Well, you're not alone.
00:00:24.180 --> 00:00:26.116
In hebrews chapter 11,
00:00:26.116 --> 00:00:27.550
The writer identifies 11 men and women
00:00:27.550 --> 00:00:30.286
Of faith who trusted god without reservation.
00:00:30.286 --> 00:00:34.257
And today we're going to look at two
00:00:34.257 --> 00:00:35.792
Of those individuals who trusted god

00:01:25.475 --> 00:01:31.181
During the vietnam war, a woman discovered
00:01:32.048 --> 00:01:35.752
That her husband was missing in action.
00:01:35.752 --> 00:01:40.056
For weeks, she had to live with the fact
00:01:40.924 --> 00:01:43.226
That her husband might be dead.
00:01:43.226 --> 00:01:46.996
As the weeks turned into months,
00:01:46.996 --> 00:01:49.365
She had to learn to live with the fact
00:01:49.365 --> 00:01:51.067
That her husband might be still alive.
00:01:51.067 --> 00:01:55.038
As the months turned into years,
00:01:55.038 --> 00:01:56.906
She had to realize
00:01:56.906 --> 00:01:59.409
That she would spend the rest
00:01:59.409 --> 00:02:00.577
Of her life without knowing.
00:02:00.577 --> 00:02:03.279
You know, living without knowing requires maturity,
00:02:04.280 --> 00:02:09.219
But obeying god without knowing requires faith.
00:02:10.153 --> 00:02:14.624
And that's what we're talking about
00:02:15.391 --> 00:02:17.093
In this series.
00:02:17.093 --> 00:02:18.962
Spiritual fitness,
00:02:19.395 --> 00:02:20.630
Strengthening your faith in troubled times.
00:02:20.630 --> 00:02:24.500
Faith is the necessary ingredient when we go
00:02:24.500 --> 00:02:27.971
Through challenging circumstances.
00:02:27.971 --> 00:02:31.107
When the writer of hebrews
00:02:31.107 --> 00:02:32.542
Was writing hebrews 11,
00:02:32.542 --> 00:02:34.277
He wasn't trying to compose the most eloquent
00:02:34.277 --> 00:02:36.913
Treatise on faith that has ever been written.
00:02:36.913 --> 00:02:39.949
He was addressing a real problem
00:02:39.949 --> 00:02:42.452
That was being experienced
00:02:42.452 --> 00:02:43.753
By real people in a particular time.
00:02:43.753 --> 00:02:47.123
These were jewish christians
00:02:47.123 --> 00:02:48.925
Who had come out of judaism
00:02:48.925 --> 00:02:51.127
And had just embraced the christian faith,
00:02:51.127 --> 00:02:54.197
But instead of solving all their problems,
00:02:54.197 --> 00:02:56.466
Their faith was actually causing problems.
00:02:56.466 --> 00:02:59.302
They weren't suffering from a pandemic,
00:02:59.302 --> 00:03:01.604
But they were suffering other problems.
00:03:01.604 --> 00:03:03.973
They were going through persecution,
00:03:03.973 --> 00:03:05.942
They were dealing with unanswered prayer,
00:03:05.942 --> 00:03:08.044
And they were beginning to wonder
00:03:08.044 --> 00:03:10.013
Maybe this newfound christianity isn't all
00:03:10.013 --> 00:03:12.882
That it's cracked up to be.
00:03:12.882 --> 00:03:14.550
And so they were in danger
00:03:14.550 --> 00:03:16.085
Of giving up their christian faith
00:03:16.085 --> 00:03:17.620
And going back into judaism.
00:03:17.620 --> 00:03:19.522
And in hebrews 10, the writer says,
00:03:19.522 --> 00:03:21.291
"before you do that,
00:03:21.291 --> 00:03:22.959
Don't give up your confidence in him."
00:03:22.959 --> 00:03:27.297
What is it that keeps you from letting go
00:03:27.297 --> 00:03:29.732
Of your beliefs instead of holding onto them?
00:03:29.732 --> 00:03:32.669
What is it that will keep you
00:03:32.669 --> 00:03:33.803
From buckling under life's pressures
00:03:33.803 --> 00:03:36.839
And instead enduring under those pressure?
00:03:36.839 --> 00:03:40.510
In a word, it is faith.
00:03:40.510 --> 00:03:43.346
Faith is the necessary ingredient
00:03:43.346 --> 00:03:46.749
So that problems don't shatter your faith,
00:03:46.749 --> 00:03:50.019
They strengthen your relationship with god.
00:03:50.019 --> 00:03:53.589
And that's where we've come to
00:03:53.589 --> 00:03:55.158
In our study of hebrews.
00:03:55.158 --> 00:03:56.759
What is faith?
00:03:56.759 --> 00:03:59.028
What is this faith
00:03:59.028 --> 00:04:00.330
That will strengthen us in troubled times instead
00:04:00.330 --> 00:04:03.132
Of destroying us in troubled times?
00:04:03.132 --> 00:04:05.368
Well, in the first two verses of hebrews 11,
00:04:05.368 --> 00:04:08.604
The writer defines what faith is.
00:04:08.604 --> 00:04:11.574
The best way to understand what faith is,
00:04:11.574 --> 00:04:13.943
Is to first of all understand what it isn't.
00:04:13.943 --> 00:04:17.080
Mark twain, the american humorist,
00:04:17.080 --> 00:04:19.115
Was at most an agnostic.
00:04:19.115 --> 00:04:21.651
He said, "faith is trying to believe
00:04:21.651 --> 00:04:24.587
What you know ain't so,"
00:04:24.587 --> 00:04:26.556
Or that's how an unbeliever looks at faith.
00:04:27.423 --> 00:04:29.125
But that's not how a believer looks at it.
00:04:29.125 --> 00:04:31.461
In hebrews 11:1, the writer says,
00:04:31.461 --> 00:04:33.162
"now faith is the assurance of things hoped for.
