The Winning Walk with Dr. Ed Young | Ed Young - Hurt Hurting: Psalm 6 | June 3, 2026
- As christians in the family of god,
- 00:00:01.847 --> 00:00:04.316
- We are supposed to be looking for
- 00:00:04.316 --> 00:00:07.086
- Mephibosheth,
- 00:00:07.086 --> 00:00:10.222
- Looking for chefs.
- 00:00:10.222 --> 00:00:12.925
- Not family, not friends,
- 00:00:12.925 --> 00:00:15.627
- Not connections in business, but people who have needs.
- 00:00:15.627 --> 00:00:19.331
- The up and out, the down and out.
- 00:00:19.331 --> 00:00:21.667
- We're to go and find
- 00:00:21.667 --> 00:00:22.935
- Mephibosheth and tell them, i want to love you to jesus.
- 00:00:22.935 --> 00:00:26.405
- I want to love you to sanity.
- 00:00:26.405 --> 00:00:28.173
- I want to do what i can for you.
- 00:00:28.173 --> 00:00:30.109
- That's what
- 00:00:30.109 --> 00:00:31.310
- We're called as christians to do in a broken, dying world.
- 00:00:31.310 --> 00:00:34.646
- We are all looking for mephibosheth,
- 00:00:34.646 --> 00:00:37.649
- And ladies and gentlemen, they're everywhere around us.
- 00:00:37.649 --> 00:00:41.386
- If we could open our eyes and only see.
- 00:00:41.386 --> 00:01:03.275
- David is hurt.
- 00:01:03.609 --> 00:01:07.479
- He's in pain.
- 00:01:07.846 --> 00:01:11.250
- It's the first of eight different penitential
- 00:01:11.250 --> 00:01:16.121
- Confessional songs.
- 00:01:16.588 --> 00:01:19.725
- David is hurt because people had hurt david.
- 00:01:19.725 --> 00:01:26.765
- And therefore
- 00:01:27.132 --> 00:01:28.200
- He penned this psalm.
- 00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:31.470
- And it is a psalm.
- 00:01:31.470 --> 00:01:32.871
- Remember,
- 00:01:32.871 --> 00:01:35.407
- He didn't sing like elvis,
- 00:01:35.407 --> 00:01:37.442
- But i am sure he was a singer.
- 00:01:37.442 --> 00:01:40.279
- He played the harp.
- 00:01:40.279 --> 00:01:42.181
- He was a musician.
- 00:01:42.181 --> 00:01:45.284
- And he is hurt
- 00:01:45.617 --> 00:01:47.719
- Because he was the run of the family.
- 00:01:47.719 --> 00:01:51.290
- His big, boisterous brothers.
- 00:01:51.924 --> 00:01:54.526
- Strong.
- 00:01:54.526 --> 00:01:55.394
- And he was a ruddy face, little guy.
- 00:01:55.394 --> 00:01:57.963
- And his mom and dad evidently were pretty ashamed of him.
- 00:01:57.963 --> 00:02:01.833
- And they put him out to look after those stinking,
- 00:02:01.833 --> 00:02:04.736
- Dirty sheep.
- 00:02:04.736 --> 00:02:08.507
- And nobody
- 00:02:08.807 --> 00:02:11.043
- Hurt by his family.
- 00:02:11.043 --> 00:02:15.614
- He was hurt also,
- 00:02:16.048 --> 00:02:17.649
- As even though he flew goliath,
- 00:02:17.649 --> 00:02:21.353
- His hero was king saul.
- 00:02:21.853 --> 00:02:23.956
- And saul was jealous of him and hunted him down as an
- 00:02:23.956 --> 00:02:28.694
- Animal, seeking
- 00:02:28.694 --> 00:02:29.828
- To kill him time and time again over a period of years.
- 00:02:29.828 --> 00:02:33.799
- That is very hurtful.
- 00:02:33.799 --> 00:02:38.737
- Many people
- 00:02:39.071 --> 00:02:40.072
- Hurt david through the years.
- 00:02:40.072 --> 00:02:42.841
- Those he had helped turned on him,
- 00:02:42.841 --> 00:02:45.277
- Those he had befriended turned on him
- 00:02:45.277 --> 00:02:48.914
- Until finally, the ultimate pain he received
- 00:02:48.914 --> 00:02:51.850
- Was when his favorite son, absalom,
- 00:02:51.850 --> 00:02:55.754
- Whom he'd given a lot of grace
- 00:02:56.355 --> 00:02:58.190
- To hurt him by
- 00:02:58.190 --> 00:03:01.260
- Leading a revolution
- 00:03:01.260 --> 00:03:02.995
- To kill his dad on the throne and to take his place.
- 00:03:02.995 --> 00:03:06.398
- And over half the kingdom was following this
- 00:03:06.398 --> 00:03:09.434
- Basically godless revolutionary called absent.
