  Speaker 1: Sam Rock. So winners with a Z the org and live.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: That's so, winners with a Z dot org. Let me
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: just switch up my glasses here so that way I
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: could get the glare out of my eyes. Theymen. So,
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: sister Joanne, I see you. Good morning, God bless you,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: rise and shine right. Good morning, God bless you, my sister,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: my friend. Thank you so much for coming through to
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: the Morning Devo. You are such a faithful listener and
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: viewer to the Morning Devo. And I know God is
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: blessing you because you are engaged in the Word, applying
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: the word, and you are just an amazing person in
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: the Word in the Kingdom Amen of God. So today
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: we're talking about how to write your prayers down. Write
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: your prayers down, journal them. We have a scripture to
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: back up why we should do that. The Word of
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: God speaks of writing down and journaling. Write your prayers
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: today in the Morning Devo. A man is so much
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: to pray about, so much going on. If you haven't noticed,
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: a man writing helps you focus. At least it helps
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: me focus and remember. So writing helps you focus, reflect,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: and remember the three r's right there. It can also
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: help you track answered prayers and spiritual growth. When you
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: have an answered prayer, right, you make a prayer request,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: and that prayer is answered, I suggest you write it
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: down market somewhere, put it on your calendar, put it
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: in your Bible, because that means God has intervened on
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: your behalf according to your prayer requests. And that right
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: there is amazing, that right there is memorable, that right
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: there is supposed to be celebrated a man not ignored.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: This is not hocus pocus. We're praying to the true, holy, righteous,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: loving God, Amen, And when he responds, we should write
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: it down so we could track answered prayer. We could
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: track it, and we could also know that we're growing spiritually.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: And then when you go through something later on in life,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: you could go back to the promise that God gave you.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: We could go back to the answered prayer. You could
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: go back and know that you was different back then. Amen,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: you were relying on the same God. But yet we
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: relying on the same God. We're different, younger in the faith. Right.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: And then you go back and you're encouraged and you
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: continue to pray because you know, if God did it
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: once a man, he could do it again. He can,
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: doesn't have to, but he can. And we know that
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: if we write down our prayers and we prayer journal. Amen,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: is something amazing that could happen. We're gonna be in
• 2:40

  Speaker 1: on the morning, Devil, I'll be right back. Thank you
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: so much for sharing helping me share this out, whether
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: you're watching live, or you're watching from the rebroadcast, or
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: you're watching or listening later on Amen. Thank you so
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: much for sharing this out. If at any moment, whether
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: we're live or not, at any moment you have something
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: to share, your head and share on the live chat,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: on the page, on the website, on the podcast, and
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: on the radio network if you're there, so listen. Let's
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: go for it. Let's get this scripture on the screen
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: for those who are listening only because you're driving, maybe
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: you're working out, maybe you're jogging. Amen. But we're going
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: to read this word for word the way we see
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: it on the screen, so that way everyone's on the
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: same page literally, amen. So that way we could really
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: press into what God is saying today and this morning. Amen.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: So let's go for it. And here we go. Let
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: me get this ready on the screen. Here we go.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Write your prayers. Write your prayers. This is biblical, man,
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: there's no I mean, it's practical, right. Write Write your
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: prayers down, Write your request down, write the memories down.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: A man, reflect. Remember it's a reminder of God's goodness
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: when you write your request down. Amen. And when the
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: promises of God are there, write him down. So that
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: way you know for sure that God has worked in
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: your life. Have a cook. Chapter two, verse number two says,
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: then the Lord answered me and said, the Lord speaks,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: he still speaks. I heard a preacher say God doesn't
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: speak no more. Okay. Then the Lord answered me and said,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: write the vision and engrave it plainly. On clay tablets,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: so that the one who reads it will run. Amen.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: So in other words, write down what you see, write
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: down what you hear, write down the revelation. There's another
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: I should have chosen another translation that makes more sense
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: to what we're saying. And this translation says, Then the
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Lord replied, write down the revelation and make it plain
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: on tablets. Amen. Write down the revelation. Write down what
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: God revealed to you. Write down what God said, write
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: down that moment in time, put a date on it. Amen.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: I had the privilege of doing that when I went
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: into the prayer room chapel in the hospital yesterday when
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: I went to do my visit. Amen. And they have
