"Welcome, everyone. Just tuning in. Hallelujah. The market is back in the green. It's about time. I think it's fantastic that the price action is up 5% after a very bearish sentiment over the past week. So let's break it down with our market watch and welcome to everyone just tuning in. Make sure to say hello in the live chat and let me know where you're tuning in from. This is pod episode number 1399. I'm your host, JV, and today is September 12th, 2023. Checking out our market watch here, you can see Bitcoin back above $26,000, which is a great sign. We also have Ether at roughly $1,600 along with BNBXRP and all the major alts currently pumping and in the green. The crypto market cap also back on the rise, sitting just above that $1 trillion milestone with roughly $36 billion in volume in the past 24 hours. We have the Bitcoin dominance also on the rise at 49.1% and the Ether dominance at 18.6%. And checking out the top 100 crypto gainers of the past 24 hours, we've got Bitcoin cash lead in the pack up 12% trading above $203, followed by TonCoin up 10% trading at $1.81, followed by VeChain up 10% trading at roughly 1.6 cents. And checking out the top 100 crypto gainers of the past week, I mean a great omen considering yesterday's live stream when we shared this, it was virtually every single altcoin in the top 100 in the red. Today, virtually all of them in the green. We got RLB leading the pack up a whopping 23%, followed by Bitcoin cash up roughly 12%. And checking out the crypto greed and fear index, we're rated a 30 back in fear. Yesterday was a 40, last week a 40, and last month a 54, which is neutral. So there you have it. How many of you took advantage of the recent Bitcoin price dip when we touched back in the 25,000 range? Let me know. And how many of you are pretty excited for the future price action where the king crypto is about to go? Holla at your boy. Now let's break down the latest technical analysis. Check out the charts and what the top analysts are saying regarding and surrounding the most recent price action. Here we go. Bitcoin attempted to flip and hold 26,000 at the September 12th Wall Street open as a swift Bitcoin price rebound. Excited traders. Are you one of those excited traders? Do let me know. As you can see here, the Bitcoin one hour candle chart data from Cointelegraph in trading view shows the largest crypto holding the majority of its 24 hour gains, which at one point totaled five and a half percent. And at this time, 26,000 formed the focus already flagged as an important line in the sand for the Bitcoin bulls to reclaim, quoting popular crypto trader Jelly. There we go. Range lows reclaimed. Want to see another test of 27,000 now? Let's go. Fellow trader Crypto Ed went further, hoping for a trip to 28 as the ultimate outcome on the shorter time frames. But another sweep of the range lows first, as outlined here in this chart. Now eyeing the odds of continued upside, we have another analyst, Keith Allen, co-founder of Material Indicators, warning that significant resistance lay overhead in the form of various moving averages. He also successfully forecast the latest upside, and Allen continued to underscore the significance of 24,750 holding as support, quoting him here. There is a ton of technical resistance overhead, starting with the 21 day moving average, a death cross between the 50 day and 200 day moving averages, and ultimately the 100 day moving average, which has confluence with the range high. He also says that 24,750 remains the critical level to hold to keep this rally alive. Let's go. Focus on how PA interacts with those levels, if and when they are approached. He also added that the longer term picture remained the same, quoting him again. Don't expect a straight rip to the top of the range. Clearing any of these resistance levels takes some strength from bulls, and the herd has to regroup and graze a bit before they can go after the next level. Makes a lot of good points here. And casting a cursory look at the rest of quarter three, trading platform QCP Capital warned that Bitcoin and crypto faced plenty of potential selling pressure, in addition to macroeconomic triggers such as the US Fed, upcoming decision on interest rates, industry specific hurdles still lay ahead, and the latest market update released September 12th. QCP referenced a concentration of upcoming bearish events that only turned neutral from mid October and onwards, quitting them here. This includes a likely higher than expected CPI tomorrow and a more hawkish than expected FOMC next week, plus the FTX token asset sales. And Mt. Gox over the next month capped things off, hence why law theory implies a bottom early next month. We think the true bottom will come in late mid October when the news cycle has run its course. And they also added that it's expected a conversely bullish end to the year and a start of 2024. But what are your thoughts, fam? Let me know in the comments right down below. I personally feel the bottom is in. I think we hit that bottom fourth quarter of last year when we touched 15,700, but please do let me know your honest thoughts and I'll read those thoughts out loud at the end of the show. Now let's discuss breaking news. A new Spot Bitcoin ETF application has been submitted by a $1.5 trillion asset manager named Franklin Templeton as the dominoes continue falling when it comes to ETF spot apps. That's right. Asset manager Franklin Templeton applied to the United States SEC today, September 12th to launch a Spot Bitcoin ETF. The S1 registration statement comes after the SEC delayed decisions on Spot ETF apps from Wisdom Tree, Valkyrie, Fidelity, VanEck, Bitwise and Invesco on August 31st and a court ruling on August 29th that the SEC must consider the Grayscale application to convert its Bitcoin Grayscale trust product, which is into a Spot ETF. And according to the app, the fund would be structured as a trust. Coinbase would custody the BTC and the Bank of New York Mellon would be the cash custodian as well as the administrator. The fund shares would trade on the CBOE, BZX exchange and the SEC's next deadline for deciding on the application is October 16th, which is right around the corner as pointed out here by Bitcoin for Freedom. Bitcoin Spot ETF apps, BlackRock $10 trillion in assets under management, Fidelity $4.5 trillion, Franklin Templeton $1.5 trillion, Invesco Galaxy $1.5 trillion, Wisdom Tree $87 billion, VanEck $61 billion, and the list goes on and on, GlobalX $40 billion, ARK Invest as you can see here $14 billion, Bitwise $1 billion, Valkyrie $1 billion. That's a grand total of $17.7 trillion from the major asset managers that currently have applications for a Spot Bitcoin ETF in the United States and a little pun, probably nothing. Now Franklin Templeton noted the risk from regulatory uncertainty and its application quoting them here, digital asset markets in the US exist in a state of regulatory uncertainty and adverse legislative or regulatory developments could significantly harm the value of Bitcoin or the shares such as by banning, restricting, or imposing onerous conditions or prohibitions on the use of Bitcoins, mining activity, digital wallets, and the provision of services related to trading and custody in Bitcoin. The operation of the Bitcoin network or the digital asset markets generally. Now Franklin Templeton has $1.5 trillion in assets under management and at this time we know the Bitcoin price just surged 5% which is a good look. Now I actually want to also point out a recent quote from Max Keiser considering yesterday was the 22 year anniversary of 9-11 quoting Max, Bitcoin is the currency of resistance if Satoshi had realized Bitcoin 10 years earlier, 9-11 would have never happened. Let me know if you agree or disagree with this bold claim by the one and only high priest the Bitcoin Max Keiser and welcome to everyone just joining us let me know where you're tuning in from and what you're most excited about in the Bitcoin market this week. Now that we've discussed the one and a half trillion dollar asset manager submitting a Bitcoin spot ETF application now let's break down our next story of the day which is PayPal along with the metamask wallet this just came in here this morning global payment giant PayPal continues expanding its digital asset services integrating new methods to sell crypto currencies like Bitcoin on September 11th yesterday PayPal introduced new on and off ramps for web3 payments allowing users in the US to convert their crypto to US dollars directly from their wallets into their PayPal balances and according to the announcement the PayPal off ramp feature is immediately available to wallets decentralized apps and non fungible token marketplaces and is now officially live on metamask how many of you are familiar with the metamask wallet and have used it in the past let me know the new features are designed to enable customers to buy and sell several cryptos in the United States quoting them here once integrated web3 merchants can help grow their user base by connecting to PayPal's fast and seamless payments experience trusted by millions while leveraging PayPal's robust security controls and two tools for fraud management chargebacks as well as disputes the video on YouTube promoting PayPal's on and off ramp features includes a screenshot of its interfaces showing a user sending about $50 worth of Bitcoin to an external wallet with a $5 network fee and a $2 transaction fee the video doesn't specify what wallet was used for the transaction and it's also worth noting that metamask doesn't support Bitcoin transactions on the original Bitcoin blockchain that's a big factor PayPal did not immediately respond to a request for comment but their latest rollout comes shortly after PayPal partnered with major hardware wallet firm ledger to provide a new on ramp integration into August 2023 allowing verified PayPal users in the United States to buy Bitcoin Ethereum Bitcoin cash and litecoin directly on the ledger hardware wallet via its native ledger live software and as previously reported metamask started rolling out ether purchases via PayPal for users in the US earlier this year back in May metamask parent company consensus and PayPal initially partnered to enable e-transactions in late 2022 so there you have it how many of you have ever used PayPal for any crypto related transactions me personally I don't trust them I don't trust metamask or anything that they're doing if I was to buy Bitcoin and I was forced to use the PayPal you know what I mean services I would immediately self custody that crypto before something can turn south because I don't know do you trust PayPal they've been around for a long time the one silver lining in this story PayPal is gonna help usher in mass adoption because there's something like 500 million freakin users who use paid about PayPal on a regular basis meaning active users that's a population larger than the United States so I can see how this can help usher in that mass adoption but at the end of the day PayPal is just one of many ways to acquire and trade cryptocurrency so it is what it is let me know your honest thoughts fan and now let's break down our next story of the day and discuss a potential Santa Claus rally incoming shall we let's go let's make it a Merry Christmas shouldn't we a prominent crypto venture capitalist bees believes the digital asset market will likely rally around Christmas time after a tough start to September we have Chris burns dick the founder of placeholder capital telling his almost 300,000 followers on X and his recent prediction of a possible upside surprise breakout