The Message with Pastor Chris | 05/31/2026

WEBVTT
1
00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:03.720
You open that slide up bill, give everybody an opportunity
2
00:00:03.759 --> 00:00:12.439
to read it. Kind of how I feel about New
3
00:00:12.519 --> 00:00:17.760
Year Sometimes resolutions me, just what are you implying that
4
00:00:17.879 --> 00:00:21.399
I need a change? Well, buddy, as far as I'm concerned,
5
00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:25.879
I'm perfect just the way I am. You ever feel
6
00:00:25.879 --> 00:00:28.760
that way, don't need to change. I like what I like.
7
00:00:28.839 --> 00:00:31.920
I like what I am. I am, I am boy.
8
00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:36.000
And we start using God's name for ourselves, I am, No,
9
00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:40.520
we're not. He is here, I am. And when we
10
00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:43.119
come to New Year's yet, you know how many of
11
00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:48.359
you have set up a resolution, how many of you
12
00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:51.960
want to remain the same as you were last year?
13
00:00:53.840 --> 00:00:58.600
How many want to grow? Want to grow? So there's
14
00:00:58.719 --> 00:01:02.679
changes that you do desire, and God calls us to that.
15
00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:08.000
Today's title of the messages be careful not to forget,
16
00:01:08.879 --> 00:01:14.120
not to forget God in twenty eleven. Have you ever prayed,
17
00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:16.719
Lord Boy, help me to remember you this year, this
18
00:01:16.840 --> 00:01:21.400
new year? Probably not. We don't tend to think that way.
19
00:01:21.439 --> 00:01:24.519
We kind of just go on and we think, well,
20
00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:30.640
it's just another day. But it's another opportunity, another opportunity
21
00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:34.159
for us to set our lives before Him, another opportunity
22
00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:36.480
for us to put our trust in him and to
23
00:01:36.519 --> 00:01:40.159
ask him to guide and direct our steps. So if
24
00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:44.079
you don't do that, then the title of today's message
25
00:01:44.359 --> 00:01:49.319
might speak to you. Be careful not to forget. It's
26
00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:51.400
easy to forget God. It's easy to kind of move
27
00:01:51.439 --> 00:01:53.640
on in our own strength, and we kind of get
28
00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:55.519
on a role in life and do the things that
29
00:01:55.519 --> 00:01:57.879
we want to do. And boy, I think, oh, I've
30
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:01.840
got it together. Nothing, no need for change here. But
31
00:02:01.879 --> 00:02:04.920
the reality is we must be careful least we forget.
32
00:02:04.959 --> 00:02:08.439
So give you another opportunity to stand. And we're going
33
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:13.080
to read God's word Deuteronomy chapter six. I'm going to
34
00:02:13.159 --> 00:02:17.360
read most of it out of the New Living translation.
35
00:02:19.159 --> 00:02:21.840
You can read it out of yours, and the New
36
00:02:21.840 --> 00:02:26.800
Living I think makes it a little clearer. Sometimes listen closely,
37
00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:31.639
that's the first message. Listen up. Charles Stanley would say, listen, now,
38
00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:35.400
listen up, Listen again, because we have a hard time
39
00:02:35.479 --> 00:02:40.120
paying attention, So listen closely. Israel, you can write your
40
00:02:40.199 --> 00:02:43.800
name there and be careful to obey. Then all will
41
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:46.639
go well with you, and you will have many children
42
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:49.840
in the land flowing with milk and honey, just as
43
00:02:49.879 --> 00:02:53.319
the Lord, the God of your ancestors, promised you. Listen,
44
00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:57.560
O Israel, the Lord is our God, the Lord alone.
45
00:02:57.599 --> 00:02:59.639
And you must love the Lord your God with all
46
00:02:59.680 --> 00:03:04.240
your heart, all your soul, and all your strength. And
47
00:03:04.319 --> 00:03:08.280
you must commit yourself wholeheartedly to these commands which I
48
00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:14.520
am giving you today. Keep them first in your own hearts,
49
00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:20.719
your own minds, Repeat them again and again to your children,
50
00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:23.919
Talk about them when you're at home, when you're on
51
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:27.240
the road, when you're going to bed, when you're getting up.
52
00:03:27.800 --> 00:03:29.960
Tie them to your hands, and wear them on your
53
00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:33.639
foreheads as reminders. Write them on the doorpost of your
54
00:03:33.639 --> 00:03:36.599
house and on your gates. The Lord your God will
55
00:03:36.639 --> 00:03:39.680
soon bring you into a land he swore to give
56
00:03:39.719 --> 00:03:43.039
to you when he made a vow to your ancestors, Abraham,
57
00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:46.840
Isaac and Jacob. It is a land with large, prosperous
58
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:51.080
cities that you did not build. Houses will be richly
59
00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:54.360
stocked with goods you did not produce. You will draw
60
00:03:54.479 --> 00:03:57.560
water from cisterns that you did not dig, and you
61
00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:01.000
will eat from vineyard and olive trees you did not plant.
62
00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:04.439
When you have eaten your fill in this land, be
63
00:04:04.639 --> 00:04:09.360
careful not to forget the Lord who rescued you from
64
00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:13.360
slavery in the land of Egypt. You shall fear only
65
00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:16.000
the Lord your God, and you shall worship him and
66
00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:19.120
swear by his name. You shall follow. You shall not
67
00:04:19.279 --> 00:04:22.839
follow other gods. Any other gods are the people who
68
00:04:22.839 --> 00:04:25.920
surround you. For the Lord your God in the midst
69
00:04:25.920 --> 00:04:29.439
of you is a jealous god. Otherwise to anger the
70
00:04:29.480 --> 00:04:32.720
Lord your God will be kindled against you, and he
71
00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:35.279
will wipe you off the face of the earth. You
72
00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:37.759
shall not put the Lord your God to the test,
73
00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:42.000
as you have tested him at Misha, our Father and God,
74
00:04:42.079 --> 00:04:46.079
we ask that you would speak to our hearts our minds, Lord,
75
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:49.160
that we would set our face towards you, and Lord,
76
00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:54.000
that we would listen to your word, that we would
77
00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:56.639
obey your word, that we would cherish and love you
78
00:04:57.240 --> 00:05:00.240
more than we cherish the things of life around us.
