  You've

  built
• 0:38
  a
• 0:38
  strong
• 0:38
  financial
• 0:39
  plan,
• 0:40
  you've
• 0:40
  budgeted,
• 0:40
  you've
• 0:41
  saved,
• 0:41
  and
• 0:41
  yes,
• 0:42
  you've
• 0:42
  tithed.
• 0:44
  But
• 0:44
  still
• 0:44
  there's
• 0:45
  this
• 0:45
  whisper
• 0:45
  of
• 0:46
  fear.
• 0:48
  What
• 0:48
  if
• 0:48
  it
• 0:48
  isn't
• 0:48
  enough?
• 0:49
  But
• 0:49
  here's
• 0:50
  the
• 0:50
  truth.
• 0:50
  Your
• 0:50
  peace
• 0:50
  isn't
• 0:51
  in
• 0:51
  numbers.
• 0:53
  It's
• 0:53
  in
• 0:53
  Jesus.
• 0:54
  So
• 0:54
  stick
• 0:54
  with
• 0:54
  me,
• 0:54
  because
• 0:54
  today
• 0:55
  we're

  your

  confidence

  where
• 0:57
  it

  truly
• 0:57
  belongs.
• 0:59
  This

  is

  Financially

  to
• 1:06
  help
• 1:06
  you
• 1:06
  break
• 1:06
  the
• 1:06
  cycle
• 1:07
  of
• 1:07
  financial
• 1:07
  shame
• 1:08
  with
• 1:08
  confidence.
• 1:10
  Hey
• 1:10
  there,
• 1:11
  friend.
• 1:11
  Welcome
• 1:11
  back
• 1:12
  to
• 1:12
  Financially
• 1:12
  Confident
• 1:13
  Christian.
• 1:13
  I'm
• 1:14
  Ralph.
• 1:14
  And
• 1:14
  it's
• 1:14
  always
• 1:14
  an
• 1:15
  honor
• 1:15
  to
• 1:15
  be
• 1:15
  with
• 1:15
  you
• 1:16
  again
• 1:16
  today
• 1:16
  on
• 1:16
  the
• 1:17
  show.
• 1:17
  As
• 1:18
  you
• 1:18
  know,
• 1:18
  this
• 1:18
  is
• 1:18
  the
• 1:18
  show
• 1:19
  all
• 1:19
  about
• 1:19
  helping
• 1:19
  you
• 1:20
  answer
• 1:20
  one
• 1:21
  transformative
• 1:21
  question.
• 1:22
  And
• 1:22
  that
• 1:23
  question
• 1:23
  is
• 1:23
  this.
• 1:24
  How
• 1:24
  can
• 1:24
  I
• 1:25
  become
• 1:25
  a
• 1:25
  financially
• 1:26
  confident
• 1:26
  Christian?
• 1:27
  And
• 1:28
  we're
• 1:28
  in
• 1:28
  the
• 1:28
  final
• 1:28
  stretch
• 1:29
  of
• 1:29
  our
• 1:29
  beyond
• 1:29
  the
• 1:29
  Budget
• 1:30
  series,
• 1:30
  living
• 1:30
  intentionality
• 1:31
  in
• 1:32
  our
• 1:32
  life.
• 1:33
  Now,
• 1:33
  yesterday
• 1:33
  we
• 1:34
  explored
• 1:34
  the
• 1:34
  joy
• 1:34
  of
• 1:35
  simplicity
• 1:36
  and
• 1:36
  finding
• 1:36
  peace
• 1:37
  without
• 1:37
  spending.
• 1:38
  I'm
• 1:38
  encouraging,
• 1:38
  if
• 1:39
  you
• 1:39
  missed
• 1:39
  it,
• 1:39
  go
• 1:40
  check
• 1:40
  it
• 1:40
  out
• 1:40
  because
• 1:40
  I
• 1:41
  really
• 1:41
  thought
• 1:41
  that
• 1:41
  was
• 1:42
  an
• 1:42
  impactful
• 1:42
  show.
• 1:43
  And
• 1:43
  today
• 1:44
  we're
• 1:44
  going
• 1:44
  to
• 1:44
  bring
• 1:44
  it
• 1:45
  all
• 1:45
  together
• 1:46
  with
• 1:46
  a
• 1:46
  foundational
• 1:47
  truth.
• 1:49
  Your
• 1:49
  deepest
• 1:50
  financial
• 1:50
  confidence
• 1:51
  is
• 1:51
  found
• 1:51
  in
• 1:52
  Christ,
• 1:53
  not
• 1:53
  cash.
• 1:56
  You're
• 1:56
  doing
• 1:56
  the
• 1:56
  right
• 1:56
  things.
• 1:58
  You're
• 1:58
  budgeting,
• 1:59
  you're
• 2:00
  giving,
• 2:01
  you're
• 2:01
  building
• 2:01
  a
• 2:02
  financial
• 2:02
  foundation.
• 2:04
  But
• 2:05
  then
• 2:05
  a
• 2:05
  headline
• 2:05
  shakes
• 2:06
  you,
• 2:07
  an
• 2:07
  unexpected
• 2:08
  bill
• 2:08
  arrives,
• 2:10
  a
• 2:10
  job.
• 2:10
  Concern
• 2:11
  creeps
• 2:11
  in,
• 2:11
  and
• 2:12
  suddenly
• 2:12
  your
• 2:12
  confidence
• 2:13
  feels
• 2:13
  fragile
• 2:15
  and
• 2:15
  you
• 2:15
  start
• 2:15
  to
• 2:16
  wonder,
• 2:17
  have
• 2:17
  I
• 2:17
  really
• 2:17
  done
• 2:18
  enough?
• 2:20
  And
• 2:20
  if
• 2:20
  you're
• 2:20
  honest
• 2:21
  with
• 2:21
  yourself,
• 2:21
  perfectionism
• 2:22
  kicks
• 2:23
  in.
• 2:23
  And
• 2:24
  right
• 2:24
  after
• 2:24
  that,
• 2:25
  fear
• 2:25
  follows
• 2:27
  and
• 2:27
  peace
• 2:28
  just
• 2:28
  absolutely
• 2:29
  slips
• 2:29
  away.
• 2:31
  But
• 2:32
  here's
• 2:32
  the
• 2:32
  truth
• 2:32
  I
• 2:32
  need
• 2:32
  you
• 2:33
  to
• 2:33
  hear,
• 2:33
  and
