Speaker 4: bless you. It's always a joy to come into your homes.

43
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 4: much for tuning in, and thank you again for coming out.

44
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 4: I like to start with something funny, and I heard

45
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 4: about this eighty five year old man. He was out

46
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 4: fishing one day and he heard a voice saying, pick

47
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 4: me up. Looked around, didn't see anything, thought he was dreaming.

48
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 4: Heard it again, pick me up. He looked down and

49
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 4: he saw a frog. He said in amazement, are you

50
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 4: talking to me? The frog said yes, pick me up

51
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 4: and kiss me, and I'll turn into a beautiful bride.

52
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 4: The man quickly picked him up put him in his

53
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,079
Speaker 4: front pocket. The frog said, hey, what are you doing.

54
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 4: I said, kiss me and I'll turn into a beautiful bride.

55
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 4: The man said, no, thanks. At my age, I'd rather

56
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 4: have a talking frog. Hold up your bible, say it

57
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,799
Speaker 4: like you mean it. This is my Bible. I am

58
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 4: what it says. I am. I have what it says

59
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 4: I have. I can do what it says I can do.

60
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 4: Today I will be taught the word of God. I

61
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 4: boldly confess. My mind is alert, my heart is recepted.

62
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 4: I will never be the same. In Jesus' name, God

63
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 4: bless you. I want to talk to you today about

64
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 4: how you've been framed. When we hear that phrase, most

65
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 4: of the time we think of it as a bad thing.

66
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 4: We've been set up, made to look like we did

67
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 4: something that we didn't do. But the scripture talks about

68
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 4: a different type of frame. It says the worlds were

69
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 4: framed by the word of God. It's not just talking

70
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 4: about the physical world. The word in the original language

71
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 4: is eons, meaning ages or times. It's saying God has

72
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 4: a frame around your times. He has put a fence,

73
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 4: a boundary around your life. Nothing can penetrate your frame

74
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 4: that God doesn't allow. Trouble, sickness, accidents, they can't just

75
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 4: randomly happen. The frame is set. You don't have to

76
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 4: worry about your future. There's a frame around your health,

77
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 4: a frame around your children, a frame around your finance.

78
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 4: It's a boundary set by the creator of the universe.

79
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 4: Not only can nothing get in without God's permission, but

80
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 4: even better news, you can't get out. You can't make

81
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 4: a mistake big enough to break out of that frame.

82
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:20,159
Speaker 4: You can't get too addicted, too discouraged, too angry. It's

83
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 4: a destiny frame. God won't let you get so far

84
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 4: off course that you can't still fulfill your purpose. You

85
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 4: may come right up to the edge, about to do

86
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 4: something to get you in trouble, and you'll bump into

87
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,919
Speaker 4: the frame. God will push you right back. Had a

88
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 4: man tell me how he was so fed up with

89
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 4: his boss. He'd worked at this company for many years,

90
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 4: and his boss was always condescending, making sarcastic remarks, and

91
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 4: this man had had all he could take. He was

92
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,479
Speaker 4: about to give his boss a piece of his mind.

93
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 4: He knew he'd get fired, but at this point he

94
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 4: didn't care. He had his speech all lined up, laid

95
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 4: in bed the night before, steaming and I'm gonna tell

96
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 4: him I don't like you, I don't need you, You're

97
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,479
Speaker 4: a lousy boss. On and on. He's gonna let it

98
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 4: all hang out the next morning. First thing, he marched

99
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 4: into his boss's office without knocking, all fired up. The

100
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 4: strangest thing happened. He got flustered. He couldn't remember what

101
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 4: he's gonna say. His mind totally went blank. He looked

102
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 4: at the boss and said, would you like a cup

103
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 4: of coffee? He said, Joel, I tried to tell him off.

104
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,680
Speaker 4: I tried to be mean. I just couldn't do it.

105
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 4: What happened he bumped into the frame. God knows how

106
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 4: to protect you, not only from accidents, not only from

107
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 4: the wrong people. God will protect you from yourself. Sometimes

108
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 4: we're the most dangerous thing we face at the family reunion.

