[20:06] amen praise the Lord for that aren't you
[20:09] thankful it rescued your
[20:28] number
[21:28] of
[21:30] saw
[22:19] preacher preach on the passage and say
[22:21] where are the nine they should have came
[22:24] back and thanked
[22:26] God but there's some characteristics of
[22:28] about the
[22:29] one that I want to point to
[22:32] today because many of
[22:36] us
[22:37] miss the
[22:40] Miracles miss the Miracles so three
[22:44] words in this passage that we want to
[22:46] draw our attention to when he
[22:53] saw when he saw all were cleansed but
[23:00] he's the only one who saw it let's go to
[23:03] the Lord in prayer this morning de
[23:05] Heavenly Father Lord I Thank you for the
[23:06] opportunity to preach your word today
[23:08] Lord I pray that you would please
[23:09] cleanse me of sin and empty me of myself
[23:11] that I might get out of the way this
[23:13] morning and your word may go forth Lord
[23:15] I pray that you'd speak to our hearts
[23:17] today challenge us from your word
[23:19] encourage us Lord this morning I pray
[23:22] Lord we're so thankful for you Lord I
[23:25] pray today that if there's someone here
[23:27] today that does not know you as Savior
[23:29] that today would be their day of
[23:31] salvation Lord I pray you'd bind Satan
[23:34] keep him far from this place this
[23:36] morning Lord in your name I pray amen
[23:38] thank you for standing you may be
[23:44] seated all 10 were
[23:48] healed but only one of them saw the
[23:52] miracle all 10 were
[23:55] cleansed only one saw the miracle and
[24:00] when he saw it verse 15 he turned back
[24:05] and with a loud voice now I can relate
[24:08] to
[24:09] that with a loud voice
[24:14] glorified
[24:15] God fell down at his feet fell down on
[24:19] his face at his feet giving him thanks
[24:28] he saw
[24:29] it and in seeing the
[24:32] miracle he turns back and he falls down
[24:36] on his face and he
[24:38] worships
[24:41] Jesus the worship of
[24:44] thanks ought to be evident in every
[24:48] believer's
[24:52] life now I I've seen
[24:56] it the struggle is for
[25:00] many is that the worship of thanks is
[25:04] not what you
[25:06] got but who you
[25:10] got to have a true worship of than it's
[25:13] not what you got but it's who you
[25:18] got I've
[25:20] seen those that have
[25:25] everything be unthankful to God
[25:29] because he's given them so
[25:33] much and so I've also
[25:36] seen people who have
[25:39] nothing who got a little bit and were
[25:43] extremely thankful to God and cried
[25:46] aloud with a loud voice and gave praise
[25:49] unto him so I guess we could say it this
[25:52] way worship of thanks is not an economic
[25:56] thing it's not an economic
[26:00] thing you say well if I had all that I
[26:04] had want then I'd be thankful no it's
[26:06] not an economic
[26:09] thing I've seen those that have
[26:12] wonderful
[26:14] Health be unthankful to
[26:19] God but I've seen people with cancer
[26:22] throughout their
[26:25] body on their last breath
[26:29] thanking God for another
[26:32] breath so it's not an economic thing and
[26:35] it's not a health
[26:38] thing I've seen people that have come to
[26:42] church in the nicest of cards and the
[26:44] nicest of things and sat in the service
[26:47] and didn't do a
[26:49] thing and I've seen others who walked
[26:53] in with
[26:56] nothing walked in with nothing
[27:00] and praise the Lord with everything they
[27:04] done see the problem is it's not an
[27:07] economic thing and it's not a health
[27:09] thing some people just don't see the
[27:16] Miracles so I'm going to help us with
[27:19] the Lord's help I'm going to try to help
[27:21] us this morning Albert Einstein you ever
[27:23] heard of him Albert Einstein quoted
[27:27] about miracles
[27:29] Albert Einstein said of Miracles there
[27:30] are only two ways to live your
[27:33] life one is as though nothing is a
