Speaker 1: Pure primetime in the basin today. One thing only that
Speaker 1: we're focused on with the teaching today, and that's priming
Speaker 1: the pump, cleaning out the pipes for the word that
Speaker 1: God wants to bring on Sunday. It's been an amazing
Speaker 1: flow in my life this week, and I thank God
Speaker 1: for it. Things that He has spoken to me and
Speaker 1: shown me and enabled me the experience, and I'm full
Speaker 1: of gratitude about it, and also the things that I
Speaker 1: believe He's, you know, getting ready to speak through me.
Speaker 1: There's so much that I want to share, and trying
Speaker 1: to get it all in would be ridiculous. But let
Speaker 1: me go to Joshua three sixteen, because I'm pretty sure
Speaker 1: that this week I'm going to work from the text
Speaker 1: that I shared weeks ago when I was kind of
Speaker 1: getting this teaching bit by bit, chapter by chapter, reading
Speaker 1: through the Bible. And I'll go visit that and study
Speaker 1: it out as the weekend progresses. But particularly verse sixteen.
Speaker 1: The water from upstream stopped flowing pot up in a
Speaker 1: heap a great distance away the town called Adam in
Speaker 1: the vicinity of Zarathan, where the water flowing down to
Speaker 1: the sea of the Araba, that is the dead Sea
Speaker 1: was completely cut off, so the people crossed over opposite
Speaker 1: Jericho and starting the teaching here for you and kind
Speaker 1: of continuing what I taught Sunday in the pulpit was
Speaker 1: this phrase, do the thing that you would do. Now.
Speaker 1: Taking that phrase at a surface value, it's kind of
Speaker 1: like an incomplete sentence, feels a little yoda. Do the
Speaker 1: thing that you would do. What tell me what to do?
Speaker 1: Do the thing that you would do. I saw the
Speaker 1: phrase in a double meaning. I saw the phrase as
Speaker 1: being a strategy to break out of lethargy. I saw
Speaker 1: the phrase as a focus in times where we feel conflicted.
Speaker 1: I saw the phrase as a challenge to come up higher.
Speaker 1: And I saw the phrase as a summons to faith.
Speaker 1: I saw all those things in that phrase. Do the
Speaker 1: thing that you would do. Now, Joshua is leading the
Speaker 1: people to cross the Jordan River. That's not something that
Speaker 1: they would do if they didn't believe God was with them.
Speaker 1: So it takes faith. And one of the things that
Speaker 1: I want to speak about on Sunday and today is
Speaker 1: the nature of faith. Faith has a very peculiar nature.
Speaker 1: In the Westminster Confession, where they met in Westminster Abbey
Speaker 1: during the Civil War in England in the sixteen hundreds,
Speaker 1: and they gathered the theologians to write out the doctrine
Speaker 1: of faith. They came away with a document that was
Speaker 1: referred back to by a lot of different denominations, especially
Speaker 1: in the Reform theological tradition, as a basis for what
Speaker 1: they believed. You know, we say faith these days. It
Speaker 1: can mean anything like it's going to turn out okay,
Speaker 1: I have faith. I don't really think that's faith. That's
Speaker 1: just optimism or maybe delusion. When we say faith it
Speaker 1: can mean anything, you know, like I have faith in you,
Speaker 1: and that means that I have confidence in you as
Speaker 1: a person. But faith in God is different. Now we're
Speaker 1: not going to get into some deep dark theological hole here,
Speaker 1: don't worry. But it says that by imputing the obedience
Speaker 1: and satisfaction of Christ to you, God saves you in
Speaker 1: the Westminster Confession, and it talks about our heart in
Speaker 1: being saved and our part in having a right relationship
Speaker 1: with God. It's not that our faith is so great,
Speaker 1: it's that God is so great and that Jesus is
Speaker 1: so faithful, and that the faith of Jesus is living
Speaker 1: in us. Look at this it says they receiving and
Speaker 1: resting in Him by faith and His righteousness, which faith
Speaker 1: they have, not of themselves. It is the gift of God.
Speaker 1: So I love that distinction that faith isn't something that
Speaker 1: I have to work up. Faith isn't something that I
Speaker 1: have to manufacture. Faith isn't something that I have to formulate.
