WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.300
 I know we'd all like to go there, huh?

00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:05.259
 Let's all go to Children's Church this morning.

00:00:06.259 --> 00:00:08.099
! Much better than this, I'm sure.

00:00:10.740 --> 00:00:11.599
 Let's pray.

00:00:17.039 --> 00:00:23.559
 Yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, forever and ever.

00:00:23.559 --> 00:00:24.320
 Amen.

00:00:25.820 --> 00:00:29.199
 That is the anthem we will sing for all of eternity.

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:32.920
 Singing about the worthiness of our God.

00:00:33.880 --> 00:00:36.899
 So this morning, as we come now to your word,

00:00:37.520 --> 00:00:39.659
 I pray that you would reign in our hearts.

00:00:40.679 --> 00:00:45.219
 That you would take the place of honor for us today.

00:00:46.539 --> 00:00:50.980
 Remove for us the other things that have taken your place.

00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:57.400
 Reclaim your spot of supremacy and lordship in our lives.

00:00:57.399 --> 00:01:00.179
 And as we look at this text today,

00:01:00.679 --> 00:01:03.579
 may there be another area of our lives

00:01:03.579 --> 00:01:08.319
 where we recommit ourselves to be more like our God.

00:01:08.920 --> 00:01:11.439
 We praise you in Jesus' name. Amen.

00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:17.140
 Well, if you've been reading the news over the last several weeks

00:01:17.140 --> 00:01:21.420
 and kind of keeping in touch with kind of the international story,

00:01:21.539 --> 00:01:27.979
 you've seen that ISIS, the last major stronghold in Syria,

00:01:28.719 --> 00:01:31.900
 was conquered just a couple of weeks ago

00:01:31.900 --> 00:01:37.520
 in the city of, I think, Raka is how you pronounce the name of the city.

00:01:38.719 --> 00:01:40.480
 But it was not without cost.

00:01:42.520 --> 00:01:47.860
 In this city was a soccer stadium known as the Black Coliseum.

00:01:49.360 --> 00:01:52.660
 Mainly because of the construction of the materials that they used,

00:01:52.660 --> 00:01:59.439
 the black kind of concrete that was used for this black coliseum.

00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:03.819
 But it took on new meaning as a result of what ISIS did

00:02:03.819 --> 00:02:08.240
 in terms of making it a place of imprisonment and torture.

00:02:09.539 --> 00:02:13.759
 The gym and the locker rooms and the showers

00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:19.060
 in the bottom area of this coliseum were used as a jail.

00:02:19.060 --> 00:02:23.819
 And even the gym equipment was used as torture devices.

00:02:23.819 --> 00:02:27.719
 Those that spent any time there and survived

00:02:27.719 --> 00:02:33.099
 recount the story of the horrors that took place in that coliseum.

00:02:35.340 --> 00:02:38.759
 And any of us who have kind of been caught up in the news

00:02:38.759 --> 00:02:42.539
 of all the things that have happened in the Muslim world,

00:02:42.659 --> 00:02:48.879
 particularly with ISIS and their sweeping power across Iraq and Syria

00:02:48.879 --> 00:02:52.180
 and Damascus and all these other surrounding places,

00:02:53.039 --> 00:02:57.019
 have been gripped with the stories of the atrocities that have taken place.

00:02:58.400 --> 00:03:02.240
 It seems that social media has been a great venue

00:03:02.240 --> 00:03:06.300
 for ISIS to promote their story

00:03:06.300 --> 00:03:10.699
 in kind of an unfiltered, raw, in graphic terms.

00:03:10.699 --> 00:03:15.699
 Shocking the world with the grotesqueness and brutality

00:03:15.699 --> 00:03:20.359
 of their collection of individuals,

00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:21.939
 their military force.

00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:25.119
 And what seemed to be horrifying,

00:03:25.419 --> 00:03:30.379
 the one week was just eclipsed by another atrocity the following week.

00:03:30.439 --> 00:03:33.560
 Almost as if they were trying to outdo one another

00:03:33.560 --> 00:03:40.039
 in raising the bar for what can be done to a human body

00:03:40.039 --> 00:03:43.199
 to create shock and awe across the world.

00:03:44.920 --> 00:03:47.539
 As I have watched the story unfold

00:03:47.539 --> 00:03:50.080
 and as I have been caught up in the flow

00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:54.340
 of this moving force across the Middle East,

00:03:54.900 --> 00:03:58.420
 the question that grows in my own heart is

00:03:58.420 --> 00:04:02.699
 how has this affected my perception of a people?

00:04:03.560 --> 00:04:07.300
 The people that we run across,

00:04:07.539 --> 00:04:11.280
 I can remember even the first airplane ride

00:04:11.280 --> 00:04:13.120
 that I took after 9-11

00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:17.439
 and seeing people on the plane who were clearly Muslim

00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:23.899
 and that sense in my own heart,

00:04:24.420 --> 00:04:27.379
 oh my goodness, what is going to happen on this flight?

00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:30.800
 And perhaps in your own communities

00:04:30.800 --> 00:04:32.840
 as you go to the park

00:04:32.840 --> 00:04:36.180
 or see a rising number of neighbors

00:04:36.180 --> 00:04:38.680
 who are quite different from you.

00:04:39.439 --> 00:04:41.280
 How has the spread of ISIS

00:04:41.280 --> 00:04:43.400
 and the conflict in the Middle East

00:04:43.400 --> 00:04:47.379
 affected your interest in your perception

00:04:47.379 --> 00:04:50.840
 and even your contact,

00:04:51.180 --> 00:04:51.900
 your relationships

00:04:51.900 --> 00:04:54.340
 with people who are different from you?

00:04:54.339 --> 00:04:59.339
 Imagine for a moment what it would be like.

00:04:59.439 --> 00:05:02.719
 If we feel this and we're watching from a distance,

00:05:02.879 --> 00:05:04.379
 imagine what it would be like

00:05:04.379 --> 00:05:06.039
 if you were in the culture.

00:05:07.519 --> 00:05:11.399
 It's estimated that the number of refugees

00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:15.539
 as a result of the ISIS occupation

00:05:15.539 --> 00:05:19.479
 have been 3.3 million people in Iraq alone.

00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:25.240
 Estimated in 2013 of 1.5 million in Syria.

00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:29.500
 Certainly those numbers grew exponentially

00:05:29.500 --> 00:05:32.540
 over the occupation that took place.

00:05:33.720 --> 00:05:36.580
 Here you see a couple of pictures up on the screen.

00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:39.680
 The first on your left,

00:05:41.520 --> 00:05:44.160
 a mob of individuals waiting for food.

00:05:44.160 --> 00:05:49.900
 Can you imagine

00:05:49.900 --> 00:05:52.439
 the desperation

00:05:52.439 --> 00:05:57.520
 between bombed out apartment complexes,

00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:01.820
 this mass of people clinging to life,

00:06:03.740 --> 00:06:06.000
 desperate for the most basic things,

00:06:06.580 --> 00:06:08.540
 shelter, food, clothing?

00:06:08.540 --> 00:06:13.460
 My own heart is gripped

00:06:13.460 --> 00:06:14.960
 by the picture on the right.

00:06:16.819 --> 00:06:18.480
 These are somebody's kids.

00:06:20.280 --> 00:06:22.439
 Can you see the terror

00:06:22.439 --> 00:06:24.939
 on the faces of these children?

00:06:27.340 --> 00:06:30.180
 Imagine if these were your kids.

00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:35.259
 Imagine if it was you standing in line,

00:06:36.040 --> 00:06:37.220
 clinging to life,

00:06:37.220 --> 00:06:40.040
 desperate for what was coming next,

00:06:40.360 --> 00:06:41.540
 fleeing the danger,

00:06:41.900 --> 00:06:43.960
 taking whatever risk it took

00:06:43.960 --> 00:06:46.460
 to get out of the imminent danger

00:06:46.460 --> 00:06:50.660
 and moving into places of relative safety,

00:06:51.060 --> 00:06:51.900
 better safety.

00:06:53.600 --> 00:06:54.180
 Well,

00:06:55.180 --> 00:06:56.840
 what goes through your mind

00:06:56.840 --> 00:06:58.760
 when you see these people?

00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:04.960
 How would that amplify your feelings

00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:08.419
 against those who oppressed you?

00:07:09.299 --> 00:07:12.579
 Those who were hostile against you?

00:07:13.099 --> 00:07:14.560
 Those who robbed you

00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:16.359
 of the people that you loved

00:07:16.359 --> 00:07:18.299
 and took away the things you worked

00:07:18.299 --> 00:07:19.459
 the hardest to get?

00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:22.139
 What would that do

00:07:22.139 --> 00:07:24.179
 to your feeling

00:07:24.179 --> 00:07:26.219
 of hatred,

00:07:27.339 --> 00:07:27.639
 bitterness,

00:07:28.919 --> 00:07:29.359
 anger

00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:30.680
 towards

00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:32.319
 an oppressor?

00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:34.800
 Well,

00:07:34.819 --> 00:07:35.879
 this is the context

00:07:35.879 --> 00:07:37.480
 of the passage

00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:38.400
 that we're in

00:07:38.400 --> 00:07:39.560
 this morning.

00:07:40.379 --> 00:07:41.740
 As we're moving through

00:07:41.740 --> 00:07:42.720
 the book of Isaiah,

00:07:43.379 --> 00:07:45.500
 beginning in Isaiah chapter 10

00:07:45.500 --> 00:07:47.120
 and moving all the way

00:07:47.120 --> 00:07:49.300
 to Isaiah chapter 35,

00:07:49.300 --> 00:07:50.480
 we see

00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:52.139
 this evidence

00:07:52.139 --> 00:07:53.660
 that God will judge

00:07:53.660 --> 00:07:54.439
 the nations.

00:07:54.439 --> 00:07:57.860
 And if you're experiencing

00:07:57.860 --> 00:07:59.779
 direct hostility,

00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:00.939
 you say,

00:08:01.139 --> 00:08:02.660
 it's about time.

00:08:04.639 --> 00:08:06.560
 They're getting what they deserve.

00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:08.879
 I'm so glad

00:08:08.879 --> 00:08:10.220
 that God is finally

00:08:10.220 --> 00:08:11.420
 going to take them

00:08:11.420 --> 00:08:12.159
 out of the way.

00:08:13.259 --> 00:08:14.540
 Give them a taste

00:08:14.540 --> 00:08:15.759
 of their own medicine.

00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:19.539
 But then we come

00:08:19.539 --> 00:08:20.079
 to this

00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:22.399
 another surprising,

00:08:22.860 --> 00:08:23.360
 shocking

00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:24.639
 passage

00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:26.779
 in Isaiah chapter 19.

00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:29.120
 In the midst

00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:29.980
 of judgment,

00:08:30.180 --> 00:08:30.800
 we find

00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:31.819
 there are promises.

00:08:33.700 --> 00:08:34.139
 Promises

00:08:34.139 --> 00:08:35.399
 to the oppressor.

00:08:36.860 --> 00:08:37.259
 Promises

00:08:37.259 --> 00:08:37.980
 to a

00:08:37.980 --> 00:08:39.120
 nation,

00:08:39.319 --> 00:08:39.899
 an empire,

00:08:40.080 --> 00:08:40.799
 who has been

00:08:40.799 --> 00:08:42.799
 used by God

00:08:42.799 --> 00:08:43.620
 as an instrument

00:08:43.620 --> 00:08:44.519
 of discipline

00:08:44.519 --> 00:08:45.279
 in your life.

00:08:45.759 --> 00:08:47.620
 totally

00:08:47.620 --> 00:08:48.919
 turning everything

00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:49.879
 upside down

00:08:49.879 --> 00:08:50.379
 for you.

00:08:52.220 --> 00:08:52.899
 Ruining

00:08:52.899 --> 00:08:53.980
 families,

00:08:54.620 --> 00:08:55.019
 comfort.

00:08:57.019 --> 00:08:57.899
 And that's

00:08:57.899 --> 00:08:58.419
 where we come

00:08:58.419 --> 00:08:58.899
 today.

00:08:59.700 --> 00:09:00.120
 Feel

00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:01.639
 a little bit

00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:02.879
 of the emotion

00:09:02.879 --> 00:09:04.340
 behind the words

00:09:04.340 --> 00:09:05.340
 that Isaiah

00:09:05.340 --> 00:09:05.899
 is writing

00:09:05.899 --> 00:09:06.659
 to these people

00:09:06.659 --> 00:09:08.659
 as we look

00:09:08.659 --> 00:09:09.480
 at Isaiah chapter

00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:10.080
 19

00:09:10.080 --> 00:09:11.039
 this morning.

00:09:12.080 --> 00:09:12.980
 If you're not

00:09:12.980 --> 00:09:13.460
 there already,

00:09:13.580 --> 00:09:14.340
 please turn with me

00:09:14.340 --> 00:09:15.439
 to Isaiah chapter 19.

00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:17.179
 If you're a guest

00:09:17.179 --> 00:09:18.100
 with us this morning,

00:09:18.139 --> 00:09:18.740
 it's on page

00:09:18.740 --> 00:09:20.240
 581.

00:09:21.519 --> 00:09:22.139
 We're going to

00:09:22.139 --> 00:09:23.019
 start and just

00:09:23.019 --> 00:09:24.360
 focus most of our

00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:25.059
 time this morning

00:09:25.059 --> 00:09:26.200
 on this first point.

00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:27.480
 The promises

00:09:27.480 --> 00:09:28.799
 regarding Egypt.

00:09:29.600 --> 00:09:30.399
 The promises

00:09:30.399 --> 00:09:32.200
 regarding Egypt.

00:09:33.659 --> 00:09:34.220
 Let me begin

00:09:34.220 --> 00:09:35.100
 with just the first

00:09:35.100 --> 00:09:35.620
 couple

00:09:35.620 --> 00:09:36.580
 of verses

00:09:36.580 --> 00:09:37.960
 and then we're

00:09:37.960 --> 00:09:38.319
 going to move

00:09:38.319 --> 00:09:38.919
 to the end

00:09:38.919 --> 00:09:39.439
 of the chapter

00:09:39.439 --> 00:09:40.939
 to really fill out

00:09:40.940 --> 00:09:41.540
 for us

00:09:41.540 --> 00:09:43.280
 the promises

00:09:43.280 --> 00:09:44.900
 that bring hope,

00:09:45.380 --> 00:09:45.880
 not just

00:09:45.880 --> 00:09:46.840
 devastation.

00:09:47.860 --> 00:09:48.660
 But beginning

00:09:48.660 --> 00:09:49.860
 in verse 1

00:09:49.860 --> 00:09:50.580
 of Isaiah

00:09:50.580 --> 00:09:51.300
 chapter 19.

00:09:51.940 --> 00:09:52.880
 An oracle

00:09:52.880 --> 00:09:54.000
 concerning Egypt.

00:09:54.700 --> 00:09:55.260
 Behold,

00:09:55.360 --> 00:09:55.780
 the Lord

00:09:55.780 --> 00:09:56.380
 is riding

00:09:56.380 --> 00:09:57.620
 on a swift cloud

00:09:57.620 --> 00:09:58.760
 and comes

00:09:58.760 --> 00:09:59.360
 to Egypt.

00:09:59.880 --> 00:10:00.760
 And the idols

00:10:00.760 --> 00:10:01.220
 of Egypt

00:10:01.220 --> 00:10:01.920
 will tremble

00:10:01.920 --> 00:10:02.680
 at his presence

00:10:02.680 --> 00:10:03.660
 and the heart

00:10:03.660 --> 00:10:04.240
 of the Egyptians

00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:04.860
 will melt

00:10:04.860 --> 00:10:05.460
 within them.

00:10:06.300 --> 00:10:06.880
 And I will

00:10:06.880 --> 00:10:07.360
 stir up

00:10:07.360 --> 00:10:07.860
 the Egyptians

00:10:07.860 --> 00:10:08.860
 against the Egyptians

00:10:08.860 --> 00:10:10.120
 and they will

00:10:10.120 --> 00:10:11.480
 fight each

00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:12.700
 against one another

00:10:12.700 --> 00:10:14.120
 and each

00:10:14.120 --> 00:10:15.379
 against his neighbor.

00:10:16.019 --> 00:10:16.360
 City

00:10:16.360 --> 00:10:17.340
 against city.

00:10:17.519 --> 00:10:17.800
 Kingdom

00:10:17.800 --> 00:10:18.740
 against kingdom.

00:10:19.060 --> 00:10:19.860
 And the spirit

00:10:19.860 --> 00:10:20.419
 of the Egyptians

00:10:20.419 --> 00:10:21.259
 within them

00:10:21.259 --> 00:10:22.259
 will be emptied out.

00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:23.460
 And I will

00:10:23.460 --> 00:10:24.039
 confound

00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:24.680
 their counsel

00:10:24.680 --> 00:10:25.480
 and they will

00:10:25.480 --> 00:10:26.080
 inquire

00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:26.680
 of the idols

00:10:26.680 --> 00:10:27.820
 of the sorcerers

00:10:27.820 --> 00:10:28.560
 and the mediums

00:10:28.560 --> 00:10:29.720
 and the necromancers.

00:10:30.779 --> 00:10:31.680
 And I will

00:10:31.680 --> 00:10:32.460
 give over

00:10:32.460 --> 00:10:33.080
 the Egyptians

00:10:33.080 --> 00:10:34.159
 into the hand

00:10:34.159 --> 00:10:35.399
 of a hard master.

00:10:36.180 --> 00:10:37.220
 And a fierce king

00:10:37.220 --> 00:10:38.420
 will rule over them

00:10:38.419 --> 00:10:39.159
 declares

00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:39.919
 the Lord

00:10:39.919 --> 00:10:40.659
 of hosts.

00:10:41.839 --> 00:10:42.559
 And if you are

00:10:42.559 --> 00:10:44.579
 reading this

00:10:44.579 --> 00:10:45.500
 prophecy

00:10:45.500 --> 00:10:46.299
 at least

00:10:46.299 --> 00:10:47.240
 the front end

00:10:47.240 --> 00:10:48.079
 of this prophecy

00:10:48.079 --> 00:10:49.019
 as a person

00:10:49.019 --> 00:10:50.939
 living in Judah

00:10:50.939 --> 00:10:51.519
 in Jerusalem

00:10:51.519 --> 00:10:52.479
 you are saying

00:10:52.479 --> 00:10:53.740
 it is about time

00:10:53.740 --> 00:10:55.539
 they're getting

00:10:55.539 --> 00:10:56.299
 what's coming

00:10:56.299 --> 00:10:56.979
 to them.

00:10:58.179 --> 00:10:59.439
 This stern

00:10:59.439 --> 00:11:00.379
 warning of judgment

00:11:00.379 --> 00:11:01.339
 against a nation.

00:11:02.120 --> 00:11:02.679
 A nation

00:11:02.679 --> 00:11:03.480
 who has set

00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:04.099
 itself

00:11:04.099 --> 00:11:05.360
 against

00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:06.279
 Judah

00:11:06.279 --> 00:11:07.579
 against God's

00:11:07.579 --> 00:11:07.959
 people.

00:11:08.419 --> 00:11:09.299
 has been

00:11:09.299 --> 00:11:09.799
 a rod

00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:10.419
 of discipline

00:11:10.419 --> 00:11:11.679
 on a

00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:12.479
 disobedient

00:11:12.479 --> 00:11:12.919
 people.

00:11:14.059 --> 00:11:14.399
 And here we

00:11:14.399 --> 00:11:15.240
 find in chapter

00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:15.639
 19

00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:16.459
 another prophecy

00:11:16.459 --> 00:11:18.219
 regarding

00:11:18.219 --> 00:11:19.240
 this nation

00:11:19.240 --> 00:11:20.360
 and the nation

00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:20.879
 of Egypt

00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:22.019
 whose history

00:11:22.019 --> 00:11:23.039
 was so bound

00:11:23.039 --> 00:11:23.959
 up with Israel

00:11:23.959 --> 00:11:25.740
 from the very

00:11:25.740 --> 00:11:26.159
 beginning

00:11:26.159 --> 00:11:26.919
 going all the way

00:11:26.919 --> 00:11:27.740
 back to Genesis

00:11:27.740 --> 00:11:28.639
 chapter 12

00:11:28.639 --> 00:11:29.919
 where God

00:11:29.919 --> 00:11:30.899
 is calling

00:11:30.899 --> 00:11:32.159
 out a people

00:11:32.159 --> 00:11:32.740
 for himself.

00:11:33.159 --> 00:11:34.339
 He is calling

00:11:34.339 --> 00:11:35.039
 out Abraham

00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:35.179
 Abraham.

00:11:36.620 --> 00:11:36.879
 And then

00:11:36.879 --> 00:11:37.899
 as soon as

00:11:37.899 --> 00:11:38.599
 God gives

00:11:38.599 --> 00:11:39.779
 this promise

00:11:39.779 --> 00:11:40.439
 of blessing

00:11:40.439 --> 00:11:41.240
 to Abraham

00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:41.860
 we find

00:11:41.860 --> 00:11:42.579
 that Abraham

00:11:42.579 --> 00:11:43.199
 is in the

00:11:43.199 --> 00:11:43.599
 middle of a

00:11:43.599 --> 00:11:43.939
 crisis.

00:11:44.959 --> 00:11:45.659
 There's a famine

00:11:45.659 --> 00:11:46.159
 in the land

00:11:46.159 --> 00:11:46.879
 and where does

00:11:46.879 --> 00:11:47.679
 Abraham go?

00:11:47.839 --> 00:11:48.000
 Well

00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:49.219
 in Genesis

00:11:49.219 --> 00:11:49.899
 chapter 12

00:11:49.899 --> 00:11:50.419
 verse 10

00:11:50.419 --> 00:11:50.919
 we find that

00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:51.500
 Abraham goes

00:11:51.500 --> 00:11:52.120
 down to Egypt

00:11:52.120 --> 00:11:53.219
 to escape

00:11:53.219 --> 00:11:53.679
 the famine.

00:11:54.779 --> 00:11:55.019
 God

00:11:55.019 --> 00:11:56.019
 even used

00:11:56.019 --> 00:11:56.699
 the nation

00:11:56.699 --> 00:11:57.120
 of Egypt

00:11:57.120 --> 00:11:58.259
 to harbor

00:11:58.259 --> 00:11:58.819
 and to

00:11:58.819 --> 00:11:59.259
 protect

00:11:59.259 --> 00:11:59.819
 his people.