[27:38] miracle the other is as though
[27:41] everything is a
[27:46] miracle Albert Einstein said there's two
[27:48] ways to live your life one is that
[27:50] nothing is a miracle the other is though
[27:54] everything is a miracle
[27:59] so the phrase we're drawing our
[28:00] attention to is when he
[28:03] saw he
[28:05] recognized
[28:06] God's
[28:08] Miracles and you and I ought to pay
[28:13] attention to God at work in our lives we
[28:17] ought to pay attention Glenn scrier said
[28:19] this Christians believe in the Virgin
[28:22] birth of Jesus Amen we do atheists
[28:26] believe in the Virgin birth of the UN
[28:29] Universe choose your
[28:32] Miracle atheists believe that bang it
[28:35] just exploded
[28:37] and we came from
[28:40] that that's their miracle that they hung
[28:43] on to they said it can't be that there
[28:45] was a virgin named Mary who gave birth
[28:48] to a sinless man named Jesus who lived
[28:51] upon this Earth and died on the cross
[28:53] they said no that can't
[28:55] happen but they believe that two balls
[28:59] of gas collided and exploded and made
[29:01] the
[29:04] world you got to choose your Miracle
[29:07] this contrast can emphasize this that
[29:10] our faith leads us to give glory to God
[29:15] for the
[29:17] miraculous While others Miss
[29:21] see we ought to give glory to God for
[29:23] the
[29:25] miraculous and others they just miss
[29:28] it so I want to talk about some
[29:31] miraculous things this
[29:35] morning number one this morning the
[29:37] miracle of the
[29:39] universe the miracle of the universe can
[29:42] you imagine this
[29:44] morning how many of you have seen the
[29:46] sunrise
[29:47] before now put your hands down if you
[29:51] only saw that one
[29:52] time if you only saw the sunrise one
[29:56] time you'd go wow
[29:59] you would even say it backwards
[30:02] wow you'd just be enthralled by the
[30:06] sunrise watching the sun come up over
[30:08] the horizon and the spray of colors that
[30:11] are across the sky we'd be marveled and
[30:14] say what a marvelous side if you've ever
[30:17] Sat by the ocean and watch the sun set
[30:20] on the ocean and watch the waves as
[30:22] they're coming in and see the colors of
[30:24] the Sun as it goes down along the
[30:26] horizon you wow what a miraculous God
[30:31] cuz we don't believe in the Big Bang we
[30:33] believe that God created everything that
[30:36] he's the creator of the universe that
[30:39] God said let there be and there was
[30:42] because he said so so that if you only
[30:45] saw it though one
[30:47] time if you only saw the sunset across
[30:50] the ocean one
[30:52] time you'd have a miraculous
[30:55] appreciation for God's creation
[31:00] but because you see it every day as you
[31:02] drive into
[31:03] work it's just
[31:06] routine
[31:08] mundane sun comes up sun goes down well
[31:11] who
[31:12] do some of you don't notice the sun goes
[31:15] down till daylight savings
[31:17] time you're like it's 4:30 in the
[31:20] afternoon and the sun went
[31:24] down now because it's disrupted your
[31:27] evening of events now you notice cuz
[31:30] well it's affected what I want to
[31:33] do
[31:34] but how many of you ever have days that
[31:37] you feel like you didn't accomplish
[31:39] anything anybody ever have days you feel
[31:41] like all right well I want to help you
[31:42] today something for you to think about
[31:45] the Earth that God created spins at
[31:48] 1,000 miles per
[31:51] hour it speeds through space at 67,000
[32:01] miles do you know what that means on a
[32:05] day that you felt like you did nothing
[32:08] you traveled
[32:10] 1.6 million
[32:16] miles on your nothing day yeah no wonder
[32:19] we're tired all the time right brother
[32:20] said yeah no wonder we got jet
[32:22] lag 1.6 million miles a day
[32:29] hey hey the world that God created is
[32:32] tilted on its
[32:34] access and it's tilted in such a way
