Sunday, December 29, 2024 || God is Good Always || Jose Brevil

Our time in the scriptures, just want to take some time to just brag on God. I want to take some time for our time today. I just want to take that time for us to reflect on the year and however, that God has been good to you, or God has been good to me. And I don't think there's any better scripture than Psalm 34 where we can go ahead and brag on God and be reminded God, God is always good. God is good, always, and that's what I want to talk to you this morning about about the goodness of God, because God is Good, always. How many of you believe that God is good always regardless of what we faced a lot of us have faced all kinds of Trials, all kinds of problems but we can always look back. If you look deep enough, if we are in God's word, if we're walking in his will. If we look deep enough, all of us can look back and see the goodness of God, the spiked anything that we might face in this life. So if you would come with me to some 3434 with me on the screen but I also want you and your Bible, that's also good to 1st Samuel, which is a backdrop to Psalm 34 in 1st, Samuel chapter 21, we going to look at verse 10 to 15 there and also the beginning of chapter 23 in The book of 1st Samuel but we're going to be in Psalm 34. Some 34 father bless our time now. Has we study your word? Help us Lord God. To as we go through the song, this morning to reflect on the year as we here, eating your words, may you bring to remembrance how you have been good to us this year. I know sometimes it can get especially when we Face trials, we Face problems. We faced difficulties sometimes it can be blurred how good you have been to us and we have a way of forgetting for our memories as long as the shortest pencil. So father as we reflect on the year now, may you teach our hearts and help us Lord God to remember how you have been good to us. God is good. Always sorry. Question for you this morning. Have you ever experienced the goodness of God or have you had an encounter with him this year? Have you ever experienced the goodness of God and just like, Isaiah in the book of Isaiah 6:5, when Isaiah and countered Godwin, Isaiah had an encounter with God, when Isaiah, the prophet finally, Experiencing God, Look at his response. Who is me? I am lost. I am undone, if it's for I am a man of unclean lips and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips for my eyes, have seen the king, the lord of House.

Seat. When you have an encounter, we've got it as a way of humbling you. It has a way of bringing you down with and to remember that you are napping. See Isaiah, the prophet. When he encountered, God, he had to cry out. What is me? You realize that I am that all that. I think that I was a job at a similar encounter when all that has been going on in job's life at the end and Joe 42, what did George say? In verse 5, I have heard of you by the hearing of the year, I wanted to see, but now my eye sees you Is that a changed man? When we have a real encounter with God, when we have a God and counter is humbles us and has a way of making us see. Clearly it has a way of changing for the better and joke says therefore I despise myself and repent in dust and Ashes. So, Joby thing, I am not all that. I thought that I was

Whenever you see somebody so prideful, they just have not encountered. Whenever you see somebody so full of themselves, they think they're all day that they think they are the open positions. They think they are their title. Guess what? They have. Not yet encountered, the Living God. It's the same in our Bible reading in the Book of Revelation when John is getting all his Revelations. What was the latitude?

