  Speaker 1: for your support since the very beginning. It's an inspiration
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: to me to know that God still has people out
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: there that are hungry for his word and one are
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: willing to apply his word in real time and not
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: just think about his word, but apply his word in
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: real time. Today we're talking about confidence in God. Confidence
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: in God. We're going to be in First John. Chapter
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: number five is a First John chapter number Let me
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: see chapter number five, verses fourteen and fifteen. Amen, Today
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: in the morning Devo with your brother Sam Lopez heka
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: DJ Sam Rock.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: And the reason why I do these morning DeVos.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: A lot of people acts and they say, how do
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: you get the content to do these morning DeVos every day?
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: It's simple. I go to the scriptures, I go to
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: my notes here, and then I ask God, what do
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: you want me to talk about? And what I don't
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: go through the trending topics. You will never see me
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: do that.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: That's why maybe I'm talking about a subject that it
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: was hot like two months ago and I'm talking about
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: it now because God didn't tell me to talk about
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: it two months ago.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: So I go with the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: of God. I rely on his guidance, and I know
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: he's speaking to someone every time we read his word,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: and sometimes as someone. If it ain't anybody, it's me
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: for sure, Amen, that he speaks to all the time
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: when I read his word. The word of Guy's alive,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: the word of Guy's active, The word of Guy's living,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: The word of God breathes life into you.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Is an incredible word that God does and through you
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: and through me, Amen, we could get somebody else to
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: get into this word. Amen, for themselves, so Edward could stay.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: That way, they could see the power of the Living
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: God through the scripture. So confidence in God. Our motivation
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: must be to advance God's kingdom and his glory. You
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: ever heard a person say, oh, we got to build
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: the Kingdom of God, or we got to build the
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Church of God. That's not right. Well, no human can
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: build the House of God. No human could build the
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Kingdom of God. We need to expand evangelists like we
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: expand the Kingdom of God the Gospel message.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: And whoever listens, whoever chooses to listen, Amen, they will
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: be blessed for listening. It will be blessed for applying
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: what they learned. It will be blessed for trusting and
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: putting their whole faith and trust in the Lord Jesus.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: Amen. So we're expanding the kingdom, not building the kingdom. Amen.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: So I used to say building the kingdom because that's
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: what I heard when I was a young believer.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: But I realized in the scripture says we're supposed to
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: expand the king The Kingdom of God is already built.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: God built it, and the Church of God is already
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: put together. God put it together a man who puts
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: all the pieces, all the parts together.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: So we're actually in the finished work of what Christ
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: already has done. But we need to move and be
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: eager for his return and be busy.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: About our father's business. Amen.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: First John Chapter five, verses fourteen and fifteen. Let's have
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: confidence in God. A lot of people have confidence in
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: this world system, confidence in their own things, confidence in
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: this and confidence and that.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: Well, how about placing your confidence in God. Amen.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: And that's going to be your goal. To have confidence
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: in something. Place your confidence in someone named the Lord
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: Jesus Christ. It's something called the scriptures the Holy Bible.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: And that confidence will increase because when you see that
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: the Word of God is moving, when you see that
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: the Word of God is evidence in your life. When
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: you see that the Word of God transforms you and
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: renewed you and restores you, redeemed you, and took you
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: out of drug addictions and sex addictions, and took you
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: out of the streets, and change your mind and satisfy
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: your soul. You're not going to want to go back
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: to the world. The world's going to be done with
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: because the world is old and decaying. The Word of
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: God is new and ever increasing and never expires.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: Amen. The Word of God is new, and the newness
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: of life is where it's at.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know about you, but when things get too old,
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: I look at it, I said, now, I don't want
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: to deal with it no more. I have equipment in
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: my garage that's so old that if I try to
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: plug it into my system, it won't read anymore because
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: it's not compatible anymore. I want to be compatible, not
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: only relevant. I want to be compatible to God's economy,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: to God's system, to God's kingdom.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: And I have confidence in God for it as well.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Let me just share this real quick to the group
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: so that way they know we're here.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: Amen. Thank you for your patience with me.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: So let's pray first. After we pray, we'll share this
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: off for like sixty seconds. And when we come off
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: those sixty seconds, Amen, we'll get right into First John

  Speaker 1: you had some inside information or whatever, who would you
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: reach out to to make sure that they know to
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: be ready and to repent if they have to repent
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: now a man, repentance is on the way to salvation.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: We have to turn.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: Stop what we're doing, the wicked stuff, the worldly stuff.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: Stop.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Turned to the Christ, the Lord and Savior, Amen, and
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: ask him to forgive you right now.
