1
00:00:01,600 --> 00:00:05,440
Hey man, someone say man, look 
at your neighbor and say you 

2
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:10,120
look good now don't lie, don't 
lie, Amen. 

3
00:00:10,120 --> 00:00:13,560
You look good tonight, Amen. 
I'd have each one of you, those 

4
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:16,440
that are able to be here, glad 
to have Sabrina and Manny, Amen 

5
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:19,120
with us tonight, Amen. 
In the House of the Lord, so 

6
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,640
grateful for them, such a great 
couple, Amen. 

7
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:23,640
Love and appreciate them. 
Amen. 

8
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:28,240
This evening, brother Alex. 
Every every month we have, 

9
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:30,160
there's a group of us that get 
together. 

10
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:31,760
It's called a calendar touch 
point. 

11
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:35,120
And we basically look at what's 
left in the month and like two 

12
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,320
months ahead of stuff that's on 
the calendar that we might have 

13
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,680
planned a year ago. 
Because we do a planning session

14
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,280
in usually February, toward the 
end of February. 

15
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:48,080
We plan out a year and such. 
And so we look at things and 

16
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:49,760
just see if there's anything we 
need to be aware of. 

17
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:52,520
And so the last planning 
session, we realized that it's 

18
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,440
the fourth Sunday of the month. 
Brother Alex was going to be 

19
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,840
ministering the word and 
realizing his mom and dad's 

20
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,360
going to be gone too, which is 
music, which makes music going 

21
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,200
to be on him. 
And I looked at him like, you 

22
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,920
know, is this a problem? 
Because I can, you know, step in

23
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:06,880
or whatever. 
He's like, no, it's OK, we got 

24
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:07,960
this. 
So and so forth. 

25
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:12,480
And so praise God, you know, 
praise God, Amen. 

26
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,320
So he's been playing and singing
all day. 

27
00:01:14,320 --> 00:01:16,360
And then he's also going to 
minister tonight. 

28
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,720
He has already told us this is 
going to be a little 

29
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,840
unconventional, just kind of 
like not the norm. 

30
00:01:22,320 --> 00:01:26,160
And so I think he's going to 
talk to us from right there with

31
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,800
reason and purpose. 
So let's just follow Amen. 

32
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,160
What the Lord may have Amen here
tonight. 

33
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,000
Amen. 
Will you do that Amen. 

34
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,040
Will you do that God, we love 
you tonight. 

35
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,560
God we glorify you that you will
be done in Jesus name. 

36
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:49,960
It's. 
Not something that I would ever 

37
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:54,000
thought would be done per SE. 
It's still ministry, but it's 

38
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:58,080
feels weird. 
I did have something to preach 

39
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:05,920
this week and Tuesday something 
came to my mind and felt led to 

40
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:13,400
lead us to recognize and focus 
on music. 

41
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,840
Now tonight, I'm not here to 
tell you what you should or 

42
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,520
should not listen to. 
What I'm telling you tonight is 

43
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:27,680
I want you to understand the 
power of music in the sense of 

44
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:34,000
drawing nearer unto God. 
And maybe this is something that

45
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,320
is more foreign to you. 
Maybe you don't listen to a 

46
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,960
whole lot of music. 
I myself, my wife and I listen 

47
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:44,080
to a lot of music and I know you
may say, well, you guys are 

48
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:49,200
singers and musicians, but we 
are called to worship. 

49
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,640
Called to worship doesn't always
have to be in song, but most 

50
00:02:53,640 --> 00:02:58,040
commonly it is in song. 
More music is more than just 

51
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:02,920
melodies and and harmonies. 
It's a way that that God can 

52
00:03:02,920 --> 00:03:09,320
speak to us and, and throughout 
our lives, there's just songs 

53
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,200
that will mark journeys in our 
life. 

54
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,720
They'll mark very, very 
important times in our life. 

55
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:20,160
And they remind us of God's 
faithfulness or, or that that 

56
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,040
can help us find hope, help us 
find things. 

57
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:27,520
When when things get tough, we 
can draw back to that and we go 

58
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,280
back to that and it's like we're
back in that situation or it's 

59
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,160
like we're back in the sun 
again. 

60
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:37,040
And I called this songs of life 
because I didn't know what else 

61
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:38,920
to call it. 
But throughout my life, there 

62
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:43,680
are just times that I will 
listen to one song a lot, maybe 

63
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:48,400
a grouping of songs. 
And it it always ends up having 

64
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,480
a theme. 
Somehow, some way, it ends up 

65
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,120
having a theme that highlights 
what I'm going through or what 

66
00:03:55,120 --> 00:04:01,160
I'm lacking or what I need. 
God and, and it's in those 

67
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,200
times, those songs of life that 
I can sense his comfort, I can 

68
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:09,560
sense his love and there's the 
messages of the song speak to me

69
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,920
not only not only just on 
intellect, but on emotional and 

70
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:18,279
spiritual level. 
And, and these these themes, 

71
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,440
they bring us in. 
They take it when when it really

72
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:28,040
began, where music really began 
as heaven, when we worship and 

73
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:33,840
reverence to music with music 
unto God, we are doing something

74
00:04:33,840 --> 00:04:40,800
heavenly in in Job 38, it's 
verses 4 through 7, it talks 

75
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,040
about God speaking to Job. 
He says where were you when I 

76
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,640
laid the earth's foundation? 
And he says, while the morning 

77
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:54,960
stars sang together and all the 
angels shouted for joy, this 

78
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:59,400
passage reveals to us that music
in the form of the morning stars

79
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,640
was singing. 
And it's as if God's creation 

80
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:07,320
began to began with a Symphony. 
It began with a Symphony. 

