Boldness and Faith [Morning Devo] · The BLAZE (Bible Study)

• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Wanting family. Good morning, got blessed you. Welcome back to
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: the morning Devo. It's a new week, a new day,
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: another week, another day, Amen. And it's a new day.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Yesterday's gone, although we had a good time yesterday, Amen,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Glory to God. But today's a new day, a new start. Amen.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: So we could be bold and we could be in
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: our faith. So today I want to combine those boldness
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: and faith today in the morning Devo. And what am
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: I talking about talking about this? Come to God believing
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: he hears you. That's the first and foremost. Why would
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: you pray to God if you have this idea in
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: your mind that he doesn't hear you, he won't respond,
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: or anything like that. So when you go to God,
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: believe that he hears you and he will respond according
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: to his will. Very important. It's not the will of man, right.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: So I don't pray to God asking for my will
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: to be done. I pray to God asking for his
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: will to be done in any situation that I'm in.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: He has a perfect will, perfect plan, perfect perfect for
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: your life and for my life. No coincidences. Everything happens
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: on purpose, for a purpose, and on purpose. Amen. So
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: we are here for a reason, Man, Boldness and Faith.
• 1:26

• 3:45
  Speaker 1: that they will annihilate the tactics of the enemy, and
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: that we will move forward in victory, and we will
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: move forward forward with boldness and faith. I pray peace
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: over every single situation right now, over my life, my wife,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: all children, our grandchildren, our families, both sides of the family,
• 4:02

• 4:05
  Speaker 1: person in between. That I pray the same prayer over

• 4:10
  Speaker 1: and on the other side of this mic. And the powerful, matchless,
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: highest name above all names, in the name of the
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Lord Jesus, is Shiwahamashiek, the one who is coming back soon.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: But in the meantime, Lord God, we give you glory
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: right now as we stand in faith and bold faith,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: knowing that you are able to hear our prayers and
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: answer them according to your will and your purpose and
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: the powerful name of Jesus. I prayed. It's by faith
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: and those who agree with the power of prayer to Jesus,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: in Jesus, because of Jesus, we say Amen to the Amen.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: So let's go forward. Help me share this out sixty seconds.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: When we come back we'll get right into today's scripture.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: I'll be right back, and thank you so much for
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: helping me share this out for those sixty seconds, Amen,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: And don't forget to like, comment, subscribe, so that way
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: we can move this further out to many more people
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: who are willing to listen. You have to have an
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: ear to listen. You don't have to want to listen
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: to these type of morning DeVos, because if you don't
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: want to listen, you're gonna keep it moving, keep on scrolling. Amen.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: God has drawn people to himself. He's not drawing people
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: to me, right, So I understand that, and I'm willing
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: to take the risk of sounding weird to people right
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: for the sake of the truth, for the sake of love,
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: for the sake of grace, Amen, the grace of God,
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: the truth of God, the love of God. If I
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: sound weird, then people keep on streaming, streaming other places,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: keep on scrolling for other things. Amen. But I believe
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: truly that God draws people to himself. And once you
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: get this message in your heart, embedded in your mind,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: in your heart, amen, and you start applying these principles,
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: you start looking at the word of God. I believe
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: that God will transform your heart, transform your mind, transform desires. Right,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: the desires that you had before to do x y
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Z will no longer be the same desires once Holy
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: Spirit God is inside of you. Amen. I believe that
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: one hundred percent. I know that one hundred percent just
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: through experience, Amen, and of course through life to His word. Amen.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: And we benefit because God is faithful to his word.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: We benefit as believers, sons and daughters of the Living God. Amen.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: So let's put this word on the screen for those
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: who are just listening. No worries, no problem. I'm going
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: to read this word for words, so that way no
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: one misses a beat. Bonus and faith today in the
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: morning Devo and the Hebrews Chapter four, verse number sixteen.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: This is the word for today. Therefore, let us, with
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: privilege approach the throne of grace, that is the throne
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: of God's gracious favor, with confidence and without fear. That's
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: the boldness right there. When we approach the throne of
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: God's gracious favor, we approach him with confidence and without fear.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: Why because we have access now to the throne room
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: of grace, So that way we may receive mercy for
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: our failures. God never fails. We fail. We may receive
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: mercy for our failures and find His amazing grace to
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: help in time of need, an appropriate blessing coming just
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: at the right moment. God is always on time. Haven't
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: you notice that I need God now? And then he
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: doesn't show up according to your understanding, According to my understanding. Man,
