And we can actually look out there and see the work of the Lord.

The title to today's lesson is through faith comes fear and obedience. Through faith come fear and obedience. I had did a lesson I had did this lesson probably a couple years ago, but I kind of went through and we worked it a little bit. Yes.

But uh the Lord had it on my mind to do this lesson because my biggest thing is I've been I've been rolling through and I've been seeing our Hebrew brothers, especially the brothers in IYC or the brothers that's uh what's the other brothers? The ISUPK brothers. the brothers with the Ninja Turtle suits on and the guys that be out there and they be arguing, you know, they might they might they might hit people with a few

cuss words. But it it dawned on me to do this lesson because it says through faith comes fear and obedience. Because the first thing is this, people don't really know the living God, right? They really do not know him. Because if you did know him, our next thing is this. If you knew him, scared of him. And if you're not scared of him, you not be obedient to him.

Because as I look around, I see what's going on. Like, ain't no way. Ain't no way you reading about the same God I'm reading about. Ain't no way you fear the same God I fear. And the way you acting out here towards the people. Yes, sir. We supposed to be the priest. It's our job to bring all of the sons of Adam back them away. these brothers is running them away. So I decided to put this lesson together.

It says through faith comes fear and obedience obedience. Because this is the thing, do you do you have faith in God? And if you do have faith in God, what God fear that God? And if you do fear him, do you fear him to be obedient unto death to that person, to that God that you serve? Yeah. So without further ado, we going to get into the lesson. We going to break it all down. We going to talk about faith.

We going to talk about the fear. And we going to talk about being obedient to none other than the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Yes. So without further ado, let's start this off in Isaiah the 53rd chapter. Cuz don't nobody really know who the living God really is? Cuz as I look around and see what's going on, I'm like, "No, y'all can't know who he is." You know how Sally putting her dress on. She's going to She about to put her dress on.

She got her heels on. She's ready for Sunday church. She's ready. So my thing is, do our people really know who God really is? It's a scary thing. Isaiah 53. We going to pick Isaiah 53 and we going to pick it up at verse one. Isaiah 53 and we going to pick it up at first verse one. When you get there, Israel, go ahead and read. Who have believed our report?

See, that's what Isaiah said. He said, "Who have believed our report?" Faith is belief. That's why it says through faith comes fear and obedience. Through faith through your belief. That's why Isaiah said, "Who has believed our report?" Who going to believe it? Go ahead. Israel, to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? And who's the arm of the Lord? That's Jesus. He may who Jesus revealed to cuz you cuz as you as I'm looking around, he ain't revealed to the world.

He ain't revealed to the world. Cuz if he will, but everybody know who he is. Cuz everybody walk around with a Roman death cross symbol on the on only on as as as a necklace. So everybody know, everybody know Jesus died on the cross, but do you know who he is? Right. He said, "Who have believed our report? And to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?" Go ahead. Israel.

For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant. Go ahead. And as a root out of a dry ground, go ahead. He have no form noriness. And when we shall see him, there is no that we desire him. See, when the Lord came the world to him the mission to die for the sins of the people, he ain't come like no pretty boy. So all the girls wasn't going to be running up on him. He wasn't nothing to be desired. Right. Go ahead. Israel.

Three. He is despised and rejected of men. He is despised and he was rejected of men. Go ahead. A man of sorrow. Uhhuh. And acquainted with grief. See, everybody always saying Jesus Jesus evil. And I'm really kind of laying back on what ODA did last week. Everybody call on the name. But do you really know who he is? Do you know he was rejected and despised of men? He go acquainted with he was acquainted with greed. Go ahead. As it were our face from him.

Uhhuh. He was despised and we esteemed him not. Despised and we esteemed him not. Go ahead. Surely he have borne our carried our sorrow. Nobody know who this God is. They don't know this. This the living God right here. This is none other than Jesus. This who we serve. Yes, sir. That's why I ask people, who really know the living God? Who we know him? Have borne our grief. He have carried our roles. Even the sorrow, even the sorrows of some people that wasn't going to serve him. That's right. Go ahead. Israel.

Yes, we did esteem him stricken. Smitten of God. He was smitten of God and was Go ahead. But he was for our transgressions. He was bruised for our iniquities. He was bruised for our iniquities. Go ahead. The chastisement of our peace was upon him. Go ahead. And with his stripes, we are healed. And that's what healed us. That's we run the race again. Yes, sir. Because at first, it don't matter how much you ran, you wasn't going to get nowhere.

