I was preaching a sermon one Sunday and uh It was about, it was a parable And it was talking about the uh, the disciples and Jesus When they were going through a corn field And they began to pick the corn And the Pharisees, the legalistics of the day, they came And they were chastising them that 'Why are you doing this on the Sabbath?' They had this whole discourse and dialog between the two of them Jesus was saying, 'Listen, do you, do you not remember that you You, yourself aren't even worthy You guys break unleavened bread on, on the Sabbath And you k** the sacrifice, you clean the sacrifice' They have a need and it's my job and my responsibility To meet their need and I'm at their need I trump the synagogue, I trump the Sabbath I'm lowered of your life, I'm lowered of everything that is you I'm lowered of this, this day, recognize who you're talking to But in the course of the whole thing what I realize is that The dialog was between the Pharisees or the religious leaders of the day Was between the dignitaries, the officials of the Church and Jesus The disciples never uttered a word He literally started embodying his permanent position in our lives Because he stepped in between the law and the people He says, 'No, I'm Grace and because of Me They don't have to defend themselves to you' 'I'll do all the talking, My blood will speak through all of eternity I have justified them, even in their wrong, I know that they are wrong I know that they make mistakes, I know that they are not perfect I know that they do things that are not pleasing' 'But even in their wrong, My blood will speak on their behalf And I will just', somebody should have shouted right there Because He didn't k** you for all the sinful acts that you committed But he justified you God bless me with this song, it simply speaks the life of that message And I'm just excited to be able to share it with you Hey, justified me, glorified me Paid my ransom and I've been redeemed by his blood Go to Calvary, I've been made free Despite my enemy, I thank God, I'm justified Paid a price for my life And all that was wrong, His love made it right Now what greater sign can any man show? That know with his own blood He made me whole He justified me, glorified me Paid my ransom and I've been redeemed by his blood Go to calvary, I've been made free Despite my enemy, I thank God, I'm justified If my sins had their way I never would have made it With a debt I just couldn't afford to pay, He came and saved me When the enemy said that I couldn't, God said go ahead Because you're covered by me awesome, awesome powerful blood Though I, I should've been dead and never kept alive God's grace and his mercy were on every side When it looks like I can't, God says I can And he won't let me fall in the enemy's hand Oh, I'm just glad to know that God saved me His grace and his mercy They watched over me all night long If it had not been, if it had not been If it had not been, if it had not been If it had not been for the lord that was on my side Hey, listen I got some testimonies listen Just like Nineveh that was headed for destruction God stepped in and he said (Not guilt) You gonna live and you won't see the day of destruction (Oh oh oh) Just like Daniel who was condemned to the lion's den, God said (Not guilt) You're gonna live (You're gonna live, yeah) Just like David who was dearly beloved in spite of God said (Not guilt) Yeah Hey (Let's talk about you) If you be honest with yourself tonight If it hadn't been for the grace of God You would've been, you could've been Yeah, listen, hey To the liar (Not guilt) To the cheater (Not guilt) To the deceiver (Not guilt) Even to the believer (Not guilt) There is their point no condemnation to them (Not guilt) That are in Christ Jesus (Not guilt) Yeah, yeah (Not guilt) Hey Some of y'all got it twisted, listen (Not guilt) If it hadn't been for God (God did it) You wouldn't have made it Hey, don't get confused about who kept you Hey (God did it) When the enemy said that I couldn't, God did it (God did it) When my haters said that I wouldn't, God did it (God did it) Hey, I thought we'd never get out of the poor house but (God did it) I thought we'd never see the White House but I'm claiming it (God did it) Hey and if you be honest He's been over your house (God did it) Every grateful heart just bless his name (God did it) Who delivered you?