• 2:33
  I
• 2:33
  need
• 2:34
  you
• 2:34
  to
• 2:34
  hear
• 2:34
  it
• 2:34
  right
• 2:34
  now.
• 2:36
  Even
• 2:36
  the
• 2:37
  best
• 2:37
  plan,
• 2:38
  I'm
• 2:39
  talking
• 2:39
  about
• 2:39
  the
• 2:40
  best
• 2:40
  plan
• 2:41
  will
• 2:42
  never
• 2:42
  replace
• 2:42
  your
• 2:43
  need
• 2:43
  for
• 2:43
  Christ.
• 2:45
  Did
• 2:46
  you
• 2:46
  hear
• 2:46
  what
• 2:46
  I
• 2:46
  just
• 2:46
  said?
• 2:48
  Even
• 2:48
  the
• 2:49
  best
• 2:49
  plan
• 2:51
  will
• 2:51
  never
• 2:51
  replace
• 2:52
  your
• 2:52
  need
• 2:52
  for
• 2:52
  Christ.
• 2:55
  Because
• 2:55
  this
• 2:55
  is
• 2:55
  foundational.
• 2:58
  And
• 2:58
  here's
• 2:58
  the
• 2:58
  thing
• 2:58
  I
• 2:58
  need
• 2:59
  you
• 2:59
  to
• 2:59
  understand.
• 2:59
  True
• 3:00
  peace
• 3:00
  doesn't
• 3:01
  come
• 3:01
  from
• 3:01
  money.
• 3:03
  We
• 3:03
  live
• 3:03
  in
• 3:03
  a
• 3:03
  culture
• 3:04
  where
• 3:04
  all
• 3:05
  around
• 3:05
  you,
• 3:05
  peace
• 3:06
  comes
• 3:06
  from
• 3:06
  money.
• 3:06
  Hey,
• 3:06
  have
• 3:07
  this
• 3:07
  stuff,
• 3:07
  you'll
• 3:07
  have
• 3:07
  peace.
• 3:08
  Make
• 3:08
  this
• 3:08
  much
• 3:09
  money,
• 3:09
  you'll
• 3:09
  have
• 3:10
  peace.
• 3:10
  Do
• 3:10
  this,
• 3:10
  you'll
• 3:11
  have
• 3:11
  peace.
• 3:13
  But
• 3:14
  true
• 3:14
  peace
• 3:14
  doesn't
• 3:15
  come
• 3:15
  from
• 3:15
  money,
• 3:15
  it
• 3:16
  comes
• 3:16
  from
• 3:16
  God.
• 3:17
  Well,
• 3:18
  let's
• 3:18
  look
• 3:18
  at
• 3:18
  the
• 3:18
  Scriptures.
• 3:19
  Let's
• 3:19
  look
• 3:19
  at
• 3:19
  the
• 3:19
  Book
• 3:19
  of
• 3:19
  John,
• 3:20
  chapter
• 3:21
  14,
• 3:21
  verse
• 3:22
  27.
• 3:22
  And
• 3:23
  Jesus
• 3:23
  says
• 3:23
  this
• 3:25
  peace
• 3:26
  I
• 3:26
  leave
• 3:26
  you.
• 3:28
  My
• 3:28
  peace
• 3:28
  I
• 3:28
  give
• 3:29
  you.
• 3:29
  I
• 3:29
  did
• 3:29
  not
• 3:29
  give
• 3:29
  it
• 3:30
  to
• 3:30
  you
• 3:30
  as
• 3:30
  the
• 3:30
  world
• 3:31
  gives.
• 3:33
  Do
• 3:33
  not
• 3:34
  let
• 3:34
  your
• 3:34
  hearts
• 3:34
  be
• 3:34
  troubled
• 3:36
  and
• 3:36
  do
• 3:36
  not
• 3:37
  be
• 3:37
  afraid
• 3:39
  See,
• 3:39
  that's
• 3:39
  peace
• 3:40
  right
• 3:40
  there.
• 3:41
  Let's
• 3:42
  continue
• 3:42
  on.
• 3:42
  Let's
• 3:42
  look
• 3:43
  at
• 3:43
  the
• 3:43
  book
• 3:43
  of
• 3:43
  Philippians,
• 3:43
  chapter
• 3:44
  4,
• 3:44
  verse
• 3:44
  7.
• 3:45
  Because
• 3:45
  it
• 3:45
  reminds
• 3:45
  us
• 3:45
  of
• 3:46
  a
• 3:46
  beautiful
• 3:46
  truth.
• 3:48
  And
• 3:49
  the
• 3:49
  peace
• 3:49
  of
• 3:49
  God,
• 3:50
  which
• 3:50
  transcends
• 3:51
  all
• 3:51
  understanding,
• 3:52
  will
• 3:52
  guard
• 3:53
  your
• 3:53
  hearts
• 3:53
  and
• 3:54
  your
• 3:54
  minds
• 3:55
  in
• 3:55
  Christ
• 3:55
  Jesus.
• 3:58
  And
• 3:58
  I
• 3:58
  got
• 3:58
  one
• 3:58
  more
• 3:58
  scripture
• 3:59
  I
• 3:59
  want
• 3:59
  to
• 3:59
  quote,
• 3:59
  and
• 3:59
  I
• 4:00
  love
• 4:00
  the
• 4:00
  book
• 4:00
  of
• 4:00
  Romans.
• 4:00
  If
• 4:01
  you
• 4:01
  listen
• 4:01
  to
• 4:01
  me,
• 4:01
  you
• 4:01
  know,
• 4:01
  I
• 4:01
  talk
• 4:01
  about
• 4:02
  the
• 4:02
  book
• 4:02
  of
• 4:02
  Romans
• 4:02
  as
• 4:03
  being
• 4:03
  my
• 4:03
  favorite
• 4:03
  book
• 4:03
  of
• 4:03
  the
• 4:04
  Bible.
• 4:05
  Let's
• 4:05
  look
• 4:05
  at
• 4:05
  the
• 4:05
  Book
• 4:05
  of
• 4:06
  Romans,
• 4:06
  chapter
• 4:06
  8,
• 4:07
  verse
• 4:07
  28.
• 4:07
  Because
• 4:08
  it
• 4:08
  gives
• 4:08
  us
• 4:08
  this
• 4:08
  promise.
• 4:11
  And
• 4:11
  we
• 4:11
  know
• 4:11
  that
• 4:12
  in
• 4:12
  all
• 4:12
  things,
• 4:14
  God
• 4:14
  works
• 4:15
  for
• 4:15
  the
• 4:15
  good
• 4:15
  of
• 4:15
  those
• 4:15
  who
• 4:16
  love
• 4:16
  him,

