1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,000 It's time for the Champions in Christ broadcast with Rhonda Harrison on 1017, Bay FM. 2 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:13,460 Good morning and welcome to Champions in Christ. 3 00:00:13,460 --> 00:00:15,840 Thank you for listening this morning. 4 00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:17,800 Hope you all are having a blessed day. 5 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:22,840 This is the day the Lord has made and we will rejoice and be glad in it. 6 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:23,840 Hallelujah. 7 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:24,840 Hallelujah. 8 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:29,280 You know, today we're going to talk a little bit in Proverbs and we're going to go there 9 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:31,320 and talk about the heart. 10 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:35,680 You know, the heart is the main thing. 11 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:40,520 I mean, you know, when someone tells you, make sure you focus on the main thing, keep 12 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:42,320 the main thing, the main thing. 13 00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:47,280 Well, in God's world, the main thing is all about the heart. 14 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:56,520 You know, our physical body is one thing and our mind is another, but our heart, you know, 15 00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:01,320 let's go to Proverbs and I'll show you what I mean because, you know, what's in your heart 16 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:05,080 is what's going to be, what comes out of your mouth. 17 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,840 And so we want to make sure that we keep our heart. 18 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:10,440 What does that mean? 19 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,400 Protect what goes in and what comes out. 20 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:21,160 And so let's go to Proverbs four and we're going to start in verse 20 and it goes like 21 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:22,160 this. 22 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:27,360 It says, my child, pay attention to what I say. 23 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,200 Listen carefully to my words. 24 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:30,760 Don't lose sight of them. 25 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:36,560 Let them penetrate deep into your heart for they bring life to those who find them in 26 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,200 healing to their whole body. 27 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:45,800 23 says, guard your heart above all else for it determines the course of your life. 28 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,040 Wow, that's powerful. 29 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,600 It determines the course of your mouth. 30 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:52,680 Why is, I mean the course of your life. 31 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,000 Why is that? 32 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,720 Because out of your, out of your heart, the abundance of your heart, your mouth speaks 33 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,300 is what the word of God says. 34 00:02:01,300 --> 00:02:03,200 And so we want to continue. 35 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:10,020 It says in verse 24, avoid all perverse talk and stay away from corrupt speech. 36 00:02:10,020 --> 00:02:13,760 Look straight ahead and fix your eyes on what lies before you. 37 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,640 You know, there's another area of scripture and it says, set your affections on things 38 00:02:17,640 --> 00:02:20,760 above not on things on the earth. 39 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:21,760 Why? 40 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:22,960 We want to keep our eyes on Jesus. 41 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:29,160 We want to keep our thoughts on his plan, his purpose, his focus, um, because he knows 42 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:30,560 the best plan for us. 43 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,480 He knows the way we should go. 44 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:39,160 And if we listen to him, we'll, we, we will not have a better life than listening to him 45 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:45,320 because he has the perfect plan for you and the perfect plan for me. 46 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,840 And it's all about seeking him diving into this word. 47 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:53,840 You know, meditating is chewing on the word, thinking about the word, you know, think about 48 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,640 it when you wake up, think about it when you go to bed. 49 00:02:56,640 --> 00:03:01,800 You know, there's a scripture that says that the things that we need to think on are things 50 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:06,400 that are good and pure and holy and righteous and virtuous. 51 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:11,040 If there'd be any praise, if there'd be any virtue, think on these things, you know, we've 52 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:17,920 got to think on things that are good in this world where the media and all the sources 53 00:03:17,920 --> 00:03:21,760 of information that come in, not all of them are positive. 54 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,520 Not all of them speak of goodness. 55 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:25,520 Not all of them. 56 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,700 It's not that we don't want to be aware of what's going on, but I know I can just look 57 00:03:29,700 --> 00:03:33,480 at the headlines and basically know what the media is trying to feed us. 58 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,440 But, but I like to look into God's word. 59 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:37,440 Why? 60 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,880 Because God's word, he knows it all. 61 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:41,360 He knows it all. 62 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,040 He is king of kings and he is Lord of lords. 63 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:48,120 And I want to ask you today, is he king of your heart? 64 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,880 You know, you may have went to church all your life. 65 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,660 You may have been raised in the things of God on your mom and daddy's coattails and 66 00:03:55,660 --> 00:03:59,760 on their faith and really don't have that relationship with Jesus. 67 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:05,080 And today we're going to give you an opportunity to begin one, you know, because Jesus is all 68 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:06,080 about that. 69 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:10,600 The same way you speak with your children or your children want to talk to you. 70 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:11,760 That's the way God wants. 