  Speaker 2: It can happen. Even if you do die, He will

  Speaker 2: raise you up. And I'll add at the appropriate hour
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: during the resurrection, that is for the holy and just
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: people of God, the saints of God. He will raise
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: you up no matter how unworthy you feel. On the
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: last day of this earth, Jesus said, who comes to me,
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: I will by no means cast out. Aren't you glad
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: that the invitation is clear that if you come to Jesus,
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: if you are you are laboring and heavy laden, he
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: will give you rest. He said, you can take his
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: yoke upon him and learn of him. His yoke is easy,
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: and his burden his light. You shall find rest unto
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: your souls. No matter how old or young you are,
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: no matter how mature or immature you are in terms
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: of your development in years, God is welcoming us into
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: a relationship with him that will transcend this earth. And finally,
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: finally we will see him as he is so Let's
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: find some lessons in this invitation that God has given
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: to us. Let's begin actually with the text that I
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: cited are actually quoted from Matthew chapter eleven. You can
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: see how deep this is in my spirit about the
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: invitation verses twenty eight to thirty, Come unto me, all
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: of me, and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: Isaiah chapter fifty five. We see a similar a similar
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: invitation in verse one. Hey, all who are thirsty, come
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: unto the water. Jesus is the water of life. To
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: be drunken freely. Brothers and sisters. You hear what he
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: said to the woman at well. He said, if you
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: drink of me, you will never thirst again. You who
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: have no money, see money is scarce sometimes in some
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: of the people's lives in these last days. But he's
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: saying without money, you don't have to be rich and
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: increased with goods like the Church of laih Decia. Not
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: that you can come without money and you can buy
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: and eat because God has given you. He has paid
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: it all. Jesus paid it all. That's what it is.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: The song is correct that all to him I owe,
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: Sin has left a crimson stain, and he has made it,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: made us whiter than snow, really and truly so without money,
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: without price. He's saying, come on in and eat, come
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: on in and drink, and I will make provision for you.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: God is saying that his invitation is open and accessible.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: You don't have to wait on a line, an everlasting line.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: You don't have to sign up a a and what
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: do you call it a contract? You don't have to
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: put in get a recommendation from somebody. You understand where
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: we're going with this, like, God is not putting you
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: in a position where you need an application. He said
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: that it is open and accessible. He calls the weary.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: Have you ever been weary? Brothers and sisters? He calls
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: the thirsty. I've been talking a lot this morning, and
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: I'm thirsty. And there's a cup right there. But I
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: don't want you to have to wait for me to
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: drink from it. But he says, you will never thirst again,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: and the burdened you will come without restriction. This is
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: the invitation that God is making to all of us today.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Fill in your name here and So the action step then,
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: in response to this is to respond personally today, thank
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: you Jesus for making this invitation. I'm going to take
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: you up on your offer. Bring your burdens to Jesus,
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: accept his rest. Can I say it another way, Bring
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: your burdens to Jesus and exchange those for rest the
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: rest that Jesus gives. Yes lesson number two. From John
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: chapter six and verse thirty seven, the Bible reads, nobody,
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: no one can come unto me except the Father, which
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: has sent me draws him. You get that no one
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: can come to Jesus except that the Father draws you
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: to Jesus. Well, I'm thankful that when we do get
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: to him again, he said in verse thirty seven, him
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: that cometh to me, I will in no wise cast out.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: God is pulling you toward him not to then reject you.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: There are people who are still feeling that God is
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: going to reject them. The only way that we are
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: rejected in this scenario is if we are disqualifying ourselves
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: by trying to hold onto our own righteousness, by trying
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: to do this on our own terms, by trying to
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: establish the relationship based on our own thinking rather than
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: what God has established through Christ. You understand. So God
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: invites or initiates the relationship by drawing us here, and
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: then Jesus receives every person who responds. I can see
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: Jesus now standing at the front as the altar call
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: is made by the Holy Ghost. Let those who are
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: thirst come, those who've ever been weary or heavy laiden,
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: you come. All of you who have ever sinned and
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: felt the guilt of being separated from God, you come.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: And I can see Jesus standing at the front of
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: that facility and welcoming people into relationship as the Holy
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: Ghost makes the call, as the Father holds out in
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: so as you are my beloved son, you are my
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: beloved daughter, and whom I am well pleased, Just come, come, Come.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: And then Jesus does not reject anyone who responds to
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: the call. And so in action, we want to yield
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: to the spirit's call today, stop resisting and move fully
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: toward the call of the voice of God. The invitation
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: is given to all whosoever will let him take the
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: water of life freely. That's coming in from the book
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: Steps to Christ, Page fifty five isn't an interesting Page
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: fifty five saying call from Isaiah fifty five. I see
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: stuff like that, Come and accept God's invitation. Peace.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us listening. Friends. Always remember we cannot
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: live by bread alone, but by every word that comes
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: from the mouth of God. This has been your daily
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: portion with El David Harris. Make it a great day. Yeah,
