[00:00.000 --> 00:30.000] Music playing
[00:30.000 --> 00:52.000] Good morning, good morning, good morning, one and all. Welcome to this beautiful Monday morning that God has decided to bless us in today. I hope all is well with all of you on this Monday morning. I hope you went to church yesterday, gave God some praise, you know, I was in a service yesterday.
[00:53.000 --> 01:01.000] That just touched my soul, gave me something to meditate on, gave me something to think about, you know, that's what fellowship is all about.
[01:01.000 --> 01:12.000] So guys, this Monday morning, we're going to jump right back into Moses. We're back in numbers. We're back in numbers, chapter 22.
[01:12.000 --> 01:31.000] But before we do that, let's thank our guests that we've had on so far. I hope you guys caught Kristin Owens from health, healing and holiness podcast as well as she has been a nutritionist in the business for over 30 plus years.
[01:31.000 --> 01:52.000] So she knows what she's talking about guys. If you enjoyed that segment with us on Friday, head on over to Kristin's podcast, get you some inspiration for the day from her on nutrition and food and everything else that she is going to put out their information for us.
[01:52.000 --> 02:08.000] As well as thank you again to Minister Keith Farmer for coming on to the show. And we walked by faith and he was talking to us about our faith walk, how to stay encouraged on our faith walk, and how to start our faith walk.
[02:08.000 --> 02:21.000] So if you missed those two episodes, go on back over and listen to them. They are available by audio now, as well as the listening platform Spotify.
[02:22.000 --> 02:34.000] Amazon, Apple, they are also now on YouTube going over and take a listen. So let's dig in this morning. We're gonna time the cameras off. I got a lot of reading that we're going to be doing this morning.
[02:34.000 --> 02:45.000] So let's go ahead and give guys some praise. I'm sure you guys don't want to look at my head the whole time. And let's get into this word. Okay. So
[02:45.000 --> 02:57.000] Heavenly Father, we come before the throne this morning. We come humbly but boldly with open minds and open hearts on Heavenly Father.
[02:57.000 --> 03:05.000] We thank you this morning for your grace and your mercy because we know that it is new every single day.
[03:05.000 --> 03:11.000] Heavenly Father, we come this morning with praises in our mouths. Hallelujah.
[03:11.000 --> 03:21.000] We come this morning because we know Father God, you are able to do all things in our lives. And we just bless your name today, Lord.
[03:21.000 --> 03:30.000] As we go about our day to day, Father God, let our hearts and our minds stay steadfast on your word to day, Father God.
[03:30.000 --> 03:35.000] May your word be etched across the tables of our heart, Father God.
[03:35.000 --> 03:50.000] Give us this day your daily bread, Heavenly Father. Heavenly Father, we come boldly but humbly and ask, Father God, that you forgive us for anything that we said, done or fault that was unpleasing unto you, O Heavenly Father.
[03:50.000 --> 03:59.000] Heavenly Father, as we go about our day to day, make our cricket path straight, O Heavenly Father, bring us out of the dark into the light, Father God.
[03:59.000 --> 04:07.000] Let our light shine before men so that they will know our good works and glorify you, our Father, in heaven, Father God.
[04:07.000 --> 04:22.000] Because Father God, we know that it's not able. We are not able. It is not pleasing unto you if we walk around with so much in our hearts.
[04:22.000 --> 04:30.000] We know that it's not pleasing unto you if we walk around with doubt, or a ration.
[04:30.000 --> 04:40.000] Heavenly Father, so we give it all to you. We make you today the cornerstone of our lives on this day.
[04:40.000 --> 04:46.000] Heavenly Father, we know that it's impossible to please you without faith.
[04:46.000 --> 04:57.000] But you are a rewarder of those who diligently seek you. And we thank you this day, Father God, for all that you have done and all that you will do.
[04:57.000 --> 05:08.000] We plead the blood over our lives today, Father God. May your word take root inside of us, sprout and multiply.
