[00:00:01] Good morning. Good morning. 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 is the day the Lord hath made. We will 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 am in the midst of it again, like so we have all this product that needs to get out and then we use a contractor for some other product and of course the contractor isn't getting back to us.
[00:00:36] So now I'm in this, you know, I'm starting to wake up early. It's the same, it's a cycle that always happens. And I just think it's ironic considering what I'm going over, shelving it, giving it to God. It is not easy to give your thoughts to God over and over and over again like 50,000 times a day. You know what I mean?
[00:00:56] But that's what you got to do, knowing that God's going to take care of it.
[00:00:59] On top of it, my brother and his hand, like he's going through that. The, the, the. To see whether or not he's going to have full grip and, and feeling in his hand. And you know, it's again, you got to give these situations to God. Not to mention he literally healed my ankle a couple days ago. I mean, I, I think I might have sprained my ankle a little bit walking from the bathroom to my bed. But anyways, God's there and it's in these moments, especially for me, it's in these moments when I start to really go to God and really face him. And like, you gotta help me out here.
[00:01:34] Every time that this happens, tribulation, it worketh patience, it affects your patient enduring and patience experience, which is the state of being tried experiencing that state. And ex. And experience hope, which is the expectation of future good. And hope.
[00:01:49] That expectation of future good will never cause you shame.
[00:01:53] I know and can rely on the fact that no matter what's going on, I can go to God and he will take care of this situation. He'll take care of the situation with my brother. He always provides. He's going to provide for you. Face him, go to him, have that godliness which is that reverence, that awe, having that relationship with God. He doesn't ask for much.
[00:02:17] I was reading in Proverbs this morning, chapter four, verse.
[00:02:23] Oh, where was it? Verse 20. It says, my son attend to my words and incline thine ear to my understandings. Listen to what I'm saying.
[00:02:31] Verse 21. Let them not depart from thine eyes. Keep them in the midst or in the middle of thine heart, or in thy thoughts, for they are life unto those that find them and and healing to all their flesh.
[00:02:46] If you're struggling, if you've been bruised, if you're psychologically bruised, go to His Word and start to put this stuff in your mind. Because they'll be healing to you. They'll be life for you.
[00:02:58] Life in all of its manifestations. God has a life that he wants for us, each and every one of you, individually too, which I love. It's not some monolithic or monotone life. It's a life that's individual. And he has a purpose for each one of us. Not every one in the body has its own. Everyone in the body has its own position. Not everyone has the same position.
[00:03:20] But these words from the Word are what's going to heal your mind, heal your thoughts, heal your body.
[00:03:26] If you jump down to verse 23, keep or guard thy heart. Guard the emotional revolving veins of the mind. Guard your feelings with all diligence, above all that must be guarded.
[00:03:38] Think about all the things you gotta protect. And God says, protect your mind, protect your thoughts, protect your will, even your intellect. Protect it above all other things, for out of it are the issues of life.
[00:03:53] Verse 24. Put away from thee a forward or perverse mouth and perverse lips put far from thee. Don't distort the truth. Don't distort the truth with yourself too.
[00:04:07] You to be honest in life, honest with yourself, honest with other people, honest with God.
[00:04:12] Verse 25. Let thine eyes look right on. Let thy eyelids look straight before thee. Ponder the path of thy feet and let all thy ways be established. And I love this too. Don't be hasty.
[00:04:25] Don't be quick to just go, go, go, go, go, go, go. Think about what you're doing.
[00:04:30] Think about the steps you're going to take. And I also think that capturing the thoughts of your. Capturing the thoughts and bringing every thought to Christ, capture what's going on in your mind and bring it to God. Pray to God to remove those thoughts. But when it talks about bringing or capturing and bringing those thoughts to Christ, it's talking about his words, what he says about them.
[00:04:53] Live a life that God wants for you. It's not about having to do these things out of obligation. He gives us a choice.
[00:05:01] Verse 26. Ponder the path of thy Feet and let all thy ways be established. Turn not to the right hand nor to the left. Remove thy foot from evil.
[00:05:12] There's a reason God has all these things for us. There's a reason we're to trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not into thine own understanding. In all thy ways, acknowledge him and he shall direct thy path. You go to God, and he's going to direct the right path for you, no matter how hedged in it is.
[00:05:30] Pray the big prayers today. Lift everything up in the name of Jesus Christ. When you pray, it's always to God, never to Jesus Christ. You pray to God, lifting it up in the name of Jesus Christ. And have a great day. God bless you and your family. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
[00:05:54] Well, Heavenly Father, thank you so much again for today. I pray for what's going on with the situation with those chairs that. That gets done, the coffee tables, the.
[00:06:06] The. The stools. I mean, there's just a lot. I know it's so small in comparison to life, Father, but I ask you to take care of it for me, my family and the business. I pray for my brother, his hand, his. The pressure in his brain, or whatever is going on with that. I just pray that you take care of that situation.
[00:06:25] I thank you again for each and every one of my friends and the people you put in my life. I thank you for the business. I thank you for the people that we work with, that you take care of them and that everybody that received the product that we produce is blessed. I thank you for our customers. I also pray for each and every one of your believers that you take care of them today, that you take. Just. Just bless their heart and just show them you're there with them. And I just thank you again for your son and what he did for us. And in order that we can live this life that we do, I just lift everything up to you in the name of my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus.
