Hagee Ministries | Matt Hagee - The God You Can Depend On | July 20, 2025

Music
00:00:00.093 --> 00:00:13.873
Pastor matt hagee: we live
00:00:14.808 --> 00:00:15.408
Pastor matt hagee: we live in a world where people
00:00:15.475 --> 00:00:16.109
In a world where people crave dependability.
00:00:16.176 --> 00:00:20.113
Crave dependability. they'll even sacrifice quality
00:00:20.180 --> 00:00:22.749
They'll even sacrifice quality if they have certainty.
00:00:22.816 --> 00:00:24.984
If they have certainty. have you ever heard
00:00:25.051 --> 00:00:25.752
Have you ever heard somebody say,
00:00:25.819 --> 00:00:26.386
Somebody say, "it's not the best food
00:00:26.453 --> 00:00:27.720
"it's not the best food but it will do."
00:00:27.787 --> 00:00:31.691
But it will do." and the reason that they say
00:00:31.758 --> 00:00:32.892
And the reason that they say this is because they are
00:00:32.959 --> 00:00:34.861
This is because they are willing to believe that they
00:00:34.928 --> 00:00:37.564
Willing to believe that they can put up with less as long
00:00:37.630 --> 00:00:39.099
Can put up with less as long as they know what to expect.
00:00:39.165 --> 00:00:42.602
As they know what to expect. sometimes, we try to make up
00:00:42.669 --> 00:00:44.037
Sometimes, we try to make up for the difference by adding
00:00:44.104 --> 00:00:45.939
For the difference by adding a little effort of our own
00:00:46.005 --> 00:00:47.440
A little effort of our own and seeing if we can't make
00:00:47.507 --> 00:00:48.775
And seeing if we can't make what is not good enough
00:00:48.842 --> 00:00:50.343
What is not good enough better through our work.
00:00:50.410 --> 00:00:54.681
Better through our work. the problem with this is that
00:00:54.747 --> 00:00:56.716
The problem with this is that although it's fine in the world
00:00:56.783 --> 00:00:58.251
Although it's fine in the world we live in, it has no place
00:00:58.318 --> 00:00:59.986
We live in, it has no place in the relationship that
00:01:00.053 --> 00:01:00.987
In the relationship that we have with god.
00:01:01.054 --> 00:01:03.256
We have with god. our god is dependable.
00:01:03.323 --> 00:01:05.725
Our god is dependable. our god is faithful and true.
00:01:05.792 --> 00:01:08.228
Our god is faithful and true. our god has never made
00:01:08.294 --> 00:01:09.329
Our god has never made a promise that he didn't keep.
00:01:09.395 --> 00:01:11.865
A promise that he didn't keep. and when we expect less
00:01:11.931 --> 00:01:13.399
And when we expect less than what he said,
00:01:13.466 --> 00:01:14.667
Than what he said, he doesn't look at
00:01:14.734 --> 00:01:15.635
He doesn't look at us and give us grace,
00:01:15.702 --> 00:01:16.836
Us and give us grace, he looks at us and is insulted
00:01:16.903 --> 00:01:18.938
He looks at us and is insulted because he has never failed.
00:01:19.005 --> 00:01:22.709
Because he has never failed. and there is no amount
00:01:22.775 --> 00:01:23.977
And there is no amount of our effort or our work
00:01:24.043 --> 00:01:25.979
Of our effort or our work that we can add to what
00:01:26.045 --> 00:01:27.347
That we can add to what he's done to make
00:01:27.413 --> 00:01:28.081
He's done to make it any better.
00:01:28.148 --> 00:01:30.917
It any better. this morning,
00:01:30.984 --> 00:01:31.551
This morning, i've come to tell you
00:01:31.618 --> 00:01:32.452
I've come to tell you that we have a god
00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:33.753
That we have a god you can depend on.
00:01:33.820 --> 00:01:35.121
You can depend on. we have a god who is faithful
00:01:35.188 --> 00:01:36.656
We have a god who is faithful from generation to generation.
00:01:36.723 --> 00:01:38.424
From generation to generation. we have a god whose mercies
00:01:38.491 --> 00:01:40.360
We have a god whose mercies are renewed every morning.
00:01:40.426 --> 00:01:41.761
Are renewed every morning. we have a god who is able to do,
00:01:41.828 --> 00:01:43.663
We have a god who is able to do, as ephesians said,
00:01:43.730 --> 00:01:45.198
As ephesians said, "exceedingly and abundantly
00:01:45.265 --> 00:01:46.766
"exceedingly and abundantly above all that we could ask,
00:01:46.833 --> 00:01:48.168
Above all that we could ask, think, or imagine."
00:01:48.234 --> 00:01:49.502
Think, or imagine." our god has never failed
00:01:49.569 --> 00:01:51.738
Our god has never failed to keep one promise.
00:01:51.804 --> 00:01:53.173
To keep one promise. if he said it,
00:01:53.239 --> 00:01:54.274
If he said it, he has done it.
00:01:54.340 --> 00:01:55.441
He has done it. you can depend on him in an hour
00:01:55.508 --> 00:01:57.610
You can depend on him in an hour of need because he is
00:01:57.677 --> 00:01:58.778
Of need because he is the god who is a provider.
00:01:58.845 --> 00:02:00.346
The god who is a provider. you can depend on him in a day
00:02:00.413 --> 00:02:02.215
You can depend on him in a day of sickness because he
00:02:02.282 --> 00:02:03.316
Of sickness because he is a god who is a healer.
00:02:03.383 --> 00:02:04.851
Is a god who is a healer. you can depend on him no matter
00:02:04.918 --> 00:02:06.653
You can depend on him no matter the storm that you're going
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:07.954
The storm that you're going through because he
00:02:08.021 --> 00:02:09.088
Through because he is the one who rides upon
00:02:09.155 --> 00:02:10.557
Is the one who rides upon the wings of the storm,
00:02:10.623 --> 00:02:11.824
The wings of the storm, and he is the god who calms
00:02:11.891 --> 00:02:13.626
And he is the god who calms the winds and the waves.
00:02:13.693 --> 00:02:14.861
The winds and the waves. if you're abandoned
00:02:14.928 --> 00:02:15.962
If you're abandoned and alone by others,
00:02:16.029 --> 00:02:17.263
And alone by others, you can depend on god
00:02:17.330 --> 00:02:18.631
You can depend on god because he said,
00:02:18.698 --> 00:02:19.365
Because he said, "i'll never leave you
00:02:19.432 --> 00:02:20.300
"i'll never leave you and i'll never forsake you."