  who

  have
• 4:17
  been
• 4:17
  called
• 4:17
  according
• 4:18
  to
• 4:18
  his
• 4:18
  purpose.
• 4:21
  Just
• 4:21
  dwell
• 4:21
  on
• 4:21
  that
• 4:22
  for
• 4:22
  a
• 4:22
  second.
• 4:23
  Meditate
• 4:23
  on
• 4:23
  that
• 4:23
  for
• 4:23
  a
• 4:23
  second.
• 4:24
  We
• 4:24
  know
• 4:24
  in
• 4:24
  all
• 4:25
  things,
• 4:27
  God
• 4:27
  works
• 4:28
  for

• 4:34
  Friend,
• 4:34
  God
• 4:35
  is
• 4:35
  your

  anchor.
• 4:35
  It's
• 4:36
  not

  your

  income.
• 4:38
  God
• 4:38
  is

  your

  anchor.
• 4:39
  It's

  not

  your

  savings.
• 4:41
  God
• 4:41
  is
• 4:42
  your

  anchor.
• 4:42
  It's

  not

  your

• 4:46
  Surrender

  stewardship

  I

  Surrender

  Do

  you

  today?

  Really?

  Do

  you

• 5:05
  be
• 5:05
  saying,
• 5:05
  okay,
• 5:06
  Ralph,
• 5:06
  yes,
• 5:06
  I
• 5:06
  want
• 5:06
  lasting
• 5:07
  peace.
• 5:07
  What
• 5:07
  can
• 5:07
  we
• 5:07
  do?
• 5:08
  What
• 5:08
  can
• 5:08
  we
• 5:08
  do?
• 5:09
  Well,
• 5:09
  here's
• 5:09
  what
• 5:09
  you
• 5:09
  got
• 5:09
  to
• 5:09
  do.
• 5:11
  Surrender
• 5:12
  your
• 5:12
  financial
• 5:13
  fears
• 5:13
  daily
• 5:14
  and
• 5:14
  anchor
• 5:14
  your
• 5:14
  peace
• 5:15
  in
• 5:15
  God's
• 5:15
  promises,
• 5:16
  not
• 5:17
  in
• 5:17
  your
• 5:17
  bank
• 5:17
  balance.
• 5:19
  I
• 5:19
  want
• 5:20
  to
• 5:20
  say
• 5:20
  that
• 5:20
  again
• 5:20
  because
• 5:20
  you
• 5:21
  may
• 5:21
  have
• 5:21
  missed
• 5:21
  it.
• 5:22
  Surrender
• 5:22
  financial
• 5:23
  fears
• 5:24
  daily,
• 5:25
  daily,
• 5:26
  and
• 5:27
  anchor
• 5:27
  your
• 5:27
  peace
• 5:28
  in
• 5:28
  God's
• 5:28
  promises,
• 5:29
  not
• 5:29
  your
• 5:30
  bank
• 5:30
  balance.
• 5:31
  That's
• 5:32
  how
• 5:32
  you
• 5:32
  walk
• 5:32
  in
• 5:32
  true
• 5:33
  financial
• 5:33
  confidence.
• 5:34
  They
• 5:35
  might
• 5:35
  be
• 5:35
  saying,
• 5:35
  that
• 5:35
  sounds
• 5:36
  great,
• 5:36
  Rob,
• 5:36
  but
• 5:36
  how
• 5:36
  do
• 5:36
  I
• 5:36
  do
• 5:36
  it?
• 5:37
  Well,
• 5:37
  I've
• 5:37
  got
• 5:37
  an
• 5:37
  action
• 5:38
  step
• 5:38
  for
• 5:38
  you
• 5:38
  today.
• 5:39
  I
• 5:39
  want
• 5:40
  you
• 5:40
  to
• 5:40
  really
• 5:40
  take
• 5:40
  a
• 5:40
  moment
• 5:41
  and
• 5:41
  identify
• 5:42
  your
• 5:42
  confidence.
• 5:42
  Steve,
• 5:44
  take
• 5:44
  a
• 5:44
  moment,
• 5:44
  ask
• 5:45
  this
• 5:45
  question.
• 5:45
  What
• 5:46
  financial
• 5:46
  fear
• 5:47
  is
• 5:47
  stealing
• 5:47
  my
• 5:47
  peace
• 5:48
  right
• 5:48
  now?
• 5:50
  Look
• 5:50
  deeper
• 5:51
  than
• 5:51
  the
• 5:51
  numbers.
• 5:52
  What's
• 5:53
  weighing
• 5:53
  on
• 5:53
  your
• 5:54
