Speaker 1: from ninth verses from Matthew six twenty five to thirty four.
Speaker 1: Six times this word anxious was actually mentioned. If you
Speaker 1: check the another version and IV talks about worry worry?
Speaker 1: Do we worry? Worried? What is anxiety? Anxiety is an
Speaker 1: emotion characterized by an unpleasant state of inner turmoil something inside.
Speaker 1: Maybe you don't see it outside, but something's happening inside,
Speaker 1: often accompanied by nervous behavior such as pacing back and forth.
Speaker 1: Hindiepooh anxious, I know I'm pacing back and forth. Excited
Speaker 1: excited I'm excited, such as pacing back and forth. It
Speaker 1: is the subjectivity unpleasant feelings of dread over anticipated or
Speaker 1: future events. Something's about to happeness in your mind. You're anxious.
Speaker 1: You're anxious about tomorrow. Why tomorrow is Monday? Okay, tomorrow,
Speaker 1: Monday is starting on school, starting on work week. Marquit
Speaker 1: pin arama, mahalmung boss mark you nothing's to do some
Speaker 1: you you you you feel anxious already. There was a
Speaker 1: translation about anxiety worry that it is characterized by a
Speaker 1: person being choked anxiety. You're here, You're like being choked.
Speaker 1: You're being choked. I remember I I know of this
Speaker 1: person who he was a businessman, and then when he
Speaker 1: was doing business that be built up anxiety. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: it always starts Saturday evening when Sunday comes. Sometimes they
Speaker 1: would go to church. He would be with his family.
Speaker 1: He would be with his close family and extended family.
Speaker 1: But then most oftentimes his mind won't be with them,
Speaker 1: and then magda be built up. Now on towards after lunchtime,
Speaker 1: going going to the evening, he would be so reclusive,
Speaker 1: notey and sometimes because he's so anxious. He saw anxious
Speaker 1: because of the next day, what will happen the next day?
Speaker 1: Checks would come in. You don't know if there are
Speaker 1: actually funds in your in your account, payables that should
Speaker 1: have been paid, You're not sure if it's already paid.
Speaker 1: Anxiety builds up. You know that that person I was
Speaker 1: telling you about was me years ago, years ago, when
Speaker 1: I was a business and I was a business man.
Speaker 1: It's something that that I really felt. There's like a choke.
Speaker 1: There's like a choke that even when when my children
Speaker 1: would come to me, I would embarrass them at times
Speaker 1: because I didn't want to talk to them and it
Speaker 1: was supposed to be our family day. It was supposed
Speaker 1: to be a family day today today, as we read
Speaker 1: through the scriptures, as we learn God's word for you
Speaker 1: and I, my prayer is just Jesus doesn't only want
Speaker 1: to address anxiety, but also release us from anxiety. We
Speaker 1: have to be released. You just want to know about
Speaker 1: anxiety and anxiety what Jesus had to say. But you're
Speaker 1: not to release We ought to be released. In one
Speaker 1: one of the studies that I found is that mild
Speaker 1: cases of anxiety depression may actually lead to an early death.
Speaker 1: Lead on early death. Let's read now in Matthew six
Speaker 1: twenty five to thirty four about anxiety sets up says
Speaker 1: here therefore, I tell you, do not be anxious about
Speaker 1: your life, what you will eat, or what you will drink,
Speaker 1: nor about your body. What you will put on. Is
Speaker 1: not life more than the food, and body more than clothing.
Speaker 1: Look at the birds of the air. They neither saw,
Speaker 1: nor reap, nor gather into barns, And yet your heavenly
Speaker 1: Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?
