1
00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:02,800
Speaker 1: Hey, this is Stephen Ferdick.

2
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:05,840
Speaker 2: I'm the pastor of Elevation Church and this is our podcast.

3
00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:08,320
Speaker 2: I wanted to thank you for joining us today. Hope

4
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,040
Speaker 2: this inspires you. Hope it builds your faith. Hope it

5
00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 2: gives your perspective to see God is moving.

6
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:13,440
Speaker 3: In your life.

7
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:14,680
Speaker 1: Enjoy the message.

8
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 3: I was looking back on the sermons that I preached

9
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:22,759
Speaker 3: to you this year, just really trying to put in

10
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,919
Speaker 3: context what the Lord has spoken and remember some of

11
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 3: the things that he shared with us. And it was

12
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 3: just powerful for me to remember the times that we've

13
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 3: shared together in his presence.

14
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,559
Speaker 1: I did a series called Cold, I did a series

15
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:41,200
Speaker 1: called That's What I Thought. I did a series called

16
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: same Lies, New Loops. Thank you.

17
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 3: I already forgot that one, And yeah, that's what you

18
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 3: think about that?

19
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 1: Huh.

20
00:00:55,480 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 3: Indeed, that must mean the Lord wanted to send you

21
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 3: a score update.

22
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 1: To let you know that no matter.

23
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:05,959
Speaker 3: How far down you are in the fourth quarter of

24
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 3: twenty twenty five.

25
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: Touch somebody and say I feel a comeback. Come on,

26
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: it's the last quarter of the year. But God can

27
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: do anything. Look at your neighbors, say da da da

28
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:24,679
Speaker 1: da da da. Sometimes you gotta tell the devil Da

29
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: da da.

30
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 3: Da Philippians, chapter three, verse ten. Thank you to all

31
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 3: of our campus pastors who preached so beautifully last week.

32
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: Thank you for leading, thank you for shepherd, and thank you.

33
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 3: For sharing for the people of God. Making sure you're

34
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 3: still standing. It's good for your circulation. Philippians, chapter three,

35
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 3: verse ten. I can't speak for you, but I.

36
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: Want to know Christ. I do.

37
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 3: I want to know Christ, yes to the power of

38
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 3: his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him

39
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 3: in his death, and so somehow love that word. It

40
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 3: means I'm more focused on the person than the plan.

41
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 3: I want to know Christ so that somehow, however, he

42
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 3: chooses to do it. And that's what we're going to

43
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 3: talk about today, by the way, So somehow I can

44
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 3: attain to the resurrection from the dead. Now this part

45
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,959
Speaker 3: is important, not that I've already obtained all this.

46
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: Or have already arrived at my goal. Wearn't your neighbor,

47
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 1: I'm not there yet, Yeah, tell him? I might. I might.

48
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,279
Speaker 1: I might cuss you out leaving the parking.

49
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 3: Lot today if the Lord doesn't do a work because

50
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 3: I'm not there yet.

51
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: I don't want to. But as possible.

52
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 3: If the traffic's real bad, if you drive stupid, all right, focus,

53
00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:58,639
Speaker 3: I should read the whole verse again.

54
00:02:58,680 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: I messed it up.

55
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 3: Not that I have already obtained all this or have

56
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 3: already arrived at my goal. But I press on to

57
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 3: take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold

58
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 3: of me. Beautiful brothers and sisters. I do not consider

59
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 3: myself to have taken hold of it. But one thing

60
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 3: I do. Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what

61
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 3: is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win

62
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 3: the prize for which God has called me heavenward in

63
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 3: Christ Jesus.

64
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 1: Give the Lord praise for his word. Now. Exodus chapter

65
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 1: number thirteen for our Old Testament demonstration.

66
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 3: Exodus chapter thirteen, verse seventeen says this, when Pharaoh let

67
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 3: the people go, God did not lead them on the

68
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 3: road through the Philistine country, though that was shorter, for

69
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 3: God said, if they face war, they might change their

70
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 3: minds and return to Egypt.

71
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: So God led the people around by the desert road

72
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 1: toward the Red Sea.

73
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 3: The Israelites went up out of Egypt ready for battle.

74
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: Now, I want you to sit down in this order.

75
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 3: Okay, if you are at one of our physical locations today.

76
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 3: Play along. If you're online, just raise your hand in

77
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 3: the chat or something like that. If everything went the

78
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,840
Speaker 3: way you planned it this year, and you are exactly

79
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,360
Speaker 3: where you intended to be in every area of your

80
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 3: life at the end of this year. When you started

81
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 3: the year, you planned it, and right now.

82
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: You possess it. You may be seated.

83
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 3: Because we want to look at who to hire to

84
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 3: be our therapist or our coach or pray for because.

85
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: You're a liar, but everybody else that had a plan

86
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: A and then a plan B.

87
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 3: I want you to look at your neighbor and tell

88
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 3: them my title, because I think.

89
00:04:57,880 --> 00:04:59,279
Speaker 1: The whole church is still standing.

90
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,799
Speaker 3: Tell him this must be my plan.

91
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: See. Hey, you may be seated. Plan see.

92
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 3: That's what I'm calling the message, Chris, this must be

93
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 3: my plan see, and we'll talk a little bit about

94
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 3: what that means in just a moment. There was an

95
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 3: apocalyptic fog in the air as we drove to church today.

96
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 3: Abby and I were driving into church and I looked

97
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 3: at her and said, this is kind of freaky.

98
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: She said, I know, but it's kind of cool.

99
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 3: We were listening to a song that we just recorded

100
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 3: you don't have it yet, you will soon.

101
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 1: It's called so be It.

102
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,919
Speaker 3: And as I was saying this to her, the voice

103
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 3: of the lead vocalist on our song called so be

104
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 3: It said, like a thief in the night, he'll returned

105
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 3: for his bride. Even so, Jesus come, Jesus come, split

106
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 3: the skies.

107
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:55,279
Speaker 1: So be it God.

108
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 3: And I looked at Abby and said, wouldn't it be

109
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 3: wild if while we're listening into that, Jesus just came

110
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 3: back on. It's like six in the morning. She's rolling

111
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 3: her eyes at me and stuff. But I looked at her.

112
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 3: I'm just messing with her. I said, would you be ready?

113
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 3: And she said, uh, not really, I've got some work

114
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:13,359
Speaker 3: to do.

115
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: Just keeping it honest. Like I wouldn't want him to

116
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: come exactly right now.

117
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 3: I don't know what's going on in young Abbey's life

118
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:21,840
Speaker 3: that she needs to repent of.