00:12:00.919 --> 00:12:01.740
 We see the

00:12:01.740 --> 00:12:02.259
 same kind

00:12:02.259 --> 00:12:02.620
 of thing

00:12:02.620 --> 00:12:03.500
 in Genesis

00:12:03.500 --> 00:12:04.500
 chapter 37.

00:12:05.720 --> 00:12:06.039
 Joseph

00:12:06.039 --> 00:12:07.139
 was taken

00:12:07.139 --> 00:12:07.679
 captive

00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:08.279
 down to

00:12:08.279 --> 00:12:08.639
 Egypt

00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:10.179
 and soon

00:12:10.179 --> 00:12:10.580
 after

00:12:10.580 --> 00:12:11.460
 over a

00:12:11.460 --> 00:12:11.819
 course of

00:12:11.819 --> 00:12:12.500
 another famine

00:12:12.500 --> 00:12:13.879
 Jacob

00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:14.299
 and all

00:12:14.299 --> 00:12:14.559
 of his

00:12:14.559 --> 00:12:15.039
 sons

00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:16.779
 70 in

00:12:16.779 --> 00:12:17.059
 all

00:12:17.059 --> 00:12:17.620
 go down

00:12:17.620 --> 00:12:18.220
 to Egypt

00:12:18.220 --> 00:12:18.939
 and they're

00:12:18.939 --> 00:12:19.279
 there for

00:12:19.279 --> 00:12:20.080
 400 years.

00:12:21.080 --> 00:12:21.600
 A place

00:12:21.600 --> 00:12:22.500
 of preservation

00:12:22.500 --> 00:12:24.080
 really kind

00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:24.360
 of an

00:12:24.360 --> 00:12:25.159
 incubation

00:12:25.159 --> 00:12:25.679
 center

00:12:25.679 --> 00:12:26.799
 for a

00:12:26.799 --> 00:12:27.939
 nation

00:12:27.939 --> 00:12:28.399
 that was

00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:28.799
 beginning

00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:29.700
 to thrive.

00:12:30.539 --> 00:12:30.700
 What

00:12:30.700 --> 00:12:31.340
 began

00:12:31.340 --> 00:12:32.060
 as 70

00:12:32.060 --> 00:12:32.440
 grew

00:12:32.440 --> 00:12:32.740
 to

00:12:32.740 --> 00:12:33.280
 millions

00:12:33.280 --> 00:12:33.620
 of

00:12:33.620 --> 00:12:34.000
 people

00:12:34.000 --> 00:12:34.500
 over

00:12:34.500 --> 00:12:34.660
 the

00:12:34.660 --> 00:12:35.000
 course

00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:35.480
 of

00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:35.860
 400

00:12:35.860 --> 00:12:36.300
 years

00:12:36.300 --> 00:12:37.160
 sheltered

00:12:37.160 --> 00:12:37.600
 within

00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:37.920
 the

00:12:37.920 --> 00:12:38.420
 empire

00:12:38.420 --> 00:12:38.639
 of

00:12:38.639 --> 00:12:39.019
 Egypt

00:12:39.019 --> 00:12:39.899
 protected

00:12:39.899 --> 00:12:40.820
 and cared

00:12:40.820 --> 00:12:41.240
 for

00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:42.780
 by this

00:12:42.780 --> 00:12:44.019
 nation

00:12:44.019 --> 00:12:45.580
 of Egypt.

00:12:46.460 --> 00:12:47.280
 But there's

00:12:47.280 --> 00:12:47.759
 also a

00:12:47.759 --> 00:12:48.080
 history

00:12:48.080 --> 00:12:49.540
 of military

00:12:49.540 --> 00:12:52.019
 conflict

00:12:52.019 --> 00:12:53.220
 and covenant

00:12:53.220 --> 00:12:53.620
 with one

00:12:53.620 --> 00:12:53.879
 another.

00:12:54.920 --> 00:12:55.360
 We see

00:12:55.360 --> 00:12:56.160
 in 1 Kings

00:12:56.160 --> 00:12:56.920
 that Solomon

00:12:56.920 --> 00:12:57.460
 makes a

00:12:57.460 --> 00:12:57.780
 treaty

00:12:57.780 --> 00:12:58.879
 with the

00:12:58.879 --> 00:12:59.120
 nation

00:12:59.120 --> 00:12:59.480
 of Egypt.

00:12:59.600 --> 00:13:00.379
 He marries

00:13:00.379 --> 00:13:00.899
 the daughter

00:13:00.899 --> 00:13:01.439
 of Pharaoh.

00:13:02.500 --> 00:13:03.039
 We find

00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:03.639
 the first

00:13:03.639 --> 00:13:03.980
 king

00:13:03.980 --> 00:13:04.559
 after

00:13:04.559 --> 00:13:05.320
 Solomon

00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:06.620
 is

00:13:06.620 --> 00:13:08.059
 the king

00:13:08.059 --> 00:13:08.399
 of Egypt

00:13:08.399 --> 00:13:08.860
 comes up

00:13:08.860 --> 00:13:09.220
 against

00:13:09.220 --> 00:13:09.659
 Jerusalem

00:13:09.659 --> 00:13:10.159
 and he

00:13:10.159 --> 00:13:10.740
 takes away

00:13:10.740 --> 00:13:11.580
 the treasures

00:13:11.580 --> 00:13:12.320
 of the

00:13:12.320 --> 00:13:12.700
 house of

00:13:12.700 --> 00:13:12.980
 the Lord

00:13:12.980 --> 00:13:13.259
 and the

00:13:13.259 --> 00:13:13.600
 treasures

00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:14.379
 of the

00:13:14.379 --> 00:13:14.759
 house

00:13:14.759 --> 00:13:16.019
 of Rehoboam.

00:13:17.279 --> 00:13:17.740
 We find

00:13:17.740 --> 00:13:18.779
 in 2 Chronicles

00:13:18.779 --> 00:13:19.200
 that an

00:13:19.200 --> 00:13:19.740
 Ethiopian

00:13:19.740 --> 00:13:20.120
 general

00:13:20.120 --> 00:13:21.460
 was dispatched

00:13:21.460 --> 00:13:23.000
 by Egypt

00:13:23.000 --> 00:13:23.360
 to go

00:13:23.360 --> 00:13:23.679
 against

00:13:23.679 --> 00:13:24.000
 King

00:13:24.000 --> 00:13:24.519
 Asa.

00:13:25.759 --> 00:13:26.220
 We find

00:13:26.220 --> 00:13:27.120
 in 2 Kings

00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:27.879
 chapter 17

00:13:27.879 --> 00:13:28.779
 that Egypt

00:13:28.779 --> 00:13:29.600
 is again

00:13:29.600 --> 00:13:30.539
 in play

00:13:30.539 --> 00:13:31.440
 in relationship

00:13:31.440 --> 00:13:32.379
 to the history

00:13:32.379 --> 00:13:33.399
 of the northern

00:13:33.399 --> 00:13:34.200
 ten tribes.

00:13:35.259 --> 00:13:36.000
 And then in our

00:13:36.000 --> 00:13:36.720
 current setting

00:13:36.720 --> 00:13:37.240
 the setting

00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:38.159
 of Hezekiah

00:13:38.159 --> 00:13:39.799
 we find that

00:13:39.799 --> 00:13:40.440
 Hezekiah is

00:13:40.440 --> 00:13:41.159
 called for help.

00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:41.720
 We'll look at

00:13:41.720 --> 00:13:42.100
 this more

00:13:42.100 --> 00:13:42.799
 next week.

00:13:44.860 --> 00:13:45.659
 But when

00:13:57.299 --> 00:13:57.799
 crisis.

00:13:59.000 --> 00:13:59.600
 All

00:13:59.600 --> 00:13:59.919
 throughout

00:13:59.919 --> 00:14:00.519
 the history

00:14:02.679 --> 00:14:03.480
 it was

00:14:03.480 --> 00:14:04.480
 integrally

00:14:04.480 --> 00:14:05.059
 connected

00:14:20.179 --> 00:14:20.720

00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:21.419
 because

00:14:21.419 --> 00:14:23.360

00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:13.240
 spend the

00:16:13.240 --> 00:16:13.639
 most of

00:16:13.639 --> 00:16:13.759
 our

00:16:13.759 --> 00:16:14.139
 attention

00:16:14.139 --> 00:16:14.659
 this

00:16:14.659 --> 00:16:14.960
 morning.

00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:16.139
 So let

00:16:16.139 --> 00:16:16.399
 me read

00:16:16.399 --> 00:16:16.860
 for us

00:16:16.860 --> 00:16:17.340
 verses

00:16:17.340 --> 00:16:19.080
 16

00:16:19.080 --> 00:16:19.940
 through

00:16:19.940 --> 00:16:21.040
 the rest

00:16:21.040 --> 00:16:21.240
 of the

00:16:21.240 --> 00:16:21.600
 chapter.

00:16:22.420 --> 00:16:22.879
 And then

00:16:22.879 --> 00:16:23.500
 we'll pick

00:16:23.500 --> 00:16:24.360
 up and deal

00:16:24.360 --> 00:16:24.680
 with the

00:16:24.680 --> 00:16:25.460
 five promises

00:16:25.460 --> 00:16:26.240
 that God

00:16:26.240 --> 00:16:27.220
 gives to

00:16:27.220 --> 00:16:28.300
 the empire

00:16:28.300 --> 00:16:28.879
 of Egypt

00:16:28.879 --> 00:16:29.960
 that are

00:16:29.960 --> 00:16:30.740
 all couched

00:16:30.740 --> 00:16:31.500
 within and

00:16:31.500 --> 00:16:32.300
 all led by

00:16:32.300 --> 00:16:32.960
 the statement

00:16:32.960 --> 00:16:33.920
 in that

00:16:33.920 --> 00:16:34.360
 day.

00:16:35.259 --> 00:16:35.860
 A familiar

00:16:35.860 --> 00:16:36.800
 phrase we've

00:16:36.800 --> 00:16:38.019
 come to see

00:16:38.019 --> 00:16:39.180
 throughout our

00:16:39.180 --> 00:16:39.960
 time in the

00:16:39.960 --> 00:16:40.200
 book of

00:16:40.200 --> 00:16:40.560
 Isaiah.

00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:42.259
 What are

00:16:42.259 --> 00:16:42.980
 those promises

00:16:42.980 --> 00:16:44.120
 to Egypt?

00:16:44.700 --> 00:16:45.340
 What is

00:16:45.340 --> 00:16:46.180
 God's future

00:16:46.180 --> 00:16:46.800
 heart for

00:16:46.800 --> 00:16:47.300
 this people?

00:16:47.340 --> 00:16:48.879
 Well, let

00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:49.100
 me read

00:16:49.100 --> 00:16:49.420
 for us

00:16:49.420 --> 00:16:49.800
 beginning

00:16:49.800 --> 00:16:51.280
 in verse

00:16:51.280 --> 00:16:51.740
 16.

00:16:52.899 --> 00:16:53.600
 It says

00:16:53.600 --> 00:16:54.019
 this,

00:16:55.580 --> 00:16:56.480
 In that

00:16:56.480 --> 00:16:56.860
 day,

00:16:57.860 --> 00:16:58.460
 the Egyptians

00:16:58.460 --> 00:16:59.220
 will be like

00:16:59.220 --> 00:17:00.200
 women and

00:17:00.200 --> 00:17:00.840
 tremble with

00:17:00.840 --> 00:17:01.440
 fear before

00:17:01.440 --> 00:17:02.019
 the hand

00:17:02.019 --> 00:17:02.660
 that the

00:17:02.660 --> 00:17:03.120
 Lord of

00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:03.879
 hosts shakes

00:17:03.879 --> 00:17:04.579
 over them,

00:17:05.220 --> 00:17:05.720
 and the

00:17:05.720 --> 00:17:06.120
 land of

00:17:06.120 --> 00:17:06.519
 Judah will

00:17:06.519 --> 00:17:07.039
 become a

00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:07.900
 terror to

00:17:07.900 --> 00:17:08.480
 the Egyptians.

00:17:09.579 --> 00:17:10.340
 Everyone to

00:17:10.340 --> 00:17:10.900
 whom it is

00:17:10.900 --> 00:17:11.880
 mentioned will

00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:12.880
 fear because

00:17:12.880 --> 00:17:13.960
 of the purpose

00:17:13.960 --> 00:17:14.240
 that the

00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:14.759
 Lord of

00:17:14.759 --> 00:17:15.259
 hosts has

00:17:15.259 --> 00:17:15.720
 purposed

00:17:15.720 --> 00:17:16.380
 against them.

00:17:17.339 --> 00:17:18.059
 In that

00:17:18.059 --> 00:17:18.399
 day,

00:17:18.980 --> 00:17:19.319
 there will

00:17:19.319 --> 00:17:19.799
 be five

00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:20.500
 cities in

00:17:20.500 --> 00:17:20.819
 the land

00:17:20.819 --> 00:17:21.240
 of Egypt

00:17:21.240 --> 00:17:22.359
 that speak

00:17:22.359 --> 00:17:22.839
 the language

00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:23.379
 of Canaan

00:17:23.379 --> 00:17:24.299
 and swear

00:17:24.299 --> 00:17:24.980
 legions to

00:17:24.980 --> 00:17:25.339
 the Lord

00:17:25.339 --> 00:17:25.859
 of hosts.

00:17:26.539 --> 00:17:27.059
 One of

00:17:27.059 --> 00:17:27.419
 those will

00:17:27.419 --> 00:17:27.980
 be called

00:17:27.980 --> 00:17:28.359
 the city

00:17:28.359 --> 00:17:28.919
 of destruction.

00:17:30.379 --> 00:17:30.759
 In that

00:17:30.759 --> 00:17:31.099
 day,

00:17:31.879 --> 00:17:32.119
 there will

00:17:32.119 --> 00:17:32.419
 be an

00:17:32.419 --> 00:17:33.359
 altar to

00:17:33.359 --> 00:17:33.659
 the Lord

00:17:33.659 --> 00:17:34.059
 in the midst

00:17:34.059 --> 00:17:34.279
 of the

00:17:34.279 --> 00:17:34.599
 land of

00:17:34.599 --> 00:17:34.939
 Egypt,

00:17:35.379 --> 00:17:35.919
 and a

00:17:35.919 --> 00:17:36.419
 pillar to

00:17:36.419 --> 00:17:36.819
 the Lord

00:17:36.819 --> 00:17:37.159
 at its

00:17:37.159 --> 00:17:37.480
 border.

00:17:38.319 --> 00:17:38.539
 It will

00:17:38.539 --> 00:17:38.839
 be a

00:17:38.839 --> 00:17:40.240
 sign and

00:17:40.240 --> 00:17:40.699
 a witness

00:17:40.699 --> 00:17:41.159
 to the

 Lord of

00:17:41.459 --> 00:17:41.919
 hosts in

00:17:41.919 --> 00:17:42.259
 the land

00:17:42.259 --> 00:17:42.740
 of Egypt.

00:17:42.740 --> 00:17:44.420
 When they

00:17:44.420 --> 00:17:44.799
 cry to

00:17:44.799 --> 00:17:45.099
 the Lord

00:17:45.099 --> 00:17:45.740
 because of

00:17:45.740 --> 00:17:46.400
 oppressors,

00:17:46.680 --> 00:17:47.120
 he will

00:17:47.120 --> 00:17:47.680
 send them

00:17:47.680 --> 00:17:48.140
 a savior

00:17:48.140 --> 00:17:48.579
 and a

00:17:48.579 --> 00:17:48.980
 defender

00:17:48.980 --> 00:17:49.960
 and deliver

00:17:49.960 --> 00:17:50.279
 them.

00:17:51.099 --> 00:17:51.400
 And the

00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:51.680
 Lord will

00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:52.299
 make himself

00:17:52.299 --> 00:17:52.799
 known to

00:17:52.799 --> 00:17:53.259
 the Egyptians

00:17:53.259 --> 00:17:53.720
 and the

00:17:53.720 --> 00:17:54.099
 Egyptians

00:17:54.099 --> 00:17:55.180
 will know

00:17:55.180 --> 00:17:55.599
 the Lord

00:17:55.599 --> 00:17:56.000
 in that

00:17:56.000 --> 00:17:56.779
 day and

00:17:56.779 --> 00:17:57.240

00:17:57.240 --> 00:17:57.579

00:17:58.160 --> 00:17:58.500
 and

00:17:58.500 --> 00:17:58.880

00:17:59.720 --> 00:18:00.299
 And they

00:18:00.299 --> 00:18:00.799

 vows to

00:18:01.599 --> 00:18:01.960
 the Lord

00:18:01.960 --> 00:18:02.620
 and perform

00:18:02.620 --> 00:18:02.960

00:18:03.759 --> 00:18:04.120
 And the

00:18:04.120 --> 00:18:04.460
 Lord will

00:18:04.460 --> 00:18:05.440
 strike Egypt,

00:18:05.779 --> 00:18:06.420
 striking and

00:18:06.420 --> 00:18:06.720
 healing,

00:18:06.900 --> 00:18:07.279
 and they

00:18:07.279 --> 00:18:07.819

 their pleas

00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:10.819
 for mercy

00:18:10.819 --> 00:18:11.620
 and heal

00:18:11.620 --> 00:18:11.900
 them.

00:18:12.740 --> 00:18:13.579
 In that

00:18:13.579 --> 00:18:13.880
 day,

00:18:14.579 --> 00:18:15.220
 there will

00:18:15.220 --> 00:18:15.480
 be a

00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:16.180
 highway from

00:18:16.180 --> 00:18:16.680
 Egypt to

00:18:16.680 --> 00:18:17.140
 Assyria,

00:18:17.599 --> 00:18:18.359
 and Assyria

00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:19.140
 will come

 and Egypt

00:18:20.539 --> 00:18:21.480
 into Assyria,

00:18:21.720 --> 00:18:22.160
 and the

00:18:22.160 --> 00:18:22.519
 Egyptians

00:18:22.519 --> 00:18:23.180
 will worship

00:18:23.180 --> 00:18:23.819
 with the

00:18:23.819 --> 00:18:24.400
 Assyrians.

00:18:25.519 --> 00:18:26.339
 In that

00:18:26.339 --> 00:18:26.640
 day,

00:18:27.519 --> 00:18:28.319
 Israel will

00:18:28.319 --> 00:18:28.640
 be a

00:18:28.640 --> 00:18:28.920
 third,

00:18:29.700 --> 00:18:30.640
 with Egypt

00:18:30.640 --> 00:18:31.759
 and Assyria,

00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:33.339
 a blessing

00:18:33.339 --> 00:18:34.299
 in the midst

00:18:34.299 --> 00:18:34.720
 of the

00:18:34.720 --> 00:18:35.039
 earth,

00:18:35.539 --> 00:18:36.059
 whom the

00:18:36.059 --> 00:18:36.440
 Lord of

00:18:36.440 --> 00:18:37.039
 hosts has

00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:37.460
 blessed,

00:18:37.759 --> 00:18:38.160
 saying,

00:18:38.539 --> 00:18:39.339
 Blessed be

00:18:39.339 --> 00:18:39.740
 Egypt,

00:18:39.859 --> 00:18:40.380
 my people,

00:18:41.220 --> 00:18:41.980
 and Assyria,

00:18:42.079 --> 00:18:42.420
 the work

00:18:42.420 --> 00:18:42.759
 of my

00:18:42.759 --> 00:18:43.259
 hands,

00:18:43.940 --> 00:18:44.680
 and Israel

00:18:44.680 --> 00:18:45.539
 my

00:18:45.539 --> 00:18:46.500
 inheritance.

00:18:47.640 --> 00:18:48.680
 For those

00:18:48.680 --> 00:18:49.460
 who would

00:18:49.460 --> 00:18:49.960
 be reading

00:18:49.960 --> 00:18:51.000
 this from

00:18:51.000 --> 00:18:51.500
 the nation

00:18:51.500 --> 00:18:52.039
 of Judah,

00:18:52.680 --> 00:18:53.039
 they would

00:18:53.039 --> 00:18:54.380
 stand back

00:18:54.380 --> 00:18:55.180
 aghast,

00:18:56.220 --> 00:18:56.740
 breathless,

00:18:57.200 --> 00:18:57.600
 speechless,

00:18:58.840 --> 00:18:59.840
 amazed at

00:18:59.840 --> 00:19:00.380
 the promise

00:19:00.380 --> 00:19:00.900
 of God

00:19:00.900 --> 00:19:01.460
 on a

00:19:01.460 --> 00:19:01.920
 people,

00:19:02.539 --> 00:19:03.200
 a people

00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:03.640
 of Egypt,

00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:04.259
 an empire

00:19:04.259 --> 00:19:04.920
 who had

00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:05.680
 been opposed

00:19:05.680 --> 00:19:06.400
 to God.

00:19:07.500 --> 00:19:07.680
 Well,

00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:08.160
 we find

00:19:08.160 --> 00:19:09.200
 in this

00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:09.680
 passage,

00:19:09.820 --> 00:19:10.660
 five promises

00:19:10.660 --> 00:19:11.120
 that God

00:19:11.120 --> 00:19:11.860
 gives to

00:19:11.860 --> 00:19:12.960
 the empire.

00:19:13.080 --> 00:19:13.360
 First,

00:19:13.460 --> 00:19:13.800
 we find

00:19:13.800 --> 00:19:14.140
 in verses

00:19:14.140 --> 00:19:14.820
 16 and

00:19:14.820 --> 00:19:15.220
 17,

00:19:15.779 --> 00:19:16.340
 we find

00:19:16.340 --> 00:19:16.800
 that they

00:19:16.800 --> 00:19:17.900
 will fear

00:19:17.900 --> 00:19:18.960
 the Lord.

00:19:19.720 --> 00:19:20.279
 They will

00:19:20.279 --> 00:19:21.519
 fear the

00:19:21.519 --> 00:19:21.860
 Lord.

00:19:23.540 --> 00:19:24.380
 I want you

00:19:24.380 --> 00:19:24.779
 to understand

00:19:24.779 --> 00:19:25.240
 this morning

00:19:25.240 --> 00:19:27.279
 that the

00:19:27.279 --> 00:19:28.180
 first step

00:19:28.180 --> 00:19:29.080
 towards any

00:19:29.080 --> 00:19:30.180
 reformation

00:19:30.180 --> 00:19:30.680
 in your

00:19:30.680 --> 00:19:31.100
 heart,

00:19:31.640 --> 00:19:33.000
 or anyone's

00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:33.400
 heart,

00:19:34.100 --> 00:19:34.700
 is a

00:19:34.700 --> 00:19:35.120
 healthy

00:19:35.120 --> 00:19:35.800
 fear,

00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:37.040
 reverence,

00:19:37.039 --> 00:19:38.059
 and respect

00:19:38.059 --> 00:19:39.039
 for God.