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: when he shows up, it's perfect timing. I know it.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: We'll get a little anxious sometimes be like, man, God,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: where are you? I need you now? And guys like
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: I know when to come to your situation. I know
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: when the perfect time is. So that means that we
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: have to trust in God's timing. We have privilege. We
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: could approach the throne of Grace, where the throne of God,
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: where the Lord is seated, and we could approach him
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: with confidence and without fear. Very important to have bonus
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: and faith combined, so that way people including us first right,
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: will know that this is a true word. There's an
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: on time word. A privilege. Are you kidding me to
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: go to the throne room? And we're not talking about
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: just like a regular room, escape room, or a room
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: in your home. We're talking about the throne room. Of grace,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: the power of God's grace and mercy, where the Lord
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: is seated, the heavenly thrown. We're talking about to go
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: with boldness and faith, big time, big picture, Amen, big faith, boldness. Amen.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: The word of God is true every step of the way.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: So we fail, we don't lose. Amen. God never fails
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: and God never loses either. So you get you get
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: the combination. There, you get the idea there, Amen, that
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: God is here. He's there in your situation, he's here
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: in my situation. And that's why we have boldness and faith.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: No more bragging about what we can do. A man,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: I don't even brag about what God has done and
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: what He can do in your life and in my life.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: Go go ahead, and you're going to brag about someone
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: brag about the Lord Jesus, not about yourself. So God
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: believes in us before we believe in him. Isn't that crazy?
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: For God so loved the world that he sent God
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: wasn't afraid to come down to this earth on a
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: rescue mission. Right to save us. Jesus, our Lord, did
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: not come to condemn the world, but he came to
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: save the world to give us a purpose. Right to
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: give us love, grace, mercy, to rescue us from our
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: very own selves, transform us, renew us, redeem us, restore us.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: So God believed in us before we believed in him.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: Getting that, that's amazing, that's next level. That's like, wow,
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: are you serious? And when you look in the mirror
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: and when you see the flaws that you deem to
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: be flaws, right, just think of this. God loved you,
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: flaws and all men, and he never made a mistake
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: in his life. God is an eternal being. He has
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: no beginning, he has no end. So being that God
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: has no beginning, and being that God has no end,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: that means he's an eternal being. But we are here
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: for a short amount of time in this flesh of
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: bones and blood. Right, but we filled with Holy Spirit God.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: Once we put our whole faith and trust in the
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Lord Jesus, he rescued us, He saved us, He forgave
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: us amen, and now He's given us the promise of
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: eternal life. So when we approach God, we approach him
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: with bonus and faith because his word is true. There's
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: never a time where God's word fails, never a time
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: where God's word loses his strength or his strength. There's
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: never a point in time that God has been absent.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: His presence is omnipresent, His knowledge is all knowing. His
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: wisdom is way able, the wisdom of this world. His
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: thoughts are not like our thoughts. His ways are not
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: like our ways. So when we approach this Lord, this God,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: this Savior Amen Yahweh, the Father, Jesus, the Son, Holy
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Spirit ruock Klohem, when we approach him three and one
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: were approach him with boldness and faith. Right has nothing
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: to do with pride, because the Word of God says
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: that God resists the proud right, but he is close
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: to the humble, like he draws us close to him,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: humbling us. Right, we're humbled enough to know that without God,
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: without the Lord, Amen, we can do nothing, but with
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Him we could do all things. That's boldness and faith. Right. There,
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: there's another scripture. Put this together with James Chapter five
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: and sixteen. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: and effective. And what makes a person righteous because we
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: go to church is because we know the Bible, we know,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: we remember rite scripture, because we hang out with a priest,
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: a prophet, No, none of that. What makes us righteous
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: is God is righteous, and once His righteousness right is
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: poured into us, then we are righteous. The Bible says,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: God is holy, so we are holy. God is righteous,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: so we are righteous right. The Bible says that once
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: you're born again, you are now able with bondness and
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: faith to call yourself a child of God, because Jesus
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: is the only one who gives us the right the
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: privilege to be called children of God. I know people
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: are going around saying, listen, we're all children of God.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: We all serve the same God. Doesn't matter if it's
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: Jesus or Muhammed, or Islam or Christianity or Judaism, it
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: doesn't matter. We all serve the same God. Well, if
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: that's true, then we all have the same word. And
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: we know that's not true. Amen. So when we approach Jesus,
