• 4:08
  Speaker 1: sure what the count is, Perhaps twenty or thirty or so.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Are more on our video side.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: One Voice in the Wilderness again on our YouTube channel.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: But nevertheless, we are in a new series that we
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: begun a few weeks ago on God, the government, Church
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: and state. God, Government, Church and State. And it is
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: our contention that and we base it on the biblical
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: record and undeniable historical amen events of course, that God
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: directly intervenes a man in the affairs of men. Amen,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: this is his world. He's the creator, he's the maker.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: And I know we, as rebels from our heart, want
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: to cast off, Amen, the restraint a man cast off
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: his sovereign rule from us. And we want to go
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: our own way and do our own thing. But God
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: has determined that he's going to save a man some
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: of us. He's going to save some of us, and
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: that is exactly what he's doing a man with his
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: plan of redemption that he has determined in himself before
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: the foundation of the world. And so in order to
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: ensure that his plan his purpose a man everything that
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: he is a man predestined to come to pass in
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: order to a man see to it that it a
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: man comes to fruition, just as he has a man
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: ordained it to be.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: He must by all.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: Means intervene a man in the affairs of man, because
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: our way is not his way, our thoughts are not
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: his thoughts.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: Amen. And we are rebels by heart.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: We are those who are by nature are enemies of God.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: And so God, a man, friends us, he loves us,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: he comes down to us.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: And he again interacts and intervenes a man again, ultimately
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: a man, to bring about what He has purposed in
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: himself to do, and that is to save a people
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: for his great namesake. So today we're going to look
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: at another example of God's direct divine intervention, direct divine intervention,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: and we're going to be again in the Book of Genesis,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: chapter number forty one. So if you have your Bibles,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: you can go with us there. And so again in
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: our previous podcast, we examine from the scriptures how God
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: divinely intervened in the affairs of two different government heads
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: of state, a man of their respective states, in order
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: to preserve, in order to protect, in order to a
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: man orchestrate the governance of men, a man me or
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: mortal men, a man to ensure that God predetermined again
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: his predetermined, predestined plan of salvation, his plan to redeem,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: his plan to save a man a people for his
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: glory on her majesty, would not be a man interfered
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: with really by mere mortal men. And no matter what
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: we do a man, we cannot thwart, we cannot overthrow,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: we cannot a man dispel in any way what God
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: is already designed and determined to do from the foundation
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: of the world. So two times twice we saw in
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: the pilgrimage of Abraham and Genesis chapter twelven and Genis
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: chapter twenty, Abraham and Sarah.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: That is God.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Personally intervening a man with these kings, the Pharaoh of
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Egypt and a Bimelech, perhaps that was a title, but
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: he was the king of Gharar. And God in each
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: of these cases spoke directly to these government officials, government
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: heads of state. Amen, to ensure that they did not
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: cause what He has already purposed to do to again
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: be interrupted or to a man be overthrown. Amen. And
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: so please understand that there's no king, there is no ruler.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: I don't care who they are today, past, present, of future,
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: a man who is not under.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: The purview and the power.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: Of the almighty sovereign King of the universe. And in
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: our present day, of course, there is a very erroneous
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: and faulty notion that God does not rule, that God
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: does not care, that God is not involved, that God
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: does not interact, as it were, in the hearts of men,
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: in the ways of man, and that he is not orchestrating,
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: and he's not ordering the affairs of our seemingly uncertain
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: world that is filled with war and chaos and destruction
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: and death and misery and disease, all of that. It
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: seems as though in their minds, again erroneously, that God
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: is not involved, that God is not orchestrate, because they
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: I believe. Of course it has to be. So.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: There's only one, well.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: Of two possibilities here for people holding to that particular
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: mindset or notion, and it is it is. It is