119
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: Y'all pray for her as well. When the Israelites left Egypt,

120
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 1: the Bible us.

121
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 3: As an interesting phrase, and I call your attention to

122
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 3: it once again as we bring these two amazing, amazing

123
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 3: scriptures together today. One is located out of four hundred

124
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 3: years of slavery, where God set his people free, and

125
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 3: one is located in a prison cell where an apostle

126
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,239
Speaker 3: is being held captive for his obedience to God.

127
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 1: Let me set this up, Okay.

128
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 3: The richness of it is the second scripture I read you,

129
00:06:55,400 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 3: they're coming out of captivity, and the first sure I

130
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 3: read you, he is still in captivity. But I think

131
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,840
Speaker 3: there is a thread that will help us evaluate where

132
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 3: we are, where we wanted to be, the plan we had,

133
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 3: and what God actually did while we were making our plans,

134
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:23,679
Speaker 3: which was laugh. The Egyptians had held God's people captive

135
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 3: to the point that they cried out to God.

136
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: And I want to speak this sermon in three different

137
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 1: stages today.

138
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 3: One I want to talk about the crying, the crying,

139
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 3: and then I want to talk about the crossing, the crossing.

140
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 1: Why aren't you writing down the points? What if there's

141
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 1: a pop quiz on this?

142
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 3: What if the devil tries to beat you up next

143
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 3: week and you need to go back and refer to this,

144
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 3: write it down. The crying, the crossing, and then the covering.

145
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 3: Those three things that I want to talk to you

146
00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 3: about today. They cried out to go Godd, it says

147
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 3: in Exodus chapter three, verse seven.

148
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: This is not for the screen, but just listen to

149
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: it real quick.

150
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 3: When the Lord appeared to Moses, he said, I've come

151
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 3: down because I'm concerned about my people. I have seen

152
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 3: the misery of my people in Egypt. I have heard

153
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 3: them crying out. I have devices all over my house

154
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 3: that listen to me. I know they listen to me

155
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 3: because I talk about a restaurant and it shows up

156
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 3: on my phone without being typed in. I'm thankful that

157
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 3: the Lord listens to me as well, and that he

158
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 3: puts things in my path in response to the prayers

159
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 3: that I pray. Have you ever noticed that God will

160
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 3: put something in your path in response to the prayer

161
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 3: that you prayed.

162
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 1: God won't always pick you up and carry you where

163
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: you need to go, but he'll put something in your path.

164
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 1: I believe for somebody right now.

165
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 3: God put this message in your algorithm because he's putting

166
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 3: something in your path. You almost tripped over this video,

167
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,439
Speaker 3: didn't you. You didn't even want to see a forty

168
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 3: five year old middle aged man in a black hoodie

169
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:03,199
Speaker 3: with a Bible open.

170
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 1: You were looking for something much more entertaining.

171
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 3: But God puts something in your path because he knows

172
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 3: about the things that you're going through, and he wanted

173
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 3: you to accidentally trip over this video.

174
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: It's not the algorithm. It's the anointing of the.

175
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 3: God who loves you so much and called you from

176
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 3: an early age that he would put this message in

177
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 3: your path at this time.

178
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 1: Oh, it's not an accident.

179
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 3: Don't switch it off, don't mute it, don't scroll past it,

180
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 3: don't fast forward till I really start going good. I'm

181
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 3: going right now to tell you that often God will

182
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,679
Speaker 3: answer your prayer by putting something in your path, and

183
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 3: we praise him when he does. We praise him when

184
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 3: he does. We praise him when he does. Now, it's

185
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 3: not luck. It was the Lord. The Lord put that

186
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 3: in my path. It wasn't happenstance. It wasn't coincidence. Stop

187
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 3: blaming coincidence for God's work. You see what I'm saying.

188
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 3: When you call it coincidence, you diminish the divine.

189
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 1: It was God that put it in your path.

190
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,439
Speaker 3: God puts things in our path in response to our prayers.

191
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 3: We are not aware of the things that He puts

192
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 3: in our path, and answer to our prayers, we will

193
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 3: trip right over what he put in front of us,

194
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 3: trying to get to what we think we wanted. I said,

195
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 3: you can trip right in front of what God put Well,

196
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 3: I said that wrong. You can trip over what God

197
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 3: put right in front of you, trying to get where

198
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,959
Speaker 3: you think you need to be, or trying to get

199
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 3: to what you think you want it. Paul said, I

200
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 3: want to know Christ. I'm clear about the outcome. I

201
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 3: want to draw closer to him. If I have to

202
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 3: suffer to get to know him. I would rather suffer

203
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 3: and know him than succeed and forget him. I would

204
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,719
Speaker 3: rather go through something hard and have him than to

205
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 3: be far from him and everybody else think my life

206
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 3: is wonderful. I would rather have Christ. I would rather

207
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 3: have him. I don't want to miss him on the

208
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:56,319
Speaker 3: way to it. And it's so important that you understand

209
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 3: whatever you're going through in your life that God hears

210
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 3: your Christ.

211
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 1: What do we mean when we say that, Well, let

212
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 1: me break it down for you.

213
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 3: And I can't exactly explain this to you, but when

214
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 3: I describe it, the Holy Spirit will.

215
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 1: Help you to know what I'm talking about.

216
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:17,199
Speaker 3: Sometimes God answers your prayer by putting something in your

217
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 3: path that looks like what you prayed for that happens.

218
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 3: But today I want to talk with you for a

219
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 3: little bit about when God sends a problem in answer

220
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 3: to a prayer. Sometimes God will send a problem in

221
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 3: answer to a prayer.

222
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: The example that I'm thinking about in my.

223
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 3: Life right now is too personal to share with you,

224
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 3: But I just recently prayed about something and then a

225
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 3: problem arose and I didn't see the connection between the

226
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 3: two at the time, but the Lord didn't showed me.

227
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 3: You know, that problem that you are now praying for

228
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 3: me to remove from your life. That problem that you're

229
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 3: praying for me to remove, I sent to answer the

230
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 3: last prayer you prayed.

231
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,640
Speaker 1: I don't know if this is clear or not. It's

232
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 1: like I asked God.

233
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 3: To do something in my life and then something happened

234
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 3: that did not resemble what I asked God to do,

235
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 3: and so I'm like, oh God, I got to get

236
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 3: rid of this problem, so you can answer this prayer.

237
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 3: Right I'm praying about this, here comes the problem. I'm like, oh, God,

238
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 3: take this problem out and answer the prayer. And the

239
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 3: Lord's like, I just did, but I did it different.

