When I say God is good, you 0:00:20.000 --> 0:00:23.400 say all the time, and then I say all the time, 0:00:23.440 --> 0:00:30.440 and you say God is good all the time. Grab 0:00:30.520 --> 0:00:32.840 the hand of the person next to you. Father, thank 0:00:32.880 --> 0:00:36.600 you for this moment, a holy moment, a sanctified moment, 0:00:37.560 --> 0:00:41.479 a set apart moment, a special moment, a moment that 0:00:41.479 --> 0:00:46.160 we'll never see again. Thank you for this day. Thank 0:00:46.159 --> 0:00:52.360 you for the sunrise. Thank you for that breath. Thank 0:00:52.400 --> 0:00:56.040 you for the person whose hand I'm holding. Thank you 0:00:56.120 --> 0:00:59.720 for bringing them through and bringing them here. Thank you 0:00:59.720 --> 0:01:02.680 for what you brought them out of. Thank you for 0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:06.759 what you're leading them into. I ask for the person 0:01:06.800 --> 0:01:08.480 that's on my right and on my left today that 0:01:08.520 --> 0:01:10.600 you would give them the kind of confidence that comes 0:01:10.600 --> 0:01:14.600 from knowing that they will never take a step that 0:01:14.680 --> 0:01:18.240 you haven't already gone before them. I thank you that 0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:22.240 you are the God who goes before us when we 0:01:22.240 --> 0:01:23.840 feel like falling. I thank you that you are the 0:01:23.880 --> 0:01:28.040 God who catches us a firm foundation beneath our feet. 0:01:30.400 --> 0:01:35.800 And when we sometimes forget how big you are, I 0:01:35.840 --> 0:01:37.240 want to thank you that you are the God who 0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:41.240 is above us, and your ways are higher than our ways. 0:01:42.000 --> 0:01:45.600 Your thoughts are higher than our thoughts. As the rain 0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:47.800 falls from the heaven and waters the earth and doesn't 0:01:47.800 --> 0:01:49.960 return to it without accomplishing that which it was sent 0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:53.520 to do, so shall your word be that comes forth 0:01:53.560 --> 0:01:56.680 from your mouth today. It will not return unto your void. 0:01:57.120 --> 0:02:01.200 It never does, it can't. It must accomplish what you 0:02:01.280 --> 0:02:04.360 sent it to do. I thank you for the worship 0:02:04.520 --> 0:02:06.720 that your people have given you today. You're worthy of it. 0:02:07.920 --> 0:02:10.200 We clap our hands right now because you're worthy of it. 0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:23.560 Your worship you because you're worthy. Now repeat after me, say, 0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:29.880 and God, I thank you for this word that you 0:02:29.919 --> 0:02:36.480 are about to speak. I receive it. It's true. Amen, 0:02:37.760 --> 0:02:40.520 high five fifteen people, and stay standing for the reading 0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:43.440 of God's word. Put all of that in the chat, 0:02:43.480 --> 0:02:48.320 would you. I receive it. It's true. Put it in 0:02:48.360 --> 0:02:53.600 the chat right now, God speak. I receive it. It's true. 0:02:54.400 --> 0:03:03.440 God Speak, I receive it. It's true standing I thought 0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:08.440 I said that. Sorry about that. Just all kinds of 0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:12.960 exercise you're getting today, jumping and sitting and standing. Tell 0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:22.040 your neighbor discount says your workout. Got to the point 0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:24.600 in my life where I don't like to skip physical workouts, 0:03:24.600 --> 0:03:26.840 but I really if I had to skip either a 0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:29.440 physical workout or if I had to skip the Word 0:03:29.440 --> 0:03:32.600 of God, I would skip the physical one. Because the 0:03:32.639 --> 0:03:34.400 things that I'm battling in my life right now are 0:03:34.440 --> 0:03:38.240 not flesh and blood. There are some of us in 0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:43.720 the room who are wrestling against principalities and spirits of discouragement, 0:03:43.800 --> 0:03:47.360 spirits of despair. And you never know what news you're 0:03:47.400 --> 0:03:49.520 gonna get when you leave this place. But I promise 0:03:49.560 --> 0:03:52.920 you God's got good news for you today. That's what 0:03:52.960 --> 0:04:00.160 gospel means. It means good news that we were dead 0:03:59.760 --> 0:04:04.080 and alive in Christ, that Jesus Christ is King of 0:04:04.160 --> 0:04:06.040 kings and Lord of lords, and he has come to 0:04:06.080 --> 0:04:09.120 bind up the broken hearted, to set the captive free, 0:04:09.680 --> 0:04:13.480 and to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor. Somebody shout, 0:04:13.560 --> 0:04:18.039 this is my year. I don't know what the first 0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:20.200 four months were like, but tell them these next eight 0:04:21.720 --> 0:04:27.440 these next eight are going to be great. Praise the Lord. 0:04:29.200 --> 0:04:32.000 Praise the Lord. I want to share with you today 0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:37.040 from a passage of scripture that I mentioned last week. 0:04:38.360 --> 0:04:41.680 When I mentioned it last week, I knew immediately that 0:04:41.760 --> 0:04:45.920 this is where we would start today because something very 0:04:45.960 --> 0:04:48.839 special happened in the moment that I read Galatians six'. 0:04:49.040 --> 0:04:53.560 Nine and this may be a scripture that you want to. 0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:57.039 Memorize you may need to quote this one back to the, 0:04:57.080 --> 0:04:59.960 devil and you may need to quote it to your, 0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:02.760 yourself or you may need to give it to a 0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:06.560 friend who's fighting. Cancer BUT i really love this, verse 0:05:07.360 --> 0:05:11.040 And i'm gonna share with you today From galatian six to. 0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:14.000 Nine at least that's where we'll.