  heart?
• 5:56
  Is
• 5:56
  it
• 5:56
  waking
• 5:56
  up
• 5:56
  at
• 5:57
  2am
• 5:57
  wondering
• 5:57
  if
• 5:57
  your
• 5:58
  job
• 5:58
  will
• 5:58
  still
• 5:58
  be
• 5:58
  there
• 5:59
  the
• 5:59
  next
• 5:59
  month?
• 6:00
  There's
• 6:00
  been
• 6:01
  a
• 6:01
  lot
• 6:01
  of
• 6:01
  cuts
• 6:01
  around
• 6:01
  me,
• 6:02
  Ralph.
• 6:02
  I'm
• 6:02
  worried
• 6:02
  about
• 6:02
  my
• 6:03
  job.
• 6:03
  Things
• 6:04
  are
• 6:04
  not
• 6:04
  great
• 6:04
  at
• 6:04
  my
• 6:05
  business.
• 6:07
  Maybe
• 6:07
  for
• 6:07
  you
• 6:07
  it's
• 6:08
  watching
• 6:08
  the
• 6:08
  stock
• 6:08
  market
• 6:09
  tank
• 6:09
  and
• 6:09
  thinking,
• 6:09
  will
• 6:09
  I
• 6:10
  ever
• 6:10
  have
• 6:10
  anything
• 6:11
  left
• 6:11
  for
• 6:11
  retirement?
• 6:12
  Will
• 6:12
  I
• 6:12
  have
• 6:13
  enough
• 6:13
  left
• 6:13
  for
• 6:14
  retirement?
• 6:16
  Maybe
• 6:16
  the
• 6:17
  mail
• 6:17
  comes
• 6:17
  and
• 6:17
  you
• 6:17
  open
• 6:18
  a
• 6:18
  surprise
• 6:18
  medical
• 6:19
  bill
• 6:19
  and
• 6:19
  you
• 6:19
  feel
• 6:19
  like
• 6:19
  your
• 6:20
  stomach
• 6:20
  just
• 6:20
  dropped.
• 6:20
  Man,
• 6:21
  I
• 6:21
  wasn't
• 6:21
  counting
• 6:21
  on
• 6:21
  this,
• 6:22
  Ralph.
• 6:23
  The
• 6:23
  insurance
• 6:24
  company's
• 6:24
  not
• 6:24
  going
• 6:24
  to
• 6:24
  cover
• 6:25
  this.
• 6:25
  And,
• 6:25
  man,
• 6:25
  I
• 6:25
  don't
• 6:25
  know
• 6:25
  where
• 6:25
  I'm
• 6:26
  going
• 6:26
  to
• 6:26
  get
• 6:26
  the
• 6:26
  money.
• 6:28
  Or
• 6:28
  maybe,
• 6:28
  like
• 6:29
  a
• 6:29
  lot
• 6:29
  of
• 6:29
  us,
• 6:30
  you're
• 6:30
  scrolling
• 6:31
  through
• 6:31
  news
• 6:31
  headlines
• 6:33
  and
• 6:33
  they
• 6:34
  just
• 6:34
  say
• 6:34
  it's
• 6:35
  only
• 6:35
  going
• 6:35
  to
• 6:35
  get
• 6:35
  worse.
• 6:38
  The
• 6:38
  headlines.
• 6:39
  Sometimes
• 6:39
  that's
• 6:39
  all
• 6:39
  they
• 6:39
  say
• 6:40
  to
• 6:40
  us.
• 6:40
  It's
• 6:40
  only
• 6:40
  going
• 6:40
  to
• 6:41
  get
• 6:41
  worse.
• 6:41
  But
• 6:41
  I
• 6:41
  want
• 6:41
  you
• 6:42
  to
• 6:42
  write
• 6:42
  that
• 6:43
  fear
• 6:43
  down.
• 6:44
  Name
• 6:44
  it.
• 6:45
  Because
• 6:45
  here's
• 6:45
  the
• 6:45
  truth.
• 6:46
  Fear
• 6:46
  thrives
• 6:47
  in
• 6:47
  the
• 6:47
  dark.
• 6:47
  And
• 6:48
  the
• 6:48
  only
• 6:48
  way
• 6:48
  you're
• 6:49
  going
• 6:49
  to
• 6:49
  conquer
• 6:49
  it
• 6:49
  is
• 6:49
  to
• 6:50
  drag
• 6:50
  it
• 6:50
  into
• 6:50
  the
• 6:51
  light.
• 6:53
  And
• 6:53
  then
• 6:54
  you
• 6:54
  got
• 6:54
  to
• 6:54
  practice
• 6:54
  surrender.
• 6:57
  I'm
• 6:57
  going
• 6:57
  to
• 6:57
  encourage
