given freely as a gift to all who obey him we understand that if we do not obey him it is made manifest or made obvious [00:37] that you do not believe in this state you should expect no good thing from the most high however anything that you do [00:44] get whether it be a gift of tongues a gift of Prophecy or any Supernatural experience that you may have it can and [00:50] it will be used against you in the day of judgment with that said Peace to the saints that are in the room to the [00:55] Saints watching in on the camera for the saints that couldn't make it the Saints out there that we don't even know about but no peace to the wicked we only say [01:02] to them repent that they might live I [01:07] know that's right let's uh let's recap what we talking about last [01:12] week what prophet did we talk about last week it was on Ezekiel Isaiah not [01:19] Ezekiel I mean not not Isaiah but yeah it was Ezekiel we talked about Ezekiel what did we learn about Ezekiel Ezekiel [01:26] Saw some things you know what I'm saying what did Ezekiel see who remembers [01:34] that boy saw that boy saw visions of God is what he said yeah he saw some Vision you remember he saw he saw he saw the [01:41] Beast you know what I'm saying they had four darn faces and and and and four wings you know what I'm saying they hand [01:48] they had legs like Calves like cows and then they were moving side to side they [01:53] didn't break their ranks you know what I'm saying the whole you know what I'm saying they moving side to side you know what I'm saying stay Stayed in line with [01:58] each other what else [02:04] hea Throne yeah they had when they Wings was flapping it made it made noise like it [02:10] was a whole bunch of people talking right that's that noise that you hear when you go to a choir or something like [02:15] that then they also had that wheel remember it was a wheel inside of a wheel and outside of it had had look [02:20] like had eyeballs all over it right and that thing was moving along with them then after that they saw a little a [02:26] little space over they head and that thing was like clear like you know what I'm saying and they said when they looked through that thing [02:32] guess what they saw a darn Throne sitting on top of it they said on the throne that thing was like fire you know [02:38] what I'm saying and so they start to look at him they say that's where the most high was he saying that's he after that he felt weak fell down you know [02:46] what I'm saying then after that he saw uh he saw a vision and he had a vision about you know what I'm saying words [02:51] that was written on the scroll on the road you know what I'm saying on the book you know what I'm saying then he had to eat it and when he ate it what [02:57] did it taste like honey tastes like honey right that thing was sweet just like honey but then when he [03:04] went away you know what I'm saying how'd he feel after that bitter he felt bitter [03:09] after that right after he ate it and it felt like mea sit down okay just have a seat [03:17] please but um he uh he felt bitter after that you know what I'm saying after a [03:22] while you know what I'm saying he walked away that thing felt bitter right then what was the vision he saw after that in chapter [03:28] three who remember what happened in chapter 3 chapter 3 remember the most high God [03:34] start giving them some real Direction after that now remember chapter three he told him he gonna be like a [03:42] what didn't he have to keep keep watch he gonna be a Watchman right and [03:50] he said most high God told him if if the most high God tell you that this man sin [03:55] and you don't tell him his blood is on it's your fault if he die right right but if you tell him then it's his fault [04:01] if he die then he starts letting us know about how he look at sin he said man if you sin your whole life but then you [04:07] turn away from your sin and you righteous what he do with your sin what he think about your sin you forget [04:13] forget all about your sin don't he but then he said if you righteous all your life and then you commit a sin then what [04:20] happened I won't remember your right he forget about all that darn righteousness so we talked a little bit about it's [04:25] about how you end it's about your life it's it's about how you live up until the end of your life and a lot of us try [04:32] to play around a lot of people try to play around like yeah I'm G get it in I'mma have fun I'mma send it up and at the last minute right before I take my [04:38] last breath I'm G try to be righteous and most high God ain't mocked right so a lot of people we think to assume that [04:45] you could do that is assume that you have control so the best we ought to do just because it takes a lot of like you [04:51] you you have to get yourself correct to make a life that is righteous right it's [04:56] not like it's not like something that you could just turn on and turn off when you think you can turn it on and turn off you double minded and that's [05:02] unrighteous in itself right you have to make sure you build up the habits that it takes to become a righteous man or a [05:09] righteous woman and then doing that that mean you got to start whenever the most high God give you breath your your [05:14] breath every every ounce and every fiber in your body is is supposed to love yah right and when you put everything in [05:20] your body to love yah then you got to turn away from all sin turn away from some [05:25] sins no turn away from all them things get that get all them things up about of right so that was uh that was Ezekiel [05:33] that we read about remember Ezekiel he was he went into captivity right so he went into Ezekiel went into [05:39] captivity um around the same time I mean after the time that jeanah went because [05:45] you remember jeah I mean not Janiah uh uh jein right another name they call him is [05:52] Janiah but you know I'm saying we we we we've been referring to him as jein so [05:57] jein he you know what I'm saying he went in into uh captivity and uh a lot of the [06:03] people went into captivity like Daniel and all that and so throughout that time people were going into captivity so at [06:08] this time zedekiah was set up right because remember we talked about we talked about uh Nebuchadnezzar you [06:15] remember Nebuchadnezzar last week or the week before last Nebuchadnezzar he was running the show Top Dog thought he was [06:22] running it Daniel he captured Daniel Daniel started you know what I'm saying giving him dreams and all this stuff [06:28] giving the interpreting his dreams for him and then most high God made Nebuchadnezzar real low didn't he [06:33] remember he turned him into an animal he is running around eating with the animals with the worms that's how Isaiah described he had eaten with the worms [06:40] after after a while after I think it was seven years he looked up and and the most high God gave him back his reason [06:45] he gave him back his understanding all right so Nebuchadnezzar was the king but during the midst of all this time you [06:51] had Ezekiel prophesying right and then during the midst of that time also you had uh [06:58] zedekiah who became king so let's let's actually start there let's go to uh let's go to Second [07:05] Kings uh Second Kings chapter [07:12] 24 second Kings chapter [07:28] 24 give me like verse uh I don't know verse 15 verse what I [07:35] want start me like Jack jein I want to recap on jein first it shouldn't be a [07:40] whole lot verse eight verse eight this is uh eight that far yeah so give me uh [07:47] give me second Kings chapter 24:8 watch what the book say and jein was 18 years [07:53] old when he began to Reign uhhuh and he reigned in Jerusalem three months [07:59] and his mother's name was nusa the daughter of el Nathan of Jerusalem and [08:05] he did that which was evil in the side of Yahweh according to all that his father had done at that time the Servants of [08:12] Nebuchadnezzar King of Babylon came up against Jerusalem and the city was besieged and Nebuchadnezzar King of [08:17] Babylon came against the city and his servants did besiege it and jeim the king of Judah went out to the king of [08:23] Babylon he and his mother and his servants and his princes and his officers the king notice that [08:29] Nebuchadnezzar took he took his servants and his princes he took his mama you [08:34] know what I'm saying so he took he took he took he took the royalty right he took the people of upper class right you [08:42] remember Daniel confirmed that for us in the first chapter of Daniel that's what it said he said man it took he took the people that was of upper class and after [08:48] that he brought them in you remember Daniel he brought him in and he said listen this is what y'all going to eat [08:54] y'all going to clean y yourself up and y'all going to do this for three years he told him you do it for three years then y'all can stand in front of the [09:00] king you remember Daniel was like listen we not going to eat that food right what Daniel say remember remember Daniel's [09:06] like look no we not about to eat no unclean food just give me the pulse right and the pul is you know you kind [09:11] of had like a vegetarian diet got look at it like a vegan or a vegetarian diet [09:17] so you find even a lot of people right now they call it a a Daniel Fast right [09:22] they'll look at it and they'll say okay well Daniel he he he refused to eat [09:29] right for x amount of time he refused to eat the meat he just ate the post so they say okay well we just going to eat [09:35] fruits and vegetables