The Winning Walk with Dr. Ed Young | Ed Young - The Will of God | January 19, 2026
- Years come and years go.
- 00:00:02.115 --> 00:00:04.184
- But god's faithfulness never fades and never gets them.
- 00:00:04.184 --> 00:00:09.422
- His love doesn't weaken with time, and his word
- 00:00:09.422 --> 00:00:12.959
- Never loses its power.
- 00:00:12.959 --> 00:00:15.428
- As we step into this new year,
- 00:00:15.428 --> 00:00:17.931
- We're reminded that a successful,
- 00:00:17.931 --> 00:00:20.166
- Victorious life isn't found in our circumstances.
- 00:00:20.166 --> 00:00:24.237
- It's found in a daily, wide, consistent walk with god,
- 00:00:24.237 --> 00:00:29.175
- Who is unchangeable in his presence.
- 00:00:29.175 --> 00:00:32.846
- We discover how to walk strong,
- 00:00:32.846 --> 00:00:36.282
- How to walk confidently, and how to walk forward
- 00:00:36.282 --> 00:00:39.652
- With assurance that we're on his team.
- 00:00:39.652 --> 00:00:42.989
- Welcome today to the winning
- 00:00:43.590 --> 00:00:45.692
- Walk.
- 00:00:45.692 --> 00:01:07.647
- Our heavenly father,
- 00:01:08.114 --> 00:01:10.383
- Forgive all of us when we have put
- 00:01:10.383 --> 00:01:12.218
- Self and selfishness ahead
- 00:01:12.218 --> 00:01:15.255
- Of kingdom purposes.
- 00:01:15.255 --> 00:01:17.991
- Right now, i pray, would you speak
- 00:01:17.991 --> 00:01:19.926
- And let me get out of the way?
- 00:01:19.926 --> 00:01:22.829
- Is our petition in jesus name?
- 00:01:22.829 --> 00:01:25.865
- Amen.
- 00:01:26.099 --> 00:01:30.136
- We could offer after this service
- 00:01:30.870 --> 00:01:34.374
- 25 or 30 classes in which you and i could attend
- 00:01:35.341 --> 00:01:39.412
- On all sorts of subjects.
- 00:01:39.979 --> 00:01:42.682
- Biblical subjects, 25 or 30 classes.
- 00:01:42.682 --> 00:01:46.986
- And in one of those classes we would entitled it
- 00:01:46.986 --> 00:01:50.423
- How to know the will of god.
- 00:01:51.024 --> 00:01:54.427
- I guarantee you that class
- 00:01:54.994 --> 00:01:58.031
- Would fill up
- 00:01:58.398 --> 00:02:00.733
- For any of the other classes
- 00:02:00.733 --> 00:02:02.635
- That we'd offer.
- 00:02:02.635 --> 00:02:05.872
- Have you ever watched a road lizard?
- 00:02:06.639 --> 00:02:09.309
- Not much.
- 00:02:09.309 --> 00:02:11.444
- A road lizards, they just squirm around.
- 00:02:11.444 --> 00:02:14.881
- Similar to that rhyme or reason,
- 00:02:14.881 --> 00:02:16.816
- They get in the highway, the roads and.
- 00:02:16.816 --> 00:02:19.185
- And they're capricious.
- 00:02:19.185 --> 00:02:21.321
- And you don't know
- 00:02:21.321 --> 00:02:22.555
- If they're looking for food or they run right into trouble.
- 00:02:22.555 --> 00:02:25.024
- They're just.
- 00:02:25.024 --> 00:02:27.994
- And i use the phrase crazy as a road lizard.
- 00:02:27.994 --> 00:02:31.798
- You know what i'm talking about. sure you do.
- 00:02:31.798 --> 00:02:34.534
- A lot of us seek the mind of
- 00:02:35.134 --> 00:02:37.270
- The will of god like a road lizard.
- 00:02:37.270 --> 00:02:40.873
- And i've been guilty of this.
- 00:02:41.507 --> 00:02:42.809
- And maybe you have.
- 00:02:42.809 --> 00:02:44.577
- We have a decision to make.
- 00:02:44.577 --> 00:02:47.380
- Want to let god get in on it.
- 00:02:47.380 --> 00:02:49.482
- And hopefully we're a part of what he's leading us to do.
- 00:02:49.482 --> 00:02:52.385
- And we flip a coin and say, well, heads, i'll do this
- 00:02:52.385 --> 00:02:55.455
- And i'll do this.
- 00:02:55.455 --> 00:02:56.956
- Road lizard
- 00:02:56.956 --> 00:02:59.158
- Methodology of seeking god's will and plan.
- 00:02:59.158 --> 00:03:02.161
- Or we look for the magic bible verse.
- 00:03:02.161 --> 00:03:05.832
- Lord, i don't know what to do.
- 00:03:05.832 --> 00:03:07.233
- Please give me inside bag.
- 00:03:07.233 --> 00:03:09.469
- That's it.
- 00:03:09.469 --> 00:03:10.103
- Oh, yes.
- 00:03:10.103 --> 00:03:11.170
- You spoke to me.
- 00:03:11.170 --> 00:03:13.940
- Or we make list of pro and con on that decision.
- 00:03:13.940 --> 00:03:18.578
- And the longest list.
- 00:03:19.078 --> 00:03:21.180
- That's how we go.
- 00:03:21.180 --> 00:03:22.115
- Forgetting that the priorities on the list
- 00:03:22.115 --> 00:03:25.285
- Should be the thing that most gives us insight.
- 00:03:25.285 --> 00:03:28.921
- Road, laser
- 00:03:29.255 --> 00:03:30.490
- Methodology of trying to find the will of god.
- 00:03:30.490 --> 00:03:34.661
- And sometimes ask whether there's a biblical principle
- 00:03:34.661 --> 00:03:37.297
- There in judges six.
- 00:03:37.297 --> 00:03:38.831
- I put a fleece out.
- 00:03:38.831 --> 00:03:39.966
- Remember, it's wet tomorrow and it's dry today.
