Psalm 106:47
Save us, Adonai our G_d! Gather us from among the nations, so that we can thank your holy name and glory in praising you.
Genesis 45:1 At last Yosef could no longer control his feelings in front of his attendants and cried, "Get everybody away from me!" So no one else was with him when Yosef revealed to his brothers who he was. 2 He wept aloud, and the Egyptians heard, and Pharaoh's household heard.
Genesis 45:3 Yosef said to his brothers, "I am Yosef! Is it true that my father is still alive?" His brothers couldn't answer him, they were so dumbfounded at seeing him. 4 Yosef said to his brothers, "Please! Come closer." And they came closer. He said, "I am Yosef, your brother, whom you sold into Egypt. 5 But don't be sad that you sold me into slavery here or angry at yourselves, because it was G_d who sent me ahead of you to preserve life.
Genesis 45:6 The famine has been over the land for the last two years, and for yet another five years there will be neither plowing nor harvest. 7 G_d sent me ahead of you to ensure that you will have descendants on earth and to save your lives in a great deliverance. 8 So it was not you who sent me here, but G_d; and he has made me a father to Pharaoh, lord of all his household and ruler over the whole land of Egypt.
Genesis 45:9 Hurry, go up to my father, and tell him, `Here is what your son Yosef says: "G_d has made me lord of all Egypt! Come down to me, don't delay! 10 You will live in the land of Goshen and be near me — you, your children, your grandchildren, flocks, herds, everything you own. 11 I will provide for you there, so that you won't become poverty-stricken, you, your household and all that you have; because five years of famine are yet to come."'
Genesis 45:12 Here! Your own eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Binyamin, that it is my own mouth speaking to you. 13 Tell my father how honored I am in Egypt and everything you have seen, and quickly bring my father down here!" 14 Then he embraced his brother Binyamin and wept, and Binyamin wept on his neck, 15 and he kissed all his brothers and wept on them. After that, his brothers talked with him.
Genesis 45:16 The report of this reached Pharaoh's house: "Yosef's brothers have come"; and Pharaoh and his servants were pleased. 17 Pharaoh said to Yosef, "Tell your brothers, `Here is what you are to do. Load up your animals, go to the land of Kena`an, 18 take your father and your families, and come back to me. I will give you good property in Egypt, and you will eat the fat of the land.
Genesis 45:19 "`Moreover — and this is an order — do this: take wagons from the land of Egypt to carry your little ones and your wives, and bring your father, and come. 20 Don't worry about your stuff, because everything good in the land of Egypt is yours.'"
Genesis 45:21 The sons of Isra'el acted accordingly; and Yosef gave them wagons, as Pharaoh had ordered, and gave them provisions for their journey. 22 To each of them he gave a set of new clothes; but to Binyamin he gave seven-and-a-half pounds of silver and five sets of new clothes. 23 Likewise, to his father he sent ten donkeys loaded with the finest goods Egypt produced, as well as ten female donkeys loaded with grain, bread and food for his father to eat on the return journey. 24 Thus he sent his brothers on their way, and they left; he said to them, "Don't quarrel among yourselves while you're traveling!"
Genesis 45:25 So they went up out of Egypt, entered the land of Kena`an and came to Ya`akov their father. 26 They told him, "Yosef is still alive! He is ruler over the whole land of Egypt!" He was stunned at the news; he couldn't believe them. 27 So they reported to him everything Yosef had said to them; but it was only when he saw the wagons which Yosef had sent to carry him that the spirit of Ya`akov their father began to revive. 28 Isra'el said, "Enough! My son Yosef is still alive! I must go and see him before I die."

(02:54):
One more son of them actually, because this is important.
You need to get a son of them because they're
going to focus on the larger sun ovens and there's
only less than a couple of one hundred left. If
you want to get a son oven, now's the time
to get.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Hey, my name's Tripp and I want to introduce you
the Sun Oven. This is our all American son oven.
We've been making these for the last thirty five years.
We're in one hundred and twenty six different countries all
over the world, and basically we call this a solar
crock pot and it's used to be able to just
put your food in there and slow cook it with
the power of the sun. You can never burn, sports
or dry anything out inside the sun Oven. Once you
(03:28):
put it in, the sun reflects all of these reflectors
in through the glass into the inner chamber, and it
reaches temperatures between three hundred and three hundred and fifty degrees. Really,
the design is very simple. It's like the greenhouse effect.
If you got in your car during the summer and
it's really really hot, that's what's happening inside the sun oven.
You know, anything you cook in your regular oven, you
can cook inside the sun of it. You can use
(03:49):
any of your existing pots and pans if they'll fit
in here, you can cook with them in here, just
like you do in your regular oven. It's designed for
you to be able to cook your meal out with
the power of the sign and literally the longer you
keeps up in here, the more juicy and tender it is.
So that's a quick introduction to the sun open.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Thank you. Yes, we can introduct into the sun oven.
Get your soft one, because seriously, things are going to
get weird and you need to have a means of
cooking and go from there. It's interesting you know, we'll
talk about that another time. Right now, I really want
to get us focused with one more and then we'll
get into today's topic.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
Hello, I'm doctor Lee at horizontal Hive dot com and
I keep this naturally and then everything starts by catching
a local freeze swarm of honey bees. You put a
small bee hive like that on the tree in the springtime,
just as birds move into birdhouses, bees we'll move into
and a little high like that. After that, you take
the frames, put them in a bigger box.
Speaker 6 (04:47):
They expand, They collect tiny from the flowers and make
good time from you for you.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
And it can be as simple as that.
Speaker 6 (04:54):
No sugar fitting, no chemical treatments. I'm doing it for
a living, and there are so many people people who
do the same thing. You can learn more in the
book Keeping Bees with a Smile, And that's exactly that,
doing natural beekeeping and smiling the same.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Time, natural beekeeping and smiling at the same time. Doctor
Leo will be with Doug and Stacy at their their
conference this year again, Homesteading Conference out in Missouri. If
you can make the trip out there, I think it'd
be well well worth it, and a lot of amazing
people you can check out. If you go check out
the Home Setting Conference, go look into Doug and Stacy.
(05:29):
They are on YouTube. You can and I'm sure that
if you go and look at any of their videos,
they'll tell you a lot about the Home Setting Conference.
And it may not still it may not be too
late to still get there. Look into it. A lot
of great people and a personal request for you as
well too. One of the gentlemen I had the chance
(05:50):
to meet when I was over there in there, he
came out with his wife had passed away. He was
a pretty good guy. Actually, i'd be asking you fast prayers.
We'll talk more about it when we come back from
the break, because I really want to cover this. And
it's amazing when you learn and you meet really cool
(06:10):
people and you find out some of the challenges that
they experience, and sometimes they go through a lot, and
then when they finally let you know, it's like it's
amazing to see how strong they were able to stand
in the midst of the greatest challenges they face in life.
And honestly, I kind of see that even in the
story today with our family and reunited, and it feels
so good because this is the moment that Joseph reveals himself,
(06:33):
because remember last week, Joseph and you know Judah, he
was confessing that one of the brothers are dead, you know,
and and my father, you know, we we can't go
back without him because it would have killed my father
if you if you keep Benjamin here, Benjamin here with you,
and we don't want to see our father go to
(06:55):
the grave in pain. They finally did the confession that
they need tod It's like, you know, they say, confession
is good for the soul. Well, this was long overdue
of what they did to their brother. And now he's
at this he's at a tipping point now the charade.
He can't hold up the charade any longer. So let's
(07:16):
look and see what happens here with respect to you know. Well,
the first verse I want to share actually before we
get into the story, is this, save us out, Save
us out of Nye, our God, gather us from among
the nations so that we can thank your holy name
and glory and glory in praising you. You know, this
(07:40):
is you know that there's a chief that I were
talking about, this about the the verse that's always taken
out of context. What is that Second Chronicles seven fourteen,
those if my people call by name, will pray and
I'll heal their I'll heal their land. But they miss
key verses in that like seek my face, humble themselves,
(08:03):
turn from their wicked ways. Now let's let's let's look
at this. Let's let's look at this, because this is
exactly what the brothers of Yoseph have done. They humble
themselves twice now to be in and seek the face
of the pharaoh, of the Pharaoh of Egypt or his
(08:24):
assistant or sustenance for their family. Okay, they humbled themselves,
they sought his face, and they repented, because now they're
wanting to turn from their wicked ways. We are confessing
the evils that were in our heart. And guess what
he says, I will hear and I will I will
(08:47):
heal their land. I mean, if you would to, if
you would to see Second Radical seven fourteen. In this
full culmination, it is literally these past three or four
chapters of Joseph dealing with his brothers who did him wrong.
And then once once the and they experienced a little
grace before the repentance and the confession. But they're gonna
(09:12):
receive some bigger grace as a result of their full confession.
And now Joseph about to reveal who he is. But
I love this because of the fact that it's like
if we if we see we seek the Lord in
the midst of no matter what the evil nations are doing,
we understand that he is our sustenance, He is out
(09:33):
He is our very essence, our hope, our hope in
an ever, ever present trouble, whenever there's trouble that's around.
It's not saying that we'll be delivered from the trouble,
but we're attached to and we're anchored to and we're
holding on and he's holding us more important than anything
else in the midst of our troubles, He's he's the
(09:56):
standard foundation. He's a solid rock foundation in the midst
of the crashing waves and everything else that you can imagine.
And he doesn't erode like cliffs on the edge of
seashore lines. He doesn't erode. He stands strong. But this
is the thing. The thing about it is like we
wanted to be in the spirit of praising, thanking Him,
(10:18):
thanking his Holy name, and praise and praising him with
everything we have everything has breath. Praised the Lord, Praise
the Lord. H I just got to just love it.
