The Question That Questions God 0:00 This morning, my thought is centered around verse number 19 of the 70 eighth Psalm, Psalm chapter 78. And if I have preached from any 10:12 verse more than any verse in the Bible, it would be this verse. Every time I come back to this verse, God will give me a little different something out of it. Last night I preached in North Alabama and I0:24 was driving up the road and I got to about, I guess, Franklin. I was talking to Eric and we talked about the whole way. And I said, dear, I said, I gotta go. I said, I got something kinda percolating in my heart. I need0:35 to need to get it on get it on my notes before it gets out. So I prayed for about 45 minutes and thought through this. My thought this morning is can God.0:47 Just a simple question. But I want you to notice the nineteenth verse of the 70 eighth chapter of the book of Psalms. Watch what the psalmist says. Yay.1:00 They spake against God. They said, can God furnish a table in the wilderness?1:13 There's several there's several grammatical things that you need to catch about verse number 19. Watch what it says. It says, they spake against god.1:26 Then it says, they said, can god furnish a table in the wilderness? But notice how that verse ends. It ends with a what? Question. But yet it1:37 says, they spoke it. They said it, but yet it's a question. What that tells me is there are times when you1:49 can ask god a question, and then there are times when you question God. There's 2 different sides of that coin, and if you're not careful,2:01 God always says it's okay to ask him questions. What does he say? Ask of me. He says in the book of Malachi, put me to the test.2:13 But yet he says here, they spoke against me when they asked and said, can God furnish a table in the wilderness? Psalm 78 is a psalm2:25 written by the psalmist. His name is Asaph. Asaph would have been the music director selected by King David to oversee the music2:36 and all of the instruments in the tabernacle worship. Asaph would have been alive whenever brother Solomon would have written down or began to enact the things written down by David to2:48 build the temple of God. And here in Psalm chapter 78, if you look at the beginning of that chapter, it says something in your bible like this, a mashiel of Asaph.3:00 What that means, it means a lesson, an instruction, a a a a look back, something that I want you to learn. And here is what Asaph has done. What Asaph is3:12 doing in chapter number 78 is he is looking at the people that have gathered around the tabernacle worshiping, and he's going to sing to them a song, and the3:23 song is with the intent of teaching them their history. Now you and I do that with our children in school. There there are songs that we teach them their ABCs with, and there are3:35 songs that we teach them the state capitals with, and the states and all those things. Those are songs that are there to enact a lesson. And so when brother Asaph is writing, he's given this history lesson3:47 to let the people of God know how their ancestors messed up and how they messed up. You don't need to mess up like they messed up.4:00 You can learn 1 of 2 ways. You can learn by experience, which hurts, or you can learn by watching and listening to what other people4:11 have been through. If you're a wise person, you'll watch and listen what other people say and do, and you'll enact that into your life. And that is what brother Asaph says, and4:23 he comes here to verse number 18, verse number 19, and verse number 20. And when he gets into those verses, he is taking the people of God back to a time when right before they come to the base of4:35 Mount Sinai, before they come to the the rebellion at Kadesh Barnea, before they are going to listen to the gainsaying of Korah, before they are going to miss it4:47 by not believing that God is able, and before they ever question Moses as the leader, and before they ever question that God would destroy the giants, they had another4:59 lapse in their faith. And this is what they said, it tells us that as the bread of heaven, the manna from God would fall out of the sky, It would land and the bible5:11 said they literally ate angels food. And then they looked up to God and they began to speak against him and this is what they said. They looked at Moses as they asked Moses,5:23 Moses, do you really think God can bring us over the Jordan River? Do you really think God can deliver us to in the out of the hands of the people of Canaan? Do you really think5:35 that? And they looked around, they said, look at all these