[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'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. So I'm busy again. Slammed to the point where I'm waking up early and I can't stand when this happens, when I'm so busy that I start waking up just randomly and needing to go to work to get it off my. Get it off my mind. But again, in these times you got to go to God. And I was having a hard time this morning as I was laying in bed, just letting it go, giving it to God, putting it in his hands, knowing he's going to take care of this situation and moving on. And, and like I said, I got up as a result of it and decided to do this early. But in those times you got to go to God in every situation. He's going to come through and you can't waver in your mind. I was reading in James again and I'm going to go over pretty much exactly what I went over yesterday because it just is hitting right now. If you go to James, chapter one, verse one, James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ. To the 12 tribes which are scattered abroad. Greetings, my brethren. Count it all. Joy when ye fall into diverse temptations knowing this. And just so you know, temptations is actually the word trials or being tempted. And in a good sense it ascertains the character or your views or your feelings.
[00:01:37] It's to be put to the test, to put to a trial. But what's interesting is it's not from God, which I think is. Is wild. If you go down, I'll go over this. But it says, my brother, count it all. Joy when ye fall into divers temptations, knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience or patient enduring. But let patience have her perfect work in order that you may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
[00:02:02] If you're going through it, let it have its perfect work, let it have its time. Don't freak out in the middle of it.
[00:02:09] It's working on your, your. Your patient experience.
[00:02:14] When you get to the point where you're gone through trials and tribulations and you can sit there and, and be patient and endure patiently and know God's going to take care of it. Because the more you do that you get to a point where you have the expectation of future good hope which will never cause shame in those situations.
[00:02:36] Knowing this that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work in order that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God that giveth to all men liberally and abradeth not. And what I love about this abradeth is to suggest blame for anything.
[00:02:57] God doesn't put blame on you. And if you think about that in life, it's contradictory to what most people teach. Stand fast in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made you free. That's the freedom to go where one wants and be not entangled with the weight or yoke of bondage or servitude to the law.
[00:03:15] We have that freedom because Christ died for us. If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God that give it to all men liberally and abradeth or doesn't suggest blame for anything not and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. You have to be fixed not knowing that God's going to take care of it. But what I wanted to go over is this. This morning. If you jump down to verse 12. Blessed is the man that endureth temptation or the trials. For when he is tried he shall receive the crown of life which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. Verse 13. Let no man say when he is tempted or put put to the test. I am tempted of God. For God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he, any man.
[00:04:13] If you're thinking that God is putting you through the trial, that's not right. He's not tempting you. He doesn't. That's not in his arsenal of stuff. But what does it come from? Verse 14. But every man is tempted when he is drawn away of his own lust or sinful desire and entice. For when lust hath conceived, it bringeth for sin. And sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. Now this is a deeper concept. But you have to understand that the things that's working in your members, the senses, are in direct opposition to God and they lead towards the state of death.
[00:04:52] You have to get your mind into a spiritual sense. All things work together for good to those that love God. To those that are called according to purpose. Now, I might go into this a little bit more in the next couple days, but the point is, is that you got to go to God and not be shaken. You got to get to a point where it's okay. Like today I'm going to be pounding myself saying, let it go, God will provide. Let it go, God will provide. Because right now we're underwater too much to do and there's a lot of other things going on that's hurting the situation as well. But God will always come through and keep perspective on what's actually important in life.
[00:05:34] All things work together for good. To those that love God. To those that are called according to purpose. You are called. You are summoned before the foundations of the world. God knew you, you would believe.
[00:05:46] He knew it and it's wonderful to know those things. Have a phenomenal day today. Pray the big prayers and when you pray, you always pray to God. Pray the small prayers and when you do, you lift it up in the name of Jesus Christ. When you pray, it's always to God, never to Jesus Christ. It's biblical, it's always to God. Pray and he will take care of the situation and pray with that sacrifice of thanksgiving. Have a great day today. God bless you and your family. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
[00:06:15] And magnificently we will fold into the mist. Begin.
[00:06:22] Well, Heavenly Father, thank you so much man for everything that you're doing. I am very, very thankful for actually my golf game.
[00:06:30] I thank you that you, I don't know that you're coming through and what I asked for and although it's not the way I thought it was going to be, that it, I know it's the right thing. I thank you again for the business. I pray for everything that's happening, that we get this stuff out on time, the customers are blessed that, that you do something with those, those stumps, that you get rid of the cracks or do whatever needs to happen to get it, to get the inventory back in check and show me how to kind of manage that whole situation, including the new inventory that needs to be put in. Again, I thank you for the moments of my life, for my family. I pray for the situation with the people that are copying that you just shut that door and close that situation down. I thank you for the lawyer you provided and I just thank you for the moments of my life, for the little things, for the big things, for the kids, my brother, my sister in law, and for the rest of my family. And, yeah, I'm just very, very thankful for you and what your son did for us. I lift up a great day to you in the name of my Lord and savior Christ Jesus.
