Speaker 1: Hey, this is Stephen Ferdik.
Speaker 2: I'm the pastor of Elevation Church and this is our podcast.
Speaker 1: I wanted to thank you for joining us today. Hope
Speaker 1: this inspires you. Hope it builds your faith.
Speaker 2: Hope it gives your perspective to see God is moving
Speaker 2: in your life.
Speaker 1: Enjoy the message.
Speaker 3: There have been so many times where God gave our
Speaker 3: church a song and two years later, five years later,
Speaker 3: ten years later, somebody will come up to me and say,
Speaker 3: that song got me through my cancer treatments, that song.
Speaker 1: Got me through my prison sentence.
Speaker 3: When they send us videos of those prisoners singing trust
Speaker 3: in God, and even people who aren't in a physical prison,
Speaker 3: people will say that thing got me through some sleepless nights.
Speaker 3: I listened to the Blessing when I was dealing with
Speaker 3: incredible anxiety and fear.
Speaker 1: And all of these songs.
Speaker 3: And this Thursday, you have a opera tunity to be
Speaker 3: a part of that. So I'm not telling you that
Speaker 3: because we need people to attend.
Speaker 1: It's always pretty full. I just didn't want you to
Speaker 1: miss it and not know what was happening. Now.
Speaker 3: I take my job seriously, and my job is to
Speaker 3: put God's words in people's heart.
Speaker 1: That's my job. That's my job.
Speaker 3: Whenever I'm not preaching to you or studying to preach
Speaker 3: to you, I'm usually humming a melody into a song,
Speaker 3: changing a lyric for the fifteenth time, so the team
Speaker 3: has to learn it at nine to thirteen before we
Speaker 3: try it the first time.
Speaker 1: And it's all the same thing.
Speaker 3: I want you to have watched this a new loop
Speaker 3: in your life. That's what I'm preaching about today. That's
Speaker 3: what I preached about last week. Our series shown the graphic.
Speaker 3: It's called same lies, new loops and meditating on word
Speaker 3: of God is hard when we have so much noise
Speaker 3: in our world.
Speaker 1: Isn't it.
Speaker 3: Y'all got sit there and act like it's not noisy
Speaker 3: in your in your mind. So a noisy mind needs
Speaker 3: a new loot, something else to latch onto, so you
Speaker 3: don't go absolutely crazy with temptation and with anger or
Speaker 3: with shame. And one thing that I love to do
Speaker 3: is when we can get a meditation from God's word
Speaker 3: and then God gives us a melody to go with it,
Speaker 3: it helps us to remember it in the hard times. Today,
Speaker 3: I want to share with you from a psalm Psalm
Speaker 3: one hundred and fourteen. We read it in our family
Speaker 3: Bible club. We don't stand the whole time in our church.
Speaker 3: In case you're wondering, did you wear the wrong shoes?
Speaker 3: I'll let you use that seat to its fullest in
Speaker 3: just a moment. But please stand for the reading of
Speaker 3: God's word. And if you're watching this somewhere else, you
Speaker 3: may want to stand too. There's something about respecting and
Speaker 3: reverencing God's words because his words are eternal.
Speaker 1: Everything else. Everybody says it, and.
Speaker 3: It goes God's were last forever Psalm fourteen.
Speaker 1: I pick up in verse five. You're gonna like this one.
Speaker 4: Wow, Why was it s that you fled? Why Shordan
Speaker 4: did you turn back? Why mountains did you leap like rams?
Speaker 4: You hills like lambs? To us, that's kind of strange imagery.
Speaker 3: First of all, he's talking about the things that God
Speaker 3: did in Israel's past. This is a passover psalm that
Speaker 3: they would use to remember how God brought them out
Speaker 3: of Egypt. How many of you remember when God brought
Speaker 3: you out of something in your own life? So now
Speaker 3: he's taunting their trauma. Why is it c that you fled?
Speaker 3: Why Jordan did you turn back. I gotta say something
Speaker 3: about that verse. Did you know you have a god
Speaker 3: who when he speaks to the sea, it sprints to
Speaker 3: obey him. If God says to the red sea right left,
Speaker 3: the sea doesn't dawdle, The sea doesn't walk, The seed
Speaker 3: doesn't crawl, the sea doesn't think about it. When God says,
Speaker 3: see split, the sea sprints to obey his word.
Speaker 1: That's how powerful he is. I gotta go faster. That's
Speaker 1: only one verse.
Speaker 3: Verse six, Why mountains did you leap like rams? Did
Speaker 3: you know you have a god who when he speaks,
Speaker 3: mountains leap. I know we're used to talking about mountains moving,
Speaker 3: but this is a different picture. He said, Not only
Speaker 3: do they move, the mountains leap when he speaks. The
Speaker 3: obstacle moves when he speaks. It can happen quickly and
Speaker 3: suddenly and irreversibly and dramatically when he speaks mountains leap
Speaker 3: when he speaks sea split. And I'm trying to read
Speaker 3: my but I'm excited about He's been doing it for
Speaker 3: a long time. Verse seven, tremble earth at the presence
Speaker 3: of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
Speaker 3: who turned the rock into a pool the hard rock
Speaker 3: into springs of water. One verse from Matthew chapter four,
Speaker 3: verse four. Matthew Chapter four, verse four, the Bible says,
Speaker 3: Jesus answered, it is written man shall not live on
Speaker 3: bread alone, but on every word that comes from the
Speaker 3: mouth of God.
Speaker 1: Say amen to that.
Speaker 3: Somebody, Yeah, I want to take those two words from
Speaker 3: verse four. Put it up again, please, Jesus answered. The
Speaker 3: title I'd like to preach to you from today.
Speaker 1: Is two words. He answered. He answered, yeah, He answered,
Speaker 1: turn around and hug five people on your way to
Speaker 1: your seat.
Speaker 3: Say I'm so glad, he answered, I'm glad he picked
Speaker 3: up my call, my collect call.
Speaker 1: I'm glad he paid the price for me. He answered.
Speaker 3: I'm grateful because he answered, I'm standing here today because
Speaker 3: he answered, He answered, I asked him for another day,
Speaker 3: and he gave it. He answered, I.
Speaker 1: Asked him to help me keep my mind together.
Speaker 3: Somebody put it in the chat, say, he answered, Say
Speaker 3: it out loud at every location. He answered, aren't you
Speaker 3: glad you have a God who answers prayers.
