- 0:00Speaker 1: Good morning. Yet it's time for us to go to
- 0:02Speaker 1: God in prayer, and on this Friday where we honor
- 0:05Speaker 1: and celebrate our seasoned saints. Those were a little age
- 0:09Speaker 1: on them. I want to encourage you today that is
- 0:13Speaker 1: not too late to fulfill your purpose, your destiny, or
- 0:19Speaker 1: your dream, whatever it is you're believe in God. For
- 0:23Speaker 1: God can still use you, and he will as long
- 0:26Speaker 1: as you got breath in your body. He wants and
- 0:29Speaker 1: desires to use you. Let me share a few people
- 0:32Speaker 1: who amassed success later in life, people like Martha Stewart.
- 0:38Speaker 1: She worked on Wall Street and owned a Connecticut catering firm,
- 0:41Speaker 1: but her real success came after she was forty one
- 0:43Speaker 1: years old with a publication of her first book. Colonel
- 0:47Speaker 1: Harland Sanders, You said, Sherry, who is that? He established
- 0:50Speaker 1: the Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant chain when he was sixty
- 0:53Speaker 1: five years young. Y'all remember a Little House on the
- 0:57Speaker 1: Prairie back in the day, Well, the real life Laura
- 1:00Speaker 1: Ingles Wilder began writing Little House on the Period when
- 1:03Speaker 1: she was sixty five years old, and it later became
- 1:07Speaker 1: a television series. And let me break it down to
- 1:09Speaker 1: somebody else. You may know Oprah Winfrey. She started as
- 1:12Speaker 1: an evening news anchor in Baltimore in her twenties before
- 1:16Speaker 1: she was fired from her job after less than a year.
- 1:20Speaker 1: And despite that rocky start, oh she achieved incredible success
- 1:24Speaker 1: at thirty two when her daytime talk show was nationally syndicated.
- 1:29Speaker 1: What am I saying to you? I'm saying is not
- 1:31Speaker 1: too late for you to start or start over again,
- 1:35Speaker 1: no matter what your age. Father, God, thank you so
- 1:38Speaker 1: much for who you created us to be. Today. I
- 1:42Speaker 1: lift up my brothers and my sisters to you that
- 1:45Speaker 1: have a dream. I ask Lord God that you bless them.
- 1:49Speaker 1: Thank You that they will remember and know God that
- 1:51Speaker 1: it's not too late for them to fulfill their purpose
- 1:55Speaker 1: and their destiny. It's not too late for them to
- 1:57Speaker 1: accomplish their goals. It's not too late for them to love.
- 2:00Speaker 1: It's not too late. God, we serve a timeless God.
- 2:04Speaker 1: Help us to realize and know that you never leave us,
- 2:07Speaker 1: you never forsake us. You're our refuge, You're our strength,
- 2:10Speaker 1: You're our very present help even in times of trouble.
- 2:14Speaker 1: I pray God that those that are listening will not
- 2:16Speaker 1: be limited by a mindset, by a background. How they
- 2:20Speaker 1: grew up or even God by the date on their
- 2:23Speaker 1: birth certificates. Thank you that our strength is renewed like
- 2:26Speaker 1: the eagle. I think if you said in your word,
- 2:29Speaker 1: even to your old age and gray hairs, you said,
- 2:31Speaker 1: you sustain us. Today we pray for strength, for wisdom,
- 2:35Speaker 1: we pray for knowledge to carry out our purpose, and
- 2:38Speaker 1: you're playing for our lives in Jesus' name. Amen,
