WEBVTT - Trust God. He’s Got This (The Basin)

0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:04.360
<v Speaker 1>Hey, I'm coming to you now from the basin. This

0:00:04.400 --> 0:00:05.880
<v Speaker 1>is a special.

0:00:05.680 --> 0:00:09.720
<v Speaker 2>Bonus teaching that I recorded just for you to break

0:00:09.760 --> 0:00:12.560
<v Speaker 2>it down a little more, to take it a little deeper.

0:00:13.039 --> 0:00:15.960
<v Speaker 1>I hope you enjoyed this overflow message. Let me know,

0:00:16.600 --> 0:00:17.040
<v Speaker 1>let's go.

0:00:21.920 --> 0:00:26.040
<v Speaker 2>The enemy loves to keep us stuck in a space

0:00:27.160 --> 0:00:32.879
<v Speaker 2>where we are frozen in what we don't know. You

0:00:32.920 --> 0:00:38.519
<v Speaker 2>feel me frozen in what we don't know, because then

0:00:38.560 --> 0:00:43.720
<v Speaker 2>if we're frozen writing it down in what we don't know,

0:00:48.680 --> 0:00:53.760
<v Speaker 2>we don't go forward. We don't go forward and learn

0:00:54.280 --> 0:00:57.160
<v Speaker 2>because we're frozen. I don't know well learn now Here

0:00:57.200 --> 0:01:01.360
<v Speaker 2>comes the second part of this confession, say I know

0:01:01.400 --> 0:01:02.000
<v Speaker 2>when I need to.

0:01:03.360 --> 0:01:05.120
<v Speaker 1>Not only does that mean that God.

0:01:04.959 --> 0:01:09.080
<v Speaker 2>Reveals things in his timing, according to his schedule, not

0:01:09.120 --> 0:01:15.400
<v Speaker 2>always ours, but it also means that sometimes we don't

0:01:15.520 --> 0:01:19.120
<v Speaker 2>know what we need to know because we haven't gotten

0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:23.960
<v Speaker 2>desperate to know it yet. There are certain books you

0:01:24.000 --> 0:01:29.520
<v Speaker 2>won't read until you've experienced a brokenness that makes you

0:01:30.200 --> 0:01:31.720
<v Speaker 2>need to read them.

0:01:33.120 --> 0:01:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:01:34.319 --> 0:01:37.440
<v Speaker 2>I had books on my shelf that when I was

0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:40.360
<v Speaker 2>going through a certain challenge in my life, I had

0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:43.840
<v Speaker 2>to dig around for them because when I got the books,

0:01:45.040 --> 0:01:46.000
<v Speaker 2>they were nice.

0:01:46.400 --> 0:01:49.440
<v Speaker 1>Nice book, nice cover, nice jacket, nice title, nice subtitle.

0:01:50.600 --> 0:01:55.120
<v Speaker 1>When I needed them, I dug for them. And when

0:01:55.120 --> 0:01:55.720
<v Speaker 1>I say.

0:01:57.520 --> 0:02:01.880
<v Speaker 2>I'll know when I need to, I mean that sometimes

0:02:01.920 --> 0:02:07.280
<v Speaker 2>we haven't really reached the level where we're reaching for

0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:10.480
<v Speaker 2>the answers because we haven't hit the thing in our

0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:12.320
<v Speaker 2>life yet that makes us go oh, I got to

0:02:12.320 --> 0:02:13.040
<v Speaker 2>get this one.

0:02:12.880 --> 0:02:16.080
<v Speaker 1>Right, you know. I was telling a group of leaders

0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:17.520
<v Speaker 1>this week that I was.

0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:19.680
<v Speaker 2>Privileged to spend an entire day with, and most of

0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:22.720
<v Speaker 2>them were pastors of churches from different parts of the

0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:24.160
<v Speaker 2>country and different parts of the world, and it was

0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:25.560
<v Speaker 2>a very small group, so I was able to be

0:02:25.720 --> 0:02:28.880
<v Speaker 2>very personal, very specific with them. And one of the

0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:32.400
<v Speaker 2>things that I shared with them that really really really

0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:36.920
<v Speaker 2>was heavy in my heart to say to them is.