Speaker 1: Come on, it's not a rhetorical question. Aren't you glad
Speaker 1: you have a god? Put it in the chat?
Speaker 3: Say I'm glad, he answers yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 3: Sometimes other people don't, he answered, Sometimes other people turned away,
Speaker 3: he answered, now king of rhetorical questions, I love the
Speaker 3: way psalmone fourteen puts the truth across. It was fresh
Speaker 3: to me. And again, we have a family Bible Club,
Speaker 3: and we landed in this just at the time that
Speaker 3: my message was coming together. Thank you Lord for speaking
Speaker 3: to me in my personal life so I could share
Speaker 3: it with others. I want to give it to you
Speaker 3: like he gave it to me. It's a rhetorical question.
Speaker 3: Why was it sea that you fled? Why Jordan did
Speaker 3: you turn back? Why mountains did you leap like rams?
Speaker 3: You hills like lambs. We know the answer because God
Speaker 3: told it too, But in framing it rhetorically, it invites
Speaker 3: us into the story, and it invites this truth into
Speaker 3: our story as well, the story of your wives and
Speaker 3: what ifs, the loops and lies that the enemy has
Speaker 3: you in imagining worst case scenarios and replaying past hers
Speaker 3: to the point that you cannot see God, who is
Speaker 3: your present help? Into this the mis speaks and I
Speaker 3: wonder what melody was attached to this meditation? Why was
Speaker 3: it c that you fled. It's a rhetorical question. Now
Speaker 3: you know the phrase rhetorical question, right. A rhetorical question
Speaker 3: is a question that you ask but you really don't
Speaker 3: expect an answer, right, Like somebody says, what were you thinking?
Speaker 3: All they're saying is you're stupid, but they're framing it
Speaker 3: with a question, but don't answer. It's rhetorical. It means
Speaker 3: you weren't right. Or there's other ones too.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm just thinking of a few before
Speaker 1: I came out. Oh, here's one.
Speaker 3: One time Elijah did something that Holly kept telling him
Speaker 3: not to do, and she kept.
Speaker 1: Telling them, kept telling them, and she finally goes, how.
Speaker 3: Many times do I have to tell you? And he
Speaker 3: goes three times? There was a rhetorical question. It wasn't
Speaker 3: a literal question. It was a rhetorical question. And by
Speaker 3: framing this question and as rhetorical about the Red Sea
Speaker 3: or the mountains that God moved for his people, God
Speaker 3: is not only asking a rhetorical question, but he's asking
Speaker 3: a historical question. What did God do for you in
Speaker 3: your past that when you remember it, it reveals to
Speaker 3: you how powerful He is in your Now, go ahead
Speaker 3: and get ready to write down some notes.
Speaker 1: I'm going to give you three points today. Somebody say,
Speaker 1: he answered.
Speaker 3: Put the title of my sermon right there in the comments.
Speaker 1: Please just put he answered in all caps.
Speaker 3: And of course when he answers in Psalm one fourteen,
Speaker 3: he says, tremble earth at the presence of the Lord.
Speaker 3: Now that's how it happened, the presence of the Lord.
Speaker 3: Let me put all this together really quickly. Why did
Speaker 3: the sea sprint when God's people were passing through? That's
Speaker 3: a historical event, a rhetorical question. Why did the mountain
Speaker 3: move when God told it to? What about those impossible
Speaker 3: things that he did in your life?
Speaker 1: It's rhetorical, it's also historical.
Speaker 3: And if you look back over your life, you'll see
Speaker 3: that his presence was everywhere. You didn't always recognize it
Speaker 3: because you were hurting too bad, but his presence was
Speaker 3: there with you. You couldn't quite see it because there
Speaker 3: were enemies surrounding your table, but he prepared a table
Speaker 3: for you in the presence of your enemies.
Speaker 1: Who was it that told the sea to split, the
Speaker 1: mountain to move? It was God.
Speaker 3: It's a rhetorical question. It's a historical question. I like
Speaker 3: them to bring my teaching screen out please. Everybody clapped
Speaker 3: to give me the courage to draw a.
Speaker 1: Little bit today. See how supportive the ladies are When.
Speaker 3: I I think I'm going to reflect myself next year.
Speaker 3: It looked so fun, looks so fun.
Speaker 1: Okay, I heard you, I heard you. I am not
Speaker 1: going to answer that. You hear what they said.
Speaker 3: No, we want Holly, we want Holly.
Speaker 1: I know me too.
Speaker 3: Just to get you back in the mindset of this message,
Speaker 3: I drew a loop and I talked about how the
Speaker 3: enemy is always speaking and so is God.
Speaker 1: Same lies. Let's abbreviate new loops.
Speaker 3: This is the process of transformation. Does that kind of
Speaker 3: look like a brain?
Speaker 1: A little bit like? Not really?
Speaker 3: The renewal of your mind to stop repeating the same
Speaker 3: stuff over and over again that leads you to defeat
Speaker 3: and start repeating what leads you to victory. Victory and
Speaker 3: defeat are both found in the repeat.
Speaker 1: That doesn't only rhyme. That's really good. The victories you.
Speaker 3: Experience in your life or even in your physical body,
Speaker 3: the victories of losing weight, the victories of building strength.
Speaker 3: It's found in the repeat. So are the defeats you
Speaker 3: lift weight weight one time every four months. And you
Speaker 3: only lift one weight four times every one time every
Speaker 3: four months, we will see that result. If you lift
Speaker 3: it every day forty times, we will see that if
Speaker 3: you get the right thing on repeat. Oh God, I
Speaker 3: feel like somebody's about to get set free. If you
Speaker 3: get the right thing on repeat in your life, You're
Speaker 3: gonna get stronger. You're gonna say, like the prophet Isaiah
Speaker 3: said day that weight on the lore will renew their strength.
Speaker 1: I'm renewing my strength by what I do every day.
Speaker 3: I am renewing my strength every time I come to church.
Speaker 3: Give yourself a hand for coming to your class today,
Speaker 3: for tuning into this message today, because this, for me
Speaker 3: is not just a church service, This is a new loop.
Speaker 3: This for me is retraining my brain to move away
Speaker 3: from the lies and believe what God says about me.
Speaker 1: Not only is.
Speaker 3: Your victory found in your repeats, though, but your defeat
Speaker 3: is often found in your repeats. What you say to
Speaker 3: yourself over and over again that disagrees with what God
Speaker 3: already spoke about you before you were ever born will
Speaker 3: leave you feeling weak. You're not really weak, you just
Speaker 3: are repeating the wrong thing. Repeat the right thing you'll
Speaker 3: be stronger. This is not to say that our praise
Speaker 3: and pursuit of God will preclude all of our proclivities
Speaker 3: towards sin.