and that's a Daniel Fast but remember did Daniel call it a fast no what was Daniel doing he [09:43] just didn't want to eat unclean meat keeping the law if they had clean meat he would have ate it it wasn't like he [09:48] wasn't he was against eating meat he just wasn't gonna eat no unclean meat that's right Daniel was just keeping the law yeah yeah I said that's what happen [09:56] that's what get missed with tradition right a lot of time people just you you have a tradition in Christianity they [10:01] call it the Daniel Fast but what gets Miss is really he was just keeping the law right but if you don't value the law [10:09] then you just start calling it a fast right most high God wouldn't have looked at what Daniel did as Daniel [10:15] affli a fast is you afflicting yourself right you punishing [10:20] yourself right that that's not that's not how the most high God we don't have no documentation in the book saying that [10:25] that's how the most high God viewed it or that's how Daniel viewed it he didn't View is afflicting his he just looked at it like I'm just going to keep the law [10:32] that's that's standard right but it's a blessing in keeping the law a lot of people don't realize uh grab Ezekiel I'm not Ezekiel [10:41] uh Exodus chapter uh 15 give me Exodus chapter 15 give me [10:47] verse might need some help give me the last verse Give me the give me give me the third to the last [10:53] verse this is Exodus chapter 15 and whatever the third to the last vers [11:00] is 23 man I was going to guess like 23 22 too uh give me Exodus chapter 15 [11:08] verse 22 cuz Mel said 23 I got to go one before you know what I'm talking [11:16] about M don't be trying to teach no Bible [Laughter] [11:27] now so Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea and they look so Moses brought [11:32] Israel through the Red Sea right that's how he got us here y'all this stuff got [11:37] to be Vivid in our mind most high God got us here by having us cross over a big old sea of water and then he split [11:45] that thing right in front of us then we walked around on on dry ground as we [11:50] going over that thing swallowed up the Egyptians that thing got to be Vivid in their mind that's the that's the start [11:56] of our nation that's how we started right then we go in and then you know what I'm saying fast forward we disobey [12:02] the most high God Romans start taking us over they push us into Africa Muslims start to enslave us then the Muslims [12:08] sold us out to the Europeans then they discovered America and then they sold us out and made us slaves all over the [12:16] Americas all over the world really but all over the Americas right so that's like but our story [12:22] starts when Moses brought us out of the Red Sea and then watch what happened next they went on to the Wilderness to [12:29] of sh and they went three days in the wilderness and found no water and look they didn't find any water but watch [12:35] this when they came to marah they could not drink the Waters of mea for they were bitter therefore the name of it was [12:41] called mea the people murmured against Moses saying what shall we drink and he [12:46] cried unto the Lord and the Lord showed him a tree which he had cast into the waters and the waters were made sweet [12:53] there he made for them a statute and an ordinance and there he proved them and said if you will diligently hearken unto [13:00] the voice of Yahweh thy God and will do and will do that which is right in his [13:05] sight and will give ear to his Commandments all his statutes I will put [13:10] none of these diseases upon thee which I he said I'll do what Egyptians I will put none of these diseases upon thee [13:16] which I brought upon the Egyptians so now listen if you are in [13:22] captivity right he's saying that by keeping the law the stuff that was in [13:27] your captivity you won't get any of those diseases that's what he's talking to us about right and all we got to do [13:34] is do what let's read it again if you will diligently hearken to [13:39] the voice of Yahweh thy God and will do that which is right in his sight and will give ear to his Commandments and [13:45] keep all his statutes I will put none of these diseases upon thee which I have brought upon the Egyptians for I am [13:50] Yahweh that healed thee right so if we look at it keeping the law is what the most high God gave [13:57] us as a way to heal ourselves right so a lot of time we do a [14:03] Daniel Fast or we do you know we do this or we do that you know what I'm saying and it's like that's fine right do [14:09] whatever you want to call it it's not a fast right what Daniel was doing is keeping the law we ought to we ought to [14:15] just say maybe let's keep the law because there's a promise attached to it we've been talking about on our [14:20] fellowship call we talk about it often right the promises that come with the law and the promises that come with [14:26] yahushua it's two different things right if you want healing in your flesh [14:32] in this flesh that you got right now right you don't want to wait until you you listening to yahua you wait until [14:39] you die for just about everything that he promised you you have to understand that yahua didn't promise you too much [14:45] for this life everything he almost everything he talking to you about you got to die [14:50] before you see it that's not what that's not what Moses gave Moses gave us stuff for our flesh [14:57] but right now Moses gave stuff that help us out for right now Moses is telling us listen if you keep these laws I ain't [15:04] going to put them diseases on [15:10] y'all all we got to do is keep the law that's that's something you ask yourself why am I gonna keep the law that's one [15:16] reason as a Christian you looking at it you looking like why would I keep the law law done away with that's a reason [15:23] law ain't done away with that's how you get your healing not [15:28] by just cutting out meat out of your diet you know what I'm saying you going on to you going on a diet for for 20 21 [15:34] how long they be doing in 21 days she doing it right now goodness [15:39] graci I'm just surrounded by Christians he don't she just eating vegetables [15:50] huh yeah see I got that I got that they got they got her too goodness great I'm about to call her right now you know [15:56] what I mean but that's what happened right that's what happen why you do it in this 21 days ask one of them where [16:04] they read it where they read it nowhere but guess what this Pastor said it then [16:09] this pastor adopted and everybody adopted and at the beginning of the year somehow I don't know where they got the date from I don't know but it's a [16:15] tradition and that thing get bigger every year and every year I'm the lone person saying that's not a fast you know [16:23] I'm saying they everybody looking at me like boy shut up you I'm saying it's like but it's now he just just keeping [16:29] the law you know just all right whatever you know what I'm saying like go ahead don't eat meat if you don't want to [16:35] right but it's a diet so you go on a diet for 21 days and that's good if you want to lose a little weight maybe you [16:42] know what I'm saying you trying to drop a couple pounds that's good but if you trying to heal your body right you trying to be great in the [16:49] Kingdom oh you got to do a little bit more than that right you just do a little bit more than that right let's go [16:56] to um let's go to uh uh uh what what did we leave off from [17:01] second 2 Kings chapter 24:8 uh verse [17:15] 12 second Kings chapter 24 what verse 12 this 2 Kings chapter 24 verse 12 [17:23] verse 12 what page number do it look like [17:30] that's what I do I ain't going to say it no more 2 Kings 24:2 repeat it to yourself [17:39] quietly I'm wrong with all right let's go what the book [17:47] say oh you ain't got it either or you on mute uh I'm here all [17:55] right yeah he need me to repeat it too [18:01] can't buy good help around you know you could do this thing yourself if you going to keep on you [18:06] know what I'm saying see that's his headache [Laughter] [18:19] talking and jeho the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon he and his [18:24] mother and his servants and his princes and his officers and the king of Babylon took him in the eighth year of his [18:30] Reign he carried out then all the treasuries of the House of Yahweh and the treasuries of the King house and cut [18:37] in pieces all the vessels of gold which Solomon king of Israel had made in the temple of the Lord as the Lord had [18:43] said and he carried away all Jerusalem and all the princes and all the Mighty Men of Valor even 10,000 captives and [18:50] all the Craftsman and Smiths none remain except the poorest sword of the people of of the land and he Carri carried away [18:58] jeho into Babylon and the King's mother and the King's wives and his officers and the mighty of the land those carried [19:05] he into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon and all the men of might even [19:11] 7,000 even 7,000 Craftsmen and Smiths a thousand and all that were strong and [19:16] apt for war even them the king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon the king of Babylon made madah his father's [19:24] brother King in his stad and change look so Mah was made King instead of uh jein [19:30] right but what what happened to matah let's see who matah is and the king of Babylon made Mah his [19:37] father's brother King in his head and changed his name to zedekiah right so Mah then had a name [19:43] change to zedekiah