in crypto is no longer valid in the near term he is now predicting a Santa Claus rally which is a financial term used to describe a calendar effect on traditional equities that historically have gone up on the last five market trading days of the year in December and the first two trading days of the new year quoting the analysts here upside surprise got faded looks likely that we get September puke Santa Claus rally first rate cut in the first half of 2024 leading into elections and though risk assets will catch relief from the changing of rate and liquidity tides crypto would benefit majorly from some big election wins and according to the crypto investor the digital assets market will experience price volatility but eventually enter into the bullish cycle which we all know is inevitable I mean Bitcoin exists on these four-year cyclical cycles right quitting him again patience though the markets are capricious and many variables outside of crypto's control building and development of blockchains is up and to the right burnsick also says that the crypto bull cycle will require an increase in global market liquidity after it has contracted which was likely the cause of the correction in the digital asset space quitting him again smaller narratives always pop up to explain markets but don't lose sight of the larger core drivers now the placeholder executive also said that previously that private investors will likely start investing in the space more once the crypto market starts to flash signs of strength again so the million-dollar question when do you feel this market is likely to flash those signs of strength once again I'll let you boy now let's break down the next story of the day I got back to back $100,000 plus Bitcoin price predictions first one is more specifically focused around the Bitcoin halving which we know is scheduled to be sometime in April of 2024 then the latest from the eToro CEO predicting the Bitcoin price to shatter that six-figure prediction and then we'll wrap up into our live Q &A and again welcome to everyone just joining us make sure to say hello in that live chat don't be a stranger fam executives from prominent mining and manufacturing firms believe that market forces resulting from the fourth Bitcoin halving scheduled in 2024 can force the Bitcoin price pass $100,000 we'll send it unless we can go magazine editor Andrew Fenton spoke to Canon's vice president following a panel discussion at Canon's Avalon Bitcoin and crypto day in Singapore shut out to Singapore he said on the panel which included Bitcoin mining ecosystem executives from Singapore, Kazakhstan as well as the United Arab Emirates all offering Bitcoin price predictions of around $100,000 next year in 2024 resulting from the effects of the latest Bitcoin mining reward halving now how many of you agree with that analyst and these other analysts that the Bitcoin price is likely to shatter the current all-time high of 69,000 next year considering we're only a few months away from 2024 fam can you feel the excitement in the air let me know your honest thoughts and again I'll read those out loud in a little bit he told Cointelegraph that the supply of Bitcoin would be drastically reduced with having reward down to six and a quarter Bitcoin per block while traditional financial institutions are showing increased interest and investing in the sector quitting him here what about BlackRock they are holding on to ten trillion dollars of assets under management the overall crypto market cap is two trillion no actually the overall crypto market cap is only one trillion fam just FYI so they have more than five times on that in fact they have ten times the current crypto market cap the Bitcoin market cap right now is only a half a trillion with Bitcoin sitting just above 500 billion or in that range now the Canon VP said his prediction was heavily influenced by the outcome of a number a Bitcoin exchange traded fun apps which we know as ETFs lodged with the US SEC by some of the world's largest asset managers this money will come in the Bitcoin demand will increase while the supply has decreased and the price will increase that's right it's all based on stock to flow supply demand so when there is a limited scarcity you know I mean there's a limited supply there's a finite limited supply of Bitcoin and we have a strong demand with an incoming supply shock what's you already know that's all it is don't over complicate this Bitcoin is perfect money with a finite limited supply there is massive the man which is going to continue to grow making Bitcoin the most scarce asset we have ever seen in this first time in the history of money we have a currency with a finite limited supply which is uncorruptible on confiscatable borderless and the list goes on and on and on just saying so he also noted that it had become difficult for most miners to continue operating in highly competitive market conditions with all-time hash rates and network difficulties directly eating into the miners profitability now those who cannot cover electricity costs with the Bitcoin mining rewards earn with simply shut off of those machines while those who continue operating will do so with a view a potential upside ahead for the 2024 having survival the fittest only to strong survive I like to say miners who can upgrade to more efficient and powerful machines are able to maintain better profitability common sense right he also predicts that mining companies in the u.s. might be particularly hard-pressed given high electricity administrative costs that's right some places in the United States it's extremely pricey to be mining any BTC he also conceded that Canon was among the industry companies who have reported a financial loss in the first quarter of this year in 2023 highlighting the impact of a prolonged crypto bear market so there you have it fam I mean what are your honest thoughts do you feel we're likely to break out and smash that six-figure price target by the year 2024 also got to throw out there don't forget here in Puerto Rico where I reside I've been talking about this for years once the Bitcoin price hits that six-figure mark we're gonna be having a $100,000 Bitcoin fiesta here in my backyard of Puerto Rico you're all invited I highly encourage you to join our discord server for crypto news alerts and plug into the 100k Fiesta Channel you can find it at discord.cryptonewsalerts.net and let's freakin go and now for the moment you have all been waiting for this is our featured story of the day the eToro CEO was just recently interviewed in a podcast and is ultimately predicting a $100,000 plus Bitcoin price in fact he says Bitcoin is going to shatter this particular target so let's break this down here you go CEO of the investment platform eToro believes the Bitcoin is still on track to blast above $100,000 despite the recent price drop also like to throw out there X is somehow partnered with eToro because now when you go for example you type in Bitcoin you can see the price chart right there on the X platform and I believe you can even start purchasing Bitcoin now using the X platform so there's some sort of JV or partnership between eToro and X just wanted to lay that out for you in a new interview with crypto trader Scott Melker and the wolf of all streets we have Yoni Asia hope I'm pronouncing the name right he says Bitcoin will likely to start gathering bullish momentum towards the end of the year and guess what we're kind of already in the end of the year right according to the eToro exec Bitcoin will likely print a new all-time high by the end of 2024 quitting him here at the end of 2024 is when you'll start seeing rallies and you start gradually seeing something going to $50,000 and then back to $40,000 and then to $70,000 only when it reaches all-time highs which is somewhere probably at the end of next year only when it reaches all-time highs that's when the retail investors come back so he's ultimately predicting new all-time highs at the end of next year now he also is looking at the halving cycles of Bitcoin the eToro CEO says the Bitcoin tends to witness strong surges a year after the halving and the current cycle should not be different and I think he makes a great point because like clockwork the year of the halving we start to get the bullishness but it's the year preceding the halving we hit the all-time high just like we did in 2021 after the 2020 halving and just like we did in 2017 after the 2016 halving and also for the cycles before pretty much like clockwork you know what I mean how many of you experienced prior Bitcoin halving cycles and you've been in the game for at least four years please do let me know I also want to share this statistic every long-term hodler who has been hodling Bitcoin for four years or longer is in the green so the name of the game is the hodl for the long haul because there's four-year cyclical cycles and it's really as simple as that but anyways quitting the eToro CEO here in theory the bull run should actually be in 2025 the same as it was in 2021 2017 and 2013 that's the cycle now there is a very famous saying history does not repeat itself but it sure damn rhymes so I would be surprised if we don't see a rally in 2025 I'd be surprised if we don't see by the end of 2025 Bitcoin above at least a hundred thousand dollars per coin so there you have it let me know if you agree disagree with the analyst now the Bitcoin halving which slashes the Bitcoin miners rewards in half is slated for April 2024 and if you do the math that's roughly only six months out and to watch this video interview he did with Scott Melker on the Wolf of Wall Street podcast entitled Bitcoin will surpass a hundred thousand dollars in 2025 check the show notes below the video in the description now let's discuss this a little more in detail how likely can the Bitcoin price realistically hit a hundred thousand there's some analysts right now that are still faithful that can happen this year in 2023 which means before these other analysts are predicting in fact Max Kaiser made a prediction on New Year's Eve December 31st 2022 I covered it in yesterday's episode if you missed it go back and check it out and he ultimately made the prediction that the Bitcoin price would hit a hundred thousand dollars this year now lo and behold we're currently only at roughly 26,000 we'd have to go up by a factor of roughly 400 to hit that target but what if what if everyone writes Bitcoin off they're like the fourth quarter of 2023 is going to be the worst just expect it and then the market does the complete opposite everyone thinks they got Bitcoin figured out boom Bitcoin does its own thing because Bitcoin is on its own vector and then we smash it how would that likely impact the Bitcoin having and the price action moving into next year let me know your honest thoughts also I like to throw out there that Plan B creator of the Bitcoin stock the flow model is predicting as well a price target for BTC between one hundred thousand dollars and one million dollars per coin post having now granted that's a very wide gap for a prediction but hey even worst case scenario hundred thousand dollar Bitcoin that's four times the current price action not too shabby I also like to throw out there as Michael Saylor likes to pinpoint Bitcoin has been going up and appreciating by a factor of per year since the inception of Bitcoin roughly 14 years ago I don't think that is personally going to change anytime soon but let me know your honest thoughts fam and don't forget to check out crypto news alerts.net for the full premium experience with video and to participate in the lesson.

