00:00:06,300 --> 00:00:09,500
Thank you for joining us at Key 
Life Fellowship for our Pulpit 

2
00:00:09,500 --> 00:00:13,000
Ministry, podcast. 
Each sermon on this podcast is 

3
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:15,200
from our 11 a.m. 
Sunday service. 

4
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,900
We are glad that you have joined
us digitally, but would love to 

5
00:00:18,900 --> 00:00:23,100
see you in person on Sunday 
mornings at either 9 a.m. or 11 

6
00:00:23,100 --> 00:00:27,000
a.m. 
Now, let's open God's word and 

7
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,100
ask him to reveal his truths for
our lives. 

8
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:37,700
If you would turn in your Bibles
to John, chapter 14. 

9
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,100
John chapter 14 and we know that
we are coming off a lesson that 

10
00:00:42,100 --> 00:00:46,400
Jesus taught us last week 
regarding the indwelling, Holy 

11
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:50,600
Spirit, and the promise of that 
counselor that he was going to 

12
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:56,100
sin at comforter that advocate. 
And in this week, we're going to

13
00:00:56,100 --> 00:01:00,200
look at one particular verse 
that you could put with that 

14
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:04,500
text or you could put it with 
the next section or you could as

15
00:01:04,500 --> 00:01:08,500
we're going to do today. 
Stop for just a moment. 

16
00:01:08,500 --> 00:01:11,800
And examine the truths that we 
see. 

17
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:16,000
In this one verse verse 27 of 
chapter 14, because in this 

18
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:20,800
verse Jesus is going to offer 
peace to the anxious Hearts. 

19
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,500
He's to the anxious hearts. 
And as we continue the study I 

20
00:01:24,500 --> 00:01:26,800
want to remind you, this is in 
the upper room. 

21
00:01:27,900 --> 00:01:30,200
During what we call the upper 
room discourse where he is 

22
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:34,600
teaching specific lessons to his
true disciples. 

23
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:38,900
Remember Judas is gone. 
V disciple has left his teaching

24
00:01:38,900 --> 00:01:42,600
lessons to the church. 
And pray that this church would 

25
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,900
get that lesson lesson that he 
is about to unfold for us and 

26
00:01:46,900 --> 00:01:50,800
Jesus knowing their fear and 
their anxious thoughts, their 

27
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,600
worries that they are facing. 
He's told them that he's going 

28
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,700
to die for their sin. 
He's told him that he's going to

29
00:01:56,700 --> 00:01:58,500
leave the world and go to the 
father. 

30
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,700
He's told him that he's the way 
the truth and the life. 

31
00:02:01,700 --> 00:02:04,300
No man comes to the father but 
by them he lets him know he's 

32
00:02:04,300 --> 00:02:07,500
going back there. 
And if he goes back there, he's 

33
00:02:07,500 --> 00:02:11,200
going to come again to that 
place that he has prepared for 

34
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:12,300
them. 
And he's going to take them to 

35
00:02:12,300 --> 00:02:17,300
where he is, but in the 
meanwhile, We're going to face 

36
00:02:17,300 --> 00:02:18,400
all sorts of things on this 
Earth. 

37
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:22,000
In fact, we know this that 
they're going to just a few days

38
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:27,200
run for their life and hide. 
Jesus and his compassion and his

39
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,600
love for them here. 
In this Upper Room discourse, 

40
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,500
he's going to help them. 
To deal with their anxious 

41
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,300
hearts. 
When you see this in a message 

42
00:02:37,300 --> 00:02:40,500
entitled piece for the anxious 
heart, Jesus is going to give 

43
00:02:40,500 --> 00:02:44,500
them peace for their anxious 
hearts. 

44
00:02:45,700 --> 00:02:51,400
We know that anxiety is a 
problem in our culture is a 

45
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:55,300
problem in our culture and 
statistics prove that before we 

46
00:02:55,300 --> 00:02:59,100
look at the statistics that we 
are going to examine from a 

47
00:02:59,100 --> 00:03:02,400
survey done in 2022. 
I want to remind you the 

48
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,900
definition of anxiety. 
Here's the basic definition of 

49
00:03:05,900 --> 00:03:11,400
anxiety, it is the anticipatory 
fear of a future problem. 

50
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,600
It's not even a problem yet. 
It's not even come to fruition 

51
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:20,100
as a problem. 
It is a created problem or it is

52
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,400
a promise from the enemy of a 
potential problem, but it's not 

53
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,600
even a problem. 
Yet many people, as we will see 

54
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:31,700
from these statistics are 
gripped by their anxious Hearts,

55
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,000
their gripped by fear their 
troubled. 

56
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:41,900
They're facing this anxiety. 
Did you know this? 

57
00:03:41,900 --> 00:03:45,600
The statistic? 
She was this, that anxiety is 

58
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:50,600
the most common mental illness 
and the United States, most 

59
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,500
common mental illness in the 
United States. 

60
00:03:52,500 --> 00:03:56,800
Statistics show, that one third 
of Americans show signs of 

61
00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:02,200
depression, or clinical anxiety,
that's roughly. 110 million 

62
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:06,900
people. 
Who are gripped by fear or group

63
00:04:06,900 --> 00:04:11,600
by worry who are fretting over 
things, that haven't even come 

64
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,800
to pass yet. 
And probably will not come to 

65
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:20,600
pass top 10, fears reported in 
this survey in 2022, in the 

66
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,100
survey that was taken. 
Number one was covid-19. 

67
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:31,000
With 35 percent of the people 
surveyed being anxious because 

68
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:35,300
of covid-19, the second thing, 
it was poverty and social, 

69
00:04:35,300 --> 00:04:38,300
inequality, 31 percent of those 
surveyed said that they're 

70
00:04:38,300 --> 00:04:40,800
anxious in regard to poverty and
social. 

71
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:46,200
Equality, 28% said, I'm worried 
about unemployment, I'm fearful 

72
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:51,800
of this. financial and political
corruption found, 27 percent of 

73
00:04:51,808 --> 00:04:58,700
the people surveyed in constant 
fear and worry about financial 

74
00:04:58,700 --> 00:05:03,600
and political corruption, 26 
percent of the world. 

75
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,900
Say that crime and violence 
calls them. 

76
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:12,300
Great anxiety fear. 23% said 
Healthcare. 

77
00:05:12,300 --> 00:05:14,300
They're afraid that when they 
grow older, they won't have the 

78
00:05:14,308 --> 00:05:18,000
health care that they need. 
As if God somehow stopped being 

79
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,000
sovereign. twenty-three percent 
said they worry about that 

80
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:26,200
fearful 20% said, inflation's, 
my thing. 

81
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,600
Inflation's, what what has me 
worried? 

82
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,600
16% said, taxes. 
You can tell that this wasn't 

83
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:42,100
done. 
In March or April. 15% said 

84
00:05:42,100 --> 00:05:43,600
education. 
I just don't feel like I'm 

85
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,700
educated enough and have the 
opportunity to get education. 

86
00:05:45,700 --> 00:05:50,600
I'm fearful that I'm just not 
going to make it in Life or I 

87
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,200
don't want to achieve my goals 
in education and then 15% the 

88
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,900
same percent which I find 
striking the odd, they're 

89
00:05:56,900 --> 00:06:01,600
anxious and fearful and worried 
about climate change, as if they

90
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,700
could control that in any way at
all. 

91
00:06:06,700 --> 00:06:09,900
But interesting enough in this 
survey there was no recorded 

92
00:06:09,900 --> 00:06:14,500
fear and anxiety associated with
the coming judgment and wrath of

93
00:06:14,500 --> 00:06:16,000
God. 
That is going to come upon this 

94
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,100
wicked world. 
No one was worried about that 

95
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,300
but you know what they were 
worried about? 

96
00:06:20,500 --> 00:06:24,100
Are those titles that we learnt 
that when we looked at covid-19 

97
00:06:24,100 --> 00:06:26,700
and poverty and social 
inequality and unemployment 

98
00:06:26,700 --> 00:06:29,500
Financial political corruption 
crime and violence Health Care, 

99
00:06:29,500 --> 00:06:31,200
inflation. 
Tax is education and climate 

100
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,400
change. 
We know that the media is 

101
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,300
pumping out information about 
this constantly. 

102
00:06:37,700 --> 00:06:41,200
Proving the fact that the media 
wants you to be afraid and can I

103
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,800
assure you of this? 
Please listen. 

104
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,900
The secular media is controlled 
by Satan himself. 

105
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,800
Please know that that the things
that they spew from their mouths

106
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:56,100
or lies, and he is the father of
all lies. 

107
00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,000
It's only look at the survey. 
We can come to this conclusion. 

108
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:09,200
The world is anxious. 
World is anxious 5.8 percent of 

109
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:15,800
American children. 
Ages 3 to 17 are said to have 

110
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,100
anxiety. 
Yes Yuri of this parent. 

111
00:07:18,100 --> 00:07:19,700
You listen to this and you 
listen to this closely. 

112
00:07:19,700 --> 00:07:23,000
If your three-year-old has 
anxiety you taught them how to 

113
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,700
have anxiety. 
You taught him how to walk. 

114
00:07:25,700 --> 00:07:28,100
You taught him how to talk you 
taught him, how to eat, they're 

115
00:07:28,100 --> 00:07:30,600
anxious because you are fearful.
They are worried because you are

116
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,400
worried. 
They learn it from your pattern.

117
00:07:36,900 --> 00:07:41,400
5.8 American, 5.8 percent of 
American children, said to have 

118
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:46,500
anxiety. 
There was a 25% global increase 

119
00:07:46,500 --> 00:07:49,900
of anxiety because of covid-19. 
Now you pay attention to that at

120
00:07:49,900 --> 00:07:53,800
25 percent increase of anxiety 
around the globe. 

121
00:07:53,800 --> 00:08:00,400
For a disease that by statistics
was only fatal in less than one 

122
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:06,300
percent of the cases. 
You think the media isn't trying

123
00:08:06,300 --> 00:08:12,000
to cause you to doubt God and to
fear I assure you, they are 8.10

124
00:08:12,100 --> 00:08:16,600
million people in the United 
States. 8.10 million people in 

125
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,400
the United States, are 
prescribed, some type of anti 

126
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:23,400
anxiety medication. 
Proof that the world has 

127
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,500
exchanged peace for a 
prescription. 

128
00:08:28,300 --> 00:08:30,500
The world has exchanged piece 
for prescription. 

129
00:08:30,500 --> 00:08:33,799
I assure you today. 
That the Lord Jesus Christ. 

130
00:08:33,799 --> 00:08:37,799
The great physician is going to 
give you the antidote for your 

131
00:08:37,799 --> 00:08:41,400
troubled, anxious heart and is 
going to be the peace of God 

132
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,900
that he offers to his true 
disciples. 

133
00:08:44,700 --> 00:08:47,500
And unfortunately as we survey 
the world, we know this that 

134
00:08:47,500 --> 00:08:51,300
this problem is always also 
already crept into the church. 