Speaker 1: Verse twenty seven. And which of you, being anxious, can
Speaker 1: add a single hour to his span of life? And
Speaker 1: why are you being so anxious about clothing? Consider the
Speaker 1: leies of the field, how they grow? They neither toil
Speaker 1: nor spin. Yet I tell you even Solomon, in all
Speaker 1: his glory, was not arrayed like one of these. But
Speaker 1: if God so close the grass of the field, which
Speaker 1: today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into oven, will
Speaker 1: he not much more clothe you, oh you of little faith. Therefore,
Speaker 1: do not be anxious, saying what shall we eat, or
Speaker 1: what shall we drink? What shall we wear? For the
Speaker 1: gentile seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father
Speaker 1: knows that you need them all. But seek first the
Speaker 1: Kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things
Speaker 1: will be added to you Therefore, do not be anxious
Speaker 1: about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself sufficient,
Speaker 1: for the day is its own trouble. So oftentimes, I
Speaker 1: know you've read this passage hundreds of times, maybe some
Speaker 1: of you thousands of times. Thousands can say version and
Speaker 1: version of Babelica. Therefore, do not be anxious. But we
Speaker 1: might miss a very big part. The very big part
Speaker 1: there is that therefore, therefore that word, therefore, that small
Speaker 1: word therefore is therefore a reason we have to settle,
Speaker 1: is it? First? Remember last week when you talked about
Speaker 1: where do you actually lay your treasures? In heaven or
Speaker 1: in earth? That therefore is the verse previous to that
Speaker 1: verse twenty four when it said, no one can serve
Speaker 1: two masters, for either he will hate the one and
Speaker 1: love the other, or he will be devoted to the
Speaker 1: one and despite the other. It has to be settled first.
Speaker 1: If you're not sure if money is your master or
Speaker 1: or God is your master, you have to settle now
Speaker 1: before the very word of God settles in our heart,
Speaker 1: and only when we have made our choice for heavenly treasure,
Speaker 1: for light for God. Therefore, I tell you this is
Speaker 1: how must we Behave you have to settle this first
Speaker 1: in your very hearts. Kingdom thinking would lead us to kingdom,
Speaker 1: living kingdom. Living the way we think will dictate the
Speaker 1: way we are gonna live. Our Father in heaven hallow,
Speaker 1: do your name your kingdom. Come, Your will be done
Speaker 1: on earth as it is in heaven. Then it follows,
Speaker 1: give us this day our daily bread. We have to
Speaker 1: set the imperative first. Are we living for the kingdom
Speaker 1: or are you building your own kingdom? Are we living
Speaker 1: for God's kingdom? Or are we living for the heavenly kingdom?
Speaker 1: Jesus here address three things about anxiety. First, reasons of
Speaker 1: our anxiety? What are the different reasons? I know you
Speaker 1: have your reasons. If your anxious right now, if you're
Speaker 1: just a bit worried. Verse twenty five said what you
Speaker 1: will eat, what you will drink? What? Nor about your body,
Speaker 1: what you will put on. Jesus is not just saying here, okay,
Speaker 1: this is all These are only that are He's actually
Speaker 1: questioning us, Are these the things you're worried about? Menial stuff?
Speaker 1: He's telling us menial stuff minia especially for him, because
Speaker 1: he could provide over and beyond the art our very need.
Speaker 1: He's saying here, if we are worried about our clothing,
Speaker 1: the food we eat, the drink that we need to
Speaker 1: to drink, cunune lang po lamanathen cunun lang anxious that
Speaker 1: ile papan beginning a tim I'm responsibility that what more
Speaker 1: the bigger stuff. The question here, the question that he's
Speaker 1: asking here is why why are you worried? What are
Speaker 1: there different reasons that that that that we are actually anxious?
Speaker 1: Basic needs? We say that we needed to survive, and
Speaker 1: then then if we if you keep on counting and
Speaker 1: then cool, cool. And you have that anxiety now of
Speaker 1: being in lack, maybe you're not really in lack. Maybe
Speaker 1: you're just looking at the other person, or you're thinking
Speaker 1: about what people would tell you we talk about you
Speaker 1: and how people would perceive you. That's why you're in lack.
Speaker 1: Most of the time, we're anxious because people. We know
Speaker 1: that people are looking at us and our stuff. Some
Speaker 1: people are actually anxious about their health to the point
Speaker 1: that it's actually eating them alive. Some are very anxious
Speaker 1: about death. Why are you anxious about death? I'm not
Speaker 1: saying I want to die now, but if God takes
Speaker 1: me good, are you prepared to die? Have you prepared yourself.
Speaker 1: A preparation is not in the money even more. No, no, no, no, no no.
Speaker 1: Have you laid out treasures in heaven? Do you know
Speaker 1: that you're actually going to heaven? A lot of people
Speaker 1: are anxious about calamities, anxious about power, power, that they
Speaker 1: don't have power, or they have power, they might lose power.
Speaker 1: They're anxious about that also, and uncertainty of the future.