81
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,920
And it's a cosmic celebration of
his power and glory. 

82
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,920
And, and in a sense, we visually
see music. 

83
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,840
The beauty of things that we see
on this earth is poetry. 

84
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,640
And we look at it and we're in 
awe. 

85
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,880
And I, I call that music because
it's heavenly. 

86
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:29,000
It is beauty beyond what we 
could think with our own mortal 

87
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:36,080
minds until we actually see it. 
And music, music on earth is 

88
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,680
just an echo. 
It can be an echo. 

89
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:42,480
What happens in heaven and, and 
when we sing and we worship, 

90
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,920
we're not just, we're just not 
making the melodies. 

91
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,800
We are participating in 
something much bigger. 

92
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:52,680
And Revelation five and eight, 
it says it gives us a vision of 

93
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,800
heavenly worship. 
It gives us a vision where the 

94
00:05:55,840 --> 00:06:00,920
elders and the angels are bowing
and singing a new song around 

95
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,560
God's throne and he's declare. 
They're declaring his 

96
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,280
worthiness. 
They're declaring he is great 

97
00:06:06,280 --> 00:06:09,400
and he is holy. 
And it shows that music has 

98
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:15,280
always been central to worship 
of God and his presence in it. 

99
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,040
But it's not just the spiritual 
aspect that makes music 

100
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,160
powerful. 
There's a there's a very natural

101
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:24,600
aspect to this that we don't 
think about very often. 

102
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:28,240
There's a profound connection 
between music and our minds. 

103
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,040
Music is very powerful. 
And I think because it's 

104
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:38,800
heavenly, that's why it has such
an impact on us emotionally, 

105
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:43,120
mentally, physically, 
spiritually. 

106
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,280
And, and there's a profound 
connection. 

107
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,080
There's research at Harvard, 
there was an article I read 

108
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,320
years back and I had to go find 
it again. 

109
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,680
But the article talks a little 
bit about what happens in the 

110
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:58,760
brain when, when you listen to 
music or even sing and, and, and

111
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:02,080
play music. 
And more often than not, what 

112
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,400
they were finding the common 
thread was that when someone 

113
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:10,000
was, was just listening to 
someone talk, right, more than 

114
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,640
often than not, it's more of 
the, the part portion of the 

115
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,720
brain that follows logic and 
listening to someone trying to 

116
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,320
make decisions. 
More often than not when it came

117
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:26,360
to music, listening, singing, 
playing, the the emotion center 

118
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:31,320
of the brain is on a higher 
functioning level and it is 

119
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:35,680
activated so much higher. 
And I believe that is because it

120
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:39,360
connects us. 
It connects us with something. 

121
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,680
And when we decide that that 
something's going to be God, 

122
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:47,080
that can be very powerful. 
It can be very powerful to 

123
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,040
decide to connect ourselves with
God. 

124
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,800
It can, it can very 
realistically, it can reduce 

125
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,720
stress. 
Have you ever just heard a good 

126
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,520
feel good song and you just, you
feel happy afterwards, You just 

127
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,640
feel. 
And then the other, the other 

128
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,040
side of the coin, you listen to 
a very sad song and now you have

129
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,680
to turn on a, a really happy 
song because you're sad. 

130
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:12,240
Studies show that certain type 
of music can help lower cortisol

131
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:17,560
levels, which is our body stress
hormone and and it helps us feel

132
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:21,600
more relaxed, more focused. 
Some of us when we study, maybe 

133
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,800
we turn on some music, maybe 
there's a certain playlist for 

134
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,840
focusing, certain playlist for 
worship, certain playlist for 

135
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:32,240
prayer, So many different things
that we can glean and glean from

136
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,559
beyond that music is a bridge 
between mind and spirit. 

137
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,039
And when we worship through 
music, we're not just engaging 

138
00:08:41,039 --> 00:08:43,679
our emotions. 
We're we're aligning our whole 

139
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:48,160
being, body, mind and soul with 
God's presence and his purpose. 

140
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,320
I just, I sit in it all 
sometimes when I listen to a 

141
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:59,920
song and it just gets me and I, 
I again, that emotion center. 

142
00:08:59,920 --> 00:09:03,640
I'm not a naturally emotional 
person, but you get a good song 

143
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:07,720
in front of me and I just sit 
there and all, all I can do is 

144
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:12,560
just just sit and maybe, maybe 
weep, maybe just understanding 

145
00:09:12,560 --> 00:09:17,680
the the depth and the breadth of
what is being sung, the words of

146
00:09:17,680 --> 00:09:19,960
the song. 
See, we listen to so many songs 

147
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,280
and we we hear so many songs 
during worship sets over and 

148
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,520
over again and can feel like the
same old thing. 

149
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:30,600
We know the words of the song 
now and so we sing it and it's 

150
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,440
on the screen and we have that 
help. 