[32:36] that one degree One Direction you'd
[32:38] freeze on parts of the world and one
[32:40] degree the other direction you'd burn up
[32:43] that's no accident that's a miracle God
[32:46] put it right where he put it right at
[32:48] the angle that he put it he provides all
[32:51] the things that he does Psalm 191 look
[32:54] at your Bibles Psalm
[32:56] 19:1 God's cre Creation The Miraculous
[32:59] of the universe we get so caught up in
[33:02] the mundane well the sun came up and the
[33:04] sun went down the sun came up and the
[33:06] sun down and we forget that God put it
[33:09] however many miles he put it away he put
[33:11] it right there at that moment in time
[33:13] he's got the Earth tilted on its axis at
[33:15] right the right degrees Psalm 19 verse
[33:18] number one the heavens declare the glory
[33:22] of God and the firmament showeth his
[33:26] handiwork hey my all you got to do is
[33:29] stop for a minute and look at the
[33:31] creation of God and recognize it's a
[33:33] miracle that God created this world it's
[33:36] a miracle the way he created it it's a
[33:39] miracle he put all the things in place
[33:41] all the stars where they're at that he
[33:43] tilted the world on its axis it's a
[33:46] miracle the world the Bible tells us the
[33:48] heavens declare the glory of God and the
[33:52] firmament showeth his handywork but most
[33:54] of us we don't
[33:56] care it's mundane it's routine unless
[34:00] watch this unless it interferes with
[34:02] what I want to do I don't even notice if
[34:04] the sun comes up and the sun comes down
[34:06] we miss the
[34:08] miracle we miss
[34:11] it secondly I want to talk to you this
[34:13] morning about the Miracles of our
[34:16] body Miracles of our
[34:18] body the average heart beats 100,000
[34:22] times a day the average heart beats
[34:25] 100,000 times a day that heart heart
[34:27] pumps 2,000 gallons of blood through
[34:32] your body the average heart 2,000
[34:34] gallons of blood
[34:36] circulate I know it's not 2,000 gallons
[34:38] at one time but it's the equivalent of
[34:40] it traveling around through your body
[34:43] and that travels through
[34:46] 60,000 miles of blood
[34:50] vessels and every day every moment
[34:54] that's
[34:55] happening but what we don't notice till
[34:58] we get a cut and then we start bleeding
[35:00] oh wait look at my
[35:04] blood come on but right now as you're
[35:07] sitting here the miracle of God's design
[35:10] your heart is pumping and sending blood
[35:13] throughout your body and circulating it
[35:15] every day all day every day all day
[35:19] through this practice that God designed
[35:21] and created it is a miraculous thing
[35:24] that God has done but yet most of us
[35:27] don't pay anything any attention until
[35:28] it affects our
[35:31] day why because we're not seeing the
[35:34] miracle we're not seeing the miracle
[35:36] that God designed it that even when I'm
[35:39] laying in my bed sleeping he's still
[35:42] pumping he's still sending blood
[35:45] traveling
[35:46] through the Bible tells us the life is
[35:48] in the
[35:49] blood before doctors figured it out God
[35:52] already said
[35:54] it but it travels through all all those
[35:58] intricate blood
[35:59] vessels all through those locations that
[36:03] God has
[36:04] designed unless you get in an regular
[36:07] heartbeat or a heartbeat that interferes
[36:10] with your day most of us most of us
[36:13] don't pay attention to the miracle of
[36:15] the
[36:17] heartbeat but it's
[36:19] miraculous God put it in you God
[36:22] designed it for you but we don't see
[36:26] it the rest respiratory processes that
[36:28] are happening in our lungs with the
[36:31] exchanging of oxygen and converting it
[36:33] and sending it throughout the
[36:35] body your body does that because God
[36:38] designed it to do
[36:43] that just that process right there
[36:46] breathing in and breathing out is
