  1. Good evening. Welcome to Voice in the Wilderness. I'm Don

  2. Noble of Pure Heart Ministries, and I welcome you today

  3. with exceedingly abundantly and overflowing joy. You know, it's really

  4. hard to believe that we are actually in a new year,

  5. but I'm very excited for this year. I believe this

  6. is going to be an extraordinary year for the Body

  7. of Christ. But today, today there's a lot of political news,

  8. and of course more to abound in the days to come.

  9. President elect Donald Trump was officially certified by the US

  10. Congress today, marking the official final steps to guarantee Trump's

  11. position as the incoming commander and chief. The certification was

  12. largely unsuccess or excuse me, the as certification was uneventful,

  13. with Democrats raising no challenges to any of Trump's electoral wins.

  14. And this was around one o'clock Eastern time. So this

  15. was a good day. This is a good day for America,

  16. peaceful transitions, you know, just you know, when you look

  17. back to what occurred on January sixth prior and you

  18. think about today, I mean, this is this is a

  19. good day for the US. And so now fortunately House

  20. Speaker Mike Johnson was also voted in again as Speaker

  21. this past Friday, January third, and it almost looked like

  22. he was going to have major trouble because there were

  23. Republicans who were against him, but fortunately the wild band

  24. gathered together. And I mean that would have had this

  25. not happened, uh, there would have. This would have caused

  26. a delay in getting President like Trump's nominees passed by

  27. the House. So that would have created a lot of

  28. i'd say, disruption, chaos, whatever. It would have not been good.

  29. But somebody corralled all these individuals and got them to

  30. vote him in. So or that I am thankful. The

  31. reason being is we know as Christians, we know this

  32. is I have said this how many times in the

  33. last year. This whole thing is a spiritual battle. We

  34. are battling unseen forces that are determined to keep President

  35. Trump from taking office, keeping President Trump from being successful

  36. in office. So the enemy is just working furiously to

  37. try to disrupt things. And as we approach the twentieth

  38. of January, the inauguration, it's hard to tell what may

  39. happen between now and then. So I'm asking you to

  40. please pray for a peaceful transition of power and that

  41. you would also pray for protection over President elect Trump

  42. and his family and even even those he has chosen

  43. to fill the positions of power. They need prayer too.

  44. Several of them have had threats on their life. Now

  45. we have not seen this in the past. This is

  46. this is just the work of the enemy. Oh, as

  47. you hear me tonight, would you please please pray that

  48. January twentieth and the time, actually the time up to

  49. the twentieth. See, they can cause a lot, they can

  50. read a lot of havoc in the days before the

  51. inauguration to stop the inauguration. That's the whole plan of

  52. the enemy is to stop that inauguration. But we're going

  53. to pray and we're going to believe that the Lord

  54. is going to make a way. Amen. So I want

  55. to read to you from Deuteronomy, chapter twenty eight, and

  56. I just want you to live sen to what this

  57. is the Lord speaking to Moses. And after I read

  58. that to you, I have prepared a blessing that I

  59. have written for you that I want to speak over

  60. you this evening. So just listen to the scripture. First.

  61. This is Deuteronomy. And by the way, I am reading

  62. out of the amplified Classic edition, so it may sound

  63. a little different from your version of the Bible. Starting

  64. with verse one, if you will listen diligently do the

  65. voice of the Lord your God, being watchful to do

  66. all his commandments which I command you. This day, the

  67. Lord your God will set you on high above the

  68. nations of the earth, and all these blessings shall come

  69. upon you and overtake you. If you heed the voice

  70. of the Lord your God. Blessed shall you be in

  71. the city, and blessed shall you be in the field.

  72. Blessed shall be the fruit of your body, And blest

  73. the fruit of your ground, and blest the fruit of

  74. your beasts, the increase of your cattle, and the young

  75. of your flocks. Blessed shall be your basket and your

  76. kneading trough. Blessed shall you be when you come in,

  77. And blessed shall you be when you go out. The

  78. Lord shall cause your enemies who rise up against you

  79. to be defeated before your faith. They shall come out

  80. against you one way and flee before you seven ways.

  81. The Lord shall command the blessing upon you in your

  82. storehouse and in all that you undertake, and he will

  83. bless you in the land which the Lord your God

  84. gives you. The Lord will establish you as a people

  85. wholly to himself, as he has sworn to you. If

  86. you keep the commandments of the Lord your God and

  87. walk in his ways, and all people of the earth

  88. shall see that you are called by the name and

  89. in the presence of the Lord, and they shall be

  90. afraid of you. And the Lord shall make you have

  91. a surplus of prosperity through the fruit of your body,

  92. of your livestock, and of your ground. In the land

  93. which the Lord swore to your fathers to give you.

  94. The Lord shall open to you his good treasury the heavens,

  95. to give the rein of your land in its season,

  96. and to bless all the work of your hands. But

  97. you shall not borrow. And the Lord shall make you

  98. the head and not the tail. And you shall be

  99. above only, and you shall not be beneath. If you

  100. heed the commandments of the Lord your God, which I

  101. command you this day, and are watchful to do them.

