WEBVTT

00:00.031 --> 00:06.037
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's now turn to the book of Luke, chapter 10 verse 2.

00:11.243 --> 00:24.317
[SPEAKER_00]: Luke, chapter 10 verse 2, and once you do, you can please stand on the reading of God's

00:25.462 --> 00:34.274
[SPEAKER_00]: Jesus says this, He said to them, the harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few.

00:35.376 --> 00:41.524
[SPEAKER_00]: Pray there for the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.

00:42.165 --> 00:44.549
[SPEAKER_00]: God bless, and honor the ring of His word, and you may be seated.

00:46.391 --> 00:48.114
[SPEAKER_00]: The last day of November is here.

00:48.174 --> 00:48.955
[SPEAKER_00]: This is it.

00:49.436 --> 00:50.537
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the last day of November.

00:50.577 --> 00:54.102
[SPEAKER_00]: We're about to start the very last month of the year.

00:54.706 --> 00:59.274
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a lot of times where people start looking back and pondering of what they've done throughout the year.

00:59.374 --> 01:02.740
[SPEAKER_00]: Have I done anything that's very good?

01:02.760 --> 01:06.466
[SPEAKER_00]: Have I done anything that is good to live upon?

01:07.709 --> 01:12.156
[SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes people are so busy looking upon the holiday or holidays.

01:12.216 --> 01:13.479
[SPEAKER_00]: It's some may call it.

01:14.200 --> 01:16.824
[SPEAKER_00]: And they start thinking about what they have to do still.

01:17.265 --> 01:18.908
[SPEAKER_00]: They don't start thinking about what they have done.

01:19.816 --> 01:21.959
[SPEAKER_00]: And sometimes they're looking upon taxes.

01:21.979 --> 01:22.880
[SPEAKER_00]: This is what we understand that.

01:22.920 --> 01:26.945
[SPEAKER_00]: But they stop to look about to what the taxes represent.

01:27.946 --> 01:30.970
[SPEAKER_00]: And the presentation of what has been throughout the year.

01:31.030 --> 01:37.258
[SPEAKER_00]: And so I say, November, here in America, November, is the last of fall.

01:37.919 --> 01:44.026
[SPEAKER_00]: As I said to the call it, at least almost, because it doesn't technically start until near the last of December.

01:44.066 --> 01:49.333
[SPEAKER_00]: But fall, autumn, it's thought of as harvest time here in America.

01:49.550 --> 01:52.975
[SPEAKER_00]: But in Israel, we need this harvest season.

01:53.175 --> 01:55.779
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, some people don't realize when it is.

01:56.440 --> 02:01.387
[SPEAKER_00]: And so it may be thought of a strange that I'm going to have a certain known as harvest time.

02:01.507 --> 02:07.255
[SPEAKER_00]: But in reality, harvest season is the most of Thomas, Thomas,

02:07.235 --> 02:15.787
[SPEAKER_00]: It was just a fourth month in the Hebrew calendar, and a little, which is the sixth and final month in the Hebrew calendar.

02:16.508 --> 02:17.149
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll talk about that.

02:17.169 --> 02:27.184
[SPEAKER_00]: At the moment, the Hebrew calendar is Luna Solar, Luna Solar calendar, which harmonizes the moon of the sun, the moon of the sun.

02:27.164 --> 02:33.317
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll talk more about the calendar coming up in January, not so much today, but we will talk about that then.

02:33.758 --> 02:40.993
[SPEAKER_00]: However, a couple weeks ago, a couple weeks ago, we had a sermon, known as feast time, that a sermon goes along with that a little bit.

02:41.775 --> 02:44.160
[SPEAKER_00]: In that sermon about feast time,

02:44.140 --> 02:49.891
[SPEAKER_00]: in which my microphone, which I'm assuming is on the right now, my microphone was off them.

02:49.931 --> 02:55.201
[SPEAKER_00]: And so we didn't hear as well, but it is on now, so I hope that you can hear it now.

02:55.561 --> 03:02.715
[SPEAKER_00]: But we talked about feast time, and we talked about the nine Jewish feasts, which are holidays.

03:02.795 --> 03:06.081
[SPEAKER_00]: There's only seven of them in the Old Testament for most of it.

03:06.061 --> 03:08.687
[SPEAKER_00]: but we talked about that then.

03:08.747 --> 03:17.125
[SPEAKER_00]: Today we're going to talk about the harvest time and what the harvest time represents and yes it does fit with you in your life.

03:17.706 --> 03:21.434
[SPEAKER_00]: So there are three ceases of harvest time in Israel, three of them.

03:22.136 --> 03:26.365
[SPEAKER_00]: So first let's turn to Exodus chapter 34 of

03:26.345 --> 03:37.575
[SPEAKER_00]: Exodus 34.2 talks about the feasts and it talks about the days of harvest and it names them and names them and that's in Exodus 34.2.

03:38.596 --> 03:43.040
[SPEAKER_00]: It talks about the feasts, talks about the harvest, it talks about all them very well.

03:43.561 --> 03:51.188
[SPEAKER_00]: So these harvest times in Israel which come in handy when it talks about spiritual matters, it mentions them.

03:51.308 --> 03:54.411
[SPEAKER_00]: It goes along with a lot of the feasts that we

03:57.007 --> 04:03.628
[SPEAKER_00]: So what it's accessory for verse 22, say to us, it says, you must remember that it's the Lord God talking now.

04:03.989 --> 04:05.293
[SPEAKER_00]: And he's saying this to Moses.

04:05.514 --> 04:10.189
[SPEAKER_00]: His Moses is on Mount Sinai, because you must observe the feast of weeks.

04:11.198 --> 04:21.714
[SPEAKER_00]: The first fruits of the wheat harvest, and now it's the second one, and the feast of engathering at the end of the year.

04:22.656 --> 04:25.941
[SPEAKER_00]: So number one, the number one harvest time is the feast of weeks.

04:26.001 --> 04:27.163
[SPEAKER_00]: Now what is the feast of weeks?

04:27.203 --> 04:28.004
[SPEAKER_00]: It's one of the holidays.

04:28.465 --> 04:30.468
[SPEAKER_00]: The feast of the weeks is Chavut.

04:31.129 --> 04:32.992
[SPEAKER_00]: I like the name of Chavut.

04:33.312 --> 04:36.737
[SPEAKER_00]: Chavut, which is known as Pentecost, the many.

04:37.278 --> 04:39.822
[SPEAKER_00]: Pentecost means 50th.

04:39.802 --> 04:41.585
[SPEAKER_00]: the 50th.

04:41.605 --> 04:43.027
[SPEAKER_00]: So there's the Feast of Weeks.

04:44.208 --> 04:47.133
[SPEAKER_00]: Now that's 50 days after the whole thing began.

04:47.153 --> 04:51.740
[SPEAKER_00]: 50th, Shah Vood.

04:52.340 --> 04:57.949
[SPEAKER_00]: And then there's the second harvest, the second time of harvest, which is the first fruits of harvest.

04:58.449 --> 05:07.783
[SPEAKER_00]: Also known as Yamhabbeekorium, Yamhabbeekorium, which means to give your

05:07.763 --> 05:13.792
[SPEAKER_00]: I always take it back to that song, give of your best to the master, give of the best that you have.

05:14.273 --> 05:18.980
[SPEAKER_00]: We're not just to give something, we're to give our best to God, give the best.

05:19.000 --> 05:29.957
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know some people who wouldn't give pies, they think, well, I'll give my offering and reality when you give time, you give a tenth of what you have, but giving offering is giving more than that.

05:29.937 --> 05:36.705
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, that's twin you in the Lord, what's you give, but we gave while ago, we had our brothers come forward and go around with the offering play.

05:36.725 --> 05:37.285
[SPEAKER_00]: That's giving.

05:37.626 --> 05:41.110
[SPEAKER_00]: Some people give more than that, not just do they give money, but they also give time.

05:41.170 --> 05:49.159
[SPEAKER_00]: When they serve here at the church, or they give other offerings to people around the world, that's twin you in the Lord, but you feel led to do.

05:49.599 --> 05:50.841
[SPEAKER_00]: But that's a wonderful thing.

05:51.221 --> 05:54.084
[SPEAKER_00]: We are to support our local church, and we're also to support other things.

05:54.104 --> 05:58.189
[SPEAKER_00]: If God lives on your heart, what's the next thing?

05:59.114 --> 06:02.899
[SPEAKER_00]: the third one is that what is the harvests is the feast of ingathering.

06:03.360 --> 06:07.706
[SPEAKER_00]: A feast of ingathering is the end of the year the fall feast.

06:08.307 --> 06:15.196
[SPEAKER_00]: The fall feast, see if it's the fall feast, which is Rosh Hashana, I like that name, to Rosh Hashana.

06:15.597 --> 06:16.238
[SPEAKER_00]: Isn't that nice?

06:16.398 --> 06:20.063
[SPEAKER_00]: Rosh Hashana means the feast of trumpets, the feast of trumpets.

06:20.083 --> 06:22.206
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, folks, just what I'll go.

06:22.246 --> 06:25.290
[SPEAKER_00]: The mother was seeing the nice song of the last days of coming.

06:25.405 --> 06:27.849
[SPEAKER_00]: folks, the trumpets are going to sound.

