1 00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:07,400 Thanks for checking out the anchor Faith. 2 00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:09,800 Message podcast from st. Augustine Florida. 3 00:00:10,300 --> 00:00:21,400 Now enjoyed this message. What if you have your Bibles 4 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:25,400 today turn over to Revelation chapter 22 Revelations chapter. 5 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:30,900 22. I was thinking back Wednesday 6 00:00:30,900 --> 00:00:33,500 night when I wasn't in service and I was you know, having some 7 00:00:33,500 --> 00:00:38,100 massive withdrawals Anybody have withdrawals like me on Wednesday 8 00:00:38,100 --> 00:00:39,300 night, you're like, man, I'm not in church. 9 00:00:39,300 --> 00:00:43,700 I'm like struggling right now. Now, you know that may sound 10 00:00:43,700 --> 00:00:46,500 silly but you know, I love to come together. 11 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,900 I love it. I love and I understand that God 12 00:00:49,900 --> 00:00:53,900 didn't leave me, I didn't go to hell because of it, right? 13 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:59,100 But at the end of the day, I love assembly, I love the 14 00:00:59,100 --> 00:01:01,900 command. The Lord said do not forsake the 15 00:01:01,900 --> 00:01:05,400 assembling of yourselves together and I love it and so, 16 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,900 but I I said, you know, probably an 18 years, we've probably only 17 00:01:08,900 --> 00:01:13,100 not done to services at the end of the day only to so that's 18 00:01:13,100 --> 00:01:15,300 pretty good track record across the board. 19 00:01:15,300 --> 00:01:19,800 I mean, if every 18 years you only miss to, you know, your 20 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:24,500 your your together then man, we're doing something right now 21 00:01:24,500 --> 00:01:26,900 is God in the assembly? Yes. 22 00:01:27,100 --> 00:01:28,500 Yes. He is. 23 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,300 For anyone to think he's not, is a liar. 24 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,900 He is in the assembly because he is the head of the church. 25 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:40,600 Church, which are many members fitted and jointed together in 26 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,300 the same location. Hallelujah. 27 00:01:43,900 --> 00:01:47,500 So he's definitely in the assembly and the anointing is 28 00:01:47,500 --> 00:01:52,300 greater in the assembly, than in your own personal life. 29 00:01:52,300 --> 00:01:59,500 Because he says, one can send a thousand to will send 10,000. 30 00:01:59,700 --> 00:02:03,700 So, there's Anna multiplying effect of anointing in numbers, 31 00:02:04,100 --> 00:02:05,900 so don't ever let the devil to deceive. 32 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,500 A view that you by yourselves. Good enough. 33 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:13,000 You by yourself is a sheep waiting to get eaten by a wolf 34 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,600 as what you really are, and you think that you've got it 35 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:22,100 together, but you need to come together because that's where 36 00:02:22,100 --> 00:02:24,200 safety is. Let me just say it this way. 37 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:31,600 The father in this Parable, he will leave the 99. 38 00:02:31,700 --> 00:02:34,600 The shepherd will leave the 99 and go van. 39 00:02:36,300 --> 00:02:39,400 Think about this now, because we never preach this. 40 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,700 What does the shepherd see in the 99 that he's willing to 41 00:02:44,700 --> 00:02:50,300 leavel? We always talk and focus on the 42 00:02:50,300 --> 00:02:52,300 one. I'll look how I came and ran the 43 00:02:52,300 --> 00:02:54,100 one down. Well, first of all, the one was 44 00:02:54,100 --> 00:02:56,900 lost. I mean, it's not like the one 45 00:02:56,900 --> 00:03:01,300 should be celebrated. Although we celebrate them once, 46 00:03:01,300 --> 00:03:04,800 he brings them, that's where the celebration happens. 47 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,900 The celebration doesn't happen while they're lost the 48 00:03:07,900 --> 00:03:10,700 celebration happens. When he gets them back to the, 49 00:03:11,500 --> 00:03:15,900 the 99 and the 99 was able to be strong enough to say, go ahead 50 00:03:15,900 --> 00:03:21,600 and find them. We only want to preach about the 51 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:28,000 one and not see the strengths in the 99 that the shepherd will 52 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,700 leave. The 99, is there only one wolf? 53 00:03:33,900 --> 00:03:36,200 Are you want to hear this? I'm not going to preach it, 54 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,000 though. I'll just stay off at now. 55 00:03:38,500 --> 00:03:41,900 I might start preaching it revelation. 22 verse 12. 56 00:03:42,300 --> 00:03:45,500 Jesus says this behold, I am coming quickly. 57 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,000 Now his clinic in your quickly or two different quick leaves, 58 00:03:48,300 --> 00:03:52,100 but he is quickly coming. He said, behold, I am coming 59 00:03:52,100 --> 00:03:56,400 quickly and my what, my, what my, what? 60 00:03:56,500 --> 00:03:57,600 Come on, say it loud. My. 61 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,300 What you get, louder, I'll preach shorter. 62 00:04:01,300 --> 00:04:07,400 My reward is with me to render to every man according to what 63 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,100 he has done. This is a New Testament 64 00:04:10,500 --> 00:04:13,900 scripture that is in the Book of Revelation. 65 00:04:13,900 --> 00:04:22,800 The last chapter And he's coming to give an award reward to those 66 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:27,300 that are doing something I said doing something, okay? 67 00:04:27,700 --> 00:04:31,600 So just being in the house isn't enough, we've got to be doing, 68 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,600 how's business? All right, and he says I'm 69 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:39,000 coming quickly. My reward is with me. 70 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,000 So does Jesus have a reward to bring? 