- 00:03:09.434 --> 00:03:13.038
- David was hurt.
- 00:03:13.038 --> 00:03:14.673
- He had been hurt by people.
- 00:03:14.673 --> 00:03:17.509
- Also, he was hurt because he had hurt
- 00:03:17.509 --> 00:03:21.480
- People.
- 00:03:21.480 --> 00:03:24.216
- Most dramatic illustration of that.
- 00:03:25.017 --> 00:03:26.918
- We're all familiar with
- 00:03:26.918 --> 00:03:29.921
- By sheba.
- 00:03:29.921 --> 00:03:30.689
- Uriah.
- 00:03:30.689 --> 00:03:32.524
- But the inside story
- 00:03:32.524 --> 00:03:35.260
- Shows that now there had been a revival
- 00:03:35.260 --> 00:03:38.297
- Of the conscience of david and awakening moment.
- 00:03:38.297 --> 00:03:41.967
- All this is in chapter six, a song.
- 00:03:41.967 --> 00:03:45.704
- And he realized that
- 00:03:46.171 --> 00:03:48.473
- The lust of the eyes, ladies and gentlemen,
- 00:03:48.473 --> 00:03:51.343
- David should have been out fighting with his troops.
- 00:03:52.411 --> 00:03:54.913
- They were in a ferocious battle,
- 00:03:54.913 --> 00:03:57.215
- Lasted a long period of time, but david just walked on
- 00:03:57.215 --> 00:04:00.285
- The balcony and looked out and saw his.
- 00:04:00.285 --> 00:04:03.855
- One of his leading commanders wife was bathing.
- 00:04:03.855 --> 00:04:07.125
- Maybe she forgot to fool the shade.
- 00:04:07.893 --> 00:04:10.128
- Maybe she was bathing outside.
- 00:04:10.128 --> 00:04:12.364
- We don't know.
- 00:04:12.364 --> 00:04:13.165
- But the lust of the eye is powerful.
- 00:04:13.165 --> 00:04:17.402
- And then the lust of the flesh.
- 00:04:18.036 --> 00:04:20.939
- Who can turn down the key?
- 00:04:20.939 --> 00:04:23.809
- Who can say no to a king?
- 00:04:24.376 --> 00:04:27.779
- Adultery.
- 00:04:28.080 --> 00:04:30.282
- Then the pride of life got david
- 00:04:30.282 --> 00:04:33.852
- When he was discovered that bathsheba was pregnant.
- 00:04:34.853 --> 00:04:37.389
- David had strategy for that.
- 00:04:37.389 --> 00:04:40.258
- Uriah had been off the battle.
- 00:04:40.258 --> 00:04:41.993
- He knew if she gave birth and her husband
- 00:04:41.993 --> 00:04:44.763
- Hadn't been there
- 00:04:44.763 --> 00:04:45.964
- For a couple of years, it might be a little suspicious.
- 00:04:45.964 --> 00:04:50.802
- So david called ahab
- 00:04:51.269 --> 00:04:54.539
- The cold hearted general and said,
- 00:04:54.539 --> 00:04:58.377
- Send her husband uriah to be home for a while.
- 00:04:58.377 --> 00:05:01.313
- I'll talk strategy with him.
- 00:05:01.313 --> 00:05:03.081
- He's my next door neighbor.
- 00:05:03.081 --> 00:05:06.151
- Uriah came home, but uriah didn't go in
- 00:05:06.151 --> 00:05:09.254
- To be with his wife.
- 00:05:09.254 --> 00:05:12.157
- David said, why?
- 00:05:12.157 --> 00:05:13.258
- He said, i can't go in when your troops
- 00:05:13.258 --> 00:05:16.661
- Are out of the front line fighting for our nation.
- 00:05:16.661 --> 00:05:19.531
- I can't go in and have the pleasures of a husband.
- 00:05:19.531 --> 00:05:22.401
- He slept outside.
- 00:05:22.401 --> 00:05:25.404
- What a man.
- 00:05:25.737 --> 00:05:28.573
- David had a problem.
- 00:05:28.573 --> 00:05:31.276
- That sheba was pregnant.
- 00:05:31.276 --> 00:05:34.179
- Oh, and now he went and asked ahab to take you right.
- 00:05:34.179 --> 00:05:39.684
- And charge the enemy and put him right at the point.
- 00:05:39.684 --> 00:05:43.722
- Almost certainly to be killed.
- 00:05:43.722 --> 00:05:45.323
- And he was killed.
- 00:05:45.323 --> 00:05:48.527
- But, david, the pride of life,
- 00:05:48.527 --> 00:05:51.363
- Ladies and gentlemen, make us do a lot of crazy things.
- 00:05:51.363 --> 00:05:54.332
- Doesn't it lust
- 00:05:54.332 --> 00:05:57.169
- The lust of the flesh now the pride of life.
