What you 8 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:30,320 Speaker 1: do with the next few moments can affect the years 9 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 1: ahead of your life. Selene in listen to this message. 10 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,160 Speaker 1: I believe it's going to speak to you, and you're 11 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: going to encounter a God who loves you and cares 12 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:50,839 Speaker 1: about you this very moment. If you have your Bibles, 13 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 1: I want you to open them with me to the 14 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 1: Book of Deuteronomy, chapter eighteen. Deuteronomy chapter eighteen. And as 15 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 1: you know, this is the annual fast that whereupon it 16 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 1: begins today. It's an amazing thing that God has done 17 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 1: in our lifetime to awaken many, many, many people in 18 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: the Body of Christ in many many churches to fast 19 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: and pray early in the new year. 20 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 2: Seek first the Kingdom. 21 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,759 Speaker 1: Make sure that you shake yourself a little bit spiritually 22 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: in the new year, that you dare not just join 23 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 1: a fast because it's the tradition of our church. It'll 24 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 1: do you no good. I do this because I am 25 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:46,759 Speaker 1: desperate for God. I have done this now for thirty 26 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: plus years. And when we started, we started, Teresa. 27 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 2: And I with. 28 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: Nothing much of our own, but we knew to fast 29 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: and pray and to seek God. And as we sought him, 30 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 1: he would guide us and he would lead us. 31 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 3: This is my time not to work harder. 32 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 1: These twenty one days are me saying I am weak 33 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 1: and you are strong. Without you, I can do nothing. 34 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: And it's a powerful thing when you humble yourself in 35 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: fasting in prayer. You cannot humble yourself in prayer and 36 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: God not exalt you. 37 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 2: It is impossible. 38 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: You cannot humble yourself in fasting and seeking God with 39 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: all of your heart and God not exalt you. It 40 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: would be unbiblical for that to happen if you humble yourself. 41 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: In Psalms thirty five says we humbled ourselves with fasting, 42 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: So fasting is it's a manifestation of humility that says 43 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: I desperately need you. I dare not go into this 44 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 1: new year thinking my brillands, my talent, my gifting, my 45 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: career skills are enough. 46 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 3: I dare not do that. You can if you want to. 47 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: I'm terrified to try to do this without God. I 48 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: desperately need him. That's why I'm so desperate to do it. 49 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: And it is a powerful thing. When you begin to fast. 50 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: I want to challenge you to join us. If you've 51 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: never fasted, don't be intimidated, don't be afraid. If you're 52 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: an elder, or if you are physically challenged in some 53 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: areas and you're not able, you figure out your own 54 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: fast and what you're going to do, and God will 55 00:03:58,040 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: honor that. 56 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 2: We've got you covered. We've got you covered. 57 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: If you're going through treatments and all kinds of things 58 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: with medication, we've got you covered. You're part of this 59 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: church and we've got you covered. And if you're watching 60 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: or wherever you are, one of the things that I 61 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: want you to do is saturate yourself. And not only 62 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: are we going to be fasting, I think it's important 63 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 1: to have an accountability. 64 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 2: Partner on a fast. 65 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: In other words, go on and commit, go on and 66 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 1: say I'm going to do this and here's what I'm 67 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: going to do, and don't make up your mind later, 68 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 1: because your mind will tell you this is stupid. Forget it, 69 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 1: don't do it, and bel out right now. It makes 70 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: no difference. He tells me that. And I've done this 71 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: for over thirty years. I know what I'm talking about. 72 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: But there is a real battle going on in the 73 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 1: unseen world. When you're fasting and pray, there is a 74 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: real battle going on. You get God's attention, you get 75 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: Angel's attention, and you get demon's attention. It's very real 76 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: and it's very powerful. And you will go where you 77 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: would not go without fasting and prayer when you open 78 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 1: your life. 79 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 2: To this message. 