WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.899
 Well, we're going to begin our worship by singing to God's praise.

00:00:04.080 --> 00:00:11.880
 We're going to sing in Psalm 90, in the Scottish Psalter version, Psalm 90, page 350.

00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:15.419
 We're singing from verse 13 down to the end of the psalm.

00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:22.620
 Turn yet again to us, O Lord, how long thus shall it be?

00:00:23.080 --> 00:00:26.679
 Let it repent thee now for those that servants are to thee.

00:00:26.679 --> 00:00:29.960
 O with thy tender mercies, Lord, as early satisfy.

00:00:30.660 --> 00:00:34.700
 So we rejoice shall all our days and still be glad in thee.

00:00:34.759 --> 00:00:37.320
 We'll sing from verse 13 down to the end of the psalm.

00:00:37.539 --> 00:00:38.480
 To God's praise.

00:00:56.679 --> 00:01:14.680
 Let it repent thee now for those that servants are to thee.

00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:31.680
 O with thy tender mercies, Lord, as early satisfy.

00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:49.680
 So we rejoice shall all our days and still be glad in thee.

00:01:49.680 --> 00:02:08.460
 According to the days of the day, when we leave our heart,

00:02:08.460 --> 00:02:25.460
 And years when we leave our sin, So you have made us not.

00:02:25.460 --> 00:02:42.460
 O let thy word and fire appear, Thy servants face before,

00:02:42.460 --> 00:03:00.460
 And show unto their children here, Thy glory evermore.

00:03:00.460 --> 00:03:18.460
 And let thy beauty of the Lord, Our God, the earths of home,

00:03:18.460 --> 00:03:35.460
 Our heavenly holy world, Our holy world, Our holy world,

00:03:35.460 --> 00:03:40.460
 Our holy world, our holy world, Our holy world, our holy world,

00:03:40.460 --> 00:03:42.159
 Let's bow our heads in a word of prayer.

00:03:42.219 --> 00:03:42.860
 Let us pray.

00:03:42.860 --> 00:03:52.620
 Lord our gracious God as we come to you we thank you for the assurance that you will meet with us

00:03:52.620 --> 00:04:00.000
 as we seek to meet with you that as we come in your name as we come with praise on our lips as

00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:06.360
 we come with that desire to know you and to understand you more we pray that you will help

00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:12.820
 us oh Lord and we thank you for these words that we have sung together they remind us of what we

00:04:12.819 --> 00:04:18.579
 need even today that you would turn again towards us Lord that you would remember us that you would

00:04:18.579 --> 00:04:25.279
 revive your work in our midst and especially these words that we sung at the end of the psalm

00:04:25.279 --> 00:04:32.279
 that you would let the beauty of the Lord our God be us upon we pray that today as we worship you as

00:04:32.279 --> 00:04:38.139
 we praise your name that your beauty would be upon us that we would know your presence and your favor

00:04:38.139 --> 00:04:44.560
 with us we ask that for all of us together here from the youngest to the oldest we pray for all

00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:50.120
 our families and our loved ones as we commit them to you we pray oh Lord for our young people

00:04:50.120 --> 00:04:57.019
 thankful for this time of holiday now that they might enjoy a time of refreshment and rest both

00:04:57.019 --> 00:05:02.519
 the children and teachers from the Sunday school and the day school alike Lord that your beauty would

00:05:02.519 --> 00:05:08.539
 be upon each of them throughout these days keep them safe and watch over them and continue to bless

00:05:08.539 --> 00:05:14.339
 the young ones as they meet in the creche and the tweenies as well that we would know Lord your favor

00:05:14.339 --> 00:05:19.919
 upon them there as well so continue with us at this time bless us as we go on in your name

00:05:19.919 --> 00:05:27.599
 guide us and keep us and pardon all our sin as we ask it all in Jesus name and for his sake amen

00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:37.320
 but just a word to the young ones before someone will leave for the tweenies just thinking about

00:05:37.320 --> 00:05:42.980
 the holiday times just now it's always good to be on holiday and I'm sure some of you may be

00:05:42.980 --> 00:05:48.820
 traveling around different places over these coming weeks I'm sure many have already gone away from the

00:05:48.820 --> 00:05:56.040
 island traveling to holiday destinations in different parts and as you travel around maybe you're traveling on

00:05:56.040 --> 00:06:02.520
 the roads and you're traveling to different places maybe you're traveling from Ullapool to Inverness

00:06:02.520 --> 00:06:09.040
 or perhaps you're going further than that you're traveling down the A9 maybe heading towards Glasgow or

00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:14.540
 Edinburgh or maybe even if you're lucky enough you're making your way over to the sunny side of the island

00:06:14.540 --> 00:06:22.420
 to the west side to Shawbust to enjoy the sunshine over there on the roads you'll often find something that

00:06:22.420 --> 00:06:31.020
 can be frustrating and something that can be quite annoying and that is roadworks everywhere you travel

00:06:31.020 --> 00:06:36.040
 doesn't matter what time of year you seem to come across roadworks and you start to think to yourself

00:06:36.040 --> 00:06:42.980
 well surely they finished the A9 by now surely they've fixed all the potholes between Ullapool and

00:06:42.980 --> 00:06:50.259
 Inverness surely they've tired all these spots that we're breaking up but it's always ongoing there's

00:06:50.259 --> 00:07:00.580
 always works going on and it can be frustrating for us but it's a reminder to us that roads always need

00:07:00.580 --> 00:07:08.439
 repairing there's always work to be done and in the bible that we're going to look at this morning

00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:12.879
 together in the church we're going to be looking at a book called Habakkuk we've been looking at this

00:07:12.879 --> 00:07:21.439
 book a few times now and we're looking at a verse that speaks of the work of the Lord and it speaks in

00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:28.500
 a way that's a bit like roadworks it's always ongoing and there might be times when we think surely

00:07:28.500 --> 00:07:38.199
 God's work is done surely God's repair work in us is done but it's never done because we live in a

00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:44.519
 broken world and we know in our own hearts that we always do the wrong things or say the wrong things

00:07:44.519 --> 00:07:48.019
 so God is always having to do a work in us

00:07:48.019 --> 00:07:56.680
 and like that we just have to be patient in it we have to be patient when we're stuck in roadworks on the

00:07:56.680 --> 00:08:02.459
 road but we have to be patient with God as well whether we're looking at the work he's doing around us

00:08:02.459 --> 00:08:09.479
 or the work he's doing in ourselves we need to be patient with him remember that as he is working

00:08:09.479 --> 00:08:16.939
 he is doing a good work in our midst and our prayer is that just as we sang there together

00:08:16.939 --> 00:08:24.159
 that we think of holiday times as a time when we enjoy rest and refreshment in the midst of every

00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:31.939
 part of our busy lives that today we would think too of the work that God is doing to give us rest

00:08:31.939 --> 00:08:38.879
 in him that he would do his work and that we would know the beauty of the Lord as the psalmist said there

00:08:38.879 --> 00:08:47.519
 the beauty of the Lord our God to be us upon so remember that over these holiday times wherever you go

00:08:47.519 --> 00:08:55.019
 whatever you do that the beauty of the Lord would be upon you that he would do his work in us and

00:08:55.019 --> 00:09:02.139
 around us to know that beauty and to establish it and may the Lord bless these thoughts to us we're

00:09:02.139 --> 00:09:11.000
 going to say the Lord's prayer together now our father which art in heaven hallowed be thy name

00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:18.940
 thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven give us this day our daily bread

00:09:18.940 --> 00:09:27.480
 and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from

00:09:27.480 --> 00:09:33.720
 evil for thine is the kingdom the power and the glory forever amen

00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:45.700
 we're going to sing again to God's praise in psalm 61 again this is in the Scottish Psalter version page 293

00:09:45.700 --> 00:09:52.100
 psalm 61 we'll sing from verse 1 down to verse 5

00:09:52.100 --> 00:10:01.399
 oh God give ear unto my cry unto my prayer attend from the utmost corner of the land my cry to thee I'll send

00:10:01.399 --> 00:10:09.659
 what time my heart is overwhelmed and in perplexity do thou me lead unto the rock that higher is than I

00:10:09.659 --> 00:10:13.919
 we'll sing from verse 1 to verse 5 to God's praise

00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:31.379
 oh God give ear unto my cry unto my prayer

00:10:31.379 --> 00:11:01.360
 what time my heart is overwhelmed and in perplexity do thou me lead unto the rock that higher is the

00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:11.360
 what time my heart is bound unto the rock that higher is the night for thou me lead unto the rock that higher is the night

00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:16.399
 unto the Lord,

00:11:16.740 --> 00:11:24.019
 the higher is the night.

00:11:24.940 --> 00:11:32.980
 For Thou hast borne my remedy,

00:11:32.980 --> 00:11:40.980
 a shelter by Thy blood.

00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:50.560
 And for defense against Thy foes,

00:11:51.060 --> 00:11:58.039
 the lasting last of time.

00:11:58.039 --> 00:12:07.820
 Within Thy tower I lie

00:12:07.820 --> 00:12:15.080
 forever in the light.

00:12:15.520 --> 00:12:23.940
 And under cover of Thy wings,

00:12:23.940 --> 00:12:31.200
 with confidence behind.

00:12:32.280 --> 00:12:36.140
 For Thou, the Lord,

00:12:36.139 --> 00:12:37.139
 the Lord,

00:12:37.139 --> 00:12:38.139
 the Lord,

00:12:38.139 --> 00:12:39.139
 the Lord,

00:12:39.139 --> 00:12:41.139
 the Lord,

00:12:41.139 --> 00:12:43.139
 the Lord,

00:12:43.139 --> 00:12:45.139
 my God,

00:12:45.139 --> 00:12:47.139
 this year,

00:12:47.139 --> 00:12:56.340
 Thou hast given me the heritage

00:12:56.340 --> 00:13:04.600
 of those Thy name that fear.

00:13:04.600 --> 00:13:13.399
 Well, let's turn to read God's Word together now.

00:13:13.500 --> 00:13:14.920
 We're reading in the book of Habakkuk.

00:13:15.840 --> 00:13:17.659
 I'm reading in chapter 2,

00:13:17.800 --> 00:13:19.500
 taking up our reading at verse 18.

00:13:20.899 --> 00:13:24.759
 You'll find this around page 950 in the Bibles.

00:13:26.460 --> 00:13:28.440
 Habakkuk chapter 2 at verse 18,

00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:31.460
 and we read into chapter 3 down to verse 10.

00:13:31.460 --> 00:13:43.320
 What prophet is an idol when its maker has shaped it,

00:13:43.680 --> 00:13:44.540
 a metal image,

00:13:44.740 --> 00:13:46.040
 a teacher of lies?

00:13:46.879 --> 00:13:49.900
 For its maker trusts in his own creation

00:13:49.900 --> 00:13:52.360
 when he makes speechless idols.

00:13:53.639 --> 00:13:56.060
 Woe to him who says to a wooden thing,

00:13:56.059 --> 00:13:56.759
 awake,

00:13:57.159 --> 00:13:58.839
 to a silent stone,

00:13:59.179 --> 00:13:59.819
 arise.

00:14:00.859 --> 00:14:02.000
 Can this teach?

00:14:02.859 --> 00:14:03.299
 Behold,

00:14:03.399 --> 00:14:05.779
 it is overlaid with gold and silver,

00:14:06.119 --> 00:14:08.479
 and there is no breath at all in it.

00:14:09.179 --> 00:14:12.099
 But the Lord is in his holy temple.

00:14:12.799 --> 00:14:15.819
 Let all the earth keep silence before him.

00:14:17.139 --> 00:14:18.419
 A prayer of Habakkuk,

00:14:18.500 --> 00:14:21.000
 the prophet according to Shigonoth.

00:14:21.599 --> 00:14:22.379
 O Lord,

00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:24.719
 I have heard the report of you,

00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:26.300
 and your work,

00:14:26.420 --> 00:14:26.899
 O Lord,

00:14:27.019 --> 00:14:27.960
 do I fear.

00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:30.160
 In the midst of the years,

00:14:30.360 --> 00:14:31.019
 revive it.

00:14:31.460 --> 00:14:32.860
 In the midst of the years,

00:14:33.120 --> 00:14:33.840
 make it known.

00:14:34.540 --> 00:14:35.200
 In wrath,

00:14:35.740 --> 00:14:36.720
 remember mercy.

00:14:37.820 --> 00:14:39.480
 God came from Taman,

00:14:39.779 --> 00:14:41.879
 and the Holy One from Mount Paran.

00:14:42.460 --> 00:14:44.279
 His splendor covered the heavens,

00:14:44.379 --> 00:14:46.440
 and the earth was full of his praise.

00:14:47.279 --> 00:14:49.379
 His brightness was like the light.

00:14:50.399 --> 00:14:52.920
 Rays flashed from his hand,

00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:55.120
 and there he veiled his power.

00:14:55.939 --> 00:14:57.819
 Before him went pestilence,

00:14:57.939 --> 00:14:59.860
 and plague followed at his heels.

00:15:00.279 --> 00:15:02.279
 He stood and measured the earth.

00:15:02.679 --> 00:15:04.599
 He looked and shook the nations.

00:15:05.379 --> 00:15:07.740
 Then the eternal mountains were scattered.

00:15:08.299 --> 00:15:10.719
 The everlasting hills sank low.

00:15:11.339 --> 00:15:13.599
 His were the everlasting ways.

00:15:14.339 --> 00:15:17.079
 I saw the tents of Cushion in affliction.

00:15:17.080 --> 00:15:20.139
 The curtains of the land of Midian did tremble.

00:15:20.940 --> 00:15:23.160
 Was your wrath against the rivers,

00:15:23.300 --> 00:15:23.700
 O Lord?

00:15:23.940 --> 00:15:25.900
 Was your anger against the rivers?

00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:28.600
 Or your indignation against the sea

00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:30.500
 when you rode on your horses,

00:15:31.100 --> 00:15:33.100
 on your chariot of salvation?

00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:36.200
 You stripped the sheath from your bow,

00:15:36.680 --> 00:15:38.120
 calling for many arrows.

00:15:38.879 --> 00:15:41.520
 You split the earth with rivers.

00:15:41.700 --> 00:15:43.700
 The mountains saw you and writhed.

00:15:43.700 --> 00:15:46.780
 The raging waters swept on.

00:15:47.360 --> 00:15:49.480
 The deep gave forth its voice.

00:15:49.960 --> 00:15:52.800
 It lifted its hands on high.

00:15:53.580 --> 00:15:54.200
 And so on.

00:15:54.280 --> 00:15:57.020
 And may God bless that reading from his word.

00:15:57.100 --> 00:15:59.140
 We'll again come to God in prayer.

00:15:59.240 --> 00:15:59.960
 Let us pray.

00:15:59.960 --> 00:16:06.300
 O Lord, our God, as we worship you,

00:16:06.420 --> 00:16:08.720
 we thank you that you remind us

00:16:08.720 --> 00:16:12.500
 that we are to come with boldness before you,

00:16:12.920 --> 00:16:15.180
 but yet humbly before you.

00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:17.560
 That we are to come before you

00:16:17.560 --> 00:16:21.379
 and lay all things in our prayers at your feet.

00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:26.120
 And yet we are to come with that right fear of the Lord.

00:16:26.120 --> 00:16:30.299
 And this passage reminds us of both of these elements

00:16:30.299 --> 00:16:31.440
 of our worship,

00:16:31.779 --> 00:16:34.299
 of how we can approach you as a God

00:16:34.299 --> 00:16:36.700
 who is able to do so much for us.

00:16:37.320 --> 00:16:39.840
 And yet it reminds us too of our own weakness

00:16:39.840 --> 00:16:43.600
 and our own frailties before you as a holy God.

00:16:44.259 --> 00:16:47.379
 But we thank you that you are a God of mercy

00:16:47.379 --> 00:16:50.279
 and that you remember us by mercy.

00:16:50.279 --> 00:16:53.899
 And even as we look at this passage today, O Lord,

00:16:53.959 --> 00:16:56.699
 we think of what our lives deserve,

00:16:57.000 --> 00:16:58.419
 what this world deserves,

00:16:58.939 --> 00:17:01.220
 what our sin deserves.

00:17:02.059 --> 00:17:05.200
 And yet we have this great cry of Habakkuk in wrath.

00:17:05.940 --> 00:17:06.899
 Remember mercy.

00:17:07.759 --> 00:17:09.799
 And that is our prayer today, O Lord,

00:17:09.899 --> 00:17:10.799
 for our nations,

00:17:11.359 --> 00:17:13.099
 for our world in these days.

00:17:13.619 --> 00:17:15.519
 That you would, although we deserve,

00:17:15.720 --> 00:17:18.759
 your wrath and indignation poured out upon us.

00:17:18.759 --> 00:17:20.599
 That in wrath, O Lord,

00:17:20.700 --> 00:17:22.099
 you might remember mercy.

00:17:22.740 --> 00:17:25.680
 And we thank you for the mercy that you have shown to us

00:17:25.680 --> 00:17:27.299
 and deserving as we are.

00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:31.700
 We thank you for the mercy we receive on a daily basis.

00:17:32.259 --> 00:17:36.000
 The mercies of your faithfulness new every morning.

00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:38.079
 Your mercies new every morning.

00:17:38.819 --> 00:17:39.720
 And we pray, Lord,

00:17:39.819 --> 00:17:42.579
 that we will come with thankfulness in our hearts.

00:17:42.740 --> 00:17:45.640
 Thankfulness that you do indeed remember us,

00:17:45.660 --> 00:17:47.240
 that you have not forgotten us,

00:17:47.240 --> 00:17:49.000
 but that you, O Lord,

00:17:49.059 --> 00:17:50.920
 are with us and with us each day

00:17:50.920 --> 00:17:52.620
 and each moment of each day.

00:17:53.200 --> 00:17:55.120
 We pray to know your strength

00:17:55.120 --> 00:17:56.500
 and your blessing with us.

00:17:56.599 --> 00:17:59.740
 We pray to know it even as you go on in this week

00:17:59.740 --> 00:18:01.519
 for all that lies ahead of us.

00:18:02.059 --> 00:18:02.859
 We pray, Lord,

00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:05.279
 that you will remember us in all our needs,

00:18:05.480 --> 00:18:06.799
 remember us as a people,

00:18:07.660 --> 00:18:08.839
 remember us in our homes

00:18:08.839 --> 00:18:09.759
 and in our families

00:18:09.759 --> 00:18:10.880
 and in our communities.

00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:12.920
 And far and wide, O Lord,

00:18:13.000 --> 00:18:14.500
 in all the needs of our land

00:18:14.500 --> 00:18:16.440
 and in the needs of the world,

00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:17.400
 O Lord,

00:18:17.480 --> 00:18:20.000
 that you would show us your goodness and mercy.

00:18:20.980 --> 00:18:21.680
 And we know, O Lord,

00:18:21.740 --> 00:18:24.200
 there can be so many things going on in our lives

00:18:24.200 --> 00:18:26.080
 that leave us feeling overwhelmed.

00:18:26.760 --> 00:18:28.880
 But yet we look to you, O Lord.

00:18:28.940 --> 00:18:32.420
 We look to you as the one who has the fuller picture,

00:18:32.940 --> 00:18:35.120
 the one who is the alpha and the omega,

00:18:35.240 --> 00:18:36.620
 the beginning and the end,

00:18:36.619 --> 00:18:39.379
 the one who has made all things well

00:18:39.379 --> 00:18:43.019
 and who has planned our very lives to every detail,

00:18:43.599 --> 00:18:46.959
 the one who is appointed each day and each moment,

00:18:47.599 --> 00:18:50.979
 the one who knows our every thought, word and deed.

00:18:51.839 --> 00:18:55.199
 And Lord, we come looking to you to guide us

00:18:55.199 --> 00:18:56.039
 and to help us.

00:18:56.079 --> 00:18:59.299
 As we think of families at this time

00:18:59.299 --> 00:19:01.819
 where there is grief and sorrow,

00:19:02.419 --> 00:19:04.759
 people are going through times of ill health,

00:19:04.759 --> 00:19:08.440
 people who are laid aside at home at this time.

00:19:08.539 --> 00:19:09.900
 Lord, we know the needs are many

00:19:09.900 --> 00:19:12.759
 and we just commit each one to you, O Lord.

00:19:13.000 --> 00:19:14.799
 Pray for your grace and your help,

00:19:14.879 --> 00:19:18.000
 your peace to be in the midst of all these things.

00:19:18.740 --> 00:19:21.240
 And we think of our land, our nation at this time

00:19:21.240 --> 00:19:26.660
 on a week that we will see a general election taking place.

00:19:27.480 --> 00:19:30.099
 O Lord, we pray for you to guide.

00:19:30.220 --> 00:19:31.500
 We pray for you to help.

00:19:31.500 --> 00:19:35.680
 We pray for you to give us spirit of the fear of the Lord

00:19:35.680 --> 00:19:37.220
 in our midst in these days,

00:19:37.400 --> 00:19:40.180
 that you would indeed in wrath remember mercy.

00:19:40.900 --> 00:19:46.140
 And Lord, be merciful to all who go into this week ahead

00:19:46.140 --> 00:19:48.539
 seeking to represent a people.

00:19:49.279 --> 00:19:52.859
 May you bring people forward who would be used by you

00:19:52.859 --> 00:19:54.339
 for your glory.

