Speaker 2: We hope that this podcast finds you in good shape.
Speaker 2: And now here's your message. You're listening to a message
Speaker 2: from Victory. Discover how we can grow in deeper trust
Speaker 2: than God. In week two of our Christmas series heart So,
Speaker 2: Let's look at the Store.
Speaker 1: In Look chapter one, beginning in verse twenty six to
Speaker 1: thirty eight, it says, in the sixth month, the angel
Speaker 1: Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee
Speaker 1: named Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man whose
Speaker 1: name was Joseph of the House of David. And the
Speaker 1: virgin's name was Mary. And it came to her and said, greetings,
Speaker 1: O favored one, the Lord is with you.
Speaker 2: But she was greatly troubled.
Speaker 1: At the saying, and tried to discern what sort of
Speaker 1: greeting this might be. And the angel said to her,
Speaker 1: do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor
Speaker 1: with God. Everyone say favor, and behold, you will conceive
Speaker 1: in your womb and bear a son, and you shall
Speaker 1: call his name Jesus. He will be great and will
Speaker 1: be called the Son of the Most High. And the
Speaker 1: Lord God will give to him the throne of his
Speaker 1: father David. And he will reign over the house of
Speaker 1: Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.
Speaker 1: And Mary said to the Angel, how will this be
Speaker 1: since I am a virgin? And the Angel answered her,
Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power
Speaker 1: of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore, the child
Speaker 1: to be born will be called Holy, the Son of God.
Speaker 1: And behold your relative Elizabeth in her old age. Her
Speaker 1: cousin has also conceived a son. And this is the
Speaker 1: sixth month with her who was called barren. For nothing
Speaker 1: will be impossible with God. I mean, have your encourage
Speaker 1: with that word. Nothing is impossible with God. And Mary said, behold,
Speaker 1: I am the servant of the Lord.
Speaker 2: Let it be to me according to your word.
Speaker 1: And the Angel departed from her. Can you bow your
Speaker 1: heads with me and close your eyes? Lord, We thank
Speaker 1: you for your word today. And I pray Lord for
Speaker 1: some of us here who've been in church for quite
Speaker 1: some time. Lord, maybe if we've heard this story before,
Speaker 1: but I pray Lord that your word will come to
Speaker 1: us in a fresh way.
Speaker 2: I pray that you will show us.
Speaker 1: Something in your word that will speak into our situation today.
Speaker 1: I pray, like Mary, Lord, whatever interruption, whatever is it
Speaker 1: that you're doing in our life, I pray we will
Speaker 1: be able to recognize it, and I pray we will
Speaker 1: be able to embrace it. Lord Lord, I pray this
Speaker 1: will not only prepare us for Christmas, but will prepare
Speaker 1: us for the rest of our lives.
Speaker 2: And Jesus name me pray amen.
Speaker 1: Okay, just to show hands, how many planners do we
Speaker 1: have in this room today? Ry?
Speaker 2: You like to plan controlling? I made your OC How
Speaker 2: many have you here?
Speaker 1: You're more of the spontaneous type of person.
Speaker 2: You just let it flow.
Speaker 1: You just you know, in a film every day papass
Speaker 1: today or not only go bar today? Or not spontaneous?
Speaker 1: You don't like to plan. I think I mentioned it before,
Speaker 1: but I'm the kind of person who likes to plan.
Speaker 1: I like planning my week before it actually happens. Normally,
Speaker 1: I would sit down on a Sunday try to really
Speaker 1: have a preview of what's going to happen in the
Speaker 1: next seven days and try to plan what will happen
Speaker 1: in the morning, lunch and dinner and evening and all
Speaker 1: of that.
Speaker 2: I like to plan, but I'm not really a good planner.
Speaker 2: I just like to plan. Now. God is a planner, but.
Speaker 1: Can appear very spontaneous. At the same time, he likes
Speaker 1: surprises and likes to change our plans from time to time.
Speaker 1: He's a planner, but at the same time, he appears
Speaker 1: to be very spontaneous, full of surprises. You know, my
Speaker 1: wife likes surprises in a surprise Qusha, as long as
Speaker 1: I consult her before I do it, because okay, Bahaman
Speaker 1: and tas. So if I will surprise her with flowers
Speaker 1: or gifts or a place, it's a surprise.
Speaker 2: Get the next week roses or kids because.