79
00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:04.160
Oh Lord, speak to us by your spirit. Lord, take
80
00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:08.800
the interruptions the things that our minds are focused at,
81
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:12.480
our heart is focused on already this year, and Lord,
82
00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:15.079
help us to set them aside, that we might pay
83
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:17.879
close attention to the words you have for us. For
84
00:05:17.959 --> 00:05:27.600
I pray in Jesus name, Amen, please be seated. We
85
00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:32.959
face what I think is possibly one of the most
86
00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:36.879
dangerous times in Christian history. I think that's what we
87
00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:39.800
face today. And you might think, Boy, yeah, Man, that
88
00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:43.759
world is really pushing in and pressuring on Christians. Man,
89
00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:47.439
martyrdom is on the rise around the world, and even
90
00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:50.639
here in the United States. Boy, we have the politically
91
00:05:50.759 --> 00:05:54.199
correct patrol that wants to make sure that, boy, everything
92
00:05:54.279 --> 00:05:59.079
is politically correct. I don't fear those things. I don't
93
00:05:59.079 --> 00:06:03.079
fear the outlaw of Christianity, although it may come. It
94
00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:06.759
may come indeed, And I'm not speaking about the threat
95
00:06:06.759 --> 00:06:09.600
of facing death or being tortured for the name of Jesus,
96
00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:14.920
although that as well might come in our future. The
97
00:06:14.959 --> 00:06:19.319
threat that I speak about, possibly it is the fact
98
00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:24.079
that we might, despite that, we might forget the blessings
99
00:06:24.079 --> 00:06:28.279
of God that we have enjoyed. Boy, Gloria made appointment.
100
00:06:28.639 --> 00:06:32.439
God has helped us to go above budget. A man,
101
00:06:32.920 --> 00:06:36.920
the budget committee, we've been real concerned about that and
102
00:06:37.079 --> 00:06:40.439
looking at a future budget. How do we budget when boy,
103
00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:43.800
so many people out of work and what money is tight?
104
00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:49.199
And yet God, in his incredible mercy has provided above
105
00:06:49.240 --> 00:06:52.279
that we might think we've done it on our own.
106
00:06:52.399 --> 00:06:55.439
We might think hallelujah, Let's have a heyday, Let's throw
107
00:06:55.439 --> 00:07:00.600
a party. Man. God has provided we can spend, spend, spend.
108
00:07:01.480 --> 00:07:04.040
We do that sometimes, don't we. We do it in
109
00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:06.759
our personal lives and we kind of just take control
110
00:07:06.959 --> 00:07:12.199
and we want to run with it in spite of
111
00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:15.600
His providential care. I think we're in danger of taking
112
00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:20.040
God for granted and possibly forgetting our dependence upon Him.
113
00:07:20.920 --> 00:07:23.720
And so we're challenged with a new year. Will we
114
00:07:23.800 --> 00:07:26.600
set our heart? Will we set our face towards God?
115
00:07:27.399 --> 00:07:29.639
And that's not just for you, that's for me as well.
116
00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:33.199
Will I set my heart and my face towards God?
117
00:07:33.839 --> 00:07:37.120
Will I be able to say God and God only
118
00:07:38.600 --> 00:07:42.079
in my life? So I invite you to ponder some
119
00:07:42.120 --> 00:07:46.000
things that God has done, not right now in your
120
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:47.639
own life, but I want you to ponder what He's
121
00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:52.040
done in UBC University Baptist is life. God is freed
122
00:07:52.199 --> 00:07:55.759
everybody here from the bondage just sin, unless we desire
123
00:07:55.800 --> 00:07:59.040
to go back to the bondage of sin and Nick crazy,
124
00:07:59.079 --> 00:08:01.720
He's freed us in Christ. If you've asked Christ to
125
00:08:01.720 --> 00:08:04.800
be your Lord and savior, you have been given freedom
126
00:08:04.839 --> 00:08:07.560
from sin. And Paul then says why do you go
127
00:08:07.720 --> 00:08:12.199
back to the yoc of slavery because it's kind of comfortable.
128
00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:15.560
Sometimes we kind of know what to expect because we
129
00:08:15.680 --> 00:08:18.040
kind of get into a habit of thinking I can
130
00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:21.439
do it all on my own. Least we forget about
131
00:08:21.480 --> 00:08:26.480
God in our lives. He provided for the upkeep of
132
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:29.920
this building, and that's not a small task when you
133
00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:32.879
think about that. He provided the money for all the
134
00:08:32.919 --> 00:08:36.399
remodeling that we have been doing over the past fourteen years.
135
00:08:36.399 --> 00:08:40.399
We've been doing a lot of remodeling. He gave us,
136
00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:43.519
through Rachel, the money to pay off the building loan,
137
00:08:45.679 --> 00:08:48.799
and then he provided you and others with the talents
138
00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:52.039
and gifts and ability to get the work done. You
139
00:08:52.120 --> 00:08:54.799
realize how blessed we are with people with talents, with
140
00:08:54.919 --> 00:08:58.320
gifts and ability. And you know, we kind of think, well,
141
00:08:59.039 --> 00:09:01.159
the Christmas program, I mean, all the people that played
142
00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:06.519
the piano. Isn't that pretty cool that God provided those
143
00:09:06.600 --> 00:09:09.840
people with talents, gifts and abilities. And then he provided
144
00:09:09.879 --> 00:09:15.120
the piano, He provided the keyboard, well, he provided the
145
00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:18.759
sound system that we use here. God has continued to
146
00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:25.480
provide and he's provided things that we don't deserve, and
147
00:09:25.559 --> 00:09:29.200
then He has been providing for us each personally. He
148
00:09:29.279 --> 00:09:32.720
has been providing for our families as well as our
149
00:09:32.759 --> 00:09:36.799
benevolence funds to help those in need. And on top
150
00:09:36.840 --> 00:09:40.480
of all that, then he provides more than this church
151
00:09:40.519 --> 00:09:46.480
can can give to go over budget. Not many churches
152
00:09:46.519 --> 00:09:49.759
today are at that point. I was shocked when Gloria
153
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:55.399
told me what had happened. Shocked that boy, not that
154
00:09:55.440 --> 00:09:58.360
I don't believe God can provide, but that he would
155
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:02.159
provide for us. And I think maybe that's because we're
156
00:10:02.200 --> 00:10:06.200
trying to be good stewards, because we're trying to walk
157
00:10:06.240 --> 00:10:09.320
this walk that He has set before us. So, man,
158
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:11.720
I'm ready, and I've been giving God some moopa glories
159
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:14.879
all week long. Man, I think, oh God, you are
160
00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:19.720
just incredible that you would do all that. Surely, surely
161
00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:25.679
he is worthy of your thanks. Is he not worthy
162
00:10:25.679 --> 00:10:30.360
of your thanks? Has he failed to provide for the
163
00:10:30.360 --> 00:10:36.000
different things of your life? Has he chastised you some
164
00:10:37.320 --> 00:10:40.759
because you forget? You know, when God chastises it's because
165
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:44.639
usually we've forgotten him and he allows the consequences of
166
00:10:44.679 --> 00:10:48.840
our actions to catch up with us. Surely he is
167
00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:52.000
worthy of our thanks, our praise, and surely he is
168
00:10:52.039 --> 00:10:56.519
worth acknowledging that to the world around us. Oh boy,
169
00:10:56.559 --> 00:10:59.759
that's a rub I guess a little more difficult there,
170
00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:03.720
that acknowledging what God has done to the world around.