Speaker 1: In other words, I'm not saying it's going to be easy.
Speaker 1: And think about this way.
Speaker 3: I read to you what seemed to be a random
Speaker 3: verse from Matthew chapter four, where Jesus answered and said,
Speaker 3: it is written man will not live on bread alone,
Speaker 3: but every word that comes from the mouth of God.
Speaker 1: You know where Jesus was when he said that the
Speaker 1: wilderness the wilderness.
Speaker 3: I want to show this to you. You're not going
Speaker 3: to believe. This is in the Bible in Matthew four,
Speaker 3: verse one. Turn there if you'd like, or just will
Speaker 3: put it up on the screen for you. Matthew chapter four,
Speaker 3: verse one. The Bible says this, Then Jesus was led
Speaker 3: by the spirit into the wilderness. That's the part I
Speaker 3: thought would shock you, because I thought the spirit would.
Speaker 1: Lead Jesus to an easy place. But it gets worse.
Speaker 3: Then Jesus was led by the spirit into the wilderness
Speaker 3: to be tempted by the devil. I have got all
Speaker 3: kinds of questions about that verse, and none of them
Speaker 3: are rhetorical.
Speaker 1: I really need to know. Why would the spirit lead
Speaker 1: him into the wilderness.
Speaker 3: And I thought about that over and over again, and
Speaker 3: I realized the more I read it that it was
Speaker 3: a repeat, because I remembered how Israel in the Old
Speaker 3: Testament went through the wilderness too, not for forty days
Speaker 3: and forty nights, but for forty years. And here's what
Speaker 3: the enemy did to them when they were coming out
Speaker 3: of Egypt. God was bringing them out of Egypt to
Speaker 3: the Promised Land.
Speaker 1: And on their way out of Egypt into the.
Speaker 3: Promised Land, the devil told them a lie that they
Speaker 3: could not.
Speaker 1: Do what God had called them to do.
Speaker 3: The devil has been telling you that same lie, has
Speaker 3: any that you are not enough, and that you are
Speaker 3: you are not enough, you are not loved. I said
Speaker 3: this last week. But victory is found in the repeat.
Speaker 1: And when you.
Speaker 3: Begin to understand that's all the devil ever says to you,
Speaker 3: You're not enough. It's not enough, they're not enough, You're
Speaker 3: not loved. It's not enough, you're not loved. Unless you
Speaker 3: do this, you can't be that. They won't love you
Speaker 3: if they only love you because you're not enough, You're
Speaker 3: not loved, You're not even enough for God to love
Speaker 3: you unless you act a certain way.
Speaker 1: You're not enough for God to.
Speaker 3: Hear you unless you reach a certain level of spirituality
Speaker 3: and scale yourself up to the highest heide of the
Speaker 3: best Christian. It's not enough. You tried, but it's not enough,
Speaker 3: and you're not loved. Now, those two lies play on
Speaker 3: the loop in our mind. But in the case of
Speaker 3: Israel going through the wilderness, I want to tell you something.
Speaker 1: It was actually true. They were not enough for their
Speaker 1: enemies without.
Speaker 3: God, but they were not without God. And that's what
Speaker 3: you forget. You forget that he's with you in the wilderness.
Speaker 3: He's with you in the wilderness. He's with you in
Speaker 3: your weakness. He's with you as you fight through this addiction.
Speaker 3: He's with you as you resist temptation. He's with you
Speaker 3: for that hard conversation you need to have. He's with
Speaker 3: you as you care for somebody who doesn't appreciate you.
Speaker 3: He is with you as you work through those bills
Speaker 3: and try to get yourself back on some financial stable ground.
Speaker 3: He's with you as you try to consider how am I.
Speaker 1: Going to mention this so I can begin to deal
Speaker 1: with it? Because I'm tired of caring.
Speaker 3: He is with you in the dry place where you
Speaker 3: haven't felt him for a really long time, and you're
Speaker 3: starting to feel like, well, maybe something's wrong with me,
Speaker 3: Maybe God has left me. But the Bible says that
Speaker 3: Jesus was led into the wilderness by the spirit. It
Speaker 3: says that the spirit led him, but it doesn't say
Speaker 3: the spirit left him. The spirit led him to a
Speaker 3: hard place, but the spirit, it did not leave him
Speaker 3: in the hard place. The same spirit that led him
Speaker 3: in the wilderness was there all forty days and forty nights.
Speaker 3: And I know you need some things in your life
Speaker 3: to get better. And I know you need some chains
Speaker 3: and shackles to fall off your feet. And I know
Speaker 3: you need God to turn some stones into rivers of water.
Speaker 3: And I know you need God to do some things,
Speaker 3: and he can and he will. But even until he does,
Speaker 3: he's with you in this wilderness.
Speaker 1: He's with you in this in between.
Speaker 3: He didn't drop you off in the middle of your adversity.
Speaker 3: He didn't leave you to figure this out by yourself.
Speaker 3: He did not abandon you when you got attacked.
Speaker 1: He's not waiting for you to get it together, to
Speaker 1: come down and rescue you. He picks up.
Speaker 3: The phone, and if you call him, he'll come.
Speaker 1: If you call him, he'll come. If you say.
Speaker 3: Jesus, he'll say, yes, I've done.
Speaker 1: It a thousand times. I didn't feel like.
Speaker 3: Calling on him, but I lifted my hands by faith,
Speaker 3: not sight, bye, faith not feeling, and I called on
Speaker 3: the Lord, and I stuck the Lord and he wards
Speaker 3: and he answered. So I want to give you three
Speaker 3: truths today to remember for new loops in your life.
Speaker 1: And the first one is this.
Speaker 3: I want you to shout it out everybody, say he's here.
Speaker 1: Say that again. He's here.
Speaker 3: Now in the verse I read you. He's not the
Speaker 3: only one here. It's the devil talking. I'm not even
Speaker 3: gonna write out his whole name.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna just put that D right there and you'll
Speaker 1: know who I'm talking about. And then there's Jesus.