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: when we approach the throne room with grace where he's seated, Amen,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: we come to him with boldness. He responds according to
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: his will, not according to our will. I know it
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: seems like people praying things happen the way they wanted
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: it to happen in their prayer. Amen. But really it's
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: God's will. If you speak God's word over your situation,
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: you're actually speaking God's will over the situation. If you
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: pray God's word over your life and over your family's life,
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: you are actually praying God's will over yourself and your
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: family's life. If you go into hospitals and laying hands
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: on us sick and praying the healing of prayer according
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: to the scriptures, Amen, go to the elder, to the church.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Elders of the church, grabs some oil, annoint that person.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: That person will be healed and forgiven for their sins.
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: Or if you pray that according to the scriptures, you're
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: actually praying God's will will over the situation. You ever
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: heard someone say, if it's God's will? I say that sometimes, Amen.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: And I say that lightly because I know the will
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: of God is perfect and the will of man is not. Amen,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: So I say, if it pleases you Lord, right, because
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: it's up to God. God gets the final say in
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: every situation. Good or bad. People are like, well, why
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: would God allow bad things to happen? I don't think
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: God's allowing bad things to happen. I think bad things
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: happen because we live in a falling, broken world. Amen,
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: Our brother Adam sinned and it's just chapter three, read
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: it faceself, and that caused a ripple effect fall for
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: all this time that we've been here, right, sin entered
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: into the equation sickness, disease, death because we weren't created
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: to die. We were created to live forever. So think
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: about it. So we lost paradise Genis chapter three, and
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: then the revelation Jesus comes with a new heaven and
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: a new Earth. So paradise gained. So we have hope,
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: we can trust, we can believe, we can move forward
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: in victory. We could know what we know and apply
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: what we know and live this life according to the
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: will of God in our lives and through our lives,
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: preaching the gospel, planting seeds of eternal life, knowing that
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: we could go to the throne room of grace through
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: prayer because righteous now we have the righteous robe of
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: the Lord Jesus on us. It's amazing how much we
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: have that the demons know we have, the devil knows
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: we have, and yet people going around mocking us and
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: say we don't have exactly what the word says, right.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: It's amazing how people say Jesus never said he was
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: God and of Jews at his time knew. The Hebrew
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: people at Jesus time knew exactly what he was talking about.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: That's why they accused him of blasphemy, right making Jesus
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: equal with God. They knew what Jesus was talking about.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: It's amazing that we don't know sometimes what he was
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: talking about. When we have the scriptures, if you're reading
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: the scriptures uninspired. I say this a lot. If you
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: don't have holy spirit and you're reading the scriptures and
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: you're going and talking to a holy ghost field Christian
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: and saying I read the Bible from cover to cover,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: this errors, there's this, there's that, and you're uninspired. I
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: think we're just being humble and not saying nothing and
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: be like, Okay. You could get ahead and read it educated,
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: you could read it as a history book. You could
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: get ahead and read it any way you want to
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: read it. But if you don't have the spirit of God,
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: you won't know the spiritual things in the world of God.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: You won't understand the spirit of God that's speaking through
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: the work if you don't have His spirit living inside
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: of you. So before, back in the day before I
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: was saved, I used to read the Bible. I was
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: a Catholic Amen, and my friend was a Jovah's Witness,
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: and we used to compare scriptures through those two bibles,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: a Catholic Bible and the jovah Witness New World Translation.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: And we're reading it uninspired. He didn't have Holy spirit.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: I didn't have Holy spirit. So we were looking at
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: each other and saying, man, these things look different, right,
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: these things speak differently. Right. Then we would close the
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: Bibles and go ahead and smoke, drink and do all
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: this kind of loose living because we were uninspired. We
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: thought we were making an effort to find things out,
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: but actually what we were doing was just curious and
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: wanted to know a couple of things. Didn't understand what
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: we were reading, didn't understand how to apply. They didn't
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: understand who was speaking through the scriptures. A man. We
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: were just reading a book in our way of thinking
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: at that time. So I know what I'm saying when
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: I say uninspired reading of the scriptures, that's not it.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: That's not it at all. Right. So when we pray,
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: we pray with boldness and faith. When we speak, we
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: speak with bondness and faith. When we show up in
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: a situation that needs prayer, we show up with bondness