151
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:38,760
Then we lose the meaning. 
When you're listening to a song 

152
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:43,080
for the first time, you're 
focusing intently on the words. 

153
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,640
There have been times I've 
listened to the song and it was 

154
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,520
the first time, and I'm intently
listening to these words. 

155
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,920
And when I listen to them, it is
impacting me so powerfully. 

156
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:59,480
And as it becomes a habit, it 
becomes less and less impactful.

157
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:03,840
I can when I don't take the time
to focus on it. 

158
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:06,680
There's not going to be any 
words up there tonight. 

159
00:10:06,680 --> 00:10:10,400
I want you to listen. 
I want you to understand what's 

160
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:14,840
being sung. 
Just this First Samuel 1623, it 

161
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,800
talks. 
It describes how David's music 

162
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,480
gets soothed. 
Saul's troubled spirit. 

163
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:25,280
Music and worship could soothe 
your troubled soul. 

164
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,520
Music today can have a similar 
impact on us and and bringing us

165
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,240
comfort and drawing us in. 
That's why I'm here at the piano

166
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,000
today. 
I feel like I feel like maybe 

167
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,160
there's some of us. 
Maybe we don't listen to music 

168
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,600
on a regular basis. 
Maybe we don't listen to music 

169
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,120
that gives reverence to God on a
regular basis. 

170
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,280
And we wonder sometimes, well, 
why? 

171
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,400
Why this, why that, why there's 
so many things going on. 

172
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,920
I'm not saying it's always the 
case, but I'm telling you one 

173
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,360
thing for sure. 
When you have music in your life

174
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,760
and it gives reverence to God, 
you're going to have see a 

175
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,760
difference. 
You're going to feel comfort, 

176
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,520
you're going to feel love, 
you're going to see faithfulness

177
00:11:05,560 --> 00:11:08,000
throughout. 
You're going to bless his name 

178
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:12,280
on a regular basis. 
I believe music has the power to

179
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,360
change us. 
It has the power to heal us. 

180
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,680
It has the power to bring us 
closer to the heart of God. 

181
00:11:17,680 --> 00:11:20,400
And, and as we go through these 
songs, and I'm going to go 

182
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,280
through different themes of 
these song of songs. 

183
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,160
I don't care if you need to 
shout, you can shout if you need

184
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:31,480
to run, if you need to pace and 
walk, if you need to pray, if 

185
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,800
you want to stand in worship, if
you want to sit down at your 

186
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,680
seat at worship, if you need to 
come to an altar because 

187
00:11:36,680 --> 00:11:40,240
something is impacting you. 
I hope that something grabs your

188
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:46,960
heart tonight. 
Tonight is about worship. 

189
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,320
So I want you to focus on these 
words. 

190
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,480
I want you to focus on the 
meanings of these songs and 

191
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,000
maybe, just maybe, there might 
be something that you could get 

192
00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:00,160
out of it tonight. 
First thing I want to talk about

193
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,320
and I want to sing about is the 
theme of love. 

194
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:10,680
Love is both infinite and deeply
personal with God. 

195
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:17,800
Romans 8 and 38, it tells us 
that that nothing in all 

196
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:22,040
creation could separate us from 
His love, and it reminds us of 

197
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,760
its power and of its 
consistency. 

198
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:31,640
It is not fickle, it is 
consistent, and this love is 

199
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,080
also intimate. 
Psalms 139 one verse one and 

200
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,600
two. 
It shows us that that a God who 

201
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,640
knows our every thought and 
every moment. 

202
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,920
And these songs are about that 
relentless love, unwavering 

203
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:51,360
love, love that holds us when we
feel lost. 

204
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:58,200
It reminds us when we need to be
cherished and we need to feel 

205
00:12:58,200 --> 00:12:59,840
love. 
It reminds us that we are 

206
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:05,400
cherished not because of what we
do, but simply because we belong

207
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:09,560
to Him. 
And as we listen, let's allow 

208
00:13:09,560 --> 00:13:14,880
the words to remind us that we 
are loved in the of God's love. 

209
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,680
And so when I need to be 
reminded of God's love, I may 

210
00:13:17,680 --> 00:13:23,360
turn to songs like this. 
Song starts out like time after 

211
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:34,000
time after time I've been here, 
lie after lie after lie, tear 

212
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:41,320
after tear. 
And in spite of all my flaws, 

213
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:50,640
you say you love it all and I 
didn't learn it because I don't 

214
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:58,360
deserve it. 
Cycles of shame in hiding who I 

215
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:06,720
am created this place of 
brokenness in I'm in. 

216
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:16,720
It's deeper than I'm tall. 
You say you see it all and I 

217
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:24,880
can't undo it. 
My heart is wounded, but you 

218
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:29,560
have me in the earth. 
Do not believe me. 

219
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:36,240
How you found me. 
Your perfect love astounds me. 

220
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:41,360
Go over and over again. 
You don't give up. 

221
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:53,360
You're still chasing after me. 
Then finally I see your love is 

222
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:59,040
in the reminding us that his 
love is enough. 

223
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,000
And then when I need to be 
surrounded. 

224
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:09,640
And comforted by his love, I may
turn the songs like something 

225
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:14,240
along the lines of. 
Know you've heard. 