right and remember Nebuchadnezzar is the one who chose to [19:50] have his name changed he change him to zedekiah so now zedekiah is the king [19:55] let's let's hear about zedekiah a little bit zedekiah was 21 years old when he began to Reign he reigned 11 years in [20:02] Jerusalem and his mother's name was hamu hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of [20:08] libna he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord according to all that jeim had done and through the anger and [20:15] through the anger of the Lord it came to pass in Jerusalem and Judah until he had cast him out from his presence that Zed [20:22] the king of Babylon so zedekiah while he was the king he didn't please the most [20:27] high God right most high God grew even more angry with [20:33] zedekiah and this is what Jeremiah so this is who Jeremiah had to deal with [20:39] right because at this point remember Jeremiah had talked to Josiah right everybody up there he talked to Josiah [20:45] he talked to jehoahaz he talked to jeho Kim and he talked to jeho [20:50] Chin now you have zedekiah in there these are all the different kings that [20:56] Jeremiah had to deal with have one of them listen to [21:02] him outside of outside of uh Josiah not one of them listen to [21:08] him right so now let's let's pick up at uh Jeremiah chapter 29 let's just kind [21:15] of see how he talking to the people it's Jeremiah chapter [21:23] 29 Jeremiah chapter 2 29 we're gon to start at verse one [21:46] now these are the words of the letter that Jeremiah the prophet sent from Jerusalem unto the residue of the elders [21:51] which were carried away captive and to the priests and to the prophets to all the people from whom whom Nebuchadnezzar [21:57] had carried carried away captive from Jerusalem to Babylon after that jeconiah the king and the queen and the Unix and [22:04] the princes of Judah and Jerusalem and the Carpenters and the Smiths were departed from Jerusalem by the hand of [22:10] elash the son of Chapan and gah the son of hilah whom zedekiah king of Judah [22:15] sent unto Babylon to Nebuchadnezzar King of Babylon saying so zedekiah sent some people onto [22:22] Nebuchadnezzar right watch this [22:28] thus says Yahweh of host the god of Israel unto all that were carried away captives whom I have caused to be [22:34] carried away from Jerusalem unto Babylon build ye houses and dwell in them plant Gardens and eat the fruit of them take [22:41] ye wives and beget sons and daughters and take wives for your sons and give your daughters to husbands right [22:47] zedekiah send folks over to to to uh Babylon and then Jeremiah was like yo yo [22:53] yo take this letter with you and so in this letter he's reading it to him and it's saying is like listen make [22:59] yourselves real comfortable over there that's pretty much what he telling them I know y'all got captured y'all got gaffled up y'all got take it into [23:06] captivity go ahead it's all right make your yourself real comfortable over there build houses go ahead find [23:13] somebody to marry your son F somebody to marry your your uh your daughters it's gonna be all right everything gonna be [23:18] good but be real comfortable because this how it's about to be for a little while watch this keep [23:24] going that they may bear sons and daughters that you may be increased there and not diminished and seek the [23:30] peace of the city whether I have caused where I have caused you to be carried away captive right he says seek the [23:37] peace of the city in other words don't try to don't try to put your hand with their enemies and try to get them [23:42] conquered you look at a lot of the Hebrews they looking over there and you got the you know what I'm saying you got you got you got like the enemy like oh [23:49] yeah Russia gonna tear this place down you know what I'm saying this that nothing that's not what the most high God told us to do you know what saying [23:55] China man China China going to tear America down Babylon coming down that's not what the book told us to [24:01] do right it didn't say look at the enemy he said sick the Peace of this place most high God we he gave us [24:08] prophecy of what gonna happen that ain't our job our job is to seek the peace of the plague as long as it's peace we got [24:15] a way out it's a little relief for us keep going watch this seek the peace of the city whether [24:22] I have caused you to be carried away captives and pray unto the Lord for it for in the peace thereof shall you have [24:27] peace for thus says Yahweh of host the god of Israel what a Hebrew going to say if they catch you praying for America right [24:34] now if we just said let's just everybody let's just hold our hand Circle in prayer right and let's say a prayer for [24:40] America as as Hebrew right we are Israelites Yahweh and we serve yahua we [24:46] talking like that we serve yahua we keep the law statutes you know Hebrews love some law listen all you got to do you [24:52] know like Christian you know how Christians say God is good but what they gonna say [24:58] like Jesus all the time right Jesus Is God Jesus is good [25:04] all all little you know what I'm saying Christian catchphrases you know what the the Hebrew one [25:10] is law statutes Commandments if you say that around a Hebrew you just go up to a [25:15] Hebrew be like law statues command it a even got to make sense what you talking about law statutes Commandments just say [25:21] lost statute commandment to a Hebrew they G be like yeah Buddy lost statute commandment you know what I'm saying [25:28] that's they that's they little catchphrase the Hebrews boy you can lost statute commandment they but to death [25:33] they'll be none the wises it don't matter what you talking about just slip lost statute commandment in there they [25:40] gonna trust you they'll be like oh that's a brother you know what I'm saying that's a brother that's a good brother right there they don't care what [25:45] you talking about right what we talking about before this how I get to [25:52] that seek the peace of the city oh so yeah if we circle around we [25:58] we praying and we talking about law statute commandment Lord and Yahweh you [26:03] can't say Lord with a Hebrew though they gonna be like no that's an ancient that's an ancient Roman god or something you saying they gonna hit you with [26:08] something you can't say Lord around the Hebrew you gotta say you know what I'm saying you gotta say Yahweh you know what I'm saying yah you know what I'm [26:14] saying depending on how they pronounce it you gota be you got to take it easy because they they not all of them pronounce it Yahweh now you know what [26:20] I'm saying some of them pronounce you know what I'm saying what's the what's the uh how the uh how them one boys [26:25] pronounce theirs they do a high a higher yah a higher or something like that yeah it's [26:32] like don't be making fun of them now but they they they making a high I think they do a higher yah a higher how they [26:37] do it you know what I'm saying so a lot of them just say a higher you know what I'm saying so it's like you the safest way you just say yah but I saw some on

you know what I'm [26:56] saying so you got yah you know what I'm saying be like yah you know what I'm saying on top of praying for our you [27:01] know what I'm saying our forefathers that came before us and they sin you know what I'm saying and don't remember they sin y'all we also want to pray for [27:09] America I guarantee you the whole record gon you know what I'm saying all the [27:15] Hebrews standing around they gonna look like pray for what you know what I'm saying y' we just like to play pray for [27:20] all the nations that took us into captivity just give them peace y'all they G be looking like what did you just [27:27] say you know what I'm saying because they don't play that thing you know what I'm saying it's a lot of stuff built rightfully so now don't get me wrong we [27:34] should have something built up against these nations that took our people captive don't get me wrong now but [27:39] that's not how the book told us to handle it most high God say when I take you away to the place of your captivity [27:45] pray for them people seek the peace of those Nations we saw Daniel serving [27:51] Nebuchadnezzar while he's doing this while he's tearing down our people tearing down and stealing everything out [27:57] our Temple his Gentile fingertips took their nasty Claws and [28:04] touched our holy things are set aart vessels he put his nasty dirty nasty [28:13] Heathen hands on it and took it back to his land of course we gonna look at that thing and be like what that's [28:21] foolishness for us right nevertheless what Daniel do the whole time serve him [28:27] he interpreted his dream for him he had to tell him that yeah most high God gave it to you you the top of the [28:33] top he seeks the Peace of his Nation he helped him guide his [28:40] Nation this is uh keep going for thus says the Lord of host the god of Israel let not your prophets and [28:47] your divers that be in the midst of you deceive you neither hearken to your dreams which you have caused to be [28:52] dreamed but they prophesy falsely unto you in my name I have not he looking they lying to you everybody who telling [29:00] you it's going to be all right them boys is lying to you keep going for thus says the Lord that after [29:07] 70 years be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you and perform my good word towards you in causing you to return to [29:13] this place right so when did the 70-year count [29:21] start