00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:08.320
 Hello everyone. I've seen quite a few new faces today, or faces I haven't seen before.

00:00:08.740 --> 00:00:14.200
 Just in case I'm from Peru, naturally I don't speak English as my native language, it's Spanish.

00:00:14.939 --> 00:00:18.960
 And I have a son who is going to be two years old in a month, less than a month now.

00:00:19.580 --> 00:00:21.660
 And I've been forcing him to be bilingual.

00:00:22.539 --> 00:00:25.660
 And I'm pushing for him to speak Spanish and English at the same time.

00:00:25.660 --> 00:00:31.260
 And that's causing a toll on me in so many ways, because I'm kind of speaking now Spanglish.

00:00:32.119 --> 00:00:36.420
 So, throughout my sermon, you feel I'm saying something you don't understand, it's probably Spanglish.

00:00:36.859 --> 00:00:40.600
 Just in case. But anyway, we are supposed to... that's my excuse anyway.

00:00:41.299 --> 00:00:43.480
 But we are here to dig into this song.

00:00:44.400 --> 00:00:51.840
 And what I want you to do now is to think there in your seat.

00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:56.040
 When was the last time that you felt in danger?

00:00:57.880 --> 00:01:06.560
 When was the last time that you felt that you, or someone you really care, was in danger, or were in danger?

00:01:08.680 --> 00:01:12.520
 A time in your life when you just felt that your life was being threatened.

00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:18.519
 And what I want you to do is just to remember, how was your attitude in that time?

00:01:19.399 --> 00:01:21.659
 How was your reaction in that time?

00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:24.939
 And how was your handling of that situation?

00:01:26.319 --> 00:01:30.579
 Perhaps you were lucky enough not to have any dangerous situations in your life.

00:01:31.099 --> 00:01:33.719
 You've never been in that situation where you really felt you were in danger.

00:01:36.319 --> 00:01:37.099
 That's great.

00:01:37.099 --> 00:01:44.559
 But personally for me, I had been in several situations where my life was in danger.

00:01:45.299 --> 00:01:49.219
 And it was tough and difficult sometimes.

00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:58.379
 I particularly remember one, this particular situation where we had been commissioned to go and reach and help the setting of the church.

00:01:58.959 --> 00:02:02.579
 And in the middle of the Amazon, to one of those villages.

00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:05.019
 And it was deep, deep inside the Amazon.

00:02:05.019 --> 00:02:08.079
 And they wouldn't speak Spanish at all.

00:02:08.139 --> 00:02:09.479
 They would speak the local dialect.

00:02:10.120 --> 00:02:12.539
 So communication was kind of difficult with them.

00:02:13.680 --> 00:02:20.759
 And they tend to be not really engaging with outsiders either.

00:02:21.099 --> 00:02:28.139
 So we were just a random bunch of guys just coming there, showing up, trying to be in touch with them and set up a church.

00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:28.939
 That's great, isn't it?

00:02:28.939 --> 00:02:29.539
 It's a great thing.

00:02:29.539 --> 00:02:34.359
 And so naturally, we had some people very good and very engaging and responding.

00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:41.720
 But we also have, in a village of 120 people, some people who were really not happy with us.

00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:43.980
 And they were always keeping us in check.

00:02:44.820 --> 00:02:52.520
 Everything we do, no matter where we go, they were always like, we always knew there was this bunch of guys who were this, always keeping us in check.

00:02:52.520 --> 00:03:00.040
 And I particularly remember this night, this particular night, middle of the night, just well past midnight probably.

00:03:00.320 --> 00:03:01.580
 Can't remember what time exactly.

00:03:02.120 --> 00:03:05.020
 Because generally, when you are in the Amazon, there's no power there.

00:03:05.340 --> 00:03:06.820
 So after 6 p.m., you just go to sleep.

00:03:07.320 --> 00:03:08.460
 And then you wake up before 5.

00:03:08.540 --> 00:03:10.379
 So that's kind of the way it works.

00:03:10.660 --> 00:03:14.040
 But just can you imagine, just in the middle of the Amazon, we get this nook on the door.

00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:17.239
 And I just come up to the place where we stay in.

00:03:17.659 --> 00:03:27.959
 And when I come up, I just find this, there were a bunch of villagers with machetes, arrows, and shotguns in their hands.

00:03:28.979 --> 00:03:34.359
 Matt yelling at me and broke in Spanish and saying, you must sleep now.

00:03:36.379 --> 00:03:38.759
 I was kind of like, remember, this is the middle of the night.

00:03:39.219 --> 00:03:39.899
 This is the Amazon.

00:03:39.900 --> 00:03:44.980
 It's not like you're just going to catch a bus, get a cool taxi, and things are going to be easy for you.

00:03:45.599 --> 00:03:47.360
 And you go, these guys, we're actually drunk.

00:03:47.980 --> 00:03:48.780
 So it's even worse.

00:03:49.259 --> 00:03:50.560
 You don't really know what to do.

00:03:51.180 --> 00:03:54.640
 So I was like, you know, I was trying to deal with it and say, you know what the situation?

00:03:54.980 --> 00:03:55.960
 We're in the middle of the Amazon.

00:03:56.060 --> 00:03:56.700
 We cannot leave now.

00:03:56.800 --> 00:03:57.280
 It's midnight.

00:03:57.700 --> 00:03:58.659
 I'll just give us a couple hours.

00:03:58.740 --> 00:04:01.599
 Then we can just leave when the day clears and we can do that.

00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:06.819
 After some just talking and talking, eventually they say, okay, first thing in the morning, you are 11.

00:04:07.319 --> 00:04:08.259
 And they were just really serious.

00:04:08.420 --> 00:04:09.020
 It's very scary.

00:04:09.020 --> 00:04:11.020
 And so they left.

00:04:11.500 --> 00:04:15.020
 I remember myself going back to my hammock.

00:04:17.180 --> 00:04:20.780
 Just scared, as you can imagine.

00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:23.680
 Grabbing a machete in one of my hands.

00:04:25.579 --> 00:04:31.040
 And singing a song in a quiet voice based on that Psalm 27, but it's not there anymore.

00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:33.280
 In the Spanish version of Psalm 27.

00:04:34.139 --> 00:04:38.019
 And singing very quietly in my mind while I was there.

00:04:38.019 --> 00:04:39.079
 I know.

00:04:39.299 --> 00:04:40.479
 I still have a machete in my hands.

00:04:40.699 --> 00:04:40.939
 I know.

00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:43.199
 That doesn't say much of the point.

00:04:43.279 --> 00:04:43.620
 Trust me.

00:04:43.859 --> 00:04:49.539
 But to make a story short, it was difficult for me to sleep that night.

00:04:49.699 --> 00:04:52.719
 But eventually, the next day, the Lord was great.

00:04:52.899 --> 00:04:54.500
 He did a miracle in that place.

00:04:54.500 --> 00:04:56.379
 And we were able to stay for another few months.

00:04:56.839 --> 00:05:01.920
 And after that, we were able to, after a low, hard effort, we were able to set up a church.

00:05:02.019 --> 00:05:03.459
 Now it's a vibrant church in that place.

00:05:03.939 --> 00:05:04.879
 Just to make a story short.

00:05:05.300 --> 00:05:06.019
 It was a great thing.

00:05:06.079 --> 00:05:07.620
 But it was that night, particularly.

00:05:08.339 --> 00:05:09.480
 I really felt scared.

00:05:10.500 --> 00:05:13.019
 I really felt that these guys wanted to do something.

00:05:13.120 --> 00:05:13.720
 They were just doing it.

00:05:13.720 --> 00:05:18.440
 And I remember not even telling the bunch of guys sitting next to me.

00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:22.120
 I was just the one holding on on myself and being so scared of it.

00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:24.060
 But why am I telling you this?

00:05:25.140 --> 00:05:34.760
 I'm telling you this because, as you can see, sometimes in life, waiting under difficult times is tough.

00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:42.680
 Sometimes in life, waiting when we have difficult situations where our life is in danger, it's really tough.

00:05:43.379 --> 00:05:45.060
 And we are not very good at it.

00:05:45.980 --> 00:05:48.259
 Doesn't matter how many years of a Christian you are.

00:05:48.539 --> 00:05:50.719
 Doesn't matter how much of the law you know.

00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:52.399
 Doesn't matter how much of the Bible you know.

00:05:53.920 --> 00:05:55.639
 Doesn't matter how tough you think you are.

00:05:57.240 --> 00:06:04.579
 And one of the things we can see in this psalm is that, precisely, this is a guy, the one who wrote this psalm, which is David.

00:06:05.620 --> 00:06:11.240
 Who is able to keep himself together in a difficult situation.

00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:21.620
 And so, in so many ways, I just want us to see that and see just slightly carefully what it says.

00:06:22.339 --> 00:06:31.719
 But, we are never encouraged to suppose that Christian life will be easy and smooth or free from pressure.

00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:44.000
 Actually, it's something we learn from the psalms is that, in general, that, even in the toughness and the difficulties of times, the psalms, in general, what the psalms teaches us,

00:06:44.000 --> 00:06:50.959
 is that we can pray and we can call upon God in any single situation in our lives.

00:06:51.139 --> 00:06:52.319
 No matter what it is.

00:06:52.959 --> 00:06:59.759
 And you're going to describe what can you learn from the whole psalms, the 150 psalms, is that, doesn't matter what your situation is,

00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:01.920
 that you can count on God and you can pray on Him.

00:07:03.300 --> 00:07:05.079
 You can name whatever situation you can see.

00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:15.680
 Times of despair, when you are overwhelmed by danger, or sometimes you are anger, or sometimes you are starving, or sometimes you feel like something is not right with you.

00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:19.819
 And even sometimes when you feel like you are sin, you have sinned.

00:07:20.180 --> 00:07:27.100
 The psalms always teach us that we can always be in touch with God and come close to Him.

00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:33.740
 Especially in those dangerous situations, as I described the one for myself, and as we're going to see the one from David.

00:07:33.740 --> 00:07:41.900
 Something to say before we get into this psalm, about Psalm 27, a few things.

00:07:42.400 --> 00:07:53.100
 Psalm 27, along with Psalm 26 and 28, are three psalms whose main topic talks about waiting in God, or waiting in the Lord with confidence.

00:07:53.780 --> 00:07:58.699
 They are like triplet psalms, that are all part of the same idea altogether.

00:07:58.699 --> 00:08:04.219
 That we can wait for the Lord's help, in hope and in confidence, under difficult circumstances.

00:08:05.740 --> 00:08:11.279
 Words like the house of the Lord, temple and tabernacle, are frequently mentioned there.

00:08:11.740 --> 00:08:14.139
 You'll see it throughout these three psalms particularly.

00:08:14.500 --> 00:08:16.079
 Always been mentioned and mentioned.

00:08:16.620 --> 00:08:18.240
 I'll tell you all the end why I think it's that.

00:08:19.139 --> 00:08:23.899
 And particularly about this psalm, no one can read this well-known Psalm 27,

00:08:23.899 --> 00:08:32.199
 without being struck by the contrast that exists between the first one to six verses,

00:08:32.639 --> 00:08:35.319
 from the second part of the psalm, from 7 to 14.

00:08:35.720 --> 00:08:38.299
 There is like a different contrast between both of them.

00:08:39.980 --> 00:08:45.980
 And it is so marked that some commentators suggest that we have been,

00:08:45.980 --> 00:08:52.779
 what we have here is probably two psalms who have been composed under different circumstances,

00:08:53.279 --> 00:08:55.240
 that probably have been merged together.

00:08:55.700 --> 00:08:57.519
 Again, this is what some commentators think.

00:08:58.039 --> 00:08:59.940
 We don't have certainty to say that.

00:09:00.220 --> 00:09:04.120
 But it's just the contrast between one to six, from 7 to 14,

00:09:04.500 --> 00:09:06.240
 that make us believe that, make us think that.

00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:14.240
 But overall, both sections, it has something in common,

00:09:14.379 --> 00:09:19.960
 is that throughout a psalm, we can see the reality of David's faith.

00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:28.360
 It is important, however, to realize that this is not a faith that is fair weather only.

00:09:29.159 --> 00:09:32.399
 This is not a faith that only behaves when God is good.

00:09:32.399 --> 00:09:36.759
 But rather, this is a faith, displaying in the psalms,

00:09:36.980 --> 00:09:41.139
 that behaves in a way that doesn't matter what the situation is,

00:09:42.079 --> 00:09:48.319
 that the psalmist, David, still trusts in God under all the circumstances,

00:09:48.879 --> 00:09:50.199
 and under all the difficult pressures.

00:09:50.819 --> 00:09:55.379
 This is the kind of faith that stuns the shocks and pressures of life,

00:09:55.899 --> 00:09:59.279
 and comes out stronger from all these pressures.

00:09:59.279 --> 00:10:05.059
 But, to be honest, we can never have or display this kind of faith,

00:10:05.439 --> 00:10:07.159
 this kind of confidence as David had,

00:10:08.279 --> 00:10:12.120
 if we try to trust in a God that we don't know.

00:10:12.839 --> 00:10:14.679
 One of the things we see throughout the psalms,

00:10:14.740 --> 00:10:16.100
 and throughout the psalms in general,

00:10:16.639 --> 00:10:19.799
 that whoever the writer of that particular psalm you're reading is,

00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:25.279
 he is speaking from a point of knowing who his maker is,

00:10:25.799 --> 00:10:27.600
 for knowing who his God is.

00:10:27.600 --> 00:10:33.139
 We cannot never develop a confidence in a God that we don't know.

00:10:34.379 --> 00:10:37.740
 And perhaps that is something to keep in our hearts as we dig in into the world.

00:10:38.620 --> 00:10:41.300
 If we want to know how we can face tough times in our lives,

00:10:41.680 --> 00:10:42.740
 get to know your maker.

00:10:43.620 --> 00:10:44.860
 Get to know your creator.

00:10:45.460 --> 00:10:47.040
 Get to know who God is.

00:10:47.460 --> 00:10:48.759
 Once you know who God is,

00:10:49.340 --> 00:10:51.620
 you can actually develop

00:10:51.620 --> 00:10:54.740
 the patience to deal with tough times.

00:10:54.740 --> 00:10:55.879
 I think that's what we see.

00:10:56.159 --> 00:10:59.539
 Again, I'm saying so many things in general about the psalms before we dig into it.

00:11:00.519 --> 00:11:03.000
 And I really like the way the psalm finishes.

00:11:04.060 --> 00:11:06.060
 In verses 13 and 14, I'll just read it to you.

00:11:06.320 --> 00:11:07.580
 And he finishes in this way.

00:11:07.659 --> 00:11:09.919
 After all the struggles from the chapter, he says,

00:11:09.919 --> 00:11:26.819
 David definitely had to know his maker

00:11:26.819 --> 00:11:31.860
 to be able to learn a psalm with those difficulties like this.

00:11:31.860 --> 00:11:34.600
 And that's such a faithful, trustworthy way.

00:11:35.419 --> 00:11:38.779
 Anyway, so I divided this psalm in three different things.

00:11:38.899 --> 00:11:41.080
 So I'm going to be speaking from these three things today.

00:11:41.460 --> 00:11:43.100
 The things that I think David did.

00:11:43.480 --> 00:11:46.940
 And we can see in these things that we can actually do it ourselves.

00:11:47.320 --> 00:11:48.879
 So there are three things I think he did.

00:11:49.279 --> 00:11:51.800
 From verses 1 to 3,

00:11:52.220 --> 00:11:53.759
 what David is doing is,

00:11:54.039 --> 00:11:55.159
 David is remembering,

00:11:55.300 --> 00:11:57.720
 or David remembers who God is.

00:11:57.720 --> 00:11:59.879
 That is the first thing we see in this psalm,

00:11:59.940 --> 00:12:02.720
 that he remembers who God is from verses 1 to 3.

00:12:03.000 --> 00:12:04.580
 From verses 4 to 6,

00:12:05.540 --> 00:12:07.240
 he not only remembers who God is,

00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:10.779
 but he, David, delights in the beauty of God.

00:12:11.320 --> 00:12:13.680
 So from 1 to 3, he remembers who God is.

00:12:13.899 --> 00:12:15.279
 From 4 to 6,

00:12:15.279 --> 00:12:18.379
 he decides to delight in the beauty of God.

