[00:00:01] Speaker A: Good morning.
[00:00:02] Speaker B: Good morning.
[00:00:03] Speaker A: How are you on this fine, fine, beautiful day?
[00:00:06] Speaker B: Hope you're having a great day today.
[00:00:07] Speaker A: I hope you are excited today because today is the day the Lord hath made. We will be glad.
[00:00:12] Speaker B: We will rejoice in it.
[00:00:13] Speaker A: 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.

So we have a trainer that comes
[00:00:27] Speaker B: to,
[00:00:30] Speaker A: to work and we have a
[00:00:32] Speaker B: gym there and everybody works out together. Everybody that works with us.
[00:00:37] Speaker A: Yesterday we did deadlifts and I was so exhausted by the time I got done that when I got home I fell asleep.
[00:00:44] Speaker B: I probably fell asleep at 7:30, 8:00 clock last night.
[00:00:46] Speaker A: I could not keep my eyes open. And today I'm having a hard time sitting down or walking around, which is actually probably a good thing, trying to release everything. But I'm not going to go over what you think about today.
The point is, is don't. I mean, I've gone over that a lot. But you do have to always constantly be on the lookout for what you're thinking. Change your mind, renovate your thoughts, pray to God. I had someone call me or talk to me yesterday, one of my best friends. And he, he said, you know, I was actually, I know we've gone over it a lot because he's in the men's group about praying, but I don't know why. Yesterday I prayed and it was taken care of. And I'm not saying that God's going to take care of every single situation the second you pray it.
But you will start to see God taking care of situations. It might be that week, it might be that day, might be that hour. I mean, just depends on what it is. It might be a year from now, but God will always take care of you. God will always come through. And when you pray specific prayers to God and those prayers of supplication which are prayers of personal need, with thanksgiving, you're going to see God come through in your life.
Now, I, I was reading Galatians this morning. This has to do with knowing that you're not justified by works. And if you're one of those who condemn themselves for what you're doing or the way you're operating, here's the deal. In godly grief, it worketh a change in your moral position. There is a change that will happen or there's a grief that occurs when you need to change something. Morally, however, you're not justified by that. That doesn't make you righteous in God's eyes. And if you go to Galatians, chapter 2, verse 16, it says, knowing that a man is not justified or set forth as righteous out from works or by works of law, but by faith of Jesus Christ. Even we also believed in the name of Jesus, or believed in Jesus Christ that we might be justified or set forth as righteous through the faith of Christ and not by works of law. For by works of law shall no flesh be justified or set forth as righteous.
Isn't that contradictory to what most people teach?
The laws do do something, they do help you in your life. And when you read the Ten Commandments, I just read them the other day and I was like, this is kind of easy. You know what I mean? But when you read the Ten Commandments, it helps you in your walk through life. It cleans your life up.
There's a spiritual life that we are to live because the carnal nature is in direct opposition to the spiritual nature.
And this word is spiritual. So it's going to be in opposition to a lot of things the carnal mind wants to operate in. However, a man is not justified in God's eyes like before.
Before Christ came, you were justified by how closely you walk to the law. Now you're justified in the name of Jesus Christ by once you believe in the name of Jesus Christ, Romans 10, 9, and 10, that, you know what I'll actually go over if you go to romans, you chapter 10, verse 9, it says that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in thine heart, God raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved, made sound and preserved safe. For with the heart, man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation, safety or preservation.
Once you believe in the name of Jesus Christ, you are righteous in God's eyes. And if you go, I can show you again kind of where this is. If you go to First John, chapter three, verse 22, it says, and whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments and do those things that are pleasing in his sight. Now again, those 10 the laws were commandments of God. But listen to this verse, verse 23. And this is his commandment that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another and as he gave us commandment. And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us by the Holy Spirit or the new spiritual nature which he hath gave us all. The Ten Commandments are wrapped up in loving one another.
But the new commandment is believing in the name of His Son, Jesus Christ.
To be righteous in God's eyes is to believe in the name of His Son, Jesus Christ. It's not by your acts or your works, lest any man should boast.
It's by your believing. So if you're walking around today in condemnation, worried about what you're doing, you got to go to God, pray and let it go. You know what I mean? Change your course of action, but let it go.
God is gracious and merciful. He talks about this actively compassionate, and he's quick, quick to forgive the minute you know you do something wrong because it's written in your heart. You know when you shouldn't be doing something.
Go to God, give it to him, set it in his hands. And don't forget about all the other thoughts you're going to have today. If anything is causing you anxiety, we are not to be anxious for one thing. Put it in God's hands, give it to him and let it go. Watch God work, Watch God operate. Have faith and believing. He's going to take care of it. Because God will take care of each and every situation that you have in your life individually. It's not a blanket prayer of whatever. It's a prayer of personal need.
That's what he asks for. The wonderful, wonderful God that we have. Pray the big prayers today. Lift everything up in the name of Jesus Christ. Pray the small prayers with that sacrifice of thanksgiving. But when you pray, you always pray to God, never to Jesus Christ. You pray to God, it's scriptural, it's biblical. You 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.
Well, Heavenly Father, thank you so much
[00:06:47] Speaker B: for everything you're doing. I pray for again the work that needs to be done today and just simplifying everything so I can get through this and that it's a blessing to all those who work with us, but also to the customers who receive everything, that we get everything on time. I also pray that we can continue
[00:07:07] Speaker A: to grow and also manage growth.
[00:07:09] Speaker B: It's just ridiculous.
[00:07:10] Speaker A: I thank you so much for my
[00:07:11] Speaker B: brother, that you protected him, that he's here with us, and I just pray for his hand again, that you just continually work with that, that you get the.
Get every, get all the nerves back going. And I'm just thankful we can go to you in every situation. I thank you for the little ones, the kids, that you protect them. And I put the protection in your hand with all that. And I than you for just coming through for your believers over and over and over again.
And what your son did for us, that we can live this way.
[00:07:39] Speaker A: I lift up a great day to
[00:07:40] Speaker B: you in the name of my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus.
