The Old Trailblazer Broadcast

This is the old remainder broadcasters of Pastor Albert Norris bringing you another study on God word, renew book about Hebrews 11 chapter there some folks call it the faith chapter of God word but we been here quite a while now, and all of these messages are on CDs and if you like what we do give me the date you heard it.

We continue that Warner make you all make it make you offer low, but you let me know if you would, but also we are not mere about to leave him.

About halfway through the book I guess and within it 25th verse we looking at Moses what he suffered, and in order to be saved.

Listen, I've told you before the Christian life is not life of jaw ended bola chair is no no not having a good time shouting that comes at time of suffering, we saw that in our last night and you and I listen we go through the valley of the shadow of their seeming who enjoys dying you and I don't know know, but there comes a time of enduring. We were speaking about that, time when Moses had to endure. He endured and asked what the Scripture says, because he had respect unto the recompense of the reward. Now let's notice the 24th verse by faith Moses when he was come to years refused to be called a son of Pharaoh's daughter and then the 25th verse choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, oh my freedom. We look first an act of giving up, refusing relinquishing. Listen folks thereto think it takes place one following the other when you come to Christ first, giving up dying to self old Dr. Cober here many years ago. Great old avenger.

One of the ladies asked him one day Siddhartha Copeland how did the Lord say you should I drop David just drop dead and I felt that many many times an individual dropdead good to self denying self giving up. Moses had to give up. He had to make a choice.

I have posted what you mean he had to make a choice yes or and RTU had to make. You have to make a chart check making a choice is not salvation my friend. No, well, I chose to serve the Lord know you didn't know such a thing.

Listen, you talk about using a better believe that he chose. He made that decision now. You make a choice.

There are go to hail you want to give up you not give up all your religion.

You will give all you are begging you not give up your prejudice. You gonna give up your snowbird wheel malice in the engine and you going to give up the world are you going to give up Aaron.

Well, if I do it on my friend when you come to know the Lord, you begin to learn what it is to enjoy life.

You will you we ought to evoke here often time you don't enjoy laughter you could get saved you come to know the Lord is the Lord really you I mentioned in our last study or to that this fellow wrote me and give me a bunch of criticism so I just wrote them back and I said friend you don't know me and I don't know you but you say you know I did it.

They can think you saved this morning tonight.

You got there, an old 18 wheeler heading down I 40 are you saved if you never make it back home. Will they be able to bear you and say where my dad was a sailor man came over and I go through the cemetery. As I look at the inscriptions on those to whom do you ever do that. Reston and Jesus well are we resting in Jesus here. Okay well I'll say back I was seven years old then help in their 50s and 60s and 80s now. I said well what about today. Are you praising the Lord today you say trailblazer, that's all. You are prone is do you know the Lord will last only thing folks asked me what do we preach, we preach Christ we preach Christ. I told my folks not long was I don't have on message. That is, man is a sinner but won't have it.

I know that I understand it, folks. Folks just deny it, but man's a sinner. Christ died for sinner that's only message old trailblazer got what I need to know about what which way Noah's Ark was: what do I need to know. I heard a man spent an hour on the radio one night talking about that Noah's Ark was with head Northeast or Southwest or something like that. I don't know anyone target about how the world could you shut up all of his animals on that boat he went into a bunch of stuff that one really some job listen to and I said myself I said men don't know if the Lord created those animals he could put them to sleep for 90 days or ever how long the mark without their good just put them to sleep. Just lay down and go to sleep. I've known a man who heard an accident stayed in a coma for three full year. All that time they were living, breathing, but they work active listen, my friend.

We don't get into that new no sir but listen you ever get saved you going to give up everything that you hold dear near that's right. I've seen both go to hail over cigarette you said you talk about the truth.*Yes sir seen posted go to hail, forgive them up and that's what they did same way with a bottle of beer. I told him one day as it you going to take that little cigarette holder between your fingers to lay turn yellow and even let that sinew to hail all my friend and I know the Lord has to do the work. I know that. Listen you going to give up the world. Give up everything that you love and your home, your family, I know I know my friend that the Lord leaves us keep all that stuff.

If you would take away all your heart, you, it becomes a nonissue which you know if this could becomes a nonissue which you know what I see in my experience. Now the folks whom the Lord is saved they doing everything they can to support the ministry and I and I I'm a firm believer that is nothing, nothing wrong, nothing simple about having money making money. I used to have a bit as I made good money, I did. I really made good money, I was able to support the work greater than I ever had before until I retired in got a little older now not able to work anymore, but the Lord gave me an income back the enough of a pension that I don't have to take us out. I think that's a blessing you never listen my friend. I'll think about the other day. I've been pastor here about 15 years and I never taken a sour if I'd been taken a sour for 15 years. Even if it was a small salary.

