00:00:01.350 --> 00:00:04.020
This program is made
possible by the giving
2
00:00:04.020 --> 00:00:08.070
of the God called partners
of Renner Ministries.
3
00:00:08.070 --> 00:00:11.340
Get ready for a teaching
that feeds your spirit
4
00:00:11.340 --> 00:00:14.910
and your mind where the
word is the anchor in
5
00:00:14.910 --> 00:00:16.860
uncertain times
6
00:00:16.860 --> 00:00:20.160
and doctrine doesn't bend to culture.
7
00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:21.600
We keep it simple,
8
00:00:21.600 --> 00:00:26.160
but dive deep revealing a
truth that strengthens us,
9
00:00:27.030 --> 00:00:28.650
a love that emboldens,
10
00:00:30.060 --> 00:00:32.220
and a mission that touches the world.
11
00:00:34.560 --> 00:00:36.090
Let's join Rick Renner.
12
00:00:38.910 --> 00:00:42.630
Hey friends, this is Rick Renner. Welcome to a new week.
13
00:00:42.630 --> 00:00:44.070
This is Monday
14
00:00:44.070 --> 00:00:47.160 line:15%
and today we're gonna
continue our series called How
15
00:00:47.160 --> 00:00:49.830 line:15%
to Flourish in Your Senior Years.
16
00:00:49.830 --> 00:00:51.360 line:15%
It's 10 parts.
17
00:00:51.360 --> 00:00:55.470 line:15%
The subtitle says - Proof that
God wants to use You mightily
18
00:00:55.470 --> 00:00:58.230 line:15%
as you age and mature.
19
00:00:58.230 --> 00:01:00.840 line:15%
My friends, the end of your
life are really supposed
20
00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:02.370 line:15%
to be the Golden Years.
21
00:01:02.370 --> 00:01:05.130 line:15%
They're to be the very
best years of your life.
22
00:01:05.130 --> 00:01:06.570 line:15%
And in this series we're gonna see
23
00:01:06.570 --> 00:01:09.510 line:15%
how you can flourish in your senior years.
24
00:01:09.510 --> 00:01:11.580 line:15%
And it comes with a wonderful study guide
25
00:01:11.580 --> 00:01:13.680 line:15%
and my friends, you need the study guide
26
00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:16.200 line:15%
because this is really
material that you need
27
00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:17.610 line:15%
to get down deep inside you
28
00:01:17.610 --> 00:01:19.740 line:15%
and you need to renew your mind
29
00:01:19.740 --> 00:01:23.670 line:15%
to understand your latter years are supposed to be your best
30
00:01:23.670 --> 00:01:25.800 line:15%
and most productive years.
31
00:01:25.800 --> 00:01:28.200 line:15%
And we're also offering you my book,
32
00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:30.420 line:15%
which is called, A Life Ablaze.
33
00:01:30.420 --> 00:01:34.170 line:15%
The subtitle says - 10 Simple keys to Living on Fire
34
00:01:34.170 --> 00:01:35.910 line:15%
for God. My friends,
35
00:01:35.910 --> 00:01:37.650 line:15%
you're not supposed to be on fire when you're
36
00:01:37.650 --> 00:01:39.060 line:15%
young and then lose it.
37
00:01:39.060 --> 00:01:41.040 line:15%
You're supposed to stay on fire.
38
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:44.820 line:15%
You're to be 'A Life Ablaze' all the way to the end
39
00:01:44.820 --> 00:01:46.440 line:15%
of your life.
40
00:01:46.440 --> 00:01:48.750 line:15%
But you can order all these
things by going online
41
00:01:48.750 --> 00:01:49.950 line:15%
or by calling us.
42
00:01:49.950 --> 00:01:52.980
And please, when you reach
out to us, let us know how
43
00:01:52.980 --> 00:01:55.680 line:15%
to pray because we're
waiting to pray for you.
44
00:01:55.680 --> 00:02:00.450 line:15%
Jeremiah 33:3 gloriously says - Call unto me,
45
00:02:00.450 --> 00:02:02.790 line:15%
I'll hear you, I'll answer you
46
00:02:02.790 --> 00:02:05.250 line:15%
and I'll show you great and mighty things.
47
00:02:05.250 --> 00:02:08.400 line:15%
That's God's challenge - call unto me.
48
00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:10.410 line:15%
Well, we'll call out to God with you
49
00:02:10.410 --> 00:02:12.930 line:15%
and we will pray in faith.
50
00:02:12.930 --> 00:02:16.350 line:15%
And just like Jeremiah 33:3 says, God will hear us,
51
00:02:16.350 --> 00:02:18.210 line:15%
God will answer us,
52
00:02:18.210 --> 00:02:20.550 line:15%
and God will do spectacular things,
53
00:02:20.550 --> 00:02:25.530 line:15%
which means Jesus will do
exactly what needs to be done.
54
00:02:25.530 --> 00:02:28.620 line:15%
Sometimes you think you
know what needs to be done,
55
00:02:28.620 --> 00:02:32.160 line:15%
but Jesus knows better and he
will do what needs to be done.
56
00:02:32.160 --> 00:02:35.160 line:15%
And you will be so glad that he moved.
57
00:02:35.160 --> 00:02:38.460 line:15%
But reach out to us by calling us or by going online
58
00:02:38.460 --> 00:02:40.740 line:15%
because we really want to pray
59
00:02:40.740 --> 00:02:43.560 line:15%
with you. But the reach for your Bible
60
00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:45.420 line:15%
and today we're returning to our subject, How
61
00:02:45.420 --> 00:02:48.540 line:15%
To Flourish In Your Senior Years.
62
00:02:48.540 --> 00:02:52.530 line:15%
And in the previous week we
saw that God called Enoch
63
00:02:52.530 --> 00:02:55.320 line:15%
to the most spectacular experience
64
00:02:55.320 --> 00:03:00.320 line:15%
of his life when he was 365 years old.
65
00:03:00.670 --> 00:03:02.320 line:15%
We saw the call of God came
66
00:03:02.320 --> 00:03:05.260
to Noah when he was 500.
67
00:03:05.260 --> 00:03:08.020
What a great moment to
wake up to the call of God.
