Y'all don't have to keep repeating the whole thing. 22 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 3: That kind of persuasion does not come from the one 23 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,479 Speaker 3: who calls you a little yeast works through the whole 24 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,640 Speaker 3: batch of doe. I am confident in the Lord that 25 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 3: you will take no other view. The one who is 26 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 3: throwing you into confusion, whoever that may be, will have 27 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 3: to pay the penalty. You are running a good race, Paul, 28 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 3: more than any other author in the Bible. He refers 29 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 3: to our following of our Christ's relationship with Jesus are 30 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 3: as we're Christians. He continually, through his teachings and through 31 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 3: his writings, refers to it as a race, as a marathon, 32 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 3: and he says, keep running the good race. 33 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: Run. 34 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 3: And you know, I don't really understand this because I'm 35 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 3: not a runner. 36 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:11,959 Speaker 1: It's not my thing. 37 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 3: I like more violent forms of working out, like boxing 38 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 3: or weightlifting. 39 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: Is anybody here. I hear there's a thing called a 40 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 1: runner's high. 41 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 3: Never experienced it, probably never will, but I hear that's 42 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 3: a thing. And I'm proud of you. If you've experienced that, 43 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 3: good for you. Not my thing, but I do, I 44 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 3: do want to run my race on the spiritual realm. Well, 45 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 3: and what's happening here is he's acknowledging that the churches 46 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:49,080 Speaker 3: in Galatia were running their race. Well, he says, you 47 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 3: know you were consistently in church, Maybe you were running 48 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 3: your race well, you were leading that small group. 49 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: You were doing what. 50 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 3: I've called you to do. You the fruit of your 51 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 3: time with me was evident in your life. You were 52 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 3: loving people, you were giving you. You weren't bitter, you 53 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:09,399 Speaker 3: weren't angry, You were openly giving what you had received. 54 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 3: Who cut in on you and stopped you? That love 55 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 3: began to dwindle, that passion began to fade, and that 56 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 3: blazing fire that was once there becomes just a flicker. 57 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 3: Who cut in on you to stop you from obeying 58 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 3: the truth. Some translations say this who hindered you, who 59 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 3: held you back, grabbed onto the back of your shirt, 60 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 3: and jerked you off course. Some translations believe that the 61 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 3: wording here describes the breaking up of the road in 62 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 3: front of them. Who broke up the road in front 63 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 3: of you as you were on your way, running your race, 64 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 3: worshiping Jesus, lifting your hands, doing what you knew you 65 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 3: were supposed to do, and called and fulfilled. But life 66 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 3: and sometimes people always have a way of cutting in 67 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 3: on us and pushing us off course. The Greek word 68 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 3: here means cope to the word hindrance, and it means 69 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 3: to strike, to apply a sudden forceful blow in order 70 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,280 Speaker 3: to either arrest something moving or cut off something attached. 71 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 3: It describes a brutal interference with an item's natural course 72 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 3: of action. 73 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: Who cut in on you? What cut in on you? 74 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 1: Was it a diagnosis? 75 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 3: Was it the violent blow of cancer? Was it the 76 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 3: cutting and heartbreaking blow of an infertility diagnosis? Was it 77 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 3: that heartbreaking blow and cutting in on of a divorce, 78 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 3: of a mistake or. 79 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: A failure that you made? 80 00:04:55,080 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 3: Where you cut in on you, devastating cutting of what 81 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 3: feels like the silence of God and our greatest moments 82 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 3: of need. I don't know your exact circumstance or situation, 83 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 3: but I have good news today. 