Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Good morning, Good morning, good morning. It is time for
- 0:02Speaker 1: us to go to God and prayer, and as always
- 0:05Speaker 1: I ask that you join along with me in prayer.
- 0:09Speaker 1: You know, as I'm watching the news and everything unfold,
- 0:15Speaker 1: I see every day an opportunity to walk in fear.
- 0:19Speaker 1: Every day I see an opportunity to be overwhelmed. When
- 0:22Speaker 1: I see planes crashing from the sky. People are now
- 0:27Speaker 1: afraid to travel, and some people travel as a part
- 0:30Speaker 1: of their livelihood and their jobs. I see what's happening
- 0:34Speaker 1: with the economy and job loss and the fear mongering,
- 0:38Speaker 1: if you will, the price of eggs just skyrocketing, and
- 0:43Speaker 1: recent decisions in government. People are paralyzed with fear. That's
- 0:50Speaker 1: why we have to put our hope, our faith, our trust,
- 0:53Speaker 1: our confidence in the Lord. He's not only providing our
- 0:58Speaker 1: jobs as our resource. He is our source. He's our provider.
- 1:03Speaker 1: He's our peace. He's the one that holds us up anyway.
- 1:06Speaker 1: He's the one that protects us whether we're in the
- 1:09Speaker 1: plane or on land. He is our protector, Oh, Heavenly Father,
- 1:14Speaker 1: in this world full of uncertainty, we come before you
- 1:18Speaker 1: today seeking your peace and your comfort. Lord. We acknowledge
- 1:22Speaker 1: the fears that sometimes rise up in us, fears that
- 1:26Speaker 1: threaten to paralyze us, fear of traveling or fear of
- 1:30Speaker 1: the unknown, fear of the economy, and even decisions beyond
- 1:34Speaker 1: our control. Oh but we know, Father, that you are
- 1:37Speaker 1: greater than all of these fears. God, I always say
- 1:42Speaker 1: that fear is false evidence appearing real. Lord, your word
- 1:48Speaker 1: tells us, do not fear, for I am with you. Lord.
- 1:51Speaker 1: We're asking today for your strength to hold fast to
- 1:54Speaker 1: that truth, to remember that you're always right by our side,
- 1:58Speaker 1: that you're guiding us, that you're protecting us. Help us
- 2:01Speaker 1: to trust in your provision, your time, and your planing
- 2:04Speaker 1: for our lives. God, with our heart is heavy with anxiety,
- 2:09Speaker 1: remind us of your sovereignty when the world around us
- 2:12Speaker 1: is filled with so much chaos. God, help us to
- 2:15Speaker 1: fix our eyes on Jesus, the offer and the perfect
- 2:18Speaker 1: of the furnisher, God of our faith. Lord, let his
- 2:22Speaker 1: peace God our heart and our mind, and Lord, let
- 2:25Speaker 1: us find refuge in His promises. Today, God, we surrender
- 2:30Speaker 1: our fears to you. We act that you replace our
- 2:33Speaker 1: wordy with your hope, with our anxiety with your piece
- 2:38Speaker 1: of goals beyonder our human understanding. I doubt with your insurance. God,
- 2:42Speaker 1: let us trust fully in you, knowing that you hold
- 2:45Speaker 1: our future in your hands, and that we are safe
- 2:49Speaker 1: in your arms. God, we trust you to order and
- 2:54Speaker 1: orchestrate our steps, to lead us, to guide us. God
- 2:58Speaker 1: in Jesus man Amen,