171
00:11:03.919 --> 00:11:06.639
Yet it's so easy to say, praise the Lord man,
172
00:11:06.720 --> 00:11:10.440
you know God did. But we so fear the world
173
00:11:10.480 --> 00:11:15.159
around We so fear the political correct police. We so
174
00:11:15.440 --> 00:11:18.960
fear that we might not be accepted by those that
175
00:11:18.960 --> 00:11:23.799
we want to be accepted by, and we forget about God,
176
00:11:24.799 --> 00:11:29.039
and we forget about His provisions for our lives. And
177
00:11:29.120 --> 00:11:32.960
yet and we sometimes, like the Israelites, we forget that
178
00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:35.759
it's not only in the valley that we have difficulty,
179
00:11:35.919 --> 00:11:37.519
because folks, I'm gonna tell you we're kind of on
180
00:11:37.559 --> 00:11:40.679
the mountaintop right now. Boy, we ended the last year
181
00:11:40.720 --> 00:11:44.240
and more money came in than budget. We can't believe
182
00:11:44.279 --> 00:11:46.320
the amount of people that we have helped this year,
183
00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:49.639
and that we have helped in just the past three weeks.
184
00:11:49.799 --> 00:11:52.840
We have given a lot of money to people to help.
185
00:11:53.279 --> 00:11:55.120
And it's kind of crazy because when Peggy and I
186
00:11:55.240 --> 00:11:57.840
were talking about it a while ago, she said, man,
187
00:11:57.879 --> 00:12:00.480
you know, Pastor, we gave that out and that money
188
00:12:00.519 --> 00:12:04.039
came back in the next week. You can't out and
189
00:12:04.120 --> 00:12:08.960
give God. Oh, but we so worry. We're so worried
190
00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:11.200
that he might take more than we want to give,
191
00:12:11.799 --> 00:12:14.200
that he might take more and we might not have enough.
192
00:12:15.159 --> 00:12:20.159
And so we forget. And it's easy on that mountaintop sometimes,
193
00:12:20.200 --> 00:12:23.960
because all too often it becomes hard for us to
194
00:12:24.120 --> 00:12:28.480
listen when all the blessings are shouting around us. Man, blessings, boy,
195
00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:32.120
God is providing, and we're on this mountaintop, and somehow,
196
00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:36.480
some way we begin to think we've done it, and
197
00:12:36.600 --> 00:12:40.320
we say, look what I've achieved, Look what we've achieved. Man,
198
00:12:40.440 --> 00:12:44.159
We've arrived. And every time I think I arrived, I
199
00:12:44.320 --> 00:12:50.519
really begin to realize that I'm beginning again. I'm beginning
200
00:12:50.600 --> 00:12:57.200
the journey again. And so sometimes we think are thankful
201
00:12:57.240 --> 00:13:01.000
for blessings, but we forget the blesser. We forget the
202
00:13:01.080 --> 00:13:03.799
one who has blessed us. We forget the one who
203
00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:07.080
has boy kept us safe even when we have been
204
00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:12.159
outside of his will. On this first Sunday of twenty eleven,
205
00:13:12.240 --> 00:13:16.799
it's my prayer that we will renew our commitments. Are
206
00:13:16.840 --> 00:13:19.320
you ready to do that today, fell pastor? I don't
207
00:13:19.320 --> 00:13:22.919
need to renew my commitment. I'm committed and I hear
208
00:13:23.000 --> 00:13:25.240
that from believers over and over, and I think, Man, Lord,
209
00:13:25.279 --> 00:13:28.159
there must be something wrong with me. I'm a pastor
210
00:13:28.159 --> 00:13:31.559
and I have to commit myself every day because every
211
00:13:31.639 --> 00:13:34.799
day it gets to be a struggle. Something might happen,
212
00:13:34.919 --> 00:13:38.480
something distracts, something gets in the way, somebody steps on
213
00:13:38.559 --> 00:13:41.519
my big toe and hits me in my arm, or
214
00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:50.360
does something crazy, and we forget. So I pray that
215
00:13:50.480 --> 00:13:53.600
we will renew our commitments, that we will be on guard.
216
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:58.720
Least we forget, as the King James puts it, least
217
00:13:58.919 --> 00:14:05.360
we forget like the israel Israelites did. There are some
218
00:14:05.559 --> 00:14:08.200
directions in this passage that we've looked at that I
219
00:14:08.320 --> 00:14:11.399
think will challenge us. And you have to decide, are
220
00:14:11.440 --> 00:14:15.320
you ready to accept the challenge of God today? Are
221
00:14:15.360 --> 00:14:18.000
you ready to step out and come and say, boy Lord,
222
00:14:18.200 --> 00:14:19.840
you know what. This is a great time for an altar,
223
00:14:19.919 --> 00:14:22.080
called great time to not be afraid to come forward
224
00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:25.039
today to say, you know what. I want to be
225
00:14:25.159 --> 00:14:28.600
the first one to recommit. I want to be the one.
226
00:14:28.799 --> 00:14:30.879
I don't want anything to get in the way of
227
00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:35.799
me humbling myself before God and committing twenty eleven, and
228
00:14:35.919 --> 00:14:39.279
not only twenty eleven, but committing from this day forward
229
00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:45.240
that I will not forget my God. On your outline
230
00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:50.159
Roman numer number one, we must challenge the normal or
231
00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:54.639
the nominal not normal, the nominal Christianity. We must challenge
232
00:14:54.960 --> 00:14:59.879
to live above mediocrity Verses five and six. It tells
233
00:15:00.159 --> 00:15:04.080
that it's important for us to remember the amplified reads.
234
00:15:04.480 --> 00:15:06.799
You must love the Lord your God with all your heart,
235
00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:10.159
all your soul, all your strength. And you must commit
236
00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:14.279
yourself wholeheartedly to these commands which I am giving you today.
