Allen Jackson Ministries | Allen Jackson - Nominated For Assignment (Part 2) | April 15, 2026
  • ...
  • 00:00:00.633 --> 00:00:01.017
  • Allen jackson: hey, would you like to make an impact for the
  • 00:00:01.785 --> 00:00:03.253
  • Kingdom of god in this generation?
  • 00:00:03.386 --> 00:00:05.021
  • I have an idea and, oh, by the way, it's biblical.
  • 00:00:05.155 --> 00:00:06.056
  • Let's practice hospitality.
  • 00:00:07.590 --> 00:00:09.626
  • I know it doesn't sound very complicated, but imagine your
  • 00:00:09.626 --> 00:00:12.328
  • Kitchen table as an expression of the hope and the love of god.
  • 00:00:12.328 --> 00:00:16.266
  • We've all got the ability to do this.
  • 00:00:16.266 --> 00:00:17.767
  • You don't have to be martha stewart.
  • 00:00:17.767 --> 00:00:19.135
  • You don't have to be a gourmet chef.
  • 00:00:19.135 --> 00:00:21.738
  • Let's just invite--open our home, invite people to our
  • 00:00:21.738 --> 00:00:24.441
  • Kitchen table, and then watch what god will do as we live out
  • 00:00:24.441 --> 00:00:28.812
  • The assignment of being ambassadors for his kingdom.
  • 00:00:28.812 --> 00:00:31.915
  • God's moving in the earth. let's go with him.
  • 00:00:31.915 --> 00:00:34.084
  • Female announcer: welcoming people to a meal around the
  • 00:00:34.084 --> 00:00:35.518
  • Kitchen table is one of the easiest ways to share life and
  • 00:00:35.518 --> 00:00:38.822
  • Your faith.
  • 00:00:38.822 --> 00:00:40.423
  • Our tools for hospitality set will help you get started.
  • 00:00:40.423 --> 00:00:43.693
  • It includes a custom kitchen towel, three of pastor allen's
  • 00:00:43.693 --> 00:00:46.796
  • Favorite family recipes, and a short booklet with
  • 00:00:46.796 --> 00:00:49.365
  • Practical encouragement.
  • 00:00:49.365 --> 00:00:51.034
  • Request the tools for hospitality set with your gift
  • 00:00:51.034 --> 00:00:53.369
  • Of $25 or more at allenjackson.com or call...
  • 00:00:53.369 --> 00:01:04.314
  • Allen jackson: i would submit to you that serving the lord is an
  • 00:01:08.551 --> 00:01:10.887
  • Expression of gratitude and a display on our part of an
  • 00:01:10.887 --> 00:01:14.624
  • Awareness of his glory.
  • 00:01:14.624 --> 00:01:19.229
  • Now, i wanna go back to the moses narrative because god
  • 00:01:19.229 --> 00:01:22.765
  • Provides moses with all the tools that he's going to need
  • 00:01:22.765 --> 00:01:25.835
  • For his assignment.
  • 00:01:25.835 --> 00:01:27.470
  • And he really gives him an introduction to those tools at
  • 00:01:27.470 --> 00:01:31.574
  • The point of his recruitment.
  • 00:01:31.574 --> 00:01:35.011
  • See, i would submit to you that when you experience the new
  • 00:01:35.011 --> 00:01:37.580
  • Birth, you are given exposure to all the tools you will need for
  • 00:01:37.580 --> 00:01:41.684
  • Your assignment.
  • 00:01:41.684 --> 00:01:43.620
  • It requires the creative power of an almighty god to transfer
  • 00:01:43.620 --> 00:01:48.825
  • You from a kingdom of darkness doomed to destruction to the
  • 00:01:48.825 --> 00:01:52.195
  • Kingdom of the son of almighty god, where you are given all the
  • 00:01:52.195 --> 00:01:56.065
  • Rights and privileges that come with that kingdom.
  • 00:01:56.065 --> 00:02:00.803
  • I smile, a bit derisively, but i smile when i hear christians
  • 00:02:00.803 --> 00:02:05.542
  • Say, "you know, i don't believe in miracles.
  • 00:02:05.542 --> 00:02:06.876
  • I'm a cessationist."
  • 00:02:06.876 --> 00:02:08.244
  • I'm like, then how do you think you were born again?
  • 00:02:08.244 --> 00:02:13.049
  • Pixie dust?
  • 00:02:13.049 --> 00:02:15.752
  • Did you click your heels together?
  • 00:02:15.752 --> 00:02:18.488
  • Exactly what do you think that is?
  • 00:02:18.488 --> 00:02:20.690
  • It's the greatest miracle that will ever touch your person,
  • 00:02:20.690 --> 00:02:23.793
  • Body, soul, and spirit.
  • 00:02:23.793 --> 00:02:30.800
  • Walk with me for just a minute.
  • 00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:32.268
  • We're not gonna look at all of moses's recruitment, but i wanna
  • 00:02:32.268 --> 00:02:34.771
  • Touch a component or two.
  • 00:02:34.771 --> 00:02:38.474
  • Back to exodus 3 and verse 13.
  • 00:02:38.474 --> 00:02:40.410
  • Moses says to the lord after he's been given this
  • 00:02:40.410 --> 00:02:42.979
  • Announcement, moses says to god, "well, suppose i go to the
  • 00:02:42.979 --> 00:02:47.483
  • Israelites and say to them, 'the god of your fathers has sent me
  • 00:02:47.483 --> 00:02:50.320
  • To you,' and they ask me, 'well, what's his name?
  • 00:02:50.320 --> 00:02:56.726
  • Then what am i gonna tell them?"
  • 00:02:56.726 --> 00:02:59.596
  • I'm thinking that's a very germane question.