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: and faith. We ask the Father right to really help
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: us to come to the situation a man with his
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: holiness and love, thanking God for every day because every day.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he'd noticed, but every day is
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: a day of grace. Right. God didn't have to wake
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: me up this morning, but because of his grace, he
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: woke me up. Praise God, and he woke you up.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: Praise the Lord. Right. God didn't have to provide anything
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: for us, yet we have what we need to live
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: another day. How little that is or how much we have,
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. Really. We all have to know that
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: it's the grace of God that provided every single thing
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: for us and through us, and because of him we
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: could do things that we thought were never possible. In
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: our own strength, we know it's not possible, but with
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: God and man, all things are possible. We confess sins, right,
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: we ask for forgiveness photo sins and guess who forgave
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: us already. I know it seems weird that we keep
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: on asking God to forgive us for our sins when
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: technically He already has forgiven us for all the sins.
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: Think about it a man. But that's why he knows
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: to patience with us. God is patient with us. A
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: man will read his word, will apply his word, and
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: still sometimes not get the fact that we are in
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: perfect union with God through Holy Spirit. He already has
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: forgiven us once for all eternity, for the sins that
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: we sin, yesterday, today, and forevermore. He's forgiven us. As
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: a matter of fact, he separated us from those sins
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: as far as east is the west, and last time
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: I checked east, eternal east and eternal west never meet again. Man,
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: that's God's word. So just be grateful for all the
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: ways that God has blessed you. Even when we didn't
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: see God moving and the blessing God was still the blesser. Right,
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: even when you need strength, you could get ahead and
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: ask God with boldness and faith for that strength, ask
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: Him for wisdom, ask him for peace today. That's a
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: huge prayer, Lord, give me peace. People say, ah, that's
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: that's that's simple. That's basically that's not really not simple
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: and basic. In the world that we're living in, chaotic
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: world that we're living in. Right to find peace in
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: chaos is a miracle, and God is the Prince of peace.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: The Lord Jesus is the Prince of peace, and he
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: gives us peace. We have peace with God right because
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: of Jesus. Now we have the peace of God. Why
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: because of the Lord Jesus. Amen. So when you pray
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: for peace, that's a huge prayer, and God answers that
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: according to his will and purpose. But wherever there's peace,
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: if you see a peaceful situation, you could know that
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: there used to be some kind of turbulentce so, some
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: kind of problem with some kind of chaos before that
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: peace showed up. Amen. You don't think so, Read the
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: book of Genesis. You don't think so. Read Revelation, Amen,
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: because from Genesis to Revelation, you'll see that there was
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: times in history that peace wasn't there. As a matter
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: of fact, right now in the Middle East, people are
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: praying for peace in the Middle East, not because it rhymes.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: It's because there's so much chaos in the area. But
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: we know one day there will be eternal peace. We
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: know one day Jesus could crack open the sky and
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: come back and return for his church. We know one
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: day that the Prince of Peace is going to give
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: peace eternally for those who put our faith hope and
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: trust in Him. But on this side of eternity, when
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: you pray for peace and God gives it to you
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: in a situation, I'm not saying internal peace because we
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: already have that with Holy Spirit. Tell him about external peace,
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: peace around you, peace wherever you go. I went and
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: trade that for a million dollars. People say, yeah, you
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: would somebody offered you a million dollars to stop preaching
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: or stop teaching Sam you would take it and you
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: would just go away and you would never speak of
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: the Lord again. No, that's not true. Because God, the
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: Lord Jesus, he gives me the peace that is worth
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: more than silver and gold, at least for me. I
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: don't know about you, but I'd rather have peace in
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: my life than have millions of dollars and live a
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: chaotic life or go back to my old ways, which, man,
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: I know it's not true. The old way don't work.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: So why would I go back to the old way
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: that doesn't work when I'm having the way, the truth,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: and the life right now. Because a bold faith of
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: a believer and a prayer of a righteous person aveilth
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: much has much power, its powerful and effective amen and
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: because of the grace of God. I can have confidence
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: in God because of the grace of God. You could
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: have confidence in God. So when we approach God's throne,
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: let's approach God's throne with boldness and faith. It's an
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: amazing idea. Speak to the Lord. He will listen. So
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: you could actually ask God, Lord, can you hear me?