Speaker 3: Hold up, I'm gonna do that in all caps. I
Speaker 3: can't draw, but I can do that. Now, listen to me,
Speaker 3: and listen to me. Close about this. It's a conversation
Speaker 3: going back and forth in the wilderness. And the spirit
Speaker 3: is with Jesus to defeat the enemy. The spirit is
Speaker 3: with you to defeat the enemy.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Yeah, I love how we make it seem like
Speaker 5: Jesus as our perfect risen savior, and he is never
Speaker 5: experienced difficulty, or at least you know, we may not
Speaker 5: say that about Jesus because we know we went to
Speaker 5: the cross.
Speaker 3: Sometimes we act like that was the only time that
Speaker 3: Jesus's life was hard. Jesus's life was hard the whole
Speaker 3: time it was hard. This is the brink of his ministry.
Speaker 3: He's thirty years old, and the spirit leads him in
Speaker 3: the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. That's his
Speaker 3: ministry apprenticeship. That's what the Lord gave him. That's what
Speaker 3: his father gave him to prepare him. And so I
Speaker 3: have recognized every time in my life that God was
Speaker 3: about to do something huge. I had to go through
Speaker 3: hell before I got there every time, and I passed
Speaker 3: that along to you. In case you're going through hell,
Speaker 3: you might be on the brink of something huge, and
Speaker 3: the devil might know that, and he might be deploying
Speaker 3: extra resources to try to get you to choke before
Speaker 3: you arrive.
Speaker 1: At your destiny.
Speaker 3: Everything I ever released for God faced tremendous resistance. I
Speaker 3: just say that in case it's been difficult for you
Speaker 3: now With that note made, then Jesus was led by
Speaker 3: the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the
Speaker 3: devil after fasting forty days and forty nights. This has
Speaker 3: to be the most obvious verse in the Bible.
Speaker 1: He was hungry, and.
Speaker 3: Yet it's not because Jesus is saying stuff that his
Speaker 3: disciples like, I have food to eat that you know not.
Speaker 3: But he still had a stomach and it was still empty.
Speaker 3: I fasted forty days one time when we started the church.
Speaker 3: Those were the hardest things I ever did. And people
Speaker 3: told me before I did it, don't worry about it.
Speaker 3: Once you get through the first three days, you don't
Speaker 3: even think about food anymore. And they said it's not
Speaker 3: hard after like day three. Let me tell you something,
Speaker 3: every one of them, I rebuke your lying.
Speaker 1: Spirit, talk about same lies, new loops. It was hard
Speaker 1: the whole time.
Speaker 3: I started dreaming about foods I don't even eat in
Speaker 3: my normal life. I would be I would see brussels
Speaker 3: sprouts and salivate. Now I don't even need bacon in them.
Speaker 3: I just need the Brussels sprout. I'll eat it without oil,
Speaker 3: without salt. The whole forty days. It was hard the
Speaker 3: whole time. And you know, we think that the only
Speaker 3: time that it was hard for Jesus was when he
Speaker 3: went to the cross, because we read about him healing
Speaker 3: blind eyes the highlight reel, and people who couldn't speak
Speaker 3: spoke when he spoke for them to speak. Because whatever
Speaker 3: he speaks to does whatever he says. If he speaks
Speaker 3: to a sea, it's prints, if he speaks to a
Speaker 3: mountain that leaps, whatever he speaks to does what it says,
Speaker 3: except for us. Sometimes I'll come back to that in
Speaker 3: a future series. But it was hard the whole time.
Speaker 3: It was hard for him when he was tempted by
Speaker 3: the devil in the wilderness. His life was hard ever
Speaker 3: since he was a baby. Not only was he born
Speaker 3: in a barn, but Harry tried to kill him from
Speaker 3: the day he was little. He was on the rhine,
Speaker 3: not from the devil, toward the purpose of God for
Speaker 3: his life. So if it's been hard for you, that's okay.
Speaker 3: And the devil will just get you stuck in that
Speaker 3: get you stuck in how hard it is. So I'm
Speaker 3: go ahead and put it there. It's hard, it's hard,
Speaker 3: and you're like that's not a lie.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you about to say that that's
Speaker 1: not true. No, it's true. It's true.
Speaker 3: It's just that if the enemy can get you to
Speaker 3: go from a line to a loop, that instead of
Speaker 3: going through the hard thing, you get stuck in the
Speaker 3: hard thing. That instead of God delivering you through this season,
Speaker 3: you get in this season and you dig down deeper,
Speaker 3: and you actually define yourself by the difficulty of the season.
Speaker 3: Let me speak to that for a moment. Do not
Speaker 3: define yourself by the difficulty of the season. Define yourself
Speaker 3: by the size of your God. Because greater is he
Speaker 3: that is in you than he that's in the world.
Speaker 3: So I'm not saying it's not hard. I'm just saying
Speaker 3: he's bigger than it is. And I am also saying
Speaker 3: that you don't only have a God who stands high
Speaker 3: above the hard things in your life. You have a
Speaker 3: God who became a human and the hard thing.
Speaker 1: The Book of.
Speaker 3: Hebrews, Chapter four, verse thirteen, about verse thirteen says something
Speaker 3: very interesting. He says that that's not the right verse.
Speaker 3: I don't know what the verse is there. It is
Speaker 3: verse fourteen that I gave you earlier. Since we have
Speaker 3: a great high priest. Everybody say, Jesus is high.
Speaker 1: Who has ascended into heaven.
Speaker 3: This is after his resurrection, Jesus the son of God.
Speaker 3: Let us hold firmly to the faith we profess, for
Speaker 3: we do not have a high priest who is unable
Speaker 3: to empathize with our weaknesses. But we have one who
Speaker 3: has been tempted in every way just as we are.
Speaker 1: Yet he did not sin. Here's your shouting verse.
Speaker 3: Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence.
Speaker 3: Somebody shout, He's here, so that we may receive mercy
Speaker 3: and find grace to help us in our time of success,
Speaker 3: our time of blessing, our time of wholeness, our time
Speaker 3: of completeness.
Speaker 1: All of that is true too.
Speaker 3: But if you are in the hour of need right now,
Speaker 3: I know a name that is.
Speaker 1: Greater than your need.
Speaker 3: I don't care what need you name name cancer, named bankruptcy,
Speaker 3: name divorce, name hatred, name evil.
Speaker 1: I know a name that is straight. And when on
Speaker 1: bush he answers.
