- 4:59Speaker 1: two twenty four. Father God, I thank you that you
- 5:03Speaker 1: continue to protect God and guard us in these perilous
- 5:06Speaker 1: times that we're facing. We're in a tough time, Lord Jesus,
- 5:09Speaker 1: and I know you know that. But you said in
- 5:11Speaker 1: this world we will have trials tribulation. But you also
- 5:15Speaker 1: told us to be of good cheer because you have
- 5:17Speaker 1: already overcome this world system. We're just waiting for your return.
- 5:21Speaker 1: We're waiting for your promises. Your word is true, your
- 5:24Speaker 1: promises are all yea and amen. We thank you so much.
- 5:27Speaker 1: I thank you so much for those promises. I pray
- 5:29Speaker 1: low God, I heade your protection over myself, my family,
- 5:32Speaker 1: my wife, our children, over every single person that's watching
- 5:36Speaker 1: or listening right now, that you will protect them, guard them,
- 5:38Speaker 1: guide them, set forth your arkward angels, minister angels, warring
- 5:42Speaker 1: angels to annihilate the tactics and plans of the enemy
- 5:45Speaker 1: over their lives, as you do the same over my
- 5:47Speaker 1: life and my family's life as well. Thank you, Lord God,
- 5:50Speaker 1: that you are in control and that you are not
- 5:53Speaker 1: surprised by what's going on in this world, and that you,
- 5:56Speaker 1: Lord God, know what's going to happen. You know what's
- 5:59Speaker 1: happening now, and you know what's going to happen in
- 6:01Speaker 1: the future. Thank you, Lord God, that we could put
- 6:03Speaker 1: our faith, hope and trust in you, because you are
- 6:05Speaker 1: the living, true, holy, righteous, loving God. And we can
- 6:10Speaker 1: trust you because you're faithful to your word, and you're
- 6:12Speaker 1: faithful to who you are and what you do continuously.
- 6:16Speaker 1: And you don't lose power, you don't lose strength, you
- 6:19Speaker 1: don't lose truth, you don't lose your holiness. Amen. You
- 6:22Speaker 1: are perfect one hundred percent all the time. So I
- 6:25Speaker 1: praise you, Lo God for that perfectness. I praise you,
- 6:28Speaker 1: Low God, for your your mighty, majestic ways. I pray,
- 6:32Speaker 1: Lo God, that every single person who doesn't know you
- 6:35Speaker 1: right now, your holy spirit will move them and convince
- 6:38Speaker 1: them and convict them and draw them close to you
- 6:41Speaker 1: so they too can have this everlasting favor and everlasting
- 6:45Speaker 1: life that you have promised us in Jesus name. I
- 6:48Speaker 1: praise by faith and all those who agree, we all
- 6:50Speaker 1: say amen and Amen, help me share this album. When
- 6:53Speaker 1: we come back. We'll get right into don't got time
- 6:56Speaker 1: for that on the Morning Deal library back s alright, right,
- 8:35Speaker 1: let's go for it, man, Let's see what's going on.
- 8:38Speaker 1: So put up a new app on the website to
- 8:43Speaker 1: see if it works. And it looks like it's working.
- 8:45Speaker 1: So when I go live, I don't have to go
- 8:47Speaker 1: over to the website and plug that in myself. It
- 8:51Speaker 1: automatically updates the website. So I'm shout out to the
- 8:55Speaker 1: app developer. So far, so good. I'm not going to
- 8:57Speaker 1: mention the name of the app yet until I realize
- 9:00Speaker 1: that it's really working all the time, so I'll shout
- 9:04Speaker 1: out to the app. And I've been asking for that
- 9:06Speaker 1: for a while when I go live, because there way
- 9:08Speaker 1: is there an app amen that will just let everything
- 9:12Speaker 1: else go live without me putting the code. And it's there,
- 9:15Speaker 1: so hopefully, so far, so good. Good morning, brother Frank,
- 9:18Speaker 1: Good morning, Sister Joyce and sister Joanne. May Lord bless
- 9:23Speaker 1: you and guys and Jesus name yes, amen, look at
- 9:26Speaker 1: that getting a blessing from brothers, Frank, Amen, thank you
- 9:29Speaker 1: so much for coming through, Thank you for your comment,
- 9:31Speaker 1: Thank you for your blessing. I'll take the pas from
- 9:33Speaker 1: our brothers and sisters who let's pray for one another. Man.
