-
but I do a lot of riding, a lot of listening,
-
and I was listening to this particular song. And when
-
he asked me to stand in for him, I said, sure.
-
Why not? And the Lord give me.

Amen. Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, if.
-
You go with me to do the room of the
-
thirty three a twenty five, that's what we're going to.
-
So why our foundation is coming from the day and
-
most of you are probably familiar with the scripture, but
-
I'm gonna lay some groundwork. It says if you got
-
to say, amen, amen, Amen, their shoes shall be ironed
-
and brass as their things, so shall their strength be.
-
'm got me read that again till you cause I'm
-
gonna break this down to you because I want you
-
to understand who you wield.
-
The shoes shall be as iron.
-
Somebody say that's hard, and brad, somebody said that's expensive.
-
And as there are days soul shall strength be. Somebody
-
say he calculated everything before I got to it. So
-
I'm built for this. Father God, I ask you bless
-
your word now in Jesus's name, we pray.
-
Amen.
-
Amen, you may be seated. Amen, Amen. Amen. So I'm
-
going to give you a background of because y'all know
-
how to do it.
-
I like to.
-
I like to bring it to the forefront and we're
-
going to walk through do the rumma thirty three and
-
twenty five. Now, Chas asked me what was my tighter
-
gonna be? And I was gonna I said, bill for
-
this because I want you to understand that God give
-
you everything you needed. I know we shouting, we dance,
-
but do we believe God give you everything you need
-
to make it? Man, listen, everything you need and he says,
-
so shall your days be? So share your strength be?
-
So watch this hero.
-
You know God worked from the end to the beginning,
-
so that means he gave you strength.
-
Before you start moving.
-
I know y'all trying to figure it out, but I'm
-
gonna break it down for you. He gave you strength
-
for you got here, for I form you before I
-
form the foundations of the Earth. I gave you strength
-
cause I knew how long your days was gonna be.
-
I knew how many days you were gonna be up
-
on this planet. I knew how many days you was
-
gonna have hardship. I knew how many days you were
-
gonna have disappointment. I knew how many days you was
-
gonna wanna throw in the town. So I gave you
-
strength for that day, for ever even got here. I
-
know how many heart aches you was gonna go through.
-
I knew how many people it was gonna disappoint you.
-
I knew how you was gonna wanna give up, fail,
-
get the press, thinking about suicide. But I want you
-
to know that as your days are, so is your strength.
-
So if I had to put a subtit on this message,
-
I will say, when life get done testing a man,
-
when life get done testing a man or a woman.
-
Now in this particular part of dude the room, and
-
this is the way where where where y'all know Moses.
-
Moses is getting ready to die. It's about to be
-
a change of hands. The baton is about to be
-
passed to the next generation. And so what Adam, what what? What?
-
What? What? What? What?
-
What He's doing? What Moses is doing. Modes is giving
-
his last blessings.
-
To the tribes.
-
So he's prophesiding and passing on his blessing because he
-
know his time is coming to an end. So he
-
blessed each tribe with a pacific blessing. But when it
-
comes to the tribal Asia, he gave this blessing and
-
that's what made me think about it. Why wouldn't he
-
give this to any other tribe.
-
This is a pacific blessing for this certain tribe.
-
You got to understand that this guy is a Asia.
-
Is the seventh son, the eighth son of Jacob.
-
They prophesied way back that he was gonna be blessed
-
with great.
-
Mighty things fruitful.
-
But at the same time, this is the tribe that
-
live in the roughness of the mountains and a terrain
-
that you wasn't supposed to survive in. See, sometimes you
-
go through stuff that you don't think you suposed to survive,
-
but you do oh, y'all gonna talk back too many minute,
-
That's all right. Sometimes you face challenges that you think
-
you can't make it through, but you do. Sometimes you
-
go through relationships and you don't put you all and
-
all into it and it don't work out like you
-
think it should have worked out, and it breaks you
-
in pieces, but you make it through. Okay, Okay, I'm
-
just I'm gonna tell you, I gotta roll down. It's
-
come out to bike. I gotta roll down for you.
