2nd Peter chapter 1 You know, I stopped working at night. Sometimes we get into a situation where you're parked out and have to use all very big difference in that kind of situation the other my flashlight off my phone when I when I looked I couldn't see anything in about three minutes later when that piece came back around it with the same thing as well this time, I better get my my life. My life is like white kind of like they're about life.

After 1:00 we can be starting in verse 19. The Bible says we have a war Story Board of Prophecy. Where is he? He do well as onto a white that shineth in a dark place until the day Dawn and the day star arise in your heart. There were given the admiration that we have a more sure word of Prophecy. That is the word of God as we think about this. He's making reference here to the Cubs versus just before that when he was talking about how she's how Jesus was transfigured before them on the fallen out there and they call the glory of God and the cloud there. And yes, he says we have a more sure word of Prophecy Jesus transfigured.

Come sweetheart. Moore's girl for the prophecy.

Bible told us what was great few days ago or has been forgotten and it passed away one of the biggest sporting events course at the Super Bowl with boys start to remember who is even won the Superbowl for The Last 5 Years will you know, it's great at the time and everybody knows it down, but it's quickly replaced. But the word of God is never going to be replaced would have doubted permitted in Jordan generation to generation the Bible tells us. Psalm 119 verse 60 says I'm a face and delay not to keep. Come in the commitments that are enduring forever and ever the Bible tells us Psalm 119 verse 89 not permanently. Heaven lost roster North doesn't corrupt not going to get it taken away. It's not going to get stolen. It's going to be there forever and forever is settled in heaven. You know when Peter was he saw Jesus Christ transfigured for the voice of God. They are there all that. After it was after the voice of the cloud came through Jesus return to its new appearance yet once again, and they came down from the mouth would have no one except that they recorded it for some scriptures the other the other nine disciples, you know, what it would be really easy to say all you know is that was all we had it was the disciple hallucinating or something crazy bout Elvis, Isaiah chapter 40 verse 8 the grass withereth the flower Fades, but the word of our God shall stand forever. Bible is going to stand forever going to laugh indoors.

You know, we have this more sure word of Prophecy. You don't know how to say in in 2nd Peter verse 1 and 2 review. Well that you take heed as unto a wife that sound in a dark place. And I thought about that. I thought if you're working on the machine boy, you know, I had had that little light on my phone with you know, maybe if I'm looking at it might seem right but or when I turn it around and find it where I need to see it and I'll take my other flashlight. I could you know this difference not really rice not still not very clear. I did not take my other flashlight and I could really hone in on it and get it real clear to see it from a long ways away. But you know that is really clear. And that's almost like the comparison that he's making Jersey. Hey, you know what? I had a song, please Christ have figured. I heard the voice that I knew I can see who I care but compared to the other light compared to the scriptures that we have. Description so much over powering it so much more brighter and clearer. We have a more sure word of Prophecy you well that you take you to or I took you to the first light I couldn't see anything, but when I was on that we need to take to the water God your old self. Ravenna me a video of water not to do or he is lying to a man holding his natural face and he was Are you still looking into the perfect law of Liberty and continuous tearing up here, but I do other one.

We need to take heed to the ward of God. We need to pay attention to it and to do it. Horse, we sings at the old the song You're the wise man built his house upon the rock. I know he built it on this and what is that all about what we go back and read the scriptures in Matthew the foolish man who built his house on the water was the man who pulled the water God.

Colors, that would be wise not just accurate. I do also there have to be on to it. It would be awfully foolish to for someone to come into a dark room with a table there. No, I don't really think maybe maybe maybe the lights maybe I'm not seeing it incorrectly and they don't take heed to what they see. They don't do something about what they see in the foolish man, who hears the word of God and does it take he to it. You looked at himself in the mirror. On my way.

But that's what we do when we don't obey the word of God when we don't apply the word of God to our lives and we're just like that that one is there.

That's what we do when the holy spirit says. Hey you need to get this right now. I really know I do what I'm sorry. But we don't think we don't do something about what the Lord has shown score. Just like the foolish man.

