You, we see that you made it. 4 00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:19,560 Your fingers are still there from lighting off fireworks and 5 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:23,400 stuff. So happy about that, Amen. 6 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,200 Coming in with all digits and all appendages. 7 00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:31,480 That's always A+, Amen.

You'll stand with me. 10 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:39,320 We're going to be turning to the Book of Second Kings. 11 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:44,640 Second Kings chapter #4. Men. 12 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,680 Take advantage of these services. 13 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:48,680 It was good to be back at Wednesday Night Bible. 14 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:51,800 Study this past week. Amen. 15 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,400 Struck a little vein there, Felt a witness in the spirit as. 16 00:00:55,400 --> 00:01:00,320 Was teaching Wednesday night. A different direction for Sunday 17 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,760 on Thursday actually was headed that way. 18 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,240 Read my Bible. On Independence Day and. 19 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,760 Felt a different direction for this morning. 20 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,160 Amen. I want the Lord to help us. 21 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,840 Going to read what to some. If you've been a part of church 22 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,160 for a good portion of your life, this story is not foreign to 23 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,120 you, but I'm perhaps going to come at it in just a little 24 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,360 different angle than what has typically been in in times. 25 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:31,080 Past. Second Kings chapter #4 And I 26 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:35,840 want to start reading with verse #1 The Bible says, Now there 27 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:40,080 cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the 28 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,520 prophets. And to Elisha saying, Thy 29 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:48,120 servant, my husband is dead, and thou knowest that thy servant 30 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,960 did feared the Lord. The creditor is come to take 31 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,760 unto him my two sons to be bondsman. 32 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:59,120 Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? 33 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,960 Tell me, what hast thou in the house? 34 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,840 And she said. Thine handmaid hath not anything 35 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:10,160 in the house save a pot of oil. Then he said, Go borrow the 36 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:14,320 vessels abroad of all thy neighbors, even empty vessels 37 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,920 borrow not a few. And when thou are come in, thou 38 00:02:17,920 --> 00:02:22,240 shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shall 39 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:26,600 pour out into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside that 40 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,000 which is full. So she went for from him. 41 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,520 And shut the door upon her, and upon her sons who brought. 42 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,560 The vessels to. Her and she poured out, and it 43 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,400 came to pass when the vessels were full. 44 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,200 And she said that she. Said unto her Son, Bring me yet 45 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,080 another vessel. And he said unto her, There is 46 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,200 not a vessel. More and the oil stayed. 47 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,400 Then she came and told the man of God, and he said, Go and sell 48 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:57,880 the oil, pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children of the 49 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,040 rest. Amen for a little. 50 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,640 While this morning. I want to minister this. 51 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:08,600 Redeeming the home. Redeeming the. 52 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,280 Home. Hallelujah. 53 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,040 Will you help me right now? Pray. 54 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,400 Amen. Father, we need you today. 55 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,960 God, we're thankful. Lord Jesus, for you, for your 56 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:23,720 spirit, God, your power, I pray. O Lord, let your word, God stand 57 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,400 up among us today. It doesn't need propped up. 58 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,480 It doesn't need help. Lord, it's powerful. 59 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,920 Lord Jesus, it's instructive. Lord, it's enlightening all by 60 00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:35,120 itself. I pray. 61 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,840 O Lord, today, minister to someone in this building, Lord, 62 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,440 or even our viewing audience online, let your word go forth. 63 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,760 And do that which is. Sent to accomplish in our lives 64 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,920 and will not fail to thank you and praise you for it. 65 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:53,320 In the lovely name of Jesus Christ that I pray Hallelujah 66 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,320 and the church say Amen. Amen. 67 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,560 You may be seated. This morning, redeeming the 68 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,360 home. Now, like many of you. 69 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,280 Today and, and bear with me a little bit here as I get 70 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:06,960 started. Bear with me in my folly. 71 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,920 Here just a little bit. I live in a different or in a 72 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,240 different era than the present era. 73 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,200 Like many that are in this audience that are older. 74 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,959 I just had a birthday that's older than myself, all right? 75 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,560 And so even several of you even live even in a. 76 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,880 Different era than when I grew up, but nonetheless. 77 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,600 I lived during the time when there were still door to door 78 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,360 salesman that was. Still a thing we we didn't have 79 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,480 digital ads. We didn't even have the 80 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,680 Internet. You know, we didn't have 81 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,400 anything like that. New, new. 82 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:44,240 Items that were going to be highlighted as as new goods or 83 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,480 as some type of new product. Sometimes you might find it. 84 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:51,320 Highlighted in a certain section of a newspaper, I'll show. 85 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,360 You one. After church, a newspaper, or or 86 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:59,000 you might hear about an ad on the radio of something that new. 87 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,800 That was that that. Was out there and then we had 88 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:06,560 big old Sears catalog. I remember the Sears catalogs 89 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,920 that was so big they rivaled the size of a family Bible. 90 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,040 I mean, I couldn't remember. Whenever Christmas time was 91 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,920 coming, you could look through a Sears catalog until the next 92 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,840 Christmas and before you got through all the pages. 93 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,800 And so since the primary advertiser was just word of 94 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:27,640 mouth, it wasn't unusual to have a stranger knock on your door 95 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,640 during daylight hours, hoping to demonstrate what came by our 96 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,800 neighborhood a lot. They wanted to show us the new 97 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:39,080 and the greatest vacuum cleaner, Brother Reese of how it cleanse 98 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,320 the floor. And, and I remember this 99 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:45,360 explicit explicitly, brother short that there were times and 100 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,160 my mom would allow me in and and they would throw down D 101 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,880 batteries, D batteries on the floor and they would suck those 102 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:55,760 things up just to show how strong of a suction that that 103 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,280 was. And, and, or if you lived in a 104 00:05:58,280 --> 00:06:02,160 more culture neighborhood that wasn't ours, but sometimes it 105 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,920 would come by with with with showing you the latest magazine. 