Hey everybody.

2

Welcome back to another edition

of the Daily Bible Podcast.

3

Hello.

4

Hello.

5

What's up?

6

Did we answer all your

questions yesterday?

7

Because nobody wrote anymore in so we

must have answered all of your questions.

8

They would've had to really know

what we were talking about yesterday.

9

You, the person that wrote the

question yesterday, I'm really proud

10

of him for writing that question in.

11

I thought it was, and we could be proud

too of you if you wrote a question in too.

12

We could.

13

We could.

14

You could write it into podcasts@tx.org.

15

He's probably proud of

himself that he wrote it too.

16

I'm proud that I remembered.

17

Also whatever you listen on, we haven't

talked about this in a while, but if

18

you wouldn't mind leaving a review

and rating us, that would be awesome.

19

It, it's at the end of

every podcast still.

20

I believe Unless, okay,

unless you changed it.

21

I did not change it.

22

I haven't, I mean that, yes.

23

If you listen all the way to the end, I

know some people do that is always there.

24

So if you ever get the inkling

we will raffle off things to

25

anyone who gives us a perfect.

26

Five stars or above review, right.

27

And raves about the podcast up for grabs.

28

Pastor PJ's car.

29

You get to choose what

wrap we put on the car.

30

that's not, that's not true.

31

A free ride in Pastor Mark's car.,

32

anywhere you want.

33

Wherever the battery will take you.

34

Yes.

35

And also you can come into the

office and help Kelly file.

36

So those are three options.

37

You should see the options on the,

somebody updated the serve at Compass.

38

Did they form?

39

Did they form?

40

Somebody did form.

41

And I can't figure out who it is, but

the options that they added were awesome.

42

You should go take a look at

the serve at Compass sheet.

43

Well sign up.

44

One person did submit a volunteering

to serve signup form, and they

45

may share a last name with you.

46

Yeah.

47

Well that's because I live with

the most humble and godly and

48

servings woman in the world.

49

Well, she, sorry.

50

Well, did great job

volunteering one of your sons.

51

Oh, well, yeah.

52

For this service, of course.

53

Yes.

54

He doesn't have a job, so he gets to

get volunteered for lots of things.

55

Volunteer.

56

It's part of being in a family.

57

Yeah.

58

You just gotta do those things.

59

Yeah.

60

Hey, pastor Mark's here, by the way.

61

Yeah, I am.

62

I am.

63

And my car was voluntold.

64

Yeah.

65

Yeah.

66

I talked, he was here.

67

I said, how do y'all brief?

68

I said, A little interjection,

and I said it was proud of them.

69

Okay.

70

There you did.

71

So that's true.

72

You did.

73

You did.

74

And I was proud of myself.

75

Well, we, yeah, please pray

for our student ministry.

76

Yes.

77

They're coming back today.

78

They went on not RWE yesterday, and

they're learning about some pretty

79

heavy topics, and this is the one that

was rescheduled after God's notice

80

us all in and canceled our plans.

81

And so this is not what we wanted,

but this is what we now have.

82

If you would think about

them today and pray for them.

83

They should be on their way back

some point this afternoon, but

84

we'd love for you to pray for

them, think about them, and then.

85

Lewis on Sunday is gonna give

us an update about how it went.

86

So we'd love to see you on Sunday

so you can hear all about that.

87

Yes.

88

Yeah, good call.

89

We should have probably brought

that up yesterday, but you can pray.

90

Here's a question I've got.

91

Do prayers work retroactively?

92

Yes.

93

Wow.

94

Without hesitation.

95

Yes.

96

Okay, so in other words, prove

it buddy writing by that.

97

If we're asking you to pray for

their return, can you pray today

98

for the teaching that's already

happened and already taken place?

99

Pastor Mark says, yes.

100

Yes.

101

Without hesitation.

102

Do you want to expound on that?

103

I have thought about this here.

104

Here's my contention.

105

On why such prayers would be appropriate,

should you regularly pray in such a way?

106

No, I don't think it's a

helpful way to regularly pray.

107

However, I'm praying that JFK survives

108

Sorry.

109

So, okay.

110

God is outside of time.

111

Yes.

112

God has created time.

113

Oh, he agree.

114

He is not restricted by the bounds

of time, and there's gonna be

115

points in your life where there's

uncertainty about things that may

116

have already been set in stone, right.

