
00:39:06.57\00:39:07.94
and one by one they left
00:39:07.94\00:39:11.31
and tell
00:39:11.31\00:39:12.61
he said women,
where are your accusers?
00:39:12.61\00:39:17.59
She said nobody is left.
00:39:17.59\00:39:21.62
You can cast your
enemy. God can take away your
00:39:21.62\00:39:24.73
addiction. God can
take away. The people who QC
00:39:24.73\00:39:30.07
God can take away. Say 10
00:39:30.07\00:39:33.77
revelation, 12, 10, the accuser
of the bear brother and he's
00:39:33.77\00:39:36.91
the ultimate accuser is passed
down who accuse them before our
00:39:36.91\00:39:42.58
God day and night going back
towards 7 keys to experiencing
00:39:42.58\00:39:47.28
rest and freedom in Jesus.
Allow God to cut out the idols
00:39:47.28\00:39:51.82
from your life around highs
from spiritual lethargy except
00:39:51.82\00:39:57.13
his correction and instruction
receive his righteousness.
00:39:57.13\00:40:02.83
>> Read choice, saying
God's victory in your life.
00:40:02.83\00:40:07.54
Key number 6
receive his salvation
00:40:07.54\00:40:12.71
when Stephanie History.
00:40:12.71\00:40:14.48
>> First 16 in the first
part of 17, Stephanie, 3, 16,
00:40:14.48\00:40:18.85
17 in that day. It should
be said to Jerusalem to God's
00:40:18.85\00:40:23.92
people.
00:40:23.92\00:40:25.05
Do not fear. Zion.
00:40:25.05\00:40:27.62
Let not your hands be weak.
00:40:27.62\00:40:30.36
>> So Lord, your God is
where is he a long ways off?
00:40:30.36\00:40:34.03
Is he over the mountain?
00:40:34.03\00:40:35.56
Is he hiding his face?
00:40:35.56\00:40:38.33
The Lord, your God is with
you, the Lord, your God in your
00:40:38.33\00:40:43.37
midst them. It won a will.
00:40:43.37\00:40:49.34
>> And Hebrew.
It means the liver.
00:40:49.34\00:40:53.48
You and I don't have to wrestle
with doubts and insecurities
00:40:53.48\00:40:56.55
we can accept and
receive his gift of deliverance.
00:40:56.55\00:41:02.39
That is his gift of salvation.
What is the Fusion's to 8 to 10
00:41:02.39\00:41:06.46
saved by grace. You've
been saved through faith
00:41:06.46\00:41:11.07
and that not of yourselves.
It is the gift of God. Not a
00:41:11.07\00:41:14.97
word lest anyone should boost
for. We are his workmanship
00:41:14.97\00:41:20.34
created in Christ. Jesus for
Good works which God prepared
00:41:20.34\00:41:24.51
beforehand that we should walk
in them? I love that because if
00:41:24.51\00:41:28.15
you look at that passage in
tandem UC salvation is a gift
00:41:28.15\00:41:31.79
from God isn't not the blood
of Jesus Christ cleanses us from
00:41:31.79\00:41:36.66
all sin. It is a gift from God
but sanctification in the act
00:41:36.66\00:41:41.40
of walking in Jesus, the active
becoming like Jesus. The act of
00:41:41.40\00:41:45.63
purification of our characters
is a gift from God as well
00:41:45.63\00:41:51.27
receive and accept
his gift of Salvation
00:41:51.27\00:41:56.54
walk in the
knowledge that you are safe,
00:41:56.54\00:42:03.12
I'm going to speak
specifically. We have
00:42:03.12\00:42:04.62
Christians of many
denominations and even on
00:42:04.62\00:42:06.76
Christians who watched 3ABN
00:42:06.76\00:42:09.26
and I don't know what
denomination you are here.
00:42:09.26\00:42:11.43
Probably most of
your 7th day Adventists.
00:42:11.43\00:42:15.23
I want to speak specifically
to 7th Day Adventists right now.
00:42:15.23\00:42:20.77
We do not
00:42:20.77\00:42:22.70
except
00:42:22.70\00:42:24.34
and received the gift
of salvation very well.
00:42:24.34\00:42:28.78
I'm not saying you do
specifically. I'm just saying
00:42:28.78\00:42:31.68
as a people as a church
00:42:31.68\00:42:34.28
as a denomination. And I think
maybe it's because we're afraid
00:42:34.28\00:42:37.65
of one saved, always saved.
00:42:37.65\00:42:39.59
And we say, well, if I say,
wow, I'm saved and accepted in
00:42:39.59\00:42:44.06
Jesus at this moment, we think
00:42:44.06\00:42:46.09
I'm going to come
like the back to us.