But now we can run to the finish line again. And that finish line is that crown of salvation. Yes, sir. We can run that. We can run that. We all have went astray. That's why we got mercy. We got grace when it come to anybody that's trying to come in this thing. Anybody that's trying to learn this thing, walk in this thing. You got to be patient because we all like sheep. We all went astray. Amen.

Don't sit up here and act like you ain't going straight, like you ain't got no flaws. We all like sheep have gone astray. Go ahead, Israel. We have turned everyone to his own way. Everybody turn they had it going on at a point in time in their life. Yes sir. Everybody thought the decision they was making was the right decisions. Yes sir. Have gone astray. We have turned everyone his oppressed. Go ahead.

He was afflicted by the people he created. Go ahead. Israel that he opened on his mouth. Go ahead. He was brought as a lamb to the slaughter. You know when you taking that animal to the slaughter, he can't tell you no. That's how Jesus was when came to death. He don't slaughter. The lamb don't know he dead until you put until you get the B on. He was like lamb slaughter. Go ahead, Israel.

And as a sheep before her shears is done. Go ahead. So he opened up his mouth. He ain't open up his mouth. Go ahead. Israel. He was taken from prison. Uhhuh. And from judgment. Go ahead. And who shall declare his generation? December 25th. That's a lie. Who shall declare his generation? He wasn't born December the 25th. No sir. All the children were killed that were two years two years and younger. That was around the time Jesus was alive cuz they was looking for Jesus.

So his old generation really got killed. But go ahead, Israel. For he was cut off from all from out of the land of the living. Go ahead. For the transgression of my people was he gohead. He made his grave with the wicked. He made his grave with the wicked and with the rich in his death. And with the rich in his death. Go ahead. Because he has done nobody.

He did nothing wrong. That's what people fail to realize. the living God that we serve. He didn't do nothing wrong. No, sir. Go ahead. Israel. Neither was any deceit in his mouth. And neither any deceit in his mouth. Do y'all know who this is? This is the living God. Yes, sir. Nobody really know him. And that's the saddest thing about the world. Teach, brother. They don't know who he is. Let's go to Isaiah 1. Let's go to Isaiah 1. And the reason why they don't know who he is,

why? Cuz the Bible was taken off the table. Don't nobody read no more. All I got to do is tell you how I feel and that's it. Don't nobody want to read this book no more. Isaiah the first chapter we going to pick it up at verse one. Nobody got a clue on who the real God is. 99 98% who he is. Right. They call on Jesus. They probably got swine in they freezer. They don't really call on. They don't know who he really is.

But we gonna show you who he is today. Isaiah 1. And we gonna pick it up at verse one. When you get there, Israel, go ahead and read [clears throat] the vision of Isaiah the son of Amar. Go ahead. Which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of [clears throat] Judah. Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth, for the Lord has spoken. You said, "I have spoken." Go ahead.

I have nourished and brought up children and they have rebelled against me. See, the book ain't on the table. Nobody really read the book. Wait till tomorrow. You see how fat it is at them churches, but they not reading no book. That's right. They not really telling you nothing. They making you feel good. Playing the tambourine and the drums all in the background and just sending you on out the door, but you leaving with nothing.

If you go to the store, you leave with groceries. Yes. If you go to work, you clock in, you clock back out, you get paid. Yes. Why go to church and you don't learn nothing? How you going to church and you ain't learning nothing? How you calling on Jesus and you don't even know who he is? That behooves me. Lord Jesus, are you Who is he? The next time I hear somebody say that, I'm gonna say, "Who is he? Do

you know him?" Right. Go ahead. Israel three. The ox know of his own. See, the ox know of his own sir. Go ahead, Israel. He as his master's crib. And as he know where his master's crib is, but what about Israel? Go ahead, Israel. But Israel doeth not know. But Israel don't know. Go ahead, Israel. When people do not consider, they don't. That's And that's the thing.

They don't even consider because ain't nobody opening up the book and reading it to them. That's right. You making them feel good. Keep your hope. Hope in what you tell them to keep the faith. Faith in what? He said, "My people did not consider." Go ahead, Israel. All sinful nations. A sinful nation. Go ahead. A people laden with iniquity. Go ahead. A seed of evildoers. Uhhuh. Children that are corruptors. They have forsaken the Lord. They have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger. They are gone away back.

They are gone away back. You got problems in your life. You don't know how to turn to the living God. So you go more into the trouble cuz you don't know. You don't know. Go ahead, Israel. Why should ye be stricken anymore? Uhhuh. Ye will revolt more and more. Go ahead. The whole head is sick and the whole heart faint. And that's us as a nation. The whole head is sick and the whole heart is faint. Verse six, what he saying? Go ahead, Israel.