they went over it started right there right [29:26] because remember this letter is going out right after jehoich chin got taken captive along with some of the upper [29:33] echelons of the people not everybody was taking captain and our Temple hasn't been destroyed yet our Temple gonna be [29:39] destroyed in zedekiah's time right so this is right right at the start of zedekiah's time right he took some of [29:47] our people that's when the 70 years starts it didn't start with literally our whole we never really was completely [29:54] out of land like down to the person but it didn't start when the mass majority of our people was out of the land right [30:00] now it's still a lot of people in our land we still got a king in our land right so the 70 years started when [30:06] jeho Chim was taken and then the count begins he said look just wait 70 years I'mma Be Back to see about [30:13] y'all right I say that because I was I was I noticed I didn't notice this at first but I was talking to a brother [30:20] about about some of these things and I was I was telling them about how you know what I'm saying we gonna read about it but I was telling them about how some [30:26] of the people that was around when um when the new Temple the foundation of [30:32] the new Temple was laid they was crying because they was looking at this don't compare anything to you know I'm saying [30:38] the old Temple and then you know what I'm saying we got into a discussion about oh well you you they would have had to be at least 70 years old so they [30:46] for them to see it they would had to be a couple years old at least to see it and then add 70 years to that because [30:52] that's when they would have got taken so these people would have been super old and so that's when I noticed I'm like oh oh well no that's not necessarily the [30:58] case the count started well before you know what I'm saying the temple was destroyed so it's a lot of people that [31:04] would have been much younger than 70 that still saw the temple right they saw the temple in this original state then [31:11] they saw it get taken down so this is uh keep [31:20] going thus says the Lord that after 70 years be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you and perform my good word [31:26] towards you and causing you to return to this place I know the thoughts that I think towards you says Yahweh thoughts [31:33] of Peace this is look Christians love this but who is he talking to talking to the captives he's talking to the people [31:40] that went into captivity right he's telling them in look go ahead make the [31:45] most of your captivity because he says I know the thoughts that I have for you watch [31:50] this says the Lord thoughts of peace and not evil to give you an expected end then shall you come upon me and you [31:58] shall go and pray unto me and I will hearken unto you and ye shall seek me and find me when you shall search for me [32:05] with all your heart and I will be found of you says Yahweh and I will turn away [32:11] your captivity and will gather you from all the nations and from all the places where I have driven you says Yahweh and [32:17] I will bring you again into this place whence I called you caused you to be carried away captive because you have [32:23] said the Lord has raised us up prophets in Babylon know that this know that thus sayth [32:30] Yahweh of the king that sits upon the throne of David and of all the people that dwell in the city and your brethren [32:37] that are not gone forth with you into captivity thus says the Lord the Lord of hosts behold I will send upon them the [32:44] sword and famine and pestilence and will make them like vile figs that cannot be [32:49] eaten they are so evil and I will persecute them with the sword with the famine and with the pestilence and with [32:56] and will deliver and will deliver them to be removed to all the kingdoms of the earth to be a [33:01] curse and an astonishment and a hissing and a reproach among all the nations where I have driven them because they [33:08] have not hearkened unto my word says Yahweh which I sent unto them by my servants the prophets rising up early [33:16] sending them but ye will not hear says Yahweh hear ye therefore the word of the Lord all ye of the Captivity whom I have [33:22] sent from Jerusalem to Babylon thus says the Lord of hosts the god of Israel of Ahab the son of goah and of zedekiah the [33:31] son of Messiah which prophesy a lie unto you in my name behold he they prophesy a [33:38] lie unto you in my name watch this I will deliver them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar King of Babylon and he [33:44] shall slay them before your eyes and of them shall be taken up a curse by all [33:49] the Captivity of Judah which are in Babylon saying the Lord make you make thee like zedekiah and like Ahab whom [33:55] the king of Babylon roasted in in the fire because they have committed villainy in Israel and have committed [34:02] adultery with their neighbors wives and have spoken lying words in my name which I have not commanded them even I know [34:10] even I know and am a witness says yaha right so you look at you look at [34:16] Yahweh and he's sending a message by way of Jeremiah as a letter right to the people in Babylon right and that's [34:23] because it was so many lion prophets that ended up going they like yeah no this thing about to be all right we [34:28] about to get taken home most high God going to turn this thing around and it's like no that's not the case most high God was like no no get comfortable there [34:35] you know what I'm saying go ahead and build you some houses take care of yourself you know what I'm saying don't be thinking it's about to be over you [34:40] got 70 years you got to do that right it's a very long time that they got to sit out right so let's go to uh let's [34:48] look at Ezekiel because Ezekiel was one of the prophets that went into the Captivity right so Ezekiel was into the [34:56] Captivity remember we started he was at the river cabar in the Captivity with the captives right and he was he was amongst [35:03] or he was of the priests this is uh Ezekiel we left off at chapter 3 let's pick it up in verse I [35:10] mean chapter 4 it's Ezekiel chapter 4 I just want y'all to see what Ezekiel had to go through while he was in [35:25] captivity thou also son of man take thee at tile and lay it before thee and portray upon [35:32] it the city even Jerusalem and lay Siege against it and build a fort against it [35:37] and cast a mount against it set right so he had to take a tow right the think of [35:43] like a square you know what I'm saying block he had to take that that block and then he had to try to write an image to [35:50] have it portray that it's our City Jerusalem right then after that he had [35:56] the he had the to kind of take little artifacts and then make it look like it lays a it was laying Siege against [36:02] Jerusalem so he pretty much had to had to you ever you know what I'm saying in school y'all gonna see that y'all gotta you ever put together like a poster [36:07] board or something like that a poster board you did a doing a poster board sometimes you gota you know [36:13] I'm saying get fine stuff and you gotta you know I'm saying kind of staple it on there or whatever or glue it on there or [36:19] Draw It little [36:25] sign I don't care nothing about the pet I'm talking about the darn poster board you know what I'm saying so you got a poster [36:31] board you put it on there and you you depict you portraying something right so in the same way this is what Ezekiel had [36:38] to do he had to put the he had to get the tile he had to betray the city and that it's being besiege you know what [36:43] besiege mean besiege mean that you ever seen imagine you got big old walls right [36:49] you got a city and you got big old walls on the city but I want to break down your walls and I want to get you I want [36:55] to get everybody in your city and I want y to surrender to me right so what I'mma do is I'mma take I'mma take some large [37:02] artif I mean some large uh machinery and I'mma Ram it up against your walls until your walls break and I'mma set your [37:08] walls on fire shooting Bear bow and arrows over your walls and so I'mma surround your whole city and all your [37:14] walls and I'mma keep hitting your walls until they break down but while I'm doing that I'm not letting anything go [37:22] in or anything come out so if you try to come out of your city I'm either kill you or take you captive and if anybody [37:28] tries to come in and deliver y'all cuz everybody got to eat right so that means that somebody got to go outside of the [37:34] city and go hunt or go get water or go get supplies or go get whatever right so [37:40] I'mma make sure that nobody can bring in supplies or or money or food or anything [37:46] from outside the city I'mma stop it you'll see you coming in like no no no I kill your butt you better get back right [37:52] so I prevent everything from coming in everything from going out what's going to happen to the people in on the [38:03] inside that's right they're not gonna be able to eat or drink nothing So eventually they gonna run out of food [38:09] and eventually they gonna run out of uh water and when that happens what [38:14] happens people gonna start dying but what you gonna do before you die yeah that's exactly what happens a [38:21] lot of times in the book but before that happened what might you do [38:28] no you might give up you might be like no no no no all right man you got it we give up go ahead take me you know what [38:35] I'm