-
Sometime you can be so committed to something that you
-
forget about everything else and everything else that you done
-
forgot about. It's what you need to be committed to.
-
But you, as a human being, you chose what you
-
wanted to do. So when it don't happen, when she leaves,
-
when he leaves, when you thene did all you could
-
do to get everything straight, and they still close the
-
door in your face. When you just stop getting high,
-
stop going to clubs, stop cousin, stop drinking, stop smoking.
-
Stop everything you know to do. Y'all watched this.
-
Trying to get it right, and it still ain't got right.
-
This was the tribe of asking. They going through roughing, rugged, terrain.
-
That's the reason. He says, your feet. I'm gonna bring
-
it to y'all. He says, you got to have this
-
type of equipment. Yeah, your shoes like iron.
-
Uh huh uh huh.
-
But washing this he talking me. He not talking about
-
the mountains. He talking about life. Y'all thought I was
-
talking about the mountain, didn't you. Okay, okay, come on,
-
come on, come on, okay. So so so watch this.
-
He says, these are the blessings that I passed on
-
to you. Now, like I say, you have to understand
-
that Modes is about to go. Moses had been through
-
a lot of things. Moses have understood and misunderstood the
-
God that he's telling this tribe to trust. Moses did
-
a lot of things like me and you our way.
-
Even though I even though our dad or our mama
-
told us to do it this a way, y'all watch this,
-
we still.
-
Got it done. But we did it the way we
-
wanted to do it.
-
They said, had the dishes washed before I get home.
-
We washed them. We just sain't wrist them. They still
-
sitting in the other seat because we got distracted. They said,
-
you need to do this, and we did that. But
-
we did it on our on time. Moses is passing
-
on some blessings. Try to convince these tribes to trust
-
in the god that broke him. Even though I didn't
-
do all things right, he still blessed me over thur
-
the price though. Now y'all know the story of Moses, right,
-
y'all know? Okay, So so he trying to tell these people. Man, look,
-
trust this dude. Man, if you won't eat the good
-
of the land, trust to God.
-
So watch this.
-
Ashton is the eighth son of Jacob and Leo, one
-
of his maiden servants, and his name actually means happy, blessed, abundantly, prosperity.
-
This is what his name mean.
-
That sound good, home, Yeah, I would like to have
-
a name like that, because see, back in these biblical days,
-
your name really meant something. Your name carried something. Your
-
name meant who you were, and that's how people approached
-
you according to what your standards was because of your name.
-
But watch this, se he was a bad boy like
-
we was.
-
He did he did something that was he helped his
-
brothers send his other brother into slavery. Oh, y'all thought
-
since his name was all that, he was a good guy.
-
And now he had problems. He had problems. Y'all stay
-
with him. I'm gonna get y'all in a minute. I'm frona,
-
wake y'all up. I'm frona wake up. So so so
-
watch this ask the wether. Good guy, but he was
-
also a guy who had flaws. He was to be blessed.
-
Out of all the tribes, he was the tribe that
-
produced the They Terran was a northern Terran where they
-
get the olive aill from the blessed all. The man
-
that sold his brother into slavery became the man who produces.
-
The blessed all.
-
Your man who had faults, the man who lied to
-
his dad and said, we don't know where yet he
-
was over that. Now we sold him, but we ain't
-
gonna tell you that became the man who produced the
-
oil and the jewelry that you see. The priest were
-
in their garments just till till terrain that God blessed
-
him with even though he did what he did. So
-
watch this.
-
I'm gonna i'ma'a I'm gonna get I'm gonna get.
-
To you when when life get through testing the man,
-
Oh woman, now I want you to understand your name
-
is joy and happiness and abundance and prosperity. But life
-
will test that. Not only will people test you, life
-
will test you. Life will test every part of you. Okay,
-
Life will test.
-
Your faith.
-
Now, I know everything looked good on the outside, but
-
life having a way of testing your faith. What can't
-
nobody see it on the inside. So, in other words,
-
we all got faith until the numbers change.