• 6:57
  you
• 6:57
  to
• 6:58
  speak
• 6:58
  this
• 6:58
  prayer
• 6:58
  aloud.
• 6:59
  Or
• 6:59
  maybe
• 6:59
  you're
• 7:00
  not
• 7:00
  one
• 7:00
  of
• 7:00
  these
• 7:00
  aloud
• 7:01
  prayers.
• 7:01
  Just
• 7:01
  whisper
• 7:01
  it
• 7:02
  in
• 7:02
  your
• 7:02
  own
• 7:02
  spirit.
• 7:02
  Say,
• 7:03
  lord,
• 7:03
  I
• 7:04
  give
• 7:04
  you
• 7:04
  my
• 7:04
  fear
• 7:05
  of.
• 7:05
  And
• 7:05
  then
• 7:05
  name
• 7:05
  that
• 7:06
  specific
• 7:06
  fear,
• 7:07
  whatever
• 7:07
  that
• 7:08
  is.
• 7:08
  My
• 7:09
  fear
• 7:09
  of
• 7:09
  losing
• 7:09
  my
• 7:09
  job.
• 7:10
  My
• 7:10
  fear
• 7:10
  of
• 7:11
  not
• 7:11
  having
• 7:11
  enough
• 7:11
  for
• 7:11
  retirement.
• 7:12
  My
• 7:12
  fear
• 7:12
  that
• 7:13
  everything's
• 7:13
  crumbling
• 7:14
  around
• 7:14
  me.
• 7:15
  Lord,
• 7:15
  I
• 7:15
  give
• 7:16
  that
• 7:16
  fear
• 7:16
  to
• 7:16
  you
• 7:16
  today.
• 7:17
  You
• 7:17
  are
• 7:17
  my
• 7:17
  provider.
• 7:18
  Not
• 7:18
  my
• 7:18
  paycheck,
• 7:19
  not
• 7:19
  the
• 7:20
  market,
• 7:20
  not
• 7:21
  my
• 7:21
  own
• 7:21
  hustle.
• 7:23
  And
• 7:24
  I
• 7:24
  want
• 7:24
  you
• 7:24
  to
• 7:24
  do
• 7:24
  a
• 7:25
  little
• 7:25
  thing
• 7:25
  with
• 7:25
  your
• 7:25
  mind.
• 7:25
  Picture
• 7:26
  yourself
• 7:26
  just
• 7:26
  taking
• 7:26
  that
• 7:27
  and
• 7:27
  handing
• 7:27
  it
• 7:27
  to
• 7:28
  God.
• 7:29
  Just
• 7:29
  handing
• 7:30
  it
• 7:30
  to
• 7:30
  him.
• 7:30
  Lord,
• 7:31
  here
• 7:31
  you
• 7:31
  go.
• 7:33
  Kind
• 7:33
  of
• 7:33
  like
• 7:34
  you're
• 7:34
  on
• 7:34
  a
• 7:34
  journey.
• 7:34
  You're
• 7:35
  setting
• 7:35
  down
• 7:35
  this
• 7:35
  heavy
• 7:35
  backpack
• 7:36
  you've
• 7:36
  been
• 7:36
  carrying
• 7:37
  for
• 7:37
  far
• 7:37
  too
• 7:37
  long.
• 7:39
  Just
• 7:39
  let
• 7:39
  him
• 7:40
  take
• 7:40
  it
• 7:42
  and
• 7:42
  just
• 7:43
  savor
• 7:43
  in
• 7:43
  that
• 7:44
  relief.
• 7:44
  Feel
• 7:44
  that
• 7:44
  relief.
• 7:45
  Just
• 7:45
  leave
• 7:45
  it
• 7:45
  at
• 7:46
  the
• 7:46
  foot
• 7:46
  of
• 7:46
  the
• 7:46
  cross.
• 7:48
  Then
• 7:49
  I'm
• 7:49
  going
• 7:49
  to
• 7:49
  encourage
• 7:50
  you
• 7:50
  to
• 7:50
  meditate
• 7:50
  on
• 7:51
  Scripture.
• 7:52
  See,
• 7:52
  God's
• 7:52
  word
• 7:53
  doesn't
• 7:53
  just
• 7:53
  inform
• 7:55
  one
• 7:55
  of
• 7:55
  the
• 7:55
  beauties
• 7:56
  of
• 7:56
  scripture.
• 7:56
  It's
• 7:57
  one
• 7:58
  of
• 7:58
  the
• 7:58
  big
• 7:58
  reasons
• 7:58
  I
• 7:58
  do
• 7:58
  this
• 7:59
  show.
• 7:59
  Because
• 7:59
  God's
• 8:00
  word
• 8:00
  doesn't
• 8:01
  just
• 8:01
  inform,
• 8:01
