In John chapter six, 20 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 1: it's a familiar Bible story, and the great multitudes were 21 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 1: following Jesus. They went into a desert place and there 22 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: was no food, and then we pick up the story 23 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 1: in verse five after they had been for many hours 24 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: and hours without. 25 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 2: Food in the sun. 26 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: And the scripture said, then Jesus lifted up his eyes, and, 27 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: seeing a great multitude coming toward him, he said to Philip, 28 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: where shall we buy bread. 29 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 2: That these may eat? 30 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: But this he said to test him, for he himself 31 00:01:56,400 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: knew what he would do. I've read this story a lot. 32 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: I've preached on this story through the years, many many, 33 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: many times from different angles. I have never noticed this verse. 34 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: I don't know how I missed it. But he did 35 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: this to test him. Watch everybody read the next few words, 36 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: for he himself knew what he would do. He turned 37 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:34,399 Speaker 1: to his disciples, and he gave them a challenge. He's 38 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: still giving his disciples challenges. He's still allowing us to 39 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: go through things with no explanation, no way to know 40 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 1: how to do what we need to do to get 41 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 1: through the challenge. And he said, what have you got? 42 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: Feed them? And one of the disciples spoke up and said, 43 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 1: we have two hundred any worth, or another way of 44 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: saying that. In their economy was two hundred days of wages. 45 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 2: We have just if we had it. They didn't have it. 46 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: He said, if we had two hundred days of wages, 47 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: we could only give a few crumbs to each person. 48 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: Five thousand men plus women and children, easily fifteen thousand people, 49 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: no convenience store, no grocery stores, nothing, in the middle 50 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: of the desert. 51 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 2: And he did this, He asked this. 52 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: He let them go through the challenge to prove them, 53 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: to test them, for he himself knew what he would do. 54 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: The Bible said that He knows everything, He controls everything. 55 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: By him, all things consists. He was in the world, 56 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: and the world was made by him. One scripture says, 57 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: in other words, before time, there was God, before angels. 58 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 1: There was God before creation. There was God before space 59 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: and galaxies. There was God. And he spoke and said, 60 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,599 Speaker 1: let there be And there was this God who could 61 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: not die, figured out a way to die and taste death. 62 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: This God, who could not be tempted, figured out a 63 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: way he could be tempted, yet without sin. This God, 64 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 1: who had no flesh, who had no blood, He. 65 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 2: Was a spirit. God is a spirit. 66 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:48,039 Speaker 1: He had no bones, figured out a way that he 67 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: could come down to earth and take on human flesh 68 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:57,600 Speaker 1: and manifest God to a lost and needy and hungry 69 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 1: world without countrare. The scripture says, Great is the mystery 70 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 1: of God manifest in flesh as a man. 71 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 2: He was. 72 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: He was here to show us the Father. He that 73 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: has seen me, has seen the Father that dwelleth in me. 74 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: Jesus said, so, now there's five thousand plus men and women, 75 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: a total of certainly easily fifteen thousand. And he challenged them, 76 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 1: and before they ever got in the challenge, before they 77 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: ever got in the need, he knew what he would do. 78 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 1: And I'm preaching today. He always knows what he's doing. 79 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: He always knows what he's doing. He's never nervous, he's 80 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: never bringing his hands, he's never caught by surprise. When 81 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 1: anything happens, any challenge, any need, he knows what he's 82 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 1: going to do about it, with it, through it, in it, 83 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: and after it. He always knows. Watch this, Matthew twelve 84 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: twenty five. He knew their thoughts. He was casting out devils, 85 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: and he knew their thoughts, and he knew they were thinking. 86 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 2: Oh, he cast out. 87 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: Devils by be ls above the god of the flies. 88 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 1: But he knew what they were thinking Luke six and eight. 