106 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,640 Subscription that you could. Get so on and so forth. 107 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:10,840 And so since. We didn't live in the culture 108 00:06:10,840 --> 00:06:12,440 neighborhood. We had the vacuum. 109 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,600 Salesman and I I'm. Telling you this morning, my mom 110 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,640 would invite them in to demonstrate. 111 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:22,360 Because when you got a family of seven people and someone's 112 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,560 willing to come in and vacuum one of your floors, you're 113 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,240 hoping that they're going to do a load of laundry and maybe fix 114 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:29,800 dinner before it's all said and done. 115 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,880 I guarantee. You that and so. 116 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,760 We, we had them come in. And so over the years, though, 117 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:39,560 as time has shifted, the home has shifted from what used to be 118 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:44,400 a very semi public space to a more private space, a more 119 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:48,600 protected sanctuary. Even even the best of salesman 120 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:52,600 today, and I don't think there is hardly any would think twice 121 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,560 before they showed up at our homes with our no solicitation 122 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,560 signs and our five cameras that point at the front door and the 123 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,760 beware of dog and I support the Second Amendment sign. 124 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,280 You understand what I'm saying. They're they're not coming by 125 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,560 any of those things. As a matter of fact, today a 126 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:13,520 friendly knock at the door. We meet with a a air of. 127 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:17,200 Suspicion. Sometimes annoyance. 128 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:21,200 That's me. A few weeks back we had such a 129 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:22,880 knock at our door. Someone knocked at our. 130 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,840 Door and I wasn't aware. That it was a. 131 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,480 Prearranged visit but. I did what only a proper 132 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,000 homeowner in today's world does when there comes a unexpected. 133 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,360 Knock at the door. I appeared. 134 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:36,880 Around the corner of the. Window. 135 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,200 Right, because I had to decide in this moment, am I going to 136 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:47,760 give my attention to this knock or am I going to go prostate on 137 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,120 the floor and stay there till they. 138 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:55,680 Lose heart and walk away. You think I'm kidding? 139 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,920 Today, but typically. I'm telling you the truth. 140 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:02,120 In my home, if there is a knock in our house, I'm going to the 141 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,280 bedroom and assuming the fetal position. 142 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,640 That's absolutely right. And I'm waiting. 143 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:11,960 And I'm deferring to to misses personality and misses off the 144 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:13,920 charts. Extrovert tends to answer the 145 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,880 door. Yeah, you know, some of you live 146 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,160 and you know exactly where what I'm talking about. 147 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:24,680 But I reckon I recognized it was a neighbor. 148 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,560 Of ours. And so I'm still. 149 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,600 Puzzled, and it's no doubt upon my face tag that I'm. 150 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,720 Puzzled and so. She opened, I opened the door 151 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,240 and I greeted her, and she began to explain to me that Dawn had 152 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,480 made the arrangement. It had to be on my face in 153 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,480 order. For her to say that that Dawn 154 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,600 had made the. Arrangement and and my face. 155 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:47,360 Was probably saying it all and so I soon changed though my my 156 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,880 my demeanor and everything because she handed me a half 157 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:55,400 half sphere of a freshly baked bread with a little linen around 158 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:55,800 it. I'm like. 159 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,000 Oh yeah. So Don arranged it. 160 00:08:59,000 --> 00:08:59,960 I. Didn't know about. 161 00:08:59,960 --> 00:09:02,320 It and I just recently. Got home but. 162 00:09:02,560 --> 00:09:06,360 But in the past, unannounced visits were just part of 163 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:10,080 everyday life. You didn't call or text 'cause 164 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,320 you didn't have a phone on you all the time. 165 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,680 And if you were already in the area, it's not like you were 166 00:09:16,680 --> 00:09:19,560 going to find a pay phone to deposit money in it and call 167 00:09:19,560 --> 00:09:21,160 them and see if. Somebody was home. 168 00:09:21,560 --> 00:09:26,400 You just drove by and you. Showed up, it might be dinner 169 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,120 time, they might be in the middle of the project. 170 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,200 I can tell you the number of times people came by our house 171 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,160 growing up. And Mom's like, well, let me fix 172 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:34,840 some sweet. Tea you want to stay for dinner 173 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,680 if someone came by my house today, I'm waiting to see if 174 00:09:38,680 --> 00:09:40,680 they leave before I fix my dinner. 175 00:09:46,420 --> 00:09:48,500 That's not how trace. That's not how I. 176 00:09:48,500 --> 00:09:53,880 Operate today. A few years ago, I'm not shared 177 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,120 this with y'all with you, but my wife and I were out West and we 178 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,320 were ministering out West and there was a church that we were 179 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,720 preaching for out there and the pastor on that Saturday. 180 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,520 Spent a lot of time. Grill and I mean, he had steaks 181 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,680 out there and and and baked potatoes wrapped in tinfoil in 182 00:10:09,680 --> 00:10:11,600 the grill and it was it was going like all day. 183 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,720 And it's like, man. He he just had all. 184 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,800 Kinds of food more than what we was going to be able to eat and 185 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,840 I I just thought he was pulling out. 186 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,240 All the stops of hospitality. You know, to make us welcome and 187 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:24,760 such and. Then we sat. 188 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:29,880 Down in their house to eat and folks, it was like a revolving 189 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,240 door. People didn't even knock on 190 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:33,880 their door. They would just walk in their 191 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:38,000 house from the church and they might get a steak and a potato. 192 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,520 They might sit there at the counter or eat at the counter, 193 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,840 make some conversation or said that I'm sitting here and 194 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:44,720 thinking what? In the world is going on. 195 00:10:45,560 --> 00:10:48,360 I mean, they're entering and leaving, maybe staying 5 minutes 196 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,280 or 10 minutes, you know, look at me. 197 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:51,960 Pasta salad. You know I didn't. 198 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:53,960 Know they were coming I mean just. 199 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,160 In and out and all that, just as easily as they. 200 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,120 Came shooting the breeze, maybe not even eating at all, just 201 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,800 showing up. But that was their cultural 202 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,840 norm. That was their church cultural 203 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,200 norm. But the expectation of privacy 204 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:12,800 at home, it's evolved over time. It's evolved from from a 205 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:17,160 preference to Now it's almost a social norm for the privacy of 206 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:17,840 the. Home. 207 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,800 But not all the privacy a home provides has. 208 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:26,320 Been beneficial either. As much as people want their. 