  • At it is like that. god says,
  • 00:11:38.445 --> 00:11:39.379

  • 00:11:39.446 --> 00:11:40.614
  • "i sure didn't pick him because he was qualified
  • 00:11:40.680 --> 00:11:42.115

  • I do not have inferiority, but i also am keenly aware
  • 00:11:48.054 --> 00:11:50.123
  • But i also am keenly aware that god could have found many,
  • 00:11:50.190 --> 00:11:51.958
  • That god could have found many, many, many more people
  • 00:11:52.025 --> 00:11:53.326
  • Many, many more people who could be more
  • 00:11:53.393 --> 00:11:54.294
  • Who could be more qualified than i am.
  • 00:11:54.361 --> 00:11:55.629
  • Qualified than i am. but if we will be like that in
  • 00:11:55.695 --> 00:11:57.831
  • But if we will be like that in god's eyes and then he sees you,
  • 00:11:57.898 --> 00:12:00.400
  • God's eyes and then he sees you, the saints of the lord
  • 00:12:00.467 --> 00:12:01.802
  • The saints of the lord as those strong arms.
  • 00:12:01.868 --> 00:12:03.937
  • As those strong arms. but unless we all come
  • 00:12:04.004 --> 00:12:05.539
  • But unless we all come in unity --
  • 00:12:05.605 --> 00:12:06.406
  • In unity -- and only one's got a microphone,
  • 00:12:06.473 --> 00:12:08.141
  • And only one's got a microphone, the megaphone, that's me.
  • 00:12:08.208 --> 00:12:10.076
  • The megaphone, that's me. [laughter]
  • 00:12:10.143 --> 00:12:12.179
  • [laughter] and while i am feeling
  • 00:12:12.245 --> 00:12:14.915
  • And while i am feeling very insufficient,
  • 00:12:14.981 --> 00:12:17.284
  • Very insufficient, even when i walk up
  • 00:12:17.350 --> 00:12:18.351
  • Even when i walk up to this pulpit
  • 00:12:18.418 --> 00:12:19.019
  • To this pulpit this morning,
  • 00:12:19.085 --> 00:12:19.953
  • This morning, you have no idea
  • 00:12:20.020 --> 00:12:21.621
  • You have no idea how it feels.
  • 00:12:21.688 --> 00:12:23.757
  • How it feels. but at the same time,
  • 00:12:23.824 --> 00:12:25.492
  • But at the same time, i do know that god
  • 00:12:25.559 --> 00:12:27.027
  • I do know that god put me in that seat,
  • 00:12:27.093 --> 00:12:28.628
  • Put me in that seat, that god called me to do this,
  • 00:12:28.695 --> 00:12:30.597
  • That god called me to do this, and i'm thankful
  • 00:12:30.664 --> 00:12:31.398
  • And i'm thankful for the crew that he
  • 00:12:31.464 --> 00:12:32.732
  • For the crew that he put me with.
  • 00:12:32.799 --> 00:12:34.034
  • Put me with. and all together we can get
  • 00:12:34.100 --> 00:12:35.902
  • And all together we can get across the finish line
  • 00:12:35.969 --> 00:12:37.838
  • Across the finish line and win the race.
  • 00:12:37.904 --> 00:12:39.105
  • And win the race. come on, somebody.
  • 00:12:39.172 --> 00:12:40.073
  • Come on, somebody. [applause]
  • 00:12:40.140 --> 00:12:46.680
  • [applause] he barks orders,
  • 00:12:46.746 --> 00:12:48.014
  • He barks orders, "pick it up.
  • 00:12:48.081 --> 00:12:48.882
  • "pick it up. faster, faster, faster.'
  • 00:12:48.949 --> 00:12:51.051
  • Faster, faster, faster.' and then sometimes he says,
  • 00:12:51.117 --> 00:12:51.885
  • And then sometimes he says, "slow down,
  • 00:12:51.952 --> 00:12:52.652
  • "slow down, relax, calm down."
  • 00:12:52.719 --> 00:12:59.326
  • Relax, calm down." when you understand that
  • 00:12:59.392 --> 00:13:03.730
  • When you understand that and you link
  • 00:13:03.797 --> 00:13:04.731
  • And you link up to a crew.
  • 00:13:04.798 --> 00:13:06.766
  • Up to a crew. who's your crew?
  • 00:13:06.833 --> 00:13:08.201
  • Who's your crew? some of you are trying to
  • 00:13:08.268 --> 00:13:08.935
  • Some of you are trying to do it on your own.