Speaker 1: Yes I have to stay in faith, and yes I
Speaker 1: have to walk in faith, and yes I have to
Speaker 1: grow in my faith, and yes I have to nurture
Speaker 1: my faith. Because I thought last week faith is a focus.
Speaker 1: But the nature of faith is that it was given
Speaker 1: from someone else, that's someone being God. That my faith
Speaker 1: is in what already happened because of Jesus' death for me,
Speaker 1: his resurrection, and his presence in my life. All of
Speaker 1: that is something that has happened for me, is something
Speaker 1: that God is doing in me, and it results in
Speaker 1: what God is doing through me. That's the nature of faith.
Speaker 1: And the nature of faith in a physical sense is
Speaker 1: seen in Joshua three. Amazing the nature of faith because
Speaker 1: the waters were cut off, remember in Adam, twenty miles
Speaker 1: away from where they crossed. So the nature of faith
Speaker 1: is illustrated here by the Jordan River. Not a big river,
Speaker 1: not impressive river, not a mighty river, but a significant river,
Speaker 1: is very significant in scripture. So get this in your heart.
Speaker 1: As Joshua is leading the generation that will inherit the
Speaker 1: land to cross the Jordan River, Jesus is gonna be
Speaker 1: baptized in that Jordan River by John the Baptist in
Speaker 1: the future. But that's not yet. That's not yet. That's
Speaker 1: not yet. That's still to come. That's still to come.
Speaker 1: And as they're going across, the Bible says that the
Speaker 1: waters that were flowing upstream from upstream were cut off
Speaker 1: in a great heat. And that's the part that drew
Speaker 1: me to this text. And I have been holding myself back,
Speaker 1: especially when I first saw it, from preaching this for
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks now and saving it so I
Speaker 1: could move through the journey the way that I felt
Speaker 1: like God wanted me to. And so now I'm just
Speaker 1: days away from being able to preach it. God is
Speaker 1: up to something upstream. God's up to something up say that, Lord,
Speaker 1: God's up to something upstream. Uh. I can barely contain
Speaker 1: myself as I think about it. How that God did
Speaker 1: something in Jesus that now flows to me that God
Speaker 1: put his wrath anger on Jesus and satisfied the justice
Speaker 1: of his holiness when Jesus died for me. And his
Speaker 1: faith is now the basis by which I relate to God.
Speaker 1: Not my faith. My faith is kind of fickle. I
Speaker 1: wish it was, I wish it weren't. I wish it weren't.
Speaker 1: But it's not always firm. But Jesus' faith is firm.
Speaker 1: So I lean on him, I build on him, I
Speaker 1: rest on him. I come to God through him. And
Speaker 1: now see how this works. So upstream to downstream it
Speaker 1: flows the nature of faith. It flows from Jesus to
Speaker 1: me through me. Doesn't come from me. It's the gift.
Speaker 1: It flows from him to me. The grace of God,
Speaker 1: the gifts of God flow to me from Jesus and
Speaker 1: then flow into my life. And then I walk in
Speaker 1: it and I move in it. And that is the
Speaker 1: nature of faith. In Jesus Christ, biblical faith, and in
Speaker 1: the Book of Joshua. Of course we have a picture
Speaker 1: of how Jesus is our leader. But Joshua, being an
Speaker 1: imperfect leader, has to really believe what God spoke to
Speaker 1: him that nobody else could see that I'm going to
Speaker 1: bring you across as Jordan. And yeah, the people knew
Speaker 1: that God was bringing them into the price, I mused, land,
Speaker 1: but Joshua had to believe that and lead the people
Speaker 1: watch this to cross over something that God had not
Speaker 1: changed yet. And here they are standing at the Jordan River.
Speaker 1: And I probably even break this down because if I
Speaker 1: go too fast, it will be confusing and it won't
Speaker 1: have the full meaning. And I really want to bring
Speaker 1: it across. How it says that the people had to
Speaker 1: follow the arc of the Covenant and go across the Jordan,
Speaker 1: and the water from upstream stopped flowing, piling up in
Speaker 1: a heap a great distance away at a town called Adam.
Speaker 1: I already mentioned it, but that town is twenty miles away.