[36:51] miraculous oh if you don't believe
[36:53] me quit doing
[36:56] it it alter your
[37:01] life if you don't allow God's miracle to
[37:04] happen in your life or breathing in
[37:06] breathing out it'll affect
[37:08] you but listen listen though we go
[37:11] throughout our day and we just ignore
[37:12] that Miracle hey before we get on to the
[37:14] other nine let's remind ourselves that
[37:17] uh we don't always pay attention to the
[37:19] Miracles that God's put in us and around
[37:21] us Psalm
[37:24] 139:14 Psalm
[37:26] 13914 turn in your Bibles to Psalm
[37:28] 139:14 you ought to underline this verse
[37:30] in your Bible if you haven't
[37:34] already Psalm 139 and verse number
[37:39] 14 I will praise thee for I am fearfully
[37:45] and wonderfully made marvelous are thy
[37:49] works and that my soul knoweth right
[37:55] well a child child is Not an
[37:59] Accident a child is a human being at
[38:04] conception did you know in the womb at
[38:07] 20
[38:09] weeks a female child has all the eggs
[38:14] she will ever have in her
[38:19] life at five
[38:22] weeks excuse me five months 20 weeks in
[38:25] the womb a female child child has all
[38:28] the eggs she will ever produce in her
[38:30] little body at that moment in
[38:34] time I was thinking about that this
[38:37] week that means the egg that became my
[38:40] son was in the womb of my
[38:43] mother-in-law when she was expecting my
[38:45] wonderful
[38:52] wife you aren't so happy about
[38:55] it okay let me help you
[38:59] before I was even
[39:02] born God already had plans for my future
[39:08] son he'd already produced part of what
[39:11] would be needed for him to come into
[39:13] this world he we are fearfully and
[39:16] wonderfully made it is a miracle the
[39:19] child birth it is a miracle that what
[39:21] God does it's a miracle that at that
[39:23] moment before my wife had even entered
[39:25] into this world God already had a plan
[39:28] for my son to be born that means he
[39:30] already had a plan for me to meet my
[39:33] wife that means he already had a plan to
[39:35] do a work in our
[39:38] life oh it's just what a
[39:41] coincidence that's a miraculous
[39:45] thing I learned this week about the zinc
[39:48] spark that happens at
[39:52] conception the moment of conception
[39:54] they've discovered a zinc spark that
[39:56] happens a light that happens and it
[39:59] begins at that moment of conception the
[40:01] zinc spark in inhabits the egg and
[40:04] strengthens the egg and at the moment of
[40:07] conception what does that mean that God
[40:09] said at that moment life
[40:12] began and there's scientific evidence to
[40:16] prove
[40:18] it why is that because we are fearfully
[40:20] and wonderfully made God's miraculous
[40:26] work and some of you are struggling this
[40:30] morning because of one of God's miracles
[40:32] in your
[40:33] life one of God's miracles in your life
[40:36] is that your optic nerve captures light
[40:39] captures colors captures that produces
[40:41] images and brings it back and some of
[40:43] you are hateful and upset at God because
[40:45] it means you have to look at
[40:49] me well
[40:51] listen we take for granted the
[40:54] miraculous working of our optic nerve
[40:59] that it takes in the light it produces
[41:01] it it focuses that image and it shows it
[41:03] to us in
[41:06] quickly
[41:07] miraculously you know when we don't you
[41:10] know when we don't give him thanks for
[41:12] it when it starts to affect us in a
[41:14] negative
[41:16] way eyes get weaker and we got to get
[41:19] glasses can't see as well as we used to
[41:22] we get night vision go try to drive at
[41:24] night and the headlights from other cars
[41:26] affect us and all that Stu stuff listen

[41:32] but my friend we ought to miraculous and
[41:34] recognize the miracle that God has given
[41:37] us through the eyes that we
[41:39] have what about the ears and the nerves