people. Moses, if you think God can do all that, can God even furnish a table in the wilderness?5:47 And God said, that's where their lapse of faith started. Brothers and sisters, I am reminded as I look at that phrase, can5:59 God? You and I may be living in a different day. You and I may be living in a different culture, but God is still the same. God still puts his people6:11 to the test. He's still in our lives. He puts every 1 of us to the test with heartache, and heartbreak, and mountains, and valleys, and rivers, and6:23 pains, and problems. And he puts those things there, not to mess us up, not to break our hearts, but to show us there is a God in heaven, and with6:35 him, all things are possible. But yet so many times, we come up against these adversaries and these issues and these problems and these pains and these insurmountable6:47 situations, and we look, and instead of saying, Lord, I don't know how, I don't know when, I don't know who, and I don't know what, we get hard hearted, we get our spirits all up in arms,6:59 and we say, God, there's no way you can move this mountain. There's no way you can make this happen. And like the children of Israel, we look at God. And in our souls, we say, can7:10 God really furnish a table in the wilderness? I wrote 5 things down last night as I was driving down the road because there are many of you right now that are facing insurmountable7:23 problems, and you feel your faith beginning to flicker with the winds of adversity. You're feeling the fuel of the soul that God has put within you began to wane as the cold7:34 winds of opposition are blowing, and you're doing everything in your power to maintain faith, and you're doing everything in your power to keep your eyes on Jesus Christ, but you feel the winter winds7:46 of the adversary's breath blowing hard on your soul. My prayer this morning is that by the help of the holy ghost of God that the hot wind of heaven would begin to blow upon the7:58 flame of your faith, and once again it would begin to billow, and it would begin to rage, and it would become a raging inferno that would not just light up your life, would become the bonfire8:10 for people around you that are weak and that are weary. God never puts us through the test for ourselves alone, but for other people to gather around our lives like those little children that would cross8:22 over the joy I'm feeling preaching my soul right about now. As they crossed over the Jordan River, and God said put up these stones because 1 day your little sons and your little daughters are gonna wanna go back to8:33 Egypt land, and they're gonna come to the banks of the Jordan River ready to go back over. And they're gonna look at those stones that have been set up, and they're gonna say, what mean these stones? And you're8:45 gonna be able to look at them and say, children, we faced heartache before, we faced heartbreak before, we faced sorrow before, we faced impossibilities before, and the God that was with us back8:57 there, he's a God that's with us today. The valley you're in right now, it is not to break you, but it is to make you and to give you a testimony. Let's walk through 5 things I want you to writeAsking the Wrong Question 9:09 down this morning on can God. Number 1, write this down. They questioned God with the wrong question. They questioned9:21 God with the wrong question. Watch what they said. You ready? Can God that word can, it's a Hebrew word9:33 which means to have the ability, to have the strength, to have the power. Here is what they look and they say. They say, can God, does he have the9:45 ability? Does he have the power? Does he have the authority? Does he have the know how? Does he have the means? Does he have the resources? Can God actually muster up the strength to provide9:57 and to furnish a table in the wilderness? And the first thing that does to our faith, and it did to their faith, will say, wait a second. What kind of God has got such sensitive feelings that you10:09 can't even ask him a question? Is God really that sensitive that you can't even ask him a question? God says, no. No. No. You can ask me all the questions you want. Just don't question10:21 me. There's a big difference between asking God a question and questioning God. You see, they looked at him and they said, God, are you really able to do that? You know this is bigger than10:32 anything you've ever done before. You know it's bigger than anything we've ever walked through before. You say, but can I ask God a question? I deal with this more times than not. People will look at me and they'll