71 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:48,600 Are you expecting your reward? Most people are Only expecting 72 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,800 to just be in heaven when they die. 73 00:04:52,100 --> 00:04:55,700 They're not ready for a reward, nor they were expecting one. 74 00:04:55,700 --> 00:05:00,800 In fact, they would almost be considered arrogant or prideful 75 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,100 to think. God would have a reward for 76 00:05:03,100 --> 00:05:04,600 them. They should just be thankful 77 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,900 that they're not going to hell. Yet Jesus says I'm coming 78 00:05:08,900 --> 00:05:13,600 quickly and I have a reward with me to give to what how many men 79 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,900 every man to render to every man. 80 00:05:18,300 --> 00:05:22,400 So as Believers we should have this for understanding, there's 81 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:30,200 a reward to gain and it's not just Heaven, it's not just 82 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:35,400 heaven. He has a reward so if he's 83 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,600 bringing a reward, how does he know who gets what? 84 00:05:41,100 --> 00:05:45,200 Because he's going to render it to every man, how according, 85 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,100 which means, it's not the same reward, so it can't be heaven. 86 00:05:51,100 --> 00:05:54,900 It can't be Heaven because is render to every man, according 87 00:05:54,900 --> 00:05:57,600 to what he has done and what have you done to earn Heaven. 88 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:04,400 You not done anything to earn Heaven because by All rights, 89 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,900 when you call on the name of Jesus and became a new child of 90 00:06:06,900 --> 00:06:10,500 God, a new creature in Christ. If you would have dropped dead, 91 00:06:10,500 --> 00:06:11,800 right? Then you're going to be present 92 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,700 with the Lord and you've done nothing to earn heaven. 93 00:06:16,500 --> 00:06:20,500 So there's something else in this life that we're doing that 94 00:06:20,500 --> 00:06:22,300 God. Must be recording. 95 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:28,600 In order to render a reward, you receive rewards because of 96 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:33,700 something accomplished. Well, how many are doing the 97 00:06:33,700 --> 00:06:36,700 Bible reading plan? And aren't you excited? 98 00:06:36,700 --> 00:06:38,800 Because we're in the chronological, you get to go to 99 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,400 the New Testament, finally, right? 100 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,300 You get to get to the New Covenant, your life. 101 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:49,700 Praise God. Luke we're in Luke. 102 00:06:49,700 --> 00:06:52,200 What that means? You just read malecha, which 103 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,800 means you just read this in Malachi chapter 3. 104 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,600 Look at this. How many you this kind of popped 105 00:06:58,600 --> 00:06:59,800 in? And I'm going to have Amplified 106 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,100 classic cause that's the translation I'm reading this. 107 00:07:02,700 --> 00:07:06,600 Says, then those who fear the lord talked often to one another 108 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,900 and the Lord, listened and heard it. 109 00:07:10,300 --> 00:07:14,200 And a book of now notice this is not the book of life. 110 00:07:15,900 --> 00:07:20,000 There's another book. I said there's another book. 111 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:25,300 And a book of remembrance was written before him of those who 112 00:07:25,300 --> 00:07:32,000 reverenced and worship worshipfully fear the lord, and 113 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:36,000 who thought on his name and it shall be. 114 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,900 Mine says the Lord are scuse me and they shall be mine, says the 115 00:07:39,900 --> 00:07:45,200 Lord of hosts in that day when I publicly recognized and openly 116 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:50,600 declare them to be my Jewels, my special possession, my peculiar 117 00:07:50,700 --> 00:07:53,400 Treasure. I will spare them as a man, 118 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:57,000 spares his own son, who, what serves him? 119 00:07:57,300 --> 00:08:01,400 So there comes a day that this book of remembrance, is going to 120 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:07,300 get opened. Now, Joe Psalms verse 56. 121 00:08:07,300 --> 00:08:12,500 Verse 8 says, this is says, you have taken account of my misery 122 00:08:12,900 --> 00:08:18,400 put my tears in your bottle, are they not in your book? 123 00:08:18,500 --> 00:08:20,600 Now crime doesn't get you to heaven. 124 00:08:20,700 --> 00:08:25,100 Even so crying and misery, does it put you in the Book of Life? 125 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:29,400 The Lamb's Book of Life is not obtained or you're not written 126 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:34,900 there because you cried out to God to, you know, remember all 127 00:08:34,900 --> 00:08:36,600 the troubles you've had down here. 128 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:43,100 So this is obviously a different book yet when you go through 129 00:08:43,100 --> 00:08:49,400 various trials and tribulations, and you are fearful of the Lord 130 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:54,400 and your call. On his name and any suffering 131 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,400 you're doing for his sake, they're going to be recorded in 132 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:03,900 a book of remembrance. There's nothing going on in your 133 00:09:03,900 --> 00:09:07,000 life. God is Not documenting. 134 00:09:09,300 --> 00:09:12,100 Now I said this a couple Services ago I don't remember 135 00:09:12,100 --> 00:09:14,900 which one whether it was a Wednesday or Sunday, but it's 136 00:09:14,900 --> 00:09:17,700 going to bear repeating at this point because not everybody was 137 00:09:17,700 --> 00:09:21,600 in there. I often has a, you know, a 138 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:26,000 person who oversees individuals that there's this term 139 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,400 especially in the business world that is considered very negative 140 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,100 and very negative. And if you are in a position of 141 00:09:34,100 --> 00:09:41,100 oversight and you seem to be doing Are are overseeing the 142 00:09:41,100 --> 00:09:47,900 people in this capacity, you're considered - like, you don't 143 00:09:47,900 --> 00:09:53,200 have good leadership and that is a micro manager. 144 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:58,400 Right people don't micromanage me like if you if you're an 145 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:02,100 overseer that's micromanaging then by all rights. 