in the minors and there has been
00:00:35.86\00:00:40.37
nothing minor about these
major messages that we have been
00:00:40.37\00:00:45.11
hearing and this wonderful
music that we've been hearing
00:00:45.11\00:00:47.84
as well during this
hour. We're going to hear from
00:00:47.84\00:00:51.11
Christopher Hudson and I'll
tell you about him and just a
00:00:51.11\00:00:55.65
moment. But we'll also
get blast in song by Ryan Day.
00:00:55.65\00:01:01.72
Christopher Hudson is an
international evangelist and
00:01:01.72\00:01:04.93
the speaker director of the
4 Roanoke chronicles ministry.
00:01:04.93\00:01:10.27
And he's a student of the word
and a servant of the most high
00:01:10.27\00:01:16.30
God. Christopher Hudson
is extremely passionate about
00:01:16.30\00:01:19.44
spreading the gospel and he
does. So he creates programs.
00:01:19.44\00:01:23.71
He passes out literature
00:01:23.71\00:01:26.31
and he's quite bold. He's even
been to the Vatican. If you've
00:01:26.31\00:01:29.28
ever seen leopard vision,
then you seen some of the things
00:01:29.28\00:01:33.66
that he's been sharing. And
it's been absolutely incredible
00:01:33.66\00:01:36.59
to see how God has been using
him to reach many, many souls
00:01:36.59\00:01:43.03
for his kingdom
00:01:43.03\00:01:45.03

Now we see human beings.
00:06:24.91\00:06:27.45
It's a blessing.

Do you have Bibles with you?
00:06:29.55\00:06:31.55
We see of Bibles.
00:06:31.55\00:06:33.66
It's a beautiful. It's a
blessing to be able to come
00:06:33.66\00:06:37.19
together and study
the word of God. A man.
00:06:37.19\00:06:40.03
You know, I 7 debt dentist.
00:06:40.03\00:06:42.40
We used to be known as the
people of the book. Are you
00:06:42.40\00:06:45.50
familiar with that
term? The people of the book?
00:06:45.50\00:06:48.47
I'm a newcomer. So I just
became familiarized with that
00:06:48.47\00:06:51.41
term. The people of the book.
00:06:51.41\00:06:53.27
I remember when I
was a traveling from,
00:06:53.27\00:06:57.31
I was traveling from London
to go to Israel to do some
00:06:57.31\00:07:00.32
evangelists to meetings out
in on Jerusalem and Tel Aviv.
00:07:00.32\00:07:04.32
And I
00:07:04.32\00:07:05.52
as I boarded the plane, I sat
next to this Israeli gentleman.
00:07:05.52\00:07:08.79
And to this day, I still can't
remember exactly what it was
00:07:08.79\00:07:12.73
that led to us getting into
a conversation. But we began
00:07:12.73\00:07:16.10
laughing and talking as if
we had known each other and the
00:07:16.10\00:07:19.57
way that we were interacting
with one another was so
00:07:19.57\00:07:21.90
intimate that the people
that were traveling to do Israel
00:07:21.90\00:07:26.68
with me, they actually
thought I already knew this man.
00:07:26.68\00:07:30.21
So as we were in the plane
and we took off. So he asked me,
00:07:30.21\00:07:33.35
what are you going to Israel
for an I told him that I'm
00:07:33.35\00:07:35.68
going to be doing some
evangelists to meetings there.
00:07:35.68\00:07:37.95
And he said, oh, so you're
you're a Christian. And I say,
00:07:37.95\00:07:40.62
yeah,
00:07:40.62\00:07:42.19
he said, well, what
denomination are you a part of?
00:07:42.19\00:07:43.26
I said on the 7 dead dentist,
00:07:43.26\00:07:45.56
he said to have been to 7th day.
00:07:45.56\00:07:48.16
I don't know what the 7 Day
Adventists is. What is the 7th
00:07:48.16\00:07:50.30
Day Adventist.
00:07:50.30\00:07:51.57
And I thought to myself,
this is going to be interesting.
00:07:51.57\00:07:54.94
So I said, well,
00:07:54.94\00:07:56.94
we have we have
some things in common
00:07:56.94\00:07:59.77
like you, I believe in keeping
God, seven-day Sabbath. Holy,
00:07:59.77\00:08:04.85
I also believe in following
the health law's of Moses. But,
00:08:04.85\00:08:09.62
you know, I actually follow
00:08:09.62\00:08:13.12
God's recommended diet
in the book of Genesis,
00:08:13.12\00:08:16.49
Akio, even like that.
You say then for that one,
00:08:16.49\00:08:22.10
as I said this, these things to
this gentleman, he looked at me
00:08:22.10\00:08:25.33
and he said, you know what?
00:08:25.33\00:08:27.04
At first I was happy that
I was sitting next to you.
00:08:27.04\00:08:32.21
And then he said
00:08:32.21\00:08:34.31
now I feel on it.
00:08:34.31\00:08:36.54
Your son of Noah,
00:08:39.48\00:08:42.25
you're the people of the book
00:08:42.25\00:08:45.49
and he took a scarf
00:08:45.49\00:08:47.42
from around his neck
00:08:47.42\00:08:49.12
and he put it around my neck.
00:08:49.12\00:08:51.56
And then when we
got to the airport there
00:08:51.56\00:08:54.66
in Jerusalem, he took my bags
off of the turnstile and put it
00:08:54.66\00:08:58.83
on the card. I said I
am the people of the book.
00:08:58.83\00:09:02.14
I was my friend.
00:09:02.14\00:09:04.31
Others insist says it's a it's
an honor to be a known as the
00:09:04.31\00:09:07.81
people of the book.
00:09:07.81\00:09:09.44
I really think that we should
seek to the store that moniker
00:09:09.44\00:09:13.78
to write standing
amidst what do you say
00:09:13.78\00:09:16.75
before we get into the word
of God this evening as that will
00:09:16.75\00:09:19.35
be dealing with the subject,
the just shall live by faith.
00:09:19.35\00:09:23.46
So is my tradition to encourage
everyone to pray and because of
00:09:23.46\00:09:26.86
an audience, he I can encourage
you all the way. Please do 2
00:09:26.86\00:09:29.76
things. Number one,
please pay for yourself.
00:09:29.76\00:09:32.00
I fully believe that every time
that the Bible is open, that it
00:09:32.00\00:09:35.07
is the got the desired got
to put his spirit upon us. He
00:09:35.07\00:09:37.94
wants us to know what his will
is for such a time. Is this all
00:09:37.94\00:09:41.24
we have to do is ask
00:09:41.24\00:09:43.65
he says if we being even know
how to get good things and to
00:09:43.65\00:09:46.35
our children, how much more
with our father, which is in
00:09:46.35\00:09:48.38
heaven, give the whole the
spit on to them that asking.
00:09:48.38\00:09:51.19
So simply if we request
and humility, God will answer.
00:09:51.19\00:09:55.96
And we will. We see that which
we need for this time in which
00:09:55.96\00:09:59.23
we stand
00:09:59.23\00:10:00.36
and please pray for myself
as well. Because I know that I
00:10:00.36\00:10:02.76
need the Lord.
00:10:02.76\00:10:04.23
I just want to
be used by him. So
00:10:04.23\00:10:06.70
as it is my tradition, I'm
going to know to pray for those
00:10:06.70\00:10:09.10
of you that are inclined to do
so or are capable of doing so.
00:10:09.10\00:10:12.57
I invited him to do with me
and for the next few seconds,
00:10:12.57\00:10:15.58
literally just 60 seconds.
I would invite you to do
00:10:15.58\00:10:18.21
something because this is a
can't meeting. I would invite
00:10:18.21\00:10:20.65
you just to take 60 seconds to
pray silently even for those of
00:10:20.65\00:10:23.79
you that are watching at home
and bite you to join us for the
00:10:23.79\00:10:27.56
next few moments. Let's just
asked Lourd singe a holy spirit
00:10:27.56\00:10:30.43
working our hearts lead us in.
