Deuteronomy 6:6-7
These words, which I am ordering you today, are to be on your heart; and you are to teach them carefully to your children. You are to talk about them when you sit at home, when you are traveling on the road, when you lie down and when you get up.
Genesis 50:1 Yosef fell on his father's face, wept over him and kissed him. 2 Then Yosef ordered the physicians in his service to embalm his father. So the physicians embalmed Isra'el. 3 Forty days were spent at this, the normal amount of time for embalming. Then the Egyptians mourned for him seventy days.
Genesis 50:4 When the period of mourning was over, Yosef addressed to the household of Pharaoh: "I would like to ask a favor. Tell Pharaoh, 5 `My father had me swear an oath. He said, "I am going to die. You are to bury me in my grave, which I dug for myself in the land of Kena`an." Therefore, I beg you, let me go up and bury my father; I will return.'" 6 Pharaoh responded, "Go up and bury your father, as he made you swear."
Genesis 50:7 So Yosef went up to bury his father. With him went all Pharaoh's servants, the leaders of his household and the leaders of the land of Egypt, 8 along with the entire household of Yosef, his brothers and his father's household; only their little ones, their flocks and their cattle did they leave in the land of Goshen. 9 Moreover, there went up with him both chariots and horsemen — it was a very large caravan.
Genesis 50:10 When they arrived at the threshing-floor in Atad, beyond the Yarden, they raised a loud and bitter lamentation, mourning for his father seven days. 11 When the local inhabitants, the Kena`ani, saw the mourning on the floor of Atad they said, "How bitterly the Egyptians are mourning!" This is why the place was given the name Avel-Mitzrayim [mourning of Egypt], there beyond the Yarden.
Genesis 50:12 His sons did to him as he had ordered them to do — 13 they carried him into the land of Kena`an and buried him in the cave in the field of Makhpelah, which Avraham had bought, along with the field, as a burial-place belonging to him, from `Efron the Hitti, by Mamre.
Genesis 50:14 Then, after burying his father, Yosef returned to Egypt, he, his brothers and all who had gone up with him to bury his father.
Genesis 50:15 Realizing that their father was dead, Yosef's brothers said, "Yosef may hate us now and pay us back in full for all the suffering we caused him." 16 So they sent a message to Yosef which said, "Your father gave this order before he died: 17 `Say to Yosef, "I beg you now, please forgive your brothers' crime and wickedness in doing you harm."' So now, we beg of you, forgive the crime of the servants of the G_d of your father." Yosef wept when they spoke to him; 18 and his brothers too came, prostrated themselves before him and said, "Here, we are your slaves."
Genesis 50:19 But Yosef said to them, "Don't be afraid! Am I in the place of G_d? 20 You meant to do me harm, but G_d meant it for good — so that it would come about as it is today, with many people's lives being saved. 21 So don't be afraid — I will provide for you and your little ones." In this way he comforted them, speaking kindly to them.
Genesis 50:22 Yosef continued living in Egypt, he and his father's household. Yosef lived 110 years. 23 Yosef lived to see Efrayim's great-grandchildren, and the children of M'nasheh's son Makhir were born on Yosef's knees.
Genesis 50:24 Yosef said to his brothers, "I am dying. But G_d will surely remember you and bring you up out of this land to the land which he swore to Avraham, Yitz'chak and Ya`akov." 25 Then Yosef took an oath from the sons of Isra'el: "G_d will surely remember you, and you are to carry my bones up from here." 26 So Yosef died at the age of 110, and they embalmed him and put him in a coffin in Egypt.

Speaker 1 (00:04):
Triggering change one heartbeat at a time. Battle for Freedom
Welcome everyone. I'm your host Watson Prenier from Battle for
Freedom on modro of Fiber Radio. Thank you for joining
the program and being with me today as we have
(00:25):
a this is a very es sentimental moment for me
as we do this last chapter, this last verse, this
last stanza of the Book of Genesis. We will come back,
and we will return, but it's kind of an emotional
thing for me. I've been putting this off for weeks
as because studying Torah has been a very humbling thing
(00:46):
for me, as I realized that there are things that
I had not noticed has been in the Bible for
the last twenty nine and a half years, for the
first twenty nine and a half years of my walk
with the Lord, and so as it get into this
particular chapter, and this week we close this one out
for now. Before we get back, we're going to talk
about legacy, learner and leader, trendsetting obedience. What's gonna be
(01:11):
really cool about this is if you want to interact,
you can leave a comment on Facebook. You can leave

(01:34):
available to you when you go there. I see Curtis
and John over there in the Rumble verse. Thank you
for joining him being part of the program. Let's have
some Uh yeah, we're gonna have some serious fun as
a honestly, no lie, I'm excited for this and this
is gonna be a whole lot of fun. So the
(01:55):
first verse I want to actually cover when we sit
here talking about the whole idea of legacy and leader.
This is a verse. It's from the heat part of
the Hebrewshama, not the whole thing. But I want you
to see this particular thing as we go from there
and check us out. Instructional instruct generational obedience. Its supposed
(02:20):
to be instructing in generational obedience, but it says these
words which I'm ordering you today, are to be on
your heart, and you are to teach them carefully to
your children. You are to talk about them when you
sit at home, when you are traveling on the road,
when you lie down, and when you get up. This
(02:40):
is towards the end of the life of Moses Mouche
as before the people go into the children of visual
go into the Promised Land, and these are the beautiful
words that he gives to them. I want to read
it one more time because of the fact that this
command isn't directly to pastors. It's to all the people
(03:00):
of Israel. This is clergy, laity, and the congregation. It
doesn't matter. Don't think that you have to have some
kind of special training in order to teach your kids.
Long before the public education system ever hit the mark,
you know, hit the stage in the late what eighteen hundreds,
(03:24):
people were teaching that people were successfully teaching their children
everything they didn't have to know, calculus and all the
super things that are out there. And it's so amazing
that over what one hundred and twenty years ago, one
hundred and thirty years ago, that we started bringing in
and institutionalizing this and an interesting word, institutionalizing our children
(03:47):
via public education. And they've over and over for generations,
generations of forty they don't know how to do basic
things at home because they know everything else to do.
They know how to do everything away from home except
the fundamentals, and I think this is what's really key,
(04:09):
and this is what has really messed us up. And
then until we get to the mentality of so we
get to the mentality that we want to do better
for our children, I think they're going to continue to fail.
I'm going to do want a few of these right
up front so you can check us out and enjoy.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Hey, my name's Trip and I want to introduce you
to 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
crop 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, scorch
or draw anything out inside the sun Oven. Once you
(04:46):
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
really really hot, that's what's happening inside the sun of it.
You know, anything you cook in your regular oven, you
can cook inside the sun of it. You can use
(05:07):
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.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
It's designed for you.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
To be able to cook your meal out with the
power of the sun. And literally the longer you keep
stuff in here, the more juicy and tender it is.
So that's a quick introduction to the sun oven.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Thank you. Yes, look into the soun oven. You know.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
One of the things going to be really impowerful about
that is you won't talk about a legacy and what
it'll do for people and how it will impact cultures.
It will impact community, will impact homes. Get one while
you can get to pick up the Son of and
let trip know that Watson from Battle for Freedom sent him,
sent you to go get go invest into that. I
(05:49):
assure you you will not be disappointed. Another thing, you know,
if you don't have property like I don't have yet,
you can look into this other thing.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
Hello, I am ductor at Horizontal Hive dot com and
I keep these 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 brookhouses, bees will move into
a little high like that. After that, you take the frames,
put them in a bigger box. They expand, They collect
(06:20):
honey from.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
The flowers and make good high from you for you.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
And it can be.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
As simple as that. No sugar fitting, no chemical treatments.
I'm doing it for a living, and there are so
many 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 time.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Yes, natural beekeeping and smile on the same time. What's
really cool about that is their honey is delicious.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Ooh, delicious and licious delicious.
Speaker 1 (06:51):

Let them know Watson from Battlefreedom sent you. So let's
get it. Let's get back into now what we have
(08:44):
here with this amazing topic here Genesis. Again, I know
I've been delaying this, but this is really emotional. We're
dealing with the idea of legacy learned. Oh wait, legacy
learner and leader transsetting obedience. And this is what we're
going to get out of Genesis chapter fifty. Let's start
with the verse one Yoseph fell on his face. Yoseph
(09:08):
fell on his father's face, wept over him and kissed him.
Then Yoseph ordered the physicians in his service to embalm
his father. So the physician embalmed Israel. Forty days were
spent at this, and the normal amount of time for embalming.
Then the Egyptians mourned for him seventy days. Now, what's
(09:30):
really amazing about a legacy? A legacy h Chief and
I were talking about this the other day. This is
going to be an emotional tribute to Israel. He noticed
that they're not calling him Yaakov, they're not calling him Jacob,
They're calling him Israel, the name that has been given
(09:54):
to him by God, that when he is dead, people
remember him for how he lived and the new name
that he had, the difference of who he had. Remember,
this is the guy who's spoiled, who had an obsession
with his second wife, practically ignored his first wife and
(10:15):
their children, and then obsessed on the children that his
second wife, his favorite wife had. So there were a
lot of different things that he did wrong, chasing after
a woman for twenty years, wrong, wrong, wrong, I mean,
so many strikeouts. But he closed his life out in
(10:35):
a manner that people could not ignore. And one of
the things too, because of his connection to Joseph, Joseph
who saved who saved Egypt through a horrible famine, I'm
certain that there was the devastation was bigger than people
could ever imagine. And so the effects of what he
(10:57):
has done, it sent ripples around the world world, And
so they're grateful for him. And this this wasn't Joseph,
Who's Joseph who saved Egypt? This is his father, And
so they mourned for him for seventy days. This is
says a lot. And when people recognize the source of
(11:18):
their blessings, they do not, they do not at all.
