Transcript:

[00:02] Sabbath peace hush boy it's time to go goodness gracious [00:09] seven peace it's another opportunity for us to come together in here and learn that the word [00:15] of Truth has given to us by the most high God all honor goes to the father through the son whose name is yahushua in him lies [00:23] the only hope for salvation we know that it is obtained by grace through faith not of Works lest anyone should boast [00:29] and given freely as a gift to all who obey him we understand that if you do not obey him it is made manifest or made [00:36] obvious that you do not believe in this state you should expect no good thing from the most high however [00:42] anything that you do get whether it be a gift of tongues a gift of Prophecy or [00:48] any Supernatural experience that you may have it can and it will be used against you in the day of judgment with that [00:54] said piece of the saints that are in the room to the Saints they couldn't make it but no peace to the Wicked the only thing we [01:01] say to them is repent that they my might live [01:10] last week uh none of y'all was here huh okay what we got [01:17] what we got one what we got you can't remember nothing from last [01:23] week there y'all y'all should have been but [01:29] what we got you don't remember nothing from last [01:35] week oh my goodness gracious you can't buy good help who in the chat [01:41] let me see what we got from last week all right sister Rue [01:47] you know what I'm saying this is ruse Hallelujah you know what I'm saying though [01:55] what we got [02:03] what king were we talking about [02:08] was it jeroboam [02:15] well y'all remember the man of God [02:20] remember the man of God came he told jeroboam yo you know what I'm saying [02:26] such and such is gonna happen to the altar the Airborne stuck out his hand [02:32] his hand got stuck the way it was got dried up he has man of God to pray for [02:37] him pray for him his hand went back to normal man of God or he asked the man the guy he's alive for sure look why don't you [02:43] come with me man the guy was like no I can't go with you man I got bumped into a prophet Prophet [02:49] is like hey why don't you come with me get some drink and some water I mean some bread and some water probably man a [02:55] guy was like nah I can't do that the prophet lied to him was like no I just heard from God and God told me he wants [03:00] you to come with me right so the man of God went with him directly disobeying the word that the [03:05] most Our God gave to the man of God and then the most I got gave a word to [03:11] the prophet and told the prophet tell the man of God that because he didn't listen to me his body will not make it [03:18] back to the gravesite of his family right and after that he is riding on a [03:24] donkey and a lion jumped out and what do lions do when they see [03:30] something that might look a little you know what I'm saying like a predator I mean look like something they should [03:36] they should they should prey on what would a lion dog do huh they hunted [03:42] right and after you get done hunting something what you do after that you eat it right what do you think they [03:48] did to the man of God [03:53] you're right you look you see a donkey and you see a man riding it right [03:58] naturally what is the lion gonna do it might eat the Donkey might eat both [04:05] of them right guess what this lion did [04:10] left the Donkey and left the man too didn't eat either [04:16] one of them but he did do though is he tore the man in he tore him right into [04:21] another where he killed the man right ripped him up with his claws or something but he didn't eat them and [04:27] then the donkey was standing right there and he never messed with the donkey then the lion stood right there by the dead [04:33] body and by the live donkey and just stood there right and what that's intended to do is [04:39] to show you that the most high god did this thing because if it was a if it was a regular situation lion would have ate [04:45] everything that it was hungry to eat or you know what I'm saying it would have left everything alone but in it wouldn't [04:51] have just stayed there and just let this this donkey just sit there but not his life stayed there right so [04:57] then the people went and they got them the profit you know I'm saying in his family they got them they buried the the [05:03] man of God right but he didn't bury him and hit in the man of God's family's uh gravesite they buried him somewhere else [05:09] and then the prophet was like surely everything that that man and God said is going to come to pass so the reason why [05:15] I love this story and the reason why it's so important to understand it is it goes back to what we say in the [05:21] beginning we say any gift that you might have whether it be a gift of tongues or [05:27] a gift of Prophecy right it will be used against you in the day of judgment [05:34] so the reason that we say that is because just because the most high God give you prophecy or just because he [05:40] give you tongues or give you some other some other spiritual gift you can't rely [05:45] on that for your salvation it is very important that we understand that salvation [05:51] comes by the word that's it and I'll say give me uh give me Romans [05:57] chapter you know what I'm saying because it might be some Christians in it you know what I mean how many Christians we got in the chat room right now [06:02] you know then we might have a Christian in there so you sometimes you gotta you know what I'm saying you ever like Drake [06:09] and Drake got a show oh it's a great Drake ain't cool huh ain't very cool [06:16] he not cool yeah I know yeah all right you know what I'm saying [06:22] Drake got a show who y'all like then Lil Uzi vert [06:28] yeah who the guy right now [06:35] you better believe me yeah I mean oh my goodness gracious who the guy right now young boy for you too I don't really [06:42] that's right you got you got good music there you don't listen to this nonsense Lil Wayne [06:49] how does he know about those people anyway two it's hard [06:55] how does he know about Lil Wayne and Jeezy Jeezy here say Gigi he said Jay-Z oh Jay Z you know what I'm saying you know what [07:01] daddy is so listen you take Drake and Drake can do singing [07:08] all them rappers he can do all those different things right so when he have a show [07:14] and he do a concert you think it's gonna be all rap no sometimes he gotta cater to the to [07:21] the people who