80 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 1: And I have a pastor friend and we kind of 81 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: challenge each other and on a fast every year and 82 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: by that And the only reason we do that is 83 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: it just strengthens us to know somebody's doing what we're doing, 84 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 1: and so we're And I don't say this in any 85 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: way to boast. God knows my heart and motive. I 86 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 1: say it as motivation. I feel like, sometimes if you're 87 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 1: not careful, you'll make the fast about food. You'll make 88 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: the fast about yourself, your feelings, your emotions. I think 89 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: I feel I won't And you've got to get beyond that. 90 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 1: It's possible to fast and get and not receive because 91 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: you in it right, feel it, feel the hunger, get 92 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 1: in it. Quit worrying about food, Quit worrying about the 93 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: next meal, Quit worrying about. 94 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 2: All of that. 95 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 1: Put all of that aside and say, I, this is 96 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: not about me. It's not about food, what I can eat, 97 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 1: I can't eat. It's about you. I'm coming after you. 98 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 1: I'm desperate for you. I can't stand another year without you. 99 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: I need you in my life, I need you in 100 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 1: my family, I need you in my everything. I'm so 101 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: desperate for you. Now, that's got to be your heart 102 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 1: in this. It's got to be your heart. And if 103 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 1: you do that and it's okay, You're You're, You're, You're 104 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 1: gonna be okay if you fast. I remember, my sister 105 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: Jill told me the story during the fast. They've been 106 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,919 Speaker 1: here about as long as we have, her and her family, 107 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 1: and she's got a bunch of kids, her and her 108 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: husband Larry, and they've been here forever, and their kids 109 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: were smaller, and the culture of this church this time 110 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: of the years talking about fasting and prayer, and so 111 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: it was going. 112 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 2: Everybody was fast. 113 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: And praying, and so the kids, even one of the 114 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: one of the boys of my girl, my sister Jill, 115 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: she said her her son said, I'm going to fast. 116 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: My xbox is just a little kid, and and she 117 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: loved that. And so the little sister found a little 118 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: pressure about it. I think she was five years old. 119 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: His the little girl that Jill has had, and she said, 120 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,559 Speaker 1: came to her mother and she said, Mama, she said, 121 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm going to fast and and she said, well, 122 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: what are you gonna fast, baby, And she said, well, well, 123 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: she said, I'm going to fast. I tell you what 124 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: I'm going to fast. She said, I think I'm going 125 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: to ast my Barbie dolls. Because she had just got 126 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: some Barbie dolls for Christmas. And she said, I'm not 127 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: gonna play with them for twenty one days. And she 128 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: sat around for about twenty minutes and she came back. 129 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: She said, this is crazy. I'm playing with my baby dog. Now, 130 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: this is what you go through when you fast. You laugh, 131 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: but you won't be laughing six hours from now. You'll 132 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:23,559 Speaker 1: be wanting your bout Barbie dolls.

And Jill, you know, she had 134 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: I think four kids at the time, and she was 135 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 1: and she she was fixing the meal and she was fasting, 136 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: doing a total fast, and so she was fixing chicken 137 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: fingers and all the trimmings and she fixed it and 138 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 1: they ate and her little daughter spoke up after she 139 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: ate Nate Nate. Jill said it smelled so good, and 140 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: she said, she said, Mama, I know what I'm gonna do. 141 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna fast food now.

And she said, that's insane. There's no way 148 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: I'm doing that. No way. So she went off and 149 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:19,319 Speaker 1: came back about thirty minutes later and she said, Mom, 150 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: I know what I'm going to fast, dead serious.