117

, that you can pray for, and I think

is appropriate to pray for is praying

118

that JFK come back to life or wasn't

shot or whatever, that wouldn't be.

119

A helpful application

of what I'm suggesting.

120

I think rather what I'm suggesting

is there are times when you can pray

121

for things that are uncertain in your

perspective, that are certain in God's

122

perspective, and perhaps even certain in

reality, you just may not be aware of it.

123

So does my praying for

example, the teaching from

124

this past two days at Revival.

125

Does my praying or not

praying change the outcome?

126

It would change the outcome.

127

Because otherwise you think about

David when the baby dies, right?

128

He actually stops praying.

129

Why is that?

130

He says it's because the baby is dead.

131

So I do think that there

is, well that's contradict.

132

I'm contradicting myself, aren't I?

133

Yes.

134

But I think the point you're

making is still helpful in that

135

the prayers have been cast.

136

You don't know what the outcome

is, but the Lord does and he could.

137

That's my point.

138

That's retroactively.

139

Credit your prayer account, so to

speak, and say, I'm gonna apply Pastor

140

Mark's prayers in the future to now.

141

Yeah.

142

I lost my train of thought in

the middle of what I was saying,

143

but yes, thank you for saving me.

144

I got you.

145

I was tracking and I think

I agree with the idea.

146

And, but the only difference in my

mind then is that, well, if we know

147

the outcome, could I still pray?

148

And you're saying probably not in

my mind then, well, then why pray?

149

I would pray maybe for my sake.

150

Because I wanna feel better about

whatever's happened or is happening.

151

Yeah.

152

I don't know that it necessarily

changes anything that God would do

153

if in fact it's already taken place.

154

I wouldn't discourage praying.

155

I would just pray regardless.

156

I'd rather you pray to the Lord than not.

157

But theologically, I'm having a hard

time putting the pieces together.

158

Although I fully understand your point.

159

God's outside of time.

160

I could pray outside.

161

I could pray in time, and he

can retroactively apply it.

162

I just don't see any examples of that

to give me great confidence that that's

163

the way that God intends it to work.

164

Yeah.

165

I think also the reason why that we pray,

even if we know the outcome, is I think

166

God sovereignly uses our prayers to bring

about the outcomes that he has ordained.

167

And I think that's one of the answers to

why pray of God is sovereign, because God

168

has ordained that we would pray for this

and we would pray a certain way for that

169

and ordained the outcome of that event to

be an answer to the prayer that we pray.

170

So I think he uses our prayers in the

accomplishing of his sovereign plan.

171

So even though he's sovereign.

172

I don't think anything really changes from

what he's ordained from eternity past,

173

and yet I think part of what he's ordained

is the fact that we would pray for those

174

things and he would answer those prayers

in accordance with what he's doing.

175

Amen.

176

I agree with you theologically.

177

The problem I have is the uhoh and

this is a conflict that I have in

178

my own thought on these things, is

then doesn't that strip it of all?

179

The passion, right?

180

If everything is set in stone and you're

just commanded to pray and I'm being a

181

little simplistic here intentionally, but

if everything's set in stone and you're

182

commanded to pray, then why not just

say some words to be done and move on?

183

Because you still have a relationship

with the guy that you're pranked.

184

They're in the pot, right?

185

And so I think the fact that you still

do have that relationship with him helps

186

to inform the passion in our prayers.

187

And I think even greater so,

gives us that reason to pray.

188

If he is fully sovereign, knowing

that, okay, Lord, you could use this

189

prayer as part of the accomplishing

of your plan in that person's life.

190

So I'm gonna pray passionately for the

salvation of my lost neighbor, because he

191

may use that as part of what he's going

to do to bring about that salvation.

192

So I don't think it occurs in

the vacuum of, Calvin's study of

193

going, well, God is stopping, so

build your bridge and get over it.

194

I think it frees us up with the

passion to pray all the more.

195

So knowing that he does use our prayers

in the accomplishing of his plan.

196

But I get what you're saying.

197

Yeah.

198

Again, I don't have a conflict

theologically with that.

199

It's more when it comes to my day-to-day

like life and the way I feel about

200

things, where that becomes a bigger issue.

201

Fair.