Things AND i know you 0:06:47.279 --> 0:06:51.080 don't know who to talk to because you don't know 0:06:51.120 --> 0:06:56.719 who you can.

Don't all you've got to do is 0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:26.680 don't see how that big to do list you came 0:07:26.720 --> 0:07:30.360 to church with just got. Smaller all you've got to 0:07:30.440 --> 0:07:36.720 do is.

Better abby came downstairs after sleeping till 0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:08.000 noon yesterday AND i, said how are? You good? Morning she, 0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:13.040 Said i'm. Tired, now why are you? Tired you went 0:08:13.080 --> 0:08:15.840 to bed at ten, pm you woke up at twelve. 0:08:15.920 --> 0:08:22.120 Pm fourteen hours is sufficient. REST i get. It there 0:08:22.160 --> 0:08:25.360 have been times in my life WHERE i went on, 0:08:25.440 --> 0:08:29.240 vacation came back and needed a vacation for recovery from the. 0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:34.600 Vacation and really it's your expectations of vacations that mess you, 0:08:34.720 --> 0:08:38.000 up because you, think, like, oh IF i can just 0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:42.160 make it to this, beach IF i can just make 0:08:42.200 --> 0:08:48.080 it to these. Mountains but every single thing that you 0:08:48.160 --> 0:08:49.880 had with you in the valley goes with you to the, 0:08:49.880 --> 0:08:54.440 mountain and every single mountain that you have in your 0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:59.160 life goes with you to the. Beach so In galatians chapter, 0:08:59.240 --> 0:09:03.360 six verse, nine The Great Apostle, paul speaking to the 0:09:03.440 --> 0:09:07.480 church in modern Day, turkey is giving an encouragement to 0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:10.840 Some christians who are being tempted to go back to 0:09:10.920 --> 0:09:13.760 an old way of life And. Judaism, now these Particular 0:09:14.040 --> 0:09:18.280 christians are Gentile, christians so they're not familiar With jewish. 0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:22.560 Customs and one of the customs that The jewish believers 0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:27.160 wanted to put on their gentile counterparts was this custom called, 0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:30.800 circumcision and they were, saying if you really want to Follow, 0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:33.960 christ you need to be. Circumcised And paul, said, no 0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:36.960 you don't turn to your neighbor and, say, no you 0:09:36.960 --> 0:09:42.240 don't half the rules that people tell you about being 0:09:42.280 --> 0:09:44.520 A christian that you have to do this and you 0:09:44.600 --> 0:09:48.440 have to do. That no you. Don't somebody told ME 0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:50.680 i want to come to, elevation BUT i heard you 0:09:50.760 --> 0:09:55.760 have to dress. Up that was, like you have to. 0:09:55.880 --> 0:10:02.720 Dress that's the dress code at. Elevation do just do 0:10:03.960 --> 0:10:07.920 dress and that's. IT a lot of the things that 0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:09.880 you think you need to enter in the presence Of, 0:10:09.880 --> 0:10:15.000 god no you. Don't you just need the name Of, 0:10:15.080 --> 0:10:20.920 jesus the blood Of, jesus and an open. Heart so 0:10:20.960 --> 0:10:22.720 if you think you need to have a perfect week 0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:26.800 before you can pray To, god no you don't tell your. 0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:30.400 Neighbor no you. Don't in, fact if there's somebody here 0:10:30.400 --> 0:10:32.400 today and you're thinking about becoming a follower Of christ 0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:33.880 and you think you need to clean up your life 0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:36.679 to come to, him much like these people In galatia 0:10:36.720 --> 0:10:39.079 might have thought they needed to be circumcised externally in 0:10:39.160 --> 0:10:41.000 order to come To. Christ if you think you need 0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:43.480 to make an outward behavior modification before you can have 0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:48.440 an inward renewal or. Change, no you. Don't in, fact 0:10:48.440 --> 0:10:52.480 if the sun, sets you're. Free you're. Free, Indeed and 0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:57.120 sometimes what wears us out and exhausts us is. Expectations 0:10:59.200 --> 0:11:00.800 The lord spoke that me one. Time NOW i want 0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:03.240 to tell you this in the most personal way, possible 0:11:03.240 --> 0:11:07.760 but not share any inappropriate. Details there was a moment 0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:11.440 in my ministry WHERE i felt very close to What 0:11:11.480 --> 0:11:14.640 i've heard called. Burnout and it's been several years, ago 0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:18.320 but it was intense enough THAT i was telling The 0:11:18.360 --> 0:11:20.400 lord things LIKE i can't do, THIS i can't go, 0:11:20.480 --> 0:11:24.080 on AND i don't have what it. Takes and in 0:11:24.120 --> 0:11:27.480 the process of that being, cyclical not just once on 0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:31.280 A wednesday for a hard, meeting but week after week 0:11:31.320 --> 0:11:35.960 after week after. Week the chronic urge to quit is 0:11:36.000 --> 0:11:42.080 a signal that something needs to. Shift the chronic urge 0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:46.240 to quit not the, passing fleeting urge to, quit but 0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:51.040 the chronic urge to quit is a signal that something 0:11:51.600 --> 0:11:56.160 needs to. Shift and in my particular, CASE i felt 0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:58.680 like all of the work that was on, me combined 0:11:58.760 --> 0:12:01.040 with the work of raising family and you're, like, no 0:12:01.160 --> 0:12:04.200 raising a family isn't. Work raising a family is a. 0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:08.000 Reward children are a blessing from The, lord and they. 0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:13.640 Are but have you ever had your quiver full quiver 0:12:13.720 --> 0:12:18.160 full with sharp objects called. ARROWS a full quiver hurts 0:12:18.160 --> 0:12:20.800 sometimes you want to quit fill in that quiver. Sometimes 0:12:22.000 --> 0:12:25.840 but AS i was processing all of that in my 0:12:25.880 --> 0:12:28.040 heart and in my, prayers The lord showed me something very, 0:12:28.040 --> 0:12:32.240 powerful AND i think that it will help you. Today he, 0:12:32.320 --> 0:12:37.360 said you keep thinking that the problem is that the 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:40.760 work is too great for, you and you assume that 0:12:40.800 --> 0:12:43.560 you are weary because of the work THAT i gave, 0:12:43.600 --> 0:12:45.840 you the work of being a, dad the work of 0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:47.720 being a, husband the work of being a, pastor the 0:12:47.760 --> 0:12:49.920 work of leading a, church and all of the. Work 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:53.040 the travel was intense at that point in, Time the 0:12:53.200 --> 0:12:56.760 organizational life cycle was at a very immature stage of, 0:12:56.760 --> 0:12:59.880 development and it was moving through some. Transitions And he's, 0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:03.199 said you think that the reason you're, Weary paul, said 0:13:03.400 --> 0:13:07.760 let us not grow weary of doing. Good you think 0:13:07.800 --> 0:13:12.000 that the reason you're weary is because of the. Work 0:13:12.400 --> 0:13:15.840 but the reason you're weary is not because of the. 0:13:15.880 --> 0:13:23.520 Work it's because of your worry about the. Work AND 0:13:23.559 --> 0:13:26.160 i started to see that it was not WHAT i 0:13:26.400 --> 0:13:31.520 was doing For god that was wearing me. Out it 0:13:31.679 --> 0:13:36.080 was WHAT i was doing For god That god never 0:13:36.120 --> 0:13:39.600 asked me to do to begin, with that was wearing me. 0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:43.920 Out does this sermon feel like a lifeline to anybody 0:13:44.000 --> 0:13:49.640 in the room? Today so when he, says let us 0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:53.520 not grow weary of doing, good for in due season 0:13:53.880 --> 0:13:56.520 we will reap if we do not give, up we 0:13:56.640 --> 0:13:59.720 have to start by asking the, question why AM i? 0:14:00.679 --> 0:14:03.240 Weary and this is not intended for those of you 0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:05.760 who are visiting a relative at the nursing home every 0:14:05.840 --> 0:14:08.640 day right, now or you are in a custody battle 0:14:08.640 --> 0:14:10.800 that is sucking all of your. Resources although there is 0:14:10.840 --> 0:14:13.320 a word for you, TODAY i am not telling you 0:14:13.360 --> 0:14:15.120 that if you would simply turn it, over it would 0:14:15.200 --> 0:14:18.320 no longer be. HARD i am saying that you would 0:14:18.360 --> 0:14:23.440 be able to handle much more weight if you would 0:14:23.560 --> 0:14:28.200 change the way you do the. Work for The bible 0:14:28.280 --> 0:14:33.080 says let us not grow weary in doing good and 0:14:33.720 --> 0:14:36.480 don't grow weary is kind of one of those things 0:14:36.520 --> 0:14:40.600 that people say that sounds good until you really think about. 0:14:40.640 --> 0:14:44.680 It how AM i supposed to don't grow weary with 0:14:44.800 --> 0:14:46.680 this schedule THAT i. Have how AM i supposed to 0:14:46.720 --> 0:14:49.280 not grow weary when it's twenty four to? Seven how 0:14:49.320 --> 0:14:52.720 AM i supposed to not grow weary when everybody is 0:14:52.760 --> 0:14:54.640 wearing me? Out it's kind of like people telling you 0:14:54.680 --> 0:14:58.800 get well soon when you're. Sick oh, gee, Thanks i'll 0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:03.560 get right on. That that sounds like a, plan and 0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:06.880 don't grow weary can kind of sound like get well 0:15:06.960 --> 0:15:11.200 soon unless you stop and realize that beneath the, injunction 0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:18.960 don't grow weary is an invitation