[05:09.000 --> 05:19.000] Empty us of ourselves this day, Father God, right now in this moment, so that we may hear a word from you, let our hearts and our minds be open.
[05:19.000 --> 05:24.000] In Jesus' name, we pray, Amen and Amen.
[05:24.000 --> 05:33.000] So guys, I know it's been a minute since we talked about numbers, but you got to let God lead you where he's going to lead you.
[05:33.000 --> 05:42.000] And for the last couple of weeks, he's been dealing with some things with me, you know, and I thought I would share him with you guys this morning.
[05:42.000 --> 05:54.000] We're going to read out of the NIV version. It's a simplified version. I prefer it sometimes over reading out of my King James as well as reading out of my new King James.
[05:54.000 --> 06:04.000] I mean, in the Old Testament, they had some names that, you know, they all sound a little bit alike, but they're pronounced a little bit differently.
[06:04.000 --> 06:11.000] And like I told you guys before, if you're new joining the show, go on over and get you that Bible app.
[06:11.000 --> 06:20.000] It's called biblical pronunciations of names. And I got that app and I just love it, love it, love it.
[06:20.000 --> 06:24.000] It helps me when I fall short on pronouncing names.
[06:24.000 --> 06:28.000] So quick recap.
[06:28.000 --> 06:35.000] Of course, the Israelites were complaining, complaining, complaining. That's what they do.
[06:35.000 --> 06:40.000] No matter what God has done for them, bring them out of Egypt.
[06:40.000 --> 06:45.000] You know, a three days journey turned into a 40 year journey.
[06:45.000 --> 06:52.000] They talked against Moses. They complained against Moses. They complained about the food.
[06:52.000 --> 06:57.000] Miriam and Aaron had to be chastised by God.
[06:57.000 --> 07:04.000] And what we left off is Miriam had already gone on.
[07:04.000 --> 07:11.000] And we left off at the water from the rock.
[07:11.000 --> 07:21.000] Where God had told Moses to speak to the rock and Moses struck the rock.
[07:21.000 --> 07:33.000] So since then, Edom has denied Israel passage throughout their land so they could get to where they're going.
[07:34.000 --> 07:42.000] We've also found out that Abraham has died and God commanded Moses to bring up his son.
[07:42.000 --> 07:47.000] Remove his garments and put them on his son, Eliezer.
[07:47.000 --> 07:52.000] As well as right now, we're in Numbers chapter 21.
[07:52.000 --> 08:00.000] And we're going to start to read from there and see what else is going on because so far the people have been on a little journey.
[08:00.000 --> 08:08.000] That's why they were trying to go through Edom to get where they're going to the land of milk and honey.
[08:08.000 --> 08:19.000] So when the Canaanites king of Arad, who lived in Naveen, heard that the Israelites was coming along the road to Athens.
[08:19.000 --> 08:22.000] He attacked the Israelites and captured some of them.
[08:22.000 --> 08:25.000] Then the Israelites made this vow to the Lord.
[08:25.000 --> 08:33.000] If you would deliver us from these people, if you would deliver these people into our hands, we will totally destroy their cities.
[08:33.000 --> 08:38.000] The Lord listened to Israel's plea and gave the Canaanites over to them.
[08:38.000 --> 08:41.000] They completely destroyed them and their towns.
[08:41.000 --> 08:47.000] So the place was named Horma, the Bronze Snake.
[08:47.000 --> 08:53.000] They traveled from Mount Hore along the root of the Red Sea to go through Edom.
[08:53.000 --> 08:57.000] But the people grew impatient on the way.
[08:57.000 --> 09:04.000] They spoke against God and against Moses and said, why have you brought us up to Egypt to die in the wilderness?
[09:04.000 --> 09:10.000] There is no bread, there is no water, and we detest this miserable food.
[09:10.000 --> 09:14.000] Here they go again, guys. Complaining, complaining, complaining.