06:28.450 --> 06:29.792
[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to be the time.

06:29.812 --> 06:33.798
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, Seth and I used to come up with a sing that song.

06:34.219 --> 06:37.865
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, we're peace like a rib and not a skewer, wrong song, wrong song.

06:38.205 --> 06:39.868
[SPEAKER_00]: We sing it as well.

06:40.088 --> 06:43.313
[SPEAKER_00]: And I always say that when we sing that in the last

06:43.293 --> 06:51.489
[SPEAKER_00]: And Lord, haste today, and the house be rolled back as they scroll and folks that trump it.

06:51.650 --> 06:52.952
[SPEAKER_00]: The trumpet is going to sound.

06:53.413 --> 06:58.684
[SPEAKER_00]: And all those clouds are going to be rolled back and all then you're going to see horses come down.

06:58.744 --> 07:00.086
[SPEAKER_00]: And you're going to be on the horse.

07:00.587 --> 07:01.529
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to be on the horse.

07:01.890 --> 07:03.934
[SPEAKER_00]: All of us, who are going to be on the horse.

07:03.914 --> 07:07.100
[SPEAKER_00]: I've always wanted to be on a horse, you know, fellow means lover of horses.

07:07.641 --> 07:08.724
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the meaning of my name.

07:09.405 --> 07:11.409
[SPEAKER_00]: But all the horses don't necessarily want to have me on them.

07:11.690 --> 07:12.331
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't blame them.

07:12.591 --> 07:13.393
[SPEAKER_00]: I can imagine.

07:14.355 --> 07:15.537
[SPEAKER_00]: I've only been on horse one time.

07:15.838 --> 07:21.790
[SPEAKER_00]: I got on that horse that horse because and some people say, we just say, hi, uh, I saw that face.

07:21.810 --> 07:24.876
[SPEAKER_00]: That horse was, uh, it said, get off.

07:24.856 --> 07:29.263
[SPEAKER_00]: But folks, that day comes at horses going to say, uh, I mean, I've been waiting for you.

07:29.664 --> 07:30.164
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's go.

07:30.525 --> 07:33.890
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's get to kick it and folks, I'm not going to have to kick on that horse.

07:34.231 --> 07:38.217
[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to be riding and you're going to be beautiful every single one of us.

07:38.237 --> 07:40.701
[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to be following the Lord Jesus coming down.

07:41.242 --> 07:43.926
[SPEAKER_00]: Those clouds and we roll back the trumpets going to sound.

07:44.327 --> 07:50.577
[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to be the feast of in gathering and we gather up all those who are waiting.

07:51.181 --> 07:53.047
[SPEAKER_00]: He is going to gather him up and folks.

07:53.489 --> 07:54.432
[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to be beautiful.

07:54.933 --> 07:55.917
[SPEAKER_00]: It's harvest time.

07:55.957 --> 07:56.860
[SPEAKER_00]: The end of the book.

07:56.880 --> 07:57.803
[SPEAKER_00]: Rush Hashanah.

07:57.883 --> 07:58.826
[SPEAKER_00]: Feast of trumpets.

07:58.887 --> 08:00.472
[SPEAKER_00]: And I got another scripture for you.

08:00.933 --> 08:01.977
[SPEAKER_00]: Genesis 822.

08:02.860 --> 08:03.642
[SPEAKER_00]: Genesis 822.

08:03.682 --> 08:04.465
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a good.

08:04.681 --> 08:14.357
[SPEAKER_00]: While the earth remains sea time and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, and day and night will not cease.

08:14.737 --> 08:15.518
[SPEAKER_00]: It will not cease.

08:16.019 --> 08:17.241
[SPEAKER_00]: The day is coming, I'll say it again.

08:17.301 --> 08:19.505
[SPEAKER_00]: Genesis 822, it will not cease.

08:19.785 --> 08:21.528
[SPEAKER_00]: Folks, God has not done.

08:21.568 --> 08:24.693
[SPEAKER_00]: I know sometimes we look around and it looks like things are so bad.

08:24.713 --> 08:25.795
[SPEAKER_00]: We talk about the news while ago.

08:26.296 --> 08:28.900
[SPEAKER_00]: Man, you turn on the news, it seems so bad.

08:29.200 --> 08:31.485
[SPEAKER_00]: There's no way good things are coming, folks.

08:32.406 --> 08:35.813
[SPEAKER_00]: I know we're looking through the eyeballs of human beings.

08:36.515 --> 08:50.483
[SPEAKER_00]: But the eyes of God still sees our seeds in the ground and they grow it up and it's going to be, oh, I know we look at the young, we look at the youth, we say, how could they even be grow, folks I'm telling you, they're looking to Jesus.

08:50.463 --> 08:53.508
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a lot of young people I see, wonderful young people right here today.

08:53.908 --> 08:56.532
[SPEAKER_00]: They're looking at Jesus and Jesus is going to help them grow.

08:57.033 --> 09:05.085
[SPEAKER_00]: And because it is not about the people right now, it is about the one who is there to bring up the harvest and that is Jesus Christ.

09:05.145 --> 09:05.706
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not you.

09:06.007 --> 09:07.269
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the Holy Spirit.

09:07.289 --> 09:16.162
[SPEAKER_00]: We got to keep praying that it be He who is the one who's planting the seeds through the preachers, not the preachers themselves because there are a lot of stupid preachers out there.

09:16.182 --> 09:17.905
[SPEAKER_00]: Hope you're not looking at me and thanking me.

09:17.885 --> 09:23.953
[SPEAKER_00]: But I hope that it be the Lord God and His Word that be the one that plans to see is the Holy Spirit.

09:24.814 --> 09:27.578
[SPEAKER_00]: Because there's a lot of ministers who try to change the word we see them.

09:27.698 --> 09:33.145
[SPEAKER_00]: You see in the mean no one who try to take away words, change meanings of words, change definitions of words.

09:33.525 --> 09:37.230
[SPEAKER_00]: Folks, I'm not talking about certain versions of the word.

09:37.811 --> 09:40.775
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not going to tell you how to read King James or you're not really reading the word.

09:40.855 --> 09:41.556
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not doing that.

09:41.976 --> 09:45.100
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not telling you you have to read in Ivey or you're not reading the word.

09:45.120 --> 09:46.322
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not going to do that to you.

09:46.302 --> 09:48.946
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not telling you that you had to read a certain version that I prefer.

09:49.066 --> 09:55.417
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not doing that too, but I'm talking about the Holy Word itself and the meaning behind it the Holy Spirit that is the one that gave it in the first place.

09:55.777 --> 09:58.121
[SPEAKER_00]: So, I'm talking about, but we need to do that today.

09:58.161 --> 10:02.247
[SPEAKER_00]: Make sure that the seed is put into the ground of those who hear it.

10:05.112 --> 10:05.953
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's look at the harvest.

10:06.374 --> 10:08.558
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's look at the types of harvest at the Bible talks about.

10:09.158 --> 10:11.382
[SPEAKER_00]: Harvest, there's different seasons.

10:12.172 --> 10:14.638
[SPEAKER_00]: And it talks about harvest the beginning season.

10:14.919 --> 10:17.185
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the planting, the sewing of the seeds.

10:17.786 --> 10:20.433
[SPEAKER_00]: So we have the month of Kislev.

10:20.954 --> 10:21.435
[SPEAKER_00]: Kislev.

10:22.318 --> 10:24.122
[SPEAKER_00]: Now that is the ninth month of Hebrew.

10:26.684 --> 10:28.407
[SPEAKER_00]: That's their ninth month in the Hebrew calendar.

10:29.088 --> 10:32.535
[SPEAKER_00]: That's where they start to plant and sow the grain.

10:32.555 --> 10:35.160
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, usually, now, let me explain something to you.

10:35.640 --> 10:42.052
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember when I was first talking about this, and I was telling someone about how the ninth month and people, they were, wait a minute, it's not the first month.

10:42.112 --> 10:42.714
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I would be.

10:43.355 --> 10:45.098
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't plant in the first month.

10:45.178 --> 10:47.342
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't go plant in January, usually.

10:47.322 --> 10:49.405
[SPEAKER_00]: it would be in spring for us, right?

10:49.906 --> 10:56.735
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, believe it or not, they start to slow to so implant grain in their knife month, the Hebrew calendar.

10:56.815 --> 11:02.764
[SPEAKER_00]: And you know what month that is, believe it or not, his live is usually November and December for us.

11:03.565 --> 11:06.669
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's not, they're starting to plant right now, plant the seed.

11:07.030 --> 11:08.172
[SPEAKER_00]: Now I thought that was kind of cool.

11:09.313 --> 11:10.815
[SPEAKER_00]: I wish I could tell you that I planned that.

11:11.076 --> 11:12.338
[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't the work I did.

11:12.978 --> 11:16.924
[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't plan that.

11:17.157 --> 11:22.768
[SPEAKER_00]: But the Lord kept having me put it off to another time and now here it is, but it's like God planned it, but Philips you're didn't.

11:22.788 --> 11:23.509
[SPEAKER_00]: I could tell you that much.

11:23.570 --> 11:24.592
[SPEAKER_00]: Pastor Philips you're didn't.

11:24.932 --> 11:28.860
[SPEAKER_00]: So right now is Kizlev, because our calendars different there's obviously.

