Shalom and welcome to On Wings Of Truth

I'm your host William McDonald and I

want to tell you how pleased I am that

you're joining me for this telecast and

this program

being viewed on prime time TV we're

going to begin presenting to you a

series of teachings using the hebraic

perspective and this is the very first

of our programs that we are broadcasting

we're going to look at

subjects ranging from word themes all

the way into looking at various concepts

of the Bible based upon the Old

Testament we may do a teaching from The

Book of Genesis or we may do teachings

in the future dealing with single books

like the Book of Malachi but we're going

to have an exciting time what I want to

do today is invite you to going at your

Bibles and be prepared to follow along

with me in reading the text and also

have your pen and pencils available so

that you can take notes we're going to

begin to share with you a lot of

information on these programs today's

program is titled overcoming worry worry

is a very uh interesting subject that

tends to be downplayed in our society

too much and because of that too many of gods

gods

Believers God's people are being

affected in such ways that they are not

even aware that worry what worry is

doing in their lives and so we're going

to start off this series of teaching

we'll probably do four or maybe four so

teachings on this particular subject

until we get it completed

on the subject of worry we will be using

the Hebrew perspective that is using

Concepts and words I won't be reading

necessarily from the Hebrew Bible word

for word or

lecturing in Hebrew I will be using

Concepts and terms that are so familiar

with us today and uh most of the time we

think we understand what these words

mean but we really don't and we're going

to see just how that bear out in the the

program as we go on well if you've got

your Bibles available with you and your

pads and principle pencils are and ready

to take notes we're going to start out

teachings with the subject I want to

read a little uh statement concerning a

worry uh from this little book that we

have put together

on the subject of worry

and let's see if I can find exactly

says

today there is a subtle unseen Force

sweeping across this country and the world

world

enslaving countless numbers of people

from all walks of life this force is so subtle

subtle

that I have met individuals who believe

they were born

with it as part of their behavior pattern

pattern

still others are lured into his power

without knowing

that this force is about

to take control

over their lives

it is clear that once this Force has

gained acceptance into the victim's heart

heart

the force has now

became master

of that life

the force I am speaking of as I said is

called worry

now the Bible has a lot to say about

worry even though in some cases we don't

see the text referring to the subject of

worry but in many times in the

scriptures we have the word use

and sometimes our English translation

will fail to translate the correct

Hebrew word for worry for instance in

Matthew chapter

25 or excuse me Matthew chapter 6 verse

25 the text Begins by reading the King

James version says therefore I say unto

you take no thought for your life what

you shall eat or what you shall drink

nor for your body what you shall put on

is not life more than meat and the body

more than Remnant now in this verse in

the King James text it says therefore I

say unto you take no thought

and most of the time thought is not

really seen

with connection to the concept of worry

but if you have a NIV version

translation I have the parallel Bible

that I'm working with right here today

both to King James and the NIV the NIV

text says therefore I tell you do not

worry about your life so here's the word

worry being being mentioned in the text

and as I said worry in the opening of

the text is a subtle spiritual Force

worry has been

slipping up in our society or sneaking

up in our society over the last 30 years

and it has become a dominant part in the

way we speak

we can't use complete sentences without

somehow another telling someone not to

worry or to worry about something

and we don't realize we as Believers in

the Lord Jesus our lord and savior

we should be guiding ourselves from

worry completely and we're going to go

into a lot of material talking about

opens the door

to anxiety

which opens the door

to fear which ultimately begins to

produce depression

and as we go along in this teaching on

the subject overcoming worry we're going

to establish a lot of those points as

well but let me go back to the text that

we were reading in Matthew chapter 6.

