  • Is not faith, it's fairy tale.
  • 00:01:40.797 --> 00:01:44.434
  • It's fairy tale. if i say my steps are ordered
  • 00:01:44.501 --> 00:01:47.237
  • If i say my steps are ordered by the lord as a way of excusing
  • 00:01:47.303 --> 00:01:50.140
  • By the lord as a way of excusing my decisions.
  • 00:01:50.206 --> 00:01:52.809
  • My decisions. i have misunderstood
  • 00:01:52.876 --> 00:01:54.344
  • I have misunderstood the implication of psalm 37:23.
  • 00:01:54.410 --> 00:01:58.348
  • The implication of psalm 37:23. i wonder how much differently
  • 00:01:58.414 --> 00:02:00.416
  • I wonder how much differently we would respond to psalm 37:23
  • 00:02:00.483 --> 00:02:03.686
  • We would respond to psalm 37:23 if we considered
  • 00:02:03.753 --> 00:02:04.687
  • If we considered the word ordered.
  • 00:02:04.754 --> 00:02:08.291
  • The word ordered. because when god went to,
  • 00:02:08.358 --> 00:02:09.225
  • Because when god went to, david went to god, david didn't
  • 00:02:09.292 --> 00:02:11.528
  • David went to god, david didn't give god his opinion.
  • 00:02:11.594 --> 00:02:13.930
  • Give god his opinion. he asked god for his next order.
  • 00:02:13.997 --> 00:02:17.901
  • He asked god for his next order. now when you live like that,
  • 00:02:17.967 --> 00:02:20.303
  • Now when you live like that, you can have complete and total
  • 00:02:20.370 --> 00:02:22.305
  • You can have complete and total confidence in every move you
  • 00:02:22.372 --> 00:02:24.274
  • Confidence in every move you make, every breath you take.
  • 00:02:24.340 --> 00:02:30.446
  • Make, every breath you take. and whether you're moving away
  • 00:02:30.513 --> 00:02:31.481
  • And whether you're moving away from your goal or toward
  • 00:02:31.548 --> 00:02:32.815
  • From your goal or toward your goal, you can know
  • 00:02:32.882 --> 00:02:33.950
  • Your goal, you can know i'm in submission,
  • 00:02:34.017 --> 00:02:35.118
  • I'm in submission, so i'm at peace.
  • 00:02:35.185 --> 00:02:38.588
  • So i'm at peace. submission brings peace.
  • 00:02:38.655 --> 00:02:41.658
  • Submission brings peace. when you try to get the strategy
  • 00:02:41.724 --> 00:02:43.826
  • When you try to get the strategy before submission,
  • 00:02:43.893 --> 00:02:46.296
  • Before submission, you're out of order.
  • 00:02:46.362 --> 00:02:48.331
  • You're out of order. and it doesn't work.
  • 00:02:48.398 --> 00:02:51.267
  • And it doesn't work. when you say god orders
  • 00:02:51.334 --> 00:02:52.502
  • When you say god orders your steps, understand
  • 00:02:52.569 --> 00:02:53.803
  • Your steps, understand what you're saying is not
  • 00:02:53.870 --> 00:02:55.838
  • What you're saying is not that god will take the step
  • 00:02:55.905 --> 00:02:56.873
  • That god will take the step for you, it's that he will tell
  • 00:02:56.940 --> 00:02:59.175
  • For you, it's that he will tell you which one to take.
  • 00:02:59.242 --> 00:03:03.046
  • You which one to take. so when i asked god to heal
  • 00:03:03.112 --> 00:03:04.881
  • So when i asked god to heal my relationship with my dad,
  • 00:03:04.948 --> 00:03:06.516
  • My relationship with my dad, god did not do it until
  • 00:03:06.583 --> 00:03:09.886
  • I submitted to the way that he
  • 00:03:09.986 --> 00:03:14.657
  • Wanted me to do it,
  • 00:03:14.724 --> 00:03:16.693
  • Which was to humble myself
  • 00:03:16.759 --> 00:03:19.128
  • And go into my dad, and instead
  • 00:03:19.195 --> 00:03:21.664
  • Of proving how right i was
  • 00:03:21.731 --> 00:03:23.466
  • And how wrong he was,
  • 00:03:23.533 --> 00:03:25.501
  • To find a point of connection.