135
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:56,000
And the Pew to the pulpit. 
The statistics are astounding. 

136
00:08:57,700 --> 00:09:03,000
Of the pastors who claim to have
suffered with anxiety and stress

137
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:07,200
and depression. 
Perhaps, even some of you today.

138
00:09:09,100 --> 00:09:12,800
You were suffering, the 
crippling effects of anxiety and

139
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:17,100
fear in your life. 
Jesus is going to offer some 

140
00:09:17,100 --> 00:09:21,200
things in this verse today. 
I want to pay close attention to

141
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,800
those things. 
As we read The Words of Christ 

142
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:29,900
in John 14:27 and light of the 
fact that all statistics show, 

143
00:09:32,100 --> 00:09:34,900
That men and women and children 
in this world are succumbing to 

144
00:09:34,900 --> 00:09:39,600
anxiety and fear. 
But Jesus is going to offer them

145
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:46,800
today piece for their trouble. 
Hearts verse 27 says this peace,

146
00:09:47,300 --> 00:09:49,900
I leave with you. 
My peace. 

147
00:09:49,900 --> 00:09:54,200
I give you I do not give to you 
as the world gives. 

148
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,900
Do not let your hearts be 
troubled. 

149
00:10:00,500 --> 00:10:02,700
We sing this to the Believers in
the upper room discourse. 

150
00:10:02,700 --> 00:10:05,200
I'm saying it to Believers here 
today who claim to know Christ. 

151
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:12,000
Do not let your hearts be 
troubled and do not be afraid. 

152
00:10:12,900 --> 00:10:16,500
Do not be afraid. 
The term fear, not, or do not 

153
00:10:16,500 --> 00:10:19,500
fear, is repeated hundreds upon 
hundreds. 

154
00:10:19,500 --> 00:10:21,800
Upon hundreds of times in 
scripture. 

155
00:10:21,900 --> 00:10:26,900
Yet we find a society who is 
always gripped by their fear. 

156
00:10:28,100 --> 00:10:30,900
And I want us to see today, as 
we look at the words of Jesus, 

157
00:10:30,900 --> 00:10:34,700
this does not have to be so in 
the life of a Christian it 

158
00:10:34,700 --> 00:10:38,300
should not be. 
So let's look first at the 

159
00:10:38,300 --> 00:10:42,400
promised peace of Christ. 
We see that in the first part of

160
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:47,400
this verse, he says, peace. 
I leave with you peace. 

161
00:10:47,500 --> 00:10:50,700
I leave with you and I assure 
you of this. 

162
00:10:50,700 --> 00:10:53,000
When Jesus says something, it is
a guarantee. 

163
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,600
This is a guarantee for all True
Believers. 

164
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,800
As he's, there in the upper 
Upper Room, speaking to his true

165
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,700
followers. 
Knowing exactly what they are 

166
00:11:03,700 --> 00:11:07,800
about to go through. 
He says peace. 

167
00:11:08,500 --> 00:11:14,400
I leave with you. 
He didn't pull out the 

168
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:18,300
Prescription Pad. 
Write them script at the local 

169
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:22,900
pharmacy, there in Jerusalem. 
But he offered them something 

170
00:11:22,900 --> 00:11:27,400
greater. 
He said Peace I leave with you. 

171
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:32,300
Oh the craving of the anxious 
heart should be peace and it is 

172
00:11:32,300 --> 00:11:35,300
a guaranteed to all who are in 
Christ first. 

173
00:11:35,300 --> 00:11:38,700
We see that he gives them peace 
with God and oh what a piece 

174
00:11:38,700 --> 00:11:42,500
that is peace with God, through 
true reconciliation. 

175
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,500
I pray to God that you were 
thankful today that you have 

176
00:11:46,500 --> 00:11:48,900
been reconciled to a. 
Holy God. 

177
00:11:48,900 --> 00:11:51,300
Did you know this? 
You were not born into this 

178
00:11:51,300 --> 00:11:53,600
world at peace with your 
creator. 

179
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,000
In fact because of sin, you were
born into this world. 

180
00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:02,000
An enemy of God. 
Romans 5:10 says this for if 

181
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,700
when we were God's enemies, we 
were reconciled to him through 

182
00:12:05,700 --> 00:12:07,500
the death of his son. 
How much more having been 

183
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:11,200
reconciled shall we be saved 
through his life not only is 

184
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,000
this. 
So but we also rejoice in God 

185
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,200
through our Lord Jesus Christ 
through whom we have now 

186
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,300
received reconciliation 
reconciliation. 

187
00:12:20,300 --> 00:12:23,100
It is through Christ that we 
have peace with God. 

188
00:12:23,100 --> 00:12:26,100
It is part of the peace package 
that he is offering his true 

189
00:12:26,100 --> 00:12:30,100
disciples here today, to rest in
the fact of knowing that I have 

190
00:12:30,100 --> 00:12:35,200
peace with my holy Creator, a 
piece that I did not learn on my

191
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,700
own but was earned a for me, 
through the precious sacrifice 

192
00:12:38,700 --> 00:12:41,500
of Jesus Christ. 
I have peace with God and 

193
00:12:41,500 --> 00:12:46,200
reconciliation with God, the 
Father, Jesus is telling his 

194
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:47,700
disciples here. 
I'm promising. 

195
00:12:47,700 --> 00:12:51,500
You peace peace. 
I leave with you. 

196
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,900
Guarantee for all True Believers
peace with God, Colossians 1 

197
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,800
verse 20 says and through him to
reconcile to himself all things,

198
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,500
it's talking of Christ. 
Whether things on earth, or 

199
00:13:02,508 --> 00:13:05,000
things in Heaven, by making 
peace. 

200
00:13:05,100 --> 00:13:07,900
Through his blood shed on the 
cross. 

201
00:13:08,300 --> 00:13:11,300
All things have been reconciled 
for the believer, through the 

202
00:13:11,300 --> 00:13:15,700
sacrifice of Jesus Christ, 
through the blood shed on the 

203
00:13:15,700 --> 00:13:17,500
cross. 
It is at the cross where we 

204
00:13:17,508 --> 00:13:23,000
receive peace with God. 
Jesus offering This Promise of 

205
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:24,900
peace. 
Peace with God to his disciples 

206
00:13:24,900 --> 00:13:27,200
there in the upper end. 
Peace, I leave with you. 

207
00:13:27,900 --> 00:13:31,000
My peace with God and it's peace
from God. 

208
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,100
He's from God. 
In the fact that the Holy Spirit

209
00:13:34,100 --> 00:13:37,300
continually indwells all of us 
who believe remember the lesson 

210
00:13:37,300 --> 00:13:39,300
last week. 
He said I'm going to send you 

211
00:13:39,300 --> 00:13:41,900
another counselor. 
He's going to move in, he's with

212
00:13:41,900 --> 00:13:45,500
you, he's going to be in you. 
He's saying the piece that I 

213
00:13:45,500 --> 00:13:48,500
leave with you will be an 
internal piece. 

214
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,000
Aren't you thankful that? 
We don't have to get our piece 

215
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:55,200
from an outside Source? 
We have peace with God but we 

216
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,900
also have peace from God through
that. 

217
00:13:57,900 --> 00:14:00,200
Continual dwelling of the Holy 
Spirit. 

218
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:04,000
What a gift. 
That Galatians 5, when Paul 

219
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,200
describes the fruit of the 
spirit he says, but the fruit of

220
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:11,800
the spirit is this in verse 22, 
love, joy, peace. 

221
00:14:12,700 --> 00:14:16,600
All the spirit is going to 
produce peace in your life as a 

222
00:14:16,608 --> 00:14:20,600
Believer. 
It is the fruit of the spirit 

223
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:24,500
peace from God. 
It is gone. 

224
00:14:25,700 --> 00:14:32,400
And Hebrews chapter 13. 
He's referred to as the God of 

225
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,400
Peace. 
Hebrew starts in 20 calls, him 

226
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:38,100
the God of Peace, it is a part 
of who he is and you have peace 

227
00:14:38,300 --> 00:14:40,700
from him. 
What a gracious God that we have

228
00:14:40,700 --> 00:14:44,200
to offer us peace knowing that 
we were going to live in a 

229
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:49,300
tumultuous world and in an 
upside-down Society, the Pagan 

230
00:14:49,300 --> 00:14:53,400
culture yet he offers us peace 
from himself. 

231
00:14:54,300 --> 00:14:58,300
He says peace I leave with you. 
My peace with God peace from God

232
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:03,100
15 times in the New Testament. 
This phrase is offered up. 

233
00:15:03,100 --> 00:15:05,500
Peace from God. 
You think peace doesn't come 

234
00:15:05,500 --> 00:15:06,500
from God. 
And why? 

235
00:15:06,500 --> 00:15:08,700
With a new testament 15 
different times. 

236
00:15:08,700 --> 00:15:11,600
Say grace to you, and peace from
God. 

237
00:15:13,100 --> 00:15:16,300
To know. 
That our heavenly father cares 

238
00:15:16,300 --> 00:15:20,100
enough for us. 
It has enough compassion on his 

239
00:15:20,100 --> 00:15:26,800
children to send us peace to 
live within us, the power of the

240
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,500
Holy Spirit. 
And though the world may 

241
00:15:29,500 --> 00:15:35,400
crumble, Mountains, may fall 
Wars may break out. 

242
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:39,700
And famine happen. 
Natural disaster happen. 

243
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:45,800
Economic chaos happen. 
God has given his children. 

244
00:15:46,700 --> 00:15:53,000
Internal peace, internal peace. 
Peace from God. 

245
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,100
This takes us to the next part 
and not only is it a guarantee 

246
00:15:56,100 --> 00:15:58,100
for all True Believers. 
When we look at the promised 

247
00:15:58,100 --> 00:16:00,000
peace of Christ, it's a gift of 
God's Grace. 

248
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,900
Peace is Grace, and all. 
Grace is come from Christ, 

249
00:16:04,900 --> 00:16:06,200
please? 
Understand that, every Grace, 

250
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:11,000
that you have from God, is found
in crime, and it is in Christ. 

251
00:16:12,500 --> 00:16:14,800
We receive peace as a gift of 
God's grace. 

252
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:19,500
Romans 5:1 says, therefore since
we have been justified through 

253
00:16:19,500 --> 00:16:24,000
faith, we have peace with God 
through our Lord. 

254
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:29,100
Jesus Christ, peace with God. 
Through our Lord Jesus Christ 

255
00:16:29,500 --> 00:16:33,000
through whom we have gained 
access by faith into this grace,

256
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:36,300
what Grace, The Grace Of Peace 
that comes with the grace of God

257
00:16:36,300 --> 00:16:40,200
found only in Christ, which we 
now stand and we rejoice in the 

258
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:43,100
hope of the glory of God. 
O what peace? 

