1 00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:06,360 All right, my Bible in 365. Brothers and sisters, we have 2 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:11,600 arrived at the book of Second Chronicles, and this one is a 3 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:15,360 doozy. I think you are going to love 4 00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:18,560 this book. And folks, let me just simply 5 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:22,960 tell you that this may be one of the most practical books in the 6 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:27,960 Bible if understood correctly. Now let me say this second 7 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:32,000 Chronicles records the history of the kings of Judah, 8 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,320 beginning, of course, with Solomon and ending with the 9 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,520 Babylonian captivity. That sounds very, very sad if 10 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:42,560 you think about it, because Israel became so great under the 11 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:46,400 leadership of Solomon, yet it was tragic to see how it ended. 12 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:50,880 Now, with that said, I want to just simply say that if you want 13 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,480 to dig incredibly deep in this book, you can go to 14 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,920 jamescadiz.com. I get into a lot of the history 15 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,920 and I talk about so many nuances that I think are critically 16 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,840 important to understand. When you dig deep into a book 17 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,720 like this, there is a lot that is there. 18 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:12,160 Now let me simply say this for purposes of this video. 19 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:16,960 Throughout the book, we repeatedly see the same 20 00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:20,720 principles. OK, when the people seek the 21 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:25,080 Lord, when they obey His word, would they humble themselves 22 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,360 before Him? God strengthens and delivers 23 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:29,640 them. He carries them through. 24 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,520 He brings to them amazing blessing. 25 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,200 When they forsake the Lord, when they trust in their own 26 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:40,040 strength, when they turn to idolatry, when they choose to 27 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,680 walk in disobedience to the Lord, they experience defeat. 28 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,280 It happens. By the way, this is the ebb and 29 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:51,280 flow throughout all of the Bible on so many different levels, but 30 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,680 especially with the example of the children of Israel. 31 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,560 One of the strongest examples of this principle is found in 32 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:02,480 Second Chronicles chapter 20, which is why I want to focus on 33 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:07,200 it because it shows you what happens when you choose to put 34 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:11,080 your faith and trust in the Lord and you learn so much about the 35 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,720 mindset of who God is and what He wants to do. 36 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:18,240 Now, if we go to chapter 20 of Second Chronicles, it brings us 37 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:22,720 to the story of Jehoshaphat. At the point that we read about 38 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,800 in this chapter, King Jehoshaphat receives word that a 39 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:31,680 massive enemy is coming his way, seeking to advance against the 40 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:35,040 southern Kingdom of Judah. He doesn't have the military 41 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,600 strength to stop it. He certainly does not have an 42 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,120 obvious strategy. We know that by simply reading 43 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,440 the text. And he definitely does not know 44 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,440 what to do. He has no clue yet. 45 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,440 Jehoshaphat understands something that's really 46 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,480 important. He understands that not knowing 47 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,360 what to do does not mean that there's nothing he can do. 48 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,680 And I thought that that was good instinct to see in him. 49 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,800 And what he does is remarkable. Let's look at what he does here. 50 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,960 This is in verse 12 of chapter 20. 51 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:13,400 And I love the idea that comes with seeking the Lord before 52 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,680 seeking a solution. It's so good. 53 00:03:15,920 --> 00:03:19,200 Let me read this. It says, O our God, wilt thou 54 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,720 not judge them? For we have no might against 55 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,720 this great company that cometh against us. 56 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:29,600 Neither know we what to do, but our eyes are upon Thee. 57 00:03:29,920 --> 00:03:34,200 This may be, in my opinion, one of the most practical prayers 58 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,480 that you're going to read in the Bible. 59 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:41,080 Jehoshaphat doesn't pretend to possess strength by any stretch 60 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:46,240 of the imagination. He doesn't want to even project 61 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,760 it to anybody. He simply wants to understand. 62 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,920 He wants people to understand the Lord, to understand that. 63 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,680 He admits that he doesn't have the strength. 64 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,720 He doesn't attempt to impress God with some falsely found 65 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,520 confidence. And he, let me just simply say 66 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,200 this. On the contrary, he actually 67 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:08,080 admits to three things. He admits the enemy is greater 68 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,360 than they are, at least from his mindset, militaristically 69 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,400 speaking. He admits that they don't 70 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,760 possess the strength to defeat that enemy. 