240
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 3: I did it different, and so now the answer doesn't

241
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 3: resemble the prayer. So you are too blind to see

242
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,600
Speaker 3: that the thing that you're continuing to pray for me

243
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 3: to take away is the thing that I sent to

244
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 3: answer the prayer that you were praying to begin with.

245
00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,559
Speaker 3: I know it's not very clear. Let me try to

246
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 3: make it clear from the Bible. In Exodus chapter thirteen,

247
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 3: God's people are coming out of Egyptian slavery. God answered

248
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 3: their prayer. He sent Moses to get them out of slavery.

249
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 3: But they're not just concerned with coming out of Egypt,

250
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,320
Speaker 3: because where will they go from Egypt.

251
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 1: I have to have somewhere to live. I have to

252
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 1: have some type of soil to cultivate.

253
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 3: I have to have some type of agriculture by which.

254
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 1: I can partner with the earth so that our babies

255
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: can eat.

256
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 3: I have to have some kind of formation. I have

257
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 3: to have some sort of government. And God is always

258
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 3: taking you out of something, bringing you into something, taking

259
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 3: you out of something, bringing you into something, taking you

260
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 3: out of something, and bringing you into something. And the

261
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 3: Bible says something very powerful in Exodus chapter thirteen, verse seventeen,

262
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 3: when Pharaoh let the people go. What's interesting about that

263
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 3: God knew that although Pharaoh had let his people go

264
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 3: with just ten plagues.

265
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 1: His people had still not let Pharaoh go.

266
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 3: In an amazing that it only took God ten plagues.

267
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 1: I know that's a lot, but it's only ten.

268
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 3: It only took God ten plagues to get Pharaoh to

269
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 3: let his people go. Now, Pharaoh didn't let them go quickly.

270
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 3: The enemy will never let you go quickly, not if

271
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 3: you're gifted. Why would he Why would he let you

272
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 3: go quickly? Why would he release his grip on you?

273
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 3: Why would he allow you to forgive without feeling bitterness?

274
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,440
Speaker 3: Why would he give up your services? Why would he

275
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 3: let you go easily? He knows what you're capable of,

276
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,440
Speaker 3: if you ever get liberated.

277
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: Why would he let you go?

278
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 3: Come on, somebody in New York shout, The reason the

279
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 3: devil is squeezing you is because there's something he sees

280
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 3: in you that if you ever get free, if you

281
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 3: ever get loose, if you ever shake this off, if

282
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 3: you ever.

283
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 4: Get out of here, if I ever get out of

284
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 4: this place, if I ever get out of this mindset,

285
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 4: I'm gonna do something for God. Somebody shout, God has

286
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 4: something for me. God's got something for you.

287
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 3: That's what the attack means that's what the enemy is

288
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 3: fighting you over.

289
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 1: God's got something for you. And isn't it.

290
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 3: Amazing that although it only took ten plagues for God

291
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 3: to get Pharaoh to let his people go, it took

292
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 3: forty years of wilderness wandering for God to get his

293
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 3: people to let Pharaoh go. Relief is easy. Freedom is

294
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 3: a process I felt annointed to teach today. Let's don't

295
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 3: worry about all three points. Let's just talk about crying

296
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 3: real quick. What if you are crying about something that

297
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 3: God is using, that God is trying to use.

298
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 1: What if you are crying.

299
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 3: About something right now and the Lord is saying, those

300
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 3: who's so in tears will reap with joy. See you

301
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 3: think those tears are wasted, They're not wasted their water

302
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 3: They are watering a harvest that you can't see right now.

303
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 3: So some of you, God puts something in your life.

304
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 3: It's a great challenge. It's a terrible situation. It's a

305
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 3: horrible situation. It's about as bad as being at a

306
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 3: red sea.

307
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 1: Look at this scripture. The Bible says God could have

308
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 1: taken them a short way, but he didn't. And this

309
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 1: is really the challenge.

310
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 3: Right when God could but he doesn't look at the

311
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 3: scripture again. He led the people around by the desert

312
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 3: road toward the Red Sea. The Israelites went up out

313
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 3: of Egypt ready for battle.

314
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 1: So now I'm confused. Work with me.

315
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 3: If they were ready for battle eighteen, then why in

316
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 3: verse seventeen say does God say if they face war,

317
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 3: they might change their minds and return to Egypt. God

318
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 3: is the only one who really knows when you're ready. Wow.

319
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 3: God is the only one who really knows what's in you.

320
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,920
Speaker 3: So God is the only one who can fully determine

321
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 3: what to take you through and win because He's the

322
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 3: only one who knows what's really in you. There is

323
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 3: a powerful thing that happens when I begin to decide

324
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,639
Speaker 3: in my life that God has me where he wants me,

325
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 3: even if it was caused by an attack of the enemy.

326
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 1: God has me where he wants me.

327
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 3: Now, what would it look like if, at the end

328
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,440
Speaker 3: of this year, because I'm trying to help you, as

329
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 3: you reflect and as you expect and as you accept

330
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 3: and you do all the things that we have to

331
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 3: do at this time of the year, what would it

332
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,160
Speaker 3: look like for you to have the kind of empathy

333
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 3: for yourself and trust in God to realize that even

334
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,919
Speaker 3: if it's taking you a little little longer than you

335
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 3: expected it to take you, watch this. You're still going

336
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 3: to get there. Tell your neighbor You're still going to

337
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 3: get there. Maybe that's what we'll call the message when

338
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,199
Speaker 3: we put it online. Because I know you're running a

339
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 3: little late. I know you got a little bit of

340
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 3: a limp. I know you're not looking as fresh as

341
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 3: you were when you started out the journey. I know

342
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 3: it's not exactly the right time. But you're still gonna

343
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 3: get there. Tell them again and say it with faith.

344
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 3: You're still going to get there. You're still gonna get there.

345
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 3: And it might have some detours along the way, and

346
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 3: it might have some disappointments along the way, and you

347
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 3: might not get there with who you thought was going

348
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 3: to be. Not everybody that started on the road trip

349
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:49,360
Speaker 3: is going to be in the car when you pull up.

350
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 3: But you're still going to get there. You understand what

351
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 3: I'm saying. You might not get through it all unscathed

352
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:57,880
Speaker 3: and unscarred.

353
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 1: You might have to show a few of your wound us.

354
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 3: And your scars along the way to encourage somebody else.

355
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 3: But You're still going to get there. The tears will

356
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:12,159
Speaker 3: not stop you. The trials will not stop you. The

357
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,360
Speaker 3: trauma will not stop you. The traffic will.

358
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: Not stop you.

359
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,720
Speaker 3: It will not stop you. Your boss will not stop you.