-
Y'all ain't gonna talk back to me. Y'all too quiet,
-
y'all ain't shouted too much.
-
That's good. I want you to understand all. I want
-
you to take this home with you. I'm glad y'all
-
still in listening. Life will test every part of you.
-
Your faith. What is your faith?
-
You say you believe?
-
So watch this right here. Life will throw something to
-
kick your faith. Go in.
-
How do you sustain?
-
And you praying every night? You done war at your
-
secret clothing, your prayers, faith, and things still don't look
-
like you think theans a look.
-
But you believe in what you're doing. But the numbers
-
is not add them.
-
When the bills is paling up, when the kids is
-
running out, when the friends are back stabbing you.
-
Oh, y'all ain't gonna talk back to me. Y'all, ain't
-
gonna talk about everybody.
-
Who said I am with you? It is stabbed in you.
-
Every handshake got a knife. Feel it out, y'all. Ain't
-
nobody gonna talk back to me. Y'all see what I'm saying.
-
But I got faith that it's gonna be alright. Watch
-
the shio just cause you do me like that. I
-
ain't gonna do you like that cause I ain't that
-
type of person. This that and that on well, well,
-
well in reality, I fight back. Every saint got his
-
breaking point off all you people that's too to guard.
-
You won't say it out loud, but you will say
-
it in your head because you wanted to look good. Yeah,
-
they did me like that. Girl. You see what I did,
-
So you're gonna have to test my girl. Yeah, walk away,
-
stop lying. See you want up to see the part
-
that you want us to see. You don't want up
-
to see the part in your head because watch the
-
sruver That is a faith walk in your head when
-
they say something to you and you trying to keep
-
hainking from coming out, and you got.
-
I'm just saying.
-
I'm just saying, because he watched up life gona test
-
every part of you. That's the reason, he tells Ashner.
-
As your daze be, so shall your strength be. God,
-
you were gonna go through all of this before you
-
start moving. So he gave you strength for every struggle,
-
for every struggle.
-
But watch what we do, Watch what we do? Will
-
we do?
-
We give the strength to the struggle, and not to
-
the one that struggling.
-
God gave you.
-
Strength to the struggle, not the strength to the struggle.
-
So you let it break you down. You trying to
-
carry something you ain't supposed to be carrying. You trying
-
to fix something that you didn't break. You trying to
-
put back to something together that you ain't got no
-
instructions on how to do it.
-
Oh, y'all ain't gonna talk back to me. So watch
-
this like on test if part your mind.
-
Ah, this is a blessing tribe.
-
I want y'all to hear that. There's no other tribe, y'all.
-
Look it up. From dude Roman to thirty two. The
-
one two thirty three mobiles is passing on the blessing
-
to the twelve tribes. No other tribe got this, this
-
particular is a particular blessing for a particular generation. Wow.
-
So there'll come sometimes when you have to do what
-
you got to do, when your faith war it's going
-
on so severe in your head that you can't hear,
-
you can't see straight, you can't think rational.
-
But you have to remember, on this day, I had
-
strength for this day, strength for this day. Watch this,
-
Watch this, because he already give it to me. And
-
watch this. It didn't sneak up on him. It made
-
a snuck.
-
Up on me because I didn't know you were gonna
-
turn your back on me. I didn't know you were
-
gonna stab me in my back. I thought when you
-
said forever, mint, forever, I don't I didn't know that
-
forever till you meant till you got tired, or to
-
him like yes, got in your weight.
-
I didn't know that.
-
When forever ended with you. See that surprised me, but
-
it didn't surprise him. You know why because you already
-
gave me strets for this. So I need to pay
-
more attention to the strength.
-
Than I do to you so I can win the
-
faith water today. Uh huh.
-
Your heart, Life's gonna test your heart because of who
-
you are keeping things together when everything is going wrong?
-
How you do that? Man?
-
Listen, Man, listen, I don't care what you say, yeah,
-
because see.
-
And I'm gonna tie all this into you because.