to understand why you're. 0:15:19.000 --> 0:15:21.840 Weary and in my, case AS i begin to break 0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:25.800 down all of the, EXPECTATIONS i realized that it was 0:15:25.920 --> 0:15:34.440 expectations that were exhausting. Me expectations can be. Exhausting expectations 0:15:34.480 --> 0:15:39.080 can be, Exhausting AM i right about? It the expectations 0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:42.840 that others have of you can be. Exhausting the expectations 0:15:42.880 --> 0:15:44.560 of what it means to be a mom in this 0:15:44.680 --> 0:15:49.040 day and age can be exhausting of. You the expectation 0:15:49.320 --> 0:15:51.120 WHEN i was growing up to have your kid in 0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:53.520 sports was just to get them to the field On 0:15:53.680 --> 0:15:57.040 tuesday And thursday for their baseball. Game but now if 0:15:57.080 --> 0:15:59.600 your kid is going to be a real baseball. Player 0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:02.160 you've got to sign them up for A TRIPLE a 0:16:02.280 --> 0:16:06.360 team when they're seven years. Old oh, no you will 0:16:06.400 --> 0:16:08.880 no longer have time for church On. Sunday you are 0:16:08.920 --> 0:16:11.840 going to be in travel, ball because if your kid 0:16:11.880 --> 0:16:15.560 misses one season of travel, ball they will be traumatized 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:18.440 by the fact that they didn't play travel. Ball and 0:16:18.560 --> 0:16:21.480 it feels like to me there is greater and greater 0:16:21.640 --> 0:16:26.520 expectation not only for, parents but there is greater expectation 0:16:26.680 --> 0:16:31.080 on our kids than ever before, too not just because 0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:33.640 they have to be on this team or that, team 0:16:34.040 --> 0:16:37.720 but because they are spending so much time on everybody else's. 0:16:37.800 --> 0:16:42.360 Timeline and now our kids no longer have fomo fear 0:16:42.400 --> 0:16:46.200 of missing. Out they have pomo proof of missing, out 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:49.040 because not only DO i have to think about the 0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:51.720 fact that they might be doing something without, ME i 0:16:51.800 --> 0:16:54.560 actually see the proof that they're doing something without. Me 0:16:55.120 --> 0:16:58.920 so Now i've got anxiety coupled with depression and isolation 0:16:59.400 --> 0:17:01.960 at the most vulnerable time in my, life And i'm 0:17:01.960 --> 0:17:05.320 only fourteen years, old AND i don't know how to handle. 0:17:05.400 --> 0:17:08.639 It why AM i? Tired why are kids going so 0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:11.600 crazy these? Days why does there seem to be such 0:17:11.640 --> 0:17:14.240 a surge in mental health epidemics that we keep reading 0:17:14.280 --> 0:17:19.760 about statistically that can only be fixed, spiritually because The bible, 0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:30.280 says let us not grow weary in doing. Good and 0:17:30.600 --> 0:17:32.920 what The lord gave me during that season of burnout 0:17:32.960 --> 0:17:34.800 that was very helpful to, me AND i share it 0:17:34.840 --> 0:17:36.879 with you in the offer that it can be of 0:17:37.000 --> 0:17:41.440 use IS i will give you the strength you need 0:17:42.240 --> 0:17:46.159 to do your, job BUT i will not give you 0:17:46.240 --> 0:17:53.800 the strength to do. Mine god, SAID i will give 0:17:53.840 --> 0:17:56.920 you all the strength you need to do your, job 0:17:58.160 --> 0:18:00.480 BUT i will not give you the strength to do. 0:18:00.600 --> 0:18:04.080 Mine and so this phrase comes up in the. Text it, 0:18:04.119 --> 0:18:10.280 says let us not grow weary of doing. Good doing 0:18:10.320 --> 0:18:13.480 good is an interesting phrase, too by the, way because 0:18:13.520 --> 0:18:16.000 it's never been harder to feel like you're doing good 0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:19.760 than it is right. NOW i THOUGHT i was good 0:18:19.800 --> 0:18:23.680 at playing guitar growing up because none of my other 0:18:23.720 --> 0:18:27.560 friends played, guitar so compared to, THEM i was doing. 0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:33.000 GOOD i didn't have proof in my pocket that there 0:18:33.040 --> 0:18:37.400 are nine year olds who can play guitar better than. 0:18:37.440 --> 0:18:40.639 Me at age forty, Five it's never been harder to do. 0:18:40.760 --> 0:18:43.240 Good you used to have to go to the lake 0:18:43.359 --> 0:18:45.159 to see your friend had a better boat than. You, 0:18:46.160 --> 0:18:47.880 now all you have to do is pick up your 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:51.479 same device that has Your bible lap on, it and 0:18:51.520 --> 0:18:53.600 you have to see their boat on the same device 0:18:53.640 --> 0:18:55.240 that you picked up to see Your bible when you 0:18:55.240 --> 0:18:58.120 scroll Their instagram. Account and what you don't know is 0:18:58.160 --> 0:19:02.119 that they went broke to buy the, boat and you 0:19:02.160 --> 0:19:09.320 are blind to their. Brokeness so you are discouraged by their. Boat, yeah, 0:19:10.400 --> 0:19:14.480 no wonder you're. Tired no wonder you're.