00:19:54.960 --> 00:19:56.940
 Do not just to represent a people,

00:19:57.079 --> 00:19:58.539
 but to represent you.

00:19:58.539 --> 00:20:00.599
 That your name would be praised.

00:20:00.899 --> 00:20:02.460
 That your name would be lifted up

00:20:02.460 --> 00:20:04.220
 even in our parliament buildings.

00:20:04.899 --> 00:20:06.460
 That in times when we have seen

00:20:06.460 --> 00:20:10.379
 so much ridicule and dishonor towards you,

00:20:10.960 --> 00:20:13.420
 we pray, O Lord, that you would turn that tide

00:20:13.420 --> 00:20:15.299
 and bring us to worship you,

00:20:15.359 --> 00:20:16.180
 to fear you,

00:20:16.500 --> 00:20:17.740
 and to praise your name.

00:20:18.460 --> 00:20:20.779
 We pray that for our world as well

00:20:20.779 --> 00:20:22.379
 and so much that's going on

00:20:22.379 --> 00:20:25.039
 with conflicts and fear and terror

00:20:25.039 --> 00:20:26.940
 all around us in so many ways.

00:20:26.940 --> 00:20:28.600
 And we pray, Lord,

00:20:28.799 --> 00:20:30.700
 that you would come in your power,

00:20:30.920 --> 00:20:32.980
 that you would revive your work in our midst,

00:20:33.500 --> 00:20:35.279
 that you would remember and make it known,

00:20:36.000 --> 00:20:37.759
 that your word would go out with power

00:20:37.759 --> 00:20:39.180
 to all ends of the earth.

00:20:39.740 --> 00:20:41.920
 That it would be that reviving word,

00:20:42.019 --> 00:20:43.420
 that word that gives life,

00:20:43.539 --> 00:20:45.480
 that brings people from darkness

00:20:45.480 --> 00:20:47.160
 into your wonderful light,

00:20:47.680 --> 00:20:49.820
 that brings them to know the power of Jesus,

00:20:50.120 --> 00:20:51.720
 the salvation that he offers,

00:20:52.380 --> 00:20:54.120
 the joy that he brings.

00:20:54.119 --> 00:20:55.739
 We pray, O Lord,

00:20:55.839 --> 00:20:57.839
 that you will hear our prayers

00:20:57.839 --> 00:20:59.379
 in all of these things.

00:21:00.019 --> 00:21:01.479
 And we give you thanks, O Lord,

00:21:01.579 --> 00:21:02.899
 for the ministry of your word.

00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:05.500
 We give you thanks for all that goes on

00:21:05.500 --> 00:21:07.599
 over these days.

00:21:07.739 --> 00:21:10.339
 We pray for the free church camps

00:21:10.339 --> 00:21:11.799
 as they have started already,

00:21:12.399 --> 00:21:14.439
 that your blessing will be upon all the children

00:21:14.439 --> 00:21:16.119
 and leaders and all involved

00:21:16.119 --> 00:21:17.959
 in the travel arrangements

00:21:17.959 --> 00:21:19.439
 and running the camps.

00:21:19.440 --> 00:21:21.900
 Lord, we ask that your spirit will be upon them,

00:21:22.360 --> 00:21:24.500
 that the beauty of the Lord would be upon them,

00:21:25.000 --> 00:21:26.480
 that we would see and hear

00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:28.940
 of days of your power in our midst.

00:21:29.480 --> 00:21:30.420
 We pray, O Lord,

00:21:30.519 --> 00:21:33.059
 that you would bless all that is done in your name.

00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:35.320
 We pray for our own holiday club

00:21:35.320 --> 00:21:37.380
 as continued preparation is made.

00:21:37.880 --> 00:21:40.600
 We pray again that your blessing would be upon it,

00:21:41.080 --> 00:21:43.360
 that you would see your hand upon us for good

00:21:43.360 --> 00:21:44.920
 in all of these things.

00:21:44.920 --> 00:21:47.800
 We pray for the busyness of summer,

00:21:47.940 --> 00:21:49.259
 although it's a time of holiday.

00:21:49.400 --> 00:21:50.240
 We thank you, too,

00:21:50.320 --> 00:21:52.880
 that the work of the gospel goes on

00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:54.779
 in so many different ways.

00:21:54.900 --> 00:21:56.779
 We thank you for the Fridays at the Free

00:21:56.779 --> 00:21:59.440
 and pray for these meetings going forward,

00:21:59.600 --> 00:22:03.660
 that we would see your hand upon us for good in that.

00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:05.060
 We thank you, too,

00:22:05.160 --> 00:22:08.039
 for the breakfast planned for later on in July

00:22:08.039 --> 00:22:09.580
 on the Sunday morning.

00:22:10.080 --> 00:22:12.440
 We thank you for all who have made preparation

00:22:12.440 --> 00:22:13.480
 already for it.

00:22:13.480 --> 00:22:16.740
 And we pray for willing volunteers to be involved

00:22:16.740 --> 00:22:19.279
 and to bless that work as well.

00:22:19.900 --> 00:22:22.319
 I think, too, are the open days for the cruise ships.

00:22:22.440 --> 00:22:24.259
 And thank you for the many people

00:22:24.259 --> 00:22:25.940
 who have already come through these doors

00:22:25.940 --> 00:22:29.160
 and pray for others who will come around our church

00:22:29.160 --> 00:22:31.039
 and meet with people here,

00:22:31.720 --> 00:22:34.059
 that they would come to meet with the living God,

00:22:34.660 --> 00:22:36.279
 that they would come to desire

00:22:36.279 --> 00:22:39.960
 and to know more of who this man Jesus is,

00:22:40.460 --> 00:22:42.059
 that they would hear of the salvation

00:22:42.059 --> 00:22:43.799
 that is offered in him.

00:22:44.480 --> 00:22:45.960
 And so we thank you, Lord,

00:22:46.079 --> 00:22:48.259
 for all the ways in which you help us

00:22:48.259 --> 00:22:49.339
 and which you guide us.

00:22:49.419 --> 00:22:52.619
 And we again thank you for the ministry

00:22:52.619 --> 00:22:54.259
 that has been taking place here

00:22:54.259 --> 00:22:55.899
 over these last number of years,

00:22:56.000 --> 00:22:58.119
 and especially remember James and Donna.

00:22:58.879 --> 00:23:01.299
 It's the day officially marks that retirement day.

00:23:01.299 --> 00:23:03.759
 We thank you for Friday evening

00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:05.859
 and for the blessing that there was in it

00:23:05.859 --> 00:23:08.659
 under your word and in our fellowship together.

00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:10.379
 And we pray, O Lord,

00:23:10.500 --> 00:23:12.899
 that we will be encouraged, as we heard,

00:23:12.980 --> 00:23:14.740
 to look to you going forward,

00:23:15.139 --> 00:23:16.240
 all of us together,

00:23:16.740 --> 00:23:18.299
 as a congregation here

00:23:18.299 --> 00:23:20.539
 and as Donna and James and the family

00:23:20.539 --> 00:23:22.059
 settle into their new home,

00:23:22.460 --> 00:23:23.680
 that they would know the blessing

00:23:23.680 --> 00:23:25.500
 and the beauty of the Lord upon them.

00:23:25.500 --> 00:23:26.880
 And so, Lord,

00:23:26.920 --> 00:23:29.019
 we commit ourselves into your hands.

00:23:29.299 --> 00:23:29.960
 We pray, Lord,

00:23:30.019 --> 00:23:30.819
 your blessing on us

00:23:30.819 --> 00:23:32.220
 as we turn to your words,

00:23:32.319 --> 00:23:33.480
 we sing your praise,

00:23:34.039 --> 00:23:34.920
 that in all that we do,

00:23:35.000 --> 00:23:37.099
 we would know your glory

00:23:37.099 --> 00:23:37.920
 and your presence.

00:23:38.319 --> 00:23:39.759
 So pardon all our sins

00:23:39.759 --> 00:23:41.240
 as we ask all these things

00:23:41.240 --> 00:23:42.259
 in Jesus' name.

00:23:42.759 --> 00:23:43.099
 Amen.

00:23:46.240 --> 00:23:47.339
 Let us sing again

00:23:47.339 --> 00:23:48.359
 before we turn back

00:23:48.359 --> 00:23:49.960
 to our passage in Habakkuk.

00:23:49.960 --> 00:23:51.740
 We're going to sing in Psalm 85.

00:23:52.799 --> 00:23:54.519
 We'll sing Psalm's version,

00:23:54.660 --> 00:23:55.880
 page 113.

00:23:57.140 --> 00:23:59.539
 We'll sing from verse 1 to verse 7.

00:24:00.840 --> 00:24:03.059
 Psalm 85 at verse 1.

00:24:03.620 --> 00:24:05.059
 In times past, Lord,

00:24:05.180 --> 00:24:06.019
 you showed favor

00:24:06.019 --> 00:24:07.740
 to your own beloved land,

00:24:08.140 --> 00:24:09.500
 the prosperity of Jacob

00:24:09.500 --> 00:24:11.840
 you restored by your strong hand.

00:24:12.160 --> 00:24:14.360
 You forgave your people's trespass.

00:24:14.440 --> 00:24:16.460
 You were pleased their sins to hide.

00:24:16.940 --> 00:24:18.860
 You withdrew all your displeasure

00:24:18.860 --> 00:24:19.880
 from your wrath.

00:24:19.960 --> 00:24:21.920
 You turned aside.

00:24:22.019 --> 00:24:24.000
 We'll sing from verse 1 to 7

00:24:24.000 --> 00:24:25.559
 to God's praise.

00:24:25.559 --> 00:24:26.559
 Amen.

00:24:49.960 --> 00:24:55.960
 You restored by your strong hand.

00:24:55.960 --> 00:25:01.960
 You forgave your people's trespass.

00:25:01.960 --> 00:25:11.440
 You were pleased their sins to hide.

00:25:11.440 --> 00:25:18.440
 You went through all your displeasure.

00:25:18.440 --> 00:25:24.440
 From your wrath you turned aside.

00:25:24.440 --> 00:25:33.440

00:25:46.819 --> 00:25:48.980

00:25:48.980 --> 00:25:51.939
 Will it last

00:25:51.939 --> 00:25:55.519
 From age to age

00:25:55.519 --> 00:25:59.079
 Will you not

00:25:59.079 --> 00:26:03.079
 Again revive us

00:26:03.079 --> 00:26:06.219
 That we may

00:26:06.220 --> 00:26:09.660
 Rejoice in you

00:26:09.660 --> 00:26:13.160
 Show us Lord

00:26:13.160 --> 00:26:16.980
 Your common mercy

00:26:16.980 --> 00:26:20.680
 Your salvation

00:26:20.680 --> 00:26:24.360
 And all you

00:26:24.360 --> 00:26:31.940
 Well we can turn back

00:26:31.940 --> 00:26:33.360
 to our reading in Habakkuk

00:26:33.360 --> 00:26:34.779
 We're going to be looking at

00:26:34.779 --> 00:26:36.599
 chapter 3 and verse 2

00:26:36.599 --> 00:26:38.480
 together this morning

00:26:38.480 --> 00:26:42.759
 There are times when we look

00:26:42.759 --> 00:26:44.220
 around and are blinded

00:26:44.220 --> 00:26:45.700
 to seeing things

00:26:45.700 --> 00:26:47.299
 especially to seeing things

00:26:47.299 --> 00:26:48.700
 from a bigger picture

00:26:48.700 --> 00:26:50.819
 or even an eternal perspective

00:26:50.819 --> 00:26:53.299
 because in front of our eyes

00:26:53.299 --> 00:26:54.379
 all that we're seeing

00:26:54.379 --> 00:26:56.139
 are challenges that seem to us

00:26:56.139 --> 00:26:58.180
 sometimes overwhelming

00:26:58.180 --> 00:26:59.899
 or sometimes they seem

00:26:59.899 --> 00:27:01.899
 like things that are unchangeable

00:27:01.900 --> 00:27:03.880
 that nothing can change

00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:06.220
 in what's going on around us

00:27:06.220 --> 00:27:08.019
 and we miss the potential

00:27:08.019 --> 00:27:09.680
 of what's around us

00:27:09.680 --> 00:27:11.340
 because our vision

00:27:11.340 --> 00:27:12.920
 is short-sighted

00:27:12.920 --> 00:27:16.280
 Here are these three examples

00:27:16.280 --> 00:27:18.180
 of a vision that didn't look

00:27:18.180 --> 00:27:19.300
 very far

00:27:19.300 --> 00:27:21.660
 In 1926

00:27:21.660 --> 00:27:23.820
 Lee Forrest invented

00:27:23.819 --> 00:27:25.759
 the cathode ray tube

00:27:25.759 --> 00:27:27.599
 What is used

00:27:27.599 --> 00:27:28.720
 or what used to be used

00:27:28.720 --> 00:27:29.200
 more commonly

00:27:29.200 --> 00:27:30.799
 in making televisions

00:27:30.799 --> 00:27:32.519
 For many years

00:27:32.519 --> 00:27:33.139
 that's the way

00:27:33.139 --> 00:27:34.599
 TV sets were made

00:27:34.599 --> 00:27:34.939
 and yet

00:27:34.939 --> 00:27:36.019
 at that time

00:27:36.019 --> 00:27:37.519
 in 1926

00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:39.799
 Lee Forrest said this

00:27:39.799 --> 00:27:41.279
 Theoretically

00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:43.480
 television may seem feasible

00:27:43.480 --> 00:27:45.539
 but I consider it

00:27:45.539 --> 00:27:46.759
 an impossibility

00:27:46.759 --> 00:27:48.420
 a development

00:27:48.420 --> 00:27:49.640
 which would waste

00:27:49.640 --> 00:27:52.039
 little time

00:27:52.039 --> 00:27:53.779
 dreaming about

00:27:53.779 --> 00:27:55.900
 It seemed like something

00:27:55.900 --> 00:27:57.339
 that was impossible

00:27:57.339 --> 00:27:58.480
 Well fast forward

00:27:58.480 --> 00:27:59.720
 a number of years later

00:27:59.720 --> 00:28:02.400
 and television is something

00:28:02.400 --> 00:28:04.200
 we know all around us

00:28:04.200 --> 00:28:06.259
 Another example

00:28:06.259 --> 00:28:07.500
 in 1943

00:28:07.500 --> 00:28:09.000
 Thomas J. Watson

00:28:09.000 --> 00:28:09.700
 was chairman

00:28:09.700 --> 00:28:11.240
 of the board of IBM

00:28:11.240 --> 00:28:12.900
 the computer manufacturers

00:28:12.900 --> 00:28:13.540
 and he said

00:28:13.540 --> 00:28:15.380
 I think there's a world market

00:28:15.380 --> 00:28:17.680
 for about five computers

00:28:17.680 --> 00:28:20.840
 You look around the world today

00:28:20.840 --> 00:28:21.740
 and there's billions

00:28:21.740 --> 00:28:23.019
 of computers

00:28:23.019 --> 00:28:24.660
 around the world

00:28:24.660 --> 00:28:26.640
 In 1962

00:28:26.640 --> 00:28:28.240
 a recording company

00:28:28.240 --> 00:28:29.759
 experts said

00:28:29.759 --> 00:28:30.480
 we don't think

00:28:30.480 --> 00:28:31.060
 the Beatles

00:28:31.060 --> 00:28:32.200
 will do anything

00:28:32.200 --> 00:28:33.100
 in their market

00:28:33.100 --> 00:28:34.780
 Guitar groups

00:28:34.780 --> 00:28:36.220
 are on the way out

00:28:36.220 --> 00:28:38.600
 How many years later

00:28:38.600 --> 00:28:39.220
 and the Beatles

00:28:39.220 --> 00:28:40.980
 are still a world

00:28:40.980 --> 00:28:41.900
 known brand

00:28:41.900 --> 00:28:43.600
 brand around the world

00:28:43.600 --> 00:28:45.740
 So you think of these

00:28:45.740 --> 00:28:46.560
 occasions

00:28:46.560 --> 00:28:47.360
 when vision

00:28:47.360 --> 00:28:48.060
 just looked

00:28:48.060 --> 00:28:48.980
 at the there

00:28:48.980 --> 00:28:49.440
 and then

00:28:49.440 --> 00:28:50.740
 instead of looking beyond

00:28:50.740 --> 00:28:51.900
 and looking to what

00:28:51.900 --> 00:28:53.280
 potential there was

00:28:53.280 --> 00:28:54.620
 that lay ahead

00:28:54.620 --> 00:28:56.440
 And we come

00:28:56.440 --> 00:28:57.620
 to look at Habakkuk

00:28:57.620 --> 00:28:58.240
 today

00:28:58.240 --> 00:28:58.740
 and we ask

00:28:58.740 --> 00:28:59.680
 well what kind of vision

00:28:59.680 --> 00:29:01.300
 did Habakkuk have

00:29:01.300 --> 00:29:02.140
 in his day

00:29:02.140 --> 00:29:04.280
 Was he short-sighted

00:29:04.280 --> 00:29:04.980
 and just looking

00:29:04.980 --> 00:29:06.259
 at the problems

00:29:06.259 --> 00:29:07.300
 and as we've seen

00:29:07.300 --> 00:29:08.600
 there was many problems

00:29:08.599 --> 00:29:10.619
 around both nationally

00:29:10.619 --> 00:29:11.919
 and internationally

00:29:11.919 --> 00:29:13.059
 there were problems

00:29:13.059 --> 00:29:14.159
 all around

00:29:14.159 --> 00:29:15.279
 in Habakkuk's day

00:29:15.279 --> 00:29:16.519
 but was he

00:29:16.519 --> 00:29:17.899
 short-sighted

00:29:17.899 --> 00:29:19.319
 or was he

00:29:19.319 --> 00:29:20.299
 looking up

00:29:20.299 --> 00:29:22.740
 and looking at things

00:29:22.740 --> 00:29:24.119
 eternally

00:29:24.119 --> 00:29:25.599
 and with a longer

00:29:25.599 --> 00:29:26.539
 vision

00:29:26.539 --> 00:29:28.519
 Yes he had

00:29:28.519 --> 00:29:29.299
 his questions

00:29:29.299 --> 00:29:30.679
 We've seen

00:29:30.679 --> 00:29:31.399
 that already

00:29:31.399 --> 00:29:32.859
 He has his questions

00:29:32.859 --> 00:29:33.699
 in verse 2

00:29:33.699 --> 00:29:34.919
 of the opening chapter

00:29:34.920 --> 00:29:35.519
 O Lord

00:29:35.519 --> 00:29:36.100
 how long

00:29:36.100 --> 00:29:37.640
 shall I cry for help

00:29:37.640 --> 00:29:38.740
 and you will not hear

00:29:38.740 --> 00:29:39.340
 There was this

00:29:39.340 --> 00:29:41.300
 wondering what was going on

00:29:41.300 --> 00:29:42.500
 but yet there was

00:29:42.500 --> 00:29:43.279
 this assurance

00:29:43.279 --> 00:29:44.100
 of knowing

00:29:44.100 --> 00:29:45.440
 where to come

00:29:45.440 --> 00:29:47.340
 We have seen already

00:29:47.340 --> 00:29:49.019
 the mysterious ways

00:29:49.019 --> 00:29:51.160
 in which God works

00:29:51.160 --> 00:29:52.200
 in verse 5

00:29:52.200 --> 00:29:53.779
 of chapter 1

00:29:53.779 --> 00:29:55.240
 We have seen

00:29:55.240 --> 00:29:56.440
 how God

00:29:56.440 --> 00:29:57.640
 tells his people

00:29:57.640 --> 00:29:58.279
 and Habakkuk

00:29:58.279 --> 00:29:59.380
 instructs his people

00:29:59.380 --> 00:30:00.120
 that they are to be

00:30:00.120 --> 00:30:00.840
 a people

00:30:00.840 --> 00:30:02.000
 who live

00:30:02.000 --> 00:30:03.960
 by faith

00:30:03.960 --> 00:30:06.160
 And then the last time

00:30:06.160 --> 00:30:06.799
 we were together

00:30:06.799 --> 00:30:07.900
 we were looking at

00:30:07.900 --> 00:30:09.120
 verse 14

00:30:09.120 --> 00:30:10.620
 of chapter 2

00:30:10.620 --> 00:30:12.180
 And there

00:30:12.180 --> 00:30:12.960
 they have these

00:30:12.960 --> 00:30:14.000
 wonderful words

00:30:14.000 --> 00:30:14.980
 of a vision

00:30:14.980 --> 00:30:16.180
 that looks way beyond

00:30:16.180 --> 00:30:17.340
 anything that's happening

00:30:17.340 --> 00:30:18.400
 in his day

00:30:18.400 --> 00:30:18.980
 but a day

00:30:18.980 --> 00:30:20.120
 when the earth

00:30:20.120 --> 00:30:20.819
 will be filled

00:30:20.819 --> 00:30:21.500
 with the knowledge

00:30:21.500 --> 00:30:22.240
 of the glory

00:30:22.240 --> 00:30:22.819
 of the Lord

00:30:22.819 --> 00:30:23.720
 as the waters

00:30:23.720 --> 00:30:25.539
 covers the sea

00:30:25.539 --> 00:30:27.759
 So Habakkuk

00:30:27.759 --> 00:30:29.400
 has this greater vision

00:30:29.400 --> 00:30:30.720
 of the potential

00:30:30.720 --> 00:30:31.519
 that there is

00:30:31.519 --> 00:30:32.559
 in looking

00:30:32.559 --> 00:30:33.500
 to God

00:30:33.500 --> 00:30:34.839
 in the darkness

00:30:34.839 --> 00:30:35.700
 of his day

00:30:35.700 --> 00:30:36.940
 he didn't see God

00:30:36.940 --> 00:30:37.480
 and think

00:30:37.480 --> 00:30:39.460
 he can't change this

00:30:39.460 --> 00:30:40.859
 he can't do anything

00:30:40.859 --> 00:30:42.519
 in this circumstance

00:30:42.519 --> 00:30:44.619
 He saw

00:30:44.619 --> 00:30:45.700
 a God

00:30:45.700 --> 00:30:46.660
 who can

00:30:46.660 --> 00:30:47.700
 change things

00:30:48.279 --> 00:30:50.140
 and that's the way

00:30:50.140 --> 00:30:51.259
 he came

00:30:51.259 --> 00:30:52.240
 to him

00:30:52.240 --> 00:30:53.799
 And so today

00:30:53.799 --> 00:30:54.779
 we come to another

00:30:54.779 --> 00:30:55.660
 of these nuggets

00:30:55.660 --> 00:30:56.460
 of gold

00:30:56.460 --> 00:30:57.900
 that we find

00:30:57.900 --> 00:30:58.779
 in this book

00:30:58.779 --> 00:30:59.700
 of Habakkuk

00:30:59.700 --> 00:31:00.740
 nuggets

00:31:00.740 --> 00:31:01.759
 that remind us

00:31:01.759 --> 00:31:02.539
 that God

00:31:02.539 --> 00:31:03.600
 is working

00:31:03.600 --> 00:31:05.019
 that God

00:31:05.019 --> 00:31:06.100
 is able

00:31:06.100 --> 00:31:07.519
 and so we're going

00:31:07.519 --> 00:31:08.059
 to look at

00:31:08.059 --> 00:31:08.880
 verse 2

00:31:08.880 --> 00:31:10.160
 of chapter 3

00:31:10.160 --> 00:31:11.980
 together today

00:31:11.980 --> 00:31:13.220
 and this is when

00:31:13.220 --> 00:31:13.799
 we come in

00:31:13.799 --> 00:31:14.860
 to Habakkuk's

00:31:14.860 --> 00:31:15.620
 prayer

00:31:15.620 --> 00:31:17.440
 as he approaches

00:31:17.440 --> 00:31:18.000
 God

00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:19.420
 in this wonderful