"In between the writing of the Old and New Testaments, roughly 400 years went by. What happened during this intertestamental age? In today's study, we'll answer that question and we'll introduce the first part of our new series in the book of Matthew. Alright, as I said just a moment ago, we are beginning a new study in the book of Matthew which is the very first book in the New Testament. Now I asked you a trivia question a few moments ago, let me ask you a slightly different one. Does anyone remember what the very last book in the Old Testament is? Malachi. The last book in the Old Testament is Malachi. Now, when do you think Malachi was written? You don't have to shout it out loud, but think about it. When was Malachi written? Well, we believe Malachi was written about 400 to 450 years before this, before the time of Jesus Christ. Now for those doing the math, this means that for about 400 to about 450 years or so, God was silent. God was silent for about 400 to 450 years, presuming that your Bible only has 66 books in it. That's a different story for a different day. Now, did that mean that God was doing nothing during that time? Did that mean God said, you know, I've been a busy God, I think I'm going to go and take a break for a little while. It didn't mean he went on hiatus or went on vacation or something like that. Well, of course not. Of course not. In fact, if you were to study just the secular history of this area, you'd see it was an incredibly busy time, very eventful. This time, and we're going to call it the intertestamental time because that's what theologians call it. The intertestamental time between the Old Testament and the New Testament ran about 400 to 450 years, and it was chock full of all sorts of political intrigue and battles and rulers and emperors that would rise and empires that would fall. You had the Persians which fell, you had the Greeks which would rise, and then you had the Romans who took care of everything that was left. During the intertestamental time, there were many heroes and many villains. Alexander the Great lived during this time, Judas, Maccabees, Antiochus, Epiphanes, who if this was a silent movie, we would all hiss and boo because he was one of the great villains of this age. From Jerusalem to Rome and all points in between and beyond, the intertestamental age, this block of time, 400 to 450 years or so, was incredibly filled, filled to the brim with significant people and events. And yet, and yet, even as all this stuff happened on the world stage, even as all these people's lives and events unfolded, the God who would decree how they unfolded was uncharacteristically silent, silent. For our 400 years, God had not sent the nations a prophet or a word. Now was that unusual? Yes. God just looked through the major prophets and the minor prophets, and as you can see, he regularly consistently spoke, but now, now, he was silent.

"Welcome to the podcast of first presbyterian church of gulfport, mississippi to learn more about our church our beliefs And our pastor, please visit fpcgulfport.org Throughout the old testament god made a series of incredible promises Promises that defied his people's expectations And in his time he fulfilled every last one of them in today's study of first kings 8 We'll consider the god who always keeps his promises Including those that he's made to you and I You know one of the very lowest or worst times for god's people Occurred back in the book of numbers is in the wilderness god's people were in the wilderness now Why were they in the wilderness? Well, they're in the wilderness because that's where they chose to be You see if you remember the story god had told them I have made you i've created i've set aside for you a promised land It's yours go for it And so they sent in spies to check it out to see what it was like to see if they indeed could take it However, when the spies reported back the majority of the spies said no way They said the land is great. No problems there. The land is great the problem is There are giants there. The problem is we're just a bunch of people in the wilderness They've got cities like jericho with walls that are high. They've got armaments. They've got soldiers who stand one and a half times above us God may have told us to go there, but we can't because we'll die And so they spent their time in the wilderness. And in fact a whole generation died out Of that level of distrust or lack of confidence what god told them to do So they're wandering in the wilderness. That's what made the book of numbers so sad They're in a place No one wants to go doing things that they shouldn't be doing and they do it for a whole Generation and they did it based on fear They did it on the basis of that. We just can't do what god has told us to do We know god is strong. I mean, of course, he's strong. Look what he did to pharaoh. He brought all those plagues 10 of them and yet And yet he won't do that for us. I mean he did it back then but You know that was then this is now They had enough faith to remember moses. They had enough corporate honesty to know what happened In their recent past and yet they didn't have enough faith to think that what god did in the past had any bearing on What he would do in the future god says go into the land. They say no We'll die despite the fact That one generation earlier god had literally swapped the armies of pharaoh under the red sea that god had brought down all these plagues If you're god, you're thinking to yourself, you know, I think i've made a pretty good case for myself Am I willingness to protect you? What are you doing? But the people were were fearful They're anxious God had made them a promise They just doubted his ability to come through on it Is that where you're at matters of faith a whole generation of israelites That's where they were at They had enough faith to believe god was there Do you believe god's there I hope so The problem was not that they didn't believe he was there And their problem was not that they didn't believe he'd done some really cool things a long time ago. The problem was They didn't think they would come through for them in this particular instance. No matter what he had said. They knew he'd promised They just doubted the reliability of that promise and for some of us That's our concern We don't doubt god exists. We know he's there Sometimes we doubt whether he loves us enough to count us in that promise And other times we just doubt whether he's actually going to do the very things that he said that he was going to do Well today's text we're seeing psalm is stopping the presses. He's taking the people by the lapel He's shaking him and saying dear heavens. Do you see what god has done? Not a word failed Of what he said not a word not a syllable has failed what he said he would do And he made some of the most amazing promises You could possibly make to people who are in no position to believe that they'd ever be received He told abram old abram and old sarah that they'd have a not just a kid But a progeny the more numerous than the stars in the sky It was a promise seemed unbelievable to fulfill and he fulfilled it to a t He's done everything that he would say he would do and the reason that was important for them And the reason that's important to us is because he's made you a promise, too He's made you a promise about your future And the question is can he come through will he come through In today's text psalm wanted to encourage his people and god wants to encourage us that the answer is yes Let's look at the first couple verses. Let's start with verse 54. Then. Let's work our way through the balance verse 54 And so it was when solomon had finished praying all this prayer and supplication to the lord That he rose up from before the altar of the lord from kneeling on his knees with his hands spread up To heaven All right. Let's stop there in the verses immediately preceding today's passage The temple was done it had taken a while But the temple is now done and king solomon if you read earlier in chapter eight, he had prayed a lengthy prayer That's okay. He had a lot to say so he praised this lengthy prayer and during this prayer. He'd recounted god's faithfulness Sometimes that's okay, too We pray to god and we thank god and we remind god of what he already knows the things that he's done And by virtue of us reminding him of what he already knows we remind ourselves of what we need to hold on to going forward So he prayed this lengthy prayer and then he rises up and stands but as he stands he swivels And he looks out a bunch of folks whose faith was probably like a sine curve Ups and downs from person to person maybe from day to day maybe from hour to hour Solomon was looking at those who had doubts and anxieties not that different from those that many of us had He's also looking at some folks that he knew to be hard-headed You ever read moses experiences in deuteronomy ministering to god's people just hard-headed people David had had the same experience psalm and already as a young king. He had seen the same thing the people are hard-headed They not only tended to reject a lot of things that the prophets and leaders said But they also tended to reject what god had said, but god had still been faithful That was part of his prayer. Thank you god You've been so faithful we've been such such goofs we've done all the things we shouldn't do we've really messed up But you've never let us down You fulfilled everything to a t meanwhile. We're just staggering around the wilderness Even as they'd come into the promised land It's still their faith was like a sine curve and psalm praises says god. Thank you that you don't operate the way that we do Thank you that your promises are reliable So in verse 54, he wraps up this prayer and now again as he swiveled to talk to the people He wants to both encourage them and to challenge them. Let's see what he says in verses 55 and 56 Verse 55 then he stood and he blessed all the assembly of israel with a loud voice sang Blessed be the lord who has given rest to his people israel according to all that he has promised There's not failed one word of all his good promise which he promised through his servant moses If someone were to make you a promise What's the first thing your brain does? So it makes you a promise. What's the first thing you do? Well, here's the first thing I do You think through and you say well what other promises have you made in the past? Because I think i'm going to adjudicate Your ability and willingness to come through on this particular issue On the basis of whether you came through on other issues If someone makes you a promise you immediately you can't help it you think of the track record You think is this a reliable source? Of information promises and the like we consider a new promise in light of what has been done with the old ones Well in verses 55 and 56 Solomon says look there are still better promises yet ahead if you think that this promised land is cool Just wait till you see what is yet to come there's better promises of a better land. There's a better moses coming down the road There's all sorts of stuff in the future that we have to hold on to By faith and in order to believe those promises of that outcome you need to look back and ask Did god come through and what he already said he would do and in verses 55 and 56 he says yes He says look god said some amazing stuff in the past And he delivered he delivered on things that seemed impossible for him to fulfill and so with a loud voice in verse 55 He basically tells the people he says You are the most fortunate of all people because your god Unlike the gods of the philistines and the canadites and the moabites and the amorites and the hitites and the jebusites and every other Ite he says unlike them your god has an unbroken track record Unlike the pagan prophecies and pagan gods of stone and marble and wood