Speaker 3: High five at least five people say, he answered, I
Speaker 3: turned to the throne and he answered, he answered, He answered,
Speaker 3: God saw humanity striving in our sin, trying to keep
Speaker 3: the law and couldn't do it. Trying to be perfect
Speaker 3: and couldn't do it, trying to keep the commandments and
Speaker 3: couldn't do it. So he handled it himself. He's not
Speaker 3: only a high priest, he became a human. Why he
Speaker 3: came down to handle what you couldn't. Point number one says,
Speaker 3: he's here. Somebody's shout, he's here. Point number two says,
Speaker 3: it's handled. Somebody shout, its handled. I'm trying. If I
Speaker 3: could get three people to agree with me, we could
Speaker 3: get you out of this loop that the people of
Speaker 3: God were in all the way from numbers thirteen. We
Speaker 3: can't attack him. It's too hard for us. It's too
Speaker 3: hard for us.
Speaker 1: It's too hard for us. You know, sometimes we vent
Speaker 1: about our problems to people.
Speaker 3: Be careful who you vent to, because sometimes when you
Speaker 3: start venting, start inventing. I studied, I study, I thought
Speaker 3: about what I wanted to say. I wanted to tell
Speaker 3: you how the Israelites looked at the land that God
Speaker 3: wanted to give them. And remember, they turned something that
Speaker 3: should have been as straight through into a forty year loop.
Speaker 3: And it all started because they were venting. Numbers Chapter
Speaker 3: thirteen out verse number thirty. Then Caleb's silence to people
Speaker 3: before most said we should go up and take possession
Speaker 3: of the land. For we can do it. I know
Speaker 3: we've been slaves for a long time, but we can
Speaker 3: do it. We're sons and daughters of God.
Speaker 1: We can do this.
Speaker 3: God is with uss. Somebody shout, he's here.
Speaker 1: He's here.
Speaker 3: Anything's possible if he's here. Did you see what he
Speaker 3: just did to the sea we came through. When the
Speaker 3: devil gets rhetorical, you get historical, start pointing to stuff
Speaker 3: that God already did and remind him how big your God,
Speaker 3: God is. I got a word for somebody. He already
Speaker 3: handled it. So it's hard, but but that's how you
Speaker 3: break that spiral. That's how you break out of that loop.
Speaker 3: That's how you break out of this stupid, crazy stuff
Speaker 3: that the devil's been feeding you, just like he tried
Speaker 3: to feed Jesus. You break it with a butt.
Speaker 1: Where is y'all's mind? It's hard, but he's here.
Speaker 3: I want everybody that puts that on a post it
Speaker 3: note somewhere around your.
Speaker 1: House this week to tag me. But I don't have
Speaker 1: social media, so I won't see it. But somebody will
Speaker 1: print it. Out and give it to me.
Speaker 3: And one of the reasons I don't have social media
Speaker 3: is because if I had social media on my phone
Speaker 3: right up now, I wouldn't be able to preach discermon
Speaker 3: to you. Because in this season of my life, I
Speaker 3: have got to be very, very careful about the voices.
Speaker 6: That I allow to have weight in my life, because
Speaker 6: I refuse to let the voice of a human keep
Speaker 6: me from hearing from Heaven.
Speaker 1: I must speak what God says is written.
Speaker 3: But tag tag me anyway somebody will somebody will print
Speaker 3: it out for me.
Speaker 1: Hashtag new loops, hashtag less news, new loops.
Speaker 3: Hashtag more word less news. I am saying nothing, but
Speaker 3: what God says is more important than what do you
Speaker 3: think what any human opinion says. So be careful because
Speaker 3: if you keep venting, you might start inventing. You might
Speaker 3: make an enemy out of somebody who is actually your
Speaker 3: brother or sister in Christ. Okay, nw loops is hard,
Speaker 3: But he's here. He's right in the middle of all
Speaker 3: of it. His name is Jesus, and he's here, and
Speaker 3: also is handled Who told the sea? The sprint rhetorical question.
Speaker 3: It says, historical question, God did, who told the mountain
Speaker 3: to move. God did, And I know it is hard,
Speaker 3: but can you believe it is handled? Here's what Caleb said.
Speaker 3: He said, we can certainly do this. God's got us.
Speaker 3: There is a Caleb inside you. There is a Caleb
Speaker 3: inside of you to tell you that you got it,
Speaker 3: to tell you that you don't.
Speaker 1: But he does.
Speaker 3: To tell you that you don't have to respond to
Speaker 3: temporary pressure by making decisions that are going to set
Speaker 3: you back for your destiny.
Speaker 1: The Lord wants you to know its handle.
Speaker 3: And in verse thirty one, the people start responding. The
Speaker 3: men who have gone up said, we can't attack those people.
Speaker 3: They are stronger than we are. It's too hard. It's
Speaker 3: too hard. Verse thirty two, And they spread among the
Speaker 3: Israelites bad report about the land they explored. And they said,
Speaker 3: the land we explored devours those living in it. All
Speaker 3: the people we saw there are of great size. That's true,
Speaker 3: and they're venting. But what's for thirty thirty three We
Speaker 3: saw the Nephilm that the sins of the Nact come
Speaker 3: from the Nephlum. We seem like grasshoppers in our own eyes,
Speaker 3: and we look the same to them. Well, now you're
Speaker 3: inventing because you don't know how you look to them.
Speaker 1: But if you look like that in your eyes, you
Speaker 1: start inventing.
Speaker 3: There have been times in my marriage where I started
Speaker 3: treating Holly like my enemy because of my own insecurity.
Speaker 3: I start pushing her away because of something in me
Speaker 3: that I don't want her to see. So now I'm
Speaker 3: treating the person that God gave me as my help,
Speaker 3: and I am treating them like they are.
Speaker 1: The person that I'm assigned to fight.
Speaker 3: Is your insecurity, leading you to believe your enemy, to
Speaker 3: create new enemies, to join with the words of the enemy.
Speaker 1: Jesus would have none of it.
Speaker 3: When the devil spoke to Jesus, Jesus talked back. Jesus
Speaker 3: talked back, and it was hard, and he was hungry,
Speaker 3: but he understood that the spirit led him to the wilderness.
Speaker 3: But the spirit did not leave him in the wilderness,
Speaker 3: and he understood that his father already had a plan. Now,
Speaker 3: the devil has a plan and God has a plan.
Speaker 1: Which one are you going to go with?
Speaker 3: One plan is to satisfy you temporarily in short term,
Speaker 3: and the other is for you to trust God with
Speaker 3: your tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Because he's the one who's already there.
Speaker 3: The tempter came to him. He was hungry because he
Speaker 3: was human. He's high and holy, but he was born
Speaker 3: as a human to pay the price for our sin.