They don't forget. The truly grateful people don't forget. Shout
out to Larry over there in the rumble verse, thank
you for joining and being part of the program. So
as we said, it was, I just it just blows
(11:41):
me away. And again that for seventy days, these people,
I don't know if any of them even met Yako Yakov,
not Yago Israel, Yako Israel while he was still alive,
to know how much information he imparted on him. But
I just want us to look at this is very
(12:02):
powerful when we look at how this this this chapter,
this book closes, and it's it's it's a it's emotional
for me. Sorry, I apologize, probably too emotional, but here
we go. Let's move on to the next verse. So
now we're making funeral arrangements. Verse four. When the period
(12:24):
of morning was over, you also have addressed to the
household of Pharaoh. I would like to ask a favor.
Tell Pharaoh my father had me swear an oath. He said,
I'm going to die, and you are to bury me
in my grave which I dug for myself in the
land of cannot on, cannot on. Therefore I beg you,
(12:44):
let me go up and bury my father. I will return.
There were responded, go up and bury your father, as
he made you swear.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Who this is.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
The most powerful man on the earth, who could be selfish,
could be stubborn, could be so like, No, no, no, I'm
not losing you. You you you say you you did
so much for this nation and and my my my
country can and my nation could never be any better
(13:20):
than it is right now because you gave me the
foundations of success and one of the most pinnacle nations
in the history of the world. Past president in the future.
And he's like, I swore to my father, I made
an oath. This is what I'm going to do.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
This is where making promises.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
It's so key. It's so key to basically say, if
I'm going to make a promise, following through. My boss
talks to me about it. But the whole idea is,
if I promise something, I need to follow through. If
we promise something, we need to follow through because without
without our follow through, without our follow up on what
we said we were going to do. We lose all
(14:05):
credibility if we can't we can't produce, if we can't
if we cannot do it. So it's not just in
the regular world, it's in the world. It's in the
world of as a as a spouse, as a child,
as a family member, as a as a co worker,
as a a human individual. If we make promises of
(14:25):
what we're supposed to do and we don't follow through,
we lack any credibility. And I think the reason why
we sometimes miss our targets, and sometimes I think the
reason why we miss our our promises is because we
have so much activity going on, and we think that
we can juggle everything and be successful at everything at
(14:47):
the same time, rather than just focusing on being successful
in just one area doing our best in that area.
And once we establish a consistency and having one of
my former bosses, he's he shared some really good books
with me about that as well too, about the whole
idea of just the what was it was one of
those books about that out there, the Seven Habits of
(15:08):
highly Effective People. And I think that what once we
once we keep up and follow through on what we
promise the people will recognize I can count on this
person and do what they said they would do. And
this isn't the only time that Joseph. Joseph has gone
(15:29):
to Pharaoh to ask for leave. Do you remember he
went to go get his father out of the famine
and bring him back to Egypt. So there was a
relationship here and with the funeral arrangements. And another thing
too about this well is now with his father gone,
(15:50):
if there was any point in time where Joseph was
fixated on his father more than he needed to do
in the kingdom is to be it is Pharaoh's best
interest to let his fother so that his best worker
can get back to making his kingdom great. Mega, making
Egypt great again instead of Maga, we have Mega. Oh
(16:18):
my goodness. Wow, oh wow, pray for me, Please pray
for me. Ah. So he's making you enragements. Wow, Mega,
I need help. Uh oh yeah yeah yeah. So let's
look at verse seven and this is honored in death.
This is this is I'm not gonna lie to you
(16:39):
this part. Really, every time I read this passage, this
really gets me because of the fact that what happens
here just listenless so Joseph went to bury his father
went up to bury his father. With him went all
barrow servants, the leaders of his household, and the leaders
(17:01):
of the land of Egypt. Along with the entire household
of Yoseph, his brothers, and his father's household, and only
their little ones, their flocks, and their cattle did they
leave in the land of Goshen. Moreover, moreover there went up.
There went up with him, both chariots and horsemen. It
(17:22):
was a very large caravan. Now again the idea that
that that the household, that Pharaoh sent his whole household
to go with Joseph, it literally shows how much how
(17:44):
we spend so much time fixated in the wrong areas
and not building up the right foundation. We have our
hands in too many different things, and we just don't
understand why is it we can never succeed. But when
people have confidence in what we do, when people have
confidence that we will follow through, when people have seen
(18:06):
our track record of consistency, they show their appreciation.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
I know my job.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
They have these things where you know, if you stand
out on doing things and people can continue to consistently
rely on you, they'll sing you like this a link
to this one award rewards site just to show their
appreciation for how you've contributed to helping their team succeed.
(18:33):
And I think that when we get into the habit
and don't do it for looking for the reward, do
it because it's our character. I think that's I think
that's probably the reason why we fail so much, is
that we do some great things often, but we often
do those great things because we're looking for the initial reward.
(18:55):
We're looking for the initial payback on doing something good
for nature. I mean when you think about when you
think about the way Chief and I talked about this,
when we mess up as Christians and and the way
we the way instead of just following to our instead
of just following what God's word says, what we do
is we get invested into activities like soup kitchens and
(19:18):
and and feeding the poor and clothing and serving in
all these different areas, doing a little bit extra for
God in ministry to try and basically wipe away the
wrong that we done in the dark, in the in
the in the when no one's looking and it's like no, no, no,
(19:40):
be obedient. We should be obedient with God. Not because
of the fact that we're looking for the reward we
want to be with the obedience of God because of
the fact that we have a relationship with Him. It's
kind of like even the idea that you know, even
in marriage, parenting, or even being children, it doesn't matter
what role we are. See, yes, when we work, we
(20:03):
get paid, but when we are when we really work,
because we really it doesn't matter. Now I'm not just
talking about your job. I'm talking about in every aspect
of our life. When we really work and we put
in the we put forth the effort, and people recognize
(20:23):
what it is that we're doing. They see that we're invested,
not because we're just looking for the financial aspect of it,
but there's an emotional there's a physiological there's every ogical,
our emotional, you know, old thing that you can imagine.
They can see the connection and see how much we've
(20:43):
invested into it. And it's not just the financial aspect.
It is the aspect because of the fact that by
the nature of who we are as humans to be
relational and that we we appreciate relationships that we have,
God blesses us. When we truly show we can love
our we can love our neighbor, as ourselves, you know,
(21:07):
instead of you know, just doing it out of selfish gain.
But we're doing it for the glory of God instead
of the glory of us. And that speaks volumes on
how we impact and it flows down to affect other people.
This this idea that I'm still baffled about. How many
people went to this funeral service. This is just mind
(21:32):
boggling to know that the Lord has done this. I mean,
this is just a powerful message. Let's see, let's go
to go the next one here. When they arrived at
the threshing floor in a todd beyond the ard, they
raised a loud and bitter lamentation mourning for his father.
(21:52):
Seven days when the local inhabitants, the ken and I
cannot deny, saw them, saw the morning floor on the
saw the morning on the floor of a toad. They said,
how bitterly the Egyptians are mourning. This is why the
place was given the name avel Mitzrayem Mourning of Egypt,
(22:15):
Mourning of Egypt there beyond the yard. And see, sometimes
sometimes we do. I'm not gonna lie to you. This
is uh as I walk away from Churchianity, not Christianity,
(22:41):
Churchianity and I think of all the emotional stuff, all
the play acting I've seen in church. I remember growing
up back in New York, and my mom wanted us.
We were raised Roman Catholic, but there was a few
times where we couldn't make it to the Catholic church,
(23:02):
and my dad brought us to the Baptist church in
our town. I'm not gonna lie to you. It was
night and day. Catholic Church was nice and quiet and calm.
I was able to stare there looking at the statues
and fantasize about battles and all these other different things
when I was sitting in the pew quietly between doing
(23:24):
the motion of the Trinity, standing kneeling, doing everything that
we needed to do during the time that we were
in Catholic church. But the Baptist Church, the Baptist Coostal Church,
scared the living snot out of me because it seemed
like that church. I felt like I was inside of
the beetlejuice House, where that place was rocking left and right,
(23:46):
and every time around one o'clock the same woman ran
down the center of the aisle and she flailing her
hands and getting slain in the spirit. I'm not lying.
It's scared. It scared me like there's no tomorrow. And
I've been in churches. Why, I've watched the slay and
the spirit individuals and the people carrying on making a
(24:07):
mockery of faith. I think like animals, and so much so.
And the ones who are less, less extreme in their performance,
but they still get up there and they give their
testimonies over and over and over again without a changed lifestyle.
That just drove me up the wall when I see
(24:30):
this kind of behavior, I mean again, we talked about
this the other day, Chief and I about the whole
idea is that we look even when Yashua called out
the Pharisees of how they prayed, they would stand up,
stand up with pride and no humility, bragging about their religiosity.
(24:54):
And we see that a lot in churches that we
brag about. We brag about how much we donate, we
brag about how much we serve the community, we brag
about whose life we've changed. But it's all about what
that church has done and not what the Lord has done.
All the energy goes into this church with multiple locations
(25:17):
and multiple people and multiple this multiple again, I'm not
against church, but what we've been instituting for the last
two thousand years.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
It is.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
It's been a sham, and I've been part of it too.
That's the part about it that just hurts me more
than anything else, because of the fact that I wasn't obedient,
And if we truly be told, if with truth be told,
we would truly say that we haven't been obedient as well.