00:31:19.420 --> 00:31:19.759
 prayer

00:31:19.759 --> 00:31:20.480
 we're going to focus

00:31:20.480 --> 00:31:21.360
 on verse 2

00:31:21.360 --> 00:31:21.779
 today

00:31:21.779 --> 00:31:23.500
 and there it says

00:31:23.500 --> 00:31:24.660
 O Lord

00:31:24.660 --> 00:31:25.920
 I have heard

00:31:25.920 --> 00:31:26.700
 the report

00:31:26.700 --> 00:31:27.420
 of you

00:31:27.420 --> 00:31:28.799
 and your work

00:31:28.799 --> 00:31:30.059
 O Lord

00:31:30.059 --> 00:31:31.740
 do I fear

00:31:31.740 --> 00:31:33.359
 and your work

00:31:33.359 --> 00:31:33.799
 O Lord

00:31:33.799 --> 00:31:34.640
 do I fear

00:31:34.640 --> 00:31:36.059
 in the midst

00:31:36.059 --> 00:31:36.900
 of the years

00:31:36.900 --> 00:31:37.759
 revive it

00:31:37.759 --> 00:31:39.019
 in the midst

00:31:39.019 --> 00:31:39.960
 of the years

00:31:39.960 --> 00:31:41.200
 make it known

00:31:41.200 --> 00:31:42.640
 in wrath

00:31:42.640 --> 00:31:44.019
 remember

00:31:44.019 --> 00:31:44.920
 mercy

00:31:44.920 --> 00:31:47.440
 and you look

00:31:47.440 --> 00:31:48.200
 at the psalm

00:31:48.200 --> 00:31:48.840
 that we've just

00:31:48.840 --> 00:31:50.200
 sung together

00:31:50.200 --> 00:31:50.500
 there

00:31:50.500 --> 00:31:51.840
 Psalm 85

00:31:51.840 --> 00:31:54.220
 it's a psalm

00:31:54.220 --> 00:31:55.100
 that has so much

00:31:55.100 --> 00:31:55.980
 of what this

00:31:55.980 --> 00:31:56.880
 verse speaks

00:31:56.880 --> 00:31:57.259
 about

00:31:57.259 --> 00:31:58.580
 it speaks

00:31:58.580 --> 00:31:59.560
 about the anger

00:31:59.560 --> 00:32:00.220
 of God

00:32:00.220 --> 00:32:01.060
 his wrath

00:32:01.060 --> 00:32:02.600
 and yet the power

00:32:02.600 --> 00:32:03.240
 of God

00:32:03.240 --> 00:32:04.320
 to revive

00:32:04.320 --> 00:32:05.980
 and that is

00:32:05.980 --> 00:32:06.900
 what this verse

00:32:06.900 --> 00:32:08.460
 is all about

00:32:08.460 --> 00:32:09.440
 the way

00:32:09.440 --> 00:32:10.259
 the Lord

00:32:10.259 --> 00:32:10.900
 is able

00:32:10.900 --> 00:32:11.920
 to revive

00:32:11.920 --> 00:32:13.019
 his work

00:32:13.019 --> 00:32:14.420
 in the midst

00:32:14.420 --> 00:32:15.680
 of Habakkuk's

00:32:15.680 --> 00:32:15.900
 day

00:32:15.900 --> 00:32:17.080
 in the same

00:32:17.080 --> 00:32:17.560
 way that he

00:32:17.560 --> 00:32:17.900
 is able

00:32:17.900 --> 00:32:18.480
 to revive

00:32:18.480 --> 00:32:19.120
 his work

00:32:19.120 --> 00:32:20.160
 in the midst

00:32:20.160 --> 00:32:21.340
 of our day

00:32:21.340 --> 00:32:22.759
 and so there's

00:32:22.759 --> 00:32:23.320
 three things

00:32:23.320 --> 00:32:23.940
 I want us to

00:32:23.940 --> 00:32:24.519
 take from

00:32:24.519 --> 00:32:25.160
 verse 2

00:32:25.160 --> 00:32:25.620
 here

00:32:25.620 --> 00:32:26.620
 we're going

00:32:26.620 --> 00:32:26.980
 to look at

00:32:26.980 --> 00:32:27.660
 first of all

00:32:27.660 --> 00:32:28.720
 the blindness

00:32:28.720 --> 00:32:29.800
 that there was

00:32:29.800 --> 00:32:31.539
 and then the

00:32:31.539 --> 00:32:32.240
 boldness

00:32:32.240 --> 00:32:33.039
 that he had

00:32:33.039 --> 00:32:34.420
 and then the

00:32:34.420 --> 00:32:34.860
 blessing

00:32:34.860 --> 00:32:36.039
 that was

00:32:36.039 --> 00:32:36.640
 promised

00:32:36.640 --> 00:32:38.380
 so we're going

00:32:38.380 --> 00:32:38.820
 to begin

00:32:38.820 --> 00:32:39.480
 with the

00:32:39.480 --> 00:32:40.019
 blindness

00:32:40.019 --> 00:32:42.620
 you see

00:32:42.620 --> 00:32:43.580
 in Habakkuk's

00:32:43.580 --> 00:32:43.960
 day

00:32:43.960 --> 00:32:44.620
 there was

00:32:44.620 --> 00:32:45.319
 a problem

00:32:45.319 --> 00:32:46.819
 and it was

00:32:46.819 --> 00:32:47.440
 not a new

00:32:47.440 --> 00:32:47.980
 problem

00:32:47.980 --> 00:32:49.200
 and it's

00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:49.920
 not a problem

00:32:49.920 --> 00:32:50.559
 that has gone

00:32:50.559 --> 00:32:51.519
 away since

00:32:51.519 --> 00:32:52.160
 that day

00:32:52.160 --> 00:32:53.480
 it's a problem

00:32:53.480 --> 00:32:54.380
 that is still

00:32:54.380 --> 00:32:55.519
 all around

00:32:55.519 --> 00:32:56.000
 us

00:32:56.000 --> 00:32:57.400
 and what is

00:32:57.400 --> 00:32:58.259
 that problem

00:32:58.259 --> 00:32:59.740
 well it is

00:32:59.740 --> 00:33:00.940
 spiritual

00:33:00.940 --> 00:33:02.059
 blindness

00:33:02.059 --> 00:33:04.059
 the people

00:33:04.059 --> 00:33:04.600
 as we see

00:33:04.600 --> 00:33:05.500
 in Habakkuk's

00:33:05.500 --> 00:33:05.940
 day and even

00:33:05.940 --> 00:33:06.340
 as we think

00:33:06.340 --> 00:33:06.880
 of our own

00:33:06.880 --> 00:33:07.380
 day to day

00:33:07.380 --> 00:33:07.960
 are people

00:33:07.960 --> 00:33:08.740
 who have

00:33:08.740 --> 00:33:09.980
 lost sight

00:33:09.980 --> 00:33:11.120
 of God

00:33:11.120 --> 00:33:12.960
 and when we

00:33:12.960 --> 00:33:14.519
 lose sight

00:33:14.519 --> 00:33:15.000
 of God

00:33:15.000 --> 00:33:15.640
 this leads

00:33:15.640 --> 00:33:16.240
 us to

00:33:16.240 --> 00:33:17.099
 look elsewhere

00:33:17.099 --> 00:33:18.880
 and that's

00:33:18.880 --> 00:33:19.380
 what we see

00:33:19.380 --> 00:33:19.940
 at the end

00:33:19.940 --> 00:33:21.039
 of chapter 2

00:33:21.039 --> 00:33:21.700
 here in

00:33:21.700 --> 00:33:22.220
 Habakkuk

00:33:22.220 --> 00:33:22.700
 we see

00:33:22.700 --> 00:33:23.839
 the blindness

00:33:23.839 --> 00:33:24.960
 of the people

00:33:24.960 --> 00:33:25.860
 has led them

00:33:25.860 --> 00:33:26.599
 to look

00:33:26.599 --> 00:33:27.200
 elsewhere

00:33:27.200 --> 00:33:28.319
 and what we

00:33:28.319 --> 00:33:28.900
 read in

00:33:28.900 --> 00:33:29.720
 verse 18

00:33:29.720 --> 00:33:30.079
 there

00:33:30.079 --> 00:33:31.380
 what profit

00:33:31.380 --> 00:33:32.900
 is an idol

00:33:32.900 --> 00:33:33.980
 which its

00:33:33.980 --> 00:33:34.500
 maker

00:33:34.500 --> 00:33:35.860
 has shaped

00:33:35.859 --> 00:33:38.759
 what profit

00:33:38.759 --> 00:33:40.000
 is an idol

00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:41.479
 they are

00:33:41.479 --> 00:33:41.919
 looking

00:33:41.919 --> 00:33:42.939
 to something

00:33:42.939 --> 00:33:43.339
 that they

00:33:43.339 --> 00:33:44.099
 can make

00:33:44.099 --> 00:33:44.799
 something

00:33:44.799 --> 00:33:45.219
 they can

00:33:45.219 --> 00:33:45.939
 touch

00:33:45.939 --> 00:33:47.039
 something

00:33:47.039 --> 00:33:47.399
 that they

00:33:47.399 --> 00:33:48.279
 can see

00:33:48.279 --> 00:33:49.099
 whether it's

00:33:49.099 --> 00:33:49.439
 made of

00:33:49.439 --> 00:33:49.919
 metal

00:33:49.919 --> 00:33:50.979
 or wood

00:33:50.979 --> 00:33:52.419
 because their

00:33:52.419 --> 00:33:53.119
 eyes of

00:33:53.119 --> 00:33:53.579
 faith

00:33:53.579 --> 00:33:53.959
 have been

00:33:53.959 --> 00:33:54.539
 dimmed

00:33:54.539 --> 00:33:56.179
 their focus

00:33:56.179 --> 00:33:56.899
 on God

00:33:56.899 --> 00:33:57.599
 has gone

00:33:57.599 --> 00:33:58.879
 and they are

00:33:58.879 --> 00:33:59.619
 looking around

00:33:59.619 --> 00:34:00.240
 them in the

00:34:00.240 --> 00:34:00.899
 midst of the

00:34:00.899 --> 00:34:01.679
 Babylonian

00:34:01.679 --> 00:34:02.139
 armies

00:34:02.139 --> 00:34:03.000
 and they've

00:34:03.000 --> 00:34:04.319
 been devastated

00:34:04.319 --> 00:34:04.979
 by what's

00:34:04.979 --> 00:34:05.559
 happened

00:34:05.559 --> 00:34:06.419
 they've been

00:34:06.419 --> 00:34:07.339
 taken captive

00:34:07.339 --> 00:34:08.840
 and they're

00:34:08.840 --> 00:34:09.440
 looking around

00:34:09.440 --> 00:34:09.739
 and they're

00:34:09.739 --> 00:34:10.340
 saying God

00:34:10.340 --> 00:34:10.920
 is gone

00:34:10.920 --> 00:34:13.079
 God is not

00:34:13.079 --> 00:34:13.599
 with us

00:34:13.599 --> 00:34:14.119
 we need

00:34:14.119 --> 00:34:15.179
 something else

00:34:15.179 --> 00:34:15.719
 to put our

00:34:15.719 --> 00:34:16.519
 trust in

00:34:16.519 --> 00:34:16.920
 and they are

00:34:16.920 --> 00:34:17.940
 blinded to

00:34:17.940 --> 00:34:18.299
 God

00:34:18.299 --> 00:34:19.279
 and they fix

00:34:19.279 --> 00:34:19.860
 their eyes

00:34:19.860 --> 00:34:20.360
 now on

00:34:20.360 --> 00:34:21.079
 idols

00:34:21.079 --> 00:34:22.900
 idols

00:34:22.900 --> 00:34:24.500
 that cannot

00:34:24.500 --> 00:34:25.480
 help

00:34:25.480 --> 00:34:26.900
 and as

00:34:26.900 --> 00:34:27.659
 verse 19

00:34:27.659 --> 00:34:28.079
 there goes

00:34:28.079 --> 00:34:28.420
 on to say

00:34:28.420 --> 00:34:29.360
 woe to him

00:34:29.360 --> 00:34:30.119
 who says to

00:34:30.119 --> 00:34:30.940
 a wooden

00:34:30.940 --> 00:34:31.920
 thing awake

00:34:31.920 --> 00:34:33.019
 to a silent

00:34:33.019 --> 00:34:34.179
 stone arise

00:34:34.179 --> 00:34:35.099
 there's just

00:34:35.099 --> 00:34:36.159
 foolishness

00:34:36.159 --> 00:34:36.619
 there's this

00:34:36.619 --> 00:34:37.599
 blindness

00:34:37.599 --> 00:34:38.420
 in turning

00:34:38.420 --> 00:34:39.719
 to idols

00:34:39.719 --> 00:34:41.920
 God

00:34:41.920 --> 00:34:42.719
 seemed

00:34:42.719 --> 00:34:43.759
 far

00:34:43.759 --> 00:34:44.579
 away

00:34:44.579 --> 00:34:44.940
 God

00:34:44.940 --> 00:34:45.380
 seemed

00:34:45.380 --> 00:34:46.000
 to have

00:34:46.000 --> 00:34:46.659
 forgotten

00:34:46.659 --> 00:34:47.639
 all

00:34:47.639 --> 00:34:48.440
 about

00:34:48.440 --> 00:34:48.759
 them

00:34:48.759 --> 00:34:49.599
 and as

00:34:49.599 --> 00:34:50.380
 we saw

00:34:50.380 --> 00:34:50.839
 before

00:34:50.839 --> 00:34:51.259
 in verse

00:34:51.259 --> 00:34:51.860
 1

00:34:51.860 --> 00:34:53.960
 verse 2

00:34:53.960 --> 00:34:54.360
 of chapter

00:34:54.360 --> 00:34:54.799
 1

00:34:54.799 --> 00:34:55.659
 it was

00:34:55.659 --> 00:34:56.059
 something that

00:34:56.059 --> 00:34:56.659
 Habakkuk

00:34:56.659 --> 00:34:57.159
 himself

00:34:57.159 --> 00:34:57.679
 struggled

00:34:57.679 --> 00:34:58.039
 with

00:34:58.039 --> 00:34:58.639
 how long

00:34:58.639 --> 00:34:58.980
 shall I

00:34:58.980 --> 00:34:59.579
 cry for

00:34:59.579 --> 00:34:59.940
 help

00:34:59.940 --> 00:35:00.659
 and you

00:35:00.659 --> 00:35:01.179
 will not

00:35:01.179 --> 00:35:01.519
 hear

00:35:01.519 --> 00:35:02.819
 but Habakkuk

00:35:02.820 --> 00:35:03.260
 knew

00:35:03.260 --> 00:35:04.180
 where to

00:35:04.180 --> 00:35:04.480
 go

00:35:04.480 --> 00:35:05.480
 he knew

00:35:05.480 --> 00:35:06.240
 that idols

00:35:06.240 --> 00:35:07.240
 weren't

00:35:07.240 --> 00:35:07.760
 going to

00:35:07.760 --> 00:35:08.200
 help

00:35:08.200 --> 00:35:09.019
 his eyes

00:35:09.019 --> 00:35:09.680
 were still

00:35:09.680 --> 00:35:10.140
 open

00:35:10.140 --> 00:35:10.940
 to the

00:35:10.940 --> 00:35:11.380
 God

00:35:11.380 --> 00:35:11.740
 who was

00:35:11.740 --> 00:35:12.039
 there

00:35:12.039 --> 00:35:12.760
 for them

00:35:12.760 --> 00:35:14.320
 and we

00:35:14.320 --> 00:35:14.860
 were reminded

00:35:14.860 --> 00:35:15.320
 of this

00:35:15.320 --> 00:35:15.900
 on Friday

00:35:15.900 --> 00:35:16.220
 evening

00:35:16.220 --> 00:35:16.780
 as Kenny

00:35:16.780 --> 00:35:17.180
 I was

00:35:17.180 --> 00:35:17.620
 preaching

00:35:17.620 --> 00:35:18.260
 to us

00:35:18.260 --> 00:35:19.519
 from Joshua

00:35:19.519 --> 00:35:20.680
 that

00:35:20.680 --> 00:35:21.620
 as he spoke

00:35:21.620 --> 00:35:21.920
 of the

00:35:21.920 --> 00:35:22.539
 Ark of the

00:35:22.539 --> 00:35:22.900
 Covenant

00:35:22.900 --> 00:35:23.740
 going ahead

00:35:23.740 --> 00:35:24.080
 of the

00:35:24.080 --> 00:35:24.480
 people

00:35:24.480 --> 00:35:24.800
 it was

00:35:24.800 --> 00:35:25.380
 with a

00:35:25.380 --> 00:35:25.800
 purpose

00:35:25.800 --> 00:35:26.300
 that they

00:35:26.300 --> 00:35:26.500
 would

00:35:26.500 --> 00:35:27.660
 see ahead

00:35:27.660 --> 00:35:27.860
 of them

00:35:27.860 --> 00:35:28.500
 that God

00:35:28.500 --> 00:35:29.320
 was with

00:35:29.320 --> 00:35:29.420
 them

00:35:29.420 --> 00:35:29.720
 that their

00:35:29.720 --> 00:35:30.140
 focus

00:35:30.140 --> 00:35:31.059
 would be

00:35:31.059 --> 00:35:31.759
 on God

00:35:31.759 --> 00:35:33.420
 because

00:35:33.420 --> 00:35:33.659
 when we

00:35:33.659 --> 00:35:34.019
 just look

00:35:34.019 --> 00:35:34.320
 down

00:35:34.320 --> 00:35:34.739
 we don't

00:35:34.739 --> 00:35:35.279
 see him

00:35:35.279 --> 00:35:37.340
 and it's

00:35:37.340 --> 00:35:37.820
 the same

00:35:37.820 --> 00:35:38.400
 here

00:35:38.400 --> 00:35:39.519
 the people

00:35:39.519 --> 00:35:39.900
 aren't

00:35:39.900 --> 00:35:40.400
 looking

00:35:40.400 --> 00:35:41.219
 to God

00:35:41.219 --> 00:35:41.500
 they're

00:35:41.500 --> 00:35:41.960
 blind

00:35:41.960 --> 00:35:42.599
 to see

00:35:42.599 --> 00:35:42.900
 him

00:35:42.900 --> 00:35:43.440
 and so

00:35:43.440 --> 00:35:43.619
 they're

00:35:43.619 --> 00:35:43.860
 looking

00:35:43.860 --> 00:35:44.059
 to

00:35:44.059 --> 00:35:44.759
 themselves

00:35:44.759 --> 00:35:45.259
 to what

00:35:45.259 --> 00:35:45.719
 they can

00:35:45.719 --> 00:35:46.079
 make

00:35:46.079 --> 00:35:46.940
 and how

00:35:46.940 --> 00:35:47.699
 they can

00:35:47.699 --> 00:35:48.139
 help

00:35:48.139 --> 00:35:48.820
 themselves

00:35:48.820 --> 00:35:50.400
 but they

00:35:50.400 --> 00:35:50.779
 have been

00:35:50.779 --> 00:35:51.880
 blinded

00:35:51.880 --> 00:35:54.980
 we need

00:35:54.980 --> 00:35:55.719
 to keep

00:35:55.719 --> 00:35:56.440
 God

00:35:56.440 --> 00:35:57.559
 in view

00:35:57.559 --> 00:35:59.159
 and that's

00:35:59.159 --> 00:35:59.880
 what Habakkuk

00:35:59.880 --> 00:36:00.460
 is saying

00:36:00.460 --> 00:36:01.300
 to us

00:36:01.300 --> 00:36:01.720
 here

00:36:01.720 --> 00:36:02.880
 we need

00:36:02.880 --> 00:36:03.539
 to keep

00:36:03.539 --> 00:36:03.940
 God

00:36:03.940 --> 00:36:04.240
 in view

00:36:04.240 --> 00:36:04.880
 but we

00:36:04.880 --> 00:36:05.119
 need to

00:36:05.119 --> 00:36:05.360
 have a

00:36:05.360 --> 00:36:05.599
 vision

00:36:05.599 --> 00:36:06.039
 of what's

00:36:06.039 --> 00:36:06.500
 going on

00:36:06.500 --> 00:36:07.400
 around us

00:36:07.400 --> 00:36:08.360
 as well

00:36:08.360 --> 00:36:10.179
 because Habakkuk

00:36:10.179 --> 00:36:11.079
 he understood

00:36:11.079 --> 00:36:12.159
 what was

00:36:12.159 --> 00:36:12.659
 happening

00:36:12.659 --> 00:36:13.380
 around him

00:36:13.380 --> 00:36:14.559
 he saw

00:36:14.559 --> 00:36:15.000
 what was

00:36:15.000 --> 00:36:15.420