- 9:38Speaker 1: We know that we're entering in some sometimes that are uncertain,
- 9:44Speaker 1: but we could be certain of this that God is
- 9:46Speaker 1: with us, Amen. And who could be against us? When
- 9:49Speaker 1: God is with us and God is far us, who
- 9:52Speaker 1: could be against us? We need to be united. We
- 9:55Speaker 1: need to thank you Brandon Robinson for inviting me to
- 9:58Speaker 1: the United our presentation getting the name wrong right now, Sorry,
- 10:05Speaker 1: it's early in the morning. It was of time for unity,
- 10:10Speaker 1: put together by sister Ali, Amen, and it was a
- 10:14Speaker 1: time for unity, a prayer Amen for this political season,
- 10:19Speaker 1: for unity among the interfaith, unity among other belief systems,
- 10:24Speaker 1: and all that. We had a great time. God showed
- 10:26Speaker 1: up and we were praising the Lord through this time.
- 10:30Speaker 1: We need to continue to praise the Lord. Stay together
- 10:33Speaker 1: and then don't get involved with people that want to
- 10:35Speaker 1: pick fights. Amen. Guy's been showing me. This's all through
- 10:38Speaker 1: the scripture Tewod Timothy chapter two, verses twenty two to
- 10:41Speaker 1: twenty four. We don't got time for that. We got
- 10:44Speaker 1: time for peace. We don't got time for disunity. We
- 10:47Speaker 1: don't got time for distraction. We don't got time for bickering.
- 10:53Speaker 1: We don't got time for arguing and all that stuff
- 10:57Speaker 1: on this morning, Devo. We don't got time for that, Amen.
- 11:00Speaker 1: Got time for what the word says, and let's put
- 11:01Speaker 1: it on the screen, Amen, so that we could get
- 11:04Speaker 1: into it. Don't got time for that on the morning, Devo. Amen.
- 11:08Speaker 1: The Bible says in Second Typathy, Chapter two, verses twenty
- 11:11Speaker 1: two to twenty four, run from anything that stimulates youthful lust.
- 11:18Speaker 1: And you know what those things are. Everybody has them,
- 11:21Speaker 1: the youthful lust. Run instead, pursue righteous living, faithfulness, love
- 11:30Speaker 1: and peace. Pursue those things, enjoy the companionship of those
- 11:36Speaker 1: who call on the name of the Lord with pure hearts. Again,
- 11:44Speaker 1: I say, don't get involved in foolish, ignorant arguments that
- 11:50Speaker 1: only start fights. A servant of the Lord must not quarrel,
- 11:56Speaker 1: but must be kind to everyone and be able to
- 12:00Speaker 1: teach and be patient with difficult people. How real is
- 12:05Speaker 1: the scriptures man? How real is the apostle inspired by
- 12:10Speaker 1: Holy Spirit? Letting us know what it is for real,
- 12:14Speaker 1: it's our own youthful lust. When those things are stimulated,
- 12:20Speaker 1: we need to run away from those things. There's a
- 12:22Speaker 1: reason for that, and I think you know the reason
- 12:24Speaker 1: without me explaining the reason. When we were young, we
- 12:28Speaker 1: were naive, We were ignorant. We didn't know right from wrong,
- 12:32Speaker 1: truly right from wrong. We didn't know we were going
- 12:35Speaker 1: by most of our feelings. Unless you were born and
- 12:38Speaker 1: raised or in the church, unless you were born again
- 12:41Speaker 1: early in life in your youth, Amen, then you had
- 12:45Speaker 1: less of a struggle. For those of us who are
- 12:47Speaker 1: outside of the church looking in, who were raised in
- 12:50Speaker 1: a tradition of a religion or some kind of spirituality,
- 12:55Speaker 1: or we really were struggling with youthful lust. But the
- 13:02Speaker 1: Bible has an answer. Instead of that, pursue righteous living, faithfulness,
- 13:07Speaker 1: love and peace. Like I said the other day, you
- 13:11Speaker 1: could give me, or you could offer me any amount
- 13:14Speaker 1: of money, possessions, accolades, fame, fortune and everything. If I
- 13:18Speaker 1: have to leave my peace or if I have to
- 13:21Speaker 1: forfeit my peace for that stuff, I'm not doing it.