00:19:40.480 --> 00:19:41.259
 We find

00:19:41.259 --> 00:19:42.059
 this at the

00:19:42.059 --> 00:19:42.799
 beginning of

00:19:42.799 --> 00:19:43.139
 the book

00:19:43.139 --> 00:19:43.659
 in Isaiah

00:19:43.659 --> 00:19:44.500
 chapter 6.

00:19:44.700 --> 00:19:45.460
 As Isaiah

00:19:45.460 --> 00:19:46.220
 is standing

00:19:46.220 --> 00:19:46.799
 before the

00:19:46.799 --> 00:19:47.200
 throne,

00:19:47.579 --> 00:19:48.059
 we find

00:19:48.059 --> 00:19:48.799
 reverence

00:19:48.799 --> 00:19:49.619
 and fear

00:19:49.619 --> 00:19:50.460
 at the

00:19:50.460 --> 00:19:51.019
 presence

00:19:51.019 --> 00:19:51.799
 and the

00:19:51.799 --> 00:19:52.359
 image of

00:19:52.359 --> 00:19:52.659
 God.

00:19:52.879 --> 00:19:53.960
 He marvels

00:19:53.960 --> 00:19:54.639
 at the

00:19:54.639 --> 00:19:55.200
 grandeur

00:19:55.200 --> 00:19:55.460
 and the

00:19:55.460 --> 00:19:55.920
 glory

00:19:55.920 --> 00:19:56.819
 of the

00:19:56.819 --> 00:19:57.079
 Lord of

00:19:57.079 --> 00:19:57.460
 hosts.

00:19:58.799 --> 00:19:59.139
 He's

00:19:59.139 --> 00:19:59.680
 terrified

00:19:59.680 --> 00:20:00.119
 at the

00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:00.460
 God of

00:20:00.460 --> 00:20:00.720
 heaven.

00:20:02.779 --> 00:20:03.159
 Proper

00:20:03.159 --> 00:20:03.839
 fear has

00:20:03.839 --> 00:20:04.700
 always marked

00:20:04.700 --> 00:20:05.240
 the people

00:20:05.240 --> 00:20:05.960
 of God.

00:20:05.960 --> 00:20:07.059
 from the

00:20:07.059 --> 00:20:07.279
 very

00:20:07.279 --> 00:20:07.880
 beginnings.

00:20:08.920 --> 00:20:09.519
 Israel's

00:20:09.519 --> 00:20:10.019
 encounter

00:20:10.019 --> 00:20:10.600
 with God

00:20:10.600 --> 00:20:11.400
 at Mount

00:20:11.400 --> 00:20:12.019
 Sinai

00:20:12.019 --> 00:20:12.460
 was very

00:20:12.460 --> 00:20:12.860
 similar.

00:20:13.799 --> 00:20:14.279
 When God

00:20:14.279 --> 00:20:14.880
 comes down

00:20:14.880 --> 00:20:15.140
 to the

00:20:15.140 --> 00:20:15.579
 people and

00:20:15.579 --> 00:20:16.360
 he gives

00:20:16.360 --> 00:20:16.880
 them the

00:20:16.880 --> 00:20:17.220
 law,

00:20:18.559 --> 00:20:18.960
 we find

00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:19.200
 that they

00:20:19.200 --> 00:20:19.920
 actually plead

00:20:19.920 --> 00:20:20.579
 with Moses

00:20:20.579 --> 00:20:21.660
 to act

00:20:21.660 --> 00:20:22.120
 on their

00:20:22.120 --> 00:20:22.600
 behalf

00:20:22.600 --> 00:20:23.400
 as the

00:20:23.400 --> 00:20:24.019
 go-between

00:20:24.019 --> 00:20:25.279
 so they

00:20:25.279 --> 00:20:25.660
 don't have

00:20:25.660 --> 00:20:26.079
 to deal

00:20:26.079 --> 00:20:26.840
 with the

00:20:26.840 --> 00:20:27.380
 physical

00:20:27.380 --> 00:20:29.579
 presence

00:20:29.579 --> 00:20:30.120
 of God

00:20:30.120 --> 00:20:30.420
 in their

00:20:30.420 --> 00:20:30.860
 midst.

00:20:32.240 --> 00:20:33.079
 The people,

00:20:33.200 --> 00:20:33.600
 it says in

00:20:33.600 --> 00:20:33.860
 Exodus

00:20:33.860 --> 00:20:34.559
 chapter 20.

00:20:34.559 --> 00:20:35.759
 when the

00:20:35.759 --> 00:20:36.460
 people saw

00:20:36.460 --> 00:20:37.059
 the thunder

00:20:37.059 --> 00:20:37.379
 and the

00:20:37.379 --> 00:20:37.720
 lightning

00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:38.980
 and heard

00:20:38.980 --> 00:20:39.579
 the trumpet

00:20:39.579 --> 00:20:40.159
 and saw

00:20:40.159 --> 00:20:40.779
 the mountain

00:20:40.779 --> 00:20:41.899
 in the

00:20:41.899 --> 00:20:42.200
 smoke,

00:20:42.279 --> 00:20:42.919
 they trembled

00:20:42.919 --> 00:20:43.519
 with fear.

00:20:44.419 --> 00:20:44.980
 They say

00:20:44.980 --> 00:20:45.419
 to Moses,

00:20:45.659 --> 00:20:46.319
 speak to

00:20:46.319 --> 00:20:47.139
 us yourself

00:20:47.139 --> 00:20:47.940
 and we

00:20:47.940 --> 00:20:48.519
 will listen,

00:20:48.899 --> 00:20:49.440
 but do

00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:50.339
 not have

00:20:50.339 --> 00:20:51.039
 God speak

00:20:51.039 --> 00:20:51.619
 to us

00:20:51.619 --> 00:20:52.480
 or we

00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:52.859
 die.

00:20:54.599 --> 00:20:54.839
 A

00:20:54.839 --> 00:20:55.259
 people

00:20:55.259 --> 00:20:56.419
 who are

00:20:56.419 --> 00:20:56.679
 marked

00:20:56.679 --> 00:20:56.919
 by

00:20:56.919 --> 00:20:57.799
 transformation

00:20:57.799 --> 00:20:58.799
 are

00:20:58.799 --> 00:20:59.240
 people

00:20:59.240 --> 00:20:59.899
 who are

00:20:59.899 --> 00:21:00.440
 characterized

00:21:00.440 --> 00:21:01.839
 by fear

00:21:01.839 --> 00:21:03.259
 and respect

00:21:03.259 --> 00:21:04.079
 of God.

00:21:05.240 --> 00:21:05.660
 This was

00:21:05.660 --> 00:21:06.160
 not just

00:21:06.160 --> 00:21:06.599
 an Old

00:21:06.599 --> 00:21:06.980
 Testament

00:21:06.980 --> 00:21:07.819
 experience.

00:21:08.339 --> 00:21:08.839
 We see

00:21:08.839 --> 00:21:09.240
 this at

00:21:09.240 --> 00:21:09.660
 the beginnings

00:21:09.660 --> 00:21:10.140
 of the

00:21:10.140 --> 00:21:10.740
 New Testament

00:21:10.740 --> 00:21:11.279
 church.

00:21:11.859 --> 00:21:12.220
 It was

00:21:12.220 --> 00:21:12.420
 their

00:21:12.420 --> 00:21:12.980
 experience

00:21:12.980 --> 00:21:13.519
 as well.

00:21:14.339 --> 00:21:14.660
 When the

00:21:14.660 --> 00:21:15.559
 first converts

00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:16.200
 come and

00:21:16.200 --> 00:21:17.240
 respond to

00:21:17.240 --> 00:21:17.599
 the message

00:21:17.599 --> 00:21:17.819
 of the

00:21:17.819 --> 00:21:18.180
 gospel,

00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:18.640
 we find

00:21:18.640 --> 00:21:19.299
 there in

00:21:19.299 --> 00:21:19.539
 Acts

00:21:19.539 --> 00:21:20.039
 chapter 2,

00:21:20.119 --> 00:21:20.920
 they devoted

00:21:20.920 --> 00:21:21.680
 themselves to

00:21:21.680 --> 00:21:22.940
 the apostles'

00:21:22.940 --> 00:21:24.359
 teaching and

00:21:24.359 --> 00:21:24.859
 the fellowship,

00:21:25.299 --> 00:21:25.859
 to the breaking

00:21:25.859 --> 00:21:26.619
 of the bread

00:21:26.619 --> 00:21:27.440
 and to prayers,

00:21:27.680 --> 00:21:28.200
 and fear

00:21:28.200 --> 00:21:29.759
 came upon

00:21:29.759 --> 00:21:31.400
 every soul.

00:21:33.440 --> 00:21:34.059
 And John's

00:21:34.059 --> 00:21:35.700
 experience of

00:21:35.700 --> 00:21:36.259
 seeing the

00:21:36.259 --> 00:21:37.279
 glorified Christ

00:21:37.279 --> 00:21:38.220
 in Revelation

00:21:38.220 --> 00:21:39.940
 was much

00:21:39.940 --> 00:21:40.539
 the same.

00:21:41.819 --> 00:21:42.480
 We find in

00:21:42.480 --> 00:21:42.960
 Revelation

00:21:42.960 --> 00:21:43.740
 chapter 1,

00:21:44.740 --> 00:21:46.059
 when Christ

00:21:46.059 --> 00:21:46.819
 comes and

00:21:46.819 --> 00:21:47.599
 is delivering

00:21:47.599 --> 00:21:48.460
 his message,

00:21:49.619 --> 00:21:49.819
 it says,

00:21:49.920 --> 00:21:50.359
 I turned

00:21:50.359 --> 00:21:50.839
 and saw

00:21:50.839 --> 00:21:51.359
 the voice

00:21:51.359 --> 00:21:51.879
 that spoke

00:21:51.879 --> 00:21:52.279
 with me,

00:21:52.420 --> 00:21:53.160
 and there

00:21:53.160 --> 00:21:53.700
 was one

00:21:53.700 --> 00:21:54.160
 like the

00:21:54.160 --> 00:21:54.440
 Son of

00:21:54.440 --> 00:21:54.740
 Man,

00:21:55.500 --> 00:21:55.859
 clothed

00:21:55.859 --> 00:21:56.099
 with a

00:21:56.099 --> 00:21:56.379
 garment

00:21:56.379 --> 00:21:56.819
 down to

00:21:56.819 --> 00:21:57.240
 his feet

00:21:57.240 --> 00:21:57.740
 and girded

00:21:57.740 --> 00:21:58.259
 about the

00:21:58.259 --> 00:21:58.599
 chest

00:21:58.599 --> 00:21:58.960
 with a

00:21:58.960 --> 00:21:59.259
 golden

00:21:59.259 --> 00:21:59.740
 band.

00:22:00.539 --> 00:22:01.079
 His head

00:22:01.079 --> 00:22:01.460
 and hair

00:22:01.460 --> 00:22:01.879
 were white

00:22:01.879 --> 00:22:02.500
 like wool,

00:22:03.079 --> 00:22:03.460
 as white

00:22:03.460 --> 00:22:03.960
 as snow,

00:22:04.019 --> 00:22:04.680
 and his eyes

00:22:04.680 --> 00:22:05.379
 like a flame

00:22:05.379 --> 00:22:05.879
 of fire.

00:22:06.480 --> 00:22:07.140
 His feet

00:22:07.140 --> 00:22:07.500
 were like

00:22:07.500 --> 00:22:08.359
 fine brass,

00:22:08.420 --> 00:22:09.279
 as if refined

00:22:09.279 --> 00:22:09.779
 in a furnace,

00:22:10.420 --> 00:22:11.140
 and his voice

00:22:11.140 --> 00:22:11.940
 as the sound

00:22:11.940 --> 00:22:12.700
 of many waters.

00:22:13.700 --> 00:22:14.160
 He had

00:22:14.160 --> 00:22:14.819
 in his hand

00:22:14.819 --> 00:22:15.339
 the seven

00:22:15.339 --> 00:22:15.839
 stars,

00:22:16.259 --> 00:22:16.759
 and out of

00:22:16.759 --> 00:22:17.460
 his mouth

00:22:17.460 --> 00:22:18.099
 went a sharp

00:22:18.099 --> 00:22:18.480
 two-edged

00:22:18.480 --> 00:22:18.980
 sword,

00:22:19.279 --> 00:22:19.680
 and his

00:22:19.680 --> 00:22:20.480
 countenance

00:22:20.480 --> 00:22:21.119
 was like

00:22:21.119 --> 00:22:21.759
 the shining

00:22:21.759 --> 00:22:22.440
 sun in

00:22:22.440 --> 00:22:23.220
 its strength.

00:22:23.700 --> 00:22:24.220
 And when

00:22:24.220 --> 00:22:24.920
 I saw

00:22:24.920 --> 00:22:25.220
 him,

00:22:25.299 --> 00:22:25.920
 I fell

00:22:25.920 --> 00:22:26.539
 to the

00:22:26.539 --> 00:22:27.019
 ground

00:22:27.019 --> 00:22:27.920
 as dead.

00:22:27.920 --> 00:22:30.920
 in that

00:22:30.920 --> 00:22:31.240
 day,

00:22:32.240 --> 00:22:32.519
 there will

00:22:32.519 --> 00:22:33.340
 finally be

00:22:33.340 --> 00:22:34.220
 sight for

00:22:34.220 --> 00:22:34.740
 the people

00:22:34.740 --> 00:22:35.519
 of Egypt

00:22:35.519 --> 00:22:36.000
 and will

00:22:36.000 --> 00:22:36.680
 lead them

00:22:36.680 --> 00:22:37.420
 to fear.

00:22:38.380 --> 00:22:38.700
 It will

00:22:38.700 --> 00:22:39.240
 lead them

00:22:39.240 --> 00:22:40.300
 to understand

00:22:40.300 --> 00:22:41.560
 the power

00:22:41.560 --> 00:22:42.279
 in the

00:22:42.279 --> 00:22:42.640
 presence

00:22:42.640 --> 00:22:43.420
 of God.

00:22:44.420 --> 00:22:45.120
 And as a

00:22:45.120 --> 00:22:45.460
 people,

00:22:45.620 --> 00:22:45.860
 it will

00:22:45.860 --> 00:22:47.240
 move them

00:22:47.240 --> 00:22:48.180
 down the

00:22:48.180 --> 00:22:48.680
 road of

00:22:48.680 --> 00:22:49.180
 worship

00:22:49.180 --> 00:22:50.340
 and reverence

00:22:50.340 --> 00:22:51.380
 to the

00:22:51.380 --> 00:22:51.800
 almighty

00:22:51.800 --> 00:22:52.340
 God,

00:22:52.660 --> 00:22:53.060
 the God

00:22:53.060 --> 00:22:53.539
 of Israel.

00:22:53.539 --> 00:22:54.700
 it will

00:22:54.700 --> 00:22:55.180
 lead them

00:22:55.180 --> 00:22:56.619
 to proper

00:22:56.619 --> 00:22:57.279
 worship

00:22:57.279 --> 00:22:58.000
 of him,

00:22:58.980 --> 00:22:59.480
 devotion

00:22:59.480 --> 00:23:00.619
 to

00:23:00.619 --> 00:23:01.659
 serving

00:23:01.659 --> 00:23:02.019
 him

00:23:02.019 --> 00:23:02.359
 and to

00:23:02.359 --> 00:23:02.619
 loving

00:23:02.619 --> 00:23:02.899
 him,

00:23:02.980 --> 00:23:03.200
 as we

00:23:03.200 --> 00:23:03.619
 find

00:23:03.619 --> 00:23:03.879
 throughout

00:23:03.879 --> 00:23:04.299
 the rest

00:23:04.299 --> 00:23:04.940
 of this

00:23:04.940 --> 00:23:05.819
 chapter

00:23:05.819 --> 00:23:06.200
 this

00:23:06.200 --> 00:23:06.500
 morning.

00:23:07.980 --> 00:23:08.980
 It begins

00:23:08.980 --> 00:23:09.599
 with fear,

00:23:09.680 --> 00:23:09.859
 but it

00:23:09.859 --> 00:23:10.339
 doesn't end

00:23:10.339 --> 00:23:10.579
 there.

00:23:11.299 --> 00:23:12.019
 It moves

00:23:12.019 --> 00:23:12.359
 to the

00:23:12.359 --> 00:23:12.920
 next level,

00:23:13.039 --> 00:23:13.279
 which we

00:23:13.279 --> 00:23:14.279
 find in

00:23:14.279 --> 00:23:15.159
 verse 18.

00:23:16.519 --> 00:23:16.920
 What do we

00:23:16.920 --> 00:23:17.559
 find there?

00:23:17.659 --> 00:23:17.879
 It says,

00:23:18.000 --> 00:23:18.480
 in that

00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:18.920
 day,

00:23:19.279 --> 00:23:20.039
 five cities

00:23:20.039 --> 00:23:20.279
 of the

00:23:20.279 --> 00:23:20.619
 land of

00:23:20.619 --> 00:23:20.879
 Egypt

00:23:20.879 --> 00:23:21.579
 will speak

00:23:21.579 --> 00:23:22.579
 the language

00:23:22.579 --> 00:23:23.319
 of Canaan.

00:23:24.279 --> 00:23:24.819
 They will

00:23:24.819 --> 00:23:25.599
 learn the

00:23:25.599 --> 00:23:26.139
 language

00:23:26.139 --> 00:23:27.019
 of Canaan.

00:23:28.720 --> 00:23:29.339
 Now,

00:23:29.379 --> 00:23:29.619
 you might

00:23:29.619 --> 00:23:30.000
 not think

00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:30.299
 that's a

00:23:30.299 --> 00:23:30.679
 big deal,

00:23:31.939 --> 00:23:32.740
 but so

00:23:32.740 --> 00:23:33.379
 dramatic

00:23:33.379 --> 00:23:34.019
 their fear

00:23:34.019 --> 00:23:34.500
 of God

00:23:34.500 --> 00:23:35.039
 that they

00:23:35.039 --> 00:23:35.799
 adopt a

00:23:35.799 --> 00:23:36.179
 new

00:23:36.179 --> 00:23:36.960
 national

00:23:36.960 --> 00:23:37.699
 language.

00:23:38.399 --> 00:23:39.079
 In these

00:23:39.079 --> 00:23:40.079
 five cities

00:23:40.079 --> 00:23:40.779
 that are

00:23:40.779 --> 00:23:41.379
 the prominent

00:23:41.379 --> 00:23:42.220
 cities

00:23:42.220 --> 00:23:42.960
 of Egypt,

00:23:43.639 --> 00:23:44.220
 they have

00:23:44.220 --> 00:23:44.879
 determined

00:23:44.879 --> 00:23:45.419
 to be a

00:23:45.419 --> 00:23:45.819
 people

00:23:45.819 --> 00:23:46.539
 wholly

00:23:46.539 --> 00:23:47.179
 devoted to

00:23:47.179 --> 00:23:47.539
 God in

00:23:47.539 --> 00:23:48.139
 every way,

00:23:48.980 --> 00:23:49.519
 so much

00:23:49.519 --> 00:23:49.879
 so that

00:23:49.879 --> 00:23:50.359
 they speak

00:23:50.359 --> 00:23:50.980
 the language

00:23:50.980 --> 00:23:51.519
 of Canaan.

00:23:52.579 --> 00:23:53.419
 The

00:23:53.419 --> 00:23:53.699
 verbal

00:23:53.699 --> 00:23:54.679
 form of

00:23:54.679 --> 00:23:55.319
 this

00:23:55.319 --> 00:23:56.679
 word

00:23:56.679 --> 00:23:58.799
 emphasizes

00:23:58.799 --> 00:23:59.199
 the

00:23:59.199 --> 00:24:00.199
 continuance

00:24:00.199 --> 00:24:01.439
 of their

00:24:01.439 --> 00:24:02.059
 speaking,

00:24:02.460 --> 00:24:03.179
 so that

00:24:03.179 --> 00:24:03.619
 they actually

00:24:03.619 --> 00:24:04.319
 adopt the

00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:05.099
 language as

00:24:05.099 --> 00:24:05.460
 their own,

00:24:05.519 --> 00:24:05.919
 not just

00:24:05.919 --> 00:24:06.559
 speak it as

00:24:06.559 --> 00:24:07.119
 a secondary

00:24:07.119 --> 00:24:07.859
 part,

00:24:07.919 --> 00:24:08.099
 but it

00:24:08.099 --> 00:24:08.759
 now becomes

00:24:08.759 --> 00:24:09.960
 the national

00:24:09.960 --> 00:24:10.699
 language

00:24:10.699 --> 00:24:11.720
 of Egypt.

00:24:13.019 --> 00:24:13.740
 It's

00:24:13.740 --> 00:24:14.319
 typical of

00:24:14.319 --> 00:24:14.699
 Isaiah

00:24:14.699 --> 00:24:16.419
 in connecting

00:24:16.419 --> 00:24:17.399
 speaking

00:24:17.399 --> 00:24:18.779
 with worship.

00:24:19.740 --> 00:24:20.079
 What do we

00:24:20.079 --> 00:24:20.659
 find again

00:24:20.660 --> 00:24:21.000
 there in

00:24:21.000 --> 00:24:21.320
 Isaiah

00:24:21.320 --> 00:24:22.060
 chapter 6?

00:24:22.860 --> 00:24:23.120
 There's

00:24:23.120 --> 00:24:23.480
 Isaiah

00:24:23.480 --> 00:24:23.940
 before the

00:24:23.940 --> 00:24:24.240
 throne,

00:24:24.340 --> 00:24:24.540
 and he

00:24:24.540 --> 00:24:24.940
 says,

00:24:25.279 --> 00:24:25.720
 I am a

00:24:25.720 --> 00:24:26.100
 man of

00:24:26.100 --> 00:24:26.759
 unclean

00:24:26.759 --> 00:24:27.560
 lips.

00:24:28.820 --> 00:24:29.120
 Isaiah

00:24:29.120 --> 00:24:29.880
 understands

00:24:29.880 --> 00:24:30.680
 that speaking

00:24:30.680 --> 00:24:32.040
 and worship

00:24:32.040 --> 00:24:32.680
 go hand

00:24:32.680 --> 00:24:33.140
 in hand.

