00:01:01.146 --> 00:01:03.115
wanted to know.Remember when-

Remember when-Do you remember this JJ?
00:01:04.249 --> 00:01:05.984
Do you remember this JJ?Mark 5, Jairus comes
00:01:05.984 --> 00:01:08.020
Mark 5, Jairus comesand he's a synagogue leader.
00:01:08.020 --> 00:01:09.755
and he's a synagogue leader.He's important.
00:01:09.755 --> 00:01:10.389
He's important.He's important.
00:01:10.389 --> 00:01:11.190
He's important.You can tell what's
00:01:11.190 --> 00:01:12.157
You can tell what'simportant to someone
00:01:12.157 --> 00:01:14.059
important to someoneby what they schedule.
00:01:14.059 --> 00:01:15.060
by what they schedule.His 12 year old daughter --
00:01:15.060 --> 00:01:16.862
His 12 year old daughter --I have a 12 year old son.
00:01:16.862 --> 00:01:18.330
I have a 12 year old son.Graham is 12 right now
00:01:18.330 --> 00:01:19.531
Graham is 12 right nowso I can picture this.
00:01:19.531 --> 00:01:20.766
so I can picture this.His 12 year old daughter
00:01:20.766 --> 00:01:22.000
His 12 year old daughteris about to die.
00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:23.469
is about to die.This is an urgent,
00:01:23.469 --> 00:01:25.471
This is an urgent,an urgent need for Jesus to go
00:01:25.471 --> 00:01:26.738
an urgent need for Jesus to goand heal this little girl.
00:01:26.738 --> 00:01:27.372
and heal this little girl.And some of you have
00:01:27.372 --> 00:01:28.474
And some of you havean urgent need with your
00:01:28.474 --> 00:01:29.808
an urgent need with yourkids right now.
00:01:29.808 --> 00:01:30.742
kids right now.So that's why I wanted
00:01:30.742 --> 00:01:31.643
So that's why I wantedto bring this Scripture
00:01:31.643 --> 00:01:32.878
to bring this Scriptureinto the conversation,
00:01:32.878 --> 00:01:34.947
into the conversation,is that Jesus was on his way
00:01:34.947 --> 00:01:36.048
is that Jesus was on his wayto heal Jairus who
00:01:36.048 --> 00:01:37.683
to heal Jairus whowas an important official.
00:01:37.683 --> 00:01:39.585
was an important official.This is a political figure.
00:01:39.585 --> 00:01:40.586
This is a political figure.He has a lot of power
00:01:40.586 --> 00:01:42.621
He has a lot of powerand he's asking Jesus
00:01:42.621 --> 00:01:43.589
and he's asking Jesusto come to his house.
00:01:43.589 --> 00:01:47.693
to come to his house.On the way, a woman stops Jesus
00:01:47.693 --> 00:01:48.594
On the way, a woman stops Jesuswho is unclean
00:01:48.594 --> 00:01:51.663
who is uncleanby society's standards.
00:01:51.663 --> 00:01:53.799
by society's standards.He stops because she thinks,
00:01:53.799 --> 00:01:56.835
He stops because she thinks,"If I can touch him
00:01:56.835 --> 00:01:59.805
"If I can touch himI'll be made whole."
00:01:59.805 --> 00:02:01.373
I'll be made whole."And what she said was true.
00:02:01.373 --> 00:02:04.543
And what she said was true.She touched him, he stopped,
00:02:04.543 --> 00:02:05.944
She touched him, he stopped,she was healed,
00:02:05.944 --> 00:02:08.881
she was healed,Jairus' daughter died.
00:02:08.881 --> 00:02:09.781
Jairus' daughter died.Now I don't know that I ever