89 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: But he knew their thoughts and said it to the 90 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: man with the withered hands stretched forth your hand, just 91 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: to prove to them I have the power on the sabbath. 92 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: You're worried about me healing somebody on the sabbath. And 93 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 1: he knew their thoughts, the schemes of people against you. 94 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 2: God's not unaware of it. 95 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: He knows our thoughts. He knows what we're thinking. He 96 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: knows everything. And then in the Book of John, chapter two, 97 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: it talks about he knew all men and he knew, 98 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: he knew what was in them, what a powerful Verse 99 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: John five and verse six at the pool of Bethesda, 100 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,159 Speaker 1: the scripture said, he knew that the man had been 101 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: there a long time, thirty eight years. 102 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 2: He knew it. 103 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: He knows where you are. He knows who you are. 104 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: He's thinking about you. There's nothing that you're challenged with today, 105 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: whether it's a financial challenge or a family domestic situation, 106 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: or a health issue. He knows who you are. He 107 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: knows what you're going through. He knows where you are, 108 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 1: and he knows how long you've been going through it. 109 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 2: He knew, he knew. And then in. 110 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: John chapter six and verse sixty one, when Jesus knew 111 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: within himself his disciples murmur turned to somebody and say Oh, 112 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: that means he knows when you're complaining. He knows when 113 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: you're murmuring. And then in the same chapter John six 114 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,679 Speaker 1: sixty four, some of you believe not, for Jesus knew 115 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: from from the beginning who they were that believed not 116 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: and who would betray him. In John thirteen and one, 117 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: Jesus knew that his hour had come, that he shouldn't 118 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: depart out of the world. And then in John sixteen 119 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: and nineteen, Jesus knew that they were desiring to ask 120 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: him questions. 121 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 2: He knew he always knows. 122 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: There's some things you never want to hear Jesus say. 123 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: You never want to hear Jesus say. Matthew twenty five 124 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: and twelve. Verily, I say unto you. I know you not. 125 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: Let's pause a minute. He's actually going to say that 126 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,200 Speaker 1: to people at the judgment. 127 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 2: I know you not. 128 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: In Luke three and verse twenty seven, I know you 129 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 1: not depart from me, Workers of iniquity. 130 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 2: I never knew you. 131 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 1: And then Luke thirteen twenty seven, I know you not 132 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: depart from me, and Luke five and forty two, I 133 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: know you that you have not the love of God 134 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: in you. He knows if I have the love for 135 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: God and the love of God in my heart, I 136 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: can't fool him with being religious. 137 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 2: I can't fool him by playing church. 138 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: He knows if I have the love of God in 139 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 1: my heart. He knows when he sees us, if we 140 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: have a love for him, if we love to worship him, 141 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: if we spend time with him, if we talk with him. 142 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: You say, but, Pastor, I've made mistakes. That's all right. 143 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: He can deal with that. But he looks deeth inside 144 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 1: to see do you still love me? That's what he 145 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 1: asked the apostle Peter in John twenty one after he failed. 146 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 2: He said, do you love me? Do you love me? 147 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 2: Do you love me? 148 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 1: And finally Simon Peter said, you know, Lord, you know 149 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: all things. In John twenty one, he said, you know 150 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 1: I love you, and he said, you do love me, 151 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: And then he gave him his next instructions. In John 152 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: ten and verse fourteen, he said, I am the good shepherd, and. 153 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 2: I know my sheep. My sheep hear my voice Verse. 154 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: Twenty seven, and I know them John thirteen and eighteen. 155 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:28,199 Speaker 1: I speak not to you all. I know who I 156 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: have chosen. I know who is mine In the fourteenth 157 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 1: chapters verse seven and nine. 158 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 2: If you have known me, you should have known my father. 