  • 00:03:25.568 --> 00:03:27.303
  • But that required submission.
  • 00:03:27.403 --> 00:03:31.541
  • But that required submission. and when i submitted myself
  • 00:03:31.608 --> 00:03:33.843
  • And when i submitted myself to god's way,
  • 00:03:33.910 --> 00:03:35.745
  • To god's way, i experienced god's will.
  • 00:03:35.812 --> 00:03:40.850
  • I experienced god's will. a lot of the things that are not
  • 00:03:40.917 --> 00:03:42.085
  • A lot of the things that are not working in my life
  • 00:03:42.151 --> 00:03:43.419
  • Working in my life are because i'm out of order.
  • 00:03:43.486 --> 00:03:47.156
  • Are because i'm out of order. sometimes when your finances
  • 00:03:47.223 --> 00:03:48.858
  • Sometimes when your finances are out of order,
  • 00:03:48.925 --> 00:03:50.059
  • Are out of order, you have the money you need.
  • 00:03:50.126 --> 00:03:52.495
  • You have the money you need. it's just not in order.
  • 00:03:52.562 --> 00:03:57.867
  • It's just not in order. i think i've preached
  • 00:03:57.934 --> 00:03:58.601
  • I think i've preached us into a funeral.
  • 00:03:58.668 --> 00:04:02.672
  • Us into a funeral. it's because god is really
  • 00:04:02.739 --> 00:04:05.041
  • It's because god is really not first in your priorities.
  • 00:04:05.108 --> 00:04:08.311
  • Not first in your priorities. i can tell by your ledger.
  • 00:04:08.378 --> 00:04:11.080
  • I can tell by your ledger. i can tell because everybody
  • 00:04:11.147 --> 00:04:12.915
  • I can tell because everybody else gets your first
  • 00:04:12.982 --> 00:04:15.818
  • Else gets your first and god gets what's left.
  • 00:04:15.885 --> 00:04:18.521
  • And god gets what's left. when you give god your best,
  • 00:04:18.588 --> 00:04:21.190
  • When you give god your best, he blesses what's left.
  • 00:04:21.257 --> 00:04:23.359
  • He blesses what's left. when you give god what's
  • 00:04:23.426 --> 00:04:24.627
  • When you give god what's left, how can you believe
  • 00:04:24.694 --> 00:04:26.562
  • Left, how can you believe him for his best?
  • 00:04:26.629 --> 00:04:29.165
  • Him for his best? you're out of order.
  • 00:04:29.232 --> 00:04:33.236
  • You're out of order. the three times that me
  • 00:04:33.303 --> 00:04:34.537
  • The three times that me and holly have fought in 15
  • 00:04:34.604 --> 00:04:35.905
  • And holly have fought in 15 years of marriage,
  • 00:04:35.972 --> 00:04:39.509
  • Years of marriage, i might be understating,
  • 00:04:39.575 --> 00:04:41.778
  • I might be understating, but when we fight,
  • 00:04:41.844 --> 00:04:43.146
  • But when we fight, it's not because we don't
  • 00:04:43.212 --> 00:04:44.414
  • It's not because we don't have a blessed marriage.
  • 00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:46.616
  • Have a blessed marriage. it's because something
  • 00:04:46.683 --> 00:04:47.850
  • It's because something is out of order.
  • 00:04:47.917 --> 00:04:51.187
  • Is out of order. something is out of order.
  • 00:04:51.254 --> 00:04:52.855
  • Something is out of order. there's a step i'm skipping.
  • 00:04:52.922 --> 00:04:54.524
  • There's a step i'm skipping. see, when i talk to my wife
  • 00:04:54.590 --> 00:04:55.658
  • See, when i talk to my wife and i need to work something
  • 00:04:55.725 --> 00:04:56.559
  • And i need to work something out, the thing i got to do
  • 00:04:56.626 --> 00:04:58.361
  • Out, the thing i got to do before i can explain myself
  • 00:04:58.428 --> 00:05:01.030
  • Before i can explain myself is to empathize,
  • 00:05:01.097 --> 00:05:02.765
  • Is to empathize, which does not come naturally
  • 00:05:02.832 --> 00:05:04.133
  • Which does not come naturally to me, to listen to your wrong
  • 00:05:04.200 --> 00:05:06.869
  • To me, to listen to your wrong point of view before i give you
  • 00:05:06.936 --> 00:05:08.504
  • Point of view before i give you the correct one.
