  • And now he has given us an assignment.
  • 00:00:01.458 --> 00:00:03.927
  • And that assignment is to spread the gospel all over the world.
  • 00:00:03.927 --> 00:00:08.532
  • So today we get to celebrate jesus.
  • 00:00:08.532 --> 00:00:11.701
  • Before daniel opened his mouth, he opened a scroll
  • 00:00:11.701 --> 00:00:15.872
  • Before daniel came to the lord.
  • 00:00:16.606 --> 00:00:18.408
  • Just asking, asking, asking.
  • 00:00:18.408 --> 00:00:20.644
  • He printed.
  • 00:00:20.644 --> 00:00:24.381
  • It still needs to be preached today.
  • 00:00:24.381 --> 00:00:26.950
  • We serve a good god who loves you.
  • 00:00:26.950 --> 00:00:29.686
  • But we need to learn true repentance.
  • 00:00:29.686 --> 00:00:32.856
  • And so let me ask you this question.
  • 00:00:32.856 --> 00:00:34.091
  • Why is it important to pray?
  • 00:00:34.091 --> 00:00:37.127
  • Do you know the answer?
  • 00:00:37.127 --> 00:00:38.695
  • If i were to ask you if you were to write down the answer,
  • 00:00:38.695 --> 00:00:40.797
  • What would you write down at this very moment?
  • 00:00:40.797 --> 00:00:42.365
  • Why is it important to pray?
  • 00:00:42.365 --> 00:00:44.634
  • Now we know the concept of prayer.
  • 00:00:44.634 --> 00:00:46.770
  • Prayer is communication with the good father.
  • 00:00:46.770 --> 00:00:49.473
  • Okay?
  • 00:00:49.473 --> 00:00:50.707
  • Prayer is communication with jesus, the holy spirit.
  • 00:00:50.707 --> 00:00:52.609
  • And god listens to your prayers.
  • 00:00:52.609 --> 00:00:54.411
  • And so our hearts get closer to the lord every time we pray.
  • 00:00:54.411 --> 00:00:58.115
  • But i also want you to understand
  • 00:00:58.115 --> 00:00:59.916
  • Every time you pray, you send heaven into action.
  • 00:00:59.916 --> 00:01:03.920
  • You send heaven into action.
  • 00:01:04.554 --> 00:01:06.022
  • Because i'm telling you,
  • 00:01:06.022 --> 00:01:07.190
  • There are a lot of demonic strongholds attacking
  • 00:01:07.190 --> 00:01:10.393
  • Your prayer life and everything that god has for you.
  • 00:01:10.393 --> 00:01:14.531
  • And it's very easy to give up.
  • 00:01:14.531 --> 00:01:17.334
  • It's very easy to stop praying.
  • 00:01:17.334 --> 00:01:20.403
  • And i realized the hardest challenge about praying is this.
  • 00:01:20.403 --> 00:01:22.973
  • It's just the waiting.
  • 00:01:22.973 --> 00:01:26.009
  • Like, how many of you just can't stand the waiting?
  • 00:01:26.009 --> 00:01:28.645
  • God, i've been praying.
  • 00:01:28.645 --> 00:01:30.647
  • What's my answer?
  • 00:01:30.647 --> 00:01:32.182
  • God, i kept praying, but where is the answer
  • 00:01:32.182 --> 00:01:35.051
  • That i'm looking for?
  • 00:01:35.051 --> 00:01:35.852
  • And right now it's father's day.
  • 00:01:35.852 --> 00:01:38.088
  • So let me speak to the dads in the room.
  • 00:01:38.088 --> 00:01:39.856
  • Maybe that's where you are.
  • 00:01:39.856 --> 00:01:41.992
  • The dads watching online today.
  • 00:01:41.992 --> 00:01:43.426
  • Maybe you have been praying,
  • 00:01:43.426 --> 00:01:44.661
  • God, god, i would really like that job right now
  • 00:01:44.661 --> 00:01:48.498
  • Because i'm tired of feeling like i can't provide
  • 00:01:48.498 --> 00:01:50.367
  • For my family and i'm trying my best.
  • 00:01:50.367 --> 00:01:53.003
  • I'm working so hard, i'm tired and i don't know where to go.
  • 00:01:53.003 --> 00:01:56.139
  • God, can you just say it to me?
  • 00:01:56.139 --> 00:01:58.575
  • God, i'm praying for restoration over my family.
  • 00:01:58.575 --> 00:02:01.044
  • My family has been torn apart.
  • 00:02:01.044 --> 00:02:04.681
  • My marriage has been torn apart.
  • 00:02:04.681 --> 00:02:06.583
  • All these things are happening.
  • 00:02:06.583 --> 00:02:07.717
  • Can you just trust me?
  • 00:02:07.717 --> 00:02:08.852
  • Me here because i'm suffering.
  • 00:02:08.852 --> 00:02:11.821
  • Maybe you're praying over your mind.
  • 00:02:11.821 --> 00:02:14.357
  • It's been a long time since you've had rest.
  • 00:02:14.357 --> 00:02:16.092
  • And your mind just feels attacked over
  • 00:02:16.092 --> 00:02:17.694
  • And over and over again.
  • 00:02:17.694 --> 00:02:18.962
  • God, when would you bring peace on my mind?
  • 00:02:18.962 --> 00:02:22.232
  • And sometimes it just feels like we're sitting
  • 00:02:22.232 --> 00:02:24.467
  • And we're just waiting.
  • 00:02:24.467 --> 00:02:26.069
  • And in the waiting, sometimes the devil lies.
  • 00:02:26.069 --> 00:02:28.371
  • Or our flesh will lie to us and tell us god's not listening.
  • 00:02:28.371 --> 00:02:33.343
  • That is far from true.
  • 00:02:33.910 --> 00:02:36.446
  • And i want to share with you today
  • 00:02:36.446 --> 00:02:38.682
  • The truth, the biblical truth
  • 00:02:38.682 --> 00:02:39.783
  • That would change your perception.
  • 00:02:39.783 --> 00:02:40.884
  • Because in your prayer life, what if it's this?
  • 00:02:40.884 --> 00:02:43.720
  • What if every time you pray hell is coming up against you?
  • 00:02:43.720 --> 00:02:47.557
  • What if hell is actually trying to stop
  • 00:02:48.558 --> 00:02:51.061
  • What heaven has already unleashed on you?
  • 00:02:51.061 --> 00:02:54.965
  • See, there's something really cool.
  • 00:02:54.965 --> 00:02:55.999
  • We've been in the book of daniel, right?
