I was the cosigner of the car, 20 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:34,000 and I didn't really expect the delight in my girl's face when I 21 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,080 signed that paper and she drove away like I was like the dad of 22 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,160 the year.

We have two cats and a dog named 29 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,320 Lolly. And so that's this. 30 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:13,120 I love everything about Jesus. I will follow Him all the days 31 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,040 of my life. I have no agenda but just to 32 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,640 follow him. Sometimes I wonder why he has 33 00:02:19,640 --> 00:02:25,360 positioned me with in a position to just talk about Him. 34 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:31,720 I am so overwhelmed with His grace and mercy in my life and 35 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:36,960 it is my privilege and honor to be here this morning to talk to 36 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,080 you a little bit about. I want you to turn to 1st John 37 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:51,080 Chapter 4, first John chapter 4 and I just as you turn there and 38 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:59,160 I see every room filled, I see every city one, I see the glory 39 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,760 of God just overwhelming his people. 40 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:11,720 I see the Lord just moving in amazing, amazing ways and in 41 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:16,200 your life, I want you to begin to consider that it's God's plan 42 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,480 that you prosper in every area of your life. 43 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:25,960 I want you to begin to consider, to imagine for a moment what it 44 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,280 is that the Lord wants to do in your life. 45 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,160 And in Ephesians, it says He's able to do immeasurably more 46 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:37,440 than we can ask, dream, or imagine the God's love and His 47 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,800 mercy and His grace and his goodness. 48 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:44,440 He wants to overwhelm you with such things. 49 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,840 And so maybe you find yourself this morning a little 50 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,600 discouraged. Well, can I tell you're in the 51 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:54,600 right place in the House of the Lord, because it's in his house 52 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,120 that you are reminded of his goodness towards you. 53 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:04,400 And don't buy into the lie of the enemy for a minute that he 54 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,800 is winning. The enemy has been defeated, 55 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:11,840 long been defeated. We always win in Christ Jesus. 56 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:16,000 And so is that perspective that I want you just to remind you. 57 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:20,000 So I see every church filled. I see every city one. 58 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:24,120 I see the glory of the Lord just overwhelming his people. 59 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,440 And the next great awakening is just on the horizon. 60 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:32,200 And so when we focus, I love what Adam said this morning, 61 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:37,000 such, so practical, but such such great insight is just like, 62 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:42,440 turn off the noise and focus your attention on the only one 63 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,520 that matters and that's King Jesus. 64 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:50,240 And when you begin to focus on him, things just begin to align 65 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:54,400 and you receive that strength from the Lord to be able to 66 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:59,320 stand in times where everybody is doubting you can stand. 67 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:04,640 Salt can stand and say we serve a God and he is alive and he is 68 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,560 well. And so I want to talk to you 69 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,200 this morning about uncommon love. 70 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,680 I'm going to land on how to love the unlovable. 71 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,600 All right, something practical for us. 72 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,200 But before I get there, as as I was praying and worship this 73 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,760 morning, I was like, are they ready to hear the challenging 74 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,440 word? And I got the green light. 75 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,760 You're ready to hear how to love the unlovable. 76 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,200 But before we get to learning how to love the unlovable, I 77 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:36,320 want to read a passage to you in first John chapter 4. 78 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:41,960 I'm just going to read it's like 21 is from 7:00 to verse 7 to 79 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,360 21. I want to remind you of God's 80 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,760 love in your life. You know, in order to love like 81 00:05:49,840 --> 00:05:53,360 Jesus, you first have to realize that you are loved like Jesus. 82 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,960 Does that make sense to you? Like the agape love of God, like 83 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:02,520 God's love is overwhelming. It's, it's, it's without 84 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,120 condition. And so in order to love the 85 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,600 unlovable, we first have to understand that we are loved 86 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:13,840 when we were unlovable, right? And, and that's really important 87 00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:18,280 the receiving the love of Jesus in your life, that you can go 88 00:06:18,280 --> 00:06:22,800 out of this facility today and mess up terribly. 89 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,800 And God loves you the same that if you leave this place and you 90 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,520 do really well, it's amazing. God's love is amazing. 91 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:34,960 And so just trying to understand that, and you can tell in a 92 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,680 believer's life, the ones that have received that love, that 93 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,720 unconditional love, you can tell it's marked. 94 00:06:41,840 --> 00:06:43,240 Their life looks a little different. 95 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,960 And so learning how to receive that love, it's not what I do, 96 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:51,760 it's what Jesus has already done that that positions me to 97 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,320 receive that love. That's huge. 98 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,640 And if you're in here today and you ever wondered if God loves 99 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,960 you, He is love. It's impossible for Him not to 100 00:06:59,960 --> 00:07:04,200 love you, and so His position is always towards us. 101 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:09,560 Always love all the time. Even when your friends don't 102 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:14,240 think you should be loved, or even when you get into the bully 103 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,800 grubs and think you don't deserve his love. 104 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,920 That's what makes our relationship with Jesus so 105 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,120 unique. Is that why we were yet sinners? 