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: When God responds? Because God hears those who are crying
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: out to him. Something about those who are arrogant and proud. Remember,
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: the Bible says that people missed this part. The Bible
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: says that God resists the proud. He resists the proud. Amen.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: So if you're going to God, as like an experiment said,
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: let me see if this guy is really telling the truth.
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: Let me go to God because God owes me x
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: y z, and let me see if he really responds.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: You think that's gonna move God. You think God's gonna
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: respond to a person who's arrogant and full of pride.
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Amen. If you're asks him to be saved,
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: I believe he will respond because he's the Savior. I
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: was arrogant, full of pride, arrogance, lust, all that. When
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: I called on God as a matter of fact, when
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: I called on God my testimony, I was drunken high.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: So God still heard my voice, He still heard my
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: prayer because he knew my heart was sincere. I was
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: literally even though I was arrogant, and when I was
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: asking God to do my life and I was prideful
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: and I was, you know, threatening him as if I could,
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: he knew I didn't know any better, and he knew
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: that I needed the grace of God. He could have
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: just snapped his finger and annihilated me at that point
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: for my arrogance, for my disrespectful ways. But he met
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: me in my darkness. He found me in my darkness
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: and gave me the transfer from that darkness into his
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: marvelous light. And he met me where I was to
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: take me to where he is right And if I've
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: been a changed man of his since, people have testimonies
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: like that as well. It could be a woman of
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: God right now. You could testify a man of God
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: right now, and testify a born again believer for a day.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: You could testify that you feel the goodness of God
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: and the grace of God, the mercy of God. Do
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: you know, as soon as you got born again you
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: have access now to the throne room of grace. You
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: could boldly approach God, the God who loves you, the
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: God who saves you, they who rescued you, Amen, the
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: God who gave you this born again experience, the God
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: who gives you eternal life, bondness and faith. We can
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: approach him that way. Amen. And that's not arrogant, that's
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: not prideful. That's his will, that's his word. Hebrews Chapter four,
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: verse sixteen. Let us then approach God's thrown a grace
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: with confidence, confidence in the confirmation of God's word. Not
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: confidence in the control. Is confidence in the confirmation. Amen.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: I have no control of this day, do you right?
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: Do you know exactly what's gonna happen today? I don't,
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: And if you do, you know, let me know in
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: the live chat what's gonna happen in my life today.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: And I probably won't entertain it too much, but I
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: respect it enough to read the comment. So I'm out
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: of time here. But listen, God is faithful to his word,
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: and his word is amazing. His word is alive. His
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: word is a double edged sword, sharper than any double
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: edged sword. His word is able to do exactly what
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: his word will do. And as a matter of fact,
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: God's word is his will. When you speak God's will
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: over your situation, get ready, God's will will do what
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: God's will is according to do it's purpose to do
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: in your life and in my life. So come to
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: God believing that he hears you and will respond according
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: to his will. And his will is his words. So
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: go ahead and read he Was chapter four, the whole
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: chapter we camped out in verse number sixteen, and I
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: gave you a bonus scripture of James chapter five, verse sixteen.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: You can read those two together, Amen, and you'll realize
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: how good God is if you haven't realized that already.
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: So out of time, So thank you so much for
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: hanging out with me for this morning. Devo, God bless
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: you all. Got to keep you all and remember always
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: that God is good. Pace
