00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:08.099
 I'm gonna talk to you this morning about capacity capacity how many times have you thought

00:00:08.099 --> 00:00:17.920
! or said to yourself I don't have the capacity I don't have the capacity to handle my my my business

00:00:17.920 --> 00:00:22.960
! my job I don't have the capacity to handle my marriage I have the capacity to handle single being

00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:28.320
 single I know the capacity to handle all these kids I have the capacity to handle our church

00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:31.320
 I don't have the capacity to handle my living situation

00:00:31.320 --> 00:00:35.759
 I don't have the capacity to handle all the things wrong with my house

00:00:35.759 --> 00:00:38.100
 I don't have the capacity to handle my health

00:00:38.100 --> 00:00:40.079
 I don't have the capacity to handle

00:00:40.079 --> 00:00:43.159
 I mean you guys keep going, you get the point?

00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:48.500
 I don't have the capacity, we say this

00:00:48.500 --> 00:00:49.700
 maybe we don't say it out loud

00:00:49.700 --> 00:00:52.880
 but it's reverberating in our minds, right?

00:00:52.960 --> 00:00:54.859
 Oh, I can't do this, I don't have the capacity

00:00:54.859 --> 00:00:57.140
 it's like, I'm at the end of myself

00:00:57.140 --> 00:00:59.140
 what's the definition of capacity?

00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:04.620
 the maximum amount that something can contain, produce, or hold

00:01:04.620 --> 00:01:07.700
 another way of saying it is, what someone can handle

00:01:07.700 --> 00:01:12.200
 what this life, this person can handle

00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:14.200
 and what happens is you feel like, oh

00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:17.519
 more than I can handle just got put on my plate

00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:21.859
 more than I can handle has been doled out to me

00:01:21.859 --> 00:01:24.840
 and therefore, I can't handle it

00:01:24.840 --> 00:01:26.599
 I don't have the capacity

00:01:26.599 --> 00:01:29.099
 so what's your max?

00:01:29.519 --> 00:01:30.140
 you know, what's

00:01:30.140 --> 00:01:31.679
 what's

00:01:31.679 --> 00:01:36.280
 what is the max that you can handle?

00:01:36.659 --> 00:01:39.000
 how do you view your max being challenged

00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:41.039
 and your weakness being exposed?

00:01:41.619 --> 00:01:42.679
 do you freak out about that?

00:01:42.739 --> 00:01:43.500
 do you avoid that?

00:01:43.599 --> 00:01:45.079
 do you embrace that?

00:01:45.879 --> 00:01:48.139
 let's look at 2 Corinthians chapter 11

00:01:48.139 --> 00:01:49.619
 24 to 30

00:01:49.619 --> 00:01:50.979
 2 Corinthians 11

00:01:50.979 --> 00:01:52.500
 24 to 30

00:01:52.500 --> 00:01:55.060
 speaking of capacity

00:01:55.060 --> 00:01:56.439
 this is Paul

00:01:56.439 --> 00:01:59.680
 five times I received at the hands of the Jews

00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:01.700
 the 40 lashes less one

00:02:01.700 --> 00:02:03.140
 okay, you could stop there

00:02:03.140 --> 00:02:03.659
 I don't know if

00:02:03.659 --> 00:02:05.879
 capacity wise

00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:07.000
 five times

00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:08.039
 the

00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:08.439
 the

00:02:08.439 --> 00:02:10.479
 the 40 lashes less one

00:02:10.479 --> 00:02:13.840
 that's some intense lashing right there

00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:14.280
 okay

00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:16.580
 five times that happened to him

00:02:16.580 --> 00:02:19.060
 one time would probably do us in

00:02:19.060 --> 00:02:19.560
 okay

00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:21.020
 five times

00:02:21.020 --> 00:02:22.400
 it goes on

00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:23.220
 three times

00:02:23.220 --> 00:02:24.720
 I was beaten with rods

00:02:24.720 --> 00:02:27.939
 how many times have you been beaten with rods?

00:02:29.080 --> 00:02:29.780
 why not?

00:02:30.340 --> 00:02:30.980
 three times

00:02:30.980 --> 00:02:31.680
 or any time

00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:34.020
 one time I was stoned

00:02:34.020 --> 00:02:36.240
 three times I was shipwrecked

00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:37.320
 a night and a day

00:02:37.320 --> 00:02:38.520
 I was adrift at sea

00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:40.260
 on frequent journeys

00:02:40.260 --> 00:02:41.680
 in danger from rivers

00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:43.320
 danger from robbers

00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:44.979
 danger from my own people

00:02:44.979 --> 00:02:46.319
 danger from Gentiles

00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:47.959
 danger in the city

00:02:47.959 --> 00:02:50.180
 danger in the wilderness

00:02:50.180 --> 00:02:52.359
 danger at sea

00:02:52.359 --> 00:02:53.719
 danger from false brothers

00:02:53.719 --> 00:02:55.359
 in toil and hardship

00:02:55.359 --> 00:02:57.639
 through many a sleepless night

00:02:57.639 --> 00:02:59.500
 in hunger and thirst

00:02:59.500 --> 00:03:01.459
 often without food

00:03:01.459 --> 00:03:03.599
 in cold and exposure

00:03:03.599 --> 00:03:05.719
 and apart from other things

00:03:05.719 --> 00:03:07.479
 there is the daily pressure on me

00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:09.759
 of my anxiety for all the churches

00:03:09.759 --> 00:03:11.019
 who is weak

00:03:11.020 --> 00:03:13.680
 and I am not weak

00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:15.060
 who is made to fall

00:03:15.060 --> 00:03:16.480
 and I am not indignant

00:03:16.480 --> 00:03:17.920
 if I must boast

00:03:17.920 --> 00:03:19.340
 I will boast of the things

00:03:19.340 --> 00:03:20.800
 that show my weakness

00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:22.379
 if I will boast

00:03:22.379 --> 00:03:23.460
 I must boast

00:03:23.460 --> 00:03:25.260
 I will boast of the things

00:03:25.260 --> 00:03:26.840
 that show my weakness

00:03:26.840 --> 00:03:28.700
 that's quite a list

00:03:28.700 --> 00:03:30.360
 it's quite a list

00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:32.180
 and

00:03:32.180 --> 00:03:33.420
 you know

00:03:33.420 --> 00:03:35.020
 when we talk about these kind of things

00:03:35.020 --> 00:03:36.920
 over my many years of preaching

00:03:36.920 --> 00:03:37.740
 I've observed

00:03:37.740 --> 00:03:39.300
 that two people

00:03:39.300 --> 00:03:41.100
 hear the exact same sermon

00:03:41.100 --> 00:03:43.159
 and they have a completely different response

00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:43.960
 what is

00:03:43.960 --> 00:03:45.200
 one is burdened

00:03:45.200 --> 00:03:47.280
 and one is challenged

00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:48.520
 okay

00:03:48.520 --> 00:03:49.540
 one is burdened

00:03:49.540 --> 00:03:50.300
 and one is challenged

00:03:50.300 --> 00:03:51.219
 and one is challenged

00:03:51.219 --> 00:03:52.320
 why is that

00:03:52.320 --> 00:03:53.200
 well

00:03:53.200 --> 00:03:55.780
 it really depends on what we believe

00:03:55.780 --> 00:03:56.920
 about

00:03:56.920 --> 00:03:58.100
 what we can handle

00:03:58.100 --> 00:03:59.320
 really believe

00:03:59.320 --> 00:04:00.420
 it depends on what we believe

00:04:00.420 --> 00:04:01.060
 about our capacity

00:04:01.060 --> 00:04:02.240
 which really means

00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:03.420
 it really depends

00:04:03.420 --> 00:04:04.400
 what we believe about God

00:04:04.400 --> 00:04:05.640
 okay

00:04:05.639 --> 00:04:07.599
 1 John 5 verse 3

00:04:07.599 --> 00:04:08.379
 says

00:04:08.379 --> 00:04:09.259
 his commands

00:04:09.259 --> 00:04:10.799
 are not burdensome

00:04:10.799 --> 00:04:13.000
 how many times have we said

00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:13.879
 the very opposite

00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:14.779
 of what the word of God

00:04:14.779 --> 00:04:15.639
 just says right there

00:04:15.639 --> 00:04:17.419
 maybe you didn't say it out loud

00:04:17.419 --> 00:04:18.399
 but in your heart

00:04:18.399 --> 00:04:18.860
 you said

00:04:18.860 --> 00:04:20.159
 oh I can't do this

00:04:20.159 --> 00:04:21.699
 his commands are burdensome

00:04:21.699 --> 00:04:22.560
 it's too much

00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:24.599
 the preacher preaching

00:04:24.599 --> 00:04:25.699
 the commands of God

00:04:25.699 --> 00:04:27.919
 it's too much

00:04:27.919 --> 00:04:29.459
 well what does the Bible say

00:04:29.459 --> 00:04:31.259
 his commands are not burdensome

00:04:31.259 --> 00:04:32.319
 which are you going to believe

00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:32.899
 are you going to believe

00:04:32.899 --> 00:04:33.579
 your feelings

00:04:33.579 --> 00:04:34.699
 are you going to believe

00:04:34.699 --> 00:04:35.319
 your thoughts

00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:36.379
 are you going to believe

00:04:36.379 --> 00:04:37.099
 what you see

00:04:37.099 --> 00:04:38.279
 or are you going to believe

00:04:38.279 --> 00:04:39.300
 what the word of God says

00:04:39.300 --> 00:04:40.560
 his word says

00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:41.579
 his unchanging

00:04:41.579 --> 00:04:43.000
 unshakable word

00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:43.300
 says

00:04:43.300 --> 00:04:44.300
 his commands

00:04:44.300 --> 00:04:45.420
 are not burdensome

00:04:45.420 --> 00:04:48.100
 and then in 2 Peter 1 verse 3

00:04:48.100 --> 00:04:49.519
 reading from the NIV

00:04:49.519 --> 00:04:49.959
 it says

00:04:49.959 --> 00:04:50.899
 his divine power

00:04:50.899 --> 00:04:51.839
 has given us

00:04:51.839 --> 00:04:52.920
 everything we need

00:04:52.920 --> 00:04:53.639
 for life

00:04:53.639 --> 00:04:54.360
 and for godliness

00:04:54.360 --> 00:04:55.680
 through our knowledge

00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:56.519
 of him who called us

00:04:56.519 --> 00:04:57.259
 by his own glory

00:04:57.259 --> 00:04:57.800
 and goodness

00:04:57.800 --> 00:04:59.459
 what has his divine power

00:04:59.459 --> 00:05:00.019
 given us

00:05:00.019 --> 00:05:01.839
 most of what we need

00:05:01.839 --> 00:05:03.060
 some of what we need

00:05:03.060 --> 00:05:04.319
 part of what we need

00:05:04.319 --> 00:05:05.560
 no

00:05:05.560 --> 00:05:07.439
 his divine power

00:05:07.439 --> 00:05:08.240
 has given us

00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:09.120
 everything

00:05:09.120 --> 00:05:10.779
 we need

00:05:10.779 --> 00:05:11.800
 for life

00:05:11.800 --> 00:05:13.099
 and for godliness

00:05:13.099 --> 00:05:14.500
 do you believe that

00:05:14.500 --> 00:05:15.040
 this morning

00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:16.779
 do you believe that

00:05:16.779 --> 00:05:18.459
 do you believe it

00:05:18.459 --> 00:05:19.259
 Monday morning

00:05:19.259 --> 00:05:22.459
 do you believe it

00:05:22.459 --> 00:05:23.219
 Friday morning

00:05:23.219 --> 00:05:24.240
 do you believe it

00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:24.819
 every day

00:05:24.819 --> 00:05:26.860
 how many times

00:05:26.860 --> 00:05:27.500
 do we wake up

00:05:27.500 --> 00:05:28.060
 and we'll sometimes

00:05:28.060 --> 00:05:28.879
 even say it out loud

00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:29.899
 I can't do this

00:05:29.899 --> 00:05:31.919
 right

00:05:31.919 --> 00:05:33.159
 oftentimes

00:05:33.159 --> 00:05:33.859
 Gina

00:05:33.859 --> 00:05:34.679
 does

00:05:34.679 --> 00:05:36.939
 is a dual

00:05:36.939 --> 00:05:37.419
 a lot of times

00:05:37.419 --> 00:05:38.239
 with people in their birth

00:05:38.239 --> 00:05:39.439
 and at some point in time

00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:40.199
 during their birth

00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:41.019
 the wife

00:05:41.019 --> 00:05:42.560
 the mom will say

00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:44.199
 I can't do this

00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:44.739
 right

00:05:44.739 --> 00:05:46.319
 I can't do this

00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:48.379
 but the truth is

00:05:48.379 --> 00:05:50.179
 this crazy thing

00:05:50.179 --> 00:05:51.879
 women do it all the time

00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:52.279
 right

00:05:52.279 --> 00:05:53.739
 they have babies

00:05:53.739 --> 00:05:54.620
 but at some point

00:05:54.620 --> 00:05:55.179
 in that process

00:05:55.179 --> 00:05:55.620
 they say

00:05:55.620 --> 00:05:56.859
 I can't do this

00:05:56.860 --> 00:05:58.580
 and if someone

00:05:58.580 --> 00:05:59.580
 looking from the outside in

00:05:59.580 --> 00:06:00.540
 says that's not true

00:06:00.540 --> 00:06:02.400
 you actually can

00:06:02.400 --> 00:06:03.920
 and you will

00:06:03.920 --> 00:06:05.920
 as many people

00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:06.960
 before you have

00:06:06.960 --> 00:06:08.819
 for thousands of years

00:06:08.819 --> 00:06:10.460
 and yet so often

00:06:10.460 --> 00:06:11.080
 we believe

00:06:11.080 --> 00:06:12.100
 what we feel

00:06:12.100 --> 00:06:13.560
 more than we believe

00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:14.360
 what is true

00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:15.879
 and I'm telling you

00:06:15.879 --> 00:06:17.520
 you have everything

00:06:17.520 --> 00:06:17.960
 you need

00:06:17.960 --> 00:06:18.639
 for life

00:06:18.639 --> 00:06:19.259
 and for godliness

00:06:19.259 --> 00:06:20.520
 and where does it come from

00:06:20.520 --> 00:06:21.500
 his divine power

00:06:21.500 --> 00:06:22.980
 God's power

00:06:22.980 --> 00:06:23.560
 has given you

00:06:23.560 --> 00:06:24.500
 everything you need

00:06:24.500 --> 00:06:25.680
 for life and godliness

00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:26.660
 do you believe that

00:06:26.660 --> 00:06:28.000
 you trust that

00:06:28.000 --> 00:06:29.520
 will you believe that

00:06:29.520 --> 00:06:30.220
 more than you believe

00:06:30.220 --> 00:06:30.780
 how you feel

00:06:30.780 --> 00:06:31.340
 will you believe that

00:06:31.340 --> 00:06:32.620
 more than what you see

00:06:32.620 --> 00:06:33.480
 with your eyes

00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:35.540
 okay

00:06:35.540 --> 00:06:36.340
 I want to look at

00:06:36.340 --> 00:06:37.420
 five things that drive

00:06:37.420 --> 00:06:38.120
 our capacity

00:06:38.120 --> 00:06:38.760
 okay

00:06:38.760 --> 00:06:40.460
 first one

00:06:40.460 --> 00:06:42.260
 gospel driven capacity

00:06:42.260 --> 00:06:43.040
 alright

00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:44.740
 gospel driven capacity

00:06:44.740 --> 00:06:46.340
 God's forgiveness

00:06:46.340 --> 00:06:49.280
 an awareness of

00:06:49.280 --> 00:06:49.960
 God's forgiveness

00:06:49.960 --> 00:06:51.280
 knowledge of and experience

00:06:51.280 --> 00:06:52.120
 of God's forgiveness

00:06:52.120 --> 00:06:54.080
 expands our capacity

00:06:54.080 --> 00:06:55.640
 Luke 7 47

00:06:55.639 --> 00:06:58.740
 Jesus says

00:06:58.740 --> 00:06:59.199
 her sins

00:06:59.199 --> 00:06:59.680
 which are many

00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:00.240
 are forgiven

00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:01.319
 for she loved much

00:07:01.319 --> 00:07:02.279
 but who forgives

00:07:02.279 --> 00:07:02.879
 little

00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:04.560
 loves little

00:07:04.560 --> 00:07:05.259
 who's been forgiven

00:07:05.259 --> 00:07:06.000
 little loves little

00:07:06.000 --> 00:07:07.399
 so who's been forgiven

00:07:07.399 --> 00:07:08.560
 much loves much

00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:09.939
 whoever's been forgiven

00:07:09.939 --> 00:07:10.979
 loves little

00:07:10.979 --> 00:07:11.680
 what does that mean

00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:12.000
 your

00:07:12.000 --> 00:07:13.819
 your capacity

00:07:13.819 --> 00:07:15.860
 to forgive

00:07:15.860 --> 00:07:17.240
 your capacity

00:07:17.240 --> 00:07:18.159
 to love

00:07:18.159 --> 00:07:19.560
 is directly

00:07:19.560 --> 00:07:20.279
 proportionate

00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:20.779
 to how much

00:07:20.779 --> 00:07:21.279
 you believe

00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:22.199
 you've been forgiven

00:07:22.199 --> 00:07:23.879
 does that make sense

00:07:23.879 --> 00:07:25.379
 so

00:07:25.379 --> 00:07:27.000
 when you feel like

00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:28.000
 I can't love

00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:29.120
 you need to go to

00:07:29.120 --> 00:07:29.959
 the well of forgiveness

00:07:29.959 --> 00:07:31.019
 and your

00:07:31.019 --> 00:07:32.180
 your capacity

00:07:32.180 --> 00:07:33.759
 will be expanded

00:07:33.759 --> 00:07:35.099
 sometimes

00:07:35.099 --> 00:07:35.779
 it's just like

00:07:35.779 --> 00:07:35.959
 you know

00:07:35.959 --> 00:07:36.779
 the story of the guy

00:07:36.779 --> 00:07:37.699
 who gets forgiven

00:07:37.699 --> 00:07:38.519
 so much

00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:39.079
 and then he's like

00:07:39.079 --> 00:07:40.139
 gets out of jail

00:07:40.139 --> 00:07:40.939
 and he goes to that guy

00:07:40.939 --> 00:07:41.319
 and he says

00:07:41.319 --> 00:07:43.199
 basically give me my five dollars

00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:45.099
 and if you don't pay me

00:07:45.099 --> 00:07:45.599
 back everything

00:07:45.599 --> 00:07:46.539
 I'm putting you in jail

00:07:46.539 --> 00:07:47.819
 you just think

00:07:47.819 --> 00:07:48.459
 what is wrong

00:07:48.459 --> 00:07:49.019
 with that guy

00:07:49.019 --> 00:07:51.219
 he lacks the capacity

00:07:51.220 --> 00:07:51.820
 to love

00:07:51.820 --> 00:07:52.760
 why

00:07:52.760 --> 00:07:54.260
 because he did not realize

00:07:54.260 --> 00:07:55.680
 and internalize

00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:56.620
 how much he'd been forgiven

00:07:56.620 --> 00:07:57.720
 it wasn't even

00:07:57.720 --> 00:07:59.700
 excuse me

00:07:59.700 --> 00:08:01.760
 wasn't even that he wasn't

00:08:01.760 --> 00:08:02.360
 forgiven a lot

00:08:02.360 --> 00:08:03.440
 is that he couldn't

00:08:03.440 --> 00:08:04.640
 he didn't realize it

00:08:04.640 --> 00:08:06.140
 he didn't internalize it

00:08:06.140 --> 00:08:07.440
 he didn't experience it

00:08:07.440 --> 00:08:08.700
 and this can happen

00:08:08.700 --> 00:08:10.140
 as us as Christians

00:08:10.140 --> 00:08:10.880
 it's not that you

00:08:10.880 --> 00:08:12.200
 haven't been forgiven a lot

00:08:12.200 --> 00:08:15.560
 it's that we just don't

00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:16.220
 believe it

00:08:16.220 --> 00:08:17.620
 we don't experience it

00:08:17.620 --> 00:08:19.200
 or we experience it

00:08:19.200 --> 00:08:19.760
 in the past

00:08:19.759 --> 00:08:21.420
 but we're not experiencing it now

00:08:21.420 --> 00:08:23.459
 we've forgotten

00:08:23.459 --> 00:08:24.219
 that's just why we take

00:08:24.219 --> 00:08:24.759
 the Lord's table

00:08:24.759 --> 00:08:25.800
 every week

00:08:25.800 --> 00:08:26.120
 right

00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:27.480
 to remember what we've been