106 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:28,800 He died for us. So that love changes everything 107 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,800 and it ought to. And then the second part, and 108 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,920 this is where I'll bring us to in this passage in first John. 109 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:38,960 This is this, dear friend, do you love the Word? 110 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,760 I know you love the Word, right? Dear friends, let us love one 111 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:44,920 another, for love comes from God. 112 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:51,400 Everyone who love, who loves has been born of God and knows God. 113 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:57,160 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 114 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,360 This is how God showed His love amongst us. 115 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,640 He sent His one and only Son into the world that we might 116 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,240 live through Him. This is love. 117 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,880 I would highlight that, mark it, underline it, memorize it right 118 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,840 here. This is love, not that we loved 119 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:18,000 God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as an atoning 120 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:22,120 sacrifice for our sin. God chose to love us before we 121 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,040 ever had the opportunity to love Him. 122 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:25,600 Do you get that? All right? 123 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:31,200 11 Dear friends, since God so loved us, we ought to love one 124 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:36,080 another. No one has ever seen God, But if 125 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,240 we love one another, God lives in US, and His love is made 126 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:43,120 complete in US. This is how we know that we live 127 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:48,680 in Him and He lives in US. He has given us His Spirit, and 128 00:08:48,680 --> 00:08:52,880 we have seen and testify that the Father has sent His Son to 129 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:57,520 be the Savior of the world. If anyone acknowledges that 130 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,040 Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in them and they in God. 131 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:06,560 And so we know and we rely on the love God has for us. 132 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:11,120 God is love. Say that with me God is love. 133 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,960 Whoever lives in love lives in God and God in them. 134 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:19,400 This is how love is made complete amongst us, so that we 135 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:23,240 will have confidence on the Day of judgment in this world. 136 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:27,480 We are like Jesus. There is No Fear in love, but 137 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:31,200 perfect love drives out fear because fear has to do with 138 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,000 punishment. The one who fears is not made 139 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,280 perfect in love. That's a great verse. 140 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:37,880 You should underline that one as well. 141 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,480 When you understand the unconditional love of God, it 142 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,560 literally is the driving force of fear out of your life. 143 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,640 Love drives fear out of our lives. 144 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:51,600 Anytime we we succumb to fear we it it is. 145 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:56,360 It is because we don't have a right perspective of God being 146 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,400 loved because that love literally drives out fear in our 147 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:00,680 lives. That is amazing. 148 00:10:00,680 --> 00:10:04,800 You should say Amen verse 19. We love because he first loved 149 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,320 us. Whoever claims to love God yet 150 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,360 hates a brother or sister is a liar. 151 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,440 For whoever does not love their brother and sister whom they 152 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:20,200 have seen cannot love God whom they have not seen. 153 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,960 And he has given us this command. 154 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:27,600 Anyone who loves God must also love their brothers and sisters. 155 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:31,400 The first thing that we have to realize is we have to understand 156 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:36,200 and receive the unconditional love of God and that love of God 157 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:40,360 that we have for God should show up in our relationships with one 158 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,880 another. Now looking at the at the the 159 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:48,480 condition of the church, we have yet to really understand how do 160 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:53,040 we love one another? We're having problems loving 161 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:58,680 people that love Jesus who and we're wondering why we can't 162 00:10:58,680 --> 00:11:02,520 reach the city. Well, here's the reason why is 163 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,800 because we haven't learned how to love one another. 164 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:11,480 The love God has for you received rightly and justly in 165 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:15,480 your life, understanding that you didn't earn it, He willingly 166 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,840 gave it to you by laying down his life so that you could 167 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,200 receive His love. It's that love that we share 168 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,960 with one another. And the Scripture says that how 169 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:29,200 we love one another is is the is, is how the world will know 170 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:35,240 we have a God that loves them. OK, so #1 receive his love #2 171 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:39,720 learn how to love one another. All right, That's you passed 172 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,560 both of those tests in the front row today. 173 00:11:41,560 --> 00:11:47,040 I was just reminding you. OK, so how do we love the 174 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:50,880 unlovable? How do we love the unlovable? 175 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:52,880 Turn with me to the book of Jonah. 176 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:57,240 So the book of Jonah is in the Old Testament. 177 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:02,920 And if you go to Matthew and turn left, you'll get like 9 178 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,720 books really quick. And then you'll, you'll land on 179 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,400 the book of Jonah. Now, is everybody familiar with 180 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,480 the book of Jonah, the story of Jonah? 181 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:16,640 And so I want us to go to a a Sunday school classic, a 182 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:24,200 children's church classic story to learn how to love the 183 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,160 unlovable. And if you haven't read the book 184 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,400 of Jonah, I would encourage you today. 185 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,440 It doesn't take you very long, probably 10 minutes to go 186 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:37,680 through very short chapters. But man, it is packed full of 187 00:12:37,680 --> 00:12:42,160 things for us to understand. And so here's what I tell people 188 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:43,400 that are looking for the book of Jonah. 189 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,160 Go to your table of contents in the beginning. 190 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:54,240 All right, Table of contents in my Bible, it's page 1441, 14 for 191 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,840 it, but I have large print. Anybody else have large print? 192 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,480 You have that small print. It's like 720 pages. 193 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,680 You're like, how you is that what's yours? 194 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:12,120 700 you got, But you got yeah, look at that in staff. 195 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,160 Sometimes it depends on how young you are. 196 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,960 They'll bring stuff that they print off the printer and it'll 197 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:22,000 be like in six font. And I'm like, I can't even read 198 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,600 this. I'm like, I'm thinking they're 199 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,800 just trying to pass something. So, you know, they're they do 200 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,920 their reports on 6 font so that I won't read them. 201 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,480 I'm like, dude, I need that at 12 font. 202 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,920 You know when he was. I digress. 