1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,400 There's always more. 2 00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:04,360 There's always going to be more. 3 00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:06,960 And our Father wants us to understand that 4 00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,740 it's really worth seeking him wholeheartedly 5 00:00:10,740 --> 00:00:14,700 because he has more for us than we can even imagine. 6 00:00:14,700 --> 00:00:17,960 Now there are spiritual blessings that are there 7 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:22,480 that we can't comprehend unless we pursue them. 8 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:24,640 Yes, and persevere. 9 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:26,440 You just keep pursuing. 10 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:39,760 God promises in Joel 2, 28 to pour out his Spirit on all humanity. 11 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:44,160 Welcome to Global Outpouring, where we contend for that promise outpouring, 12 00:00:44,160 --> 00:00:49,320 we equip for that outpouring, so that we may engage in that very outpouring. 13 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:50,600 I'm Philip Bus. 14 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:51,600 And I'm Sharon Bus. 15 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:53,120 Welcome to the podcast today. 16 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,260 We're so glad that you're with us. 17 00:00:55,260 --> 00:00:57,760 The Lord began speaking to my spirit this morning 18 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:01,640 about the scripture that's in Jeremiah 29, 13. 19 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:07,080 And you will seek me and find me when you search for me with all your heart. 20 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,840 It's time for us to seek the Lord like never before. 21 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:19,840 And the wonderful thing is that when we seek him, we will find him. 22 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:21,600 Thank you so much for joining us today. 23 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,200 We are delighted that we can be

Marriott Hotel. 31 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,140 It's going to be a wonderful family camp time. 32 00:02:06,140 --> 00:02:12,840 It's going to be a time of meeting God in a marvelous way for all the age groups. 33 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:19,880 We've got nursery and children's ministry and youth ministry and something for everyone 34 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:24,440 that's going to cause everyone in the family to come closer to Jesus and walk with him 35 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:25,800 more closely. 36 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,640 So we want to encourage you to be with us for that. 37 00:02:28,640 --> 00:02:35,120 We have Dr. Tony Kemp with us, Bishop Tony Kemp, and he is just a glory man. 38 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:41,680 We love the way that he flows in the Holy Spirit and brings fresh bread every time he 39 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:42,920 ministers. 40 00:02:42,920 --> 00:02:47,280 And we have Dean Braxton who's going to be with us and he's going to be even having a 41 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:54,220 special Q&A time talking about whatever your questions are about heaven and his experience 42 00:02:54,220 --> 00:02:59,680 of going to heaven for an hour and 45 minutes when he left his body and his body died. 43 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:04,880 And we have others and God is going to pour out his spirit in a powerful way in that time. 44 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,740 We want to encourage you to be there. 45 00:03:07,740 --> 00:03:10,520 Come and bring some hungry people with you. 46 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,280 It's going to be a glory time. 47 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:18,580 So today we're talking about seek the Lord with your whole heart and find him. 48 00:03:18,580 --> 00:03:21,880 It's about seeking for him with your whole heart. 49 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:31,560 It's real easy to kind of half heartedly seek and you'll only maybe not even half find him. 50 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:36,560 But when you seek for him with your whole heart, something happens. 51 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:41,560 Something happens that is actually a healing for your heart and it's a uniting of your 52 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:45,960 heart and uniting your heart with him because really he designed us. 53 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:53,520 He's our father and he designed us with a place in his heart for us and a place for 54 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,720 him in our hearts. 55 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,620 When we seek him, it's like for a classical guitar. 56 00:03:59,620 --> 00:04:03,800 There was a point where I finally felt like I was going somewhere. 57 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:08,520 And then before that, just learning your learning scales and learning things. 58 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:09,520 Boring. 59 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:10,520 Yeah, it's boring. 60 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:15,920 And you know, in our day, you know, that's minimal. 61 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:19,800 But there is a point where you feel like you're accomplishing something. 62 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,800 And that's the same way with prayer life too. 63 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:26,960 When you're first starting out, sometimes it doesn't feel like you're going anywhere 64 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:27,960 like you want. 65 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:33,360 You know, it says, Lord, I'm spending all this time, but maybe he wants you to spend 66 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:34,900 a little more time. 67 00:04:34,900 --> 00:04:35,900 It's like half hearted. 68 00:04:35,900 --> 00:04:39,880 You know, to be good at something, you have to work at it. 69 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:40,880 Yes. 70 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:41,880 And you put your heart into it. 71 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:43,880 It's kind of true across the board in anything. 72 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:44,880 Sure. 73 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:49,440 If you're into sports, you know, you're not going to get up there and play basketball 74 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,440 like Caitlin Clark. 75 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,400 Unless you have practiced a lot. 76 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:56,400 Right. 77 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:57,400 You put your heart in. 78 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:58,400 You put your heart in. 79 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:02,960 And you know, she puts her heart into, she cares more about the game than I think than 80 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:03,960 winning for herself. 81 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:04,960 Right. 82 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,000 You know, because she's all about winning. 83 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,000 And the team. 84 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,000 And the team. 85 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:10,000 And the team is there. 86 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,000 Right. 87 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:12,000 Which is what we're supposed to be. 88 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,000 Exactly. 89 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:14,000 We spend more time with the Lord. 90 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,680 We won't be loose cannons. 91 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,360 Ah, you know, loose. 92 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:23,640 When you connect with other people of the same synergy that have the same vision and 93 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:24,640 pull as you. 94 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:25,640 Yeah. 95 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:26,640 It creates a synergy. 96 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:27,640 It creates that. 97 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:28,640 Yeah. 98 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,400 Otherwise you're just a cannon out there sometimes. 99 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:32,400 Yeah. 100 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:36,360 There's something that happens when the weight of his glory comes down on you. 101 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:37,360 Yeah. 102 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:43,040 There's a weightiness that, you know, when you really get into a heavy presence of the 103 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:47,480 Lord, you wind up on your knees or on your face. 104 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:48,480 Yes. 105 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:53,720 You know, it's like when the glory of God came in at the dedication of the tabernacle 106 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,320 and again at the dedication of the temple. 107 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,640 When the glory came in, the priests couldn't stand up. 108 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:05,680 You know, when Jesus was resurrected, the guards that were there, they fell down. 109 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:10,040 Even in the garden of Gethsemane, they fell down when Jesus said, I am. 110 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,040 Remember Steven Lytle, he wrote the book Exodus 2. 