- 00:03:39.966 --> 00:03:42.735
- Listen,
- 00:03:42.735 --> 00:03:43.970
- That method is not available to us at this moment in time.
- 00:03:43.970 --> 00:03:46.939
- That was one situation there with joshua.
- 00:03:46.939 --> 00:03:49.442
- Period.
- 00:03:49.442 --> 00:03:51.978
- And we see it all over the place.
- 00:03:51.978 --> 00:03:54.113
- And some of us fall back into that trap.
- 00:03:54.113 --> 00:03:57.717
- Now, if you are in christ
- 00:03:58.284 --> 00:04:00.320
- And i am in christ,
- 00:04:00.320 --> 00:04:03.156
- The bible
- 00:04:03.156 --> 00:04:05.191
- Tells us, and we know because we're seeking the
- 00:04:05.191 --> 00:04:08.361
- Leadership of the holy spirit.
- 00:04:08.361 --> 00:04:10.029
- Some basic principles of discovering
- 00:04:10.029 --> 00:04:13.566
- The will of god.
- 00:04:13.566 --> 00:04:15.935
- And because god loves us, and if we're in christ,
- 00:04:15.935 --> 00:04:18.938
- Does it seem strange to anybody here
- 00:04:18.938 --> 00:04:21.841
- That god is putting his plan and purpose
- 00:04:21.841 --> 00:04:25.011
- For your life in my life in some mysterious, hidden way?
- 00:04:25.011 --> 00:04:29.048
- Does that sound like a god who loves us?
- 00:04:29.048 --> 00:04:30.950
- We know that when we're living in action
- 00:04:31.818 --> 00:04:33.586
- According to his plan.
- 00:04:33.586 --> 00:04:34.654
- In this world, in this universe, for you and for me.
- 00:04:34.654 --> 00:04:37.623
- And you think he's.
- 00:04:37.623 --> 00:04:38.691
- I don't want them to find out.
- 00:04:38.691 --> 00:04:40.259
- Oh, i sure hope they don't find out and find
- 00:04:40.259 --> 00:04:43.863
- The will of god for some is like an easter egg. god.
- 00:04:43.863 --> 00:04:46.566
- We do that every year with our grandkids.
- 00:04:47.400 --> 00:04:49.435
- We hide eggs all over the place and and they want to
- 00:04:49.435 --> 00:04:52.171
- Find the golden egg and they ain't looking.
- 00:04:52.171 --> 00:04:54.574
- Will say you're getting hotter
- 00:04:54.574 --> 00:04:57.910
- Or you're getting colder.
- 00:04:58.478 --> 00:05:00.813
- Does god operate like that?
- 00:05:00.813 --> 00:05:02.181
- Where are you getting close to knowing what i want you to do.
- 00:05:02.181 --> 00:05:05.385
- But i'm telling you, you.
- 00:05:05.385 --> 00:05:06.853
- Oh, no. you're getting cold.
- 00:05:06.853 --> 00:05:08.388
- You think almighty god is operating like that
- 00:05:08.388 --> 00:05:12.325
- And trying to give instruction, insight, and his wisdom
- 00:05:12.325 --> 00:05:16.396
- In the decision making process of your life.
- 00:05:16.396 --> 00:05:19.165
- In my life.
- 00:05:19.165 --> 00:05:20.666
- We've been studying romans chapter number eight,
- 00:05:21.667 --> 00:05:23.936
- And we're going to be there for a while yet.
- 00:05:23.936 --> 00:05:26.773
- And we've already ran into there
- 00:05:27.507 --> 00:05:28.941
- In the 26th verse last week.
- 00:05:28.941 --> 00:05:30.676
- If you missed it,
- 00:05:30.676 --> 00:05:31.778
- You missed one of the pivotal verses in the bible.
- 00:05:31.778 --> 00:05:34.514
- Remember, it says the holy spirit when we're praying,
- 00:05:35.581 --> 00:05:39.051
- Helps us remember the word, helps.
- 00:05:39.819 --> 00:05:42.889
- Big a long greek
- 00:05:43.289 --> 00:05:44.824
- Word soon and he la mano to remember it.
- 00:05:44.824 --> 00:05:47.760
- And what does it mean?
- 00:05:47.760 --> 00:05:48.928
- It means that so many times we do not know how to pray
- 00:05:48.928 --> 00:05:52.632
- And we say something.
- 00:05:53.132 --> 00:05:54.600
- We're seeking god's mind, god's will for healing, for
- 00:05:54.600 --> 00:05:57.770
- For guidance and whatever the situation might be.
- 00:05:57.770 --> 00:06:00.873
- And that verse gives us assurance that the holy spirit
- 00:06:00.873 --> 00:06:05.611
- Helps goes over where we are.
- 00:06:05.611 --> 00:06:09.515
- We don't know exactly how to pray
- 00:06:09.515 --> 00:06:12.018
- And takes hold of
- 00:06:12.452 --> 00:06:14.053
- Us soon with any on the other side.
- 00:06:14.053 --> 00:06:16.823
- Lombardo takes hold of you and me as we're trying to pray
- 00:06:16.823 --> 00:06:21.627
- And prays on our behalf and write down this principle.
- 00:06:21.627 --> 00:06:25.765
- I said it last week.
- 00:06:25.765 --> 00:06:27.066
- I can say it a thousand times,
- 00:06:27.066 --> 00:06:29.969
- A thousand times.
- 00:06:30.403 --> 00:06:32.438
- This is a basic principle.
- 00:06:32.438 --> 00:06:34.440
- The holy spirit helps you and i to pray.
- 00:06:34.440 --> 00:06:38.478
- As you and i would pray
- 00:06:38.478 --> 00:06:41.314
- If we knew what god knows.
- 00:06:41.881 --> 00:06:45.651
- Have you ever tried to read
- 00:06:46.252 --> 00:06:48.120
- A historical novel out of order?
- 00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:51.090
- It would be hard, if not impossible, to understand.
- 00:06:51.090 --> 00:06:53.826
- The plot would.