Those called by his name and the brothers of Joseph
(10:38):
have done exactly what that full verse says, humble themselves
sought his face and turned from their wicked ways. Now
the healing. This is so beautiful, This is so so beautiful.
Oh I love it. I love it. I love it,
I love it, I love it. Oh, so we have
(11:03):
sorry project in my brains here at last, verse one,
At last, Joseph could no longer control his feelings in
front of his attendants and cried, get everyone away from me,
so no one else was with him. When Joseph revealed
to his brothers who he was, he wept aloud, and
(11:23):
the Egyptians heard, and Pharaoh's household heard. You know, after
all this time, like these are the pre stages of
vindication that they confess. They confess that what we did
to our brother was wrong, and what would happen to
(11:45):
what we've been doing to our father has been wrong.
And it's a possibility that they could have been doing
things to Benjamin Benjamin that could have been wrong as well.
And now Joseph is in a position that the dreams
that scared them, or that he that they mocked him for,
have come to fruition through the through the beating and
(12:08):
the and the imprisonment and the cistern, and then sold
into slavery, and then it falsely accused of rape and
and and and locked in prison, multiple imprisonments, imprisonments by
his brother, first before sold into slavery, imprisonment when he
was basically sold to to oh my goodness, not Pharaoh Potiphar,
(12:32):
and the false imprisonment and falsely accusation from his wife
and then imprisonment for something he never did do. And
now here it is the very the very people who
who started the who the catalysts who hit the catastrophes
in his life, are now before him, bringing him long
(12:52):
overdue healing because of their confession. Oh Glory to God.
I mean, this is key here, This is key because yeah, yeah, yeah,
we're gonna do this. We're gonna do this because there's
this thing about this false, this false churchianity, devilish thing
(13:16):
out there saying forgive them even if they don't ask
for forgiveness. Forgive them if they even if they don't
ask for forgiveness. That is not biblical. That is not
biblical at all. See the Lord the Word in his
(13:42):
truth will lead us either to repentance or rebellion. We'll
either receive the truth and do what is necessary, or
we will reject the truth and continue to live on
our own ways, believing that we are God unto ourselves.
What has happened is that the Lord has humbled them
(14:03):
to the point that they're standing for their own brother
that they've wronged, having no idea who he is, and
they're finally bringing him the healing that they needed because
they confessed. They were willing to confess to a total
stranger of the wicked deeds in their hearts and the
(14:24):
pains that they have caused. They feel guilt, they feel remorse,
they re feel repentance. They understand that the judgment of
what is transpired. We deserve what's happening to us, and
if it's not enough, give us more judgment. Please, we
have done wrong. And this idea that when someone finally confesses,
(14:50):
someone finally asked for forget you know, they repent right
before you. Now, they couldn't ask Joseph for forgiveness because
they thought he was dead. Uh, they thought he was
dead oh mm hmmmm. And I'm telling you that we
(15:15):
get to this point where there are times we just
got to shut up, because once we get silent and
we allow the Lord to heal us. In the midst
of this stuff, he works on the hearts of the
other individuals, and some slated for destruction and some slated
(15:37):
for redemption. The choice is theirs on whether or not
they will respond to his truth in the correct way.
Joseph said verse three, Yosef said to his brothers, I
am Yoseph, is it true that my father is still alive.
His brothers couldn't answer him. They were so dumbfound that
(15:58):
it's seeing him. He also said to his brothers, please
come closer, and they came closer. He said, I am Joseph,
your brother whom you sold into Egypt. But don't be
sad you sold me into slavery here, slavery here, or
angry at yourselves, because it is it was God who
(16:18):
sent me ahead of you to preserve life. This is
a confession of his soul. This is what the Lord
has done. Hey, John, thank you for joining Carry, Thank
you for joining and being part of the program over
there in the world or Facebook, as he can now
he is now free. He is now unburdened from holding
(16:40):
back the truth as long as he could in everything
that he has restrained himself because he had to learn,
he had to know exactly what's going on. And you
know what, when people are hungry, they don't continue to lie.
When people are desperate, they don't continue to lie. Only
sick a fan do that. Only twisted narciss stisistic individuals
(17:04):
continue to lie when you know, when they know that
they're busted. Only narcissistic, twisted people continue to flip out
when they know that they're they've been busted. Oh Lord,
(17:25):
help us. I just I'm just thank you, Lord, thank you,
thank you Lord. And I pray that that helps individuals
to do as well. I hope that helps people. It's this,
it's this beautiful thing that is this confession, confession that
the freedom that Joseph now has because he can confess
(17:48):
to his brothers, Yeah, you wanted to do this to me,
and you did do this to me, But understand God
was over me regardless of what you had done. Whatever
you're with and machinations and plants were Look how God
gets glory in what you did. But he had another
plan for me. That's just so stinking beautiful. I hope
(18:18):
that helped someone. Verse six, it says, now because we're
talking about the sovereignty of God now here. I love
this because he says, the famine has been over over
the land for the last two years, and for yet
another five years there will be neither plowing nor harvests.
(18:40):
God sent me ahead of you to ensure that you
will you will have descendants on earth, and to save
your lives in a great deliverance. So it was not
you who sent me here, but God. And He has
made me a father to Pharaoh, lord of all his
household and whole household, and ruler over the whole whole
(19:03):
land of Egypt. And so when we sit here and
we talk about the sovereignty of God, I know, you know,
we just finished a crazy election season. I know many
of us are probably already even worried and concerned about
what in the world is twenty twenty eight going to
look like. Right, But we have to understand that He
is sovereign, He is in control. See. I know a
(19:26):
lot of people have chided me because of the fact that,
you know, I want to focus on principles more and
more and more so biblical principles than anything else. When
I start looking at the candidates that I want to follow,
I want to make sure that these individuals are you know,
there's some slight sense of humility in the individuals. I
can work with that, but there's a level of But
(19:48):
arrogance is a major turnoff because arrogance, arrogance shows total
self dependence and lack of dependence on the Lord. When
election time comes around, we look at our circumstances, and
sometimes they are bleak. Sometimes those circumstances are not good
(20:10):
at all, and we sometimes go to the wrong individuals
looking for redemption, looking for restoration, and sadly we make
bad choices. And the thing is that the Lord is
trying to get us all to that desperate moment when
we recognize and we realize, Lord, I have to trust you.
(20:37):
I have to trust you regardless of anything else going on.
You are my only hope, you are my only trust,
and it's you that I'm going to count on regardless
of what is happening around me, regardless of what's happening
to me. It almost likens me to the passage where
(20:59):
Yashiah was in the book with the with the disciples,
and the storm was overtaking the ship, you know, the
boat that they were in, and they were concerned that
the boat was going to capsize. He's sitting here and
he's laying down and he's he's resting. They were in
the presence of the Almighty. They were in the presence
of the Lord. They were their their creator, and they
(21:24):
were losing it. And that's the crazy part about it
is that sometimes people feel like I need to feel
God right next to me, or two or three are
gathering in the mist, then I know, like if I
go to church, then I know he's there and he
can hear me. He's he's he's on the present, He's everywhere.
He is everywhere. There's nowhere that he is not even
(21:48):
in Hell. His wrath is being meted out against those
who rebel against him. David says, where can I go
to escape your presence? So this idea that we we
have to create or cultivate this environment that God would
want to be a part of before he would turn around.
If if my people pray, I'll heal their land. If
(22:12):
if I if I create this, this this formula that's
gonna usher God in, If I rub the lamp and
and he's going through the Genie will show up and
and and give us everything that we want. It doesn't
work like that. He's sitting there and he's got he's
got full view, stadium view, front seat views, he's got
(22:35):
nose bleed views, he's got every view possible to see
the the the stadium of our hearts, the stadium of
our hearts, and everything else that's going on here. And
Joseph has been has had that same position to watch
the stadium of the hearts of his brothers to understand
(22:57):
are you truly sincere and the regret that you have
about the evil, wicked deeds that you have done. Because
think about this, he was sold into slavery, and they
knew he was going into Egypt, so they're basically going
to the scene of the crime. I bet you they've
(23:19):
done everything they can for as long as they can
to stay away from Egypt because some small semblance of
guilt let them know we did him wrong. And in
Egypt is where the evidence is, where the blood is
on our hands. Whether this whole idea that God is sovereign,
(23:44):
I don't care what you I don't care what you
do or what you plan to do. The Lord is
not The Lord is not in any way lost to
what's taking place, the machinations of the Democrats, the machinations
(24:05):
of Republicans, the maginations of straight people, the managing machinate,
machinations of people who are not straight, the machinations of
black people, the machinations of white people. He's not in
any way cut off. Honestly, He's been in control this
whole time, and we need to recognize that and truly
do what you know, Yeah, let's you know, let's let's
(24:30):
before I continue, let's let's let's really do what that
verse has said and stop messing around, because it's so
sad how we say this verse over and over and
over again. And I'm going to read it right from
the passage, and then let's see if we can humble ourselves,
(24:51):
humble ourselves as the Lord has called us, so that
as he decides to show up and bless us, we're
not here in stupidity. Oh yeah, so they put it
in Uh oh yeah, yeah, they slush us around. I apologize.
(25:16):
I tell you my people who will call by name,
would humble themselves, seek my face and turn from their
wicked ways. I don't know why it is that we
don't want to do that. Well, no, I do know why,
because of the fact that if we turn around and
we change our dispositions, or we finally abide in Torah,
(25:41):
that means that we have to reevaluate all that we
have done. It has this honored him in action and thought? Indeed,
and so much more. The Lord is calling to us
to change from and turn from our wicked ways. The
question is is are we willing to set Are we
willing to sacrifice all those things that we took pleasure
(26:02):
in order to honor him and glorify his name? Or
will we continue to live in rebellion. I want to
read this from his full thing, so thank you for
We're getting real close here, different style, but in order
(26:24):
givray I mean debt verse fourteen. Then if my people
who bear my name will humble themselves, will bear my
name first of all, basically says we truly are identified
(26:45):
in him. The title Christian does not mean that we're
identified in him, because there are a lot of Christians
who do not abide in His word. They have rejected
his word, they rejected the standards in Torah. They don't
even abide in some of the most simple passages in Torah.