11:29.461 --> 11:31.205
[SPEAKER_00]: So what do they do in Harvest?

11:31.225 --> 11:31.926
[SPEAKER_00]: Well,

11:32.530 --> 11:36.175
[SPEAKER_00]: The other harvest besides kids' love is the first fruit.

11:36.195 --> 11:36.936
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the next one.

11:37.216 --> 11:38.017
[SPEAKER_00]: When is that?

11:38.177 --> 11:40.601
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, there's the month of Nissan.

11:41.021 --> 11:45.087
[SPEAKER_00]: Nissan, not Nissan, which, so you drive around, Nissan.

11:45.587 --> 11:48.471
[SPEAKER_00]: Nissan is March, so we're the first crops come.

11:49.212 --> 11:52.436
[SPEAKER_00]: And the first crops are, believe we're not, Flax and Barley.

11:52.576 --> 11:59.145
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, if anyone here has ever played a game night, one of the nice that we play oftentimes is, what's it called?

11:59.125 --> 12:01.728
[SPEAKER_00]: pit, and in pit, I could remember name it.

12:01.748 --> 12:21.775
[SPEAKER_00]: We have a bell being, and we play pit, and there's different kinds of cards we have, and it's as if you're being part of the bull pit, and if they're trying to put money down on what is going to make the most money, and pit talks about

12:21.755 --> 12:25.040
[SPEAKER_00]: And we usually try to get our money on because it makes the most money.

12:25.841 --> 12:31.729
[SPEAKER_00]: But what happens is with this is you see the different types of things that make most money.

12:31.809 --> 12:34.714
[SPEAKER_00]: So the first cross we have is Flax and Barley.

12:35.495 --> 12:39.320
[SPEAKER_00]: And this is coinciding with the festival of the Passover.

12:39.560 --> 12:41.383
[SPEAKER_00]: That's where Flax and Barley comes in.

12:41.363 --> 12:48.215
[SPEAKER_00]: Then there's a month of savann and savann is May and it may come as a crops of the wheat harvest.

12:48.415 --> 12:49.797
[SPEAKER_00]: So there's different harvest with that.

12:50.198 --> 12:57.290
[SPEAKER_00]: It's reflecting on the festival, a shall-hood, a shall-hood, but how does the wheat coincide with that?

12:57.411 --> 12:58.292
[SPEAKER_00]: Well,

12:58.272 --> 13:04.364
[SPEAKER_00]: Chavout is the holiday, the festival in which they had the two lows is the offering.

13:04.404 --> 13:07.971
[SPEAKER_00]: Remember we talked about that a couple of weeks ago, the two lows harvest.

13:07.991 --> 13:09.715
[SPEAKER_00]: And then there's a simmer months.

13:09.735 --> 13:12.500
[SPEAKER_00]: The simmer months of tamoos and alluel.

13:13.021 --> 13:14.144
[SPEAKER_00]: Tamoos and alluel.

13:14.865 --> 13:17.310
[SPEAKER_00]: And that is the...

13:18.033 --> 13:19.454
[SPEAKER_00]: Let me see if we're right here.

13:19.755 --> 13:27.141
[SPEAKER_00]: That is the harvest and gathering of the summer crops, some fruits, that's about now, the harvest crops, okay?

13:27.642 --> 13:31.966
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what they have, or excuse me, the, yeah, the summer crops come in the fruits and all.

13:32.426 --> 13:40.393
[SPEAKER_00]: And then we have the harvest where the cycle ends, that's now, that's now the month of tissue, September, okay, so I'm getting there.

13:40.593 --> 13:41.594
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm sorry, I'm a little ahead of myself.

13:42.055 --> 13:45.778
[SPEAKER_00]: So September is the time to take stock, inter-spective.

13:45.758 --> 13:50.483
[SPEAKER_00]: the resolutions, and planning, and coming of agricultural here.

13:51.384 --> 14:03.116
[SPEAKER_00]: This reflection, in the festival of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, where one balances accounts not with material possessions, but with spiritual status.

14:03.457 --> 14:12.006
[SPEAKER_00]: So when this time comes, when people are looking all the things that they've done throughout the year, they start looking not at what they have on the outside, but what's on the inside, how they grown.

14:12.746 --> 14:14.348
[SPEAKER_00]: So let's take a look now.

14:14.986 --> 14:17.449
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's take a look now at Exodus 23, 16.

14:17.669 --> 14:19.932
[SPEAKER_00]: Exodus 23, 16.

14:21.073 --> 14:30.624
[SPEAKER_00]: And it says, you shall observe the Feast of Harvest, the first fruits of your laborers, which you have sewn in the field.

14:31.726 --> 14:41.517
[SPEAKER_00]: You shall observe the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year when you have gathered the fruit of your laborers from the field.

14:41.918 --> 14:44.022
[SPEAKER_00]: And God talks about this even more than there's than that.

14:44.202 --> 14:49.711
[SPEAKER_00]: And Proverbs chapter 3, verse 9 and 10, Proverbs 3, 9 and 10.

14:49.731 --> 14:53.277
[SPEAKER_00]: It says, honor the Lord your God with your substance.

14:54.118 --> 15:05.918
[SPEAKER_00]: And with the first fruits of all your increase, so your barns will be filled with plenty and your presses will burst out with new wine.

15:07.467 --> 15:10.272
[SPEAKER_00]: be overflowing when you give it to God first.

15:10.493 --> 15:15.682
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, a lot of times people will look at what they have on the outside, not what's on the inside, but that's all what it's telling us to do.

15:16.123 --> 15:18.788
[SPEAKER_00]: It's saying that we should look what's on the inside first, then on the outside.

15:20.451 --> 15:22.816
[SPEAKER_00]: God wants us to look at spiritual growth.

15:24.218 --> 15:27.805
[SPEAKER_00]: Have you ever looked at how much money is coming in?

15:28.898 --> 15:30.600
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, we've taught about taxes all of though.

15:30.920 --> 15:34.143
[SPEAKER_00]: You have to pay your personal taxes to taxes and how much you owe.

15:34.183 --> 15:38.006
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, I know taxes come back around in March, but we're taught about a different taxes.

15:38.527 --> 15:42.350
[SPEAKER_00]: But what you own, what your property taxes right now.

15:43.451 --> 15:47.215
[SPEAKER_00]: And you start to look at how much you earned throughout the year, and things like that.

15:47.695 --> 15:49.297
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's not fun.

15:50.538 --> 15:54.541
[SPEAKER_00]: And a lot of times you say, I made that amount to talk about come out in March, you know, when all that comes around.

15:54.782 --> 15:56.984
[SPEAKER_00]: You say, I made that much, really?

15:57.424 --> 15:58.585
[SPEAKER_00]: Where'd it all go?

15:58.818 --> 16:00.742
[SPEAKER_00]: And then you go back to your property taxes.

16:00.922 --> 16:01.844
[SPEAKER_00]: That's where a lot of it went.

16:01.885 --> 16:03.769
[SPEAKER_00]: And all these things.

16:04.390 --> 16:14.852
[SPEAKER_00]: But one of the good introspects, introspects, you can say introspect is that this is that when you look at it, the introspection and the resolutions and the planning of all those things,

16:16.064 --> 16:20.149
[SPEAKER_00]: You can start replanting things sometimes of what you did and how you did it.

16:20.350 --> 16:23.293
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe I don't want to say wasting, but that happens to, I know.

16:24.174 --> 16:29.261
[SPEAKER_00]: And when that happens of how you can do things better than next year, this happens to us as Christians.

16:30.302 --> 16:32.846
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm known people who say, I don't have time for God.

16:32.866 --> 16:34.928
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll talk about that next week.

16:34.948 --> 16:37.291
[SPEAKER_00]: But people will say, I don't have time to go church.

16:37.732 --> 16:39.134
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't have time to read the word folks.

16:39.174 --> 16:40.856
[SPEAKER_00]: They got the same 24 hours you have.

16:41.837 --> 16:42.358
[SPEAKER_00]: Now,

16:42.727 --> 16:50.160
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't want to go too deep in it because that'll be next week, but the thing is is it's not the time you have it's what you do with that time.

16:50.941 --> 16:59.515
[SPEAKER_00]: We all have it, now it's easy for those who are retired, I guess, but the thing is it's just like with the other people, you can waste that time.

17:00.297 --> 17:06.507
[SPEAKER_00]: You can waste that time with all the same with your harvest, the same with your fruits, the same with your seed, you can waste it.

17:07.313 --> 17:11.061
[SPEAKER_00]: You can, you can let it set out and be eaten by rodents.

17:12.003 --> 17:13.647
[SPEAKER_00]: We all do it, if we're not careful.

17:14.749 --> 17:17.134
[SPEAKER_00]: But let's now look at the Christian harvest.

17:17.495 --> 17:20.883
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's look at the Christian harvest.

17:20.903 --> 17:22.947
[SPEAKER_00]: The Christian harvest is more than once a year too.

17:23.849 --> 17:25.693
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, while I was young,

17:26.585 --> 17:28.148
[SPEAKER_00]: And I would hear them talk about the harvest.

17:28.208 --> 17:37.664
[SPEAKER_00]: I always thought about fall time, because that's what we think of is how people plant the seed, and they bring it up, but folks, there's more than just one harvest.