- 13:25Speaker 1: Peace to me a man is so valuable. It doesn't
- 13:29Speaker 1: compare to anything that this world offers at all. It's
- 13:34Speaker 1: not even close. Enjoy the companionship of those who call
- 13:38Speaker 1: on the Lord with pure hearts and have an opportunity
- 13:41Speaker 1: to do that. Yesterday, Praise God again. Brandon Robinson thank
- 13:45Speaker 1: you for the invitation be patient with difficult people. Why
- 13:50Speaker 1: because men got time for that, we don't got time
- 13:53Speaker 1: for that. I'm not saying ignore those people. I'm not
- 13:56Speaker 1: saying that they don't have relevance. I'm not saying that
- 14:00Speaker 1: they're not valued by God. I'm just saying the Bible
- 14:03Speaker 1: is clear, we're not supposed to be entangled with those
- 14:06Speaker 1: type of affairs. We're not supposed to be involved with
- 14:09Speaker 1: people that want to pick fights. Amen, you don't believe me, right,
- 14:14Speaker 1: That's that's the lighter part of the scripture when it
- 14:17Speaker 1: comes to not having this type of involvement. Right, I'm
- 14:20Speaker 1: gonna give you some bonus right here. We'll give you
- 14:22Speaker 1: some more spolen scriptures. Amen. This scripture right here says
- 14:27Speaker 1: it more plain words it. I know I had it
- 14:36Speaker 1: right here. Titus, Chapter number three, verses ten and eleven. Titus,
- 14:44Speaker 1: listen to this chapter three, verses ten and eleven. It's
- 14:48Speaker 1: the word of God New Covenant. Warn a divisive person once,
- 14:56Speaker 1: and then warn him a second time. Right, it's not
- 14:59Speaker 1: more and done. You give this person, this divisive person
- 15:03Speaker 1: another chance. I was given another chance. What about you
- 15:08Speaker 1: after that? After the two warnings? Have nothing to do
- 15:14Speaker 1: with him. You may be sure that such a man
- 15:18Speaker 1: is warped and simple. He is self condemned. Wind the
- 15:24Speaker 1: world what you want to walk around with, someone who's
- 15:27Speaker 1: self condemned? Wind the world which you want to walk
- 15:30Speaker 1: around with? People who are divisive, who are dividing instead
- 15:33Speaker 1: of uniting. Right, This nation that we live in supposed
- 15:37Speaker 1: to be called the United States, State of America, the
- 15:40Speaker 1: United States of America. If you're honest, you know that
- 15:44Speaker 1: we're divided States of America. You know that political season, agendas, genders, confusion,
- 15:55Speaker 1: religious ideas, wars, crime, you name it. We're divided by
- 16:04Speaker 1: those things. But the Kingdom of God is united. The
- 16:10Speaker 1: world means to see the men and women of God
- 16:14Speaker 1: rise up in unity, be at peace with one another.
- 16:19Speaker 1: Your denomination, my denomination. If we believe in Jesus as
- 16:23Speaker 1: Lord and Savior. If we believe God the God, the
- 16:26Speaker 1: Father of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Amen, If we believe
- 16:30Speaker 1: in a holy inspired Word of God, if we're trusting
- 16:34Speaker 1: in Holy Spirit God to work through us. Amen, we
- 16:36Speaker 1: should have no problems, no issues with one another. The
- 16:40Speaker 1: world is watching us. As soon as you say you're
- 16:42Speaker 1: born again, as soon as you say you're a Christian,
- 16:45Speaker 1: you're in the fishbowl, and once you're in that fish bowl,
- 16:48Speaker 1: start swimming. If you got to stare at the person
- 16:51Speaker 1: watching you, and men stare back. Just don't get involved
- 16:54Speaker 1: with people who want to pick fights. We don't got
- 16:58Speaker 1: time for that. This time is running so short. I
- 17:02Speaker 1: don't know about you, but I'm getting older. What about you?