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: a book there and you can write down your prayer requests,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: write down your answered prayers, write down the revelation of God. Amen,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: so all can see. And when somebody else sees was
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: being written down, Amen, in our situation that we're facing,
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: it will inspire others and say, listen, if God could
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: do that for them, that means God could do that
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: for me. It's inspirational and inspires and encourages when you
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: write down your prayers, When you write down and journal
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: your prayer requests answered prayer, some prayers that you probably
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: or both of us, all of us haven't received according
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: to how we thought we would receive it. Write it down.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: God has showing you something. God has shown me something, Amen,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: and write it and make it plain. N't have to
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: make it a mystery. It doesn't have to be mystery.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: It doesn't have to be something so complicated. Lord said,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: make it plain. But others could see. Amen. The other
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: version says and they were, so others will run and
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: tell somebody else. Amen. But we have to read in
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: a context. So if you take haber Cook chapter two,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: read the whole chapter. We can't bring out of verse
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: number two. So write your prayers down. That's prayer journaling. Amen.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: I should have brought up my prayer journal, Amen, that
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: I used to have before. I can't find it. That's
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: the reason why I'm not showing you right now. Amen.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: But take a book, plain, a plain book, Amen, and
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: write down your prayer requests, journal what God is revealing
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: to you. Because I could guarantee one day you're going
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: to need that remembory that memory. One day you're going
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: to need to reflect. One day you're going to need
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: to be focus on what God has done and what
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: God can do, not only for us, but for others. Amen. Listen,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: and we all don't deserve it. We have the grace
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: of God. That's God giving us what we don't deserve.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: We have the mercy of God and God holding back
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: what we do deserve. Amen. So the grace and mercy
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: of God amazing. We don't. God doesn't owe us anything
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: yet because He loves us and he wants to communicate
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: with us. He wants to be in our lives. He
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: wants to show us that he's real. Amen. He will
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: give us revelation of who he is more and more
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: day by day as we press into his word. So,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: writing helps you focus, Writing help you reflect, and writing
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: helps you remember. Amen. It can help you track answer
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: prayers and your spiritual growth. Amen. So reflect Remember and
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: what did I write down on the other one here?
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: Or it is focused? Reflect and remember I thought there
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: was three hours. It's only two hours, my bad, I
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: said three hours earlier. So it helps you. It's a tool.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: It's practical. It's not like you don't have to get
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: super spiritual. Literally, write down, make it plain. What are
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: you going through in your life? Write it down? What's
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: the scripture to back up on what you're writing down.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: Make sure you always tie scripture to your prayer requests, please,
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: because if it's not the word, then it's something different.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: And if you're like me, if you're praying, Amen, I
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: like to attach a word to my prayer. I like
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: to attach a word to my life. I like to
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: attach the promises of God, the scriptures, the promises to
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: the situation. Amen. And if I'm praying for others, I
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: like to tie a word for others to hear God's
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: word through the prayer. Because if it's not the word
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: of God that empowers your prayer, you might be praying
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: to the ceiling. You might not be praying to the
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: right God. Amen. God's word accomplishes God's purpose. God's word
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: is God's will, and God's word is perfect with our
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: spot or blemish. No contradictions. Don't believe the hype people
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: saying there's many errors and as many contradictions in the Bible,
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: yet they never show you one. Isn't that amazing? Oh,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: there's a errors in the Bible's been rewritten for years
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: and years and years, and we don't have the original
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: to compare it to. So how do you know that
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: the Bible has been written, has been rewritten. We have
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: copies of copies of copies, which actually is a great
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: thing in my opinion, because if some some money would
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: have had the original copy, then that someone could have
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: altered it for all time and it would have changed
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: and changed and change. And then if somebody has the original,
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: then you could compare where are the changes here? But
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: since nobody has the original, I think God set it
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: up like that. Amen. He wanted us to copy and
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: copy and copy. As people were copying over the scriptures,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: copying over the scriptures, copying over the scriptures all these years,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: thousands of years later, we can look at it and say, wow,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: there's really the same scriptures that everybody has been reading
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: since the beginning. Amen. So I'm sure when we get
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: into eternity we could ask that question, where is the original?