0:02:38.400 --> 0:02:42.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, I don't I don't really.

0:02:43.720 --> 0:02:47.560
<v Speaker 2>Think that in certain seasons of my life I was

0:02:47.720 --> 0:02:51.720
<v Speaker 2>ready yet for certain things that God wanted to show me,

0:02:53.080 --> 0:02:59.160
<v Speaker 2>and until I was ready, God couldn't say yes. I

0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:02.920
<v Speaker 2>was stuck in that yes but not yet phase. And

0:03:03.440 --> 0:03:04.840
<v Speaker 2>I hope you can hear this when I say it,

0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:08.840
<v Speaker 2>because we all have certain things that we encounter in

0:03:08.880 --> 0:03:12.640
<v Speaker 2>our life that make us go oh no. I don't

0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:16.240
<v Speaker 2>know how to do this, Like I don't know how

0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:17.920
<v Speaker 2>to be a good husband. I don't know how to

0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:19.960
<v Speaker 2>do midlife. And oh, I remember what I was going

0:03:20.000 --> 0:03:21.400
<v Speaker 2>to tell you. I got a little I got a

0:03:21.440 --> 0:03:24.160
<v Speaker 2>little sidetracked thinking about the meeting that I had with

0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:28.280
<v Speaker 2>the pastors. But I was telling them how something about

0:03:28.320 --> 0:03:32.480
<v Speaker 2>the ages of my kids right now twelve, fifteen, seventeen,

0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:36.040
<v Speaker 2>that age in them is making me confront some things

0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:40.080
<v Speaker 2>in me because I've got to win in some certain areas.

0:03:40.160 --> 0:03:43.520
<v Speaker 1>Like I didn't really get serious.

0:03:43.600 --> 0:03:49.560
<v Speaker 2>About my self talk, myself talk until I saw in

0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:52.600
<v Speaker 2>my own kids some of the things that they were

0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:55.880
<v Speaker 2>saying about themselves and to themselves and processing.

0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:58.840
<v Speaker 1>And when I saw that, it became a mirror for me.

0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:01.560
<v Speaker 2>Last week, I talked about the mirror of the Word

0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:03.440
<v Speaker 2>of God, how the Word of God is like a

0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:05.160
<v Speaker 2>mirror the perfect law that gives freedom.

0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:06.680
<v Speaker 1>I didn't spend a long time.

0:04:06.480 --> 0:04:09.760
<v Speaker 2>There, but I did talk about how a mirror actually

0:04:09.800 --> 0:04:15.560
<v Speaker 2>projects the image back in reverse. So I could have

0:04:15.600 --> 0:04:17.400
<v Speaker 2>taken more time with this in the sermon, But I

0:04:17.480 --> 0:04:23.080
<v Speaker 2>was wearing a hoodie that says can you imagine on it?

0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:26.520
<v Speaker 2>From our new album, But it says it backwards on

0:04:26.600 --> 0:04:29.000
<v Speaker 2>the hoodie, so that when you look at it in

0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:32.040
<v Speaker 2>the mirror, it puts it back. You know, the light

0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:36.320
<v Speaker 2>off of the mirror, it reflects back correctly. And so

0:04:36.360 --> 0:04:39.920
<v Speaker 2>the shirt is backwards and the mirror shows me correctly.

0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:43.120
<v Speaker 2>And I think that God's word is like that, where

0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:47.280
<v Speaker 2>a lot of the things that we believe are backwards,

0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:50.880
<v Speaker 2>and God's Word is that mirror that shows us.

0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:54.599
<v Speaker 1>No, you think that you know that.

0:04:56.600 --> 0:05:02.520
<v Speaker 2>Your human accomplishments and human achievements are the thing that

0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:06.520
<v Speaker 2>bring fulfillment, But no, those things are great and fine,

0:05:06.640 --> 0:05:10.120
<v Speaker 2>and they come from God too. But the real gift,

0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:14.800
<v Speaker 2>the real gift of fulfillment, is found in service and

0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:18.800
<v Speaker 2>connection and flowing in what you're supposed to do.

0:05:18.960 --> 0:05:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Right. So I didn't really.