[09:14.000 --> 09:18.000] And the Lord sent venomous snakes among them.
[09:18.000 --> 09:21.000] They built the people and many Israelites died.
[09:21.000 --> 09:28.000] The people came to Moses and said, we have sin when we spoke against the Lord and against you.
[09:28.000 --> 09:32.000] Pray that the Lord will take these snakes away from us.
[09:32.000 --> 09:35.000] So Moses prayed for the people.
[09:35.000 --> 09:40.000] And the Lord said to Moses, make a snake and put it up on the pole.
[09:40.000 --> 09:44.000] Anyone who is bitten can look at it and live.
[09:44.000 --> 09:48.000] So Moses made a Bronze Snake and put it on the pole.
[09:48.000 --> 09:55.000] And then when everyone who was bitten by the snake had looked upon the Bronze Snake, they lived.
[09:55.000 --> 10:00.000] So guys, they journeyed on to mope.
[10:00.000 --> 10:05.000] The Israelites moved on and camped at Oboth.
[10:05.000 --> 10:16.000] Then they set out from Oboth and camped in I, Abram, in the wilderness that faces mope towards the sunrise.
[10:16.000 --> 10:21.000] From there they moved on and camped in Z-Red Valley.
[10:21.000 --> 10:33.000] They set out from there and camped along the Aronon, which is the wilderness extended until the Morites territory.
[10:34.000 --> 10:38.000] So right there, I'm going to stop.
[10:38.000 --> 10:43.000] It's a little bit more that we can go into.
[10:43.000 --> 10:54.000] But they began to sing a song about the wars that our God and Heaven allowed them to be triumphant.
[10:54.000 --> 10:58.000] But I want to move back a little bit again.
[10:58.000 --> 11:00.000] And all of this is repetitious.
[11:00.000 --> 11:11.000] If you've been following for a while since we started reading from Genesis to here, you can see how the people are always complaining about something.
[11:11.000 --> 11:18.000] And always wanting Moses and Abram at the time to pray to them for the Lord.
[11:18.000 --> 11:25.000] It's kind of like a small child touching something that you keep telling them, stop, don't do that.
[11:25.000 --> 11:27.000] Don't say that.
[11:27.000 --> 11:45.000] Much as some of us, even in our older adult lives, still do complaining and moaning about things, taking it to God, laying it at his feet, picking it back up, taking it back to God, laying it at his feet, and picking it back up.
[11:45.000 --> 11:58.000] The lesson I have learned since we have been journeying with the Israelites through this wilderness is don't take something to God.
[11:58.000 --> 12:04.000] Don't curse God or our Lord.
[12:04.000 --> 12:08.000] Don't place it at his feet and pick it back up.
[12:08.000 --> 12:22.000] I know that it is hard to do sometimes, especially when you're going through something that to you, it seems, you know, you just can't see a way through.
[12:22.000 --> 12:27.000] And it's coming around the corner within the 24 48 hours.
[12:27.000 --> 12:32.000] And we sometimes tend to pick our put our hands back in it and pick it back up.
[12:32.000 --> 12:36.000] I know I certainly can attest to that.
[12:36.000 --> 12:46.000] But as I walk with my Heavenly Father these days, he's starting to reshape, make, and mold me.
[12:46.000 --> 12:56.000] And that's an area of our lives, the walk, shaping your mind, shaping your thoughts, how you feel about particular things.
[12:56.000 --> 13:06.000] And especially this one right here is very important not to lay your problems at the feet of the Lord and pick it back up.
[13:06.000 --> 13:15.000] You have to stand firm on that he heard you, that he's going to preach the provider of all your needs.
[13:15.000 --> 13:18.000] He's going to send someone or something along.
[13:18.000 --> 13:27.000] And if he doesn't quite in the time that you're expecting him to do it, it is all on his time.