It's very important that 174 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: you not get super spiritual walker like you're something special 175 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: because you're fasting. It actually ought to give you a 176 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: burden for people. And I'm going to preach in just 177 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: a minute. I'm not going to preach along. But one 178 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,199 Speaker 1: of the other things that I felt led to say 179 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 1: to you on this fast. I felt the need to 180 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: do the seven days because I want to feel the 181 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:28,200 Speaker 1: weightiness of it again, and you will certainly on the 182 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 1: twenty one day. It is the Daniel is a it's 183 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: a taxing. It's a long term thing that really wears 184 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 1: you down a little bit. And that's part of it. 185 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 1: I'm just being honest. There is nothing pleasant about it. 186 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: There's nothing enjoyable about fasting other than the great, great 187 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: presence of God that will come. I feel him here now, 188 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 1: I do. And it's not emotions either. He is drawn 189 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 1: to sacrifice. 190 00:11:59,160 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 2: That's it. 191 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 3: Now. 192 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: I want to challenge this church to do something that 193 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 1: I don't think we've ever said we were going to do. 194 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: Together with the twenty one day fast, I want you 195 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 1: to go back to your Bibles and for twenty one days, 196 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: if you will read nine chapters a day, just nine 197 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,079 Speaker 1: chapters a day, you can read the entire New Testament, 198 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 1: the entire New Testament in twenty one days. And so 199 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: I want every one of us to get on tracks 200 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: starting today and read nine chapters of the Bible to 201 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: take you if you read it slow and easy, and 202 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: get you a notepad or something and write down the 203 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 1: verses that really speak to you, and you will be 204 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: amazed your journey. You know, kind of journaling your fast, 205 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 1: and God will use those verses magnificently. He will give 206 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: you things and you won't may not even know why 207 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: that verse so speaks to you, but write it down 208 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: and keep up with that. Take your time, everybody, say 209 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: nine chapters a day and you'll read through the entire 210 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 1: New Testament. And I'm gonna hold you accountable. I'm your 211 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 1: accountable buddy. Okay, I'm gonna ask you turn. How many 212 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: of you will join me on the twenty one day 213 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 1: fast and read your Bible every day, nine chapters every day. 214 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 2: Let me see your hand. 215 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 1: This is powerful because when you saturate your spirit in 216 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,079 Speaker 1: the word of God. Remember what Jesus said the replacement 217 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: of food was man shall not live by bread alone, 218 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: but by every word. This is so critical to the fast, 219 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 1: every word that proceeds out of. 220 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 2: The mouth of God. 221 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: So every one of us raise your hands again. If 222 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,559 Speaker 1: you're gonna read, put your hand down a minute. Because 223 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: a lot of people say I'm gonna read all the 224 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: way through the Bible. You'll never read through the whole 225 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 1: Bible until you set a time a day and then 226 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: you get accountable to something. That's why this is so powerful. 227 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 1: If we do this, I know what's going to happen 228 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 1: in this congregation because when you read the Word, you're 229 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:10,559 Speaker 1: saturating your spirit person with the anointing. The word is cleansing. 230 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: The Word is anointing. The Word is revelatory. The Word 231 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: will speak, it will come alive, it will talk to 232 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: you about things you are asking God's help in you. 233 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: Watch what I tell you, But you got to read it. 234 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 2: And it's so. 235 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: The devil does not want you to read the Word 236 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: while you fast. He wants you to focus on food. 237 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: And that's stupid. That does you no good. So let's 238 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: do this. Are you all ready to do this? Are 239 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 1: you ready to do this? Deuteronomy eighteen. The priests, the Levites, 240 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 1: the tribe of Levi, shall have no part nor inheritance 241 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 1: with Israel, nor shall they eat the offerings of the 242 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: Lord made by fire in his portion. Therefore they shall 243 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,239 Speaker 1: have no inheritance among the brethren. The Lord is the inheritance. 244 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: The Lord is their inheritance, as he said to them 245 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: verse three. 246 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 2: And this shall be the priests do from the people. 