202

Hey, let's get into our daily

Bible reading for today.

203

Deuteronomy 33 through 34, 33.

204

Moses's.

205

Goodbye continues.

206

So Moses gives this blessing.

207

Speaking of things that change.

208

Does a blessing like this change anything

about any of the futures of these tribes?

209

Kinda like our prayer conversation

doesn't, it sounds a lot like that.

210

Feels like it.

211

What are your thoughts, pastor Mark,

do you have any thoughts on that?

212

Well, and it even goes to what

we're just talking about now, right?

213

Yeah.

214

Just a second ago.

215

Right.

216

Does the blessing as opposed

to the prayer, does it matter?

217

Does it matter?

218

Right.

219

If everything is locked in, is every,

if God is sovereign over everything,

220

then, why do we go through this?

221

I do think , that these

blessings do matter.

222

If they did not matter, then they

would not be part of Deuteronomy.

223

Right?

224

If God was putting these things in here

just for show or just for some sort

225

of demonstration of Moses's ability to

speak well that wouldn't serve us, right?

226

So this has to serve us somehow.

227

And I do think one of the ways it does

that is by showing us that these, it

228

does have importance, working out how

it works is a little bit more difficult.

229

Yeah, I agree with you.

230

And I think that these are meaningful

and they're meant to be understood as

231

God's word on the matter, which is why we

start talking about what are we reading?

232

This is Moses speaking.

233

Mm-hmm.

234

Yes.

235

But it is also the spirit of God

speaking through Moses, and so

236

it carries a different weight

than if it were just Pastor Mark.

237

Speaking of a blessing over Pastor

PJ and Kelly and Ali and Lewis.

238

There's more here than what meets the eye.

239

And because this is God's word through

Moses, we can see these words as

240

particularly binding, even if interesting

because one of the guys is missing, and

241

I'm sure he was probably scratching his

head saying, but what about me, Lisa?

242

I want some more Simeon's

not there, by the way.

243

Well, and Joseph gets, e

freeman manas get combined.

244

Yeah, I'm okay with that.

245

Yeah they're both from his line,

which I understand that, but

246

poor Simeon, like, where's he.

247

Why is he neglected?

248

And there's que there's

questions about that.

249

We don't know why he was,

why is Simeon not there?

250

But he isn't.

251

I looked.

252

Twice.

253

Dan gets such a short blessing

that maybe his is just so short

254

it didn't even get a word.

255

Maybe that's what it was.

256

What about Asher?

257

Asher's blessing is interesting.

258

He says, most blessed of sons be Asher.

259

Let him be the favorite of his brothers

and let him dip his foot in oil.

260

You think Asher's the tribe of

Judah with the language that he's

261

getting here as far as being the

tribe to bring about the Messiah.

262

Asher's kind of a small player.

263

This just strong language for Asher here.

264

That's something that

jumped out this time around.

265

And I've read different things while

his name means happy and he had a

266

fruitful and fertile area of the

promised land associated to him.

267

I don't know, it's just an interesting

one from, from the blessing of Asher here.

268

Yeah.

269

And part of this is that we don't know all

the particulars of how God works this out.

270

That's what's so interesting

about the biblical narrative.

271

We read it be, and we rightly

ascribe to it a comprehensiveness.

272

We say that there's the

word is plenary inspired.

273

The whole thing is inspired of God now.

274

But just because as true

doesn't mean it's comprehensive.

275

It doesn't tell us everything

that happened or all the

276

ways that it played out.

277

In fact, there's a ton of

questions that we come up against

278

in the text that we don't get.

279

Amazing answers to, well, we think,

well, we're just gonna have to trust

280

that the Lord, Deuteronomy 29 29,

the secret things belong to the Lord.

281

We don't have all of our answers,

all of our questions answered.

282

But what we do have is sufficient

to make a really strong case for

283

one thing or another, and everything

we need for life and godliness.

284

Second Peter one is there.

285

We have all that we need.

286

It is sufficient, but it

is not comprehensive in

287

the way that we often want.

288

Yeah.

289

One of the other things that's

interesting about this is, this is

290

coming on the heels of Deuteronomy 31,

where the Lord said to Moses, none of

291

these people are gonna do anything that

is worthy or honorable or righteous.