That have failed consistently habitually That have let down the very people who have bent the knee to them unlike those people You have a god who came through on every last thing he told you he would Blessed be you and blessed be the name of the lord And he wanted them to remember some of the things that god had done in fact, that's healthy. That's why we read the book That's why we study the old testament And the new as we understand we remember what god has done and how that applies to us We think about the things he did how amazing they were and if he did those amazing things Maybe yet there'll be a resurrection from the dead. Maybe yet We'll all go to heaven. Maybe yet all the things for the future will be fulfilled if he's done all these things in the past You know, as we said some of the things that god promised Defied expectations and the belief of everyone who heard them at the outset I already mentioned abraham and sarah You take the old couple tell them that they're going to have a child and they've been barren all these years and where time has passed Sarah's reaction. I was just to laugh it seemed utterly implausible God made them a promise that seemed utterly implausible and yet he he came through Psalm looked out and saw the descendants He saw the fulfillment of this one promise Think even further back think of noah god promised to this one guy this one Paragon of virtue and just a sea of apostasy and unrighteousness he says it's going to rain But you're going to make it because you're going to build a boat However, it's not going to be just any boat You're going to build a boat big enough to fit all the creatures within the creative realm within it now dear heavens If there is a promise that just defies expectation and belief that it could ever be fulfilled. This is it Of course noah trusted god and went about building a boat in god's time It was filled with animals and god's time the rain came God made a promise that defied expectation then then he fulfilled it Just after the time of when they entered the promised land they came up to the city that god's people You know, they crossed the jordan they come in. All right, so we're in the promised land. Uh-oh. Uh-oh What's that big city with a big wall just right over there? Oh my stars. We made it across the jordan We're in the promised land, but now surely we're gonna die God says no, I promised you got this you got this I got this i'll take you through this And they're like, well how we don't have any weaponry We barely made it across the jordan. We've been in the wilderness. We don't look at that wall And god says hey and rolls up his sleeves. So this is proverbial sleeve so to speak and says tell you what Just march around the city playing the instruments in the light Do that. Sometimes the wall is going to come down who would believe that? Well, they did And god responded God made a promise and god delivered Back in deuteronomy 12 god had said this he says when you cross over the jordan and dwell in the land Which lord your god's giving you to inherit and he gives you rest from all your enemies all around so that you dwell in safely Then there will be the place with lord God your god chooses to make his name abide in deuteronomy 12 written during the time of moses long time before solomon God says this is going to be a future you're going to have a place and there's going to be a temple and in that temple My name will abide well again Psalms looking out at people who had anxieties about what would god do in the future and he says, please Look what he did in the past Please if you have anxiety about what the future holds if you have trouble believing Aspects of what the future the promised future to the church as a whole or use an individual, please Look at what he did in the past and see how he came through and understand. Nothing's impossible In fact god honestly a hundred percent delights in doing things you don't expect in ways that you wouldn't expect That's just the way he operates So he says here just hear the promises evaluate the promises against promises of old and understand That there is a track record that you can turn to whenever doubts strike whenever these concerns come to mind So in verses 55 and 56, this is what he's saying and he goes even further than that He says not only has god fulfilled all his promises, but not a word of them has failed It's not like he did everything in the abstract that yeah, he delivered, you know largely what he said he was going to do You're at a contractor If a contractor is going to build a house or you know Put up a shed or doing a number of different things and they go out They start to work on the thing and so forth and then when you're done you look and you say well He did largely what he said he was going to do. I mean, I don't love everything It's not all perfect, but it largely honored what he said That's the way most contracts with most individuals and everything work largely they're fulfilled Solomon says the contract the covenant the promises that god has made. It's not just that he fulfilled them largely He fulfilled them to the letter not a word had failed of all the impossible things That god told his people to expect unbroken track record. Let's look at verses 57 through 60 verse 57 And so may the lord our god Be with us as he was with our fathers May the lord god who did all that stuff long time ago to people that generations earlier May he do to us as he is done with them May he not leave us nor forsake us that he may incline our hearts to himself to walk in his ways to keep his commandments And statutes and judgments that he commanded to our fathers and made these words of mine with which i've made supplication before the lord Be near the lord our god day and night that he may maintain the cause of a servant and the cause of his people israel As each day may require god is the god of every day of your life Not just god of this whole thing or god of when you're finally saved and on the other side. He's god now Whatever you're doing today this week He is the god of this day verse 60 that all the peoples of the earth may know that there is a lord That the lord is god and there is no other All right. Let me ask you a different question. I asked one earlier. Let me ask you something different Have you ever had someone that you've loved or trusted? Leave you Have you ever had someone that you've loved or trusted leave you volitionally Have you had someone that you've loved or trusted walk away from you or reject you Neglect you although you needed them There's few heartaches for those who can relate to that There's few heartaches as great as being left by those that we love It can be just heart-rending to have someone's presence in your life there for a season and then in a different season in your Life when you desperately need them They're not there If you've experienced that You may find that even months or years later that the hole hasn't gone away It still hurts With that said notice what solomon said in verses 57 through 60 He said may the lord our god Be with us as with our fathers. May he not leave us or ever forsake us You know the gods of the pagans disappeared at times They went off and did their own thing, which is why elijah mocked bale and the others perhaps your god is sleepy We need to wake him up is what he told on mount karma what he told the prophets of bale The pagans had gods that could go away for a season the greek same deal That gods would be busy up on mount olympus, maybe they'd care for you one day maybe they wouldn't But here solomon tells his people and god tells us That he's with us just as he was with our fathers just as he was with moses Whether you're here your name is bob or stew or frank or fran God's with you. God's with you every bit as much as he was with moses That's an encouraging thought because We don't feel like moses most of the time But his presence is with us his presence is with our church And so solomon says, you know if we understand that and we cleave to him our future is bright It's so bright because the right man is on our side the man king. Jesus The right man is on our side, you know, even if the whole world should turn against you Which given enough time it might Even the whole world should turn against you. God won't even if every other promise is broken If even if every loyal friend breaks ranks with you in the time that they come god won't And when you're hurting in that midnight hour when you feel all alone, he says i'm with you And we got this together I'm with you and we got this. All right, let's look at our last verse verse 61 our last verse So now he's encouraging the people about how to respond to these promises and god's presence and the like verse 61 He tells the people and you can imagine his hands that he says it he says let your heart therefore Be loyal to lord our god Let your heart therefore be loyal to lord our god to walk in his statutes and keep his commandments as it is this day This is a benediction of sorts it's a blessing It's also an exhortation And in this exhortation king solomon tells people what he told them previously He says if we believe all this to be true if we believe there is a god in heaven if we believe that he loves us If we believe he's told us how to live Then the evidence of that belief is not simply what we profess with our mouth the israelis profess things all the time That wasn't their problem It's what they did with it how they acted how they responded Remember, we've talked about the difference between orthodoxy and orthopraxy orthodoxy is the easy part orthodoxy is just accepting propositional theological truth And saying amen. Amen what's harder is going out those doors and acting accordingly So solomon he puts his hands out and says hey Aaa Be careful to be loyal to our god and to keep his statutes his laws and his judgments Let me ask you do you remember you remember what your first car was? I got in trouble. I talked about cars recently What was it pinto? Was that what it was something like that? I got in trouble I called out a car and someone said that was my car. So i'm not gonna do that I'll call out my first car. My first car was a brown mazda b2000 pickup Man alive they were a lot smaller and they're making pickups these days pickups these days or something else You know, I had this little thing going down the road and like so I had this mazda b2000 pickup now I did love the car. It was my first car So of course, I loved it and I waxed it and polished it and shined it and like at first Then I went to college and still had the car and I had other priorities or other things that interested me other pursuits for my time and suddenly it wasn't even just a lack of washing the car Other things like I don't know oil changes just things that you just should do, you know, the common sense stuff I was like nah this This car hasn't let me down before right? I mean, I didn't give it an oil change in the last month So it probably doesn't need this one month. Well kick that forward a while. What happens i'll tell you what happens It ends up with me on i-5 north of eugene oregon on the side of the road having Say flipped a rod. I'm those you know cars better. I don't know what happened bruised a rod broke a rod Whatever there was a rod involved and it stopped working And so the car stopped working and it never drove again. That was it I kissed a goodbye it went on a tow truck and it was and it was gone We tend to prioritize the things that are important to us It's easy to ascend to propositional truth when it's right in front of us the people there at that time With the new temple and the hurrahs and you know the celebrations and the dinner on the grounds They were having back in this day. The people were excited. It wasn't hard to get them excited It wasn't hard for them to get amen and all that the hard part was in nurturing and caring For that which god entrusted to