"He's Just Around the Corner" | It Will Happen | Pastor Bron Jacobs

[Music] let's let's read this now in concert together first declaration it will happen together today I dedicate myself to learning how to patiently wait on God I will not prioritize the right now over the right thing I apply myself to stillness prayerfulness discipline and trust a value God's work on my character more than I value his work on my career my car my bank account or my love life when there is delay I will wait when it takes longer than I planned I will wait when it doesn't feel good I will wait when I'm tempted to take matters into my own hands I will wait on the Lord because all my needs are on his schedule I can boldly declare that it will happen come on put your hands together bless God for this declaration of faith you may be seated in the presence of the Lord and how appropriate it is that we seize this opportunity here what God has to say to us in regards to it will happen a scripture lesson is lifted from 1st Samuel the thirteenth chapter and I'm going to read in your hearing verses five through verse thirteen it's important that we read this in the New International Version to catch to capture the nuance of the text don't miss this today because what God has to say to us is absolutely pivotal to understanding but the Bible says in 1st Samuel 13 5 through 13 the Philistines a symbol to fight Israel with three thousand chariots six thousand charioteers and soldiers as numerous as the sand on the seashore they went up and camped at McMath of Beth Haven when the Israelites saw that their situation was critical and that their army was hard pressed they hid in caves and thickets among the rocks and in pits and sisters some Hebrews even crossed the Jordan to the Land of GAD and Gilead Saul remained at Gilgal and all the troops with him were quaking with fear he waited seven days the time sent by Samuel but Samuel did not come to Gilgal and Saul's men began to scatter so he said bring me the burnt offering and the fellowship offerings and Saul offered up the burnt offering just as he finished making the offering samuel arrived and saw went out to greet him what have you done asked Samuel Saul replied when I saw that the men were scattering and that you did not come at the set time and that the Philistines were assembling at McMath I thought now the Philistines will come down against me at Gilgal and I have not sought the Lord's favor so I felt compelled to offer the burnt offering you have done a foolish thing Samuel said you have not kept the command the Lord your God gave you if you had he would have established your kingdom over Israel for all time but now your kingdom will not endure the Lord has sought out a man after his own heart and appointed him ruler of his people because you have not kept the Lord's command for the sake of sermonic emphasis let's go back to verse 8 he waited seven days the time said by Samuel but Samuel did not come to Gilgal and Salzman began to scatter so he said bring me the burnt offering and the fellowship offerings and Saul offered up the burnt offering here it is just as he finished making the offering samuel arrived and saw went out to greet him who says amen to the Word of God I want to place a tag on this text and under the unction and the empowerment of the Holy Spirit I want to preach today on the subject he's just around the corner he's just around the corner father now in the name of Jesus into thy hands I commit my spirit Lord we need you today and I feel the weight of this message because the ramifications and the consequences of failing to give you an opportunity to move are vital and so today God for some soul who is waiting in the balance would you teach them today that you're just around the corner so empower us today by your spirit we humbly ask in Jesus name let those who believe say Amen and a man he's just around the corner pasta I've discovered that one of the most successful ploys of the enemy is to cause God's people to give up just before God shows up I dare not suggest that this is the only method of discouragement that Satan uses for human history gives evidence that he has multiple tools in his bag for some he has caused them to lose faith in the process of deliverance for others he's caused them to lose faith while fasting for deliverance some Satan has discouraged so completely that they don't even ask for deliverance but I want to suggest that his most successful tool is to cause Christians to give up just on the brink of their blessing in other words the reason that Satan worked so hard to kill your faith in 2019 is because he knew that your deliverance was coming in 2020 and so he worked hard to get you to give up last year so that you would not experience what God wants to do this year and what's so troubling about this reality is that as we survey the annals of biblical history we discovered that this ploy has worked far too often with God's soldiers was it not the children of Israel who gave up just 12 days before the promised land was it not Lot's wife who turned it to a pillar of salt just steps from the safety of the war or was it not the disciples who after the crucifixion almost gave up on the resurrection he is a master at causing God's people to give up too soon and the reason that he's mastered this art is because Satan knows that waiting on God has a way of changing your faith declaration so that you will start out saying it will happen but you end up saying will it ever happen oh do I have a witness at the house I mean God would I ever receive the blessing God would I ever receive the request God will I ever receive the miracle ah but friend of mine I've stopped by here today to encourage some soul who's been waiting on God because the Holy Ghost told me to tell you not to give up too soon because at the moment you're ready to give up God is ready to show up and I'm preaching this today because there are