Speaker 1: Hey, this is Stephen Ferdick.
Speaker 2: I'm the pastor of Elevation Church and this is our podcast.
Speaker 1: I wanted to thank you for joining us today. Hope
Speaker 1: this inspires you. Hope it builds your faith.
Speaker 2: Hope it gives your perspective to see God is moving
Speaker 2: in your life.
Speaker 1: Enjoy the message. When I say God is good, you
Speaker 1: say all the time, and then I say all the time,
Speaker 1: and you say God is good all the time. Grab
Speaker 1: the hand of the person next to you. Father, thank
Speaker 1: you for this moment, a holy moment, a sanctified moment,
Speaker 1: a set apart moment, a special moment, a moment that
Speaker 1: we'll never see again. Thank you for this day. Thank
Speaker 1: you for the sunrise. Thank you for that breath. Thank
Speaker 1: you for the person whose hand I'm holding. Thank you
Speaker 1: for bringing them through and bringing them here. Thank you
Speaker 1: for what you brought them out of. Thank you for
Speaker 1: what you're leading them into. I ask for the person
Speaker 1: that's on my right and on my left today that
Speaker 1: you would give them the kind of confidence that comes
Speaker 1: from knowing that they will never take a step that
Speaker 1: you haven't already gone before them. I thank you that
Speaker 1: you are the God who goes before us when we
Speaker 1: feel like falling. I thank you that you are the
Speaker 1: God who catches us a firm foundation beneath our feet.
Speaker 1: And when we sometimes forget how big you are, I
Speaker 1: want to thank you that you are the God who
Speaker 1: is above us, and your ways are higher than our ways.
Speaker 1: Your thoughts are higher than our thoughts. As the rain
Speaker 1: falls from the heaven and waters the earth and doesn't
Speaker 1: return to it without accomplishing that which it was sent
Speaker 1: to do, so shall your word be that comes forth
Speaker 1: from your mouth today. It will not return unto your void.
Speaker 1: It never does, it can't. It must accomplish what you
Speaker 1: sent it to do. I thank you for the worship
Speaker 1: that your people have given you today. You're worthy of it.
Speaker 1: We clap our hands right now because you're worthy of it.
Speaker 1: Your worship you because you're worthy. Now repeat after me, say,
Speaker 1: and God, I thank you for this word that you
Speaker 1: are about to speak. I receive it. It's true. Amen,
Speaker 1: high five fifteen people, and stay standing for the reading
Speaker 1: of God's word. Put all of that in the chat,
Speaker 1: would you. I receive it. It's true. Put it in
Speaker 1: the chat right now, God speak. I receive it. It's true.
Speaker 1: God Speak, I receive it. It's true standing I thought
Speaker 1: I said that. Sorry about that. Just all kinds of
Speaker 1: exercise you're getting today, jumping and sitting and standing. Tell
Speaker 1: your neighbor discount says your workout. Got to the point
Speaker 1: in my life where I don't like to skip physical workouts,
Speaker 1: but I really if I had to skip either a
Speaker 1: physical workout or if I had to skip the Word
Speaker 1: of God, I would skip the physical one. Because the
Speaker 1: things that I'm battling in my life right now are
Speaker 1: not flesh and blood. There are some of us in
Speaker 1: the room who are wrestling against principalities and spirits of discouragement,
Speaker 1: spirits of despair. And you never know what news you're
Speaker 1: gonna get when you leave this place. But I promise
Speaker 1: you God's got good news for you today. That's what
Speaker 1: gospel means. It means good news that we were dead
Speaker 1: and alive in Christ, that Jesus Christ is King of
Speaker 1: kings and Lord of lords, and he has come to
Speaker 1: bind up the broken hearted, to set the captive free,
Speaker 1: and to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor. Somebody shout,
Speaker 1: this is my year. I don't know what the first
Speaker 1: four months were like, but tell them these next eight
Speaker 1: these next eight are going to be great. Praise the Lord.
Speaker 1: Praise the Lord. I want to share with you today
Speaker 1: from a passage of scripture that I mentioned last week.
Speaker 1: When I mentioned it last week, I knew immediately that
Speaker 1: this is where we would start today because something very
Speaker 1: special happened in the moment that I read Galatians six'.
Speaker 1: Nine and this may be a scripture that you want to.
Speaker 1: Memorize you may need to quote this one back to the,
Speaker 1: devil and you may need to quote it to your,
Speaker 1: yourself or you may need to give it to a
Speaker 1: friend who's fighting. Cancer BUT i really love this, verse
Speaker 1: And i'm gonna share with you today From galatian six to.
Speaker 1: Nine at least that's where we'll. Start you're, like, oh,
Speaker 1: short sermon only one. Verse do not be Deceived galatians,
Speaker 1: six verse, nine and let us not grow weary of doing,
Speaker 1: good for in due season we will reap if we
Speaker 1: do not give. Up told you the word Of god is.
Speaker 1: Powerful let's read it out loud, together, please verse nine
Speaker 1: and let us not grow weary of doing, good for
Speaker 1: in due season we will reap if we do not give.
Speaker 1: Up now that you got my, cadence let's read it together,
Speaker 1: again and let us not grow weary of doing, good
Speaker 1: for in due season we will reap if we do
Speaker 1: not give. Up, yeah go ahead and respond to that
Speaker 1: however you want. To all, Right SO i want to
Speaker 1: give you my title to your neighbor today and just
Speaker 1: look at them real quick in their eyes and, SAY
Speaker 1: i know you're going through a. LOT i know you've
Speaker 1: been confused about a few. Things AND i know you
Speaker 1: don't know who to talk to because you don't know
Speaker 1: who you can. Trust AND i know it feels like
Speaker 1: there's more on you then you can. Bear now here
Speaker 1: comes the. Title tell them. This but all you've got
Speaker 1: to do is. Don't all you've got to do is
Speaker 1: don't see how that big to do list you came
Speaker 1: to church with just got. Smaller all you've got to
Speaker 1: do is. Don't father helped me show it to them
Speaker 1: how you showed it to, me and we'll all be.