  • 00:02:55.999 --> 00:02:57.734
  • And daniel has been praying.
  • 00:02:57.734 --> 00:03:00.070
  • And daniel, chapter ten has been praying for 21 days,
  • 00:03:00.070 --> 00:03:02.272
  • Three weeks. he's been waiting on the lord.
  • 00:03:02.272 --> 00:03:04.274
  • He's asking god to give him an answer,
  • 00:03:04.274 --> 00:03:07.277
  • But it feels like god isn't showing up
  • 00:03:07.277 --> 00:03:08.979
  • Until finally an angel comes to him and reveals to him
  • 00:03:08.979 --> 00:03:12.916
  • This truth.
  • 00:03:12.916 --> 00:03:13.850
  • I want you to listen to this today,
  • 00:03:13.850 --> 00:03:15.518
  • Daniel chapter ten, verse 12.
  • 00:03:15.518 --> 00:03:17.921
  • Then he said, talking about the angel, don't be afraid, daniel,
  • 00:03:17.921 --> 00:03:22.459
  • Since the first day you began to pray for understood
  • 00:03:22.459 --> 00:03:26.529
  • Standing and to humble yourself before your god,
  • 00:03:26.529 --> 00:03:29.666
  • Your request has been heard in heaven.
  • 00:03:29.666 --> 00:03:33.536
  • Did you hear that?
  • 00:03:33.536 --> 00:03:35.205
  • Since the very first day, daniel, you've humbled yourself.
  • 00:03:35.205 --> 00:03:40.043
  • Get on your knees and pray to the lord
  • 00:03:40.043 --> 00:03:43.046
  • Having heard your prayers.
  • 00:03:43.046 --> 00:03:46.316
  • In fact, the bible talks about our prayers
  • 00:03:46.316 --> 00:03:48.585
  • Being a special incense, a fragrance
  • 00:03:48.585 --> 00:03:51.554
  • Before the throne of god.
  • 00:03:51.554 --> 00:03:53.556
  • He is pleased with your prayers and he heard it on the very
  • 00:03:53.556 --> 00:03:56.593
  • First day.
  • 00:03:56.593 --> 00:03:58.461
  • But daniel's been waiting, right?
  • 00:03:59.262 --> 00:04:01.531
  • He's been waiting for three weeks,
  • 00:04:01.531 --> 00:04:04.167
  • The angel said.
  • 00:04:04.167 --> 00:04:05.402
  • I've come to answer your prayer, but look at this.
  • 00:04:05.402 --> 00:04:06.369
  • Verse 13, but for 21 days the spirit
  • 00:04:06.369 --> 00:04:12.108
  • Prince of the kingdom of persia blocked my way.
  • 00:04:12.108 --> 00:04:17.213
  • It is not a coincidence that we were at this scripture today.
  • 00:04:17.213 --> 00:04:21.184
  • Have you been paying attention?
  • 00:04:21.918 --> 00:04:23.887
  • We have been in the book of daniel,
  • 00:04:23.887 --> 00:04:25.255
  • Going by chapter from chapter to chapter.
  • 00:04:25.255 --> 00:04:28.391
  • And today we're in chapter nine, in chapter ten.
  • 00:04:28.391 --> 00:04:31.594
  • And we see right here that there is a demonic principality,
  • 00:04:31.594 --> 00:04:36.066
  • A demon that is over the region of persia
  • 00:04:36.066 --> 00:04:39.736
  • That is blocking the answer that is coming to daniel.
  • 00:04:39.736 --> 00:04:43.440
  • Persia is modern day iran.
  • 00:04:43.440 --> 00:04:46.876
  • You see what i'm saying here?
  • 00:04:47.544 --> 00:04:48.878
  • Have you been paying attention to the news?
  • 00:04:48.878 --> 00:04:50.947
  • What is happening right now?
  • 00:04:50.947 --> 00:04:52.849
  • Okay.
  • 00:04:52.849 --> 00:04:53.817
  • Israel's objective is to prevent iran
  • 00:04:53.817 --> 00:04:56.720
  • From becoming a nuclear threat.
  • 00:04:56.720 --> 00:04:59.789
  • Why? because the same demon that daniel is revealing to us
  • 00:04:59.789 --> 00:05:04.694
  • Today is the same demon that is over the land of iran.
  • 00:05:04.694 --> 00:05:10.367
  • And they have openly expressed how they want to annihilate
  • 00:05:10.367 --> 00:05:14.471
  • Israel and take out completely the jewish people.
  • 00:05:14.471 --> 00:05:18.541
  • This is a demon over the land of iran.
  • 00:05:18.541 --> 00:05:22.812
  • Islamic extremists have vowed
  • 00:05:22.812 --> 00:05:25.882
  • To not only take out the jews, but listen to attack america
  • 00:05:25.882 --> 00:05:29.886
  • And to attack
  • 00:05:30.286 --> 00:05:31.521
  • Christians because we follow and believe and worship
  • 00:05:31.521 --> 00:05:35.158
  • The jewish messiah, jesus christ,
  • 00:05:35.158 --> 00:05:38.328
  • The son of god.
  • 00:05:38.328 --> 00:05:41.831
  • I'm telling you, it's not a coincidence
  • 00:05:41.831 --> 00:05:43.333
  • That we're here today, that we're in this part of a daniel.
  • 00:05:43.333 --> 00:05:48.204
  • Daniel was allowing us to see the spiritual warfare
  • 00:05:48.204 --> 00:05:51.174
  • That is happening.
  • 00:05:51.174 --> 00:05:52.242
  • It's what we're seeing today.
  • 00:05:52.242 --> 00:05:55.945
  • And so the angel said again, for 21 days, the spirit
  • 00:05:55.945 --> 00:05:58.481
  • Prince of the kingdom of persia blocked my way.
  • 00:05:58.481 --> 00:06:01.017
  • Then michael, one of the archangels, came
  • 00:06:01.017 --> 00:06:04.354
  • To help me, and i left him there with the spirit prince.
  • 00:06:04.354 --> 00:06:08.725
  • The kingdom of persia.
  • 00:06:09.292 --> 00:06:10.460
  • So this is a pretty crazy information.
  • 00:06:10.460 --> 00:06:12.462
  • The angel was now telling daniel.
  • 00:06:12.462 --> 00:06:13.963
  • Daniel, we heard your prayers
  • 00:06:13.963 --> 00:06:16.433
  • From the very beginning, but there's
  • 00:06:16.433 --> 00:06:17.834
  • Spiritual warfare going on.