some people who've come to first church today and you've been waiting on God in the back of your mind come on be honest with me you came to church saying I thought by now Jesus you would have come through for your boy I thought by now Jesus certainly we would have heard from you I mean my friend has been blessed but I'm still waiting my neighbor has heard from God but I'm still stuck the other day my coworker came to work she's not even a Christian talking about she got a breakthrough do I have a witness in the house he has the ability to cause you to give up before God shows up and the reason the devil wants you to believe that Jesus has forgotten about you it's because he knows that there's a case number and it has your name written on it but I just want to remind you today but at the moment you feel that Jesus is 10 years away if you just put your eyes in the faith Ram you will discover that Jesus hallelujah is just around the corner now I understand I knew I was going to get a lot of amens here because we got some super Saints in the house or you never had to wait on God you never had to agonize with God and to prepare God and to plea with God as a matter of fact some of you have that Amazon Prime relationship with God you just send up a blessing on Monday night and then by Tuesday your bubble-wrap blessing is delivered to your front door you never had to agonize over a broken marriage you never had to pray over a wayward child you never had to fast over a terminal disease so I know this sermon series is not for you you can come back next series when the pastor preaches on self-deception but do I have anybody in the house who says no pastor this word is from me because I came to church with more month than money but if Jesus is just around the corner I believe I can make it no pastor I got some co-workers who are for the Devils but I believe I can go to work on Monday morning if Jesus is just around the corner the doctor said my case was incurable but I think I can run on if Jesus is just around the corner and do I have somebody who can testify that just at the time I thought that Jesus had forgotten my number he showed up and he was just around the corner and how many folks know that when Jesus shows up you discover he's a heart fixer in mine regulator you discover he's a Midnight Rider and demon fighter you discovered that he's bread for the hungry and water for the thirsty you discover that he's a mother to the motherless and a father to the fatherless and he's all that and more and first church he's just around the corner [Applause] now you don't have to take my word for it you could just ask Saul in first samuel of the thirteenth chapter the Bible tells us that we now find Israel's King who is basking in the celebratory glow of his emerging leadership while he is witness singular military victories the stability of his kingdom is still threatened by the Philistine army here in verse 5 they have gathered his near me Church they have gathered to attack the Israelites and the Bible says that they have gathered with a large quantity as numerous as the sands on the seashore this would not ordinarily be a problem because Israel's King should rise to the task but the dilemma is that Saul has has faced a credibility hit because of his vacillating character and so his military council has failed him his generals have abandoned him the Bible says that some soldiers have even crossed the Jordan River and gone back home you know as bad when soldiers on the penalty of death choose to go back home rather than fight but the Bible tells us stay with me that in spite of these grave circumstances that Saul does not abandon his post why because the Bible confirms in 1st Samuel 13 8 that samuel the prophet Samuel told Saul I know it looks bad now I know things are troublesome now but just hold on in seven days I'm going to come offer a sacrifice on your behalf and so Saul watch this waits patiently for Samuel to come seven days he waited day two day three nobody showed up day four day five he waits patiently nobody shows up day seven the day starts the day ends nobody shows up and he stays there why because he reasons that if Samuel said it then it will happen for seven days he waits but when day seven comes in day seven goals the bible says in 1st Samuel 13 9 that Saul said bring me the burnt offering and the fellowship offering and Saul offered up the burnt offering watch this a task that only the priest should do now hear me first church some people have read this text and concluded that Saul's problem was that he did not wait on Samuel but that's not true I just read you a passage of scripture that said for seven days Saul waited patiently for Samuel to come so the text unveils that saws problem is not that he didn't wait on Samuel Saul's problem is that he didn't like it when Samuel made him wait and how many folks know there's a difference between waiting on somebody and when somebody makes you wait oh you see you know what I'm talking about and you don't even realize them because you told your friend that I will you can ride with me out of town just meet me at the house at 9:30 and even though you finished packing early you don't mind waiting because you have already established a time but the problem now is it's 11 o'clock Joker ain't called he said no text message he said no smoke signal the Spirit is saying be patient but the flesh is telling them you make them take the grain out and at that moment you realize there's a difference between waiting on somebody and somebody making you itch or do our witness in the house and brothers and sisters I'm convinced that we have identified a problem in the body of Christ because the truth of the matter is most of us don't mind waiting on God but we have a problem when God makes us wait today we don't have a problem waiting if we know the timetable but when god goes past the timetable we don't like waiting on God are you