292

But yet there's some hints here for

sure, that there is, there's problems

293

in these blessings, but there're

also being blessed nonetheless.

294

Yeah, it's an amazing,

it's an amazing thing.

295

That's great.

296

This blessing is coming to these

people despite the fact that they were.

297

Just told that they would not be able

to do any of the things they have to.

298

You're gonna fail miserably, but

here's a blessing for you regardless.

299

That's a great point.

300

Chapter 34 contains the death of Moses,

which I found myself a little bit

301

sad about to leave Moses behind us.

302

We're gonna continue reading.

303

I know, Moses died a long time

ago, but I was reading, I was

304

like, oh man, Moses is gone now.

305

Just feeling it today.

306

Huh?

307

Enjoying feeling, Moses and his leadership

as we were reading through, but 120 years

308

old, he's taken up on this mountain.

309

He's allowed to see the promised land and

then the Lord takes him and it says there.

310

That his eye was not dimmed

and is vigor unabated.

311

The people of Israel wet for

Moses in the plains of mo 30 days.

312

That's how I wanna go out my eye,

not dimmed in my vigor unabated.

313

Th this, he's fully healthy, which

goes to show again, this is not Moses

314

dying accidentally of natural causes.

315

This is Moses dying because God was

bringing the discipline into his life

316

that he said he was going to when

Moses disobeyed and struck the rock.

317

It's interesting here that we

don't read and it was your fault

318

again that this happened to me.

319

This is why.

320

Right.

321

What is super cool though, is

that God himself buried Moses.

322

You see that in verse six.

323

Well, you have to back up to verse five to

get the context, but it says here Moses,

324

a servant, the Lord died there in the

land of Moab, according to the word of

325

the Lord, and he buried him in the valley

of the land of Moab opposite Beth Peor.

326

Nobody knows where Moses is buried,

and God kept that secret for.

327

Some good purpose.

328

I assume, in fact, there's this

interesting account in the Book

329

of Enoch that talks about Moses'

body being argued over between the

330

angel, Gabriel or Michael, I can't

remember which angel do either.

331

You guys recall and the devil,

there's a dispute over his body.

332

Do you guys have any

insight or input on that?

333

Clearly no one knows who his body

was because God, I think didn't want

334

them to venerate him or make his

bone some kind of shrin or altar.

335

And so God took care of business here.

336

But anything about, it's

Jude nine where we read that.

337

Maybe the dispute wasn't, and

I think what you just said,

338

they didn't want him venerated.

339

Maybe the dispute was the devil

wanted to reveal where he was and

340

yet God was saying, oh, interesting.

341

No, that's not gonna happen.

342

And so I want to keep it concealed

because I don't want venerated, I

343

don't want him to turn be turned

into an idol as that people were

344

prone to, to be quite idolatrous.

345

I would've to agree with that.

346

I think there's many things that

God does to prevent his people,

347

including us today in the New

Covenant from becoming idolaters.

348

Yeah.

349

Well, let me just read to you

Jude nine, just so you guys

350

have a reference for that.

351

It says, but when the Archangel

Michael, it was Michael, not Gabriel,

352

contending with the devil, was

disputing about the body of Moses.

353

He did not presume to pronounce

a blasphemous judgment, but

354

said the Lord rebuke you.

355

That's in the book of Jude, the

one little one chapter book and by

356

the way, Jude is quoting from, if

I'm not mistaken the book of Enoch.

357

Yes.

358

Yeah.

359

Which is apocryphal.

360

Which is apocryphal.

361

Yeah.

362

And not in our Bibles.

363

Correct.

364

Which is why it's called apocryphal.

365

Yes.

366

Yep.

367

Well, you don't get to miss out on

Moses too long, so don't be too sad.

368

Okay, because in just a couple days

we're gonna be reading from Luke

369

nine and guess who shows up there?

370

Oh yes, that's true.

371

So you won't have to miss him too long.

372

So don't be too sad.

373

One of the things, so Moses

does make it to the promise.

374

Well, that's what I wanted to point

out, which is that it is true that.

375

The death of Moses is judgment.

376

But here's another example of God being

gracious, and Moses actually does make

377

it to the promised land, despite God's

judgment here in Deuteronomy, the better

378

promised land, the true promised land.

379

Well, that one and the proverbial

promised land, I guess.