[13:27.000 --> 13:41.000] He said in his words, he know our thoughts before we knew our own thoughts that his thoughts for us are high above whatever we could possibly imagine.
[13:41.000 --> 13:46.000] And I want to say to you guys this morning, hold on to that.
[13:46.000 --> 13:53.000] Hold on to the fact that you know that God's promises for you is everlasting.
[13:53.000 --> 14:00.000] That he's never going to put you in a situation that you can't handle.
[14:00.000 --> 14:12.000] But what he will do is sometimes if we don't learn the lesson, just like here with his people, a three days journey ended up being a 40 year thing.
[14:12.000 --> 14:20.000] And not only with the people, Moses, he gets shestized for striking the rock.
[14:20.000 --> 14:24.000] Aaron gets shestized, Miriam dies.
[14:24.000 --> 14:27.000] She talked about Moses with Aaron.
[14:27.000 --> 14:35.000] The people, they've lost a lot of people along the way, a generation of people.
[14:35.000 --> 14:45.000] But the one thing about this passage that remains the same, God's love and the fact that he stands firm on his promises.
[14:45.000 --> 14:47.000] He's not like us.
[14:47.000 --> 14:54.000] We say something to people, maybe promise someone something and fall through.
[14:54.000 --> 15:01.000] Sometimes don't even have the courage to tell that person that you know what, I'm just not able to do that.
[15:02.000 --> 15:04.000] But God never lets us down.
[15:04.000 --> 15:12.000] Sometimes it may seem like it, but in the most unusual ways, he will come through.
[15:12.000 --> 15:27.000] And when you stop festering on that thing that you laid at his feet and continue to seek him, seek the kingdom of God first, before you know it, the thing you laid at his feet.
[15:27.000 --> 15:32.000] It'll come back around and you will have that aha moment.
[15:32.000 --> 15:35.000] Because this happened to your girl.
[15:35.000 --> 15:44.000] I then laid things at God's feet that I forgot about because I'm determined to move on, to strive on.
[15:44.000 --> 15:53.000] To do what he said to keep my mind steadfast on his word, keep my mind in heavenly places.
[15:53.000 --> 15:56.000] Let him come along and give the increase.
[15:56.000 --> 16:01.000] Let him come along and do what his will is for my life.
[16:01.000 --> 16:13.000] And months later I could be driving or even sitting in my car and that thing that I asked God for six months or a year later, it will come my way in the most and unusual way.
[16:13.000 --> 16:19.000] The one thing that I can't seem to wrap my head around though, guys, is his people.
[16:19.000 --> 16:24.000] He called them his first born.
[16:24.000 --> 16:40.000] And when he told Pharaoh, when he took them from Pharaoh, when he was battling on their behalf, he told Pharaoh, take your hands off of my son.
[16:40.000 --> 16:42.000] Or I'll take your son.
[16:42.000 --> 16:48.000] The whole congregation, all these people, thousands of people.
[16:48.000 --> 16:50.000] He called them my first born.
[16:50.000 --> 16:52.000] We're his first born.
[16:52.000 --> 16:55.000] He's never going to let us down.
[16:55.000 --> 16:57.000] He's never going to let us down.
[16:57.000 --> 17:00.000] But we have to get out of our own way.
[17:00.000 --> 17:09.000] We have to start thinking like God, walking like God, talking like God, the tongue, the power of the tongue can destroy you, make you or born.
[17:09.000 --> 17:12.000] You make you or break you.
[17:12.000 --> 17:17.000] Speak those things in existence as though they were.
[17:17.000 --> 17:20.000] That's what my Bible tells me.
[17:20.000 --> 17:24.000] And then wait, wait in expectation.
[17:24.000 --> 17:27.000] My Bible tells me that too.
[17:27.000 --> 17:29.000] Speak those things over your life.
[17:29.000 --> 17:34.000] I am successful in all areas of my life.
[17:34.000 --> 17:36.000] I am healthy.