259
00:16:43,100 --> 00:16:47,300
He gives to us because of his 
grades that peace is achieved by

260
00:16:47,300 --> 00:16:51,300
Christ is achieved by Christ 
through his atoning, sacrifice 

261
00:16:51,300 --> 00:16:54,400
on the cross. 
He's was achieved for you and 

262
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:59,400
for all who will by faith trust 
in Christ, he has achieved that 

263
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:03,000
piece for us, it is through him 
and him alone that we will ever 

264
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:08,800
see true God given peace is 
achieved by Christ. 

265
00:17:09,700 --> 00:17:14,400
Gift of God's grace is also 
accessed by clients prices are 

266
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,700
access to true. 
Peace Ephesians, chapter 3 verse

267
00:17:17,700 --> 00:17:20,800
12 in him and through faith. 
In him. 

268
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:25,500
We may approach god with freedom
and confidence. 

269
00:17:25,500 --> 00:17:27,400
Did you know this? 
At one time in your life, you 

270
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:31,000
were at enmity with God, you 
could not approach him. 

271
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:33,800
There was no peace between you 
and your maker. 

272
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,900
In fact. 
You're alienated from him. 

273
00:17:37,900 --> 00:17:41,500
You could not have a right 
relationship with him, but 

274
00:17:41,500 --> 00:17:47,200
Christ, through his sacrifice 
has reconciled Sinners unto God.

275
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:51,400
So, that through faith in 
Christ, we can now approach god 

276
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:57,200
with freedom and confidence. 
We can approach God and receive 

277
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:01,500
peace from God. 
What a promise from Christ here 

278
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,000
in the mix midst of anxious 
Hearts. 

279
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,500
I can tell you this he knew of 
their anxious Hearts. 

280
00:18:06,500 --> 00:18:10,100
He knows all things but it's 
pertinent here that he teaches 

281
00:18:10,100 --> 00:18:12,900
this lesson because he knew the 
anxiety that they were being 

282
00:18:12,900 --> 00:18:16,800
stricken with. 
He promises them. 

283
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:20,800
Peace. 
Let me pee, you told us, your 

284
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:22,700
leave is leaving us. 
You told us, you're going to 

285
00:18:22,700 --> 00:18:25,000
die. 
He's about to tell them the 

286
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,600
things that are going to happen 
to them. 

287
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,300
He's telling them in the midst 
of all these things and list of 

288
00:18:31,308 --> 00:18:34,800
all the bad news that you've 
heard. you interpret is bad 

289
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:40,400
news, there's no reason to fear 
Jesus himself another occasion 

290
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,500
told his disciples in this life 
there will be all kinds of 

291
00:18:42,500 --> 00:18:48,200
troubles do not be afraid. 
I have overcome the world so it 

292
00:18:48,208 --> 00:18:51,600
is in Christ that we have great 
calls to walk in. 

293
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,500
God's gift is gracious. 
Gift of Peace. 

294
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,800
We access it through Christ and 
in Christ. 

295
00:18:58,500 --> 00:19:00,700
So, if you're going to attain 
peace in this life, let me start

296
00:19:00,700 --> 00:19:03,800
by saying this. 
You're never going to find it in

297
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,500
this world. 
We're going to find it in this 

298
00:19:06,500 --> 00:19:08,400
world. 
It is from God and it is a gift 

299
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,500
of his grace. 
So the believer who is here 

300
00:19:11,500 --> 00:19:15,100
today, let me say this to you to
be gripped by anxiety and fear. 

301
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:22,400
Is to forget the very promise of
peace from Jesus Christ. 

302
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:27,300
For you to be gripped by your 
anxiety and fear, is to forget 

303
00:19:27,300 --> 00:19:31,700
the promises of peace that 
Christ is making here. 

304
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,800
There are many people, I'm 
afraid many people even in the 

305
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,200
church who are suffering with 
anxiety. 

306
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:45,500
Simply because they don't truly 
believe what Jesus said. 

307
00:19:46,900 --> 00:19:50,900
He said, Peace, I leave with you
what more evidence do you need? 

308
00:19:52,900 --> 00:19:56,400
Peace I leave with you. 
It's yours for the taking who 

309
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:58,200
was he speaking to? 
He was he was not out in the 

310
00:19:58,208 --> 00:20:00,100
streets. 
Evangelizing the Lost. 

311
00:20:00,100 --> 00:20:03,000
He's speaking in the upper room 
in the upper room discourse to 

312
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,300
the True Believers and he said, 
I leave peace with you. 

313
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:09,000
The world knows nothing of this 
kind of Peace but you do yours 

314
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:13,100
for the taking and leave it. 
With you. 

315
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,100
Well, how many tons Believers 
can we testify? 

316
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:22,400
The how the piece that Christ 
has promised us? 

317
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,700
His carried us through the 
things of this life? 

318
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:29,900
Oh don't forget. 
The promises live as if you 

319
00:20:29,900 --> 00:20:34,800
believe them to disregard them 
is to act as if you don't. 

320
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,800
I'm a firm believer in this that
if you really believe something 

321
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,400
he will live what you say you 
believe and if you don't live 

322
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:45,100
it, you don't really believe it.
There are many Christians who 

323
00:20:45,500 --> 00:20:47,100
they have learned enough 
Christian. 

324
00:20:47,100 --> 00:20:50,700
He's to say, I believe. 
Of that Jesus promises Us Peace 

325
00:20:50,700 --> 00:20:52,600
by. 
But Kirk you don't understand. 

326
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,000
I might not, but I assure you of
this. 

327
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:58,100
He does He understands 
understands right? 

328
00:20:58,100 --> 00:20:59,100
Where you are? 
He understands where you're 

329
00:20:59,100 --> 00:21:00,700
going, he understands where 
you've been. 

330
00:21:01,900 --> 00:21:03,500
He understands where he's going 
to take you. 

331
00:21:04,900 --> 00:21:08,900
He offers you. 
Peace is a promise of Peace, the

332
00:21:08,900 --> 00:21:12,800
Peace of Christ. 
Not only do we see in this one. 

333
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:14,900
Verse the promised peace of 
Christ. 

334
00:21:14,900 --> 00:21:17,100
He says peace. 
I leave with you. 

335
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,000
We see secondly, the personal 
peace of Christ. 

336
00:21:22,500 --> 00:21:25,700
Watch this. 
My peace. 

337
00:21:27,100 --> 00:21:31,200
I give you. 
My peace. 

338
00:21:32,500 --> 00:21:38,000
I give you. 
He's not offering them. 

339
00:21:40,100 --> 00:21:43,800
Some type of knockoff. 
Peace. 

340
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:49,200
Or substitute for real peace. 
This Is Not Great Value. 

341
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,800
Sam's Choice dr. 
Thunder piece. 

342
00:21:55,900 --> 00:22:01,000
He's offering them his piece. 
He says my piece that is the 

343
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:02,900
operative word there, please 
focus on that. 

344
00:22:02,900 --> 00:22:05,500
He's not saying I'm giving you 
something other than the piece 

345
00:22:05,500 --> 00:22:09,100
that I have. 
He is saying I am giving to you 

346
00:22:09,100 --> 00:22:12,700
the same piece that resides in 
me through the indwelling, Holy 

347
00:22:12,700 --> 00:22:15,400
Spirit, the same piece of 
Christ. 

348
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:19,700
Wow. 
The same piece that calm Jesus 

349
00:22:19,700 --> 00:22:23,100
there in the garden. 
When he prayed. 

350
00:22:24,700 --> 00:22:28,600
He sweat drops of blood. and he 
said, I would that this cup pass

351
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:32,400
from me, But he was overwhelmed 
by piece and what was that 

352
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:33,800
piece? 
The will of God nevertheless 

353
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,500
your will be done that same 
piece. 

354
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,500
Been allowed an all-knowing 
savior. 

355
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,000
To walk into that Garden, that 
night. 

356
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,700
Knowing that one of his closest 
friends was going to betray him,

357
00:22:48,700 --> 00:22:51,000
that he was going to be turned 
over, falsely to the authorities

358
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:54,300
that he was going to be falsely,
trout tried and falsely executed

359
00:22:54,300 --> 00:22:58,200
the same piece that allowed 
Jesus Christ to walk through 

360
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:02,100
those things, resides in every 
single one of you who are truly 

361
00:23:02,300 --> 00:23:05,500
in Christ. 
Let's for the person who says 

362
00:23:05,700 --> 00:23:07,700
because you don't know about the
anxiety that I go through. 

363
00:23:07,700 --> 00:23:11,000
I promise you, this Christ does 
and the anxiety that you go 

364
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,100
through shrinks in comparison to
the anxiety that he and his 

365
00:23:14,100 --> 00:23:17,100
Humanity would have went through
without the peace of God. 

366
00:23:18,100 --> 00:23:21,200
He says my peace. 
My peace, I give you the same 

367
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:25,200
piece that I am. 
Same piece that calm Jesus. 

368
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:26,700
But also the same piece that 
carried. 

369
00:23:26,700 --> 00:23:30,900
Jesus, it carried and we see 
that as he was there. 

370
00:23:34,500 --> 00:23:38,100
He looked at his accusers. 
He looked at those who tormented

371
00:23:38,100 --> 00:23:42,500
him and tortured him He says, 
father forgive them for they 

372
00:23:42,500 --> 00:23:46,400
know not what they do. 
What piece Christ must have 

373
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:50,900
experience to be able to forgive
his enemies in such a way to be 

374
00:23:50,900 --> 00:23:55,000
able to rest in God's plan, you 
know, not to take matters into 

375
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:59,100
his own hands. 
He didn't offer his disciples a 

376
00:23:59,100 --> 00:24:03,200
lesser piece than he walked in 
and experienced in his life on 

377
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:07,000
this Earth. 
It's the same piece. 

378
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:12,300
His people I want you to brother
dear sister in Christ to think 

379
00:24:12,300 --> 00:24:15,800
about that for a moment. 
Next time, the enemy wants you 

380
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,700
to be filled with anxious, 
thoughts, and fears, and 

381
00:24:18,700 --> 00:24:20,600
worries. 
Frets. 

382
00:24:21,900 --> 00:24:24,500
I'll think about this the same 
piece of Christ. 

383
00:24:25,900 --> 00:24:30,100
That allowed him to endure. 
Is the same piece that lives in 

384
00:24:30,100 --> 00:24:31,900
you through the power of the 
Holy Spirit. 

385
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:37,000
He said my peace. 
I give to you same piece of 

386
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,600
Christ but also the sustaining 
peace of Christ. 

387
00:24:40,900 --> 00:24:44,600
It is the peace of God in him. 
That sustained him is peace. 

388
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:46,300
Sustain him during his 
suffering. 

389
00:24:46,300 --> 00:24:49,500
I assure you of that First Peter
chapter 2 verse 23. 

390
00:24:49,500 --> 00:24:51,900
It says when they hurled their 
insults at him he did not 

391
00:24:51,900 --> 00:24:55,600
retaliate. 
Why he was at peace. 

392
00:24:56,300 --> 00:24:59,000
He was at peace with the 
Sovereign plan of God, the 

393
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,300
father. 
He was at peace said, he did not

394
00:25:01,300 --> 00:25:04,400
retaliate and when he suffered, 
he did not make he made no 

395
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,900
threats. 
He didn't threaten them, Jesus, 

396
00:25:06,900 --> 00:25:09,500
never let out one. 
I'll get you for this from the 

397
00:25:09,500 --> 00:25:13,300
cross. 
He was at peace. 