saying just give me some food right because a lot of time we not trying to kill Nebuchadnezzar wasn't trying to [38:41] kill everybody Nebuchadnezzar was trying to get people to give up and then come to his nation and serve him right so he [38:48] looking at it like I'mma kill all y'all if y'all don't give up but if y'all give up it's over you know what I'm saying it [38:53] ain't you know what I'm saying we ain't even got to we ain't got to keep doing this it's over if y'all give up up that's what they were dealing with right they dealing with they dealing with the [38:59] fact that Nebuchadnezzar was besieging the whole land so now this is what Ezekiel had to portray because this [39:06] hasn't happened yet it well it happened but the instance that Ezekiel is trying to portray hasn't happened yet so [39:12] Ezekiel had to draw a picture little poster board to try to portray that so when people look at it be like oh that [39:17] look like Jerusalem being besieged right now watch what he have to do with it keep going moreover take thou thee unto [39:24] thee an iron pan and set it for a wall of iron between thee and the city and so [39:30] you took the city you portray it and then you take a iron pan and you put it [39:36] and that iron pan represents the wall to the city watch this set thy face against it and it [39:43] shall be besieged and thou shalt lay Siege against it thus shall assign to the house of Israel thus this shall be [39:49] assigned to the house of Israel lie thou also upon thy left side and lay the iniquity of the House of Israel upon on [39:56] it ACC right so he said lie thou also upon thy what left side thy left side [40:04] which side is that don't none of y'all know y'all [40:09] learn left and right goodness gracious it's gonna be this side right so now listen he had this tile it [40:17] depicted Jerusalem he got the the the pan right the metal pan and that [40:23] represents the wall and he said set your face against this so he had has to put his face against it in other words he [40:29] got to look flat at it and that represents the most High's God face be being against us right then he said that [40:35] is the besiege then he said lay on your left side so Ezekiel this is a man he [40:40] had he outside in captivity he had to lay down on his left side right so he [40:46] laying on the ground on his left side like this you know what I'm saying just comfortable like that then he got the [40:52] towel he holding that up he got the pan holding that up and he setting his face against it like this right that's the [40:58] picture this a this a grown man laying on the on the ground on his side holding [41:03] all his stuff up with holding little poster board in the pan up right keep going watch this I want y just like that [41:10] and lay iniquity of the House of Israel upon it according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it Thou [41:16] shalt bear their iniquity for I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity according to the [41:21] number of the days90 days so that thou bear 390 days he had to lay right there on [41:29] this side how long is 390 days how long is a [41:39] year this year is a what according to these people they call [41:46] it a leap year right so in a leap year they say 366 days according to their [41:52] year right they do that cu the most high gu added a day to the year you know what I'm talking about you know what I'm [41:57] saying you got now you got to do you got to figure it out you have to make that thing right but you know what I'm saying they call this the leap year right but [42:04] it's 365 days in this in these people year right so if you got 360 days or 365 [42:12] days or 64 days however you want to reckon it right he did that and some [42:18] because he had to do 300 what 390 days so imagine laying on your side for 300 [42:26] 90 day for a year straight you have to lay on your side you know why because [42:31] God told you to and why did God told you that tell you that just so you can make a representation to the people of what's [42:38] about to happen to them so now you got to imagine what it's like you landay on your side because it ain't like it's it [42:43] ain't like it ain't like you in the middle of Time Square and everybody saying hey look at Ezekiel no you [42:49] probably you in captivity so you probably like just on the side of a you know what I'm saying on the street and somebody walking past you and they [42:55] looking at you how they gonna look at you like this guy's a bum but he had to every day lay on his [43:03] side for 390 days his left side 390 days watch [43:08] this keep going when thou has accomplish them lie again on thy right side and [43:14] thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah 40 days right so he said after you done laying on your left side [43:20] for 390 days do another 40 Days on your right side right so it's well over a year [43:28] almost a year and a half this boy sitting down this man is sitting down and he got to lay on his sides right so [43:33] he had to do 40 Days for uh Jerusalem keep going I have appointed thee each [43:39] day for a year therefore Thou shalt set thy face toward The Siege of Jerusalem [43:45] and thine arm shall be uncovered and thou shalt prophesy against it and behold I will lay bands upon thee Thou [43:52] shalt not turn thee from one side to another till thou has entered ended the days of thy Siege take there also unto [44:00] thee wheat and barley and beans and lentils and Millet and fitches and put [44:05] them in one vessel and make thee bread thereof according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon thy side [44:11] 390 days shalt thou eat thereof and thy meat which Thou shalt eat shall be by [44:17] weight 20 shekels a day from time to the time shalt thou eat it Thou shalt drink [44:22] also Water by measure the sixth part of a hen from time Town shall you drink and thou shalt eat it as barley cakes and [44:30] thou shalt bake it with dung that comes out of man in their sight right so now [44:36] he told them not only are you laying on your side and not only are you doing it for 390 days then following that up with [44:42] 40 days on your right hand side right but on top of that I want you to take [44:48] lenos and beans and all this different stuff you got to crush this stuff up and make a bread out of it right and and [44:56] then after you make that bread you got to eat it little by little right little by little and then you get you a little [45:02] bit of water and you got to drink it little by little right because that represents what it's like in a sieg [45:08] right when you in the middle of the seed you can't just eat whatever you want everybody got a ration because it's like ain't no food going out ain't nothing [45:14] going out and ain't no food coming in ain't nobody gonna help us so now whatever we got here we got to make it [45:20] small pieces so that everybody can survive on it as long as possible until we buy us some time so that's what now [45:26] he got to do he got to eat it little by little and got to drink little by little right but then he said to cook the bread [45:32] guess how you have to cook it why are everybody walking around what y'all got going on right he said why every why he said [45:39] he said he said listen what you got to do to cook this bread is you got to put it you got to cook it with what what did [45:45] he just say you shall bake it with dung that comes out of man in their sight man's [45:51] poop that's how you got to cook so you got to light man's poop on fire and [45:57] that's how you got to cook it that's the that's the you know like I use coals when I'm when I'm cooking you know what I'm saying I put the coals in there like [46:03] them things up you know what I'm saying then I put some over the Hot Grill now imagine that except it's man's poop [46:10] instead of Coal's and you put it in there watch what Ezekiel say and the Lord said even thus shall the children [46:17] of Israel eat their defiled bread among the Gentiles where I will drive [46:23] them then said I oh Lord God behold my soul has not been polluted for from my [46:30] youth up even until now have I not eaten of that which dieth of itself or is torn [46:36] in pieces neither came there abominable flesh into my mouth right so he said [46:41] listen Yahweh give me a little break now I ain't never ate nothing un clean he [46:46] said look I've never ate nothing that died of itself right or that was torn in [46:52] other words I never ate like an animal that it died without me sacrificing it [46:57] or without me killing it myself right he just walk out and he see a dead animal he like no that's against my law I can't [47:03] eat that we can't eat nothing we can't eat nothing that we just walk out and we find it already dead we got to see how [47:08] it dies for us to for us to eat it right so he said I never ate nothing unlawful [47:14] nor have I ate abominable I ain't never ate no pork no darn shrimp he saiding I've never ate none of this stuff I have [47:20] not been polluted so he begging he like man I got I lay on my left side for 390 days now [47:26] I lay on my on my right side for 40 days I eat the little nasty bread but you [47:32] can't make me cook it with man's poo that that'll defil me I've never done [47:37] this remember Ezekiel is a priest he like man I ain't never you know what I'm saying I ain't never done nothing like this so why the most high God say to him [47:44] then he said unto me lo I have given thee cow's dung for man's dung and thou shalt prepare thy bread there withth [47:51] right so he said okay