 happening

00:36:15.420 --> 00:36:16.179
 around him

00:36:16.179 --> 00:36:17.000
 and he saw

00:36:17.000 --> 00:36:17.400
 how the

00:36:17.400 --> 00:36:17.940
 people were

00:36:17.940 --> 00:36:18.780
 blinded

00:36:18.780 --> 00:36:19.659
 by the

00:36:19.659 --> 00:36:20.039
 gods

00:36:20.039 --> 00:36:20.619
 of this

00:36:20.619 --> 00:36:21.119
 world

00:36:21.119 --> 00:36:22.880
 he realised

00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:23.599
 the problem

00:36:23.599 --> 00:36:24.539
 it wasn't

00:36:24.539 --> 00:36:25.119
 just with

00:36:25.119 --> 00:36:25.820
 the people

00:36:25.820 --> 00:36:27.760
 but the

00:36:27.760 --> 00:36:28.199
 way this

00:36:28.199 --> 00:36:28.639
 world

00:36:28.639 --> 00:36:29.760
 blinds us

00:36:29.760 --> 00:36:30.640
 to God

00:36:30.640 --> 00:36:31.920
 and this

00:36:31.920 --> 00:36:32.520
 happens

00:36:32.520 --> 00:36:33.840
 in every

00:36:33.840 --> 00:36:34.720
 generation

00:36:34.720 --> 00:36:36.340
 when we

00:36:36.340 --> 00:36:36.840
 start to

00:36:36.840 --> 00:36:37.600
 forget about

00:36:37.600 --> 00:36:38.020
 God

00:36:38.020 --> 00:36:38.460
 we look

00:36:38.460 --> 00:36:39.120
 elsewhere

00:36:39.120 --> 00:36:40.560
 and so

00:36:40.560 --> 00:36:41.260
 as we

00:36:41.260 --> 00:36:42.040
 know God

00:36:42.040 --> 00:36:42.640
 ourselves

00:36:42.640 --> 00:36:43.220
 we have to

00:36:43.220 --> 00:36:44.060
 ask ourselves

00:36:44.060 --> 00:36:44.800
 the question

00:36:44.800 --> 00:36:45.600
 do we

00:36:45.600 --> 00:36:46.220
 understand

00:36:46.220 --> 00:36:47.100
 the people

00:36:47.100 --> 00:36:47.820
 around us

00:36:47.820 --> 00:36:48.080
 do we

00:36:48.080 --> 00:36:48.820
 understand

00:36:48.820 --> 00:36:50.060
 the situation

00:36:50.060 --> 00:36:50.480
 that is

00:36:50.480 --> 00:36:51.260
 all around

00:36:51.260 --> 00:36:51.820
 us

00:36:51.820 --> 00:36:53.120
 do we

00:36:53.120 --> 00:36:53.740
 just look

00:36:53.740 --> 00:36:54.600
 and condemn

00:36:54.599 --> 00:36:56.039
 without

00:36:56.039 --> 00:36:56.940
 thinking

00:36:56.940 --> 00:36:58.460
 do we

00:36:58.460 --> 00:36:58.799
 look

00:36:58.799 --> 00:36:59.699
 and judge

00:36:59.699 --> 00:37:00.019
 without

00:37:00.019 --> 00:37:00.719
 realising

00:37:00.719 --> 00:37:01.599
 the problem

00:37:01.599 --> 00:37:02.019
 is not

00:37:02.019 --> 00:37:02.500
 just with

00:37:02.500 --> 00:37:03.179
 the people

00:37:03.179 --> 00:37:04.739
 but the

00:37:04.739 --> 00:37:05.199
 problem

00:37:05.199 --> 00:37:06.159
 is more

00:37:06.159 --> 00:37:06.880
 powerful

00:37:06.880 --> 00:37:07.400
 than that

00:37:07.400 --> 00:37:08.019
 the problem

00:37:08.019 --> 00:37:08.779
 is sin

00:37:08.779 --> 00:37:09.519
 and the

00:37:09.519 --> 00:37:10.139
 evil one

00:37:10.139 --> 00:37:10.799
 who works

00:37:10.799 --> 00:37:11.279
 in this

00:37:11.279 --> 00:37:11.699
 world

00:37:11.699 --> 00:37:12.380
 and the

00:37:12.380 --> 00:37:12.920
 blindness

00:37:12.920 --> 00:37:13.799
 that sin

00:37:13.799 --> 00:37:14.940
 brings

00:37:14.940 --> 00:37:16.960
 and Habakkuk

00:37:16.960 --> 00:37:17.519
 as he looked

00:37:17.519 --> 00:37:18.159
 around could

00:37:18.159 --> 00:37:19.259
 see the

00:37:19.259 --> 00:37:19.819
 blindness

00:37:19.819 --> 00:37:20.380
 of the

00:37:20.380 --> 00:37:20.900
 people

00:37:20.900 --> 00:37:21.739
 he was

00:37:21.739 --> 00:37:22.239
 seeing

00:37:22.239 --> 00:37:23.400
 these idols

00:37:23.400 --> 00:37:24.280
 all around

00:37:24.280 --> 00:37:24.480
 them

00:37:24.480 --> 00:37:24.960
 and seeing

00:37:24.960 --> 00:37:25.260
 that they

00:37:25.260 --> 00:37:25.740
 had lost

00:37:25.740 --> 00:37:26.519
 their focus

00:37:26.519 --> 00:37:27.400
 on God

00:37:27.400 --> 00:37:28.420
 they had

00:37:28.420 --> 00:37:28.880
 lost their

00:37:28.880 --> 00:37:29.300
 focus

00:37:29.300 --> 00:37:29.840
 on looking

00:37:29.840 --> 00:37:30.880
 eternally

00:37:30.880 --> 00:37:31.740
 into eternal

00:37:31.740 --> 00:37:32.320
 matters

00:37:32.320 --> 00:37:33.700
 and he

00:37:33.700 --> 00:37:34.380
 understood

00:37:34.380 --> 00:37:35.460
 what was

00:37:35.460 --> 00:37:35.880
 needed

00:37:35.880 --> 00:37:37.579
 and there

00:37:37.579 --> 00:37:38.280
 is blindness

00:37:38.280 --> 00:37:39.260
 all around

00:37:39.260 --> 00:37:39.760
 us

00:37:39.760 --> 00:37:41.039
 and do we

00:37:41.039 --> 00:37:41.599
 understand

00:37:41.599 --> 00:37:42.700
 what is

00:37:42.700 --> 00:37:43.099
 needed

00:37:43.099 --> 00:37:44.220
 among our

00:37:44.220 --> 00:37:45.139
 people around

00:37:45.139 --> 00:37:45.340
 us

00:37:45.340 --> 00:37:45.579
 do we

00:37:45.579 --> 00:37:46.240
 understand

00:37:46.240 --> 00:37:47.079
 the needs

00:37:47.079 --> 00:37:47.400
 of the

00:37:47.400 --> 00:37:48.039
 people around

00:37:48.039 --> 00:37:48.180
 us

00:37:48.180 --> 00:37:48.440
 do we

00:37:48.440 --> 00:37:49.119
 understand

00:37:49.119 --> 00:37:49.920
 how sin

00:37:49.920 --> 00:37:51.200
 blinds a

00:37:51.200 --> 00:37:51.860
 people from

00:37:51.860 --> 00:37:52.460
 seeing

00:37:52.460 --> 00:37:53.260
 God

00:37:53.260 --> 00:37:55.620
 Habakkuk

00:37:55.620 --> 00:37:55.860
 did

00:37:55.860 --> 00:37:56.140
 and you

00:37:56.140 --> 00:37:56.300
 look

00:37:56.300 --> 00:37:56.740
 elsewhere

00:37:56.740 --> 00:37:57.020
 in

00:37:57.020 --> 00:37:57.460
 scripture

00:37:57.460 --> 00:37:58.560
 you find

00:37:58.560 --> 00:37:59.300
 someone like

00:37:59.300 --> 00:37:59.860
 Paul

00:37:59.860 --> 00:38:00.940
 who understood

00:38:00.940 --> 00:38:01.660
 that as

00:38:01.660 --> 00:38:02.020
 well

00:38:02.020 --> 00:38:02.560
 because he

00:38:02.560 --> 00:38:03.340
 looked around

00:38:03.340 --> 00:38:04.180
 him and saw

00:38:04.180 --> 00:38:05.120
 the way the

00:38:05.120 --> 00:38:05.940
 people lived

00:38:05.940 --> 00:38:06.440
 the way they

00:38:06.440 --> 00:38:07.000
 conducted

00:38:07.000 --> 00:38:07.740
 themselves

00:38:07.740 --> 00:38:09.720
 for example

00:38:09.720 --> 00:38:10.180
 when he was

00:38:10.180 --> 00:38:10.960
 in Corinth

00:38:10.960 --> 00:38:12.040
 as he spoke

00:38:12.040 --> 00:38:12.360
 to them

00:38:12.360 --> 00:38:12.700
 there

00:38:12.700 --> 00:38:13.380
 it says

00:38:13.380 --> 00:38:13.780
 in 2

00:38:13.780 --> 00:38:14.360
 Corinthians

00:38:14.360 --> 00:38:14.900
 4

00:38:14.900 --> 00:38:15.920
 in their

00:38:15.920 --> 00:38:16.300
 case

00:38:16.300 --> 00:38:16.900
 the God

00:38:16.900 --> 00:38:17.280
 of this

00:38:17.280 --> 00:38:17.680
 world

00:38:17.680 --> 00:38:18.520
 has blinded

00:38:18.520 --> 00:38:19.060
 the minds

00:38:19.060 --> 00:38:19.380
 of the

00:38:19.380 --> 00:38:20.120
 unbelievers

00:38:20.120 --> 00:38:21.080
 to keep

00:38:21.080 --> 00:38:21.440
 them from

00:38:21.440 --> 00:38:22.240
 seeing the

00:38:22.240 --> 00:38:22.740
 light of

00:38:22.739 --> 00:38:23.279
 the gospel

00:38:23.279 --> 00:38:23.659
 of the

00:38:23.659 --> 00:38:24.219
 glory of

00:38:24.219 --> 00:38:24.659
 Christ

00:38:24.659 --> 00:38:25.419
 who is

00:38:25.419 --> 00:38:25.919
 the image

00:38:25.919 --> 00:38:26.639
 of God

00:38:26.639 --> 00:38:28.019
 the God

00:38:28.019 --> 00:38:28.879
 of this

00:38:28.879 --> 00:38:29.399
 world

00:38:29.399 --> 00:38:30.739
 has blinded

00:38:30.739 --> 00:38:31.359
 the minds

00:38:31.359 --> 00:38:32.659
 of unbelievers

00:38:32.659 --> 00:38:33.739
 there is a

00:38:33.739 --> 00:38:34.839
 blindness in

00:38:34.839 --> 00:38:35.399
 this world

00:38:35.399 --> 00:38:36.239
 to this day

00:38:36.239 --> 00:38:37.279
 that is not

00:38:37.279 --> 00:38:38.059
 just from the

00:38:38.059 --> 00:38:38.879
 people we see

00:38:38.879 --> 00:38:39.379
 around us

00:38:39.379 --> 00:38:39.919
 the ones we

00:38:39.919 --> 00:38:40.739
 can so easily

00:38:40.739 --> 00:38:41.379
 judge

00:38:41.379 --> 00:38:42.859
 but the

00:38:42.859 --> 00:38:43.299
 blindness

00:38:43.299 --> 00:38:44.059
 that comes

00:38:44.059 --> 00:38:44.839
 from the

00:38:44.839 --> 00:38:45.500
 God of

00:38:45.500 --> 00:38:46.179
 this world

00:38:46.179 --> 00:38:47.379
 and he's

00:38:47.379 --> 00:38:47.959
 talking there

00:38:47.959 --> 00:38:48.859
 about Satan

00:38:48.859 --> 00:38:49.500
 the devil

00:38:49.500 --> 00:38:50.400
 who is

00:38:50.400 --> 00:38:51.059
 active

00:38:51.059 --> 00:38:52.400
 actively

00:38:52.400 --> 00:38:53.380
 blinding

00:38:53.380 --> 00:38:53.880
 people

00:38:53.880 --> 00:38:54.780
 from seeing

00:38:54.780 --> 00:38:55.980
 the glory

00:38:55.980 --> 00:38:56.860
 the gospel

00:38:56.860 --> 00:38:57.579
 of the glory

00:38:57.579 --> 00:38:58.360
 of Christ

00:38:58.360 --> 00:39:01.019
 and so

00:39:01.019 --> 00:39:01.360
 there is

00:39:01.360 --> 00:39:02.059
 blindness

00:39:02.059 --> 00:39:03.539
 all around

00:39:03.539 --> 00:39:04.039
 us

00:39:04.039 --> 00:39:05.380
 and this

00:39:05.380 --> 00:39:06.440
 understanding

00:39:06.440 --> 00:39:07.420
 that Habakkuk

00:39:07.420 --> 00:39:07.800
 has

00:39:07.800 --> 00:39:09.099
 this understanding

00:39:09.099 --> 00:39:10.099
 that Paul

00:39:10.099 --> 00:39:10.599
 has

00:39:10.599 --> 00:39:11.920
 this understanding

00:39:11.920 --> 00:39:12.480
 that we should

00:39:12.480 --> 00:39:13.199
 begin to see

00:39:13.199 --> 00:39:13.980
 more and more

00:39:13.980 --> 00:39:14.320
 of

00:39:14.320 --> 00:39:15.140
 should

00:39:15.140 --> 00:39:16.320
 then shape

00:39:16.320 --> 00:39:17.160
 our lives

00:39:17.160 --> 00:39:17.660
 and how

00:39:17.660 --> 00:39:18.340
 we live

00:39:18.340 --> 00:39:19.400
 and how

00:39:19.400 --> 00:39:20.160
 we pray

00:39:20.160 --> 00:39:20.980
 and how

00:39:20.980 --> 00:39:21.780
 we witness

00:39:21.780 --> 00:39:22.519
 and in

00:39:22.519 --> 00:39:22.980
 everything

00:39:22.980 --> 00:39:23.420
 that we

00:39:23.420 --> 00:39:23.720
 do

00:39:23.720 --> 00:39:25.460
 understanding

00:39:25.460 --> 00:39:26.000
 what is

00:39:26.000 --> 00:39:26.539
 going on

00:39:26.539 --> 00:39:27.200
 around us

00:39:27.200 --> 00:39:27.800
 is so

00:39:27.800 --> 00:39:28.880
 important

00:39:28.880 --> 00:39:30.120
 to that

00:39:30.120 --> 00:39:31.800
 and so

00:39:31.800 --> 00:39:32.260
 as you

00:39:32.260 --> 00:39:32.740
 come into

00:39:32.740 --> 00:39:33.600
 verse 2

00:39:33.600 --> 00:39:34.480
 in the

00:39:34.480 --> 00:39:34.840
 beginning

00:39:34.840 --> 00:39:35.539
 of verse

00:39:35.539 --> 00:39:35.880
 2

00:39:35.880 --> 00:39:36.440
 Habakkuk

00:39:36.440 --> 00:39:37.280
 says there

00:39:37.280 --> 00:39:38.260
 O Lord

00:39:38.260 --> 00:39:38.760
 I have

00:39:38.760 --> 00:39:39.360
 heard

00:39:39.360 --> 00:39:40.240
 the report

00:39:40.240 --> 00:39:40.860
 of you

00:39:40.860 --> 00:39:41.740
 and your

00:39:41.740 --> 00:39:42.280
 work

00:39:42.280 --> 00:39:43.059
 O Lord

00:39:43.059 --> 00:39:44.059
 do I

00:39:44.059 --> 00:39:44.679
 fear

00:39:44.679 --> 00:39:46.219
 now the

00:39:46.219 --> 00:39:46.759
 work of

00:39:46.759 --> 00:39:47.259
 the Lord

00:39:47.259 --> 00:39:48.179
 as we

00:39:48.179 --> 00:39:48.699
 have seen

00:39:48.699 --> 00:39:49.679
 before here

00:39:49.679 --> 00:39:50.880
 is in

00:39:50.880 --> 00:39:51.579
 verse 5

00:39:51.579 --> 00:39:52.139
 of chapter

00:39:52.139 --> 00:39:52.579
 1

00:39:52.579 --> 00:39:53.320
 I am

00:39:53.320 --> 00:39:53.779
 doing a

00:39:53.779 --> 00:39:54.219
 work

00:39:54.219 --> 00:39:54.960
 in your

00:39:54.960 --> 00:39:55.420
 days

00:39:55.420 --> 00:39:55.699
 that you

00:39:55.699 --> 00:39:56.119
 would not

00:39:56.119 --> 00:39:56.679
 believe

00:39:56.679 --> 00:39:57.579
 if I

00:39:57.579 --> 00:39:58.179
 told

00:39:58.179 --> 00:39:59.619
 there were

00:39:59.619 --> 00:40:00.199
 things that

00:40:00.199 --> 00:40:00.679
 left

00:40:00.679 --> 00:40:01.500
 Habakkuk

00:40:01.500 --> 00:40:02.239
 afraid

00:40:02.239 --> 00:40:04.079
 taking into

00:40:04.079 --> 00:40:04.960
 captivity

00:40:04.960 --> 00:40:05.559
 by the

00:40:05.559 --> 00:40:06.259
 Babylonians

00:40:06.259 --> 00:40:07.000
 that God

00:40:07.000 --> 00:40:07.579
 would use

00:40:07.579 --> 00:40:08.320
 this powerful

00:40:08.320 --> 00:40:08.799
 nation

00:40:08.799 --> 00:40:09.619
 ungodly

00:40:09.619 --> 00:40:10.139
 nation

00:40:10.139 --> 00:40:11.539
 to fulfill

00:40:11.539 --> 00:40:12.380
 his work

00:40:12.380 --> 00:40:13.519
 and this

00:40:13.519 --> 00:40:14.039
 work

00:40:14.039 --> 00:40:14.840
 leaves

00:40:14.840 --> 00:40:15.019
 him

00:40:15.019 --> 00:40:15.740
 fearful

00:40:15.740 --> 00:40:17.320
 and leaves

00:40:17.320 --> 00:40:17.480
 him

00:40:17.480 --> 00:40:17.760
 fearful

00:40:17.760 --> 00:40:18.200
 not just

00:40:18.200 --> 00:40:18.820
 for himself

00:40:18.820 --> 00:40:19.240
 but for

00:40:19.240 --> 00:40:19.760
 those who

00:40:19.760 --> 00:40:20.480
 are blind

00:40:20.480 --> 00:40:21.820
 around him

00:40:21.820 --> 00:40:24.099
 and so

00:40:24.099 --> 00:40:24.519
 as he

00:40:24.519 --> 00:40:25.720
 begins his

00:40:25.720 --> 00:40:26.420
 prayer here

00:40:26.420 --> 00:40:26.840
 he says

00:40:26.840 --> 00:40:27.180
 I have

00:40:27.180 --> 00:40:27.800
 heard

00:40:27.800 --> 00:40:28.619
 the report

00:40:28.619 --> 00:40:28.960
 of you

00:40:28.960 --> 00:40:29.260
 and your

00:40:29.260 --> 00:40:29.720
 works

00:40:29.720 --> 00:40:30.300
 O Lord

00:40:30.300 --> 00:40:31.300
 do I

00:40:31.300 --> 00:40:31.980
 fear

00:40:31.980 --> 00:40:33.440
 he's

00:40:33.440 --> 00:40:33.960
 looking

00:40:33.960 --> 00:40:34.640
 to the

00:40:34.640 --> 00:40:35.260
 past

00:40:35.260 --> 00:40:35.800
 he's

00:40:35.800 --> 00:40:36.039
 looking

00:40:36.039 --> 00:40:36.619
 back

00:40:36.619 --> 00:40:37.500
 and he's

00:40:37.500 --> 00:40:38.059
 seeing the

00:40:38.059 --> 00:40:38.720
 things that

00:40:38.720 --> 00:40:39.300
 God has

00:40:39.300 --> 00:40:39.660
 done

00:40:39.659 --> 00:40:40.839
 and this

00:40:40.839 --> 00:40:41.099
 is what

00:40:41.099 --> 00:40:41.699
 shapes

00:40:41.699 --> 00:40:42.119
 his

00:40:42.119 --> 00:40:42.639
 prayer

00:40:42.639 --> 00:40:43.739
 this is

00:40:43.739 --> 00:40:43.899
 what

00:40:43.899 --> 00:40:44.259
 leads

00:40:44.259 --> 00:40:44.440
 him

00:40:44.440 --> 00:40:44.940
 to pray

00:40:44.940 --> 00:40:45.579
 to God

00:40:45.579 --> 00:40:46.319
 to make

00:40:46.319 --> 00:40:46.839
 a difference

00:40:46.839 --> 00:40:47.219
 to make

00:40:47.219 --> 00:40:48.119