Speaker 3: And the tempter came to him and said and said,
Speaker 3: if you are the son of God, tell these stones.
Speaker 1: This is gonna be a stone.
Speaker 3: If you are the son of God, tell the stone
Speaker 3: to become bred.
Speaker 1: If you are the son of God, do something.
Speaker 3: To take something that's not supposed to be something and
Speaker 3: make it something that it can't be. Now we already
Speaker 3: know that if Jesus tells the stone to be bread,
Speaker 3: it'll be pumpernickel in a minute. It'll be rye bread
Speaker 3: in a minute before he says the first syllable, it
Speaker 3: will be the softest, warmest loaf of bread. Jesus could
Speaker 3: not only speak to the stone and make it bread.
Speaker 3: He could speak to heaven and rain down butter on
Speaker 3: the bread.
Speaker 1: He could speak to.
Speaker 3: The sun and the sun would toast the slice of
Speaker 3: bread that wasn't there before that was a stone.
Speaker 1: He could do that.
Speaker 3: But watch what he said in verse four. I think
Speaker 3: this is powerful for our lives, Jesus answered. Jesus answered,
Speaker 3: he's fully human, and he's fully God.
Speaker 1: That means he's able to be.
Speaker 3: Tempted, but he's also able to overcome. So when the
Speaker 3: tempter spoke, watch this.
Speaker 1: Answered.
Speaker 3: It is written, man shall not live on bread alone,
Speaker 3: but on every word that comes from the mouth of God,
Speaker 3: the God who spoke to the sea, and it split,
Speaker 3: the God who spoke to the mountain, and it left
Speaker 3: the God who spoke you into existence.
Speaker 1: That's what I live off of. That's what I go by.
Speaker 1: That's my new loop, what God spoke.
Speaker 3: And any time that I get stuck, anytime that I'm
Speaker 3: going around and around this is.
Speaker 1: So messy, I shall probably just start all over.
Speaker 3: Anytime that I feel like what is against me is
Speaker 3: greater than what is for me.
Speaker 1: Here we go, same lies loop. Watch the lie. It's
Speaker 1: not enough.
Speaker 3: You've got to turn the stone into bread because God
Speaker 3: won't provide for you.
Speaker 1: It's not enough.
Speaker 3: But at the heart of this chunk something very interesting
Speaker 3: if you are the son of God, because not only
Speaker 3: it's not enough, but you're not loved, and that there's
Speaker 3: something that you have to do to get God to
Speaker 3: love you. But Jesus knew better. Jesus knew not only
Speaker 3: he's here not only it's handled, but Jesus knew.
Speaker 1: I'm his.
Speaker 3: Think about the absurdity of the devil's impision turn a
Speaker 3: stone into bread. Jesus already is both of those things.
Speaker 1: Peter said it this way.
Speaker 3: The stone that the builders rejecting has become the chief
Speaker 3: corner stone, the rock that Moses drank from in the wilderness,
Speaker 3: the one that God pulled into a pool. Jesus is
Speaker 3: what the devil is trying to tempt him to turn
Speaker 3: something into. And don't even get me started about bread,
Speaker 3: because Jesus is the vibe. Jesus is the bread. Jesus
Speaker 3: is the resurrection.
Speaker 7: Jesus is the way, the truth, the Jesus is the
Speaker 7: good shepherd.
Speaker 3: Jesus is the Gate, and Jesus is the bread. So devil,
Speaker 3: you can't get me what's already mine.
Speaker 7: I belove to God.
Speaker 3: I'm his and he's got me. I'm his, and he
Speaker 3: knows me. I'm his, and he chose me. I'm his,
Speaker 3: and no man can put me from his hand. I'm his,
Speaker 3: I'm called, I'm his, I'm.
Speaker 8: Sustained, I'm his.
Speaker 3: I'm got grace for.
Speaker 1: This season because I am his.
Speaker 7: And he's here, and it's handled because I'm his, because
Speaker 7: he's here, and it's handle because I'm his.
Speaker 1: Till your neighbor be nice to me.
Speaker 3: My father is a great God, tell him be good
Speaker 3: to me because my.
Speaker 1: God is a great king, and he's here in this handle.
Speaker 3: When I do this, receive the word of the Lord.
Speaker 3: My friend, receive the word of the Lord. My brother,
Speaker 3: receive the word of the Lord. Says, receive the word
Speaker 3: of the Lord. Man of God, receive the word of
Speaker 3: the Lord. You pastor receive the word of the Lord.
Speaker 3: Single mom receive the word of the Lord. High school
Speaker 3: student receive the word of the Lord. Recovery Program day
Speaker 3: thirty three.
Speaker 1: Receive the word of the Lord.
Speaker 3: The bread is already here. The song that the builders rechecked.
Speaker 1: It shall become the sheep.
Speaker 3: Warner stone sus you belong to God. Come on, let's
Speaker 3: sit in that for a moment. For every devil this's
Speaker 3: been lieing to you. The devil came at Jesus three
Speaker 3: different ways. He told him, if you're the son of God,
Speaker 3: what you mean if I'm the son of God. Y'all
Speaker 3: never read Matthew chapter three, verse sixteen when you're about to,
Speaker 3: because the Bible says that before Jesus was led into
Speaker 3: the wilderness, he went through the water, and as soon
Speaker 3: as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water.
Speaker 3: At that moment, heaven was opened, and he saw the
Speaker 3: spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him.
Speaker 3: He's here, He's here, And a voice from heaven. Ain't
Speaker 3: it crazy? One verse before he had to deal with
Speaker 3: the voice from hell, God gave him the voice from heaven.
Speaker 3: You need a fresh encounter with Jesus. You need a
Speaker 3: fresh revelation of Jesus. You need a fresh word from God,
Speaker 3: a meditation in your heart. If you don't meditate on
Speaker 3: his word, you're gonna medicate on other stuff, and you
Speaker 3: are gonna choke on stones because you don't have any brand.
Speaker 3: And a voice from heaven said, this is my son
Speaker 3: whom I love.
Speaker 1: With him, I am well pleased.
Speaker 3: So when the devil Matthew four verse one, started tempting
Speaker 3: Jesus in the wilderness, and in verse two, the Bible says,
Speaker 3: after fasting forty days and forty nights, not forty years,
Speaker 3: because Jesus was doing for them what they could not
Speaker 3: do for themselves. Don't you get it? He was in
Speaker 3: the wilderness for you. He was handling it for you.