Your will give us the strength
00:10:30.43\00:10:34.83
to walk and what your purpose
is for our lives. And then when
00:10:34.83\00:10:38.20
you hear my voice so close
this out in prayer, let's pray.

00:13:23.06\00:13:25.17
and verse 4.
00:13:25.17\00:13:27.24
The title is the just
shall live by faith and havoc.
00:13:27.24\00:13:32.84
Chapter 2
00:13:32.84\00:13:35.44
and verse for
the Bible says behold
00:13:35.44\00:13:38.68
his soul,
00:13:38.68\00:13:40.85
which is lifted up
00:13:40.85\00:13:43.25
is not a pride in him,
00:13:43.25\00:13:45.52
but the just shall live
00:13:45.52\00:13:48.66
by faith.
00:13:48.66\00:13:50.13
The just shall live by faith.
00:13:50.13\00:13:52.33
The just shall live by faith.
What does it mean to live by
00:13:52.33\00:13:56.73
faith
00:13:56.73\00:13:58.87
matter of fact?
Here's a better question
00:13:58.87\00:14:01.40
at the onset.
00:14:01.40\00:14:03.47
What is faith?
00:14:03.47\00:14:05.71
Because how can we live by
something that we're not even
00:14:05.71\00:14:08.31
capable of identifying?
00:14:08.31\00:14:11.55
How can you live by faith
if you don't even have a clear
00:14:11.55\00:14:14.75
definition of what faith is?
00:14:14.75\00:14:18.72
You know, the Bible tells us
in the book of Psalms chapter.
00:14:18.72\00:14:22.49
33 beginning ever. 6 familiar
script. I believe to most of us
00:14:22.49\00:14:25.99
here,
00:14:25.99\00:14:27.50
some 33 looking at the 6 verse
00:14:27.50\00:14:30.17
the word of God, the clearance
00:14:30.17\00:14:32.60
by the word of the
Lord with the heavens made
00:14:32.60\00:14:35.30
and all the host of them
by the breath of his mouth
00:14:35.30\00:14:38.81
verse 9 goes on to say for
he spake and it was done. He
00:14:38.81\00:14:43.55
commanded and it stood fast.
You may not understand this,
00:14:43.55\00:14:49.68
but us comprehending
us understanding us fully
00:14:49.68\00:14:53.49
embracing the reality that the
word of God is responsible for
00:14:53.49\00:14:58.23
bringing everything invisible
creation into existence.
00:14:58.23\00:15:02.33
Us understanding that truth
is literally fundamental. It's a
00:15:02.33\00:15:06.37
cornerstone to our
belief system as Christians,
00:15:06.37\00:15:10.77
just fully comprehending
realizing embracing that God's
00:15:10.77\00:15:14.98
word is responsible for all
things in the visible world.
00:15:14.98\00:15:20.32
He created all things by his
word. This is very critical to
00:15:20.32\00:15:24.95
our belief system. As
Christians matter of fact,
00:15:24.95\00:15:27.19
goes into the book
of Hebrews Chapter 11
00:15:27.19\00:15:30.29
in Hebrews. The 11th
chapter beginning got first one.
00:15:30.29\00:15:33.23
This truth is expounded on
Hebrews chapter 11 verse that I
00:15:33.23\00:15:37.23
give you
00:15:37.23\00:15:38.57
Good Hebrews. Chapter 11,
looking at the first verse.
00:15:38.57\00:15:41.87
The Bible tells us there.
Now faith is the substance of
00:15:41.87\00:15:45.61
things hoped for the evidence
of things not seen by the
00:15:45.61\00:15:50.45
Elders obtained a good
report. Now, look at first 3
00:15:50.45\00:15:54.18
through faith. We understand
00:15:54.18\00:15:57.39
that the world were framed by
the word all God, so that that
00:15:57.39\00:16:02.62
things which are
00:16:02.62\00:16:04.69
scene were not made by things
which do up here to see what
00:16:04.69\00:16:09.00
the Bible is telling us here.
00:16:09.00\00:16:11.27
The word of God is telling us
that the invisible word of God
00:16:11.27\00:16:14.94
is responsible for bringing
into existence things that are
00:16:14.94\00:16:18.71
tangible,
00:16:18.71\00:16:20.01
things that are physical but we
can touch we can put our hands
00:16:20.01\00:16:23.51
on. We can view with the naked
eye. Are you following so far
00:16:23.51\00:16:27.18
the word of God is responsible
for bringing these things into
00:16:27.18\00:16:30.62
existence.
00:16:30.62\00:16:32.59
That's amazing.
00:16:32.59\00:16:34.12
So in Genesis Chapter one when
God said let there be light,
00:16:34.12\00:16:37.06
there was no light previous
to that declaration when he said
00:16:37.06\00:16:40.76
let there be light
light came into existence
00:16:40.76\00:16:44.97
because the light
existed in his word
00:16:44.97\00:16:50.21
in Genesis, Chapter one
and verse 14 when God said that
00:16:50.21\00:16:53.31
they be like in the
firmament of the heaven,
00:16:53.31\00:16:55.81
the divide the
day from the night
00:16:55.81\00:16:57.88
and let them be for signs
and for seasons and for days and
00:16:57.88\00:17:01.22
for years. And then it goes
on to Denver, 16 into clears.
00:17:01.22\00:17:04.95
So you made 2 great lights, the
great ally to rule the day and
00:17:04.95\00:17:08.19
the less alike to rule the
night and he made the stars.
00:17:08.19\00:17:11.19
Also, I don't even know if
there was a such thing as the
00:17:11.19\00:17:14.36
sun
00:17:14.36\00:17:15.50
Moon or a star prior to
God making that declaration.
00:17:15.50\00:17:20.87
But one thing is certain
00:17:20.87\00:17:23.67
when God said
00:17:23.67\00:17:25.51
let there be
light in the firmament,
00:17:25.51\00:17:28.48
the moon came into existence.
00:17:28.48\00:17:31.18
The sun began to burn
00:17:31.18\00:17:34.08
the stars big n Twinkly
00:17:34.08\00:17:37.29
friends because those things
that are tangible existed in
00:17:37.29\00:17:41.92
the invisible words,
00:17:41.92\00:17:44.46
God's word doesn't possess
creative power. God's word is
00:17:44.46\00:17:48.73
creative power
00:17:48.73\00:17:51.87
and it is through faith that
we understand that the word is a
00:17:51.87\00:17:56.44
creative agency. If
you're with me say, Matt,
00:17:56.44\00:17:59.67
that's important
00:17:59.67\00:18:01.41
this could all fall. It's
critical for us to understand
00:18:01.41\00:18:03.85
that.
00:18:03.85\00:18:05.15
I want you to talk with what
you go with me. I thought I was
00:18:05.15\00:18:07.72
going to go to Titus
Titus Chapter one. We're talking
00:18:07.72\00:18:11.29
about the word of God
00:18:11.29\00:18:13.49
in Titus. Chapter one,
00:18:13.49\00:18:16.36
looking at
00:18:16.36\00:18:18.53
verse 2.
00:18:18.53\00:18:20.96
It says they're in hope
of everlasting life in hope
00:18:20.96\00:18:25.20
of eternal life,
00:18:25.20\00:18:27.24
which God who
cannot lie promised.
00:18:27.24\00:18:31.97
>> Before the world began,
00:18:31.97\00:18:35.24
the one truth that I want
you to extract from that simple
00:18:35.24\00:18:38.61
verse is this God cannot lie,
00:18:38.61\00:18:44.95
which means God is too,
00:18:44.95\00:18:48.02
isn't that what John? 17 17
tells us sanctify them through
00:18:48.02\00:18:51.66
the night to thy word is huge.
Therefore, whatever God speaks,
00:18:51.66\00:18:57.80
it's true.
00:18:57.80\00:18:59.47
>> Because God cannot live.