-
When I'm gonna show you the reason God give it
-
to Moses to get it to the tribe like that.
-
There is a pacific reason why God do what he do.
-
We have a tendency of putting everything, you know, I
-
want to think Jesus Christ, the head of my household,
-
my Lord and save you, was the head of my life.
-
Above Jesus Christ.
-
You put all your circumstances or y'all are gonna get real.
-
You put all your situation, You put all your bad
-
things above him watching here. You know how I know
-
because when you talk to somebody said, arm just going
-
through them, But.
-
You going through what you're going through?
-
What?
-
God? You know, the devil been? He been?
-
What when even your heart that you know how to
-
be going right? I didn't give all I could give
-
and it still ain't working. I didn't humble myself to
-
the point of where I'm almost afloat mat for you
-
can walk on me now, and it still ain't working.
-
God said, avenge this mine. So I sit on my
-
hands to when I get up, they still back there,
-
and you still treat me wrong. I dodnet, done everything
-
I could do not to go out on you. But
-
now my heart is breaking. My heart is upset because
-
I don't feel like you love me like you say
-
you love me, and you don't care about me like
-
you say you care about me. I done done everything
-
I could do, and you still treat.
-
Me like a nobody. There.
-
I didn't humble myself all I can go if I
-
go any more, watch this now, I'm not.
-
A humble person. I'm a fool for you.
-
Because I let you do and say whatever you want
-
to say to me, and I just accepted and keep going.
-
Why because I'm trying to stay right with God.
-
I let you mostly and physic I mean mostly mentally
-
abuse me, and I ain't got to the point I
-
can't take no more. Oh y'all, ain't gonna talk back
-
to me. Life gonna test every part of a man,
-
even your hands.
-
Gonna watch this as bad as I want it, No,
-
I can't do it.
-
All right now?
-
You gonna put your hands in your pocket. You you
-
had your hands in your pocket so long. I ain't
-
got stuck in your pocket. Now somebody else got to
-
dress you. You can't even trust yourself to take your
-
hands out your pocket. I'm I'm just saying, but I'm
-
built for this. He gave me strength. But when life tests,
-
I got to remember I'm built for this. I'm built
-
for this. Say what you want to say.
-
I'm bill for this. You treat me how you want
-
to treat me. I'm bill for this. Go watch this here.
-
It's not for me.
-
To give my strength to that, he said. My feet
-
my strength, not choice. I got to stand.
-
In my lane.
-
I can't get out of my lane because you. It
-
hurt me, It disappointed me. I done went to the
-
ear a million times in one week, getting the knives
-
out of my back.
-
But I'm a survive it. Ah, y'all, y'all ain't gonna
-
talk back to him. I'll make it.
-
Wow. Almost had to leave my.
-
My eyes, my eyepod whatever you call them, thing for
-
your ears.
-
I almost had to leave me my ear because I
-
can't stand you and talk to me because every time
-
you talk to me, you disgrace me. And all I
-
had have done it paid all the meal, m bout,
-
all the groceries gave you whatever you want, and all
-
you do.
-
Is talk.
-
Crazy to me, And I thought you love what you're
-
come to say.
-
It's good when we in public, but when we get home,
-
it's like you don't know me. If I don't say
-
yeah when you want to hear it, then I ain't
-
gonna say that word when in church, when church, I
-
ain't gonna say that word. I ain't gonna say that
-
word when church, when church, when church, don't push me,
-

-
Don't don't push me. Now, Okay, I won't say it.
-
I won't say it. I won't say it.
-
So watcht as the It's the tribe in which.
-
They have some responsibility to conquer and manage what art
-
that's giving them to manage. But they are kind of
-
like us. They are chosen generation like we are. They
-
do kind of stuff like what we do. Because what
-
they task were They had one pacific task, and that
-
was get rid of the Canaanites.
-
They didn't what they did, they mingled with them.
-
They had one pacific thing, possess what's yours?
-
They battle.
-
Wait, it says, so shall your days be, so shall
-
your strength be? They had one specific task, take him out.
