233: Mike Steele – Exhortation: The Pages Of Our Lives

1
00:00:13,900 –> 00:00:15,600
Welcome to Good Burger selfie
and talks.

2
00:00:15,600 –> 00:00:19,300
I’m Levi and I’m Chris and I’m
Brian, thank you for joining us

3
00:00:19,300 –> 00:00:21,900
this week.
On this podcast, we select one

4
00:00:21,900 –> 00:00:26,400
taco week to help us get the
Bible in our daily news feed.

5
00:00:26,500 –> 00:00:29,300
We post a new episode of the
start of each week with a short

6
00:00:29,300 –> 00:00:31,400
intro before.
Hand to kind of set the stage

7
00:00:31,400 –> 00:00:33,600
for the talk.
You’re about to listen to and

8
00:00:33,600 –> 00:00:36,300
now let’s talk more about this
week’s talk.

9
00:00:51,300 –> 00:00:53,700
Welcome to the good
christadelphians talks podcast.

10
00:00:54,100 –> 00:00:57,000
This is brother Brian.
This week’s talk is an

11
00:00:57,000 –> 00:01:00,400
excitation by brother Mike’s
steel that was sent in by

12
00:01:00,400 –> 00:01:05,099
recommendation last year.
The eggs art is called the pages

13
00:01:05,099 –> 00:01:08,200
of Our Lives.
And the focus of brother Mike’s

14
00:01:08,600 –> 00:01:13,600
exhortation is about how if you
examined our day-to-day lives

15
00:01:13,600 –> 00:01:18,200
and thought of them as like a
diary entry or as in scriptures,

16
00:01:18,500 –> 00:01:23,500
how the narratives of certain
characters play out, some pages

17
00:01:23,500 –> 00:01:27,200
are filled with joy and
accomplishments and praise for

18
00:01:27,200 –> 00:01:29,600
the Lord.
And other times, we are at our

19
00:01:29,600 –> 00:01:37,500
lowest, or our most lost point,
and it’s times like those That

20
00:01:37,500 –> 00:01:40,600
you so desperately.
Wish you could turn the page and

21
00:01:40,600 –> 00:01:42,500
be done with it.
Be done with whatever trial

22
00:01:42,500 –> 00:01:45,400
you’re going through, whatever
circumstance you’re being made

23
00:01:45,400 –> 00:01:50,600
to feel miserable by.
Brother, Mike looks at the

24
00:01:50,600 –> 00:01:58,300
stories of Joseph David and our
lord Jesus and examines how in

25
00:01:58,300 –> 00:02:01,600
his opinion, what were their
lowest moments?

26
00:02:01,600 –> 00:02:07,000
The worst pages.
And how quickly by God’s hand

27
00:02:07,400 –> 00:02:11,300
their circumstances changed.
And in most cases it was within

28
00:02:11,300 –> 00:02:15,600
a page or two that there have
been completely elevated.

29
00:02:17,800 –> 00:02:21,100
And the lesson to us is that no
matter what you’re going through

30
00:02:21,100 –> 00:02:26,300
at the moment.
With God, things can change

31
00:02:26,300 –> 00:02:29,100
fast.
It is, of course, always our

32
00:02:29,100 –> 00:02:32,400
hope that the Lord Jesus Christ
returns as soon as possible and

33
00:02:32,400 –> 00:02:35,900
that we are preparing ourselves
to be his servants, to be his

34
00:02:35,900 –> 00:02:40,400
workers in the Kingdom.
But there is an acknowledgement

35
00:02:40,400 –> 00:02:43,400
that sometimes, it feels like
the page that we are stuck on.

36
00:02:43,900 –> 00:02:50,900
It’s just never going to turn
and we wish that this trial can

37
00:02:50,900 –> 00:02:57,500
be relieved from us.
But has brother Mike reminds us.

38
00:02:59,300 –> 00:03:04,600
The hope that we all have.
Is that the Lord Jesus will

39
00:03:04,600 –> 00:03:08,400
return?
And that will have the same

40
00:03:08,400 –> 00:03:11,100
ending, no matter what story
were writing at the moment.

41
00:03:12,900 –> 00:03:22,500
And that is entering into the
joy of his kingdom. so, No

42
00:03:22,500 –> 00:03:23,600
matter what you’re going
through.

43
00:03:25,500 –> 00:03:29,000
We hope that this strengthens
your faith and brightens your

44
00:03:29,000 –> 00:03:32,900
day.
And that this page will turn.

45
00:03:34,400 –> 00:03:37,500
Brother, Mike steal the pages of
Our Lives.

46
00:03:39,000 –> 00:03:40,700
Thank you brother Evan and good
morning.

47
00:03:40,700 –> 00:03:42,500
My dear brothers and sisters in
our Lord.

48
00:03:42,500 –> 00:03:44,900
Jesus Christ and our D young
people.

49
00:03:44,900 –> 00:03:46,600
Wow.
It’s great to see so many young

50
00:03:46,600 –> 00:03:49,400
people be terrific.
Absolutely.

51
00:03:50,800 –> 00:03:52,600
It’s been a few years since I’ve
been here.

52
00:03:52,600 –> 00:03:55,700
I think on the platform or the
pre-code pretty servant probably

53
00:03:55,700 –> 00:03:58,500
would have been and a lot of
things have happened since then

54
00:03:58,500 –> 00:04:01,200
I’m sure you would agree.
This world is certainly

55
00:04:02,000 –> 00:04:06,300
certainly a fire now is that set
up a set on fire with all the

56
00:04:06,300 –> 00:04:10,500
events that are going on and
hopefully Totally out of control

57
00:04:10,500 –> 00:04:12,900
as far as the world is
concerned, but totally in

58
00:04:12,900 –> 00:04:16,200
control by God as as far as
we’re concerned.

59
00:04:16,500 –> 00:04:18,399
And what do you think about all
the things that have happened

60
00:04:18,600 –> 00:04:20,899
over the last few years?
I think over to probably have to

61
00:04:20,899 –> 00:04:22,700
be the number one world event,
wouldn’t it?

62
00:04:22,900 –> 00:04:25,700
And now I hear on the way here.
This morning, they might be

63
00:04:25,700 –> 00:04:29,100
bringing masks back in again
because we’re about to step

64
00:04:29,100 –> 00:04:31,800
right out of line with the
numbers that are going to be

65
00:04:31,800 –> 00:04:34,100
covid infection.
So that’s, that’s going to be

66
00:04:34,108 –> 00:04:35,500
interesting to see where we go
with that.

67
00:04:35,508 –> 00:04:38,100
Then, of course we had Russia,
invading Ukraine.

68
00:04:38,900 –> 00:04:42,000
That sort of kind of a bit of a
style might and we don’t ever

69
00:04:42,000 –> 00:04:43,500
underestimate poke out of
Russia.