like rap he gotta cater sometimes to the people who like singing you know what I'm saying so sometimes we [07:28] gotta cater to the Christians you know but sometimes Christians out there we got to make sure that we cater to them [07:33] and you know what Christians like they like some news you Christians don't want to hear about no darn darn boa [07:40] Christian gonna do it yeah did jeroboam die on the cross that's what Crystal look did jeremony die on the cross yes [07:46] or no no dear boy though okay uh Chris don't want to hear that stuff sometimes we got to get a Christian what they want [07:51] to hear so let's go to Romans chapter 10 give me verse 17. [08:04] [Applause] [08:11] this is Romans chapter 10 verse 17 so then faith comes by hearing so faith [08:17] comes right here listen when we talking about the faith of the most high God the book is telling you if you're gonna get [08:23] Faith from the most high God it's gonna come because you heard something watch this so faith comes by hearing and hearing by [08:30] the word of God in the hearing by the word of God so ultimately where does faith come from the word [08:36] you can't be saved without faith so salvation comes by the word that's it [08:42] right the word is what gives us salvation salvation [08:48] so if you are not walking orderly according to the word that you hear [08:54] this word that we've been given then it's nonsense I don't care if you a [09:00] prophet I don't care if you if the most high God give you his word but you don't listen to it [09:06] that's it so this shows that when we read about the man of God this shows [09:11] that the man of God although he was given the direct word of God he did a [09:17] miracle in the fact that jeroboam put his arm out there and it whole arm Falls up [09:22] right ain't nobody ever seen no mess like that that really happened and if [09:28] the power of God is working through this man he turned around most of our God said I'm gonna let a lion kill you [09:33] because you didn't just you disobeyed me you have to understand that all these we tend to look for signs and look for [09:40] wonders because that's the type of people we are but you have to understand at the end of the day the true Measure of a Man grab [09:48] uh grab Ecclesiastes for me give me give me Ecclesiastes give me uh 12 and give [09:54] me what verse 12. that's the last verse of 12 I think well I need to build up to it a little [10:00] bit give me about verse 12. the last verse should be what 15. no I [10:07] think it's 12. the last version oh [10:13] I don't think that chapter too long I think it's kind of short [10:21] it's important for us to understand what the what the true objective is you get you get kind of sidetracked because a [10:28] lot of stuff going on in this world and we kind of get caught up in this world like how many people want to be happy [10:35] right that's that's something that we can experience in this world we want to be happy [10:40] what happened when you sad though is that the end of the world [10:46] no emotion is just like this when's the last time you were sad [10:53] when's the last time you said [10:59] been a while huh yeah three hours ago when was the last time you were sad [11:09] you'd be sad it happened and then guess what happens after that oh [11:15] [Laughter] you be sad and then you'd be happy again [11:20] and then you sad and then you get mad then you'd be sorrowful and then you'd be happy again and it's just like this [11:25] that's all it is just like this just like this because all that is this world this whole book Ecclesiastes it talks [11:32] about how everything is meaningless it's vanity it's meaningless you know why it's saying that [11:38] because it's like you'd be happy and then you'd be sad it'd be happy it's like what's the point [11:43] all this stuff ain't got no point what's the point right so he spent 12 chapters talking about [11:50] Cycles right how it could be this way and it could be that way and how sometimes this is like this and [11:56] sometimes that's like this this will change my life and at the end of it he come to this conclusion this is uh [12:02] Ecclesiastes chapter 12 verse 12. [12:07] what's the last chapter I mean last verse 14 14 okay verse nine and moreover [12:13] because the preacher was wise CJ look moreover because the preacher was wise [12:19] he did what he still he taught the people now people still [12:25] right he had to keep teaching the people it's important to understand that he [12:31] said moreover because the preacher was wise he had to keep teaching the people [12:40] being a teacher being a being a leader that comes out of a need it ain't [12:46] because you did well you know what there's a lot of people that go into leadership and going into teaching and all this stuff she'll be like you know I [12:52] just want to be a leader I want to be great I want people to see me oh man I still got to come from a [12:59] knee you see people need this and I happen to I have a gift that the [13:05] most high God has given me that he never gave it for me move my guy they never gonna give us [13:12] anything for us it's always going to be for other people and the sooner y'all all realize that or the most high die to [13:19] take care of you you realize anything that I got anything that I can do that's good right that [13:25] serves a purpose according to the most I got that is for other people right so when he look at it because the [13:32] preacher was wise right he's talking about himself so the preacher why what did he ask for [13:40] when he prayed y'all remember Solomon's Prayer this is Solomon by the way [13:45] wisdom and understanding so wisdom and understanding because the preacher was wise [13:52] still he talked to people knowledge keep going watch this yeah he gave good heat and sought out [13:58] and said in order many Proverbs right he gave good heed in other words he gave good warnings good teachings good made [14:05] people thoughtful about things that could happen and then he start out in other words he had to go research like [14:10] scientists he had to go find answers because he didn't have all the answers he's like you know what let me go learn [14:16] about that and I'll come back to you so he had to seek things out and then he had to set many things in order this is [14:22] what he taught this whole book he's trying to explain to you this worked like that this worked like that some people like this because this is all of [14:28] his research right and he set everything in