00:02:20.366 --> 00:02:21.534
And i'll never forsake you." some may fail you,
00:02:21.601 --> 00:02:23.136
Some may fail you, but god will not.
00:02:23.203 --> 00:02:24.404
But god will not. others will forget you,
00:02:24.470 --> 00:02:25.805
Others will forget you, but god has not.
00:02:25.872 --> 00:02:27.240
But god has not. your enemies will turn on you,
00:02:27.307 --> 00:02:28.975
Your enemies will turn on you, but he said when they
00:02:29.042 --> 00:02:30.009
But he said when they come at you,
00:02:30.076 --> 00:02:30.910
Come at you, he'll prepare a table before
00:02:30.977 --> 00:02:32.378
He'll prepare a table before you in the presence
00:02:32.445 --> 00:02:33.680
You in the presence of your enemies.
00:02:33.746 --> 00:02:34.647
Of your enemies. he'll serve you
00:02:34.714 --> 00:02:35.582
He'll serve you with his goodness,
00:02:35.648 --> 00:02:36.482
With his goodness, with his grace,
00:02:36.549 --> 00:02:37.383
With his grace, with his mercy,
00:02:37.450 --> 00:02:38.251
With his mercy, with his loving-kindness,
00:02:38.318 --> 00:02:39.452
With his loving-kindness, with his favor.
00:02:39.519 --> 00:02:40.720
With his favor. why?
00:02:40.787 --> 00:02:41.354
Why? because he is a god
00:02:41.421 --> 00:02:42.555
Because he is a god that you can depend on.
00:02:42.622 --> 00:02:44.123
That you can depend on. give the lord
00:02:44.190 --> 00:02:44.991
Give the lord a handclap of praise.
00:02:45.058 --> 00:02:46.025
[applause]
00:02:46.459 --> 00:02:52.398
But how often do we do this?
00:02:53.066 --> 00:02:55.368
But how often do we do this? focus our attention,
00:02:55.435 --> 00:02:56.569
Focus our attention, give our full devotion
00:02:56.636 --> 00:02:57.737
Give our full devotion to god's promise?
00:02:57.804 --> 00:03:00.840
To god's promise? we don't hold fast
00:03:00.907 --> 00:03:01.941
We don't hold fast for the 40 minutes
00:03:02.008 --> 00:03:02.842
For the 40 minutes we're in church.
00:03:02.909 --> 00:03:03.643
[laughing]
00:03:09.282 --> 00:03:15.421
We have a generation
00:03:16.289 --> 00:03:17.090
We have a generation that suffers from dramatic
00:03:17.156 --> 00:03:18.725
That suffers from dramatic attention deficit disorder.
00:03:18.791 --> 00:03:23.363
Attention deficit disorder. and what we hear in this verse
00:03:23.429 --> 00:03:25.265
And what we hear in this verse is that when it comes to god's
00:03:25.331 --> 00:03:26.766
Is that when it comes to god's promise in our life,
00:03:26.833 --> 00:03:28.101
Promise in our life, it's not up to him,
00:03:28.167 --> 00:03:29.569
It's not up to him, it's up to us to do the work
00:03:29.636 --> 00:03:31.371
It's up to us to do the work that's necessary to receive it.
00:03:31.437 --> 00:03:34.407
That's necessary to receive it. and it's simply hold fast,
00:03:34.474 --> 00:03:37.710
And it's simply hold fast, don't waver.
00:03:37.777 --> 00:03:39.746
Don't waver. well, we can hold fast
00:03:39.812 --> 00:03:40.680
Well, we can hold fast on sunday morning,
00:03:40.747 --> 00:03:41.614
On sunday morning, and then when pastor
00:03:41.681 --> 00:03:42.515
And then when pastor gets the blessing
00:03:42.582 --> 00:03:43.449
Gets the blessing and we get dismissed,
00:03:43.516 --> 00:03:44.584
And we get dismissed, we start to waver
00:03:44.651 --> 00:03:45.485
We start to waver in the parking lot.
00:03:45.551 --> 00:03:47.920
In the parking lot. "do i really believe
00:03:47.987 --> 00:03:48.721
"do i really believe what i heard today?"
00:03:48.788 --> 00:03:51.691
What i heard today?" often times,
00:03:51.758 --> 00:03:52.725
Often times, we get so fickle because
00:03:52.792 --> 00:03:53.893
We get so fickle because we put more faith in our
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:55.028
We put more faith in our feelings than we do
00:03:55.094 --> 00:03:55.895
Feelings than we do the reality of god's word.
00:03:55.962 --> 00:03:59.699
The reality of god's word. and sometimes,
00:03:59.766 --> 00:04:00.566
And sometimes, we start to waver because god
00:04:00.633 --> 00:04:02.502
We start to waver because god didn't do it when
00:04:02.568 --> 00:04:03.369
Didn't do it when we wanted him to.
00:04:03.436 --> 00:04:06.072
We wanted him to. you need to remember this,
00:04:06.139 --> 00:04:07.073
You need to remember this, god's delay is not denial.
00:04:07.140 --> 00:04:10.576
God's delay is not denial. just because you have to wait
00:04:10.643 --> 00:04:12.745
Just because you have to wait doesn't mean god's not working.
00:04:12.812 --> 00:04:15.915
Doesn't mean god's not working. and so many times,
00:04:15.982 --> 00:04:16.949
And so many times, we want god to work
00:04:17.016 --> 00:04:18.151
We want god to work on our schedule.
00:04:18.217 --> 00:04:20.753
On our schedule. we wanna pull up our heavenly
00:04:20.820 --> 00:04:22.488
We wanna pull up our heavenly amazon prime app.
00:04:22.555 --> 00:04:23.956
[laughter]
00:04:24.390 --> 00:04:25.525
And tell god when and where
00:04:25.892 --> 00:04:27.026
And tell god when and where to deliver the blessing
00:04:27.093 --> 00:04:28.294
To deliver the blessing that we're asking for.
00:04:28.361 --> 00:04:31.698
That we're asking for. you need to understand that
00:04:31.764 --> 00:04:32.732
You need to understand that his ways are not our ways.
00:04:32.799 --> 00:04:36.269
His ways are not our ways. we want god to be a provider,
00:04:36.336 --> 00:04:37.637
We want god to be a provider, but we don't wanna
00:04:37.704 --> 00:04:38.371
But we don't wanna carry the need.