70
00:04:43,500 –> 00:04:47,500
By the way, they will ensure
that this war of attrition will

71
00:04:47,500 –> 00:04:49,500
continue on the way they want it
to go.

72
00:04:49,900 –> 00:04:54,300
But that is certainly affected
the world everywhere including

73
00:04:54,300 –> 00:04:58,400
right here in this little state
of ours, and of Australian.

74
00:04:58,400 –> 00:05:01,400
We everything I’ve just whipping
Over America for three months.

75
00:05:01,400 –> 00:05:03,900
Only got back, not all that long
ago, and I’ll tell you why.

76
00:05:03,900 –> 00:05:08,300
It’s it’s America is really
feeling the pinch over there

77
00:05:08,300 –> 00:05:11,700
with all All manner of things
but they’re blaming Russia and

78
00:05:11,700 –> 00:05:15,500
China for everything and it’s
really quite amazing to see

79
00:05:15,500 –> 00:05:17,800
what’s going on over in that
that place.

80
00:05:18,300 –> 00:05:21,300
Then we got, you know, China
rattling the saber and they want

81
00:05:21,300 –> 00:05:26,800
to take Taiwan and that’s one of
the major objectives to achieve.

82
00:05:27,000 –> 00:05:29,600
We got North Korea, still
shooting missiles around the

83
00:05:29,600 –> 00:05:34,000
place, setting off soccer, and
as far away as Japan, we’ve got,

84
00:05:34,600 –> 00:05:37,300
we had the transition of
presidents in the United States

85
00:05:37,300 –> 00:05:40,500
of America, which is Pole The
role as the completely

86
00:05:40,800 –> 00:05:44,700
pulverized Americans.
So they when we go to, we were

87
00:05:44,700 –> 00:05:46,700
driving around quite a lot in
America.

88
00:05:46,700 –> 00:05:50,100
And when we got talking to the
general public they’re on the

89
00:05:50,100 –> 00:05:53,600
verge of a civil war over there.
That’s how serious it really is.

90
00:05:54,100 –> 00:05:58,900
Everything is totally out of
control in that area of of the

91
00:05:58,900 –> 00:06:02,900
world and and just recently in
the Middle East, the elections

92
00:06:03,300 –> 00:06:07,100
who told Bibby that Comeback Kid
Benjamin Netanyahu back in

93
00:06:07,100 –> 00:06:10,300
power.
You know, you sort of admire the

94
00:06:10,300 –> 00:06:14,100
man is a great orator, but there
is God’s putting back there for

95
00:06:14,100 –> 00:06:17,000
a specific reason, everything
that’s going on.

96
00:06:17,000 –> 00:06:18,600
In this world, we can’t keep up
with.

97
00:06:18,800 –> 00:06:21,100
I’ll guarantee you before the
end of the week, something else

98
00:06:21,100 –> 00:06:23,300
will crop up with all go.
Wow.

99
00:06:23,300 –> 00:06:26,500
The angels are flat-out trying
to bring God’s plan and purpose

100
00:06:26,600 –> 00:06:31,200
to its culmination of ready to
send his son back to this world.

101
00:06:31,700 –> 00:06:34,100
But as far as we’re concerned
brothers and sisters.

102
00:06:34,100 –> 00:06:36,100
It’s all about patience, isn’t
it?

103
00:06:36,100 –> 00:06:41,500
It’s just patiently.
Wait, Dean Whiting and patience

104
00:06:41,500 –> 00:06:44,800
is that word that we don’t
really like to use in our life

105
00:06:44,800 –> 00:06:47,400
because we live in a world where
everything is instant.

106
00:06:48,100 –> 00:06:51,600
We want things to happen now and
it’s affected all of us.

107
00:06:52,600 –> 00:06:55,300
Whereas our parents and
grandparents and maybe some of

108
00:06:55,300 –> 00:06:58,200
you.
Your great-grandparents patients

109
00:06:58,200 –> 00:07:02,600
was a part of life.
They learn to just wake quietly.

110
00:07:03,300 –> 00:07:05,900
The things to happen.
We want everything to happen

111
00:07:05,900 –> 00:07:08,700
straight away.
So we need to, we need to be

112
00:07:08,800 –> 00:07:11,900
Judging each other just to hang
on for that little bit longer

113
00:07:11,900 –> 00:07:15,400
because it’s not long to go.
Now and this, what I want to

114
00:07:15,400 –> 00:07:18,700
talk about this morning brothers
and sisters, I want to base our

115
00:07:18,900 –> 00:07:22,300
exultation on the comfort of
knowing that the Lord is

116
00:07:22,300 –> 00:07:25,000
returning but also just having
that little bit of patience,

117
00:07:25,000 –> 00:07:28,900
especially when difficult times
come in our life and they do, I

118
00:07:28,900 –> 00:07:32,800
don’t know your circumstances.
You don’t know mine and and we

119
00:07:32,800 –> 00:07:35,200
do know that difficult times do
comments.

120
00:07:35,200 –> 00:07:38,600
I’ve titled the x or the pages
of our or lat.

121
00:07:39,900 –> 00:07:43,000
Because if you really think
about it a lot as long as Fulk

122
00:07:43,500 –> 00:07:47,900
pocket diary and there’s an
entry good in every day of what

123
00:07:47,900 –> 00:07:50,700
we got up to and what we’ve
done, and really there is a

124
00:07:50,707 –> 00:07:52,800
diary kept about our life up in
heaven.

125
00:07:52,800 –> 00:07:56,700
It’s called book remembrance, by
the way, and and there is

126
00:07:56,700 –> 00:07:59,400
entries being put into that book
all the time.

127
00:07:59,600 –> 00:08:03,000
But in reality in our own life,
some of you may keep a diary

128
00:08:03,000 –> 00:08:08,200
most of us probably don’t.
But we do have these entries in

129
00:08:08,200 –> 00:08:10,900
our diary A about our life, and
let’s face it.

130
00:08:10,900 –> 00:08:14,200
Most times, they’re pretty
boring entries, it’s too bland

131
00:08:14,500 –> 00:08:17,000
day-to-day diary.
If you like, you know, get out,

132
00:08:17,000 –> 00:08:20,800
we go to work, come home, we go
to sleep, we get up, go to work,

133
00:08:20,800 –> 00:08:22,600
and it’s just repetitiveness,
isn’t that?

134
00:08:22,600 –> 00:08:25,000
Then we have the meetings on the
weekend and the boy have

135
00:08:25,000 –> 00:08:28,800
sharpened to cheer us along on
our way and and so on, but by

136
00:08:28,800 –> 00:08:32,900
and large things just continue
on at infinitum.

