  SPEAKER_00: And this morning at the well, we want to look at that.
• 2:21
  SPEAKER_00: Give us eyes that see, minds that understand, and hearts willing to receive.
• 2:29
  SPEAKER_00: Father God, we can't do nothing but give you praise, glory, and honor because you're good to us.
• 2:35
  SPEAKER_00: And we thank you.
• 2:36
  SPEAKER_00: There is none like you.

  SPEAKER_00: Father, I just praise you this morning.

• 2:46
  SPEAKER_00: Father God, thank you for meeting us here at the well.
• 2:50
  SPEAKER_00: Thank you.
• 2:51
  SPEAKER_00: In Jesus' name I pray.
• 2:53
  SPEAKER_00: Amen.
• 2:55
  SPEAKER_00: Well, sisters, this is the Passover week.
• 2:58
  SPEAKER_00: And in the Gospel of John, the 19th chapter, verse 25, the NIV, it reads, Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother, his mother's sister, Mary, the wife of Cleophus, and Mary Magdalene.
• 3:21
  SPEAKER_00: While others fled out of fear, these women remained present.
• 3:28
  SPEAKER_00: They stayed at the very moment when God was providing the ultimate provisions for all of humanity.
• 3:38
  SPEAKER_00: See, often we think of our daily bread only as the things that make us comfortable.
• 3:46
  SPEAKER_00: Our bills are paid.
• 3:49
  SPEAKER_00: There's food on our table.
• 3:51
  SPEAKER_00: We have a roof over our head.
• 3:55
  SPEAKER_00: We have clothes on our back.
• 3:58
  SPEAKER_00: We drive a car.
• 3:59
  SPEAKER_00: We have money in the bank.
• 4:02
  SPEAKER_00: But look, sometimes our daily bread is not comfort.
• 4:09
  SPEAKER_00: It is simply the strength to stand.
• 4:15
  SPEAKER_00: Just to stand one more day.
• 4:18
  SPEAKER_00: Here's the connection.
• 4:19
  SPEAKER_00: You see, the women, well, the woman at the well, remember she came daily to get physical water, but that was her daily bread.
• 4:31
  SPEAKER_00: But when she got to the well this particular day, she found a spring of life.
• 4:37
  SPEAKER_00: Now that was her daily bread.
• 4:41
  SPEAKER_00: The Israelites in the desert, they received manna daily to survive their journey.
• 4:48
  SPEAKER_00: But when you read the scripture, it also tells you that their shoes never worn out.
• 4:56
  SPEAKER_00: That's daily bread.
• 4:59
  SPEAKER_00: The women at the cross received a daily bread of courage to endure the sorrow of the crucifixion.
• 5:12
  SPEAKER_00: Imagine you're married, and that's your son upon that cross, and you stand, and you stand, and you watch, and you stand, and you watch.
• 5:30
  SPEAKER_00: Have mercy.
• 5:42
  SPEAKER_00: During Passover, we remember that God provided the greatest bread of life, Jesus, his only begotten son.
• 5:55
  SPEAKER_00: These women were the primary witnesses to that sacrifice because they chose to stay close.
• 6:05
  SPEAKER_00: They saw the bread of life broken.
• 6:10
  SPEAKER_00: Broken so that he could make us whole.
• 6:20
  SPEAKER_00: Think about that.
• 6:22
  SPEAKER_00: He was broken so that we could be made whole.
• 6:27
  SPEAKER_00: And because that provision is something we need every single morning, Jesus taught us to call out for it daily, saying in Matthew chapter 6, verse 11, give us today our daily bread.
• 6:44
  SPEAKER_00: Remember, his disciples ask him, Lord, teach us how to pray.
• 6:50
  SPEAKER_00: Our focus is on verse 11.
• 6:52
  SPEAKER_00: Give us today our daily bread.
• 6:57
  SPEAKER_00: Sisters, daily bread is our multifacet gift.
• 7:04
  SPEAKER_00: It can be food for your tape, but it also can be endurance for a journey that feels too long.