00:08:27.480 --> 00:08:28.120
 forgiven of

00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:28.980
 those have been forgiven

00:08:28.980 --> 00:08:29.740
 much love much

00:08:29.740 --> 00:08:30.439
 those have been forgiven

00:08:30.439 --> 00:08:31.480
 little love little

00:08:31.480 --> 00:08:32.399
 Luke 7 47

00:08:32.399 --> 00:08:35.919
 God's mercy expands capacity

00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:37.419
 Romans 12 verse 1

00:08:37.419 --> 00:08:38.399
 and then he says

00:08:38.399 --> 00:08:39.759
 I urge you brothers and sisters

00:08:39.759 --> 00:08:42.039
 in view of God's mercy

00:08:42.039 --> 00:08:43.439
 to offer your bodies

00:08:43.439 --> 00:08:44.559
 as living sacrifice

00:08:44.559 --> 00:08:46.379
 again it doesn't just say

00:08:46.379 --> 00:08:47.500
 sometimes we think

00:08:47.500 --> 00:08:48.399
 oh I gotta offer my body

00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:49.100
 as a living sacrifice

00:08:49.100 --> 00:08:50.100
 I have to sacrifice

00:08:50.100 --> 00:08:51.500
 I have to give up things

00:08:51.500 --> 00:08:53.899
 and we forget the first part

00:08:53.899 --> 00:08:54.440
 of the verse

00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:56.840
 it doesn't just say

00:08:56.840 --> 00:08:57.779
 offer your bodies

00:08:57.779 --> 00:08:58.399
 as a living sacrifice

00:08:58.399 --> 00:08:59.480
 it says in view

00:08:59.480 --> 00:09:00.320
 of God's mercy

00:09:00.320 --> 00:09:01.899
 if you're trying to offer

00:09:01.899 --> 00:09:03.340
 your body as a living sacrifice

00:09:03.340 --> 00:09:04.759
 and God's mercy

00:09:04.759 --> 00:09:05.860
 isn't in your view

00:09:05.860 --> 00:09:07.399
 you're gonna

00:09:07.399 --> 00:09:08.120
 you're gonna have

00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:09.139
 the strong sense that

00:09:09.139 --> 00:09:10.340
 I can't do this

00:09:10.340 --> 00:09:12.059
 I can't sacrifice

00:09:12.059 --> 00:09:13.519
 I don't want to sacrifice

00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:14.820
 I can't sacrifice

00:09:14.820 --> 00:09:16.140
 what's the problem

00:09:16.140 --> 00:09:18.860
 God's mercy isn't in view

00:09:18.860 --> 00:09:20.660
 when God's mercy is in view

00:09:20.660 --> 00:09:21.820
 you all of a sudden

00:09:21.820 --> 00:09:22.840
 have this gumption

00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:24.420
 this motivation

00:09:24.420 --> 00:09:25.980
 to sacrifice

00:09:25.980 --> 00:09:27.300
 because of how much

00:09:27.300 --> 00:09:28.420
 he sacrificed for you

00:09:28.420 --> 00:09:30.500
 in view of God's mercy

00:09:30.500 --> 00:09:31.460
 offer your bodies

00:09:31.460 --> 00:09:32.540
 as living sacrifices

00:09:32.540 --> 00:09:33.520
 okay

00:09:33.520 --> 00:09:34.520
 God's mercy

00:09:34.520 --> 00:09:35.320
 expands

00:09:35.320 --> 00:09:36.560
 our capacity

00:09:36.560 --> 00:09:38.620
 God's grace

00:09:38.620 --> 00:09:39.800
 expands our capacity

00:09:39.800 --> 00:09:40.940
 Titus chapter 2

00:09:40.940 --> 00:09:41.940
 11 to 12

00:09:41.940 --> 00:09:56.020
 how often do we try to live

00:09:56.020 --> 00:09:57.100
 self-controlled

00:09:57.100 --> 00:09:57.660
 upright

00:09:57.660 --> 00:09:58.280
 godly lives

00:09:58.280 --> 00:09:59.180
 in this present age

00:09:59.180 --> 00:10:00.760
 without being motivated

00:10:00.760 --> 00:10:01.540
 by the fact that

00:10:01.540 --> 00:10:02.180
 God loves us

00:10:02.180 --> 00:10:02.640
 when we were

00:10:02.640 --> 00:10:03.800
 not self-controlled

00:10:03.800 --> 00:10:05.260
 when we were not

00:10:05.260 --> 00:10:05.800
 upright

00:10:05.800 --> 00:10:06.800
 and not godly

00:10:06.800 --> 00:10:09.000
 your ability

00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:09.960
 your power

00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:11.580
 to live self-controlled

00:10:11.580 --> 00:10:12.200
 and godly

00:10:12.200 --> 00:10:12.639
 and upright

00:10:12.639 --> 00:10:13.500
 in this present age

00:10:13.500 --> 00:10:15.180
 is directly proportionate

00:10:15.180 --> 00:10:16.019
 to your revelation

00:10:16.019 --> 00:10:16.900
 of how much

00:10:16.900 --> 00:10:17.600
 he loved you

00:10:17.600 --> 00:10:18.940
 and how he died for you

00:10:18.940 --> 00:10:19.840
 when none of those

00:10:19.840 --> 00:10:20.420
 things were there

00:10:20.420 --> 00:10:22.740
 that he loved you

00:10:22.740 --> 00:10:23.460
 for who you are

00:10:23.460 --> 00:10:24.360
 not who you should be

00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:24.940
 because none of us

00:10:24.940 --> 00:10:25.800
 was as we should be

00:10:25.800 --> 00:10:27.860
 he loved us

00:10:27.860 --> 00:10:28.540
 because

00:10:28.540 --> 00:10:29.740
 he is love

00:10:29.740 --> 00:10:30.900
 because he is God

00:10:30.900 --> 00:10:32.400
 and he shows mercy

00:10:32.400 --> 00:10:33.300
 in who he shows mercy

00:10:33.300 --> 00:10:34.540
 not because we were

00:10:34.540 --> 00:10:36.340
 worthy of mercy

00:10:36.340 --> 00:10:37.879
 we were not

00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:39.899
 but if you try to do

00:10:39.899 --> 00:10:40.620
 these things

00:10:40.620 --> 00:10:42.200
 and God's mercy

00:10:42.200 --> 00:10:42.759
 isn't in view

00:10:42.759 --> 00:10:43.820
 or God's grace

00:10:43.820 --> 00:10:44.519
 is not

00:10:44.519 --> 00:10:45.860
 your motivating factor

00:10:45.860 --> 00:10:48.080
 you'll burn out

00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:49.980
 you won't have the capacity

00:10:49.980 --> 00:10:51.399
 you won't have it it takes

00:10:51.399 --> 00:10:52.360
 but God's grace

00:10:52.360 --> 00:10:53.419
 expands capacity

00:10:53.419 --> 00:10:54.580
 God's love

00:10:54.580 --> 00:10:55.639
 expands capacity

00:10:55.639 --> 00:10:56.639
 1 John 4 19

00:10:56.639 --> 00:10:57.740
 we love

00:10:57.740 --> 00:10:59.120
 because

00:10:59.120 --> 00:11:01.340
 he first loved us

00:11:01.340 --> 00:11:02.139
 okay

00:11:02.139 --> 00:11:03.799
 if you're trying to love

00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:04.779
 which is obedience

00:11:04.779 --> 00:11:05.799
 1 John 5 verse 3

00:11:05.799 --> 00:11:07.039
 says this is love for God

00:11:07.039 --> 00:11:08.599
 to obey his commands

00:11:08.599 --> 00:11:09.899
 you're trying to obey

00:11:09.899 --> 00:11:10.360
 his commands

00:11:10.360 --> 00:11:11.379
 you're trying to love God

00:11:11.379 --> 00:11:12.819
 oh God I want to love you more

00:11:12.819 --> 00:11:13.539
 and it's just like

00:11:13.539 --> 00:11:15.099
 but I'm losing motivation

00:11:15.099 --> 00:11:16.120
 I'm losing energy

00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:17.139
 I'm losing strength

00:11:17.139 --> 00:11:19.000
 well are you doing it

00:11:19.000 --> 00:11:20.480
 because he first loved you

00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:22.559
 or are you just trying to do it

00:11:22.559 --> 00:11:23.099
 are you doing

00:11:23.099 --> 00:11:24.579
 are you trying to love God

00:11:24.579 --> 00:11:25.319
 to get God

00:11:25.319 --> 00:11:26.219
 or are you getting God

00:11:26.219 --> 00:11:27.319
 so that you can love God

00:11:27.319 --> 00:11:28.819
 you got it

00:11:28.819 --> 00:11:30.579
 you got it all twisted up

00:11:30.579 --> 00:11:30.779
 and

00:11:30.779 --> 00:11:32.379
 mixed up

00:11:32.379 --> 00:11:34.039
 if you're trying to love God

00:11:34.039 --> 00:11:35.599
 based off of yourself

00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:37.920
 the motivating factor

00:11:37.920 --> 00:11:39.399
 is God's love for you

00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:40.980
 do you know how he loves you

00:11:40.980 --> 00:11:41.920
 are you meditating

00:11:41.920 --> 00:11:42.620
 on how he loves you

00:11:42.620 --> 00:11:43.519
 are you experiencing

00:11:43.519 --> 00:11:44.279
 how much he loves you

00:11:44.279 --> 00:11:45.379
 do you wake up in the morning

00:11:45.379 --> 00:11:46.320
 and instead of saying

00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:47.320
 I can't do this

00:11:47.320 --> 00:11:48.200
 you could say

00:11:48.200 --> 00:11:48.779
 God

00:11:48.779 --> 00:11:49.860
 remind me

00:11:49.860 --> 00:11:50.879
 how much you love me

00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:52.420
 I've forgotten

00:11:52.420 --> 00:11:53.759
 once again

00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:55.480
 have mercy on me

00:11:55.480 --> 00:11:57.019
 I am a forgetful sinner

00:11:57.019 --> 00:11:59.120
 and then

00:11:59.120 --> 00:11:59.759
 you know that

00:11:59.759 --> 00:12:00.340
 he loves you

00:12:00.340 --> 00:12:01.060
 in that moment

00:12:01.060 --> 00:12:01.720
 for who you are

00:12:01.720 --> 00:12:02.660
 not who you should be

00:12:02.659 --> 00:12:03.379
 and it

00:12:03.379 --> 00:12:05.079
 love in your heart

00:12:05.079 --> 00:12:05.919
 wells up for him

00:12:05.919 --> 00:12:06.939
 and you want to obey him

00:12:06.939 --> 00:12:08.779
 desire comes from that place

00:12:08.779 --> 00:12:10.939
 2 Corinthians 5 14

00:12:10.939 --> 00:12:13.259
 says Christ's love compels us

00:12:13.259 --> 00:12:14.799
 there's a compelling nature

00:12:14.799 --> 00:12:15.620
 to his love

00:12:15.620 --> 00:12:16.779
 when you see it

00:12:16.779 --> 00:12:17.439
 you view it

00:12:17.439 --> 00:12:18.379
 you experience it

00:12:18.379 --> 00:12:19.059
 okay

00:12:19.059 --> 00:12:19.699
 especially

00:12:19.699 --> 00:12:20.799
 when you believe

00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:22.219
 his love never fails

00:12:22.219 --> 00:12:23.860
 okay

00:12:23.860 --> 00:12:26.219
 Psalm 135 verse 5

00:12:26.219 --> 00:12:27.559
 but I trust

00:12:27.559 --> 00:12:28.100
 in your

00:12:28.100 --> 00:12:29.679
 unfailing love

00:12:29.679 --> 00:12:30.939
 my heart rejoices

00:12:30.940 --> 00:12:31.840
 in your salvation

00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:32.760
 do you believe

00:12:32.760 --> 00:12:33.360
 that God's love

00:12:33.360 --> 00:12:34.060
 is unfailing

00:12:34.060 --> 00:12:36.340
 is that not

00:12:36.340 --> 00:12:37.380
 what our fear is

00:12:37.380 --> 00:12:37.800
 when we say

00:12:37.800 --> 00:12:38.720
 we don't have capacity

00:12:38.720 --> 00:12:39.680
 is that I don't know

00:12:39.680 --> 00:12:40.360
 if God's love

00:12:40.360 --> 00:12:41.000
 will be enough

00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:41.640
 I don't know

00:12:41.640 --> 00:12:42.400
 if it's going to

00:12:42.400 --> 00:12:43.640
 be there for me

00:12:43.640 --> 00:12:45.260
 Psalm 26 1 to 3

00:12:45.260 --> 00:12:46.540
 I've trusted in the Lord

00:12:46.540 --> 00:12:47.920
 and have not faltered

00:12:47.920 --> 00:12:49.100
 test me Lord

00:12:49.100 --> 00:12:49.780
 and try me

00:12:49.780 --> 00:12:50.720
 examine my heart

00:12:50.720 --> 00:12:51.300
 and my mind

00:12:51.300 --> 00:12:52.820
 for I have always

00:12:52.820 --> 00:12:53.760
 been mindful

00:12:53.760 --> 00:12:55.400
 of your unfailing love

00:12:55.400 --> 00:12:56.440
 and have lived

00:12:56.440 --> 00:12:57.360
 in reliance

00:12:57.360 --> 00:12:58.580
 on your faithfulness

00:12:58.580 --> 00:13:00.220
 did you hear that

00:13:00.220 --> 00:13:02.180
 is that us

00:13:02.180 --> 00:13:03.860
 I have always

00:13:03.860 --> 00:13:04.680
 been mindful

00:13:04.680 --> 00:13:06.220
 of your unfailing love

00:13:06.220 --> 00:13:07.160
 and have lived

00:13:07.160 --> 00:13:07.779
 in reliance

00:13:07.779 --> 00:13:08.820
 on your faithfulness

00:13:08.820 --> 00:13:09.820
 saying you don't

00:13:09.820 --> 00:13:10.519
 have capacity

00:13:10.519 --> 00:13:11.360
 is like saying

00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:12.139
 God's love

00:13:12.139 --> 00:13:12.920
 is going to fail me

00:13:12.920 --> 00:13:16.279
 I can't depend

00:13:16.279 --> 00:13:17.440
 on his faithfulness

00:13:17.440 --> 00:13:18.879
 he's not faithful

00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:20.279
 his love fails

00:13:20.279 --> 00:13:20.980
 no

00:13:20.980 --> 00:13:22.399
 I have always

00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:23.120
 been mindful

00:13:23.120 --> 00:13:24.379
 of your unfailing love

00:13:24.379 --> 00:13:25.060
 and I have lived

00:13:25.060 --> 00:13:25.600
 in reliance

00:13:25.600 --> 00:13:26.500
 on your faithfulness

00:13:26.500 --> 00:13:27.759
 therefore I believe

00:13:27.759 --> 00:13:28.680
 I have everything

00:13:28.680 --> 00:13:29.300
 I need for life

00:13:29.299 --> 00:13:29.799
 in godliness

00:13:29.799 --> 00:13:31.519
 therefore I believe

00:13:31.519 --> 00:13:32.519
 I have the capacity

00:13:32.519 --> 00:13:33.719
 because your love

00:13:33.719 --> 00:13:34.819
 has never failed me

00:13:34.819 --> 00:13:36.039
 and your faithfulness

00:13:36.039 --> 00:13:37.779
 can always be counted on

00:13:37.779 --> 00:13:40.439
 Psalm 32 verse 10

00:13:40.439 --> 00:13:41.719
 says many are the woes

00:13:41.719 --> 00:13:42.279
 of the wicked

00:13:42.279 --> 00:13:44.399
 but the Lord's

00:13:44.399 --> 00:13:45.639
 unfailing love

00:13:45.639 --> 00:13:47.179
 surrounds the one

00:13:47.179 --> 00:13:48.159
 who trusts in him

00:13:48.159 --> 00:13:50.779
 what are you trusting in

00:13:50.779 --> 00:13:52.199
 maybe the reason

00:13:52.199 --> 00:13:53.019
 you feel so

00:13:53.019 --> 00:13:54.339
 incapacitated

00:13:54.339 --> 00:13:56.120
 is because you woke up

00:13:56.120 --> 00:13:57.059
 trusting in yourself

00:13:57.059 --> 00:13:58.959
 and your tank

00:13:58.959 --> 00:13:59.559
 was already low

00:13:59.559 --> 00:14:00.219
 to begin with

00:14:00.219 --> 00:14:00.899
 you went to bed

00:14:00.899 --> 00:14:01.719
 with a low tank

00:14:01.719 --> 00:14:02.699
 you think you're

00:14:02.699 --> 00:14:03.239
 going to wake up

00:14:03.239 --> 00:14:04.599
 with a much higher tank

00:14:04.599 --> 00:14:05.199
 just because you got

00:14:05.199 --> 00:14:06.039
 a little bit of sleep

00:14:06.039 --> 00:14:07.139
 sleep might fill

00:14:07.139 --> 00:14:07.959
 your physical tank

00:14:07.959 --> 00:14:08.539
 but it ain't going to

00:14:08.539 --> 00:14:09.619
 fill your spiritual tank

00:14:09.619 --> 00:14:11.459
 you need to rest

00:14:11.459 --> 00:14:12.339
 and trust

00:14:12.339 --> 00:14:13.259
 in the unfailing

00:14:13.259 --> 00:14:14.079
 love of the father

00:14:14.079 --> 00:14:16.239
 do you wake

00:14:16.239 --> 00:14:16.939
 and praise him

00:14:16.939 --> 00:14:17.519
 and look to him

00:14:17.519 --> 00:14:18.119
 and say God

00:14:18.119 --> 00:14:19.139
 my love fails

00:14:19.139 --> 00:14:20.419
 my strength fails

00:14:20.419 --> 00:14:23.159
 my promises fail

00:14:23.159 --> 00:14:25.539
 everything I look to

00:14:25.539 --> 00:14:25.959
 fails

00:14:25.959 --> 00:14:26.959
 you are the only one

00:14:26.959 --> 00:14:27.719
 who is unfailing

00:14:27.719 --> 00:14:29.559
 and the Lord's

00:14:29.559 --> 00:14:30.219
 unfailing love

00:14:30.219 --> 00:14:30.879
 surrounds the one

00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:31.659
 who trusts in him

00:14:31.659 --> 00:14:32.319
 if you awake

00:14:32.319 --> 00:14:33.120
 trusting in him

00:14:33.120 --> 00:14:33.740
 say God

00:14:33.740 --> 00:14:34.379
 I must trust

00:14:34.379 --> 00:14:35.379
 in your unfailing love

00:14:35.379 --> 00:14:36.519
 I cannot trust

00:14:36.519 --> 00:14:37.500
 in my ability today

00:14:37.500 --> 00:14:38.579
 it will not get me

00:14:38.579 --> 00:14:38.879
 through

00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:40.620
 it will not give me

