excerpt from Joseph Prince calm
the tragedy is this we get discouraged
we see our economy going down all right
we get discouraged we look at this paper
coming in asking for claims or some debt
we have to pay we get discouraged
we are snared by the visible the visible
is what the devil uses the visible look
at the lump
how is growing look at your report look
at what the report says and it’s all
visible we lose sight of the invisible
God Elijah for God the God who let him
to cherish he forgot the Ravens that fat
him by day and by evening he forgot the
woman that got some under two feet him
and he forgot the barrel of meal that
never wasted and the jar of oil that
never cease he forgot the god of the
Resurrection that raised the boy from
the dead even through him he forgot the
God who answers by fire and the ring
that followed why because like this any
of us can follow it from faith even we
want the greatest faith yesterday we can
go back to sight today Peter asked the
Lord Jesus when she when he saw him
above the storm above the waves on the
lake of Galilee walking Lord is if his
you Lord be me come Jesus Tom Peter come
based on the word of the Lord looking at
Jesus he stepped on the water and the
wind started howling when he went Peter
saw saw the wind was boisterous what has
the wind in boisterous got anything
doing walking water
you mean if there’s no boisterous wind
you can walk you mean on a perfect day
on a swimming pool no repot you can walk
but win has nothing to do with it
but when he saw the wind he lost sight
of the living Lord and he began to sing
walking by sight will cause the greatest
of the disciples to sing and the
greatest of the prophets to fail and we
are all gonna join stones here at either
Peter or Elijah we are just saying where
we missed it
we take our eyes off the invisible into
the visible he got discouraged his
friend in times past was to pray to be
directed by the Lord the Lord directs
him he goes to the brook Cherith the law
says okay enough now go to zealot path
he goes he built the altar all at the
word of the law the leading of God but
now he’s running and whose Direction had
a woman threatening him the treta knee
of a woman he does not see the living
Lord anymore he see an enriched angry
woman
some of you
I got everywhere point this few weeks
I’ve been pointing in the right
direction some of you you are so afraid
because some human face looms larger
than the living Lord you make decisions
based on fear of that person instead of
trust in the Lord it might be a boss it
might be your mother-in-law my
mother-in-law told me the other day
hey mother-in-law’s in our church are
safe you know she told me she thought
I’d be Nolan think she’s trying to say
quit it
oh you’re afraid like a half afraid of
his wife but here he’s not even married
to her and he’s afraid of Jezebel but
who is just about a dying woman her days
are numbered a prophet of finish she’s
on the wrong side and he’s running for
his life so they can happen to any of us
the moment we take our eyes off the
leading law
