1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:18,000 Out living your life. 2 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:41,000 When you read the book of first chronicles from chapter one through the eighth verse of chapter four, it is like reading a Hebrew telephone book. 3 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:47,000 It is the genealogy of the nation of Israel. 4 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:55,000 For the most part, it is a collection of begatts. 5 00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:04,000 From chapter one all the way to the eighth verse of chapter four, this person begat that person. 6 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,000 That person begat that person. 7 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:15,000 I would have read it, but I can't pronounce those names of this person who begat that person. 8 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:35,000 But when we come to J-Bez, we are confronted with a man whose life is an oasis in a dry and barren desert of begats. 9 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:43,000 It turns out that J-Bez was a giant among pygmies. 10 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:57,000 The compression of scripture truth within these limited verses of verse nine and ten is one of the great miracles that belong to the structure of God's word. 11 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:05,000 God can say so much in just a few words. 12 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:15,000 Unlike J-Bez, there are very few among us who rise above the crowd. 13 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:25,000 There are very few among us who leave an indelible mark on the world. 14 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:45,000 Ralph Waldo Emerson said, see how the masses of men worry themselves into nameless graves while hearing there a great unselfish soul forgets himself into immortality. 15 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:57,000 Wouldn't it be a tragedy, brothers and sisters, for your life to come down to no more than a few lines on a tombstone? 16 00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:07,000 If all that you are can be buried at Houston Memorial Gardens, your living has been in vain. 17 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:23,000 Sadly, few people leave an indelible mark on the world while even fewer people leave a mark on eternity. 18 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:28,000 If you don't hear anything else I said this morning, I want you to take this one thought with you. 19 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:35,000 If you think you're going to forget it, write it down or put it in your phone like the phone was ringing a minute ago when I was getting ready to preach. 20 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:40,000 Put this down in your palm pocket or whatever you have to write it on. 21 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,000 Take this thought away from this sermon. 22 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:53,000 Ten years after your death, will your life have mattered? 23 00:03:53,000 --> 00:04:02,000 Ten years after you're gone, will your life have made a difference? 24 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:11,000 J. Bears is a parenthesis in an endless sentence of begets. 25 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:24,000 U.S. Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey said, we have become a country that mistakes celebrity for significance. 26 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:30,000 And we mistake wealth for worth. 27 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:37,000 But we should never be satisfied to be like everybody else. 28 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:43,000 God has called each of us who are Christian and He has gifted us in wonderful ways. 29 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:50,000 And I don't mean being different in terms of one side of your head is purple and the other side is pink. 30 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:58,000 I don't mean different in having a piercing in your tongue or one pants leg cut off and the other long. 31 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:03,000 That's not different. That's weird. 32 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,000 You have borderline personality disorder. 33 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,000 If you're trying to stand out in the crowd to make yourself look like a fool. 34 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,000 I'm not talking about being a fool. 35 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:26,000 I'm talking about He has given us the means whereby we can stand out from the crowd and be different for His glory. 36 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:35,000 Henry Davis Thoreau in his reflections on Walden Pond said, if a man does not keep pace with his companions, 37 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:39,000 perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. 38 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:50,000 If so, let him step to the music he hears, whether it be measured near or far away. 39 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,000 Walk with me around the text. 40 00:05:52,000 --> 00:06:03,000 When we look at the life of J. Bears, we look first of all at a sorrowful problem. 41 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:10,000 His mother named him J. Bears because she bore him. 42 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:15,000 She gave birth to him in sorrow. 43 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:28,000 The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language Fourth Edition defines the name J. Bears to mean an underdog. 44 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:36,000 J. Bears is defined as one that is at a distinct disadvantage. 45 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:49,000 The name J. Bears biblically means pain, affliction, or he will cause pain. 46 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:59,000 But this morning J. Bears is telling and testimony that circumstances may appear to wreck our lives, 47 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:05,000 but God is not helpless among the broken pieces. 48 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:10,000 You don't have to be what people have named you. 49 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:21,000 God is able to take us like he finds us and transform us into what he wants us to be. 50 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:29,000 He turned Jacob the trickster into Israel, a prince with God. 51 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:35,000 He turned Simon into Peter, a rock on the day of Pentecost. 52 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:45,000 He turned persecuting Saul into praying Paul, who became the apostle to the Gentiles and wrote over half the New Testament. 