order in other words he made it make sense for people you know what I'm [14:34] saying you might go you know I'm saying you might go you might go to the phone [14:40] you might go to the farm right and if you go to the farm you're not [14:46] gonna know when you walk on there what to do what should come first what should come next which animals to you know I'm [14:52] saying to couple with the other animal you're not gonna know anything but then a farmer who's been doing this for a while might put it all in order [14:58] for you like no no look son first thing you want to do is you want to start with the chickens early in the morning they [15:04] wake up first you know they do the chicken then you go over here to the hall then you do this he put it in order [15:10] for you to make it make sense right so that's what that's what King Solomon was doing in this book let's [15:15] keep going the preacher sought to find out acceptable words and that which was written was upright so even words of [15:22] truth that's right well look the preacher was looking for hmm what's the right answer acceptable words you're [15:28] talking about look y'all ask me a question I had to go seek these things out and put them in order now I have to [15:35] find the right answer to give you I have to find acceptable words to give you and [15:40] then I learned man listen that which was written in other words the law [15:48] you can't get no better now watch what you say that which was written was upright even [15:53] words of truth the words of the wise are as Golds and As Nails fastened by the [15:59] masters of assemblies right listen to what that is what is it y'all know what a gold is [16:05] what is it gold a gold [16:13] not gold not with the l gold [16:18] a gold think of it kind of like a little spear kind of you know what I'm saying [16:23] like it's a strong stick with a little little you know I'm saying sharp sharp little piece at the end and what you [16:30] would use a gold for is you would take a large animal like a cow or ox or something and you'll poke it [16:37] right and you're poking with this long stick and what you think gonna happen when you poke that Ox with the long stick it's gonna move because like oh [16:44] leave me alone you know there's our moving to the to whatever Direction so sometimes you can't really push no ah [16:50] you can walk into an octave putting that thing on bus you know then you run into them people do this [17:00] these people are sicko yo I used to wear yeah they want to they want to go and [17:06] knock over cows y'all think it's hard for the cows to get up yeah but you know [17:11] what I'm saying for the most part for the most part the reason why that's a thing is because it's very [17:16] to move them you know what I'm saying so you woke up like one of us are walking through a calendar try to push it that [17:21] thing ain't gonna Buzz that ain't gonna look at you like oh you know that movie out the way right so you would have a [17:27] goal and with the gold you could poke it and that'll make it kind of move in whatever Direction you want so you could [17:32] control it so I'm trying to get you back in behind your fence I'll poke you with the gold until you get back behind your [17:37] fence right it ain't to hurt it and to kill it it just try to you know give a little incentive to kind of keep moving [17:43] right so it's saying the words of the wise are like gold and what [17:50] it Nails fastened by the masters of assemblies which are given from one Shepherd it's like being poked with a [17:58] gold or with nails you have to understand that reference when wise [18:04] people are talking it's not gonna feel good right when people are telling you wise [18:09] things it's not gonna be like oh you know what that made me just feel great it's gonna be a challenge for you it's [18:16] going to be poking you to go in a direction that you didn't originally want to go it's gonna be annoying it's going to [18:23] feel like somebody judging you it's gonna feel like you expose it's gonna feel like oh he just always want to [18:29] control me or she just always want me to do it her way that's how it feels when somebody wise is talking to you when you [18:37] hear wise words right A lot of times we go with what feels good remember a [18:42] couple weeks ago when we was talking we were talking about real born and rehoboam aspirate reborn was the son [18:48] of Solomon and rehoboam asked for advice from the counselors that Solomon had and [18:53] when he asked for that advice he is like how should I answer the the the the uh Northern tribes right Israel is coming [18:59] to me and they say that we working them too hard he said your father worked me too hard you know what I'm saying he [19:05] said I answer them the wise counselor came back to us like listen you answer them nicely today they [19:12] serve you forever these boys will serve you forever you ask them nicely but him as the king he [19:19] had a different mindset he looking at it like these boys ain't working hard [19:24] you know what I'm saying why people it kind of got it easy he may not have believed that they had [19:30] it as bad as they thought they had it so with his mind that's not the direction he wanted to go the words of [19:37] the wives were like goals but you know what he resisted against the golds right he resisted against them posts [19:44] like no I'm not gonna do it I don't want to go that direction and sometimes you get a cow that do that or you get a bull [19:50] you know I'm saying you poking me you know what he gonna do he gonna charge at your butt right instead of going the other [19:56] direction that you want him to go he gonna run right at you he gonna try to he's gonna try to hurt you and get you out of his way and that's what we do is [20:02] people in our life that love us people in our life that's trying to get us to do the right thing try to get us to look [20:08] at things right but because we so dead set on doing what we want to do what happens is we attack the person trying [20:15] to help us just like the bull would right you poke the ball what do you think the bull gonna do all right I'm [20:21] gonna go no boy I'm about to knock your butt off you try to poke me again that's what we do we attack the people that's [20:26] trying to help us go in the right direction that's what happened so you look at it he's telling you it's a wise [20:31] man talking to us right now he's saying the wise words are like gold keep going [20:36] whatever and nail As Nails