Bobby Chandler: Authentic Church | Bobby Chandler - When The Fit Doesn't Fit (Part 2) | October 14, 2025

Has given us an assignment.
00:00:02.824 --> 00:00:04.559
And that assignment is to spread the gospel all over the world.
00:00:04.559 --> 00:00:09.130
So today we get to celebrate jesus.
00:00:09.130 --> 00:00:12.200
The truth is, if god waited for perfect families,
00:00:12.200 --> 00:00:14.936
He would never raise up any leaders.
00:00:14.936 --> 00:00:18.206
Do you understand that?
00:00:18.206 --> 00:00:20.108
If god was waiting on perfect families,
00:00:20.108 --> 00:00:21.676
He would never raise up
00:00:21.676 --> 00:00:22.811
Any leaders because there aren't any perfect families.
00:00:22.811 --> 00:00:25.814
He doesn't need that.
00:00:26.314 --> 00:00:27.248
But here's what i want you to see, though.
00:00:27.248 --> 00:00:30.051
There's something deeper here about david.
00:00:30.051 --> 00:00:32.954
David was not invited
00:00:32.954 --> 00:00:35.123
To the party by his own father.
00:00:35.123 --> 00:00:39.127
This thing,
00:00:39.461 --> 00:00:41.663
Like david, wasn't invited to the party.
00:00:41.663 --> 00:00:43.298
It wasn't even thought of.
00:00:43.298 --> 00:00:44.999
He's looking for a king.
00:00:44.999 --> 00:00:45.867
Here's my son's.
00:00:45.867 --> 00:00:48.303
None of them.
00:00:48.303 --> 00:00:50.138
I bring david.
00:00:50.138 --> 00:00:51.973
He did not believe that saw samuel could be talking
00:00:51.973 --> 00:00:54.509
About david at all.
00:00:54.509 --> 00:00:56.311
And this means.
00:00:56.678 --> 00:00:57.312
Listen very clearly.
00:00:57.312 --> 00:00:58.346
David did not come from a perfect family.
00:00:58.346 --> 00:01:00.615
He came from dysfunction.
00:01:00.615 --> 00:01:03.651
He also came from dysfunction.
00:01:03.651 --> 00:01:05.553
I've studied a lot of relationships out of the bible.
00:01:05.553 --> 00:01:07.589
I've come to see something.
00:01:07.589 --> 00:01:09.124
There's a lot of dysfunction in the families that god has used.
00:01:09.124 --> 00:01:12.293
In fact, there was no perfect family out of the bible.
00:01:12.293 --> 00:01:14.629
The only one perfect is jesus christ.
00:01:14.629 --> 00:01:16.798
And the best relationship that i see out of the bible.
00:01:16.798 --> 00:01:19.534
I believe this is interesting is mary and joseph.
00:01:19.534 --> 00:01:22.704
That is the best relationship that i see out of the bible.
00:01:22.704 --> 00:01:25.306
Everybody else, all kinds of problems,
00:01:25.306 --> 00:01:27.642
All kinds of mess ups, like just idiotic things.
00:01:27.642 --> 00:01:30.445
I'm like, why did you say that?
00:01:30.445 --> 00:01:31.646
Why did you do that?
00:01:31.646 --> 00:01:32.714
Right? like, we see that, but god still use them.
00:01:32.714 --> 00:01:34.816
God can still use you.
00:01:34.816 --> 00:01:36.684
And it doesn't matter what you come from
00:01:36.684 --> 00:01:38.086
Or what you're dealing with.
00:01:38.086 --> 00:01:38.953
But god was able to use the dysfunction
00:01:38.953 --> 00:01:41.122
To show a testimony of his grace and mercy.
00:01:41.122 --> 00:01:44.592
So again, let me say it like this.
00:01:44.592 --> 00:01:45.994
God does not need a perfect past to release a perfect purpose.
00:01:45.994 --> 00:01:51.366
The truth is, if god waited for perfect families, he would
00:01:51.366 --> 00:01:54.402
Never raise up any leaders.
00:01:54.402 --> 00:01:56.671
Do you understand that?
00:01:57.172 --> 00:01:59.274
If god was waiting on perfect families,
00:01:59.274 --> 00:02:00.842
He would never raise up any leaders
00:02:00.842 --> 00:02:02.143
Because there aren't any perfect families.
00:02:02.143 --> 00:02:05.713
And the jewish culture is very interesting.
00:02:06.581 --> 00:02:08.216
There's a there's a lot there
00:02:08.216 --> 00:02:09.217
When it comes to david and his family.
00:02:09.217 --> 00:02:11.419
There's a lot that's believed.
00:02:11.419 --> 00:02:12.820
The hurt that he experienced.
00:02:12.820 --> 00:02:15.790
But let me just show you the scripture,
00:02:15.790 --> 00:02:17.058
What david wrote about his own family.
00:02:17.058 --> 00:02:19.627
Psalm 6069, verse seven and eight.
00:02:19.627 --> 00:02:22.830
Maybe you can relate to this.
00:02:23.464 --> 00:02:24.465
I endured insults for your sake.
00:02:24.465 --> 00:02:26.901
Humiliation is written all over my face.
00:02:26.901 --> 00:02:30.905
For even my own brothers pretend they don't know me.
00:02:30.905 --> 00:02:34.175
And they treat me like strangers.
00:02:34.175 --> 00:02:37.145
My brothers are annoyed with me.
00:02:37.145 --> 00:02:39.547
They don't like me.
00:02:39.547 --> 00:02:41.449
They don't want to be around me because god built me different.
00:02:41.449 --> 00:02:45.320
I believe that david has such talent.
00:02:45.320 --> 00:02:47.889
You can see something. this was breaks my heart.
00:02:47.889 --> 00:02:49.691
People hear about david's talent,
00:02:49.691 --> 00:02:52.227
But his own family overlooks that talent.
00:02:52.227 --> 00:02:54.696
People can see it, but the family cannot.
00:02:55.530 --> 00:02:57.465
I believe that they were jealous of david.
00:02:57.465 --> 00:03:00.001
Like joseph.
00:03:00.001 --> 00:03:00.935
Like many other stories out of the bible.
00:03:00.935 --> 00:03:02.804
Psalms 27, verse ten.
00:03:02.804 --> 00:03:04.205
This is a powerful verse because i believe it brings healing.