hearing me today okay let me help you then we don't mind waiting on God to get married until we finish college I mean that's just a reasonable time expectation and so God I don't mind waiting on you until college is over but the problem now is that you've been out of college 20 years and you still ain't found your boo thing and now you're saying god I realize if I didn't mind waiting on you but I don't like it when you make me wait okay let me help you you don't mind waiting to get your promotion until you receive your master's degree after all that's company policy you can't elevate into your get your degree but the problem now is you had your masters for 10 years been passed over five times and now the issue is you're not waiting on God now God is making you wait and I'm convinced but beloved today that the Bible tells us at this time that this is the real test of the Christian faith what do you do not when you wait on God but when God makes you wait and what the Bible says watch this that this is a Saul's dilemma for in 1st Samuel 1310 the Bible says that saw thought that that Sarah had forgotten about him he thought that he had abandoned him and so the text says that saw sent up the birth offering and watch this first samuel 1310 just as he finished making the offering the text says that samuel arrived in other words saw thought that Samuel had forgotten about him Saul thought that Samuel had abandoned him Saul thought that he would not be delivered but what Saul didn't realize is at the moment he was being disobedient that Samuel was just around the corner and all I'm trying to tell somebody today is what's the reason you should not give up why is it you should keep on praying why is it that you should hold on it's because the moment you feel that Jesus is ten years away the fact is that Jesus is just around the corner of him for some of you this sermon not gonna resonate because Jesus has already come through for you you've already run your victory lap you've already had your praise party you've already popped your Martin letting so I get it but the fact is that some of us are standing between intercession and celebration and we need to know that sometimes God just wants to know do you believe hallelujah then I'm just around the corner God says don't give up I'm just around the corner in other words either give you the spouse or make you happy without once because I'm just around the corner now to give you the money or show you that I can pay bills without money because I'm just around the corner now to give you the healing or let you laugh in the face of death because I'm just around the corner in other words what you think is over Jesus is just getting started when you think that Jesus is far off he's actually next door would you feel like giving up Jesus starts showing up and when Jesus starts showing out do I have a witness today that cancer starts to get healed when Jesus stops to show our credit scores are changed when Jesus starts to show up radical children come home when Jesus starts to show up marriages are restored when Jesus shows how addictions are broken and when he shows up you discovered that not only is he here but Jesus is just around the corner he's just around the corner and I want to suggest today here a church I'll give you just three points about out of your way that if you believe and if you allow faith to cling to the truth that Jesus is just around the corner first he will help you avoid being discouraged by prominent departures folks are I've learned a long time ago that wow we should love people do I have a witness in the house to know that you should not put too much confidence in people come on y'all don't don't leave me by myself now I'm saying that we should love people but but don't put too much confidence in people because I don't care how nice they are how friendly they are the fact is we all have feet of clay and people will let you down ah but the good news of the text is that Jesus wants to share with us that God's purpose for your life is too important to be derailed by people so that God says when people leave Jesus shows up you don't have to take my word for this right in the text watch this this is the lesson that God wanted Samuel to learn saw to learn but unfortunately he never learned it put first Samuel 13 8 on the screen that watch this the Bible says that when Saul tried to explain to Samuel why he disobeyed sauce primary excuse was that he disobeyed watch this but in seven days Tom said by Gilgal but salmon did not come to Gilgal and sauce men began to scatter not now wait don't know miss this I just told you that the military council has lost confidence in him his top generals have abandon him his prized soldiers have crossed the Jordan this is a national crisis and the text implies that the reason that these departures broke Saul's courage is because he thought that his strength came from the army but in fact his strength actually came from the Lord and this today when you fail to recognize that Jesus is just around the corner you start to put more confidence in people that you put in God you start to put confidence in the boss when it was the Lord who gave you the promotion you start to put confidence in the doctor when it was the Lord who healed you you start to put confidence in the mortgage company when it was God who fix your brokerage come on and say Amen you start to put confidence in your intellect when it was the Lord that got you through school and as sad to report that sometimes we are just like Saul placing more confidence in men than we do in God this is why it always concerns me when I hear those who are attempting to rise up with political clout in their organizations tell me that it's not what you know it's who you know and see the thing is the truth of the matter is that's not a bad statement if you properly identified your home because if you're who is your boss how many folks know he'll let