I want you to look with me in deuteronomy 22,
00:01:14.419 --> 00:01:17.856
In deuteronomy 22, "if a bird's nest happens

"if a bird's nest happens to be before you along the way
00:01:21.693 --> 00:01:26.498
To be before you along the way in any tree or on the ground,

00:01:51.423 --> 00:01:54.860
That it may be well with you." this is something that seems
00:01:54.927 --> 00:01:58.463
This is something that seems so amazing to me that god says,
00:01:58.530 --> 00:02:01.466
So amazing to me that god says, if you do what i just said,
00:02:01.533 --> 00:02:03.302
If you do what i just said, if you treat the mother bird
00:02:03.368 --> 00:02:05.204

It will be well with you that you may prolong your days.

That you may prolong your days. i'll give you my title

I'll give you my title in just a moment,

In just a moment, but i want us
00:02:19.284 --> 00:02:20.752
But i want us to understand something
00:02:20.819 --> 00:02:22.087
To understand something very important this morning,
00:02:22.154 --> 00:02:24.690
Very important this morning, that is the little things.
00:02:24.756 --> 00:02:26.458
That is the little things. it's the small, seemingly
00:02:26.525 --> 00:02:28.260
It's the small, seemingly insignificant things of attitude
00:02:28.327 --> 00:02:30.762
Insignificant things of attitude and heart and internal stuff
00:02:30.829 --> 00:02:34.499
And heart and internal stuff that god sees.
00:02:34.566 --> 00:02:36.101
That god sees. man looks on the outward,
00:02:36.168 --> 00:02:37.436
Man looks on the outward, god sees the heart.
00:02:37.502 --> 00:02:39.605
God sees the heart. and when we please the lord
00:02:39.671 --> 00:02:41.273
And when we please the lord in little things in the kingdom,
00:02:41.340 --> 00:02:44.176
In little things in the kingdom, little things are huge things.
00:02:44.243 --> 00:02:47.946
Little things are huge things. big doors swing on
00:02:48.013 --> 00:02:50.649
Big doors swing on little hinges.
00:02:50.716 --> 00:02:52.718
Little hinges. doors are huge compared
00:02:52.784 --> 00:02:55.454
Doors are huge compared to the tiny hinges
00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:57.956
To the tiny hinges that they hang upon.
00:02:58.023 --> 00:03:00.158
That they hang upon. hinges are small compared
00:03:00.225 --> 00:03:02.127
Hinges are small compared to the doors that they open
00:03:02.194 --> 00:03:04.763
To the doors that they open to our lives and the things
00:03:04.830 --> 00:03:07.099
To our lives and the things that we enter into by that
00:03:07.165 --> 00:03:08.967
That we enter into by that tiny hinge the door hangs on.
00:03:09.034 --> 00:03:12.337
Tiny hinge the door hangs on. for example, when moses
00:03:12.404 --> 00:03:16.408
For example, when moses was 80 years of age,
00:03:16.475 --> 00:03:19.111
Was 80 years of age, he had been in the wilderness
00:03:19.177 --> 00:03:20.912
He had been in the wilderness for 40 years,
00:03:20.979 --> 00:03:21.747
For 40 years, tending his
00:03:21.813 --> 00:03:22.481
Tending his father-in-law's sheep.
00:03:22.547 --> 00:03:24.216
Father-in-law's sheep. and the scripture said he saw
00:03:24.283 --> 00:03:25.884
And the scripture said he saw a bush that was burning
00:03:25.951 --> 00:03:27.819
A bush that was burning and he noticed it.
00:03:27.886 --> 00:03:30.188
And he noticed it. and the thing that caught
00:03:30.255 --> 00:03:31.223
And the thing that caught his attention is that it burned,
00:03:31.290 --> 00:03:33.592
His attention is that it burned, but it was not consumed.
00:03:33.659 --> 00:03:35.794
But it was not consumed. and something in him,
00:03:35.861 --> 00:03:37.896
And something in him, something --
00:03:37.963 --> 00:03:38.597
Something -- he had seen it many times.
00:03:38.664 --> 00:03:39.498
He had seen it many times. it's very normal to see
00:03:39.564 --> 00:03:41.800
It's very normal to see a plant catch on fire.