From the soul of the foot even unto the head, there is no soundness in it. See us as a nation, man, we done. We like a sword that that can't even heal us. You like a broken wound that ain't even getting that ain't that ain't even healing. That's what the Lord compared this nation to. Go ahead, Israel. But wounds and bruises. Uhhuh. And and petrifying swords. That's who we are. Go ahead. They have not been clothed. They have not been closed. Go ahead.

Neither bound up. Neither bound up. Go ahead. Neither multip cuz you ain't got the healer on your side. You ain't got the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. No, sir. So you like a wound that can't even heal cuz you ain't even got your redeemer. Let's go a little to Israel. Let's go to Hosea the 4th chapter. Let's go to Hosea 4. They done took the Bible off. That's

Let's go to Exodus the third chapter. Let's go deal with one of one of my favorites in the Bible. Let's go deal with Moses. Let's go to Exodus 3 cuz we want to show you how Moses faith.

How Moses how Moses grew in faith. When the Lord first came to Moses, the Lord was Moses was like, "Hey, hey, man. Hey, go find something. Go get somebody else to do the job. I ain't the one." But then I'm going show you how Moses faith grew. And Moses, man, Moses gonna be Moses. The Lord called Moses friend. Yes. Moses was a friend to the Lord. Moses was up there in the in the mountain with the Lord 40 days and 40 nights dwelling with him. Yes.

Exodus the third chapter and we going to pick it up at verse one. Exodus 3 and 1. When you get there, Israel, go ahead and read. Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro, his father-in-law, the priest of Midian. And he led the flock to the backside of the desert and came to the mountain of God into Horab. That's why we know just off of this scripture right here, we know

that mount that we know that Mount Horab is in is is in uh is in Midian. We know that. Go ahead. Israel two. And the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush. Uhhuh. And he looked, and behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed. And Moses said, "I will now turn aside and see this great sight while the bush is not burnt." Have you ever looked at something like, "What is going on over there?" You look off like, "Let me let me make sure I I

ain't seeing what I'm what I think I'm seeing." And you look back over there, that's what it is. Go ahead, Israel. Boy, and when the Lord saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush and said, "Moses, Moses." And he said, "Here am I." That's what he said. He said, "Here am I." Go ahead. And he said, "Jaw not nigh

hither. Put off thy shoes from off thy feet. For the place where on thou standest is holy ground." So he told him, he said, "Moses, take off them shoes, man. You standing on holy ground right now." Yes. Take them shoes off. Go ahead, Israel. Six. Moreover, he said, "I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." See, that's the God we serve right now.

Amen. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Go ahead, Israel. And Moses hid his face for he was afraid to look upon God. See, that's what that people got to understand. That was spiritual. He hid his face. He was afraid to look upon God because he was he was he was of sin right now. Yes, sir. He wasn't You You got to think around it right here. And Moses at this time, he wasn't close to the Lord like that. He

wasn't close. So, he said he said uh what verse was that? That was verse six. He said he hid his face because he was afraid to look upon God. Yes. But we gonna show you later on he wasn't afraid to look at it no more. Go ahead. Israel. Seven. And the Lord said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt. Uhhuh. And have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters. For I know their sorrow. Go ahead.

And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians. Go ahead. to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large and a large unto a land flowing with milk and honey. Go ahead. Unto the place of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the and the Parizzites and the Heivites and the Jebusites. Go ahead.

Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel is come unto me. You got to think, man, children of Israel were getting oppressed over there with Pharaoh. They were doing us bad. And and and you got to think your sins can reach up to heaven. The things that the Egyptians did, the Lord started to notice it. And the cry of Israel, he said, "It came unto me." Go ahead, Israel. And I have also seen the oppression.

Where would the Egyptians oppress them? He like, I see what them Egyptians over there doing to y'all, and I'm coming to save y'all. Yes, sir. Like, he gonna come and get us again. He going to come and do it again. Go ahead, Israel. 10. Come now, therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh. Uh, that thou mayest bring forth my people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.

So, now we got to see how Moses trying to play it because the Lord trying to send Pharaoh, I mean, the Lord trying to send Moses to free his people out of the out of the hand of Egypt. Amen. But Moses was a little shaky about it at first. Go ahead. And Moses said unto God, "Who am I going to Pharaoh?" What made you go that I should go say to Pharaoh, Israel, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt? Go ahead.