84 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: I will say it like Paul. 85 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 3: Said it, But I am convinced today that you will 86 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:25,039 Speaker 3: take no other view. This kind of persuasion does not 87 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 3: come from the one who calls you. And so if 88 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 3: you came in here confused, if you came in here 89 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 3: knocked off your path, if you came in here sitting 90 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 3: on the side of the road, beaten down and broke down, 91 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,719 Speaker 3: I have good news to tell you today. I am persuaded, 92 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 3: and I am convinced that you will take no other view. 93 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 1: That you will get back on course and continue to 94 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: run your way. 95 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 3: Swell whoever is throwing you into confusion, and we know 96 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 3: that we battle not against flesh and bud blood, but 97 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 3: against principalities of darkness. 98 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 1: The Bible is clear that God is not the author. 99 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 3: Of confusion, that Satan is the accuser of the brethren. 100 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: That he is the father of all lies. 101 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 3: That's what's throwing you off course is a little bit 102 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 3: of yeast has gotten in, a little bit of the 103 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 3: lie of the enemy, a little bit of doubt, a 104 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 3: little bit of uncertainty, a little bit of confusion, and 105 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 3: it works its way through the entire batch of doe. 106 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 3: But I am convinced you will take no other view. 107 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 3: This does not come from the one. 108 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: Who calls you. 109 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 3: The Bible gives us examples over and over and over again. 110 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 3: And I can't help but in this context of this scripture, to. 111 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 1: Think about Peter in the Bible. 112 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 3: The Bible says that he was a fisherman, and Jesus 113 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 3: came by, and he wasn't a very good fisherman, might add, 114 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,559 Speaker 3: Jesus came by and he called him, and he said, 115 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 3: come be my disciple. I'll make you fishers of men, 116 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 3: and Peter got out of the boat, and he followed 117 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 3: this radical man named. 118 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: Jesus for three years. 119 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 3: He watched lame legs be healed, he watched blind eyes 120 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 3: be opened. 121 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: He watched miracle after miracle. He watched Lazarus. He was there. 122 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: This is not a story. He was told. 123 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 3: He was physically there when Lazarus came out of his 124 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 3: grave after. 125 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: Being dead for days. 126 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 3: He saw the miracles, he saw demon's cower. And God 127 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 3: said to Jesus, said to him, who do you say 128 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 3: that I am? His name was Simon. And Peter said, 129 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 3: I say that you're the son of God. And when 130 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 3: he did that, Jesus then put a call on his life. 131 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 3: He said, your name will no longer be Simon. It 132 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 3: will be Peter, and you shall be the rock that 133 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 3: I build my church upon, and the gates of hell 134 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 3: shall not prevail against it. His call was then placed 135 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 3: on Peter's life. But then comes the last upper. 136 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: And the death and crucifixion of Jesus. Jesus tells Peter. 137 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 3: You're going to betray me three times tonight before the 138 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 3: rooster crows. You will deny me, you will disown me. 139 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 3: Some versions of the Bible. 140 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: Say he had become close with Jesus three years. 141 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 3: Peter says, I would rather die than disown you. I'll 142 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 3: die with you before I disown you. But even after 143 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 3: being warned, and you can sit in church services like 144 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 3: this or like we have every week and being told 145 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 3: about the stickiness of sin that so easily ensnares us. 146 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: But just like Peter, he still went that night. 147 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 3: And the Book of John tells us over a campfire 148 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 3: three times he disowned Jesus in his moment of need. 149 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 3: He denied him, He turned his back on him. And 150 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 3: what does Peter do? The Bible says that Peter goes 151 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 3: back to what God called him out of. He tried 152 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 3: to go back to being a fisherman. But I've got 153 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 3: good news. In Roman's eleven, the Bible says. 154 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: The call of God is irrevocable. 155 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 3: It cannot be removed, it cannot be displaced, it cannot 156 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:23,560 Speaker 3: be taken from you. The Message version of the Bible 157 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 3: says this, God's gifts and God's call are under full warranty, 158 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 3: never canceled, never rescinded. In fact, a lot of you 159 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 3: feel like you've made so many mistakes, and at one 160 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 3: point you were running. 