00:04:33.162 --> 00:04:38.501
It is the conviction of things not seen."
00:04:39.369 --> 00:04:42.972
That word assurance, hupostasis,
00:04:42.972 --> 00:04:45.875
Is a word that refers to a concrete foundation
00:04:45.875 --> 00:04:48.611
That holds up massive pillars
00:04:48.611 --> 00:04:51.147
That support a building.
00:04:51.147 --> 00:04:52.782
That's what faith is.
00:04:52.782 --> 00:04:53.783
It's not a hope, it's not a wish.
00:04:53.783 --> 00:04:55.318
It is the concrete assurance,
00:04:55.318 --> 00:04:58.855
But it's also a conviction
00:04:58.855 --> 00:05:00.623
That goes one step further.
00:05:00.623 --> 00:05:02.525
It's not only believing, it's believing enough
00:05:02.525 --> 00:05:04.794
To do something, acting out your faith.
00:05:04.794 --> 00:05:09.065
It's a conviction of things not seen.
00:05:09.065 --> 00:05:12.468
And remember i gave you this definition
00:05:12.468 --> 00:05:14.170
Last week of faith.
00:05:14.170 --> 00:05:15.271
Faith is believing that god will do
00:05:15.271 --> 00:05:18.307
What he has promised to do
00:05:18.307 --> 00:05:20.076
And acting accordingly.
00:05:20.076 --> 00:05:23.179
Faith always requires action.
00:05:23.179 --> 00:05:26.582
And by definition,
00:05:26.582 --> 00:05:27.950
Faith is in that which is not seen.
00:05:27.950 --> 00:05:32.121
It's in invisible things.
00:05:32.121 --> 00:05:34.524
What it takes faith to believe in is something
00:05:34.524 --> 00:05:37.193
That you can't see.
00:05:37.193 --> 00:05:39.595
And frankly, this was what the challenge was
00:05:39.595 --> 00:05:41.831
To these hebrew christians.
00:05:41.831 --> 00:05:43.499
These new christians, they said,
00:05:43.499 --> 00:05:44.934
"we're tired of believing in things
00:05:44.934 --> 00:05:46.602
That we can't see.
00:05:46.602 --> 00:05:47.804
We want to go back into judaism.
00:05:47.804 --> 00:05:49.238
We want to believe in a faith
00:05:49.238 --> 00:05:52.275
That we can touch and feel.
00:05:52.275 --> 00:05:53.743
We want a priest that we can touch.
00:05:53.743 --> 00:05:56.112
We want a temple that we can go into.
00:05:56.112 --> 00:05:59.449
We want a sacrifice that we can smell.
00:05:59.449 --> 00:06:02.452
We're tired of this invisible priest
00:06:02.452 --> 00:06:04.620
Who's in an invisible temple in heaven
00:06:04.620 --> 00:06:06.389
Who's offered this invisible sacrifice."
00:06:06.389 --> 00:06:10.460
Do you ever feel that way sometimes?
00:06:10.460 --> 00:06:12.261
But real faith requires believing
00:06:12.261 --> 00:06:14.897
In that which is invisible.
00:06:14.897 --> 00:06:17.667
And so the writer in hebrews 11 reminds
00:06:17.667 --> 00:06:20.069
These new jewish christians
00:06:20.069 --> 00:06:21.737
That the old testament was filled with examples
00:06:21.737 --> 00:06:24.540
Of people who believed in the unseen
00:06:24.540 --> 00:06:27.910
And the invisible.
00:06:27.910 --> 00:06:29.445
And he goes through example after example
00:06:29.445 --> 00:06:31.981
Of what it means to believe god
00:06:31.981 --> 00:06:33.883
And act accordingly.
00:06:33.883 --> 00:06:35.785
We looked at abel
00:06:35.785 --> 00:06:37.220
Who demonstrates a faith that saves.
00:06:37.220 --> 00:06:39.755
Abel had never seen god and yet by faith,
00:06:39.755 --> 00:06:42.592
He obeyed god and offered that better sacrifice.
00:06:42.592 --> 00:06:46.462
Or enoch demonstrates a faith
00:06:46.462 --> 00:06:48.631
That sanctifies for 300 of his 365 years.
00:06:48.631 --> 00:06:52.502
The bible says he walked with god,
00:06:52.502 --> 00:06:54.270
He obeyed god, never saw any result of it.
00:06:54.270 --> 00:06:57.240
He was living and surrounded
00:06:57.240 --> 00:06:59.375
In an ungodly culture, but he kept obeying god
00:06:59.375 --> 00:07:03.546
And until the very end, he obeyed god
00:07:03.546 --> 00:07:05.515
And god just took him to heaven,
00:07:05.515 --> 00:07:06.749
Raptured him to heaven
00:07:06.749 --> 00:07:07.917
Instead of allowing him to die.
00:07:07.917 --> 00:07:09.452
But it was because he believed
00:07:09.452 --> 00:07:10.920
That god was a rewarder of those
00:07:10.920 --> 00:07:13.122
Who diligently follow him
00:07:13.122 --> 00:07:14.957
Even though he's never seen that reward.
00:07:14.957 --> 00:07:17.727
Today we're going to come
00:07:17.727 --> 00:07:19.161
To another aspect of faith.
00:07:19.161 --> 00:07:21.264
Faith that not only saves and sanctifies,
00:07:21.264 --> 00:07:23.699
But a faith that is submissive to god's will.
00:07:23.699 --> 00:07:27.803
If you're going to obey god,
00:07:27.803 --> 00:07:30.273
You have to have faith
00:07:30.273 --> 00:07:32.074
And that which is invisible.
00:07:32.074 --> 00:07:34.277
And today we're going to look at two people
00:07:34.277 --> 00:07:36.245
Who demonstrate that kind of submissive faith.