360
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 3: The economy will not stop you. The weather will not

361
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 3: stop you.

362
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,719
Speaker 4: That's why I like a day where the fog is out,

363
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,159
Speaker 4: because there was somebody who got up and saw the

Speaker 4: weather was bad, and Charlotte but said, I still gotta

365

367

Speaker 4: come wind, come rain, come storm, come set back, come difficulty,

368
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:48,040

Speaker 1: get there.

376
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:14,720
Speaker 3: I'm not the valedictorian, but I intend to grant away.

377
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 4: I'm still gonna get there.

378
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,679
Speaker 3: I might not do it like she did it, but

379
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 3: I'm still.

00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 1: Gonna get there.

Speaker 4: still gonna get there.

383
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,360
Speaker 1: I might have a story.

384
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:33,479
Speaker 4: To tell, but I've tell my story how I've overcome.

385
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 3: High five three people say, just get there, Just get there,

386
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 3: Just get there, Just get there.

387
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 4: Wipe your deers and drive, wipe your deers and walk,

388
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 4: wipe your tears and lift your hands.

389
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 1: I'm still gonna get there.

390
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,360
Speaker 4: I would have despair had I not.

391
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 3: Believe that, I would see.

392
00:20:55,760 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 1: What shi of the Lord?

393
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 3: So, Moses, why are we going this way? Can't we

394
00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 3: go the straight way? And see there's a difference between

395
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 3: the straight way and the right way.

396
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 1: This is plan A.

397
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 3: This is plan A, and this is plan B. This

398
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 3: is plan C.

399
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 5: Watch me.

400
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 3: This.

401
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: Tell your neighbor. This might be your Plan C. Plan

402
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 1: C is like this.

403
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 3: Okay, here's where they were Egypt, right, here's where they

404
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 3: were going Canaan.

405
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 1: That's plan A. And then plan B is go back.

406
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 1: That's what B stands for. We're going back to Egypt.

407
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:08,119
Speaker 1: This is Plan C. Plan C doesn't make any sense.

408
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: Plan C.

409
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 3: Is wait a minute, we're going around in a circle.

410
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:22,880
Speaker 1: Why are you taking us this way? Moses?

411
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:31,800
Speaker 6: Moses must be bad with a map, sometimes the mission

412
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 6: doesn't look like the map.

413
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 1: Now this is so true for your life. I need

414
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 1: you to know that you're still gonna get there. Say it.

415
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 3: I'm still gonna get there. I'm still gonna get there.

416
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,679
Speaker 3: Graham came to me this weekend. He said, something horrible happened.

417
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:52,919
Speaker 3: We had the speaker lined up to speak Sunday night

418
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 3: at the living room and they.

419
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 6: Can't speak now. And so what do I do? I said, Oh,

420
00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 6: it's time for plan.

421
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 1: See. Plan see is cry out to the Lord.

422
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 3: And then cram and then cram the message as fast

423
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 3: as you can, because this is plan see. I know

424
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,959
Speaker 3: it's nice when you get to prepare Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday,

425
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 3: but this is Friday and you got to speak Sunday.

426
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 1: So this is plan. This is when you thought you

427
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:28,880
Speaker 1: were going.

428
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 3: To have a week off, But this is when you

429
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 3: thought you were going to retire at age sixty two,

430
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 3: but you got to refire.

431
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 1: Now this is plan See. I'm preaching to somebody.

432
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 3: I'm setting somebody free just to see this plan see.

433
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 3: This is when it could have happened that fast, and

434
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 3: you wanted to go back, but God won't let you

435
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 3: go back, but you can't go forward, and God's taken

436
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:56,680
Speaker 3: you on plan see back in rehab, plan see back

437
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:57,440
Speaker 3: in recovery.

438
00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,160
Speaker 1: Plan see sending the children to their mother's house.

439
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 3: On the weekends. You didn't plan that getting married. This

440
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 3: is plan see. This is plan see. I didn't want

441
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 3: to lose my virginity, but I did.

442
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: And now I'm.

443
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 3: Asking God, can he help me move past this in

444
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 3: a new way.

445
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 1: This is plan see.

446
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 3: And it doesn't mean that God left you. It just

447
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,400
Speaker 3: means he's leading me differently.

448
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:21,160
Speaker 1: This is plan.

449
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 3: Ough. Ough, I feel the testimony's coming back to me

450
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 3: even as I preach the word, it's just going to

451
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 3: be one.

452
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: Of those words where the reapers overtake the solers.

453
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,160
Speaker 3: Means, by the time I can even release this word

454
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,400
Speaker 3: into your heart, you are going to see. What God

455
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 3: is saying to you is that you thought you were

456
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 3: going here and then you wanted to go back. And

457
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 3: it's not Plan A, and it's not Plan B. It's

458
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 3: going to be Plan C. Because there is something that

459
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 3: God knows about me that he finds it necessary for

460
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 3: this stage of my life to take me not like

461
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:03,640
Speaker 3: this and not like this, but like this and I'm

462
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 3: still gonna get there, but I'm gonna get there in

463
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:10,119
Speaker 3: a circular route. And I write this down. Not every

464
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 3: circle is a sin. Not every circle is a sin.

465
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,399
Speaker 3: The Israelites spent forty years in the wilderness because they

466
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 3: would not believe.

467
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 1: But before they spent forty years.

468
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 3: Because of their unbelief, God took them on a two

469
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 3: week detour because of his mercy. He knew there's something

470
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 3: I need to do in you. So I'm just trying

471
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 3: to see will you let go of Plan A and

472
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 3: will you refuse Plan B so you can see what

473
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,960
Speaker 3: God wants to do in your life.

474
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,040
Speaker 1: I could go home right now, but we can keep

475
00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 1: going if you want to.

476
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,160
Speaker 3: Let's talk about the crossing. We talked about the crying.

477
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 3: Let's talk about the crossing. Who should I use for

478
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:11,080
Speaker 3: this illustration? Volunteer yourself if you if you dare somebody

00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 1: You do not have to expose yourself. I wouldn't, but

485
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:26,159
Speaker 1: just if Christmas is going to be tight for you

486
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:26,640
Speaker 1: this year.

487
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 3: And you want to use as a volunteer, and you

489
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:39,439
Speaker 1: You're committee. You don't know what I'm gonna do. So

490
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 1: whatever I want to do for this illustration, you'll do it. Yeah, yeah,

491
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 1: all right.

492
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 3: You have to do exactly what I say, nothing more,

493
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 3: nothing less. You committed to the illustration.

494
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 1: Thank you. Put your hand out, yeah, open like that.

495
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 1: Can we see this on.

