And I like to start with something funny. 32 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 3: And I heard about this cat and mouse that died 33 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 3: on the same day and went to heaven. After a 34 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 3: few weeks, Peter saw the mouse and asked him how 35 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 3: he liked it. He said, Oh, it's great, but it's 36 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 3: so big. I would love to get some roller skates. 37 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 3: Peter said, no problem, got him some roller skates. Few 38 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 3: weeks later, Peter saw the cat and ask him how 39 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 3: he liked it. He said, Oh, it's fantastic. And just 40 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 3: when I thought it couldn't get any better, I discovered 41 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 3: the meals on wheels. Hold up your Bible, say it 42 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 3: like you mean it. This is my Bible. I am 43 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 3: what it says, I am I have what it says 44 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 3: I have. I can do what it says I can do. 45 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 3: Today I will be taught the word of God. I 46 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 3: boldly confess. My mind is alert, my heart is receptive. 47 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 3: I will never be the same. In Jesus' name, God 48 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 3: bless you. I want to talk to you today about 49 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 3: dropped but not forgotten. We all go through situations where 50 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 3: life is not fair. I met a man last week. 51 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 3: He had just been laid off after twenty five years 52 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 3: with the same company. He felt betrayed, alone, forgotten, like 53 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 3: he'd been dropped. A friend of mine, his father was 54 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 3: killed in an accident when he was two years old. 55 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 3: All through school, used to think, why does everybody else 56 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 3: have a dad but I don't. There was an emptiness 57 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 3: on the inside, dropped as a little boy. Sometimes other 58 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 3: people's poor choices have a negative effect on us. Maybe 59 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 3: you were raised in an unhealthy environment. Now you're still 60 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 3: struggling with the same addictions, same depression, same anger. It 61 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 3: keeps getting passed down. Some people have been mistreated, taken 62 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 3: advantage of. Now they have to deal with guilt, shame, 63 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 3: feeling like they don't measure up. It wasn't even their fault. 64 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:38,839 Speaker 3: Somebody else dropped them. I've learned you can't live very 65 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 3: long without being dropped. Dropped by an illness, drop by divorce, 66 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 3: drop by a friend that turns on you. It's easy 67 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 3: to get discouraged and think, man, this is my lot 68 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 3: in life. It's never going to change. You may have 69 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 3: been dropped, but the good news is God knows how 70 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 3: to pick you back up. David said, God lifted me 71 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 3: out of the pit and set my feet up on 72 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 3: a rock. David had been dropped by rejection, dropped by 73 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 3: people coming against him, drop by his own mistakes and failures. 74 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 3: But God said, in effect, David, don't worry. That drop 75 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 3: is not the end. That bad break, that person that 76 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 3: hurts you, that addiction, that sickness is not the end 77 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 3: of your story. You may have been dropped, but you 78 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 3: need to get ready. God is about to lift you. 79 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 3: He's about to set you on a higher place. He's 80 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 3: going to take you where you could not go on 81 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 3: your own, to a new level with new opportunities, new friendships, 82 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 3: new joy, new health, new fulfillment. You're not going to 83 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 3: come out the same way. The scripture talks about how 84 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 3: God will pay us back double for the unfair things 85 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,839 Speaker 3: that have happened. When you go through a disappointment, when 86 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 3: you get dropped, don't get bitter, don't get discouraged. Get 87 00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 3: ready for double, Get ready for increase, Ready for favor, 88 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,839 Speaker 3: Get ready for new levels. Friends. God has not forgotten 89 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:09,679 Speaker 3: about you. He has seen every tear you've shed, every hurt, 90 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 3: every lonely night, every person that's done you wrong. God 91 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 3: is a god of justice. He told the Israelites when 92 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 3: they were in slavery, being mistreated taking advantage of I 93 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 3: am coming down to deliver you. He was saying, I'm 94 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 3: coming down to pick you back up. I'm coming down 95 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 3: to bring justice. Notice what causes God to get off 96 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 3: the throne. What causes the creator of the universe to 97 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,719 Speaker 3: stop what he's doing and take action. It's when he 98 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:45,280 Speaker 3: sees you being mistreated. When God sees that injustice, he 99 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 3: doesn't sit back and say, well, too bad. No, he says, 100 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 3: that's my son, that's my daughter, my most prized possession. 