Speaker 1: God is asking why what do you actually value? Why
Speaker 1: are you anxious? Is not life more than food and
Speaker 1: the body more than clothing? Only you can answer that,
Speaker 1: he says in verse twenty seven. And which of you,
Speaker 1: by being anxious can add a single hour to his
Speaker 1: span of life? He's asking us here the question, what
Speaker 1: is the reason that you're worried? Don't you know that
Speaker 1: you're not actually in control? We are not. If anyone
Speaker 1: of you hear anyone of us here think that you
Speaker 1: are in control, We're never in control. We think we
Speaker 1: are in control, but we're not. We're not in control.
Speaker 1: You know, eighty five percent of anxiety, this is research
Speaker 1: by science. Eighty five percent of anxiety doesn't actually happen,
Speaker 1: only fifteen percent. But then we worry too much? Can
Speaker 1: you can you imagine that do you have mathematicians in
Speaker 1: the house, you probability only fifteen percent of the time
Speaker 1: that you get worried, can it actually happen? Worry is
Speaker 1: wasting today's time to clutter up tomorrow's opportunity because you
Speaker 1: can't move on. You're thinking about today today. Worry, worry
Speaker 1: word don yai yesterday with yesterday's trouble. Mayari olizaren papa.
Speaker 1: As parents, I'm I'm a parent. Here you always thinking,
Speaker 1: you always be thinking, okay, what what if this happens
Speaker 1: to my child as it happened to me. Leave those
Speaker 1: worries behind, perfect love, cast out fear. Where do you
Speaker 1: put your hope now? Is it in your control? Trying
Speaker 1: to control, trying to control your child, trying to control
Speaker 1: every child you cannot surely is in control? In your
Speaker 1: finances and here and here increase no zero sabank account
Speaker 1: mo peri in palabas nang zerodulas lang. Right, we're not
Speaker 1: in control. We're never in control. But if you put
Speaker 1: your trust in the Lord, you know that he is
Speaker 1: in control. I love this group of people that were
Speaker 1: once they were slave, slave and they were granted freedom,
Speaker 1: and there was a leader who stood up and led
Speaker 1: them out. Remember the hundreds of years they were slave,
Speaker 1: Now going to their promised land. They started to grumble
Speaker 1: along the way in the middle the forty day only
Speaker 1: forty day journey, thirteen to forty years of journey. They
Speaker 1: still grumbled, grumbled and grumbled and grumbled that they want
Speaker 1: to they want to dethrone the leader. They want to say,
Speaker 1: can you just step out? We were we were, okay,
Speaker 1: a slave, but now that you have led us to
Speaker 1: our freedom, it's as if we're gonna die in search
Speaker 1: of our freedom. They started grumbling, grumbling. Never did they
Speaker 1: think that in the forty years that they were in
Speaker 1: the desert, in the wilderness, they never got hungry, They
Speaker 1: never got thirsty. They were provided for and even the
Speaker 1: very souls of their sandals hind. Those were the Israelites
Speaker 1: when they were being led out. They were only thinking
Speaker 1: about themselves. They were always saying, okay, b blick Munhao's
Speaker 1: Egypt done to taste freedom? Do we worry? How do
Speaker 1: we worry? What are the things that are making us
Speaker 1: so anxious? Now? What are the things that keep us
Speaker 1: so worried that even our health, even our relationships are
Speaker 1: are being affected. Yes, relationships can be affected by worrying
Speaker 1: about what happened yesterday, and then you cannot move on?
Speaker 1: What are those second thing that Jesus addressed, Here is
Speaker 1: the root cause of our anxiety? Blatantly, blatantly, he told
Speaker 1: us the very root costs. In verse thirty, he says,
Speaker 1: but if God so close the grass of the field,
Speaker 1: which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven,
Speaker 1: will he not much more clothe view, oh you of
Speaker 1: little faith? Zero and saying, you know what, It's not
Speaker 1: about the clothes. It's not about the food, it's not
Speaker 1: about the drink. It's about your faith. Do you trust me?
Speaker 1: Do you do? We trust him? Proof? Proof as people,
Speaker 1: very visual proof, he said. Look at the birds of
Speaker 1: the air day, neither so nor reap nor gathering barns,
Speaker 1: And yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not
Speaker 1: more valuable than they are? Proof? And why are you
Speaker 1: so anxious about clothing? Consider the dealaise of the field,
Speaker 1: how they grow, they neither toil or spill. Yet I
Speaker 1: tell you, even Solomon, in all his glory, was not
Speaker 1: arrayed like any one of these, oh you of little faith,
Speaker 1: talks about us little faith, little faith. When you when
Speaker 1: you look at the translation, little faith. The very root
Speaker 1: word of little faith is dull in hearing, dull in hearing.