  • 00:06:17.834 --> 00:06:19.402
  • And so we had to fight
  • 00:06:19.402 --> 00:06:20.637
  • This demon because big things are coming after you.
  • 00:06:20.637 --> 00:06:24.674
  • So i started to think,
  • 00:06:24.674 --> 00:06:26.743
  • Because we pray.
  • 00:06:27.210 --> 00:06:29.078
  • And again, the hardest part is in the waiting.
  • 00:06:29.078 --> 00:06:31.514
  • But listen, just because you haven't
  • 00:06:31.514 --> 00:06:32.816
  • Received an answer yet doesn't mean it's a no from god.
  • 00:06:32.816 --> 00:06:36.286
  • Okay?
  • 00:06:36.553 --> 00:06:37.921
  • If god is telling you, you know he's going to make it clear.
  • 00:06:37.921 --> 00:06:39.823
  • He's going to bring confirmation into your life.
  • 00:06:39.823 --> 00:06:41.524
  • You're going to know that it goes against his character.
  • 00:06:41.524 --> 00:06:43.226
  • It goes against his word. it's just not right for you.
  • 00:06:43.226 --> 00:06:45.595
  • But sometimes as we sit there, it's not a no.
  • 00:06:45.595 --> 00:06:48.398
  • It's just a wait.
  • 00:06:48.398 --> 00:06:50.600
  • And again, heaven has released the answer.
  • 00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:53.570
  • But maybe hell is fighting the answer against you.
  • 00:06:53.570 --> 00:06:56.840
  • It is not a time to stop praying.
  • 00:06:56.840 --> 00:07:00.677
  • It is not a time to give up and to walk away.
  • 00:07:00.677 --> 00:07:02.679
  • Because that's exactly what the devil wants in your life.
  • 00:07:02.679 --> 00:07:05.448
  • It is a time
  • 00:07:05.448 --> 00:07:06.616
  • To get on your knees and say, god, meet me here.
  • 00:07:06.616 --> 00:07:09.018
  • I know you can.
  • 00:07:09.018 --> 00:07:11.554
  • Was the last time you did that?
  • 00:07:12.288 --> 00:07:15.625
  • When's the last time you truly humbled yourself
  • 00:07:15.625 --> 00:07:17.660
  • Before the lord?
  • 00:07:17.660 --> 00:07:18.895
  • I'm not talking about a prayer right before you eat.
  • 00:07:18.895 --> 00:07:21.331
  • There's so many times we go.
  • 00:07:21.965 --> 00:07:23.266
  • We go through the struggles and we're like, god, just.
  • 00:07:23.266 --> 00:07:24.601
  • Just make me again, okay?
  • 00:07:24.601 --> 00:07:25.802
  • Love you. by.
  • 00:07:25.802 --> 00:07:29.205
  • 21 days,
  • 00:07:29.539 --> 00:07:31.908
  • Daniel said, i will not eat.
  • 00:07:31.908 --> 00:07:34.377
  • I will not walk away from your presence
  • 00:07:34.377 --> 00:07:36.479
  • Until i understand the meaning of the vision
  • 00:07:36.479 --> 00:07:39.048
  • That you have shown me in a dream.
  • 00:07:39.048 --> 00:07:42.418
  • This is how we fight spiritual warfare.
  • 00:07:43.353 --> 00:07:46.589
  • This is what we see.
  • 00:07:46.589 --> 00:07:49.225
  • And so sometimes again, hell is trying to stop.
  • 00:07:49.225 --> 00:07:51.094
  • But heaven has released. but don't you worry.
  • 00:07:51.094 --> 00:07:53.129
  • Jesus gave us words of encouragement and hope.
  • 00:07:53.129 --> 00:07:56.733
  • You know what jesus said to us?
  • 00:07:56.733 --> 00:07:58.535
  • We said this to peter in matthew chapter
  • 00:07:58.535 --> 00:08:00.904
  • 16, verses 15 through 18.
  • 00:08:00.904 --> 00:08:04.073
  • Then he asked him, but who do you say that i am?
  • 00:08:04.073 --> 00:08:07.844
  • And simon peter answered, you are the messiah,
  • 00:08:07.844 --> 00:08:10.914
  • The son of the living god.
  • 00:08:11.548 --> 00:08:13.216
  • Jesus replied, you are blessed, simon, son of john,
  • 00:08:13.216 --> 00:08:16.653
  • Because the father in heaven has revealed this to you.
  • 00:08:16.653 --> 00:08:20.023
  • You did not learn this from any human being,
  • 00:08:20.023 --> 00:08:24.193
  • Meaning the spirit of god will reveal mysteries to you.
  • 00:08:24.193 --> 00:08:28.298
  • Understand revelations on the inside.
  • 00:08:28.298 --> 00:08:31.968
  • But listen to this.
  • 00:08:31.968 --> 00:08:33.603
  • Then jesus said, now i say to you that you are peter,
  • 00:08:33.603 --> 00:08:36.906
  • Which means rock.
  • 00:08:36.906 --> 00:08:38.608
  • And upon this rock i will build my church.
  • 00:08:38.608 --> 00:08:43.746
  • Okay, not upon peter as a person when he says the rock.
  • 00:08:43.746 --> 00:08:48.518
  • What he means by saying the rock,
  • 00:08:48.518 --> 00:08:50.086
  • He means the confession that came out of peter's
  • 00:08:50.086 --> 00:08:54.023
  • Mouth, his confession and confession
  • 00:08:54.023 --> 00:08:56.993
  • That jesus christ is the messiah and the son of god.
  • 00:08:56.993 --> 00:09:01.164
  • Upon that revelation, upon that truth,
  • 00:09:01.164 --> 00:09:04.834
  • I will build my church and listen to this,
  • 00:09:04.834 --> 00:09:07.270
  • And all the powers of hell will not be able to conquer it.
  • 00:09:07.270 --> 00:09:11.908
  • Did you hear that?
  • 00:09:12.408 --> 00:09:14.677
  • This is not a motivational quote.
  • 00:09:14.677 --> 00:09:17.914
  • This is biblical truth for your life.
  • 00:09:17.914 --> 00:09:21.017
  • The devil cannot stop what god has planned for your life.
  • 00:09:21.017 --> 00:09:25.622
  • Demons cannot rip apart what god has poured over you.
  • 00:09:25.622 --> 00:09:29.726
  • The holy spirit will protect your mind and your heart,
  • 00:09:29.726 --> 00:09:33.262
  • But you have to believe it
  • 00:09:33.262 --> 00:09:34.998
  • In order to step into the promise,
  • 00:09:34.998 --> 00:09:37.133
  • Because you never step into a promise you don't believe.