209 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:30,040 Homes to be sanctuaries. There's several experiences that 210 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:34,040 take place in the context of the home that is polar opposite. 211 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:35,840 To that, just walk with me for a little while. 212 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,480 Today, the World Health Organization Violence against 213 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,480 women. An article they published. 214 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:45,040 In 2021, reported that globally, one in three women experience 215 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,680 physical or sexual violence. Often at the. 216 00:11:47,680 --> 00:11:51,680 Hands of someone in their home, thus turning their. 217 00:11:51,680 --> 00:11:56,520 Home into a prison. Child help reports of the child 218 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,800 is abused every 10 seconds in the. 219 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:03,600 US, often by their caregivers. And so that place that was meant 220 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,480 to nurture them becomes a place of fear and a place of 221 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:11,840 brokenness, Bewildered even today to share this with you. 222 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:17,880 Victims of human trafficking are regularly uncovered as operating 223 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:22,720 out of suburban homes. And so when you have those type 224 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,480 of things that happen within the context of your privacy or 225 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:31,760 sanctuary, so to speak, that changes a person's view of home. 226 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,760 When kitchen tables become the place where kids see their 227 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,440 parents do a line of crack cocaine and rather than be in a 228 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,320 place where they share a meal, that changes the perspective of 229 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,440 home. It's in those moments that home 230 00:12:46,560 --> 00:12:53,520 can feel broken and home can feel, if you will, incomplete. 231 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:57,600 Some even today, I believe even in this church this morning, 232 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:02,920 have come from places where home has been scene of some of your. 233 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:07,080 Deepest pain. And some of your deepest hurts. 234 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:10,520 And I suspect this morning, Bishop, that that's that's a 235 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:14,280 little bit of the tragedy of the event in the scripture that I 236 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:19,000 read to you this morning, because this woman and her sons 237 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:26,080 are facing a domestic problem. They're facing a home problem. 238 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:30,000 Her husband, their father, has died. 239 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:35,320 The Scripture tells us her sons are on the verge of being taken 240 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:40,560 away by the creditor to become enslaved, to work off the debt, 241 00:13:40,560 --> 00:13:43,040 perhaps of their father and their own. 242 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:47,360 She feels, the Bible says, whenever she replies to Elijah, 243 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:51,720 she feels like in her home, there's nothing left. 244 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:58,440 This, this, this sanctuary, this place where conversation should 245 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,120 take place, love should happen, all these things. 246 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:05,880 She feels like there's nothing left to her, and also probably 247 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,480 to her. Sons as well it. 248 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:14,320 Seemed like her home had nothing to offer, nothing at all. 249 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:18,800 And you got to understand this morning what happened here, 250 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:22,400 happened at home. Just walk with me a little bit. 251 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,560 Typically in the Old Testament we read the scripture. 252 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,080 You can do. It you read through your Bible 253 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:31,320 every year and as you read, typically whenever somebody dies 254 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:35,600 away from home, the scripture is usually very good about 255 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,080 informing. Us about that. 256 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,760 It's usually very good. Telling us about. 257 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,040 That when you read that. Saul died it. 258 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:47,080 Tells us that he died in battle on Mount Gabola. 259 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:51,520 Hey man, it tells us that whenever Rachel died, the Bible 260 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:54,000 says she died on the journey she was. 261 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:57,080 At home. She was in route, and the Bible 262 00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,680 gives us that information whenever we read in Scripture 263 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,200 that Abel was slain by his brother. 264 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:07,240 He was slain by him in a field. He tell the Bible tells us 265 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,080 specifically that it wasn't at his. 266 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:14,160 Home, we're told that yeah. In this scripture, we are simply 267 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:18,320 told by the widow that her husband is dead. 268 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:24,320 No causes mentioned, no location is mentioned, no context is 269 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:29,120 mentioned, and so since we don't have no additional additional 270 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:35,520 details given, it suggests that it likely happened at home. 271 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:41,280 Just just I, I remember as a young man, I. 272 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:45,040 Was in my senior. Year of high school and I 273 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,120 understand the imprint of a loss in a home. 274 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:52,920 What that can do. My mom cared for my Grandma 275 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:56,880 McGee in our home until she died. 276 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:01,760 Grandma was dying of cancer. I was the last child to live at 277 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:05,240 home. My senior year there. 278 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:10,440 Was my bedroom and a door and right across there was the room 279 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:15,640 where my grandma was laying. As a matter of fact, if the door 280 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:19,960 would be left open, Tracy, I could lay in my bed and peer 281 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:24,880 straight into that bedroom of the woman that's laying in her 282 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,640 bed dying. I remember as a young man 283 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:32,480 hearing the death rattles just across the way. 284 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:39,200 I could see into her room. Hey, man, that that affects you. 285 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,760 The restroom in that house was virtually in that room where 286 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:46,120 Grandma. Was. 287 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:50,400 There wasn't a time after that that if I allowed myself, I 288 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:56,600 could envision her deteriorating body in that space because we 289 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,400 had suffered the loss of her in that house. 290 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,240 And I was very young and impressionable. 291 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,319 I still remember, and even as I was putting this together, I 292 00:17:04,319 --> 00:17:07,000 remember the the, the coroner, Amen. 293 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,560 With her on the bed, taking her out through those different 294 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,240 rooms of the house. There's just something that 295 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,359 stays with you. And that's what I experienced as 296 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:21,520 a 17 year old young boy, a man going to be graduating from high 297 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,680 school. So you got to understand she and 298 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:31,240 her sons had witnessed the death of a loved one in their home. 299 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,920 And not only have they experienced the loss in their 300 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:39,520 home, but the Bible tells us now they are experiencing the 301 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:45,200 accumulating debt of their home and they're experiencing, if you 302 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,200 will, the lack that they have in their home. 303 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,040 Where there was once maybe well furnished shelves, now those 304 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:56,120 shelves are being stripped with each passing day and they are 305 00:17:56,120 --> 00:17:58,560 more and more bare. Amen. 306 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:02,840 Their children, her children, her sons are recognizing that 307 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,720 and experiencing that in their home. 308 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:10,720 There's a daily depletion of their goods that's happening in 309 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,920 their house. So matter of fact, the Bible. 