There isn't an Lux chopsticks. Universal 47 system who's coming to me and he laid the foundation on the Rock and when the Florida road Street and speed in the house, it could not think it was founded. But you not hear it. I'm through with not is Like a Man Without a foundation built his house upon the Earth against which the streams to be fishing with me immediately if a house was great. It was great. Why because he didn't have the foundation. He didn't decide he said he didn't say how you know, I don't really need to planted firmly. I don't really need you to do this.

When I was growing up. Some of us to old would remember that 1994 earthquake in Northridge, California. We're very personal because I grew up very close to Northridge. And I remember the next day we thankfully our cost and it suffered terrible damage. So we got in the car and you can see the damage you can see where the houses that didn't have a firm foundation. You could see you without the house fell down. We could go to the epicenter there in Northridge store and we have three floors while after the earthquake. You can look right through it all centered at class the floor that falling why well, there was a problem with the foundation and it wasn't really designed to withstand that kind of earthquake. Is very important to have a good foundation?

In the foundation that we have is the word of God. It is a more true or the prophet Posse. Where to EV well if you take us to a light that shineth in a dark place until the day is gone and the day star arise in your hearts. Working at night. The day Dawn is a great thing for me because that means I'm about to go home already more. Even even this morning. I remember I was I was going into the office and I looked out the window and it's the end of the day and I want to see the light come out like it's on it's time to go home. Dawn of the day star arise in your heart.

Jesus said in John chapter 8 verses I'm saying I am the light of the world. He not following me. So I'm not lock the door opening the light of Life. He's the light of the world that he's lighting keeps showing the way and when we walk in here, we're not going to walk until we're not going to be not going to be having difficulty see.

You need to take heed until the day. They throw rice in our hearts. He decided Gone chapter 12 since I am I income a light unto the world who so believed in me. Shall not abide in darkness.

Couple months ago when I arrive at work for whatever reason they're having some trouble with the the lights in the parking lot. I know it's very dangerous to your Darkness because they didn't have the lights. But we have the light of the world that lights the world for us so that we don't have to walk in that door. Now that the lights are all finally fixed. So careful. As we once were we can walk a little more safely because we know that we can be seeing and we can see others and we don't have to worry about it. You need to take heed to the light until the days on in the day star arise in your hearts. Jesus is referred to as the Daystar. Is that numbers that's 24 says cuz I shall see him but now I Behold Him not nice though. Com a star out of Jacob and I stopped her fell right out of his field that has arisen through it later on in Revelation at the end of you these things in Turkish. I am the root and offspring of David the bright and Morning Star. He's the bright and Morning Star is by him that that rises We Trust Christ. He is our savior.

Because we have a more sure word of Prophecy where until you get well that you think he has a wife that kind of did a dark place until the day Dawn and knowing thrift stores that no prophecy is a private interpretation. You know, there's no part of the scriptures that has some secret meeting that has some meaning that can't be known. That's this all you know. This is only for a select group of people. Part of why we say when they're common reading of scripture makes sense. See why because it's not of any private interpretation finding themselves. Involved in developing heresy developing things that aren't true.

Why because they didn't check you see even this verse?

They came and decided they had that they needed to find something deeper.

the Bible tells us

Deuteronomy chapter 30 says go up to heaven and bring it on to us that we might hear it and do it for us that we may hear it and do it and it's very nice to be a mouth.

Water God was hidden from them and wasn't in heaven where they needed someone to go up there and bring it down to the water God and the Holy Spirit.

When was studying is worth?

But we need to take him to it. Not of any private interpretation not something Secret.

Bible tells us Again, Romans 10 verse 6 is what the rights to this Faith speaking this why, who shall descend into the deep that is to bring Christ again from the dead or what's the water's not the one effect. I was speaking with one of my coworkers. Well, you know. The Old Testament, you know, what is all about work? Then they will know was it because it was all about work. How was I was Abraham. And I mentioned even this passage yet. He was saved enrollment. Why because he believed God.