  • 00:09:37.133 --> 00:09:41.070
  • So stop believing the demons that are coming after your mind.
  • 00:09:41.070 --> 00:09:44.374
  • God is not playing games with the devil.
  • 00:09:44.374 --> 00:09:47.610
  • It is not equal.
  • 00:09:48.077 --> 00:09:49.979
  • The lord's will will be done.
  • 00:09:49.979 --> 00:09:51.347
  • All he has to do with speak it.
  • 00:09:51.347 --> 00:09:52.548
  • It happens and no demon can stop it.
  • 00:09:52.548 --> 00:09:56.886
  • So the title of today's message is this the battle?
  • 00:09:56.886 --> 00:10:00.923
  • You can't see?
  • 00:10:00.923 --> 00:10:02.558
  • There is a battle
  • 00:10:03.059 --> 00:10:04.293
  • Happening in your life right now that you cannot see.
  • 00:10:04.293 --> 00:10:08.131
  • And this is where you trust god.
  • 00:10:08.131 --> 00:10:10.233
  • Okay, so do me a favor.
  • 00:10:10.233 --> 00:10:11.267
  • Look to somebody next to you
  • 00:10:11.267 --> 00:10:12.535
  • And tell them just because you can't see god working.
  • 00:10:12.535 --> 00:10:15.772
  • But come on, we can say loud
  • 00:10:16.406 --> 00:10:18.307
  • Just because you can't see god working,
  • 00:10:18.307 --> 00:10:21.377
  • It doesn't mean that god's not working
  • 00:10:21.377 --> 00:10:25.415
  • Right.
  • 00:10:25.715 --> 00:10:26.749
  • How many of you need that truth today?
  • 00:10:26.749 --> 00:10:29.018
  • Right?
  • 00:10:29.018 --> 00:10:30.053
  • Just because you can't see it happening
  • 00:10:30.053 --> 00:10:31.788
  • Doesn't mean that god's not working behind the scenes.
  • 00:10:31.788 --> 00:10:34.757
  • He is still doing something incredible in your life.
  • 00:10:34.757 --> 00:10:37.560
  • And so if you have your bibles,
  • 00:10:37.560 --> 00:10:38.561
  • You can turn to daniel chapter nine.
  • 00:10:38.561 --> 00:10:40.229
  • Today we're going to be in chapter nine and chapter ten.
  • 00:10:40.229 --> 00:10:43.399
  • Okay.
  • 00:10:43.666 --> 00:10:45.034
  • And we are continuing our series titled thrones and beast,
  • 00:10:45.034 --> 00:10:47.804
  • And we've been taking a deep dive
  • 00:10:47.804 --> 00:10:49.305
  • Into the entire book of daniel, learning
  • 00:10:49.305 --> 00:10:51.708
  • What it means to have incredible faith through difficult times.
  • 00:10:51.708 --> 00:10:54.410
  • And i'm excited and kind of sad about this.
  • 00:10:54.410 --> 00:10:56.846
  • Next week is going to be my last sermon for this series
  • 00:10:56.846 --> 00:11:00.650
  • Is where the oil is. come in.
  • 00:11:00.650 --> 00:11:01.818
  • Okay, it's fine, but i'm glad you guys enjoyed it.
  • 00:11:01.818 --> 00:11:03.753
  • I get really invested
  • 00:11:03.753 --> 00:11:05.188
  • In these biblical stories
  • 00:11:05.188 --> 00:11:06.456
  • And sometimes i feel like it's the end of the movie.
  • 00:11:06.456 --> 00:11:08.725
  • But god always has more, okay?
  • 00:11:08.725 --> 00:11:10.460
  • God always has more.
  • 00:11:10.460 --> 00:11:11.761
  • And so, we're seeing this here, but here's what i want
  • 00:11:11.761 --> 00:11:14.430
  • You guys to realize next week.
  • 00:11:14.430 --> 00:11:15.965
  • Again, it's god's perfect timing.
  • 00:11:15.965 --> 00:11:17.800
  • We're going to be talking fully about the end days.
  • 00:11:17.800 --> 00:11:20.703
  • Okay.
  • 00:11:20.703 --> 00:11:21.738
  • As we finish the, the book of daniel,
  • 00:11:21.738 --> 00:11:23.773
  • We're going to be talking fully about the end days.
  • 00:11:23.773 --> 00:11:26.776
  • And so let's start with chapter nine today.
  • 00:11:26.776 --> 00:11:29.078
  • Point number one is this claire city
  • 00:11:29.078 --> 00:11:31.781
  • In your life comes from what?
  • 00:11:32.448 --> 00:11:35.718
  • Surrender. okay.
  • 00:11:35.718 --> 00:11:38.421
  • The thing you've been praying for, the answer you need from
  • 00:11:38.421 --> 00:11:43.092
  • The lord will not come into your life,
  • 00:11:43.092 --> 00:11:46.329
  • Will not be revealed to you if you are full of pride.
  • 00:11:46.329 --> 00:11:50.166
  • Okay?
  • 00:11:50.433 --> 00:11:51.400
  • If you try to control it yourself.
  • 00:11:51.400 --> 00:11:52.969
  • Before daniel ever received a vision
  • 00:11:52.969 --> 00:11:57.106
  • From the lord, that prophetic vision
  • 00:11:57.106 --> 00:11:59.208
  • Over the future before daniel received any clarity
  • 00:11:59.208 --> 00:12:03.346
  • Or an answer from god, he came into the lord's presence
  • 00:12:03.346 --> 00:12:07.517
  • And he humbled himself.
  • 00:12:07.517 --> 00:12:11.020
  • He repented of his sins.
  • 00:12:11.020 --> 00:12:14.090
  • And i think that's really powerful
  • 00:12:14.090 --> 00:12:15.324
  • Because out of the old testament,
  • 00:12:15.324 --> 00:12:17.293
  • You know,
  • 00:12:17.293 --> 00:12:18.594
  • Daniel is one of those guys that really did a lot right.
  • 00:12:18.594 --> 00:12:20.830
  • There's not much wrong in daniel's life that we know of,
  • 00:12:20.830 --> 00:12:23.399
  • But he's looking at his own life, evaluating his own life.
  • 00:12:23.399 --> 00:12:26.169
  • He's sitting there and he's asking god, me, me,
  • 00:12:26.169 --> 00:12:29.205
  • Forgive me. why?
  • 00:12:29.672 --> 00:12:32.542
  • There's a reason.
  • 00:12:33.042 --> 00:12:34.277
  • So let's read it together.