68
00:03:08.020 --> 00:03:12.670
We've seen that Abraham was 99 years old when in Genesis
69
00:03:12.670 --> 00:03:14.860
17:1, God said to him,
70
00:03:14.860 --> 00:03:18.910
I am the Lord God Almighty. Walk before me, be thou perfect.
71
00:03:18.910 --> 00:03:22.630
It was the equivalent for saying - Hey Abraham, it's time
72
00:03:22.630 --> 00:03:24.250
for you to quit making mistakes.
73
00:03:24.250 --> 00:03:26.140
I want you to walk straight in front of me,
74
00:03:26.140 --> 00:03:27.640
do exactly what I say.
75
00:03:27.640 --> 00:03:31.450
And at the age of 99, he had a revelation that he
76
00:03:31.450 --> 00:03:34.180
and Sarah were gonna have a supernatural baby.
77
00:03:34.180 --> 00:03:38.380
And Sarah was 90 years old
when she heard that from God.
78
00:03:38.380 --> 00:03:40.930
And it was so unthinkable
to her that she began
79
00:03:40.930 --> 00:03:42.460
to laugh out loud
80
00:03:42.460 --> 00:03:45.280
and God said, Hey, we're
gonna name this baby Isaac,
81
00:03:45.280 --> 00:03:46.870
which means laughter.
82
00:03:46.870 --> 00:03:49.810
And it was the equivalent
of God saying, huh,
83
00:03:49.810 --> 00:03:52.390
we'll see who's gonna get the last laugh on this. A
84
00:03:52.390 --> 00:03:53.560
year past
85
00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:58.330
and at the age of 91, Sarah really gave birth to a baby
86
00:03:58.330 --> 00:03:59.950
Isaac. My friends,
87
00:03:59.950 --> 00:04:02.500
all of that is naturally impossible.
88
00:04:02.500 --> 00:04:06.310
But in the senior years of
these individual's life,
89
00:04:06.310 --> 00:04:10.030
they experienced the most
marvelous experiences
90
00:04:10.030 --> 00:04:12.460
and became major fruit producers.
91
00:04:12.460 --> 00:04:15.370
And that's what God
wants to do in your life.
92
00:04:15.370 --> 00:04:17.950
Now, if you say, well, this
has no application to me.
93
00:04:17.950 --> 00:04:21.070
I'm in my 20's, I'm in my 30's, I'm a teenager,
94
00:04:21.070 --> 00:04:23.200
I'm just in my 40's or my 50's.
95
00:04:23.200 --> 00:04:25.900
Well guess what? One of these
days you're gonna get there.
96
00:04:25.900 --> 00:04:28.150
You're gonna reach your senior years,
97
00:04:28.150 --> 00:04:31.300
if Jesus doesn't come first. I hope that he comes first.
98
00:04:31.300 --> 00:04:34.750
But if he doesn't, one of these days, my friends,
99
00:04:34.750 --> 00:04:36.820
you're gonna reach your senior years
100
00:04:36.820 --> 00:04:39.220
and you need to be thinking
right about the senior
101
00:04:39.220 --> 00:04:40.570
years of your life.
102
00:04:40.570 --> 00:04:43.600
Your parent may be a senior
citizen or your grandparent
103
00:04:43.600 --> 00:04:45.250
or a very dear friend.
104
00:04:45.250 --> 00:04:47.110
Rather than think they're irrelevant
105
00:04:47.110 --> 00:04:49.870
because of their age, you
need to encourage them
106
00:04:49.870 --> 00:04:51.280 line:15%
to embrace life.
107
00:04:51.280 --> 00:04:53.950
They're in the best season of their life.
108
00:04:53.950 --> 00:04:56.410 line:15%
Now, today we're gonna be using the Bible a lot,
109
00:04:56.410 --> 00:04:58.300
so please reach for your Bible.
110
00:04:58.300 --> 00:05:00.310 line:15%
But I wanna share these
new studies with you.
111
00:05:00.310 --> 00:05:05.200 line:15%
Again, statistics show the
most productive age is from
112
00:05:05.200 --> 00:05:07.720 line:15%
60 to 70 years.
113
00:05:07.720 --> 00:05:12.280 line:15%
Did you hear that? The most
productive age is from 60
114
00:05:12.280 --> 00:05:14.020 line:15%
to 70 years?
115
00:05:14.020 --> 00:05:17.950 line:15%
The 2nd most productive age is from 70
116
00:05:17.950 --> 00:05:19.660 line:15%
to 80 years.
117
00:05:19.660 --> 00:05:20.830 line:15%
That is amazing.
118
00:05:20.830 --> 00:05:25.150 line:15%
The 3rd most productive age is from 50 to 60.
119
00:05:25.150 --> 00:05:26.530 line:15%
Now, most people would think 50
120
00:05:26.530 --> 00:05:28.960 line:15%
to 60 is the most productive age.
121
00:05:28.960 --> 00:05:31.720
And usually when people are
50 to 60, they're beginning
122
00:05:31.720 --> 00:05:33.010
to think about retirement
123
00:05:33.010 --> 00:05:34.090
and getting ready
124
00:05:34.090 --> 00:05:37.330
for quitting work when they hit their mid 60's.
125
00:05:37.330 --> 00:05:39.970
But in fact, 60 to 70, my friends,
126
00:05:39.970 --> 00:05:42.130
they're just hitting their prime: 70 to 80,
127
00:05:42.130 --> 00:05:45.430
that's the next most productive year of their life.
128
00:05:45.430 --> 00:05:49.930 line:15%
The average age of Nobel Peace Prize winners are late
129
00:05:49.930 --> 00:05:53.350 line:15%
60's and early 70's, which mean if they had given up
130
00:05:53.350 --> 00:05:54.910 line:15%
and retired early in life,
131
00:05:54.910 --> 00:05:56.920 line:15%
they would've never
received the Nobel Peace.
132
00:05:57.800 --> 00:05:59.960 line:15%
The average age of presidents
133
00:05:59.960 --> 00:06:04.010 line:15%
of large corporations is in their late 60's
134
00:06:04.010 --> 00:06:06.170 line:15%
and early 70's.
135
00:06:06.170 --> 00:06:07.970 line:15%
The average age of pastors
136
00:06:07.970 --> 00:06:12.650 line:15%
of the world's 100 largest churches is 71.