226
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:24,280
The stories. 
They all sound too good to be 

227
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:31,480
true. 
You've heard about a Mace called

228
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:43,520
home, but there doesn't seem to 
be one for you soon. 

229
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:54,120
One night you cry yourself and 
drift off to a distant dream. 

230
00:15:55,520 --> 00:16:06,240
Will takes you in. 
Everything changes. 

231
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:20,920
The loneliness ends and a new 
life begins when love takes you 

232
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:36,360
and says you belong here. 
A miracle starts with the beat 

233
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:43,760
of our hearts when a heart takes
you in. 

234
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:52,280
Gone through something that I 
maybe thought I'd gone too far. 

235
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:58,520
Maybe I need to be reminded just
how reckless it seems that God's

236
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,080
love is. 
And I may turn to all the. 

237
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:08,440
Old, never ending reckless love 
of God. 

238
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:11,680
Oh it. 
Chases. 

239
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:20,160
Me down fights till I follow 
leaves the 99 and I could earn 

240
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,760
it. 
I don't deserve it. 

241
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:31,120
Still you give yourself away. 
And all the overwhelming and 

242
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:35,440
never ending reckless love and 
God. 

243
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:43,440
There's no shadow you won't 
light up mountain you'll climb 

244
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:50,080
up coming after me. 
There's no wall You won't kick 

245
00:17:50,120 --> 00:17:54,600
down a lie you won't tear down 
coming after me. 

246
00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:01,080
There's no shadow you won't 
light up mountain you won't 

247
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:08,600
climb up coming after me. 
There's no wall you won't kick 

248
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:13,080
down a lie on set out coming 
after me. 

249
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:24,160
And after that reminds me, I can
also turn to something like like

250
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:31,480
the Song of You. 
See the side of me that no one 

251
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:39,160
else can see. 
You know the depths of me beyond

252
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:46,720
the surface thing. 
I cannot hide from your 

253
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:53,080
presence. 
You know my weaknesses and the 

254
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:54,880
Lord. 
You know my flaws. 

255
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:06,040
You see the unseen war with 
every impure thought, Yet I have

256
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:17,160
her hope in it all for you, each
beyond pray and afraid and give 

257
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:31,040
birth, sea and give birth, and 
you love me anyway. 

258
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:07,440
How boundless, how 
unconditional, how, how, how 

259
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:11,680
truly it is those things because
we, we forget sometimes and we, 

260
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,880
we have issues in those songs 
that speak to that love. 

261
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,000
It's a lie. 
Love that finds us where we are.

262
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:23,320
And unfortunately, sometimes we 
have to have faith because 

263
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,000
sometimes it's not going to be 
easy. 

264
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,840
And maybe we have to turn to 
faith and trust. 

265
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,720
Have to turn to faith and trust 
and healing, knowing that God's 

266
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,360
going to do what he said he's 
going to do. 

267
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,480
So we may turn the songs like I 
Trust. 

268
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:48,480
In God, my Savior, the one who 
will never fail. 

269
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:58,000
He will never fail. 
I trust in God. 

270
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:08,240
You might say you're the one who
will never fail. 

271
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:20,640
He will never fail. 
I sought the Lord and he heard 

272
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:25,480
and he answered. 
I sought the Lord and he heard. 

273
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:31,920
And he, Sir, I sought the Lord, 
and he heard and he answered. 

274
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,040
That's why I trust Him, that's 
why I trust Him. 

275
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:41,080
I've sought the Lord and he 
heard, and he answered. 

276
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:45,360
I sought the Lord, and he heard,
and he answered. 

277
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:50,000
I sought the Lord and he heard 
and he answered. 

278
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:57,200
That's why I trust Him. 
That's why I trust in God my 

279
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:04,560
Savior, the one who will never 
fail. 

280
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:18,560
He will never fail who have 
trust in God my Savior, the one 

281
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:32,640
who will never fail. 
He will never fall. 

282
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:40,560
I could go to let it be costly. 
Let it be constantly. 

283
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:47,560
You are most worthy. 
Most worthy. 

284
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:58,880
I'm holding back nothing. 
Let it peace you're most worthy,

285
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:12,000
most worthy Jesus, for all I 
bring and come there to all 

286
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:18,400
you've given me. 
I will not bring cost me nothing

287
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:27,280
counted the costs and I'm 
convinced you're still with 

288
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:33,200
everything. 
How will I bring it cost me 

289
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:49,040
nothing so when? 
I may turn to songs. 

290
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,320
It's about waiting because it's 
a part of it. 

291
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:59,680
It's a part of faith. 
I may go. 

292
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:07,600
Wait. 
On the Lord wait. 

293
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:20,880
On the Lord, wait on the Lord 
and renew. 

294
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:29,640
That I have to be reminded. 
Oh, he's ordering. 

295
00:24:33,360 --> 00:24:35,040
Maybe I'll insert myself into 
it. 

296
00:24:35,360 --> 00:24:39,360
He's. 
Ordering my step. 

297
00:24:41,160 --> 00:25:05,450
I've got away, I've got away. 
And he's ordering my steps. 

298
00:25:07,250 --> 00:25:22,690
She got away and I. 
May go to our flip stores that. 