"All people will be blessed."But he didn't have a seed.
00:11:25.837 --> 00:11:28.773
But he didn't have a seed.He didn't have a son.
00:11:28.773 --> 00:11:30.975
He didn't have a son.And he wouldn't until
00:11:30.975 --> 00:11:33.745
And he wouldn't untilhe was 100 years old.
00:11:33.745 --> 00:11:34.512
he was 100 years old.And in case you're that one
00:11:34.512 --> 00:11:35.847
And in case you're that onethat can't do math that I
00:11:35.847 --> 00:11:36.981
that can't do math that Iwas talking about,
00:11:36.981 --> 00:11:40.385
was talking about,that's 25 years that God
00:11:40.385 --> 00:11:43.088
that's 25 years that Goddid not tell Abraham about.
00:11:43.088 --> 00:11:47.525
did not tell Abraham about.But he was right on schedule.
00:11:47.525 --> 00:11:49.127
But he was right on schedule.How can I make you feel this?
00:11:49.127 --> 00:11:50.128
How can I make you feel this?That's longer than we've
00:11:50.128 --> 00:11:53.064
That's longer than we'veknown each other, Holly.
00:11:53.064 --> 00:11:53.865
known each other, Holly.We haven't even known
00:11:53.865 --> 00:11:56.334
We haven't even knowneach other 25 years.
00:11:56.334 --> 00:11:57.368
each other 25 years.That's older than y'all
00:11:57.368 --> 00:11:59.637
That's older than y'allput together.
00:11:59.637 --> 00:12:02.407
put together.25 years.
00:12:02.407 --> 00:12:04.642
25 years.Think about it.
00:12:04.642 --> 00:12:05.176
Think about it.He didn't tell them
00:12:05.176 --> 00:12:07.278
He didn't tell themthe schedule.
00:12:07.278 --> 00:12:07.879
the schedule.How many of y'all think,
00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:08.947
How many of y'all think,"I could trust you better, God,
00:12:08.947 --> 00:12:12.083
"I could trust you better, God,if you'd show me the schedule."
00:12:12.083 --> 00:12:13.318
if you'd show me the schedule."It's not a trick question.
00:12:13.318 --> 00:12:14.385
It's not a trick question.You're allowed to want it.
00:12:14.385 --> 00:12:16.421
You're allowed to want it.It don't mean he's gonna do it.
00:12:16.421 --> 00:12:17.021
It don't mean he's gonna do it.He's not going to show
00:12:17.021 --> 00:12:18.523
He's not going to showyou the schedule.
00:12:18.523 --> 00:12:20.325
you the schedule.You can't handle the schedule.
00:12:20.325 --> 00:12:21.960
You can't handle the schedule.[Laughter]
00:12:21.960 --> 00:12:23.828
[Laughter]I promise you when Jesus
00:12:23.828 --> 00:12:24.829
I promise you when Jesussaid, right after
00:12:24.829 --> 00:12:25.797
said, right afterthey caught fish,
00:12:25.797 --> 00:12:27.298
they caught fish,"Hey follow me!"
00:12:27.298 --> 00:12:30.101
"Hey follow me!"He left out some details.
00:12:30.101 --> 00:12:31.836
He left out some details.That part about the cross,
00:12:31.836 --> 00:12:32.337
That part about the cross,he told them that
00:12:32.337 --> 00:12:34.272
he told them thata little later.
00:12:34.272 --> 00:12:35.006
a little later.He tells you some stuff
00:12:35.006 --> 00:12:36.674
He tells you some stuffa little later.
00:12:36.674 --> 00:12:39.911
a little later.He's an unschedulable God.
00:12:39.911 --> 00:12:40.912
He's an unschedulable God.And so he doesn't tell them,
00:12:40.912 --> 00:12:41.780
And so he doesn't tell them,"Hey they're gonna try
00:12:41.780 --> 00:12:42.814
"Hey they're gonna tryto kill me.
00:12:42.814 --> 00:12:43.481

Every day is gonna be terrible.Follow me."
00:12:53.091 --> 00:12:53.625
Follow me."He said,
00:12:53.625 --> 00:12:54.425
He said,"Hey you like those fish?
00:12:54.425 --> 00:12:56.461
"Hey you like those fish?Follow me."
00:12:56.461 --> 00:12:57.328
Follow me."That's all he told them.
00:12:57.328 --> 00:12:58.329
That's all he told them."Abraham, go to the land
00:12:58.329 --> 00:13:00.098
"Abraham, go to the landI'll show you."
00:13:00.098 --> 00:13:01.299
I'll show you."Now my wife never would have

in Charlotte, North Carolina.What's wrong with y'all?
00:16:59.604 --> 00:17:00.238
What's wrong with y'all?I'm not talking about just

I'm not talking about justmoving, I'm talking about
00:17:01.572 --> 00:17:02.740
moving, I'm talking abouthow God guides us
00:17:02.740 --> 00:17:04.742
how God guides usin our daily life.
00:17:04.742 --> 00:17:05.943
in our daily life.How he experience him.

How he experience him.Are you listening to me?

