[00:00:03] Speaker A: How are you on this fine, fine, beautiful day? Hope you're having a great day today. I hope you are excited today because today's the day the Lord hath made.
[00:00:12] Speaker B: We will be glad. We will rejoice in it.
[00:00:14] Speaker A: Rejoice in every single moment that you have under the sun in this cosmos, in this arrangement.
[00:00:18] Speaker B: Be thankful, be happy.
[00:00:19] Speaker A: Continually give God that sacrifice.
[00:00:22] Speaker B: Praise. Praise him and thank him.
[00:00:24] Speaker A: So this morning I woke up and I was walking to the restroom and my ankle popped. And I'm like having a hard time walking. And it's just, of course it's the worst time period there could be. Immediately start praying, you know, And I just. It's just funny how these things work out.
[00:00:42] Speaker B: Getting older is just unbelievable.
[00:00:43] Speaker A: But I was reading and I don't know why this was so profound for me today.
But just knowing that God's statutes, God's commandments are a good thing. I know that a lot of time in life, I've always condemned myself for not doing certain things. Now again, the minute you believe in the name of Jesus Christ, you're righteous. But your acts do have in cause effect in your life. If you do wrong, you're going to receive the wrong that you did. It's kind of like the way it goes, but it's. It's kind of a blessing that God gave them to show us where to walk and how to walk. Now again, the moment you believe in the name of Jesus Christ, you're righteous with God and you're upright with God.
But what you do, godly grief, work of the change in your moral position, what you do affects and causes change.
I want to start with this. If you go to Psalms chapter 105, verse 1, it says, oh, give thanks unto the Lord, Call upon His name. Make known his deeds among the people.
Call upon his name.
Anytime you get that thought, change your mind, renovate that thought and go to God and shelve it. Even this ankle thing, this is happening at a really bad time because we're so busy.
But I got to just give it to God. It'll be taken care of. The moments of my life will be taken care of. There's no need to freak out.
Give thanks unto the Lord. Call upon his name. Make known his deeds among his people.
Sing unto Him. Sing songs unto him. Talk ye of all his wondrous works. Glory ye in his holy name. Let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord.
The more you go to God, the more the inner thoughts, the emotional revolvings of the mind will rejoice.
And isn't that quite different than what happens now?
Now maybe. Maybe you're already on the right road. I have no idea.
I'm certainly not. I mean, I. I catch myself constantly going into like a state of anxiety or state of negativity.
But the more you think about God, the more you give it to God, the more you hand over your problems to God. And I can't tell you how much I've been doing that. Like God, it's in your hands. This is in your hands. I ask that you take care of it and lift it up in the name of Jesus Christ.
The more I do that, the more I see God's goodness for us. We're not to live this life of anxiety and constant fear that is not out from the origins of God.
God's love is peaceful.
It's a perfect love. It casteth out fear because fear hath torment and God is love. That love of God rests in you and is going to remove the torment and the anxious thought.
That way the seed of your distinctive character, that which makes you, you, the things you think about become good.
And isn't that a place to be? If you go to Psalms chapter 1:12, verse 1, it says, Praise ye the Lord. Blessed is the man that feareth or has reverential all for the Lord that delighteth greatly in his commandments. And like I said, I don't know why this was so profound to me today. But God gave his commandments to clean up his people, not so that he would look on them better. It's because the things that happen that you do in life affects your life. The more you covet, the more you, you look on somebody else's things and you want them. And you that draws negative things out of your life. Do not steal, do not commit adultery, do not. I mean, there's so many things, it's so simple. I read them the other day. It's been so long since I've read the Ten Commandments. I was like, what are. I don't even know what they are, honestly. But it, when you do read it, it's such a simple thing.
Simple thing. And yet we condemn and condone ourselves for anything you do.
Blessed be the God, the man that has reverential awe for the Lord that delighteth greatly in his commandments. His seed shall be mighty upon the earth. The generation of the upright shall be blessed. Wealth and riches shall be in his house, and his righteousness endureth forever.
There's so many promises that God has for you. When you renew and renovate and change your mind, give it to God. Everything you're doing in your life, when you start to feel or when you start to think the thoughts that are negative, just give it to God and change your mind.
Because at some point the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts. And to get to know God, the instrument of that grace, which is God's loving disposition and peace, which is the state of undisturbed well being, undisturbed well being, will make you full through the instrument of having an epignosis, a true and personal relationship with God where you hear from him and you heed his advice and his son, Jesus Christ. That's two different things.
That's how you get to know God. You start going to him and building the relationship with Him. Have a phenomenal day today. Pray the big prayers lift everything up in the name of Jesus Christ. When you pray, it's always to God. It's never to Jesus Christ. You pray to God, lifting it up in the name of Jesus Christ.
[00:05:40] Speaker B: Have a great day.
[00:05:41] Speaker A: God bless you and your family. Talk to you tomorrow.
I will be coming home.
[00:05:55] Speaker B: Well, Heavenly Father, thank you so much for today. I pray for my ankle. I'm not sure what happened, but I just ask that you take care of that and that it doesn't affect what's going on today and next week and the weeks after and the coming weeks. I thank you again for everything you do for us and how you do it.
[00:06:12] Speaker A: I. I just pray for a great day, a blessed day.
[00:06:15] Speaker B: I thank you for the abundance that you've given us and that we can continue to move. I pray that we get a couple people in here to help and that it's a blessing. And again, I just thank you for the moments, for my family, for everybody. You've surrounded me with friends.
I'm just very, very grateful. I lift up and pray for each and every one of your believers today, that you take care of them and that you bless them and yeah, I thank you for your son and what he did for us.
[00:06:38] Speaker A: I lift up a great day to
[00:06:39] Speaker B: you in the name of my Lord and Savior, Christ Jesus.