Speaker 1: I'll probably saved that little detail. Maybe I'll just mention it,
Speaker 1: but and then come back to it. Because is significant
Speaker 1: is that what God was doing twenty miles away was
Speaker 1: not visible to these realized. In other words, they couldn't see, Hey,
Speaker 1: the water is stopping in a dump, so we can
Speaker 1: cross now. Because the water's stopping up here, They saw
Speaker 1: no visible proof that God was going to do it
Speaker 1: until the moment their feet touched the water. Now the
Speaker 1: moment think about the timing of God. The moment that
Speaker 1: their feet touched the water, the waters stopped flowing where
Speaker 1: they were. But but in order for that water to
Speaker 1: stop flowing where they were, it had to be cut
Speaker 1: off upstream hours before they got there, and God was
Speaker 1: up to something in a place they couldn't see. You know,
Speaker 1: we like to think that God is going to give
Speaker 1: us a good feeling and then we can obey him.
Speaker 1: We like to think that God is going to show
Speaker 1: us on paper how everything's going to work out, and
Speaker 1: then we can trust him. We like to think sometimes
Speaker 1: that God is going to take a certain desire away
Speaker 1: from us and then we will walk in freedom. But
Speaker 1: the nature of faith is the ability to believe that
Speaker 1: God is up to something upstream where I can't see.
Speaker 1: And the key for me to experience that is to
Speaker 1: walk toward the thing that stands between me and what
Speaker 1: God has called me to. Now, this could be anything.
Speaker 1: This could be walking toward freedom, recovery, service, purpose, discipline.
Speaker 1: We could name a lot of things that God is
Speaker 1: calling you to, a lot of things that God is
Speaker 1: calling you to do today. Last week I said, what
Speaker 1: do I know God spoke that I can obey today.
Speaker 1: What has God said? What did God say that I
Speaker 1: can obey today? And do the thing? One thing that
Speaker 1: you would do if you knew God was with you,
Speaker 1: in it, with me, working through me, fighting for me.
Speaker 1: If you believe that, what thing would you do? Now?
Speaker 1: The double play on the phrase do the thing that
Speaker 1: you would do is when I talk about that you
Speaker 1: do the thing that you would do, I'm saying that
Speaker 1: there are at least two yous in scripture. There's the
Speaker 1: old you, which is programmed by the patterns of sin.
Speaker 1: There is the new you, which is created to be
Speaker 1: like God in true righteousness and holiness. Remember, that's the
Speaker 1: true you. That's the one that flows from upstream. That's
Speaker 1: the youth that was spoken by the mouth of God
Speaker 1: before you were formed. He knew you that you. So
Speaker 1: when you're caught between the two, like, this is what
Speaker 1: my selfish desires want, This is what the part of
Speaker 1: me that knows God and hear's from God wants do
Speaker 1: the thing that you which one the new one, the
Speaker 1: one that God is speaking to, the one that God
Speaker 1: is flowing through, the one that's in harmony with him,
Speaker 1: the one that is kept the one that is sustained,
Speaker 1: the one that is full of the faith of Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1: Do the thing that you would do, and you got
Speaker 1: to sometimes do it when you don't feel it, when
Speaker 1: you don't see it, when you don't understand it, when
Speaker 1: you can't explain it, but you gotta do it. You
Speaker 1: got to walk toward the Jordan believing that God's presence,
Speaker 1: like the Ark of the Covenant, was with them in
Speaker 1: the middle of the Jordan. God's presence is with you,
Speaker 1: guiding you. But I'm not certain how it's going to
Speaker 1: turn out. We'll do that thing that you would do
Speaker 1: if you were certain that God was with you. Are
Speaker 1: you saying I could just start anything and assume that
Speaker 1: God is with me. No, I'm not saying that at all.
Speaker 1: I'm saying you have to be guided by His presence
Speaker 1: and you have to do the thing that you would
Speaker 1: do that you would do in spite of the fact
Speaker 1: that you can't see the waters cut off twenty miles away.
Speaker 1: When Jesus baptized or was baptized by John the Baptist
Speaker 1: in the Jordan, John never could have imagined, never could
Speaker 1: have seen, never could have dreamed that he would end
Speaker 1: up in prison. John would John ended up in prison. Jesus,
Speaker 1: of course, gave his life for our sin. But John
Speaker 1: was in prison hearing about the great things that Jesus
Speaker 1: had done, and he sends the messengers to ask Jesus,
Speaker 1: is it true that you're the one should we expect another?