53 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:57,000 It doesn't matter what they name you or what they call you, God sees in you what other people will never see in you. 54 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:07,000 Some of us who are students of history, black history no matter what Governor DeSantis says in Florida, 55 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:19,000 those of us who are students of black history know the brilliant story of a black woman named Wilmer Rudolph. 56 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:31,000 Wilmer Rudolph was born the 16th of 18 children in a poor family in middle Tennessee. 57 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:37,000 She weighed four pounds and one ounce at birth. 58 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:47,000 She contracted at the age of four, she contracted polio and lost the use of her left leg. 59 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:57,000 With polio, she developed a chronic pneumonia and scarlet fever. 60 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:05,000 Wilmer spent the bulk of her childhood in a wheelchair as a cripple. 61 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:11,000 Her mother was a domestic washing clothes and cooking in white people's houses, 62 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:19,000 and on her one day off a week, she spent the day bringing Wilmer to therapy. 63 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:31,000 And through sheer force of will and determination by her mother and by Wilmer herself, she regained the use of her left leg. 64 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:42,000 Wilmer Rudolph played high school basketball, setting a single season record for the most points scored. 65 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:49,000 She scored 803 points in 25 games. 66 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:56,000 In 1960, she represented the United States in the Rome Olympic Games 67 00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:03,000 and won gold medals in all three events in which she competed. 68 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:13,000 In both the 100 meter and the 200 meter dash, she finished three yards in front of her closest competition. 69 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:21,000 She tied the world record in the 100 meter and set a new Olympic record in the 200 meter 70 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:28,000 and in the 400 meter relay, she brought her team from behind to win the gold medal. 71 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:35,000 Where you come from, need not determine where you end up. 72 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:42,000 God is preparing you for what he has prepared for you. 73 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:51,000 He does not always put you in a classroom that looks like you're calling. 74 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,000 Somebody ought to help me preach it. 75 00:10:54,000 --> 00:11:02,000 Because a whole lot of us in here this morning didn't start out well, but look where the Lord has brought us from. 76 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:15,000 Look how many doors God has opened for us and people who thought we would never be anybody are looking up at us. 77 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:21,000 Where you start out does not mean that's where you will end up. 78 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,000 And brothers and sisters hear me. 79 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:33,000 Often what you have to go through next cannot be compared to what you've already overcome. 80 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:41,000 What you have to go through next cannot be compared to what you've already overcome. 81 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:45,000 God has already been good to you. 82 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:49,000 God has already provided for you. 83 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:53,000 God has already made a way for you. 84 00:11:53,000 --> 00:12:00,000 So whatever the devil has to come next, you can handle that because of what you've already overcome. 85 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:10,000 Greater is he that is in me than he that is in the world. 86 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:14,000 We are more than conquerors. 87 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,000 I wish I had a Bible read again. 88 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:23,000 Listen, listen, stop tripping over what's behind you. 89 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,000 Yesterday is a canceled check. 90 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,000 Tomorrow is a promissory note. 91 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:36,000 Today is cash in your hand and use what God has given you today. 92 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:45,000 And when you look back over your life, you can testify if it had not been. 93 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,000 Somebody ought to help me preach it. 94 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,000 It was not your education. 95 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,000 It was not your family background. 96 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,000 It was not your job or your career. 97 00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:10,000 It was the goodness, the grace and the mercy of God Almighty. 98 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:14,000 Steps of a good man. 99 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,000 I'm ordered by the Lord. 100 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:21,000 The Lord is my shop. 101 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,000 I shall not want. 102 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:28,000 Makes me lie down in green pastures. 103 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:32,000 Leads me beside steel water. 104 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,000 Restores my soul. 105 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:40,000 Leads me in paths of righteousness for his name sake. 106 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,000 Yeah? 107 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:49,000 Though I walk through the valley of the very shadow of death, 108 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:54,000 I fear no evil because God is with me. 109 00:13:54,000 --> 00:14:00,000 His rod, his staff, they comfort me. 110 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:06,000 He prepared a table before me in the presence of my enemies. 111 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:15,000 He anoints my head with oil so that my cup is just running over. 112 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,000 Shirley! 