uh verse 25 I'll start from the

beginning again therefore King James

version therefore

I say unto you take no thought for your life

life

what you shall eat nor what you shall drink

drink

uh what

what

you shall put on is not

life more than meat and the body more

than Remnant behold the fowls of the air

for they so not neither do they reap nor

gather into bonds yet your heavenly

father feeds them

are you not much better

than they

which of You by taking thought or worrying

worrying

can add one cubit unto his statues

and why take ye thought of why worry for

Remnant consider the lilies of the field

how they grow they tall not neither do

they spin

and yet I say unto you that even Solomon

in all his glory was not arrayed like

one of these verse 30. wherefore God if

God so clothed the grass of the field

which today Hills and tomorrow is cast

into the oven shall he not much more

clothe you

O ye of little faith

therefore take no thought or therefore

do not worry seeing what shall we eat or

what shall we drink or where shall we be

closed verse 32 for after all these

things do the Gentiles seek

for your heavenly father

knoweth that you have need of all these things

things

but seek ye first the kingdom of God and

its or his righteousness and all these

things shall be added unto you these are

some very powerful verses

and what we're going to do in the uh

series of teachings on overcoming worry

is go back and begin to break down these

texts and and establish some principles

for understanding uh not just the

operation of worry but how you can begin

to move away from this element of worry

and take complete control over it in

your own life and not have it to be uh

maneuvered by its spiritual forces when

it begins to uh rear its ugly head in

your in your life now we said this that

worry is a spiritual Force

uh turn in your Bibles with me

to the book of uh Colossians

the book of Colossians is a uh very

interesting text and it has some

interesting information in here regarding

regarding

the concept of

worry and its operation

Colossians chapter 1

and I want to begin reading with uh

let's see verse

9. verse 9 of Colossians chapter one

King James version again says for this

cause we also since

the day we heard it do not cease to pray

for you

and to desire that you might be filled

with knowledge

of of his will in all spiritual

uh in all wisdom and spiritual understanding

understanding

that you might walk worthy of the Lord

unto all patience being fruitful in

every good work

and increasing in the knowledge of God strengthen

strengthen

with all might according to his glorious

power unto all patience and

long-suffering with joyfulness giving

thanks unto the father

which have made us meet to be partakers

of the inheritance of the Saints in light

light

verse 13. who have delivered us from the

power of Darkness very important verses

who have delivered us from the power of

darkness and have translated us into the

kingdom of his dear son in whom we have

Redemption through his blood even the forgiveness

forgiveness

of sins verse 15. who is the image of

the invisible God note this

who is the image of the invisible God

the firstborn of every creature verse 16

it says for by him who is him God for by

God were all things created

that are in heaven and that are in Earth

visible and invisible whether they be

Thrones or dominions or principalities

or Powers all things were created

by him and for him

and he is he is before all things and by

him all things consist now you hear that

the word in verse 18 or excuse me in

verse 16 it says for by God were all

things created

that are in heaven and that are in Earth

now the reason I come back came to these

scriptures because

when we think about this concept worry

where does it come from

if it's just a a word that we Loosely

say in reference to I don't worry and

you don't worry or don't worry about

this if it's just an insignificant word then

then

how does it begin to

appear in our lives and begin to show

some type of power that is controlling

us in in our Behavior patterns of what

we do

but here the scripture says that all

things were created by God note that all

things were created by God I'm saying

that's that worry is a spiritual Force

a spiritual force and it was created

oddly enough by God

now that's going to be a little bit hard

for some of you to take

I want to also clarify and say to you

I'm going to be saying some things to

you in the programs that you've probably

never heard before

and that's because of my background in

my area of studies I'm looking at the

Bible from a Jewish perspective I'm

trying to understand what does the

rabbis and the sages of old how did they

understand this biblical text and then

how would they have understood these

principles as they were being given in

the early centuries so long ago and in

learning that information I spent many

years going back and studying with

Jewish Scholars to understand their

methodology to understand their mindset

and to extract from them principles that

I can begin to as a believer in Yeshua

hamashiach Jesus the Messiah

as I can learn how to begin

to live this life and walk in a more uh

Victorious stage you see I believe that

all of us want to begin to see the

Dynamics of God's kingdom manifest in

our lives and to the most part

we don't see that happening

and the reason we don't see it happening

is simple we're not doing Bible things

Bible ways and I believe that uh when we

get back to doing Bible things Bible

ways you're going to begin to see the

simple principles of Kingdom work in

your life you're being spoken to and

taught so many different concepts and so

many different uh versions of what the

text is saying so I'm going to begin to

present to you some things that's going

to be new to you some of you if you're

if you know Hebrew may be familiar with

some of the concept if you do not you

may not so I asked you to follow along

with me because what I'm going to do is

tie knots and bring things into a whole

Jewish concepts are like uh weaving

cloth together one concept is woven to

another concept that is woven to another

concept and when we get through weaving

all of these Concepts together we have a

beautiful hole that begins to formulate

the picture of who God is and the

picture to who you should be as well so hope

hope

the first thing that I said was God

created worry

and according to the scripture here in

Colossians chapter 1 verse 16 for by him

were all things created note that again

for by God were all things created that

are in heaven and that are in Earth visible

visible

and invisible whether they be Dominion

or powers or principalities or powers

all things were created by Him and for

him now I want you to see something in

this scripture because you see I didn't

make this up I didn't determine and put

these verses in here I'm only giving you

what the text is saying and now what

we're going to do is put together the

concepts that that thread together

understandings in a Jewish mentality

that these individuals have known for

