Bro Timothy Grant 10-1-2023

M as I need in the darkness in the middle of night, grady,

for You're right, It's done what I see in the other battle round to

be. I'm graid. I'm home be as long and I go down in

me out. Do you remember where I brought you from? To just take

behind you? And how on you every time you asked me, NESI so

far did you gay? I'm play to say en, he says in not

wall, go the wall, not all the rage and scenes. I to

wait un dom see you wake you all, hide wall beside you. You

all didn't not leave all to pity was to die before see I sursed until

I found you, understand, and I get it all now she's all to

do her father in the house that was once a hole. She said,

the field and mine and your six days of my name all was still alone

and not getting more. And I'll do this little thing and I'll be so

much. I wall all days gone on the rae. I do much my

road to kust me. He night me you win you all, I all

try beside you, just so the all did not get all? He doesn't.

I for dance not us to my counting, and I g it all

a day when all water, not all the rage, and see my school

chick win me put my run to Christ. You night, all all trying

to ride you not so good? All didn't not all day does the die

or seeing I search and tell and I he said, now you curse me

where I brought you to. Jo came to look behind you and heart I

fell he time in your hasty died. He live in Pa. So I

want to be now. I s my word to rescue me. Be read

hall, I try inside and just so you wear not arolla, just to

die for a chance my person chill f on the downtain and I listen at

all beside, lay in the darkness and slight times. Fine pray, oh

sure, and everything's done, be all what I see the lovely bangles out

in from fine pray. I wont and I go down in you, he

said, I go and open the waters my gon a red turn. I

to wake my love to Christ. Now all the time trying to decide to

talk today, not leave all the kid just dive over your hands. I

search them, telling about that I do. All the kids appreciate the Lord.

This stays so glad the mercies of God, Christ of God, they

said, good, get to God back in the House of God with you

in this morning. So appreciate the Lord and all that he's done for us

of the time that he moved as balty, and the same quality different this

morning. But I don't matter if you still worship, even though if they

feel a little strength. So Luke twenty three, verse one said, that's

where I want to I'm sorry thirty nine verse thirty nine, and one of

the male factors which were hanged railed on you know the same if tabby Christ,

save thyself and us. But the other answering rebuked him, the saying,

who does not thou fear God? Seemed thou art in the same condemnation,

And we indeed justly, for we received a due reward of our deeds.

But this man had done nothing amiss. And he said, unto Jesus,

Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. And Jesus said,

unto him, barely, I say unto thee today, thou shalt be

with me in paradise. And it was about the sixth hour. There was

darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour, and the sun was darkened,

and the veil of the temple was rent in the mist. And when

Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy

hands, I commend my spirit and have said. And having said us,

he gave up the ghost. Now when the Satyrians saw what was done,

he glorified God, saying, certainly this was a righteous man. And all

the people that came together to that sight beholding the things which were done,

smoked their breast and returned, And all his acquaintance and the women that followed

him from Galilee stood afar off, beholding these things you may be seeing.

Thank you for standing for the way of the word of God. And does

I thought as I got to look at these setting of scriptures, and the

Bible told us they're in the footy fourth verse. And it was about the

sixth hour, and there was darkness over all the earth until the ninth pound.

The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was wind in

the midst And what got me to looking at this s was we've done devotions

the other night, and I had told Javin, we've talked about the story

where that Jesus disciples was on the shield. Yeah, and Jesus came to

them in the fourth watch. On the fourth watch, you've got four watchers

during the night, and those watchers start in the evening. The first watches

from you six to mine. Second watch is from nine to twelve, third

watch is from twelve to three, and the fourth watch was from four from

three to six. They say that the darkest hour of the night is right

before dawn. The darkest hour of the night is right before But I noticed

right in the middle of the day, if you will, right in the

middle of the day, as Jesus was being crucified. The four three gospels

talked about it and said, from the sixth hour to the ninth hour,

it was darkness on the face of the whole way. It was a dark

hour for the disciples. It was a dark time for those that followed Christ.

They're bewit him. Everything was bright, everything was wonderful. Okay,

he was heading, he was saving the sick, he was delivered. Amen.

The blind was seen, and the death was hearing, and the Dame

was talking, the triple was walking. Everything was wonderful, and all of

a sudden things changed. All of a sudden things took the turn. Amen,

And I read you Amen. Each gospel different ones. Maybe you know

how to stay amen lately just a little bit different. And the reason that

I chose and man this portion here and loom and man, it is because

it said and it was about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over

all the earth until the night hour, and men and the sun was darkened

in the bell and the temple was rich in the midst amount of every scripcher,

every scripcher that I read. I don't know if anything that took place.