203 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,920 Book of Jonah, the book of. So how do we love the unlovable? 204 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,320 If your love only works on lovable people, it's common. 205 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:48,960 That's awesome. Yeah, that's right. 206 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,560 Amen. So today I want to talk to you 207 00:13:52,560 --> 00:13:56,600 about loving the unlovable, not the easy people, not the 208 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,800 agreeable people, not the people who vote like you, think like 209 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:04,560 you, talk like you, dress like, you know, the unlovable. 210 00:14:04,560 --> 00:14:07,560 How do we love the unlovable? I don't think there's any better 211 00:14:07,560 --> 00:14:11,240 story to learn how to love the unlovable than the book of 212 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,480 Jonah. Matter of fact, how not to love 213 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:15,880 the unlovable is how we're going to do it. 214 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:20,040 And so here's here's how the book of Jonah kind of starts. 215 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,880 God tells Jonah to go to Nineveh. 216 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:26,960 Nineveh is 550 miles away from where Jonah is. 217 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:32,160 And God tells Jonah go to Nineveh and preach judgment. 218 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,600 It would be like God telling me, hey, here's what I need you to 219 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:38,040 do, son, I need you to go to Boston and I want you to tell 220 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,720 them that judgment is coming. And then I jump on a plane and 221 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:48,320 go to Vegas. 2500 miles in the opposite direction is where 222 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:52,280 Jonah goes. He's gotten a specific direction 223 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,560 and he goes exactly in the opposite direction. 224 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:57,200 New You know how the story goes, right? 225 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,440 Jonah goes in the opposite direction and then what happens? 226 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,720 A storm comes up. He's on a boat and is a storm 227 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,560 comes up and everybody on the boat is freaking out because 228 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,040 this storm is going to sink the boat. 229 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,520 So they start throwing stuff overboard. 230 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:15,760 They're chucking stuff overboard. 231 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:18,680 Matter of fact, the sailors are saying, OK, here's what I need 232 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,560 you to do. I don't care what God you serve. 233 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:26,960 Just start praying to that God. Everybody on this boat pray to 234 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,520 the God that you serve. And they start praying to the 235 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,120 gods they serve. But nothing happens. 236 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:37,560 Jonah's in the bottom of the boat and he's sleeping, and they 237 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,120 come down there like wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up. 238 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:44,600 And so then they get together and they cast lots. 239 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,760 All right, I think our weathermen should cast lots. 240 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:51,600 Don't you think it would be more biblical, wouldn't it? 241 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:58,720 Anyways, so they cast lots and the lot falls on Jonah. 242 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:03,360 So the sailors know the reason why this storm is happening is 243 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:07,360 because of the God of Jonah. So they start saying, Jonah, 244 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:08,880 what do we do? What do we do? 245 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,640 Who are you? Who do you serve? 246 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,040 Why are we in this situation that we have found ourselves? 247 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,760 And Jonah knows he was supposed to go to Nineveh. 248 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:22,600 See what happened was God told me to go this way and I went 249 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:24,800 that way. And the reason why this boat is 250 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,920 about to sink is because I'm not listening to God. 251 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:30,120 What do we do then? Jonah? 252 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:34,040 Here's what you do. You got to throw me overboard. 253 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,080 What? So imagine being in these 254 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:43,400 sailors spot. So you're telling me that the 255 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,960 reason why we're in this storm is because you didn't listen to 256 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:53,080 your God and your counsel to us is to pick you up and throw you 257 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,120 overboard? So the sailors are like, that's 258 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,920 not wise, my friends. We ain't doing that. 259 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:03,160 And what happens, the storm intensifies. 260 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:06,359 They're trying to get to the land and the storm intensifies 261 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:11,040 to the point where they're just like, we have no other way out 262 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:14,560 of this. So they pick Jonah up and they 263 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:19,760 Chuck him overboard. And what happens? 264 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:30,800 The storm calms down, and then out of the ocean, a fish arises 265 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:35,760 and swallows up Jonah. Is anybody in here just radical 266 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,160 enough to believe that this story actually did happen? 267 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:39,320 Yeah. OK. 268 00:17:39,360 --> 00:17:39,920 All right. Good. 269 00:17:40,120 --> 00:17:43,440 I got some of y'all. It's not just a Sunday school 270 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,400 classic. It's not just a children's 271 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:52,240 church, you know, a fairy tale, literally Jonah. 272 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,000 You can look it up in your history books. 273 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:59,160 Jonah was a prophet of the Lord. You can he is an actual guy. 274 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:04,320 So he is gets thrown overboard. The Lords sends a fish to 275 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,560 swallow them up. Now some people say a whale. 276 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,400 I like the whale aspect. OK, it's a whale. 277 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,280 It's a big fish. You ever been to SeaWorld? 278 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,760 Like, you ever seen one of those fishes actually take, like, a 279 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,400 person and they could swallow them? 280 00:18:20,360 --> 00:18:23,640 Yeah. So a fish comes up, swallows 281 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:29,360 Jonah, and inside this fish, Jonah prays. 282 00:18:29,360 --> 00:18:31,440 One of the most beautiful prayers in all of Scripture. 