  • 00:02:59.596 --> 00:03:03.333
  • I'm gonna roll up into egypt smelling a lot like sheep.
  • 00:03:03.333 --> 00:03:08.071
  • They've been slaves now for hundreds of years, over 400
  • 00:03:08.071 --> 00:03:10.640
  • Years, and i'm gonna roll up in there and say, "pack your bags,
  • 00:03:10.640 --> 00:03:13.276
  • We're leaving."
  • 00:03:13.276 --> 00:03:16.446
  • I think moses is a--pretty aware as a leader.
  • 00:03:16.446 --> 00:03:19.282
  • He said, "well, just suppose, let's just imagine--imagine with
  • 00:03:19.282 --> 00:03:24.220
  • Me for a minute, god.
  • 00:03:24.220 --> 00:03:26.990
  • I roll up with this announcement and they go, 'who sent you?'
  • 00:03:26.990 --> 00:03:32.395
  • What am i gonna say then?
  • 00:03:32.395 --> 00:03:33.963
  • A burning bush?"
  • 00:03:33.963 --> 00:03:41.504
  • Some of you know the answer.
  • 00:03:41.504 --> 00:03:42.872
  • God said, "tell them i am sent you."
  • 00:03:42.872 --> 00:03:45.208
  • But it's the question i wanna focus your attention on.
  • 00:03:45.208 --> 00:03:47.577
  • What moses is saying is, "exactly by whose authority am i
  • 00:03:47.577 --> 00:03:52.282
  • Accepting this commission?"
  • 00:03:52.282 --> 00:03:56.619
  • And the question that's gonna be put to me is: who are you to
  • 00:03:56.619 --> 00:03:59.656
  • Make such statements?
  • 00:03:59.656 --> 00:04:02.525
  • And that's the question that lives large amongst us.
  • 00:04:02.525 --> 00:04:07.430
  • When you say, "i believe there is a god and i believe there's
  • 00:04:07.430 --> 00:04:10.600
  • Such a thing as right and wrong and good and evil.
  • 00:04:10.600 --> 00:04:13.603
  • That marriage and the definition of marriage really is not a
  • 00:04:13.603 --> 00:04:16.239
  • Political conversation, it's a biblical conversation.
  • 00:04:16.239 --> 00:04:19.976
  • That sexual morality and immorality is not a political
  • 00:04:19.976 --> 00:04:22.378
  • Conversation at all, it's a biblical conversation," well,
  • 00:04:22.378 --> 00:04:25.014
  • This question immediately is put forward.
  • 00:04:25.014 --> 00:04:27.283
  • "well, just exactly who are you?
  • 00:04:27.283 --> 00:04:30.286
  • By whose authority would you say such things?"
  • 00:04:30.286 --> 00:04:36.392
  • And we understand that question exists, so we choose silence, or
  • 00:04:36.392 --> 00:04:41.597
  • Maybe, even worse, we capitulate and we choose the culturals
  • 00:04:41.597 --> 00:04:44.367
  • Answer--cultural answer.
  • 00:04:44.367 --> 00:04:52.275
  • I want to answer it a little more broadly for you.
  • 00:04:52.275 --> 00:04:54.310
  • In matthew chapter 21, jesus is ministering.
  • 00:04:54.310 --> 00:04:58.681
  • Now, this is jesus near the end of his ministry.
  • 00:04:58.681 --> 00:05:00.450
  • Matthew 21, there's 28 chapters, so we're, he's beginning his
  • 00:05:00.450 --> 00:05:04.754
  • March towards the cross now.
  • 00:05:04.754 --> 00:05:06.122
  • It's his last trip to jerusalem before crucifixion.
  • 00:05:06.122 --> 00:05:10.126
  • Before he's done with these messages he'll be arrested and
  • 00:05:10.126 --> 00:05:12.729
  • Tortured to death.
  • 00:05:12.729 --> 00:05:14.063
  • Just for the--the timeline is important.
  • 00:05:14.063 --> 00:05:15.965
  • "jesus entered the temple courts," he's raised the dead,
  • 00:05:15.965 --> 00:05:18.368
  • He's walked on water, he's made wine at a wedding.
  • 00:05:18.368 --> 00:05:22.672
  • How many of you think that would get you invited to more
  • 00:05:22.672 --> 00:05:24.273
  • Christmas parties?
  • 00:05:24.273 --> 00:05:28.978
  • Tell you the truth, if you take jesus to the christmas parties,
  • 00:05:28.978 --> 00:05:31.247
  • It may impact your invitations.
  • 00:05:31.247 --> 00:05:34.450
  • There'll be some new ones, and some of the familiar ones maybe
  • 00:05:34.450 --> 00:05:37.854
  • Not as much.
  • 00:05:37.854 --> 00:05:39.255
  • "jesus entered the temple courts, and, while he was
  • 00:05:39.255 --> 00:05:41.357
  • Teaching, the chief priest and the elders of the people came
  • 00:05:41.357 --> 00:05:43.659
  • To him.
  • 00:05:43.659 --> 00:05:45.027
  • 'by what authority are you doing these things?
  • 00:05:45.027 --> 00:05:49.165
  • Who gave you this authority?'"
  • 00:05:49.165 --> 00:05:52.435
  • It's the exact same question moses had.
  • 00:05:52.435 --> 00:05:54.604
  • It's relevant because it's the same question you and i face.
  • 00:05:54.604 --> 00:05:58.107
  • "well, who are you?"
  • 00:05:58.107 --> 00:06:01.811
  • Well, actually, i'm not that significant, but i serve a king
  • 00:06:01.811 --> 00:06:08.551
  • And i have chosen to yield myself to his authority and i
  • 00:06:08.551 --> 00:06:11.220
  • Would wish the same for you because i believe, ultimately,
  • 00:06:11.220 --> 00:06:14.223
  • You'll give account to the king, and i believe it's a higher
  • 00:06:14.223 --> 00:06:18.961
  • Authority than governments or economics.