-
And for y'all who really don't understand, Yes, we serve
-
a gracious and loving and forgiving God, but when he
-
gives you an assignment.
-
Take it out, take it out. Oh y'all, ain't.
-
Gonna what he says, stop fooling with him. It's best
-
you leave alone. When he say let it go, it's
-
best you let it go. When he said walk away,
-
make show this show last time. You stand before that,
-
it's best you make show that show last time.
-
Now watch us here now.
-
Just because you walk away from it, that don't mean
-
it won't come to you.
-
You just remember your last commandment. Oh y'all ain't gonna
-
talk back. Too many of them mane.
-
They had one a saement, get rid of the Canaanites.
-
They fought, they laugh, they giggled. They fought that they laugh,
-
they giggled, And the Canaanites say, we ain't going for it.
-
Y'all. Eave got to get with us or we gonna
-
keep doing this. So now you tired. Now you're tired.
-
You study punching, punching, punching, they study punching back. Now
-
I'm tired of fighting. Okay, we just gonna get let's
-
let's call the truths. God didn't say called the troops,
-
He said, get rid of it. But now you are out,
-
you tired, So man, can we all.
-
Just get along. I'm just trying to tell y'all about
-
these people. I ain't got to the good.
-
Part yet, but I want you to understand I'm leading
-
the groundwork for us, not just for you, for us,
-
because life will test every part. But know that you
-
are built for this. He gave you what it took
-
for you. Ever got to be twenty eight years old.
-
All y'all ain't gonna talk back to me. Before you forgot,
-
before you became sixty three years old, he already gave
-
you the strength to make it down. Out of everything
-
you that went through from slavery to seventeen years old
-
ninety two years old, he gave you strength to make
-
it no matter what was going on. Because we all
-
had grandparents that went through the slavery. You understand I'm
-
talking about they made it. He give you strength.
-
Let me take y'all back.
-
Remember when she because she was talking about when they
-
were in the widow that it got Manta from heaven.
-
You remember when God used to give him, Manta, ain't
-
God you tell him, if you got four people in
-
this household, take enough of them four people.
-
If it's just you by yourself, you just take what
-
you need.
-
Watching here, I'm not gonna give you an abundance of it,
-
so you can mess it off.
-
I'm gonna give you what you need.
-
For that pacific situation, no more, no less.
-
Watch this here, because I know what you need. See
-
you home and you put some of this on my plate.
-
Put some of that, but your eyes is bigger than
-
your stomach. Put some and then you eat. Now you.
-
I'm through with that. Now you're throwing away a whole
-
bunch hours. God say, don't take no more than what
-
you need. Oh y'all ain't gonna talk back to me.
-
So watch this, he says.
-
I give you strength to number of your days for
-
every situation that you go through. Already calculated how much
-
strength this right here, this is on this only gonna
-
take about twelve ounces. So I'm gonna give you a
-
twelve ounce tomorrow or that's a biffe. Now that's the
-
big you might not be able handed. I better give
-
you thirty two ounces. Yep, they go, they go, they go, Yeah, yeah,
-
they go out.
-
Oh no, this is right here. Man.
-
You need you might need five gallum. It's gonna take
-
a lot right here. Because watch this, y'all.
-
Think I'm joking.
-
Core lessons in this text daily provision and strength. God's
-
gil custom my significant endoings for every trial we face.
-
He will never.
-
Paw more on you. Watch this man, not even his grace.
-
Just when he says grace you need every day. He
-
gonna give you grace every day because you know every
-
day it's gonna be something different that you need grace for. See,
-
he could give you grace for the rest of your days.
-
Now he gave you strength for the rest of your days,
-
but he renewed your grace every day. He's supply what
-
you need as you need it. Because watch this here,
-
and I'm gonna break this down to your man. Watch
-
this now. A lot of us see that at make
-
a million Jack Fox billion dollars two point three billion,
-
nine hundred something million, And yeah, we would like to
-
have that money.
-
If you get it, can you manage it? Are you ready?
-
I'm just saying, man, are you ready to have five
-
million dollars?