111 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:18,280 It was about the Jews coming out of Europe, you know, out of Russia. 112 00:06:18,280 --> 00:06:20,040 And he was on a long fast. 113 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:21,040 Oh, yeah. 114 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,920 And he's, I think it was in, maybe it was in Russia or he was in Germany. 115 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:25,920 I'm not sure where he was. 116 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:27,800 I don't know where he was, but I remember that part of the story. 117 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,680 But the power of God just came down and he's just on the floor. 118 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,660 And people would walk into the room and fall on their face. 119 00:06:35,660 --> 00:06:40,320 The more closeness they had with the Lord, the longer they could stay in the glory. 120 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:41,320 Yes. 121 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,160 But there came a point where most of them, they had to crawl out. 122 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:45,160 They couldn't handle it. 123 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:46,160 It was so intense. 124 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:47,160 Yeah. 125 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:48,160 I thought, wow. 126 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,880 He was seeking the Lord with all his heart in fasting. 127 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,640 And which Isaiah was, you know, seeking the Lord. 128 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:59,280 And when Isaiah chapter six, woe is me, I am undone. 129 00:06:59,280 --> 00:07:00,280 Right. 130 00:07:00,280 --> 00:07:01,280 Yeah. 131 00:07:01,280 --> 00:07:02,280 And just fall on your face. 132 00:07:02,280 --> 00:07:03,280 Right. 133 00:07:03,280 --> 00:07:06,320 And you know, we could be like Ezekiel, the Lord will take you by a lock of your hair 134 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:12,320 and pull you up out of your, pull your spirit out of your body to see what's happening somewhere. 135 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:13,320 Yeah. 136 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:14,320 But he had relationship. 137 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:15,320 Relationship. 138 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:17,320 Through tough times. 139 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:18,320 Yeah. 140 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:26,640 And to go back to this scripture in Jeremiah 29 13, the context is really important here 141 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:27,640 for you to understand. 142 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:33,240 And, you know, everybody just about can quote Jeremiah 29 11, for I know the thoughts that 143 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:38,200 I think toward you says the Lord thoughts of peace and not of evil to give you an expected 144 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,760 end, or to give you a future and a hope. 145 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,360 It's in another translation that way. 146 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:47,960 Most people can quote that, but they tend to quote it out of context. 147 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:53,000 The context of that scripture and this one about you shall seek me and find me when you 148 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:54,760 search for me with all your heart. 149 00:07:54,760 --> 00:08:02,560 The context of this is Jeremiah's letter to the people that have just been deported to 150 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,920 Babylon. 151 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,640 And you know, they weren't expecting to be deported to Babylon. 152 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:13,240 They weren't expected to be carried away into captivity. 153 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:21,680 But Jeremiah's writing to them and saying, look, you guys are in the best possible position. 154 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:27,360 Everybody that's left behind here is going to die by the sword or die by the famine. 155 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:33,280 And so you are blessed to have been taken to Babylon. 156 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:39,140 So verse five says, build houses and dwell in them, plant gardens and eat fruit of them. 157 00:08:39,140 --> 00:08:45,000 Verse six, take wives, have children, take wives for your sons and give your daughters 158 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:51,440 to husbands that they may bear sons and daughters, that they may be increased there and not diminished. 159 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:57,640 And then it goes on to say, seek the peace of the city where you've been carried away 160 00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:58,640 captive. 161 00:08:58,640 --> 00:08:59,920 Bloom where you're planted. 162 00:08:59,920 --> 00:09:01,960 That's a good way to say it. 163 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:08,000 That says, pray unto Yehovah for it, for the city where you've been taken. 164 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,900 For in the peace thereof, you shall have peace. 165 00:09:11,900 --> 00:09:18,360 In other words, wherever God has taken you and planted you, do everything that you can 166 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,760 to bring peace to that place. 167 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,720 Pray for the peace of the place that you've been sent. 168 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,600 That's what Joseph did when he was in captivity. 169 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:36,800 Wherever he went, Potiphar's house, the jail, then like a son to Pharaoh, favor. 170 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:43,400 Yes, because the anointing of God is upon the people of his covenant. 171 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:51,380 So if we are Gentiles, we're not Jewish people, we've been grafted into that covenant. 172 00:09:51,380 --> 00:09:55,640 So we also have expectations of him keeping his covenant with us. 173 00:09:55,640 --> 00:10:00,080 Because if he doesn't keep his covenant with Israel, why would we think he's gonna keep 174 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:01,080 it with us? 175 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:02,080 Truth. 176 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:09,000 So all of these things happened to Israel because of the covenant, because of the rules 177 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,520 and the instructions that God gave. 178 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:16,240 And we had a podcast several weeks ago about the law. 179 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:17,240 What about the law? 180 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:23,080 Well, before we go on to that, I just wanna finish talking about this, that in verse 10, 181 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:30,560 Jeremiah prophesies, for thus says Yehovah, the Lord, that after 70 years be accomplished 182 00:10:30,560 --> 00:10:38,040 at Babylon, I will visit you and perform my good word toward you in causing you to return 183 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:39,280 to this place. 184 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:44,200 So settle down is the point, settle down, you're gonna be here for 70 years. 185 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:45,920 So just hang in there. 186 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:52,040 So then comes the verse 11 that everyone quotes, for I know the thoughts that I think toward 187 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,920 you, says the Lord, thoughts of shalom. 188 00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:02,960 So shalom means there's nothing broken, nothing missing, everything is paid in full, peace, 189 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:04,440 real peace. 190 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,640 And it also implies prosperity too. 191 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:13,520 So thoughts of peace, thoughts of shalom and not of evil to give you an expected end. 192 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,440 And that word expected there is the word tikvah, and it means hope. 193 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:18,440 Hope. 194 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:24,620 You know, hatikvah is the name of the national anthem of Israel and it means the hope. 195 00:11:24,620 --> 00:11:34,440 So you have a hope, just settle down and live and bless the place where you are and live 196 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,680 like normal and worship God. 197 00:11:37,680 --> 00:11:42,520 Because the whole problem was that the people had gotten into idolatry. 198 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:46,600 And that seems to be the thing that God hates most of all. 199 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:53,720 You know, it says right at the beginning of the 10 commandments, for I the Lord or Yehovah, 200 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:58,440 your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children. 201 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,920 It's about have no other gods before me. 202 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:02,920 Yes. 203 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:09,720 But time after time, the people, first of all, because they didn't deal with their enemies, 204 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:14,800 they didn't wipe out everybody that God told them to wipe out, they learned their ways, 205 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:16,440 which were idolatrous ways. 206 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:26,900 So if you roll back the time clock and look at when God sent them into the land of Canaan, 207 00:12:26,900 --> 00:12:37,280 remember that Noah had cursed Canaan because Ham, the son of Noah, mocked him for being 208 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:42,260 drunken and naked in his tent and mocked him to his brothers. 