137
00:06:12.650 --> 00:06:17.180 line:15%
The average age of popes when they become Pope is 78.
138
00:06:17.180 --> 00:06:18.740 line:15%
That is totally amazing.
139
00:06:18.740 --> 00:06:21.650 line:15%
And the best years of
your life then according
140
00:06:21.650 --> 00:06:26.650 line:15%
to these studies, are from 60 to 80: 60 to 80.
141
00:06:27.080 --> 00:06:29.120 line:15%
Now everything earlier in life is great.
142
00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:32.270 line:15%
It's all preparation for the later season.
143
00:06:32.270 --> 00:06:36.170 line:15%
And from 60 to 80 becomes
the most productive years
144
00:06:36.170 --> 00:06:40.670 line:15%
of your life; which means at 60 you begin
145
00:06:40.670 --> 00:06:44.900 line:15%
to reach your potential and it continues into your 80's.
146
00:06:44.900 --> 00:06:47.540 line:15%
And it means if you are between 60
147
00:06:47.540 --> 00:06:51.470 line:15%
and 70 right now, you are
in the best mental years
148
00:06:51.470 --> 00:06:52.640 line:15%
of your life.
149
00:06:52.640 --> 00:06:54.380 line:15%
And if you're 70 to 80,
150
00:06:54.380 --> 00:06:57.020 line:15%
you're in the 2nd best mental years of your life.
151
00:06:57.020 --> 00:06:58.640 line:15%
And then somebody says - Well then why do I seem
152
00:06:58.640 --> 00:07:00.560 line:15%
to be losing my memory?
153
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:04.160
Well, the same studies show
that what many people deemed
154
00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:06.740
to be memory loss really is just the
155
00:07:06.740 --> 00:07:08.240
circuits are overloaded.
156
00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:10.520
Their mind is so filled with information
157
00:07:10.520 --> 00:07:12.020
that they experience an overload
158
00:07:12.020 --> 00:07:13.640
of the circuits in their mind.
159
00:07:13.640 --> 00:07:15.800
And friends, I'm going to tell
you that as you get older,
160
00:07:15.800 --> 00:07:18.380
your base gets bigger; you know more,
161
00:07:18.380 --> 00:07:20.090
you have more experience.
162
00:07:20.090 --> 00:07:22.100
My friends, you are really ready for life.
163
00:07:22.100 --> 00:07:23.600
You can think faster.
164
00:07:23.600 --> 00:07:25.430
You know what's right,
you know what's wrong.
165
00:07:25.430 --> 00:07:28.280
You don't even have to labor
in prayer over things as long
166
00:07:28.280 --> 00:07:29.750
as you used to
167
00:07:29.750 --> 00:07:31.910
because you've already been there, you've already done that.
168
00:07:31.910 --> 00:07:33.590
You've already learned those lessons,
169
00:07:33.590 --> 00:07:37.460
and now you are really ready to thrive.
170
00:07:37.460 --> 00:07:41.210
You're ready to flourish in
the senior years of your life.
171
00:07:41.210 --> 00:07:43.520
And it is a grave mistake for people
172
00:07:43.520 --> 00:07:46.070
to move off the playing field
173
00:07:46.070 --> 00:07:48.830
because they've hit the
senior citizen years.
174
00:07:48.830 --> 00:07:50.600
That is just a mistake.
175
00:07:50.600 --> 00:07:53.870
I was recently speaking to a pastor who said to me - Well,
176
00:07:55.160 --> 00:07:56.360
think I'm gonna retire.
177
00:07:56.360 --> 00:07:57.860
I'm in my early 60's
178
00:07:57.860 --> 00:08:00.890
and people are looking at me kind of like I'm old,
179
00:08:00.890 --> 00:08:03.200
I'm gonna turn the church over to some younger people.
180
00:08:03.200 --> 00:08:05.990
Well, it's good to have younger people of course,
181
00:08:05.990 --> 00:08:07.220
but I asked him, what are you gonna do
182
00:08:07.220 --> 00:08:08.660
for the next 30 years of your life?
183
00:08:08.660 --> 00:08:10.370
People are living longer now.
184
00:08:10.370 --> 00:08:13.460
Are you gonna play golf for the next 30 years of your life?
185
00:08:13.460 --> 00:08:17.000
What are you gonna do - twiddle your thumbs? My friends,
186
00:08:17.000 --> 00:08:20.150
it was not time for him to move off the playing field.
187
00:08:20.150 --> 00:08:23.090
It was time for him to impart
to a younger generation.
188
00:08:23.090 --> 00:08:26.270 line:15%
In fact, I say the first 30 years of your life,
189
00:08:26.270 --> 00:08:29.930 line:15%
you spend time learning. The second 30 years of your life,
190
00:08:29.930 --> 00:08:33.650 line:15%
you spend time doing. The third 30 years of our life
191
00:08:33.650 --> 00:08:36.980 line:15%
we need to spend our time imparting to others.
192
00:08:36.980 --> 00:08:40.220 line:15%
These should be the Golden Years of our life.
193
00:08:40.220 --> 00:08:43.910
But today we're gonna
look at the story of Moses
194
00:08:43.910 --> 00:08:47.120 line:15%
and we're going to see that at the age of 80,
195
00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:48.770 line:15%
he got a brand new assignment
196
00:08:48.770 --> 00:08:50.210
and he launched out
197
00:08:50.210 --> 00:08:53.900 line:15%
to do something spectacular at 80 years
198
00:08:53.900 --> 00:08:55.860
of life.
199
00:08:55.860 --> 00:08:58.410
But let's begin with Moses beginning.
200
00:08:58.410 --> 00:09:00.870
And we're going to begin today in Hebrews 11.
201
00:09:00.870 --> 00:09:04.320
We're gonna read verse 23, which says - By faith,
202
00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:06.930
Moses, when he was born,
203
00:09:08.340 --> 00:09:10.260
was hid 3-months of his parents
204
00:09:10.260 --> 00:09:13.470
because they saw he was a proper child.
205
00:09:13.470 --> 00:09:16.710
The word proper child, in Greek, is the word, asteios.
206
00:09:16.710 --> 00:09:18.690
It's where you get the word aesthetics.
207
00:09:18.690 --> 00:09:21.150
It describes something that is polished, something
208
00:09:21.150 --> 00:09:24.900
that is elegant, something that is sophisticated or unusual.
