WEBVTT

00:07.886 --> 00:12.106
Isaiah 54:9-10

00:12.106 --> 00:13.225
for this is like the

00:13.225 --> 00:14.355
days of Noah to me

00:14.355 --> 00:15.685
when I swore that the waters

00:15.685 --> 00:17.045
of Noah would not flood

00:17.045 --> 00:18.195
the earth again

00:18.195 --> 00:19.235
so I have sworn that

00:19.235 --> 00:21.005
I will not be angry with you

00:21.005 --> 00:22.385
nor will I rebuke you

00:22.385 --> 00:24.135
for the mountains may be removed

00:24.135 --> 00:25.365
and the hills may shake

00:25.365 --> 00:26.625
but my loving kindness

00:26.625 --> 00:28.355
will not be removed from you

00:28.355 --> 00:29.765
and my covenant of peace

00:29.765 --> 00:31.125
will not be shaken

00:31.125 --> 00:32.134
says the LORD

00:32.134 --> 00:34.335
who has compassion on you

00:34.335 --> 00:36.035
this is from Isaiah 54

00:36.035 --> 00:37.405
do you know who Isaiah 54

00:37.405 --> 00:38.535
is written to?

00:38.535 --> 00:39.595
it's written to people

00:39.595 --> 00:41.805
who have received Isaiah 53

00:41.805 --> 00:43.675
what's Isaiah 53 about?

00:43.675 --> 00:45.355
it's about Jesus

00:45.355 --> 00:46.725
Yeshua the messiah

00:46.725 --> 00:47.785
coming, dying

00:47.785 --> 00:49.485
bearing our transgressions

00:49.485 --> 00:50.625
being pierced through

00:50.625 --> 00:52.175
crushed for our iniquities

00:52.175 --> 00:53.475
by His stripes we're healed

00:53.475 --> 00:55.235
this is Isaiah 53

00:55.235 --> 00:56.795
incredible promises

00:56.795 --> 00:58.175
of the new covenant

00:58.175 --> 00:59.875
Isaiah 54 is then written

00:59.875 --> 01:01.365
right after 53

01:01.365 --> 01:02.885
that is to those of us

01:02.885 --> 01:04.791
who have entered into that covenant

01:04.791 --> 01:06.848
been grafted into the covenant

01:06.848 --> 01:08.015
that God made with

01:08.015 --> 01:08.975
the house of Abraham

01:08.975 --> 01:10.175
with the house of Israel

01:10.175 --> 01:11.455
with the house of Judah

01:11.455 --> 01:12.975
and we've been grafted in

01:12.975 --> 01:14.345
many of us gentile believers

01:14.345 --> 01:15.675
grafted into that

01:15.675 --> 01:17.325
here's what's important to know

01:17.325 --> 01:18.445
do you know I find that

01:18.445 --> 01:19.355
one of the prime

01:19.355 --> 01:20.755
strategies of the enemy

01:20.755 --> 01:22.035
is to make people think

01:22.035 --> 01:23.975
that God is random

01:23.975 --> 01:25.295
I hear people say all the time

01:25.295 --> 01:26.665
God moves in strange

01:26.665 --> 01:28.385
and mysterious ways

01:28.385 --> 01:29.465
no He doesn't

01:29.465 --> 01:32.275
God moves 100% in accordance

01:32.275 --> 01:33.345
with His word

01:33.345 --> 01:35.108
if you want to know what God will do

01:35.108 --> 01:36.425
just read His word

01:36.425 --> 01:38.345
all the time 100%

01:38.345 --> 01:39.965
God will act according

01:39.965 --> 01:41.175
to His character

01:41.175 --> 01:42.955
which is 100% consistant

01:42.955 --> 01:44.155
with His word

01:44.155 --> 01:45.955
so God will always do

01:45.955 --> 01:48.495
exactly what He said He would do

01:48.495 --> 01:50.295
now here's an interesting passage

01:50.295 --> 01:51.825
where the prophet says

01:51.825 --> 01:54.045
this is like the days of Noah to me

01:54.045 --> 01:54.995
this what?

