And we have to be praying, like I said, it's a lot of stuff in this day and age that's going on, and we got to be prayerful about it. You got to be praying about your situation at your home. You got to be praying about your job. You got to be praying about your family. You got to be praying about people that you know, people that you don't know, things that's going on in the world. Hallelujah. God bless your holy name. That's why you have to keep your pastors in prayer. Cause they got so much on their heart and their mind. You gotta keep them lifted up. Amen. Hallelujah. God.

Amen. This is not the time to be fearful. This is not the time to be going backwards. It's so much stuff we got to do. Christians or warriors. Hallelujah. God. The devil is a liar. Amen. We don't have time to be scared. You might have something going on in your own body. That's a health scare. As I said it once, I said it a thousand times, cancer is not a death sentence. Hallelujah. God, there's nothing too hard for God. You got to pray, no matter what you have. I don't care what it is. Nothing is too hard for God. He's a healer. He's a keeper. You got to believe in what you're praying for. Hallelujah. God, bless your holy name, God. God is great. [00:08:32] God is great and greatly to be praised. Amen. Hallelujah. God. You got to continue to pray for these things. Like I said, there's a lot going on in this nation. We got people that are sick. We got people that are dying. You got teenagers out here getting guns and killing people and doing all kinds of foolishness. They shooting at the police. If they shooting at the police, what do you think they think about you and I that don't wear a badge and uniform like that? Amen. You got to be prayerful. Hallelujah. Guys. [00:08:59] There's no respect for the law. There's no respect for adults. We are living in some turbulent times right now. It's turbulence, like I say, when you, if you ever flew on airplane and it shakes a little bit depending on where you're going and what you're doing and whatnot, the plane shape, that's called turbulence. We're living in turbulent times right now. Amen. But nevertheless, God is still in control. I am not scared. I will keep praying. I'm a child of the most high God. I'm encouraging you to keep doing so. God don't have no weaklings in his army. Amen. Hallelujah. God. As a matter of fact, I'm going to go all the way to first Samuel about something, about David and Goliath when it talks about not having the spirit of fear. Amen. In the book of first Samuel in the 17th verse, everybody, I ain't going to say, everybody knows that some people might not know about the story of David and Goliath. Amen. Hey, Nate. How you doing, young man? As my deacon in training the future preacher there. Amen. Thank you for tuning in, young man. The cameraman at the church, the it man, him and his brother king David, before he was a king, fought the big nine foot tall giant. And obviously, according to this David, well, he made everybody look small. David probably wasn't the biggest man in the world, but I know one thing. David was not afraid to fight a nine foot man. Amen. David was not afraid to fight a five or a nine foot man. Amen. Hallelujah. And the giant name was Goliath. David did not have the spirit of fear. They was going back and forth with some words. Amen. And I'm going to tell you a couple of words, what they were saying. Amen. When you look at first Samuel, I just say, started off in the 45th chapter. [00:10:45] Well, let's say now, david said, now, this man, one man, had a whole army of men running scared. Hallelujah, God. One man had a whole army running, including King Saul. King Saul was the king during this time, and he was with the army. And they were running from one man. Hallelujah, God. I mean, you got to read that story in the book of first Samuel, and you'll see all of this type of stuff. They were scared out of their wits. They were scared to death. Amen. And then here comes the future king, King David. [00:11:18] He comes out there, I'm cutting through a whole lot to cut it short. And the giant Goliath came close to David, and he was talking to David, and he told David, he said that I am a dog. He said that you come to me with sticks. And the Philistine cursed David by his gods. And the Philistines said to David, come to me. I will give your flesh to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field. So he telling David, you come over here, I'm going to kill you. The birds going to be pecking your eyes out and eating the flesh, and the beast from the field is going to come out and going to be eating your body and all of that type of stuff. Well, well, well, guess what David said then David said to the Philistine, talking about the giant, the nine foot giant, David said, you come with a sword and a spear and a javelin, but I come in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, who