Speaker 1: I tried surprising her before the Indian Agustohan society and
Speaker 1: your effort no king awe pataloi. So you know, would
Speaker 1: it be nice if okay, sometimes God will surprise us,
Speaker 1: But wouldn't it be nice if God will consult us
Speaker 1: before he will surprise us so we can prepare. I
Speaker 1: hope that's the case, but that's not what normally happens.
Speaker 1: So we're going to look at the story of Mary
Speaker 1: and see what God's message is for us as we
Speaker 1: prepare for Christmas. Because although there's no angel that will
Speaker 1: appear in your house and tell you that you'll be
Speaker 1: pregnant with God's son, you know, if you're a teenager
Speaker 1: or a single person, don't try it at home.
Speaker 2: Although there won't.
Speaker 1: Be an angel appearing to you this Christmas and telling
Speaker 1: you that there may be surprises that God or life
Speaker 1: might bring into your life. Your idea of a perfect
Speaker 1: Christmas may not happen the way you planned it to be,
Speaker 1: or life or next year or three five years from now.
Speaker 1: So I believe the message that the angel gave to
Speaker 1: Mary is a message for us today as well. And
Speaker 1: there are three things I want to highlight from the
Speaker 1: story of Mary.
Speaker 2: First one I want to highlight is God's favor, God's favor.
Speaker 1: In verse twenty eight, it's as greetings, O favored one.
Speaker 2: The Lord is with you.
Speaker 1: And then the angel repeated that in verse thirty he
Speaker 1: is said, do not be afraid, Mary, for you have
Speaker 1: found favor.
Speaker 2: Twice the word favor showed up.
Speaker 1: How many of you heard you want God's favor over
Speaker 1: your life.
Speaker 2: You want the favor of God. Now why Mary? And
Speaker 2: who is Mary anyway.
Speaker 1: First of all, the Bible may to us that she's
Speaker 1: from Nazareth. Now, when I saw that, I was reminded
Speaker 1: of John chapter one, verse forty six. This is when
Speaker 1: Philip was trying to invite Nathaniel to Jesus so that
Speaker 1: he can introduce them together.
Speaker 2: And here's what he said.
Speaker 1: Nathaniel said to him, can anything good come out of Nazareth?
Speaker 2: And Philip said to him, come and see.
Speaker 1: So there's this assumption, and there's this reputation that if
Speaker 1: you're from Nazareth, you're not. There's nothing special about you.
Speaker 1: That's not a tourist destination. There's nothing special about Nazareth.
Speaker 1: It's not famous, it's not rich. It does a bad reputation.
Speaker 1: Nobody is really excited to be there. And maybe that's
Speaker 1: describing your Maybe that that's describing your family, at least
Speaker 1: in your vantage point. Maybe that's describing your province or
Speaker 1: your school, or your past. There's nothing good that you
Speaker 1: can see in your situation. Now, not only that she
Speaker 1: was a virgin, she's young. Some theologians are saying she's
Speaker 1: between fourteen to sixteen years old. And again, during their time,
Speaker 1: their maturity.
Speaker 2: Starts very early.
Speaker 1: Men will be employed in the military by the age
Speaker 1: of twelve and above, so it's common in their culture.
Speaker 1: So she's a virgins, is young and about to get married.
Speaker 1: And I'm sure I think that she's not the only virgin,
Speaker 1: and she's not the only one planning a wedding at
Speaker 1: the time. So there's really nothing special about her situation.
Speaker 1: And there's only one explaining why she was chosen and
Speaker 1: what made her the prime candidate for God's favor. And
Speaker 1: here's one word explanation why she was chosen, and that
Speaker 1: is the word favor.
Speaker 2: Everyone say favor. Well, not a favor, favor, favor.
Speaker 1: She don't deserve it, she's not qualified. She simply found favor.
Speaker 1: And I think that's an important distinction to make, especially
Speaker 1: in a nation like ours, that Mary is not the
Speaker 1: source of favor. She's a recipient of God's favor. So
Speaker 1: we don't go to Mary and say, Mary, bless me
Speaker 1: and give me favor.
Speaker 2: No, she's not the source of favor. God is the
Speaker 2: source of favor.
Speaker 1: She's only a recipient of God's She's not qualified, she's
Speaker 1: not deserved of it. There's only one explanation why of
Speaker 1: all the young people during the time why all.
