Stoned | NYE | Pastor Scott Thomas

in the military in the military the the

highest rank in the military

is the G the General's wife the

General's wife is a guy but but but yes

when it comes to the Stars yeah the

general the general holds the highest

rank in the military and and and the

lowest rank in the military is private

is a private yeah yeah like new en listy

like I'm here to serve my country love

that love that

the general has this all-encompassing

Authority and power whatever the general

wants the general gets the general

doesn't have to open a door because

there's people waiting to open a door

for him he gets to a vehicle the door is

open he sits down someone drives him

whatever he wants boom he just makes

mention done get so and so on the phone

they're there like like it's all of that

is is whatever he wants because man

there's there's power there's Authority

behind his voice the private he just

glad to be here she just glad to be

serving just I I'm just here and and and

and whatever it takes it the grunt work

like all of that just just everything no

no real Authority just they're just

doing what they're told to do just kind

of hanging out so what at what point let

me ask you listen at what point does the

private have just as much Authority in

the military as the

general when does the private newly

enlisted all of a sudden they are right

there I have the same Authority as the

general when is

that that happens when the general calls

the private in and says I have a task

for

you I want you to fly across the nation

I want you to meet with so and so I want

you to give them this message on this

day I want you to go here do this and

then they're going to bring you back and

you'll report to me everything that just

happened the moment that private walks

out of that General's

office doors

open why this private's walking never

had doors open for him before walking

out they got a car waiting on it Hey How

You Like Me Now Wheezy like he got all

that going on like flying across the

nation first class I'm loving this gets

there and doors are opening walks into

meet with other high ranking officers

that they've never even dreamed of

seeing or talking to before ever and and

the high ranking officers there all of a

sudden are interested in what I have to

say it's it's it's a I've never been

here but I'm just a private what makes

that private presence and voice so

powerful that it actually matches the

general is because he's walking with the

General's Authority on him right that

private was sent on a mission because

the general had commissioned him or her

right and now they're carrying out the

mission they're carrying out this is

what I was told to do I was told to go

here say this do this and as long as

they're doing and saying what the

general said they have doors open

they're walking into places they don't

belong into places they never thought

they would ever dream meeting with

people they never thought possible they

are

outranked but the people that they're

talking to don't have the same Authority

that they do I want you to know in

2025 God has plans to put a mission on

your life that's going to take you

places you don't deserve to be in yes

sir he's going to he's going to speak

some things over your life and put an

authority on your life that this year

you walk into places that outrank you

that you step into Arenas that you could

not work a thousand years and get to

that place God is going to favor and

open doors for you as long as you walk

with his authority and his mission

stating what he States doing what he

said to do there'll be an authority that

will open doors for you take you places

that you never could get on your own put

you in front of people that you never

would have seen and then watch the

mission take place exactly how he desire

for your life is anybody ready for a

supernatural year of favor and blessing

over your life me too me too and that's

why it's important that we're here

tonight talking this through because

it's critical that you and I understand

God's hand on our life does something

different for us his authority gives us

momentum his authority give me direction

for my life and when that happens I

expect doors to open when that happens I

should have favor on my life I'm God's

favorite when I get to the mall there

ought to be a FR well I'm just saying

that there there should be something

real there that I wake up living with an

expectation I've got a hope I've got a

joy it's not that everything is perfect

but I can just see further than the

immediate right now and I know that

better is on the way because of the one

who's resting on my life this is why you

need the God in your

[Music]