instead of man's poop use cow poop instead you know what I'm saying I'll give you a break use cow [47:58] poop instead right keep going watch this moreover he said unto me son of man [48:04] behold I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem and they shall eat bread by weight and with care and they shall [48:09] drink water by measure and with astonishment that they may want bread and water and be astonished one with [48:16] another and consume away for their iniquity and thou brother [48:24] iniquity [48:31] and thou son of man take the a sharp knife take thee a Barber's razor and cause it to pass upon thy head and upon [48:38] thy beard then take what chapter is this five okay so now we're going into [48:44] chapter five he said take you a sharp knife right and let it pass upon your [48:50] head and your beard this Ezekiel I just laid down for a year and a half you know [48:56] what I'm talking about eating bull crap literally you know what I'm talking about sitting here eating this stuff I [49:02] laid down for a year and a half I get up most high God say good job boy now take a razor you know what I'm saying go [49:09] ahead and shave your head and your beard if somebody asked me to shave my beard you know how distraught I would be there [49:16] Ezekiel looking like go again he look like go ahead shave it go ahead get you [49:21] a razor watch what he have to do then take the balances to we and divide [49:29] the hair Thou shalt burn with fire a third part in the midst of the city when the days of The Siege are fulfilled and [49:35] thou shalt take a third part and smite about it with a knife and a third part Thou shalt scatter in the wind and I [49:41] will dry out a sword after them right so he said look you shave your hair bundle [49:46] it up right you got all your hair you got it all in one bundle then he said Put it on the weight get a weight and [49:52] you weigh it it's like okay it weigh two pounds or whatever whatever it way right cuz he got some you know what I'm saying [49:57] so way you know what I'm saying weigh some way then he said okay divide that into three you take it and you divide it [50:03] in three equal parts okay that weighs the same as that one that weighs okay so they all weigh the same thing cool right [50:10] after we find out they all weigh the same thing most high God say okay now take the first one burn it in fire this [50:15] his hair he just cut off burn that thing in fire the first the first three of them burn the first one in fire right [50:21] okay you burn it in fire you know what that represent the hair represent the people Israel right he said that we was [50:28] going to get burnt up in fire so that's what happened that's what's going to end up happening to our people right A lot [50:33] of them gonna get burnt up in fire our land is gonna get burnt up and all that so he said burn them in fire what was the next [50:40] one he said grab a knife when the days and thou shalt take a third part and [50:46] smite about it with a knife right so you take a knife he said you smite about it with a knife in other words he's saying [50:51] do like this but he already shaved it off he got the bundle of hair just like this then you said just start chopping [50:57] it up you know what I'm saying start chopping it up that knife you know what I'm saying I like to believe you know what I'm saying you ever seen like a chef you know what I'm saying take the [51:03] thing he do all that I like to believe he put it down on something and he just just chopping it on up right so then he [51:10] chopping it up what does that represent that represents Us in Wartime right the Babylonians gonna come and [51:16] they gonna chop us up right they gonna kill us right everybody who don't get their self over they gonna kill us then [51:23] the next the next section right so the first one was fire the second one was the knife the third one was what the [51:29] third part Thou shalt scatter in the wind we gonna take this and we G to scatter it in the [51:35] wind right this gets scattered in the wind what does that [51:41] represent us running away not quite right there it it it's us trying to [51:48] escape right all the other things so it's some people that's going to get that that you know saying they going to [51:53] think they escaping and then they going to be be chased also right watch this ke he going to tell [52:00] you and Scatter in the wind and I will draw out a sword after them hey look you [52:05] thought you got a away huh I'mma pull a sword out after you so you always on the run or you getting killed right keep [52:11] going watch this Thou shalt also take thereof a few in number and bind them in [52:16] thy skirts so now of all these different groups you take just a couple hairs you [52:21] know what I'm saying maybe some hair get stuck on your hand or something you know what I'm saying you know you got hair and it get stuck on your hand sometime [52:27] you get hair and it get stuck in your mouth and you like you know what I'm saying so you got you got this hair kind of stuck he said [52:33] just a couple a few in number he said then put them in your belt just hide them in your belt right what does that [52:39] mean Ezekiel let's [52:45] see and bind them in thy skirts then take of them again and cast them into the midst of the fire and burn them in [52:52] the fire for thereof shall a fire come forth into the house of is Israel all right so he said even the [52:58] ones that thought they were going to make it they was hidden like oh we made it he said then take those and then burn [53:04] them in the fire right so he's showing you ain't [53:09] nobody going you gonna have people that's on the Run that's the only ones that's goingon to make it the ones that [53:15] got scattered they on the run but you making it under dur you constantly running for your life trying to escape [53:22] these people that's trying to get you right keep going [53:34] then take of them again and cast them into the midst of the fire and burn them in the fire for thereof shall a fire [53:39] come forth out out of into the all the house of Israel thus says the Lord God this is Jerusalem I have set it in the [53:45] midst of the Nations and countries that are round about her and she has changed my into wickedness more than the nation [53:53] my statutes more than the countries that are about her for they have refused my judgments and my statutes they have not [54:00] walked in them therefore thus says the Lord God because you multiplied more than the Nations that about you and have [54:07] not my statutes my judgments neither have done to the judgments of Nations that are [54:13] about round about you therefore thus says the Lord God behold I even I am against thee and will execute judgments [54:19] on the midst of thee in the sight of the Nations and I will do in thee that which I have not done [54:25] and where unto I will not do any more the like because all thine Abominations [54:31] therefore the father shall eat the son in the midst of thee and the sons shall eat their fathers and I will execute [54:36] judgments in thee and the whole remnant of thee will I scatter into the winds he said the whole remnant of thee in other [54:44] words whoever doesn't die when he say Remnant he saiding whoever survives and doesn't die I'mma scatter thee to the [54:50] winds in other words that's the people that he scattered to the winds that means a sword com after somebody's [54:56] chasing them so you scattered but you ain't just free somebody chasing you somebody always after you you always feel like somebody after you keep going [55:04] wherefore excuse me wherefore as I live says Yahweh God surely because thou [55:10] defiled My Sanctuary with all thy detestable things with all thine Abominations therefore will I also [55:15] diminish thee neither shall my ey spare neither will I have any [55:21] pity the third part of thee shall die with the pestilence with famine and shall they be consumed in the midst of [55:28] thee and the third part of heart shall fall by the sword round about thee and I will scatter a third part into the winds [55:34] and I will draw a sword after them thus my anger be accomplished and I will cause my Fury to rest upon them and I [55:41] will be comforted and they shall know that I am Yahweh I Yahweh have spoken it [55:46] in my Zeal when I have accomplished my Fury in [55:52] them moreover I will make the we and and a reproach among the Nations that are [55:58] round about thee in the sight of all that pass by so it shall be a repo reproach in a taunt an in instruction [56:05] and an astonishment unto the Nations that are round about thee when I shall execute [56:11] judgments in thee in anger and INF Fury and INF Furious rebukes I Yahweh have spoken it and I shall send upon them the [56:18] evil arrows of famine which shall be for their destruction and which I will send to destroy you and I will in Pras the [56:25] famine upon you and will break your staff of bread so will I send upon you famine and evil beasts and they shall [56:32] beve thee and the pestilence and blood shall pass through thee and I will bring [56:37] the sword upon thee I Yahweh have spoken [56:45] it that's the end of the chapter yeah grab uh Jeremiah give me Jeremiah [56:51] chapter 24 [56:59] all right so that's the prophecy that that was given to Ezekiel saying that listen it's about to be real tight right [57:07] he's prophesying what's about to happen to Jerusalem so we got a listen to Ezekiel remember uh Jeremiah sent the [57:14] prophecy out to the people like yo read this letter for him look get comfortable