- 00:06:53.826 --> 00:06:55.428
- And yet we read have studied the bible in much the same way.
- 00:06:55.428 --> 00:06:59.098
- Like a novel, the bible tells a story
- 00:06:59.098 --> 00:07:01.434
- With the beginning of middle and end,
- 00:07:01.434 --> 00:07:03.903
- And when you read in chronological order,
- 00:07:03.903 --> 00:07:06.138
- You will see history unfold in a new
- 00:07:06.138 --> 00:07:08.608
- And understandable and memorable way.
- 00:07:08.608 --> 00:07:11.744

- The full story of the bible.
- 00:07:35.234 --> 00:07:38.804
- To get your copy of the one year chronological bible.
- 00:07:38.804 --> 00:07:41.440

- Or go online at winning walk.org.
- 00:07:42.842 --> 00:07:49.081
- Stay with that.
- 00:07:49.448 --> 00:07:51.150
- Don't say hi.
- 00:07:51.150 --> 00:07:51.784
- Got it? no, stay with it.
- 00:07:51.784 --> 00:07:54.687
- So we pray
- 00:07:54.687 --> 00:07:56.722
- And our prayers go out to the lord.
- 00:07:56.722 --> 00:07:59.659
- And sometimes we pray in ignorance and stupidity,
- 00:07:59.659 --> 00:08:03.896
- Even though we're sincere.
- 00:08:03.896 --> 00:08:06.132
- But the good news is we cannot miss.
- 00:08:06.132 --> 00:08:09.235
- Pray.
- 00:08:09.235 --> 00:08:10.503
- And then we come to the verse.
- 00:08:10.503 --> 00:08:12.104
- Just a part of the verse
- 00:08:12.104 --> 00:08:13.706
- We're looking at today that deals with god's will.
- 00:08:13.706 --> 00:08:16.709
- Hope you have your bibles with you.
- 00:08:16.709 --> 00:08:19.111
- Open if you would.
- 00:08:19.111 --> 00:08:20.346
- Romans chapter eight, verse 26.
- 00:08:20.346 --> 00:08:23.482
- We looked at it last week.
- 00:08:23.482 --> 00:08:24.750
- Let me restated
- 00:08:24.750 --> 00:08:26.886
- In the same way
- 00:08:26.886 --> 00:08:29.288
- The holy spirit helps,
- 00:08:29.288 --> 00:08:32.191
- But we do not know how to pray as we should,
- 00:08:32.191 --> 00:08:34.527
- But the spirit himself intercedes
- 00:08:34.527 --> 00:08:37.096
- For us with groanings too deep for words.
- 00:08:37.096 --> 00:08:40.433
- You follow me.
- 00:08:40.433 --> 00:08:41.801
- Then verse 27, and he who searches
- 00:08:41.801 --> 00:08:45.438
- The heart, who searches our hearts, jesus.
- 00:08:45.438 --> 00:08:48.908
- Jesus searches our hearts.
- 00:08:49.475 --> 00:08:52.645
- He searches our hearts, knows the mind of the spirit.
- 00:08:52.645 --> 00:08:56.282
- Jesus knows the holy spirit because the holy spirit,
- 00:08:56.282 --> 00:08:59.285
- Primarily member is honoring jesus.
- 00:08:59.285 --> 00:09:03.222
- Because he intercedes jesus for the saints,
- 00:09:04.156 --> 00:09:08.694
- According to there's our phrase, will of god.
- 00:09:08.694 --> 00:09:12.498
- Don't get lost in that.
- 00:09:12.498 --> 00:09:15.034
- He's saying, god the father, god the son, god
- 00:09:15.034 --> 00:09:17.169
- The holy spirit is involved in all of our prayers,
- 00:09:17.169 --> 00:09:19.839
- And god the father and god the holy spirit is involved
- 00:09:19.839 --> 00:09:22.608
- In helping
- 00:09:22.608 --> 00:09:23.743
- You and i to know what god wants us to do and decide,
- 00:09:23.743 --> 00:09:26.312
- And how we are to live in that particular unique situations
- 00:09:26.312 --> 00:09:30.082
- That unique to every single one of us.
- 00:09:30.082 --> 00:09:33.452
- So we see here that when we pray,
- 00:09:34.153 --> 00:09:38.557
- Jesus searches our hearts
- 00:09:39.125 --> 00:09:41.927
- Because jesus knows the mind of the spirit
- 00:09:42.795 --> 00:09:45.364
- And the holy spirit
- 00:09:45.364 --> 00:09:46.766
- Takes our verbiage, we're offering to god,
- 00:09:46.766 --> 00:09:49.669
- And it goes again through jesus as our intersect,
- 00:09:49.669 --> 00:09:53.105
- Or at the right hand of the father.
- 00:09:53.105 --> 00:09:55.241
- And out of this comes the will of god.
- 00:09:55.241 --> 00:09:59.712
- Reveal to you.
- 00:10:00.046 --> 00:10:01.147
- Reveal to me.
- 00:10:01.147 --> 00:10:03.783
- Now let me break it down a little bit and talk about
- 00:10:03.783 --> 00:10:08.287
- The will of god, the purpose of god, the plan of god.
- 00:10:08.287 --> 00:10:12.825
- First of all, the will of god
- 00:10:12.825 --> 00:10:15.861
- Is hidden.
- 00:10:16.162 --> 00:10:17.296
- There is a hidden will of god.
- 00:10:17.296 --> 00:10:20.433
- And if you're a
- 00:10:20.800 --> 00:10:21.834
- Theologian that is under the sovereignty of god.
- 00:10:21.834 --> 00:10:25.304
- In other words, you say more of my life,
- 00:10:25.304 --> 00:10:26.772
- Our people, my life is all messed up.
- 00:10:26.772 --> 00:10:29.709
- I made a wrong decision.
- 00:10:29.709 --> 00:10:30.910
- I got married and i should have done this,
- 00:10:30.910 --> 00:10:33.179
- And i should have done that.