101 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 3: They've been dropped. Now I got to get up and 102 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 3: do something about it. When God goes to work, all 103 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 3: the forces of darkness cannot stop him. People can't stop him. 104 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 3: Bad breaks can't stop him. Sickness can't stop him. God 105 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 3: will make your wrongs right. He'll pay you back for 106 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 3: the trouble. He'll get you to where you're supposed to be. 107 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 3: But the truth is, we all get dropped in life, 108 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 3: and it's easy to feel alone, forgotten, like you don't matter. 109 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 3: But don't believe those lies. God said in Isaiah, I 110 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 3: will not forget you. I have carved you into the 111 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 3: palm of my hand. Every time God opens his hand, 112 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 3: he sees your name. He's reminded of you. You may 113 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 3: have had some bad breaks, some closed doors, some people 114 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 3: come against you, but God has not forgotten about your dreams. 115 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 3: He has not forgotten about the promises that He's given you. 116 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 3: He didn't forget about that baby you want to have, 117 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 3: that husband or wife you've been praying about, that wholeness, 118 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 3: that healing, that freedom that you need stay in faith. 119 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 3: Life happens to all of us. You may get dropped, 120 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 3: but remember it's only temporary. God sees it. He's not 121 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 3: only going to lift you back up, but he's going 122 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 3: to set you on a higher place. You're going to 123 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 3: come out better off than you were before. This is 124 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 3: what happened to a young man in the scripture named 125 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 3: maphibis Chef. He was the grandson of King Saul and 126 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 3: the son of Jonathan. He was born into royalty, destined 127 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 3: to one day take the throne. His future was very bright, 128 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 3: and as a child, he was being raised by loving nurses, 129 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 3: people that treated him with great kindness made sure to 130 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 3: meet his every need. They knew they were dealing with 131 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 3: the future king. But when he was five years old, 132 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 3: his father and his grandfather, King Saul, were both killed 133 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 3: in a battle. News messengers rushed to maphibis Chef's house 134 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 3: to tell them the terrible news and to inform them 135 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 3: that the army was on their way to try to 136 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 3: wipe out all of King Saul's relatives. A nurse picked 137 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 3: up little mamphibis Chef in a great panic, took off 138 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 3: running out of the house as fast as she could. 139 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 3: She was trying to save his life. She had good 140 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 3: intentions trying to help the young boy, but on the 141 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 3: way down the stairs, she tripped and dropped maphibis Chef. 142 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 3: Both of his legs were broken. He became crippled and 143 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 3: could never walk again. Here maphibis Chef had not done 144 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 3: anything wrong. Wasn't his fault. Yet he's having to pay 145 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 3: the price for somebody else's mistake. Doesn't seem fair. Sometimes 146 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 3: in life, well meaning people can drop you. They didn't 147 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 3: mean to hurt you. They made a mistake and said 148 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,679 Speaker 3: some things that they shouldn't have, or they worked all 149 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 3: the time struggling to make ends meet. They weren't there 150 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 3: when you really needed them. Perhaps they had bad habits 151 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 3: addictions passed down to them. Now they're passing them on 152 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 3: down to you. They weren't bad people. They had our 153 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 3: best interest at heart. But like this nurse, they dropped us. 154 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 3: We can become crippled with low self esteem, crippled with addictions, 155 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 3: crippled with depression. Even though my fibis Chef was the 156 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 3: grandson of the king, even though he had royalty in 157 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 3: his blood, he ended up living in a place called 158 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 3: Lodo Bar that was one of the poorest, most run 159 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,839 Speaker 3: down cities of that day. Year after year went by. 160 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 3: I'm sure he thought nobody remembers me. I used to 161 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 3: be somebody important, somebody that was respected. I used to 162 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 3: be excited about my future. I had big dreams. But 163 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 3: look at me. Now I'm a crippled I can't even walk. 164 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 3: I'm living in the slums, nobody cares about me. I 165 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 3: don't have any friends, and it wasn't even my fault. 166 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 3: Somebody else dropped me. He felt a love forgotten, like 167 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 3: it would never change. But here's the beauty. Nothing goes 168 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 3: unnoticed with our God. God saw his father killed and 169 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,839 Speaker 3: taken away at a young age. God saw the well 170 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 3: meaning nurse drop him. God saw his once normal legs 171 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 3: that could run and jump and play instantly becoming crippled. 