Speaker 1: BETTER i give you praise In jesus'. Name, amen, shout
Speaker 1: don't on your way to your, seat be. Seated be.
Speaker 1: Seated sometimes your teenagers help you to understand your sermon
Speaker 1: a little bit. Better abby came downstairs after sleeping till
Speaker 1: noon yesterday AND i, said how are? You good? Morning she,
Speaker 1: Said i'm. Tired, now why are you? Tired you went
Speaker 1: to bed at ten, pm you woke up at twelve.
Speaker 1: Pm fourteen hours is sufficient. REST i get. It there
Speaker 1: have been times in my life WHERE i went on,
Speaker 1: vacation came back and needed a vacation for recovery from the.
Speaker 1: Vacation and really it's your expectations of vacations that mess you,
Speaker 1: up because you, think, like, oh IF i can just
Speaker 1: make it to this, beach IF i can just make
Speaker 1: it to these. Mountains but every single thing that you
Speaker 1: had with you in the valley goes with you to the,
Speaker 1: mountain and every single mountain that you have in your
Speaker 1: life goes with you to the. Beach so In galatians chapter,
Speaker 1: six verse, nine The Great Apostle, paul speaking to the
Speaker 1: church in modern Day, turkey is giving an encouragement to
Speaker 1: Some christians who are being tempted to go back to
Speaker 1: an old way of life And. Judaism, now these Particular
Speaker 1: christians are Gentile, christians so they're not familiar With jewish.
Speaker 1: Customs and one of the customs that The jewish believers
Speaker 1: wanted to put on their gentile counterparts was this custom called,
Speaker 1: circumcision and they were, saying if you really want to Follow,
Speaker 1: christ you need to be. Circumcised And paul, said, no
Speaker 1: you don't turn to your neighbor and, say, no you
Speaker 1: don't half the rules that people tell you about being
Speaker 1: A christian that you have to do this and you
Speaker 1: have to do. That no you. Don't somebody told ME
Speaker 1: i want to come to, elevation BUT i heard you
Speaker 1: have to dress. Up that was, like you have to.
Speaker 1: Dress that's the dress code at. Elevation do just do
Speaker 1: dress and that's. IT a lot of the things that
Speaker 1: you think you need to enter in the presence Of,
Speaker 1: god no you. Don't you just need the name Of,
Speaker 1: jesus the blood Of, jesus and an open. Heart so
Speaker 1: if you think you need to have a perfect week
Speaker 1: before you can pray To, god no you don't tell your.
Speaker 1: Neighbor no you. Don't in, fact if there's somebody here
Speaker 1: today and you're thinking about becoming a follower Of christ
Speaker 1: and you think you need to clean up your life
Speaker 1: to come to, him much like these people In galatia
Speaker 1: might have thought they needed to be circumcised externally in
Speaker 1: order to come To. Christ if you think you need
Speaker 1: to make an outward behavior modification before you can have
Speaker 1: an inward renewal or. Change, no you. Don't in, fact
Speaker 1: if the sun, sets you're. Free you're. Free, Indeed and
Speaker 1: sometimes what wears us out and exhausts us is. Expectations
Speaker 1: The lord spoke that me one. Time NOW i want
Speaker 1: to tell you this in the most personal way, possible
Speaker 1: but not share any inappropriate. Details there was a moment
Speaker 1: in my ministry WHERE i felt very close to What
Speaker 1: i've heard called. Burnout and it's been several years, ago
Speaker 1: but it was intense enough THAT i was telling The
Speaker 1: lord things LIKE i can't do, THIS i can't go,
Speaker 1: on AND i don't have what it. Takes and in
Speaker 1: the process of that being, cyclical not just once on
Speaker 1: A wednesday for a hard, meeting but week after week
Speaker 1: after week after. Week the chronic urge to quit is
Speaker 1: a signal that something needs to. Shift the chronic urge
Speaker 1: to quit not the, passing fleeting urge to, quit but
Speaker 1: the chronic urge to quit is a signal that something
Speaker 1: needs to. Shift and in my particular, CASE i felt
Speaker 1: like all of the work that was on, me combined
Speaker 1: with the work of raising family and you're, like, no
Speaker 1: raising a family isn't. Work raising a family is a.
Speaker 1: Reward children are a blessing from The, lord and they.
Speaker 1: Are but have you ever had your quiver full quiver
Speaker 1: full with sharp objects called. ARROWS a full quiver hurts
Speaker 1: sometimes you want to quit fill in that quiver. Sometimes
Speaker 1: but AS i was processing all of that in my
Speaker 1: heart and in my, prayers The lord showed me something very,
Speaker 1: powerful AND i think that it will help you. Today he,
Speaker 1: said you keep thinking that the problem is that the
Speaker 1: work is too great for, you and you assume that
Speaker 1: you are weary because of the work THAT i gave,
Speaker 1: you the work of being a, dad the work of
Speaker 1: being a, husband the work of being a, pastor the
Speaker 1: work of leading a, church and all of the. Work
Speaker 1: the travel was intense at that point in, Time the
Speaker 1: organizational life cycle was at a very immature stage of,
Speaker 1: development and it was moving through some. Transitions And he's,
Speaker 1: said you think that the reason you're, Weary paul, said
Speaker 1: let us not grow weary of doing. Good you think
Speaker 1: that the reason you're weary is because of the. Work
Speaker 1: but the reason you're weary is not because of the.