Moment The greek 0:20:36.960 --> 0:20:42.040 for this is cairo. Idio it means the appointed. Time 0:20:42.800 --> 0:20:45.560 the word chiros In greek does not mean time like 0:20:45.600 --> 0:20:49.959 a clock or a. Calendar that word is. Kronos that 0:20:50.000 --> 0:20:55.160 word is a word that challenges my, Wife. Holly holly 0:20:55.240 --> 0:21:01.240 struggles with kronos, time like what it. Is she brought 0:21:01.280 --> 0:21:04.320 me an article recently that showed me that scientifically there 0:21:04.400 --> 0:21:08.959 is a condition called time, blindness and she, Said, Babe 0:21:09.359 --> 0:21:17.720 i've figured out Why i'm always. Late but you, know 0:21:18.720 --> 0:21:23.760 worse than being blind to kronos time is being blind 0:21:24.240 --> 0:21:28.920 to chiros. Time the word for due season In galatians six' 0:21:29.040 --> 0:21:34.719 nine is. Chiros time chronos time means you showed up 0:21:34.720 --> 0:21:36.920 at eight thirty and you were supposed to be there. 0:21:37.000 --> 0:21:41.360 At eight that's.

Our life there are 0:22:04.800 --> 0:22:06.800 many here Today that god wants to speak a word 0:22:06.880 --> 0:22:08.680 to and he brought you to speak it.

Don't season and there are Some things god 0:28:58.720 --> 0:29:03.040 help me preach that can only be Learned about god 0:29:03.320 --> 0:29:07.640 in the don't SEASON when i don't, feel ENCOURAGED when 0:29:07.680 --> 0:29:12.000 i don't, feel HOPEFUL when i don't know what, to 0:29:12.120 --> 0:29:15.360 DO but i do the last thing that, he SAID 0:29:15.600 --> 0:29:19.120 when i don't doubt in the darkness what he showed 0:29:19.160 --> 0:29:22.000 me in. The light there are five hundred of you 0:29:22.400 --> 0:29:26.000 who are in adult. Season today but you did what 0:29:26.080 --> 0:29:29.560 you did when you came, to Church because god is who, 0:29:29.640 --> 0:29:32.880 he is whether he does or he doesn't do what 0:29:32.960 --> 0:29:35.400 you thought he was gonna do when you thought he 0:29:35.560 --> 0:29:41.840 was gonna, do IT or i feel it so. Somebody 0:29:41.880 --> 0:29:48.000 shall this is my season to do it when. HE 0:29:48.080 --> 0:29:57.719 doesn't I thank god for THE times i stand up 0:29:57.760 --> 0:30:00.760 to preach to YOU and i Feel like he's given 0:30:00.800 --> 0:30:03.520 me a WORD and i know what he told me. 0:30:03.600 --> 0:30:07.040 To speak those are. Wonderful times they are cotton candy 0:30:07.080 --> 0:30:10.800 and licorice and blow pops and. Jolly ranchers oh how 0:30:10.880 --> 0:30:13.240 sweet it is to Know that god spoke. To ME 0:30:13.760 --> 0:30:22.640 but i still gotta do IT when. I don't you 0:30:22.720 --> 0:30:27.680 gotta do it when. You Don't bro i'm gonna say it. 0:30:27.680 --> 0:30:34.760 Real nice forget your. Feelings stuff sewing to, the flesh 0:30:35.560 --> 0:30:41.280 sew to. The Spirit that's galatians. Six eight because if 0:30:41.320 --> 0:30:44.040 we sew to, the flesh we from the flesh. Reap 0:30:44.120 --> 0:30:48.680 corruption but if we sew to, the spirit we will 0:30:48.680 --> 0:30:52.120 from the spirit. Reap life by, the way what you 0:30:52.200 --> 0:30:55.840 sew too is where you. Reap from so whenever you're, 0:30:55.840 --> 0:30:58.560 doing good do it, two people but not, four people 0:30:59.560 --> 0:31:01.680 because if you do good, for people then you got 0:31:01.720 --> 0:31:04.440 to get good. From people but if you do Good, 0:31:04.520 --> 0:31:06.880 for god then whether people do good back to you, 0:31:07.040 --> 0:31:15.840 or not you will reap From. The SPIRIT and i 0:31:15.880 --> 0:31:18.240 wanted to tell you Something that, jesus SAID but i 0:31:18.280 --> 0:31:20.600 want to give it to you in. Three points now 0:31:20.600 --> 0:31:22.959 you're going to have something to write down today so 0:31:23.040 --> 0:31:27.480 you