496
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,439
Speaker 3: The cameras everybody, Let's get our optimal camera angle so

497
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,159
Speaker 3: this illustrate and put them up a litt higher, little higher,

498
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 3: lit higher, Yeah, right there. Now I prayed about whether

499
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 3: to do this. You know what I'm about to do.

500
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:19,199
Speaker 3: Anybody else want to volunteer. I'm gonna just show this

501
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 3: real quick. It's gonna be very simple. If I give

502
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:31,880
Speaker 3: you this and it says ten, and you take it and.

503
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,239
Speaker 1: Then you squeeze it, I mean ball it up and

504
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: squeeze it.

505
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 3: Squeeze the other hand to just to complete the illustration,

506
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 3: and squeeze it. Squeeze the thumb in there, to the thumb.

507
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 3: Put the thumb where you can't get to it for

508
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 3: the sake of the illustration. There we go and she

509
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 3: squeezes it so tight, squeeze it so tight till it hurts.

510
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 1: And then I have one of these and I say, okay,

511
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 1: I would like to give you this too. No no, no,

512
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 1: no, no no no, put the thumb and lamb.

513
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:09,160
Speaker 3: But what you instinctively did is what you would have

514
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 3: to do. You would have to release to receive right now,

515
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,160
Speaker 3: ball it up. And this is what we do. This

516
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,919
Speaker 3: is what we do. We get real tight when.

517
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:27,680
Speaker 1: God gives us something.

518
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 3: Right, But what if God wants to give you something else?

519
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 4: You're like, I knew he was a prosperity preacher. It's

520
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 4: a metaphor, it's an analogy. This is my own personal money.

521
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 4: I'm giving it away. I'm not asking her for money.

522
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 4: I'm trying to give her something. But if I'm trying

523
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 4: to give.

524
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 3: Her something and her grip on what I just gave

525
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 3: her is too tight.

526
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: I I can try to give her something. No no, no, no, no.

527
00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:05,240
Speaker 3: You're creative.

528
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 1: Don't mess up my illustration. Now you can receive when

529
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 1: you release, release, ball.

530
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 3: It up, ball it up, ball it up, till when

531
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,160
Speaker 3: you hand it to somebody, they wonder what has she

532
00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 3: been through?

533
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,240
Speaker 1: What? What happened, ball it up.

534
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 3: But if you hold it too tight, there may be

535
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 3: more that God wants to give you, but he can't.

536
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 1: Oh, oh, I hear I heard like this. God said,

537
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 1: I can't fill your fists. You want one, you want one?

538
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 1: Come on, do it real quick. I got plenty of

539
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:53,479
Speaker 1: this as long as you've got open hands on Now.

540
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 1: It's getting really good, y'all. It's getting better and better

541
00:29:58,240 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 1: and better.

542
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 3: But but if she she wants to hold on to

543
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:04,959
Speaker 3: what that was, she can't get what this is.

544
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: And this is a but watch what she did because

545
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 1: she has learned by now.

546
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 3: That this person standing in front of me is a giver,

547
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 3: not a taker.

548
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 4: When you learn that about God, it's just absolutely amazing.

549
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 3: Because God's like, if you'll open your hands, come on,

550
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 3: opening all the way up, and keep your hands open,

551
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 3: and keep your heart open, and keep your mind open.

552
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:39,280
Speaker 1: And keep your.

553
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 3: Spirit open, and keep your faith high and keep your hope.

554
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 3: I will never stop meeting your needs.

555
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 1: God sees you.

556
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 3: God sees you season, he sees me, He sees me

557
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 3: empty handed, he sees me broken hearted, he sees me

558
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 3: crying at night.

559
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 1: He sees me, and he holds me. Did you notice

560
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 1: now listen, you gotta get through this so I can

561
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 1: appreciate this next point.

562
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 3: Did you notice that Paul said, I'm striving to take

563
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 3: hold of that.

564
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 1: For which Jesus already took hold of me. That means

565
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 1: that I don't have to grab it because God grabed me. Man,

566
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 1: y'all give her a hand. Merry Christmas.

567
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 3: Everybody, hugger quick, everybody in that section. I'm gonna give

568
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 3: her a hug too. Hey, thank you for helping me preach.

569
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 3: Thank you for helping.

570
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 1: Me show that the secret in this season of your life. Hey,

571
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 1: it's not this, that's this. Is this.

572
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 3: Because you raised your hand, God filled it.

573
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 1: I love it. I love the Lord. He heard my crawl.

574
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: He pitied every girl.

575
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 3: And not only did he lead them through the desert,

576
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 3: but he led them through the water. That's the crossing,

577
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 3: the crossing. Why is God taking me through this? Why

578
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 3: is God letting it be like this? Why is God

579
00:32:56,240 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 3: allowing this season in my life? It's the crossing. It's

580
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 3: the crossing because God knew they were too weak for war,

581
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 3: so he led them to water. He knew they were

582
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,960
Speaker 3: too weak for war, so he led them to water.

583
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 3: God knew that even though Pharaoh had temporarily let them go.

584
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: He was coming back to get them.

585
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 3: For the Bible says that no sooner had they got

586
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 3: to that place at the Red Sea, than the chariots

587
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:31,720
Speaker 3: of Pharaoh begin to click clack behind them. And as

588
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 3: those chariots begin to make their sound and the engines

589
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 3: of the enemy began to rev the Bible says in

590
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 3: Exodus fourteen fifteen that they cried.

591
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,120
Speaker 1: Out to the.

592
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 4: Lord and to Moses, why did you bring us out

593
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 4: here to die?

594
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:52,040
Speaker 1: No, we're going across this water.

595
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 3: We're going across this water because what is against you

596
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 3: is more than what's with you. And if you fight

597
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:04,160
Speaker 3: this enemy hand to hand, you will die. But God

598
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,680
Speaker 3: knew something very strategic. Now watch this.

599
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 1: This is another reason that I love God is.

600
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 3: Because for God, this is the strategic route, even if

601
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 3: it's not the short route. And so they're standing in

602
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 3: a red sea, and this is where it all comes together.

603
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 1: For me. The red Sea is a problem.

604
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:33,439
Speaker 3: But they are praying a prayer, so God leads them

605
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 3: to a problem in answer to a prayer.

606
00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 1: Is this the best sermon?

607
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 4: I ap precaw year or am I just capfeinated?

608
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 1: So I be like God? Take me around this. What

609
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:53,959
Speaker 1: am I gonna do with a sea?

610
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 3: And God says, oh, you'll see.

611
00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,640
Speaker 4: Because I didn't bring you out here because I'm done

612
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 4: with you. I brought you out here to deal with

613
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,279
Speaker 4: your enemies and.