We're struggling to be consistent in our walk, We're struggling
to be consistent in our faith. I'm telling you, the
(25:53):
reckoning is coming for us. The reckoning is coming for us,
and we will either leave a legacy that trends that's obedience,
or we'll leave a legacy that trends that's obstinates. And
we just have to make that decision of which path
that we want to take. Because I'm tired of all
(26:14):
the play acting that I've done for far too long,
and I'm hoping that you're feeling the same exact way
as well too. But this is just so emotional, I mean,
he realizes. So there was forty days of preparing for
the obombing, and there were seventy days that they were mourning,
seventy days that the Egyptians mourned the loss of either
(26:38):
they truly appreciated who Joseph was. I'm not Joseph, but
Jacob Israel was, or they just loved Joseph so much
and they could feel his grief and pain and they
wanted to be there for him. And then we get
down to verses ten through eleven. It talks about the
whole idea of how they mourned his fire. Another seven days,
(27:01):
another week, seventy seven days of mourning, and we mind
you too. We haven't even talked about how long it
took them to get there. We haven't talked. We haven't
talked about how long it took them to get from
Egypt to where they would bury him. And swaths of
(27:23):
people that have to go across certain lands.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
This was, this was.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
This is not calling Uber, this is not calling Amtrak,
This isn't calling Delta. This is calling this is calling
left foot and right foot and moving to get to
this funeral recession. So this, the way that this is
transpired is just one inspiring for me. And I'm not
gonna lie to you. I thank God for this, just
(27:50):
the lessons being learned. I'm not looking for an entourage
to follow me at burial. I'm looking for an on
Raj that will live for Ada and eye for Yahweh
at my burial. You get that because because I don't
(28:11):
need the accolades. All the accolades belong to add Anye
and our commitment, your commitment to follow him. Because if
if I have not set an example, now mind you,
maybe I did set an example, it would make could
be it probably could be a decent one that I merit,
well done, good and faithful servant. But if I'm not, Lord,
(28:36):
forgive me, Lord's changed me. Lord mold me that I
would truly be a vessel for your honor, glory and praise.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Let's go to break people, and I'll.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
Talk to you amazing people on the flip side some one
Verse one, How blessed are those who reject the advice
of the wicked, don't stand on the way of sinners,
(29:08):
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. Verst
two says, their delight is innatornized Torah on his tor
(29:29):
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
His streams. They bear their fruit in season, their leaves
never wither. Everything they do succeeds. First tree is basically
hinting that there's life in them, and it's not murky,
(29:51):
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 an imitation
of wheat that has no substance and has no value,
and it's easily manipulated. For this reason, the wicked won't
(30:13):
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 Tora, 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 the way of the wicked
(30:35):
is doomed. In other words, if our goal is to
reject Adenai, 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.
(30:56):
Why because we rejected his truth triggering change one heartbeat
at a time. Battle for Freedom.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Welcome back everyone.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
I'm your host Watson Premier from Battle for Freedom and
Mojio Fiber Radio. I appreciate every last one of you.
We continue this broadcast today as we we're finishing Genesis
Legacy Learner and leader trendsetting obedience.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
So we're now dealing.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
With the Joseph yo israel Kov died last time we spoke,
and now we get into the funeral, the morning and
the funeral, and it's what kind of legacy we live
leave behind. I'm not lying to you when you sit
there and you look at this. There's so much in
(31:59):
Genesis that I'm just wondering. The only reason why Christian
families in churchyanity looks so dysfunctional because we have zero order,
we have zero boundaries, We have a zero understanding of
what parenting and family and honoring God looks like and
(32:23):
it's really sad because again, I know a lot of
you dismissing me.
Speaker 3 (32:25):
I don't want to get back to sacrifices, and I
don't want to get.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
Back you know what, your obstinence instead of obedience, not
obedience to me, obedience to the Lord. First Damuel fifteen
twenty two says, I desire obedience over sacrifice. I desire
obedience over sacrifice because I think that a lot of
times we come to we approach God with confidence and
(32:51):
uber confidence, like he should be happy that we're here
and that we're in his presence. We're a blessing to him,
and the world is so much better because I'm here
and because of my wit and my participation and what
I'm offering society. Uh Yo. Something that something that Chief
and I found the other day that just blows in
(33:13):
the midst of a conversation about how we approach God
and how fakeness happens, because we talked a little bit
about Genesis fifty and uh something we both found.
Speaker 3 (33:30):
It's just.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
It completely flattened us. I think it's John eleven. Is
a John eleven where Lazarus dies and he's buried he's dead.
For he's dead for four days, Mariam and Martha set
sent out people, go get go, get your shoe with
(33:53):
bring him back to save, save, and heal his servant
before he dies. He doesn't get there, but two attitudes.
Two attitudes. I want you to understand between those who
followed who have Messianic faith and those who have a
Churchianic faith Messianic Churchianic. This decision is yours because as
(34:22):
you continue to rebuke me and others who are trying
to get you into Torah, you are more of a
Churchianic faith than you are a Messianic faith. So Lazarus
is dead, their morning is sure is on the way.
(34:43):
Martha realizes, oh, yep, he's here. He's on the way.
I gotta confront him on what took place here this
read this for yourself, Okay. So it turns out Martha
runs up to the Lord and says, yo, had you
been here, my brother wouldn't have died. What you gonna
(35:05):
do about it? Yeah, I'm giving you they Bonix version.
But more and more likely that's the modern day version
of our attitude towards God. When we don't get when
we approach God with disrespect, expecting him to bless us.
We're completely ungrateful. And he said, yeah, I'll take care
(35:26):
of it. It wasn't moved, he wasn't rushed. He just like,
I'll take care of it. Don't worry about it. But
when Mary found out Miriam found out she was moved,
she got up from the morning and she ran up
to the Lord and asked him the same EQO exact question,
but there was a difference. I want you to read
(35:48):
this for yourself, okay, But in Genesis eleven, Mary approaches
the Lord and says, Lord, if you had been here,
my brother would not have died. But there's a part
that we miss. She fell on her face, She fell
down and worshiped him. She gave him honor, she gave
(36:10):
him praise. Before she could say a thing to him,
the first thing she did was obediently worship her lord,
her king. That's a huge, huge, huge difference. And your
Shua says, if you love me, if you worship me,
keep my commandments. The commandments that we keep saying don't
(36:34):
matter anymore. Because we're in a new covenant. We approach
God like, hey, yo yo yo, handle your business and
bless me. Lord I have no I don't come to
you with any requirements. I don't come to you with
any obedience. I'm just making my demands right now. Answer
(36:55):
me now, speak of my time. Clap clap, move, move.
We treat when we treat him in Churchianity, we treat
God like a genie instead of the creator of the universe,
the one who controls our eternal destiny. Well, all we
act like we just said a formal we said Romans
(37:16):
t we said the Roman Road to Salvation. And I'm
guaranteeing into heaven. There's nothing more for me to do.
I've got my golden ticket. I've got my golden ticket,
you know, Willy Wonker. No no, no, no, no, no, no,
(37:37):
too different. And I'm telling you the spirit of Churchianity,
the Church Annics, the church you antics versus the Messianics
the churchy Annis. Well, we'll approach God. No, I don't
have to live right for you. I don't have to
live according to your tour that never died. I don't
have to live acording to that stuff. I'm just gonna
go by this grace on grace on top of grace
(37:58):
that I've been learning for so long. I don't have
to change my life. I just have to approach you
whenever I need something or I want something. Huge difference, folks.
And I believe that the life towards the end of
Yakov's life, of Israel's life, reflected more of a Merry
(38:18):
spirit than of a Martha spirit, because a lot of
us get very active doing a lot of quote unquote
things for God. And you know we're going to hear
when it's all said and done, the most faithful words,
fateful words you'd ever want to hear, depart from me.
(38:41):
You workers of lawlessness. I never knew you, y'all. Let
that set in for a little bit there, That the ruth,
because how many people have died and we don't even
remember who they are or what they've done. How many
people have passed away, and and they're just they're dust.
(39:04):
They're dust, They're they're they're might, they're they're so insignificant
in our memories.
Speaker 3 (39:11):
They were, they were gone that fast. They don't even
matter anymore. I don't. I don't.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
Again, I'm not saying, set up a legacy so people
remember you for it, because again, legacies can be tarnished,
or images of one's legacy can be tarnished, but the
truth stands the test of time. The truth, the teachings
(39:42):
stand the test of time. We may fade away, but
his truth, his word, stands the test of time. I
just I don't think we fully understand the dynamics of
what is being required of us here, even as we
(40:04):
finish up Genesis. I don't think we fully understand the dynamics.
But when we look at this thing here, of this
last verse ten through eleven, now we get into.
Speaker 3 (40:20):
The celebration of life. That's what it was. It was
a celebration of life.
Speaker 1 (40:26):
Yes we call it mourning, but I see it as
a celebration of life because it's not the life that
it's not the life that's that has left, it's the
life that's birthing and will continue to live. Now that
I'm no longer here.
Speaker 3 (40:49):
You get that.
Speaker 1 (40:52):
We're so busy focusing on the past that we stopped
living in the present and for the future. And that's
the difference between a churchy anik and a messianic here
as you see fit. But I'm telling you we are
(41:16):
going to be judged.
Speaker 3 (41:19):
Move on. Moving on.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
For those who don't want to hear the truth anymore,
let's look at this verse twelve. His sons did to him,
did to him as he ordered them to do. They
carried him into the land of Kantanan and buried him
in the cave in the field of Machpelah, which Avraham
had bought along with the field as a burial place
(41:42):
belonging to him from Ephron. The Hitti of Baimamra. Oh,
I love these go oh, come on, folks, Come on.
Speaker 3 (41:52):
Folks, Come on, come on, go on, go on on.
