[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. Be thankful, Be happy. Continually give God that sacrifice. Praise. Praise him and thank him. I'm.
[00:00:25] Yeah. So it's literally been about two weeks since I've been doing a teaching. I know I did one a couple days ago. But it's funny, you go through waves when you're reading, and if you read the Word, which I everybody should do, and know that the anointing will teach you. So as you read, you will learn the Word because God is with you. You do not need a teacher. You just need to read the Word. Although it's difficult to begin with, but, you know, you kind of go through waves and breaks. But then also I read something that totally flipped my mind and I've been working the Word, like obsessively with it and the teach. I'm just having a hard time with doing both simultaneously. I am male, so that might be my problem.
[00:01:07] But I read this this morning and this blessed me just considering the world, the state of things as we move through life. If you go to second Peter, chapter two. Actually, it's chapter three, verse nine. It says the Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some count slackness, but is long suffering to us. We're not willing that any should perish for perish, but that all should come to repentance or a real change of mind. Now this is coming. This is talking about the coming of our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus. Like, he's not slack. He's coming.
[00:01:41] Verse 10. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great and rushing sound. And the elementary rules shall be dissolved with fervent heat. The. The earth also, and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
[00:02:00] All this stuff is going away. And you got to remember that it doesn't matter really what you build. I was talking to my dad last night. And he. His whole life he prayed for freedom, freedom of time, something that God gave him.
[00:02:15] You don't have.
[00:02:17] Like all the things you work for are going away.
[00:02:21] All this earth is going away. Everything is not going to be here. So as if you keep going. Verse 11. Seeing that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in holy conversation or holy behavior and godliness? And again, you have the behavior side, but then you have godliness and godliness. Is that true and personal and vital and spiritual relationship with God?
[00:02:52] Do you have a relationship with God? I think about it in my life more as a servant. I've always thought of the relationship with God as a servant. But really we're a son. And God wants you to develop a true and personal relationship where you hear from that object of your affection and you heed its advice. You heed God's advice, you have his word that brings you closer to God. You, you can talk to God, you can pray to God, and you can hear his voice because God is spirit. And when you're born spiritually new, when you're born holy, when you have pneuma, you have that connection.
[00:03:31] That's what it's about.
[00:03:33] Knowing your Father.
[00:03:35] All this stuff is burning away. All this stuff is going away.
[00:03:40] Verse 12. Looking for and hastening to, to the coming of the day of God, on account of which the heavens, being on fire, shall be dissolved in the elementary rules, or the elements shall melt with fervent heat. Nevertheless, we, according to his promise, look for a new heavens and a new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness. When Christ comes back, we are out of here, which is phenomenal. And in that place dwelleth righteousness. Not carnal nature, not the sin nature, but true righteousness.
[00:04:13] Verse 14. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that we look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, spotless and blameless. Peace from comes from God. Peace comes from walking spiritually. Grace, which is his loving disposition, and peace, which is the state of undisturbed well being, will make you full through the instrument of the epignosis. Having a true and personal relationship with God.
[00:04:42] He wants to find you in peace. But you can't have peace if you don't have God. If you don't rely on God, it's a phenomenal. We have a phenomenal opportunity in life to get to know him, to learn how to change our mind, to get to the point where you're just settled knowing that God's going to take care of him, take care of you. Tribulation. Work with patience. Patience, experience, experience.
[00:05:05] Hope.
[00:05:06] And hope will not cause shame.
[00:05:09] Hope will never cause you shame. The expectation of future good will never cause you shame. But you got to go through life dealing with life in order to get to the point where you've experienced praying and watching God come through you Pray to God. The small prayers, you pray to God. The big prayers. You pray out loud, asking God to take care of the situation. Lifting it up in the name of Jesus Christ.
[00:05:35] He wants a personal relationship with you that you may be found in peace, in good behavior, enjoying your life as a true son of God. And it's amazing what Christ did for us. Pray the big prayers today. Lift them up in the name of Jesus Christ. Always pray to God. Never to Jesus Christ. You always pray to God. Lifting it up in the name of Jesus Christ. Have a great day. God bless you and your family. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