It is the same thing. We going to see this morning and in some 30 for it will be an expression of Praise from David, where David got to experience God as we go for the message. You know, Frank, how have you experienced died this year? How have you experienced God this year? I was God spoken to you. How has God been good to you. His, the message in one sense when you have had an encounter with God or have experienced hand, personally, you have no choice but to turn to praise him. Testify of his works, and these others the right way to live, can you say it with me? When you have had an encounter with God or have experienced him? Personally, you have no choice, but to turn to praise Him. Testify of his works and think others the right way to live. But before we get to some 30, for the backdrop to, the psalm is in the book of Samuel. And if you look in your paper Bible or or your app, At the top of the Psalms, it says, a Psalm of David when he change his behavior before abimelech, so that he drove him out and went away. So David was in trouble and that's why they return. And wrote Psalm 34, hey, here's the bad reviews. What was going on? Inverse tan of 1st Samuel. 21 verse 10 to 15 and David Rose and fled that day from Salt and went to a shish. The king of gas actually was the name of the King. Abimelech was his title. So Hear David is running away from Saul because so was trying to kill him because Saul knew that David has been annoyed, Dude, King book because of dad, so has met David his enemy, which it did not have to be but because so has made David, his enemies with David is on the Run. David is fleeing Jerusalem and then David went to the land of the Philistine where you say, says the king of gas just came from there. Maya. To David, the bestest, most secure way for me to go and hide. I need to go to the land of the Philistine, but he was grossly mistaken. Keep reading voice 11. It says in the service of Ashes said to him is not this David, the king of the land. That means the ruler. The guy that's in charge, did they not seem to one another of human dances? So has struck down his thousands, and David Hughes what his ten thousands. Remember after David struggle liar, that's the song that was being sung in the land, that's why it's called the starting to get jealous of David. And now, I so wanted to kill him because now everybody is seeing David, as the King instead of soul is still ruling, it was not even, David's time yet. So David, and his human wisdom that go into the land of the Philippines will be my Hiding Place. But now, when you see the servant of the king you saying, isn't this David They calling that he killed 10,000. And what did he kill our own man? That go liar. So that means David realize I am in trouble so I'm running from Saul but now the letter of the Philistine they're going to kill me. See what happens is a funny story. Ready first well and David to this words to heart and was much. What was the word there? Afraid of a shoe store. Abimelech the king of guy. So damn it. Understood what the guy said. When he saying isn't this David? It's like we've been looking for you pal to take revenge from Goliath. You killed our most important Warrior. So is that you reflected the survey thing? Am I really seeing with my own eyes? Is this really David? Now David understood what was going to happen and now look at this verse 13. So he change his behavior before them and what did he do? He pretended to be insane and started acting like a crazy man. In their hands and made marks on the door, first of the gate and let his spittle, run down his beard Year. I'll see you, then Ashley said to his servants behold, you see the man is mad. Why then have you brought him to me? Did David trick works? Do I like madman that you have brought this Feller to behave as a man? I married my present child's. This fellow come into my house to feel like a king a thing. What do I have to do?

What's the point of taking Revenge?

Let him go. That's how David is gay. Then when David asked, gave David the party from the air and escaped to the cave of adullam and when his brothers and his father's house heard of it, they went down there to he and Sir David was hiding in a cave and everyone was in distress and everyone will was in that. Remember this verse, we're going to get back to it later in the psalm and everyone who was bitter and soul gathered to hear him and he became Commander over them. And there were with him about 400 men. That's the best army to have a lot of disgruntled people, huh? Keep that in mind as we go Blue, the song now, some 30 for some 30, for when you have had an encounter with God or have experienced him, personally, you have no choice, but to turn to praise him. And that's exactly what David did hear David must have encountered with the field where he pretended to be in, Spain, that David sees that I got up.