- 00:05:58.069 --> 00:06:01.039
- And they did.
- 00:06:01.039 --> 00:06:02.174
- Had the perfect cover up.
- 00:06:02.174 --> 00:06:04.009
- He married bathsheba,
- 00:06:04.009 --> 00:06:05.677
- And they all said, look how great the king is.
- 00:06:05.677 --> 00:06:09.281
- He is marrying the widow of his
- 00:06:09.281 --> 00:06:13.084
- Leading one of his leading commanders.
- 00:06:13.084 --> 00:06:16.054
- Cover up
- 00:06:16.321 --> 00:06:18.256
- Went on for a period of time, but we'll touch on the story
- 00:06:18.256 --> 00:06:22.661
- Later. nathan dealt with that,
- 00:06:22.661 --> 00:06:25.430
- And david realized and faced his sin.
- 00:06:25.430 --> 00:06:29.201
- That's part of this, i think, in chapter six.
- 00:06:29.201 --> 00:06:34.005
- David was hurt by others.
- 00:06:34.573 --> 00:06:38.510
- He hurt others.
- 00:06:38.877 --> 00:06:41.613
- And now we have a wake up call in psalm chapter
- 00:06:42.614 --> 00:06:47.152
- Number six.
- 00:06:47.152 --> 00:06:50.188
- That's where we are.
- 00:06:50.188 --> 00:06:53.258
- He put it to music.
- 00:06:53.725 --> 00:06:57.696
- Eight stringed instruments.
- 00:06:58.296 --> 00:07:01.700
- Verse one.
- 00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:03.068
- Oh, lord, he says, do not rebuke me in your anger,
- 00:07:03.068 --> 00:07:06.438
- Lord, chasten or discipline me in your wrath
- 00:07:06.438 --> 00:07:10.041
- And wrath is hot displeasure.
- 00:07:10.041 --> 00:07:12.644
- All of a sudden david knew the relationship with god
- 00:07:12.644 --> 00:07:17.182
- That he'd enjoyed so long.
- 00:07:17.749 --> 00:07:20.352
- David was the apple of god's eye.
- 00:07:21.119 --> 00:07:23.088
- He was blessed,
- 00:07:23.088 --> 00:07:25.190
- Uniquely blessed, called out as a shepherd,
- 00:07:25.190 --> 00:07:29.127
- And now he knew that god had turned his back on him.
- 00:07:29.127 --> 00:07:33.498
- Have you ever
- 00:07:33.498 --> 00:07:34.599
- Had a close friend, or a husband or wife or someone
- 00:07:34.599 --> 00:07:37.802
- And they just turn away from you?
- 00:07:37.802 --> 00:07:41.506
- And david had a friend that god
- 00:07:42.140 --> 00:07:45.877
- And god turned away from him, because god cannot look
- 00:07:45.877 --> 00:07:49.214
- And entertain and cheer garbage and sin in any person's life.
- 00:07:49.214 --> 00:07:54.319
- And now he said, oh, lord, you know,
- 00:07:54.319 --> 00:07:57.389
- Don't, don't just wipe me out.
- 00:07:57.389 --> 00:08:00.525
- But notice in all of this, by the way,
- 00:08:00.525 --> 00:08:02.527
- These ten verses of chapter six, the word lord is mentioned
- 00:08:02.527 --> 00:08:06.932
- Eight times, yahweh, jehovah eight times.
- 00:08:06.932 --> 00:08:11.202
- So he still felt he had that relationship because.
- 00:08:11.202 --> 00:08:15.173
- But he had been hurt by others, and others had hurt him.
- 00:08:15.173 --> 00:08:19.277
- He felt totally estranged.
- 00:08:19.277 --> 00:08:21.246
- You ever wake up in the morning and you're saying, you know,
- 00:08:21.246 --> 00:08:24.015
- Where are you?
- 00:08:24.015 --> 00:08:24.649
- God? why?
- 00:08:24.649 --> 00:08:25.417
- Why is this happening?
- 00:08:25.417 --> 00:08:27.152
- This is david.
- 00:08:27.152 --> 00:08:28.920
- And he says in verse two,
- 00:08:29.487 --> 00:08:30.855
- Oh, be gracious to me, oh lord, i am pining away.
- 00:08:30.855 --> 00:08:34.759
- That is emotional pain.
- 00:08:35.260 --> 00:08:38.330
- That's depression.
- 00:08:38.330 --> 00:08:40.498
- I dare say no one here
- 00:08:40.498 --> 00:08:43.568
- Has not experienced different times of depression,
- 00:08:43.568 --> 00:08:46.137
- Emotional pain, a deadly kind of pain.
- 00:08:46.137 --> 00:08:49.874
- He said, i'm pining away.