00:12:19.040 --> 00:12:21.560
 And in the last part, from 7 to 12,

00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:25.259
 David not only remembers who God is,

00:12:25.259 --> 00:12:27.540
 not only delights in the beauty of God,

00:12:27.720 --> 00:12:32.820
 but also he resolves to walk in God's way.

00:12:33.480 --> 00:12:35.399
 So those three things we're going to be seeing today.

00:12:35.700 --> 00:12:36.100
 And you're saying,

00:12:36.180 --> 00:12:37.540
 why are you not mentioning 13 and 14?

00:12:37.860 --> 00:12:41.740
 I think 13 and 14 has a whole global effect on the psalm

00:12:41.740 --> 00:12:43.139
 that I will tell you at the end.

00:12:44.019 --> 00:12:47.259
 So, let's read for a moment 1 to 3.

00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:49.840
 David remembers who God is.

00:12:50.980 --> 00:12:51.759
 This is what he says,

00:12:51.759 --> 00:12:53.519
 The Lord is my light and my salvation.

00:12:53.660 --> 00:12:54.420
 Who shall I fear?

00:12:55.100 --> 00:12:56.920
 The Lord is the stronghold of my life.

00:12:56.919 --> 00:12:58.579
 Of whom shall I be afraid?

00:12:59.299 --> 00:13:01.819
 When the wicked advance against me to dewar me,

00:13:02.299 --> 00:13:05.519
 it is my enemies and my foes who will stumble and fall.

00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:08.699
 Though an army beseech me,

00:13:08.939 --> 00:13:10.139
 my heart will not fear.

00:13:11.219 --> 00:13:13.240
 Though war break out against me,

00:13:13.379 --> 00:13:14.099
 even then,

00:13:14.659 --> 00:13:16.000
 I will be held confident.

00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:20.779
 If we are to wait with confidence in God,

00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:22.980
 we must remember who God is.

00:13:23.679 --> 00:13:27.120
 And if we're going to remember who God is,

00:13:27.500 --> 00:13:31.500
 it is so important that we see God rightly.

00:13:32.220 --> 00:13:34.379
 We see God on whom He is,

00:13:35.259 --> 00:13:36.919
 knowing the way we want Him to be.

00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:39.700
 So many times when we try to see about God,

00:13:39.700 --> 00:13:43.480
 we want to make God fit in our mind and our thinking

00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:45.080
 in the way we want God to be.

00:13:45.800 --> 00:13:47.720
 But it's something we see from David,

00:13:47.860 --> 00:13:49.660
 it's he sees God rightly.

00:13:50.520 --> 00:13:52.360
 David was being hunted down by enemies.

00:13:53.040 --> 00:13:55.520
 They were seeking Him with violence to take His life,

00:13:55.700 --> 00:13:57.080
 and they wanted Him dead.

00:13:58.480 --> 00:13:59.920
 Imagine yourself in that situation.

00:14:00.460 --> 00:14:01.379
 I can imagine myself,

00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:02.160
 I can relate to that.

00:14:02.680 --> 00:14:05.160
 Seeing all the things that were going on through His mind,

00:14:05.159 --> 00:14:09.659
 probably all the same things that would have been going through your mind

00:14:09.659 --> 00:14:10.679
 in a situation like that.

00:14:12.360 --> 00:14:14.059
 But perhaps not in David.

00:14:14.679 --> 00:14:18.759
 Because it seems to us that David knew who God was.

00:14:19.279 --> 00:14:20.139
 Look what he calls him.

00:14:20.399 --> 00:14:21.459
 God is my light.

00:14:21.539 --> 00:14:23.120
 He says, God was His light.

00:14:23.539 --> 00:14:25.059
 That light that shines in the darkness.

00:14:25.439 --> 00:14:26.419
 Even in His darkness,

00:14:26.419 --> 00:14:28.879
 God was shining His light upon him

00:14:28.879 --> 00:14:33.519
 and guiding him for the way to go.

00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:36.500
 God knew where to take him

00:14:36.500 --> 00:14:38.899
 because God knows everything.

00:14:39.579 --> 00:14:40.639
 He knows everything.

00:14:40.740 --> 00:14:43.120
 He doesn't need to Google for things to know where He's going.

00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:45.720
 God knows where to go and where to take us.

00:14:46.059 --> 00:14:47.919
 And I think David starts with that.

00:14:48.079 --> 00:14:49.120
 God is my light.

00:14:49.639 --> 00:14:50.299
 Why is it important?

00:14:51.000 --> 00:14:52.179
 Why is the light so important?

00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:53.840
 I'll tell you why it's important.

00:14:54.379 --> 00:14:54.919
 Just an example.

00:14:55.019 --> 00:14:56.740
 When you walk on the Amazon and it's so dark,

00:14:56.819 --> 00:14:57.439
 in the middle of the night,

00:14:57.860 --> 00:14:59.600
 and your flashlight is not working,

00:15:00.019 --> 00:15:01.360
 light is very important in that way.

00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:02.879
 So I think David says,

00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:04.000
 light is so important

00:15:04.000 --> 00:15:06.120
 because even when I'm struggling in this situation

00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:08.440
 and I don't know where to go,

00:15:09.159 --> 00:15:10.700
 God is my light.

00:15:12.480 --> 00:15:15.139
 And He can help me to see clearly.

00:15:15.639 --> 00:15:17.680
 He trusts that God is His life.

00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:19.899
 And He knows where to take Him.

00:15:20.279 --> 00:15:22.159
 But God wasn't only His light.

00:15:22.580 --> 00:15:25.039
 He was also His salvation.

00:15:25.039 --> 00:15:29.299
 It didn't matter who was surrounded David.

00:15:30.159 --> 00:15:32.259
 It didn't matter who his enemy was.

00:15:33.019 --> 00:15:36.219
 David knew that God was His salvation

00:15:36.219 --> 00:15:38.959
 and that whatever the enemy would be,

00:15:40.399 --> 00:15:41.379
 they couldn't even touch Him.

00:15:42.779 --> 00:15:44.079
 They couldn't even close to Him

00:15:44.079 --> 00:15:47.639
 because he knew that God was His salvation.

00:15:47.639 --> 00:15:52.319
 He also declared that God is His stronghold.

00:15:53.340 --> 00:15:56.539
 He also declared that God is His stronghold.

00:15:56.580 --> 00:15:57.639
 He's like fortress,

00:15:57.860 --> 00:15:59.519
 as a different version would say.

00:16:00.159 --> 00:16:00.919
 He wasn't alone.

00:16:01.080 --> 00:16:02.199
 God was with Him.

00:16:02.500 --> 00:16:04.360
 He was this impenetrable fortress

00:16:04.360 --> 00:16:07.460
 that no matter what the people around Him would do,

00:16:08.299 --> 00:16:10.539
 He would be able to keep Him safe.

00:16:11.259 --> 00:16:13.100
 I think this psalm talks about confidence

00:16:13.100 --> 00:16:15.360
 in a way that we can trust in God.

00:16:15.360 --> 00:16:18.180
 We can trust that God will protect us.

00:16:18.519 --> 00:16:20.820
 We can trust that whatever the situation may be,

00:16:21.360 --> 00:16:22.820
 God will be there to help us.

00:16:23.060 --> 00:16:24.800
 I know it's very easy to say it.

00:16:24.860 --> 00:16:26.560
 I know I can stand here as a preacher and say,

00:16:26.860 --> 00:16:28.379
 yeah, yeah, that's the easiest thing to say.

00:16:28.820 --> 00:16:31.720
 But I tell you, God can do it.

00:16:40.039 --> 00:16:42.200
 You could say, okay, we are not David.

00:16:42.279 --> 00:16:44.000
 David's been hunted down by his enemies.

00:16:44.000 --> 00:16:46.159
 We are not a king who is like running away.

00:16:46.399 --> 00:16:48.779
 So what can we learn from this song personally?

00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:50.720
 I want you to, for a moment,

00:16:50.899 --> 00:16:52.659
 to go for the verses 5,

00:16:53.059 --> 00:16:53.860
 this very instant.

00:16:55.259 --> 00:16:57.139
 And we're going to read just the first part,

00:16:57.200 --> 00:16:57.700
 where he says,

00:16:58.139 --> 00:16:59.620
 For in the day of trouble,

00:17:00.100 --> 00:17:02.080
 He will keep me safe in His dwelling.

00:17:04.460 --> 00:17:08.039
 What do you think David is referring

00:17:08.039 --> 00:17:09.500
 when he says this day of trouble?

00:17:09.500 --> 00:17:12.859
 What do you think is the day of trouble for him?

00:17:15.339 --> 00:17:17.160
 You would see in verses 2 and 3,

00:17:17.259 --> 00:17:20.500
 we can say that perhaps the day of trouble would be

00:17:20.500 --> 00:17:22.940
 evil men advancing against him,

00:17:23.339 --> 00:17:24.660
 enemies attacking him,

00:17:25.299 --> 00:17:26.599
 armies besieging him,

00:17:27.279 --> 00:17:29.000
 wars breaking out against him.

00:17:30.440 --> 00:17:31.779
 Perhaps that was his way,

00:17:32.000 --> 00:17:33.039
 or his day of trouble.

00:17:33.180 --> 00:17:35.359
 But I think it didn't end there.

00:17:35.700 --> 00:17:36.900
 Look down at verse 10 as well,

00:17:36.900 --> 00:17:37.660
 what he says.

00:17:38.840 --> 00:17:41.800
 Though my father and mother forsake me,

00:17:42.320 --> 00:17:44.400
 the Lord will receive me.

00:17:45.900 --> 00:17:47.680
 His day of trouble was not only

00:17:47.680 --> 00:17:49.140
 enemies besieging him,

00:17:49.640 --> 00:17:51.759
 but also I think it was that

00:17:51.759 --> 00:17:53.160
 friends and family

00:17:53.160 --> 00:17:54.600
 deserted him.

00:17:55.160 --> 00:17:56.720
 So basically, let's see what David is doing

00:17:56.720 --> 00:17:57.540
 throughout the song.

00:17:57.900 --> 00:17:59.480
 It's like he is expanding

00:17:59.480 --> 00:18:02.060
 the concept of day of trouble,

00:18:02.059 --> 00:18:06.039
 and apply it to any sort of suffering

00:18:06.039 --> 00:18:08.359
 that we could ever experience.

00:18:09.539 --> 00:18:09.779
 So,

00:18:11.059 --> 00:18:13.099
 whatever the day of trouble,

00:18:13.220 --> 00:18:14.879
 whatever your day of trouble could be,

00:18:15.839 --> 00:18:17.059
 someone attacking you,

00:18:17.159 --> 00:18:17.879
 or opposing you,

00:18:18.220 --> 00:18:19.440
 causing you sadness,

00:18:19.720 --> 00:18:20.039
 sickness,

00:18:20.359 --> 00:18:21.579
 or whatever it be,

00:18:22.220 --> 00:18:24.099
 we can all add to this song

00:18:24.099 --> 00:18:24.639
 and say,

00:18:25.059 --> 00:18:27.259
 even in those difficult times,

00:18:27.940 --> 00:18:29.200
 God is still good,

00:18:29.200 --> 00:18:31.259
 and God is still my fortress,

00:18:31.900 --> 00:18:33.600
 and God is still my salvation,

00:18:34.319 --> 00:18:36.180
 and God can still

00:18:36.180 --> 00:18:38.420
 keep me safe in the day of trouble.

00:18:38.920 --> 00:18:40.160
 I think it's a fascinating song.

00:18:43.740 --> 00:18:44.140
 But,

00:18:44.559 --> 00:18:45.019
 okay,

00:18:45.120 --> 00:18:45.779
 you're saying this,

00:18:45.880 --> 00:18:46.660
 but how do we,

00:18:46.900 --> 00:18:48.039
 generally the question is,

00:18:48.100 --> 00:18:49.100
 how do you really react

00:18:49.100 --> 00:18:49.900
 in the day of trouble?

00:18:51.000 --> 00:18:52.220
 One of the biggest temptations

00:18:52.220 --> 00:18:52.960
 we may face

00:18:52.960 --> 00:18:54.500
 when we are in these difficult

00:18:54.500 --> 00:18:55.819
 days of troubles

00:18:55.819 --> 00:18:57.579
 is to sing wrongly

00:18:57.579 --> 00:18:58.639
 about God.

00:18:59.559 --> 00:19:00.159
 Because why?

00:19:00.259 --> 00:19:01.779
 Because we come to God

00:19:01.779 --> 00:19:02.659
 in desperate need.

00:19:03.079 --> 00:19:03.399
 Trusting,

00:19:03.399 --> 00:19:03.599
 okay,

00:19:03.879 --> 00:19:05.059
 you're saying to trust in God,

00:19:05.159 --> 00:19:05.980
 we're going to trust in God,

00:19:06.019 --> 00:19:06.779
 I'm going to pray to Him,

00:19:07.019 --> 00:19:07.720
 I'm going to ask Him

00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:08.339
 to keep me free,

00:19:08.419 --> 00:19:09.579
 to set me free for this problem,

00:19:09.899 --> 00:19:10.759
 I'm going to ask Him

00:19:10.759 --> 00:19:11.980
 to do something for me,

00:19:12.139 --> 00:19:12.919
 but then we go,

00:19:13.000 --> 00:19:14.319
 we just go wait and see it.

00:19:14.879 --> 00:19:15.639
 And when you see it,

00:19:15.659 --> 00:19:17.119
 you realize God doesn't do anything.

00:19:18.240 --> 00:19:19.139
 And what do you think?

00:19:21.059 --> 00:19:22.200
 There's something wrong with this.

00:19:23.700 --> 00:19:25.659
 He may be not trustworthy,

00:19:25.819 --> 00:19:27.480
 because He's not doing

00:19:27.480 --> 00:19:28.619
 what I want Him to do.

00:19:32.079 --> 00:19:33.779
 And that's generally the danger

00:19:33.779 --> 00:19:34.919
 in these difficult situations

00:19:34.919 --> 00:19:35.740
 when it comes to trusting.

00:19:37.299 --> 00:19:38.779
 Because it's easy to trust

00:19:38.779 --> 00:19:39.519
 when we see God

00:19:39.519 --> 00:19:40.500
 doing what we want.

00:19:42.720 --> 00:19:44.240
 But what about when He doesn't?

00:19:49.899 --> 00:19:51.059
 What about when you're praying

00:19:51.059 --> 00:19:52.899
 for that cancer to go away?

00:19:52.900 --> 00:19:56.080
 What about when you're praying

00:19:56.080 --> 00:19:57.140
 for that family member

00:19:57.140 --> 00:19:57.920
 to come to faith?

00:20:02.600 --> 00:20:03.740
 What about when you're praying

00:20:03.740 --> 00:20:05.500
 for your partner not to leave you?

00:20:06.960 --> 00:20:08.120
 And he doesn't.

00:20:08.119 --> 00:20:19.279
 even in those difficult times,

00:20:20.799 --> 00:20:22.479
 David comes back to us and says,

00:20:23.159 --> 00:20:29.779
 I know that He will keep me safe.

00:20:32.579 --> 00:20:34.019
 Whatever safe may be.

00:20:34.019 --> 00:20:36.980
 This is a wonderful song

00:20:36.980 --> 00:20:37.460
 from David.

00:20:40.119 --> 00:20:41.379
 Because it opens up

00:20:41.379 --> 00:20:42.160
 the whole life.

00:20:42.940 --> 00:20:43.779
 Nobody promises

00:20:43.779 --> 00:20:44.460
 that a Christian life

00:20:44.460 --> 00:20:45.200
 is going to be great.

00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:46.559
 It's going to be fascinating.

00:20:46.700 --> 00:20:47.599
 It's going to pop up

00:20:47.599 --> 00:20:48.819
 once we want it.

00:20:49.359 --> 00:20:49.900
 Actually, no.

00:20:49.920 --> 00:20:50.559
 It's all the opposite.

00:20:51.339 --> 00:20:52.139
 It gets even harder

00:20:52.139 --> 00:20:52.980
 and harder and harder.

00:20:53.639 --> 00:20:54.000
 Why?

00:20:54.680 --> 00:20:55.859
 Because God has promised

00:20:55.859 --> 00:20:56.980
 something better at the end.