  • 00:06:18.961 --> 00:06:22.732
  • That one day your earth suit will wear out and you'll step
  • 00:06:22.732 --> 00:06:24.967
  • Into eternity and you'll be asked to give an account for
  • 00:06:24.967 --> 00:06:27.170
  • What you made with your journey through time.
  • 00:06:27.170 --> 00:06:29.272
  • That's more than did you sit in church?
  • 00:06:29.272 --> 00:06:32.575
  • That's more than were you polite, or were you kind?
  • 00:06:32.575 --> 00:06:34.610
  • It's going to be a kingdom evaluation.
  • 00:06:34.610 --> 00:06:36.279
  • To which kingdom do you belong?
  • 00:06:36.279 --> 00:06:39.615
  • It's not about did you try?
  • 00:06:39.615 --> 00:06:41.083
  • Trying doesn't matter.
  • 00:06:41.083 --> 00:06:44.554
  • This is not a trying evaluation.
  • 00:06:44.554 --> 00:06:46.689
  • Some of us are better triers than others.
  • 00:06:46.689 --> 00:06:50.193
  • It's about submitting to an authority of the king.
  • 00:06:50.193 --> 00:06:52.261
  • They ask jesus the same question.
  • 00:06:52.261 --> 00:06:54.597
  • In john 16, jesus addressed it with his closest friends.
  • 00:06:54.597 --> 00:06:57.667
  • He's preparing them for his exit.
  • 00:06:57.667 --> 00:06:59.168
  • He said, "until now you've not asked for anything in my name.
  • 00:06:59.168 --> 00:07:01.838
  • Ask and you'll receive, and your joy will be complete."
  • 00:07:01.838 --> 00:07:04.807
  • "i give you my name.
  • 00:07:04.807 --> 00:07:06.375
  • You can use the authority of my name."
  • 00:07:06.375 --> 00:07:10.313
  • Wow, that's--that changes this equation.
  • 00:07:10.313 --> 00:07:14.250
  • We're not just observing religious rules any longer,
  • 00:07:14.250 --> 00:07:16.586
  • We've been given authority from the king himself.
  • 00:07:16.586 --> 00:07:19.155
  • "here's my signet ring, you use it."
  • 00:07:19.155 --> 00:07:23.159
  • "here's my passcodes."
  • 00:07:23.159 --> 00:07:25.828
  • That's an amazing declaration.
  • 00:07:25.828 --> 00:07:28.431
  • It has very sweeping, though, implications.
  • 00:07:28.431 --> 00:07:30.833
  • We need to be aware of them.
  • 00:07:30.833 --> 00:07:32.201
  • Matthew chapter 18, this is the same discourse, the
  • 00:07:32.201 --> 00:07:34.770
  • Same dialogue.
  • 00:07:34.770 --> 00:07:36.138
  • Jesus said, "whomever welcomes a little child like this in my
  • 00:07:36.138 --> 00:07:39.275
  • Name welcomes me."
  • 00:07:39.275 --> 00:07:41.811
  • There should be a little yellow light flashing somewhere.
  • 00:07:41.811 --> 00:07:46.549
  • "whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name,"
  • 00:07:46.549 --> 00:07:56.325
  • If you're welcoming those children into ungodliness,
  • 00:07:56.325 --> 00:08:00.162
  • If you're welcoming those children into destructive
  • 00:08:00.162 --> 00:08:02.732
  • Things, if you're welcoming those children
  • 00:08:02.732 --> 00:08:05.868
  • Into destructive habits, if you're mistreating those
  • 00:08:05.868 --> 00:08:09.739
  • Children, jesus said what the outcome would be.
  • 00:08:09.739 --> 00:08:11.707
  • He said, "you go find a big rock," in fact, the biggest rock
  • 00:08:11.707 --> 00:08:14.810
  • They were familiar with a millstone.
  • 00:08:14.810 --> 00:08:16.946
  • He said, "you tie that sucker around your neck and you go find
  • 00:08:16.946 --> 00:08:19.415
  • The deepest water you can find.
  • 00:08:19.415 --> 00:08:21.050
  • That's the best day you'll ever have."
  • 00:08:21.050 --> 00:08:26.389
  • I don't understand that to be a threat.
  • 00:08:26.389 --> 00:08:29.158
  • I understand that to be a promise.
  • 00:08:29.158 --> 00:08:32.395
  • So i believe we have an assignment to welcome the
  • 00:08:32.395 --> 00:08:35.431
  • Children in the name of the king.
  • 00:08:35.431 --> 00:08:39.969
  • That's important stuff, folks.
  • 00:08:39.969 --> 00:08:42.071
  • It's why we care about the books in the library.
  • 00:08:42.071 --> 00:08:45.841
  • It's why we care about protecting--it's why we have to
  • 00:08:45.841 --> 00:08:49.211
  • Care about being a voice for those who don't have a voice.
  • 00:08:49.211 --> 00:08:53.049
  • There are all sorts of implications to that.
  • 00:08:53.049 --> 00:08:56.152
  • In john 14, jesus said something else.
  • 00:08:56.152 --> 00:08:58.487
  • He said, "the counselor, or the holy spirit, whom the father
  • 00:08:58.487 --> 00:09:00.756
  • Will send in my name, will teach you all things, he will remind
  • 00:09:00.756 --> 00:09:04.493
  • You of everything i've said to you."
  • 00:09:04.493 --> 00:09:05.828
  • He said, "i'm gonna send you a helper," that's the literal
  • 00:09:05.828 --> 00:09:08.097
  • Translation of the word.