00:42:46.09\00:42:50.20
We begin that fear journey and
there is in the Bible is very
00:42:50.20\00:42:54.37
clear that you can turn
away from salvation. So I'm not
00:42:54.37\00:42:59.11
saying one saved always saved
by saying this. The Bible is
00:42:59.11\00:43:01.94
very clear. Un I have to make
daily choices to walk and him
00:43:01.94\00:43:06.82
to receive his gift of
salvation. But there is nothing
00:43:06.82\00:43:11.42
wrong with you. And I
not having to walk in cars,
00:43:11.42\00:43:15.62
Johnston, battle of whether
we're going to make it to have
00:43:15.62\00:43:19.46
Boston struggling and have a
really except God and my really
00:43:19.46\00:43:23.73
good enough. And I really
covered by the plot. If you
00:43:23.73\00:43:26.90
confess your sins, he is
faithful and just different.
00:43:26.90\00:43:33.14
We can stand and say aye
and saved by the blood of Jesus.
00:43:33.14\00:43:38.85
5, a black eye. She said yes,
00:43:42.18\00:43:47.02
receive
00:43:47.02\00:43:49.12
salvation.
00:43:49.12\00:43:51.09
>> The final key
key numbers said bin,
00:43:51.09\00:43:55.40
it's about the whole theme is on
00:43:55.40\00:43:57.30
rest
00:43:57.30\00:43:59.00
in his left.
00:43:59.00\00:44:01.80
Rest
00:44:01.80\00:44:03.30
in his love for
indefinite 3 verse 17.
00:44:03.30\00:44:08.98
Stephanie has 3.17,
00:44:08.98\00:44:11.18
the large you God in your
midst. We already read the
00:44:11.18\00:44:13.31
first part here. The Lord, your
God in your midst, the mighty
00:44:13.31\00:44:16.79
one will save or will deliver.
00:44:16.79\00:44:21.22
>> He will rejoice
over you. Wince Gladness.
00:44:21.22\00:44:26.90
He will quiet you with his
love. King James says he will
00:44:26.90\00:44:32.70
rest in his love.
00:44:32.70\00:44:36.77
He would sure why
00:44:36.77\00:44:38.84
over you with
00:44:38.84\00:44:41.04
see me
00:44:41.04\00:44:43.98
in English. The word you is
the object to the verb quiet.
00:44:43.98\00:44:48.45
It says he will quiet. You
quiet too. Quiet you with his
00:44:48.45\00:44:54.49
love. But in Hebrew,
the word you does not exist.
00:44:54.49\00:44:58.33
Also be read. He will be
quiet in his love, which is very
00:44:58.33\00:45:02.53
similar to the King James
translation. He will rest in
00:45:02.53\00:45:06.20
his love. The September
generates. He will renew the ye
00:45:06.20\00:45:10.87
and his love.
00:45:10.87\00:45:14.01
How are you a 9 to rest
00:45:14.01\00:45:16.64
in his left?
00:45:16.64\00:45:19.05
I want to give you a verse
here, which you're going to
00:45:19.05\00:45:20.75
say, Joe, this has nothing
to do with anything. But if you
00:45:20.75\00:45:23.12
stay with me, hopefully
you'll get the connection.
00:45:23.12\00:45:25.95
Isaiah chapter. 26
00:45:25.95\00:45:28.76
verse 3 says what?
00:45:28.76\00:45:31.33
You will keep him
00:45:31.33\00:45:32.79
imperfect peace whose
mind is stayed on the scene
00:45:32.79\00:45:38.47
because he trusts Indy.
00:45:38.47\00:45:42.64
And for so many
years, I thought that meant
00:45:42.64\00:45:46.88
I got to work hard
to keep my mind on. God.
00:45:46.88\00:45:50.65
Kuz doesn't say that. Whose
mind estate on you you're going
00:45:50.65\00:45:53.75
to be in perfect peace. Only if
your mind is on God, you could
00:45:53.75\00:45:56.15
be a perfect peace. Only if
your mind the state and I would
00:45:56.15\00:45:58.85
spend time in devotions.
And if my mind wandered,
00:45:58.85\00:46:01.06
I take hot. I want your piece.
Get my mind back over here.
00:46:01.06\00:46:04.19
>> And if I'm worried about
something, I take God, I want
00:46:04.19\00:46:06.36
your piece. Get my mind
back over here. And if I was
00:46:06.36\00:46:09.23
frustrated with something
and say God, I want your piece,
00:46:09.23\00:46:11.60
get use to get your mind on
me. Stay stay. Get back here.