00:07:36.245 --> 00:07:39.782
The first is abraham, who demonstrates
00:07:39.782 --> 00:07:43.252
That submissive faith walks
00:07:43.252 --> 00:07:45.688
With god even when we can't see the future.
00:07:45.688 --> 00:07:49.158
Look at verse eight of hebrews 11.
00:07:49.158 --> 00:07:51.494
By faith abraham,
00:07:51.494 --> 00:07:53.663
When he was called obeyed by going out
00:07:53.663 --> 00:07:56.699
To a place which he was to receive
00:07:56.699 --> 00:07:59.068
For an inheritance.
00:07:59.068 --> 00:08:00.536
And he went out not knowing where he was going.
00:08:00.536 --> 00:08:04.307
Abraham was to the jewish people
00:08:04.941 --> 00:08:06.976
What george washington is to americans.
00:08:06.976 --> 00:08:09.879
I mean he was the father of their country.
00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:12.448
He was the beginning of the abrahamic promise
00:08:12.448 --> 00:08:15.451
That extends through this day
00:08:15.451 --> 00:08:16.852
Until the lord returns.
00:08:16.852 --> 00:08:19.055
Abraham was a man, a faith.
00:08:19.055 --> 00:08:22.925
You know, abraham was the only person
00:08:22.925 --> 00:08:26.028
In the bible who was called "the friend of god."
00:08:26.028 --> 00:08:30.266
That's how god referred to abraham,
00:08:30.266 --> 00:08:31.601
"my friend abraham."
00:08:31.601 --> 00:08:34.904
Can you think of any greater compliment
00:08:35.738 --> 00:08:36.872
Than having god call you his friend?
00:08:36.872 --> 00:08:41.310
That was abraham, he was a friend of god
00:08:41.310 --> 00:08:43.446
And what made him a friend of god?
00:08:43.446 --> 00:08:45.581
Some people say, "well, it was his willingness
00:08:45.581 --> 00:08:47.249
To go through that painful procedure
00:08:47.249 --> 00:08:49.885
Of circumcision without any anesthetic."
00:08:49.885 --> 00:08:53.189
Other people say, "oh no,
00:08:53.189 --> 00:08:54.857
It was his willingness to give up the better land
00:08:54.857 --> 00:08:57.727
To his nephew lot to keep the piece
00:08:57.727 --> 00:08:59.462
In the family."
00:08:59.462 --> 00:09:00.763
Other people say, "well, it was his willingness
00:09:00.763 --> 00:09:02.164
To offer his son isaac as the sacrifice to god,"
00:09:02.164 --> 00:09:04.734
As we'll talk about next time.
00:09:04.734 --> 00:09:06.302
All of those things were great,
00:09:06.302 --> 00:09:07.803
But that's not what caused abraham
00:09:07.803 --> 00:09:10.573
To be called the friend of god.
00:09:10.573 --> 00:09:13.109
It was abraham's faith that made him righteous
00:09:13.109 --> 00:09:16.746
In a right relationship with god.
00:09:16.746 --> 00:09:19.582
And we see that
00:09:19.582 --> 00:09:20.716
So well illustrated in romans 4:1-8.
00:09:20.716 --> 00:09:26.055
Remember, paul is talking about the fact
00:09:26.922 --> 00:09:27.857
That we are saved by god's grace
00:09:27.857 --> 00:09:30.259
Through faith and not through our own works.
00:09:30.259 --> 00:09:32.962
And he uses abraham as the example.
00:09:32.962 --> 00:09:34.964
Look at romans 4:1.
00:09:34.964 --> 00:09:36.932
"what then shall we say about abraham,
00:09:36.932 --> 00:09:40.202
Our forefather according to the flesh?
00:09:40.202 --> 00:09:43.272
For if abraham was justified,
00:09:43.272 --> 00:09:45.608
That is declared not guilty by works,
00:09:45.608 --> 00:09:48.811
He has something to boast about,
00:09:48.811 --> 00:09:50.846
But not before god,
00:09:50.846 --> 00:09:52.581
For what does the scripture say?"
00:09:52.581 --> 00:09:54.283
And then paul quotes genesis 15:6.
00:09:54.283 --> 00:09:57.286
Abraham believed god and it was credited it.
00:09:57.286 --> 00:10:01.724
His faith was credited to him
00:10:01.724 --> 00:10:04.427
As righteousness.
00:10:04.427 --> 00:10:07.530
What made abraham the friend of god?
00:10:07.530 --> 00:10:10.666
What caused him to be declared righteous
00:10:10.666 --> 00:10:13.202
In a right standing with god
00:10:13.202 --> 00:10:14.904
Was not his works but his faith in god.
00:10:14.904 --> 00:10:19.275
His works were the result of his faith.
00:10:19.275 --> 00:10:23.345
Paul is reminding the readers of that night
00:10:24.280 --> 00:10:27.249
That god took abraham out of his stand
00:10:27.249 --> 00:10:30.052
And said, "look up into the sky, abraham.
00:10:30.052 --> 00:10:33.022
See all the stars.
00:10:33.022 --> 00:10:34.790
So shall your descendants be."
00:10:34.790 --> 00:10:37.793
Even though abraham didn't have one child yet.
00:10:37.793 --> 00:10:40.629
The bible says abraham believed god.
00:10:41.397 --> 00:10:44.467
He believed what god said.
00:10:44.467 --> 00:10:47.002
We don't know how much he believed.
00:10:47.002 --> 00:10:48.771
He may have had a lot of faith
00:10:48.771 --> 00:10:50.239
Or he might have had the faith of a mustard seed.
00:10:50.239 --> 00:10:53.175
But the bible says with whatever amount
00:10:53.175 --> 00:10:55.444
Of faith abraham had, he believed god.
00:10:55.444 --> 00:10:59.448
And what did god do?
00:10:59.448 --> 00:11:00.349
He took that little bit of faith
00:11:00.349 --> 00:11:02.318
And in the great accounting room of heaven,
00:11:02.318 --> 00:11:04.687
He exchanged that faith for god's righteousness.