146 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,000 The the context is you don't trust them. 147 00:10:05,100 --> 00:10:09,600 You're not giving them their ability to lead and to flourish 148 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,100 and allow their own gift to come out. 149 00:10:12,500 --> 00:10:17,700 Well, the problem is God is a micromanager And I'm going to 150 00:10:17,708 --> 00:10:23,400 show you that here in a second because even job new of a book 151 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,300 job said in the 19th, Chapter, verse 23 and 25, he says, oh, 152 00:10:28,300 --> 00:10:32,600 that my words were written all that, they were recorded in a 153 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:38,400 book that with an iron stylist, and, and led, they were engraved 154 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:42,200 in the rock forever yet, as for me, I know that my redeemer 155 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,600 lives, man. Even before Jesus came. 156 00:10:45,700 --> 00:10:50,300 They knew the Gamers coming. He said at last, he will take 157 00:10:50,300 --> 00:10:54,900 his stand on the earth. He knew man. 158 00:10:54,900 --> 00:10:59,600 If if how I am following and honoring, if they could just 159 00:10:59,700 --> 00:11:04,200 write it down, I mean this is Joe who's being accused of his 160 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,900 best friends that he's got to have this gross sin in his life 161 00:11:07,900 --> 00:11:11,500 for all this bad stuff to be happening to him and they're 162 00:11:11,500 --> 00:11:16,400 just Railing at him constant. He's like man if only somebody 163 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:20,200 could have Accorded, how I was living my life. 164 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:25,200 Not like these guys say, But at the end of the day, I know my 165 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,300 redeemer lives and that in essence, he's going to give an 166 00:11:28,300 --> 00:11:33,800 account. Of my life before others look 167 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:38,100 what it says in Matthew chapter 12 Jesus says this himself. 168 00:11:38,900 --> 00:11:43,600 He says but I tell you that for every careless word that people 169 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:51,800 speak, they will give an account of it when On the day of 170 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,400 judgment. Now, some would say, wait a 171 00:11:54,408 --> 00:11:56,000 minute. Now we're not destined for 172 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,500 judgment. Well, you are destined for the 173 00:11:58,500 --> 00:12:03,300 Judgment seat of Christ. You are destined for that. 174 00:12:03,300 --> 00:12:07,500 It's a reward ceremony. I said it's a reward ceremony 175 00:12:08,100 --> 00:12:10,700 and it's not you go to heaven ceremony? 176 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:16,100 No, it's a book opening ceremony. 177 00:12:17,300 --> 00:12:20,800 It's a record of your life. Verse 37, for by you. 178 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,800 Words, you will be what Justified and by your words you 179 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,700 will be and we're talking about Believers. 180 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,500 Now ultimately, we know this is the case with the great white 181 00:12:32,500 --> 00:12:35,600 Throne judgment and the very last days, right? 182 00:12:35,700 --> 00:12:37,800 That there's going to be judgment sent out to those 183 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:39,900 who've never called on the name of the Lord. 184 00:12:40,100 --> 00:12:43,500 But Jesus himself, says, listen books are coming. 185 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:49,600 Books are coming and you're going to give an account for 186 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,300 every word, which tells us Jesus. 187 00:12:54,500 --> 00:12:59,700 Is Matt micromanaging. Everything about your life right 188 00:12:59,700 --> 00:13:04,700 now. How do we know this? 189 00:13:04,700 --> 00:13:08,000 Look at Hebrews chapter 4. Now, this should get you 190 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,000 excited. It shouldn't get you in pain or 191 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:15,000 worried or upset. I mean unless you doing stuff in 192 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,700 secret that you think since secret, which is just a lie, 193 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,200 because look what it says here in Hebrews 4:12, he stopped in 194 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,700 verse 12. But there's a verse 13 says, for 195 00:13:24,700 --> 00:13:27,800 the word of God, is what living and active sharper than any 196 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,400 two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of Soul and 197 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,000 Spirit of both joints and Marrow. 198 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,900 That's the threefold nature of man and able to judge the 199 00:13:35,900 --> 00:13:40,100 thoughts and intentions of the heart verse 13. 200 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,300 And there is no creature hidden from his sight. 201 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,700 But all things, how many things come on? 202 00:13:46,700 --> 00:13:49,700 How many things? All things are open and laid 203 00:13:49,700 --> 00:13:56,700 bare to the eyes of him with whom we have to do meaning 204 00:13:56,700 --> 00:14:01,200 there's nothing going on in the planet that he's not seeing from 205 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:05,700 a faith perspective. I'm like thank God that 206 00:14:05,700 --> 00:14:09,200 everything I'm doing for the Lord as not unnoticed. 207 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:13,200 It's not like I'll Stand before God one day and say he'll save 208 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:21,300 you know I Forgot you did that. See we understand God, forgets 209 00:14:21,300 --> 00:14:24,700 our sin. He throws it into the sea of 210 00:14:24,700 --> 00:14:27,300 forgetfulness. He removes our sin as far as the 211 00:14:27,300 --> 00:14:31,900 East is from the west, but he is recording everything. 212 00:14:31,900 --> 00:14:34,800 We're doing in faith, according to his word. 213 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:43,900 He's recording it all. And I'm so excited because 214 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,200 anything I'm doing when nobody else is watching. 215 00:14:48,900 --> 00:14:51,000 When no one gives me a thank you. 216 00:14:51,500 --> 00:14:55,100 Well, no, one even knows that I was intercede and stand and 217 00:14:55,100 --> 00:14:58,800 believe in going through the trial and tribulation because I 218 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:03,000 came out not with a gloomy face but with a face of Joy, when I 219 00:15:03,008 --> 00:15:05,700 was going through the worst trial of my life but everybody 220 00:15:05,700 --> 00:15:09,700 thought I was having the greatest time of my life, he saw 221 00:15:09,700 --> 00:15:13,200 it all. I said he saw it all and wants 222 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,400 so awesome. Is that his word is able to 223 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:21,200 judge my And so when we make this statement but God knows my 224 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:27,400 heart, you bet he does and he never gets it wrong. 