Rejoice in every single moment that you have under the sun in this cosmos, in this arrangement. Be thankful, be happy. Continually give God to that sacrifice of. Praise man. Life. Life isn't just guaranteed and health isn't guaranteed.
Stand in the liberty where with Christ hath made you free. And be not entangled again with the weight or the yoke of the bondage or servitude of the law. Stand in liberty. You have the freedom to go where one wants. Be thankful for every moment that you have. I'm.
Yeah, man, just. Just a cruising, just trying to get through it. The funny thing is I have a golf trip coming up, which I'm super excited about.
[00:00:57] Speaker B: It's actually a.
[00:00:59] Speaker A: So you'd think one would be all excited, but I'm just trying to get through, get through for the next couple weeks. But I was reading this morning and, you know, it's always good to know the trial of your faith is the most important thing you're going to go through in life. Regardless of if you're successful or you feel, quote, unquote, successful. It's the trial of your faith that's important. If you go to First Peter, chapter.
Let's see here. Chapter one, verse three. It says, blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which, according to his abode, abundant mercy hath begotten us again. Now this begotten us again is we've been sired. We are sons of God. His abundant mercy, which is that active compassion. So God, who is full of active compassion, overflowing with active compassion, hath sired us again into a lively hope or the hope of living again by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. When Jesus Christ was raised from the dead, it gave us a lively hope that we are going to be raised from the dead. And he reconnected us. God reconnected us to himself. The minute you believed in the name of Jesus Christ, he reconnected us by giving us the spoken word of his inner thoughts, of the reconnection.
And we're born again. You're born, you're sired. New verse 4. To an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven. For you, this inheritance that we have received is incorruptible. And man like you look at our world and how corrupted it actually is. Ours is incorrupted. It's beautiful. And you know the goodness of God. When we get there, you know the goodness of God, how good this. How good this life will be.
Verse 5. Who are kept are guarded by the inherent power of God through faith unto salvation, which is that safety or that preservation ready to be revealed in the last time.
Again, we are guarded by God's inherent power.
Sometimes I know that anytime that my nephews go do something dangerous, I'm praying, I'm praying for them. And I thank God that they're around. And I thank God for everything that's happening, but I'm praying for them.
And God knows and hears that prayer. And they are guarded by God's inherent power.
God knows my heart. God knows my family's heart.
Those children are guarded. You are guarded. You are protected. God knows every hair on your head. It's just so. I don't know. It's so loving. We have such a loving God. Verse 6. Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season if need be. Ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations. If you're going through the weight that happens, that yoke, that's that you're kind of set by the trial of your life, the trials and the tribulations. If you're feeling that, that the trial of your faith being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it be tried with fire, might be found to praise and honor and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ.
The trial of your faith is the most important thing that you go through. It's not having kids, it's not being married, it's not being successful.
That's not what life is about. It's about the trial of your faith and standing, setting your course of life in the goodness of faith. And that is believing specifically in what you hear from God.
Grace, which has got that loving disposition and peace, which is the state. Standing in a state of undisturbed well being will make you full through the instrument of the epignosis. Having a true and personal relationship with God, where you hear from him and you heed his advice, and you hear from His Son and heed his advice. That's in First Peter or maybe Second Peter, one of them, all that stuff. The trial of your faith is the most important thing. And if you're going through it, man, everybody goes through it. Everybody. But you have God behind you.
You Have God behind you. I want to Finish with these two verses, all three verses. Numbers. Chapter 5, 6 in First Peter. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God that He may exalt you in due season. He's going to exalt you on his time, casting all your care upon him, for he careth for you.
You give God your cares because he cares for you.
No matter what's happening in your life, don't forget the things that matter.
Don't forget you have a God that loves you. And finally, verse 10. But the God of all grace. And that's that loving disposition that. That compassion he has for you who called us to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus. After that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, establish, strengthen and settle you. After you've. After you've. After you suffered for a while, he's gonna make you perfect, and he's gonna establish and he's gonna strengthen you. He's gonna settle you in your life.
All these. All these. It's all for purpose, man.
Go to God. Love God in him is not fear. Casting all your cares upon him because he cares for you. Have a beautiful day today. Pray the big prayers. Lift everything up in the name of Jesus Christ. When you pray again, you always pray to Christ Jesus. You don't or you always pray to God. Wow. You never pray to Christ. You always pray to God. Lifting it up in the name of Jesus Christ. God bless you and your family today. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
[00:07:12] Speaker B: Well, Heavenly Father, thank you so much just for today and for everything that's going on. I pray again for our country and just all the stuff that's happening. That you protect us and that we don't go to war. And I thank you that your hand is upon each and every moment of our life. Father, I thank you for my family again, for the. Just the joy of last night and the fire. And I just am very, very grateful for the place you've put me. I pray for the people we work with and that you always take care of them and bless them. If there's anything that I need to do differently, that you put that on my heart and my family and.
Yeah, I just pray for each and every one of your believers today that you protect them and just show them your love. And again, I thank you for always providing the things that I've wanted and that have been on my heart and that you continually do that. I lift up a great day to you in the name of my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus.