00:20:58.579 --> 00:21:00.079
 Something that is not accomplished

00:21:00.079 --> 00:21:00.779
 in this life,

00:21:01.000 --> 00:21:01.900
 but in the life to come.

00:21:01.900 --> 00:21:04.220
 We can't get foreshadows of that.

00:21:04.660 --> 00:21:07.019
 We can't get some wee pictures of it.

00:21:07.360 --> 00:21:08.519
 But that's not it at the end.

00:21:11.220 --> 00:21:12.680
 So you think sometimes

00:21:12.680 --> 00:21:13.300
 that God is good

00:21:13.300 --> 00:21:14.460
 because your bank account was great.

00:21:15.280 --> 00:21:16.519
 God's not good because of that.

00:21:17.500 --> 00:21:18.940
 If you think that God is good

00:21:18.940 --> 00:21:19.980
 because your life is great

00:21:19.980 --> 00:21:20.820
 and your family is doing well,

00:21:20.880 --> 00:21:21.740
 your children has got a job

00:21:21.740 --> 00:21:22.220
 and all that,

00:21:22.660 --> 00:21:23.759
 yeah, God is not good

00:21:23.759 --> 00:21:24.360
 because of that.

00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:28.080
 God is good because He is good.

00:21:29.900 --> 00:21:30.740
 Despite what you get

00:21:30.740 --> 00:21:31.380
 or what you don't.

00:21:32.620 --> 00:21:33.740
 And I think we can see

00:21:33.740 --> 00:21:34.380
 through this psalm

00:21:34.380 --> 00:21:35.500
 that it doesn't matter

00:21:35.500 --> 00:21:36.500
 what the situation is,

00:21:36.940 --> 00:21:38.019
 David still thinks

00:21:38.019 --> 00:21:39.180
 and still believes

00:21:39.180 --> 00:21:40.820
 and still proclaims

00:21:40.820 --> 00:21:42.160
 that God is good.

00:21:42.160 --> 00:21:52.220
 You see, brothers and sisters,

00:21:52.420 --> 00:21:55.620
 that one of the things

00:21:55.620 --> 00:21:57.680
 we can always keep in our minds

00:21:57.680 --> 00:21:58.080
 is that

00:21:58.080 --> 00:22:01.279
 our confidence

00:22:01.279 --> 00:22:04.519
 starts not

00:22:04.519 --> 00:22:06.279
 when we see

00:22:06.279 --> 00:22:07.800
 our deliverance,

00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:10.980
 but our confidence

00:22:10.980 --> 00:22:12.539
 starts

00:22:12.539 --> 00:22:14.200
 when we see

00:22:14.200 --> 00:22:14.799
 our deliverer.

00:22:18.519 --> 00:22:19.119
 Mighty,

00:22:20.659 --> 00:22:21.059
 sovereign,

00:22:22.059 --> 00:22:23.000
 powerful,

00:22:24.519 --> 00:22:25.579
 ruling for His throne,

00:22:26.960 --> 00:22:28.259
 lifted up high,

00:22:29.259 --> 00:22:30.599
 doing what He wants

00:22:30.599 --> 00:22:32.059
 when He wants

00:22:32.059 --> 00:22:34.000
 in the way He wants

00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:34.220
 it.

00:22:37.659 --> 00:22:38.639
 Perhaps I'll say it again.

00:22:39.619 --> 00:22:40.220
 Our confidence

00:22:40.220 --> 00:22:42.319
 doesn't start

00:22:42.319 --> 00:22:44.519
 when we see

00:22:44.519 --> 00:22:45.319
 our deliverance.

00:22:46.319 --> 00:22:47.179
 It starts

00:22:47.179 --> 00:22:48.519
 when we see

00:22:48.519 --> 00:22:49.279
 our deliverance

00:22:49.279 --> 00:22:50.460
 rightly

00:22:50.460 --> 00:22:52.119
 in power.

00:22:52.119 --> 00:22:53.319
 and I think

00:22:53.319 --> 00:22:53.959
 that's one of the

00:22:53.959 --> 00:22:54.319
 good things

00:22:54.319 --> 00:22:54.799
 that this psalm

00:22:54.799 --> 00:22:55.500
 does for us.

00:22:56.539 --> 00:22:57.739
 God is all those things

00:22:57.739 --> 00:22:58.779
 from 1 to 3

00:22:58.779 --> 00:22:59.739
 that David is saying.

00:23:00.259 --> 00:23:01.139
 He is light,

00:23:01.579 --> 00:23:02.459
 He is salvation,

00:23:02.939 --> 00:23:04.059
 He is stronghold.

00:23:04.940 --> 00:23:05.619
 But David

00:23:05.619 --> 00:23:06.659
 doesn't say

00:23:06.659 --> 00:23:07.220
 that the Lord

00:23:07.220 --> 00:23:07.819
 is light.

00:23:08.519 --> 00:23:09.119
 He doesn't say

00:23:09.119 --> 00:23:09.599
 that the Lord

00:23:09.599 --> 00:23:10.240
 is salvation,

00:23:10.379 --> 00:23:11.319
 salvation is strange

00:23:11.319 --> 00:23:11.899
 and far away

00:23:11.899 --> 00:23:12.440
 from Him.

00:23:13.000 --> 00:23:13.399
 Rather,

00:23:13.579 --> 00:23:14.279
 he says

00:23:14.279 --> 00:23:15.119
 that the Lord

00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:16.119
 is His life.

00:23:16.480 --> 00:23:16.960
 David says

00:23:16.960 --> 00:23:17.519
 the Lord

00:23:17.519 --> 00:23:18.460
 is my life,

00:23:18.779 --> 00:23:19.159
 the Lord

00:23:19.159 --> 00:23:20.240
 is my salvation.

00:23:20.819 --> 00:23:21.440
 He implies

00:23:21.440 --> 00:23:22.519
 a sense of belonging.

00:23:23.619 --> 00:23:24.480
 What can we say

00:23:24.480 --> 00:23:25.059
 about that?

00:23:26.079 --> 00:23:26.539
 How do we

00:23:26.539 --> 00:23:27.319
 consider God?

00:23:27.779 --> 00:23:28.119
 Is God

00:23:28.119 --> 00:23:28.960
 your life?

00:23:29.819 --> 00:23:30.279
 We all know

00:23:30.279 --> 00:23:30.960
 God is life.

00:23:32.019 --> 00:23:32.419
 Is God

00:23:32.419 --> 00:23:33.099
 your salvation?

00:23:33.220 --> 00:23:33.599
 We all know

00:23:33.599 --> 00:23:34.179
 God's salvation

00:23:34.179 --> 00:23:34.839
 but is God

00:23:34.839 --> 00:23:35.519
 you?

00:23:37.099 --> 00:23:37.879
 Do you have

00:23:37.879 --> 00:23:38.899
 this sense of belonging

00:23:38.899 --> 00:23:40.480
 that David has?

00:23:44.459 --> 00:23:45.139
 Is God

00:23:45.139 --> 00:23:45.659
 your life?

00:23:46.000 --> 00:23:46.339
 Is God

00:23:46.339 --> 00:23:46.939
 your salvation?

00:23:48.199 --> 00:23:48.699
 If the answer

00:23:48.699 --> 00:23:49.279
 is yes,

00:23:49.439 --> 00:23:49.740
 then

00:23:49.740 --> 00:23:52.879
 who shall we fear?

00:23:54.159 --> 00:23:54.980
 As David said.

00:23:56.219 --> 00:23:57.279
 But who shall I fear?

00:23:58.139 --> 00:23:58.740
 Am I going to be

00:23:58.740 --> 00:23:59.299
 scared of this?

00:23:59.699 --> 00:24:00.099
 David said,

00:24:00.199 --> 00:24:00.339
 no,

00:24:00.559 --> 00:24:00.980
 I won't.

00:24:01.339 --> 00:24:02.219
 So what he chooses

00:24:02.219 --> 00:24:03.199
 to do,

00:24:03.200 --> 00:24:03.980
 David first?

00:24:04.180 --> 00:24:05.180
 He chooses to

00:24:05.180 --> 00:24:06.100
 remember who God

00:24:06.100 --> 00:24:06.380
 is.

00:24:06.640 --> 00:24:07.240
 Who God is?

00:24:07.279 --> 00:24:07.960
 He is his light,

00:24:08.039 --> 00:24:08.720
 he is his salvation,

00:24:08.840 --> 00:24:09.600
 he is his stronghold,

00:24:09.840 --> 00:24:10.819
 he is the deliverer,

00:24:10.940 --> 00:24:11.340
 mighty,

00:24:11.799 --> 00:24:13.100
 he is the God

00:24:13.100 --> 00:24:14.180
 maker of the universe,

00:24:14.660 --> 00:24:15.580
 he is God

00:24:15.580 --> 00:24:16.160
 sovereign,

00:24:16.319 --> 00:24:17.180
 doing what he wants,

00:24:17.259 --> 00:24:18.120
 when he wants,

00:24:18.539 --> 00:24:19.480
 in the time he wants it.

00:24:21.319 --> 00:24:21.940
 Once David

00:24:21.940 --> 00:24:22.480
 sees that,

00:24:22.559 --> 00:24:23.200
 he can go on

00:24:23.200 --> 00:24:23.860
 to the next bit,

00:24:24.220 --> 00:24:24.720
 which is,

00:24:25.039 --> 00:24:25.960
 not only he's seeing

00:24:25.960 --> 00:24:26.519
 who God is,

00:24:26.559 --> 00:24:27.000
 he's remembering

00:24:27.000 --> 00:24:27.519
 who God is,

00:24:27.519 --> 00:24:28.639
 but now he decides

00:24:28.639 --> 00:24:30.079
 to delight

00:24:30.079 --> 00:24:30.960
 in the beauty

00:24:30.960 --> 00:24:31.500
 of God.

00:24:31.960 --> 00:24:32.720
 Verses 4-6,

00:24:32.779 --> 00:24:33.379
 this is what he says,

00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:35.139
 one thing

00:24:35.139 --> 00:24:36.400
 I ask from the Lord,

00:24:37.139 --> 00:24:37.720
 this only

00:24:37.720 --> 00:24:38.819
 do I seek,

00:24:39.180 --> 00:24:39.960
 that I may dwell

00:24:39.960 --> 00:24:40.440
 in the house

00:24:40.440 --> 00:24:40.960
 of the Lord

00:24:40.960 --> 00:24:41.619
 all the days

00:24:41.619 --> 00:24:42.200
 of my life,

00:24:42.500 --> 00:24:43.539
 to gaze on the beauty

00:24:43.539 --> 00:24:44.139
 of the Lord,

00:24:44.519 --> 00:24:45.440
 and to seek Him

00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:46.240
 in His temple,

00:24:46.740 --> 00:24:47.579
 for in His day,

00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:48.740
 for in the day

00:24:48.740 --> 00:24:49.160
 of trouble,

00:24:49.240 --> 00:24:50.200
 He will keep me safe

00:24:50.200 --> 00:24:51.299
 in His dwelling,

00:24:51.539 --> 00:24:52.379
 He will hide me

00:24:52.379 --> 00:24:52.859
 in the shelter

00:24:52.859 --> 00:24:53.940
 of His second tent,

00:24:53.940 --> 00:24:55.620
 and set me high

00:24:55.620 --> 00:24:56.779
 upon the rock.

00:24:58.299 --> 00:24:58.940
 Then my head

00:24:58.940 --> 00:24:59.680
 will be exalted

00:24:59.680 --> 00:25:00.480
 about my enemies

00:25:00.480 --> 00:25:01.460
 who surround me.

00:25:02.220 --> 00:25:02.340
 So,

00:25:06.340 --> 00:25:08.420
 at His second tent,

00:25:08.539 --> 00:25:09.340
 I will sacrifice

00:25:09.340 --> 00:25:10.960
 with shouts of joy.

00:25:11.420 --> 00:25:12.539
 Here we see David

00:25:12.539 --> 00:25:14.140
 delighting

00:25:14.140 --> 00:25:14.860
 on the beauty

00:25:14.860 --> 00:25:15.779
 of God.

00:25:16.240 --> 00:25:17.279
 To not lose heart,

00:25:17.279 --> 00:25:18.299
 to not give in

00:25:18.299 --> 00:25:19.019
 into temptation

00:25:19.019 --> 00:25:19.720
 while we wait

00:25:19.720 --> 00:25:20.180
 on God,

00:25:20.480 --> 00:25:21.880
 we must delight

00:25:21.880 --> 00:25:22.620
 ourselves

00:25:22.619 --> 00:25:23.799
 in the beauty

00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:24.959
 of God.

00:25:25.159 --> 00:25:25.919
 But the question is,

00:25:26.019 --> 00:25:26.879
 what is the beauty

00:25:26.879 --> 00:25:27.299
 of God

00:25:27.299 --> 00:25:27.919
 that He's talking

00:25:27.919 --> 00:25:28.479
 about here?

00:25:28.979 --> 00:25:29.939
 I think

00:25:29.939 --> 00:25:31.099
 the beauty of God

00:25:31.099 --> 00:25:31.979
 is the truth

00:25:31.979 --> 00:25:32.659
 of God.

00:25:33.619 --> 00:25:34.719
 He's a perfection

00:25:34.719 --> 00:25:35.239
 of God

00:25:35.239 --> 00:25:36.879
 in all His attributes,

00:25:38.259 --> 00:25:39.139
 His wisdom,

00:25:39.819 --> 00:25:40.599
 His power,

00:25:41.679 --> 00:25:42.279
 His love,

00:25:42.379 --> 00:25:43.239
 His justice,

00:25:44.159 --> 00:25:45.179
 and so many

00:25:45.179 --> 00:25:45.699
 more things

00:25:45.699 --> 00:25:46.139
 that we can

00:25:46.139 --> 00:25:47.439
 not name just now.

00:25:49.500 --> 00:25:50.319
 But you're saying,

00:25:50.500 --> 00:25:50.559
 like,

00:25:50.659 --> 00:25:51.299
 what is the difference

00:25:51.299 --> 00:25:51.799
 between

00:25:51.799 --> 00:25:52.839
 remembering

00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:53.519
 who God is

00:25:53.519 --> 00:25:54.220
 and delighting

00:25:54.220 --> 00:25:54.559
 in the beauty

00:25:54.559 --> 00:25:54.799
 of God?

00:25:54.859 --> 00:25:55.440
 What is the difference

00:25:55.440 --> 00:25:56.779
 between 4 to 6

00:25:56.779 --> 00:25:59.019
 compared to 1 to 3?

00:25:59.879 --> 00:26:00.319
 Well,

00:26:00.460 --> 00:26:01.419
 I think it's one thing

00:26:01.419 --> 00:26:02.039
 to remember

00:26:02.039 --> 00:26:03.359
 who God is.

00:26:03.700 --> 00:26:04.579
 I think it's one thing

00:26:04.579 --> 00:26:05.039
 to remember

00:26:05.039 --> 00:26:06.220
 the truth about God

00:26:06.220 --> 00:26:07.500
 and to be aware

00:26:07.500 --> 00:26:08.480
 of who God is.

00:26:08.819 --> 00:26:09.859
 But it's quite

00:26:09.859 --> 00:26:11.519
 another different thing

00:26:11.519 --> 00:26:14.539
 to delight

00:26:14.539 --> 00:26:15.899
 in that beauty

00:26:15.899 --> 00:26:16.720
 of who God is.

00:26:17.279 --> 00:26:17.819
 The word beauty

00:26:17.819 --> 00:26:18.599
 of verses 4

00:26:18.599 --> 00:26:20.180
 means delightful

00:26:20.180 --> 00:26:21.460
 or to be delightful

00:26:21.460 --> 00:26:22.740
 means to bring

00:26:22.740 --> 00:26:23.120
 pleasure,

00:26:23.320 --> 00:26:24.180
 something that brings

00:26:24.180 --> 00:26:25.840
 pleasure and satisfaction

00:26:25.840 --> 00:26:26.799
 to our lives.

00:26:28.160 --> 00:26:28.700
 So,

00:26:28.840 --> 00:26:29.660
 to be a Christian,

00:26:30.580 --> 00:26:31.279
 in other words,

00:26:31.640 --> 00:26:32.360
 it's more than

00:26:32.360 --> 00:26:33.539
 simply knowing

00:26:33.539 --> 00:26:34.940
 thoughts about God.