you defied. Hallelujah, God. He said, this is what David told him now, he said, this day the Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. In King James version, he said, I will smite you, and I'm going to take your head from you. And the way how we speak, david said, I'm going to kill you, and then I'm going to cut your head off. That's exactly what David told a nine foot man. That's what David told him. So David had no fear of him. He said he came in the name of the Lord. That's all the protection that he needed. He didn't have a gang of guys behind him. He didn't have his friends. He didn't have an army. He came by himself. And he said, I come in the name of the Lord. [00:13:00] That's who I come with. And he said, I'm going to kill you and I'm going to cut your head off. My God, my God. [00:13:10] And that's exactly what he did. And it said, this day, I got to say it again. The Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this day I will give your carcasses to the field and the birds of the air. Hallelujah. God. And the beasts of the earth and all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. [00:13:33] No fear. Because God doesn't give us the spirit of fear. Hallelujah. God. That means if there's a sickness in your body, you should have no fear. Hallelujah. God. If you working hard on your job and for whatever reason your job shuts down and you think that goes your source of income, you should have no fear. Hallelujah. God. The devil is a liar. There is no fear because I know what the devil go say. What you gonna do now? You're already behind on your bills or how you gonna continue to pay this? You just got a new car, you just bought a new house, you just had a newborn baby. How you gonna pay for them pampers and all that? No fear. [00:14:08] Cause the Lord, the Bible says he gives us the spirit of power, love and of a sound mind. That's what he gives us. Not fear. Hallelujah. There should be no fear when it comes to spiritual things. Hallelujah. God. Bless your holy name. That word is not in there for nothing. [00:14:29] My God. No fear. Well, I'm sorry, brother so and so, mister so and oh, you've been diagnosed with cancer and nothing is too hard for God. Bless your holy name, God. Nothing is too hard for God. No fear. [00:14:46] Ah, this thing saying slow connection. Please bear with me if we having some issues going on. No fear. Hallelujah, God. That's second Samuel. That's first Samuel in the 17th chapter talking about David and Goliath and the one thing that I wanted to write and it says now. And after David said that, it says so. It was the philistine arose and came and drew near to meet David. So Goliath came toward David. What do you think David did? [00:15:17] Let's say a, did David just stand still? B, the David run backwards or C, did David ran at it? What you think David did? Hallelujah, God. They say then. So then the Philistine arose and came and draw near to meet David. And David hurried and ran toward the army to meet the Philistines. [00:15:40] He ran toward him. He didn't walk, he didn't jog. He ran at him because he wasn't scared. No fear. Hallelujah, God. You talking about some little man, probably five foot something against a nine foot man. And some change. Matter of fact, Zaliji was dirty, 10ft tall. He was nine foot in some change. Almost 9ft, nine inches. If I'm mistaken. It describes how big he is. When it talks about the cubits and the span. Then you got to know about how the cubits is, the feet and the span, the inches and all of that type of stuff. He ran toward it. That's what you got to do. Hallelujah, God. [00:16:18] You can't be running from the devil. The devil been trying to jack me up with stuff. The devil come at you, get your finances, but you got to have no fear. You got to have faith and belief. Hallelujah, God. I'm a witness to it. [00:16:32] I'm a witness. But I'm still here. The enemy been attacking my finances for years. Soon as I get paid, they got to go out on bills, bills, bills, bills. Can't go to this place. Can't go to this place. Can't buy this place. Can't buy this thing. Can't do what I want to do. Because it all going to the man with bills. Hallelujah, God. [00:16:52] And it's aggravating and it's frustrating. I haven't been there. I know what it's like. You're praying and it seemed like it just bouncing off the ceiling. Back on top of your head. Lord, do you hear me? I'm asking to get out of debt. I'm asking for you to open up a door and make a way. [00:17:07] I could have easily folded up my tent and just said, bump all of this. I'm going back out into the street. Y'all can have it. [00:17:16] My flesh wanted to do that. [00:17:18] My flesh wanted to do that. Thank you, Brian McKnight. Thank you, teammate, or a classmate for tuning in. Amen, Sister Garmin. God bless each and every last one of you. Sister Maya, thank