[17:36.000 --> 17:38.000] I do have that job.
[17:38.000 --> 17:42.000] I do have that relationship with my Heavenly Father.
[17:42.000 --> 17:43.000] I am his child.
[17:43.000 --> 17:48.000] He tells us in his word, we are his children.
[17:48.000 --> 17:56.000] So I sit at the table of a king every day all day.
[17:56.000 --> 17:58.000] Every day all day.
[17:58.000 --> 18:03.000] I just got to make myself available to him.
[18:03.000 --> 18:15.000] So, as we mantra to chapter 22, we're going to find out this week that Balaam and Balak enter the picture.
[18:15.000 --> 18:27.000] And I want you guys to take particularly notice to this situation because Balak summons Balaam.
[18:27.000 --> 18:32.000] Because he has heard how the Israelites, God's people,
[18:32.000 --> 18:37.000] has defeated all these different people, the Amorites.
[18:37.000 --> 18:43.000] And he summons Balaam to curse God's people.
[18:43.000 --> 18:49.000] And this dibbles and dabbles and curses, witchcraft and all that stuff.
[18:49.000 --> 18:56.000] And we're going to see how God shows his stuff mighty on the behalf of his people.
[18:56.000 --> 19:01.000] Because when you're walking with God, you don't need nobody to tell you.
[19:01.000 --> 19:04.000] You don't need a fortune teller.
[19:04.000 --> 19:06.000] You don't need no tarot card readers.
[19:06.000 --> 19:09.000] Because here's the thing about that.
[19:09.000 --> 19:19.000] The thing about that is if God wanted you to know the plans that he had for you, he would lay them at your doorstep.
[19:19.000 --> 19:23.000] You would have no need for him.
[19:23.000 --> 19:30.000] I heard a message a few weeks ago that broke that down to me a little bit better.
[19:30.000 --> 19:33.000] And the guy that was talking, he was a minister.
[19:33.000 --> 19:39.000] He said, I asked God one day, why do we have to have faith?
[19:39.000 --> 19:47.000] And he said, God gave him the simplest answer because you can't give me anything else.
[19:47.000 --> 19:49.000] And we can't.
[19:49.000 --> 19:53.000] He breathes his breath into our bodies every day.
[19:53.000 --> 19:58.000] He makes a way out of no way every single day.
[19:58.000 --> 20:05.000] What else can you give your Heavenly Father besides your time, your attention, and your obedience?
[20:05.000 --> 20:08.000] You can't give him nothing else.
[20:08.000 --> 20:17.000] So if he wanted us to see into our futures, as he said in this word, my ways and my plans of thoughts
[20:17.000 --> 20:21.000] that I have for you are far above than what you could possibly imagine.
[20:21.000 --> 20:27.000] Someone right now may be believing God for a brand new house, brand new car, even maybe to
[20:27.000 --> 20:31.000] maybe to win the lottery.
[20:31.000 --> 20:38.000] But if you just think about that fault and it came true and what God just said, my thoughts
[20:38.000 --> 20:46.000] that I have for you are far above anything you could possibly imagine.
[20:46.000 --> 20:53.000] So if that's the case, you can't conjure up anything in your mind.
[20:53.000 --> 21:01.000] No one else can conjure up anything in their mind to know the plans that God has for you.
[21:01.000 --> 21:07.000] So I hope you join me back here on Wednesday morning as we get into chapter 22.
[21:07.000 --> 21:10.000] I didn't read all of chapter 21.
[21:10.000 --> 21:16.000] They go into songs and it's not bad to have a song on your heart.
[21:16.000 --> 21:25.000] But it just talks about how they settled in the land of Amorites that Moses sent spies to Jazir
[21:25.000 --> 21:31.000] and the Israelites captured and surrounded a couple of Amorites back then.
[21:31.000 --> 21:41.000] It also brings King Beishon onto the interplay as they marched down and took over his whole army.