hundreds of years that we Christians are

just beginning to walk over into and get

the light in their understanding of

because they understand the concepts of

worry or the concepts of

in how it relates to them in their lives

as well so where do we begin

this teaching act in order to understand

the concept of worry and its operation

we just established that it is a unseen

spiritual Force just as uh we read in

colossian that it is an invisible force

because you can't see worry

it's just somehow another it begins to

attach itself to your life in some form

or another or how in the world does it

begin to gain access within your being

so when we get through with this program

these series of teaching you're going to

have a complete understanding of its

operation and how it gained access into

your spirit into your mind into your

thinking process so before the program

in we're going to share a little bit

more with you and build upon this

principle by going to the Book of Genesis

Genesis

Book of Genesis and I want to look at

chapter four in Genesis Genesis chapter

4 we have a beautiful story here the

Cain and Abel

and in verse

6 the text says then the Lord said to

Cain why are you angry why is your face downcast

downcast

if you do what is right will you not be accepted

accepted

but if you do not do what is right

the text says sin crouches at your door

it's desire

to have you

but you must Master it

now these versions have always been

there and I read from the NIV

but we don't know what to do with them

and we really don't know how to

interpret it let's look at the story a

Little Closer

we have

two individuals who were born

from the birth or born sons of Adam and

Kava and Eve

Network Kane and then Abel

and then they were to bring offerings

unto the Lord Abel

Abel

offering was accepted Cain's offering

was not

and we don't have any indication why

Kane's offering was not

accepted or what type of offering it was

supposed to have been I've heard a lot

of theories about what offering it was

it was the meat of the ground or all

types of we don't have any evidence of

that but we do know

is God spoke to Cain God spoke to Abel

just as he spoke to Adam

and when he told Adam in the garden the

things that he spoken to him he spoke to

Cain and he spoke to Abel and he gave

them instructions as to what was desired

of them Abel

Abel

did what God asked of him

Cain did not

how do we know that well in this

scripture it says why are you angry why

is your face downcast if you do what is

right the implications here is something

has been told to him that was supposed

to have been done he did not do it and

because he did not do it

here God is instructing him that he

needed to do what was right so

I can remember many years ago in my own

life as I was raising my children who we

have my wife and I have four my youngest

son uh

came into my study one uh one afternoon

and as he was approaching he

was standing I turned and looked and he

was standing at the entrance of the door

and when I saw his face he had what is

called here a downcast face

the King James version says his

continence Has Fallen

and immediately because I had been

studying these texts I knew something

was wrong

he approached me and handed me a sheet

of paper that on the paper as I read it

it had information that he was failing

several of his classes and they were

trying to get us to get him into study

so that he didn't ultimately get a

report card that was bad

my son knew

that he had done wrong because his

mother and I had told him countless

numbers of time what he was supposed to

have been doing in so far as studying

but instead of studying and doing what

was right he did what he desired to do

and in the process of doing that now he

had to come and present this paper to me

with a downcast face

now something much more Dynamic is going

on here

because you see I understood the

operation of what was happening in my

son's life only because I began to study

this concept of worry many years ago to

understand how does worry gain access

Into the Heart of an individual

and when I began to realize he gains

access through words spoken to our

hearts into our minds or to our spirits

and you see just as God told Cain what

was required of him

the minute that God wasn't around the

ugly one

came and spoke to Cain and said to him

you don't have to give an offering of

that sort got to be happy if you give

unto him an offering of this sword

in other words Cain took fault Jesus

says don't take thought do not worry

Cain took the thought of the ugly one

speaking to his mind and when he took

the thought Disobedience entered in and

now Cain is outside of the will of God

and you see no doubt the same situation

was playing its way through in this in

in the life of my son

because my son had been told what he

needed to do and no doubt the enemy the

ugly one or we could say worry came and

spoke to his mind and told him well you

know you can go out and throw the

football a little longer you can play a

little a little bit longer you can play

the games of Nintendo you can do you can

and when it came time to study he put

little effort into it and the result of

that was he didn't get the approval that

he desired or that we desired him to get

well you see in the texts here in

Genesis it's interesting my son had me

to contend with Cain on the other hand

he had God

let's look at this text a little bit a

little bit as we conclude the program it says

says

if you do what is right

will you not be accepted now I want to

set as a principle

for overcoming worry right now the first

principle that I want you to jot down

and to keep in your heart

is you always have to do what is right

now why is that important because God is

setting a principle that will live out

through the lives of his creators of his

Creations throughout all of eternity and

that principle is simple always do what

is right

if you do what is right the text says

you're going to be accepted but if you

don't do what is right

the text says sin crouches at your door

now When sin crouches at your door its

desire is to have you but you must

Master it now that that gets kind of

technical because because there are some

things being stated in there that can be

very difficult to understand and as we

get ready to go over into our next

program we're going to begin to talk

with you a little bit more about how can

sin Crouch at your door because I want

you to think about this you see sin is a

result of an action taken

not something that that can just be

there you have to actually do something

in order for sin to be produced in your

life well

I hope you've gotten a lot out of this

teaching as we've said just simply a

foundation for what we're going to be

talking about in reference to overcoming

worry uh be prepared to come back with

us next week as we present the second

part to this teaching and begin to look

at the principles for overcoming worry

and I believe that once you understand

these things you will be able to push

worry out of your life as well shalom