00:03:41.867 --> 00:03:45.404
A plant catch on fire. it gets up to 120 degrees.
00:03:45.470 --> 00:03:47.839
It gets up to 120 degrees. it's combustible.
00:03:47.906 --> 00:03:49.274
It's combustible. it's a fire that just
00:03:49.341 --> 00:03:52.477
It's a fire that just happens because it was dry.
00:03:52.544 --> 00:03:54.713
Happens because it was dry. and so, when this happened,
00:03:54.780 --> 00:03:57.115
And so, when this happened, it wasn't something he had
00:03:57.182 --> 00:03:58.450
It wasn't something he had never seen before.
00:03:58.517 --> 00:03:59.685
Never seen before. it shouldn't have
00:03:59.751 --> 00:04:00.252
It shouldn't have piqued his interest,
00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:01.420
Piqued his interest, but five words changes
00:04:01.486 --> 00:04:03.455
But five words changes the whole human race.
00:04:03.522 --> 00:04:05.590
The whole human race. five words would change
00:04:05.657 --> 00:04:08.827
Five words would change everything about our lives.
00:04:08.894 --> 00:04:11.063
Everything about our lives. the bible said in the scripture,
00:04:11.129 --> 00:04:13.565
The bible said in the scripture, when he saw the bush and it was
00:04:13.632 --> 00:04:15.600
When he saw the bush and it was not consumed with the fire,
00:04:15.667 --> 00:04:19.404
Not consumed with the fire, it kept burning.
00:04:19.471 --> 00:04:20.739
It kept burning. he turned aside to see,
00:04:20.806 --> 00:04:24.042
He turned aside to see, five words.
00:04:24.109 --> 00:04:24.543
Five words. he turned aside to see.
00:04:24.609 --> 00:04:25.944
He turned aside to see. had he not turned aside to see
00:04:26.011 --> 00:04:28.046
Had he not turned aside to see when he got there it was not
00:04:28.113 --> 00:04:29.414
When he got there it was not a burning bush it was god
00:04:29.481 --> 00:04:31.316
A burning bush it was god and god's voice and god's call.
00:04:31.383 --> 00:04:34.086
And god's voice and god's call. and that burning bush said,
00:04:34.152 --> 00:04:35.487
And that burning bush said, "take off your shoes,
00:04:35.554 --> 00:04:36.688
"take off your shoes, you're standing on holy ground."
00:04:36.755 --> 00:04:38.290
You're standing on holy ground." and that burning bush began
00:04:38.357 --> 00:04:40.058
And that burning bush began to give him the plan of god
00:04:40.125 --> 00:04:42.361
To give him the plan of god for a nation to be born
00:04:42.427 --> 00:04:44.429
For a nation to be born out of bondage.
00:04:44.496 --> 00:04:46.665
Out of bondage. that plan of god
00:04:46.732 --> 00:04:47.966
That plan of god was communicated through
00:04:48.033 --> 00:04:49.267
Was communicated through that burning bush.
00:04:49.334 --> 00:04:50.602
That burning bush. had he not turned aside
00:04:50.669 --> 00:04:52.070
To say five words,
00:04:52.170 --> 00:04:54.005
To say five words, the big door
00:04:54.072 --> 00:04:54.973
The big door of the ten commandments
00:04:55.040 --> 00:04:56.575
Of the ten commandments would swing on five words.
00:04:56.641 --> 00:04:58.977
The nation of israel being in
00:04:59.077 --> 00:05:02.581
The nation of israel being in existence would swing on those
00:05:02.647 --> 00:05:05.050
Existence would swing on those little hinges of five words.
00:05:05.117 --> 00:05:07.652
Little hinges of five words. the messiah coming through
00:05:07.719 --> 00:05:10.088
The messiah coming through the tribe of judah would
00:05:10.155 --> 00:05:12.357
The tribe of judah would ultimately swing.
00:05:12.424 --> 00:05:14.359
Ultimately swing. the first five books
00:05:14.426 --> 00:05:16.228
The first five books of the bible from
00:05:16.294 --> 00:05:17.062
Of the bible from the story of creation,
00:05:17.129 --> 00:05:18.864
The story of creation, all the way up to
00:05:18.930 --> 00:05:20.165
All the way up to the tabernacle plan in
00:05:20.232 --> 00:05:21.767
The tabernacle plan in the wilderness, the sacrifices,
00:05:21.833 --> 00:05:23.335
The wilderness, the sacrifices, the priesthood.