109
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:52,239
Speaker 4: You're about to tell that relative off. Somehow you feel

110
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 4: a peace come over you, or they walk out of

111
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 4: the room at just the right time. That's not a coincidence.

112
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 4: You better thank God for your frame. Out on the freeway,

113
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 4: that person that cuts you off, you were about to

114
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 4: give them a signal with your hand, and I'm not

115
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 4: talking about one way. Jesus. You pull up next to

116
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 4: them so aggravated, throw your hand up. But instead of

117
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 4: doing what you thought, you just smile and give them

118
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 4: a big friendly wave. What happened? You bumped into your frame.

119
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 4: This frame has kept us out of more trouble than

120
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,600
Speaker 4: we realize. You better thank God for your frame, or

121
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 4: you might not still have a job. If it had

122
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 4: not been for the frame, we might not still be married.

123
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,600
Speaker 4: How many times were we going to tell our spouse

124
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 4: exactly what we think and exactly what they should do,

125
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 4: and we hear the still small voice saying, don't do it,

126
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 4: bite your tongue, walk away. We take the advice. That's

127
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 4: the frame. In the scripture, David experienced this frame. He

128
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 4: and his men had been protecting a man by the

129
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 4: name of Nabel. They were camped next door just to

130
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 4: do him a favor. They've made sure that no bandits

131
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 4: bthered him or his property, and one day David sent

132
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 4: men to go ask Nabel for some food. Nabel was

133
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 4: very rude. He told those men, I don't owe you anything,

134
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 4: I didn't ask you to do this, Just get off

135
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 4: my property. When David heard what Nabel had said, he

136
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,239
Speaker 4: was furious. He told his men pack up, We're gonna

137
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 4: go wipe out Nabel and anyone that's halfway associated with him.

138
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 4: This set David off as he headed toward Nabel's house, angry, offended,

139
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 4: ready to get even. God sent a young lady named Abigail.

140
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:41,119
Speaker 4: Abigail was Nabel's wife. She met David on the road

141
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 4: with gifts with food. She said, David, you are called

142
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 4: to be our next king. You are destined to do

143
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 4: great things. My husband, Nabel, he's a fool. Why are

144
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 4: you gonna waste your time fighting with him? You could

145
00:07:55,960 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 4: miss your destiny. She spoke sensing to him and said,

146
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 4: you're exactly right, turned around and went back home. You

147
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 4: know what Abigail was, She was a part of the frame.

148
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 4: God ordained her to be there at the right time

149
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 4: to know exactly the right thing to say. Had David

150
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 4: gotten distracted killed Mabel caused a big stir, that mistake

151
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 4: could have kept him from taking the throne. He went

152
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 4: right up to the edge, but he bumped into his frame.

153
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 4: God is so good he will always send the right

154
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 4: person to say the right thing to keep you from

155
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 4: missing your destiny. David said, where would I be without

156
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 4: the goodness of God? He could have said where would

157
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 4: I be without this frame. Jonah experienced the frame. God

158
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,960
Speaker 4: told him to go to the city of Nineveh. He

159
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 4: didn't want to go there. He said, God, that's what

160
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 4: you want me to do. I want to go my

161
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 4: own way. He went in the opposite direction. And God

162
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 4: will always let you do your own thing. He'll let

163
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 4: you go your own way. He's so merciful. At some point,

164
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 4: you're gonna bump into your frame. He let Jonah go

165
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 4: the wrong direction. Jonah ended up on a ship in

166
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 4: the middle of a huge storm. He finally told the

167
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 4: crew that he was the problem. This crew had no mercy.

168
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 4: They said, Jonah, you're the problem. Good riddance, You're out

169
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 4: of here. They threw him overboard. You would think this

170
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 4: would be the end of Jonah's life. He brought the

171
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 4: trouble on himself. He knew the right thing, but he

172
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 4: did the opposite. He had nobody to blame except himself.

173
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 4: I'm sure Jonah felt like he was finished, that his goodbyes,

174
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 4: made his peace. But what Jonah didn't realize was the

175
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,719
Speaker 4: frame God had put around his life. Yes he made

176
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 4: a mistake, but it wasn't outside the frame. Yes he

177
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:55,680
Speaker 4: was in trouble, but that trouble wasn't a surprise to God.