Speaker 1 (41:56):
This place has so I've never appreciated. I've never appreciated
this field more than I do right now. The oaks
of the oaks of Mamra, macfella, this this, this place
is so beautiful because this was the place where this
(42:20):
is the place where Avraham, Avram to Avraham's faith was
best lived out when he worshiped the Lord without restraint.
Speaker 3 (42:34):
That's why.
Speaker 1 (42:35):
That's why, my fella, that's why the oaks of Mamra
are so beautiful. If we had another child, I think
I've made them oaks of Mamra because it's such a
beautiful place. It's that place that we thought that we
truly enjoyed. You know, when we get to that honeymoon
stage of faith, and we're just we just love the
(42:57):
Lord with everything, where where, where, where we are sprinkling,
We're sprinkling Jesus dust everywhere. See that's the Faids because
because again without the foundations of Tora to understand why
we are truly saved, what we were saved from, a
(43:20):
lot of that is just emotional stuff. And people burn
out from faith. I'm sorry when you burn out, We're not.
We never were established in faith. We didn't have a legacy.
We did not have a legacy of faith and learning
and obedience. We had a very emotional moment. Oh you
(43:44):
canna tell me about my conversion.
Speaker 3 (43:45):
You can tell me.
Speaker 1 (43:46):
About how's how's our living? You see you get that.
I didn't say how's your living? I said how's our living?
And if we can't sit there and honest it with truthfulness,
depart from me, you workers of lawlessness. I never knew you. Then,
(44:16):
after burying his father, Yoseph returned to Egypt. He his
brothers and all who had gone up with him to
bury his father. So pivoting after death, it's because I
think this is the this is the key that happens.
Really again, remember and I said earlier. The focus isn't
(44:38):
Joseph the dead one. Remember what she said to the
people when he's calling people to follow him. Oh, Dad, Lord,
permit me to go back and bury my father because
he died. And what did they say?
Speaker 6 (44:51):
The Lord, Lord say, let the dead bury the dead
because the living will be following me for my glory
and we don't have time living in the past or dying.
Speaker 3 (45:08):
In the past.
Speaker 1 (45:09):
So you get that the dead because get remember people
who are dying, who get to that that terminal stage
where there is is there past the point of an overturn,
the Lord calls them dead already. They're like the Walking
Dead Crazy series. Many people in churchy Any and Church
(45:31):
the churchy Annicks are the walking dead and they don't
realize it. The Lord said, let the dead bury the
dead because because the living pivot after that. I know
it took me years to get over and losing my
(45:52):
mom when I was when I was a senior in
high school, actually on a I dropped out of school
two days later. I didn't go back to school, I
did not finish my I did not finish my senior year.
My mom was everything to me, and losing her on
(46:15):
December thirty first, nineteen eighty eight, at twenty one hundred hours,
had literally shaped my life. I became an alcoholic to
hide the pain of dealing with the loss of my mother.
I became an alcoholic, and it was it was really bad.
(46:43):
I drank people underneath the table. I did everything I
could because it took me forever to pivot away from
that loss. You know, when my dad died on my
birthday two years ago, on the morning give my fifty
second birthday, Yeah, it's stung for a second, but I've
(47:08):
moved on. Don't think that I've forgotten the people who
are responsible for as death. But I've moved on. And
I think that many of us right now we spend
too much time mourning those who are dead that we
stop living. We mourn the dead, and we just don't
(47:34):
know how to move on when there's death. And sometimes
there's someone who has died. It could even be the
end of a relationship. It could be the end of
a friendship. It can be so many different things. We
could even be fired from a job, and we sit
there mourning for so long rather than getting up and
doing what's necessary to provide for ourselves and our families.
Speaker 3 (48:00):
We spent.
Speaker 1 (48:00):
I think we we obsess over death more so than
anything else. And Uh, I mean you can see it
by the end of the way we react to stars
and famous people dying. We obsess over death. But then
there are people who live pivoting after death. This is
what's really key. And the question is whether or not
(48:22):
we want to respond or do we want to We
want to live forward, move forward. Realizing that their father
was dead, Yoseph's brother said, Joseph may hate us now
and pay us back in full for all the suffering
we caused him. So they sent a message to Joseph
and said your which said your father gave this order
(48:44):
before he died. Say to Joseph, I beg you now
please forgive your brother's crime and wickedness in doing you harm.
So now we beg you forgive, forgive the crime of
the servants of the god of your father. Joseph wept
when they spoke to him, and Uh and his brothers
(49:04):
came to him, prostrated themselves before him and said, here
we are your slaves.
Speaker 3 (49:11):
This is.
Speaker 1 (49:14):
This is it's I'm glad. We don't know exactly how
much time passed when this when this this action activity
took place. But I want you to understand something. Because
their father's dead, the period of morning is over, and
now they're fearful, see, because there's a lot of different things.
What I see here is regret but no remorse. Regret
(49:39):
but no remorse. Seat Because the thing about it is,
why didn't they just ask him for forgiveness before his
father died? We have no documentation of them asking for
forgiveness before their father died, So that means said, and
(50:00):
this whole time, all they've been doing has been bandwagoning
and writing the coattails of their brother they tried to
kill or they sold off into slavery. And now they're like,
your father, say, gave us order, and we know how
much you.
Speaker 3 (50:15):
Listened to Dad. Don't hurt them, forgive them. How do
we know that's even true?
Speaker 1 (50:22):
See? Because if if it true, if they had just
asked for forgiveness, if they had just confessed their crimes
and asked for forgiveness, they never would have needed the
word of their father. Or had they done it right,
had they asked for forgiveness while their father was still alive,
(50:44):
so they would they would have heard directly Joseph in
the present. I mean, Yoseph would have heard his father
directly say, don't harm your brothers, forgive them, But we
don't have an account of that. So all I see
you right here, right now is regret but no remorse,
because if they truly were remorseful for their actions, they
(51:04):
would have sought forgiveness long before their father perished. They've
been an egyp for a long time, man, long long gone,
and now they're gonna turn around and that, Yo, don't
do anything to us. You have every right to. We're
compelling you, by your love for your father not to
bring us an your arm. And he said, don't do it,
(51:26):
so we know you're gonna follow with Dad says, I.
Speaker 3 (51:31):
See the same mentality in us.
Speaker 1 (51:33):
In churchyanity, we come to God with no We come
to God with regret but no remorse.
Speaker 3 (51:41):
For our actions. Let me say that again.
Speaker 1 (51:45):
We come to God with regret but no remorse for
our actions, because if they're truly were, if there truly
was remorse, we love him and we keep his commandments.
(52:07):
It doesn't it doesn't get any easier than this, folks.
The path has been laid out. The question is whether
or not we want to be obedient or do we
want to live in disobedience? O Joseph said to him,
said to them, don't be afraid. Am I in the
(52:28):
place of God. You see, we love this passage. This
is this is We focus on this passage more than
anything else. I think between Genesis chapter one, two and
three and chapter fifty, I think that's all we see
when we look at Genesis. It's like what I've read Genesis,
(52:49):
what two, three fifty? Yes, I'm done reading that long book.
Speaker 3 (52:57):
Let me check this out. This is amazing.
Speaker 1 (52:59):
It says you meant to do me hard, but God
meant it for good, so that it would be it
would come about as it is today with many people's
lives being saved. So don't be afraid. I'll provide for
you and your little ones in this way. He comforted them,
speaking kindly to them. And this is where I love
(53:20):
this is because of the fact that this is meekness,
not weakness. He also has every right to open up
a can of whoopbud on these people, and he didn't.
The Lord has every right to execute execute his wrath
(53:41):
upon us because of our sins against him against him.
We may think we're only affecting other people, or we're
not hurting anybody, but we're offending God. Meekness, not weakness,
is what God aprove that crast to die in our stead. Meekness,
(54:04):
not weakness, is what descended from Heaven, take on human
flesh to set the example of how we can live
out his instructions. Meekness, not weakness, is what restrains him
from annihilating us, to give us an opportunity to yield
(54:28):
before we die, to yield to him. Meekness not weakness.
I don't think we understand it yet, but the Lord
will waken us up. Yoseph continued living in Egypt. He
(54:53):
in his father's household. Yoseph lived one hundred and ten years.
Yoseph lived to see Ephraim's great grandchildren and the children
of Manassa's son Makiir Akir were born to Joseph's knees.
He lived a long and prosperous life so that people
can see. He could see his posterity, He could see
(55:16):
and watch the obedience that his father lived, that he
has lived, and he can watch his generations. Listen, listen, listen.
I'm gonna Lord, just keep me around long enough to
help you understand, don't deviate from this path. And sometimes
we think we're going to be around long enough so
we can go do our bucket list of life. No, no, no, no,
(55:39):
we get a blessings of an obedient extended life to
see our posterity, to.
Speaker 3 (55:43):
Warn them, not spoil them.
Speaker 1 (55:49):
Warn them. That's the thing about it I can't stand
about American culture is that when grandparents decide that they
want to spoil their grandchildren, that is that is so
anti family, that is so sinful and wicked. I'm gonna
spoil I'm gonna turn your children into hellens. Oh you
(56:10):
didn't do a bad enough job failing with me that
you and I want to affect my children. Uh, that
One'm sorry as long as we actually we go back
to this one here, Oh I did this wrong. I'm sorry,
(56:33):
but I got a whole bunch of wrong ones here.
Meekness out weakness. Uh, watch his watch his people. Well,
you also said to his brothers, I'm gonna go to
twenty four. I don't have this on here. Forgive me.
He also said to his brothers, I am dying, but
God will surely remember you and bring you up out
(56:55):
of this land. In the land which he swore to
Avraham getzak and the yachtgove. Then Yoseph took an oath
from the sons of Israel. God will surely remember you,
and you are to carry my bones up from here.
So Yoseph died at the age of one hundred and ten,
and they embolved him and put him in a coffin.
