• 8:12
  Speaker 1: this day in which God has saved me is the
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: day which the Lord has made. It's nothing that we see,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: nothing that has been created that God hasn't seen before

• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Let me speak to the people who can walk and
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: talk right now. You're alive, you are saved. You have
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: the ability to call upon the name of the Lord
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: to be saved. You are the royal priesthood, the family
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: of God, child of God. You have the inheritance of
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Jesus a man.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: We have the Kingdom of God.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: We have all the access that we need to throw
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: room with grace on this side of eternity. So imagine
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: on the other side of eternity. Now, let me speak
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: to those who might be in a wheelchair, who might
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: be paralyzed, who might not be able to be as mobile.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: Amen, God is with you.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: God saved your soul, and he's able to save your soul.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: And guess what the body that we have right now,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: the body that you might not be functioning, that you
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: might have that might not be functioning the way others function.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: Do you know on the other side in heaven? Amen,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: stay alive though, Stay alive. Don't commit any type of
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: suicidal thing over your own body. But listen to this.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: Today is the day that God saved you, Amen, And
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: this is the day that He has made. So rejoice
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: and be glad in all situations. I know that might
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: sound like I'm trying to push back and water things down,
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: but I'm being as loving as I can because sometimes
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: people just need to hear the truth. Well, all the time,
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: people need to hear the truth and the truth in love.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Today is a new day. Have you noticed?
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: Yesterday is gone, Today is new, and tomorrow's not even promised.
• 10:13

• 10:17
  Speaker 1: in which God has saved me.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: So that's exciting to me because I'm like, Wow, I'm
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: still here. I'm able to preach the gospel, I'm able
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: to read the Word, I'm able to pray to God,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: I'm able to share something from the Word of God.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: I'm able to devote some time in the mornings. I'm
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: able to connect with souls and people. I'm able because
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: God allows us to be who we are. God allows
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: the availability.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: So we are focused, we are present. It's a new day,
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: and we are here, and we are in God's plan.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Amen. There's so much more for us.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: If you find yourself in a situation right now that
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: you might be like this is hopeless, Well go to
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: the one who gives you hope, hope when you're hoping God,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: that hope never disappoints. Trust me, believe me when I
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: tell you God is real. It's true to his word.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: He's true to his promises.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: All his promises are yay and Amen. So when you
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: see a promise, when you hear a promise from the Lord, amen,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: bank on it.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: One.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: It might not come as soon as you would want
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: it to come, or as soon as I would want
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: it to come. But it's coming, and God is faithful
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: to his word. Man, he enables Amen as soon He
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: gives us the ability. And the waiting process is not easy.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: I will admit that sometimes when you're waiting on a promise,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: you're like God went Amen, like I need you like
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: a sap, I need you yet, like yesterday, Amen, and
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: it seems like God shows late, but he's always on time,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: and you know what, you could testify he shows up
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: right on time.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: I was having some.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: Financial issues Amen this week, and I'm like, why is
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: this year starting like this for me?
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Amen?
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: Because I don't I took responsibility for my own finances.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: I don't.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: It's very rare that I asked for help financially.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: Amen. I'll try to figure it out.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: But yesterday I had to call my wife an axer
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: for a loan a small amount, wasn't nothing big, but
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: we had to do a transaction that I have to
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: put back right away because we don't usually do those
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: op transactions with our money. I was on my way
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: to share my testimony Amen in a program called Transformed
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: Amen at a friend of mine's church, and it was
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: a pilot run. It was we did it like if
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: there was a million people in the room, but it
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: was just very few, closed invited event right to get
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: feedback of how they thought it would be, if there
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: was anything we could do better whatever about. So I
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: was on my way to that, and of course the
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: enemy works over time try to get me out of things,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: try to get you out of things. I had to
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: be there a certain time and I was running late.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: I had light went out, and in my area, the
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: police they do their job. When they see headlights out,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: they will pull you over. So I figured, if I
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: get pulled over, I'm gonna be so late to that event.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: And I don't want to be late because this is
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: the first time we're rolling it out a man in
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: the community.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: So I had to get a headlight.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: Then I had to put the headlight where it belongs
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: to have a foreign car behind that, so the light
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: on the driver's side. Amen, It's not in a place
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: where you can easily access it. And I have small hands,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: and I call it a knuckle breaker to get to
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: the light. Then when I first put it on, it
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: didn't work. And then I was like, Lord, I gotta
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: get to this I gotta get to this place and
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: my godson. I had to drop off my godson first
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: and then travel to the local church near me, and
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: I was already fifteen minutes late. Long story short, I
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: just said, I trust you God. I knowed to get
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: there on time. I know your word is gonna go through, Amen,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: in this event is going to happen because it's been planned.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: It's biblical.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: It was a gift that God had given my friend,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: pastor or preacher, Matthew Prasil, Amen.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: And I knew it was going to go forward.