you down if you're who is your free and how many folks know they may stab me in the back if you're who is your coworker they may not come through ah but if you're who is the one who spoke a word and call whorls into existence if you're who is the one who spoke to water at a wedding and turned it into sparkling wine if you're who is the one who died on Friday and rose on Sunday I agree it's not what you know haha it's who you know and I see some of y'all still don't look so let me help you this it was food that woke you up this morning huh it was food that started you on your way it was food that put clapping in your hands and who they put stop it in your feet it was food that kept you alive on the highway anybody know who is Jesus and Jesus is the city - now this is what a precious sister told me was a member of a church I pastor husband walked out on her she was devastated by him but in spite of that she kept on coming to church she came to church and when the praise team was was lifting up hands she was lifting up hands she came to church and when when the pastor was preaching she was shouting amen and folks around here were wondering how in the world do you get this courage where do you get this strength where do you get the substance from and when you have the courage to ask her she would tell you that the only way I'm able to get the courage is because I realized that when my husband started hanging out on the corner that Jesus was just around the corner him and if Jesus is around the corner I can make it all right do I have anybody in the building who can say listen I know that when men walk out with my family walks out if my husband walks out as long as I have King Jesus I don't need nobody else in fact I believe some of y'all came to church this morning saying all I need is Jesus the Alyssa you came to church today and you don't need to praise team to prime you up you don't need to cry to senior best selection your favorite pastor not even preaching but you've got the spirit of Jesus in the building have you said as long as Jesus is here hey so the text is clear he will keep you in the midst of prominent departures there's one more thing I believe that when faith grabs hold of the fact that Jesus is just around the corner the text is clear that he will help you avoid the pitfalls of overthinking let that sink in for a while I've discovered that there's something about waiting on God that makes us susceptible to overthinking I don't know what it is but but when you have to wait are insecure be honest our insecurities rise to the surface so that so that watch this we start thinking people are talking about us and they're not even thinking about us we start to think people are plotting against us and they're trying to help us we start to consider options that months ago we wouldn't even look at come on you know don't leave me by myself but one of the benefits of knowing that Jesus is just around the corner is that you don't have to rely on your thoughts you can rely on his thoughts oh it's right in the text right in the text don't believe me and this was sauce problem watch this because at the time when Saul should have been rehearsing the affirmations of Scripture and rehearsing the promises from God's Word the Bible says that sauce takes this first Samuel 13 11 and 12 now folks we're gonna read them I want you to see this today he says when I saw that the men were scattering and that you did not come at the set time and that the Philistines were assembling at mcmanus I thought now the Philistines will come down against me at Gilgal and I've not sought the Lord's favor now wait a minute it's important to view this statement in context saws in trouble and he does need a thoughtful solution so he starts to think about ways to extract himself but here's the issue God didn't ask saw to think his way out of this problem he asked him to believe his way out of this problem and because saw trust his thoughts he now falls victim to overthinking and folks let's be honest sometimes when you're waiting on God you're not always thinking straight oh that's the idea see I see the balcony come on now folks on the floor you hear anybody in the balcony know that sometimes when you're waiting on God sometimes my grandmother said my think I'm thing comes not working oh now I've seen folks who are waiting on God for financial blessing and all of a sudden they start talking about playing the lottery then it comes to the pastor trying to justify Doyle passed out I give you ten percent I then ten percent to the building fund don't play with me now I see folks get desperate looking for a promotion and they start compromising values that they've held for twenty years I've seen folks watch this get desperate looking for a spouse and they start dating people three months ago they wouldn't look at or don't leave me by myself it's because when you're waiting on God the enemy has a way of messing with your mind and I believe this is the reason why the wisest man on the planet Solomon gave us the promise in proverbs 3:5 and 6 which there's trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not on our own understanding it's because Solomon understood that there's some times when you're waiting on God that you can trust your own understanding and so man this is a good place to praise them because Solomon just told us that when you can't trust your thoughts you can trust God's thoughts all folks do I have anybody here today who's grateful that when you can't trust your thoughts you can trust God's thoughts when you can't figure it out God says let me figure it out God says stop trying to figure out how to pay your bills stop trying to figure out how to save your child stop trying to figure out how to save your marriage stop trying to figure out how to secure a promotion stop trying to figure out who your spouse would be Bible says to let God decide because you can't always trust your