225 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,900 Now you can lie to somebody about your intentions, but 226 00:15:30,900 --> 00:15:36,200 you'll never ever lie to whom you going to have to deal with 227 00:15:36,500 --> 00:15:41,500 about your intentions. Ever because he knows the 228 00:15:41,500 --> 00:15:49,700 intentions of your heart. God is a recorder because he's 229 00:15:49,700 --> 00:15:52,600 coming quickly and he has a reward for you. 230 00:15:53,300 --> 00:15:55,300 Aren't you glad I'm telling you right now? 231 00:15:55,400 --> 00:16:00,000 If I realized at this very moment that everything I was 232 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,800 doing was being recorded by God and if I could look at my life 233 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,300 in Christ, I say man I don't know that I'm really living for 234 00:16:06,300 --> 00:16:08,200 real. I don't know that he's recording 235 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:09,000 things. Good. 236 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,600 I mean, maybe I'm not living as I should. 237 00:16:12,700 --> 00:16:14,700 Well, you know what? I could repent. 238 00:16:14,700 --> 00:16:19,600 Ask God to forgive me. Get that written off my books so 239 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:23,800 that I could get something different on the books because I 240 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:27,000 don't want God on that day. When he stands before me, and 241 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,300 the fire comes, the Bible says, will be tested with fire. 242 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,300 And when the fire comes, he said, if we've got any works, 243 00:16:33,300 --> 00:16:36,000 that are wood, hay, and stubble, they'll be burned up, which 244 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,000 means I did it so that you could like me. 245 00:16:39,700 --> 00:16:42,700 And man, are we not living in a generation of wanting to get 246 00:16:42,700 --> 00:16:50,600 likes? So for every one, it says all I 247 00:16:50,608 --> 00:16:53,100 appreciate you. You're so awesome. 248 00:16:53,100 --> 00:16:55,500 I'm so thankful for you. There's nothing wrong with 249 00:16:55,500 --> 00:16:58,600 saying that and I'm not saying you shouldn't give people that, 250 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,300 but if the intent of why I do it is so that I can hear that. 251 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:06,300 Then the Lord is say you've got your reward on Earth. 252 00:17:06,300 --> 00:17:11,700 That's all you were trying to do get there like and did you get 253 00:17:11,700 --> 00:17:12,700 it? Did they tell you? 254 00:17:12,700 --> 00:17:14,099 They liked you did they tell you? 255 00:17:14,099 --> 00:17:16,599 They appreciated you. Did they tell you how awesome 256 00:17:16,599 --> 00:17:21,400 you were? You got it but it didn't 257 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,800 transfer. I said it didn't see. 258 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,400 We preach messages. You're not going to see. 259 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,500 U-Haul going to the funeral. Well, you won't see a physical 260 00:17:29,500 --> 00:17:31,900 U-Haul, but there is a spiritual U-Haul. 261 00:17:33,500 --> 00:17:37,500 I said there is a spiritual U-Haul of what you're doing in 262 00:17:37,500 --> 00:17:42,000 Christ today by faith, according to his word and the intentions 263 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:46,200 of your heart to glorify him. It will make it to your grave 264 00:17:46,300 --> 00:17:48,800 and out of your grave and out of judgment. 265 00:17:48,900 --> 00:17:51,900 You have cry where he'll pull out a book and say, look what 266 00:17:51,900 --> 00:17:57,700 came over from the natural. Not only did they see your 267 00:17:57,700 --> 00:18:01,600 effort and acknowledge your effort but it made it over into 268 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:06,000 eternity and it's now been tried as gold and silver and it is 269 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:10,600 still here in remains and I've got my reward and I'm giving you 270 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,100 a reward as a result of what you did. 271 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,000 Not only did you get it in the natural. 272 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:19,200 Now some of us we receive the reward from the which is just 273 00:18:19,300 --> 00:18:22,600 receiving something from someone, some rewards can be - 274 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:26,100 they can be persecuting us but all the while God Like I got 275 00:18:26,100 --> 00:18:31,100 silver and gold laid up for you. I have a Crown of Glory, a crown 276 00:18:31,100 --> 00:18:38,100 of righteousness for you because you withstood, they may not have 277 00:18:38,100 --> 00:18:40,900 acknowledged, but there are times, they will acknowledge. 278 00:18:40,900 --> 00:18:43,800 They will give Thanksgiving. They will tell you how much they 279 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,300 appreciate. All that you did in obedience to 280 00:18:46,300 --> 00:18:49,400 God, although they didn't realize that's your heart motive 281 00:18:50,100 --> 00:18:52,400 and that you're not asking them to thank you. 282 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,500 Although that effort as far as the world's concerned, some 283 00:18:55,500 --> 00:19:00,000 would be considered worthy of thanks but you've done it for a 284 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,900 higher purpose and man he sees it. 285 00:19:04,900 --> 00:19:09,000 Now let me tell you, there are things in the Bible that we read 286 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,800 and we think they're only a moment of time, but this is why 287 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:15,800 I encourage us to read the Bible cover-to-cover Genesis 1:1 to 288 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:20,700 Revelations, 22, 21, 20 to 21. The reason that is is because it 289 00:19:20,708 --> 00:19:25,200 gives context and God actually gives us a context. 290 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:31,700 Of the book of remembrance. In a particular natural Kingdom 291 00:19:31,700 --> 00:19:35,000 that was on the earth and you read about it in the Book of 292 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,800 Esther. Remember in the Book of Esther 293 00:19:38,900 --> 00:19:43,900 start in chapter 2 verse 23. It says this, then when the plot 294 00:19:43,900 --> 00:19:47,100 was investigated Mordecai, found out a couple guys wanted to kill 295 00:19:47,100 --> 00:19:52,600 the king who was Esther's husband, and when he found out 296 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,000 about this, he reported it says. And when the plot was 297 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:59,200 investigated and found it to be so that they were both hang on a 298 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:03,200 wooden gallo. And it was what written in the 299 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,700 book of Chronicles in the Kings present. 