310 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:16,520 Doesn't tell us I. I don't know how old these sons 311 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:20,800 were, but we might be able to infer today that they're old 312 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:25,560 enough to understand debt and to be taken by creditors for for, 313 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:30,960 but they're also young enough to be vulnerable from the trauma of 314 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:35,520 losing the father and feel the threat of enslavement upon 315 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:37,960 their. Lives, and this was in the. 316 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:41,720 Context of their home in that home. 317 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:46,320 They witnessed loss they had. Grieved there, they had seen the 318 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:47,960 tears. Fall off their mama's. 319 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,080 Face and their own. Face and hit the. 320 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,360 Floor there they had witnessed the lack of. 321 00:18:53,360 --> 00:18:56,880 Things they felt the. Stress and the burden and the 322 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,840 pressure of not having enough in. 323 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:03,760 That home they witnessed the. Fear of a weeping. 324 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,680 Mom and approaching creditors and. 325 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:10,240 All of the dynamics. Was taking place within their. 326 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:15,760 Home. Domestically, life had been 327 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:21,840 difficult in their house. Someone say glory. 328 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:27,240 Because all the losses seem to pertain to the. 329 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:36,280 House death there, death there, depletion there soon detainment 330 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:42,360 of the sons from there. This is the reason why I feel my 331 00:19:42,360 --> 00:19:43,880 help. Coming here just a little bit. 332 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,680 This is the reason. Why Amen, when everything had 333 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:53,840 been explained to Elijah about the death and the debt and the. 334 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:57,280 Creditor that Elijah asked this question. 335 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,360 What do you have in? Your house. 336 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:05,440 And when that mom, when that widow stared back at his? 337 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:10,360 Face and said nothing. He understood that the house 338 00:20:10,360 --> 00:20:13,400 needed some healing, that the house needed some. 339 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,520 Sad that the house. Needed a characterization. 340 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,960 Change. It became the center. 341 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:25,960 It became the center focus. Can I tell you it's interesting 342 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,560 to denote? That when that widow stayed at 343 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:33,280 all those things, Elisha didn't say, Well, let's get up a mule. 344 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:37,320 And get your boys together and let's get to the temple that's 345 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,920 in Jerusalem. He wasn't taking her to a 346 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,160 temple. He wasn't taking her to a 347 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:45,640 Tabernacle, no. He says you go back. 348 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:46,960 Home. You. 349 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:58,000 He says, listen here, honey, you go back home not because the 350 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:02,160 temple is unimportant, the temple is important, he says, 351 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:06,200 but you go back home because what you need is a domestic 352 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,000 miracle, because. You got a domestic problem. 353 00:21:09,360 --> 00:21:12,120 What you need is. Something that happened within 354 00:21:12,120 --> 00:21:13,760 the. Confines of that house. 355 00:21:14,120 --> 00:21:17,680 Amen to balance out. All of the dilemmas, all of the 356 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:21,560 laws, all of the grief. All of the heartache that you've 357 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:31,950 experienced in that home. I'm not undermining the temple. 358 00:21:31,950 --> 00:21:36,070 We need the temple, we read. The day of Pentecost was fully 359 00:21:36,070 --> 00:21:37,990 common. They received the baptism of the 360 00:21:37,990 --> 00:21:40,310 Holy Ghost. And they continued the apostles 361 00:21:40,310 --> 00:21:42,350 doctrine, and in. Fellowship and breaking the 362 00:21:42,350 --> 00:21:45,190 bread and prayer. We read all that the Bible says 363 00:21:45,190 --> 00:21:49,630 that they continued in the temple but also in house. 364 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,680 There's got to be a good. Measure of balance. 365 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:58,640 Of God's Spirit and power in the temple and at home. 366 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,440 Don't misunderstand me, but the church shouldn't be the place I 367 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,880 got to get to. To get my fix. 368 00:22:11,120 --> 00:22:12,800 I should. Be able to get something. 369 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,240 At home, within the walls of my house. 370 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,720 This should not be the only place I pray. 371 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,480 There needs to be a prayer room in my home. 372 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:23,640 I don't need God just to answer here. 373 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:27,160 I got faith God can answer at the house. 374 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:40,720 Someone came in SO. He says you, you, you go home. 375 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:47,480 And. She along with her boys, what 376 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:51,680 they need to realize her statement is there's nothing. 377 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,040 Save a part of oil. And she has even a resignation 378 00:22:56,040 --> 00:23:00,880 about that. But she needed to realize. 379 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:08,400 Woman, looking back, everything you've been through life is like 380 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:12,000 I need you to recognize something there are still some 381 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:20,760 redeemable qualities there's. Still some redeemable qualities 382 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:26,760 about your home. There's someone hearing today. 383 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,640 Yeah, I know. We show up on Sundays and we put 384 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,560 on our Sunday best and we tie our necktie and we. 385 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,560 Shine our. Shoes and we put the. 386 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,440 Smiles on our faces. And my thing is I. 387 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:42,000 Don't live in your home and you don't live in mine, but I don't 388 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,720 know what goes upon beyond closed. 389 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:45,920 Doors. I don't know what happens in 390 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,440 your place. I don't know if the same smile. 391 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:50,640 Follows you home as you have here. 392 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,680 I know some of you might have grieving homes. 393 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,760 You've suffered loss, you've suffered abuse. 394 00:23:57,120 --> 00:23:59,000 There's been arguments that you can't think. 395 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:02,200 About, but I've come today. As a pastor of this church to 396 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,840 somehow peel back to. Layer and say there are. 397 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:08,440 Still some redeemable qualities even about your. 398 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:17,200 House and your family. He says, you know what he said? 399 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:24,280 Don't go to the temple, go home. You and your sons go home and 400 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,040 start pouring that oil in the vessels that you. 401 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:29,640 Get from your neighbors if I can say it like. 402 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,640 This, he said, go home. And shut the. 403 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,160 Door and be obedient. To the word God's given you 404 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,560 until your miracle happens. Until your miracle. 405 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:45,320 So much say man. You know what I believe Elijah 406 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,880 understood, He said If you grieved in that house, you need 407 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,400 to go back until you can. Rejoice in that house. 