00:04:38.438 --> 00:04:39.706
Carry the need. we want god to bring us victory,
00:04:39.772 --> 00:04:41.140
We want god to bring us victory, but we don't wanna
00:04:41.207 --> 00:04:41.774
But we don't wanna face a conflict.
00:04:41.841 --> 00:04:42.675
Face a conflict. we want god to give deliverance,
00:04:42.742 --> 00:04:44.077
We want god to give deliverance, but we don't wanna
00:04:44.143 --> 00:04:44.777
But we don't wanna go to the furnace like meshach,
00:04:44.844 --> 00:04:46.379
Go to the furnace like meshach, shadrach, and abednego.
00:04:46.446 --> 00:04:47.580
Shadrach, and abednego. that's not how god operates.
00:04:47.647 --> 00:04:48.748
[applause]
00:04:49.349 --> 00:04:52.018
In the bible,
00:04:52.418 --> 00:04:52.885
In the bible, he told his children,
00:04:52.952 --> 00:04:53.486
He told his children, "i am the lord,
00:04:53.553 --> 00:04:54.220
"i am the lord, i do not change."
00:04:54.287 --> 00:04:56.289
I do not change." which means that
00:04:56.356 --> 00:04:57.490
Which means that whatever god has done,
00:04:57.557 --> 00:04:59.025
Whatever god has done, god is doing,
00:04:59.092 --> 00:05:00.026
God is doing, and god will do again.
00:05:00.093 --> 00:05:02.462
And god will do again. and when you look at something
00:05:02.528 --> 00:05:03.496
And when you look at something he has done like providing,
00:05:03.563 --> 00:05:05.431
He has done like providing, and healing,
00:05:05.498 --> 00:05:06.099
And healing, and delivering,
00:05:06.165 --> 00:05:06.766
And delivering, you can decide that based
00:05:06.833 --> 00:05:08.101
You can decide that based on what he has done,
00:05:08.167 --> 00:05:09.402
On what he has done, he is doing it.
00:05:09.469 --> 00:05:10.570
He is doing it. he's still providing,
00:05:10.636 --> 00:05:11.471
He's still providing, he's still healing,
00:05:11.537 --> 00:05:12.305
He's still healing, he's still delivering,
00:05:12.372 --> 00:05:13.172
He's still delivering, and he will do it again.
00:05:13.239 --> 00:05:14.707
And he will do it again. he'll provide again,
00:05:14.774 --> 00:05:15.775
He'll provide again, he'll heal again,
00:05:15.842 --> 00:05:16.709
He'll heal again, he'll deliver again.
00:05:16.776 --> 00:05:18.678
He'll deliver again. but when you see this pattern
00:05:18.745 --> 00:05:19.879
But when you see this pattern in other things,
00:05:19.946 --> 00:05:21.147
In other things, you need to realize
00:05:21.214 --> 00:05:22.215
You need to realize it's just as true.
00:05:22.281 --> 00:05:24.517
It's just as true. and here's the pattern
00:05:24.584 --> 00:05:25.451
And here's the pattern that uses in his word.
00:05:25.518 --> 00:05:28.454
That uses in his word. he gives one of his children
00:05:28.521 --> 00:05:29.655
He gives one of his children a promise and then they have
00:05:29.722 --> 00:05:31.657
A promise and then they have to endure until the promise
00:05:31.724 --> 00:05:33.526
To endure until the promise comes to pass.
00:05:33.593 --> 00:05:35.995
Comes to pass. can you do that?
00:05:36.062 --> 00:05:38.097
Can you do that? can you continue to count
00:05:38.164 --> 00:05:39.298
Can you continue to count on the lord when others
00:05:39.365 --> 00:05:40.366
On the lord when others tell you you should quit?
00:05:40.433 --> 00:05:42.268
Tell you you should quit? can you continue to trust
00:05:42.335 --> 00:05:43.336
Can you continue to trust in his word when some tell you
00:05:43.403 --> 00:05:44.737
In his word when some tell you they don't believe it?
00:05:44.804 --> 00:05:46.506
They don't believe it? can you count on god
00:05:46.572 --> 00:05:47.673
Can you count on god like david said in psalms 27,
00:05:47.740 --> 00:05:49.675
Like david said in psalms 27, "wait on the lord
00:05:49.742 --> 00:05:50.510
"wait on the lord and be of good courage,
00:05:50.576 --> 00:05:51.577
And be of good courage, and he will
00:05:51.644 --> 00:05:52.412
And he will strengthen your heart?"
00:05:52.478 --> 00:05:54.680
Strengthen your heart?" god is good and he's merciful,
00:05:54.747 --> 00:05:56.416
God is good and he's merciful, but god will not be taken
00:05:56.482 --> 00:05:57.817
But god will not be taken for granted.
00:05:57.884 --> 00:06:00.486
For granted. and therefore,
00:06:00.553 --> 00:06:01.154
And therefore, we have to hold fast
00:06:01.220 --> 00:06:03.623
We have to hold fast without wavering.
00:06:03.689 --> 00:06:06.659
Without wavering. that's called faith.
00:06:06.726 --> 00:06:09.362
That's called faith. in hebrews, it's the substance
00:06:09.429 --> 00:06:10.463
In hebrews, it's the substance of things hoped for,
00:06:10.530 --> 00:06:11.397
Of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
00:06:11.464 --> 00:06:13.032
The evidence of things not seen. but when you read the bible,
00:06:13.099 --> 00:06:14.167
But when you read the bible, it tells us clearly,
00:06:14.233 --> 00:06:15.234
It tells us clearly, "the just shall live by faith."
00:06:15.301 --> 00:06:18.337
"the just shall live by faith." we hear in the new testament,
00:06:18.404 --> 00:06:19.806
We hear in the new testament, "faith is the victory
00:06:19.872 --> 00:06:21.007
"faith is the victory that overcomes the world."
00:06:21.073 --> 00:06:22.241
That overcomes the world." the bible tells us
00:06:22.308 --> 00:06:23.209
The bible tells us without faith,
00:06:23.276 --> 00:06:24.076
Without faith, it is impossible to please god.
00:06:24.143 --> 00:06:25.678
It is impossible to please god. jesus said in the gospel
00:06:25.745 --> 00:06:26.813
Jesus said in the gospel of mark,
00:06:26.879 --> 00:06:27.380
Of mark, "have faith in god."
00:06:27.447 --> 00:06:29.348
"have faith in god." say that with me,
00:06:29.415 --> 00:06:30.116
Say that with me, "have faith in god."