life this this reality

of when that private is traveling there

is a confidence on that private that

they don't typically live with because

now he's not living or traveling under

his or her Authority but one

greater as Christ followers ladies and

gentlemen we need to take on

2025 realizing that there's something

different on your life you're not here

to fit in you're not here just to suck

air and just do what you've always done

2025 5 is not to be a repeat of

2024 there should be something that

moves you further than you've ever gone

and have people scratch their head

asking how did you get here because of

God's hand on your life and when you

know that God is with you it gives you a

confidence on the inside that we like to

call a

godfidence makes you live Different

Makes You Walk different when you know

that God's hands in your life you pray

different Lord thank

you you just you just just something

different you walk into the workplace on

Monday morning this is the day the Lord

has made don't do that that's weird but

I'm just saying like like like you just

walk different when when when you know

that he's on your side this this

confidence is key to your advance and I

want to talk about that tonight your

advance and some things that you and

I've have got to get a hold of and

realize that we have to see and

understand what God's doing in our life

to move it forward Joshua 4: 8-9 I want

you to read all it with me all of it

loud and proud final day last day of the

entire year we'll never have this day

back in 2024 it's gone 2 24 is leaving

in just a couple of hours this is your

last chance to read the scripture

publicly together out loud read it

together here we go 1 2 3 the Israelites

did just as Joshua commanded they picked

up 12 Stones according to the number of

the Israelite tribes from the middle of

the Jordan as the Lord had instructed

Joshua They carried them over with them

to the camp and put them there Joshua

also set up 12 Stones in the middle of

the the Jordan in the very place where

the priest carrying the Ark of the

Covenant stood they remain there to this

very day it's a crazy

story crazy story

Israel as a nation had been locked up in

Egypt in bondage for 400 plus

years and by an act of God and 10

plagues that God released they're out

they come through the Red Sea

and it should have been an 11-day

Journey from coming out of Egypt to

reaching the promised land but because

they did not trust God and disobeyed God

it turned into a 40y year

delay does anybody in the room have time

for a 40y year Wrong

Turn let me help you I'm going to tell

you something thing you ain't Nobody Got

Time For That Ain't nobody got time for

that they no you don't you you you don't

have time to to make a four Monon

mistake right you don't have time to

make a four week mistake are you kidding

me time is moving baby time is moving

opportunities are here and then they're

gone you can't you can't we've got to be

so in tune with what's going on God

what's your plan for my life let's go

that's why we're here on the weekends

leaning in and going after who he is cuz

I don't want to miss a moment of the

favor and the opportunity and the

blessing God has laid out for me and if

you skip yours I'm taking mine and yours

too Israel made this this delay 40 years

and in the story Moses is gone now

Joshua is on the scene leading Israel

and what they've done is they've come

through the Wilderness and now they're

standing at the Jordan River right the

Jordan River in the Bible is is known

it's a place that's synonymous with

death like not like a place you want to

Vacation it's it's a it's a place of

death things die here it's the banks

many time

overflow and when the banks overflow it

will wash little towns or Villages away

away that are built too close to it in

addition to that if if you're living far

enough away when the banks overflow the

animals that usually live close to it

they are driven off the banks and many

times go into the villages and many

people were attacked by animals that

were usually living close to the water

but now they were driven away and they

driven into populated areas it was it

was dangerous when the Jordan went crazy

and nobody knew what it was going to

happen now here Joshua and all of Israel

is standing on edge God LED them to this

place they the Wilderness is behind them

the promised land is just on the other

side of this River and God says I want

you to go across cross

it and what does God do he splits it

down the middle what

the he split it he split it in fact the

Bible says that the priests grab the Ark

of the Covenant and they start walking

into the water and the water it got out

of the way and where the headwaters were

flowing This Way South the priest stood

in the Middle with the Ark of the

Covenant almost defying the water that

was trying to flow down stream and it

stood up on a heap and as it stood here

and the priests were standing here

40,000 Warriors from Israel crossed

over the Bible says it's funny says they

went

fast you and I would too hurry oh my God

can you imagine they scooting across

that thing no time for aezy hat like

they get across there and then and then

Joshua the the the the priest walk

across and finish but but but here's

here's what I want you to understand in

this Crossing God said I want you to do

two

things we're going to we're going to

make two

memorials two two memorials are going to

happen outside of this and we just we

just read we just read together that

there was going to be one in the river

and there was going to be one out of the

river two different memorials and they

have two different purposes and it very

much relates with who you are and what's

happening in your 24 and your 25 I need

you to hang with me listen to me we're

going to declare some things it's going

to change stuff the first Memorial

that's going to happen God said I want

you to put I want you to stack rocks in

the middle of the

Jordan what cuz no one's ever stood here

before nobody people have died trying to

go across this you are standing on on

dry ground in it I want you to build a

memorial to me of how

together you and I defied it

all things that others never made it

through I want you to build a

memorial it says I didn't understand how

it was going to happen and I thought God

had lost his

mind cuz my family they crazy

people I didn't have much of an example

back there with them I started serving

God the best I knew how made a bunch of

mistakes not doing it perfect at all but

God's been so faithful to me and he kept

providing and he kept bringing me

through stuff that I should have lost my

mind in he he kept on doing things that

I didn't understand and he did you know

one time like Mana was falling out of

the sky and he fed all of us didn't see

that one coming and then there was a

time there was this Cloud This Cloud

would go over and hide the Sun from us

and then there then that at night there'