00:24:34.180 --> 00:24:34.519
 And so

00:24:34.519 --> 00:24:35.259
 in describing

00:24:35.259 --> 00:24:36.060
 this people

00:24:36.060 --> 00:24:36.519
 as a

00:24:36.519 --> 00:24:37.080
 people who

00:24:37.080 --> 00:24:38.060
 have adopted

00:24:38.060 --> 00:24:38.820
 the language

00:24:38.820 --> 00:24:39.460
 of Canaan,

00:24:39.779 --> 00:24:40.080
 he is

00:24:40.080 --> 00:24:40.980
 helping to

00:24:40.980 --> 00:24:42.000
 underscore

00:24:42.000 --> 00:24:42.500
 the fact

00:24:42.500 --> 00:24:42.779
 that this

00:24:42.779 --> 00:24:43.600
 people is

00:24:43.600 --> 00:24:44.060
 a people

00:24:44.060 --> 00:24:44.660
 who have

00:24:44.660 --> 00:24:45.080
 committed

00:24:45.080 --> 00:24:45.680
 themselves

00:24:45.680 --> 00:24:46.440
 completely

00:24:46.440 --> 00:24:47.600
 to the

00:24:47.600 --> 00:24:47.920
 worship

00:24:47.920 --> 00:24:48.500
 of God.

00:24:50.180 --> 00:24:50.680
 In

00:24:50.680 --> 00:24:51.019
 adopting

00:24:51.019 --> 00:24:51.240
 the

00:24:51.240 --> 00:24:51.539
 language

00:24:51.539 --> 00:24:51.720
 of

00:24:51.720 --> 00:24:51.980
 Canaan,

00:24:52.059 --> 00:24:52.160
 they

00:24:52.160 --> 00:24:52.640
 speak,

00:24:53.400 --> 00:24:54.019
 it speaks

00:24:54.019 --> 00:24:55.200
 to accomplish

00:24:55.200 --> 00:24:55.920
 several

00:24:55.920 --> 00:24:56.620
 purposes,

00:24:57.259 --> 00:24:57.700
 several

00:24:57.700 --> 00:24:58.220
 objectives.

00:24:59.279 --> 00:24:59.900
 It will

00:24:59.900 --> 00:25:00.320
 not only

00:25:00.320 --> 00:25:00.759
 help to

00:25:00.759 --> 00:25:01.539
 assist them

00:25:01.539 --> 00:25:02.259
 in their

00:25:02.259 --> 00:25:02.820
 relationships

00:25:02.820 --> 00:25:03.500
 with Israel,

00:25:04.380 --> 00:25:05.420
 to aid

00:25:05.420 --> 00:25:05.799
 them in

00:25:05.799 --> 00:25:06.340
 their study

00:25:06.340 --> 00:25:06.660
 of the

00:25:06.660 --> 00:25:06.960
 scripture,

00:25:08.420 --> 00:25:08.960
 and to

00:25:08.960 --> 00:25:09.460
 allow them

00:25:09.460 --> 00:25:09.940
 to travel

00:25:09.940 --> 00:25:10.559
 to Jerusalem

00:25:10.559 --> 00:25:10.880
 without

00:25:10.880 --> 00:25:11.420
 barriers,

00:25:12.420 --> 00:25:13.039
 but it

00:25:13.039 --> 00:25:13.299
 will also

00:25:13.299 --> 00:25:13.779
 give them

00:25:13.779 --> 00:25:14.559
 full access

00:25:14.559 --> 00:25:15.440
 to everything

00:25:15.440 --> 00:25:16.179
 that is

00:25:16.179 --> 00:25:16.559
 available

00:25:16.559 --> 00:25:17.000
 to the

00:25:17.000 --> 00:25:17.359
 people

00:25:17.359 --> 00:25:18.059
 of God

00:25:18.059 --> 00:25:18.740
 without

00:25:18.740 --> 00:25:19.579
 restriction.

00:25:21.240 --> 00:25:21.379
 Their

00:25:21.379 --> 00:25:21.919
 interest

00:25:21.919 --> 00:25:22.919
 is full

00:25:22.919 --> 00:25:23.679
 allegiance

00:25:23.679 --> 00:25:24.419
 to the

00:25:24.419 --> 00:25:24.720
 Lord of

00:25:24.720 --> 00:25:24.940
 hosts.

00:25:25.039 --> 00:25:25.759
 We find

00:25:25.759 --> 00:25:26.159
 that there

00:25:26.159 --> 00:25:26.519
 in verse

00:25:26.519 --> 00:25:26.919
 18.

00:25:29.500 --> 00:25:30.519
 It says,

00:25:32.299 --> 00:25:32.539
 they will

00:25:32.539 --> 00:25:33.279
 speak the

00:25:33.279 --> 00:25:33.919
 language of

00:25:33.919 --> 00:25:34.500
 Canaan and

00:25:34.500 --> 00:25:35.919
 swear allegiance

00:25:35.919 --> 00:25:36.740
 to the

00:25:36.740 --> 00:25:37.700
 Lord of

00:25:37.700 --> 00:25:38.079
 hosts.

00:25:39.159 --> 00:25:39.419
 Their

00:25:39.419 --> 00:25:39.839
 commitment

00:25:39.839 --> 00:25:40.460
 is allegiance

00:25:40.460 --> 00:25:41.299
 to the

00:25:41.299 --> 00:25:41.700
 God of

00:25:41.700 --> 00:25:42.059
 Israel.

00:25:43.740 --> 00:25:44.179
 Allegiance

00:25:44.180 --> 00:25:44.700
 that shows

00:25:44.700 --> 00:25:45.180
 up in

00:25:45.180 --> 00:25:45.539
 full

00:25:45.539 --> 00:25:46.279
 conformity

00:25:46.279 --> 00:25:46.700
 with

00:25:46.700 --> 00:25:47.340
 everything

00:25:47.340 --> 00:25:47.860
 Hebrew.

00:25:49.180 --> 00:25:49.519
 This is

00:25:49.519 --> 00:25:50.060
 yet another

00:25:50.060 --> 00:25:51.259
 critical step

00:25:51.259 --> 00:25:52.600
 in the

00:25:52.600 --> 00:25:53.180
 nation's

00:25:53.180 --> 00:25:54.240
 reformation.

00:25:55.680 --> 00:25:56.080
 I'm not

00:25:56.080 --> 00:25:56.420
 sure if

00:25:56.420 --> 00:25:56.759
 you're aware

00:25:56.759 --> 00:25:57.160
 of this,

00:25:57.360 --> 00:25:58.320
 but when

00:25:58.320 --> 00:25:59.060
 our own

00:25:59.060 --> 00:25:59.560
 nation

00:25:59.560 --> 00:26:00.740
 began to

00:26:00.740 --> 00:26:01.320
 be started,

00:26:02.100 --> 00:26:02.380
 Hebrew

00:26:02.380 --> 00:26:03.400
 was actually

00:26:03.400 --> 00:26:04.640
 recommended

00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:05.500
 as one

00:26:05.500 --> 00:26:06.100
 of our

00:26:06.100 --> 00:26:06.560
 own

00:26:06.560 --> 00:26:06.980
 national

00:26:06.980 --> 00:26:07.360
 languages.

00:26:07.460 --> 00:26:07.660
 Did you

00:26:07.660 --> 00:26:07.980
 know that?

00:26:09.340 --> 00:26:09.860
 William

00:26:09.860 --> 00:26:10.380
 Bradford,

00:26:10.440 --> 00:26:10.820
 who came

00:26:10.820 --> 00:26:11.500
 over on

00:26:11.500 --> 00:26:12.200
 the Mayflower

00:26:12.200 --> 00:26:13.900
 with the

00:26:13.900 --> 00:26:14.400
 pilgrims,

00:26:14.519 --> 00:26:15.180
 were so

00:26:15.180 --> 00:26:15.819
 committed to

00:26:15.819 --> 00:26:16.279
 the scripture

00:26:16.279 --> 00:26:17.299
 and so

00:26:17.299 --> 00:26:18.400
 desirous to

00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:18.900
 be people

00:26:18.900 --> 00:26:19.519
 of God

00:26:19.519 --> 00:26:20.680
 that they

00:26:20.680 --> 00:26:21.480
 actually voted

00:26:21.480 --> 00:26:22.340
 as a

00:26:22.340 --> 00:26:22.779
 colony,

00:26:23.140 --> 00:26:23.880
 what language

00:26:23.880 --> 00:26:24.180
 would be

00:26:24.180 --> 00:26:24.500
 learned?

00:26:25.460 --> 00:26:26.140
 Hebrew was

00:26:26.140 --> 00:26:27.740
 close to the

00:26:27.740 --> 00:26:28.160
 top of the

00:26:28.160 --> 00:26:28.620
 list and

00:26:28.620 --> 00:26:29.660
 only voted

00:26:29.660 --> 00:26:30.200
 down by

00:26:30.200 --> 00:26:30.860
 one vote.

00:26:31.819 --> 00:26:32.059
 We were

00:26:32.059 --> 00:26:32.880
 almost Hebrew

00:26:32.880 --> 00:26:33.440
 speakers.

00:26:35.080 --> 00:26:35.720
 And

00:26:35.720 --> 00:26:36.600
 apparently at the

00:26:36.600 --> 00:26:37.340
 founding of the

00:26:37.340 --> 00:26:38.259
 nation in

00:26:38.259 --> 00:26:39.360
 1780,

00:26:39.359 --> 00:26:40.639
 when George

00:26:40.639 --> 00:26:41.599
 Washington was

00:26:41.599 --> 00:26:42.299
 making his

00:26:42.299 --> 00:26:42.779
 way to the

00:26:42.779 --> 00:26:43.259
 presidency,

00:26:43.719 --> 00:26:44.139
 one of his

00:26:44.139 --> 00:26:45.819
 companions was

00:26:45.819 --> 00:26:46.379
 a strong

00:26:46.379 --> 00:26:47.459
 advocate for

00:26:47.459 --> 00:26:48.459
 Hebrew as

00:26:48.459 --> 00:26:48.979
 being the

00:26:48.979 --> 00:26:49.339
 national

00:26:49.339 --> 00:26:49.899
 language.

00:26:50.740 --> 00:26:51.439
 As a result

00:26:51.439 --> 00:26:52.319
 of their

00:26:52.319 --> 00:26:53.699
 animosity

00:26:53.699 --> 00:26:54.819
 towards England

00:26:54.819 --> 00:26:55.539
 and the desire

00:26:55.539 --> 00:26:56.279
 again to be a

00:26:56.279 --> 00:26:57.039
 people of God.

00:26:57.240 --> 00:26:57.939
 How can we do

00:26:57.939 --> 00:26:58.699
 this effectively?

00:26:58.899 --> 00:26:59.659
 Well, we do

00:26:59.659 --> 00:27:00.579
 this by learning

00:27:00.579 --> 00:27:01.279
 the language

00:27:01.279 --> 00:27:02.219
 of Hebrew.

00:27:03.919 --> 00:27:04.659
 And even in

00:27:04.659 --> 00:27:05.699
 the older

00:27:05.699 --> 00:27:06.879
 institutions like

00:27:06.879 --> 00:27:07.579
 Yale and

00:27:07.579 --> 00:27:07.959
 Harvard,

00:27:08.259 --> 00:27:09.099
 it was required

00:27:09.099 --> 00:27:09.719
 that all the

00:27:09.719 --> 00:27:10.159
 students that

00:27:10.159 --> 00:27:10.579
 went would

00:27:10.579 --> 00:27:11.339
 learn Hebrew.

00:27:12.079 --> 00:27:12.839
 So much so

00:27:12.839 --> 00:27:13.859
 that even the

00:27:13.859 --> 00:27:14.919
 commencement addresses

00:27:14.919 --> 00:27:15.439
 were actually

00:27:15.439 --> 00:27:16.199
 given in

00:27:16.199 --> 00:27:16.659
 Hebrew.

00:27:18.339 --> 00:27:19.119
 How about

00:27:19.119 --> 00:27:19.679
 that for

00:27:19.679 --> 00:27:20.319
 history?

00:27:21.599 --> 00:27:22.480
 There is

00:27:22.480 --> 00:27:22.959
 something

00:27:22.959 --> 00:27:23.599
 significant

00:27:23.599 --> 00:27:24.379
 about language.

00:27:25.579 --> 00:27:25.939
 Language

00:27:25.939 --> 00:27:26.799
 communicates

00:27:26.799 --> 00:27:27.359
 devotion.

00:27:28.240 --> 00:27:29.000
 It communicates

00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:29.659
 commitment.

00:27:31.039 --> 00:27:31.299
 And as

00:27:31.299 --> 00:27:32.000
 English speakers,

00:27:32.179 --> 00:27:33.119
 we show the

00:27:33.119 --> 00:27:33.740
 roots of where

00:27:33.740 --> 00:27:34.259
 we've come.

00:27:35.699 --> 00:27:36.219
 As English

00:27:36.219 --> 00:27:36.679
 speakers,

00:27:36.899 --> 00:27:38.299
 especially here

00:27:38.299 --> 00:27:38.719
 in America,

00:27:38.720 --> 00:27:39.400
 we identify

00:27:39.400 --> 00:27:40.660
 ourselves with

00:27:40.660 --> 00:27:41.620
 a country,

00:27:42.299 --> 00:27:43.079
 a lifestyle,

00:27:44.079 --> 00:27:44.559
 a way of

00:27:44.559 --> 00:27:44.960
 thinking,

00:27:45.160 --> 00:27:46.019
 certain priorities

00:27:46.019 --> 00:27:46.740
 and attitudes.

00:27:47.839 --> 00:27:48.279
 It fits

00:27:48.279 --> 00:27:49.620
 various stereotypes

00:27:49.620 --> 00:27:50.880
 and distinguishes

00:27:50.880 --> 00:27:52.059
 us as a

00:27:52.059 --> 00:27:53.259
 people different

00:27:53.259 --> 00:27:53.799
 from the rest

00:27:53.799 --> 00:27:54.279
 of the world.

00:27:55.420 --> 00:27:55.900
 And in a

00:27:55.900 --> 00:27:56.480
 similar way,

00:27:56.559 --> 00:27:57.620
 Egypt is

00:27:57.620 --> 00:27:58.559
 desiring to

00:27:58.559 --> 00:27:59.559
 conform their

00:27:59.559 --> 00:28:00.420
 lives and their

00:28:00.420 --> 00:28:01.200
 hearts and their

00:28:01.200 --> 00:28:02.579
 lifestyle to

00:28:02.579 --> 00:28:03.740
 the God of

00:28:03.740 --> 00:28:04.299
 Israel by

00:28:04.299 --> 00:28:05.759
 learning the

00:28:05.759 --> 00:28:06.160
 language.

00:28:06.160 --> 00:28:06.400
 language.

00:28:07.940 --> 00:28:08.640
 And this

00:28:08.640 --> 00:28:09.320
 sets them

00:28:09.320 --> 00:28:10.720
 up to

00:28:10.720 --> 00:28:11.160
 take them

00:28:11.160 --> 00:28:11.519
 to the

00:28:11.519 --> 00:28:12.420
 next level

00:28:12.420 --> 00:28:12.980
 of devotion

00:28:12.980 --> 00:28:13.340
 which we

00:28:13.340 --> 00:28:14.259
 find in

00:28:14.259 --> 00:28:15.040
 verses 19

00:28:15.040 --> 00:28:15.560
 to 22.

00:28:16.720 --> 00:28:17.519
 We find

00:28:17.519 --> 00:28:17.920
 in these

00:28:17.920 --> 00:28:18.480
 verses that

00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:18.880
 they will

00:28:18.880 --> 00:28:19.500
 build an

00:28:19.500 --> 00:28:20.040
 altar to

00:28:20.040 --> 00:28:20.560
 the God

00:28:20.560 --> 00:28:21.400
 of Israel.

00:28:21.940 --> 00:28:22.500
 They will

00:28:22.500 --> 00:28:22.820
 build an

00:28:22.820 --> 00:28:23.300
 altar to

00:28:23.300 --> 00:28:23.620
 the God

00:28:23.620 --> 00:28:24.040
 of Israel.

00:28:24.820 --> 00:28:25.300
 We find

00:28:25.300 --> 00:28:25.980
 there in

00:28:25.980 --> 00:28:26.560
 verse 19,

00:28:26.559 --> 00:28:27.319
 in that

00:28:27.319 --> 00:28:27.980
 day there

00:28:27.980 --> 00:28:28.460
 will be

00:28:28.460 --> 00:28:28.919
 an altar

00:28:28.919 --> 00:28:29.839
 to the

00:28:29.839 --> 00:28:30.460
 Lord in

00:28:30.460 --> 00:28:30.940
 the midst

00:28:30.940 --> 00:28:31.419
 of the

00:28:31.419 --> 00:28:32.019
 land of

00:28:32.019 --> 00:28:33.319
 Egypt and

00:28:33.319 --> 00:28:34.139
 a pillar to

00:28:34.139 --> 00:28:34.599
 the Lord

00:28:34.599 --> 00:28:35.039
 at its

00:28:35.039 --> 00:28:35.359
 border.

00:28:37.039 --> 00:28:37.619
 What began

00:28:37.619 --> 00:28:39.259
 as a case

00:28:39.259 --> 00:28:40.240
 for five

00:28:40.240 --> 00:28:41.679
 cities in

00:28:41.679 --> 00:28:42.720
 this empire

00:28:42.720 --> 00:28:43.740
 of Egypt

00:28:43.740 --> 00:28:44.679
 committing

00:28:44.679 --> 00:28:45.639
 themselves to

00:28:45.639 --> 00:28:46.299
 devotion of

00:28:46.299 --> 00:28:46.799
 God now

00:28:46.799 --> 00:28:48.339
 pours out

00:28:48.339 --> 00:28:49.359
 onto the

00:28:49.359 --> 00:28:50.200
 rest of the

00:28:50.200 --> 00:28:51.179
 land itself.

00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:52.899
 The heart

00:28:52.899 --> 00:28:53.940
 has begun

00:28:53.940 --> 00:28:54.559
 to affect

00:28:54.559 --> 00:28:55.039
 the whole.

00:28:56.559 --> 00:28:56.980
 And a

00:28:56.980 --> 00:28:57.639
 whole nation

00:28:57.639 --> 00:28:58.919
 is captured

00:28:58.919 --> 00:29:00.440
 with devotion

00:29:00.440 --> 00:29:01.119
 and worship

00:29:01.119 --> 00:29:01.740
 to God.

00:29:02.519 --> 00:29:03.359
 This pillar

00:29:03.359 --> 00:29:04.259
 is erected

00:29:04.259 --> 00:29:05.799
 in Egypt

00:29:05.799 --> 00:29:06.759
 of worship

00:29:06.759 --> 00:29:07.679
 to God.

00:29:08.700 --> 00:29:09.059
 And we

00:29:09.059 --> 00:29:09.639
 find the

00:29:09.639 --> 00:29:10.240
 marks of

00:29:10.240 --> 00:29:11.099
 the genuine

00:29:11.099 --> 00:29:11.960
 nature of

00:29:11.960 --> 00:29:12.579
 their religion

00:29:12.579 --> 00:29:13.559
 here throughout

00:29:13.559 --> 00:29:14.139
 the rest of

00:29:14.139 --> 00:29:14.619
 these verses.

00:29:15.740 --> 00:29:17.099
 In verse 19

00:29:17.099 --> 00:29:18.019
 we see

00:29:18.019 --> 00:29:18.619
 an altar.

00:29:19.639 --> 00:29:20.099
 We see

00:29:20.099 --> 00:29:21.099
 a place

00:29:21.099 --> 00:29:22.159
 of reconciliation.

00:29:23.200 --> 00:29:23.859
 A place

00:29:23.859 --> 00:29:24.740
 of communion.

00:29:24.960 --> 00:29:25.339
 A place

00:29:25.339 --> 00:29:26.179
 of repentance.

00:29:26.180 --> 00:29:26.720
 A place

00:29:26.720 --> 00:29:27.960
 of sacrifice.

00:29:28.860 --> 00:29:29.480
 A place

00:29:29.480 --> 00:29:30.480
 of approaching

00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:31.420
 the God

00:29:31.420 --> 00:29:31.920
 of Israel

00:29:31.920 --> 00:29:32.779
 on his

00:29:32.779 --> 00:29:33.299
 terms.

00:29:35.000 --> 00:29:35.660
 In verse

00:29:35.660 --> 00:29:36.019
 20

00:29:36.019 --> 00:29:37.759
 at the end

00:29:37.759 --> 00:29:38.340
 of the verse

00:29:38.340 --> 00:29:38.720
 it says

00:29:38.720 --> 00:29:39.420
 it will be a

00:29:39.420 --> 00:29:40.200
 sign and a

00:29:40.200 --> 00:29:40.840
 witness to the

00:29:40.840 --> 00:29:41.500
 Lord of hosts

00:29:41.500 --> 00:29:42.340
 in the land

00:29:42.340 --> 00:29:42.740
 of Egypt

00:29:42.740 --> 00:29:43.920
 when they cry

00:29:43.920 --> 00:29:44.799
 to the Lord

00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:45.480
 because of

00:29:45.480 --> 00:29:46.160
 their oppressors

00:29:46.160 --> 00:29:47.420
 he will send

00:29:47.420 --> 00:29:48.440
 them a

00:29:48.440 --> 00:29:48.860
 savior

00:29:48.860 --> 00:29:50.120
 and a

00:29:50.120 --> 00:29:50.539
 defender.

00:29:51.259 --> 00:29:51.680
 There is

00:29:51.680 --> 00:29:52.140
 prayer.

00:29:53.100 --> 00:29:53.580
 So there is

00:29:53.580 --> 00:29:54.299
 not only an

00:29:54.299 --> 00:29:54.980
 altar but there

00:29:54.980 --> 00:29:55.519
 is also

00:29:55.519 --> 00:29:55.960
 prayer.

00:29:56.139 --> 00:29:56.759
 There is

00:29:56.759 --> 00:29:57.519
 a commitment

00:29:57.519 --> 00:29:58.139
 to the

00:29:58.139 --> 00:29:58.680
 protection

00:29:58.680 --> 00:29:59.779
 and security

00:29:59.779 --> 00:30:00.500
 and help

00:30:00.500 --> 00:30:01.099
 of God.

00:30:02.660 --> 00:30:03.460
 In verse

00:30:03.460 --> 00:30:04.200
 21 we

00:30:04.200 --> 00:30:04.720
 find that

00:30:04.720 --> 00:30:05.000
 there is

00:30:05.000 --> 00:30:05.619
 revelation.

00:30:07.059 --> 00:30:07.400
 The Lord

00:30:07.400 --> 00:30:08.019
 will reveal

00:30:08.019 --> 00:30:08.940
 himself to

00:30:08.940 --> 00:30:09.240
 them.