00:06:30.183 --> 00:06:34.420
"have faith in god." and then the sentence ends,
00:06:34.487 --> 00:06:37.723
And then the sentence ends, which means you can't add
00:06:37.790 --> 00:06:38.958
Which means you can't add anything to it.
00:06:39.025 --> 00:06:41.761
Anything to it. the bible is filled
00:06:41.828 --> 00:06:42.628
The bible is filled with imperfect people,
00:06:42.695 --> 00:06:44.864
With imperfect people, but in spite
00:06:44.931 --> 00:06:45.631
But in spite of their imperfections,
00:06:45.698 --> 00:06:46.699
Of their imperfections, they had faith in god.
00:06:46.766 --> 00:06:49.435
They had faith in god. i believe that a lot of
00:06:49.502 --> 00:06:50.269
I believe that a lot of christians would have a much
00:06:50.336 --> 00:06:51.437
Christians would have a much better life if they would quit
00:06:51.504 --> 00:06:52.738
Better life if they would quit worrying about being perfect
00:06:52.805 --> 00:06:54.207
Worrying about being perfect and remember to be faithful.
00:06:54.273 --> 00:06:55.508
[applause]
00:06:56.642 --> 00:07:02.782
Abraham wasn't perfect,
00:07:03.282 --> 00:07:04.350
Abraham wasn't perfect, but romans 4:3 says he believed
00:07:04.417 --> 00:07:06.352
But romans 4:3 says he believed god and it was counted
00:07:06.419 --> 00:07:08.921
God and it was counted to him as righteousness.
00:07:08.988 --> 00:07:10.690
To him as righteousness. now, that sounds simple but
00:07:10.756 --> 00:07:11.958
Now, that sounds simple but put yourself in abraham's shoes.
00:07:12.024 --> 00:07:14.927
Put yourself in abraham's shoes. he believed god.
00:07:14.994 --> 00:07:17.897
He believed god. and god asked him
00:07:17.964 --> 00:07:18.731
And god asked him to do some hard things.
00:07:18.798 --> 00:07:20.700
To do some hard things. the first thing that god speaks
00:07:20.766 --> 00:07:21.934
The first thing that god speaks to abraham about is getting
00:07:22.001 --> 00:07:23.536
To abraham about is getting away from his father,
00:07:23.603 --> 00:07:24.837
Away from his father, and away from his family,
00:07:24.904 --> 00:07:26.339
And away from his family, and away from his nation.
00:07:26.405 --> 00:07:29.008
And away from his nation. abraham grew up in
00:07:29.075 --> 00:07:30.042
Abraham grew up in a polytheistic world where
00:07:30.109 --> 00:07:31.744
A polytheistic world where they worshipped many gods,
00:07:31.811 --> 00:07:33.579
They worshipped many gods, and god wanted one who
00:07:33.646 --> 00:07:34.947
And god wanted one who would follow him
00:07:35.014 --> 00:07:35.748
Would follow him and him alone.
00:07:35.815 --> 00:07:37.550
And him alone. now, it's easy
00:07:37.617 --> 00:07:38.551
Now, it's easy to abandon a mud hut.
00:07:38.618 --> 00:07:41.687
To abandon a mud hut. "abraham, leave your
00:07:41.754 --> 00:07:42.488
"abraham, leave your father's house."
00:07:42.555 --> 00:07:43.289
Father's house." "yes lord, thy will be done."
00:07:43.356 --> 00:07:47.393
"yes lord, thy will be done." but abraham didn't
00:07:47.460 --> 00:07:48.327
But abraham didn't grow up in poverty.
00:07:48.394 --> 00:07:50.363
Grow up in poverty. when you understand the culture
00:07:50.429 --> 00:07:52.265
When you understand the culture that abraham was a part of
00:07:52.331 --> 00:07:53.399
That abraham was a part of and how his family
00:07:53.466 --> 00:07:54.233
And how his family was positioned in it,
00:07:54.300 --> 00:07:55.368
Was positioned in it, abraham was surrounded
00:07:55.434 --> 00:07:56.736
Abraham was surrounded by wealth, he had comfort,
00:07:56.802 --> 00:07:58.638
By wealth, he had comfort, he had protection.
00:07:58.704 --> 00:07:59.705
He had protection. and god says,
00:07:59.772 --> 00:08:00.439
And god says, "i want you to leave everything
00:08:00.506 --> 00:08:02.408
"i want you to leave everything that you know and you're
00:08:02.475 --> 00:08:03.342
That you know and you're comfortable with,
00:08:03.409 --> 00:08:04.310
Comfortable with, and i want you to follow me."
00:08:04.377 --> 00:08:06.646
And i want you to follow me." now, how do we know
00:08:06.712 --> 00:08:07.680
Now, how do we know that abraham believed god?
00:08:07.747 --> 00:08:09.782
That abraham believed god? he did it.
00:08:09.849 --> 00:08:12.051
He did it. you don't tell people
00:08:12.118 --> 00:08:13.019
You don't tell people you believe,
00:08:13.085 --> 00:08:13.719
You believe, you show people you believe.
00:08:13.786 --> 00:08:15.388
[applause]
00:08:16.289 --> 00:08:22.194
Then the bible says
00:08:23.696 --> 00:08:24.397
Then the bible says that he dwelt in tents.
00:08:24.463 --> 00:08:27.567
That he dwelt in tents. he lived in a madison avenue,
00:08:27.633 --> 00:08:30.736
He lived in a madison avenue, brownstone mansion.
00:08:30.803 --> 00:08:33.806
Brownstone mansion. and god says, "leave.
00:08:33.873 --> 00:08:36.776
And god says, "leave. i'm gonna show you a city
00:08:36.842 --> 00:08:38.044
I'm gonna show you a city whose builder and maker is god,"
00:08:38.110 --> 00:08:39.745
Whose builder and maker is god," and he lived in a tent.
00:08:39.812 --> 00:08:43.816
And he lived in a tent. and the fact that sarah stayed
00:08:43.883 --> 00:08:45.151
And the fact that sarah stayed with him is a miracle.
00:08:45.217 --> 00:08:48.187
[laughter]
00:08:48.888 --> 00:08:50.389
Hebrews 11:10,
00:08:52.925 --> 00:08:54.594
Hebrews 11:10, it says that abraham believed
00:08:54.660 --> 00:08:56.862
It says that abraham believed for a city whose foundations
00:08:56.929 --> 00:08:58.764
For a city whose foundations and whose builder was god.