00:26:37.440 --> 00:26:38.660
 It's more than

00:26:38.660 --> 00:26:39.440
 just knowing

00:26:39.440 --> 00:26:40.680
 what the Bible says.

00:26:41.640 --> 00:26:42.620
 But to be a Christian,

00:26:42.759 --> 00:26:43.500
 it means

00:26:43.500 --> 00:26:44.880
 to taste

00:26:44.880 --> 00:26:46.000
 and see

00:26:46.000 --> 00:26:47.800
 that God is good.

00:26:48.680 --> 00:26:49.460
 And not only

00:26:49.460 --> 00:26:50.600
 to see that God is good,

00:26:50.660 --> 00:26:51.540
 but to choose

00:26:51.540 --> 00:26:52.660
 to delight

00:26:52.660 --> 00:26:53.320
 in His goodness,

00:26:53.980 --> 00:26:54.880
 to delight

00:26:54.880 --> 00:26:55.560
 in all the things

00:26:55.560 --> 00:26:56.260
 that He is.

00:26:58.860 --> 00:26:59.360
 So,

00:26:59.560 --> 00:27:00.300
 it is possible

00:27:00.300 --> 00:27:01.140
 to find pleasure

00:27:01.140 --> 00:27:01.620
 in God.

00:27:02.280 --> 00:27:02.800
 Pure,

00:27:03.040 --> 00:27:03.880
 exhilarating

00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:04.540
 pleasure

00:27:04.540 --> 00:27:06.100
 and joy.

00:27:06.580 --> 00:27:07.700
 When we do that,

00:27:07.980 --> 00:27:08.560
 when a believer

00:27:08.560 --> 00:27:09.300
 does that,

00:27:09.480 --> 00:27:10.760
 he finds himself.

00:27:12.280 --> 00:27:12.980
 He does not

00:27:12.980 --> 00:27:13.940
 escape from reality,

00:27:13.940 --> 00:27:14.559
 but actually

00:27:14.559 --> 00:27:15.840
 He conquers it

00:27:15.840 --> 00:27:17.100
 by discovering

00:27:17.100 --> 00:27:18.539
 a deeper

00:27:18.539 --> 00:27:20.059
 and greater reality

00:27:20.059 --> 00:27:20.720
 in which

00:27:20.720 --> 00:27:22.140
 and by which

00:27:22.140 --> 00:27:25.220
 He is able

00:27:25.220 --> 00:27:26.279
 to cope with life

00:27:26.279 --> 00:27:28.200
 and all its pressures.

00:27:28.920 --> 00:27:29.759
 He finds,

00:27:29.900 --> 00:27:30.279
 in fact,

00:27:30.400 --> 00:27:31.039
 something

00:27:31.039 --> 00:27:32.700
 larger than life.

00:27:33.799 --> 00:27:34.799
 And those effects

00:27:34.799 --> 00:27:35.779
 do not wear off.

00:27:36.100 --> 00:27:36.840
 Because what?

00:27:37.059 --> 00:27:38.100
 Because He finds

00:27:38.100 --> 00:27:38.620
 Himself

00:27:38.620 --> 00:27:39.380
 that God

00:27:39.380 --> 00:27:40.160
 is powerful

00:27:40.160 --> 00:27:41.279
 and majestic.

00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:44.000
 He chooses

00:27:44.000 --> 00:27:44.879
 to delight

00:27:44.879 --> 00:27:45.319
 in Him.

00:27:50.680 --> 00:27:51.899
 But what is,

00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:52.980
 if He chooses

00:27:52.980 --> 00:27:53.539
 to delight

00:27:53.539 --> 00:27:53.960
 in Him,

00:27:55.139 --> 00:27:56.720
 what is

00:27:56.720 --> 00:27:57.799
 delighting in Him

00:27:57.799 --> 00:27:58.480
 has to do

00:27:58.480 --> 00:27:59.139
 with confidence?

00:28:00.740 --> 00:28:01.399
 Why is it

00:28:01.399 --> 00:28:02.279
 important?

00:28:02.379 --> 00:28:02.500
 Okay,

00:28:02.619 --> 00:28:02.839
 yeah,

00:28:02.899 --> 00:28:03.379
 you're saying,

00:28:03.639 --> 00:28:03.759
 yeah,

00:28:03.819 --> 00:28:04.639
 we have to delight

00:28:04.639 --> 00:28:04.940
 in Him.

00:28:05.019 --> 00:28:05.200
 Why?

00:28:05.359 --> 00:28:06.220
 Why is it important

00:28:06.220 --> 00:28:06.980
 to delight in Him?

00:28:06.980 --> 00:28:07.460
 Well,

00:28:07.539 --> 00:28:08.140
 let's check again

00:28:08.140 --> 00:28:08.740
 verse 5.

00:28:10.559 --> 00:28:10.799
 Well,

00:28:10.940 --> 00:28:12.120
 verse 4 says that

00:28:12.120 --> 00:28:13.039
 why does He want

00:28:13.039 --> 00:28:13.620
 to delight in Him?

00:28:13.680 --> 00:28:14.420
 He wants to gauge

00:28:14.420 --> 00:28:15.160
 the beauty of God.

00:28:15.440 --> 00:28:16.480
 And then verse 5 says,

00:28:16.640 --> 00:28:16.900
 why?

00:28:17.339 --> 00:28:18.279
 Because He says

00:28:18.279 --> 00:28:19.640
 He wants to be safe

00:28:19.640 --> 00:28:21.079
 in the day of trouble.

00:28:21.440 --> 00:28:22.660
 He is delighting

00:28:22.660 --> 00:28:23.660
 in the beauty of God

00:28:23.660 --> 00:28:25.900
 even in the day of trouble.

00:28:26.299 --> 00:28:27.380
 Even where situations

00:28:27.380 --> 00:28:27.860
 arises

00:28:27.860 --> 00:28:29.799
 and situations get tough,

00:28:30.360 --> 00:28:30.860
 He chooses

00:28:30.860 --> 00:28:31.839
 to delight in Him.

00:28:33.279 --> 00:28:33.920
 And those times

00:28:33.920 --> 00:28:34.400
 when we feel

00:28:34.400 --> 00:28:35.200
 we don't belong,

00:28:35.200 --> 00:28:36.140
 those times

00:28:36.140 --> 00:28:36.620
 when we feel

00:28:36.620 --> 00:28:37.460
 like the situation

00:28:37.460 --> 00:28:38.319
 is out of control,

00:28:38.799 --> 00:28:39.340
 those times

00:28:39.340 --> 00:28:40.080
 when we feel

00:28:40.080 --> 00:28:41.960
 like seriously bad,

00:28:42.559 --> 00:28:43.080
 those times

00:28:43.080 --> 00:28:43.880
 when we are like

00:28:43.880 --> 00:28:44.380
 hopeless,

00:28:45.740 --> 00:28:46.519
 David chose

00:28:46.519 --> 00:28:47.620
 to delight in God

00:28:47.620 --> 00:28:49.180
 and so we must.

00:28:52.840 --> 00:28:53.779
 You will tell me,

00:28:53.860 --> 00:28:53.980
 yeah,

00:28:54.019 --> 00:28:54.720
 it's easy to say

00:28:54.720 --> 00:28:55.420
 from a pulpit,

00:28:56.059 --> 00:28:57.279
 put it into practice,

00:28:57.400 --> 00:28:58.299
 let's see what you get.

00:29:02.980 --> 00:29:04.140
 We just got to do it.

00:29:05.200 --> 00:29:09.140
 David himself

00:29:09.140 --> 00:29:10.019
 wasn't a perfect person

00:29:10.019 --> 00:29:10.420
 at all.

00:29:12.059 --> 00:29:12.880
 His life was always

00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:13.319
 in trouble.

00:29:13.700 --> 00:29:14.940
 He was always running away,

00:29:15.000 --> 00:29:15.860
 being hunted down.

00:29:16.860 --> 00:29:17.660
 Always doing

00:29:17.660 --> 00:29:19.000
 good things,

00:29:19.400 --> 00:29:20.380
 always doing bad things.

00:29:21.220 --> 00:29:22.180
 But yet still,

00:29:22.900 --> 00:29:23.319
 he knew

00:29:23.319 --> 00:29:25.279
 who his maker was.

00:29:25.940 --> 00:29:26.660
 And he still

00:29:26.660 --> 00:29:27.700
 decided to delight in Him.

00:29:30.559 --> 00:29:31.360
 And we see

00:29:31.360 --> 00:29:32.000
 in verse 6

00:29:32.000 --> 00:29:32.680
 where this

00:29:32.680 --> 00:29:35.779
 word is

00:29:35.779 --> 00:29:36.500
 all delight

00:29:36.500 --> 00:29:37.000
 and taken.

00:29:37.960 --> 00:29:39.100
 Verse 6 says that

00:29:39.100 --> 00:29:40.519
 then my head

00:29:40.519 --> 00:29:41.420
 would be exulting

00:29:41.420 --> 00:29:42.140
 about the enemies

00:29:42.140 --> 00:29:42.980
 who surround me

00:29:42.980 --> 00:29:44.400
 at his secret tent.

00:29:45.360 --> 00:29:46.680
 And I will sing.

00:29:47.640 --> 00:29:48.560
 I will sacrifice

00:29:48.560 --> 00:29:49.920
 with shout of joys

00:29:49.920 --> 00:29:50.500
 and I will sing

00:29:50.500 --> 00:29:51.180
 and make music

00:29:51.180 --> 00:29:51.759
 to the Lord.

00:29:53.039 --> 00:29:54.060
 He is able

00:29:54.060 --> 00:29:55.100
 to walk around

00:29:55.100 --> 00:29:57.039
 with his head

00:29:57.039 --> 00:29:57.980
 held high,

00:29:58.880 --> 00:29:59.680
 singing songs

00:29:59.680 --> 00:30:00.160
 to the Lord.

00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:01.420
 He has joy

00:30:01.420 --> 00:30:02.080
 and this joy

00:30:02.080 --> 00:30:02.640
 is rooted

00:30:02.640 --> 00:30:03.980
 in the satisfying

00:30:03.980 --> 00:30:04.799
 beauty

00:30:04.799 --> 00:30:05.880
 of God

00:30:05.880 --> 00:30:07.320
 that will never change.

00:30:12.180 --> 00:30:13.019
 Before we move

00:30:13.019 --> 00:30:13.720
 to the next one,

00:30:13.799 --> 00:30:14.259
 one of the things

00:30:14.259 --> 00:30:14.860
 I really like

00:30:14.860 --> 00:30:16.080
 about this part

00:30:16.080 --> 00:30:16.640
 is that

00:30:16.640 --> 00:30:17.480
 in verse 4

00:30:17.480 --> 00:30:18.920
 he asks

00:30:18.920 --> 00:30:19.799
 one thing

00:30:19.799 --> 00:30:20.600
 I ask

00:30:20.600 --> 00:30:21.240
 from the Lord.

00:30:21.620 --> 00:30:22.620
 The only one

00:30:22.619 --> 00:30:23.939
 the only one

00:30:23.939 --> 00:30:24.859
 I do seek

00:30:24.859 --> 00:30:27.099
 is just one thing

00:30:27.099 --> 00:30:27.519
 he is seeking

00:30:27.519 --> 00:30:28.059
 one thing

00:30:28.059 --> 00:30:28.719
 he is asking.

00:30:29.099 --> 00:30:29.919
 He is not asking

00:30:29.919 --> 00:30:30.579
 to be famous.

00:30:31.099 --> 00:30:32.059
 He is not asking

00:30:32.059 --> 00:30:32.899
 to be successful.

00:30:33.399 --> 00:30:34.179
 He is not asking

00:30:34.179 --> 00:30:34.839
 to be rich

00:30:34.839 --> 00:30:35.559
 or blessed.

00:30:36.379 --> 00:30:37.439
 But what he asks

00:30:37.439 --> 00:30:38.399
 is to dwell

00:30:38.399 --> 00:30:39.299
 in the house

00:30:39.299 --> 00:30:40.000
 of the Lord

00:30:40.000 --> 00:30:41.619
 to gain the beauty

00:30:41.619 --> 00:30:42.399
 of the Lord.

00:30:43.699 --> 00:30:44.339
 Because why?

00:30:44.699 --> 00:30:45.619
 Because his joy

00:30:45.619 --> 00:30:46.379
 was in God.

00:30:47.219 --> 00:30:48.000
 And because his joy

00:30:48.000 --> 00:30:48.579
 was in God

00:30:48.579 --> 00:30:49.019
 his enemies

00:30:49.019 --> 00:30:50.559
 couldn't touch him.

00:30:51.559 --> 00:30:52.039
 Failure

00:30:52.039 --> 00:30:53.079
 couldn't touch him.

00:30:54.200 --> 00:30:54.619
 God

00:30:54.619 --> 00:30:55.759
 kept and said

00:30:55.759 --> 00:30:59.599
 it is important

00:30:59.599 --> 00:31:00.480
 to keep in check

00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:01.680
 what we do desire.

00:31:02.420 --> 00:31:03.420
 In the case of David

00:31:03.420 --> 00:31:04.359
 he was deciding

00:31:04.359 --> 00:31:05.319
 to dwell with the Lord.

00:31:07.019 --> 00:31:07.639
 I wonder

00:31:07.639 --> 00:31:08.799
 what we really desire

00:31:08.799 --> 00:31:09.420
 in our hearts.

00:31:10.440 --> 00:31:10.779
 Generally

00:31:10.779 --> 00:31:11.920
 what we desire

00:31:11.920 --> 00:31:12.759
 in our hearts

00:31:12.759 --> 00:31:14.639
 reveals

00:31:14.639 --> 00:31:16.139
 where our confidence is.

00:31:17.779 --> 00:31:18.099
 Have you ever

00:31:18.099 --> 00:31:18.559
 heard a person

00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:19.079
 saying like

00:31:19.079 --> 00:31:20.659
 if I only get this

00:31:20.659 --> 00:31:21.359
 I will

00:31:21.359 --> 00:31:23.439
 finally be happy.

00:31:23.639 --> 00:31:24.259
 Oh I only

00:31:24.259 --> 00:31:25.139
 make millions.

00:31:25.279 --> 00:31:26.019
 Ah finally

00:31:26.019 --> 00:31:26.500
 I will just

00:31:26.500 --> 00:31:27.879
 rest and enjoy this.

00:31:28.000 --> 00:31:29.019
 Oh if I only

00:31:29.019 --> 00:31:29.819
 get married

00:31:29.819 --> 00:31:30.339
 I will

00:31:30.339 --> 00:31:31.439
 do this.

00:31:31.519 --> 00:31:31.839
 Have you ever

00:31:31.839 --> 00:31:32.199
 heard that?

00:31:32.339 --> 00:31:32.799
 I am just

00:31:32.799 --> 00:31:33.979
 filling the blanks.

00:31:34.159 --> 00:31:34.799
 But you know this

00:31:34.799 --> 00:31:35.399
 have you ever

00:31:35.399 --> 00:31:35.719
 heard this

00:31:35.719 --> 00:31:36.519
 if I only

00:31:36.519 --> 00:31:39.719
 so many times

00:31:39.719 --> 00:31:40.500
 what we seek

00:31:40.500 --> 00:31:41.959
 reveals

00:31:41.959 --> 00:31:43.519
 where our confidence is.

00:31:44.359 --> 00:31:45.039
 For David

00:31:45.039 --> 00:31:45.579
 he is not

00:31:45.579 --> 00:31:46.659
 seeking all these things.

00:31:47.479 --> 00:31:47.959
 The only thing

00:31:47.959 --> 00:31:48.579
 David is seeking

00:31:48.579 --> 00:31:49.079
 in verse 4

00:31:49.079 --> 00:31:49.319
 is like

00:31:49.319 --> 00:31:49.939
 I want to

00:31:49.939 --> 00:31:50.500
 dwell with the Lord.

00:31:51.059 --> 00:31:51.480
 Why?

00:31:51.579 --> 00:31:52.059
 Because I want

00:31:52.059 --> 00:31:52.879
 to rejoice

00:31:52.879 --> 00:31:53.559
 I want to delight

00:31:53.559 --> 00:31:54.679
 myself into this beauty.