00:30:10.180 --> 00:30:10.599
 Look with

00:30:10.599 --> 00:30:10.839
 me at

00:30:10.839 --> 00:30:11.379
 verse 21

00:30:11.379 --> 00:30:11.799
 and the

00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:12.099
 Lord

00:30:12.099 --> 00:30:13.460
 will make

00:30:13.460 --> 00:30:14.039
 himself

00:30:14.039 --> 00:30:14.519
 known

00:30:14.519 --> 00:30:15.519
 to the

00:30:15.519 --> 00:30:15.960
 Egyptians

00:30:15.960 --> 00:30:17.779
 and the

00:30:17.779 --> 00:30:18.180
 Egyptians

00:30:18.180 --> 00:30:18.900
 will know

00:30:18.900 --> 00:30:19.660
 the Lord

00:30:19.660 --> 00:30:20.579
 in that

00:30:20.579 --> 00:30:20.940
 day.

00:30:22.019 --> 00:30:22.259
 The

00:30:22.259 --> 00:30:22.519
 revelation

00:30:22.519 --> 00:30:22.680
 revelation

00:30:22.680 --> 00:30:23.039
 of God

00:30:23.039 --> 00:30:23.339
 is a

00:30:23.339 --> 00:30:23.660
 mark

00:30:23.660 --> 00:30:24.299
 of a

00:30:24.299 --> 00:30:24.680
 true

00:30:24.680 --> 00:30:25.119
 religion

00:30:25.119 --> 00:30:25.539
 a true

00:30:25.539 --> 00:30:26.059
 people

00:30:26.059 --> 00:30:27.000
 who are

00:30:27.000 --> 00:30:27.339
 walking

00:30:27.339 --> 00:30:28.019
 after and

00:30:28.019 --> 00:30:28.319
 following

00:30:28.319 --> 00:30:29.000
 after God.

00:30:30.259 --> 00:30:30.700
 At the

00:30:30.700 --> 00:30:31.720
 second part

00:30:31.720 --> 00:30:32.839
 of verse

00:30:32.839 --> 00:30:33.299
 21 we

00:30:33.299 --> 00:30:33.980
 find true

00:30:33.980 --> 00:30:34.660
 service.

00:30:35.900 --> 00:30:36.619
 Notice as I

00:30:36.619 --> 00:30:37.539
 continue in

00:30:37.539 --> 00:30:38.119
 verse 21

00:30:38.119 --> 00:30:38.239
 21.

00:30:39.799 --> 00:30:40.299
 In that

00:30:40.299 --> 00:30:41.539
 day there

00:30:41.539 --> 00:30:41.759
 will be

00:30:41.759 --> 00:30:42.419
 worship with

00:30:42.419 --> 00:30:43.299
 sacrifice and

00:30:43.299 --> 00:30:43.959
 offerings and

00:30:43.959 --> 00:30:44.579
 they will

00:30:44.579 --> 00:30:45.659
 make vows to

00:30:45.659 --> 00:30:46.979
 the Lord and

00:30:46.979 --> 00:30:47.799
 perform them.

00:30:48.879 --> 00:30:49.359
 They will

00:30:49.359 --> 00:30:50.019
 commit themselves

00:30:50.019 --> 00:30:51.139
 to him and

00:30:51.139 --> 00:30:51.519
 then they will

00:30:51.519 --> 00:30:52.279
 carry out the

00:30:52.279 --> 00:30:52.779
 things that they

00:30:52.779 --> 00:30:53.179
 have promised

00:30:53.179 --> 00:30:53.519
 to do.

00:30:53.779 --> 00:30:54.199
 There will be

00:30:54.199 --> 00:30:55.039
 service on

00:30:55.039 --> 00:30:55.579
 their part.

00:30:56.139 --> 00:30:56.659
 Devotion,

00:30:57.299 --> 00:30:57.899
 allegiance,

00:30:59.179 --> 00:30:59.619
 ministry.

00:31:01.239 --> 00:31:01.559
 And then

00:31:01.559 --> 00:31:02.039
 finally there

00:31:02.039 --> 00:31:02.599
 will be

00:31:02.599 --> 00:31:03.699
 providential

00:31:03.699 --> 00:31:04.819
 discipline that

00:31:04.819 --> 00:31:05.359
 we find in

00:31:05.359 --> 00:31:06.000
 verse 22.

00:31:06.000 --> 00:31:08.900
 the Lord

00:31:08.900 --> 00:31:09.420
 will strike

00:31:09.420 --> 00:31:09.819
 Egypt,

00:31:10.619 --> 00:31:11.420
 striking and

00:31:11.420 --> 00:31:12.039
 healing and

00:31:12.039 --> 00:31:12.740
 they will

00:31:12.740 --> 00:31:13.539
 return to

00:31:13.539 --> 00:31:14.380
 the Lord and

00:31:14.380 --> 00:31:14.940
 he will

00:31:14.940 --> 00:31:15.599
 listen to

00:31:15.599 --> 00:31:16.359
 their pleas

00:31:16.359 --> 00:31:17.339
 for mercy

00:31:17.339 --> 00:31:18.440
 and heal

00:31:18.440 --> 00:31:18.680
 them.

00:31:19.759 --> 00:31:20.240
 What is

00:31:20.240 --> 00:31:20.740
 true of

00:31:20.740 --> 00:31:22.579
 any child

00:31:22.579 --> 00:31:23.160
 of God as

00:31:23.160 --> 00:31:23.720
 we find in

00:31:23.720 --> 00:31:24.839
 Hebrews chapter

00:31:24.839 --> 00:31:25.319
 12?

00:31:26.059 --> 00:31:27.319
 God disciplines

00:31:27.319 --> 00:31:28.079
 those that he

00:31:28.079 --> 00:31:29.299
 loves and

00:31:29.299 --> 00:31:30.059
 here we find

00:31:30.059 --> 00:31:30.859
 his disciplining

00:31:30.859 --> 00:31:31.740
 hand on the

00:31:31.740 --> 00:31:32.180
 people of

00:31:32.180 --> 00:31:32.579
 Egypt,

00:31:33.980 --> 00:31:34.500
 disciplining

00:31:34.500 --> 00:31:35.539
 them for

00:31:35.539 --> 00:31:36.039
 their joy,

00:31:36.940 --> 00:31:38.240
 correcting them

00:31:38.240 --> 00:31:38.740
 so that they

00:31:38.740 --> 00:31:39.740
 turn again to

00:31:39.740 --> 00:31:40.899
 him as he

00:31:40.899 --> 00:31:42.240
 exposes the

00:31:42.240 --> 00:31:43.200
 deficiencies of

00:31:43.200 --> 00:31:43.899
 their lives and

00:31:43.899 --> 00:31:45.519
 helps to lead

00:31:45.519 --> 00:31:46.220
 them to the

00:31:46.220 --> 00:31:47.259
 superiority of

00:31:47.259 --> 00:31:47.579
 God.

00:31:49.279 --> 00:31:50.059
 These are the

00:31:50.059 --> 00:31:51.019
 marks of true

00:31:51.019 --> 00:31:53.079
 religion in

00:31:53.079 --> 00:31:53.680
 this place.

00:31:55.440 --> 00:31:56.319
 This is a

00:31:56.319 --> 00:31:56.920
 mark of a

00:31:56.920 --> 00:31:57.519
 people who

00:31:57.519 --> 00:31:58.039
 have given

00:31:58.039 --> 00:31:59.440
 themselves to

00:31:59.440 --> 00:31:59.759
 God.

00:32:01.000 --> 00:32:02.279
 We find the

00:32:02.279 --> 00:32:02.980
 next promise

00:32:02.980 --> 00:32:04.220
 verse 23.

00:32:05.660 --> 00:32:06.220
 It says,

00:32:06.779 --> 00:32:07.500
 in that

00:32:07.500 --> 00:32:08.079
 day there

00:32:08.079 --> 00:32:08.660
 will be a

00:32:08.660 --> 00:32:09.319
 highway from

00:32:09.319 --> 00:32:10.519
 Egypt to

00:32:10.519 --> 00:32:11.339
 Assyria and

00:32:11.339 --> 00:32:12.799
 Assyria will

00:32:12.799 --> 00:32:13.799
 come into

00:32:13.799 --> 00:32:14.400
 Egypt and

00:32:14.400 --> 00:32:15.360
 Egypt into

00:32:15.360 --> 00:32:16.980
 Assyria and

00:32:16.980 --> 00:32:17.460
 the Egyptians

00:32:17.460 --> 00:32:18.200
 will worship

00:32:18.200 --> 00:32:19.579
 with the

00:32:19.579 --> 00:32:20.079
 Assyrians.

00:32:20.640 --> 00:32:21.519
 They will

00:32:21.519 --> 00:32:22.680
 worship with

00:32:22.680 --> 00:32:23.779
 Assyria.

00:32:27.180 --> 00:32:28.000
 Here are

00:32:28.000 --> 00:32:28.539
 these two

00:32:28.539 --> 00:32:30.099
 superpowers

00:32:30.099 --> 00:32:30.899
 of the day.

00:32:31.839 --> 00:32:32.959
 These arch

00:32:32.959 --> 00:32:34.379
 enemies of

00:32:34.379 --> 00:32:34.759
 the day.

00:32:35.980 --> 00:32:36.679
 But in

00:32:36.679 --> 00:32:37.539
 that future

00:32:37.539 --> 00:32:38.119
 day there

00:32:38.119 --> 00:32:38.519
 will be

00:32:38.519 --> 00:32:39.159
 peace.

00:32:40.579 --> 00:32:41.259
 There will

00:32:41.259 --> 00:32:42.480
 be fellowship.

00:32:42.759 --> 00:32:42.980
 There will

00:32:42.980 --> 00:32:44.319
 be community.

00:32:45.179 --> 00:32:45.500
 There will

00:32:45.500 --> 00:32:46.059
 be devotion

00:32:46.059 --> 00:32:47.139
 together of

00:32:47.139 --> 00:32:47.500
 God.

00:32:48.500 --> 00:32:49.379
 Marked by

00:32:49.379 --> 00:32:50.099
 the highway

00:32:50.099 --> 00:32:51.579
 that connects

00:32:51.579 --> 00:32:52.079
 the two

00:32:52.079 --> 00:32:52.619
 nations

00:32:52.619 --> 00:32:53.079
 together.

00:32:54.179 --> 00:32:54.959
 This means

00:32:54.959 --> 00:32:55.779
 of traffic

00:32:55.779 --> 00:32:57.000
 and access

00:32:57.000 --> 00:32:57.859
 to one

00:32:57.859 --> 00:32:58.740
 another's

00:32:58.740 --> 00:32:59.339
 empires.

00:33:00.859 --> 00:33:01.579
 I can

00:33:01.579 --> 00:33:01.879
 remember

00:33:01.879 --> 00:33:02.660
 traveling as

00:33:02.660 --> 00:33:03.819
 a kid to

00:33:03.819 --> 00:33:04.500
 upstate New

00:33:04.500 --> 00:33:04.779
 York.

00:33:05.819 --> 00:33:06.339
 And most

00:33:06.339 --> 00:33:06.619
 of the

00:33:06.619 --> 00:33:07.160
 journey as

00:33:07.160 --> 00:33:07.720
 I recall

00:33:07.720 --> 00:33:08.980
 was a

00:33:08.980 --> 00:33:09.779
 journey by

00:33:09.779 --> 00:33:10.759
 side streets,

00:33:11.139 --> 00:33:11.559
 by these

00:33:11.559 --> 00:33:11.980
 two lane

00:33:11.980 --> 00:33:12.680
 highways that

00:33:12.680 --> 00:33:13.240
 cut through

00:33:13.240 --> 00:33:13.740
 all of the

00:33:13.740 --> 00:33:15.000
 little towns

00:33:15.000 --> 00:33:15.879
 and communities

00:33:15.879 --> 00:33:16.399
 along the

00:33:16.399 --> 00:33:16.660
 way.

00:33:17.619 --> 00:33:17.980
 And it

00:33:17.980 --> 00:33:18.879
 took forever

00:33:18.879 --> 00:33:19.980
 it seemed

00:33:19.980 --> 00:33:20.920
 to get to

00:33:20.920 --> 00:33:21.339
 my grandma's

00:33:21.339 --> 00:33:21.700
 house.

00:33:22.339 --> 00:33:22.759
 And as much

00:33:22.759 --> 00:33:23.220
 as I liked

00:33:23.220 --> 00:33:23.619
 the final

00:33:23.619 --> 00:33:24.200
 destination,

00:33:24.399 --> 00:33:24.920
 the journey

00:33:24.920 --> 00:33:25.320
 of getting

00:33:25.320 --> 00:33:25.700
 there was

00:33:25.700 --> 00:33:26.279
 not pleasant.

00:33:28.480 --> 00:33:29.380
 Until now.

00:33:30.120 --> 00:33:30.560
 Now a

00:33:30.560 --> 00:33:30.960
 journey to

00:33:30.960 --> 00:33:31.440
 upstate New

00:33:31.440 --> 00:33:32.080
 York is a

00:33:32.080 --> 00:33:32.480
 cinch.

00:33:33.000 --> 00:33:33.620
 Because of

00:33:33.620 --> 00:33:34.279
 the freeway

00:33:34.279 --> 00:33:34.779
 that helps

00:33:34.779 --> 00:33:35.220
 connect

00:33:35.220 --> 00:33:35.860
 Columbus

00:33:35.860 --> 00:33:36.820
 especially to

00:33:36.820 --> 00:33:38.880
 my grandma's

00:33:38.880 --> 00:33:39.660
 house.

00:33:40.580 --> 00:33:40.880
 So what

00:33:40.880 --> 00:33:41.700
 took seven

00:33:41.700 --> 00:33:42.380
 hours before

00:33:42.380 --> 00:33:42.860
 now takes

00:33:42.860 --> 00:33:43.380
 about five

00:33:43.380 --> 00:33:43.740
 and a half

00:33:43.740 --> 00:33:44.140
 hours.

00:33:44.720 --> 00:33:45.279
 A highway

00:33:45.279 --> 00:33:46.100
 that marks

00:33:46.100 --> 00:33:47.259
 accessibility.

00:33:48.460 --> 00:33:49.000
 It marks

00:33:49.000 --> 00:33:50.200
 the flow

00:33:50.200 --> 00:33:51.000
 of traffic.

00:33:52.180 --> 00:33:53.259
 It marks

00:33:53.259 --> 00:33:54.320
 a people

00:33:54.319 --> 00:33:54.960
 that are

00:33:54.960 --> 00:33:55.659
 connected

00:33:55.659 --> 00:33:56.200
 together

00:33:56.200 --> 00:33:57.419
 as we

00:33:57.419 --> 00:33:58.019
 see here

00:33:58.019 --> 00:33:59.179
 in our

00:33:59.179 --> 00:33:59.779
 passage this

00:33:59.779 --> 00:34:00.059
 morning.

00:34:01.200 --> 00:34:01.779
 Here the

00:34:01.779 --> 00:34:02.720
 prophet pictures

00:34:02.720 --> 00:34:03.399
 a freeway

00:34:03.399 --> 00:34:04.799
 that connects

00:34:04.799 --> 00:34:05.319
 these two

00:34:05.319 --> 00:34:06.200
 world empires.

00:34:07.200 --> 00:34:07.500
 It's a

00:34:07.500 --> 00:34:08.079
 symbol of

00:34:08.079 --> 00:34:08.639
 mutual

00:34:08.639 --> 00:34:09.500
 relationship.

00:34:10.500 --> 00:34:11.279
 A symbol

00:34:11.279 --> 00:34:12.199
 of shared

00:34:12.199 --> 00:34:12.940
 values.

00:34:14.000 --> 00:34:14.860
 A symbol

00:34:14.860 --> 00:34:15.519
 of trust

00:34:15.519 --> 00:34:16.259
 and alignment

00:34:16.259 --> 00:34:17.400
 as a

00:34:17.400 --> 00:34:17.719
 people

00:34:17.719 --> 00:34:19.259
 aligned

00:34:19.259 --> 00:34:19.860
 under the

00:34:19.860 --> 00:34:20.319
 banner of

00:34:20.319 --> 00:34:20.699
 worship.

00:34:20.699 --> 00:34:20.799
 worship.

00:34:21.799 --> 00:34:22.299
 The

00:34:22.299 --> 00:34:22.759
 unifying

00:34:22.759 --> 00:34:23.500
 factor for

00:34:23.500 --> 00:34:23.699
 these

00:34:23.699 --> 00:34:24.339
 people is

00:34:24.339 --> 00:34:24.559
 their

00:34:24.559 --> 00:34:25.319
 common

00:34:25.319 --> 00:34:25.839
 commitment

00:34:25.839 --> 00:34:26.759
 to the

00:34:26.759 --> 00:34:27.139
 one

00:34:27.139 --> 00:34:27.739
 true

00:34:27.739 --> 00:34:28.419
 God.

00:34:29.419 --> 00:34:30.039
 And if

00:34:30.039 --> 00:34:30.159
 the

00:34:30.159 --> 00:34:30.619
 revelation

00:34:30.619 --> 00:34:31.239
 concerning

00:34:31.239 --> 00:34:31.579
 Egypt

00:34:31.579 --> 00:34:32.039
 wasn't

00:34:32.039 --> 00:34:32.460
 shocking

00:34:32.460 --> 00:34:32.960
 enough,

00:34:33.639 --> 00:34:34.359
 now you

00:34:34.359 --> 00:34:35.079
 add Assyria

00:34:35.079 --> 00:34:35.559
 on top

00:34:35.559 --> 00:34:35.939
 of that.

00:34:37.579 --> 00:34:37.980
 Assyria

00:34:37.980 --> 00:34:38.739
 will join

00:34:38.739 --> 00:34:39.399
 Egypt in

00:34:39.399 --> 00:34:39.719
 worship

00:34:39.719 --> 00:34:40.819
 of God.

00:34:42.159 --> 00:34:42.500
 I like

00:34:42.500 --> 00:34:42.819
 what one

00:34:42.819 --> 00:34:43.339
 commentator

00:34:43.339 --> 00:34:43.799
 says.

00:34:44.480 --> 00:34:44.839
 He says,

00:34:44.840 --> 00:34:46.120
 true religion

00:34:46.120 --> 00:34:46.960
 heals wounds

00:34:46.960 --> 00:34:47.740
 between people.

00:34:48.740 --> 00:34:49.380
 First a few

00:34:49.380 --> 00:34:49.780
 cities,

00:34:50.000 --> 00:34:50.820
 then a whole

00:34:50.820 --> 00:34:51.260
 country,

00:34:51.620 --> 00:34:52.900
 now the

00:34:52.900 --> 00:34:54.140
 whole world.

00:34:55.780 --> 00:34:56.740
 The emphasis

00:34:56.740 --> 00:34:57.820
 here rests

00:34:57.820 --> 00:34:58.800
 on the

00:34:58.800 --> 00:34:59.840
 oneness of

00:34:59.840 --> 00:35:01.120
 people with

00:35:01.120 --> 00:35:01.620
 each other

00:35:01.620 --> 00:35:02.539
 and the

00:35:02.539 --> 00:35:03.500
 free expression

00:35:03.500 --> 00:35:04.420
 that they

00:35:04.420 --> 00:35:05.120
 give to it.

00:35:06.059 --> 00:35:07.120
 Not just

00:35:07.120 --> 00:35:07.640
 a highway

00:35:07.640 --> 00:35:08.340
 between them.

00:35:09.240 --> 00:35:09.740
 Not just a

00:35:09.740 --> 00:35:10.340
 highway between

00:35:10.340 --> 00:35:11.059
 Assyria and

00:35:11.059 --> 00:35:11.620
 Egypt, but we

00:35:11.620 --> 00:35:12.700
 find in

00:35:12.700 --> 00:35:13.960
 Isaiah

00:35:13.960 --> 00:35:15.079
 chapter 11,

00:35:15.199 --> 00:35:15.519
 we find

00:35:15.519 --> 00:35:16.099
 there's a

00:35:16.099 --> 00:35:17.199
 highway from

00:35:17.199 --> 00:35:17.900
 Assyria to

00:35:17.900 --> 00:35:18.740
 Jerusalem as

00:35:18.740 --> 00:35:19.099
 well.

00:35:20.960 --> 00:35:21.539
 Desire,

00:35:21.760 --> 00:35:22.460
 devotion to

00:35:22.460 --> 00:35:22.800
 God,

00:35:24.099 --> 00:35:24.760
 united under

00:35:24.760 --> 00:35:25.360
 the banner of

00:35:25.360 --> 00:35:25.900
 worship to

00:35:25.900 --> 00:35:26.059
 Him.

00:35:27.559 --> 00:35:28.019
 And then

00:35:28.019 --> 00:35:30.139
 this next

00:35:30.139 --> 00:35:30.699
 promise we

00:35:30.699 --> 00:35:31.179
 find in

00:35:31.179 --> 00:35:32.019
 verse 24

00:35:32.019 --> 00:35:32.639
 and 25.

00:35:33.860 --> 00:35:34.860
 In that

00:35:34.860 --> 00:35:35.659
 day Israel

00:35:35.659 --> 00:35:36.220
 will be a

00:35:36.220 --> 00:35:37.260
 third with

00:35:37.260 --> 00:35:38.320
 Egypt and

00:35:38.320 --> 00:35:38.860
 Assyria,

00:35:39.579 --> 00:35:40.320
 a blessing

00:35:40.320 --> 00:35:40.860
 in the

00:35:40.860 --> 00:35:41.860
 midst of

00:35:41.860 --> 00:35:42.300
 the earth,

00:35:42.960 --> 00:35:43.720
 with the

00:35:43.719 --> 00:35:44.159
 Lord of

00:35:44.159 --> 00:35:44.619
 hosts,

00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:46.319
 with whom

00:35:46.319 --> 00:35:46.659
 the Lord

00:35:46.659 --> 00:35:47.159
 of hosts

00:35:47.159 --> 00:35:47.980
 has blessed

00:35:47.980 --> 00:35:48.279
 saying,

00:35:48.459 --> 00:35:49.079
 blessed be

00:35:49.079 --> 00:35:49.399
 Egypt,

00:35:49.519 --> 00:35:49.959
 my people,

00:35:50.759 --> 00:35:51.399
 and Assyria

00:35:51.399 --> 00:35:51.819
 the work

00:35:51.819 --> 00:35:52.139
 of my

00:35:52.139 --> 00:35:52.459
 hands,

00:35:52.799 --> 00:35:53.419
 and Israel

00:35:53.419 --> 00:35:54.059
 my

00:35:54.059 --> 00:35:55.480
 inheritance.