01:54.995 --> 01:56.155
this new covenant

01:56.155 --> 01:57.545
that was just described

01:57.545 --> 01:59.675
when I swore that the waters of Noah

01:59.675 --> 02:01.675
would not flood the earth again

02:01.675 --> 02:04.005
if you hear that a flood is coming

02:04.005 --> 02:05.355
one day there's going to be

02:05.355 --> 02:06.905
a global flood

02:06.905 --> 02:08.495
the polar ice caps are melting

02:08.495 --> 02:10.044
it's going to cover the whole earth

02:10.044 --> 02:11.545
do you know what you can know

02:11.545 --> 02:12.955
that's not from God

02:12.955 --> 02:14.105
how do you know?

02:14.105 --> 02:14.925
some people say

02:14.925 --> 02:16.525
God could be judging the earth

02:16.525 --> 02:17.515
how do you know that's not

02:17.515 --> 02:18.405
God's judgment?

02:18.405 --> 02:19.425
very simple

02:19.425 --> 02:21.825
God told us in Genesis 7

02:21.825 --> 02:23.665
and right here in Isaiah 54

02:23.665 --> 02:25.775
I will never do that again

02:25.775 --> 02:28.025
do you know that's 100% reliable

02:28.025 --> 02:29.595
you could be 100% certain

02:29.595 --> 02:31.445
God will never flood the earth again

02:31.445 --> 02:33.295
if you hear the earth is being flooded

02:33.295 --> 02:34.375
you can know for certain

02:34.375 --> 02:35.535
where did that come from

02:35.535 --> 02:36.405
not from God

02:36.405 --> 02:37.585
that's from the enemy

02:37.585 --> 02:38.645
so what do you do?

02:38.645 --> 02:40.185
stand against it

02:40.185 --> 02:42.305
what you want to do is

02:42.305 --> 02:44.525
implement James 4:7

02:44.525 --> 02:46.215
that says submit yourself to God

02:46.215 --> 02:47.055
resist the devil

02:47.055 --> 02:48.385
and he will flee from you

02:48.385 --> 02:49.015
If you find out

02:49.015 --> 02:50.285
something is from the devil

02:50.285 --> 02:51.135
what do you do?