159 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: Because if you've seen him, you've seen If you've seen me, 160 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: you've seen him. In Mark thirteen, heaven and earth will 161 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: pass away, but my words shall not pass away. But 162 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 1: of the day and the hour, no man knoweth when 163 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: the son of man is coming. I'm telling you there's 164 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: some things that even Jesus said, I don't know. But 165 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: the Father knows. And when he tells me I'm coming 166 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:09,839 Speaker 1: back from my bride, he knows us. He knows our heart. 167 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: He knows if we love him or not. He knows 168 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: after a failure, if we've repented or not. 169 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 2: He knows if we turned away. 170 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: And he can trust us with an even greater assignment 171 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 1: after we failed, because he looks deep in the heart. 172 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: How many times do we say I just don't know 173 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: what to do. How many times do we wring our hands? 174 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: How many times do we worry ourselves sick trying to 175 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 1: figure out the problems. 176 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 2: But can I tell you God is never wringing his hands, 177 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 2: and he is never worried. He knows, he knew what 178 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 2: he would do. 179 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 1: And I know this is a simple sermon, But I 180 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: want to get some things settled. 181 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 2: Here today that whatever. 182 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: You're facing, whatever you're going through, I want you to 183 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: know God never gets nervous. 184 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 2: He's in control. Acts fifteen. 185 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 1: Said that none under God Acts fifteen and verse eight 186 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: known under God is all his works from the beginning 187 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: of creation, God, says Taylor. The translation from Taylor says, 188 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 1: God knows all the plans made concerning us from the beginning. 189 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:28,199 Speaker 2: It's not. 190 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 1: He's always known. It's not catching him by surprise. From 191 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,839 Speaker 1: the beginning of the world, he knew that he would 192 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 1: be the Lamb of God, slain before the foundation of 193 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: the earth. 194 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 2: He knew what he would do. 195 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 1: He knew when he created the angelic Host. He knew 196 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:58,679 Speaker 1: when he created Lucifer that he would fall. He knew 197 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:03,199 Speaker 1: that one third of the angels would be transformed into 198 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 1: demon spirits, and their whole nature would be after Lucifer. 199 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 2: And with him. 200 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 1: And he knew that one day he would have a 201 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 1: church and that his blood would be shed and we 202 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: would be the replacement of Lucifer. He knew that Lucifer 203 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 1: couldn't even live right in heaven, but there would be 204 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: a group of people on Sunday morning who would be 205 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:32,319 Speaker 1: in church because they loved the Lord Hallelujah, and they 206 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 1: are replacing Lucifer. Lucifer couldn't serve him in heaven. But 207 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: here we are in earth. We've never seen him. We've 208 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: never talked face to face with him, although he hears 209 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,959 Speaker 1: our prayers. We've not seen him face to face. But oh, 210 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: he saw him, and he still couldn't live right. And 211 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: it really bothers him that we stand here and sit 212 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 1: here this morning listening to his word with attentive hearts 213 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 1: and worship in our heart, saying God, I really do 214 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: love you enough to give you my life and my 215 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:14,840 Speaker 1: family and come and worship you. He knows, he knows, 216 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: he knows what you're going through. He always knew what 217 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: he would do. 218 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 2: Let's make it more personable. For a few moments. He 219 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 2: knew what he would do. Job. 220 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: His world is turned upside down in one day, inside out. 221 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 1: He loses his children, ten of them killed, ten funerals. 222 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 2: In one day. 223 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: He loses all of his wealth, all of his cattle, 224 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 1: all of his servants are taken captive by raiders and 225 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: they take it everything that he owns, and his barns 226 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 1: burned down, and all of his savings are gone, all 227 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: in the same day. 228 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 2: But God knew what he would do. 229 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 1: And he's standing there now with bulls all over his body. 230 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 1: Where is God? I can't find him? Where is he? 231 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 1: Why is this happening? Why are you so silent when 232 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: I need you to talk to me? Why don't you 233 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 1: heal me? Why don't you bless me anymore? Why don't 234 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: you help me anymore? And God is sitting back, and 235 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: there's a conclave taking place in heaven between Satan and 236 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: God and angels and demons, and they're having this thing 237 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: going on on what will he do? And angels are 238 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: watching and demons are watching. 