And he said, "Certainly I will be with thee, and this shall be a token unto thee, that I have sent thee, when thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt. Ye shall serve God upon this mountain." Look, you going to serve me right up on this mountain. Go ahead, Israel. And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, the God of your

fathers have sent me unto you, and say to me, what is his name? What shall I say unto them? He basically saying, man, when they ask me what your name is, what you want me to tell? What he say? Israel. 14 And God said unto Moses, I am that I am. Go ahead. And he said, thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel. He said, that's what I want you to say unto the children of Israel. Yes. So the Lord got a mission for Moses. Now, let's see how this mission goes.

We're going to go to Exodus the 4th chapter. And we going to Yeah. Finish that up. I am have I am have sent me unto you. He said, I want you to tell I am have sent me unto you. Yes, sir. So he presented to him a mission. I want you to go ahead on this mission for me. And he said it's going to be a token between me and you. Yes, sir.

I got you. But we're going to go to Exodus 4 and we going to see how Moses uh dealt with it. Exodus 4 and we going to pick it up everyone. When you get there, go ahead, Israel. And Moses actually said, "But behold, they will not believe me, nor hearken unto my voice, for they will say, the Lord have not appeared unto thee." So you got to think Moses trying to slip his way on out of it. He like, "Man, they ain't even gonna believe me." Go ahead, Israel.

The Lord said unto him, "What is that in thine hand?" And he said, "A rod." And he said, "Cast it on the ground." And he cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent, and Moses fled before it. So, so what the Lord did, the Lord had to pull out a few tools for him like, "Man, let me get let me show this man, let me show this man who I am." Yes.

Go ahead, Israel. forth. And the Lord said unto Moses, "Put forth thine hand, and take it by the tail." And he put forth his hand, and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand, and it be turned back into a rod that was in his hand. So, he's showing him a few things. Let me let me show you. He really showing him his power. Go ahead, Israel.

That they may believe that the Lord God of their fathers, and the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob have appeared before unto thee. Uh-huh. And the Lord said furthermore unto him, "Put now thine hand into thy bosom." So he got another he got another little move he about to show him. He like, "I want you to put your hand into your bosom. Go ahead." And he put his hand into his bosom. Uhhuh.

And when he took it out, behold, his hand was lepous as snow. His hand was white. So let you know Moses wasn't white. Right. Right. Learned something on the way. Learn something. That's a sign right there. He said his hand was lepous as snow. Then what? Go ahead. And he said, "Put thy hand into thy bosom again." "Put thy hand into thy bosom again." Go ahead. And he put his hand into his bosom again.

Because if he was already white and you pulled his hand out and it was leopard, it was lepers white as snow. Like what you doing? What trick? You a You a performed no trick. But now if your hand was my cup and you pull it out and you turning this leopard and snow, you got me. You got me. Amen, brother. He said, "Put his hand into his bosom again." And what happened? Go ahead.

And he plucked it out of his bosom. And behold, it was turned again his other flesh. It turned again as his other flesh. So he knew it came back. It It came back black. Yes, he came back black. Go ahead. Israel eight. And it shall come to pass. If they will not believe thee, neither hearken to the voice of the first sign, that they will believe the voice of the letter sign, then it shall come to pass.

If they would not believe also these two signs, neither hearken to thy voice, that thou shalt take of the water of the river, and pour it upon land, and the water thou taketh out of the river shall become blood unto the dry land. So, so he told, he proposes to I got you. If they don't want to listen to me, I'll do that. So, he telling Moses, all

I need you to do is go handle the mission for me. Yes, sir. I got the rest. What Moses say? Verse 10. Go ahead. And Moses said unto the Lord, "Oh my Lord, I am not eloquent." You're like, "Look, man. I ain't even eloquent. I ain't even eloquent." Right? Go ahead, Israel. Neither here to far, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant. Look, look, he said, since thou has spoken to thy servant, Go ahead.

Lord, you know you don't you might might not want to use me, right? No, my my voice a little messed up a little bit. Go ahead, Israel. 11 And the Lord said unto him, "Who have made man's mouth? Or who maketh the dumb

or deaf or the sick or the blind? Have not I the Lord?" He said, "I'm the one that caused people to to be blind to death." Yes, sir. He really pulled out his wrap sheet on Moses. Go ahead. Now therefore go and I will be with thy mouth and teach thee what thou shalt say. He said look I'mma be with your mouth. Don't worry about your mouth. I'mma be with your mouth. Go ahead. Israel 13. And he said, "Oh my Lord, send I

1:00:11 But now the anger of the Lord got kindled against Moses. Go ahead. And he said, "Go ahead. 1:00:15 Is not Aaron the Levite thy brother." Uhhuh. I know that he can speak well. You know what?