(27:07):
They're they're widely accepting of everything with with zero the
only the only boundary that they establish is against people
who want to actually abide in the Word of God.
A lot of people who wear the who wear the uniform,
but are not part of the team. A lot of
people walking around in Christian jerseys, walking around in jerseys
(27:30):
saying that they're they're they're for the Messiah, They're for
the for Christ. They've got they've got the cross, they've
got the jersey, but they're not on the team. Like
they're fair fair weather fans who bear my name will
humble themselves, pray, seek my face, and turn from their
(27:51):
evil ways. I will hear from heaven forgive their sin
and heal their land. Wow. To hear from heaven means
that voices were uttered in repentance. To hear from heaven
(28:13):
means that there was a moment where people spoke up
and said what we done were what we have done
was wrong. The question is whether or not we want
to truly put ourselves in a spirit of humility and repentance,
or do we want to stay in a spirit of
(28:33):
hubris and rebellion the question, or that the decision is yours.
Talk to you after this break someone. First one, how abouts,
(28:58):
are those who reject the advice of the wicked? Don't
stand on the way of sinners, or sit where the
scoffers sit. I love this because it's basically saying that
the person does not want to associate with wickedness in
any way, from hearing, standing near, associating, nor being comfortable
enough to rest in its presence. First two says their
(29:21):
delight is innatternized Torah on his tor They meditate day
and night. In other words, they love the teachings of God,
and this is what they think about day and night.
They are like trees planted by the streams. They bear
their fruit in season, their leaves never wither. Everything they
do succeeds. First tree is basically hinting that there's life
(29:43):
in them, and it's not murky, stagnant water that passes
by them or fills them. It's flowing, life giving, clean water.
But verse four says, not so the wicked, who are
like chaff driven by the wind. Chaff it's a substitute
or it looks like or the imitation of wheat that
has no substance and has no value, and it's easily manipulated.
(30:06):
For this reason, the wicked won't stand up to the judgment,
nor will sinners at the gathering of the righteous. In
other words, there is no hope for those who reject
the teachings of Adenin, who reject his Torah. They will
not be able to stand, even though they think that
their gods, the Lord of creation, will humble them verse six.
For Adenai watches over the way of the righteous, but
(30:29):
the way of the wicked is doomed. In other words,
if our goal is to reject Adeni, his teachings, his Torah,
his rule, his order, that means that we will suffer
the consequences of living in no order and complete chaos,
facing his wrath for eternity. Why because we rejected his truth?
(31:00):
Hearing change one heartbeat at a time. Battle for Freedom
Welcome back everyone. I'm your host Watson Premier from Battle
for Freedom on muddra FIBR Radio. Today we're having a
really good discussion as we're in Genesis chapter forty five
(31:20):
and we're dealing with the whole idea of we are
family and reunited and it feels so good. Yes, Yolsa
finally confesses to who he is, and he's trying to
straight things out with his brothers because they're still in
the midst of a Famin five years to go. But
here is a part where we're dealing with this idea
of confession is good for the soul and there's about
(31:43):
to be healing. It's taking place right before our eyes.
So as we sit here and we continue to look
through this and before going to break, we were talking about,
you know, relooking at second chronicle seven fourteen and just
the whole idea of it being completely taken out of
contact next because people keep looking for healing without confession.
(32:04):
He will keep looking for healing and blessings without repentance.
And it just doesn't work like that. I mean literally
the whole idea when we look at when we look
at Torah and we look at the boundaries that have
been established for us, for family, for marriage, for so
much right, for living, for daily living, and when we
(32:27):
violate that, what what did you should say? Those who
love me keep my teachings, my commandments, Those who love
me keep my commandments. The commandments that he did not
put away, he did not abolish, He lived out for
(32:47):
us to see that it can be done. But if
we're operating under the illusion that that uh not being obedient,
or that that that that's no longer applicable to us
in the Old Testament, the Old Covenant, then we will
be we will not be reunited. No, No, the family
(33:09):
reunion we will have in heaven will be our one
way ticket to hell. It will be our one way
ticket to hell. Because the Lord did not say that
he abolished. He came to abolish the word, the teaching,
the law, the covenants. He did not come to abolish those.
(33:32):
And we need and you need to do a deep
dive on what fulfilled, fulfilled means, what it doesn't mean
in any way end it doesn't know what you mean abolished.
Literally in the very sentence he's saying, I did not
come to abolish for some strange reason, that the biggest
lie sold in Churchianity is that the law, the Covenant,
(33:57):
that Torah is no longer applicable in our lives. I
pray that you will be delivered from that deception before
it's too late. Ah, Lord, please help us. Mm hm, Oh, Lord,
help us, because I just it just breaks my heart
(34:17):
to know that he will continue to ignore what his
word says, and they're gonna there's gonna be a price
to pay. It's gonna be a price to pay for
this of ignoring what his word says. So let's let's
get back into this. So he was made over all
(34:41):
the sovereignty of God. We were talking about the sovereignty
of God. Hold on a second, I just got to
get someone tea for a second year. Oh that's so good, Ah, Lord,
forgive us. So as we sit here and we look
at this and we're talking about the sovereignty of God
and we're trying to be obedient to him and his word,
(35:05):
let's ask ourselves honestly, because we learn about what God's
word says, and it's no denying what he is his
word says. Can we ask ourselves why is it that
we're so determined not to abide? Why are we so
why are we so determined not to abide in his word?
(35:30):
You know? Can we can we just ask that because
the fact that He's expecting something of us and actually
what he's requiring of us is not that difficult. It's
not that difficult. Folks, ask yourselves. Take that time to
just do the self introspection, to do the introspection to
(35:54):
ask yourself, why is it that I don't want to abide?
Why is it that I don't want to follow? Why
is that I want to reject?
Speaker 1 (36:01):
Why?
Speaker 2 (36:01):
What is it about me that it continues to push
in me to be reject, rejectful, and disrespectful to the
lover of my soul and the redeemer of human humankind.
I think it's a question we want us all our
(36:22):
to ask ourselves. This is again Psalm forty Psalm one
oh six forty, verse forty seven. Save us out of
an eye our God gathers from among the nations, so
that we can thank your holy name and praise and
glory in praising you. Honestly, as I was saying that
last statement a few minutes ago, it just a thought
(36:43):
that came through my mind, is are we rejecting God
because he's learn letting certain people in? So if we've experienced,
if we experience personal hurt, harm and danger in life,
and there are people who have really hurt us, hurt
(37:06):
us specifically, hurt family members, hurt those who came before us, Like, honestly, honestly,
when I think about this, slavery was never a good thing,
not just in the United States, in any nation, slavery
was not a good thing. Non consensual slavery was never
a good thing. But when I see a lot of
(37:33):
a lot of people not to see here, a lot
of people from Black America, and I'm calling it Black
America specifically, because they identify as being black before they
identify being American. They identify it being black before being Christian.
They identify it being black before anything else. And most
of the people, a greater majority of those individuals, have
(37:56):
a lot of pent up anger and rage towards whites
who never touched them, never said a word towards them,
But they have a lot of bitterness and anger to
people who don't even know who they are. The level
(38:16):
of malevolence that people have against Donald Trump, I'm not
saying the guy is a good guy, or he's a
great guy or anything like that. Well, there are literally
people who hate him so much, like he literally came
into their house and defecated in every place. He defecated
on them while he was sleeping. When you can allow
(38:42):
someone to operate in your mind that much and have
so much control over your contentment that much, that one
you have two idols in your home. First is the
idol of the person is an idol, and there's a
statue of a person that you've poured all your hatred into.
(39:03):
That that is an object of worship, that where you
can unleash your wrath. But then your identity has become
an idol as well too, that you would raise yourself
to be so hateful and vindictive against a person you
can never confront in person, and confront a person who
(39:27):
never did anything to you, but something that you constructed
in your mind. You created a world of pain and regret,
I mean of pain and bitterness, and you live in
that world in light of the freedom that's offered to
you in the Lord. Are there been people who done
(39:50):
me wrong? Almost definitely? But I don't want to live
I don't want to live in that stupidity because continuing
to this, here's crazy part about it. I don't forgive
them because they haven't asked for forgiveness. I don't forgive
them because they have not asked for forgiveness, and I cannot.
(40:20):
Our account is in the rears. We have an imbalance
in our account. And the crazy part about it is
that they've been informed of the wrongs that they've been doing,
but they don't seem as though they've done They don't
see themselves as doing wrong. So why should I seek forgiveness?
Why should I keep to restore a relationship with people
(40:41):
who don't think they've done anything wrong? I mean, I'm
helping people. I'm helping. You don't buy that lie forgive
them if they don't ask for forgiveness. That's not Bible.
That's not Bible. Because you show me where that is
(41:03):
in the Bible. You show me where we could Because
if that is biblical, that means that God should never
hold anything against us. That means that we don't even
need to confess, even though Romans ten to nine says
confess with your mouth, even though the word says confess,
(41:25):
even though the word says seek to be forgiven, though
even though the word says have reconciliation, because reconciliation means
two parties coming together, and there was an offender, an
offendee or maybe both played both roles and to bring
that restoration, but it begins with the confession. To continue
(41:49):
to perpetuate that lie that you don't mean forgive even
though they don't ask for forgiveness. Anyone who teaches you
that stuff, run away from them because they're not teaching Bible.
They're they're they're teaching, they're cheeking, they're teaching devil soup
for the soul. Sorry, I just I can't stand these
(42:13):
these cliche these nice cliches that lead people into it.