Speaker 3 (57:19):
In Egypt. See.
Speaker 1 (57:22):
This is what's really powerful about this is that as
he's dying.
Speaker 3 (57:29):
As the eugh as this last pillar, this last pillar
of patriarchy.
Speaker 1 (57:41):
Isaac was the big pillar, but Joseph, he was the
last remembrance before he closes his eyes, the blessings of Egypt.
The Lord let him see one hundred and ten years
see generations follow after him. And let me see if
(58:02):
I have this on here. Yeah, here it goes. This
is the booke end of Genesis and the book end
of this message. Proverb twenty two six. Train a child
in the way he should go, and even when old,
(58:25):
he will not swerve from it. This is we love.
We love this verse. We love train up a child verse.
Speaker 3 (58:37):
Right.
Speaker 1 (58:38):
We know provert twenty two six. We know prover twenty
two six all day long. But you know what we
don't know Deuteronomy Deuteronomy six, We don't know the schmah.
These words with I'm ordering you today are to be
on your heart, and you are to teach them carefully
to your children. You are to talk about them when
(59:01):
you sit at home, when you are traveling on the road,
when you lie down, and when you get up. Train
up a child. That's the verse that helps us train
up a child. How how do I do this, Watson?
These words which I'm ordering you today, And I think
(59:21):
that the reason and this is the legacy you live.
When we train up our children, we train up our
family so that they know what the truth looks They
see what wickedness looks like, but they see the glory
of God through his word, through Torah. How we've taught them,
we've we've put away the activities of Churchianity don't raise
(59:43):
CHURCHI annex raise Messianics. And for far too long what
we have had in the product of Christendom has been
a bunch of CHURCHI annis and zero Messianics. And the
proof is in the pudding.
Triggering change one heartbeat at a time. Battle for Freedom
Welcome everyone. I'm your host Watson Prenier from Battle for
Freedom on modro of Fiber Radio. Thank you for joining
the program and being with me today as we have
(00:25):
a this is a very es sentimental moment for me
as we do this last chapter, this last verse, this
last stanza of the Book of Genesis. We will come back,
and we will return, but it's kind of an emotional
thing for me. I've been putting this off for weeks
as because studying Torah has been a very humbling thing
(00:46):
for me, as I realized that there are things that
I had not noticed has been in the Bible for
the last twenty nine and a half years, for the
first twenty nine and a half years of my walk
with the Lord, and so as it get into this
particular chapter, and this week we close this one out
for now. Before we get back, we're going to talk
about legacy, learner and leader, trendsetting obedience. What's gonna be
(01:11):
really cool about this is if you want to interact,

go to Facebook dot com for slash Battle for Freedom.
You can go to rumble dot com for slash battlefl Freedom,

available to you when you go there. I see Curtis
and John over there in the Rumble verse. Thank you
for joining him being part of the program. Let's have
some Uh yeah, we're gonna have some serious fun as
a honestly, no lie, I'm excited for this and this
is gonna be a whole lot of fun. So the
(01:55):
first verse I want to actually cover when we sit
here talking about the whole idea of legacy and leader.
This is a verse. It's from the heat part of
the Hebrewshama, not the whole thing. But I want you
to see this particular thing as we go from there
and check us out. Instructional instruct generational obedience. Its supposed
(02:20):
to be instructing in generational obedience, but it says these
words which I'm ordering you today, are to be on
your heart, and you are to teach them carefully to
your children. You are to talk about them when you
sit at home, when you are traveling on the road,
when you lie down, and when you get up. This
(02:40):
is towards the end of the life of Moses Mouche
as before the people go into the children of visual
go into the Promised Land, and these are the beautiful
words that he gives to them. I want to read
it one more time because of the fact that this
command isn't directly to pastors. It's to all the people
(03:00):
of Israel. This is clergy, laity, and the congregation. It
doesn't matter. Don't think that you have to have some
kind of special training in order to teach your kids.
Long before the public education system ever hit the mark,
you know, hit the stage in the late what eighteen hundreds,
(03:24):
people were teaching that people were successfully teaching their children
everything they didn't have to know, calculus and all the
super things that are out there. And it's so amazing
that over what one hundred and twenty years ago, one
hundred and thirty years ago, that we started bringing in
and institutionalizing this and an interesting word, institutionalizing our children
(03:47):
via public education. And they've over and over for generations,
generations of forty they don't know how to do basic
things at home because they know everything else to do.
They know how to do everything away from home except
the fundamentals, and I think this is what's really key,
(04:09):
and this is what has really messed us up. And
then until we get to the mentality of so we
get to the mentality that we want to do better
for our children, I think they're going to continue to fail.
I'm going to do want a few of these right
up front so you can check us out and enjoy.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Hey, my name's Trip and I want to introduce you
to 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
crop 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, scorch
or draw anything out inside the sun Oven. Once you
(04:46):
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
really really hot, that's what's happening inside the sun of it.
You know, anything you cook in your regular oven, you
can cook inside the sun of it. You can use
(05:07):
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.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
It's designed for you.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
To be able to cook your meal out with the
power of the sun. And literally the longer you keep
stuff in here, the more juicy and tender it is.
So that's a quick introduction to the sun oven.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Thank you. Yes, look into the soun oven. You know.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
One of the things going to be really impowerful about
that is you won't talk about a legacy and what
it'll do for people and how it will impact cultures.
It will impact community, will impact homes. Get one while
you can get to pick up the Son of and
let trip know that Watson from Battle for Freedom sent him,
sent you to go get go invest into that. I
(05:49):
assure you you will not be disappointed. Another thing, you know,
if you don't have property like I don't have yet,
you can look into this other thing.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
Hello, I am ductor at Horizontal Hive dot com and
I keep these 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 brookhouses, bees will move into
a little high like that. After that, you take the frames,
put them in a bigger box. They expand, They collect
(06:20):
honey from.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
The flowers and make good high from you for you.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
And it can be.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
As simple as that. No sugar fitting, no chemical treatments.
I'm doing it for a living, and there are so
many 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 time.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Yes, natural beekeeping and smile on the same time. What's
really cool about that is their honey is delicious.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Ooh, delicious and licious delicious.
Speaker 1 (06:51):

Let them know Watson from Battlefreedom sent you. So let's
get it. Let's get back into now what we have
(08:44):
here with this amazing topic here Genesis. Again, I know
I've been delaying this, but this is really emotional. We're
dealing with the idea of legacy learned. Oh wait, legacy
learner and leader transsetting obedience. And this is what we're
going to get out of Genesis chapter fifty. Let's start
with the verse one Yoseph fell on his face. Yoseph
(09:08):
fell on his father's face, wept over him and kissed him.
Then Yoseph ordered the physicians in his service to embalm
his father. So the physician embalmed Israel. Forty days were
spent at this, and the normal amount of time for embalming.
Then the Egyptians mourned for him seventy days. Now, what's
(09:30):
really amazing about a legacy? A legacy h Chief and
I were talking about this the other day. This is
going to be an emotional tribute to Israel. He noticed
that they're not calling him Yaakov, they're not calling him Jacob,
They're calling him Israel, the name that has been given
(09:54):
to him by God, that when he is dead, people
remember him for how he lived and the new name
that he had, the difference of who he had. Remember,
this is the guy who's spoiled, who had an obsession
with his second wife, practically ignored his first wife and
(10:15):
their children, and then obsessed on the children that his
second wife, his favorite wife had. So there were a
lot of different things that he did wrong, chasing after
a woman for twenty years, wrong, wrong, wrong, I mean,
so many strikeouts. But he closed his life out in
(10:35):
a manner that people could not ignore. And one of
the things too, because of his connection to Joseph, Joseph
who saved who saved Egypt through a horrible famine, I'm
certain that there was the devastation was bigger than people
could ever imagine. And so the effects of what he
(10:57):
has done, it sent ripples around the world world, And
so they're grateful for him. And this this wasn't Joseph,
Who's Joseph who saved Egypt? This is his father, And
so they mourned for him for seventy days. This is
says a lot. And when people recognize the source of
(11:18):
their blessings, they do not, they do not at all.
They don't forget. The truly grateful people don't forget. Shout
out to Larry over there in the rumble verse, thank
you for joining and being part of the program. So
as we said, it was, I just it just blows
(11:41):
me away. And again that for seventy days, these people,
I don't know if any of them even met Yako Yakov,
not Yago Israel, Yako Israel while he was still alive,
to know how much information he imparted on him. But
I just want us to look at this is very
(12:02):
powerful when we look at how this this this chapter,
this book closes, and it's it's it's a it's emotional
for me. Sorry, I apologize, probably too emotional, but here
we go. Let's move on to the next verse. So
now we're making funeral arrangements. Verse four. When the period
(12:24):
of morning was over, you also have addressed to the
household of Pharaoh. I would like to ask a favor.
Tell Pharaoh my father had me swear an oath. He said,
I'm going to die, and you are to bury me
in my grave which I dug for myself in the
land of cannot on, cannot on. Therefore I beg you,
(12:44):
let me go up and bury my father. I will return.
There were responded, go up and bury your father, as
he made you swear.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Who this is.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
The most powerful man on the earth, who could be selfish,
could be stubborn, could be so like, No, no, no, I'm
not losing you. You you you say you you did
so much for this nation and and my my my
country can and my nation could never be any better
(13:20):
than it is right now because you gave me the
foundations of success and one of the most pinnacle nations
in the history of the world. Past president in the future.