fastened by the masters of assemblies which are given [20:42] from one Shepherd and further by these my son be admonished he said further by [20:48] these by son be admonished right here's how I name my boy right here his word is word admonish and Hebrew is zahar right [20:56] so this is when you look at that he's saying B his name means warning right admonish that means warning right so [21:03] he's saying Listen by these my son be warned the stuff I'm telling you be [21:09] warned about it be thinking about it because this don't happen right watch this of making many books there is no [21:15] end he said look anybody can go out there and make darn books that's why you see all these darn Christian darn book [21:22] goodness gracious a purpose-driven life you know what I'm saying the uh what's [21:28] the other one what's the TD Jakes book uh I forget [21:35] really but you know what I'm saying you got all these Christian books they're trying to tell you about another book [21:41] that's telling you about salvation or telling you about how to live your life Hebrew books and all of that you got all [21:46] these Hebrews and write these books write these blogs and write all this stuff and there's a lot of information [21:52] matter of fact the average Hebrew you talk to they ain't even trying to listen to you about no scripture [21:57] because it's a pride fight for them right it's not it's not really about it's not really about learning what the [22:03] most high God has it's a pride fight it's about who knows the most who read the book who can assert the [22:10] most dominance so now okay yeah you know the scripture pretty well but [22:16] have you read the book or toe bit the Apocrypha have you read the the [22:21] Apocrypha all right what about the book of jasher though what about the Book of Enoch [22:28] oh you read the books that they kept out of the New Testament right all these different things that they try to get into and it's like well [22:35] actually yes I've read a lot of that stuff Yes actually but what we talking about we talking about the scripture right now [22:42] well you know that would have been scripture okay for sure he does this is what he's trying to pre-warn it he's warning Us in lebanes no he said be [22:49] admonish them that word admonish means warned right be warned that are making many books there's no [22:57] end there's always gonna be books right but what happened and much study [23:02] is a weariness of the flesh you get to study and the studying and studying that's a weariness of the flesh keep [23:09] going let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter so after everything is said and done [23:15] what is the duty of man the purpose of man right foreign [28:35] foreign [Music] [29:00] [Music] [29:06] downstairs so that's the whole duty of the matter right that we have to keep the Commandments and we have to fear God [29:12] these people don't teach us that they teach us to chase our own desires they teach us to get rich they teach us to do [29:19] all these things but they don't teach us how to love God they don't teach us how to keep the Commandments you're never [29:25] going to hear that you're never going to hear you're never gonna hear a Christian come up to you and talk about hey it's really important to keep the [29:30] Commandments you know what they're gonna do they gonna make their claim telling you how much Works don't matter that God [29:36] don't care about works and you can't earn your way you can't earn your way into like what are y'all even talk where [29:42] do you all get this language from who's talking to y'all about earning something all right you bring that up as soon as [29:48] you get to talking about man we really got to do what God say you know you can't earn your wish shut up like what [29:54] are you talking about nobody's even yelling but they do that because that's a gold [29:59] talk every time every time somebody talk about the Commandment it's a gold poking them so they attack it no you can't earn [30:06] your way it's not about Works Paul said not by works I mean you don't even know what you talk [30:11] about you don't understand Paul you don't understand nothing to eat writing right so that's what we try to do we try [30:16] to come here we try to understand we can understand the New Testament if we understand the Old Testament we're going [30:22] to understand in the Old Testament if we understand the law and we don't understand the law if we serve the most our God [30:28] period based off of that Foundation can't nobody lie to us [30:34] you can't just say anything to us because we know it we know the foundation you can't tell me you can't [30:40] tell me something that God believe or God gonna do or something about the character of God that's not consistent [30:46] with his entire book we're familiar with it we go through it from front to back year after year after [30:53] year we reading through this thing in order going through it five six times we didn't did this [31:00] right because it is important to understand this is what the book is [31:06] saying you can't mess that up if you understand it can nobody just come in and be like oh no God loves everybody no [31:12] that thing gonna ring off all types of alarms in your brain like now it sounds great but that's not quite like the man is a [31:19] little more serious than what she's ranking them out to be right Let's uh let's go and pick up where we [31:25] left off we left off at what uh First Kings well first Kings 15. [31:30] First Kings 15 before we go there let's go do uh let's go to First Chronicles 12 maybe [31:38] did we already read first Chronicles 12. so we read second chronicles 11. oh my [31:45] bad second chronicles 12. let's go to uh Second Chronicles 12 verse one [31:50] and then we'll go back to first king 15. [32:03] and it came to pass when real boom had established the kingdom and that strengthened himself he forsooked the [32:09] law yahuwah in in all Israel with him mm-hmm [32:15] and it came to pass that in the fifth year of King rehoboam shisha king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem because [32:20] they had transgressed against yahuwah when the 1200 chariots and 60 000 [32:26] Horsemen and the people were without number that came with him out of Egypt the Lou bims the sukims and the [32:32] Ethiopians and he took the fence cities which pertained to Judah and came to Jerusalem [32:38] then came shamaya the prophet to rehoboam into the [32:43] princess of Judah that were gathered