299
00:25:23,010 --> 00:25:31,640
Have proved your faithfulness. 
Miracles my mind can't 

300
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:37,280
comprehend. 
And there is beauty in what I 

301
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:44,040
don't understand. 
Jesus you. 

302
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:51,480
Jesus you. 
I believe you're the wonder 

303
00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:56,200
working God. 
You're the wonder working God. 

304
00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:03,240
All the miracles I've seen, too 
good tonight believe. 

305
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:11,400
If I wonder where, King God, you
heal because you love All the 

306
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:16,880
miracles I've seen, Too good 
tonight believe. 

307
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:23,760
Too good tonight believe. 
Too good tonight, believe. 

308
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:33,680
I may go. 
I believed in miracles, Never 

309
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:40,560
thought that I'd be 1. 
You came and changed me, all for

310
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:47,200
your glory. 
Oh, I believed in miracles, 

311
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:53,200
Never thought that I'd be 1. 
You came and made me a 

312
00:26:54,160 --> 00:27:23,080
testimony. 
The. 

313
00:27:31,360 --> 00:27:36,720
Faith and trust in God is often 
going to lead us to moments 

314
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:41,960
where we see His grace at work. 
And it's in those times of 

315
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,960
waiting and hoping that His 
redemption and His love and His 

316
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:52,360
grace comes closer to us that 
these songs speak of grace and 

317
00:27:52,360 --> 00:27:55,280
of freedom and of 
transformation. 

318
00:27:55,280 --> 00:28:00,640
That comes when God's mercy 
meets us where we are in our 

319
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:06,680
moment of despair, reflecting on
His grace and His redemption. 

320
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,960
We sung it tonight. 
We could sing something like 

321
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:15,000
Lord You found me. 
You healed me. 

322
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:21,000
You've called me from the grave.
You gave me a real love. 

323
00:28:21,120 --> 00:28:26,240
I thank you, Jesus. 
You are my sins away. 

324
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:32,760
Oh, now that I believe it, like 
I'm forgiven, You came and set 

325
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:39,160
me free. 
That's what your mercy did for 

326
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,070
me. 
And maybe. 

327
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:47,920
We shout about it, what he's 
done. 

328
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,360
Maybe we shout and we do. 
Whoa. 

329
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:56,080
If I shout, know I'm shouting 
from a heart that's been washed 

330
00:28:56,160 --> 00:29:00,920
clean. 
If I run, know I'm running from 

331
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:04,200
a past it's been reading to the 
world. 

332
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:08,800
It might look crazy. 
There's just no telling what 

333
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:15,080
you're going to do. 
You know when Jesus gets old to 

334
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:22,760
you. 
So if I shout no, I'm shouting 

335
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:25,240
from my heart, it's been on 
clean. 

336
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,840
If I run, no. 
I'm learning from the past. 

337
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:34,760
It's been redeemed. 
Too early and I look crazy, but 

338
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:41,520
it's just no telling what you're
going to do in that moment. 

339
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:52,880
Jesus gets home. 
We could turn to Amazing Grace. 

340
00:29:53,480 --> 00:30:01,680
How sweet the sound that saying 
a rat like me. 

341
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:19,040
I once was lost, but now was. 
But now I my chains are gone. 

342
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:29,160
I've been set free. 
My God, my save your eyes ransom

343
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:35,520
me. 
And like a flood, his mercy 

344
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:44,640
rings. 
An ending of Earth days we could

345
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:56,870
go to I am redeem. 
You set me free. 

346
00:31:00,830 --> 00:31:06,870
So I'll take on these every 
chains, wipe away everything 

347
00:31:07,630 --> 00:31:13,350
because I know who I used to be 
Because I am redeemed. 

348
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:25,320
You said be free. 
So I'll take all these heavy 

349
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:32,240
chains off every state because 
I'm not who I used to be. 

350
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:46,480
I am redeemed 
and then that redemption 

351
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:48,760
acknowledged. 
That redemption and 

352
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:52,880
understanding what He did for 
us, what He's done for us 

353
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:58,120
through the highs and the lows, 
we can turn to something about 

354
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:04,760
worship and devotion. 
Get into a mode of worship and 

355
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:08,000
acknowledging His greatness, 
talking about how good He is, 

356
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,960
how what He's done and that He 
is the greatest. 

357
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:16,600
Talk about His name. 
And we could go, because of who 

358
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:26,400
you are, I give you glory. 
Because of who you are, I give 

359
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:35,000
you praise. 
Because of who you are, I will 

360
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:40,040
live my voice and say, Lord, I 
worship you. 

361
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:48,440
Because of who you are, Lord, I 
am worship you. 

362
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:56,600
Because who you are, Lord, I 
worship you. 

363
00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:11,160
Because who you are is in the 
name of Jesus wonderful, Is in 

364
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:22,040
the name of Jesus wonderful. 
All the world can come in and 

365
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:27,480
have their sins removed. 
Is in the name of Jesus 

366
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:36,720
wonderful. 
Eternal King, You will reign 

367
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:48,120
forever and we will sing the 
glory of your name be lifted 

368
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:55,520
high so all the world will see. 
The name is all we need. 

369
00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:05,000
Name is all we need. 
Your name is holy. 