thoughts and watch this here's some more and when you let God figure it out here's some point your some point god watch this will keep you from placing confidence and things you really don't need oh you don't believe me it's probably the text about this first entry 13 12 he says I thought now the Philistines will come down against me at Gilgal and I have not sought the Lord's favor so I felt to offer the burnt offering now saw thought that in order to extract himself he needed a burnt offering to God but what he really needed was complete trust if not and so he lost his anointing chasing after things he really didn't need or don't you lease all by himself though because in fact is Belov him that I just want to pause God today and you ought to thank God today for the truth of the matter is that the only reason that many of us are alive today is because Jesus kept us from some stock we really didn't need oh come on now you thought you needed the job until everybody in that department got laid off for him you thought you needed the car until it turned out to be a limit you thought you needed the house into everybody in the neighborhood lost their equity you thought you needed the boyfriend or the girlfriend until you found out they were crazy come on you thought you needed the money until you found out that when you get money everybody wants your money I believe today because some of you are having flashbacks right now the only reason that I'm alive today is because God kept me from some stuff but I thought I need it I dodged a bullet at the club because I thought I needed the club I came a close call but but God kept me thank you Jesus and when you look back over your life you want to just stay God that he kept you from some stuff that you really did not need here it is I believe there's one more point the detects unveils today for when you truly believe that Jesus is around the corner he will help you avoid folly and foolishness okay let me help you this way some of the old-school folks you may appreciate this in 1973 there was a musical group called the main ingredient you were nominated for Grammy in the army category for the hit song everybody played oh now fast I think we need to do a conversion check right about now we need it not up I thought you all would not know the lyrics but but you know the lyrics everybody plays a fool no exception [Applause] yeah we take enroll we take it roll we take it roll oh yeah and what main ingredient is trying to communicate is that life has a way of causing us to make some foolish decisions oh don't play with me now I don't care how spiritual you are I don't care how holy you are you let the right temptation come along oh you you you let the right enticement come along and you'll find yourself doing some foolish things but I believe that the passage is designed to teach us watch this but if you believe that Jesus is around the corner he'll keep you from doing some foolish things right in the text watch this unfortunately this counsel has come too late for King Saul for the Bible says that when Samuel responds to the Kings hasty and presumptive behavior he says in 1st Samuel 13 and verse 13 you have done a foolish thing now it's easy to point our accusatory finger at Saul and castigate him for his actions but if the truth be told and our lives could be played back on YouTube with no edit block out or cut and paste the fact is the Holy Ghost could point his finger at some of us and say there are some times in your life but you have done some foolish things oh come on down you told somebody off felt good when you said it felt horrible when you thought about it and when you got home you said Lord I've done a foolish thing come on now you went out on the day bel Biv DeVoe told you she was poisoned and when you got home and escaped you realize I did a foolish thing you went to the club and try to camouflage by dancing harder than anybody else and when you made it out when the bullets started flying you realize I've done a foolish thing do I hear somebody and I don't know what it is about the baptism orders that gives us a case of convenient amnesia we get in the water and forget that at one time in our lives we had issues we are a hot mess we made some mistakes we made some mishaps and this is why you need some friends in your life who knew you back when who pour you off your high horse when you become that Ellen White quoting granola-eating Bible total Christian who fails to recognize that there are some times in your life when you did some foolish things and about what the end of the story watch this we all be in trouble but do I have anybody here who's grateful that when you did some foolish things you met a faithful God God said I'm just around the corner him and you see always right here it always gets the quiet at this section because you always have a few Sadducees in the house who says oh no passes that was not me I'm sorry I may have done something irresponsible but never anything foolish I've never done something ill time but never anything foolish I may have done something inconvenient but never anything foolish but the problem is that God knows something about you that's true that we just can't prove he knows you may have never never done anything foolish but you thought about it oh yeah you didn't drink at the party but you thought about it you didn't smoke reefer but you thought about it you didn't smoke weed but you thought about it you weren't unfaithful but you thought about it you get lie but you thought about it you didn't sow your Wild Oats but you didn't linger but you thought about it and watch this and the blessing of Jesus being just around the corner is that he's so close he can snatch you from stuff you're not about [Applause] folks I don't know about you but I'm grateful the reason I'm here today is because the Lord snatch reversible stuff I thought about sharing he snapped me from some things I was