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: is simply because they have not read the word of God,
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: they have not believed the word of God, or both.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: If you've read the Word of God, you don't believe, Amen,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: then you will cleave to this ideal notion that man
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: is in charge, that governments of this world are in charge,
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: and that we are orchestrating, that we are in charge
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: of the future, that we can save the planet, and
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: we can do this, and we cane, no, no, no, no,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: we're not Amen. Read the word, believe the word Amen,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: And then of course let not your heart be troubled.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: The Bible tells us that the king's heart Proverbs twenty
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: one to one, is in the hand of the Lord,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: like the rivers of water. He turns it wherever he wishes,
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: wherever he pleases. So again we turn to the book
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: of the beginnings, chapter forty one of Genesis, where we
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: will again see how the God of Creation, the God
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: who reigns and rules in the kingdom of Men over
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: all of the kingdoms of this world. We will see
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: how he divinely intervened in the mind, in the heart
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: of the king of Egypt, to once again bring about
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: his plan of a man of redemption. Genesis forty one,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: beginning verse number one, came to pass at the end
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: of two full years that Pharaoh dreamed, and behold, he
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: stood by the river, and behold, there came up out
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: of the river seven well favored kind ki n E
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: and the king James version, that is cow Amen. And
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: they were fat fleshed, and they fed in a metal,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: And behold, seven other kind came up after them out
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: of the river, ill favored and leaned fleshed, And behold
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: by the other kind kind brother up on the brook
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: or the brink brother of the river, and the ill
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: favored and lean fleshed kind did eat up the seven
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: well favored and fat kind. So Pharaoh awoke, and he
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: slept and dreamed a second time, and behold, seven ears
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good,
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: and behold seven thin ears, and blasted with the east
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: wind sprung up after them. And the seven thin ears
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: and behold it was a dream. Let me just pause here.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: I want to take you to Job thirty three. You
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: don't have to turn in your bibles, but take note
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: of this amn fact a man that the Bible teaches.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: The Bible states here rather and Joe thirty three, verse fourteen,
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: that God may speak in one way or another, yet
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: man does not perceive it in a dream. In a
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: vision of the night when deep sleep falls upon men
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: while slumbering on their beds, then He opens the ears
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: of men and seals their instruction in order to turn
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: man from his deed and conceal pride from man. God
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: a man in times past. And this is not to
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: say that God does not speak by way of dreams today,
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: but prior to us receiving the full revelation of God.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: God did oftentimes come to men in dreams, and that
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: did not exclude in any way, and perhaps perhaps more
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: than any other, God did this with men who were
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: a man, heads of state, heads of government, in order
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: to again ensure that they did not run a foul
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: a man of his a man a plan and purpose
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: amen that he has in the world. And again they
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: didn't have to be righteous, they didn't have to be godly,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: they didn't have to be a man of fearing God
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: fearing men in order for God to a man interact
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: and intervene a man. And perhaps more often than not,
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: they were all well, I can say all of them,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: but most of them what we see in the Bible
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: were rogue leaders, were leaders who were and rulers who
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: were a man again, sinful, rebellious, and insistent upon going
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: their own way. They were people and men of idolatrous nations,
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: nations of people who a man, were worshipers of other
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: gods and had no regard or little regard for the
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: God of Heaven. But yet God still showed himself.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: To be who he is.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: So please understand again that God intervened and spoke to
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: this king by way of a dream, to reveal unto
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: him something that he a man, is doing in the earth.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: But Pharaoh did not understand. Twice he was awakened out
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: of his dream. And Bible tells us go further in
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: verse number eight, a man that it came to pass
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: in the morning that his spirit was troubled. And he
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt and
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: all the wise men thereof, and Pharaoh told them his dream,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: and there was none that could interpret them. Unto Pharaoh,
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: two dreams, two separate dreams that none of his wise