178
00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:01,080
Speaker 4: God allowed the difficulty into Jonah's frame, not to harm him,

179
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 4: but to push him toward his divine destiny. And when

180
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 4: it looked hopeless out in the sea, treading water, no

181
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 4: chance to survive, here comes a big fish and swallows

182
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:17,119
Speaker 4: Jonah up. You know what that fish was like, Abigail

183
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 4: part of the frame. Three days later, that fish spit

184
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,079
Speaker 4: him up on the dry ground. Jonah says, you know what,

185
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 4: I think I'll go to NINEB after all. Like Jonah,

186
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 4: you can run as much as you want, but the

187
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 4: good news is you'll never run out of your frame.

188
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 4: You'll keep bumping up against it again and again. It'll

189
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 4: always push you back towards your divine destiny. In other words,

190
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 4: you can go out and party, live it up, not

191
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 4: give God the time of day. But while your friends

192
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 4: are partying, while they're enjoying life, deep down you'll be miserable,

193
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 4: thinking why can't I enjoy this? Why am I so unsatisfied?

194
00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 4: It's because of the frame God's put on your life.

195
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:05,559
Speaker 4: You are ruined for living a defeated, mediocre, compromising life.

196
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 4: God's calling is on you. You can go your own way,

197
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 4: but God has a way of getting your back on course.

198
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 4: God has put a frame that you can't penetrate the enemy,

199
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 4: can't penetrate, drugs, can't penetrate the wrong people, can't penetrate

200
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 4: the most high. God has fenced you in. He's put

201
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 4: boundaries around your life so strong all the forces of

202
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 4: darkness cannot get in, and you cannot get out. And yes,

203
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,959
Speaker 4: we can make mistakes, we can run from the call,

204
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 4: we can try to ignore it. But the frame around

205
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 4: your life was put in place before the foundation of time.

206
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 4: When God breathed his life into you, he framed your world.

207
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 4: That's why parents, we don't have to worry about our children.

208
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 4: They've been framed. They may get off course, but sooner

209
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 4: or lay they'll bump into the frame. They may run

210
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 4: with the wrong crowd, but the frame is up. They

211
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 4: can't go too far to miss their destiny. They're gonna

212
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 4: bump into it again, again again, until they finally say,

213
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 4: I'm tired of fighting God. I'm gonna let you have

214
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 4: your way. I'm gonna honor you with my life and

215
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 4: some of you. Because you had a praying mother, you

216
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 4: had a praying grandmother, you had relatives that honor God,

217
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 4: you might as well give up. You don't have a chance.

218
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 4: Your frame is so set, you're gonna keep bumping into

219
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 4: it until God gets you to where you're supposed to be.

220
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:43,079
Speaker 4: I know this mother. She was so concerned about her son.

221
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 4: He was making very poor choices, and she tried to

222
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 4: convince him to quit running with the wrong crowd and

223
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 4: convince him to come to church. He just wouldn't do it.

224
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 4: He ended up in jail One Sunday morning. He was

225
00:12:56,280 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 4: watching television in the common area and another mate came

226
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 4: in and wanted to watch something different. They started arguing

227
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 4: and ended up in a struggle for the remote control,

228
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,319
Speaker 4: trying to get it out of each other's hands. About

229
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 4: that time, this huge inmate walked in six foot six,

230
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 4: looked like a professional football player, had these muscles bulging

231
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,560
Speaker 4: out of his shirt. He grabbed the remote control. He said,

232
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,439
Speaker 4: give me that thing. I'll decide what we're gonna watch.

233
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 4: Started flipping through the channels, and he came across our program.