172 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 3: God saw the despair, the poverty, the lack that he 173 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 3: was living in. God didn't say, well, my Phibis chef, 174 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 3: you sure got some bad breaks. You need to find 175 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,199 Speaker 3: you a more surefooted nurse next time. She really missed 176 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 3: your life. Up now, God said, my Phibish chef, I 177 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 3: have not forgotten about you. I've got you carved into 178 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 3: the palm of my hand. You're always on my mind. Yes, 179 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 3: you may have been dropped, but that bad break is 180 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 3: not the end. I am a god of justice. I 181 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 3: am going to pay you back for what has happened. 182 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 3: One day, King David was on the throne of Israel, 183 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 3: sitting in the palace my ending his own business, when 184 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, he felt this desire to be 185 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 3: good to some of Saul's relatives. Now this is unusual 186 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 3: because Saul was the one that tried to kill David. 187 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 3: He was the one that chased David through the wilderness 188 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 3: and made his life miserable. Yet David said in Second 189 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 3: Samuel nine, is there anyone left from the house of 190 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 3: Saul that I might show kindness to? Why would David 191 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 3: want to be kind of one of his enemies? That 192 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 3: was God whispering in David's ear, giving him a desire 193 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 3: to be good to someone that had been dropped. God 194 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 3: can make things happen that you could never make happen 195 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 3: on your own. You may say, Joe, I'm stuck. I've 196 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 3: had these bad breaks. I'll never accomplish my dreams, never 197 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 3: get out of this mess, never be fulfilled. No, you 198 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 3: need to get ready. Your time is coming. God is 199 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:01,559 Speaker 3: about to whisper in somebody's ear to be good to you. 200 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 3: You didn't deserve it, you couldn't earn it. But for 201 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 3: no reason, somebody gives you a good break. Somebody offers 202 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 3: you the job, somebody gives you the contract. Somebody steps 203 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,319 Speaker 3: up and solves the problem for you. Don't get discouraged. 204 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 3: Justice is coming. Restoration is coming. New beginnings are on 205 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 3: their way. When David asked if any of Saul's relatives 206 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 3: were still alive, one of his assistants said, we've searched 207 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 3: and searched. There's only one grandson left. It's the son 208 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 3: of Jonathan. His name is Maphibis Chef. But he's crippled. 209 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 3: He can't even walk. David, no use wasting your time 210 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 3: with him. He's never going to amount to anything. They 211 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 3: tried to talk David out of it. David said, no, 212 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 3: you go find him right now and bring him to 213 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:57,559 Speaker 3: the palace. Well, Maphibis Chef was living in hiding in exile, 214 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 3: hoping that nobody knew that he was related to King Saul. 215 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 3: After all, Sauw had not treated David right. Imagine what 216 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 3: the people thought when they saw these officials from the 217 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 3: palace wearing their royal uniforms, show up in Loado Bar 218 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 3: and start searching through the slums for this crippled man 219 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 3: named Maphibis Chef. The whole city was stirring, buzzing with excitement. 220 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 3: Word finally reached Maphibis Chef that people were there from 221 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 3: the palace. He asked, what in the world are they 222 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:35,199 Speaker 3: doing here in Lodobar of all places. They said, Maphibis Chef, 223 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:40,080 Speaker 3: they're looking for you. His heart skipped a beat. He thought, 224 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 3: oh man, my luck is run out. They finally found me. 225 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 3: They're gonna get rid of me. The officials came bursting in, said, Ma, 226 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 3: Phibis Chef, get up and come with us. You're being 227 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:55,559 Speaker 3: summoned by the king. The problem is, Maphibis Chef couldn't walk. 228 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 3: They had to carry him to the palace. They traveled 229 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 3: out after hour, finally arrived and told King David that 230 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,439 Speaker 3: he was there. David went out to meet Maphibis Chef. 231 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 3: He was expecting to see someone that looked like King Saul, 232 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 3: his grandfather. Saul stood head and shoulders above the rest. 233 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 3: Saul looked like a king. He had a presence that 234 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 3: commanded respect. Saul walked like he was royalty. Here's his grandson. 235 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 3: Now David is expecting some kind of resemblance. But when 236 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 3: David opens the door and sees Maphibius Chef on the ground, frail, emaciated, legs, 237 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 3: shriveled up, hair not combed, closed, dirty, David said to 238 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 3: his assistant, are you sure this is the grandson of 239 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 3: the king? Are you sure this man Is Royalty. They said, yes, Sir, 240 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 3: we are certain. David looks at him, says Mamphibis Chef, 241 00:14:56,240 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 3: what happened to you? Maphibas Chef wouldn't look at the David. 