-
At least we got one. But I'm just saying watch
-
the sir.
-
Maybe the reason God won't give you five million cause
-
you struggling managing fifty. So he gonna give you five million,
-
fifty dollars the time, just what you need about that day,
-
because if I get it out to you, now we
-
got another story in the Bible about another prodigal son.
-
Now they got the right rewrite the whole Bible cause
-
of you. Maybe the reading God stopped it from back
-
in the day. Well man could have as many wives
-
as he wanted to, just one wive today, because you
-
can't even manage that war, So why would I give
-
you five you can't even manage the one. I'm just saying, though,
-
he gonna give it to you at the portion that
-
you need.
-
Watch this here.
-
He not gonna let you make a four out of him.
-
Even when he was given man on, he told him
-
just take the part you need.
-
And watch this, sir.
-
And if you got greeted, he would make sure that
-
this spot in that state, oh.
-
All that you tried to sweep.
-
Up out of the rug, and say, just in case,
-
now he made that go away, y'all. I'm in the Bible,
-
y'all looking at me like I ain't in the Bible.
-
I'm just in the Bible like this, but I'm in
-
the Bible. See, this is what happens when.
-
You don't do what he said.
-
So your heart is broken because life is testing you now,
-
because life knows who you are, what you are, and
-
what you have before you do. So now we didn't
-
have this faith war, we didn't have this heart transplant.
-
Now we're going to the mind.
-
When you have it, start having the meetings in your head.
-
Anybody ever has some measings in their head. Nobody had
-
the meetings in their head to well, hey man, you
-
know what I'm saying, huh, or everybody have them deem
-
ones have meetings in your mind and your spirit beating
-
in your chest and you're trying to figure out.
-
Because you know grace and mercy still exists.
-
So well, you say, he know my heart, I'm not
-
he not he not, He not looking for perfection.
-
He's just looking for maturity. And I'm still learning.
-
And the demons having a meeting in your head and
-
the spirit is beating in your chest and I'm still learning.
-
I'm just telling you about when life tests every part of.
-
A man life. Don't carel because you are a believer
-
life crucified Jesus.
-
You thought it was the people. Know, Jesus interrupted they lifestyle.
-
Jesus come to show them what you're doing is wrong.
-
How you live in that ain't right. See, if Jesus
-
would have came and wouldn't try to change they culture,
-
they lifestyle, they would have never crucified him. They crucified
-
him because of the life that he was trying to
-
get somebody to see and do and be calm. So
-
in your mind you know what's right. In your heart,
-
you know which way to go. But sometime you let
-
the mind win. And when you let the mind win,
-
everything suffers, grace and mercy exists.
-
God told them to conquer, take them out.
-
They knew in they mind, in their heart what they
-
were supposed to do. But what they did was they
-
let they heart override their mind.
-
So they compromise and said, we can just stay here together.
-
They knew in they mind what they were supposed to do.
-
In their heart, they got a little soft because they
-
couldn't continue to bud So in my mind, I know
-
what I'm supposed to do. In my mind, I'm supposed
-
to take you out, bro, But in my heart, my
-
heart won't let me do it, so we just gonna
-
shake on it.
-
Man.
-
You know how, how do you ever watched them movies
-
were they were supposed to kill somebody and they don't
-
kill them, and then the ages that sent them to
-
kill them and they didn't kill that person out an
-
age of.
-
Trying to send somebody to kill them. Yeah, cause your
-
heart that got sopped. This is what you do. You're
-
supposed to be out right down the minute you stop down.
-
This is what you do. So when you don't do.
-
What you're supposed to do, now it's on us to
-
do what we got to do. Why because we can't
-
trust you no more? You didne got When you have
-
those type of meetings in your in your mind and
-
in your heart, you know how you can say I
-
ain't gonna do that no more, I ain't, I ain't
-
on the next time they ain't. And then three four
-
weeks later, after you done thought about it, you then
-
sat down and you then told everybody who you could
-
tell about it, and they didn't got you the cod
-
sign everything you wanted co sign. And then when that
-
person show back up and you said okay, you said okay.