say,10:43 but brother Tyler, it's wrong for me to ask God why. Where do you see that in the Bible? If I'm not mistaken, on top of bloody Calvary, long about 210:54 59 in the afternoon as the sun went black, the darling sun of the God of heaven looked up and he said, why hast thou forsaken me?11:06 Last time I checked, he was right with God. But, Lord, how long is it gonna take? You shouldn't ask God about that. Show me that in the Bible.11:18 Revelation chapter 6 and verse number 10, we are on into the tribulation and the saints are being martyred 1 after another in the tribulation period. And the Bible says, the blood of those righteous11:29 martyrs began to cry from the ground. How long, oh, Lord? Oh, but brother Tyler. Brother Tyler, you you you you can't11:41 question God. You you can't ask God, what's it gonna take to make that happen? Really? If I'm not mistaken, the virgin mother of our11:53 Lord says in little Nazareth 1 day when the angel of God comes to her and says inside of your womb is the very seed of heaven. Inside of your womb is gonna be God in the flesh. And12:05 God is asked a question by the Virgin Mary, how shall these things be? See, and I don't know a man. And God didn't get offended.12:17 Child of God, it doesn't bother God when you say, Lord, how in the world is this gonna happen? It doesn't bother God when you say, Lord, how long is this gonna take? It doesn't bother God when you say, Lord, which way12:28 should I go? The devil's the only 1 that gets offended when you ask questions like that. Do you know why? Because he doesn't know the end from the beginning. He doesn't know the end from the out. But God doesn't bother 112:39 second when you look at him and say, Lord, I'm not questioning your ability. I'm not questioning your goodness. I'm not questioning your grace, but Lord, my faith is beginning to wane in the midnight hour of12:51 this oppression, and it's gotten so dark around me. And so Lord, you said ask and it shall be given. You told me it was okay, so Lord, I just wanna know how long is this gonna take. Oh Lord, why am13:03 I having to walk through this valley? But whatever you do, in the darkness you're in, and the sorrow you're in, and the brokenness you're in, and the mess up you're in, and whatever you're dealing with, do not let13:14 your faith get so low that you start saying, God, there's no way possible. When you began to question God's ability, the13:26 devil's got you in his death trap. Don't bother God in the midnight when you wake up with tears in your eyes and say, Lord, why? Why'd you13:38 take my spouse? Why has it taken so long to have the promise? God, why do they still not come to church? God,13:50 why have you not given me that that ex exaltation you said if I humbled my why? But it's when we buck our chest up at God and say, Lord,14:02 there's no way possible. It's okay to ask God a question. Just make sure you're asking God the right question. Can God Number 2,14:14 write this down. You say, what was the other mess up they did? Well, the second thing is they did this. They questioned him with doubt and not distress. They questioned God14:26 with doubt and not distress. Where do you see that at? Well, you can't see it on the surface. You've gotta get the shovel and you've gotta begin to dig just a little bit beneath the14:37 surface. Circle that word can, c a n. Draw your line out to the side of that word can, and I want you to write this down. Write down imperfect tense.14:51 In the Hebrew, there are these tenses. There are these moods. There there's these layers to words. We don't really have this like it is in the Hebrew and the Greek, but there there are these 2 kindsDoubt vs. Distress 15:03 of tenses that you and I would understand. There's the perfect tense and then there's the imperfect tense. Watch this. When something's in the perfect tense, it means it happened15:15 once and for all. When Jesus is on the cross at Calvary, the bible says he declares, it is finished. In the perfect15:27 tense in the Greek, he's saying, once and for all is done. There in chapter number 78 verse number 19 when he says, canga, it's in the imperfect. You know what that means? It15:39 means it's ongoing. You ready? Here's what they're saying. They look at god and say, god, can you really keep on furnishing15:51 every single day a table? Lord, I know you did it once, but can you do it again? I know you moved 1 time, but, god, that had to be a16:03 fluke. God, I know you answered 1 of my prayers, but, god, that had to be a fluke. What happens, we get into these sorrows, and we get into these