will have proof that you went. To church, number 0:31:27.480 --> 0:31:29.280 one the THING that i Hear the lord saying for 0:31:29.280 --> 0:31:31.640 everybody who is in a dun't season of your life 0:31:32.400 --> 0:31:39.400 is don't hold. Too tight or maybe grammatically it should, 0:31:39.440 --> 0:31:42.680 be tightly but you can either write it down how 0:31:42.720 --> 0:31:46.400 it sounds cool or how. It's correct the cool way 0:31:46.400 --> 0:31:50.440 to say it is don't hold. Too tight how many 0:31:50.520 --> 0:31:55.920 TIMES was? I worried AND so i, was WEARY and 0:31:56.000 --> 0:31:58.520 i thought it was, the work but it was. The 0:31:58.560 --> 0:32:03.080 worry galatian sixty nine says due Time is, god's Job 0:32:03.120 --> 0:32:04.680 and god will give you the strength to do, your 0:32:04.760 --> 0:32:08.760 job but Not his god to give you the strength to. 0:32:08.840 --> 0:32:12.200 Do good, he said don't grow weary of. Doing good 0:32:12.360 --> 0:32:13.880 god will give you the strength to, do Good but 0:32:13.920 --> 0:32:15.640 he will not give you the strength To. Do, god 0:32:19.640 --> 0:32:21.680 so if one enemy of cairos in, your life And 0:32:21.720 --> 0:32:24.000 when god aligns things in, your life if one enemy 0:32:24.080 --> 0:32:28.720 is comparison to somebody, else's chiros another enemy of that. 0:32:28.840 --> 0:32:34.200 Is control and if the metaphor of this is sowing, 0:32:34.240 --> 0:32:37.080 a seed if, he says let us not grow weary 0:32:37.120 --> 0:32:41.160 in doing good for. Induce season that seed will become 0:32:41.200 --> 0:32:42.960 a harvest and you will reap if you don't. Give 0:32:43.040 --> 0:32:45.120 up if that is, the metaphor then the seed is 0:32:45.160 --> 0:32:50.479 not effective. Without release and so there is an element 0:32:50.520 --> 0:32:54.160 of control of timing that we all want To put 0:32:54.200 --> 0:32:59.200 god on. Our chronos We want god to do his 0:32:59.320 --> 0:33:06.800 chiros in, Our chronos wow to do his stuff on. Our. 0:33:06.840 --> 0:33:12.040 SCHEDULE now i preach about this all the time because 0:33:12.080 --> 0:33:16.840 our deadlines kill. Our chiros and that's why, he said 0:33:16.880 --> 0:33:22.400 you you got to understand. Do season god. Does stuff 0:33:23.120 --> 0:33:27.160 how many agree? WITH that i should make a point 0:33:27.600 --> 0:33:33.080 and put that on. The screen god. Does stuff god 0:33:33.160 --> 0:33:37.560 does stuff on. His schedule how many agree? With that 0:33:39.920 --> 0:33:49.200 so it's. Due season don't hold, too tight don't strangle, 0:33:49.640 --> 0:34:01.840 a seed don't hold. Too TIGHT when i first started 0:34:01.880 --> 0:34:06.040 lifting real, heavy weights AND y'all i can lift pretty, 0:34:06.040 --> 0:34:11.719 HEAVY weights i got an injury in my ELBOWS and 0:34:11.760 --> 0:34:14.600 i Came, to chunks who was our executive pastor of, 0:34:14.640 --> 0:34:17.759 the church and he used to be a. Physical THERAPIST and, 0:34:17.800 --> 0:34:19.840 I said I guess i'm going to have to stop lifting. 0:34:19.920 --> 0:34:23.920 So heavy i'm lifting so heavy my elbows. Are hurting 0:34:25.040 --> 0:34:26.600 and he looked at me like he had seen this a. 0:34:26.680 --> 0:34:31.000 Thousand times, he goes you're not lifting. Too heavy you're 0:34:31.040 --> 0:34:40.439 not lifting. Too heavy you're gripping. Too tight, he said 0:34:40.440 --> 0:34:43.040 you're holding. Those dumbells at, THE time i was bench 0:34:43.040 --> 0:34:49.080 pressing ninety five pound dumbbells on an. Incline, bench yeah some. 0:34:49.200 --> 0:34:55.480 Heavy weight he hadn't been excited. All day i've been 0:34:55.480 --> 0:34:57.560 talking About the lord and that's the FIRST clap i 0:34:57.560 --> 0:35:01.400 got out. Of him. Right there i'll, take, it brother, 0:35:03.480 --> 0:35:05.560 He said, he said do you REMEMBER when i shared 0:35:05.600 --> 0:35:08.520 this BACK when covid. First started I'LL be. I said, 0:35:08.560 --> 0:35:12.279 he said you can lift more if you would fix. 0:35:12.320 --> 0:35:17.279 Your grip you can lift that weight if you would 0:35:17.400 --> 0:35:21.920 change the way you. Lift it and so one of 0:35:21.920 --> 0:35:23.719 the THINGS that i have to come back to again 0:35:23.760 --> 0:35:27.400 and again in my life IS am i weary because of, 0:35:27.440 --> 0:35:29.799 the work because sometimes you have to narrow?