  • 00:13:09.002 --> 00:13:09.936
  • Do it on your own. you say,
  • 00:13:10.003 --> 00:13:10.437
  • You say, "well, me and jesus have
  • 00:13:10.503 --> 00:13:11.171
  • "well, me and jesus have got our own thing going.
  • 00:13:11.238 --> 00:13:12.572
  • Got our own thing going. and you and jesus --
  • 00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:15.775
  • And you and jesus -- jesus is calling you.
  • 00:13:15.842 --> 00:13:16.910
  • Jesus is calling you. he said, "i'll build my church."
  • 00:13:16.977 --> 00:13:20.046
  • He said, "i'll build my church." and jesus is calling you
  • 00:13:20.113 --> 00:13:21.381
  • And jesus is calling you to find your crew.
  • 00:13:21.448 --> 00:13:25.518
  • To find your crew. it touches me when
  • 00:13:25.585 --> 00:13:26.720
  • It touches me when people come to this altar
  • 00:13:26.786 --> 00:13:28.154
  • People come to this altar and get born again,
  • 00:13:28.221 --> 00:13:29.222
  • And get born again, and then a year later,
  • 00:13:29.289 --> 00:13:30.156
  • And then a year later, i see them serving
  • 00:13:30.223 --> 00:13:31.858
  • I see them serving in a ministry.
  • 00:13:31.925 --> 00:13:33.860
  • In a ministry. it's powerful.
  • 00:13:33.927 --> 00:13:34.961
  • It's powerful. it's powerful what god can do
  • 00:13:35.028 --> 00:13:37.063
  • It's powerful what god can do when we understand it.
  • 00:13:37.130 --> 00:13:38.832
  • When we understand it. it's not me, it's us together.
  • 00:13:38.899 --> 00:13:41.601
  • It's not me, it's us together. it's me with you.
  • 00:13:41.668 --> 00:13:42.769
  • It's me with you. a carefully balanced blend.
  • 00:13:42.836 --> 00:13:46.139
  • A carefully balanced blend. each must be prepared
  • 00:13:46.206 --> 00:13:47.507
  • Each must be prepared to compromise.
  • 00:13:47.574 --> 00:13:50.477
  • To compromise. what a message for marriages
  • 00:13:50.543 --> 00:13:53.813
  • What a message for marriages that the guy with
  • 00:13:53.880 --> 00:13:54.948
  • That the guy with the powerful arms,
  • 00:13:55.015 --> 00:13:56.149
  • The powerful arms, sometimes the coach will call
  • 00:13:56.216 --> 00:13:58.485
  • Sometimes the coach will call out a command and he'll say,
  • 00:13:58.551 --> 00:13:59.886
  • Out a command and he'll say, "lighten up a little bit."
  • 00:13:59.953 --> 00:14:00.921
  • "lighten up a little bit." and the guy with the powerful
  • 00:14:00.987 --> 00:14:01.755
  • And the guy with the powerful arms has to lighten up.
  • 00:14:01.821 --> 00:14:03.189
  • Arms has to lighten up. and -- because those paddles
  • 00:14:03.256 --> 00:14:05.892
  • And -- because those paddles have gotta hit at
  • 00:14:05.959 --> 00:14:06.793
  • Have gotta hit at the exact same time.
  • 00:14:06.860 --> 00:14:07.961
  • The exact same time. and maybe somebody --
  • 00:14:08.028 --> 00:14:09.162
  • And maybe somebody -- because what they're
  • 00:14:09.229 --> 00:14:09.963
  • Because what they're trying to get to is
  • 00:14:10.030 --> 00:14:11.064
  • Trying to get to is something called the swing.
  • 00:14:11.131 --> 00:14:13.800
  • Something called the swing. usually a professional team
  • 00:14:13.867 --> 00:14:16.069
  • Usually a professional team can get up to 40 to 45 strokes
  • 00:14:16.136 --> 00:14:20.473
  • Can get up to 40 to 45 strokes in one minute.
  • 00:14:20.540 --> 00:14:21.908
  • In one minute. it's pretty powerful.
  • 00:14:21.975 --> 00:14:23.243
  • It's pretty powerful. that is --
  • 00:14:23.310 --> 00:14:24.177
  • That is -- and they're doing it
  • 00:14:24.244 --> 00:14:24.978
  • And they're doing it synchronized together.