you for tuning in. Sister crystal. Denise, God bless you. [00:17:32] I wanted the full tent. I wanted to stop. [00:17:36] It was bothering me something terrible. [00:17:39] Even my pastor might be even shocked to know about certain things. Even my wife. Baby, what's wrong with you? I mean, my head hurt. I think I'm even worried about. I might even mess around and have an aneurysm or something. All these darn bills just keep coming. Bills, bills. Like we just can't get no break. It don't make no sense how all of this stuff. I'm sitting here praising God, I'm magnifying God. I'm doing this and that. And every time we get paid, every 14 days, every two weeks, we kicking out to the man, and we still up the dead in our eyeballs. Hallelujah. God. But oh, my God, one day, my God, one day, one when you least expect it. Because I kept coming to church. I kept preaching. I kept sitting in this chair, and I kept teaching. I kept living holy at the house. I kept living holy on my job. I kept living holy everywhere that I go. Hallelujah. God kept on listening to the prophesies that's been prophesied. I just kept on going. Hallelujah, God. Keep telling the devil that he is a liar. I'm a child of the most high God. Hallelujah, God. The Bible says, I am who I am. I know I'm a man of God. I'm a righteous man of God. I'm a holy man of God. God is going to open up a door and he's going make a way. I am the head and not the tail. I, hallelujah, God am the lender and not the borrower. I can be in debt up to my eyeballs. I am the lender and not the borrower. I'm blessed coming in and blessed coming out. You got to continue to tell yourself this stuff. Oh, but one day, one day, yes, he is a liar. [00:19:05] I mess around and check that mailbox. You hear me? Oh, my God. [00:19:11] My God. All I say is, God is great. [00:19:16] God is great. God is great. [00:19:20] Faithfulness. Hallelujah, God, the word of God says, without faith is impossible to please him. [00:19:28] That's what the word says. [00:19:30] Without faith, it's impossible to please him. Hallelujah, God bless your holy name. [00:19:36] You got to keep on. You got to keep believing. You got to keep pushing. You got to keep 1ft in front of the other. You got to keep going. You got to keep praising. You got to keep magnifying if tears come in your eyes. Late nights. Hallelujah, God. You got to keep praying. You hear what the woman of God said? The just shall live by faith. That's the word. Hallelujah, God. And that's what you got to do. God is faithful. [00:20:03] He is a diligent rewarder of those who diligently seek him. He's a rewarder of those who diligently seek him. You got to continue to seek him diligently, faithfully. Believe what you're praying in. [00:20:16] My God, one day. Hallelujah, God. [00:20:20] God came through. [00:20:22] You know the old song. He may not come when you want him, but he'll be there right on time. He's an on time God. Yes, he is. Hallelujah, God. He's an old time God. Bless your holy name now. Bless your holy name. Now I tell you what, the deep freezer is full, and it's gonna stay full. Hallelujah, God. Because one time before, it wasn't too full. We was eating. We weren't hungry, we weren't starving. But I know one thing, that deep freezer full now. Hallelujah, God, bless your holy name. God is great and greatly to be praised because he's an on time God. Yes, he is. Y'all know that song. Hallelujah, God. [00:21:07] He may not come when I wanted him 1015 years ago, but he's here. He came when I needed him. Hallelujah, God. [00:21:16] I'm gonna make one little small testimony that a lot of people don't even know about, and I ain't ashamed to say it. [00:21:25] Then people call me about my darn car, and you got one more payment to miss, and we coming to snatching it from you. But like I said, one day. Check the mailbox. [00:21:37] Hallelujah, God. My God, bless your holy name. God is an on time God. Yes, he is them car people ain't called me for a long time. Paid them in full and whatnot payments. I'm paying them before, ahead of time now, before the due date, because I got it to do that now. Hallelujah, God, amen, God is an all time God. Amen. Hallelujah, God. He does not give us the spirit of fear. [00:22:05] You got to keep praying. You got to keep pushing. You got to keep magnifying. God you got to keep lifting them up. You got to keep telling people how great God is in spite of your situation. Hallelujah. Things might not be going good for you. Hallelujah. But somebody's rejoicing. Somebody's happy somewhere. Everybody's not miserable. Everybody's not doom and gloom. I get in my flesh, I get upset. I get discouraged. Hallelujah, God. Because I was wondering, I said, where, God? Where is my help coming? Or when is it coming now? [00:22:35] All these years of faithfulness, every time I look on social media, somebody going somewhere, somebody going to