them down the road and for prioritizing the same things through their actions that they prioritize with their lips Right here and the sad thing was that they wouldn't When I say this is the high point of israel's history up to this point i've been it What does that imply? It implies that things got worse Which they did God made a promise I got you I got you in your future And they had made promises to the differences. They didn't keep theirs And so they backslid in the most egregious of ways to the point to the sad point as we studied in our review of ezekiel Last year whenever it was To the sad point that the same god who came to dwell in this temple in first kings chapter 8 would leave it and ezekiel 10 He would depart the temple leave it as ikabat empty of his glory There's things that have been trusted to matters of faith if you're a parent if you're a father There's things that have been entrusted to you to look out after your loved ones to nurture their faith To take care of their faith to take care of your own faith so that it doesn't get broken down on the side of the road When life circumstances throw you a curveball, which is inevitable There's bins in the road. You can't see coming So The way that we grow and sustain our faith is by immersing ourselves in the faith by doing what god has Said all right before we wrap up or in closing here I want you to notice at the very end of verse 61 He says something interesting and at first when I looked at this text a few years ago I missed it, but I don't want to miss it today verse 61 He said let your heart therefore be loyal to the lord our god to walk in the statutes and keep his commandments And then he adds these four words as at this day Solomon knew the people's history He wanted them to have that particular day emblazoned on their mind to do that Which they had promised to do that day in the time yet to come and yet As we said just a moment ago They wouldn't Roughly 400 years later after this text That day would be a distant memory and they would have forgotten it 400 years later there would be no more cheering There would only be what we call lamentation There would only be disaster Roughly 400 years later as we said before god's glory would depart the babylonians would show up. That's a bad trade They gave up the glory of god. They received the babylonians Ezekiel 10 says this the glory lord departed from the threshold of the temple and stood over the cherubim and the cherubim mounted up from the earth in his sight Same temple look Can that happen to a church to a denomination a nation? Yes, yes, and yes It can happen if we don't keep the first things first It can happen if we don't prioritize that which we're called to prioritize It can happen if we stop trusting god and start trusting ourselves It can happen if we ignore what god has said in his word And start coming up with our own precepts and following the wills and wants of our own hearts In this passage that we've read today Solomon god through psalm is reminding the people that hey, there's some intentionality i've made you a promise and yet and yet There is a degree of intentionality on your part That your future is going to be heavily predicated upon. What will it be? What will it be are you going to be zealous to do the very things that you promised me on First kings 8 that you promised you say you're going to do you say amen. Amen. Are you going to do that? You won't if you're not intentional about it and in time In time the temple might be empty and in time churches or denominations can follow suit and if you don't think that's possible Go to europe Go to new england Just see places that once not that long ago that once resonated With at least a cultural religiosity And all likelihood of something far stronger now be turned to just empty husks of what they once were If it could happen in israel if it could happen in europe if it happened to england it could happen in the bible belt Our responsibility Is to cling to that which god has delivered us once for all through the saints And to champion no matter what the world tells us no matter what's going on in the culture around us Let the culture go to the wind This is what we're called to adhere to and salman put it before the people in an old testament context Said do this and live The same is true for us Let's pray Join, dr.

A highlight from The God Who Keeps His Promises
"Welcome to the podcast of first presbyterian church of gulfport, mississippi to learn more about our church our beliefs And our pastor, please visit fpcgulfport .org Throughout the old testament god made a series of incredible promises Promises that defied his people's expectations And in his time he fulfilled every last one of them in today's study of first kings 8 We'll consider the god who always keeps his promises Including those that he's made to you and I You know one of the very lowest or worst times for god's people Occurred back in the book of numbers is in the wilderness god's people were in the wilderness now Why were they in the wilderness? Well, they're in the wilderness because that's where they chose to be You see if you remember the story god had told them I have made you i've created i've set aside for you a promised land It's yours go for it And so they sent in spies to check it out to see what it was like to see if they indeed could take it However, when the spies reported back the majority of the spies said no way They said the land is great. No problems there. The land is great the problem is There are giants there. The problem is we're just a bunch of people in the wilderness They've got cities like jericho with walls that are high. They've got armaments. They've got soldiers who stand one and a half times above us God may have told us to go there, but we can't because we'll die And so they spent their time in the wilderness. And in fact a whole generation died out Of that level of distrust or lack of confidence what god told them to do So they're wandering in the wilderness. That's what made the book of numbers so sad They're in a place No one wants to go doing things that they shouldn't be doing and they do it for a whole Generation and they did it based on fear They did it on the basis of that. We just can't do what god has told us to do We know god is strong. I mean, of course, he's strong. Look what he did to pharaoh. He brought all those plagues 10 of them and yet And yet he won't do that for us. I mean he did it back then but You know that was then this is now They had enough faith to remember moses. They had enough corporate honesty to know what happened In their recent past and yet they didn't have enough faith to think that what god did in the past had any bearing on What he would do in the future god says go into the land. They say no We'll die despite the fact That one generation earlier god had literally swapped the armies of pharaoh under the red sea that god had brought down all these plagues If you're god, you're thinking to yourself, you know, I think i've made a pretty good case for myself Am I willingness to protect you? What are you doing? But the people were were fearful They're anxious God had made them a promise They just doubted his ability to come through on it Is that where you're at matters of faith a whole generation of israelites That's where they were at They had enough faith to believe god was there Do you believe god's there I hope so The problem was not that they didn't believe he was there And their problem was not that they didn't believe he'd done some really cool things a long time ago. The problem was They didn't think they would come through for them in this particular instance. No matter what he had said. They knew he'd promised They just doubted the reliability of that promise and for some of us That's our concern We don't doubt god exists. We know he's there Sometimes we doubt whether he loves us enough to count us in that promise And other times we just doubt whether he's actually going to do the very things that he said that he was going to do Well today's text we're seeing psalm is stopping the presses. He's taking the people by the lapel He's shaking him and saying dear heavens. Do you see what god has done? Not a word failed Of what he said not a word not a syllable has failed what he said he would do And he made some of the most amazing promises You could possibly make to people who are in no position to believe that they'd ever be received He told abram old abram and old sarah that they'd have a not just a kid But a progeny the more numerous than the stars in the sky It was a promise seemed unbelievable to fulfill and he fulfilled it to a t He's done everything that he would say he would do and the reason that was important for them And the reason that's important to us is because he's made you a promise, too He's made you a promise about your future And the question is can he come through will he come through In today's text psalm wanted to encourage his people and god wants to encourage us that the answer is yes Let's look at the first couple verses. Let's start with verse 54. Then. Let's work our way through the balance verse 54 And so it was when solomon had finished praying all this prayer and supplication to the lord That he rose up from before the altar of the lord from kneeling on his knees with his hands spread up To heaven All right. Let's stop there in the verses immediately preceding today's passage The temple was done it had taken a while But the temple is now done and king solomon if you read earlier in chapter eight, he had prayed a lengthy prayer That's okay. He had a lot to say so he praised this lengthy prayer and during this prayer. He'd recounted god's faithfulness Sometimes that's okay, too We pray to god and we thank god and we remind god of what he already knows the things that he's done And by virtue of us reminding him of what he already knows we remind ourselves of what we need to hold on to going forward So he prayed this lengthy prayer and then he rises up and stands but as he stands he swivels And he looks out a bunch of folks whose faith was probably like a sine curve Ups and downs from person to person maybe from day to day maybe from hour to hour Solomon was looking at those who had doubts and anxieties not that different from those that many of us had He's also looking at some folks that he knew to be hard -headed You ever read moses experiences in deuteronomy ministering to god's people just hard -headed people David had had the same experience psalm and already as a young king. He had seen the same thing the people are hard -headed They not only tended to reject a lot of things that the prophets and leaders said But they also tended to reject what god had said, but god had still been faithful That was part of his prayer. Thank you god You've been so faithful we've been such such goofs we've done all the things we shouldn't do we've really messed up But you've never let us down You fulfilled everything to a t meanwhile. We're just staggering around the wilderness Even as they'd come into the promised land It's still their faith was like a sine curve and psalm praises says god. Thank you that you don't operate the way that we do Thank you that your promises are reliable So in verse 54, he wraps up this prayer and now again as he swiveled to talk to the people He wants to both encourage them and to challenge them. Let's see what he says in verses 55 and 56 Verse 55 then he stood and he blessed all the assembly of israel with a loud voice sang Blessed be the lord who has given rest to his people israel according to all that he has promised There's not failed one word of all his good promise which he promised through his servant moses If someone were to make you a promise What's the first thing your brain does? So it makes you a promise. What's the first thing you do? Well, here's the first thing I do You think through and you say well what other