heartbreaks, and we get into these mountain moments, and we get into16:15 these valley issues. And the devil, he looks in our hearts at where God answered a prayer back there. And the Holy Ghost is saying, look at how God did answer because the God that did answer, he will16:28 he will answer again. But the devil looks at you and says, you know that was just a 1 off second week in a row. You know God's a 1 hit wonder.16:42 What's that boy's name I was talking about? Never gonna give you up? Never gonna let you down? Here's what he says. The devil looks at us and he says, you getting rickrolled. Is that what that is?16:54 Rickrolled. You are 1 hit wonder with god. Sure. Anybody can get 1 prayer answered. That's easy. But you're asking for a bigger prayer to be answered this17:06 time. And God says what I want you to do. He said, I'm gonna answer that question. He said, I'm gonna ask you to go to bed tonight and then you're gonna wake up in the morning and there's gonna be17:18 manna laying on the ground. He said, I want you to gather as much manna as you want to up to a certain amount for every person in your house. If you don't gather enough, just so you don't say it's a fluke, there's gonna17:27 be worms that come out of it, and it's gonna rot in the afternoon sun. And then you're gonna go to bed tonight, and you're gonna wake up the next morning. And guess what's gonna be laying on the ground again? A fresh17:37 batch of bread has been baked in the ovens of heaven. And if you don't get enough then, worms are gonna come out, and it's gonna rot again. And then you're gonna go to bed, and you're gonna wake up the next day, and she17:47 gonna happen again, because I'm gonna show you I'm not just the God that can 1 time. I'm the God that does it all the time, I'm not just the God that has a 1 hit wonder, I'm the God that puts a top 10 on there every17:58 time, say amen right there. You say what had God done in my life, look back at your life at where God has answered, moved, look at the little things God has moved in, and don't let the devil make you18:10 start asking questions in doubt and in and in sorrow and in a lack of faith. In your brokenness, it's okay to come to God and say, Lord God, I'm having a hard time believing, but with everything in my power,18:22 I'm looking back in my yesterday, and I know that you are the God that did, and I know you're the God that can, even though I can't see it. You see, faith is the substance of things hoped for, it's the evidence of things18:34 not seen. It's seeing what is not as if it is. It's holding what is not as if it already is. It's looking back and saying the God that gave it back there, and the God that moved it right18:45 there, and the God that held it up right there, and the God that broke it down right there is the same God that can do it right here. And the God that can do it right here, He's not a 1 hit wonder. He doesn't just answer18:57 1 prayer, but He keeps on answering prayers. He didn't answer that prayer like I thought he wanted me to or had no time he thought he did, but he did it in his time. And just like that, he'll do it now. Don't let doubt19:10 make you question God. It's okay to question God in distress, God. I don't understand. But don't let doubt roll over19:22 your mind. Are you ready? Write it down. Here you go. It's not up on the screen. It's in my heart. The presence of doubt in your19:34 life is an indication that the seesaw is going the wrong direction. When you began to doubt and when I began to doubt, it's an19:45 indication that the weight of unbelief is outweighing the weight of God's word. Brother Tyler, what do I do when I begin to doubt? What do I19:57 do when I began to worry and I began to wonder? You've gotta look back and recall to your mind that the God that was faithful still is. You've gotta recall where God did move and where God is gonna move today. You've20:08 gotta look back at what God has done. Then you look, you say, God's never answered a prayer of mine. Are you saved? Are you saved?20:20 If you're saved, don't negate how big a miracle you're sitting on right now. You say, but I wasn't that bad a sinner. Son,20:32 you were a well done piece of bacon frying in hell already. You know what God did? God took a well done frying piece of bacon already in hell, took him out, and20:44 gave him a new nature. If I looked at you right now and said me and Troy are going up to the Shoney's buffet after the 11 o'clock service, and we walked into the Shoney's buffet. And on that Shoney's buffet,20:56 we looked and we saw a piece of bacon. And by the time