161 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 1: A good race. You were steady, you had your. 162 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 3: Runners high, you were going, you were serving, you were 163 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 3: believing God. 164 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: But maybe you cut in on you. 165 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 3: You thought that you disqualified yourself because you made a mistake, 166 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 3: because you had been set free from that addiction. But 167 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 3: you had to relapse, and now you're a failure. But 168 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 3: your failure is not final. Your problem is not the 169 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 3: source of your purpose. 170 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 1: Today. God's calling on you is irrevocable, and who he 171 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 1: calls he qualifies. 172 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 3: Some of you feel like you've disqualified yourself from the 173 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 3: call of God on your life. 174 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: But I've got. 175 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 3: News, and it's great news, and it will take a 176 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:23,959 Speaker 3: weight off your shoulders. 177 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: You can't disqualify what you never qualified. 178 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 3: In the first place. It is only by the blood 179 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 3: of Jesus that we are saved. It is only by 180 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,320 Speaker 3: the blood of Jesus that we are redeemed. That's the 181 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 3: whole point of this book. It's not about our filthy rags. 182 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 3: It's not about our works and what we do. It 183 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 3: is not about you trying to force a seat at 184 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 3: the table. He's purchased your seat at the table and 185 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 3: he's saving it for you. God will make a way 186 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 3: when there's no way. I can promise you that The 187 00:10:56,320 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 3: Bible tells us that Peter went back to fishing. He 188 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 3: had cut in on himself, he had disqualified himself. But 189 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 3: then he sees Jesus' post resurrection, he sees Jesus' risen 190 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 3: from the grave, like he told them over and over 191 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 3: he would do. The Bible says that he jumps out 192 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 3: of a boat because he's so desperate to get to 193 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 3: the shore. And I can't help but imagine the pain 194 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 3: and the mental battle that he was struggling in this moment. 195 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 3: The last time he would have gotten out of a 196 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 3: boat to move towards Jesus would have been when he 197 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 3: walked on water. But now he's failed. Now he's disqualified himself. 198 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 1: Now he's gone back. He's not a disciple, he's a fisherman. 199 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: He's not a success. He's a failure. 200 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 3: But the Bible says that he jumped out of the 201 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 3: boat and went running towards his Jesus. And what was 202 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 3: Jesus doing. The Bible's us in Isaiah that he shall be. 203 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 1: Called wonderful counselor. 204 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 3: He cares about our mental health, he cares about our. 205 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 1: Therapy and being there. 206 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 3: He is the wonderful Counselor and our kind Jesus is 207 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,719 Speaker 3: sitting on the shore and what is he doing? When 208 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 3: Peter jumps out of the boat and he's soaked and 209 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 3: he's frantic, and he's running to Jesus. 210 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: He falls down on the beach. 211 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 3: And does Jesus beate him or put him down or 212 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 3: tell him I told you so. 213 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 1: No, He reinstates him over a fire. 214 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 3: You can't tell me that God is not in the 215 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 3: business of redemptive and reparative therapy. He's stood over a fire. 216 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 3: Jesus is making a fire, making him some food. Peter 217 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 3: gets there. Can you imagine what a failure he must 218 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 3: have felt like? 219 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 1: And he looks at Jesus over the. 220 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 3: Same fire that probably would have brought PTS. Steve flashbacks 221 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 3: of the moments that he denied Christ when he needed 222 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:08,599 Speaker 3: him most. And Jesus simply says this, Do you love me? 223 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 1: Do you love me? Three times? Do you love me? 224 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 3: And the wonderful Counselor says, then feed my sheep. My 225 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 3: calling is irrevocable. It cannot be removed. And I don't 226 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,679 Speaker 3: care who's cut in on you. What I've called you 227 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 3: to do is according to my purpose and my plan 228 