- 17:05Speaker 1: Are you getting younger or are you getting older? We've
- 17:08Speaker 1: been saying these are the last days. I know that's true. Individually,
- 17:14Speaker 1: it's my I'm closer to my last day, hey man,
- 17:18Speaker 1: and so are you. Every day alive is one day
- 17:20Speaker 1: closer to the day that we're going to be out
- 17:22Speaker 1: of here. So let's make it count while we're here.
- 17:25Speaker 1: Let's love one another, let's pray for one another, let's unite.
- 17:29Speaker 1: Let's not get distracted by the politics. If you're on
- 17:34Speaker 1: the right, I can't, you know, talk to you. If
- 17:38Speaker 1: you're on the left, I can't talk to you as
- 17:40Speaker 1: believers in Christ. Excuse me, but that's a whole bunch
- 17:44Speaker 1: of nonsense. Are you kidding me? You're letting this system
- 17:49Speaker 1: of this world that's really being run by the devil.
- 17:53Speaker 1: The world's system is being asked this yesterday at the
- 17:58Speaker 1: event that I was at, some people got a little
- 18:00Speaker 1: tripped out because I said, who runs this world's system?
- 18:04Speaker 1: And some people under than breath said the Lord does. Man.
- 18:08Speaker 1: So I asked again, right, and then someone shouted out
- 18:12Speaker 1: the devil, and I said, there it is the Word
- 18:15Speaker 1: of God teaches that the devil is really basically the
- 18:19Speaker 1: king of this world system temporary, he's on a leash.
- 18:25Speaker 1: I know he doesn't have supreme power, supreme authority, none
- 18:28Speaker 1: of that. He's not sovereign, sovereign like our Lord. But
- 18:32Speaker 1: for the meantime, the system, if it's not obvious to
- 18:35Speaker 1: you already, the system, the world system, the governments and
- 18:39Speaker 1: all that are being run by him, influenced by him,
- 18:42Speaker 1: inspired by him, not being precreated or anything like that.
- 18:46Speaker 1: God places all authority in place for his purpose as plan,
- 18:50Speaker 1: but the enemy influences disease. You cannot trust him. So
- 18:56Speaker 1: as believers, we don't got time to be arguing with
- 18:59Speaker 1: people who want to convince us or try to prove
- 19:03Speaker 1: their point of If you're not in this one political party,
- 19:07Speaker 1: then you must not be a Christian or believer in Christ.
- 19:11Speaker 1: That's a dangerous statement. It's nonsensical to me. Amen. You
- 19:16Speaker 1: might have your reasons why you're affiliated, or you're a
- 19:20Speaker 1: part of a certain party. You might have reasons. Great,
- 19:23Speaker 1: I have my reasons too, but they all both sides
- 19:26Speaker 1: fall short of the glorious standard of God. Right, but
- 19:29Speaker 1: the Kingdom of God, let's talk that we're united, not divided. Right.
- 19:34Speaker 1: We have a king that is righteous, holy, always right.
- 19:40Speaker 1: It's all authoritative, all powerful, almighty, a man ever present, omnipresent,
- 19:46Speaker 1: all knowing. We serve a king of kings and the
- 19:50Speaker 1: Lord of lords. So we're supposed to be focused on
- 19:54Speaker 1: the author and perfect of our faith, not focused really
- 19:58Speaker 1: on too much about the kings of this earth. So
- 20:02Speaker 1: why are we divided again by politics? Are you kidding me?
- 20:07Speaker 1: I hear on the radio, I hear both sides. I
- 20:10Speaker 1: hear both sides. Democrats were republic I hear both radio shows.
- 20:14Speaker 1: I watch both. I want to hear both sides of
- 20:16Speaker 1: the story. But you know what I noticed, And some
- 20:19Speaker 1: of them are claiming to be believers. The radio host.