00:03:04.205 --> 00:03:06.641
If you grow, if you've grown up in
00:03:06.641 --> 00:03:07.875
Dysfunction, especially with your parents.
00:03:07.875 --> 00:03:09.244
But listen to this.
00:03:09.244 --> 00:03:10.211
Even if my father and mother abandoned me,
00:03:10.211 --> 00:03:14.082
The lord will hold me close.
00:03:14.082 --> 00:03:17.485
Even if i'm neglected
00:03:17.485 --> 00:03:19.454
And my family leaves and i feel alone.
00:03:19.454 --> 00:03:22.257
I know this truth.
00:03:22.257 --> 00:03:23.324
I am not alone in my situation.
00:03:23.324 --> 00:03:26.327
And if you feel like that today, and it feels like everybody
00:03:26.327 --> 00:03:28.863
That you've ever loved
00:03:28.863 --> 00:03:30.198
Has abandoned you, you're still not alone.
00:03:30.198 --> 00:03:33.801
You can be in god's presence and he will hold your hand.
00:03:33.801 --> 00:03:38.339
This family, the family of
00:03:38.906 --> 00:03:40.408
David, didn't understand the purpose.
00:03:40.408 --> 00:03:42.577
They weren't hearing from god.
00:03:42.577 --> 00:03:43.811
And here's how i realized the ministry like beyoncé was, had.
00:03:43.811 --> 00:03:47.582
I don't expect people to hear what god is
00:03:47.582 --> 00:03:50.485
Speaking over my life specifically and specifically.
00:03:50.485 --> 00:03:53.321
Okay.
00:03:53.321 --> 00:03:54.389
I don't expect people to hear that.
00:03:54.389 --> 00:03:56.391
And you don't have to argue about it.
00:03:56.391 --> 00:03:57.959
You don't have to get on facebook
00:03:57.959 --> 00:03:58.993
And debate, listen, let go of the keyboard.
00:03:58.993 --> 00:04:01.529
Some of y'all need that today.
00:04:01.529 --> 00:04:02.530
Okay.
00:04:02.530 --> 00:04:03.731
Just step in to the promise, okay?
00:04:03.731 --> 00:04:06.601
When you step into the promise,
00:04:06.601 --> 00:04:08.503
Then they will see what the lord has spoken over your life.
00:04:08.503 --> 00:04:11.339
Before i get to the next point, let's ask the question.
00:04:11.339 --> 00:04:13.207
How do you heal from this?
00:04:13.207 --> 00:04:14.208
So if you've suffered with family dysfunction
00:04:14.208 --> 00:04:18.079
From your parents or siblings, the first thing is to
00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:20.381
Speak truth over your trauma.
00:04:20.381 --> 00:04:23.084
Stop believing the lies of what they said over you.
00:04:24.085 --> 00:04:27.055
Now be realistic.
00:04:27.055 --> 00:04:28.823
Look at some of your decisions and your choices.
00:04:28.823 --> 00:04:30.758
Don't just blame everybody else
00:04:30.758 --> 00:04:31.826
For some of the things that you decided to do.
00:04:31.826 --> 00:04:33.528
But listen. david did not hide his rejection.
00:04:33.528 --> 00:04:36.464
He wrote it down and gave it over to the lord.
00:04:36.464 --> 00:04:39.667
He wrote songs about it.
00:04:39.667 --> 00:04:41.803
He said, god, i'm hurting my family.
00:04:41.803 --> 00:04:44.005
It's hurting me.
00:04:44.005 --> 00:04:45.573
But i know that you have still called me.
00:04:45.573 --> 00:04:47.408
I know that you are still using me.
00:04:47.408 --> 00:04:49.277
He gave it over to the lord.
00:04:49.277 --> 00:04:50.712
He spoke god's truth and he held on to god's truth
00:04:50.712 --> 00:04:53.915
Through the trials that he faced.
00:04:53.915 --> 00:04:56.284
And the second thing
00:04:56.284 --> 00:04:57.385
Is this move forward with purpose, not permission.
00:04:57.385 --> 00:05:01.389
If god has made it clear, okay.
00:05:02.023 --> 00:05:04.425
And i do want to encourage you, take time.
00:05:04.425 --> 00:05:07.562
Don't rush it.
00:05:07.562 --> 00:05:09.030
Make sure god is speaking this.
00:05:09.030 --> 00:05:10.698
Make sure that it is confirmed 100%.
00:05:10.698 --> 00:05:13.735
But when god has placed his anointing on your life,
00:05:13.735 --> 00:05:16.537
You don't need to wait for other people's permission to move,
00:05:16.537 --> 00:05:19.707
Okay?
00:05:19.941 --> 00:05:20.908
Stop waiting for people to approve what god
00:05:20.908 --> 00:05:23.044
Has already anointed.
00:05:23.044 --> 00:05:25.246
Otherwise, david would have stayed a shepherd
00:05:26.180 --> 00:05:28.750
In a field for god.
00:05:28.750 --> 00:05:32.120
But he knew that the lord had something bigger for him,
00:05:32.120 --> 00:05:35.189
Something better.
00:05:35.623 --> 00:05:37.358
So this leads to point number two, which is this.
00:05:37.358 --> 00:05:39.227
Okay.
00:05:39.227 --> 00:05:40.161
Don't force a fit that was never yours.
00:05:40.161 --> 00:05:43.731
And again, you can't fight a spiritual battle
00:05:43.731 --> 00:05:46.134
In somebody else's armor.
00:05:46.134 --> 00:05:47.902
And what i love about the story, like he's anointed,
00:05:47.902 --> 00:05:50.638
He's going to be the next king.
00:05:50.638 --> 00:05:51.773
And it looks like david is moving up very quickly.
00:05:51.773 --> 00:05:54.509
Right?
00:05:54.509 --> 00:05:55.476
Because all of a sudden now we see that saul
00:05:55.476 --> 00:05:57.278
Lost the holy spirit, and because he lost the holy spirit.
00:05:57.278 --> 00:06:01.082
Demons have now come into his life.
00:06:01.082 --> 00:06:03.351
He's being tormented.
00:06:03.351 --> 00:06:04.886
He needs help.
00:06:04.886 --> 00:06:06.220
And all of a sudden, david's name gets passed around
00:06:06.220 --> 00:06:09.724
And david gets an opportunity to go to the palace.