Just think how much money would've come out of the treasure don't you praise the Lord for that.

Can't you just think with me. Can you just praise the Lord women. I believe the pastors only get paid.

I surely do and God, not exorbitantly.

No, sir, and I hear preacher well I got another year before tar will I don't see anywhere and God were worse is retire you think Moses retired. Do you you think Elijah and Elisha retired what about Josh away. What about them.

King David he never did retire. Know an old trailblazer not going to retire you I will see no place to retire to you men tell me where they should all be you live another 20 years passed. I said well that's in the Lord's, and about new. I hope I'm able to give out the gospel just give out the gospel. Then another thing he gave up Pharaoh's daughter Sonny was Pharaoh's daughter. He was Pharaoh's grandson. He gave all the honor of the court life I was a big thing folks you and I've never experienced so but that was that court court life in Pharaoh's time they were being marketing books, my friend and he give up everything that went with it. He walked out leafy just walk you will walk out, leave it to my friend, you can walk out leaving. He let go of everything that was connected with that live in Pharaoh's house and he gave up his claim upon the throne.

He was in line to be the next Pharaoh. You just have to imagine a little bit what kind of prestige that wasn't what this man.

How did he do it by faith. The Lord gave him faith to do it and then AEE did. He does at the ever individual and disowns world so to speak. Now let's look at motion. There were three things there are three things that ever man by nature latches onto prizes highly first his life.

Second, his wealth and then his honor. Now those three things.

Everyone of us prize nothing, nothing, there is no no reason to deny we are live.

Our wealth in our honor. This is clearly brought out in first John 216 live live, the lust of the flesh, will the lust of the eyes honor the pride of life. These three things constitute the life of the natural man out of Christ they got to be given up. They will they'll go my friend Bill go there, go I've seen girlfriends go out seen boyfriends go I seen lovers go out seen checkups go ballistic. I asked you are you having a hard time giving those things up. Are you battling the flesh this morning.

Are you I wouldn't last.

I wouldn't I would let my soul go to hail over some of those same but listen let the Holy Spirit give it up for you and when you give it up, it will seem as if it never existed. Not tell you that I had many dreams many days. Yes, there minutes after I retired from business back there years ago. I had some money in the bank now has some plans not had a motorhome and I was going to travel all over the country and see the world in the same for my friend the Lord put his finger on and now of the money went to the ministry motorhome so and my plans were burned up, burned all old bridges. My friend 90th and whatnot wonder hard taskmaster the Lord, not a hard taskmaster. He just gives you grace. He gives you those grace my friend. Some folks are said to me 00 can you give up something in your heart and I haven't give it up effect you actually know know you can do that when you get up in your heart you give it up. Actually it's gone as if it never existed, and as if you were never seen it, never hear of it again. You give it up all my friend anybody day by day. I see those things happen. Like I say we get letters from folks at will and just hooked only is not hooked on that list. The Bible says he that loses his life shall find it. And he that saved his life shall lose it in Matthew 1039 go there and read to lose your life is to give it up here Lord take give ever said that I often tell you to set out on the back porch. You know how that rocker in a cooler lien talk to the Lord reason with the Lord you not save you can do that go out there. You don't have to say anything out loud the husband to be set right side of you describe the Lord's name Lord thinking all you can do the oh here it is. Lord, take it take me do with Ms. you will. It matters not.

You can do all of that, my friend. The Lord says come now, let us reason together though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be white is no make that surrender real in your heart is much as you can reel in your live in this listen, it had to come in Moses life here my life take. We got a song like that here in my life. They can let me. He knew he knew it and mean out of course of Egypt say goodbye Pharaoh daughter. He knew the beginning of his life. He knew he knew not what lay ahead of them know the Lord shall so sanction this good, I'm glad I'm glad the Lord never chose the C those thing he did know there was 40 years in the wilderness just ahead of you don't know what's ahead of you, my friend. Oh listen, the Lord is able to keep you. He didn't know there was 40 years there after suffering and dying. He didn't know it and didn't make any difference you gave it up.

He gave up as well give it up all the riches of Pharaoh and I don't care if you haven't got but two nickels to rub together.

My friend let go all your land, your stock to bond your 401(k)s, your job, you retirement all of those thing belongs to the Lord is he is. We often say here we live from God's hand our mouth.

If you say that's what you do but let it go. Oh, if I let it go, how my going to Leah will affect your attitude. You never be safe. Salvation is trusting the Lord.

If you never catch a vision so to speak, of the invisible God and of the covenant and the promises of that covenant to let go let go brother. We have to let everything go. Why do I still have to let it go. I mean give it up. I mean give it up like it never existed without some that's how the Lord saves the center UK have all those things. Like I said earlier, you can straddle the fence, the Lord knows when you straddle an event, but this is the old trailblazer.