- 00:08:50.442 --> 00:08:53.378
- Then he says, heal
- 00:08:53.812 --> 00:08:55.680
- Me, o lord, for my bones are displayed.
- 00:08:55.680 --> 00:08:58.516
- That is physical pain.
- 00:08:58.516 --> 00:09:00.952
- Who can tell me where emotional pain stops
- 00:09:00.952 --> 00:09:03.989
- In physical pain begins?
- 00:09:03.989 --> 00:09:05.557
- It's it's almost interchangeable there.
- 00:09:05.557 --> 00:09:08.493
- They come up together.
- 00:09:08.493 --> 00:09:09.561
- They come in pairs, if not in triplets.
- 00:09:09.561 --> 00:09:12.631
- Look at the next one.
- 00:09:13.131 --> 00:09:14.165
- And my soul.
- 00:09:14.165 --> 00:09:15.133
- The word soul here is the same word for life,
- 00:09:15.133 --> 00:09:19.604
- He said, and my soul is greatly dismayed.
- 00:09:20.472 --> 00:09:24.009
- This is moral pain.
- 00:09:24.009 --> 00:09:27.445
- I got away with it. no one knew.
- 00:09:27.445 --> 00:09:29.447
- No one found out, man.
- 00:09:29.447 --> 00:09:31.449
- I've got it covered up.
- 00:09:31.449 --> 00:09:32.817
- I'm slick. but all of a sudden
- 00:09:32.817 --> 00:09:34.686
- There's exposure and there is moral pain.
- 00:09:34.686 --> 00:09:37.355
- How can you
- 00:09:37.355 --> 00:09:38.523
- Separate those middle pain, physical pain, moral pain?
- 00:09:38.523 --> 00:09:42.794
- They all somehow interplay with one another when we
- 00:09:42.794 --> 00:09:46.331
- Turn our back on god.
- 00:09:46.331 --> 00:09:48.566
- Now, don't misunderstand this.
- 00:09:49.167 --> 00:09:51.002
- I am not saying that all sickness is result of moral
- 00:09:51.002 --> 00:09:54.572
- Pain.
- 00:09:54.572 --> 00:09:55.540
- Don't go home with that foolish assumption.
- 00:09:55.540 --> 00:09:57.409
- I'm not saying.
- 00:09:57.409 --> 00:09:58.610
- But somehow, inextricably, these things are bound together
- 00:09:58.610 --> 00:10:03.581
- And david feels the full impact of it.
- 00:10:03.581 --> 00:10:07.118
- He's saying i'm hurt.
- 00:10:07.619 --> 00:10:09.821
- Then he says the latter part of verse three,
- 00:10:09.821 --> 00:10:11.790
- But you, o lord, how long there is that phrase?
- 00:10:11.790 --> 00:10:16.261
- But thou, o lord, remember.
- 00:10:16.261 --> 00:10:18.697
- But, o lord god, he hoped,
- 00:10:18.697 --> 00:10:22.600
- Hadn't given up on him, and he hadn't given up on god.
- 00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:25.570
- And he asked, how long?
- 00:10:25.570 --> 00:10:28.006
- Now you can't see it in the text.
- 00:10:28.006 --> 00:10:30.975
- But this is a pause.
- 00:10:30.975 --> 00:10:34.579
- You have to be a biblical scholar, which i'm not.
- 00:10:34.579 --> 00:10:37.682
- But it is a pause in the dialog.
- 00:10:37.682 --> 00:10:40.618
- He's saying i'm hurt.
- 00:10:40.618 --> 00:10:42.253
- I've heard others
- 00:10:42.253 --> 00:10:43.354
- And others have hurt me, and he has all this pain
- 00:10:43.354 --> 00:10:46.958
- In his life.
- 00:10:46.958 --> 00:10:47.659
- And then there is a time out.
- 00:10:47.659 --> 00:10:51.196
- You see this rarely in the bible.
- 00:10:51.930 --> 00:10:54.399
- You see it there
- 00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:55.366
- When
- 00:10:55.366 --> 00:10:56.000
- Adam and eve committed sin
- 00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:57.469
- And they were kicked out of the garden.
- 00:10:57.469 --> 00:11:00.338
- And then there is a little phrase in there
- 00:11:00.338 --> 00:11:03.208
- In the genesis of the count.
- 00:11:03.208 --> 00:11:04.909
- Is there any way for adam and eve to get back with god?
- 00:11:04.909 --> 00:11:09.614
- And there is a pause.
- 00:11:09.614 --> 00:11:13.451
- Also, when the people of israel
- 00:11:14.085 --> 00:11:17.088
- Turned back to idols there, and moses received
- 00:11:17.088 --> 00:11:19.924
- The ten commandments of god
- 00:11:19.924 --> 00:11:21.159
- And moses through those commandments down.
- 00:11:21.159 --> 00:11:25.196
- And then there's a pause right there in the hebrew text.