408 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,720 If you've been weighed down by stress in that house, you. 409 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,320 Need to go back home? Until you feel the comfort and 410 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:02,680 the peace of a turmoil. Free home instead of fear. 411 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,760 You need. Faith, the substance of things 412 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,760 hoped for. And the evidence of things not 413 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:17,400 seen. God's answer to them. 414 00:25:19,120 --> 00:25:25,160 His message to them is that I'll redeem your home. 415 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:35,960 Historically, God has moved in more places. 416 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,040 Than tabernacles, temples and synagogues. 417 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:58,360 He's showing up in kitchens. Upper rooms, pantries, Sister 418 00:25:58,360 --> 00:25:59,520 Adams. I know you're walking out. 419 00:25:59,960 --> 00:26:02,000 But you have kids. That have received the Holy 420 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:14,720 Ghost at home. I grabbed A Weisenberger at a 421 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:19,520 time that old coal burning stove didn't have the money for the 422 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:20,960 code. To burn in the stove. 423 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:26,720 But in the process of a day or so, a pile of coal showed up on 424 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,680 his lot. Still to the time that he died. 425 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:34,120 As far as I know, never knows. Never knew where it came from or 426 00:26:34,120 --> 00:26:38,440 who brought it. What's that? 427 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,480 That's a miracle. Happening at the house. 428 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,440 I know you have experienced some things in your. 429 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,840 Home but God. Wants to redeem it too. 430 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:51,600 I know it may seem like all this is negativity, but God wants to 431 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,120 bring some positive aspects. He wants to redeem. 432 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:58,680 It might be the home you grew up in. 433 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,120 That you were taken advantage. Of or that you were just almost 434 00:27:02,120 --> 00:27:04,360 bludgeoned if you will, with abuse. 435 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,280 God wants to redeem your. Circumstance. 436 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,440 God wants to redeem your family, God. 437 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,440 See To redeem the house or redeem the home. 438 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,120 I thought I had a pocket there, but I don't. 439 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:28,960 Is to redeem something beyond the physical structure because 440 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:29,960 the word house. Or home. 441 00:27:30,360 --> 00:27:33,120 In the Hebrew, denotes. More than the physical 442 00:27:33,120 --> 00:27:35,760 structure, it denotes a household. 443 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,080 Or a family or a. Lineage. 444 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:48,600 God. Wasn't just on some bend of 445 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,120 redeeming the. Physical structure. 446 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:58,880 There were some. Sons there, Fatherless, yes, 447 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:01,520 but. Not fatherless in other. 448 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:11,320 Aspects no one say man, we need the homes redeemed. 449 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,600 Because listen. Whenever God spoke to Israel. 450 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,680 In the book of Deuteronomy, before Joshua started, Joshua 451 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,160 was the book of all the conquests. 452 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:25,480 Of the land of promise. Taking this this taking this 453 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,440 city going to battle. Taking that city. 454 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:29,720 But the Lord had already spoken to them. 455 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,520 He said this conquest. Is going to be a long conquest. 456 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,960 It's going to be. Little by little and you. 457 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,000 Know what he's basically conveying to them? 458 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:45,720 It's not going to happen just in one generation, but the conquest 459 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:49,760 I have for Israel, it's going to take you working at it and 460 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:53,040 passing off that same work ethic to your next generation. 461 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,880 It's going to happen over. Time of generations and the. 462 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,680 Only way that can happen. Is if we have a. 463 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:07,480 Redeemed tones, he says. What? 464 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,680 I'm going. To I'm going to redeem your. 465 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:17,280 House folks what I've. Learned in my life. 466 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:20,560 Is that? God doesn't just meet me where I 467 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,640 worship, He meets me where I live. 468 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,960 You'll meet me at the epicenters of some of my. 469 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:39,400 Deepest pains. You talk about home, stick with 470 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,880 me for a moment. Day of Pentecost, outpouring of 471 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:43,880 the Spirit, birth of the church, Glory Hallelujah. 472 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,480 Amen. 7 or 10 day prayer meeting. 473 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:50,240 Yes, but. That was occurring in a. 474 00:29:50,360 --> 00:30:00,040 Borrowed room of a house. The reality, the birth of the 475 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,800 church is. Tied back to a borrowed. 476 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:04,400 Room that was in a. House. 477 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,120 We look at Saul, we look at David and we think man David, 478 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,480 one of the greatest kings of all 40 years and serving, and he was 479 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:18,000 a man after God's own heart. But listen, whenever David was 480 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:22,000 anointed, he wasn't anointed in the palace or in the Tabernacle. 481 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,240 He was anointed. At Bethlehem, he was anointed at 482 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:34,240 home. So God didn't tell the widow, 483 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,080 take those boys to the temple. He said no, go home. 484 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,320 Shut the door. Behind you and your sons and 485 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:43,840 begin to fill the jars of oil and set each jar that you feel. 486 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,760 Whenever it gets full, set it aside. 487 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,160 Why? Because. 488 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:54,280 For all the bad things. That you've seen in your home. 489 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:58,040 For all the bad. Things that you've. 490 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:02,040 Experienced in your home. You guys need to witness the 491 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:12,040 reality of God in your home. Your resounding nothing needs a. 492 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:16,240 Something that can be that. Can be sandwiched. 493 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:20,480 Up against them. You read, you read. 494 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:26,360 Leviticus 14 right in there. 13141516 even. 495 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,120 You read in the Old Testament Leviticus about leprosy. 496 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:31,800 It's an emblem. It's an emblem of sin. 497 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:36,640 It's a mark of sin. You could have leprosy on or in 498 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:38,840 a person. You'd have leprosy. 499 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:42,960 I know it bro in a. Garment and you could. 500 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:51,490 Have leprosy in the house and. When leprosy. 501 00:31:51,490 --> 00:31:54,210 Began to get into the. House and the. 502 00:31:54,210 --> 00:31:56,530 Stones that were mortared together with one another in 503 00:31:56,530 --> 00:31:57,130 the. House. 504 00:31:57,650 --> 00:31:59,130 The Bible describes it. It would get. 505 00:31:59,130 --> 00:32:04,000 Greenish or reddish like straight lines in it and that 506 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:05,920 the owner. I believe it's a Leviticus 14. 