we got around to the other side of that buffet and made our way back around, Troy yelled and said, brother Tyler, come here. This bacon21:08 is a pig, and she's moving. And it's got a tail, and it's oinking. You know what you'd look and21:20 say? You crazy. And then when you went back to that buffet table, and you saw that where used to be a fried up piece of bacon it's a pretty good illustration now the more I think about it. There's a fried up piece of21:31 bacon, and you look and see a little hog moving her little fanny tail in there. You know what you'd say? What a miracle. It was dead, but now21:43 it's alive. You know what I was? I was half a heartbeat from hell, broken on my way to the bottomless pit of God's eternal damnation. I was dead. I was lost and undone without God or21:55 his son. But the savior reached way down for me, and he took that which was dead and gave him life. That which was on its way to hell and already frying, he gave him a home in heaven, and he did not giveOrder from Chaos 22:07 me a home tomorrow in heaven. But according to Colossians, I'm already seated together in heavenly places. And so when I wonder, can God? I look back and see that God's already22:19 worked the biggest miracle that ever could be needed in my life. Don't let doubt make you question God. Number 3, write this down. Write this down. Number22:30 3, they questioned order from chaos. They questioned order from chaos. Write this down. Watch what it says. Can22:42 God, watch the next phrase, furnish? Circle the word furnish. I'll get them to put it up on the screen. The word furnish, it literally means to take individual22:55 elements and put them in a military precision order. Think about it like this. They're out in the wilderness, and this is what23:06 they're saying. God, how can you take all this stuff that doesn't look connected and put an orderly table? God,23:19 we don't even have a table, let alone silverware and salt and pepper shakers and plates. God, there's no way23:31 you can furnish a table when there's a whole bunch of stuff that doesn't go together. There's no way you can bring order out of chaos. You say, I don't do23:43 that to god. Oh, yes. You do. We all do it. God, how can we take that heartbreak and that situation that seems so out of place, and23:54 how's that gonna help me? God, how can you take that decision that just look like the biggest mess up ever and you're gonna take that, then you're gonna take that, you're gonna take that, you're gonna take all24:06 these separate things, and you're gonna God, you can't do it. You can't bring order out of chaos.24:19 The Bible tells us the very first thing God did in creation is he took that which had no structure. In the beginning, God created the24:31 heavens and the earth, and the earth was without form and void. It did not have purpose. It did not have structure. It did not have its direction.24:43 And what does the Bible say? Whenever there was void, and whenever there was and whenever there was no order, what happened? The Bible says, and the spirit of God began to move across the24:54 waters of the deep. Here's what God does, and I'm feeling pretty juicy right now. Here's what God does. He takes things that don't seem like they matter, and heartbreaks that seem out of place, and decisions that are25:06 taking a long time, and answers the prayer that aren't coming, and he takes all that stuff, and he sets another place at the table, and he sets another piece at the table, and we get to the very end of our life. And when25:16 we get to the very parts of our life, you're we're able to look back the older we get, and we say, Lord, in the moment, that didn't make sense. In the moment, I didn't understand why you were doing that. In the moment, I25:28 don't know why you brought that to be. In the moment, I didn't see how that person walking out would help me. In the moment, I didn't see how that jaw moving aside would touch me. In the moment, I didn't know why I was25:39 going through that. But, oh god, I look back now and I realize you were just setting another place at the table. You were just furnishing. You were setting things that didn't seem to go in order.25:51 I like to think of myself not as a fine China Christian, but a chinette Christian. How many of you know what a chinette is? Oh, yeah. Let me26:03 tell you something. It don't take much to impress me. All I need is a clean china plate and a clean plastic fork and a knife. That's all I've got to have.26:15 Now, I know some people ain't like it. We we had a couple in our old church. They were some of the most