Las Vegas, somebody going to the Bahamas, somebody going to Jamaica, somebody going somewhere I like, well, God, leave. Must be nice, man. [00:22:52] When am I gonna be able to go somewhere? And I know all y'all saying, wait a minute. October, you went to the Bahamas? Yeah, I went to Bahamas. Out before a wedding. It wasn't like it was something that me and my wife planned that we going to Bahamas next year, and we go be chilling on the boat and all that. Man, please. Anyway, y'all don't even know the story behind that. It's not as gracious as you might think it is. But never mind. We made it out there and back. So when people. It ain't what you think it is. I'm telling you now. Amen. Hallelujah. God bless your holy name. [00:23:22] Now, if I want to go to the Muhammad's now on my own dime and all of that type of stuff, me and my wife and go if we want to go, but, you know, we choosing to do some smart stuff right now, so we're trying to take care of some other things. Amen. Because God is great. Amen. And I'm going to be a good steward of what he has given me. Amen. Hallelujah, God. Hallelujah. Bless your holy name. Because that's what God is raising up. Remember, like I said, of love and of power and of a sound mind. Be good steward. With whatever God give you. Be a good steward. Don't blow it on stupid stuff. Hallelujah. God, bless your holy name. God, be a good steward. Be faithful and dedicated. Pastor says something Sunday in her word. My God, that woman preached Sunday. You hear me, pastor? Lost her ever loving mind Sunday, preaching that word. Hallelujah, God. The spirit just took completely over. Hallelujah. God, bless your holy name. Amen. Confident. Be bold and confident and courageous. Hallelujah, God. Pastor was basically talking on that, and I wrote somewhere down at the bottom of that page, faith over fear. God's soldiers don't retreat. They push forward. I wrote that while she was preaching. Hallelujah, God. I said, boy, this sounds like something I could talk about Wednesday. Hallelujah, God. I can be getting stuff out of the message that she gave. Hallelujah, God. But see, she said something. She came out, and I love this in two corinthians in the fourth chapter, bless your holy name, God. When she was saying, and I always love reading because, see, we as christians, it says that we are hard pressed or perplexed on every side. Hallelujah. We're hard pressed on every side, but yet not crushed. Hallelujah, God. We are perplexed but not in despair. Persecuted but not forsaken. Struck down but not destroyed. That's us. Hallelujah, God. You will take some hits. Y'all know what they used to say about the Timex? What do you say about the time act what it takes a what? And keep on what you know. That's us. Hallelujah, God. Because that devil go do all that he can to shoot. Hallelujah. The devil go do all that he can to take you out, devil. My man, mighty Mike Johnson, man. God bless you. Thank you for tuning in, mighty Mike. That devil go do all that he can to dog on hit you and take you down and discourage you. Amen. You got to have on that armor of God. I told you that. That helmet, that helmet of salvation. The breastplate of righteousness. Hallelujah, God. Your sword, which is the word of God. Hallelujah. See, this is your sword. This is what you cutting the devil's head off with. Hallelujah. Them demons that he be sending after your sword, hallelujah. Your field, your faith, that faith that I was talking about, it said without faith it's impossible to please him. That's your shield. You got your sword and your shield and your hand. Hallelujah, God. Well, I ain't got no sword right now, but see, I got, I keep my knight. You got, you got your shield and you got your sword in hand, boy. You ready? You ready to fight? Hallelujah, God bless your holy name. Because the word of God said the battle is not yours, it's mine. I'm fighting them with faith. I'm fighting them with scriptures. I'm fighting them with belief. That's what I'm fighting the enemy with. Hallelujah, God. I heard years ago, Bishop TD Jake said years ago, amen. Don't get in the ring with the devil. Don't get in the ring. But what you do, you stand outside the ring, you throw them scriptures in there at him. Because remember what Jesus said to him? He said, it is written. [00:26:34] That's what he said. He didn't physically pick the devil up and body slam him. He said, it is written. You put the word on the enemy. That's what you do to them. That's why you got to have that word in your heart. Greater is he that's within me than he that's in the world. Hallelujah, God. I am the head and not the tail. And that's what you got to let them know. I am blessed to God. No weapon formed against me. Weapons may form, but they will not prosper. You can put that gun at me all you want to, devil, but that bullet is not. It's not going to penetrate because I have on