614
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:10,360
Speaker 1: To drown them in this. See.

615
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 4: This is my plan.

616
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:20,360
Speaker 1: See.

617
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:24,879
Speaker 3: And the Egyptians you see today, you will see them

618
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:26,320
Speaker 3: no more.

619
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:30,359
Speaker 1: But you got to let go now, You've got to.

620
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 3: Let go of what you were holding on to. Paul said,

621
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 3: I didn't.

622
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 4: Forget about Paul forgetting what is behind me and reaching

623
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:44,239
Speaker 4: toward what's ahead. I press toward the mark for the

624
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 4: prize of the High Calling of God. In Christ, Jesus

625
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:54,720
Speaker 4: and Paul wrote about the prize from a prison, which

626
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:59,320
Speaker 4: goes to show me God's got me right where.

627
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:06,279
Speaker 1: He and I'm still gonna get there. Well, y'all used

628
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:08,920
Speaker 1: up all your shout, or you will be shouting about.

629
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,000
Speaker 4: This red sea in front of you. You would be

630
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 4: shouting about your problem.

631
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:16,160
Speaker 3: If you knew the nature of your God, it's that

632
00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:20,839
Speaker 3: he leads us to impossible situations. He leads us to

633
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:23,840
Speaker 3: the deep end so that we might learn to depend

634
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:24,439
Speaker 3: on him.

635
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:28,399
Speaker 4: He leads us to the water because he knows we're

636
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 4: not ready for war. So God sees what you're fighting against.

637
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:36,799
Speaker 4: God sees what you're up against. God sees you're outnumbered

638
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 4: for it. God sees you're too young to do it.

639
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 4: God sees you're too old to carry it.

640
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,280
Speaker 1: God sees you're too small to do it. God sees

641
00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 1: you're not smart enough to know it.

642
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:50,880
Speaker 3: And he says, I have a seed to deal with that,

643
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:56,319
Speaker 3: if you will move forward in faith. The presence of

644
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:59,719
Speaker 3: the Lord is in this place. The presence of the

645
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:03,719
Speaker 3: Lord is in this place. The spirit of God is

646
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 3: in this place.

647
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:11,440
Speaker 1: And it's the most amazing thing.

648
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 3: Man. If you never read the story, the Bible says

649
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:18,840
Speaker 3: that they crossed through on dry ground and their enemies didn't.

650
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 3: There's going to be some things you look back on

651
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 3: at the end of this year that tried to kill you.

652
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,640
Speaker 3: But what you didn't understand about what you were going

653
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:29,719
Speaker 3: through in your situation.

654
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 1: That wasn't your Plan A, and it wasn't Plan B.

655
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 1: It was Plan See, it was a crossing.

656
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:43,720
Speaker 3: After all, none of the disciples signed up to follow

657
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 3: Jesus to death.

658
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:50,480
Speaker 1: Wow, none of them signed up for a cross Well

659
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:50,879
Speaker 1: he did.

660
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:55,719
Speaker 3: He said, if there's any other way, Plan B, take

661
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 3: this cup from me, but he went to the cross

662
00:37:58,520 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 3: and he died.

663
00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 1: Why it was his plan?

664
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 3: See, Paul said, I want to know Christ.

665
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:06,279
Speaker 1: That's my plan.

666
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:08,400
Speaker 3: See hey, all of y'all that are praying about stuff,

667
00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 3: you can't control time to go to plans.

668
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 1: See God, I can't control this. You can. I want

669
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 1: to know you. I want to know you. I want

670
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,600
Speaker 1: to know you more than I want to get her number.

671
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 1: I want to know you more than I want them

672
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:24,919
Speaker 1: to follow me back. I want to know you more

673
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:27,439
Speaker 1: than I want to like on this close. I want

674
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:32,000
Speaker 1: to know you. What good is knowing what college to

675
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:33,920
Speaker 1: go to? If you don't take Christ with you when

676
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 1: you get there. I want to know you. God brought

677
00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,840
Speaker 1: you to this water. Devil can't drown you in a

678
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:45,279
Speaker 1: crossing that God brought you to.

679
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,319
Speaker 4: Paul said, even if I have to suffer, even if

680
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 4: I have to stay in this cell, this is not.

681
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:52,799
Speaker 1: Where I'm meant to be.

682
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,799
Speaker 3: And one thing the text shows us is that whether

683
00:38:55,880 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 3: you are in captivity or whether you're headed toward freedom, God.

684
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 1: Is with you on this plan. See somebody, stop planning.

685
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:08,719
Speaker 3: See just all over your life this year, things you

686
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:09,520
Speaker 3: don't understand.

687
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,359
Speaker 1: Just boom boom, don't. God's not done.

688
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 3: It's a plan c when when he does his see

689
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:18,720
Speaker 3: with your see is going to all come full circle

690
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,960
Speaker 3: and you are going to understand the goodness of God

691
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:23,279
Speaker 3: at a level that you.

692
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 1: Have never known before.

693
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:37,720
Speaker 3: Right, just crying, and there's crossing, and there's covering, there's covering.

694
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:49,360
Speaker 3: Stand up, I'm done. As they went through the sea,

695
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:55,840
Speaker 3: the Bible says that Moses had one job to do,

696
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 3: and if he did this job, God would handle every

697
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:02,840
Speaker 3: part of the battle that he could not handle.

698
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 1: And it's pretty simple, but it's kind of hard to

699
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 1: do sometimes.

700
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:15,640
Speaker 3: In Exitus chapter fourteen, as the people are standing in

701
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:21,480
Speaker 3: front of a red sea, up against battles that they're

702
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:25,000
Speaker 3: not ready to fight, surrounded by enemies that they are

703
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:29,480
Speaker 3: not strong enough to subdue, you feel like that. I'm

704
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:31,760
Speaker 3: gonna stop my sermon for a minute. If you feel

705
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 3: like that, watch what Moses did because he thought the

706
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:38,799
Speaker 3: Lord was just going to do something. This is so

707
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 3: funny in the Bible sometimes there's little jokes, but you

708
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,279
Speaker 3: just you think the Bible's boring, so you don't get them.

709
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 3: Moses gives a speech to the people. He says verse

710
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:49,839
Speaker 3: fourteen Exitus fourteen, the Lord will fight for you.

711
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 1: You need only to be still. Then the Lord said

712
00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:54,480
Speaker 1: to Moses, why are you crying out to me? Tell

713
00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:55,799
Speaker 1: the Israelites to move on.