promises have you made in the past? Because I think i'm going to adjudicate Your ability and willingness to come through on this particular issue On the basis of whether you came through on other issues If someone makes you a promise you immediately you can't help it you think of the track record You think is this a reliable source? Of information promises and the like we consider a new promise in light of what has been done with the old ones Well in verses 55 and 56 Solomon says look there are still better promises yet ahead if you think that this promised land is cool Just wait till you see what is yet to come there's better promises of a better land. There's a better moses coming down the road There's all sorts of stuff in the future that we have to hold on to By faith and in order to believe those promises of that outcome you need to look back and ask Did god come through and what he already said he would do and in verses 55 and 56 he says yes He says look god said some amazing stuff in the past And he delivered he delivered on things that seemed impossible for him to fulfill and so with a loud voice in verse 55 He basically tells the people he says You are the most fortunate of all people because your god Unlike the gods of the philistines and the canadites and the moabites and the amorites and the hitites and the jebusites and every other Ite he says unlike them your god has an unbroken track record Unlike the pagan prophecies and pagan gods of stone and marble and wood That have failed consistently habitually That have let down the very people who have bent the knee to them unlike those people You have a god who came through on every last thing he told you he would Blessed be you and blessed be the name of the lord And he wanted them to remember some of the things that god had done in fact, that's healthy. That's why we read the book That's why we study the old testament And the new as we understand we remember what god has done and how that applies to us We think about the things he did how amazing they were and if he did those amazing things Maybe yet there'll be a resurrection from the dead. Maybe yet We'll all go to heaven. Maybe yet all the things for the future will be fulfilled if he's done all these things in the past You know, as we said some of the things that god promised Defied expectations and the belief of everyone who heard them at the outset I already mentioned abraham and sarah You take the old couple tell them that they're going to have a child and they've been barren all these years and where time has passed Sarah's reaction. I was just to laugh it seemed utterly implausible God made them a promise that seemed utterly implausible and yet he he came through Psalm looked out and saw the descendants He saw the fulfillment of this one promise Think even further back think of noah god promised to this one guy this one Paragon of virtue and just a sea of apostasy and unrighteousness he says it's going to rain But you're going to make it because you're going to build a boat However, it's not going to be just any boat You're going to build a boat big enough to fit all the creatures within the creative realm within it now dear heavens If there is a promise that just defies expectation and belief that it could ever be fulfilled. This is it Of course noah trusted god and went about building a boat in god's time It was filled with animals and god's time the rain came God made a promise that defied expectation then then he fulfilled it Just after the time of when they entered the promised land they came up to the city that god's people You know, they crossed the jordan they come in. All right, so we're in the promised land. Uh -oh. Uh -oh What's that big city with a big wall just right over there? Oh my stars. We made it across the jordan We're in the promised land, but now surely we're gonna die God says no, I promised you got this you got this I got this i'll take you through this And they're like, well how we don't have any weaponry We barely made it across the jordan. We've been in the wilderness. We don't look at that wall And god says hey and rolls up his sleeves. So this is proverbial sleeve so to speak and says tell you what Just march around the city playing the instruments in the light Do that. Sometimes the wall is going to come down who would believe that? Well, they did And god responded God made a promise and god delivered Back in deuteronomy 12 god had said this he says when you cross over the jordan and dwell in the land Which lord your god's giving you to inherit and he gives you rest from all your enemies all around so that you dwell in safely Then there will be the place with lord God your god chooses to make his name abide in deuteronomy 12 written during the time of moses long time before solomon God says this is going to be a future you're going to have a place and there's going to be a temple and in that temple My name will abide well again Psalms looking out at people who had anxieties about what would god do in the future and he says, please Look what he did in the past Please if you have anxiety about what the future holds if you have trouble believing Aspects of what the future the promised future to the church as a whole or use an individual, please Look at what he did in the past and see how he came through and understand. Nothing's impossible In fact god honestly a hundred percent delights in doing things you don't expect in ways that you wouldn't expect That's just the way he operates So he says here just hear the promises evaluate the promises against promises of old and understand That there is a track record that you can turn to whenever doubts strike whenever these concerns come to mind So in verses 55 and 56, this is what he's saying and he goes even further than that He says not only has god fulfilled all his promises, but not a word of them has failed It's not like he did everything in the abstract that yeah, he delivered, you know largely what he said he was going to do You're at a contractor If a contractor is going to build a house or you know Put up a shed or doing a number of different things and they go out They start to work on the thing and so forth and then when you're done you look and you say well He did largely what he said he was going to do. I mean, I don't love everything It's not all perfect, but it largely honored what he said That's the way most contracts with most individuals and everything work largely they're fulfilled Solomon says the contract the covenant the promises that god has made. It's not just that he fulfilled them largely He fulfilled them to the letter not a word had failed of all the impossible things That god told his people to expect unbroken track record. Let's look at verses 57 through 60 verse 57 And so may the lord our god Be with us as he was with our fathers May the lord god who did all that stuff long time ago to people that generations earlier May he do to us as he is done with them May he not leave us nor forsake us that he may incline our hearts to himself to walk in his ways to keep his commandments And statutes and judgments that he commanded to our fathers and made these words of mine with which i've made supplication before the lord Be near the lord our god day and night that he may maintain the cause of a servant and the cause of his people israel As each day may require god is the god of every day of your life Not just god of this whole thing or god of when you're finally saved and on the other side. He's god now Whatever you're doing today this week He is the god of this day verse 60 that all the peoples of the earth may know that there is a lord That the lord is god and there is no other All right. Let me ask you a different question. I asked one earlier. Let me ask you something different Have you ever had someone that you've loved or trusted? Leave you Have you ever had someone that you've loved or trusted leave you volitionally Have you had someone that you've loved or trusted walk away from you or reject you Neglect you although you needed them There's few heartaches for those who can relate to that There's few heartaches as great as being left by those that we love It can be just heart -rending to have someone's presence in your life there for a season and then in a different season in your Life when you desperately need them They're not there If you've experienced that You may find that even months or years later that the hole hasn't gone away It still hurts With that said notice what solomon said in verses 57 through 60 He said may the lord our god Be with us as with our fathers. May he not leave us or ever forsake us You know the gods of the pagans disappeared at times They went off and did their own thing, which is why elijah mocked bale and the others perhaps your god is sleepy We need to wake him up is what he told on mount karma what he told the prophets of bale The pagans had gods that could go away for a season the greek same deal That gods would be busy up on mount olympus, maybe they'd care for you one day maybe they wouldn't But here solomon tells his people and god tells us That he's with us just as he was with our fathers just as he was with moses Whether you're here your name is bob or stew or frank or fran God's with you. God's with you every bit as much as he was with moses That's an encouraging thought because We don't feel like moses most of the time But his presence is with us his presence is with our church And so solomon says, you know if we understand that and we cleave to him our future is bright It's so bright because the right man is on our side the man king. Jesus The right man is on our side, you know, even if the whole world should turn against you Which given enough time it might Even the whole world should turn against you. God won't even if every other promise is broken If even if every loyal friend breaks ranks with you in the time that they come god won't And when you're hurting in that midnight hour when you feel all alone, he says i'm with you And we got this together I'm with you and we got this. All right, let's look at our last verse verse 61 our last verse So now he's encouraging the people about how to respond to these promises and god's presence and the like verse 61 He tells the people and you can imagine his hands that he says it he says let your heart therefore Be loyal to lord our god Let your heart therefore be loyal to lord our god to walk in his statutes and keep his commandments as it is this day This is a benediction of sorts it's a blessing It's also an exhortation And in this exhortation king solomon tells people what he told them previously He says if we believe all this to be true if we believe there is a god in heaven if we believe that he loves us If we believe he's told us how to live Then the evidence of that belief is not simply what we profess with our mouth the israelis profess things all the time That wasn't their problem It's what they did with it how they acted how they responded Remember, we've talked about the difference between orthodoxy and orthopraxy orthodoxy is the easy part orthodoxy is just accepting propositional theological truth And saying amen. Amen what's harder is going out those doors and acting accordingly So solomon he puts his hands out and says hey Aaa Be careful to be loyal to our god and to keep his statutes his laws and his judgments Let me ask you do you remember you remember what your first car was? I got in trouble. I talked about cars recently What was it pinto? Was that what it was something like that? I got in trouble I called out a car and someone said that was my car. So i'm not gonna do that I'll call out my first car. My first car was a brown mazda b2000 pickup Man alive they were a lot smaller and they're making pickups these days pickups these days or something else You know, I had this little thing going down the road and like so I had this mazda b2000 pickup now I did love the car.