17:38.245 --> 17:44.135
[SPEAKER_00]: It happens three times a year, they have a different harvest in Israel, but folks that happens also in the different seasons we talk about.

17:44.676 --> 17:50.466
[SPEAKER_00]: For the planters here in America, there's corn season, there's pumpkin season,

17:50.446 --> 17:55.413
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, you hear about, there's Apple season, there's orange season, it's best times out.

17:55.874 --> 17:59.679
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a little harder for us to realize now, it's because we have a supermarket.

18:00.460 --> 18:01.883
[SPEAKER_00]: Once upon a time, you didn't have that.

18:02.383 --> 18:04.546
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, you had grocery stores to go to.

18:04.566 --> 18:11.256
[SPEAKER_00]: You had markets to go to, but if you didn't get your oranges in a summertime, you didn't get oranges.

18:11.236 --> 18:14.540
[SPEAKER_00]: If you didn't get apples in the fall, you didn't get apples.

18:14.940 --> 18:21.747
[SPEAKER_00]: If you didn't get the persimmons in the fall, you didn't get the persimmons.

18:22.368 --> 18:26.312
[SPEAKER_00]: If you didn't get the green beans when they were in stock, you didn't get it.

18:26.633 --> 18:27.834
[SPEAKER_00]: Now that is what they try to do.

18:28.134 --> 18:30.277
[SPEAKER_00]: They try to keep them in a greenhouse.

18:30.297 --> 18:33.280
[SPEAKER_00]: They try to keep them in season all the time.

18:33.340 --> 18:35.202
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, some of that is good.

18:35.182 --> 18:35.923
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's good.

18:36.284 --> 18:37.185
[SPEAKER_00]: They try to can them.

18:37.205 --> 18:39.749
[SPEAKER_00]: They try to keep them preserved for you.

18:40.570 --> 18:41.492
[SPEAKER_00]: Some of that's not so good.

18:41.612 --> 18:42.834
[SPEAKER_00]: There's never going to taste fresh.

18:42.854 --> 18:43.154
[SPEAKER_00]: Do they?

18:43.355 --> 18:44.196
[SPEAKER_00]: They never taste right.

18:44.457 --> 18:46.720
[SPEAKER_00]: Have you ever had an orange that's out of season?

18:47.682 --> 18:50.466
[SPEAKER_00]: And yet it's just something that's not right about it.

18:50.847 --> 18:53.370
[SPEAKER_00]: There's been made in a greenhouse or have this.

18:53.451 --> 18:55.654
[SPEAKER_00]: It's been sprayed down with stuff.

18:55.634 --> 19:01.984
[SPEAKER_00]: And it almost looks plastic, but the moment you see it, it almost looks like it should say, Mattel on it, you know?

19:02.324 --> 19:06.991
[SPEAKER_00]: It looks like it should say Hasbro or, and by the way, I'm name and toy names, in case you don't know.

19:07.913 --> 19:09.475
[SPEAKER_00]: But it doesn't look right.

19:10.477 --> 19:12.600
[SPEAKER_00]: I had some apples, just not that long ago.

19:12.800 --> 19:14.683
[SPEAKER_00]: I think I mentioned this to you, not long ago.

19:14.703 --> 19:18.269
[SPEAKER_00]: But I had some apples, and they looked fake.

19:18.850 --> 19:20.813
[SPEAKER_00]: But I bought them for the apples season.

19:21.293 --> 19:23.076
[SPEAKER_00]: And we're about to have our apple fest.

19:23.562 --> 19:25.304
[SPEAKER_00]: And here's a problem with that.

19:25.965 --> 19:29.871
[SPEAKER_00]: They stay right a lot longer than they should have.

19:29.891 --> 19:34.257
[SPEAKER_00]: And I put them into a little container and I forgot about them.

19:34.277 --> 19:37.842
[SPEAKER_00]: So a week or so ago, I went to see what was in that container.

19:38.804 --> 19:43.210
[SPEAKER_00]: And these apples, I went to pick them up and they went to mush, right in my hand.

19:44.031 --> 19:46.495
[SPEAKER_00]: Fruit flies and everything else we're saying and I'll try to tell you.

19:47.096 --> 19:49.519
[SPEAKER_00]: But the thing is they went to mush, right in my hand.

19:50.782 --> 19:55.689
[SPEAKER_00]: just because it looks like they're right at one point doesn't mean they still are and they're not the right season.

19:55.729 --> 20:04.562
[SPEAKER_00]: My point is it's a Christian many times we think that we'll be we were saved forever but it's a season to all we're always being a season to do the right thing.

20:04.582 --> 20:05.163
[SPEAKER_00]: That's not true.

20:05.904 --> 20:10.410
[SPEAKER_00]: So Christian Harvest is more than once a year too.

20:10.863 --> 20:14.347
[SPEAKER_00]: We need to know the season, the follow God, and what we should do.

20:14.387 --> 20:20.053
[SPEAKER_00]: So God, the Holy Spirit, Jesus, softens and loosens the soil for us.

20:20.773 --> 20:24.698
[SPEAKER_00]: Loosen the soil for others through us.

20:24.818 --> 20:26.740
[SPEAKER_00]: It removes the weeds and the rocks.

20:26.760 --> 20:28.241
[SPEAKER_00]: You see, that's the thing about planting.

20:28.862 --> 20:30.444
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't just go out to the land.

20:30.664 --> 20:31.725
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, there is some land.

20:31.765 --> 20:33.367
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if you ever study soil.

20:33.687 --> 20:35.009
[SPEAKER_00]: And look at the types of dirt there is.

20:35.029 --> 20:36.510
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a whole lot of types of dirt.

20:36.911 --> 20:39.233
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember there's a kid we would do traveling.

20:39.213 --> 20:44.481
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm going to show that brown, you know, the brown dirt, we'd have in our backyard or we'd see it school.

20:45.062 --> 20:48.668
[SPEAKER_00]: And then you go to other states and you see this really red looking dirt.

20:48.688 --> 20:54.698
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, some of it was clay, but some would be like a really reddish looking dirt, not all that different than what you see here.

20:55.159 --> 20:57.703
[SPEAKER_00]: But just a little, almost like a reddish brown.

20:58.184 --> 21:01.990
[SPEAKER_00]: And then you go to other, and it's really black, a black dirt.

21:02.591 --> 21:05.355
[SPEAKER_00]: And I remember taking what on earth has happened.

21:05.335 --> 21:08.819
[SPEAKER_00]: but did not find out that black dirt was really good for certain things to grow.

21:09.420 --> 21:12.584
[SPEAKER_00]: It was a really good dirt for certain types of planting.

21:13.025 --> 21:22.337
[SPEAKER_00]: But then you'd find out that some people would buy that dirt to grow certain types of plants and different types of bushes and things too.

21:23.038 --> 21:24.680
[SPEAKER_00]: It depends on what you want to grow.

21:25.100 --> 21:28.144
[SPEAKER_00]: So God has to loosen the soil for us Christians.

21:28.705 --> 21:34.853
[SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes God's kind of loosen the soil for other people in the world that God wants to speak to through

21:35.693 --> 21:45.644
[SPEAKER_00]: Many of the times, if you're spoken to someone about the Lord, you're spoken to people about the Lord, and it seems like God is loosening them, that the God, through them, we might say, well, how do you know that?

21:46.045 --> 21:51.691
[SPEAKER_00]: How you not know that God is loosening the soil at that time, getting it prepared for seed to go in.

21:51.711 --> 21:58.899
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not happening now, but it's loosening the soil so that when they're time for the seed to go into them, it will be able to grow.

21:59.580 --> 22:01.021
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just loosening, it's using you.

22:01.542 --> 22:04.485
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, here's the problem, so very often,

22:04.465 --> 22:08.251
[SPEAKER_00]: So very often, people think that they're the planter and they're not.

22:08.892 --> 22:11.776
[SPEAKER_00]: They're the one that God is using to do the planting through.

22:12.658 --> 22:15.462
[SPEAKER_00]: So often they say, I'm going to tell them what they need to hear.

22:15.502 --> 22:17.805
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to tell them, I'm going to do the one.

22:17.926 --> 22:19.007
[SPEAKER_00]: No, no, no, no, no.

22:19.528 --> 22:21.411
[SPEAKER_00]: You're not the planter.

22:21.391 --> 22:29.107
[SPEAKER_00]: You're simply the tool that God is using, not see a farmer has all these tools that they use to plant the seed through.

22:29.828 --> 22:35.380
[SPEAKER_00]: But that doesn't mean that the tool gets several goals, I think I'm gonna get up and go plant those seeds.

22:35.480 --> 22:39.128
[SPEAKER_00]: No, the farmer, which is God, does a planting through those tools.

22:39.168 --> 22:41.452
[SPEAKER_00]: You're simply the tool that God uses.

22:42.154 --> 22:42.775
[SPEAKER_00]: So,

22:43.717 --> 22:44.898
[SPEAKER_00]: Things happen, here we go.

22:44.938 --> 22:46.981
[SPEAKER_00]: They plant this seed on fertile ground.

22:47.481 --> 22:51.746
[SPEAKER_00]: If the seed is planted on unfurl ground, it will not grow.

22:51.806 --> 22:54.809
[SPEAKER_00]: Now there's different types of ground as we mentioned while ago.

