The bumps are what you do wonderful book from Warren where's Dr. Don's made available to you. Check it out online@twonline.org now. Today's message with Dr. Don Wilton. I don't think that there is anyone who is listening right now that is listening by accident and I want you to open your Bibles to Matthew chapter 6 I'm going to speak to you on the subject. When God speaks and its founding in Matthew chapter 6 and verse nine, Jesus said when you pray this is what you should say this is how you should pray our father in heaven, hallowed be your name.

Your kingdom come, your will be done on this earth just the same as it is done in heaven.

Please father give us this day our daily bread.

And would you be so kind as to forgive us for Allison. Just the same way as we forgive those who have send against us and if we could all ask you this, please prevent us from being laid into temptation, but raw that deliver us from the evil one because everything belongs to you. Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory for ever and forever it's eternal never changed and that's what happened here.

We know we understand the background we get it here was this group of of disciples. These people they were not different in many ways. They lived in a different day and age and they were experienced so much of the same things that we experience, but in a different day and I they had a very interesting to maltose government and back in the day they politics was very true. Maltose it was very threatening.

It was unknowing. It was a perplexing it was almost frightening in many ways. People were losing their lives in their case, they were surrounded by haves and have-nots. They were a lot of poor people.

Lotto will see people and they will. There was a lot of religion, people believed in you name it.

They were very religious people that these people mingling amongst they had their sons and they don't want to do's and they grandchildren. I tell you the other thing they also suffered from all kinds of diseases historians confirm that they had gallbladder problems and prostate problems in cancer problems and they suffered from a lack of sleep all right when you stop anyone locked and I'm sorry I missed whatever it is that you're dealing with right now. And this group of people came to Jesus and they seem to him, Lord, would you teach us how to pray because this group of believers understood that communicating with the one who had made them was of paramount importance.

That's why believe so much in parents swot not in favor of government interference in schools and one could go on. I'm not trying to get political on this because nobody knows a child like the parents to and so it is we had better be very careful.

You had to be very careful because right now you are running your own life the way you see it and you better be very careful and we had better be very careful as a church that we never get to the point where we sit around the table and we decide ever. Because this is God's house. I had beta. Be very careful in my life that I never get to the point at which I say, I've got this thing down because I don't nobody knows me nor loves me like my heavenly father does not absolutely love my wife Karen she's my best friend.

I love her with all of my heart I go to her with with everything. She's my duckling. I wouldn't trade her for all the tea in China. I need to come up with something better than that, but I wouldn't trade her for anything, but she still cannot go to way my heavenly father goes.

This is not the removal. God doesn't say nobody else godly counsel, godly wisdom. The Bible is filled with all of these things. He gives us wisdom. He indwells us by his Spirit. He raises us up.

II pray and I have always prayed that in the privilege of leading you as you pasta that got pray Lord please never please allow me to never let my people down. Please help me to speak with wisdom.

Parents pray that Dunkley give us the right judgment the right way. Where would we be without doctors and nurses and counselors and wonderful teachers. I look at you and I see exceptional teachers in our school systems cultures and let we can go on but watch out some of some of you have gotten so impressed with yourself that you are leaving God out of your life and you are asking for serious trouble in in many ways these disciples. By the way, they prove to us how much they thought of themselves. This was a jolly good bunch of men you just talked with Peter.

He was just too magnificent in his own eyes, to comprehend and these people came to Jesus and I said, Lord, teach us what was it that Jesus said Jesus looked into the face of these people that he loved so dearly and he said I want to teach you something because when you hear what it is that you say to your heavenly father in communication. It's not so much about what you say to him because in the preceding verses he drops a bomb on them. He says it's not what you say to him because he already knows everything that you going to say you can't say anything to God that he doesn't already know it's not about what you say to God, it's about what God needs to say to you, and so he begins to go through this when God speaks because what happens just going to unpack this with if we if we look at what Jesus told them he said to them, when God speaks to you. Number one he activates his authority.