Speaker 1: Work it's because of your worry about the. Work AND
Speaker 1: i started to see that it was not WHAT i
Speaker 1: was doing For god that was wearing me. Out it
Speaker 1: was WHAT i was doing For god That god never
Speaker 1: asked me to do to begin, with that was wearing me.
Speaker 1: Out does this sermon feel like a lifeline to anybody
Speaker 1: in the room? Today so when he, says let us
Speaker 1: not grow weary of doing, good for in due season
Speaker 1: we will reap if we do not give, up we
Speaker 1: have to start by asking the, question why AM i?
Speaker 1: Weary and this is not intended for those of you
Speaker 1: who are visiting a relative at the nursing home every
Speaker 1: day right, now or you are in a custody battle
Speaker 1: that is sucking all of your. Resources although there is
Speaker 1: a word for you, TODAY i am not telling you
Speaker 1: that if you would simply turn it, over it would
Speaker 1: no longer be. HARD i am saying that you would
Speaker 1: be able to handle much more weight if you would
Speaker 1: change the way you do the. Work for The bible
Speaker 1: says let us not grow weary in doing good and
Speaker 1: don't grow weary is kind of one of those things
Speaker 1: that people say that sounds good until you really think about.
Speaker 1: It how AM i supposed to don't grow weary with
Speaker 1: this schedule THAT i. Have how AM i supposed to
Speaker 1: not grow weary when it's twenty four to? Seven how
Speaker 1: AM i supposed to not grow weary when everybody is
Speaker 1: wearing me? Out it's kind of like people telling you
Speaker 1: get well soon when you're. Sick oh, gee, Thanks i'll
Speaker 1: get right on. That that sounds like a, plan and
Speaker 1: don't grow weary can kind of sound like get well
Speaker 1: soon unless you stop and realize that beneath the, injunction
Speaker 1: don't grow weary is an invitation to understand why you're.
Speaker 1: Weary and in my, case AS i begin to break
Speaker 1: down all of the, EXPECTATIONS i realized that it was
Speaker 1: expectations that were exhausting. Me expectations can be. Exhausting expectations
Speaker 1: can be, Exhausting AM i right about? It the expectations
Speaker 1: that others have of you can be. Exhausting the expectations
Speaker 1: of what it means to be a mom in this
Speaker 1: day and age can be exhausting of. You the expectation
Speaker 1: WHEN i was growing up to have your kid in
Speaker 1: sports was just to get them to the field On
Speaker 1: tuesday And thursday for their baseball. Game but now if
Speaker 1: your kid is going to be a real baseball. Player
Speaker 1: you've got to sign them up for A TRIPLE a
Speaker 1: team when they're seven years. Old oh, no you will
Speaker 1: no longer have time for church On. Sunday you are
Speaker 1: going to be in travel, ball because if your kid
Speaker 1: misses one season of travel, ball they will be traumatized
Speaker 1: by the fact that they didn't play travel. Ball and
Speaker 1: it feels like to me there is greater and greater
Speaker 1: expectation not only for, parents but there is greater expectation
Speaker 1: on our kids than ever before, too not just because
Speaker 1: they have to be on this team or that, team
Speaker 1: but because they are spending so much time on everybody else's.
Speaker 1: Timeline and now our kids no longer have fomo fear
Speaker 1: of missing. Out they have pomo proof of missing, out
Speaker 1: because not only DO i have to think about the
Speaker 1: fact that they might be doing something without, ME i
Speaker 1: actually see the proof that they're doing something without. Me
Speaker 1: so Now i've got anxiety coupled with depression and isolation
Speaker 1: at the most vulnerable time in my, life And i'm
Speaker 1: only fourteen years, old AND i don't know how to handle.
Speaker 1: It why AM i? Tired why are kids going so
Speaker 1: crazy these? Days why does there seem to be such
Speaker 1: a surge in mental health epidemics that we keep reading
Speaker 1: about statistically that can only be fixed, spiritually because The bible,
Speaker 1: says let us not grow weary in doing. Good and
Speaker 1: what The lord gave me during that season of burnout
Speaker 1: that was very helpful to, me AND i share it
Speaker 1: with you in the offer that it can be of
Speaker 1: use IS i will give you the strength you need
Speaker 1: to do your, job BUT i will not give you
Speaker 1: the strength to do. Mine god, SAID i will give
Speaker 1: you all the strength you need to do your, job
Speaker 1: BUT i will not give you the strength to do.
Speaker 1: Mine and so this phrase comes up in the. Text it,
Speaker 1: says let us not grow weary of doing. Good doing
Speaker 1: good is an interesting phrase, too by the, way because
Speaker 1: it's never been harder to feel like you're doing good
Speaker 1: than it is right. NOW i THOUGHT i was good
Speaker 1: at playing guitar growing up because none of my other
Speaker 1: friends played, guitar so compared to, THEM i was doing.
Speaker 1: GOOD i didn't have proof in my pocket that there
Speaker 1: are nine year olds who can play guitar better than.
Speaker 1: Me at age forty, Five it's never been harder to do.