00:14:40.620 --> 00:14:41.319
 the capacity

00:14:41.319 --> 00:14:42.559
 but his love will

00:14:42.559 --> 00:14:44.339
 Psalm 33

00:14:44.339 --> 00:14:46.219
 18 to 22

00:14:46.219 --> 00:14:47.259
 the eyes of the Lord

00:14:47.259 --> 00:14:48.179
 are on those

00:14:48.179 --> 00:14:48.980
 who fear him

00:14:48.980 --> 00:14:50.740
 on those whose hope

00:14:50.740 --> 00:14:53.420
 is in his unfailing love

00:14:53.420 --> 00:14:54.759
 to deliver them

00:14:54.759 --> 00:14:55.279
 from death

00:14:55.279 --> 00:14:56.100
 and keep them alive

00:14:56.100 --> 00:14:56.620
 in famine

00:14:56.620 --> 00:14:58.019
 we wait in hope

00:14:58.019 --> 00:14:58.639
 for the Lord

00:14:58.639 --> 00:14:59.960
 he is our help

00:14:59.960 --> 00:15:00.639
 and our shield

00:15:00.639 --> 00:15:02.060
 in him our hearts rejoice

00:15:02.060 --> 00:15:03.420
 for we trust

00:15:03.420 --> 00:15:04.580
 in his holy name

00:15:04.580 --> 00:15:06.960
 may your unfailing love

00:15:06.960 --> 00:15:07.860
 be with us

00:15:07.860 --> 00:15:08.320
 Lord

00:15:08.320 --> 00:15:09.680
 even as we put

00:15:09.680 --> 00:15:10.340
 our hope

00:15:10.340 --> 00:15:11.159
 in you

00:15:11.159 --> 00:15:13.180
 put our hope

00:15:13.180 --> 00:15:14.279
 in his unfailing love

00:15:14.279 --> 00:15:15.820
 Psalm 147

00:15:15.820 --> 00:15:16.399
 verse 11

00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:17.320
 says the Lord

00:15:17.320 --> 00:15:18.159
 delights in those

00:15:18.159 --> 00:15:18.879
 who fear him

00:15:18.879 --> 00:15:20.000
 who put their hope

00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:21.200
 in his unfailing love

00:15:21.200 --> 00:15:22.679
 when's the last time

00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:23.379
 you experienced

00:15:23.379 --> 00:15:24.100
 the delight

00:15:24.100 --> 00:15:24.759
 of knowing

00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:25.659
 that God

00:15:25.659 --> 00:15:26.980
 delights in you

00:15:26.980 --> 00:15:27.720
 putting your hope

00:15:27.720 --> 00:15:28.779
 in his unfailing love

00:15:28.779 --> 00:15:30.820
 not only is his love

00:15:30.820 --> 00:15:31.340
 unfailing

00:15:31.340 --> 00:15:32.840
 but when you put your hope

00:15:32.840 --> 00:15:34.259
 in his unfailing love

00:15:34.259 --> 00:15:35.539
 he delights in you

00:15:35.539 --> 00:15:36.480
 he likes that

00:15:36.480 --> 00:15:37.519
 he enjoys that

00:15:37.519 --> 00:15:39.580
 not only can you

00:15:39.580 --> 00:15:40.320
 experience

00:15:40.320 --> 00:15:41.279
 his unfailing love

00:15:41.279 --> 00:15:42.259
 but you can experience

00:15:42.259 --> 00:15:42.899
 his delight

00:15:42.899 --> 00:15:43.659
 in you trusting

00:15:43.659 --> 00:15:44.840
 in his unfailing love

00:15:44.840 --> 00:15:45.500
 it's like

00:15:45.500 --> 00:15:46.299
 it's a double

00:15:46.299 --> 00:15:48.579
 it's a double blessing

00:15:48.579 --> 00:15:50.120
 his unfailing love

00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:51.079
 is already

00:15:51.079 --> 00:15:53.000
 pretty high

00:15:53.000 --> 00:15:53.620
 on the list

00:15:53.620 --> 00:15:54.299
 it's love

00:15:54.299 --> 00:15:55.059
 that doesn't fail

00:15:55.059 --> 00:15:56.299
 but then when you hope

00:15:56.299 --> 00:15:57.339
 in unfailing love

00:15:57.339 --> 00:15:58.039
 which is like

00:15:58.039 --> 00:15:58.459
 the biggest

00:15:58.459 --> 00:15:59.379
 no-brainer ever

00:15:59.379 --> 00:16:00.939
 how often

00:16:00.939 --> 00:16:01.559
 do we hope

00:16:01.559 --> 00:16:02.479
 in things that fail

00:16:02.479 --> 00:16:03.819
 so it's just like

00:16:03.819 --> 00:16:04.159
 man

00:16:04.159 --> 00:16:06.459
 it seems so easy

00:16:06.459 --> 00:16:06.939
 to hope

00:16:06.939 --> 00:16:07.819
 in things that fail

00:16:07.819 --> 00:16:08.559
 but I have such

00:16:08.559 --> 00:16:09.219
 a hard time

00:16:09.219 --> 00:16:10.099
 hoping in the

00:16:10.099 --> 00:16:11.000
 unfailing love

00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:11.979
 and then you think

00:16:11.979 --> 00:16:12.339
 about that

00:16:12.339 --> 00:16:12.740
 you think

00:16:12.740 --> 00:16:13.399
 what the heck

00:16:13.399 --> 00:16:13.980
 am I thinking

00:16:13.980 --> 00:16:16.019
 why is it so hard

00:16:16.019 --> 00:16:16.740
 to hope

00:16:16.740 --> 00:16:17.200
 in something

00:16:17.200 --> 00:16:17.759
 unfailing

00:16:17.759 --> 00:16:18.840
 and why do I so

00:16:18.840 --> 00:16:19.779
 often gravitate

00:16:19.779 --> 00:16:20.440
 for that which

00:16:20.440 --> 00:16:21.000
 fails

00:16:21.000 --> 00:16:23.360
 the fact that

00:16:23.360 --> 00:16:24.000
 God would then

00:16:24.000 --> 00:16:24.899
 delight in me

00:16:24.899 --> 00:16:25.879
 hoping in something

00:16:25.879 --> 00:16:26.720
 that's unfailing

00:16:26.720 --> 00:16:27.919
 how hard is it

00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:28.700
 to hope in something

00:16:28.700 --> 00:16:29.240
 unfailing

00:16:29.240 --> 00:16:30.980
 it's only hard

00:16:30.980 --> 00:16:31.779
 if you don't see it

00:16:31.779 --> 00:16:32.460
 you don't believe it

00:16:32.460 --> 00:16:33.139
 you don't know it

00:16:33.139 --> 00:16:34.180
 you haven't experienced it

00:16:34.180 --> 00:16:34.700
 and you're not

00:16:34.700 --> 00:16:36.480
 saturating yourself

00:16:36.480 --> 00:16:37.120
 in this love

00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:39.460
 Bible says

00:16:39.460 --> 00:16:40.120
 keep yourself

00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:41.200
 in the love of God

00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:43.259
 keep yourself

00:16:43.259 --> 00:16:44.160
 in the love of God

00:16:44.160 --> 00:16:45.920
 and then 1 Corinthians

00:16:45.920 --> 00:16:46.640
 13 8

00:16:46.640 --> 00:16:47.940
 love never

00:16:47.940 --> 00:16:48.660
 fails

00:16:48.660 --> 00:16:50.340
 do you believe that

00:16:50.340 --> 00:16:52.300
 do you believe that

00:16:52.300 --> 00:16:52.820
 this morning

00:16:52.820 --> 00:16:53.480
 do you believe it

00:16:53.480 --> 00:16:53.960
 every day

00:16:53.960 --> 00:16:56.320
 and are you a

00:16:56.320 --> 00:16:57.220
 trumpeter of this

00:16:57.220 --> 00:16:58.240
 what about to your

00:16:58.240 --> 00:16:58.900
 brother and sister

00:16:58.900 --> 00:16:59.700
 on the days when he

00:16:59.700 --> 00:17:00.759
 he or she doesn't

00:17:00.759 --> 00:17:01.240
 believe it

00:17:01.240 --> 00:17:02.160
 are you telling

00:17:02.160 --> 00:17:03.060
 him or her

00:17:03.060 --> 00:17:03.920
 God's love never

00:17:03.920 --> 00:17:04.440
 fails

00:17:04.440 --> 00:17:06.160
 God's love never

00:17:06.160 --> 00:17:06.680
 fails

00:17:06.680 --> 00:17:07.880
 you failed

00:17:07.880 --> 00:17:09.740
 your promise

00:17:09.740 --> 00:17:10.180
 failed

00:17:10.180 --> 00:17:11.220
 your strength

00:17:11.220 --> 00:17:11.640
 failed

00:17:11.640 --> 00:17:13.180
 your plans

00:17:13.180 --> 00:17:13.640
 failed

00:17:13.640 --> 00:17:14.779
 God's love

00:17:14.779 --> 00:17:15.380
 never fails

00:17:15.380 --> 00:17:16.519
 God's love

00:17:16.519 --> 00:17:17.180
 never fails

00:17:17.180 --> 00:17:19.000
 this is true

00:17:19.000 --> 00:17:20.220
 this is true

00:17:20.220 --> 00:17:21.920
 number two

00:17:21.920 --> 00:17:23.960
 rest driven

00:17:23.960 --> 00:17:24.740
 capacity

00:17:24.740 --> 00:17:26.940
 okay there's rest

00:17:26.940 --> 00:17:27.860
 in carrying his

00:17:27.860 --> 00:17:28.320
 yoke

00:17:28.320 --> 00:17:30.019
 Matthew 11

00:17:30.019 --> 00:17:30.900
 28 to 30

00:17:30.900 --> 00:17:31.480
 right we all

00:17:31.480 --> 00:17:32.080
 know this verse

00:17:32.080 --> 00:17:33.240
 come to me

00:17:33.240 --> 00:17:34.920
 all who labor

00:17:34.920 --> 00:17:36.000
 and are heavy

00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:36.380
 laden

00:17:36.380 --> 00:17:37.279
 and I will give

00:17:37.279 --> 00:17:37.980
 you rest

00:17:37.980 --> 00:17:39.759
 not I might

00:17:39.759 --> 00:17:40.819
 not hopefully

00:17:40.819 --> 00:17:41.299
 you will

00:17:41.299 --> 00:17:42.799
 man that would

00:17:42.799 --> 00:17:43.380
 be really nice

00:17:43.380 --> 00:17:43.920
 if you did

00:17:43.920 --> 00:17:46.059
 come to me

00:17:46.059 --> 00:17:47.220
 all who labor

00:17:47.220 --> 00:17:48.019
 and are heavy

00:17:48.019 --> 00:17:48.400
 laden

00:17:48.400 --> 00:17:48.799
 are you

00:17:48.799 --> 00:17:49.500
 are you heavy

00:17:49.500 --> 00:17:50.640
 are you laboring

00:17:50.640 --> 00:17:51.259
 are you tired

00:17:51.259 --> 00:17:51.799
 are you weary

00:17:51.799 --> 00:17:53.019
 he says come to

00:17:53.019 --> 00:17:53.400
 me

00:17:53.400 --> 00:17:54.940
 come to me

00:17:54.940 --> 00:17:55.960
 all who labor

00:17:55.960 --> 00:17:56.559
 and are heavy

00:17:56.559 --> 00:17:56.900
 laden

00:17:56.900 --> 00:17:59.259
 I will give

00:17:59.259 --> 00:18:00.000
 you rest

00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:00.779
 I will give

00:18:00.779 --> 00:18:01.400
 you rest

00:18:01.400 --> 00:18:04.220
 and the devil

00:18:04.220 --> 00:18:04.920
 whispers in your

00:18:04.920 --> 00:18:05.519
 he's not going

00:18:05.519 --> 00:18:06.300
 to give you rest

00:18:06.300 --> 00:18:07.400
 it's not restful

00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:08.160
 to come to him

00:18:08.160 --> 00:18:09.600
 it's burdensome

00:18:09.600 --> 00:18:11.440
 don't believe it

00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:12.800
 don't believe it

00:18:12.800 --> 00:18:13.680
 that's not true

00:18:13.680 --> 00:18:15.440
 you tell that lie

00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:16.240
 to go back to hell

00:18:16.240 --> 00:18:17.120
 where it came from

00:18:17.120 --> 00:18:18.560
 that's where it

00:18:18.560 --> 00:18:19.140
 belongs

00:18:19.140 --> 00:18:20.960
 and you quote the

00:18:20.960 --> 00:18:21.660
 scriptures to the

00:18:21.660 --> 00:18:22.300
 devil just like

00:18:22.300 --> 00:18:23.000
 Jesus did

00:18:23.000 --> 00:18:24.440
 you say no

00:18:24.440 --> 00:18:25.120
 that's not true

00:18:25.120 --> 00:18:26.780
 he said come to me

00:18:26.780 --> 00:18:27.400
 all you are weary

00:18:27.400 --> 00:18:27.920
 and heavy laden

00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:28.980
 I am weary

00:18:28.980 --> 00:18:30.400
 I am heavy laden

00:18:30.400 --> 00:18:32.080
 he said you will

00:18:32.080 --> 00:18:32.820
 give me rest

00:18:32.820 --> 00:18:33.780
 he didn't put any

00:18:33.780 --> 00:18:34.680
 conditions on it

00:18:34.680 --> 00:18:35.280
 he didn't say

00:18:35.280 --> 00:18:36.259
 if you got your life

00:18:36.259 --> 00:18:37.420
 all put together

00:18:37.420 --> 00:18:38.820
 if you have all the

00:18:38.820 --> 00:18:39.440
 faith in the world

00:18:39.440 --> 00:18:40.440
 if you made sure

00:18:40.440 --> 00:18:41.060
 you had the right

00:18:41.060 --> 00:18:42.140
 amount of quiet time

00:18:42.140 --> 00:18:43.160
 and you didn't talk

00:18:43.160 --> 00:18:44.080
 mean or harsh

00:18:44.080 --> 00:18:44.920
 to your spouse

00:18:44.920 --> 00:18:46.140
 no he said

00:18:46.140 --> 00:18:47.300
 come to me

00:18:47.300 --> 00:18:48.660
 that was the requirement

00:18:48.660 --> 00:18:49.780
 that was what

00:18:49.780 --> 00:18:50.440
 you needed to do

00:18:50.440 --> 00:18:52.519
 just come to him

00:18:52.519 --> 00:18:53.720
 you might be

00:18:53.720 --> 00:18:54.920
 dragging yourself there

00:18:54.920 --> 00:18:55.740
 you might be

00:18:55.740 --> 00:18:56.880
 limping all the way there

00:18:56.880 --> 00:18:57.759
 you might have

00:18:57.759 --> 00:18:58.640
 barely any faith

00:18:58.640 --> 00:18:59.120
 to get there

00:18:59.120 --> 00:18:59.780
 but you have enough

00:18:59.779 --> 00:19:00.700
 just to come

00:19:00.700 --> 00:19:01.619
 and that's all

00:19:01.619 --> 00:19:02.279
 that he requires

00:19:02.279 --> 00:19:02.720
 of you

00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:04.279
 and he says

00:19:04.279 --> 00:19:05.579
 I will give you rest

00:19:05.579 --> 00:19:08.019
 not I might give you rest

00:19:08.019 --> 00:19:09.779
 you gotta count on it

00:19:09.779 --> 00:19:10.740
 you gotta count on it

00:19:10.740 --> 00:19:11.180
 like your life

00:19:11.180 --> 00:19:11.859
 depends on it

00:19:11.859 --> 00:19:12.980
 because it does

00:19:12.980 --> 00:19:14.960
 because without it

00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:15.759
 you're weary

00:19:15.759 --> 00:19:16.799
 without it

00:19:16.799 --> 00:19:17.279
 you don't have the

00:19:17.279 --> 00:19:18.220
 strength to go on

00:19:18.220 --> 00:19:19.480
 and you think

00:19:19.480 --> 00:19:20.339
 life gets easier

00:19:20.339 --> 00:19:21.660
 you think

00:19:21.660 --> 00:19:21.960
 oh

00:19:21.960 --> 00:19:22.379
 you know

00:19:22.379 --> 00:19:23.079
 just the passage

00:19:23.079 --> 00:19:23.599
 of time

00:19:23.599 --> 00:19:24.299
 will make my life

00:19:24.299 --> 00:19:24.700
 easier

00:19:24.700 --> 00:19:25.539
 when has that

00:19:25.539 --> 00:19:26.240
 ever been true

00:19:26.240 --> 00:19:27.639
 that's never

00:19:27.639 --> 00:19:28.240
 been true

00:19:28.240 --> 00:19:30.500
 more things

00:19:30.500 --> 00:19:31.440
 keep coming on

00:19:31.440 --> 00:19:33.079
 do you believe

00:19:33.079 --> 00:19:34.039
 his grace is sufficient

00:19:34.039 --> 00:19:35.279
 if you do

00:19:35.279 --> 00:19:36.599
 you have to come

00:19:36.599 --> 00:19:38.339
 and that's the only

00:19:38.339 --> 00:19:38.940
 requirement

00:19:38.940 --> 00:19:40.599
 come as you are

00:19:40.599 --> 00:19:41.900
 come beat up

00:19:41.900 --> 00:19:42.839
 come bedraggled

00:19:42.839 --> 00:19:44.120
 you just come

00:19:44.120 --> 00:19:45.440
 and he says

00:19:45.440 --> 00:19:46.240
 I will give you rest

00:19:46.240 --> 00:19:47.140
 and then you take

00:19:47.140 --> 00:19:48.460
 his yoke upon you

00:19:48.460 --> 00:19:49.920
 and learn from me

00:19:49.920 --> 00:19:50.700
 for I am gentle

00:19:50.700 --> 00:19:51.720
 and lowly in heart

00:19:51.720 --> 00:19:52.700
 and you will find

00:19:52.700 --> 00:19:53.680
 rest for your souls

00:19:53.680 --> 00:19:54.980
 for my yoke is easy

00:19:54.980 --> 00:19:55.880
 and my burden is light

00:19:55.880 --> 00:19:57.500
 take my yoke upon you

00:19:57.500 --> 00:19:57.900
 you say

00:19:57.900 --> 00:19:59.920
 oh my yoke is too heavy

00:19:59.920 --> 00:20:01.020
 this is too much

00:20:01.020 --> 00:20:02.820
 then you lay it down

00:20:02.820 --> 00:20:03.200
 before him

00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:03.420
 and say

00:20:03.420 --> 00:20:04.180
 give me your yoke

00:20:04.180 --> 00:20:05.040
 give me your light

00:20:05.040 --> 00:20:06.480
 and easy yoke

00:20:06.480 --> 00:20:08.340
 give me your light

00:20:08.340 --> 00:20:09.240
 and easy yoke

00:20:09.240 --> 00:20:11.300
 and he says

00:20:11.300 --> 00:20:11.920
 and you will find

00:20:11.920 --> 00:20:12.960
 rest for your souls

00:20:12.960 --> 00:20:14.460
 do you believe that

00:20:14.460 --> 00:20:15.740
 again these are promises

00:20:15.740 --> 00:20:17.540
 this is the word of God

00:20:17.540 --> 00:20:18.860
 I am speaking to you

00:20:18.860 --> 00:20:19.780
 the word of the Lord

00:20:19.780 --> 00:20:20.740
 you want a prophetic

00:20:20.740 --> 00:20:21.420
 word for you

00:20:21.420 --> 00:20:22.720
 you will find rest

00:20:22.720 --> 00:20:23.300
 for your souls

00:20:23.300 --> 00:20:24.060
 if you come to him

00:20:24.059 --> 00:20:26.700
 that's really prophetic

00:20:26.700 --> 00:20:27.659
 you bet it is

00:20:27.659 --> 00:20:29.779
 it's the word of God

00:20:29.779 --> 00:20:31.279
 you'll find rest

00:20:31.279 --> 00:20:32.000
 for your souls

00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:32.940
 you can take that

00:20:32.940 --> 00:20:33.460
 to the bank

00:20:33.460 --> 00:20:34.339
 there is nothing

00:20:34.339 --> 00:20:35.019
 that can get in the way

00:20:35.019 --> 00:20:35.259
 of that

00:20:35.259 --> 00:20:36.099
 that is true

00:20:36.099 --> 00:20:37.000
 today

00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:37.720
 tomorrow

00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:39.000
 in the pouring rain