be a pillar of fire to warm us and that

he was been so faithful to us bringing

us through a Wilderness I got to stop

and I got to say thank you for what he

brought us through that I didn't think

we would ever make it

through build a

memorial a memorial in the

middle of a place that should have

killed

me anybody been through something in

24 that you almost pulled a Fred

Sanford this is the big one Elizabeth

y'all don't even know what I'm talking

about that's okay I got here it's like

like like you thought it was over like

I'm not making it out of this when

anybody go through something in March or

April last year where you thought it

might have been how about July or August

anybody hit something September somebody

say my God it's few hours and I'm I'm

still in that situation right now I'm I

understand I got you I'm just telling

you there's some things that you made it

through that you shouldn't have made it

through and the truth is you're not even

sure how you made it through it's not

because you're that good oh you good but

you ain't that good no no no no I know

you're edicated but it's not even your

edication that got you there it's not

your money it's not the people that you

know it's not you're just a strong you

are strong it's not about your strength

God has been on your side in

2024 over your kids over your money over

your

business this this first

stack that they put in the middle of the

Jordan was to celebrate God's

faithfulness He's been Faithful he was

there it it was reminding Israel of

God's activity that the reason that they

are finally where they are is because

God brought him out of an Egypt and

brought him through a Wilderness despite

all their failures and their the bunch

of junk and 40-year delay God was still

faithful even in that to get him to this

point and now they're standing in the

middle of impossible and God said I'm

taking you through stuff that you're not

even going to be able to explain how

this happens because nobody is going to

believe you when you say that you were

standing on dry ground in the middle of

the Jordan that I split it and I made it

get out of your way but because you

walked under my authority and you walked

with my direction I know how to defy the

odds and take you places you never could

have got on your

own what's interesting about this is the

Bible says that they stood

halfway when you get in the middle you

ever been in the middle of

drama let me go to this side I didn't

like that at all you ever been in the

middle of drama

like it's all around you it's

everywhere the word middle or

halfway in the Hebrew is

midnight the word midnight in Hebrew

means middle or

halfway now let me ask you have you ever

been in a midnight

situation when things were dark and you

had no answers

when the sun went down a long time ago

and you don't think it's coming up for a

long time and you're just holding on for

dear life oh y'all dress up way too nice

to act like you got it all together I we

we go through some things and we've been

white knuckling life and just hoping

that it works out we faking it and

faking it and faking it we ain't made it

yet but we faking it and we faking

it that's what that's what a midnight is

a midnight is I'm halfway I'm not where

I used to be I'm not where I wanted to

be I'm stuck right in the middle with

you I'm stuck in the middle of this

whole thing when you've been in the

middle of a struggle when it's dark and

you're alone and you've lost hope and

and and and and you you just you just

want to fight or you want to cry or you

want to hide you want to run you want

you you I I don't even know what to do

when I'm in the middle but I've got some

news for you God does his best work in

the Midnight Hour it's the midnight

where God does things that you and I

can't fully explain it was Exodus 11

that tells us at midnight God's angel

went through Egypt and broke the back of

bondage and released God's people it was

in Acts chapter 16 where we find out

Acts 16 · chapter mention

that Paul and Silas were locked up in

prison and at midnight they begin to

sing songs and praise God and it was in

the Midnight Hour that the jail sales

were broken open it was Acts chap 27

where the Bible says that Paul was

riding on a ship with a bunch of men a

storm hit and they lost all hope but

Paul stood up at midnight and said we're

going to be just fine we're coming

through the other side there's not going

to be anybody lost and they were saved

midnight was when the groom always

showed up to surprise and to take the

bride it was it was at midnight that

Samson woke up and went down to Gaza

where the Philistines were Goliath and

his brothers and ripped the gates to the

their own City out of their out of the

ground and carried them away there was a

power there was a supernatural thing

that came on Samson for that it was

Nicodemus who came to Jesus at night and

he said Jesus what must I do to be saved

what I'm trying to tell you is this God

does some of his best work when you're

only halfway through when you can't see

to the other side and you don't know how

to go back and I'm just hanging out I

feel like I'm stuck in the middle so do

you need something broken off your life

he knows how to do that do you need a

prison door open addiction off of your

life he knows how to do that do you need

some hope in a storm he does his best

work in a Midnight Hour do you need to

just meet Jesus because you're going

through some hell right now he can

handle your hell and he will help you in

a Midnight Hour is anybody glad that

your God neither Slumbers nor sleeps