00:31:55.259 --> 00:31:56.059
 And that's what I want.

00:32:02.419 --> 00:32:03.740
 He wanted one thing

00:32:03.740 --> 00:32:04.759
 to delight in the beauty

00:32:04.759 --> 00:32:05.299
 of God

00:32:05.299 --> 00:32:06.839
 and compared to

00:32:06.839 --> 00:32:07.899
 the beauty of God

00:32:07.899 --> 00:32:09.899
 everything else

00:32:09.899 --> 00:32:11.759
 is like

00:32:11.759 --> 00:32:12.460
 it's like

00:32:12.460 --> 00:32:13.319
 rubbish for him.

00:32:14.859 --> 00:32:15.659
 Just for a moment

00:32:15.659 --> 00:32:16.439
 think about it.

00:32:16.440 --> 00:32:17.740
 Think what your

00:32:17.740 --> 00:32:19.660
 desires are.

00:32:20.779 --> 00:32:21.539
 Are your desires

00:32:21.539 --> 00:32:22.539
 rooted in

00:32:22.539 --> 00:32:23.059
 satisfaction

00:32:23.059 --> 00:32:24.180
 to be with God?

00:32:25.259 --> 00:32:25.799
 Or are you just

00:32:25.799 --> 00:32:26.480
 rooted in your own

00:32:26.480 --> 00:32:27.160
 personal comfort?

00:32:29.279 --> 00:32:30.299
 Do not take me wrong

00:32:30.299 --> 00:32:30.720
 I'm not saying

00:32:30.720 --> 00:32:31.360
 personal comfort

00:32:31.360 --> 00:32:31.960
 is bad.

00:32:32.860 --> 00:32:33.600
 But what I'm saying

00:32:33.600 --> 00:32:34.000
 is like

00:32:34.000 --> 00:32:35.080
 when we replace

00:32:35.080 --> 00:32:36.840
 all personal comfort

00:32:36.840 --> 00:32:38.920
 as the goal

00:32:38.920 --> 00:32:39.759
 for satisfaction

00:32:39.759 --> 00:32:40.980
 rather than

00:32:40.980 --> 00:32:42.420
 me for satisfaction

00:32:42.420 --> 00:32:43.460
 and rejoicing

00:32:43.460 --> 00:32:44.039
 in God

00:32:44.039 --> 00:32:45.240
 that becomes

00:32:45.240 --> 00:32:45.640
 a problem.

00:32:46.440 --> 00:32:49.240
 But David

00:32:49.240 --> 00:32:50.279
 come back to David

00:32:50.279 --> 00:32:51.360
 doesn't only

00:32:51.360 --> 00:32:52.559
 resolve himself

00:32:52.559 --> 00:32:53.200
 to remember

00:32:53.200 --> 00:32:53.799
 who God is

00:32:53.799 --> 00:32:54.980
 he doesn't only

00:32:54.980 --> 00:32:55.880
 desire to

00:32:55.880 --> 00:32:56.880
 delight in God

00:32:56.880 --> 00:32:58.220
 he does also

00:32:58.220 --> 00:32:59.000
 resolve

00:32:59.000 --> 00:33:00.360
 verses 7 to 12

00:33:00.360 --> 00:33:02.140
 to walk in God

00:33:02.140 --> 00:33:03.059
 in God's way.

00:33:04.519 --> 00:33:05.120
 So if we do

00:33:05.120 --> 00:33:06.559
 want to

00:33:06.559 --> 00:33:07.380
 wait with confidence

00:33:07.380 --> 00:33:08.160
 and hope in God

00:33:08.160 --> 00:33:09.059
 we should

00:33:09.059 --> 00:33:10.279
 resolve to walk

00:33:10.279 --> 00:33:11.580
 in God's way.

00:33:12.620 --> 00:33:13.400
 David trusts

00:33:13.400 --> 00:33:14.100
 that the Lord

00:33:14.100 --> 00:33:14.740
 will be merciful

00:33:14.740 --> 00:33:15.000
 for it.

00:33:15.539 --> 00:33:17.339
 One of the

00:33:17.339 --> 00:33:18.160
 repeated ideas

00:33:18.160 --> 00:33:18.759
 of this section

00:33:18.759 --> 00:33:19.660
 from 7 to 12

00:33:19.660 --> 00:33:20.880
 is a constantly

00:33:20.880 --> 00:33:21.700
 mention of

00:33:21.700 --> 00:33:22.559
 he is deciding

00:33:22.559 --> 00:33:23.579
 to seek in God's

00:33:23.579 --> 00:33:23.859
 faith.