237
00:15:14.519 --> 00:15:22.120
Keep them first, keep them first in your own heart. Well,
238
00:15:22.200 --> 00:15:25.000
there's a challenge we want our kids to but we
239
00:15:25.159 --> 00:15:27.600
need to keep them first in our own heart, our
240
00:15:27.679 --> 00:15:32.080
own minds. We must challenge the tendency A on your
241
00:15:32.120 --> 00:15:35.080
outline to have a divided heart, because we have a
242
00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:37.600
tendency to let our hearts get divided. We have a
243
00:15:37.720 --> 00:15:40.000
tendency to want these things over here. I want to
244
00:15:40.279 --> 00:15:42.559
follow God, but boy, I got to go after this
245
00:15:42.679 --> 00:15:45.960
while I get got a chance to. This is my opportunity,
246
00:15:46.440 --> 00:15:50.200
and we woit. Sometimes you serve God and we just
247
00:15:50.320 --> 00:15:52.559
kind of do it in our own own power, our
248
00:15:52.639 --> 00:15:56.840
own strength, and God challenges us to look at our
249
00:15:56.919 --> 00:16:01.799
heart condition interesting Most of the verses that we're going
250
00:16:01.879 --> 00:16:06.919
to look at are spoken to his people Jeremiah twenty
251
00:16:07.039 --> 00:16:09.559
nine thirteen. There'll be some of them, will be up
252
00:16:09.600 --> 00:16:12.759
here on the wall. You will seek me and find
253
00:16:12.840 --> 00:16:15.639
me when. Well, if you got your own bibles open,
254
00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:19.600
you can underline that when you search for Me with
255
00:16:19.799 --> 00:16:23.600
all your heart, that when is important. It implies that
256
00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:27.279
you know, too often there's a lapse in our heart,
257
00:16:27.360 --> 00:16:31.559
there's a lapse in our commitment. It implies that because
258
00:16:31.600 --> 00:16:34.679
it has that word when in there. Boy, when you
259
00:16:34.759 --> 00:16:36.320
seek me, and if you don't seek Me with all
260
00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:42.159
your heart, well, then accept what comes. Accept the consequences
261
00:16:43.000 --> 00:16:45.840
of not seeking Me with all your heart. And folks,
262
00:16:45.840 --> 00:16:52.120
there's consequences. Life has them. Life has them Jeremiah seventeen nine.
263
00:16:52.679 --> 00:16:55.759
The heart is more deceitful than all else and is
264
00:16:55.919 --> 00:16:59.799
desperately sick. Who can understand it? We have to look
265
00:16:59.799 --> 00:17:02.879
at our heart condition. What is your heart condition? Today?
266
00:17:03.360 --> 00:17:06.640
God is not speaking to the lost here. He's speaking
267
00:17:06.720 --> 00:17:11.119
to you and me to his people. And sometimes we
268
00:17:11.240 --> 00:17:13.960
want to say, why God's speaking to the lost? We
269
00:17:14.079 --> 00:17:16.039
don't look at that and think, Man, can my heart
270
00:17:16.119 --> 00:17:19.640
be deceitful? Have I been deceitful to myself and God.
271
00:17:20.519 --> 00:17:26.200
Have I played the game of Christianity. Maybe this New
272
00:17:26.279 --> 00:17:29.440
Year's is a time to start setting those things aside
273
00:17:30.079 --> 00:17:34.799
and really come and really dedicate anew and afresh. It's
274
00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:39.039
not only a one time dedication. I find it's dedicating
275
00:17:39.160 --> 00:17:42.920
over and over Hosea ten, verse two. Their heart is
276
00:17:43.000 --> 00:17:48.319
faithless again to his people. Now they must bear their guilt.
277
00:17:48.880 --> 00:17:51.519
The Lord will break down their altars and destroy their
278
00:17:51.599 --> 00:17:55.640
sacred places. Maybe God's about breaking down the things that
279
00:17:55.720 --> 00:17:59.119
you have raised up before him today. Maybe He's trying
280
00:17:59.160 --> 00:18:01.119
to break them down so that you will look and
281
00:18:01.240 --> 00:18:05.559
see God in his wonder and his majesty. See God
282
00:18:05.680 --> 00:18:08.519
that he has been there carrying you along the way.
283
00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:13.920
Proverbs twenty eight to six. He who trusts in his
284
00:18:14.039 --> 00:18:17.559
own heart is a fool, but he who walks wisely
285
00:18:18.119 --> 00:18:21.319
will be delivered. If I've been playing the fool in
286
00:18:21.400 --> 00:18:26.079
my relationship with God, it's time to recommit, time to rededicate,
287
00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:30.720
to walk anew and to be delivered. Be on your outline.
288
00:18:30.759 --> 00:18:33.839
We must challenge the tendency to be as a king,
289
00:18:34.000 --> 00:18:38.039
James says, slothful New American will use that as well,
290
00:18:38.720 --> 00:18:41.599
or to be a sluggard, which means that we need
291
00:18:41.680 --> 00:18:46.200
to challenge the tendency to be inactive in our soul
292
00:18:46.839 --> 00:18:49.240
and active in our Christian walk. Hey, I became a
293
00:18:49.319 --> 00:18:52.839
Christian years ago. What have you done since? Well, nothing
294
00:18:52.920 --> 00:18:56.519
I accepted, and that's all you need. Folks were commanded
295
00:18:56.599 --> 00:18:59.680
to walk daily, were commanded to bear the cross, were
296
00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:03.599
commit to be His disciples, were commanded to go into
297
00:19:03.680 --> 00:19:06.519
all the world and share the good news. And if
298
00:19:06.519 --> 00:19:09.880
we're not doing those things, we're a sluggard. We're slothful
299
00:19:09.960 --> 00:19:13.480
in our walk with God. Judges eighteen, verse nine. The
300
00:19:13.559 --> 00:19:17.279
King James, and they said, arise that we may go
301
00:19:17.440 --> 00:19:20.480
up against them, for we shall have seen the land,
302
00:19:20.559 --> 00:19:24.079
and behold it is very good. And are ye still
303
00:19:25.079 --> 00:19:27.440
be not slothful to go and to enter the to
304
00:19:27.680 --> 00:19:30.400
possess the land? Man God? They had given them the
305
00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:37.400
land over and over, and they forgot God. They became slothful.
306
00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:39.799
They kind of took it on themselves. They thought they
307
00:19:39.880 --> 00:19:41.640
had arrived that they can do it all in their
308
00:19:41.640 --> 00:19:46.680
own strength, and they forgot. And we come again, be
309
00:19:46.839 --> 00:19:51.119
careful not to forget. You See, God knows our tendencies.
310
00:19:51.319 --> 00:19:53.920
He knows we're but flesh. He knows we're but dust,
311
00:19:54.519 --> 00:19:57.640
and he knows that we have a tendency to sin.