  • 00:12:34.277 --> 00:12:35.444
  • Daniel chapter nine, verses one through eight.
  • 00:12:35.444 --> 00:12:37.914
  • It was the first year, the reign of darius the mede,
  • 00:12:37.914 --> 00:12:41.217
  • The son of hazaras.
  • 00:12:41.217 --> 00:12:44.086
  • Has auroras.
  • 00:12:44.086 --> 00:12:44.987
  • Almost sounds like a dinosaur.
  • 00:12:44.987 --> 00:12:46.088
  • I don't know if i'm saying that. right.
  • 00:12:46.088 --> 00:12:47.356
  • Who became king of the babylonians
  • 00:12:47.356 --> 00:12:50.226
  • During the first year of the reign?
  • 00:12:50.226 --> 00:12:51.828
  • Okay, i, daniel, learned from reading
  • 00:12:51.828 --> 00:12:55.298
  • The word of the lord as revealed to jeremiah the prophet.
  • 00:12:55.298 --> 00:12:59.268
  • We underlined that right there.
  • 00:12:59.268 --> 00:13:01.537
  • I, daniel, learned from what
  • 00:13:01.537 --> 00:13:05.174
  • You want to change your life.
  • 00:13:05.842 --> 00:13:07.677
  • Pay attention to that.
  • 00:13:07.677 --> 00:13:09.278
  • I, daniel,
  • 00:13:09.278 --> 00:13:10.213
  • Received revelation from the lord
  • 00:13:10.213 --> 00:13:11.447
  • Because i was in the word of god.
  • 00:13:11.447 --> 00:13:13.783
  • I did not neglect the word of god
  • 00:13:13.783 --> 00:13:15.718
  • As revealed to jeremiah the prophet.
  • 00:13:15.718 --> 00:13:17.386
  • He's reading
  • 00:13:17.386 --> 00:13:18.721
  • The same book of jeremiah that we have in our bibles today,
  • 00:13:18.721 --> 00:13:21.824
  • And that it states this, that jerusalem the prophet spoke
  • 00:13:21.824 --> 00:13:25.394
  • And revealed that jerusalem must lie desolate for 70 years.
  • 00:13:25.394 --> 00:13:30.466
  • So i turned to the lord god
  • 00:13:31.133 --> 00:13:34.036
  • And pleaded with him in prayer and fasting.
  • 00:13:34.036 --> 00:13:37.607
  • And again daniel was taken at the age of 15 into captivity.
  • 00:13:37.607 --> 00:13:40.810
  • He could have been blaming god.
  • 00:13:40.810 --> 00:13:43.045
  • He is now much older.
  • 00:13:43.045 --> 00:13:44.280
  • He is in his 80s and he's understanding.
  • 00:13:44.280 --> 00:13:47.783
  • Hey, hey!
  • 00:13:47.783 --> 00:13:48.651
  • The prophet jeremiah spoke that
  • 00:13:48.651 --> 00:13:50.386
  • Captivity would take place for 70 years.
  • 00:13:50.386 --> 00:13:52.288
  • We're almost to that point of restoration.
  • 00:13:52.288 --> 00:13:55.591
  • It's almost to that point of our people going back
  • 00:13:55.591 --> 00:13:58.761
  • To our land for the nation of israel to be restored.
  • 00:13:58.761 --> 00:14:02.198
  • He knows that is close, even though it may not look
  • 00:14:02.198 --> 00:14:05.134
  • Like it. why?
  • 00:14:05.134 --> 00:14:06.269
  • Because he believes in the promises of god.
  • 00:14:06.269 --> 00:14:08.871
  • Because he's in the word of god, giving him hope.
  • 00:14:08.871 --> 00:14:12.041
  • And so i turn to the lord god
  • 00:14:12.708 --> 00:14:13.943
  • And pleaded with him in prayer and fasting.
  • 00:14:13.943 --> 00:14:15.811
  • I also wore rough burlap and sprinkled myself with ashes.
  • 00:14:15.811 --> 00:14:22.385
  • And i pray to the lord my god and confess, oh lord,
  • 00:14:22.385 --> 00:14:25.922
  • You are great.
  • 00:14:25.922 --> 00:14:28.557
  • You are an awesome god.
  • 00:14:29.158 --> 00:14:32.161
  • How did he start his prayer?
  • 00:14:32.161 --> 00:14:34.997
  • By praising the lord.
  • 00:14:34.997 --> 00:14:37.733
  • How do you start your prayer?
  • 00:14:37.733 --> 00:14:39.869
  • A lot of times we start our prayer by complaining.
  • 00:14:39.869 --> 00:14:43.072
  • We come into the presence of god.
  • 00:14:43.940 --> 00:14:45.408
  • Oh god, you haven't listened to me.
  • 00:14:45.408 --> 00:14:47.710
  • I don't have what i've been praying for.
  • 00:14:47.710 --> 00:14:49.478
  • I don't understand what this is happening.
  • 00:14:49.478 --> 00:14:51.514
  • The agony that i feel.
  • 00:14:51.514 --> 00:14:53.182
  • No, he felt a lot of it.
  • 00:14:53.182 --> 00:14:54.684
  • He's been through a lot of it.
  • 00:14:54.684 --> 00:14:57.887
  • You think, god, i worship you.
  • 00:14:57.887 --> 00:15:01.290
  • Daniel never goes back home.
  • 00:15:01.924 --> 00:15:05.094
  • Like crazy.
  • 00:15:05.494 --> 00:15:07.496
  • He never goes back to israel.
  • 00:15:07.496 --> 00:15:10.266
  • He stays here forever.
  • 00:15:10.266 --> 00:15:12.902
  • Yet he still worships the lord.
  • 00:15:12.902 --> 00:15:15.471
  • He sees that god is good.
  • 00:15:15.471 --> 00:15:16.672
  • And he also says this.
  • 00:15:16.672 --> 00:15:19.976
  • You. you always fulfill your covenant
  • 00:15:19.976 --> 00:15:22.845
  • And you keep your promises and unfailing
  • 00:15:22.845 --> 00:15:25.681
  • Love to those who love you and obey your commands.
  • 00:15:25.681 --> 00:15:28.718
  • I listen to this, but we have sinned,
  • 00:15:28.718 --> 00:15:31.320
  • We have sinned, and we have done wrong.
  • 00:15:32.321 --> 00:15:34.490
  • We have rebelled against you and scorned your commands
  • 00:15:34.490 --> 00:15:37.493
  • And your regulations.