David says what I'm going to do. Look at the first verse, I Will Bless The Lord at all times and she's precious y'all going through really be in my mouth. So they own hoard. I made it that was a God and that I am still alive today. That the Philistines did not kill me. You see when we have an encounter with god, with whatever we face, it should bring us to Frank's. It should get us to realize. Oh, I am still here today because of the work of God. And that's what David realizing, David Payne, the song, thumb 34. And David start the song saying, I Will Bless The Lord when All times, good times bad times, ugly time. When am I going to do? I'm going to praise the Lord. Jesus, praise shall continually be in my mouth, is what you call an acrostic. Every first line starts with a letter in the, in the Hebrew alphabet except the 61 somehow. It is Skip. So we think that it done in complete poem, or baby just skipped. It could not get creative enough to find the pixie Brew, alphabet, whatever it is. But every word, you know, starts with a letter in the Hebrew, alphabet. When I was growing up as a kid, that was a big thing. You have to do, if you wanted to get a girlfriend, you better write some phones. And then he knows you would take the girl's name like I did, for my wife, put the letters every letter, you start the poem with the first letter of the name you know for me I just was the shortened version of her name Amy e and why. So I just eat I said my first words only to the fall line poem, I didn't do the full match. That is a very common way of writing poems your acrostic that was a way of writing so that's why are you know in this dumb sometimes you might feel like it's disconnected but it's not really disconnected. So as reread and go through the song You Know It is a poem that we are reading in the English language. We don't see it as clearly as it is like in the Hebrew language, but but, but keep in mind, we are reading a poem and hear David. Start you going to like, you will see that dude, like, he's jumping from touch to touch, but really, there is some coherence to it. The first three verses here, we will see that, David is praising God, then we're from verse 42. Verse 10 will see that where he's kind of testifying about God's work. I didn't the last part from verse 11, 222, that's why. Now he's teaching about God's work to get it, I will bless the Lord when at all times and he's praise. Shall continually be where in my mouth, you see a lot of us. Sometimes we keep the praise. We're just in our hearts. But God wants us to express it. Raised me to be Express, so we cannot only just keep God's praising are hard. Yes, it's good to make melody in our heart to God, but we also need to express it to put it out loud to help us remember that. We just so you know, praising God. It's not just prayed for God, but it's also for us when we express it then we really get to fully experience what's going on in our life see just like David did, I Will Bless The Lord at all times and he's Brave shall continually be in my mouth. That means it needs to come out. So we need to do it. That's why we sing when we are singing and worshiping God, guess what? What are we doing? We are expressing the things that God is doing in our lives. That's why I worship is very serious. That we always need to take that. Very seriously. That's the songs that we are singing that. We mean, what? We are singing. Then we understand what we are singing that when we are singing that we meditating on it because we are praising God, based on what he's doing. In our lives, look at verse to my soul makes his boast in the Lord. Led the humble here and the July was David, humble, bad, if experience. you bet he was Save, my soul makes its boast in the Lord because David understood the situation that I had faced. If it was not for God, He would not have made it out. So David says, my soul makes its boast in the Lord. Let the humble hear and be glad you see despite the difficulties When we Face God, when we experience God, when we have an encounter with God, he humbles us. And also what we need to be glad in him. The guy that has humbled a good look at vs300, magnify the Lord with me. God is already big enough women magnifying got that for us. Okay so we can understand and realize everything God is and hears everything, okay? Oh, magnify the Lord with me and let us exalt his name. Gather dust power in praising together so far the same as God by yourself. But get together with others and praise God. That's why we got it together. It's always better to worship together. Let's lay together, it's always better to worship together cuz here's the thing. You have had an encounter with God, I have an encounter with God, you have a God, you have had your Encounter With God. All our encounters with God. Have been different because God meant each one of us at the point of our individual needs. So, as such all of us are so, humbled in different ways and as a result, I can learn from your experience from God, you can learn from my experience with God, I can learn from your experience from God and so on, and on. So that's why it's always better to worship. Gather. That's why we need one another. I love the way that John start puts it. He says, the worship of God is always a response to the word of God. A lot of time. We just looking for big things to happen to have an encounter with God. I don't know about you. I'm a little crazy cuz I'm reading God's word. One ever speaks to me, it's like I'm shot home. Wow, how old is Jesus? We can have those encounters with God, by simply reading his word, as you reading his word and he's worse pics to you, it speaks to your heart, it ministers through your soul, it is. It gives you the humility that you needed. It pumps you up, it gives you guidance. It's gives you hope. Esri reading God's word. We are having encounters with. That's where we need to read. God's words daily, so that we can have daily encounter with him. The worship of God as a response to the word of God, Scripture. One wonderfully, the Rex and enriches our worship your feet. When we need to break into praise, be probably David just saying this poem to the people in the cave, remember, where they are at work. They are inside a cave.

We need God's word. The more we are in God's word, the mowing counters, we will have with him the more that we will get to experience him and the more it will drive us to worship to praise him. Because when we have had an encounter with God, we have no choice but to turn to praise him.

Second things that we see in the song from verse 4 to 10, when you have an encounter with God or have experienced him, personally you have no choice but to testify of his works. You'll have a chance at the end of the service to testify of God's work in your life, be testifying of his works, you can keep it to yourself. After David had such an experience, he had to testify and that's why he went in pain the song because you realize that there's no way he would have gotten out of the land of the Philistines. But if it was not for God, So, when we have at had a gallon counter, we need to tell others, we need to express our praise publicly. We need to share that with others, because we need to testify of his work, What the Lord Has Done. Look at verse for I start the Lord, and what did he do? He answered me. And he delivered me from some of my fears from all my fears. Remember our fears or false? Evidence appearing real Beers or false evidence appearing, real. So we need to turn our fear to face. Because faith can overcome all our fear. And then when fear comes into our life,

that doesn't mean that it's, there are not some truth to it that we need to overcome. But there is not a challenge that God can that overcome. So when the problems comes our way, when the challenges come we replace that with faith because faith can overcome our feeders. Because God is greater than all our fears. He says, I sought the Lord and he answered me. So, the reason why we don't have to worry about our field, because we are seeking the Lord. And what will God do? He delivered me from all? My fears is, wasn't David still facing the same situation? Yes. But what was the difference? The god different Yeah, I'd had an encounter with God look here in verse 5, those will look through him or what? Radio. And their faces shall never be. A shame. David here saying despite what you face, you can still have joy. Your face does not have to be downcast. It is not the end of the world. He failure is not the end. Failure is not fatal.

