Psalms 119:86 - The Desire of Faith

Treasurers around six first 19 Psalm it is the sixth verse in the section of the hundred 19 Psalm and the host being as we talked about tort of your open hand expecting a blessing or the super consciousness. That's over the top of your head like a Hanukkah.

Our little skullcap that the you might see some religious people where but the idea still is that it is through desire that drives us to do so many different things. If we were just desire the right things and so here we have that in verse 86 is it being the six diverse and that would be the sixth anointing that we always talk about that would be a fear the Lord and so I think you'll see that in this is absolutely amazing. It says the 86 verse in English all by commandments are faithful. They persecute me wrongfully help thou me and so that idea the fear the Lord is we have to trust him because these people are, persecute me, but it's really really cool the way he did this again with this idea of this desire, and so his his desire is for these commandments because those commandments are faithful. In other words, it's kind of neat. When you look inside the Hebrew of all this, that the word me is in none, and a unit in working to get to the none section will talk about it a lot, but is the seed it is faith. And so that's where you see that none both in the word faithful and you also see in the word me and so when he says they persecute me, we see a nun there and when they when he says help me again. He's he's he's hit with a nun there and so you see this consistent desire for faith here. That's what is really asking for and of course that's a fair Lord like God is going to take care of this bed and and then you know really beautiful.

Obviously he sang help thou me so his desire not is just for faith but is also for help, but that help is coming because of the faith right and he's just waiting on God and because all his commandments are faithful.

In other words, those commandments are faithful and that were faithfully doing it for God. But there also faithful to us back at us because God loves us and is going to come through for us so you know what is this look like in a story, so when I go back to my story. When we lost the dealership and we lost all her money and we lost some medically.

We had no car is what you know we're we were scraping together for every single thing on them to be the exact same year that my son graduated from high school and of course he wanted to go to college and he played basketball in his big desire. The thing that drove him.

Believe me so many different ways was that he wanted to play Division I college basketball and you know he he played and played really well at Calvary Baptist days go here and he was had lots of coaches look foreman look at him and the coach at the University of Northern Arizona had a desire but he wasn't given a scholarship that was very interested in Rob become the school day or so that he could play on that team and so you know that summer when we had been. Certainly everybody was chasing after us and the idea by the way of that they persecute me. That's actually this is false witness that's pursuing us that's the way that the word is in Hebrew, and so you know, honestly, there was a false witness that we had done all this stuff that would destroy their credit and and that actually you know it was not my fault that somebody install an alarm didn't change the fact that I was being hounded by the IRS as being hounded by Chrysler as being hounded by a lot of different people and we had no money, and so we in faith title know how to put it other than we went to the University of northern Arizona. We drove our son all the way out there with everything in but we had no money in order to have in the role so you know we go through the whole thing just you know trusting that God's going to come through for somehow and they wanted us to have credit and maybe you know they would, but then they could see that we were getting alone and then they came to the point where we were either going to have to leave our son there or where you have to bring them home and so I said no he's going to stay. We will figure it out. My wife you know this is low. We live in North Carolina and this is an Arizona sewer timeout may be a 2000 miles. It was a long way An interesting drive back, I can tell you because I was like I just know God's gonna come through.

I had faith. I knew that I'd been persecuted wrongfully and I knew that God was going to come through. I didn't have any idea how but I just knew that Mitt was meant by my son, you know heatstroke his whole life to be able to do this and and I just felt like God was going to come through in the situation and so that one of those stories that you will never forget his large live. When we got home my wife was not happy that we left Earth senators audibly meant when we got home we open up the mailbox and in the mailbox off if I didn't see this with my own eyes I would believe it.

There was a check for the amount of the actually the tuition was like $20,000 or maybe was 18,000. Whatever the amount was there was a check in the mailbox like to think that we would get this kind of money that this is not life is just beyond my wildest imagination. But what happened was that when they arrested our office manager, the state of North Carolina for not paying the payroll taxes then and she wrote, in order for her to stay out of jail for as long she wrote a really substantial check will arrive hundred thousand dollars. The state of North Carolina in order to you to reduce her sentence and all that would happen to her in her trial, but when they did that.

You see the state of North Carolina hadn't given me my credits in my taxes as a result of all that that she had taken and so I you know, again, I'll never know exactly how I will work, but what I do know is here was a check from the state of North Carolina made out with all these people chase them for money.

It it was for $18,100 coming almost to the penny and what we needed for rough beast since the week quickly deposited it and we paid for that. That first semester is diminished tuition at the University of northern Arizona so you know it was one of those things that you know Robbie side. Our whole family saw it, but you know as an opportunity really test your faith to see what is going to happen and God came in so I love this. I love this all by commandments are faith of a persecuted wrongfully help thou me and I believe me is his commandments are faithful and he will help you when you need it. There's no doubt in my studying with me today