283 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:38,720 I'm going to read it to you. This is Jonah in the middle, in 284 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:43,160 the stomach of a whale. I don't know what day he sings 285 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:49,080 this, but he says this. In my distress I called to the 286 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:53,320 Lord, and he answered me from deep in the realm of the dead. 287 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,520 I called for help, and you listen to my cry. 288 00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:00,400 You hurled me into the depths, into the very heart of the Seas, 289 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,480 and the current swirled about me. 290 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,680 All your waves and Breakers swept over me. 291 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:09,200 I said, I have been banished from your sight, yet I will look 292 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:13,040 again towards your holy temple. The golfing waters threatened 293 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:17,160 me, the deep surrounded me, seaweed was wrapped around my 294 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:18,280 head. That's my favorite part. 295 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,360 To the roots of the mountains. I sank down to the earth 296 00:19:22,360 --> 00:19:27,640 beneath, barred me in forever. But you, Lord, my God, brought 297 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,760 my life up from the pit. And when my life was ebbing 298 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:36,000 away, I remembered you, Lord, and my prayer rose to you to 299 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,280 your holy temple. Those who cling to worthless 300 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,720 idols turn away from God's love for them. 301 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:46,520 But I, with shouts of grateful praise, will sacrifice to you 302 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:48,760 what I have vowed I will make good. 303 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:53,280 I will say salvation comes from the Lord in verse 10. 304 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:59,080 And the Lord commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry 305 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:03,240 land. Now listen, Jonah has this 306 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:08,400 prayer of repentance, he singing about the salvation of the Lord. 307 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:12,600 But if you read the book of Jonah, you will soon discover 308 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,840 that Jonah didn't repent. He repents of running, but he 309 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:21,200 didn't repent of hating. You'll find out really quickly 310 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:26,120 that the whale changed Joe as Jonah's direction, but it didn't 311 00:20:26,120 --> 00:20:29,960 change his heart. Jonah is worshipping, but he's 312 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:35,600 withholding. And you can sing in the belly of 313 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,400 a whale and still resent your city. 314 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:43,400 You can know the language of faith and resist the heart of 315 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:47,880 God. So in Jonah we see in this story 316 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:52,560 that he is spiritual in language but stubborn in direction. 317 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:57,120 He does not want to go to Nineveh because he hates the 318 00:20:57,120 --> 00:21:00,920 people of Nineveh. That's the whole reason why he 319 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,840 didn't go. So we can say the right things. 320 00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:10,880 We can have the the the language of faith and still in our heart 321 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:15,680 have bitterness towards people. And so here's the question for 322 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,960 you today. Who's your Nineveh, Who's your 323 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:23,520 Nineveh? Who do you secretly hope God 324 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:27,800 changes but doesn't bless? Who do you want corrected but 325 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:34,240 not covered in his mercy? You see, in order to love the 326 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,040 unlovable, we can't run from them. 327 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:46,400 We have to run towards them and every heart change starts with 328 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:50,560 prayer. So how do you practically walk 329 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,600 out loving the unlovable? I think you have to start 330 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:58,240 praying for people that you resent, not about them, but for 331 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:04,160 them by name every day, refusing to rehearse the offense, 332 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,440 speaking blessing when their name comes up. 333 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:12,160 Ask God to give you compassion before you offer correction. 334 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:16,720 Because in order to love the unlovable, we have to begin with 335 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:20,960 prayer. And then what happens is Jonah 336 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:26,680 ends up getting spewed up by the whale on the side of a, you 337 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:30,040 know, in, in land. And then the word of the Lord 338 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:34,120 comes to Jonah and he says, as he tells Jonah, here's what I 339 00:22:34,120 --> 00:22:36,160 need you to do. I need you to go to Nineveh. 340 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:42,280 And so Nineveh is the second largest city at the time, 341 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:47,080 Babylon being first. Nineveh has over 120,000 people 342 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,760 in it. It takes three days to walk 343 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:53,000 through Nineveh. The Lord tells Jonah. 344 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:59,160 I want you to say these 8 words. Jonah preaches the shortest 345 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:04,360 sermon, not ever recorded, but pretty, pretty close. 346 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,800 He's this is what he says. 40 more days and Nineveh will be 347 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:13,840 overthrown. He's one day in the city. 348 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:18,000 He just says these 8 words over and over and over again. 349 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:22,120 There's no altar call, no worship set, no emotional story, 350 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:27,840 no shock and awe, no great, great illustration. 351 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:31,320 And what happens when Jonah declares these 8 words? 352 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:37,520 The whole city repents from the king to the livestock. 353 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:42,120 One of the greatest revivals ever recorded in history 354 00:23:42,120 --> 00:23:46,640 happened in Nineveh. Because Jonah said these 8 355 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:52,720 words, 40 more days and Nineveh will be overthrown. 356 00:23:52,800 --> 00:24:00,040 But Jonah was furious. He was angry that the city 357 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:02,760 repented. Matter of fact, I looked in the 358 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:07,960 history books to try to see if I could find the effects of this 359 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:11,600 revival, one of the greatest revivals it recorded in 360 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,720 scripture. You would think you would be 361 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:18,240 able to find the effects of this revival that Jonah declares of 362 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:19,640 these 8 words. And you know what? 363 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:26,040 You can't find it at all. Matter of fact, Nineveh actually 364 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:30,640 later on in history ends up destroying part of Israel. 365 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:33,920 And do you know why? This is what I think? 366 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,200 I think it's because the condition of the prophet's heart 367 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,120 determined the direction of that whole city. 368 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:49,560 He declared judgment, but when the people responded to said 369 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:54,080 judgment and relented, and I mean when they repented and God 370 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:58,760 relented, he was still angry. He wanted judgment, not 371 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,080 restoration. He wanted to be right, but then 372 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,480 not to be reconciled. Why? 373 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,720 Because God loved people. Jonah hated. 374 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,360 Wow, think about that for a second. 375 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,560 You don't have to respond. You can just take this home and 376 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:16,800 think about it for a couple days. 377 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,040 Do you know that God loves people we hate? 378 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:27,400 That is crazy to think about. And we can present our cases and 379 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:34,600 we're right, but are we? You see, these people hated God, 380 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:39,640 and Jonah knew that. And here's the deal. 381 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,440 God's mercy doesn't run through your preference filter. 