that he's awake every hour and he can

handle your m night the same way he can

handle the noon

day weeping may endure for the

night but hi Joy is coming in the

morning time that's Bible for you the

good news is this Miracles still happen

at

midnight job wrote in Job chapter 35 God

Job 35 · chapter mention

gives me songs in the night I don't like

my circumstance but I feel your presence

and I know you're here and things kind

of sucketh right now but I know

everything is going to be all right I've

got to Ho it on to you do you do you

realize let me just kind of bring it

down to where we're living do you

realize that you can't even celebrate

2025 until you go through a midnight

tonight yeah that's every night we got

midnights every single night a midnight

comes that that that's what I'm trying

to tell you that that it's the midnight

that defies 2024 to

2025 I I I just I just I'm just

challenging you don't get stuck on this

side of the Jordan wondering what the

promise is like you got to get out there

where he said to go and stand in the

middle of what he said to do his

authority his plan his direction for you

he didn't lie he knows what he's doing

and everything's going to be all right

would you turn to somebody and tell him

everything's going to be all right it's

going to be all

right tonight

before we get to it when we hit that

Midnight Hour let's ask God to end some

things yes sir how about you leave some

things in 24 so you step into 25 without

the baggage would that be all right if

something just broke and rolled off of

your life would it be okay if God

started some new stuff in your life like

I just I just feel a hope I feel a joy

that's good baby cuz you ain't always

felt hope and you've not always felt

that Joy you need to have a hope you

need to have a holy hype going on inside

of you to take this year on let's ask

God to provide some stuff that you are

missing right now because he knows how

to take care of his own he's just

looking for somebody who's in the middle

of a midnight hour to call on his name

so he can show up and do the miraculous

in their life Scott do you really

believe in miracles

baby I'm a living

Miracle oh oh oh don't get it twisted

you're SI sitting beside one right

now yeah don't you don't think you got

where you are because you're that good

do you no you are a miracle right God

has been good to us so if you're walking

through a midnight

situation you got to begin to look

for the

stones

mhm I I need to look back and remember

when he took me through that thing

cuz if you're not careful you will

forget about that and that's why he said

I need you to make a

memorial something that oh when when

when The Tide is High and it's rushing

you you might not be able to see it but

when things calm back down and you see a

few of these Stones sticking up just

above the surface and you walk by going

oh I remember that right there I

remember how he brought me through I

remember how God was faithful to me in

that situation we it's easy to forget

how you know we forget really quick y we

forget really quick stuff that he

brought us through but you know who

hasn't forgot the person you were crying

to all all year long y you need might

need to go ask a friend can you please

remind me what it was that I was fussing

to you about that God provided and

opened a door and made a way that I've

done forgotten about because you might

need to be reminded yourself as to what

God has done in your life because I

promise you he's been better to you than

you've been to yourself God has provided

and made way God said I want you to

build a I want you to build a mod

Monument to my faithfulness in your life

and then he said and the second

stack the second Monument I want you to

take 12 Stones and I want you to build

that Monument

outside of where you live in the middle

of your

Camp we're going to have two

monuments one is in the

Jordan and one is in your

camp that one is to remind you of my

faithfulness in your midnight hours how

I brought you through some things this

one is to awaken your trust and your

commitment and your dedication to me

that when you see those stones you're

reminded of those stones I wouldn't have

these if I hadn't to handled those but

because he was good there I'm reminded

of who I am here you see that is what

God did this reminds you of who you are

would you turn to someone tell them I'm

a Christ follower I'm a Christ follower

I'm a that that's that's who I am that

that's what I do I I follow him I

emulate him I worship him my heart my

mind my focus is on him that's that's

where I am it's important to remember

it's important to look and think back

because there's something about

remembering that refuels your life being

reminded as to where you should be as

opposed to where you

are being reminded of what God did not

what you did but what God did to bring

you to this place it's critical that we

are reminded because we forget the mess

that Jesus found us in so what we have

to do in order to be reminded is we have

to look backward so we can see

forward you got to look backward in this

case I look backward to see his

faithfulness his goodness how he

provided he brought he he brought me

through stuff I don't even know how I'm

here in my right mind but here I am

because God has been good and based on

that it refires me to take big steps

forward you see here's what happens this

step right here it is it's a place of

Thanksgiving and that praise that comes

out because of how good God has been and

everybody under the sound of my voice

has a reason to praise God yes sir but