300 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,300 So, the King was there And rode it out. 301 00:20:10,100 --> 00:20:17,300 It was in the page. Well, Mordecai was the guy who 302 00:20:17,300 --> 00:20:23,000 discovered it and reported it and saved the King's life from 303 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:29,100 an attempted assassination. But the king didn't actually do 304 00:20:29,100 --> 00:20:34,400 anything about it at the time. All of a sudden Mordecai has an 305 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:38,400 enemy show up that hates him cause he won't bow down at him. 306 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:44,500 And so he's decided that he's gonna kill this guy now. 307 00:20:44,500 --> 00:20:48,200 What he doesn't know is not only is when he killed a guy and kill 308 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:53,800 all of his, you know, nation of people the Jewish people, he is 309 00:20:54,100 --> 00:20:56,200 hit, the queen has found out about it. 310 00:20:56,200 --> 00:21:00,600 She's in prayer and fasting. She goes to the king when not 311 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,700 called puts her own life on the line, for the nation, for an 312 00:21:03,700 --> 00:21:06,300 ancient. And because he extends a scepter 313 00:21:06,300 --> 00:21:10,000 and says come on, she throws a party for the Enemy. 314 00:21:11,100 --> 00:21:15,500 So, that the enemy of Mordecai. Her uncle could come with her 315 00:21:16,300 --> 00:21:19,200 husband, the king. Now, when he leaves that he's 316 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,800 like, I'm the only one that she embodied. 317 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,500 He's thinking, I got it, but he's so depressed. 318 00:21:24,500 --> 00:21:27,900 When he leaves that first party for and the invited to come the 319 00:21:27,900 --> 00:21:30,200 next day. Remember, is that because 320 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,300 Mordecai won't bow down? So they're like your built. 321 00:21:33,300 --> 00:21:38,100 This Gallo in your backyard. Go ahead and tomorrow request of 322 00:21:38,100 --> 00:21:41,000 the king too. To kill Mordecai on the galleys. 323 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:42,700 Like that's a great idea. I'm going to do it. 324 00:21:42,700 --> 00:21:45,900 Then I'll go to the party right? Because I'm the greatest guy 325 00:21:45,900 --> 00:21:48,500 ever. Well what does the Lord do? 326 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,700 The Lord causes the king to not to be able to sleep. 327 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:58,400 And we see in the sixth chapter of Esther verse 1. 328 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,400 It says during that night, the king could not sleep. 329 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:07,200 So he gave an order to bring the book of records the Chronicles 330 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,000 and they read it before the king. 331 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,100 And when they were reading it, when the king couldn't sleep, it 332 00:22:12,100 --> 00:22:15,400 came across a section in the book of remembrance. 333 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:20,700 It says, there's a guy by the name Immortal cob and man, he 334 00:22:20,700 --> 00:22:23,000 found out that there was an assassination on you. 335 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:27,000 We investigated it. It was so and we hung those guys 336 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,100 and the King says, what did we do for Mordecai? 337 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:33,400 What was his reward? And they're like King, you 338 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,800 didn't do anything. He says, well this can't be, we 339 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:40,400 must reward. He says, who's in the court. 340 00:22:40,700 --> 00:22:43,700 Oh Heyman has showed up. Now, Heyman has showed up to 341 00:22:43,700 --> 00:22:46,600 talk to the king and say I want you to give me more to kind 342 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:50,300 killing, but the King was so Sly. 343 00:22:50,300 --> 00:22:55,900 And Haman was so prideful that it just met together and sew and 344 00:22:55,900 --> 00:23:01,200 haman's pride and in the Kings real concern to reward. 345 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:05,600 Someone he says, what shall be done to the man who has honored 346 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,200 the king and what it Heyman think? 347 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,900 Is Honore more than me, which we know that's a lie. 348 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,000 Because he's not honored the king at all. 349 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:21,100 In fact, his asking of what would be done, reveals the heart 350 00:23:21,100 --> 00:23:24,700 of Haman because he's like, get a robe. 351 00:23:24,700 --> 00:23:30,200 That was on the king, get a donkey that the King has wrote 352 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:33,700 in essence, he saying, let that person out like, they're you, 353 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,900 that's haman's heart. I wish I was King. 354 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,700 I'll in fact, if Heyman would have kept a sending in power, 355 00:23:42,900 --> 00:23:45,600 Make no mistake about it. The Book of Esther would have 356 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,200 read this and Heyman, says, assassinated the king and took 357 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:55,400 the throne. But the king said, this is a 358 00:23:55,408 --> 00:23:58,400 great idea. Mordecai is the guy I want to 359 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,000 do. You're going to parade him 360 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,300 through the street and say these things. 361 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,900 And what does that tell us? It tells us it's New Testament 362 00:24:08,900 --> 00:24:11,900 that the weapon formed against the church won't Prosper. 