71 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,600 He loves us so much. 72 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,080 He wants to talk to us. 73 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:16,800 He wants to hear about our day. 74 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,520 Even though he knows it, he still wants to hear it because he loves us. 75 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,280 He wants to spend time with us. 76 00:04:23,280 --> 00:04:26,880 You know, Christ, Jesus Christ is the living word of God. 77 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:32,240 The Holy Spirit brings the word of God alive. 78 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:33,800 That's why we can search the word. 79 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:38,680 That's why we can read the word and it comes to life and something will jump off the pages 80 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:44,520 at us because we're searching, we're searching to seek Him and the Holy Spirit, the word 81 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,560 says is our teacher, right? 82 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,200 The Holy Spirit is our teacher. 83 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:55,480 And if we continue in Proverbs four and we're going down verse 25, look straight ahead and 84 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,440 fix your eyes on what lies before you. 85 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:03,040 Mark a straight path for your feet and stay on the safe path. 86 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,200 You know, God's path is a safe path. 87 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,520 You can trust in Him. 88 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,480 You do not have to fear. 89 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:16,080 God has not given us a spirit of fear, but power, love and a sound mind. 90 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:22,480 It says in verse 27, don't get sidetracked and keep your feet from following evil. 91 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:29,400 We all have opportunity to step into something that's not right, right? 92 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:34,800 Every day thoughts come in your head, every day information or pictures or something comes 93 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:39,120 across your phone and you could choose to think on the wrong thing. 94 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,640 And when you do, it grieves you in your heart of hearts. 95 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:48,000 It grieves God and it will not bring life to you. 96 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,560 You know, only the word of God, you know, Jesus said, I am the way. 97 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,560 I am the truth and I am the life. 98 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,100 He is the word. 99 00:05:57,100 --> 00:05:58,600 He is the living word. 100 00:05:58,600 --> 00:05:59,960 He's the life we need. 101 00:05:59,960 --> 00:06:00,960 He's your way in. 102 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,560 He's your way out. 103 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:06,400 If you need a way into God and a way into your answers, he's it. 104 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,880 He's the living word of God. 105 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:13,280 And if you need a way out of something, you've been delving in some things you shouldn't and 106 00:06:13,280 --> 00:06:16,520 it's been too long and you're feeling miserable. 107 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:21,520 You know, the Bible says sin is fun for a season, but that season ends and when that 108 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,100 season in, it's not pretty. 109 00:06:24,100 --> 00:06:27,680 And so if you need a way out today, he is your way out. 110 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:34,040 Jesus said again, I am the way, the way out, the way in the way above. 111 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:35,280 He is your way. 112 00:06:35,280 --> 00:06:37,720 He is the truth, the only truth. 113 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:39,280 It's not your truth and my truth. 114 00:06:39,280 --> 00:06:41,280 You hear that all day long nowadays. 115 00:06:41,280 --> 00:06:42,700 Oh, that's your truth. 116 00:06:42,700 --> 00:06:43,700 This is my truth. 117 00:06:43,700 --> 00:06:46,800 No, there's only one truth and he's it. 118 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:52,960 And if you want to know the truth, the way and the life, if you're tired of a destructive 119 00:06:52,960 --> 00:07:01,840 situation or, or just being down and out and depressed and all of that, look up, look up. 120 00:07:01,840 --> 00:07:03,840 Jesus is there for you. 121 00:07:03,840 --> 00:07:04,960 He is right there. 122 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:09,440 He's one whisper away and he will come running. 123 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,640 He loves you so much. 124 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:16,600 And so we're again focusing on the heart, the heart. 125 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:22,040 Remember 1 Samuel 16 7 says, man looks on the outward appearance, but God looks on the 126 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:23,120 heart. 127 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,360 You know, man is very visual. 128 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:31,520 You know, that's why people dress up and get dolled up and, and, but, but God, he looks 129 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,120 on the heart. 130 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:34,520 He looks on the heart. 131 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:44,320 You know, if we, if we turn in our word and let's go to John chapter 15, it says, I am 132 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:50,000 the true grapevine and my father is a gardener and he cuts off every branch that does not 133 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:56,560 produce fruit and he prunes the branches that do bear fruit so they will produce even more. 134 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,160 So you know, the Lord is a father. 135 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:04,000 He's our heavenly father and he will chastise us when necessary. 136 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,640 He will correct us lovingly. 137 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:11,480 He'll allow discipline in our lives because he wants the best for us. 138 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:17,160 You know, and if you don't, if you don't discipline your children, the Bible says you hate them. 139 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:22,600 So he loves us, so he will discipline us, but it says you have already been pruned and purified 140 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,320 by my message I've given you. 141 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,400 This is Jesus talking while he was on earth. 