[00:00:01] Good morning. Good morning. How are you on this fine, fine, beautiful day? I hope you're having a great day today and I hope you are excited today. Yes. Today is the day that the Lord hath made. We'll be glad. We will rejoice in it. Rejoice in every single moment that you have under the sun in this cosmos, in this arrangement. Be thankful. Be happy. Continually give God that sacrifice. Praise. Praise him and thank him and be joyful. I am so sore.
[00:00:27] I mean, I've been working out with this guy for six months. You'd think at some point it would stop, but. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. I can barely put on clothes or get out of bed or get off, you know, walk down the stairs. It is unbelievable. And if you aren't working out, well, I mean, good, actually, I think that's genius. But this morning I was reading Ephesians, chapter 3, verse 19. It says, to know the love of the Messiah, which passeth experiential knowledge in order that ye might be filled with or fully accomplished with all the fullness of God, to believe in the name of Jesus Christ and to receive the love of Christ. Like what Christ did for us is he died for us. He died for people he didn't know. He died for generations of people that we don't have to live by law. And that through him, through believing, and he suffered major things through believing. We might be the sons and children or the sons and daughters of God. I mean, it says sons, it doesn't say daughters anywhere. Everybody's sons of God, but it's just a joy that we have that opportunity. Verse 20. Now unto him, and this is God who is able to do infinitely beyond abundant above all that we ask or think according to the power that worketh in us. To him be glory.
[00:01:52] God is infinitely diverse. His wisdom is infinitely diversified. He can do abounding above all that you can ask or think, and I can think of a lot of stuff he can do all above that. And that power is working in you, the Holy Spirit, that Spirit from on high, the power from on high. You have that now. You just got to start to turn to God and start to pray and recognize who you are as a son of God. To him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. I there. Well, you know what? I'm going to jump back to this. But if you jump over to chapter four, verse 23, well, verse 22, it says that ye put off concerning the former or before manner of life. The old man The Adam nature which is corrupt or being corrupted according to deceitful lust or those sinful desires. And that ye be renewed in the spirit of your reflective con. Conscious. Renewed implies that the whole course of your life changes in a different direction.
[00:02:57] You have the old man and the new man, the new spiritual man, who you are, the new spirit. And you could choose in life. But if you're renewed in the spirit of the mind, you change the entire correction, the entire direction of your life towards God. And when you do that, there's great things that happen because you can have the spiritual peace that comes from that. If you go back to verse four, chapter four, verse one, it says, I, therefore the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the calling, wherewith you were called with all humility and meekness, with long suffering or long before anger forbearing or bearing with one another in love. And I love this next verse, verse 3. Studying to keep the unity or the oneness of the Holy Spirit in the bond, or that's what finds of the peace. You're going to be given opportunities in life to either choose the carnal or choose the spiritual. And the thing is, is you have the laws written in your heart so you know what's right and wrong. That's where that godly grief worketh. A change in your moral position. It'll eat at you, really. But all you have to do is just decide. And it's not always the easiest thing to do, to choose to walk in the spirit and not set your course of life in the spiritual things, which again, you can get from God's word. When you start reading this stuff and you start seeing little principles in here and changing your mind to what the Word says, you're walking in that spirit, that godly spirit.
[00:04:27] He's giving you the real, true meat of life. This is how I want you to walk. And if you walk in this, you're gonna have a peaceful life. But if you walk this other way, if you walk in the carnal man, the way the world tells you to walk and set your course of life in that you're gonna be dealing with some stuff that everybody else deals with.
[00:04:49] We have been given this amazing opportunity, and you've been given a tremendous opportunity in your life to just follow what God wants you to follow, to change your mind and to decide, I'm going to live this way. I'm not going to be anxious for not one thing. If I'm anxious, I'm not going to be anxious for that thing. I'M going to pray to God because I know that the state and pray with thanksgiving specific prayers because I know the state of peace will protect me. God's peace will protect me from my own thoughts. If I stick to that verse. I'm not going to be anxious. I'm not going to be anxious. You don't allow yourself to roll down that, that rabbit hole, that snowball in your mind. It's the beautiful things that God's given us to take captive each and every thought that we live with day by day. You get to choose. And you're a son of God regardless. You have that liberty.
[00:05:39] You're free.
[00:05:41] Have a beautiful day. Pray the big prayers. Lift everything up in the name of Jesus Christ. Again, when you pray, you always pray to God, never to Jesus Christ. That is not biblical. You pray to God. You lift it up in the name of Jesus Christ. Have a great day. God bless you and your family and I'll talk to you tomorrow. Let your soul and spirit fly into the misty well, Heavenly Father, thank you so much just for everything that you do. I pray that you get me like operating properly today. I know there's a stuff, ton of stuff that needs to get done. I ask that you just direct me in that. I also pray that we take the right steps concerning the new business, that we also take the right steps concerning that business that you have also given us, that it's just a blessing and that we continually do those things that need to be done in that. And again, I thank you for my family and for the things that you've provided me. And I'm just thankful for your word and what it does and how much it changed me over the years. I just lift up a great day to you in the name of my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus. Exactly what you want me to understand from it. And again, I just thank you for the moments of my life. I lift up a great day to you in the name my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus.