Speaker 3: He was achieving a righteousness that you and I could
Speaker 3: never achieve. He was paying the price for you. That's
Speaker 3: why the spirit led Jesus into the wilderness, so that
Speaker 3: you would never be there alone again. And when the
Speaker 3: devil said, if you are the son of God turned
Speaker 3: something into something, Jesus said, I'm not turning anything into anything.
Speaker 3: I already know who I am because I'm still dripping
Speaker 3: with the water of the affirmation of my Father in
Speaker 3: this dry place.
Speaker 1: So I don't think so. I don't think so devil.
Speaker 1: I don't think so devil.
Speaker 3: I don't think I'm just gonna be depressed Devil. I
Speaker 3: don't think I'm just gonna live the rest of my
Speaker 3: life reliving and rerunning this and repeating this and dredging
Speaker 3: this back up.
Speaker 1: I don't think so devil.
Speaker 3: I don't think I'm gonna let the world make me
Speaker 3: mad and angry and cynical devil.
Speaker 1: I don't think so devil. I know I'm his.
Speaker 3: I'm a royal people, I'm a chosen priesthood.
Speaker 1: I'm a holy nation. I belong to God. And he
Speaker 1: came at him three ways I'm almost done.
Speaker 9: I know y'all want me to preach for four more hours.
Speaker 9: Come on, four more hours, Come on, four more If
Speaker 9: Jesus could fast forty days, y'all can say five more minutes.
Speaker 3: In this message, he's here say it.
Speaker 1: It's hard, but.
Speaker 3: He's how you get the point. And it's hard, but
Speaker 3: it's handled. Uhh D definitely comes before L in the
Speaker 3: word handle. I do know that, but I was confused
Speaker 3: when it said I'm his, because that's what the Lord
Speaker 3: gave me. That he said was more important than anything else,
Speaker 3: because if you don't believe that you're loved by him,
Speaker 3: you will be trying to turn everything else in your
Speaker 3: life into loaves.
Speaker 1: And he is my favorite verse.
Speaker 3: After the devil tempts Jesus three times because remember defeat
Speaker 3: in victory or in the repeat, so he's not just
Speaker 3: gonna do it once, not just twice, not just three times.
Speaker 3: But after he told him, hey, throw yourself off the
Speaker 3: building and the angels will catch you. Jesus like I
Speaker 3: know the angels on a first name basis, and I
Speaker 3: do not need to do.
Speaker 1: Something to get the angels to come.
Speaker 3: If I ask my father to send angels, they're already
Speaker 3: on the way.
Speaker 1: Ooh, touch three.
Speaker 3: People say they're already on the way. The help you
Speaker 3: need is already on the way. The support you need
Speaker 3: is already on the way. The book you need is
Speaker 3: already in your mailbox. Check your mailbox, the book you
Speaker 3: ordered last week. It's got the answer. It's already on
Speaker 3: the way. And after being tempted, ooh, I feel this
Speaker 3: in my spirit. After he had tempted him as hard
Speaker 3: as he could, tempt him, as hungry as Jesus was,
Speaker 3: tried to get him to step outside of who he was,
Speaker 3: to do something thing that he already did, something that
Speaker 3: he didn't even need from the enemy, because watch this,
Speaker 3: the Bible says in Matthew chapter four, verse number eleven.
Speaker 3: Then the devil left him.
Speaker 1: Oh, come on, get happy. I don't need no music.
Speaker 1: Just get happy. Come on, get happy. Then keep clapping
Speaker 1: so I can erase. Then, come on, come on.
Speaker 8: You want the devil to get up out of your mind.
Speaker 8: You want the devil to get up out of your psychology.
Speaker 8: You want the devil to get out of your kids.
Speaker 8: You want the devil to get out of your feed.
Speaker 8: You want the devil to get out of your all right,
Speaker 8: get happy.
Speaker 1: Then the devil left.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna just start all over, And the Bible says
Speaker 3: verse eleven, isn't on the screen?
Speaker 1: Is verse eleven on the screen? I saw a picture.
Speaker 1: Then the devil left, and.
Speaker 7: Oh, thank you Jesus, that're supposed to be an angel.
Speaker 1: The age Us came. They a'te us came. They ain't
Speaker 1: us came with to hell.
Speaker 3: Just slam the asus.
Speaker 1: Pay touch seven.
Speaker 3: People say, wait for the angel, Wait for the angel.
Speaker 3: Wait for the angel. Wait for the angel. Don't be
Speaker 3: too anxious, it's already on the way. Don't talk yourself
Speaker 3: out of standing strong for Christ. Wait for the angels.
Speaker 3: The angels are on the way. The angels are in room.
Speaker 3: You don't have to throw yourself up a building.
Speaker 7: The Ageus are coming, The angels are coming.
Speaker 1: The angels are coming.
Speaker 3: Somewhere in those forty days, I know Jesus prayed, because
Speaker 3: I don't believe that the devil was the only one
Speaker 3: Jesus was talking to in Matthew chapter four. I believe
Speaker 3: that Jesus, as human and as hungry as he was,
Speaker 3: prayed to his father and said, father, I need you.
Speaker 3: And when he called his father he answered and just
Speaker 3: because the answer.
Speaker 1: Hasn't arrived yet does not mean God didn't send it.
Speaker 3: But in this season, if you start trying to turn
Speaker 3: stones into bread and substitute other human relationships for your
Speaker 3: relationship with God, you will miss your angel because you
Speaker 3: ate something that was never meant to be eaten.
Speaker 1: Stand on your feet. The angels are waiting.
Speaker 3: I believe there's angels come into your house this way.
Speaker 3: I believe angels are coming to somebody's central nervous system
Speaker 3: right now to calm you down. Freaking out swinging at
Speaker 3: stuff that isn't even swinging at you. Stop it, wait
Speaker 3: for the angel. He's here, is handled, You're his. Speak
Speaker 3: those things quietly say, he's here, is handling. I'm his.
Speaker 3: Come here, Abbe, come here, I called, she answered, because
Speaker 3: she's mine.
Speaker 1: Come on up my way up. We love you, Abby answer,
Speaker 1: I'm saying, I love you too. Person I don't know.
Speaker 3: And before we came out, I was showing her my angel.
Speaker 3: I says, it look like an angel. I said, give
Speaker 3: me your hand, put it up. Can y'all get this
Speaker 3: on the screen. I drew those two loops on her hand.