Those who look to him are radiant and their faces shall never be ashamed to face, guess what? Look to me, look to me, I can make your face radiant because you can still have joy, even in the midst of suffering. Even in the midst of fear, even in the midst of problems, you can still have joy and David says, Hey space. Those would look to him already in. So when you face your problems, guess who should you look to? Look to God, don't stare at your problems. Don't stare at the the fear what you were afraid of, you need to look up to God because God will make you radiant. Those will look to him a radiant and their faces will never be ashamed of the guys in whatever your face. I got you isn't God good. I told you I was bragging on God I'm so I hope that you know that you don't mind me dragging on God. How do I say? You got a problem versus fix this poor man. Cried, and the Lord heard him. So he when you cry out to him, guess what? He hears us. What does he do? He also takes actions, and what does he do? And he saved him out of all his trouble. You see, the emphasize the emphasis here on all as we go for the songs. So, it really, what seems to be impossible to us is very easy for God. And all means, all, and that's all all means through. God. I will save you. A lot of all your troubles. He will save you out of all your trouble, and you better believe it. Stop staring at your fear at your problems, but stare at God because it says doors will look to him are radiant and their faces shall never be a shame. So when you look God got pics away, your fears and God takes away your shame. I don't look 47, the angel of the Lord does y and camps around you. And camps around those who, what the guy says fear me. Don't fear your problems, don't fear your enemies, don't fear fear itself, the other things that you face, but you fear me. So, I got to take a walk with me because voices, In the beginning of the fear of the Lord, is the beginning of wisdom seek first, the kingdom of God, and his righteousness, that means walk with him. That everything will come after the angel of the Lord. In camps around those who walk with God, Wu-Tang god, seriously to fear God means you think God seriously. And God says, what any deliver? The angel of the Lord, and camps around those who fear Him and delivers them? I know, that's where people get the idea of a guardian angel in the Bible about that, but we know that God's angels does watch over us. The run is everybody. As an individual Angel? Just a side note that God is dispatching is angels to protect us to watch over us, to keep us to Deliver Us from trouble to Deliver us from our fear Comfort us. Remember, when Jesus, after he was tempted than the Angels came and did what the minister to him? God has a way of doing the same for us also where God can dispatches and rules to minister to us and he has the key verse you ready? Oh,

And see that the Lord is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him so Davidson and if you've never experienced God, you better start Experiencing God because you need to pay and see that the Lord is good. If you've never experienced God, you better get an encounter with him now. Read his word whenever you face your troubles, you look very face. Your trials are problems Look to Him and David is saying Hey try God, pretty much. That's what David is saying. Never be the same. Try God and see if you will be wrong. He saying oh, taste and see that. The Lord is all things work together for good to those who love God, to do, those who are called. According to, what his purpose, God is always there for us and we can always count and rely on him too. Good in Romans chapter 8 again in verse 1. What does it says therefore there is now what no condemnation for those who are in Christ. So, if you were in cries, guess what there is now? Therefore, what no, condemnation to Deuce, who are in him? Even in the same chapter chapter 8, it says the spirit. Praise on our behalf when we have a problem that is too big to too high for us where we cannot even express this with word. Why does it say? It says the spirit Praise on our behalf. And and intercedes for us, four words that are just you just like too deep for us to order all reminders. There are some problems that we face. Where will that be then? Be able to express it, but God sends spirit for us so that the spirit can pray on our behalf.

Even when we cannot express with words, what we are feeling what we face. But God sends his Spirit to intercede for us. And then we know that woman's eight, And with those words, in all this things, we are what more than conquerors through him, who loved us for. I am sure that neither death nor life nor angels, nor principalities nor powers nor things present, nor things to come nor powers nor height nor depth nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. Thank you for the two people are reading with me.