00:05:23.402 --> 00:05:24.436
The priesthood. all of those things,
00:05:24.503 --> 00:05:26.138
All of those things, types and shadows of christ,
00:05:26.204 --> 00:05:28.039
Types and shadows of christ, they came from five words
00:05:28.106 --> 00:05:30.876
They came from five words of a door that
00:05:30.942 --> 00:05:31.977
Of a door that swung unseemingly --
00:05:32.043 --> 00:05:34.112
Swung unseemingly -- it was a normal day.
00:05:34.179 --> 00:05:35.614
It was a normal day. it was not a special day.
00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:37.749
It was not a special day. he felt no chill bumps,
00:05:37.816 --> 00:05:39.751
He felt no chill bumps, he saw no angel.
00:05:39.818 --> 00:05:41.486
He saw no angel. he just got up.
00:05:41.553 --> 00:05:42.654
He just got up. he was on his way
00:05:42.721 --> 00:05:43.822
He was on his way to go somewhere.
00:05:43.889 --> 00:05:44.890
To go somewhere. he sees from a distance
00:05:44.956 --> 00:05:46.591
He sees from a distance a burning bush, and he turns
00:05:46.658 --> 00:05:49.394
A burning bush, and he turns aside to go see.
00:05:49.461 --> 00:05:51.930
Aside to go see. and when he does,
00:05:51.997 --> 00:05:53.632
And when he does, god noticed that
00:05:53.698 --> 00:05:55.333
God noticed that tiny obedience and open
00:05:55.400 --> 00:05:58.570
Tiny obedience and open massive doors that are
00:05:58.637 --> 00:06:01.573
Massive doors that are almost mind boggling to us.
00:06:01.640 --> 00:06:05.243
Almost mind boggling to us. what can happen if you show
00:06:05.310 --> 00:06:08.246
What can happen if you show the mother bird mercy?
00:06:08.313 --> 00:06:12.617
The mother bird mercy? when you understand this
00:06:12.684 --> 00:06:14.853
When you understand this and you see it
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:16.955
And you see it the mother bird is a type,
00:06:17.022 --> 00:06:21.226
The mother bird is a type, i believe, of our mothers.
00:06:21.293 --> 00:06:24.362
I believe, of our mothers. the bible said,
00:06:24.429 --> 00:06:26.164
The bible said, "honor your father
00:06:26.231 --> 00:06:27.632
"honor your father and your mother."
00:06:27.699 --> 00:06:28.733
And your mother." and then it gives this
00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:30.402
And then it gives this add on condition.
00:06:30.469 --> 00:06:33.805
Add on condition. "honor your father and mother
00:06:33.872 --> 00:06:35.407
"honor your father and mother as the lord god commands you
00:06:35.474 --> 00:06:36.975
As the lord god commands you that your days be long
00:06:37.042 --> 00:06:40.111
That your days be long and that it go well
00:06:40.178 --> 00:06:41.379
And that it go well with you in the land
00:06:41.446 --> 00:06:42.781
With you in the land the lord god will give you."
00:06:42.848 --> 00:06:45.550
The lord god will give you." there is an undeniable blessing
00:06:45.617 --> 00:06:47.719
There is an undeniable blessing that is connected
00:06:47.786 --> 00:06:48.787
That is connected to the mother bird
00:06:48.854 --> 00:06:50.088
To the mother bird and how you treat your mother.
00:06:50.155 --> 00:06:54.125
And how you treat your mother. and god says it will
00:06:54.192 --> 00:06:55.760
And god says it will go well with you.
00:06:55.827 --> 00:06:57.629
Go well with you. and i will bless you
00:06:57.696 --> 00:06:59.130
And i will bless you and i will prolong your days,
00:06:59.197 --> 00:07:02.267
And i will prolong your days, if you will obey this small
00:07:02.334 --> 00:07:05.637
If you will obey this small hinge of honoring your mother.