00:11:04.687 --> 00:11:09.959
How was abraham saved?
00:11:10.459 --> 00:11:11.827
He was saved by god's grace
00:11:11.827 --> 00:11:14.196
That was received through faith
00:11:14.196 --> 00:11:16.198
And would be ultimately paid for by the blood
00:11:16.198 --> 00:11:18.534
Of christ the way we're all saved.
00:11:18.534 --> 00:11:21.270
Abraham was saved by grace through faith.
00:11:21.270 --> 00:11:26.242
That's what he said here.
00:11:26.242 --> 00:11:27.076
And then in romans 4:4,
00:11:27.076 --> 00:11:28.677
"now to the one who works,
00:11:28.677 --> 00:11:30.112
His wage is not credited as a favor,
00:11:30.112 --> 00:11:32.414
But as what is due."
00:11:32.414 --> 00:11:35.618
You realize that.
00:11:35.618 --> 00:11:37.186
If you're an employee,
00:11:37.186 --> 00:11:38.454
You don't thank your employer every two weeks
00:11:38.454 --> 00:11:40.589
When you get a check.
00:11:40.589 --> 00:11:41.824
That's not a favor he's given to you.
00:11:41.824 --> 00:11:43.559
It's what he owes you.
00:11:43.559 --> 00:11:45.594
If you work for something you deserve to be paid.
00:11:45.594 --> 00:11:48.931
But look at verse five.
00:11:48.931 --> 00:11:50.065
"but to the one who does not work
00:11:50.065 --> 00:11:52.201
But believes in him, god
00:11:52.201 --> 00:11:53.736
Who justifies the ungodly,
00:11:53.736 --> 00:11:55.638
His faith is credited as righteousness."
00:11:55.638 --> 00:11:58.440
Do you know why god will not allow you
00:11:58.440 --> 00:12:00.509
To work for your salvation?
00:12:00.509 --> 00:12:02.845
Because if you are allowed to work
00:12:02.845 --> 00:12:05.414
For your salvation,
00:12:05.414 --> 00:12:06.816
Then salvation is not a gift from god.
00:12:06.816 --> 00:12:09.018
It's an obligation from god.
00:12:09.018 --> 00:12:11.287
If salvation, the forgiveness
00:12:11.921 --> 00:12:13.589
Of your sins is 99% god's grace
00:12:13.589 --> 00:12:16.225
And even 1% of your works, then again,
00:12:16.225 --> 00:12:20.062
Salvation is not a gift, it's an obligation.
00:12:20.062 --> 00:12:23.132
And god refuses to owe any man
00:12:23.132 --> 00:12:26.101
Or woman salvation.
00:12:26.101 --> 00:12:27.503
It is a free gift of god.
00:12:27.503 --> 00:12:30.506
It was for abraham.
00:12:30.506 --> 00:12:32.074
Abraham believed god
00:12:32.074 --> 00:12:33.609
And that belief was counted as righteousness.
00:12:33.609 --> 00:12:37.947
But the writer of hebrews is saying
00:12:37.947 --> 00:12:39.515
Because he was righteous, not guilty,
00:12:39.515 --> 00:12:42.551
He acted accordingly.
00:12:42.551 --> 00:12:44.420
Every good thing that abraham did sprung out
00:12:44.420 --> 00:12:47.323
Of his right relationship with god
00:12:47.323 --> 00:12:50.226
And it gave him the faith to walk
00:12:50.226 --> 00:12:52.761
With god even when he couldn't see the future.
00:12:52.761 --> 00:12:56.098
Now the story of abraham actually begins
00:12:56.098 --> 00:12:58.734
At the end of genesis 11.
00:12:58.734 --> 00:13:01.370
We won't turn there right now,
00:13:01.370 --> 00:13:03.873
But most people don't know the story
00:13:03.873 --> 00:13:06.175
Actually begins there
00:13:06.175 --> 00:13:07.142
When abraham was 60 years old.
00:13:07.142 --> 00:13:09.545
Abraham lived in ur of the chaldees,
00:13:09.545 --> 00:13:12.114
A metropolitan advanced civilization
00:13:12.114 --> 00:13:15.117
In the mesopotamian valley.
00:13:15.117 --> 00:13:16.986
He was the son of terah.
00:13:16.986 --> 00:13:18.821
Terah was the commander of nimrod's armies.
00:13:18.821 --> 00:13:21.790
The one thing they all had in common
00:13:21.790 --> 00:13:24.159
Is they all worship idols including abraham.
00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:28.097
Abraham was a worshiper of idols.
00:13:28.097 --> 00:13:30.699
You know, some people wonder
00:13:30.699 --> 00:13:31.901
Why did god choose abraham
00:13:31.901 --> 00:13:34.203
To be the father of this great nation?
00:13:34.203 --> 00:13:37.273
Maybe it was because abraham was the only
00:13:37.273 --> 00:13:39.708
Person in earth who didn't worship an idol
00:13:39.708 --> 00:13:42.411
But worshiped the true god.
00:13:42.411 --> 00:13:44.113
That'd be a nice story, but it's not true.
00:13:44.113 --> 00:13:46.048
The bible says he worship idols
00:13:46.048 --> 00:13:47.917
Just like his father, terah.
00:13:47.917 --> 00:13:49.518
The only reason god chose abraham
00:13:49.518 --> 00:13:51.820
Is the same reason he chose you.
00:13:51.820 --> 00:13:55.324
His grace, his grace and grace alone.
00:13:55.324 --> 00:13:59.228
God spoke to abraham when he was 60 years old
00:13:59.228 --> 00:14:02.564
And told him to go to a land
00:14:02.564 --> 00:14:04.967
That he would show him.