22:54.849 --> 22:57.452
[SPEAKER_00]: Have you ever seen ground that so hard as a rock?

22:57.972 --> 23:00.916
[SPEAKER_00]: It would matter how much seed you try to put into it in the first place.

23:01.797 --> 23:03.859
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe you've had that kind of ground before.

23:03.879 --> 23:06.682
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe you've been that kind of ground before, Christian.

23:07.643 --> 23:08.864
[SPEAKER_00]: Has God ever tried to tell you something?

23:08.884 --> 23:11.547
[SPEAKER_00]: You're like, I'm not gonna let some boom and it can't get in.

23:12.488 --> 23:16.815
[SPEAKER_00]: You've been so hardheaded, so young and foolish.

23:18.297 --> 23:22.263
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, I said, young and foolish, and I'm not just talking in your age.

23:22.704 --> 23:24.727
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm talking in your spiritual life.

23:25.788 --> 23:28.212
[SPEAKER_00]: I know what I'm doing, and we just don't wanna listen.

23:28.673 --> 23:34.902
[SPEAKER_00]: Or have about, we've had to go through hard times because that's sometimes it takes for us to be soft.

23:35.067 --> 23:41.936
[SPEAKER_00]: It has to have, if you've ever seen those tools as soft from the ground, all those blades that go in, you see if it softens it up.

23:42.517 --> 23:46.442
[SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes that's what it takes the hard times, it's softened the ground to get through to us.

23:47.683 --> 23:49.546
[SPEAKER_00]: Why did God let that happen, we might say?

23:50.507 --> 23:54.612
[SPEAKER_00]: Because we chose not to let it happen any other way.

23:56.448 --> 24:01.136
[SPEAKER_00]: So because God wanted bad things to happen, sometimes we chose not to let it happen in the other way.

24:01.517 --> 24:03.340
[SPEAKER_00]: He tried to reach us other ways, and we would do it.

24:03.360 --> 24:06.265
[SPEAKER_00]: There's other people who get soften easily.

24:06.325 --> 24:11.353
[SPEAKER_00]: God calls out, we answer, there's others, I don't know, I just don't know if I can believe that.

24:11.714 --> 24:16.482
[SPEAKER_00]: And God, okay, I'll let it be your way, David, and then David chose the wrong way.

24:17.542 --> 24:20.186
[SPEAKER_00]: or whoever else is how it happens sometimes.

24:20.206 --> 24:23.311
[SPEAKER_00]: So the seed has to be planted on fertile ground.

24:23.431 --> 24:26.596
[SPEAKER_00]: And then water, water has to help feed.

24:27.176 --> 24:27.477
[SPEAKER_00]: Why?

24:28.038 --> 24:29.961
[SPEAKER_00]: Because that ground also has to be cultivated.

24:30.281 --> 24:34.027
[SPEAKER_00]: Cultivated, fed, cultivated.

24:34.508 --> 24:37.833
[SPEAKER_00]: It has to also be, you can be say softened.

24:38.273 --> 24:40.657
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe even massage, if you wanna call it that.

24:40.717 --> 24:42.840
[SPEAKER_00]: Cultivated, as a Christian,

24:43.394 --> 24:46.299
[SPEAKER_00]: One thing we don't want to do is be water log.

24:46.319 --> 24:49.605
[SPEAKER_00]: You know when I was real little, I remember things I enjoyed about the spring.

24:50.126 --> 25:00.424
[SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes we have these wonderful Sunday school, I guess you can call them homework, but these little wonderful things we we do sometimes they help us to make a plan.

25:00.910 --> 25:07.237
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, they would give us a little, remember if they give you a styrofoam thumps, and they give you dirt, and they give you a seed, and they say, I remember you got a feed it.

25:07.638 --> 25:15.627
[SPEAKER_00]: But I had it good intentions, so sometimes I feed it, and I feed it to get a feed to get a feed to get feed to get, probably what that is, and suddenly it's drowned.

25:15.647 --> 25:17.169
[SPEAKER_00]: It's too much water, too much feeding.

25:18.010 --> 25:19.091
[SPEAKER_00]: I've seen that happen sometimes.

25:19.351 --> 25:28.041
[SPEAKER_00]: I've seen people who plant seeds in their backyard, but unfortunately, that summer floods, and it ruins it, why it's waterlogged.

25:28.061 --> 25:29.803
[SPEAKER_00]: This is what I'm trying to tell you what to go.

25:30.408 --> 25:34.343
[SPEAKER_00]: some Christians waterlogg listeners.

25:34.576 --> 25:44.065
[SPEAKER_00]: You're a medic Christian who does nothing but talk about the Lord, and they don't do it like they're talking about someone who needs to hear just a little bit, there's a little bit of a time, a little bit of feeding, what they do?

25:44.826 --> 25:47.589
[SPEAKER_00]: You're going to hell, they're waterlogging in someone.

25:47.629 --> 25:49.951
[SPEAKER_00]: You're not supposed to be the one doing the feeding.

25:50.011 --> 25:52.614
[SPEAKER_00]: It's supposed to be the Lord, God, the Holy Spirit.

25:53.134 --> 25:54.876
[SPEAKER_00]: And if you're doing it, you're going to waterlog them.

25:55.216 --> 25:57.038
[SPEAKER_00]: They may not be ready to hear that.

25:57.138 --> 26:04.245
[SPEAKER_00]: You got to make sure it's Christ who's doing the feeding, not you.

26:04.900 --> 26:05.521
[SPEAKER_00]: And I hope you do.

26:06.422 --> 26:10.668
[SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes, as people who have prideful intentions, talk about how smart they are, how wonderful they are.

26:11.009 --> 26:11.870
[SPEAKER_00]: We're not to be the feeder.

26:12.010 --> 26:12.611
[SPEAKER_00]: Jesus is.

26:13.172 --> 26:14.314
[SPEAKER_00]: We're not to waterlog them.

26:14.334 --> 26:16.597
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll let Jesus feed others through you.

26:18.240 --> 26:19.481
[SPEAKER_00]: Galatians chapter six.

26:20.924 --> 26:24.108
[SPEAKER_00]: Galatians chapter six versus six through 10.

26:25.711 --> 26:26.312
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, it's not.

26:26.392 --> 26:32.781
[SPEAKER_00]: Let him who is taught in the word, share all those things with him who teaches.

26:33.740 --> 26:35.143
[SPEAKER_00]: but not deceived.

26:35.564 --> 26:42.337
[SPEAKER_00]: God is not mocked for whatever a man's so's that he will, he also reap.

26:42.898 --> 26:54.060
[SPEAKER_00]: For the one who so's and his own flesh will come from the flesh, the flesh reap corruption, but the one who so's to the spirit,

26:54.800 --> 26:58.084
[SPEAKER_00]: will from the Spirit-REAP eternal life.

26:58.965 --> 27:07.796
[SPEAKER_00]: And let us not grow weary and doing good for and do season, we shall reap if we do not give up.

27:08.557 --> 27:18.270
[SPEAKER_00]: Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who are of the household of faith.

27:19.211 --> 27:23.997
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's not turn to Matthew.

27:27.250 --> 27:28.875
[SPEAKER_00]: Matthew chapter 13 verse one.

27:28.995 --> 27:30.439
[SPEAKER_00]: Now we're going to read quite a bit here.

27:30.459 --> 27:36.797
[SPEAKER_00]: It's about parables here, 130, but then we're going to skip a little, but because there's a lot of parables here about planting.

27:39.143 --> 27:42.272
[SPEAKER_00]: More or less, it says in chapter 13 verse one.

27:42.927 --> 27:54.837
[SPEAKER_00]: That same day, Jesus went out of the house and sat beside the sea, great crowds assembled around him so that he went into a boat and sat there and the whole assembly stood on the shore.

27:55.258 --> 27:58.827
[SPEAKER_00]: Then he told them many things imperable, saying, listen.

27:59.110 --> 28:13.491
[SPEAKER_00]: a sewer went out to sew while he sewed some seeds fell beside the path and the birds came and devoured them, but the other seeds fell on the rocky ground where they did not have much soil.

28:13.808 --> 28:18.513
[SPEAKER_00]: And immediately, they sprang up because they did not have deep soil.

28:18.573 --> 28:21.876
[SPEAKER_00]: Now we spoke about this not too long ago, but let's go on in anyway.

28:21.896 --> 28:28.462
[SPEAKER_00]: But when the sun rose, they were scorched and because they did not take root, they withered away.

28:28.922 --> 28:33.727
[SPEAKER_00]: Some seeds fell among the thorns and the thorns grew up and choked them.

28:34.168 --> 28:43.056
[SPEAKER_00]: But other seeds fell into the ground into the good ground and produced grain,

28:43.036 --> 28:45.688
[SPEAKER_00]: Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.

28:48.841 --> 28:53.228
[SPEAKER_00]: The disciples came and said to him, why do you speak to them in parables?

28:53.709 --> 28:57.796
[SPEAKER_00]: He said to them, it is given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven.

28:58.417 --> 29:07.471
[SPEAKER_00]: But to them, it is not given for to him who has will be more given and he will have abundance.

29:07.952 --> 29:15.304
[SPEAKER_00]: But from him who has not even what he has will be taken away, therefore I speak to them in parables because they look

29:15.284 --> 29:20.602
[SPEAKER_00]: do not see, and they listen, but do not hear, neither do they understand.