You can experience God for the scriptures and goddesses doesn't matter how far you've gone I got, you just have to turn to Mira parents and turned to me. Walk with me, take me seriously, walk in the fear of the Lord, guess what? I guess, what God says, I got you. Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him, some 46 is the Lord is our refuge and strength of very present of right now. God a very present help in times of need, or in times of trouble. To God, says verse 9 fear. The lord today, but you need to Walk women. You need to take him, seriously, that's what it means to fear. The lord doesn't say. When you walk with me, you take me. Seriously, you live for me. You stay in my word, you walk with me. God says, or fear the lord you he is now. David is reminding us. We are saints Saints, cannot be living in sins. The place is old fear the lord, you his Saints. God says a you belong to me and you need to live as thanks live as such for those who take him. Seriously, walk with him, would fear Him have no lack

Sometimes I read God's Wrath of God. Are you serious?

God says 8:00, you take me seriously guess what? You will have no lack.

Whatever you can think of. God says, if you take me seriously, you walk with me. You you, you live for me that says, you will have no luck. The Bible tells his delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you what the desires of your heart because you will, your heart will be. So in tune with God, you will only want what guys want and God will give you what you want. Because the desire that already in your heart is what his desires. The guys name like when you working clothes with me, you working tight with me. Guess what? My desires become your desires. And God says, I hate when you walk with me, guess what? You will not like Haley thing. You will not like anything and you can take God at his word. God says, I will never leave you. I will never forsake you. So goddamn always be there for you. When you face difficulties, you face trials. You fix problems. God will always be there when you feel this depressed. You feel lonely. God says, I will be there for you. Whatever, difficulties, whatever problems that you fake. God says, you will not lack anything. Many of you can already testify to this. That when you walking with God, you have no luck. Because remember being satisfied as God, that doesn't mean that you have a life free from problems, but whatever you face, guess what? You can still have joy and peace in the midst of suffering in the midst of trouble in the midst of problem, because you just rise up above it. Because God is greater than our fears. God is greater than our problems. God got us over fear the lord, you his Saints for those, who fear Him have no life and worse than the Young Lion. Suffer want and hunger. Look up, look at the second part again. You ready, but those who seek the Lord

Lock. No, good thing. If you can get it from the previous verse, David is saying it. Again, those who seek the Lord that looking for him gets the Bible, says the eyes of the Lord are looking to and fro for those were seeking him. So that he can come and be with him in his drawer near to God and He will draw near to you the gods as 8, if you're seeking me, guess what you will find me, the Young Lions suffer want and hunger but those was sick, the Lord, like what? No.

Good. Good.

Lastly, when you have had an encounter with God or have experienced him, personally, you have no choice but to teach others the right way to live your teaching. Others to do the same thing to praise him and to testify of his works, you ready? I let's go verse 11. Come O children. Listen to me. What does Avery say here? I will teach you what the fear of the Lord. That means to take god, seriously to walk with God to live for him. David says, I will teach you the fear of the Lord. So that's why we need to do the same. As we are encountering. God encountering God, we have experienced him, we need to turn to praise him when it to testify of what he has done in our lies. But we also need to teach others to do the same. So verse 12, what? Manny's Deerwood desires, life and loves many days that he may see. Good brick 13. Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking the seats. So we sang Walk With God, Walk righteously before God, and be honest, tell the truth have integrity and he sang than all those blessings, all those things that he testified of inverse 4210. He's saying those are yours. You will not like, any good thing. You are walking with God Faithfully, verse 14, Turn Away From Evil and what do good. Wonderful thing. You can do a bad thing in a good thing. At the same time, if you are being good, you can be bad. But if you're being bad, guess what? You can be good. Be here saying, Turn Away From Evil. Just you have to replace the evil with good. It's not just stub doing evil but you need to start doing good. He turn away from Evil and do good. That's why I let them people just failed with, you know, all the plans. We're going to put for the new year because you're so not used to doing what you going to try to be to do. You have to replace an old, a bad habit with a good one. That's why it says turn away from Evil and you start doing good. You can not just a bad cold but you also need to start eating good food. See, seek peace. And what are you seeking it? But you need to be intentional about it.