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 3: for your life. And nothing can shrump that, nothing can 229 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 3: stop that. I'm convinced today that maybe you're in this 230 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 3: room and you feel like a failure, but I am 231 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 3: here to convince you you will take no other view. 232 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 3: God has called you, he has not thrown you out. 233 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 3: He's not finished with you yet. There's redemption, there's freedom, 234 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 3: there's salvation. If you've fallen off track, then get back up, 235 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 3: lace your tennis shoes on, and. 236 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 1: Get ready to go. But because we've got a race to. 237 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 3: Run, and it doesn't have to look pretty, and you 238 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 3: don't have to be a great runner. You can be 239 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 3: heaving sometimes, but you've got to keep running. You've got 240 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 3: to keep moving, You've got to keep pressing towards the prize. 241 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 3: That's what He's called us to do. I'm convinced today 242 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 3: that you'll take no other view. I think about a 243 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 3: woman named Naomi. In the Bible. We read in the 244 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 3: Book of Ruth that Naomi and her husband, her husband 245 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 3: had two sons, and in a short amount of time, 246 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 3: she lost her husband and she lost her two sons. 247 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: She was left with nothing except. 248 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 3: For a daughter in law who wouldn't leave her side. 249 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 3: The Bible says that her and Ruth went back to Bethlehem, 250 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 3: the place that she was from, and Ruth one and 251 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 3: twenty says, this, don't call me Naomi. She told them 252 00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 3: call me Mara, because the all my has made my 253 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 3: life very bitter. I went away fool, but the Lord 254 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 3: has brought me back empty. 255 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: Why call me Naomi? 256 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 3: The Lord has afflicted me, The Almighty has brought misfortune 257 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 3: upon me. Given her current circumstances, Naomi thinks bitter. That's 258 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 3: what Mara means, is bitter. Given Naomi's current circumstances, Naomi, 259 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 3: her name means pleasant. She said, don't call me pleasant, 260 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 3: call me bitter. That's what Mara means in Hebrew. She 261 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 3: was mad at God. Naomi attributed the loss of her 262 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 3: husband and sons to God. The words she uses in 263 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 3: Hebrew to describe God here means to bring calamity. It's 264 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 3: often used when someone accuses God of unjustly doing harm. 265 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 3: Like Job, Naomi felt that God had become her enemy. However, 266 00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,120 Speaker 3: just as with Job, Naomi's tragedy was part of a 267 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 3: larger series of events that would result in God's blessing. 268 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 3: Because we see in chapter four that the women said 269 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 3: to Naomi, Blessed be Yahweh, who told who today did 270 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 3: not leave you without a redeemer, And may his name 271 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 3: be renowned in Israel. He shall be for you a 272 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 3: restore of life and a sustainer in your old age. 273 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 3: Maybe you came in here today and like Naomi, life 274 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 3: has gone from pleasant to bitter. 275 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 2: Hello, I'm Jensen Franklin, and I want to welcome you 276 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 2: to Real America's Voice. There's something that's gonna happen. I 277 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 2: believe as you watch this program, lean in, listen, and 278 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 2: let's see what God can do in your life. 279 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 3: The bitterness of life has cut in on you and 280 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 3: made you believe that God is against you, that he's 281 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:03,120 Speaker 3: not for you, that He is the author of the 282 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 3: confusion that's taking place, that He is the author of 283 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 3: that diagnosis that you can't just seem to get over. 284 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 3: But I'm here to tell you that you will take 285 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 3: no other view. That Naomi, maybe in the pain of 286 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 3: what she was facing and seeing, she felt God was 287 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 3: against her, But she knew by the end of the 288 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 3: story that El Shadai, God Almighty had her that Jehovah 289 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:33,400 Speaker 3: Jirah would always provide every single one of her needs 290 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,120 Speaker 3: that Jehovah Shama is the God who is here. He's 291 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 3: with us, and he sees us. He's a present help 292 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 3: and time of trouble. I think about in our own family, 293 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 3: the day after Easter, this mountaintop moment for us. My 294 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 3: uncle Jean went missing, had dementia, and God in the 295 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,120 Speaker 3: car and left, and as a family. 