18
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:22,300
Here's father, jernard, a came 
across a sign selling at Walmart

19
00:01:22,500 --> 00:01:27,400
and the sign was titled think. 
And then underneath it would 

20
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,800
State before you speak and there
was an acronym. 

21
00:01:29,900 --> 00:01:35,300
Mm, for think the tea was, is it
true? 

22
00:01:35,300 --> 00:01:37,600
And their ages? 
Is it helpful? 

23
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:42,800
And the eyes is it inspiring? 
The N is, is it necessary? 

24
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:48,100
And the cage stated is a kind, I
actually use this acronym during

25
00:01:48,100 --> 00:01:53,300
a sermon, many many, many moons 
ago when I was talking about 

26
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:59,700
thinking, thinking is an 
integral action or aspect of our

27
00:01:59,700 --> 00:02:01,500
daily. 
He lives, you know, the first 

28
00:02:01,500 --> 00:02:05,700
thing I do when I open my eyes. 
Yes. 

29
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:10,000
I purposely said the first 
think, and not the first thing, 

30
00:02:10,300 --> 00:02:14,100
but the first thing I do before,
as soon as I open my eyes, when 

31
00:02:14,100 --> 00:02:19,700
I wake up, is my mind begins to 
work full speed and I'm thinking

32
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,100
of what's install, what I need 
to do? 

33
00:02:24,100 --> 00:02:32,200
What I have lacked in doing, 
what is Awaiting me for the day,

34
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:37,100
what is installed for the day? 
And, and the mind starts working

35
00:02:37,100 --> 00:02:40,100
and we begin to think. 
And I start to think, you know, 

36
00:02:40,900 --> 00:02:44,200
and and I think as I Was 
preparing this message, you 

37
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:50,900
know, I thought to myself that 
that a thief would think of his 

38
00:02:50,900 --> 00:02:56,300
or her next theft. 
A murderer will think of his of 

39
00:02:56,300 --> 00:03:01,700
her next victim, adrak addict, 
will think Of his or her next 

40
00:03:01,700 --> 00:03:06,000
shoot or shoot up or next fix. 
I think they say, you know, the 

41
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:11,300
cop, the lawyer, the doctor, the
architect, the CPA, the the end,

42
00:03:11,300 --> 00:03:17,400
the everyone thinks of what 
pertains to their daily lives. 

43
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,600
A worldly person, one who is 
living in the world and is of 

44
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:26,400
the world because we all live in
the world that many of us are 

45
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,900
not off the world, we don't 
conform to the patterns of the 

46
00:03:28,908 --> 00:03:32,700
world, but the person that is 
worldly and is conforming to the

47
00:03:32,700 --> 00:03:37,400
pants of the world will think of
what the world deems important. 

48
00:03:37,700 --> 00:03:42,100
This is what will go through his
or her mind, how to impress, how

49
00:03:42,100 --> 00:03:47,100
to attract, how to go with the 
flow, How To Succeed, how to 

50
00:03:47,100 --> 00:03:52,300
dress to Go to attract social 
media in person and what have 

51
00:03:52,300 --> 00:03:57,400

But a Christian Who is defined 

52
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:05,800
as a Christ, loving, honoring 
worshiping obeying reflecting 

53

baptized in the name of the Holy

00:04:11,300 --> 00:04:15,700
Trinity received the gift of the
Holy Spirit. 

55
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,600
At the hands of the priest, by 
the power vested in the 

56
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:25,000
priesthood of the church. and 
who has been adopted as a child 

57
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:33,200
of God has to think otherwise 
beloved A Christian whom I 

58
00:04:34,700 --> 00:04:39,400
described is one who is obedient
to the holy scriptures. 

59
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:45,200
And one that will make every 
attempt by the grace and power 

60
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:52,600
of God to live a live thinking 
of what is favorable with God. 

61
00:04:52,700 --> 00:04:59,100
Pondering meditating on what is 
appeasing pleasing to God in 

62
00:04:59,100 --> 00:05:03,000
every actions in every aspects 
of the daily life. 

63
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:10,000
And what we need to meditate and
think about as Christians now. 

64
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:15,200
Remember, Christians are not 
people that float in the air are

65
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:21,100
only mysteriously or mystically,
you know, present in the world. 

66
00:05:21,100 --> 00:05:24,300
Know they are physically. 
We are physical people. 

67
00:05:24,900 --> 00:05:28,400
Living in this world. 
That means we work. 

68
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,300
We plan. 
We execute our plans. 

