Pastor Eric’s sermon TODAY will focus on TIME
Scripture speaks that we take time serious and to surrender our time to HIM
However, in many of the examples in our human history, we have spent time resisting HIS will, resisting HIS weight. as Pastor Eric says, therefore “This is a complete waste of time”
THE PURPOSE of our lives : As a child of GOD, everyday we ought to engage the meaning of GOD; to GLORIFY HIM
In Psalm 90
This Is a tribute to Moses in the wilderness; 40 years wandering in the scorched sun
He & the People who escaped Slavery in Egypt will eventually get to the Promised Land. But in the TIME (40 years), Moses cries out to GOD, “We are wasting our time here wandering. When will we cross into the land YOU PROMISED,- even though GOD knows they are not ready
Psalms 90:1-2
Lord, you have been our dwelling place throughout all generations. Before the mountains were born, you brought forth the whole world, from everlasting to everlasting, you are GOD
MOSES remembers Jehovah Is GOD and he is NOT
Pastor Eric as the Congregation, “Why is this so important - that Moses remembers this?”
In our present day, we declare this too. We have to surrender control so GOD can have HIS way in our daily lives
We can put our own lives into context. We can’t control anything. You don’t know when things are going to happen. We have to lay down the illusion, the mirage, the lie that we can act like GOD
When we try to control our lives on our own without surrendering all our problems to our GOD, Time goes by, relationships are broken, opportunities are lost
The 40 years in the dessert had purpose in the lives of Moses & the people back then
For us, we deal with many years of restless nights, the inability to sleep.
The dessert - this wilderness was meant to retrain them. They still thought like they were still slaves in Egypt
Today, we have to Surrender the DEEP WORK OF GOD & HIS WILL. We say, “I WANT TO GET THROUGH THIS”, like having a remote control to change the channel. We don’t allow GOD the time to be a part of our lives. Your hard times redeemable. To SURRENDER ALL is a Divine intention for healing
Plasma 90 : 7
We are consumed by your anger and terrified by your indignation. GOD is angry that the Moses & the people are wasting their lives
HE WANTS to use the dessert. It is meant as a gift to make good - to make them better
The dessert is all about a confrontation between us and allowing GOD’ WILL to be done in our lives
We are wrong to resist HIM. We waste time spent being thirsty, confused, and not making progress. In our daily lives, we want a relationship, a promotion, we want fame and money, etc.
GOD says, I am worry about your heart. I want to transform your “personhood”
GOD IS GOOD. HE is with me. Even with you are alone
Transformation & Wisdom is the dessert. Surrender to what will last the test of time
Palm 90:12 ,
God have your way with us . Teach us to number the days so that we may gain a heart of wisdom
Psalms 14-16
Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad for all of days. Make us glad for as many days that you have afflicted us, for as many years we have seen trouble may your deeds be shown to your servants, your splendor to your children
Moses failed to BUT the children (the NEXT GENERATION) learned
Plasm 90 : 17
“May the favor of our LORD GOD rest on us, establish the work of our hands for us. Yes, establish the work of our hands”
Let our lives have eternal meaning. ALLOW our HEAVENLY FATHER Establish the work of our hands. We have experienced YOUR righteous anger, be gracious to us
At the end of this sermon, Pastor Eric says, In the right hands, GOD can establish with beauty, with eternal meaning.
Let’s look at our calendars, let’s examine how we invest the next 20-50 years. Ask our HEAVENLY FATHER, “Do in me what needs doing. Heal what needs healing”
AND look joins me for the 930 AM WORSHIP service, My Good Friends & Brothers (Lloyd Polen & Bill Hayden)😇