0:05:24.440 --> 0:05:28.640
<v Speaker 2>I didn't really see certain things in myself and get

0:05:28.760 --> 0:05:31.880
<v Speaker 2>self aware until I needed to.

0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:35.000
<v Speaker 1>And the reason I needed to is because.

0:05:36.240 --> 0:05:38.719
<v Speaker 2>I'm looking at my kids and I love them more

0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:42.560
<v Speaker 2>than anybody else in the world except Holly. And I

0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:44.280
<v Speaker 2>do love Holly more than I love them, and they

0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:48.560
<v Speaker 2>know that. But next to Holly, they're They're the people

0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:51.560
<v Speaker 2>in the world that I love the most. And in

0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:59.680
<v Speaker 2>saying that I love them enough to confront me. So

0:05:59.880 --> 0:06:02.360
<v Speaker 2>it's been in the last few years that I've done

0:06:02.360 --> 0:06:05.280
<v Speaker 2>a lot of my growth, because man, I need to

0:06:05.320 --> 0:06:07.479
<v Speaker 2>know how to tell my son, here's how you deal

0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:11.359
<v Speaker 2>with these feelings that rise up in you, because I

0:06:11.360 --> 0:06:15.320
<v Speaker 2>have them too, and I almost was willing to put

0:06:15.360 --> 0:06:19.599
<v Speaker 2>up with them and myself until I saw them in

0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:22.880
<v Speaker 2>my kids and I said, Okay, we've got to uproot

0:06:22.920 --> 0:06:24.360
<v Speaker 2>this and it starts with my heart.

0:06:25.120 --> 0:06:27.640
<v Speaker 1>So say it again. I'll know when I need to

0:06:29.120 --> 0:06:29.960
<v Speaker 1>when I need to.

0:06:31.440 --> 0:06:33.279
<v Speaker 2>If you're not in the Word of God and you

0:06:33.320 --> 0:06:34.839
<v Speaker 2>say like, well, I don't really know scripture.

0:06:34.839 --> 0:06:37.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't read scripture, then you haven't.

0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:41.640
<v Speaker 2>You haven't become aware enough yet of your need for scripture.

0:06:43.680 --> 0:06:44.000
<v Speaker 1>That's what.

0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:46.120
<v Speaker 2>Blessed are the poor and spirit for theirs the Kingdom

0:06:46.160 --> 0:06:48.880
<v Speaker 2>of Heaven. Blessed those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,

0:06:48.880 --> 0:06:52.240
<v Speaker 2>for they will be filled when you get hungry enough.

0:06:53.360 --> 0:06:57.760
<v Speaker 2>When you get hungry enough. Now, I need somebody who

0:06:57.839 --> 0:07:01.520
<v Speaker 2>really wants God to show you what he can do

0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:04.000
<v Speaker 2>and what he has for you, and what he wants

0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:06.440
<v Speaker 2>you to do. I want you to say, I'm hungry enough.

0:07:07.960 --> 0:07:13.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm hungry enough. I'm thirsty enough. Blessed are those who

0:07:13.960 --> 0:07:18.320
<v Speaker 2>hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.

0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:22.880
<v Speaker 2>This is Pentecost Sunday we're talking about right. Well, on

0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:27.600
<v Speaker 2>the day of Pentecost, the Spirit of God came and

0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:32.160
<v Speaker 2>it suddenly filled the room. Well, they didn't know when

0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:35.720
<v Speaker 2>the Holy Spirit was coming. They needed the Holy Spirit,

0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:38.760
<v Speaker 2>and so they sought God and they were all together.

0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:46.640
<v Speaker 1>Let's look at this scripture Acts chapter two.

0:07:46.800 --> 0:07:49.960
<v Speaker 2>When the day of Pentecost had fully come, they were

0:07:50.120 --> 0:07:54.040
<v Speaker 2>all with one accord, in one place seeking God. Watch

0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:57.920
<v Speaker 2>and suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of

0:07:58.120 --> 0:08:00.240
<v Speaker 2>a rushing, mighty wind, and it filled.

0:08:00.440 --> 0:08:04.800
<v Speaker 1>The whole house where they were sitting. So watch this.