00:20:39.000 --> 00:20:40.019
 in the noonday sun

00:20:40.019 --> 00:20:41.240
 it is always true

00:20:41.240 --> 00:20:42.159
 it has always been true

00:20:42.159 --> 00:20:43.339
 and it always will be true

00:20:43.339 --> 00:20:45.940
 will we believe him

00:20:45.940 --> 00:20:46.740
 to go to him though

00:20:46.740 --> 00:20:47.759
 or will we go

00:20:47.759 --> 00:20:48.619
 to other things

00:20:48.619 --> 00:20:50.679
 will we go

00:20:50.679 --> 00:20:51.740
 to other things

00:20:51.740 --> 00:20:52.960
 to try to find rest

00:20:52.960 --> 00:20:54.920
 Netflix isn't your rest

00:20:54.920 --> 00:20:58.779
 doom scrolling

00:20:58.779 --> 00:20:59.720
 on social media

00:20:59.720 --> 00:21:00.720
 isn't your rest

00:21:00.720 --> 00:21:02.420
 working more

00:21:02.420 --> 00:21:03.620
 isn't your rest

00:21:03.620 --> 00:21:05.319
 okay

00:21:05.319 --> 00:21:07.400
 drowning it out

00:21:07.400 --> 00:21:08.200
 with food

00:21:08.200 --> 00:21:08.860
 or alcohol

00:21:08.860 --> 00:21:10.079
 or pick your poison

00:21:10.079 --> 00:21:11.980
 that is not your rest

00:21:11.980 --> 00:21:14.019
 Jesus is your rest

00:21:14.019 --> 00:21:14.860
 his yoke

00:21:14.860 --> 00:21:15.600
 is your rest

00:21:15.600 --> 00:21:16.660
 take it upon you

00:21:16.660 --> 00:21:18.200
 and you will find rest

00:21:18.200 --> 00:21:18.920
 for your souls

00:21:18.920 --> 00:21:20.519
 his yoke is easy

00:21:20.519 --> 00:21:21.340
 and his burden is light

00:21:21.339 --> 00:21:22.819
 Psalm 46 10

00:21:22.819 --> 00:21:23.740
 says it this way

00:21:23.740 --> 00:21:24.859
 in the NASB

00:21:24.859 --> 00:21:25.240
 it says

00:21:25.240 --> 00:21:26.759
 cease striving

00:21:26.759 --> 00:21:28.299
 and know that I am God

00:21:28.299 --> 00:21:29.959
 cease striving

00:21:29.959 --> 00:21:31.000
 give up striving

00:21:31.000 --> 00:21:32.099
 I'm not going to strive anymore

00:21:32.099 --> 00:21:33.039
 I'm not going to strive

00:21:33.039 --> 00:21:34.339
 to be something

00:21:34.339 --> 00:21:36.459
 what did we just sing

00:21:36.459 --> 00:21:38.639
 what did we say

00:21:38.639 --> 00:21:40.059
 is the power in us

00:21:40.059 --> 00:21:41.659
 Christ in me

00:21:41.659 --> 00:21:42.359
 right

00:21:42.359 --> 00:21:43.359
 is holiness

00:21:43.359 --> 00:21:44.879
 remember we were just saying that

00:21:44.879 --> 00:21:46.759
 it's easy to sing it

00:21:46.759 --> 00:21:47.480
 do you believe that

00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:48.819
 or are you

00:21:48.819 --> 00:21:50.779
 is striving in me

00:21:50.779 --> 00:21:51.319
 your holiness

00:21:51.319 --> 00:21:53.500
 if I just try hard enough

00:21:53.500 --> 00:21:54.120
 if I just

00:21:54.120 --> 00:21:56.680
 push myself hard enough

00:21:56.680 --> 00:21:57.839
 then I'll be holy

00:21:57.839 --> 00:21:59.500
 no that's not true

00:21:59.500 --> 00:22:01.160
 holiness in you

00:22:01.160 --> 00:22:02.319
 is Christ in you

00:22:02.319 --> 00:22:03.960
 holiness in you

00:22:03.960 --> 00:22:04.740
 is Christ in you

00:22:04.740 --> 00:22:06.099
 cease striving

00:22:06.099 --> 00:22:07.259
 and know that I am God

00:22:07.259 --> 00:22:08.559
 cease striving

00:22:08.559 --> 00:22:10.360
 and just let him be

00:22:10.360 --> 00:22:11.220
 who he is

00:22:11.220 --> 00:22:13.640
 not that you can stop him

00:22:13.640 --> 00:22:14.720
 from being who he is

00:22:14.720 --> 00:22:15.620
 in general

00:22:15.619 --> 00:22:16.919
 but you can definitely

00:22:16.919 --> 00:22:17.699
 get in the way of him

00:22:17.699 --> 00:22:18.559
 being who he is

00:22:18.559 --> 00:22:19.279
 in you

00:22:19.279 --> 00:22:22.419
 and we can't do that

00:22:22.419 --> 00:22:23.699
 you have to cease striving

00:22:23.699 --> 00:22:25.859
 and that cease striving

00:22:25.859 --> 00:22:26.559
 isn't a rebuke

00:22:26.559 --> 00:22:28.039
 as much as it's good news

00:22:28.039 --> 00:22:29.799
 stop fighting

00:22:29.799 --> 00:22:30.639
 stop striving

00:22:30.639 --> 00:22:31.979
 release it

00:22:31.979 --> 00:22:32.859
 let go of it

00:22:32.859 --> 00:22:33.859
 and know that I am God

00:22:33.859 --> 00:22:34.739
 there's rest

00:22:34.739 --> 00:22:36.379
 in his finished work

00:22:36.379 --> 00:22:38.299
 Romans 4 3 to 8

00:22:38.299 --> 00:22:39.939
 says what is the scripture saying

00:22:39.939 --> 00:22:41.279
 Abraham believed God

00:22:41.279 --> 00:22:42.159
 and it was counted to him

00:22:42.159 --> 00:22:42.779
 as righteousness

00:22:42.779 --> 00:22:44.899
 not of the one who works

00:22:44.900 --> 00:22:45.720
 his wages

00:22:45.720 --> 00:22:46.680
 are not counted

00:22:46.680 --> 00:22:47.519
 as a gift

00:22:47.519 --> 00:22:48.960
 but as is due

00:22:48.960 --> 00:22:50.060
 make sense

00:22:50.060 --> 00:22:51.720
 and to the one

00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:53.000
 who does not work

00:22:53.000 --> 00:22:54.660
 but believes in him

00:22:54.660 --> 00:22:56.400
 who justifies the ungodly

00:22:56.400 --> 00:22:57.740
 his faith is counted

00:22:57.740 --> 00:22:58.420
 as righteousness

00:22:58.420 --> 00:23:01.100
 man that is such good news

00:23:01.100 --> 00:23:01.920
 to the one

00:23:01.920 --> 00:23:03.100
 who does not work

00:23:03.100 --> 00:23:04.600
 meaning does not work

00:23:04.600 --> 00:23:05.400
 for salvation

00:23:05.400 --> 00:23:06.140
 does not work

00:23:06.140 --> 00:23:08.040
 to be seen differently

00:23:08.040 --> 00:23:08.800
 before the Lord

00:23:08.800 --> 00:23:09.920
 the one who does not work

00:23:09.920 --> 00:23:10.900
 for his righteousness

00:23:10.900 --> 00:23:12.860
 but the one

00:23:12.860 --> 00:23:13.880
 who has ceased

00:23:13.880 --> 00:23:14.620
 from his work

00:23:14.620 --> 00:23:16.100
 and who believes in him

00:23:16.100 --> 00:23:17.720
 who justifies the ungodly

00:23:17.720 --> 00:23:18.780
 isn't that awesome

00:23:18.780 --> 00:23:19.600
 that he justifies

00:23:19.600 --> 00:23:20.380
 the ungodly

00:23:20.380 --> 00:23:21.600
 isn't it awesome

00:23:21.600 --> 00:23:22.500
 that it doesn't say

00:23:22.500 --> 00:23:23.580
 that he justifies

00:23:23.580 --> 00:23:24.220
 the godly

00:23:24.220 --> 00:23:25.200
 because if he said

00:23:25.200 --> 00:23:26.000
 that he justifies

00:23:26.000 --> 00:23:26.640
 the godly

00:23:26.640 --> 00:23:27.460
 then he wouldn't

00:23:27.460 --> 00:23:28.540
 justify anybody

00:23:28.540 --> 00:23:30.420
 do you understand that

00:23:30.420 --> 00:23:31.920
 there is no godly

00:23:31.920 --> 00:23:32.480
 there is no one

00:23:32.480 --> 00:23:33.000
 who does good

00:23:33.000 --> 00:23:33.680
 there is no one

00:23:33.680 --> 00:23:34.820
 not even one

00:23:34.820 --> 00:23:35.400
 it says

00:23:35.400 --> 00:23:37.040
 if he didn't say

00:23:37.040 --> 00:23:38.180
 that he justifies

00:23:38.180 --> 00:23:39.440
 the ungodly

00:23:39.440 --> 00:23:40.140
 and said

00:23:40.140 --> 00:23:41.100
 no I only justify

00:23:41.100 --> 00:23:41.720
 the godly

00:23:41.720 --> 00:23:42.259
 there would be

00:23:42.259 --> 00:23:43.299
 no hope for us all

00:23:43.299 --> 00:23:44.299
 when he says

00:23:44.299 --> 00:23:45.840
 I justify the ungodly

00:23:45.840 --> 00:23:46.500
 he says

00:23:46.500 --> 00:23:48.080
 I justify people

00:23:48.080 --> 00:23:48.880
 like you and me

00:23:48.880 --> 00:23:51.279
 the one who does not work

00:23:51.279 --> 00:23:52.299
 but believes in him

00:23:52.299 --> 00:23:53.779
 who justifies the ungodly

00:23:53.779 --> 00:23:55.240
 his faith

00:23:55.240 --> 00:23:56.000
 is counted

00:23:56.000 --> 00:23:57.120
 as righteousness

00:23:57.120 --> 00:23:58.560
 just as David

00:23:58.560 --> 00:23:59.240
 also speaks

00:23:59.240 --> 00:23:59.920
 of the blessing

00:23:59.920 --> 00:24:00.779
 of the one

00:24:00.779 --> 00:24:01.340
 to whom God

00:24:01.340 --> 00:24:02.180
 counts righteousness

00:24:02.180 --> 00:24:02.920
 apart

00:24:02.920 --> 00:24:04.100
 from works

00:24:04.100 --> 00:24:06.080
 is your righteousness

00:24:06.080 --> 00:24:07.160
 apart from works

00:24:07.160 --> 00:24:08.700
 or does your

00:24:08.700 --> 00:24:10.200
 lack of works

00:24:10.200 --> 00:24:11.600
 or your evil works

00:24:11.600 --> 00:24:12.800
 come against you

00:24:12.800 --> 00:24:13.540
 and cause you

00:24:13.540 --> 00:24:14.140
 to believe

00:24:14.140 --> 00:24:15.380
 that your righteousness

00:24:15.380 --> 00:24:16.660
 is somehow at stake

00:24:16.660 --> 00:24:17.800
 that your righteousness

00:24:17.800 --> 00:24:19.160
 was somehow dependent

00:24:19.160 --> 00:24:20.600
 upon your works

00:24:20.600 --> 00:24:21.740
 so much so

00:24:21.740 --> 00:24:22.840
 that you can't

00:24:22.840 --> 00:24:23.620
 tell people

00:24:23.620 --> 00:24:24.580
 your weaknesses

00:24:24.580 --> 00:24:25.680
 you can't

00:24:25.680 --> 00:24:26.340
 voluntarily

00:24:26.340 --> 00:24:27.920
 offer up your weaknesses

00:24:27.920 --> 00:24:29.060
 and if someone

00:24:29.060 --> 00:24:29.800
 confronts you

00:24:29.800 --> 00:24:30.380
 in your weaknesses

00:24:30.380 --> 00:24:31.420
 you have to

00:24:31.420 --> 00:24:32.100
 defend yourself

00:24:32.100 --> 00:24:32.900
 and not let it

00:24:32.900 --> 00:24:33.519
 be exposed

00:24:33.519 --> 00:24:34.200
 because

00:24:34.200 --> 00:24:36.220
 I'm counting

00:24:36.220 --> 00:24:37.200
 in my own righteousness

00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:38.200
 and if someone

00:24:38.200 --> 00:24:39.880
 exposes my unrighteousness

00:24:39.880 --> 00:24:41.279
 it's a direct assault

00:24:41.279 --> 00:24:42.500
 on that which I find

00:24:42.500 --> 00:24:43.000
 my identity

00:24:43.000 --> 00:24:43.839
 and my worth in

00:24:43.839 --> 00:24:45.299
 this verse is

00:24:45.299 --> 00:24:45.819
 an affront

00:24:45.819 --> 00:24:47.000
 to that mentality

00:24:47.000 --> 00:24:48.019
 and guess what

00:24:48.019 --> 00:24:49.200
 it's in all of us

00:24:49.200 --> 00:24:51.319
 there's a little bit

00:24:51.319 --> 00:24:52.220
 of self-righteousness

00:24:52.220 --> 00:24:53.059
 in all of us

00:24:53.059 --> 00:24:53.819
 that says

00:24:53.819 --> 00:24:55.100
 no it's Jesus

00:24:55.100 --> 00:24:56.420
 plus my efforts

00:24:56.420 --> 00:24:57.900
 that's what it is

00:24:57.900 --> 00:24:58.680
 no

00:24:58.680 --> 00:25:00.240
 it never was

00:25:00.240 --> 00:25:01.240
 it isn't now

00:25:01.240 --> 00:25:02.120
 and it never will be

00:25:02.120 --> 00:25:02.940
 it's not Jesus

00:25:02.940 --> 00:25:03.940
 plus your efforts

00:25:03.940 --> 00:25:05.140
 it's Jesus

00:25:05.140 --> 00:25:06.920
 plus his efforts

00:25:06.920 --> 00:25:08.240
 plus his work

00:25:08.240 --> 00:25:09.920
 plus zero view

00:25:09.920 --> 00:25:11.960
 zero

00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:13.779
 Jesus plus nothing

00:25:13.779 --> 00:25:14.680
 equals everything

00:25:14.680 --> 00:25:15.680
 okay

00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:17.180
 you don't add to it

00:25:17.180 --> 00:25:18.519
 you can't add to it

00:25:18.519 --> 00:25:19.759
 and your attempts

00:25:19.759 --> 00:25:20.680
 to add to it

00:25:20.680 --> 00:25:22.480
 are disgusting

00:25:22.480 --> 00:25:25.059
 the Bible calls it

00:25:25.059 --> 00:25:26.059
 like a filthy rag

00:25:26.059 --> 00:25:27.920
 like a filthy menstrual rag

00:25:27.920 --> 00:25:29.059
 is your attempts

00:25:29.059 --> 00:25:29.820
 at righteousness

00:25:29.820 --> 00:25:31.340
 but we should be

00:25:31.340 --> 00:25:32.259
 the ones who cease

00:25:32.259 --> 00:25:33.039
 from our works

00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:34.420
 the ones who believe