363 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,100 That God will take what the devil meant for bad and turn it 364 00:24:15,100 --> 00:24:16,700 for good. Are you hearing me? 365 00:24:17,100 --> 00:24:24,500 Because God will remember all that you have done my mama. 366 00:24:25,500 --> 00:24:28,900 See Daniel says it this way, he said a river of fire was flowing 367 00:24:28,900 --> 00:24:34,200 and coming out from before him. Daniel Seven, Ten thousands upon 368 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,400 thousands worse, Having him and a myriad upon married were 369 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:41,000 standing before him and the court convened and the books 370 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:43,300 were opened. Look what it says in 371 00:24:43,300 --> 00:24:46,300 Revelations, 20. Now we know this way the end it 372 00:24:46,300 --> 00:24:48,600 says this and I saw the dead and that's a great white Throne 373 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:52,000 judgment the Great and the small standing Before the Throne and 374 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:57,100 the books were opened. So there are some books guys not 375 00:24:57,100 --> 00:25:00,500 only is there a book of remembrance but there's also the 376 00:25:00,500 --> 00:25:03,400 next one which says and another book was opened which is The 377 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,500 Book of Life. So we have to name Ames. 378 00:25:05,700 --> 00:25:09,000 We have the book of life, we have a book of remembrance but 379 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,700 then there's other books. Now, those books are the records 380 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,700 of every wrong done to the kingdom. 381 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:22,200 That if the blood of Jesus, If that name has not been 382 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:26,600 transferred into the book of life, then all of those books 383 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:32,800 are legal binding charges of which a righteous judge will 384 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:39,000 sentence. Those created beings humans into 385 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:46,200 Eternal damnation forever and it be rightly judged. and it says 386 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:48,700 in the dead were judged from the things which were written in the 387 00:25:48,700 --> 00:25:55,800 books according Today, their deeds, we live in a time where 388 00:25:55,800 --> 00:26:00,400 God wants to reward us and he's coming to give us a reward 389 00:26:00,500 --> 00:26:03,500 because there's a book of remembrance everything you're 390 00:26:03,500 --> 00:26:05,600 doing right now. God's writing it down, 391 00:26:06,100 --> 00:26:09,200 everything you're doing, God knows whether you're in his will 392 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:10,500 or not. Let's look at this. 393 00:26:10,500 --> 00:26:16,500 God wants to reward you according to your Works in 394 00:26:16,500 --> 00:26:18,900 Christ. Meaning your faith in doing 395 00:26:18,900 --> 00:26:21,500 God's will for your life now that you're a child of God. 396 00:26:22,100 --> 00:26:26,700 Romans Chapter 2 Verse 6 says, who will render to each person? 397 00:26:27,100 --> 00:26:28,700 Notice, you're not going to get skipped. 398 00:26:28,700 --> 00:26:30,600 Nobody in this room. Nobody on planet. 399 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,300 Earth is getting skipped. Each person is going to be 400 00:26:33,300 --> 00:26:38,900 rendered a reward according to his deeds, every one of us, look 401 00:26:38,900 --> 00:26:42,700 what it says in Proverbs 2412 again a little insight on how 402 00:26:42,700 --> 00:26:45,900 God is able to reward you through his book of remembrance. 403 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:51,700 If you say see, we do not know this, does he not consider Do 404 00:26:51,900 --> 00:26:55,800 it, who weighs the heart. One translation says this says, 405 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:57,600 look, we didn't know about dressing and Essence. 406 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:02,800 We're trying to play ignorant like I didn't know, well sambo, 407 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:07,200 I mean II didn't know, I had to do that, look what he goes on. 408 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,900 And says, does he not consider who weighs the heart? 409 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:15,000 He knows whether you just can't go to God and play ignorant. 410 00:27:20,300 --> 00:27:25,600 And does he not know and does he not know it who keeps your soul? 411 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:31,800 And he will not rent and will he not render to each man? 412 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:36,400 According to his work meaning that day we stand he'll know you 413 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:41,200 inside and out he will have documentation. 414 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,900 Of it all. Now, this is good for the 415 00:27:46,900 --> 00:27:52,100 righteous when our hearts are pure and our minds are pure and 416 00:27:52,100 --> 00:27:54,400 we just want to seek God with all the heart. 417 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:58,700 I'm like, wow there's a reward. I mean I will not be cheated out 418 00:27:58,700 --> 00:28:01,300 of my reward. There will not be an injustice, 419 00:28:01,300 --> 00:28:06,100 that will not come to Justice. My gosh, my king is so great, 420 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,600 but it also tells me don't think you're going to dupe the king. 421 00:28:11,500 --> 00:28:14,600 Oh, don't think that he This stuff down here, don't really 422 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,400 matter. All that matters is that you 423 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,100 asked Jesus to come into your heart, so that when you die, you 424 00:28:20,100 --> 00:28:21,600 go to heaven, that's all that matters. 425 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:27,600 No, that ain't all that matters. No, in essence, what you do is 426 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,300 you deprive your king, the pleasure. 427 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,000 Why would we as kids? And we have we been around our 428 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:38,700 own children and you want to reward them and they deprive you 429 00:28:38,700 --> 00:28:44,300 the pleasure. When they disobey you're like, 430 00:28:44,700 --> 00:28:47,400 well I can't reward your disobedience. 431 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,800 I'm the one that's not keeping you from this event, or from 432 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:55,700 having this or doing that. Look what you did, you've 433 00:28:55,700 --> 00:29:03,400 deprived me the pleasure. And let me tell you you training 434 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,600 your kids wrong, if you reward them for their disobedience. 435 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:11,900 Because the Lord is not going to do that. 436 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:19,500 The Lord is rewarding us for our obedience to his word and 437 00:29:19,500 --> 00:29:22,800 keeping it by faith. So he's going to judge us. 438 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,900 Look what it says here in Jeremiah 1710. 439 00:29:25,900 --> 00:29:29,100 This is the Amplified classic. It says this, the Lord search. 