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: men nor magicians could a man decipher interpret.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: So then the Bible tells us in verse.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Number nine, then spake the chief butler unto Pharaoh's saying,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: I do remember my faults this day. Now, let me
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: just interject here, because here's a very very much a
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: case in point where God's providence again is at work,
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: and the providential hand of God it's moving not only
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: upon this Pharaoh but also Amen in the life of
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: his servant Joseph, whom he has sent down to Egypt.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: Those of you who know the story, let me just
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: quickly just reviewed very quickly the reason why this is happening.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: Of course, the Bible tells us the beginning in verse
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: number one is at the end of two years. What
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: two years is Toby we're referring to here, of course,
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: it's two years of imprisonment for Joseph. You know the story,
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: those of youew familiar with the Bibles, how he was
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: sold into slavery into Egypt by his own brethren, Amen.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: And he was taken into Potiphar's house as a slave,
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: and he was elevated because God was with him, to
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: be the head of Potiphar's house. But Potiphar's wife had
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: a lustful spirit of adultery that was in her heart. Amen,
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: And she went after Joseph, and on one day had
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: the opportunity to be alone with him in the house,
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: and so she attempted to a man cast herself upon him.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: And those of you, again who were familiar with the story,
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: know how Joseph ran from her a man presence, and
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: he left his garment with her, And so she.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: Accused him falsely.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: Of course, that's who the devil is. He's a slanderer,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: he's a liar, he's an accuser of the brethren. So
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: she falsely accused him of attempting to rape her, and
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: so Joseph was cast into prison. And so while he
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: was there, the butler and the baker, two of Pharaoh's servants,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: were also a man cast into prison because they offended
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: the Pharaoh. But while they were there serving out a
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: sentence a man, each of them had dreams as well,
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: and so they were disturbed by their dreams, and they
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: didn't know what they meant. And the Bible teaches us
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: a man that a man. Joseph interpreted both of these
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: servants' dreams respectively, and just as he had interpreted them,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: they came to pass precisely in the manner that he did.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: One of the servants, the baker, was hanged, and the butler,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: who was the cup barer of Pharaoh, he was reinstated
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: to his position serving the Pharaoh. And now this man,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: in version of a nine, even though Joseph asked that
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: he remember Joseph, Amen, when he got back into his position, he.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: Forgot all about him.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: So two years had passed, and now the chief butler
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden remembers, Amen, what had happened two
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: years earlier. And so in verse number nine again he
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: says he spoke, he speaks, he speaks up to pharaohs.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: I remember my faults this day, how I had offended you.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: Pharaoh was wroth with his servants, and he put me
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: in ward in the Captain of the Guard's house, both
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: me and the chief baker, and we dreamed of dream
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: And one night he and I and we dreamed each
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: according to the interpretation of his dream. And there was
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: with us a young man who was a Hebrew, a man,
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: a servant of the Captain of the guard. And we
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams, to
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: each man according to his dream. And he did interpret
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: and man, it came to pass as he told us,
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: or as he interpreted to us. So it was me
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: he restored to my office, and him he hanged. So
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: then verse fourteen, the Bible tells us here that Pharaoh
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: sent and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: of the dungeon. He shaved himself, changed his raiment came
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: in unto Pharaoh. Pharaoh said, unto Joseph, I've heard or
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: I've dreamed of dream, brother, and there's none that can
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: interpret it. And I have heard say of you that
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: you can understand the dream to interpret it. So Joseph,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: the Bible says, answered Pharaoh, saying, it is not in me. Amen,
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: God shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace. Let's be
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: mindful here that any gift that we have, supposedly that
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: we have, it is of God. It is from God,
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: and it belongs to God.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: A man.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: The Bible teaches about the gifts of the spirit. They
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: belong to God, they belong to Amen, the Spirit. And
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: it is he who a man gives them out a
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: man as he a man sees fit. And so Joseph,
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: rightly a man gives the glory and credit, praise and
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: honor to God. He said, it's not me, it's not