69
00:05:32,700 --> 00:05:37,700
We live our daily lives. 
But a Christian must at all 

70
00:05:37,700 --> 00:05:42,500
times during his life on Earth 
think of what Paul States. 

71
00:05:42,500 --> 00:05:50,200
Quite clearly in Philippians 
4:8, 4:8 meditate Paul says, or 

72
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:55,000
think of a Ponder on these 
things that are true. 

73
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:02,900
Those things that are honorable,
those that are righteous, those 

74
00:06:02,900 --> 00:06:07,300
things that are pure, those 
things that are precious and 

75
00:06:07,300 --> 00:06:13,500
those things that are 
praiseworthy Deeds of glory and 

76
00:06:13,500 --> 00:06:17,300
of Praise, those things that are
true. 

77
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,700
What is true in a Christian 
faith? 

78
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,900
What is the truth that we live? 
By that, when we wake up in the 

79
00:06:24,900 --> 00:06:30,600
morning we live in the truth 
that Jesus Christ, Our Lord, our

80
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:35,800
King, Our Savior, our life giver
and the forgiver of our sins is 

81
00:06:36,100 --> 00:06:40,200
the Son of God. 
Definite article must always be 

82
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,700
present that. 
Jesus Christ is the son of God. 

83
00:06:45,900 --> 00:06:50,200
And all that goes with that, 
great and marvelous and gracious

84
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:55,300
news. 
Jesus in John chapter, 16 tells 

85
00:06:55,300 --> 00:06:59,300
us the Holy Spirit, which we 
celebrate that this end of the 

86
00:06:59,300 --> 00:07:03,700
Holy Spirit, which we celebrate,
we celebrated yesterday, or on 

87
00:07:03,700 --> 00:07:07,400
Sunday of Pentecost, one of the 
works of the holy spirit is to 

88
00:07:07,700 --> 00:07:11,900
guide us in all the truth and 
st. 

89
00:07:11,900 --> 00:07:16,700
Paul, expands and instructs, 
that we must meditate on that. 

90
00:07:16,700 --> 00:07:19,900
Truth, the truth of Jesus 
Christ. 

91
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,100
Our Lord and our savior, The 
first thing on our minds 

92
00:07:24,100 --> 00:07:29,100
beloved, when we wake up, as 
soon as we open our eyes, we 

93
00:07:29,100 --> 00:07:31,600
must think of Jesus Christ, Our 
Lord. 

94
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:36,000
We Must Praise Jesus Christ. 
Our Lord, you know, when I get 

95
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,600
out of the bed, I do the sign of
my cross of the Trinity and I 

96
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,100
Praise Jesus Christ. 
Praise be to your name, my Lord,

97
00:07:43,100 --> 00:07:47,900
and My Savior Jesus Christ. 
So as soon as you wake up, you 

98
00:07:47,900 --> 00:07:51,400
remember, Jesus Christ. 
You know whether you wake up on 

99
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:56,100
the right side on the wrong side
of the bed, you remember the 

100
00:07:56,100 --> 00:07:59,200
Lord Jesus Christ. 
I'm going to talk about that a 

101
00:07:59,208 --> 00:08:02,100
little bit more. 
And then Paul goes on to say, 

102
00:08:02,300 --> 00:08:06,600
think of what he's honorable, 
when our thoughts are true, that

103
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,900
means our thoughts, our 
meditation. 

104
00:08:08,900 --> 00:08:12,200
Our thinking is that Jesus 
Christ. 

105
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,500
Is the Son of God. 
My savior, my Lord. 

106
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:20,000
My king, my life giver and the 
forgiver of a, my of my sins. 

107
00:08:20,500 --> 00:08:25,200
It is naturally, followed that 
everything that I think of will 

108
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,800
be. 
Honorable, our thoughts will be 

109
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:34,500
ethical. 
Respectable pure moral because 

110
00:08:34,500 --> 00:08:38,700
when you think of Jesus Christ, 
all the attributes of Our Lord 

111
00:08:38,799 --> 00:08:44,300
are in mind as well. 
And The Honorable things that we

112
00:08:44,300 --> 00:08:50,200
are to think of other external 
out external virtues our 

113
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:54,800
qualities. 
When the truth of the Lord is in

114
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,600
your mind and you Ponder on that
and you meditate on that. 

115
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,300
Any think about that? 
And as I said, the first thing 

116
00:09:00,300 --> 00:09:05,700
in the morning, then it's 
common, that your virtues, your 

117
00:09:05,700 --> 00:09:10,000
Deeds, your actions, your 
qualities will be honorable as 

118
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,700
well, because we will begin to 
imitate our Lord and our Savior.