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: And then the Lord if he pleases, if it pleases him,
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: he'll show us the original. Amen. It's not a problem
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: at all for God. Nothing is a problem problem for God.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: Whatever God offers us, Amen, he will we will benefit
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: off of what God offers. I should say, so, I'll
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: give you some examples. When you pray with the word
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: of God and write down the word of God next
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: to your prayer. Say, you need peace and guidance. Who
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: in the world doesn't need peace and guidance. I need
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: peace and guidance. I need peace, direction, guidance, all of it.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: So I could write down a scripture next to the prayer,
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: requests Lord, I'm gonna pray Psalm twenty three, and I'm
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: gonna write it down, Amen. And you could get ahead
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: to look up Psalm twenty three, write it down, not
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: the whole chapter, maybe a verse out of Psalm twenty three,
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: and then you could ask the prayer for peace and guidance,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: and that will help you really understand what Psalm twenty
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: three is saying and what God is offering you and
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: me at that moment, at that time, put a date,
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: put down a scripture and your prayer requests about this.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: You need strength and courage. You write down a scripture
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: like Isaiah forty one and ten, and you write your
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: prayer request, Lord, according to your word in Isaiah forty
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: one and ten, please help me with strength and courage
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: about this. If you need wisdom, you have to make
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: a decision not based on your feelings, but based on
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: the Word you could go to James chapter one and five.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: Write down James chapter one, verse five, and ask God, Lord, God,
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: according to your word in James one of five, I'm
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: gonna ask you for wisdom. Journal it, write it down.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: It's okay. People say, oh, you don't have any evidence
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: that God is real. You could go to your journal
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: and say, what about this is in this evidence? Amen.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: I didn't go to Buddha, I didn't go to Muhammad,
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: I didn't go to Joseph Smith. I didn't go to
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: no religious person. I went straight to the word of
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: God and then I journaled it. I wrote down a date, Amen,
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: and God answered it this day. Then you have proof.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: You wrote it down, you made it. Others could see it. Amen.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: You could see it, and it will encourage and inspire others,
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: and people will have to admit that while this person
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: prayed and look what happened. Although it might not happen,
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: it probably won't happen immediately. And sometimes you know, life
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: happens and we need God like yesterday, but he shows
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: up in the perfect time. Amen. I was in a
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: hospital visit talking to the grandmam of who we've been
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: praying for, and I was like, I wish this would
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: just happen right now, right, But we have to be patient.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: God is patient with us. We should show patience too. Amen.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: I just want things to happen right away. If I
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: see a person sick or hurt, I want that person
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: to be healed and made whole right there on the spot.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: It could happen that way, by the way, and there's
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: been testimonies that it has happened that way. People say
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: that when I got saved, I had a one to
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: eighty like right away. Amen. That's what people say, because
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: they knew who I was. And then the next day
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: I was a changed man, different man, not perfect, and
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: I'm still being worked on. And God sees me perfect. Amen.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: The eyes of God, he sees you, and he sees
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: me perfect. God doesn't make any mistakes. God doesn't waste pain.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: He sees all our tears, Amen. And he knows our
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: heart and he loves us anyway. We don't have our
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: heart that is deceitful and wicked any longer. When we're
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: born again, we have a new heart, we have new desires,
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: we have a new mind, we have a new thought life. Amen.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: I will always always are trying to come back and
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: show up. The world's system doesn't agree with God's system. Amen.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: The Kingdom of God and the kingdom of this world
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: two different kingdoms. Right, But we know that we can
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: continue to pray. We know we can continue to trust
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: in God's word. We know we could apply the Word
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: of God every day of our lives. We don't have
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: to wait to a Bible ste that He comes. We
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: don't have to wait till morning for a morning devo.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: We don't have to wait for a midweek service or
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: Sunday service or Saturday service. We could go to the
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: Word of God daily, a man, at any time. That's
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: the amazing thing about God's Word. It's not a religion.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: It's not based on rules and regulations, based on the power,
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: the love, the grace, the mercy, testifying, testimonies, prophecies, a man,
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: the psalm, sacred songs, all of it isn't the word
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: of God. The Bible doesn't contain the Word of God.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: The Bible is the Word of God. So therefore we
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: have the Master's Plan in our hands daily. Whether you
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: have it on your phone or whether you have a
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: written out Bible right cover to cover, you can read
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: it for yourself. So how about this one. Take the
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God,
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: which is the Word of God. And pray in the
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: spirit on all occasions. So if you don't know what
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: to pray, pick up the scriptures. If you don't know
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: how to pray, pick up the scriptures, head over to
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: Ephesians shot the number six seventeen to eighteen around there
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: and pray this. Pray in the spirit on all occasions.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: And sometimes you'll start praying in a language that you
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: know you don't know. Like I remember, I had a
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: dream and in a dream, I was in the kitchen
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: and there were two dogs right in the kitchen, and
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: I was like, what are these dogs doing here? It