Now coupled with that, the fact
00:18:59.47\00:19:03.44
that God's word
00:19:03.44\00:19:05.87
is creative power
00:19:05.87\00:19:08.01
and that means whatever God
declares to be will be even if
00:19:08.01\00:19:13.82
it never has been.
You don't get that point
00:19:13.82\00:19:18.42
because God cannot want
00:19:18.42\00:19:21.06
so whatever God that clears
it will be even if it never
00:19:21.06\00:19:25.66
existed before
00:19:25.66\00:19:27.96
whatever got promises
will become a tangible reality,
00:19:27.96\00:19:31.60
even if it seems
farfetched an impossible
00:19:31.60\00:19:37.57
because that is the nature
of the word of God and something
00:19:37.57\00:19:41.28
else that we didn't touch on
00:19:41.28\00:19:43.51
that the Bible presents to
us in psalm 33 and verse 9 that
00:19:43.51\00:19:48.95
when he speaks not only are
things done, but he commands
00:19:48.95\00:19:52.12
and they stand fast, which lets
us know that when God's word
00:19:52.12\00:19:55.82
brings things into existence,
he doesn't leave creation by
00:19:55.82\00:19:59.56
itself to maintain itself.
00:19:59.56\00:20:03.93
God's word itself sustains what
the were brings into existence.
00:20:03.93\00:20:09.84
So God makes himself up
countable for his own words.
00:20:09.84\00:20:13.88
That means God holds himself
accountable to his promises to
00:20:13.88\00:20:18.05
get the point friends.
00:20:18.05\00:20:20.18
Now, why is all that important?
00:20:22.92\00:20:25.65
It's all important because that
scripture, you know very well.
00:20:25.65\00:20:29.89
In Romans. Chapter 10
verse 17 tenure Bibles there.
00:20:29.89\00:20:34.83
Romans chapter 10
verse that I get you
00:20:34.83\00:20:37.43
good Romans Chapter 10
and we're looking at the 17th
00:20:37.43\00:20:40.60
verse, the word of God simply
states the U.S. here. So then
00:20:40.60\00:20:44.34
faith coming by I
hearing and hearing by the law
00:20:44.34\00:20:50.81
friends,
00:20:50.81\00:20:52.68
the foundation of all true,
real functional faith is what
00:20:52.68\00:20:58.39
you feel say, men,
00:20:58.39\00:20:59.85
why use a game?
And that's a lot.
00:20:59.85\00:21:02.82
I literally get the scripture.
I lie to you and you said Amen.
00:21:02.82\00:21:08.10
So you're not okay. I love it.
00:21:08.10\00:21:12.37
The foundation of all true
00:21:12.37\00:21:16.30
functional pay
00:21:16.30\00:21:18.61
is the word of God.
00:21:18.61\00:21:20.61
It has nothing to do with
what you feel. What you think.
00:21:20.61\00:21:24.61
What's the logical to you are
irrational to you? All of those
00:21:24.61\00:21:28.18
things have nothing to do with
the equation of what faith is
00:21:28.18\00:21:35.39
founded on the word of God,
not with your spirit tells you.
00:21:35.39\00:21:42.00
So if you have a faith
00:21:42.00\00:21:44.30
that is not
founded on the word of God,
00:21:44.30\00:21:47.47
in reality, you have no faith
00:21:47.47\00:21:53.68
and that will be made
abundantly clear in the very
00:21:53.68\00:21:57.01
near future when
the winds begin to blow
00:21:57.01\00:22:00.72
and the floods began rising.
00:22:00.72\00:22:04.02
And when those wins and the
trials that are coming in the
00:22:04.02\00:22:07.79
crisis before us slide,
the structure of this system of
00:22:07.79\00:22:11.89
faith that we've been living
by friends. We're going to find
00:22:11.89\00:22:15.26
out that when the enemy Hostin
Pos your Faith is seriously
00:22:15.26\00:22:18.67
going to fall down.
00:22:18.67\00:22:21.20
Are you with me friends?
00:22:21.20\00:22:24.71
Only those who have a faith
that is rooted in the in the
00:22:24.71\00:22:28.08
unchanging.
00:22:28.08\00:22:30.21
>> Power of the word of God
00:22:30.21\00:22:33.25
that alone will stand.
00:22:33.25\00:22:36.35
Faith comes by hearing
and hearing by the word of God
00:22:36.35\00:22:41.19
and a true fate.
00:22:41.19\00:22:43.29
A true faith
00:22:43.29\00:22:44.99
is a belief in the word of God
00:22:44.99\00:22:50.40
that it is
00:22:50.40\00:22:55.07
that everything he says is true
00:22:55.07\00:22:58.47
that all of his promises a trust
00:22:58.47\00:23:01.74
and not only
00:23:01.74\00:23:04.95
the utterances of
God true and faithful,
00:23:04.95\00:23:09.32
what every promise ins
00:23:09.32\00:23:12.32
what he whatever he did
clear is that he will do.
00:23:12.32\00:23:16.19
He will do it.
00:23:16.19\00:23:19.16
>> Even if he has to create.
00:23:19.16\00:23:22.16
>> A new thing or a new session
situation to bring his promise
00:23:22.16\00:23:27.17
into fruition.
00:23:27.17\00:23:28.77
I say that again,
00:23:28.77\00:23:30.74
a true fate.
00:23:33.81\00:23:35.34
>> It's a belief in the word
of God that God's word is true.
00:23:35.34\00:23:38.58
He will never lie to you.
All of his promises are sure
00:23:38.58\00:23:41.62
and stedfast and whatever he
says he has the ability to calm
00:23:41.62\00:23:45.75
accomplished, even if you
must create a new thing or a new
00:23:45.75\00:23:50.16
situation so he can fulfill the
promise that he's made to you
00:23:50.16\00:23:55.56
friends. This is true. What I'm
saying right now, there's not
00:23:55.56\00:23:57.67
some fancy works.
00:23:57.67\00:24:00.34
Think about this. He was
chapter 11. We always like to
00:24:00.34\00:24:03.20
talk about Abraham and no law.
When we go to Hebrews Chapter
00:24:03.20\00:24:07.24
11, let's talk about Salah.
00:24:07.24\00:24:11.91
I thought the system say it
anyway. People's job to 11 it
00:24:11.91\00:24:15.32
with me right now
00:24:15.32\00:24:16.95
in Hebrews Chapter 11, looking
at first 11, the Bible says by
00:24:16.95\00:24:22.19
Fay also signed a law
00:24:22.19\00:24:25.46
reesi shrank
00:24:25.46\00:24:27.86
that she should conceive C
00:24:27.86\00:24:32.17
and she was delivered of a
child when she was passed age
00:24:32.17\00:24:37.11
because she Judge 10
faithful that promised
00:24:37.11\00:24:42.94
how many of you here have ever
see have ever been invited to
00:24:42.94\00:24:46.88
the baby shower of a
90 year-old plus woman.
00:24:46.88\00:24:50.95
Exactly. You're laughing.
Why? Because just the idea of a
00:24:50.95\00:24:55.62
90 year old plus
woman being pregnant,
00:24:55.62\00:24:59.43
not only is it laughable, it
defies all science. It defies
00:24:59.43\00:25:03.33
all logic. It's literally
offensive to ration now.
00:25:03.33\00:25:06.87
So much so that when you
hear it, you laugh at it.
00:25:06.87\00:25:09.94
That's why when Sauer heard
she was going to have a child,
00:25:09.94\00:25:12.87
she laughed.
00:25:12.87\00:25:14.41
You're with me
right now, friends.
00:25:14.41\00:25:18.18
But when Savage Judge Tim, that
was that promise to be faithful
00:25:18.18\00:25:22.95
to you with me so far,
00:25:22.95\00:25:25.52
the Bible says she Judge 10 that
00:25:25.52\00:25:29.12
promised
00:25:29.12\00:25:30.89
that he was faithful.
00:25:30.89\00:25:32.43
>> It means in her mind she
dean that God who gave us her
00:25:32.43\00:25:36.10
this promise was able
to act complex. This thing,
00:25:36.10\00:25:41.27
thank God created a new
situation that had never been
00:25:41.27\00:25:44.54
seen before.