00:06:09.724 --> 00:06:13.661
But listen to this first samuel 1614 216.
00:06:13.661 --> 00:06:17.632
Now the spirit of the lord has left saul and the lord sent.
00:06:17.632 --> 00:06:22.103
Also meaning allowed.
00:06:22.103 --> 00:06:23.204
God allowed a tormenting spirit that filled saul.
00:06:23.204 --> 00:06:28.709
What did the demon bring?
00:06:29.277 --> 00:06:31.679
Depression and fear.
00:06:31.679 --> 00:06:35.183
What did the demon bring upon saul's mindset?
00:06:35.183 --> 00:06:38.886
When he rejected, god walked away from god.
00:06:38.886 --> 00:06:42.657
Okay. it brought in depression and fear.
00:06:42.657 --> 00:06:45.326
He became an open door for demons to attack.
00:06:45.326 --> 00:06:48.996
Something very important to note.
00:06:48.996 --> 00:06:51.098
When king saul disobeyed god and samuel rebuked him,
00:06:51.098 --> 00:06:54.702
He said to samuel, please don't take away my kingship.
00:06:54.702 --> 00:06:59.507
When david was rebuked later on, david
00:07:00.274 --> 00:07:02.510
Said, please god, don't take away your holy spirit.
00:07:02.510 --> 00:07:05.780
There's a difference here,
00:07:06.347 --> 00:07:08.449
But i want you to see something very important.
00:07:08.449 --> 00:07:10.251
Demons can bring depression and fear,
00:07:10.251 --> 00:07:13.554
And i need to make this very clear.
00:07:13.554 --> 00:07:14.822
When it is a spiritual battle,
00:07:14.822 --> 00:07:16.791
A pill is not going to help for the case, for the fight,
00:07:16.791 --> 00:07:20.528
When it is a spiritual battle against depression and fear.
00:07:20.528 --> 00:07:23.931
Listen.
00:07:24.165 --> 00:07:25.032
Numbing the pain with drinking alcohol.
00:07:25.032 --> 00:07:27.001
It's not going to help the problem,
00:07:27.001 --> 00:07:28.736
Because that's not going to cast out
00:07:28.736 --> 00:07:30.071
The demons that are coming after your mindset.
00:07:30.071 --> 00:07:32.173
In fact,
00:07:32.173 --> 00:07:33.341
It opens up more doors for demons to come into your life.
00:07:33.341 --> 00:07:36.711
You're being consumed by these things.
00:07:36.711 --> 00:07:38.546
It is a spiritual fight.
00:07:38.546 --> 00:07:41.048
And i'm telling you, god loves you so much that he gave his one
00:07:41.048 --> 00:07:44.185
And only son to die for you upon the cross,
00:07:44.185 --> 00:07:47.455
Shed his blood, rose from the grave
00:07:47.455 --> 00:07:49.323
So that you could
00:07:49.323 --> 00:07:50.458
Have eternal salvation, but so that you can also be free
00:07:50.458 --> 00:07:53.628
From the bondage demons sort of place on you.
00:07:53.628 --> 00:07:57.231
But again, you never
00:07:57.698 --> 00:07:58.599
Step into a promise you don't believe.
00:07:58.599 --> 00:08:01.469
You got to walk out of addiction,
00:08:01.469 --> 00:08:03.404
And it's going to be hard.
00:08:03.404 --> 00:08:05.273
You got to walk past the pain.
00:08:05.273 --> 00:08:06.674
It's going to be hard.
00:08:06.674 --> 00:08:08.676
You can trust the lord to the entire process.
00:08:08.676 --> 00:08:11.112
He will hold your hand.
00:08:11.112 --> 00:08:12.914
But here is okay.
00:08:12.914 --> 00:08:15.650
Yes, david, come.
00:08:15.650 --> 00:08:18.085
David was able to rebuke the demon.
00:08:18.085 --> 00:08:20.488
How did he rebuke the demon?
00:08:20.488 --> 00:08:22.590
By playing worship music.
00:08:22.590 --> 00:08:26.527
There's power when you worship.
00:08:27.161 --> 00:08:29.363
There is such power.
00:08:29.363 --> 00:08:31.032
Someone saw a servant said to him.
00:08:31.032 --> 00:08:33.000
A tormenting spirit from god is troubling you.
00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:35.403
Let us find a good musician to play the harp.
00:08:35.403 --> 00:08:38.439
Whenever the tormenting spirit troubles you,
00:08:38.439 --> 00:08:40.408
He will play soothing music.
00:08:40.408 --> 00:08:42.243
And david comes.
00:08:42.243 --> 00:08:43.244
He plays the heart, but he sings to the lord.
00:08:43.244 --> 00:08:45.613
He sings to yahweh.
00:08:45.613 --> 00:08:47.381
And every time he sings, the demon has to leave
00:08:47.381 --> 00:08:52.486
Us to leave.
00:08:52.820 --> 00:08:54.155
He was able to calm him.
00:08:54.155 --> 00:08:55.256
Think about the things that
00:08:55.256 --> 00:08:56.424
Could be calmed in your life by just worshiping jesus,
00:08:56.424 --> 00:08:59.894
But just worshiping jesus by giving it over to the lord.
00:08:59.894 --> 00:09:02.597
I remember this woman
00:09:02.597 --> 00:09:04.098
A long time ago was dealing with
00:09:04.098 --> 00:09:05.066
Spiritual warfare in her house.
00:09:05.066 --> 00:09:06.667
She called some of the pastors to come pray.
00:09:06.667 --> 00:09:08.603
And so we went in there and we didn't do anything weird
00:09:08.603 --> 00:09:11.205
Like a movie or anything like that.
00:09:11.205 --> 00:09:12.340
We just went there and we worship jesus.
00:09:12.340 --> 00:09:15.343
And i remember, like, it just felt like everything shifted,
00:09:15.343 --> 00:09:18.312
Just worshiping jesus.
00:09:18.312 --> 00:09:19.313
And she said it never happened again.
00:09:19.313 --> 00:09:21.749
After we came in the house and just worship jesus
00:09:21.749 --> 00:09:24.251
By worshiping, you can rebuke demon.
00:09:24.251 --> 00:09:27.555
Verse 18 there, listen to this.
