-
I'm so thankful for what I feel in my soul. There's a lot of
-
you sick. I think there's fifteen of your present who have COVID, but
-
you're here in the House of the Lord, about seventy people here. We
-
ask you to be very careful and very safe around those that have COVID.
-
You know who they are. And also you saw on the glass door there's
-
a sign posted for you to enter at your own risk. And it was
-
your choice to be here. It looks to me like everybody was here but
-
just a couple, and I thank the Lord for that. I'm glad I
-
was here this morning. In spite of this fabricated, manufactured virus. We've
-
been dealing with it now for four years. They knew what they were doing
-
when they unleashed it, and here it is again, purposing in such a
-
mighty way during an election year or elections. We'll see what they do with
-
it. But it'd be easy for them to do the mail in balance again
-
and all of that. But we're glad you're here, and we're so thankful
-
that you came. We're fixing to dismiss as Brother Stereo was preaching. I
-
thought of Psalm sixteen or worst number six instead of y'all check that out.
-
You got your bibles, we'll go to the house here Momentarily, that sixteenth
-
chapter of the Book of Psalm is a psalm of Coved and he was asking
-
for God's preservation because of plead for preservation, and then he just says,
-
Lord, I'm just gonna have to put my trust in you. We can't
-
trust very many people nowadays, but we can always put our trust in the
-
Lord. And if you look at verse number five of the sixteenth chapter of
-
Salmi said, the Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup.
-
Thou maintain us my life. And look at verse six, the lines
-
are falling unto me in pleasant places. Yay. I have a goodly heritage,
-
and I appreciate that preaching this morning. It did something for my soul.
-
I thank God for our goodly heritage. I thank God for a godly
-
heritage. And there is no doubt King David could celebrate his heritage. Don't
-
ever ever abandon your roots if you have godly roots and good new roots.
-
So what is it that keeps us in line? What is it that keeps
-
us in bounds? What is it that keeps us in its borders, the
-
Word of God. I thank God for the Word of God. That is
-
what keeps us in bound. That is our borders. The Word of God
-
is our border lives. You want to know how not to trespass against God,
-
look in the Word of God. You can stay in found, stay
-
in your territory, stay in a proper place by having the word of God.
-
And his brother fled out delivered the Word of God to us this morning.
-
And I appreciate the good book. And I want to point out one
-
more thing to you. Ysama said, thy word have I hid in my
-
heart that I might not sin against God. The technology is here now for
-
them to put a shift in your brain and upload the entire King James translation
-
of the Bible, and for you to be able to recite it verse by
-
verse, chapter by chapter, book by book at any time. But if
-
it's not in your heart, it's going to be a nun effect. It
-
will be entirely ineffective. I've seen preachers that have the ability to memorize versus
-
chapters, entire books, and they didn't ever let it get in their heart,
-
and they never applied it. They heard it, they never needed it.
-
And there's some of them backslid and they still know that Bible. They
-
have it in their mind, but they won't have it in their heart.
-
So I want us to take what was said this morning to heart again.
-
Let that resonate, Let that stir you up. Think about that. They
-
can put a chip in your brain right now and put the entire English translation,
-
the King James version of the Bible in your head and you can recall
-
it, but it won't change you. But if you get it in your
-
heart right, you won't send it against God. And again I want to
-
put an emphasis on this. We won't get out of our territory as Christians.
-
We won't get out and the balance of God and the restraints of God
-
if we live by the book. This is the believer's handbook. This is
-
the Holy People's handbook. And it's been said before that the word Bible can
-
represent this. It could be an acronym for this basic constructions before leaving her.
-
So I thank the Lord for the Bible. I appreciate this message this
-
morning. I appreciate you being in the house of God. I love what
-
brothers Dark said. We're not gonna have fear over a virus. We're gonna
-
have faith, so y'all pray for one another. Let us stand to be
-
dismissed. Thank you for coming to the house of the Lord.