Speaker 1: Because he heard about all the great things Jesus was doing,
Speaker 1: but he himself was in prison. And really the kingdom
Speaker 1: that Jesus was preaching was a little bit different than
Speaker 1: the one that John had expected, because, hey, the healing
Speaker 1: blind eyes is great. But He's like, man, you know,
Speaker 1: you got to separate the wheat from the chaff. I'm
Speaker 1: in here because of a wicked king, and you know,
Speaker 1: the judgment of God has got to come. And Jesus said,
Speaker 1: go back and tell John what you see the blind here,
Speaker 1: or the blind here, the blind seed, the death here.
Speaker 1: The Kingdom of God is come, and blessed us he
Speaker 1: who doesn't fall away on account of me. He was
Speaker 1: telling John, you got to believe in what I'm doing upstream.
Speaker 1: You got to believe. In business, the term upstream means
Speaker 1: something different than what it means in nature. In business,
Speaker 1: if you talk about marketing upstream refers to the activities
Speaker 1: and strategies associated with creating and developing a product, while
Speaker 1: downstream refers to activities and strategies associated with promoting and
Speaker 1: selling a product. You see the difference the upstream stuff
Speaker 1: in marketing. I mean, you want to market a shoe, well,
Speaker 1: the activities and strategies associated with creating and developing it
Speaker 1: that's upstream. Downstream is promoting and selling. I think we
Speaker 1: live in a culture where we're all doing downstream things
Speaker 1: to try to market and protect and promote ourselves, rather
Speaker 1: than focusing on the upstream stuff, which is being like God,
Speaker 1: developing character so God can work on us. We're so
Speaker 1: busy trying to am I is he trying to market
Speaker 1: myself that I'm not spending time with my maker. That's
Speaker 1: a downstream distraction, you see, that's a downstream distraction. But
Speaker 1: I got an upstream god. I got a God who
Speaker 1: sent his son Jesus, who sent his son Jesus not
Speaker 1: from twenty miles away, but he sent his son Jesus
Speaker 1: from eternity, and he spended the distance between his holiness
Speaker 1: and my sin. I got a God who is an
Speaker 1: upstream god. And Jesus was born in a town called Bethlehem,
Speaker 1: and raised in a town called Nazareth. But he didn't
Speaker 1: stay in Nazareth. He didn't stay in Nazareth because he
Speaker 1: had to go to Galilee so he could begin to
Speaker 1: preach and teach. Now, listen what it said in Matthew
Speaker 1: chapter four, verse twelve. When Jesus heard that John had
Speaker 1: been put in prison, he withdrew to Galilee, leaving Nazareth.
Speaker 1: He went and lived in Capernaum, which was by the lake,
Speaker 1: in the area of Zebulen and Naftali. To fulfill what
Speaker 1: was said through the Prophet Isaiah, land of Zebulen and
Speaker 1: land of Naptali, the way of the sea beyond the
Speaker 1: Jordan Galilee of the Gentiles. The people living in darkness
Speaker 1: have seen a great light. On those living in the
Speaker 1: land of the shadow of death, a light has dawned,
Speaker 1: and from that time on Jesus began to preach repent,
Speaker 1: for the Kingdom of Heaven has come near. God is
Speaker 1: up to something upstream. He left Nazareth verse thirteen, lived
Speaker 1: in Capernaum, which was in the area of Zebulun by
Speaker 1: the lake, to fulfill what was spoke by the prophet.
Speaker 1: Think about this, Think about this you may not know this.
Speaker 1: I didn't know this. I had to look it up.
Speaker 1: That Nazareth is about twenty miles away from Capernaum. Copernaum
Speaker 1: is where Jesus did most of his ministry. It was
Speaker 1: his base. You know. He healed a lot of people
Speaker 1: in Capernaum. By the Sea of Galilee, he opened blind eyes.
Speaker 1: I wonder did the blind people whose eyes he opened
Speaker 1: in Galilee have any clue that twenty miles away, ten
Speaker 1: years earlier, God was up to something upstream. While Jesus
Speaker 1: was sawing logs into bedside tables for lamps alongside his father,
Speaker 1: the carpenter, God was up to something upstream twenty miles away,
Speaker 1: getting Jesus ready for Galilee, getting him ready for Galilee,
Speaker 1: getting him ready for miracles, getting him ready for signs
Speaker 1: and wonders, getting him ready. God is getting you ready
Speaker 1: twenty miles away. Do you have the faith to trust
Speaker 1: him that he's up to something twenty miles away? I
Speaker 1: wrote a song with the guy this week whoa so
Speaker 1: excited about the song, and his name is Brandon Lake.