0:08:05.440 --> 0:08:10.320
<v Speaker 2>They are sitting there and they don't know when this

0:08:10.400 --> 0:08:14.160
<v Speaker 2>promised Holy Spirit is going to come, and it comes

0:08:14.200 --> 0:08:22.520
<v Speaker 2>suddenly to the place where they were sitting. It comes suddenly. Now,

0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:26.360
<v Speaker 2>that's the beautiful thing about God is that his blessings

0:08:26.440 --> 0:08:34.320
<v Speaker 2>come suddenly, but his hand moves steadily. Say that out loud,

0:08:34.600 --> 0:08:41.960
<v Speaker 2>his blessings come suddenly, but his hand moves steadily.

0:08:43.120 --> 0:08:46.520
<v Speaker 1>What am I trying to say. I'm not trying to

0:08:46.559 --> 0:08:47.360
<v Speaker 1>say it. I'm saying it.

0:08:47.559 --> 0:08:50.480
<v Speaker 2>His blessings come suddenly, but his hand moves steadily, which

0:08:50.520 --> 0:08:55.080
<v Speaker 2>means that behind the scenes, even when I'm not experiencing

0:08:55.520 --> 0:09:00.520
<v Speaker 2>this sudden blessing like oh, a promotion, boom, an idea, wow,

0:09:00.600 --> 0:09:05.680
<v Speaker 2>a relationship, now a phone call, now a breakthrough, now

0:09:05.720 --> 0:09:11.160
<v Speaker 2>a new dimension of God's glory, now a horizon. While

0:09:11.160 --> 0:09:13.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm not experiencing all of those things all the time,

0:09:14.040 --> 0:09:22.839
<v Speaker 2>Suddenly his hand is moving steadily. Let's go from Acts

0:09:22.920 --> 0:09:31.040
<v Speaker 2>chapter two into second Games three. Somebody say, all of

0:09:31.040 --> 0:09:35.080
<v Speaker 2>a sudden, that's how God does it. All of a sudden,

0:09:35.280 --> 0:09:38.360
<v Speaker 2>when you see him move, You're like, what, how that happen?

0:09:38.400 --> 0:09:40.400
<v Speaker 2>How many of you have ever happened had a moment

0:09:40.400 --> 0:09:42.839
<v Speaker 2>in your life where you said, how'd that happen? Like

0:09:43.080 --> 0:09:47.280
<v Speaker 2>you watched a turnaround, like something that you thought wasn't

0:09:47.280 --> 0:09:49.240
<v Speaker 2>gonna change, and then all of a sudden it changed,

0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:51.560
<v Speaker 2>and then all of a sudden it does. And I'm

0:09:51.679 --> 0:09:53.600
<v Speaker 2>never gonna and all of a sudden you do, and

0:09:53.640 --> 0:09:58.679
<v Speaker 2>it's just like an amazing, amazing thing. Say suddenly say

0:09:58.679 --> 0:10:02.240
<v Speaker 2>it again, Say suddenly, look at your neighbor and scare them,

0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:07.439
<v Speaker 2>Say suddenly put it in the chat, say suddenly, Wow,

0:10:07.720 --> 0:10:08.600
<v Speaker 2>Well look.

0:10:08.480 --> 0:10:09.320
<v Speaker 1>At this passage.

0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:12.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna tell you a little story from Second Kings,

0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:17.800
<v Speaker 2>Chapter three, one of my favorites, where the three kings

0:10:17.840 --> 0:10:22.400
<v Speaker 2>got together, not the three wise men, the three different kings. Jehosha,

0:10:22.800 --> 0:10:27.320
<v Speaker 2>king of Judah, Joram, who was over the Northern Kingdom

0:10:27.320 --> 0:10:31.680
<v Speaker 2>of Israel. Not a good king. He had bad parents.

0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:36.160
<v Speaker 2>Ahab and Jezebel have died, and they left Joram to lead.

0:10:36.240 --> 0:10:40.880
<v Speaker 2>He was terrible. And then you've got the king of

0:10:41.920 --> 0:10:47.640
<v Speaker 2>Moab and he's rebelling. And so the watch this. I'll

0:10:47.640 --> 0:10:50.839
<v Speaker 2>give it to you real quick. Somebody say, suddenly, the

0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:59.920
<v Speaker 2>king Jehoshaphat and the king of the Northern Kingdom Jehora,

0:11:00.559 --> 0:11:01.480
<v Speaker 2>Did I say, Johoram?