 a change

00:40:48.119 --> 00:40:49.359
 because of

00:40:49.359 --> 00:40:50.119
 the blindness

00:40:50.119 --> 00:40:51.399
 that there is

00:40:51.399 --> 00:40:51.839
 he wants

00:40:51.839 --> 00:40:52.420
 them to see

00:40:52.420 --> 00:40:52.920
 God

00:40:52.920 --> 00:40:54.759
 and so

00:40:54.759 --> 00:40:55.480
 for ourselves

00:40:55.480 --> 00:40:56.339
 today we should

00:40:56.339 --> 00:40:57.179
 long for that

00:40:57.179 --> 00:40:57.719
 as well

00:40:57.719 --> 00:40:58.659
 that our

00:40:58.659 --> 00:40:59.219
 people

00:40:59.219 --> 00:41:00.519
 would see

00:41:00.519 --> 00:41:01.519
 Jesus

00:41:01.519 --> 00:41:03.460
 there's a

00:41:03.460 --> 00:41:03.859
 version

00:41:03.859 --> 00:41:04.440
 Job

00:41:04.440 --> 00:41:05.699
 in the last

00:41:05.699 --> 00:41:06.379
 chapter of

00:41:06.379 --> 00:41:06.759
 Job

00:41:06.759 --> 00:41:08.000
 chapter 42

00:41:08.000 --> 00:41:09.860
 and it's

00:41:09.860 --> 00:41:10.199
 coming to

00:41:10.199 --> 00:41:10.960
 the conclusion

00:41:10.960 --> 00:41:11.840
 of all

00:41:11.840 --> 00:41:12.420
 that he's

00:41:12.420 --> 00:41:13.199
 experienced

00:41:13.199 --> 00:41:13.659
 in life

00:41:13.659 --> 00:41:14.019
 Job

00:41:14.019 --> 00:41:15.000
 who lost

00:41:15.000 --> 00:41:15.840
 so much

00:41:15.840 --> 00:41:17.480
 whose life

00:41:17.480 --> 00:41:17.980
 was just

00:41:17.980 --> 00:41:18.840
 turned upside

00:41:18.840 --> 00:41:19.500
 down

00:41:19.500 --> 00:41:20.579
 who suffered

00:41:20.579 --> 00:41:21.340
 in so many

00:41:21.340 --> 00:41:21.920
 ways

00:41:21.920 --> 00:41:23.119
 and yet in

00:41:23.119 --> 00:41:24.139
 chapter 42

00:41:24.139 --> 00:41:25.440
 just before

00:41:25.440 --> 00:41:25.940
 you see

00:41:25.940 --> 00:41:26.480
 the Lord

00:41:26.480 --> 00:41:27.599
 restore so

00:41:27.599 --> 00:41:28.159
 much to

00:41:28.159 --> 00:41:28.360
 him

00:41:28.360 --> 00:41:29.199
 what you

00:41:29.199 --> 00:41:29.920
 hear Job

00:41:29.920 --> 00:41:30.380
 saying is

00:41:30.380 --> 00:41:30.619
 as he

00:41:30.619 --> 00:41:31.199
 comes in

00:41:31.199 --> 00:41:31.780
 repentance

00:41:31.780 --> 00:41:33.000
 he says

00:41:33.000 --> 00:41:33.420
 in verse

00:41:33.420 --> 00:41:34.119
 5 of

00:41:34.119 --> 00:41:34.820
 chapter 42

00:41:34.820 --> 00:41:35.300
 I had

00:41:35.300 --> 00:41:35.980
 heard of

00:41:35.980 --> 00:41:36.300
 you

00:41:36.300 --> 00:41:37.179
 by the

00:41:37.179 --> 00:41:37.780
 hearing of

00:41:37.780 --> 00:41:37.980
 the

00:41:37.980 --> 00:41:38.380
 ear

00:41:38.380 --> 00:41:39.780
 but now

00:41:39.780 --> 00:41:41.160
 my eyes

00:41:41.160 --> 00:41:42.040
 see

00:41:42.040 --> 00:41:42.560
 you

00:41:42.560 --> 00:41:45.680
 I had

00:41:45.680 --> 00:41:46.440
 heard about

00:41:46.440 --> 00:41:46.720
 you

00:41:46.720 --> 00:41:47.800
 but now

00:41:47.800 --> 00:41:49.060
 I see

00:41:49.060 --> 00:41:49.600
 you

00:41:49.600 --> 00:41:51.500
 and there's a

00:41:51.500 --> 00:41:52.519
 wonderful power

00:41:52.519 --> 00:41:53.640
 in that for

00:41:53.640 --> 00:41:54.440
 us as well

00:41:54.440 --> 00:41:54.760
 we have

00:41:54.760 --> 00:41:55.500
 heard

00:41:55.500 --> 00:41:56.680
 of God

00:41:56.680 --> 00:41:57.680
 we have

00:41:57.680 --> 00:41:58.240
 heard of

00:41:58.240 --> 00:41:58.580
 God

00:41:58.580 --> 00:41:59.060
 through his

00:41:59.060 --> 00:41:59.740
 word again

00:41:59.740 --> 00:42:00.300
 and again

00:42:00.300 --> 00:42:01.900
 but our

00:42:01.900 --> 00:42:02.480
 prayer is

00:42:02.480 --> 00:42:03.160
 to see

00:42:03.160 --> 00:42:04.780
 to see

00:42:04.780 --> 00:42:05.160
 him

00:42:05.159 --> 00:42:06.679
 and that

00:42:06.679 --> 00:42:07.179
 is where

00:42:07.179 --> 00:42:07.879
 this prayer

00:42:07.879 --> 00:42:09.099
 begins

00:42:09.099 --> 00:42:10.659
 Habakkuk

00:42:10.659 --> 00:42:11.579
 is one

00:42:11.579 --> 00:42:12.460
 whose eyes

00:42:12.460 --> 00:42:13.339
 have been

00:42:13.339 --> 00:42:13.899
 opened

00:42:13.899 --> 00:42:15.619
 he is not

00:42:15.619 --> 00:42:16.319
 blind but he

00:42:16.319 --> 00:42:17.059
 is seeing a

00:42:17.059 --> 00:42:18.339
 people around

00:42:18.339 --> 00:42:19.139
 him who are

00:42:19.139 --> 00:42:20.399
 blind and

00:42:20.399 --> 00:42:21.099
 his longing

00:42:21.099 --> 00:42:22.440
 is that

00:42:22.440 --> 00:42:23.239
 these people

00:42:23.239 --> 00:42:24.139
 will be led

00:42:24.139 --> 00:42:25.319
 to see the

00:42:25.319 --> 00:42:26.039
 glory of

00:42:26.039 --> 00:42:26.519
 God

00:42:26.519 --> 00:42:27.679
 once again

00:42:27.679 --> 00:42:29.500
 and so

00:42:29.500 --> 00:42:30.839
 for ourselves

00:42:30.839 --> 00:42:31.500
 too

00:42:31.500 --> 00:42:32.419
 as we

00:42:32.419 --> 00:42:33.079
 think of

00:42:33.079 --> 00:42:33.559
 where we

00:42:33.559 --> 00:42:34.079
 begin

00:42:34.079 --> 00:42:35.259
 looking at

00:42:35.259 --> 00:42:36.039
 this verse

00:42:36.039 --> 00:42:37.079
 a prayer of

00:42:37.079 --> 00:42:37.899
 Habakkuk

00:42:37.899 --> 00:42:38.539
 to God

00:42:38.539 --> 00:42:39.519
 is that

00:42:39.519 --> 00:42:40.199
 our longing

00:42:40.199 --> 00:42:42.059
 is that

00:42:42.059 --> 00:42:42.940
 our desire

00:42:42.940 --> 00:42:44.599
 to see the

00:42:44.599 --> 00:42:45.440
 people around

00:42:45.440 --> 00:42:46.500
 us blinded

00:42:46.500 --> 00:42:47.319
 by the God

00:42:47.319 --> 00:42:47.779
 of this

00:42:47.779 --> 00:42:48.259
 world

00:42:48.259 --> 00:42:49.779
 but our

00:42:49.779 --> 00:42:50.199
 longing

00:42:50.199 --> 00:42:51.199
 that they

00:42:51.199 --> 00:42:52.019
 would see

00:42:52.019 --> 00:42:53.039
 Jesus

00:42:53.039 --> 00:42:55.880
 a

00:42:55.880 --> 00:42:56.480
 realization

00:42:56.480 --> 00:42:57.820
 and understanding

00:42:57.820 --> 00:42:58.179
 of the

00:42:58.179 --> 00:42:58.920
 situation

00:42:58.920 --> 00:43:00.039
 secondly

00:43:00.039 --> 00:43:00.900
 is what

00:43:00.900 --> 00:43:01.940
 gives Habakkuk

00:43:01.940 --> 00:43:03.320
 this boldness

00:43:03.320 --> 00:43:04.039
 as he

00:43:04.039 --> 00:43:04.639
 approaches

00:43:04.639 --> 00:43:05.340
 God

00:43:05.340 --> 00:43:06.639
 there is

00:43:06.639 --> 00:43:06.940
 both

00:43:06.940 --> 00:43:07.779
 boldness

00:43:07.779 --> 00:43:09.159
 and urgency

00:43:09.159 --> 00:43:09.599
 in his

00:43:09.599 --> 00:43:10.139
 approaching

00:43:10.139 --> 00:43:10.779
 God

00:43:10.779 --> 00:43:13.039
 and you

00:43:13.039 --> 00:43:13.599
 see that

00:43:13.599 --> 00:43:14.139
 in the

00:43:14.139 --> 00:43:14.619
 middle of

00:43:14.619 --> 00:43:15.199
 verse 2

00:43:15.199 --> 00:43:15.559
 where he

00:43:15.559 --> 00:43:15.900
 says

00:43:15.900 --> 00:43:16.300
 in the

00:43:16.300 --> 00:43:16.759
 midst

00:43:16.759 --> 00:43:17.360
 of the

00:43:17.360 --> 00:43:17.940
 years

00:43:17.940 --> 00:43:19.000
 revive it

00:43:19.000 --> 00:43:19.400
 in the

00:43:19.400 --> 00:43:19.759
 midst

00:43:19.759 --> 00:43:20.579
 of the

00:43:20.579 --> 00:43:21.179
 years

00:43:21.179 --> 00:43:22.219
 make it

00:43:22.219 --> 00:43:22.639
 known

00:43:22.639 --> 00:43:23.839
 he is

00:43:23.839 --> 00:43:24.219
 talking

00:43:24.219 --> 00:43:24.739
 here

00:43:24.739 --> 00:43:25.599
 about

00:43:25.599 --> 00:43:25.920
 his

00:43:25.920 --> 00:43:26.519
 work

00:43:26.519 --> 00:43:26.859
 the

00:43:26.859 --> 00:43:27.299
 work

00:43:27.299 --> 00:43:28.099
 of

00:43:28.099 --> 00:43:28.579
 God

00:43:28.579 --> 00:43:29.960
 and again

00:43:29.960 --> 00:43:30.259
 when you

00:43:30.259 --> 00:43:30.779
 think of

00:43:30.779 --> 00:43:31.679
 verse 5

00:43:31.679 --> 00:43:32.299
 in chapter

00:43:32.299 --> 00:43:32.759
 1

00:43:32.759 --> 00:43:34.259
 it says

00:43:34.259 --> 00:43:34.679
 therefore

00:43:34.679 --> 00:43:35.099
 I am

00:43:35.099 --> 00:43:35.559
 doing a

00:43:35.559 --> 00:43:35.980
 work

00:43:35.980 --> 00:43:36.920
 in your

00:43:36.920 --> 00:43:37.619
 days

00:43:37.619 --> 00:43:38.619
 that you

00:43:38.619 --> 00:43:39.019
 would not

00:43:39.019 --> 00:43:39.579
 believe

00:43:39.579 --> 00:43:40.519
 if told

00:43:40.519 --> 00:43:41.839
 so there's

00:43:41.839 --> 00:43:42.559
 a short

00:43:42.559 --> 00:43:43.199
 nature to

00:43:43.199 --> 00:43:43.460
 this

00:43:43.460 --> 00:43:44.480
 the work

00:43:44.480 --> 00:43:45.619
 in his

00:43:45.619 --> 00:43:46.319
 days

00:43:46.319 --> 00:43:48.420
 but now

00:43:48.420 --> 00:43:49.379
 Habakkuk's

00:43:49.379 --> 00:43:50.119
 prayer is

00:43:50.119 --> 00:43:50.879
 looking beyond

00:43:50.879 --> 00:43:51.400
 this

00:43:51.400 --> 00:43:52.720
 there is

00:43:52.720 --> 00:43:53.320
 this work

00:43:53.320 --> 00:43:53.660
 that is

00:43:53.660 --> 00:43:54.160
 necessary

00:43:54.160 --> 00:43:54.579
 in their

00:43:54.579 --> 00:43:54.900
 day

00:43:54.900 --> 00:43:55.700
 to bring

00:43:55.700 --> 00:43:56.059
 them to

00:43:56.059 --> 00:43:56.660
 repentance

00:43:56.660 --> 00:43:58.200
 but now

00:43:58.200 --> 00:43:58.500
 he is

00:43:58.500 --> 00:43:58.760
 looking

00:43:58.760 --> 00:43:59.240
 further

00:43:59.240 --> 00:43:59.680
 ahead

00:43:59.680 --> 00:43:59.980
 and he

00:43:59.980 --> 00:44:00.139
 says

00:44:00.139 --> 00:44:00.420
 in the

00:44:00.420 --> 00:44:00.680
 midst

00:44:00.680 --> 00:44:01.039
 of the

00:44:01.039 --> 00:44:01.780
 years

00:44:01.780 --> 00:44:02.700
 revive

00:44:02.700 --> 00:44:03.240
 it

00:44:03.240 --> 00:44:04.300
 in the

00:44:04.300 --> 00:44:04.559
 midst

00:44:04.559 --> 00:44:04.920
 of the

00:44:04.920 --> 00:44:05.480
 years

00:44:05.480 --> 00:44:06.420
 make it

00:44:06.420 --> 00:44:06.720
 known

00:44:06.720 --> 00:44:07.740
 so he's

00:44:07.740 --> 00:44:07.960
 saying

00:44:07.960 --> 00:44:08.220
 Lord

00:44:08.220 --> 00:44:08.639
 as we

00:44:08.639 --> 00:44:08.920
 go

00:44:08.920 --> 00:44:09.680
 forward

00:44:09.680 --> 00:44:10.119
 from

00:44:10.119 --> 00:44:10.579
 here

00:44:10.579 --> 00:44:11.519
 as we

00:44:11.519 --> 00:44:11.760
 look

00:44:11.760 --> 00:44:12.240
 ahead

00:44:12.240 --> 00:44:12.760
 from

00:44:12.760 --> 00:44:13.039
 here

00:44:13.039 --> 00:44:13.460
 in these

00:44:13.460 --> 00:44:14.059
 years

00:44:14.059 --> 00:44:15.079
 revive

00:44:15.079 --> 00:44:15.820
 your

00:44:15.820 --> 00:44:16.400
 work

00:44:16.400 --> 00:44:18.160
 and not

00:44:18.160 --> 00:44:18.400
 just

00:44:18.400 --> 00:44:19.280
 the work

00:44:19.280 --> 00:44:20.880
 of bringing

00:44:20.880 --> 00:44:21.420
 them into

00:44:21.420 --> 00:44:22.099
 captivity

00:44:22.099 --> 00:44:22.940
 as we

00:44:22.940 --> 00:44:23.340
 see in

00:44:23.340 --> 00:44:24.099
 chapter 1

00:44:24.099 --> 00:44:24.860
 verse 5

00:44:24.860 --> 00:44:26.460
 but more

00:44:26.460 --> 00:44:27.440
 bringing them

00:44:27.440 --> 00:44:28.260
 into freedom

00:44:28.260 --> 00:44:30.320
 bringing them

00:44:30.320 --> 00:44:30.800
 into the

00:44:30.800 --> 00:44:31.599
 presence of

00:44:31.599 --> 00:44:32.039
 God

00:44:32.039 --> 00:44:32.960
 in a more

00:44:32.960 --> 00:44:33.539
 blessed

00:44:33.539 --> 00:44:34.500
 way

00:44:34.500 --> 00:44:35.400
 in the

00:44:35.400 --> 00:44:35.780
 midst

00:44:35.780 --> 00:44:36.500
 of the

00:44:36.500 --> 00:44:37.039
 years

00:44:37.039 --> 00:44:38.440
 revive it

00:44:38.440 --> 00:44:40.280
 what do

00:44:40.280 --> 00:44:40.780
 you think

00:44:40.780 --> 00:44:41.000
 of

00:44:41.000 --> 00:44:41.280
 when you

00:44:41.280 --> 00:44:41.700
 think

00:44:41.700 --> 00:44:41.960
 of

00:44:41.960 --> 00:44:43.039
 revival

00:44:43.039 --> 00:44:43.900
 it's

00:44:43.900 --> 00:44:44.300
 the word

00:44:44.300 --> 00:44:44.519
 that we

00:44:44.519 --> 00:44:44.980
 hear

00:44:44.980 --> 00:44:46.039
 and pray

00:44:46.039 --> 00:44:46.800
 so often

00:44:46.800 --> 00:44:47.460
 that the

00:44:47.460 --> 00:44:48.000
 Lord would

00:44:48.000 --> 00:44:48.360
 bring

00:44:48.360 --> 00:44:49.099
 revival

00:44:49.099 --> 00:44:49.659
 but do

00:44:49.659 --> 00:44:50.059
 we really

00:44:50.059 --> 00:44:50.460
 know

00:44:50.460 --> 00:44:51.240
 what that

00:44:51.240 --> 00:44:51.800
 would look

00:44:51.800 --> 00:44:52.240
 like

00:44:52.240 --> 00:44:52.740
 our

00:44:52.740 --> 00:44:53.519
 expectations

00:44:53.519 --> 00:44:54.159
 of it

00:44:54.159 --> 00:44:54.740
 may be

00:44:54.740 --> 00:44:55.519
 better

00:44:55.519 --> 00:44:56.139
 days

00:44:56.139 --> 00:44:57.260
 blessed

00:44:57.260 --> 00:44:57.880
 days

00:44:57.880 --> 00:44:59.019
 easier

00:44:59.019 --> 00:44:59.519
 days

00:44:59.519 --> 00:44:59.840
 to be

00:44:59.840 --> 00:45:00.019
 a

00:45:00.019 --> 00:45:00.480
 Christian

00:45:00.480 --> 00:45:02.099
 but the

00:45:02.099 --> 00:45:02.579
 reality

00:45:02.579 --> 00:45:03.559
 of revival

00:45:03.559 --> 00:45:04.400
 is so

00:45:04.400 --> 00:45:04.800
 often

00:45:04.800 --> 00:45:05.559
 something

00:45:05.559 --> 00:45:06.119
 else

00:45:06.119 --> 00:45:07.980
 it may

00:45:07.980 --> 00:45:08.240
 be

00:45:08.240 --> 00:45:08.599
 many

00:45:08.599 --> 00:45:08.880
 of

00:45:08.880 --> 00:45:09.159
 these

00:45:09.159 --> 00:45:09.740
 things

00:45:09.740 --> 00:45:10.699
 it may

00:45:10.699 --> 00:45:10.860
 be

00:45:10.860 --> 00:45:11.199
 that our

00:45:11.199 --> 00:45:11.539
 prayer

00:45:11.539 --> 00:45:11.780
 is

00:45:11.780 --> 00:45:12.400
 that we

00:45:12.400 --> 00:45:12.579
 would

00:45:12.579 --> 00:45:12.900
 have

00:45:12.900 --> 00:45:13.400
 days

00:45:13.400 --> 00:45:13.760
 like

00:45:13.760 --> 00:45:14.139
 that

00:45:14.139 --> 00:45:15.079
 but

00:45:15.079 --> 00:45:15.699
 revival

00:45:15.699 --> 00:45:16.280
 begins

00:45:16.280 --> 00:45:16.699
 with a

00:45:16.699 --> 00:45:17.599
 realization

00:45:17.599 --> 00:45:19.699
 a

00:45:19.699 --> 00:45:20.280
 realization

00:45:20.280 --> 00:45:21.059
 that there

00:45:21.059 --> 00:45:21.940
 is decay

00:45:21.940 --> 00:45:23.159
 and even

00:45:23.159 --> 00:45:23.760
 death

00:45:23.760 --> 00:45:24.960
 spiritually

00:45:24.960 --> 00:45:25.460
 at a

00:45:25.460 --> 00:45:25.880
 time

00:45:25.880 --> 00:45:27.420
 and that's

00:45:27.420 --> 00:45:28.059
 what Habakkuk

00:45:28.059 --> 00:45:28.699
 is seeing

00:45:28.699 --> 00:45:29.519
 in his

00:45:29.519 --> 00:45:29.880
 day

00:45:29.880 --> 00:45:30.840
 there is

00:45:30.840 --> 00:45:31.340
 decay

00:45:31.340 --> 00:45:32.179
 there is

00:45:32.179 --> 00:45:32.619
 death