Speaker 1: Good you used to have to go to the lake
Speaker 1: to see your friend had a better boat than. You,
Speaker 1: now all you have to do is pick up your
Speaker 1: same device that has Your bible lap on, it and
Speaker 1: you have to see their boat on the same device
Speaker 1: that you picked up to see Your bible when you
Speaker 1: scroll Their instagram. Account and what you don't know is
Speaker 1: that they went broke to buy the, boat and you
Speaker 1: are blind to their. Brokeness so you are discouraged by their. Boat, yeah,
Speaker 1: no wonder you're. Tired no wonder you're. Tired you thought
Speaker 1: you weren't getting enough, Protein you thought you weren't getting enough,
Speaker 1: sleep and you might not. Be but why? Not and
Speaker 1: The lord showed, ME i will give you the hours
Speaker 1: that you need to do your, job not. MINE i
Speaker 1: will give you the wisdom you need to do your,
Speaker 1: job not. MINE i will give you the strength you
Speaker 1: need to do What i've assigned you to. Do but
Speaker 1: the MOMENT i forget That god is, sovereign the moment
Speaker 1: THAT i forget That god makes the, SCHEDULE i negate
Speaker 1: the topic called do. Time let us not grow weary
Speaker 1: of doing, good doing, good for in due season we will.
Speaker 1: Reap and here's the, problem is that somebody on your
Speaker 1: row is doing better than, you and somebody on your
Speaker 1: row is doing worse than, you and you are comparing
Speaker 1: how you know you're doing to how you think they're.
Speaker 1: Doing AM i preaching this? Thing or AM i just caffeinated?
Speaker 1: Today due Season it's one of those phrases in church
Speaker 1: that just makes us want to shout for in due,
Speaker 1: season there is a due season That god knows how
Speaker 1: to bring everything you need into a. Moment The greek
Speaker 1: for this is cairo. Idio it means the appointed. Time
Speaker 1: the word chiros In greek does not mean time like
Speaker 1: a clock or a. Calendar that word is. Kronos that
Speaker 1: word is a word that challenges my, Wife. Holly holly
Speaker 1: struggles with kronos, time like what it. Is she brought
Speaker 1: me an article recently that showed me that scientifically there
Speaker 1: is a condition called time, blindness and she, Said, Babe
Speaker 1: i've figured out Why i'm always. Late but you, know
Speaker 1: worse than being blind to kronos time is being blind
Speaker 1: to chiros. Time the word for due season In galatians six'
Speaker 1: nine is. Chiros time chronos time means you showed up
Speaker 1: at eight thirty and you were supposed to be there.
Speaker 1: At eight that's. CHRONOS conflict i don't have enough time
Speaker 1: to get. It. Done chiros time MEANS that i can
Speaker 1: be on time for Everything that i'm supposed to do
Speaker 1: and miss the very Reason that god brought me to.
Speaker 1: That moment because a lot of the things that we
Speaker 1: worry about Kill the cairos in. Our life there are
Speaker 1: many here Today that god wants to speak a word
Speaker 1: to and he brought you to speak it. To you
Speaker 1: but if you check your Phone while, i'm preaching you
Speaker 1: could Kill. Your cairos you could kill the Moment that
Speaker 1: god wanted to show you a distinction in a battle
Speaker 1: that you're. Dealing with you could kill that moment because
Speaker 1: you had to check a text and, you, SAY well
Speaker 1: i have to check the text. Right now you don't
Speaker 1: have to multitask when you're in the presence Of the
Speaker 1: master of. The universe with maybe. Three exceptions in this
Speaker 1: room you've got a sick kid in they're not. With
Speaker 1: you you don't have to check out. Right now and
Speaker 1: many are the times in my LIFE where i have
Speaker 1: Killed a cairos MOMENT because i was. CHRONOS aware i
Speaker 1: was trying to get it, all DONE and i Missed
Speaker 1: what god wanted to DO because i was busy trying
Speaker 1: to get it. All done But sometimes god will stop
Speaker 1: you in your tracks, And say i'm shifting the priority in.
Speaker 1: This season i'm shifting what you think you need. To
Speaker 1: do i'm shifting where you think you need. To be
Speaker 1: i'm tired of you Killing your, cairos moments and nothing
Speaker 1: will kill it quicker. Than comparison nothing will Kill your.
Speaker 1: Chiros moments The season god has you in as, a
Speaker 1: man has, you in as a, single person has, you
Speaker 1: in as, a mom has, you in as somebody who
Speaker 1: is waiting for your next step to. Be revealed nothing
Speaker 1: will Kill what god is doing in you quicker than
Speaker 1: you comparing it to what You think god is doing in.
Speaker 1: Someone else somebody shall do season Do. Season now this
Speaker 1: does not mean the season when you get what you Deserve,
Speaker 1: from GOD because i promise you don't ever want that season.
Speaker 1: To come i'm gonna come over to the real side of.
Speaker 1: THE room i stumbled over Into The super saved section for,
Speaker 1: that POINT and i should have been. Over here there
Speaker 1: are some of us in this room who Don't want
Speaker 1: god to give us what. We deserve i'm gonna come
Speaker 1: to the back of the Room because i'm surrounded by
Speaker 1: holy angels who always, live right who always, lived good
Speaker 1: who always said their prayers and ate their Vitamins Like
Speaker 1: hulk hogan taught. Them to but there are some of
Speaker 1: us who Don't want god to give us what. We deserve.
Speaker 1: That's mercy mercy Is when god does not give you what.
Speaker 1: You deserve mercy is when your sin is nailed to
Speaker 1: the cross and you, can, say oh the bliss of this.
Speaker 1: Glorious thought my sin not, in part but the whole
Speaker 1: is nailed to, the CROSS and i bear it. No
Speaker 1: more Praise, the lord oh. My soul that's Mercy when
Speaker 1: god doesn't give me the wrath and punishment that my,
Speaker 1: sin deserve, but grace grace takes it a. Step further
Speaker 1: not Only that god did not give me what my,
Speaker 1: sins deserved but that grace gives ME what i did,
Speaker 1: not DESERVE that i could. Never earn that grace gave
Speaker 1: ME what i could never grind, to GET that i
Speaker 1: could grind my, whole life sow my, whole life work my.