Speaker 1: Y'all know Brandon, y'all know Brandon, y'all love Brandon. He
Speaker 1: told me a story that I never heard before, because
Speaker 1: he grew up near Charleston, South Carolina, and went to
Speaker 1: a church called Seacoast. Oh my god, I'm just getting
Speaker 1: this revelation, he said, I never told you this before, Pastor.
Speaker 1: We just wrote a song. We written a lot of
Speaker 1: songs together, me and Chris and Brandon and also with
Speaker 1: other people, but we wrote a song this week. I
Speaker 1: can't wait for y'all to hear it. Oh man. We
Speaker 1: wrote three songs this week. I can't wait for y'all
Speaker 1: to hear all of them. But it's amazing because he
Speaker 1: said to me, I never told you this story before.
Speaker 1: But when I was a teenager, I sent an email
Speaker 1: to Elevation saying I would love to come learn, and
Speaker 1: somebody that was responding to the email said, ah, now
Speaker 1: we don't really do that right now. You could come
Speaker 1: move here or whatever. I thought it was so funny,
Speaker 1: and it's so funny how somebody else told him, no,
Speaker 1: you can't do that. And here we are today, working together,
Speaker 1: and God is using you in a great way, and
Speaker 1: we've written some really cool songs together, like Graves into
Speaker 1: Gardens and Rattle and talking to Jesus and lie in
Speaker 1: and the Water is wild and might get Loud and
Speaker 1: million little miracles and oh my God, we've had some
Speaker 1: amazing times together, make away and oh man, all these songs,
Speaker 1: some news, some old we're writing songs together. I never
Speaker 1: knew when I was growing up in Monk's Corner, South Carolina,
Speaker 1: that thirty miles away, it's almost twenty there was a
Speaker 1: boy named Brandon and we would get together and write
Speaker 1: music together. You know, Chris, I had no idea that
Speaker 1: you were in Hampton, South Carolina. God was getting us
Speaker 1: ready to write songs like Oh, come to the altar
Speaker 1: and do it again. God was getting us ready to
Speaker 1: go to arenas all over the world. God is up
Speaker 1: to something upstream. I had never met Brandon. I didn't
Speaker 1: know Chris until I was a teenager. I had no
Speaker 1: idea that God was up to something. And you don't either.
Speaker 1: You don't know what God is up to upstream. That's
Speaker 1: why you can't die downstream. That's why you got to
Speaker 1: cross that, Jordan.
Speaker 2: That's why you got to do the thing that you
Speaker 2: would do if you believed that victory, healing, breakthrough, second
Speaker 2: chances and new beginnings were on the other side.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, God is up to something upstream. Let
Speaker 1: me go a little deeper with this. When Jesus heard
Speaker 1: that John was in prison. That is the significant event
Speaker 1: that I mentioned where John was doubting downstream in the
Speaker 1: prison what he knew upstream when he baptized Jesus into Jordan.
Speaker 1: We're all gonna come to these moments. We're gonna have
Speaker 1: downstream doubts. I can't see God doing it. I can't
Speaker 1: feel God doing it. I don't even know if He's
Speaker 1: going to do it. There's some thoughts going through my
Speaker 1: mind making me think that maybe I'm crazy for trusting God. Ah,
Speaker 1: but God is up to something twenty miles away. It
Speaker 1: might not happen in the next twenty minutes, it might
Speaker 1: not happen in the next twenty days. I'm not one
Speaker 1: of these weird preachers who thinks I can tell everybody
Speaker 1: the timeframe. That is God's business. But if you can
Speaker 1: obey him and do the thing that you would do,
Speaker 1: if you believe that He was with you, You're gonna
Speaker 1: see it. You're gonna see it. When did they see it?
Speaker 1: When their feet touched the water, when they did the thing,
Speaker 1: Nike said, just do it, just do it. When they
Speaker 1: did the thing. When they did the thing, When they
Speaker 1: did the thing, when they did the thing, Look at
Speaker 1: verse fifteen. As soon as the priest who carried the
Speaker 1: art reached the jordan in their feet touched the water's edge.