And he's like, I swore to my father, I made
an oath. This is what I'm going to do.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
This is where making promises.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
It's so key. It's so key to basically say, if
I'm going to make a promise, following through. My boss
talks to me about it. But the whole idea is,
if I promise something, I need to follow through. If
we promise something, we need to follow through because without
without our follow through, without our follow up on what
we said we were going to do. We lose all
(14:05):
credibility if we can't we can't produce, if we can't
if we cannot do it. So it's not just in
the regular world, it's in the world. It's in the
world of as a as a spouse, as a child,
as a family member, as a as a co worker,
as a a human individual. If we make promises of
(14:25):
what we're supposed to do and we don't follow through,
we lack any credibility. And I think the reason why
we sometimes miss our targets, and sometimes I think the
reason why we miss our our promises is because we
have so much activity going on, and we think that
we can juggle everything and be successful at everything at
(14:47):
the same time, rather than just focusing on being successful
in just one area doing our best in that area.
And once we establish a consistency and having one of
my former bosses, he's he shared some really good books
with me about that as well too, about the whole
idea of just the what was it was one of
those books about that out there, the Seven Habits of
(15:08):
highly Effective People. And I think that what once we
once we keep up and follow through on what we
promise the people will recognize I can count on this
person and do what they said they would do. And
this isn't the only time that Joseph. Joseph has gone
(15:29):
to Pharaoh to ask for leave. Do you remember he
went to go get his father out of the famine
and bring him back to Egypt. So there was a
relationship here and with the funeral arrangements. And another thing
too about this well is now with his father gone,
(15:50):
if there was any point in time where Joseph was
fixated on his father more than he needed to do
in the kingdom is to be it is Pharaoh's best
interest to let his fother so that his best worker
can get back to making his kingdom great. Mega, making
Egypt great again instead of Maga, we have Mega. Oh
(16:18):
my goodness. Wow, oh wow, pray for me, Please pray
for me. Ah. So he's making you enragements. Wow, Mega,
I need help. Uh oh yeah yeah yeah. So let's
look at verse seven and this is honored in death.
This is this is I'm not gonna lie to you
(16:39):
this part. Really, every time I read this passage, this
really gets me because of the fact that what happens
here just listenless so Joseph went to bury his father
went up to bury his father. With him went all
barrow servants, the leaders of his household, and the leaders
(17:01):
of the land of Egypt. Along with the entire household
of Yoseph, his brothers, and his father's household, and only
their little ones, their flocks, and their cattle did they
leave in the land of Goshen. Moreover, moreover there went up.
There went up with him, both chariots and horsemen. It
(17:22):
was a very large caravan. Now again the idea that
that that the household, that Pharaoh sent his whole household
to go with Joseph, it literally shows how much how
(17:44):
we spend so much time fixated in the wrong areas
and not building up the right foundation. We have our
hands in too many different things, and we just don't
understand why is it we can never succeed. But when
people have confidence in what we do, when people have
confidence that we will follow through, when people have seen
(18:06):
our track record of consistency, they show their appreciation.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
I know my job.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
They have these things where you know, if you stand
out on doing things and people can continue to consistently
rely on you, they'll sing you like this a link
to this one award rewards site just to show their
appreciation for how you've contributed to helping their team succeed.
(18:33):
And I think that when we get into the habit
and don't do it for looking for the reward, do
it because it's our character. I think that's I think
that's probably the reason why we fail so much, is
that we do some great things often, but we often
do those great things because we're looking for the initial reward.
(18:55):
We're looking for the initial payback on doing something good
for nature. I mean when you think about when you
think about the way Chief and I talked about this,
when we mess up as Christians and and the way
we the way instead of just following to our instead
of just following what God's word says, what we do
is we get invested into activities like soup kitchens and
(19:18):
and and feeding the poor and clothing and serving in
all these different areas, doing a little bit extra for
God in ministry to try and basically wipe away the
wrong that we done in the dark, in the in
the in the when no one's looking and it's like no, no, no,
(19:40):
be obedient. We should be obedient with God. Not because
of the fact that we're looking for the reward we
want to be with the obedience of God because of
the fact that we have a relationship with Him. It's
kind of like even the idea that you know, even
in marriage, parenting, or even being children, it doesn't matter
what role we are. See, yes, when we work, we
(20:03):
get paid, but when we are when we really work,
because we really it doesn't matter. Now I'm not just
talking about your job. I'm talking about in every aspect
of our life. When we really work and we put
in the we put forth the effort, and people recognize
(20:23):
what it is that we're doing. They see that we're invested,
not because we're just looking for the financial aspect of it,
but there's an emotional there's a physiological there's every ogical,
our emotional, you know, old thing that you can imagine.
They can see the connection and see how much we've
(20:43):
invested into it. And it's not just the financial aspect.
It is the aspect because of the fact that by
the nature of who we are as humans to be
relational and that we we appreciate relationships that we have,
God blesses us. When we truly show we can love
our we can love our neighbor, as ourselves, you know,
(21:07):
instead of you know, just doing it out of selfish gain.
But we're doing it for the glory of God instead
of the glory of us. And that speaks volumes on
how we impact and it flows down to affect other people.
This this idea that I'm still baffled about. How many
people went to this funeral service. This is just mind
(21:32):
boggling to know that the Lord has done this. I mean,
this is just a powerful message. Let's see, let's go
to go the next one here. When they arrived at
the threshing floor in a todd beyond the ard, they
raised a loud and bitter lamentation mourning for his father.
(21:52):
Seven days when the local inhabitants, the ken and I
cannot deny, saw them, saw the morning floor on the
saw the morning on the floor of a toad. They said,
how bitterly the Egyptians are mourning. This is why the
place was given the name avel Mitzrayem Mourning of Egypt,
(22:15):
Mourning of Egypt there beyond the yard. And see, sometimes
sometimes we do. I'm not gonna lie to you. This
is uh as I walk away from Churchianity, not Christianity,
(22:41):
Churchianity and I think of all the emotional stuff, all
the play acting I've seen in church. I remember growing
up back in New York, and my mom wanted us.
We were raised Roman Catholic, but there was a few
times where we couldn't make it to the Catholic church,
(23:02):
and my dad brought us to the Baptist church in
our town. I'm not gonna lie to you. It was
night and day. Catholic Church was nice and quiet and calm.
I was able to stare there looking at the statues
and fantasize about battles and all these other different things
when I was sitting in the pew quietly between doing
(23:24):
the motion of the Trinity, standing kneeling, doing everything that
we needed to do during the time that we were
in Catholic church. But the Baptist Church, the Baptist Coostal Church,
scared the living snot out of me because it seemed
like that church. I felt like I was inside of
the beetlejuice House, where that place was rocking left and right,
(23:46):
and every time around one o'clock the same woman ran
down the center of the aisle and she flailing her
hands and getting slain in the spirit. I'm not lying.
It's scared. It scared me like there's no tomorrow. And
I've been in churches. Why, I've watched the slay and
the spirit individuals and the people carrying on making a
(24:07):
mockery of faith. I think like animals, and so much so.
And the ones who are less, less extreme in their performance,
but they still get up there and they give their
testimonies over and over and over again without a changed lifestyle.
That just drove me up the wall when I see
(24:30):
this kind of behavior, I mean again, we talked about
this the other day, Chief and I about the whole
idea is that we look even when Yashua called out
the Pharisees of how they prayed, they would stand up,
stand up with pride and no humility, bragging about their religiosity.
(24:54):
And we see that a lot in churches that we
brag about. We brag about how much we donate, we
brag about how much we serve the community, we brag
about whose life we've changed. But it's all about what
that church has done and not what the Lord has done.
All the energy goes into this church with multiple locations
(25:17):
and multiple people and multiple this multiple again, I'm not
against church, but what we've been instituting for the last
two thousand years.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
It is.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
It's been a sham, and I've been part of it too.
That's the part about it that just hurts me more
than anything else, because of the fact that I wasn't obedient,
And if we truly be told, if with truth be told,
we would truly say that we haven't been obedient as well.
We're struggling to be consistent in our walk, We're struggling
to be consistent in our faith. I'm telling you, the
(25:53):
reckoning is coming for us. The reckoning is coming for us,
and we will either leave a legacy that trends that's obedience,
or we'll leave a legacy that trends that's obstinates. And
we just have to make that decision of which path
that we want to take. Because I'm tired of all
(26:14):
the play acting that I've done for far too long,
and I'm hoping that you're feeling the same exact way
as well too. But this is just so emotional, I mean,
he realizes. So there was forty days of preparing for
the obombing, and there were seventy days that they were mourning,
seventy days that the Egyptians mourned the loss of either
(26:38):
they truly appreciated who Joseph was. I'm not Joseph, but
Jacob Israel was, or they just loved Joseph so much
and they could feel his grief and pain and they
wanted to be there for him. And then we get
down to verses ten through eleven. It talks about the
whole idea of how they mourned his fire. Another seven days,
(27:01):
another week, seventy seven days of mourning, and we mind
you too. We haven't even talked about how long it
took them to get there. We haven't talked. We haven't
talked about how long it took them to get from
Egypt to where they would bury him. And swaths of
(27:23):
people that have to go across certain lands.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
This was, this was.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
This is not calling Uber, this is not calling Amtrak,
This isn't calling Delta. This is calling this is calling
left foot and right foot and moving to get to
this funeral recession. So this, the way that this is
transpired is just one inspiring for me. And I'm not
gonna lie to you. I thank God for this, just
(27:50):
the lessons being learned. I'm not looking for an entourage
to follow me at burial. I'm looking for an on
Raj that will live for Ada and eye for Yahweh
at my burial. You get that because because I don't
(28:11):
need the accolades. All the accolades belong to add Anye
and our commitment, your commitment to follow him. Because if
if I have not set an example, now mind you,
maybe I did set an example, it would make could
be it probably could be a decent one that I merit,
well done, good and faithful servant. But if I'm not, Lord,
(28:36):
forgive me, Lord's changed me. Lord mold me that I
would truly be a vessel for your honor, glory and praise.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Let's go to break people, and I'll.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
Talk to you amazing people on the flip side some one
Verse one, How blessed are those who reject the advice
of the wicked, don't stand on the way of sinners,
(29:08):
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. Verst
two says, their delight is innatornized Torah on his tor
(29:29):
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
His streams. They bear their fruit in season, their leaves
never wither. Everything they do succeeds. First tree is basically
hinting that there's life in them, and it's not murky,
(29:51):
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 an imitation
of wheat that has no substance and has no value,
and it's easily manipulated. For this reason, the wicked won't
(30:13):
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 Tora, 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 the way of the wicked
(30:35):
is doomed. In other words, if our goal is to
reject Adenai, 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.