507 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:08,240 That speaks out about this. And the owner would go see a 508 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:12,400 priest and he says I. Perceive that we got some. 509 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:19,680 Plague going on at home and the priest would come. 510 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:24,360 And he would investigate it. And he would set everyone and 511 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:28,240 everything outside of it for seven days, and they would keep 512 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,760 an eye on it and he'd go look at it at the end of seven days and 513 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:35,360 the things hadn't changed. You know what they did? 514 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:40,320 They took the affected. Stones and they. 515 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:44,360 Begin to chisel out that mortar I ran about the. 516 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:48,560 Affected stones that were greenish and reddish and they 517 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:50,520 would cast them aside and. Put. 518 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:55,640 New stones in their place. Why was this important? 519 00:32:56,080 --> 00:33:00,640 Because whoever lived in the home, they saw the green and 520 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:03,840 they saw the red straight marks. They needed to be able to go 521 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,960 back in the same house and that no longer be there. 522 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:10,040 They needed to experience something in their house that 523 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:14,240 they that was different from the far. 524 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,520 He says. He says we're going to. 525 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,360 We're going to allow. You to go home. 526 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,160 Because you and your boys need a moment. 527 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:35,360 In your house, that will change the way that you walk through 528 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:40,000 your. House instead of. 529 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:45,640 Walking through your house and pausing with tears coming up in 530 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,840 your eyes and saying, well, that that right there this area is. 531 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:56,040 Where Dad took his last breath. Instead of walking through the 532 00:33:56,040 --> 00:34:01,400 house and coming to some bare. Shelf and saying well that that 533 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:05,720 that right there that's the that's the shelf that went bare 534 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:09,679 first when the onset of the depletion came or or saying that 535 00:34:09,679 --> 00:34:13,400 quarter over there is where mom cried and. 536 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:17,199 Cried for three hours straight. Hey man, even the invitation. 537 00:34:17,199 --> 00:34:19,639 Of her beating. Fist is in the floor. 538 00:34:19,639 --> 00:34:24,480 That right there. He said you need a new way that 539 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:28,520 you can walk through the house. You need a way that now you walk 540 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:32,320 through there and can say. That corner over there is where 541 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:33,120 we. Stacked. 542 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:37,880 The empty jars that we borrowed from our neighbors and that 543 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:42,960 shelf over there was the last shelf to be full with oil. 544 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:47,639 And that room over there is where God did what only God 545 00:34:47,639 --> 00:34:49,440 could do their. Home. 546 00:34:49,679 --> 00:34:52,400 Needed healed. It needed redeemed. 547 00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:11,880 I've approached life. Perhaps just a little 548 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:17,000 differently than most. The psychologist and 549 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:20,960 psychiatrist would probably really not think good of me. 550 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:31,160 And if there's any out there, just send me a letter because I 551 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:32,960 got a special filing system for it. 552 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:41,320 I've been honest in the growing years of my children. 553 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:44,960 I've been honest with them. Brother Fred, they said. 554 00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:46,640 Don't put any. Undue stress on your kids. 555 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:48,960 Well, I don't I. Just just kind of real. 556 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,600 I tell them. Sometimes when the money wasn't. 557 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:57,760 There for XY and ZI know that's all right. 558 00:35:57,760 --> 00:35:59,480 Take Me Out to. The Woodshed, hi. 559 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,720 You're burning your kids. No, I'm just telling them about 560 00:36:02,720 --> 00:36:05,840 the reality of life, that there's just. 561 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:11,120 Times like that, my sister Sheila, I've all set that then 562 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:14,480 that I've also. Pointed out to them. 563 00:36:15,240 --> 00:36:23,800 When God has come through just in the nick of time. 564 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,840 This was the lack. I told you about it members so 565 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,440 many weeks ago. This was the supply. 566 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:39,840 Why? Because I want. 567 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:41,680 Them to be experienced something in the home. 568 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:46,120 You all. Have heard me tell us. 569 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:49,720 I'm going to tell it again, OK? Just buckle up and hear enough 570 00:36:49,720 --> 00:36:51,280 years now that I can repeat myself. 571 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:53,920 And I'm getting old enough now. I'll do it even without. 572 00:36:53,920 --> 00:37:00,880 Even recognizing you. Remember, I'm taking the 573 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:04,800 Trevor's room right now today and stained on top of his. 574 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:07,800 Heater and down the front. Of his heater is a stain of blue 575 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:12,400 and red where in his day when? He wore his Spidey outfit, which 576 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:21,960 he has one that fits him even still today he entertained 577 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,320 taking to Washington, DC. And getting pictures taken with 578 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:27,720 people making a little bit of money told me it probably pass 579 00:37:27,720 --> 00:37:33,560 out because the heat was just very intrusive and we probably 580 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:41,000 got arrested. I can see Trevor now on steps of 581 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:50,650 the Capitol. But they're staying still on 582 00:37:50,650 --> 00:37:54,290 that heater because one night on a Wednesday night after Bible 583 00:37:54,290 --> 00:37:56,450 study during the winter time, we have baseboard heating. 584 00:37:56,970 --> 00:38:01,410 We came home. His Spidey, his Spidey attire 585 00:38:01,690 --> 00:38:06,690 have been right on that heater. It melted that fabric on the 586 00:38:06,690 --> 00:38:09,240 heater. We had no fire. 587 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:13,120 But what I pointed out to those kids was it was during the time, 588 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:14,840 I tell. You that I change prayer places 589 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:16,000 all the time. It was during. 590 00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:18,400 The time that I was play praying in a different. 591 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,400 Room of my home each day, you know where. 592 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:25,400 I had prayed that morning Criss cross applesauce on the. 593 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:33,080 Floor in Trevor's room. For anything that my kids may 594 00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:34,720 have experienced. In our home and we don't have a 595 00:38:34,720 --> 00:38:39,160 perfect home. It's things like that that 596 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:45,720 redeemed. I still have the picture. 597 00:38:45,720 --> 00:38:47,480 I believe it's in my phone. I'd have to look through the, 598 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:50,080 you know, almost 6000 pictures on my phone that I got more 599 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:55,320 iCloud, you know, space for. I still. 600 00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:56,800 Probably have the picture. This. 601 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:57,680 Is all. What is this? 602 00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,480 I don't know, I guess we're just careless. 603 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,480 I was over cleaning out like Mariah's room one time. 604 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:07,360 I don't even remember how many years ago this was. 605 00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:11,360 And you know me in the air around here of dumb dumb. 606 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:15,600 Suckers. My kids had some. 607 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:21,360 And inside the baseboard heater. Sitting on top of the. 608 00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:26,640 Coils was a stick and paper that. 609 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:28,760 I mean, I'm what I'm. Saying, is it still the? 610 00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:32,800 Perfect form of a sucker. The paper was very browned and 611 00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:38,000 charred bag. When I unwrapped it, the inside 612 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,760 candy was totally gone. It had melted. 