209 00:12:42,260 --> 00:12:44,500 And who knows what else he might have done. 210 00:12:44,500 --> 00:12:46,340 That's not clear in the Bible. 211 00:12:46,340 --> 00:12:51,380 But Noah cursed Canaan, one of the sons of Ham. 212 00:12:51,380 --> 00:12:58,120 And it was the Canaanites that were inhabiting the land that among the Canaanites were giants. 213 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:07,700 Now remember that the flood came because of the Nephilim, the giants, all of these offspring 214 00:13:07,700 --> 00:13:17,440 of the, quote, sons of God, unquote, that made wives out of the daughters of men and 215 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:21,160 had these monster kind of offspring. 216 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,960 I have a theory for what it's worth. 217 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:28,480 I don't know if it's worth anything or not, but I have a theory that maybe there was just 218 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:36,520 a little bit of DNA from that stuff that was in Ham's wife and it came into Canaan. 219 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:37,880 Oh, it's possible. 220 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:38,880 It's possible. 221 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:40,200 I don't know. 222 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:46,080 But we know that they were giants in the land and God had been trying to get rid of them 223 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,880 because they were just evil. 224 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,320 They're offspring of fallen beings. 225 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:58,240 And so if they had gotten rid of the Canaanites, all of them like they were supposed to, then 226 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,580 they wouldn't have had this problem with idolatry. 227 00:14:01,580 --> 00:14:08,360 But idolatry is putting something ahead of God that you worship instead of him. 228 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:09,360 Yeah. 229 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:17,120 You know, in Matthew 633, but seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and 230 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,080 all these things shall be added onto you. 231 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:21,080 Absolutely. 232 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,720 There's a real principle there. 233 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:31,480 So if we're not fully seeking the Lord, maybe we're not getting blessed the way we should. 234 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:32,480 Right. 235 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:33,480 There's always more. 236 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,460 There's always going to be more. 237 00:14:36,460 --> 00:14:42,640 And our father wants us to understand that it's really worth seeking him wholeheartedly 238 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:46,160 because he has more for us than we can even imagine. 239 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:53,880 Now, there are spiritual blessings that are there that we can't comprehend unless we pursue 240 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:54,880 them. 241 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:55,880 Yes. 242 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:56,880 And persevere. 243 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,040 You just keep pursuing. 244 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:05,880 So you know, God made it clear in his word that he gave to Moses. 245 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:09,780 He said it three different times in the Torah. 246 00:15:09,780 --> 00:15:13,680 He warned his people what will happen if they don't follow him and live according to his 247 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:14,760 instructions. 248 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:20,320 So I won't read all of these scriptures, but if you want to follow up, you can go to Leviticus 249 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:31,520 chapter 26 and verses 31 to 33 and 36 describe what's going to happen if you don't follow 250 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:37,920 the rules, if you don't follow me wholeheartedly, if you don't love me enough to follow me. 251 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:41,240 Remember Jesus said, if you love me, keep my commandments. 252 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:45,220 So keeping his commandments is part of loving him. 253 00:15:45,220 --> 00:15:51,980 It's the love relationship that God has been trying for all these generations to get us 254 00:15:51,980 --> 00:15:56,760 to understand that he loves us. 255 00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:02,780 And he loved Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and made these promises to them for the land that 256 00:16:02,780 --> 00:16:04,040 would be inhabited. 257 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,400 And it was this land that the Canaanites had occupied. 258 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,880 So anyway, God warns, here's what's going to happen. 259 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,960 I'm going to lay your city's waste and your sanctuaries. 260 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:14,960 I'm going to bring it down. 261 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,200 I'm not going to smell the good fragrance of your sweet aromas. 262 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:24,280 You can burn all the incense you want, but I'm not going to smell it. 263 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:28,800 If you are not doing this for me from your heart, if you're doing it for these other 264 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,840 idols and stuff, forget it. 265 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,400 And he says, I'll bring you to the land of desolations. 266 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,720 Your enemies who dwell in it shall be astonished at it. 267 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:41,240 I'll scatter you among the nations and draw a sword after you. 268 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:42,240 And he goes on. 269 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,240 It's about being taken away captive. 270 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:45,480 I remember Howard Pittman. 271 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,960 He was a Baptist preacher. 272 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,440 And he did everything which you would think would be right. 273 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,880 I mean, he worked with troubled kids. 274 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,200 He gave tracks away. 275 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,720 And then he had a massive heart attack and died. 276 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,920 Went to heaven and Jesus wouldn't let him in. 277 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,640 He said, everything you did, you did for yourself. 278 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,760 It wasn't for me. 279 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,920 I'm sending you back with another chance. 280 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:14,160 And when he came back, he came through that second realm and the Lord showed him all the 281 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:18,520 demonic of the second heaven with all the activity going on. 282 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,640 So you really know what you're fighting against. 283 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:26,200 And it's just an amazing story. 284 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:27,200 It's not works. 285 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:28,200 Right. 286 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:29,200 Exactly. 287 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,920 For by grace you are saved by faith and not of yourselves. 288 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:37,240 It's a gift of God, not of works, as any man should boast. 289 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:38,240 That's right. 290 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:39,240 That's exactly right. 291 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,600 That puts it in perspective. 292 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:42,600 Certainly does. 293 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:47,000 And so much of the time, you know, especially as we're growing up and we're being taught 294 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:52,720 the ways that we're supposed to do the things we're supposed to do, and we do them by rote 295 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,840 rather than doing them by the heart. 296 00:17:56,840 --> 00:18:03,480 And then even in the captivity, when you read the book of Ezekiel, where the Lord takes him, 297 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,400 he's already on the way to Babylon. 298 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:06,400 Yeah. 299 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,160 They're by the river Kibar. 300 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,320 And he's among the says he's among the captives. 301 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:19,320 That's when the Lord takes him by a lock of his hair, his spirit, and takes him up and 302 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:20,520 lets him look down. 303 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:26,360 He can see what everything is going on in the temple, all the abomination, all the abomination 304 00:18:26,360 --> 00:18:32,160 to Egypt, and they're all burning incense facing the, I forget they're facing the east 305 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:37,040 or something that said the Lord, the Lord doesn't see us, the Lord doesn't care. 306 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:44,160 You know, and the statue of Tammuz, the goddess of fertility, was also in the temple. 