  • 00:05:08.571 --> 00:05:11.341
  • The correct one. but sometimes, there's something
  • 00:05:11.407 --> 00:05:12.442
  • But sometimes, there's something i need to learn about
  • 00:05:12.508 --> 00:05:13.776
  • I need to learn about how you see it,
  • 00:05:13.843 --> 00:05:15.778
  • How you see it, so i can come over
  • 00:05:15.845 --> 00:05:16.713
  • So i can come over onto your side.
  • 00:05:16.779 --> 00:05:18.581
  • Onto your side. that's why we have so much
  • 00:05:18.648 --> 00:05:20.316
  • That's why we have so much racial and religious tension
  • 00:05:20.383 --> 00:05:22.552
  • Racial and religious tension in our nation,
  • 00:05:22.618 --> 00:05:23.820
  • In our nation, we're out of order.
  • 00:05:23.886 --> 00:05:26.022
  • We're out of order. we're out of order.
  • 00:05:26.089 --> 00:05:28.424
  • We're out of order. before we even listen to one
  • 00:05:28.491 --> 00:05:29.926
  • Before we even listen to one another, we're given a lesson
  • 00:05:29.992 --> 00:05:31.828
  • Another, we're given a lesson to the other, but you can't
  • 00:05:31.894 --> 00:05:33.162
  • To the other, but you can't give the lesson until you're
  • 00:05:33.229 --> 00:05:34.731
  • Give the lesson until you're willing to listen.
  • 00:05:34.797 --> 00:05:40.603
  • Willing to listen. so we're out of order.
  • 00:05:40.670 --> 00:05:44.307
  • So we're out of order. and now, we're frustrated
  • 00:05:44.374 --> 00:05:46.209
  • And now, we're frustrated because it's not working,
  • 00:05:46.275 --> 00:05:47.377
  • Because it's not working, and we don't know what to do.
  • 00:05:47.443 --> 00:05:49.779
  • And we don't know what to do. but david's life is a life
  • 00:05:49.846 --> 00:05:52.181
  • But david's life is a life is interesting how he was
  • 00:05:52.248 --> 00:05:54.150
  • Is interesting how he was in order,
  • 00:05:54.217 --> 00:05:54.951
  • In order, how everything had a flow to it.
  • 00:05:55.017 --> 00:05:58.354
  • How everything had a flow to it. the oil flows when
  • 00:05:58.421 --> 00:05:59.989
  • The oil flows when you're in order.
  • 00:06:00.056 --> 00:06:02.325
  • You're in order. the bible says he inquired
  • 00:06:02.392 --> 00:06:03.593
  • The bible says he inquired of the lord, "shall i go up
  • 00:06:03.659 --> 00:06:05.027
  • Of the lord, "shall i go up to one of the cities of judah?"
  • 00:06:05.094 --> 00:06:06.929
  • To one of the cities of judah?" which was not, by the way,
  • 00:06:06.996 --> 00:06:08.631
  • Which was not, by the way, the ultimate capital.
  • 00:06:08.698 --> 00:06:09.699
  • The ultimate capital. because everything god does,
  • 00:06:09.766 --> 00:06:10.967
  • Because everything god does, he does in steps and stages.
  • 00:06:11.033 --> 00:06:14.704
  • He does in steps and stages. it would be seven and a half
  • 00:06:14.771 --> 00:06:16.139
  • It would be seven and a half more years before david would
  • 00:06:16.205 --> 00:06:18.441
  • More years before david would come into the fullness
  • 00:06:18.508 --> 00:06:19.442
  • Come into the fullness of his calling.
  • 00:06:19.509 --> 00:06:21.144
  • Of his calling. but all you need for now
  • 00:06:21.210 --> 00:06:22.078
  • But all you need for now is the next step.