239 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 2: And Joe doesn't know what is going on. 240 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: He didn't know what he would do, but God knew 241 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 1: what he would do. And God watched him as he 242 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 1: raised his hands and said, the Lord gives, the Lord 243 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 1: takes away. 244 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 2: Blessed be the name of a Lord. 245 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 1: And God watched him as he praised his way through 246 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 1: bankruptcy and bereavement and through balls and through affliction. As 247 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 1: he's sitting on a broken pottery and he's scraping the 248 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: sores on his body. And then comes his friends so 249 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: called and they sit in a circle and accuse him 250 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: night and day, saying you're a rotten sinner and this 251 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: is the judgment of God. And he's saying, I don't 252 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: know what's going on, and his wife says, curse God 253 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: and die and he seems like he's totally forgotten. 254 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 2: But up in heaven God knew what he would do. 255 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 1: Hello, I'm Jensen Franklin, and I want to welcome you 256 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 1: to Real America's Voice. There's something that's gonna happen. I 257 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: believe as you watch this program, lean in, listen, and 258 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:13,919 Speaker 1: let's see what God can do in your life. And 259 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 1: one day when I get to Heaven, I'm gonna find job. 260 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 2: I've got a little list, I really do. 261 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,919 Speaker 1: I'm gonna find job, and I'm gonna ask him was 262 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 1: it worth it? And I believe he's gonna say, hand 263 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 1: me the heavenly microphone, and he's gonna say, y'all be quiet, 264 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: quit shouting so much, calm down. I wanna ask a question, 265 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,119 Speaker 1: was it worth it for me to go through what 266 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: I went through? And there's gonna be billions of people 267 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 1: like those people in Syria, those Christians who've been murdered 268 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: by those who hate Christians in Syria there's gonna be 269 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 1: people who've been through trials and tribulations, and every one 270 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 1: of us will be there, and we're all gonna shout, yes, 271 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 1: it was worth it, because everybody needs the Book of Job. 272 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 1: At some point in your life. God looked at him 273 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: and he sees this man covered in balls. He sees 274 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 1: this man as he's grieving. He sees this man as 275 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 1: his children are being buried. He sees this man, but 276 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,880 Speaker 1: God knew what he would do. You see what you're 277 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 1: going through. But I see that you're gonna live another 278 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 1: one hundred and forty years after the trial. I see 279 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: that I'm going to bless you double everything you ever had. 280 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 1: I see that I'm gonna reward my people in ways 281 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: that eyes have not seen, in ears have not heard. 282 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 2: I know what I'm gonna. 283 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 1: Do about every attack and Satan brings against you and 284 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:49,200 Speaker 1: your family. 285 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 2: It has not got me wringing my hands. 286 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: I know what I'm gonna do about you now that 287 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: you have been through the heartbreak, now that you are 288 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,880 Speaker 1: addicted or messed up. I can handle all of it, 289 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 1: and I'll even use it to turn around and let 290 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 1: it be a blessing in a way that you couldn't 291 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:17,439 Speaker 1: even imagine. Clap your hands and shout Amen, Hallelujah, hallelujah. 292 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 2: I see Joe. He doesn't know, but God knew what 293 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 2: he was going to do. Thank you Joe for hanging 294 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 2: in there. Hallelujah. 295 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 1: Tell somebody God knows what he's gonna do about your situation, 296 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: and you need to do like Joe. You can curse 297 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:39,400 Speaker 1: God and die, or you can bless God and live. 298 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 1: Gone and bless God and live. Tay right in the 299 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 1: middle of your trial, take a praise break and thank 300 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 1: the Lord for his faithfulness. Thank the Lord that you 301 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,880 Speaker 1: don't know, but he knows what he's gonna do. And 302 00:19:52,960 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: in the end, what was meant for evil Joseph. 