• 7:18
  SPEAKER_00: Quiet faith when the world is too loud.
• 7:24
  SPEAKER_00: Peace that surpasses all understanding.
• 7:30
  SPEAKER_00: You see, these women who stayed close to Jesus had a different experience than those who watch from a distance.
• 7:39
  SPEAKER_00: See, if you remain near Jesus, you will experience the living water and the true daily bread.
• 7:48
  SPEAKER_00: This type of relationship brings us deliverance, healing, freedom, protection, and peace.
• 8:01
  SPEAKER_00: Let's look at this.
• 8:03
  SPEAKER_00: During the first Passover in Egypt, the people ate unleavened bread because they had to be ready to move at a moment's notice.
• 8:13
  SPEAKER_00: Likewise, our daily bread from God gives us the readiness to face whatever this specific day holds.
• 8:28
  SPEAKER_00: During Passover, we must remember that our daily bread is not just what God gives.
• 8:37
  SPEAKER_00: It is.
• 8:39
  SPEAKER_00: It is who God gave.
• 8:43
  SPEAKER_00: The women in John 19, verse 25 stood close enough to see him, even when it hurt.
• 8:52
  SPEAKER_00: Sisters, are you standing close enough to receive what he has for you today?
• 8:58
  SPEAKER_00: Are you standing?
• 9:00
  SPEAKER_00: Are you standing?
• 9:03
  SPEAKER_00: Let's pray.
• 9:05
  SPEAKER_00: Father God, during this Passover season, teach us to stay close to you.
• 9:11
  SPEAKER_00: Lord, give us our daily bread.
• 9:14
  SPEAKER_00: Not just food, but the courage, the strength, and the faith we need for just this day.
• 9:23
  SPEAKER_00: Just like the women who stood at the cross.
• 9:26
  SPEAKER_00: Father, help us to remain near you in every season of our life through the joys and the sorrows.
• 9:36
  SPEAKER_00: Help us to maintain that quiet faith in you when the world is too loud.
• 9:43
  SPEAKER_00: Help us to have endurance, to stand and withstand.
• 9:48
  SPEAKER_00: Lord, give us that peace that surpasses all understanding.
• 9:54
  SPEAKER_00: Father God, be with us and before us, and we thank you again for giving your son your unconditional love to us.
• 10:04
  SPEAKER_00: Thank you, Lord.
• 10:05
  SPEAKER_00: In Jesus' name we pray.
• 10:08
  SPEAKER_00: Amen.
• 10:09
  SPEAKER_00: Sisters, it's short, but it's good.
• 10:14
  SPEAKER_00: I thank you for spending this sacred time with me at the well.
• 10:19
  SPEAKER_00: As you go about your day, I encourage you to remain near to Jesus.
• 10:26
  SPEAKER_00: Do not wander off when things get difficult.
• 10:30
  SPEAKER_00: Stay close enough to feel his presence.
• 10:33
  SPEAKER_00: Remember, he is our peace for all occasions.
• 10:40
  SPEAKER_00: And he is our daily bread for every season of life.
• 10:46
  SPEAKER_00: He is the only one who loved us enough to let God be flight so that we might truly live.
• 10:59
  SPEAKER_00: No one's got the state to it.
• 11:01
  SPEAKER_00: The hell both women at the foot of the cross is available to you too.
• 11:07
  SPEAKER_00: What do you think of that?
• 11:12
  SPEAKER_00: Just ask these.
• 11:25
  SPEAKER_00: Oh means.
• 11:30
  SPEAKER_00: Who will give her feast?
• 11:32
  SPEAKER_00: That's the past of all understanding.
• 11:35
  SPEAKER_00: I'm Rose, your host.
• 11:38
  SPEAKER_00: I'm telling me again, stay proud, stay faithful, and stay at the world.
• 11:44
  SPEAKER_00: Be blessed.
• 11:45
  SPEAKER_00: Remember, this water's living, and the world is deep.
• 11:49
  SPEAKER_00: Enjoy your day.