307 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:45,160 He saw that. 308 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:46,160 Yeah. 309 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:47,160 Idolatry. 310 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:53,920 All this idolatry, and the common person out there may not know that was going on. 311 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,280 What's going on in the leadership. 312 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:57,280 Behind closed doors. 313 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,000 Behind closed doors. 314 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:00,000 Yeah. 315 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,020 And so I think that's why many were shocked. 316 00:19:03,020 --> 00:19:07,840 How can God let this happen to us if they're doing all the right thing, but the priesthood 317 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:09,000 is not. 318 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,920 So maybe they were the ones that got carried away captive. 319 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:12,920 Wow. 320 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:13,920 And spared. 321 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:14,920 And spared. 322 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:15,920 Yeah. 323 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:21,200 So back to what the Lord was saying in the Torah, he says this three times, okay? 324 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:29,640 Leviticus 26 and Deuteronomy 4 and Deuteronomy 29 and 30. 325 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:36,120 Basically it's the same message three times where he says, if you persist in your idolatry, 326 00:19:36,120 --> 00:19:41,120 I'm going to throw you out of the land and the land is going to have a chance to get 327 00:19:41,120 --> 00:19:44,860 its rest because you're not going to give rest to it like I told you to. 328 00:19:44,860 --> 00:19:50,480 He already knew that they weren't going to give that seventh year of sabbatical rest 329 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:51,920 to the land. 330 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:56,440 And he goes on to say, he's going to scatter them into the nations. 331 00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:03,360 But every time he says, when you're in tribulation, this is Deuteronomy 4 and verse 30, when you're 332 00:20:03,360 --> 00:20:08,920 in tribulation and all these things come upon you in the latter days, you will return to 333 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:12,200 the Lord or Yehovah your God and obey his voice. 334 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,040 For Yehovah your God is a merciful God. 335 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:19,620 He will not leave you or destroy you or forget the covenant with your fathers that he swore 336 00:20:19,620 --> 00:20:20,880 to them. 337 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,500 Same thing in Deuteronomy 29. 338 00:20:23,500 --> 00:20:27,800 He tells them what he's going to do to them, all these curses. 339 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:32,800 And then in chapter 30 verse 1, when all these things come upon you, the blessing and the 340 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:37,740 curse which I've set before you and you call them to mind among all the nations where Yehovah 341 00:20:37,740 --> 00:20:43,340 your God has driven you and return to Yehovah your God, you and your children and obey 342 00:20:43,340 --> 00:20:48,440 his voice in all that I command you today with all your heart and with all your soul. 343 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:49,960 Here it is again. 344 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:56,680 Then Yehovah your God will restore your fortunes and have mercy on you and he will gather you 345 00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:01,680 again from all the peoples where the Lord your God has scattered you. 346 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:07,000 And he goes on in verse 6 and says, and the Lord your God will circumcise your heart and 347 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:12,200 the heart of your offspring so that you will love the Lord your God, Yehovah your God with 348 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:16,620 all your heart and with all your soul so that you may live. 349 00:21:16,620 --> 00:21:23,040 And he goes on, he says in verse 15, see I have set before you today life and good, death 350 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:24,040 and evil. 351 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:28,560 If you obey the commandments of the Lord your God that I command you today by loving the 352 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:33,480 Lord your God, by walking in his ways, by keeping his commandments and his statute center's 353 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:38,620 rules, then you shall live and multiply and the Lord your God will bless you in the land 354 00:21:38,620 --> 00:21:42,360 that you are entering to take possession of it. 355 00:21:42,360 --> 00:21:46,560 But if your heart turns away, it's because they're there, Moses is reading them the riot 356 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:50,040 act, basically, and telling them, look, you got to do good. 357 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,280 You got to follow the rules. 358 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,320 Yeah, because he's your God. 359 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,360 Yehovah is your God. 360 00:21:56,360 --> 00:21:58,960 Do it his way and he will bless you. 361 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:00,760 He will prosper you. 362 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:04,840 Just love him and obey him out of love. 363 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,400 But if you don't, here's what's going to happen. 364 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:11,720 You're going into this land and you know, here's what's going to happen if you don't 365 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:13,280 do what he says. 366 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:19,280 So he goes on to declare verse 19, I call heaven and earth to witness against you today 367 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,200 that I've set before you life and death, blessing and curse. 368 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:27,960 Therefore choose life that you and your offspring may live loving Yehovah your God, obeying 369 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:33,520 his voice and holding fast to him for he is your life and length of days that you may 370 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:39,000 dwell in the land that you have swore to your fathers to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob 371 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,040 to give to them. 372 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:42,320 So this is the promise. 373 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:50,040 And what he's saying is that he wants you to understand you've got a choice. 374 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:56,000 And you know, going back to Jeremiah 29, he's telling the people that have been sent to 375 00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:02,800 Babylon, I know the thoughts I think toward you, their thoughts of peace, not of evil, 376 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:07,040 to give you an expected end, to give you a future and a hope. 377 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:13,080 And you shall call upon me and you shall go and pray unto me and I will hearken to you 378 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:18,280 and you shall seek me and find me when you search for me with all your heart. 379 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,280 That's the context. 380 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:25,080 It's in this place where they're already in trouble. 381 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,520 They and their fathers have been worshiping idols. 382 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:37,320 And it's very clear in Isaiah 59, he says in verse one, behold, Yehovah's hand is not 383 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:41,120 shortened that it cannot save or is ear dull that it cannot hear. 384 00:23:41,120 --> 00:23:47,400 But your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God and your sins have 385 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:50,620 hidden his face from you so that he does not hear. 386 00:23:50,620 --> 00:23:54,300 For your hands are defiled with blood and your fingers with iniquity. 387 00:23:54,300 --> 00:23:55,680 Your lips have spoken lies. 388 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,680 Your tongue mutters wickedness. 389 00:23:57,680 --> 00:23:59,960 No one enters suit justly. 390 00:23:59,960 --> 00:24:01,080 No one goes to law. 391 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:04,440 Honestly, they rely on empty pleas and they speak lies. 392 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,920 They conceive mischief and give birth to iniquity. 393 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:12,760 And then the last half of verse six, it says their works are iniquity and deeds of violence 394 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:13,760 are in their hands. 395 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,000 Their feet run to evil and they're swift to shed innocent blood. 396 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,520 Their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity. 397 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:19,960 And it goes on. 398 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:24,360 And verse 12 says, for our transgressions are multiplied before you and our sins testify 399 00:24:24,360 --> 00:24:28,880 against us, for our transgressions are with us and we know our iniquities transgressing 400 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:33,840 and denying the Lord and turning back from following our God, speaking oppression and 401 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:39,880 revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart lying words. 