113 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:21,000 I wish I had some help right here. 114 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,000 Shirley! 115 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:35,000 Goodness and mercy is following me, chasing me all the days of my life. 116 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:42,000 When it's all over, I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. 117 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:48,000 But in the meantime, the Lord is my light and my salvation. 118 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,000 Whom shall I fear? 119 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:54,000 The Lord is the strength of my life. 120 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,000 Of whom shall I be afraid? 121 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,000 We're no wicked. 122 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:04,000 Even my enemies and my foes come upon me to eat up my flesh. 123 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:12,000 Just before they get to me, God tripped them. 124 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,000 Haven't got a witness? 125 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:21,000 They stumbled and they fell. 126 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:27,000 Though a host, go get your boys. 127 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:31,000 Though a host shouldn't camp against me. 128 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,000 In this will I be comforted. 129 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:38,000 One thing, have I decided of the Lord. 130 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,000 And that will I seek after. 131 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:45,000 That I may dwell in the house of God all the days of my life. 132 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:49,000 Here it is in the time of trouble. 133 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:53,000 I need somebody who's been in trouble. 134 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:56,000 I need somebody whose back has been up against the wall. 135 00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:13,000 I need somebody that God has delivered you from some mess you got yourself in. 136 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:24,000 What you have to go through cannot be compared to what you've already overcome. 137 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:29,000 You don't have to be what they name you. 138 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:34,000 You don't have to be what they call you. 139 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:39,000 Where you come from, doesn't have to determine where you're going. 140 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:46,000 If God befall, who can be against us? 141 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,000 I wish I had one or two more witnesses here. 142 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:58,000 The witnesses have come from backgrounds that say nothing in your background says you ought to be where you are right now. 143 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:04,000 There's nothing in how you were raised that says you ought to be blessed as you are right now. 144 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:18,000 As a matter of fact, you don't even know how blessed you are or how you got to be this blessed until you remember it was nobody but Jesus. 145 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,000 You ought to learn how to shout. 146 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,000 Stop, stop looking at everybody else do it. 147 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,000 Let me teach you how to shout. 148 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,000 Here is how you shout. 149 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:36,000 Have a good memory. 150 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:44,000 Because only people with a good memory know how to shout. 151 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:54,000 People who can look back and see where God has brought them from know how to shout. 152 00:17:54,000 --> 00:18:01,000 Hallelujah. 153 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:15,000 Thank you Jesus. 154 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:41,000 J.Bez is born in pain but he was more honorable than his brothers because the Bible says J.Bez prayed. 155 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:53,000 He was called on the God of Israel and he said oh that you would bless me indeed. 156 00:18:53,000 --> 00:19:00,000 Oh that's prayer language. 157 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:05,000 Oh. 158 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:11,000 You haven't prayed until your back has been up against the wall. 159 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:16,000 You haven't prayed until you've been down to your last dime. 160 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:24,000 You haven't prayed until your situation has gotten so bad that if the Lord don't show up it's all over for you. 161 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:31,000 And when God comes through your word it's all over. 162 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:35,000 I need somebody who ain't playing with me this morning. 163 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:48,000 You know what it means to say oh and God will show up in the midst of your oh. 164 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:54,000 Oh that you would bless me. 165 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,000 Not just bless me. 166 00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:01,000 Bless me indeed. 167 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:08,000 In large my territory. 168 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:12,000 Put your hand on me. 169 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:19,000 So no evil can harm me. 170 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:29,000 And God granted his request. 171 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,000 My grandmother said it like this. 172 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:40,000 If you pray and pray right. 173 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:48,000 God hears and answers prayer. 174 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:58,000 The prayer of J. Bears we move now from this sorrowful problem to a simple prayer. 175 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:08,000 The prayer of J. Bears is profoundly simple but simply profound. 176 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:15,000 George Williams says it may be expressed by just four words. 