209
00:09:24.900 --> 00:09:26.340
And when they saw this child,
210
00:09:26.340 --> 00:09:28.920
they knew there was something really special
211
00:09:28.920 --> 00:09:30.570
about this child.
212
00:09:30.570 --> 00:09:33.600
When we read Acts 7:20,
213
00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:36.840
where Stephen is preaching, Stephen also refers to this
214
00:09:36.840 --> 00:09:40.020
and Stephen says - in which time Moses was born
215
00:09:40.020 --> 00:09:42.150
and was exceeding fair
216
00:09:42.150 --> 00:09:45.180
and was nourished up in his father's house 3-months.
217
00:09:45.180 --> 00:09:49.050
That phrase, exceeding fair. is the same Greek word asteios,
218
00:09:49.050 --> 00:09:50.700
where we get the word aesthetics
219
00:09:50.700 --> 00:09:55.170
and again means polished, elegant, sophisticated, unusual.
220
00:09:55.170 --> 00:09:58.110
His parents could see from the moment of his birth
221
00:09:58.110 --> 00:10:01.380
that he was a remarkable, remarkable child.
222
00:10:01.380 --> 00:10:05.160
Even aesthetically, Moses looked different at his birth.
223
00:10:05.160 --> 00:10:07.560
Well we know from Exodus 1:15
224
00:10:07.560 --> 00:10:10.080
and 16 that at the time of his birth,
225
00:10:10.080 --> 00:10:11.520
Pharaoh had given the order
226
00:10:11.520 --> 00:10:14.580
that all Hebrew boys. when they were born. were
227
00:10:14.580 --> 00:10:17.340
to be drowned in the River Nile.
228
00:10:17.340 --> 00:10:19.230
But his parents hid him
229
00:10:19.230 --> 00:10:21.810
and they nourished him for 3 months.
230
00:10:21.810 --> 00:10:23.520
And finally at the age of 3 months,
231
00:10:23.520 --> 00:10:26.100
he was put into a little ark of bull rushes.
232
00:10:26.100 --> 00:10:28.560
He was put into the river, his parents trying to save him,
233
00:10:28.560 --> 00:10:32.430
and Pharaoh's daughter found him, took him
234
00:10:32.430 --> 00:10:37.430
and took him home and adopted him as her own son.
235
00:10:37.500 --> 00:10:42.500
And this is what we come to now in Hebrews 11:24.
236
00:10:42.510 --> 00:10:45.090
He was raised as an Egyptian all
237
00:10:45.090 --> 00:10:48.750
of those years: from 3-months until the age
238
00:10:48.750 --> 00:10:51.000
of 40.
239
00:10:51.000 --> 00:10:52.830
Now that is amazing. All
240
00:10:52.830 --> 00:10:55.110
of those years he was raised in Egypt.
241
00:10:55.110 --> 00:10:57.660
But when he was 40 years old,
242
00:10:57.660 --> 00:11:01.680
he had a revelation about who he really was
243
00:11:01.680 --> 00:11:04.020
and he began to identify
with the people of God.
244
00:11:04.020 --> 00:11:07.170
And we read this in Hebrews 11:24, which says
245
00:11:07.170 --> 00:11:11.490
By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused
246
00:11:11.490 --> 00:11:13.950
to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter.
247
00:11:13.950 --> 00:11:17.040
By the way, when it says - when he was come to years,
248
00:11:17.040 --> 00:11:20.580
the Greek actually says - having become great.
249
00:11:20.580 --> 00:11:24.360
It doesn't refer so much to his age as to his stature.
250
00:11:24.360 --> 00:11:27.600
And by the time that Moses hit 40,
251
00:11:27.600 --> 00:11:31.200
he wasn't just 40 years old, but he was great in stature.
252
00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:33.930
In fact, if you read the writings of Josephus,
253
00:11:33.930 --> 00:11:37.050
Josephus vividly describes the stature
254
00:11:37.050 --> 00:11:39.240
that Moses had in Egypt by the time
255
00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:40.500
that he was 40 years old.
256
00:11:40.500 --> 00:11:43.140 line:15%
I have a series called Moses and the 10 Plagues.
257
00:11:43.140 --> 00:11:44.220 line:15%
You ought to get that series
258
00:11:44.220 --> 00:11:47.820 line:15%
where I really go into detail
about Moses when he reached
259
00:11:47.820 --> 00:11:49.710 line:15%
this great stature in Egypt
260
00:11:49.710 --> 00:11:52.110 line:15%
before he had his experience with God
261
00:11:52.110 --> 00:11:54.940 line:15%
and he began to identify
with the people of God.
262
00:11:54.940 --> 00:11:58.090 line:15%
In fact, this is also referred to in Acts 7:
263
00:11:58.090 --> 00:12:00.460
22, where Stephen is preaching
264
00:12:00.460 --> 00:12:04.840
and Stephen says - And Moses was learned in all the wisdom
265
00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:07.630
of the Egyptians and was mighty in words
266
00:12:07.630 --> 00:12:11.350
and in deeds. The word learned, in Acts 7:
267
00:12:11.350 --> 00:12:13.600
22, means to nourish.
268
00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:16.540 line:15%
He was nourished in all the
wisdom of the Egyptians.
269
00:12:16.540 --> 00:12:18.130 line:15%
It means to fully educate
270
00:12:18.130 --> 00:12:21.700 line:15%
and to instruct, to educate
a child from childhood
271
00:12:21.700 --> 00:12:23.110 line:15%
to adulthood.
272
00:12:23.110 --> 00:12:26.230 line:15%
And it refers to both natural
and religious education.
273
00:12:26.230 --> 00:12:30.010
So in every respect, Moses from 3-months
274
00:12:30.010 --> 00:12:32.890
to the age 40, had been raised and nurtured
275
00:12:32.890 --> 00:12:35.740
and educated as an Egyptian.
276
00:12:35.740 --> 00:12:36.910
And the verse goes on
277
00:12:36.910 --> 00:12:41.380
to say - he was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptian.