together to Jerusalem because of shishach and said unto them thus says [32:48] yahuwah right so now remember reborn was acting up all right he kind of doing whatever he [32:54] wanted to do not as bad as jeroboam but he kind of doing whatever he wanted to do too out in Judah remember Dearborn [33:00] was in the northern northern tribes but realborn was in the South he kind of doing whatever he wanted to do too so [33:06] now the king of Egypt kind of brought a whole bunch of different people together kind of think of it as like a League of [33:12] Nations right the team of all different nations and they came together and he like oh we about to take these boys out [33:19] so then the prophet came to rehobo him and he tried to give him a warning watch this [33:29] then came shamaya the prophet to rehoboam into the princess of Judah that were gathered together to Jerusalem [33:34] because of shishek and said unto them thus says yahuwah you have forsaken me and therefore I have also left you in [33:41] the hand of shishak right it's important to know that he's saying this is what God is saying you have forsaken me right [33:48] in other words you walked away from me and he's telling you so for that reason [33:54] I'm giving you over I'm walking away from you this is how God is it's not [33:59] that God loves everybody's stuff God will you know how people be saying you know I'm saying the kids keep that [34:05] same energy or imma match your energy or whatever y'all be saying right that's what God be doing you you get an [34:10] interview for sure [34:20] let's do it then right he gonna give you whatever it is so you when you get to [34:26] welcome when you when we out here and we get tempted to do whatever we want to do and we get to walking away from God or ignoring God or telling ourselves nope I [34:32] don't want to think about what the right thing is I want to do this and we do it but God be like okay we'll do that [34:37] because I'm gonna be over here and I'm not gonna look out for you the way I was looking out for you right [34:43] that's how I be let's keep going [34:50] we're from the princes of Israel and the King humbled themselves and they said the Lord is righteous and when the Lord [34:56] saw that they humbled themselves the word of the Lord came to shamaya again saying [35:02] they have humbled themselves therefore I will not destroy them but I will grant them some Deliverance right so now after [35:08] the people humble themselves in other words they kind of looked at it was like nah you know what we did mess up [35:13] we do need to serve the most high God we do need to correct ourselves right they [35:18] started to correct themselves and when the Mozart guy saw that here I ain't gonna wipe these boys all the [35:24] way out I'll give them a little bit of Deliverance but not all the way watch this [35:30] I will grant them some deliverance and my wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of shishak [35:35] nevertheless they shall be his servants that they may know my service in the service of the kingdoms of the countries [35:41] that's right so she Shack king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem and took away the Treasures of the house of the Lord [35:46] and the Treasures of the King's house he took all he carried away also the shields of gold which Solomon had made [35:52] instead of which king rehoboam made Shields of brass yeah so let's go let's [35:58] go back to uh our our give me 14. I think we yeah I think we read this in [36:05] uh read this in Kings give me uh Second Chronicles 14. [36:15] that was right you know what I'm saying right right after he died it wasn't even his second or third son that did it it [36:20] was the Run right after yeah [36:28] so if I just slept well this is uh talking about Elijah I'm advisor all right go ahead and take me over to uh [36:34] First Kings 14 then we didn't read about him that was a little too far [36:59] all right so on the screen we're kind of looking at the kings that we own but right now we dealing with real bone [37:06] and jeroboam right rehoboam and jeroboam we know rehoboam just died [37:13] all right all right it's about to die yeah um so we're about to get into his son [37:19] abaja so let's hear about it at that time Elijah the son of jeroboam [37:25] fell sick and jeroboam said to his wife arise this is 14. yeah we read this too right so [37:32] it's 15. all right so last week we talked about how jeroboam had a son jeroboam Sons got [37:41] his name was abaja also just like real born son is abaja jerborn son got sick [37:46] jeroboam tried to sneak to the prophet that told him that he would take over the northern kingdom but he didn't he [37:52] didn't want to let him know who he was so he sent his wife and told him to Scott his wife to disguise herself the [37:57] prophet already knew right so he commanded that Jeremy I mean he prophesied that jeroboam and his whole [38:03] family was gonna die all right there's a whole thing everybody that pee against the wall you know then your whole family [38:08] gonna die watch this now in the 18th year of King jeroboam [38:14] the son of ebat Reign abides him over Judah three years reigned here in Jerusalem and his mother's name was the [38:21] daughter of abai Shalom and he walked in all the sins of his father which he had done before him and his heart was not [38:28] perfect with the Lord his God as the heart of David his father that's right so reborn you know I'm saying his dad [38:35] messed up and then Elijah is doing the same thing that real boom is doing and that's Elijah's dad right you kind of [38:42] look at how I kind of flow down right and if you look at how I flow down you got anywhere do you see that yellow [38:48] arrow going I mean that that's a that's a descendant that's a child right so you [38:53] see it flow straight down from Solomon to rehoboam to abaja right so that's [38:58] that you know I'm saying Solomon was his granddad keep going let's see [39:06] nevertheless for David's sake did the Lord his God give him a lamp in [39:12] Jerusalem to set upon his son after him and to establish Jerusalem because David [39:18] did that which was right in the eyes of the Lord and turned not aside from anything that he commanded him all the days of his life except only the matter [39:24] of Uriah the hittite and there was war between rehoboam and jeroboam all the days of his life yeah I think sister [39:30] Sharon Wright she said we left off on 1610. oh yeah I think she right because uh we [39:38] were at this