177 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:26,000 He asked God for grace, for growth, for guidance, and for guardianship. 178 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:31,000 He asked God brothers and sisters for two things. 179 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:41,000 J. Bears prayer to God was give me your best and your blessing. 180 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:46,000 Whoever told you that praying for yourself was wrong. 181 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:50,000 Lied to you. 182 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:57,000 There's nothing wrong with wanting the best God has for you. 183 00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:07,000 As long as God's best for you is for his glory. 184 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:13,000 Nothing is wrong with praying for prosperity. 185 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:19,000 Nothing is wrong with asking God to bless you with a plenty. 186 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:25,000 Because our God is a God of a plenty. 187 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:35,000 Why would you come to a big God with a small request? 188 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:44,000 When I was a boy, growing up in my mom and dad's house, 189 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:49,000 I could tell when my dad didn't have any money. 190 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,000 Johnnie could go get anything from him. 191 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,000 Whatever Johnnie asked him, he would give him. 192 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:58,000 We would put Johnnie up to go and ask my dad for money. 193 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,000 Because he would never tell Johnnie no. 194 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:06,000 Johnnie was his youngest and so we would put Johnnie up to go get us a quarter. 195 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,000 Because we wanted to go to the swimming pool. 196 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,000 And you could get in the pool for a dime. 197 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:17,000 And then you had some money for some now and later. 198 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:20,000 And some Mary James. 199 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,000 And a red soda water. 200 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:27,000 With a nickel left over. 201 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,000 But I could tell when my daddy didn't have any money. 202 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:33,000 Because I would go to him and ask him for some money. 203 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:41,000 And he said, son, I don't have anything small. 204 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:45,000 Whenever he said I don't have anything small. 205 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:51,000 I went away thinking my daddy had big money. 206 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,000 But that meant he didn't have any money. 207 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,000 Because he didn't have anything small. 208 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:01,000 I would go to God in prayer. 209 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:06,000 God never turns me away by talking about I don't have anything small. 210 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,000 The cattle on a thousand hills. 211 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,000 I wish I had a Bible reading. 212 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,000 The earth is the Lord's. 213 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,000 The fullness thereof. 214 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,000 The world and they that dwell therein. 215 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,000 The silver is his. 216 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,000 The gold is his. 217 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,000 Everything belongs to God. 218 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:29,000 Why would I go to a God who owns everything. 219 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:39,000 And act like I'm going to my daddy who say I ain't got nothing small. 220 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:44,000 But here is the catch. 221 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,000 It comes with a caveat. 222 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,000 Stop praying for God's best. 223 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:54,000 Stop looking for God to give you the best that he has. 224 00:24:54,000 --> 00:25:01,000 If you don't do what he says in Malachi 3 and 10. 225 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:06,000 You see how I hit you with a uppercut right there. 226 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,000 You wasn't looking for that. 227 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,000 I'll sucker punch you with that. 228 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:16,000 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse. 229 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,000 I wish I had a witness. 230 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:22,000 That there may be meat in my house. 231 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,000 I wish I had a witness. 232 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,000 Said the Lord of hosts. 233 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:34,000 And see if I will not open for you the windows of heaven. 234 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:39,000 And pour out blessings that you will not even have room enough to receive. 235 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:44,000 Now I hear some of you saying well I ain't paying no tithes and I'm being blessed. 236 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,000 Think of how blessed you'd be if you paid. 237 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:52,000 If God is blessing you and you ain't paying. 238 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:56,000 Imagine how big your blessings would be if you did what God said. 239 00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:09,000 God is giving you what's good but he's not giving you his best because you're not listening to his word. 240 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:14,000 In praying for God to enlarge his territory. 241 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:22,000 Jebez is asking God to have more influence in the world. 242 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:31,000 Jebez wants to be delivered from blind to sanctified ambition. 243 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:38,000 Nothing is wrong with prosperity if it's sanctified. 