278
00:12:41.380 --> 00:12:44.620 line:15%
And the word wisdom, here describes insight, skill,
279
00:12:44.620 --> 00:12:47.620 line:15%
intelligence, philosophy, sophistication:
280
00:12:47.620 --> 00:12:51.790 line:15%
one that is especially astute, one that is bright, educated,
281
00:12:51.790 --> 00:12:54.370
smart or eminently enlightened.
282
00:12:54.370 --> 00:12:58.150
That is what Moses was at the age of 40.
283
00:12:58.150 --> 00:13:02.650
And it goes on to say he was mighty in words and in deeds.
284
00:13:02.650 --> 00:13:05.320
This man was just amazing
285
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:07.120
by the time he hit 40
286
00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:11.860
and he had a legendary status
already at the age of 40.
287
00:13:11.860 --> 00:13:16.060
And we read in Hebrews 11:24 - By faith Moses,
288
00:13:16.060 --> 00:13:17.890
when he was come to years -
289
00:13:17.890 --> 00:13:19.780
or when he had attained greatness,
290
00:13:19.780 --> 00:13:22.750
could really be a good translation - refused
291
00:13:22.750 --> 00:13:25.060
to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter.
292
00:13:25.060 --> 00:13:28.750 line:15%
And the word, refused, is the Greek word, arneomai.
293
00:13:28.750 --> 00:13:33.750 line:15%
This word arneomai, means: to deny, to disown, to reject,
294
00:13:33.880 --> 00:13:36.340 line:15%
to refuse or to renounce.
295
00:13:36.340 --> 00:13:39.520 line:15%
It referred to a person who disavowed forsook,
296
00:13:39.520 --> 00:13:43.360 line:15%
walked away from or washed his hands of another person
297
00:13:43.360 --> 00:13:44.650 line:15%
or a group of people.
298
00:13:44.650 --> 00:13:48.490 line:15%
And such denials were usually
accompanied with ridicule
299
00:13:48.490 --> 00:13:50.890 line:15%
or persecution.
300
00:13:50.890 --> 00:13:54.460
So it tells us that when
he made this decision
301
00:13:54.460 --> 00:13:56.230
that he would no longer be called the son
302
00:13:56.230 --> 00:13:58.300
of Pharaoh's daughter, he really dealt
303
00:13:58.300 --> 00:13:59.620
with a lot of persecution.
304
00:13:59.620 --> 00:14:03.430
He washed his hands of the
past and walked away from it.
305
00:14:03.430 --> 00:14:07.180
In verse 25 tells us why - Choosing rather
306
00:14:07.180 --> 00:14:10.690
to suffer affliction with a people of God than
307
00:14:10.690 --> 00:14:14.290
to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season.
308
00:14:14.290 --> 00:14:17.290
The word choosing, is a form of the Greek word, haireo,
309
00:14:17.290 --> 00:14:19.810
which means - to choose or to prefer.
310
00:14:19.810 --> 00:14:21.430
It depicts a personal choice
311
00:14:21.430 --> 00:14:24.460
or preference that sets
one apart from others.
312
00:14:24.460 --> 00:14:27.580
It was nearly unthinkable
in the eyes of the Egyptians
313
00:14:27.580 --> 00:14:31.060
that Moses would do this, but this was his choice.
314
00:14:31.060 --> 00:14:35.890
Choosing rather to suffer affliction with. Suffer affliction
315
00:14:35.890 --> 00:14:39.130
with - in Greek means - joint suffering.
316
00:14:39.130 --> 00:14:42.370
It means to suffer bad things
in partnership with others.
317
00:14:42.370 --> 00:14:44.170
And of course we know
from the story the people
318
00:14:44.170 --> 00:14:46.660
of Israel were really suffering in Egypt.
319
00:14:46.660 --> 00:14:50.350
And it goes on - rather than to enjoy the pleasures
320
00:14:50.350 --> 00:14:53.210
of sin a season. The word enjoy, is really the word
321
00:14:53.210 --> 00:14:57.440
for benefits - rather than to enjoy the benefits
322
00:14:57.440 --> 00:14:59.870
of the pleasures of sin for a season.
323
00:14:59.870 --> 00:15:01.490
And he walked away from it all.
324
00:15:01.490 --> 00:15:04.400
And verse 26 says - Esteeming the reproach
325
00:15:04.400 --> 00:15:07.970
of Christ greater than the treasures in Egypt.
326
00:15:07.970 --> 00:15:11.030
The word, esteeming, the Greek word hegeomai, which means
327
00:15:11.030 --> 00:15:12.950
to count, to deem, to consider:
328
00:15:12.950 --> 00:15:14.690
he really put his mind to this -
329
00:15:14.690 --> 00:15:17.390
and he really deemed the reproach
330
00:15:17.390 --> 00:15:20.060
of Christ greater riches than the treasures
331
00:15:20.060 --> 00:15:23.240
in Egypt. The word reproach, is a Greek word which
332
00:15:23.240 --> 00:15:24.350
means insults.
333
00:15:25.550 --> 00:15:29.090
It pictures language that is
intended to injure, harm, hurt
334
00:15:29.090 --> 00:15:33.470
or damage, and denotes words
that damage one's reputation.
335
00:15:33.470 --> 00:15:37.310
And it implies that when Moses walked away from the lap
336
00:15:37.310 --> 00:15:41.120
of a luxury, he subjected himself to a great deal
337
00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:46.120
of verbal insults and verbal abuse from the people of Egypt.
338
00:15:46.640 --> 00:15:48.770
But he esteemed the reproach
339
00:15:48.770 --> 00:15:53.030
of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt.
340
00:15:53.030 --> 00:15:54.500
And of course, when you think about Egypt,
341
00:15:54.500 --> 00:15:59.500
you think about treasures, treasures: vast, vast treasures.
342
00:15:59.660 --> 00:16:04.288
Wow. But when you come to verse 27, it continues to say
343
00:16:04.288 --> 00:16:06.088
By faith, he forsook Egypt.
344
00:16:06.088 --> 00:16:08.960
The word forsook means to abandon
345
00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:10.730
and to leave behind.
346
00:16:10.730 --> 00:16:13.460
But it goes on to say, by
faith, he forsook Egypt,
347
00:16:13.460 --> 00:16:15.800
or now we understand He abandoned it.
348
00:16:15.800 --> 00:16:20.800
He left it behind not fearing the wrath of the king.