119
00:09:14,700 --> 00:09:19,000
Jesus Christ. 
Saint Paul instructs as us to 

120
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,200
imitate him. 
Why? 

121
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,400
Because he Imitates. 
Jesus Christ. 

122
00:09:25,700 --> 00:09:28,100
And Paul goes on to say, think 
of those things that are 

123
00:09:28,100 --> 00:09:31,300
righteous. 
Meaning, what is true? 

124
00:09:31,700 --> 00:09:37,300
What is Honorable is righteous 
is just what is true, which is 

125
00:09:37,700 --> 00:09:41,200
Jesus Christ. 
Is the Son of God, the Son of 

126
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:45,100
God, it is. 
Honorable, at the same time, we 

127
00:09:45,100 --> 00:09:48,300
need to honor this son of God 
and that is righteousness. 

128
00:09:48,300 --> 00:09:55,100
That is just, it is Justified, 
it is acceptable by who by God. 

129
00:09:55,500 --> 00:09:59,600
Heavenly Creator. 
What is justified by God? 

130
00:09:59,700 --> 00:10:04,900
Is obviously then pure and there
is no blemish to be found in it.

131
00:10:06,100 --> 00:10:13,100
Think of those things that are 
pure pure to the soul, Purity, 

132

00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:19,600
can take away from the glory of 
God, know when we do something 

159
00:12:19,700 --> 00:12:22,700
that is right, that is true, 
that is Honorable because 

160
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,200
Thinking about it and it's been 
justified by God and which 

161
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:30,000
brings us to Purity and then it 
brings us to praiseworthy. 

162
00:12:30,300 --> 00:12:34,100
Then God is automatically 
glorified in you, meaning, you 

163
00:12:34,300 --> 00:12:39,300
are glorifying God to yourself 
within yourself with others by 

164
00:12:39,300 --> 00:12:41,500
what you do that is 
praiseworthy. 

165
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,400
So it'd be admirably attractive 
to men. 

166
00:12:46,700 --> 00:12:50,500
But what we do is to be 
praiseworthy, that means to 

167
00:12:50,500 --> 00:12:54,500
glorify our God. 
Everything that we do, think 

168
00:12:54,500 --> 00:12:56,800
about it. 
What is it that you are doing 

169
00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,800
right at this moment? 
What do you do when you wake up 

170
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:06,500
in the morning, during your 
spare time at work at home, 

171
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,800
while you're taking care of the 
kids, while you're cleaning, 

172
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,800
while you're preparing the food 
for for the husband, and the 

173
00:13:13,808 --> 00:13:16,700
children to come home, to 
whatever you may be doing right 

174
00:13:16,700 --> 00:13:19,100
at this moment. 
Maybe there is a group of men 

175
00:13:19,100 --> 00:13:22,700
and women are listening to this 
podcast right at this moment. 

176
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:27,400
It's your thoughts are where 
they should be, are with the 

177
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,300
Lord Jesus Christ and His holy 
scriptures. 

178
00:13:30,700 --> 00:13:33,900
But what happens after this 
podcast has ended. 

179
00:13:34,900 --> 00:13:36,600
What do you do when you gather 
together? 

180
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:41,900
But there's no podcast just for 
a coffee or just to engage in in

181
00:13:41,900 --> 00:13:44,800
communication in talk. 
What are you talk? 

182
00:13:45,500 --> 00:13:48,300
What you do? 
Does it glorify the Lord? 

183
00:13:48,300 --> 00:13:50,600
Jesus Christ. 
What you are doing? 

184
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:55,100
What you reflect in your act. 
T' is a truly reflecting. 

185
00:13:55,100 --> 00:13:58,600
Your thoughts that should be on 
what is true and what is 

186
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:02,000
righteous, and what is pure, if 
not? 

187
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:06,800
Well, as I always say, it's not 
the end of the world yet, if 

188
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,200
not. 
Well, we need to correct. 

189
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,800
We need to admit. 
First mean to come to that 

190
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,200
realization. 
That do we received? 

191
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,800
We accept these words are we 
agreeing with these words? 

192
00:14:18,900 --> 00:14:24,000
Are we are we are acknowledging 
that this is the true and the 

193
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,700
righteous path of Christianity, 
if yes. 

194
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:33,700
Well, admit that I have fallen 
away, or I, you know, I'm I'm 

195
00:14:33,700 --> 00:14:36,000
flawed. 
My actions, show the floor nurse

196
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,000
in, in my thinking, what do you 
do? 