398
00:25:14,500 --> 00:25:18,900
With the plan of God. 
And he has, he was at peace with

399
00:25:18,900 --> 00:25:22,000
God, the father because he was 
obediently walking in his will 

400
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,400
even though walking in his will 
meant suffering. 

401
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,600
He was at Great Piece. 
What a promise he says that same

402
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:34,600
piece, listen you Kirk Hall. 
The same, peace, my peace. 

403
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:38,900
I leave with you sustaining. 
Peace is peace. 

404
00:25:38,900 --> 00:25:42,500
Sustain him during his suffering
and his anguish is peace. 

405
00:25:42,500 --> 00:25:46,600
Tisane him even unto death. 
Facing death. 

406
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:50,700
Luke chapter, 23 recorded this 
in verse 46, Jesus calling out 

407
00:25:50,700 --> 00:25:54,500
with a loud voice. 
Father into your hands. 

408
00:25:55,100 --> 00:25:58,900
I commit my spirit, and when he 
had said this, he breathed his 

409
00:25:58,900 --> 00:26:05,700
last what a peaceful death, He 
didn't scream out to the father,

410
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:08,100
avenge them for their 
wickedness. 

411
00:26:11,100 --> 00:26:14,400
He simply said. 
Father, into your hands. 

412
00:26:15,500 --> 00:26:23,100
I commit my spirit, I am at 
peace with your plan and I am at

413
00:26:23,100 --> 00:26:29,500
peace with your provision and I 
am at peace with you my father 

414
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:37,200
and he breathed his last breath.
And he died, his peace sustained

415
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:41,700
him even unto death. 
The same piece that will sustain

416
00:26:41,700 --> 00:26:44,300
the True Believer even unto 
death. 

417
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:48,200
Did you know this many Martyrs 
throughout time have seen their 

418
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:49,900
life? 
Come to an end with that? 

419
00:26:49,900 --> 00:26:54,200
Same simple attitude. 
Oh, we could talk of countless 

420
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:55,700
Martyrs throughout church 
history. 

421
00:26:55,800 --> 00:27:00,400
Their last words were something 
to the degree of what Jesus said

422
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,400
here when he said into your 
hands. 

423
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:06,800
I commit My spirit, in fact, we 
see Stephen in Acts chapter 7, 

424
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:10,700
following that model. 
Verse 59 when Stephen was being 

425
00:27:10,700 --> 00:27:13,100
martyred for his faith in 
Christ, after delivering a 

426
00:27:13,100 --> 00:27:16,600
powerful message, they're 
outside the Lions Gate in 

427
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:20,500
Jerusalem. 
It says, while they were stoning

428
00:27:20,500 --> 00:27:23,500
him. 
Stephen prayed. 

429
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:29,500
Lord, Jesus. 
Receive my spirit he is they get

430
00:27:29,500 --> 00:27:31,200
them for the bad things that 
they're doing, how could they 

431
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:32,600
do? 
Such a horrible thing? 

432
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,300
He knew horrible, men do 
horrible things, it's a fallen 

433
00:27:35,300 --> 00:27:39,000
world. 
What is Hope? 

434
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,400
Was in the Peace of Christ that 
had been promised and he 

435
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:47,200
finished his life on this Earth 
with words, very similar to what

436
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:52,000
he had learned from Christ. 
The Savior Lord receive my 

437
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:56,400
spirit He died at peace. 
The Peace of Christ sustained 

438
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:59,100
him in death, just as it's 
sustained Christ in death. 

439
00:27:59,100 --> 00:28:02,400
Just as it will sustain. 
All of us because it is the same

440
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:08,200
piece of Christ. 
For you, you Christian. 

441
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:17,900
Be gripped by fear and anxiety 
and worry for you to be gripped.

442
00:28:17,900 --> 00:28:23,600
By these things is to Forfeit 
the very piece of Christ, the 

443
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:28,100
very piece of Christ, it is to 
say Jesus I realized that you 

444
00:28:28,100 --> 00:28:32,800
had the peace from God and that 
that piece resided upon you so 

445
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:36,700
that you could die with that 
piece so that you could suffer 

446
00:28:36,700 --> 00:28:40,700
and still remain in peace but I 
don't want that I would rather 

447
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:47,400
ER, have the fears of My Flesh, 
the doubts of my feeling, I 

448
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,500
would rather be an emotional 
wreck. 

449
00:28:52,100 --> 00:28:56,600
And the trust and the personal 
peace of Christ. 

450
00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:00,800
Oh, Your brothers and sisters in
Christ. 

451
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:05,300
Hear that message here. 
That message that when we 

452
00:29:05,300 --> 00:29:11,300
succumb to fear and anxiety, we 
are willfully forfeiting 

453
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:16,900
willfully forfeiting and laying 
down the very piece of Christ 

454
00:29:17,300 --> 00:29:24,800
that he died that we may have. 
Number three, as we continue in 

455
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,300
this one verse with so much 
truth. 

456
00:29:27,300 --> 00:29:31,400
Peace, I leave with you. 
My peace, I give you I do not 

457
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:35,600
give as the world gives, what a 
statement. 

458
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,300
I do not give as the world 
gives. 

459
00:29:38,900 --> 00:29:40,700
He's saying my piece is 
different. 

460
00:29:41,500 --> 00:29:44,000
My piece is different from the 
Peace of the world. 

461
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:48,300
My piece is perfect. 
Peace or look at the world's 

462
00:29:48,300 --> 00:29:50,100
peace. 
It's not perfect at all. 

463
00:29:50,500 --> 00:29:53,000
The perfect piece of Christ. 
If you were to understand it 

464
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:55,300
correctly. 
Is contrary to the world's idea 

465
00:29:55,300 --> 00:30:00,500
of Peace, the world can only 
offer false and temporary peace 

466
00:30:00,500 --> 00:30:01,300
out. 
I'll prove it to you. 

467
00:30:01,300 --> 00:30:05,300
How many of you love history 
history proves this that the 

468
00:30:05,300 --> 00:30:08,100
world knows nothing of peace. 
They don't know how to find 

469
00:30:08,100 --> 00:30:09,700
peace. 
They don't know how to live in 

470
00:30:09,700 --> 00:30:11,800
peace. 
Peace to them is just this 

471
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,300
facade that they are pursuing. 
That will never happen. 

472
00:30:16,900 --> 00:30:20,700
Because the world defines peace 
as the absence of conflict of 

473
00:30:20,700 --> 00:30:26,400
the absence of suffering. 
Jesus defines it. 

474
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:30,900
Completely different. 
The Peace of Jesus is different.

475
00:30:31,100 --> 00:30:32,800
The Peace of the world is 
contrary to Jesus. 

476
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,600
Jesus doesn't promise you in 
this world, the absence of 

477
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,400
conflict. 
In fact, he says, in this world,

478
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,200
there will be all kinds of 
trouble. 

479
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:46,500
I'm leaving you with my peace. 
My personal piece. 

480
00:30:48,300 --> 00:30:52,900
My perfect peace. 
The fact is the world since the 

481
00:30:52,900 --> 00:30:56,600
fall of Man has not seen any 
long span of peace throughout 

482
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:59,900
history. 
In fact, since they started 

483
00:30:59,900 --> 00:31:03,000
recording history of the world 
has only seen or has seen. 

484
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:09,300
Excuse me, in excess of 12,000 
Wars, 12,000 documented Wars, as

485
00:31:09,300 --> 00:31:12,500
not talking about little tribal 
skirmishes that we know not of 

486
00:31:12,500 --> 00:31:14,400
and are not documented in 
history books. 

487
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:18,100
We're talking about 12,000, 
major conflicts between In 

488
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,000
groups of men was never seen 
peace. 

489
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:25,200
All the world has seen over 
8,000, peace treaties that have 

490
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:29,500
been violated by one side or the
other and it's you know this 

491
00:31:29,500 --> 00:31:36,300
that there's only been 300 
cumulative years of peace upon 

492
00:31:36,300 --> 00:31:39,800
this Earth in recorded history, 
that's 300 years. 

493
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:44,500
Throughout the course of time. 
He says, not something that man 

494
00:31:44,500 --> 00:31:48,600
in and of themselves understands
nor do the government of men. 

495
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:55,100
It's country. 
The perfect piece of Christ 

496
00:31:55,700 --> 00:31:58,100
because the first perfect peace 
of Christ is contrary to the 

497
00:31:58,100 --> 00:32:02,500
world's idea of Peace. 
It is God and it is only God, I 

498
00:32:02,500 --> 00:32:05,600
assure you of this who can bring
true peace through. 

499
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:10,300
Jesus Christ, who is the Prince 
of Peace, according to Isaiah 

500
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:16,200
9:6, one of his titles, one of 
his many titles, It is only 

501
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:19,000
through Jesus, the prince of 
peace that the world will ever. 

502
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,800
See, true peace. 
Peace is not going to come by 

503
00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:26,400
the signing of a treaty by man's
hand. 

504
00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:30,500
Pieces going to only come when 
the foot of Jesus Christ. 

505
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,000
Steps down to the Mount of 
Olives. 

506
00:32:35,300 --> 00:32:39,200
When he returns, and he returns 
triumphantly to bring peace, he 

507
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,000
is the prince of peace and he 
will bring the peace of God with

508
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,200
him. 
He will bring peace upon this 

509
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,100
Earth. 
Finally the piece that's in once

510
00:32:47,100 --> 00:32:49,800
destroyed, he would bring an 
end. 

511
00:32:51,300 --> 00:32:54,000
That war that began in the 
garden between man. 

512
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,400
And God, he will bring perfect 
peace. 

513
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:02,100
It is contrary to anything this 
world has ever seen or known. 

514
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:08,500
World offers only false peace, 
the hope of Peace, but Jesus 

515
00:33:08,500 --> 00:33:13,400
offers true and perfect peace. 
Contrary to the system of the 

516
00:33:13,408 --> 00:33:16,100
world and their ideology that 
true and perfect. 

517
00:33:16,100 --> 00:33:19,900
Peace is constant. 
And it is unwavering the perfect

518
00:33:19,900 --> 00:33:23,200
piece of Christ is contrary to 
the world's idea of Peace. 

519
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,000
But the perfect peace of Christ 
is constant and unwavering, 

520
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:27,500
aren't you thankful for that 
this morning. 

521
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,800
Do we met waiver his piece? 
Never waivers that do we are 

522
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,200
inconsistent his pieces 
consistent? 