00:25:44.54\00:25:46.24
A 90 year-old
woman carrying a baby.
00:25:46.24\00:25:51.65
That's faith.
00:25:51.65\00:25:54.58
The word of God will go to the
extent of creating a situation
00:25:54.58\00:25:58.75
and circumstances that have
never been seen before because
00:25:58.75\00:26:02.79
God will always fulfilled
his promise to his people.
00:26:02.79\00:26:09.53
Do you believe in God's
word in this fashion front,
00:26:09.53\00:26:13.84
do you believe that when God
gives his word to you, even if
00:26:13.84\00:26:16.91
he has to create a miracle,
he'll do it so that he does not
00:26:16.91\00:26:19.97
find himself in your
eyes to be unfaithful.
00:26:19.97\00:26:23.58
God says all do it
00:26:26.75\00:26:29.35
because the just shall live by
00:26:29.35\00:26:35.39
with Matthew Chapter
for Matthew Chapter 4. We're
00:26:35.39\00:26:37.89
looking at the 4th verse in
Matthew Chapter 4 and verse 4
00:26:37.89\00:26:41.86
as Jesus was in the wilderness
of temptation, which most of us
00:26:41.86\00:26:44.93
are familiar with. And after
this season of hunger and being
00:26:44.93\00:26:49.50
assailed by Satan, there he was
00:26:49.50\00:26:53.27
Hungary and the enemy comes
to in towels. And if thou be the
00:26:53.27\00:26:56.81
son of God come and that
the stones may bread and inverse
00:26:56.81\00:27:00.22
for the word of God tells
us that Jesus responded to him.
00:27:00.22\00:27:03.75
It is red.
00:27:03.75\00:27:04.85
>> A man shall not live by
bread alone, but by every word
00:27:04.85\00:27:10.96
that proceeded
out of the mouth Gaw,
00:27:10.96\00:27:15.86
are you with me? Friends?
00:27:15.86\00:27:17.50
So to live by Fay is to live by
Watt every word that proceeded
00:27:17.50\00:27:24.51
out of the mouth of gaunt.
00:27:24.51\00:27:27.88
>> And we live by every word
that proceeds out of the mouth
00:27:31.18\00:27:34.55
of gone because we believe
every word that proceeds out of
00:27:34.55\00:27:38.82
the mouth of God
00:27:38.82\00:27:40.79
as we would take the
natural food into our bellies to
00:27:40.79\00:27:45.49
sustain our existence of idolize
00:27:45.49\00:27:51.30
these feeble human frayn's.
00:27:51.30\00:27:53.97
So we must consume the
word of God internalize it
00:27:53.97\00:27:58.64
and assimilated
00:27:58.64\00:28:00.78
divide. Allies are
Christian experience.
00:28:00.78\00:28:05.18
It's what gives
vitality to our Christian wall
00:28:05.18\00:28:09.48
behind our lives
00:28:12.09\00:28:14.42
is Jesus
00:28:14.42\00:28:16.49
and yes.
00:28:16.49\00:28:18.83
Are you with me
00:28:18.83\00:28:22.90
now? Okay. This is
what most people stop that
00:28:22.90\00:28:26.47
believe in the word of God.
00:28:26.47\00:28:28.40
It's powerful. It can create
miracles. God's word is true.
00:28:28.40\00:28:32.51
Believe in. It.
00:28:32.51\00:28:35.68
Only believe
00:28:35.68\00:28:39.21
I do with me right now.
00:28:39.21\00:28:41.18
This is where most
topped with living my pay.
00:28:41.18\00:28:48.06
But I like something that
we stated in that verse of
00:28:48.06\00:28:50.56
Scripture
00:28:50.56\00:28:51.79
Mansion, not live by bread
alone, but by every word that
00:28:51.79\00:28:54.60
preceded out of the mouth
of God, there's something else
00:28:54.60\00:28:58.33
that I want to
talk about this evening.
00:28:58.33\00:29:02.80
Go with me in your Bible is
we're going to go to the book
00:29:02.80\00:29:05.74
of Matthew Matthew Chapter
00:29:05.74\00:29:08.41
8. I believe
it's Matthew Chapter 8
00:29:08.41\00:29:12.31
in Matthew. Chapter 8, the meal
for my Bible and make sure I'm
00:29:12.31\00:29:15.58
giving you correct reference
00:29:15.58\00:29:18.02
in Matthew Chapter 8.
00:29:18.02\00:29:21.29
Yeah, that's correct. In
Matthew Chapter 8 looking at
00:29:21.29\00:29:24.43
verse to the Bible says
and behold, there came a letter
00:29:24.43\00:29:29.10
and worshiped him saying
00:29:29.10\00:29:31.97
if thou wilt
00:29:35.30\00:29:37.41
that tends to make me clean
00:29:37.41\00:29:41.64
and Jesus stretched
forth his hand and touched him
00:29:41.64\00:29:45.48
and said
00:29:45.48\00:29:46.92
I will
00:29:46.92\00:29:49.98
thou clean
00:29:49.98\00:29:52.19
and immediately
00:29:52.19\00:29:54.36
his leprosy
00:29:54.36\00:29:56.39
was class.
00:29:56.39\00:29:58.79
There's a lot of beauty
and those verses. But there's
00:29:58.79\00:30:00.76
something that I
want you to grasp.
00:30:00.76\00:30:04.30
God's word
00:30:07.87\00:30:10.11
is an expression of God's will.
00:30:10.11\00:30:13.51
Did you see that in your Bibles?
00:30:13.51\00:30:16.58
Jesus? Who is the son of God
00:30:16.58\00:30:21.52
when he said
00:30:21.52\00:30:22.85
>> be thou clean. What we heard
was the word of God, a man.
00:30:22.85\00:30:27.42
But the only reason he said be
thou clean was because he said
00:30:27.42\00:30:31.99
I will
00:30:31.99\00:30:36.10
him declaring that man to be
clean was an expression of his
00:30:36.10\00:30:40.87
wheel.
00:30:40.87\00:30:43.10
So the will of God is
expressed in the word of God.
00:30:43.10\00:30:49.38
Are you getting the point?
00:30:49.38\00:30:51.58
So when we talk about
the just living by Fay
00:30:51.58\00:30:55.92
that just live
00:30:55.92\00:30:58.62
by the will of God,
00:30:58.62\00:31:00.92
you're not with me
00:31:00.92\00:31:03.66
the just live.
00:31:03.66\00:31:06.43
But what God has
expressed to be his will.
00:31:06.43\00:31:12.87
That is our
bread. That is our meat
00:31:12.87\00:31:18.77
because what you live
00:31:18.77\00:31:20.61
by every word, every
expression of the will of God.
00:31:20.61\00:31:26.28
Now you can understand this
thought that Jesus presented to
00:31:26.28\00:31:30.25
his disciples in the book of
John Chapter 14 member when he
00:31:30.25\00:31:34.69
was talking to this.
Imagine woman at the well.
00:31:34.69\00:31:37.73
And after he told yeah, the
man that you're with right now,
00:31:37.73\00:31:41.06
he's not your husband as well.
00:31:41.06\00:31:42.83
And she ran to the city and
told them all come see him and
00:31:42.83\00:31:45.63
that he's told me everything
that I have ever, Don, he must
00:31:45.63\00:31:49.50
be the Christ. And then the
disciples came to him saying,
00:31:49.50\00:31:52.51
master, eat,
00:31:52.51\00:31:54.54
you must be hungry. And then
Jesus said to them, have me to
00:31:54.54\00:31:57.51
eat that, you know, not do
00:31:57.51\00:32:01.05
in John Chapter 4 and
verse. 34 listen to the words of
00:32:01.05\00:32:06.22
Christ. He said my meat,
00:32:06.22\00:32:09.39
my bread is to do the wheel
00:32:09.39\00:32:14.20
to do what
00:32:16.80\00:32:19.20
Miami is to do. The will upend
that sent me and to finish his
00:32:19.20\00:32:24.67
work
00:32:24.67\00:32:25.91
friends to live by Bay.