- 20:23Speaker 1: You know what I noticed. They're arguing the same points.
- 20:25Speaker 1: They're arguing the same thing. Only thing one is saying,
- 20:29Speaker 1: what's wrong with that? And the other one is saying
- 20:32Speaker 1: that's wrong. It's the same issues. It's incredible. But if
- 20:36Speaker 1: you just focus on the one side and you're not
- 20:39Speaker 1: listening to the other side, that's not Christ's life. Christ
- 20:43Speaker 1: gave us a listening ear when we were lost, busted
- 20:47Speaker 1: and disgusted and we thought that, you know, there was
- 20:49Speaker 1: no hope, we thought there was no purpose for our
- 20:52Speaker 1: lives or anything like that. He listened to our cry
- 20:56Speaker 1: what happened. We're not listening to both sides of the
- 20:58Speaker 1: story anymore. We're not listen to people's stories and why
- 21:02Speaker 1: they believe in this and why believe that. We're not
- 21:03Speaker 1: doing that anymore. We should have time for that. We
- 21:07Speaker 1: just shouldn't have time for quwn and fighting and backbiting.
- 21:10Speaker 1: We don't have time to get into people's business if
- 21:15Speaker 1: they want to start and pick fights. We don't have time.
- 21:17Speaker 1: We're supposed to be the peacemakers and the Bible and
- 21:20Speaker 1: Jesus says, blessed are the peacemakers. Believe in Jesus. Frank says,
- 21:25Speaker 1: all time and should receive blessing and time and pray
- 21:29Speaker 1: to the Lord. Let the enemy out of your system
- 21:32Speaker 1: and out of your home. Close the door and tell
- 21:35Speaker 1: the enemy stay out and don't come back. He mad,
- 21:39Speaker 1: that's right. We don't got time for him. We don't
- 21:44Speaker 1: invite the devil. Some people think that this is all
- 21:48Speaker 1: phony and fake, right, brother Frank, And they say, oh,
- 21:50Speaker 1: there's no devil. So if there's a devil, he can
- 21:53Speaker 1: come and hang out with me. Will party? You don't
- 21:55Speaker 1: want that? Or I've heard people say, oh, if there's
- 21:58Speaker 1: really a God, why doesn't any strike me dead right
- 22:00Speaker 1: now with lightning, As if you could provoke an almighty,
- 22:03Speaker 1: all loving, all holy, all righteous, all powerful, omnipresent creator God,
- 22:08Speaker 1: that you could provoke God just by saying, oh, if
- 22:10Speaker 1: you're real, coming, strike me with lightning. People sometimes to me,
- 22:16Speaker 1: are silly trying to provoke a holy, righteous God to
- 22:20Speaker 1: whatever you want God to do, right, commanding God to
- 22:24Speaker 1: do things. No, that's not the God that we serve.
- 22:27Speaker 1: The God that we serve as he's almighty but yet
- 22:30Speaker 1: a gentle spirit, and he doesn't want us to get
- 22:33Speaker 1: involved with civil affairs when it comes to fighting, when
- 22:38Speaker 1: it comes to arguing over political parties. As believers in Christ, Amen,
- 22:43Speaker 1: we have the Kingdom of God. We function kingdom principles,
- 22:47Speaker 1: kingdom minded, where united, not divided, the body of Christ
- 22:51Speaker 1: is put together, not set apart. We're set apart for
- 22:54Speaker 1: the glorious work of God got sanctification. We're born again
- 23:00Speaker 1: for a purpose and reason. For such a time as this.
- 23:03Speaker 1: God is not telling us to leave out of this
- 23:06Speaker 1: earth without, you know, leaving seeds of eternal life. Right,
- 23:11Speaker 1: We're supposed to do something while we're here, but we
- 23:14Speaker 1: shouldn't have time to argue back by slander and all that.
- 23:19Speaker 1: We don't got time for that. Proverbs twenty four one
- 23:26Speaker 1: and two. Do not every wicked men do not desire
- 23:28Speaker 1: their company for their hearts, plot violence, and their lips.