523
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:39,300
It's constant is true piece that
goes beyond any human 

524
00:33:39,300 --> 00:33:41,200
understanding. 
In fact Paul says that in his 

525
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,200
Philippian letter and 4:7 he 
calls it, the peace that 

526
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:47,000
transcends all human 
understanding, it doesn't make 

527
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:48,900
human sense. 
Cause those of us who have been 

528
00:33:48,900 --> 00:33:52,300
in turmoil and experience the 
peace of God, it makes no human 

529
00:33:52,300 --> 00:33:56,500
sense but aren't you thankful 
that it doesn't Because if it 

530
00:33:56,500 --> 00:34:01,800
made humans, since it would be 
human, but it is the piece in 

531
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:05,500
the perfect piece of Christ 
because what he did for us at 

532
00:34:05,500 --> 00:34:08,600
the cross. 
Did you know it ought to be that

533
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,699
piece that separates us from the
world. 

534
00:34:12,100 --> 00:34:14,000
It ought to be that piece. 
That separates us from the 

535
00:34:14,007 --> 00:34:17,100
world. 
Hundreds and hundreds of times. 

536
00:34:17,100 --> 00:34:19,800
The scripture tells us not to 
fear. 

537
00:34:22,699 --> 00:34:27,400
Yet the world is in constant 
fear and God wants us not to 

538
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:29,199
fear. 
That doesn't mean get your walk 

539
00:34:29,199 --> 00:34:32,600
by faith and not, not by fear 
hat, and put it on and pretend 

540
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:37,699
when you're really anxious. 
What it means to stop being 

541
00:34:37,699 --> 00:34:40,500
anxious. 
Stop being gripped by the lies 

542
00:34:40,500 --> 00:34:43,500
of the enemy stop being gripped,
by the things that you see and 

543
00:34:43,500 --> 00:34:45,100
walk in the Unseen. 
By faith. 

544
00:34:45,100 --> 00:34:48,100
The promises of God. 
We're seeing one here from God 

545
00:34:48,100 --> 00:34:49,600
through Jesus Christ. 
Right here. 

546
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:52,699
In Chapter 14 verse 27. 
It says perfect piece. 

547
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,000
Is yours. 
Sure. 

548
00:34:55,500 --> 00:34:56,900
I don't give to you as the world
gives. 

549
00:34:56,900 --> 00:34:57,800
It's in. 
Perfect, peace. 

550
00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:59,900
I give you perfect. 
Peace, it's constant. 

551
00:34:59,900 --> 00:35:03,600
And it's unwavering It's beyond 
your human understanding and it 

552
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:06,500
ought to be the thing that sets 
you apart from this lost Wicked 

553
00:35:06,500 --> 00:35:08,300
World. 
Well the world ought to look to 

554
00:35:08,308 --> 00:35:12,000
the believer. 
And events such as we have had 

555
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:15,500
in modern history. 
They ought to be asking the 

556
00:35:15,500 --> 00:35:17,200
question. 
Why are you not afraid? 

557
00:35:18,100 --> 00:35:20,300
Why are you not bothered by 
this? 

558
00:35:20,700 --> 00:35:23,100
Who which we ought to reply? 
Our hope is built on nothing 

559
00:35:23,100 --> 00:35:25,600
less than Jesus blood and 
righteousness, I dare not trust 

560
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:29,000
the sweetest frame but wholly 
lean on Jesus name, on Christ, 

561
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,200
the solid rock. 
I stand all other ground is what

562
00:35:32,700 --> 00:35:37,200
sinking said we live in a world 
of sinking sand in the world 

563
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,400
lights for you to fear with them
that they are going to sink. 

564
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,300
But I assure you this because of
Christ in the consistency and 

565
00:35:43,300 --> 00:35:46,300
the constant Peace, that he 
gives us, we don't have to 

566
00:35:46,300 --> 00:35:48,800
succumb to syncing to anxiety 
and fear. 

567
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:55,200
To be gripped by it. 
Claim to know Christ in to be 

568
00:35:55,200 --> 00:36:00,700
gripped by fear and anxiety is 
to fail in your understanding of

569
00:36:00,700 --> 00:36:06,000
God's perfect. 
Peace. when a Christian 

570
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:15,000
willfully chooses to live a life
in fear, He by proxy says this. 

571
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:18,800
God's peace. 
That was offered to me. 

572
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:22,800
And Christ is not greater. 
Than what I'm going through. 

573
00:36:26,100 --> 00:36:28,300
Oh, I know this. 
I know I'm not going to be 

574
00:36:28,300 --> 00:36:31,700
popular for repeating the words 
of Christ. 

575
00:36:31,700 --> 00:36:34,100
That's what I get the most 
ridicule for. 

576
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,400
But it's time that Christian 
step up and say, here's what we 

577
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:40,700
believe. 
And we believe this because 

578
00:36:40,700 --> 00:36:46,300
Jesus the Christ promised this 
to us, We believe it and his 

579
00:36:46,300 --> 00:36:49,800
promises are all true. 
Not some of them all of them. 

580
00:36:50,900 --> 00:36:53,800
To be gripped by fear and 
anxiety is to fail in our 

581
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:57,000
understanding of God's perfect. 
Peace either, his piece is 

582
00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,500
perfect or it's not. 
You don't understand how big my 

583
00:37:00,500 --> 00:37:03,000
problem is. 
You obviously don't understand 

584
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:06,400
how big God is. 
Because I assure you this every 

585
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:10,200
single one of your problem. 
But the enemy has made, you 

586
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,600
think you're the only one who 
has that particular problem. 

587
00:37:15,500 --> 00:37:17,900
Every single one of your 
problem. 

588
00:37:19,100 --> 00:37:26,300
Shrinks in comparison to the 
goodness of God. this piece is 

589
00:37:26,300 --> 00:37:32,200
constant and unwavering Jesus 
shows us the promised peace of 

590
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,200
Christ. 
The personal peace of Christ, 

591
00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:38,100
the perfect peace of Christ. 
It should separate us from all 

592
00:37:38,100 --> 00:37:39,800
of the unbelievers in this 
world. 

593
00:37:41,700 --> 00:37:43,000
But then we move to the next 
section. 

594
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:51,200
I'll close with this. 
He says they're in 27. 

595
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:52,900
Peace, I leave with you. 
My peace. 

596
00:37:52,900 --> 00:37:55,300
I give you. 
I do not give to you as the 

597
00:37:55,300 --> 00:37:57,300
world gives. 
Do not let your hearts be 

598
00:37:57,300 --> 00:38:03,900
troubled, and do not be afraid. 
Do not let your hearts be 

599
00:38:03,900 --> 00:38:08,100
troubled. 
And do not be afraid that 

600
00:38:08,300 --> 00:38:09,700
teaches us some things, doesn't 
it? 

601
00:38:09,700 --> 00:38:14,200
If we look at the text, and it's
clear and obvious since it 

602
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:19,300
teaches us this, that a 
Christian could Be consumed by 

603
00:38:19,300 --> 00:38:22,800
their fears. 
That could be consumed by worry 

604
00:38:23,500 --> 00:38:27,600
that could be consumed by 
anxiety but they shouldn't. 

605
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:30,700
They should have been, why 
should they not? 

606
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,300
Because here we see an 
imperative from the Lord. 

607
00:38:34,300 --> 00:38:37,100
If you know anything about the 
structure of Greek language, 

608
00:38:37,100 --> 00:38:40,400
this is the imperative mood. 
He is giving a command. 

609
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:47,100
And he says, do not let your 
hearts be troubled and do not be

610
00:38:47,100 --> 00:38:48,300
afraid. 
Now, we learned just a few 

611
00:38:48,300 --> 00:38:50,400
lessons to go, if you love him, 
you'll want your obey his 

612
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:54,100
command. 
You mean to tell me in less than

613
00:38:54,500 --> 00:38:56,800
probably 10 or 12 versus. 
You don't believe that anymore. 

614
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:01,800
What commands we talked about 
it, everything that he said, 

615
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:06,300
He's telling his disciples here,
in the form of a command. 

616
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,600
Do not let your hearts. 
Be troubled. 

617
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:11,600
Why? 
Because we have no reason to be 

618
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:13,100
troubled of the things of this 
world. 

619
00:39:13,100 --> 00:39:15,500
Our citizenship does not rest 
here. 

620
00:39:15,500 --> 00:39:18,700
This is not our home. 
We are journeying through this 

621
00:39:18,700 --> 00:39:23,300
Cesspool to be taken to the 
Glorious city of God when we see

622
00:39:23,300 --> 00:39:27,000
that. when we see the truth of 
that, when we dressed in the 

623
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:33,100
truth of that, when we practice 
that, Other piece, is it? 

624
00:39:33,107 --> 00:39:34,400
The practice piece is telling 
them. 

625
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,700
You've got the practices, you've
got to walk in the news. 

626
00:39:37,700 --> 00:39:40,300
Jesus teaching them in order to 
experience the perfect peace of 

627
00:39:40,300 --> 00:39:42,800
Christ that I am giving to you. 
That is my piece. 

628
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:45,700
You must constantly walk in the 
spirit. 

629
00:39:46,700 --> 00:39:49,600
How's Ali walk in the spirit as 
a spirit has provided for you? 

630
00:39:49,900 --> 00:39:53,600
My peace. 
Many failed to appropriate the 

631
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:55,700
Peace of Christ in their life. 
What does that mean? 

632
00:39:55,700 --> 00:39:59,200
You don't apply it. 
Oh, no one would argue. 

633
00:40:00,100 --> 00:40:02,600
Did he give it? 
Well yeah, he said he did. 

634
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:08,900
Let me ask you this question. 
Are you appropriating it? 

635
00:40:09,900 --> 00:40:12,200
I'll did you know that's the 
major breakdown in the American 

636
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:13,900
church. 
We know the promises of God but 

637
00:40:13,900 --> 00:40:15,300
we appropriate. 
None of them. 

638
00:40:16,300 --> 00:40:18,800
We get mad at the preacher when 
he brings out obvious truth that

639
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:22,600
Christ spoke because they 
contradict our way of thinking 

640
00:40:23,700 --> 00:40:25,700
on a set of admitting that you 
think like the world and 

641
00:40:25,700 --> 00:40:28,000
repenting of that, you get mad 
at the messenger. 

642
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:31,600
I would say this to you today. 
This is not my message. 

643
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:38,300
I simply taking one verse John 
chapter, 14 written in red to 

644
00:40:38,300 --> 00:40:44,300
those Christ loves so that they 
don't remain in anxiety and 

645
00:40:44,300 --> 00:40:49,000
fear, like the rest of this 
world who is perishing, but they

646
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:52,400
would walk and hope and 
Supernatural peace that he has 

647
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:56,500
given to us. 
He says, do not let your hearts 

648
00:40:56,500 --> 00:40:59,000
be troubled, and do not be 
afraid. 

649
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,000
The Peace of Christ for the 
believer, write this down must 

650
00:41:02,100 --> 00:41:06,500
Be embraced as a reality. 
It must be embraced as a 

651
00:41:06,508 --> 00:41:07,800
reality. 
Write it down. 

652
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:11,700
Write it outside John 14:27. 
And put an arrow that says 

653
00:41:11,700 --> 00:41:14,600
Embrace this reality because I 
assure you of this, if you don't

654
00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:18,700
embrace the reality that he is 
speaking of here, you're going 

655
00:41:18,700 --> 00:41:22,000
to buy into all of the lies of 
Satan and the society in which 

656
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:28,400
you live embrace the reality. 
What Christ is promising here? 