  • 00:14:25.045 --> 00:14:27.247
  • Synchronized together. but there's something
  • 00:14:27.314 --> 00:14:28.248
  • But there's something called swing.
  • 00:14:28.315 --> 00:14:31.584
  • Called swing. and when the group gets
  • 00:14:31.651 --> 00:14:33.853
  • And when the group gets in absolute unity,
  • 00:14:33.920 --> 00:14:37.791
  • In absolute unity, when their timing
  • 00:14:37.857 --> 00:14:38.858
  • When their timing is just perfect,
  • 00:14:38.925 --> 00:14:41.928
  • Is just perfect, when everybody's depending
  • 00:14:41.995 --> 00:14:43.763
  • When everybody's depending on everybody,
  • 00:14:43.830 --> 00:14:45.098
  • On everybody, and they're not doing
  • 00:14:45.165 --> 00:14:45.999
  • And they're not doing their own thing
  • 00:14:46.066 --> 00:14:47.133
  • Their own thing and they're not going along
  • 00:14:47.200 --> 00:14:48.835
  • And they're not going along and doing what's
  • 00:14:48.902 --> 00:14:49.869
  • And doing what's right in their eyes,
  • 00:14:49.936 --> 00:14:51.204
  • Right in their eyes, and, "i don't care
  • 00:14:51.271 --> 00:14:51.871
  • And, "i don't care what anybody else thinks."
  • 00:14:51.938 --> 00:14:52.672
  • What anybody else thinks." but when they are
  • 00:14:52.739 --> 00:14:53.840
  • But when they are a beautiful unit,
  • 00:14:53.907 --> 00:14:55.375
  • A beautiful unit, a beautiful crew,
  • 00:14:55.442 --> 00:14:56.443
  • A beautiful crew, they then enter into what
  • 00:14:56.509 --> 00:14:58.144
  • They then enter into what they described --
  • 00:14:58.211 --> 00:14:59.612
  • They described -- they called it poetry.
  • 00:14:59.679 --> 00:15:01.715
  • They called it poetry. it's almost like the ship
  • 00:15:01.781 --> 00:15:03.350
  • It's almost like the ship begins to lift
  • 00:15:03.416 --> 00:15:04.451
  • Begins to lift out of the water,
  • 00:15:04.517 --> 00:15:05.852
  • Out of the water, and they call it swing,
  • 00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:07.654
  • And they call it swing, and it literally begins
  • 00:15:07.721 --> 00:15:09.022
  • And it literally begins to glide so fast
  • 00:15:09.089 --> 00:15:11.558
  • To glide so fast that even though the front
  • 00:15:11.624 --> 00:15:13.326
  • That even though the front running team may be
  • 00:15:13.393 --> 00:15:14.527
  • Running team may be going 40, 44, sweating,
  • 00:15:14.594 --> 00:15:17.564
  • Going 40, 44, sweating, toiling, oh oh so much,
  • 00:15:17.630 --> 00:15:19.566
  • Toiling, oh oh so much, so much, that when you hit
  • 00:15:19.632 --> 00:15:22.869
  • So much, that when you hit this thing called swing
  • 00:15:22.936 --> 00:15:24.371
  • This thing called swing in a boat --
  • 00:15:24.437 --> 00:15:25.071
  • In a boat -- in a rowboat,
  • 00:15:25.138 --> 00:15:27.440
  • In a rowboat, you can --
  • 00:15:27.507 --> 00:15:28.074
  • You can -- sometimes you won't find it
  • 00:15:28.141 --> 00:15:29.409
  • Sometimes you won't find it at 44 or 40,
  • 00:15:29.476 --> 00:15:31.277
  • At 44 or 40, you can hit it at 32 or 33.
  • 00:15:31.344 --> 00:15:34.381
  • You can hit it at 32 or 33. but because everybody's
  • 00:15:34.447 --> 00:15:36.249
  • But because everybody's in unity now,
  • 00:15:36.316 --> 00:15:37.117
  • In unity now, they're all doing
  • 00:15:37.183 --> 00:15:37.917
  • They're all doing their thing over there
  • 00:15:37.984 --> 00:15:38.818
  • Their thing over there and they're just going --
  • 00:15:38.885 --> 00:15:39.719
  • And they're just going -- but this group
  • 00:15:39.786 --> 00:15:41.087
  • But this group hits unity.
  • 00:15:41.154 --> 00:15:43.690
  • Hits unity. and boom,
  • 00:15:43.757 --> 00:15:44.691
  • And boom, something happens.