00:14:04.967 --> 00:14:06.535
You say, "mow i can read genesis 11
00:14:06.535 --> 00:14:08.971
And there's nothing about god's call to abraham
00:14:08.971 --> 00:14:11.740
And when he was in ur of the chaldees.
00:14:11.740 --> 00:14:14.109
Where do you get that pastor?"
00:14:14.109 --> 00:14:15.811
Well, it's in acts 7:2.
00:14:15.811 --> 00:14:17.980
In the new testament, paul tells us that
00:14:17.980 --> 00:14:20.516
That abraham's initial call came
00:14:20.516 --> 00:14:22.785
When he was 60 in earth.
00:14:22.785 --> 00:14:24.420
So he picks up his family
00:14:24.420 --> 00:14:25.955
And they get as far as harran
00:14:25.955 --> 00:14:27.890
And they settle down there
00:14:27.890 --> 00:14:29.124
And they spend 15 years there.
00:14:29.124 --> 00:14:32.594
And then when we come to genesis 12,
00:14:32.594 --> 00:14:34.863
God repeats and expands his call and says,
00:14:34.863 --> 00:14:37.833
"abraham, you've been here long enough.
00:14:37.833 --> 00:14:39.768
It's time for you to pack up again
00:14:39.768 --> 00:14:41.470
And go to that land that i will show you
00:14:41.470 --> 00:14:43.806
And i will make you the father of a great nation.
00:14:43.806 --> 00:14:46.175
And i will bless those who bless you
00:14:46.175 --> 00:14:47.743
And curse those who curse you.
00:14:47.743 --> 00:14:48.978
And through you, all the nations
00:14:48.978 --> 00:14:50.546
Of the world will be blessed."
00:14:50.546 --> 00:14:53.182
So what did abraham do?
00:14:53.182 --> 00:14:54.316
Look at verse four of genesis 12.
00:14:54.316 --> 00:14:56.418
So a abraham went forth
00:14:56.418 --> 00:14:58.287
As the lord had spoken to him
00:14:58.287 --> 00:15:00.255
And lot went with him.
00:15:00.255 --> 00:15:01.890
Now, abraham was 75 years old
00:15:01.890 --> 00:15:05.127
When he departed from harran.
00:15:05.127 --> 00:15:07.363
Now i don't know about you,
00:15:07.963 --> 00:15:09.064
But i don't know many 75 year olds
00:15:09.064 --> 00:15:11.667
Who are crazy about changing their life.
00:15:11.667 --> 00:15:15.270
I don't know many people
00:15:15.270 --> 00:15:16.205
Who like change of any kind,
00:15:16.205 --> 00:15:18.107
But just imagine what it is like
00:15:18.107 --> 00:15:20.642
To pick up uproot and go
00:15:20.642 --> 00:15:22.678
To a land you've never seen
00:15:22.678 --> 00:15:24.079
Before with all of your family.
00:15:24.079 --> 00:15:26.615
But abraham did that when he was 75.
00:15:26.615 --> 00:15:29.485
Look at verse five.
00:15:29.485 --> 00:15:30.753
And abraham took sarai, his wife
00:15:30.753 --> 00:15:33.322
And lot his nephew and all their possessions
00:15:33.322 --> 00:15:37.226
Which they had accumulated,
00:15:37.226 --> 00:15:39.194
And the persons which they had acquired in harran
00:15:39.194 --> 00:15:41.997
And they set out for the land of canaan.
00:15:41.997 --> 00:15:44.500
Thus they came to the land of canaan.
00:15:44.500 --> 00:15:47.136
Just think of all the stuff abraham and sarah
00:15:48.070 --> 00:15:51.607
Had accumulated in 75 years.
00:15:51.607 --> 00:15:55.144
75 years of living.
00:15:55.144 --> 00:15:58.213
I went into our garage yesterday
00:15:58.213 --> 00:16:00.482
And it is packed to the brim
00:16:00.482 --> 00:16:02.851
And it's interesting,
00:16:02.851 --> 00:16:04.286
It's kind of like geological strata
00:16:04.286 --> 00:16:07.589
In our garage.
00:16:07.589 --> 00:16:09.958
The bottom portion strategy,
00:16:09.958 --> 00:16:11.927
That's the garland years from the 1970s,
00:16:11.927 --> 00:16:15.597
And then on top of that are the eastland years,
00:16:15.597 --> 00:16:18.100
And then the 15 years
00:16:18.100 --> 00:16:19.668
In wichita falls above that,
00:16:19.668 --> 00:16:21.170
And then our dallas last 13 years above that.
00:16:21.170 --> 00:16:24.306
I'd hate to try to find anything in there.
00:16:24.306 --> 00:16:27.009
You can imagine all the stuff that abraham had.
00:16:27.009 --> 00:16:30.746
But he picked it up,
00:16:30.746 --> 00:16:32.014
He gathered it together and what did he do?
00:16:32.014 --> 00:16:33.882
Did he call daryl flood movers and say,
00:16:33.882 --> 00:16:35.717
"come pick up this stuff.
00:16:35.717 --> 00:16:38.053
Send it ahead to canaan."
00:16:38.053 --> 00:16:39.421
No, the bible says that they tied it to the backs
00:16:39.421 --> 00:16:42.291
Of the donkeys and every other beast they had
00:16:42.291 --> 00:16:44.960
And out they went to canaan.
00:16:44.960 --> 00:16:47.763
But the real remarkable thing
00:16:47.763 --> 00:16:49.198
About this move is not the inconvenience of it,
00:16:49.198 --> 00:16:52.367
It's the faith that it took to do that.
00:16:52.367 --> 00:16:55.704
Just think they left ur of the chaldees.
00:16:55.704 --> 00:16:58.240
They were leaving their family,
00:16:58.240 --> 00:17:00.976
They were leaving their religious traditions,
00:17:00.976 --> 00:17:03.245
They were leaving their friends,
00:17:03.245 --> 00:17:04.746
Everything familiar to them to go to a place
00:17:04.746 --> 00:17:08.684
That was unidentified at this point to them
00:17:08.684 --> 00:17:11.687
All because god said to go.