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: I've decided. I said, listen, today's your day. God lead
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: this day, all of it. And I got there in time.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: Amen. Light was working. Amen.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: There was enough for me to get there. Finances Amen,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: because God will not let you down.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: I let you down.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Then on top of that, I received something in the
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: mail that's going to help me for the rest of
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: the week.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: And I'm able to put money back into the account,
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: and I'm able to make sure everything's running properly. That's
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: the God I serve.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: So if I would have worried or complained, I think
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: I would have messed things up. But I got out
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: of the way and just trusted God because today is
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: the day that the Lord has made. And I will
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: be glad and rejoice. You're saved, Amen, if you're alive

  Speaker 2: Is that easy?
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Well, it was challenged yesterday in my life.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: I don't know about you.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: I was challenged yesterday to have joy and the grace
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: and truth of God. But I decided I'm stubborn with
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: the word. I really believe in the word. And when
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: the enemy tries to act up, or tries to throart
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: something or push back something or delay something, I'm like,
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: I'm not in your kingdom, mind your business, devil, a man,
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: I'm in the kingdom of God. And we function differently,
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: and we have the true, living, holy, righteous, loving God
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: in us, working through us. He's on our side, He's
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: for us. So who could be against us? Greater is
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: he who is in a believer, a child of God,
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: than he who is in the world. The enemy is
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: in the world. The system that this world has, it's
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: not the system of the Kingdom of God. It's the
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: system of the Kingdom of darkness. And we're in the
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Kingdom of lights. We have what we need. We have
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: the Father in heaven who sees our needs and provides forever.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: Singing one of those I'm testifying because yesterday it wasn't there.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: And then thanks to some loving help from my wife
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: and my mother in law. She doesn't know yet, but
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: we pressed through and I got to the place where
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: I needed to be on time.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: Amen. That's God.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: Trust him. I'm telling you, he will never let you down.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: He he will never put you to shame, he will
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: never abandon you, he will never forsake you. He will
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: never turn his ears away from you. If you're a
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: child of God.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: There's nothing that God cannot do. But we have to
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: respond to his word. We have to believe that this
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: is a new day. This is a new day. It's
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: a fact. This is not spiritual. I woke up, Amen.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: That's not supernatural. It's a gift though, and it will
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: be supernatural when I apply the word of God in
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: my life. It is supernatural when you wake up and
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: you apply the word of God in your life. Today
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: is a new day. God made the day. Today is
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: the day that you are saved.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: Amen. Today is the day of salvation.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: The Word of God says, this day in which God
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: has saved you is the day which the Lord has made.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Rejoice and be glad in it. That's every day when
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: you wake up. Yesterday might have been the worst day
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: of your life. But guess what, God and his grace,
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: in his grace and in his truth, woke you up
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: for a new start, a new day. Can everything be
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: changed around? And one day probably it could happen. But
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: I know for sure that yesterday's gone. None of us
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: could get back to yesterday. As a matter of fact,
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: on the other side of the world, they're in tomorrow someplace,
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So when we celebrated New
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: Year's over here on the East Coast, in the Northeast
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: and other places around the world, there was already new years.
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: So today is the day which God has saved you
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: and Me's that exciting. We're saved, being saved, continually being saved.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: We don't know what the enemy was trying to do.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: The enemy is always trying to take us out. He's
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: always trying to steal from us. He's always trying to kill,
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: he's always trying to destroy. But God, the gift of
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: God through Jesus Christ promises us, promises and gives us
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: eternal life.
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: Who won this war for our soul? Jesus. Amen.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: So you could get ahead and rebuke the devil if
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: you want, but I'd rather say Jesus and Jesus, I
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: rebuke you. In Jesus name, I rebuke you. Right, Jesus
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: rebukes the devil. Jesus defeated the devil. And this coming
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: a time which in my theological mindset it already has happened,
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: is the finished work that we're benefiting from.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: The scripture says that.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: Jesus is going to give him a final SmackDown to
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: throw them into the lake of fire where he will
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: be burning for all eternative A man. I got an
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: email this morning about a guest that we would like
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: to come on and share some theological discussion about does
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: God really have a hell that we will be burning in?
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: And my simple answer to that will be like, no,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: Hell was built not for humans first and foremost theologically.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: It was built for the devil and his fallen angels,
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: a man for the punishment, but as human beings. I
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: think we got nosy enough to see where that was
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: and why why are.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: Humans in there? Because the choice right?
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: And I don't think God is burning anybody in Hell.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: Think Hell was designed to burn the devil up and
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: his fallen angels, and it's a place where that's going
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: to happen.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: I don't think God is at the door of Hell
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: making sure everybody's burning. I don't think that's the God
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: we serve. So I don't know if I'm going to
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: accept the invitation to interview a man. I'm gonna pray
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: about it, amen, because it already sounds like something is
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: being tested or something's being challenged, and it is not
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: for debate.