71 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,279 And then he admits perhaps what might be the most consequential 72 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,240 portion of all of this. They don't know what to do. 73 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,760 That's a kind of a like, wow, you don't want a king doing that 74 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,680 unless the king says the next thing that we just read. 75 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,880 He makes the most important statement after he makes those 76 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:38,080 admissions. He says our eyes are upon thee. 77 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,680 That's what he says. Now I want to say this because I 78 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,040 think it's important. There's a really important 79 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,800 interlude that we have to just visit for a second, and that 80 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,200 centers around understanding how faith works. 81 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:55,000 Faith never means that I always know what to do. 82 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,480 On the contrary, it can mean the opposite in many ways. 83 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:02,400 Faith means that when I do not know what to do, I know where to 84 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,680 look. There will be moments in life 85 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:10,360 when experience is not enough. Your resources certainly will 86 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,120 never be enough. Your connections won't be 87 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,560 enough. You'll have exhausted everything 88 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,360 that you can possibly exhaust, and you'll realize it won't be 89 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,000 enough. Your very understanding will not 90 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,120 be enough. The mistake that we often make 91 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:30,960 is that we exhaust every human option, then seek the Lord as a 92 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,760 last result. That's a huge error. 93 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,360 Jehoshaphat went to the Lord at first. 94 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:42,120 He sought the Lord first before he formed a military strategy. 95 00:05:42,280 --> 00:05:44,680 He called the people to prayer and fasting. 96 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,000 I want you to notice why that's so significant. 97 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:52,960 Before he acted, he made certain that his eyes were pointed in 98 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,320 the right direction, the only direction They should have been 99 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,280 pointed to the Lord. And look what happens. 100 00:05:58,280 --> 00:06:01,000 I'm going to read this in verse 14 and 15 because this becomes 101 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,440 so critical. Let me read verse 14. 102 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:08,040 Then upon Jehaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Beniah, 103 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:13,280 the son of Yael, the son of Methenya, a Levite of the sons 104 00:06:13,280 --> 00:06:17,840 of Asaph, came the Spirit of the Lord in the midst of the 105 00:06:17,840 --> 00:06:19,600 congregation. Boy, is that beautiful. 106 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:25,800 And he said, Hearken you all, Judah, and the inhabitants of 107 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:30,280 Jerusalem, and thou, King Jehoshaphat, thus saith the Lord 108 00:06:30,280 --> 00:06:35,680 unto you, be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great 109 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:40,400 multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God's. 110 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:49,120 Let me just tell you, this makes me so excited about the moments 111 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,720 where I feel overwhelmed. Notice here God didn't deny the 112 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:58,280 size of the enemy, He actually called it a great multitude. 113 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,240 Having faith in the Lord doesn't require us to pretend that a 114 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,600 problem is small. As a matter of fact, it 115 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:11,680 recognizes that no matter how large the problem is, God is 116 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,280 greater. Sometimes it's important to 117 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,160 acknowledge the fact that the problem is huge because it's a 118 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,240 new opportunity for God to show Himself strong on our behalf. 119 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:26,720 Their fear was connected to what they believed they had to 120 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,480 accomplish in their own strength. 121 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,120 That's where their fear came from. 122 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:35,640 But God like literally protected their minds and hearts and even 123 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,960 corrected their perspective by saying look, the battle isn't 124 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:44,160 yours, it's mine. That doesn't mean that every 125 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,640 difficult situation will disappear without action. 126 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,840 I think that's kind of a crazy belief to have. 127 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,080 But it does mean that the outcome is not ultimately 128 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,680 produced by human strength. God is the controller of the 129 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,440 outcome. There are battles that God 130 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,400 permits into our lives specifically to expose the 131 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,680 limits of our strength. Let me say that again. 132 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:10,000 God will allow battles to show up in our life to demonstrate 133 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,360 the need to come to the end of ourselves. 