too all right let me see where we got 16. [39:43] what's 16 say 16 10 we left we get to 16. [39:49] I remember that was 15 though right this is 15. we definitely read that [39:54] whole movie was at the end of 15. we didn't get to ASA we're talking about [39:59] how ASA ran in his dad that's at the end of 15 no in the middle of 15 as they said we didn't talk about [40:05] ASA all right keep going now now the rest of the acts of abijah and [40:12] all that he did are they not written in the book of The Chronicles of the kings of Judah and there was war between abijah and jeroboam and abaijan slept [40:19] with his fathers and they buried him in the city of David and ASA his son reigned in his dead right so now we get [40:25] on to the next time the next time is Asa right so we're dealing with Reborn [40:32] then we go to advisor and then the next sign is Asa right here [40:38] right and jeroboam is still alive at this point let's keep going [40:43] and in the 20th year of jeroboam king of Israel reigned ASA over Judah and 40 and [40:49] one years reigned here in Jerusalem and his mother's name was maika the daughter of abaishalom and ASA did that which was [40:56] right in the eyes of yahuwah as did David as father and he took away the sodomites out of the land and removed [41:03] all the idols that his fathers had made and also maika his mother even her he [41:09] removed from being Queen because she had made an idol in a Grove and ASA destroyed her Idol and burnt it by the [41:15] Brook Kidron so now what do you notice about Asa [41:20] things are doing what's right you notice that ASA he ended up doing what's right [41:27] grab um about to help me out uh [41:32] um always want to say Exodus 34 but I know [41:37] that's not right um I'm gonna have to cheat a little bit on this one [41:43] let me see we have [41:55] oh we got it is oh it is Exodus 34. Exodus 34 7. [42:02] oh she just went with it yeah I don't even have the tea I should win with a mill [42:07] there's Exodus uh 34 Verse 7. [42:13] keeping Mercy for thousands forgiving iniquity and trans for giving iniquity and trans and transgression and sin that [42:20] will by no means clear the guilty visiting the iniquity of the father's upon them he said doing work visiting [42:26] the iniquities he said visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children of the fathers upon the [42:34] children right so when this when the father sins he visits that iniquity the [42:40] consequences of that iniquity also impacts the children of that father [42:46] right keep going and upon the children's children until [42:52] the third into the fourth generation he said he does it until the third or until [42:57] the fourth generation right it is important to understand how that [43:03] works right he's saying the consequences that come from the sins [43:08] of the father is going to impact the kids and it's going to do that for three or four [43:14] generations so a generation is saying I'm the dad right these are Generations [43:21] right David is one generation then Solomon is the second generation and then rehoboam is the next generation and [43:28] abaja is the next Generation right so let's count those Generations who had the very first sin [43:36] David right then he sinned in the matter of Uriah [43:41] the hittite so then let's count one generation Solomon [43:48] Solomon had to deal with that stuff didn't he right Solomon had to deal with the women [43:55] David had multiple wise he even went out to go take another man's wife [44:01] Solomon yeah that impact you like the women's right the next you [44:09] gotta reborn reborn didn't have as many wives of Solomon but that boy still had a lot yeah a lot boy still got a lot and [44:16] he starts sinning remember they did the same thing Solomon said his sin was he started to kind of follow after the gods [44:22] and some of his wives and all that stuff so they rehoboam did the same thing he [44:28] kept it going right he had the high place to sacrifice the other guys all that good stuff reboom tried to Humble [44:34] himself though at the end we didn't hear that about Solomon right we didn't hear from Solomon at the [44:39] end he tried to Humble himself right but we did hear that about real bone so it's getting a little better but still you [44:45] got two generations you got the third generation which is abaja and the book didn't go into too much detail but it [44:51] was like everybody he's still wild or two he did the same things right to have three generations and then [44:57] what do you know in the fourth generation Ace is trying to straighten it up [45:03] right so it's looking like nah man we gotta clean this up we gotta figure this out we gotta clean this up right because [45:09] that's how the most high God works ASA didn't because he he made it past that [45:14] third generation the most high God didn't visit it to the fourth generation in this case and [45:20] because of that ASA didn't have all of that weight from the past Generations on her he didn't have that generational [45:26] curses some people might call it right so he he could be free of it [45:31] and now he started to operate closer to David not quite like David but closer to David so he's trying to clean stuff up [45:38] right keep going to Exodus [45:43] um no no keep going uh matter of fact grab uh grab [45:51] Second Chronicles chapter 14 now [45:57] Second Chronicles chapter 14. because it's gonna give us a little bit [46:03] more detail [46:13] and we gonna follow the same pattern right as we go through as we go through this whole list we gonna follow the [46:19] pattern of how these things are visited each time the one our King sin we're [46:25] gonna kind of look at three or four of his sons gonna have to deal with that mess and then you're gonna see it start [46:30] to get cleaned up almost every time we're gonna see it's going after it happened after three or it's gonna happen after four [46:36] keep going it's important that we kind of notice this stuff because this stuff is not it like it's not explained and [46:43] made obvious in the Bible right you just kind of have to see the biblical Concepts and that's how you [46:49] kind of have to look at life too you know what I'm saying it's like it's not it's not it's not like a book in the Bible that can say hey this is exactly [46:55] how it worked if you notice you'll see that the Kings and you know I'm saying you don't you only pick that up by [47:01] reading the Bible and being familiar with it by being educated on what's