(30:56):
Why because we rejected his truth triggering change one heartbeat
at a time. Battle for Freedom.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Welcome back everyone.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
I'm your host Watson Premier from Battle for Freedom and
Mojio Fiber Radio. I appreciate every last one of you.
We continue this broadcast today as we we're finishing Genesis
Legacy Learner and leader trendsetting obedience.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
So we're now dealing.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
With the Joseph yo israel Kov died last time we spoke,
and now we get into the funeral, the morning and
the funeral, and it's what kind of legacy we live
leave behind. I'm not lying to you when you sit
there and you look at this. There's so much in
(31:59):
Genesis that I'm just wondering. The only reason why Christian
families in churchyanity looks so dysfunctional because we have zero order,
we have zero boundaries, We have a zero understanding of
what parenting and family and honoring God looks like and
(32:23):
it's really sad because again, I know a lot of
you dismissing me.
Speaker 3 (32:25):
I don't want to get back to sacrifices, and I
don't want to get.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
Back you know what, your obstinence instead of obedience, not
obedience to me, obedience to the Lord. First Damuel fifteen
twenty two says, I desire obedience over sacrifice. I desire
obedience over sacrifice because I think that a lot of
times we come to we approach God with confidence and
(32:51):
uber confidence, like he should be happy that we're here
and that we're in his presence. We're a blessing to him,
and the world is so much better because I'm here
and because of my wit and my participation and what
I'm offering society. Uh Yo. Something that something that Chief
and I found the other day that just blows in
(33:13):
the midst of a conversation about how we approach God
and how fakeness happens, because we talked a little bit
about Genesis fifty and uh something we both found.
Speaker 3 (33:30):
It's just.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
It completely flattened us. I think it's John eleven. Is
a John eleven where Lazarus dies and he's buried he's dead.
For he's dead for four days, Mariam and Martha set
sent out people, go get go, get your shoe with
(33:53):
bring him back to save, save, and heal his servant
before he dies. He doesn't get there, but two attitudes.
Two attitudes. I want you to understand between those who
followed who have Messianic faith and those who have a
Churchianic faith Messianic Churchianic. This decision is yours because as
(34:22):
you continue to rebuke me and others who are trying
to get you into Torah, you are more of a
Churchianic faith than you are a Messianic faith. So Lazarus
is dead, their morning is sure is on the way.
(34:43):
Martha realizes, oh, yep, he's here. He's on the way.
I gotta confront him on what took place here this
read this for yourself, Okay. So it turns out Martha
runs up to the Lord and says, yo, had you
been here, my brother wouldn't have died. What you gonna
(35:05):
do about it? Yeah, I'm giving you they Bonix version.
But more and more likely that's the modern day version
of our attitude towards God. When we don't get when
we approach God with disrespect, expecting him to bless us.
We're completely ungrateful. And he said, yeah, I'll take care
(35:26):
of it. It wasn't moved, he wasn't rushed. He just like,
I'll take care of it. Don't worry about it. But
when Mary found out Miriam found out she was moved,
she got up from the morning and she ran up
to the Lord and asked him the same EQO exact question,
but there was a difference. I want you to read
(35:48):
this for yourself, okay, But in Genesis eleven, Mary approaches
the Lord and says, Lord, if you had been here,
my brother would not have died. But there's a part
that we miss. She fell on her face, She fell
down and worshiped him. She gave him honor, she gave
(36:10):
him praise. Before she could say a thing to him,
the first thing she did was obediently worship her lord,
her king. That's a huge, huge, huge difference. And your
Shua says, if you love me, if you worship me,
keep my commandments. The commandments that we keep saying don't
(36:34):
matter anymore. Because we're in a new covenant. We approach
God like, hey, yo yo yo, handle your business and
bless me. Lord I have no I don't come to
you with any requirements. I don't come to you with
any obedience. I'm just making my demands right now. Answer
(36:55):
me now, speak of my time. Clap clap, move, move.
We treat when we treat him in Churchianity, we treat
God like a genie instead of the creator of the universe,
the one who controls our eternal destiny. Well, all we
act like we just said a formal we said Romans
(37:16):
t we said the Roman Road to Salvation. And I'm
guaranteeing into heaven. There's nothing more for me to do.
I've got my golden ticket. I've got my golden ticket,
you know, Willy Wonker. No no, no, no, no, no, no,
(37:37):
too different. And I'm telling you the spirit of Churchianity,
the Church Annics, the church you antics versus the Messianics
the churchy Annis. Well, we'll approach God. No, I don't
have to live right for you. I don't have to
live according to your tour that never died. I don't
have to live acording to that stuff. I'm just gonna
go by this grace on grace on top of grace
(37:58):
that I've been learning for so long. I don't have
to change my life. I just have to approach you
whenever I need something or I want something. Huge difference, folks.
And I believe that the life towards the end of
Yakov's life, of Israel's life, reflected more of a Merry
(38:18):
spirit than of a Martha spirit, because a lot of
us get very active doing a lot of quote unquote
things for God. And you know we're going to hear
when it's all said and done, the most faithful words,
fateful words you'd ever want to hear, depart from me.
(38:41):
You workers of lawlessness. I never knew you, y'all. Let
that set in for a little bit there, That the ruth,
because how many people have died and we don't even
remember who they are or what they've done. How many
people have passed away, and and they're just they're dust.
(39:04):
They're dust, They're they're they're might, they're they're so insignificant
in our memories.
Speaker 3 (39:11):
They were, they were gone that fast. They don't even
matter anymore. I don't. I don't.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
Again, I'm not saying, set up a legacy so people
remember you for it, because again, legacies can be tarnished,
or images of one's legacy can be tarnished, but the
truth stands the test of time. The truth, the teachings
(39:42):
stand the test of time. We may fade away, but
his truth, his word, stands the test of time. I
just I don't think we fully understand the dynamics of
what is being required of us here, even as we
(40:04):
finish up Genesis. I don't think we fully understand the dynamics.
But when we look at this thing here, of this
last verse ten through eleven, now we get into.
Speaker 3 (40:20):
The celebration of life. That's what it was. It was
a celebration of life.
Speaker 1 (40:26):
Yes we call it mourning, but I see it as
a celebration of life because it's not the life that
it's not the life that's that has left, it's the
life that's birthing and will continue to live. Now that
I'm no longer here.
Speaker 3 (40:49):
You get that.
Speaker 1 (40:52):
We're so busy focusing on the past that we stopped
living in the present and for the future. And that's
the difference between a churchy anik and a messianic here
as you see fit. But I'm telling you we are
(41:16):
going to be judged.
Speaker 3 (41:19):
Move on. Moving on.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
For those who don't want to hear the truth anymore,
let's look at this verse twelve. His sons did to him,
did to him as he ordered them to do. They
carried him into the land of Kantanan and buried him
in the cave in the field of Machpelah, which Avraham
had bought along with the field as a burial place
(41:42):
belonging to him from Ephron. The Hitti of Baimamra. Oh,
I love these go oh, come on, folks, Come on.
Speaker 3 (41:52):
Folks, Come on, come on, go on, go on on.
Speaker 1 (41:56):
This place has so I've never appreciated. I've never appreciated
this field more than I do right now. The oaks
of the oaks of Mamra, macfella, this this, this place
is so beautiful because this was the place where this
(42:20):
is the place where Avraham, Avram to Avraham's faith was
best lived out when he worshiped the Lord without restraint.
Speaker 3 (42:34):
That's why.
Speaker 1 (42:35):
That's why, my fella, that's why the oaks of Mamra
are so beautiful. If we had another child, I think
I've made them oaks of Mamra because it's such a
beautiful place. It's that place that we thought that we
truly enjoyed. You know, when we get to that honeymoon
stage of faith, and we're just we just love the
(42:57):
Lord with everything, where where, where, where we are sprinkling,
We're sprinkling Jesus dust everywhere. See that's the Faids because
because again without the foundations of Tora to understand why
we are truly saved, what we were saved from, a
(43:20):
lot of that is just emotional stuff. And people burn
out from faith. I'm sorry when you burn out, We're not.
We never were established in faith. We didn't have a legacy.
We did not have a legacy of faith and learning
and obedience. We had a very emotional moment. Oh you
(43:44):
canna tell me about my conversion.
Speaker 3 (43:45):
You can tell me.
Speaker 1 (43:46):
About how's how's our living? You see you get that.
I didn't say how's your living? I said how's our living?
And if we can't sit there and honest it with truthfulness,
depart from me, you workers of lawlessness. I never knew you. Then,
(44:16):
after burying his father, Yoseph returned to Egypt. He his
brothers and all who had gone up with him to
bury his father. So pivoting after death, it's because I
think this is the this is the key that happens.
Really again, remember and I said earlier. The focus isn't
(44:38):
Joseph the dead one. Remember what she said to the
people when he's calling people to follow him. Oh, Dad, Lord,
permit me to go back and bury my father because
he died. And what did they say?