134 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:17,280 As long as we believe we can handle everything ourselves, we 135 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,640 will continue depending upon ourselves, and that will lead us 136 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,640 to nothing. But when we reach the place 137 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,920 where we can truthfully say we have no might, we don't know 138 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,000 what to do. We are finally prepared to 139 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,799 discover what God can do. That's what God was doing here 140 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,720 in this situation. And I want to ask you, 141 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,080 evaluating your own life, evaluating your own 142 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,400 circumstances, where are you at with this? 143 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,320 That's an important question, and I want you to hold on to it 144 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:50,520 because remember this, even when you are recognizing things as 145 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,880 you should, it still requires obedience. 146 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,040 Let me explain. I'll read verse 16 and 17. 147 00:08:56,040 --> 00:09:00,400 It will make sense tomorrow. Go you down against them. 148 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:04,920 Behold, they come up by the Cliff of Zeus, and you shall 149 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:08,800 find them at the end of the brook before the wilderness of 150 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:13,040 Yahoo AL. You shall not need to fight in 151 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,320 this battle. Set yourselves, notice this, set 152 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,840 yourselves, stand you still and see the salvation of the Lord 153 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:22,800 with you. O Judah and Jerusalem. 154 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:27,200 Fear not nor be dismayed. Tomorrow go out against them, 155 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:32,720 for the Lord will be with you. And God told him something very 156 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,840 simple. He told them they would not need 157 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:36,960 to fight. Wow. 158 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,560 I mean, I just think about this. I go poof, that's so incredible. 159 00:09:41,680 --> 00:09:45,080 They would not need to fight. But he still commanded them. 160 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,600 Think about this. He still commanded them to go 161 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,680 out and face the enemy. Hey, you don't need to fight, 162 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:52,800 but I want you to go and face the enemy. 163 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,840 I think that would be a really scary thing for me to do. 164 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:02,360 Stand at you still. That's what he says, guys. 165 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,280 When he made that statement, it certainly did not mean stay home 166 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,960 and avoid the battlefield. He didn't say that he wanted 167 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,400 them. They had to position themselves 168 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,520 where God told them to stand. I think this is an important 169 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:17,240 distinction. Trusting God is not the same as 170 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,200 doing nothing. Understand that trusting God is 171 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,680 not the same as doing nothing. Sometimes faith requires us to 172 00:10:24,680 --> 00:10:28,560 move forward even when we cannot see how the situation will be 173 00:10:28,560 --> 00:10:30,400 resolved. We're not asked to know the 174 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,720 future. Sometimes it's scary when you 175 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,600 think about the future. God says I own the future, You 176 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,520 trusted me. Judah still had to walk toward 177 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,560 the enemy. They all still had to leave the 178 00:10:41,560 --> 00:10:44,200 security of Yahushalaim, the security of Jerusalem. 179 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:49,040 They had to stand where God had directed them and obedience. 180 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:53,000 When they chose to obey God, it placed them in the position to 181 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,480 witness God's deliverance. It didn't place them in the 182 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:56,920 position to be vulnerable to the enemy. 183 00:10:57,560 --> 00:11:00,600 There was no vulnerability when it was obedience to God. 184 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,160 Yes, we might feel vulnerable, but there was no real 185 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,840 vulnerability there because God was the one that was fighting 186 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,720 the battle for them. I think we often want God to 187 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,200 remove the enemy before we move. We do that all the time. 188 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,480 We think, oh God, get rid of this problem, get rid of the 189 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,880 enemy. But I think God may be telling 190 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:22,160 us sometimes to move because He intends to reveal His power. 191 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,320 When we show up, when we arrive, when we arrive to watch the 192 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:29,760 show, God makes Himself known. And that's what I think is 193 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,680 remarkable. Now look what happens here in 194 00:11:31,680 --> 00:11:36,000 verse 21 it says, And when he had consulted with the people, 195 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,000 he appointed singers unto the Lord. 196 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,480 And that should praise the beauty of holiness as they went 197 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,600 out before the army, and to say, praise the Lord for his mercy 198 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,560 endureth forever. And when they began to sing to 199 00:11:49,560 --> 00:11:53,960 praise the Lord, set ambush against the children of Ammon, 200 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:58,240 Moab, and Mount Seir, which were come against Judah, and they 201 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,440 noticed this and they were smitten. 202 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,960 God beat him down. I love this. 203 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,240 Now I want you to notice what happened here. 204 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,880 They praise the Lord before they saw the victory. 