303 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 2: Joseph was in the will of God. 304 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: Oh, we don't like this when he was thrown into 305 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 1: the pit, because God had to get into Egypt, and 306 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: he would have never gone voluntarily. And we're even told 307 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 1: why because when you read the story of Rachel, she 308 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 1: had a son named Esau and a twin named Jacob. 309 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 1: Jacob would become the father of the twelve Tribes of Israel. 310 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 1: But Esau fell in love with a Canaanite woman that 311 00:20:51,080 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: worshiped other gods, and the mother said, if my second son, Jacob, 312 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 1: or the second born in the twin situation, if if 313 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 1: he marries a Canaanite woman, I'd rather be dead. 314 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 2: Have you ever read that. 315 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 1: That one that he married has so driven me crazy 316 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,919 Speaker 1: that if my other one marries a crazy woman like that, 317 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 1: worshiping devils. 318 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 2: I just can't handle it. Watch God. 319 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 1: So Joseph gets a dream from God. His brother's getting jealous. 320 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 1: They ripped the coat of many colors off. Favor was 321 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,880 Speaker 1: all over him, and they despised them. They dug a pit, 322 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 1: or one was already there, and they threw him in 323 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 1: the pit, sowed him to the Ishmaelites. 324 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 2: That's another thing I want to preach on right there. 325 00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 1: Ishmael Abraham committed adultery with Hagar and produced a son 326 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:11,159 Speaker 1: named Ishmael, and his descendants come along generations later. And 327 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: just when the dream is about to die, and the 328 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:18,160 Speaker 1: nation of Israel was not in existence, and certainly all 329 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 1: the boys would have married Canaanite women in the Nation 330 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 1: of Israel would have never been formed. But God knows 331 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 1: what he's doing, even with injustice thrown in a pit, 332 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: thrown in a prison for thirteen years for a crime 333 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: he did not commit. God knew what he would do 334 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: with every injustice, every attack. That's why when you get 335 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,919 Speaker 1: mad at flesh and blood, you're forfeiting your blessing. But 336 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,000 Speaker 1: if you'll say vengeance is mine, saith the Lord, he 337 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,919 Speaker 1: will repay, he'll bless you, and he'll take care of 338 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: your enemies too. 339 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 2: So so Joseph don't know what's going on. He's a 340 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 2: good guy. 341 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,679 Speaker 1: I mean, everywhere they put him, he just he rises 342 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 1: like cream to the top. They put him in the prison, 343 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 1: he's put over the whole prison. They put him in 344 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: Potterphar's house. He's put over Potterifard's hound. 345 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 2: He's just a good guy. 346 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 1: He doesn't have a clue what's going on. And finally 347 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 1: they raise he gets raised up. But what I'm trying 348 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 1: to preach to you is when they threw him in 349 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 1: the pit, God knew what he was doing. When they 350 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 1: brought false accusations and threw him into prison. God knew 351 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: what he was doing when he was forgotten by the 352 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 1: butler and the baker. God knew what he was doing 353 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,360 Speaker 1: when he lived in the land of Goshen. God knew 354 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 1: what he was doing now here's a little verse. Now 355 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:46,439 Speaker 1: tie all this together. 356 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 2: Don't let me lose you. 357 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 1: The Bible said that in Egypt, shepherds are an abomination. 358 00:23:54,200 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 1: To Egyptians, shepherds they could not stand. And Jacob when 359 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: he is brought you, remember Joseph goes and it gets 360 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: his whole family and brings his whole family. 361 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 2: And he made a. 362 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: Mistake because Joseph said. 363 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 2: Don't tell them your shepherds. Don't tell them your shepherds. 364 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:18,680 Speaker 1: But Jacob said, I'm a shepherd, and so the Egyptians 365 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 1: cut them off. 366 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 2: And Pharaoh still. 367 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,239 Speaker 1: Wanted to bless them, so he said, I tell you 368 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 1: what we don't y'all are an abomination. We don't like 369 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 1: you sheep people. We're beef cattle on all that. We 370 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 1: don't want the mixing, and we don't want our we 371 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 1: don't want our daughters marrying your daughters. So y'all stay 372 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 1: over there in the land of Goshen. And Pharaoh said, here, 373 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 1: give every one of you boys, your brothers, and your 374 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:49,400 Speaker 1: dad their own ranches. 