Speaker 2: Of the virgin at that time? Why her? And that's
Speaker 2: because of the favor of God. And you know why.
Speaker 1: What's the only explanation why you and I are here today?
Speaker 1: There's only one explanation why God saved you and me,
Speaker 1: and that is the favor of God. There's only one
Speaker 1: reason why you're here today. There's only one explanation why
Speaker 1: you're enjoying all the blessings you're enjoying today, why you
Speaker 1: have what you have today, and why you're able to
Speaker 1: do what you're able to do today, and that is
Speaker 1: the favor of God. If you are enjoying the ridiculous
Speaker 1: blessing of God today because of the favor of God,
Speaker 1: give him a shout.
Speaker 2: Of praise today. If you are enjoying the favor.
Speaker 1: Of God today, the only explanation for your calling, the
Speaker 1: only explanation for why your plans are succeeding, the only
Speaker 1: reason why, the only explanation is the favor of God.
Speaker 1: Can you please tell to the person say that next,
Speaker 1: you tell that person, I have the favor of God.
Speaker 1: The other word for favor is the word grace, and
Speaker 1: we all know that grace is the unmerited favor of God.
Speaker 1: You have it not because you deserve it. You have
Speaker 1: it not because you're good. You have it because God
Speaker 1: is good and God is gracious. But here's one important
Speaker 1: thing we need to understand about the.
Speaker 2: Favor of God.
Speaker 1: God's favor is not just about the blessings and the
Speaker 1: positive moments that we have. It's not just about the healing,
Speaker 1: the financial breakthroughs, the promotion, the reconciliation in the family.
Speaker 1: Sometimes when we talk about God's favor, we equate it with.
Speaker 2: The answered prayers and that's it.
Speaker 1: But God's favor is not just about the blessings and
Speaker 1: the positive moments in our lives. Because when the Angel
Speaker 1: told Mary that she found favor with God, her life
Speaker 1: did not become easier or more comfortable. In fact, when
Speaker 1: Mary received God's favor, it made her life complicated. Sien
Speaker 1: finally meron aroun spatial someone liba. Now God interrupted her life,
Speaker 1: made her life complicated. Can you imagine have mean and Mary,
Speaker 1: you found favor with God? Oh telega favor that was
Speaker 1: no in announcing you favor. Huh, Just imagining what's going
Speaker 1: on in the mind of Mary at that time.
Speaker 2: How will I explain this to Joseph.
Speaker 1: Joseph, good news. I'm pregnant and you're not the father.
Speaker 1: How will you explain?
Speaker 2: God? It's hard?
Speaker 1: What will happen to her dream wedding? Maybe this is
Speaker 1: something that she prayed for, something that she believed for.
Speaker 1: How will she parents the son of God? I'm giging
Speaker 1: mom and Jesus, but Jesus male bag and comuna. I
Speaker 1: repent of all my sins. Lord, But it's that what
Speaker 1: will the community, the people around them, the relatives. She
Speaker 1: can be put to death because during their time, if
Speaker 1: you're guilty of murder, you can be murder adultery, you
Speaker 1: can be stone to death. So God's is not really
Speaker 1: about what happens to us. It's about God being with
Speaker 1: us and God giving us what we need to accomplish
Speaker 1: His good, pleasing and perfect will for our lives.
Speaker 2: That's why when the angel showed up, he said, you
Speaker 2: are favored. The Lord is with you.
Speaker 1: So the favor of God is more than just what
Speaker 1: happens to us. When you say your favored, you receive
Speaker 1: favor from God. It means the Lord is with you
Speaker 1: and you have everything you need in this season of
Speaker 1: your life to honor God and accomplish his purpose for
Speaker 1: your life. God's favor is not really primarily for our convenience.
Speaker 1: It's for His glory and for his purpose. So that's
Speaker 1: the favor of God. That's why you may not have
Speaker 1: the money you need yet to pay all your bills.
Speaker 1: The doctor's report may not be favorable. There may be
Speaker 1: a situation at home, in your marriage or with your children.
Speaker 2: Your love life may may be like Cole, it's still zero.
Speaker 1: But if you have the favor of God, you can celebrate,
Speaker 1: You can rejoice, and you can be enthusiastic about the
Speaker 1: future because you know.
Speaker 2: God is with you and you have what you need for.