  • 00:06:22.145 --> 00:06:25.381
  • Is the next step. david had been making moves,
  • 00:06:25.448 --> 00:06:26.816
  • David had been making moves, see, he had been working toward
  • 00:06:26.883 --> 00:06:30.686
  • See, he had been working toward this moment where he
  • 00:06:30.753 --> 00:06:31.888
  • This moment where he would go to judah.
  • 00:06:31.954 --> 00:06:32.922
  • Would go to judah. and he had sent the men
  • 00:06:32.989 --> 00:06:33.856
  • And he had sent the men of judah gifts.
  • 00:06:33.923 --> 00:06:34.891
  • Of judah gifts. and he was set up now.
  • 00:06:34.957 --> 00:06:36.092
  • And he was set up now. and he asked god,
  • 00:06:36.159 --> 00:06:37.293
  • And he asked god, "is now the time,
  • 00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:38.428
  • "is now the time, because i don't want to move
  • 00:06:38.494 --> 00:06:39.529
  • Because i don't want to move till you want me to move?"
  • 00:06:39.595 --> 00:06:42.698
  • Till you want me to move?" and in one sentence, god taught
  • 00:06:42.765 --> 00:06:45.535
  • Him his next move,
  • 00:06:45.635 --> 00:06:48.938
  • Him his next move, because for 15 years,
  • 00:06:49.005 --> 00:06:51.307
  • Because for 15 years, god had taught him to submit.
  • 00:06:51.374 --> 00:06:57.647
  • God had taught him to submit. if you can receive this message
  • 00:06:57.713 --> 00:06:59.282
  • If you can receive this message today, and submit your desires,
  • 00:06:59.348 --> 00:07:02.919
  • God will tell you
  • 00:07:03.019 --> 00:07:04.821
  • God will tell you what to do when you delight
  • 00:07:04.887 --> 00:07:07.490
  • What to do when you delight yourself in his way.
  • 00:07:07.557 --> 00:07:09.325
  • Yourself in his way. that's what psalm 37 says.
  • 00:07:09.392 --> 00:07:11.928
  • That's what psalm 37 says. that he delighted in his way.
  • 00:07:11.994 --> 00:07:15.331
  • That he delighted in his way. i thought that meant,
  • 00:07:15.398 --> 00:07:16.299
  • I thought that meant, i'm so stupid, i thought
  • 00:07:16.365 --> 00:07:17.200
  • I'm so stupid, i thought that meant for the longest time,
  • 00:07:17.266 --> 00:07:18.468
  • That meant for the longest time, i don't know why i can't get
  • 00:07:18.534 --> 00:07:19.469
  • I don't know why i can't get this stuff the first time,
  • 00:07:19.535 --> 00:07:20.837
  • This stuff the first time, i thought that meant god
  • 00:07:20.903 --> 00:07:21.938
  • I thought that meant god delights in his way.
  • 00:07:22.004 --> 00:07:23.206
  • Delights in his way. the steps of a good man are
  • 00:07:23.272 --> 00:07:24.240
  • The steps of a good man are ordered by the lord,
  • 00:07:24.307 --> 00:07:25.174
  • Ordered by the lord, put it up there.
  • 00:07:25.241 --> 00:07:25.842
  • Put it up there. "the steps of a good man are
  • 00:07:25.908 --> 00:07:26.809
  • "the steps of a good man are ordered by the lord
  • 00:07:26.876 --> 00:07:28.044
  • Ordered by the lord and he delighteth in his way."
  • 00:07:28.110 --> 00:07:30.012
  • And he delighteth in his way." i thought that meant that if
  • 00:07:30.079 --> 00:07:31.047
  • I thought that meant that if i'm a good man and my steps
  • 00:07:31.113 --> 00:07:32.582
  • I'm a good man and my steps are ordered,
  • 00:07:32.648 --> 00:07:33.449
  • Are ordered, god will delight in them.
  • 00:07:33.516 --> 00:07:34.383
  • God will delight in them. well of course god delights
  • 00:07:34.450 --> 00:07:35.418
  • Well of course god delights in the way that he orders.
  • 00:07:35.485 --> 00:07:37.620
  • In the way that he orders. that doesn't make any sense.
  • 00:07:37.687 --> 00:07:40.356
  • That doesn't make any sense. it means that when i delight
  • 00:07:40.423 --> 00:07:43.259
  • It means that when i delight in his way.