Just it just leads people into a lot of deceptionalized
I'm sorry, or please please please help lea, please help people.
(42:38):
We've removed from that foolishness. Let's get back into his word. Sorry, ah,
that was the land of Egypt. I'm act is now Yeah,
here he is. Okay, this is Joseph now getting back
to helping his brothers because again there's a famine. Okay,
(43:01):
there's still a famine going on. Sorry, I just needed
to get that out. But verse nine, hurry up, go
to my father, tell him. Here is what your son,
Joseph says. God has made me lord over all of Egypt.
Come down to me and don't delay. You will live.
You will live in the land of Goshen and be
near me. You, your children, your grandchildren, flocks, herds, everything
(43:25):
you own. I will provide for you there so that
you won't become poverty stricken, you, your household and all
that you have because five years of famine are yet
to come. The Lord has put us there has been
a famine. There has been a spiritual, biblical famine in
the land for far too long. Churchianity has starved spiritually
(43:51):
starved people. There's a lot of activity taking place, as
a lot of Martha behavior being misconstrued as holiness, being
misconstrued as productive. All it is is a bunch of busyness,
a lot of activity and no worship, no relationship with
(44:11):
the Lord. There's a lot of business trans there's a
lot of activity transactions taking place, and there is no
actual faith and actual trust. I'm a free people up
because there's a famine in the land. Come to where
you will be fed. Come to where you will be fed,
(44:34):
rather than staying there in the barren wastelands. A lot
of us are in a lot of spiritual wastelands, barren wastelands,
and have not been fed for a very long time
because of church Yanity. A lot of cute programs going
on in church, but no true teaching and regurgitating the
(44:56):
same subjects over and over and over again. In the
word of God. It's much bigger than the liturgy driven
subject matter of what we've been slapped around, or the
programs of the convenient activities around the year, of what
we can do. Telling you folks, it's trying to wake
(45:17):
up and put a trying to put an end to
this stuff. Verse twelve. Here your own I see and
the eyes of my brother, my brother Benjamin, that it
is my own. It is my own mouth speaking to you.
Tell my father how honored I am in Egypt and
(45:37):
everything you have seen, and quickly bring my father down here.
Then he embraced his brother Benjamin and wept, and Beingjamin
wept on his neck, and he kissed all his brothers
and wept on them. After that, his brothers talked with him.
Because when think about this, remember when they were eating
(45:59):
and the Egyptians and the Hebrews never touched one another,
they didn't dine together. But this Egyptian who says he's
my brother, is literally becoming so intimate with me that
I can lay on him and we can both unleash
(46:20):
the frustrations and the disappointments that we have had and
now be healed and restored. An Egyptian kind of like
you remember the contention between the Jews and the Samerian Samaritans,
and it's this whole idea, how they marvel that the
good Samaritan would actually help a Jew. Well, here you
(46:41):
have this powerful Egyptian who's humbling himself before a Hebrew.
This truly is our brother. He knows what we did,
He's shown favor, he's showing kindness, he knows our father,
he knows everything that's going on, and he's saying that
he's even going to do more now for us. This
isn't just getting supplies. This is a family reunion. And
(47:04):
they are really ready and receptive. Now they feel free
to talk to him powerful verse sixteen. The report of
this reached Pharaoh's house. Yosh's brothers have come, and Pharaoh
and his servants were pleased. Pharaoh said to Yoseph, tell
(47:24):
your brothers, here is what you are to do. Load
up your animals, go to the land of Canaan. Getanan
Canaan that take your father and your families, and come
back to me. I will give you good property in Egypt,
and you will eat the fat of the land. M Ah, yes,
(47:54):
it is there. What you hear, It's just it's there, John, Yes,
you are hearing that correctly. As we sit here and
we look at this whole idea of the Lord basically
bringing restoration when we are obedient to the Lord, when
(48:20):
we are obedient to the Lord, and we're doing exactly
what he has called us to do, and it so
affects even the unbelieving world. When when the even the
unbelieving world sees the hand of the Lord in our lives,
(48:41):
they will go out of their way to make certain
that we are taken care of because they understand we're
being blessed through this individual. I mean, I agree with them,
but God's hand is truly on their lives. Now there
will be some who will not like it, and they
will go out of their way. And I think we
spend more time, We spend more time fearing those who
(49:01):
will come against us, rather than realizing the one who
stands with the, one who stands with us. Let's go
back to Roman Shepherd. If God could be for us,
who can stand against us? You know it? Just folks,
(49:29):
Please here what the Lord is saying. Here, what the
Lord is saying. He is so good, he is so wonderful.
Please please please respond before it's too late. Respond be
for it's too late. Let's continue this sixteen yes, the
(49:50):
verse nineteen, verse nineteen moreover, moreover, and this is an order.
Do this. Take wagons from the land of Egypt to
carry your little ones and your wives and your bring
your father and come. Don't worry about your stuff because
everything good in the land of Egypt is yours. Basically,
(50:15):
the pharaohs basically say no, no, no, you don't understand.
It is mandatory that you do exactly what I'm telling
you to do right now, because your safety, your health,
your well being is critical to my business, to my country,
to my being. See, we spend so much time trying
to adopt and be accepted by everyone else rather than
(50:38):
stand apart and be as what the Lord has called
us to be. Because when we're standing in who he
has called us to be, people recognize who we are
and whose we are, and they basically say, I have
to protect that person at all costs because that person
is will completely affect my interests for the post, so
(51:02):
I will protect that asset as best as possible. He
got a job any time. Sorry for the confusion, but
this is the Pharaoh's like, listen, don't don't delay do
what I'm telling you to do right now. I have
to protect you and and if it and and your happiness,
(51:24):
your contentment is key because if in any way you
are not able to function at peak efficiency, we suffer.
We suffer. It's like like a lot of businesses. They
they they do a lot of evaluations around the year,
evaluations see where people stay and and some some employees
(51:46):
that they value. They'll they'll they'll do a world they'll
do a company wide evaluation, right but ideally they're looking
for the feedback from the anonymous, feedback from the people
who really make the company move, and they're wanting to
make sure that those people are still content, but they'll
make it seem like they're concerned about everybody else. What
(52:09):
they really wanted to do is get the flavor in
the atmosphere of the people who matter most and really
are critical to the business needs. But they can't come
out then say will we want those people over there?
But we don't want you and here we arrogantly believe
it's all about us. The sons of Israel acted accordingly,
(52:30):
and Joseph gave them wagons as Pharaoh had ordered, and
gave them provisions for their journey. To each of them
he gave a lot a set of new clothes, but
to Bingaman he gave seven and a half pounds of
silver and five sets of new clothes. Likewise, to his father,
he sent ten donkeys loaded with the finest goods Egypt produced,
(52:52):
as well as ten female donkeys loaded with grain, bread,
and food for his father to eat on the return journey.
Thus he sent his brothers on their way, and they left.
He said to them, don't quarrel among yourselves while you're traveling. Yes,
don't fight, because if you stop to fight, that slows
(53:14):
you down from doing what I told you to do.
We're in the midst of a famine, and if you
have time to quarrel, if you spent waste time quarreling,
you will die. You don't recognize how intense this is
about to get. You think two years in as a
famine's bad. Five it's gonna be far worse, and people
(53:35):
will be ransacking you. People will be coming attacking you
because they're gonna see what you have. And if you
stop and sit there arguing, that means that you're not
moving and you're stagnant, and you're now you're able to
targets for those who are desperate h Verse twenty five.
(54:01):
I love this. Thank you Lord, Thank you Lord, Thank
you Lord, Thank you Lord. This is forty five twenty five.
So they went up out of Egypt, entered the land
of Katanon Hnna, and came to Yahakov, their father. They
told him Joseph is still alive. He is ruler over
(54:21):
the whole land of Egypt. He was stunned at the news.
He couldn't believe them, so they reported to him everything
Joseph had said to them. But it was only when
he saw the wagons which Joseph sent to carry him,
the spirit of Yahakov, their father, began to revive Israel.
Israel said, enough, my son, Joseph is still alive. I
(54:43):
must go and see him before I die there. But
it was our testimony confirms everything we say and who
we are. There are times that people will reject what
(55:05):
we say. We said things four or five years ago
that people didn't want to believe us, and they're coming
to fruition now. I think that's a good enough model
for us to understand and live by. Right now that
you focus on the truth, we focus on the truth.
Share nothing the truth, The whole truth and nothing but
the truth, and let the Lord be glorified. Okay, don't
(55:27):
worry about whether or not people going to receive the message.
Just continue to share the truth. Censorship will take place,
ridicule will take place. It doesn't matter. Share the truth
regardless because the people who are the people who are
ready to receive the truth will be ready to hear.
What did the Lord say, He who has an ear
(55:49):
to hear, let him hear. That's what you should have
said on multiple occasions, He who has an ear to hear,
let him hear. The Lord is good. It's interesting, you know.
When I opened up to look at second Chronicles seven fourteen,
they're at the bottom of the Hebrew Complete Jewish Bible.
(56:13):
There's a there's this passage actually that focuses on second
Chronicles seven fourteen. I want to actually spend son some
time with this. Dashuva translated as either repentant or returning,
has a specific, specific meaning in scripture and is clearly
outlined in Second Chronicles seven fourteen. If my people who
(56:35):
bear my name, who will humble themselves pray, seek my
face and turn from their evil ways, I will hear
from heaven or give their sin and heal their land.
The people were to show humility and respect before Hashim
a name, and pray. There is no single word for
prayer in Hebrew. Mentioned here is a specific type of prayer,
(56:59):
it palel, a prayer of turning within, of seeking his face.
This is a poetic way of saying that the people
must extend themselves to Hashem, to go after him and
turn from their from evil ways. The act of Tasuva
required not only humility in prayer, but an actual change
(57:20):
of behavior. The early Messianic followers of Yashua were commonly
known as a way, as they followed the way of
Hashem and his Messiah. From the Jewish perspective, to repent
means to return to following Torah in humility and respect. Oh,
(57:46):
you gotta love it, you have you have to love it.