242 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 3: He was too insecure, too afraid, too embarrassed. He said, 243 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 3: King David. When I was five years old and my 244 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 3: father and grandfather were killed, somebody dropped me and my 245 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 3: life has never been the same. That could have been 246 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 3: the end of the story. David thought, well, too bad 247 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 3: for you. You should have seen how your grandfather treated me. 248 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 3: I don't feel sorry for you one bit. You're getting 249 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 3: what your family deserved. Maphibus Chef is there on the ground, afraid, trimly, 250 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 3: thinking that it's the end. David smiles and says Matpibis Chef, 251 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 3: don't worry. I'm not going to harm you. I'm going 252 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 3: to be good to you from now on. You're not 253 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 3: going to live in Lodobar. You're going to live in 254 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 3: the palace with me. I'm going to give you all 255 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 3: the land that belonged to your grandfather, King Saul. You're 256 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 3: not going to go out and have to work it 257 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 3: and farm the land. I'm going to give you a 258 00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:00,120 Speaker 3: full staff to farm the land for you and give 259 00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 3: you the prophets. They'll do all the work and you'll 260 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 3: reap all the benefits. Last thing, Malphibis Chef. Every night 261 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 3: you will always sit at my table and have dinner 262 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 3: with me, not with my saff not with my military leaders. 263 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 3: Now you have a permanent seat at the King's table. 264 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 3: Maybe today, like Malphibis Chef, you feel like you've been dropped, 265 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 3: had a bad break, a loss, weren't treated right. It'd 266 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 3: be easy to settle there, be discouraged. Not expect anything good, 267 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 3: nor you need to get ready. You're about to be 268 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 3: summoned to the palace. God is about to pay you back. 269 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 3: Not just what should have been yours. God is going 270 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 3: to give you what belonged to your forefathers. It's going 271 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 3: to be far and beyond favor. You didn't have to 272 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 3: work for it. It's just the goodness of God paying 273 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 3: you back, bringing justice. And you may not see how 274 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 3: it can happen. But God has the right people he 275 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 3: can speak to about you. He's softening the right hearts. 276 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 3: God's going to pay you back for an unfair childhood, 277 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 3: pay you back for the person that did you wrong, 278 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,879 Speaker 3: Pay you back for that baby you couldn't have. Don't 279 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 3: sit around in self pity. There's a seat at the 280 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 3: King's table waiting for you. God has already prepared it. 281 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 3: It has your name on it. It's a seat of favor, 282 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 3: a seat of healing, a seat of restoration, a seat 283 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:31,640 Speaker 3: of increase. Friends, you have royal blood in your veins. 284 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 3: The Most High God breathed his life into you. He 285 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:40,159 Speaker 3: has destined you to live in the palace. That means 286 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 3: a place of blessing, a place of wholeness, a place 287 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:48,199 Speaker 3: of honor, a place of victory. Now, don't settle for 288 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 3: lodo bar. Don't get comfortable surviving, enduring barely getting by Well, Joel, 289 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 3: I've had a lot of bad breaks. My life hasn't 290 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 3: turned out the way I thought. That may be true, 291 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 3: but that didn't change who you are. You're still royalty. 292 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 3: You still have that crown of favor, you still have 293 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 3: the DNA of Almighty God. Get this down in your spirit. 294 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,639 Speaker 3: It's payback time. People may have tried to push you down, 295 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 3: but God's about to push you back up. Circumstances may 296 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,719 Speaker 3: have dropped you, but God is called the glory and 297 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,400 Speaker 3: the lifter of our head. There's about to be some lifting, 298 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 3: some things that you could not make happen the favor 299 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 3: of God opening up new doors, causing people to be 300 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 3: good to you, paying you back for that injustice. What's 301 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:42,639 Speaker 3: interesting is Maphibishchev never did get healed. He continued to 302 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 3: be a cripple the rest of his life. And it 303 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,680 Speaker 3: could have seemed like this story doesn't have a good ending. 304 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 3: But I've learned that if God doesn't remove the difficulty, 305 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,880 Speaker 3: if he doesn't totally turn it around, God will make 306 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 3: it up to you. You may have lost a loved one. 307 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 3: You can't bring that person back, but God can make 308 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 3: the rest of your life so rewarding, so fulfilling, that 309 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 3: it will help take away that pain. Or perhaps somebody 310 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:15,119 Speaker 3: walked out of a relationship, broke your heart, did you wrong. 