  • 00:07:43.326 --> 00:07:45.928
  • In his way. see, he delighteth in his way.
  • 00:07:45.995 --> 00:07:49.699
  • See, he delighteth in his way. who is he?
  • 00:07:49.765 --> 00:07:50.967
  • Who is he? the man whose steps are ordered.
  • 00:07:51.033 --> 00:07:54.971
  • The man whose steps are ordered. when i delight in god's way,
  • 00:07:55.037 --> 00:07:58.307
  • When i delight in god's way, i will be in god's will.
  • 00:07:58.374 --> 00:08:01.511
  • I will be in god's will. and my steps will be ordered,
  • 00:08:01.577 --> 00:08:05.648
  • And my steps will be ordered, and i can stay on this step
  • 00:08:05.715 --> 00:08:08.050
  • And i can stay on this step as long as i need to stay
  • 00:08:08.117 --> 00:08:09.385
  • As long as i need to stay on this step, and i can stay
  • 00:08:09.452 --> 00:08:11.721
  • On this step, and i can stay in this season as long as
  • 00:08:11.787 --> 00:08:13.656
  • In this season as long as i need to be in this season.
  • 00:08:13.723 --> 00:08:15.725
  • I need to be in this season. because god, i don't want
  • 00:08:15.791 --> 00:08:17.326
  • Because god, i don't want to go into any greater
  • 00:08:17.393 --> 00:08:19.028
  • To go into any greater responsibility or influence
  • 00:08:19.095 --> 00:08:21.330
  • Responsibility or influence until you say i'm ready.
  • 00:08:21.397 --> 00:08:23.733
  • Until you say i'm ready. i don't want to come out
  • 00:08:23.799 --> 00:08:24.901
  • I don't want to come out of this oven till i'm ready.
  • 00:08:24.967 --> 00:08:26.702
  • Of this oven till i'm ready. i don't want to enter
  • 00:08:26.769 --> 00:08:27.637
  • I don't want to enter into the promotion
  • 00:08:27.703 --> 00:08:29.038
  • Into the promotion until i'm ready.
  • 00:08:29.105 --> 00:08:31.007
  • Until i'm ready. and when you say step, i step.
  • 00:08:31.073 --> 00:08:33.776
  • And when you say step, i step. and my steps are ordered.
  • 00:08:33.843 --> 00:08:37.680
  • And my steps are ordered. it's a statement of submission.
  • 00:08:37.747 --> 00:08:40.783
  • It's a statement of submission. but it's also a statement
  • 00:08:40.850 --> 00:08:42.718
  • But it's also a statement of sequence.
  • 00:08:42.785 --> 00:08:44.754
  • Of sequence. right?
  • 00:08:44.820 --> 00:08:46.188
  • Right? because when you get her number,
  • 00:08:46.255 --> 00:08:49.325
  • Not only do you need the right
  • 00:08:49.425 --> 00:08:50.626
  • Digits, they need to be
  • 00:08:50.693 --> 00:08:53.496
  • In the right order.
  • 00:08:53.563 --> 00:08:56.165
  • Because if she gives you
  • 00:08:56.232 --> 00:08:57.266
  • The right digits in the wrong
  • 00:08:57.333 --> 00:08:59.368
  • Order, you'll be calling
  • 00:08:59.468 --> 00:09:01.671
  • Order, you'll be calling the wrong girl,
  • 00:09:01.737 --> 00:09:03.272
  • The wrong girl, sounding like a stalker.
  • 00:09:03.339 --> 00:09:05.074
  • Sounding like a stalker. "hey remember i met you
  • 00:09:05.141 --> 00:09:05.942
  • "hey remember i met you thursday night?"
  • 00:09:06.008 --> 00:09:06.776
  • Thursday night?" and she's going to hang up
  • 00:09:06.842 --> 00:09:07.510
  • And she's going to hang up on you.
  • 00:09:07.577 --> 00:09:08.945
  • On you. because it has to be in order.