440 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,500 He said I the Lord search the mind. 441 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,900 I try the heart even to give to every man, according to his ways 442 00:29:35,900 --> 00:29:38,400 according to the fruit of his doing. 443 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:40,800 I mean this is what I love about my king so much. 444 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,000 That's what I love about my savior. 445 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:47,700 Jesus is that This the king, the righteous one and the spirit of 446 00:29:47,700 --> 00:29:51,500 God, that's within me and moves around, on the planet is going 447 00:29:51,500 --> 00:29:55,900 into my innermost being my heart, my thinking, my soul 448 00:29:55,900 --> 00:30:01,200 round and is judging every part of my motive, why I do what I do 449 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:04,400 when I do what I do for what purpose that I do it. 450 00:30:06,300 --> 00:30:08,800 And when they say, man, they're doing it for me. 451 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:12,300 They're writing it down and they're like not only will they 452 00:30:12,300 --> 00:30:16,400 reap a benefit now because our faith can pull things in today 453 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:20,000 and we can walk in the blessings of God now, but it also will 454 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:25,700 then carry over Into eternity to wear. 455 00:30:25,700 --> 00:30:28,900 When the king comes and begins to hand out rewards. 456 00:30:28,900 --> 00:30:32,900 He says because you did it this way while you were here 457 00:30:33,500 --> 00:30:37,000 naturally. Separated from me, where we 458 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:38,800 didn't look at each other face-to-face. 459 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:44,500 But by my spirit, you did my bidding, you obeyed my word, 460 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,400 here's your reward. Make no mistake about it. 461 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,300 God is not a respecter of person. 462 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:52,000 What that means is is God, doesn't respect. 463 00:30:52,100 --> 00:30:54,900 One of us more than the other but he will reward us 464 00:30:54,900 --> 00:30:59,400 differently. Everyone of us has the ability 465 00:30:59,500 --> 00:31:06,300 to believe God to live righteous to live, holy to live Sanctified 466 00:31:06,300 --> 00:31:10,500 to live with a pure motive to live selflessly to live in the 467 00:31:10,500 --> 00:31:17,900 love of God to believe God, nobody can hinder that But if 468 00:31:17,900 --> 00:31:21,300 you're not doing that, make no mistake, the rewards will not be 469 00:31:21,300 --> 00:31:25,600 the same. On that day, when he publicly 470 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,600 announces us and declares that we are his special ones. 471 00:31:30,900 --> 00:31:34,000 What we've done here, are either going to burn up and be gone 472 00:31:34,900 --> 00:31:39,200 because that's all we got. Or we're going to have something 473 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:43,200 that carries over into eternity, where the crown of 474 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:47,800 righteousness, Crown of Glory, things are fashion for us, 475 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:49,300 because we are the King of Kings. 476 00:31:49,300 --> 00:31:55,700 We are a king of the king. We will cast our crowns before 477 00:31:55,700 --> 00:31:58,000 the Lord. But just because you cast your 478 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,400 crowned up me, he collects it, you never get to wear it. 479 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,500 We acknowledge that. Yes, you're the great king. 480 00:32:05,500 --> 00:32:08,200 I mean at the end of the day, you're the ruler of everything 481 00:32:08,300 --> 00:32:12,600 but he's also says that's right. And I calls you to rule and for 482 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:14,600 you to Reign and I'm the king of kings. 483 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,500 So when you cast a crown before the Lord, it's not because 484 00:32:17,500 --> 00:32:23,900 you're releasing your kingship. Are you hearing me? 485 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,800 The last scripture today is Psalm 62 12. 486 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:32,100 I hope I'm encouraging to today that man, we have a God that 487 00:32:32,100 --> 00:32:36,700 doesn't forget a God. That remembers what I'm saying 488 00:32:36,700 --> 00:32:40,200 is, is you should never take the thought, you know, living for 489 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:41,700 God. What's the big deal? 490 00:32:42,700 --> 00:32:45,500 It's a big deal. You know, how many people right 491 00:32:45,500 --> 00:32:51,200 now, naturally, or putting money away and 401, K's in some type 492 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,100 of retirement? They're doing why? 493 00:32:53,100 --> 00:32:56,000 Cuz when they finally quit working, they can retire. 494 00:32:56,200 --> 00:33:00,500 And receive a reward, they put it into stocks, they do 495 00:33:00,500 --> 00:33:06,800 Investments for what a reward so that they have more than what 496 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:10,500 they currently have. So they have a sustainable, not 497 00:33:10,500 --> 00:33:17,700 just sustainable but a better life In fact, we act like people 498 00:33:17,700 --> 00:33:21,300 are foolish if they're not thinking about their retirement 499 00:33:22,100 --> 00:33:25,400 yet. Many Believers have no context 500 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:31,300 of the book of remembrance They all think through wishful 501 00:33:31,300 --> 00:33:34,800 thinking and fantasy that all of a sudden we're going to be out 502 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:37,800 of our bodies be up in heaven. We're all going to have the 503 00:33:37,808 --> 00:33:41,700 exact same house like God is going to have cooker Cuddy, cut 504 00:33:41,700 --> 00:33:44,400 her homes. Like some of these neighborhoods 505 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,100 we going to, you know, I'm saying, one style. 506 00:33:46,100 --> 00:33:48,000 They just kind of move the windows around. 507 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,400 Right. There's only about three models 508 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,500 and because God is not a respecter of person, he's gonna 509 00:33:57,500 --> 00:34:00,500 have one model where I and we're all going to be satisfied with 510 00:34:00,500 --> 00:34:02,400 this. He's too creative to have the 511 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,900 same thing. It's just not going to happen. 512 00:34:06,100 --> 00:34:08,300 No. He's going to reward us 513 00:34:08,300 --> 00:34:15,800 according to our faithfulness. Because we love him so much and 514 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:17,900 because we, he's like you listen. 