234
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 4: He said, we're gonna watch Joel today. Those two inmates

235
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,719
Speaker 4: got up to leave. He grabbed the one young man

236
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 4: by the shirt and pulled him back down, says, sit down,

237
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 4: you're gonna watch with me. What happened. He bumped into

238
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 4: the frame, a really big frame, I might add, parents,

239
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 4: God has the right people not only lined up for you,

240
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 4: but for your children, for your grandchildren. Quit worrying about

241
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 4: them and start thanking God for the frame. Don't ever

242
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 4: go around telling your friends how your children are so

243
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,319
Speaker 4: off course and they're never gonna do what's right. Now,

244
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 4: zip that up and get in agreement with God. Lord,

245
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 4: I want to thank you that my children have been framed.

246
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 4: I've committed them into your hands. And Lord, you said

247
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 4: the seed of the righteous will be mighty in the land.

248
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 4: As this inmate was watching the program, with this six

249
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 4: foot six inmate making sure he watched, he began to

250
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 4: feel God's presence. He started weeping right then and there

251
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 4: in the jail. That big inmate led him to Christ.

252
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 4: Now I see this young man at our services all

253
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 4: the time, sitting next to his mother. You may not

254
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 4: see how it can happen. That's not your job. Your

255
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 4: job is to stay in peace, knowing that your children

256
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 4: have been framed. Your prayers are activating God's power. When

257
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 4: you pray, just imagine the frame is getting smaller, the

258
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 4: boundaries are getting tighter. God won't let them go as

259
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 4: far as they used to. He'll make them uncomfortable in

260
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 4: compromising situations. He'll won't let them enjoy doing wrong like

261
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 4: they did before. God knows how to tighten the frame.

262
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 4: When I was nineteen years old, I was driving home

263
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 4: from a ball game very late at night. There was

264
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 4: nobody on the freeway. I had a sports car and

265
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 4: the fastest i'd driven it was about seventy five miles

266
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 4: an hour. I thought this would be a great time

267
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 4: to see how fast this car will really go. So

268
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 4: one o'clock in the morning, five lanes of freeway in

269
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 4: front of me. I was on the top of a

270
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 4: big bridge. I could see about two miles down the

271
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 4: road and hardly anybody on the road, just a car

272
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 4: to here and there. So I put the pedal to

273
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 4: the floor, and that car took off, going so fast.

274
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 4: I'm not going to tell you how fast, because my

275
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 4: mother's sitting on the front road. But as I was

276
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 4: flying down the highway feeling so cool, I looked over

277
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 4: and there was a car right next to me. I thought,

278
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 4: I can't believe it. He wants to race. He can't

279
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 4: race me. He's got a piece of junk. And so

280
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 4: I put it down even faster, took off. I looked over.

281
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 4: There he was again, but this time when I looked,

282
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 4: he was holding up his badge. I nearly went to

283
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 4: heaven right then, and there my heart stopped. I looked

284
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 4: back over and he mouthed the words slowed down. I

285
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 4: drove thirty miles an hour the rest of the way home. Parents,

286
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 4: God has a frame around your children. Even when they

287
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 4: do dumb things, they can't get out of the frame.

288
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 4: God'll always have the right person, whether it's Abigail, a

289
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 4: six foot six inmate or an off duty police officer

290
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 4: going down the freeway at one in the morning. We

291
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 4: can't get out of the frame. Now, quit looking at

292
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 4: me like you've never done anything dumb. In the scripture,

293
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 4: there was a man named Saul. He was the biggest

294
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 4: enemy of the church. He hated believe he was having

295
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:04,439
Speaker 4: them put in prison, doing more harm to God's people

296
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 4: than any person of that time. One day he was

297
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 4: on the road traveling to Damascus, and a bright light

298
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 4: shine down on him, so bright that he fell to

299
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:19,360
Speaker 4: the ground and became blind. The voice said, Saul, why

300
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 4: do you persecute me? Don't you know it's hard to

301
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 4: kick against the pricks. God was saying, Saul, I've got

302
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 4: you in my frame. You're trying to kick, trying to run,

303
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,119
Speaker 4: trying to ignore it. But Saul, you have to understand

304
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 4: I set the frame. I have a destiny for you

305
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 4: to fulfill, and it's not to stop my work. It's

306
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,879
Speaker 4: to advance my work. Laying on the ground, not able

307
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 4: to see, Saul said, who are you? The voice boomed out,

308
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 4: I am Jesus, whom you persecute. Notice when people persecute you,

309
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 4: give you a hard time for honoring God, make fun

310
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 4: of you for coming to church. Don't let that bother you.