00:25:34.420 --> 00:25:35.259
 and trust

00:25:35.259 --> 00:25:36.359
 and the one who justifies

00:25:36.359 --> 00:25:37.139
 the ungodly

00:25:37.139 --> 00:25:38.119
 and then our faith

00:25:38.119 --> 00:25:39.139
 is counted as righteousness

00:25:39.139 --> 00:25:40.539
 just as David speaks

00:25:40.539 --> 00:25:41.079
 of the blessing

00:25:41.079 --> 00:25:41.700
 of the one to whom

00:25:41.700 --> 00:25:43.399
 God counts righteousness

00:25:43.399 --> 00:25:45.879
 apart from works

00:25:45.879 --> 00:25:47.359
 blessed

00:25:47.359 --> 00:25:49.159
 are those whose lawless deeds

00:25:49.159 --> 00:25:49.720
 are forgiven

00:25:49.720 --> 00:25:51.159
 and whose sins are covered

00:25:51.159 --> 00:25:52.319
 blessed is the man

00:25:52.319 --> 00:25:53.119
 against whom the Lord

00:25:53.119 --> 00:25:54.139
 will not count his sin

00:25:54.139 --> 00:25:56.299
 amen and amen to that

00:25:56.299 --> 00:25:58.220
 Hebrews 4 9-10

00:25:58.220 --> 00:25:58.480
 says

00:25:58.480 --> 00:25:59.139
 so there remains

00:25:59.139 --> 00:26:00.059
 a Sabbath rest

00:26:00.059 --> 00:26:01.980
 for the people of God

00:26:01.980 --> 00:26:03.460
 for the one who has

00:26:03.460 --> 00:26:04.500
 entered his rest

00:26:04.500 --> 00:26:05.579
 has himself

00:26:05.579 --> 00:26:06.980
 also rested

00:26:06.980 --> 00:26:08.039
 from his works

00:26:08.039 --> 00:26:09.200
 as God did

00:26:09.200 --> 00:26:09.700
 from his

00:26:09.700 --> 00:26:10.539
 some of us need

00:26:10.539 --> 00:26:11.400
 to take a rest

00:26:11.400 --> 00:26:12.839
 from our self-righteous

00:26:12.839 --> 00:26:13.339
 attempts

00:26:13.339 --> 00:26:15.079
 at being enough

00:26:15.079 --> 00:26:18.120
 everyone wants to say

00:26:18.120 --> 00:26:18.920
 you're enough

00:26:18.920 --> 00:26:20.400
 you're not

00:26:20.400 --> 00:26:22.500
 you're not enough

00:26:22.500 --> 00:26:24.920
 there's a song

00:26:24.920 --> 00:26:25.960
 I can hear it in my head

00:26:25.960 --> 00:26:26.380
 right now

00:26:26.380 --> 00:26:27.200
 and he just says

00:26:27.200 --> 00:26:27.680
 over and over again

00:26:27.680 --> 00:26:28.339
 you're enough

00:26:28.339 --> 00:26:28.900
 you're enough

00:26:28.900 --> 00:26:29.240
 you're enough

00:26:29.240 --> 00:26:29.500
 I'm like

00:26:29.500 --> 00:26:30.380
 no you're not

00:26:30.380 --> 00:26:31.900
 you never have been

00:26:31.900 --> 00:26:32.960
 you never will be

00:26:32.960 --> 00:26:34.240
 and the good news is

00:26:34.240 --> 00:26:35.279
 it doesn't matter

00:26:35.279 --> 00:26:36.019
 if you're in Christ

00:26:36.019 --> 00:26:37.079
 because he's enough

00:26:37.079 --> 00:26:39.200
 but you're not enough

00:26:39.200 --> 00:26:40.940
 your efforts aren't enough

00:26:40.940 --> 00:26:41.839
 your attempts

00:26:41.839 --> 00:26:42.519
 at being righteous

00:26:42.519 --> 00:26:43.220
 aren't enough

00:26:43.220 --> 00:26:45.000
 all your best attempts

00:26:45.000 --> 00:26:46.240
 always end up

00:26:46.240 --> 00:26:47.120
 in despair

00:26:47.120 --> 00:26:48.759
 because you can't do it

00:26:48.759 --> 00:26:50.380
 only God can do it

00:26:50.380 --> 00:26:51.380
 and that's why we

00:26:51.380 --> 00:26:52.799
 wholly trust in Jesus name

00:26:52.799 --> 00:26:53.839
 I dare not trust

00:26:53.839 --> 00:26:54.680
 the sweetest frame

00:26:54.680 --> 00:26:55.740
 but wholly lean

00:26:55.740 --> 00:26:56.960
 on Jesus name

00:26:56.960 --> 00:26:58.660
 on Christ the solid rock

00:26:58.660 --> 00:26:59.160
 I stand

00:26:59.160 --> 00:26:59.380
 right

00:26:59.380 --> 00:26:59.980
 all the ground

00:26:59.980 --> 00:27:00.779
 is sinking sand

00:27:00.779 --> 00:27:08.880
 this is true

00:27:08.880 --> 00:27:09.880
 also in marriage

00:27:09.880 --> 00:27:11.660
 I call this

00:27:11.660 --> 00:27:12.980
 married scary

00:27:12.980 --> 00:27:14.039
 authority rest

00:27:14.039 --> 00:27:14.640
 okay

00:27:14.640 --> 00:27:16.120
 married scary

00:27:16.120 --> 00:27:17.000
 authority rest

00:27:17.000 --> 00:27:17.680
 okay

00:27:17.680 --> 00:27:19.140
 going to your husband

00:27:19.140 --> 00:27:20.500
 while hoping in God

00:27:20.500 --> 00:27:21.279
 and adorned with

00:27:21.279 --> 00:27:22.640
 gentleness and quietness

00:27:22.640 --> 00:27:24.480
 1 Corinthians 14 35

00:27:24.480 --> 00:27:25.559
 says if there's anything

00:27:25.559 --> 00:27:26.380
 they desire to learn

00:27:26.380 --> 00:27:27.580
 but the master husband

00:27:27.580 --> 00:27:28.240
 is at home

00:27:28.240 --> 00:27:30.020
 it's so easy

00:27:30.020 --> 00:27:30.760
 for a wife

00:27:30.760 --> 00:27:31.640
 to be scared

00:27:31.640 --> 00:27:32.960
 that the husband

00:27:32.960 --> 00:27:34.000
 isn't going to have

00:27:34.000 --> 00:27:34.620
 what it takes

00:27:34.620 --> 00:27:35.300
 or isn't going to have

00:27:35.300 --> 00:27:35.840
 the answers

00:27:35.840 --> 00:27:36.660
 or isn't going to have

00:27:36.660 --> 00:27:37.160
 the leadership

00:27:37.160 --> 00:27:38.200
 or isn't going to be able

00:27:38.200 --> 00:27:39.780
 to do what needs to be done

00:27:39.780 --> 00:27:40.820
 and the tendency

00:27:40.820 --> 00:27:41.920
 is then to go elsewhere

00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:42.920
 besides husband

00:27:42.920 --> 00:27:46.020
 but 1 Peter 3 4-6

00:27:46.020 --> 00:27:47.020
 speaks of the

00:27:47.020 --> 00:27:47.920
 imperishable beauty

00:27:47.920 --> 00:27:48.500
 of a gentle

00:27:48.500 --> 00:27:49.460
 and quiet spirit

00:27:49.460 --> 00:27:51.220
 and how this is

00:27:51.220 --> 00:27:52.100
 how the holy women

00:27:52.100 --> 00:27:53.380
 who hoped in God

00:27:53.380 --> 00:27:54.760
 used to adorn themselves

00:27:54.760 --> 00:27:55.440
 by submitting

00:27:55.440 --> 00:27:56.320
 to their own husbands

00:27:56.320 --> 00:27:57.180
 as Sarah

00:27:57.180 --> 00:27:57.940
 obeyed Abraham

00:27:57.940 --> 00:27:58.840
 calling him Lord

00:27:58.840 --> 00:28:00.279
 and you are her children

00:28:00.279 --> 00:28:01.200
 if you do good

00:28:01.200 --> 00:28:02.240
 and do not fear

00:28:02.240 --> 00:28:03.740
 anything that is frightening

00:28:03.740 --> 00:28:05.900
 there's a rest

00:28:05.900 --> 00:28:07.160
 even in a marriage

00:28:07.160 --> 00:28:08.400
 where you feel like

00:28:08.400 --> 00:28:09.900
 your husband's

00:28:09.900 --> 00:28:10.620
 dropping the ball

00:28:10.620 --> 00:28:11.340
 that your husband's

00:28:11.340 --> 00:28:12.220
 not taking the leadership

00:28:12.220 --> 00:28:13.059
 that he should take

00:28:13.059 --> 00:28:14.600
 where you can rest

00:28:14.600 --> 00:28:15.480
 because your hope

00:28:15.480 --> 00:28:16.160
 is in God

00:28:16.160 --> 00:28:17.320
 not in your husband

00:28:17.320 --> 00:28:19.160
 and because you are gentle

00:28:19.160 --> 00:28:20.440
 not trying to fight

00:28:20.440 --> 00:28:21.120
 for your way

00:28:21.120 --> 00:28:22.120
 you're quiet

00:28:22.119 --> 00:28:23.379
 not trying to

00:28:23.379 --> 00:28:24.519
 have people hear

00:28:24.519 --> 00:28:25.179
 your case

00:28:25.179 --> 00:28:26.219
 and to go outside

00:28:26.219 --> 00:28:26.859
 of your husband

00:28:26.859 --> 00:28:27.759
 so much

00:28:27.759 --> 00:28:28.599
 because you don't believe

00:28:28.599 --> 00:28:29.259
 he's going to hear

00:28:29.259 --> 00:28:29.799
 your case

00:28:29.799 --> 00:28:30.799
 but that you can

00:28:30.799 --> 00:28:32.379
 gently and quietly

00:28:32.379 --> 00:28:33.539
 adorn yourself

00:28:33.539 --> 00:28:35.339
 with the trust in God

00:28:35.339 --> 00:28:36.379
 that the women of old

00:28:36.379 --> 00:28:37.599
 used to adorn themselves with

00:28:37.599 --> 00:28:38.500
 and that you're not

00:28:38.500 --> 00:28:39.099
 frightening that

00:28:39.099 --> 00:28:39.919
 you're not fearing

00:28:39.919 --> 00:28:40.779
 that which is frightening

00:28:40.779 --> 00:28:42.419
 which goes to say

00:28:42.419 --> 00:28:43.239
 that it is frightening

00:28:43.239 --> 00:28:44.500
 to submit to a man

00:28:44.500 --> 00:28:45.439
 it is frightening

00:28:45.439 --> 00:28:46.659
 but you don't have to fear

00:28:46.659 --> 00:28:47.319
 that which is frightening

00:28:47.319 --> 00:28:47.819
 because your hope

00:28:47.819 --> 00:28:48.719
 was never in that man

00:28:48.719 --> 00:28:49.879
 your hope is in God

00:28:49.880 --> 00:28:51.520
 and there's a certain rest

00:28:51.520 --> 00:28:52.660
 in that in marriage

00:28:52.660 --> 00:28:55.700
 when you are not being gentle

00:28:55.700 --> 00:28:57.100
 and you're trying to force your way

00:28:57.100 --> 00:28:58.440
 or you're not being quiet

00:28:58.440 --> 00:29:00.580
 and you're trying to verbally

00:29:00.580 --> 00:29:02.000
 manipulate your way

00:29:02.000 --> 00:29:03.280
 this is evidence

00:29:03.280 --> 00:29:05.900
 of not resting in the Lord

00:29:05.900 --> 00:29:08.200
 on the flip side

00:29:08.200 --> 00:29:09.980
 there's a married men's

00:29:09.980 --> 00:29:11.620
 scary authority rest as well

00:29:11.620 --> 00:29:12.120
 okay

00:29:12.120 --> 00:29:15.140
 this is a husband responding

00:29:15.140 --> 00:29:16.240
 with understanding

00:29:16.240 --> 00:29:17.900
 gentleness and honor

00:29:17.900 --> 00:29:19.220
 when the responsibility

00:29:19.220 --> 00:29:20.660
 to lead weighs heavy

00:29:20.660 --> 00:29:22.180
 and your wife is scared

00:29:22.180 --> 00:29:23.960
 let me say that again

00:29:23.960 --> 00:29:25.860
 responding with understanding

00:29:25.860 --> 00:29:27.720
 gentleness and honor

00:29:27.720 --> 00:29:28.920
 when the responsibility

00:29:28.920 --> 00:29:30.299
 to lead weighs heavy

00:29:30.299 --> 00:29:31.779
 and your wife is scared

00:29:31.779 --> 00:29:34.200
 I get an F at this one

00:29:34.200 --> 00:29:34.799
 for sure

00:29:34.799 --> 00:29:35.440
 okay

00:29:35.440 --> 00:29:37.440
 not good at this one

00:29:37.440 --> 00:29:39.940
 but I

00:29:39.940 --> 00:29:42.100
 I can rest in this

00:29:42.100 --> 00:29:43.480
 I can rest in knowing

00:29:43.480 --> 00:29:44.579
 my

00:29:44.579 --> 00:29:46.220
 I can understand

00:29:46.220 --> 00:29:46.779
 understand

00:29:46.779 --> 00:29:49.740
 I can be an understanding husband

00:29:49.740 --> 00:29:51.220
 even when the weight

00:29:51.220 --> 00:29:52.079
 of responsibility

00:29:52.079 --> 00:29:53.460
 on my husbandry

00:29:53.460 --> 00:29:55.180
 causes me to lash out

00:29:55.180 --> 00:29:55.759
 at my wife

00:29:55.759 --> 00:29:56.720
 for being scared

00:29:56.720 --> 00:29:57.920
 because of course

00:29:57.920 --> 00:29:58.660
 she's scared

00:29:58.660 --> 00:30:00.380
 I'm overwhelmed

00:30:00.380 --> 00:30:01.039
 by the weight

00:30:01.039 --> 00:30:02.100
 what's the problem

00:30:02.100 --> 00:30:03.319
 I'm not at rest

00:30:03.319 --> 00:30:04.860
 I'm overwhelmed

00:30:04.860 --> 00:30:05.539
 with work

00:30:05.539 --> 00:30:06.279
 or I'm overwhelmed

00:30:06.279 --> 00:30:07.240
 with family

00:30:07.240 --> 00:30:07.740
 I'm overwhelmed

00:30:07.740 --> 00:30:08.539
 with relationships

00:30:08.539 --> 00:30:09.480
 or I'm overwhelmed

00:30:09.480 --> 00:30:10.519
 with this that

00:30:10.519 --> 00:30:11.380
 or the other drama

00:30:11.380 --> 00:30:12.920
 or whatever it may be

00:30:12.920 --> 00:30:14.680
 and so then

00:30:14.680 --> 00:30:16.759
 wife coming to me

00:30:16.759 --> 00:30:17.279
 scared

00:30:17.279 --> 00:30:18.580
 by what's already

00:30:18.580 --> 00:30:19.539
 being scary

00:30:19.539 --> 00:30:20.840
 because I'm overwhelmed

00:30:20.840 --> 00:30:23.100
 causes me to lash out

00:30:23.100 --> 00:30:24.220
 in lack of understanding

00:30:24.220 --> 00:30:26.539
 well what's the problem

00:30:26.539 --> 00:30:27.340
 the problem is

00:30:27.340 --> 00:30:28.180
 I'm not resting

00:30:28.180 --> 00:30:30.539
 I'm not resting in him

00:30:30.539 --> 00:30:32.080
 I'm not finding

00:30:32.080 --> 00:30:33.220
 my peace

00:30:33.220 --> 00:30:34.000
 and my rest

00:30:34.000 --> 00:30:34.580
 and that light

00:30:34.580 --> 00:30:35.440
 and easy yoke in him

00:30:35.440 --> 00:30:36.120
 and so then

00:30:36.120 --> 00:30:37.180
 if wife comes to me

00:30:37.180 --> 00:30:38.500
 scared with one more thing

00:30:38.500 --> 00:30:41.300
 I get angry

00:30:41.299 --> 00:30:43.039
 I snap

00:30:43.039 --> 00:30:44.440
 not good

00:30:44.440 --> 00:30:46.220
 I gotta rest

00:30:46.220 --> 00:30:47.579
 I gotta rest

00:30:47.579 --> 00:30:48.200
 in the Lord

00:30:48.200 --> 00:30:49.839
 1 Peter 3 7

00:30:49.839 --> 00:30:50.259
 likewise

00:30:50.259 --> 00:30:50.940
 husbands

00:30:50.940 --> 00:30:52.599
 live with your wives

00:30:52.599 --> 00:30:54.180
 in an understanding way

00:30:54.180 --> 00:30:55.440
 showing honor

00:30:55.440 --> 00:30:56.180
 to the woman

00:30:56.180 --> 00:30:57.659
 as the weaker vessel

00:30:57.659 --> 00:30:58.680
 since they are heirs

00:30:58.680 --> 00:30:59.039
 with you

00:30:59.039 --> 00:30:59.980
 of the grace of life

00:30:59.980 --> 00:31:01.180
 so that your prayers

00:31:01.180 --> 00:31:02.339
 may not be hindered

00:31:02.339 --> 00:31:04.539
 I don't want my prayers

00:31:04.539 --> 00:31:05.139
 to be hindered

00:31:05.139 --> 00:31:07.399
 number 3

00:31:07.399 --> 00:31:09.139
 experience driven capacity

00:31:09.139 --> 00:31:09.980
 okay

00:31:09.980 --> 00:31:11.000
 this comes from

00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:11.740
 what you've done

00:31:11.740 --> 00:31:12.799
 and what you've seen

00:31:12.799 --> 00:31:13.339
 in others

00:31:13.339 --> 00:31:14.180
 so

00:31:14.180 --> 00:31:15.740
 having a history

00:31:15.740 --> 00:31:16.220
 in God

00:31:16.220 --> 00:31:16.940
 where you see

00:31:16.940 --> 00:31:17.880
 God come through

00:31:17.880 --> 00:31:18.920
 for you over time

00:31:18.920 --> 00:31:20.839
 is inspiring

00:31:20.839 --> 00:31:21.620
 to believe

00:31:21.620 --> 00:31:22.620
 that you can handle things

00:31:22.620 --> 00:31:23.120
 meaning

00:31:23.120 --> 00:31:24.019
 if you've handled

00:31:24.019 --> 00:31:25.319
 if you've ever handled

00:31:25.319 --> 00:31:26.039
 something worse

00:31:26.039 --> 00:31:26.799
 than what you're handling

00:31:26.799 --> 00:31:27.099
 now

00:31:27.099 --> 00:31:27.519
 you think

00:31:27.519 --> 00:31:28.440
 I can handle this

00:31:28.440 --> 00:31:29.940
 right

00:31:29.940 --> 00:31:31.000
 this is the worst

00:31:31.000 --> 00:31:31.940
 I've ever experienced

00:31:31.940 --> 00:31:33.839
 we've been through worse

00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:35.339
 we've been through harder