Is because again there's a growth of people who were
following and who were in Torah. That it's it's waking
people beloved. It's putting people in a position where they
recognize there's truth here and this is not like the
stuff that I've been exposed to all these years of
(58:08):
my life. Churchianity. People are waking up and recognizing this
isn't fake. This isn't the posturing of the Pharisees and
Sadducees and everything like that. But there there's something different.
There's there's there's life here. And when people finally we
have that family reunion, you know, it's it's interesting. We
(58:29):
love that passage. Uh uh I said let us go
into the house of the Lord. This side when I said,
let us go into the house of the Lord. Right,
it's good that reunion with fellow brothers and sisters. Right,
I'm telling you, when there are people who are in Torah,
(58:51):
we're truth and obedience, not for show. We're truth and obedience.
That re union is a reunion. Would you cannot begin
to even imagine because there's a freedom, because many of
us have been taught at treated as freaks, have been
(59:13):
treated as outcasts, have been rejected, if perchance, sold into slavery.
I mean, think about that. The language in the last
five years, those who refuse to wear masks, those who
refused to get the job, they should go home and
die or be put in prison. That the people were
(59:34):
so strong against people having a different opinion and position
that they were willing for some to die. This was
the words of those who were pro the job. The
same things with Torah, Well, sorry, do you stand on
Triggering change one heartbeat at a time. Battle for Freedom.

Uh makes me think of a couple of songs. You know,
we are family. We are family and reunited and it
(01:00):
feels so good with it. Peaches and herbs. Peaches and
herbs or herbs or have you an a cult pronubts it.
Either way, it is like a reuniting, especially as we
get into his word and we cover what's really important
and talk about life that's given in his word. We're
going to be in Genesis chapter forty five today and
(01:20):
this is probably one of those moments that Joseph has
been waiting for. Joseph, We've been waiting for We've been
waiting for this, and let's have some fun before doing that.
Let's do a couple of these.

(02:54):
One more son of them actually, because this is important.
You need to get a son of them because they're
going to focus on the larger sun ovens and there's
only less than a couple of one hundred left. If
you want to get a son oven, now's the time
to get.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Hey, my name's Tripp and I want to introduce you
the Sun Oven. This is our all American son oven.
We've been making these for the last thirty five years.
We're in one hundred and twenty six different countries all
over the world, and basically we call this a solar
crock pot and it's used to be able to just
put your food in there and slow cook it with
the power of the sun. You can never burn, sports
or dry anything out inside the sun Oven. Once you
(03:28):
put it in, the sun reflects all of these reflectors
in through the glass into the inner chamber, and it
reaches temperatures between three hundred and three hundred and fifty degrees. Really,
the design is very simple. It's like the greenhouse effect.
If you got in your car during the summer and
it's really really hot, that's what's happening inside the sun oven.
You know, anything you cook in your regular oven, you
can cook inside the sun of it. You can use
(03:49):
any of your existing pots and pans if they'll fit
in here, you can cook with them in here, just
like you do in your regular oven. It's designed for
you to be able to cook your meal out with
the power of the sign and literally the longer you
keeps up in here, the more juicy and tender it is.
So that's a quick introduction to the sun open.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Thank you. Yes, we can introduct into the sun oven.
Get your soft one, because seriously, things are going to
get weird and you need to have a means of
cooking and go from there. It's interesting you know, we'll
talk about that another time. Right now, I really want
to get us focused with one more and then we'll
get into today's topic.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
Hello, I'm doctor Lee at horizontal Hive dot com and
I keep this naturally and then everything starts by catching
a local freeze swarm of honey bees. You put a
small bee hive like that on the tree in the springtime,
just as birds move into birdhouses, bees we'll move into
and a little high like that. After that, you take
the frames, put them in a bigger box.
Speaker 6 (04:47):
They expand, They collect tiny from the flowers and make
good time from you for you.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
And it can be as simple as that.
Speaker 6 (04:54):
No sugar fitting, no chemical treatments. I'm doing it for
a living, and there are so many people people who
do the same thing. You can learn more in the
book Keeping Bees with a Smile, And that's exactly that,
doing natural beekeeping and smiling the same.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Time, natural beekeeping and smiling at the same time. Doctor
Leo will be with Doug and Stacy at their their
conference this year again, Homesteading Conference out in Missouri. If
you can make the trip out there, I think it'd
be well well worth it, and a lot of amazing
people you can check out. If you go check out
the Home Setting Conference, go look into Doug and Stacy.
(05:29):
They are on YouTube. You can and I'm sure that
if you go and look at any of their videos,
they'll tell you a lot about the Home Setting Conference.
And it may not still it may not be too
late to still get there. Look into it. A lot
of great people and a personal request for you as
well too. One of the gentlemen I had the chance
(05:50):
to meet when I was over there in there, he
came out with his wife had passed away. He was
a pretty good guy. Actually, i'd be asking you fast prayers.
We'll talk more about it when we come back from
the break, because I really want to cover this. And
it's amazing when you learn and you meet really cool
(06:10):
people and you find out some of the challenges that
they experience, and sometimes they go through a lot, and
then when they finally let you know, it's like it's
amazing to see how strong they were able to stand
in the midst of the greatest challenges they face in life.
And honestly, I kind of see that even in the
story today with our family and reunited, and it feels
so good because this is the moment that Joseph reveals himself,
(06:33):
because remember last week, Joseph and you know Judah, he
was confessing that one of the brothers are dead, you know,
and and my father, you know, we we can't go
back without him because it would have killed my father
if you if you keep Benjamin here, Benjamin here with you,
and we don't want to see our father go to
(06:55):
the grave in pain. They finally did the confession that
they need tod It's like, you know, they say, confession
is good for the soul. Well, this was long overdue
of what they did to their brother. And now he's
at this he's at a tipping point now the charade.
He can't hold up the charade any longer. So let's
(07:16):
look and see what happens here with respect to you know. Well,
the first verse I want to share actually before we
get into the story, is this, save us out, Save
us out of Nye, our God, gather us from among
the nations so that we can thank your holy name
and glory and glory in praising you. You know, this
(07:40):
is you know that there's a chief that I were
talking about, this about the the verse that's always taken
out of context. What is that Second Chronicles seven fourteen,
those if my people call by name, will pray and
I'll heal their I'll heal their land. But they miss
key verses in that like seek my face, humble themselves,
(08:03):
turn from their wicked ways. Now let's let's let's look
at this. Let's let's look at this, because this is
exactly what the brothers of Yoseph have done. They humble
themselves twice now to be in and seek the face
of the pharaoh, of the Pharaoh of Egypt or his
(08:24):
assistant or sustenance for their family. Okay, they humbled themselves,
they sought his face, and they repented, because now they're
wanting to turn from their wicked ways. We are confessing
the evils that were in our heart. And guess what
he says, I will hear and I will I will
(08:47):
heal their land. I mean, if you would to, if
you would to see Second Radical seven fourteen. In this
full culmination, it is literally these past three or four
chapters of Joseph dealing with his brothers who did him wrong.
And then once once the and they experienced a little
grace before the repentance and the confession. But they're gonna
(09:12):
receive some bigger grace as a result of their full confession.
And now Joseph about to reveal who he is. But
I love this because of the fact that it's like
if we if we see we seek the Lord in
the midst of no matter what the evil nations are doing,
we understand that he is our sustenance, He is out
(09:33):
He is our very essence, our hope, our hope in
an ever, ever present trouble, whenever there's trouble that's around.
It's not saying that we'll be delivered from the trouble,
but we're attached to and we're anchored to and we're
holding on and he's holding us more important than anything
else in the midst of our troubles, He's he's the
(09:56):
standard foundation. He's a solid rock foundation in the midst
of the crashing waves and everything else that you can imagine.
And he doesn't erode like cliffs on the edge of
seashore lines. He doesn't erode. He stands strong. But this
is the thing. The thing about it is like we
wanted to be in the spirit of praising, thanking Him,
(10:18):
thanking his Holy name, and praise and praising him with
everything we have everything has breath. Praised the Lord, Praise
the Lord. H I just got to just love it.
Those called by his name and the brothers of Joseph
(10:38):
have done exactly what that full verse says, humble themselves
sought his face and turned from their wicked ways. Now
the healing. This is so beautiful, This is so so beautiful.
Oh I love it. I love it. I love it,
I love it, I love it. Oh, so we have
(11:03):
sorry project in my brains here at last, verse one,
At last, Joseph could no longer control his feelings in
front of his attendants and cried, get everyone away from me,
so no one else was with him. When Joseph revealed
to his brothers who he was, he wept aloud, and
(11:23):
the Egyptians heard, and Pharaoh's household heard. You know, after
all this time, like these are the pre stages of
vindication that they confess. They confess that what we did
to our brother was wrong, and what would happen to
(11:45):
what we've been doing to our father has been wrong.
And it's a possibility that they could have been doing
things to Benjamin Benjamin that could have been wrong as well.
And now Joseph is in a position that the dreams
that scared them, or that he that they mocked him for,
have come to fruition through the through the beating and
(12:08):
the and the imprisonment and the cistern, and then sold
into slavery, and then it falsely accused of rape and
and and and locked in prison, multiple imprisonments, imprisonments by
his brother, first before sold into slavery, imprisonment when he
was basically sold to to oh my goodness, not Pharaoh Potiphar,
(12:32):
and the false imprisonment and falsely accusation from his wife
and then imprisonment for something he never did do. And
now here it is the very the very people who
who started the who the catalysts who hit the catastrophes
in his life, are now before him, bringing him long
(12:52):
overdue healing because of their confession. Oh Glory to God.