296 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,360 Speaker 1: We all showed up to search through. 297 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 3: The mountains to look for him. And for nine days 298 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 3: we had not one lead, we had silence, We had 299 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 3: what looked like the cutting in of life of man. 300 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 1: This is a godly man. 301 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 3: We are a family that serves the Lord, that's given everything, 302 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 3: and we have no answers, we have nothing. My aunt 303 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:29,640 Speaker 3: Margaret has been married to my uncle Jean for fifty 304 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:35,640 Speaker 3: eight years and just in a moment, no goodbye, nothing, 305 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:42,360 Speaker 3: He's gone. How do you not let those moments cut 306 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 3: in on you? I think I learned quite a lesson 307 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 3: from my family this week is when you don't know 308 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 3: what to do when life cuts in on you. We 309 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 3: cling to the everlasting arms of Jesus, and we stood 310 00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 3: a week ago today out here as we were rolling 311 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,639 Speaker 3: his casket, because thank you Jesus, we were able to 312 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 3: find his body. He's gone on to be with the Lord. 313 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:12,160 Speaker 3: He's in heaven worshiping his Jesus. And when they told 314 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,679 Speaker 3: my aunt Margaret, she wept, but then she started speaking 315 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 3: in tongues and thanking God for his faithfulness, for his goodness, 316 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 3: and for his stability and sovereignty of who he is. 317 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 3: She stood out here before we rolled the casket in, 318 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 3: and she said, today we are not going to sit 319 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 3: here and grieve and be depressed and be sad. We're 320 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,679 Speaker 3: gonna join in with what Jane is doing in heaven 321 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 3: and all those who have gone before him. 322 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 1: And we're gonna. 323 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 3: Worship Jesus because he's worthy to be praised. In spite 324 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 3: of our present circumstances. He's still a good God. He's 325 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,399 Speaker 3: still for us. His goodness and his mercy is still 326 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 3: chasing after us all the days of our life. And 327 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 3: I watched as she sat down here with arms lifted high, 328 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 3: as sons my uncle sat down here with their arms 329 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:08,159 Speaker 3: lifted high, worshiping Jesus. I said, well, one of the 330 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 3: sons said, we'll never get a goodbye with our dad, 331 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 3: but thank you Jesus for a hello that's coming soon. 332 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 3: And when life's disappointment and bitterness, and despite the circumstances 333 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 3: that you're facing, when life cuts in on you, when 334 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 3: unexpected flipping of your world comes in, when the accident 335 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 3: happens and that loved one is gone and you never 336 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 3: saw it coming, When that cancer diagnosis is a death 337 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 3: sentence and you've never saw it coming. 338 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 1: That can cut in on you. But I am certain. 339 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 3: Today that you will take no other view. I'm confident 340 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,879 Speaker 3: that you will see the goodness of God in the 341 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 3: land of the living today. And when we begin to 342 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,160 Speaker 3: not know what else to do, when we're in our 343 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 3: down and out season, that is when you lift up 344 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,719 Speaker 3: your hands and you say, I exalt thee. 345 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 1: I don't know what else to do other than to 346 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 1: say this. 347 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 3: I don't get it, I don't see it, I don't understand. 348 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 1: But I know my way maker is here. I know 349 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: my healer is here. 350 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 3: I know the God who sees me has his eye 351 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 3: on me today. I don't know your circumstance, but he does, 352 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 3: he sees you. 353 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: He's with you. 354 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 3: I am convinced you will take no other view. The 355 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 3: Bible tells us about a woman named Hannah. Maybe you 356 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 3: find yourself in the place of Hannah in the Bible 357 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 3: Versus Samuel tells. 358 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:36,680 Speaker 1: Us that she was barren. 359 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 3: And she desired more than anything to have children, and 360 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 3: her rival Panina kept provoking her. 361 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 1: She would say, you're worthless. See you don't have children. 