29:20.622 --> 29:23.050
[SPEAKER_00]: In them,

29:23.654 --> 29:32.804
[SPEAKER_00]: is fulfill the prophecy of Isaiah, which says, by hearing you will hear and shun out understand and sing, you will see and shun out perceive.

29:32.865 --> 29:36.469
[SPEAKER_00]: For this people's heart has grown dull.

29:36.509 --> 29:49.864
[SPEAKER_00]: Their ears have become hard of hearing, and they have closed their eyes, unless they should see with their eyes, and hear it through ears, and understand with the hearts, and turn, and should heal them.

29:49.844 --> 29:54.993
[SPEAKER_00]: But blessed are your eyes for they see and your ears for they hear.

29:55.534 --> 30:09.118
[SPEAKER_00]: For truly I say to you that many prophets and righteous men have desire to see those things, which you see and have not seen them and to hear those things, which you hear and have not heard them.

30:09.098 --> 30:14.646
[SPEAKER_00]: He then says this about the soar, he talks about the parable of the soar and explains the meaning thereof.

30:15.166 --> 30:18.511
[SPEAKER_00]: He says in verse 18, therefore, listen to the parable of the soar.

30:19.112 --> 30:30.988
[SPEAKER_00]: When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand that the evil one comes a snatches away that what was so in the heart, this is the one who received seed beside the path.

30:31.609 --> 30:37.958
[SPEAKER_00]: But he who received the seed on rock ground is the one who hears the word and immediately receives the word joy.

30:37.938 --> 30:49.237
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he has no root in himself, but in doers for a while, for when tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, eventually he falls away.

30:49.297 --> 30:54.445
[SPEAKER_00]: He also who receives seed among the thorns is he who hears the word,

30:54.425 --> 31:09.666
[SPEAKER_00]: But the cares of this world and that it's seefulness of riches, chope, the word, and he becomes unfruitful, but he who receive the seed on the good ground is see who hears the word and understands it.

31:09.646 --> 31:16.535
[SPEAKER_00]: who, indeed, bears fruit, some produce 160 or 30 times what was shown.

31:17.296 --> 31:18.777
[SPEAKER_00]: Some people will never understand.

31:19.538 --> 31:24.404
[SPEAKER_00]: Some people understand for just a little while, but then bad things happen, and they don't follow God anymore.

31:24.785 --> 31:31.333
[SPEAKER_00]: Then there are others who hear it, but because of all the hardships they never understand God, then there are those of you.

31:32.174 --> 31:38.805
[SPEAKER_00]: who receive the Word of God and you produce, you produce the Word, you produce it to others, you produce good works.

31:39.446 --> 31:43.513
[SPEAKER_00]: Is this to all the pins on how the ground that you are are receiving it?

31:43.633 --> 31:44.274
[SPEAKER_00]: It just depends.

31:44.915 --> 31:46.918
[SPEAKER_00]: It doesn't mean that not all people are saved.

31:46.958 --> 31:49.142
[SPEAKER_00]: It's mean some people are saved and they produce well.

31:49.563 --> 31:55.212
[SPEAKER_00]: Others are saved and do not, others are not saved because they do not take the Word and let it plant within them.

31:55.192 --> 32:05.852
[SPEAKER_00]: Then there's a pair of the weeds, he says this in verse 24, he told them another pair of saying the kingdom of heaven is like a man who's so good seed in his field.

32:06.152 --> 32:12.424
[SPEAKER_00]: But while men slept in his enemy came a sowed weeds among the wheat and went away.

32:12.404 --> 32:17.290
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, when the shoots had sprung up and produced fruit, the weeds also appeared.

32:18.031 --> 32:25.880
[SPEAKER_00]: So the servants of the landowner came and said to him, Sir, did you not so good seed in your field?

32:26.581 --> 32:28.903
[SPEAKER_00]: Then where did this weeds come from?

32:28.943 --> 32:31.226
[SPEAKER_00]: He said to them, the enemy did this.

32:31.787 --> 32:36.252
[SPEAKER_00]: Their servants said to him, will you then have us go and gather them up?

32:36.232 --> 32:49.207
[SPEAKER_00]: But he said, but he said, not less while you gather up the weeds, you pull up also wheat with them, let both grow together until the harvest.

32:49.688 --> 33:01.422
[SPEAKER_00]: And in time of the harvest, I will say to the reapers, gather up the weeds first and bind them in the bundles and burn them up the gather up the wheat into my barn.

33:02.743 --> 33:04.365
[SPEAKER_00]: Folks, the time will come.

33:05.172 --> 33:05.933
[SPEAKER_00]: the time will come.

33:06.253 --> 33:13.804
[SPEAKER_00]: When God will separate the wheat from the weeds, you need to ask yourself today, am I a wheat and remind weeds?

33:14.545 --> 33:15.226
[SPEAKER_00]: Which one are you?

33:15.246 --> 33:16.848
[SPEAKER_00]: Now I'm going to go to verse 36 here.

33:17.329 --> 33:19.432
[SPEAKER_00]: Verse 36, because he talks about it.

33:19.452 --> 33:20.273
[SPEAKER_00]: Verse 36, 343.

33:20.713 --> 33:30.046
[SPEAKER_00]: Then Jesus sent the crowds away and went to the house and his disciples came with him saying, explain to us the parable, the weeds of the field.

33:30.487 --> 33:34.993
[SPEAKER_00]: He answered,

33:34.973 --> 33:35.594
[SPEAKER_00]: himself.

33:36.015 --> 33:43.710
[SPEAKER_00]: The field is the world, but the good seed are the sons of the kingdom, but the weeds are the sons of the evil one.

33:44.331 --> 33:46.575
[SPEAKER_00]: The enemy who sow them is the devil.

33:47.337 --> 33:51.745
[SPEAKER_00]: The harvest is the end of the world and the reapers are the angels.

33:51.926 --> 33:53.168
[SPEAKER_00]: Therefore,

33:53.148 --> 34:00.859
[SPEAKER_00]: As the weeds are gathered and burned in the fire, so it shall be that the end of the world, the Son of Man shall send out His angels.

34:01.680 --> 34:12.395
[SPEAKER_00]: They shall gather out of His kingdom all things that offend and those who do evil and will throw them into a fiery furnace.

34:12.575 --> 34:16.320
[SPEAKER_00]: There will be whaling and

34:16.300 --> 34:26.477
[SPEAKER_00]: then their rights this will shine forth as a son in the kingdom of their father who ever has ears to hear, let them hear.

34:28.020 --> 34:30.384
[SPEAKER_00]: Folks, the time is coming.

34:30.404 --> 34:31.266
[SPEAKER_00]: The time is coming.

34:33.389 --> 34:36.034
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know when, I don't know when it will be.

34:36.094 --> 34:39.760
[SPEAKER_00]: The people are going to be gathered together.

34:40.145 --> 34:42.928
[SPEAKER_00]: Some of we put on this side, there'll be the weeds.

34:44.470 --> 34:48.315
[SPEAKER_00]: We take in the heaven, and there there'll be the weeds, and we take in the eternal hell.

34:49.316 --> 34:53.241
[SPEAKER_00]: There'll be the sheep, there'll be the goats, which one are you?

34:54.142 --> 34:54.743
[SPEAKER_00]: Which one are you?

34:56.325 --> 34:59.028
[SPEAKER_00]: Not because your works, but because the works have been done for you.

35:00.169 --> 35:00.790
[SPEAKER_00]: Remember that.

35:02.112 --> 35:04.735
[SPEAKER_00]: Second Corinthians, to after nine,

35:05.339 --> 35:08.663
[SPEAKER_00]: Second Corinthians chapter 9 verse 6 through 15 says this.

35:09.103 --> 35:15.892
[SPEAKER_00]: But this, I say, he, and this is Paul speaking, he who's so sparingly will also reap sparingly.

35:17.654 --> 35:21.258
[SPEAKER_00]: And he who's so's bountifully will also reap bountifully.

35:21.879 --> 35:27.145
[SPEAKER_00]: Let every man give accordingly to the purposes of his heart

35:28.238 --> 35:32.644
[SPEAKER_00]: not grudgingly or out of necessity, but God loves that what?

35:33.145 --> 35:36.790
[SPEAKER_00]: Cheerful giver, God loves a cheerful giver.

35:37.331 --> 35:46.804
[SPEAKER_00]: God is able to make all grace about towards you so that you, always having enough of everything, may abound to every good work as it is written.

35:46.784 --> 35:53.455
[SPEAKER_00]: He has dispersed a broad, he has given to the poor, his righteousness remains forever.

35:53.475 --> 36:06.598
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, he who supplies seed to the soul and supplies bread for your food will also multiply your seed zone and increase the fruits of your righteousness.

36:09.667 --> 36:20.304
[SPEAKER_00]: So you will be enriched in everything through all aboutfulness, which makes us give thanks to God for the administration of this service.

36:20.344 --> 36:27.195
[SPEAKER_00]: Now only supplies the need of the saints, but is abundant also through many things giving to God.

36:27.876 --> 36:35.168
[SPEAKER_00]: Meanwhile, through the performance of this ministry, the glorified God,

36:35.148 --> 36:43.305
[SPEAKER_00]: for the profession of your faith in the gospel of Christ and for your liberal sharing with them and with all others.