00:09:27.555 --> 00:09:28.956
One of the servants said of saul,
00:09:28.956 --> 00:09:30.124
The one of jesse's sons from bethlehem
00:09:30.124 --> 00:09:33.127
Is a talented harp player.
00:09:33.127 --> 00:09:36.097
Look at the setup god is doing.
00:09:36.097 --> 00:09:39.100
You don't even have to be
00:09:39.100 --> 00:09:40.167
In the room for god to give you a good position,
00:09:40.167 --> 00:09:44.138
For god to place something good upon your name.
00:09:44.138 --> 00:09:46.674
You don't have to even know what's going on.
00:09:46.674 --> 00:09:49.110
God is doing it behind the scenes.
00:09:49.110 --> 00:09:51.345
And then they stated not only that,
00:09:51.345 --> 00:09:52.413
But he is a brave warrior man of war.
00:09:52.413 --> 00:09:54.615
He has good judgment and he is a fine looking young man.
00:09:54.615 --> 00:09:57.852
And the lord is with him.
00:09:57.852 --> 00:10:00.054
And i love this because it looks like it's moving up.
00:10:00.054 --> 00:10:02.923
Moving up in the palace.
00:10:03.457 --> 00:10:06.427
I know arm
00:10:06.427 --> 00:10:08.863
Went back home watching sheep.
00:10:08.863 --> 00:10:11.932
Back to the battle later
00:10:11.932 --> 00:10:14.969
Back forth
00:10:15.269 --> 00:10:17.571
And at first it looked like he was moving up.
00:10:17.571 --> 00:10:20.307
Now he's going back and forth,
00:10:20.307 --> 00:10:22.677
Back and forth because things shift in chapter 17.
00:10:22.677 --> 00:10:26.180
Scholars believe okay, chapter 17 comes.
00:10:26.180 --> 00:10:28.015
The israelite army is now facing goliath.
00:10:28.015 --> 00:10:30.217
He believes it's been about two years since chapter 16.
00:10:30.217 --> 00:10:34.121
So about that time, david is going back and forth
00:10:34.121 --> 00:10:37.625
Serving the king.
00:10:38.059 --> 00:10:39.794
Even though he's anointed new king, he's
00:10:39.794 --> 00:10:41.862
Going back to the field and he's watching the sheep.
00:10:41.862 --> 00:10:45.332
And i want you to see this, okay?
00:10:45.332 --> 00:10:47.535
Because even though
00:10:47.535 --> 00:10:48.769
He is anointed, it looks like god has forgotten about you.
00:10:48.769 --> 00:10:51.972
Understand that?
00:10:51.972 --> 00:10:52.873
And like it looks like god has forgotten
00:10:52.873 --> 00:10:53.874
And it looks like nothing's going to happen.
00:10:53.874 --> 00:10:55.676
Verse samuel 17, verse 14 and 15.
00:10:55.676 --> 00:10:58.345
David's three oldest brother stayed with saul's army,
00:10:58.345 --> 00:11:01.182
But david went back and forth so that he could help his father
00:11:01.182 --> 00:11:05.786
With the sheep and bethlehem just back and forth.
00:11:05.786 --> 00:11:09.423
All right, god,
00:11:09.423 --> 00:11:10.691
When are things going to change or keep going back and forth?
00:11:10.691 --> 00:11:13.561
And i'm tired of this. and you told me things would happen,
00:11:13.561 --> 00:11:16.964
And you spoke this promise
00:11:17.531 --> 00:11:18.933
Over my life, but i don't see it right
00:11:18.933 --> 00:11:20.801
Now, and i don't know how this can happen.
00:11:20.801 --> 00:11:22.870
This and going back and forth for a time
00:11:22.870 --> 00:11:26.307
Does not mean you're going nowhere.
00:11:26.307 --> 00:11:29.810
Somebody needs to hear that right now.
00:11:29.810 --> 00:11:31.812
Just because you're going back and forth for a time
00:11:31.812 --> 00:11:34.014
Does not mean you're going nowhere.
00:11:34.014 --> 00:11:35.950
What seems like a delay
00:11:35.950 --> 00:11:37.418
May actually be a classroom for your purpose.
00:11:37.418 --> 00:11:41.021
For again, he was learning how to fight.
00:11:41.021 --> 00:11:43.924
He was learning how to serve.
00:11:43.924 --> 00:11:45.926
He was learning how to trust god and dangerous situations.
00:11:45.926 --> 00:11:50.197
God was preparing him as he's going back and forth, back
00:11:50.197 --> 00:11:53.768
And forth.
00:11:53.768 --> 00:11:54.702
Something he needs to learn in the palace,
00:11:54.702 --> 00:11:55.870
Something he needs to learn in the field.
00:11:55.870 --> 00:11:58.873
And everything seemed to be ordinary.
00:11:58.873 --> 00:12:00.741
But my god can take the ordinary
00:12:00.741 --> 00:12:02.376
And do something extraordinary.
00:12:02.376 --> 00:12:04.478
That's the revelation today.
00:12:05.079 --> 00:12:06.347
What may seem ordinary in your life
00:12:06.347 --> 00:12:08.249
Eventually can become extraordinary
00:12:08.249 --> 00:12:10.351
When you move by faith. because here it is.
00:12:10.351 --> 00:12:12.953
Here is first samuel 17,
00:12:12.953 --> 00:12:16.290
Verses 17 through 19.
00:12:16.791 --> 00:12:18.893
One day jesse said to david,
00:12:18.893 --> 00:12:21.162
Take this basket of roasted grain, ten
00:12:21.162 --> 00:12:23.764
Loaves of bread, and carry them quickly to your brothers.
00:12:23.764 --> 00:12:26.867
Then give ten cuts of cheese to the captain,
00:12:26.867 --> 00:12:29.670
And see how your brothers are getting along,
00:12:29.670 --> 00:12:31.505
And report to me how they are doing. okay.
00:12:31.505 --> 00:12:33.374
The anointing king has to make a choice here.
00:12:33.374 --> 00:12:36.544
Some of you are like, i'm anointed.
00:12:36.544 --> 00:12:38.012
You still got to serve,
00:12:38.012 --> 00:12:40.214
But i'm anointed it well.
00:12:40.214 --> 00:12:41.282
You still got to put in the work.
00:12:41.282 --> 00:12:43.117
I'm anointed, but you still got to move by faith.