  • 00:15:44.758 --> 00:15:45.592
  • Something happens. and they're --
  • 00:15:45.658 --> 00:15:46.292
  • And they're -- they look like they're
  • 00:15:46.359 --> 00:15:47.027
  • They look like they're just kind of relaxing,
  • 00:15:47.093 --> 00:15:48.661
  • Just kind of relaxing, but they're in unity,
  • 00:15:48.728 --> 00:15:49.863
  • But they're in unity, and there they go.
  • 00:15:49.929 --> 00:15:50.797
  • And there they go. they said they
  • 00:15:50.864 --> 00:15:51.464
  • They said they will soar past.
  • 00:15:51.531 --> 00:15:54.000
  • Will soar past. that's how they win
  • 00:15:54.067 --> 00:15:55.168
  • That's how they win if they can hit swing.
  • 00:15:55.235 --> 00:15:58.304
  • If they can hit swing. and i couldn't help
  • 00:15:58.371 --> 00:15:58.905
  • And i couldn't help but think about how that,
  • 00:15:58.972 --> 00:16:02.342
  • But think about how that, you know,
  • 00:16:02.409 --> 00:16:02.776
  • You know, it's not just about you,
  • 00:16:02.842 --> 00:16:04.711
  • It's not just about you, but it's when you begin
  • 00:16:04.778 --> 00:16:05.945
  • But it's when you begin to have that unity spirit
  • 00:16:06.012 --> 00:16:08.415
  • To have that unity spirit that hits a place,
  • 00:16:08.481 --> 00:16:10.550
  • That hits a place, rowing not at
  • 00:16:10.617 --> 00:16:11.151
  • Rowing not at your own pace,
  • 00:16:11.217 --> 00:16:14.020
  • Your own pace, but -- the church
  • 00:16:14.087 --> 00:16:14.888
  • But -- the church has a destination.
  • 00:16:14.954 --> 00:16:16.189
  • Has a destination. and it's not just about you
  • 00:16:16.256 --> 00:16:17.457
  • And it's not just about you getting across the finish line.
  • 00:16:17.524 --> 00:16:20.326
  • Getting across the finish line. and it's not just
  • 00:16:20.393 --> 00:16:20.860
  • And it's not just about my family,
  • 00:16:20.927 --> 00:16:22.028
  • About my family, but it's about your family.
  • 00:16:22.095 --> 00:16:23.797
  • But it's about your family. and it's not just about
  • 00:16:23.863 --> 00:16:24.831
  • And it's not just about my trials,
  • 00:16:24.898 --> 00:16:26.199
  • My trials, but it's about your trials.
  • 00:16:26.266 --> 00:16:27.567
  • But it's about your trials. and i gotta encourage you.
  • 00:16:27.634 --> 00:16:28.935
  • And i gotta encourage you. and it's not just about
  • 00:16:29.002 --> 00:16:29.569
  • And it's not just about me being encouraged,
  • 00:16:29.636 --> 00:16:31.037
  • Me being encouraged, but i have a responsibility,
  • 00:16:31.104 --> 00:16:32.739
  • But i have a responsibility, that we are a crew,
  • 00:16:32.806 --> 00:16:33.907
  • That we are a crew, that we're a team,
  • 00:16:33.973 --> 00:16:34.641
  • That we're a team, that when i'm weak,
  • 00:16:34.707 --> 00:16:35.742
  • That when i'm weak, you help my weakness,
  • 00:16:35.809 --> 00:16:37.210
  • You help my weakness, and when i'm strong,
  • 00:16:37.277 --> 00:16:38.378
  • And when i'm strong, then i can help yours.
  • 00:16:38.445 --> 00:16:40.346
  • Then i can help yours. but we begin
  • 00:16:40.413 --> 00:16:41.848
  • But we begin to function that way.
  • 00:16:41.915 --> 00:16:43.083
  • To function that way. in other words,
  • 00:16:43.149 --> 00:16:43.783
  • In other words, you gotta care
  • 00:16:43.850 --> 00:16:44.517
  • You gotta care about your crew.
  • 00:16:44.584 --> 00:16:46.586
  • About your crew. you gotta love your crew.
  • 00:16:46.653 --> 00:16:48.054
  • You gotta love your crew. it's not just,
  • 00:16:48.121 --> 00:16:48.455
  • It's not just, i want to get my
  • 00:16:48.521 --> 00:16:49.155
  • I want to get my family to heaven,
  • 00:16:49.222 --> 00:16:50.423