244 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:44,000 Nothing is wrong with asking God for power if it's sanctified. 245 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:51,000 Nothing is wrong with asking God for protection if it's sanctified. 246 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:59,000 He said I want you to enlarge my territory, enlarge my borders, enlarge my coast. 247 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:06,000 In other words, take me out of my comfort zone. 248 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:15,000 All of us are comfortable in our comfort zone. 249 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:23,000 For some years now my family has been trying to get me to go on a cruise. 250 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:31,000 That is not going to happen. 251 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:38,000 They've been trying to convince me that when you're on that big ship, when you're on that big boat, you don't know you're on the water. 252 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:42,000 It's so nice you don't even know you're on the cruise. 253 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:47,000 I said can I drive home? 254 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,000 They said no fool. 255 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:53,000 I said well I know I'm on the boat. 256 00:27:53,000 --> 00:28:00,000 Because if I can't see land, if I can't see a H-E-B, 257 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:05,000 if I can't see a bank, I know I'm on a ship. 258 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:12,000 And so I don't care anything about a cruise because that would take me completely out of my comfort zone. 259 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:26,000 And if by chance they would drug me and put me on a ship, I would have to stay under the influence of some serious heroin. 260 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:32,000 Because I hate beaches, I hate water, I hate boats. 261 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:36,000 That's just not me. That's not who I am. 262 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,000 I would never be comfortable in that. 263 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:50,000 If heaven is on a ship, I'm going to have to wave to y'all from a distance. 264 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:56,000 Because I am most uncomfortable in that setting. 265 00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:01,000 I'm not going anybody who wants to go, God bless you, have a good time, bring this up and back. 266 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:05,000 But I'm not going to go there because that's out of my comfort zone. 267 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:09,000 And that's okay, they ain't got nothing to do with heaven or hell. 268 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,000 That's just I'm out of my comfort zone. 269 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:17,000 But now when it comes to spiritual comfort zones, 270 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:23,000 God is calling us to move beyond what we do on Sunday morning. 271 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:27,000 And move beyond just the people we love. 272 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:32,000 And move beyond just the people who are in our concentric circles of concern. 273 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:38,000 Because somebody does not think the way we think or do things the way we do things, 274 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:44,000 does not mean that we have to hate them and they become an enemy, they are just different from us. 275 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:49,000 And different does not mean hell bound, it just means different. 276 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,000 Because all of us in here are different. 277 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:57,000 The only thing that makes us the same is the cross. 278 00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:01,000 Because everybody in here needs the same mercy. 279 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,000 We need the same grace. 280 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,000 We need the same Jesus. 281 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,000 We need the same salvation. 282 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:13,000 But God is calling you to get out of your comfort zone of just loving Baptist people. 283 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:19,000 Of just loving straight people. 284 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:24,000 Of just loving educated people. 285 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:28,000 Or just loving pretty people. 286 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:32,000 Or just loving people that we were raised with. 287 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,000 Or people who are in our Sunday school class. 288 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,000 Or people we go to church with. 289 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:40,000 God is calling us to love that drug addicted man on the street. 290 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,000 God is calling us to embrace that woman who's had an abortion. 291 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:51,000 God is calling us to love that man or that woman who is caught in this gay situation. 292 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:56,000 God is calling us to love members of our family who have mistreated us. 293 00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:00,000 God is calling us to even love people we are divorced from. 294 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:04,000 God is calling us to be kind to people who have mistreated us. 295 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:11,000 I'm not saying that life is easy to do because I'm still working on some stuff. 296 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:21,000 And if you would be honest, there's some of us in here also who are still working on trying to love somebody who has mistreated us. 297 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,000 I wish I had a witness here. 298 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,000 I wish I had an honest Christian in here who's saying, 299 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:29,000 Reverend I know what you're saying is true but I'm struggling with that. 300 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,000 Well God can help you in your struggle. 301 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:42,000 The only way God can help you in your struggle is if you admit you're struggling. 302 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:47,000 Don't you hate to be around them Christians who got it all together? 