  • 00:09:08.097 --> 00:09:09.432
  • "he will help you.
  • 00:09:09.432 --> 00:09:10.800
  • A guide, a counselor.
  • 00:09:10.800 --> 00:09:12.435
  • I'm sending him in my name.
  • 00:09:12.435 --> 00:09:14.036
  • He's coming with my authority.
  • 00:09:14.036 --> 00:09:15.771
  • He'll teach you everything you need to know."
  • 00:09:15.771 --> 00:09:20.142
  • It's a recruitment plan; very, very similar to what god said to
  • 00:09:20.142 --> 00:09:24.313
  • Moses in exodus 3, "i'll give you what you need."
  • 00:09:24.313 --> 00:09:29.118
  • The question that was real in exodus 3, some, i don't know,
  • 00:09:29.118 --> 00:09:33.055
  • More than 1500 years before the birth of jesus, it's as relevant
  • 00:09:33.055 --> 00:09:38.561
  • In the 21st century.
  • 00:09:38.561 --> 00:09:40.630
  • "whose authority are you talking in?
  • 00:09:40.630 --> 00:09:44.567
  • Who sent you?"
  • 00:09:44.567 --> 00:09:47.370
  • I'm glad you asked.
  • 00:09:47.370 --> 00:09:52.274
  • God continued moses's prep.
  • 00:09:52.274 --> 00:09:53.943
  • Same encounter, same burning bush, exodus 4, "moses answered,
  • 00:09:53.943 --> 00:09:57.680
  • 'what if they don't believe me or listen to me?'"
  • 00:09:57.680 --> 00:09:59.448
  • He's not turning loose to this quickly.
  • 00:09:59.448 --> 00:10:04.286
  • "'what if they say, "the lord did not appear to you?'"
  • 00:10:04.286 --> 00:10:08.557
  • And the lord said to him, 'what's in your hand?'
  • 00:10:08.557 --> 00:10:11.861
  • 'what?
  • 00:10:11.861 --> 00:10:13.229
  • It's my staff.'
  • 00:10:13.229 --> 00:10:16.866
  • 'throw it on the ground.'
  • 00:10:16.866 --> 00:10:18.234
  • Moses threw it on the ground and it became a snake, and he ran
  • 00:10:18.234 --> 00:10:20.403
  • From it," smart man.
  • 00:10:20.403 --> 00:10:23.072
  • "and the lord said to him, 'reach out your hand
  • 00:10:23.072 --> 00:10:24.640
  • And take it by the tail.'
  • 00:10:24.640 --> 00:10:26.108
  • So moses reached out and took hold of the snake and turned it
  • 00:10:26.108 --> 00:10:27.910
  • Back into a staff in his hand."
  • 00:10:27.910 --> 00:10:30.212
  • In mark 16, when jesus said, "you'll take up snakes," i
  • 00:10:30.212 --> 00:10:34.684
  • Promise you his audience understood this reference.
  • 00:10:34.684 --> 00:10:39.321
  • They were not thinking about crazy people in the hills of
  • 00:10:39.321 --> 00:10:41.524
  • East tennessee handling poisonous snakes.
  • 00:10:41.524 --> 00:10:46.462
  • They knew the recruitment narrative of moses.
  • 00:10:46.462 --> 00:10:51.133
  • They understood what jesus was saying to them.
  • 00:10:51.133 --> 00:10:54.870
  • That, "just as my father recruited and provisioned moses
  • 00:10:54.870 --> 00:10:59.442
  • At that bush to become the greatest leader of the world has
  • 00:10:59.442 --> 00:11:02.011
  • Known," he said, "now i'm sending you."
  • 00:11:02.011 --> 00:11:04.747
  • God sent him to pharaoh, but he said, "i'm sending you.
  • 00:11:04.747 --> 00:11:09.552
  • I'm sending you."
  • 00:11:09.552 --> 00:11:12.388
  • Moses picked that snake up.
  • 00:11:12.388 --> 00:11:13.889
  • Are you kidding me?
  • 00:11:13.889 --> 00:11:16.358
  • And it became a staff again.
  • 00:11:16.358 --> 00:11:20.563
  • Allen: i have a childhood memory i wanna share with you.
  • 00:11:24.667 --> 00:11:26.602
  • It was our kitchen table.
  • 00:11:26.602 --> 00:11:27.937
  • I've got two younger brothers.
  • 00:11:27.937 --> 00:11:29.572
  • I've gathered around the table, and my parents were
  • 00:11:29.572 --> 00:11:31.841
  • Consistently, persistently inviting guests to dinner.
  • 00:11:31.841 --> 00:11:35.578
  • You know, practicing that notion of hospitality, my brothers and
  • 00:11:35.578 --> 00:11:38.614
  • I weren't always excited about it, but i realized that we had a
  • 00:11:38.614 --> 00:11:41.817
  • Front row seat for expressions of the kingdom of god.
  • 00:11:41.817 --> 00:11:45.287
  • We can still do the same.
  • 00:11:45.287 --> 00:11:46.655
  • Imagine your kitchen table as an expression of god's love in
  • 00:11:46.655 --> 00:11:50.192
  • This generation.
  • 00:11:50.192 --> 00:11:51.527
  • God's moving in the earth.
  • 00:11:51.527 --> 00:11:52.862
  • Let's join him.
  • 00:11:52.862 --> 00:11:54.196
  • Announcer: hospitality doesn't have to be complicated.
  • 00:11:54.196 --> 00:11:56.699
  • Sometimes it begins with inviting someone to your
  • 00:11:56.699 --> 00:11:59.001
  • Kitchen table.
  • 00:11:59.001 --> 00:12:00.636

  • It includes a custom kitchen towel that reminds you sweet
  • 00:12:04.473 --> 00:12:07.143
  • Tea, pecan pie, and your god-story make difference.