714
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:04,640
Speaker 3: Crying is no substitute for cross. You can stand there

715
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 3: and cry and get killed, or you can move forward

716
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:17,799
Speaker 3: in the season with what you have because play LJ.

717
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:19,759
Speaker 3: The Lord said, why are you crying out to me?

718
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:24,520
Speaker 3: Tell the Israelites to move on? Raise your staff and

719
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:30,680
Speaker 3: stretch out your hand. So the Lord says that the

720
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 3: key to this is going to be what Paul said

721
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 3: in Philippians chapter three, that I am letting go of

722
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:44,840
Speaker 3: what's behind me and letting God deal with that, and

723
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 3: I'm reaching toward what's ahead of me.

724
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 5: And if you will do this, God will do that.

725
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:09,160
Speaker 3: And the Bible says that they had to go through

726
00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:12,759
Speaker 3: some raging waters in UF two. You know, let's just

727
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:14,680
Speaker 3: rejoice for a moment in our hearts. You don't have

728
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,279
Speaker 3: to clap or shout or nothing like that. Just in

729
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:21,359
Speaker 3: your own heart kind of tell the Lord Lake, I

730
00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:25,319
Speaker 3: know it's amazing what you brought me through. See, because

731
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 3: nobody else really knows what it cost you to get here.

732
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:31,840
Speaker 3: Nobody knows what it cost you nobody knows what you cried.

733
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:36,280
Speaker 3: Nobody really knows how much you're having to let go of. Look,

734
00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:38,880
Speaker 3: there are people in this room today who are having

735
00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:42,839
Speaker 3: to unlearn their entire upbringing to follow Christ. They were

736
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 3: not raised in a Christian family, they were not shown

737
00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,520
Speaker 3: how to read the Bible, they were not taught about Jesus.

738
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:52,960
Speaker 1: And God has brought you this far. So as we

739
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 1: thank God for that and what you've been through. I mean,

740
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 1: if you.

741
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,840
Speaker 3: Really just would think about it for one split second

742
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 3: of your life, the fear of what's next would look

743
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:07,280
Speaker 3: much smaller in the context of all you've been through already.

744
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,880
Speaker 4: I mean, the devil missed his window to take you

745
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:13,560
Speaker 4: out because there had been some things that you have

746
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,600
Speaker 4: been through that were much bigger than this.

747
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 1: And as they walk through the waters, I love to.

748
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:24,280
Speaker 3: Get a picture of it man, because at this point

749
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:27,560
Speaker 3: they've basically already given up faith in their leader because

750
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:30,800
Speaker 3: he's taken them the long way. But God was leading

751
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:33,640
Speaker 3: them through him, and they have no idea what's going

752
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:36,000
Speaker 3: to happen next, only that this man is holding up

753
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:39,160
Speaker 3: a stick in front of a sea. So if you

754
00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:42,040
Speaker 3: feel like that today, I need you to know that

755
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:46,320
Speaker 3: God has you covered. The Bible says in verse sixteen,

756
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:48,920
Speaker 3: raiz your staff and stretch out your hand over the

757
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 3: sea to divide the water, so that the Israelites can

758
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:55,880
Speaker 3: go through on dry ground. I will harden the hearts

759
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:58,000
Speaker 3: of the Egyptians so that they will go.

760
00:43:58,040 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 1: In after them.

761
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:04,000
Speaker 3: And I will gain glory through Pharaoh and his army,

762
00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:08,160
Speaker 3: through his chariots and his horsemen. Did you notice that

763
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:11,799
Speaker 3: everything that was going to kill them was an instrument

764
00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:14,560
Speaker 3: in the hands of God for a greater glory.

765
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:19,000
Speaker 4: I prophesy it over your life, what the enemy meant

766
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 4: for evil. Help me preach. Then somebody shout.

767
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:29,120
Speaker 3: Now, Then the Angel of God, who had been traveling

768
00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:32,320
Speaker 3: in front of Israel's army, withdrew and went behind them.

769
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:34,680
Speaker 3: And the pillar of cloud also moved from in front

770
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:37,800
Speaker 3: and stood behind them, coming between the armies of Egypt

771
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,720
Speaker 3: and Israel. And throughout the night, the cloud brought darkness

772
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 3: to the one side and light to the other side,

773
00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:47,080
Speaker 3: so neither went near the other all night long. Then

774
00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:52,840
Speaker 3: Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and all

775
00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:53,879
Speaker 3: that night the.

776
00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,759
Speaker 1: Lord drove the seed back. You see it. Moses is

777
00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:59,239
Speaker 1: doing this, and God is doing this.

778
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:03,759
Speaker 3: Moses is doing this, and God is doing this, and

779
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:08,360
Speaker 3: Moses is and God has you covered in this season

780
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:13,200
Speaker 3: of your life. The waters were divided, and the Israelites

781
00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:16,239
Speaker 3: went through the sea on dry ground, with the wall

782
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:20,400
Speaker 3: of water on their right and on their left. The

783
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:24,719
Speaker 3: Egyptians pursued them, and all pharaohs, horses and chariots and

784
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:26,319
Speaker 3: horsemen followed them into the sea.

785
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:28,160
Speaker 1: During the last watch of.

786
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:29,800
Speaker 3: The night, the Lord looked down from the pillar of

787
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 3: fire and cloud at the Egyptian army and threw it

788
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:35,280
Speaker 3: into confusion. And he jammed the wheels of their chariots

789
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:39,120
Speaker 3: so that they had difficulty driving. And the Egyptians, the enemies,

790
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:42,680
Speaker 3: the forces that came to conspire against the people of God,

791
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:45,360
Speaker 3: said let's get away from the Israelites.

792
00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:49,120
Speaker 1: The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt.

793
00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:52,879
Speaker 3: Then the Lord said to Moses, watch this, stretch out

794
00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:58,160
Speaker 3: your hand over the sea, so that the waters may

795
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:03,760
Speaker 3: flow back over the Egyptians and their chariots and horsemen.

796
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:06,000
Speaker 3: Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and at

797
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,560
Speaker 3: daybreak the sea went back to its place. The Egyptians

798
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:10,800
Speaker 3: were fleeing toward it, and the Lord swept them into

799
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:16,680
Speaker 3: the sea. The water flowed back and covered the chariots

800
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:21,279
Speaker 3: and the horsemen, the entire army of Pharaoh that had

801
00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:29,640
Speaker 3: followed the Israelites into the sea. Not one of them survived, hallelujah.

802
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:34,640
Speaker 1: But the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground.

803
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 3: Notice how many times it says, see because this is planned.

804
00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:44,320
Speaker 3: See the Israelites went through the sea, they were covered.