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: was it was a vivid dream, and a word came out, keith.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: I don't know if it was I forgot the word.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: It was a different language. I know that for sure.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: One day I went to work, I had that I
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: had that dream in my mind. And when I was
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: going to work one morning, the Lord told me, asks
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: this lady she's from. She was from somewhere near Russia, right,
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: She was a Russian lady from another country in Russia,
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: something around that area, and run that region. And she said,
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: ask her what that word meant in your dream. I
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: was like, Lord, that's crazy, Like, I hardly noticed person.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: I know she's from those countries that you just told me.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: But okay, I'll ask her. She's gonna think I'm totally crazy.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: But when I said the dream and I said the word,
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: she said, how do you know my language? I said,
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: I don't, it was in my dream. She said that
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: word means dogs, and I was like, oh man, that
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: was crazy. So God would show up in visions. God
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: would show up in your dreams. He speaks to you
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: in your dreams. And then when he gives you the
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: practical thing to do to confirm what he's told, you
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: go ahead to do it, and you'd be amazed. Hey man,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: that was the first time that I I spoken tongues
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: in another language in a dream and I got the
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: translation from the person that understood that language first time. Right,
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: that was amazing. So sometimes you'll be speaking in another language,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: you'll be speaking in tongues, You'll be speaking and praying
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: in tongues, and somebody in their native tongue will understand
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: exactly what you're saying. Another example, me and my wife
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: one time went to go pray for a young man
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: that was stabbed. I think he was stabbed. He was
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: in a bad situation in the hospital and his mom
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: was there and they were you know, the dominant language
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: was Spanish, and although I'm Puerto Rican and my wife
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: is Puerto Rican, at that point we didn't speak too
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: much Spanish. I still don't speak too much Spanish, but
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: my wife some Spanish as well, but we didn't know
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: enough to be fluent in Spanish to pray all in Spanish.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: So as my wife was there and we were asked
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: to pray, the mom was there, so you could testify.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: My wife said the whole prayer in Spanish, and then
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: the lady after we said amen, the lady was like, wait,
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: I didn't know you know how to speak Spanish like that,
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: and my wife said, I don't. That was a holy spirit.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: So there's times and places. Just open your mouth a man,
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: as you're praying, ask God to fill you up with
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: his spirit, fill you up with his word, and he
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: will do it. And then you could write it down
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: a man, make it plain, date it, puddhis scripture, What happened,
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: What did you pray? What was the revelation? Amen to
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: that way, when you go back to that. You're going
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: to be like, there is a God in heaven. There
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: is a God that moves heaven and earth on our behalf.
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: There is a God that we can rely on, that
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: we can trust. There was a God of Abraham, Isaac
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: and Jacob. There was a God who responds to prayer.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: There's a God who is faithful to his word and
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: faithful to us. There was a God who lives in
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: us by way of holy Spirit. There was a God
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: who says, is the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. And we
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: could write these things down. Enough of people saying, oh,
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: you know, you're in a religion, you're this, you're that,
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: You could get ahead and listen to what they're saying.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Or you could get ahead and show them your journal.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: You could go ahead and show them a proof in
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: your life. Have we all have different stories? Amen, Write
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: it down. It could be turned into a book. It
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: could turn into a podcast. It could turn into a
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: movie sometimes. Amen. So be practical, Amen, prayer journal. Write down.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: It helps you focus, it helps you reflect, it helps
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: you remember, and it also you could track. You could
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: use it as a track of answered prayers or prayers
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: that are yet to be answered. Man, I have some
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: prayers that are yet to be answered, and they've been
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: I've been praying maybe twenty something years for these type
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: of prayers. Amen. What happens when those prayers start working?
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: What happens when those prayers start being answered? Of just
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: because they're twenty years old doesn't mean they won't be answered, Amen,
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: But go ahead him pray and wait wait on God.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: There's nothing I have to do once I release a prayer, Amen,
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: and God hears it. As long as my prayer is
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: not hindered. As long as God hears it, Amen, you
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: can go back to that prayer every now and then.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: I don't suggest praying the same thing over and over
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: again as if God didn't hear you. He heard you
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: the first time, or maybe you weren't weren't in right
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: standing with God. And you know you're not in right
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: standing with God. But now you are right Pray that
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: prayer again, and when God hears it, he will respond
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: to that prayer according to his time. So, like I said,
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: I've been praying for certain things over and over again
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: for over twenty years, amen. And I'm asking God to tarry,
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: in other words, to not come back. Yet. I know
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: it's not up to me when God comes back. But
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: I have some prayer requests for my family that I
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: want answered for the by the Lord. Amen, before he
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: mat his return and if he tarries. If he doesn't
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: come back, Amen, Amen, it's because of a purpose and
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: a plan. If he does come back, it's for a perfect,
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: perfect plan. Amen. Sister Joys. Good morning. God bless you.
