Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Morning, Good morning, good morning. It is time for us
- 0:02Speaker 1: to go to God in prayer, and as always we
- 0:04Speaker 1: ask that you join along with us. And this morning
- 0:09Speaker 1: I had someone to call me in. She was sharing
- 0:12Speaker 1: with me. She and her son had kind of been
- 0:15Speaker 1: at odds with one another, and she was kind of
- 0:18Speaker 1: sharing some of the details of what was going on.
- 0:21Speaker 1: And bottom line, there are issues in the family where
- 0:24Speaker 1: folk on not getting along and you're arguing, you're bickering
- 0:28Speaker 1: back and forth. But somebody has to step up and
- 0:32Speaker 1: choose to handle things God's way. Somebody has to choose forgiveness.
- 0:37Speaker 1: I asked her a simple question. I said, are you
- 0:39Speaker 1: believing God or your son to be delivered? And she
- 0:41Speaker 1: said yeah. And I said, well, are you willing to
- 0:44Speaker 1: be the vessel the God will use? And she said,
- 0:46Speaker 1: well yeah, but sheer I I. The reality is that
- 0:51Speaker 1: means we gotta zip our lips sometimes. That means sometimes
- 0:54Speaker 1: we gotta pray and hush. Yes, they're gonna be coming up.
- 0:56Speaker 1: Yes we want to say something, and as God leads,
- 0:59Speaker 1: we don't just let stuff happen. But what I'm saying is,
- 1:03Speaker 1: if you keep arguing back and forth, sometimes we're making
- 1:07Speaker 1: the situation worse, or we're delaying God's deliverance. That could
- 1:12Speaker 1: be for your son, that could be for your daughter,
- 1:14Speaker 1: that could be for your husband, that could be for
- 1:16Speaker 1: that situation on your job. Father, God, in the name
- 1:20Speaker 1: of Jesus Christ, on this Family Day, I lift families
- 1:24Speaker 1: up to You and pray for the peace of our families.
- 1:27Speaker 1: For those that are maybe experiencing issues in the family,
- 1:31Speaker 1: where the sisters are not speaking to the brothers and
- 1:34Speaker 1: the mothers not speaking to the children, or the father's
- 1:37Speaker 1: not speaking to the children, or the parents are at
- 1:39Speaker 1: odds in the household. God, we pray for peace for
- 1:43Speaker 1: the family. You establish family, so God, we want peace.
- 1:46Speaker 1: We pray for healthy families that mimic You, where the
- 1:49Speaker 1: husband loves his wife like Christ loves the Church, and
- 1:53Speaker 1: the wife will submit to her husband. That the children
- 1:57Speaker 1: will obey their parents and honor their parents. Father, let
- 2:01Speaker 1: our families be a representation of You. Let us be
- 2:04Speaker 1: a representation of your love, of your forgiveness of doing
- 2:08Speaker 1: things your way. We pray for blended families on today,
- 2:11Speaker 1: that they'll be able to get along and coexist for
- 2:14Speaker 1: the betterment of their children. Thank you Lord for our family.
- 2:18Speaker 1: Thank You for blessing us with one another, to minister
- 2:22Speaker 1: to each other, to fellowship with one another, to meet
- 2:25Speaker 1: needs for one another. God, we trust you to bring
- 2:28Speaker 1: the solidarity in our families, to bring the peace in
- 2:32Speaker 1: our family, to bring the love in our families. And
- 2:36Speaker 1: let it begin, God with us in Jesus' name, Amen,