311
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 4: They're not really doing it to you, They're doing it

312
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:07,640
Speaker 4: under God. Saul was harming believers. Yet God said, you're

313
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 4: persecuting me. God took it personally. The voice told Saul

314
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:16,160
Speaker 4: to go to the city and see Anonius. Annius prayed

315
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,879
Speaker 4: for Saul. He got his sight back. Long story short,

316
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:23,160
Speaker 4: Saul became the apostle Paul, who went on to write

317
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 4: over half of the New Testament. Some of you think

318
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 4: that you're too far gone, made too many mistakes, people

319
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 4: tell me often, Juel, I'm just not a religious person. Listen,

320
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 4: none of that matters. All that matters is the creator

321
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 4: of the universe has put a frame around your life.

322
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 4: You can kick, run, try to ignore it. That's just

323
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 4: going to make you more miserable. Like God said to Saul,

324
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,919
Speaker 4: it's hard to keep kicking against the frame. The frame

325
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 4: is not going to move. There's a calling on your life,

326
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,400
Speaker 4: a destiny for you to fulfill. It has been set

327
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 4: there by the Most High God. The scripture even talks

328
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 4: about how God's calling is irrevocable. God's not going to

329
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 4: remove the frame the sooner you surrender and say God,

330
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 4: my life is in your hands. I'm gonna live for you.

331
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 4: I'm gonna get rid of these friends that are pulling

332
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 4: me down. I'm gonna get help with these bad habits.

333
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 4: I'm gonna get in church and serve and grow. I'm

334
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,199
Speaker 4: gonna pursue the dreams you've placed in my heart. The

335
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 4: sooner you do that, the happier and the more fulfilling

336
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 4: your life will be. You may have family members or

337
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,879
Speaker 4: friends like Saul, you've been praying for a long time.

338
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,640
Speaker 4: Doesn't look like they'll ever get on course. In fact,

339
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 4: the more you pray, the worse they get. Don't get discouraged,

340
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 4: stay in peace. Just like Saul. They've been framed. A

341
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:53,200
Speaker 4: part of this frame is a hedge of protection. God

342
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:57,120
Speaker 4: has a boundary around your life that the enemy cannot cross.

343
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,640
Speaker 4: Friend of mine was driving home from work the other

344
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,879
Speaker 4: day and he stopped at a light when it changed

345
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 4: to green. He looked to the left to the right,

346
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 4: just being cautious, But just as he was about to

347
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 4: go forward, something said to him so strongly, look again.

348
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,199
Speaker 4: He looked back to the right for a second time.

349
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 4: A car was coming full blast, never attempted to stop,

350
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 4: ran right through the red light. If he had not

351
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 4: looked the second time, he would have gotten broadsided. No

352
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 4: telling what would have happened. What was that The frame

353
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 4: if it's not your time to go, the enemy cannot

354
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:38,120
Speaker 4: take you out. The frame that's placed around your life

355
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 4: was put there by the most powerful force in the universe.

356
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:47,160
Speaker 4: That's why the Psalmist said, a thousand may fall at

357
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 4: my side, ten thousand at my right hand. I'm not worried.

358
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,920
Speaker 4: It can't come near me. I know there's a frame

359
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:59,400
Speaker 4: around my life. Nothing can happen without God's permission. Had

360
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 4: somebody come to me once about how they were hit

361
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 4: on the freeway. It totaled their car and they were

362
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 4: really upset, discouraged. They didn't know if the insurance was

363
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 4: going to cover it. It was a brand new car.

364
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 4: The feeling I got from them was that God had

365
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 4: let them down. He said, Joel, if I've got this frame,

366
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:21,160
Speaker 4: how come I had an accident? Well, keep the right perspective.