311 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,879 Speaker 3: God can bring somebody new into your life that is 312 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 3: so loving, so kind, so good looking, so well off. 313 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 3: You don't even miss that old goat that left you. 314 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 3: I mean that person that left you. God knows how 315 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 3: to pay you back. The Phibish chef never walked again, 316 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 3: but sitting at the King's table every night, having people 317 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 3: wait on him, bring his food, farm his land, give 318 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 3: him the prophets. For some reason, I don't think he 319 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 3: ever complained. All he could say was, Lord, thank you 320 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 3: for remembering me, Thank you for your favor, thank you 321 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 3: for your mercy. When God overwhelms you with his goodness, 322 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 3: when he brings you out with double you won't complain 323 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,719 Speaker 3: about who hurts you and what didn't work out and 324 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 3: how unfair it was. You'll be so amazed that God 325 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 3: remembered you and promoted you and had people to carry you. 326 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 3: Would you couldn't go on your own like Maphibi chef, 327 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 3: all you'll be able to do is thank God for 328 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 3: his goodness in your life. My sister Lisa, her husband Kevin. 329 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,199 Speaker 3: They tried for many years to have a baby with 330 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 3: no success, and Lisa went through all the fertility treatments 331 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 3: and had a couple surgeries even but still no baby. Finally, 332 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 3: the doctors told her that she would never be able 333 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 3: to have a child. Now, other people have had that 334 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:40,200 Speaker 3: same negative report, but against all odds, they've had a baby. Anyway, 335 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 3: we've all seen God make a way where there was 336 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 3: no way, But for Lisa and Kevin it didn't happen. 337 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:52,400 Speaker 3: Lisa could have felt like she had been dropped infertility. 338 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:56,160 Speaker 3: But God is a god of justice, like Mamphibi chef. 339 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 3: If it doesn't turn out your way, God will make 340 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 3: it up to you. One day, out of the blue, 341 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 3: Lisa received a phone call from a lady we know 342 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 3: in another state that runs a ministry that helps teenage girls. 343 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 3: This lady said, Lisa and Kevin, I've got a young 344 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 3: lady about to give birth to twins. Something told me 345 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 3: that I should call you to see if you would 346 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 3: be interested in adopting these babies. When Lisa and Kevin 347 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:28,440 Speaker 3: heard that, something leaped on the inside, they knew those 348 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 3: babies were supposed to be theirs. They ended up adopting them. 349 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 3: A few years later adopted a baby boy. Today they 350 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 3: have three amazing teenage children, as happy as can be. 351 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 3: Lisa said, here's how good God is. I have three 352 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 3: children and I never had to get pregnant one time. 353 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 3: God will make it up to you. Maphibus Cheff was 354 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 3: summoned to the palace, but he couldn't get there on 355 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 3: his own. He had to be carried to the palace. 356 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 3: Each night at dinner he could get to his seat 357 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,679 Speaker 3: by himself. He had to be carried to his seat. 358 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 3: You may think Joel, I'm never going to accomplish my dreams. 359 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 3: I'm crippled. I've got this sickness, this addiction, this depression 360 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 3: that I'm dealing with. No, when you can't get there 361 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 3: on your own, God will always have somebody there to 362 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:23,880 Speaker 3: carry you. You're not alone, you're not forgotten. God has 363 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 3: you in the palm of his hand. And God is 364 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 3: not looking down at you because you're still crippled, so 365 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 3: to speak. You're still struggling with some issues. God saw 366 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 3: the times you've been dropped. You didn't go down by yourself, 367 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 3: and you're not going to come up by yourself. God 368 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 3: has already lined up the right people to carry you, 369 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,160 Speaker 3: to encourage you, to help you do what you could 370 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 3: not do on your own. When Jesus was carrying the 371 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:55,639 Speaker 3: cross on his way to be crucified, he was so weak, 372 00:22:56,200 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 3: so exhausted. He fell down under the weight of the cross. 373 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,480 Speaker 3: He couldn't carry it anymore. There was a man named 374 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 3: Simon that just so happened to be there. He picked 375 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 3: up the cross and carried it the rest of the 376 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,959 Speaker 3: way for Jesus. The point is you don't have to 377 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 3: be strong all of the time. Even Jesus fell down 378 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,919 Speaker 3: under the weight of the cross. The good news is 379 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 3: there will always be a Simon there for you, somebody 380 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 3: to help you, somebody to encourage you, somebody to get 381 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 3: you to where you're supposed to be. On the cross, 382 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:35,679 Speaker 3: even Jesus felt alone, forgotten. He was so stressed that 383 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 3: he swept