Speaker 1: Whole life and how many know one Moment, of cairos
Speaker 1: one moment, of grace one Moment of, god's favor one
Speaker 1: Moment of god's hand moving things around in. YOUR life
Speaker 1: i want to put this out there. For somebody god
Speaker 1: can give you so much grace it will make the
Speaker 1: time you. Wasted irrelevant so when we say, do season
Speaker 1: it may be easy for you to shout about that
Speaker 1: because you may be living in it. Right now you
Speaker 1: may be living in the blessing that you prayed for.
Speaker 1: Right now you may be experiencing things that you dreamed about.
Speaker 1: Right now you may have your family back together, right
Speaker 1: now and it may be a happy time around. Your
Speaker 1: table and we rejoice with. YOU today i think we've
Speaker 1: got Some jealous christians. In here we rejoice with. You
Speaker 1: today if the man of your dreams just proposed to you,
Speaker 1: last night took you to a restaurant with table cloths,
Speaker 1: and menus and you came in here today not only
Speaker 1: to Worship, the lord but to show off. Your ring
Speaker 1: if it's we celebrate, with you we celebrate with. You season, come.
Speaker 1: On y'all they prayed for a long time about that is.
Speaker 1: Do season if you just got, TO raise i celebrate,
Speaker 1: with you and you. Better Tide but god said there
Speaker 1: are some people on your role that while you are Celebrating,
Speaker 1: do season there are just as many people in here
Speaker 1: who are in. Don't SEASON so i want to preach
Speaker 1: about what to do in. Don't season what to do in.
Speaker 1: Don't season when you feel the Presence, of god that
Speaker 1: is a wonderful time To. Praise GOD but i want
Speaker 1: to preach about the season when you don't when you
Speaker 1: don't believe the words that are coming up on, the
Speaker 1: screen but you sing Them like he saved you to,
Speaker 1: believe them not just. FEEL them i want to preach
Speaker 1: about don't, season today don't season when she's got a
Speaker 1: ring and. YOU don't i want to preach to empty ring.
Speaker 1: FINGERS today i want to preach to. DON'T season i
Speaker 1: want to preach to when people call them and asked
Speaker 1: them to go to parties and they don't call you
Speaker 1: because you are trying to. LIVE different i want to
Speaker 1: preach about. Don't season and the reason we don't preach
Speaker 1: about don't season is because it doesn't clip good. For
Speaker 1: TikTok nobody wants to hear that The same god who
Speaker 1: will bring you into a due season will walk you
Speaker 1: through a. Don't season and there are Some things god
Speaker 1: help me preach that can only be Learned about god
Speaker 1: in the don't SEASON when i don't, feel ENCOURAGED when
Speaker 1: i don't, feel HOPEFUL when i don't know what, to
Speaker 1: DO but i do the last thing that, he SAID
Speaker 1: when i don't doubt in the darkness what he showed
Speaker 1: me in. The light there are five hundred of you
Speaker 1: who are in adult. Season today but you did what
Speaker 1: you did when you came, to Church because god is who,
Speaker 1: he is whether he does or he doesn't do what
Speaker 1: you thought he was gonna do when you thought he
Speaker 1: was gonna, do IT or i feel it so. Somebody
Speaker 1: shall this is my season to do it when. HE
Speaker 1: doesn't I thank god for THE times i stand up
Speaker 1: to preach to YOU and i Feel like he's given
Speaker 1: me a WORD and i know what he told me.
Speaker 1: To speak those are. Wonderful times they are cotton candy
Speaker 1: and licorice and blow pops and. Jolly ranchers oh how
Speaker 1: sweet it is to Know that god spoke. To ME
Speaker 1: but i still gotta do IT when. I don't you
Speaker 1: gotta do it when. You Don't bro i'm gonna say it.
Speaker 1: Real nice forget your. Feelings stuff sewing to, the flesh
Speaker 1: sew to. The Spirit that's galatians. Six eight because if
Speaker 1: we sew to, the flesh we from the flesh. Reap
Speaker 1: corruption but if we sew to, the spirit we will
Speaker 1: from the spirit. Reap life by, the way what you
Speaker 1: sew too is where you. Reap from so whenever you're,
Speaker 1: doing good do it, two people but not, four people
Speaker 1: because if you do good, for people then you got
Speaker 1: to get good. From people but if you do Good,
Speaker 1: for god then whether people do good back to you,
Speaker 1: or not you will reap From. The SPIRIT and i
Speaker 1: wanted to tell you Something that, jesus SAID but i
Speaker 1: want to give it to you in. Three points now
Speaker 1: you're going to have something to write down today so
Speaker 1: you will have proof that you went. To church, number
Speaker 1: one the THING that i Hear the lord saying for
Speaker 1: everybody who is in a dun't season of your life
Speaker 1: is don't hold. Too tight or maybe grammatically it should,
Speaker 1: be tightly but you can either write it down how
Speaker 1: it sounds cool or how. It's correct the cool way
Speaker 1: to say it is don't hold. Too tight how many
Speaker 1: TIMES was? I worried AND so i, was WEARY and
Speaker 1: i thought it was, the work but it was. The
Speaker 1: worry galatian sixty nine says due Time is, god's Job
Speaker 1: and god will give you the strength to do, your
Speaker 1: job but Not his god to give you the strength to.
Speaker 1: Do good, he said don't grow weary of. Doing good
Speaker 1: god will give you the strength to, do Good but
Speaker 1: he will not give you the strength To. Do, god
Speaker 1: so if one enemy of cairos in, your life And
Speaker 1: when god aligns things in, your life if one enemy
Speaker 1: is comparison to somebody, else's chiros another enemy of that.