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: in me. It's not mine. Amen, it doesn't belong to me.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: It is God, God of Heaven. He will give Pharaoh
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: and answer peace. So Pharaoh said to Joseph my dream.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: And so he recounts the dream to Pharaoh, how he
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: saw the cows, and he saw the corn a man
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: that was a man devoured by the weaker and lesser.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: And so at the end of recounting this dream, a
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: man that he had these dreams rather to dreams that
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: he had. A man to Joseph, a man. We go
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: down to man. Verse number twenty eight. A man, Joseph,
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: a man, takes up this word to begin to interpret
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: the dream to Pharaoh. And by the way, before he
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: speaks a man, it's just a marvelous thing. How while
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: Pharaoh is speaking, While Pharaoh is recounting the dream to Joseph,
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: God at the same time a man, again divinely intervening.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: He first gave the dreams to Pharaoh. Now he gives
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: to Joseph the interpretation. Joseph didn't know what Pharaoh had dreamed.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: Joseph. See, God doesn't listen on the spot, on the spot.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: And that's why the Lord told his disciples. He said,
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: when they bring you up before the council, he said,
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: don't meditate beforehand, which you gonna say, Amen, because I
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: got you. I got you, and so amen God. See
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: this is what it belongs to God. God gets the
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: glory in the end. This is what we have to
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: trust God, a man. We have to believe him, and
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: we have to know that he's with us, and that
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: he's for us, Amen, just as he was with Joseph.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: And so verse twenty eight. This is the thing which
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: I have spoken unto Pharaoh. Oh, I'm sorry, let me
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: back up. I went down too far Amen, Verse twenty five.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: So Joseph, in interpreting the dream, he says, unto Pharaoh,
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: the dream of Pharaoh is one. These two events that
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: you have dream is really one thing that is about
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: to happen. God has showed Pharaoh what he is about
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: to do. The seven good kind or cows, are seven years,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: and the seven good ears are seven years. The dream
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: is one. The seven thin and ill favorite kind that
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: came up at them are seven years, and the seven
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: empty ears blasted with the seven with the east wind
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: are seven years of famine. This is the thing which
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: I have spoken unto Pharaoh. What God is about to do.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: He shows to Pharaoh. Behold, there come seven years of
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt, and there
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: shall arise after them seven years of famine, and all
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt,
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: and the famine shall consume the land, and the plenty
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: shall not be known in the land by reason of
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: the famine that follows, for it shall be very grievous.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: And for that the dream was doubled unto Pharaoh twice.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: It is because the thing is established by God and
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: God we shortly, Oh, I love it, I love it,
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: I love it. God will shortly bring it to pass. Listen, listen,
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: please see, Please understand. When God gives revelation, when God
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: speaks about what he's going to do, what he's showing
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: us he's going to do, you can just rest in it.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: Joseph is speaking with confidence. Joseph is speaking with assurance.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: Joseph is speaking with authority. He's not stuttering, he's not stammering. Eve, no, no, no, no.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: He is fully confident that God has given to him.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: And again, it's not Joseph, it's not his gift. Amen,
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: it's not his interpretation. It's not his own private interpretation. Amen.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: As he sees it. Amen, he just simply speaks as
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: God reveals it to him, and he knows, he knows
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: with an a authoritative assurance that this is God going
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: to happen Pharaoh. Amen, God will shortly bring it to pass.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: Now therefore, now, now that's the end of the dream.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: That's the end of the interpretation of the dream. Now comes, Amen.
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: This is where this is where obedience comes into play.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: This is where Amen, we preach the Gospel. We speak
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: what God has spoken. A man, we say what God
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: has said. This is why we warn men to flee
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: from the raft to come, for example, this is why
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: we tell people to repent, a man to honor the Lord,
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: to fear the Lord, to walk in his ways. This
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: is why we amen, Amen, we take up the word.
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: Of God and our mouths.
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: A man, take the Gospel, a man to the ends
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: of the earth, so that men can take heed and
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: prepare for what God has spoken that is coming to pass.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: Paul said, knowing the terror of the Lord, we persuade men.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: So now that you know, Pharaoh, what's going to happen,
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: let me please, let me please give you some advice.