00:12:43.117 --> 00:12:45.319
David was anointed, but god used his brother jesse to say.
00:12:45.319 --> 00:12:49.423
Go bring your brothers bread and cheese.
00:12:49.423 --> 00:12:51.358
You'd be like a pizza delivery boy today.
00:12:52.193 --> 00:12:55.095
Bringing them what they want.
00:12:55.095 --> 00:12:56.397
Even though they don't like you.
00:12:56.397 --> 00:12:57.631
They don't want to be around you. they'll make fun of you.
00:12:57.631 --> 00:13:00.034
And it seems small and it seems insignificant.
00:13:00.034 --> 00:13:02.703
And you may question god.
00:13:02.703 --> 00:13:03.938
God, why do i have to do this?
00:13:03.938 --> 00:13:08.876
It may seem dumb and and significant,
00:13:09.677 --> 00:13:12.012
But what looks like a dumb task would actually lead him
00:13:12.012 --> 00:13:15.282
To his very purpose.
00:13:15.282 --> 00:13:18.285
It was the bread and cheese
00:13:18.285 --> 00:13:21.021
That god revealed that to me as i was studying.
00:13:21.021 --> 00:13:22.990
This is the first time i've ever just preached on this subject.
00:13:22.990 --> 00:13:25.392
It was the bread and cheese.
00:13:25.392 --> 00:13:27.461
It was what seemed so ordinary, so small.
00:13:27.461 --> 00:13:31.432
That would lead him to the position
00:13:31.432 --> 00:13:33.734
That would change his life forever.
00:13:33.734 --> 00:13:36.904
He was going back and forth every day,
00:13:36.904 --> 00:13:39.974
Doing the same thing
00:13:40.441 --> 00:13:42.042
Until his father said, bring bread and cheese.
00:13:42.042 --> 00:13:44.345
And on that day, something was different.
00:13:44.345 --> 00:13:48.015
But he never would have
00:13:48.515 --> 00:13:49.717
Known that if he didn't go, if he didn't humble himself.
00:13:49.717 --> 00:13:52.553
Meaning? here's the big takeaway.
00:13:52.553 --> 00:13:54.588
Don't despise the ordinary assignments.
00:13:54.588 --> 00:13:59.193
They may seem like a small door, but god will
00:14:00.094 --> 00:14:02.796
Use those small doors to open up bigger doors.
00:14:02.796 --> 00:14:05.866
God can turn an ordinary assignment into a divine set up.
00:14:05.866 --> 00:14:11.071
Colossians chapter three, verse 23.
00:14:11.839 --> 00:14:14.708
Work willingly
00:14:14.708 --> 00:14:17.278
And whatever you do, as though you were working.
00:14:17.278 --> 00:14:20.814
For who?
00:14:21.081 --> 00:14:22.883
For the lord, rather than people.
00:14:22.883 --> 00:14:26.220
I don't like this job.
00:14:26.687 --> 00:14:29.089
I'm anointed, but i'm not.
00:14:29.089 --> 00:14:31.525
I want to be fighting, but i'm bringing bread and cheese.
00:14:31.525 --> 00:14:34.461
But i will work.
00:14:34.461 --> 00:14:35.663
And i will do this for the lord, not for people.
00:14:35.663 --> 00:14:40.634
I will show people god's glory, and i will serve
00:14:40.634 --> 00:14:43.804
Because the lord has told me to do it.
00:14:43.804 --> 00:14:46.140
And for david, it was bread and cheese
00:14:46.140 --> 00:14:48.409
That would lead him to fight goliath.
00:14:48.409 --> 00:14:51.812
For ruth,
00:14:52.112 --> 00:14:53.814
There's a lot of stories like this out of the bible for ruth.
00:14:53.814 --> 00:14:55.916
She was just trying to survive,
00:14:55.916 --> 00:14:58.719
And she was picking up food in the field,
00:14:58.719 --> 00:15:00.988
And she never would have thought
00:15:00.988 --> 00:15:02.356
She would meet her future husband, boaz,
00:15:02.356 --> 00:15:04.758
Who would change her life forever.
00:15:04.758 --> 00:15:07.061
Moses was tending sheep.
00:15:07.061 --> 00:15:09.163
He ran away from his past.
00:15:09.163 --> 00:15:10.831
He ran away from the people that he made mistakes with.
00:15:10.831 --> 00:15:13.767
And now he's hiding and he's lonely.
00:15:13.767 --> 00:15:15.636
He's tending sheep. he's doing work.
00:15:15.636 --> 00:15:17.371
But as he's tending the sheep, god leads him to a burning bush.
00:15:17.371 --> 00:15:22.476
Like i think we assume
00:15:22.943 --> 00:15:26.113
God will speak something over us.
00:15:26.113 --> 00:15:27.681
And it's just got to be all this.
00:15:27.681 --> 00:15:29.083
The supernatural and thunder and lightning.
00:15:29.083 --> 00:15:32.486
But i'm telling you, it's the ordinary that can
00:15:32.486 --> 00:15:34.555
Lead to the extraordinary,
00:15:34.555 --> 00:15:36.490
The simple task that you're doing right now.
00:15:37.391 --> 00:15:39.860
And you may feel like you're
00:15:39.860 --> 00:15:40.894
Going back and forth, back and forth.
00:15:40.894 --> 00:15:43.931
I'm tired of these emotions. i'm tired of this place.
00:15:43.931 --> 00:15:46.700
I'm tired of these people.
00:15:46.700 --> 00:15:47.901
But one day you may show up and it can all change.
00:15:47.901 --> 00:15:52.006
Okay?
00:15:52.239 --> 00:15:52.940
Why does god do this?
00:15:52.940 --> 00:15:54.942
Luke 16, verse ten
00:15:54.942 --> 00:15:57.878
If you are faithful in little things,
00:15:57.878 --> 00:16:01.348
You will be faithful in large ones.
00:16:02.082 --> 00:16:04.785
But if you are dishonest in the little things,
00:16:04.785 --> 00:16:07.988
You will not be honest with greater responsibilities.
00:16:07.988 --> 00:16:11.725
The bread and cheese was a test
00:16:11.725 --> 00:16:15.562
For david's anointing.
00:16:16.030 --> 00:16:18.899
Let me ask you a question.