402 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:41,720 So what's your heart doing? 403 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:43,880 This is about your heart. 404 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:48,960 Is your heart engaged with doing all the wrong stuff or is our heart engaged with doing the 405 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,200 right stuff with the Lord? 406 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:56,320 Or are we doing kind of half and half, halfhearted? 407 00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:01,000 You were talking about your classical guitar and you felt like you were getting somewhere. 408 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:06,800 I remember when I was in school and I was learning to play the bassoon. 409 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:10,100 That's an unusual instrument. 410 00:25:10,100 --> 00:25:13,400 And I was only halfhearted about it. 411 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:17,440 If I was the only bassoon player, I was first chair. 412 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,760 If there were two of us, I was second chair. 413 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,480 If there were three of us, I was third chair. 414 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,600 And there was one time that there were four of us and I was fourth chair. 415 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:26,600 Four bassoons. 416 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:27,600 Four bassoons. 417 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:28,600 That's amazing. 418 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:29,640 Yeah, it was. 419 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,040 But the bottom line is I was only halfhearted about it. 420 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,120 I was not practicing. 421 00:25:34,120 --> 00:25:36,180 I was not working at it. 422 00:25:36,180 --> 00:25:39,280 My heart wasn't in it like it should have been. 423 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,960 I wasn't ready to apply myself. 424 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,520 So I had other interests, right? 425 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,880 The choir was a bigger interest. 426 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:47,880 Yeah. 427 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,600 I didn't even get into choir until I had quit bassoon. 428 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:52,080 Oh, okay. 429 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:57,760 Yeah, I took it up again briefly as a senior because I thought I'm going to be a music 430 00:25:57,760 --> 00:25:58,760 major. 431 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,400 I figured I had to go back to band. 432 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,320 But my point is I was halfhearted about it. 433 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,840 I wasn't putting my whole heart into it. 434 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:11,160 So there are things that we want to do. 435 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:14,700 Think about the disciples in the Garden of Gethsemane. 436 00:26:14,700 --> 00:26:17,860 And Jesus says, pray with me. 437 00:26:17,860 --> 00:26:19,200 And they all fell asleep. 438 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:20,200 Three times. 439 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:21,200 Yeah. 440 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:26,360 And sometimes that happens even when we're trying to seek the Lord in the middle of the 441 00:26:26,360 --> 00:26:27,360 night. 442 00:26:27,360 --> 00:26:28,360 Yes, that's true. 443 00:26:28,360 --> 00:26:30,080 They fall asleep. 444 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,400 And you don't know you fall asleep until you wake up. 445 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,640 I know what Saru, Salvarud says. 446 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,200 Get up in the night, get a cup of tea. 447 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,960 Or that's the thing you do in their culture. 448 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:41,960 Right. 449 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,080 And or get yourself some coffee. 450 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,440 Just don't make it so strong where you can't get back to sleep after. 451 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,880 Yeah, whenever it's time. 452 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:56,680 But anyway, the point is that if you seek him with your whole heart, you'll be found 453 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:58,680 of him. 454 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:02,640 And sometimes we have to get a little bit desperate. 455 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,840 Sometimes it's kind of like hide and seek. 456 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:09,680 The Lord, he inspires us to follow him. 457 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:15,440 And then other things come along to distract us. 458 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:19,960 And we kind of forget about following like we should. 459 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,360 Like he designed us for you. 460 00:27:22,360 --> 00:27:28,600 The design is for us to follow him, to flow with him, to be with him. 461 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:34,240 So the best time to follow him is when you have less distractions to start, which is 462 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,400 usually in the night. 463 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:37,400 Right. 464 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:38,400 When everybody else is asleep. 465 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:39,520 Or early morning. 466 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:40,520 Early morning. 467 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:44,960 You know, Jesus rose and went to prayer a great while before day. 468 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:50,440 So it's those hours before the morning, before everybody else wakes up. 469 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:51,440 Yeah. 470 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:55,600 So if your eyes pop open in the night, just get up and pray. 471 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:57,840 There's a reason for it. 472 00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:58,840 Yes. 473 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,080 And you accomplish something. 474 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:05,240 And sometimes he'll lay certain things on your heart to pray about. 475 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,300 And sometimes you just pray in tongues. 476 00:28:07,300 --> 00:28:09,120 And sometimes you just be still. 477 00:28:09,120 --> 00:28:10,480 Or you just worship. 478 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:11,480 Or worship. 479 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:16,080 And the being still is the part where I tend to fall asleep. 480 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:17,480 Yeah, that's true. 481 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:23,120 Sometimes I walk to keep myself from falling asleep if I get up in the night. 482 00:28:23,120 --> 00:28:24,400 And I'm not super spiritual. 483 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:25,640 I don't do that all the time. 484 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,600 But once in a while, the Lord lays it on my heart. 485 00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:32,940 But I do want to seek him with all my heart. 486 00:28:32,940 --> 00:28:38,440 And I do want to find him because there are things that he has for us that he's waiting 487 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:43,760 for us to let go of the distractions. 488 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:47,360 We had a time of fasting here recently. 489 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:56,800 And in the fast, I stopped looking at certain news apps that was keeping me up to date on 490 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:58,760 certain things that were going on. 491 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:00,080 I just stopped. 492 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,520 And I haven't gone back to it. 493 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,520 And I feel good about that. 494 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,560 Because I found that I was being distracted. 495 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,240 You're taking a lot of extra time. 496 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:10,240 Yeah. 497 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:17,200 So the Lord is trying to help us, the Holy Spirit is trying to help us to get focused. 498 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,560 Because there's different kinds of light. 499 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,900 You've got these lights that are quite diffused. 500 00:29:22,900 --> 00:29:27,160 For instance, okay, like at night, these farm lights, we live on a farm, right, out in the 501 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:28,620 country. 502 00:29:28,620 --> 00:29:32,200 And for years, we just had mercury vapor lamps. 503 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:38,000 And they're just a bluish light with a slow frequency. 504 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,840 But now we've got some of these LED lights. 505 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:41,840 And they're sharp. 506 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:43,380 They're very bright. 507 00:29:43,380 --> 00:29:46,800 And your shadows are very sharp and defined. 508 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,240 Yeah, that was, remember you pointed it out. 509 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,360 And I thought, yeah, you know, you're right. 