613 00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:44,320 It was hot enough to melt the candy but not burn. 614 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:49,880 The paper still had perfect form. 615 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,560 Well, you said I don't care what grief you've met with. 616 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,880 I don't. Care what your. 617 00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:58,920 Family or your home has suffered. 618 00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,360 God wants some things to take place in your house. 619 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:06,320 That will bring a little. Courage a little with all. 620 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,280 About you know what, Yes. We fail, but I. 621 00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:13,040 Think we can make it too? Yes, we are not perfect, but I 622 00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,160 think we can come on the other side too. 623 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:20,040 Yes, He wants to redeem your house. 624 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,680 What is it? It's just the handiwork of God 625 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,960 telling us to go home, telling us that for all the. 626 00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,040 Bad and confusing nothing moments. 627 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:47,720 That we've had at our house, that there are some God moments 628 00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:51,960 in the same House of our grief, in the same House of our sorrow, 629 00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:55,560 in the same House of our fear. There's some God moments, 630 00:40:55,560 --> 00:41:01,360 everybody. Doing OK. 631 00:41:04,240 --> 00:41:05,520 I am. I'm operating off 2 hours of 632 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:13,800 sleep right now. You know what made that picture? 633 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:17,080 Grandma being across that threshold to the other room, 634 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:26,320 dying, less intimidating to me. Something that happened all my 635 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:31,000 life, even after that in that same little bathroom. 636 00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:37,040 I'm not trying to be TMI here where you could sit on the 637 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:39,760 stool, have a foot in the tub and one hand in the sink all at 638 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:50,240 the same time. Laurie Amen Hallelujah and my 639 00:41:50,240 --> 00:41:54,920 dad 5 O clock in the morning would make that his prayer room 640 00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,280 and after his mom. Had died in that space. 641 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:01,640 You know what he's still doing? He's going to that same location 642 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:03,200 and he's made of this prayer room. 643 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:05,760 And I could lay in my room though my grandma. 644 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:07,040 Died. Across there, you know what I'm 645 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:08,280 here and why I'm laying there early in the. 646 00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:12,160 Morning God touched the church. God move upon Paul Junior. 647 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:14,080 God this, God that. Why? 648 00:42:14,240 --> 00:42:15,840 Because although I suffered loss. 649 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:19,800 There God says I redeem it with this I'll. 650 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:27,880 Can I tell you that you can have a hand in the redemption of your 651 00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:29,160 room? It's all about. 652 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:32,640 Whether you're going home, gathering them around and doing 653 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:36,000 the porn that is only an act of faith, waiting for the mirror, 654 00:42:38,240 --> 00:42:39,680 listen. This is not the McGee. 655 00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:42,720 Show but I'm telling you this, I got the text still on my thing. 656 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:44,640 I go get. Groceries for our family on. 657 00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,960 Mondays, my Mondays, it's my day off from church work. 658 00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:50,840 It's my heavy day for personal word. 659 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:58,520 My wife never asked. I just offered that on Mondays I 660 00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:01,040 go to get stuff, you know, and I make a list. 661 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:04,440 I'm a list person. I make a list. 662 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:06,560 Got a digital one on my phone. It's. 663 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:10,640 Great, you know all. You know you you check it and it 664 00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:12,960 goes to the bottom of the list. Uncheck it, it comes to the top 665 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:13,880 of the list. I love it. 666 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:16,480 I if I bought. Everything that was on that 667 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:18,320 list. We'd have groceries for months 668 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:21,240 because, you know, we change. I got recipes in there and the 669 00:43:21,720 --> 00:43:24,680 ingredients I need below each. One check, check, check uncheck. 670 00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:31,720 Right. Sometimes I miss not checking or 671 00:43:31,720 --> 00:43:34,840 remembering what's in the cupboard There's. 672 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:37,120 One of the times in. Right. 673 00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:40,200 This, this was probably within just the last year or so thing 674 00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:44,920 like where I was in college. I pray at home, I pray at the 675 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:46,920 church, you know, I believe everywhere. 676 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:49,360 You just pray. I've told you. 677 00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:52,320 I prayed in that little baptismal room up there, Chairs 678 00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:54,840 up there in it, Fred. Small little space, but. 679 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:59,360 Mean Jesus can fit. I've prayed in my garage. 680 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:02,000 I've prayed in my backyard. Don't matter. 681 00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:08,280 I've tried to. Live that before my boys. 682 00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:11,320 Because listen to me, the creditor. 683 00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:15,160 Is always looking for opportunity. 684 00:44:16,240 --> 00:44:19,080 To wrap. Tap on your house door for your 685 00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:27,100 children. So I texted. 686 00:44:27,100 --> 00:44:29,420 Mariah, one day I'm like Mariah. Do we have? 687 00:44:29,940 --> 00:44:32,900 Whatever it was occurred to, jeez, I don't know. 688 00:44:33,700 --> 00:44:35,820 Do we have? Didn't hear from her, Didn't 689 00:44:35,820 --> 00:44:36,940 hear from her. Didn't hear from her. 690 00:44:36,940 --> 00:44:38,740 Didn't hear from her. I was like, fine, I'll just get 691 00:44:38,740 --> 00:44:41,220 it. Only for her to text back I 692 00:44:41,220 --> 00:44:45,260 think on my way home. She said sorry dad, I was 693 00:44:45,260 --> 00:44:51,080 praying. I've I've been praying in the 694 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:52,520 morning. And start hearing her prey. 695 00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:56,800 But I was never. So happy to buy curded. 696 00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:06,360 Cheese for $4. Then to know there's some 697 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:14,400 redemption happening back. At the house keep. 698 00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:15,640 Pouring that. Sis. 699 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,960 Keep pouring that, sis. Keep pouring that, sis. 700 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:30,200 Listen, I'm a stupid idiot. I get angry, mad. 701 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:32,400 My kids still give me a hard time about this to this day. 702 00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:34,320 I was aggravated by something one day. 703 00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:37,360 I was walking down our hallway and I was just kind of thumping 704 00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:41,160 my wall. I was aggravated and my side of 705 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:47,280 my fist went into our drywall. I fixed it. 706 00:45:48,720 --> 00:45:51,720 You probably couldn't find it. But they give me a hard time 707 00:45:51,720 --> 00:45:53,920 like that. Trevor, it's once while if he 708 00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:55,720 can tell I'm getting a little aggravated. 709 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:57,440 He said Dad, you need to go put a hole in the. 710 00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:01,240 Wall, I said. Trevor I. 711 00:46:01,240 --> 00:46:02,920 Didn't even mean to do that, I was just. 712 00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:04,000 Stumping. I was going down. 713 00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:07,080 And it just hit. What is that? 714 00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:12,440 That's something that needs redeemed, but it can only be 715 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:16,640 redeemed with. Opposite things to that taking 716 00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:22,840 place in the same space. Now somebody's going to. 717 00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:25,040 Show up in my door and. Announce a knock because they 718 00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:26,800 won't walk. Around numb it down my hallway. 