00:16:18.899 --> 00:16:20.100
Are you complaining about the very thing god is testing
00:16:20.100 --> 00:16:23.170
You with to lead you to your anointing?
00:16:23.170 --> 00:16:27.041
Are you complaining to god?
00:16:27.641 --> 00:16:29.143
God, i don't want to do this. this is beneath me. it's not.
00:16:29.143 --> 00:16:33.981
It could actually lead
00:16:34.448 --> 00:16:35.215
You into your destiny.
00:16:35.215 --> 00:16:38.352
Because it's not about looking the part.
00:16:38.352 --> 00:16:41.955
It's about the faithful heart.
00:16:42.556 --> 00:16:45.959
You don't get to where
00:16:46.427 --> 00:16:47.327
You need to be by accident.
00:16:47.327 --> 00:16:50.864
I think sometimes we assume when people have achieved a lot.
00:16:50.864 --> 00:16:54.168
Are they just so lucky?
00:16:54.168 --> 00:16:57.171
Yo. no idea what battles they face.
00:16:57.171 --> 00:17:00.441
You have no idea how many nights that they've cried out
00:17:01.475 --> 00:17:03.944
To the lord to even receive what they have received today.
00:17:03.944 --> 00:17:08.348
The things that they have been through,
00:17:08.348 --> 00:17:09.883
All you see is a success, but you have no idea
00:17:09.883 --> 00:17:12.786
How many times they went back and forth
00:17:12.786 --> 00:17:15.823
Doing the little things over for the lord.
00:17:15.823 --> 00:17:19.026
Now listen to this.
00:17:19.493 --> 00:17:20.594
He shows up to the battlefield and he sees his brother
00:17:20.594 --> 00:17:24.131
Eliab, his oldest brother.
00:17:24.131 --> 00:17:26.100
And he says to him, first samuel 1728.
00:17:26.100 --> 00:17:29.803
He was angry, and he said, what are you doing here, david?
00:17:29.803 --> 00:17:34.808
This is listening to his dad.
00:17:35.442 --> 00:17:36.710
He's trying to bless his brothers.
00:17:36.710 --> 00:17:38.812
He's seen the battle.
00:17:38.812 --> 00:17:41.381
His brother says, what are you doing here?
00:17:41.381 --> 00:17:44.618
Now listen to this.
00:17:45.085 --> 00:17:46.320
What about this few sheep you're supposed to be taking care of?
00:17:46.320 --> 00:17:49.823
He's criticizing david.
00:17:50.324 --> 00:17:53.427
Why are you here?
00:17:53.427 --> 00:17:55.262
You're asking about what's going on, and you're asking,
00:17:55.262 --> 00:17:58.298
Why are we allowing this giant to blaspheme our god?
00:17:58.298 --> 00:18:00.701
But listen, i know your heart.
00:18:00.701 --> 00:18:02.369
He pretends. he knows david's heart.
00:18:02.369 --> 00:18:05.105
He says, i know about your pride
00:18:05.105 --> 00:18:07.474
And your deceit.
00:18:07.474 --> 00:18:08.876
You just want to see the battle.
00:18:08.876 --> 00:18:10.144
David.
00:18:10.144 --> 00:18:13.580
If you feel lonely, like god.
00:18:14.214 --> 00:18:17.151
These people don't know me.
00:18:17.151 --> 00:18:20.187
But they really judge me and condemn me
00:18:20.187 --> 00:18:22.856
Just because i'm showing up by faith.
00:18:22.856 --> 00:18:25.993
Those moments can hurt.
00:18:26.493 --> 00:18:29.029
Eliab was trying to clown david.
00:18:29.029 --> 00:18:30.731
Pretty much
00:18:30.731 --> 00:18:31.665
You just watching a few sheep.
00:18:32.266 --> 00:18:35.169
But here's what i realized in my own life
00:18:35.169 --> 00:18:37.004
And in the word of god.
00:18:37.004 --> 00:18:38.338
Just because people are mad at your presence
00:18:38.338 --> 00:18:41.975
And doesn't mean you're out of place.
00:18:41.975 --> 00:18:45.579
They're out of place.
00:18:46.079 --> 00:18:48.649
His brother said it's pride in his arrogance.
00:18:48.649 --> 00:18:50.817
It was faith.
00:18:50.817 --> 00:18:53.120
It was obedience.
00:18:53.120 --> 00:18:55.088
That's what's so good about the lord.
00:18:55.088 --> 00:18:56.690
Seeing the heart.
00:18:56.690 --> 00:18:58.659
Other people would judge and condemn and criticize
00:18:58.659 --> 00:19:01.328
You and come after you and understand this.
00:19:01.328 --> 00:19:03.463
The closer you get to god's presence
00:19:03.463 --> 00:19:06.099
And what he has for you, there will be more critics
00:19:06.099 --> 00:19:08.435
Than you've ever seen before in your life.
00:19:08.435 --> 00:19:11.638
But keep holding on to the word of god.
00:19:12.506 --> 00:19:15.742
David said, what did i do to you?
00:19:15.742 --> 00:19:19.446
I've done nothing to you.
00:19:20.013 --> 00:19:22.583
And listen.
00:19:22.916 --> 00:19:23.784
Eliab accused david of being prideful
00:19:23.784 --> 00:19:27.054
Because sometimes bold obedience can look like arrogance
00:19:27.054 --> 00:19:29.756
To people stuck in fear.
00:19:29.756 --> 00:19:32.826
You. i understand,
00:19:33.260 --> 00:19:35.362
Don't take advice
00:19:35.362 --> 00:19:37.631
From someone who's not willing to fight.
00:19:37.631 --> 00:19:41.101
Don't take advice from somebody
00:19:41.101 --> 00:19:42.769
Who's not willing to move by faith.
00:19:42.769 --> 00:19:46.273
So david said, never mind the critics.
00:19:46.273 --> 00:19:47.708
And somehow god got word to king saul.
00:19:47.708 --> 00:19:50.344
Saul calls david over to him.
00:19:50.344 --> 00:19:52.512
Listen to this first samuel 1732 through 37.
00:19:52.512 --> 00:19:56.817
Don't worry about the philistines, david.
00:19:56.817 --> 00:19:58.552
So saul, i'll go fight him.
00:19:58.552 --> 00:20:01.622
It's all said.
00:20:01.955 --> 00:20:02.456
That's ridiculous.