12 that says I don't remember maybe in Hebrews 12 actually you know seek peace and pursue it is saying don't seek peace with everyone and everything and it also sanctification we followed that you cannot see the Lord to hear. David is saying seek peace and pursue it. Be intentional about leaving in pieces as the eyes of the Lord are toward the, who the righteous. Those were walking with him. Those would take him seriously and his ears toward their cry. So God is saying the prayers. I'm listening to all the prayers of those who are walking with me. Those who have confessed their sins does web made a commitment to walk with me. God, says 8 days are the prayers that I am listening to the eyes of the Lord? I can wear the righteous and he is Ears toward their cry. So God says that you want me to hear your prayers start walking with me, the face of the Lord is against those who do. Evil to cut off the memory of them from the of God's given. They don't even going to remember their memories. I'm going to cut them. Open. Some people like for example and Hitler, when you hear that, what does it come to mine? Only Evil Dead. It sounds like they just that's just a picture of evil says, when the righteous Cry for Help. The Lord does what? here's, Does Walking with God, those with, take him, seriously, those will fear Him got this when you cry for help. What does God do? He hears? And what? Isn't that interesting? God does not only hears, but he always takes action. Look at all those verses that you see when they say get out of here, but also got takes actions and delivers them out of some of their trouble out of all their trouble. Do you realize, how many times you've seen all? I didn't remember what all means. Again, almonds, all, and that's all all means we need to take God at his word. God says, he will deliver you from all your trouble, guess what? You will deliver you from all your trouble and it gives the thing. Some of us, we are so accustomed to problems into trouble. We never think that we can ever get out of our trouble. Have you ever meet some people like that? You know, it will always be trouble and then when something good is going there, very scared. Don't leave like that. When God is being good to you. Enjoy the ride. Allen. Don't wait for bad things to happen. Can they come yes?

Because God says, don't look at your problems of. Look at you fear, it says doors will look to him or what radiant. So you look to God, even in the midst of your problems, you can still have drawing. So it really doesn't matter when the righteous Cry for Help the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their trouble in verse 18. The Lord is near to the Brokenhearted, those who are crushed in spirit and Saves The Crush spirit. So if you feel broken heart, if you feel far from God, if you feel like your heart has been broken, Guess What? God Says. Is there? The Lord is near to the Brokenhearted and saves. The crushed Spirit doesn't even know what he's talking about.

Do you think David knows what he's talking about? What he's talking about, having a broken heart, having your spirit crushed? David knows a little something about that. Remember the guy we just pretended to be insane. The guy was always on the run from Saul, the king, having all the power trying to kill him. He's always running.

You think he has had his heart broken. Then she Spirit has been crushed when God promised you would have become king and then but after God give you a promise, even anointed you as king and you're just running.

Are you going to be sitting on your throne? but instead David was on the Run, For a long time before he actually became king. And again, remember the people who came to David to be his man to be his army. 1st Samuel, 20 22 and everyone was what in distress. And everyone was in death. You know, those old days when you had dad that you could not paid, they could take you into slavery. To work for that Master. until you pay all the debts or up to seven years for the years of Jubilee, when you will be released

so everyone was distracted, everyone who was in death and everyone will was Leader and soul, what a great Army. Got it to him and he became Commander over them. And there were with him about four hundred men. Can you believe, can you? Can you realize having 400 grouchy man with you? Edit day going to be like I was protecting you. They going to be the guys that are going to work with you to lead you to victory.

Maybe see what seems to be impossible to man is very easy for God. You see what the devil meant for evil? God can use it for good. You see what the world look as foolish but God, wisdom is in it. And God, use all those men were distress were in that were bitter and soul who had all kinds of problems. But guys is David, this is your army. You've got to become king, but there you go. You are the guys we're going to help to get you there. Here are the guys who are going to protect you. Who did God have a sense of humor? Now, we understand Verse 18, when David says the Lord is what near to the Brokenhearted and saves those crushed spirit. The really that was Redemption for those man. It's kind of, they have nothing to live for. And that's God's way of redeeming them and putting them with David was on the Run. And then God says they I'm going to do something good with you guys. Isn't God amazing. It's going to wait when the Bible says that we are clay in the head of the part of clay by itself. It just dirt Good. When you have Clay, you put it in the hand of a master Potter and they do wonderful things with it doesn't. I got the same thing that God promised to do with each of Our Lives. We can be clay in the hands of the master in God's as you will do something beautiful with us no matter how broken, no matter how

that we might be. That's a place for a Hallelujah.