  • 00:09:09.011 --> 00:09:14.150
  • Because it has to be in order. david couldn't be a king until
  • 00:09:14.216 --> 00:09:15.651
  • David couldn't be a king until he learned to be a shepherd,
  • 00:09:15.718 --> 00:09:17.019
  • He learned to be a shepherd, because there was something
  • 00:09:17.086 --> 00:09:18.821
  • Because there was something that he needed to get
  • 00:09:18.888 --> 00:09:20.423
  • That he needed to get at the bottom that would enable
  • 00:09:20.489 --> 00:09:22.925
  • At the bottom that would enable him to be who he needed to be
  • 00:09:22.992 --> 00:09:26.062
  • Him to be who he needed to be at the top.
  • 00:09:26.128 --> 00:09:28.297
  • At the top. somebody shout my steps
  • 00:09:28.364 --> 00:09:29.599
  • Somebody shout my steps are ordered.
  • 00:09:29.665 --> 00:09:32.401
  • Are ordered. that means god not only
  • 00:09:32.468 --> 00:09:33.636
  • That means god not only knows where, but he knows what,
  • 00:09:33.703 --> 00:09:35.538
  • Knows where, but he knows what, and he knows when.
  • 00:09:35.605 --> 00:09:37.740
  • And he knows when. now i can trust him.
  • 00:09:37.807 --> 00:09:40.309
  • Now i can trust him. because i'll have it when
  • 00:09:40.376 --> 00:09:41.043
  • Because i'll have it when i need it.
  • 00:09:41.110 --> 00:09:43.079
  • I need it. i'll have it when i need it.
  • 00:09:43.145 --> 00:09:45.348
  • I'll have it when i need it. i was thinking about something
  • 00:09:45.414 --> 00:09:46.148
  • I was thinking about something the other day how if i had known
  • 00:09:46.215 --> 00:09:47.783
  • The other day how if i had known this 15 years ago,
  • 00:09:47.850 --> 00:09:50.686
  • This 15 years ago, how good it would have been.
  • 00:09:50.753 --> 00:09:52.488
  • How good it would have been. and i felt that voice in me.
  • 00:09:52.555 --> 00:09:53.623
  • And i felt that voice in me. it wasn't out loud like david,
  • 00:09:53.689 --> 00:09:54.824
  • It wasn't out loud like david, where god just speaks to you
  • 00:09:54.890 --> 00:09:55.958
  • Where god just speaks to you in complete sentences.
  • 00:09:56.025 --> 00:09:57.660
  • In complete sentences. it was an impression that god
  • 00:09:57.727 --> 00:09:58.728
  • It was an impression that god said, "you wouldn't have known
  • 00:09:58.794 --> 00:09:59.762
  • What to do with it 15 years ago.
  • 00:09:59.862 --> 00:10:03.366
  • What to do with it 15 years ago. it took 15 years of your
  • 00:10:03.432 --> 00:10:04.500
  • It took 15 years of your foolishness to even respect
  • 00:10:04.567 --> 00:10:07.036
  • Foolishness to even respect what i wanted to show you."
  • 00:10:07.103 --> 00:10:09.572
  • What i wanted to show you." see this is what i mean when
  • 00:10:09.639 --> 00:10:10.506
  • See this is what i mean when i say my steps are ordered.
  • 00:10:10.573 --> 00:10:12.008
  • I say my steps are ordered. i mean that not only
  • 00:10:12.074 --> 00:10:14.443
  • Are the ones, the steps,
  • 00:10:14.543 --> 00:10:16.045
  • Are the ones, the steps, the steps that feel like
  • 00:10:16.112 --> 00:10:17.780
  • The steps that feel like this ordered.
  • 00:10:17.847 --> 00:10:20.950
  • This ordered. but so are these.
  • 00:10:21.017 --> 00:10:25.354
  • But so are these. and you can't have one
  • 00:10:25.421 --> 00:10:28.391
  • And you can't have one without the other.
  • 00:10:28.457 --> 00:10:30.526
  • Without the other. to say my steps are ordered
  • 00:10:30.593 --> 00:10:32.428
  • To say my steps are ordered means that not only does
  • 00:10:32.495 --> 00:10:34.697
  • Means that not only does promotion not come from the east
  • 00:10:34.764 --> 00:10:36.832
  • Promotion not come from the east or the west, but it comes
  • 00:10:36.899 --> 00:10:38.601
  • Or the west, but it comes from the lord,
  • 00:10:38.668 --> 00:10:40.269
  • From the lord, but sometimes the pain comes
  • 00:10:40.336 --> 00:10:42.538
  • But sometimes the pain comes from him too.