Of 0:43:50.719 --> 0:43:55.800 doing good underline doing good for. In due season. Underline 0:43:55.840 --> 0:44:01.920 due season god's going. To do it god Does stuff. 0:44:03.400 --> 0:44:10.359 On god's schedule due season, in due season. We will 0:44:10.360 --> 0:44:17.439 reap and all you've got to do is. Don't, give 0:44:18.719 --> 0:44:26.800 up underline do not because somebody's in a. DON'T season 0:44:26.840 --> 0:44:31.319 today i don't have what IT takes and i don't know. 0:44:31.320 --> 0:44:33.879 What to do you don't have to. RAISE your hand 0:44:33.880 --> 0:44:35.480 i would not single you, out for that but you 0:44:35.560 --> 0:44:38.560 listen to me if you are in, ADULT season today 0:44:38.760 --> 0:44:42.200 i don't have what IT takes and i don't know. 0:44:42.200 --> 0:44:44.879 WHAT to do i want to Tell You an old 0:44:44.880 --> 0:44:48.959 testament story about A. King named joshuapad you can find 0:44:48.960 --> 0:44:53.720 A Story in. Second chronicles twenty there are several chapters. 0:44:53.760 --> 0:44:56.600 About his reign there are some peaks, in some valleys, 0:44:56.600 --> 0:44:59.400 some good decisions. Some bad decisions Sometimes he trusted god 0:44:59.560 --> 0:45:03.120 and sometimes when he trusted, his own flesh in. His 0:45:03.160 --> 0:45:06.600 own mind but in, THIS particular case i think he's 0:45:06.600 --> 0:45:10.080 a wonderful example for what to do in. A, dult 0:45:10.080 --> 0:45:14.359 season see he, was doing good he was. Doing really 0:45:14.400 --> 0:45:17.120 good he was A, king of judah which was, the 0:45:17.160 --> 0:45:20.879 southern kingdom and this was, a very, rebellious idolatrous nation. 0:45:21.400 --> 0:45:27.319 Much like ours. Much like ours we don't have all 0:45:27.360 --> 0:45:30.359 these same shrines, that they have but we have all 0:45:30.400 --> 0:45:34.239 of our same, priorities mixed up and we worship status and, 0:45:34.280 --> 0:45:38.120 we worship stuff and we worship people's opinions more Than 0:45:38.120 --> 0:45:41.600 we seek god's. Validation and commands so we. Relate to 0:45:41.640 --> 0:45:44.759 this and he was doing good. AS a, king i 0:45:44.800 --> 0:45:49.360 mean he went out on one Bad Run with, ahab ahab, 0:45:49.400 --> 0:45:51.440 died HE lived and i think he was sobered up 0:45:51.480 --> 0:45:53.640 by coming that. Close to death you know how when 0:45:53.640 --> 0:45:58.279 you have, a close call, when, you're, LIKE oh well 0:45:58.280 --> 0:46:00.600 i got to. Get IT together and i think that's what, 0:46:00.680 --> 0:46:03.600 happened to him because he started sending all these priests 0:46:03.719 --> 0:46:06.560 all through the kingdom to reestablish the covenant that the 0:46:06.600 --> 0:46:08.759 People had with god that he was to, be their 0:46:08.760 --> 0:46:11.799 God that, the lord said do not put any other 0:46:11.880 --> 0:46:17.040 gods beside me. Or before me. Don't do it so 0:46:17.160 --> 0:46:21.440 he was kind of sending a revival wave through the 0:46:21.520 --> 0:46:24.960 nation and in the process of all of this building 0:46:25.000 --> 0:46:27.360 a lot. Of military power but there came a battle 0:46:27.440 --> 0:46:31.560 upon him that he, was not expecting was, not prepared 0:46:31.600 --> 0:46:36.880 for and didn't