515 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:22,199 The king is like you can't out, give me, you cannot do it. 516 00:34:22,300 --> 00:34:25,100 I mean, the more you continue to lay down your life to do, my 517 00:34:25,100 --> 00:34:28,699 will for your life, in this natural now, man. 518 00:34:28,699 --> 00:34:36,300 It has great dividends. In the life to come and guys we 519 00:34:36,300 --> 00:34:39,199 still have to go through a millennial reign of Christ here. 520 00:34:40,500 --> 00:34:44,100 How does God determine who judges the cities? 521 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:49,900 What is preordained? It can be preordained by the 522 00:34:49,900 --> 00:34:54,199 fact of, he knows who's going to do the work necessary to get the 523 00:34:54,199 --> 00:34:57,000 assignment. Not because whether you did it 524 00:34:57,007 --> 00:34:58,500 work, or not, it doesn't matter. You're going. 525 00:34:58,500 --> 00:35:02,100 See people take predestination as if I don't have time, I 526 00:35:02,108 --> 00:35:03,800 didn't do nothing. I mean, I laid around. 527 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,200 I was lazy. I just, you know, set around. 528 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:08,200 I asked you to come to my heart when I was just a little kid, 529 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:09,900 but I never lived for my live for the world, you know? 530 00:35:09,900 --> 00:35:14,000 But I lied, I went to heaven and he gave me 15 cities, you cannot 531 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:16,200 find that scripture that It's not true. 532 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:21,400 Grace. Empowered us to live a life of 533 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:23,600 Faith.

How much more our heavenly 567 00:37:28,900 --> 00:37:32,000 father Psalm 62, 12 says, also To You. 568 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:38,800 O, Lord, belonging mercy and loving-kindness for you render 569 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:42,500 to every man according to his work. 570 00:37:42,500 --> 00:37:47,500 I'm so glad that he's merciful that he has loving kindness, 571 00:37:47,900 --> 00:37:53,100 that he is taking time, he has in his Heaven realm, those, not 572 00:37:53,100 --> 00:37:56,700 himself, but those who are ever right? 573 00:37:58,100 --> 00:38:02,200 Trevor and he's got your name. Trevor stand up to everybody 574 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,000 knows who I'm talking about the way. 575 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,400 I'm not talking behind his back. I'm talking to his face Trevor. 576 00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:11,000 This is how he treated his wife and why he did that. 577 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,400 This is how he treated his coworker and why he did that. 578 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,700 This is how he gave in the offering. 579 00:38:15,700 --> 00:38:17,600 This is how he's recording at all. 580 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:21,200 Everything every bit of it, Trevor. 581 00:38:22,300 --> 00:38:24,800 Was so full of the flesh this day. 582 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:32,300 But he didn't yield instead, he crucified it. 583 00:38:34,300 --> 00:38:39,600 There's a reward for that. Not an action. 584 00:38:39,700 --> 00:38:42,900 Nothing. Do I believe that he said, 585 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:48,300 Trevor was full of the Flesh and acted on it today, but then all 586 00:38:48,300 --> 00:38:51,300 of a sudden when we got up there you can't find that one. 587 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,700 Why? Because Trevor repented the next 588 00:38:53,700 --> 00:38:57,400 day or five hours later and the blood came in and wrote that one 589 00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:01,400 out. Come on. 590 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:06,900 Are you hearing me? But there are those, you know 591 00:39:06,900 --> 00:39:10,000 again he did it for his own, Merit did it for his own. 592 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:13,700 Merit did it for his own Merit. When the fire comes, it burns 593 00:39:13,700 --> 00:39:15,800 up. I'm just using one, I could pick 594 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:20,000 out anybody's name right here. Your name. 595 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:24,600 You have a book. Every person. 596 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:30,900 Ever Birth has a book. It's an autobiography. 597 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:37,000 And you're not writing it angels are riding on your behalf in 598 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,500 heaven. God before you ever came into 599 00:39:39,500 --> 00:39:42,200 your mother's womb, the psalmist says before. 600 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,600 It one day of my life, was you already wrote out all the days 601 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,100 of my life. He has a printed copy of what 602 00:39:48,100 --> 00:39:51,400 your life should be. But the angels are recording 603 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:55,300 your life. As it is, And God is going to 604 00:39:55,300 --> 00:39:58,800 match those books up. Then he'll pull out the book of 605 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:03,500 remembrance that in, it's going to even have tears in a bottle 606 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:07,200 of your troubles and trials. And when you cried out to God 607 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:10,800 and stayed in faith and believed him to vindicate you and you 608 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,300 didn't defend yourself. You said. 609 00:40:13,300 --> 00:40:14,900 Vengeance is mine. Thus saith the Lord. 610 00:40:14,900 --> 00:40:17,400 I will repay. I'm not going to defend myself. 611 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:19,900 That doesn't mean they're in times. 612 00:40:19,900 --> 00:40:22,300 You have to say things. Paul said, well if we don't 613 00:40:22,300 --> 00:40:24,000 boast In the Flesh, I'm gonna go ahead and go there. 614 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,600 I mean, if that's what you're looking for, if you want a job 615 00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:31,600 description of how much I've laid out, I've laid out way more 616 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:36,900 than half the people you trying to call apostles I mean if you 617 00:40:36,900 --> 00:40:39,300 want to go there, I'll give you my resume. 618 00:40:40,300 --> 00:40:43,900 I've been in Trials, more often.

I'm not talking about it. 628 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:19,100 God will vindicate me? He'll do it. 629 00:41:19,100 --> 00:41:21,200 I'll leave room for the Lord to show. 630 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:22,100 Mike it.