- 00:10:33.179 --> 00:10:34.146
- I should have stayed and i moved
- 00:10:34.146 --> 00:10:35.915
- And the grass looked greener on the other side.
- 00:10:35.915 --> 00:10:38.017
- There ain't no green grass.
- 00:10:38.017 --> 00:10:43.923
- And therefore, sometimes we're seeking
- 00:10:41.320 --> 00:10:46.125
- God's will and we realize it is hidden to us.
- 00:10:46.125 --> 00:10:50.863
- And the
- 00:10:51.097 --> 00:10:52.098
- Hidden part of god's will is a super thing.
- 00:10:52.098 --> 00:10:54.366
- Because you and i follow me
- 00:10:54.366 --> 00:10:56.769
- Most of the time, know that we're in god's will
- 00:10:56.769 --> 00:11:00.206
- Only as we look in the rearview mirror,
- 00:11:00.206 --> 00:11:03.476
- We look back in the rearview mirror and we say,
- 00:11:03.476 --> 00:11:06.312
- You know, i didn't know god was there.
- 00:11:06.312 --> 00:11:08.147
- And god led me here and i moved over there.
- 00:11:08.147 --> 00:11:10.916
- I had no idea what was going on.
- 00:11:10.916 --> 00:11:13.085
- That's true of every single one of us.
- 00:11:13.085 --> 00:11:15.154
- With a little introspection, with a little backward glance.
- 00:11:15.154 --> 00:11:18.791
- And i like the thing that i learned from leslie
- 00:11:19.759 --> 00:11:22.361
- Weatherhead.
- 00:11:22.361 --> 00:11:23.496
- There is god's intentional will follow me.
- 00:11:23.496 --> 00:11:26.966
- What god intends for you and me to do in every
- 00:11:26.966 --> 00:11:30.236
- Decision in our life.
- 00:11:30.236 --> 00:11:31.837
- But we don't always do that.
- 00:11:31.837 --> 00:11:34.006
- We mess up.
- 00:11:34.006 --> 00:11:34.774
- We're not perfect big news.
- 00:11:34.774 --> 00:11:36.842
- We're not perfect. big news.
- 00:11:36.842 --> 00:11:39.044
- Therefore, god's intentional will may be for this,
- 00:11:39.044 --> 00:11:42.381
- But we made some wrong choices and therefore
- 00:11:42.381 --> 00:11:45.217
- Now we operate in his circumstantial will.
- 00:11:45.217 --> 00:11:48.621
- Right?
- 00:11:48.821 --> 00:11:49.622
- But in that circumstantial will.
- 00:11:49.622 --> 00:11:51.557
- Guess what?
- 00:11:51.557 --> 00:11:52.458
- His ultimate will will be carried out.
- 00:11:52.458 --> 00:11:55.461
- Somebody said, well, i made a mistake and there's no hope.
- 00:11:56.595 --> 00:11:59.365
- No god did.
- 00:11:59.365 --> 00:12:00.766
- Jesus christ specializes is second
- 00:12:00.766 --> 00:12:04.937
- Chances, third chances as we go through.
- 00:12:04.937 --> 00:12:08.908
- So his intentional will will be carried
- 00:12:08.908 --> 00:12:12.545
- Out in our life as we walk and live in jesus christ.
- 00:12:12.545 --> 00:12:15.981
- But there is the hidden will of god,
- 00:12:15.981 --> 00:12:19.185
- And then there is the general will of god.
- 00:12:19.185 --> 00:12:22.788
- By the way, somebody's looking for god's will.
- 00:12:22.788 --> 00:12:25.424
- Do you climb a tree, look to heaven,
- 00:12:25.424 --> 00:12:27.426
- And try to conjure up some emotional feelings
- 00:12:27.426 --> 00:12:30.162
- Or some sign or symbol to find out his will.
- 00:12:30.162 --> 00:12:33.299
- We look for his will, guess where the first place to look.
- 00:12:33.299 --> 00:12:36.268
- God's will is found in his word.
- 00:12:37.002 --> 00:12:40.206
- It's right there for us.
- 00:12:40.739 --> 00:12:43.709
- Psalm 19 says, thy word is a lamp
- 00:12:43.709 --> 00:12:47.179
- Unto my feet, tells us why to walk right now.
- 00:12:47.179 --> 00:12:51.517
- And a light into our path
- 00:12:51.517 --> 00:12:53.752
- Tells us how to walk in the future.
- 00:12:53.752 --> 00:12:56.222
- So let's start with god's word.
- 00:12:56.222 --> 00:12:58.190
- Does that seem strange?
- 00:12:58.190 --> 00:12:59.491
- Anybody or peculiar anybody know?
- 00:12:59.491 --> 00:13:01.961
- It's where we start
- 00:13:01.961 --> 00:13:03.329
- When we determine
- 00:13:03.329 --> 00:13:04.330
- Every choice, every decision we make in life.
- 00:13:04.330 --> 00:13:06.932
- I'm not talking about where you go to safeway
- 00:13:06.932 --> 00:13:09.768
- Or kroger, by the way.
- 00:13:09.768 --> 00:13:10.903
- Don't get ridiculous and silly.
- 00:13:10.903 --> 00:13:12.738
- I see some
- 00:13:12.738 --> 00:13:13.873
- Super pious, whiny people that drop back into that.
- 00:13:13.873 --> 00:13:17.109
- Don't get me there.
- 00:13:17.109 --> 00:13:19.245
- But i'm
- 00:13:19.478 --> 00:13:20.312
- Saying about decision we make in life.
- 00:13:20.312 --> 00:13:22.848
- Let's start with the five basic things.
- 00:13:22.848 --> 00:13:27.052
- Five things we need to operate in our life
- 00:13:27.052 --> 00:13:29.655
- That the bible tells us is the will of god
- 00:13:29.655 --> 00:13:33.926
- For every single person on the planet.
- 00:13:33.926 --> 00:13:36.929
- Okay, so let's start there.