362 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:49,199 Speaker 1: You can't do it. 363 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 3: You don't have any value. Your husband only keeps you 364 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 3: here because he has to. And you can't even do 365 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:58,360 Speaker 3: what we're supposed to be put on. 366 00:21:58,320 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: This earth to do. You you can't have it. She 367 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 1: would provoke her, the Bible says. 368 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 3: And Panina continued to berate and antagonize her, and the 369 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:10,159 Speaker 3: Bible says that she was covered with shame, that she 370 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 3: was in agrony, and she wept bitterly. But Hannah, being 371 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 3: cut in on, did something that we have no understanding 372 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 3: that any other woman in the Old Testament did this, 373 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 3: the Bible says in verse nine, Hannah got up and 374 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 3: she went directly to the temple of God and to 375 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 3: the altar, and she was bringing her heartache and her 376 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 3: pain and her disappointment to the altar. 377 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,360 Speaker 1: Eli was there, the prophet. 378 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,360 Speaker 3: She ignored him because she said, I don't need some 379 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 3: kind of. 380 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: Filter to get to my God. 381 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 3: I need an altar, I need a place where he 382 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 3: can minister like only he can. I don't need a preacher. 383 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,159 Speaker 3: I don't need a teacher. I don't even need a 384 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 3: worship song. And what she did was she began to 385 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 3: pray and cry and weep. The Bible tells us something 386 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 3: so beautiful. Well, not this part, but after this Eli 387 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 3: thought she was drunk. The Bible says, her lips mood, 388 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 3: but her voice was not heard. God seeks those tears 389 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 3: which are shed not for display, but in doubt, those 390 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:24,360 Speaker 3: tears that trickle down secretly, in closets and not in 391 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 3: sight of any person, silently, noiselessly, when. 392 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 1: You've lost baby after baby after baby. 393 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 3: When you don't have any words left to say, because 394 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 3: all you have are tears. 395 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:44,400 Speaker 1: Those tears shed in anguish and in sorrow, those are 396 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: for God alone. Those were Hannah's tears. 397 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 3: Her tears alone uttered a cry more than clear than 398 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 3: any shout. 399 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,880 Speaker 1: And because of this, the Bible says, God. 400 00:23:55,720 --> 00:24:01,439 Speaker 3: Opened her womb and the hard rock became a fruitful field. 401 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: God hears the cry of your tears. 402 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 3: Running your race doesn't always look pretty, but I can 403 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:11,639 Speaker 3: tell you there's an altar, and we run to the 404 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:15,400 Speaker 3: House of God. In times of trouble. Our unanswered prayers 405 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 3: might go unanswered. But when we don't have answers, he 406 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 3: always gives more of himself because he's a god who 407 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 3: dwells in deep darkness. According to Exodus, he's a god 408 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 3: who is near to the broken hearted. He's a god 409 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 3: who binds up picks up those who are broken inside. 410 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 3: And I am convinced that it's time for some bear 411 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 3: and women to sing out to praise the risen King, 412 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 3: who is your healer, who is your sustainer. And if 413 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 3: the prayer is never answered, he is still good. He 414 00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 3: is still with you, He still has a divine purpose 415 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 3: for your life. Not for one second have you been overlooked. 416 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 3: The Bible tells us about Joseph. Joseph didn't have a 417 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 3: circumstance cut in on him. 418 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 1: Well, he had several. 419 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 3: Circumstances, but he had actual people who cut in on him. 420 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 3: Those people were his family. The Bible says in Genesis 421 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:26,680 Speaker 3: thirty seven to four. They hated him, his brothers, they 422 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 3: couldn't speak a kind word to him. They devised a 423 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 3: plan to kill him. They threw him in a pit. 424 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 3: They ended up selling him into slavery. Maybe your family 425 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 3: didn't sell you into physical slavery. But maybe they cut 426 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 3: in on you with substance abuse or physical abuse as 427 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:53,880 Speaker 3: a child. Maybe that abuse, that molestation, that rate took place, 428 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 3: and it altered the direction. 