0:11:01.559 --> 0:11:03.959
<v Speaker 1>Or did I say? I might have said it wrong,

0:11:04.480 --> 0:11:07.280
<v Speaker 1>but you could correct me later, all right.

0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:14.640
<v Speaker 2>And so they went together, and they got together and

0:11:14.720 --> 0:11:20.160
<v Speaker 2>they start marching around, and they're marching around for seven

0:11:20.240 --> 0:11:22.920
<v Speaker 2>days and they run out of water.

0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:24.319
<v Speaker 3>And.

0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:32.720
<v Speaker 2>They're basically getting ready to attack Moab. And as they

0:11:32.760 --> 0:11:38.640
<v Speaker 2>get ready to attack Moab, they get thirsty and they're about.

0:11:38.360 --> 0:11:43.440
<v Speaker 1>To die for lack of water on their way to

0:11:43.720 --> 0:11:44.280
<v Speaker 1>a war.

0:11:44.840 --> 0:11:49.920
<v Speaker 2>Now, I'm gonna pause here. Sometimes on your way to

0:11:50.120 --> 0:11:52.120
<v Speaker 2>a war, you run.

0:11:51.960 --> 0:11:53.520
<v Speaker 1>Out of water.

0:11:55.280 --> 0:11:58.480
<v Speaker 2>They were going, let me break this down. They were

0:11:58.520 --> 0:12:07.440
<v Speaker 2>going to wage war. Are you writing this down? You

0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:10.760
<v Speaker 2>got to write some of this down, because sometimes you

0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:14.720
<v Speaker 2>are going to wage a war. You're going to a meeting,

0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:19.000
<v Speaker 2>and before the meeting something happens with the car, or

0:12:19.160 --> 0:12:23.160
<v Speaker 2>you're going to have a tough conversation, and before the

0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:27.240
<v Speaker 2>tough conversation comes bad news, and in those moments, your

0:12:27.320 --> 0:12:33.000
<v Speaker 2>strength can feel completely drained. Now, Holly talked about this

0:12:33.040 --> 0:12:37.880
<v Speaker 2>a few weeks ago, how you need sudden strength, and

0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:42.560
<v Speaker 2>we were praying this prayer. I breathe you in Holy Spirit,

0:12:44.800 --> 0:12:51.080
<v Speaker 2>and your strength comes suddenly, somebody says, suddenly, and your

0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:57.600
<v Speaker 2>peace fills me completely. Well, that's from prayer that God

0:12:57.679 --> 0:13:02.400
<v Speaker 2>gave me to to recognize the Holy Spirit in my

0:13:02.480 --> 0:13:05.960
<v Speaker 2>own life, because I noticed there were so many moments

0:13:06.640 --> 0:13:10.880
<v Speaker 2>where I needed God's strength. Right now, I need it now.

0:13:12.400 --> 0:13:15.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't have time to learn the Book of Revelation,

0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:17.360
<v Speaker 2>the Seven Churches, the lampstands, the candlestands.

0:13:17.640 --> 0:13:18.960
<v Speaker 1>I'll know all that when I need to.

0:13:19.000 --> 0:13:22.000
<v Speaker 2>But right now, I just need God to help me

0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:26.160
<v Speaker 2>from saying something crazy. I need God to help me.

0:13:26.200 --> 0:13:28.080
<v Speaker 2>How many of you say I need God to help

0:13:28.120 --> 0:13:32.400
<v Speaker 2>me right now? Well, that was the situation that the

0:13:32.559 --> 0:13:35.559
<v Speaker 2>Kings were in. That's the situation that I was praying about.

0:13:35.720 --> 0:13:39.560
<v Speaker 2>I breathe you in Holy Spirit, because sometimes I feel

0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:43.559
<v Speaker 2>like I'm losing it. Sometimes I feel like I'm coming unhinged, unglued.

0:13:43.640 --> 0:13:47.080
<v Speaker 2>Sometimes I feel like if I don't get God to

0:13:47.160 --> 0:13:50.319
<v Speaker 2>help me right now, I'm gonna make a mess of this.