- 00:13:37.529 --> 00:13:40.232
- That is a general will of god for everybody.
- 00:13:40.232 --> 00:13:42.635
- Look at it is we be saved.
- 00:13:42.635 --> 00:13:45.571
- And i use the word so many times salvage restored
- 00:13:45.571 --> 00:13:49.308
- Through faith in jesus christ
- 00:13:49.308 --> 00:13:51.010
- For our repentance and receiving him.
- 00:13:51.010 --> 00:13:53.078
- We are saved.
- 00:13:53.078 --> 00:13:54.346
- We are saved, we're salvaged.
- 00:13:54.346 --> 00:13:56.882
- Number two, be filled with the spirit.
- 00:13:56.882 --> 00:13:59.618
- When we come to christ.
- 00:13:59.618 --> 00:14:00.786
- The spirit comes in our life, but we leak.
- 00:14:00.786 --> 00:14:03.322
- So there's a constant
- 00:14:03.322 --> 00:14:04.590
- Thing of saying, lord, i want to be available
- 00:14:04.590 --> 00:14:07.293
- For your filling.
- 00:14:07.293 --> 00:14:08.560
- Ephesians five.
- 00:14:08.560 --> 00:14:10.596
- And then we go down and the next thing up there
- 00:14:10.596 --> 00:14:12.631
- Be sanctified.
- 00:14:12.631 --> 00:14:14.333
- First thessalonians four three and basically said, that means
- 00:14:14.333 --> 00:14:17.970
- We are growing up and becoming increasingly pure.
- 00:14:17.970 --> 00:14:22.675
- Anybody like the word pure?
- 00:14:23.275 --> 00:14:25.210
- That's that's a part of growing up in christ.
- 00:14:26.145 --> 00:14:28.681
- We get pure, our motives get right,
- 00:14:28.681 --> 00:14:31.116
- Our background is we.
- 00:14:31.116 --> 00:14:32.618
- That's being sanctified, that's growing up in our faith.
- 00:14:32.618 --> 00:14:36.288
- Have you ever tried to read
- 00:14:36.889 --> 00:14:38.757
- A historical novel out of order?
- 00:14:38.757 --> 00:14:41.694
- It would be hard, if not impossible, to understand.
- 00:14:41.694 --> 00:14:44.463
- The plot would.
- 00:14:44.463 --> 00:14:46.031
- And yet we read have studied the bible in much the same way.
- 00:14:46.031 --> 00:14:49.735
- Like a novel, the bible tells a story
- 00:14:49.735 --> 00:14:52.071
- With the beginning of middle and end,
- 00:14:52.071 --> 00:14:54.573
- And when you read in chronological order,
- 00:14:54.573 --> 00:14:56.775
- You will see history unfold in a new
- 00:14:56.775 --> 00:14:59.244
- And understandable and memorable way.
- 00:14:59.244 --> 00:15:02.381

- Walk.
- 00:15:34.913 --> 00:15:39.585
- The next thing is, the will
- 00:15:40.185 --> 00:15:41.320
- Of god would be serving we serve.
- 00:15:41.320 --> 00:15:45.357
- Ladies and gentlemen, we have a function, an office
- 00:15:45.357 --> 00:15:48.494
- For everybody here.
- 00:15:48.494 --> 00:15:49.928
- No matter what your state of life, where you are sick.
- 00:15:49.928 --> 00:15:52.664
- Well doesn't matter.
- 00:15:52.664 --> 00:15:53.999
- We have something everybody here can do.
- 00:15:53.999 --> 00:15:57.169
- We all have certain gifts.
- 00:15:57.736 --> 00:15:59.338
- Put them to work.
- 00:15:59.338 --> 00:16:00.205
- They can be holding the door.
- 00:16:00.205 --> 00:16:02.141
- They can be cutting.
- 00:16:02.141 --> 00:16:03.008
- It's a zillion things out there.
- 00:16:03.008 --> 00:16:05.210
- Just stand up, look around.
- 00:16:05.210 --> 00:16:06.745
- Find a place where you can serve.
- 00:16:06.745 --> 00:16:08.747
- Now we have people
- 00:16:08.747 --> 00:16:09.948
- All the time who come and says, i want to sing of solo.
- 00:16:09.948 --> 00:16:13.819
- Well, we'll try you out if you can sing.
- 00:16:13.819 --> 00:16:16.889
- But if you can't, guess what?
- 00:16:16.889 --> 00:16:18.123
- That's not your gift.
- 00:16:18.123 --> 00:16:20.459
- And i don't decide that.
- 00:16:20.459 --> 00:16:22.928
- God decides that by the affirmation of our gifts.
- 00:16:22.928 --> 00:16:26.065
- So find a place you can share with whatever it is we are.
- 00:16:26.065 --> 00:16:29.635
- If we are seeking
- 00:16:29.635 --> 00:16:30.869
- The will of god would be using, we have to be serving.
- 00:16:30.869 --> 00:16:34.640
- Next thing is look, be suffering.
- 00:16:34.640 --> 00:16:36.875
- Oh my goodness, i have got to suffer.
- 00:16:36.875 --> 00:16:39.812
- Yes. let me tell you about that suffering.
- 00:16:39.812 --> 00:16:42.481
- There's a painting
- 00:16:42.915 --> 00:16:44.650
- Called the straight and the narrow.
- 00:16:44.650 --> 00:16:47.753
- Remember jesus said,
- 00:16:48.220 --> 00:16:49.288
- There's a narrow way that leads to heaven.
- 00:16:49.288 --> 00:16:52.825
- There's a roadway that leads to hell.
- 00:16:52.825 --> 00:16:55.461
- There's a painting,
- 00:16:55.461 --> 00:16:56.762
- Famous painting, and it pictures a mountain.
- 00:16:56.762 --> 00:17:00.165
- And there's a few people on that mountain
- 00:17:00.165 --> 00:17:02.935
- Struggling, climbing, trying to reach the city of god.
- 00:17:02.935 --> 00:17:06.205
- Oh, they're having a tough time.