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: We need to do that right now. Amen.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Some people are in desperate need for that right now.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: So if that's you, listen, repent, turn from your wickedness,
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: stop what you're doing, turn from your wickedness, and turn
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: to the holiness of God. Holiness and righteousness will always
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: be a thing, especially in the Kingdom of God. This
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: world doesn't understand it. I was watching earlier today, of
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: all places, of all times, right, she's an evangelist, she's
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: a worship leader and a preacher, right, and just allows.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Her to do that. Amen.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: And I believe that's why she's so powerful in her ministry.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: And her husband backs up one hundred percent. But anyway,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: she was saying that the church is letting a lot
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: of people Church capital sy is letting a lot of
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: people on the pulpits to sing and worship and play
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: instruments because of their talents and gifts. But there are void
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: of anointing, righteousness and holiness. I was like, WHOA, that's
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: a tough message. I got to hear the rest of it,
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: amen and see if where she's going with that.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: But hey, she said it. I didn't.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: I'm just repeating that I thought it was interesting and
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: that she said that she has a lot of confidence
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: in God.
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: I don't want to mention your name because I don't
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: have permission, and you know, I don't want to start
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: nothing because I haven't saw the whole message, so I
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: don't want to vouch for the message yet.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: But I think she's an interesting person, her husband and
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: her dynamic duo.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: I've been following them for a while on social media.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: I don't know them personally. I've never been to their church.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: They just open up a new church, so but it'll
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: be interesting for an interview Amen, in the near future
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: with them, So God willing that will happen. Since to Joanne,
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: I see you, good morning, God bless you. Welcome back
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: to the Morning Devo, my sister and my friend. Amen,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: it's good to see you. And I just realized I
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: didn't share on the live stream on on the website,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: So let me do that asap as I get to
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: get ready to share on the script.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: The confidence in God. Who wants confidence? I want confidence
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: in God. Some people say I walk around with a
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: lot of confidence in God.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: Amen. Sometimes I don't see it.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: But just because I'm in the world all the time,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: it might be the reason why people think I have
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: confidence in this understanding and this knowledge.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: I truly literally rely on Holy Spirit God for every
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: situation that life throws my way. So it's nothing like
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: superdynamic or crazy special about what's going on.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: I'm in me and through me. It's all God pretre
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: I do. Amen.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: That's the Holy Spirit, Holy Spirit, God prussing you, not me.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: I'm not up here trying to gain likes or anything
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: like that. I'm just trying to be obedient to what
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: God had told me years ago what to do in
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: this world, and just moving forward with that. Amen, Moving
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: forward with that. Sometimes all you have to do is
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: show it. I believe God, trust God's word over your life.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Show up, amen, and be available.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: Let me just make sure, okay, we're here. Let me
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: put this on the screen. For those who are just listening.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: You already know I'm not gonna leave you out. We're
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: gonna we gotta you know, show you are gonna read
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: word for word everything that you don't see because you're
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: just listening. And I think audio will always be a
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: powerful tool for us to get into and to listen
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: to the word of God is powerful. First John, Chapter five,
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: Verses fourteen fifteen. This is the amplified version. This is
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: the remarkable degree of confidence which we as believers are
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: entitled to have before him, that if we ask anything
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: according to his.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: Will, very important people preach or just ask anything in
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: Jesus name, and you'll have it.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Know that if we ask anything according to his will,
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: God's will, Jesus, his will that is consistent with His
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: plan and purpose. Please get that part he hears us.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: That's if your prayers are not being hindered. Right, this
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: is full confidence in God. Your prayers are not being hindered.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: You're in right standing with the Lord. You're in good
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: relations with your husband and or your wife. You're in
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: good relations with people that did you wrong. You forgave
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: them already.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: All that is into play that if we ask anything
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: according to His will that is consistent with His plan
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: and purpose, he he hears us verse fifteen. When First John,
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: chapter five, first number fifteen. And if we know for
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: a fact, as indeed we do, that he hears and
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: listens to us in whatever we ask.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: We also know, when.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Settled an absolute knowledge, that we have granted to us
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: the requests which we have acts from Him. That's confidence
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: in God. Now we have to be careful. I know
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: I have to be careful. I can't go around saying,
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: even if I have so much confidence in God, God's
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: gonna do this, and God's gonna do this and do
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: this and do that in my life right going around
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: saying that when I'm not sure if that's what he said.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: In other words, I could be hearing. I was just
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: sharing with a passive friend of mine. Yesterday he called
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: me to see how I was doing. Listen, that's few
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: and far in between calls. And I'm very grateful for
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: all the brothers that call me every now and then
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: just to check up on a brother to see how
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: I'm doing a man, you believe it or not, I
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: don't get a lot of those calls, and I'm so
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: grateful when somebody reaches out and asks how am I doing?