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: Amen. We don't do the Morning Deals for debate.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: But if God says go ahead and connect, I'm gonna
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: got ahead and connect. So I'm gonna pray about it.
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: Help me pray about that situation. Early in the morning,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: I got the email from this person's publicist or this
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: person's social media engagement person to go through some ideas
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: of a book that he wrote.
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: Amen, so we're good. We're good on this side. Man.
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: I don't know what today is gonna bring right.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: The day has its own worries, the day has its
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: own problems. I just trust God today and every day.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: I trusted him yesterday. Amen, he came through. I'm trusting
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: him today. I believe it's gonna come through. And if
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: he allows me to have tomorrow a mama, I'm gonna
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: trust him again. The enemy hates all of God's creation,
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: especially the children of God, because we have to trust
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: in the Lord. And no matter what happens, no matter
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: what weapons formed against us, we know we win. We
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: know we prosper, we know we continue. There's no weapon
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: that's gonna take us out. A weapon will be formed,
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: But we're children of God, the Almighty God, right, the
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: Warrior God, the Wonderful Counsel, the Prince of Peace, Almighty God,
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: Omni President, all knowing God. So we don't lose a
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: Christian we really even don't die. We just change locations.
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: But in the meantime, let's be farmers. Let's sow seeds
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: of eternal life. Let's go preach the gospel. Let's go
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: reach somebody right now with a hug, with a smile.
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: I have a verse in one of my rhymes that
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: I say that I provoke thugs with hugs. I don't
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: provoke thugs, So let's fight My goy's better than your Now.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: I provoke thugs out there, people who need help, hope.
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: A man with a hug. Amen.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: And I know a lot of times when I do that,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: they push back. A lot of these eyes on the streets,
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: and then the gangbangers and all that they push back
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: because they probably don't know my motive, or there could
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: have been something in their background in life that is
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: hard for them to embrace another man physically, whatever the
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: case may be. The love of God always overcomes the
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: love of God, the God's love, God's mercy, God's grace.
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: A man overcomes all of that. Amen.
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: And the love and the forgiveness of God overcomes of
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: multitude of sins. We have our faith place, not in faith,
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: not in religion. We have our faith place and our
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: trust place in the Lord and Savior, the Lord Jesus
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: so Psalms chapter one, eighteen. Read the whole psalm for yourself.
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: But we camping out verse twenty four. We say this
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: a lot, and it's true. Amen, It's not a cliche. Right,
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: this is the day that the Lord has made. Will
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: be glad and will rejoice in it.
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: Amen. I mean what you're gonna do. You're not gonna
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: be glad.
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: You're not gonna rejoice, So you're gonna be angry, to
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: be upset, You're gonna be disappointed, You're gonna be complain.
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: Are you gonna do those type of things that actually
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: the Lord tells us not to do. Lord tells us
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: not to worry. Lord chelles not to complain does not
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: mumbling complaining doesn't do anything. And men and I do
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: that jokingly every day in my house and my mother
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: in law saying, you're always mumbling and complaining.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: But I'm literally joking. I'm not.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: I'm really I rarely complain. Do I complain? Sometimes?
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: Yes? Men?
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: This world, man, this system is not like lining up
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: with the Word of God is actually is prophetically But
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like a lot of times
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: you're like, man, why are these people not responding responding
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: to the gospel message. Why do they hate Jesus so much?
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: Why do they hate the scriptures? Why do they hate
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: Christians so much? Or why are they persecuting Christians around
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: the world. Why are my brothers and sisters on the
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: other side of the world getting killed the martyrd for
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: their faith. If this is all, may believe it, this
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: is all true. Why is this such an attack on
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: a Christian life?
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: Amen?
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: So I don't joke about those things. But in my
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: house I joke about the little things about food and
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: money and all that stuff. But I'm just joking because
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: I know I'm blessed. I know you're blessed. You have
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: everything you need to live this life out in godliness
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: and righteousness. You have the financial breakthrough because we serve
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords who
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: owns everything.
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: You have the blessing of healing. We will lay our
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: hands on the sick and they shall recover. God will
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: bless your life. Whether he's going to heal you on
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: this side of eternity or not, He's definitely gonna hear
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: you on the other side. This is our earthly side,
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: and we have a heavily side coming soon right, so
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: I hope you're blessed. Thank you so much for coming
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: through to our morning DeVos.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: If this is your first time again, I'll welcome you
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: right now in the name of Jesus. And also make
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: sure you join an email list. There's going to be
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: some events like the event that I was at yesterday.
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: Amen, which you won't know about it.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: If you don't email lists, you would know about it
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: if you wish all my emailings. So God bless you all,
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: God keep you all, and remember always that God is good.
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: Peace,