00:08:58.831 --> 00:09:00.466
And whose builder was god. even when he didn't see it,
00:09:00.533 --> 00:09:02.134
Even when he didn't see it, he believed it.
00:09:02.201 --> 00:09:03.769
He believed it. and when god asked him
00:09:03.836 --> 00:09:04.637
And when god asked him for his son and giving
00:09:04.704 --> 00:09:06.272
For his son and giving the life of isaac
00:09:06.339 --> 00:09:07.440
The life of isaac was unreasonable,
00:09:07.506 --> 00:09:08.407
Was unreasonable, the bible says by faith,
00:09:08.474 --> 00:09:09.942
The bible says by faith, he obeyed.
00:09:10.009 --> 00:09:10.910
He obeyed. in hebrews 11:19,
00:09:10.977 --> 00:09:12.411
In hebrews 11:19, it says that abraham was
00:09:12.478 --> 00:09:13.913
It says that abraham was accounting that god was able
00:09:13.980 --> 00:09:16.148
Accounting that god was able to raise him from the dead.
00:09:16.215 --> 00:09:17.350
To raise him from the dead. now, that word accounting means
00:09:17.416 --> 00:09:19.518
Now, that word accounting means that abraham had done the math,
00:09:19.585 --> 00:09:21.387
That abraham had done the math, and he added it up, and he said,
00:09:21.454 --> 00:09:23.089
And he added it up, and he said, "if god has been faithful
00:09:23.155 --> 00:09:24.590
"if god has been faithful through all of these things,
00:09:24.657 --> 00:09:25.891
Through all of these things, god is able to do this thing."
00:09:25.958 --> 00:09:28.761
God is able to do this thing." even when it seemed
00:09:28.828 --> 00:09:29.695
Even when it seemed absolutely unreasonable,
00:09:29.762 --> 00:09:31.631
Absolutely unreasonable, abraham still reasoned
00:09:31.697 --> 00:09:33.499
Abraham still reasoned that god was dependable
00:09:33.566 --> 00:09:34.900
That god was dependable because god kept his word.
00:09:34.967 --> 00:09:37.770
Because god kept his word. do you have that kind
00:09:37.837 --> 00:09:38.571
Do you have that kind of faith that even when
00:09:38.638 --> 00:09:39.538
Of faith that even when it seems unreasonable,
00:09:39.605 --> 00:09:41.273
It seems unreasonable, you can come to the conclusion
00:09:41.340 --> 00:09:42.742
You can come to the conclusion that god is still dependable?
00:09:42.808 --> 00:09:47.546
That god is still dependable? how quickly we give up on god.
00:09:47.613 --> 00:09:50.349
How quickly we give up on god. and yet god promised that
00:09:50.416 --> 00:09:51.751
And yet god promised that if he said it, he'll do it.
00:09:51.817 --> 00:09:54.086
If he said it, he'll do it. galatians 6 says,
00:09:54.153 --> 00:09:55.087
Galatians 6 says, "do not grow weary
00:09:55.154 --> 00:09:56.122
"do not grow weary while doing good.
00:09:56.188 --> 00:09:58.057
While doing good. don't give up on god,
00:09:58.124 --> 00:09:59.291
Don't give up on god, he'll never give up on you."
00:09:59.358 --> 00:10:01.761
He'll never give up on you." consider abraham,
00:10:01.827 --> 00:10:03.763
Consider abraham, back to hebrews 11 where
00:10:03.829 --> 00:10:05.898
Back to hebrews 11 where he looked for a city
00:10:05.965 --> 00:10:07.400
He looked for a city whose builder was god.
00:10:07.466 --> 00:10:09.835
Whose builder was god. this is something that should
00:10:09.902 --> 00:10:10.803
This is something that should encourage you and challenge
00:10:10.870 --> 00:10:11.971
Encourage you and challenge you at the same time.
00:10:12.038 --> 00:10:13.973
You at the same time. abraham got his promise
00:10:14.040 --> 00:10:16.342
Abraham got his promise of god showing him a city
00:10:16.409 --> 00:10:18.277
Of god showing him a city in the book of genesis.
00:10:18.344 --> 00:10:21.514
In the book of genesis. you say,
00:10:21.580 --> 00:10:22.081
You say, "now, we read it in hebrews,"
00:10:22.148 --> 00:10:22.982
"now, we read it in hebrews," but abraham died in genesis.
00:10:23.049 --> 00:10:26.152
But abraham died in genesis. so, he had to get it over here.
00:10:26.218 --> 00:10:29.088
So, he had to get it over here. and yet,
00:10:29.155 --> 00:10:29.689
And yet, he lived the rest of his
00:10:29.755 --> 00:10:30.823
He lived the rest of his natural life in desert tents,
00:10:30.890 --> 00:10:34.660
Natural life in desert tents, constantly telling
00:10:34.727 --> 00:10:35.895
Constantly telling all who asked,
00:10:35.961 --> 00:10:37.229
All who asked, "i'm look for a city
00:10:37.296 --> 00:10:38.664
"i'm look for a city whose builder and maker is god."
00:10:38.731 --> 00:10:40.332
Whose builder and maker is god." "abraham, why did you leave
00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:42.601
"abraham, why did you leave your father's house?"
00:10:42.668 --> 00:10:43.869
Your father's house?" "i'm looking for a city
00:10:43.936 --> 00:10:44.837
"i'm looking for a city whose builder and maker is god."
00:10:44.904 --> 00:10:46.405
Whose builder and maker is god." "abraham, why did you give up
00:10:46.472 --> 00:10:48.074
"abraham, why did you give up your earthly inheritance?"
00:10:48.140 --> 00:10:49.508
Your earthly inheritance?" "i'm looking for a city whose
00:10:49.575 --> 00:10:50.910
"i'm looking for a city whose builder and maker is god."
00:10:50.976 --> 00:10:52.344
Builder and maker is god." "abraham, why didn't you
00:10:52.411 --> 00:10:53.913
"abraham, why didn't you stay in dad's business?"
00:10:53.979 --> 00:10:55.147
Stay in dad's business?" "i'm looking for a city whose
00:10:55.214 --> 00:10:57.183
"i'm looking for a city whose builder and maker is god."
00:10:57.249 --> 00:11:01.187
Builder and maker is god." abraham lived and he died,
00:11:01.253 --> 00:11:02.788
Abraham lived and he died, and he never saw the city.