367
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,479
Speaker 4: You may have lost your car, but because of the frame,

368
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 4: you didn't lose your life. Because of the frame, you're

369
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 4: not paralyzed. Because of the frame, you can still see

370
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:35,440
Speaker 4: and talk and hear. I'm convinced God protects us from

371
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 4: so many things that we don't even realize. We think sometimes, well,

372
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 4: didn't have anything good happen to me, Just an average week. No,

373
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 4: you can thank God for what didn't happen because of

374
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:49,000
Speaker 4: the frame. You didn't have an accident because of the frame.

375
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:51,359
Speaker 4: You're not in the hospital because of the frame. You

376
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,400
Speaker 4: didn't get laid off because of the frame. Your children

377
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 4: are still healthy in home. A few years ago, I

378
00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:02,119
Speaker 4: was in San Antonio at Brooke Army Medical Hospital praying

379
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 4: for some of the soldiers. This hospital specializes in treating

380
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 4: people that have burns. I left one room and a

381
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 4: couple stopped me and asked me to go in and

382
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 4: pray for their son. He'd been badly burned. They told

383
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,199
Speaker 4: how he was a soldier in a rock was the

384
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 4: middle of the night, was on the army base refueling

385
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 4: these large tanks of gas. It was all alone, about

386
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:28,159
Speaker 4: a mile from the main area. Something caused the tanks

387
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:32,919
Speaker 4: to ignite. When he woke up, he was twenty yards away,

388
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 4: flat on his back, on fire, not able to move.

389
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 4: He's wearing all of this ammunition that could explode at

390
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 4: any moment. Out of nowhere. These two Iraqi men civilians

391
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 4: showed up and started rolling him in the dirt to

392
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 4: stop the fire. Without those two men, he certainly would

393
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:57,880
Speaker 4: have burned to death. What's interesting is those men were

394
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 4: not allowed on the base. They were in a secure

395
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 4: area three o'clock in the morning. The parents said, those

396
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,359
Speaker 4: men had to have been put there by God to

397
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:11,640
Speaker 4: save our son. What was that the frame? It wasn't

398
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 4: his time to go. The enemy doesn't determine your destiny.

399
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:20,119
Speaker 4: God does. God is bigger than an explosion, bigger than

400
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:24,120
Speaker 4: an accident, bigger than a car running a red life.

401
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 4: God has you in a frame. When I was ten

402
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 4: years old, we went to Hawaii with my parents. We

403
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 4: arrived about three o'clock in the afternoon, and we were

404
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 4: so excited. After we checked into the hotel, all five

405
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 4: of us children ran down to the beach to go swimming.

406
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 4: My brother and sister, Paul and Lisa, were in their

407
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,800
Speaker 4: late teens, and they were supposed to watch over us.

408
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,879
Speaker 4: We rented some floats, but in the excitement of playing

409
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:54,199
Speaker 4: in the big waves and having so much fun, we

410
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 4: looked up and couldn't find my little sister, April. She

411
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 4: was eight years old, zed and searched so frantically five minutes,

412
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,959
Speaker 4: ten minutes, twenty minutes, thirty minutes. I had never felt

413
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 4: such a sick feeling in all my life. We were

414
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:14,119
Speaker 4: just sure April had drowned. The waves were so big.

415
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 4: Forty five minutes everyone was looking. An hour still nothing hour,

416
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 4: and fifteen minutes later we see April way way down

417
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 4: the beach, walking toward us, carrying her float. We had

418
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,479
Speaker 4: never been so happy and so mad at her at

419
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:34,719
Speaker 4: the same time. What happened is she'd fallen asleep on

420
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 4: that float. It was six hours later here at home,

421
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 4: about eleven at night. She drifted nearly two miles down

422
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 4: the shore. She could have drifted out to sea. She

423
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,640
Speaker 4: could have woken up in deep water, not been able

424
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 4: to swim. In a thousand things could have happened, but

425
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 4: God had her in a frame. God had a boundary

426
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 4: set around her. Let me assure you death can't pins

427
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 4: your frame. God has to allow it. The number of

428
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 4: your days he will fulfill. That's why I always tell

429
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 4: people that have lost a loved one, especially if they

430
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,199
Speaker 4: went home at an early age. While we may not

431
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 4: understand it, know this. The enemy didn't take your loved one.