the arm of God. It might just even backfire your face. Hallelujah, God. I get excited about the word of God. Hallelujah, God bless your name, Jesus. [00:27:18] Your sword, your shield, your belt of truth, your shoes of peace. Hallelujah, God bless your name. Kirk, big brother. What's going on, man? The original Og from Hickory Ridge. What it do? Thank you for tuning in, brother. [00:27:35] That's what God is all about, baby. You got to have that faith. No fear. Like I said, we're pressed, but we're not crushed. We're not a despair, we're not destroyed. [00:27:46] Like I said about the old timek watch, we know what it keeps doing. Hallelujah, God. It takes and what it keep doing. It says it takes a licking, but what it don't stop, it keeps on ticking. Hallelujah. That was a slogan of Timex watch back in the day. They don't even run that commercial no more. That was back in the day. Hallelujah, God. [00:28:04] But you got to keep pushing. Amen. Faith over fear. Amen. Because you know that many of us maybe have heard the acronym amen for fear. Fear. Many of you heard it, this ain't nothing new. And some may have heard, haven't heard it yet. But it says, you know, you can either do two things with fear. [00:28:23] You can forget everything and run. Fear, forget everything and run. That's fear. Or you can face everything and rise. Hallelujah, God. I choose to rise up. Bless your holy name. It said that David ran toward the enemy. David ran at Goliath because he wasn't scared of him. Hallelujah, God. Don't be scared of your enemy. Whatever your thing. Remember the song with thing Donald Lawrence had some years ago? Giants, they fall. The bigger they are, the harder they fall. Giants. Well, I played that in my car, Lou. Man, you will pump that bad boy and you will be bumping to that. Because giants, they gotta calm down. Oh, man, they gotta calm down. Giants. But if y'all ain't heard that in a while, that'll get you excited. Giants, they gotta come down. The bigger they are, the harder they fall. That saying been out before I was even born. [00:29:18] Giants, they gotta come down. What's a giant in your life? Debt lack. Not enough. [00:29:25] A sickness finance. Hallelujah. God, that can be a giant in your life, but it got to come down. [00:29:32] It's not going to stay there. Storms don't last always. This too shall pass. Hallelujah. God. Have them scriptures in your heart. You put the word on it. And when something is not going right, spiritually, put the word on it. If you sleep in your bed and you cannot sleep, you toss it and you turn it while you up, you might as well start praying. [00:29:53] You up now. You can't sleep. Might be a reason why you're not sleeping. There you go, sis. You know, that's my pet peeve by that. Forgiveness. I got something else, too, that I wanted to get on. Amen. And before I get ready to close that. Now, I ain't gonna lie now, Brother Kirk, I got this from Bishop Eric Davis. I heard this on the radio, son. That Bishop Eric. Good Lord. Another Og. Old og from the neighborhood. He's a man of God, Bishop Davis, from word of truth. See, he was saying something, see, romans eight and 28. And see, I want to do this because, see, you got to know who you are in Christ. You got to know who you are in Christ. Romans eight and 28. He said a key word, that. Man, I ain't even thought nothing about it all the years that I read it. And it's one word and it's t h e. It's the. Now I know y'all what you mean by the. Now we know that all things work together for the good, for those who love God, to those who are the called according to his purpose. See, I just. See, I just ran over it. Y'all ain't. See, it says, see, that's another thing. When I be praying with my wife every morning before I go to work. That's one of the scriptures. I say, I might not say it every day, but about five or four times a week, I say this right here, romans eight and 28. For I say, and we know that all things work together for good for those who love God. And I say, and we love you, God. My wife and I, we love you. It said things work for the good for those who love God. And right after that it said to those who are not called according to his purpose, it said the called, who is the called? And man, the examples that he used. My goodness, I wish I could take credit for it, but I can't. You see, it resonated with me when he said the call and the example that I see because you could talk a good game. But are you called by God? Hallelujah, God. You can say some things, but are you called by God? Amen. To be honest with you, the sister just reminded me when she said unforgiveness. Thank you, sister Galman. You reminded me of something right there. Because, see, if you are the called, see, when people didn't done you wrong, when people didn't lied on you, when they didn't cheated on you, when they done stole from you, you want to just do away