02:51.135 --> 02:53.215
submit to God and resist it

02:53.215 --> 02:54.545
many people are confused

02:54.545 --> 02:55.465
by circumstances

02:55.465 --> 02:56.645
because they don't actually

02:56.645 --> 02:57.905
know what God said

02:57.905 --> 02:59.765
if you don't know what His word said

02:59.765 --> 03:01.085
then a circumstance occurs

03:01.085 --> 03:02.685
in your life and you don't know

03:02.685 --> 03:03.765
how to interpret it

03:03.765 --> 03:04.495
you don't know

03:04.495 --> 03:05.635
is this from the devil

03:05.635 --> 03:06.625
is this from God

03:06.625 --> 03:07.915
is this just natural

03:07.915 --> 03:09.145
should I receive it

03:09.145 --> 03:10.665
because I don't want to be found

03:10.665 --> 03:11.835
resisting God

03:11.835 --> 03:13.225
if God is the one doing it

03:13.225 --> 03:14.635
or should I resist it because

03:14.635 --> 03:16.385
it's of satan

03:16.385 --> 03:17.915
how do you know the difference

03:17.915 --> 03:18.975
very simple

03:18.975 --> 03:20.835
God will never do what He said

03:20.835 --> 03:22.285
He wouldn't do in His word

03:22.285 --> 03:24.375
and God will do what He said

03:24.375 --> 03:26.245
He would do in His word

03:26.245 --> 03:27.555
and so these things are just

03:27.555 --> 03:28.535
critical to understand

03:28.535 --> 03:30.445
God said here that Yeshua

03:30.445 --> 03:31.395
was pierced through

03:31.395 --> 03:33.075
for your iniquities

03:33.075 --> 03:35.175
so when you've received Yeshua

03:35.175 --> 03:36.265
you've repented

03:36.265 --> 03:37.355
you've asked forgiveness

03:37.355 --> 03:39.625
God will no longer judge you

03:39.625 --> 03:41.025
this is just awesome

03:41.025 --> 03:42.465
it says that right here

03:42.465 --> 03:43.835
my covenant of peace

03:43.835 --> 03:44.845
will not be shaken

03:44.845 --> 03:45.615
so God has made

03:45.615 --> 03:47.145
a covenant of peace with you

03:47.145 --> 03:48.365
it will not be shaken

03:48.365 --> 03:49.145
says the LORD

03:49.145 --> 03:50.965
who has compassion on you

03:50.965 --> 03:52.095
so many people think

03:52.095 --> 03:53.705
God is angry with them

03:53.705 --> 03:54.595
they're just waiting

03:54.595 --> 03:55.775
going through life

03:55.775 --> 03:57.305
for the other shoe to just drop

03:57.305 --> 03:58.355
and crush them

03:58.355 --> 04:00.415
no God's not angry with you

04:00.415 --> 04:01.685
He's not mad at you

04:01.685 --> 04:02.755
He loves you

04:02.755 --> 04:04.195
He has compassion on you

04:04.195 --> 04:05.335
how can you know

04:05.335 --> 04:07.725
it's a covenant promise

04:07.725 --> 04:09.545
so I just encourage you today

04:09.545 --> 04:11.565
receive God's compassion

04:11.565 --> 04:13.415
receive His mercy

04:13.415 --> 04:14.335
if you've had an image

04:14.335 --> 04:15.245
in your mind, maybe you had

04:15.245 --> 04:16.458
an abusive father

04:16.458 --> 04:17.411
that was angry

04:17.411 --> 04:18.161
or an authority

04:18.161 --> 04:18.913
that you grew up with

04:18.913 --> 04:20.954
that was always condemning and blaming

04:20.954 --> 04:21.695
and angry

04:21.695 --> 04:24.155
a mother, a father, or school teacher

04:24.155 --> 04:25.105
a coach

04:25.105 --> 04:26.865
and somehow you got an attitude

04:26.865 --> 04:27.725
on the inside

04:27.725 --> 04:29.265
somebody's always judging me

04:29.265 --> 04:30.425
for everything I do wrong

04:30.425 --> 04:31.415
do you know what?

04:31.415 --> 04:32.755
that's not God

04:32.755 --> 04:34.235
how do you know?

04:34.235 --> 04:35.565
because that's exactly

04:35.565 --> 04:36.645
what He said

04:36.645 --> 04:38.635
He said my peace

04:38.635 --> 04:39.625
my covenant of peace

04:39.625 --> 04:40.615
will not be shaken

04:40.615 --> 04:42.035
says the LORD who has

04:42.035 --> 04:43.905
compassion on you

04:43.905 --> 04:45.875
do you know God loves you

04:45.875 --> 04:47.995
God loves you

04:47.995 --> 04:50.365
today I just feel so impressed

04:50.365 --> 04:52.195
that what the LORD wants to do is

04:52.195 --> 04:54.035
fill you with that feeling

04:54.035 --> 04:55.055
of being loved

04:55.055 --> 04:56.335
so Father I just pray that

04:56.335 --> 04:57.895
for each one of us right now

04:57.895 --> 04:59.745
would you just fill us

04:59.745 --> 05:00.605
with that feeling of

05:00.605 --> 05:02.195
what it really feels like

05:02.195 --> 05:03.435
to be loved

05:03.435 --> 05:04.405
to be valued

05:04.405 --> 05:06.285
to be forgiven

05:06.285 --> 05:08.210
Father thank you for your love

05:08.210 --> 05:09.610
and I just pray

05:09.610 --> 05:11.146
for that covenant of peace

05:11.146 --> 05:12.306
to come upon each one

05:12.306 --> 05:13.536
watching today

05:13.536 --> 05:15.056
in the name of Yeshua

05:15.056 --> 05:16.686
Amen