197
00:14:39,100 --> 00:14:42,800
Then you stand up. 
You as I say, dust yourself off 

198
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,000
and You Begin The Walk of 
righteousness. 

199
00:14:45,700 --> 00:14:50,100
You try to take your mind. 
Your own control. 

200
00:14:50,100 --> 00:14:53,500
Not what the world, how the 
world controls it. 

201
00:14:53,500 --> 00:14:56,700
Beloved not. 
How Hollywood controls it? 

202
00:14:56,900 --> 00:14:59,200
Not how social media controls 
it? 

203
00:14:59,300 --> 00:15:03,600
Not have Tick-Tock of Facebook 
or SnapChat, or, or Twitter, or 

204
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,700
Instagram control. 
It know, you control your 

205
00:15:06,700 --> 00:15:09,100
thoughts and, you know, it do 
with those thoughts. 

206
00:15:11,100 --> 00:15:15,300
Colossians 3:2. 
Think of that, which is on high 

207
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:20,400
and not of that on Earth. 
In other words, set your minds 

208
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:25,100
on the things that are about. 
Let your minds be above, is one 

209
00:15:25,100 --> 00:15:27,800
of the instructions in the, in 
the celebration of the Divine 

210
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,200
Liturgy of holding porbandar, 
the Eucharist Allah will never 

211
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,700
would but icon, which is from 
the scriptures. 

212
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,400
Let your mind be a bath 
contemplate. 

213
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:42,500
Meditate think of what is about 
Is above heaven, the Throne of 

214
00:15:42,500 --> 00:15:49,100
God, the Angels praising, the 
Lord unceasingly, holy holy holy

215
00:15:49,100 --> 00:15:55,300
are you had eesh bodies Cadiz 
Mary Allah, your minds to be 

216
00:15:55,300 --> 00:15:59,900
above where God is sitting 
enthroned on his glorious. 

217
00:15:59,900 --> 00:16:04,000
Throne, our Lord, and our Savior
Jesus Christ, at the right hand 

218
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,800
of the father, meaning the 
righteousness of the power, the 

219
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:12,800
fullness of the father, And that
he can see from heaven on Earth.

220
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:16,000
He knows everything. 
He is everywhere, he can do 

221
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:23,100
everything, and he is expecting 
for his children. to set their 

222
00:16:23,100 --> 00:16:29,500
minds at his feet and to ponder 
on what he is, pleased with what

223
00:16:29,500 --> 00:16:36,100
appeases him Very simple, think 
of what is on high and not, what

224
00:16:36,100 --> 00:16:38,900
is on the earth? 
Saint, John. 

225
00:16:38,900 --> 00:16:41,000
Chrysostom comments on this and 
rights. 

226
00:16:41,300 --> 00:16:46,100
Change your thoughts from Earth 
to Heaven, from visible things. 

227
00:16:46,100 --> 00:16:53,400
To those that are Unseen. 
Keep in mind, always he keep in 

228
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,900
mind, think about this. 
When you wake up in the morning,

229
00:16:56,900 --> 00:17:00,000
when you, when you go on your, 
you know, your lunch break or 

230
00:17:00,008 --> 00:17:04,300
your break at work or your you 
sit at your desk at work or 

231
00:17:04,300 --> 00:17:05,500
well. 
Now, everyone's working from 

232
00:17:05,500 --> 00:17:08,500
home or you're in the kind, 
you're driving, you know, before

233
00:17:08,599 --> 00:17:12,300
before you get in that car and 
you hit the Blaster, the Techno,

234
00:17:12,300 --> 00:17:15,000
and the rappin. 
And I think these are all old 

235
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:19,500
style music, last even music and
the, you know, pertaining to 

236
00:17:19,500 --> 00:17:21,900
swearing and cussing and, and 
murdering. 

237
00:17:21,900 --> 00:17:26,500
And, and, you know, I don't want
to go on because this Podcast is

238
00:17:26,700 --> 00:17:31,400
for the glorification of God. 
Why don't you just wait for a 

239
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,400
second? 
Give yourself a minute or two 

240
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,500
and think about God and thank 
God. 

241
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:41,100
When you pray, when you wake up 
in the morning and you pray, ask

242
00:17:41,100 --> 00:17:46,800
the Lord to help you, to bind 
your thoughts, to capture your 

243
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,600
thoughts and to place them at 
his own feet. 

244
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:54,600
So that at all times, you're 
thinking of what would God want?