137
00:08:32,900 –> 00:08:35,900
But sometimes seems that way.
And that’s where the patient’s

138
00:08:35,900 –> 00:08:38,200
really needs to come in.
We’re waiting for that great day

139
00:08:38,200 –> 00:08:43,299
to come. but then, suddenly
Suddenly there’s an entry into

140
00:08:43,299 –> 00:08:47,900
our, our life, into our die
erised life, if you like that.

141
00:08:49,200 –> 00:08:53,300
None of us really want to be in
and out, in our pages of our

142
00:08:53,300 –> 00:08:57,900
life because it can really be a
difficult entry and it can hit

143
00:08:57,900 –> 00:09:04,000
us for absolute seasick.
Not right over the boundary for

144
00:09:04,000 –> 00:09:07,200
a six, and we don’t know how to
cope with that, and it hits us

145
00:09:07,200 –> 00:09:11,100
so hard, and we wish those pages
of our diary weren’t there.

146
00:09:11,100 –> 00:09:14,000
We wish we could tear them out.
Screw them up, throw them away.

147
00:09:14,500 –> 00:09:18,200
And sometimes when were open up
on that book of that page of a

148
00:09:18,300 –> 00:09:21,200
Our life brothers and sisters
and young people because you’re

149
00:09:21,200 –> 00:09:24,300
not even exempt from having
trials in your life either.

150
00:09:24,400 –> 00:09:28,400
But when we’re open up on that
page and we look at that that

151
00:09:28,400 –> 00:09:30,400
that page of our life.
It’s on.

152
00:09:30,500 –> 00:09:33,700
Oh, goodness me.
How long it takes that page to

153
00:09:33,700 –> 00:09:37,300
turn?
It just takes so long for that

154
00:09:37,300 –> 00:09:40,500
page turn and there’s there’s a
reason why we’ve got to have

155
00:09:40,600 –> 00:09:43,500
patience.
So I just want to briefly talk

156
00:09:43,500 –> 00:09:47,600
about the pages of our life
today and I I just chose 61

157
00:09:47,600 –> 00:09:53,300
because here is David reflecting
if you lie and remembering that

158
00:09:53,900 –> 00:09:59,600
on the days of years, like the
pages are in July and here he is

159
00:09:59,600 –> 00:10:03,500
in Psalm 61 talking about that.
And by the way, we believe this

160
00:10:03,500 –> 00:10:06,400
is written in red.
Christian looking back over his

161
00:10:06,400 –> 00:10:09,900
life because it talks about him
being really a king here.

162
00:10:10,200 –> 00:10:14,100
Hear My Cry o God.
Attend unto my prayer from the

163
00:10:14,100 –> 00:10:16,000
end of the Earth.
Will I cry unto thee.

164
00:10:16,000 –> 00:10:19,500
When my heart is overwhelmed,
lead me to the rock that is

165
00:10:19,500 –> 00:10:23,800
higher than I now.
That’s a reference.

166
00:10:23,800 –> 00:10:27,800
The, he’s now the king.
But God is way higher than he

167
00:10:27,800 –> 00:10:31,200
is.
And he’s remembering the times

168
00:10:31,200 –> 00:10:36,000
when he was in trouble and how
God was always there and wow, oh

169
00:10:36,000 –> 00:10:38,700
wow, did David have to have a
fair bit of patience in his

170
00:10:38,700 –> 00:10:41,500
early life?
For years?

171
00:10:41,500 –> 00:10:45,800
He was on the run from Seoul
years, what the page is must

172
00:10:45,800 –> 00:10:47,800
have been they were written in
blood.

173
00:10:48,200 –> 00:10:51,400
There they were and he was
wondering, where does this page

174
00:10:51,400 –> 00:10:54,300
going to turn on my life?
I can’t cope.

175
00:10:54,300 –> 00:10:55,600
And here he is.
Looking back now.

176
00:10:55,600 –> 00:10:57,400
So, Thank God, you’ve been my
shelter.

177
00:10:57,900 –> 00:11:02,000
You’ve been my strong tower and
verse 3 from the enemies and he

178
00:11:02,000 –> 00:11:04,400
goes on and he concludes the
psalm.

179
00:11:04,400 –> 00:11:06,400
As I said, I’m going to be very
brief on this Army.

180
00:11:06,400 –> 00:11:11,700
Concludes with the psalm where
he says, one thing is for sure.

181
00:11:11,700 –> 00:11:16,700
I’m going to continue to pay my
vows I’m going to continue to

182
00:11:16,700 –> 00:11:21,000
perform my daily vows of bursae
and I’m going to praise your

183
00:11:21,000 –> 00:11:23,900
name.
And you are.

184
00:11:23,900 –> 00:11:26,600
The meditation is quite
interesting, brother, Evan how

185
00:11:26,600 –> 00:11:29,100
that you hadn’t heard it before.
I’ve heard that before, Lovely

186
00:11:29,100 –> 00:11:32,900
song but I was just looking at
the words and how that just fits

187
00:11:32,900 –> 00:11:35,900
in with our expectation this
morning because of talk about

188
00:11:35,900 –> 00:11:39,700
the road of trials that we go on
and how we do need our patients

189
00:11:39,700 –> 00:11:43,900
and how that we praise God.
For his saving name, just

190
00:11:44,300 –> 00:11:47,100
excellent little choice.
Just happened to coincide

191
00:11:48,200 –> 00:11:50,300
randomly.
If you like, with the exaltation

192
00:11:50,300 –> 00:11:53,100
of smack about his day, the
same, Um hey we got to continue

193
00:11:53,100 –> 00:11:55,600
to pay our way out.
Now what are our vows?

194
00:11:55,600 –> 00:11:59,500
Well the greatest found with
given of course to God is at the

195
00:11:59,508 –> 00:12:02,000
day of our baptism where we
said, we’re going to leave

196
00:12:02,000 –> 00:12:04,300
behind the old way of life.
They’re going to serve God with

197
00:12:04,300 –> 00:12:08,000
all their heart, mind and soul.
That’s The Vow that we made at

198
00:12:08,000 –> 00:12:10,400
our baptism.
We’re going to try to keep that

199
00:12:10,400 –> 00:12:13,800
going every day of our life and
young people at something,

200
00:12:13,800 –> 00:12:17,200
you’re going to Aspire to if you
haven’t already taken that step,

201
00:12:17,200 –> 00:12:20,100
that’s what you want to be,
looking forward to the outer

202
00:12:20,100 –> 00:12:23,400
pay, that they are back to God.
David never lost that in his

203
00:12:23,400 –> 00:12:28,000
life sometimes sometimes we can
lose our way with that that

204
00:12:28,000 –> 00:12:33,300
little section there in our life
so we could just look at a few

205
00:12:33,308 –> 00:12:36,200
little instances in scripture at
people.