312
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:04.359
He reminds us to remember him. He reminds us to
313
00:20:04.480 --> 00:20:09.359
not forget. Proverbs thirteen four. The soul of the sluggard
314
00:20:09.440 --> 00:20:13.079
craves and gets nothing. And I looked at that, and
315
00:20:13.200 --> 00:20:15.720
I thought about that over and over, and I think
316
00:20:15.759 --> 00:20:18.480
about Christmas. I think about all the gifts, and I
317
00:20:18.519 --> 00:20:20.880
think about how, boy, we got so many things. We
318
00:20:20.920 --> 00:20:23.240
don't know what to play with. And so we play
319
00:20:23.279 --> 00:20:24.960
with this, we play with that, and after a while
320
00:20:25.039 --> 00:20:26.880
we kind of forget about it and we go to
321
00:20:26.960 --> 00:20:31.039
what we played with before. And we can do that
322
00:20:31.119 --> 00:20:33.920
in so many ways. The soul of the sluggard craves
323
00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:37.319
and gets nothing, but the soul of the diligent is
324
00:20:37.480 --> 00:20:45.200
made fat. God provides for his people Proverbs six six.
325
00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:49.079
Go to the anto sluggard and observe her ways and
326
00:20:49.359 --> 00:20:55.480
be wise, because the ant stores up. The ant prepares
327
00:20:55.599 --> 00:20:58.519
for the future, and that I need to prepare for
328
00:20:58.599 --> 00:21:01.000
the future. And as a believer, I prepare for the
329
00:21:01.119 --> 00:21:04.039
future by being in his word, by walking the walk.
330
00:21:05.480 --> 00:21:08.599
Proverb six'. Nine how long will you lie, down o?
331
00:21:08.720 --> 00:21:13.480
Sluggard when will you? Arise from your, sleep and he
332
00:21:13.640 --> 00:21:17.240

356
00:23:01.960 --> 00:23:05.240
Scripture that's not a lot that we might, do but
357
00:23:05.359 --> 00:23:07.880
begin to really imprint it on our, hearts so that
358
00:23:08.240 --> 00:23:10.480
The Holy spirit will pull that. Up in our times
359
00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:13.359
attesting and times when things aren't going the way we
360
00:23:13.480 --> 00:23:15.640
want them to. Go and the times that we have
361
00:23:15.759 --> 00:23:18.839
begun to, forget The Holy spirit can pull them up and, say,
362
00:23:19.200 --> 00:23:23.079
here feast on this and watch my hand of. Provision
363
00:23:25.680 --> 00:23:30.160
First kings eight sixty. One let your heart therefore be
364
00:23:30.319 --> 00:23:34.160
wholly devoted to The, lord Our, god to walk in
365
00:23:34.240 --> 00:23:37.519
his statues and to keep his commandments as at this.
366
00:23:37.839 --> 00:23:42.119
Day that passage comes out Of solomon's dedication of The,
367
00:23:42.200 --> 00:23:46.000
Temple First. Kings if you look At First, kings chapter,
368
00:23:46.200 --> 00:23:50.720
eight and then specifically at verses fifty six through sixty, one,
369
00:23:51.480 --> 00:23:53.880
boy we see That god has given them. Peace god
370
00:23:53.960 --> 00:23:59.279
has given them. Rest the people were keeping his good
371
00:23:59.319 --> 00:24:03.160
promises That he had given The, moses and So solomon
372
00:24:03.240 --> 00:24:06.799
then reminds the. People he expresses four of his desires
373
00:24:06.880 --> 00:24:09.880
and Reminding god and the people as he prays out
374
00:24:09.960 --> 00:24:14.799
loud that The lord will Be solomon's be With solomon's
375
00:24:14.880 --> 00:24:18.519
generation as he had been with his. Forefathers, well where
376
00:24:18.559 --> 00:24:20.519
have we come to in The United? States are we
377
00:24:20.640 --> 00:24:24.880
where our forefathers? Were is our dedication to The lord
378
00:24:24.960 --> 00:24:28.559
where our forefathers was? At not at? All we have
379
00:24:29.039 --> 00:24:34.440
slipped so far behind in a. Way maybe it's time
380
00:24:34.559 --> 00:24:38.039
to rededicate ourselves to the things that our forefathers had
381
00:24:38.119 --> 00:24:41.039
dedicated themselves. To maybe we need to read some of
382
00:24:41.079 --> 00:24:44.640
the things that they did and understand their commitment to The.
383
00:24:44.720 --> 00:24:52.799
Lord That god would give his people the. Will this
384
00:24:53.000 --> 00:24:56.319
is his, Prayer and is this not the prayer that
385
00:24:56.400 --> 00:24:59.240
we need for? Today That god would give his people
386
00:24:59.319 --> 00:25:02.279
the will to war walk in all his. Ways, OH
387
00:25:02.359 --> 00:25:04.680
i pray that for you and me that we will
388
00:25:04.720 --> 00:25:07.720
have the, will the, desire because if we don't have the,
389
00:25:07.799 --> 00:25:10.519
desire we're not going to do. It and if we
390
00:25:10.559 --> 00:25:13.480
don't commit our will To god's, will we're not going
391
00:25:13.559 --> 00:25:16.680
to do. It because our will is pretty, strong and
392
00:25:16.799 --> 00:25:18.920
our will likes what it likes and wants what it.
393
00:25:19.039 --> 00:25:23.279
Wants but are we willing to commit our will To
394
00:25:23.440 --> 00:25:27.119
god and, Say, god what do you? Want what do
395
00:25:27.200 --> 00:25:32.440
you desire for? Me and then he says that the
396
00:25:32.519 --> 00:25:37.240
Request solomon had made in his prayer would remain close
397
00:25:37.359 --> 00:25:41.119
To god's heart day to. Day, Boy, god don't you forget.
398
00:25:41.240 --> 00:25:45.720
Us keep these requests. Close, lord challenge, us convict, us
399
00:25:46.160 --> 00:25:49.359
weigh on. Us let your kinda glory fall on, us
400
00:25:50.200 --> 00:25:53.920
that we will not, forget that we will know that
401
00:25:54.039 --> 00:25:59.960
you are. There solomon ultimately desire that all the people
402
00:26:00.279 --> 00:26:03.839
of the earth would know the Mighty god of The.
403
00:26:03.960 --> 00:26:07.319
God yeahweh His, god that know that he is the
404
00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:10.720
only True. God and all the false gods, that, boy
405
00:26:10.799 --> 00:26:12.640
we think are going to give us peace and, rest
406
00:26:12.720 --> 00:26:16.200
to make us happy and give us, joy are just a.