You need to speak to your heavenly father you need to search for him and know him and have intimacy with him and meet with him because when you do, he unleashes his authority. Our father, the one who is on the activates his authority know what kind of authority does God have in our lives in order to on so that you go to understand the authority of God. Many things we can talk about when it comes to God's authority God's authority is inclusive. It's all inclusive God's authority covers all people.

Nobody is an exception.

We live in a non-inclusive society all your where American everybody's included, but our whole world speaks to the non-inclusiveness of our inclusiveness God because he loves us, and because God created all of us in his image. When we tapped him what he is easy. Debates is all inclusive.

These all-inclusive, it's all comprehensive and covers subject every detail you're listening to Dr. Don Wilton our teacher here on the cursing word go way back with the rest of today's message when God speaks in just a moment but he insisted I interrupt to let you know. Red meat is online. Let's connect keyboard to keyboard our website on Margie team The Encouraging Word online.right days if not things return to whatever the new normal. You need to know the praying of the other at 866899 again right now more than ever conversation have someone assist her brother would love to be that 866899 word the phone number 866899967 today's message, not just invite you and me right now to try and come up with something that God doesn't know about that from the throne from ECW's authority through his authority and by his authority cannot speak to these all-inclusive, it's all comprehensive and it's all one that we really back spatially and our will to God's word is final in our society today.

Just backings to accept. Now I can understand unbelievers and pagans do not. How many believers will not accept God's final authority. Yes, I know God sees this, but there is no exception. God's word on family. God's word on marriage God's word on life God's word on conduct God's word on behavior. God's word on morality. God's word on just keep going.

Final, so Jesus was saying if I could put a backward spin on this I Jesus looked on the heart of these people and he said to them, listen, I love you so much.

If you don't talk to God. You will never become part of the activation or the unleashing of God's authority in your life you going to be a person who lives your life without authority, by the way, go under your history.

Any society that is void of authority is a society that cascades into anarchy. By the way, God is not a democracy. He's not even a constitutional republic. God doesn't share his space. He's God that I'm still on my first point. Can you believe this is pitiful how my ever going to get through all of this. What happens when God speaks, he activates his authority. Number two. He announces his plans narratives rightly you will will be done. He announces his plans.

You know he is plans are both perfect and they also patented. They perfect, because God's plans are exactly what he knows to be best for each one of us. I want that I want the best for my children. I want the best for me. I want the best for my wife. I want the best for my community.

I want the base of my friends and folks I want the best for my church. I want the church. I want the absolute best from God so that I will be done. How do we how do we attain or aspire to the best the perfect well God's will is perfect but it's also patented. It's got God's signature on it. God determined it so when we ask him, and he speaks and he says this is what I want for you because this is my perfect will for you and we do it.

Watch out because with carrying God's brand-name so if God be for us.

Bring it on who can be against us that powerful, so Jesus was saying look I know you love me and you face with all of these things you're going through bereavement loss, grieving hurting, you're facing this you doing you need to make absolutely certain that you are seeking God's face. He activates his authority announces his plans. He offers his provisions. Give us this day our daily bread. What you need right now. By the way, there's nothing unspiritual about needing to be ever thought about that. That's not a criminal offense. What you need in your life right now. You need peace need wisdom, you need a good job. You need security you need a wonderful husband you need to meet a lovely girl, you need to know what to do with your son.

Do you need to make a decision about turn right look needs of the fabric of our human disposition. That's what he was saying to them. Give us this day our daily bread God's provisions are always on time. They are always enough, and there always on target when God speaks, he wants us his grace.

Forgive assassin by the way, this grunting of forgiveness is everything to do with the grace of God.

Can you imagine that the sin in our lives and how God forgives us for that. That's the grunting of his grace.

Jesus said you have to talk to your father because in the unleashing of his and the activation of his authority in the announcement of his plans and an offering of his provisions. He is the only one who is in position to draw to his grace, which is the only means by which you can get a reprieve.