00:17:11.687 --> 00:17:14.556
Think of the loneliness
00:17:14.556 --> 00:17:15.824
That would take to leave everything you knew
00:17:15.824 --> 00:17:17.659
To a strange and distant land.
00:17:17.659 --> 00:17:19.728
When i was preparing this message this week,
00:17:19.728 --> 00:17:21.463
I couldn't help think
00:17:21.463 --> 00:17:22.965
Of the first time i left home.
00:17:22.965 --> 00:17:26.802
I was 18 years old and was leaving dallas
00:17:26.802 --> 00:17:30.806
And leaving my family
00:17:30.806 --> 00:17:32.307
And leaving the church here i had grown up in,
00:17:32.307 --> 00:17:36.011
To go 90 miles south to baylor university.
00:17:36.011 --> 00:17:40.415
And i remember that saturday so well
00:17:40.415 --> 00:17:43.585
That i went to baylor.
00:17:43.585 --> 00:17:44.920
I was already feeling a little bit blue
00:17:44.920 --> 00:17:46.922
Because my wife, my girlfriend at the time,
00:17:46.922 --> 00:17:49.625
Amy had gone on to austin
00:17:49.625 --> 00:17:52.194
To the university of texas.
00:17:52.194 --> 00:17:54.062
So i was feeling kind of lonely.
00:17:54.062 --> 00:17:55.898
And so our family decided not to just
00:17:55.898 --> 00:17:58.867
To send me by myself,
00:17:58.867 --> 00:17:59.935
But we went in a family caravan.
00:17:59.935 --> 00:18:02.738
It was not just me, it was my mother
00:18:02.738 --> 00:18:05.841
And my father, my sister sitting right out there
00:18:05.841 --> 00:18:09.478
And my brother, my grandmother and grandfather
00:18:09.478 --> 00:18:13.382
And my great-grandmother.
00:18:13.382 --> 00:18:15.083
We all got in a caravan
00:18:15.083 --> 00:18:17.286
And headed down i-35 to waco.
00:18:17.286 --> 00:18:20.556
They dropped me off in my dorm
00:18:20.556 --> 00:18:22.658
And my grandfather said,
00:18:22.658 --> 00:18:24.693
"let's all have a prayer together."
00:18:24.693 --> 00:18:26.328
So we got in a circle
00:18:26.328 --> 00:18:27.629
And he prayed for me and then he left.
00:18:27.629 --> 00:18:30.132
They left.
00:18:30.132 --> 00:18:31.533
And i'm telling you, i have never felt lonelier.
00:18:31.533 --> 00:18:35.037
I was surrounded by a lot of people.
00:18:35.037 --> 00:18:36.872
I would eventually make some great friends there,
00:18:36.872 --> 00:18:39.208
But that day i was lonely.
00:18:39.208 --> 00:18:40.943
And i remember that saturday night going down
00:18:40.943 --> 00:18:43.812
To the fifth street bridge,
00:18:43.812 --> 00:18:45.914
The bridge that spans i-35 on fifth street
00:18:45.914 --> 00:18:49.551
And i walked into the center of that bridge.
00:18:49.551 --> 00:18:51.887
I didn't jump, but i just walked to the center
00:18:51.887 --> 00:18:54.089
Of that bridge and i looked to the north
00:18:54.089 --> 00:18:56.592
And thought about my family
00:18:56.592 --> 00:18:58.093
And my friends i had left.
00:18:58.093 --> 00:19:00.362
I turned and looked
00:19:00.362 --> 00:19:01.363
Toward the south toward austin
00:19:01.363 --> 00:19:03.699
Where those pagans were holding my girlfriend amy
00:19:03.699 --> 00:19:06.268
At the university of texas.
00:19:06.268 --> 00:19:08.737
You know i was lonely.
00:19:09.238 --> 00:19:11.240
Perhaps you felt that kind of loneliness too,
00:19:11.240 --> 00:19:13.408
The loneliness of moving to a new city,
00:19:13.408 --> 00:19:16.511
Moving to a new church, moving to a new job.
00:19:16.511 --> 00:19:19.448
Even though you're surrounded by people,
00:19:19.448 --> 00:19:21.316
You feel all alone.
00:19:21.316 --> 00:19:23.452
That's what it took for abraham.
00:19:23.452 --> 00:19:25.153
Why did he do it?
00:19:25.153 --> 00:19:26.555
Let me tell you why he didn't do it.
00:19:26.555 --> 00:19:29.324
It's not because he calculated
00:19:29.324 --> 00:19:30.993
That the new land was better
00:19:30.993 --> 00:19:32.394
Than ur of the chaldees.
00:19:32.394 --> 00:19:33.895
He didn't study the housing market
00:19:33.895 --> 00:19:35.731
Or the job market or the climate or anything else
00:19:35.731 --> 00:19:39.301
And say, "i think i'd like to move there."
00:19:39.301 --> 00:19:41.069
No, he went there by faith.
00:19:41.069 --> 00:19:43.272
Look at verse nine.
00:19:43.272 --> 00:19:44.706
This gives us great insight of what happened even
00:19:44.706 --> 00:19:46.775
After he got there.
00:19:46.775 --> 00:19:47.609
By faith.
00:19:47.609 --> 00:19:49.044
Hebrews 11:9.
00:19:49.044 --> 00:19:51.113
"by faith, abraham lived
00:19:51.113 --> 00:19:53.215
As an alien in the land of promise,
00:19:53.215 --> 00:19:56.151
As in a foreign land dwelling in tents
00:19:56.151 --> 00:19:58.487
With isaac and jacob, fellow heirs
00:19:58.487 --> 00:20:00.522
Of the same promise."
00:20:00.522 --> 00:20:01.790
This is interesting.