Speaker 3: Now this is my daughter, so I'm saying to her
Speaker 3: and I know fourteen year old can't get a tattoo,
Speaker 3: but if she could, I would probably have her get
Speaker 3: something like this. But I have somebody draw more professionally,
Speaker 3: just to remind her that he's here, that his hand.
Speaker 3: You don't have to keep it all in your hands
Speaker 3: and handle all the way yourself.
Speaker 1: And I'm his, and I'm his.
Speaker 3: Angels are on the way, Angels are on the way,
Speaker 3: angels are on the web.
Speaker 1: He said, what do you mean by that? What do
Speaker 1: you mean by that, Pastor Stephen?
Speaker 3: I mean that God is going to send you the
Speaker 3: help that you need as you call onto him.
Speaker 1: And yesterday, why are we on our knees like this?
Speaker 1: I'll stand up. It's very uncomfortable.
Speaker 3: She had a soccer game yesterday afternoon. Yesterday morning, ten
Speaker 3: am soccer. I want to say, for somebody who's about
Speaker 3: to preach in twenty four hours, I'm always stressed out
Speaker 3: trying to find the soccer field.
Speaker 1: That's my hardest part. I have no sense of direction.
Speaker 1: Holly got there. She sent me a pen.
Speaker 3: I left with plenty of time to part and I
Speaker 3: arrived exactly on time, five minutes to spare to an
Speaker 3: empty church parking lot with no soccer field. I mean,
Speaker 3: I'm just driving talking my friend on the phone talking
Speaker 3: about my sermon to me. I think I'm gon talk
Speaker 3: about the angels and the bread and the stones. This
Speaker 3: is make an offense. He's like, yeah, I'm sure it'll
Speaker 3: get there. But the angels are on the way. The
Speaker 3: angels are on the way. And as I'm on my
Speaker 3: way to the thing, I'm not paying attention, and all
Speaker 3: of a sudden I realize, oh, I'm here, but I'm
Speaker 3: not there. I didn't disobey the GPS. Every turn that
Speaker 3: told me to take I took. I didn't rebel against
Speaker 3: the GPS. Turn right, I don't think so, and listen
Speaker 3: to me. I want to give you this one because
Speaker 3: I need to use it because if something bad happens
Speaker 3: to me, I want to redeem it.
Speaker 1: And there's no really bad part of this story because
Speaker 1: all I did.
Speaker 3: I called Holly, I said, hey, this is weird. I
Speaker 3: went where you sent me to go before you left.
Speaker 3: But I need you to resend it to me now
Speaker 3: that you're there. Because the address that we had, I
Speaker 3: got to.
Speaker 1: The destination that it was taking me to.
Speaker 3: But the destination that was taking me to was not
Speaker 3: the destination.
Speaker 1: Where you are?
Speaker 3: I said, so what do I do? She said, I'm
Speaker 3: gonna drop you a new pin because she's here. Now,
Speaker 3: everybody say he's here.
Speaker 1: Because she's here now.
Speaker 3: I said, all right, and then I put it in
Speaker 3: and it was fifteen minutes away.
Speaker 1: I fifteen minutes off and then I drove somewhere and
Speaker 1: then the GPS took me down this very strange dirt road. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was the weirdest thing. The sign said keep out,
Speaker 1: and I went through anyway because the GPS told me to.
Speaker 3: I'm just obeying the GPS, you know. And of course
Speaker 3: it's a dead end. It's some weird looking government building.
Speaker 3: I don't even know where I was or what was
Speaker 3: about to happen to me. I don't know what got
Speaker 3: in my GPS. So I called her again. I said, okay,
Speaker 3: let's try it different this time. You're already there. Tell
Speaker 3: me how to get there from where I am. And
Speaker 3: she said, okay, well you it's the road, and she's
Speaker 3: pretty good with directions. So she started describing it to
Speaker 3: me because she was there, and she said, he just
Speaker 3: stay on the phone with me for a minute. She said,
Speaker 3: all right, turn here. There's a long road. There's a
Speaker 3: classic car show. Don't turn into that, keep driving, because
Speaker 3: she'd already seen all that, because she was there, because
Speaker 3: we have not a high priest who is unable to
Speaker 3: sympathize or empathize with our weaknesses, because he was tempted.
Speaker 1: In the wilderness.
Speaker 3: And so.
Speaker 1: Then she really really put the cherry on top.
Speaker 3: She said, I'm wearing my bright yellow hat, and you
Speaker 3: can see me, and I'll wave you in, and i
Speaker 3: will block this pickup truck that's.
Speaker 1: Trying to take this parking space until you get here.
Speaker 10: And I saw that yellow hat, and I saw my
Speaker 10: woman standing there waiting for me, and I realized what
Speaker 10: was wrong.
Speaker 1: In that moment. I didn't need a pen. I needed
Speaker 1: a person. I needed somebody who was already there to
Speaker 1: guide me in.
Speaker 3: Now, you keep trying to fight temptation in your own strength,
Speaker 3: you're gonna stay lost. You're gonna think you're taking the
Speaker 3: right turns, you're gonna think.
Speaker 1: You're doing the right things.
Speaker 3: But Jesus said, hey, I'll be standing in your next
Speaker 3: five minutes.
Speaker 1: I'll be standing in your Tuesday. I will be waving
Speaker 1: you in. You look for me, you stay with me,
Speaker 1: and I'll answer. He answered.
Speaker 3: He answered, Jesus, answered the devil, because the Father already
Speaker 3: answered him.
Speaker 1: And the angels are.
Speaker 3: On the way.
Speaker 1: I call God on the mountain. I call God in
Speaker 1: the valley.
Speaker 3: I call God on the good days, and I call God.
Speaker 1: In he surrounds me. Call God just to tell him,
Speaker 1: just to say.
Speaker 3: Call.
Speaker 1: God's saying. So one thing you could do.
Speaker 3: You could just lift your hands to your father right now.
Speaker 1: I call God on the mountain.
Speaker 3: I call God, he answered, Oh God, he answered Jesus,
Speaker 3: he'll answer you. And the Lord is in this place
Speaker 3: with your God. Angels in your wilderness man.
Speaker 1: Angels in your try place. He turned stones into pools
Speaker 1: of waters. I call God. I call God. I call God.
Speaker 1: Let's have a little grace party of God. Let's get
Speaker 1: it warmed up. Baby. I call God where you ask
Speaker 1: you SECTION call God.
Speaker 3: Just a thank you, Susan said, See my new friend God,
Speaker 3: my new briend.