Speaker 1: You're dull in hearing or made dull in hearing. Remember
Speaker 1: Philippians four six. Do not be anxious about anything, but
Speaker 1: in everything, by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your
Speaker 1: requests be known to God. Philippines four six. That was
Speaker 1: on my wall in my office, But never did it
Speaker 1: penetrate our heart every morning, every morning before when I
Speaker 1: when I was a businessman, it was my It was
Speaker 1: my business partner who shared the Gospel to me, and
Speaker 1: she told me, why don't you write in the wall,
Speaker 1: But you don't get anxious? IM worried, So I would
Speaker 1: drighten the wall. I would always read it. But then
Speaker 1: it never penetrated my heart dull in hearing. It was
Speaker 1: mere words. It never penetated in my heart whiter because
Speaker 1: I was dull in hearing, I had little faith. Where
Speaker 1: is your faith right now? How strong is our faith
Speaker 1: right now? Remember when Peter looked for Jesus and Jesus said, Peter,
Speaker 1: come to me when they were on the boat. Remember
Speaker 1: that story when Jesus asked him, Come, come over. Peter
Speaker 1: might have been excited at first. He was gonna walk
Speaker 1: on water, remember that. But when he took a step,
Speaker 1: before he actually took that step, suddenly he heard the
Speaker 1: wind howling, heard the water splashing before he even set foot.
Speaker 1: What happened? He drowned? He almost drowned. Why because instead
Speaker 1: of hearing the voice of Jesus, he heard worries, he
Speaker 1: heard problems, He heard anxieties. And then it crept In
Speaker 1: talks about us as hearing. He talks about the status.
Speaker 1: Do you hear your father in heaven? Do you know
Speaker 1: that he's your father? What is your status? What is
Speaker 1: your status? There's a clue here and saying why why worry?
Speaker 1: He said, there your heavenly father. There's a metaphor here
Speaker 1: that that God created the birds and provided for them.
Speaker 1: But suddenly it shifted and Jesus reminded us he did
Speaker 1: not just God did just just created us. But he
Speaker 1: is our father. That means I will provide for you.
Speaker 1: Have you seen a father not not wanting to provide
Speaker 1: for his children? Why worry? There's a comparison, now, are
Speaker 1: you a gentile? For the gentile sick? After all these
Speaker 1: things and your heavenly father knows that you need them all.
Speaker 1: He's asking here, now, do you know that as a
Speaker 1: Christ follower, I am your father. As a gentile, we're
Speaker 1: not gentiles. We're Christ followers. The question is what is
Speaker 1: our status talking about our faith? What is our status
Speaker 1: now with God? My prayer is that you can boldly
Speaker 1: say that I am a son and a daughter of God.
Speaker 1: I am a son or I am a daughter of God.
Speaker 1: Let's move now to the third the last thing that
Speaker 1: Jesus actually addressed here. Third and last one is the
Speaker 1: resolution to our anxiety. How can we resolve this? What
Speaker 1: is the What is the solution Jesus wants us to
Speaker 1: be released from our anxiety? Church, if you're ready right
Speaker 1: now to write notes, okay, pastors, the pastor is gonna
Speaker 1: give me step one, step two, step three how to
Speaker 1: be released of my anxiety. I'm gonna I'm gonna disappoint you.
Speaker 1: There's no step. There's no step one, step two, step three.
Speaker 1: It would always go back again to the reason and
Speaker 1: to the root. Cause. It would talk about our relationship,
Speaker 1: because if we know that he is our father, we
Speaker 1: would gladly release to him all our anxiety. Matthew six
Speaker 1: thirty three says, seek first the kingdom of God and
Speaker 1: his righteousness, and all of this will be added to you.
Speaker 1: Your kingdom. Come, Your will be done on earth as
Speaker 1: it is in heaven. Lord, your kingdom first before my needs.
