Jesus in the House: Doing the will of the Father.

In this timely and urgent message, Jesus in the Hour: Doing the Will of the Father, Pastor Anthony reminds us that we are living in a moment where obedience is not optional — it’s essential. When Jesus steps into this hour, He calls His people to align with the Father’s will, just as He did in His own darkest moment.

Jesus didn’t shrink back from the Father’s plan. In the Garden of Gethsemane, He prayed, “Not My will, but Yours be done.” That same surrender is what God is calling His people to today in our homes, our decisions, our parenting, and our daily walk.

This message will challenge you, strengthen you, and call you deeper into the heart of God. When Jesus is present in the hour, He brings clarity, conviction, and courage to do the Father’s will.

 This is the hour to obey.  
 This is the hour to surrender.  
 This is the hour to let Jesus lead.

Father God, Lord, we thank you so much for all the fathers out here today. And Lord, we just ask that you're you continue to bless them, challenge them, and teach them and guide them so that they can be the spiritual leaders in the homes that they are called to be. And Lord, we just ask your blessing upon the day. So Father, we ask your blessing upon all of those. And Lord, again, just bless the fathers. You know, don't let it meet too much today, Lord, but just have a good time just uh spending time with family, doing things that they enjoy. Father, we love you and thank you for all that you do in Jesus' name, amen. Alright, so doing the uh when we think about doing the will of the Father in our homes and in our lives, that's kind of gonna be the basis of our subject we're gonna be discussing today. And uh, we're gonna be looking at John chapter uh six, verse 38 through 40. And as we honor Father today, I want you to think about a minute. I mean, think about when you were growing up, you know, and some of you are maybe you're listening to this or still growing up, but think about when your dad told you to do something or taught you how to do something. You know, when you tried your best at doing whatever it was just to please him. You know, sometimes he gave you a task to do, and you're like, well, this is like lame times 10, and I'm not really interested in doing it. It wasn't pleasant, may even had you a little angry at times, but later you realized its purpose and it was wasn't so bad after all. You know, I remember this past uh weekend um when me and my one grandson Holden you'd change the uh evaporator core and stuff on my truck for the AC, and uh he was talking about uh this isn't so bad, this is actually kind of fun. You know, he was kind of overwhelmed with thinking about what all had to be done, but uh he actually learned quite a bit and enjoyed his time with it. So, you know, that's one of those types of things. You know, yeah, and I think of a good reference to is uh we all remember karate kid, you know, the wax on, wax off, you know, paint the fence up and down, paint the fence, you know. It was hard work, he was sore, but it you know, all that hard work paid off and you know ended up being gorgeous, and he learned karate, you know, by painting a fence. But you know, we've all been there. You know, I used to have a girl who used to get on my bus, uh, and at times she would get on the bus and she'd be kind of upset and I'd be like, What's going on? And she began to tell me how she lost her phone for a while, and I'd ask, Well, what'd you do? And she was like, Well, I was told to do something, and I bike talked, or I made excuses and didn't do what I was told, and yeah, and then she got in trouble. And you know, I think some of us can relate with that as well when we uh look back, and some may be experiencing that now, and you know, and some of us you know may be like, Well, I didn't really know my father, and he hasn't really been a part of my life, and that's okay. And it could be the time, or it could be the same if you know you've been with your mom or your grandparents, you know, you can still relate to those same uh thoughts and and feelings, you know, of being able to do stuff and being asked to do things hard. You know, we all have had parents teach us things or give us tasks that we liked and some that we didn't. You know, most of us didn't like cleaning our rooms, you know. I still don't, man. So, you know, but uh but it wasn't all you know bad, it was all about preparing us, you know, to be adults. It was about growing up and being responsible. You know, when I was growing up, I lived with my grandmother for you know, I think it was six, seven years. Not six, seven, uh sorry about that. But when I was growing up, you know, uh I lived with my grandmother, and you know, she would actually have me come in the kitchen and help me or and start teaching me how to fix food. And you know, she'd always say, one day you're gonna be a bachelor and you need to know how to do these things. And you know, my dad and