00:20:01.790 --> 00:20:03.091
Even when he finally got to the promised land,
00:20:03.091 --> 00:20:06.194
The bible said he lived, he sojourned.
00:20:06.194 --> 00:20:09.031
That word means to live as an alien,
00:20:09.031 --> 00:20:11.933
Not a citizen.
00:20:11.933 --> 00:20:13.368
In the old testament times,
00:20:13.969 --> 00:20:16.204
An alien was one step above a slave,
00:20:16.204 --> 00:20:20.042
Had very few rights, was not really tied
00:20:20.042 --> 00:20:22.911
To the country that he went to,
00:20:22.911 --> 00:20:25.213
And that was abraham.
00:20:25.213 --> 00:20:26.248
The whole time that he
00:20:26.248 --> 00:20:27.382
And sarah would live in canaan,
00:20:27.382 --> 00:20:28.784
Did you know they never built a house?
00:20:28.784 --> 00:20:30.952
They were wealthy, but they never built a house.
00:20:30.952 --> 00:20:33.155
They lived in tents.
00:20:33.155 --> 00:20:34.856
They never bought a piece of property
00:20:34.856 --> 00:20:36.925
Except to be buried on.
00:20:36.925 --> 00:20:39.061
Why would they do that?
00:20:39.061 --> 00:20:40.362
Why would they live such detached lives?
00:20:40.362 --> 00:20:42.464
Verse 10 says, "for he, abraham was looking
00:20:42.464 --> 00:20:45.834
For the city has foundations whose architect
00:20:45.834 --> 00:20:49.538
And builder is god."
00:20:49.538 --> 00:20:52.240
Abraham was looking for a better city,
00:20:52.240 --> 00:20:54.843
A more lasting city.
00:20:54.843 --> 00:20:56.111
He was looking for that new jerusalem.
00:20:56.111 --> 00:20:58.447
He knew that's where his reward would be.
00:20:58.447 --> 00:21:01.583
Let me just say this as simply as possible.
00:21:02.484 --> 00:21:05.420
You know what it means to walk by faith?
00:21:05.420 --> 00:21:08.390
Walk by faith means taking that next step,
00:21:08.390 --> 00:21:13.061
Even when you can't see the outcome.
00:21:13.862 --> 00:21:16.631
Taking the next step you know god
00:21:17.366 --> 00:21:19.568
Wants you to take.
00:21:19.568 --> 00:21:20.869
There's some of you right now
00:21:21.503 --> 00:21:22.738
Who are living in a fog of confusion,
00:21:22.738 --> 00:21:26.541
Maybe about your profession,
00:21:26.541 --> 00:21:28.143
About your marriage, about your children.
00:21:28.143 --> 00:21:33.415
And this pandemic has even
00:21:33.982 --> 00:21:36.151
Thickened that fog.
00:21:36.151 --> 00:21:39.054
It's harder now than ever
00:21:39.054 --> 00:21:40.222
Before to see what's going to happen
00:21:40.222 --> 00:21:42.691
Three months from now, six months from now.
00:21:42.691 --> 00:21:46.695
God isn't calling you to see the future,
00:21:46.695 --> 00:21:48.764
To know what's going to happen.
00:21:48.764 --> 00:21:50.031
He's asking you to take that next step
00:21:50.031 --> 00:21:53.702
In obedience to him, walking by faith
00:21:53.702 --> 00:21:57.272
When you can't see the future.
00:21:57.272 --> 00:22:00.108
That's what abraham illustrates.
00:22:00.108 --> 00:22:03.011
His wife sarah illustrates another aspect
00:22:03.011 --> 00:22:06.782
Of submissive faith.
00:22:06.782 --> 00:22:08.316
Sometimes submitting to god's commands
00:22:08.316 --> 00:22:11.586
Means walking with god
00:22:11.586 --> 00:22:13.288
When you can't see the future.
00:22:13.288 --> 00:22:14.790
But sometimes it means waiting on god
00:22:14.790 --> 00:22:17.692
When you can't hear his voice.
00:22:17.692 --> 00:22:20.562
I remember so well in a previous church
00:22:21.396 --> 00:22:24.466
We were having a great ministry there,
00:22:24.466 --> 00:22:27.002
But the possibility of going
00:22:27.002 --> 00:22:29.204
To another church opened up.
00:22:29.204 --> 00:22:30.939
And amy and i were really considering
00:22:30.939 --> 00:22:32.741
Whether or not to go to this new church
00:22:32.741 --> 00:22:36.878
And we tried to keep it quiet,
00:22:36.878 --> 00:22:38.713
But we couldn't keep it quiet.
00:22:38.713 --> 00:22:40.882
And other people in the congregation
00:22:40.882 --> 00:22:42.784
Began knowing that we were considering leaving.
00:22:42.784 --> 00:22:46.087
And so i'll never forget a senior adult woman
00:22:46.087 --> 00:22:50.091
Very wise, she slipped me a note
00:22:50.091 --> 00:22:52.561
One day that i'll never forget.
00:22:52.561 --> 00:22:54.429
She said, "pastor, remember.
00:22:54.429 --> 00:22:56.631
Sometimes it takes more faith
00:22:56.631 --> 00:22:58.867
To stay in a place than to go to a new place."
00:22:58.867 --> 00:23:02.938
And we ended up staying
00:23:03.438 --> 00:23:04.806
For a number of more years
00:23:04.806 --> 00:23:06.007
And had a great ministry there.
00:23:06.007 --> 00:23:08.376
But that's really true.
00:23:08.376 --> 00:23:09.578
Faith doesn't always mean going.
00:23:09.578 --> 00:23:11.780
Sometimes it means staying where you are.
00:23:11.780 --> 00:23:15.016
♪ music ♪
00:23:15.016 --> 00:23:19.421
So here's the question.
00:23:19.921 --> 00:23:21.423
Are you ready to take your next steps with god?