Speaker 1: Why because I know as you as you are my
Speaker 1: Jehovah Father, you are my provider. You are Jehoah of
Speaker 1: a gyra that will provide for me. Now I would
Speaker 1: do the very will of your kingdom. I would move,
Speaker 1: I would help in advancing your kingdom, and everything will
Speaker 1: just follow. Put Jesus first. He is our primary. He
Speaker 1: is first, and he is our one and only. In Romans,
Speaker 1: Paul says it very clearly in Romans eight thirty two,
Speaker 1: where he said he who did not spare his own son,
Speaker 1: but gave him up for us all, how will he
Speaker 1: not also with him graciously give us all things. If
Speaker 1: the very reason now you're hearing God's word today is
Speaker 1: because of what Jesus did on that cross, how can
Speaker 1: he withhold those good things that you're praying for that
Speaker 1: you're anxious about. If he God him self did not
Speaker 1: spare his son for us to enjoy life here on
Speaker 1: earth and in eternity. How can he withhold material things,
Speaker 1: minial stuff? How Philippin's four sex Do not be anxious
Speaker 1: about anything, but in everything, by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving,
Speaker 1: Let your requests be known to God. H It's a
Speaker 1: purpose why I put this cross here. There are times
Speaker 1: that when we worry, we would like to carry the
Speaker 1: cross that Jesus actually carried. It's not too heavy now,
Speaker 1: but it gets heavier in a while. That's like a
Speaker 1: picture of us being anxious. And that's just one cross.
Speaker 1: But if there's another worry, another anxiety. First it was parenting,
Speaker 1: Next it was about money. You carry another cross again,
Speaker 1: and then about sickness. Somebody get really sick in the family.
Speaker 1: You grab another cross. Nobody's putting it on you. Remember,
Speaker 1: you just grab another cross sometimes freely. Let me take
Speaker 1: that cross, And then something happened in the relationship. Let me,
Speaker 1: let me, let me, let me carry another cross. Took
Speaker 1: it upon ourselves, not realizing that that cross, that very cross,
Speaker 1: is the illustration of our freedom. We take across at
Speaker 1: a time, across as a time, and we carry it.
Speaker 1: We try to do it on our own way, on
Speaker 1: our own Remember, I remember a family who's very dear
Speaker 1: to us. They're in church now, but before they got
Speaker 1: into church, their marriage was was dead. It was actually dead.
Speaker 1: They got restored. After that, they found out that one
Speaker 1: of their child has who was suffering epilepsy, has to
Speaker 1: take medication. The daily medication calame maintenance now because it
Speaker 1: didn't she didn't actually grow out of it. Then they
Speaker 1: found out that one of their child has actually a
Speaker 1: congenital heart disease that they also need medication for. And
Speaker 1: just recently they actually found out their last, their bunso
Speaker 1: has lupus. Me and my wife and we were just talking.
Speaker 1: We're just say we would just asked ourselves why, Lord, why?
Speaker 1: And then and that dad actually just survived a brain surgery.
Speaker 1: When all of us were actually celebrating, here comes a
Speaker 1: news we're celebrating almost almost almost one year now, that
Speaker 1: that that that that he's recovering. The marriage is in
Speaker 1: fact that they're they're serving the church. The kids are
Speaker 1: all serving the church. Oh yeah, your last your youngest
Speaker 1: daughter has lupus. We were just asking why. There's no answer.
Speaker 1: My wife and I drew strength from the kid's prayer.
Speaker 1: What is her prayer? Her prayer is is? She cried
Speaker 1: she They cried terribly. As a family. They questioned God.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's okay to question God. It's okay. But after
Speaker 1: that you move on, You move on. Hey, I'm not
Speaker 1: telling you no looking on armor of God? Hello? Can
Speaker 1: we put on the arm more of God? Because nat
Speaker 1: in Kayah, I drew strength and console from the from
Speaker 1: the child when she said when we ask her, are
Speaker 1: you okay? I'm okay? Now why I've released it to
Speaker 1: the Lord. I've prayed about it. And look at my parents.
Speaker 1: Their marriage is okay. Look at my dad, he's okay
Speaker 1: now after brain surgery. Look at my two sisters, they're okay.
Speaker 1: With all their congenital diseases. They're okay. Their foundcenting properly.
Speaker 1: So I know I will be okay because God is
Speaker 1: in control. God is in control. Sometimes we have fears,
Speaker 1: we have condemnations, we have doubts, and we have worry.
Speaker 1: But Jesus is redefining us here. Jesus redefined our priorities
Speaker 1: to release us from all our anxieties. He wants to
Speaker 1: release you and I. He wants to release you and I. Yes,
Speaker 1: the problem might be there tomorrow when you wake up,
Speaker 1: but it should not drag you down and put added weight,
Speaker 1: added cross on you. Because remember the empty tomb of Jesus.