00:31:35.339 --> 00:31:36.380
 right

00:31:36.380 --> 00:31:38.039
 that's just a practical

00:31:38.039 --> 00:31:39.159
 but sometimes

00:31:39.159 --> 00:31:39.799
 you've got to remind

00:31:39.799 --> 00:31:40.720
 each other of that

00:31:40.720 --> 00:31:41.259
 right

00:31:41.259 --> 00:31:41.740
 you've got to look

00:31:41.740 --> 00:31:42.039
 and say

00:31:42.039 --> 00:31:42.480
 hey

00:31:42.480 --> 00:31:43.859
 come on

00:31:43.859 --> 00:31:45.559
 you've been through worse

00:31:45.559 --> 00:31:47.700
 you've had harder seasons

00:31:47.700 --> 00:31:49.619
 God

00:31:49.619 --> 00:31:50.579
 God has kept you

00:31:50.579 --> 00:31:51.319
 through other things

00:31:51.319 --> 00:31:52.200
 and I always think

00:31:52.200 --> 00:31:52.339
 this

00:31:52.339 --> 00:31:52.879
 I thought this

00:31:52.879 --> 00:31:54.099
 this hit me so hard

00:31:54.099 --> 00:31:54.940
 when I had cancer

00:31:54.940 --> 00:31:57.159
 10 years ago

00:31:57.159 --> 00:31:58.680
 when I had testicular cancer

00:31:58.680 --> 00:31:59.460
 10 years ago

00:31:59.460 --> 00:32:00.579
 I thought

00:32:00.579 --> 00:32:01.799
 oh this is bad news

00:32:01.799 --> 00:32:02.740
 I have cancer

00:32:02.740 --> 00:32:03.240
 and I don't know

00:32:03.240 --> 00:32:03.940
 how bad it is

00:32:03.940 --> 00:32:04.960
 could be stage 4

00:32:04.960 --> 00:32:05.700
 I'm really old

00:32:05.700 --> 00:32:06.759
 for testicular cancer

00:32:06.759 --> 00:32:08.480
 what if it's all over my body

00:32:08.480 --> 00:32:09.319
 what if this is it

00:32:09.319 --> 00:32:10.360
 right

00:32:10.360 --> 00:32:11.319
 this could be it

00:32:11.319 --> 00:32:12.579
 this is bad news

00:32:12.579 --> 00:32:14.079
 but you know what

00:32:14.079 --> 00:32:15.579
 it's not the worst news

00:32:15.579 --> 00:32:16.340
 I've ever gotten

00:32:16.340 --> 00:32:17.620
 I've had worse

00:32:17.620 --> 00:32:19.019
 and guess what

00:32:19.019 --> 00:32:20.059
 no matter what bad news

00:32:20.059 --> 00:32:20.740
 you get in this world

00:32:20.740 --> 00:32:22.100
 there's always one thing

00:32:22.100 --> 00:32:22.640
 for Christians

00:32:22.640 --> 00:32:23.400
 that is worse

00:32:23.400 --> 00:32:24.120
 than the bad news

00:32:24.120 --> 00:32:24.700
 that you've gotten

00:32:24.700 --> 00:32:25.779
 okay

00:32:25.779 --> 00:32:26.539
 what is it

00:32:26.539 --> 00:32:28.180
 you were justly

00:32:28.180 --> 00:32:28.779
 and rightly

00:32:28.779 --> 00:32:30.180
 under the sentence

00:32:30.180 --> 00:32:30.620
 of hell

00:32:30.620 --> 00:32:31.400
 for all eternity

00:32:31.400 --> 00:32:33.600
 that's bad news

00:32:33.599 --> 00:32:35.159
 way worse than cancer

00:32:35.159 --> 00:32:36.759
 you have cancer

00:32:36.759 --> 00:32:37.799
 that's bad news

00:32:37.799 --> 00:32:38.939
 you're going to hell

00:32:38.939 --> 00:32:40.119
 way worse news

00:32:40.119 --> 00:32:42.659
 and if God came to you

00:32:42.659 --> 00:32:43.899
 in your worst news

00:32:43.899 --> 00:32:45.699
 when you were going to hell

00:32:45.699 --> 00:32:46.659
 and he intervened

00:32:46.659 --> 00:32:47.579
 and saved you

00:32:47.579 --> 00:32:48.619
 how much more

00:32:48.619 --> 00:32:49.319
 will he come to you

00:32:49.319 --> 00:32:50.740
 in way less bad news

00:32:50.740 --> 00:32:51.459
 like cancer

00:32:51.459 --> 00:32:53.359
 okay

00:32:53.359 --> 00:32:54.659
 so your experience

00:32:54.659 --> 00:32:55.359
 tells you

00:32:55.359 --> 00:32:55.859
 hey

00:32:55.859 --> 00:32:57.119
 I've been through worse

00:32:57.119 --> 00:32:57.759
 and a Christian

00:32:57.759 --> 00:32:59.179
 always has the trump card

00:32:59.179 --> 00:33:01.759
 I was destined for hell

00:33:01.759 --> 00:33:03.459
 and God came to me

00:33:03.460 --> 00:33:03.960
 in that

00:33:03.960 --> 00:33:05.180
 if he came to me

00:33:05.180 --> 00:33:05.779
 when I was destined

00:33:05.779 --> 00:33:06.559
 for hell

00:33:06.559 --> 00:33:07.880
 how in the world

00:33:07.880 --> 00:33:08.600
 do I think

00:33:08.600 --> 00:33:09.240
 that he's not going

00:33:09.240 --> 00:33:09.640
 to come

00:33:09.640 --> 00:33:10.920
 help me

00:33:10.920 --> 00:33:11.660
 when my kids

00:33:11.660 --> 00:33:12.299
 are overwhelming

00:33:12.299 --> 00:33:14.420
 it's like

00:33:14.420 --> 00:33:14.819
 well you don't know

00:33:14.819 --> 00:33:15.440
 my kids

00:33:15.440 --> 00:33:16.059
 well yeah

00:33:16.059 --> 00:33:17.120
 they're not

00:33:17.120 --> 00:33:17.960
 as bad as hell

00:33:17.960 --> 00:33:18.299
 right

00:33:18.299 --> 00:33:19.860
 they're not as bad

00:33:19.860 --> 00:33:20.259
 as hell

00:33:20.259 --> 00:33:21.579
 it's a good thing

00:33:21.579 --> 00:33:22.059
 to remember

00:33:22.059 --> 00:33:23.160
 so experiencing

00:33:23.160 --> 00:33:24.720
 experience

00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:25.799
 can remind you

00:33:25.799 --> 00:33:26.420
 but also

00:33:26.420 --> 00:33:27.759
 seeing in others

00:33:27.759 --> 00:33:28.120
 okay

00:33:28.120 --> 00:33:28.759
 there's

00:33:28.759 --> 00:33:29.400
 there's a

00:33:29.400 --> 00:33:32.000
 there's this thing

00:33:32.000 --> 00:33:32.799
 that happens

00:33:32.799 --> 00:33:33.980
 and we see it a lot

00:33:33.980 --> 00:33:34.440
 now where

00:33:34.440 --> 00:33:35.220
 people think

00:33:35.220 --> 00:33:35.799
 that they can't

00:33:35.799 --> 00:33:36.880
 handle certain things

00:33:36.880 --> 00:33:37.980
 because everyone

00:33:37.980 --> 00:33:38.519
 around them

00:33:38.519 --> 00:33:39.119
 can't handle

00:33:39.119 --> 00:33:40.039
 the same things

00:33:40.039 --> 00:33:41.599
 and then sometimes

00:33:41.599 --> 00:33:42.559
 you like talk

00:33:42.559 --> 00:33:43.579
 to an old grandparent

00:33:43.579 --> 00:33:44.740
 you know

00:33:44.740 --> 00:33:45.359
 or you watch

00:33:45.359 --> 00:33:46.019
 a documentary

00:33:46.019 --> 00:33:46.519
 of someone

00:33:46.519 --> 00:33:47.000
 who went through

00:33:47.000 --> 00:33:47.700
 world war ii

00:33:47.700 --> 00:33:48.519
 or who was in

00:33:48.519 --> 00:33:49.720
 a concentration camp

00:33:49.720 --> 00:33:50.640
 or any of this

00:33:50.640 --> 00:33:51.140
 kind of stuff

00:33:51.140 --> 00:33:51.559
 and you think

00:33:51.559 --> 00:33:51.980
 oh

00:33:51.980 --> 00:33:53.759
 oh

00:33:53.759 --> 00:33:54.440
 yeah

00:33:54.440 --> 00:33:55.900
 maybe we can

00:33:55.900 --> 00:33:56.500
 handle more

00:33:56.500 --> 00:33:58.380
 you know

00:33:58.380 --> 00:33:59.960
 maybe

00:33:59.960 --> 00:34:01.640
 we've grown

00:34:01.640 --> 00:34:02.160
 soft

00:34:02.160 --> 00:34:03.700
 maybe we've

00:34:03.700 --> 00:34:04.460
 grown to think

00:34:04.460 --> 00:34:04.859
 that we're

00:34:04.859 --> 00:34:05.299
 that we can

00:34:05.299 --> 00:34:05.759
 handle stuff

00:34:05.759 --> 00:34:06.380
 but we actually

00:34:06.380 --> 00:34:07.039
 can't

00:34:07.039 --> 00:34:08.840
 and so you

00:34:08.840 --> 00:34:09.300
 look at other

00:34:09.300 --> 00:34:09.719
 people

00:34:09.719 --> 00:34:10.360
 you look at

00:34:10.360 --> 00:34:10.599
 the ones

00:34:10.599 --> 00:34:10.920
 who've gone

00:34:10.920 --> 00:34:11.400
 before you

00:34:11.400 --> 00:34:11.940
 hebrews 13

00:34:11.940 --> 00:34:12.659
 7 says

00:34:12.659 --> 00:34:13.519
 remember your

00:34:13.519 --> 00:34:13.840
 leaders

00:34:13.840 --> 00:34:14.239
 those who

00:34:14.239 --> 00:34:14.659
 spoke to you

00:34:14.659 --> 00:34:15.039
 the word of

00:34:15.039 --> 00:34:15.239
 god

00:34:15.239 --> 00:34:15.840
 consider the

00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:16.360
 outcome of

00:34:16.360 --> 00:34:16.659
 their way

00:34:16.659 --> 00:34:17.099
 of life

00:34:17.099 --> 00:34:17.940
 and imitate

00:34:17.940 --> 00:34:18.579
 their faith

00:34:18.579 --> 00:34:19.579
 so first of

00:34:19.579 --> 00:34:19.860
 all look

00:34:19.860 --> 00:34:20.260
 are there any

00:34:20.260 --> 00:34:20.679
 leaders in

00:34:20.679 --> 00:34:21.059
 your life

00:34:21.059 --> 00:34:21.900
 who are able

00:34:21.900 --> 00:34:22.380
 to handle

00:34:22.380 --> 00:34:23.059
 things more

00:34:23.059 --> 00:34:23.719
 than you can

00:34:23.719 --> 00:34:24.780
 look at

00:34:24.780 --> 00:34:25.079
 them

00:34:25.079 --> 00:34:26.019
 and then

00:34:26.019 --> 00:34:26.599
 what's it

00:34:26.599 --> 00:34:27.000
 to say

00:34:27.000 --> 00:34:27.799
 and imitate

00:34:27.799 --> 00:34:28.860
 their life

00:34:28.860 --> 00:34:29.519
 no

00:34:29.519 --> 00:34:31.799
 no

00:34:31.799 --> 00:34:32.559
 it says

00:34:32.559 --> 00:34:33.139
 consider the

00:34:33.139 --> 00:34:33.519
 outcome of

00:34:33.519 --> 00:34:33.719
 their way

00:34:33.719 --> 00:34:33.980
 of life

00:34:33.980 --> 00:34:34.420
 and then it

00:34:34.420 --> 00:34:34.940
 doesn't say

00:34:34.940 --> 00:34:35.819
 imitate their

00:34:35.819 --> 00:34:36.179
 life

00:34:36.179 --> 00:34:36.819
 it says

00:34:36.819 --> 00:34:37.860
 imitate their

00:34:37.860 --> 00:34:38.279
 what

00:34:38.279 --> 00:34:40.019
 their faith

00:34:40.019 --> 00:34:41.759
 that is such

00:34:41.759 --> 00:34:42.199
 an important

00:34:42.199 --> 00:34:42.840
 detail

00:34:42.840 --> 00:34:43.739
 we think

00:34:43.739 --> 00:34:44.480
 oh man

00:34:44.480 --> 00:34:44.799
 that guy

00:34:44.799 --> 00:34:45.159
 can handle

00:34:45.159 --> 00:34:45.539
 a lot

00:34:45.539 --> 00:34:45.799
 or you

00:34:45.799 --> 00:34:46.139
 listen to

00:34:46.139 --> 00:34:46.679
 some podcast

00:34:46.679 --> 00:34:47.279
 oh he

00:34:47.279 --> 00:34:47.659
 can handle

00:34:47.659 --> 00:34:48.019
 a lot

00:34:48.019 --> 00:34:48.719
 or you

00:34:48.719 --> 00:34:48.880

00:34:50.739 --> 00:34:51.039
 someone

00:34:51.039 --> 00:34:51.420

00:34:51.420 --> 00:34:51.739
 a video

00:34:51.739 --> 00:34:52.199
 about someone

00:34:52.199 --> 00:34:52.480
 you think

00:34:52.480 --> 00:34:53.019

00:34:53.019 --> 00:34:53.460
 handle a lot

00:34:55.260 --> 00:34:56.840
 no

00:34:56.840 --> 00:34:57.880
 that's not

00:34:57.880 --> 00:34:58.159
 what it

 says

00:34:58.659 --> 00:34:59.519
 imitate

 this guy

00:35:45.860 --> 00:35:46.220
 Roger

 people like

00:36:02.099 --> 00:36:03.079
 did he discover

00:36:03.079 --> 00:36:03.679
 some wonder

00:36:03.679 --> 00:36:04.119
 drug

00:36:04.119 --> 00:36:05.099
 did he discover

00:36:05.099 --> 00:36:05.559
 some new

00:36:05.559 --> 00:36:06.480
 training technique

00:36:06.480 --> 00:36:07.239
 no

00:36:07.239 --> 00:36:08.299
 he believed

00:36:08.299 --> 00:36:08.739
 it could be

00:36:08.739 --> 00:36:08.980
 done

00:36:08.980 --> 00:36:09.420
 when everybody

00:36:09.420 --> 00:36:09.880
 said it

00:36:09.880 --> 00:36:10.179
 couldn't

00:36:10.179 --> 00:36:10.440
 and then

00:36:10.440 --> 00:36:10.980
 when someone

00:36:10.980 --> 00:36:11.699
 saw that

00:36:11.699 --> 00:36:11.960
 it was

00:36:11.960 --> 00:36:12.279
 done

00:36:12.279 --> 00:36:13.059
 then everybody

00:36:13.059 --> 00:36:13.799
 started breaking

00:36:13.799 --> 00:36:14.139
 it

00:36:14.139 --> 00:36:15.400
 so I want

00:37:19.820 --> 00:37:20.139
 day to

00:37:20.139 --> 00:37:20.719
 about 3

00:37:20.719 --> 00:37:21.019
 million

00:37:21.019 --> 00:37:21.460
 people

00:37:29.840 --> 00:37:30.779
 and never

00:37:30.779 --> 00:37:31.199
 took a

00:37:31.199 --> 00:37:31.719
 salary for

00:37:31.719 --> 00:37:32.039
 the last

00:37:32.039 --> 00:37:32.920
 68 years

00:37:32.920 --> 00:37:33.199
 of his

00:37:33.199 --> 00:37:33.679
 ministry

00:37:33.679 --> 00:37:34.440
 and never

00:37:34.440 --> 00:37:34.900
 asked for

00:37:34.900 --> 00:37:35.340
 money or

 took out

00:37:35.739 --> 00:37:36.179
 a loan

00:37:36.179 --> 00:37:38.219
 now listen

00:37:38.219 --> 00:37:39.699
 don't imitate

00:37:39.699 --> 00:37:40.500
 what George

00:37:40.500 --> 00:37:41.199
 Mueller did

00:37:41.199 --> 00:37:42.019
 but you know

00:37:42.019 --> 00:37:42.279
 what you

00:37:42.279 --> 00:37:42.960
 should imitate

00:37:42.960 --> 00:37:44.859
 his faith

00:37:44.859 --> 00:37:46.739
 his faith

00:37:46.739 --> 00:37:48.079
 I'm not

00:37:48.079 --> 00:37:48.419
 telling you

00:37:48.419 --> 00:37:48.699
 to do

00:37:48.699 --> 00:37:49.139
 what George

00:37:49.139 --> 00:37:49.739
 Mueller did

00:37:49.739 --> 00:37:50.219
 I'm not

00:37:50.219 --> 00:37:50.500
 telling you

00:37:50.500 --> 00:37:50.980
 to start

00:37:50.980 --> 00:37:51.879
 five orphanages

00:37:51.879 --> 00:37:52.319
 and help

00:37:52.319 --> 00:37:52.960
 10,000

00:37:52.960 --> 00:37:53.899
 orphans

00:37:53.899 --> 00:37:54.939
 I'm telling

00:37:54.939 --> 00:37:55.259
 you to

00:37:55.259 --> 00:37:55.559
 imitate

00:37:55.559 --> 00:37:56.319
 his faith

00:37:56.319 --> 00:37:57.539
 and you

00:37:57.539 --> 00:37:58.079
 do whatever

00:37:58.079 --> 00:37:58.679
 God's called

00:37:58.679 --> 00:37:59.299
 you to do

00:37:59.299 --> 00:38:00.519
 but start

00:38:00.519 --> 00:38:01.219
 with imitating

00:38:01.219 --> 00:38:01.879
 his faith

00:38:01.879 --> 00:38:03.379
 and believe

00:38:03.379 --> 00:38:03.719
 that you

00:38:03.719 --> 00:38:04.299
 could probably

00:38:04.299 --> 00:38:04.739
 do more

00:38:04.739 --> 00:38:05.039
 than you

00:38:05.039 --> 00:38:05.419
 think that

00:38:05.419 --> 00:38:05.819
 you can do

00:38:05.819 --> 00:38:06.500
 now by

00:38:06.500 --> 00:38:06.939
 looking at

00:38:06.939 --> 00:38:07.179
 all the

00:38:07.179 --> 00:38:07.779
 people around

00:38:07.779 --> 00:38:08.079
 you

00:38:08.079 --> 00:38:09.119
 maybe that's

00:38:09.119 --> 00:38:09.539
 not a good

00:38:09.539 --> 00:38:10.000
 standard

00:38:10.000 --> 00:38:10.559
 maybe that's

00:38:10.559 --> 00:38:10.939
 a soft

00:38:10.940 --> 00:38:11.320
 standard

00:38:11.320 --> 00:38:11.800
 maybe that's

00:38:11.800 --> 00:38:12.099
 a low

00:38:12.099 --> 00:38:12.519
 bar

00:38:12.519 --> 00:38:14.019
 maybe it's

00:38:14.019 --> 00:38:14.460
 time for us

00:38:14.460 --> 00:38:14.860
 to imitate

00:38:14.860 --> 00:38:15.360
 the faith

00:38:15.360 --> 00:38:15.700
 of those

00:38:15.700 --> 00:38:15.980
 who went

00:38:15.980 --> 00:38:16.840
 before us

00:38:16.840 --> 00:38:18.420
 have we

00:38:18.420 --> 00:38:19.240
 grown soft

00:38:19.240 --> 00:38:20.059
 has the

00:38:20.059 --> 00:38:20.460
 bar been

00:38:20.460 --> 00:38:20.880
 lowered

00:38:20.880 --> 00:38:21.960
 D.L.