I don't know if anything that happened. It was so dark and it

was so amount to every one of them dons. Nothing that took place between

the sixth hounds or nothing. Did you notice it? You know? In

Matthew in Mark, I thought, how could anything such a dark time?

And if we know the story when he was thrilled that he died and were

thrilled that he went through, it may be because the south I shut up

by man was at the darkest hour. I die live that math day followed

that man that live, that mad day I brought light of the world.

Was I died, He was a die and it was dark, hey,

man, and the top it all off, and man that failed that hardly

stuff holdly that place I contact Christ shiny and that I can't shine. I

that fell was rect to them. It must have been a horrible thing I'm

talking about to them, it must have been a dark, dark hour.

Huh, yeah, I don't get me wrong. They was thrilled. A

wouldn't be so thrilled. Oh that Jesus died and then it rose again had

been, and that veil was real, and then it gave us access and

then gave us access to that place. The one night I have been one

night it was dark, I thought. I looked at the I've done told

you. The fourth Watch comes between three am. Let's see, say said.

The fourth watch represents the most comfortable time, the most difficult time,

the time of last breadth, the time when we have lost all. And

I wanted to go to Mark every man. I'm sorry. Matthew. The

fourteenth chapter, Matthew, the fourteenth chapter. Addn't on any of this before

came back field. Okay, I didn't know anything. I found out something

right there in that way. But the Lord had already dealt with already late

The Scripture of My Heart and fourteen Matthew fourteen and verse twenty two and straightway.

Jesus constrained every man, constrained his disciples to get into a ship and

to go before him on and to the other side. He sent the multip

away. And when he had sent the multitude away, he went up into

a mountain apart to pray. And when the evening was kne he was there

alone. But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed

with waves, for the wind was contrary. This was evening. This was

evening, you could call it the sixth hour of the day. And the

winds was already contrary. And the storm had hardly come up. And they

had laborden, and they had fought, and they had battled that storm,

and they had weathered that stormy man, no doubt. An hour the amen,

and two hours and darkness begin to fall. I and three hours and

amen. It was about nine o'clock, was it? Amen? And they

told them, and the battle alone, Amen, ber the howl. We're

barely into the storm, and we brother, and amen, according to the

doctor. Amen, according to what they say, we had barely begun into

the storm. And they're told, and they labor and the battle, and

I begud to help me. Amen. The labor at all, and the

batt alone and they fall They be an hour four four five, our said,

Amen, And there was about dead light and I run now, and

I'm sure there wasn't no stars, and I'm sure it was dark. I'm

sir. The battle was hard. I'm sure I was out, lad.

And they follow out and they bat alone, and they wear out. They

rolled and they rode and they tried, Amen, get it back to bad.

Amen, and they follow on and they battle alone, the hardship hard

about three o'clock in the morn. Oh, and now we have amen reached

the fourth watch. Amen. We don't know what what hour, dear,

and that fourth watch, AmAm, that Jesus came, Amen. But I'm

sure they feared for the lives. I'm sure I feel like all hope was

gone. They didn't know what to do. They didn't know what I say,

They didn't know what else they that accomplish. They had labord, that

labor, that labor. Somewhere around nine hours and they were and it looked

like, oh who was gone? And all of a sudden, what Jesus

came walking from the water. I loved life. All hope was done,

heymen, I didn't I leave all of them pymen to die for share.

Say, Amen, I said I've done fill over, I din we gotta

scene, but the house it's not over till it's a hymn. It's not

over till it's over. Amen. God knows what I can do. And

haven't God understand that he knows? Hey man, it's just hold on.

They won't be along and jess well come and our mans walking over the wild

took a lever time to glass, don't gather right, don't give uh.

There's been people that's been textab before. Amen. There's been people that's been

a hill before. Amen. I don't know the song. I don't know

how don't I ain't been, but I said something about there's a promise coming

down that dusty road. Amen, God, it's gonna love like everything before.

Why should I not? Uh? What's gonna do? He's not through?

Uh, if they had four days they was weeping and they was a

over the scene. But Jesus stepped over the scene. It wasn't too late,

right, it wasn't too late. He told him to roll the stone