00:23:21.423 --> 00:23:24.059
No matter where you've been or what you've done,
00:23:24.059 --> 00:23:26.995
No matter how you've treated god in the past,
00:23:26.995 --> 00:23:29.831
You can trust him with your future.
00:23:29.831 --> 00:23:32.767
And if you're willing
00:23:32.767 --> 00:23:34.135
To help "pathway to victory" tell more people
00:23:34.135 --> 00:23:35.403
About this liberating love of god.
00:23:35.403 --> 00:23:38.707
Let me encourage you to reach out today
00:23:38.707 --> 00:23:40.509
With a generous gift.
00:23:40.509 --> 00:23:42.177
Your personal investment empowers us
00:23:42.177 --> 00:23:44.846
To take this daily program far and wide.
00:23:44.846 --> 00:23:47.983
In that sense, when you give generously,
00:23:47.983 --> 00:23:50.418
You actually have a ministry all of your own.
00:23:50.418 --> 00:23:53.755
Thank you so much
00:23:53.755 --> 00:23:54.789
For your continued faithfulness.
00:23:54.789 --> 00:23:56.892
We couldn't provide this daily program
00:23:56.892 --> 00:23:58.894
Without friends just like you.
00:23:58.894 --> 00:24:01.463
Now, please stay right there.
00:24:01.463 --> 00:24:02.697
I'll be back with one final word
00:24:02.697 --> 00:24:04.366
For today in just a moment.
00:24:04.366 --> 00:24:07.235
Dr. robert jeffress has written a book
00:24:08.069 --> 00:24:09.938
To help you rediscover the joy of time with god.
00:24:09.938 --> 00:24:13.308
It's called "spiritual essentials".
00:24:13.308 --> 00:24:15.544
In "spiritual essentials",
00:24:15.544 --> 00:24:17.112
I share three simple, deeply personal ways
00:24:17.112 --> 00:24:20.815
You can make god's word a meaningful
00:24:20.815 --> 00:24:22.751
Part of your everyday life,
00:24:22.751 --> 00:24:24.920
Including a practical plan
00:24:24.920 --> 00:24:26.688
To help you get started today.
00:24:26.688 --> 00:24:29.190
These are the same strategies i use
00:24:29.190 --> 00:24:31.493
In my own bible study.
00:24:31.493 --> 00:24:33.295
I'll also show you how to pray
00:24:33.295 --> 00:24:35.063
With purpose and confidence
00:24:35.063 --> 00:24:36.898
For your children and grandchildren.
00:24:36.898 --> 00:24:39.534
Whether you've been walking
00:24:39.534 --> 00:24:40.502
With god for decades
00:24:40.502 --> 00:24:41.603
Or you're just getting started,
00:24:41.603 --> 00:24:42.871
"spiritual essentials" will help you get
00:24:42.871 --> 00:24:44.940
Back to the basics of your faith
00:24:44.940 --> 00:24:46.875
And experience god's presence
00:24:46.875 --> 00:24:48.610
In a fresh, new way.
00:24:48.610 --> 00:24:50.712
Request your copy of "spiritual essentials"
00:24:50.712 --> 00:24:53.048
When you give a generous gift
00:24:53.048 --> 00:24:54.482
To support the ministry of "pathway to victory".
00:24:54.482 --> 00:24:57.185
And when you give $50 or more,
00:24:57.185 --> 00:24:59.287
We'll also send you the complete
00:24:59.287 --> 00:25:00.989
"spiritual fitness" teaching series
00:25:00.989 --> 00:25:03.124
On both cd and dvd.
00:25:03.124 --> 00:25:05.226
When we go through fiery problems in our life,
00:25:05.226 --> 00:25:09.230
Sometimes those problems can strengthen us,
00:25:09.230 --> 00:25:13.602
But sometimes they
00:25:13.602 --> 00:25:14.669
Can cause our faith to shatter.
00:25:14.669 --> 00:25:17.072
Thank you for giving generously
00:25:17.072 --> 00:25:18.773
To "pathway to victory".
00:25:18.773 --> 00:25:20.508
Every day your support makes it possible
00:25:20.508 --> 00:25:22.744
To reach people across the nation
00:25:22.744 --> 00:25:24.579
And around the world
00:25:24.579 --> 00:25:25.680
With the practical life-changing
00:25:25.680 --> 00:25:27.616
Truth of god's word, transforming lives,
00:25:27.616 --> 00:25:31.086
Strengthening families,
00:25:31.086 --> 00:25:32.287
And pointing a lost world
00:25:32.287 --> 00:25:34.389
Toward hope in jesus christ.
00:25:34.389 --> 00:25:38.893
Abraham didn't know where he would end up,
00:25:39.794 --> 00:25:42.430
But that didn't stop him from moving forward.
00:25:42.430 --> 00:25:45.433
Abraham trusted god and he was willing
00:25:45.433 --> 00:25:48.069
To follow god's plan.
00:25:48.069 --> 00:25:50.338
In the same way god is calling you
00:25:50.338 --> 00:25:52.240
To move forward
00:25:52.240 --> 00:25:53.375
Even when you can't see the future.
00:25:53.375 --> 00:25:55.610
Well sometimes faith requires not just moving,
00:25:55.610 --> 00:25:59.180
But sometimes it requires waiting.
00:25:59.180 --> 00:26:02.083
It means sitting in silence.
00:26:02.083 --> 00:26:04.386
And next time i'll share a classic illustration
00:26:04.386 --> 00:26:06.821

00:26:06.821 --> 00:26:09.991
To hear the voice of god.

00:26:20.168 --> 00:26:22.270
Abraham and sarah,
00:26:22.270 --> 00:26:23.705
And it would've been tempting to think,
00:26:23.705 --> 00:26:25.106
"oh, i wish i could go back home."
00:26:25.106 --> 00:26:28.777
Those who want to please god, walk with god,
00:26:28.777 --> 00:26:31.780