Are you listening to me?I'm not talking

I'm not talkingabout everybody just moving all
00:17:09.080 --> 00:17:11.749
about everybody just moving allaround and just chasing

the next feeling and justchasing the next trend,
00:17:15.253 --> 00:17:16.854
chasing the next trend,but what they had to do was they
00:17:16.854 --> 00:17:18.756
but what they had to do was theyhad to pay attention to what
00:17:18.756 --> 00:17:21.192
had to pay attention to whatGod was doing in that moment.
00:17:21.192 --> 00:17:22.126
God was doing in that moment.They had to pay attention.
00:17:22.126 --> 00:17:22.727
They had to pay attention.Watch this:
00:17:22.727 --> 00:17:23.694
Watch this:"Whether the cloud stayed over

00:17:33.404 --> 00:17:35.306

chapter 1 where he said,"I'm not going to tell you

out of the way,let me tell you this
00:18:06.804 --> 00:18:09.073
let me tell you thisfrom Numbers chapter 9:

"Um, I'm not sure

I mean I read my Bible everymorning at the same time

morning at the same timeand the Lord speaks to me."
00:18:25.723 --> 00:18:28.159
and the Lord speaks to me."I'm sure he does.
00:18:28.159 --> 00:18:28.993
I'm sure he does.But you can't leave him
00:18:28.993 --> 00:18:30.194
But you can't leave himwith your coffee cup in the sink
00:18:30.194 --> 00:18:32.463
with your coffee cup in the sinkwhen you go out the door.
00:18:32.463 --> 00:18:34.899
when you go out the door.You've gotta move with him.
00:18:34.899 --> 00:18:36.901
You've gotta move with him.You've gotta move with him.
00:18:36.901 --> 00:18:39.070
You've gotta move with him.The cloud would stay and God
00:18:39.070 --> 00:18:41.339
The cloud would stay and Godknows how we are as humans.
00:18:41.339 --> 00:18:42.540
knows how we are as humans.If he did it at the same
00:18:42.540 --> 00:18:44.909
If he did it at the sametime every day, they would
00:18:44.909 --> 00:18:46.944
time every day, they wouldworship how he did it
00:18:46.944 --> 00:18:49.447
worship how he did itand lose sight of him.
00:18:49.447 --> 00:18:51.015
and lose sight of him.So when we're working out,
00:18:51.015 --> 00:18:52.383
So when we're working out,Andrew, they always talk
00:18:52.383 --> 00:18:53.851
Andrew, they always talkabout muscle confusion.
00:18:53.851 --> 00:18:55.253
about muscle confusion.If you do the same exercise
00:18:55.253 --> 00:18:55.887
If you do the same exerciseover and over,
00:18:55.887 --> 00:18:56.888
over and over,you won't get stronger.
00:18:56.888 --> 00:18:59.757
you won't get stronger.I call this miracle confusion.
00:18:59.757 --> 00:19:00.791

and worship your schedule."God is not a monument.
00:19:13.838 --> 00:19:15.373
God is not a monument.God is not a formula.

God is not a formula.God is not a concept.
00:19:17.108 --> 00:19:18.776
God is not a concept.God is not human logic.
00:19:18.776 --> 00:19:19.944
God is not human logic.No, no, no.

And by the way,neither does the devil.
00:19:24.815 --> 00:19:25.716
neither does the devil.The devil doesn't look
00:19:25.716 --> 00:19:26.684
The devil doesn't lookand see, "Would it be alright

and shortness of breath?"No.
00:19:32.623 --> 00:19:34.525
No.You gotta stay in a place
00:19:34.525 --> 00:19:35.359
You gotta stay in a placewhere you know how

You gotta stay in a placewhere you are looking

where you are lookingat the presence of God.
00:19:42.033 --> 00:19:43.467
at the presence of God.One Psalmist said,
00:19:43.467 --> 00:19:46.604
One Psalmist said,"I lift my eyes to the hills.
00:19:46.604 --> 00:19:47.572
"I lift my eyes to the hills.My help doesn't come
00:19:47.572 --> 00:19:49.607

the East, or the West.My help comes from the Lord."
00:19:53.744 --> 00:19:54.478
My help comes from the Lord."Now who does your

00:20:00.117 --> 00:20:02.620
Who does your help come from?And if God wants to reset
00:20:02.620 --> 00:20:07.625
And if God wants to resetyour schedule will you let him?
00:20:07.625 --> 00:20:09.026
your schedule will you let him?If God wants to move he's like,
00:20:09.026 --> 00:20:10.428
If God wants to move he's like,"Hey, I know all your other