00:33:25.539 --> 00:33:25.940
 Basically

00:33:25.940 --> 00:33:28.680
 this is a

00:33:28.680 --> 00:33:29.440
 repeated idea

00:33:29.440 --> 00:33:30.240
 from verses 4

00:33:30.240 --> 00:33:31.339
 and verse 4

00:33:31.339 --> 00:33:31.859
 he mentioned

00:33:31.859 --> 00:33:32.440
 he wants

00:33:32.440 --> 00:33:35.120
 to seek the Lord

00:33:35.120 --> 00:33:35.799
 he wants to

00:33:35.799 --> 00:33:36.759
 dwell with the Lord

00:33:36.759 --> 00:33:37.660
 in verses 8

00:33:37.660 --> 00:33:38.200
 he says

00:33:38.200 --> 00:33:39.539
 I want to

00:33:39.539 --> 00:33:39.980
 seek you

00:33:39.980 --> 00:33:40.240
 Lord

00:33:40.240 --> 00:33:43.539
 I want to

00:33:43.539 --> 00:33:43.879
 seek your

00:33:43.879 --> 00:33:44.279
 presence

00:33:44.279 --> 00:33:44.960
 I want to

00:33:44.960 --> 00:33:45.339
 be in your

00:33:45.339 --> 00:33:45.759
 presence

00:33:45.759 --> 00:33:47.819
 so he trusts

00:33:47.819 --> 00:33:48.779
 that the

00:33:48.779 --> 00:33:49.220
 voice that

00:33:49.220 --> 00:33:49.819
 shouts and

00:33:49.819 --> 00:33:51.480
 sings in him

00:33:51.480 --> 00:33:53.019
 sings to him

00:33:53.019 --> 00:33:53.680
 and worships

00:33:53.680 --> 00:33:54.220
 in verse 6

00:33:54.220 --> 00:33:56.000
 can also be

00:33:56.000 --> 00:33:56.700
 confident that

00:33:56.700 --> 00:33:56.940
 the Lord

00:33:56.940 --> 00:33:57.740
 will hear him

00:33:57.740 --> 00:33:59.019
 when he

00:33:59.019 --> 00:33:59.460
 prays

00:33:59.460 --> 00:34:01.240
 in verse 7

00:34:01.240 --> 00:34:02.799
 praying is

00:34:02.799 --> 00:34:03.759
 one aspect

00:34:03.759 --> 00:34:05.380
 of seeking

00:34:05.380 --> 00:34:05.960
 the Lord

00:34:05.960 --> 00:34:07.839
 what David

00:34:07.839 --> 00:34:08.219
 is done

00:34:08.219 --> 00:34:09.000
 in verse 4

00:34:09.000 --> 00:34:10.099
 seeking him

00:34:10.099 --> 00:34:10.800
 in his temple

00:34:10.800 --> 00:34:12.199
 he is also

00:34:12.199 --> 00:34:13.159
 instructed to

00:34:13.159 --> 00:34:13.480
 do

00:34:13.480 --> 00:34:14.820
 in verse 8

00:34:14.820 --> 00:34:18.380
 okay we are

00:34:18.380 --> 00:34:18.780
 seeing all

00:34:18.780 --> 00:34:19.059
 of this

00:34:19.059 --> 00:34:19.559
 this is what

00:34:19.559 --> 00:34:19.840
 David is

00:34:19.840 --> 00:34:20.100
 doing

00:34:20.100 --> 00:34:20.820
 I know

00:34:20.820 --> 00:34:21.200
 you are

00:34:21.200 --> 00:34:21.500
 following my

00:34:21.500 --> 00:34:21.620
 life

00:34:21.620 --> 00:34:21.920
 thinking

00:34:21.920 --> 00:34:22.300
 I hope

00:34:22.300 --> 00:34:22.600
 you do

00:34:22.600 --> 00:34:23.640
 but we are

00:34:23.640 --> 00:34:24.460
 seeing all

00:34:24.460 --> 00:34:24.700
 the things

00:34:24.700 --> 00:34:25.019
 that David

00:34:25.019 --> 00:34:25.400
 is doing

00:34:25.400 --> 00:34:25.940
 we are

00:34:25.940 --> 00:34:26.300
 seeing all

00:34:26.300 --> 00:34:26.760
 this great

00:34:26.760 --> 00:34:27.340
 but yet

00:34:27.340 --> 00:34:28.019
 we see

00:34:28.019 --> 00:34:29.019
 from verses

00:34:29.019 --> 00:34:29.539
 to

00:34:29.539 --> 00:34:31.860
 7

00:34:31.860 --> 00:34:32.220
 till

00:34:32.220 --> 00:34:32.800
 12

00:34:32.800 --> 00:34:33.260
 actually

00:34:33.260 --> 00:34:33.860
 there seems

00:34:33.860 --> 00:34:34.380
 to be a

00:34:34.380 --> 00:34:34.760
 conflict

00:34:34.760 --> 00:34:35.320
 with David

00:34:35.320 --> 00:34:36.360
 in one

00:34:36.360 --> 00:34:36.780
 sense

00:34:36.780 --> 00:34:37.580
 he do

00:34:37.580 --> 00:34:38.400
 trust

00:34:38.400 --> 00:34:38.840
 in God

00:34:38.840 --> 00:34:39.700
 but in

00:34:39.700 --> 00:34:39.940
 another

00:34:39.940 --> 00:34:40.240
 sense

00:34:40.240 --> 00:34:40.600
 he is

00:34:40.600 --> 00:34:40.980
 like

00:34:40.980 --> 00:34:41.880
 Lord

00:34:41.880 --> 00:34:42.440
 please be

00:34:42.440 --> 00:34:43.019
 merciful to

00:34:43.019 --> 00:34:43.140
 me

00:34:43.140 --> 00:34:43.700
 hear me

00:34:43.700 --> 00:34:44.200
 oh

00:34:44.200 --> 00:34:44.460
 Lord

00:34:44.460 --> 00:34:45.679
 do not

00:34:45.679 --> 00:34:46.139
 hide your

00:34:46.139 --> 00:34:46.420
 face

00:34:46.420 --> 00:34:46.940
 from me

00:34:46.940 --> 00:34:47.559
 there is

00:34:47.559 --> 00:34:49.019
 this sense

00:34:49.019 --> 00:34:49.380
 of

00:34:49.380 --> 00:34:51.099
 fighting

00:34:51.099 --> 00:34:51.559
 and

00:34:51.559 --> 00:34:52.420
 wrestling

00:34:52.420 --> 00:34:53.380
 in his

00:34:53.380 --> 00:34:53.740
 mind

00:34:53.740 --> 00:34:54.559
 why

00:34:54.559 --> 00:34:55.440
 because

00:34:55.440 --> 00:34:56.000
 as I said

00:34:56.000 --> 00:34:56.420
 before

00:34:56.420 --> 00:34:57.340
 David was

00:34:57.340 --> 00:34:57.780
 still a

00:34:57.780 --> 00:34:57.980
 sinner

00:34:57.980 --> 00:34:59.900
 David was

00:34:59.900 --> 00:35:00.400
 a person

00:35:00.400 --> 00:35:01.639
 who was

00:35:01.639 --> 00:35:02.079
 a murderer

00:35:02.079 --> 00:35:02.440
 at some

00:35:02.440 --> 00:35:02.760
 point

00:35:02.760 --> 00:35:04.039
 an adulterer

00:35:04.039 --> 00:35:04.880
 a liar

00:35:04.880 --> 00:35:05.980
 so it's

00:35:05.980 --> 00:35:06.539
 so easy

00:35:06.539 --> 00:35:07.619
 to imagine

00:35:07.619 --> 00:35:08.159
 why David

00:35:08.159 --> 00:35:08.639
 would wrestle

00:35:08.639 --> 00:35:09.000
 in these

00:35:09.000 --> 00:35:09.320
 verses

00:35:09.320 --> 00:35:10.139
 with this

00:35:10.139 --> 00:35:10.619
 question

00:35:10.619 --> 00:35:11.539
 will God

00:35:11.539 --> 00:35:12.300
 really forsake

00:35:12.300 --> 00:35:12.579
 me

00:35:12.579 --> 00:35:14.099
 will God

00:35:14.099 --> 00:35:14.380
 have

00:35:14.380 --> 00:35:14.759
 hide

00:35:14.759 --> 00:35:14.980
 his

00:35:14.980 --> 00:35:15.259
 face

00:35:15.259 --> 00:35:15.480
 from

00:35:15.480 --> 00:35:15.779
 me

00:35:15.779 --> 00:35:17.900
 he

00:35:17.900 --> 00:35:18.059
 might

00:35:18.059 --> 00:35:18.219
 be

00:35:18.219 --> 00:35:18.460
 thinking

00:35:18.460 --> 00:35:18.759
 like

00:35:18.759 --> 00:35:19.000
 I

00:35:19.000 --> 00:35:19.319
 want

00:35:19.319 --> 00:35:19.480
 to

00:35:19.480 --> 00:35:19.699
 gaze

00:35:19.699 --> 00:35:19.819
 on

00:35:19.819 --> 00:35:19.960
 the

00:35:19.960 --> 00:35:20.259
 beauty

00:35:20.259 --> 00:35:20.519
 of

00:35:20.519 --> 00:35:20.900
 God

00:35:20.900 --> 00:35:21.699
 but

00:35:21.699 --> 00:35:22.619
 am I

00:35:22.619 --> 00:35:22.980
 a sinner

00:35:22.980 --> 00:35:23.559
 how

00:35:23.559 --> 00:35:23.739
 am I

00:35:23.739 --> 00:35:23.779
 going to

00:35:23.779 --> 00:35:23.900
 do

00:35:23.900 --> 00:35:24.319
 that

00:35:24.319 --> 00:35:27.679
 that's

00:35:27.679 --> 00:35:27.839
 why

00:35:27.839 --> 00:35:27.980
 in

00:35:27.980 --> 00:35:28.440
 verse 7

00:35:28.440 --> 00:35:28.900
 he says

00:35:28.900 --> 00:35:29.159
 please

00:35:29.159 --> 00:35:29.480
 Lord

00:35:29.480 --> 00:35:29.960
 I

00:35:29.960 --> 00:35:30.239
 plead

00:35:30.239 --> 00:35:30.420
 for

00:35:30.420 --> 00:35:30.839
 mercy

00:35:30.839 --> 00:35:31.719
 please

00:35:31.719 --> 00:35:31.900
 have

00:35:31.900 --> 00:35:32.299
 mercy

00:35:32.299 --> 00:35:32.500
 on

00:35:32.500 --> 00:35:32.719
 me

00:35:32.719 --> 00:35:34.219
 that

00:35:34.219 --> 00:35:34.319
 is

00:35:34.319 --> 00:35:34.460
 why

00:35:34.460 --> 00:35:34.599
 I

00:35:34.599 --> 00:35:34.779
 said

00:35:34.779 --> 00:35:34.880
 at

00:35:34.880 --> 00:35:35.139
 beginning

00:35:35.139 --> 00:35:35.759
 this

00:35:35.759 --> 00:35:36.360
 from

00:35:36.360 --> 00:35:36.679
 1 to

00:35:36.679 --> 00:35:36.920
 6

00:35:36.920 --> 00:35:37.199
 seems

00:35:37.199 --> 00:35:37.360
 to

00:35:37.360 --> 00:35:37.599
 be

00:35:37.599 --> 00:35:38.639
 something

00:35:38.639 --> 00:35:38.900
 going

00:35:38.900 --> 00:35:39.199
 on

00:35:39.199 --> 00:35:39.559
 and

00:35:39.559 --> 00:35:39.679
 from

00:35:39.679 --> 00:35:39.920
 7

00:35:39.920 --> 00:35:40.039
 to

00:35:40.039 --> 00:35:40.360
 14

00:35:40.360 --> 00:35:40.579
 there

00:35:40.579 --> 00:35:40.860
 seems

00:35:40.860 --> 00:35:40.980
 to

00:35:40.980 --> 00:35:41.279
 be

00:35:41.280 --> 00:35:41.840
 a

00:35:41.840 --> 00:35:42.060
 different

00:35:42.060 --> 00:35:42.360
 country

00:35:42.360 --> 00:35:42.680
 something

00:35:42.680 --> 00:35:43.060
 different

00:35:43.060 --> 00:35:43.300
 going

00:35:43.300 --> 00:35:43.560
 on

00:35:43.560 --> 00:35:43.940
 but

00:35:43.940 --> 00:35:44.120
 I

00:35:44.120 --> 00:35:44.320
 think

00:35:44.320 --> 00:35:44.500
 it's

00:35:44.500 --> 00:35:44.780
 all

00:35:44.780 --> 00:35:45.180
 just

00:35:45.180 --> 00:35:45.540
 matched

00:35:45.540 --> 00:35:45.760
 all

00:35:45.760 --> 00:35:46.180
 together

00:35:46.180 --> 00:35:48.580
 in

00:35:48.580 --> 00:35:48.780
 his

00:35:48.780 --> 00:35:49.180
 wrestling

00:35:49.180 --> 00:35:49.440
 he

00:35:49.440 --> 00:35:49.940
 remembers

00:35:49.940 --> 00:35:50.280
 what

00:35:50.280 --> 00:35:50.560
 God

00:35:50.560 --> 00:35:50.780
 has

00:35:50.780 --> 00:35:51.080
 asked

00:35:51.080 --> 00:35:51.260
 for

00:35:51.260 --> 00:35:51.560
 him

00:35:51.559 --> 00:35:55.079
 look

00:35:55.079 --> 00:35:55.219
 what

00:35:55.219 --> 00:35:55.320
 it

00:35:55.320 --> 00:35:55.480
 says

00:35:55.480 --> 00:35:55.779
 verse

00:35:55.779 --> 00:35:56.340
 8

00:35:56.340 --> 00:35:56.960
 my

00:35:56.960 --> 00:35:57.340
 heart

00:35:57.340 --> 00:35:57.679
 says

00:35:57.679 --> 00:35:58.079
 you

00:35:58.079 --> 00:35:58.679
 seek

00:35:58.679 --> 00:35:59.000
 his

00:35:59.000 --> 00:35:59.519
 face

00:35:59.519 --> 00:36:00.039
 your

00:36:00.039 --> 00:36:00.480
 face

00:36:00.480 --> 00:36:00.779
 Lord

00:36:00.779 --> 00:36:01.279
 I

00:36:01.279 --> 00:36:01.480
 will

00:36:01.480 --> 00:36:02.000
 seek

00:36:02.000 --> 00:36:05.759
 a

00:36:05.759 --> 00:36:05.980
 better

00:36:05.980 --> 00:36:06.440
 translation

00:36:06.440 --> 00:36:06.699
 from

00:36:06.699 --> 00:36:07.960
 verse 8

00:36:07.960 --> 00:36:08.119
 would

00:36:08.119 --> 00:36:08.420
 say

00:36:08.420 --> 00:36:08.920
 to

00:36:08.920 --> 00:36:09.139
 my

00:36:09.139 --> 00:36:09.639
 heart

00:36:09.639 --> 00:36:09.980
 he

00:36:09.980 --> 00:36:10.279
 has

00:36:10.279 --> 00:36:10.820
 said

00:36:10.820 --> 00:36:11.679
 seek

00:36:11.679 --> 00:36:11.900
 my

00:36:11.900 --> 00:36:12.380
 face

00:36:12.380 --> 00:36:13.019
 and

00:36:13.019 --> 00:36:13.139
 what

00:36:13.139 --> 00:36:13.259
 I

00:36:13.259 --> 00:36:13.440
 think

00:36:13.440 --> 00:36:13.679
 David

00:36:13.679 --> 00:36:13.860
 is

00:36:13.860 --> 00:36:14.279
 remembering

00:36:14.279 --> 00:36:14.699
 here

00:36:14.699 --> 00:36:15.159
 he

00:36:15.159 --> 00:36:15.239
 is

00:36:15.239 --> 00:36:15.539
 remembering

00:36:15.539 --> 00:36:15.759
 that

00:36:15.759 --> 00:36:16.000
 at

00:36:16.000 --> 00:36:16.380
 some

00:36:16.380 --> 00:36:16.920
 point

00:36:16.920 --> 00:36:17.699
 at

00:36:17.699 --> 00:36:17.960
 one

00:36:17.960 --> 00:36:18.320
 point

00:36:18.320 --> 00:36:18.619
 God

00:36:18.619 --> 00:36:19.019
 asked

00:36:19.019 --> 00:36:19.299
 him

00:36:19.299 --> 00:36:19.960
 asked

00:36:19.960 --> 00:36:20.139
 his

00:36:20.139 --> 00:36:20.539
 people

00:36:20.539 --> 00:36:21.000
 not

00:36:21.000 --> 00:36:21.179
 him

00:36:21.179 --> 00:36:21.539
 particularly

00:36:21.539 --> 00:36:22.179
 his

00:36:22.179 --> 00:36:22.719
 forefathers

00:36:22.719 --> 00:36:23.599
 to

00:36:23.599 --> 00:36:23.900
 seek

00:36:23.900 --> 00:36:24.059
 his

00:36:24.059 --> 00:36:24.360
 face

00:36:24.360 --> 00:36:24.480
 in

00:36:24.480 --> 00:36:24.960
 Deuteronomy

00:36:24.960 --> 00:36:25.179
 chapter

00:36:25.179 --> 00:36:25.659
 4

00:36:25.659 --> 00:36:26.639
 and I

00:36:26.639 --> 00:36:26.860
 think

00:36:26.860 --> 00:36:27.139
 that

00:36:27.139 --> 00:36:27.719
 invitation

00:36:27.719 --> 00:36:28.000
 was

00:36:28.000 --> 00:36:28.300
 always

00:36:28.300 --> 00:36:28.639
 present

00:36:28.639 --> 00:36:28.800
 in

00:36:28.800 --> 00:36:29.099
 David's

00:36:29.099 --> 00:36:29.360
 mind

00:36:29.360 --> 00:36:29.940
 he

00:36:29.940 --> 00:36:30.159
 knew

00:36:30.159 --> 00:36:30.340
 that

00:36:30.340 --> 00:36:30.519
 what

00:36:30.519 --> 00:36:30.779
 God

00:36:30.779 --> 00:36:31.019
 really

00:36:31.019 --> 00:36:31.380
 wanted

00:36:31.380 --> 00:36:31.639
 from

00:36:31.639 --> 00:36:31.860
 his

00:36:31.860 --> 00:36:32.179
 people

00:36:32.179 --> 00:36:32.440
 was

00:36:32.440 --> 00:36:32.639
 to

00:36:32.639 --> 00:36:32.880
 seek

00:36:32.880 --> 00:36:33.920
 to

00:36:33.920 --> 00:36:34.119
 him

00:36:34.119 --> 00:36:35.659
 and I

00:36:35.659 --> 00:36:35.820
 think

00:36:35.820 --> 00:36:36.079
 that's

00:36:36.079 --> 00:36:36.199
 what

00:36:36.199 --> 00:36:36.340
 he

00:36:36.340 --> 00:36:36.539
 keeps

00:36:36.539 --> 00:36:36.679
 in

00:36:36.679 --> 00:36:36.920
 mind

00:36:36.920 --> 00:36:37.259
 in

00:36:37.259 --> 00:36:38.239
 this

00:36:38.239 --> 00:36:38.739
 situation

00:36:38.739 --> 00:36:39.420
 God

00:36:39.420 --> 00:36:39.579
 will

00:36:39.579 --> 00:36:40.800
 never

00:36:40.800 --> 00:36:41.139
 call

00:36:41.139 --> 00:36:41.279
 for

00:36:41.279 --> 00:36:41.440
 a

00:36:41.440 --> 00:36:41.679
 law

00:36:41.679 --> 00:36:41.900
 and

00:36:41.900 --> 00:36:42.179
 withhold

00:36:42.179 --> 00:36:42.400
 his