303 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:51,000 They answer their phone, praise the Lord. 304 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:54,000 They're too blessed to be stressed. 305 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,000 And they're blessed and highly favored. 306 00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:03,000 And you can't talk to them without them saying, give them the honor of God who's the head of my life. 307 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,000 They're so spiritual. 308 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:10,000 There are some of us in here who hate that spiritual. 309 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:13,000 And we are struggling with some things. 310 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:16,000 And thank God for that struggle. 311 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:21,000 Because it helps us to know that unless the Holy Spirit enables me, 312 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:26,000 unless the spirit of God takes my hand and pushes us out there, 313 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:29,000 I will not be able to do what God wants me to do. 314 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:35,000 But if I belong to God, then I've got to bring myself under the Lordship of Jesus Christ. 315 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:39,000 And the Lordship of Jesus Christ has nothing to do with what I want, 316 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:44,000 but with what God commands. 317 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,000 Love your enemies. 318 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:51,000 Pray for them that despitefully use you. 319 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,000 Do good to them that curse you. 320 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,000 That's not easy to do. 321 00:32:55,000 --> 00:33:04,000 And if you are a serious Christian, you admit that you have a serious struggle. 322 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,000 That's why J. Bay is praying. 323 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:12,000 Enlarge my circle of influence. 324 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:18,000 And then he asked the Lord to to keep your hands on me. 325 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:22,000 Because away from your protecting presence, 326 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:26,000 I'm subject to be a fool. 327 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:32,000 Out from under your hand, I would be out of control. 328 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,000 And then he said, Lord, when you put your hands on me, 329 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:41,000 I know then that you can keep me from evil. 330 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:47,000 All the evil people are not in prison. 331 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:51,000 There are some evil people at the church. 332 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:57,000 That's a mean, vindictive, low down people who come to church. 333 00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:01,000 And so just because they look pious on Sunday morning, 334 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:07,000 you don't know what's in their heart, but God knows the heart. 335 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,000 Man looks at the outward appearance. 336 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,000 Have I got a witness here? 337 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:23,000 God can see a smile on your face and a frown in your heart. 338 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:26,000 That's why you got to ask God to keep you from evil. 339 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:30,000 Because you don't know who's plotting against you. 340 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:37,000 The very folk who are up close to you may be the ones who are trying to do you in. 341 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,000 But God will keep you. 342 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,000 And God will show you some things. 343 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:46,000 But they think that they're getting over on you. 344 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:49,000 They think that they're making a fool out of you. 345 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:56,000 But God will reveal some things that you would not have known if God did not show you. 346 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:59,000 I wish I had a witness here. 347 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,000 He asked God to enlarge his territory. 348 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:04,000 He asked God to put his hands on him. 349 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:08,000 And then he asked God to keep me from evil. 350 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:14,000 No weapon formed against me. 351 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:18,000 God, don't let it prosper. 352 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:23,000 If they throw it at me, don't let it reach me. 353 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:27,000 If they're talking about me, don't let me hear it. 354 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:33,000 If they're trying to destroy me, don't let me pay attention to it. 355 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:39,000 If they're fooling me and lying to me, don't let it affect my personality. 356 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:44,000 If they're trying to harm me, put a fence around me. 357 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,000 I wish I had somebody to help me. 358 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:52,000 If they're trying to break me, I want you to help me to build myself up by your holy power. 359 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:57,000 If they're trying to push me down, I want you to be behind me, propping me up. 360 00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:05,000 God will be a fence around me. 361 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:14,000 And the Bible says, God granted his request. 362 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:22,000 We move from this simple prayer of J.B.I. to a spiritual privilege. 363 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:29,000 God honors prayers that honor him. 364 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:32,000 Let me run it by you one more time. 365 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:38,000 God honors prayers that honor him. 366 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:45,000 Matthew 7 and verse 7 says, Ask, and it shall be given. 