142 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:33,440 Remain in me and I remain in you for a branch cannot produce fruit if it's severed from 143 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:38,240 the vine and you cannot be fruitful unless you remain in me. 144 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:44,040 You know, unless we stay connected to the vine, just like our body, if you cut your hand off 145 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:49,120 and leave it there long enough, it's going to die because it's not connected to the life. 146 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:50,120 Right. 147 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:51,120 Life is in the blood. 148 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,520 The same way life is in the blood in our physical body. 149 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,520 Life is in the blood of Jesus. 150 00:08:56,520 --> 00:09:01,360 And when he came, he came and he brought life and life everlasting. 151 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:02,360 And we continue on. 152 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,080 It says, yes, I am the vine and you are the branches. 153 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:09,080 Those who remain in me and I and them will produce much fruit. 154 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:10,880 What kind of fruit? 155 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:16,440 Fruit, love, joy, peace, kindness, gentleness, self control, all the fruits of the spirit 156 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,280 that we need to pour into other people. 157 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:24,240 And they'll see Jesus and want to be a part of him too because without him, the Bible 158 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,640 says we can do nothing. 159 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:32,480 But with him, we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. 160 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:37,120 Anyone who does not remain in me is thrown away like a useless branch and withers. 161 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,640 Such branches are gathered into a pile and burned. 162 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:45,720 But if you remain in me and my words in you, you may ask for anything and it will be granted. 163 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:51,080 When you produce much fruit, you are my true disciples and this brings great glory to the 164 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:52,320 Father. 165 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:56,280 I have loved you even as the Father has loved you. 166 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:57,480 Remain in my love. 167 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,920 When you obey my commandments, you remain in my love. 168 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:04,920 Just as I obey my father's commandments and remain in his love. 169 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,360 Jesus was our example and continues to be. 170 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:09,360 He's alive. 171 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:10,680 He's up in heaven. 172 00:10:10,680 --> 00:10:12,000 The Bible says he lives. 173 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,120 He intercedes for us continually. 174 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:19,680 The Bible says he is king and he's coming back and he's coming back sooner than we think. 175 00:10:19,680 --> 00:10:25,400 And when he comes back, it's going to be a different world and we are so excited about 176 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:26,400 his return. 177 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,760 But before he returns, we need to talk about Jesus. 178 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:36,640 We need to share so everybody will have opportunity because without him, we have nothing. 179 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,680 And without him, you can't go to heaven. 180 00:10:38,680 --> 00:10:44,240 Without him, you can't enjoy the afterlife because there is a heaven and there's a hell 181 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,000 and there is no in between. 182 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:47,200 The Bible is clear. 183 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:53,160 Jesus is clear and he said, if you believe on me, believe in your heart that Jesus died 184 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:59,680 and rose again and you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, you will be born again. 185 00:10:59,680 --> 00:11:00,880 Hallelujah. 186 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:06,960 When you're born again, that beautiful, precious, amazing Holy Spirit comes to live inside and 187 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:08,040 he will lead you. 188 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:09,040 He will guide you. 189 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:10,240 He will direct you. 190 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,480 But again, this is all about the heart. 191 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:16,720 You know, God is a spirit and he speaks to us by the spirit. 192 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,200 He speaks spirit to spirit. 193 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:22,400 Now you're going to have thoughts in your mind and some of them are going to be your 194 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:23,480 own. 195 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:27,120 Some thoughts come in your mind and they're from the devil himself. 196 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,080 And then God will send thoughts to your mind. 197 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,920 He'll speak to you, but it always is confirmed in his word. 198 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:36,120 Whatever God speaks to you, it's confirmed. 199 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:41,400 You can find it in the word because that's who he is and he wants you to know for sure 200 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:47,360 that you hear his voice because the Holy Spirit leads us and guides us into all truth. 201 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,640 And so we cannot live with just the word though. 202 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,240 That's why we need the Holy Spirit. 203 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:58,200 It brings life to the written word of God, the power of God. 204 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,960 We have to live by the power of God. 205 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:01,960 Where would we be? 206 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:07,840 You all have such a transformation in your life when you give your whole heart to God, 207 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:09,040 not part of it. 208 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:10,200 He wants all of it. 209 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,040 He wants to come into every chamber. 210 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:17,360 You know, sometimes we lock down a door and we say, no, Jesus, you can have all these 211 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,760 sides of my heart, but this one, no, no, I'm keeping this one. 212 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:22,480 Well, that doesn't cut it. 213 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,440 We got to open up all those doors. 