00:46:11.60\00:46:15.50
But you know what? The
word stay in. Hebrew means
00:46:15.50\00:46:18.77
to lean.
00:46:18.77\00:46:20.84
>> May
00:46:20.84\00:46:22.61
rest upon.
00:46:22.61\00:46:25.25
>> That puts a completely
different twist on that
00:46:25.25\00:46:28.28
passage. Does it not
00:46:28.28\00:46:30.12
another words? My
job is to lean my head
00:46:30.12\00:46:35.29
on God's chest.
00:46:35.29\00:46:38.56
He's the one who
keeps me in peace.
00:46:38.56\00:46:40.96
It's not me struggling
to get my mind back on him.
00:46:40.96\00:46:45.03
Eileen, my head against him
as a kid would against a father,
00:46:45.03\00:46:49.64
lay my head on his shoulder.
00:46:49.64\00:46:52.71
I think in the same sense we
can understand this concept of
00:46:52.71\00:46:58.55
rest in his life.
00:46:58.55\00:47:00.95
If I'm being honest with
you rested does not come easy to
00:47:00.95\00:47:03.99
me.
00:47:03.99\00:47:05.25
That's my personality. I
guess I'm always doing. Always
00:47:05.25\00:47:09.79
driven.
00:47:09.79\00:47:11.06
I'm always working.
00:47:11.06\00:47:12.93
I'm always focused
00:47:12.93\00:47:17.37
hard for me
00:47:17.37\00:47:20.07
to be present. If
you know what that means.
00:47:20.07\00:47:23.77
It's hard for me
00:47:23.77\00:47:26.51
to rest.
00:47:26.51\00:47:28.04
So if you were to tell
jail, you're supposed to rest in
00:47:28.04\00:47:31.48
God's love. You know
what? I do a better try harder.
00:47:31.48\00:47:35.25
I got to rest. Come on, Joe.
Rest your mind. Quiet. Rest.
00:47:35.25\00:47:39.05
Come on, Joe. Rest struggle.
00:47:39.05\00:47:42.82
>> God, I'm trying. I'm trying
hard to because I caught him
00:47:42.82\00:47:46.29
trying to be still.
00:47:46.29\00:47:48.83
That's not what it says.
00:47:53.20\00:47:55.20
What if you take the same
analogy that we did in the
00:47:55.20\00:47:57.84
ASEAN? 26
00:47:57.84\00:48:00.81
and all I have to do to rest.
00:48:00.81\00:48:03.41
It's to lay my
head on God's test.
00:48:03.41\00:48:08.58
I think this is what's talked
about in the book of Hebrews
00:48:08.58\00:48:11.95
when it talks about
entering into his rest,
00:48:11.95\00:48:16.73
stopping the struggle
of doing it my own way.
00:48:16.73\00:48:20.16
My own works
00:48:20.16\00:48:22.16
learning the rest of
righteousness by FIFA
00:48:22.16\00:48:26.27
learning true SAP and stressed
00:48:26.27\00:48:29.40
learning the joy
of rest teen in hand.
00:48:29.40\00:48:33.51
Have you ever noticed that when
you're in the company of a true
00:48:33.51\00:48:36.44
friend,
00:48:36.44\00:48:38.31
you don't always have to talk.
00:48:38.31\00:48:42.52
You don't have to be perfect.
00:48:42.52\00:48:45.45
You can sit in silence
00:48:45.45\00:48:48.16
and this comfort in that
00:48:48.16\00:48:50.53
a comfortable nus.
00:48:50.53\00:48:54.86
I believe the
relationship we have with gone.
00:48:54.86\00:49:00.10
It's like a marriage.
00:49:00.10\00:49:03.74
God wants to marry us.
00:49:03.74\00:49:05.71
If you look at the book
of Hosea what to say, our be
00:49:05.71\00:49:09.21
trough, you to me
00:49:09.21\00:49:12.85
forever.
00:49:12.85\00:49:14.92
And yet we say,
00:49:14.92\00:49:16.89
I think about it, Don.
00:49:16.89\00:49:19.69
I really have to marry you.
00:49:19.69\00:49:22.52
Do I have to commit?
00:49:22.52\00:49:25.13
It's a long time to follow you.
00:49:25.13\00:49:27.50
I don't know if I can do that.
00:49:27.50\00:49:29.66
Have to give up
00:49:29.66\00:49:32.07
what idols in my life. Am
I going to have to give up?
00:49:32.07\00:49:38.21
You know, if I want my like
my spiritual lethargy, I like
00:49:38.21\00:49:41.71
walking away from you
got enough to want to marry.