- 00:11:25.196 --> 00:11:29.100
- And the paul's is saying, is there any hope
- 00:11:29.100 --> 00:11:32.137
- Now for moses and the hebrew people?
- 00:11:32.137 --> 00:11:35.240
- A pause, and there's a pause right here.
- 00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:40.278
- David's come to the point and say,
- 00:11:40.278 --> 00:11:43.181
- Is there any hope for me?
- 00:11:43.181 --> 00:11:45.650
- And then he moves on and has a wonderful,
- 00:11:45.650 --> 00:11:49.554
- Wonderful dialog or monologue.
- 00:11:49.554 --> 00:11:52.957
- I guess it was.
- 00:11:52.957 --> 00:11:54.793
- And he says, verse four,
- 00:11:54.793 --> 00:11:57.328
- We're turned to me, o lord, he's away from god.
- 00:11:57.328 --> 00:12:00.331
- Rescue my soul, my nephew.
- 00:12:00.331 --> 00:12:02.433
- There's a word again, same word for life.
- 00:12:02.433 --> 00:12:05.436
- Save me because of your loving kindness.
- 00:12:05.436 --> 00:12:08.573
- Hold on to that phrase.
- 00:12:08.573 --> 00:12:11.442
- Remember, we'll be back to it.
- 00:12:11.442 --> 00:12:13.211
- Loving kindness.
- 00:12:13.211 --> 00:12:14.779
- Any time you're reading in the bible, the word friend.
- 00:12:14.779 --> 00:12:20.118
- It's a reference
- 00:12:20.518 --> 00:12:21.653
- To the blood covenant.
- 00:12:21.653 --> 00:12:24.389
- Marriage is one of god's greatest gifts.
- 00:12:24.389 --> 00:12:27.325
- You might say, next to the gift of our salvation, christ.
- 00:12:27.325 --> 00:12:31.362
- It's number one.
- 00:12:31.362 --> 00:12:32.630
- But let's be honest, it also brings real challenges.
- 00:12:32.630 --> 00:12:36.367
- Every couple of face disagreements, miscommunication
- 00:12:36.367 --> 00:12:41.673
- Or financial pressure, family tensions, and seasons
- 00:12:41.673 --> 00:12:45.009
- Of frustration in the whole area of marriage.
- 00:12:45.009 --> 00:12:47.946
- You know, saying that if you're married, left unchecked,
- 00:12:47.946 --> 00:12:52.183
- Those struggles can slowly erode into
- 00:12:52.183 --> 00:12:55.920
- Even a marriage that should be great.
- 00:12:55.920 --> 00:12:57.689
- Into a marriage, that's just okay.
- 00:12:57.689 --> 00:13:00.391
- But that does not have to be your story.
- 00:13:00.391 --> 00:13:04.362
- In the ten commandments of marriage,
- 00:13:04.362 --> 00:13:06.164
- I share biblical truth, practical wisdom,
- 00:13:06.164 --> 00:13:09.100

- Based on love and joy, and a lasting commitment
- 00:13:26.150 --> 00:13:29.721
- That's filled with laughter and pleasure and excitement.
- 00:13:29.721 --> 00:13:34.993
- Listen, god never intended marriage to be.
- 00:13:34.993 --> 00:13:38.763
- Let's just survive and hang on.
- 00:13:38.763 --> 00:13:41.299

- And they would say, i would cover you.
- 00:17:53.885 --> 00:17:55.720
- And then we would exchange sword, here's my sword,
- 00:17:55.720 --> 00:17:58.990
- And they would give me their sword.
- 00:17:58.990 --> 00:18:00.591
- And i would say,
- 00:18:00.591 --> 00:18:01.526
- And they would say, anybody gets to you,
- 00:18:01.526 --> 00:18:03.761
- They have to come through my sword.
- 00:18:03.761 --> 00:18:05.897

- And i will give the shield, and he will give his shield
- 00:18:07.465 --> 00:18:10.268

- My covenant brother.
- 00:18:17.842 --> 00:18:20.244
- And then they would go and say, i will give you my belt.
- 00:18:20.244 --> 00:18:24.115
- That which holds me all
- 00:18:24.615 --> 00:18:25.950

- That's how this brotherhood, this blood relationship.
- 00:18:36.761 --> 00:18:40.464
- And the next thing you do, they would bring an animal.
- 00:18:40.464 --> 00:18:44.235
- They would cut the animal in half, maybe in quarter
- 00:18:44.235 --> 00:18:47.538
- Sometime.
- 00:18:47.538 --> 00:18:48.706
- And you would stand back to back.
- 00:18:48.706 --> 00:18:51.676
- And then you walk with a figure eight
- 00:18:51.676 --> 00:18:53.978
- Through that blood and through the animal there.