206
00:12:36,200 –> 00:12:41,100
That had a really difficult page
in their life to deal with and

207
00:12:41,100 –> 00:12:45,100
how did they deal with it?
And that’s what we want to have

208
00:12:45,100 –> 00:12:45,900
a look at wicked.
Wicked.

209
00:12:45,900 –> 00:12:49,600
Spend you know many studies on
this and look at different

210
00:12:49,600 –> 00:12:53,400
people and their life but I just
Want to turn up to just a few

211
00:12:53,400 –> 00:12:56,200
people and have a look at the
most what I believe anyway, is

212
00:12:56,200 –> 00:13:00,700
the most difficult moment that
they ever were placed in in

213
00:13:00,700 –> 00:13:03,500
their life.
And the first one I want to have

214
00:13:03,500 –> 00:13:08,300
a quick look at is Joseph.
Come back to Genesis chapter 40.

215
00:13:08,300 –> 00:13:12,000
I reckon this is that the most
difficult moment in Joseph’s

216
00:13:12,000 –> 00:13:14,700
life and you might.
So I was when he was thrown in

217
00:13:14,700 –> 00:13:19,300
the pig or it was when he was
sold into slavery.

218
00:13:19,300 –> 00:13:22,800
Yeah, they were all being very,
very difficult moments heat

219
00:13:22,800 –> 00:13:24,600
life.
But you come back to Genesis

220
00:13:24,600 –> 00:13:29,500
chapter 40 and you will see what
I believe is the most difficult

221
00:13:29,500 –> 00:13:35,100
time in his life.
So you got Genesis chapter 40

222
00:13:35,100 –> 00:13:38,800
and we know this is after the
incident where he was falsely

223
00:13:38,800 –> 00:13:44,400
accused by Potiphar’s wife and
he found himself in prison and

224
00:13:44,400 –> 00:13:49,500
by the way, he’s not in prison
for just three years, he’s in

225
00:13:49,508 –> 00:13:52,000
prison for eight nine, ten
years.

226
00:13:52,100 –> 00:13:54,800
Some say the longer we don’t
know exactly how old he was when

227
00:13:54,800 –> 00:13:56,900
he landed in prison but he
wouldn’t have been terribly old.

228
00:13:56,900 –> 00:13:59,700
He probably hadn’t spent year or
two and part of his house and

229
00:13:59,700 –> 00:14:03,200
he’s only Young when he sold
into slavery 78, 80 years old.

230
00:14:03,300 –> 00:14:06,600
Old.
And he’s now round 30 odd years

231
00:14:06,600 –> 00:14:08,200
old when he was taken out of
prison.

232
00:14:08,200 –> 00:14:11,000
So he, he could be in prison up
to 12 Years.

233
00:14:11,000 –> 00:14:12,900
A long time to be down in
prison.

234
00:14:14,000 –> 00:14:18,000
But of course, we find that
these two had a dream, the

235
00:14:18,000 –> 00:14:22,100
baker, the Butler had a dream
and they wanted the

236
00:14:22,100 –> 00:14:24,900
interpretation of the dream.
And and Joseph gives the

237
00:14:24,900 –> 00:14:27,100
interpretation and he says,
sorry Baker.

238
00:14:27,200 –> 00:14:30,600
You know your life’s not going
to pan out terribly well but you

239
00:14:30,600 –> 00:14:33,800
the butler you’re going to be
elevated back into your rightful

240
00:14:33,800 –> 00:14:36,400
position.
And then on the side and gets

241
00:14:36,400 –> 00:14:42,600
hold of the partners.
When all this eventuates and you

242
00:14:42,600 –> 00:14:46,000
you are you are restored your
rightful position.

243
00:14:46,000 –> 00:14:49,700
Can you can you please put a
good word in for me to Ferrar?

244
00:14:50,800 –> 00:14:54,500
Can you please do that?
Because my name is being down in

245
00:14:54,500 –> 00:14:57,800
this prison and it was must have
been really difficult for and

246
00:14:57,800 –> 00:15:01,300
this this is not a beautiful
reactor jar where you got your

247
00:15:01,300 –> 00:15:05,200
internet, your TVs and
everything else that you want

248
00:15:05,300 –> 00:15:08,300
lovely comfortable.
Be this is a prison down

249
00:15:08,300 –> 00:15:12,500
underground in the most
horrendous situation you think

250
00:15:12,500 –> 00:15:17,000
of in Egypt and he’s been there
for years and years wondering

251
00:15:17,000 –> 00:15:19,000
what on Earth.
Am I doing here?

252
00:15:19,100 –> 00:15:24,800
What plan is God, got for me.
Please Butler.

253
00:15:25,600 –> 00:15:29,000
When you get back into your
rightful position put a good

254
00:15:29,000 –> 00:15:32,500
word in for me I’m over I can’t
cope with this.

255
00:15:33,100 –> 00:15:37,400
You want to know when the most I
think the most difficult time in

256
00:15:37,500 –> 00:15:41,300
Joseph’s life was as he watched
that Butler gets taken out of

257
00:15:41,300 –> 00:15:44,500
the prison and he heard through
the grapevine that had been

258
00:15:44,600 –> 00:15:48,600
exonerated of whatever crime was
he was accused of and who put

259
00:15:48,600 –> 00:15:54,800
back in his position he would
have waited And we waited and

260
00:15:54,800 –> 00:15:58,100
waited for someone to come and
get him out of that prison

261
00:15:58,100 –> 00:16:01,000
because he was pinning.
His hopes on that mother.

262
00:16:01,000 –> 00:16:04,800
Give him a good word affair.
In another time.

263
00:16:07,200 –> 00:16:13,600
Or wait a month. 12 months.
Two full years went by and he’s

264
00:16:13,600 –> 00:16:18,700
languishing down in that prison.
I’ve been that is that last

265
00:16:18,700 –> 00:16:21,500
verse there in verse 42, verse
23.

266
00:16:21,900 –> 00:16:27,300
Yeah did not the chief Butler,
remember Joseph, but forgot him

267
00:16:27,900 –> 00:16:30,800
that moment of that next two
years I think would benefit

268
00:16:30,800 –> 00:16:35,800
package moment in Joseph’s life.
You know what, brothers and

269
00:16:35,800 –> 00:16:38,500
sisters he is, he is that page
of his life.

270
00:16:38,700 –> 00:16:41,600
Here it is.
It’s on that that page there.

271
00:16:41,800 –> 00:16:45,300
There it is.
That’s the page of his life, the

272
00:16:45,300 –> 00:16:53,000
darkest page of his life and yet
you go of this one page and he’s

273
00:16:53,000 –> 00:16:58,900
second in command of the Vendome
world has Egypt was the major

274
00:16:58,900 –> 00:17:01,100
power of the time.
How about that?