00:36:42.400 --> 00:36:42.639
 own

00:36:42.639 --> 00:36:43.039
 so

00:36:43.039 --> 00:36:43.239
 he

00:36:43.239 --> 00:36:43.579
 knows

00:36:43.579 --> 00:36:43.960
 if

00:36:43.960 --> 00:36:44.199
 God

00:36:44.199 --> 00:36:44.619
 always

00:36:44.619 --> 00:36:45.079
 wanted

00:36:45.079 --> 00:36:45.320
 to

00:36:45.320 --> 00:36:45.500
 be

00:36:45.500 --> 00:36:45.920
 seek

00:36:45.920 --> 00:36:46.480
 then

00:36:46.480 --> 00:36:46.759
 David

00:36:46.759 --> 00:36:47.000
 could

00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:47.279
 seek

00:36:51.539 --> 00:36:52.239
 for

00:36:52.239 --> 00:36:52.400
 every

00:36:52.400 --> 00:36:52.800
 person

00:36:52.800 --> 00:36:54.159
 and

00:36:54.159 --> 00:36:54.420
 this

00:36:54.420 --> 00:36:54.519
 is

00:36:54.519 --> 00:36:54.679
 what

00:36:54.679 --> 00:36:55.059
 produces

00:36:55.059 --> 00:36:55.860
 profound

00:36:55.860 --> 00:36:56.360
 confidence

00:36:56.360 --> 00:36:56.719
 to the

00:36:56.719 --> 00:36:56.960
 point

00:36:56.960 --> 00:36:57.480
 that

00:36:57.480 --> 00:36:57.599
 he

00:36:57.599 --> 00:36:58.000
 expresses

00:36:58.000 --> 00:36:58.340
 verse

00:36:58.340 --> 00:36:58.739
 10

00:36:58.739 --> 00:37:01.420
 where

00:37:01.420 --> 00:37:01.559
 he

00:37:01.559 --> 00:37:01.800
 says

00:37:01.800 --> 00:37:02.279
 even

00:37:02.279 --> 00:37:02.519
 when

00:37:02.519 --> 00:37:02.659
 my

00:37:02.659 --> 00:37:03.079
 father

00:37:03.079 --> 00:37:03.519
 my

00:37:03.519 --> 00:37:03.880
 mother

00:37:03.880 --> 00:37:04.159
 would

00:37:04.159 --> 00:37:04.579
 forsake

00:37:04.579 --> 00:37:04.800
 me

00:37:04.800 --> 00:37:05.159
 I

00:37:05.159 --> 00:37:05.360
 know

00:37:05.360 --> 00:37:05.500
 he

00:37:05.500 --> 00:37:05.699
 will

00:37:05.699 --> 00:37:06.039
 not

00:37:06.039 --> 00:37:06.460
 forsake

00:37:06.460 --> 00:37:06.659
 me

00:37:06.659 --> 00:37:07.059
 why

00:37:07.059 --> 00:37:07.420
 because

00:37:07.420 --> 00:37:07.619
 God

00:37:07.619 --> 00:37:07.800
 was

00:37:07.800 --> 00:37:08.079
 asking

00:37:08.079 --> 00:37:08.219
 me

00:37:08.219 --> 00:37:08.360
 to

00:37:08.360 --> 00:37:08.599
 seek

00:37:08.599 --> 00:37:08.739
 him

00:37:08.739 --> 00:37:09.079
 before

00:37:09.079 --> 00:37:09.820
 and

00:37:09.820 --> 00:37:10.159
 why

00:37:10.159 --> 00:37:10.619
 because

00:37:10.619 --> 00:37:10.840
 I

00:37:10.840 --> 00:37:11.159
 know

00:37:11.159 --> 00:37:11.360
 he

00:37:11.360 --> 00:37:11.539
 will

00:37:11.539 --> 00:37:11.739
 be

00:37:11.739 --> 00:37:12.059
 there

00:37:12.059 --> 00:37:12.340
 for

00:37:12.340 --> 00:37:12.599
 me

00:37:12.599 --> 00:37:17.320
 I

00:37:17.320 --> 00:37:17.559
 think

00:37:17.559 --> 00:37:17.719
 what

00:37:17.719 --> 00:37:17.960
 he

00:37:17.960 --> 00:37:19.199
 I

00:37:19.199 --> 00:37:19.360
 think

00:37:19.360 --> 00:37:19.480
 he

00:37:19.480 --> 00:37:19.739
 picks

00:37:19.739 --> 00:37:19.920
 the

00:37:19.920 --> 00:37:20.199
 image

00:37:20.199 --> 00:37:20.440
 of

00:37:20.440 --> 00:37:20.940
 parenthood

00:37:20.940 --> 00:37:21.219
 here

00:37:21.219 --> 00:37:21.539
 not

00:37:21.539 --> 00:37:23.759
 thinking

00:37:23.759 --> 00:37:23.980
 his

00:37:23.980 --> 00:37:24.219
 parents

00:37:24.219 --> 00:37:24.359
 were

00:37:24.359 --> 00:37:24.539
 very

00:37:24.539 --> 00:37:24.899
 bad

00:37:24.899 --> 00:37:25.059
 or

00:37:25.059 --> 00:37:25.219
 mean

00:37:25.219 --> 00:37:26.739
 people

00:37:26.739 --> 00:37:27.459
 but

00:37:27.459 --> 00:37:27.639
 I

00:37:27.639 --> 00:37:27.819
 think

00:37:27.819 --> 00:37:27.939
 he

00:37:27.939 --> 00:37:28.139
 just

00:37:28.139 --> 00:37:28.439
 used

00:37:28.439 --> 00:37:28.579
 it

00:37:28.579 --> 00:37:29.439
 as

00:37:29.439 --> 00:37:29.599
 a

00:37:29.599 --> 00:37:30.000
 reference

00:37:30.000 --> 00:37:30.359
 to

00:37:30.359 --> 00:37:30.659
 say

00:37:30.659 --> 00:37:31.019
 that

00:37:31.019 --> 00:37:32.239
 if

00:37:32.239 --> 00:37:32.359
 the

00:37:32.359 --> 00:37:32.579
 most

00:37:32.579 --> 00:37:33.339
 improbable

00:37:33.339 --> 00:37:34.039
 thing

00:37:34.039 --> 00:37:34.419
 ever

00:37:34.419 --> 00:37:34.899
 happened

00:37:34.899 --> 00:37:35.879
 even

00:37:35.879 --> 00:37:36.199
 if

00:37:36.199 --> 00:37:36.379
 the

00:37:36.379 --> 00:37:36.679
 most

00:37:36.679 --> 00:37:37.319
 improbable

00:37:38.299 --> 00:37:38.599
 like

00:37:38.599 --> 00:37:39.119
 my

00:37:39.119 --> 00:37:39.559
 parents

00:37:39.559 --> 00:37:39.799
 that

00:37:39.799 --> 00:37:40.019
 changed

00:37:40.019 --> 00:37:40.199
 my

 nappies

00:37:40.639 --> 00:37:40.799

00:38:35.920 --> 00:38:36.120
 we

00:38:36.120 --> 00:38:36.440
 walk

00:38:36.440 --> 00:38:36.580
 in

00:38:36.580 --> 00:38:36.780
 his

00:38:36.780 --> 00:38:37.280
 ways

00:38:37.280 --> 00:38:38.000
 we

00:38:38.000 --> 00:38:38.140
 are

00:38:38.140 --> 00:38:38.300
 no

00:38:38.300 --> 00:38:38.700
 longer

00:38:38.700 --> 00:38:39.240
 afraid

00:38:39.240 --> 00:38:39.400
 of

00:38:39.400 --> 00:38:39.519
 where

00:38:39.519 --> 00:38:39.720
 he

00:38:39.720 --> 00:38:39.920
 would

00:38:39.920 --> 00:38:40.160
 take

00:38:40.160 --> 00:38:40.500
 us

00:38:40.500 --> 00:38:42.140
 and

00:38:42.140 --> 00:38:42.280
 we

00:38:42.280 --> 00:38:42.400
 are

00:38:42.400 --> 00:38:42.519
 no

00:38:42.519 --> 00:38:42.820
 longer

00:38:42.820 --> 00:38:43.160
 afraid

00:38:43.160 --> 00:38:43.420
 where

00:38:43.420 --> 00:38:43.700
 he

00:38:43.700 --> 00:38:43.880
 would

00:38:43.880 --> 00:38:44.160
 take

00:38:44.160 --> 00:38:44.460
 us

00:38:44.460 --> 00:38:46.060
 we

00:38:46.060 --> 00:38:46.220
 can

00:38:46.220 --> 00:38:46.380
 go

00:38:46.380 --> 00:38:46.680
 wherever

00:38:46.680 --> 00:38:46.880
 he

00:38:46.880 --> 00:38:47.060
 lead

00:38:47.060 --> 00:38:47.360
 us

00:38:47.360 --> 00:38:48.500
 we

00:38:48.500 --> 00:38:48.660
 just

00:38:48.660 --> 00:38:48.980
 decide

00:38:48.980 --> 00:38:49.160
 to

00:38:49.160 --> 00:38:49.380
 follow

00:38:49.380 --> 00:38:49.700
 him

00:38:49.700 --> 00:38:52.079
 perhaps

00:38:52.079 --> 00:38:52.260
 you

00:38:52.260 --> 00:38:52.500
 wonder

00:38:52.500 --> 00:38:52.900
 why

00:38:52.900 --> 00:38:53.140
 can

00:38:53.140 --> 00:38:53.380
 I

00:38:53.380 --> 00:38:53.599
 know

00:38:53.599 --> 00:38:53.800
 be

00:38:53.800 --> 00:38:54.140
 obedient

00:38:54.140 --> 00:38:55.800
 to

00:38:55.800 --> 00:38:55.920
 the

00:38:55.920 --> 00:38:56.160
 Lord

00:38:56.160 --> 00:38:58.880
 perhaps

00:38:58.880 --> 00:38:59.019
 you

00:38:59.019 --> 00:38:59.160
 don't

00:38:59.160 --> 00:38:59.420
 trust

00:38:59.420 --> 00:38:59.660
 him

00:38:59.660 --> 00:39:00.160
 properly

00:39:00.160 --> 00:39:01.059
 and

00:39:01.059 --> 00:39:01.200
 why

00:39:01.200 --> 00:39:01.320
 you

00:39:01.320 --> 00:39:01.400
 can

00:39:01.400 --> 00:39:01.760
 trust

00:39:01.760 --> 00:39:01.880
 him

00:39:01.880 --> 00:39:02.280
 properly

00:39:02.280 --> 00:39:03.000
 perhaps

00:39:03.000 --> 00:39:03.160
 you

00:39:03.160 --> 00:39:03.320
 don't

00:39:03.320 --> 00:39:03.519
 know

00:39:03.519 --> 00:39:03.660
 him

00:39:03.660 --> 00:39:04.480
 go

00:39:04.480 --> 00:39:06.660
 from

00:39:06.660 --> 00:39:06.900
 one

00:39:06.900 --> 00:39:07.079
 way

00:39:07.079 --> 00:39:07.200
 to

00:39:07.200 --> 00:39:07.500
 another

00:39:07.500 --> 00:39:10.640
 this

00:39:10.640 --> 00:39:11.300
 is

00:39:11.300 --> 00:39:11.760
 probably

00:39:11.760 --> 00:39:12.140
 the last

00:39:12.140 --> 00:39:12.320
 few

00:39:12.320 --> 00:39:12.640
 minutes

00:39:12.640 --> 00:39:12.880
 and

00:39:12.880 --> 00:39:13.039
 I'll

00:39:13.039 --> 00:39:13.360
 finish

00:39:13.360 --> 00:39:14.940
 and

00:39:14.940 --> 00:39:15.099
 all

00:39:15.099 --> 00:39:15.200
 the

00:39:15.200 --> 00:39:15.640
 issues

00:39:15.640 --> 00:39:15.820
 that

00:39:15.820 --> 00:39:15.940
 we

00:39:15.940 --> 00:39:16.440
 face

00:39:16.440 --> 00:39:17.039
 generally

00:39:17.039 --> 00:39:17.280
 and

00:39:17.280 --> 00:39:17.400
 the

00:39:17.400 --> 00:39:17.820
 troubles

00:39:17.820 --> 00:39:18.160
 is

00:39:18.160 --> 00:39:18.480
 that

00:39:18.480 --> 00:39:19.760
 rather

00:39:19.760 --> 00:39:20.000
 than

00:39:20.000 --> 00:39:20.240
 being

00:39:20.240 --> 00:39:20.960
 compelled

00:39:20.960 --> 00:39:22.019
 as I

00:39:22.019 --> 00:39:22.340
 said

00:39:22.340 --> 00:39:22.760
 to

00:39:22.760 --> 00:39:23.179
 amazing

00:39:23.179 --> 00:39:23.400
 the

00:39:23.400 --> 00:39:23.679
 beauty

00:39:23.679 --> 00:39:23.880
 of

00:39:23.880 --> 00:39:24.219
 God

00:39:24.219 --> 00:39:24.420
 and

00:39:24.420 --> 00:39:24.539
 to

00:39:24.539 --> 00:39:24.719
 be

00:39:24.719 --> 00:39:25.320
 fascinated

00:39:25.320 --> 00:39:25.599
 about

00:39:25.599 --> 00:39:26.039
 who

00:39:26.039 --> 00:39:26.240
 God

00:39:26.240 --> 00:39:26.760
 is

00:39:26.760 --> 00:39:27.900
 sometimes

00:39:27.900 --> 00:39:28.280
 in

00:39:28.280 --> 00:39:28.460
 this

00:39:28.460 --> 00:39:28.639
 day

00:39:28.639 --> 00:39:28.760
 of

00:39:28.760 --> 00:39:29.039
 troubles

00:39:29.039 --> 00:39:29.400
 we

00:39:29.400 --> 00:39:30.179
 do

00:39:30.179 --> 00:39:31.559
 self

00:39:31.559 --> 00:39:32.019
 focus

00:39:32.019 --> 00:39:32.240
 on

00:39:32.240 --> 00:39:32.699
 ourselves

00:39:32.699 --> 00:39:32.900
 and

00:39:32.900 --> 00:39:35.159
 we

00:39:35.159 --> 00:39:39.300
 do

00:39:39.300 --> 00:39:39.659
 think

00:39:39.659 --> 00:39:39.960
 oh

00:39:39.960 --> 00:39:40.599
 there's

00:39:40.599 --> 00:39:40.920
 something

00:39:40.920 --> 00:39:41.199
 in me

00:39:41.199 --> 00:39:41.360
 to

00:39:41.360 --> 00:39:41.559
 fix

00:39:41.559 --> 00:39:41.659
 it

00:39:41.659 --> 00:39:41.760
 we

00:39:41.760 --> 00:39:42.019
 always

00:39:42.019 --> 00:39:42.260
 want

00:39:42.260 --> 00:39:42.400
 to

00:39:42.400 --> 00:39:42.579
 fix

00:39:42.579 --> 00:39:42.719
 our

00:39:42.719 --> 00:39:42.880
 own

00:39:42.880 --> 00:39:43.199
 troubles

00:39:43.199 --> 00:39:43.900
 and

00:39:43.900 --> 00:39:44.119
 that's

00:39:44.119 --> 00:39:44.400
 something

00:39:44.400 --> 00:39:45.219
 common

00:39:45.219 --> 00:39:45.760
 always

00:39:45.760 --> 00:39:46.159
 happening

00:39:46.159 --> 00:39:46.879
 personally

00:39:46.879 --> 00:39:47.079
 than

00:39:47.079 --> 00:39:47.299
 me

00:39:47.299 --> 00:39:47.940
 like

00:39:47.940 --> 00:39:48.339
 you

00:39:48.339 --> 00:39:48.599
 remember

00:39:48.599 --> 00:39:48.799
 my

00:39:48.799 --> 00:39:49.139
 story

00:39:49.139 --> 00:39:49.759
 I

00:39:49.759 --> 00:39:49.940
 was

00:39:49.940 --> 00:39:50.259
 trusting

00:39:50.259 --> 00:39:50.460
 in

00:39:50.460 --> 00:39:50.639
 God

00:39:50.639 --> 00:39:50.799
 but

00:39:50.799 --> 00:39:50.960
 what

00:39:50.960 --> 00:39:51.079
 had

00:39:51.079 --> 00:39:51.159
 in

 my

00:39:51.259 --> 00:39:51.500
 hand

00:39:51.500 --> 00:39:53.920
 beginning

00:39:53.920 --> 00:39:54.139
 of my

00:39:54.139 --> 00:39:54.420
 story

00:39:54.420 --> 00:39:54.920
 had a

00:39:54.920 --> 00:39:55.219
 machete

00:39:55.219 --> 00:39:55.559
 with me

00:39:55.559 --> 00:39:55.819
 right

00:39:55.819 --> 00:39:56.500
 so much

00:39:56.500 --> 00:39:56.839
 trusting

00:39:56.839 --> 00:39:57.119
 for me

00:39:57.119 --> 00:39:57.219
 I

00:39:57.219 --> 00:39:57.379
 was

00:39:57.379 --> 00:39:57.719
 trusting

00:39:57.719 --> 00:39:57.940
 that

00:39:57.940 --> 00:39:58.079
 the

00:39:58.079 --> 00:39:58.179
 Lord

00:39:58.179 --> 00:39:58.339

00:39:58.339 --> 00:39:58.460
 keep

00:39:58.460 --> 00:39:58.579

00:39:58.579 --> 00:39:58.839
 safe

00:39:58.839 --> 00:39:59.339
 but

00:39:59.339 --> 00:39:59.480
 in

00:39:59.480 --> 00:39:59.719
 one

00:39:59.719 --> 00:40:00.279
 of

00:40:01.099 --> 00:40:01.399
 the problem

00:40:02.259 --> 00:40:02.359
 was

00:40:02.359 --> 00:40:02.960
 the way

 many

00:40:07.619 --> 00:40:07.880
 ways

 do

00:40:12.799 --> 00:40:13.039
 want

00:40:17.739 --> 00:40:17.859
 is

00:40:17.859 --> 00:40:18.019
 a

00:40:18.019 --> 00:40:18.159
 better

00:40:18.159 --> 00:40:18.380
 way

00:40:18.380 --> 00:40:18.539
 to

00:40:18.539 --> 00:40:18.779
 solve

00:40:18.779 --> 00:40:19.059
 it

00:40:19.059 --> 00:40:19.679
 let's

00:40:19.679 --> 00:40:19.960
 do

00:40:19.960 --> 00:40:20.099
 it

00:40:20.099 --> 00:40:20.259
 that

00:40:20.259 --> 00:40:20.519
 way

00:40:20.519 --> 00:40:24.400
 and

00:40:24.400 --> 00:40:24.539
 it's

00:40:24.539 --> 00:40:24.639
 in

00:40:24.639 --> 00:40:24.799
 this

00:40:24.799 --> 00:40:25.119
 situation

00:40:25.119 --> 00:40:25.460
 when we

00:40:25.460 --> 00:40:25.659
 do

00:40:25.659 --> 00:40:26.000
 that

00:40:26.000 --> 00:40:26.799
 that

00:40:26.799 --> 00:40:26.980
 we

00:40:26.980 --> 00:40:27.380
 become

00:40:27.380 --> 00:40:27.699
 less

00:40:27.699 --> 00:40:28.079
 focused

00:40:28.079 --> 00:40:28.319
 on

00:40:28.319 --> 00:40:28.659
 God

00:40:28.659 --> 00:40:29.420
 and

00:40:29.420 --> 00:40:29.559
 more

00:40:29.559 --> 00:40:29.900
 focused

00:40:29.900 --> 00:40:30.059
 on

00:40:30.059 --> 00:40:30.859
 ourselves

00:40:30.859 --> 00:40:32.000
 and

00:40:32.000 --> 00:40:32.239
 we

00:40:32.239 --> 00:40:32.659
 lose

00:40:32.659 --> 00:40:35.079
 the

00:40:35.079 --> 00:40:35.299
 fourth

00:40:35.299 --> 00:40:35.739
 perspective

00:40:35.739 --> 00:40:36.019