36:43.745 --> 36:50.239
[SPEAKER_00]: And in their prayer for you, they long for you because of your surpassing grace of God in you.

36:50.299 --> 36:54.928
[SPEAKER_00]: Thanks be to God for His indiscribable gift.

36:54.908 --> 36:56.171
[SPEAKER_00]: Praise the Lord God.

36:56.672 --> 37:00.099
[SPEAKER_00]: He gives us what we do not deserve, but he continues to give.

37:00.600 --> 37:12.445
[SPEAKER_00]: In fact, it says, in John 435, Jesus said, in John 435, do you not say there are yet four months and yet

37:12.425 --> 37:14.268
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's give me, and then comes the harvest.

37:14.769 --> 37:21.101
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields where they are already white for harvest.

37:21.121 --> 37:22.363
[SPEAKER_00]: Now folks, what's Jesus saying?

37:22.724 --> 37:25.889
[SPEAKER_00]: He's saying the last days are upon us, the last days are upon us.

37:26.290 --> 37:29.115
[SPEAKER_00]: Many people believe they have forever.

37:30.017 --> 37:31.339
[SPEAKER_00]: They believe they have forever.

37:32.181 --> 37:36.128
[SPEAKER_00]: And they don't have to worry about getting things prepared in life.

37:36.208 --> 37:36.829
[SPEAKER_00]: The Christian.

37:37.602 --> 37:43.111
[SPEAKER_00]: Even though Christians are gonna go to heaven, those who've asked Jesus Christ to save them, they're gonna go to heaven, we know that.

37:43.952 --> 37:46.075
[SPEAKER_00]: But you know what?

37:46.095 --> 37:50.602
[SPEAKER_00]: Too often people are acting as if they have forever.

37:51.784 --> 37:52.906
[SPEAKER_00]: The folks today's gonna come.

37:53.707 --> 37:56.151
[SPEAKER_00]: The white is already on the harvest.

37:56.191 --> 38:01.660
[SPEAKER_00]: The white heads of the wheat in all those other plants are already prepared and ready.

38:02.521 --> 38:03.863
[SPEAKER_00]: We're in the last days.

38:04.771 --> 38:11.578
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, Pastor Phil, I've been hearing that since I was five years old, you know, and guess what?

38:12.619 --> 38:15.122
[SPEAKER_00]: That's closer to today than it was then.

38:15.142 --> 38:18.966
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you realize the last two thousand years we've been in the last days?

38:20.247 --> 38:21.168
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, we have.

38:22.489 --> 38:31.639
[SPEAKER_00]: But folks, every day if you ever do watch it is, you'll see there was another step closer.

38:32.227 --> 38:38.354
[SPEAKER_00]: But because there's more and more in Israel going on, there's a lot of goofballs right now who are going against Israel.

38:39.195 --> 38:40.296
[SPEAKER_00]: And I don't understand that.

38:40.397 --> 38:43.220
[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm not saying Israel's always right and this is what they say and do.

38:44.081 --> 38:46.163
[SPEAKER_00]: They weren't always right in the Bible what they say and do.

38:46.804 --> 38:51.590
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll tell you this, they do more right than most people are against them, too.

38:52.351 --> 38:53.051
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll tell you that much.

38:57.477 --> 39:01.221
[SPEAKER_00]: But I for one, I go to the Word of God and I follow that.

39:01.775 --> 39:05.198
[SPEAKER_00]: Because even though Israel's not always right, America most certainly is not always right.

39:06.260 --> 39:07.421
[SPEAKER_00]: The Lord God always is.

39:09.323 --> 39:10.664
[SPEAKER_00]: Harvest time is upon us.

39:11.945 --> 39:12.946
[SPEAKER_00]: Harvest time is upon us.

39:13.026 --> 39:17.531
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not talking about Jewish harvest, even though it is technically the planting time for that.

39:19.113 --> 39:22.516
[SPEAKER_00]: But our spiritual life of harvest is always upon us at one point or another.

39:23.998 --> 39:25.739
[SPEAKER_00]: It is eternal harvest time.

39:26.941 --> 39:28.322
[SPEAKER_00]: It is eternal harvest time.

39:29.028 --> 39:38.018
[SPEAKER_00]: We need to be prepared, because eternal harvest time season, eternal harvest season, we need to be prepared always for eternal harvest season.

39:38.818 --> 39:44.444
[SPEAKER_00]: Because every single thing you do, every single thing you say, it's preparing you for eternal harvest season.

39:45.145 --> 39:51.212
[SPEAKER_00]: The way we treat people, I would love to tell you everything I've ever said and done is nice and wonderful.

39:51.292 --> 39:51.652
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not.

39:52.413 --> 39:53.434
[SPEAKER_00]: I made mistakes like you.

39:53.454 --> 39:55.056
[SPEAKER_00]: There was words I said it should not have been said.

39:55.076 --> 39:57.178
[SPEAKER_00]: There was accidents I've made, it shouldn't have been done.

39:58.154 --> 40:01.899
[SPEAKER_00]: But God forgives, and it's not what you've done, but what you will do.

40:02.679 --> 40:07.405
[SPEAKER_00]: Change how you behaved today, not what you've planted, but what can be planted now.

40:08.687 --> 40:09.808
[SPEAKER_00]: Some will say, well, it's too late for me.

40:09.828 --> 40:11.690
[SPEAKER_00]: No, it's not too late for you now.

40:12.611 --> 40:14.514
[SPEAKER_00]: Go out there, replant.

40:15.575 --> 40:17.357
[SPEAKER_00]: Be prepared as harvest time.

40:18.378 --> 40:19.079
[SPEAKER_00]: Get prepared.

40:20.761 --> 40:23.565
[SPEAKER_00]: Plug up what has been planted and start planting a new.

40:23.945 --> 40:26.288
[SPEAKER_00]: It can be done right now in your life.

40:26.842 --> 40:28.003
[SPEAKER_00]: can be done now.

40:28.023 --> 40:39.997
[SPEAKER_00]: It says in Psalm 126 verse 6, he who goes forth and weeks bearing precious seed to sow shall come home again with rejoicing, bringing his grain shoes with him.

40:44.122 --> 40:46.725
[SPEAKER_00]: And then in James chapter 5 verse 4 through 9.

40:47.606 --> 40:53.152
[SPEAKER_00]: James chapter 5 verse 4 through 9.

40:53.593 --> 40:55.735
[SPEAKER_00]: It says this,

40:56.947 --> 41:00.752
[SPEAKER_00]: from the laborers who harvested your fields are crying.

41:01.793 --> 41:08.401
[SPEAKER_00]: And the cries of those who harvested have entered into the ears of the Lord of hosts.

41:09.522 --> 41:14.789
[SPEAKER_00]: You have lived in pleasure on the earth and have been wayward.

41:15.269 --> 41:19.134
[SPEAKER_00]: You have nourished your hearts as in the day of slaughter.

41:19.735 --> 41:25.502
[SPEAKER_00]: You have condemned and killed the righteous man who does not resist you.

41:26.107 --> 41:30.411
[SPEAKER_00]: Therefore, be patient, brothers, until the coming of the Lord.

41:30.471 --> 41:36.596
[SPEAKER_00]: Notice how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the field.

41:37.377 --> 41:43.122
[SPEAKER_00]: And his patient with it until he perceives the early and late reign.

41:44.023 --> 41:50.148
[SPEAKER_00]: You also be patient, established your hearts for the coming of the Lord is drawing near.

41:51.069 --> 41:55.253
[SPEAKER_00]: Do not grumble against one another.

41:55.655 --> 41:59.039
[SPEAKER_00]: Do not grumble against one another, brothers.

41:59.660 --> 42:01.081
[SPEAKER_00]: Last, you be condemned.

42:01.802 --> 42:05.046
[SPEAKER_00]: Look, the judge is standing at the door.

42:05.827 --> 42:07.649
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, we're sitting here waiting.

42:08.610 --> 42:10.352
[SPEAKER_00]: Waiting for the day to come when we get to go home.

42:11.493 --> 42:12.995
[SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes we might do that too much.

42:13.636 --> 42:15.098
[SPEAKER_00]: Not enjoying what God has given us.

42:16.059 --> 42:19.823
[SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes we might look a fellow brothers resistance crisis grumble about it.

42:20.427 --> 42:25.674
[SPEAKER_00]: Why can't they be more like this or more like this or or, hey, more like me, the perfect Christian.

42:27.777 --> 42:30.741
[SPEAKER_00]: It's what, there's no such thing as the perfect Christian.

42:31.422 --> 42:35.748
[SPEAKER_00]: There's perfect Christ, as far as perfect Christian, nope.

42:35.768 --> 42:40.395
[SPEAKER_00]: No, not, no such thing.

42:40.415 --> 42:44.140
[SPEAKER_00]: But every day, the Christian can become more more like Christ, let's light me.

42:45.335 --> 42:48.759
[SPEAKER_00]: He must, what, increase I must decrease.

42:49.480 --> 42:51.323
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you John the Baptist.

42:51.343 --> 42:54.006
[SPEAKER_00]: He's right, that's right.

42:54.867 --> 42:58.091
[SPEAKER_00]: More of him, let's say me, that's what Paul said.