275
00:17:01,100 –> 00:17:04,500
For a page turn in your life?
One page.

276
00:17:04,700 –> 00:17:07,800
And he’s now second in command,
that’s Joseph.

277
00:17:08,500 –> 00:17:12,400
The patient’s, he had to Jeweler
as a young person relatively

278
00:17:12,400 –> 00:17:15,000
speaking was immense, but it
did.

279
00:17:15,599 –> 00:17:19,000
What about David himself?
We read about the psalm that he

280
00:17:19,000 –> 00:17:21,900
wrote.
Let’s, let’s come over to what I

281
00:17:21,900 –> 00:17:25,300
think is the most difficult time
in his life.

282
00:17:25,300 –> 00:17:27,400
Come over.
The first is Samuel chapter 30

283
00:17:27,400 –> 00:17:29,900
have a.
Look at this first of Samuel

284
00:17:29,900 –> 00:17:32,700
chapter 30.
This is an instance where one of

285
00:17:32,700 –> 00:17:35,800
the wars that David was Involved
in and off.

286
00:17:35,800 –> 00:17:41,400
He went with all these 600
mighty men that he had to go and

287
00:17:41,400 –> 00:17:45,500
and and have one of these these
major Wars that he had.

288
00:17:45,700 –> 00:17:50,900
And they left the camp alone
with the women and children and

289
00:17:50,900 –> 00:17:55,600
we read in first Samuel chapter
30 verse the first few verses

290
00:17:55,600 –> 00:17:58,900
and it came to pass when David
and his men were come to ziklag

291
00:17:58,900 –> 00:18:01,800
on the third day that the
amalekites had invaded.

292
00:18:01,800 –> 00:18:06,300
The South and ziklag and smitten
ziklag And burn it with fire.

293
00:18:06,400 –> 00:18:09,500
There’s a flag, of course, is
where David left all the men and

294
00:18:10,200 –> 00:18:13,000
women and children while they
were out, fighting this battle

295
00:18:13,000 –> 00:18:15,900
and they came back in and we
won’t go into this in any great

296
00:18:15,900 –> 00:18:18,300
detail.
They came back triumphant after

297
00:18:18,300 –> 00:18:21,100
the battle, but unfortunately,
the amalekites snuck around the

298
00:18:21,100 –> 00:18:24,100
back way, going into the village
and taken all their wives, and

299
00:18:24,100 –> 00:18:27,900
all their kids happy and all the
grandkids wooden grandkids as

300
00:18:27,900 –> 00:18:32,300
well.
How Dreadful was saying was

301
00:18:32,300 –> 00:18:34,400
this?
They walked in silence.

302
00:18:34,600 –> 00:18:37,000
They have no idea what was
happening to their wives.

303
00:18:37,000 –> 00:18:40,400
I have no idea what was
happening to their kids and the

304
00:18:40,400 –> 00:18:45,400
whole lot of them.
It tells us here in verse 6 wet

305
00:18:46,400 –> 00:18:51,100
greatly and David was greatly
distressed will burst forth then

306
00:18:51,100 –> 00:18:55,300
David and the people that were
with him and this is 600 Mighty

307
00:18:55,300 –> 00:19:01,000
loyal Warriors that were with
him lifted up their voice and

308
00:19:01,000 –> 00:19:06,000
they wept until they had no more
power to We that in the Hebrew

309
00:19:06,000 –> 00:19:09,900
means, they were totally
physically bereft of any more

310
00:19:09,900 –> 00:19:13,200
strength.
They couldn’t even take that SOB

311
00:19:13,200 –> 00:19:14,600
anymore.
They were junkies.

312
00:19:15,000 –> 00:19:18,700
This was, I think one of the
darkest moments of David’s life

313
00:19:18,700 –> 00:19:22,000
because he filled implicated in
this whole thing that this had

314
00:19:22,000 –> 00:19:27,200
happened.
And he was rightly distressed.

315
00:19:27,200 –> 00:19:30,900
It says, in verse 6, this is a
terrible time.

316
00:19:30,900 –> 00:19:33,300
We know the outcome of the
story, all the wet men, women

317
00:19:33,300 –> 00:19:37,900
children were were retrieved and
were saved.

318
00:19:37,900 –> 00:19:41,900
We know that men, the women and
children but you know there’s

319
00:19:41,900 –> 00:19:46,800
there on that page is one of
David’s if not the greatest most

320
00:19:46,800 –> 00:19:49,700
severe moment in his life.
There it is.

321
00:19:49,900 –> 00:19:53,200
And brothers sister you turn to
pages of his diary Hurry.

322
00:19:54,300 –> 00:19:59,400
And he’s now king of Judah.
Waiting become king of all of

323
00:19:59,408 –> 00:20:03,200
Israel.
You see, the pages of a life.

324
00:20:03,200 –> 00:20:05,400
Do turn, young people brothers
and sisters.

325
00:20:05,400 –> 00:20:08,600
They do turn.
Sometimes.

326
00:20:08,600 –> 00:20:13,600
They don’t turn terribly
quickly, but they will too one

327
00:20:13,600 –> 00:20:16,300
more before we get to the man
set before us on the table.

328
00:20:16,600 –> 00:20:18,700
Esther.
What about this?

329
00:20:18,700 –> 00:20:22,400
Beautiful young lady.
Chosen for a specific reason.

330
00:20:22,800 –> 00:20:26,600
When was the darkest moment in
her life brothers and sisters

331
00:20:26,600 –> 00:20:30,400
when you think about It might
have been, well, I believe it

332
00:20:30,400 –> 00:20:35,300
was in this time in Esther
chapter 4, and again, we know

333
00:20:35,300 –> 00:20:37,900
the story.
Great, the chapter 4.

334
00:20:38,600 –> 00:20:44,100
Hey, Matt have made his decree.
All the Jews in the land and all

335
00:20:44,100 –> 00:20:48,300
the provinces would be would be
killed on one particular day.

336
00:20:49,400 –> 00:20:54,600
And that implicated, of course,
Mordecai and Esther, and a nest

337
00:20:54,600 –> 00:21:01,200
of all this for we have the
Esther very, very grieved.

338
00:21:01,300 –> 00:21:06,000
Very grieved Esters May told
hurricane and told it to you to

339
00:21:06,000 –> 00:21:09,100
her.
This was the decree and, and all

340
00:21:09,100 –> 00:21:14,300
about how more Decay I had had
totally become distressed

341
00:21:14,300 –> 00:21:18,800
himself over it.
Then was the queen exceedingly

342
00:21:18,800 –> 00:21:20,500
rare.
Not just gree this.

343
00:21:20,500 –> 00:21:26,100
She was overwhelmed.
With total distress and grief.