-
Then when all them people you talked today said well
-
I thought you said, yeah, Well you know.
-
I now you Okay, okay, okay, so watch this.
-
But the number one thing that you can't do, and
-
the core lessons of this, you have to understand that
-
your David Grace God promise he will provide matching daily
-
strength for whatever pacific trials or tasks each twenty four
-
hours will bring you. That might be some days that
-
you don't have no problems nowhere. Is might be a
-
day that you might just have one. And that's probably
-
gonna be the day that when you go to the
-
grocery store and then you go home and stay at home,
-
don't come back out no more. You know what I'm saying,
-
That's the day you just have one because you ain't
-
around nobody.
-
But in the midst of going through everything you go through.
-
And doing everything that God has called you to do,
-
this is the one thing I want you to understand.
-
What we must not do we can't afford to. I
-
deal with this on a regular basis. I got like
-
twelve people work under me, and I don't know if
-
any of them say, I'm not gonna say they not not.
-
Gonna say they is. I'm gonna say I don't know.
-
Because I'm not with them, and I'll be wrong to
-
put my measuring stick against somebody else.
-
So I deal with this on a regular basis.
-
But what I don't do is I don't allow them
-
to get me out of character.
-
Uh oh uh oh.
-
See, your character means more than your strength. Your character
-
means more than your willingness. And still your character means
-
more than your ability to see past them.
-
People wow. Because we was made in his image and
-
his likeness? What is his likeness?
-
His character? What is his image? What is it that
-
we are trying to accomplish with Jesus?
-
We know not what we but we do know when
-
he we shall be. Your character.
-
Explains who you are to the core, because with your
-
character in his image, when your character it's pushed, when
-
your character is tested, when your character is don display
-
what's up in you don't come out. You can't let
-
them stab you in the back. And then you say
-
it's alright, and then somebody and you say it's all right,
-
and then that field person come along and you say
-
I ain't gonna take it no more, and you go
-
to stab ing back just because you passed the first
-
three tests and let them make it and the fourth one.
-
You gotta d mail us. You got a plus on Russ.
-
But the fourth test come you flirted it. Watch this,
-
So was you putting on a show the.
-
First three times?
-
Or was you doing it because somebody else was? Where
-
was that same character the fourth time to come back.
-
What we can't allow, ladies and gentlemen, sisters and brother
-
is to let I character get out of place.
-
It says Joe got double for his trouble.
-
No, when you read it, it says God bless him
-
because he retained his integrity because he told him in
-
the beginning you can do whatever you can want.
-
To do to Joe.
-
Joe is a man that's upright, shun evil. You can't
-
get him to do nothing wrong. And everything that he
-
went through God says, he's still didn't do nothing wrong.
-
He retained his what I put in him, that's what
-
come out of him with life test every part of
-
a man.
-
So watch this, ladies and gentlemen. I want you to
-
understand who you are, who you are and become what
-
God said you was and stop giving.
-
Strength your strength away. God says, so since you, if
-
you don't mind.
-
Out of all the problems you go through with your
-
health and everything else you keep coming back. He gave
-
you stress to make it regardless of what's coming against you.
-
He gave you strength to make it. All you got
-
to do is focus on the skin and not to action.
-
Focus on the strength and not the action. Focus on
-
the strength, not the person. Focus on the strength, not
-
the situation. Whatever you're going.
-
Through in life, God said, I ain't giving you strength
-
before a number your days.
-
That's what this verse is about. Stunning firm to your
-
very last damn.
-
Because when your last day come and your number is pulled,
-
strength don't matter no more.
-
But until that day, your.
-
Feet should be like iron, like I your shoes brass.
-
Uh huh. For every day you go through, I gave
-
you strength. So stop.
-
Allowing your strength to be tooken a captive by your circumstances.
-
You are built for this. Amen. Amen, come on, let's
-
stand on our feet and your God pray for the word.
-
Holly Loujah. Come on, let's clap your