370
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:13,760
Your name is worthy. 
Your name is. 

371
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:28,920
Your name is holy. 
Your name is where, honey? 

372
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:46,480
Your name is Jesus. 
How beautiful, how much love. 

373
00:34:47,520 --> 00:35:04,000
This is your name, Jesus. 
How powerful, How excellent. 

374
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:26,200
His young man, the Jesus. 
And the angels cry holy, our 

375
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:42,360
creation cries holy. 
You are lifted high, holy, holy,

376
00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:55,280
frail. 
Your people sing holy to the 

377
00:35:55,280 --> 00:36:09,360
King of kings, holy. 
You will always be holy, Holy 

378
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:17,640
for life. 
Your name. 

379
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:23,560
Name is the highest. 
Your name is the greatest. 

380
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:33,760
Your name stands above them all.
All phones and dominions, all 

381
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:40,760
powers and positions. 
Your name stands above all. 

382
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:49,000
Your name is the highest. 
Your name is the greatest. 

383
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:58,520
Your name stands above them all.
All phones hit the minions. 

384
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:05,920
All powers and positions in your
name stands above them all. 

385
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:20,040
And the angels cry Holy, all 
creation, Christ holy, you are 

386
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:40,720
lifted high, holy, holy. 
And it was you made my life 

387
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:48,160
complete. 
You are to me my everything and 

388
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:57,960
that's why I see Jesus. 
I love you because you gave. 

389
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:05,080
I couldn't imagine if you 
weren't there. 

390
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:12,120
Jesus, I'll help you because you
can't. 

391
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:24,600
I couldn't imagine if you 
weren't there and it was you 

392
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:32,440
that made my life complete. 
Sometimes we just have to be. 

393
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:43,000
Reminded of that and it was you 
that made my life and you are to

394
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:53,920
my head and that's why I see. 
And after we go through worship 

395
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:57,080
and devotion, it often deepens 
our desire. 

396
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:00,120
It deepens our desire for God's 
presence. 

397
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:06,400
And when we get into that, 
there's something about being 

398
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:10,680
close to him that restores us in
ways, restores us in ways that 

399
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:14,400
we can't even explain. 
But he did it. 

400
00:39:17,720 --> 00:39:21,280
And these songs are all about 
his presence, His sweet, sweet 

401
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:27,720
presence. 
It's refresh, it's renewed and 

402
00:39:27,720 --> 00:39:31,720
it is a new everyday, every 
single moment. 

403
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:36,160
And it press we, we let it. 
When we let it press in and we 

404
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,160
seek it, we get that sweet 
connection. 

405
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:43,280
With God. 
So you could. 

406
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:56,400
Turn the songs like The More I 
seek you, The More I Fight you. 

407
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:16,120
The more I fight you, the more I
love you. 

408
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:22,240
I want to sit at your feet, 
drink from the cup into your 

409
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:25,680
head and back against you and 
breathe. 

410
00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:33,960
Feel your heartbeat it's love is
so deep. 

411
00:40:35,240 --> 00:40:43,680
It's more than I can stand. 
I rest in the so overwhelming 

412
00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:51,280
nothing else. 
Nothing else. 

413
00:40:53,560 --> 00:41:00,880
Nothing else will do. 
I just want to you and nothing, 

414
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:08,960
nothing else, nothing else, 
nothing else will you? 

415
00:41:10,240 --> 00:41:11,480
I just want you and nothing 
else. 

416
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:24,240
And nothing else. 
Nothing else will you? 

417
00:41:24,240 --> 00:41:35,960
I'm caught up in your prison. 
I just want to sit here, right 

418
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:43,040
at your feet, caught up in this 
holy moment. 

419
00:41:43,240 --> 00:41:55,320
I never want to leave. 
Oh, I'm not here for a little 

420
00:41:55,320 --> 00:42:06,400
sea Jesus. 
You don't owe me everything and 

421
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:15,160
more than anything that you can 
do, I just want you. 

422
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:52,880
To me your presence is there, 
and to me we're singing. 

423
00:42:53,440 --> 00:43:04,480
Oh Jesus, Oh Jesus, die praise 
and to me. 

424
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:24,960
Oh Jesus, how Jesus eyes your 
praise and to me to urge you I 

425
00:43:25,000 --> 00:44:21,740
live. 
I need. 

426
00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:51,960
Because in your presence there 
is freedom, chains, island and 

427
00:44:51,960 --> 00:45:04,640
lies to heal pieces. 
Waiting arm stretch open is in 

428
00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:14,480
your presence. 
Your life, that's all I need is 

429
00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:24,240
found in your presence. 
Is found in your presence. 

430
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:31,280
All I need is found in your 
presence. 

431
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:46,930
I need is found in you all that.
We get a renewed sense of 

432
00:45:46,930 --> 00:45:52,370
authority being in his presence 
and it's almost like a battery 

433
00:45:52,370 --> 00:45:57,610
it gives us gives us charge and 
that's where we can have and 

434
00:45:57,610 --> 00:46:00,610
speak in his authority because 
he's in control. 

435
00:46:03,010 --> 00:46:06,850
So we could do, we could sing 
something along the lines of 

436
00:46:06,850 --> 00:46:15,160
with lifted. 
Hands, we're in for a brand of 

437
00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:24,440
demonstration of your pie. 
We want more land stories. 