  • 00:15:37.493 --> 00:15:39.028
  • We have refused to listen to your servants, the prophets,
  • 00:15:39.028 --> 00:15:42.598
  • Who spoke on your authority to our kings and princes
  • 00:15:42.598 --> 00:15:46.302
  • And ancestors, to all the people of the land.
  • 00:15:46.302 --> 00:15:50.406
  • God, we don't have an excuse.
  • 00:15:50.406 --> 00:15:53.242
  • The prophets were speaking,
  • 00:15:53.242 --> 00:15:55.878
  • But nobody was listening.
  • 00:15:55.878 --> 00:15:58.581
  • Nobody cared about the warnings you are revealing.
  • 00:15:58.581 --> 00:16:01.851
  • Because remember, every time
  • 00:16:01.851 --> 00:16:03.285
  • Judgment is about to come, god always sends a warning first.
  • 00:16:03.285 --> 00:16:07.757
  • But are you listening to that warning right now?
  • 00:16:07.757 --> 00:16:10.459
  • Are you getting your right, your life right with god?
  • 00:16:10.459 --> 00:16:13.696
  • And then he says this, lord, you are in the right.
  • 00:16:13.696 --> 00:16:17.600
  • But as you see, our faces are covered with shame.
  • 00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:21.137
  • And this is true of all of us, including the people of judah
  • 00:16:21.137 --> 00:16:24.173
  • And jerusalem
  • 00:16:24.173 --> 00:16:25.307
  • And all of israel, scattered near and far.
  • 00:16:25.307 --> 00:16:28.144
  • Wherever you have driven us beca
  • 00:16:28.144 --> 00:16:34.150
  • As a pastor, i see so many people that just, you know,
  • 00:16:35.351 --> 00:16:38.687
  • Say things like this why is god doing this?
  • 00:16:38.687 --> 00:16:41.791
  • Like, why?
  • 00:16:41.791 --> 00:16:42.925
  • Why is god allowing these things in my life?
  • 00:16:42.925 --> 00:16:43.959
  • It's almost like we just point the finger
  • 00:16:43.959 --> 00:16:45.194
  • God, god, god, god, god, it's all you.
  • 00:16:45.194 --> 00:16:46.829
  • No, no no no.
  • 00:16:46.829 --> 00:16:47.663
  • Daniel. understood. it's
  • 00:16:47.663 --> 00:16:50.633
  • It's us.
  • 00:16:50.633 --> 00:16:52.201
  • It's our nation.
  • 00:16:52.201 --> 00:16:53.636
  • We fell away from god.
  • 00:16:53.636 --> 00:16:55.604
  • We didn't listen to moses a long time ago when moses
  • 00:16:55.604 --> 00:16:58.908
  • Revealed, hey, we must always walk in obedience.
  • 00:16:58.908 --> 00:17:01.477
  • If we walk in obedience, we will be blessed as a nation.
  • 00:17:01.477 --> 00:17:04.980
  • But if you start to serve and worship other gods,
  • 00:17:04.980 --> 00:17:07.550
  • Then you will fall and you will crumble.
  • 00:17:07.550 --> 00:17:11.320
  • They forgot those words because it was.
  • 00:17:11.320 --> 00:17:13.289
  • It taught down the family.
  • 00:17:13.289 --> 00:17:17.760
  • And so on father's day.
  • 00:17:18.360 --> 00:17:21.530
  • Let me tell you this your job
  • 00:17:22.198 --> 00:17:25.267
  • As your simon.
  • 00:17:25.267 --> 00:17:27.903
  • Share the gospel with your family, with your children,
  • 00:17:27.903 --> 00:17:31.440
  • To pray even when it's hard to pray,
  • 00:17:31.440 --> 00:17:34.376
  • To give it over to the lord.
  • 00:17:34.376 --> 00:17:35.611
  • Even when you feel like you haven't got an answer.
  • 00:17:35.611 --> 00:17:37.413
  • And it has been three weeks,
  • 00:17:37.413 --> 00:17:40.449
  • That's the job.
  • 00:17:40.449 --> 00:17:42.852
  • That's what daniel was doing here, he says.
  • 00:17:42.852 --> 00:17:45.187
  • So, lord,
  • 00:17:45.187 --> 00:17:45.888
  • We, you know, kings,
  • 00:17:45.888 --> 00:17:47.089
  • Princes and ancestors are covered with shame
  • 00:17:47.089 --> 00:17:50.359
  • Because we have sinned against you.
  • 00:17:50.359 --> 00:17:53.329
  • Now this is the start of breakthrough.
  • 00:17:53.329 --> 00:17:56.899
  • Restoration is coming very near.
  • 00:17:57.633 --> 00:18:00.102
  • But how to break?
  • 00:18:00.102 --> 00:18:01.036
  • To start again.
  • 00:18:01.036 --> 00:18:03.372
  • What is daniel doing?
  • 00:18:03.372 --> 00:18:05.541
  • He's in the word of god.
  • 00:18:05.541 --> 00:18:09.211
  • He is convicted by the word of god
  • 00:18:09.211 --> 00:18:12.681
  • Before daniel opened his mouth, he opened a scroll
  • 00:18:12.681 --> 00:18:16.919
  • Before daniel came to the lord.
  • 00:18:17.653 --> 00:18:19.455
  • Just asking, asking, asking.
  • 00:18:19.455 --> 00:18:21.657
  • He printed.
  • 00:18:21.657 --> 00:18:24.193
  • It still needs to be preached today.
  • 00:18:25.127 --> 00:18:27.963
  • We serve a good god who loves you,
  • 00:18:27.963 --> 00:18:30.633
  • But we need to learn true repentance every single day.
  • 00:18:30.633 --> 00:18:35.237
  • You should be praising god
  • 00:18:35.237 --> 00:18:36.739
  • And thanking him for what he has placed in your life.
  • 00:18:36.739 --> 00:18:39.475
  • And every day you should repent before the lord
  • 00:18:39.475 --> 00:18:43.078
  • God. there sins in my life i don't even know about.
  • 00:18:43.078 --> 00:18:45.848
  • There are things that i've done that i've forgotten about god.
  • 00:18:45.848 --> 00:18:48.150
  • I give it to you, father.
  • 00:18:48.150 --> 00:18:49.818
  • Today i want to please you.
  • 00:18:49.818 --> 00:18:52.988
  • I pray that over this church all the time.
  • 00:18:53.956 --> 00:18:56.659
  • I pray that over my messages to that every time we preach
  • 00:18:56.659 --> 00:18:59.695
  • And the word goes out
  • 00:18:59.695 --> 00:19:01.096
  • And we come together, we do this to please the lord, not people
  • 00:19:01.096 --> 00:19:04.533
  • And everything we do.