what's going on but the biblical [47:06] principles are always there right the stuff that's in our law is always playing out [47:11] right constantly and that's what we look for because that's how you find yahushua that's how you find a messiah keep going [47:18] so Elijah slept with his fathers and they buried him in the city of David and ASA his son reigned in his place in his [47:26] days the land was quiet 10 years and ASA did that which was good and right in the eyes of the Lord his God for he for he [47:33] took away the altars of the strange gods and the high places and break down the images and cut down the Grove and [47:38] commanded Judah to seek yahuwah the god of their fathers and to and to do the law and the Commandment also he took [47:45] away out of all the cities of Judah the high places and the images and the kingdom was quiet before him and he [47:50] built thin cities in Judah for the land had rest and he had no war in those years because the Lord had given him [47:55] rest therefore he said unto Judah let us build these cities and make about them [48:00] walls and Towers Gates and bars while the land is yet before us because we have sought yahuwah Our God we have [48:08] sought him and he has given us rest on every side so they built and prospered and ASA had an army of men that bear [48:14] targets and Spears out of Judah three hundred thousand and of Benjamin that [48:19] bear shields in Drew Bose 200 and 180 000. [48:24] all these were Mighty Men of Valor and there came out against them Zara the Ethiopian with a host of a thousand [48:31] thousand and 300 chariots and came unto Marisha all right so now the Ethiopia [48:37] now African came after us right Ethiopia was like yo right had he had a whole [48:43] bunch of people with him too right watch what happened but remember Asia had peace for a little bit so during the [48:49] time of Peace he wasn't just relaxing he started building up the cities he started building up the Army right watch [48:55] this keep going the NASA went out against him and they set the battle in Array and the valley of [49:01] zephita and Marisha and ASA Cried unto yahuwah his God and said yahuwah it is [49:07] nothing with youth it is nothing with you to help whether with many or with [49:13] them that have no power help us O Lord Our God for we rest on you and in your name we go against this multitude oh [49:20] Lord you are our God let not man Prevail against you so the Lord smote the Ethiopians before ASA and before Judah [49:27] and the Egyptians fled and ASA and the people that were with him pursued them on together and the Ethiopians were [49:33] overthrown that they could not recover themselves so they were destroyed before yahuwah and before his hosts and They [49:39] Carried Away very much spoil and they smote all the cities round about Girard for the fear the lord Came Upon them and [49:45] they spoiled the cities for there was exceedingly much spoil in them they smote also the tents of cattle and [49:51] carried away sheep and camels in abundance and returned to Jerusalem right so the Ethiopians are the [49:57] Ethiopians a nearby country for us are far it's pretty far right Ethiopians was [50:02] a far country for us it wasn't one of the countries that the most hot guy said you know I'm saying you can't make a [50:07] league with them so you notice we chase them boys down and we see where they was camping we start taking all their stuff [50:15] right after after they they they tried to make war with us we went chased them down found where they was camped out [50:22] near our places and we took them they wasn't near us they didn't live near us but they was close to us in the sense of [50:28] where they was camped out at right so they were kind of over there where the Philistines are at they just camped out [50:34] where the Philistines are all right and we took them took all their stuff back we took the animals took any goods and [50:41] we though that's when the book when they say spoil them that's what it's talking about saying we took all their stuff right keep going [50:47] and the spirit of God Came Upon Azariah the son of Odette and he went out to [50:53] meet ASA and said unto him here ye me ASA and all Judah and Benjamin the Lord is with you while you be with him and if [51:00] you seek Him He will be found of you that's right but if you forsake Him He will forsake you right so that's how God [51:05] worked under listen if y'all don't do nothing else understand that principle of God right [51:12] if you mess with me I mess with you that is throughout the book no matter that's [51:18] what he just said read it again for me I'm gonna show you where you said in the New Testament too the Lord is with you while you be with him uh-huh if you seek [51:24] Him He will be found of you but if you forsake Him He will ref He will forsake you right so look [51:31] most our God is with you when you when when you were him you seek him he gonna be found of you [51:38] you don't seek Him you forsake them you're gonna forsake you too that's how it works right this is uh John chapter [51:45] 15 real quick and while we getting that uh sister [51:50] Sharon so look the the the Ethiopians are the answer is no the Ethiopian so [51:57] sister Sharon asked are the Ethiopians the only tribe that haven't been conquered yet so there's a there are [52:03] many different nations and people that haven't been conquered right we dealing with like a very very small little piece [52:10] on the mountain small part of the world yeah very small part of the world is all types of like when when you read the [52:17] history books and all that stuff or when when you got your history teacher teaching you about this stuff [52:23] there's a whole lot of other stuff going on in different places of the world at this point but we're just in this small area in [52:30] this small area is Israel and a bunch of Nations around it we conquered the Nations that were [52:37] very close to us just kind of right in our area so if I pull up the map you know I'm saying let me see if I can get [52:43] a map up for you if I pull up the map real quick [52:50] see here right so if I pull up this map here [52:57] this map is showing you all the areas that we would conquer now if I look at this map real quick [53:04] just so you can get like a real picture of what what we talking about and what we're dealing with right so let's say [53:10] Google Earth yeah I mean I'm gonna show you how [53:16] small [53:30] all right so let's take a look at this can you