00:11:02.855 --> 00:11:06.659
And he never saw the city. abraham goes to eternity,
00:11:06.726 --> 00:11:08.694
Abraham goes to eternity, where he is now,
00:11:08.761 --> 00:11:12.198
Where he is now, and yet he still
00:11:12.264 --> 00:11:13.132
And yet he still hasn't seen the city.
00:11:13.199 --> 00:11:15.968
Hasn't seen the city. this promise has now been
00:11:16.035 --> 00:11:17.203
This promise has now been extended for thousands of years.
00:11:17.269 --> 00:11:22.475
Extended for thousands of years. and yet in revelation 21,
00:11:22.541 --> 00:11:25.444
And yet in revelation 21, we read john,
00:11:25.511 --> 00:11:26.579
We read john, the revelator, saying,
00:11:26.645 --> 00:11:27.313
The revelator, saying, "i, john, saw the holy city,
00:11:27.379 --> 00:11:29.949
"i, john, saw the holy city, a new jerusalem
00:11:30.015 --> 00:11:31.050
A new jerusalem coming down out of heaven,
00:11:31.117 --> 00:11:32.618
Coming down out of heaven, and he who sat on
00:11:32.685 --> 00:11:33.886
And he who sat on the throne said to me,
00:11:33.953 --> 00:11:35.521
The throne said to me, 'it is done.'"
00:11:35.588 --> 00:11:38.791
'it is done.'" what did jesus say to john,
00:11:38.858 --> 00:11:40.426
What did jesus say to john, "it is done."
00:11:40.493 --> 00:11:42.361
"it is done." what's he gonna say to abraham
00:11:42.428 --> 00:11:44.230
What's he gonna say to abraham who received this promise all
00:11:44.296 --> 00:11:45.598
Who received this promise all the way back in genesis?
00:11:45.664 --> 00:11:46.932
The way back in genesis? "it is done.
00:11:46.999 --> 00:11:49.235
"it is done. abraham, i might not have
00:11:49.301 --> 00:11:50.402
Abraham, i might not have done it in your lifetime,
00:11:50.469 --> 00:11:51.971
Done it in your lifetime, i might have taken 4,000 years
00:11:52.037 --> 00:11:54.306
I might have taken 4,000 years to do it,
00:11:54.373 --> 00:11:55.040
To do it, but i promised you
00:11:55.107 --> 00:11:56.208
But i promised you i would do it,
00:11:56.275 --> 00:11:56.976
I would do it, and when i do it,
00:11:57.042 --> 00:11:58.077
And when i do it, it will forever

It will forever and always be done."
00:11:59.145 --> 00:12:01.280
And always be done." if god has made you a promise,

Want him to do it, it may not come the way

It may not come the way you thought it would come,
00:12:10.990 --> 00:12:12.124
You thought it would come, but the grass will wither
00:12:12.191 --> 00:12:13.626
But the grass will wither and the flower will fade,
00:12:13.692 --> 00:12:14.960
And the flower will fade, but the word of the lord
00:12:15.027 --> 00:12:16.629
But the word of the lord will endure forever.
00:12:16.695 --> 00:12:18.931
Will endure forever. whatever god has promised you,

Whatever god has promised you, he will do it.
00:12:24.570 --> 00:12:28.641
He will do it. if he said,
00:12:28.707 --> 00:12:29.208
If he said, "i'll show you great

For an answer, you need to recognize that

00:16:40.225 --> 00:16:41.060
For good to those who love the lord."
00:16:41.126 --> 00:16:41.693
Love the lord." but rather than endure,
00:16:41.760 --> 00:16:43.262
But rather than endure, we say we've had enough.
00:16:43.328 --> 00:16:45.898
We say we've had enough. "i tried it and it didn't work."
00:16:45.964 --> 00:16:48.100
"i tried it and it didn't work." rather than press on,
00:16:48.167 --> 00:16:49.034
Rather than press on, we pass out.
00:16:49.101 --> 00:16:49.968
We pass out. rather than stay faithful,
00:16:50.035 --> 00:16:51.236
Rather than stay faithful, we faint.
00:16:51.303 --> 00:16:51.837
We faint. god wants you to hear today,
00:16:51.904 --> 00:16:53.305
God wants you to hear today, don't quit,
00:16:53.372 --> 00:16:54.840
Don't quit, don't stop now.
00:16:54.907 --> 00:16:55.941
Don't stop now. you've been through
00:16:56.008 --> 00:16:56.909
You've been through too much to give in.
00:16:56.975 --> 00:16:58.243
Too much to give in. you're this close
00:16:58.310 --> 00:16:59.511
You're this close to the finish line.
00:16:59.578 --> 00:17:00.245
To the finish line. just take one more step of faith
00:17:00.312 --> 00:17:02.414
Just take one more step of faith and i'll show you great
00:17:02.481 --> 00:17:03.816
And i'll show you great and mighty things
00:17:03.882 --> 00:17:04.516
And mighty things that you know not.
00:17:04.583 --> 00:17:05.584
That you know not. whatever you're asking
00:17:05.651 --> 00:17:06.618
Whatever you're asking god to do,
00:17:06.685 --> 00:17:07.486
God to do, don't stop asking today.
00:17:07.553 --> 00:17:09.655
Don't stop asking today. keep knocking,
00:17:09.721 --> 00:17:10.589
Keep knocking, keep seeking,
00:17:10.656 --> 00:17:11.590
Keep seeking, keep knowing that if you ask,
00:17:11.657 --> 00:17:13.425
Keep knowing that if you ask, he is faithful
00:17:13.492 --> 00:17:14.560
He is faithful to do exceedingly,
00:17:14.626 --> 00:17:15.861
To do exceedingly, abundantly, above all you
00:17:15.928 --> 00:17:17.396
Abundantly, above all you could ask, think, or imagine.
00:17:17.463 --> 00:17:19.131
Could ask, think, or imagine. give the lord
00:17:19.198 --> 00:17:19.832
Give the lord a handclap of praise.
00:17:19.898 --> 00:17:20.732
[applause]
00:17:21.133 --> 00:17:27.606
In every situation,
00:17:28.107 --> 00:17:29.575
In every situation, there will come a moment
00:17:29.641 --> 00:17:30.542
There will come a moment when quit looks good.
00:17:30.609 --> 00:17:33.846
When quit looks good. don't do it because those who
00:17:33.912 --> 00:17:36.348
Don't do it because those who endure to the end,
00:17:36.415 --> 00:17:38.283
Endure to the end, the same shall be saved.