719 00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:31,360 Well, I'll be in the better mood, in the fetal position and 720 00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:44,030 talk to my wife. Stand with me today. 721 00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:52,200 The gist of what I'm trying to convey this morning is this is 722 00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:53,520 that if? You're sitting or standing. 723 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:57,120 Here today, thinking my house is too far gone. 724 00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:03,520 It's too broken, it's too heavy, it's too haunted by what's 725 00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:07,360 happened inside its walls. I've come to. 726 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:13,440 Tell you that that house can be redeemed too. 727 00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:18,400 Can I tell you he's still? Sending oil to. 728 00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:25,200 Broken homes he didn't. Need a palace. 729 00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:27,240 He he didn't need a platform. He just. 730 00:47:27,240 --> 00:47:30,360 Needed someone to believe that there was still something left. 731 00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:39,000 Redeemable I caught by you. In the house because for. 732 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:40,560 Every memory that. May hurt. 733 00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:44,160 He could. Create a new one for you every. 734 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:45,840 Room where? Where there's been? 735 00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:49,680 Shouting, or maybe sometimes deafening silence or sorrow. 736 00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:53,040 He can fill it with laughter. He can fill it with prayer. 737 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:56,160 He can fill it with peace. Every child that seems. 738 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:58,320 That they should have never seen. 739 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:01,960 He can. Let them know of a miracle. 740 00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:04,560 Right in. Their. 741 00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:09,160 Living room. So pastors telling you today, go 742 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:16,200 home, shut your door, bring your family in and that's still the 743 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:19,080 instruction as it was in second Kings Ford, still the 744 00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:23,000 instruction today. Go home and believe again. 745 00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:28,280 Go home and pour again. Go home and pray in the hallway 746 00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:30,600 if you. Need to worship in your? 747 00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:33,320 Kitchen believe God for something new. 748 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:41,160 In the bedroom, whatever it is. Because if God can feel. 749 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:43,440 Empty vessels. In a widow's house. 750 00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:51,760 Again, he can redeem, feel the holy. 751 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:56,480 Ghost.

Pull out a 8 foot. 755 00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:07,440 Folding table and set across from. 756 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,240 You and. Begin to get all of the. 757 00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:15,760 Details and information about. Your home life growing up, or 758 00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:18,080 maybe what your home life is right now. 759 00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:21,680 Matter of fact, we probably don't. 760 00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:26,640 Even have the hours in this day left in order for you to 761 00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:30,960 describe and express things you've heard, seemed, felt, and. 762 00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:38,360 I feel the Holy Ghost. And you might just look back 763 00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:41,040 into my. Eyes this morning when I say, 764 00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:44,600 well, what's in the house? And you might just so powerfully 765 00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:55,440 say pastor nothing. With what my hopes. 766 00:49:55,440 --> 00:50:03,840 Experienced nothing. But I'm just asking you today if 767 00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:05,400 you can. Find the gumption, the 768 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:08,640 fortitude. Go back home. 769 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:14,240 Shut the door and begin to. Pour. 770 00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:17,640 In obedience to God's Word. And. 771 00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:23,920 Watch him do the miracle that you need to be a step forward. 772 00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:30,560 In redeeming the traumatic. And troubling issues that you've 773 00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:35,440 lived through in your house. These halters are open. 774 00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:39,920 Today I feel the Holy Ghost. There's a reason today that God. 775 00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:44,120 Directed me from Thursday to Friday to go this direction and 776 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:46,400 why I. Spent my birthday here. 777 00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:50,320 A man just mulling this over and trying to fine tune what I. 778 00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:52,040 Felt like the. Spirit was saying. 779 00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:54,240 And I'm not. Saying that in a derogatory way, 780 00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:57,400 man, I've been a lot of places on the Easter and Christmas and 781 00:50:57,400 --> 00:50:59,080 other people's birthday is my anniversary. 782 00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:03,520 Who cares but what I'm saying? Is today God cares about your 783 00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:05,960 home? He cares about your house. 784 00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:09,800 He cares about the generations, the men that flood out from your 785 00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:13,280 loins in connection with you, and he's wanting to redeem some 786 00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:16,400 things. Even in your home, He wants to 787 00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:19,320 redeem some things. Will you make yourself? 788 00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:24,120 Available Will you open yourself up to the possibility of what 789 00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:27,480 God can redeem? Come on, Sir, will you make 790 00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:30,920 yourself available? Will you open yourself up to the 791 00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:38,480 possibility of what God? Old you are or. 792 00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:41,360 How young you are, How wealthy you? 793 00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:44,400 Are. Or how much of AI know you? 794 00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:46,240 Walk through your home. And all you got. 795 00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:50,880 Is all the happened in? That room or what happened? 796 00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:54,320 Here and what happened there. But God wants to redeem. 797 00:51:54,320 --> 00:51:56,320 Some. Of those things, he wants to 798 00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:58,960 change your walkthrough. He wants to change your 799 00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:00,920 walkthrough. In your own home. 800 00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:08,000 Yeah. Because when I walk through 801 00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:08,720 that. Hallway. 802 00:52:08,720 --> 00:52:10,440 I'm not. Thinking about my fist in the 803 00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:14,080 drywall, I'm thinking about the Spidey suit on the heater and 804 00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:16,400 the sucker on the coils in Mariah's room. 805 00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:19,960 I'm thinking about the prayer. That's issued for there. 806 00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:25,560 God wants to redeem it. It's not too far gone, it's not 807 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:28,560 too far gone. It's not a washing of the hands 808 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:30,440 and a discarding to the refuse. Pile. 809 00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:33,800 No, Sir, No. Ma'am, there are redeemable 810 00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:36,920 things in your family. Redeemable things. 811 00:52:36,920 --> 00:52:39,000 In your.

He's a Redeemer. 816 00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:53,400 He's a Redeemer. He's. 817 00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:01,520 Come on, this is the only service. 818 00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:03,160 We're having today, ladies and gentlemen. 819 00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:05,520 This is the only service. We're having today. 820 00:53:05,720 --> 00:53:07,440 I wish. Someone would just grab it like 821 00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:08,680 a. Sponge and twist it. 822 00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:12,360 Till the very last drop. A man is squeezed from it. 823 00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:15,200 Right. Now he wants to redeem our 824 00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:22,720 hopes. Oh, my brother McGee, that was. 825 00:53:22,720 --> 00:53:24,560 10. Years ago, 20 years ago. 826 00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:30,160 How in the world God can do it? God can replace the. 827 00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:34,360 Stones with something anew. In the fresh, he can heal it.