Speaker 1: The season of your life, so you can honor God
Speaker 1: and accomplish his purpose.
Speaker 2: How many of you are grateful for the favor of God.
Speaker 1: I mean we can rejoice not only when we have
Speaker 1: the answer to our prayers, but even if you don't
Speaker 1: yet have the answer to your prayers, you can celebrate today.
Speaker 1: How many of you know you can celebrate this Christmas?
Speaker 1: How many of you know you can worship God this Christmas?
Speaker 1: How many of you know you can look forward to
Speaker 1: the future with faith and expectation because the Lord is
Speaker 1: with you.
Speaker 2: You have the.
Speaker 1: Favor of God. I like Psalm verse thirty, verse five
Speaker 1: four is anger is but for a moment, and this
Speaker 1: favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night,
Speaker 1: but joy comes with the morning. There's joy in the
Speaker 1: presence of God, not only in good times, but during
Speaker 1: bad times. There is joy in the presence of God.
Speaker 1: There is peace in the presence of God. There is
Speaker 1: fulfillment in the presence of God. How many of you
Speaker 1: know God is speaking to you this today, and that's
Speaker 1: a message for you. Second thing that I'd like to
Speaker 1: highlight is God's plan Again, sometimes things won't happen.
Speaker 2: The way you planned it to be.
Speaker 1: You know, some people are frustrated because their Christmas is
Speaker 1: not their idea of a perfect Christmas.
Speaker 2: Idea of perfect Christmas.
Speaker 1: I have this phone, I have this vacation, I have
Speaker 1: this bonus, I have this chatter. And when that don't happen,
Speaker 1: then our Christmas is ruined. But sometimes things won't happen
Speaker 1: the way we plan.
Speaker 2: It to be.
Speaker 1: Our idea of perfect Christmas will remain just an idea.
Speaker 1: Means and I expectations reality. You're familiar with that. Right
Speaker 1: one time, I think it was twenty thirteen, My wife
Speaker 1: saw this picture of a family with Christmas lights around them,
Speaker 1: and before what we used to do is that we
Speaker 1: would produce Christmas card, print that and give that to
Speaker 1: our friends. That's our Christmas gift budgeted. So no, wife
Speaker 1: all cut simply land very easy.
Speaker 2: That was okay. So we tried more than one hour.
Speaker 1: We're sweating, we're irritated, and we're still not able to
Speaker 1: get the same shot that.
Speaker 2: Christmas line thirty minutes man, you're lighting was one.
Speaker 1: Are not frustrations, we're not able to catch and sometimes
Speaker 1: we have this we imagine something, but it's different in
Speaker 1: real life and the code that.
Speaker 2: We showed earlier.
Speaker 1: Don't let your plans make you miss God's purpose. You
Speaker 1: know the thing about Mary, I mean imagine it's frustrating
Speaker 1: when you try to capture the right moment picture. But
Speaker 1: can you imagine with the situation of Mary, it's not
Speaker 1: just a Pinterest picture. You're talking about her wedding, You're
Speaker 1: talking about her future. Imagine how frustrating that was. No,
Speaker 1: can we're preparing for the wedding, I mean months before
Speaker 1: my wife was already busy preparing for everything, booking the cater,
Speaker 1: the video, all of that she's busy negotiating.
Speaker 2: I'm just busy computing Mcano and the important in land.
Speaker 2: So I'm just imagining.
Speaker 1: I mean Marzuzumba negligiate, I mean send down and send
Speaker 1: him invitations and now interrupted. Can you imagine the frustration
Speaker 1: you told everyone your plan. Now it's not going to happen.
Speaker 1: But the good thing about her is that she embraced
Speaker 1: God's purpose for her life. Don't let your plans make
Speaker 1: you miss God's purpose. Sometimes sobrang dedicated, dial devoted, dyesa plan,
Speaker 1: and Atena Pusy, God intervened, No, We're not willing to
Speaker 1: let go of our plan, Lord, and in the process
Speaker 1: we miss God's per You know, when we look at
Speaker 1: Mary's life, we see God's sovereignty and omniscience. You know,
Speaker 1: he knows everything and he has the right to make
Speaker 1: decisions because he is aware of what was about to
Speaker 1: happen that we are totally ignorant about. How many of
Speaker 1: you believe God is all knowing And sometimes there are
Speaker 1: things we don't see. There are things that we complained
Speaker 1: about before, but now looking back years after, we look
Speaker 1: back and we praise God for it. It wasn't my
Speaker 1: plan to go to you Belt. I was in Losenna,
Speaker 1: serving as a youth pastor for five years when God
Speaker 1: changed the plan and I was asked to go to Manila.