344
00:21:27,800 –> 00:21:31,000
And she wanted to get more to
Kor back in a frame of mind, a

345
00:21:31,000 –> 00:21:34,100
helper through what she knew,
what.

346
00:21:34,100 –> 00:21:38,100
Okay, I told her she needed to
do, and of course, you just turn

347
00:21:38,100 –> 00:21:41,200
the page in verse 16.
And this is, this is how

348
00:21:41,500 –> 00:21:44,700
desperate and how grieved she
really was.

349
00:21:44,700 –> 00:21:48,100
And she said, Okay, mortar Ki
wants me to go down this track

350
00:21:48,100 –> 00:21:50,200
old do it.
I will do it.

351
00:21:50,200 –> 00:21:53,100
She’s only going to, by the way.
She’s not very old.

352
00:21:54,300 –> 00:21:58,200
She’s so she says go gather
together all Jews that are

353
00:21:58,200 –> 00:22:02,700
present in shushan fast ye for
me neither eat, nor drink three

354
00:22:02,700 –> 00:22:06,600
days night or day.
And I also, my maidens will Fast

355
00:22:06,600 –> 00:22:10,300
likewise, and then I’m going to
go into the King which motorcade

356
00:22:10,300 –> 00:22:14,200
explains you needed to do, which
is not according to the law, you

357
00:22:14,200 –> 00:22:18,000
just don’t walk into the king
unannounced, and if I perish, I

358
00:22:18,000 –> 00:22:22,500
perish shared set her face, as
it were like a fleet that she

359
00:22:22,500 –> 00:22:25,100
was going to go through with
what she had done.

360
00:22:25,100 –> 00:22:29,400
This is arguably one of the most
Cerny darkest moments in

361
00:22:29,400 –> 00:22:34,900
Esther’s life was this moment in
time and yet, brothers, and

362
00:22:34,900 –> 00:22:40,600
sisters, you turn the few pages
over and she becomes one of the

363
00:22:40,600 –> 00:22:46,000
greatest queens that Persia has
ever had even written in their

364
00:22:46,000 –> 00:22:50,500
own history books today.
How amazing?

365
00:22:50,500 –> 00:22:54,100
That all the Jews are saved
haman’s gone.

366
00:22:54,100 –> 00:22:58,600
The enemies destroyed more Decay
has elevated and S2 becomes that

367
00:22:58,600 –> 00:23:02,600
beautiful queen of Persia.
You see, brothers and sisters.

368
00:23:02,600 –> 00:23:06,800
This is the pages, people’s
lives, our brothers, and sisters

369
00:23:06,800 –> 00:23:13,800
of old, and really our pages are
no different as pages will turn

370
00:23:15,700 –> 00:23:18,200
Well, I just wanted to talk
about this man.

371
00:23:18,200 –> 00:23:20,800
Has we bring out or X or Too
Close?

372
00:23:20,800 –> 00:23:24,400
I want to talk about this man on
the table before us because he

373
00:23:24,400 –> 00:23:29,800
also had pages of his life.
Free difference with his pay is

374
00:23:29,800 –> 00:23:34,100
in his life and ours.
He you the detail that was

375
00:23:34,100 –> 00:23:39,400
waiting here and every page of
the Prophecies of what he was

376
00:23:39,400 –> 00:23:43,400
doin, cure every son that he
read about him.

377
00:23:44,300 –> 00:23:48,000
Every prophecy in Isaiah and
Jeremiah that concern was

378
00:23:48,000 –> 00:23:51,500
concerning the last 24 hours of
his death, his life.

379
00:23:51,600 –> 00:23:56,800
He you, what was on those pages.
He was a difficult read for him.

380
00:23:56,800 –> 00:23:59,700
Could you imagine him reading
those pages brothers or sisters

381
00:23:59,700 –> 00:24:01,000
of?
When do you reckon was the

382
00:24:01,008 –> 00:24:04,700
darkest moment of his life?
Well, I’ll tell you where that

383
00:24:04,700 –> 00:24:06,900
was.
You come over to Luke 22?

384
00:24:06,900 –> 00:24:10,000
Here it is.
He is, I think that darkest

385
00:24:10,000 –> 00:24:13,100
moment of our Lord, Jesus,
Christ’s life.

386
00:24:14,300 –> 00:24:16,000
Wasn’t when he was on the cross
for other.

387
00:24:16,000 –> 00:24:18,800
It’s just these difficult,
although that was painfully

388
00:24:18,800 –> 00:24:23,300
difficult from a point of view
of being in total and absolute

389
00:24:23,300 –> 00:24:28,900
mental, anguish and sorrow and
difficulty, it was previous to

390
00:24:28,900 –> 00:24:31,000
the crucifixion.
It was when he was in The Garden

391
00:24:31,000 –> 00:24:37,100
of Gethsemane praying to his
Heavenly Father, Strength to

392
00:24:37,100 –> 00:24:39,100
getting through the next 24
hours.

393
00:24:40,600 –> 00:24:43,600
And he’s own disciples couldn’t
even stay awake while he was

394
00:24:43,600 –> 00:24:46,900
doing that today.
You have a look at verse verse

395
00:24:46,900 –> 00:24:52,500
44 of Luke 22, and he’s their
brothers and sisters in that

396
00:24:52,500 –> 00:24:56,000
Garden.
Knowing all, what was on those

397
00:24:56,000 –> 00:24:58,800
pages of his life.
What was about to happen to him?

398
00:24:59,200 –> 00:25:04,600
And he’s in agony, he’s not in
necessarily physical Agony, but

399
00:25:04,600 –> 00:25:08,200
mental Agony so much.
So it says he prayed more

400
00:25:08,200 –> 00:25:13,500
earnestly and his sweat was was
as it were great drops of blood

401
00:25:13,600 –> 00:25:16,200
falling down to the ground.
Now, you know what young people

402
00:25:16,200 –> 00:25:18,500
brother-sister, you probably
heard, they said medical

403
00:25:18,500 –> 00:25:21,900
condition happens.
Very, very rarely, but it does

404
00:25:22,000 –> 00:25:27,100
actually happen to those that
are under extreme duress, the

405
00:25:27,100 –> 00:25:32,900
pores of their sweat glands,
expand and open up completely

406
00:25:33,100 –> 00:25:36,800
and mix in with the blood
vessels of your thyroid.

407
00:25:37,200 –> 00:25:40,900
So that the blood and the sweat
mix and will just drip Looks

408
00:25:40,900 –> 00:25:42,700
like blood dripping out of your
far.

409
00:25:43,100 –> 00:25:46,500
And that happens with it’s under
extreme duress.

410
00:25:47,000 –> 00:25:50,800
That is the, I believe it.
Most difficult time in our

411
00:25:50,800 –> 00:25:54,000
Lord’s life because he knew what
was ahead of him.