  • 00:12:07.143 --> 00:12:10.312

  • 00:12:19.288 --> 00:12:26.328
  • Allen: see, we've had this mistaken notion that if we
  • 00:12:26.395 --> 00:12:28.831
  • Believe in the supernatural it means that we won't have any
  • 00:12:28.831 --> 00:12:30.699
  • Problems, we won't have any challenges, we won't have any
  • 00:12:30.699 --> 00:12:33.669
  • Threats, we won't have any difficulty.
  • 00:12:33.669 --> 00:12:35.271
  • All the mountains will melt before us.
  • 00:12:35.271 --> 00:12:36.772
  • We'll just leap from victory to victory.
  • 00:12:36.772 --> 00:12:40.309
  • That's not a biblical notion.
  • 00:12:40.309 --> 00:12:41.777
  • It's a very selfish notion.
  • 00:12:41.777 --> 00:12:43.746
  • Because as soon as we encounter difficulty or obstructions or
  • 00:12:43.746 --> 00:12:46.849
  • Resistance, we go, "oh, i thought god called me, but it
  • 00:12:46.849 --> 00:12:49.084
  • Couldn't be god."
  • 00:12:49.084 --> 00:12:51.754
  • Have you read your bible?
  • 00:12:51.754 --> 00:12:55.124
  • They killed our lord.
  • 00:12:55.124 --> 00:12:57.760
  • They brought his closest friends in after the ascension and they
  • 00:12:57.760 --> 00:13:00.863
  • Said, "if you don't stop talking about him, we're gonna kill
  • 00:13:00.863 --> 00:13:02.898
  • You too."
  • 00:13:02.898 --> 00:13:04.800
  • And they did.
  • 00:13:04.800 --> 00:13:07.870
  • We've got martyrs before we get past acts chapter 10.
  • 00:13:07.870 --> 00:13:13.309
  • Multiple times they beat paul almost to death before they did
  • 00:13:13.309 --> 00:13:18.113
  • Execute him.
  • 00:13:18.113 --> 00:13:19.915
  • What makes us think that living in the supernatural power of god
  • 00:13:19.915 --> 00:13:24.620
  • Means we've been removed from the arena of difficulty
  • 00:13:24.620 --> 00:13:27.623
  • And challenge?
  • 00:13:27.623 --> 00:13:30.259
  • What it does mean to us is we're gonna get outcomes beyond
  • 00:13:30.259 --> 00:13:33.162
  • Our self.
  • 00:13:33.162 --> 00:13:35.231
  • The lord will do things that we think, wow, and it'll take our
  • 00:13:35.231 --> 00:13:39.468
  • Very best.
  • 00:13:39.468 --> 00:13:44.940
  • How am i doing? oh, we're all right.
  • 00:13:44.940 --> 00:13:48.878
  • Look at exodus 12.
  • 00:13:48.878 --> 00:13:51.747
  • It's their last night in egypt.
  • 00:13:51.747 --> 00:13:53.515
  • They're getting ready to leave.
  • 00:13:53.515 --> 00:13:56.285
  • Death's come to egypt, the firstborn in every household
  • 00:13:56.285 --> 00:13:58.554
  • Has died, imagine the fear that would bring.
  • 00:13:58.554 --> 00:14:01.891
  • Imagine what it would be like in rutherford county today if last
  • 00:14:01.891 --> 00:14:04.193
  • Night the firstborn in every household, human being or
  • 00:14:04.193 --> 00:14:07.329
  • Animal, died.
  • 00:14:07.329 --> 00:14:10.065
  • Imagine the terror of sunrise.
  • 00:14:10.065 --> 00:14:13.002
  • Imagine the complete panic it could get dark again.
  • 00:14:13.002 --> 00:14:17.406
  • We hid in our homes from covid.
  • 00:14:17.406 --> 00:14:20.643
  • It was bad enough.
  • 00:14:20.643 --> 00:14:23.445
  • The people want the hebrews gone, desperately.
  • 00:14:23.445 --> 00:14:29.351
  • Says, "the egyptians urged the people to hurry and leave
  • 00:14:29.351 --> 00:14:32.154
  • The country."
  • 00:14:32.154 --> 00:14:33.522
  • The bible has such a gift for understatement.
  • 00:14:33.522 --> 00:14:36.258
  • Before the sunset these people have to be gone.
  • 00:14:36.258 --> 00:14:39.728
  • Whatever it takes, they gotta be gone.
  • 00:14:39.728 --> 00:14:42.031
  • This isn't a rational thing.
  • 00:14:42.031 --> 00:14:43.866
  • This is a panic expulsion.
  • 00:14:43.866 --> 00:14:51.740
  • "'for otherwise,' they said, 'we will all die!'
  • 00:14:51.740 --> 00:14:54.443
  • So the people took their dough before the yeast was added, and
  • 00:14:54.443 --> 00:14:57.379
  • They carried it on their shoulders and kneading troughs
  • 00:14:57.379 --> 00:14:59.315
  • Wrapped in clothing."
  • 00:14:59.315 --> 00:15:00.683
  • You wonder why matzah, the jewish bread, is unleavened?
  • 00:15:00.683 --> 00:15:03.485
  • It's a reference to god's deliverance in their lives.
  • 00:15:03.485 --> 00:15:05.721
  • They didn't have time for the yeast to work.
  • 00:15:05.721 --> 00:15:07.523
  • "we had to leave, so we ate unleavened bread."
  • 00:15:07.523 --> 00:15:12.194
  • "the israelites did as moses instructed and they asked the
  • 00:15:12.194 --> 00:15:14.663
  • Egyptians for articles of silver and gold and for clothing.