349
00:16:20.840 --> 00:16:22.670
And the word wrath, that is used here is a form
350
00:16:22.670 --> 00:16:25.910
of the Greek word thumos, which portrays a person
351
00:16:25.910 --> 00:16:29.420
who suddenly flares up and loses control,
352
00:16:29.420 --> 00:16:31.250
or one who boils with anger
353
00:16:31.250 --> 00:16:34.970
and blows up erupting in an ugly outburst
354
00:16:34.970 --> 00:16:37.040
that negatively affects other people.
355
00:16:37.040 --> 00:16:40.370
He knew the king was really going to be angry
356
00:16:40.370 --> 00:16:41.750
and would have outbursts
357
00:16:41.750 --> 00:16:46.280
of wrath over Moses walking away from it all.
358
00:16:46.280 --> 00:16:49.040
But it goes on to say - For he endured.
359
00:16:49.040 --> 00:16:52.010
And guess what? The word endured, means -
360
00:16:52.010 --> 00:16:56.030
he continued undeterred, he was steadfast,
361
00:16:56.030 --> 00:16:59.420
he preserved or he really stayed on track.
362
00:16:59.420 --> 00:17:02.750
He refused to let anything move him.
363
00:17:02.750 --> 00:17:06.350
And all that occurred when he was 40.
364
00:17:06.350 --> 00:17:08.630
But then he ended up out in the wilderness
365
00:17:08.630 --> 00:17:12.020
and from 40 to 80, he was wandering around the wilderness,
366
00:17:12.020 --> 00:17:15.830
taking care of the sheep of his father-in-law, Jethro.
367
00:17:15.830 --> 00:17:17.660
And during those 40 years,
368
00:17:17.660 --> 00:17:20.570
which were really a wilderness experience,
369
00:17:20.570 --> 00:17:23.120
God was working in Moses.
370
00:17:23.120 --> 00:17:25.280
Moses may not have realized it,
371
00:17:25.280 --> 00:17:28.910
but Moses was being
emptied of false ambition.
372
00:17:28.910 --> 00:17:32.240
He was being emptied of
pride, he was being emptied
373
00:17:32.240 --> 00:17:34.250
of all his natural skills which he had
374
00:17:34.250 --> 00:17:35.930
previously leaned upon.
375
00:17:35.930 --> 00:17:40.160
And finally, when he was
80 years old, he was ready
376
00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:44.630
to be used and he had an
encounter with God Almighty,
377
00:17:44.630 --> 00:17:47.720
which is described in Exodus 3:1,
378
00:17:47.720 --> 00:17:50.640
which says - Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro,
379
00:17:50.640 --> 00:17:52.860
his father-in-law, the priest of Midian,
380
00:17:52.860 --> 00:17:55.620
and he had led the flock to the backside of the desert
381
00:17:55.620 --> 00:17:59.040
and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb - verse 2:
382
00:17:59.040 --> 00:18:01.680
And the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a flame
383
00:18:01.680 --> 00:18:03.540
of fire out of the midst of the bush:
384
00:18:03.540 --> 00:18:06.150
and he looked and behold the bush burned with fire
385
00:18:06.150 --> 00:18:07.590
and the bush was not consumed.
386
00:18:07.590 --> 00:18:11.190
Verse 3: And Moses said, I will now turn aside
387
00:18:11.190 --> 00:18:14.370
and see this great sight why the bush is not burnt.
388
00:18:14.370 --> 00:18:17.490
Verse 4: And when the Lord saw that he turned aside
389
00:18:17.490 --> 00:18:21.090
to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush
390
00:18:21.090 --> 00:18:24.210
and said, Moses, Moses.
391
00:18:24.210 --> 00:18:26.490
And he said, here I am. Verse 5:
392
00:18:26.490 --> 00:18:28.740
And he said, draw not nigh hither:
393
00:18:28.740 --> 00:18:32.130
put off thy shoes from off thy feet for the place
394
00:18:32.130 --> 00:18:35.130
whereon thou standest is holy ground.
395
00:18:36.060 --> 00:18:39.840
He was 80 years old when he was finally ready
396
00:18:39.840 --> 00:18:41.580
for this divine encounter.
397
00:18:41.580 --> 00:18:43.530
And verse 6 says -
398
00:18:43.530 --> 00:18:47.070
Moreover, he said, I am the God of thy father, the God
399
00:18:47.070 --> 00:18:50.010
of Abraham, the God of
Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
400
00:18:50.010 --> 00:18:53.760
And Moses hid his face for he
was afraid to look upon God.
401
00:18:53.760 --> 00:18:56.070
Verse 7: And the Lord said,
402
00:18:56.070 --> 00:18:57.870
I have surely seen the affliction
403
00:18:57.870 --> 00:18:59.490
of my people which are in Egypt,
404
00:18:59.490 --> 00:19:02.460
and I've heard their cry by
reason of their task masters
405
00:19:02.460 --> 00:19:04.140
for I know their sorrows.
406
00:19:04.140 --> 00:19:07.260
Verse 8: And I am come down to deliver them out
407
00:19:07.260 --> 00:19:08.820
of the hand of the Egyptians
408
00:19:08.820 --> 00:19:12.510
and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land
409
00:19:12.510 --> 00:19:15.420
and a large, unto a land flowing with milk
410
00:19:15.420 --> 00:19:18.895
and honey, unto the place of the Canaanites and the Hittites
411
00:19:18.895 --> 00:19:20.940
and the Amorites and the Perizzites
412
00:19:20.940 --> 00:19:23.520
and the Hivites and the Jubusites.
413
00:19:23.520 --> 00:19:25.020
Verse 9: Now
414
00:19:25.020 --> 00:19:27.810
therefore, behold the cry of the children
415
00:19:27.810 --> 00:19:29.370
of Israel has come unto me
416
00:19:29.370 --> 00:19:32.820
and I have seen also the oppression wherewith the Egyptians
417
00:19:32.820 --> 00:19:34.200
oppress them.
418
00:19:34.200 --> 00:19:36.450
Verse 10: come now therefore,
419
00:19:36.450 --> 00:19:39.720
and I will send thee unto Pharaoh
420
00:19:39.720 --> 00:19:41.310
that thou must bring it forth
421
00:19:41.310 --> 00:19:44.070
the people, the children of Israel out of Egypt.