  it
• 8:02
  transforms.
• 8:04
  I'm
• 8:04
  going
• 8:05
  to
• 8:05
  encourage
• 8:05
  you.
• 8:05
  Choose
• 8:05
  one
• 8:05
  of
• 8:06
  today's
• 8:06
  verses
• 8:06
  and
• 8:06
  carry
• 8:07
  it
• 8:07
  like
• 8:07
  armor.
• 8:08
  John
• 8:09
  14:27.
• 8:10
  Peace
• 8:10
  I
• 8:11
  leave
• 8:11
  you.
• 8:11
  Don't
• 8:11
  let
• 8:11
  your
• 8:11
  hearts
• 8:12
  be
• 8:12
  troubled.
• 8:14
  Philippians
• 8:14
  4:7.
• 8:15
  The
• 8:15
  peace
• 8:15
  of
• 8:16
  God
• 8:16
  will
• 8:16
  guard
• 8:16
  your
• 8:16
  hearts
• 8:17
  and
• 8:17
  your
• 8:17
  minds.
• 8:20
  Or
• 8:20
  Romans
• 8:20
  8:28.
• 8:21
  In
• 8:21
  all
• 8:22
  things,
• 8:22
  God
• 8:22
  works
• 8:22
  for
• 8:23
  the
• 8:23
  good
• 8:23
  of
• 8:23
  those
• 8:23
  who
• 8:23
  love
• 8:24
  him.
• 8:26
  Repeat
• 8:26
  it.
• 8:26
  When
• 8:27
  fear
• 8:27
  rises,
• 8:28
  write
• 8:29
  it
• 8:29
  on
• 8:29
  a
• 8:29
  sticky
• 8:29
  note.
• 8:30
  Say
• 8:30
  it
• 8:30
  in
• 8:30
  the
• 8:30
  car.
• 8:31
  Whisper
• 8:31
  it
• 8:31
  before
• 8:32
  bed.
• 8:32
  Because
• 8:32
  no
• 8:32
  budget.
• 8:33
  And
• 8:33
  hear
• 8:33
  me
• 8:33
  on
• 8:33
  this
• 8:35
  no
• 8:35
  budget,
• 8:36
  no
• 8:36
  savings
• 8:37
  account,
• 8:37
  no
• 8:37
  financial
• 8:38
  strategy
• 8:38
  can
• 8:38
  guard
• 8:39
  your
• 8:39
  heart
• 8:39
  like
• 8:40
  God's
• 8:40
  peace.
• 8:42
  Because,
• 8:42
  friend,
• 8:43
  God
• 8:43
  is
• 8:43
  the
• 8:43
  key
• 8:44
  to
• 8:44
  your
• 8:44
  long
• 8:44
  term
• 8:45
  peace.
• 8:46
  And
• 8:46
  if
• 8:47
  you
• 8:47
  do
• 8:47
  these
• 8:47
  things,
• 8:47
  it's
• 8:48
  going
• 8:48
  to
• 8:48
  break
• 8:48
  that
• 8:48
  idol
• 8:49
  of
• 8:49
  control
• 8:50
  and
• 8:50
  that
• 8:50
  that
• 8:50
  seeking
• 8:51
  always
• 8:51
  for
• 8:51
  financial
• 8:52
  perfection.
• 8:53
  It's
• 8:53
  going
• 8:53
  to
• 8:53
  build
• 8:54
  spiritual
• 8:54
  resistance.
• 8:55
  It's
• 8:55
  going
• 8:55
  to
• 8:55
  restore
• 8:56
  joy
• 8:56
  and
• 8:56
  peace,
• 8:57
  even
• 8:57
  in
• 8:57
  uncertainty.
• 8:58
  And
• 8:59
  it's
• 8:59
  going
• 8:59
  to
• 8:59
  anchor
• 9:00
  your
• 9:00
  Confidence
• 9:00
  in
• 9:00
  God,
• 9:02
  not
• 9:03
  your
• 9:03
  performance.
• 9:04
  How
• 9:05
  about
• 9:05
  we
• 9:05
  pray
• 9:05
  together,
• 9:07
  Father?
• 9:07
  God,
• 9:07
  we
• 9:07
  just
• 9:08
  thank
• 9:08
  you
• 9:08
  for
• 9:08
  being
• 9:08
  our
• 9:08
  faithful
• 9:09
  provider,
• 9:10
  our
• 9:10
  perfect
• 9:10
  peace
• 9:11
  and
• 9:11
  our
• 9:11
  unshakable
• 9:12
  anchor.
• 9:14
  And
• 9:14
  Lord,
• 9:14
  we
• 9:14
  confess
• 9:15
  that
• 9:15
  often,
