• 0:28
  Speaker 1: He is in control of all your situations and he knows everything about you and this beautiful day, this beautiful morning.

  Speaker 1: Don't be mistaken by it and don't think that he is not in control or he doesn't know what's happening with you.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: He knows everything that's happening with you and he's into every minute detail when it concerns you and your life and things pertaining to what you need in every aspect of your life and things pertaining to what you need in every aspect of your life.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: He knows it.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: And Jeremiah 29.11 says For I know the plans, and another version says I know the plans and the thoughts that I have towards you, plans of peace and well-being and plans with a hope and a future.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: Hallelujah, meditate on this word, jeremiah 29 11.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: And I want to tell you this morning that the day you accept his son, the day you have accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior and what he did on that cross for you and me, and that he was raised on the third day, and today that he is seated at the right hand of God.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Jeremiah 29.11 is a line to you and and me and I'll read it again for you this morning, for I know the plans and thoughts I have towards you Plans of peace and well-being, plans with a hope and a future, oh, hallelujah.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: So God is telling you today.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: He knows the plans that he has for you and he has a plan for you.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: You are not just floating in thin air as life goes by, just in case that thought ever crossed your mind that I'm just going along.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: No, no.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: And I want to tell you this that if you aren't seeing things going the way that you want them to, that's probably not because that's probably because that's maybe the place God does not want you at the moment.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: You might want to be there or you might want that situation to pan out in that particular way, but God has his own timing of things and I'm here to give you the good news this morning that he has a plan for you.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: He has a plan for you and me.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: He has a plan for all of us.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: And today, through the word of God from a beautiful, beautiful Psalm of King David and I'm getting straight into it Psalm 37, the first and the second verse.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Psalm 37, the first and the second verse and you can take your time out and mark this psalm in your Bible and meditate on it in your own time.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Psalm 37, the first and second verses Do not fret because of evildoers, nor be envious of the workers of iniquity, and I'll come back to it.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: The second verse says for they shall soon be cut down like grass and wither, as the green herb.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: And this Psalm starts with saying to not look at what is happening with others and to be envious about it.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Oh, we know what this is.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: It's so easy to look at others and you know what.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: It's just human, so there's nothing wrong with it.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: It's so easy to sometimes look at others when things are not going your way and to say why, lord?
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: Why for them and not for me?
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: And you say why, lord?
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Why for them and not for me?
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: And I'm reading it again Psalm 37, 1 and 2.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Do not fret because of evildoers, nor be envious of the workers of iniquity, for they shall soon be cut down like grass and wither, as the green herb, and I understand because I've been there too.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Oh Lord, why for them and not for me?
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Why for this person and not for me?
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: Why for that person and not for me and it refers to this scripture here as workers of iniquity, which is, as our worldly wisdom says, immoral and wrongdoers.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: Sometimes you don't know what people do, you just see the outward and you want that.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: And again, I told you it's.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: There's nothing wrong with it, it's just how we are.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: And I want to tell you this morning for that time is limited and it will be cut short and it will wither away, so don't be anxious or envious or even fret about anything or any kind of things that you see happening with others that you want in your life.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: I am here to tell you the good news this morning that God will do it for you.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: Oh, he will do it for you, and I told you this morning, I will give you this answer through the word of God.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: And I'm going straight into the next verse.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Psalm 37.3 says Trust in the Lord and do good and dwell in the land and feed on his faithfulness.

  Speaker 1: He has already given it to you.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: You need to believe it.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: The Bible says in 2nd Timothy If we are faithless.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: Oh, if we are faithless, he remains faithful.

  Speaker 1: I've told you multiple times before and I will say it again there's not a single word that's placed incorrectly in the Bible.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: It's beautiful, and today this psalm is telling you and me we have so many things that we delight ourselves in, but this morning I'm urging you to delight yourself also in the Lord.

  Speaker 1: Oh, it's so simple.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: Just get up in the morning and say good morning Jesus.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: It's as simple as that.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: It is as simple as that and you will relate to it.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: If you have any form of a relationship with anyone on this planet, you know just a good morning when you get up is just such a fabulous overlap.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: A relationship with anyone on this planet, you know just a good morning when you get up is just such a fabulous overlap to have with anyone.

  Speaker 1: You think he doesn't want your good morning.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: Oh, delight yourself in the lord.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: Get up in the morning and say a good morning to jesus, or read his word, before you start doing things of the world like reading the news or checking your phone and your tabs and who's messaged you and who.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: This work situation is burning up right now and needs your intervention immediately.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: Oh, don't bother about it.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: Delight in Jesus first.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: And it's not me, it's the bible that says and he shall give you the desires of your heart.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Oh, hallelujah, hallelujah, oh, he shall give you the desires of your heart.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: It doesn't say might, doesn't say at, doesn't happen between 9 to 12.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: It happens only from 3 onwards.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: It doesn't say that.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: It says he shall give the desires of your heart, oh, hallelujah.
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: But delight yourself in the Lord.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: And there are so many ways of delighting yourself in the Lord.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: Everyone is different.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: And you delight in him and he will give you the desires of your heart.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Psalm 37.5 says commit your ways, ways to the Lord, trust also in Him and he shall bring it to pass.

  Speaker 1: You want to doubt it?
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Oh, I cannot help you if you want to doubt it.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: But the word of God says, and the Bible also says I am watching over my word to perform it.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: That's a present continuous.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: I'm watching over my word to perform it.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: And that word this morning for you is to commit your way to the Lord and trust in him, and he will bring it to pass.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Leave everything at his feet, or take a decision this morning, and whatever your situation might be all of us have different situations going on and different benchmarks of where we need to be, at what timelines, and I'm not getting into that but leave everything at his feet, leave the plan to him, commit your way to him, commit your ways to him and trust him blindly.

  Speaker 1: Oh, he shall bring it to pass.
• 11:41