[41:42] that are in there that unfortunately for
[41:44] you you're listening to the sound of my
[41:45] voice this morning your ears capturing

[42:09] affected when we get a sinus infection
[42:12] and we have ringing in the ears listen

[45:59] moment considering that the miracles of
[46:03] god bringing you through hard
[46:06] moments had some hard moments in my life
[46:08] but God's been faithful and he's brought
[46:10] me through
[46:13] them there's some miracle of a Heavenly
[46:18] Home John 14 says let not your heart be
[46:20] troubled you believe in God believe also
[46:22] in me in my father's house or many
[46:24] mansions if it were not so I would have
[46:25] told you I go go to prepare a place for

[46:31] seen nor the ENT of the heart man what
[46:33] God has prepared for them that love him

[46:48] in
[46:50] heaven The Helpful moments of God that
[46:53] he's provided in your life
[46:57] don't
[46:58] miss the
[47:03] miracle problem
[47:06] is
[47:10] not what we have or what we don't have
[47:15] the problem is our
[47:20] eyes hey married couple listen to me the
[47:23] problem with your marriage is not your
[47:24] spouse
[47:27] the problem with your marriage is not
[47:28] your spouse but your
[47:31] eyes you are focusing on the 20%
[47:34] negative that's happening in your
[47:36] marriage and you're thinking oh I can't
[47:38] take it anymore I'm G to walk out on
[47:40] this I'm G to leave this family I'm
[47:42] going to leave this marriage because
[47:44] you're focused in looking at the wrong
[47:46] thing you're missing the 80% blessing
[47:49] and you're focused on the 20% negative
[47:51] so you think my marriage is a failure my
[47:53] marriage is in trouble well you're
[47:55] looking at the wrong stuff
[47:58] get your eyes checked get your eyes on
[48:01] the Lord hey the problem with your
[48:03] spiritual
[48:04] experience is not your church it's your
[48:09] eyes there's no perfect
[48:14] Church why because there's no perfect
[48:17] Pastor I'll be the first to admit it I'm
[48:19] not perfect I know that but guess what
[48:23] some people want to hold the pastor on a
[48:25] pedestal and on a high setting but news
[48:28] flash this morning there's no perfect
[48:30] Pew
[48:33] sitter nobody sitting in the pews is
[48:35] perfect
[48:36] either and you want the pastor to have
[48:39] Grace on
[48:41] you but you don't want give grace to the
[48:46] pastor why is that because we have unmet
[48:50] rights and unmet expectations we think
[48:53] of others but we don't hold ourselves
[48:55] accountable to God you know what your
[48:57] problem is it's your eyes you're not
[49:00] seeing what God's
[49:01] doing so what did he do when he saw
[49:06] it he turned
[49:10] back he turned back when you and I see
[49:13] the
[49:14] Miracles that God has done in our lives
[49:17] we ought to turn back and
[49:21] respond with
[49:23] gratitude for The
[49:25] Giver over
[49:28] gratitude for the
[49:30] gift we ought to respond with gratitude
[49:33] for The Giver over gratitude for the
[49:37] gift look in the verse if you would back
[49:40] in Luke
[49:51] 17 verse 15 and one of them when he saw
[49:54] that he was healed turned back and with
[49:56] a last loud voice glorified God fell
[50:01] down on his face at his feet giving him
[50:07] thanks yes he was glad about what he got
[50:11] but he was giving thanks to the one who
[50:13] gave it to
[50:15] him sometimes we need to remind
[50:17] ourselves of what God has given
[50:21] us eyes that see properly will change
[50:26] direction
[50:28] eyes that see properly will change
[50:32] direction one

[54:00] thank God for that child so he took it
[54:03] away you didn't thank God for those
[54:05] parents so he took them away didn't
[54:09] thank God for the possessions that he
[54:10] gave you for the things that he's given

[54:13] thank God for this
[54:17] week how many would walk out