422
00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:50.480
He was 80 years old, but he was finally ready.
423
00:19:50.490 --> 00:19:53.310
My friends, he was about to enter the golden years
424
00:19:53.310 --> 00:19:54.840
of his life.
425
00:19:54.840 --> 00:19:57.750
This was going to be the
greatest most powerful
426
00:19:57.750 --> 00:19:58.800
season of his life.
427
00:19:58.800 --> 00:20:01.290
And it was going to start at age 80.
428
00:20:01.290 --> 00:20:04.290
For 40 years he had been emptied of himself.
429
00:20:04.290 --> 00:20:05.790
Now he was ready.
430
00:20:05.790 --> 00:20:08.550
And when you come to Exodus 4:10,
431
00:20:08.550 --> 00:20:10.770
we find his new beginning.
432
00:20:10.770 --> 00:20:14.610
and Moses said unto the Lord - O my Lord, I'm not eloquent,
433
00:20:14.610 --> 00:20:16.290
neither heretofor
434
00:20:16.290 --> 00:20:18.780
nor since thou has
spoken unto thy servant,
435
00:20:18.780 --> 00:20:22.320
but I'm slow of speech
and of a slow tongue.
436
00:20:22.320 --> 00:20:23.550
Well, that's kind of hysterical
437
00:20:23.550 --> 00:20:25.380
because earlier in life he was mighty in
438
00:20:25.380 --> 00:20:27.270
words and mighty indeed.
439
00:20:27.270 --> 00:20:31.290
But now for 40 years he has
been wandering the desert,
440
00:20:31.290 --> 00:20:33.300
primarily fellow shipping with sheep.
441
00:20:33.300 --> 00:20:35.970
He's lost his eloquence. He knows that.
442
00:20:36.930 --> 00:20:39.150
And in verse 11, the Lord said unto him,
443
00:20:39.150 --> 00:20:42.540
Who hath made man's mouth or who maketh the dumb or deaf
444
00:20:42.540 --> 00:20:45.450
or the seen or the blind? Have not I the Lord.
445
00:20:45.450 --> 00:20:49.750
Verse 12: Now therefore go and I will be with thy mouth
446
00:20:49.750 --> 00:20:54.370
and teach the what thou shall say - which means - Moses,
447
00:20:54.370 --> 00:20:58.780
I will qualify you even if you
think you're not qualified.
448
00:20:58.780 --> 00:21:02.800
I will enable you even if
you're 80, you're about
449
00:21:02.800 --> 00:21:05.410
to enter the most powerful season of your life.
450
00:21:05.410 --> 00:21:07.720
And Moses ending
451
00:21:07.720 --> 00:21:10.690
is described in Deuteronomy 34:7 which says -
452
00:21:10.690 --> 00:21:14.260
Moses was 120 years old when he died.
453
00:21:14.260 --> 00:21:17.620
Are you ready for this?
And his eye was not dim
454
00:21:17.620 --> 00:21:20.740
nor his natural force abated.
455
00:21:22.270 --> 00:21:25.210
Now my friends, that's
what God wants for you.
456
00:21:25.210 --> 00:21:28.630 line:15%
And if you say, well, I'm 80,
you know, I'm just too old
457
00:21:28.630 --> 00:21:30.070 line:15%
to get started - forget that,
458
00:21:30.070 --> 00:21:32.740 line:15%
forget that, forget that. You're 80, that's a great age
459
00:21:32.740 --> 00:21:34.810 line:15%
for you to have a new encounter, for you
460
00:21:34.810 --> 00:21:37.990 line:15%
to have a new empowerment, for
you to have a new assignment.
461
00:21:37.990 --> 00:21:40.090 line:15%
And not only that, God wants you to live
462
00:21:40.090 --> 00:21:41.170 line:15%
to the end of your life.
463
00:21:41.170 --> 00:21:44.080
If Moses could live to the point
464
00:21:44.080 --> 00:21:45.820
that when he died his eye was not dim
465
00:21:45.820 --> 00:21:50.530
and his natural force is not abated, then you can do it too.
466
00:21:50.530 --> 00:21:52.900 line:15%
We're told in Psalm 84:7 - We're
467
00:21:52.900 --> 00:21:54.730 line:15%
to go from strength to strength.
468
00:21:54.730 --> 00:21:58.390 line:15%
God wants you to go out in a
blaze of glory, not an old,
469
00:21:58.390 --> 00:22:00.370 line:15%
weak sick person.
470
00:22:00.370 --> 00:22:02.590 line:15%
Demonstrate God's grace
471
00:22:02.590 --> 00:22:04.690 line:15%
and be a trophy all the way to the end
472
00:22:04.690 --> 00:22:09.370 line:15%
and set an example for others
who are following behind you.
473
00:22:09.370 --> 00:22:11.530 line:15%
Let's be like Moses.
474
00:22:11.530 --> 00:22:14.080
Hey, I'm outta time, but I'll be back in just a moment
475
00:22:14.080 --> 00:22:16.540
and then I have more to say to you.
476
00:22:16.540 --> 00:22:19.540
The Lord promises to
satisfy us with long life
477
00:22:19.540 --> 00:22:22.090
and salvation so we can rest assured,
478
00:22:22.090 --> 00:22:24.160
aging is not something to dread.
479
00:22:24.160 --> 00:22:26.110
If you're not satisfied with your life,
480
00:22:26.110 --> 00:22:27.580
your life is not over.
481
00:22:27.580 --> 00:22:30.520
God will speak to you
and use you at any age.
482
00:22:30.520 --> 00:22:32.200

508
00:23:50.450 --> 00:23:52.760
Hey, this is Rick
Renner and I am in Tulsa.
509
00:23:52.760 --> 00:23:54.170
And look who's with me.
510
00:23:54.170 --> 00:23:57.890
This is part of our Tulsa staff. Around the whole world
511
00:23:57.890 --> 00:24:02.060
we have about 300 employees that work in this ministry
512
00:24:02.060 --> 00:24:03.920
and that is amazing to me.
513
00:24:03.920 --> 00:24:05.900
Just look what the Lord has done
514
00:24:05.900 --> 00:24:08.480
and we're reaching people all
over the world in our various
515
00:24:08.480 --> 00:24:12.890
offices, but this is the
Tulsa team and they are heroes
516
00:24:12.890 --> 00:24:16.790
and they work every day in this building to minister to you
517
00:24:16.790 --> 00:24:18.200
by sending you resources,
518
00:24:18.200 --> 00:24:20.990
taking your calls, praying for you.