[21:41.000 --> 21:48.000] But it just tells us as God begins to do what he said he was going to do.
[21:48.000 --> 21:56.000] He told his people, I am going to deliver the hands of your enemies into your hands.
[21:56.000 --> 21:59.000] Why are they doubting? Why are they complaining?
[21:59.000 --> 22:02.000] I have no idea. But we do it today.
[22:02.000 --> 22:05.000] We do it today. We'll turn around and praise God.
[22:05.000 --> 22:07.000] Have a great day at church.
[22:07.000 --> 22:11.000] May it may extend into that Monday, maybe that Tuesday.
[22:11.000 --> 22:17.000] But someone will come along and say something to us and we'll get all in our feelings about something or all in our thoughts.
[22:17.000 --> 22:24.000] You know, the mind, the mind is Satan's playground.
[22:24.000 --> 22:30.000] But he better do it while he can now.
[22:30.000 --> 22:35.000] Because when God has his way in your lives,
[22:35.000 --> 22:38.000] he can't do no more than you let him.
[22:38.000 --> 22:40.000] You begin to lock him out of your thoughts.
[22:40.000 --> 22:44.000] Your answers to people become a little different.
[22:44.000 --> 22:51.000] Even if they come to you agitate it, you respond differently.
[22:51.000 --> 22:53.000] All of that is God.
[22:53.000 --> 22:55.000] But you got to pick up your word.
[22:55.000 --> 22:58.000] You got to meditate on his word day and night.
[22:58.000 --> 23:01.000] You got to find your scripture for the day.
[23:01.000 --> 23:06.000] So that his words, his daily bread can be etched across the tables of your heart.
[23:06.000 --> 23:08.000] That's your weapon.
[23:08.000 --> 23:09.000] That is your weapon.
[23:09.000 --> 23:12.000] If you don't know God, their word is your weapon.
[23:12.000 --> 23:18.000] And then you take it back to God and you tell him, you say it.
[23:18.000 --> 23:21.000] That all I had to do was ask it of you and so shall it be.
[23:21.000 --> 23:29.000] Father God, you said that you wished above all things that I would prosper and be in good health.
[23:29.000 --> 23:35.000] Father God, you said that you prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies
[23:35.000 --> 23:41.000] and your anoint my head with oil, that my cup runeth over surely goodness and mercy
[23:41.000 --> 23:43.000] will follow me all the days of my life.
[23:43.000 --> 23:46.000] And I would dwell in the house of the Lord.
[23:46.000 --> 23:50.000] You got to talk to God like you talk to an ordinary person.
[23:50.000 --> 23:53.000] Whether you're washing the dishes, whether you're driving your car,
[23:53.000 --> 23:57.000] and it's okay to scream out and say, God, I just don't know.
[23:58.000 --> 24:00.000] I don't know which way to go.
[24:00.000 --> 24:05.000] It ain't for us to know, but he want to hear from you.
[24:05.000 --> 24:10.000] It's okay to fellowship with your brothers and your sisters.
[24:10.000 --> 24:14.000] Even ask somebody to pray for you.
[24:14.000 --> 24:17.000] But you know what else is okay?
[24:17.000 --> 24:21.000] It's okay for you to cry out to your heavenly Father for yourself.
[24:21.000 --> 24:24.000] Ask him to make your cricket pass straight.
[24:24.000 --> 24:31.000] Ask him to ask him to ask him to etch the daily bread across the tables of your heart.
[24:31.000 --> 24:36.000] You begin to walk different, speak different, talk different.
[24:36.000 --> 24:42.000] And he didn't say that we could not be angry because sometimes we get in situations where
[24:42.000 --> 24:48.000] we're a little bit flustered, but he did say be angry, but sin not.
[24:48.000 --> 24:54.000] That comes about the thoughts, the things that come into your mouth, and your actions.