510 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,960 Yeah, I think it has to do with the frequency. 511 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:58,640 But anyway, you know, my point is that there's kind of like diffused light, and then there's 512 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,020 sharp light. 513 00:30:00,020 --> 00:30:05,120 There's even laser light that's very focused, and it'll burn right through things. 514 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:09,980 So the Lord is trying to focus us. 515 00:30:09,980 --> 00:30:14,280 Sometimes He wants us to be diffused, right, so that we're shining big. 516 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:20,640 But I think He would rather have us shine bigger with a more focused light. 517 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:21,640 You know what I'm talking about? 518 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,600 Am I making sense? 519 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:30,800 It's about this seeking Him has to do with He wants to be found of you. 520 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,980 He wants you to find Him. 521 00:30:33,980 --> 00:30:39,120 And it's up to you to make that choice really on a moment by moment basis. 522 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:40,120 Yes. 523 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:45,400 Because He wants us to be operating with Him, flowing with Him. 524 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:53,300 You know, 2 Chronicles chapter 6, verses 37 to 39, where Solomon is praying at the dedication 525 00:30:53,300 --> 00:30:55,400 of the temple. 526 00:30:55,400 --> 00:31:01,140 And he's talking about one of these situations where the children of Israel might be in some 527 00:31:01,140 --> 00:31:02,140 other land. 528 00:31:02,140 --> 00:31:05,640 Now that had never happened yet in Solomon's time. 529 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:10,880 But he was going back to what the Lord had said three times that I just pointed out to 530 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:16,560 you from Leviticus and twice in Deuteronomy, three times where God warns the people, you're 531 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,120 going to be sent to some other land. 532 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:22,960 You're going to be scattered to the nations if you don't do what I've told you to do. 533 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:29,840 So, Solomon is praying this, yet if they turn their heart in the land to which they've been 534 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:35,000 carried captive and repent and plead with you in the land of their captivity saying, 535 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,720 we have sinned and have acted perversely and wickedly. 536 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:44,240 If they repent with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their captivity 537 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:48,200 to which they were carried captive and pray toward their land, which you gave to their 538 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:52,960 fathers, the city that you've chosen and the house that I've built for your name, then 539 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:59,000 hear from heaven, your dwelling place, their prayers and their pleas and maintain their 540 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:03,220 cause and forgive your people who have sinned against you. 541 00:32:03,220 --> 00:32:09,280 And he's praying all these different prayers about if people will pray toward this place, 542 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:10,280 hear from heaven. 543 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:11,960 He's asking God to hear from heaven. 544 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:17,160 And then just a couple of verses later, the glory falls and the people can't stand up. 545 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,280 They all fall to their knees. 546 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:26,360 So Psalm 91 verse 15 says, he shall call upon me and I will answer him. 547 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:27,880 I will be with him in trouble. 548 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,080 I will deliver him and honor him. 549 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:36,560 God is looking for these wholehearted people or these people who have gone off the rails 550 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:41,520 and realize they've gone off the rails and they come back to him. 551 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:51,760 There's a difference between conviction of sin and repentance and being shamed and self-loathing. 552 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:57,840 Because when you find yourself off the rails, when you find that you've, oh, I really made 553 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:04,360 a stupid mistake and I fell into some kind of sin, I've done something I shouldn't have 554 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:05,360 done. 555 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:12,560 God wants us to recognize that we've made this mistake and repent. 556 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:16,800 Repent means to turn around and go back the way you should be going. 557 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,880 You return to him. 558 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,120 And that's repentance. 559 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,760 That's being restored to him. 560 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:30,240 There's a hope of expectation and expectation of restoration. 561 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,000 It restores the relationship. 562 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:33,440 He forgives. 563 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,520 He's always looking to forgive us. 564 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:41,480 He's trying to draw us back to him when we've dropped the ball. 565 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:49,600 But the tempter, the one that operates in darkness, he'll tempt you into sin and then 566 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:56,000 he'll smear you and slime you and make you feel so awful. 567 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,840 That is not conviction. 568 00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:58,840 That is shame. 569 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,040 Very well put. 570 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:06,000 So our Father brings conviction, the Holy Spirit brings conviction. 571 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:09,780 And with conviction is a drawing back. 572 00:34:09,780 --> 00:34:11,480 Come back to me. 573 00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,060 Come back to me. 574 00:34:13,060 --> 00:34:15,000 Come back to me. 575 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:19,160 If you seek him with your heart, with your whole heart, you will find him. 576 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:20,160 Yeah. 577 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:27,560 Remember, there was this amazing worship leader that his music was just, it was so powerful, 578 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,320 the worship. 579 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:31,260 And he went big. 580 00:34:31,260 --> 00:34:37,400 He was on big platforms and went overseas and power of God just moved. 581 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:45,000 But on the road, his wife wasn't there and he fell into adultery. 582 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,560 And so he's out of ministry. 583 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:52,080 And one day he's sitting, he's just sitting in his bed and Jesus appears at the end of 584 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:55,600 the bed and says, I'm waiting for you. 585 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:56,600 Are you ready to come back? 586 00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:58,600 Are you ready to come back? 587 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,440 And he did. 588 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:01,440 Yeah. 589 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,440 Well, the Lord wants us to come back. 590 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,240 Yeah, God forgives. 591 00:35:05,240 --> 00:35:06,240 Man doesn't. 592 00:35:06,240 --> 00:35:07,240 That's true. 593 00:35:07,240 --> 00:35:08,240 Makes it tough. 594 00:35:08,240 --> 00:35:09,240 Yeah. 595 00:35:09,240 --> 00:35:10,320 I mean, it's better not to fall. 596 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:11,320 That's the point. 597 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:12,320 It's better not to fall. 598 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:13,880 Better not to fall because it, yeah. 599 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:19,000 And it's good to seek him with your whole heart to keep you from falling. 600 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:24,280 And the tempter will always put something in your path at the right time or the wrong 601 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:27,440 time which can cause you to mess up. 602 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:28,440 Yep. 603 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,720 And it reminds me of Rick Joyner's book, The Final Quest. 604 00:35:31,720 --> 00:35:36,880 And there's a chapter where there, this is dreams and visions that he had on a continual 605 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:41,760 basis and they're in this mountain fighting and all that. 606 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:48,720 And he almost slips, you know, and fall down and an angel that was there said to him, you 607 00:35:48,720 --> 00:35:49,920 know, you have to be careful. 608 00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,880 You can fall from any level at any time. 609 00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:53,880 Yeah. 610 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,200 And we've seen greats fall. 611 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:57,200 Haven't we? 612 00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:58,200 Especially recently. 