247 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 1: This is what the people are to bring to the 248 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 1: High Priest when they bring their sacrifice. Sacrifice is a 249 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: major part. All we hear about is grace today, and 250 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: I believe I'm a grace preacher. 251 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 2: I believe in grace. But there is something. 252 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: That God says about sacrifice. I never outgrow it. I 253 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 1: never ever need to lose sacrifice in my walk with God. 254 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 2: And listen to what he says. 255 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: Tell the people to bring and offer a sacrifice, which 256 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: is a bull or a sheep, and they shall give 257 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: the priest the shoulder, the cheeks, and the stomach. I 258 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: want to preach today on fasting to unburden your soul. 259 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: Fasting to unburden your soul. Jesus Christ was our High 260 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 1: priest under the New Covenant, that's the Old Covenant and 261 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: the Old Covenant. When the families came once a year, 262 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: they brought a bull or a lamb, whatever they could afford, 263 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 1: and God gave specific instructions to let the lamb be sacrificed. 264 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: But I want you to take a portion of that lamb. 265 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 1: Take the shoulder, take the cheek, and take the take 266 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: the stomach, and give that to the priest as his inheritance. 267 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: That's what he will live off of and what he 268 00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: will have. And it's a strange test, and yet it 269 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:05,399 Speaker 1: speaks some profound truth about what can happen when we fast, 270 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: because Jesus is our high priest, and he's saying to us, 271 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 1: on this fast, I want. 272 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 2: You to bring me your shoulders. Shoulders speak of burdens. 273 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 1: I want you to bring me your cheek and I'll 274 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: explain what that represents. And I want you to bring 275 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 1: me your stomach. So the shoulder deals with the burdens 276 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 1: of life, the daily pressures, the worry, the fear. It's 277 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 1: what we carry the heaviness with. It's the heaviness of life, 278 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: the burdens of life, the things that are missing in 279 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 1: our life, and the questions and the hardships and the 280 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 1: trials and the tough seasons that we walk through. He says, 281 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 1: if you are coming to your high Priest, Jesus Christ, 282 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: which is a type of this text, bring me your burdens, 283 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 1: bring me your shoulders on this fast, bring me your heavy, 284 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 1: heavy situations.

And the attempt of 400 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: offense when it strikes, is to turn you in another direction, 401 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: in a direction of bitterness, in a direction of unforgiveness, 402 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: in a direction of filthiness of the spirit, where you 403 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: become an angry, bitter person.

You're getting more bitter yourself. The 411 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 1: only answer is to get somewhere with God and pray 412 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:54,360 Speaker 1: and read your Bible and be cleanse and be freed 413 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 1: from all of that, and say, I am not too proud, 414 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 1: Oh God, to say, turn me back in the right direction. 415 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 1: I was offended and I don't want to go down 416 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: that road. 417 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 3: I want to go. 418 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 1: More toward forgiveness.

I'm telling you today that there 510 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 1: is a powerful scripture that says in Psalms one O 511 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 1: six that He gave them their request, but sent them 512 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: leanness of soul. And what happens is we get so 513 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 1: into stuff. Don't hunger for a bigger house. Seek first 514 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 1: the kingdom, and He'll add everything to you that you need, 515 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 1: and many times even that you won't. 516 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 3: He is a good God. 517 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 1: He'll withhold no good thing from them who walk up rightly. 518 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,719 Speaker 1: But you have to have seasons and a lot of people, 519 00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: they get more, and they get more. 520 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 3: Throw that verse up, and he gave them their request. 521 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 3: This is what happens. 522 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 1: We get more, we get more, we get more, but 523 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: we don't hunger for him anymore. Our contentment is in things, 524 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: and it's temporal and it will not last. 525 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 2: And if you don't feed that spiritual. 526 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 1: Hunger with something that is spiritual, you'll try to replace 527 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: it with more stuff, and ultimately it will lead you 528 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 1: to leanness of soul. That's why I'm bringing him my stomach. 529 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 2: On this fast. 530 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 1: I'm saying, I don't want any appetites in my life. 531 00:33:58,160 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 2: That you can't save. 532 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 1: Spy in your word, I want it your way, I 533 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 1: want your plan, I want your will.