382 00:25:43,360 --> 00:25:46,280 It doesn't go according to your algorithm. 383 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:53,560 God's mercy is so amazing. And that's the tension we find 384 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,040 ourselves in. And it's easy to love people who 385 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:59,400 look like us, think like us, vote like us, act like us. 386 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:03,520 We can attend church, we can preach the right sermons, and we 387 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,720 can serve. And then we can secretly hope 388 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:15,400 people fail. It is just the way it is and and 389 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:19,400 here looking and look in chapter 4 verse 2, Jonas says this. 390 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,560 He said he prayed to the Lord. Isn't this what I said Lord, 391 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,480 when I was still at home? This is this is what I tried to 392 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:33,000 forestall by fleeing to Tarsus. I knew that you are a gracious 393 00:26:33,360 --> 00:26:37,600 and compassionate God, slow to anger and abounding in love. 394 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,800 A God who relents from sending calamity. 395 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:45,800 The reason why Jonah didn't want to go to Nineveh is because he 396 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,720 hated them. And the reason why he didn't 397 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:52,320 want to go is because he knew the very character and nature of 398 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,040 God. He is a prophet of the Lord. 399 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:59,560 He has declared judgment and seen the compassionate God 400 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:04,160 relent on coming judgment and he didn't want to go there because 401 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:09,320 he thought if he said it they had a chance to repent and God 402 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:16,280 would relent. Uncommon love goes where no one 403 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:20,120 wants to go. If your love only works on 404 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,960 people that are easy to love, it's common love. 405 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:29,200 Uncommon love goes to people that you would rather not. 406 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,480 And here's the thing about uncommon love. 407 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,200 Here's the thing about loving the unlovable. 408 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,160 You're not waiting for an apology. 409 00:27:37,120 --> 00:27:45,240 You're not expecting it to it to kindness to be reciprocated in 410 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:50,360 your life. You love without expecting 411 00:27:50,360 --> 00:27:55,160 anything in return. And so here's my point here. 412 00:27:56,200 --> 00:28:00,320 I think the move of God we pray for is likely going to offend 413 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:06,600 us. It's going to mess things up. 414 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:13,920 We pray, we want revival. And then when revival comes to 415 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,680 the doors of our churches, we're going to be like, say what? 416 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:24,480 Do what you prayed, he answered and pleased. 417 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:31,080 Let's be careful and not be like Jonah where we're mad at God for 418 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:35,920 being compassionate and slow to anger so the move of God we pray 419 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:40,480 for might offend us. And then finally this morning, 420 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,720 shade over souls. I love the ending of Jonah. 421 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:50,160 The ending of Jonah is so interesting to me and people 422 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:54,080 rush past it like I was thinking to myself, who? 423 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:58,800 Let me ask you some some questions and then we'll get to 424 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:04,440 the last point. Who is the book of Jonah about? 425 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:10,480 It's about, it's not about Jonah. 426 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,960 You know how the book of Jonah is about God? 427 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:19,080 The book of Jonah is about God. Do you know who wrote the book 428 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:23,040 of Jonah? Jonah. 429 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:30,320 Now, scholars might disagree with that, but do you know what 430 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,840 perspective you have in the book of Jonah? 431 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:38,800 It's like literally Jonah wrote this because he was in the 432 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:44,400 middle of a fish for three days and he wrote the book of Jonah. 433 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,120 And so the, the ending is weird. Like if you read the book of 434 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:49,960 Jonah and read it this afternoon, it won't take you 435 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:51,280 very long. At the end. 436 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,640 You're trying to figure out, at least I was, I was trying to 437 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:57,880 figure out how did this thing end, what's going on, what 438 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:02,600 happened? And so here's the deal, the city 439 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:07,000 revival. What does Jonah do after the 440 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,880 city repents and God relents, what does he do? 441 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:17,960 He goes outside of the city, builds a shelter and just wants 442 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:23,520 to die and he's angry. He builds the shelter and he's 443 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:27,960 waiting for judgment is what he's waiting for. 444 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,320 He's declared. Have you ever had somebody like 445 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,280 that in your life? You just see God work in their 446 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:38,960 life and you're like, not them. No way. 447 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,280 He sees a city. I mean the king livestock, 448 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:48,920 everybody's repentant, want to follow God and Jonah's like, I'm 449 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:53,520 out of here people. And he goes like, I'm going to 450 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:58,520 build me a Hut and sit here until God changes his mind and 451 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:03,040 destroys all you. And you know what the Lord does? 452 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:12,600 Causes a plant to grow. This plant grows and shades 453 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,240 Jonah. Who? 454 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:20,240 Wait a second here. What's amazing to me is that we 455 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:26,840 can be as angry as Jonah and the Lord still takes care of us. 456 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:33,720 He still shades us. Wow, that is wild to me. 457 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:39,720 So this plant grows up and shades Jonah and Jonah. 458 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:43,400 This is awesome. Verse 6, chapter 4. 459 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:47,640 Then the Lord God provided A leafy plant and made it grow up 460 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,120 over Jonah's head to give him shade. 461 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:51,960 I was thinking he's a little like me. 462 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:55,200 Yeah, Everybody, anybody losing their hair, If you're losing 463 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,320 your hair and you spend spend a little bit of time in that bacon 464 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:01,720 sun, you going? You going to want some shade. 