over there you know what I'm saying it's [57:19] going to be all right because remember the ones who got taken into captivity that was the blessing if you get taken [57:24] into captivity most high God say I'mma look out for you and I'm going bring you back I'mma bring the people back if you [57:30] try to reject uh captivity those are the ones that Ezekiel is talking to but notice how Jeremiah is in the land with [57:37] the people that's rejecting captivity and he's talking to the people that are not in the land right he talking to the [57:45] he send the letter to the ones that's in captivity that accepted the Captivity that are being blessed right then you [57:51] got Ezekiel who's in captivity and he prophesying against the people who didn't go into captivity because they [57:58] rejected it and they about to be destroyed right so just notice the difference of the two right keep going [58:05] or go uh give me uh Jeremiah chapter 24 verse [58:12] one the Lord showed me and behold two baskets of figs were set before the Temple of Yahweh after Nebuchadnezzar [58:19] King of Babylon carried away captive jeah the son of jeim King of Judah and [58:25] the princes of Judah with the Carpenters The Smiths and from jerus Jerusalem and had brought them unto Babylon one basket [58:33] had very good figs even like the figs that are first ripe and the other basket had very naughty figs which could not be [58:39] eaten they were so bad right so figs figs is like a fruit right it's a fruit [58:45] so he says one with good fruit one with bad fruit right keep [58:51] going then said the Lord to me what seest thou and figs the good fig good [59:00] and and the evil they evil that cannot be eaten they are so evil right so the ones he calling evil figs are the bad [59:07] ones right you can't even eat these things they poisonous they M around make you sick keep going again the word of [59:13] the Lord came unto me saying thus says the Lord the god of Israel like these good figs so will I acknowledge them [59:19] that are carried away captive of Judah whom I sent out of this place into the land of the calans for their good [59:25] right so the people that got the people that got carried away captive the most high God sees those as good figs that's [59:32] why Jeremiah wrote that letter to him right so the people that Ezekiel is [59:37] talking about the ones that's getting bundled up and they like to haar and they getting chopped up he's not talking about the ones that went into captivity [59:44] he's talking about all the people who stayed and rejected it right keep going watch this for I will set my eyes upon [59:50] them for good and will bring them again to this land and I will build them and not pull them down and I will plant them [59:56] and not pluck them up and I will give them a heart to know me that I am Yahweh and they shall be my people and I will [60:01] be their God for they shall unto me he's telling them about the New Covenant so [60:06] the same the same promise that comes from us by uh accepting the word of [60:12] yahushua he's offering that same thing to those who who accepted the Captivity of [60:18] Nebuchadnezzar y'all have to understand who Nebuchadnezzar represented Nebuchadnezzar represented yahua [60:25] right yahua had not come yet the most high God made Nebuchadnezzar King of [60:31] Kings so now no Nebuchadnezzar didn't think he was bringing the gospel he wasn't talking directly to God that's [60:38] not what I'm saying right but he positioned Nebuchadnezzar that if you [60:43] make yourself subserving to him in faith of yah I mean in the faith of yah if you [60:49] do that then he would bless you and now he's offering the promises of the New Covenant read it again watch this and I [60:56] will give them a heart to know me that he said I will give them a heart to know me right we haven't read it yet but if [61:02] we go to Jeremiah chapter 31 that's exactly what the New Covenant promise is [61:07] right keep going I am the Lord and they shall be my people and I will be their God for they shall return unto me with [61:14] their whole heart and as the evil figs which cannot [61:19] be eaten they are so evil surely thus says Yahweh so will I give I want y'all to understand what what what what I'm [61:26] saying so like the the people that went into captivity willingly be in in in [61:33] observance of what the most high God was saying through the Prophet Jeremiah and the other prophets the people that gay their self to to Nebuchadnezzar those [61:40] are the ones that are going to enter into the Kingdom right those are the ones that [61:45] they gon to die and they gonna be resurrected by yahushua just at the same way as those who who who accepted [61:51] yahushua and Obey yahushua's Commandments this is the a version of what that looks like before yahua is [61:57] alive right then you got the the people that didn't go right and it's a lot of [62:03] people that look at oh why why was the macbes taken out of the Bible and all that understand the story We G we going [62:10] to talk a little bit we y'all willing we gonna talk a little bit about the mbes and all the all the books that's not in [62:15] the Bible but you look at macbes and Tobit and all these different books these are people that didn't [62:23] go right right these are people Tobit is a little you know earlier time frame but [62:28] these are people that didn't go right Tobit went into into captivity in the [62:34] Assyrian captivity you remember if y'all remember when we was reading about the Assyrian captivity all the people of nor [62:41] of the northern tribes were offered an option by God didn't they he told them you can stay here and go into captivity [62:47] or you can go into Judah right and the ones who didn't go [62:53] into Judah Judah are the ones who went into captivity all these people that go into captivity are are are uh in this in [63:01] this situation now the most high God told you if you go into captivity you'll be good right don't stay in [63:09] Judah now you got people to decide to stay in Judah right so when we talk a little bit about the mccabes we'll see what what [63:16] what what type of figs they were and then we say okay when they document if if the most high God call somebody bad [63:22] figs should I be looking at they book like it's the gospel that don't make sense to me I I look at it like it's [63:29] history right but everything you did was in rebellion of the most high God keep going it's all right we'll get to it so [63:36] will I give zedekiah the king of Judah and his princes and the residue of Jerusalem that remain in this land and [63:43] them that dwell in the land of Egypt I will deliver them to be removed into all the kingdoms of the Earth for their hurt [63:49] to be a reproach and a proverb a taunt and a curse in all places where I shall drive them and I will send the sword and [63:56] I will send the sword the famine and the pestilence among them till they be consumed from off the land that I give [64:01] unto them and to their fathers right so that's the exact same thing that Ezekiel just [64:06] prophesied right but you see that Jeremiah is applying that to the bag figs to the evil figs right which is the [64:13] people who decided to stay in Judah when the most high God said go ahead and go in go ahead go serve uh Nebuchadnezzar [64:19] if you want to live right keep going is that the end yeah all right so I think I [64:25] think we'll we'll pick it up next week and we'll keep reading in Jeremiah we'll pick it up at Jeremiah chapter 6 and uh [64:31] kind of read through S Jeremiah has a lot right there's a lot that we have to get through but we have to kind of build [64:37] this up until we get to the point where the SE there's a lot of Prophecy in [64:43] between um we if we look on here it's a lot of Prophecy in between here and [64:51] here right a ton of Prophecy happening in between here between these two right [64:58] Daniel to but it's not a ton of Prophecy from Daniel but between the Ezekiel and [65:04] um and Jeremiah a lot of the prophecy of they book come right here like I know [65:09] they life it spans right here but all they talking was right here you know what I'm saying the mass majority of [65:15] they talking was about this time period right here so we going we GNA spend a lot of time here just kind of going [65:22] through all the different prophecy that they they set forth in front of all the people to give them a chance to turn to [65:28] give them a chance to obey to give them a chance to submit and a lot of times you'll see that people did not continue [65:34] to be rebellious right and that's something that we have to keep in mind for ourselves we got to make sure that it's in our mind to turn away from sin [65:42] it's in our mind to Humble ourselves before the most high God no matter what people think of us no matter what it [65:48] look like no matter what it feels like we have to be able to Humble ourselves and put God first right and if you learn [65:54] to put God first with the little things you know what I'm saying with things that you think are insignificant things [66:00] that don't really matter it makes it easier to put God first when the big thing come all of us in our mind we in [66:07] our mind it's simple if somebody hold a gun in your hand and say hey say a cuss word and disrespect God curse God right [66:14] now you know what I'm saying somebody put a gun in your head Curse God right now or I kill you in our mind that's a [66:20] simple decision right because it's obvious right it's like in now it's really not [66:26] as simple as you think it is right but in