380

Yes, both.

381

Both.

382

And very generous of God to do that.

383

Yeah.

384

All right.

385

Let's flip over to Luke chapter 1,

24 through 56, and we have another

386

announcement of an impending birth.

387

This time, it is the announcement

of Jesus' impending birth to Mary.

388

And so Mary is greeted by the angel.

389

She's terrified.

390

The angel says Greetings will favored

one, and then proceeds to tell

391

her that she's gonna have a baby.

392

Mary's pretty sharp.

393

She says, I've never known a man,

and so how is this gonna be possible?

394

Now again, there's a difference

here between Mary's questioning.

395

Ann Zacharia is questioning.

396

And the reason we know this is because

Mary's not disciplined for this.

397

In fact the Angel Condescends to Mary

to continue to explain things to her to

398

say, this is what this is gonna be like.

399

This is what's gonna happen to you.

400

And it prompts in response, a humility

and a, an act of worship from Mary as

401

she proceeds with the, what we call the

Magnifico there in verses 47 through 56.

402

But Mary is Mary's commendable for the

way that she receives this announcement

403

from this angel in this text.

404

Yeah, super cool here.

405

John the Baptist is six

months older than Jesus.

406

We assume a family relationship

here that would make John the

407

Baptist and Jesus probably cousins.

408

That's a really safe bet.

409

Maybe they had a slightly different

familial relationship, but at

410

least we would say they're related.

411

And what's happening here is

fun because you see in verse 26

412

that John is six months older.

413

There's a six month.

414

You also see that in verse 36.

415

This is the sixth month with

her, who is called Barren.

416

And then you'll also see one

super cool thing, verse 41, when

417

Elizabeth heard the greeting of

Mary John got hyped, he's excited.

418

He jumps up and I don't know

what else he's doing in the womb.

419

I know some moms, when we had

our kids, when the kids would

420

move in the belly, especially for

the first time, really exciting.

421

Super creepy at the same time,

but also really exciting.

422

This has gotta be.

423

For, Elizabeth clearly understood

this more than just, oh he's alert.

424

He saw, she saw this as him being excited

that she was in the presence, or he was in

425

the presence of the soon coming Messiah.

426

How does John know this?

427

How does John the Baptist

know this in the mom's womb?

428

She interprets it that way, and we assume

that's what's happening, but he's okay.

429

I don't know.

430

I'm stoked, I'm excited.

431

I'm perplexed all at the same time.

432

It's a wonder of wonders.

433

He's filled with the spirit.

434

It's the spirit is

controlling the baby, right?

435

Sure, yeah.

436

Outside of John's control.

437

I'm just saying as one who came outta

the charismatic movement, you could seize

438

this to be like, look, this is evidence

we should be leaping and jumping and

439

dancing in the aisles during worship

if we're truly spirit controlled.

440

Well, yeah I won't push back to you

on you too hard, but I just think this

441

is phenomenally cool and we read it

quickly because we're used to it, but

442

it's one of those things where if you

just stopped and thought about what

443

this, what's happening and what it

means, I am, I'm just flabbergasted.

444

Yes.

445

Super cool.

446

It is really cool.

447

I think that's the response

you're supposed to have though.

448

I agree.

449

I think that's the response

you're supposed to have

450

when you read this passage.

451

I think you're not supposed to necessarily

be able to figure out all the components

452

or how the nuts and bolts go together.

453

I want to though.

454

Well, that's not a bad thing.

455

Okay.

456

But I do think that you're, I think

the reason it is the way it is to

457

draw you to that sort of praise.

458

If you were able to figure out all

of those different components and you

459

were able to put the puzzle together.

460

I'm not, it might not have

the majesty and the incredible

461

nature that this passage has.

462

I thought you were gonna say

magic, which I did not say magic.

463

I thought you were gonna say that though.

464

Might not have all the magic that it has.

465

Yeah, I agree.

466

This is a great text and this

is why reading it and rereading

467

it is so important because

you just tend to skip things.

468

Yeah.

469

Your mind fills in the blanks and you

forget, oh, this is actually very unique.

470

Yeah.

471

Well, and I think it's probably

worth pointing out too.

472

I mentioned Mary's commendable.

473

I preached a sermon on Mary's

response, and at the same time,

474

we can't commit the era that the

Catholic Church commits with Mary.