657
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:35,000
His peace must be seen. 
As a greater reality than your 

658
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:39,700
thoughts fears. 
I told you before anxiety, is 

659
00:41:39,700 --> 00:41:42,300
worrying about something that 
may happen in the future and may

660
00:41:42,300 --> 00:41:48,300
not Shirley. 
Surely you can trust in the 

661
00:41:48,300 --> 00:41:53,700
reality of the promises of 
Christ and embrace that reality.

662
00:41:55,300 --> 00:41:59,500
Because for you to Bow and to 
fear and anxiety, write this 

663
00:41:59,500 --> 00:42:04,700
down. 
Is for you bow to an idol. 

664
00:42:04,700 --> 00:42:07,200
That Satan has provided for you 
to worship. 

665
00:42:08,900 --> 00:42:12,100
You say well Pastor, I don't 
know who you think you are. 

666
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:15,400
Oh, it's not the system of the 
enemy. 

667
00:42:17,100 --> 00:42:21,000
Designed and created according 
to Isaiah chapter, 14, so that 

668
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,200
people will be deceived and to 
bow down to him. 

669
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,700
Instead of the one, true and 
living God, was not bad. 

670
00:42:25,700 --> 00:42:30,600
His desire at his fall. 
Oh, you bet it was And he is 

671
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:35,200
constantly having many even in 
the church who are bowing down 

672
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:40,200
to fear and bowing down to 
anxiety and putting those things

673
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:43,300
before God. 
I take you back to Jesus and he 

674
00:42:43,300 --> 00:42:44,800
said, if you love me, you will 
obey my commands. 

675
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:47,600
And you know, one of those 
commands is have no other gods 

676
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:50,100
before me. 
I'll preach. 

677
00:42:50,100 --> 00:42:52,800
I don't like to think of the 
anxiety as another God. 

678
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:54,900
Well, he's, it's bigger than God
in your life. 

679
00:42:54,900 --> 00:42:57,000
Why would you not consider 
another God? 

680
00:42:58,700 --> 00:43:01,500
Is become an idol to so many 
fear has gripped them. 

681
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:04,200
They wake up every morning not 
rejoicing in the lord. 

682
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:06,900
Always as Paul said they wake up
every morning. 

683
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:11,000
Shredding life dreading what lie
ahead, here's the thing, no 

684
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:15,100
matter what lies ahead for us, 
listen, Believers salvation is 

685
00:43:15,100 --> 00:43:18,600
the end result. 
We will be whole and we will be 

686
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:23,200
complete in the presence of God 
because of Jesus Christ forever 

687
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:26,200
embrace the reality of the 
promise of Christ. 

688
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:30,600
The how do you do that by love? 
Loving the word of God, Psalm 

689
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:34,800
119 the psalmist says this. 
In verse 165, great peace have 

690
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:37,900
they who love your law all 
talking about the word of God 

691
00:43:37,900 --> 00:43:41,300
the scriptures and nothing can 
make them stumble. 

692
00:43:42,300 --> 00:43:44,300
You want peace in his life. 
Fall in love with the word of 

693
00:43:44,300 --> 00:43:47,000
God get in and see the promises 
of God Rest in them. 

694
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:51,800
Well I'd rather not rest. 
You might want to search your 

695
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,900
heart. 
Because there's no greater 

696
00:43:54,900 --> 00:43:57,500
Comfort than the to the believer
than to know that the true peace

697
00:43:57,500 --> 00:44:02,600
of God. 
The reality of that rests in and

698
00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,800
on and through Us in every 
situation that we face in life. 

699
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:07,800
How do I know that? 
Because the word of God promises

700
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:14,300
me that Brace peace as a 
reality, by loving the word of 

701
00:44:14,300 --> 00:44:15,700
God, by living out the word of 
God. 

702
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:17,900
Again, appropriating it does 
you? 

703
00:44:17,900 --> 00:44:19,700
No good to memorize all the 
scripture in the world into 

704
00:44:19,700 --> 00:44:24,900
applying none of it. 
He says, do not let your heart, 

705
00:44:24,900 --> 00:44:26,500
be troubled. 
You want to battle against your 

706
00:44:26,500 --> 00:44:28,100
anxiety. 
Don't go to the doctor. 

707
00:44:28,900 --> 00:44:34,700
Find the cure for your anxiety. 
Go to your knees, open the word 

708
00:44:34,700 --> 00:44:36,500
of God. 
See the truth of the word of 

709
00:44:36,500 --> 00:44:40,000
God. 
Do not let your heart be 

710
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,800
troubled, believe in the reality
of the promise of Christ. 

711
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:44,700
Who said do not let your heart. 
Be troubled. 

712
00:44:44,700 --> 00:44:48,700
Why? 
Because my peace resides in you 

713
00:44:52,700 --> 00:44:55,700
I know. 
The emails will be coming. 

714
00:44:58,500 --> 00:45:00,700
That's why there's that little 
trash can on the side of the 

715
00:45:00,700 --> 00:45:06,400
email. 
One might say this. 

716
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:10,000
That they believe that Jesus 
brings peace in the midst of the

717
00:45:10,008 --> 00:45:13,000
storm, but then their thrust in 
the midst of the storm. 

718
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:16,400
And they change their mind. 
It's easy for us to say, Jesus 

719
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:20,400
brings peace. 
When the Seas look like glass. 

720
00:45:23,900 --> 00:45:25,700
Do you trust in the reality of 
what he said? 

721
00:45:25,700 --> 00:45:28,300
Peace and all circumstances, 
piece that overcomes your 

722
00:45:28,300 --> 00:45:31,500
greatest fear. 
And again, isn't that what 

723
00:45:31,500 --> 00:45:34,500
anxiety really is? 
At the end of the day fear, I 

724
00:45:34,508 --> 00:45:35,700
hear people talk to me all the 
time. 

725
00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:37,400
I don't know what it is. 
I'm just overwhelmed and I'm 

726
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:39,500
gripped by fear does all of a 
sudden comes out of nowhere. 

727
00:45:39,500 --> 00:45:40,900
It doesn't, it comes from the 
enemy. 

728
00:45:42,900 --> 00:45:44,800
I'm just not afraid to tell you 
the truth. 

729
00:45:45,700 --> 00:45:47,900
It comes from the enemy, because
if he can keep you gripped, by 

730
00:45:47,900 --> 00:45:51,800
your fear, you will not enjoy 
the fellowship of Christ in the 

731
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:53,800
piece that he has, given you to 
walk in. 

732
00:45:56,000 --> 00:46:00,400
Bracelets reality. 
And then the Peace of Christ 

733
00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:02,900
Bill must be embraced as 
reality. 

734
00:46:02,900 --> 00:46:07,400
Must be exercised relentlessly. 
I assure you of this, the devil 

735
00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:11,400
is not hesitating to attack you 
in the realm of anxiety and 

736
00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:12,900
fear. 
Do you remember the statistics 

737
00:46:12,900 --> 00:46:15,900
that we started with? 
The world. 

738
00:46:17,300 --> 00:46:19,400
It's being attacked by it 
constantly. 

739
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:25,900
And so we must exercise the 
Peace of Christ relentlessly. 

740
00:46:26,300 --> 00:46:28,900
Matthew chapter 6. 
Jesus gives us some instructions

741
00:46:28,900 --> 00:46:31,400
about worry and anxiety. 
He says, this in 25. 

742
00:46:32,100 --> 00:46:34,300
Therefore, I tell you here's 
that phrase. 

743
00:46:34,300 --> 00:46:38,700
Again, do not worry about your 
life, what you will eat or 

744
00:46:38,700 --> 00:46:42,900
drink, how you will die, or how 
you will live, or how you eat, 

745
00:46:42,900 --> 00:46:44,600
he's going to take care of all 
those things. 

746
00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:46,600
Watch this. 
Watch the promises of Christ. 

747
00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:49,300
Are they real? 
Are you just here this morning 

748
00:46:49,300 --> 00:46:53,500
playing a game? 
He says or about your body what 

749
00:46:53,500 --> 00:46:56,700
you will wear is not life, more 
important than food and the body

750
00:46:56,700 --> 00:46:59,500
more important than clothes. 
Look at the birds of the air. 

751
00:46:59,500 --> 00:47:03,000
They do not sow or reap or store
away in Barns and yet your 

752
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:06,500
heavenly father feeds them. 
I assure you the birds right now

753
00:47:06,500 --> 00:47:09,400
out there who are eating the 
acorns that have fallen from the

754
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:12,400
trees as they're not gripped 
with anxiety. 

755
00:47:13,300 --> 00:47:17,800
They know that the wind blew the
acorn fell and they are now 

756
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,900
consuming from the very hand of 
God, if she has promised to take

757
00:47:20,900 --> 00:47:23,700
care of even though, Them. 
Are you not much more valuable 

758
00:47:23,700 --> 00:47:25,800
than they. 
The Lord says to his Believers 

759
00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:29,400
to his followers. 
Who of You by worrying can add a

760
00:47:29,408 --> 00:47:31,900
single hour to his life. 
I can assure you this none of 

761
00:47:31,900 --> 00:47:35,100
you. 
None of you can add to your life

762
00:47:35,100 --> 00:47:37,000
by worrying. 
In fact, statistics and 

763
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:41,900
Medicine, even show this. 
You actually drive yourselves to

764
00:47:41,900 --> 00:47:45,900
death through your stress and 
you're worried and why do you 

765
00:47:45,900 --> 00:47:48,600
worry about clothes? 
See how the Lilies of the Field 

766
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,000
grow? 
They do not labor or spin yet? 

767
00:47:51,100 --> 00:47:52,700
I tell you that not even 
Solomon. 

768
00:47:52,700 --> 00:47:54,700
In all his Splendor was dressed 
like one of those. 

769
00:47:55,700 --> 00:47:58,500
If that is, how God clothes the 
grass of the field, which is 

770
00:47:58,500 --> 00:48:00,700
here today and tomorrow is 
thrown into the fire, will he 

771
00:48:00,700 --> 00:48:05,300
not much more clothe? 
You O ye Of little faith. 

772
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:08,500
How do you see the rebuke there 
from the Lord for the Warriors? 

773
00:48:08,500 --> 00:48:12,600
He says, o you of little faith. 
He then says in verse 31 again 

774
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,800
so do not worry saying, what 
shall we eat? 

775
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:18,300
Or what shall we drink? 
Or what shall we wear for the 

776
00:48:18,300 --> 00:48:21,900
pagans run after all these 
things and your heavenly father 

777
00:48:21,900 --> 00:48:25,100
knows that you need them. 
He said the pagans worry. 

778
00:48:27,100 --> 00:48:30,900
Why is the church worrying 
filled with anxiety? 

779
00:48:33,100 --> 00:48:34,400
Because it's modern Church 
culture. 

780
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:38,000
Has embraced all sorts of things
from the world. 