Speaker 1: Is control and if the metaphor of this is sowing,
Speaker 1: a seed if, he says let us not grow weary
Speaker 1: in doing good for. Induce season that seed will become
Speaker 1: a harvest and you will reap if you don't. Give
Speaker 1: up if that is, the metaphor then the seed is
Speaker 1: not effective. Without release and so there is an element
Speaker 1: of control of timing that we all want To put
Speaker 1: god on. Our chronos We want god to do his
Speaker 1: chiros in, Our chronos wow to do his stuff on. Our.
Speaker 1: SCHEDULE now i preach about this all the time because
Speaker 1: our deadlines kill. Our chiros and that's why, he said
Speaker 1: you you got to understand. Do season god. Does stuff
Speaker 1: how many agree? WITH that i should make a point
Speaker 1: and put that on. The screen god. Does stuff god
Speaker 1: does stuff on. His schedule how many agree? With that
Speaker 1: so it's. Due season don't hold, too tight don't strangle,
Speaker 1: a seed don't hold. Too TIGHT when i first started
Speaker 1: lifting real, heavy weights AND y'all i can lift pretty,
Speaker 1: HEAVY weights i got an injury in my ELBOWS and
Speaker 1: i Came, to chunks who was our executive pastor of,
Speaker 1: the church and he used to be a. Physical THERAPIST and,
Speaker 1: I said I guess i'm going to have to stop lifting.
Speaker 1: So heavy i'm lifting so heavy my elbows. Are hurting
Speaker 1: and he looked at me like he had seen this a.
Speaker 1: Thousand times, he goes you're not lifting. Too heavy you're
Speaker 1: not lifting. Too heavy you're gripping. Too tight, he said
Speaker 1: you're holding. Those dumbells at, THE time i was bench
Speaker 1: pressing ninety five pound dumbbells on an. Incline, bench yeah some.
Speaker 1: Heavy weight he hadn't been excited. All day i've been
Speaker 1: talking About the lord and that's the FIRST clap i
Speaker 1: got out. Of him. Right there i'll, take, it brother,
Speaker 1: He said, he said do you REMEMBER when i shared
Speaker 1: this BACK when covid. First started I'LL be. I said,
Speaker 1: he said you can lift more if you would fix.
Speaker 1: Your grip you can lift that weight if you would
Speaker 1: change the way you. Lift it and so one of
Speaker 1: the THINGS that i have to come back to again
Speaker 1: and again in my life IS am i weary because of,
Speaker 1: the work because sometimes you have to narrow? Things down
Speaker 1: OR am i Weary because i'm worrying about, the work
Speaker 1: which leads me to point. Number two don't? Time travel don't,
Speaker 1: Time travel jesus said Clearly in matthew, chapter six verse.
Speaker 1: Thirty four do not worry. About tomorrow time travel for
Speaker 1: tomorrow will worry hurry. About itself each day has enough
Speaker 1: trouble of. Its own SO am i tired because of
Speaker 1: my to? Do list OR am i tired because of my? Tomorrow?
Speaker 1: List god remember the FIRST time i Went to australia,
Speaker 1: to PREACH and i was so jet lagged because when
Speaker 1: you Go, to australia it's like fourteen hour. Time difference
Speaker 1: you cross over the international, date line so you are literally.
Speaker 1: In tomorrow your body comes from yesterday. Into tomorrow that's.
Speaker 1: What happens and nobody told me how bad the jet.
Speaker 1: Lag WAS so i flew in the SAME day i
Speaker 1: had to preach the. First session so it's my first
Speaker 1: time preaching on, the, continent Right and i'm just landing
Speaker 1: and back home it's like, seven pm And in australia it's,
Speaker 1: Nine am AND so i figured i'd freak the. Kids
Speaker 1: out holly was them, to BED and i FACETIMED and
Speaker 1: i opened the blinds and the, sun was of course
Speaker 1: shining brightly because it's nine Am in australia and at
Speaker 1: seven pm where, they are so it was. Dark outside
Speaker 1: and they were, so confused how is the? Sun up
Speaker 1: they were. Very young, you understand they're much more. Sophisticated
Speaker 1: now they understand the solar system in all of its complexities.
Speaker 1: And sophistication but how is the sun up over there
Speaker 1: when You're. In australia AND so i Told them i'm.
Speaker 1: In tomorrow i'm. In tomorrow they thought that was. So
Speaker 1: cool and just before we hung up, the CALL because
Speaker 1: i had to go preach and they had to go,
Speaker 1: to sleep one of them looked at me, and, Said,
Speaker 1: hey daddy before, you go can you tell us what?
Speaker 1: Happens tomorrow in that a powerful thing to have a
Speaker 1: father who's already in, your future, come on and not
Speaker 1: a powerful Thing that jesus Said the pagans run after
Speaker 1: all these things, to wear what, to drink what, to
Speaker 1: eat all the things that we put on our to.