your mind it is in your mind like man I never I rather take the bullet than to [66:33] curse God that's what we say to ourselves right but in reality if you [66:38] haven't built yourself up mentally to even make the smallest decision like that trust me you will find some way to [66:45] get yourself out of that situation before even thinking about serving God right you have to you have to take the [66:52] very small small small small small examples of how do I put God first with this I'm at school I'm at work right I'm [67:00] I'm with my family I'm doing this how do I put God first in the things that I do [67:06] and then let me see how I deal when it come game time most high God ain't he ain't gonna put you in no situation like [67:11] that when he know you you you you put you put him last in every other situation in your life you think he gonna give you the glory to look like oh [67:18] look you some martyr you know what I'm saying you put God first and everybody gonna respect you like she is about to die for that thing he is about to die [67:24] for that thing right he ain't about to put you in that situation he going let you die at normal darn death and go [67:29] right to hell because you've been putting them last in everything you do right but it's the on if we put them [67:34] first in these little things and just the little things that's when the most high God that exalt you be like yeah he [67:41] proved it how you think it work with Abraham yeah you don't remember Abraham [67:48] first thing he told Abraham he was like yo yo yo go ahead get out of the land with your family you know I mean why don't you uh split off go to the land of [67:55] Canaan right Abraham did it then after Abraham did that he gave him a little more like all right for sure look you [68:01] know I'm saying like uh why don't you uh what do you tell him next he uh oh him and lot got into it you know what I'm [68:08] saying he separated from lot you remember he told him separate from your family right and he brought lot with him [68:15] then all of a sudden him and lot you know what I'm saying they people start fighting he told lot he like you know what I'm saying why don't you you know I'm saying take whatever part you want [68:21] soon as the most soon as he got away from the most high God most high God started talking to Abraham like yo yo yo look all this land I'mma give it to you [68:29] right when he separated from lot right then after that you know what I'm saying he told him listen you know [68:35] what I'm saying I'm G makeing you a great nation Abraham believed him he accounted to him [68:41] righteousness right and it just keep going it keep going but that happened with all the men of God you got to obey [68:47] in the small little thing once you do that most high God looking at you like all right then it gets to the point [68:53] where they bring he said should I share with him what I'mma do to Sodom and gomorra I'm going go ahead and share [68:59] with him because I already know He G to tell his people exactly what they need to do according to [69:04] me he already know it because he's already shown a record of obedience to the most high God that's that has to be [69:11] our mindset we got to put God first with all the little thing man everything you sacrifice for God just know it's coming [69:18] back sometimes it come back in this life I tell my wife all the time like man we don't have what we have we don't enjoy [69:24] the peace that we have we don't we don't we don't we don't we don't enjoy some of these Pleasures that we enjoy in this [69:30] life andless we didn't sacrifice right we constantly look for ways to sacrifice [69:36] for the most high God constantly sacrifice family time sacrifice [69:41] sacrifice uh money sacrifice whatever it is we constantly are looking to do that [69:47] and sometimes it get tough and sometimes it get hard sometimes it cause an argument and all that and we got to remind each other that you know you know [69:53] what this is what we doing it for right cuz that's what the most high [69:59] God blessed and it ain't got to be big it's the little stuff that we looking [70:04] for it's the little stuff y'all got to do when y'all sitting around at school y'all sitting around you know what I'm saying playing around with your friends [70:10] and all that stuff look for the opportunities there you know what I'm saying with hard in this basketball [70:16] games of practicing and all this stuff that's when you got to look for the [70:21] opportunities in the time where you think no nobody watching nobody doing nothing put God first you put God first [70:27] in them little situations you'll see you know what I'm saying you'll see can't nobody mess with you people G have to [70:35] respect you differently you know what I'm saying they ain't gonna think you cool they ain't G they ain't gonna invite you to the parties ain't gonna do [70:41] all this stuff and the club I don't get invited none of my listen we used to be party party that's all we used to do at party party I my friends don't invite me [70:48] into none of that stuff that's cool though guess what every one of them do though they all respect [70:54] me they all got a different L level of honor and respect and I respect them and honor them even though we live a totally [71:01] different life but they all got a different level of respect and honor for me right and that's all we want we want [71:08] honor from the most high God the most high God gonna make everybody else honor us that's how it [71:13] work all right all right let's pray [71:19] out oh well first any questions you got any questions online you know y about to pray out right on the people online I'll [71:26] be getting in trouble for that type of [71:36] stuff no questions oh we got one in Jeremiah [71:43] 296 was he telling Israel to interent migle and marry the cap the people no [71:49] they didn't no he didn't say that he didn't say let's go back to it this is uh this is uh Jeremiah [71:55] 296 let's read exactly what he's saying this Jeremiah chapter 29 let's go [72:02] back to uh let's start at ver actually verse one this Jeremiah chapter 29 verse [72:12] one yeah he didn't tell him to go intermedial with the Babylonians he didn't say not to either though right [72:18] but let's let's just be clear about exactly what he said so that you know the people are try to twist it people [72:23] try to twist it both ways right I don't want to twist nothing I want to look at exactly what it [72:32] say I'm scratching my couch boy it's Jeremiah chapter 29 verse one [72:39] watch the book say now these are the words of the [72:46] letter that Jeremiah the prophet sent from Jerusalem unto the residue of the elders which were carried away captive to the pre and and to the priest the [72:54] prophets and the people whom NE Nebuchadnezzar carried away captive from Jerusalem to Babylon after Janiah the [72:59] king and the queen and the Unix and the princes of Judah and Jerusalem and all the [73:05] Carpenters and Smiths were departed from Jerusalem by the hand of Elsa the son of shaan and gamariah the son of hilaya [73:13] whom zedekiah king of Judah sent into unto Babylon to Nebuchadnezzar King of Babylon saying thus says the Lord of [73:19] hosts God of Israel unto all they that are carried away captive whom I have called to be carried away from Jerusalem [73:25] unto Babylon build ye houses and dwell in them plant said build ye houses and [73:30] dwell in them watch this plant Gardens and eat the fruit of them he said plant [73:36] Gardens and then eat the fruit of them take ye wives and beget Sons and Daughters right he said take wives and [73:44] beget sons and daughters and take wives of your sons and give your daughters to [73:49] husbands right and then make sure your daughters and your your your sons get married at no point did he say who they [73:57] marrying or who they can't marry and who they can marry that's not what this was about it was just telling them to get [74:03] comfortable in the land so he's not telling them go marry a Babylonian and he's not telling them don't marry of B [74:09] Babylonian he's simply saying go over there and uh get comfortable into the [74:15] land right so we wouldn't go here to learn about who they can and came Mar [74:22] and there's a lot of people that do try to use this for both purposes to say oh you can marry Gentile because he said [74:28] here that's not what he said he did not tell you to marry Gentiles here right and he didn't tell you you can't marry [74:34] Gentiles here our law sets up that law for us what is it uh we don't have to get it right now but I think it's [74:39] Deuteronomy 24 if I'm not mistaken or 23 yeah we Deuteronomy 23 it'll tell you [74:46] who we can who we can marry yeah you know what I'm saying the time frames around who we can marry right and then [74:51] we have multiple places where it told does never marry the can Canaanites right like the moabites I think it's [74:57] like 10 generations and you know what I'm saying ammonites 10 Generations I think it's three generations for the [75:03] Egyptian you know what I'm saying but you know what I'm saying the the the Canaanites you know what I'm saying the [75:09] amorites you can't ever marry them you know what I'm saying that thing is a law forever for us you know what I'm saying [75:16] so you ever find out you dealing with a Canaanite that got that you know what I'm saying you got you know what saying you know I mean that thing got that [75:24] I hope that answ the question we got any more [75:44] questions all right well let's go ahead and pray out [75:51] then