Speaker 6 (44:51):
The Lord, Lord say, let the dead bury the dead
because the living will be following me for my glory
and we don't have time living in the past or dying.
Speaker 3 (45:08):
In the past.
Speaker 1 (45:09):
So you get that the dead because get remember people
who are dying, who get to that that terminal stage
where there is is there past the point of an overturn,
the Lord calls them dead already. They're like the Walking
Dead Crazy series. Many people in churchy Any and Church
(45:31):
the churchy Annicks are the walking dead and they don't
realize it. The Lord said, let the dead bury the
dead because because the living pivot after that. I know
it took me years to get over and losing my
(45:52):
mom when I was when I was a senior in
high school, actually on a I dropped out of school
two days later. I didn't go back to school, I
did not finish my I did not finish my senior year.
My mom was everything to me, and losing her on
(46:15):
December thirty first, nineteen eighty eight, at twenty one hundred hours,
had literally shaped my life. I became an alcoholic to
hide the pain of dealing with the loss of my mother.
I became an alcoholic, and it was it was really bad.
(46:43):
I drank people underneath the table. I did everything I
could because it took me forever to pivot away from
that loss. You know, when my dad died on my
birthday two years ago, on the morning give my fifty
second birthday, Yeah, it's stung for a second, but I've
(47:08):
moved on. Don't think that I've forgotten the people who
are responsible for as death. But I've moved on. And
I think that many of us right now we spend
too much time mourning those who are dead that we
stop living. We mourn the dead, and we just don't
(47:34):
know how to move on when there's death. And sometimes
there's someone who has died. It could even be the
end of a relationship. It could be the end of
a friendship. It can be so many different things. We
could even be fired from a job, and we sit
there mourning for so long rather than getting up and
doing what's necessary to provide for ourselves and our families.
Speaker 3 (48:00):
We spent.
Speaker 1 (48:00):
I think we we obsess over death more so than
anything else. And Uh, I mean you can see it
by the end of the way we react to stars
and famous people dying. We obsess over death. But then
there are people who live pivoting after death. This is
what's really key. And the question is whether or not
(48:22):
we want to respond or do we want to We
want to live forward, move forward. Realizing that their father
was dead, Yoseph's brother said, Joseph may hate us now
and pay us back in full for all the suffering
we caused him. So they sent a message to Joseph
and said your which said your father gave this order
(48:44):
before he died. Say to Joseph, I beg you now
please forgive your brother's crime and wickedness in doing you harm.
So now we beg you forgive, forgive the crime of
the servants of the god of your father. Joseph wept
when they spoke to him, and Uh and his brothers
(49:04):
came to him, prostrated themselves before him and said, here
we are your slaves.
Speaker 3 (49:11):
This is.
Speaker 1 (49:14):
This is it's I'm glad. We don't know exactly how
much time passed when this when this this action activity
took place. But I want you to understand something. Because
their father's dead, the period of morning is over, and
now they're fearful, see, because there's a lot of different things.
What I see here is regret but no remorse. Regret
(49:39):
but no remorse. Seat Because the thing about it is,
why didn't they just ask him for forgiveness before his
father died? We have no documentation of them asking for
forgiveness before their father died, So that means said, and
(50:00):
this whole time, all they've been doing has been bandwagoning
and writing the coattails of their brother they tried to
kill or they sold off into slavery. And now they're like,
your father, say, gave us order, and we know how
much you.
Speaker 3 (50:15):
Listened to Dad. Don't hurt them, forgive them. How do
we know that's even true?
Speaker 1 (50:22):
See? Because if if it true, if they had just
asked for forgiveness, if they had just confessed their crimes
and asked for forgiveness, they never would have needed the
word of their father. Or had they done it right,
had they asked for forgiveness while their father was still alive,
(50:44):
so they would they would have heard directly Joseph in
the present. I mean, Yoseph would have heard his father
directly say, don't harm your brothers, forgive them, But we
don't have an account of that. So all I see
you right here, right now is regret but no remorse,
because if they truly were remorseful for their actions, they
(51:04):
would have sought forgiveness long before their father perished. They've
been an egyp for a long time, man, long long gone,
and now they're gonna turn around and that, Yo, don't
do anything to us. You have every right to. We're
compelling you, by your love for your father not to
bring us an your arm. And he said, don't do it,
(51:26):
so we know you're gonna follow with Dad says, I.
Speaker 3 (51:31):
See the same mentality in us.
Speaker 1 (51:33):
In churchyanity, we come to God with no We come
to God with regret but no remorse.
Speaker 3 (51:41):
For our actions. Let me say that again.
Speaker 1 (51:45):
We come to God with regret but no remorse for
our actions, because if they're truly were, if there truly
was remorse, we love him and we keep his commandments.
(52:07):
It doesn't it doesn't get any easier than this, folks.
The path has been laid out. The question is whether
or not we want to be obedient or do we
want to live in disobedience? O Joseph said to him,
said to them, don't be afraid. Am I in the
(52:28):
place of God. You see, we love this passage. This
is this is We focus on this passage more than
anything else. I think between Genesis chapter one, two and
three and chapter fifty, I think that's all we see
when we look at Genesis. It's like what I've read Genesis,
(52:49):
what two, three fifty? Yes, I'm done reading that long book.
Speaker 3 (52:57):
Let me check this out. This is amazing.
Speaker 1 (52:59):
It says you meant to do me hard, but God
meant it for good, so that it would be it
would come about as it is today with many people's
lives being saved. So don't be afraid. I'll provide for
you and your little ones in this way. He comforted them,
speaking kindly to them. And this is where I love
(53:20):
this is because of the fact that this is meekness,
not weakness. He also has every right to open up
a can of whoopbud on these people, and he didn't.
The Lord has every right to execute execute his wrath
(53:41):
upon us because of our sins against him against him.
We may think we're only affecting other people, or we're
not hurting anybody, but we're offending God. Meekness, not weakness,
is what God aprove that crast to die in our stead. Meekness,
(54:04):
not weakness, is what descended from Heaven, take on human
flesh to set the example of how we can live
out his instructions. Meekness, not weakness, is what restrains him
from annihilating us, to give us an opportunity to yield
(54:28):
before we die, to yield to him. Meekness not weakness.
I don't think we understand it yet, but the Lord
will waken us up. Yoseph continued living in Egypt. He
(54:53):
in his father's household. Yoseph lived one hundred and ten years.
Yoseph lived to see Ephraim's great grandchildren and the children
of Manassa's son Makiir Akir were born to Joseph's knees.
He lived a long and prosperous life so that people
can see. He could see his posterity, He could see
(55:16):
and watch the obedience that his father lived, that he
has lived, and he can watch his generations. Listen, listen, listen.
I'm gonna Lord, just keep me around long enough to
help you understand, don't deviate from this path. And sometimes
we think we're going to be around long enough so
we can go do our bucket list of life. No, no, no, no,
(55:39):
we get a blessings of an obedient extended life to
see our posterity, to.
Speaker 3 (55:43):
Warn them, not spoil them.
Speaker 1 (55:49):
Warn them. That's the thing about it I can't stand
about American culture is that when grandparents decide that they
want to spoil their grandchildren, that is that is so
anti family, that is so sinful and wicked. I'm gonna
spoil I'm gonna turn your children into hellens. Oh you
(56:10):
didn't do a bad enough job failing with me that
you and I want to affect my children. Uh, that
One'm sorry as long as we actually we go back
to this one here, Oh I did this wrong. I'm sorry,
(56:33):
but I got a whole bunch of wrong ones here.
Meekness out weakness. Uh, watch his watch his people. Well,
you also said to his brothers, I'm gonna go to
twenty four. I don't have this on here. Forgive me.
He also said to his brothers, I am dying, but
God will surely remember you and bring you up out
(56:55):
of this land. In the land which he swore to
Avraham getzak and the yachtgove. Then Yoseph took an oath
from the sons of Israel. God will surely remember you,
and you are to carry my bones up from here.
So Yoseph died at the age of one hundred and ten,
and they embolved him and put him in a coffin.
Speaker 3 (57:19):
In Egypt. See.
Speaker 1 (57:22):
This is what's really powerful about this is that as
he's dying.
Speaker 3 (57:29):
As the eugh as this last pillar, this last pillar
of patriarchy.
Speaker 1 (57:41):
Isaac was the big pillar, but Joseph, he was the
last remembrance before he closes his eyes, the blessings of Egypt.
The Lord let him see one hundred and ten years
see generations follow after him. And let me see if
(58:02):
I have this on here. Yeah, here it goes. This
is the booke end of Genesis and the book end
of this message. Proverb twenty two six. Train a child
in the way he should go, and even when old,
(58:25):
he will not swerve from it. This is we love.
We love this verse. We love train up a child verse.
Speaker 3 (58:37):
Right.
Speaker 1 (58:38):
We know provert twenty two six. We know prover twenty
two six all day long. But you know what we
don't know Deuteronomy Deuteronomy six, We don't know the schmah.
These words with I'm ordering you today are to be
on your heart, and you are to teach them carefully
to your children. You are to talk about them when
(59:01):
you sit at home, when you are traveling on the road,
when you lie down, and when you get up. Train
up a child. That's the verse that helps us train
up a child. How how do I do this, Watson?
These words which I'm ordering you today, And I think
(59:21):
that the reason and this is the legacy you live.
When we train up our children, we train up our
family so that they know what the truth looks They
see what wickedness looks like, but they see the glory
of God through his word, through Torah. How we've taught them,
we've we've put away the activities of Churchianity don't raise
(59:43):
CHURCHI annex raise Messianics. And for far too long what
we have had in the product of Christendom has been
a bunch of CHURCHI annis and zero Messianics. And the
proof is in the pudding.