00:07:05.704 --> 00:07:10.208
Hinge of honoring your mother. be careful,
00:07:10.275 --> 00:07:11.776
Be careful, be careful, teenagers,
00:07:11.843 --> 00:07:14.112
Be careful, teenagers, be careful husbands.

Grandchildren, how you treat the mother bird.
00:07:22.621 --> 00:07:23.622
The mother bird. i god, i see that stuff.
00:07:23.688 --> 00:07:27.559
I god, i see that stuff. i don't care how much
00:07:27.626 --> 00:07:28.960
I don't care how much you preach, how much you sing.
00:07:29.027 --> 00:07:31.630
You preach, how much you sing. i don't care
00:07:31.696 --> 00:07:32.531
I don't care how religious you look,
00:07:32.597 --> 00:07:35.200
How religious you look, when you bring your bible.
00:07:35.267 --> 00:07:37.669
When you bring your bible. i watch how you show mercy
00:07:37.736 --> 00:07:41.840
I watch how you show mercy to people that i allowed
00:07:41.907 --> 00:07:44.109
To people that i allowed across your life,
00:07:44.175 --> 00:07:46.077
Across your life, that you could crush them
00:07:46.144 --> 00:07:48.179
That you could crush them if you wanted to,
00:07:48.246 --> 00:07:49.915
If you wanted to, but instead you obey me.
00:07:49.981 --> 00:07:53.151
But instead you obey me. it's a big door attached.
00:07:53.218 --> 00:07:56.021
[applause]
00:07:56.321 --> 00:07:57.022
You know, when you
00:07:57.589 --> 00:07:59.824
You know, when you understand that,
00:07:59.891 --> 00:08:02.260
Understand that, the purpose for the scripture
00:08:02.327 --> 00:08:03.795
The purpose for the scripture is how much more if we
00:08:03.862 --> 00:08:07.432
Is how much more if we show it to a mother bird,
00:08:07.499 --> 00:08:10.435
Show it to a mother bird, how much more if we show it
00:08:10.502 --> 00:08:11.836
How much more if we show it to our mother physically
00:08:11.903 --> 00:08:14.472
To our mother physically or our father, or our brother,
00:08:14.539 --> 00:08:17.809
Or our father, or our brother, or our sister, or our brothers
00:08:17.876 --> 00:08:19.644
Or our sister, or our brothers and sisters in
00:08:19.711 --> 00:08:20.645
And sisters in the body of christ or
00:08:20.712 --> 00:08:22.147
The body of christ or the people that we work with?
00:08:22.213 --> 00:08:24.082
The people that we work with? we're supposed to be
00:08:24.149 --> 00:08:25.317
We're supposed to be kind people.
00:08:25.383 --> 00:08:26.985
Kind people. we're supposed
00:08:27.052 --> 00:08:27.552
We're supposed to be nice people.
00:08:27.619 --> 00:08:29.220
To be nice people. we're supposed to be
00:08:29.287 --> 00:08:30.522
We're supposed to be when nobody's watching,
00:08:30.589 --> 00:08:32.424
When nobody's watching, our heart is to be kind
00:08:32.490 --> 00:08:35.961
Our heart is to be kind and merciful to people.
00:08:36.027 --> 00:08:37.329
And merciful to people. this is christianity in action
00:08:37.395 --> 00:08:39.698
This is christianity in action is shining light in
00:08:39.764 --> 00:08:41.399
Is shining light in a dark world.
00:08:41.466 --> 00:08:42.500
A dark world. we don't react to people
00:08:42.567 --> 00:08:44.235
We don't react to people like other people react.
00:08:44.302 --> 00:08:46.171
Like other people react. we don't say things
00:08:46.237 --> 00:08:47.672
We don't say things like other people say.
00:08:47.739 --> 00:08:51.009
Like other people say. i'll never forget,
00:08:51.076 --> 00:08:52.010
I'll never forget, as long as i live.
00:08:52.077 --> 00:08:54.546
As long as i live. we had been given
00:08:54.613 --> 00:08:55.614
We had been given for christmas, bb guns.
00:08:55.680 --> 00:08:58.416
For christmas, bb guns. my mother sitting down here
00:08:58.483 --> 00:08:59.751
My mother sitting down here and her and my dad,
00:08:59.818 --> 00:09:01.019
And her and my dad, they always had
00:09:01.086 --> 00:09:01.653
They always had great christmases for us.