- 00:17:06.205 --> 00:17:08.107
- Then the same picture.
- 00:17:08.107 --> 00:17:09.241
- There's a river
- 00:17:09.241 --> 00:17:10.576
- That's flowing, and there are people
- 00:17:10.576 --> 00:17:12.377
- All in that river having a great time.
- 00:17:12.377 --> 00:17:14.746
- And the river is flowing, but
- 00:17:14.746 --> 00:17:15.981
- You could see in the foreground those are in the broadway.
- 00:17:15.981 --> 00:17:19.618
- They're about to go over
- 00:17:19.618 --> 00:17:20.752
- A cliff and to destruction and be killed
- 00:17:20.752 --> 00:17:23.522
- Down on the rocks below.
- 00:17:23.522 --> 00:17:24.723
- But they're just having a big time.
- 00:17:24.723 --> 00:17:26.492
- This group is climbing that mountain and struggling.
- 00:17:26.492 --> 00:17:29.428
- You said, boy, that's a good picture. no, it's not.
- 00:17:29.428 --> 00:17:32.064
- No, it's not where it's christians.
- 00:17:32.831 --> 00:17:35.200
- It's not that we're lonely
- 00:17:35.200 --> 00:17:37.336
- Climbing up a mountain trying to get to the city of god.
- 00:17:37.336 --> 00:17:40.239
- But as christians,
- 00:17:40.672 --> 00:17:42.307
- Here is the broadway where everybody is in that river.
- 00:17:42.307 --> 00:17:45.677
- But we're in the river.
- 00:17:45.677 --> 00:17:47.045
- The only difference is we're swimming upstream.
- 00:17:47.045 --> 00:17:50.115
- And when you swim upstream, you bump into people.
- 00:17:50.115 --> 00:17:53.252
- And you'll be sure if you walk with jesus christ in the 21st
- 00:17:53.252 --> 00:17:57.289
- Century, there's going to be some suffering.
- 00:17:57.289 --> 00:18:00.559
- There's going to be some suffering.
- 00:18:01.326 --> 00:18:03.428
- So that's the picture.
- 00:18:03.428 --> 00:18:04.630
- So here there are five things not
- 00:18:04.630 --> 00:18:08.100
- Operating perfectly in our life that we're committed to.
- 00:18:08.100 --> 00:18:11.370
- We understand that's the will of god.
- 00:18:11.370 --> 00:18:14.506
- That's not too complicated, is it?
- 00:18:14.506 --> 00:18:15.974
- I mean, there they are.
- 00:18:15.974 --> 00:18:17.476
- What's god's will for my life about. oh, no.
- 00:18:17.476 --> 00:18:19.745
- Start off of those five.
- 00:18:19.745 --> 00:18:22.414
- If these five things are operating and we're growing
- 00:18:22.414 --> 00:18:24.983
- And the holy spirit is leading in your life and my life,
- 00:18:24.983 --> 00:18:27.986
- Guess what?
- 00:18:27.986 --> 00:18:28.854
- The will of god is in any situation.
- 00:18:28.854 --> 00:18:31.190
- Trust the lord with all your heart.
- 00:18:31.990 --> 00:18:34.226
- Five things.
- 00:18:34.226 --> 00:18:35.794
- Lean not upon your own understanding.
- 00:18:35.794 --> 00:18:38.897
- In all thy ways acknowledge him.
- 00:18:39.598 --> 00:18:41.934
- The operative principle, these five things,
- 00:18:41.934 --> 00:18:44.002
- And yes, what he will direct your life.
- 00:18:44.002 --> 00:18:46.471
- And then it becomes in your decision,
- 00:18:46.471 --> 00:18:49.408
- Master.
- 00:18:49.641 --> 00:18:52.411
- Lord jesus christ, mission
- 00:18:52.411 --> 00:18:54.813
- You're calling your vocation your make, your make.
- 00:18:54.813 --> 00:18:59.318
- And i see this so many times, people, it's like that girl
- 00:18:59.318 --> 00:19:03.155
- That was dating six guys named william.
- 00:19:03.155 --> 00:19:07.226
- You know what?
- 00:19:07.559 --> 00:19:08.527
- She was a bill collector or bill collector.
- 00:19:08.527 --> 00:19:11.997
- So a lot of times,
- 00:19:12.431 --> 00:19:13.298
- I don't know, part of the marriage,
- 00:19:13.298 --> 00:19:14.366
- This order to marry, this one, to go there,
- 00:19:14.366 --> 00:19:16.335
- Let me tell you something.
- 00:19:16.335 --> 00:19:17.436
- When the holy spirit is all into her life,
- 00:19:17.436 --> 00:19:19.438
- All of a sudden the wisdom god comes in our life.
- 00:19:19.438 --> 00:19:21.840
- And then we begin to go back.
- 00:19:21.840 --> 00:19:23.742
- Now we've got the general well, haven't wait for everybody.
- 00:19:23.742 --> 00:19:26.878
- Now let's get that. why are you in? tell me.
- 00:19:26.878 --> 00:19:28.880
- When not i should move
- 00:19:28.880 --> 00:19:30.582
- Or when i build a house or rent or whatnot.
- 00:19:30.582 --> 00:19:33.051
- And all of you. let me tell you how that works.
- 00:19:33.051 --> 00:19:35.887
- Matthew.
- 00:19:36.154 --> 00:19:36.855
- Chapter seven.
- 00:19:36.855 --> 00:19:38.624
- What does jesus say that we do?
- 00:19:38.624 --> 00:19:41.593
- He says simply. ask
- 00:19:42.060 --> 00:19:45.097
- You. receive, seek
- 00:19:45.097 --> 00:19:47.966
- And you will find.
- 00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:49.534
- Knock and it will be open to you.
- 00:19:49.534 --> 00:19:51.803
- That's in our praying.
- 00:19:51.803 --> 00:19:53.105
- We ask, we say, lord, i know the blank check is there.
- 00:19:53.105 --> 00:19:57.009
- I know i can leave, but i want to ask you for
- 00:19:57.009 --> 00:19:59.278
- Your leadership and guidance.