214 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,160 Let him come in, let him fill up. 215 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:31,480 It's like having a glass before you that has chocolate milk in it and you want to drink 216 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,160 water and you want to pour water in the glass. 217 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:37,160 Well, you can't pour water in a glass that already has chocolate milk. 218 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:38,840 It'll just be murky. 219 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:40,640 It'll be mixed. 220 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:46,640 And that's what happens when we try to live halfway in the world and halfway for Jesus. 221 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:47,840 You know, we have to follow him. 222 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:49,680 He said, take up your cross and follow me. 223 00:12:49,680 --> 00:12:51,640 Well, what is your cross? 224 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:57,880 The Bible says his, his burden is light, right? 225 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,480 Jesus said, my burden is light. 226 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:01,840 My yoke is light. 227 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,000 My burden is easy. 228 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:08,280 So his life in God doesn't mean it'll be without trouble, but he said, be of good cheer. 229 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,200 I've overcome the world. 230 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:15,720 You know, he says in 15, 18, if the world hates you, remember the world hated me first. 231 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,840 The world would love you as one of its own if you belong to it, but you are no longer 232 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:21,200 a part of the world. 233 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,480 I chose you to come out of the world. 234 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:25,760 And so the world hates you. 235 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:27,760 Do you remember what I told you? 236 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,320 You know, it is true. 237 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,320 When you're a Christian, you will be persecuted for your faith. 238 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:33,320 It's a part of it. 239 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:34,320 But guess what? 240 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,400 Greater is he that's in us than he that's in the world. 241 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:42,200 And I tell you, I wouldn't trade Jesus for anything. 242 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,240 There isn't money in the world. 243 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:45,880 There isn't man on the earth. 244 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:53,360 There isn't nothing, nothing, nothing can be exchanged for Jesus in my life or the Holy 245 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,160 Spirit or the heavenly Father. 246 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,960 And those three are one, yet they're three. 247 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:02,280 And I just thank God for the power of God that changed my life and continues to change 248 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:03,400 me and clean me out. 249 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,040 I have to empty my heart out. 250 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,320 Sometimes it gets full of concerns or this or that. 251 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,920 And I have to let him fill me to overflowing. 252 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:15,000 You know, he said he would fill you to overflowing. 253 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,760 Just ask him, ask him, pour your heart out to him, talk to him. 254 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:20,480 You can, you can have emotion. 255 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:21,880 He gave us emotion. 256 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:25,560 It's okay if you feel like crying and talking to God, cry. 257 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,480 If you feel like screaming, scream. 258 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:28,680 God can handle it. 259 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,000 He's a big God. 260 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:34,680 He knows, he knows what you're going through, but he also wants to comfort you. 261 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:35,960 He wants to bring you peace. 262 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:40,240 He wants to bring you strength and there's definitely hope he wants to give you. 263 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:46,840 You know, he is, you know, his word is a living word, the holy water, the holy water. 264 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:48,040 It's so precious. 265 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:49,600 It's so beautiful. 266 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,440 The word of God is like the rivers of living water. 267 00:14:52,440 --> 00:15:00,440 It Bible says out of our belly, because the Holy spirit's in there, we will flow as you pour in, you pour out, you pour in, you pour out. 268 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:03,560 Garbage and garbage out. 269 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,160 The word of God in the word of God out. 270 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:13,520 So holy water will be poured out, poured out for you and for the world as you yield to him. 271 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,520 So we are so thankful for that holy water. 272 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,640 We are so thankful for the living word of God. 273 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:27,800 We are so thankful that God is faithful and he is faithful to a thousand generations, a thousand generations. 274 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,120 And we praise his holy name for it. 275 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,200 He's worthy of all praise. 276 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:32,760 Why? 277 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:34,760 Because he is God. 278 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:36,120 He cares about you. 279 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,640 He cares about every detail of your life. 280 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,440 If you have a financial need today, he will meet your need. 281 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,360 If you give your life to him, he will meet your need. 282 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:51,560 You know, there's a story in the Bible where Jesus and Peter needed to pay taxes. 283 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,320 And Jesus sent Peter. 284 00:15:53,320 --> 00:16:00,280 He said, go to the water and the first fish you see, grab it up and there's going to be a coin in his mouth. 285 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:04,040 And sure enough, supernatural provision. 