precious people. Donnie and Diana. Y'all y'all see? They'll come up here and visit. Little26:27 Dash, little boy that'll come up here, wears a little 3 piece suit. They invited us over their house 1 time, and they said, why don't you just come over and fellowship? So help me. I thought we were gonna have coffee26:39 and watermelon. I had no idea what I was about to walk into. Let me put it to you like this. They made fresh, made from scratch, hand kneaded bread26:52 and served it on the Williams and Sonoma plate. When your dinner host pulls out27:04 Williams and Sonoma, she own, baby. When we got there, you remember, we went into their living room. And me and27:16 Donnie were talking about something with I don't remember what we were talking about. And all I heard in the kitchen was noise and racket. And I thought, what is all that racket?27:28 I mean, cabinets opening, they would close. I'd hear drawers opening. I'd hear silverware. I I heard I heard all this stuff, and we were out there forever. I mean but I'm gonna be27:40 honest. We're not super fancy people when it comes to food, but they brought us do you remember what they brought us? They brought us cucumber croissants.27:52 Not a croissant. Hey, croissant. What is that? I don't know. These like little they were little baby.28:04 Honest, I thought they were bunny bread that they stuck a a a thing through and just cut them a little circle out, but I think it was a real deal croissant. And so they they had taken that, and then she had taken hand28:14 cut cucumbers. I'm not talking out of the garden. I'm talking with precision. Am I lying? Military precision. And I literally thought, Diana, you keep bringing28:26 me this stuff. I'm gonna starve to death right here on this. I don't I don't enjoy cucumber croissant. I don't want I don't wanna eat that at my house, and I'm getting nervous right now. They're probably watching right28:37 now. Well, I ain't saying nothing ugly. And I thought in my head, God, I'm gonna starve to death out here on this living room back porch, whatever it was. And all that28:49 noise and racket was going on in the dining room. Finally, sister Diana comes out and she says, if you're ready, dinner is served. Man, we29:01 got up. And children, I'm gonna tell you, we walked to that table and that precious woman, and when I I'm not I'm not exaggerating. She29:12 had a spread like I've never seen. And listen, did you know that Williams and Sonoma makes a butter warmer29:26 with its own knife. And we walked out there, and I'm gonna tell you what I realized. What I thought, all this little stuff29:38 that I didn't what am I doing here? What I didn't realize is behind the scenes, somebody was taking a whole bunch of stuff that29:50 I couldn't see and was setting a table like I'd never seen before. You're looking at God right now and you think you're hearing all this racket and all this broken stuff going onGrateful for Today's Manna 30:02 around you, and God just keeps little feed feeding you with these little things. And you're like, God, I just feel like you're just teasing me. I just feel like you're just constantly doing this. But what you don't30:12 realize is behind the scenes, the good God of heaven is taking a bunch of little stuff that doesn't seem like it goes together, and he's setting a table and an answer to prayer like you cannot imagine. Do not30:23 let 1 moment come into your life where you think God can't bring order out of chaos. Number 4, I got to go. I'm out of here. I'm I'm gonna finish this 1. Maybe I'll preach next week on number 5. Number30:35 4, this is 1. You ready? They questioned God's love in the blessings he had sent. They questioned God's love30:47 in the blessing he had sent. Wait a second. Where do you see that? Watch what they ask. Can God furnish, what's the next phrase, a table?30:59 Why does that matter? Think about it. For the last several days, every morning, guess what he had been sending? Manna. Do you know what they were saying? God,31:12 we know you're giving us manna, but we're remembering what it was like back in Egypt when we had a whole table. God, you're giving us a31:24 little bit. We want more. And children, I remind you right now in my life and in yours, the most dangerous thing we can do is to neglect today's blessing31:36 thinking we deserve more. You and I get so messed up when we look and remember what we think we should have,31:48 a table, and god sending bread baked in heaven. We don't want that. We want a table. Why?32:00 Because that's what we had back in Egypt. Do you remember what they said in the book