00:38:22.019 --> 00:38:22.559
 Moody said

00:38:22.559 --> 00:38:22.880
 one of my

00:38:22.880 --> 00:38:23.619
 favorite quotes

00:38:23.619 --> 00:38:24.579
 he said

00:38:24.579 --> 00:38:24.920
 the world

00:38:24.920 --> 00:38:25.200
 has yet

00:38:25.200 --> 00:38:25.740
 to see

00:38:25.740 --> 00:38:26.860
 what God

00:38:26.860 --> 00:38:27.220
 can do

00:38:27.220 --> 00:38:27.639
 with a man

00:38:27.639 --> 00:38:28.599
 fully consecrated

00:38:28.599 --> 00:38:29.039
 to him

00:38:29.039 --> 00:38:30.019
 and by God's

00:38:30.019 --> 00:38:30.559
 help I aim

00:38:30.559 --> 00:38:31.039
 to be that

00:38:31.039 --> 00:38:31.380
 man

00:38:31.380 --> 00:38:34.000
 number four

00:38:34.000 --> 00:38:35.179
 spirit driven

00:38:35.179 --> 00:38:35.880
 capacity

00:38:35.880 --> 00:38:36.880
 okay

00:38:36.880 --> 00:38:37.960
 I don't know

00:38:37.960 --> 00:38:38.280
 if you just

00:38:38.280 --> 00:38:38.800
 had the first

00:38:38.800 --> 00:38:39.400
 three I feel

00:38:39.400 --> 00:38:39.740
 like you're

00:38:39.740 --> 00:38:40.099
 getting we're

00:38:40.099 --> 00:38:40.559
 doing pretty

00:38:40.559 --> 00:38:40.960
 good with

00:38:40.960 --> 00:38:41.440
 capacity

00:38:41.440 --> 00:38:41.779

00:38:42.559 --> 00:38:43.139
 two more

00:38:43.139 --> 00:38:43.860

00:38:43.860 --> 00:38:44.119
 two are

00:38:44.119 --> 00:38:44.500
 probably the

00:38:44.500 --> 00:38:45.179
 best ones

00:38:45.179 --> 00:38:46.360
 so are

00:38:48.860 --> 00:38:49.400
 four

00:38:49.400 --> 00:38:50.820
 spirit driven

00:38:50.820 --> 00:38:51.619
 capacity

00:38:51.619 --> 00:38:52.880
 spirit driven

00:38:52.880 --> 00:38:53.559
 capacity

00:38:53.559 --> 00:38:54.440
 we haven't even

00:38:54.440 --> 00:38:55.000
 talked about the

00:38:55.000 --> 00:38:55.559
 Holy Spirit

00:38:55.559 --> 00:38:55.900
 yet

00:38:55.900 --> 00:38:56.980
 right

00:38:56.980 --> 00:38:57.880
 that's a

00:38:57.880 --> 00:38:58.279
 pretty big

00:38:58.279 --> 00:38:58.659
 deal

00:38:58.659 --> 00:38:59.779
 Acts 1

00:38:59.779 --> 00:39:00.320
 verse 8

00:39:00.320 --> 00:39:01.159
 the promise

00:39:01.159 --> 00:39:01.480
 of the

00:39:01.480 --> 00:39:01.799
 Father

00:39:01.799 --> 00:39:02.299
 remember this

00:39:02.299 --> 00:39:02.559
 one

00:39:02.559 --> 00:39:03.579
 you will

00:39:03.579 --> 00:39:03.960
 receive

00:39:03.960 --> 00:39:04.539
 power

00:39:04.539 --> 00:39:05.259
 when the

00:39:05.259 --> 00:39:05.820
 Holy Spirit

00:39:05.820 --> 00:39:06.199
 has come

00:39:06.199 --> 00:39:06.779
 upon you

00:39:06.780 --> 00:39:08.080
 okay

00:39:08.080 --> 00:39:10.540
 what happens

00:39:10.540 --> 00:39:10.960
 when you are

00:39:10.960 --> 00:39:11.360
 filled

00:39:11.360 --> 00:39:11.920
 continually

00:39:11.920 --> 00:39:12.280
 with the

00:39:12.280 --> 00:39:12.500
 Spirit

00:39:12.500 --> 00:39:12.960
 of God

00:39:12.960 --> 00:39:13.600
 what happens

00:39:13.600 --> 00:39:13.880
 when you're

00:39:13.880 --> 00:39:14.360
 led by the

00:39:14.360 --> 00:39:14.580
 Spirit

00:39:14.580 --> 00:39:14.860
 of God

00:39:14.860 --> 00:39:15.260
 empowered

00:39:15.260 --> 00:39:15.680
 by the

00:39:15.680 --> 00:39:15.880
 Spirit

00:39:15.880 --> 00:39:16.340
 of God

00:39:16.340 --> 00:39:17.420
 when it's

00:39:17.420 --> 00:39:17.660
 not

00:39:17.660 --> 00:39:18.880
 you doing

00:39:18.880 --> 00:39:19.400
 it but the

00:39:19.400 --> 00:39:19.860
 Spirit

00:39:19.860 --> 00:39:20.760
 working in

00:39:20.760 --> 00:39:21.080
 you

00:39:21.080 --> 00:39:22.280
 not by

00:39:22.280 --> 00:39:22.600
 might

00:39:22.600 --> 00:39:23.180
 nor power

00:39:23.180 --> 00:39:23.660
 but by

00:39:23.660 --> 00:39:24.019
 my

00:39:24.019 --> 00:39:24.860
 Spirit

00:39:24.860 --> 00:39:25.500
 says the

00:39:25.500 --> 00:39:25.860
 Lord

00:39:25.860 --> 00:39:26.960
 2 Timothy

00:39:26.960 --> 00:39:27.260
 1

00:39:27.260 --> 00:39:27.540
 6

00:39:27.540 --> 00:39:27.960
 to 7

00:39:27.960 --> 00:39:28.220
 says

00:39:28.220 --> 00:39:28.540
 for this

00:39:28.540 --> 00:39:28.800
 reason

00:39:28.800 --> 00:39:29.200
 I remind

00:39:29.200 --> 00:39:29.460
 you to

00:39:29.460 --> 00:39:29.860
 fan into

00:39:29.860 --> 00:39:30.220
 flame

00:39:30.220 --> 00:39:30.920
 the gift

00:39:30.920 --> 00:39:31.320
 of God

00:39:31.320 --> 00:39:31.640
 which is

00:39:31.640 --> 00:39:31.940
 in you

00:39:31.940 --> 00:39:32.260
 through the

00:39:32.260 --> 00:39:32.720
 laying out

00:39:32.720 --> 00:39:32.960
 of my

00:39:32.960 --> 00:39:33.400
 hands

00:39:33.400 --> 00:39:34.360
 for God

00:39:34.360 --> 00:39:34.740
 gave us

00:39:34.740 --> 00:39:35.180
 a Spirit

00:39:35.180 --> 00:39:35.720
 not of

00:39:35.720 --> 00:39:36.160
 fear

00:39:36.160 --> 00:39:37.780
 but of

00:39:37.780 --> 00:39:38.260
 power

00:39:38.260 --> 00:39:39.000
 and love

00:39:39.000 --> 00:39:39.480
 and self

00:39:39.480 --> 00:39:40.019
 control

00:39:40.019 --> 00:39:40.800
 you believe

00:39:40.800 --> 00:39:41.200
 that

00:39:41.200 --> 00:39:42.700
 Romans

00:39:42.700 --> 00:39:42.900
 8

00:39:42.900 --> 00:39:43.220
 11

00:39:43.220 --> 00:39:43.820
 if the

00:39:43.820 --> 00:39:44.280
 Spirit

00:39:44.280 --> 00:39:45.039
 of him

00:39:45.039 --> 00:39:45.940
 who raised

00:39:45.940 --> 00:39:46.380
 Jesus

00:39:46.380 --> 00:39:46.900
 from the

00:39:46.900 --> 00:39:47.300
 dead

00:39:47.300 --> 00:39:48.059
 dwells

00:39:48.059 --> 00:39:48.579
 in you

00:39:48.579 --> 00:39:49.300
 he who

00:39:49.300 --> 00:39:49.559
 raised

00:39:49.559 --> 00:39:49.880
 Christ

00:39:49.880 --> 00:39:50.180
 Jesus

00:39:50.180 --> 00:39:50.559
 from the

00:39:50.559 --> 00:39:50.700
 dead

00:39:50.700 --> 00:39:51.200
 will also

00:39:51.200 --> 00:39:51.639
 give life

00:39:51.639 --> 00:39:51.980
 to your

00:39:51.980 --> 00:39:52.680
 mortal bodies

00:39:52.680 --> 00:39:53.700
 through his

00:39:53.700 --> 00:39:54.139
 Spirit

00:39:54.139 --> 00:39:54.840
 who dwells

00:39:54.840 --> 00:39:55.360
 in you

00:39:55.360 --> 00:39:56.340
 same

00:39:56.340 --> 00:39:56.680
 Spirit

00:39:56.680 --> 00:39:56.980
 who raised

00:39:56.980 --> 00:39:57.260
 Christ

00:39:57.260 --> 00:39:57.519
 from the

00:39:57.519 --> 00:39:57.680
 dead

00:39:57.680 --> 00:39:57.920
 lives

00:39:57.920 --> 00:39:58.400
 in us

00:39:58.400 --> 00:39:59.920
 and I

00:39:59.920 --> 00:40:00.280
 can't

00:40:00.280 --> 00:40:00.639
 even

00:40:00.639 --> 00:40:01.900
 right

00:40:01.900 --> 00:40:02.340
 I can't

00:40:02.340 --> 00:40:02.519
 even

00:40:02.519 --> 00:40:02.940
 handle

00:40:02.940 --> 00:40:03.340
 this

00:40:03.340 --> 00:40:03.920
 I can't

00:40:03.920 --> 00:40:04.119
 do

00:40:04.119 --> 00:40:04.500
 this

00:40:04.500 --> 00:40:05.380
 I can't

00:40:05.380 --> 00:40:05.599
 do

00:40:05.599 --> 00:40:05.980
 that

00:40:05.980 --> 00:40:06.480
 the

00:40:06.480 --> 00:40:06.760
 same

00:40:06.760 --> 00:40:07.159
 Spirit

00:40:07.159 --> 00:40:07.380
 that

00:40:07.380 --> 00:40:07.599
 raised

00:40:07.599 --> 00:40:08.039
 Christ

00:40:08.039 --> 00:40:08.260
 from

00:40:08.260 --> 00:40:08.400
 the

00:40:08.400 --> 00:40:08.780
 dead

00:40:08.780 --> 00:40:11.019
 lives

00:40:11.019 --> 00:40:11.360
 inside

00:40:11.360 --> 00:40:11.619
 of you

00:40:11.619 --> 00:40:12.000
 and me

00:40:12.000 --> 00:40:13.220
 what a

00:40:13.220 --> 00:40:13.619
 gift

00:40:13.619 --> 00:40:14.340
 the Bible

00:40:14.340 --> 00:40:14.820
 calls that

00:40:14.820 --> 00:40:15.320
 a gift

00:40:15.320 --> 00:40:16.240
 I don't

00:40:16.240 --> 00:40:16.619
 think there's

00:40:16.619 --> 00:40:16.900
 a better

00:40:16.900 --> 00:40:17.340
 one

00:40:17.340 --> 00:40:18.800
 right

00:40:18.800 --> 00:40:19.940
 2 Corinthians

00:40:19.940 --> 00:40:20.579
 1 8

00:40:20.579 --> 00:40:21.059
 to 9

00:40:21.059 --> 00:40:21.960
 we do not

00:40:21.960 --> 00:40:22.320
 want you

00:40:22.320 --> 00:40:22.500
 to be

00:40:22.500 --> 00:40:22.760
 unaware

00:40:22.760 --> 00:40:23.280
 brothers

00:40:23.280 --> 00:40:23.579
 of the

00:40:23.579 --> 00:40:24.019
 affliction

00:40:24.019 --> 00:40:24.760
 we experienced

00:40:24.760 --> 00:40:25.340
 in Asia

00:40:25.340 --> 00:40:26.579
 listen to

00:40:26.579 --> 00:40:26.820
 him

00:40:26.820 --> 00:40:28.679
 Paul's

00:40:28.679 --> 00:40:29.000
 having a

00:40:29.000 --> 00:40:29.480
 bad day

00:40:29.480 --> 00:40:29.820
 here

00:40:29.820 --> 00:40:30.500
 okay

00:40:30.500 --> 00:40:31.659
 you think

00:40:31.659 --> 00:40:32.240
 well Paul's

00:40:32.239 --> 00:40:32.639
 kind of a

00:40:32.639 --> 00:40:32.879
 super

00:40:32.879 --> 00:40:33.259
 Christian

00:40:33.259 --> 00:40:33.739
 I can't

00:40:33.739 --> 00:40:33.879
 really

00:40:33.879 --> 00:40:34.159
 relate

00:40:34.159 --> 00:40:34.319
 to

00:40:34.319 --> 00:40:34.599
 Paul

00:40:34.599 --> 00:40:35.259
 he's

00:40:35.259 --> 00:40:35.519
 got it

00:40:35.519 --> 00:40:35.659
 all

00:40:35.659 --> 00:40:35.919
 pulled

00:40:35.919 --> 00:40:36.339
 together

00:40:36.339 --> 00:40:37.259
 so

00:40:37.259 --> 00:40:37.899
 that's

00:40:37.899 --> 00:40:38.119
 cool

00:40:38.119 --> 00:40:38.459
 Paul

00:40:38.459 --> 00:40:39.019
 but I

00:40:39.019 --> 00:40:39.299
 can't

00:40:39.299 --> 00:40:39.459
 really

00:40:39.459 --> 00:40:39.799
 relate

00:40:39.799 --> 00:40:40.459
 well

00:40:40.459 --> 00:40:41.019
 read this

00:40:41.019 --> 00:40:41.399
 verse

00:40:41.399 --> 00:40:43.139
 we don't

00:40:43.139 --> 00:40:43.559
 want you to be

00:40:43.559 --> 00:40:43.779
 unaware

00:40:43.779 --> 00:40:44.500
 brothers of the

00:40:44.500 --> 00:40:45.000
 affliction we

00:40:45.000 --> 00:40:45.559
 experienced in

00:40:45.559 --> 00:40:46.279
 Asia for

00:40:46.279 --> 00:40:48.199
 we were so

00:40:48.199 --> 00:40:49.519
 utterly burdened

00:40:49.519 --> 00:40:49.739
!

00:40:49.739 --> 00:40:50.139
 beyond our

00:40:50.139 --> 00:40:50.639
 strength

00:40:50.639 --> 00:40:51.279
 that we

00:40:51.279 --> 00:40:52.000
 despaired of

00:40:52.000 --> 00:40:52.899
 life itself

00:40:52.899 --> 00:40:55.839
 sounds pretty

00:40:55.839 --> 00:40:56.259
 low

00:40:56.259 --> 00:40:58.259
 indeed we felt

00:40:58.259 --> 00:40:58.619
 that we had

00:40:58.619 --> 00:40:59.119
 received the

00:40:59.119 --> 00:40:59.639
 sentence of

00:40:59.639 --> 00:41:00.359
 death but

00:41:00.360 --> 00:41:00.940
 that was to

00:41:00.940 --> 00:41:01.980
 make us rely

00:41:01.980 --> 00:41:02.440
 not on

00:41:02.440 --> 00:41:03.500
 ourselves but

00:41:03.500 --> 00:41:04.120
 on God who

00:41:04.120 --> 00:41:04.660
 raises the

00:41:04.660 --> 00:41:05.000
 dead

00:41:05.000 --> 00:41:05.700
 when was the

00:41:05.700 --> 00:41:06.200
 last time you

00:41:06.200 --> 00:41:06.660
 thought that

00:41:06.660 --> 00:41:06.980
 way?

00:41:07.599 --> 00:41:08.079
 you're thinking

00:41:08.079 --> 00:41:09.180
 my life is so

00:41:09.180 --> 00:41:10.039
 hard my life is

00:41:10.039 --> 00:41:10.920
 so tough this

00:41:10.920 --> 00:41:11.579
 thing is breaking

00:41:11.579 --> 00:41:12.260
 me I can't

00:41:12.260 --> 00:41:12.720
 sleep I'm

00:41:12.720 --> 00:41:13.280
 stressed I'm

00:41:13.280 --> 00:41:13.740
 anxious

00:41:13.740 --> 00:41:14.660
 when was the

00:41:14.660 --> 00:41:15.240
 last time you

00:41:15.240 --> 00:41:16.440
 said but

00:41:16.440 --> 00:41:17.940
 that was to

00:41:17.940 --> 00:41:18.620
 make me rely

00:41:18.620 --> 00:41:19.440
 not on myself

00:41:19.440 --> 00:41:20.099
 but on God

00:41:20.099 --> 00:41:20.780
 who raises the

00:41:20.780 --> 00:41:21.079
 dead

00:41:21.079 --> 00:41:22.280
 you believe

00:41:22.280 --> 00:41:22.660
 that?

00:41:23.039 --> 00:41:23.500
 do you thank

00:41:23.500 --> 00:41:24.039
 God for those

00:41:24.039 --> 00:41:24.640
 trials so that

00:41:24.640 --> 00:41:25.660
 we don't rely on

00:41:25.660 --> 00:41:26.300
 ourselves but we

00:41:26.300 --> 00:41:27.539
 rely on God who

00:41:27.539 --> 00:41:28.360
 raises the dead?

00:41:28.360 --> 00:41:30.300
 on those days

00:41:30.300 --> 00:41:30.980
 when you feel so

00:41:30.980 --> 00:41:31.860
 utterly burdened

00:41:31.860 --> 00:41:32.340
 beyond your

00:41:32.340 --> 00:41:33.360
 strength that you

00:41:33.360 --> 00:41:34.079
 despair of life

00:41:34.079 --> 00:41:34.539
 itself?

00:41:35.039 --> 00:41:35.500
 that's what Paul

00:41:35.500 --> 00:41:35.900
 said

00:41:35.900 --> 00:41:38.400
 Luke 11 11

00:41:38.400 --> 00:41:39.280
 the 13 says

00:41:39.280 --> 00:41:39.760
 which of you

00:41:39.760 --> 00:41:40.400
 fathers if your

00:41:40.400 --> 00:41:41.220
 son asks for a

00:41:41.220 --> 00:41:42.180
 fish will give

00:41:42.180 --> 00:41:42.740
 him a snake

00:41:42.740 --> 00:41:43.280
 instead?

00:41:44.620 --> 00:41:45.039
 or if he asks

00:41:45.039 --> 00:41:45.760
 for an egg will

00:41:45.760 --> 00:41:46.180
 give him a

00:41:46.180 --> 00:41:46.700
 scorpion?

00:41:47.500 --> 00:41:48.000
 if you then

00:41:48.000 --> 00:41:48.500
 though you're

00:41:48.500 --> 00:41:49.200
 evil know how

00:41:49.200 --> 00:41:49.760
 to give good

00:41:49.760 --> 00:41:50.280
 gifts to your

00:41:50.280 --> 00:41:51.360
 children how

00:41:51.360 --> 00:41:51.920
 much more will

00:41:51.920 --> 00:41:52.620
 your father in

00:41:52.620 --> 00:41:53.240
 heaven give the

00:41:53.240 --> 00:41:54.340
 Holy Spirit to

00:41:54.340 --> 00:41:55.059
 those who ask

00:41:55.059 --> 00:41:55.260
 him?

00:41:55.880 --> 00:41:56.500
 I know most

00:41:56.500 --> 00:41:56.980
 of you parents

00:41:56.980 --> 00:41:57.440
 have had your

00:41:57.440 --> 00:41:58.099
 kid ask for an

00:41:58.099 --> 00:41:58.579
 egg at one

00:41:58.579 --> 00:41:59.119
 point in time

00:41:59.119 --> 00:42:00.099
 and you've

00:42:00.099 --> 00:42:00.679
 probably never

00:42:00.679 --> 00:42:01.119
 thought of

00:42:01.119 --> 00:42:01.659
 giving them a

00:42:01.659 --> 00:42:02.119
 scorpion

00:42:02.119 --> 00:42:04.159
 you know son

00:42:04.159 --> 00:42:04.719
 instead of an

00:42:04.719 --> 00:42:05.279
 egg this morning

00:42:05.279 --> 00:42:05.839
 I'm just gonna

00:42:05.839 --> 00:42:06.339
 give you a

00:42:06.339 --> 00:42:07.179
 live scorpion

00:42:07.179 --> 00:42:08.279
 like you'd

00:42:08.279 --> 00:42:09.119
 never do that

00:42:09.119 --> 00:42:10.480
 you think

00:42:10.480 --> 00:42:12.420
 you're not that

00:42:12.420 --> 00:42:13.000
 great of a

00:42:13.000 --> 00:42:13.639
 father compared

00:42:13.639 --> 00:42:14.139
 to God

00:42:14.139 --> 00:42:15.819
 like you compare

00:42:15.819 --> 00:42:16.619
 yourself to God

00:42:16.619 --> 00:42:18.799
 like you're

00:42:18.799 --> 00:42:19.940
 nothing and

00:42:19.940 --> 00:42:20.940
 even you in

00:42:20.940 --> 00:42:21.539
 your lack of

00:42:21.539 --> 00:42:22.259
 good fathering

00:42:22.259 --> 00:42:22.880
 would never give

00:42:22.880 --> 00:42:23.679
 a scorpion to

00:42:23.679 --> 00:42:24.319
 a kid asking

00:42:24.319 --> 00:42:24.940
 for an egg

00:42:24.940 --> 00:42:26.440
 how much more

00:42:26.440 --> 00:42:27.260
 do you think

00:42:27.260 --> 00:42:27.860
 God is going

00:42:27.860 --> 00:42:28.260
 to give the

00:42:28.260 --> 00:42:29.019
 Holy Spirit to

00:42:29.019 --> 00:42:29.420
 you when you

00:42:29.420 --> 00:42:30.079
 ask it from

00:42:30.079 --> 00:42:30.360
 him?

00:42:30.960 --> 00:42:31.380
 how much

00:42:31.380 --> 00:42:31.780
 more?

00:42:32.280 --> 00:42:32.639
 how much

00:42:32.639 --> 00:42:33.000
 more?

00:42:33.720 --> 00:42:34.340
 why do you

00:42:34.340 --> 00:42:34.760
 doubt that

00:42:34.760 --> 00:42:35.139
 God's gonna

00:42:35.139 --> 00:42:35.519
 give you your

00:42:35.519 --> 00:42:35.960
 spirit?

00:42:36.539 --> 00:42:37.340
 his spirit

00:42:37.340 --> 00:42:37.700
 I mean

00:42:37.700 --> 00:42:38.780
 well I

00:42:38.780 --> 00:42:39.380
 you know

00:42:39.380 --> 00:42:41.360
 I'm not

00:42:41.360 --> 00:42:41.720
 worthy

00:42:41.720 --> 00:42:42.519
 I haven't

00:42:42.519 --> 00:42:42.720
 done

00:42:42.720 --> 00:42:44.240
 hogwash

00:42:44.240 --> 00:42:44.740
 that's that

00:42:44.740 --> 00:42:45.179
 none of that

00:42:45.179 --> 00:42:45.579
 is even

00:42:45.579 --> 00:42:46.039
 required

00:42:46.039 --> 00:42:46.380
 none of

00:42:46.380 --> 00:42:46.820
 that's in

00:42:46.820 --> 00:42:47.360
 here

00:42:47.360 --> 00:42:48.559
 you gotta

00:42:48.559 --> 00:42:49.019
 believe he's

00:42:49.019 --> 00:42:49.539
 your father

00:42:49.539 --> 00:42:49.960
 you gotta

00:42:49.960 --> 00:42:50.500
 believe you're

00:42:50.500 --> 00:42:51.059
 his son

00:42:51.059 --> 00:42:51.619
 that you're

00:42:51.619 --> 00:42:52.159
 his child

00:42:52.159 --> 00:42:52.799
 you have

00:42:52.799 --> 00:42:53.460
 the rights

00:42:53.460 --> 00:42:54.299
 to be called

00:42:54.299 --> 00:42:54.759
 a child

00:42:54.759 --> 00:42:55.259
 of God

00:42:55.259 --> 00:42:55.799
 and then

00:42:55.799 --> 00:42:56.139
 when you

00:42:56.139 --> 00:42:56.599
 ask your

00:42:56.599 --> 00:42:57.019
 father for

00:42:57.019 --> 00:42:57.500
 the spirit

00:42:57.500 --> 00:42:58.079
 you know

00:42:58.079 --> 00:42:58.299
 what he

00:42:58.299 --> 00:42:58.659
 does?

00:42:58.799 --> 00:42:59.339
 he gives

00:42:59.339 --> 00:42:59.679
 it to

00:42:59.679 --> 00:42:59.980
 you

00:42:59.980 --> 00:43:01.559
 he gives

00:43:01.559 --> 00:43:02.299
 you his

00:43:02.299 --> 00:43:02.759
 spirit

00:43:02.759 --> 00:43:03.699
 he pours out

00:43:03.699 --> 00:43:04.079
 his spirit

00:43:04.079 --> 00:43:04.619
 upon you

00:43:04.619 --> 00:43:05.059
 why?