00:32:25.91\00:32:29.78
>> Is to do the wheel
00:32:29.78\00:32:31.91
I got.
00:32:31.91\00:32:34.68
But it also means in doing
that we must finish his work.
00:32:34.68\00:32:38.49
That means faith
without works is dead.
00:32:38.49\00:32:42.39
Thank you. With the front,
00:32:42.39\00:32:45.86
it's not only just believe
because if we embrace the will
00:32:45.86\00:32:49.56
of God, that means there's
a work for us to do for got
00:32:49.56\00:32:53.84
brothers insistence
00:32:57.01\00:32:59.67
my meat is to do the will of
God and to finish the work that
00:33:03.85\00:33:07.82
sent me. This
is what Jesus said.
00:33:07.82\00:33:10.55
That requires patients.
00:33:10.55\00:33:13.92
It requires a host of patients.
00:33:13.92\00:33:18.56
We even see that in the life
of Jesus. I want you to think
00:33:18.56\00:33:21.23
about this storm
00:33:21.23\00:33:23.20
in the book of John Chapter 7.
00:33:23.20\00:33:25.63
You can open your bibles
there with me. I want to talk a
00:33:25.63\00:33:27.87
little bit, too, as
you turn your Bibles there
00:33:27.87\00:33:30.31
in John Chapter 7 inverse tune.
00:33:30.31\00:33:33.07
The Feast of Tabernacles had com
00:33:33.07\00:33:37.05
and at this season, all the
men were gathered together as it
00:33:37.05\00:33:40.45
was commended in
the book of Moses.
00:33:40.45\00:33:46.82
The Brothers of Jesus came
to him and they said to him.
00:33:46.82\00:33:52.43
>> Going show yourself.
00:33:52.43\00:33:55.33
>> Do these works that you've
been doing it all of these
00:33:55.33\00:33:58.47
little known obscure
or villages and towns?
00:33:58.47\00:34:03.27
Why not go up to today
00:34:03.27\00:34:07.41
with us? And he drew, it is
with the priest with the People
00:34:07.41\00:34:10.31
Act goal. Show yourself to
Israel, make it known that you
00:34:10.31\00:34:14.58
are the Messiah.
You are the chosen seed.
00:34:14.58\00:34:17.29
>> And the reason they
were saying this was not because
00:34:17.29\00:34:19.95
they believe that Jesus was the
Messiah because if you look at
00:34:19.95\00:34:23.86
John Chapter 7 and verse 5,
it tells us for neither did.
00:34:23.86\00:34:27.96
His brother didn't believe in.
00:34:27.96\00:34:30.53
They didn't even believe in.
00:34:30.53\00:34:33.40
But in verse 8, I like
the response of Jesus there.
00:34:33.40\00:34:36.20
He said go he up to the feast,
00:34:36.20\00:34:39.47
go he up to the east.
00:34:42.44\00:34:45.05
I go up. Not get to the feast.
00:34:47.95\00:34:51.29
>> For my hour is not yet
00:34:51.29\00:34:57.29
the feast of Tabernacles.
This was the last feast,
00:34:57.29\00:35:01.50
the ceremonial
services for the year.
00:35:01.50\00:35:05.23
Jesus was the Passover
land. Are you following friends?
00:35:05.23\00:35:09.94
He still had time
00:35:09.94\00:35:11.71
before his time
would come to the full.
00:35:11.71\00:35:15.34
But can you imagine
00:35:15.34\00:35:17.81
that God inhabited
inhabiting humanity
00:35:17.81\00:35:21.82
went through a lot.
00:35:21.82\00:35:24.72
The word of God is clear
that he was a man of sorrows,
00:35:24.72\00:35:27.59
a man of sorrows, acquainted
with grief. Think about this
00:35:27.59\00:35:30.96
friends.
00:35:30.96\00:35:32.83
Jesus has to deal with brothers
that don't believe in him.
00:35:32.83\00:35:38.20
Chief priest and Pharisees
00:35:38.20\00:35:41.87
speaking ill about him lying
on him, always following him
00:35:41.87\00:35:46.54
trying to find some word to
use to condemn him. These people
00:35:46.54\00:35:51.65
hate him.
00:35:51.65\00:35:53.11
>> They want to kill him.
And then as God in the flesh,
00:35:53.11\00:35:56.02
he's looking at men and women
that were made in the image of
00:35:56.02\00:35:59.32
God literally rolling around
in the putrid state of sun and
00:35:59.32\00:36:03.69
iniquity
00:36:03.69\00:36:04.79
and Edward dating themselves
down to such an extent that
00:36:04.79\00:36:08.10
humanity became vessels fit
for the habitation of demons.
00:36:08.10\00:36:13.84
>> And he's looking at all
of these things. Can you imagine
00:36:13.84\00:36:17.51
that this really plied
the heart of Christ to such an
00:36:17.51\00:36:21.84
extent that at some point
in time he might have thought,
00:36:21.84\00:36:24.71
you know what, I really would
like to be back in the kingdom
00:36:24.71\00:36:28.05
with my father.
00:36:28.05\00:36:31.92
Can you not see that
such a situation would fly one
00:36:31.92\00:36:35.72
patients.
00:36:35.72\00:36:40.66
>> But Jesus had
to exercise patients.
00:36:40.66\00:36:44.33
You know why?
00:36:44.33\00:36:46.10
Because he knew
yet to finish the work
00:36:46.10\00:36:50.41
because living by faith demands
that you finish the work.
00:36:50.41\00:36:56.51
And so he had to exercise
patients. The same is true for
00:37:01.45\00:37:05.32
us. You know,
00:37:05.32\00:37:06.99
you open your bibles, the
Hebrews where we're going now.
00:37:06.99\00:37:10.56
If you go to Hebrews
00:37:10.56\00:37:13.03
the 10th chapter, I want to
look at the first. 35 with me
00:37:13.03\00:37:16.83
in Hebrews Chapter 10 looking
at burst. 35, the Bible tells
00:37:16.83\00:37:20.77
us the cast not away
there for your confidence,
00:37:20.77\00:37:24.87
which has rate recompense of
reward because he had need all
00:37:24.87\00:37:29.54
patients that after you
have done Baugh will of God.
00:37:29.54\00:37:34.95
>> You might receive all
promise. Don't passed away at
00:37:34.95\00:37:38.49
confidence.
Continue to live by bay.
00:37:38.49\00:37:43.22
>> Some of us are here in this
world. Friends. The bills start
00:37:43.22\00:37:45.89
mounting up. Family members
start dying. You get sick and
00:37:45.89\00:37:48.90
you start
questioning your faith.
00:37:48.90\00:37:52.87
Last year in 2020 you are
Gone. Co Jesus is coming 3 years
00:37:52.87\00:37:57.61
later. I don't
know what's happening
00:37:57.61\00:38:00.18
although the Lord.
00:38:02.58\00:38:06.75
>> Window I see Jesus.
00:38:06.75\00:38:11.19
>> Got is don't
castaway your confidence
00:38:11.19\00:38:14.29
that has great
recompense reward why? Because
00:38:14.29\00:38:17.69
>> you have need of patients
that after you have done the
00:38:17.69\00:38:22.03
will of God then and only then
will you receive the promised
00:38:22.03\00:38:26.13
the kingdom is before us clouds
of life. God will bestow upon
00:38:26.13\00:38:30.31
us the roles of righteousness.
He longs to adorn us with them,
00:38:30.31\00:38:34.38
but we must finish the work.
We have to go for be patient.
00:38:34.38\00:38:39.15
>> That after we've done the
will of God, we might. We see
00:38:45.39\00:38:47.69
the promise for yet a little
while he that shop com will com
00:38:47.69\00:38:52.09
and we'll not carry
now. Look at the next for us.
00:38:52.09\00:38:56.40
Now, the just shall live by bay.