781
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,200
Haven't they? 
Why not Embrace Their Fear? 

782
00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:44,600
He goes on in verse 33 and he 
says, but seek first, his 

783
00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:46,800
kingdom and his righteousness, 
the kingdom of God, the 

784
00:48:46,808 --> 00:48:49,300
righteousness of God, and all 
these things will be given to 

785
00:48:49,300 --> 00:48:53,500
you as well. 
And he says this in verse 34, 

786
00:48:53,500 --> 00:48:58,300
therefore, because of what I 
told you at pagans are anxious. 

787
00:48:59,900 --> 00:49:01,100
And I take care of even the 
Birds. 

788
00:49:01,100 --> 00:49:04,200
I'm going to take care of you. 
Therefore, do not worry about 

789
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:08,500
tomorrow for tomorrow will worry
about itself. 

790
00:49:09,100 --> 00:49:12,000
Each day has enough trouble of 
its own. 

791
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:16,100
Oh, hasn't the enemy been very 
crafty? 

792
00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:19,500
And leading many of you to worry
about it. 

793
00:49:19,500 --> 00:49:21,800
Tomorrow that you're not 
guaranteed. 

794
00:49:22,300 --> 00:49:25,100
Did you know tomorrow is the 
biggest lie of the enemy. 

795
00:49:25,900 --> 00:49:28,500
None of us in this room are 
guaranteed a tomorrow. 

796
00:49:30,500 --> 00:49:31,900
That's why Christ has. 
Don't worry. 

797
00:49:34,300 --> 00:49:36,400
This was your last day on Earth.
Would you live it? 

798
00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:41,100
An anxious fear. 
Would you live in an excitement 

799
00:49:41,100 --> 00:49:43,100
knowing this? 
That when you close your eyes, 

800
00:49:43,100 --> 00:49:45,200
you will see your savior 
face-to-face? 

801
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:47,900
And isn't that what we should be
longing for isn't that the cure 

802
00:49:47,900 --> 00:49:50,100
to every fear and worry that we 
would have? 

803
00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:58,200
This Promise of peace from 
Christ must be exercised 

804
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:01,900
relentlessly. 
The psalmist said in Psalm 34 14

805
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:06,500
to seek peace and pursue it run 
after it. 

806
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:09,200
How many of you run after 
anxiety? 

807
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:11,300
Many of you turn the news on 
just to find out what it is that

808
00:50:11,300 --> 00:50:13,800
you can worry about today? 
What's going on now? 

809
00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:17,200
Your phone gives you this little
tone and all of a sudden the 

810
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:19,700
news is telling you the skies 
falling again, isn't it 

811
00:50:19,700 --> 00:50:21,900
interesting that even the 
weather channel has jumped on 

812
00:50:21,900 --> 00:50:25,000
this bandwagon? 
Right. 

813
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:27,200
There's going to be a quarter 
inch of rain. 

814
00:50:27,700 --> 00:50:30,200
They act as if Noah's flood is 
happening. 

815
00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:32,700
Again, it's a quarter inch of 
rain, we need it. 

816
00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:35,500
The farmers are thankful for and
I assure you, they want more 

817
00:50:35,500 --> 00:50:40,800
than that. 
Seek, peace and pursue it. 

818
00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:45,300
If you're not actively seeking, 
peace and pursuing a nice 

819
00:50:45,300 --> 00:50:47,600
through this anxiety is going to
seek you out. 

820
00:50:48,900 --> 00:50:53,200
Fear is going to seek you out. 
Worry is going to come at you 

821
00:50:54,100 --> 00:50:58,300
with full Fury. 
Resting. 

822
00:50:59,500 --> 00:51:02,400
As we exercise these things 
relentlessly in the peace of God

823
00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:05,900
in Christ. 
Oh, what a place to rest, rest 

824
00:51:05,900 --> 00:51:09,000
there. 
Resting there and remembering, 

825
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:10,500
Jesus promise, don't forget 
that. 

826
00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:12,400
What is he promised? 
He promised us. 

827
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:15,500
Peace constant piece 
Supernatural peace. 

828
00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:19,700
A piece of we can rest in a by 
10 dressed in that piece. 

829
00:51:19,700 --> 00:51:23,000
Remember what Jesus said, take 
him to the bank, I assure you. 

830
00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:25,900
He can cash every check. 
He has written. 

831
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:32,600
Hebrews chapter 12 tells us this
verse 2, it says to fix our eyes

832
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:37,300
on Jesus, the author and 
Perfecter of our faith to fix 

833
00:51:37,300 --> 00:51:42,600
our eyes on Jesus, the author 
and Perfecter of our faith, who 

834
00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:45,700
for the joy, that was set before
him, he endured the cross. 

835
00:51:45,700 --> 00:51:48,300
Scorning its shame and sat down 
at the right hand of the Throne 

836
00:51:48,300 --> 00:51:53,500
of God, he endured suffering so 
that you can walk in perfect, 

837
00:51:53,500 --> 00:51:59,700
peace, exercise, it relentlessly
walk in it, Peter reminds us in 

838
00:51:59,700 --> 00:52:03,800
Matthew chapter 14 Of just what 
happens when are anxious. 

839
00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:05,200
Thoughts. 
Get the best of us. 

840
00:52:05,900 --> 00:52:08,400
Matthew chapter, 14, we all are 
familiar with the story. 

841
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:12,300
I hope at least. 
In verse 29, we see as Peter 

842
00:52:12,300 --> 00:52:16,500
there before, 29 request of the 
Lord to come out on the water 

843
00:52:16,500 --> 00:52:18,500
because he saw the Lord 
approaching walking on the 

844
00:52:18,500 --> 00:52:20,100
water. 
He said, Lord, if that's, you 

845
00:52:20,100 --> 00:52:25,700
didn't me to come to you. 
There's 29. 

846
00:52:25,700 --> 00:52:28,900
Come he said, Lord said, okay, 
come on Peter, then Peter got 

847
00:52:28,900 --> 00:52:31,200
out of the boat, walked on the 
water. 

848
00:52:33,300 --> 00:52:40,500
And came toward Jesus. 
But when he saw the wind, he was

849
00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:44,300
afraid and beginning to sink 
Cried Out. 

850
00:52:44,300 --> 00:52:46,700
Lord, save me. 
Immediately Jesus reached out 

851
00:52:46,700 --> 00:52:48,600
his hand and caught him you of 
little faith. 

852
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:51,000
There's that phrase again. 
He said, why did you doubt? 

853
00:52:51,100 --> 00:52:52,900
You know why he doubted? 
It's obvious. 

854
00:52:52,900 --> 00:52:54,800
Why he doubted? 
Jesus is asking a rhetorical 

855
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:56,300
question. 
Why did he die out? 

856
00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:00,400
He became anxious, he took his 
eyes off of Christ. 

857
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:02,100
And what did he do? 
He started looking at the wind, 

858
00:53:02,100 --> 00:53:03,700
he started looking at the waves,
he started looking at 

859
00:53:03,707 --> 00:53:06,700
everything, crashing in around 
him, forgetting that the Savior 

860
00:53:06,700 --> 00:53:09,500
said, Peter come, let's take 
care of you. 

861
00:53:09,500 --> 00:53:11,100
Oh, how gracious? 
We see the Lord here. 

862
00:53:13,100 --> 00:53:14,900
Peter began to sink the Lord 
reached out and saved him. 

863
00:53:14,900 --> 00:53:16,700
Aren't you thankful that he 
doesn't just save you once that 

864
00:53:16,700 --> 00:53:18,600
he continually saves you from 
yourself. 

865
00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:21,500
Because we've all been there, 
haven't we? 

866
00:53:23,100 --> 00:53:24,800
We didn't have her eyes fixed on
Jesus. 

867
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:27,600
We fixed our eyes on, whatever 
it was that caused us to be 

868
00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:31,800
fearful whatever unchartered 
territory we had never been 

869
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:34,900
before. 
And I tell you this, the Peace 

870
00:53:34,900 --> 00:53:38,500
of Jesus Christ does not change 
with those variables in your 

871
00:53:38,500 --> 00:53:42,200
life. 
Piece of Jesus Christ. 

872
00:53:43,100 --> 00:53:44,800
It's perfect. 
It's complete. 

873
00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:46,900
It should be practiced. 
Exercise. 

874
00:53:46,900 --> 00:53:50,300
Relentlessly, not taking your 
eyes off of Jesus. 

875
00:53:51,100 --> 00:53:53,500
Fixing your eyes on him, the 
author and the Perfecter of your

876
00:53:53,500 --> 00:53:58,800
faith Isaiah 26:3. 
The prophet says this piece. 

877
00:54:00,300 --> 00:54:05,600
For the steadfast mind is for 
those who trust in the Lord. 

878
00:54:06,700 --> 00:54:09,200
Now watch what he says in Isaiah
26. 

879
00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:13,700
Verse 38, you will keep in 
perfect, peace, him, whose mind 

880
00:54:13,700 --> 00:54:20,500
is steadfast because he trusts 
in you, what an offer he is for 

881
00:54:20,500 --> 00:54:23,900
the steadfast mind who was 
trusting in Christ. 

882
00:54:24,900 --> 00:54:28,000
I can tell you what the opposite
of that is even for you who are 

883
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:31,000
believers here today. 
You begin to trust in what you 

884
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:35,100
see and not what, you know by 
faith. you're going to be 

885
00:54:35,100 --> 00:54:39,500
stripped of that piece, you're 
going to succumb to fear and 

886
00:54:39,500 --> 00:54:44,500
doubt and worry and anxiety and 
I'm sure if you go to the right 

887
00:54:44,500 --> 00:54:49,900
person who's really the wrong 
person, They'll tell you 15 

888
00:54:49,900 --> 00:54:52,500
different ways to treat it. 
Jesus says, there's only one 

889
00:54:55,300 --> 00:54:56,900
Come unto me. 
All you who are weary and heavy 

890
00:54:56,900 --> 00:54:58,400
laden. 
I'll give you rest. 

891
00:54:59,500 --> 00:55:01,100
You want peace. 
Come to Christ. 

892
00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:03,500
When the peace of God come to 
Christ. 

893
00:55:03,500 --> 00:55:05,400
You want peace with God, come to
Christ. 

894
00:55:06,100 --> 00:55:07,900
You want the peace? 
That surpasses, our transcends 

895
00:55:07,900 --> 00:55:11,200
all understanding it's found 
only in Christ and Christ Alone.

896
00:55:13,300 --> 00:55:16,900
Are you actively seeking that 
piece? 

897
00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:19,800
What did the believer? 
Paul says in Philippians chapter

898
00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,100
4, I read part of it or quoted 
part of it, a moment ago, but 

899
00:55:22,100 --> 00:55:25,100
verse 6 and 7 says this in 
chapter 4 Philippians, do not be

900
00:55:25,100 --> 00:55:29,300
anxious about anything. 
You don't understand Pastor. 

901
00:55:29,300 --> 00:55:33,600
Anything, maybe you don't 
understand the word anything. 

