God’s Executive Orders - 1st 100 Days

God help us today as we open again your Word and we come as beggars needing bread.

We want to actually hear your Word And we want to not only hear it for ourselves, but for others.

We don't want to be just selfish with private devotions.

So I entitled today's message, hearing and heeding God's executive orders.

Of course it was informed by the executive orders that our president is handing down, I don't know, 10, 15 a day.

You now signed in the last 3 weeks more executive directives and orders if you add in the proclamations, quote proclamation, memoranda and letters than any other president in history in that amount of time.

So you're seeing something that's making history because it's actually a precedent in history.

What message is being sent by the president with all of these executive orders, memoranda, and letters?

The president is saying to you and to me, I'm doing something.

I'm delivering on the promises that I've made to various people during the campaign, and I'm gonna follow through.

And are people reacting to the president's words?

Oh yes, They're fueling both the liberal media and the conservative media and they're all talking about these orders.

In our scripture reading today though, we discovered in Psalm 33, look at it again, starting in verse 6, by the word of the Lord the heavens were made and the host of them that was an executive order can you say amen he gathers the waters of sea together as a heap he lays up this deep and storehouses and then our scripture reading verse 8 Psalm 33 verse 8 let all the earth fear the Lord, let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him, for He spoke and it was done.

These executive orders are completely unlike the President's executive orders in this.

In fact, is that they will in fact happen.

When he says something, it actually happens.

I want to suggest today that as important and interesting as the president's words are of our nation and in fact we should listen to them it says in Timothy that we're supposed to pray for our leaders it says in Romans chapter 13 that they actually have a God-ordained authority and we need to listen to them so we need to be aware of them but I want to suggest that instead of just focusing on those we must focus on not only those but on the executive orders of the King of the Universe Because we need to follow the president's executive orders and laws only as they're in keeping with God's law and his executive orders.

Which means we have to have a comprehensive awareness of both.

Which only comes when we're listening to Scripture.

What only comes when we're heeding Scripture, what only comes when we're hearing Scripture.

So you know, did you know that God actually had executive orders that dealt with climate change?

I mean what they are, with sexuality, with marriage, with protecting the lives of the innocent, with justice, with race, with the economy, every single thing that the president is issuing executive orders on, God has already issued executive orders.

Do you know what the president's orders are?

And what are you going to do when there is a difference?

Now the Constitution of the United States of America does not mandate that a president or a vice president or any person taking the oath of office put their hand on the Bible.

And yet this is exactly what presidents in America have done since the very founding of this nation.

And this last election was or inauguration was no exception.

But I might say that I believe that over time, the putting of the hand on the Bible, I think it kind of indicates, what I'm doing is the same thing God would do.

I mean, I think that's sending that message.

And so I'm putting my hand there because my orders and the way I want to rule the nation I think are in keeping with what God says in his Word.

I swear to hell the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help me God and I put my hand on the Bible.

But I think you've got to ask yourself the question, are the executive orders of the politician, or whoever it is, are they actually in keeping with God's executive orders?

He said, let there be light and let there be dark.

We're concerned one's getting polluted, right?

Plants and animals, or plants and land on day 3.

There's still the Sun, the moon, the stars, fish and fowl.

How many how many of you realize He formed you?

And He also wants to fill you in a certain way.

He has executive orders in Genesis 1 about about sex.

He doesn't say there should be 434 genders, like Kender says.

1 is a male, just in case you didn't realize this, the other is a female.

When I go to buildings today, they're so nervous about this that they don't even have those signs up on the bathrooms anymore.

I think it means change change So male and female 2 sexes and sex is supposed to happen between Biological sex between these 2 biological folks a male and a female once God brings them together in marriage.

And it also tells you what diet is the best.

How many of you are familiar with these executive orders?

This is in a perfect world, not an imperfect world.

You're supposed to work in a garden, and you're supposed to have dominion over the creatures.

You're supposed to care about the climate.

You're supposed to take care of it yourself.

And then by the way, the only reason we're here today is because of another executive order And that is the Sabbath, right?

And the Sabbath, after everything was formed, and then it was filled, then came the Sabbath day.

Where he says, look, everything that was formed and everything that was filled come together, come together in a time of covenantial joy and celebration of God's executive orders.

Look at the person next to you if it's appropriate and say I'm so thankful for God's executive orders.