367 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:49,000 Seek, and you shall find. 368 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:54,000 Rock, and it shall be opened under you. 369 00:36:54,000 --> 00:37:01,000 Jeremiah 33 and 3 says, Call unto me, and I will answer thee. 370 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:08,000 And show thee great and mighty things which thou knowest not. 371 00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:14,000 Philippians 4, 6, and 7 says, Be anxious for nothing. 372 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:19,000 Everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving. 373 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:24,000 Let your requests be made known under God. 374 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:42,000 And the peace of God that surpasses all understanding shall keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 375 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,000 I'm through now. 376 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:47,000 I'm running out of air. 377 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:51,000 I can't holler like this young preacher hollered last Sunday. 378 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:54,000 I'm running out of steam right here. 379 00:37:54,000 --> 00:38:02,000 So let me cut across the field and tell you what prayer will do. 380 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:13,000 Last night I was watching my favorite movie of all times, The Godfather. 381 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:17,000 I love Michael Corleone. 382 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,000 I love Don Corleone. 383 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,000 The Godfather is my favorite movie. 384 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,000 I've seen it 6 million times. 385 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:26,000 It's my favorite movie of all time. 386 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:27,000 It was not on HBO. 387 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:28,000 It was not on CineMax. 388 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,000 It was not on Showtime. 389 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:35,000 So I had to get it on demand. 390 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:38,000 And I'm not tech savvy. 391 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:45,000 So I had to call somebody to find out how to get it on demand and how to work the remote and all of that. 392 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:49,000 Because that's not a game that's out of my comfort zone. 393 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:53,000 Some of y'all old enough to remember a VCR? 394 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:57,000 I never could program a VCR. 395 00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:02,000 And then when they start recording shows on television, I'm not good with that kind of stuff. 396 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,000 I'm not good with mechanical stuff. 397 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,000 So I had to call to ask how to get it on demand. 398 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,000 I got it on demand. 399 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,000 $3.99 for two days. 400 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:12,000 The Godfather. 401 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:17,000 I'm gonna watch it again today. 402 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:23,000 But when I was watching the movie, it started stopping. 403 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:30,000 It started slowing down and the screen would freeze. 404 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:42,000 And I couldn't unravel what that was about until it came on the television that my TV was buffering. 405 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:48,000 And again, I don't know what buffering means. 406 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:56,000 I had to call somebody who got more sense than me who could tell me what buffering means. 407 00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:07,000 Buffering means your internet modem is too slow for the movie. 408 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:17,000 And the movie is playing, but you don't have enough internet support to get the movie all at one time. 409 00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:27,000 And so your television freezes so that the movie can catch up with your internet connection. 410 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:29,000 It's buffering. 411 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:35,000 The movie freezes because you don't have enough internet power. 412 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:42,000 And so the movie freezes to catch up with your internet connection. 413 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:48,000 And then it came on my television that you could do one of three things. 414 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:52,000 You could continue watching the movie. 415 00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:57,000 Or you could record it to watch another time. 416 00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:06,000 Or you could disconnect some of your devices so that your internet will have more power. 417 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:09,000 You're gonna help me close this, won't you? 418 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:13,000 You could continue watching the movie. 419 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:17,000 Or you could record it to watch it at another time. 420 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:25,000 Or disconnect some of your devices in order for your internet to have more power. 421 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:29,000 You could continue watching the movie. 422 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,000 You could record it for another time. 423 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:37,000 Or you could disconnect some of your electronic devices 424 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:41,000 so that your internet would have more power. 425 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:45,000 You could continue watching the movie. 426 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:49,000 You could record it to watch it another time. 427 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:54,000 Or you could disconnect some of your electronic devices 428 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:58,000 so that your internet will have more power. 429 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:06,000 God is trying to get a blessing to you, but you keep on buffering. 430 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:10,000 You can keep on doing what you're doing. 