- 00:19:59.278 --> 00:20:00.679
- And when making a big time decision, take a time out.
- 00:20:00.679 --> 00:20:04.316
- Sit down.
- 00:20:04.316 --> 00:20:05.584
- Listen to god.
- 00:20:05.584 --> 00:20:09.688
- Ask god and wait.
- 00:20:08.520 --> 00:20:14.393
- And then you see.
- 00:20:14.826 --> 00:20:15.794
- What does that mean?
- 00:20:15.794 --> 00:20:16.995
- You seek information,
- 00:20:16.995 --> 00:20:18.864
- You go to godly people, you get counsel.
- 00:20:18.864 --> 00:20:21.300
- And that's when you might make those lists
- 00:20:21.300 --> 00:20:24.636
- And you're seeking information about it.
- 00:20:24.636 --> 00:20:27.873
- And then finally you knock and a door may open.
- 00:20:27.873 --> 00:20:31.710
- The door may close.
- 00:20:31.710 --> 00:20:32.511
- By the way,
- 00:20:32.511 --> 00:20:33.745
- Just because there's an open door doesn't mean we walk in.
- 00:20:33.745 --> 00:20:35.914
- And that's god's will.
- 00:20:35.914 --> 00:20:37.182
- Oh, this door open for me.
- 00:20:37.182 --> 00:20:39.051
- I was in seminary.
- 00:20:39.051 --> 00:20:40.352
- I had a professor, virgil murphy, on my first semester.
- 00:20:40.352 --> 00:20:43.588
- He told me, humble eddie, that's pretty.
- 00:20:43.588 --> 00:20:46.291
- You can tell he failed in his task.
- 00:20:46.291 --> 00:20:48.160
- But anyway, he told me humble eddie's.
- 00:20:48.160 --> 00:20:51.363
- And he was a young man.
- 00:20:51.363 --> 00:20:52.464
- And after class one day, we had a large class,
- 00:20:52.464 --> 00:20:55.267
- And he came to me.
- 00:20:55.701 --> 00:20:56.568
- He said, you know, i i've watched you
- 00:20:56.568 --> 00:20:58.370
- And i think
- 00:20:58.370 --> 00:20:58.870
- Maybe
- 00:20:58.870 --> 00:20:59.705
- You ought to go with my family and i
- 00:20:59.705 --> 00:21:01.473
- Because this is the last
- 00:21:01.473 --> 00:21:02.708
- Semester i'm going to teach at seminary.
- 00:21:02.708 --> 00:21:04.743
- We're going to italy as a missionary.
- 00:21:04.743 --> 00:21:07.446
- And i'd love for you to learn italian
- 00:21:07.446 --> 00:21:09.314
- With our family and go with us.
- 00:21:09.314 --> 00:21:10.782
- I think you'd really be effective.
- 00:21:10.782 --> 00:21:13.485
- Well,
- 00:21:13.719 --> 00:21:15.320
- Man, that's floored me.
- 00:21:15.320 --> 00:21:18.123
- And i remember what my dad said when i told him
- 00:21:18.123 --> 00:21:20.359
- I was called by god to work in the church,
- 00:21:20.359 --> 00:21:23.161
- Which was weird to all of my family.
- 00:21:23.161 --> 00:21:25.497
- I can assure you of that.
- 00:21:25.497 --> 00:21:27.966
- And my dad said, you're still in your life away.
- 00:21:27.966 --> 00:21:30.669
- Nobody's lazier than preachers.
- 00:21:30.669 --> 00:21:33.138
- My dad believe that.
- 00:21:33.138 --> 00:21:35.006
- And now, after a while in this ministry,
- 00:21:35.006 --> 00:21:37.175
- I almost agree with him. two
- 00:21:37.175 --> 00:21:39.945
- But anyway, he said, look.
- 00:21:39.945 --> 00:21:41.346
- And then he said, of all things my mom said, don't
- 00:21:41.346 --> 00:21:44.182
- Go to one of those foreign mission fields.
- 00:21:44.182 --> 00:21:47.085
- Now here i was thinking the will of god was something
- 00:21:47.085 --> 00:21:50.722
- That i didn't know.
- 00:21:50.722 --> 00:21:51.690
- By the way, the will of god in the most
- 00:21:51.690 --> 00:21:53.358
- Isn't always the most difficult thing to do.
- 00:21:53.358 --> 00:21:55.293
- Oh, it must be the will of god,
- 00:21:55.293 --> 00:21:57.195
- Because i've got a sacrifice here.
- 00:21:57.195 --> 00:21:59.164
- No no no no, an open door doesn't mean often.
- 00:21:59.164 --> 00:22:02.501
- The closed door to me.
- 00:22:02.501 --> 00:22:03.502
- An opportunity,
- 00:22:03.502 --> 00:22:05.103
- Because we have these things operative in our life
- 00:22:05.103 --> 00:22:07.606
- And god gives us wisdom to make decisions.
- 00:22:07.606 --> 00:22:10.609
- And i waited till i finished seminary.
- 00:22:10.609 --> 00:22:12.377
- I felt no leadership, but i was willing.
- 00:22:12.377 --> 00:22:15.881
- I was ready.
- 00:22:16.214 --> 00:22:17.849
- I'll go to bangladesh today if i get a clear indication.
- 00:22:17.849 --> 00:22:20.552
- It would be a skinny minute like that.
- 00:22:20.552 --> 00:22:23.221
- So at the bottom line is the will of god.
- 00:22:23.221 --> 00:22:25.490
- When these things are operating in your life.
- 00:22:25.490 --> 00:22:27.292
- In my life,
- 00:22:27.292 --> 00:22:28.460
- He gives us his wisdom and we begin to make good choices.
- 00:22:28.460 --> 00:22:31.630
- Because now remember our verse,
- 00:22:31.630 --> 00:22:33.632
- The holy spirit has picked us up.