I mean, this is key here, This is key because yeah, yeah, yeah,
we're gonna do this. We're gonna do this because there's
this thing about this false, this false churchianity, devilish thing
(13:16):
out there saying forgive them even if they don't ask
for forgiveness. Forgive them if they even if they don't
ask for forgiveness. That is not biblical. That is not
biblical at all. See the Lord the Word in his
(13:42):
truth will lead us either to repentance or rebellion. We'll
either receive the truth and do what is necessary, or
we will reject the truth and continue to live on
our own ways, believing that we are God unto ourselves.
What has happened is that the Lord has humbled them
(14:03):
to the point that they're standing for their own brother
that they've wronged, having no idea who he is, and
they're finally bringing him the healing that they needed because
they confessed. They were willing to confess to a total
stranger of the wicked deeds in their hearts and the
(14:24):
pains that they have caused. They feel guilt, they feel remorse,
they re feel repentance. They understand that the judgment of
what is transpired. We deserve what's happening to us, and
if it's not enough, give us more judgment. Please, we
have done wrong. And this idea that when someone finally confesses,
(14:50):
someone finally asked for forget you know, they repent right
before you. Now, they couldn't ask Joseph for forgiveness because
they thought he was dead. Uh, they thought he was
dead oh mm hmmmm. And I'm telling you that we
(15:15):
get to this point where there are times we just
got to shut up, because once we get silent and
we allow the Lord to heal us. In the midst
of this stuff, he works on the hearts of the
other individuals, and some slated for destruction and some slated
(15:37):
for redemption. The choice is theirs on whether or not
they will respond to his truth in the correct way.
Joseph said verse three, Yosef said to his brothers, I
am Yoseph, is it true that my father is still alive.
His brothers couldn't answer him. They were so dumbfound that
(15:58):
it's seeing him. He also said to his brothers, please
come closer, and they came closer. He said, I am Joseph,
your brother whom you sold into Egypt. But don't be
sad you sold me into slavery here, slavery here, or
angry at yourselves, because it is it was God who
(16:18):
sent me ahead of you to preserve life. This is
a confession of his soul. This is what the Lord
has done. Hey, John, thank you for joining Carry, Thank
you for joining and being part of the program over
there in the world or Facebook, as he can now
he is now free. He is now unburdened from holding
(16:40):
back the truth as long as he could in everything
that he has restrained himself because he had to learn,
he had to know exactly what's going on. And you
know what, when people are hungry, they don't continue to lie.
When people are desperate, they don't continue to lie. Only
sick a fan do that. Only twisted narciss stisistic individuals
(17:04):
continue to lie when you know, when they know that
they're busted. Only narcissistic, twisted people continue to flip out
when they know that they're they've been busted. Oh Lord,
(17:25):
help us. I just I'm just thank you, Lord, thank you,
thank you Lord. And I pray that that helps individuals
to do as well. I hope that helps people. It's this,
it's this beautiful thing that is this confession, confession that
the freedom that Joseph now has because he can confess
(17:48):
to his brothers, Yeah, you wanted to do this to me,
and you did do this to me, But understand God
was over me regardless of what you had done. Whatever
you're with and machinations and plants were Look how God
gets glory in what you did. But he had another
plan for me. That's just so stinking beautiful. I hope
(18:18):
that helped someone. Verse six, it says, now because we're
talking about the sovereignty of God now here. I love
this because he says, the famine has been over over
the land for the last two years, and for yet
another five years there will be neither plowing nor harvests.
(18:40):
God sent me ahead of you to ensure that you
will you will have descendants on earth, and to save
your lives in a great deliverance. So it was not
you who sent me here, but God. And He has
made me a father to Pharaoh, lord of all his
household and whole household, and ruler over the whole whole
(19:03):
land of Egypt. And so when we sit here and
we talk about the sovereignty of God, I know, you know,
we just finished a crazy election season. I know many
of us are probably already even worried and concerned about
what in the world is twenty twenty eight going to
look like. Right, But we have to understand that He
is sovereign, He is in control. See. I know a
(19:26):
lot of people have chided me because of the fact that,
you know, I want to focus on principles more and
more and more so biblical principles than anything else. When
I start looking at the candidates that I want to follow,
I want to make sure that these individuals are you know,
there's some slight sense of humility in the individuals. I
can work with that, but there's a level of But
(19:48):
arrogance is a major turnoff because arrogance, arrogance shows total
self dependence and lack of dependence on the Lord. When
election time comes around, we look at our circumstances, and
sometimes they are bleak. Sometimes those circumstances are not good
(20:10):
at all, and we sometimes go to the wrong individuals
looking for redemption, looking for restoration, and sadly we make
bad choices. And the thing is that the Lord is
trying to get us all to that desperate moment when
we recognize and we realize, Lord, I have to trust you.
(20:37):
I have to trust you regardless of anything else going on.
You are my only hope, you are my only trust,
and it's you that I'm going to count on regardless
of what is happening around me, regardless of what's happening
to me. It almost likens me to the passage where
(20:59):
Yashiah was in the book with the with the disciples,
and the storm was overtaking the ship, you know, the
boat that they were in, and they were concerned that
the boat was going to capsize. He's sitting here and
he's laying down and he's he's resting. They were in
the presence of the Almighty. They were in the presence
of the Lord. They were their their creator, and they
(21:24):
were losing it. And that's the crazy part about it
is that sometimes people feel like I need to feel
God right next to me, or two or three are
gathering in the mist, then I know, like if I
go to church, then I know he's there and he
can hear me. He's he's he's on the present, He's everywhere.
He is everywhere. There's nowhere that he is not even
(21:48):
in Hell. His wrath is being meted out against those
who rebel against him. David says, where can I go
to escape your presence? So this idea that we we
have to create or cultivate this environment that God would
want to be a part of before he would turn around.
If if my people pray, I'll heal their land. If
(22:12):
if I if I create this, this this formula that's
gonna usher God in, If I rub the lamp and
and he's going through the Genie will show up and
and and give us everything that we want. It doesn't
work like that. He's sitting there and he's got he's
got full view, stadium view, front seat views, he's got
(22:35):
nose bleed views, he's got every view possible to see
the the the stadium of our hearts, the stadium of
our hearts, and everything else that's going on here. And
Joseph has been has had that same position to watch
the stadium of the hearts of his brothers to understand
(22:57):
are you truly sincere and the regret that you have
about the evil, wicked deeds that you have done. Because
think about this, he was sold into slavery, and they
knew he was going into Egypt, so they're basically going
to the scene of the crime. I bet you they've
(23:19):
done everything they can for as long as they can
to stay away from Egypt because some small semblance of
guilt let them know we did him wrong. And in
Egypt is where the evidence is, where the blood is
on our hands. Whether this whole idea that God is sovereign,
(23:44):
I don't care what you I don't care what you
do or what you plan to do. The Lord is
not The Lord is not in any way lost to
what's taking place, the machinations of the Democrats, the machinations
(24:05):
of Republicans, the maginations of straight people, the managing machinate,
machinations of people who are not straight, the machinations of
black people, the machinations of white people. He's not in
any way cut off. Honestly, He's been in control this
whole time, and we need to recognize that and truly
do what you know, Yeah, let's you know, let's let's
(24:30):
before I continue, let's let's let's really do what that
verse has said and stop messing around, because it's so
sad how we say this verse over and over and
over again. And I'm going to read it right from
the passage, and then let's see if we can humble ourselves,
(24:51):
humble ourselves as the Lord has called us, so that
as he decides to show up and bless us, we're
not here in stupidity. Oh yeah, so they put it
in Uh oh yeah, yeah, they slush us around. I apologize.
(25:16):
I tell you my people who will call by name,
would humble themselves, seek my face and turn from their
wicked ways. I don't know why it is that we
don't want to do that. Well, no, I do know why,
because of the fact that if we turn around and
we change our dispositions, or we finally abide in Torah,
(25:41):
that means that we have to reevaluate all that we
have done. It has this honored him in action and thought? Indeed,
and so much more. The Lord is calling to us
to change from and turn from our wicked ways. The
question is is are we willing to set Are we
willing to sacrifice all those things that we took pleasure
(26:02):
in order to honor him and glorify his name? Or
will we continue to live in rebellion. I want to
read this from his full thing, so thank you for
We're getting real close here, different style, but in order
(26:24):
givray I mean debt verse fourteen. Then if my people
who bear my name will humble themselves, will bear my
name first of all, basically says we truly are identified
(26:45):
in him. The title Christian does not mean that we're
identified in him, because there are a lot of Christians
who do not abide in His word. They have rejected
his word, they rejected the standards in Torah. They don't
even abide in some of the most simple passages in Torah.
(27:07):
They're they're widely accepting of everything with with zero the
only the only boundary that they establish is against people
who want to actually abide in the Word of God.
A lot of people who wear the who wear the uniform,
but are not part of the team. A lot of
people walking around in Christian jerseys, walking around in jerseys
(27:30):
saying that they're they're they're for the Messiah, They're for
the for Christ. They've got they've got the cross, they've
got the jersey, but they're not on the team. Like
they're fair fair weather fans who bear my name will
humble themselves, pray, seek my face, and turn from their
(27:51):
evil ways. I will hear from heaven forgive their sin
and heal their land. Wow. To hear from heaven means
that voices were uttered in repentance. To hear from heaven
(28:13):
means that there was a moment where people spoke up
and said what we done were what we have done
was wrong. The question is whether or not we want
to truly put ourselves in a spirit of humility and repentance,
or do we want to stay in a spirit of
(28:33):
hubris and rebellion the question, or that the decision is yours.
Talk to you after this break someone. First one, how abouts,
(28:58):
are those who reject the advice of the wicked? Don't
stand on the way of sinners, or sit where the
scoffers sit. I love this because it's basically saying that
the person does not want to associate with wickedness in
any way, from hearing, standing near, associating, nor being comfortable
enough to rest in its presence. First two says their
(29:21):
delight is innatternized Torah on his tor They meditate day
and night. In other words, they love the teachings of God,
and this is what they think about day and night.