my stepmom bought some property, and and I'm gonna tell you, I cleaned weeds and ditches and dug ditches and dug holes. I remember one time we were digging uh a hole for a power pole. My dad was at work, and my stepbrother and my stepmom were holding my feet because I was pretty little then, and uh, and I was down in this hole cleaning the dirt out, and they had to pull me back up. So, yeah, that was uh quite an experience. But you know, so there was been some dirty jobs along the way. But some of my favorite things to do was my dad had a junkyard, and uh, and so I used to love going up there, you know, because I could be a bull in a China shop and not get in trouble. I mean, we could just completely just strip you know, cars, you know. If you've ever seen that movie Ever Which Way But Loose, you know, Clyde strip the Cadillac, and I mean you just see parts flying. Well, that was me, you know. I could I could have some real fun and burn off some serious energy. Maybe that's what we need to do with some of our kids nowadays is take them to junkyards and give them some hammers and you know, just sawzalls and turn them loose. And then, you know, they strip them out fast, you know. But uh today I want to think about uh as we look through this episode is the things we would try to do to please our fathers. You know, I love getting those cards and pictures from my son Kenny and my daughter Alex, and I still get some you know stuff we message and stuff back all the time, and I love those. Uh but the ones that they made me when they were little were the ones that was really truly special. Yeah, I love the the father and son times with my son Kenny, you know, when we were off hunting or doing some off-roading, working on vehicles, and you know, I had those special daddy-daughter dates going to the movies. We used to go to the grocery store together, you know, and just do stuff. And uh it was such a great time. They were, you know, me and my daughter have always been super close, and we even still she calls herself a daddy's girl. So, you know, that's you know, it's those moments, you know, those those memories that you build with them. And when we think about when Jesus came to earth, his purpose was to do the will of God, the Father. And this is where our main scripture comes in, John again, John chapter 6, verse 38 through 40. John 6, 38, where Jesus says, For I have come down from heaven not to do my will, but to do the will of him who sent me. And what was the you know, the Father's will for Jesus? Well, Luke 19, I think, gives us that answer because Jesus said, It's like, for the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost, and that's pretty powerful. I mean, that was Jesus' role here. You know, Jesus pleased the Father by bringing salvation to the world through his death on the cross, and John 6, 39 and 40 explains it a little bit further. And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall not, or that I shall lose none of those he has given me, but raise them up on the last day. For my father's will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up on the last day. You know, so this is telling us that, you know, hey, look, I came uh uh to bring salvation to the world, and you do that through me. You know, Jesus goes through and he teaches everybody know the basics. You know, you know, no one can, you know, Jesus tells us in John 14, 6, I am the way, the truth, the life, and no man comes to the Father but by me. So he's what he's saying is, if you believe on me and I save you, you repent of your sins and and and all that, then you know, I'm gonna take you and raise you up, and you're gonna be with me in heaven forever and ever and ever and ever. And that's what Jesus is telling. That's the will of the Father. And so as we consider why Jesus came, we should also ask ourselves you know, what is the Father's will for well, our lives? And we won't, you know, we're not gonna be crucified for the sins of the world because we could never do that, but our purpose is still clear. We are called to do the will of the father. That's you know, our role, that's what we've been called to do. When we look at the title of the message, you know, Jesus in the house, you know, doing the will of the father. You know, this message it says, you know, we're calling all fathers. This means fathers that has already raised their children, fathers who have children still in the home, and fathers to be someday. Remember, moms, uh some you know, points of this message will speak to you as well, and even grandparents, because now we have grandparents raising you know kids. I remember my mentor, Pastor Mark, at a men's prayer breakfast one time, and he said, Look, he said, We're on a journey. We are to be men of prayer, we need to be godly men and love our wives as Christ loved the church, teaching our children the way God has told us to in his word. And when we look at society, we need to ask ourselves, who is teaching our