00:35:57.359 --> 00:35:58.299
 Now this

00:35:58.299 --> 00:35:58.679
 is an

00:35:58.679 --> 00:35:59.159
 astonishing

00:35:59.159 --> 00:35:59.839
 statement.

00:36:02.239 --> 00:36:02.839
 Almost

00:36:02.839 --> 00:36:03.539
 breathtaking

00:36:03.539 --> 00:36:04.500
 to imagine.

00:36:06.379 --> 00:36:07.119
 Caught in

00:36:07.119 --> 00:36:07.439
 the middle

00:36:07.439 --> 00:36:07.959
 of two

00:36:07.959 --> 00:36:09.299
 superpowers

00:36:09.300 --> 00:36:10.539
 who are

00:36:10.539 --> 00:36:11.200
 defiant

00:36:11.200 --> 00:36:12.240
 and ruthless

00:36:12.240 --> 00:36:12.240


00:36:12.240 --> 00:36:12.940
 And

00:36:12.940 --> 00:36:13.320
 brutal!

00:36:13.980 --> 00:36:14.600
 Merciless

00:36:14.600 --> 00:36:15.039
 in every

00:36:15.039 --> 00:36:15.320
 way!

00:36:16.940 --> 00:36:17.340
 And yet,

00:36:17.600 --> 00:36:18.420
 some

00:36:18.420 --> 00:36:18.900
 future

00:36:18.900 --> 00:36:19.280
 day,

00:36:20.240 --> 00:36:20.920
 they will

00:36:20.920 --> 00:36:21.480
 not only

00:36:21.480 --> 00:36:22.260
 have aligned

00:36:22.260 --> 00:36:22.860
 themselves

00:36:22.860 --> 00:36:23.600
 to God,

00:36:24.220 --> 00:36:24.539
 but they

00:36:24.539 --> 00:36:24.800
 will be

00:36:24.800 --> 00:36:25.260
 considered

00:36:25.260 --> 00:36:25.880
 by God

00:36:25.880 --> 00:36:27.400
 as partakers

00:36:27.400 --> 00:36:28.420
 of blessing,

00:36:29.420 --> 00:36:30.000
 as a

00:36:30.000 --> 00:36:30.640
 people of

00:36:30.640 --> 00:36:31.260
 God just

00:36:31.260 --> 00:36:32.000
 like Israel,

00:36:32.120 --> 00:36:32.539
 one of the

00:36:32.539 --> 00:36:32.960
 third,

00:36:33.560 --> 00:36:34.060
 Israel,

00:36:34.059 --> 00:36:34.820
 Egypt,

00:36:35.460 --> 00:36:36.659
 and Assyria,

00:36:37.860 --> 00:36:38.299
 considered

00:36:38.299 --> 00:36:39.159
 so much

00:36:39.159 --> 00:36:39.719
 part

00:36:39.719 --> 00:36:41.739
 of the

00:36:41.739 --> 00:36:42.159
 people of

00:36:42.159 --> 00:36:42.500
 God,

00:36:42.679 --> 00:36:43.019
 they're

00:36:43.019 --> 00:36:43.960
 stated in

00:36:43.960 --> 00:36:44.519
 this way,

00:36:45.480 --> 00:36:48.559
 although

00:36:48.559 --> 00:36:49.460
 defined and

00:36:49.460 --> 00:36:49.799
 ruthless,

00:36:50.799 --> 00:36:51.019
 they're

00:36:51.019 --> 00:36:51.559
 chosen.

00:36:52.659 --> 00:36:53.360
 Chosen

00:36:53.360 --> 00:36:54.559
 just like

00:36:54.559 --> 00:36:55.079
 Israel

00:36:55.079 --> 00:36:56.099
 as an

00:36:56.099 --> 00:36:56.559
 inheritance.

00:36:57.920 --> 00:36:58.380
 Chosen

00:36:58.380 --> 00:36:59.299
 to be

00:36:59.299 --> 00:37:00.219
 a blessing,

00:37:01.179 --> 00:37:01.840
 a blessing

00:37:01.840 --> 00:37:02.299
 to the

00:37:02.299 --> 00:37:02.639
 world.

00:37:04.059 --> 00:37:04.779
 This

00:37:04.779 --> 00:37:05.199
 same

00:37:05.199 --> 00:37:05.619
 awareness

00:37:05.619 --> 00:37:06.239
 of mercy

00:37:06.239 --> 00:37:06.659
 affected

00:37:06.659 --> 00:37:08.019
 a prophet

00:37:08.019 --> 00:37:08.400
 just

00:37:08.400 --> 00:37:09.139
 about

00:37:09.139 --> 00:37:09.699
 80 years

00:37:09.699 --> 00:37:10.059
 before.

00:37:10.960 --> 00:37:11.659
 A prophet

00:37:11.659 --> 00:37:11.900
 who was

00:37:11.900 --> 00:37:12.299
 called to

00:37:12.299 --> 00:37:12.539
 go to

00:37:12.539 --> 00:37:12.940
 the same

00:37:12.940 --> 00:37:13.279
 group of

00:37:13.279 --> 00:37:13.579
 people,

00:37:14.539 --> 00:37:14.880
 the group

00:37:14.880 --> 00:37:15.619
 of Assyria,

00:37:15.739 --> 00:37:16.259
 the city

00:37:16.259 --> 00:37:17.059
 of Nineveh.

00:37:18.219 --> 00:37:19.039
 He knew

00:37:19.039 --> 00:37:19.599
 the same

00:37:19.599 --> 00:37:20.019
 heart of

00:37:20.019 --> 00:37:20.199
 God.

00:37:20.259 --> 00:37:20.659
 He knew

00:37:20.659 --> 00:37:21.340
 a heart

00:37:21.340 --> 00:37:21.920
 of mercy.

00:37:22.259 --> 00:37:22.539
 He knew

00:37:22.539 --> 00:37:23.239
 what God

00:37:23.239 --> 00:37:23.500
 was going

00:37:23.500 --> 00:37:23.799
 to do

00:37:23.799 --> 00:37:24.380
 in Nineveh.

00:37:25.639 --> 00:37:26.039
 And in

00:37:26.039 --> 00:37:26.599
 his heart,

00:37:26.679 --> 00:37:27.139
 he chose

00:37:27.139 --> 00:37:27.639
 to run.

00:37:28.579 --> 00:37:28.860
 In his

00:37:28.860 --> 00:37:29.539
 heart,

00:37:29.679 --> 00:37:30.559
 he chose

00:37:30.559 --> 00:37:30.840
 he would

00:37:30.840 --> 00:37:31.659
 rather die

00:37:31.659 --> 00:37:32.840
 than for

00:37:32.840 --> 00:37:33.679
 this people

00:37:33.679 --> 00:37:34.099
 to hear

00:37:34.099 --> 00:37:34.839
 the message

00:37:34.839 --> 00:37:35.699
 of mercy.

00:37:37.079 --> 00:37:37.779
 And when

00:37:37.779 --> 00:37:38.179
 they did

00:37:38.179 --> 00:37:38.779
 hear the

00:37:38.779 --> 00:37:39.279
 message of

00:37:39.279 --> 00:37:39.599
 mercy,

00:37:40.019 --> 00:37:41.139
 and responded

00:37:41.139 --> 00:37:41.899
 in commitment

00:37:41.899 --> 00:37:42.480
 to God,

00:37:42.739 --> 00:37:43.019
 what did

00:37:43.019 --> 00:37:43.319
 he do?

00:37:43.419 --> 00:37:44.019
 He sulked.

00:37:44.960 --> 00:37:45.239
 He was

00:37:45.239 --> 00:37:45.619
 angry.

00:37:46.579 --> 00:37:46.859
 He wanted

00:37:46.859 --> 00:37:47.219
 God to

00:37:47.219 --> 00:37:47.619
 kill him.

00:37:49.759 --> 00:37:50.379
 Not what

00:37:50.379 --> 00:37:50.779
 we find

00:37:50.779 --> 00:37:51.019
 here.

00:37:52.079 --> 00:37:52.679
 As the

00:37:52.679 --> 00:37:52.980
 prophet

00:37:52.980 --> 00:37:53.480
 writes

00:37:53.480 --> 00:37:54.199
 this

00:37:54.199 --> 00:37:55.679
 passage

00:37:55.679 --> 00:37:57.279
 and anticipates

00:37:57.279 --> 00:37:57.779
 a future

00:37:57.779 --> 00:37:58.199
 day,

00:37:58.319 --> 00:37:59.879
 we come

00:37:59.879 --> 00:38:00.739
 to appreciate

00:38:00.739 --> 00:38:01.679
 the heart

00:38:01.679 --> 00:38:02.099
 of God

00:38:02.099 --> 00:38:02.439
 for the

00:38:02.439 --> 00:38:02.899
 nations.

00:38:03.739 --> 00:38:04.259
 The heart

00:38:04.259 --> 00:38:04.719
 of God

00:38:04.719 --> 00:38:05.119
 for the

00:38:05.119 --> 00:38:05.519
 peoples

00:38:05.519 --> 00:38:06.019
 of the

00:38:06.019 --> 00:38:06.419
 earth.

00:38:07.139 --> 00:38:08.019
 Not just

00:38:08.019 --> 00:38:08.619
 for Israel,

00:38:08.779 --> 00:38:09.379
 but for

00:38:09.379 --> 00:38:09.899
 all the

00:38:09.899 --> 00:38:10.259
 world.

00:38:12.659 --> 00:38:13.399
 And that's

00:38:13.399 --> 00:38:13.719
 what leads

00:38:13.719 --> 00:38:14.059
 us to

00:38:14.059 --> 00:38:15.079
 our next

00:38:15.079 --> 00:38:15.419
 point.

00:38:16.539 --> 00:38:17.039
 The hope

00:38:17.039 --> 00:38:18.279
 of every

00:38:18.279 --> 00:38:18.919
 nation.

00:38:19.819 --> 00:38:20.459
 The hope

00:38:20.459 --> 00:38:21.739
 of every

00:38:21.739 --> 00:38:22.319
 nation.

00:38:24.199 --> 00:38:25.039
 As we look

00:38:25.039 --> 00:38:25.379
 back,

00:38:25.439 --> 00:38:26.079
 just a chapter,

00:38:26.819 --> 00:38:27.319
 we find

00:38:27.319 --> 00:38:27.959
 an example

00:38:27.960 --> 00:38:28.699
 to the

00:38:28.699 --> 00:38:29.340
 people of

00:38:29.340 --> 00:38:29.740
 Cush.

00:38:31.480 --> 00:38:31.800
 This

00:38:31.800 --> 00:38:33.079
 people who

00:38:33.079 --> 00:38:35.000
 lived just

00:38:35.000 --> 00:38:35.699
 south of

00:38:35.699 --> 00:38:36.099
 Egypt,

00:38:36.920 --> 00:38:37.559
 often referred

00:38:37.559 --> 00:38:38.280
 to as the

00:38:38.280 --> 00:38:38.699
 land of

00:38:38.699 --> 00:38:39.199
 Ethiopia.

00:38:40.320 --> 00:38:40.760
 This is a

00:38:40.760 --> 00:38:41.340
 group of

00:38:41.340 --> 00:38:42.400
 individuals who

00:38:42.400 --> 00:38:43.480
 was foreign

00:38:43.480 --> 00:38:44.220
 and who

00:38:44.220 --> 00:38:46.619
 had little

00:38:46.619 --> 00:38:47.460
 familiarity

00:38:47.460 --> 00:38:48.179
 with these

00:38:48.179 --> 00:38:48.539
 people.

00:38:48.960 --> 00:38:49.360
 But what

00:38:49.360 --> 00:38:49.860
 they did

00:38:49.860 --> 00:38:50.139
 know

00:38:50.139 --> 00:38:50.659
 intimidated

00:38:50.659 --> 00:38:51.019
 them.

00:38:51.760 --> 00:38:52.280
 What they

00:38:52.280 --> 00:38:53.000
 did know

00:38:53.000 --> 00:38:53.559
 made them

00:38:53.559 --> 00:38:54.000
 afraid.

00:38:55.539 --> 00:38:56.079
 Notice with

00:38:56.079 --> 00:38:56.380
 me in

00:38:56.380 --> 00:38:56.679
 verse

00:38:56.679 --> 00:38:58.039
 chapter 18

00:38:58.039 --> 00:38:58.579
 verses 1

00:38:58.579 --> 00:38:58.940
 and 2.

00:39:00.039 --> 00:39:00.399
 Ah,

00:39:01.000 --> 00:39:01.899
 land of

00:39:01.899 --> 00:39:02.279
 whirring

00:39:02.279 --> 00:39:03.259
 wings that

00:39:03.259 --> 00:39:03.839
 is beyond

00:39:03.839 --> 00:39:04.399
 the rivers

00:39:04.399 --> 00:39:04.919
 of Cush,

00:39:05.500 --> 00:39:06.559
 which sends

00:39:06.559 --> 00:39:07.559
 ambassadors by

00:39:07.559 --> 00:39:08.079
 the sea,

00:39:08.799 --> 00:39:09.279
 and vessels

00:39:09.279 --> 00:39:10.319
 of papyrus

00:39:10.319 --> 00:39:10.779
 on the

00:39:10.779 --> 00:39:11.199
 waters.

00:39:12.039 --> 00:39:12.659
 Go, you

00:39:12.659 --> 00:39:13.500
 swift messengers

00:39:13.500 --> 00:39:14.099
 to a

00:39:14.099 --> 00:39:14.899
 nation tall

00:39:14.899 --> 00:39:15.519
 and smooth,

00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:16.539
 to a

00:39:16.539 --> 00:39:17.559
 people feared

00:39:17.559 --> 00:39:18.259
 near and

00:39:18.259 --> 00:39:19.519
 far, a

00:39:19.519 --> 00:39:20.440
 nation mighty

00:39:20.440 --> 00:39:21.599
 and conquering,

00:39:22.079 --> 00:39:22.779
 whose land

00:39:22.779 --> 00:39:23.339
 the rivers

00:39:23.339 --> 00:39:23.899
 divide.

00:39:24.980 --> 00:39:25.419
 This

00:39:25.419 --> 00:39:26.159
 prophecy,

00:39:26.159 --> 00:39:26.899
 to a

00:39:26.899 --> 00:39:27.759
 group of

00:39:27.759 --> 00:39:28.359
 individuals

00:39:28.359 --> 00:39:30.739
 that Isaiah

00:39:30.739 --> 00:39:31.399
 is referring

00:39:31.399 --> 00:39:31.799
 to.

00:39:32.739 --> 00:39:33.599
 A group

00:39:33.599 --> 00:39:34.440
 of individuals

00:39:34.440 --> 00:39:34.960
 who will

00:39:34.960 --> 00:39:35.539
 also be

00:39:35.539 --> 00:39:36.139
 judged by

00:39:36.139 --> 00:39:36.519
 God,

00:39:37.219 --> 00:39:37.819
 who also

00:39:37.819 --> 00:39:38.839
 experience the

00:39:38.839 --> 00:39:39.920
 heavy hand

00:39:39.920 --> 00:39:40.379
 of God

00:39:40.379 --> 00:39:41.219
 because of

00:39:41.219 --> 00:39:42.899
 their devotion

00:39:42.899 --> 00:39:43.819
 to idolatry

00:39:43.819 --> 00:39:45.099
 and not

00:39:45.099 --> 00:39:45.679
 their devotion

00:39:45.679 --> 00:39:46.699
 to worship.

00:39:48.019 --> 00:39:48.819
 But notice

00:39:48.819 --> 00:39:49.539
 how it turns.

00:39:50.460 --> 00:39:50.899
 Notice in

00:39:50.899 --> 00:39:51.420
 verse 7

00:39:51.420 --> 00:39:52.139
 what the

00:39:52.139 --> 00:39:52.519
 result,

00:39:52.519 --> 00:39:53.239
 the future

00:39:53.239 --> 00:39:54.199
 hope of

00:39:54.199 --> 00:39:54.759
 this people

00:39:54.759 --> 00:39:55.339
 of Cush

00:39:55.339 --> 00:39:57.019
 leads to.

00:39:58.059 --> 00:39:58.539
 At that

00:39:58.539 --> 00:39:59.059
 time, it

00:39:59.059 --> 00:39:59.379
 says in

00:39:59.379 --> 00:39:59.899
 verse 7,

00:40:00.679 --> 00:40:01.299
 tribute will

00:40:01.299 --> 00:40:01.879
 be brought

00:40:01.879 --> 00:40:02.399
 to the

00:40:02.399 --> 00:40:03.279
 Lord of

00:40:03.279 --> 00:40:03.659
 hosts

00:40:03.659 --> 00:40:04.859
 from a

00:40:04.859 --> 00:40:05.659

00:40:05.659 --> 00:40:06.219
 and smooth,

00:40:06.819 --> 00:40:07.299
 from a

00:40:07.299 --> 00:40:08.019
 people feared

00:40:08.019 --> 00:40:08.460
 near and

00:40:08.460 --> 00:40:09.839
 far, a

00:40:09.839 --> 00:40:10.579
 nation mighty

00:40:10.579 --> 00:40:11.279
 and conquering,

00:40:11.619 --> 00:40:12.599
 whose land

00:40:12.599 --> 00:40:13.099
 the rivers

00:40:13.099 --> 00:40:13.659
 divide,

00:40:14.519 --> 00:40:14.960
 to Mount

00:40:14.960 --> 00:40:15.359
 Zion,

00:40:16.179 --> 00:40:16.819
 the place

00:40:16.819 --> 00:40:17.659
 of the

00:40:17.659 --> 00:40:18.639
 name of

00:40:18.639 --> 00:40:19.079
 the Lord

00:40:19.079 --> 00:40:19.759
 of hosts.

00:40:20.559 --> 00:40:20.939
 Hope

00:40:20.940 --> 00:40:21.599
 to the

00:40:21.599 --> 00:40:21.960
 people

00:40:21.960 --> 00:40:22.460
 of

00:40:22.460 --> 00:40:22.780
 Cush.

00:40:24.240 --> 00:40:24.900
 Hope

00:40:24.900 --> 00:40:25.539
 to Egypt,

00:40:26.240 --> 00:40:26.440
 hope

00:40:26.440 --> 00:40:27.260
 to Assyria,

00:40:27.940 --> 00:40:28.179
 hope

00:40:28.179 --> 00:40:29.059
 to Cush,

00:40:29.559 --> 00:40:30.139
 and now

00:40:30.139 --> 00:40:30.599
 hope

00:40:30.599 --> 00:40:31.099
 to the

00:40:31.099 --> 00:40:31.539
 people

00:40:31.539 --> 00:40:31.960
 of the

00:40:31.960 --> 00:40:32.360
 world.

00:40:33.139 --> 00:40:33.659
 We see

00:40:33.659 --> 00:40:34.099
 that as

00:40:34.099 --> 00:40:34.619
 an anthem

00:40:34.619 --> 00:40:35.320
 throughout

00:40:35.320 --> 00:40:36.240
 the book

00:40:36.240 --> 00:40:36.820
 of Isaiah,

00:40:37.559 --> 00:40:38.039
 beginning

00:40:38.039 --> 00:40:38.639
 in chapter

00:40:38.639 --> 00:40:39.019

00:40:39.099 --> 00:40:39.440
 Turn with

00:40:39.440 --> 00:40:39.840
 me for

00:40:39.840 --> 00:40:40.639
 a moment,

00:40:40.760 --> 00:40:41.119
 just to

00:40:41.119 --> 00:40:41.500
 Isaiah

00:40:41.500 --> 00:40:42.179
 chapter 2,

00:40:42.420 --> 00:40:42.659
 so you

00:40:42.659 --> 00:40:43.000
 can see

00:40:43.000 --> 00:40:43.380
 this for

00:40:43.380 --> 00:40:43.840
 yourself.

00:40:45.639 --> 00:40:45.900
 What is

00:40:45.900 --> 00:40:46.260
 God's

00:40:46.260 --> 00:40:47.079
 future plan

00:40:47.079 --> 00:40:47.360
 for the

00:40:47.360 --> 00:40:47.700
 nations?

00:40:48.519 --> 00:40:49.019
 What is

00:40:49.019 --> 00:40:49.539
 his heart

00:40:49.539 --> 00:40:49.820
 for the

00:40:49.820 --> 00:40:50.320
 peoples of

00:40:50.320 --> 00:40:50.740
 the earth?

00:40:50.940 --> 00:40:53.119
 Isaiah

00:40:53.119 --> 00:40:54.019
 chapter 2,

00:40:54.460 --> 00:40:55.179
 verses 2

00:40:55.179 --> 00:40:55.639
 and 3,

00:40:55.800 --> 00:40:56.280
 it shall

00:40:56.280 --> 00:40:56.860
 come to

00:40:56.860 --> 00:40:57.840
 pass in

00:40:57.840 --> 00:40:58.179
 the latter

00:40:58.179 --> 00:40:58.720
 days,

00:40:59.400 --> 00:41:00.340
 the mountain

00:41:00.340 --> 00:41:00.720
 of the

00:41:00.720 --> 00:41:01.039
 Lord of

00:41:01.039 --> 00:41:01.360
 hosts,

00:41:01.400 --> 00:41:01.639

00:41:01.639 --> 00:41:02.059
 house of

00:41:02.059 --> 00:41:02.420
 the Lord,

00:41:02.700 --> 00:41:03.300
 shall be

00:41:03.300 --> 00:41:03.880
 established

00:41:03.880 --> 00:41:04.519
 as the

00:41:04.519 --> 00:41:05.019
 highest

00:41:05.019 --> 00:41:05.579

00:41:05.579 --> 00:41:06.119
 mountains,

00:41:06.679 --> 00:41:07.240
 and shall

00:41:07.240 --> 00:41:07.780
 be lifted

00:41:07.780 --> 00:41:08.260
 up above

00:41:08.260 --> 00:41:08.880
 the hills,

00:41:09.139 --> 00:41:10.059
 and all

00:41:10.059 --> 00:41:11.119
 the nations

00:41:11.119 --> 00:41:12.119
 shall flow

00:41:12.119 --> 00:41:12.860
 to it.