00:38:56.40\00:39:00.64
But if any man jaws back my
social not have the light in
00:39:00.64\00:39:03.51
him, would Paul
get those words from
00:39:03.51\00:39:06.01
havoc objected to
00:39:06.01\00:39:08.58
and versatile
00:39:08.58\00:39:12.25
matter of fact,
Paul actually gave us
00:39:12.25\00:39:16.48
the proper translation of what
havoc of Chapter 2 and verse 4
00:39:16.48\00:39:20.99
stated win. It
00:39:20.99\00:39:22.39
presents to us. This idea,
00:39:22.39\00:39:25.33
behold his soul,
which is lifted up
00:39:25.33\00:39:29.13
is not a pride in,
00:39:29.13\00:39:31.40
but the just
shall live by faith.
00:39:31.40\00:39:34.47
You know, most of the times
when you look at have attempted
00:39:34.47\00:39:36.47
to members for all you talk
about is the just shall live by
00:39:36.47\00:39:38.91
faith. The just
shall live by faith.
00:39:38.91\00:39:41.58
How often do you hear
00:39:41.58\00:39:44.88
any discussion on the issue
of the soul that is lifted up is
00:39:44.88\00:39:47.75
not right in
00:39:47.75\00:39:50.19
which is being presented
to us in direct contrast
00:39:50.19\00:39:53.89
to the just living my faith
00:39:53.89\00:39:57.29
when the word of God tells
us here, the soul that is lifted
00:39:57.29\00:40:00.20
up and him, it is simply
staying stating that the man
00:40:00.20\00:40:03.47
and the woman that is pompous
00:40:03.47\00:40:06.00
that is proud that has swelled
up that is self will. That is
00:40:06.00\00:40:10.14
what cell wield.
00:40:10.14\00:40:16.78
The one that is presumption
is that is agate that will lean
00:40:16.78\00:40:19.81
upon their own understanding.
They're sold is not a pride in
00:40:19.81\00:40:23.25
them. The way is not right
before the Lord. The just shall
00:40:23.25\00:40:26.49
live by faith in makes a
lot of sense because if you're
00:40:26.49\00:40:29.39
self-willed how you're going to
live, according to the will of
00:40:29.39\00:40:32.06
God
00:40:32.06\00:40:33.50
because to live by faith is to
live according to what the will
00:40:33.50\00:40:38.33
of God is,
00:40:38.33\00:40:41.60
Joe, we'll
00:40:41.60\00:40:44.07
is antagonistic to his will.
00:40:44.07\00:40:48.18
>> And the only way we can
live by faith is if we fully
00:40:48.18\00:40:52.28
surrender fully subject
all wheel to God's will,
00:40:52.28\00:40:58.99
partial surrender will not do
00:40:58.99\00:41:03.06
total complete surrender to the
mind of God and that the lome
00:41:03.06\00:41:09.56
is acceptable
00:41:12.30\00:41:14.90
in the sight of goal.
00:41:14.90\00:41:19.64
>> All wheels must be
subject to the will of the.
00:41:19.64\00:41:24.41
>> Even Jesus experience this.
00:41:24.41\00:41:28.92
>> Brothers and sisters.
All of us know this. When we
00:41:28.92\00:41:30.85
look at the book of Matthew
Chapter, 26 in Matthew. The 26
00:41:30.85\00:41:35.22
top Chapter 10. Your Bibles
there with me, if you will.
00:41:35.22\00:41:37.69
You remember in Matthew
Chapter? 26 Jesus was in the
00:41:37.69\00:41:41.10
Garden of Gethsemane.
00:41:41.10\00:41:44.33
Any win there. He told
his Disciples, All Ye shall be
00:41:44.33\00:41:47.37
offended because of me. This
knife with his right and I will
00:41:47.37\00:41:49.57
smite the shepherd and the
sheep in the flock shall be
00:41:49.57\00:41:51.71
scattered abroad. But after
risen again, I will go before
00:41:51.71\00:41:54.71
you into Galilee and after
going back and forth with Peter
00:41:54.71\00:41:57.81
trying to let him understand
that he was not as established
00:41:57.81\00:42:01.15
as he thought he was,
because just like everyone else,
00:42:01.15\00:42:03.79
he would not die for him.
He would be offended by him.
00:42:03.79\00:42:06.52
He would leave him. But
anyway, Jesus kept going.
00:42:06.52\00:42:11.66
And then he told his disciples
my soul is exceeding sorrowful
00:42:11.66\00:42:14.96
even unto death tally here. And
00:42:14.96\00:42:18.17
watch with me.
00:42:18.17\00:42:19.57
I want you to
look at verse. 38 now
00:42:19.57\00:42:22.54
and Matthew. 26 and verse 38
00:42:22.54\00:42:26.21
Jesus in communicating with
his father in prayer. He said,
00:42:26.21\00:42:29.94
oh, my father.
00:42:29.94\00:42:32.31
>> If it be possible, let this
cup pass from me. Nevertheless,
00:42:32.31\00:42:36.72
not as I will. But as
00:42:36.72\00:42:39.19
>> president family members,
brothers and sisters, you see
00:42:39.19\00:42:41.76
what's going on here
00:42:41.76\00:42:44.09
as Jesus not comes
to the pivotal moment
00:42:44.09\00:42:49.23
with all the sins of humanity
from the time of Adam to the
00:42:49.23\00:42:52.90
very last baby that will ever
be conceived was being placed
00:42:52.90\00:42:56.07
upon him.
00:42:56.07\00:42:57.41
>> He's feeling the weight
of the son of every human being
00:42:57.41\00:43:00.48
that ever was an Everett would
come into existence and he's
00:43:00.48\00:43:03.68
beginning to experience
the separation that sin because
00:43:03.68\00:43:06.92
pauses between man and dog.
He says, you know what, I don't
00:43:06.92\00:43:10.45
like this.
00:43:10.45\00:43:12.19
This humanity did not like it.
00:43:12.19\00:43:17.46
>> We're told in the book does
I've ages wonderful book 6.24.
00:43:17.46\00:43:21.70
Paragraph 3, we're told right
there that his humanity should
00:43:21.70\00:43:25.23
say
00:43:25.23\00:43:26.47
from that hour of abandonment
00:43:26.47\00:43:31.64
because to every appearance,
00:43:31.64\00:43:35.48
it seemed that everyone
00:43:38.65\00:43:43.35
even a spot
00:43:43.35\00:43:46.45
I was going to do so
00:43:46.45\00:43:50.29
he shrank from it. Do you know
that word shrank? It means to
00:43:50.29\00:43:53.46
draw back
00:43:53.46\00:43:54.93
his flesh was flowing back.
00:43:54.93\00:43:57.63
Are you following right now?
00:43:57.63\00:43:59.83
God says if any man who was
backed by social not have the
00:43:59.83\00:44:03.24
light in,
00:44:03.24\00:44:04.81
but the flesh of Christ is
humanity was flying back from
00:44:04.81\00:44:08.01
the experience. The word of
God goes on to tell us when all
00:44:08.01\00:44:11.41
would see him stricken
smitten of God and afflicted.
00:44:11.41\00:44:17.59
He shrank
00:44:17.59\00:44:19.62
from public exposure
00:44:19.62\00:44:21.76
from being treated as
the worst of criminals.
00:44:21.76\00:44:26.19
He shrank
00:44:28.43\00:44:31.80
from a
dishonorable and shameful death.
00:44:31.80\00:44:36.20
In that hour. Jesus is the
going back and forth with the
00:44:36.20\00:44:39.57
father is saying, father,
I know that we determined any
00:44:39.57\00:44:43.11
turn of the past that this
would be the means by which
00:44:43.11\00:44:46.72
that home and it would be made
for humanity. But no, I don't
00:44:46.72\00:44:49.85
want to do it anymore.
00:44:49.85\00:44:52.29
It's uncomfortable.
00:44:52.29\00:44:55.09
>> Throughout all eternity.