children? Parents or society? Who is teaching our children? Something I want you all to think about. You know, there's a meme that I've seen on Facebook, and I love it. It says, Teach our children to love Jesus, or the uh or the world will teach them not to. And that is so powerful, and it's very true. There are so many things that grab the attention of young people to keep them so wrapped up that they do not have time for God. And sadly, excuse me, they have learned to, you know, learn this from us. We're so busy all the time. Our prayer life is non-existent. You know, I'm guilty of not praying as much as I should. There are times at night when I lay my head down, I'm so tired that you know I will start to pray and then fall asleep and not really finishing my prayer. And I don't know about you, but I'm really glad that God doesn't wake me up with some kind of Charlie horse or something going, hey, I was talking to you. You know, yeah. You know, that would not be fun. But uh, we really need to try to set the example for our children. You know, one of the things I see is parents will post on Facebook about Christ and then you know, then turn around and post something about getting drunk or you know, or cussing, or something crude. And in the book of James, it states that freshwater and salt water can't come from the same stream. We must be all in and work at getting the old selves out before you know you know Christ can really truly you know get set in. He should be top door, central, zenith in our lives. I mean, he should be the top dog. You know, Jesus tells us that we are a new creation, the old has passed away. So why do we keep going back to the old ways of the living? We need to stop that. You know, we should be in the world, but not of the world. You know, those who are saved are residents of heaven. You know, Romans 12, 8, one of my favorite verses, says, Do not be conform to the patterns of this world. You know, and that speaks volumes for us. We are not to act like we are like the world, we are to be Christ followers. You know, driving a school bus, I have got to see children from broken homes and had some who have had both parents, you know, uh, and some have phones and tablets to teach them about life. Uh, children can find anything online nowadays, and that shouldn't be what is teaching our children. I mean, now there are other educational stuff on there and things you can do to help, you know, as a tool, but you need to be sitting down with them and actually teaching them. You know, I really believe that we can get so wrapped up in chasing careers and and you know, running to this sport and that sport and the other thing, and then you're trying to do dinner, and then everything else gets pushed to the back burner. And you know, it may seem like we're we're really doing stuff for our kids, but if we're not taking time to spend time, just time with them, you know, it's just we need to get some some of that old-fashioned uh family time back together where everybody sits at the dinner table and eats, no phones, no TV. You know, hey, what happened with your day today? You know, all this stuff. I really think this would bring the family unit back together and work out so many problems because everybody's usually just keeping everything in, and I don't want to go down a rabbit trail, but we need to be teaching our children to speak to us, and you know, everybody wants to talk about a safe space. Well, talking to your parents, and it should be one of the safest things you can do. You know, my daughter used to talk to me about stuff growing up, and sometimes I'm going, Would you please talk to your mom about that and not me? But I always wanted to listen to my kids. You know, maybe I could have done better in some areas, you know, we all can probably say that, but I really think that that um is so vital is to be able to have our kids raise them in such a way that they can they can feel relaxed enough to come with us, you know, to us when they got a problem or they're having to deal with something, or you know, they did something that was really stupid, you know, knowing there's gonna be consequences, but at the same time knowing that they're you know they got somebody at home that they can talk to. Or, you know, you know, that resource to be able to teach them, you know, hey, look, you know, I'm not really sure how to deal with this, but you know, hey, we got the youth pastor, which is so vital, parents, you know, getting your kids involved in a Christ-centered Bible-believing church with a godly youth pastor that it acts as goofy as they do, but has their back. And that was me. Uh, you know, uh, and there are so many good ones out there. Just gotta get them plugged in. Anyway, here I am going down a rabbit trail. And so, parents, uh, again, you know, it's just we need to wake up and teach our children the way of God would have us to. You know, Proverbs 22, 6 says, start the children off on the way that they should go, and even