519
00:24:20.990 --> 00:24:22.340
And we're praying people, aren't we?
520
00:24:22.340 --> 00:24:25.250
Yes - we really are praying people,
521
00:24:25.250 --> 00:24:28.490
but God gave us this facility
522
00:24:28.490 --> 00:24:29.900
and we're trying to pay it off.
523
00:24:29.900 --> 00:24:34.900 line:15%
And now we've already paid off 87%.
524
00:24:34.970 --> 00:24:37.070 line:15%
We call it the Ministry Expansion Project
525
00:24:37.070 --> 00:24:39.860 line:15%
because once we're finished
paying this debt off,
526
00:24:39.860 --> 00:24:43.580
it's gonna free finances so we
can take the trusted teaching
527
00:24:43.580 --> 00:24:46.100 line:15%
to the Bible even further
to the ends of the earth.
528
00:24:46.100 --> 00:24:47.900 line:15%
And that's our call.
529
00:24:47.900 --> 00:24:50.450 line:15%
And if you're already a
member of the Giving Team
530
00:24:50.450 --> 00:24:53.570 line:15%
to help us retire the debt
on this building, I just want
531
00:24:53.570 --> 00:24:56.630 line:15%
to say thank you and we
all say thank you to you.
532
00:24:56.630 --> 00:24:59.330 line:15%
And if you're not a part
of the Giving Team yet,
533
00:24:59.330 --> 00:25:01.520 line:15%
I invite you today to join our Giving Team
534
00:25:01.520 --> 00:25:03.650 line:15%
to help us retire the debt.
535
00:25:03.650 --> 00:25:05.240 line:15%
It's really not about retiring the debt,
536
00:25:05.240 --> 00:25:07.520 line:15%
it's about releasing finances
537
00:25:07.520 --> 00:25:09.650 line:15%
so we can take the trusted
teaching of the Bible
538
00:25:09.650 --> 00:25:12.560 line:15%
to more people that are crying out for it.
539
00:25:12.560 --> 00:25:14.390 line:15%
So thank you for being a part of the team
540
00:25:14.390 --> 00:25:17.780 line:15%
and please pray about joining our ministry team
541
00:25:17.780 --> 00:25:20.390 line:15%
to retire the debt on this facility.
542
00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:35.480 line:15%
Well, today we've been
looking at the life of Moses
543
00:25:35.480 --> 00:25:38.000 line:15%
and we see that Moses had had an encounter
544
00:25:38.000 --> 00:25:39.950 line:15%
with God when he was 40,
545
00:25:39.950 --> 00:25:42.080 line:15%
really changed the course of his life.
546
00:25:42.080 --> 00:25:45.230 line:15%
And then when he was 80, he had the next encounter with God,
547
00:25:45.230 --> 00:25:47.150 line:15%
which was radical
548
00:25:47.150 --> 00:25:51.560 line:15%
and really brought him into
the golden season of his life.
549
00:25:51.560 --> 00:25:54.890 line:15%
My friends, it started at age 80.
550
00:25:54.890 --> 00:25:56.150
Now I dunno how old you are,
551
00:25:56.150 --> 00:25:59.120
but if you're a senior citizen, rather than say - Well,
552
00:25:59.120 --> 00:26:02.870 line:15%
my best years are behind me, you need to say, Hey, I'm ready
553
00:26:02.870 --> 00:26:04.610 line:15%
for a new encounter with God
554
00:26:04.610 --> 00:26:06.830 line:15%
that will set me on a new trajectory.
555
00:26:06.830 --> 00:26:10.040 line:15%
And believe that what is
in front of you is going
556
00:26:10.040 --> 00:26:12.020 line:15%
to be the golden season of your life.
557
00:26:12.020 --> 00:26:14.540 line:15%
It's gonna be the greatest fruit producing
558
00:26:14.540 --> 00:26:16.010 line:15%
years of your life.
559
00:26:16.010 --> 00:26:19.430 line:15%
And you need to believe that
when you leave this world
560
00:26:19.430 --> 00:26:20.930 line:15%
that your eye will not be dim
561
00:26:20.930 --> 00:26:24.200
and your natural force will not be abated.
562
00:26:24.200 --> 00:26:26.060
If it could happen for Moses,
563
00:26:26.060 --> 00:26:28.160
then why can't it happen for you?
564
00:26:28.160 --> 00:26:30.050
You just need to lay claim to it
565
00:26:30.050 --> 00:26:31.670
and receive God's blessing
566
00:26:31.670 --> 00:26:34.910
to renew you physically and he'll do it.
567
00:26:34.910 --> 00:26:37.280 line:15%

00:26:54.870 --> 00:26:58.470 line:15%

NOW!! - in Jesus name, Amen.
579
00:27:04.800 --> 00:27:06.390 line:15%
I'll see you tomorrow,
580
00:27:06.390 --> 00:27:09.660
but until then, remember Ecclesiastes 8:4, it says,
581
00:27:09.660 --> 00:27:13.380
"Where the word of a king is, there is power."
582
00:27:13.380 --> 00:27:15.660
If you've never received Jesus as your Savior
583
00:27:15.660 --> 00:27:19.380 line:15%
and Lord, now is the time for
you to experience a new life
584
00:27:19.380 --> 00:27:21.000
Jesus has to give you.
585
00:27:21.000 --> 00:27:25.080 line:15%
Pray this prayer with me right now - Lord I repent of my sin
586
00:27:25.080 --> 00:27:29.340
and receive you as my Savior
and Lord. Wash away my sin
587
00:27:29.340 --> 00:27:31.770
and make me completely new.
588
00:27:31.770 --> 00:27:34.920
I thank you that my sin is removed
589
00:27:34.920 --> 00:27:39.750
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.
590
00:27:39.750 --> 00:27:43.080
I faithfully promise that
I will serve you as my Lord
591
00:27:43.080 --> 00:27:44.850
for the rest of my life
592
00:27:44.850 --> 00:27:45.850
Amen.
593
00:27:46.800 --> 00:27:49.020