• 9:15
  we
• 9:16
  often
• 9:16
  place
• 9:16
  our
• 9:16
  hope
• 9:17
  in
• 9:17
  numbers
• 9:17
  and
• 9:17
  we
• 9:18
  let
• 9:18
  our
• 9:18
  fear
• 9:18
  creep
• 9:18
  in
• 9:19
  when
• 9:19
  things
• 9:19
  shift.
• 9:22
  So
• 9:22
  today,
• 9:22
  Lord,
• 9:22
  we
• 9:23
  surrender.
• 9:24
  We
• 9:24
  give
• 9:24
  you
• 9:25
  our
• 9:25
  fears,
• 9:25
  our
• 9:26
  what
• 9:26
  ifs,
• 9:27
  those
• 9:28
  things
• 9:28
  that
• 9:28
  bother
• 9:28
  us,
• 9:28
  those
• 9:29
  things
• 9:29
  that
• 9:29
  weigh
• 9:29
  on
• 9:29
  our
• 9:29
  soul
• 9:30
  every
• 9:30
  day
• 9:30
  and
• 9:30
  our
• 9:30
  striving,
• 9:31
  Lord,
• 9:31
  and
• 9:31
  we
• 9:32
  just
• 9:32
  ask
• 9:32
  that
• 9:32
  you
• 9:32
  help
• 9:32
  us.
• 9:33
  Rest
• 9:33
  in
• 9:33
  your
• 9:33
  promises,
• 9:35
  Lord.
• 9:35
  Fill
• 9:36
  us
• 9:36
  with
• 9:36
  peace
• 9:36
  that
• 9:36
  surpasses
• 9:37
  all
• 9:37
  understanding.
• 9:38
  And
• 9:38
  anchor
• 9:39
  our
• 9:39
  confidence
• 9:39
  in
• 9:39
  you
• 9:40
  alone.
• 9:40
  And
• 9:41
  we
• 9:41
  ask
• 9:41
  this
• 9:42
  humbly
• 9:42
  in
• 9:43
  boldness.
• 9:44
  Sounds
• 9:44
  like
• 9:45
  a
• 9:45
  contradiction,
• 9:45
  but
• 9:45
  we
• 9:46
  ask
• 9:46
  this
• 9:46
  humbly.
• 9:47
  And
• 9:48
  we
• 9:48
  ask
• 9:48
  this
• 9:48
  in
• 9:49
  boldness
• 9:50
  and
• 9:50
  confidence
• 9:51
  in
• 9:51
  Jesus
• 9:51
  name.
• 9:52
  Amen.
• 9:54
  Friend.
• 9:55
  Your
• 9:55
  confidence
• 9:56
  is
• 9:56
  not
• 9:56
  in
• 9:57
  your
• 9:57
  cash.
• 9:58
  It's
• 9:58
  not
• 9:58
  in
• 9:59
  your
• 9:59
  retirement
• 9:59
  account,
• 10:00
  it's
• 10:00
  not
• 10:00
  in
• 10:00
  your
• 10:01
  bank
• 10:01
  balance.
• 10:01
  It's
• 10:02
  not
• 10:02
  in
• 10:02
  the
• 10:02
  stuff
• 10:02
  that
• 10:02
  you
• 10:02
  have.
• 10:03
  It's
• 10:03
  in
• 10:03
  Christ.
• 10:05
  Hear
• 10:05
  me
• 10:05
  on
• 10:05
  that.
• 10:06
  It's
• 10:06
  in
• 10:07
  Christ.
• 10:08
  So
• 10:09
  I
• 10:09
  just
• 10:09
  want
• 10:09
  to
• 10:09
  encourage
• 10:09
  you
• 10:10
  today,
• 10:10
  surrender
• 10:10
  the
• 10:11
  fear.
• 10:13
  Just
• 10:14
  hand
• 10:14
  it
• 10:14
  over
• 10:14
  to
• 10:14
  God
• 10:16
  and
• 10:16
  embrace
• 10:16
  that
• 10:17
  peace
• 10:17
  and
• 10:17
  walk
• 10:17
  forward.
• 10:18
  Knowing
• 10:18
  this,
• 10:20
  you
• 10:20
  are
• 10:20
  financially
• 10:21
  confident
• 10:22
  not
• 10:22
  because
• 10:22
  of
• 10:22
  your
• 10:22
  performance,
• 10:26
  but
• 10:26
  because
• 10:26
  of
• 10:26
  his
• 10:27
  promises.
• 10:29
  I
• 10:29
  want
• 10:29
  to
• 10:29
  ask
• 10:30
  you
• 10:30
  a