  • 00:19:05.067 --> 00:19:06.168
  • God, are you pleased today?
  • 00:19:06.168 --> 00:19:08.737
  • Were you happy with what we did today?
  • 00:19:08.737 --> 00:19:10.206
  • If not, reveal to me and we will change it.
  • 00:19:10.206 --> 00:19:13.576
  • Daniel repented. why?
  • 00:19:14.109 --> 00:19:15.678
  • Because he's reading the book of jeremiah again,
  • 00:19:15.678 --> 00:19:17.580
  • The same book of jeremiah that we have in our bible.
  • 00:19:17.580 --> 00:19:20.449
  • And when daniel was very young, okay.
  • 00:19:20.449 --> 00:19:23.419
  • When daniel was very young,
  • 00:19:23.419 --> 00:19:24.687
  • The prophet jeremiah was speaking to judah,
  • 00:19:24.687 --> 00:19:28.023
  • Southern israel, okay, that these things were coming.
  • 00:19:28.023 --> 00:19:31.460
  • He was warning
  • 00:19:31.460 --> 00:19:32.728
  • The people, and the people were not listening at all.
  • 00:19:32.728 --> 00:19:37.032
  • Did you know that jeremiah is also known
  • 00:19:37.032 --> 00:19:38.867
  • As the weeping prophet
  • 00:19:38.867 --> 00:19:41.036
  • Because he felt god's pain for his people?
  • 00:19:41.036 --> 00:19:44.073
  • God is warning his children, repent, come to me
  • 00:19:44.073 --> 00:19:48.444
  • So that you can be protected
  • 00:19:49.078 --> 00:19:51.680
  • And guided
  • 00:19:51.680 --> 00:19:53.949
  • And nobody listen.
  • 00:19:53.949 --> 00:19:56.418
  • Jeremiah was rejected.
  • 00:19:56.418 --> 00:19:58.954
  • He was put in prison.
  • 00:19:58.954 --> 00:20:01.390
  • He was listen to this.
  • 00:20:01.390 --> 00:20:02.391
  • He was alone.
  • 00:20:02.391 --> 00:20:04.727
  • God actually told him not to marry in jeremiah chapter
  • 00:20:04.727 --> 00:20:07.563
  • 16, verse two, because he knew that life would get too hard
  • 00:20:07.563 --> 00:20:10.766
  • And the trials would be too much for him.
  • 00:20:10.766 --> 00:20:14.503
  • To talk about but surrender.
  • 00:20:15.137 --> 00:20:18.707
  • Keep asking god speaking that over your life,
  • 00:20:18.707 --> 00:20:20.509
  • Like you truly surrendering everything.
  • 00:20:20.509 --> 00:20:23.812
  • God the relationship.
  • 00:20:23.812 --> 00:20:24.747
  • I've always wanted this.
  • 00:20:24.747 --> 00:20:26.682
  • The family that i've always wanted.
  • 00:20:26.682 --> 00:20:30.019
  • God was actually protecting jeremiah
  • 00:20:30.019 --> 00:20:33.289
  • Because what was coming
  • 00:20:33.289 --> 00:20:34.857
  • Was a disaster.
  • 00:20:34.857 --> 00:20:37.393
  • It was scary for everybody
  • 00:20:37.393 --> 00:20:39.862
  • Because they would not listen to the lord.
  • 00:20:39.862 --> 00:20:44.199
  • And there's times that
  • 00:20:44.767 --> 00:20:45.501
  • Jeremiah even questioned god.
  • 00:20:45.501 --> 00:20:48.537
  • Sure about this?
  • 00:20:48.537 --> 00:20:49.138
  • Lord?
  • 00:20:49.138 --> 00:20:52.408
  • He's speaking, but nobody's listening.
  • 00:20:52.408 --> 00:20:53.876
  • Let me ask you today, do you know this feels.
  • 00:20:53.876 --> 00:20:57.346
  • Like you keep speak.
  • 00:20:57.846 --> 00:20:59.848
  • Nobody's listening to you.
  • 00:20:59.848 --> 00:21:02.051
  • Nobody's listening to how you feel.
  • 00:21:02.051 --> 00:21:04.486
  • Nobody cares about what's going on in your life.
  • 00:21:04.486 --> 00:21:06.622
  • Nobody's there for you.
  • 00:21:06.622 --> 00:21:08.123
  • And you know, in a relationship or even a friendship.
  • 00:21:08.123 --> 00:21:11.026
  • When there's no communication, there is only manipulation.
  • 00:21:11.026 --> 00:21:13.896
  • And if the person
  • 00:21:13.896 --> 00:21:15.197
  • You love doesn't listen to you, do you feel connected?
  • 00:21:15.197 --> 00:21:18.434
  • You feel disconnected because you feel like
  • 00:21:18.434 --> 00:21:20.569
  • You can't talk to each other, and it breaks
  • 00:21:20.569 --> 00:21:24.206
  • And it hurts and it rips apart your heart.
  • 00:21:24.206 --> 00:21:26.909
  • If it feels like that, then why do we do it to god?
  • 00:21:26.909 --> 00:21:31.113
  • Why do we do it to him?
  • 00:21:31.714 --> 00:21:32.948
  • In his word?
  • 00:21:32.948 --> 00:21:33.882
  • God is speaking. we're not in it.
  • 00:21:33.882 --> 00:21:37.186
  • I'll do a little thing later.
  • 00:21:37.186 --> 00:21:38.387
  • God, i got a lot of other things to get to know.
  • 00:21:38.387 --> 00:21:40.989
  • Today is the day. wake up from your slumber.
  • 00:21:40.989 --> 00:21:46.328
  • Okay, we're
  • 00:21:46.729 --> 00:21:47.429
  • Not playing church games.
  • 00:21:47.429 --> 00:21:50.132
  • That's not what i'm preaching.
  • 00:21:50.132 --> 00:21:52.368
  • For us to check this off a list to say we did it, we showed up.
  • 00:21:52.368 --> 00:21:55.704
  • No, no, no, god wants to do so much more to you.
  • 00:21:55.704 --> 00:21:59.208
  • And you must walk by faith
  • 00:21:59.208 --> 00:22:01.844
  • To see the spirit move in your life.
  • 00:22:01.844 --> 00:22:05.247
  • Imagine how god feels every time we do not listen.
  • 00:22:05.247 --> 00:22:07.483
  • He is the creator of our souls
  • 00:22:07.483 --> 00:22:10.686
  • And he speaks purpose over us.