- 00:22:33.632 --> 00:22:36.368
- And when we pray and seek information,
- 00:22:37.202 --> 00:22:39.438
- The holy spirit takes the right prayer
- 00:22:39.438 --> 00:22:42.674
- To jesus christ at the right hand of god.
- 00:22:42.674 --> 00:22:45.377
- And he, in terms of the father.
- 00:22:45.377 --> 00:22:47.412
- And that kind of praying is answered every single time.
- 00:22:47.412 --> 00:22:51.750
- Sometimes the answer is no,
- 00:22:51.750 --> 00:22:54.753
- Sometimes it is yes, sometimes it is.
- 00:22:54.753 --> 00:22:58.523
- Maybe. sometimes it is. wait.
- 00:22:58.523 --> 00:23:01.526
- But it's always answered.
- 00:23:01.526 --> 00:23:03.562
- This is how we know the will of god.
- 00:23:03.562 --> 00:23:06.331
- The holy spirit picks us up.
- 00:23:06.331 --> 00:23:08.733
- Do y'all remember?
- 00:23:09.167 --> 00:23:11.903
- Powerful, powerful
- 00:23:11.903 --> 00:23:13.071
- Story of a family?
- 00:23:13.071 --> 00:23:16.074
- The father
- 00:23:16.374 --> 00:23:18.343
- And the son were so very close.
- 00:23:18.343 --> 00:23:21.713
- The father was named dick and the son was named rick.
- 00:23:22.814 --> 00:23:26.284
- And rick was born with a very rare form of cerebral palsy.
- 00:23:26.284 --> 00:23:30.555
- The son could not use his arms.
- 00:23:30.555 --> 00:23:33.492
- He could not speak,
- 00:23:33.492 --> 00:23:35.527
- But through a computer, and he was able to communicate.
- 00:23:35.527 --> 00:23:38.597
- And the son was in high school
- 00:23:39.197 --> 00:23:42.067
- And another classmate was in an accident
- 00:23:42.067 --> 00:23:45.403
- And was now paralyzed from the waist down.
- 00:23:45.403 --> 00:23:48.707
- And so the class decided
- 00:23:48.707 --> 00:23:51.243
- That they would go and they would run a ten k,
- 00:23:51.243 --> 00:23:55.413
- Get money to follow them, and give money to this family
- 00:23:55.413 --> 00:23:59.017
- That now had this son that was now paralyzed.
- 00:23:59.017 --> 00:24:02.053
- And in that class was rick
- 00:24:02.621 --> 00:24:05.357
- With cerebral palsy.
- 00:24:05.824 --> 00:24:07.058
- And he went home and told his dad,
- 00:24:07.058 --> 00:24:09.895
- You know, he wish he could run in that race.
- 00:24:10.795 --> 00:24:13.331
- And he'd ask the teacher, and the teacher said
- 00:24:13.331 --> 00:24:16.434
- The dad could run on his behalf
- 00:24:16.434 --> 00:24:20.138
- If he would.
- 00:24:20.472 --> 00:24:21.373
- And so the father, dick, remains the way
- 00:24:21.373 --> 00:24:23.942
- To get on a cart and to run
- 00:24:23.942 --> 00:24:26.978
- With his son in the cart.
- 00:24:27.546 --> 00:24:30.148
- That ten k to raise funds
- 00:24:30.148 --> 00:24:33.618
- That begin a ministry for the father, dick
- 00:24:33.618 --> 00:24:36.855
- And the son, rick.
- 00:24:36.855 --> 00:24:39.791
- In the next couple of decades,
- 00:24:39.791 --> 00:24:42.761
- They ran in
- 00:24:42.761 --> 00:24:45.597
- 62 or 3 marathons.
- 00:24:45.597 --> 00:24:48.934
- The father taking care of the son, and they ran.
- 00:24:48.934 --> 00:24:52.671
- And over 155 or 6 triathlons, a triathlon.
- 00:24:52.671 --> 00:24:58.710
- You swim for almost three miles, you bike for almost over
- 00:24:58.710 --> 00:25:02.414
- 100 miles, and then you run a 26 mile race triathlon.
- 00:25:02.414 --> 00:25:07.185
- They did about 150 of 60 of those over a couple of decades.
- 00:25:07.185 --> 00:25:11.723
- And the son said.
- 00:25:12.157 --> 00:25:15.427
- Dad with
- 00:25:15.694 --> 00:25:16.962
- His computer, he couldn't talk
- 00:25:16.962 --> 00:25:20.065
- When we're running together,
- 00:25:20.065 --> 00:25:23.702
- I feel that i don't have
- 00:25:24.235 --> 00:25:27.038
- A single disability.
- 00:25:27.038 --> 00:25:30.275
- Thank you for spending time
- 00:25:30.875 --> 00:25:32.711
- With me today on the winning walk.
- 00:25:32.711 --> 00:25:35.547
- It is my prayer that god's word has encouraged
- 00:25:35.547 --> 00:25:38.416
- Your heart and strengthened your faith in him.
- 00:25:38.416 --> 00:25:41.252
- And as you go into the days ahead,
- 00:25:41.987 --> 00:25:43.521
- Remember that you don't walk alone.
- 00:25:43.521 --> 00:25:46.424
- Somebody says, i feel so lonely in jesus christ.
- 00:25:46.424 --> 00:25:51.029
- We never feel god's presence goes with us
- 00:25:51.029 --> 00:25:55.533
- And his word continues to guide your steps.
- 00:25:55.533 --> 00:25:58.536
- In my steps, no matter where you are
- 00:25:58.536 --> 00:26:00.872
- And what you're facing.
- 00:26:00.872 --> 00:26:02.674
- Take what you've heard today
- 00:26:02.674 --> 00:26:05.543
- And carry it with you from now all the way into the future.
- 00:26:05.543 --> 00:26:10.248
- And let it shape your thoughts and my thoughts
- 00:26:10.248 --> 00:26:12.684
- And your choices and my joys.
- 00:26:12.684 --> 00:26:15.453
- And remember, stay on this path of faith.