00:45:32.619 --> 00:45:33.440
 all around

00:45:33.440 --> 00:45:33.699
 him

00:45:33.699 --> 00:45:35.119
 we saw

00:45:35.119 --> 00:45:35.659
 in chapter

00:45:35.659 --> 00:45:36.480
 2 as we

00:45:36.480 --> 00:45:37.000
 looked through

00:45:37.000 --> 00:45:37.400
 it that there

00:45:37.400 --> 00:45:38.139
 were five

00:45:38.139 --> 00:45:39.119
 woes

00:45:39.119 --> 00:45:40.680
 and woe

00:45:40.680 --> 00:45:41.360
 was a

00:45:41.360 --> 00:45:41.960
 word for

00:45:41.960 --> 00:45:42.440
 death

00:45:42.440 --> 00:45:43.119
 and there

00:45:43.119 --> 00:45:43.559
 are five

00:45:43.559 --> 00:45:44.059
 things

00:45:44.059 --> 00:45:45.099
 that brought

00:45:45.099 --> 00:45:45.680
 death

00:45:45.680 --> 00:45:46.240
 into their

00:45:46.240 --> 00:45:46.559
 midst

00:45:46.559 --> 00:45:47.099
 because they

00:45:47.099 --> 00:45:47.519
 had lost

00:45:47.519 --> 00:45:48.180
 sight

00:45:48.180 --> 00:45:49.400
 of God

00:45:49.400 --> 00:45:51.059
 and so

00:45:51.059 --> 00:45:51.400
 as

00:45:51.400 --> 00:45:52.720
 Habakkuk

00:45:52.720 --> 00:45:53.380
 is praying

00:45:53.380 --> 00:45:53.960
 now he is

00:45:53.960 --> 00:45:54.420
 praying in

00:45:54.420 --> 00:45:54.960
 the midst

00:45:54.960 --> 00:45:55.380
 of this

00:45:55.380 --> 00:45:55.920
 decay

00:45:55.920 --> 00:45:56.700
 in the

00:45:56.700 --> 00:45:57.059
 midst

00:45:57.059 --> 00:45:57.660
 of this

00:45:57.660 --> 00:45:58.059
 death

00:45:58.059 --> 00:45:58.360
 that in

00:45:58.360 --> 00:45:58.820
 the midst

00:45:58.820 --> 00:45:59.320
 of all

00:45:59.320 --> 00:45:59.740
 of this

00:45:59.740 --> 00:46:00.480
 that the

00:46:00.480 --> 00:46:01.139
 Lord would

00:46:01.139 --> 00:46:01.760
 revive

00:46:01.760 --> 00:46:03.260
 his work

00:46:03.260 --> 00:46:04.800
 and the

00:46:04.800 --> 00:46:05.740
 word revive

00:46:05.740 --> 00:46:06.260
 has that

00:46:06.260 --> 00:46:07.320
 very sense

00:46:07.320 --> 00:46:08.160
 about it

00:46:08.160 --> 00:46:10.140
 it's

00:46:10.140 --> 00:46:10.520
 linked

00:46:10.520 --> 00:46:11.480
 to death

00:46:11.480 --> 00:46:12.920
 and you

00:46:12.920 --> 00:46:13.540
 think of

00:46:13.540 --> 00:46:14.840
 the defibrillators

00:46:14.840 --> 00:46:15.300
 we have

00:46:15.300 --> 00:46:16.360
 around our

00:46:16.360 --> 00:46:16.960
 communities

00:46:16.960 --> 00:46:17.980
 they've been

00:46:17.980 --> 00:46:18.900
 placed there

00:46:18.900 --> 00:46:19.860
 because of

00:46:19.860 --> 00:46:20.420
 a need

00:46:20.420 --> 00:46:21.760
 a need

00:46:21.760 --> 00:46:22.060
 if an

00:46:22.060 --> 00:46:22.700
 emergency

00:46:22.700 --> 00:46:23.360
 arises

00:46:23.360 --> 00:46:24.960
 that someone

00:46:24.960 --> 00:46:25.260
 will be

00:46:25.260 --> 00:46:25.980
 brought back

00:46:25.980 --> 00:46:26.740
 to life

00:46:26.740 --> 00:46:28.180
 using that

00:46:28.180 --> 00:46:29.960
 and that

00:46:29.960 --> 00:46:30.500
 is the

00:46:30.500 --> 00:46:31.320
 very urgency

00:46:31.320 --> 00:46:31.860
 of this

00:46:31.860 --> 00:46:32.360
 prayer

00:46:32.360 --> 00:46:33.039
 as well

00:46:33.039 --> 00:46:33.960
 revive

00:46:33.960 --> 00:46:34.760
 is so

00:46:34.760 --> 00:46:35.300
 closely

00:46:35.300 --> 00:46:35.740
 linked

00:46:35.740 --> 00:46:36.620
 to death

00:46:36.620 --> 00:46:38.160
 a people

00:46:38.160 --> 00:46:39.000
 who are

00:46:39.000 --> 00:46:39.640
 perishing

00:46:39.640 --> 00:46:40.740
 a people

00:46:40.740 --> 00:46:41.320
 as Paul

00:46:41.320 --> 00:46:42.000
 describes

00:46:42.000 --> 00:46:42.260
 in the

00:46:42.260 --> 00:46:42.940
 New Testament

00:46:42.940 --> 00:46:43.900
 as those

00:46:43.900 --> 00:46:44.260
 who are

00:46:44.260 --> 00:46:44.680
 dead

00:46:44.680 --> 00:46:45.320
 in their

00:46:45.320 --> 00:46:46.059
 trespasses

00:46:46.059 --> 00:46:47.019
 and sins

00:46:47.019 --> 00:46:48.960
 the people

00:46:48.960 --> 00:46:49.559
 here were

00:46:49.559 --> 00:46:50.400
 under severe

00:46:50.400 --> 00:46:50.960
 oppression

00:46:50.960 --> 00:46:51.720
 from the

00:46:51.720 --> 00:46:52.800
 Babylonians

00:46:52.800 --> 00:46:54.740
 one commentator

00:46:54.740 --> 00:46:55.240
 puts it

00:46:55.240 --> 00:46:55.640
 like this

00:46:55.640 --> 00:46:56.120
 he says

00:46:56.120 --> 00:46:56.660
 the people

00:46:56.660 --> 00:46:57.120
 are either

00:46:57.120 --> 00:46:57.559
 dead

00:46:57.559 --> 00:46:58.320
 or under

00:46:58.320 --> 00:46:58.940
 the threat

00:46:58.940 --> 00:46:59.860
 of extinction

00:46:59.860 --> 00:47:01.420
 this is how

00:47:01.420 --> 00:47:02.220
 close they

00:47:02.220 --> 00:47:02.980
 are to

00:47:02.980 --> 00:47:03.500
 the end

00:47:03.500 --> 00:47:04.700
 and in

00:47:04.700 --> 00:47:05.160
 this he

00:47:05.160 --> 00:47:05.860
 pleads with

00:47:05.860 --> 00:47:06.420
 God to

00:47:06.420 --> 00:47:07.420
 act to

00:47:07.420 --> 00:47:08.140
 save

00:47:08.140 --> 00:47:09.340
 and deliver

00:47:09.340 --> 00:47:11.059
 this is the

00:47:11.059 --> 00:47:11.880
 revival that

00:47:11.880 --> 00:47:12.660
 Habakkuk is

00:47:12.660 --> 00:47:13.360
 looking for

00:47:13.360 --> 00:47:14.360
 this is the

00:47:14.360 --> 00:47:15.120
 revival that

00:47:15.120 --> 00:47:15.820
 Psalm 85

00:47:15.820 --> 00:47:16.760
 is speaking

00:47:16.760 --> 00:47:17.059
 about

00:47:17.059 --> 00:47:17.900
 this is the

00:47:17.900 --> 00:47:18.740
 revival that

00:47:18.740 --> 00:47:19.240
 we need

00:47:19.240 --> 00:47:19.780
 today

00:47:19.780 --> 00:47:21.220
 is to see

00:47:21.220 --> 00:47:21.800
 the death

00:47:21.800 --> 00:47:22.440
 and decay

00:47:22.440 --> 00:47:23.559
 that is all

00:47:23.559 --> 00:47:24.200
 around us

00:47:24.200 --> 00:47:24.680
 and that the

00:47:24.680 --> 00:47:25.220
 Lord would

00:47:25.220 --> 00:47:26.260
 come and

00:47:26.260 --> 00:47:27.079
 work in his

00:47:27.079 --> 00:47:28.140
 power to

00:47:28.140 --> 00:47:29.039
 bring life

00:47:29.039 --> 00:47:32.239
 that what

00:47:32.239 --> 00:47:32.699
 is the

00:47:32.699 --> 00:47:33.340
 work of

00:47:33.340 --> 00:47:33.900
 God that

00:47:33.900 --> 00:47:34.559
 Habakkuk is

00:47:34.559 --> 00:47:35.340
 speaking of

00:47:35.340 --> 00:47:35.679
 here

00:47:35.679 --> 00:47:36.960
 what do we

00:47:36.960 --> 00:47:37.980
 pray for when

00:47:37.980 --> 00:47:38.539
 we think of

00:47:38.539 --> 00:47:39.159
 praying for

00:47:39.159 --> 00:47:39.739
 revival

00:47:39.739 --> 00:47:40.779
 is it that

00:47:40.779 --> 00:47:41.800
 our praise

00:47:41.800 --> 00:47:42.460
 would be more

00:47:42.460 --> 00:47:43.579
 loud and

00:47:43.579 --> 00:47:44.139
 full

00:47:44.139 --> 00:47:45.279
 is it that

00:47:45.279 --> 00:47:46.000
 our prayers

00:47:46.000 --> 00:47:46.599
 would be more

00:47:46.599 --> 00:47:47.960
 powerful and

00:47:47.960 --> 00:47:48.759
 urgent

00:47:48.759 --> 00:47:50.119
 is it that

00:47:50.119 --> 00:47:50.779
 our lives

00:47:50.779 --> 00:47:51.219
 would be less

00:47:51.219 --> 00:47:52.000
 tainted by

00:47:52.000 --> 00:47:52.480
 sin

00:47:52.480 --> 00:47:54.179
 we can have

00:47:54.179 --> 00:47:54.940
 all of these

00:47:54.940 --> 00:47:55.519
 things

00:47:55.519 --> 00:47:57.639
 but the

00:47:57.639 --> 00:47:58.759
 greatest work

00:47:58.759 --> 00:47:59.259
 in view

00:47:59.259 --> 00:48:00.840
 here is to

00:48:00.840 --> 00:48:01.639
 bring life

00:48:01.639 --> 00:48:02.579
 to the dead

00:48:02.579 --> 00:48:05.099
 for God's

00:48:05.099 --> 00:48:06.480
 saving work

00:48:06.480 --> 00:48:07.659
 to be known

00:48:07.659 --> 00:48:08.639
 in their

00:48:08.639 --> 00:48:09.059
 midst

00:48:09.059 --> 00:48:11.119
 so that

00:48:11.119 --> 00:48:11.579
 people will be

00:48:11.579 --> 00:48:12.559
 made alive

00:48:12.559 --> 00:48:13.780
 in Christ

00:48:13.780 --> 00:48:15.039
 in our day

00:48:15.039 --> 00:48:15.920
 so that as we

00:48:15.920 --> 00:48:16.440
 look around

00:48:16.440 --> 00:48:17.059
 we would see

00:48:17.059 --> 00:48:17.659
 many being

00:48:17.659 --> 00:48:18.699
 born again

00:48:18.699 --> 00:48:19.820
 to a living

00:48:19.820 --> 00:48:20.400
 hope

00:48:20.400 --> 00:48:21.940
 see a day

00:48:21.940 --> 00:48:23.280
 of salvation

00:48:23.280 --> 00:48:25.300
 not an easier

00:48:25.300 --> 00:48:26.220
 day to live

00:48:26.220 --> 00:48:27.040
 as a Christian

00:48:27.040 --> 00:48:28.600
 but a day

00:48:28.600 --> 00:48:29.060
 when we will

00:48:29.060 --> 00:48:29.860
 be bold

00:48:29.860 --> 00:48:30.780
 when we will

00:48:30.780 --> 00:48:31.540
 be courageous

00:48:31.540 --> 00:48:32.040
 when we will

00:48:32.040 --> 00:48:32.780
 be strengthened

00:48:32.780 --> 00:48:33.440
 in the Lord

00:48:33.440 --> 00:48:34.400
 in the midst

00:48:34.400 --> 00:48:35.019
 of all the

00:48:35.019 --> 00:48:35.600
 challenges

00:48:35.600 --> 00:48:37.880
 to be bold

00:48:37.880 --> 00:48:39.220
 towards God

00:48:39.220 --> 00:48:40.540
 and to be bold

00:48:40.540 --> 00:48:41.760
 for God

00:48:41.760 --> 00:48:44.480
 that is what

00:48:44.480 --> 00:48:45.780
 Habakkuk is

00:48:45.780 --> 00:48:46.440
 praying here

00:48:46.440 --> 00:48:46.980
 in the midst

00:48:46.980 --> 00:48:47.680
 of the years

00:48:47.680 --> 00:48:48.980
 revive it

00:48:48.980 --> 00:48:50.740
 bring life

00:48:50.740 --> 00:48:51.860
 into our midst

00:48:51.860 --> 00:48:52.880
 when there are

00:48:52.880 --> 00:48:53.900
 people perishing

00:48:53.900 --> 00:48:55.099
 all around

00:48:55.099 --> 00:48:55.599
 us

00:48:55.599 --> 00:48:57.340
 and then he

00:48:57.340 --> 00:48:58.180
 says secondly

00:48:58.180 --> 00:48:58.579
 there

00:48:58.579 --> 00:48:59.660
 in the midst

00:48:59.660 --> 00:49:00.460
 of the years

00:49:00.460 --> 00:49:01.940
 make it known

00:49:01.940 --> 00:49:04.000
 make it known

00:49:04.000 --> 00:49:05.380
 so that it's

00:49:05.380 --> 00:49:05.880
 not just

00:49:05.880 --> 00:49:06.700
 the knowledge

00:49:06.700 --> 00:49:07.320
 of something

00:49:07.320 --> 00:49:08.160
 that could

00:49:08.160 --> 00:49:09.660
 potentially happen

00:49:09.660 --> 00:49:11.460
 not just

00:49:11.460 --> 00:49:12.079
 that knowledge

00:49:12.079 --> 00:49:12.820
 that God

00:49:12.820 --> 00:49:13.880
 may be there

00:49:13.880 --> 00:49:14.680
 for us

00:49:14.680 --> 00:49:16.579
 but make it

00:49:16.579 --> 00:49:16.940
 known

00:49:16.940 --> 00:49:17.980
 make it

00:49:17.980 --> 00:49:18.860
 a reality

00:49:18.860 --> 00:49:19.800
 for us

00:49:19.800 --> 00:49:21.460
 make us

00:49:21.460 --> 00:49:22.580
 see the

00:49:22.580 --> 00:49:23.240
 power of

00:49:23.240 --> 00:49:23.800
 your word

00:49:23.800 --> 00:49:24.260
 throughout

00:49:24.260 --> 00:49:25.100
 hearing of

00:49:25.100 --> 00:49:25.260
 it

00:49:25.260 --> 00:49:26.160
 through our

00:49:26.160 --> 00:49:26.640
 witnessing

00:49:26.640 --> 00:49:27.320
 to it

00:49:27.320 --> 00:49:28.539
 make yourself

00:49:28.539 --> 00:49:29.160
 known

00:49:29.160 --> 00:49:29.880
 and the

00:49:29.880 --> 00:49:30.440
 power that

00:49:30.440 --> 00:49:30.780
 you give

00:49:30.780 --> 00:49:31.140
 to your

00:49:31.140 --> 00:49:31.620
 people

00:49:31.620 --> 00:49:32.320
 to be

00:49:32.320 --> 00:49:32.860
 bold

00:49:32.860 --> 00:49:33.600
 and courageous

00:49:33.600 --> 00:49:34.780
 for you

00:49:34.780 --> 00:49:37.160
 that is what

00:49:37.160 --> 00:49:38.120
 Joshua had

00:49:38.120 --> 00:49:38.880
 to as he

00:49:38.880 --> 00:49:39.720
 took up

00:49:39.720 --> 00:49:40.480
 from Moses

00:49:40.480 --> 00:49:41.200
 the Lord

00:49:41.200 --> 00:49:41.820
 said to him

00:49:41.820 --> 00:49:42.660
 be strong

00:49:42.660 --> 00:49:43.880
 and courageous

00:49:43.880 --> 00:49:45.840
 be bold

00:49:45.840 --> 00:49:46.860
 for the

00:49:46.860 --> 00:49:47.260
 Lord

00:49:47.260 --> 00:49:49.300
 there was a

00:49:49.300 --> 00:49:49.900
 preacher by

00:49:49.900 --> 00:49:50.240
 the name

00:49:50.240 --> 00:49:51.079
 Hugh Latimer

00:49:51.079 --> 00:49:52.140
 he was a

00:49:52.140 --> 00:49:52.579
 minister in

00:49:52.579 --> 00:49:53.460
 the 16th

00:49:53.460 --> 00:49:53.800
 century

00:49:53.800 --> 00:49:54.260
 and he

00:49:54.260 --> 00:49:54.920
 sometimes had

00:49:54.920 --> 00:49:56.099
 occasion to

00:49:56.099 --> 00:49:56.640
 preach to

00:49:56.640 --> 00:49:57.360
 King Henry

00:49:57.360 --> 00:49:57.820
 VIII

00:49:57.820 --> 00:49:59.440
 and I'm sure

00:49:59.440 --> 00:49:59.860
 if you heard

00:49:59.860 --> 00:50:00.400
 anything of

00:50:00.400 --> 00:50:00.940
 King Henry

00:50:00.940 --> 00:50:01.360
 VIII

00:50:01.360 --> 00:50:02.320
 it would be

00:50:02.320 --> 00:50:03.079
 a terrifying

00:50:03.079 --> 00:50:03.840
 thought to

00:50:03.840 --> 00:50:04.340
 go and maybe

00:50:04.340 --> 00:50:05.440
 preach in

00:50:05.440 --> 00:50:06.200
 front of him

00:50:06.200 --> 00:50:07.519
 and this time

00:50:07.519 --> 00:50:07.800
 when he was

00:50:07.800 --> 00:50:08.200
 going to

00:50:08.200 --> 00:50:09.340
 preach before

00:50:09.340 --> 00:50:09.920
 him he said

00:50:09.920 --> 00:50:11.059
 he thought

00:50:11.059 --> 00:50:11.440
 about the

00:50:11.440 --> 00:50:12.740
 great responsibility

00:50:12.740 --> 00:50:13.260
 he had in

00:50:13.260 --> 00:50:13.720
 bringing

00:50:13.719 --> 00:50:14.899
 the message

00:50:14.899 --> 00:50:15.579
 before the

00:50:15.579 --> 00:50:15.939
 king

00:50:15.939 --> 00:50:17.179
 and as he

00:50:17.179 --> 00:50:17.839
 was preparing

00:50:17.839 --> 00:50:18.679
 he realised

00:50:18.679 --> 00:50:19.579
 it would be

00:50:19.579 --> 00:50:20.219
 a message

00:50:20.219 --> 00:50:20.679
 that the

00:50:20.679 --> 00:50:21.079
 king

00:50:21.079 --> 00:50:22.039
 would not

00:50:22.039 --> 00:50:22.659
 like

00:50:22.659 --> 00:50:23.919
 and yet

00:50:23.919 --> 00:50:24.539
 he began

00:50:24.539 --> 00:50:25.399
 to preach

00:50:25.399 --> 00:50:26.119
 before him

00:50:26.119 --> 00:50:26.639
 with these

00:50:26.639 --> 00:50:27.099
 words

00:50:27.099 --> 00:50:27.539
 he said

00:50:35.119 --> 00:50:35.619
 power

00:50:35.619 --> 00:50:36.539

 you to

00:50:36.859 --> 00:50:37.259

00:50:37.259 --> 00:50:38.039

00:50:38.039 --> 00:50:38.659
 can even

00:50:38.659 --> 00:50:39.159
 have your

00:50:39.159 --> 00:50:39.919
 head cut

00:50:39.919 --> 00:50:40.539

00:50:48.879 --> 00:50:49.339
 paused

00:50:49.339 --> 00:50:49.699
 for a

00:50:49.699 --> 00:50:49.899
 minute

00:51:12.420 --> 00:51:13.560
 and declare

00:51:13.560 --> 00:51:14.340
 all the