- 23:32Speaker 1: Talk about making trouble. Stay away from people who pick fights,
- 23:38Speaker 1: because I know, for one thing, I've always been like this.
- 23:40Speaker 1: I said it the other day too. If I'm with
- 23:43Speaker 1: you and when something goes down and I'm with you,
- 23:47Speaker 1: and man, I guess I'm going down too. I'm with you.
- 23:51Speaker 1: But if I know that you are habitually getting into
- 23:54Speaker 1: arguments and fights, I'm gonna have to step back and
- 23:58Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to advise you stop being that way
- 24:01Speaker 1: because I'm not gonna go with you. So you're on
- 24:04Speaker 1: your own one time. I'll warn you second time, I
- 24:09Speaker 1: want you. After that, I'm gonna stay away from you.
- 24:12Speaker 1: And Man, according to what the scripture says in Second Timothy,
- 24:16Speaker 1: Second Timothy, lead the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love,
- 24:22Speaker 1: and peace, along with those who call on the Lord
- 24:25Speaker 1: out of a pure heart. Don't have anything to do
- 24:28Speaker 1: with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels,
- 24:33Speaker 1: and the Lord's servant must not quarrel. Instead, he must
- 24:36Speaker 1: be kind to everyone, able to teach, not resentful. And
- 24:40Speaker 1: the other one that I was reading earlier says, warn
- 24:45Speaker 1: a divisive person once, and then warn him a second time.
- 24:49Speaker 1: This is Titus chapter three, verses ten through eleven. After that,
- 24:53Speaker 1: after you did your warning, after you advise the person
- 24:56Speaker 1: or the people list and I'm not going to be
- 24:58Speaker 1: involved in that anymore. Second morning, they continue to do it.
- 25:02Speaker 1: What do you do? You have time for that? No,
- 25:06Speaker 1: you do what the scripture says after that, have nothing
- 25:10Speaker 1: to do with him, And Man, I know it's a
- 25:14Speaker 1: fine line, right, it's right there, it's in our face.
- 25:17Speaker 1: We can't deny what the scriptures say. And you can
- 25:19Speaker 1: do that all with love. You don't have to, you know,
- 25:23Speaker 1: after that, say oh, I'm out of here because you're this,
- 25:26Speaker 1: that and the third, and start name bashing and calling
- 25:29Speaker 1: people all kinds of different things. No, stick to the topic,
- 25:32Speaker 1: stick to the issue, and man, if you have time
- 25:35Speaker 1: to whatever, you have time to prave, you have time
- 25:37Speaker 1: to hate, You have time to love a man. You
- 25:41Speaker 1: don't got time for hanging around people who want to
- 25:44Speaker 1: plot evil and who are after their own simple desires
- 25:49Speaker 1: and are plotting fights and violence and all that stuff.
- 25:52Speaker 1: We don't have time for that. If you're a Morning
- 25:54Speaker 1: Again believer and you find yourself and those kind of communities,
- 25:59Speaker 1: get out, run, pray and pray for repentance over their
- 26:03Speaker 1: lives as well. Amen, don't get involved, because we don't
- 26:07Speaker 1: have time for that. So I'm out of here. Ladies
- 26:09Speaker 1: and gentlemen, thank you so much for hanging out with
- 26:11Speaker 1: me for these morning devo sessions. Amen. I think we
- 26:15Speaker 1: enjoy our time and the word together. Right, So let
- 26:18Speaker 1: me just leave you all with a blessing. Make sure
- 26:20Speaker 1: you get into the scriptures for yourself. We were two
- 26:23Speaker 1: Timothy chatter number two. Read the whole chapter for yourself.
- 26:26Speaker 1: See what the Lord has for you, amen, and see
- 26:28Speaker 1: what the Word of God says, in its entirety, I
- 26:30Speaker 1: want to give you snapshots, Amen, and one of my
- 26:33Speaker 1: whole intentions for you to get into the Word for yourself.
- 26:36Speaker 1: So God bless you all. God keep you all, and
- 26:39Speaker 1: remember always that God is good. Peace.