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you what you ought to do. Let
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: me tell you what needs to happen in order to
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: a man save the lives of not only you and
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: your people. But as we'll see later on, of course,
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: if you know the story, a man all in the
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: world at that time had to come to Egypt, a
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: man in order a man to survive, because the famine
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: was severe throughout a man in the known world at
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: that particular time. So now here's the advice. A man
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: in consent. See, God doesn't do anything unless he a man,
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: gives us an opportunity, a man to repent, in order
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: to turn, in order to a man, come on over,
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: a man, to a man the side of peace and prosperity,
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: and rest an opportunity to come into the dark of safety,
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: as it were a man.
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: And so.
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: God is going to not only revealed to Pharaoh, not
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: only is he rather revealing to Pharaoh. Excuse me with
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: the interpretation of the dream by Joseph. Not only is
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: he revealing to Pharaoh what is going to happen, but
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: he's also giving Pharaoh the opportunity a man to do
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: what needs.
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: To be done. Amen, Thank you Jesus.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: And again, all of this is all about God preserving
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: a man, a people for his names Jesse, as he
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: did with Noah, a man. He brought Noah. Noah found
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: grace in the eyes of God, and God saved a remnant.
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: And so he's doing the same right here and right now.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: So let Pharaoh verse thirty three, Amen, look out a
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: man discreeting wise and set him over the land of Egypt.
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint officers over
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: the land and take up the fifth part of the
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: land of Egypt in the seven plenteous years, and let
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: them gather all the food of those good years that come,
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, and
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: let them keep food in the cities, and that food
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: shall be for store to the land against the seven
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: years of famine which shall be in the land of Egypt,
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: that the land perished not through the famine. All this
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: is good, solid advice. Amen, this is good. And see,
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: God is the one who orchestrates, the God who is sovereign,
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: the God is in control, the God who knows the future,
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: the God who has predetermined and predestined, the God who orchestrates.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: He is now a man revealing through his servant, and
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: he is directly intervening. Don't forget this, don't cast it away.
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: A man. God is directly intervening right now in the
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: affairs of this nation, of this king, of this government. Amen,
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: in order to orchestrate, in order to bring about what
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: he has purpose to do, and also again for the
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: greater purpose of his long term plan of redemption and salvation. So, Pharaoh,
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: this is good advice. This is sound, solid advice. This
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: is from the God of Heaven, who has shown you
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: what is about to take place. And now He's given
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: you a man a way of escape. When God gives
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: you the way and God opens the door, you better
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: walk in it.
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: Is only one door. There's only one way, Amen, one
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: door into the ark. There's only one Lord, one's faith,
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: one baptism Amen, one God, Amen, one Savior, one Redeemer.
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: Amen. You better take that way. Amen.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: Let them keep food in the cities, and that food
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: shall be for a store in the land against the
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: seven years of of famine, which shall be not which
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: might be, which shall be in the land of Egypt,
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: so that the land, so that the people do not perish.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: The Bible says in verse thirty seven, the thing was
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: good in the eyes of Pharaoh and in the eyes
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: of all these servants.
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: And I can just imagine.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: In my mind how all of the wise men, the magicians,
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: all these people who were on Pharaoh's payroll as it were,
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: they were standing there astonished at this brilliance as they
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: saw it coming and proceeding out of the mouth of Joseph. I.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: It's God, It's God. It's God. To God be the glory. Amen.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: And so the Bible says and man. Pharaoh said into
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: his servants, can we find such an one as this
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: is a man in whom the spirit of God is.
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: Look at the providence of God. Look at the providence
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: of God. And Pharaoh said, unto Joseph, For as much
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: as God hath showed you all of this, there is
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: none so discreet and wise as thou art. Thou shalt
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: be over my house, And according to thy word shall
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: all my people be rude. Only in the throne will
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: I be greater than you Joseph. And Pharaoh said unto Joseph,
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: see I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand and
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: put it upon Joseph's hand, and arrayed upon him a
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain around
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: his neck. And he made him to ride in the
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: second chariot which he had, and they cried before him
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: bow the knee. And he made him Joseph ruler over
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: all the land of Egypt. And Pharaoh said, unto Joseph,
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: I am Pharaoh, and without THEE shall no man lift
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: up his hand afoot in all the land of Egypt.