when they are old, they will not turn from it. You know, but that raises a real question for us parents. How do we actually do that? How do we raise our children in the way they should go? Well, the uh simple answer is the simple but challenging answer. We must follow God's plan for how we live our lives and how we raise our children and our family, you know, and how we conduct our families. We cannot raise our children in Christ if we ourselves are not following Jesus. It's like you know, the instructions you hear on the airplane. In case of emergency, the oxygen mask will drop. Put your mask on first before assisting the child. Why do they say that? Because you can't help a child if you can't, you know, your you know, you can't help a child breathe yourself if you're already passing out. And the same way we can't lead our children spiritually if we're spiritually grasping for air. We must be walking with Jesus before we can lead our children to him. And that brings us to the next uh point, following God's plan, even when it's difficult. And sometimes, you know, believe it or not, the children can be difficult. When we talk about doing the will of the Father, when we look directly at you know to Jesus as our perfect example, Jesus was in the Garden of Gethsemane, moments away from being arrested, putting on trial, beaten and crucified, and he knew exactly what was coming. I mean, he knew it for years. He knew exactly what the plan was. I mean, he was there when he was created when that plan was created. He knew what was coming. He knew the pain and the suffering and the weight of the sin and the wrath of God that that he alone would have to carry. And in that moment, you know, that human side of him in Matthew 26, 39, tells us that Jesus went a little further into the garden, fell on his face, and prayed, Oh my Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from me. Nevertheless, get this, not as my will, but as your will. And Jesus was not wrestling with obedience. His heart was already fully surrendered to the Father. He wasn't trying to escape demission, he wasn't looking for a way out, he was acknowledging the reality of what was about to endure, and you know, saying, Look, if there's another way, let's do that. But if not, then hey, let's keep moving forward. He immediately submitted himself to the Father's plan. You know, now Jesus could have stopped any of this at any moment. He could have called down you know 12 legions of angels and it could have walked away, but he didn't. His desire was to please the father and complete the work he was sent to do, and he loved all of us that much. This is the model of obedience, and we are called to follow a willingness, you know, a willingness to say, Father, not my will, but yours be done, even when the path ahead is difficult. Parents, this is where the example of Jesus speaks directly into our homes. Sometimes doing the will of the Father in our heart in our families, it's not easy. Sometimes it requires courage, sometimes it requires decisions that break our hearts, and sometimes it means stepping in when our children are heading towards danger, toward danger. I mean, think about this past week. We saw a powerful example of this in our own country. A mother realized that her son was moving towards something very destructive, something that could have harmed so many people. And I'm talking about it at the US C fight at the White House. Don't care what your politics are. But she had to make one of the hardest decisions a parent could ever make. She stepped in and spoke up and she acted out of not out of anger or politics, but out of love. And by doing that, she saved her son's life. I mean he's going to spend years and years and years in prison, but he's alive. But she also saved the lives of you know, probably could have been thousands of people. That's the kind of godly courage and a kind of encouraging you know godly parenting you know it requires. That is the kind of courage godly parenting you know sometimes requires. Following God's plan means being willing to protect our children even when they don't understand even if they don't like it. Yeah, that's the thing. I think sometimes and I used to have a parent in my youth group that wanted to try to be her children's BFFs. No. We need to be their parents first. I mean have fun, be goofy and yeah be friends, um, you know, do that. But when it comes time, but when it comes to their upbringing, we've got to be their parents first. We've got to set boundaries, even when they push back and intervene early when we see danger coming. I mean being involved. And nowadays, take that phone and look at what they're looking at. Who cares if they don't like it? You're paying the bill. Yeah, I'm going down another rabbit trail. But I, you know, set boundaries. It means choosing obedience to God over temporary approval of our kids. And just like the father's plan, you know, for Jesus was painful but perfect. God's plan for our families