00:43:05.179 --> 00:43:05.420
 because he's

00:43:05.420 --> 00:43:05.659
 a good

00:43:05.659 --> 00:43:06.039
 father

00:43:06.039 --> 00:43:06.920
 not because

00:43:06.920 --> 00:43:07.219
 you're a

00:43:07.219 --> 00:43:07.719
 good son

00:43:07.719 --> 00:43:09.579
 because he's

00:43:09.579 --> 00:43:09.859
 a good

00:43:09.859 --> 00:43:10.299
 father

00:43:10.299 --> 00:43:12.299
 that's his

00:43:12.299 --> 00:43:12.659
 word

00:43:12.659 --> 00:43:13.379
 lastly

00:43:13.379 --> 00:43:14.239
 number five

00:43:14.239 --> 00:43:16.079
 grace driven

00:43:16.079 --> 00:43:16.940
 capacity

00:43:16.940 --> 00:43:17.659
 grace driven

00:43:17.659 --> 00:43:18.279
 capacity

00:43:18.279 --> 00:43:19.179
 the bible

00:43:19.179 --> 00:43:19.859
 talks about

00:43:19.859 --> 00:43:20.980
 I think

00:43:20.980 --> 00:43:22.000
 you could

00:43:22.000 --> 00:43:22.300
 argue with

00:43:22.300 --> 00:43:22.440
 me on

00:43:22.440 --> 00:43:22.599
 this

00:43:22.599 --> 00:43:22.800
 but I

00:43:22.800 --> 00:43:22.900
 think

00:43:22.900 --> 00:43:23.079
 there's

00:43:23.079 --> 00:43:23.539
 two kinds

00:43:23.539 --> 00:43:23.980
 of grace

00:43:23.980 --> 00:43:24.480
 that are

00:43:24.480 --> 00:43:24.840
 talked about

00:43:24.840 --> 00:43:25.179
 in the bible

00:43:25.179 --> 00:43:25.780
 number one

00:43:25.780 --> 00:43:26.719
 the one that we

00:43:26.719 --> 00:43:27.219
 think of a lot

00:43:27.219 --> 00:43:27.619
 of times

00:43:27.619 --> 00:43:27.940
 it's the

00:43:27.940 --> 00:43:28.519
 ephesians 2

00:43:28.519 --> 00:43:29.039
 verse 8

00:43:29.039 --> 00:43:30.019
 god's undeserved

00:43:30.019 --> 00:43:30.019


00:43:30.019 --> 00:43:30.740
 forgiving love

00:43:30.740 --> 00:43:31.420
 you know

00:43:31.420 --> 00:43:32.340
 it's grace

00:43:32.340 --> 00:43:32.679
 you have been

00:43:32.679 --> 00:43:33.139
 saved through

00:43:33.139 --> 00:43:33.440
 faith

00:43:33.440 --> 00:43:33.800
 this is not

00:43:33.800 --> 00:43:34.300
 of yourselves

00:43:34.300 --> 00:43:35.019
 the gift

00:43:35.019 --> 00:43:35.360
 of god

00:43:35.360 --> 00:43:35.699
 not by

00:43:35.699 --> 00:43:35.960
 works

00:43:35.960 --> 00:43:36.260
 that no

00:43:36.260 --> 00:43:36.539
 one can

00:43:36.539 --> 00:43:36.800
 boast

00:43:36.800 --> 00:43:37.099
 like

00:43:37.099 --> 00:43:38.059
 grace

00:43:38.059 --> 00:43:38.340
 you're

00:43:38.340 --> 00:43:39.119
 saving grace

00:43:39.119 --> 00:43:39.960
 that was

00:43:39.960 --> 00:43:40.559
 undeserving

00:43:40.559 --> 00:43:41.079
 that came

00:43:41.079 --> 00:43:41.380
 to you

00:43:41.380 --> 00:43:41.800
 and saved

00:43:41.800 --> 00:43:42.059
 you from

00:43:42.059 --> 00:43:42.519
 your sins

00:43:42.519 --> 00:43:42.800
 right?

00:43:43.360 --> 00:43:43.780
 there's that

00:43:43.780 --> 00:43:44.099
 kind of

00:43:44.099 --> 00:43:44.400
 grace

00:43:44.400 --> 00:43:45.159
 but the bible

00:43:45.159 --> 00:43:45.880
 also talks

00:43:45.880 --> 00:43:46.300
 about another

00:43:46.300 --> 00:43:46.599
 kind of

00:43:46.599 --> 00:43:46.840
 grace

00:43:46.840 --> 00:43:47.420
 John Piper

00:43:47.420 --> 00:43:47.780
 puts it

00:43:47.780 --> 00:43:48.260
 this way

00:43:48.260 --> 00:43:49.880
 he describes

00:43:49.880 --> 00:43:50.280
 it as an

00:43:50.280 --> 00:43:50.780
 influence

00:43:50.780 --> 00:43:51.780
 or a force

00:43:51.780 --> 00:43:52.619
 or a power

00:43:52.619 --> 00:43:53.740
 or an acting

00:43:53.740 --> 00:43:54.220
 of god

00:43:54.220 --> 00:43:54.780
 that works

00:43:54.780 --> 00:43:55.519
 in us

00:43:55.519 --> 00:43:56.440
 to change

00:43:56.440 --> 00:43:57.380
 our capacities

00:43:57.380 --> 00:43:58.180
 for work

00:43:58.180 --> 00:43:59.200
 and suffering

00:43:59.200 --> 00:44:00.300
 and obedience

00:44:00.300 --> 00:44:01.860
 Paul Tripp

00:44:01.860 --> 00:44:02.260
 says it

00:44:02.260 --> 00:44:02.740
 this way

00:44:02.740 --> 00:44:03.500
 grace

00:44:03.500 --> 00:44:04.220
 reaches us

00:44:04.220 --> 00:44:04.640
 where we

00:44:04.640 --> 00:44:05.080
 are

00:44:05.080 --> 00:44:05.900
 and takes

00:44:05.900 --> 00:44:06.260
 us where

00:44:06.260 --> 00:44:07.000
 God wants

00:44:07.000 --> 00:44:07.720
 us to be

00:44:07.720 --> 00:44:08.660
 you see

00:44:08.660 --> 00:44:09.360
 God's not

00:44:09.360 --> 00:44:10.160
 simply content

00:44:10.160 --> 00:44:10.820
 to give us

00:44:10.820 --> 00:44:11.400
 salvation

00:44:11.400 --> 00:44:12.560
 and then leave

00:44:12.560 --> 00:44:13.120
 us alone

00:44:13.120 --> 00:44:14.060
 until eternity

00:44:14.060 --> 00:44:15.380
 rather he

00:44:15.380 --> 00:44:15.940
 wants us to

00:44:15.940 --> 00:44:16.519
 become more

00:44:16.519 --> 00:44:17.320
 like his son

00:44:17.320 --> 00:44:18.280
 and work for

00:44:18.280 --> 00:44:18.880
 the furtherance

00:44:18.880 --> 00:44:19.380
 of his kingdom

00:44:19.380 --> 00:44:20.180
 right here

00:44:20.180 --> 00:44:21.180
 right now

00:44:21.180 --> 00:44:22.800
 but remaining

00:44:22.800 --> 00:44:23.900
 sin leaves us

00:44:23.900 --> 00:44:24.940
 lame and weak

00:44:24.940 --> 00:44:25.720
 and unable

00:44:25.720 --> 00:44:27.660
 God's grace

00:44:27.660 --> 00:44:28.600
 intervenes

00:44:28.600 --> 00:44:29.260
 to give us

00:44:29.260 --> 00:44:29.860
 power

00:44:29.860 --> 00:44:31.000
 and strength

00:44:31.000 --> 00:44:32.280
 it gives us

00:44:32.280 --> 00:44:32.900
 the ability

00:44:32.900 --> 00:44:33.320
 to do

00:44:33.320 --> 00:44:33.660
 what we're

00:44:33.660 --> 00:44:34.559
 called to do

00:44:34.559 --> 00:44:35.519
 but what

00:44:35.519 --> 00:44:36.000
 sorry

00:44:36.000 --> 00:44:36.500
 it gives us

00:44:36.500 --> 00:44:36.920
 the ability

00:44:36.920 --> 00:44:37.320
 to do

00:44:37.320 --> 00:44:37.700
 what we're

00:44:37.700 --> 00:44:38.539
 called to do

00:44:38.539 --> 00:44:39.320
 but what we

00:44:39.320 --> 00:44:39.760
 could never

00:44:39.760 --> 00:44:40.620
 do on our own

00:44:40.620 --> 00:44:42.360
 it gives us

00:44:42.360 --> 00:44:42.780
 the ability

00:44:42.780 --> 00:44:43.019
 to do

00:44:43.019 --> 00:44:43.260
 what we're

00:44:43.260 --> 00:44:43.840
 called to do

00:44:43.840 --> 00:44:44.360
 but what we

00:44:44.360 --> 00:44:44.800
 could never

00:44:44.800 --> 00:44:46.160
 do on our own

00:44:46.160 --> 00:44:47.000
 that kind

00:44:47.000 --> 00:44:47.559
 of grace

00:44:47.559 --> 00:44:49.220
 and we often

00:44:49.220 --> 00:44:50.160
 will you ever

00:44:50.160 --> 00:44:50.660
 hear someone

00:44:50.660 --> 00:44:51.280
 say I don't

00:44:51.280 --> 00:44:51.780
 have grace

00:44:51.780 --> 00:44:52.280
 for that

00:44:52.280 --> 00:44:54.840
 I don't have

00:44:54.840 --> 00:44:55.660
 grace for that

00:44:55.660 --> 00:44:56.599
 2 Corinthians

00:44:56.599 --> 00:44:57.620
 12 9-10

00:44:57.620 --> 00:44:58.420
 says

00:44:58.420 --> 00:44:59.380
 speaks right

00:44:59.380 --> 00:44:59.940
 into that

00:44:59.940 --> 00:45:01.840
 he said

00:45:01.840 --> 00:45:02.119
 to me

00:45:02.119 --> 00:45:03.320
 my grace

00:45:03.320 --> 00:45:04.400
 is sufficient

00:45:04.400 --> 00:45:05.280
 for you

00:45:05.280 --> 00:45:06.880
 my power

00:45:06.880 --> 00:45:07.119
 is made

00:45:07.119 --> 00:45:07.640
 perfect in

00:45:07.640 --> 00:45:08.000
 weakness

00:45:08.000 --> 00:45:08.559
 therefore I

00:45:08.559 --> 00:45:08.960
 will boast

00:45:08.960 --> 00:45:09.320
 all the more

00:45:09.320 --> 00:45:09.960
 gladly about

00:45:09.960 --> 00:45:10.579
 my weaknesses

00:45:10.579 --> 00:45:11.539
 so that

00:45:11.539 --> 00:45:12.140
 Christ's power

00:45:12.140 --> 00:45:12.860
 may rest on

00:45:12.860 --> 00:45:12.960
 me

00:45:12.960 --> 00:45:13.440
 that is why

00:45:13.440 --> 00:45:14.119
 for Christ's

00:45:14.119 --> 00:45:14.440
 sake

00:45:14.440 --> 00:45:15.340
 I delight

00:45:15.340 --> 00:45:15.980
 in weaknesses

00:45:15.980 --> 00:45:16.960
 and insults

00:45:16.960 --> 00:45:17.539
 and hardships

00:45:17.539 --> 00:45:18.980
 and persecutions

00:45:18.980 --> 00:45:20.260
 and difficulties

00:45:20.260 --> 00:45:21.500
 for when I'm

00:45:21.500 --> 00:45:21.960
 weak

00:45:21.960 --> 00:45:22.800
 then I am

00:45:22.800 --> 00:45:23.320
 strong

00:45:23.320 --> 00:45:24.840
 saying I

00:45:24.840 --> 00:45:25.240
 don't have

00:45:25.240 --> 00:45:25.840
 capacity

00:45:25.840 --> 00:45:26.220
 is the

00:45:26.220 --> 00:45:26.559
 opposite

00:45:26.559 --> 00:45:26.940
 of this

00:45:26.940 --> 00:45:27.340
 verse

00:45:27.340 --> 00:45:28.820
 says my

00:45:28.820 --> 00:45:29.280
 grace is

00:45:29.280 --> 00:45:29.620
 sufficient

00:45:29.620 --> 00:45:30.019
 for you

00:45:30.019 --> 00:45:30.480
 my grace

00:45:30.480 --> 00:45:31.059
 is enough

00:45:31.059 --> 00:45:31.680
 you're not

00:45:31.680 --> 00:45:31.980
 enough

00:45:31.980 --> 00:45:32.280
 but my

00:45:32.280 --> 00:45:32.840
 grace is

00:45:32.840 --> 00:45:34.180
 my grace

00:45:34.180 --> 00:45:34.579
 is

00:45:34.579 --> 00:45:36.860
 which is

00:45:36.860 --> 00:45:37.019
 it

00:45:37.019 --> 00:45:38.280
 when you think

00:45:38.280 --> 00:45:38.820
 of weaknesses

00:45:38.820 --> 00:45:40.120
 insults

00:45:40.120 --> 00:45:40.800
 hardships

00:45:40.800 --> 00:45:41.960
 persecutions

00:45:41.960 --> 00:45:42.800
 and calamities

00:45:42.800 --> 00:45:44.880
 and difficulties

00:45:44.880 --> 00:45:46.500
 are they

00:45:46.500 --> 00:45:47.240
 excuses

00:45:47.240 --> 00:45:48.420
 or delights

00:45:48.420 --> 00:45:49.900
 well I

00:45:49.900 --> 00:45:50.400
 can't do

00:45:50.400 --> 00:45:50.680
 this

00:45:50.680 --> 00:45:51.539
 because I'm

00:45:51.539 --> 00:45:51.820
 weak

00:45:51.820 --> 00:45:52.440
 I can't

00:45:52.440 --> 00:45:52.840
 do this

00:45:52.840 --> 00:45:53.400
 because I'm

00:45:53.400 --> 00:45:53.800
 insulted

00:45:53.800 --> 00:45:54.740
 it's hard

00:45:54.740 --> 00:45:56.420
 persecutions

00:45:56.420 --> 00:45:56.980
 calamities

00:45:56.980 --> 00:45:57.780
 I can't

00:45:57.780 --> 00:45:58.260
 do this

00:45:58.260 --> 00:45:59.079
 is it

00:45:59.079 --> 00:45:59.880
 your excuse

00:45:59.880 --> 00:46:00.700
 or is it

00:46:00.700 --> 00:46:01.460
 your delights

00:46:01.460 --> 00:46:03.300
 Paul says

00:46:03.300 --> 00:46:04.200
 that is why

00:46:04.200 --> 00:46:04.920
 for Christ's

00:46:04.920 --> 00:46:05.140
 sake

00:46:05.140 --> 00:46:05.860
 I delight

00:46:05.860 --> 00:46:06.539
 in weaknesses

00:46:06.539 --> 00:46:07.680
 and insults

00:46:07.680 --> 00:46:08.140
 and hardships

00:46:08.140 --> 00:46:08.960
 and persecutions

00:46:08.960 --> 00:46:09.640
 and difficulties

00:46:09.640 --> 00:46:11.059
 for when I am

00:46:11.059 --> 00:46:11.440
 weak

00:46:11.440 --> 00:46:12.340
 then I am

00:46:12.340 --> 00:46:12.820
 strong

00:46:12.820 --> 00:46:14.119
 you delight

00:46:14.119 --> 00:46:14.380
 in your

00:46:14.380 --> 00:46:14.780
 weaknesses

00:46:14.780 --> 00:46:15.700
 when you know

00:46:15.700 --> 00:46:15.980
 that they're

00:46:15.980 --> 00:46:16.480
 the pathway

00:46:16.480 --> 00:46:17.140
 to strength

00:46:17.140 --> 00:46:19.060
 this is an

00:46:19.060 --> 00:46:19.519
 upside down

00:46:19.519 --> 00:46:19.800
 kingdom

00:46:19.800 --> 00:46:20.320
 this is a

00:46:20.320 --> 00:46:20.940
 counterintuitive

00:46:20.940 --> 00:46:21.320
 thought

00:46:21.320 --> 00:46:21.720
 but it's

00:46:21.720 --> 00:46:22.080
 true

00:46:22.080 --> 00:46:23.760
 Hebrews 4

00:46:23.760 --> 00:46:24.540
 16 says

00:46:24.540 --> 00:46:25.019
 then let us

00:46:25.019 --> 00:46:25.640
 with confidence

00:46:25.640 --> 00:46:26.160
 draw near

00:46:26.160 --> 00:46:27.060
 to the throne

00:46:27.060 --> 00:46:28.120
 of grace

00:46:28.120 --> 00:46:28.900
 so that we

00:46:28.900 --> 00:46:29.500
 may receive

00:46:29.500 --> 00:46:29.860
 mercy

00:46:29.860 --> 00:46:30.540
 and find

00:46:30.540 --> 00:46:31.120
 grace to

00:46:31.120 --> 00:46:31.440
 help

00:46:31.440 --> 00:46:32.260
 in time

00:46:32.260 --> 00:46:32.700
 of need

00:46:32.700 --> 00:46:33.180
 you hear

00:46:33.180 --> 00:46:33.760
 that phrase

00:46:33.760 --> 00:46:34.580
 grace to

 help

00:46:34.960 --> 00:46:35.820
 grace to

00:46:35.820 --> 00:46:36.040
 help

00:46:36.040 --> 00:46:36.320
 is a

00:46:36.320 --> 00:46:36.540
 different

00:46:36.540 --> 00:46:36.960
 kind of

00:46:36.960 --> 00:46:37.220
 grace

00:46:37.220 --> 00:46:37.400
 than

00:46:37.400 --> 00:46:37.660
 grace

00:46:37.660 --> 00:46:38.320
 to save

00:46:38.320 --> 00:46:39.540
 there's

00:46:39.540 --> 00:46:39.840
 a grace

00:46:39.840 --> 00:46:40.519
 to save

00:46:40.519 --> 00:46:41.360
 that saves

00:46:41.360 --> 00:46:41.600
 you from

00:46:41.600 --> 00:46:42.120
 your sins

00:46:42.120 --> 00:46:42.620
 and then

00:46:42.620 --> 00:46:42.880
 there's a

00:46:42.880 --> 00:46:43.100
 different

00:46:43.100 --> 00:46:43.420
 kind of

00:46:43.420 --> 00:46:43.640
 grace

00:46:43.640 --> 00:46:44.000
 that is

00:46:44.000 --> 00:46:44.280
 there to

00:46:44.280 --> 00:46:44.680
 help

00:46:44.680 --> 00:46:45.240
 it's

00:46:45.240 --> 00:46:45.720
 God's

00:46:45.720 --> 00:46:46.480
 power

00:46:46.480 --> 00:46:46.940
 it's

00:46:46.940 --> 00:46:47.360
 like this

00:46:47.360 --> 00:46:48.200
 spiritual

00:46:48.200 --> 00:46:48.740
 stuff

00:46:48.740 --> 00:46:49.100
 that's

00:46:49.100 --> 00:46:49.340
 given

00:46:49.340 --> 00:46:49.620
 to you

00:46:49.620 --> 00:46:49.980
 that gives

00:46:49.980 --> 00:46:50.260
 you the

00:46:50.260 --> 00:46:50.600
 ability

00:46:50.600 --> 00:46:51.100
 to do

00:46:51.100 --> 00:46:51.740
 what God's

00:46:51.740 --> 00:46:52.100
 called you

00:46:52.100 --> 00:46:52.340
 to do

00:46:52.340 --> 00:46:52.620
 that you

00:46:52.620 --> 00:46:53.100
 couldn't do

00:46:53.100 --> 00:46:53.380
 on your

00:46:53.380 --> 00:46:53.660
 own

00:46:53.660 --> 00:46:54.940
 okay

00:46:54.940 --> 00:46:56.340
 this is

00:46:56.340 --> 00:46:57.019
 grace to