They are like trees planted by the streams. They bear
their fruit in season, their leaves never wither. Everything they
do succeeds. First tree is basically hinting that there's life
(29:43):
in them, and it's not murky, stagnant water that passes
by them or fills them. It's flowing, life giving, clean water.
But verse four says, not so the wicked, who are
like chaff driven by the wind. Chaff it's a substitute
or it looks like or the imitation of wheat that
has no substance and has no value, and it's easily manipulated.
(30:06):
For this reason, the wicked won't stand up to the judgment,
nor will sinners at the gathering of the righteous. In
other words, there is no hope for those who reject
the teachings of Adenin, who reject his Torah. They will
not be able to stand, even though they think that
their gods, the Lord of creation, will humble them verse six.
For Adenai watches over the way of the righteous, but
(30:29):
the way of the wicked is doomed. In other words,
if our goal is to reject Adeni, his teachings, his Torah,
his rule, his order, that means that we will suffer
the consequences of living in no order and complete chaos,
facing his wrath for eternity. Why because we rejected his truth?
(31:00):
Hearing change one heartbeat at a time. Battle for Freedom
Welcome back everyone. I'm your host Watson Premier from Battle
for Freedom on muddra FIBR Radio. Today we're having a
really good discussion as we're in Genesis chapter forty five
(31:20):
and we're dealing with the whole idea of we are
family and reunited and it feels so good. Yes, Yolsa
finally confesses to who he is, and he's trying to
straight things out with his brothers because they're still in
the midst of a Famin five years to go. But
here is a part where we're dealing with this idea
of confession is good for the soul and there's about
(31:43):
to be healing. It's taking place right before our eyes.
So as we sit here and we continue to look
through this and before going to break, we were talking about,
you know, relooking at second chronicle seven fourteen and just
the whole idea of it being completely taken out of
contact next because people keep looking for healing without confession.
(32:04):
He will keep looking for healing and blessings without repentance.
And it just doesn't work like that. I mean literally
the whole idea when we look at when we look
at Torah and we look at the boundaries that have
been established for us, for family, for marriage, for so
much right, for living, for daily living, and when we
(32:27):
violate that, what what did you should say? Those who
love me keep my teachings, my commandments, Those who love
me keep my commandments. The commandments that he did not
put away, he did not abolish, He lived out for
(32:47):
us to see that it can be done. But if
we're operating under the illusion that that uh not being obedient,
or that that that that's no longer applicable to us
in the Old Testament, the Old Covenant, then we will
be we will not be reunited. No, No, the family
(33:09):
reunion we will have in heaven will be our one
way ticket to hell. It will be our one way
ticket to hell. Because the Lord did not say that
he abolished. He came to abolish the word, the teaching,
the law, the covenants. He did not come to abolish those.
(33:32):
And we need and you need to do a deep
dive on what fulfilled, fulfilled means, what it doesn't mean
in any way end it doesn't know what you mean abolished.
Literally in the very sentence he's saying, I did not
come to abolish for some strange reason, that the biggest
lie sold in Churchianity is that the law, the Covenant,
(33:57):
that Torah is no longer applicable in our lives. I
pray that you will be delivered from that deception before
it's too late. Ah, Lord, please help us. Mm hm, Oh, Lord,
help us, because I just it just breaks my heart
(34:17):
to know that he will continue to ignore what his
word says, and they're gonna there's gonna be a price
to pay. It's gonna be a price to pay for
this of ignoring what his word says. So let's let's
get back into this. So he was made over all
(34:41):
the sovereignty of God. We were talking about the sovereignty
of God. Hold on a second, I just got to
get someone tea for a second year. Oh that's so good, Ah, Lord,
forgive us. So as we sit here and we look
at this and we're talking about the sovereignty of God
and we're trying to be obedient to him and his word,
(35:05):
let's ask ourselves honestly, because we learn about what God's
word says, and it's no denying what he is his
word says. Can we ask ourselves why is it that
we're so determined not to abide? Why are we so
why are we so determined not to abide in his word?
(35:30):
You know? Can we can we just ask that because
the fact that He's expecting something of us and actually
what he's requiring of us is not that difficult. It's
not that difficult. Folks, ask yourselves. Take that time to
just do the self introspection, to do the introspection to
(35:54):
ask yourself, why is it that I don't want to abide?
Why is it that I don't want to follow? Why
is that I want to reject?
Speaker 1 (36:01):
Why?
Speaker 2 (36:01):
What is it about me that it continues to push
in me to be reject, rejectful, and disrespectful to the
lover of my soul and the redeemer of human humankind.
I think it's a question we want us all our
(36:22):
to ask ourselves. This is again Psalm forty Psalm one
oh six forty, verse forty seven. Save us out of
an eye our God gathers from among the nations, so
that we can thank your holy name and praise and
glory in praising you. Honestly, as I was saying that
last statement a few minutes ago, it just a thought
(36:43):
that came through my mind, is are we rejecting God
because he's learn letting certain people in? So if we've experienced,
if we experience personal hurt, harm and danger in life,
and there are people who have really hurt us, hurt
(37:06):
us specifically, hurt family members, hurt those who came before us, Like, honestly, honestly,
when I think about this, slavery was never a good thing,
not just in the United States, in any nation, slavery
was not a good thing. Non consensual slavery was never
a good thing. But when I see a lot of
(37:33):
a lot of people not to see here, a lot
of people from Black America, and I'm calling it Black
America specifically, because they identify as being black before they
identify being American. They identify it being black before being Christian.
They identify it being black before anything else. And most
of the people, a greater majority of those individuals, have
(37:56):
a lot of pent up anger and rage towards whites
who never touched them, never said a word towards them,
But they have a lot of bitterness and anger to
people who don't even know who they are. The level
(38:16):
of malevolence that people have against Donald Trump, I'm not
saying the guy is a good guy, or he's a
great guy or anything like that. Well, there are literally
people who hate him so much, like he literally came
into their house and defecated in every place. He defecated
on them while he was sleeping. When you can allow
(38:42):
someone to operate in your mind that much and have
so much control over your contentment that much, that one
you have two idols in your home. First is the
idol of the person is an idol, and there's a
statue of a person that you've poured all your hatred into.
(39:03):
That that is an object of worship, that where you
can unleash your wrath. But then your identity has become
an idol as well too, that you would raise yourself
to be so hateful and vindictive against a person you
can never confront in person, and confront a person who
(39:27):
never did anything to you, but something that you constructed
in your mind. You created a world of pain and regret,
I mean of pain and bitterness, and you live in
that world in light of the freedom that's offered to
you in the Lord. Are there been people who done
(39:50):
me wrong? Almost definitely? But I don't want to live
I don't want to live in that stupidity because continuing
to this, here's crazy part about it. I don't forgive
them because they haven't asked for forgiveness. I don't forgive
them because they have not asked for forgiveness, and I cannot.
(40:20):
Our account is in the rears. We have an imbalance
in our account. And the crazy part about it is
that they've been informed of the wrongs that they've been doing,
but they don't seem as though they've done They don't
see themselves as doing wrong. So why should I seek forgiveness?
Why should I keep to restore a relationship with people
(40:41):
who don't think they've done anything wrong? I mean, I'm
helping people. I'm helping. You don't buy that lie forgive
them if they don't ask for forgiveness. That's not Bible.
That's not Bible. Because you show me where that is
(41:03):
in the Bible. You show me where we could Because
if that is biblical, that means that God should never
hold anything against us. That means that we don't even
need to confess, even though Romans ten to nine says
confess with your mouth, even though the word says confess,
(41:25):
even though the word says seek to be forgiven, though
even though the word says have reconciliation, because reconciliation means
two parties coming together, and there was an offender, an
offendee or maybe both played both roles and to bring
that restoration, but it begins with the confession. To continue
(41:49):
to perpetuate that lie that you don't mean forgive even
though they don't ask for forgiveness. Anyone who teaches you
that stuff, run away from them because they're not teaching Bible.
They're they're they're teaching, they're cheeking, they're teaching devil soup
for the soul. Sorry, I just I can't stand these
(42:13):
these cliche these nice cliches that lead people into it.
Just it just leads people into a lot of deceptionalized
I'm sorry, or please please please help lea, please help people.
(42:38):
We've removed from that foolishness. Let's get back into his word. Sorry, ah,
that was the land of Egypt. I'm act is now Yeah,
here he is. Okay, this is Joseph now getting back
to helping his brothers because again there's a famine. Okay,
(43:01):
there's still a famine going on. Sorry, I just needed
to get that out. But verse nine, hurry up, go
to my father, tell him. Here is what your son,
Joseph says. God has made me lord over all of Egypt.
Come down to me and don't delay. You will live.
You will live in the land of Goshen and be
near me. You, your children, your grandchildren, flocks, herds, everything
(43:25):
you own. I will provide for you there so that
you won't become poverty stricken, you, your household and all
that you have because five years of famine are yet
to come. The Lord has put us there has been
a famine. There has been a spiritual, biblical famine in
the land for far too long. Churchianity has starved spiritually
(43:51):
starved people. There's a lot of activity taking place, as
a lot of Martha behavior being misconstrued as holiness, being
misconstrued as productive. All it is is a bunch of busyness,
a lot of activity and no worship, no relationship with
(44:11):
the Lord. There's a lot of business trans there's a
lot of activity transactions taking place, and there is no
actual faith and actual trust. I'm a free people up
because there's a famine in the land. Come to where
you will be fed. Come to where you will be fed,
(44:34):
rather than staying there in the barren wastelands. A lot
of us are in a lot of spiritual wastelands, barren wastelands,
and have not been fed for a very long time
because of church Yanity. A lot of cute programs going
on in church, but no true teaching and regurgitating the
(44:56):
same subjects over and over and over again. In the
word of God. It's much bigger than the liturgy driven
subject matter of what we've been slapped around, or the
programs of the convenient activities around the year, of what
we can do. Telling you folks, it's trying to wake
(45:17):
up and put a trying to put an end to
this stuff. Verse twelve. Here your own I see and
the eyes of my brother, my brother Benjamin, that it
is my own. It is my own mouth speaking to you.