may not always feel easy, but it's always good. Parents, our obedience today may be the very thing that God uses to rescue your child tomorrow. God doesn't call us to be perfect parents, there's no such thing. However, God does call us to be godly parents. You be godly parents in an ungodly world. Because I mean, we see it at every angle. Being godly parents in an ungodly world means recognizing that our children need more uh than our strength, our wisdom, and our resources. They need Jesus. One of the most powerful examples of this is found in Mark chapter 5. Mark chapter 5, when Jarius, a synagogue ruler, came to Jesus because his 12-year-old daughter was dying. Jesus was a man, or Jarius was a man of authority, a leader in the community, someone who used was used to giving orders and having people to respond at a snap of a finger to get after it. But on that day, none of his influence, none of his status, none of his connections, I mean, nothing could help his child. He reached a moment where he was completely helpless, except for one thing. He heard about this guy named Jesus. He's like, if I could just bring Jesus to my daughter, everything would be fine. And scripture says he fell at Jesus' feet and pleaded earnestly with him. This was a desperate father doing the greatest act of parenting he had ever done. And when Jesus entered that home, everything changed. That family was never the same again. This is what godly parenting looks like. It's not being perfect, it's not having all the answers, it's not been in, you know, being strong enough to fix everything, but about being humble enough to bring Jesus into the situation. You know, I remember it wasn't too long after we were back in the church. I don't remember something, my son was upset about something, and he's like, Man, we were having way more fun before we were in church. And you know, we were going to do this and that on the weekends, and I'm like, well, son, this is who we are. I said, We're we're following Christ. You know, I had to set that example. You know, we are going to uh be in church, we're going to uh you know uh serve him with all of our being. That's I mean, and this and you know, as Joshua 24 tells us, for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. You know, but you have those times with your kids. You know, they're going to rebel, they're gonna have those moments where they don't want to follow what's going on. Now, think about a pastor in Kentucky, Kyle Idleman, uh huge fan. Uh well, huge he wrote a book called Not a Fan that really, I mean, was just I mean, off the chart. I, you know, probably one. I don't like to read books, but that one I couldn't put down. It was fantastic. But he shared a story uh once of a father who uh they were discussing some things, and he was telling him about his daughter and how she had walked away from her faith. And the father said, you know, we raised her her whole life in church, but never in Christ. And that statement is a reminder that our kids don't just need church attendance, they need a living relationship with Jesus. You know, they need to see him in us, they need to see us pray, they need to see us repent, forgive, and trust God. They need to see faith lived out in the home and not just talked about, you know, on Sundays. You know, I've seen this in my own life because it was my daughter who essentially, you know, helped bring her family back into God's you know presence and into his church. You know, God used us or used her to pull us back into his house, and that decision changed the direction of my life forever. I mean, who would have thought that my daughter meeting a friend who went to FCA would meet Pastor Mark and Andrew Jackson Middle School, who met there on Sunday mornings in a church called Genesis Fellowship, whoever thought to me in a thousand years that that would circle into pulling Anthony Lucas and his family into church, a Genesis Fellowship in Andrew Jackson Middle School, and then you know, just a couple years later, he's going into ministry, and now here we are in 2026, and you know, nothing looks like the path that I originally set out on as being a truck driver. When the kids are gone, me and my wife are gonna hit the road doing a heavy haul, and that's just gonna I want to serve Jesus in the pulpit, in the church, in the you know, service, and on the podcast, and you know, my whole life is built because I want to please the father. That leading me from a lost truck driver to where I am today is a is a story that I love to tell, and you know, I wouldn't change it for the world. But that's what happens when Jesus enters a home. Things change, hearts change, families change. Godly parents don't raise perfect kids, they don't have perfect homes, and they do everything, but they do everything that they can to bring Jesus to the center of their family. Because when Jesus is in the house, hope is in the house. When Jesus is in the house, healing is in the house. And when