805
00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:48,160
Speaker 3: The Egyptians drowned in the sea. It covered them. God

806
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:50,640
Speaker 3: is working all things together for your good. God is

807
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:53,239
Speaker 3: working all things together for his glory. God is working

808
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:56,240
Speaker 3: all things together for a purpose. God is working all things.

809
00:46:56,080 --> 00:47:02,959
Speaker 1: Together for a plant. You just keep doing this verse

810
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:05,560
Speaker 1: thirty and I'll finish that day.

811
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:09,879
Speaker 3: The Lord saved Israel from the hands of the Egyptians,

812
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:17,640
Speaker 3: and all Israel saw the Egyptians lying dead on the shore.

813
00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:19,920
Speaker 3: So I don't have to see it to believe it.

814
00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:25,319
Speaker 3: Because I know that God is with me. And I've

815
00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:27,160
Speaker 3: been praying about some things in my life, like you've

816
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:29,200
Speaker 3: been praying about some things in your life, and I've

817
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:31,000
Speaker 3: had some things in my life that didn't quite.

818
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:33,520
Speaker 1: Match up at this point. And honestly, I'm gonna get

819
00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:34,600
Speaker 1: real specific with you.

820
00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:38,160
Speaker 3: There's not that many things about my life that I

821
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 3: can complain about. But sometimes there's some things about me

822
00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 3: that I thought would be better by now y'all just

823
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:49,959
Speaker 3: leaving me up here like I'm the only dog on

824
00:47:49,960 --> 00:48:01,279
Speaker 3: one doing like this sometimes. But the Lord will bring

825
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:04,680
Speaker 3: you to the water for the worst that you're not

826
00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:08,319
Speaker 3: ready for. I want to challenge you, y'all. We've got

827
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:14,000
Speaker 3: like a few weeks left and we'll be saying goodbye yesterday.

828
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:17,200
Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell you, if you take the chariots with

829
00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:19,600
Speaker 3: you into the Promised Land, you won't be there long.

830
00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:24,160
Speaker 1: There are some things that God wants to deal with

831
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:28,000
Speaker 1: in your life. And God might have sent a problem

832
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:29,560
Speaker 1: to answer a prayer.

833
00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:32,160
Speaker 3: What was Paul's prayer? I want to know Christ. So

834
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 3: God put him in a prison and said you'll get

835
00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:40,680
Speaker 3: to know me here. So Paul said, I have a

836
00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:45,000
Speaker 3: prize in the prison. So do you a prize in

837
00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:45,520
Speaker 3: the prison?

838
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:48,520
Speaker 1: You hear that? A prize in the prison?

839
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:54,560
Speaker 3: Father? These are your people. I didn't make them, I

840
00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:56,760
Speaker 3: didn't create them. I can't lead them through deep waters.

841
00:48:56,800 --> 00:49:02,040
Speaker 1: You can now, God, we're holding on to so much.

842
00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:05,800
Speaker 3: I mean, we've got our fist bald up so tight

843
00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:10,400
Speaker 3: on a ten dollars blessing We've got our fist bald

844
00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:12,919
Speaker 3: up so tight on the way we think about us,

845
00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:14,800
Speaker 3: on the way that we think about others.

846
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:17,080
Speaker 1: We've got our fist bald up so tight on our

847
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 1: Plan A.

848
00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:21,759
Speaker 3: Some of us are thinking about going back Plan bing,

849
00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:26,279
Speaker 3: but today you told us that Plan C. It's for

850
00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:29,920
Speaker 3: us to trust you, give the situation to you, follow

851
00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:30,279
Speaker 3: you for it.

852
00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:35,200
Speaker 1: And I believe God. Yeah, dude, I believe that.

853
00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:39,560
Speaker 3: You're going to bring them across this red seed that

854
00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:40,359
Speaker 3: they're going through.

855
00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:42,920
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that is a cute metaphor. God, I

856
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:45,600
Speaker 1: have faith for it for them, And.

857
00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:48,960
Speaker 3: Even if they don't believe right now, would you just

858
00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:53,480
Speaker 3: give them the strength to let go? Is such a

859
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:56,160
Speaker 3: strange thing to pray for. We think is so strong

860
00:49:56,239 --> 00:50:00,880
Speaker 3: to hold on, but the strength to let go and

861
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:05,359
Speaker 3: to go forward. It's time for Plan See. It's time

862
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:08,120

Speaker 3: trust Him with your life. Head's bowed, eyes closed. There's

871
00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:35,080
Speaker 3: this moment.

872
00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:36,960
Speaker 1: This is a threshold for you.

873
00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:39,680
Speaker 3: You are here today because God has been drawing you

874
00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:42,439
Speaker 3: and leading you and calling you out of your sin,

875
00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:43,560
Speaker 3: out of your.

876
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:45,160
Speaker 1: Shame, and into his love.

877
00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:47,920
Speaker 3: The Bible says that if you will confess with your

878
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:50,040
Speaker 3: mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart

879
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:52,880
Speaker 3: God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

880

Speaker 3: Right now, I'm going to pray a prayer for the

882
00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:01,400
Speaker 3: benefit of those who are coming to God and listen.

883
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:03,640
Speaker 3: If this is you and you feel it in your

884
00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:06,239
Speaker 3: heart and you're ready to repent of your sin and

885
00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:09,080
Speaker 3: trust in God and give him your life, I want

886
00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:12,520
Speaker 3: you to know that the work has already been done.

887
00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:15,760
Speaker 3: Jesus already died the death we should have died.

888
00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:18,040
Speaker 1: He lived the life we could not live.

889
00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:20,879
Speaker 3: He paid a debt he did not owe, so that

890
00:51:20,960 --> 00:51:22,080
Speaker 3: you could be saved.

891
00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 1: The only thing for you to do is to believe.

892
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:29,520
Speaker 3: So right now, if you're ready for that, to give

893
00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:31,960

Speaker 1: Repeat after me, Heavenly Father.

898
00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:44,719
Speaker 3: I am a sinner in need of a savior, and

899
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:49,360
Speaker 3: I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God

900
00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:56,000
Speaker 3: and the savior of the world. Today I make Jesus the.

901
00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:57,880
Speaker 1: Lord of my life.

902
00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:02,400
Speaker 3: I believe he died that I would be forgiven and

903
00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:05,239
Speaker 3: rose again to give me life.

904
00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:08,840
Speaker 1: I receive this new life.

905
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:14,439
Speaker 3: This is my new beginning. I am a child of God.

906
00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:17,320
Speaker 3: On the counter, three, raise your hand. If you prayed

907
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:20,680
Speaker 3: that one, two, three hands went up before I even