- 00:18:53.978 --> 00:18:56.714
- Walk all around into figure eight,
- 00:18:56.714 --> 00:18:59.483
- Through the blood, through the halves of the animals.
- 00:18:59.483 --> 00:19:02.353
- And then you would come face to face with your brother,
- 00:19:02.353 --> 00:19:06.157
- With your soon to be blood brother.
- 00:19:06.157 --> 00:19:08.960
- And then you would cut your wrist
- 00:19:08.960 --> 00:19:11.295
- Right there in the blood covenant, saying half hand,
- 00:19:11.295 --> 00:19:14.232
- Half risk right there.
- 00:19:14.232 --> 00:19:16.100
- Then the other would do the same thing.
- 00:19:16.100 --> 00:19:18.836
- Then you would hold your hand up
- 00:19:18.836 --> 00:19:20.404
- And you would swear yourself in allegiance to this brother.
- 00:19:20.404 --> 00:19:24.408
- That's where we get historically,
- 00:19:25.109 --> 00:19:27.845
- In accordance with bayes, your right hand.
- 00:19:27.845 --> 00:19:30.114
- Swear to tell the truth.
- 00:19:30.114 --> 00:19:31.282
- You swear to tell the truth, and then you would come
- 00:19:31.282 --> 00:19:35.119
- And shake hands with blood, use his blood, you're mingling.
- 00:19:35.119 --> 00:19:39.323
- And then you would take.
- 00:19:39.323 --> 00:19:40.558
- And you would bind together that blood covenant place.
- 00:19:40.558 --> 00:19:44.996
- That blood and his blood would be your blood,
- 00:19:44.996 --> 00:19:47.465
- And your blood would be his blood.
- 00:19:47.465 --> 00:19:49.867
- And then following this,
- 00:19:49.867 --> 00:19:52.103
- You would go and have a meal together.
- 00:19:52.103 --> 00:19:54.472
- You would drink out of the same cup.
- 00:19:54.472 --> 00:19:56.340
- You'd share
- 00:19:56.340 --> 00:19:57.541
- Bread with that person and there would be a celebration.
- 00:19:57.541 --> 00:20:01.712
- Then you would put powder in this place.
- 00:20:01.712 --> 00:20:04.382
- So for the rest of your life,
- 00:20:04.382 --> 00:20:06.017
- There would be a skin there that would be raised,
- 00:20:06.017 --> 00:20:08.352
- That would be a different color.
- 00:20:08.352 --> 00:20:09.720
- So somebody would look at your wrist and their wrist.
- 00:20:09.720 --> 00:20:12.456
- You would say, hey, hey, right here.
- 00:20:12.456 --> 00:20:15.226
- That person has a blood brother.
- 00:20:15.226 --> 00:20:17.595
- You see it there.
- 00:20:17.595 --> 00:20:19.664
- Now move on to the new testament.
- 00:20:20.398 --> 00:20:24.402
- How does this fit all the sacrificial system?
- 00:20:24.402 --> 00:20:27.338
- Saying blood must be shed.
- 00:20:27.338 --> 00:20:28.939
- We were singing about it while ago.
- 00:20:28.939 --> 00:20:31.142
- In order for sin to be forgiven, a life must be taken.
- 00:20:31.142 --> 00:20:34.745
- And then you go to jesus there, and he is on the cross.
- 00:20:34.745 --> 00:20:39.583
- And when they nailed the cross, where did they put the nails
- 00:20:39.583 --> 00:20:42.553
- In jesus?
- 00:20:42.553 --> 00:20:43.587
- Technically not in his hand
- 00:20:43.587 --> 00:20:45.222
- Because they would have ripped away.
- 00:20:45.222 --> 00:20:47.358
- They would be right in that blood covenant.
- 00:20:47.358 --> 00:20:49.860
- Part hand, part wrist.
- 00:20:49.860 --> 00:20:51.562
- That's where jesus was nailed to the cross.
- 00:20:51.562 --> 00:20:54.865
- He would have been the passover lamb.
- 00:20:54.865 --> 00:20:57.234
- You know the biblical context of that.
- 00:20:57.234 --> 00:20:59.303
- They would take a lamb,
- 00:20:59.303 --> 00:21:00.404
- They would kill it once a year, and there would be
- 00:21:00.404 --> 00:21:03.040
- Hands would be placed on it, and that would be all the sins
- 00:21:03.040 --> 00:21:05.976
- Of the world.
- 00:21:05.976 --> 00:21:07.144
- And jesus there anyone could see was the passover lamb.
- 00:21:07.144 --> 00:21:10.915
- The blood would have been shed.
- 00:21:10.915 --> 00:21:13.417
- Go to the upper room.
- 00:21:13.417 --> 00:21:14.685
- I'm leaving out a lot.