245
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,200
What would God? 
I'd do. 

246
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,100
What would god? 
What is God, seeing? 

247
00:17:59,300 --> 00:18:05,100
How will God react? 
And keeping in mind beloved to 

248
00:18:05,100 --> 00:18:09,600
have that communication with the
lord always when we pray and, 

249
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,000
you know, I've always mentioned,
praise, not just coming to 

250
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,500
church and falling on the on the
ground at the pews or on a 

251
00:18:15,500 --> 00:18:19,200
Sunday or, you know, just the 
church service at any moment. 

252
00:18:19,700 --> 00:18:24,200
After this podcast, you can 
switch off your medium. 

253
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:28,700
And you can say a quick prayer, 
Lord, Jesus Christ. 

254
00:18:28,900 --> 00:18:34,900
You are the Son of God, I am a 
Sinner have mercy on me, take my

255
00:18:34,900 --> 00:18:38,400
thoughts in your hands, Lord, 
keep him there, let me always 

256
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:43,800
meditate on your commands, your 
statues, your words, and let me 

257
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,900
add all-time glorify you. 
And please you, as I walk on 

258
00:18:47,900 --> 00:18:52,300
this Earth and I live in this 
world, I am going to be in this 

259
00:18:52,300 --> 00:18:54,700
world. 
Lord, I do not ask that, you 

260
00:18:54,700 --> 00:18:59,000
take me away from this world if 
it's not your time in your will 

261
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,100
I ask that you keep me in this 
world is what Jesus Christ. 

262
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,000
Prayed for his disciples. 
I'm not asking father that you 

263
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,300
take him out from this world 
because who's going to go and 

264
00:19:07,300 --> 00:19:10,900
preach the good news? 
Lord, I don't want to be taken 

265
00:19:10,900 --> 00:19:13,500
out of this world. 
How can I reflect you if I'm not

266
00:19:13,500 --> 00:19:15,800
here. 
How can I preach your name? 

267
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:19,400
Your, Your Glory, your your 
power, your might, if I'm not on

268
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:23,400
this Earth but if it appeases 
you according to a perfect will 

269
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,100
and timing keep me on this 
Earth. 

270
00:19:25,100 --> 00:19:30,700
But Lord help me to always think
and meditate on you and you 

271
00:19:30,700 --> 00:19:35,700
alone. 
Because you are in full control.

272
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:42,000
Sometimes. 
We listened to the media. 

273
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,800
And again, the social medias. 
And the News, there's nothing 

274
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:46,900
positive. 
There's definitely nothing about

275
00:19:46,900 --> 00:19:50,700
God. 
And I think it's a way Satan 

276
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:55,500
tries to distract us and to move
our thoughts or way that God is 

277
00:19:55,500 --> 00:19:59,700
in full control. 
Beloved, when the disciples are 

278
00:19:59,700 --> 00:20:03,000
in the boat with Jesus Christ. 
And there was a storm that 

279
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:08,200
stone, the storm arose and they 
started panicking and and maybe 

280
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,900
mumbling and murmuring. 
What, what is he still asleep? 

281
00:20:10,900 --> 00:20:13,200
Connie. 
See that we are perishing here. 

282
00:20:14,300 --> 00:20:17,700
And Jesus, when you read the 
gospel in markets, very calmly, 

283
00:20:17,700 --> 00:20:22,100
stands up, wakes up, stands up 
and says why you fear and 

284
00:20:22,100 --> 00:20:26,800
commands to the ocean to be 
still regardless of what's going

285
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:30,200
on on Earth? 
The turmoil, the misery beloved 

286
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:35,100
Jesus Christ is on a throne and 
he's not moved and will not 

287
00:20:35,100 --> 00:20:37,200
Shake. 
Yeah. 

288
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,000
The term we use in the Aramaic 
language for God is Maria 

289
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:43,200
Alejandra. 
I could call Lord God who holds 

290
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:47,600
everything the power and glory 
and might and Majesty, our knees

291
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:51,700
hands. 
Keep in mind that he is with us.

292
00:20:52,300 --> 00:20:54,600
He will never leave us nor 
forsake us. 

293
00:20:55,000 --> 00:21:00,200
What we need to do is to keep 
our minds and our thoughts on 

294
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:05,700
him and him alone, to please him
to, please him alone to glorify 

295
00:21:05,700 --> 00:21:10,600
him to A fight him alone. 
Praise be to his name now and at

296
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,300
all times and forever and ever. 
Amen. 

297