432
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:23,399
Speaker 4: He doesn't have that power. God called them home. God

433
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,400
Speaker 4: received them into his presence. The angels carried them into

434
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 4: the Heavenly Father's arms. When Jesus arose from the grave.

435
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 4: He said, you don't have to worry anymore. I've got

436
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:38,400
Speaker 4: the keys of death. He was saying, nobody determines your

437
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 4: time except me. Death can't penetrate your frame. An accident

438
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 4: can't penetrate your frame. Sickness can't penetrate your frame. God

439
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 4: has to give it permission. He controls the whole universe.

440
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,720
Speaker 4: When you understand this, you can say, with the apostle

441
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 4: paul O Death, where is your sting o grave? Where

442
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 4: is your I'm not afraid of you. You can't defeat me.

443
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,520
Speaker 4: I know there's a frame around my life. Not worried

444
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 4: about my health. I've been framed. I'm not afraid to

445
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 4: drive on the freeway. Thousand may fall at my side.

446
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,119
Speaker 4: That's okay. I've got a frame ten thousand at my

447
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 4: right hand. No problem. I've been framed. It's a hedge

448
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 4: of protection, a bloodline that the enemy cannot cross. We

449
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,720
Speaker 4: see this principle in Job's life. He was looking for

450
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 4: somebody to test. God said to Satan, have you seen

451
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 4: my servant Job. There's none like him in all the land.

452
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 4: Satan answered back something interesting. He said, yes, God, I've

453
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,359
Speaker 4: seen Job, but you know I can't touch him. You

454
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,919
Speaker 4: put a hedge around him. You've got a frame around

455
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,960
Speaker 4: his life. He went on to say, if you'll remove

456
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,440
Speaker 4: the frame and let me get to him, then he'll

457
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 4: curse you. But what I want you to see is

458
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,360
Speaker 4: the enemy can't just do whatever he wants. He has

459
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:03,080
Speaker 4: to ask God for permission. God has to allow him

460
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,880
Speaker 4: to do it. Job went through a time of testing.

461
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,679
Speaker 4: He fought the good fight, and in the end he

462
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 4: didn't curse God. He came out with double When you

463
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 4: go through tough times, you have a bad break, you're

464
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 4: facing a sickness, don't get discouraged. Remember the frame is

465
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 4: still up. You keep moving forward and you'll not only

466
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,120
Speaker 4: come out, but like Job, God will bring you out

467
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:30,199
Speaker 4: better off than you were before. My encouragement to us today,

468
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,440
Speaker 4: don't worry about your future. You've been framed. There are

469
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 4: boundaries around your life put in place by the most

470
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 4: powerful force in the universe. Not only can nothing get

471
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,880
Speaker 4: in without God's permission, you can't get out. You may

472
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 4: run like Jonah, but there'll be a fish waiting for you.

473
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 4: You may kick like Saul, but before long you'll be

474
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 4: the apostle Paul. You may be about to tell somebody

475
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 4: off like David, don't worry, Abigail's going to show up.

476
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 4: That's the frame now, all through the day, instead of worrying,

477
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 4: instead of being stressed out. Now under your breath, Lord,

478
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 4: thank you that my life has been framed. Thank you

479
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 4: that my children are framed. Lord, Thank you that my health,

480
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,919
Speaker 4: my finances, my dreams, my future is in your frame.

481
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 4: If you'll do that, you'll not only be happier, you'll

482
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:23,920
Speaker 4: not only have more peace. But God promises the number

483
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 4: of your days he will fulfill. You will see his protection,

484
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:32,440
Speaker 4: his mercy, his favor. And I believe and declare nothing

485
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 4: will keep you from your God given destiny in Jesus's name.

486
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 4: If you receive it, can you say amen. We never

487
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,960
Speaker 4: like to close our broadcast without giving you an opportunity

488
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 4: to make Jesus the lord of your life. Would you

489
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 4: pray with me? Just say, Lord, Jesus, I repent of

490
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 4: my sins. Come into my heart. I make you my

491
00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 4: Lord and savior. Friends, if you prayed that simple prayer,