412
00:25:54,400 –> 00:25:58,900
He read the Psalms he read,
Isaiah 53, he read the

413
00:25:58,900 –> 00:26:00,500
Prophecies of Jeremiah.
What?

414
00:26:00,500 –> 00:26:02,600
We’re going to happen to this
man here.

415
00:26:02,600 –> 00:26:05,300
We’re about to remember knew
everything he knew that he was

416
00:26:05,300 –> 00:26:07,800
going to be betrayed by one of
his own.

417
00:26:08,600 –> 00:26:12,100
He you though going to get it.
And they were going to build him

418
00:26:12,600 –> 00:26:15,900
to the point where he was
unrecognizable, he knew is going

419
00:26:15,900 –> 00:26:18,500
to get lashings on his back by
his stripes.

420
00:26:18,500 –> 00:26:21,200
We are healed.
He knew that how the Romans did

421
00:26:21,200 –> 00:26:23,200
that.
He probably even witness that he

422
00:26:23,200 –> 00:26:26,600
saw how cruel they could be, but
they were extra pulled grilled

423
00:26:26,600 –> 00:26:29,800
him because he became a matter
of entertainment for them.

424
00:26:29,800 –> 00:26:32,900
Didn’t know, he knew that, that
was spit on him, they would

425
00:26:32,900 –> 00:26:36,100
punch him.
They were Jane crown of thorns

426
00:26:36,100 –> 00:26:38,500
on his head till it ripped into
his skin.

427
00:26:38,500 –> 00:26:40,200
He you all that from the
prophecies.

428
00:26:40,300 –> 00:26:43,400
Brothers and sisters, he knew
that these Roman thugs were

429
00:26:43,400 –> 00:26:46,900
going to throw him down to the
ground and laugh at him and kick

430
00:26:46,900 –> 00:26:50,400
him, and hold him down, and rip
his beard out of his face.

431
00:26:50,400 –> 00:26:57,800
He knew all that he knew what
was on that page. is it any

432
00:26:57,800 –> 00:27:01,600
wonder that this is a lot of
sweat with just ripping off his

433
00:27:01,600 –> 00:27:06,600
head because He really felt as I
am I going to be able to cope

434
00:27:06,600 –> 00:27:09,100
with all this.
That’s what he says.

435
00:27:09,700 –> 00:27:14,500
But rather if there’s any other
way Not my will be done, but thy

436
00:27:14,500 –> 00:27:17,700
will is two wheels, he neither
of them are wrong.

437
00:27:19,700 –> 00:27:22,500
The Lord Jesus Christ is not
wanting to go against the

438
00:27:22,500 –> 00:27:24,800
father’s will.
That’s why ads not my will be

439
00:27:24,800 –> 00:27:27,200
done but I will.
But I don’t know whether

440
00:27:27,200 –> 00:27:30,500
physically I’m going to cope.
I know I’ve got to see this all

441
00:27:30,500 –> 00:27:33,300
through, right to the very end
of read about it.

442
00:27:33,300 –> 00:27:36,500
And I just feel as though I’m
not going to make it and sell it

443
00:27:36,500 –> 00:27:39,300
for probably twenty four hours
previous to this imagine trying

444
00:27:39,300 –> 00:27:43,300
to sleep, knowing what’s about
come about in your own life and

445
00:27:43,300 –> 00:27:46,000
he can feel pain like you.
And I could feel pain brothers

446
00:27:46,000 –> 00:27:47,900
and sisters, and he knew what
was ahead of him.

447
00:27:48,200 –> 00:27:50,900
I don’t know.
If I’m going to make it and what

448
00:27:50,900 –> 00:27:52,700
does God do?
Brothers and sisters.

449
00:27:53,000 –> 00:27:55,800
There’s God, just leave.
His only son down there and that

450
00:27:55,800 –> 00:27:58,900
time of absolute difficult in
his life.

451
00:27:59,700 –> 00:28:02,400
Oh no, it absolutely not.
You know what?

452
00:28:02,400 –> 00:28:08,600
He does previous verse there in
verse 43 and there appeared an

453
00:28:08,600 –> 00:28:15,600
angel unto him.
From Heaven, strengthening him.

454
00:28:16,300 –> 00:28:18,600
This is no ordinary Angel,
brothers and sisters.

455
00:28:18,600 –> 00:28:20,100
They would have been angels in
that Garden.

456
00:28:20,100 –> 00:28:22,600
There was Angel’s on the earth.
There are angels, pray, and

457
00:28:22,600 –> 00:28:25,100
those disciples.
They had their own Angel.

458
00:28:25,100 –> 00:28:29,900
God says, no, this is, this is
my son, he is in absolute need.

459
00:28:30,600 –> 00:28:32,800
I’m not just going to send any
ordinary angle.

460
00:28:32,800 –> 00:28:35,100
There’s no such thing as
ordinary Angel, so I apologize

461
00:28:35,100 –> 00:28:36,700
for using that term but I’m not
just going.

462
00:28:36,700 –> 00:28:40,300
I am sending the angel from
heaven.

463
00:28:40,400 –> 00:28:43,500
And I think he looked at to
either Michael or Gabriel one of

464
00:28:43,500 –> 00:28:48,300
those two and said, this is a
very critical time in my son’s

465
00:28:48,300 –> 00:28:51,000
life.
I need you to go down there and

466
00:28:51,000 –> 00:28:55,600
help.
Our Lord, Jesus Christ was

467
00:28:55,600 –> 00:29:00,400
greatly strengthened by that.
Angel from heaven, the Angel

468
00:29:00,700 –> 00:29:03,600
Michael Gabriel, doesn’t matter.
Both of them.

469
00:29:03,600 –> 00:29:07,900
Very important Angels far as the
Heavenly angels are concerned

470
00:29:07,900 –> 00:29:12,500
and down that angel went and
strengthen the Lord Jesus

471
00:29:12,600 –> 00:29:14,800
Christ.
How did he strengthening?

472
00:29:14,800 –> 00:29:18,000
Where we know from Hebrew is
that we the chapter on faith?

473
00:29:19,400 –> 00:29:21,500
For the joy, that was set before
him.

474
00:29:21,500 –> 00:29:25,400
That’s what the age of death.
He put his arm around the Lord

475
00:29:25,400 –> 00:29:27,700
Jesus Christ, who said you
could, you’ll be okay.

476
00:29:27,700 –> 00:29:30,900
We’re going to be with you every
step of the way and have a look

477
00:29:30,900 –> 00:29:35,500
at the future that awaits you.
And I think he set the joy that

478
00:29:35,500 –> 00:29:38,600
was set before him was set
before him by God, and the

479
00:29:38,600 –> 00:29:42,900
angels, he can fish allies, the
Finishing Line where he is

480
00:29:42,900 –> 00:29:45,800
waiting.
Beckoning you and me, and all of

481
00:29:45,800 –> 00:29:48,400
us keep running.
Keep coming.