I mean, I didn't give it an oil change in the last month So it probably doesn't need this one month. Well kick that forward a while. What happens i'll tell you what happens It ends up with me on i -5 north of eugene oregon on the side of the road having Say flipped a rod. I'm those you know cars better. I don't know what happened bruised a rod broke a rod Whatever there was a rod involved and it stopped working And so the car stopped working and it never drove again. That was it I kissed a goodbye it went on a tow truck and it was and it was gone We tend to prioritize the things that are important to us It's easy to ascend to propositional truth when it's right in front of us the people there at that time With the new temple and the hurrahs and you know the celebrations and the dinner on the grounds They were having back in this day. The people were excited. It wasn't hard to get them excited It wasn't hard for them to get amen and all that the hard part was in nurturing and caring For that which god entrusted to them down the road and for prioritizing the same things through their actions that they prioritize with their lips Right here and the sad thing was that they wouldn't When I say this is the high point of israel's history up to this point i've been it What does that imply?

It happened at a store in Forestville around Wednesday afternoon. It began at this coffee shop on Donnell Drive. There was an armored car employee inside of the business behind me conducting business on behalf of the armored company. Acting Deputy Chief of Prince George's County Police Zachary O 'Leary says a person was killed by that Brinks employee after they went behind the counter. Detectives could be seen combing through the store and talking to witnesses. Brinks confirms that an employee was involved in the incident here. Starbucks says its employees are safe and that the store will remain closed as it provides care for employees and also says its thoughts remain with the customers, family and loved ones. In Forestville, Mike Murillo, WTOP News. WTOP at 105, I'm new on WTOP Thursday morning. A man is in critical condition locally after a hit and run that happened in Southeast D .C. last night, Wednesday night. Police say it all happened around 630 in the evening Wednesday on Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue in Southeast. Officers found a man who had been struck by a car and was unconscious at the time and not breathing. He was taken to a nearby hospital in critical condition last night. Police are on the lookout this morning for a silver Mercedes they believe was involved in that hit and run. Now that leaders in one of the area's biggest counties have passed a bill to cap the rent hikes, will renters actually get the relief they're looking for? Or will the shortage of housing just get worse? Alex Rosello is with the Apartment and Office Building Association of Metropolitan Washington.

"I'm Holly Fry. This episode is the last episode I am writing for the year 2020. It's been a year parade. Yeah, hurry. Also. I just have had minimal contact with anybody besides my spouse in almost nine months, and then for some reason, my brain keeps being like scurvy. And that's what we're gonna talk about. Today is scurvy because just for some weird reason, my brain keeps coming back around to it in these times of winter and pandemic. So scurvy in case you don't know And you probably do is a deficiency in vitamin C or acerbic acid, and its story goes way way back in history all the way to our evolutionary ancestors living more than 60 million years ago. Most mammals can generate their own acerbic acid, and that included those primate ancestors. But somewhere along the way, a random genetic mutation broke the ability to produce an enzyme known his Elga Luna lacked own oxidize or Gullo, which is a necessary part of making acerbic acid. Was her big ass. It is also necessary. The body uses it to synthesize the protein, collagen and collagen is a crucially important part of our connective tissue. We needed to do really important things like hold our skin and blood vessels together. So if the body cannot replace worn out college in it causes serious problems. The first symptoms of scurvy involved fatigue, lethargy and aching joints. People start to bruise easily. Wounds won't heal and old wounds reopen without treatment with vitamin C. Scurvy is eventually fatal, often because of acute internal bleeding around the brain or heart. But when our ancestors stopped being able to produce glow, this really did not matter. They were living in tropical areas and their diets included lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, so they were getting plenty of vitamin C through their food. If this had not been true, this genetic mutation that shut off the ability to synthesize Gula would have wiped them out. But since their diets were rich with vitamin C, they continued to thrive. As people started living farther from tropical areas, they started eating more foods that did not necessarily contain as much vitamin C. But most of the time this was still not a big problem. Most dietary recommendations call for significantly more vitamin C, but it doesn't actually take that much just to prevent scurvy on Lee about 10, MG a day or all you need Although vitamin C is mostly associated with fruits and vegetables, it is found in other foods as well. Most meat contains a little if it hasn't been cooked too long and liver and kidney meat in particular, contained quite a bit of it. So, as one example the practice of eating raw organ meat in far northern indigenous communities provides protection from scurvy, even when plant based foods are unavailable or out of season. So as communities established themselves around the world, people had to have some kind of vitamin C and their diets. Otherwise that community just could not survive. But any time that access to food was cut off in some way, say because of a war or a famine, people could start to develop scurvy and this was also true for people with diseases and conditions that kept them from eating or kept them from absorbing the nutrients in their food. In the words scurvy comes from older terms that mean lazy scabbed or skirt, which used to be used to describe dandruff. People started using it to describe this disease in about the 16th century. But written descriptions of scurvy that predate that word are much older. The earliest likely description of scurvy is found in the Egyptian document, known as the Evers Papyrus, which dates back to about 1500 B. C. E. Past podcast subject, she shrewd a described a condition involving bleeding gums and loosening teeth around 800 bc roughly 400 years later, Greek physician Hippocrates described what was probably scurvy. And while he did not go into detail about the cure, he knew for it. He did note that it wasn't effective and that patients usually died. So today scurvy is associated with long sea voyages and his humanity took to the sea. People worked out some ways to prevent it, although really, without necessarily knowing. That was what they were doing. Many of the earliest seafarers stuck close to the coasts or the island hopped and that give them plenty of opportunities to stock up on fresh food. But his voyages got longer. Many also had foods on board that were rich in vitamin C. It's possible that Polynesian way finders introduced sweet potatoes to Central and South America, they would have brought them with them over thousands of miles of ocean. And sweet potatoes contain vitamin C. Scandinavians stocked their ships with cloud buries, which have about four times as much vitamin C as oranges. Do. Unpasteurized milk also contains vitamin C, so seafarers who had dairy animals on board could get it that way. While scurvy was common enough to be documented in ancient medical literature. One of the first specifically documented outbreaks happened in the 13th century. During the eighth Crusade, the King Louis the ninth lay siege to Tunis. Although there were plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables available in the area, the king and his fighting force were mostly eating fish, and many were also undertaking religious fasts. The king and about 1/6 of his men died of disease during the siege. For a long time. Their deaths were attributed to plague. But more recent research has found evidence of scurvy in the King's job own. Not long after this scurvy started to become a serious problem on European ships during long civil ages. And most of the literature that's related to scurvy in history today is focused primarily on Europe and its colonies, mostly during the age of exploration, which was from about the 15 through the 17th centuries. But of course Europeans were not the only people taking to the sea. At this point. It's possible that other nations aren't as represented in English language literature because of language barriers or prejudice. It's also possible that scurvy was just not as much of a problem outside of European fleets most of the time. It takes between two months and 12 weeks without vitamin C for a person to develop scurvy. And while sailors from parts of Africa and Asia were taking voyages that lasted much longer than that, overall, often they were not going that long between stops to resupply. It also seems like they may have been doing a better job of providing their crews with foods rich in vitamin C past podcast subject. Even Batuta, who was from what's now Morocco and traveled extensively during the 14th century. Described a green vegetables and ginger being grown in tanks on Chinese vessels. He also wrote about salted ginger pepper, lemons and mangoes being loaded onto ships in preparation for long voyages. Another previous podcast subject is Zhang Huh? Who led fleets of treasure ships from China all the way to Africa in the 15th century. We don't have lists of exactly what provisions he took. But we do know that his fleets included huge supply vessels whose whole purpose was sustaining the voyage itself and that the ships had kitchens that prepared meals for crews and passengers. There are also multiple references to tea and relationships. Voyages and T does contain some vitamin C. For the most part, written records of scurvy on Chinese vessels Don't really start until the 19th century when people left China bound for California during the gold rush. But European ships were another story especially is European ships crossed whole oceans. People's diets were often restricted to salted meat and hard tack and not much else. Typically, any vegetables grown on board were only for the officers. Consequently, it's estimated that scurvy killed two million European sailors between the 15th century and the 19th century, which is when maybe started to more consistently connect scurvy prevention to things like Citrus juice. During these centuries scurvy was the leading cause of death among sailors at sea. There was also a major cause of death among enslaved Africans during the transatlantic slave trade. Although the details of that aspect have not been nearly as specifically documented, as with ships cruise and we're going to talk about some more specific scurvy information after we first pause for little sponsor break You're listening to Sunday night podcasts featuring one of the.