00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:03.088
Great christmases for us. we didn't get a lot,
00:09:03.154 --> 00:09:04.422
We didn't get a lot, but what we got, we liked.
00:09:04.489 --> 00:09:07.859
But what we got, we liked. and it was given with love.
00:09:07.926 --> 00:09:10.195
And it was given with love. and man, i was so happy.
00:09:10.261 --> 00:09:12.263
And man, i was so happy. i was just
00:09:12.330 --> 00:09:12.831
I was just a little bitty fellow.
00:09:12.897 --> 00:09:15.200
A little bitty fellow. and i said, i am going hunting.
00:09:15.266 --> 00:09:18.436
And i said, i am going hunting. we lived on a in street
00:09:18.503 --> 00:09:21.840
We lived on a in street around a junkyard.
00:09:21.906 --> 00:09:22.273
Around a junkyard. it's literally junkyard.
00:09:22.340 --> 00:09:23.008
It's literally junkyard. there were beer bottles
00:09:23.074 --> 00:09:24.075
There were beer bottles to shoot all day long.
00:09:24.142 --> 00:09:25.377
To shoot all day long. and we would set them up
00:09:25.443 --> 00:09:27.646
And we would set them up and shoot them
00:09:27.712 --> 00:09:28.480
And shoot them and all kinds of stuff.
00:09:28.546 --> 00:09:31.416
And all kinds of stuff. and, i remember one day i went
00:09:31.483 --> 00:09:33.518
And, i remember one day i went out and i saw the most beautiful
00:09:33.585 --> 00:09:35.754
Out and i saw the most beautiful blue bird sitting on
00:09:35.820 --> 00:09:37.122
Blue bird sitting on the power line.
00:09:37.188 --> 00:09:39.724
The power line. and i had my bb gun.
00:09:39.791 --> 00:09:41.192
And i had my bb gun. it had to be god.
00:09:41.259 --> 00:09:42.727
[laughter]
00:09:43.061 --> 00:09:43.862
And i pointed that thing
00:09:44.262 --> 00:09:46.464
And i pointed that thing and 99.9% of the time i would
00:09:46.531 --> 00:09:49.734
And 99.9% of the time i would have never hit it.
00:09:49.801 --> 00:09:51.569
Have never hit it. that's very small target.
00:09:51.636 --> 00:09:54.673
That's very small target. i shot that thing
00:09:54.739 --> 00:09:56.307
I shot that thing and i nailed it
00:09:56.374 --> 00:09:57.642
And i nailed it and it flopped and fell over.
00:09:57.709 --> 00:10:00.945
And it flopped and fell over. and i ran and grabbed
00:10:01.012 --> 00:10:02.847
And i ran and grabbed that dead bird by the claws.
00:10:02.914 --> 00:10:05.517
That dead bird by the claws. and i ran to the front door
00:10:05.583 --> 00:10:07.352
And i ran to the front door of the parsonage next
00:10:07.419 --> 00:10:08.520
Of the parsonage next to the church in henderson.
00:10:08.586 --> 00:10:10.455
To the church in henderson. and i pounded on the door
00:10:10.522 --> 00:10:12.390
And i pounded on the door and my mother came to the door
00:10:12.457 --> 00:10:14.793
And my mother came to the door and she looked down and i was
00:10:14.859 --> 00:10:16.995
And she looked down and i was holding that with my bb gun.
00:10:17.062 --> 00:10:19.030
Holding that with my bb gun. i was so excited.
00:10:19.097 --> 00:10:20.732
I was so excited. i felt like a man.
00:10:20.799 --> 00:10:22.267
I felt like a man. and i was just standing there.
00:10:22.333 --> 00:10:24.602
And i was just standing there. "mama, look, mom, look, look."
00:10:24.669 --> 00:10:27.806
"mama, look, mom, look, look." and all she said,
00:10:27.872 --> 00:10:31.309
And all she said, "the bible said, son,
00:10:31.376 --> 00:10:33.011
"the bible said, son, a righteous man regardeth
00:10:33.078 --> 00:10:34.946
A righteous man regardeth the life of a beast.
00:10:35.013 --> 00:10:38.550
The life of a beast. go bury that thing
00:10:38.616 --> 00:10:39.217
Go bury that thing in the backyard."