465 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:07,480 So I think it is really hot and that sun is, is is just being on 466 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:11,600 his balding head. And then the Lord shades him. 467 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:16,400 He made it grow up over Jonah to give him shade for his head to 468 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,000 ease his discomfort. Man, I was like, dude, I have 469 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:23,080 been there man. And Jonah was very happy about 470 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:28,080 the plant. It's the only time in the whole 471 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:33,760 book of Jonah where he's happy. What? 472 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:38,280 He's not happy that he got rescued from a whale? 473 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,840 He's not happy that the sailors repented? 474 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:45,960 He's not happy that a whole city is in a revival. 475 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:47,960 You know what Jonah's happy about? 476 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,440 I got some shade for my balding head. 477 00:32:56,560 --> 00:33:00,760 It's wild to me. And then what does God do? 478 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:04,760 He appoints a worm to destroy the plan. 479 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,680 And Jonah says this. He says it would be better for 480 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:14,080 me to die than to live. So Jonah goes from happy because 481 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:17,680 he's got shades and now he's wanting to die because God took 482 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:21,440 the shade away and God asked him a question. 483 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:25,360 He says do you have the right to be angry about the plant? 484 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:30,920 And what does Jonah says in verse 9? 485 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,720 But God said to Jonah, is it right for you to be angry about 486 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:35,400 the plant? He says it is. 487 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:41,800 He said I am so angry I wish I was dead. 488 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:49,320 Jonah cares more about that leaf in that shade than he does the 489 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:54,280 120,000 people. He grieves personal discomfort 490 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:58,640 more than spiritual lostness. The plant isn't the point. 491 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:03,720 The plant exposed Jonah's heart. Jonah didn't plant it. 492 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:05,640 He didn't water it. He didn't grow it. 493 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:07,000 But he loved it. Why? 494 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:11,080 Because that plant served him. It brought him comfort. 495 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:13,000 And isn't that what comfort does? 496 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:17,239 Comfort becomes sacred if we're not careful. 497 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,560 We can care more about preference than we do about 498 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,120 people. We can care more about comfort 499 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:26,239 than we do about calling. We can care more about shade 500 00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:29,600 than we do for souls. And let's be honest, we're not 501 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,000 the only Joan is not the only one that deals with this. 502 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,639 We deal with this. We deal with this in our 503 00:34:34,639 --> 00:34:38,800 churches. You know when the music hits 504 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:44,719 just right, When the temperature is exactly the way it's supposed 505 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,840 to be, When the direction benefits our generation, when 506 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,239 decisions align with what we prefer. 507 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:55,400 We can get surprisingly emotional when those things 508 00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:59,800 change, can't we? And meanwhile, marriages are 509 00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:03,000 falling apart. Meanwhile, there are people far 510 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,560 from God, families being destroyed, teenagers dealing 511 00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:11,520 with suicidal thoughts, anxiety and depression, A whole world 512 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:18,080 lost. And we're worried about shade 513 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:23,440 preference. It's real, my friends. 514 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:27,760 It's real. And that's not condemnation, 515 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:31,400 that's just reflection. It's just perspective. 516 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:35,480 It's a call to maturity is what it is. 517 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:39,520 When you receive the unconditional love of God, you 518 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:43,600 learn how to love one another. And here's what I say, you know, 519 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:48,920 sometimes it's not easy to love people, but if you really 520 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:52,400 understand that they love Jesus, just start there. 521 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,560 You don't have to agree with everything they do. 522 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,160 You don't have to agree with everything they say. 523 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:03,040 You can say that individual I know has had an encounter with 524 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,360 Jesus and they have had a change of heart. 525 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,200 I will start there and move forward. 526 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:14,160 And then loving the unlovable will be the next call for us. 527 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:19,040 So we'd stop tripping over things that in the end of the 528 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:25,520 day don't really matter as much as that city matters. 529 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:30,520 You see, God was telling Jonah, you're so worried about this 530 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,040 plant that you didn't create, you didn't water it. 531 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:39,640 I'm worried about the city full of people that are lost. 532 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:47,640 You have, you know me, Jonah. You know my character, you know 533 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:52,720 my nature, you know me. There's a whole city that 534 00:36:52,720 --> 00:36:56,560 doesn't know me. And so here's the deal. 535 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,520 The move of God we pray for is going to cost you your shade. 536 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:04,080 Revival is messy. Growth is inconvenient. 537 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,440 Reaching new people changes things. 538 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:11,280 And don't get into the place where Jonah was, where you can 539 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:14,240 celebrate growth but resent who it reaches. 540 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:19,040 So here's a question for you. What is your plan today? 541 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:22,200 Is it comfort? Is it preference? 542 00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,840 Is it your political bent? Is it your image? 543 00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:31,480 If you care more about those things than you do the soul of 544 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:35,240 an individual that God created, you are out of alignment. 545 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:40,480 And that's just real. And so in order to love the 546 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:45,040 unlovable, we need to stop being spiritual in language and 547 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:48,800 stubborn in direction. We need to realize that the move 548 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,920 of God that Jesus has in store for us is going to look 549 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:55,640 different, and it might offend us, likely will. 550 00:37:56,520 --> 00:38:03,520 And we need to stop worrying so much about shade and focus more 551 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:12,640 about souls. Jonah was in the fish for three 552 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:15,040 days because he ran from his enemies. 553 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:19,560 Jesus was in the grave three days because he ran towards his 554 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,920 enemies. Jonah sat outside his city 555 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:26,840 hoping it would burn. Jesus stood over Jerusalem and 556 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:30,840 wept. Jonah was angry at mercy. 