407
00:26:16.279 --> 00:26:22.240
Fellasy they're a shadow of the Real. God why in
408
00:26:22.440 --> 00:26:25.559
order that all for all this to take, Place solomon
409
00:26:25.640 --> 00:26:29.200
reminded the people that they must be wholly. Devoted they
410
00:26:29.319 --> 00:26:34.759
must be wholly. Devoted if, Not god promised them that
411
00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:39.200
they would receive the repercussions of their. Behavior and as
412
00:26:39.279 --> 00:26:40.960
one who has received a lot of that in his,
413
00:26:41.039 --> 00:26:43.839
LIFE i don't want to receive it. Anymore i'm going
414
00:26:43.920 --> 00:26:49.759
to walk the walk fully committed to The, lord obedient
415
00:26:49.839 --> 00:26:54.039
to his. Word and yet we know That solomon eventually failed.
416
00:26:54.160 --> 00:26:57.319
Himself that was his, Prayer and what does that tell?
417
00:26:57.400 --> 00:27:00.519
Us sometimes we pray these kind of, prayers and yet
418
00:27:00.599 --> 00:27:02.880
we think we've, arrived or we think we're better because
419
00:27:02.920 --> 00:27:05.559
somebody else has really blown, it and we kind of
420
00:27:05.599 --> 00:27:07.680
look at. Ourselves, man we feel pretty good Where i'm.
421
00:27:07.720 --> 00:27:10.920
At i'm not as bad as, them and we've already blown.
422
00:27:10.960 --> 00:27:14.839
It we've already lost it when we think we're better
423
00:27:14.960 --> 00:27:17.599
than or when we think we don't sin as, much
424
00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:23.920
because sin is sin in the eyes Of. God have we?
425
00:27:24.079 --> 00:27:29.799
Arrived we all too often have good, intentions but, somehow
426
00:27:30.279 --> 00:27:33.119
all to often we lose sight of What god has,
427
00:27:33.279 --> 00:27:37.000
done What god is, doing and What god wants to,
428
00:27:37.079 --> 00:27:42.359
do and we. Stagnate and if you've ever been around
429
00:27:42.440 --> 00:27:48.119
a stagnant pool of, water it's just quite. Disgusting it's
430
00:27:48.200 --> 00:27:51.640
not worth. Drinking it won't nourish, you but it surely
431
00:27:51.720 --> 00:27:54.480
will make you. Sick and every time we stagnate in
432
00:27:54.519 --> 00:27:58.400
Our christian, walk we become, sick become sick in, heart
433
00:27:58.559 --> 00:28:01.839
sick in, mind embrace other things that aren't the things
434
00:28:01.880 --> 00:28:08.359
That god would have us. Embrace in twenty, eleven we
435
00:28:08.480 --> 00:28:11.839
need to pray for our heart, condition to pray about
436
00:28:11.880 --> 00:28:14.720
our heart, condition to pray that our hearts will stay
437
00:28:15.160 --> 00:28:18.319
focused On, god will stay obedient To. God if, not
438
00:28:18.759 --> 00:28:22.880
we'll be in danger of. Forgetting sounds fifty one to.
439
00:28:22.960 --> 00:28:27.240
Ten david, psalm and what does he? Say And david?
440
00:28:27.359 --> 00:28:31.079
Sinned And david right sounds fifty one after he's, caught
441
00:28:31.920 --> 00:28:35.599
after his sin has become, public and he, says creating
442
00:28:35.680 --> 00:28:39.440
me a clean, HEART O, god and renew a steadfast
443
00:28:39.559 --> 00:28:42.519
spirit within. Me maybe that needs to be your prayer
444
00:28:42.559 --> 00:28:45.759
today as well as my, own, Boy, lord creating me
445
00:28:45.839 --> 00:28:48.319
a clean. Heart clean me, Up Oh, god BECAUSE i
446

00:28:53.160 --> 00:28:57.960
me strengthen, Me, lord renew a steadfast, spirit a committed,
448
00:28:58.039 --> 00:29:02.279
spirit one that's not ab of the world, around one
449
00:29:02.319 --> 00:29:06.759
that doesn't have to buy into political, correctness one that's
450
00:29:06.839 --> 00:29:10.039
not afraid to, SAY, whoa look What god has. Done
451
00:29:11.599 --> 00:29:13.279
AND i only listened a few of the things That
452
00:29:13.359 --> 00:29:16.839
god has done in The University baptist these past, years
453
00:29:17.039 --> 00:29:19.680
just a, Few, man there is so much more That
454
00:29:19.799 --> 00:29:22.759
he has done in our, lives so many things that
455
00:29:22.839 --> 00:29:26.039
we forget to give him thanks. For and then when
456
00:29:26.079 --> 00:29:28.119
things aren't going the way we want them to, go
457
00:29:28.240 --> 00:29:31.400
we complain About. God, god where are? You why did
458
00:29:31.440 --> 00:29:37.039
you let this? Happen And, Solomon, boy he comes to
459
00:29:37.079 --> 00:29:40.200
that point later in. Life he realized that his life
460
00:29:40.279 --> 00:29:42.799
became the life that he had. Made it's not the
461
00:29:42.880 --> 00:29:46.440
Life god wanted to, make but all the blessings he had,
462
00:29:46.519 --> 00:29:49.279
received all that that was going. On, boy after a
463
00:29:49.319 --> 00:29:53.000
while he just kind of took it for, granted and
464
00:29:53.119 --> 00:29:56.039
he became slothful in His christian. Life is believe your
465
00:29:56.119 --> 00:30:01.640
Life one wife wasn't. Enough he had to have. More,
466
00:30:02.960 --> 00:30:06.279
MAN i don't know how he kept. UP i think
467
00:30:06.319 --> 00:30:09.279
about that over and. Over, Man how confused and what
468
00:30:09.440 --> 00:30:11.799
led him? Away because he had lost sight Of god
469
00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:13.640
and he was looking for a, woman and some might
470
00:30:13.720 --> 00:30:16.160
look for a man to make them. Happy and so
471
00:30:16.279 --> 00:30:18.960
he married seven hundred times and plus all the. Concubines,
472
00:30:19.000 --> 00:30:21.960
man you, know and he couldn't be. Happy and so
473
00:30:22.119 --> 00:30:27.119
he Writes, ecclesiastics vanity of, vanity all is. Vanity, WELL
474
00:30:27.160 --> 00:30:29.559
i collect all the riches of the world around me
475
00:30:30.480 --> 00:30:34.839
and still be. POOR i can collect all the people
476
00:30:34.920 --> 00:30:36.680
around me there tell me how GREAT i am and
477
00:30:36.720 --> 00:30:42.000
how much they love, me and still be lonely Without.