00:51:14.340 --> 00:51:14.840
 words

00:51:14.840 --> 00:51:16.019
 of God

00:51:16.019 --> 00:51:18.680
 he faced

00:51:18.680 --> 00:51:19.480
 a choice

00:51:19.480 --> 00:51:20.860
 would he

00:51:20.860 --> 00:51:21.280
 preach

00:51:21.280 --> 00:51:22.500
 to please

00:51:22.500 --> 00:51:23.320
 King Henry

00:51:23.320 --> 00:51:24.660
 or would he

00:51:24.660 --> 00:51:25.100
 preach

00:51:25.100 --> 00:51:26.300
 to please

00:51:26.300 --> 00:51:27.019
 the King

00:51:27.019 --> 00:51:27.780
 of Kings

00:51:27.780 --> 00:51:28.660
 and the

00:51:28.660 --> 00:51:29.060
 Lord

00:51:29.060 --> 00:51:30.260
 of Lords

00:51:30.260 --> 00:51:32.820
 he chose

00:51:32.820 --> 00:51:33.400
 to preach

00:51:33.400 --> 00:51:34.200
 for Christ

00:51:34.199 --> 00:51:36.339
 and later

00:51:36.339 --> 00:51:36.960
 on in his

00:51:36.960 --> 00:51:37.339
 life

00:51:37.339 --> 00:51:38.559
 he lost

00:51:38.559 --> 00:51:39.059
 his life

00:51:39.059 --> 00:51:39.379
 as one

00:51:39.379 --> 00:51:39.659
 of the

00:51:39.659 --> 00:51:40.339
 martyrs

00:51:40.339 --> 00:51:41.139
 for being

00:51:41.139 --> 00:51:41.779
 faithful

00:51:41.779 --> 00:51:42.739
 to his

00:51:42.739 --> 00:51:43.139
 Lord

00:51:43.139 --> 00:51:44.719
 but he

00:51:44.719 --> 00:51:45.519
 was bold

00:51:45.519 --> 00:51:46.519
 he was

00:51:46.519 --> 00:51:47.199
 courageous

00:51:47.199 --> 00:51:48.579
 and may

00:51:48.579 --> 00:51:49.179
 God give

00:51:49.179 --> 00:51:50.139
 us the

00:51:50.139 --> 00:51:50.879
 boldness

00:51:50.879 --> 00:51:51.899
 to make

00:51:51.899 --> 00:51:52.539
 him known

00:51:52.539 --> 00:51:53.759
 in the

00:51:53.759 --> 00:51:54.179
 midst of

00:51:54.179 --> 00:51:54.659
 the years

00:51:54.659 --> 00:51:55.399
 revive it

00:51:55.399 --> 00:51:56.119
 in the

00:51:56.119 --> 00:51:56.639
 midst of

00:51:56.639 --> 00:51:57.339
 the years

00:51:57.339 --> 00:51:58.599
 make it

00:51:58.599 --> 00:51:59.019
 known

00:51:59.019 --> 00:52:00.799
 because this

00:52:00.799 --> 00:52:01.139
 is of

00:52:01.139 --> 00:52:01.799
 eternal

00:52:01.799 --> 00:52:03.339
 importance

00:52:03.340 --> 00:52:05.200
 I read

00:52:05.200 --> 00:52:06.480
 this quote

00:52:06.480 --> 00:52:07.180
 this week

00:52:07.180 --> 00:52:08.300
 it's one

00:52:08.300 --> 00:52:08.559
 of these

00:52:08.559 --> 00:52:09.100
 ones where

00:52:09.100 --> 00:52:09.460
 you just

00:52:09.460 --> 00:52:11.320
 it may not

00:52:11.320 --> 00:52:11.600
 be the

00:52:11.600 --> 00:52:12.039
 reality

00:52:12.039 --> 00:52:12.440
 but it's

00:52:12.440 --> 00:52:12.960
 just something

00:52:12.960 --> 00:52:13.579
 to think

00:52:13.579 --> 00:52:13.900
 about

00:52:13.900 --> 00:52:14.500
 and it

00:52:14.500 --> 00:52:14.780
 said

00:52:14.780 --> 00:52:15.340
 imagine

00:52:15.340 --> 00:52:16.059
 in heaven

00:52:16.059 --> 00:52:17.519
 one day

00:52:17.519 --> 00:52:18.500
 some person

00:52:18.500 --> 00:52:19.220
 walks up

00:52:19.220 --> 00:52:19.559
 to you

00:52:19.559 --> 00:52:20.340
 and says

00:52:20.340 --> 00:52:22.100
 I am

00:52:22.100 --> 00:52:23.039
 here because

00:52:23.039 --> 00:52:23.579
 you weren't

00:52:23.579 --> 00:52:24.160
 ashamed

00:52:24.160 --> 00:52:25.720
 and told

00:52:25.720 --> 00:52:26.100
 me of

00:52:26.100 --> 00:52:26.640
 Jesus

00:52:26.640 --> 00:52:28.280
 thank you

00:52:28.280 --> 00:52:30.559
 it's a

00:52:30.559 --> 00:52:31.019
 powerful

00:52:31.019 --> 00:52:31.640
 thought

00:52:31.639 --> 00:52:33.319
 because

00:52:33.319 --> 00:52:33.619
 there are

00:52:33.619 --> 00:52:34.079
 people

00:52:34.079 --> 00:52:34.719
 perishing

00:52:34.719 --> 00:52:35.500
 around us

00:52:35.500 --> 00:52:36.219
 because

00:52:36.219 --> 00:52:36.739
 they hear

00:52:36.739 --> 00:52:37.199
 nothing

00:52:37.199 --> 00:52:38.400
 of Jesus

00:52:38.400 --> 00:52:39.779
 they are

00:52:39.779 --> 00:52:40.539
 blinded

00:52:40.539 --> 00:52:41.319
 by the

00:52:41.319 --> 00:52:41.779
 God

00:52:41.779 --> 00:52:42.739
 of this

00:52:42.739 --> 00:52:43.199
 world

00:52:43.199 --> 00:52:44.859
 that is

00:52:44.859 --> 00:52:45.659
 the situation

00:52:45.659 --> 00:52:46.500
 of Habakkuk

00:52:46.500 --> 00:52:46.879
 states

00:52:46.879 --> 00:52:47.440
 our own

00:52:47.440 --> 00:52:48.079
 day too

00:52:48.079 --> 00:52:49.219
 there are

00:52:49.219 --> 00:52:49.679
 people

00:52:49.679 --> 00:52:50.400
 who are

00:52:50.400 --> 00:52:50.819
 blind

00:52:50.819 --> 00:52:51.279
 so we

00:52:51.279 --> 00:52:51.679
 pray

00:52:51.679 --> 00:52:52.440
 in the

00:52:52.440 --> 00:52:52.799
 midst of

00:52:52.799 --> 00:52:53.299
 the years

00:52:53.299 --> 00:52:54.039
 revive it

00:52:54.039 --> 00:52:54.819
 in the

00:52:54.819 --> 00:52:55.259
 midst of

00:52:55.259 --> 00:52:55.900
 the years

00:52:55.900 --> 00:52:57.179
 make it

00:52:57.179 --> 00:52:57.799
 known

00:52:57.800 --> 00:53:01.280
 thirdly

00:53:01.280 --> 00:53:01.880
 and finally

00:53:01.880 --> 00:53:02.460
 we see

00:53:02.460 --> 00:53:02.980
 here

00:53:02.980 --> 00:53:04.980
 the

00:53:04.980 --> 00:53:05.560
 blessing

00:53:05.560 --> 00:53:07.039
 that

00:53:07.039 --> 00:53:07.600
 Habakkuk

00:53:07.600 --> 00:53:08.160
 was looking

00:53:08.160 --> 00:53:08.620
 for

00:53:08.620 --> 00:53:10.460
 as God

00:53:10.460 --> 00:53:11.080
 saw the

00:53:11.080 --> 00:53:11.400
 world

00:53:11.400 --> 00:53:11.620
 in

00:53:11.620 --> 00:53:12.380
 Habakkuk's

00:53:12.380 --> 00:53:12.640
 day

00:53:12.640 --> 00:53:13.720
 it would

00:53:13.720 --> 00:53:13.960
 have been

00:53:13.960 --> 00:53:14.320
 easy

00:53:14.320 --> 00:53:14.840
 for his

00:53:14.840 --> 00:53:15.340
 wrath

00:53:15.340 --> 00:53:15.760
 to be

00:53:15.760 --> 00:53:16.200
 poured

00:53:16.200 --> 00:53:16.720
 out

00:53:16.720 --> 00:53:17.940
 because

00:53:17.940 --> 00:53:18.280
 of the

00:53:18.280 --> 00:53:18.700
 sin

00:53:18.700 --> 00:53:19.640
 of this

00:53:19.640 --> 00:53:20.120
 world

00:53:20.120 --> 00:53:20.860
 the same

00:53:20.860 --> 00:53:21.200
 as our

00:53:21.200 --> 00:53:21.480
 own

00:53:21.480 --> 00:53:21.800
 day

00:53:21.800 --> 00:53:22.920
 but look

00:53:22.920 --> 00:53:23.160
 at the

00:53:23.160 --> 00:53:23.680
 wonderful

00:53:23.680 --> 00:53:24.300
 prayer

00:53:24.300 --> 00:53:25.039
 that

00:53:25.039 --> 00:53:25.660
 Habakkuk

00:53:25.659 --> 00:53:26.219
 has

00:53:26.219 --> 00:53:27.619
 these

00:53:27.619 --> 00:53:28.219
 words

00:53:28.219 --> 00:53:28.659
 in

00:53:28.659 --> 00:53:29.219
 wrath

00:53:29.219 --> 00:53:30.859
 remember

00:53:30.859 --> 00:53:32.119
 mercy

00:53:32.119 --> 00:53:34.199
 remember

00:53:34.199 --> 00:53:35.379
 mercy

00:53:35.379 --> 00:53:37.420
 Habakkuk

00:53:37.420 --> 00:53:37.879
 knows

00:53:37.879 --> 00:53:38.279
 that any

00:53:38.279 --> 00:53:38.719
 wrath

00:53:38.719 --> 00:53:39.319
 that God

00:53:39.319 --> 00:53:39.920
 could pour

00:53:39.920 --> 00:53:40.319
 out on

00:53:40.319 --> 00:53:40.899
 his people

00:53:40.899 --> 00:53:41.339
 here

00:53:41.339 --> 00:53:42.139
 it would

00:53:42.139 --> 00:53:42.339
 be

00:53:42.339 --> 00:53:42.980
 justified

00:53:42.980 --> 00:53:45.019
 because

00:53:45.019 --> 00:53:45.699
 sin

00:53:45.699 --> 00:53:46.500
 deserves

00:53:46.500 --> 00:53:46.859
 it

00:53:46.859 --> 00:53:48.899
 but

00:53:48.899 --> 00:53:50.199
 he is

00:53:50.199 --> 00:53:50.699
 pleading

00:53:50.699 --> 00:53:51.440
 with God

00:53:51.440 --> 00:53:52.279
 pleading

00:53:52.279 --> 00:53:52.679
 one of

00:53:52.679 --> 00:53:52.839
 his

00:53:52.839 --> 00:53:53.440
 amazing

00:53:53.440 --> 00:53:53.980
 attributes

00:53:53.980 --> 00:53:55.399
 that he

00:53:55.400 --> 00:53:55.599
 would

00:53:55.599 --> 00:53:56.019
 show

00:53:56.019 --> 00:53:56.740
 mercy

00:53:56.740 --> 00:54:00.000
 go back

00:54:00.000 --> 00:54:00.280
 to the

00:54:00.280 --> 00:54:00.660
 days

00:54:00.660 --> 00:54:01.180
 of Noah

00:54:01.180 --> 00:54:01.559
 and the

00:54:01.559 --> 00:54:01.840
 flood

00:54:01.840 --> 00:54:02.139
 when the

00:54:02.139 --> 00:54:02.920
 Lord saw

00:54:02.920 --> 00:54:04.240
 the wickedness

00:54:04.240 --> 00:54:04.840
 of man

00:54:04.840 --> 00:54:05.820
 and he

00:54:05.820 --> 00:54:05.980
 would have

00:54:05.980 --> 00:54:06.700
 been justified

00:54:06.700 --> 00:54:07.619
 to destroy

00:54:07.619 --> 00:54:08.579
 the whole

00:54:08.579 --> 00:54:08.980
 earth

00:54:08.980 --> 00:54:10.340
 but in

00:54:10.340 --> 00:54:11.240
 Genesis 6

00:54:11.240 --> 00:54:11.820
 verse 8

00:54:11.820 --> 00:54:12.280
 it says

00:54:12.280 --> 00:54:12.900
 but Noah

00:54:12.900 --> 00:54:14.220
 found favour

00:54:14.220 --> 00:54:15.099
 in the eyes

00:54:15.099 --> 00:54:15.519
 of the

00:54:15.519 --> 00:54:15.840
 Lord

00:54:15.840 --> 00:54:17.360
 there was

00:54:17.360 --> 00:54:17.800
 mercy

00:54:17.800 --> 00:54:18.700
 from God

00:54:18.700 --> 00:54:20.599
 go back

00:54:20.599 --> 00:54:20.860
 to the

00:54:20.860 --> 00:54:21.380
 days of

00:54:21.380 --> 00:54:21.780
 Moses

00:54:21.780 --> 00:54:23.420
 when God's

00:54:23.420 --> 00:54:24.099
 people were

00:54:24.099 --> 00:54:24.639
 suffering

00:54:24.639 --> 00:54:25.340
 in Egypt

00:54:25.340 --> 00:54:26.660
 he could

00:54:26.660 --> 00:54:26.960
 have said

00:54:26.960 --> 00:54:27.680
 they deserve

00:54:27.680 --> 00:54:27.960
 it

00:54:27.960 --> 00:54:28.480
 for their

00:54:28.480 --> 00:54:28.900
 sin

00:54:28.900 --> 00:54:30.340
 they can

00:54:30.340 --> 00:54:30.880
 be left

00:54:30.880 --> 00:54:31.460
 there to

00:54:31.460 --> 00:54:31.940
 suffer

00:54:31.940 --> 00:54:33.000
 but in

00:54:33.000 --> 00:54:33.340
 Exodus

00:54:33.340 --> 00:54:34.220
 chapter 2

00:54:34.220 --> 00:54:35.000
 verse 24

00:54:35.000 --> 00:54:35.680
 it says

00:54:35.680 --> 00:54:36.900
 God heard

00:54:36.900 --> 00:54:37.800
 their groaning

00:54:37.800 --> 00:54:39.300
 and God

00:54:39.300 --> 00:54:40.000
 remembered

00:54:40.000 --> 00:54:40.820
 his covenant

00:54:40.820 --> 00:54:41.640
 with Abraham

00:54:41.640 --> 00:54:42.700
 with Isaac

00:54:42.700 --> 00:54:43.220
 and with

00:54:43.220 --> 00:54:43.680
 Jacob

00:54:43.680 --> 00:54:45.019
 God saw

00:54:45.019 --> 00:54:45.640
 the people

00:54:45.640 --> 00:54:46.260
 of Israel

00:54:46.260 --> 00:54:47.420
 and God

00:54:47.420 --> 00:54:47.960
 knew

00:54:47.960 --> 00:54:49.559
 what did

00:54:49.559 --> 00:54:49.960
 he know

00:54:49.960 --> 00:54:51.700
 he knew

00:54:51.699 --> 00:54:52.439
 he knew

00:54:52.439 --> 00:54:52.839
 that they

00:54:52.839 --> 00:54:53.239
 needed

00:54:53.239 --> 00:54:54.099
 mercy

00:54:54.099 --> 00:54:55.519
 and he

00:54:55.519 --> 00:54:56.279
 gave them

00:54:56.279 --> 00:54:57.039
 mercy

00:54:57.039 --> 00:54:58.639
 and so

00:54:58.639 --> 00:54:59.179
 Habakkuk

00:54:59.179 --> 00:54:59.859
 is pleading

00:54:59.859 --> 00:55:00.619
 with God

00:55:00.619 --> 00:55:01.699
 to show

00:55:01.699 --> 00:55:02.399
 his mercy

00:55:02.399 --> 00:55:03.399
 once again

00:55:03.399 --> 00:55:04.919
 even though

00:55:04.919 --> 00:55:05.619
 he could

00:55:05.619 --> 00:55:06.500
 justifiably

00:55:06.500 --> 00:55:07.119
 pour out

00:55:07.119 --> 00:55:07.679
 even more

00:55:07.679 --> 00:55:08.519
 wrath upon

00:55:08.519 --> 00:55:08.739
 them

00:55:08.739 --> 00:55:09.759
 he says

00:55:09.759 --> 00:55:10.439
 in wrath

00:55:10.439 --> 00:55:10.899
 Lord

00:55:10.899 --> 00:55:12.139
 remember

00:55:12.139 --> 00:55:13.019
 your mercy

00:55:13.019 --> 00:55:14.699
 have mercy

00:55:14.699 --> 00:55:15.619
 upon us

00:55:15.619 --> 00:55:17.059
 mercy

00:55:17.059 --> 00:55:17.500
 is a

00:55:17.500 --> 00:55:18.039
 powerful

00:55:18.039 --> 00:55:18.619
 thing

00:55:18.619 --> 00:55:20.599
 a mother

00:55:20.599 --> 00:55:21.279
 once

00:55:21.279 --> 00:55:23.079
 approached

00:55:23.079 --> 00:55:24.059
 Napoleon

00:55:24.059 --> 00:55:25.779
 the great

00:55:25.779 --> 00:55:26.159
 leader

00:55:26.159 --> 00:55:26.559
 of his

00:55:26.559 --> 00:55:26.940
 day

00:55:26.940 --> 00:55:28.000
 and she

00:55:28.000 --> 00:55:28.519
 approached

00:55:28.519 --> 00:55:28.839
 him

00:55:28.839 --> 00:55:29.420
 seeking

00:55:29.420 --> 00:55:30.059
 pardon

00:55:30.059 --> 00:55:31.019
 for her

00:55:31.019 --> 00:55:31.480
 son

00:55:31.480 --> 00:55:34.239
 Napoleon

00:55:34.239 --> 00:55:34.960
 replied

00:55:34.960 --> 00:55:35.259
 that

00:55:35.259 --> 00:55:36.079
 the young

00:55:36.079 --> 00:55:36.400
 man

00:55:36.400 --> 00:55:37.039
 had committed

00:55:37.039 --> 00:55:37.679
 an offense

00:55:37.679 --> 00:55:38.119
 not just

00:55:38.119 --> 00:55:38.639
 once

00:55:38.639 --> 00:55:39.559
 but twice

00:55:39.559 --> 00:55:41.599
 and just

00:55:41.599 --> 00:55:41.980
 as he

00:55:41.980 --> 00:55:42.279
 said

00:55:42.279 --> 00:55:42.960
 demanded

00:55:42.960 --> 00:55:43.619
 death

00:55:43.619 --> 00:55:46.099
 but

00:55:46.099 --> 00:55:46.859
 the mother

00:55:46.859 --> 00:55:47.159
 said

00:55:47.159 --> 00:55:47.599
 I don't

00:55:47.599 --> 00:55:48.219
 ask

00:55:48.219 --> 00:55:48.699
 for

00:55:48.699 --> 00:55:49.440
 justice

00:55:49.440 --> 00:55:50.759
 the mother

00:55:50.759 --> 00:55:51.019
 said

00:55:51.019 --> 00:55:51.719
 I plead

00:55:51.719 --> 00:55:52.920
 for mercy

00:55:52.920 --> 00:55:55.500
 and Napoleon's

00:55:55.500 --> 00:55:56.179
 reply was

00:55:56.179 --> 00:55:56.819
 but your

00:55:56.819 --> 00:55:57.599
 son does

00:55:57.599 --> 00:55:57.980
 not

00:55:57.980 --> 00:55:58.859
 deserve

00:55:58.859 --> 00:55:59.359
 mercy

00:55:59.359 --> 00:56:02.779
 and the

00:56:02.779 --> 00:56:03.079
 woman

00:56:03.079 --> 00:56:03.719
 replied

00:56:03.719 --> 00:56:04.339
 sir

00:56:04.339 --> 00:56:05.799
 it would

00:56:05.799 --> 00:56:06.339
 not be

00:56:06.339 --> 00:56:06.779
 mercy

00:56:06.779 --> 00:56:07.799
 if he

00:56:07.799 --> 00:56:08.420
 deserved

00:56:08.420 --> 00:56:08.779
 it

00:56:08.779 --> 00:56:10.099
 and mercy

00:56:10.099 --> 00:56:10.920
 is all

00:56:10.920 --> 00:56:12.019
 I ask

00:56:12.019 --> 00:56:12.380
 for

00:56:12.380 --> 00:56:14.660
 Napoleon

00:56:14.660 --> 00:56:15.180
 saw

00:56:15.180 --> 00:56:15.480
 this

00:56:15.480 --> 00:56:15.740
 woman

00:56:15.740 --> 00:56:16.260
 pleading

00:56:16.260 --> 00:56:16.780
 in this

00:56:16.780 --> 00:56:17.119
 way

00:56:17.119 --> 00:56:18.140
 and after

00:56:18.140 --> 00:56:18.660
 pausing

00:56:18.660 --> 00:56:19.079