557 00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:35,000 Jesus literally became mercy for us, Jonah said. 558 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:38,520 I knew you were compassionate and Jesus stretched out his arms 559 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:41,880 to prove it. Loving the unlovable is not 560 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:43,800 natural. It's going to take the 561 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:49,120 supernatural love of Jesus to do that and he has called us to 562 00:38:49,160 --> 00:39:02,320 love those that are unlovable. I was I was thinking how to land 563 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,040 a message like this. It's, it's super challenging and 564 00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:08,640 I hope you reflect on it during this day is like who, who is 565 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:13,480 your Neba? Who have you been running from 566 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,960 instead of running to? I want you to pay attention to 567 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:20,120 that. God told Jonah to go to Nineveh. 568 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:24,400 So don't just go to people that you think you should go to. 569 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:26,440 Go to people he tells you you go to. 570 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:28,400 You're resisting the Holy Spirit. 571 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:32,320 So stop resisting him and then start moving towards that 572 00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:35,000 direction in a simple, practical way. 573 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,800 You can always start by praying for them, not against them, 574 00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:43,000 praying by name. Every time their name comes up, 575 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:47,480 pray for them and and start moving in that direction. 576 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:50,600 You know, I was somebody's Nineveh. 577 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:56,360 Can I just be real with you? I spent the majority of, well, 578 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:58,720 not the majority now because I'm older now. 579 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:01,720 The older you get the yeah, you just forget how old you are. 580 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,920 I didn't come to Jesus until I was 24 years old. 581 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:10,680 And for 24 years, I resisted him. 582 00:40:12,240 --> 00:40:15,240 And I was somebody's Nineveh. There was a, there was a time in 583 00:40:15,240 --> 00:40:19,320 my life where I was atheist. There was many time in my life 584 00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:22,400 where I hated God. I mean, literally, I mean, that 585 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:27,240 might sound weird that a pastor would say that, but literally I, 586 00:40:27,240 --> 00:40:32,000 I hated God. And I could look the history of 587 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,040 my life. I can look back at it now. 588 00:40:34,720 --> 00:40:41,720 And there were people of God that Jesus sent, and I was 589 00:40:41,720 --> 00:40:46,440 Nineveh. I literally was Nineveh. 590 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:52,440 And he was sending people to tell me how much Jesus loved me. 591 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:57,880 And I would look at them and tell them to get away from me. 592 00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:02,040 I don't want to have anything to do with what you're talking 593 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:03,080 about. Jesus. 594 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:04,120 Who? Jesus what? 595 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:07,720 Get. SHH, this is what you're doing. 596 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,960 This is what I want you to do. Shut up. 597 00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:15,360 I don't want to hear about him. Consistently all through my 598 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:23,120 life, every season, he would send somebody and I remember I 599 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:28,200 wasn't scared of hell until I came to the Lord, until I had 600 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,360 that moment with Jesus. And I would have people that be 601 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:34,520 like, look, you can't. I can live any way I want to 602 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:39,000 tell me how to live. And they would just love and 603 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,680 they would just love and they would just love. 604 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:48,760 And my hard heart, I didn't even know God was doing it, but my 605 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:59,320 hard heart that was anti God began to break just a little bit 606 00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:05,480 at a time, a little bit and a little bit and a little bit to 607 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:08,920 the point where I gave my heart to Him. 608 00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:14,640 Amen. There are nine of us in our 609 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:21,320 lives and we're expecting that when we share these 8 words that 610 00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:25,400 the Lord gives us that they will just automatically repent and be 611 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:29,080 like, I love you Jesus. That is not how this thing's 612 00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:32,640 going to work. The unlovable people in your 613 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:37,960 life that God is calling you to love are likely to respond in a 614 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:42,240 negative fashion. You're going to have some 615 00:42:42,240 --> 00:42:45,440 expectation on how they should respond. 616 00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:49,640 But again, that's your love being conditional and not 617 00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:54,280 unconditional. But there's a heart in every man 618 00:42:54,440 --> 00:43:01,280 and every woman that God is saying, That's my son, that's my 619 00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:04,240 daughter. You go tell them how much I love 620 00:43:04,240 --> 00:43:06,640 them. You go tell them how much I love 621 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:08,800 them. You go tell them how much I love 622 00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:10,800 them. You go tell them how much I love 623 00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:11,440 them. Why? 624 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:14,040 Because God's love is relentless. 625 00:43:14,240 --> 00:43:17,520 God's love never fails. It never stops. 626 00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:20,320 He never thinks. It stops thinking about lost 627 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:22,440 people. He's always after them. 628 00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:26,000 He's always after them. Anytime you're like, I wonder if 629 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:28,560 I should share. Yes, you should share his love. 630 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:32,520 Yes, you should share His love all the time, every day. 631 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:35,520 Share His love, share His love, share His love. 632 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:37,960 Why? Because God is love. 633 00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:41,800 And if we're not loving like God, they're not seeing the very 634 00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:46,480 nature and aspect of God. It's love never fails, it will 635 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:49,240 never stop. And listen, it's like that for 636 00:43:49,240 --> 00:43:51,720 you. It doesn't matter what you do, 637 00:43:51,720 --> 00:43:53,840 He loves you. He's always loved you. 638 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:57,200 He will always love you. He will always love you, He will 639 00:43:57,240 --> 00:43:59,640 always love you. Well, hey, you don't know what I 640 00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:02,200 did it. He will always love you. 641 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:04,880 He will All you don't know about the season I've been. 642 00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:07,720 He will always love you. He will always love you. 643 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:11,320 He does. He will never stop loving you. 644 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:16,240 His love is relentless. His love is unconditional. 645 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,880 His love is so powerful for you and I. 646 00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:24,520 His love will win the city, His love will win the city. 647 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:26,760 His love will restore your marriage. 