286 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:08,440 Peter went to that fish, grabbed that, opened his mouth and there's that coin. 287 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,120 Wasn't it paid both their taxes? 288 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:11,640 It was enough to pay their taxes. 289 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:12,280 Why? 290 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:18,760 Because God says he provides all your need according to his riches and glory and he owns it all. 291 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:19,720 He owns it all. 292 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,600 The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof. 293 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:23,480 Hallelujah. 294 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:24,200 Glory to God. 295 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,040 You don't have to worry about finances. 296 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:27,240 Does he want you to work? 297 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:27,960 Absolutely. 298 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:29,320 We have to work. 299 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:35,160 But in times of situations that sometimes occur, he'll provide for you supernaturally. 300 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:36,760 He'll give you that promotion. 301 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:37,560 You seek him. 302 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:38,360 You work hard. 303 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,560 You trust in him and he will get you that promotion. 304 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:42,360 Why? 305 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:46,520 Because the Bible says when you're in Christ, he wraps you with his favor. 306 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,720 We have favor wrapped around us like a shield. 307 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,160 So everywhere you go, you can have the favor of God. 308 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:59,640 When you show forth the fruit of the spirit, when you work hard, but when you also believe 309 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,200 him without faith, it's impossible to please him. 310 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:04,360 So we want to have faith. 311 00:17:04,360 --> 00:17:05,240 Believe big. 312 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:07,160 Believe big. 313 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:11,240 If your company is just starting out, you've been going a few years and 314 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,160 you're thinking, will it ever get bigger? 315 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:14,120 Oh, I'll be happier. 316 00:17:14,120 --> 00:17:15,160 Don't be happy there. 317 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:16,840 Believe big. 318 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:17,800 Plan big. 319 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:19,800 Make wisdom. 320 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,360 Use wisdom with your steps. 321 00:17:22,360 --> 00:17:26,840 But God will bless the hands of everyone that loves him. 322 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,320 He says he will bless the work of your hands. 323 00:17:30,120 --> 00:17:30,680 All of it. 324 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:31,880 All of it. 325 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:32,920 You have a problem? 326 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:34,280 Hand it over to Jesus. 327 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,440 He'll ask him for wisdom. 328 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:40,440 The Bible says if you ask for wisdom, he'll pour it out liberally on you. 329 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,840 He'll pour it out liberally on you. 330 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:48,200 I tell you what God's word is, is wonderful. 331 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:49,960 It's like holy water. 332 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:51,400 It's just wonderful. 333 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,520 You can just drink of the living water of God. 334 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:55,800 He will fill you up. 335 00:17:55,800 --> 00:18:01,480 You can just lift your hands and say, here I am Lord and he'll come and fill you up. 336 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:07,800 He loves you so much and you want to be filled with his Holy spirit again and again and again. 337 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:08,120 Why? 338 00:18:08,120 --> 00:18:10,440 Because that's the power of God. 339 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,040 That's the power of God. 340 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,240 God wants to work supernaturally in your life. 341 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,240 He wants you to know he is God. 342 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,520 He is God alone and he loves you. 343 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:48,520 And we're going to break away for a couple of songs and I'm going to come right back at you in just a couple of minutes. 344 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,080 Praise on the mountain. 345 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:57,480 I praise when I'm short. 346 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:00,360 Praise when I'm down. 347 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:04,920 I praise when I'm numb. 348 00:19:06,360 --> 00:19:08,120 Praise when I'm surrounded. 349 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:12,920 Praise is the water. 350 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:15,720 My enemy's drowning. 351 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,720 Praise the Lord. 352 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:25,720 As long as I'm breathing I've got a reason to praise the Lord. 353 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:29,720 Oh my soul. 354 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:33,720 Praise the Lord. 355 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:37,720 Oh my soul. 356 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:43,720 Praise when I'm feeling and I praise when I talk. 357 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:49,720 I praise because I know you're still in control. 358 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:53,720 Because my praise is a weapon. 359 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:57,720 It's worth the sound. 360 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:07,720 Oh my praise is the sound that brings Jerry down. 361 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:15,720 As long as I'm breathing I've got a reason to praise the Lord. 362 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:17,720 Oh my soul. 363 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,720 Praise the Lord. 364 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:25,720 Oh my soul. 365 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,720 I won't be crying. 366 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,720 My heart is alive. 367 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:31,720 So how could I keep it inside? 368