475

This is not something where Mary

needs to be worshiped or venerated.

476

Mary is a servant of the Lord.

477

She's the one that's chosen.

478

This does not put Mary in a class

that she is above other people

479

or worthy to be elevated or

prayed to or anything else like.

480

That.

481

And we see that even in her response,

she acknowledges her own humble

482

estate and she doesn't say, I'm

gonna reign and I'm gonna be the coem

483

tricks and everything else like that.

484

And so I think we have to guard

against that and be able to say,

485

yeah, Mary's commendable without

saying, Hey, we're saying we should

486

worship Mary and want to be like Mary.

487

Yeah.

488

Because we should be

people who see ourselves.

489

Able to say the same thing that Mary said.

490

Yeah, right.

491

We should be able to say to God,

behold, I'm a servant of the Lord.

492

Let it be to me, according to your word.

493

If we make Mary something that she's not

and we say she's sinless, she's perfect.

494

We should worship her, pray

to her, et cetera, et cetera.

495

I think it removes that

impetus for our own lives.

496

Right.

497

We are like Mary in many ways, and what

an amazing thing it is that she says

498

that and we ought to say the same thing.

499

Well, and then she also

pens this chart topper too.

500

Mary's also contributing to Israel's

top 10 list, and she says in verse

501

47, my soul magnifies the Lord in

my spirit rejoices in God my savior.

502

So clearly she recognized that

she needed a savior just as

503

much as the next John Doe.

504

And this was, this song is

evidence of her theological

505

prowess for being a young lady.

506

And we think that Mary could have

been as young as early teens, super

507

uncomfortable for us in modern America,

but the timing of a family and beginning

508

a family was way earlier for them.

509

They didn't have as long

a life predicted as we do.

510

And so their start to life as they

understood it was far earlier and that was

511

appropriate and fitting for their season.

512

But you'll read as you look at these

verses that she penned she's got a

513

great theological head on her shoulders.

514

Yeah, she does.

515

For a young lady, any young lady.

516

Yeah.

517

But especially for the mother of

God, this makes perfect sense.

518

Yeah.

519

How much do you think

she understood about.

520

The child she was carrying did,

do you think she connected the

521

dots at this being the Messiah?

522

Are you asking Mary, did you know?

523

Did you know?

524

And I bring that up because 54

and 55, he has helped his servant

525

Israel in remembrance of his mercy

as he spoke to our fathers to

526

Abraham into his offspring forever.

527

I think she's even alluding to the

fulfillment of the Abrahamic covenant,

528

at least part of it there, which I

think going back to verses 32 and 33,

529

the announcement, he will be great and

will be called Son of the most high.

530

The Lord God will give to him

the throne of his father, David.

531

So I think she is making some pretty

robust theological connections.

532

To your point, pastor

Rod, she knew her stuff.

533

And so she didn't know about the cross.

534

She didn't know about the death of

him and everything else, but I think

535

she knew quite a bit at this point.

536

Yeah, I agree.

537

She's clearly she's got some stuff

figured out how much she knows.

538

You'll have to ask her according to the

song lyrics when you see her in heaven

539

and then see if she gets annoyed with you.

540

I don't think she can

get annoyed in heaven.

541

I'll take that back.

542

But verse 56 tells us that she stayed with

Elizabeth for three months, and if she's

543

around the six month timeframe when she

shows up, that means she's pretty near

544

term when she either, and maybe she was

there for the birth of John the Baptist.

545

That would be really cool.

546

Yeah, we don't know, but there you go.

547

All right, let's pray and they'll

be done with this episode.

548

Lord, we are grateful that you showed

up to Mary and you showed up with this

549

announcement, with this news of the

birth of the Savior and that you saw

550

fit to come to earth to come after

us in the form of Christ, in the form

551

of the second member of the Trinity.

552

And so we pray, God, that we would never

lose the a, the wonder the on the wonder

553

that even Mary had here as she reflected

and pray that we would have the same

554

heart posture before you to say whatever

you see fit, do as you see fit to us.

555

We want to be your servants.

556

As we seek to avail ourselves to

you, and so we're grateful for this.

557

We're thankful for your word, and

thankful for the day that you've given us.

558

We pray all this in Jesus name.

559

Amen.