know. What to do so when they 0:46:36.920 --> 0:46:39.920 came To Him in second chronicles twenty verse one and 0:46:39.960 --> 0:46:42.160 told him there, was an attacker, says after this after 0:46:42.200 --> 0:46:46.680 all the good things. He was doing, by the way 0:46:46.719 --> 0:46:49.439 we tend to assume that if things are going bad 0:46:49.480 --> 0:46:51.560 in our life that we must be Off. Track with 0:46:51.640 --> 0:46:54.560 god if things are going good, in our life then 0:46:54.600 --> 0:46:58.280 we must be On. Track with god sometimes the devil 0:46:58.320 --> 0:47:02.000 will leave you alone if You're, not following christ and 0:47:02.040 --> 0:47:04.319 you'll actually feel like you're in a good season when 0:47:04.360 --> 0:47:09.719 actually you are in a season. Of compromised, faith not 0:47:09.800 --> 0:47:14.000 always But sometimes now jehasha fat who is, doing good 0:47:14.120 --> 0:47:18.440 reforms religious. Reforms, And revival remember god corrects his, people 0:47:18.520 --> 0:47:23.200 for rebellion but The enemy attacks god's people when. They're 0:47:23.239 --> 0:47:27.080 in revival and you might be in a revival in your, 0:47:27.120 --> 0:47:30.160 life right now but the. Attack is strong, so they 0:47:30.200 --> 0:47:33.520 said they're, coming At, you The, ammonites the Moabites, even 0:47:33.560 --> 0:47:36.000 The meuites which i'd never. Heard of before so like 0:47:36.120 --> 0:47:38.480 enemies are coming, Out Of everywhere enemies i've never even 0:47:38.480 --> 0:47:40.440 heard of Before in the bible are coming. After this 0:47:40.520 --> 0:47:43.040 Guy and the bible says he was, alarmed by this 0:47:43.200 --> 0:47:45.840 he was. Surprised, by it now one of the reasons 0:47:45.840 --> 0:47:49.200 that we struggle with spiritual attacks is because we're surprised. 0:47:49.200 --> 0:47:52.640 When they happen if we could just make up our. Minds, 0:47:52.680 --> 0:47:57.160 To know then. I'm not surprised i'm not. Surprised by 0:47:57.200 --> 0:48:00.000 this i'm not surprised that the temptation. Came back strong 0:48:00.400 --> 0:48:02.840 i'm not surprised that things are. Starting to act this 0:48:02.880 --> 0:48:08.520 would be, my fourth point. Don't be surprised but his 0:48:08.640 --> 0:48:13.480 surprise drove him to a place of seeking strength And, 0:48:13.520 --> 0:48:16.960 seeking the lord and seeking Strength. From the lord so 0:48:17.040 --> 0:48:20.920 now he, begins to pray and he begins to he 0:48:21.000 --> 0:48:24.359 Begins to remind god of all that he did for 0:48:24.520 --> 0:48:26.279 his people. In the past, And, he said god you 0:48:26.400 --> 0:48:29.319 said if we would stand here and, pray to you 0:48:29.680 --> 0:48:32.200 that you would drive back your enemies. For your glory 0:48:32.520 --> 0:48:35.319 you promised this from The. Time of abraham you've been 0:48:35.320 --> 0:48:39.120 doing this. A. Long TIME god now i need you 0:48:39.200 --> 0:48:41.680 to do What. You do god and here is the 0:48:41.800 --> 0:48:45.640 Key Phrase, of second, chronicles chapter. Twenty verse, Twelve, he Said, 0:48:45.920 --> 0:48:51.600 oh our god will you? Not judge them these are 0:48:51.719 --> 0:48:54.600 enemies that are. Bigger than us these are enemies that 0:48:54.640 --> 0:48:57.560 are positioned, to kill us and they. Are close by 0:48:58.320 --> 0:49:02.879 they are already in a. Day's march away so by 0:49:02.920 --> 0:49:06.080 this time tomorrow they are going. To overtake us we 0:49:06.120 --> 0:49:09.120 do not have. Time to strategize we do not have 0:49:09.200 --> 0:49:12.080 time to build. Up for this our enemies did not 0:49:12.320 --> 0:49:16.240 ask our permission or give us advanced notice before they snuck. 0:49:16.400 --> 0:49:19.400 Up on us this season of my life did not 0:49:19.520 --> 0:49:23.560 ask my permission.