Tell my father how honored I am in Egypt and
(45:37):
everything you have seen, and quickly bring my father down here.
Then he embraced his brother Benjamin and wept, and Beingjamin
wept on his neck, and he kissed all his brothers
and wept on them. After that, his brothers talked with him.
Because when think about this, remember when they were eating
(45:59):
and the Egyptians and the Hebrews never touched one another,
they didn't dine together. But this Egyptian who says he's
my brother, is literally becoming so intimate with me that
I can lay on him and we can both unleash
(46:20):
the frustrations and the disappointments that we have had and
now be healed and restored. An Egyptian kind of like
you remember the contention between the Jews and the Samerian Samaritans,
and it's this whole idea, how they marvel that the
good Samaritan would actually help a Jew. Well, here you
(46:41):
have this powerful Egyptian who's humbling himself before a Hebrew.
This truly is our brother. He knows what we did,
He's shown favor, he's showing kindness, he knows our father,
he knows everything that's going on, and he's saying that
he's even going to do more now for us. This
isn't just getting supplies. This is a family reunion. And
(47:04):
they are really ready and receptive. Now they feel free
to talk to him powerful verse sixteen. The report of
this reached Pharaoh's house. Yosh's brothers have come, and Pharaoh
and his servants were pleased. Pharaoh said to Yoseph, tell
(47:24):
your brothers, here is what you are to do. Load
up your animals, go to the land of Canaan. Getanan
Canaan that take your father and your families, and come
back to me. I will give you good property in Egypt,
and you will eat the fat of the land. M Ah, yes,
(47:54):
it is there. What you hear, It's just it's there, John, Yes,
you are hearing that correctly. As we sit here and
we look at this whole idea of the Lord basically
bringing restoration when we are obedient to the Lord, when
(48:20):
we are obedient to the Lord, and we're doing exactly
what he has called us to do, and it so
affects even the unbelieving world. When when the even the
unbelieving world sees the hand of the Lord in our lives,
(48:41):
they will go out of their way to make certain
that we are taken care of because they understand we're
being blessed through this individual. I mean, I agree with them,
but God's hand is truly on their lives. Now there
will be some who will not like it, and they
will go out of their way. And I think we
spend more time, We spend more time fearing those who
(49:01):
will come against us, rather than realizing the one who
stands with the, one who stands with us. Let's go
back to Roman Shepherd. If God could be for us,
who can stand against us? You know it? Just folks,
(49:29):
Please here what the Lord is saying. Here, what the
Lord is saying. He is so good, he is so wonderful.
Please please please respond before it's too late. Respond be
for it's too late. Let's continue this sixteen yes, the
(49:50):
verse nineteen, verse nineteen moreover, moreover, and this is an order.
Do this. Take wagons from the land of Egypt to
carry your little ones and your wives and your bring
your father and come. Don't worry about your stuff because
everything good in the land of Egypt is yours. Basically,
(50:15):
the pharaohs basically say no, no, no, you don't understand.
It is mandatory that you do exactly what I'm telling
you to do right now, because your safety, your health,
your well being is critical to my business, to my country,
to my being. See, we spend so much time trying
to adopt and be accepted by everyone else rather than
(50:38):
stand apart and be as what the Lord has called
us to be. Because when we're standing in who he
has called us to be, people recognize who we are
and whose we are, and they basically say, I have
to protect that person at all costs because that person
is will completely affect my interests for the post, so
(51:02):
I will protect that asset as best as possible. He
got a job any time. Sorry for the confusion, but
this is the Pharaoh's like, listen, don't don't delay do
what I'm telling you to do right now. I have
to protect you and and if it and and your happiness,
(51:24):
your contentment is key because if in any way you
are not able to function at peak efficiency, we suffer.
We suffer. It's like like a lot of businesses. They
they they do a lot of evaluations around the year,
evaluations see where people stay and and some some employees
(51:46):
that they value. They'll they'll they'll do a world they'll
do a company wide evaluation, right but ideally they're looking
for the feedback from the anonymous, feedback from the people
who really make the company move, and they're wanting to
make sure that those people are still content, but they'll
make it seem like they're concerned about everybody else. What
(52:09):
they really wanted to do is get the flavor in
the atmosphere of the people who matter most and really
are critical to the business needs. But they can't come
out then say will we want those people over there?
But we don't want you and here we arrogantly believe
it's all about us. The sons of Israel acted accordingly,
(52:30):
and Joseph gave them wagons as Pharaoh had ordered, and
gave them provisions for their journey. To each of them
he gave a lot a set of new clothes, but
to Bingaman he gave seven and a half pounds of
silver and five sets of new clothes. Likewise, to his father,
he sent ten donkeys loaded with the finest goods Egypt produced,
(52:52):
as well as ten female donkeys loaded with grain, bread,
and food for his father to eat on the return journey.
Thus he sent his brothers on their way, and they left.
He said to them, don't quarrel among yourselves while you're traveling. Yes,
don't fight, because if you stop to fight, that slows
(53:14):
you down from doing what I told you to do.
We're in the midst of a famine, and if you
have time to quarrel, if you spent waste time quarreling,
you will die. You don't recognize how intense this is
about to get. You think two years in as a
famine's bad. Five it's gonna be far worse, and people
(53:35):
will be ransacking you. People will be coming attacking you
because they're gonna see what you have. And if you
stop and sit there arguing, that means that you're not
moving and you're stagnant, and you're now you're able to
targets for those who are desperate h Verse twenty five.
(54:01):
I love this. Thank you Lord, Thank you Lord, Thank
you Lord, Thank you Lord. This is forty five twenty five.
So they went up out of Egypt, entered the land
of Katanon Hnna, and came to Yahakov, their father. They
told him Joseph is still alive. He is ruler over
(54:21):
the whole land of Egypt. He was stunned at the news.
He couldn't believe them, so they reported to him everything
Joseph had said to them. But it was only when
he saw the wagons which Joseph sent to carry him,
the spirit of Yahakov, their father, began to revive Israel.
Israel said, enough, my son, Joseph is still alive. I
(54:43):
must go and see him before I die there. But
it was our testimony confirms everything we say and who
we are. There are times that people will reject what
(55:05):
we say. We said things four or five years ago
that people didn't want to believe us, and they're coming
to fruition now. I think that's a good enough model
for us to understand and live by. Right now that
you focus on the truth, we focus on the truth.
Share nothing the truth, The whole truth and nothing but
the truth, and let the Lord be glorified. Okay, don't
(55:27):
worry about whether or not people going to receive the message.
Just continue to share the truth. Censorship will take place,
ridicule will take place. It doesn't matter. Share the truth
regardless because the people who are the people who are
ready to receive the truth will be ready to hear.
What did the Lord say, He who has an ear
(55:49):
to hear, let him hear. That's what you should have
said on multiple occasions, He who has an ear to hear,
let him hear. The Lord is good. It's interesting, you know.
When I opened up to look at second Chronicles seven fourteen,
they're at the bottom of the Hebrew Complete Jewish Bible.
(56:13):
There's a there's this passage actually that focuses on second
Chronicles seven fourteen. I want to actually spend son some
time with this. Dashuva translated as either repentant or returning,
has a specific, specific meaning in scripture and is clearly
outlined in Second Chronicles seven fourteen. If my people who
(56:35):
bear my name, who will humble themselves pray, seek my
face and turn from their evil ways, I will hear
from heaven or give their sin and heal their land.
The people were to show humility and respect before Hashim
a name, and pray. There is no single word for
prayer in Hebrew. Mentioned here is a specific type of prayer,
(56:59):
it palel, a prayer of turning within, of seeking his face.
This is a poetic way of saying that the people
must extend themselves to Hashem, to go after him and
turn from their from evil ways. The act of Tasuva
required not only humility in prayer, but an actual change
(57:20):
of behavior. The early Messianic followers of Yashua were commonly
known as a way, as they followed the way of
Hashem and his Messiah. From the Jewish perspective, to repent
means to return to following Torah in humility and respect. Oh,
(57:46):
you gotta love it, you have you have to love it.
Is because again there's a growth of people who were
following and who were in Torah. That it's it's waking
people beloved. It's putting people in a position where they
recognize there's truth here and this is not like the
stuff that I've been exposed to all these years of
(58:08):
my life. Churchianity. People are waking up and recognizing this
isn't fake. This isn't the posturing of the Pharisees and
Sadducees and everything like that. But there there's something different.
There's there's there's life here. And when people finally we
have that family reunion, you know, it's it's interesting. We
(58:29):
love that passage. Uh uh I said let us go
into the house of the Lord. This side when I said,
let us go into the house of the Lord. Right,
it's good that reunion with fellow brothers and sisters. Right,
I'm telling you, when there are people who are in Torah,
(58:51):
we're truth and obedience, not for show. We're truth and obedience.
That re union is a reunion. Would you cannot begin
to even imagine because there's a freedom, because many of
us have been taught at treated as freaks, have been
(59:13):
treated as outcasts, have been rejected, if perchance, sold into slavery.
I mean, think about that. The language in the last
five years, those who refuse to wear masks, those who
refused to get the job, they should go home and
die or be put in prison. That the people were
(59:34):
so strong against people having a different opinion and position
that they were willing for some to die. This was
the words of those who were pro the job. The
same things with Torah, Well, sorry, do you stand on