I've just I've had minimal contact with anybody besides my spouse it almost nine months and then for some reason, my brain keeps being like scurvy. And that's what we're gonna talk about. Today is scurvy because just for some weird reason, my brain keeps coming back around to it in these times of winter and pandemic, so scurvy in case you don't know And you probably do is a deficiency in vitamin C or acerbic acid, and its story goes way way back in history. All the way to our evolutionary ancestors living more than 60 million years ago, most mammals can generate their own acerbic acid, and that included those primate ancestors. But somewhere along the way, a random genetic mutation broke the ability to produce an enzyme known his Elga Luna lacked own oxidize or goo low, which is a necessary part of making acerbic acid. Was her big ass. It is also necessary. The body uses it to synthesize the protein, collagen and collagen is a crucially important part of our connective tissue. We needed to do really important things like hold our skin and blood vessels together. So if the body cannot replace worn out college in it causes serious problems. The first symptoms of scurvy involved fatigue, lethargy and aching joints. People start to bruise easily. Wounds won't heal and old wounds reopen without treatment with vitamin C. Scurvy is eventually fatal, often because of acute internal bleeding around the brain or heart. But when our ancestors stopped being able to produce Gullo, this really did not matter. They were living in tropical areas and their diets included lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, so they were getting plenty of vitamin C through their food. If this had not been true, this genetic mutation that shut off the ability to synthesize Gula would have wiped them out. But since their diets were rich with vitamin C, they continued to thrive. As people started living farther from tropical areas, they started eating more foods that did not necessarily contain as much vitamin C. But most of the time this was still not a big problem. Most dietary recommendations call for significantly more vitamin C, but it doesn't actually take that much just to prevent scurvy on Lee about 10, MG a day or all you need And although vitamin C is mostly associated with fruits and vegetables, it has found another foods as well. Most meat contains a little if it hasn't been cooked too long and liver and kidney meat in particular, contained quite a bit of it. So, as one example the practice of eating raw organ meat in far northern indigenous communities provides protection from scurvy, even when plant based foods are unavailable or out of season. So as communities established themselves around the world, people had to have some kind of vitamin C and their diets. Otherwise that community just could not survive. But any time that access to food was cut off in some way, say because of a war or a famine, people could start to develop scurvy and this was also true for people with diseases and conditions that kept them from eating or kept them from absorbing the nutrients in their food. In the words scurvy comes from older terms that mean lazy scabbed or skirt which used to be used to describe dandruff. People started using it to describe this disease in about the 16th century, but written descriptions of scurvy that predate that word are much older. The earliest likely description of scurvy is found in the Egyptian document, known as the Evers Papyrus, which dates back to about 1500 B. C. E. Past podcast subject, she shrewd a described a condition involving bleeding gums and loosening teeth around 800. BC Roughly 400 years later, Greek physician Hippocrates described what was probably scurvy. And while he did not go into detail about the cure, he knew for it. He did note that it wasn't effective and that patients usually died. So today, Scurvy is associated with long sea voyages and has humanity took to the sea. People worked out some ways to prevent it, although really, without necessarily knowing. That was what they were doing. Many of the earliest seafarers stuck close to the coasts or the island hopped, and that gave them plenty of opportunities to stock up on fresh food. His voyages got longer. Many also had foods on board that were rich in vitamin C. It's possible that Polynesian way finders introduced sweet potatoes to Central and South America, they would have brought them with them over thousands of miles of ocean. And sweet potatoes contain vitamin C. Scandinavian stock their ships with cloud buries, which have about four times as much vitamin C as oranges. Do. Unpasteurized milk also contains vitamin C, so seafarers who had dairy animals on board could get it that way. While scurvy was common enough to be documented in ancient medical literature. One of the first specifically documented outbreaks happened in the 13th century. During the eighth Crusade, the King Louis the ninth lay siege to Tunis. Although there were plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables available in the area, the king and his fighting force were mostly eating fish, and many were also undertaking religious fasts. The king and about 1/6 of his men died of disease during the siege. For a long time. Their deaths were attributed to plague. But more recent research has found evidence of scurvy in the King's job own. Not long after this scurvy started to become a serious problem on European ships during long civil ages. And most of the literature that's related to his scurvy in history today is focused primarily on Europe and its colonies, mostly during the age of exploration, which was from about the 15 through the 17th centuries. But of course Europeans were not the only people taking to the sea. At this point. It's possible that other nations aren't as represented in English language literature because of language barriers or prejudice. It's also possible that scurvy was just not as much of a problem outside of European fleets most of the time. It takes between two months and 12 weeks without vitamin C for a person to develop scurvy. And while sailors from parts of Africa and Asia were taking voyages that lasted much longer than that, overall, often they were not going that long between stops to resupply. It also seems like they may have been doing a better job of providing their crews with foods rich in vitamin C past podcast subject. Even Batuta, who was from what's now Morocco and traveled extensively during the 14th century described green vegetables and ginger being grown in tanks on Chinese vessels. He also wrote about salted ginger pepper, lemons and mangoes being loaded onto ships in preparation for long voyages. Another previous podcast subject is Zhang Huh? Who led fleets of treasure ships from China all the way to Africa in the 15th century. We don't have lists of exactly what provisions he took. But we do know that his fleets included huge supply vessels whose whole purpose was sustaining the voyage itself and that the ships had kitchens that prepared meals for crews and passengers. There are also multiple references to tea and relationships, voyages, and he does contain some vitamin C. For the most part written records of scurvy on Chinese vessels Don't really start until the 19th century when people left China bound for California during the gold rush. But European ships were another story especially is European ships crossed whole oceans. People's diets were often restricted to salted meat and hard tack and not much else. Typically, any vegetables grown on board were only for the officers. Consequently, it's estimated that scurvy killed two million European sailors between the 15th century and the 19th Century, which is when Navy started to more consistently connect scurvy preventions of things like Citrus juice. During these centuries scurvy was the leading cause of death among sailors at sea. It was also a major cause of death among enslaved Africans during the transatlantic slave trade. Although the details of that aspect have not been nearly as specifically documented, as with ships cruise and we're going to talk about some more specific scurvy information after we first pause for little sponsor break You're listening to the I Heart radio weekend podcast featuring one of the biggest podcasts of the week on the free I Heart radio up now with over 250,000 podcasts to explore I have two dogs.