Speaker 1: I've never been to Manila. First time to live here
Speaker 1: and stay here. I was twenty four years old, so
Speaker 1: everything was new to me, and of all the places
Speaker 1: when I was asked, would you be willing to go
Speaker 1: to Manila, transfer there and work with us there? First
Speaker 1: option because because can I go to Victory Q because
Speaker 1: I know some many pastors there.
Speaker 2: We already have relationship.
Speaker 1: And I think it will be best for me. But
Speaker 1: they said no, we're thinking actually of bringing you to Recto.
Speaker 1: It's from the province young reputation.
Speaker 2: Baha the rally uh.
Speaker 1: Snatcher, So pugno man put them on you bill. But
Speaker 1: you know they transferred me there. I stayed there for
Speaker 1: ten years, and looking back, I'm so grateful to God.
Speaker 1: It was not my plan, but some of the best
Speaker 1: years of my life. It happened in New Bell. Looking back, Lord,
Speaker 1: boutin Alan you interrupted my life. Booting Alan, you changed
Speaker 1: my plan because my plan was just to go to
Speaker 1: the other town thirty minutes from the Enna planted church
Speaker 1: there and live a simple life, grow all there, plant
Speaker 1: a church.
Speaker 2: Kasan dan langyan.
Speaker 1: I will serve God faithfully bahamable effect have been learning Dumu.
Speaker 1: So God took me out of that small town, brought
Speaker 1: me a new belt. And because of that, I mean,
Speaker 1: God opened you so many doors. That's the reason why
Speaker 1: I was invited in Japan. I was invited in Dubai
Speaker 1: not because really because of me, but simply because I'm
Speaker 1: the youth pastor of the biggest campus ministry we have in.
Speaker 2: The Philippines, Victory Philippines.
Speaker 1: So Ahlandela expert Alagaho, can we invite you to speak
Speaker 1: to our church story. When I traveled to these places
Speaker 1: sadik gabundu make Japan Pala speak mangapubin shandula Uae never
Speaker 1: realized that. But it all happened when God changed the plan.
Speaker 1: And I praise God because these are things I never
Speaker 1: seen before. These are things that I've never planned. I
Speaker 1: complained about it before first year in you.
Speaker 2: It was hard.
Speaker 1: Because I don't know how to remute. I always write
Speaker 1: a taxi. First time, to cook my own food, wash
Speaker 1: my own clothes, paying my.
Speaker 2: Bills, all of these things.
Speaker 1: First year I experienced to go for fasting for three
Speaker 1: days because I ran out of money a spiritual and the.
Speaker 2: Fasting I brew in and budget. It was hard.
Speaker 1: At first I complained, Lord complained, anodito. But now again,
Speaker 1: looking back, Lord, thank you you brought me a new belt.
Speaker 2: How many of you know? God is wise? God is wise, I.
Speaker 1: Say fifty five, verse nine for us. The heavens are
Speaker 1: higher than the earth. So are my ways higher than
Speaker 1: your ways.
Speaker 2: And my thoughts than your thoughts.
Speaker 1: Again, your story is part of a bigger story. God
Speaker 1: is not just thinking about the wedding. God wants to
Speaker 1: use Mary to be part of God, God's plan of
Speaker 1: salvation for all of humanity. And I want you to
Speaker 1: know that Christmas is also a reminder for us that
Speaker 1: your life is part of God's plan of salvation. God
Speaker 1: wants your family to be saved. God wants the people
Speaker 1: in your workplace and your campus and your community to
Speaker 1: be saved.
Speaker 2: And guess whom God will use. Tell the person sait
Speaker 2: it next to you. You You're part of a bigger story.
Speaker 1: I want to end with this last one and the
Speaker 1: word God's promise, God's promise. I like Mary's response and
Speaker 1: verse thirty eight, and Mary said behold, I am the
Speaker 1: servant of the Lord. Let it be to me according
Speaker 1: to your word. Mary said, yes, mis crupnil is Cruplanglord,
Speaker 1: if this is your will, I'm trusting that you know
Speaker 1: better than me. And if this is your promise, I'm
Speaker 1: willing to embrace it. Mary said yes, because she knew
Speaker 1: God can be trusted.