  favor
• 10:30
  right
• 10:30
  now.
• 10:31
  Do

• 10:31
  a
• 10:32
  favor
• 10:32
  and
• 10:32
  share
• 10:32
  this
• 10:32
  show
• 10:33
  with
• 10:33
  somebody.

  If

  the

• 10:34
  is
• 10:34
  giving
• 10:35
  you
• 10:35
  value,
• 10:35
  if
• 10:36
  it's
• 10:36
  giving
• 10:36
  you
• 10:36
  confidence,
• 10:37
  if
• 10:37
  it's
• 10:37
  helping
• 10:37
  you
• 10:38
  walk
• 10:38
  in
• 10:39
  that
• 10:39
  financial
• 10:40
  certainty,
• 10:41
  share

  it
• 10:42
  with

  somebody
• 10:42
  who's

  maybe,

  somebody
• 10:44
  in
• 10:44
  your
• 10:45
  life
• 10:45
  right
• 10:45
  now
• 10:45
  that's
• 10:45
  struggling
• 10:46
  with

  that

  lack

  of

  confidence.
• 10:47
  They're

  you

  know,

  they're

  just

  Just

  financiallyconfidentchristian.com
• 11:03
  it
• 11:03
  truly

  could

  be

  impactful
• 11:04
  to

  someone

  just

  And

  tomorrow

  we're

  going

  to

  talk

  about

  a

  powerful,
• 11:11
  practical

  daily

  in

  intentional
• 11:14
  living
• 11:15
  every

  single

  day.
• 11:16
  Because
• 11:16
  that's
• 11:16
  what
• 11:17
  it's
• 11:17
  all
• 11:17
  about.
• 11:17
  It's

  about

  So