with them. Hallelujah, God. But the word of God tells me I still got to pray for them. [00:32:06] I still got to love them. Hallelujah, God. Only the called will do so. Hallelujah, God. Those that are not called, you just want to clap back and whatnot. You don't have no forgiveness in your heart. Wrestling with unforgiveness. But like I said, if you're wrestling with it, keep praying to God to put some forgiveness in your heart. [00:32:25] That's the one thing that's going to keep a lot of people out of heaven. Because you don't want to forgive somebody. Oh, my God. I can go into that for a little while. But what he was saying is the call. Everybody who knows me personally, that goes to church with me, that works with me, that grew up with me. Everybody knows who my favorite professional football team is. Y'all know my lakers, even though they out of it. I'm a Laker man. I'm a cowboys man. Everybody knows that. Chop chop, Chico. Chico. What up, boy? Thank you for tuning in. Everybody knows I'm a die hard Dallas Cowboy fan. But see, that's the thing. I'm a fan, but I'm not on the team. [00:33:00] I wouldn't call to be on. I'm not on the team. I don't know where the playbook is. See this right here? This is the playbook. Are you on God's team? The holy bot? Do you know the playbook? Hallelujah. I don't know the playbook of the Dallas Cowboys or whatever your football team is. A basketball. Whatever your team is, you don't know the playbook. I can wear the jersey. I can holiday name. I can scream their name for no rooftop. But I'm not on the team. Hallelujah, God. I don't know nothing about that. Amen. Same thing with the spiritual. Amen. You can talk a good game, but are you on the team? Are you one of God's disciples now? Are you showing love to those who don't love you? Do you do not mind giving and say, God loves a cheerful giving? Are you giving with a grudge in your heart? Are you giving cheerfully? Hallelujah, God. What kind of giving are you giving? Amen. Hallelujah, God. Hey there, baby. God bless you, Bishop Robinson. Amen. Bruce Robinson. God bless you, mighty man of God. Good man of God. There. [00:33:57] Are you on the team? I'm not on the team. [00:34:01] I'm not caught. That's not my thing. But the point is, if you go talk a good game, are you showing love to people who don't love you? Are you forgiving those that be mean and despitefully use you? [00:34:12] Hallelujah. Don't you let one person or a group of people or a race of people or whomever keep you out from, keep you out of heaven. Judgment Day is coming. [00:34:20] Judgment day is coming. [00:34:22] Hallelujah. God. Classmate Reggie Nixon. God bless you, man. Thank you for tuning in, man. Judgment Day is coming. [00:34:31] You got to have forgiveness in your heart. [00:34:34] You call yourself a child of God. If you call yourself a child, are you really and truly a child of the most high God? There's other factors we see. Those are some of the big things right there that people have so much of a hard time with. Is that forgiveness? [00:34:47] You got to get that forgiveness out of your heart, that unforgiveness. You got to. You got to stop that foolishness. I ain't said it's easy. Somebody do you wrong, they steal from you, they lie on you, they cheat you. You human, I get in the flesh. You get mad when people do you wrong. People take advantage of christians. They think we're weak. They think we're slow, but we far from it. [00:35:08] God knew what he was doing when he chose you. That's why everybody's not chosen. Everybody's not gonna make it into heaven as soon as everybody died. We talk about they looking down on some. That's not the case. [00:35:18] Everybody's not looking down, as we say, because everybody ain't gonna make it in. [00:35:23] Hallelujah, God, what kind of lifestyle did they leave before they close their eyes for the final time? See, that's some hard stuff that people don't want. That's reality. That's real and that's raw. [00:35:34] My God. I might talk about this some other time. Amen. Hallelujah, God. There you go, mighty Mike. The playbook, baby. Michael's a die hard cowboy fan, but he ain't on the team. [00:35:46] He ain't on the team. He can wear the jersey, but he not on the team. [00:35:51] I got jerseys, but I ain't on the team. [00:35:55] You are here talking to your game. That you love Jesus. Really? Then prove it. Show it. Because God knows your heart. You might get fooled me, but you can't fool him. [00:36:04] You can't fool him. [00:36:07] He knows you. [00:36:09] I told you, he knows your thought before you even think it. He knows it. It's in the Bible. It tells you that. He said he knows your thought afar off. So by the time you think it, he didn't already knew about it. [00:36:20] That's why you can't get nothing past God. [00:36:23] He already knew about it. [00:36:26] He knows what's in your heart. [00:36:29] Bless