  • 00:15:14.663 --> 00:15:17.900
  • The lord had made the egyptians favorably disposed towards the
  • 00:15:17.900 --> 00:15:21.236
  • People," well, actually, what the lord did was kill the
  • 00:15:21.236 --> 00:15:23.672
  • Firstborn in every house.
  • 00:15:23.672 --> 00:15:27.743
  • He scared them so badly that there was no material possession
  • 00:15:27.743 --> 00:15:30.813
  • They had that had any value to them.
  • 00:15:30.813 --> 00:15:36.218
  • "and they gave them what they asked for; so the hebrews
  • 00:15:36.218 --> 00:15:40.322
  • Plundered the egyptians."
  • 00:15:40.322 --> 00:15:42.458
  • They took their wages.
  • 00:15:42.458 --> 00:15:46.228
  • That's supernatural.
  • 00:15:46.228 --> 00:15:49.765
  • That's not just a revival.
  • 00:15:49.765 --> 00:15:53.102
  • That's a total transformation.
  • 00:15:53.102 --> 00:15:56.472
  • The god we serve, the assignment he's given us, will require
  • 00:15:56.472 --> 00:16:01.310
  • Tremendous change.
  • 00:16:01.310 --> 00:16:04.380
  • But it begins with us.
  • 00:16:04.380 --> 00:16:07.116
  • Exodus 14, "the israelites went through the sea on dry ground,
  • 00:16:07.116 --> 00:16:11.453
  • With a wall of water on their right and on their left.
  • 00:16:11.453 --> 00:16:13.589
  • And that day the lord saved israel from the hands of the
  • 00:16:13.589 --> 00:16:15.624
  • Egyptians, and israel saw the egyptians lying dead on
  • 00:16:15.624 --> 00:16:17.860
  • The shore.
  • 00:16:17.860 --> 00:16:19.862
  • And when the israelites saw the great power, the lord displayed
  • 00:16:19.862 --> 00:16:22.731
  • Against the egyptians, the people feared the lord and put
  • 00:16:22.731 --> 00:16:26.502
  • Their trust in him and in moses his servant."
  • 00:16:26.502 --> 00:16:31.407
  • You know how long that trust lasted?
  • 00:16:31.407 --> 00:16:34.543
  • Seventy-two hours.
  • 00:16:34.543 --> 00:16:37.546
  • That's exodus 14.
  • 00:16:37.546 --> 00:16:38.881
  • But exodus 15?
  • 00:16:38.881 --> 00:16:40.849
  • It says three days later they rolled up to a water source and
  • 00:16:40.849 --> 00:16:45.654
  • They couldn't drink the water and the people grumbled and
  • 00:16:45.654 --> 00:16:47.623
  • Said, "we should have stayed in egypt."
  • 00:16:47.623 --> 00:16:51.126
  • That victory dance lasted three days.
  • 00:16:51.126 --> 00:16:53.662
  • They were tired of moses.
  • 00:16:53.662 --> 00:16:56.165
  • Don't you--can you--do you think moses said anything to the lord?
  • 00:16:56.165 --> 00:16:59.635
  • "could i revisit that conversation at the bush about
  • 00:16:59.635 --> 00:17:01.970
  • 'what if they say?'"
  • 00:17:01.970 --> 00:17:05.007
  • See, we're not called to serve--we're not called to lead
  • 00:17:05.007 --> 00:17:08.277
  • With our faith because everybody's going to applaud,
  • 00:17:08.277 --> 00:17:10.412
  • Because there won't be any consequences.
  • 00:17:10.412 --> 00:17:11.814
  • There'll be tremendous victories, great breakthroughs.
  • 00:17:11.814 --> 00:17:14.183
  • You'll see lives changed, families redirected, children
  • 00:17:14.183 --> 00:17:17.586
  • Find hope delivered from demonic torment.
  • 00:17:17.586 --> 00:17:21.090
  • You'll see people healed, you'll see amazing expressions of the
  • 00:17:21.090 --> 00:17:23.425
  • Power of god, and you'll attend funerals for people that you
  • 00:17:23.425 --> 00:17:25.661
  • Love dearly.
  • 00:17:25.661 --> 00:17:28.530
  • Folks, we're not removed from the arena.
  • 00:17:28.530 --> 00:17:32.334
  • But there's another power given to us and we will come to
  • 00:17:32.334 --> 00:17:34.636
  • Understand that there's a king, and it isn't us.
  • 00:17:34.636 --> 00:17:38.707
  • We keep coming back, going, "wait a minute, if i were a
  • 00:17:38.707 --> 00:17:40.609
  • King, i wouldn't do it that way."
  • 00:17:40.609 --> 00:17:41.944
  • That's the--i'm not.
  • 00:17:41.944 --> 00:17:44.613
  • If i were king.
  • 00:17:44.613 --> 00:17:46.615
  • So i gave you a prayer.
  • 00:17:46.615 --> 00:17:47.950
  • It's a little let's pray moment.
  • 00:17:47.950 --> 00:17:49.284
  • Sometime over these next few weeks you're gonna be with some
  • 00:17:49.284 --> 00:17:50.752
  • Folks and you'll hear someone describing a scenario where the
  • 00:17:50.752 --> 00:17:54.223
  • Only real solution, the only acceptable outcome, is the
  • 00:17:54.223 --> 00:17:57.226
  • Supernatural involvement of god.
  • 00:17:57.226 --> 00:17:59.328
  • You got a couple of options at that point.
  • 00:17:59.328 --> 00:18:00.863
  • You can act like you didn't notice, you can use the great
  • 00:18:00.863 --> 00:18:04.133
  • Southern euphemism.
  • 00:18:04.133 --> 00:18:06.368
  • "well, bless your heart."