Jesus is in the house, the family is never the same again. You know, as we uh kind of wrap this up today, I want every parent, every grandparent, every guardian, every future parent that's listening to hear this clearly. You are not alone in his calling. God never asked you to be perfect. He asked you to be faithful, he asked you to walk with him and trust him and bring Jesus into your home, just like Jarius did. And when God and when you do that, God does what only he can do. He steps into your family, steps into your situation, he steps into places where you feel over weak, overwhelmed, or unsure, and he brings strength and wisdom and peace. Now, Dad's let me speak directly to you for a moment. You matter more than you know, your presence matters, your prayers matters, your leadership matters. You don't have to be perfect, you don't have to be a perfect father who makes you know to make a difference. You just have to be present, praying, Christ following Father. God delights in using ordinary dads to do extraordinary things in their children's lives. So be encouraged today. God sees you, God honors your effort, God will use you in ways that you may not even realize yet. You may feel like you've made some mistakes, and trust me, we all have, and I can guarantee I can raise my hand and tell you there there are many. You know, I told my children, or we were talking last Thanksgiving with my son-in-law, and we were all at our chit-chatting. I was talking to my grandsons, and you know, we were talking about raising kids and stuff, and I'm like, look, so there were things that my dad, you know, the way they raised us that I didn't like, and I swore I never would do that with my kids. I said, and I'm sure there's things that your dad feels the same way about and raising you all. I said, and you all will feel the same way when you get kids. There's gonna be things that we adopt that our parents did and and do, and there's gonna be things that we did differently, and and that's okay. Again, you know, you may feel like you've made mistakes. Again, we all have. And you may feel like you didn't uh start early enough. Well, start today. You may feel like your kids are gone, you know, or too far gone. They're not. You know, the God we serve is so powerful, He can, you know, He can bring them back around. The same Jesus who walked into Jarius's house and changed everything is the same Jesus who can walk into your home today. He's still he's still restoring families, he's still drawing you know uh prodigals, he's still healing hearts, he's still answering prayers, and he is still working in ways that you cannot see. And some of you are like Jarius, you have done everything you know to do, and now you are bringing Jesus into the situation. Some of you are like you know, that father Kyle Idleman talked about, realizing it's time to move your family from being in church to being in Christ, and that doesn't mean stop going to church, just wait for that series, just coming out. We're gonna be talking about why we need to be in church a lot about it. I'm really excited for this series, too. And some of you are like me, God used your child to bring you back to him, and it changed the direction of your entire life. Wherever you are today, take heart. God is with you, God is for you, God is working in your family, even right now, and maybe that's the purpose of this message. And when Jesus is in the house, hope is in the house, and when Jesus is in the house, healing is in the house. I know this is repetitive, but I need you to understand it and get it. And when Jesus is in the house, the story is not over. So keep praying, keep leading, keep moving, keep following the Father's will, because your obedience today is planting the seeds that will grow a harvest tomorrow. Your family's story is still being written, and the author is still faithful. Let's pray together. Father God, Lord, again, we come to you and just thank you for this message. Father, you know, thank you for being our father. And that's something tells too that it's you know, I didn't mention here, but something that needs to be mentioned now. That if you're like, you know what, I've never had a dad, well, you got one in heaven, one will never turn his back, never be too busy to spend time with you. Um you have a heavenly father who wants to spend time with you every day. He wants to hear from you every day, he wants to speak to you every day. And so if you do not know Christ, hey Lord, reach out and touch him, pull to heart strings, show them, let them feel your presence. Father, just this love one today, and Father, be with those today that have lost your parents recently. Maybe they've lost their dad. Let them feel your presence in a way that they've never felt today. Some comfort. Put a smile on their face, wipe the tears. But Lord, also just continue to be with us that are still here. Lord, challenge us, teach us, comfort us, and guide us. Lord, we love you in Jesus' name. Amen.