00:17:38.350 --> 00:17:42.821
The same shall be saved. one of the things that we have
00:17:42.888 --> 00:17:43.856
One of the things that we have to do in order to stand fast
00:17:43.922 --> 00:17:46.258
To do in order to stand fast without wavering is that we have
00:17:46.325 --> 00:17:49.128
Without wavering is that we have to be dependent upon god rather
00:17:49.194 --> 00:17:54.366
To be dependent upon god rather than just ask for him
00:17:54.433 --> 00:17:55.634
Than just ask for him to be available.
00:17:55.701 --> 00:17:58.303
To be available. most people believe in god
00:17:58.370 --> 00:17:59.605
Most people believe in god but we only believe in god
00:17:59.671 --> 00:18:01.106
But we only believe in god for his availability.
00:18:01.173 --> 00:18:03.442
For his availability. meaning that we want him
00:18:03.509 --> 00:18:04.676
Meaning that we want him to be there when we ask.
00:18:04.743 --> 00:18:07.412
To be there when we ask. kinda like a concierge.
00:18:07.479 --> 00:18:10.015
Kinda like a concierge. you go to a nice hotel,
00:18:10.082 --> 00:18:10.949
You go to a nice hotel, you pick up the phone,
00:18:11.016 --> 00:18:11.683
You pick up the phone, and they say,
00:18:11.750 --> 00:18:12.184
And they say, "yes, mr. hagee,
00:18:12.251 --> 00:18:12.885
"yes, mr. hagee, how may i help you?"
00:18:12.951 --> 00:18:14.920
How may i help you?" we want god to do
00:18:14.987 --> 00:18:15.888
We want god to do the same thing.
00:18:15.954 --> 00:18:17.923
The same thing. we say something in prayer,
00:18:17.990 --> 00:18:19.491
We say something in prayer, and we want god to say,
00:18:19.558 --> 00:18:20.225
And we want god to say, "yes matthew,
00:18:20.292 --> 00:18:21.160
"yes matthew, what would you like?"
00:18:21.226 --> 00:18:23.795
What would you like?" that's availability,
00:18:23.862 --> 00:18:26.231
That's availability, and that's not how god works.
00:18:26.298 --> 00:18:28.700
And that's not how god works. god doesn't want for you
00:18:28.767 --> 00:18:30.802
God doesn't want for you to require his availability,
00:18:30.869 --> 00:18:32.371
To require his availability, god wants you to be
00:18:32.437 --> 00:18:33.405
God wants you to be dependent upon him.
00:18:33.472 --> 00:18:36.408
Dependent upon him. now, what's the difference
00:18:36.475 --> 00:18:38.644
Now, what's the difference between dependability
00:18:38.710 --> 00:18:39.978
Between dependability and availability?
00:18:40.045 --> 00:18:42.447
And availability? i had a doctor talk to me one
00:18:42.514 --> 00:18:43.949
I had a doctor talk to me one time about the priority
00:18:44.016 --> 00:18:46.118
Time about the priority of medical problems.
00:18:46.185 --> 00:18:48.387
Of medical problems. and it didn't take long
00:18:48.453 --> 00:18:49.288
And it didn't take long for me to understand it,
00:18:49.354 --> 00:18:50.355
For me to understand it, so i believe i could share
00:18:50.422 --> 00:18:51.623
So i believe i could share it with all of you.
00:18:51.690 --> 00:18:52.524
It with all of you. and though some of you may not
00:18:52.591 --> 00:18:53.759
And though some of you may not have too much background
00:18:53.825 --> 00:18:54.826
Have too much background in medicine, it shouldn't
00:18:54.893 --> 00:18:55.761
In medicine, it shouldn't be too hard to get.
00:18:55.827 --> 00:18:56.962
Be too hard to get. he said,
00:18:57.029 --> 00:18:57.529
He said, "here's the priority
00:18:57.596 --> 00:18:58.430
"here's the priority of medical emergencies."
00:18:58.497 --> 00:19:00.432
Of medical emergencies." he said,
00:19:00.499 --> 00:19:00.933
He said, "there are breathing problems,
00:19:00.999 --> 00:19:03.335
"there are breathing problems, and everything else."
00:19:03.402 --> 00:19:06.872
And everything else." think about it.
00:19:06.939 --> 00:19:09.107
Think about it. i mean, if your foot hurts,
00:19:09.174 --> 00:19:11.443
I mean, if your foot hurts, that's a problem,
00:19:11.510 --> 00:19:12.144
That's a problem, but if you can't breathe,
00:19:12.211 --> 00:19:14.279
But if you can't breathe, you're not real worried
00:19:14.346 --> 00:19:15.047
You're not real worried about your foot.
00:19:15.113 --> 00:19:18.350
About your foot. he said,
00:19:18.417 --> 00:19:18.850
He said, "there's breathing problems,
00:19:18.917 --> 00:19:20.819
"there's breathing problems, and then there's
00:19:20.886 --> 00:19:21.386
And then there's everything else."
00:19:21.453 --> 00:19:23.355
Everything else." because you can live about
00:19:23.422 --> 00:19:24.256
Because you can live about three minutes without breath
00:19:24.323 --> 00:19:26.191
Three minutes without breath and then it's over.
00:19:26.258 --> 00:19:29.695
And then it's over. so, when you're dependent
00:19:29.761 --> 00:19:30.829
So, when you're dependent upon something,
00:19:30.896 --> 00:19:31.597
Upon something, you can't live without it.
00:19:31.663 --> 00:19:33.832
You can't live without it. i depend upon my
00:19:33.899 --> 00:19:35.067
I depend upon my heart and my lungs.
00:19:35.133 --> 00:19:36.902
Heart and my lungs. if they stop working,
00:19:36.969 --> 00:19:38.003
If they stop working, i stop living.
00:19:38.070 --> 00:19:38.971
I stop living. i love having my
00:19:39.037 --> 00:19:40.372
I love having my hands available,
00:19:40.439 --> 00:19:41.840
Hands available, but if i lose the availability
00:19:41.907 --> 00:19:43.642
But if i lose the availability of my hands and keep
00:19:43.709 --> 00:19:45.043
Of my hands and keep the opportunity to have
00:19:45.110 --> 00:19:46.044
The opportunity to have my heart and lungs,
00:19:46.111 --> 00:19:46.945
My heart and lungs, i can continue to live.