  • 00:18:06.368 --> 00:18:11.673
  • If you're visiting with us and you're not from the south and
  • 00:18:11.673 --> 00:18:14.776
  • People have been saying that to you, it's not a compliment.
  • 00:18:14.776 --> 00:18:23.852
  • Or you could choose to take a let's pray moment.
  • 00:18:23.852 --> 00:18:27.156
  • I wouldn't ask for permission to pray.
  • 00:18:27.156 --> 00:18:30.392
  • If you do that, you really give away all of your opportunity.
  • 00:18:30.392 --> 00:18:34.296
  • You're asking--in the majority of the cases, you're really
  • 00:18:34.296 --> 00:18:37.533
  • Extending that invitation to someone who probably doesn't
  • 00:18:37.533 --> 00:18:39.701
  • Understand, who doesn't value prayer.
  • 00:18:39.701 --> 00:18:41.770
  • You're kind of declaring yourself on the side
  • 00:18:41.770 --> 00:18:44.006
  • Of something.
  • 00:18:44.006 --> 00:18:46.175
  • So it makes it important that this isn't a long prayer.
  • 00:18:46.175 --> 00:18:48.477
  • It doesn't draw attention to you, it isn't about you.
  • 00:18:48.477 --> 00:18:51.780
  • You're gonna offer this prayer in a way that could be conducted
  • 00:18:51.780 --> 00:18:54.416
  • In the middle of a grocery store, while you're pumping gas.
  • 00:18:54.416 --> 00:18:59.321
  • And the people that were observing you wouldn't even know
  • 00:18:59.321 --> 00:19:01.423
  • You had prayed, only the person with whom you have had
  • 00:19:01.423 --> 00:19:05.027
  • The prayer.
  • 00:19:05.027 --> 00:19:06.762
  • So this is a minimalist approach.
  • 00:19:06.762 --> 00:19:08.430
  • I know there are times for different approaches, but this
  • 00:19:08.430 --> 00:19:11.133
  • Is a wonderful introduction.
  • 00:19:11.133 --> 00:19:12.534
  • It's a way to give god an invitation into the life of
  • 00:19:12.534 --> 00:19:14.703
  • Someone, as opposed to being passive.
  • 00:19:14.703 --> 00:19:19.908
  • Remember, the context is somebody that needs a god
  • 00:19:19.908 --> 00:19:21.944
  • Outcome that we can't deliver.
  • 00:19:21.944 --> 00:19:23.345
  • This isn't, "oh, i know somebody that can fix that."
  • 00:19:23.345 --> 00:19:27.549
  • This is the recognition that we really need a power
  • 00:19:27.549 --> 00:19:29.751
  • Beyond ourselves.
  • 00:19:29.751 --> 00:19:31.119
  • This is moses running from a snake.
  • 00:19:31.119 --> 00:19:32.487
  • This is jesus saying, "go into all the world.
  • 00:19:32.487 --> 00:19:36.058
  • I'll give you what you need."
  • 00:19:36.058 --> 00:19:39.461
  • "heavenly father, nothing is impossible for you.
  • 00:19:39.461 --> 00:19:41.597
  • We ask for your intervention, let your power and grace be made
  • 00:19:41.597 --> 00:19:45.100
  • Evident, in jesus' name, amen."
  • 00:19:45.100 --> 00:19:48.170
  • You've given god permission.
  • 00:19:48.170 --> 00:19:50.973
  • And after you pray that little prayer, don't stand and watch.
  • 00:19:50.973 --> 00:19:56.311
  • This is not about us, folks.
  • 00:19:56.311 --> 00:19:59.982
  • You with me?
  • 00:19:59.982 --> 00:20:01.350
  • Don't give them that christian stink eye thing we do, you know?
  • 00:20:01.350 --> 00:20:04.286
  • You pray for somebody, you go--.
  • 00:20:04.286 --> 00:20:11.460
  • You creep me out.
  • 00:20:11.460 --> 00:20:15.530
  • Just pray as if that is as normal as saying jesus is
  • 00:20:15.530 --> 00:20:21.169
  • The lord.
  • 00:20:21.169 --> 00:20:24.106
  • Just keep moving.
  • 00:20:24.106 --> 00:20:26.475
  • I can't emphasize this enough.
  • 00:20:26.475 --> 00:20:28.710
  • If you make it about yourself, you make it almost impossible
  • 00:20:28.710 --> 00:20:31.780
  • For god to be involved.
  • 00:20:31.780 --> 00:20:36.718
  • You know, don't say, you know, "in my church, we believe in
  • 00:20:36.718 --> 00:20:38.787
  • Anointing with oil."
  • 00:20:38.787 --> 00:20:41.390
  • You know, you're in the middle of your christmas party.
  • 00:20:41.390 --> 00:20:43.925
  • Maybe it's your family, or thanksgiving.
  • 00:20:43.925 --> 00:20:46.662
  • Somebody says they're gonna--"oh, my pastor told me
  • 00:20:46.662 --> 00:20:51.667
  • About you!
  • 00:20:51.667 --> 00:20:53.001
  • This is a divine moment.
  • 00:20:53.001 --> 00:20:56.371
  • You know, we believe in anointing.
  • 00:20:56.371 --> 00:20:57.739
  • Is there any oil in the house? i don't want olive oil.
  • 00:20:57.739 --> 00:21:02.444
  • I use 10w-40.
  • 00:21:02.444 --> 00:21:03.812
  • I want the heavy stuff.
  • 00:21:03.812 --> 00:21:09.451
  • In fact, this is a big problem.
  • 00:21:09.451 --> 00:21:10.819
  • Let's get grease."
  • 00:21:10.819 --> 00:21:14.456
  • Stop it.
  • 00:21:14.456 --> 00:21:17.259
  • It isn't about us.