Oh, yummy breakfast. Let me try again. It doesn't matter how broken we are. How crushed that we feel, but God can use it and turn off just as a beautiful clay as a beautiful pottery in his hands. Good YOLO, wake. Now Left Coast verse 19. Meaning are what the afflictions of the righteous. That's the thing. That's the problem with popular teachings. Today, as if you come to God, you will not have any problems. God never says that in this book. When God says, you will let have no. Like, you would not like anything. That doesn't mean the spiteful problem Bible says, in this world, you will have problems. Maney. Not just a little, it says, Amy are the afflictions of the righteous. So you can be walking with God. You're doing all the right things. You can still face. What many afflictions. We are bringing things up on our gates and even endorse Wings. What do we do? What's the recipe and turn to God? And I guess what, God even can use the bad things and turn them into good things. But here it says, many are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord does what? delivered him out of some of them out of how many times have we seen all here?

So your assignment is to go back and look at how many times that God use the word, all in this song when it says he will deliver you out of all your fears out of all your problems, you best believe it. All and invoice 20, he keeps all his bones, not one of them is broken. This is a awesome looking to Jesus. Guess what? When Jesus went in Lacrosse. Did they break any of his bones? Customary. They will break the bones of the people on the cross to see whether they are dead. Or if they were not dead to finish them, Caress your legs. But by the time, they came to Jesus and piercing one of the side he didn't move because he was already dead.

He keeps all his bones, not one of them is broken and wonderful, God is using a man was broken. Was crushed and looking forward to Messiah.

God can use any of us, no matter what state we're in.

Verse 21, Affliction will slay, the wicked and those who hate the righteous will be.

God, got your back. Remember Psalm 23, he what the table before me in the presence of my enemies. You have to worry about your enemies, you have to fear them, got to go. Take care of them.

You know, the other transition is that God's? It's a big banquet before you in the presence of your enemies, God will make you feet. In the presence of your enemies. It isn't same thing here. That's all this is telling us here, again and some 34 Affliction will slay. The wicked dude who are out to harm us to, to do harm to us, and those who hate us for? No, cuz I hate the righteous. God says, I will take care of them. They will be kind of. Did you see Mike there? It says will be condemned. So God says, I will take care of them and lastly, the Lord readings the life of his serve. None of those would take refuge in him will become there. Isn't that good? The Lord redeems, the life of his servants. It doesn't matter how many years that the locusts have stolen. God can redeem those years. It doesn't matter how many years that you have lust and in any problems or any situation is that your face? You feel like you have to make up for so much less time. God says, the Lord does what he redeems the life of his servants. So whatever years that the locusts the devil has stolen, God says, what I can redeem them. The Devil comes to killed, Alan to destroy, but I have come that you might have life and have it how abundantly John 10:10. So it doesn't matter how many years. The devil has killed has still a stole. Level come to kill to steal, to destroy. Doesn't matter how many years that the devil has destroyed. But God says I have come, so you might have life and have it up under the gases. I can redeem those years as you learn to fear me, as you learn to walk with me as you learn to take me, seriously. God says, I can redeem those years for you. The Lord redeems the life of his servants. This is a certain singing, this song. What is this day? There said the last part with me. None, zero. NADA, zilch those who take refuge in me. Will be condemned. The gas is a U-turn to me. Guess what you take refuge with me, you will find Refuge And you will not be condemned.

They're really in a nutshell. What God is trying to tell this? It doesn't matter. What reflects we can always remember birth dates. Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good.

Blessed is the man. who takes refuge in, who In him. So when you have a guy that encounter when you have experience, God personally you need to turn to praise him, you need to Testify of his work and you need to teach others. The right way to live. Father, thank you for your grace. Thank you for your love and for your mercy. Help us to be reminded that we are. Thanks, we live for you. So father help us to take you seriously. Take you at your word. Walk with you. Love you with praise you. We thank you for your goodness. The goodness really is running after us.
