Lord of the Lord: Part 3 - Joy Restoration / Dealing With Discouragement

Sunday, July 23, 2023 Bryan Hudson 0 Comments




LISTEN TO PODCAST


Psalm 16:11 NIV, You have made known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.

Psalm 51:12, “Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit”
Sometimes we need restoration of joy because of sin against God

Psalm 85:4, Restore us, O God of our salvation, And cause Your anger toward us to cease. 5 Will You be angry with us forever? Will You prolong Your anger to all generations? 6 Will You not revive us again, that Your people may rejoice in You? 7 Show us Your mercy, Lord, And grant us Your salvation. 8 I will hear what God the Lord will speak, For He will speak peace to His people and to His saints; But let them not turn back to folly.

• Revival is always first personal
• We cannot export what we don’t have
• Joy always follows revival, which is refocus on the presence of the Lord.
  Remember, “You will fill me with joy in your presence.” (Psalm16:11)

Sources of the Dis-ease of Discouragement
Interpersonal: Psalm 41:9 (NLT), Even my friend, the one I trusted completely, the one who shared my food, has turned against me.

Institutional: Job, school, etc.

Internal: Worry, mental distress, unrestrained thoughts, etc.

RELEASE The Greater One Within! (Application to Real World Matters: Affirmative Action, etc.)

Sunday, July 02, 2023 Bryan Hudson 0 Comments




LISTEN TO PODCAST

1 John 4:4, You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. 5 They are of the world. Therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them.

Real World Application
• Affirmative Action was not about elevating unqualified Black people over qualified White people.
• It is about selecting from a pool of diverse qualified people.
• It is about AFFIRMING the value of people, especially marginalized people and taking ACTION in support of them.
• It is about creating opportunities

The concept of affirming others and taking positive actions on their behalf is scriptural:

"Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared..." (Nehemiah 8:10)

Scriptures related to affirming others and taking action

Mark 12:31, Love your neighbor as yourself.

Galatians 6:2, Carry each other’s burdens and so you will fulfill the law of Christ.

Proverbs 3:27, Don't withhold good from someone who deserves it, when it is in your power to do so

Philippians 2:4, Instead of each person watching out for their own good, watch out for what is better for others.

Luke 3:10-11, The crowds asked him, 'What then should we do?' He answered, 'Whoever has two shirts must share with the one who has none, and whoever has food must do the same.’

1 John 3:17, But if someone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but refuses to help — how can the love of God dwell in a person like that?

Acts 20:35, In everything I have shown you that, by working hard, we must help the weak. In this way we remember the Lord Jesus' words: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.’

So in this environment we must remind ourselves that the GREATER ONE lives within us.

We trust God and we also look for Him to work in our circumstances, rearrange circumstances, remove ungodly people, and bring whatever is needed to make a difference.

This is what is meant by the word “RELEASE.”