375 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 2: Read the story. So now for the first time you've 376 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 2: got this gathering. 377 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: And they stay there, and they stay there, and another 378 00:24:59,320 --> 00:24:59,919 Speaker 1: pharaoh come. 379 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 2: God knew what he was. 380 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 1: Doing when they fell out of favor, and then they 381 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:08,680 Speaker 1: went into Egyptian bondage. And the more they and they married, 382 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: they married the girls that were in their group because 383 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 1: they didn't mix the two. The understand what I'm saying. 384 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 1: God was building the nation, and the Bible said that 385 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: when the second Pharaoh came and he was evil and 386 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 1: he was mean, the Bible said, the more they afflicted them, 387 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 1: the more they multiplied. Hielujah, because God said, I gotta 388 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 1: get me a nation called Israel. Because out of the 389 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 1: nation of Israel come the tribe of Judah. And out 390 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: of the tribe of the Judah will come to Messiah 391 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 1: named Jesus, that'll give me bones and flesh and blood 392 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 1: so I. 393 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 2: Can carry across. I'll come on, somebody. 394 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:53,679 Speaker 1: He's using everything Hell brings against you. The gates of 395 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:55,880 Speaker 1: Hell shall not prevail. 396 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 2: Against the Church, and you're the Church. 397 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,479 Speaker 1: Hello, I'm Jensen Franklin, and I want to welcome you 398 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 1: to Real America's Voice.

I well rejoice 416 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:16,639 Speaker 1: in it. 417 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:18,199 Speaker 2: It took me a long time to get there, but 418 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 2: I'm there. Hallelujah, Praise God. 419 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 1: Y'all were looking at me partly cloudy, how all the 420 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 1: way through this sermon that you come alive in the 421 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: name of Jesus, Helenlujah. 422 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 2: Abraham, you don't know what I'm doing. Let me preach 423 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 2: for more minutes. 424 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: But Abraham was one hundred and thirty three and his 425 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 1: boy was thirty three years old. Some say younger, but 426 00:27:55,320 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 1: it had to be in that area. Thirty three was 427 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: a young boy and he had to be strong and 428 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 1: mighty because he had to carry the wood all the 429 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: way up the mountain for three days on his back. 430 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 2: They didn't have steps. 431 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: Have you ever tried to climb a mountain, a real mountain, 432 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 1: And he had to climb the mountain with the wood 433 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 1: on his back. He's climbing up and when he gets 434 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 1: to Mount Mariah, he didn't even know where he was going, 435 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: but God said, I'll take you to a place that 436 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:35,680 Speaker 1: I will show you. 437 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 2: Just follow me. I don't know what i'm doing, just 438 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 2: follow me. I know what I'm doing, and I'm taking 439 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 2: you to Mariah. 440 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: And when he got on there, and the boy had 441 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 1: to lie down and submit to be tied, because he 442 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 1: could have. 443 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 2: Beat the old man up if he wanted to. 444 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 1: If he's strong enough to carry wood up a mountain, 445 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 1: he's strong enough to say to an elder, I'll just 446 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 1: put you over. And he lays down, and he willingly 447 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 1: lays down, and he doesn't know why the angel said 448 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 1: kill him, but he's raising the dagger. And we always 449 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 1: talk about poor old Abraham was crying, but. 450 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 2: I think the boy was crying too. 451 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 1: I think the kid was like, Lord, how mercy my daddy, what. 452 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 2: Are you doing? 453 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 1: He said, I see the knight and I see the wood, 454 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: but where's the sacrifice? 