I've been with you and now I'm
00:44:55.09\00:44:58.09
feeling separation from
you. This is comfortable.
00:44:58.09\00:45:02.86
I don't like
the way these things
00:45:02.86\00:45:05.80
and Jesus could not see
through the portals of the world
00:45:10.71\00:45:14.11
within. He said,
you know what, fog?
00:45:14.11\00:45:16.48
I must leave them an example
for what they must do in their
00:45:16.48\00:45:20.52
time of crisis.
00:45:20.52\00:45:23.39
So Lord, here is my humanity.
00:45:23.39\00:45:26.82
Here is this week's fall
and they just not my little,
00:45:26.82\00:45:32.33
but Lord, thy will be done,
00:45:32.33\00:45:36.46
not my weight,
00:45:36.46\00:45:38.80
but thy will be done.
00:45:42.00\00:45:44.01
How would Jesus able
to press forward by faith?
00:45:44.01\00:45:49.04
>> Because faith is the
substance of things hoped for.
00:45:49.04\00:45:52.35
The evidence of things not see.
Jesus could not see through the
00:45:52.35\00:45:56.35
pores of the tomb, but
he had the word of God.
00:45:56.35\00:46:01.39
>> He could not see beyond
the gray but he had the words of
00:46:01.39\00:46:05.13
the prophets.
00:46:05.13\00:46:07.13
>> Isaiah said
in Isaiah Tap to 53
00:46:07.13\00:46:10.97
and verse 11,
00:46:10.97\00:46:12.83
he shall see of the travail
of the soul and he shall be
00:46:12.83\00:46:16.40
satisfied
00:46:16.40\00:46:17.87
by his knowledge, Sean. My
right to serve and justify many
00:46:17.87\00:46:22.41
before he shot beer,
their iniquities fearful.
00:46:22.41\00:46:26.28
I will divide and a portion
with the great and he saw the
00:46:26.28\00:46:29.42
by the portion his portion
00:46:29.42\00:46:32.69
with the strong.
00:46:32.69\00:46:36.26
>> Because he poured
out his soul on to that
00:46:36.26\00:46:40.23
because he took our sins
00:46:48.10\00:46:51.31
and ball our iniquities
00:46:51.31\00:46:53.84
and in to see that for us.
00:46:53.84\00:46:57.15
He had the
words of the prophets.
00:46:57.15\00:47:01.42
He said God's word is true.
00:47:01.42\00:47:04.65
>> Even though I
can't see it got cannot lie.
00:47:04.65\00:47:08.79
Even though I cannot sense.
It got promises will always
00:47:08.79\00:47:12.39
come to past,
00:47:12.39\00:47:15.73
even though it cannot it.
00:47:15.73\00:47:18.80
There's nothing right now.
00:47:18.80\00:47:22.14
>> There's nothing right
now that gives any tangible
00:47:22.14\00:47:25.61
evidence that this is going to
happen. But the word of God has
00:47:25.61\00:47:29.58
created
00:47:29.58\00:47:30.68
it will make it happen.
00:47:30.68\00:47:32.85
So as the Bible
tells us in Hebrews
00:47:36.35\00:47:39.75
chapter left
captive 12 and verse 2
00:47:39.75\00:47:42.99
for the joy that
was set before him,
00:47:42.99\00:47:45.66
he endured the cross
00:47:45.66\00:47:48.03
despise the shame
00:47:48.03\00:47:50.13
and he is now set down at the
right hand of the throne of God
00:47:50.13\00:47:54.77
because God
fulfilled his promise.
00:47:54.77\00:47:58.04
And what we see the
air is the faith of Jesus.
00:47:58.04\00:48:02.94
That's the faith of Jesus
that all of us are to possess.
00:48:02.94\00:48:06.48
That is the faith of
Jesus that all of us.
00:48:06.48\00:48:09.55
>> Our to exhibit in our daily
experience, a total reliance
00:48:09.55\00:48:14.62
and dependence in got
00:48:14.62\00:48:18.26
a willingness to fulfill the
will of God and to do his work
00:48:18.26\00:48:23.67
even onto the deck and
know that God will be with us
00:48:23.67\00:48:29.87
that he'll never leave
us will never forsake us
00:48:29.87\00:48:34.44
friends. Abraham believed
the promise of God and you never
00:48:34.44\00:48:37.91
saw
00:48:37.91\00:48:39.58
his seed
00:48:39.58\00:48:41.95
as the stars
00:48:41.95\00:48:44.99
that populate the sky.
00:48:44.99\00:48:47.82
But the sense
00:48:47.82\00:48:50.63
that carpet the beach.
00:48:50.63\00:48:52.86
>> But can you imagine in the
first resurrection when he's in
00:48:52.86\00:48:55.36
the kingdom
00:48:55.36\00:48:56.70
will be this
standing next to Jesus
00:48:56.70\00:48:59.17
and Jesus were point
him to look at every head.
00:48:59.17\00:49:01.97
A neighbor. Hamill
look over 10 is a father,
00:49:01.97\00:49:04.67
my friend.
00:49:04.67\00:49:06.64
You fulfill the promise.
00:49:06.64\00:49:08.81
Not with me for it
00:49:08.81\00:49:10.85
because God's word is true.
00:49:13.72\00:49:16.25
Do you embrace the word
of God true for yourselves?
00:49:19.99\00:49:23.99
This is the faith of Jesus that
God is calling each one of us
00:49:28.30\00:49:32.73
to possess each one of us to
exhibit and we must possess in
00:49:32.73\00:49:37.01
these last days in
which we currently stand
00:49:37.01\00:49:40.71
and every day God is
giving us an opportunity
00:49:44.18\00:49:48.75
to embrace him as true
00:49:48.75\00:49:51.25
faithful
00:49:51.25\00:49:52.85
as dependable
00:49:52.85\00:49:55.06
as the one that loves us
00:49:55.06\00:49:57.19
and always will stand by us.
00:49:57.19\00:50:01.83
You have to try
00:50:01.83\00:50:06.60
just a couple of years ago
was traveling from the South
00:50:06.60\00:50:09.24
Pacific
00:50:09.24\00:50:11.04
came back too California.
We had an appointment to go
00:50:11.04\00:50:14.94
over to Zimbabwe and has with
there in California eating an
00:50:14.94\00:50:20.48
ice began mill driving in the
car. My wife looked over at me
00:50:20.48\00:50:23.69
and she said our flight to
Zimbabwe. Just that from New
00:50:23.69\00:50:26.39
York.
00:50:26.39\00:50:28.26
So what happened?
00:50:28.26\00:50:30.73
He said the person who arranged
the flight, evidently they
00:50:30.73\00:50:33.53
messed it all up. They set up
a day today instead of tomorrow.
00:50:33.53\00:50:38.00
So we called them up. We told
them what happened. They were
00:50:38.00\00:50:40.30
beating themselves over the
head. Then we begin to rapidly
00:50:40.30\00:50:42.97
quickly look for, you know,
some some flights that might be
00:50:42.97\00:50:47.34
able to fit into the schedule.
And because it was Christmas
00:50:47.34\00:50:50.28
season, there was nothing.
And I said to myself, this is
00:50:50.28\00:50:53.15
not going to happen. So
that's the end of the story.
00:50:53.15\00:50:56.42
And then they said, well,
if you can just get over to
00:50:56.42\00:50:59.55
London, then we can
try to work something out.
00:50:59.55\00:51:03.46
And we flew back to New York
and as we got to New York to
00:51:03.46\00:51:07.13
JFK Airport
00:51:07.13\00:51:09.20
and we we we we
look to see the pricing
00:51:09.20\00:51:14.27
for flights from New York
to London during the Christmas
00:51:14.27\00:51:17.01
season and they were asking
for your first born child.
00:51:17.01\00:51:21.41
I said, well, that's
settled. We're not going.
00:51:21.41\00:51:23.98
It's just not going to happen.