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: Amen, and we have a great conversation from there.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: I literally told them what God had told me about
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: this ministry, what was going to happen in our lives
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: before my young daughter turns thirteen, turns becomes a teenager.
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: And it's a big thing that God I believe God
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: spoke to me, and of confidence that he spoke it
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: to me confident.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: But I also told him listen. If it doesn't come.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: To past I heard wrong, it's not that God, of
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: his lyings, that I must have heard something wrong. Because
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: we're entitled, according too the scripture, we have confidence as believers.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: We are entitled to have this confidence because God is real,
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: his word is real, his truth is always relevant. And
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: when he speaks a promise, those promises will come to pass.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: But we have to make sure that when we ask anything,
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: it has to be according to His will, not I
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: will will. If we ask anything, it has to be
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: consistent with the plan of God and the purpose of
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: planning over our lives. He hears us, and if we
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: know for a fact that He hears and listen to us,
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: and whatever we ask, we also know we're settled and
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: absolute knowledge that we have the request which we have
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: asked from him. Key to this is that we have
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: to be in his will. We have to have confidence
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: in what he telling, what he's telling us to do,
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: what he has sold us to do, Amen, and be
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: able to really work his promises out, work out our faith, Amen,
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: work out our salvation with fear and trembling. We have
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: to know what we know, what we know, what we
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: know to be true. How do you know something is true?
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: By the evidence? Search out the evidence and see where
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: the evidence leads to.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: And nine out.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Of ten times in my life, because it's ten out
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: of ten, but in my life nine and ten times
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: that I half this little percentage of doubt. Sometimes a man,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: I move forward quickly. Other times I hesitate and I'm like,
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: I don't know, God, I don't know if this is
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: you or if this is just me being eager to
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: go and do this and that. Amen, So I'm careful.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: Some people just go and walk by faith. They walk
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: on that water, praise the Lord.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: Amen. I love to see it, and one day I
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: hope to get that way when I grow up one day. Amen.
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: Good morning, it's the joyce.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Good morning, God bless you and Jesus name, Yes, God
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: bless you as well.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: Welcome back to the morning.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: Even my system and friend, and we miss you and
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: I'm praying for you and your family.
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: Amen. You've been going through a lot. Amen. I had
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: a tough week last week as well.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: So you know we can share that type of faith
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: with one another and we pray for one another.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: Amen, thank you so much for coming.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: But listen, have confidence in God. Don't have confidence in
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: your money and your talent and your gift because those
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: things money, talent, gift, the gift of God that He
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: gives you will put you in places that you would
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: never think you would be in. That's beautiful, right, but
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: that's temporary. That's on this side of eternity. Also, money,
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: money's fleeing, money goes, Money comes and money goes.
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: That's why I always say.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Especially in ministry, when there's an increase in Amen, you
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: know what I'm doing right finding ways to give it away.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: People think that's nuts. It's not a business model. I'm
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: in a Believers in Business network, Amen, and they asked,
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: what is your business model?
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: How do you make money? I said, I don't.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: I rely on Christ, Jesus, Holy Spirit God to make
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: the way. I'm not sitting in my studio doing nothing.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: I have a two four seven online radio network.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Amen. Radio Ministry.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: I have to work it or else it won't be updated,
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: or else you won't get any updates, no blog posts,
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: no new songs, switching, rotation, all that stuff in the
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: background that might sound boring to you, but it's exciting
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: to me. I love what I do in the ministry,
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: but man, I love God even more.
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: So I'm not going to rely on the ministry the tool.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: I'm relying on God, who gave me the tool, and
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: I gave it back to him a long time ago.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: I said, I don't want to mess this up. Lord here,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: take this ministry and make sure that I'm doing this right.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: Then he gives it back and be like, Okay, do this,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: do that, and.
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: Then it will work.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: So it's a twenty four to seven online radio ministry
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: that I'm running. People say, do you have any listeners?
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: It's amazing. I've been doing this since two thousand and eight.
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: When God calls you to do something, don't worry about numbers,
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: don't worry about status. Don't try to prove over and
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: over again to every single person who asks you, well,
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: do you make money or you have listeners?