because I've got praise and just I'm

grateful I'm just thankful I couldn't do

anything to earn this thank you when I

have praise do you know what comes with

praise

peace as when when I'm when my focus is

him my heart is at rest because I'm

reminded if he did that then he can do

it again everything is going to be fine

that is praise and peace this right here

this Memorial that I have this one

builds something inside of me that is

different this is this something is that

that pushes me and what it does is it

builds a

hope inside of

me and it gives me my try

back your try

M it's the thing that makes you

different what did you stop

trying what did you quit on in

2024 what are you quoting scriptures

over and spiritualizing it so you no

longer have to do it what are you

blaming on unanswered prayer and you

stop believing God for

right you can't lose your try your try

is why you're sucking air your try is

why God's hand is on your life your try

is to violate the impossible and go into

places that nobody can understand but

but God God's been good to me and God

helped me you've got to keep your try

your try is your dream your try is that

Focus it's that internal scream that I

was made for more than where I'm living

right now I've got to get my try back

ladies and gentlemen I don't care if

you're 16 if you're 36 if you're 56 if

you're 86 never lose your try there's

still something inside of you God's not

done with your life and that's why 25 is

so important don't you stop living in 24

and try to sleep through 25 God's plan

is too great and too amazing for your

life and he's done too much in your past

to cancel him out in your future I look

back and remember and this opens my

heart and I recommit I'm all in as for

me and my house we will serve the Lord

It's a fresh commit commitment we take

steps towards him whenever whenever that

opens up when you you look backward so

you can look forward hope comes alive on

the inside of you again gratitude comes

alive on the inside again trust comes

along you know what trust does trust

takes the drama out of your life because

trust all of a sudden my emotions are at

ease I ain't running around screaming

and yelling and doing all kinds of stuff

on social media no I'm

good he makes life easy easier when I

can see where he's been now I've got

hope I've got gratitude I realize

there's something in my life that can

bless somebody else I stopped living

just for

me now I'm concerned about you that's

where you are matters how can I help

there's nothing like living Fully Alive

and what is it that brings me Fully

Alive remembering what he did then and

understanding what I can do now when

those come together that changes

everything folks

don't you forget how he brought you

through

2020

2023

2024 all that stuff ladies and gentlemen

that matters that matters yes sir the

only reason you can even look at a 25 is

because he has been faithful to you

through all that so these Stones they

repped two things and I'm done with this

they repped two things number one God's

faithfulness his ability to help and

lead and guide you through and the other

set were my commitment I need to be

reminded that my heart belongs to him

and I want to move forward in

25 even greater than I did in

24 this is actually like real

deal my uh my license tag registration

sticker

at midnight tonight my truck is illegal

to be on the

road so if you're driving by and you see

your boy pulled over just honk your horn

and wave all right just see you

Sunday my truck has a sticker on it

right now that says

1224 but it expires at

midnight it's over

what I did before got me through 24 but

it was going to take something different

to get me into

25 it's not the same it's good I need to

take another step I had to contact

register pay the fee and then they

finally sent me a sticker but how you

know this thing does me no good it does

me no good if I keep it in my glove

box just because I have it doesn't mean

I'm legal no I need to post it where it

can be seen and visible that people are

not confused especially the police which

I love especially that when they see

this they go oh I see you I see you you

ready for this next year ladies and

gentlemen the faith that you have now

got you through

24 the commitment level to Christ that

you have now was good for the past 12

months but it's time to up our game yes

sir because you're not looking for

another 24 you're looking to step things

up and move higher in the

25 and what I'm telling you right now is

25 is going to be above your pay grade

but God's Authority is going to be on

your life and his mission is going to be

on you and he's going to send you places

that you have no way of doing without

him but if you and I will prepare our

hearts and find a fresh level of

commitment based on how good you were

there I can commit to you in my life I

got the two stacks of my life I will

remember what you did and I will

recommit my life to you every day of my

life when I see this I'm reminded of

that because you were did it then I can

stand and I can trust you right now and

ladies and gentlemen when you put those

together hell cannot handle you you will

become bigger than the situations the

obstacles the opposition the things

trying to pull down your family shut

down your career destroy your mind steal

your peace all of that comes to us

screeching go can I tell you we read

tonight out of Joshua chap 4 where God

took them through the the the the Jordan

River can I tell you in Joshua 5 verse1

the very first verse of the next chapter

the Bible says all of Israel's enemies

saw what God did for Israel and their