431 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:14,000 Or you can get back to it at another time. 432 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:18,000 Or you can disconnect some stuff from your life 433 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:22,000 so God can give you more power. 434 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:29,000 Is there anybody here who needs more power? 435 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:35,000 Is there anybody here who needs more grace this morning? 436 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:41,000 Is there anybody here who needs God to bless your life? 437 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:45,000 God's got a blessing with your name on it. 438 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:52,000 And God is trying to get it to you, but you got too many things connected to you. 439 00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:56,000 There's some people you need to get rid of in your life. 440 00:42:56,000 --> 00:43:00,000 There's some circumstances you need to come out of in your life. 441 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:04,000 There's some people you need to unfriend on Facebook. 442 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:08,000 There's some folk you need to quit going to lunch with. 443 00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:13,000 There's some people you need to get out of your concentric circle of concern. 444 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:17,000 Because not everybody means you well. 445 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:21,000 Not everybody wants to see you do good. 446 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:26,000 God wants to bless you, but you keep on buffering. 447 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:29,000 That's why your blessing keeps freezing. 448 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:32,000 That's why you can't get your breakthrough. 449 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:35,000 Now you can keep on doing what you're doing. 450 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:39,000 You can wait and get through it at another time. 451 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:45,000 But why don't you just disconnect something and ask God to bless your life? 452 00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:48,000 Disconnect envy. 453 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,000 Disconnect pride. 454 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:52,000 Disconnect hatred. 455 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:55,000 Disconnect gossiping. 456 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:58,000 Disconnect laziness. 457 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:01,000 Disconnect not reading the Bible. 458 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:04,000 And here's some things you ought to connect with. 459 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:07,000 Connect with somebody who knows Jesus. 460 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:11,000 Connect with somebody who knows how to get a prayer through. 461 00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:15,000 Connect with the power of the Word of God. 462 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:20,000 Because there's power in the Word of God. 463 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:25,000 There's healing in the Word of God. 464 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:29,000 There's deliverance in the Word of God. 465 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:32,000 I need somebody to help me right now. 466 00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:35,000 Who knows that the Word has power. 467 00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:40,000 If you've ever been by yourself and called on the name of Jesus. 468 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:44,000 And you start feeling good for no reason. 469 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:47,000 You started laughing and nothing was funny. 470 00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:50,000 You started crying and nothing was bothering you. 471 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:54,000 You got in a hurry and you weren't going nowhere. 472 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:57,000 Because God's been so good to you. 473 00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:00,000 God has opened so many doors for you. 474 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,000 God has made so many ways for you. 475 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:06,000 You just start thanking Him for your blessings. 476 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:10,000 You just start giving Him glory for His goodness. 477 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:13,000 Why don't you tell the Lord right now. 478 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:16,000 Enlarge my territory. 479 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,000 Don't look at nobody else. 480 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:21,000 Don't ask nobody else to do it. 481 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,000 You've got to pray for yourself. 482 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:26,000 Ask God enlarge. 483 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,000 My territory. 484 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:31,000 Come on, say it like you mean it. 485 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:35,000 Enlarge my territory. 486 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:38,000 Open your arms wide. 487 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:43,000 Tell Him enlarge my territory. 488 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:46,000 And then put your hands on yourself. 489 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:51,000 And ask God to put your hands on me. 490 00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:55,000 Keep me from the evil ones. 491 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:59,000 Keep me from the slabs of the devil. 492 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:04,000 Keep me from somebody who's lying on me. 493 00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:08,000 Keep me from somebody who's trying to destroy me. 494 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:13,000 Keep me from somebody laughing in my face. 495 00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:16,000 And lying behind my back. 496 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:20,000 Keep me from somebody who's trying to trip me up. 497 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:23,000 Let nothing evil get hold of me. 498 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:26,000 And then with God grants your request. 499 00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:29,000 Come to church next Sunday. 500 00:46:29,000 -->