Speaker 1: When their feet touched the water's edge, that is when
Speaker 1: they saw what God had already done upstream. I believe
Speaker 1: that there are some things that have you distracted today. Downstream?
Speaker 1: How are you going to get across this? Do the
Speaker 1: thing that you would do if you knew God was
Speaker 1: with you. Do the thing, Do it like you would
Speaker 1: do it. Walk in the room, you know. I was
Speaker 1: telling Graham last night. He said that when he's in
Speaker 1: a crowd and it's awkward, like a event, and he
Speaker 1: doesn't know how to stand or anything, he said, he
Speaker 1: starts jumping up and down like a player, excuse me,
Speaker 1: like a like a character on Madden. Some people use
Speaker 1: the term n PC. I don't like that term the
Speaker 1: way kids use it. A non playable character. I don't
Speaker 1: like that term because I think sometimes I hear it
Speaker 1: used to say that some people are like in PCs
Speaker 1: and like I'm the main character in life. No Jesus
Speaker 1: in the main Jesus is the main character God is
Speaker 1: the main character. The Holy Spirit is the main character.
Speaker 1: And Graham said, sometimes I just start doing like this,
Speaker 1: boom boom boom, jumping up and down. And I think
Speaker 1: that's good to do in church too, when you don't
Speaker 1: know how to stand, when you don't know what to do,
Speaker 1: start doing the thing that you would do if you
Speaker 1: were excited about God's promise. You're not gonna always feel it.
Speaker 1: Do the thing, Move toward the thing that you know
Speaker 1: God spoke that you can obey today, and we'll apply this.
Speaker 1: I'm going to keep this stirring. I got it. I
Speaker 1: think you can feel it. I got it fresh now.
Speaker 1: So God is good. I'm excited to preach it that
Speaker 1: he's up to something upstream. And as I work this
Speaker 1: sermon together, I'm going to be praying, or as God
Speaker 1: works this sermon together in me, to preach it through
Speaker 1: me for others, I'm going to be believing that whatever
Speaker 1: you're walking into today, this season of your life, that
Speaker 1: you would have the accompanying faith to know that far away,
Speaker 1: far far away, long ago, no, not long ago, right now,
Speaker 1: in a place far far away, God is piling up
Speaker 1: the waters. He had to do that hours before they got.
Speaker 1: God does things sometimes years before we get there. We
Speaker 1: don't see it until we step into it. I'll stop now.
Speaker 1: I don't want to stop, but I feel like I should,
Speaker 1: because hey, I go all day. Thank you Jesus for
Speaker 1: the things you're doing upstream. Thank you Jesus for dying
Speaker 1: for me. Thank you that my righteousness comes from upstream.
Speaker 1: It comes from you. It flows from you only you.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Jesus. Say thank you Jesus for blessing me,
Speaker 1: for letting your mercy flow, your grace flow. It flows
Speaker 1: from you enough for me. It flows from you enough
Speaker 1: for me. You're not against me, You're not counting my
Speaker 1: sins against me. You give me the righteousness of Christ.
Speaker 1: I believe that is the gift of God. Even my
Speaker 1: faith is a gift. And now by faith I step
Speaker 1: toward this water, just like Jesus told y'all the Baptist.
Speaker 1: Blessed is he who does not fall away on account
Speaker 1: of me. Blessed is he who believes, in the downstream
Speaker 1: of doubt and disappointment what I spoke in the upstream
Speaker 1: of revelation. Believe that thing, do that thing, continue to
Speaker 1: do it. And when their feet touched the water, Ah
Speaker 1: they saw the result. You don't see the result till
Speaker 1: you take the step. You don't see the result until
Speaker 1: you make the commitment do the thing that you would do.
Speaker 1: I know there are two us talking right now. One
Speaker 1: you that is talking is the one that's saying I can't,
Speaker 1: and the other one that is talking to you says
Speaker 1: that God will do the thing that you would do.
Speaker 1: Bless you. I can't wait to share this with you,
Speaker 1: flush it out and see how it goes. But I
Speaker 1: know it's good to me cause I could say God
Speaker 1: is up to something up stream in my life right now.
Speaker 1: Then I hope you feel the same way too. If
Speaker 1: you don't feel the same way, I pray you will
Speaker 1: believe it by faith and go forward in Jesus name. Amen.