hearts melted inside of them when here's

what I'm trying to tell you when you

have memorials built for how good God

has been when you show up to work on

Monday morning and folks know your story

not not the one I mean I mean the real

you the real you when you've talked to

some real people you are a walking

breathing living miracle that people

cannot understand why you haven't

checked out quit canceled shut down

walked away by this time but you're

still here it's obvious that something

greater is operating inside of you it is

a memorial every time Israel's enemies

passed by the Jordan River and they saw

rocks standing up inside the river it

was a reminder to every one of the

enemies their God is greater than

anything you can throw at them they're

going to be fine they walked through the

impossible they stood in the middle and

they defied death and their God brought

them through ladies and gentlemen

there's nothing like knowing that if God

be for you who can be against you if God

is on my side everything is going to be

all right I don't understand it all I

don't like it all and I wasn't crazy

about walking through the death traps

that I had to go through in 22 23 24 but

God proved faithful every single time I

didn't like what I saw I had I had

situations all around me but as long as

I kept walking and doing what he said I

came through some things that I can't

take credit for I just got to say I

think I'm God's favorite that's all it

can be because God has been good to me I

wonder if there's anybody in the room

tonight that you can say Pastor I am

living proof that God has been good he's

brought me through some Rivers he's

brought me through some impossible I

should have lost it I should have been

done but God has been on my side would

you stand to your feet come on and stand

to your feet I'm

done we're going to pray

[Music]

tonight because I truly truly believe

that what God has planned for you is

bigger than what you've seen or even

contemplated and he wants to place his

authority and his Direction on your

life and send you into some

Arenas that you're going to have to say

what he said and do it do it the way he

said to do it he's going to put you in

places that you're going to try to

figure out what am I doing here I cannot

believe he's opened this door why would

he choose me I'm a PR he should have

chosen somebody else up the line but for

whatever reason by Grace he chose me to

go do that ladies and gentlemen get

ready he is in the business of choosing

the most unlikely to do the most

impossible so that he can get the glory

for it it's what he does let me just ask

you would it be okay if God used your

life like that in 2025 that if God just

opened and took you some places that you

can't even explain to your

family you're doing what you're go what

what they hired

you do do they know that are you

serious there needs to be some heads

scratcher

situations and that's what God's plan is

tonight we're going to

pray and the first part of our prayer is

we're going to think back to what God

has done how faithful he's been if you

have a pulse and you're breathing you're

blessed and you have a reason to say

thank you and we're going to build a

memorial of gratitude tonight God before

I go into 25 I want to stop in 24 and as

I look back I got to say thank you for

how you bless my family how you've kept

me how you not even the stuff I know

especially the stuff I'm not even I

don't have a clue about that you kept me

from I got to say thank you for that

number one and then number two we're

going to build a memorial on the other

side of God here's my life again let's

pray father in this room tonight I'm

praying for all of my friends that are

here as we look back over our life as we

look over the situations that we've

encountered as we look over what you've

done over the past several months we're

going to be honest the past several

years we've got multiple memorials built

to how faithful you have been things

that you moved out of the way that

should have destroyed I can't even

explain why I'm here after that

diagnosis but I'm still here right now I

I can't explain why I'm still here after

what the family went through I can't

explain why I'm still here after after

what happened on the job but God you've

been faithful and you provided we had no

resources but God you somehow made way

and provided and I'm here right now I I

went through it but I came through it

I'm still here God thank you we just we

got to take the next few moments and

just say thank you God I I need you to

thank him on your behalf I I can't thank

him for you but would you just stop and

just honor him and say thank you Lord

for providing thank you for blessing

thank you for healing thank you for

stopping thank you for starting thank

you for raising up thank you for for

taking down thankk you for doors closed

providing thank you for all of it

turned my back but thank

you and God in the same breath I add to

that that I recommit my life to you

tonight that because of how faithful

you've been and how good you've been and

that Grace and that Mercy I give you me

all over again I will not limp my way

into 2025 but I will run I will stand

strong and burst in through the door and

I will take every opportunity you give

God I'm going to live with a trust and a

try I'm going to live with a confidence

in who you are and what you're doing in

my life and I'm going to pray prayers

2025 that this year is going to be full

of opportunity it's going to have favor

excitement that maybe they've not had in

a long time there's a there's a joy