Speaker 1: Do List but jesus summarizes all of those, worries down
Speaker 1: all of those worries that have you so weary and
Speaker 1: running around and now can't sleep even when you have time,
Speaker 1: to sleep because when you should, be sleeping, you're scrolling
Speaker 1: and you're scrolling when you should be sleeping because you're
Speaker 1: trying to see something that will suit something from trying
Speaker 1: to control something that is outside of. Your control and
Speaker 1: so now not ONLY am i gripping, too TIGHT but
Speaker 1: i am trying to do today, from TOMORROW and i
Speaker 1: am worried. About tomorrow but tomorrow has somebody already in
Speaker 1: it who. Controls It if I'm, a CHRISTIAN if i Believe,
Speaker 1: in GOD if i Believe, in JESUS then i have
Speaker 1: a father who is already in. The future and there
Speaker 1: are some of us who are spiritually jet lagged because
Speaker 1: we get to tomorrow. Too soon you keep crossing over
Speaker 1: the international. Date line you are not only thinking, about
Speaker 1: tomorrow you are thinking about ten thousand tomorrows. From now
Speaker 1: WHY am? I tired WHY am i weary of? Doing
Speaker 1: GOOD because i am no longer only focused on the
Speaker 1: Good that god has given me to. DO today i
Speaker 1: am focused on the GOOD that i am Concerned that
Speaker 1: he will not do for. Me tomorrow but if he
Speaker 1: was good to, me yesterday and if he's, good today
Speaker 1: And if god, is good then all, the TIME and
Speaker 1: i will Bless the lord at, all times and his
Speaker 1: praise will continually be in. My NOW so i can plan.
Speaker 1: For tomorrow but THE part i can't PLAN for i can.
Speaker 1: Pray about and THE part i can't, PRAY about i can,
Speaker 1: praise about because EVEN when i don't know what, To
Speaker 1: pray god is already in tomorrow doing what he needs.
Speaker 1: To do, do season. Do season sometimes you got, To,
Speaker 1: say god you. DO it. I can't it's. Due season
Speaker 1: it's time for you to do something About. This god
Speaker 1: i've TRIED everything i know. To try i've SET everything
Speaker 1: i know. To say i've wished everything i've learned. To
Speaker 1: wish i've FOLLOWED everybody i thought. To follow i've asked
Speaker 1: everybody whose number is in. My PHONE but i need
Speaker 1: to call on somebody who's not in. MY phone i
Speaker 1: need a father who's in, my future WHO knows i need.
Speaker 1: These THINGS so i can seek first. The kingdom you
Speaker 1: keep talking to yourself about tomorrow and you're not. In
Speaker 1: it so now you've got jet lag because you're trying
Speaker 1: to go to tomorrow with. TODAY'S strength i told you
Speaker 1: your to do list just got shorter because you can
Speaker 1: put your plan for next month. On there we all
Speaker 1: have to, keep calendars we all have to, do kronos
Speaker 1: but chiros can swallow cronos. LIKE that i was meeting
Speaker 1: with some pastors a couple of, weeks ago And the
Speaker 1: lord told me to tell them that some of you
Speaker 1: are worried that the time you took to be at
Speaker 1: this meeting is going to cost, too much and you
Speaker 1: have too much to do to. Be here but you,
Speaker 1: flew in and you sacrificed to, be Here and god
Speaker 1: can do something in one moment that will make six
Speaker 1: months of. Meetings unnecessary when you get, back home you,
Speaker 1: believe that or you might have to have, the meeting
Speaker 1: which gives me my. Third point don't hold, too tight don't,
Speaker 1: time travel don't time travel, to tomorrow and don't time
Speaker 1: travel to the. Past either do you think you Got
Speaker 1: a DeLorean up in? This church you Think you're marty
Speaker 1: McFly up in. This church but, number three don't, turn
Speaker 1: back and let us not grow weary in. Doing good
Speaker 1: this might be the first time they've heard it. All
Speaker 1: week would you turn to the person next to you
Speaker 1: and shake their hand, and say you're, Doing good you're,
Speaker 1: Doing good you're doing good to be, In church you're
Speaker 1: doing good to be watching a YouTube sermon. On YouTube
Speaker 1: there's other things. On YouTube chose this or? The ALGORITHM
Speaker 1: did i pray all? The time lord hijack the algorithm
Speaker 1: and get this message to somebody's phone who needs a
Speaker 1: just do a terrorist takeover of? Their algorithm And the,
Speaker 1: lord said don't. Turn BACK so i want to tell
Speaker 1: you a story that Parallels with galatians, six' nine just
Speaker 1: to illustrate what we're Saying. FROM the bible i love
Speaker 1: To illustrate the Bible. With the bible so, when we
Speaker 1: say and let us not grow weary in doing good for,
Speaker 1: in due season we will read if we do, not
Speaker 1: give up put the verse up one more time before,
Speaker 1: We move forward and let us not grow weary. Of
Speaker 1: doing good underline doing good for. In due season. Underline
Speaker 1: due season god's going. To do it god Does stuff.
Speaker 1: On god's schedule due season, in due season. We will
Speaker 1: reap and all you've got to do is. Don't, give
Speaker 1: up underline do not because somebody's in a. DON'T season
Speaker 1: today i don't have what IT takes and i don't know.
Speaker 1: What to do you don't have to. RAISE your hand
Speaker 1: i would not single you, out for that but you
Speaker 1: listen to me if you are in, ADULT season today
Speaker 1: i don't have what IT takes and i don't know.
Speaker 1: WHAT to do i want to Tell You an old
Speaker 1: testament story about A. King named joshuapad you can find
Speaker 1: A Story in. Second chronicles twenty there are several chapters.
Speaker 1: About his reign there are some peaks, in some valleys,
Speaker 1: some good decisions. Some bad decisions Sometimes he trusted god
Speaker 1: and sometimes when he trusted, his own flesh in. His
Speaker 1: own mind but in, THIS particular case i think he's
Speaker 1: a wonderful example for what to do in. A, dult
Speaker 1: season see he, was doing good he was. Doing really
Speaker 1: good he was A, king of judah which was, the
Speaker 1: southern kingdom and this was, a very, rebellious idolatrous nation.