902
00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:39,100
It's pretty simple. 
It means anything in the Greek. 

903
00:55:40,100 --> 00:55:47,100
Nothing zilch nada He says do 
not be anxious about anything 

904
00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:52,300
but in everything by prayer and 
petition with Thanksgiving what 

905
00:55:52,300 --> 00:55:54,300
a statement with Thanksgiving 
but I'm in the midst of my 

906
00:55:54,300 --> 00:55:56,800
greatest Triumph, thank him for 
it, it's going to be your 

907
00:55:56,800 --> 00:56:00,400
greatest growth. 
It's going to be your greatest 

908
00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:02,700
growth. 
That's what James says, count it

909
00:56:02,700 --> 00:56:04,400
all joy. 
When You Face Trials of many 

910
00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:09,800
kinds, I'll be afraid. 
Rest in the Peace of Christ. 

911
00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:11,800
Do not be anxious about anything
but in everything by prayer and 

912
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:14,800
petition with Thanksgiving, 
we're reading as a staff Thomas 

913
00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:16,900
Watson's book, The Godly Man's 
picture. 

914
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:21,600
We read this week. 
How a Godly Man is a faithful 

915
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:25,600
man. 
Oh, I promise you this you want 

916
00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:28,200
your anxious thoughts and fears 
to go away? 

917
00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:32,100
It's you out of pen and paper 
and write down all the reasons 

918
00:56:32,100 --> 00:56:35,200
you have to be thankful unto God
in Jesus Christ. 

919
00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:38,400
And I promise you this, your 
fears from this world will 

920
00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:47,100
quickly pass away. 
Are you exercising, piece 

921
00:56:47,100 --> 00:56:48,600
relentlessly. 
Are you seeking it? 

922
00:56:50,100 --> 00:56:53,100
Because again, as I have said, 
the - with every one of these 

923
00:56:53,100 --> 00:56:55,800
points, I will say the negative 
with this one to be gripped by 

924
00:56:55,800 --> 00:57:00,900
fear and anxiety. 
Watch, this is to flagrantly. 

925
00:57:02,100 --> 00:57:07,600
Disregard the command of Jesus. 
Flagrantly disregard it is to 

926
00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:09,300
read. 
Do not let your heart be 

927
00:57:09,300 --> 00:57:12,800
troubled and do not be afraid. 
And to say, I want to do what I 

928
00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:14,800
want to do and I'm going to do 
what I want to do. 

929
00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:19,200
Anyways, can I tell you this? 
It's no different than you 

930
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:23,500
ignoring his command. 
Not to steal. 

931
00:57:24,800 --> 00:57:29,000
Not to murder. 
Not to commit adultery, not to 

932
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:33,200
covet. 
It's no different to ignore a 

933
00:57:33,207 --> 00:57:35,400
command is to ignore. 
Come and do you love him? 

934
00:57:35,500 --> 00:57:36,800
He said you will obey what I 
command. 

935
00:57:37,700 --> 00:57:40,600
Shortly after that, he said, do 
not let your hearts be troubled,

936
00:57:41,400 --> 00:57:45,000
and do not be afraid Master. 
You don't understand the reality

937
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:47,700
of a, my anxiety. 
You don't understand that the 

938
00:57:47,700 --> 00:57:53,400
deception of your anxiety, But 
you've never been anxious or 

939
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:58,700
discourage really think so. 
I'd let you try to do my job for

940
00:57:58,700 --> 00:58:00,300
a week, but I wouldn't wish that
on anyone. 

941
00:58:02,800 --> 00:58:10,200
What must I do? 
I must a believe the deception 

942
00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:16,500
of Satan and walk in it be 
destroyed or be the only true 

943
00:58:16,500 --> 00:58:22,700
option for the believer. 
Not let my heart be troubled and

944
00:58:22,700 --> 00:58:27,000
do not be afraid. 
Why can I do that? 

945
00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:29,200
Because of the promise. 
Peace of Christ. 

946
00:58:29,200 --> 00:58:31,900
He has promised me, peace. 
He's not going to fail and that 

947
00:58:31,900 --> 00:58:34,300
promise of how about the 
personal peace of Christ, 

948
00:58:34,300 --> 00:58:36,900
because the front of the piece 
that he gives me, is the exact 

949
00:58:36,900 --> 00:58:40,300
piece that sustained, Jesus 
himself, it lives inside of me. 

950
00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:43,800
Why would I ever friend in the 
face of death? 

951
00:58:46,100 --> 00:58:49,200
You didn't friend? 
But he rested in that piece. 

952
00:58:50,500 --> 00:58:54,300
O, the practiced, the promised, 
peace, the personal peace, the 

953
00:58:54,300 --> 00:58:56,200
perfect piece. 
Why do I not worry? 

954
00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:57,600
It's pieces. 
Perfect. 

955
00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:02,400
It's perfect. 
So I'm not experiencing that in 

956
00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:05,400
my life, you don't believe it, 
you don't have it. 

957
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:10,800
One, or the other. 
Then the practice piece of 

958
00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:12,000
Christ. 
I want to wake up every day and 

959
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:13,900
I want to practice his speech to
say Lord. 

960
00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:16,600
I don't know what's going to 
happen today. 

961
00:59:18,300 --> 00:59:20,700
But I asked your piece would 
guard my heart and whatever 

962
00:59:20,700 --> 00:59:24,100
happens today. 
Jesus said, Peace, I leave with 

963
00:59:24,100 --> 00:59:24,800
you. 
My peace. 

964
00:59:24,800 --> 00:59:26,800
I give you. 
I do not give to you as the 

965
00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:28,600
world gives. 
Do not let your hearts be 

966
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:33,200
troubled and do not be afraid we
were to put this in. 

967
00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:36,200
Simple terms as we prepare to 
close this out this morning. 

968
00:59:37,300 --> 00:59:41,800
I would tell you this. 
There's nowhere in this world. 

969
00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:46,100
There is nothing in this world 
that will bring you peace from 

970
00:59:46,100 --> 00:59:51,500
God. 
But Christ, In one can find 

971
00:59:51,500 --> 00:59:52,200
true. 
Peace. 

972
00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:54,600
Peace with God. 
Peace from God. 

973
00:59:57,300 --> 01:00:01,400
Only by the grace of God, which 
was offered to us at the cross 

974
01:00:01,400 --> 01:00:07,000
2000 years ago, where Jesus bled
and he died in our place, it is 

975
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:14,900
through this cruel sacrifice. 
That he has brought peace to all

976
01:00:15,600 --> 01:00:18,900
who will by faith trust in him 
peace in this life. 

977
01:00:20,100 --> 01:00:25,100
And peace for all eternity 
because of the promise that 

978
01:00:25,100 --> 01:00:29,800
Jesus makes here in John 14:27. 
So, I'd say this to you 

979
01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:34,900
believers. 
Rest your anxious Hearts rest, 

980
01:00:34,900 --> 01:00:38,100
your anxious hearts, and the 
peace, that surpasses all 

981
01:00:38,100 --> 01:00:44,100
understanding that is found in 
Christ, rest, in that piece to 

982
01:00:44,100 --> 01:00:45,800
the unbeliever, I would say to 
you. 

983
01:00:46,900 --> 01:00:50,700
You will not have pieced. 
You will not have peace. 

984
01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:56,700
Until you have Christ. 
My prayer for you is this that 

985
01:00:56,700 --> 01:01:01,800
today he would open graciously, 
open your eyes to your need for 

986
01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:04,400
him. 
And he would reveal to you that 

987
01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:06,800
you are a sinner and there is no
peace in your life but only 

988
01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:11,100
turmoil and judgment and wrath 
that awaits you and that today 

989
01:01:12,100 --> 01:01:15,300
as he shows you his grace and 
his Mercy he would Empower you 

990
01:01:15,300 --> 01:01:17,700
to cry out to Jesus and 
repentance. 

991
01:01:19,300 --> 01:01:22,700
That you would believe truly for
the very first time. 

992
01:01:24,100 --> 01:01:26,600
In Jesus Christ as your lord and
savior. 

993
01:01:26,600 --> 01:01:30,600
And that you would let your 
faith rest in him in the 

994
01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:33,100
finished work that he 
accomplished through his death, 

995
01:01:33,100 --> 01:01:38,200
his burial and his resurrection.
If you don't know, Christ. 

996
01:01:39,700 --> 01:01:43,700
You have no hope of peace. 
Perhaps you're anxious today, 

997
01:01:44,500 --> 01:01:48,300
full of anxiety as you've never 
surrendered to Christ. 

998
01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:51,600
Would you trust him today to 
forgive you of your sin to 

999
01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:53,500
cleanse? 
You from all unrighteousness? 

1000
01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:58,800
Would you be saved today? 
Christian rejoice in the piece 

1001
01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:01,300
that he died for you to have its
pray together. 

1002
01:02:01,300 --> 01:02:04,000
Father, in the name of Jesus, we
do come to you, thanking you for

1003
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:08,000
your truth. 
Lord, Your Truth cancels out 

1004
01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:11,400
every single lie. 
This world wants to tell us 

1005
01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:14,300
about this subject and we rest 
in your truth and your truth 

1006
01:02:14,300 --> 01:02:17,200
alone. 
What I pray for my brothers and 

1007
01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:21,100
sisters who are in Christ here 
today, they would hear your 

1008
01:02:21,100 --> 01:02:24,000
words. 
Do not let your heart be 

1009
01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:30,200
troubled and do not be afraid. 
And that they would trust and 

1010
01:02:30,200 --> 01:02:34,000
the perfect promised peace of 
Jesus Christ. 

1011
01:02:35,700 --> 01:02:39,400
They would walk out. 
Their Fear and their anxiety and

1012
01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:42,500
they're worried. 
They would walk and total peace 

1013
01:02:42,500 --> 01:02:45,700
with you and Lord, I pray for 
those who do not know Christ 

1014
01:02:45,700 --> 01:02:48,700
today. 
By your grace and your mercy. 

1015
01:02:50,100 --> 01:02:56,600
You would show them. 
You would show them that they 

1016
01:02:56,600 --> 01:03:00,800
are wretched in your sight 
because of their sin. and that 

1017
01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:04,100
they have great reason to fear 
of the Judgment that is to come 

1018
01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:08,500
But it is in you, and you alone 
to that this very day. 

1019
01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:13,100
Were they to turn their hearts 
to you in faith and repentance? 

1020
01:03:15,500 --> 01:03:19,200
Their Eternal Destiny. 
Not be a destiny of Wrath and 

1021
01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:22,500
hell, but a destiny of 
forgiveness and eternal life, 

1022
01:03:22,500 --> 01:03:25,200
because of what, you've 
promised, but you draw the 

1023
01:03:25,200 --> 01:03:27,800
center unto yourself today. 
And may they repent, and believe

1024
01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:29,600
on Christ as their lord and 
savior. 

1025
01:03:29,600 --> 01:03:31,600
We pray, and we ask these things
in Christ's name. 

1026
01:03:32,500 --> 01:03:35,900
Amen.