613 00:35:58,200 --> 00:35:59,200 Yeah. 614 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:00,200 All these things have been uncovered. 615 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:01,720 And great was the fall of it. 616 00:36:01,720 --> 00:36:02,720 Yeah. 617 00:36:02,720 --> 00:36:06,640 And it's not just that person that falls, but it's everything that surrounds around 618 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,800 it pays the price for their mistake. 619 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:10,800 Right. 620 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:11,800 Right. 621 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:12,800 And it brings shame on the whole church. 622 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:14,840 Shame on the whole church. 623 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:19,560 And then your people talk, your relatives will talk, see, that's what you, didn't we 624 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:22,040 warn you about going there? 625 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:27,120 So the Lord is looking for us to return with our whole heart and repent with our whole 626 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:28,120 heart. 627 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:29,120 Yes. 628 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:36,800 We can also repent on behalf of others like Daniel in Daniel chapter nine, he comes with 629 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:43,760 repentance because he sees, he sees that the 70 years have passed, the 70 years that Jeremiah 630 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:47,320 prophesied in the scripture that we started with. 631 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,540 Daniel says, Oh God, please forgive. 632 00:36:50,540 --> 00:36:54,520 And he goes down the whole list of all the things that he was godly. 633 00:36:54,520 --> 00:37:00,240 He didn't fall into those things, but he, he spoke it as though he was, he became an 634 00:37:00,240 --> 00:37:04,120 intercessor and begged for God to forgive. 635 00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:05,680 And God was listening. 636 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:10,240 You will seek me and you will find me when you search for me with all your hearts. 637 00:37:10,240 --> 00:37:12,600 That's what happened with Daniel. 638 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,200 He did that. 639 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:21,560 So the thing that I also am impressed with is back in Isaiah 59, we were in Isaiah 59 640 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:27,320 earlier talking about it's your, it's your iniquities that have made a separation between 641 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:28,480 you and your God. 642 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:29,480 Okay. 643 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:37,680 So going back to that in verse 16, he saw that there was no man and wondered that there 644 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:39,120 was no one to intercede. 645 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:45,120 Now Daniel was an intercessor, but he's looking at a bigger picture, I think in Isaiah 59 646 00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:47,360 because Daniel hadn't happened yet. 647 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:48,400 Right? 648 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:53,340 So in Isaiah 59, he's probably looking at something other than that. 649 00:37:53,340 --> 00:37:57,840 So he saw that there was no man and wondered that there was no one to intercede. 650 00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:03,800 Then his own arm brought him salvation and his righteousness upheld him. 651 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:09,320 He put on righteousness as a breastplate and a helmet of salvation on his head. 652 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:15,600 He put on garments of vengeance for clothing and wrapped himself in zeal as a cloak. 653 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:21,440 According to their deeds, so will he repay wrath to his adversaries, repayment to his 654 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:23,200 enemies to the coastlands. 655 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:24,900 Will he render repayment? 656 00:38:24,900 --> 00:38:31,040 So they shall fear the name of Yehovah from the West and his glory from the rising of 657 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:36,900 the sun, for he will come like a rushing stream, which the wind of the Lord Yehovah drives. 658 00:38:36,900 --> 00:38:44,960 Verse 20, and a redeemer will come to Zion to those in Jacob who turned from their transgression, 659 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:51,480 there's the Lord Yehovah as for me, this is my covenant with them, says the Lord, my spirit 660 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:56,240 that is upon you and my words that I've put in your mouth shall not depart out of your 661 00:38:56,240 --> 00:39:00,760 mouth or out of the mouth of your offspring or out of the mouth of your children's offspring, 662 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:04,480 says the Lord Yehovah from this time forth and forevermore. 663 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:13,400 So what's happening here is he's describing what happened in Isaiah 53 where the Messiah 664 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,720 comes to pay the price. 665 00:39:16,720 --> 00:39:24,160 He puts on the helmet of salvation, he puts on that Yeshua head and he goes out to be 666 00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:34,360 the Yeshua and his arm, remember it said, then his own arm brought him Yeshua, his own 667 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,480 arm brought him salvation. 668 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:44,640 So the arms of Jesus were stretched out on the cross and he became their redeemer. 669 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:50,800 So in Acts chapter 8, Philip is explaining to the Ethiopian eunuch about Jesus being 670 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:56,040 the Messiah who suffered for us in fulfillment of the description he was reading in the Isaiah 671 00:39:56,040 --> 00:40:00,060 scroll from chapter 53 because that's what he was reading. 672 00:40:00,060 --> 00:40:05,460 And he's explaining to this Ethiopian eunuch that it's Jesus. 673 00:40:05,460 --> 00:40:09,740 This is Jesus, this Isaiah 53 is talking about Jesus. 674 00:40:09,740 --> 00:40:15,680 He came as our Messiah, he came as the son of God and as they're going along in the chariot, 675 00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:18,000 here's some water. 676 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:21,620 And the Ethiopian asks to be baptized. 677 00:40:21,620 --> 00:40:28,560 And Philip says, if you believe with all your heart, you may. 678 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:32,000 Then he answered, I believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God. 679 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:38,220 So the believing that we do results in something. 680 00:40:38,220 --> 00:40:40,560 It results in an act. 681 00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:44,680 In this case, it's the act of baptism. 682 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:46,160 Maybe you haven't been baptized yet. 683 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:47,640 Have you been baptized? 684 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:48,840 I'm talking to the listeners. 685 00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:50,500 I know you have, Philip. 686 00:40:50,500 --> 00:40:53,160 And the thing is this, I've been baptized many times. 687 00:40:53,160 --> 00:41:01,380 I've found that I feel a leading of the Holy Spirit that if I have a significant moment 688 00:41:01,380 --> 00:41:07,320 in my life where my situation changes, like when I became the vice president of this ministry, 689 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:11,760 and then again, when I became the president of this ministry, I felt it was right for 690 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:13,360 me to be baptized. 691 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:19,120 It just new and fresh because it's a moment that is at the beginning of something brand 692 00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:20,120 new. 693 00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:21,120 Yeah. 694 00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:26,440 Well, when the families came up to Jerusalem for the three different feasts, they would, 695 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,440 the mikvahs were there and they'd be baptized. 696 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:30,440 Exactly. 697 00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:35,120 So if they went to the feast, all three feasts, they'd get baptized three times that year. 698 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:36,120 Exactly. 699 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:37,640 So it's not just a once. 700 00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:41,280 When I'm 12 years old, I got baptized. 701 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:43,640 But I've been baptized in Jordan. 702 00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:50,160 The same thing with you whenever walking in a food dispensation, we would get baptized. 703 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:53,760 And we baptized, I baptized many in Jordan too. 704 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:54,760 Yes. 705 00:41:54,760 --> 00:42:00,040 So that's exciting to watch the power of God hit people when they're going under the water. 706 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:01,120 Yes. 707 00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:05,500 And something happens when you're seeking the Lord with all of your heart and baptism 708 00:42:05,500 --> 00:42:10,920 kind of shuts the door to the old and opens the door to the new. 709 00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,040 And that is a sign. 710 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:18,800 One of our staff just got back from Pakistan and it's Muslim. 