478
00:30:42.079 --> 00:30:47.119
God and so he calls us to pray about our
479
00:30:47.200 --> 00:30:51.200
heart condition First chronicles twenty eight to nine from The
480
00:30:51.240 --> 00:30:55.279
New Jerusalem. Bible but, You, solomon my, son know The
481
00:30:55.359 --> 00:30:58.480
god of your father and serve him with an undivided
482
00:30:58.559 --> 00:31:02.480
heart and a willing. Mind That's david's prayer for his,
483
00:31:02.640 --> 00:31:06.039
son boy with an undivided, heart and then with a
484
00:31:06.160 --> 00:31:12.480
willing mind THAT i want to live this way For
485
00:31:12.640 --> 00:31:17.880
yahweh scrutinizes all hearts and understands whatever plans they may.
486
00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:21.279
Devise if you Seek, kim he will let you find,
487
00:31:21.400 --> 00:31:25.079
him but forsake, him and he will cast you off. Forever,
488
00:31:26.240 --> 00:31:28.680
well we know as a believer he doesn't cast us off.
489
00:31:28.759 --> 00:31:31.680
Forever we know as a believer that he still holds
490
00:31:31.720 --> 00:31:34.839
on to, us that we're still. Saved but, man we
491
00:31:34.920 --> 00:31:37.960
could be pathetic in Our christian. Walk we could be
492
00:31:38.079 --> 00:31:41.480
slothful in Our christian. Walk we could be extremely needy
493
00:31:41.559 --> 00:31:48.599
in Our christian. Walk So psalm's eighty six, Eleven david,
494
00:31:48.680 --> 00:31:52.680
says teach me your, WAY O, LORD i will walk
495
00:31:52.720 --> 00:31:55.839
in your, truth unite my heart to fear your. Name
496
00:31:57.640 --> 00:32:00.440
Even david had a divided heart at, times but Yet
497
00:32:00.480 --> 00:32:03.119
god says he had a heart After. God how can that?
498
00:32:03.279 --> 00:32:06.039
Be how could he have a divided heart and yet
499
00:32:06.119 --> 00:32:10.240
have a heart After? God because run he realized that
500
00:32:10.319 --> 00:32:13.079
he was outside Of god's will when he realized that
501
00:32:13.200 --> 00:32:16.200
other things had taken the, place and he confessed it
502
00:32:16.319 --> 00:32:19.920
and went back To. God and that's what made his
503
00:32:20.000 --> 00:32:24.119
heart right With. God he wasn't. Perfect you're not, perfect
504
00:32:24.160 --> 00:32:26.400

Seven you you shall teach them diligently to your sons

00:34:28.119 --> 00:34:30.760
house when you walk by the, way and when you lie,
539
00:34:30.880 --> 00:34:33.000
down and when you rise. Up, well you, know The
540
00:34:33.079 --> 00:34:35.880
hebrews at that time became really good at doing. That
541
00:34:36.559 --> 00:34:40.199
they were successful in making religion an integral part of
542
00:34:40.239 --> 00:34:43.039
their children's. Life listen To Jay vern and McGee this,
543
00:34:43.159 --> 00:34:48.119
morning and how many, people how many, nations how many
544
00:34:48.440 --> 00:34:53.360
individual groups have sustained What israel has sustained and still

have their national. Identity how many now we lose our.
546
00:35:00.679 --> 00:35:05.280
Identity they were successful in teaching a national. Identity you,
547
00:35:05.360 --> 00:35:08.159
know sometimes in today's world it'd be good if they
548
00:35:08.199 --> 00:35:13.840
would teach them an identity In, god In. Christ but
549
00:35:13.960 --> 00:35:15.920
they have done a good job in the past to do.
550
00:35:16.079 --> 00:35:19.960
That and the reason for their success was the religious
551
00:35:20.119 --> 00:35:24.760
education was life, oriented not just what AM i doing
552

565
00:36:15.079 --> 00:36:18.360
Way although we buy into those kinds of things and
566
00:36:18.559 --> 00:36:21.400
think that that's. It, hey send them to one and
567

568

they'll have memorized all that scripture and they'll be. Great,
569
00:36:29.719 --> 00:36:33.599
well it can, be but too many, kids their parents
570
00:36:33.679 --> 00:36:36.320
teach them to memorize the scripture and don't remind them
571
00:36:36.320 --> 00:36:39.679
about it. Later any kids forget in the scripture don't mean.
572
00:36:39.760 --> 00:36:44.559
Anything if you want your children to Follow, god you
573

the only, way that is the only. Way and if
575

you're feeling, convicted Praise. God i'm convicted all the. TIME
576
00:36:58.239 --> 00:37:00.760
i hope somebody else is to be the only one
577
00:37:00.800 --> 00:37:02.840
out there that the Boy god's got the two by
578
00:37:02.920 --> 00:37:07.840
four up against his, head and said Man cobbados my dad.
579
00:37:07.920 --> 00:37:09.360
Did dad an awful lot WHEN i was a. Kid

it means blackhead. Man you, know it's a terrible thing
581
00:37:12.719 --> 00:37:14.599
for my dad to THINK i had a blockhead and couldn't.
582
00:37:14.719 --> 00:37:18.960
Learn BUT i understand today what my dad. MEANT i
583
00:37:19.079 --> 00:37:21.960
understand today that Sometimes god has to knock me upside
584
00:37:22.000 --> 00:37:28.599
the head as. Well we must teach our children diligently
585
00:37:29.000 --> 00:37:31.480
About god in all aspects of our, life not just
586
00:37:31.880 --> 00:37:35.519
about church related. Activities our, kids you know, what they're pretty.
587
00:37:35.559 --> 00:37:39.360
Sharp they are pretty, sharp and they will practice how
588
00:37:39.480 --> 00:37:41.679
we live more than what we say about how to.
589
00:37:41.760 --> 00:37:45.519
Live they will practice how we. Live they will practice
590
00:37:45.559 --> 00:37:49.039
and live out what's important to. Us do you say
591
00:37:49.079 --> 00:37:51.719
you're committed To? God we tell our kids that they're
592
00:37:51.760 --> 00:37:55.559
going to watch for that. Commitment oh they're too young
593
00:37:55.639 --> 00:37:58.639
to know. That oh give them more. Credit Give god
594
00:37:58.760 --> 00:38:02.000
more credit than. That his scripture says out the mouths
595
00:38:02.039 --> 00:38:07.800
of babes will. Learn in the psychology The Old, testament
596
00:38:08.159 --> 00:38:12.599
the heart is not the center of emotions and emotional.