205 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:15,040 God told them to go stand in the midst of the enemy and said he 206 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:16,720 would fight. And what do they immediately do? 207 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,960 Instinctually, not only do they obey the Lord and go where the 208 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,880 Lord tells him to, but they praise the Lord as they were 209 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,600 doing it. And while they were praising 210 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:29,640 God, God just smoked them all. They were not praising God 211 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:30,960 because the battle was already over. 212 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,960 I want you to understand that. They were praising God in 213 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,880 anticipation of the fact that He was going to fight the battle 214 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,400 because He said He would. They were praising God because 215 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,200 He had spoken and they knew that when He spoke it would happen. 216 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,880 Their worship was based upon the character and the very promise 217 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,920 of God, not upon the circumstances that they could 218 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,320 already see. It had everything to do with 219 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,480 them knowing that God was going to work because God said He was 220 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,160 going to work. Notice what happens here. 221 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:04,920 When God began to act, when they began to sing and to praise. 222 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,240 That's what the Bible says. The God began to act when they 223 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:13,840 began to sing and to praise. Worship did a bunch of things. 224 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,160 Let me tell you what it did not do. 225 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:19,240 It did not ignore the enemy. That was one thing that it did 226 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,560 not do. It recognized the presence of 227 00:13:21,560 --> 00:13:26,000 the enemy, yet even in the presence of the enemy, worship 228 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:30,360 declared that the enemy did not possess the final authority, 229 00:13:31,560 --> 00:13:35,440 that there was no control they had because God was the one who 230 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:41,080 had the battle. Anyone, anyone in their Mama can 231 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:46,320 praise God after the victory becomes visible, but faith 232 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:50,720 praises the Lord while the enemy is still standing in front of 233 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,760 them. There's a way to conclude here 234 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,440 that I think is critical, especially for your spiritual 235 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:01,800 growth, especially to develop a deeper understanding of what God 236 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,000 wants to do. The message of this passage is 237 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,360 simple. There will be moments. 238 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,440 I promise you. There will be, I promise you. 239 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,200 There will be moments when you have no strength and no clear 240 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,360 answer. I promise you, here's what you 241 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,880 have to do. Admit your weakness. 242 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:26,800 Put your eyes on the Lord. Listen to what God has said. 243 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:32,680 Obey His direction even when the outcome is not yet visible. 244 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,840 Don't place a contingency upon your obedience to God. 245 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:41,840 And when you obey Him, you start worshiping Him now in 246 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,000 anticipation of what you know you're going to see. 247 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,080 Worship Him before you see the victory. 248 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,600 The greatest statement Jehoshaphat made was not that he 249 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,880 had a plan. The greatest statement that he 250 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:56,400 had made was this. Neither know we what to do. 251 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,720 But the part I love about that is the next line. 252 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:05,680 But our eyes are upon Thee. You may not know what to do 253 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:11,680 next, but if your eyes are upon the Lord, you are absolutely 254 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:15,640 looking in the right direction. Are you going through a 255 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:19,000 difficult time? Based on what I know, 256 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:24,000 statistically, many of you are. This is the time to go to the 257 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:30,160 Lord and say I've got nothing before you even try to find the 258 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:35,400 solution with your resources. See, I don't know what to do, 259 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:40,720 but my eyes are fixed on you. And be open to what God tells 260 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:46,080 you, because when you go to face the enemy, you are going to 261 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,120 watch the greatness of God show up and there's nothing like it. 262 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,560 Why? Because God is good even when we 263 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,920 can't see it. God is good and don't ever 264 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:59,440 forget this. The battle always belongs to 265 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,040 Him. You're his child. 266 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,080 Trust Him, He's doing great things. 267 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,240 I'm so proud of you guys. I'm proud of your Bible reading. 268 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,880 It's my hope and my prayer that you will grow closer to the Lord 269 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:15,120 as you draw into His word and from His Word. 270 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,760 The answer is right there. I love you guys. 271 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,480 You keep fighting the good fight and look to the Lord. 272 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,280 Remember, keep your eyes upon Him. 273 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:24,120 God bless you.