you, Sister Denise. He knows what's in your heart. [00:36:34] Sister Crystal. God bless you, deaconess. Thank you for tuning in. Erica the dog lover. Amen. [00:36:41] God knows what's in your heart so you can't fool him. [00:36:46] But I just wanted to put that out there about those of the called according to his purpose. The called. Hallelujah, God. That's why I say the true worshipers worship him in spirit and in truth. The true worshipers. [00:37:03] I know, sweetie. I know. I know. Sister Galman, that's somebody take a loved one from you through violence, death and stuff like that. You lose a loved one, that somebody then took their life and all of that. I'm not fussing at you. I'm not doing. I know that's hard. All I'm saying is, oh, honey, please, with everything you got, continue to ask God for. Forget I know. Nobody say you got to have lunch with the man. Nobody say you got to go visit him in jail or whatever, or wherever he may be and whatnot. I know. I get it when I say I get it, I truly and really do. Amen. Continue to ask God to help you with that. I know you're working on it. I know we talked about that before. Continue to work on that. And you ain't the only one, sis. It's a lot of them. It's a lot of them out there that's dealing with stuff like that. For whatever the case may be, somebody has taken a look. We look on the news every day and see what somebody, when a life has been taken by somebody else that's been cut short. And I'm not, that's not easy at all. I'm not saying you better forget. I'm pray, ask God to help you with that. That's not easy when you lose a loved one like that. And that's with anybody dealing with anything forgiven, that, that's a hard pill to swallow. But as a child of God, we have to forgive these people. Do not let the enemy not just sit the garbage. Anybody on here. Now don't let the enemy fool you. Say, well, God knows my heart. He know it. Yes, God knows your heart. He put it in there. He know it. He know it. He does know it. [00:38:38] But don't use that for an excuse. Anybody on this line tonight or whoever sees us tomorrow or the next day to say that I can't forgive that individual, but God knows me. I know. [00:38:50] Continue to work on that. And that's what anybody on here, on this line on tonight. [00:38:55] Forgiveness. Forgiveness is not easy when you've been hurt, when you've been scarred, when you've been cut deep. [00:39:03] Lies, stealing, cheating, that hurts when somebody didn't cheat you out, some money that you trust, that you thought you could depend on, somebody lied on you, somebody who you love or you thought that was your friend, or whatever the case may be. Somebody takes out a loved one or whatever the case may be. Some people even get mad at God for taking out a loved one because they wanted their mother, their father, whomever. [00:39:28] But you're still here. If God was petty, he wouldn't have took you out by now. [00:39:33] Because God is not petty. We are as people, we're petty. We'll hold a grudge. We won't forgive all these people that don't, that say there is no God. All these people that's doing things against God's word. Homosexuals are having sex with each other. Men with men, women and women. And still, yet God is waking them up every morning. Still yet they're not dying in the bed or wherever they just did. They un sinful act. Fornicators, men cheating on wives, wives cheating on husband. They didn't die right there. But whoever they mistress is, they still went back to their homes and still woke up in the morning. Because God is a forgiving God. He's giving you a chance to repent. But if you mess around and God decide to cut your life short and you close your eyes for the final time, then you have just died in sin. [00:40:26] So that's something to think about. When it comes to unforgiveness whenever your time is because we don't know when our last day on this earth is. As we say, tomorrow is not promised to end. This evening is not promised all the way. [00:40:41] You never know. [00:40:43] Get right with God. Ask God to help you. [00:40:48] Forgiveness. In my heart, that's what you need, Father. God, help me to forgive this individual or these people or whatever the case may be, white people, foreigners, whomever. Get that mess out your heart. [00:41:02] Get that stuff out of your heart. [00:41:06] God does not give us the spirit of fear. Big Willie, I ain't see you on there. Big Willy Lewis or we go back a long way. Elementary school, my dog, right there. [00:41:15] Way back. [00:41:18] God has not given us the spirit of fear. [00:41:21] Second Timothy, one and seven. [00:41:24] But of love, of a power and of a sound mind. He gives you power, not fear. Use that power. Use it. Hallelujah. God, use that power. Use your sound mind that God has given you. Hallelujah. God love. He giving you the spirit of love. [00:41:43] You got to love those who