438
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:36,000
We're declaring and believing 
for a night, so we'll prepare 

439
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:43,520
the atmosphere. 
Oh, so you can be welcoming you.

440
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:51,400
Oh, anything can happen, 
Anything can happen. 

441
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:59,640
Anything can happen. 
The moment you are again, 

442
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:06,360
anything can happen. 
Anything can happen. 

443
00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:14,200
Anything, the moment that you 
walk into 

444
00:47:25,390 --> 00:47:29,390
this, every life can be 
restored. 

445
00:47:29,470 --> 00:47:39,350
I feel the room, I feel the 
room. 

446
00:47:39,390 --> 00:47:46,630
Angels are at every corner when 
you fill the room. 

447
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:54,200
Got to feel the room. 
Don't start when and if you're 

448
00:47:54,200 --> 00:48:06,800
in the room and got to feel and 
since there comes light when you

449
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:19,560
feel, there is power. 
Power in the cheese. 

450
00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:26,760
There is power in the name of 
Jesus. 

451
00:48:29,720 --> 00:48:31,000
There is power in the men. 
Jesus. 

452
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:39,760
Break every chin. 
Break every chin. 

453
00:48:40,520 --> 00:49:00,520
Break every chin. 
We may turn this on. 

454
00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:05,840
It's about authority, not 
bowing. 

455
00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:18,800
It's a song that I love right 
now that is so powerful, talks 

456
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:25,320
about not bowing, and this is 
where we stand. 

457
00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:31,000
Line in the sand, we're on the 
Lord's side Kingdom, stand 

458
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:38,080
around, don't back down, God 
will deliver us in this where we

459
00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:41,440
stand. 
Line in the sand, we're on the 

460
00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:46,040
Lord's side. 
Kingdom standing around, don't 

461
00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:52,400
back down. 
God will deliver us. 

462
00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:55,880
Bridge is so powerful because 
sometimes we need to stand up 

463
00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:58,120
and tell the devil. 
Through. 

464
00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:01,560
All of this we need to tell the 
devil that enough is enough. 

465
00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:14,000
And it says it says. 
I could never about working 

466
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:16,120
without a ground. 
Never. 

467
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:21,880
Never. 
Oh, no, Oh no. 

468
00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:28,560
I could never bow to a king 
without a crown. 

469
00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:38,080
Never. 
Oh no, Oh no, I could never bow 

470
00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:41,800
to a king without a crown. 
Never. 

471
00:50:48,610 --> 00:50:52,290
This is where we stand. 
Lying in the sand. 

472
00:50:53,170 --> 00:50:58,040
We're on the Lord Lord's side. 
Kingdom, stand your ground. 

473
00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:02,280
Come back down. 
God will deliver us. 

474
00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:06,120
This is where we stand. 
I'm in the sand. 

475
00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:09,480
We're on the Lord's side, 
Kingdom. 

476
00:51:09,480 --> 00:51:12,560
Stand your ground. 
Come back down. 

477
00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:17,320
God will deliver us. 
This is where we stand. 

478
00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:19,600
I'm in the sand, We're on the 
Lord. 

479
00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:24,800
It's our Kingdom. 
Stand your ground, don't back 

480
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:34,410
down. 
God will deliver us because He 

481
00:51:34,410 --> 00:51:43,090
love me and not do not lead me. 
How he found His perfect love 

482
00:51:43,090 --> 00:51:50,170
astounds over and over again. 
He doesn't give up. 

483
00:51:52,240 --> 00:51:59,720
He still chases. 
After me and now I can see his 

484
00:51:59,720 --> 00:52:11,040
love is enough. 
So I hope you go with this 

485
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:16,760
tonight and I hope you turn to 
some songs. 

486
00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:21,120
I hope you turn to some music 
because it becomes so powerful 

487
00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:29,440
and the drawing nearer. 
There are times that through 

488
00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:33,080
prayer and through worship of 
song, you're going to feel 

489
00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:38,040
closer to God than you have. 
And I don't know if it's because

490
00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:40,480
just the physical part of it, 
it's the emotional part. 

491
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:44,760
It's so strong. 
I'm telling you, there's nothing

492
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:50,400
like music when we are singing 
with the heavenly hosts, 

493
00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:58,320
reflecting this great thing that
we have from heaven that we 

494
00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:01,840
didn't have to have. 
It could have been exclusive to 

495
00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:04,320
heaven. 
We have never had the blessing 

496
00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:09,760
of music, but we have the 
blessing of music and worship 

497
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:14,440
and that changes our lives. 
It changes. 

498
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:21,240
It heals us when we are broken 
and it means men's things with 

499
00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:23,960
when we feel like we've gone so 
far. 

500
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:26,080
We can we can turn the stuff 
like this. 

501
00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:35,870
We can be reminded pastor's 
going to come and end out 

502
00:53:35,870 --> 00:53:38,070
service. 
I love you all. 

503
00:53:38,950 --> 00:53:42,990
Thank you for bearing with me. 
It's worship. 

504
00:53:43,670 --> 00:53:58,600
Just worship. 
When writers put pin to page and

505
00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:02,520
they particularly involve lyrics
that involve God's Word. 