Horse know that I have to rethink that I'm going on there.

It was by faith Abraham believed because there was no law. I wasn't by the work through the wall that people were saying it was by faith and it was the face of God is very nice the Warriors 9

that is the word of faith. Scriptures, they don't have a secret interpretation that well, you know only a select group of people test to know this and know the word of God is opening its really want to study we can all study the word of God. He led by his. Holy spirit only one spirit.

Knowing this that no prophecy is a any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not no time by the will of man, but holy man of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. It wasn't the will of man that said all you don't we need to we need to come up with something. We need to do something to maybe inspire people to live good lives or have a good more income by the will of God will a man but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost The Bible tells us in 2nd Timothy 3:16 that all scripture is given by inspiration of God struction in righteousness. It was given by the inspiration of God. It didn't come by me and it wasn't man's cleverness. The think that way I could even develop something like the Bible where it all 66 books over 1500. It's not one contradiction. There's not one error.

Just try to fly to Vegas and you'll be gone, right? Will you know? Didn't have to do that. Certainly, even after 20-30 minutes and then it went away and we had to ride it what it was we don't have different opinions different parts of it and there would be conference. They want a degree in yet here. We have the scriptures that agree man could come up with that. Not even a group with me. All scripture is given by

Bible 1st Thessalonians chapter 2 But this cost also thank we Gods without ceasing because when you receive the word of God, we can charter bus you see that has the water man, but I was it isn't true the word of God, which is practically work is also in you that believe 1st Thessalonians 2:13 talk is that I didn't wasn't true the water God. It wasn't something that they had developed something a man has had together to make people believe this one.

the scripture the soft really provide the greatest proof that it is from God to think that any man would could write this all the faults of man. And yes, I see God work through those phone through those mistakes. To see your holiday fling about his glory and his good. Certainly you think about Peter in this was developed by the apostles? Not sure they would be several times. We need to clue that think about this. David you know, I know I'm really needs to be in there. If you want to talk about all the all the teams in the difficult things that they had to work through.

Sometimes with with missionaries and you know, I'm struggling with with discouragement. I'm struggling in this funeral then I've been working on this and now I am but I'm really discouraged because this is not and I have trusted you with this. I hear about all the difficulties in the complaint. And all the problems and yet would have got to see that these people were just now. But they were only men that that they had problems at you know, they didn't always get it, right. That they had difficulties.

By the will of men certainly want to skip over those but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. These men will move by the Holy Ghost. They weren't got back to that much said all scripture is given by inspiration of God.

The Bible has several times that we here. We read and God spake and God. Just say it the Lord. These holy men of God. They were moved by the Holy Ghost God spoke to them and they only recorded for what God spoke. over in Revelation Chapter one one of my favorite things is 3 to style test the revelation of dawn Revelation chapter 1 the revelation of Jesus Christ with God need with him someone to service these things from God they want and design. They were the word of God coming directly from God in Exodus 6. I said steak.

Genesis chapter 8 and God spake unto Noah in Genesis 31 in the angel of the Lord spake unto me a dream saying Jacob. You said you were mine. Austin the scriptures we here in God's faith and God said lost saith the Lord. This was the word of God. This is the water down. Wasn't designed by man. It wasn't developed by people who wanted to trick and deceive. Was given to us by God. If it was developed by men. They wouldn't be a problem. To take he to it. It wouldn't be a problem say where are you know, that's good information. And not do anything about it, but because it is from God. Because we're going to stand before that one day you will be our judge. Then it is wise and it would be good for us to take heed to his word of God and not to be like a foolish man who built the house with no Foundation boy ones travels, when the storms arrive is earthquake strike.

water God will not see ourselves.

We can confess to him. I'll tell us if we confess our sins faithful and just to forgive us to the water. God will change your life so that it lines up with the word of God.

They will not like that men will hold himself in the glasses. I want to see that. How's the way keeps going? But would you be watching me and hold himself fix what needs to be on you? What needs to be taken care of solid foundation?