455 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 2: Son? 456 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 1: I don't know, but God knows what he's doing, and 457 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 1: I just gotta be willing to trust him all the way. 458 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 2: And if this is it, this is it. 459 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 1: But and all of a sudden, the angels set out 460 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 1: of the invisible world and scrabbed him by the wrists 461 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: and said, stop your hand. 462 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 2: God said, now I know. 463 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 1: That I can trust you. I'm telling you. God's putting 464 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: us through challenges all the time, and he's doing a 465 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 1: deep check up under the hood to see if we're 466 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 1: still loving, to see if we're still serving, to see 467 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 1: if we're still praising when tears are running down our face, 468 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: and when we don't know what to do and we're 469 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 1: wringing our hands and we're upset, and God saying you 470 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,479 Speaker 1: hadn't quite learned how to trust me. I'm gonna let 471 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 1: you keep walking until you say, if I live, it's Christ. 472 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 2: If I die, it's gain. Either way, My life is 473 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 2: in his hands. 474 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: Whoo, how deluja, everybody praise him? 475 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 2: Just another moment. I'm almost done. I want to finish 476 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 2: with this. 477 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 1: The same mountain, Mount Moriah, the same spot where he 478 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: raised the knife. A plague breaks out in Israel. Centuries later, 479 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 1: David the King numbered Israel. Satan tempted him to do it, 480 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 1: the Bible said, and he fell for it because God 481 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 1: doesn't want us trusting in numbers and stats. He wants 482 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 1: us trusting in him. And he numbered Israel as though 483 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 1: that would win the battles if he had the right numbers. 484 00:31:50,560 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 1: And so the plague hit. Seventy thousand Israelites dropped dead, 485 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 1: and David is so broken that he falls down and says, God, 486 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 1: kill me instead of them. And he's crying, and God says, 487 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 1: I've heard your cry. Interesting thing about David is he's 488 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 1: the first man in all the Bible to say I 489 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 1: love you, Lord. There's no one in the Bible before 490 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:23,719 Speaker 1: him that praised the Lord and actually said to the 491 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:28,040 Speaker 1: Lord God, I love you. And he was a man 492 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: after God's own heart. Now watch this, God said, go 493 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 1: to the threshing floor of Ornan. First chronicles are second 494 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 1: Samuel twenty four. 495 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 2: He said, go there and buy. 496 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 1: This piece of property and offer me a sacrifice. And 497 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: when the man saw him that owned the property. Everybody say, 498 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 1: the threshing floor of Ornan. You're not gonna believe this, 499 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 1: He said, I'll give it to you. I know who 500 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: you are, and you want to worship God. 501 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 2: Here take it. He said, I. 502 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: Can't take something that doesn't I can't receive something that 503 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 1: doesn't cost me something. I'm doing this for God and 504 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 1: it needs to cost me something. Wow, it matters what 505 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 1: we do with our resources. You could get it for free. 506 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:32,320 Speaker 1: But God says, I see that stuff, I see that 507 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 1: heart that says You're lord of even this in my life, 508 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 1: my money. And he said, I can't take something from 509 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 1: God that cost me nothing, or from you that cost 510 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 1: me nothing. If I'm offering it to God, he deserves 511 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 1: my sacrifice. And he builds an altar on the threshing 512 00:33:54,960 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 1: floor of Ornan, which is the exact spot that Solomon 513 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 1: his son would build the temple. 514 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 2: The ashes of David's. 515 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 1: Failure was up under the foundation of that temple. He 516 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:19,799 Speaker 1: didn't understand seventy thousand in all of this disaster. 517 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 2: But God knew what he would do. 518 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 1: There would be an arc of the Covenant and the 519 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 1: Holy of Holies, and many Bible scholars, I don't know 520 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 1: this but many Bible scholars, and they would know a 521 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,959 Speaker 1: whole lot more than the They believe that it's the 522 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 1: same spot where Abraham lifted the knife to offer Isaac, 523 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 1: and it's the same spot where Jesus climbed and they 524 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 1: with a cross on his back outside it. It definitely 525 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 1: is in the city of Jerusalem. It's definitely where the 526 00:34:56,719 --> 00:35:00,360 Speaker 1: temple was built. And it's very possible that the same 527 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 1: spot is where Jesus was crucified and died. All of 528 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:09,840 Speaker 1: these generations never talking to each other, never communicating, but 529 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: in the very spot God. 530 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:18,319 Speaker 2: Knew what he would do.