00:10:39.284 --> 00:10:42.020
In the backyard." and she closed the door
00:10:42.087 --> 00:10:43.755
And she closed the door and it marked me for life.
00:10:43.822 --> 00:10:46.024
[laughter]
00:10:46.324 --> 00:10:47.592
I'm standing there with
00:10:47.892 --> 00:10:48.960
I'm standing there with that dead bird.
00:10:49.027 --> 00:10:51.496
That dead bird. had i known the book
00:10:51.563 --> 00:10:52.797
Had i known the book like she knew it,
00:10:52.864 --> 00:10:55.700
Like she knew it, i would have had more wind
00:10:55.767 --> 00:10:57.202
I would have had more wind of the holy ghost to my back
00:10:57.268 --> 00:10:59.838
Of the holy ghost to my back if i had just let blue robin
00:10:59.904 --> 00:11:03.141
Or whatever it was go.
00:11:03.241 --> 00:11:07.078
Or whatever it was go. and god says,
00:11:07.145 --> 00:11:08.146
And god says, "it'll go well with you.
00:11:08.213 --> 00:11:09.547
"it'll go well with you. i won't forget it.
00:11:09.614 --> 00:11:10.548
I won't forget it. i'll put the holy ghost wind
00:11:10.615 --> 00:11:11.983
I'll put the holy ghost wind behind your back.
00:11:12.050 --> 00:11:12.984
Behind your back. you'll have a force
00:11:13.051 --> 00:11:14.018
You'll have a force behind you because you've
00:11:14.085 --> 00:11:15.954
Behind you because you've treated mother bird right.
00:11:16.020 --> 00:11:18.790
Treated mother bird right. galatians 6 said, "let us not
00:11:18.857 --> 00:11:22.360
Galatians 6 said, "let us not be weary in well doing."
00:11:22.427 --> 00:11:25.196
Be weary in well doing." don't ever stop doing it
00:11:25.263 --> 00:11:27.065
Don't ever stop doing it when you know you're doing what
00:11:27.132 --> 00:11:28.299
When you know you're doing what is well in god's eyes.
00:11:28.366 --> 00:11:30.602
Is well in god's eyes. "for in due season,
00:11:30.668 --> 00:11:32.103
"for in due season, we will reap if we faint not."
00:11:32.170 --> 00:11:34.839
We will reap if we faint not." good people are kind
00:11:34.906 --> 00:11:36.141
Good people are kind to their animals.
00:11:36.207 --> 00:11:38.009
To their animals. they care for their animals,
00:11:38.076 --> 00:11:39.377
They care for their animals, even caring for animals.
00:11:39.444 --> 00:11:41.846
Even caring for animals. the bible said for
00:11:41.913 --> 00:11:43.314
The bible said for the wicked is cruel.
00:11:43.381 --> 00:11:45.216
The wicked is cruel. some people are so mean,
00:11:45.283 --> 00:11:46.951
Some people are so mean, so wicked, so cruel,
00:11:47.018 --> 00:11:49.220
So wicked, so cruel, they can't do anything without
00:11:49.287 --> 00:11:51.489
They can't do anything without having meanness attached to it.
00:11:51.556 --> 00:11:57.061
Having meanness attached to it. there's a little twist
00:11:57.128 --> 00:11:58.096
There's a little twist of meanness in some people
00:11:58.163 --> 00:12:00.832
Of meanness in some people and that stuff
00:12:00.899 --> 00:12:02.033
And that stuff should not be in us.
00:12:02.100 --> 00:12:05.737
Should not be in us. in christianity, you must have
00:12:05.804 --> 00:12:07.906
In christianity, you must have the spirit of christ that
00:12:07.972 --> 00:12:10.041
The spirit of christ that you get smoked,
00:12:10.108 --> 00:12:11.509
You get smoked, you get convicted,
00:12:11.576 --> 00:12:13.211
You get convicted, you feel a check in your spirit
00:12:13.278 --> 00:12:15.980
You feel a check in your spirit when your attitude is wrong
00:12:16.047 --> 00:12:18.149
When your attitude is wrong and you're just letting it fly.