711 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:23,040 And that's one of the biggest things when people go to get baptized publicly. 712 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:24,040 Yeah. 713 00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:29,480 They know that could be their whole life has changed and some will probably get killed 714 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:30,480 over it. 715 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:31,480 Yeah. 716 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:32,480 Yeah. 717 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:33,480 They from their own families. 718 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:34,480 Right. 719 00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:35,480 Right. 720 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:36,480 So sometimes it's better to not do it publicly. 721 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:37,840 Yeah. 722 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:39,360 But there is something that happens. 723 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:42,360 There is a change that takes place when you're baptized. 724 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:47,720 And in the Jewish culture, one of the times that you're baptized is just prior to your 725 00:42:47,720 --> 00:42:48,980 wedding. 726 00:42:48,980 --> 00:42:53,480 So the bride and the groom are baptized right before their wedding. 727 00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:57,720 So it's like a sign of you are now the bride of Christ. 728 00:42:57,720 --> 00:42:58,720 Yeah. 729 00:42:58,720 --> 00:42:59,720 And you're the Anabaptists. 730 00:42:59,720 --> 00:43:00,720 Oh, yeah. 731 00:43:00,720 --> 00:43:01,720 Yeah. 732 00:43:01,720 --> 00:43:09,000 That's the story of, you know, from the time of Constantine, it was accepted to sprinkle 733 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:13,240 in order to be baptized because there were so many people in his army that he didn't 734 00:43:13,240 --> 00:43:16,020 have time to douse everybody underwater. 735 00:43:16,020 --> 00:43:17,200 And so they just sprinkled. 736 00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:18,200 They just made an adjustment. 737 00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:19,760 And is that where that came from? 738 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:20,760 Yeah. 739 00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:22,880 And that was how sprinkling began. 740 00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:24,920 And it came down through the church as well. 741 00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:26,000 This is how we baptize. 742 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:27,000 We do it by sprinkling. 743 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:34,120 And a tradition overtook what the reality of what immersion really is. 744 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:41,000 And when people started reading the Bible for themselves, they discovered, oh, well, 745 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:46,120 baptism is something that you do when you have become a believer. 746 00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:51,360 And you know, when they first came with that understanding, I'm not sure exactly when that 747 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:52,360 was. 748 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:54,120 It was part of the Reformation. 749 00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:59,720 The Anabaptists, Anabaptist means baptized again because you were baptized as a baby. 750 00:43:59,720 --> 00:44:01,600 You don't need it anymore. 751 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:06,000 And they said, no, this is what the scriptures are teaching that you should be baptized when 752 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,280 you are a believer. 753 00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:09,920 And that's how that came to be. 754 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:15,080 It's like be dedicated when you're young, which is what Jesus was on the eighth day, 755 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:16,080 wasn't it? 756 00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:19,000 Yeah, he was circumcised on the eighth day, and that's when he was named. 757 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:24,200 And then when the number of days of Mary's purification happened, they took him to the 758 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:25,580 temple. 759 00:44:25,580 --> 00:44:30,280 And that's when he met Anna and Simeon and they prophesied over him. 760 00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:34,480 And so, you know, there are steps that you do. 761 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:39,480 The point is, the point is follow him with all of your heart. 762 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:47,240 Luke 11, 9 through 13, Jesus says, and I tell you, ask and it will be given to you. 763 00:44:47,240 --> 00:44:49,240 Seek and you will find. 764 00:44:49,240 --> 00:44:50,720 Knock and it will be open to you. 765 00:44:50,720 --> 00:44:57,240 For everyone who asks, and I think in the Greek, it's like asks and keeps on asking. 766 00:44:57,240 --> 00:44:59,760 It's the idea of persistence. 767 00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:05,280 Everyone who asks receives and the one who seeks finds. 768 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,600 And to the one who knocks, it will be opened. 769 00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:11,280 What father among you, if his son asked for a fish, will instead of a fish, give him a 770 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:12,280 serpent? 771 00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:15,000 Or if he asks for an egg, we'll give him a scorpion. 772 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:19,640 If you then who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more 773 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:23,400 will the heavenly father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him? 774 00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:29,600 So if you are seeking the Holy Spirit, if you're seeking the baptism in the Holy Spirit, 775 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:34,220 he wants to give it to you even more than you want it. 776 00:45:34,220 --> 00:45:37,400 So just receive by faith. 777 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:40,560 Absolutely give yourself to him. 778 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:43,420 He wants to fill you to overflowing. 779 00:45:43,420 --> 00:45:49,520 He wants to impart to you things that you don't even know to ask for. 780 00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:51,000 Just keep pursuing him. 781 00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:54,360 Keep seeking, keep finding him with all your heart. 782 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:58,880 And then if you have a prodigal, maybe you have someone in your family or someone that 783 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:02,280 you love that needs to come back to God. 784 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:06,640 So here's a promise for you to pray from Jeremiah 24 seven. 785 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:08,680 Don't you love that 24 seven? 786 00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:11,960 So you can keep praying it continually 24 seven. 787 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:19,600 He says, I will give them a heart to know me that I am the Lord, that I am Yehovah and 788 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:26,240 they shall be my people and I will be their God for they shall return unto me with their 789 00:46:26,240 --> 00:46:28,280 whole heart. 790 00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:31,260 Just pray that over your loved one. 791 00:46:31,260 --> 00:46:34,600 Pray them back in because the Lord is drawing. 792 00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:38,360 He's absolutely drawing them and he will bring them in. 793 00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:39,360 Yeah. 794 00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:40,360 Hallelujah. 795 00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:41,360 Let's pray. 796 00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:49,280 Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, as we come before you, Lord, we want to have a brand 797 00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:57,000 new fresh anointing to seek you with our whole hearts, to seek you for our nation, to seek 798 00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:01,880 you for your purposes, to be accomplished in our loved ones and our families, in our 799 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:07,760 nation, our communities, Lord and for Israel, Lord, that your purposes will be accomplished 800 00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:08,760 there. 801 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:15,540 And we ask you to ignite our hearts, pour out your spirit on us with your great mighty 802 00:47:15,540 --> 00:47:21,460 outpouring that will cause us to seek you with all of our hearts, to lay aside every 803 00:47:21,460 --> 00:47:28,560 distraction to go fully for you, to live for you, to dedicate ourselves, to humble ourselves 804 00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:35,760 before you and to be filled with your spirit new and fresh in a glorious way, because that's 805 00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:40,520 what you want to do in these days to pour out your spirit on all flesh. 806 00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:46,360 Lord, we ask you to equip us as we move forward so that we will be ready to do the things 807 00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:50,240 you give us to do as you pour out your spirit on all flesh. 808 00:47:50,240 --> 00:47:55,240 In Jesus' name. 809 00:47:55,240 --> 00:47:57,960 Amen. 810 00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:03,880 If you enjoyed today's
