[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. I hope you are excited today because today is the day 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, to be thankful, be happy. Continually give God that sacrifice. Praise. Praise him and thank him so much.
[00:00:26] I was listening to the teachings last couple days and boy, have they gone way over that. Five to six, seven minutes I normally stay in. So I'm gonna tighten it up a little bit. I'm gonna tighten it up a little bit.
[00:00:38] But, yeah, I was reading this morning. I've been working out that the Romans. And again, I'm still on that inheritance. I'm trying to figure out. There's like the inheritance you receive now. There's the inheritance, the allotted or portion inheritance you receive later, which I'm working out and I'll get to. But I went over this this morning because in verse 23 of 2nd or 3rd Colossians 3, it says, and whatsoever ye do, do it heartily as unto the Lord and not unto men, knowing that of the Lord, ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance. For ye serve the Lord Christ. You do all things for God, you do all things for his Son, Jesus Christ, because that's where you receive.
[00:01:20] You might think you're receiving. I've been going through this thing right now because we're so busy with work.
[00:01:27] I'm working, but then we have a trainer now I'm trying to get a trainer for everybody, so our team gets the workout.
[00:01:36] And I'm like, conflicted because I'm working and I'm doing a lot more reading. I'm working a lot harder on the Word. And then after that, I go to work. I do work. And then we have this training thing in the middle of the day, and then afterwards I have a couple hours.
[00:01:52] But I condemn myself if I don't work eight hours a day, if I'm not working, if I'm not putting the time in, I just. I beat myself up about it. Because you work for God and it's of God who's going to give to give. He's going to pay, I guess.
[00:02:10] But in my mind, you know, is working the word, like, where does that fall in?
[00:02:16] Does that count as work? Does that not count as work? So that's a struggle I've been going through. But the point is, is that whatever you do, you do it Heartily as unto the Lord, with all of the powers that you have, you do. You work. You don't get on your phone. You don't waste time. You work because God knows.
[00:02:37] If you go to verse, verse 12, it says, put on therefore as the elect are called of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies. And this is subjective compassion. There's things the.
[00:02:52] The heart is so he thinketh as he is. Whatever's in your heart, whatever you think about it, makes you you. That is your heart. That is the seat of your distinctive character. And the things we're supposed to put on as the elect are called of God is mercy, which is subjective compassion. It's not objective, it's subjective. You choose.
[00:03:15] You choose who you have compassion for. You have to choose in your heart to be compassionate towards people.
[00:03:24] Put on therefore, as the elect are called of God, bowels of mercies, kindness, which is sweetness and disposition.
[00:03:32] Humbleness of mind, which is not easy, which is modesty, meekness, which is enduring all things with an even temper and being long suffering, which is long before anger.
[00:03:45] These are all. It's funny because with me and my.
[00:03:48] The only one I really get angry with would be my brother. Honestly, I can everybody else, I can kind of keep my anger meter within a range. That is acceptable. But with my brother, for some reason, I lose it. He's like the one that takes all my wrath.
[00:04:05] But you got to put this stuff on in your life. You have to choose.
[00:04:10] It's not that you read the Word and you just become, you know, Kumbaya.
[00:04:16] That's not how it works. You have to choose. And you have to choose God and you have to choose to renovate and renew your mind.
[00:04:25] And above all these, well, verse 13, forbearing or holding up one another and forgiving one another. If any man have a quarrel against any, even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. You have to forgive.
[00:04:40] We have a we had sit we. There are situations, like family situations where you have to forgive people. You can't walk around in life not forgiving. And the reason why I say that is because it says it in the Word. I would love to hold on to a couple of things.
[00:04:57] Believe me, I would love to hold onto a couple things. Some of the things that I'm angry about or that hurt me, I still hold. That actually crafted my personality.
[00:05:07] It made me as go gettery, I guess, as I am as a go getter.
[00:05:14] But it doesn't make it a good thing.
[00:05:17] You have to forgive. And finally, verse 14 and above all these things, above mercies, above kindness, above being modest, above enduring everything with an even temper, above being long before anger, above forgiving, above holding up everyone.
[00:05:37] Put on love, which is a bond of the perfectness that you have. It makes you complete.
[00:05:44] You have to put on love, perfect love. It casteth out fear because fear hath torment.
[00:05:52] You got to renew your mind. You got to know the word pray. If you're in a situation and you can't handle it, pray.
[00:05:58] If you need to renovate your mind, read.
[00:06:01] And if you want to feel God's loving grace, talk to God.
[00:06:06] That will get you into a point of a. Of a state of peace.
[00:06:10] Grace and peace will fill you up through the instrument of the epignosis. Having a true and personal relationship with God, where you hear from him and you heed his advice.
[00:06:20] Have a great day today. Pray the big prayers. Pray the small prayers. Pray lifting everything up. Pray to God. Lifting everything up in the name of Jesus Christ. When you pray, you never pray to Christ. It won't go anywhere. You pray to God. Lifting it up in the name of Jesus Christ with thanksgiving. Have a great day. God bless you and your family. Talk to you tomorrow.
[00:06:49] Well, Heavenly Father, thank you so much for just everything you do for us again for the move today. I pray that you order my steps, that I can get everything done, that I'm not forgetting anything, that I actually sit down and do the bills.
[00:07:02] I don't get in trouble.
[00:07:04] I thank you for the moments again of my life and just how you take care of me and my family. And I'm just very, very grateful for that. I pray for a great day today and just continual abundance and blessings and that you can just show us what to do, when to do it. And I thank you for closing the door, opening the doors, but also closing them, Father. And just for your abundance, I lift up a great day to you in the name of my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus. This sad.