Speaker 1: Much like ours. Much like ours we don't have all
Speaker 1: these same shrines, that they have but we have all
Speaker 1: of our same, priorities mixed up and we worship status and,
Speaker 1: we worship stuff and we worship people's opinions more Than
Speaker 1: we seek god's. Validation and commands so we. Relate to
Speaker 1: this and he was doing good. AS a, king i
Speaker 1: mean he went out on one Bad Run with, ahab ahab,
Speaker 1: died HE lived and i think he was sobered up
Speaker 1: by coming that. Close to death you know how when
Speaker 1: you have, a close call, when, you're, LIKE oh well
Speaker 1: i got to. Get IT together and i think that's what,
Speaker 1: happened to him because he started sending all these priests
Speaker 1: all through the kingdom to reestablish the covenant that the
Speaker 1: People had with god that he was to, be their
Speaker 1: God that, the lord said do not put any other
Speaker 1: gods beside me. Or before me. Don't do it so
Speaker 1: he was kind of sending a revival wave through the
Speaker 1: nation and in the process of all of this building
Speaker 1: a lot. Of military power but there came a battle
Speaker 1: upon him that he, was not expecting was, not prepared
Speaker 1: for and didn't know. What to do so when they
Speaker 1: came To Him in second chronicles twenty verse one and
Speaker 1: told him there, was an attacker, says after this after
Speaker 1: all the good things. He was doing, by the way
Speaker 1: we tend to assume that if things are going bad
Speaker 1: in our life that we must be Off. Track with
Speaker 1: god if things are going good, in our life then
Speaker 1: we must be On. Track with god sometimes the devil
Speaker 1: will leave you alone if You're, not following christ and
Speaker 1: you'll actually feel like you're in a good season when
Speaker 1: actually you are in a season. Of compromised, faith not
Speaker 1: always But sometimes now jehasha fat who is, doing good
Speaker 1: reforms religious. Reforms, And revival remember god corrects his, people
Speaker 1: for rebellion but The enemy attacks god's people when. They're
Speaker 1: in revival and you might be in a revival in your,
Speaker 1: life right now but the. Attack is strong, so they
Speaker 1: said they're, coming At, you The, ammonites the Moabites, even
Speaker 1: The meuites which i'd never. Heard of before so like
Speaker 1: enemies are coming, Out Of everywhere enemies i've never even
Speaker 1: heard of Before in the bible are coming. After this
Speaker 1: Guy and the bible says he was, alarmed by this
Speaker 1: he was. Surprised, by it now one of the reasons
Speaker 1: that we struggle with spiritual attacks is because we're surprised.
Speaker 1: When they happen if we could just make up our. Minds,
Speaker 1: To know then. I'm not surprised i'm not. Surprised by
Speaker 1: this i'm not surprised that the temptation. Came back strong
Speaker 1: i'm not surprised that things are. Starting to act this
Speaker 1: would be, my fourth point. Don't be surprised but his
Speaker 1: surprise drove him to a place of seeking strength And,
Speaker 1: seeking the lord and seeking Strength. From the lord so
Speaker 1: now he, begins to pray and he begins to he
Speaker 1: Begins to remind god of all that he did for
Speaker 1: his people. In the past, And, he said god you
Speaker 1: said if we would stand here and, pray to you
Speaker 1: that you would drive back your enemies. For your glory
Speaker 1: you promised this from The. Time of abraham you've been
Speaker 1: doing this. A. Long TIME god now i need you
Speaker 1: to do What. You do god and here is the
Speaker 1: Key Phrase, of second, chronicles chapter. Twenty verse, Twelve, he Said,
Speaker 1: oh our god will you? Not judge them these are
Speaker 1: enemies that are. Bigger than us these are enemies that
Speaker 1: are positioned, to kill us and they. Are close by
Speaker 1: they are already in a. Day's march away so by
Speaker 1: this time tomorrow they are going. To overtake us we
Speaker 1: do not have. Time to strategize we do not have
Speaker 1: time to build. Up for this our enemies did not
Speaker 1: ask our permission or give us advanced notice before they snuck.
Speaker 1: Up on us this season of my life did not
Speaker 1: ask my permission. Before it came it didn't even schedule
Speaker 1: Itself on. A kronos calendar i didn't, see this coming just,
Speaker 1: Out Of, nowhere our god will you not judge them
Speaker 1: for we. Have no power we don't have. What it
Speaker 1: takes we don't have. What it takes do you feel?
Speaker 1: That way today we don't have what IT takes and
Speaker 1: i don't have, what THEY need and i don't have what.
Speaker 1: This moment requires we have no power to face this
Speaker 1: vast army that, is attacking us and we don't know.
Speaker 1: What to do we don't have, what it takes and
Speaker 1: we don't know. What to do is that you today?
Speaker 1: IN adult season i don't have? What it takes is
Speaker 1: too strong, For, ME now god i don't have. What
Speaker 1: it takes you have been saying. THAT this week i.
Speaker 1: KNOW you have a lady told, MY mom yesterday I

Speaker 1: It too because i've been, holding Too tight and i've been,
Speaker 1: traveling TO tomorrow and i only can come TO the
Speaker 1: conclusion i don't have. What it takes and this is
Speaker 1: the worst. PART of all i don't know. What to
Speaker 1: do we don't have. What it takes we don't know.
Speaker 1: What to do we did not come to church because
Speaker 1: we have. It all together we did not come to
Speaker 1: church because we. Have all knowledge we did not come
Speaker 1: to church. Because we're omniscient we Did not praise god
Speaker 1: because we. Have no problems we Are not praising god
Speaker 1: because the truth. Always feels true we are not singing
Speaker 1: because we always intellectually make sense out of the. Words
Speaker 1: we sing we Are not worshiping god because we know
Speaker 1: why everything is happening. In our life that Is not why.