of Numbers? We Moses, why'd you bring us out here to eat this old bread? Don't you remember bay way back yonder? We had all the fish we32:10 could eat. We had garlic. We had cucumbers. We had onions. We had leeks. We had all that stuff, and yet now, oh, we got some manna. Children, they were slaves. They didn't have all the fish they could eat.32:22 They didn't have onions. They didn't have cucumbers. They didn't have leeks. They were slaves. They were at the hand of Pharaoh, and they had to eat Pharaoh's bread, and they had to dip the bitter herbs of Pharaoh. But32:33 yet now, God has given them something sweet, and no, it's not the milk and honey that he promised them, but God's given them something. Ladies and gentlemen, you may not have what God wants you to have. You may not32:45 have every blessing you've ever wanted in your life, but God's given you something, hadn't he? And too many times, we let the jealousy that we have32:57 for others blessings rob us of the reality of what God's given us today. We went to Dollywood Friday.33:09 I love Dollywood. My god, I love you know how I know I'm a redneck 3 ways? I love fried chicken Myrtle Beach in Dollywood. Say amen right there. That's how you know you're a real redneck. You love those 3 places.33:24 Now my sis my sister had never been to Dollywood. I have no idea how she managed that. Now look. As you all can33:35 imagine, I'm not exactly the kind of guy that checks a calendar. I pretty much wake up that day and figure out which way I'm a going.33:48 Had I thought about it, I would have looked and realized Friday was opening day at Dollywood. I text Chris Smith and I said, hey. What are you34:00 doing? And he said, what you doing? I said, I'm going to Dollywood. He said, what fool goes to Dollywood on opening day? I sent back a picture of me doing this right here.34:17 My little nephews were there, little Hurley's 3, and little Hudson is 3 months. I mean, he's a baby. He's a baby34:29 baby. Little Hurley just wanted to run around and listen, there are people everywhere. And I don't know if you know this or not, but on opening day at the Dollywood in Pigeon34:41 Forge, do you know who comes to Dollywood on opening day of Dollywood in Pigeon Forge? None other than the lady herself, sister Dolly Parton. Do you know who also comes out when Dolly34:52 Parton is gonna be at the Dollywood on opening day? Every crazy person in America. Well, I didn't35:05 I hadn't held little Hudson probably in 2 or 3 months since Christmas, and he was just a little 1. So you know what I did? Listen. There's a picture somewhere. You know those little slang things you wrap around you?35:17 I don't know what they're called. They're the koala, kangaroo, like the the the sack thing you stick your kid down in. I wrap that thing around me. Now I want you to35:29 get this in your head. Here I am with a 3 month old strapped on me with something that a woman would wear35:42 at Dollywood, as Dolly Parton comes by, I want you to imagine what35:53 people thought about me. You know, I'm sitting there. I got that little baby, and I'm holding him and36:05 we're doing this. Hurley's running around. Mason's running around. They're playing with the little ones. People are everywhere.36:19 When I tell you that I'm not a patient person, you can't imagine how impatient I am when I'm not patient.36:33 But there was something that just came over me, and I just sat there. And I just looked around, and I held that little boy,36:46 and I watched my little nephew, and I saw my children. There's my wife, my sister, my brother-in-law. And do you know what I thought?36:58 Lord, this manna sure is good. Brother Tyler, did you not preach a revival for it? No. I just sat there37:10 and I thought this manna sure does taste good. Brother Tyler, do you have everything you want in your life? No. No. I'm still37:22 homeless. I still ain't got no farm. But I sat there on that bench with that baby strapped to me like a kangaroo37:34 with a rainbow somewhere on me, I'm imagining. With no farm, heaven only knows what kind of37:46 germs were in that place Friday. And I just looked up in the blue skies,37:58 and I said, lord, thank you. No, lord. I I don't have everything, but I've got enough.38:11 Don't let what you don't have rob you of what you do have. Why, God? How,38:23 God? When, God? Who, God? All of those are okay. It's when you say, can god. Let's bow our heads this38:35 morning.In this video 0:00 The Question That Questions God9:00 Asking the Wrong Question15:00 Doubt vs. Distress22:00 Order from Chaos30:00 Grateful for Today's Manna