00:41:15.159 --> 00:41:15.900
 And many

00:41:15.900 --> 00:41:16.420
 peoples

00:41:16.420 --> 00:41:17.500
 shall come

00:41:17.500 --> 00:41:18.480
 and say,

00:41:18.639 --> 00:41:19.059
 come,

00:41:19.760 --> 00:41:20.260
 let us

00:41:20.260 --> 00:41:20.700
 go up

00:41:20.700 --> 00:41:21.020
 to the

00:41:21.020 --> 00:41:21.380
 mountain

00:41:21.380 --> 00:41:21.700
 of the

00:41:21.700 --> 00:41:22.080
 Lord,

00:41:22.220 --> 00:41:22.680
 to the

00:41:22.680 --> 00:41:23.100
 house

00:41:23.100 --> 00:41:23.620
 of the

00:41:23.620 --> 00:41:23.840
 God

00:41:23.840 --> 00:41:24.000
 of

00:41:24.000 --> 00:41:24.340
 Jacob,

00:41:24.340 --> 00:41:25.620
 that he

00:41:25.620 --> 00:41:26.280
 may teach

00:41:26.280 --> 00:41:26.740
 us his

00:41:26.740 --> 00:41:27.300
 ways,

00:41:27.680 --> 00:41:28.200
 and that

00:41:28.200 --> 00:41:28.720
 we may

00:41:28.720 --> 00:41:29.260
 walk in

00:41:29.260 --> 00:41:29.900
 his paths,

00:41:30.860 --> 00:41:31.240
 for out

00:41:31.240 --> 00:41:31.680
 of Zion

00:41:31.680 --> 00:41:32.140
 shall go

00:41:32.140 --> 00:41:32.640
 the law,

00:41:33.360 --> 00:41:33.780
 and the

00:41:33.780 --> 00:41:34.420
 word of

00:41:34.420 --> 00:41:34.920
 the Lord

00:41:34.920 --> 00:41:35.620
 from

00:41:35.620 --> 00:41:36.580
 Jerusalem.

00:41:37.720 --> 00:41:38.220
 Make

00:41:38.220 --> 00:41:38.940
 no

00:41:38.940 --> 00:41:39.800
 mistake,

00:41:40.240 --> 00:41:40.860
 the heart

00:41:40.860 --> 00:41:41.340
 of a

00:41:41.340 --> 00:41:41.820
 God is

00:41:41.820 --> 00:41:42.440
 a heart

00:41:42.440 --> 00:41:43.760
 for the

00:41:43.760 --> 00:41:44.380
 nations.

00:41:44.380 --> 00:41:48.320
 probably

00:41:48.320 --> 00:41:48.640
 all of

00:41:48.640 --> 00:41:48.920
 us here

00:41:48.920 --> 00:41:49.280
 today

00:41:49.280 --> 00:41:51.320
 want

00:41:51.320 --> 00:41:51.860
 to

00:41:51.860 --> 00:41:52.240
 echo

00:41:52.240 --> 00:41:53.220
 God's

00:41:53.220 --> 00:41:53.539
 heart,

00:41:54.059 --> 00:41:54.700
 and probably

00:41:54.700 --> 00:41:55.320
 all of

00:41:55.320 --> 00:41:55.840
 us here

00:41:55.840 --> 00:41:56.200
 today

00:41:56.200 --> 00:41:56.480
 are

00:41:56.480 --> 00:41:57.140
 recipients

00:41:57.140 --> 00:41:58.140
 of

00:41:58.140 --> 00:41:58.660
 mercy

00:41:58.660 --> 00:41:59.460
 to the

00:41:59.460 --> 00:42:00.019
 nations,

00:42:00.420 --> 00:42:01.440
 because we're

00:42:01.440 --> 00:42:02.039
 not part

00:42:02.039 --> 00:42:02.280
 of the

00:42:02.280 --> 00:42:02.680
 nation of

00:42:02.680 --> 00:42:02.920
 Israel.

00:42:04.220 --> 00:42:04.940
 We are

00:42:04.940 --> 00:42:05.500
 here today

00:42:05.500 --> 00:42:06.300
 because of

00:42:06.300 --> 00:42:07.220
 the grace

00:42:07.220 --> 00:42:07.780
 of God

00:42:07.780 --> 00:42:08.599
 to the

00:42:08.599 --> 00:42:09.160
 nations,

00:42:09.159 --> 00:42:09.299
 nations.

00:42:10.500 --> 00:42:10.739
 And so

00:42:10.739 --> 00:42:11.339
 those who

00:42:11.339 --> 00:42:11.739
 swear

00:42:11.739 --> 00:42:12.259
 allegiance

00:42:12.259 --> 00:42:13.239
 to God

00:42:13.239 --> 00:42:14.000
 must

00:42:14.000 --> 00:42:14.639
 echo

00:42:14.639 --> 00:42:15.699
 God's

00:42:15.699 --> 00:42:16.159
 heart

00:42:16.159 --> 00:42:16.879
 for the

00:42:16.879 --> 00:42:17.279
 nations.

00:42:18.319 --> 00:42:19.199
 Do you

00:42:19.199 --> 00:42:19.639
 have

00:42:19.639 --> 00:42:20.319
 a

00:42:20.319 --> 00:42:20.739
 mission's

00:42:20.739 --> 00:42:20.940
 heart?

00:42:22.819 --> 00:42:23.799
 It is

00:42:23.799 --> 00:42:23.940
 the

00:42:23.940 --> 00:42:24.639
 responsibility

00:42:24.639 --> 00:42:25.819
 of every

00:42:25.819 --> 00:42:26.179
 believer,

00:42:26.299 --> 00:42:26.539
 and we'll

00:42:26.539 --> 00:42:27.119
 finish with

00:42:27.119 --> 00:42:27.599
 this point.

00:42:28.179 --> 00:42:28.599
 It is

00:42:28.599 --> 00:42:28.739
 the

00:42:28.739 --> 00:42:29.500
 responsibility

00:42:29.500 --> 00:42:31.279
 of every

00:42:31.279 --> 00:42:32.059
 believer

00:42:32.059 --> 00:42:33.420
 to have

00:42:33.420 --> 00:42:34.099
 a heart

00:42:34.099 --> 00:42:34.759
 for

00:42:34.759 --> 00:42:35.219
 the

00:42:35.219 --> 00:42:35.659
 nations.

00:42:36.659 --> 00:42:37.739
 We find

00:42:37.739 --> 00:42:38.500
 it in

00:42:38.500 --> 00:42:38.800
 the

00:42:38.800 --> 00:42:39.139
 clear

00:42:39.139 --> 00:42:39.780
 command

00:42:39.780 --> 00:42:40.519
 of

00:42:40.519 --> 00:42:41.239
 Christ

00:42:41.239 --> 00:42:41.500
 to

00:42:41.500 --> 00:42:41.619
 his

00:42:41.619 --> 00:42:42.079
 disciples,

00:42:42.360 --> 00:42:42.699
 go

00:42:42.699 --> 00:42:43.159
 and

00:42:43.159 --> 00:42:43.500
 make

00:42:43.500 --> 00:42:44.179
 disciples

00:42:44.179 --> 00:42:45.500
 in

00:42:47.739 --> 00:42:48.119
 Turn

00:42:48.119 --> 00:42:48.420
 with me

00:42:48.420 --> 00:42:48.659
 if you

00:42:48.659 --> 00:42:48.880
 would

00:42:48.880 --> 00:42:49.300
 as we

00:42:49.300 --> 00:42:50.300
 draw

00:42:50.300 --> 00:42:50.539
 this

00:42:51.159 --> 00:42:51.380
 to

00:42:58.579 --> 00:42:59.159
 This

00:42:59.159 --> 00:42:59.579
 is our

00:42:59.579 --> 00:43:00.159
 mission

00:43:00.159 --> 00:43:01.059
 statement.

00:43:01.199 --> 00:43:01.300
 This

 is our

00:43:01.699 --> 00:43:03.119
 responsibility.

00:43:03.539 --> 00:43:03.739
 Here's

00:43:03.739 --> 00:43:04.179
 how it's

00:43:04.179 --> 00:43:04.519
 summed

00:43:04.519 --> 00:43:04.900
 up for

00:43:04.900 --> 00:43:05.099
 us

00:43:05.099 --> 00:43:05.360
 by

00:43:05.360 --> 00:43:05.820
 Christ

00:43:05.820 --> 00:43:06.460
 himself.

00:43:06.460 --> 00:43:08.139
 Matthew

00:43:08.139 --> 00:43:08.740
 28

00:43:08.740 --> 00:43:10.880
 beginning

00:43:10.880 --> 00:43:11.059
 in

00:43:11.059 --> 00:43:11.260
 verse

00:43:11.260 --> 00:43:11.740
 18

00:43:11.740 --> 00:43:13.260
 on

00:43:13.260 --> 00:43:13.539
 page

00:43:13.539 --> 00:43:14.320
 835.

00:43:15.760 --> 00:43:16.340
 Jesus

00:43:16.340 --> 00:43:16.880
 came

00:43:16.880 --> 00:43:17.360
 and said

00:43:17.360 --> 00:43:17.780
 to them,

00:43:19.000 --> 00:43:19.179
 all

00:43:19.179 --> 00:43:19.699
 authority

00:43:19.699 --> 00:43:20.539
 in

00:43:20.539 --> 00:43:20.920
 heaven

00:43:20.920 --> 00:43:21.440
 and on

00:43:21.440 --> 00:43:21.920
 earth

00:43:21.920 --> 00:43:22.860
 has been

00:43:22.860 --> 00:43:23.139
 given

00:43:23.139 --> 00:43:23.720
 to me.

00:43:24.720 --> 00:43:24.900
 Go

00:43:24.900 --> 00:43:25.300
 therefore,

00:43:26.099 --> 00:43:26.619
 make

00:43:26.619 --> 00:43:27.539
 disciples

00:43:27.539 --> 00:43:28.199
 of all

00:43:28.199 --> 00:43:28.679
 nations,

00:43:29.199 --> 00:43:29.820
 baptizing

00:43:29.820 --> 00:43:30.220
 them

00:43:30.220 --> 00:43:31.099
 in the

00:43:31.099 --> 00:43:31.340
 name of

00:43:31.340 --> 00:43:31.480
 the

00:43:31.480 --> 00:43:31.800
 Father

00:43:31.800 --> 00:43:32.639
 and of

00:43:32.639 --> 00:43:32.800
 the

00:43:32.800 --> 00:43:33.099
 Son

00:43:33.099 --> 00:43:33.740
 and of

00:43:33.740 --> 00:43:33.860
 the

00:43:33.860 --> 00:43:34.039
 Holy

00:43:34.039 --> 00:43:34.500
 Spirit,

00:43:35.400 --> 00:43:35.760
 teaching

00:43:35.760 --> 00:43:36.140
 them

00:43:36.140 --> 00:43:36.320
 to

00:43:36.320 --> 00:43:36.760
 observe

00:43:36.760 --> 00:43:37.340
 all

00:43:37.340 --> 00:43:37.720
 that

00:43:37.720 --> 00:43:37.800
 I

00:43:37.800 --> 00:43:37.940
 have

00:43:37.940 --> 00:43:38.420
 commanded

00:43:38.420 --> 00:43:38.760
 you

00:43:38.760 --> 00:43:38.940
 and

00:43:38.940 --> 00:43:39.360
 behold,

00:43:39.360 --> 00:43:39.820
 I

00:43:39.820 --> 00:43:39.960
 am

00:43:39.960 --> 00:43:40.200
 with

00:43:40.200 --> 00:43:40.460
 you

00:43:40.460 --> 00:43:41.040
 always

00:43:41.040 --> 00:43:41.280
 to

00:43:41.280 --> 00:43:41.480
 the

00:43:41.480 --> 00:43:41.940
 end

00:43:41.940 --> 00:43:42.600
 of

00:43:42.600 --> 00:43:42.740
 the

00:43:42.740 --> 00:43:43.220
 age.

00:43:44.520 --> 00:43:44.760
 God

00:43:44.760 --> 00:43:44.940
 has

00:43:44.940 --> 00:43:45.360
 called

00:43:45.360 --> 00:43:45.780
 you

00:43:45.780 --> 00:43:46.660
 to

00:43:46.660 --> 00:43:46.800
 have

00:43:46.800 --> 00:43:46.980
 a

00:43:46.980 --> 00:43:47.480
 heart

00:43:47.480 --> 00:43:47.940
 for

00:43:47.940 --> 00:43:48.060
 the

00:43:48.060 --> 00:43:48.600
 nations,

00:43:49.020 --> 00:43:50.140
 where

00:43:50.140 --> 00:43:50.340
 you

00:43:50.340 --> 00:43:50.680
 are,

00:43:51.560 --> 00:43:51.780
 or

00:43:51.780 --> 00:43:52.280
 perhaps

00:43:52.280 --> 00:43:52.700
 even

00:43:52.700 --> 00:43:52.980
 here

00:43:52.980 --> 00:43:53.200
 this

00:43:53.200 --> 00:43:53.560
 morning,

00:43:54.300 --> 00:43:54.780
 somewhere

00:43:54.780 --> 00:43:55.260
 else.

00:43:56.840 --> 00:43:57.380
 As I

00:43:57.380 --> 00:43:57.520
 was

00:43:57.520 --> 00:43:57.820
 looking

00:43:57.820 --> 00:43:58.260
 through

00:43:58.260 --> 00:43:58.660
 the

00:43:58.660 --> 00:43:59.380
 website

00:43:59.380 --> 00:43:59.920
 of

00:43:59.920 --> 00:44:00.760
 Wycliffe

00:44:00.760 --> 00:44:01.400
 Mission

00:44:01.400 --> 00:44:01.940
 Agency,

00:44:02.160 --> 00:44:02.780
 I was

00:44:02.780 --> 00:44:03.240
 looking at

00:44:03.240 --> 00:44:03.680
 all the

00:44:03.680 --> 00:44:04.160
 names of

00:44:04.160 --> 00:44:04.560
 all the

00:44:04.560 --> 00:44:04.940
 people

00:44:04.940 --> 00:44:05.539
 represented

00:44:05.539 --> 00:44:06.019
 by their

00:44:06.019 --> 00:44:06.240
 mission

00:44:06.240 --> 00:44:06.700
 agency.

00:44:07.320 --> 00:44:07.700
 And all

00:44:07.700 --> 00:44:08.280
 the places

00:44:08.280 --> 00:44:08.820
 they are

00:44:08.820 --> 00:44:09.420
 around the

00:44:09.420 --> 00:44:09.639
 world,

00:44:09.780 --> 00:44:10.440
 the faces

00:44:10.440 --> 00:44:10.900
 and the

00:44:10.900 --> 00:44:11.400
 families

00:44:11.400 --> 00:44:12.200
 who've been

00:44:12.200 --> 00:44:12.840
 displaced,

00:44:13.400 --> 00:44:14.179
 essentially they've

00:44:14.179 --> 00:44:14.920
 chosen to be

00:44:14.920 --> 00:44:15.980
 displaced from

00:44:15.980 --> 00:44:16.260
 here,

00:44:16.740 --> 00:44:17.280
 so they can

00:44:17.280 --> 00:44:18.000
 serve God

00:44:18.000 --> 00:44:18.599
 in a

00:44:18.599 --> 00:44:19.340
 location that

00:44:19.340 --> 00:44:20.079
 people need

00:44:20.079 --> 00:44:20.760
 desperately to

00:44:20.760 --> 00:44:21.480
 hear the

00:44:21.480 --> 00:44:21.800
 scripture,

00:44:22.720 --> 00:44:23.019
 and have it

00:44:23.019 --> 00:44:23.860
 translated into

00:44:23.860 --> 00:44:24.159
 their own

00:44:24.159 --> 00:44:24.900
 heart language.

00:44:26.000 --> 00:44:26.260
 And I was

00:44:26.260 --> 00:44:26.780
 just blown

00:44:26.780 --> 00:44:27.539
 away with

00:44:27.539 --> 00:44:29.420
 the immense

00:44:29.420 --> 00:44:30.400
 privilege

00:44:30.400 --> 00:44:32.360
 of serving

00:44:32.360 --> 00:44:33.059
 God in

00:44:33.059 --> 00:44:34.280
 a foreign

00:44:34.280 --> 00:44:34.900
 place,

00:44:34.920 --> 00:44:35.380
 of being

00:44:35.380 --> 00:44:36.039
 used by

00:44:36.039 --> 00:44:36.440
 him in

00:44:36.440 --> 00:44:36.760
 a way

00:44:36.760 --> 00:44:38.280
 to lead

00:44:38.280 --> 00:44:39.139
 a group

00:44:39.139 --> 00:44:39.800
 of individuals

00:44:39.800 --> 00:44:40.599
 to himself

00:44:40.599 --> 00:44:43.099
 because of

00:44:43.099 --> 00:44:44.480
 a desire

00:44:44.480 --> 00:44:45.240
 to be

00:44:45.240 --> 00:44:45.639
 useful,

00:44:46.200 --> 00:44:46.380
 and a

00:44:46.380 --> 00:44:46.660
 willingness

00:44:46.660 --> 00:44:47.240
 to take

00:44:47.240 --> 00:44:48.099
 risks for

00:44:48.099 --> 00:44:48.320
 him.

00:44:50.039 --> 00:44:50.780
 But what

00:44:50.780 --> 00:44:51.300
 do we do

00:44:51.300 --> 00:44:52.139
 here and

00:44:52.139 --> 00:44:52.440
 now?

00:44:53.480 --> 00:44:54.079
 How can

00:44:54.079 --> 00:44:54.680
 we be part

00:44:54.680 --> 00:44:55.480
 of this

00:44:55.480 --> 00:44:57.500
 mission

00:44:57.500 --> 00:44:59.340
 mindedness

00:44:59.340 --> 00:44:59.719
 here,

00:45:00.119 --> 00:45:00.719
 where God

00:45:00.719 --> 00:45:01.219
 has placed

00:45:01.219 --> 00:45:01.679
 us?

00:45:03.519 --> 00:45:04.240
 I believe

00:45:04.240 --> 00:45:04.880
 we can also

00:45:04.880 --> 00:45:05.900
 pray for

00:45:05.900 --> 00:45:06.519
 the nations.

00:45:07.099 --> 00:45:08.159
 Pray for

00:45:08.159 --> 00:45:08.639
 the nations.

00:45:09.559 --> 00:45:10.179
 In Matthew

00:45:10.179 --> 00:45:11.039
 chapter 9,

00:45:11.820 --> 00:45:12.820
 verses 37

00:45:12.820 --> 00:45:13.500
 and 38,

00:45:13.740 --> 00:45:14.159
 it says,

00:45:14.579 --> 00:45:15.260
 Jesus went

00:45:15.260 --> 00:45:15.699
 through all

00:45:15.699 --> 00:45:16.159
 the cities

00:45:16.159 --> 00:45:16.699
 and villages,

00:45:16.880 --> 00:45:17.840
 teaching in

00:45:17.840 --> 00:45:18.400
 their synagogue,

00:45:18.619 --> 00:45:19.380
 and proclaiming

00:45:19.380 --> 00:45:19.940
 the gospel

00:45:19.940 --> 00:45:20.880
 of the kingdom,

00:45:21.460 --> 00:45:22.079
 in healing

00:45:22.079 --> 00:45:22.820
 every disease,

00:45:22.940 --> 00:45:23.260
 in every

00:45:23.260 --> 00:45:23.760
 affliction.

00:45:24.599 --> 00:45:25.139
 When he saw

00:45:25.139 --> 00:45:25.679
 the crowds,

00:45:25.779 --> 00:45:26.059
 he had

00:45:26.059 --> 00:45:26.579
 compassion

00:45:26.579 --> 00:45:27.000
 for them

00:45:27.000 --> 00:45:28.199
 because they

00:45:28.199 --> 00:45:29.599
 were harassed

00:45:29.599 --> 00:45:30.079
 and helpless,

00:45:30.819 --> 00:45:31.480
 like sheep

00:45:31.480 --> 00:45:32.000
 without a

00:45:32.000 --> 00:45:32.299
 shepherd.

00:45:33.599 --> 00:45:33.920
 Then he

00:45:33.920 --> 00:45:34.319
 said to his

00:45:34.319 --> 00:45:34.739
 disciples,

00:45:35.619 --> 00:45:36.460
 the harvest

00:45:36.460 --> 00:45:37.759
 is plentiful,

00:45:38.279 --> 00:45:38.779
 but the

00:45:38.779 --> 00:45:39.539
 laborers are

00:45:39.539 --> 00:45:39.739
 few.

00:45:39.859 --> 00:45:40.139
 Therefore,

00:45:40.339 --> 00:45:41.400
 pray earnestly

00:45:41.400 --> 00:45:42.379
 to the Lord

00:45:42.379 --> 00:45:42.980
 of the harvest

00:45:42.980 --> 00:45:43.759
 to send out

00:45:43.759 --> 00:45:44.519
 laborers

00:45:44.519 --> 00:45:46.159
 into his

00:45:46.159 --> 00:45:46.599
 harvest.

00:45:47.799 --> 00:45:48.559
 You can

00:45:48.559 --> 00:45:49.079
 have a

00:45:49.079 --> 00:45:49.619
 mission's

00:45:49.619 --> 00:45:50.239
 heart right

00:45:50.239 --> 00:45:50.539
 where you

00:45:50.539 --> 00:45:50.759
 are.

00:45:51.500 --> 00:45:52.299
 By committing

00:45:52.299 --> 00:45:53.179
 yourself to

00:45:53.179 --> 00:45:54.219
 pray for

00:45:54.219 --> 00:45:54.879
 the peoples

00:45:54.880 --> 00:45:55.579
 of the

00:45:55.579 --> 00:45:55.920
 world.

00:45:57.220 --> 00:45:57.500
 I don't

00:45:57.500 --> 00:45:57.700
 know if

00:45:57.700 --> 00:45:58.019
 you're aware

00:45:58.019 --> 00:45:58.280
 of this,

00:45:58.360 --> 00:45:58.579
 but there

00:45:58.579 --> 00:45:59.780
 are somewhere

00:45:59.780 --> 00:46:01.960
 around 16,000

00:46:01.960 --> 00:46:03.180
 people groups

00:46:03.180 --> 00:46:04.280
 in the world

00:46:04.280 --> 00:46:05.400
 with different

00:46:05.400 --> 00:46:06.280
 languages and

00:46:06.280 --> 00:46:07.380
 customs and

00:46:07.380 --> 00:46:07.860
 culture.

00:46:08.099 --> 00:46:08.800
 They may live

00:46:08.800 --> 00:46:09.460
 in the same

00:46:09.460 --> 00:46:10.760
 general area,

00:46:10.980 --> 00:46:12.260
 but because of

00:46:12.260 --> 00:46:13.519
 the distinctiveness

00:46:13.519 --> 00:46:14.320
 of their culture,

00:46:14.579 --> 00:46:15.700
 they're called a

00:46:15.700 --> 00:46:16.420
 separate people

00:46:16.420 --> 00:46:16.800
 group.