Speaker 2: God is not only good in.
Speaker 1: Giving promises, He's equally good and fulfilling them. Be it
Speaker 1: onto me according to your word. If this is your plan,
Speaker 1: if this is your promise, I know.
Speaker 2: You can pull it off. Unlike us, sometimes we give promises.
Speaker 2: How many of you have broken some of your promises?
Speaker 1: My promise, God, if I experienced that from time to
Speaker 1: time with my kids, I will make a promise.
Speaker 2: Swimming time tomorrow, taps tomorrow, mull you know, swiming and swiming.
Speaker 2: Tell you so.
Speaker 1: My intention is good, but I have limitations. I have
Speaker 1: good intention, but I have limitations. So even though I
Speaker 1: want to fulfill the promise, sometimes I can't.
Speaker 2: But how many of you are great? For God is
Speaker 2: not like us. When God makes a promise, he is
Speaker 2: able to do it because God is not only willing.
Speaker 2: God is able. Amen, I mean have you believe God
Speaker 2: is able to give you what he has promised.
Speaker 1: God is not only full of good intention. God is
Speaker 1: able to fulfill his promise. He's a promise keeping. God
Speaker 1: is not only a promise giver, He's also a promise keeper.
Speaker 1: And when God says it, he will do it. The
Speaker 1: plan may change, but the promise will never change. So
Speaker 1: a promise more, I will have a I will have a.
Speaker 2: Partner in life. My word the Old Lord Genesis too.
Speaker 2: It is not good for a man to be alone.
Speaker 1: Then I got engaged, and then we got disengaged. For
Speaker 1: to Mama natalup. You know sometimes that can happen. But
Speaker 1: don't confuse God's plan with God's because the plan may change,
Speaker 1: but the promise will stay the same. God is a
Speaker 1: promise keeping God. I don't know how God has interrupted
Speaker 1: your life, but I know he has. I don't know
Speaker 1: what the next interruption is or when it will be,
Speaker 1: but I'm sure it's going to come. But when God
Speaker 1: interrupts your life, when God changed the plan, I want
Speaker 1: you to remember these three things first, that it will
Speaker 1: be troubling, it might be scary, but it will be
Speaker 1: better for you, and in the long run, it will
Speaker 1: be better for everybody, because your story is part of
Speaker 1: a bigger story.
Speaker 2: It's not just about you.
Speaker 1: It's all about God and his purposes, and it will
Speaker 1: be a blessing and will benefit many people, not just you.
Speaker 2: Amen. Can we just pray right now?
Speaker 1: The Bible says, be still, and you will know He
Speaker 1: is God. Lord, I thank you for assuring us. Thank
Speaker 1: you for assuring us that you're a promise keeping God.
Speaker 1: Thank you for comforting us. Lord that life may not
Speaker 1: happen the way we plan it to be, but we
Speaker 1: thank you, Lord God, that you always have something better
Speaker 1: in store for us. Lord, I pray, like Mary, if
Speaker 1: there's anything in our life that is off limits that
Speaker 1: we're not allowing you to change, We're not allowing your interruption.
Speaker 1: I pray today our hearts will be softened before you,
Speaker 1: and I pray, like Mary, we will open our life
Speaker 1: and will allow you to interrupt our plans in our lives. Lord,
Speaker 1: we pray today, Lord, we pray have your way in
Speaker 1: Jesus Na. If there's anything you want to change, Lord,
Speaker 1: we pray.
Speaker 2: That you will do your will and you will do
Speaker 2: your ways. Lord, I pray we will have.
Speaker 1: The faith like Mary, help us, Lord, God, help us
Speaker 1: to have the faith to trust you that your intention
Speaker 1: is good, that you know what's best for us, that
Speaker 1: we don't have to be afraid that you are always
Speaker 1: accomplishing something good in our lives. Lord, Thank you God
Speaker 1: for assuring us that regardless of where we are right now,
Speaker 1: whatever is going on with our life, we can worship you.
Speaker 1: We can celebrate, we can rejoice, we can look forward
Speaker 1: to the future with enthusiasm and faith because you are
Speaker 1: with us and we have everything we need in this
Speaker 1: season of our lives to honor you and to accomplish
Speaker 1: your purpose.