00:20:02.456 --> 00:20:04.758
That's ridiculous, saul replied.
00:20:04.758 --> 00:20:06.793
There's no way you can fight the philistine and possibly win.
00:20:06.793 --> 00:20:09.463
You're just a boy.
00:20:09.463 --> 00:20:10.597
And this man has been a man of war since his youth.
00:20:10.597 --> 00:20:13.233
You're too small. you're too young.
00:20:13.233 --> 00:20:15.002
Nobody cares about you. have you even fought anybody?
00:20:15.002 --> 00:20:17.738
David said, listen,
00:20:17.738 --> 00:20:18.939
I'm not listening to your criticism right now.
00:20:18.939 --> 00:20:21.942
He stated,
00:20:21.942 --> 00:20:23.076
I have been taking care of my father's sheep and goats.
00:20:23.076 --> 00:20:25.746
When a lion or a bear came to steal the lamb
00:20:25.746 --> 00:20:29.049
From the flock, i'll go after it with the club.
00:20:29.049 --> 00:20:31.551
I'll rescue the lamb from its mouth.
00:20:31.551 --> 00:20:33.654
And at the animal turns on me, i'll catch it by his jaw,
00:20:33.654 --> 00:20:37.724
And i will club it to death.
00:20:37.724 --> 00:20:39.960
I have done this to both lions and bears,
00:20:39.960 --> 00:20:42.429
And i'll do this to this pagan philistine to.
00:20:42.429 --> 00:20:46.133
For he has defied the armies of the living god,
00:20:46.133 --> 00:20:48.702
The lord, who rescue me from the claws of the lion and the bear
00:20:48.702 --> 00:20:52.406
Will rescue me from this phillip's team.
00:20:52.406 --> 00:20:54.775
The god who showed up in my life before, who rescue me,
00:20:54.775 --> 00:20:57.778
Will show up today
00:20:57.778 --> 00:20:59.579
To rescue me from the battle that i'm facing.
00:20:59.579 --> 00:21:02.683
He is a good god who shows up today.
00:21:02.683 --> 00:21:06.486
You didn't see it,
00:21:06.920 --> 00:21:09.523
But the lord was training me.
00:21:09.523 --> 00:21:12.526
I was fighting battles when nobody was looking.
00:21:12.526 --> 00:21:16.196
Being prepared to fight a battle that everybody will see.
00:21:16.196 --> 00:21:20.500
And maybe where you are.
00:21:21.034 --> 00:21:24.204
David firmly believed
00:21:24.204 --> 00:21:25.439
The same god who met him then
00:21:25.439 --> 00:21:28.608
Would be the same god who would beat him.
00:21:28.608 --> 00:21:32.446
I believe the biggest battle
00:21:33.046 --> 00:21:34.381
David faced was not so much goliath.
00:21:34.381 --> 00:21:37.451
He took down goliath pretty quickly.
00:21:37.451 --> 00:21:40.754
It was the battles with his own family,
00:21:40.754 --> 00:21:44.057
His own brothers.
00:21:44.057 --> 00:21:45.926
People's expectations, people's pressure.
00:21:45.926 --> 00:21:49.062
And again, i'll try to put his his armor on him.
00:21:49.062 --> 00:21:52.199
But you cannot fight a spiritual fight in someone else's armor.
00:21:52.199 --> 00:21:58.138
And i said that david grabbed five stones.
00:21:58.138 --> 00:22:00.474
I think this is remarkable because
00:22:00.474 --> 00:22:02.676
Did you know that goliath had four of the brothers?
00:22:02.676 --> 00:22:05.212
David said, i'll take down.
00:22:05.812 --> 00:22:06.813
Goliath was one stone, but i got more stones
00:22:06.813 --> 00:22:09.883
In case his brothers come to fight.
00:22:09.883 --> 00:22:11.251
Come to play.
00:22:11.251 --> 00:22:13.086
I'm ready for this.
00:22:13.086 --> 00:22:13.920
Listen, i want to encourage you today.
00:22:13.920 --> 00:22:15.389
If this is where you are.
00:22:15.389 --> 00:22:17.557
Because even in our story here at authentic church,
00:22:17.557 --> 00:22:20.093
There were so many people
00:22:20.093 --> 00:22:21.027
That said we were dumb by moving by faith.
00:22:21.027 --> 00:22:24.231
People called us idiots.
00:22:24.765 --> 00:22:27.067
People came after us.
00:22:27.067 --> 00:22:29.002
There are many, many critics.
00:22:29.002 --> 00:22:30.103
There are many people that were worried.
00:22:30.103 --> 00:22:31.838
Many people who did love us, that just were fearful.
00:22:31.838 --> 00:22:34.408
Things may not work out for your family.
00:22:34.408 --> 00:22:35.942
I don't know if this is going to happen.
00:22:35.942 --> 00:22:37.544
Maybe you should have, something in the back
00:22:37.544 --> 00:22:39.813
Just in case it doesn't take place.
00:22:39.813 --> 00:22:41.982
Hold on to something else.
00:22:41.982 --> 00:22:43.083
And to be honest with you,
00:22:43.083 --> 00:22:44.050
I didn't need anything else because i had god.
00:22:44.050 --> 00:22:46.686
I don't want to doubt god.
00:22:47.254 --> 00:22:48.188
I don't want to hold on to something else.
00:22:48.188 --> 00:22:49.423
I want to hold on to him.
00:22:49.423 --> 00:22:51.358
And even when there was success, there were still critics.
00:22:51.358 --> 00:22:54.761
There's still people coming after you.
00:22:54.761 --> 00:22:56.129
There's people that said i shouldn't
00:22:56.129 --> 00:22:57.431
Be posting on social media.
00:22:57.431 --> 00:22:58.999
There's people that have come out
00:22:58.999 --> 00:23:00.300
To stop the church, and god kept moving it forward
00:23:00.300 --> 00:23:03.937
To reach people.
00:23:03.937 --> 00:23:05.071
If i listen to critics, this would not be here today.
00:23:05.071 --> 00:23:08.208
Now why am i saying that?
00:23:08.775 --> 00:23:09.976
Because there are critics in your life
00:23:09.976 --> 00:23:12.679
Who are trying to stop you from stepping in to the promise
00:23:12.679 --> 00:23:16.216
That god has for you.