  • 00:10:42.605 --> 00:10:45.107
  • From him too. my steps are ordered and god
  • 00:10:45.174 --> 00:10:48.644
  • My steps are ordered and god knows which is step three,
  • 00:10:48.711 --> 00:10:51.747
  • Knows which is step three, and which is step one,
  • 00:10:51.814 --> 00:10:53.816
  • And which is step one, and which is step four.
  • 00:10:53.883 --> 00:10:55.985
  • And which is step four. and if i start skipping steps,
  • 00:10:56.052 --> 00:10:59.021
  • And if i start skipping steps, i'm likely to end up on my face,
  • 00:10:59.088 --> 00:11:05.194
  • I'm likely to end up on my face, which is the next thing
  • 00:11:05.261 --> 00:11:06.228
  • Which is the next thing david said in psalm 37:24.
  • 00:11:06.295 --> 00:11:09.932
  • David said in psalm 37:24. he said, watch this,
  • 00:11:09.999 --> 00:11:12.234
  • He said, watch this, "though he fall, he shall not
  • 00:11:12.301 --> 00:11:14.537
  • "though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down
  • 00:11:14.603 --> 00:11:17.206
  • Be utterly cast down for the lord upholdeth him
  • 00:11:17.273 --> 00:11:19.375
  • For the lord upholdeth him with his hand."
  • 00:11:19.442 --> 00:11:20.743
  • With his hand." it means that my confidence
  • 00:11:20.810 --> 00:11:23.145
  • It means that my confidence is not in the stability
  • 00:11:23.212 --> 00:11:24.814
  • Is not in the stability of my feet, my confidence
  • 00:11:24.880 --> 00:11:27.850
  • Of my feet, my confidence is in the sovereignty
  • 00:11:27.917 --> 00:11:29.752
  • Is in the sovereignty of his hand.
  • 00:11:29.819 --> 00:11:31.287
  • Of his hand. you ought to shout right there.
  • 00:11:31.353 --> 00:11:32.888
  • You ought to shout right there. even when i fell,
  • 00:11:32.955 --> 00:11:34.390
  • Even when i fell, even when i tripped,
  • 00:11:34.457 --> 00:11:35.958
  • Even when i tripped, even when i stumbled,
  • 00:11:36.025 --> 00:11:37.560
  • Even when i stumbled, even when i missed it,

  • Even when i missed it, my steps are ordered.
  • 00:11:40.763 --> 00:11:44.533
  • My steps are ordered. and when i fall, i fall forward.
  • 00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:47.803
  • And when i fall, i fall forward. because god's hand
  • 00:11:47.870 --> 00:11:50.673
  • Because god's hand is over my life.
  • 00:11:50.740 --> 00:11:54.443
  • Is over my life. order.
  • 00:11:54.510 --> 00:11:55.544
  • Order. order, everybody say order.
  • 00:11:55.611 --> 00:11:57.713
  • Order, everybody say order. it means sequence.
  • 00:11:57.780 --> 00:12:01.083
  • It means sequence. sequence.
  • 00:12:01.150 --> 00:12:02.952
  • Sequence. that god knows what to do,
  • 00:12:03.018 --> 00:12:05.287
  • That god knows what to do, and when to do it.
  • 00:12:05.354 --> 00:12:08.023
  • And when to do it. there's a sequence to things.
  • 00:12:08.090 --> 00:12:11.193
  • There's a sequence to things. do you trust god's sequence?
  • 00:12:11.260 --> 00:12:15.664
  • Do you trust god's sequence? do you trust that in some
  • 00:12:15.731 --> 00:12:17.833
  • Do you trust that in some seasons he needs to move
  • 00:12:17.900 --> 00:12:19.769
  • Seasons he needs to move you away?
  • 00:12:19.835 --> 00:12:21.837
  • You away? some seasons he needs
  • 00:12:21.904 --> 00:12:22.872
  • Some seasons he needs to move you toward.

  • By the lord, or just the ones that you like?