00:51:23.98\00:51:28.68
God was pressing the go
00:51:28.68\00:51:31.22
because my wife and I we have
been studying the word. We've
00:51:34.89\00:51:37.29
been looking into the
scriptures and got have been
00:51:37.29\00:51:39.19
putting some things on our
heart that he wanted us to do
00:51:39.19\00:51:41.70
is work. And the spirit of
God just started pressing go.
00:51:41.70\00:51:47.44
I said Lourdes is we
don't even have it. He said go,
00:51:47.44\00:51:52.11
we jumped on the plane.
00:51:52.11\00:51:56.28
We got over to London. We
got there. They lost our backs.
00:51:56.28\00:52:03.39
Then a brother picked us up
in a car, good brother. They
00:52:03.39\00:52:06.59
missing
00:52:06.59\00:52:10.13
and he picked us up to take
us to his home. But as we were
00:52:10.13\00:52:13.09
driving in the car,
00:52:13.09\00:52:15.80
he began talking. He was
talking a lot, but he's talking
00:52:15.80\00:52:18.67
good stuff. So it was OK,
00:52:18.67\00:52:23.47
and as he was talking, he began
to say how he had this great
00:52:23.47\00:52:26.57
desire to start a school in
this rule area that he grew up
00:52:26.57\00:52:31.45
in in Zimbabwe's in a place
called go quay. And he just
00:52:31.45\00:52:34.92
said, you know, it's my desire,
hope one day to do it. And as
00:52:34.92\00:52:37.15
he's talking about setting up
the school, met my wife and are
00:52:37.15\00:52:39.62
looking back and forth at
one another because we had just
00:52:39.62\00:52:42.49
been praying about establishing
a scent of influence like a
00:52:42.49\00:52:45.46
school.
00:52:45.46\00:52:47.86
>> So he's talking and I'm
looking at him and he's looking
00:52:47.86\00:52:50.90
at me and I looked at
him, I said, rather will do it.
00:52:50.90\00:52:54.37
He said, what do I said
was we're going to set up the
00:52:54.37\00:52:56.20
school, said he didn't think we
were serious. Some brother says
00:52:56.20\00:52:59.47
we're going to do
00:52:59.47\00:53:01.31
finish my
00:53:09.25\00:53:11.29
time there in London, jumped
on the plane to come back to New
00:53:11.29\00:53:15.06
York. As soon as I got back
into New York driving in the
00:53:15.06\00:53:19.33
car with my wife, I got a
notification on the phone.
00:53:19.33\00:53:22.53
Somebody that I don't know,
sent us a donation covered all
00:53:22.53\00:53:26.60
the airfare that
took us to London.
00:53:26.60\00:53:29.44
And I just smiled
and looked at my life.
00:53:32.27\00:53:34.64
I said this all got work to be.
00:53:34.64\00:53:38.58
Then we got home and we
began talking about this school
00:53:38.58\00:53:41.85
project and establishing it and
what needed to be done. And we
00:53:41.85\00:53:45.22
prayed and said, well,
we're going to make whatever
00:53:45.22\00:53:46.76
sacrifice we need to make it
as we're talking the phone rings
00:53:46.76\00:53:49.79
and then someone is on the
phone that I've never talked to
00:53:49.79\00:53:52.03
before. And they said this
is Chris Watson as they get one.
00:53:52.03\00:53:55.70
They said, listen, we sent
the donation using our card,
00:53:55.70\00:53:59.50
but we're looking at our report
here. We don't see it. Can you
00:53:59.50\00:54:02.37
check your system to see
because it doesn't make any
00:54:02.37\00:54:04.71
sense? So I said, OK, we
went to go look, and then
00:54:04.71\00:54:09.38
I asked them as I was looking
in. I said, well, not exactly
00:54:09.38\00:54:12.11
how much was the mountain, then
they told me them out. And then
00:54:12.11\00:54:14.58
I said, well, I don't see
it, but you can send it not
00:54:14.58\00:54:17.85
and friends.
00:54:25.43\00:54:27.66
The monies they sent.
00:54:27.66\00:54:29.73
It was all the monies that
were needed to start the school
00:54:29.73\00:54:32.07
project.
00:54:32.07\00:54:36.24
The just shall live,
00:54:36.24\00:54:38.87
I say.
00:54:38.87\00:54:43.28
>> To know and believe that our
God is capable of accomplishing
00:54:43.28\00:54:48.42
the impossible
00:54:48.42\00:54:50.99
doesn't have to
fit into all logic
00:54:50.99\00:54:54.52
doesn't have to
jive with our rationale
00:54:54.52\00:54:57.86
because God is not subject
to logic. He supersedes logic.
00:54:57.86\00:55:02.60
He's the author on the Logic.
Everything that is logical.
00:55:02.60\00:55:06.80
It's because he
brought it into existence.
00:55:06.80\00:55:11.91
So why are we trying
to put got into a box?
00:55:11.91\00:55:16.51
What does your
faith look like France?
00:55:16.51\00:55:19.25
You know, we on to reversing
the final hours of this or to
00:55:19.25\00:55:23.52
existence as we presently know
it. What does your faith look
00:55:23.52\00:55:27.56
like?
00:55:27.56\00:55:29.49
What are you living by?
00:55:29.49\00:55:31.96
Are you living based?
00:55:31.96\00:55:34.30
Are you living according to
your own understanding? You say
00:55:34.30\00:55:37.20
that you serve God according
to his will. But when his wheel
00:55:37.20\00:55:40.44
doesn't sound logic to
logical to you, then you try to
00:55:40.44\00:55:43.47
reinterpret his word
to fit into your thinking.
00:55:43.47\00:55:48.98
Are you like Jesus?
00:55:48.98\00:55:51.48
You say God, which are asking
me to do is quite uncomfortable
00:55:51.48\00:55:54.58
to me
00:55:54.58\00:55:56.18
what you're asking me to do
it. It doesn't even make sense.
00:55:56.18\00:55:59.69
It doesn't even appear
logical to me. But no matter
00:55:59.69\00:56:03.49
by the word of the
Lord with the heavens made
00:56:03.49\00:56:06.26
and all the host of
them by the rest of his not
00:56:06.26\00:56:10.97
your world is the substance
of things hoped for the evidence
00:56:10.97\00:56:14.44
of things not seen
00:56:14.44\00:56:17.17
got. I've never seen you FAO
00:56:17.17\00:56:20.88
and I don't believe I
ever will see you fail.
00:56:20.88\00:56:24.25
So I'm going to trust you.
00:56:24.25\00:56:26.65
I'm going to follow you.
00:56:26.65\00:56:29.95
And if I fell in the
process and so be it,
00:56:29.95\00:56:33.69
I'd rather feel being obedient
00:56:33.69\00:56:37.49
that stand by
myself in rebellion.
00:56:37.49\00:56:40.53
You've got to make these
crucial decisions. Brothers
00:56:43.60\00:56:45.70
insistence
00:56:45.70\00:56:48.00
living by faith. God
never told us it was going to be
00:56:48.00\00:56:50.34
comfortable. One thing I love
about the savior is he doesn't
00:56:50.34\00:56:53.58
lie to us. He doesn't tell
us it's going to be a better
00:56:53.58\00:56:56.58
roses. He says if any man would
come after me, let him deny
00:56:56.58\00:57:00.58
himself, pick up his cross and
follow me. He tells us in this.
00:57:00.58\00:57:03.99
Well, gee, shall
have to relations.
00:57:03.99\00:57:05.65
>> But be of good
cheer. I've overcome the world.
00:57:05.65\00:57:08.29
What God has promised us.
00:57:08.29\00:57:09.82
>> Is low. I will be with you
always even. And to that end of
00:57:09.82\00:57:14.20
the world, the
world will stand with us.
00:57:14.20\00:57:19.50
>> Will you stand with the word?
00:57:19.50\00:57:22.50
God help you?
00:57:22.50\00:57:24.27
May. He bless you.
00:57:24.27\00:57:26.11
Maybe strengthen you
00:57:26.11\00:57:29.11
your life by faith.