- 00:21:14.685 --> 00:21:15.820
- I could you could trace it all the way
- 00:21:15.820 --> 00:21:17.521
- Through the bible from genesis to revelation.
- 00:21:17.521 --> 00:21:20.224
- The trail of blood, the trail of blood.
- 00:21:20.224 --> 00:21:22.960
- There is life in the blood.
- 00:21:22.960 --> 00:21:25.629
- And so we see the new covenant,
- 00:21:25.629 --> 00:21:28.466
- The new contract that's now between you and me and god.
- 00:21:28.466 --> 00:21:31.702
- Through christ and all those who come
- 00:21:31.702 --> 00:21:33.704
- To receive him, our sins are forgiven,
- 00:21:33.704 --> 00:21:36.474
- That only forgiven they are eliminated.
- 00:21:36.474 --> 00:21:38.642
- They're not covered as they were
- 00:21:38.642 --> 00:21:40.144
- With the animal sacrifice, the old testament.
- 00:21:40.144 --> 00:21:42.680
- They're eliminated with the healing,
- 00:21:42.680 --> 00:21:44.215
- Cleansing blood of the new testament,
- 00:21:44.215 --> 00:21:47.118
- New covenant, old covenant, blood brothers. now
- 00:21:47.118 --> 00:21:50.688
- Let's move back to david.
- 00:21:51.255 --> 00:21:53.824
- David was on the throne.
- 00:21:53.824 --> 00:21:55.192
- He'd been on the throne
- 00:21:55.192 --> 00:21:56.093
- For a number of years, and with his 160 iq,
- 00:21:56.093 --> 00:21:59.764
- He thought, the saul
- 00:21:59.764 --> 00:22:02.733
- Have any family left?
- 00:22:03.234 --> 00:22:05.803
- He was not blood family, remember, though,
- 00:22:05.803 --> 00:22:09.106
- He's in a blood relationship with saul, son.
- 00:22:09.106 --> 00:22:13.043
- And somebody said, yeah, he's got
- 00:22:13.744 --> 00:22:17.214
- There's one person left.
- 00:22:17.214 --> 00:22:20.017
- It's jonathan's son, his name is mephibosheth.
- 00:22:20.017 --> 00:22:24.355
- And david said, go find him and bring him to me.
- 00:22:24.355 --> 00:22:27.425
- Well, if, when, when the revolution took place
- 00:22:27.425 --> 00:22:31.695
- Before the ship was a baby and the nurse picked up baby
- 00:22:31.695 --> 00:22:35.099
- Ship and was running
- 00:22:35.099 --> 00:22:36.000
- Because david was coming into power,
- 00:22:36.000 --> 00:22:38.502
- What happens when a new king comes into power?
- 00:22:38.502 --> 00:22:41.071
- Historically, all the way through history,
- 00:22:41.071 --> 00:22:43.774
- All the way up to sodom, who say they killed
- 00:22:43.774 --> 00:22:46.444
- Anybody who'd be in contested for the throne, right?
- 00:22:46.444 --> 00:22:48.979
- Any of the family that would have lineage.
- 00:22:48.979 --> 00:22:51.348
- And so the nurse picks up mephibosheth running,
- 00:22:51.348 --> 00:22:54.018
- Because david is now going to be the king,
- 00:22:54.018 --> 00:22:56.120
- And the nurse trips
- 00:22:56.120 --> 00:22:57.421
- And little chefs goes down and breaks both legs.
- 00:22:57.421 --> 00:23:01.225
- And therefore, in that day before, she never walked.
- 00:23:01.225 --> 00:23:04.829
- But that nurse took a ship and went in hiding
- 00:23:04.829 --> 00:23:08.699
- In a place called load bar.
- 00:23:08.699 --> 00:23:11.635
- I remember hearing a mountain preacher
- 00:23:12.470 --> 00:23:14.238
- Pronounce that it sounded like it had 15 syllables.
- 00:23:14.238 --> 00:23:17.041
- Low departure.
- 00:23:17.041 --> 00:23:19.477
- And so david said, now
- 00:23:19.944 --> 00:23:21.512
- Go and find the any air.
- 00:23:21.512 --> 00:23:25.282
- They said, yeah, jonathan's got air.
- 00:23:25.282 --> 00:23:28.419
- He's a big guy now.
- 00:23:28.419 --> 00:23:30.020
- He's he's in his 20s.
- 00:23:30.020 --> 00:23:31.822
- He said, bring him to me.
- 00:23:31.822 --> 00:23:33.023
- Well, all of his life.
- 00:23:33.023 --> 00:23:34.058
- What did you ever heard?
- 00:23:34.058 --> 00:23:35.759
- Hey, david, he's in the throne.
- 00:23:35.759 --> 00:23:37.695
- You deserve you and royal.
- 00:23:37.695 --> 00:23:39.096
- Hey, david. hey, david.