0:13:51.440 --> 0:13:54.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't have time to spend the next ten years

0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:57.360
<v Speaker 2>growing out of my own dysfunction. My kids need to

0:13:57.400 --> 0:13:59.800
<v Speaker 2>see a good example now. I need to make this

0:13:59.800 --> 0:14:02.600
<v Speaker 2>to now. I need to be able to figure out

0:14:02.640 --> 0:14:05.480
<v Speaker 2>what God wants me to do now. And the beautiful

0:14:05.480 --> 0:14:08.880
<v Speaker 2>thing is when you get to your now, I need

0:14:08.920 --> 0:14:13.000
<v Speaker 2>it now. God already knew you'd be there. So God's

0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:16.760
<v Speaker 2>not surprised about where you are. He's not surprised about

0:14:16.800 --> 0:14:20.440
<v Speaker 2>where you struggle. He's not surprised about where you're dry.

0:14:20.560 --> 0:14:24.480
<v Speaker 2>He's not surprised that you're depending on him in this situation.

0:14:24.640 --> 0:14:27.560
<v Speaker 2>He's like, I was waiting on you to figure out

0:14:27.560 --> 0:14:30.680
<v Speaker 2>that you needed me so I could flow into your situation.

0:14:31.640 --> 0:14:34.880
<v Speaker 2>Somebody touched somebody right now on every location and online,

0:14:35.080 --> 0:14:40.680
<v Speaker 2>and say God knew what he would do. Say it

0:14:41.240 --> 0:14:46.920
<v Speaker 2>God knew what he would do in the chat right now,

0:14:47.240 --> 0:14:54.000
<v Speaker 2>God knew what he would do when before you came

0:14:54.080 --> 0:14:56.800
<v Speaker 2>to this moment, and I'm gonna show you in the scripture.

0:14:57.520 --> 0:14:59.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna show you in the scripture that God knew

0:14:59.360 --> 0:15:04.440
<v Speaker 2>what he would do when when Jesus asked the disciples,

0:15:04.480 --> 0:15:06.960
<v Speaker 2>where shall we get bread enough to feed all these people?

0:15:07.200 --> 0:15:09.840
<v Speaker 2>He was trolling them. He knew what he would do.

0:15:09.920 --> 0:15:12.680
<v Speaker 2>The scripture says he knew what he would do. He

0:15:12.800 --> 0:15:16.120
<v Speaker 2>was saying it to test them. Would they trust them?

0:15:16.880 --> 0:15:20.480
<v Speaker 2>That's all it is. Do you trust God enough? That's

0:15:20.520 --> 0:15:24.640
<v Speaker 2>all it is. To take a step forward and say,

0:15:25.360 --> 0:15:29.600
<v Speaker 2>this is the next thing. Ah, breathe in the Holy Spirit.

0:15:29.680 --> 0:15:32.880
<v Speaker 1>Let's go. This is the next thing. I don't know

0:15:32.920 --> 0:15:34.840
<v Speaker 1>what's next after next, but this is next.

0:15:35.080 --> 0:15:39.160
<v Speaker 2>Stop putting so much pressure on yourself, students, to know

0:15:39.480 --> 0:15:41.480
<v Speaker 2>what you're gonna do with your life in five years.

0:15:41.520 --> 0:15:44.600
<v Speaker 2>It's not five years. Let's get five seconds. Breathe in

0:15:44.640 --> 0:15:47.440
<v Speaker 2>and be nice. Breathe in and do the next problem

0:15:47.480 --> 0:15:49.960
<v Speaker 2>on the sheet. Breathe in and do the next thing.

0:15:50.200 --> 0:15:52.200
<v Speaker 2>I was preaching a few weeks ago on the next

0:15:52.240 --> 0:15:54.880
<v Speaker 2>Best Thing, and I was talking about how in the

0:15:54.920 --> 0:15:56.360
<v Speaker 2>sequence of God.

0:15:56.800 --> 0:15:59.320
<v Speaker 1>We don't know what's coming three years from now.