  102. And you shall not turn aside from any of the

  103. words which I command you this day to the right

  104. hand or to the left, to go after their gods

  105. to serve them. But if you will not obey the

  106. voice of the Lord your God, being watchful to do

  107. all his commandments and his statutes, which I command you

  108. this day, Then all these curses shall come upon you

  109. and overtake you. First shall you be in the city,

  110. and cursed shall you be in the field. First, shall

  111. be your basket and your needing trout. First shall be

  112. the fruit of your body, of your land, of the

  113. increase of your cattle, and the young of your sheep.

  114. Cursed shall you be when you come in, and cursed

  115. shall you be when you go out. The Lord shall

  116. send you curses, confusion, and rebuke in every enterprise to

  117. which you set your hands, until you are destroyed, perishing

  118. quickly because of the evil of your doings by which

  119. you have forsaken me. The Lord will make the pestilence

  120. cling to you until he has consumed you from the

  121. land into which you go to possess. I'm going to

  122. stop there, because the curses are quite lengthy. In fact,

  123. the curses are way more than the blessings, and so

  124. what I want to do is just stop there. And

  125. I just want to say this that all of the blessings,

  126. all of the blessings are dependent on one thing. If

  127. is a big word. If you will listen diligently to

  128. the voice of the Lord your God, being watchful to

  129. do all his commandments. And it's simply that if we

  130. want to walk in the blessing of the Lord in

  131. twenty twenty five, and I can't imagine anybody that wouldn't

  132. want to walk in the blessing of the Lord in

  133. twenty twenty five. But there's going to be a whole

  134. heck a lot of people who are not going to

  135. listen diligently to the voice of the Lord. And I'm

  136. not going to be watchful to do his commandments. But

  137. my listeners, my listeners, are going to be diligent to

  138. listen to the voice of the Lord, your God, and

  139. you're going to be watchful to do all his commandments.

  140. I have great faith in you this year in twenty

  141. twenty five. I have faith that you've been a faithful listener,

  142. and I'm bla believing that you're going to be faithful

  143. to do exactly what God says to do. I believe

  144. you're going to be faithful to listen diligently, diligently to

  145. the voice of the Lord, and you're going to be

  146. watchful to do all his commandments. Amen. So I didn't

  147. want to keep harping on these curses because they're pretty

  148. pretty nasty. Like if you don't listen to him and

  149. you aren't watchful to do his commandments, I mean, this

  150. is what you're going to end up with. I don't

  151. want that for you. I don't believe you're going to

  152. go there. So now I want to speak a blessing

  153. over all of you, and I'm just asking you to

  154. sit quietly and just be all ears, Just be all ears,

  155. and received leave this blessing over your life for twenty

  156. twenty five. This is meant to encourage you and strengthen

  157. you and give you hope for this coming year. You

  158. and I do not know what will befall us in

  159. twenty twenty five. We have no idea. Only the Lord knows.

  160. He knows the end from the beginning, and the beginning

  161. from the end. He knows we don't. So we want

  162. to walk in the blessing this year. Amen. So first

  163. I would like to bless your families. May you enjoy

  164. peace and harmony in your home. May your home be

  165. filled with the love of Christ and wonderful hospitality. May

  166. your doors be open to the stranger, and may you

  167. always find ways to help those in need. May your

  168. children be raised in the admonition of the Lord, and

  169. may your children never stray from your godly guidance. I

  170. bless your children to be healthy, strong, kind, full of compassion, loving, tender,

  171. and willing to obey you as their parents. Excel in

  172. school and excel in whatever gifts the Lord has bestowed

  173. upon them. And those of you who have grown children

  174. who are not living for the Lord, I bless them

  175. with salvation. I bless them with a hunger and thirst

  176. for righteousness. I bless them to come out of the

  177. darkness and into God's marvelous light. I bless them to

  178. be great followers and lovers of Jesus Christ. May your

  179. marriages be healthy and filled with a love and deep

  180. respect for one another. May you always look for the

  181. best in each other and always be a good helpmate

  183. one another, especially in trying times, difficult situations and circumstances,

  184. and also be patient with your children. I bless you

  190. you may seek the Lord as your husband, always knowing

  191. that he is always there to help you. May you

  192. be willing to offer your assistance to others in need.

  193. I bless you to be fruitful in all you put

  194. your hand to, and may you grow in the grace

  195. and faith of our Lord, Jesus Christ. I bless everyone

  196. within the sound of my voice to be healed and

  202. your minds with the peace of Christ. And I bless

  203. your hearts to be filled with that same peace, full

  204. of faith, full of the fire of God, full of

  205. the love of God, and overflowing with the joy of

  206. the Lord. I bless your hands to carry the fire

  207. and anointing of God, to lay hands on the sea

  208. and see them recover. I bless your hands to be

  209. pain free and to carry out whatever service the Lord

  210. has for you. I bless your bodies to be in