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: Don't try to prove everything. Just do what God wants
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: you to do. Amen.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: Have confidence in God and He will guide you. He
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: will guard you, protect you. He will financially support his
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: mission through us and through what we are called to do. Amen,
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: He'll satisfy all those needs. He's the guy who sees
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: our needs and satisfy and provides for every single one
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: of them. Does again nerve wracking for me, of course. Man,
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: a lot of month and not a lot of money. Amen,
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: So sometimes my money runs out for the month. But
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: it's okay because I'm not the only one. I was
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: somewhere and I realized something that I wasn't the only
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: one in the situation where was I. It was an
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: eye opening thing. I forgot where I was, and there
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: was other people in the room and ministers in the
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: room that were like, yeah, Man, sometimes we're in the
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: red a lot and we just rely on God, trust God,
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: and the math doesn't line up, and then God boom
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: out of nowhere, takes care of this and takes care
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: of that. This is a faithful Amen. But while you're
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: having confidence in God, don't just sit down. Some people
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: just sit down right and they pray and they stay
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: in that seated position and think that God's gonna move
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: mountains and all this other stuff which he can on
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: your behalf without you responding to what He told you
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: to do in the first place. I can guarantee you
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: that if you're in the Kingdom of God. God has
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: told you to do something and be a part of
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: something and maybe be a part of a movement that
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: he wants you to start or me to start. But
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: then we're just sitting there wondering who's gonna do it. Well,
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: God has called you and me to do it. Sometimes
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: we're waiting for others to do something. Meanwhile, God said,
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: nobody's gonna do that. I told you to do that.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: And when you have confidence in God, you know whatever
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: he asks of us, just like we have confidence and
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: whatever we ask of him. Oh, listen, he's gonna do it.
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: He's gonna do it. But we have to be in
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: his will. We have to be consistent in his plan.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: A man and his purpose for our lives and individually
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: a man, he has a purpose and plan, purpose and plan.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: He always has a purpose in playing for everything that
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: he creates, everything that he does, everything that he says,
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: all the promises for your life and for my life.
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: A man, he doesn't waste our time, and he uses
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: the things that people don't think are wise, or the
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: people who people don't think of wise, He'll use that
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: to confound the wise.
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: Amen, because he's that good and.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: All you have to do is sometimes is just show up,
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: Brother Daniel, God bless you.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: I see you.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: Good morning, my bro, God bless you and your family.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: A man, Welcome to the morning, Devo. It's good to
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: see you here. But listen, I'm so confident in God.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: I know one day I'm not going to be here, Amen,
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: But I'm confident that I will be with Him for
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: all eternity. But in the meantime, especially as I'm an evangelist,
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: so you can't stop me talking about the gospel, you
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: can't stop me talking about the Lord Jesus. But in
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: the meantime, let's go and expand the message.
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: Of the kingdom. We don't build the kingdom. I know.
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: I used to say that because that's what I always
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: was used to hearing. And some people still say it, Oh,
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: we have to build the church and build the kingdom.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: No way, I'm building nothing. We're expanding what's already built.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: We're operating in the finished work of the Lord Jesus Christ.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: When Jesus said to tell us, did it is finished?
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: He paid the sind deb He exchanged himself for what
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: we deserved, and it is a finished work. He seated
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: at the right hand of the Father on the throne
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: a man. He promised that he's coming back, so we're
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: eager for his coming back.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: But in the meantime, we have work to do.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: And man, we're expanding his kingdom, expanding the Gospel message
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: throughout this earth a man. So when he comes back,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: the right number of people will have heard the gospel message.
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: God blessed brother, Mike.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: Good morning. Good morning to you as well. Amen, it's
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: good to see you, my friend and my bro. So listen,
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: that's what I had today, and man, I hope I
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: poured out enough. First John chapter five. Read the whole
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: chapter for yourself. We camped out of verses fourteen to fifteen.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: If you listen to it, if you read it, if
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: you're apply it, go to the amplified version of that
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: scripture and you'll get those words in between that emphasize
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: on what the thought is there. And man, you'll be
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: blown away. If you're in the will of God, go
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: for it. If you're not in the will of God, listen,
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: take time to pray, take time to get in the word,
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: take time for Holy Spirit to guide you and to
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: teach you. Amen, before you run forward without confidence. And
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: once you get this confidence, run man, go forward. Confidence
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: in God is perfectly okay in the Kingdom of God.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: For the children of God and for the people of
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: God to move. Man, let's move in confidence. That's not cockiness,
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: that's not arrogance. Amen, it's confidence according to His will
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: and his plan and his purpose for your life and
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: for my life.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: So I hope this blessed you. Man. I'm blessed and
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: I have more confidence. Now.
• 25:49