  • 00:22:11.387 --> 00:22:14.857
  • And jeremiah prophesied
  • 00:22:14.857 --> 00:22:17.393
  • That for 70 years the people of israel
  • 00:22:17.393 --> 00:22:19.728
  • Will go into captivity.
  • 00:22:19.728 --> 00:22:23.465
  • Because his people would need to be humbled.
  • 00:22:23.465 --> 00:22:26.368
  • And again, if you do not humble yourself
  • 00:22:26.368 --> 00:22:28.036
  • Before the almighty god, god will humble you
  • 00:22:28.036 --> 00:22:31.407
  • Not to destroy you, but
  • 00:22:31.407 --> 00:22:33.409
  • To save you, because your pride will lead you to hell.
  • 00:22:33.409 --> 00:22:37.379
  • Your pride will destroy you.
  • 00:22:38.013 --> 00:22:39.715
  • It will come after you.
  • 00:22:39.715 --> 00:22:41.150
  • You will not listen to god if you're not repenting.
  • 00:22:41.150 --> 00:22:44.386
  • Pride has consumed you.
  • 00:22:44.386 --> 00:22:48.223
  • God was given the warning.
  • 00:22:48.857 --> 00:22:51.827
  • Nobody listen.
  • 00:22:51.827 --> 00:22:52.961
  • And so now daniel again, he's he's much older.
  • 00:22:52.961 --> 00:22:54.930
  • They've been in captivity for a long time.
  • 00:22:54.930 --> 00:22:56.965
  • Listen to how he repents.
  • 00:22:56.965 --> 00:22:58.066
  • Daniel, chapter nine, verse three.
  • 00:22:58.066 --> 00:22:59.968
  • So i turn to the lord god,
  • 00:22:59.968 --> 00:23:02.171
  • And i pleaded with him in prayer and fasting.
  • 00:23:02.171 --> 00:23:05.574
  • I also wore rough burlap and sprinkled myself with ashes.
  • 00:23:05.574 --> 00:23:11.647
  • Okay, so we spent time with the lord.
  • 00:23:11.647 --> 00:23:13.849
  • What is the first thing that he did?
  • 00:23:13.849 --> 00:23:15.284
  • He sprinkled his head with ashes and he wore burlap.
  • 00:23:15.284 --> 00:23:19.321
  • Okay, he did this
  • 00:23:19.321 --> 00:23:20.756
  • Because this signifies and represents
  • 00:23:20.756 --> 00:23:23.058
  • That there was a mourning in his life,
  • 00:23:23.058 --> 00:23:25.527
  • That there is sorrow in his life, that there is actually
  • 00:23:25.527 --> 00:23:29.064
  • Death in his life.
  • 00:23:29.064 --> 00:23:30.399
  • Because sin will always bring death.
  • 00:23:30.399 --> 00:23:33.769
  • That's what the ashes represent.
  • 00:23:33.769 --> 00:23:36.238
  • But there's a lot of us.
  • 00:23:36.238 --> 00:23:37.906
  • What do we do when we go through a hard time instead of god?
  • 00:23:37.906 --> 00:23:40.809
  • We just search for more comfort,
  • 00:23:40.809 --> 00:23:42.611
  • More distractions, right?
  • 00:23:43.245 --> 00:23:45.881
  • When you're going through a difficult time,
  • 00:23:45.881 --> 00:23:47.015
  • Do you put on the sweats,
  • 00:23:47.015 --> 00:23:49.151
  • The big hoodie that's comfortable?
  • 00:23:49.151 --> 00:23:50.919
  • Lay on the couch, get a big tub of ice cream.
  • 00:23:50.919 --> 00:23:52.788
  • I hate god, i'm handling my feelings today.
  • 00:23:52.788 --> 00:23:55.924
  • A lot of us do.
  • 00:23:56.391 --> 00:23:58.327
  • I'm not saying it's a bad thing, but i just.
  • 00:23:58.327 --> 00:24:00.062
  • I'm looking at daniel here.
  • 00:24:00.062 --> 00:24:01.230
  • Daniel did the complete opposite.
  • 00:24:01.230 --> 00:24:02.498
  • He said, i will not eat until i hear from you.
  • 00:24:02.498 --> 00:24:05.567
  • All right, guys, that's all the time we have for today.
  • 00:24:05.567 --> 00:24:07.970
  • But i pray that today's message bless your life.
  • 00:24:07.970 --> 00:24:11.707
  • There is a reason you heard this word today.

  • Over the conference,
  • 00:25:31.820 --> 00:25:32.955
  • All you have to do is click the link below.
  • 00:25:32.955 --> 00:25:34.556
  • In fact, here's a recap video to show you what all god did
  • 00:25:34.556 --> 00:25:39.361
  • And. me.
  • 00:25:39.695 --> 00:26:02.384
  • And the
  • 00:26:02.718 --> 00:26:03.685
  • Reason i even bring it up tonight
  • 00:26:03.685 --> 00:26:06.455
  • Is because when it comes to you knowing jesus, the man,
  • 00:26:06.455 --> 00:26:11.226
  • The gospel message is all about
  • 00:26:11.226 --> 00:26:14.162
  • Your understanding of the message about the man
  • 00:26:14.162 --> 00:26:18.467
  • Who will inform your methods of getting to know the man.
  • 00:26:18.467 --> 00:26:46.695
  • And he.
  • 00:26:47.029 --> 00:26:51.600
  • Left his job doesn't work out for me.
  • 00:26:52.501 --> 00:26:54.903
  • What if i move my life by faith and it all just
  • 00:26:54.903 --> 00:26:58.807
  • Crumbles to the ground? what if it works?
  • 00:26:58.807 --> 00:27:01.543
  • What if god shows up and changes your life forever?
  • 00:27:01.543 --> 00:27:04.479
  • But i would rather move by faith
  • 00:27:04.479 --> 00:27:06.281
  • And even fail and fail and fail and know that i follow god.
  • 00:27:06.281 --> 00:27:10.152
  • And i ended up exactly where i needed to be.
  • 00:27:10.152 --> 00:27:42.651
  • You know what today is
  • 00:27:43.218 --> 00:27:45.287
  • Pentecost sunday.
  • 00:27:45.287 --> 00:27:48.356
  • Pentecost sunday.
  • 00:27:48.857 --> 00:27:53.762
  • You better
  • 00:27:54.129 --> 00:27:55.564
  • Not ask the holy ghost preacher to preach on pentecost sunday.
  • 00:27:55.564 --> 00:27:58.166