 for a

00:56:19.079 --> 00:56:19.440
 moment

00:56:19.440 --> 00:56:20.500
 he said

00:56:20.500 --> 00:56:21.099
 well then

00:56:21.099 --> 00:56:22.160
 I will

00:56:22.160 --> 00:56:22.440
 have

00:56:22.440 --> 00:56:22.940
 mercy

00:56:22.940 --> 00:56:25.320
 mercy

00:56:25.320 --> 00:56:25.880
 is not

00:56:25.880 --> 00:56:26.519
 something

00:56:26.519 --> 00:56:27.320
 we

00:56:27.320 --> 00:56:27.980
 deserve

00:56:27.980 --> 00:56:29.280
 and yet

00:56:29.280 --> 00:56:29.579
 it is

00:56:29.579 --> 00:56:29.960
 something

00:56:29.960 --> 00:56:30.500
 that God

00:56:30.500 --> 00:56:31.220
 graciously

00:56:31.220 --> 00:56:31.800
 gives

00:56:31.800 --> 00:56:33.160
 what do

00:56:33.160 --> 00:56:34.019
 we deserve

00:56:34.019 --> 00:56:34.940
 in our

00:56:34.940 --> 00:56:35.380
 life

00:56:35.380 --> 00:56:37.039
 when we

00:56:37.039 --> 00:56:37.460
 read a

00:56:37.460 --> 00:56:38.079
 text like

00:56:38.079 --> 00:56:39.000
 Romans 6

00:56:39.000 --> 00:56:39.860
 verse 23

00:56:39.860 --> 00:56:40.800
 it tells us

00:56:40.800 --> 00:56:41.539
 what we

00:56:41.539 --> 00:56:42.260
 deserve

00:56:42.260 --> 00:56:42.960
 for the

00:56:42.960 --> 00:56:43.580
 wages of

00:56:43.580 --> 00:56:44.039
 sin

00:56:44.039 --> 00:56:45.120
 is death

00:56:45.120 --> 00:56:46.539
 that is

00:56:46.539 --> 00:56:46.980
 what we

00:56:46.980 --> 00:56:47.460
 deserve

00:56:47.460 --> 00:56:47.800
 that is

00:56:47.800 --> 00:56:48.160
 what our

00:56:48.160 --> 00:56:48.620
 sin

00:56:48.620 --> 00:56:49.740
 deserves

00:56:49.740 --> 00:56:51.200
 but that

00:56:51.200 --> 00:56:51.840
 verse goes

00:56:51.840 --> 00:56:52.539
 on to say

00:56:52.539 --> 00:56:52.840
 but the

00:56:52.840 --> 00:56:53.600
 free gift

00:56:53.600 --> 00:56:54.260
 of God

00:56:54.260 --> 00:56:55.380
 is eternal

00:56:55.380 --> 00:56:56.180
 life in

00:56:56.180 --> 00:56:56.620
 Christ

00:56:56.620 --> 00:56:57.480
 Jesus

00:56:57.480 --> 00:56:58.320
 our

00:56:58.320 --> 00:56:58.760
 Lord

00:56:58.760 --> 00:57:01.200
 that is

00:57:01.200 --> 00:57:01.700
 the mercy

00:57:01.700 --> 00:57:02.820
 that we

00:57:02.820 --> 00:57:03.200
 need

00:57:03.200 --> 00:57:04.480
 and where

00:57:04.480 --> 00:57:04.860
 can we

00:57:04.860 --> 00:57:05.580
 find that

00:57:05.580 --> 00:57:05.940
 mercy

00:57:05.940 --> 00:57:06.400
 today

00:57:06.400 --> 00:57:08.180
 well the

00:57:08.180 --> 00:57:08.660
 supreme

00:57:08.660 --> 00:57:09.460
 display of

00:57:09.460 --> 00:57:10.059
 that mercy

00:57:10.059 --> 00:57:10.420
 is at

00:57:10.420 --> 00:57:11.119
 the cross

00:57:11.119 --> 00:57:12.720
 at the

00:57:12.720 --> 00:57:13.180
 cross

00:57:13.180 --> 00:57:14.700
 of Christ

00:57:14.700 --> 00:57:16.599
 there we

00:57:16.599 --> 00:57:17.039
 see

00:57:17.039 --> 00:57:17.980
 mercy

00:57:17.980 --> 00:57:19.340
 mercy

00:57:19.340 --> 00:57:19.559
 that we

00:57:19.559 --> 00:57:20.019
 don't just

00:57:20.019 --> 00:57:21.220
 hear about

00:57:21.220 --> 00:57:23.360
 God did

00:57:23.360 --> 00:57:23.760
 not just

00:57:23.760 --> 00:57:24.599
 talk about

00:57:24.599 --> 00:57:25.119
 forgiving

00:57:25.119 --> 00:57:25.800
 our sin

00:57:25.800 --> 00:57:26.900
 or healing

00:57:26.900 --> 00:57:27.420
 a broken

00:57:27.420 --> 00:57:28.079
 people

00:57:28.079 --> 00:57:28.860
 he did

00:57:28.860 --> 00:57:29.260
 it

00:57:29.260 --> 00:57:30.780
 his

00:57:30.780 --> 00:57:31.260
 mercy

00:57:31.260 --> 00:57:32.380
 is seen

00:57:32.380 --> 00:57:33.639
 in Christ

00:57:33.639 --> 00:57:36.460
 and do

00:57:36.460 --> 00:57:36.980
 you know

00:57:36.980 --> 00:57:37.679
 this

00:57:37.679 --> 00:57:38.119
 mercy

00:57:38.119 --> 00:57:40.079
 have you

00:57:40.079 --> 00:57:40.579
 come

00:57:40.579 --> 00:57:41.500
 pleading

00:57:41.500 --> 00:57:42.579
 for this

00:57:42.579 --> 00:57:43.019
 mercy

00:57:43.019 --> 00:57:43.799
 in wrath

00:57:43.799 --> 00:57:45.000
 remember

00:57:45.000 --> 00:57:45.619
 mercy

00:57:45.619 --> 00:57:46.920
 I know

00:57:46.920 --> 00:57:47.639
 my sin

00:57:47.639 --> 00:57:48.420
 deserve

00:57:48.420 --> 00:57:49.199
 your

00:57:49.199 --> 00:57:49.799
 justice

00:57:49.799 --> 00:57:50.359
 Lord

00:57:50.359 --> 00:57:52.339
 but remember

00:57:52.339 --> 00:57:53.059
 your mercy

00:57:53.059 --> 00:57:55.059
 there's two

00:57:55.059 --> 00:57:55.619
 wonderful

00:57:55.619 --> 00:57:56.299
 examples

00:57:56.299 --> 00:57:56.900
 for us

00:57:56.900 --> 00:57:57.139
 in the

00:57:57.139 --> 00:57:57.859
 New Testament

00:57:57.859 --> 00:57:59.440
 one is

00:57:59.440 --> 00:58:00.460
 the tax

00:58:00.460 --> 00:58:00.960
 collector

00:58:00.960 --> 00:58:01.420
 who went

00:58:01.420 --> 00:58:01.900
 up to the

00:58:01.900 --> 00:58:02.299
 temple

00:58:02.299 --> 00:58:02.940
 to pray

00:58:02.940 --> 00:58:04.280
 what did

00:58:04.280 --> 00:58:04.840
 he cry

00:58:04.840 --> 00:58:05.559
 to God

00:58:05.559 --> 00:58:06.559
 even as

00:58:06.559 --> 00:58:06.780
 he was

00:58:06.780 --> 00:58:07.039
 hearing

00:58:07.039 --> 00:58:07.480
 another

00:58:07.480 --> 00:58:08.179
 who was

00:58:08.179 --> 00:58:09.019
 so boastful

00:58:09.019 --> 00:58:09.760
 beside him

00:58:09.760 --> 00:58:10.099
 praying

00:58:10.099 --> 00:58:10.659
 his prayer

00:58:10.659 --> 00:58:11.420
 was simple

00:58:11.420 --> 00:58:12.519
 God

00:58:12.519 --> 00:58:13.380
 be merciful

00:58:13.380 --> 00:58:14.340
 to me

00:58:14.340 --> 00:58:15.260
 a sinner

00:58:15.260 --> 00:58:17.619
 another

00:58:17.619 --> 00:58:18.240
 example

00:58:18.240 --> 00:58:18.480
 is

00:58:18.480 --> 00:58:19.340
 Bartimaeus

00:58:19.340 --> 00:58:20.639
 blind

00:58:20.639 --> 00:58:21.480
 Bartimaeus

00:58:21.480 --> 00:58:21.920
 who people

00:58:21.920 --> 00:58:22.420
 just looked

00:58:22.420 --> 00:58:23.320
 down upon

00:58:23.320 --> 00:58:24.179
 what did

00:58:24.179 --> 00:58:24.700
 he cry

00:58:24.700 --> 00:58:25.059
 out

00:58:25.059 --> 00:58:25.740
 he said

00:58:25.740 --> 00:58:26.240
 Jesus

00:58:26.240 --> 00:58:27.340
 son of

00:58:27.340 --> 00:58:27.800
 David

00:58:27.800 --> 00:58:28.460
 have

00:58:28.460 --> 00:58:29.000
 mercy

00:58:29.000 --> 00:58:29.920
 on me

00:58:29.920 --> 00:58:32.240
 two

00:58:32.240 --> 00:58:32.880
 simple

00:58:32.880 --> 00:58:33.539
 prayers

00:58:33.539 --> 00:58:34.940
 and yet

00:58:34.940 --> 00:58:35.260
 two

00:58:35.260 --> 00:58:36.139
 powerful

00:58:36.139 --> 00:58:36.880
 prayers

00:58:36.880 --> 00:58:38.260
 be

00:58:38.260 --> 00:58:38.760
 merciful

00:58:38.760 --> 00:58:39.400
 to me

00:58:39.400 --> 00:58:39.900
 a sinner

00:58:39.900 --> 00:58:40.860
 have

00:58:40.860 --> 00:58:41.400
 mercy

00:58:41.400 --> 00:58:42.519
 on me

00:58:42.519 --> 00:58:43.940
 and the

00:58:43.940 --> 00:58:44.460
 wonderful

00:58:44.460 --> 00:58:45.380
 thing is

00:58:45.380 --> 00:58:46.659
 that God

00:58:46.659 --> 00:58:47.380
 has mercy

00:58:47.380 --> 00:58:48.380
 to give

00:58:48.380 --> 00:58:50.059
 he has

00:58:50.059 --> 00:58:50.420
 mercy

00:58:50.420 --> 00:58:51.900
 to forgive

00:58:51.900 --> 00:58:53.559
 as the hymn

00:58:53.559 --> 00:58:54.139
 says

00:58:54.139 --> 00:58:55.599
 what patience

00:58:55.599 --> 00:58:56.220
 would wait

00:58:56.220 --> 00:58:56.599
 as we

00:58:56.599 --> 00:58:57.280
 constantly

00:58:57.280 --> 00:58:57.740
 roam

00:58:57.739 --> 00:58:58.919
 what father

00:58:58.919 --> 00:58:59.699
 so tender

00:58:59.699 --> 00:59:00.479
 is calling

00:59:00.479 --> 00:59:01.139
 us home

00:59:01.139 --> 00:59:02.339
 he welcomes

00:59:02.339 --> 00:59:03.079
 the weakest

00:59:03.079 --> 00:59:03.919
 the vilest

00:59:03.919 --> 00:59:04.539
 the poor

00:59:04.539 --> 00:59:06.119
 our sins

00:59:06.119 --> 00:59:06.479
 they are

00:59:06.479 --> 00:59:06.839
 many

00:59:06.839 --> 00:59:08.099
 his mercy

00:59:08.099 --> 00:59:09.179
 is more

00:59:09.179 --> 00:59:10.639
 what riches

00:59:10.639 --> 00:59:11.359
 of kindness

00:59:11.359 --> 00:59:12.179
 he lavished

00:59:12.179 --> 00:59:12.719
 on us

00:59:12.719 --> 00:59:13.759
 his blood

00:59:13.759 --> 00:59:14.539
 was a payment

00:59:14.539 --> 00:59:15.299
 his life

00:59:15.299 --> 00:59:16.199
 was the cost

00:59:16.199 --> 00:59:17.219
 we stood

00:59:17.219 --> 00:59:17.959
 neath the dead

00:59:17.959 --> 00:59:18.799
 we could

00:59:18.799 --> 00:59:19.879
 never afford

00:59:19.879 --> 00:59:21.519
 our sins

00:59:21.519 --> 00:59:21.919
 they are

00:59:21.919 --> 00:59:22.319
 many

00:59:22.319 --> 00:59:23.719
 his mercy

00:59:23.719 --> 00:59:25.000
 is more

00:59:25.000 --> 00:59:27.460
 our sins

00:59:27.460 --> 00:59:28.659
 are many

00:59:28.659 --> 00:59:29.739
 and they

00:59:29.739 --> 00:59:30.519
 deserve

00:59:30.519 --> 00:59:31.559
 the wrath

00:59:31.559 --> 00:59:32.260
 of God

00:59:32.260 --> 00:59:33.659
 but praise

00:59:33.659 --> 00:59:34.139
 God

00:59:34.139 --> 00:59:35.340
 his mercy

00:59:35.340 --> 00:59:36.460
 is more

00:59:36.460 --> 00:59:38.179
 and perhaps

00:59:38.179 --> 00:59:38.920
 our vision

00:59:38.920 --> 00:59:39.559
 is short

00:59:39.559 --> 00:59:40.159
 sighted

00:59:40.159 --> 00:59:40.559
 today

00:59:40.559 --> 00:59:40.900
 in the

00:59:40.900 --> 00:59:41.400
 here and

00:59:41.400 --> 00:59:41.719
 now

00:59:41.719 --> 00:59:43.119
 we look

00:59:43.119 --> 00:59:43.840
 around us

00:59:43.840 --> 00:59:44.159
 and all

00:59:44.159 --> 00:59:44.780
 around us

00:59:44.780 --> 00:59:45.119
 is a

00:59:45.119 --> 00:59:45.719
 blindness

00:59:45.719 --> 00:59:46.579
 of a

00:59:46.579 --> 00:59:46.920
 people

00:59:46.920 --> 00:59:47.199
 who are

00:59:47.199 --> 00:59:47.880
 blinded

00:59:47.880 --> 00:59:48.260
 by the

00:59:48.260 --> 00:59:48.739
 God

00:59:48.739 --> 00:59:49.679
 of this

00:59:49.679 --> 00:59:50.119
 world

00:59:50.119 --> 00:59:51.759
 but let

00:59:51.759 --> 00:59:52.659
 us approach

00:59:52.659 --> 00:59:53.299
 a great

00:59:53.299 --> 00:59:53.759
 God

00:59:53.759 --> 00:59:55.460
 a God

00:59:55.460 --> 00:59:56.000
 who is

00:59:56.000 --> 00:59:56.519
 able

00:59:56.519 --> 00:59:57.639
 and to

00:59:57.639 --> 00:59:58.679
 come boldly

00:59:58.679 --> 00:59:59.779
 that we

00:59:59.779 --> 01:00:00.279
 might know

01:00:00.279 --> 01:00:01.039
 the blessing

01:00:01.039 --> 01:00:01.779
 of God

01:00:01.779 --> 01:00:03.019
 reviving

01:00:03.019 --> 01:00:04.019
 his work

01:00:04.019 --> 01:00:04.519
 in our

01:00:04.519 --> 01:00:05.119
 midst

01:00:05.119 --> 01:00:06.779
 a work

01:00:06.779 --> 01:00:07.779
 that brings

01:00:07.779 --> 01:00:08.400
 life

01:00:08.400 --> 01:00:09.259
 to the

01:00:09.259 --> 01:00:09.619
 dead

01:00:09.619 --> 01:00:11.559
 a revival

01:00:11.559 --> 01:00:12.639
 not just

01:00:12.639 --> 01:00:13.319
 that fills

01:00:13.319 --> 01:00:14.179
 our praise

01:00:14.179 --> 01:00:14.599
 and our

01:00:14.599 --> 01:00:15.279
 prayers

01:00:15.279 --> 01:00:17.559
 that brings

01:00:17.559 --> 01:00:18.440
 people

01:00:18.440 --> 01:00:19.320
 to be

01:00:19.320 --> 01:00:20.300
 born again

01:00:20.300 --> 01:00:21.240
 to a

01:00:21.240 --> 01:00:22.039
 living hope

01:00:22.039 --> 01:00:23.340
 in Christ

01:00:23.340 --> 01:00:25.220
 and that

01:00:25.220 --> 01:00:25.500
 we would

01:00:25.500 --> 01:00:25.880
 know

01:00:25.880 --> 01:00:27.119
 his mercy

01:00:27.119 --> 01:00:28.460
 not as

01:00:28.460 --> 01:00:29.139
 our sin

01:00:29.139 --> 01:00:30.119
 deserves

01:00:30.119 --> 01:00:31.619
 but that

01:00:31.619 --> 01:00:32.300
 in wrath

01:00:32.300 --> 01:00:33.519
 he would

01:00:33.519 --> 01:00:34.220
 remember

01:00:34.220 --> 01:00:35.019
 mercy

01:00:35.019 --> 01:00:36.420
 and that

01:00:36.420 --> 01:00:37.099
 goodness

01:00:37.099 --> 01:00:38.280
 and mercy

01:00:38.280 --> 01:00:39.539
 would follow

01:00:39.539 --> 01:00:40.079
 us

01:00:40.079 --> 01:00:41.340
 all of our

01:00:41.340 --> 01:00:41.820
 days

01:00:41.820 --> 01:00:42.700
 let us

01:00:42.700 --> 01:00:43.000
 pray

01:00:43.000 --> 01:00:46.380
 our

01:00:46.380 --> 01:00:46.900
 gracious

01:00:46.900 --> 01:00:47.619
 Lord in

01:00:47.619 --> 01:00:47.860
 heaven

01:00:47.860 --> 01:00:48.220
 we do

01:00:48.220 --> 01:00:48.800
 thank you

01:00:48.800 --> 01:00:49.300
 for every

01:00:49.300 --> 01:00:49.680
 way

01:00:49.680 --> 01:00:50.400
 that you

01:00:50.400 --> 01:00:50.900
 remember

01:00:50.900 --> 01:00:51.280
 us

01:00:51.280 --> 01:00:51.960
 you know

01:00:51.960 --> 01:00:52.860
 our sins

01:00:52.860 --> 01:00:53.220
 they are

01:00:53.220 --> 01:00:53.940
 laid before

01:00:53.940 --> 01:00:54.200
 you

01:00:54.200 --> 01:00:55.000
 you know

01:00:55.000 --> 01:00:55.340
 that they

01:00:55.340 --> 01:00:55.820
 are many

01:00:55.820 --> 01:00:56.980
 but we

01:00:56.980 --> 01:00:57.460
 thank you

01:00:57.460 --> 01:00:57.840
 that your

01:00:57.840 --> 01:00:58.519
 mercy is

01:00:58.519 --> 01:00:58.840
 more

01:00:58.840 --> 01:00:59.880
 and we

01:00:59.880 --> 01:01:00.519
 pray Lord

01:01:00.519 --> 01:01:01.579
 that today

01:01:01.579 --> 01:01:02.620
 and in

01:01:02.620 --> 01:01:03.340
 our years

01:01:03.340 --> 01:01:03.740
 and our

01:01:03.740 --> 01:01:04.200
 days

01:01:04.200 --> 01:01:05.099
 Lord that

01:01:05.099 --> 01:01:05.380
 you would

01:01:05.380 --> 01:01:05.920
 remember

01:01:05.920 --> 01:01:07.120
 remember

01:01:07.120 --> 01:01:07.740
 our needs

01:01:07.740 --> 01:01:08.120
 that you

01:01:08.120 --> 01:01:08.880
 would revive

01:01:08.880 --> 01:01:10.039
 your work

01:01:10.039 --> 01:01:10.360
 in our

01:01:10.360 --> 01:01:10.760
 midst

01:01:10.760 --> 01:01:11.579
 that you

01:01:11.579 --> 01:01:12.140
 would revive

01:01:12.140 --> 01:01:12.539
 it in a

01:01:12.539 --> 01:01:13.539
 way that

01:01:13.539 --> 01:01:14.120
 it is made

01:01:14.120 --> 01:01:14.539
 known

01:01:14.539 --> 01:01:15.539
 and that in

01:01:15.539 --> 01:01:15.900
 wrath

01:01:15.900 --> 01:01:16.720
 you would

01:01:16.720 --> 01:01:17.240
 remember

01:01:17.239 --> 01:01:17.759
 mercy

01:01:17.759 --> 01:01:18.819
 we thank

01:01:18.819 --> 01:01:19.259
 you for

01:01:19.259 --> 01:01:19.579
 it as

01:01:19.579 --> 01:01:20.119
 we see

01:01:20.119 --> 01:01:20.879
 it at

01:01:20.879 --> 01:01:21.500
 the cross

01:01:21.500 --> 01:01:21.919
 as we

01:01:21.919 --> 01:01:22.379
 see it

01:01:22.379 --> 01:01:23.059
 in Christ

01:01:23.059 --> 01:01:23.579
 who took

01:01:23.579 --> 01:01:24.139