0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:04.160
<v Speaker 2>We can't judge what we're going through in a generic

0:16:04.280 --> 0:16:08.240
<v Speaker 2>way in any given moment of our life because we

0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:11.400
<v Speaker 2>don't know that we might be one nudge away. Somebody say,

0:16:11.440 --> 0:16:16.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm one nudge away. I'm one nudge away. God can

0:16:16.120 --> 0:16:19.280
<v Speaker 2>nudge someone that you don't even know right now. And

0:16:19.400 --> 0:16:22.000
<v Speaker 2>you might have a wife next year, even though you've

0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:23.360
<v Speaker 2>been single for twenty two.

0:16:23.480 --> 0:16:26.080
<v Speaker 1>God knows. But you better get to church.

0:16:26.120 --> 0:16:28.560
<v Speaker 2>You better get your butt in a good place so

0:16:28.600 --> 0:16:32.600
<v Speaker 2>you can meet the right one. Somebody needs to go

0:16:32.640 --> 0:16:34.960
<v Speaker 2>say I'm gonna join that Greeter team, and I'm gonna

0:16:34.960 --> 0:16:37.640
<v Speaker 2>do it right now. Can I start next week? Because

0:16:37.680 --> 0:16:41.360
<v Speaker 2>watch this, I want to be sitting in the right place.

0:16:41.440 --> 0:16:45.240
<v Speaker 2>Acts Chapter two. They were sitting in one accord when

0:16:45.280 --> 0:16:49.440
<v Speaker 2>the spirit came. They were sitting, and it came suddenly,

0:16:50.000 --> 0:16:54.040
<v Speaker 2>but they were sitting. This message is called a steady

0:16:54.120 --> 0:16:59.520
<v Speaker 2>hand for a sudden blessing. God's hand is steady moving

0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:02.800
<v Speaker 2>in your life right now. God's hand is steady.

0:17:02.440 --> 0:17:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Upholding you through your dark seasons.

0:17:04.560 --> 0:17:08.120
<v Speaker 2>God's hand is steady making sure you don't fall, even

0:17:08.160 --> 0:17:12.480
<v Speaker 2>as you're walking forward in dark places like Abraham, go

0:17:12.960 --> 0:17:15.800
<v Speaker 2>to the land. I will show you, and I will

0:17:15.800 --> 0:17:19.480
<v Speaker 2>guide you, and I will give you my direction step

0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:23.560
<v Speaker 2>by step, like the hymn said, great is thy faithfulness,

0:17:23.600 --> 0:17:26.880
<v Speaker 2>Oh God, my Father, there is no shadow of turning

0:17:26.920 --> 0:17:31.760
<v Speaker 2>with thee. All I have needed, Thy hand hath provided

0:17:32.440 --> 0:17:37.840
<v Speaker 2>morning by morning new mercies I see Thy hand has provided,

0:17:37.960 --> 0:17:43.680
<v Speaker 2>how morning by morning steady, that's Steady's I'm gonna get

0:17:43.680 --> 0:17:47.479
<v Speaker 2>the grace for today today, and I'm gonna put the

0:17:47.520 --> 0:17:51.560
<v Speaker 2>faith for tomorrow in the hands of the God who

0:17:51.640 --> 0:17:55.480
<v Speaker 2>has given me the grace for today. I feel Jesus,

0:17:55.480 --> 0:17:59.840
<v Speaker 2>somebody shall I got it today because the steady hand

0:17:59.840 --> 0:18:04.240
<v Speaker 2>of God is giving me what I need for today today,

0:18:04.800 --> 0:18:08.280
<v Speaker 2>and what I don't know about tomorrow, I'll know when

0:18:08.320 --> 0:18:11.360
<v Speaker 2>I need it. So somebody shouts something real quick, say

0:18:11.600 --> 0:18:16.160
<v Speaker 2>sorry tomorrow. Wave your hand like this, say sorry tomorrow.

0:18:16.280 --> 0:18:16.520
<v Speaker 1>Do it.

0:18:16.520 --> 0:18:19.719
<v Speaker 2>You're not doing it, Do it right now, Say sorry tomorrow.

0:18:20.840 --> 0:18:23.080
<v Speaker 2>I know you want me to worry about you, but

0:18:23.160 --> 0:18:25.560
<v Speaker 2>I got to put you in God's hands.