429 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 1: It threw you. 430 00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,919 Speaker 3: Off course and created confusion in your mind. 431 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 1: But I'm convinced today that you'll take no other view. 432 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 3: That he's the God in the pit, and he's the 433 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 3: God in the mountain, that he's the god in freedom, 434 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 3: and he's the god when we're enslaved too. He's good, 435 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 3: he's faithful to bring everything together, everything everything. This is 436 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 3: not a book that's not full of real life. He 437 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 3: sees what we all face. Maybe your father cut in 438 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,160 Speaker 3: on you. God still has a plan. Maybe your mother 439 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 3: was the opposite of everything that we're celebrating today because 440 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 3: she never got healing from her own trauma and on 441 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 3: issues that she dealt with as a child, and maybe 442 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 3: instead of her building you up, she broke you. I'm 443 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 3: here today to tell you he's a father to the 444 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 3: fatherless and a mother to the motherless, that he's never 445 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 3: forsaken you, that he's never taken his eye off of you. 446 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:02,120 Speaker 3: He will supply and sustein say in every need that 447 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 3: you have. You don't have to have had a good 448 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 3: mother in order to be a good mother. 449 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 1: You can start now. You can break those chains now, 450 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:14,920 Speaker 1: in the name of Jesus. 451 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 3: Some of you are in this room today and you've 452 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 3: never heard I love you by a father or a mother. 453 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: This is not from the one who calls you. 454 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 3: You are lovable, You are loved, You are enough. You 455 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,919 Speaker 3: are good, not because of anything that you do, but 456 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 3: because of everything. 457 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 1: That He's done. 458 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 3: And the more you learn and lean into that, the 459 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 3: freer you become, knowing that he is our kinsman, redeemer, 460 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 3: that he sustains. 461 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:46,160 Speaker 1: Us, that he heals us, that he saves us, that he. 462 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 3: Atones for every single fourth shortcoming and situation in our life. 463 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 1: He's a good God, and he loves you. You don't 464 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 1: hear anything else I say today. 465 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,399 Speaker 3: He loves you. Doesn't matter if your mama or your 466 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 3: daddy didn't. He loves you. Joseph had every reason to 467 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 3: be bitter and be angry. 468 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 1: Then he goes into. 469 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 3: Potiphar's house after he's sold into slavery, and he's lied 470 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 3: and accused of doing something that he didn't do, and 471 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,679 Speaker 3: he's thrown into prison. He spends at least two years 472 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 3: in prison. But God held on to him. In that 473 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 3: pit that his brothers threw him in, he held on 474 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 3: to God, and the place that he was sold into slavery. 475 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 1: He held on to God. 476 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 3: When he was thrown into prison on false accusations. He 477 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 3: held on to God, and God showed him grace and 478 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 3: delivered him and promoted him to the second highest place. 479 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 1: In all of Egypt. 480 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,400 Speaker 3: Genesis forty one fifty one says Joseph named his firstborn 481 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 3: son Manassah and said, it's because God has made me 482 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 3: forget all my trouble. 483 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 1: Whoo. 484 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 3: That's a good God, forget all my trouble and all 485 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 3: my father's household. And then Joseph, who had been cut 486 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 3: in on in every way, said, you know what, I'm 487 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 3: not gonna just stop with my first born son, my 488 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 3: second born son. I'm also gonna declare the goodness of 489 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 3: God in his name. He said, I'm gonna name him Ephraim. 490 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 3: And it will be because God has made me fruitful 491 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 3: in the land of my suffering. God can make you 492 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 3: fruitful in suffering and forgetful and trouble. Because of Joseph 493 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 3: was able to continue. He ran his race well, Genesis 494 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 3: fifty says, don't be afraid. 495 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 1: He's talking to his brothers after his father's dead. He 496 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 1: was able. You gotta go read it.