"Hey, I know all your otherfriends are over here doing

but I got somethingdifferent for you."
00:20:13.864 --> 00:20:19.203
different for you."God said, "Can we reschedule?
00:20:19.203 --> 00:20:20.104
God said, "Can we reschedule?I know you had all this stuff

00:20:25.443 --> 00:20:27.778
Can we reschedule?"I almost hear the Lord saying,
00:20:27.778 --> 00:20:30.715
I almost hear the Lord saying,"Let me make it up to you."
00:20:30.715 --> 00:20:32.583
"Let me make it up to you."I almost hear the Lord saying,
00:20:32.583 --> 00:20:33.918
I almost hear the Lord saying,"I'm going to do exceedingly,

for what I have scheduled."See to really trust God,

a schedule.He promised you a Spirit.
00:21:14.191 --> 00:21:15.192
He promised you a Spirit.See that's better.
00:21:15.192 --> 00:21:15.893
See that's better.That's better.

That's better.That's better.
00:21:16.794 --> 00:21:18.129
That's better.'Cause the spirit will give

'Cause the spirit will giveme the ability to step out
00:21:20.431 --> 00:21:22.099

because he got tired of waitingfor the schedule.
00:21:59.003 --> 00:22:02.073
for the schedule.I'm glad that the disciples

to make it clear,as clear as I can.
00:22:12.950 --> 00:22:13.684
as clear as I can.I can't make it as clear
00:22:13.684 --> 00:22:14.885
I can't make it as clearas I saw it.
00:22:14.885 --> 00:22:16.454
as I saw it.I'll never be able to do that.
00:22:16.454 --> 00:22:18.389
I'll never be able to do that.But I just saw God saying,
00:22:18.389 --> 00:22:21.459
But I just saw God saying,"Stop trying to schedule me.
00:22:21.459 --> 00:22:22.860

and then walk away, and reallynot do anything with it,
00:24:28.352 --> 00:24:30.387
not do anything with it,but when I really do sit down

00:24:32.122 --> 00:24:33.991

00:25:31.949 --> 00:25:33.384
- We talk a good game whenit comes to faith
00:25:33.384 --> 00:25:35.219
it comes to faithbut it still creates a tension
00:25:35.219 --> 00:25:36.620
but it still creates a tensionwhich is "How much should I
00:25:36.620 --> 00:25:38.689
which is "How much should Itrust God and how much
00:25:38.689 --> 00:25:41.425
trust God and how muchshould I try myself?"
00:25:41.425 --> 00:25:43.060
should I try myself?"You choose the story
00:25:43.060 --> 00:25:45.663
You choose the storythat you tell yourself.
00:25:45.663 --> 00:25:46.664
that you tell yourself.So if something's hard you
00:25:46.664 --> 00:25:47.498
So if something's hard youcan be like, "I guess the
00:25:47.498 --> 00:25:48.532
can be like, "I guess theLord isn't in this.
00:25:48.532 --> 00:25:50.100
Lord isn't in this.This is hard."
00:25:50.100 --> 00:25:50.868
This is hard."What if Jesus would have thought
00:25:50.868 --> 00:25:53.571
What if Jesus would have thoughtabout the cross that way?
00:25:53.571 --> 00:25:54.939
about the cross that way?Here's another story:
00:25:54.939 --> 00:25:55.806
Here's another story:"This is so hard,
00:25:55.806 --> 00:25:57.408
"This is so hard,it must be God."
00:25:57.408 --> 00:25:59.510
it must be God."We have all of these limitations
00:25:59.510 --> 00:26:00.644
We have all of these limitationson the ways that we think
00:26:00.644 --> 00:26:02.479
on the ways that we thinkGod can move and if it feels
00:26:02.479 --> 00:26:03.948
God can move and if it feelsgood we think it's God,
00:26:03.948 --> 00:26:05.382
good we think it's God,and if it feels bad we think
00:26:05.382 --> 00:26:06.216
and if it feels bad we thinkit's the devil.
00:26:06.216 --> 00:26:07.318
it's the devil.But God is calling us
00:26:07.318 --> 00:26:09.253
But God is calling usto re-categorize in this
00:26:09.253 --> 00:26:12.222
to re-categorize in thisseason of our life.
00:26:12.222 --> 00:26:15.993
season of our life.God's presence is unschedulable.