[24:54.000 --> 25:02.000] So as we begin to move over into chapter 22, and Baylach and Salem come on the scene,
[25:02.000 --> 25:11.000] we're going to find out why God is a glorious, mighty, magnificent God,
[25:11.000 --> 25:15.000] and everything that he said will come to pass.
[25:15.000 --> 25:19.000] He said, I will fight your battles.
[25:19.000 --> 25:21.000] He said that in his word.
[25:21.000 --> 25:25.000] You guys know one of my favorite passages of Psalm 91.
[25:25.000 --> 25:28.000] He who dwells in his secret place,
[25:28.000 --> 25:33.000] shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
[25:33.000 --> 25:39.000] So as long as I talk to him, get behind closed doors and spend some time with our Heavenly Father,
[25:39.000 --> 25:42.000] I am abiding under his Almighty.
[25:42.000 --> 25:46.000] I am covered by the blood.
[25:46.000 --> 25:48.000] And I do say that.
[25:48.000 --> 25:53.000] I plead the blood over my life because I know the blood still works.
[25:53.000 --> 25:55.000] It still works.
[25:55.000 --> 26:00.000] God wants to do some amazing things with his rams in the bush.
[26:00.000 --> 26:06.000] But we got to stand up, take our right for places as men and women.
[26:06.000 --> 26:10.000] God walking and talking like him.
[26:10.000 --> 26:18.000] Showing the world what love looks like because having a relationship with our Heavenly Father is love.
[26:18.000 --> 26:19.000] God is about love.
[26:19.000 --> 26:25.000] Look how many times these people have turned their back on him.
[26:25.000 --> 26:27.000] And he love them anyway.
[26:27.000 --> 26:30.000] He love them pass their faults.
[26:30.000 --> 26:34.000] Peace and blessings to you all until Wednesday morning.
[26:34.000 --> 26:36.000] Get in your word.
[26:36.000 --> 26:38.000] Find your little piece of paper.
[26:38.000 --> 26:40.000] Write you a scripture on it.
[26:40.000 --> 26:46.000] We'll carry it around with you all week long until he adds those words across the table of your heart.
[26:46.000 --> 26:48.000] And show it in action.
[26:48.000 --> 26:49.000] Show it in action.
[26:49.000 --> 26:51.000] I challenge you today.
[26:51.000 --> 26:56.000] Someone that has gotten on your nerves at that job, in your family,
[26:56.000 --> 27:03.000] I challenge you today to free yourself from that, from them.
[27:03.000 --> 27:07.000] Say something kind.
[27:07.000 --> 27:09.000] Apologize anyway.
[27:09.000 --> 27:15.000] I did that a few weeks ago to someone I know that I didn't wrong.
[27:15.000 --> 27:20.000] But God laid it on my heart to apologize anyway.
[27:20.000 --> 27:24.000] I said, Lord, I ain't wrong in that situation.
[27:24.000 --> 27:28.000] And he said, be quick to apologize.
[27:28.000 --> 27:31.000] Forgiveness to your adversary.
[27:32.000 --> 27:34.000] I felt better.
[27:34.000 --> 27:36.000] The person kind of looked at me weird.
[27:36.000 --> 27:40.000] I don't know if it was shock or what it was.
[27:40.000 --> 27:43.000] But I was obedient to my Heavenly Father.
[27:43.000 --> 27:45.000] I challenge you today.
[27:45.000 --> 27:50.000] Your adversary, someone that you just can't bring yourself.
[27:50.000 --> 27:52.000] Oh, my God, he or she got on my nerves.
[27:52.000 --> 27:54.000] They said something wrong.
[27:54.000 --> 27:55.000] They did something wrong.
[27:55.000 --> 28:00.000] My challenge to you is to free yourself and let God be the rewarder.
[28:00.000 --> 28:05.000] Of those things that he has for you in your life.
[28:05.000 --> 28:07.000] Peace and blessings to you all.
[28:07.000 --> 28:10.000] Until next time.