482
00:29:48,700 –> 00:29:49,900
We’re going to get into the
kingdom.

483
00:29:49,900 –> 00:29:51,700
We’re all going to be in this
Kingdom.

484
00:29:51,700 –> 00:29:55,300
Don’t give up.
That’s the joy.

485
00:29:55,300 –> 00:29:58,300
That was set before him and
causeth that he was able to you

486
00:29:58,300 –> 00:30:01,400
know, in Jewel the cross and
despised the shame that was

487
00:30:01,400 –> 00:30:04,600
about to happen to him.
He can do all of that brothers

488
00:30:04,600 –> 00:30:09,100
and sisters because An angel
strengthened.

489
00:30:10,400 –> 00:30:13,500
And that’s the darkest moment of
our Lord.

490
00:30:13,500 –> 00:30:17,800
Jesus, Christ’s life is on that
page, brothers and sisters.

491
00:30:18,100 –> 00:30:20,200
And you know what?
You turn the page.

492
00:30:21,700 –> 00:30:27,500
One page.
And our Lord is elevated to

493
00:30:27,500 –> 00:30:29,700
second-in-command of the
universe.

494
00:30:32,700 –> 00:30:34,900
There’s the page of his life
brother and sisters.

495
00:30:36,500 –> 00:30:39,000
I don’t know what page you’re on
in your life at the moment, it

496
00:30:39,000 –> 00:30:42,500
may be one of those Bland Pages
where we just everything goes on

497
00:30:42,600 –> 00:30:46,600
as it were, that’s a danger page
as well, because sometimes we

498
00:30:46,600 –> 00:30:49,900
can lose sight of where we
really are at in this world and

499
00:30:50,100 –> 00:30:53,900
the return of the Lord Jesus
Christ or perhaps in your page,

500
00:30:53,900 –> 00:30:56,700
it’s a pretty difficult one and
you are scrambling to really

501
00:30:56,700 –> 00:31:00,400
want that page, 22, rest assured
brothers and sisters.

502
00:31:00,400 –> 00:31:06,900
The page and pages will turn.
They will turn And you think of

503
00:31:06,900 –> 00:31:10,400
those three examples were gave
and of course, the Lord.

504
00:31:10,400 –> 00:31:15,200
Jesus Christ, what actually was
achieved in the difficult

505
00:31:15,200 –> 00:31:17,500
moments of their life?
What you think of what Joseph

506
00:31:17,500 –> 00:31:20,900
went through the Dreadful trial?
He went through, what had?

507
00:31:21,200 –> 00:31:24,100
What was ultimately achieve.
Well, the ultimate result of

508
00:31:24,100 –> 00:31:27,000
that brothers sisters Was Not
only, was he a little bit

509
00:31:27,000 –> 00:31:32,900
elevator, he saved his family.
He saved his family as a result

510
00:31:32,900 –> 00:31:36,600
of that, that they were destined
for certain ruin, but he was

511
00:31:36,600 –> 00:31:40,600
able to extract from them, I’m
talking necessary that Jacob,

512
00:31:40,600 –> 00:31:46,200
but he Brothers future for them.
And David, he went through

513
00:31:46,200 –> 00:31:47,600
difficult trial.
What was that?

514
00:31:47,600 –> 00:31:50,900
Well, he the result of that, is
he saved the nation for certain

515
00:31:50,900 –> 00:31:55,300
collapse.
Esther went through terrible

516
00:31:55,300 –> 00:31:59,200
trial and she the result of that
was hundreds of thousands of

517
00:31:59,200 –> 00:32:02,100
Jews were saved and this man
here.

518
00:32:04,000 –> 00:32:07,000
And went through that
extraordinarily difficult time.

519
00:32:08,200 –> 00:32:10,400
And finally went through
everything and, you know, when

520
00:32:10,400 –> 00:32:13,300
he was on the cross, he uttered
those words, it is finished.

521
00:32:13,300 –> 00:32:17,500
That was pretty well-defined a
words that he said, it is

522
00:32:17,500 –> 00:32:20,100
finished, you know, probably
what was going on in his life.

523
00:32:20,300 –> 00:32:24,700
I think what was going on in his
mind was every prophecy of what

524
00:32:24,700 –> 00:32:28,600
he had to endure all the way,
right from the moment of his

525
00:32:28,600 –> 00:32:33,000
betrayal, right to when they
parted lots for his garments

526
00:32:33,000 –> 00:32:35,300
white.
When They Jam vinegar in his

527
00:32:35,300 –> 00:32:40,000
mouth to drink right through all
prophesied in scripture and and

528
00:32:40,000 –> 00:32:42,400
he’s going off at his ticking
them off in his mind.

529
00:32:42,400 –> 00:32:45,100
He’s taking him off, and he can
hardly breathe on that cross.

530
00:32:45,100 –> 00:32:48,000
He’s taking each breath.
Breathe.

531
00:32:48,000 –> 00:32:51,800
And then finally, the last
prophecy the last Psalm is

532
00:32:51,800 –> 00:32:57,700
fulfilled.
It is finished.

533
00:33:00,500 –> 00:33:04,100
He gave us two.
And what did that man?

534
00:33:04,100 –> 00:33:08,200
Achieve working.
He can be paved the way for

535
00:33:08,200 –> 00:33:11,400
salvation of all those.
That would take hold of that

536
00:33:11,400 –> 00:33:15,300
pathway to Salvation.
He saved the world.

537
00:33:17,000 –> 00:33:21,600
That was what happened?
As a result of that man’s, try

538
00:33:21,600 –> 00:33:24,400
and silence.
So brothers and sisters, our

539
00:33:24,400 –> 00:33:26,600
trials and sufferings are not
just for us.

540
00:33:26,600 –> 00:33:31,500
They are for others as well.
And I really hope that when we

541
00:33:31,500 –> 00:33:35,200
come across those haters and our
life that are difficult, we

542
00:33:35,200 –> 00:33:39,000
really do hope brothers sisters
that they will turn quickly.

543
00:33:39,100 –> 00:33:41,700
But one thing we can be
guaranteed and that’s this.

544
00:33:41,900 –> 00:33:44,500
And this is the, this is the
past on guarantee that God’s

545
00:33:44,500 –> 00:33:48,400
given us brothers and sisters
and that is this every one of

546
00:33:48,400 –> 00:33:52,400
us.
Every one of us has been given a

547
00:33:52,400 –> 00:33:58,100
guarantee that the last entry on
that last little paragraph of

548

the page of our life is Going to
be any identical.

549
00:34:01,700 –> 00:34:03,400

this.