Speaker 1: When we took all our sins, took all our sufferings
Speaker 1: on the cross, he rose again after three days. The
Speaker 1: empty tomb of Jesus is the promise that he will
Speaker 1: never leave you nor forsake you. That perfect love casts
Speaker 1: out fear, that there's no condemnation, there's no shame. Put
Speaker 1: it on him, release, release upon the Lord. Can I
Speaker 1: just ask everybody, for everybody, everybody, let's participate. Can I
Speaker 1: just everybody to just close your eyes? Close your eyes?
Speaker 1: When was the last time you actually breathe? When was
Speaker 1: the last time that you you breathe normally? When was
Speaker 1: the last time that you released everything? You've been in
Speaker 1: church for the longest time, You've been in ministry for
Speaker 1: the longest time, you've been a volunteer for the longest time,
Speaker 1: you've read your Bible the longest time, or this is
Speaker 1: your first time to come to church, first time to
Speaker 1: hear the gospel, first time to be in a church
Speaker 1: community like this. Jesus is asking you, my son and
Speaker 1: my daughter, when was the last time you breathe? The

Speaker 1: hold it, and then release. Just breathe in next two minutes,

Speaker 1: release it to you. Lord. More than you hear the
Speaker 1: size of our hearts, you see what's in them. The
Speaker 1: Lord is saying, unto you, my son and my daughter,
Speaker 1: I don't want you to carry all those weights. They're
Speaker 1: not meant for you. I have already tooken it upon
Speaker 1: me on that cross, and when I declared it is finished,
Speaker 1: it is finished. So why are you carried all those weights?
Speaker 1: Release them to me, my sons and my daughters. Release worries,
Speaker 1: release those doubts. I would never count any wrong, I
Speaker 1: would never shame you. I would uphold you with my
Speaker 1: fairy right at hand. Release them to me, the Lord says, Lord,
Speaker 1: I pray right now, Lord, for my brothers and my sisters.
Speaker 1: If it's about our faith, Lord, make our hearing not
Speaker 1: dull but sharp. Make the very words, Lord God, come
Speaker 1: to life as we read them in and through our lives. Lord,
Speaker 1: make us salt and light by giving us that light,
Speaker 1: giving the very path to take, the very direction to take,
Speaker 1: Because you are lighting our paths. Thank you, Lord God.
Speaker 1: Lord that we are we are told to be, that
Speaker 1: we are more than conquerors. It's not about our inability,
Speaker 1: it's not about our weaknesses, because when we are weak,
Speaker 1: you are strong.
Speaker 4: Because your word is true, your word is perfect, Your
Speaker 4: word is is consoling us.

Speaker 1: will never leave us, that he's always there comforting us. Father,
Speaker 1: I pray, Lord, that would sharpen us, sharpen our spiritual
Speaker 1: ears to know which is yours and which are not yours.
Speaker 1: Give us discernment and wisdom. Lord, I pray, Lord, you
Speaker 1: give us boldness and courage to fight every battle, knowing,
Speaker 1: Lord God, that you are the source of our strength.
Speaker 1: You are our banner and our shield, and you fight
Speaker 1: those battles with us. So, Lord, I pray, right now,
Speaker 1: trample upon the anxieties of our people, trample upon every worry,
Speaker 1: every fear, and our doubt, because it is not from you,
Speaker 1: the Lord says, it is not from you. Lord, I
Speaker 1: declare this over our church right now, each one of us,
Speaker 1: each each and every family, Lord God, in this praise.
Speaker 1: Right now. The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want.
Speaker 1: He makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me.
Speaker 1: Besides still waters, he restores my soul. He leads me
Speaker 1: in pas of righteousness for his namesake. Even though I
Speaker 1: walk through the value of the shadow of death, I
Speaker 1: will fear no evil, for you are with me, your rod,
Speaker 1: your stuff. They comfort me. You prepare a table before
Speaker 1: me in the presence of my enemies. You annoyed my
Speaker 1: head with oil. My cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy
Speaker 1: shall follow me all the days of my life, and
Speaker 1: I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
Speaker 1: He has asked everybody, just live up your hand's Father.
Speaker 1: We declare this over our lives right now.
Speaker 4: No fears, no worry, and only you Jesus has redified