00:12:18.216 --> 00:12:20.518
And you're just letting it fly. something's not submitted
00:12:20.585 --> 00:12:23.354
Something's not submitted to the cross until we
00:12:23.421 --> 00:12:24.989
To the cross until we reach that point.
00:12:25.056 --> 00:12:29.427
Reach that point. god, wash it out of us.
00:12:29.494 --> 00:12:32.063
God, wash it out of us. god, whatever you've got to do
00:12:32.130 --> 00:12:34.132
God, whatever you've got to do to work on my tongue.
00:12:34.199 --> 00:12:36.935
To work on my tongue. on my mind, on my temper,
00:12:37.001 --> 00:12:38.870
On my mind, on my temper, on my disposition,
00:12:38.937 --> 00:12:40.205
On my disposition, on my attitude,
00:12:40.271 --> 00:12:41.706
On my attitude, on how i treat my people,
00:12:41.773 --> 00:12:44.309
On how i treat my people, my family, my loved ones,
00:12:44.375 --> 00:12:46.611
My family, my loved ones, my employees, my --
00:12:46.678 --> 00:12:48.279
My employees, my -- the people that i work with.
00:12:48.346 --> 00:12:49.881
The people that i work with. we must have that
00:12:49.948 --> 00:12:51.883
We must have that spirit of kindness.
00:12:51.950 --> 00:12:55.186
Not that we can't --
00:12:55.286 --> 00:12:56.788
Not that we can't -- at times you have
00:12:56.855 --> 00:12:57.555
At times you have to deal with things.
00:12:57.622 --> 00:12:58.590
To deal with things. at times not all meetings
00:12:58.656 --> 00:13:00.091
At times not all meetings are pleasant.
00:13:00.158 --> 00:13:02.694
Are pleasant. say amen, somebody.
00:13:02.760 --> 00:13:08.233
Say amen, somebody. but the end result is,
00:13:08.299 --> 00:13:10.501
But the end result is, i'm going into this meeting.
00:13:10.568 --> 00:13:12.003
I'm going into this meeting. i want everything to be
00:13:12.070 --> 00:13:13.037
Aired out.
00:13:13.137 --> 00:13:13.771
Aired out. i want every
00:13:13.838 --> 00:13:14.739
I want every issue to be covered.
00:13:14.806 --> 00:13:16.040
Issue to be covered. family, we're gonna
00:13:16.107 --> 00:13:17.041
Family, we're gonna go through some stuff
00:13:17.108 --> 00:13:18.076
Go through some stuff and we're gonna talk about this,
00:13:18.142 --> 00:13:19.611
And we're gonna talk about this, but when it's all said and done,
00:13:19.677 --> 00:13:21.512
But when it's all said and done, it's not blaming you
00:13:21.579 --> 00:13:23.114
It's not blaming you and you blaming me.
00:13:23.181 --> 00:13:24.382
And you blaming me. and i'm so right.
00:13:24.449 --> 00:13:25.350
And i'm so right. and you're so wrong,
00:13:25.416 --> 00:13:26.184
And you're so wrong, it's a spirit of restoration
00:13:26.251 --> 00:13:28.620
It's a spirit of restoration that says now that
00:13:28.686 --> 00:13:30.722
That says now that we've aired it out
00:13:30.788 --> 00:13:31.923
We've aired it out and everything is --
00:13:31.990 --> 00:13:33.157
And everything is -- give me your neck,
00:13:33.224 --> 00:13:34.592
Give me your neck, come here and hug me
00:13:34.659 --> 00:13:35.960
Come here and hug me and i'll hug you
00:13:36.027 --> 00:13:36.761
And i'll hug you and let's move forward.
00:13:36.828 --> 00:13:38.730
And let's move forward. that's what it's all about.
00:13:38.796 --> 00:13:41.833
[applause]
00:13:42.166 --> 00:13:43.668
And how you treat
00:13:43.968 --> 00:13:44.736
And how you treat the mother bird
00:13:44.802 --> 00:13:46.704
The mother bird is a big deal to god.
00:13:46.771 --> 00:13:52.443
Is a big deal to god. david was a man after god's
00:13:52.510 --> 00:13:53.945
David was a man after god's own heart.
00:13:54.012 --> 00:13:55.480
Own heart. why?