see that okay so I'm gonna show you how small this [53:37] little area is so it's the whole world right without the hole where you know little Christian song about the whole [53:43] world and then you know I'm saying it's the whole thing right and then you zoom in [53:49] and I know it's in Hebrew watch how many people you got here it got to be at least one Hebrew watching because the [53:54] Hebrew gonna say the World is Flat I already know I don't know what's wrong with y'all but listen you're gonna go [53:59] here and this is the area so that map that we was just looking at this map right this map is capturing this area [54:07] right here all right this area right here so we [54:13] took over a lot of stuff in this very small area if I zoom out look how small that is right it's just this little dot [54:21] right here right Ethiopia though is all over here [54:27] right this is where Ethiopia like like today Ethiopia is down here [54:34] right but when they're talking about Ethiopia they talking about people that came from right here right so it's it's so it's [54:42] south of us these are not people that we conquered and there's a whole bunch of other people as people in Egypt that we [54:47] just had to fight fight with we haven't we didn't conquer them and then even going further there's more people over [54:53] here going way down here the Queen of Sheba she came from like somewhere down here right we didn't conquer her right [55:00] it's a whole lot of other people of course all the white folks that's up here the Gentiles the other Gentiles [55:06] they appear we didn't conquer them so it's a lot of people that we haven't touched and we haven't conquered at this [55:11] point but let's look at John chapter 15 because I want y'all to understand the [55:16] concept right the concept is most of our God said look if you seek me I'll be found to you right and I'm with you as [55:23] long as you with me oh that's literally what he's saying as long as you with me I'm with you but if [55:29] you forsake me I'ma forsake you the same concept we'll find the New Testament is John chapter 15 verse 1. I am the True [55:36] Vine and my father is the husband uh-huh every branch in me that bears not fruit he takes away that's right in every [55:42] branch that he buried that bears fruit he purges he purges it that it may bring [55:48] forth more fruit correct now you are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you abide in me and I in you [55:55] as the branch cannot bear fruit of itself except it abide in the vine no more can you except you abide in me [56:00] that's right I am the vine you are the branches now you got abides in me and I in him the same bring forth much fruit [56:07] uh-huh for without me you can do nothing but I mean you can't do nothing watch this if a man abide not in me he is cast [56:14] forth as a branch and is withered that's the same as saying if you forsake me I'll forsake you he's saying if you do [56:20] not remain in me he you will be cast forth as a branch [56:26] right keep going watch this and it's withered and Men gather them and cast them into [56:31] the fire and they are burned uh-huh if you abide in me in my words abide in you you shall ask what you will and it shall [56:37] be done unto you I got you if you got me is what he's saying right keep going he'll keep saying it hearing is my [56:43] father glorified that you bear much fruit so shall you be my disciples as [56:48] the father so say you be my Christians disciples so shall you be my Muslims [56:54] disciple so say you be my Baptist the book say disciple why I'ma call [56:59] myself other it's a promise attached to that it's a today it's a promise he said look [57:05] you do what I say so shall you be my disciples why would I call myself a Christian [57:12] show me in the Bible where there's a promise that's actually being a Christian show me in the Bible where the most high guys say do this and you can [57:18] be a Christian that's why anybody can be a Christian there's no I laugh when I see Christian [57:24] you're not a real Christian how are you going to tell somebody who a real Christian is I think it made up anybody can be a [57:30] Christian any type of Christian you want to be can't judge nobody what type of Christian they are [57:36] be Christian is right when they say don't judge me you know I'm saying we're going to judge him more how to be a Christian [57:42] keep on let's see as a father loved me so have I loved you continue in my love that's right if you keep my Commandments [57:49] you shall abide in my love even as I have kept the father's Commandments and abide in his love these things have I [57:55] spoken unto you that my joy might remain in you and that your joy might be full this is my commitment that you love one [58:01] another as I've loved you watch this greater love has no man than this then a man lay down his life for his friends [58:08] that's right you are my friends if you if you do whatsoever I command you I got [58:13] that right that's the condition if you do what I say you're my friend if you [58:18] don't you'll be Cast Away just like a just like a branch a dried [58:23] up branch and it's gonna wither and you know what people do with dried up branches they pick them up and make firewood out of them that's what he just [58:30] told you it's the same thing he was telling you in the Old Testament right let's go back [58:36] it's the exact same thing he was telling you in the Old Testament a lot of people like that like to imagine that like oh [58:42] no When Jesus came everything changed that's a lie nothing changed nothing [58:49] changed it's the same prophecy that we've been waiting for since since uh waiting on since uh Moses gave it to us [58:56] right nothing changed we just been waiting and now the man is here [59:02] let's see keep going before we leave off uh Second Chronicles 15. [59:10] it's verse one yeah okay we can we can stop there then so we'll pick up we'll pick up next week on uh second Chronicle [59:18] I think we'll pick up second chronicles 15. we might jump back over in the Kings because you know it's different detail [59:24] looks it's a slightly different details in each of them so I kind of want to touch on both of them so we can kind of [59:29] see the differences um any questions let everybody sleep [59:38] any questions online it's a delay you know they gotta sit [59:43] here and wait for y'all that's all right y'all got the number text me if you have any questions let's [59:49] go ahead and pray out foreign