don't love you. And that's the problem that a lot of people have. And that's the reason why a lot of people not going to make it in on judgment day, but they don't want to show love to people who don't love you. It's hard for you to love a racist bigot in it and somebody who can care less about you that just hates you for the color of your skin. I'm not saying you got to go out and try and have lunch with the person or do whatever, but in your heart sometimes you have got to love that individual. Pray for them that God will take that from. There have been plenty of races that have been reformed that love you just probably more than some of your own people do. Plenty of them. Every race is just not born and racist and die races. Plenty of them has been turned. Hallelujah through God. Hallelujah. God, through the love. Hallelujah. Bless your name. I'm getting ready to end. But y'all remember that all you old school is some of you youngsters. Well, I got old schoolers on the line. Look like y'all remember that episode on the Jeffersons, that episode where j, uh, George gave mouth the mouth to that, to that klansmen. Y'all remember that, that one and whatnot. We'd have seen it a hundred times. And he didn't want to do it at first, but he got on there, he gave him some breaths, brought him back to life. And remember when his son said, this is the man. And he said, he said, he saved me. He told his son, you should have let me die. And you heard the crowd go, oh. And George said, see, that they'll never learn. But the point is, he put his. Even though it's a tv show, I'm sure something like this has probably happened in real life somewhere. He put his racist beliefs to the side and all of that, his hatred, and he saved that racist man's life. And that racist man still yet said, you should have let me die. Because he mad at another black man. Not only helped him because he put his lips on him and all of that. Now, think about it. Yeah, that's a tv show. But a lot of times, in many cases, I'm sure that people of color has helped another race, and their person of the other race was very ungrateful. [00:43:35] I can't imagine that. I don't know how I would feel or react, but I pray in a situation like that that God would help me to overcome that. Because we are overcomers. The word says, so Jesus said, I've overcome the world, and you will, too. The world hated me before it hated you. I said, oh, my God. And that's Jesus. So, Jesus, like, what you got? What you doing out here hating folks? I overcame it. You can, too. God said, forgive them, for they know not what they do. [00:44:00] We got to forgive. We got to be overcomers. The word says so. The word says, we are overcomers. And remember, Jesus said, how can I forgive you if you don't forgive them? I know y'all heard me say this a hundred. And I will continue to say it as like Reverend Al Sharpton say, I'm gonna continue to beat the drum. I'm continuing to beat the drum on that. [00:44:18] How can I forgive you if you don't forgive them? And that's what Jesus said. Hey, baby. Amen. My queen has made it in. Amen. Hallelujah, God. Like I said, we got some work going on outside that's getting done. But God bless each and every last one of you for tuning in. I pray that this message has really sunk in, and it helped somebody to know that you are a powerful being. There's nothing weak about you. There's nothing sad about you. You are a man of God. You are a woman of God. You are a child of God. If you have not given your life to Christ, do so today. Just ask God for forgiveness, and I accept you as my lord and savior. In Jesus holy name. Amen. I accept you. I believe in my heart that you are the son of God. Jesus and I accept you as my lord and savior. It don't cost no money. It's free. Confess. Confess with your mouth and believe in your heart and you shall be saved. Hallelujah. God bless your holy name. There's so much more that I would love to talk to, and I'll continue to do so when it's my turn again in a couple of weeks and whatnot. But, you know, I got to make sure there can't nothing be sugar coated. I got to make sure that this word is getting across. It got to be raw and uncut. Amen. Let us go into a word of prayer and let us get ready to close out so you can enjoy the rest of your Wednesday evening. Let us pray. Father God. In the mighty name of Jesus, bless your holy name, God.

Burn it down to the root. Cast it to the dry places where it may dwell in wonder. In Jesus holy name, God. Whatever it is you're struggling with, ask God to take it from you. In the mighty name of Jesus. Nothing is too hard for God. He even asked that question. He said, is anything too hard? He even asked that. Hallelujah. God. God. There's nothing too hard for God. In Jesus holy name, he can do it. You got to want it to be done. And he can do it. He can help you with it. Lord, we bless your holy name.