597
00:38:12.679 --> 00:38:17.679
Life it is the seat of intellectual and rational. Life
598
00:38:18.079 --> 00:38:20.599
when we sometimes get that a little bit confused and
599
00:38:20.719 --> 00:38:23.519
we think it's the seat of emotional, Life, no it's
600
00:38:23.559 --> 00:38:28.280
the seat of our, intellectual our rational life of. Mankind
601
00:38:28.719 --> 00:38:32.360
and to be upon the heart is to be constant
602
00:38:32.440 --> 00:38:36.000
in what we, do constant and how we, live how we,
603
00:38:36.159 --> 00:38:39.960
walk and to have conscious reflection about the things Of.
604
00:38:40.079 --> 00:38:45.920
God how are you at reflecting on the things Of? God?
605
00:38:46.119 --> 00:38:50.079
Mary remember you Know christmas and marry the mother Of.
606
00:38:50.199 --> 00:38:54.239
Jesus what said about? Her she pondered all these things
607
00:38:54.360 --> 00:38:57.119
in her. Heart she reflected upon the things Of. God
608
00:38:59.239 --> 00:39:02.559
she reflected about what was. Important she reflected upon what
609
00:39:02.760 --> 00:39:05.159
was said About. Jesus you, KNOW i, mean, man to
610
00:39:05.280 --> 00:39:07.599
think that so many props will your heart will be.
611
00:39:07.719 --> 00:39:11.199
Pierced whoa and he will be. Pierced, man that's painful.
612
00:39:11.280 --> 00:39:14.920
Things and she. Pondered AND i can hear her praying
613
00:39:14.960 --> 00:39:22.199
about that to The father over and. Over so much
614
00:39:22.679 --> 00:39:25.159
so is the case that we keep these upon our,
615
00:39:25.199 --> 00:39:29.400
hearts that the covenant recipient must impress those words of
616
00:39:29.519 --> 00:39:33.159
covenant faith into their thinking and into the thinking of their,
617
00:39:33.280 --> 00:39:38.280
children impress upon them the things Of. God in that
618
00:39:38.480 --> 00:39:42.960
context of, that the images of an engraver engraving on a, monument,
619
00:39:43.320 --> 00:39:46.400
well you, know people get gravestones and they engrave on
620
00:39:46.559 --> 00:39:49.719
that painstaking. Work you don't get a gravestone the next. Day,
621
00:39:50.159 --> 00:39:52.199
well you go, in you pick it, out and then
622
00:39:52.239 --> 00:39:53.840
they tell you it's going to take a week, two
623
00:39:53.920 --> 00:39:56.920
maybe a little bit longer to get that engraved into,
624
00:39:56.960 --> 00:39:59.679
there and then they engrave it that it will. Last,
625
00:40:00.400 --> 00:40:03.199
WELL i don't know what if you ever go to old.
626
00:40:03.280 --> 00:40:07.280
CEMETERIES i, have And i've seen headstones back to seventeen
627
00:40:07.400 --> 00:40:10.880
hundreds that still have information on. It and so the
628
00:40:11.039 --> 00:40:14.480
context is that it will be engraved there, forever we're
629
00:40:14.519 --> 00:40:17.360
to engrave the things Of god onto our own, hearts
630
00:40:17.719 --> 00:40:20.719
our own, minds our, lives and then engrave them on
631
00:40:20.840 --> 00:40:23.559
our children's, life that they might see them as they
632
00:40:23.639 --> 00:40:27.320
look at those engravings on a headstone in, us that
633
00:40:27.480 --> 00:40:34.320
it will become visible to them in less figurative, terms
634
00:40:34.840 --> 00:40:38.760
and yet with a Clear Heartprobola moses said that the
635
00:40:39.239 --> 00:40:42.599
way this message is to be made indelible is by constant.
636
00:40:42.679 --> 00:40:46.119
Repetition and so scripture, says, boy weoure to wear them
637
00:40:46.159 --> 00:40:48.199
on our, foreheads and to wear them on our, hands
638
00:40:48.239 --> 00:40:51.840
and put them on our. Doorpost and, boy The pharisees
639
00:40:51.880 --> 00:40:54.840
took that, literal and so they had their philactries on their.
640
00:40:54.840 --> 00:40:57.559
Forehead they had them on their. Hands they have verses in,
641
00:40:57.639 --> 00:41:00.280
them they have verses on the. Doorposts Thank, god not a.
642
00:41:00.320 --> 00:41:03.000
Woman and what kind of what kind Of christian life
643
00:41:03.079 --> 00:41:07.679
or believer's life is? That WHAT i, mean what's that all?
644
00:41:07.679 --> 00:41:13.679
About so what's really being said? Here, well the idea
645
00:41:13.760 --> 00:41:17.079
is that whether we're sitting at home or walking in the,
646
00:41:17.159 --> 00:41:20.880
pathway whether we're lying down asleep or or rising up
647
00:41:21.000 --> 00:41:23.559
from our task of a new, day we're to teach
648
00:41:27.199 --> 00:41:31.840
and we're to be preoccupied with this covenant relationship With.
649
00:41:32.039 --> 00:41:37.639
God so we have these pairings in. Here, uh and
650
00:41:37.880 --> 00:41:41.880
they're they're kind of. Contrasting. Uh and it expresses some
651
00:41:42.039 --> 00:41:44.760
really strong. Ideas but what does it. Mean, well let's
652
00:41:44.760 --> 00:41:47.079
look at. It sitting it will be up on the
653
00:41:47.119 --> 00:41:51.840
wall suggest. Inactivity, well usually When i'm sitting, Down i'm pretty,
654
00:41:51.840 --> 00:41:55.159
inactive and for, me more than LIKELY i will either
655
00:41:55.280 --> 00:41:59.719
be WATCHING tv or be in a book. Walking what does?
656
00:41:59.800 --> 00:42:03.559
That it implies. Activity so when you're sitting, down when you're,
657
00:42:03.639 --> 00:42:06.119
inactive talk to your kids about the things Of. God
658
00:42:06.599 --> 00:42:09.840
let them catch you reading The. Bible manda came home
659
00:42:09.920 --> 00:42:12.199
and the same. Thing she comes out of the. Bedroom
660
00:42:12.280 --> 00:42:15.559
and if we're waiting for a. Boy we're normally sitting
661
00:42:15.599 --> 00:42:17.639