00:23:16.216 --> 00:23:17.484
But when you know it's from the lord, do not stop.
00:23:17.484 --> 00:23:20.454
You don't need their armor. you don't need their faith.
00:23:20.454 --> 00:23:22.856
You don't need those things, not the pressure.
00:23:22.856 --> 00:23:25.792
All you need is the word of the lord
00:23:25.792 --> 00:23:27.260
And use what god has trained you to use.
00:23:27.260 --> 00:23:31.164
That's how you
00:23:31.498 --> 00:23:32.032
Step into the promise.
00:23:32.032 --> 00:23:35.202
But people will still talk.
00:23:35.202 --> 00:23:38.638
But why would you allow someone else's fear
00:23:38.638 --> 00:23:41.608
To tell you how to where you're calling?
00:23:41.608 --> 00:23:44.978
Don't allow their doubt to get the best of you.
00:23:44.978 --> 00:23:46.746
My last point is this and it's just a point for application.
00:23:46.746 --> 00:23:50.050
God had a custom fit just for david.
00:23:50.050 --> 00:23:52.152
He has a custom fit just for you.
00:23:52.152 --> 00:23:55.121
Stop trying to be somebody else.
00:23:55.121 --> 00:23:58.492
You can learn from other people.
00:23:59.125 --> 00:24:01.561
Take advice. take wisdom.
00:24:01.561 --> 00:24:02.896
Especially those that are moved by faith.
00:24:02.896 --> 00:24:04.431
That's great,
00:24:04.431 --> 00:24:06.500
But stop trying to be somebody else.
00:24:06.500 --> 00:24:09.402
Be who god created you to be.
00:24:09.402 --> 00:24:11.571
Use the talents
00:24:11.571 --> 00:24:12.606
That he's placed in you to glorify his holy name
00:24:12.606 --> 00:24:16.309
And listen. don't twist my words in this.
00:24:16.309 --> 00:24:17.978
I'm not telling you to live in sin,
00:24:17.978 --> 00:24:19.980
Okay?
00:24:20.213 --> 00:24:21.014
Some people would say, well, well,
00:24:21.014 --> 00:24:22.249
This is my lifestyle and this is what i want to be.
00:24:22.249 --> 00:24:23.884
No no, no.
00:24:23.884 --> 00:24:24.351
Don't live in sin.
00:24:24.351 --> 00:24:25.619
Live to please god.
00:24:25.619 --> 00:24:27.554
Okay, but walk in obedience
00:24:27.554 --> 00:24:30.690
And always move by faith.
00:24:31.258 --> 00:24:34.261
You can actually take off what was never meant for you
00:24:34.261 --> 00:24:36.596
To put on and pick up what god has placed in you.
00:24:36.596 --> 00:24:40.200
All right guys, that's all the time we have for today.
00:24:41.234 --> 00:24:43.637
But i pray that today's message bless your life.
00:24:43.637 --> 00:24:47.374
There is a reason you heard this word today.
00:24:47.374 --> 00:24:49.910
It's not by mistake.
00:24:49.910 --> 00:24:51.378
You're here for a reason, and god has a plan for you.
00:24:51.378 --> 00:24:55.282
And listen, if you love this church
00:24:55.282 --> 00:24:57.450
And thinking about giving to this church, all you have to do
00:24:57.450 --> 00:25:00.320
Is visit our website at bobbie chandler ministries.com.
00:25:00.320 --> 00:25:04.224
And it's very easy to give.
00:25:04.224 --> 00:25:05.792
And once you give, listen,
00:25:05.792 --> 00:25:07.027
You're helping change lives because of your faithful giving.
00:25:07.027 --> 00:25:11.298
We're able to reach not only the nation, but the world.
00:25:11.298 --> 00:25:15.068
We're bringing the gospel of jesus christ
00:25:15.068 --> 00:25:17.504
Into everyone's home as much as we can,
00:25:17.504 --> 00:25:20.907
So that they know the love of god.
00:25:20.907 --> 00:25:23.910
And listen.
00:25:23.910 --> 00:25:24.811
If you want to hear more sermons as well.
00:25:24.811 --> 00:25:25.946
Don't forget you can join us live every sunday
00:25:25.946 --> 00:25:29.015
At 15 10:00 and 1145.
00:25:29.015 --> 00:25:32.185
So thank you for watching today
00:25:32.185 --> 00:25:34.521
And i can't wait to see you again very soon.
00:25:34.521 --> 00:25:37.591
Be happy to be.
00:25:37.591 --> 00:26:01.247
And the
00:26:01.481 --> 00:26:02.282
Reason i even bring it up tonight
00:26:02.282 --> 00:26:05.218
Is because when it comes to you knowing jesus, the man,
00:26:05.218 --> 00:26:09.990
The gospel message is all about
00:26:09.990 --> 00:26:12.926
Your understanding of the message about the man
00:26:12.926 --> 00:26:17.230
Who will inform your methods of getting to know the man. who?
00:26:17.230 --> 00:26:32.979
He be. he.
00:26:33.279 --> 00:26:48.662
Found
00:26:48.895 --> 00:26:51.264
That this job doesn't work out for me.
00:26:51.264 --> 00:26:53.667
What if i move my life by faith and it all just
00:26:53.667 --> 00:26:57.570
Crumbles to the ground? what if it works?
00:26:57.570 --> 00:27:00.306
What if god shows up and changes your life forever?
00:27:00.306 --> 00:27:03.243
But i would rather move by faith
00:27:03.243 --> 00:27:05.045
And even fail and fail and fail and know that i follow god.
00:27:05.045 --> 00:27:08.915
And i ended up exactly.
00:27:08.915 --> 00:27:10.150
Where i needed to be.
00:27:10.150 --> 00:27:41.648
You know what?
00:27:41.981 --> 00:27:42.415
Today is
00:27:42.415 --> 00:27:44.050
Pentecost sunday.
00:27:44.050 --> 00:27:47.220
Pentecost sunday.
00:27:47.654 --> 00:27:50.690
We. you better not ask a
00:27:51.224 --> 00:27:53.727
Holy ghost preacher to preach on pentecost sunday.
00:27:53.727 --> 00:27:56.830
I came here to remind you you need
00:27:57.597 --> 00:28:00.767
The holy spirit. we.
00:28:00.767 --> 00:28:00.767