648 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,400 His love will restore your family. 649 00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:32,840 His love, His love, His love, His love, his love. 650 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:36,520 It's all about his love. And somebodies in here saying 651 00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:40,040 well what about the truth? Well the truth is this, His love 652 00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:42,800 never fails. That's the truth, That's the 653 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,080 truth, that's the truth. It's the very foundation in 654 00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:48,320 which this thing is all built on. 655 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,360 It's not built on what we could do. 656 00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:55,560 It's built on what he did. And he died because he first 657 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:59,880 loved you. End of conversation. 658 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:05,200 Love always wins. It always wins. 659 00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:11,640 And that love, my friends, is what the Church possesses, that 660 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:16,400 no one else possesses, because everybody else's love is 661 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:20,240 conditional. His love is unconditional. 662 00:45:20,240 --> 00:45:22,600 Can you stand with me this morning? 663 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:26,480 Did you get anything out of that? 664 00:45:26,480 --> 00:46:00,720 I will appreciate and. It's in the moments that I have 665 00:46:00,720 --> 00:46:08,520 blown it the most, that God has loved me the most and I didn't 666 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:14,040 understand it. I went, I think repentance is a 667 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:19,520 lifestyle and I have found myself in the presence of the 668 00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:26,000 Lord asking for forgiveness in every single time, every single 669 00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:33,040 time I am, I encounter his love and I I don't deserve it. 670 00:46:33,240 --> 00:46:36,840 I don't expect it. And for some reason it surprises 671 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:40,840 me every time I get to the point of vulnerability with the Lord 672 00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:42,960 saying I don't want you to go there. 673 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:46,400 I'm uncomfortable. And this is what he says, This 674 00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:49,520 is my son. You are my son whom I love with 675 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:54,040 you. I am well pleased unconditional 676 00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:56,760 love of God. Matter of fact, I have used the 677 00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:59,960 same thing is the same love the Father shows me. 678 00:46:59,960 --> 00:47:06,640 I show my beautiful kids every time they come into daddy's room 679 00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:09,360 and say Dad, I'm sorry I did something. 680 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:13,640 The first thing I tell them is I love you so much. 681 00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:20,200 I love you so much. I love you so much. 682 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:24,080 There's nothing that you can get yourself into that the love of 683 00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:29,080 God can't get you out of. And so maybe you're in here this 684 00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:32,240 morning and you've been trying to work this thing out. 685 00:47:32,240 --> 00:47:36,240 You have been trying to do in your own strength what only 686 00:47:36,240 --> 00:47:44,040 God's love can do in your life. And you've hit that moment and 687 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:47,880 the Lord has sent me here this morning to tell you that, son 688 00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:50,440 and daughter, He is well pleased with you. 689 00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:53,800 He loves you with an unconditional love. 690 00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:57,240 Matter of fact, it's that love that will lead you to the 691 00:47:57,240 --> 00:47:59,320 greatest change you have in your life. 692 00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:05,520 The most transformational aspects in your life happen from 693 00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:10,080 a revelation of His love. It's not because you do it in 694 00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:12,520 your own strength. It's because you've known what 695 00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:16,320 He has already done that gives you the grace to do what you 696 00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:20,880 can't do in your own strength. It's that love and what I pray 697 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:25,280 this morning all across this room, all across this room that 698 00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:30,400 we would be reminded of the love that you have for us. 699 00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:33,680 Maybe that's you today. Could you just raise your hand 700 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:35,280 today? If, if that's you, if you've, 701 00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:38,800 you've just been trying, I just had the sense you have been 702 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:43,360 pushing towards working. You're working it out in your 703 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:46,600 own strength. And today you have just you just 704 00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:49,080 you just want to give up. You just want to let go. 705 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:51,240 If that's you, just raise your hand all across this room. 706 00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:53,200 I see your hand. How many more? 707 00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:54,760 How many more? How many more? 708 00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:59,360 I see that hand, How many more? His love never fails. 709 00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:02,480 His love never fails. His love never fails. 710 00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:05,360 His love never fails towards you. 711 00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:09,120 Lord, we thank you for your love that never fails. 712 00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:13,280 Father, I pray that that love flows from the top of our heads 713 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,960 to the bottom of our toes. Lord, that your love heals and 714 00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:18,960 restores. Lord, I pray for bodies to be 715 00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:20,080 restored. Why? 716 00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:24,160 Just because we encounter your love, just because we are in 717 00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:28,400 your presence, just because we're we are aligned and your 718 00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:35,160 love heals and restores in Jesus mighty name, your unconditional 719 00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:38,160 love. And maybe you're in here this 720 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:41,680 morning and you've never committed your life to Jesus. 721 00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:47,240 You have a form of godliness. Maybe you've attended services. 722 00:49:47,240 --> 00:49:49,920 You're you're trying to figure out who Jesus is. 723 00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:53,200 But can I tell you God is love? He sent me here this morning to 724 00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:59,600 tell you that he wants you as as, as his son or daughter, that 725 00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:02,920 he wants you. And it's just so simple. 726 00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:06,680 It's so simple but profound. It says that if you would 727 00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:10,120 believe on Jesus that you would be his. 728 00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:13,960 For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that 729 00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:16,760 whoever would believe in him would not perish, but would have 730 00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:20,600 everlasting life. God's design, His purpose is so 731 00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:23,600 that he could reconcile you towards Him. 732 00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:27,080 And so maybe today you've been trying to figure this thing out, 733 00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:31,400 and today the Holy Spirit is guiding you to give your heart 734 00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:33,200 to Him.