The only means by which you can escape the death sentence. It's the only means by which you can be forgiven be restored be made brand-new if I was tossed the question today is that anybody done right your hands. Is there anybody that you are so battling with your son that the sentence something is groaning a lime and it just sits on its lack of fallen man, it's like a cancer. It's like a sticky glue that just want let you go I just want you to say Jesus looked at these people and he said he's the one who brought you his grace set you free. When God speaks, he removes out difficulty. You know you already told us that in the second part of verse 12. I think he put a real humdinger on people like you and me sit forgive us for our sin. Just the same way as we forgive others who have sinned against us. To borrow a classical flat phrase that's the area of some of our greatest difficulty is how many of us, if the truth were really none some of the greatest difficulties we have is forgiving someone who's really hurt us and sometimes it does expect years coming years.

Do you know that there are people like you and me that that carry what I call a reasonable spirit of unforgiveness.cannot say this. Maybe I should turn around and say on a human level. I can understand why you don't want to forgive. Look, if that were done to me I would want to forgive the mother and and Jesus was saying to these disciples.

You want to live your whole life with an attitude of unforgiveness. You can I have a rock in your river or your life you will never have peace, you will never be able to live this life out with this spirit of unforgiveness in your and the only way you going to be able to overcome that is is to go to him because when he removes out difficulties. He convicts us of what we need to do. He conquers out difficulty and then he compels us to actually take action, so there's kind of like a threefold thing that God does because he's God, he convicts me that I have got to go, and forgive that person then he conquers my ability because I just can't do it, and then he takes me in a gentle way and sometimes not so gently because of the conviction on the conquering and he compels me his spirit moves me to actually do it because I can't do that in myself. What was Jesus saying when God speaks, he prevents out down for lead us not into temptation, he prevents out down for temptation is everywhere. I'll guarantee you every one of us were tempted this week. Not once, not twice, probably many times in our thoughts in our hearts in our actions, words, deeds, mannerisms, Bible says that old table is as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. And you use things you cotton on the stuff you've sneaks stuffing on you, you bring up issues he will throw things in your face. He will remind you of Parsons let you know how sorry you are. The Bible says when you go to your heavenly father. He prevents you down for that step prayer Lord, please help me to not allow me or prevent me from being led into temptation.

What is he knew God shows us what it is for what it is he convicts us concerning what it is because it is what it is and he prevents us from giving away to what it is because of what it is I need all of that done lost me to repeat all of that but it sounded good.

What it is. It's just this thing.

God, I mean it's right and I don't want to do it but I can't help myself, Lord, please prevent me from being led into temptation is one more thing he does he fortifies our defenses delivering us from the evil one. Not like that he fortifies our defenses. By the way, do you ever use the word for son or daughter, a husband and wife, and more importantly for yourself how may times of you and I've said you know I can do this in this, but in this era man just so weak go on-site to yourself and I can handle just about anything, but I'm just so weak. I've heard people and I've said that many times applying to so many things in my life.

You know I can do this and I can honey or not, I can hold this but I'm telling you in this area of my life.

I'm just so weak. It's like I just I get right up there and along this comes and you know I give way every time and I don't like myself written on know it's not pleasing to the Lord and I wish that I didn't do that. He fortifies our defenses heap. He blew a garrison of protection.

He gives us something to lean on, to hold onto.

He puts guardrails up there for us so we don't trip when we walking down the steps. So here was this group of people coming before the Lord Jesus Lord, would you would you tell us something.

He said I is what you need to do. I want you to know this.

If you don't do this you not going to tap into God's authority into his plans. These provisions. These grace your difficulties in your downfalls in your defenses, you're on your own. This this was a cold back to where they need to be I'm I'm I'm sensing in my own heart, God calling me back saying Don don't don't get ahead of yourself don't get ahead of God.

It's a disciplined, pray it's a discipline to seek God's face as I just I really believe that if God says it, if I say will. Then we back to the court of public opinion, but God sees it. We all listening to him. That's what I'm praying for your life and for my life. Could it be that the Lord's been speaking to me throughout this entire day stirring your heart self: God has a plan for your and it's a good, more importantly, you need to know God loves you, he's not mad at you, he's ready to receive you, no matter how far you've gone.