thinking about anybody grateful watch this the guy were not only I come to you when you need them but it come to you when you don't even realize you need a keep you from doing some foolish things I won't tell all my business but I will confess watch this don't worry don't get nervous have discretion I got married at 33 years old now that's about the average time now but when you're at happiness minister that's a lifetime in the first few years it was cool no problem but how many folks know after a while that thing gets old got tired of being in Timbuktu coming home to a cold house that's hot I'm going to camp meeting by myself got tired of my mama walking me down the ordination now come on as a man and up and I praise God watch this I praise God I praise God then while single I didn't do anything foolish but I thought about because watch this watch this hear me hear me because because I didn't mind waiting on God for three years but after year three God was making me wait let me say I'm gonna make you wait 26 27 to 28 I'm gonna make you wait 30 31 and 32 and the matter about the time I was getting discipline say God you got to fix this then God said I want to see how you respond him when you believe that it will happen and right about that time April 26 2008 10:45 new life SDA church Berrien Springs Michigan right after Sabbath school right before divine worship somewhere between before when the roll is called up yonder en whoa Ashley s to make hot and I heard the Lord say stop tied up the head and say boy I told you I was just around the corner and I'm trying to curse somebody today to let you know that he may not come when you're warning [Applause] but he's right on time he's right on time I'm gonna share one more thing that I'm done I believe that this word is the word particularly for seventh-day Adventist Christians because the fact he is beloved that this is the lesson that Jesus wanted our early pioneers to learn because in fact in October 22nd 1844 the Adventists thought that Jesus was coming like Saul they had an exact date when deliverance would come and because they knew exactly when he would come they had no problem waiting on Jesus they sold their businesses and homes and waited on Jesus they cashed in their bonds and waited on Jesus but October 22nd came and left and when Jesus didn't show Adventist realized they were no longer waiting on Jesus now Jesus was making us wait and for 150 160 170 plus years we have been waiting on Jesus and that's be honest this be honest beloved sometimes it gets a little discouraging sometimes we don't know what to do sometimes we are not sure how God's gonna show up we get tired of seeing kids trafficked for exploitation bombs going off in the street wars and rumors of wars and earthquakes in diverse places and every now and then I get a little discouraged beloved and I find myself saying God how can we make it but God said son here's how you're making remind yourself that in spite of your discouragement that Jesus is just around the corner a [Applause] friend of mine we got to believe that today and I've come to encourage somebody in the Lord because the Bible is clear he may not come when you want him to come but the Lord is always on time and if you believe this truth watch this if you believe this truth number one you'll keep you when they are prominent departures I hear me today if you truly believe it if you truly believe it he will keep you from doing some foolish things if you truly believe it he will keep you from chasing things you really don't need if you truly believe it he'll show up just on time father in the name of Jesus as we make this appeal I need you to talk to somebody here today somebody came to church they're discouraged became the church needing God in Lord I'm asking that the power of the Holy Spirit would speak to them in Jesus name Amen here's my field here's my field today and I wrote this down because I didn't want the message to be lost in translation and in just a few moments I'm going to call everybody who if you fall underneath either one of these three categories I'm going to invite you to come down as we pray this prayer of consecration and dedication I believe first that God is calling some person today to resurrect a prayer a petition or a dream that you stopped praying for because you now realize that Jesus is just around the corner yeah you you you stop praying for it you gave up hope you gave up faith but today God says I want you to resurrect that prayer and I want you to pray with faith and with power and with boldness if that's you then in just a few moments you can come if you can even even come down that shoe but number two I believe God is calling for some person to stop meditating and rehearsing on your thoughts and apprehensions and start meditating on and rehearsing God's Word and his promises you can think yourself out of a blessing but God says today no I want you to trust my word and finally he's calling for some person to pray to the Lord that he would keep you from doing something foolish because in spite of what Satan is telling you it will happen now I don't know what category you fall in right now but would you slide out of your seat come on down come on down let's pray this prayer all over this even in the balcony come down the Lord sees the Lord hears all over this place he sees he hears Oh hallelujah thank you Jesus you gotta believe it it will happy that's exactly what Saul should have learned so don't worry about it it will happen while you can see yourself leaving now all over this place there's somebody who's still coming cuz you're just where Saul was you're right there and you're upset because you feel that you and God had an agreement and God didn't come through on his end of the bargain you are tempted to burn sacrifices on your own but do you hear the Lord speaking to you today saying no my child don't burn the offerings because Jesus is just around