00:49:41.71\00:49:47.22
And yet he said, yes,
00:49:47.22\00:49:48.75
[MUSIC]
00:49:48.75\00:49:52.29
you know, this
is a revelation, 3,
00:49:52.29\00:49:54.52
that he stands at the door of
her heart and not because love
00:49:54.52\00:49:57.79
never forces.
00:49:57.79\00:50:00.00
[MUSIC]
00:50:00.00\00:50:02.33
And I imagine him standing
00:50:02.33\00:50:05.03
outside the door of my heart
00:50:05.03\00:50:09.14
and he just says, Joe,
00:50:09.14\00:50:11.94
would you just let me last year?
00:50:11.94\00:50:18.11
That's all we want.
00:50:18.11\00:50:20.72
I wanna be your
husband? Would you just allow me
00:50:20.72\00:50:24.79
love you? No strings attached.
No coercion. No guilt or
00:50:24.79\00:50:30.16
condemnation.
00:50:30.16\00:50:31.96
No shame.
00:50:31.96\00:50:33.50
>> Would you
just let me allow me?
00:50:33.50\00:50:38.43
>> To LA few
00:50:38.43\00:50:40.54
we need to rest in his love.
00:50:40.54\00:50:44.34
High tide is struggling.
00:50:44.34\00:50:46.47
I'm tired of the
anxiety and fear in your life.
00:50:46.47\00:50:50.01
Are you tired of the pain
and shame and condemnation?
00:50:50.01\00:50:54.75
>> What burdens?
00:50:54.75\00:50:56.85
>> Are you carrying today?
00:50:56.85\00:50:59.79
What burden is?
Did you bring with you?
00:50:59.79\00:51:04.19
2? Can't me
00:51:04.19\00:51:05.79
the burden. A son?
00:51:05.79\00:51:08.50
Is it the burden of addiction?
00:51:08.50\00:51:11.87
This is the burden of
shame in condemnation.
00:51:11.87\00:51:15.50
Is that the
burden of an forgiveness
00:51:15.50\00:51:18.84
and bitterness?
00:51:18.84\00:51:21.18
Is that the burden? As I
read to you in the beginning of
00:51:21.18\00:51:24.08
depression
00:51:24.08\00:51:25.71
and sadness,
00:51:25.71\00:51:27.52
it said the
burden of sexual impurity
00:51:27.52\00:51:32.09
and what mask
00:51:32.09\00:51:34.09
are you wearing? That
covers up those burdens
00:51:34.09\00:51:39.43
pretending like Everythings. OK?
00:51:39.43\00:51:42.53
>> Walking into church or into
family or into community while
00:51:42.53\00:51:47.40
you're die iin.
00:51:47.40\00:51:49.87
>> Inside,
00:51:49.87\00:51:53.04
you know, we don't
have to carry those.
00:51:53.04\00:51:55.01
We don't have to leave. Can't
meeting with the same burdens
00:51:55.01\00:52:00.35
that we entered
the camp meeting.
00:52:00.35\00:52:04.49
We can say God, you carry me.
00:52:04.49\00:52:07.12
I'm too weak to stand of
my own. My strength is caught.
00:52:07.12\00:52:12.53
I am weak
00:52:12.53\00:52:14.73
and not go on.
00:52:14.73\00:52:17.37
Please Sky.
00:52:17.37\00:52:19.03
Would you carry me?
00:52:19.03\00:52:21.14
I asked him to do
the song specifically.
00:52:21.14\00:52:25.07
It's a song that the late
Aaron Wilburn and Tim wrote
00:52:25.07\00:52:30.35
and it talks about how God
wants to carry the burdens.
00:52:30.35\00:52:35.85
They might be hidden from
other people. And I want to ask
00:52:35.85\00:52:39.59
during this song, if you came
to camp meeting with the bird,
00:52:39.59\00:52:44.03
if you came here was something
in your heart and in your life,
00:52:44.03\00:52:48.46
nobody else needs to
know what it is because I'm
00:52:48.46\00:52:51.83
if you want to come forward
during this song or pray over
00:52:51.83\00:52:58.34
the house at the end, God
00:52:58.34\00:53:01.71
would you carry?
00:53:01.71\00:53:02.91
[MUSIC]
00:53:02.91\00:53:08.58
>> Right. And then lonely
00:53:08.58\00:53:10.99

00:53:10.99\00:53:14.42
The silence. So love
with each B, 2 of my heart.
00:53:14.42\00:53:21.06
>> Looking for home.
00:53:21.06\00:53:23.26

00:53:23.26\00:53:27.54