00:19:47.012 --> 00:19:49.314
I can continue to live. whenever you begin to become
00:19:49.381 --> 00:19:50.582
Whenever you begin to become dependent upon god,
00:19:50.649 --> 00:19:51.883
Dependent upon god, you're going to realize
00:19:51.950 --> 00:19:52.884
You're going to realize something very quickly,
00:19:52.951 --> 00:19:53.885
Something very quickly, you can't live without him.
00:19:53.952 --> 00:19:56.288
You can't live without him. you can't do without him.
00:19:56.355 --> 00:19:57.823
You can't do without him. there's not a day that goes
00:19:57.889 --> 00:19:58.991
There's not a day that goes by when you won't need him.
00:19:59.057 --> 00:20:00.859
By when you won't need him. in everything great and small,
00:20:00.926 --> 00:20:02.694
In everything great and small, whether you like it or not,
00:20:02.761 --> 00:20:03.996
Whether you like it or not, you're dependent upon him.
00:20:04.062 --> 00:20:05.964
You're dependent upon him. whether you know it or not,
00:20:06.031 --> 00:20:07.199
Whether you know it or not, you're dependent
00:20:07.266 --> 00:20:08.066
You're dependent upon him, physically.
00:20:08.133 --> 00:20:09.968
Upon him, physically. the bible says,
00:20:10.035 --> 00:20:10.669
The bible says, "in him we live,
00:20:10.736 --> 00:20:11.737
"in him we live, and we move,
00:20:11.803 --> 00:20:12.371
And we move, and we have our being."
00:20:12.437 --> 00:20:13.538
And we have our being." that means when you get up
00:20:13.605 --> 00:20:14.773
That means when you get up and you breathe air,
00:20:14.840 --> 00:20:15.807
And you breathe air, and you blink your eyes,
00:20:15.874 --> 00:20:16.775
And you blink your eyes, and your ears work,
00:20:16.842 --> 00:20:17.776
And your ears work, and you get to talk,
00:20:17.843 --> 00:20:18.710
And you get to talk, god gave you
00:20:18.777 --> 00:20:19.678
God gave you the ability to do that.
00:20:19.745 --> 00:20:20.979
The ability to do that. you're depending upon him.
00:20:21.046 --> 00:20:22.447
You're depending upon him. financially, you're dependent
00:20:22.514 --> 00:20:24.149
Financially, you're dependent upon him because it says
00:20:24.216 --> 00:20:25.651
Upon him because it says he is the lord who gives you
00:20:25.717 --> 00:20:27.019
He is the lord who gives you the power to get wealth.
00:20:27.085 --> 00:20:28.453
The power to get wealth. the world that we live in,
00:20:28.520 --> 00:20:29.988
The world that we live in, we're dependent upon him
00:20:30.055 --> 00:20:31.089
We're dependent upon him because the bible says
00:20:31.156 --> 00:20:32.324
Because the bible says that his word
00:20:32.391 --> 00:20:33.292
That his word is the framework of the world
00:20:33.358 --> 00:20:35.027
Is the framework of the world as it is established.
00:20:35.093 --> 00:20:35.961
As it is established. everything in nature,
00:20:36.028 --> 00:20:37.696
Everything in nature, god holds in
00:20:37.763 --> 00:20:38.597
God holds in the palm of his hand,
00:20:38.664 --> 00:20:39.665
The palm of his hand, and without him doing something
00:20:39.731 --> 00:20:41.466
And without him doing something on our behalf
00:20:41.533 --> 00:20:42.401
On our behalf on a daily basis,
00:20:42.467 --> 00:20:43.602
On a daily basis, we couldn't exist.
00:20:43.669 --> 00:20:44.603
[applause]
00:20:45.270 --> 00:20:52.110
But we wanna behave
00:20:52.644 --> 00:20:53.178
But we wanna behave like independent free agents.
00:20:53.245 --> 00:20:55.814
Like independent free agents. we wanna behave like
00:20:55.881 --> 00:20:56.782
We wanna behave like we get to negotiate.
00:20:56.848 --> 00:20:58.917
We get to negotiate. "well god, if you do this,
00:20:58.984 --> 00:21:00.118
"well god, if you do this, i'll do that."
00:21:00.185 --> 00:21:00.819
I'll do that." no.
00:21:00.886 --> 00:21:02.387
No. when you're dependent,
00:21:02.454 --> 00:21:03.355
When you're dependent, you don't negotiate.
00:21:03.422 --> 00:21:05.657
You don't negotiate. and the truth is,
00:21:05.724 --> 00:21:06.358
And the truth is, you can't truly
00:21:06.425 --> 00:21:07.326
You can't truly be thankful to god,
00:21:07.392 --> 00:21:08.527
Be thankful to god, and you can't give him
00:21:08.593 --> 00:21:09.494
And you can't give him the kind of praise
00:21:09.561 --> 00:21:10.595
The kind of praise he's worthy of
00:21:10.662 --> 00:21:11.396
He's worthy of until you really recognize
00:21:11.463 --> 00:21:12.931
Until you really recognize how dependent you are upon him.
00:21:12.998 --> 00:21:16.401
How dependent you are upon him. the fact that you can't do
00:21:16.468 --> 00:21:17.669
The fact that you can't do anything without him
00:21:17.736 --> 00:21:18.804
Anything without him and he's still good to you.
00:21:18.870 --> 00:21:22.607
And he's still good to you. the fact that you betray him,
00:21:22.674 --> 00:21:24.142
The fact that you betray him, and he still loves you.
00:21:24.209 --> 00:21:27.679
And he still loves you. the fact that he's cleansed
00:21:27.746 --> 00:21:29.414
The fact that he's cleansed you with his loving-kindness
00:21:29.481 --> 00:21:31.083
You with his loving-kindness of your transgressions,
00:21:31.149 --> 00:21:33.385
Of your transgressions, and you still bend towards sin.
00:21:33.452 --> 00:21:37.923
And you still bend towards sin. only when you understand how
00:21:37.989 --> 00:21:39.257
Only when you understand how faithful he is do you truly
00:21:39.324 --> 00:21:41.760
Faithful he is do you truly begin to offer him the praise
00:21:41.827 --> 00:21:43.729
Begin to offer him the praise that he's worthy of.
00:21:43.795 --> 00:21:47.232
That he's worthy of. that's why david said,
00:21:47.299 --> 00:21:48.033
That's why david said, "my help comes from the lord."
00:21:48.100 --> 00:21:51.303
"my help comes from the lord." that's why we
00:21:51.370 --> 00:21:51.870
That's why we read in the psalms,
00:21:51.937 --> 00:21:52.437
Read in the psalms, "if it hadn't been for the lord