42:58.992 --> 43:00.634
[SPEAKER_00]: He's right, I'm gonna say it right.

43:01.595 --> 43:03.318
[SPEAKER_00]: We must be more like Jesus every day.

43:03.458 --> 43:07.082
[SPEAKER_00]: Jeremiah said in Jeremiah 820, the harvest is passed.

43:08.404 --> 43:14.852
[SPEAKER_00]: The summer is ended and we are not saved.

43:16.233 --> 43:27.072
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's a nightmare of people who are on their death bed, even today, who believe that they're good enough to give heaven.

43:29.796 --> 43:32.261
[SPEAKER_00]: And there might be some who don't know how to get there.

43:33.022 --> 43:38.391
[SPEAKER_00]: And they may be at their death bed, say the harvest is passing the summer is ended and I'm not saved.

43:38.431 --> 43:39.473
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know how to get there.

43:40.550 --> 43:52.429
[SPEAKER_00]: And it scares me that they're going to have some generic minister go in there because they have a lot of generic ministers in the hospitals in other places and I fear that minister is not going to go in there and tell them the truth.

43:53.590 --> 43:57.076
[SPEAKER_01]: I fear that they're going to cook a cutter their way and you don't want to be by that cook a cutter.

43:57.997 --> 44:04.768
[SPEAKER_01]: You're good, everybody goes down, you're good enough, I fear that.

44:06.098 --> 44:16.013
[SPEAKER_01]: I prayed the Holy Spirit cuts through all the bologna, cuts through the cookie cutter and the truth because the truth shall set them free.

44:17.636 --> 44:20.460
[SPEAKER_01]: I want that person so bad I could go to heaven.

44:20.480 --> 44:22.803
[SPEAKER_01]: I was a little boy, I thought my grandpa was in hell.

44:23.725 --> 44:25.768
[SPEAKER_01]: I went on a little boy with a teenager, but I thought he was in hell.

44:26.970 --> 44:33.760
[SPEAKER_00]: And then I found out, the days later, that he come to no Christ at that last second folks.

44:34.263 --> 44:35.825
[SPEAKER_00]: He may not have been able to plant much.

44:36.886 --> 44:41.090
[SPEAKER_00]: The point is that God planted him, has saved him.

44:41.130 --> 44:43.873
[SPEAKER_00]: The praise God, the harvest game.

44:44.593 --> 44:45.574
[SPEAKER_00]: And he's in heaven now.

44:47.396 --> 44:47.737
[SPEAKER_00]: Are you?

44:48.958 --> 44:51.060
[SPEAKER_00]: And I have one last verse before I close the verse.

44:51.981 --> 44:54.844
[SPEAKER_00]: And I want you to hear this, this is beautiful.

44:54.864 --> 44:55.825
[SPEAKER_00]: The New Earth will come.

44:56.706 --> 44:58.988
[SPEAKER_00]: And we will all be there together.

44:59.660 --> 45:01.422
[SPEAKER_00]: harvest will finally come.

45:02.083 --> 45:04.366
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen to this, Revelation chapter 14.

45:05.307 --> 45:09.833
[SPEAKER_00]: Revelation chapter 14, the harvest of the earth it says in the Bible.

45:10.413 --> 45:12.917
[SPEAKER_00]: Revelation chapter 14, 14 through 16.

45:13.738 --> 45:14.699
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen what John says.

45:15.099 --> 45:18.163
[SPEAKER_00]: I looked and there it was a white cloud.

45:18.904 --> 45:21.988
[SPEAKER_00]: And on the cloud sat one,

45:22.070 --> 45:42.947
[SPEAKER_00]: like a son of man having on his head a golden crown and in his hand a sharp sickle now you know what a sickle is some people look at a sickle they think of the of death they think of of the grim reaper that note note note note note a sickle is a farming tool they go around and help

45:42.927 --> 45:48.213
[SPEAKER_00]: and they cut and grabbed the fruit, they grabbed the things that were prepared to be used.

45:48.734 --> 45:54.260
[SPEAKER_00]: That is what this sickle is for to grab us who are meant to be in heaven.

45:54.280 --> 45:55.401
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, we go through that again.

45:55.982 --> 46:03.511
[SPEAKER_00]: And there was a white cloud and on the cloud set one like us son of man having on his head a golden crown and his hand is sharp sickle.

46:03.531 --> 46:04.632
[SPEAKER_00]: Now listen to this.

46:05.067 --> 46:21.220
[SPEAKER_00]: the verse 15, then another angel came out of the simple crying with the loud voice to him who said on the crowd, listen to this, thrust your sickle and reap the time has come for you to reap the harvest of the earth is ripe.

46:21.200 --> 46:28.888
[SPEAKER_00]: So he sat on the cloud, thrust his sickle on the earth and the earth was harvested.

46:29.469 --> 46:32.612
[SPEAKER_00]: Praise the Lord God, the time of harvest is coming.

46:33.053 --> 46:40.040
[SPEAKER_00]: Be prepared, be ready, because if you're ready for the time of harvest, the Lord God is ready to harvest you.

46:40.581 --> 46:43.884
[SPEAKER_00]: Be prepared, let your seeds be prepared, let your seeds be ready.

46:44.425 --> 46:49.570
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't pay attention to all the loud voices around you, but be quiet and listen.

46:50.309 --> 47:01.181
[SPEAKER_01]: Be still, God is me, let the seeds be planted, let be product up in appropriate time.

47:02.503 --> 47:04.925
[SPEAKER_01]: It's harvest time.

47:04.945 --> 47:06.007
[SPEAKER_00]: Be ready for the harvest.

47:07.208 --> 47:10.592
[SPEAKER_00]: And it says in Matthew 9 36 to 38 as we close.

47:11.853 --> 47:15.017
[SPEAKER_00]: But when he saw the crowds, this is Jesus now.

47:15.117 --> 47:19.742
[SPEAKER_00]: When he saw the crowds, he was moved with the passion for them.

47:19.874 --> 47:24.781
[SPEAKER_00]: because they fainted and were scattered like sheep without a shepherd.

47:25.362 --> 47:32.453
[SPEAKER_00]: Then he said to his disciples, the harvest is plentiful for the laborers are few.

47:33.174 --> 47:41.686
[SPEAKER_00]: Therefore, pray to the Lord of the harvest that he will send out laborers into his harvest.

47:42.788 --> 47:47.755
[SPEAKER_00]: You are laborers, be prepared, the harvest is coming.

47:49.321 --> 47:54.787
[SPEAKER_00]: But it is our job to let the Holy Spirit use us, to speak to us, to speak through us.

47:55.808 --> 47:58.911
[SPEAKER_00]: Because God needs you to be prepared to do what needs be done.

47:58.971 --> 48:01.774
[SPEAKER_00]: So be prepared for its harvest time.

48:04.056 --> 48:05.558
[SPEAKER_00]: Let God's harvest be done.

48:07.079 --> 48:07.920
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's close the prayer.

48:08.421 --> 48:11.304
[SPEAKER_00]: For Jesus, I pray right now, for your will to be done in our lives.

48:11.804 --> 48:13.506
[SPEAKER_00]: I pray for the time of harvest.

48:13.722 --> 48:18.228
[SPEAKER_00]: Lord, I also know that it is your will not ours and your time not ours.

48:18.949 --> 48:29.642
[SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes we allow sadness, anger, depression, confusion, misunderstanding to take over.

48:31.064 --> 48:35.530
[SPEAKER_00]: And in doing so, Lord God, we sometimes may pray, Lord God, let me go home, I'm ready.

48:36.131 --> 48:39.595
[SPEAKER_00]: I know that happens, probably happens with everyone, I know it has with me.

48:40.182 --> 48:48.533
[SPEAKER_00]: But Lord, I take this back Lord, I say, not my will, but your will, Lord, let your harvest time come, not mine.

48:49.294 --> 48:55.202
[SPEAKER_00]: For those of Lord God who are out of town right now, maybe they're out of town because of family events, Lord, it is Thanksgiving weekend.

48:55.742 --> 48:57.244
[SPEAKER_00]: I pray, Lord, for safety over them.

48:57.765 --> 49:02.511
[SPEAKER_00]: And I pray and hope, Lord, that you use them to allow seed to be planted in others.

49:02.947 --> 49:14.381
[SPEAKER_00]: And Lord God, I pray right now that you will continue to plant this seed through us Lord in our workplaces and our families, even online Lord God, I pray Lord God for those who are having hard times, difficulties right now.

49:15.121 --> 49:20.908
[SPEAKER_00]: I pray Lord God, you are a mind in them that they are usable if they allow themselves to be used.

49:21.709 --> 49:26.635
[SPEAKER_00]: Right now there might be someone even right now who's here and believes that they're beyond use.

49:27.436 --> 49:29.899
[SPEAKER_00]: I pray Lord God first of all, we review that spirit.

49:30.082 --> 49:36.274
[SPEAKER_00]: And I pray Lord God, you are a mind them that they too are a tool that can be used to have seed planted.

49:36.995 --> 49:41.002
[SPEAKER_00]: A harvest time is here, and we need to be ready to be used at time and harvest.

49:41.824 --> 49:45.070
[SPEAKER_00]: I pray all this in your holy precious name, amen, and amen.