great drops of blood. At one point he 384 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 3: cried out, my God, why have you forsaken me? He 385 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 3: was saying, God, I've been dropped. It looked like the end, 386 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 3: but the enemy never has the final say God does. 387 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 3: Three days later, Jesus was sitting at the King's table, 388 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 3: the victor, not the Victimy friends, God is a god 389 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 3: of justice. When you don't have the strength to move 390 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 3: forward on your own, don't worry. God will have angels 391 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 3: to carry you. God is not going to let you 392 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 3: stay in Lodobar. He's going to keep working, moving, restoring, 393 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 3: speaking to the right people until he gets you to 394 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 3: your seat at the King's table. Dinner is not complete 395 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 3: without you there. You may have been dropped, had bad breaks, 396 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 3: you feel broken, crippled, but today you're being summoned to 397 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 3: the table. We need your presence, we need your gifts, 398 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 3: we need your smile, your joy, your laughter, not pushed down, 399 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 3: not half hearted. No, this is a new day, Isaiah said, 400 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:50,679 Speaker 3: God will give you the oil of gladness instead of mourning, 401 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,399 Speaker 3: a crown of beauty instead of ashes, a garment of 402 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 3: praise instead of a spirit of heaviness. There's too much 403 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 3: heaviness in our world. People are letting circumstances and the 404 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 3: stress of life pushed them down. I believe today as 405 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 3: God is breathing new hope into your heart. The gladness 406 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 3: is coming and the sadness is leaving. The heaviness is going, 407 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 3: and joy is on its way. Your life is going 408 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 3: to be filled with a new laughter. The scripture calls 409 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 3: it joy unspeakable, full of glory. Years ago, there was 410 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 3: a young man in South Korea that was dying from tuberculosis. 411 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 3: One lung had already collapsed. As he lay on his 412 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 3: bed at home waiting to die, he was in so 413 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:40,680 Speaker 3: much pain that he started calling out to his different gods. 414 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 3: One by one, he cried out to this God, please 415 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,919 Speaker 3: come and help me. No answer. He called out to 416 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,159 Speaker 3: another God, please want you help me. Still not an answer, 417 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:56,679 Speaker 3: again and again and again. Finally, in desperation, he said, 418 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:01,160 Speaker 3: if there's any God up there anywhere. I don't ask 419 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 3: you to heal me. I just ask you to show 420 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:08,680 Speaker 3: me how to die. He was alone, felt forgotten, dropped 421 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 3: by life threatening illness, no fault of his own. You 422 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 3: wouldn't think that God would have anything to do with him. 423 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 3: He wasn't a believer. He doesn't come from our same faith. 424 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 3: But the scripture says, call on the name of the Lord, 425 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 3: and he will answer you. It doesn't say call if 426 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 3: you come to church, Call if you know the scripture, 427 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 3: Call if you live the right kind of life. No, 428 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:36,359 Speaker 3: anyone is welcome to call. There's a seat at the 429 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 3: King's table waiting for you. A few hours later, a 430 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:45,399 Speaker 3: young college student walking through his neighborhood felt what she 431 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:50,439 Speaker 3: described as an inexplainable love drawing her to that house. 432 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 3: She went over and knocked on the door. His mother answered. 433 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,399 Speaker 3: The young lady said, I know this is odd. You 434 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 3: don't know me, but is there anything that I can 435 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 3: pray with you about? His mother began to weep, told 436 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 3: how her son was on his death bed in the bedroom. 437 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 3: The young lady went back and prayed for her son, 438 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 3: and that day he gave his life to Christ. Long 439 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 3: story short, God healed him. He went on to become 440 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 3: doctor David Jungi Cho, the pastor of the largest church 441 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 3: in the world there in South Korea. Friends, God has 442 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 3: not forgotten about you. You may be dealing with an illness, 443 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,959 Speaker 3: a loss, a bad break. You feel like life has 444 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 3: dropped you. You need to get ready. God is about 445 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 3: to lift you back up, not bring you out the same. 446 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 3: He's going to set you on a higher place, bring 447 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 3: you out better off than you were before. It's payback time. 448 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 3: God is about to make some things up to you. 449 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 3: He's already spoken to the right people to come find 450 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 3: you with healing, with encouragement, with blessing. Like Maphibas Chef, 451 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 3: I believe in declare, you'll come in into the palace, 452 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 3: the place of heath, the place of blessing, the place 453 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 3: of abundance.