506
00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:06,200
My Savior and I, when we just 
heard events, we didn't get no 

507
00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:08,960
word tonight. 
There are so many of those songs

508
00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:11,680
that were touched on tonight 
that some were verbatim 

509
00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:15,920
scripture and some were 
principles of scripture that was

510
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:18,840
being spoken. 
That's the thing about songs 

511
00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:22,320
like that, that it's, it's the 
word that's coming to you 

512
00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:25,400
through the song. 
I'll share this with you. 

513
00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:28,280
There's there's very few days 
probably that I don't pray 

514
00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:31,760
without music. 
All right, But here's something 

515
00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:34,600
what I do sometimes there's some
days I don't because I purposely

516
00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:37,560
don't because I don't want the 
music to do the praying for me. 

517
00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:39,280
Matter of fact, God spoke to me 
one time. 

518
00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:42,320
He said, turn off the music. 
Let me hear your voice, right? 

519
00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:45,400
But there's a lot of times, Ray,
I pray with music. 

520
00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:48,920
You know what I do? 
There's some days I allow the 

521
00:54:48,920 --> 00:54:53,800
lyrics of the song to direct my 
prayer, like the song that says 

522
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:56,720
Jesus I love you. 
I'll use that as a springboard 

523
00:54:56,720 --> 00:55:00,680
for my prayer. 
Or all you could just probably 

524
00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:03,360
start belching out some of these
lyrics, different lyrics that 

525
00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:05,600
just come. 
Then I use that as a springboard

526
00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:09,920
for my prayer to the Lord God is
fighting for me man, I'll start 

527
00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:13,080
praying God, I need I need you 
in this life. 

528
00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:14,760
There's some things that I'm 
facing. 

529
00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:17,480
I'll just start using then the 
lyrics of the song that come 

530
00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:21,480
through the playlist as then the
springboard for my prayer and 

531
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:23,160
you should just try it sometime 
just challenge. 

532
00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:25,120
You should try it sometimes, 
though, I just don't know what 

533
00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:28,320
to pray about man allow a lyric 
from a song just to be a 

534
00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:31,560
springboard for your prayer. 
I mean, it's already written in 

535
00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:35,200
the in the in the mode of being 
worship into the Lord man use it

536
00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:38,880
as prayer as again, many of that
is his word that's going forth 

537
00:55:38,880 --> 00:55:40,560
and different lyrics. 
There's so many lyrics we sing. 

538
00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:43,720
We don't even realize they have 
a biblical context, but they do 

539
00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:46,960
they do and they're powerful. 
They can bring all of that. 

540
00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:50,600
He spoke up tonight, healing, 
strength, redemption, reflection

541
00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:54,840
about God's love, grace and 
mercy, Amen in our lives. 

542
00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:58,360
Amen. 
Thank God, thank God for 

543
00:55:58,360 --> 00:56:02,400
creating that Amen. 
You stand with me tonight. 

544
00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:04,360
Amen. 
Have you been you felt the Holy 

545
00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:09,040
Ghost here in the president the 
Lord ministered to Amen. 

546
00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:14,960
If if David was called to soothe
the spirit, if that was 

547
00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:16,960
happening, then there's 
something that can powerful that

548
00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:20,160
can happen just through a lyric.
You know all the songs that you 

549
00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:26,200
read by and large, many of them 
SONGS, songs, whatever you 

550
00:56:26,200 --> 00:56:28,040
talking about here, David, 
talking about delivering me, 

551
00:56:28,040 --> 00:56:30,000
Lord, from the hands of my enemy
man. 

552
00:56:30,080 --> 00:56:34,080
That's a song he's singing and 
writing and pinning. 

553
00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:37,800
Amen unto the Lord. 
Let's ask God to just seal this 

554
00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:41,160
in our heart, God. 
Seal this into our hearts, God, 

555
00:56:41,160 --> 00:56:44,480
into our minds. 
I pray, O Lord, tonight, God, 

556
00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:48,000
you have given us the Lord 
Jesus, this tool, Lord, it, it 

557
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:50,640
has its origin, Lord, in the 
heavenlies. 

558
00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:54,720
I pray, O Lord, help us to use 
it, God, for your glory in our 

559
00:56:54,720 --> 00:56:57,400
own lives. 
God, it can combat fear it can 

560
00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:02,120
combat Lord intimidation it can 
that so many things that you can

561
00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:05,280
lift our spirits when it is low 
and it can set at Bay. 

562
00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:09,840
Lord God things of confusion. 
Lord it can bring the Lord a 

563
00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:13,960
rejoicing into a heart a a new 
song to be sung. 

564
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:16,840
The Lord God, a melody of praise
unto you. 

565
00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:20,360
I pray, O Lord, today, God help 
us to go Lord in the power of 

566
00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:22,680
the lyrics. 
The Lord God that's based upon 

567
00:57:22,680 --> 00:57:27,200
your word Lord in these songs 
and let them bring a salve Lord 

568
00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:31,000
in a balm of healing God to a 
mind, a heart, a soul. 

569
00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:34,080
God will thank you and will 
praise you for in the name of 

570
00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:39,040
Jesus Christ, that I pray in the
church say Amen, Amen.