  • 00:21:17.259 --> 00:21:20.629
  • I'm not a beginner anymore.
  • 00:21:20.629 --> 00:21:23.665
  • I'm not finished, but i've been around a bit.
  • 00:21:23.665 --> 00:21:29.304
  • And we tend to wanna make it about us.
  • 00:21:29.304 --> 00:21:32.107
  • This is a quiet, gentle invitation, because somebody had
  • 00:21:32.107 --> 00:21:36.244
  • Enough courage in a public setting to acknowledge
  • 00:21:36.244 --> 00:21:39.081
  • They're desperate.
  • 00:21:39.081 --> 00:21:40.882
  • Now, don't humiliate them.
  • 00:21:40.882 --> 00:21:45.087
  • Just very quietly say, you know, "let's pray."
  • 00:21:45.087 --> 00:21:48.056
  • And if it's a setting where to pray with them would be
  • 00:21:48.056 --> 00:21:50.325
  • Completely inappropriate, if you have an ally in that space, if
  • 00:21:50.325 --> 00:21:53.729
  • There's another believer, maybe you step aside with them and
  • 00:21:53.729 --> 00:21:56.331
  • Say, "let's pray."
  • 00:21:56.331 --> 00:21:59.101
  • And you take that little--put it in your phone.
  • 00:21:59.101 --> 00:22:02.471
  • Like, i give you permission.
  • 00:22:02.471 --> 00:22:03.839
  • When that moment comes, say, "listen, i've got a prayer.
  • 00:22:03.839 --> 00:22:05.207
  • I gotta get my phone.
  • 00:22:05.207 --> 00:22:06.541
  • It's in my phone.
  • 00:22:06.541 --> 00:22:07.876
  • My crazy pastor gave it to me."
  • 00:22:07.876 --> 00:22:12.547
  • Read that little prayer.
  • 00:22:12.547 --> 00:22:14.416
  • Lead with your faith.
  • 00:22:14.416 --> 00:22:17.853
  • Stop being upset because you didn't get the recipe you wanted
  • 00:22:17.853 --> 00:22:21.256
  • Or somebody didn't cook your favorite dish or you didn't like
  • 00:22:21.256 --> 00:22:24.092
  • The way you were seated or somebody wore your outfit to the
  • 00:22:24.092 --> 00:22:28.563
  • Same party.
  • 00:22:28.563 --> 00:22:30.766
  • Stop.
  • 00:22:30.766 --> 00:22:34.836
  • Lead with your faith.
  • 00:22:34.836 --> 00:22:36.905
  • Let's read that little prayer together.
  • 00:22:36.905 --> 00:22:43.845
  • "heavenly father, nothing is impossible for you.
  • 00:22:43.845 --> 00:22:47.849
  • We ask for your intervention, let your power and grace be made
  • 00:22:47.849 --> 00:22:52.487

  • I commission you in the name of the father and the son and the
  • 00:22:59.661 --> 00:23:04.599
  • Holy spirit to lead with your faith.
  • 00:23:04.599 --> 00:23:08.837
  • Not to be church attenders, not to be moralists, not to be
  • 00:23:08.837 --> 00:23:13.742
  • Ethicist, not to evaluate the spiritual condition of others.
  • 00:23:13.742 --> 00:23:18.513
  • To lead with your faith.
  • 00:23:18.513 --> 00:23:22.717
  • Won't you stand with me?
  • 00:23:22.717 --> 00:23:29.291
  • Let's use that little prayer.
  • 00:23:32.961 --> 00:23:35.230
  • I always say it's a quaker prayer.
  • 00:23:35.230 --> 00:23:36.665
  • I hope that's true.
  • 00:23:36.665 --> 00:23:38.033
  • That's the way i learned it.
  • 00:23:38.033 --> 00:23:39.367
  • If not, may the quakers forgive me.
  • 00:23:39.367 --> 00:23:41.903
  • But you'll use your hands.
  • 00:23:41.903 --> 00:23:43.271
  • If you've never raised your hands in church, you can just
  • 00:23:43.271 --> 00:23:44.840
  • About half down here.
  • 00:23:44.840 --> 00:23:47.642
  • They won't be on camera.
  • 00:23:47.642 --> 00:23:48.977
  • You can deny it.
  • 00:23:48.977 --> 00:23:51.179
  • We're gonna start with our hands down, we're gonna give to the
  • 00:23:51.179 --> 00:23:53.148
  • Lord all of our reluctance.
  • 00:23:53.148 --> 00:23:55.250
  • Honestly, we're gonna tell him we're sorry for all the years we
  • 00:23:55.250 --> 00:23:57.686
  • Haven't led with our faith.
  • 00:23:57.686 --> 00:23:59.955
  • We've imagined that we were the best fisher people or the best
  • 00:23:59.955 --> 00:24:02.591
  • Hunters or the best bowlers or the best cooks or the best
  • 00:24:02.591 --> 00:24:07.195
  • Parents, we've been the best vacationers.
  • 00:24:07.195 --> 00:24:10.198
  • We've had all sorts of things where we would boast about
  • 00:24:10.198 --> 00:24:12.100
  • Our accomplishments.
  • 00:24:12.100 --> 00:24:13.468
  • But our faith has been a private matter.
  • 00:24:13.468 --> 00:24:16.738
  • It's useless.
  • 00:24:16.738 --> 00:24:19.808
  • We're gonna tell the lord we're sorry.
  • 00:24:19.808 --> 00:24:22.310
  • Then we'll turn our hands up to receive the assignment.
  • 00:24:22.310 --> 00:24:26.481

  • Lord, if not implicitly, we've done it with our silence.
  • 00:24:48.270 --> 00:24:51.306
  • We've acted like we didn't notice.
  • 00:24:51.306 --> 00:24:53.775