00:13:55.546 --> 00:13:56.614
Why? i believe he --
00:13:56.681 --> 00:13:57.515
I believe he -- i believe the big doors
00:13:57.582 --> 00:13:59.017
I believe the big doors for david swung when god
00:13:59.083 --> 00:14:01.085
For david swung when god set back and watch saul try
00:14:01.152 --> 00:14:03.021
Set back and watch saul try to kill him and saul's son,
00:14:03.087 --> 00:14:04.956
To kill him and saul's son, jonathan became his friend.
00:14:05.023 --> 00:14:09.060
Jonathan became his friend. and when saul's house
00:14:09.127 --> 00:14:10.762
And when saul's house was killed,
00:14:10.828 --> 00:14:11.996
Was killed, the scripture said,
00:14:12.063 --> 00:14:13.264
The scripture said, and david went to the throne
00:14:13.331 --> 00:14:14.866
And david went to the throne in 2 samuel 9:1,
00:14:14.933 --> 00:14:18.136
In 2 samuel 9:1, he said, "is there any left
00:14:18.202 --> 00:14:18.903
He said, "is there any left in the house of saul that
00:14:18.970 --> 00:14:20.672
In the house of saul that i might show kindness to?"
00:14:20.738 --> 00:14:24.409
I might show kindness to?" who was the house of saul?
00:14:24.475 --> 00:14:25.777
Who was the house of saul? the people who had chased him,
00:14:25.843 --> 00:14:28.413
The people who had chased him, and tried to kill him
00:14:28.479 --> 00:14:29.514
And tried to kill him and assassinate him over
00:14:29.580 --> 00:14:30.615
And assassinate him over and over and over.
00:14:30.682 --> 00:14:32.250
And over and over. and he said, "i made jonathan,
00:14:32.317 --> 00:14:34.419
And he said, "i made jonathan, my friend, a promise
00:14:34.485 --> 00:14:36.287
My friend, a promise and i heard he's got
00:14:36.354 --> 00:14:37.588
And i heard he's got a son and he's crippled.
00:14:37.655 --> 00:14:39.857
A son and he's crippled. and i want you to go get him

And i want you to go get him and i want you to bring him

And i want you to bring him to my palace.
00:14:42.860 --> 00:14:43.661
To my palace. he will sit at my table.
00:14:43.728 --> 00:14:45.396
He will sit at my table. and by the way, i want his ranch
00:14:45.463 --> 00:14:47.065
And by the way, i want his ranch and his farm restored.
00:14:47.131 --> 00:14:49.200
And his farm restored. all the land will be given back
00:14:49.267 --> 00:14:51.336

00:14:58.543 --> 00:15:00.311
And make sure the old home place is there for that crippled boy.
00:15:00.378 --> 00:15:02.213
Is there for that crippled boy. if he ever wants to go out,
00:15:02.280 --> 00:15:03.514
If he ever wants to go out, and just somebody
00:15:03.581 --> 00:15:05.116
And just somebody take him around,
00:15:05.183 --> 00:15:06.517
Take him around, but he'll eat at
00:15:06.584 --> 00:15:07.285
But he'll eat at my table every day
00:15:07.352 --> 00:15:09.120

After god's own heart. that's a photograph

That's a photograph of what it looks like.
00:15:15.159 --> 00:15:17.295
Of what it looks like. it's somebody who is blessing
00:15:17.362 --> 00:15:19.630
It's somebody who is blessing a family that tried
00:15:19.697 --> 00:15:20.965
A family that tried to take him out.
00:15:21.032 --> 00:15:24.202
To take him out. this is a big deal.
00:15:24.268 --> 00:15:25.636
This is a big deal. these are the things when
00:15:25.703 --> 00:15:27.238
These are the things when you forgive your father,
00:15:27.305 --> 00:15:28.439
You forgive your father, who wasn't there,
00:15:28.506 --> 00:15:31.075

I can't stand him and all of that,
00:15:34.779 --> 00:15:35.580
And all of that, you don't necessarily
00:15:35.646 --> 00:15:36.547
You don't necessarily have to be around somebody,
00:15:36.614 --> 00:15:40.451
Have to be around somebody, but you do have to forgive them
00:15:40.518 --> 00:15:42.220
But you do have to forgive them truly from your heart.