- 00:23:39.096 --> 00:23:40.564
- That's all he heard.
- 00:23:40.564 --> 00:23:42.066
- Hey, david.
- 00:23:42.066 --> 00:23:42.933
- And so, boy,
- 00:23:42.933 --> 00:23:43.968
- When they came from a ship, he said, this is it.
- 00:23:43.968 --> 00:23:46.804
- And they took him back to david.
- 00:23:46.804 --> 00:23:48.639
- And when he went in, he fell flat of his face.
- 00:23:48.639 --> 00:23:51.375
- And david said, let's have a shelf.
- 00:23:51.375 --> 00:23:55.446
- Look here.
- 00:23:55.746 --> 00:23:57.815
- Context. you see this?
- 00:23:57.815 --> 00:23:59.783
- See this darker spot?
- 00:23:59.783 --> 00:24:01.385
- See this raised spot?
- 00:24:01.385 --> 00:24:03.187
- He said, you're daddy,
- 00:24:03.187 --> 00:24:05.923
- You're daddy.
- 00:24:05.923 --> 00:24:07.525
- Jonathan, my blood brother.
- 00:24:07.525 --> 00:24:10.761
- He said, i brought you here.
- 00:24:10.761 --> 00:24:12.763
- You're going to get all that heritage that king saul had.
- 00:24:12.763 --> 00:24:15.533
- You'll get all the heritage your dad had.
- 00:24:15.533 --> 00:24:17.701
- You're going to come and sit at the table with me,
- 00:24:17.701 --> 00:24:22.339
- What a moment.
- 00:24:22.673 --> 00:24:24.942
- That's the real heart of our guy
- 00:24:24.942 --> 00:24:27.978
- David, who's so hurting in this psalm.
- 00:24:27.978 --> 00:24:31.949
- Let's move ahead.
- 00:24:32.383 --> 00:24:35.553
- Ladies and gentlemen,
- 00:24:35.553 --> 00:24:37.454
- As christians in the family of god,
- 00:24:37.454 --> 00:24:40.124
- We are supposed to be looking for
- 00:24:40.124 --> 00:24:42.893
- Mephibosheth,
- 00:24:42.893 --> 00:24:46.030
- Looking for chefs.
- 00:24:46.030 --> 00:24:48.732
- Not family, not friends,
- 00:24:48.732 --> 00:24:51.435
- Not connections in business, but people who have needs.
- 00:24:51.435 --> 00:24:55.139
- The up and out, the down and out.
- 00:24:55.139 --> 00:24:57.474
- We're to go and find
- 00:24:57.474 --> 00:24:58.742
- Mephibosheth and tell them, i want to love you to jesus.
- 00:24:58.742 --> 00:25:02.212
- I want to love you to sanity.
- 00:25:02.212 --> 00:25:03.981
- I want to do what i can for you.
- 00:25:03.981 --> 00:25:05.916
- That's what
- 00:25:05.916 --> 00:25:07.117
- We're called as christians to do in a broken, dying world.
- 00:25:07.117 --> 00:25:10.454
- We are all looking for mephibosheth,
- 00:25:10.454 --> 00:25:13.457
- And ladies and gentlemen, they're everywhere around us.
- 00:25:13.457 --> 00:25:17.194
- If we could open our eyes and only see
- 00:25:17.194 --> 00:25:20.898
- The fifth of chefs.
- 00:25:21.365 --> 00:25:23.867
- All those words, friend.
- 00:25:23.867 --> 00:25:25.703
- Kindness, loving kindness, blood, covenant.
- 00:25:25.703 --> 00:25:28.572
- We are to be in the business of bringing people
- 00:25:28.572 --> 00:25:31.842
- Under the blood covenant of jesus christ.
- 00:25:31.842 --> 00:25:37.648
- There are people everywhere who need
- 00:25:38.449 --> 00:25:42.987
- A friend
- 00:25:43.253 --> 00:25:45.189
- There.
- 00:25:45.189 --> 00:25:45.623
- Mephibosheth,
- 00:25:45.623 --> 00:25:48.125
- Their cows, all walks of life.
- 00:25:48.125 --> 00:25:52.763
- My brothers and my sisters.
- 00:25:53.364 --> 00:25:55.633
- We need to be on the lookout,
- 00:25:55.633 --> 00:25:57.868
- Led by the holy spirit, to find some shells.
- 00:25:57.868 --> 00:26:02.072
- It will heal our land.
- 00:26:02.072 --> 00:26:07.111
- Marriages today face more pressures than ever.
- 00:26:08.012 --> 00:26:11.148
- Many couples live
- 00:26:11.148 --> 00:26:12.616
- With stress, disappointment, distance and discouragement,
- 00:26:12.616 --> 00:26:16.453
- Wondering if the joy they want shared can ever return.
- 00:26:16.453 --> 00:26:20.391