  • 00:12:32.882 --> 00:12:42.391
  • That you like? because some of you feel

  • 00:19:34.002 --> 00:19:35.804
  • Yeah." because when you're walking
  • 00:19:35.871 --> 00:19:36.605
  • Because when you're walking with god, you don't have to fast
  • 00:19:36.672 --> 00:19:37.940
  • With god, you don't have to fast 21 days to figure out
  • 00:19:38.006 --> 00:19:39.107
  • What he wants you to do.
  • 00:19:39.208 --> 00:19:42.411
  • What he wants you to do. you'll know.

  • When you walk with him every step, you'll know his will.
  • 00:19:47.216 --> 00:19:51.286
  • Step, you'll know his will. and the bible says something
  • 00:19:51.353 --> 00:19:52.521
  • And the bible says something verse four that got
  • 00:19:52.588 --> 00:19:53.522
  • Verse four that got my attention.
  • 00:19:53.589 --> 00:19:55.390
  • It says that, after david
  • 00:19:55.490 --> 00:19:56.825
  • It says that, after david had inquired of the lord,
  • 00:19:56.892 --> 00:20:01.163
  • Had inquired of the lord, the men of judah came to hebron,
  • 00:20:01.230 --> 00:20:03.065
  • The men of judah came to hebron, and there they anointed david,
  • 00:20:03.131 --> 00:20:06.802
  • And there they anointed david, king over the tribe of judah.
  • 00:20:06.868 --> 00:20:08.770
  • King over the tribe of judah. where?
  • 00:20:08.837 --> 00:20:10.072
  • Where? in the place of his next step.
  • 00:20:10.138 --> 00:20:16.778
  • In the place of his next step. often, we want god to give us
  • 00:20:16.845 --> 00:20:22.684
  • Often, we want god to give us confirmation before we obey.
  • 00:20:22.751 --> 00:20:27.155
  • Confirmation before we obey. that's out of order.
  • 00:20:27.222 --> 00:20:30.092
  • That's out of order. god said, your confirmation
  • 00:20:30.158 --> 00:20:32.594
  • God said, your confirmation awaits your obedience.
  • 00:20:32.661 --> 00:20:42.571
  • Awaits your obedience. god, i'll forgive them if you
  • 00:20:42.638 --> 00:20:45.007
  • God, i'll forgive them if you give me the grace
  • 00:20:45.073 --> 00:20:45.774
  • Give me the grace to forgive them.
  • 00:20:45.841 --> 00:20:46.608
  • To forgive them. that's out of order.
  • 00:20:46.675 --> 00:20:47.943
  • That's out of order. you forgive them,
  • 00:20:48.010 --> 00:20:49.077
  • You forgive them, and then you get the grace.
  • 00:20:49.144 --> 00:20:51.346
  • And then you get the grace. it's a decision.
  • 00:20:51.413 --> 00:20:54.549
  • It's a decision. it's a decision
  • 00:20:54.616 --> 00:20:56.285
  • It's a decision that leads to destiny.
  • 00:20:56.351 --> 00:20:58.587
  • That leads to destiny. and every step
  • 00:20:58.654 --> 00:21:00.389
  • And every step is ordered by the lord.
  • 00:21:00.455 --> 00:21:03.025
  • Is ordered by the lord. in fact, if we're doing
  • 00:21:03.091 --> 00:21:04.760
  • In fact, if we're doing it our way, we would praise god
  • 00:21:04.826 --> 00:21:08.096
  • It our way, we would praise god when he moved in our lives.
  • 00:21:08.163 --> 00:21:11.800
  • When he moved in our lives. real praise comes
  • 00:21:11.867 --> 00:21:13.669
  • Real praise comes from a faith of place.
  • 00:21:13.735 --> 00:21:15.937
  • From a faith of place. real faith says, "god i'm going
  • 00:21:16.004 --> 00:21:18.373
  • Real faith says, "god i'm going to praise you on credit,
  • 00:21:18.440 --> 00:21:21.576
  • To praise you on credit, because you've never
  • 00:21:21.643 --> 00:21:22.511
  • Because you've never failed me yet."
  • 00:21:22.577 --> 00:21:24.880
  • Failed me yet." so i'm going to take the next

  • Step by faith, i'm taking the next step by faith,