00:46:18.740 --> 00:46:20.320
 6,000 of

00:46:20.320 --> 00:46:20.539
 them.

00:46:21.620 --> 00:46:23.460
 6,000 of

00:46:23.460 --> 00:46:24.860
 them do

00:46:24.860 --> 00:46:25.780
 not have

00:46:25.780 --> 00:46:27.300
 access to

00:46:27.300 --> 00:46:27.820
 the gospel.

00:46:29.519 --> 00:46:30.220
 It's estimated

00:46:30.220 --> 00:46:30.780
 as many as

00:46:30.780 --> 00:46:32.820
 41% of the

00:46:32.820 --> 00:46:33.440
 world's

00:46:33.440 --> 00:46:35.380
 population has

00:46:35.380 --> 00:46:36.480
 never heard

00:46:36.480 --> 00:46:37.420
 the gospel.

00:46:38.660 --> 00:46:39.320
 And as many

00:46:39.320 --> 00:46:40.460
 as 3 billion

00:46:40.460 --> 00:46:41.019
 people,

00:46:43.019 --> 00:46:43.740
 they have

00:46:43.740 --> 00:46:44.260
 less than

00:46:44.260 --> 00:46:46.120
 2% of

00:46:46.120 --> 00:46:46.720
 Christian

00:46:46.720 --> 00:46:47.460
 influence

00:46:47.460 --> 00:46:48.059
 where they

00:46:48.059 --> 00:46:48.240
 are.

00:46:48.239 --> 00:46:49.539
 There is no

00:46:49.539 --> 00:46:49.879
 Bible.

00:46:50.019 --> 00:46:50.479
 There is no

00:46:50.479 --> 00:46:50.839
 witness.

00:46:51.259 --> 00:46:51.719
 There is no

00:46:51.719 --> 00:46:53.019
 exposure to

00:46:53.019 --> 00:46:53.419
 Christ.

00:46:55.279 --> 00:46:56.039
 But you can

00:46:56.039 --> 00:46:56.259
 pray.

00:46:58.339 --> 00:46:59.099
 Several years

00:46:59.099 --> 00:47:00.579
 ago, my

00:47:00.579 --> 00:47:01.259
 kids kind of

00:47:01.259 --> 00:47:01.599
 set the

00:47:01.599 --> 00:47:02.239
 example for

00:47:02.239 --> 00:47:02.679
 their daddy.

00:47:03.979 --> 00:47:04.359
 And every

00:47:04.359 --> 00:47:05.039
 night, they

00:47:05.039 --> 00:47:06.219
 would pray for

00:47:06.219 --> 00:47:07.119
 the Jum Jum

00:47:07.119 --> 00:47:07.459
 people.

00:47:08.459 --> 00:47:09.279
 A group of

00:47:09.279 --> 00:47:10.419
 individuals in

00:47:10.419 --> 00:47:10.779
 the northern

00:47:10.779 --> 00:47:11.379
 part of, I

00:47:11.379 --> 00:47:11.500
 think,

00:47:11.579 --> 00:47:12.019
 Cambodia.

00:47:12.019 --> 00:47:13.019
 people in

00:47:13.019 --> 00:47:14.019
 the northern

00:47:14.019 --> 00:47:15.019
 area.

00:47:15.019 --> 00:47:15.380
 And every

00:47:15.380 --> 00:47:13.780
 night for

00:47:13.780 --> 00:47:14.599
 four years,

00:47:14.719 --> 00:47:14.960
 they would

00:47:14.960 --> 00:47:16.039
 pray for the

00:47:16.039 --> 00:47:16.559
 Jum Jum

00:47:16.559 --> 00:47:16.940
 people.

00:47:17.840 --> 00:47:18.460
 Who are

00:47:18.460 --> 00:47:19.019
 these people?

00:47:19.619 --> 00:47:20.280
 I've never

00:47:20.280 --> 00:47:20.780
 met them.

00:47:21.920 --> 00:47:22.300
 But wouldn't

00:47:22.300 --> 00:47:22.739
 you know, we

00:47:22.739 --> 00:47:24.360
 get a postcard

00:47:24.360 --> 00:47:25.059
 in the mail

00:47:25.059 --> 00:47:26.039
 because we

00:47:26.039 --> 00:47:26.480
 had expressed

00:47:26.480 --> 00:47:27.320
 some interest

00:47:27.320 --> 00:47:27.860
 in this group

00:47:27.860 --> 00:47:28.440
 of individuals.

00:47:29.440 --> 00:47:30.039
 And God

00:47:30.039 --> 00:47:30.840
 sent a

00:47:30.840 --> 00:47:31.539
 missionary to

00:47:31.539 --> 00:47:32.000
 the Jum

00:47:32.000 --> 00:47:32.280

00:47:32.280 --> 00:47:33.239

00:47:33.239 --> 00:47:34.539
 think, because

00:47:34.539 --> 00:47:35.179
 of my kids'

00:47:35.599 --> 00:47:35.820
 prayer.

00:47:36.599 --> 00:47:37.460
 Praying for

00:47:37.460 --> 00:47:38.860
 this group of

00:47:38.860 --> 00:47:40.079
 individuals that

00:47:40.079 --> 00:47:40.739
 did not have a

00:47:40.739 --> 00:47:41.559
 Bible in their

00:47:41.559 --> 00:47:41.979
 own heart

00:47:41.979 --> 00:47:42.479
 language.

00:47:43.019 --> 00:47:43.679
 God showed

00:47:43.679 --> 00:47:44.479
 up and

00:47:44.479 --> 00:47:45.619
 answered that

00:47:45.619 --> 00:47:45.939
 prayer.

00:47:47.059 --> 00:47:48.259
 You can be a

00:47:48.259 --> 00:47:49.299
 part of global

00:47:49.299 --> 00:47:50.579

00:47:51.239 --> 00:47:51.799
 through prayer.

00:47:53.439 --> 00:47:53.979
 These are just

00:47:53.979 --> 00:47:55.419
 three different

00:47:55.419 --> 00:47:56.219
 people groups

00:47:56.219 --> 00:47:56.979
 that we're

00:47:56.979 --> 00:47:57.459
 putting up on

00:47:57.459 --> 00:47:57.959
 the screen.

00:47:58.819 --> 00:47:59.459
 There are a

00:47:59.459 --> 00:48:00.299
 hundred prayer

00:48:00.299 --> 00:48:01.819
 cards out on

00:48:01.819 --> 00:48:02.599
 the table

00:48:02.599 --> 00:48:04.019
 underneath the

00:48:04.019 --> 00:48:05.019
 missionary board.

00:48:05.779 --> 00:48:06.179
 A hundred

00:48:06.179 --> 00:48:07.099
 people groups

00:48:07.099 --> 00:48:08.379
 that have never

00:48:08.379 --> 00:48:09.179
 heard the

00:48:09.179 --> 00:48:09.619
 gospel.

00:48:10.739 --> 00:48:11.819
 will you

00:48:11.819 --> 00:48:12.459
 partner with

00:48:12.459 --> 00:48:12.719
 me?

00:48:13.419 --> 00:48:14.259
 Maybe adopt

00:48:14.259 --> 00:48:15.239
 a people

00:48:15.239 --> 00:48:16.179
 group, just

00:48:16.179 --> 00:48:17.439
 one, perhaps

00:48:17.439 --> 00:48:18.119
 for your family

00:48:18.119 --> 00:48:18.679
 or one for

00:48:18.679 --> 00:48:19.179
 yourself.

00:48:19.799 --> 00:48:20.219
 Put it in a

00:48:20.219 --> 00:48:20.719
 place that's

00:48:20.719 --> 00:48:21.079
 visible.

00:48:21.819 --> 00:48:22.839
 Pray that God

00:48:22.839 --> 00:48:23.459
 will do a

 work in a

00:48:24.699 --> 00:48:26.019
 tribe of

00:48:26.019 --> 00:48:26.839
 individuals who

00:48:26.839 --> 00:48:27.319
 have never

00:48:27.319 --> 00:48:27.839
 heard the

00:48:27.839 --> 00:48:28.239
 gospel.

00:48:29.979 --> 00:48:30.619
 Maybe God

00:48:30.619 --> 00:48:32.039
 will use your

00:48:32.039 --> 00:48:34.199
 prayers to

00:48:34.199 --> 00:48:35.459
 bring the

00:48:35.459 --> 00:48:36.459
 scripture to a

00:48:36.459 --> 00:48:36.799
 group of

00:48:36.799 --> 00:48:37.059
 people.

00:48:38.199 --> 00:48:38.639
 Will you do

00:48:38.639 --> 00:48:39.219
 that with me

00:48:39.219 --> 00:48:39.819
 for the next

00:48:39.819 --> 00:48:42.000
 two months?

00:48:42.839 --> 00:48:43.839
 November and

00:48:43.839 --> 00:48:44.319
 December?

00:48:44.839 --> 00:48:45.519
 Will we pray

00:48:45.519 --> 00:48:47.299
 every day for

00:48:47.299 --> 00:48:48.199
 one of those

00:48:48.199 --> 00:48:48.839
 people groups

00:48:48.839 --> 00:48:49.459
 and see what

00:48:49.459 --> 00:48:50.319
 God might do

00:48:50.319 --> 00:48:51.779
 to show up

00:48:51.779 --> 00:48:53.000
 for a group of

00:48:53.000 --> 00:48:54.359
 individuals that

00:48:54.359 --> 00:48:54.719
 don't know

00:48:54.719 --> 00:48:55.179
 Jesus?

00:48:56.459 --> 00:48:57.339
 Something that

00:48:57.339 --> 00:48:57.739
 we take for

00:48:57.739 --> 00:48:57.980
 granted.

00:48:59.259 --> 00:49:00.019
 Let's pray.

00:49:00.019 --> 00:49:00.059
 Let's pray.

00:49:00.059 --> 00:49:05.759
 God, we are

00:49:05.759 --> 00:49:08.579
 so, so

00:49:08.579 --> 00:49:09.539
 grateful this

00:49:09.539 --> 00:49:11.559
 morning that

00:49:11.559 --> 00:49:12.159
 you have set

00:49:12.159 --> 00:49:13.699
 your affection on

00:49:13.699 --> 00:49:15.340
 the nations and

00:49:15.340 --> 00:49:15.980
 we are here

00:49:15.980 --> 00:49:17.679
 today because you

00:49:17.679 --> 00:49:18.759
 have chosen not

00:49:18.759 --> 00:49:19.599
 to destroy.

00:49:21.739 --> 00:49:22.659
 You have

00:49:22.659 --> 00:49:24.840
 chosen by your

00:49:24.840 --> 00:49:25.599
 mercy to show

00:49:25.599 --> 00:49:26.059
 grace.

00:49:26.059 --> 00:49:27.699
 God, we

00:49:27.699 --> 00:49:28.599
 are here because

00:49:28.599 --> 00:49:29.920
 there are those

00:49:29.920 --> 00:49:30.460
 who committed

00:49:30.460 --> 00:49:31.579
 themselves regardless

00:49:31.579 --> 00:49:33.519
 of the challenges

00:49:33.519 --> 00:49:34.739
 to get the

00:49:34.739 --> 00:49:35.619
 gospel out.

00:49:36.679 --> 00:49:37.500
 We are here

00:49:37.500 --> 00:49:39.299
 because of the

00:49:39.299 --> 00:49:41.099
 legacy of

00:49:41.099 --> 00:49:41.920
 faithful men and

00:49:41.920 --> 00:49:42.619
 women throughout

00:49:42.619 --> 00:49:44.940
 the thousands of

00:49:44.940 --> 00:49:45.500
 years from

00:49:45.500 --> 00:49:48.059
 Christ who have

00:49:48.059 --> 00:49:49.119
 perpetuated the

00:49:49.119 --> 00:49:50.119
 gospel message and

00:49:50.119 --> 00:49:51.400
 brought it to us.

00:49:51.400 --> 00:49:53.960
 Lord, may we be

00:49:53.960 --> 00:49:55.840
 about the

00:49:55.840 --> 00:49:56.240
 gospel.

00:49:57.180 --> 00:49:58.420
 May we echo

00:49:58.420 --> 00:49:59.760
 the gospel

00:49:59.760 --> 00:50:01.660
 heart of our

00:50:01.660 --> 00:50:03.320
 mission-oriented

00:50:03.320 --> 00:50:05.500
 God, a God

00:50:05.500 --> 00:50:06.320
 whose heart is

00:50:06.320 --> 00:50:07.119
 for the

00:50:07.119 --> 00:50:07.680
 nations.

00:50:09.539 --> 00:50:10.240
 Awaken us,

00:50:10.400 --> 00:50:11.579
 Lord, with a

00:50:11.579 --> 00:50:13.039
 similar heart.

00:50:14.780 --> 00:50:15.460
 Catch us up,

00:50:15.579 --> 00:50:16.980
 Lord, with an

00:50:16.980 --> 00:50:18.180
 interest in people

00:50:18.180 --> 00:50:19.139
 who do not

00:50:19.139 --> 00:50:19.559
 know you.

00:50:19.559 --> 00:50:21.699
 overwhelm us,

00:50:22.019 --> 00:50:22.599
 Lord, with a

00:50:22.599 --> 00:50:25.059
 burden for the

00:50:25.059 --> 00:50:26.659
 nations that

00:50:26.659 --> 00:50:28.159
 echoes and

00:50:28.159 --> 00:50:29.139
 mimics the

00:50:29.139 --> 00:50:29.920
 heart of our

00:50:29.920 --> 00:50:30.219
 Savior.

00:50:30.860 --> 00:50:31.619
 We pray in

00:50:31.619 --> 00:50:32.259
 Jesus' name.

00:50:32.639 --> 00:50:32.860
 Amen.

00:50:38.199 --> 00:50:38.880
 Let's stand

00:50:38.880 --> 00:50:39.320
 as we sing.

00:50:44.440 --> 00:50:45.239
 Sing together.

00:50:45.239 --> 00:50:48.000
 I will glory

00:50:48.000 --> 00:50:50.000
 in my

00:50:50.000 --> 00:50:51.099
 Redeemer,

00:50:51.699 --> 00:50:53.059
 whose priceless

00:50:53.059 --> 00:50:55.459
 blood has

00:50:55.459 --> 00:50:57.539
 ransomed me,

00:50:58.039 --> 00:50:58.399
 my

00:50:58.399 --> 00:51:01.519
 sin that

00:51:01.519 --> 00:51:02.599
 drove the

00:51:02.599 --> 00:51:03.259
 bitter

00:51:03.259 --> 00:51:05.659
 nails and

00:51:05.659 --> 00:51:07.179
 hung him on

00:51:07.179 --> 00:51:08.379
 that judgment

00:51:08.379 --> 00:51:09.199
 tree.

00:51:10.419 --> 00:51:11.659
 I will

00:51:11.659 --> 00:51:13.759
 glory in

00:51:13.760 --> 00:51:14.500
 my

00:51:14.500 --> 00:51:15.480
 Redeemer,

00:51:15.480 --> 00:51:17.340
 who crushed

00:51:17.340 --> 00:51:18.860
 the power

00:51:18.860 --> 00:51:20.460
 of sin

00:51:20.460 --> 00:51:22.000
 and death,

00:51:22.440 --> 00:51:23.800
 my only

00:51:23.800 --> 00:51:24.560
 Savior

00:51:24.560 --> 00:51:27.020
 before the

00:51:27.020 --> 00:51:27.740
 holy

00:51:27.740 --> 00:51:30.140
 judge,

00:51:30.620 --> 00:51:31.600
 the Lamb

00:51:31.600 --> 00:51:33.100
 who is my

00:51:33.100 --> 00:51:34.200
 righteousness,

00:51:36.260 --> 00:51:37.680
 the Lamb

00:51:37.680 --> 00:51:39.340
 who is my

00:51:39.340 --> 00:51:40.360
 righteousness.

00:51:40.360 --> 00:51:45.120
 of course,

00:51:45.240 --> 00:51:45.680
 if there are

00:51:45.680 --> 00:51:46.220
 any of you

00:51:46.220 --> 00:51:46.800
 this morning

00:51:46.800 --> 00:51:47.940
 who just

00:51:47.940 --> 00:51:49.140
 need to

00:51:49.140 --> 00:51:49.620
 talk,

00:51:50.320 --> 00:51:50.760
 we want to

00:51:50.760 --> 00:51:51.420
 be an open

00:51:51.420 --> 00:51:51.960
 channel for

00:51:51.960 --> 00:51:52.300
 that,

00:51:52.400 --> 00:51:53.320
 for you to

00:51:53.320 --> 00:51:53.720
 share your

00:51:53.720 --> 00:51:54.200
 burdens and

00:51:54.200 --> 00:51:54.740
 we can pray

00:51:54.740 --> 00:51:55.360
 with you.

00:51:55.940 --> 00:51:56.660
 If there are

00:51:56.660 --> 00:51:57.599
 people here

00:51:57.599 --> 00:51:58.099
 this morning

00:51:58.099 --> 00:51:58.400
 who don't

00:51:58.400 --> 00:51:59.019
 know Jesus,

00:51:59.620 --> 00:52:00.240
 we would love

00:52:00.240 --> 00:52:00.680
 to introduce

00:52:00.680 --> 00:52:01.340
 you to

00:52:01.340 --> 00:52:02.400
 him and

00:52:02.400 --> 00:52:02.920
 let you

00:52:02.920 --> 00:52:04.300
 in on the

00:52:04.300 --> 00:52:05.000
 joy of

00:52:05.000 --> 00:52:06.099
 knowing and

00:52:06.099 --> 00:52:06.660
 fellowshipping

00:52:06.660 --> 00:52:07.039
 with our

00:52:07.039 --> 00:52:07.340
 God.

00:52:07.340 --> 00:52:08.960
 if there

00:52:08.960 --> 00:52:09.340
 are those

00:52:09.340 --> 00:52:09.640
 of you

00:52:09.640 --> 00:52:10.180
 this morning

00:52:10.180 --> 00:52:11.120
 who would

00:52:11.120 --> 00:52:11.340
 like to

00:52:11.340 --> 00:52:11.579
 become

00:52:11.579 --> 00:52:12.240
 members or

00:52:12.240 --> 00:52:12.760
 get baptized,

00:52:13.140 --> 00:52:13.960
 we certainly

00:52:13.960 --> 00:52:15.320
 want you to

00:52:15.320 --> 00:52:15.680
 be able to

00:52:15.680 --> 00:52:16.280
 express that

00:52:16.280 --> 00:52:17.280
 to us as

00:52:17.280 --> 00:52:17.539
 well.

00:52:18.760 --> 00:52:19.420
 But this

00:52:19.420 --> 00:52:19.940
 morning, I

00:52:19.940 --> 00:52:20.500
 hope as we

00:52:20.500 --> 00:52:21.180
 walk out

00:52:21.180 --> 00:52:21.860
 those doors,

00:52:22.000 --> 00:52:22.260
 we will

00:52:22.260 --> 00:52:23.340
 walk out

00:52:23.340 --> 00:52:24.420
 with a

00:52:24.420 --> 00:52:24.960
 renewed

00:52:24.960 --> 00:52:25.579
 commitment

00:52:25.579 --> 00:52:26.000
 for the

00:52:26.000 --> 00:52:26.400
 nations.

00:52:27.860 --> 00:52:28.620
 There may

00:52:28.620 --> 00:52:29.019
 be

00:52:29.019 --> 00:52:30.120
 jum jum

00:52:30.119 --> 00:52:31.359
 people in

00:52:31.359 --> 00:52:32.420
 heaven because

00:52:32.420 --> 00:52:32.980
 of my

00:52:32.980 --> 00:52:33.279
 kids.

00:52:34.699 --> 00:52:35.319
 There may

00:52:35.319 --> 00:52:37.759
 be a

00:52:37.759 --> 00:52:38.539
 people group

00:52:38.539 --> 00:52:39.539
 that God

00:52:39.539 --> 00:52:41.699
 rescues because

00:52:41.699 --> 00:52:42.440
 of your

00:52:42.440 --> 00:52:43.579
 prayers and

00:52:43.579 --> 00:52:44.539
 commitment to

00:52:44.539 --> 00:52:45.319
 adopt them as

00:52:45.319 --> 00:52:45.699
 your own.

00:52:46.920 --> 00:52:47.719
 To partner

00:52:47.719 --> 00:52:48.380
 with God

00:52:48.380 --> 00:52:49.059
 through prayer

00:52:49.059 --> 00:52:50.380
 and pleading

00:52:50.380 --> 00:52:51.119
 with him to

00:52:51.119 --> 00:52:52.519
 send them a

00:52:52.519 --> 00:52:52.900
 missionary.

00:52:54.099 --> 00:52:55.099
 Maybe even

00:52:55.099 --> 00:52:56.179
 send you.

00:52:57.920 --> 00:52:58.719
 I'm reminded

00:52:58.719 --> 00:52:59.279
 of the song

00:52:59.280 --> 00:53:01.900
 Jesus loves

00:53:01.900 --> 00:53:02.340
 the little

00:53:02.340 --> 00:53:02.800
 children.

00:53:03.900 --> 00:53:04.440
 All the

00:53:04.440 --> 00:53:05.320
 children of

00:53:05.320 --> 00:53:05.780
 the world,

00:53:06.560 --> 00:53:07.140
 red and

00:53:07.140 --> 00:53:07.460
 yellow,

00:53:07.640 --> 00:53:08.060
 black and

00:53:08.060 --> 00:53:08.260
 white,

00:53:08.340 --> 00:53:08.640
 they are

00:53:08.640 --> 00:53:10.000
 precious in

00:53:10.000 --> 00:53:10.500
 his sight.

00:53:11.019 --> 00:53:12.080
 Jesus loves

00:53:12.080 --> 00:53:12.920
 the little

00:53:12.920 --> 00:53:13.620
 children of

00:53:13.620 --> 00:53:13.960
 the world.

00:53:14.980 --> 00:53:15.500
 Do you

00:53:15.500 --> 00:53:16.280
 have a

00:53:16.280 --> 00:53:17.260
 heart for

00:53:17.260 --> 00:53:17.640
 the world?

00:53:18.320 --> 00:53:18.820
 May God

00:53:18.820 --> 00:53:19.980
 help us to

00:53:19.980 --> 00:53:20.580
 show that

00:53:20.580 --> 00:53:21.320
 this week.

 Thanks for