0:18:26.119 --> 0:18:30.040
<v Speaker 1>The steady hand of God can hold you tomorrow, but

0:18:30.280 --> 0:18:34.280
<v Speaker 1>your heart can't because God designed you to live in

0:18:34.760 --> 0:18:39.720
<v Speaker 1>this day. So now watch this. The kings have come together.

0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:44.160
<v Speaker 1>They're leading into a battle against an enemy named Moab.

0:18:44.640 --> 0:18:48.360
<v Speaker 2>They don't know what to do. They go get the prophet.

0:18:48.400 --> 0:18:53.160
<v Speaker 2>His name is Elishah. He's relatively new as well. He

0:18:53.400 --> 0:18:57.359
<v Speaker 2>is following a great prophet named Elijah. I named my

0:18:57.400 --> 0:19:01.440
<v Speaker 2>oldest son that I talked about earlier, after this prophet Elijah.

0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:06.560
<v Speaker 2>Well this is elisha he's the successor of Elijah. And

0:19:06.600 --> 0:19:09.399
<v Speaker 2>now he's got a new job. And these kings are

0:19:09.400 --> 0:19:11.239
<v Speaker 2>fighting a new battle, and none of them know what

0:19:11.280 --> 0:19:11.640
<v Speaker 2>to do.

0:19:11.600 --> 0:19:12.560
<v Speaker 1>But God does.

0:19:13.960 --> 0:19:16.520
<v Speaker 2>The disciples didn't know when the Holy Spirit was going

0:19:16.560 --> 0:19:18.679
<v Speaker 2>to come. They don't know when it's gonna happen, but

0:19:18.920 --> 0:19:19.600
<v Speaker 2>God does.

0:19:20.520 --> 0:19:22.159
<v Speaker 3>And all you gotta do I want you to get

0:19:22.200 --> 0:19:27.199
<v Speaker 3>this is stay steady for the stuff you don't know,

0:19:27.640 --> 0:19:31.400
<v Speaker 3>Stay steady for the stuff you can't see.

0:19:31.720 --> 0:19:35.560
<v Speaker 1>Stay steady, because watch what the word of the Lord is.

0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:38.280
<v Speaker 2>And I deliver this to you by the Spirit of

0:19:38.440 --> 0:19:42.119
<v Speaker 2>God on this day where we celebrate Pentecost.

0:19:43.200 --> 0:19:46.920
<v Speaker 1>The Holy Spirit that God breathed out.

0:19:47.000 --> 0:19:50.480
<v Speaker 2>See when Jesus breathed his final breath on the cross,

0:19:51.359 --> 0:19:55.240
<v Speaker 2>he was getting ready fifty days after his resurrection to

0:19:55.359 --> 0:19:56.720
<v Speaker 2>send his spirit.

0:19:56.960 --> 0:19:59.679
<v Speaker 1>And that spirit is here with us now.

0:20:00.119 --> 0:20:03.240
<v Speaker 2>This is the time, this is the season, this is

0:20:03.280 --> 0:20:06.080
<v Speaker 2>the day of the Lord's favor. We're not waiting for

0:20:06.160 --> 0:20:09.800
<v Speaker 2>his Spirit to come. The hand of God that moved

0:20:09.840 --> 0:20:14.119
<v Speaker 2>through history, the hand of God that sent Jesus at

0:20:14.280 --> 0:20:17.560
<v Speaker 2>just the right time, the hand of God that was

0:20:17.680 --> 0:20:21.359
<v Speaker 2>shaping all of the events of your life has sent

0:20:21.440 --> 0:20:22.000
<v Speaker 2>the spirit.

0:20:22.119 --> 0:20:27.840
<v Speaker 1>And that hand is on you right now, right now.

0:20:27.880 --> 0:20:32.120
<v Speaker 2>He's blessing, right now, he's saving, right now, he's healing,

0:20:32.400 --> 0:20:33.879
<v Speaker 2>right now, he's delivering.

0:20:34.160 --> 0:20:34.760
<v Speaker 1>Right now.

0:20:34.760 --> 0:20:39.240
<v Speaker 2>He's coming into your room, into your loneliness, into your situation,

0:20:39.760 --> 0:20:40.840