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zafnath Pania, and he gave
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: him to wife Asanath, the daughter of Potiphara, priest of Honor.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: And Joseph went out over all the land of Egypt.
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh,
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: of Pharaoh and went throughout all the lands of Egypt,
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: and in the seven and I'm almost done, in the
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: seven plenteous years, the earth brought forth by handfuls, just
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: a fulfillment of the word of God. And he gathered
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: up all the food of the seven years which were
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: in the land of Egypt, laid up the food in
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: the cities, the food in the field, which was round
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: about every city, laid he up in the same and
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: Joseph gathered Listen, listen to this. Joseph gathered corn as
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: the sand of the sea, very much until he left numbering,
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: for it was without number, ladies and gentlemen, only God,
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: only God. No, not again, let's not get lost in again.
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: Just the fact that God revealed to Pharaoh a dream.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: But God is fulfilling and bringing about a man again
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: what he has purposed to do. And one of these
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: things that certainly we see here is that God is
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: putting his man second in command over all of the
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: land of Egypt. And again, if you know the story
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: of Joseph, how that when he was taken as a
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: slave by the way, at seventeen years old into the
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: land of Egypt, he was sold into slavery into Potiphar's house,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: Potiphar bought him as a slave a man, and in
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: Potiphar's house Joseph was promoted to the chief a man,
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: a stewart over Potiphar's house. Potiphar didn't pay. The Bible
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: says Potiphar didn't pay attention to anything in his house
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: because he trusted Joseph. And then even after Joseph was accused,
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: falsely accused of rape, attempt at rape brother and thrown
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: into prison, when he was down there, the captain of
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: the prison, the man in charge of the prison, he
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: saw the faithfulness of Joseph, the wisdom of God that
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: was in Joseph, and he put Joseph in charge of prison.
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: And now after Joseph is a man brought up out
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: of the prison, serving two years in prison for something
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: that he.
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: Did not do.
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: God You can't, man, you can't write this stuff.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: You can't write this. You can't you can't make this up.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: Hey man, this is God's providential plan working even when
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: you you don't see it, even when you don't feel it,
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: even when you don't understand it. Oh my God, Oh
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: help us, Jesus, help us, Jesus. Heppens Jesus, help us Jesus.
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: But please understand. Take from this. Take from this, ladies
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: and gentlemen, that there is no king. Again, let me
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: repeat it. There is no king. There's no governor, no president,
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: no prime minister. I don't care if it's a mayor
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: or a dog catcher, whatever. No ruler, past, present or
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: future who's not under the purview and the power of
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: the Almighty sovereign Ruler, King of kings and Lord of lords.
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: No one. The heart of every king is in his hand,
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: and he turns it however he wishes. Now again, for
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: those of you who may be a little bit confused, Wait,
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: wait about all the evil, what about all the weakness?
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: What about all the sinfulness and rebellion that's in the
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: hearts of all of these rulers? And why is there's
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: so much chaos and calamity.
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: In the world.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: Let not your heart be trouble. Even when men are
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: doing what is evil, what is contrary, what is against
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: the will of God. God is still sovereignly in control,
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: and he's still orchestrating, and he's still turning all things,
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: all things, it is all working together, not only for
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: our good, but for His glory. So let not your
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: heart be trouble, that not your.
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: Art be trouble.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: God rules and reigns in the kingdom of men, and
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: he is already determined. And just as we see in
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: the life of Joseph, God intervening a man in the mind,
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: in the heart, in the bedroom of this Pharah, of
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: this king, of this government, head of state.
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: He is still orchestrating right now. Can you see it?
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: Can you see it all? Say? Can you see he's
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: still doing it. He's still doing it.
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: He's sovereign, He's in control. Father, help somebody today to see,
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: help somebody to know that you are God and God alone,
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: and you reign and rule in the kingdom of men,
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: and there's none that can stay Your hands. Be glorified
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: today in Jesus name, we pray and give thanks, Amen
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: and Amen.