 of the

00:40:36.019 --> 00:40:36.460
 situation

00:40:36.460 --> 00:40:37.400
 and God

00:40:37.400 --> 00:40:37.780
 become

00:40:37.780 --> 00:40:38.059
 so

00:40:38.059 --> 00:40:38.460
 small

00:40:38.460 --> 00:40:38.720
 for

00:40:38.720 --> 00:40:39.160
 us

00:40:39.160 --> 00:40:39.960
 and

00:40:39.960 --> 00:40:40.079
 the

00:40:40.079 --> 00:40:40.480
 situations

00:40:40.480 --> 00:40:40.680
 we

00:40:40.680 --> 00:40:40.780
 are

00:40:40.780 --> 00:40:41.119
 facing

00:40:41.119 --> 00:40:42.079
 because

00:40:42.079 --> 00:40:42.300
 even

00:40:42.300 --> 00:40:42.680
 bigger

00:40:42.680 --> 00:40:48.559
 so

00:40:48.559 --> 00:40:48.760
 what

00:40:48.760 --> 00:40:50.000
 has

00:40:50.000 --> 00:40:50.260
 David

00:40:50.260 --> 00:40:50.579
 done

00:40:50.579 --> 00:40:50.700
 in

00:40:50.700 --> 00:40:50.860
 order

00:40:50.860 --> 00:40:51.019
 to

00:40:51.019 --> 00:40:51.160
 wait

00:40:51.160 --> 00:40:51.320
 for

00:40:51.320 --> 00:40:51.579
 God

00:40:51.579 --> 00:40:52.160
 three

00:40:52.160 --> 00:40:52.400
 main

00:40:52.400 --> 00:40:52.720
 things

00:40:52.720 --> 00:40:53.280
 he

00:40:53.280 --> 00:40:53.720
 decided

00:40:53.720 --> 00:40:54.039
 to

00:40:54.039 --> 00:40:54.639
 remember

00:40:54.639 --> 00:40:54.840
 who

00:40:54.840 --> 00:40:55.019
 God

00:40:55.019 --> 00:40:55.340
 is

00:40:55.340 --> 00:40:56.019
 he

00:40:56.019 --> 00:40:56.380
 decided

00:40:56.380 --> 00:40:56.740
 to

00:40:56.740 --> 00:40:57.280
 delight

00:40:57.280 --> 00:40:57.460
 in

00:40:57.460 --> 00:40:57.639
 who

00:40:57.639 --> 00:40:57.880
 God

00:40:57.880 --> 00:40:58.220
 is

00:40:58.220 --> 00:40:58.880
 and

00:40:58.880 --> 00:40:59.039
 he

00:40:59.039 --> 00:40:59.460
 decided

00:40:59.460 --> 00:40:59.920
 to

00:40:59.920 --> 00:41:02.260
 follow

00:41:02.260 --> 00:41:02.519
 and

00:41:02.519 --> 00:41:02.960
 obey

00:41:02.960 --> 00:41:04.099
 God's

00:41:04.099 --> 00:41:04.380
 way

00:41:04.380 --> 00:41:06.519
 but

00:41:06.519 --> 00:41:06.760
 one

00:41:06.760 --> 00:41:06.880
 of

00:41:06.880 --> 00:41:06.980
 the

00:41:06.980 --> 00:41:07.220
 things

00:41:07.220 --> 00:41:07.540
 that

00:41:07.540 --> 00:41:08.840
 you

00:41:08.840 --> 00:41:09.000
 can

00:41:09.000 --> 00:41:09.240
 see

00:41:09.240 --> 00:41:09.520
 throughout

00:41:09.520 --> 00:41:09.740
 this

00:41:09.740 --> 00:41:10.060
 passage

00:41:10.060 --> 00:41:10.280
 as

00:41:10.280 --> 00:41:10.540
 well

00:41:10.540 --> 00:41:11.580
 is

00:41:11.580 --> 00:41:11.860
 that

00:41:11.860 --> 00:41:15.780
 there

00:41:15.780 --> 00:41:15.920
 is

00:41:15.920 --> 00:41:16.080
 a

00:41:16.080 --> 00:41:16.500
 constant

00:41:16.500 --> 00:41:17.580
 mention

00:41:17.580 --> 00:41:18.160
 of

00:41:18.160 --> 00:41:18.320
 the

00:41:18.320 --> 00:41:18.540
 word

00:41:18.540 --> 00:41:19.360
 temple

00:41:19.360 --> 00:41:20.640
 tabernacle

00:41:20.640 --> 00:41:21.760
 house

00:41:21.760 --> 00:41:21.940
 of

00:41:21.940 --> 00:41:22.180
 God

00:41:22.180 --> 00:41:22.460
 throughout

00:41:22.460 --> 00:41:22.700
 this

00:41:22.700 --> 00:41:23.140
 passage

00:41:23.140 --> 00:41:24.680
 it's

00:41:24.680 --> 00:41:24.900
 something

00:41:24.900 --> 00:41:25.120
 very

00:41:25.120 --> 00:41:25.500
 compelling

00:41:25.500 --> 00:41:26.060
 as I

00:41:26.060 --> 00:41:26.320
 said

00:41:26.320 --> 00:41:27.660
 chapter

00:41:27.660 --> 00:41:28.200
 26

00:41:28.200 --> 00:41:28.460
 chapter

00:41:28.460 --> 00:41:29.020
 27

00:41:29.019 --> 00:41:30.019
 so

00:41:30.019 --> 00:41:34.380
 how

00:41:34.380 --> 00:41:34.579
 can

00:41:34.579 --> 00:41:34.900
 God

00:41:34.900 --> 00:41:35.199
 how

00:41:35.199 --> 00:41:35.380
 can

00:41:35.380 --> 00:41:35.699
 David

00:41:35.699 --> 00:41:35.940
 have

00:41:35.940 --> 00:41:36.059
 the

00:41:36.059 --> 00:41:36.380
 confidence

00:41:36.380 --> 00:41:36.599
 that

00:41:36.599 --> 00:41:36.780
 God

00:41:36.780 --> 00:41:36.920
 will

00:41:36.920 --> 00:41:37.259
 rescue

00:41:37.259 --> 00:41:37.519
 him

00:41:37.519 --> 00:41:38.460
 it

00:41:38.460 --> 00:41:38.659
 seems

00:41:38.659 --> 00:41:38.840
 like

00:41:38.840 --> 00:41:38.960
 the

00:41:38.960 --> 00:41:39.199
 answer

00:41:39.199 --> 00:41:39.380
 for

00:41:39.380 --> 00:41:39.539
 him

00:41:39.539 --> 00:41:39.840
 straight

00:41:39.840 --> 00:41:40.079
 is

00:41:40.079 --> 00:41:40.239
 like

00:41:40.239 --> 00:41:40.380
 he

00:41:40.380 --> 00:41:40.619
 goes

00:41:40.619 --> 00:41:40.719
 to

00:41:40.719 --> 00:41:40.820
 the

00:41:40.820 --> 00:41:41.059
 temple

00:41:41.059 --> 00:41:41.219
 he

00:41:41.219 --> 00:41:41.440
 goes

00:41:41.440 --> 00:41:41.539
 to

00:41:41.539 --> 00:41:41.639
 the

00:41:41.639 --> 00:41:41.920
 temple

00:41:41.920 --> 00:41:42.400
 but

00:41:42.400 --> 00:41:42.619
 one

00:41:42.619 --> 00:41:42.719
 of

00:41:42.719 --> 00:41:42.780
 the

00:41:42.780 --> 00:41:42.940
 things

00:41:42.940 --> 00:41:43.159
 we

00:41:43.159 --> 00:41:43.480
 know

00:41:43.480 --> 00:41:44.179
 because

00:41:44.179 --> 00:41:44.280
 of

00:41:44.280 --> 00:41:44.360
 the

00:41:44.360 --> 00:41:44.639
 time

00:41:44.639 --> 00:41:45.199
 that

00:41:45.199 --> 00:41:45.420
 David

00:41:45.420 --> 00:41:45.739
 wasn't

00:41:45.739 --> 00:41:45.900
 the

00:41:45.900 --> 00:41:46.159
 one

00:41:46.159 --> 00:41:46.340
 who

00:41:46.340 --> 00:41:46.679
 built

00:41:46.679 --> 00:41:46.960
 the

00:41:46.960 --> 00:41:47.320
 temple

00:41:47.320 --> 00:41:47.739
 he

00:41:47.739 --> 00:41:49.239
 was

00:41:49.239 --> 00:41:49.440
 his

00:41:49.440 --> 00:41:49.699
 son

00:41:49.699 --> 00:41:49.860
 the

00:41:49.860 --> 00:41:50.019
 one

00:41:50.019 --> 00:41:50.159
 who

00:41:50.159 --> 00:41:50.340
 built

00:41:50.340 --> 00:41:50.480
 the

00:41:50.480 --> 00:41:50.800
 temple

00:41:50.800 --> 00:41:51.759
 and

00:41:51.759 --> 00:41:51.980
 one

00:41:51.980 --> 00:41:52.099
 of

00:41:52.099 --> 00:41:52.199
 the

00:41:52.199 --> 00:41:52.380
 things

00:41:52.380 --> 00:41:52.539
 that

00:41:52.539 --> 00:41:52.780
 David

00:41:52.780 --> 00:41:53.000
 is

00:41:53.000 --> 00:41:54.159
 saying

00:41:54.159 --> 00:41:54.579
 constantly

00:41:54.579 --> 00:41:54.820
 he

00:41:54.820 --> 00:41:55.159
 wants

00:41:55.159 --> 00:41:56.059
 to

00:41:56.059 --> 00:41:56.179
 be

00:41:56.179 --> 00:41:56.280
 at

00:41:56.280 --> 00:41:56.380
 the

00:41:56.380 --> 00:41:56.679
 temple

00:41:56.679 --> 00:41:57.179
 he

00:41:57.179 --> 00:41:57.559
 wants

00:41:57.559 --> 00:41:57.800
 to

00:41:57.800 --> 00:41:58.280
 go

00:41:58.280 --> 00:41:58.519
 and

00:41:58.519 --> 00:41:58.820
 gaze

00:41:58.820 --> 00:41:58.920
 in

00:41:58.920 --> 00:41:59.039
 the

00:41:59.039 --> 00:41:59.340
 temple

00:41:59.340 --> 00:41:59.500
 of

00:41:59.500 --> 00:41:59.699
 God

00:41:59.699 --> 00:42:00.159
 I

00:42:00.159 --> 00:42:00.440
 wonder

00:42:00.440 --> 00:42:01.099
 what

00:42:01.099 --> 00:42:01.320
 is

00:42:01.320 --> 00:42:01.500
 he

00:42:01.500 --> 00:42:01.719
 meaning

00:42:01.719 --> 00:42:02.019
 by

00:42:02.019 --> 00:42:02.940
 it

00:42:02.940 --> 00:42:04.820
 wouldn't

00:42:04.820 --> 00:42:05.039
 it

00:42:05.039 --> 00:42:05.519
 be

00:42:05.519 --> 00:42:07.920
 that

00:42:07.920 --> 00:42:08.039
 he

00:42:08.039 --> 00:42:08.139
 is

00:42:08.139 --> 00:42:08.300
 not

00:42:08.300 --> 00:42:08.639
 actually

00:42:08.639 --> 00:42:08.940
 meaning

00:42:08.940 --> 00:42:09.420
 a

00:42:09.420 --> 00:42:10.460
 physical

00:42:10.460 --> 00:42:10.940
 temple

00:42:10.940 --> 00:42:13.519
 but

00:42:13.519 --> 00:42:13.679
 he

00:42:13.679 --> 00:42:13.800
 is

00:42:13.800 --> 00:42:14.019
 meaning

00:42:14.019 --> 00:42:14.260
 the

00:42:14.260 --> 00:42:14.739
 place

00:42:14.739 --> 00:42:14.940
 where

00:42:14.940 --> 00:42:15.219
 God

00:42:15.219 --> 00:42:16.119
 dwells

00:42:16.119 --> 00:42:19.079
 which

00:42:19.079 --> 00:42:19.179
 at

00:42:19.179 --> 00:42:19.260
 the

00:42:19.260 --> 00:42:19.440
 time

00:42:19.440 --> 00:42:19.639
 could

00:42:19.639 --> 00:42:19.940
 be

00:42:19.940 --> 00:42:20.559
 the

00:42:20.559 --> 00:42:21.099
 tabernacle

00:42:21.099 --> 00:42:22.019
 which

00:42:22.019 --> 00:42:22.320
 was a

00:42:22.320 --> 00:42:22.900
 foreshadow

00:42:22.900 --> 00:42:23.840
 of

00:42:23.840 --> 00:42:24.000
 the

00:42:24.000 --> 00:42:24.380
 war

00:42:24.380 --> 00:42:25.039
 once

00:42:25.039 --> 00:42:25.340
 became

00:42:25.340 --> 00:42:25.900
 flesh

00:42:25.900 --> 00:42:27.440
 of

00:42:27.440 --> 00:42:27.579
 the

00:42:27.579 --> 00:42:27.880
 war

00:42:27.880 --> 00:42:28.099
 that

00:42:28.099 --> 00:42:28.400
 chapter

00:42:28.400 --> 00:42:28.920
 John

00:42:28.920 --> 00:42:29.220
 verse

00:42:29.220 --> 00:42:31.039
 14

00:42:31.039 --> 00:42:31.800
 says

00:42:31.800 --> 00:42:33.840
 it

00:42:33.840 --> 00:42:34.139
 became

00:42:34.139 --> 00:42:34.780
 flesh

00:42:34.780 --> 00:42:35.539
 and

00:42:35.539 --> 00:42:35.800
 dwell

00:42:35.800 --> 00:42:36.059
 among

00:42:36.059 --> 00:42:36.500
 us

00:42:36.500 --> 00:42:37.599
 or

00:42:37.599 --> 00:42:37.760
 it's

00:42:37.760 --> 00:42:38.019
 better

00:42:38.019 --> 00:42:38.539
 translated

00:42:38.539 --> 00:42:38.880
 from

00:42:38.880 --> 00:42:39.019
 the

00:42:39.019 --> 00:42:39.320
 Greek

00:42:39.320 --> 00:42:40.099
 and

00:42:40.099 --> 00:42:40.280
 the

00:42:40.280 --> 00:42:40.660
 one

00:42:40.660 --> 00:42:40.860
 who

00:42:40.860 --> 00:42:41.139
 put

00:42:41.139 --> 00:42:41.360
 his

00:42:41.360 --> 00:42:42.039
 tabernacle

00:42:42.039 --> 00:42:43.760
 among

00:42:43.760 --> 00:42:44.280
 us

00:42:44.280 --> 00:42:46.119
 it

00:42:46.119 --> 00:42:46.280
 is

00:42:46.280 --> 00:42:46.559
 funny

00:42:46.559 --> 00:42:46.760
 when

00:42:46.760 --> 00:42:46.980
 David

00:42:46.980 --> 00:42:47.139
 is

00:42:47.139 --> 00:42:47.380
 talking

00:42:47.380 --> 00:42:47.599
 about

00:42:47.599 --> 00:42:47.900
 trust

00:42:47.900 --> 00:42:48.019
 he

00:42:48.019 --> 00:42:48.260
 says

00:42:48.260 --> 00:42:48.700
 I

00:42:48.700 --> 00:42:49.099
 want

00:42:49.099 --> 00:42:49.440
 to

00:42:49.440 --> 00:42:49.700
 go

00:42:49.700 --> 00:42:49.860
 to

00:42:49.860 --> 00:42:49.980
 the

00:42:49.980 --> 00:42:50.240
 temple

00:42:50.240 --> 00:42:50.440
 I

00:42:50.440 --> 00:42:50.720
 want

00:42:50.720 --> 00:42:50.840
 to

00:42:50.840 --> 00:42:50.960
 be

00:42:50.960 --> 00:42:51.039
 in

00:42:51.039 --> 00:42:51.119
 a

00:42:51.119 --> 00:42:51.260
 temple

00:42:51.260 --> 00:42:51.380
 I

00:42:51.380 --> 00:42:51.500
 want

00:42:51.500 --> 00:42:51.599
 to

00:42:51.599 --> 00:42:51.860
 dwell

00:42:51.860 --> 00:42:51.960
 in

00:42:51.960 --> 00:42:52.079
 the

00:42:52.079 --> 00:42:52.380
 temple

00:42:52.380 --> 00:42:53.519
 and

00:42:53.519 --> 00:42:53.680
 we

00:42:53.680 --> 00:42:53.880
 put

00:42:53.880 --> 00:42:54.039
 that

00:42:54.039 --> 00:42:54.180
 in

00:42:54.180 --> 00:42:54.660
 context

00:42:54.660 --> 00:42:55.440
 I

00:42:55.440 --> 00:42:55.640
 do

00:42:55.640 --> 00:42:56.000
 think

00:42:56.000 --> 00:42:56.380
 that

00:42:56.380 --> 00:42:57.039
 temple

00:42:57.039 --> 00:42:58.000
 for

00:42:58.000 --> 00:42:58.579
 ourselves

00:42:58.579 --> 00:42:59.539
 could be

00:42:59.539 --> 00:42:59.820
 Jesus

00:42:59.820 --> 00:43:02.000
 the real

00:43:02.000 --> 00:43:02.380
 temple

00:43:02.380 --> 00:43:04.420
 the real

00:43:04.420 --> 00:43:05.920
 dwelling place

00:43:05.920 --> 00:43:06.440
 where God

00:43:06.440 --> 00:43:06.960
 lives

00:43:06.960 --> 00:43:08.039
 the place

00:43:08.039 --> 00:43:08.700
 where mercy

00:43:08.700 --> 00:43:09.460
 and justice

00:43:09.460 --> 00:43:10.019
 leads

00:43:10.019 --> 00:43:11.440
 why is

00:43:11.440 --> 00:43:12.019
 David

00:43:12.019 --> 00:43:13.039
 always

00:43:13.039 --> 00:43:13.599
 confident

00:43:13.599 --> 00:43:14.559
 that God

00:43:14.559 --> 00:43:15.079
 will rescue

00:43:15.079 --> 00:43:15.360
 him

00:43:15.360 --> 00:43:16.160
 why is

00:43:16.160 --> 00:43:16.400
 David

00:43:16.400 --> 00:43:16.820
 always

00:43:16.820 --> 00:43:17.380
 confident

00:43:17.380 --> 00:43:17.880
 that God

00:43:17.880 --> 00:43:18.160
 will be

00:43:18.160 --> 00:43:18.480
 there for

00:43:18.480 --> 00:43:18.800
 him

00:43:18.800 --> 00:43:21.220
 because

00:43:21.220 --> 00:43:21.340
 he

00:43:21.340 --> 00:43:21.460
 was

00:43:21.460 --> 00:43:21.740
 hoping

00:43:21.740 --> 00:43:21.940
 for

00:43:21.940 --> 00:43:22.039
 his

00:43:22.039 --> 00:43:22.500
 Messiah

00:43:22.500 --> 00:43:23.340
 Jesus

00:43:23.340 --> 00:43:25.180
 why

00:43:25.180 --> 00:43:25.420
 can

00:43:25.420 --> 00:43:25.760
 we

00:43:25.760 --> 00:43:26.300
 have

00:43:26.300 --> 00:43:26.880
 confidence

00:43:26.880 --> 00:43:27.320
 that

00:43:27.320 --> 00:43:28.080
 God

00:43:28.080 --> 00:43:28.220
 will

00:43:28.220 --> 00:43:28.320
 be

00:43:28.320 --> 00:43:28.460
 there

00:43:28.460 --> 00:43:28.640
 for

00:43:28.640 --> 00:43:28.980
 us

00:43:28.980 --> 00:43:30.000
 because

00:43:30.000 --> 00:43:30.340
 that's

00:43:30.340 --> 00:43:30.440
 what

00:43:31.720 --> 00:43:31.920
 has

00:43:31.920 --> 00:43:32.100
 said

00:43:32.100 --> 00:43:32.280
 to

00:43:32.280 --> 00:43:32.640
 us

00:43:32.640 --> 00:43:35.240
 he

00:43:35.240 --> 00:43:35.800
