The Lord breaks in pieces, The 39 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,800 Cedars of Lebanon, he makes the Lebanon. 40 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:36,300 It makes Lebanon, skip like a cough, Syrian like a young wild 41 00:02:36,300 --> 00:02:39,700 ox, the voice of the Lord strikes, And we flashes of 42 00:02:39,700 --> 00:02:44,300 lightning, the voice of the Lord shakes, the the desert, the Lord 43 00:02:44,300 --> 00:02:48,100 shakes, the desert of Kadesh the voice of the Lord, twist The 44 00:02:48,100 --> 00:02:53,900 Oaks and strips to Forest Bay and in his Temple, all cry. 45 00:02:53,900 --> 00:02:57,600 Glory the lord sits enthroned over the flood. 46 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,000 The Lord is in Throne as king forever. 47 00:03:00,300 --> 00:03:03,900 The Lord gives strength to his people, the Lord blesses, his 48 00:03:03,900 --> 00:03:09,000 people with peace, even the piece that we've Been praying 49 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,700 for our nation. This morning. 50 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:16,900 This has been written by David and it was actually when ass 51 00:03:16,900 --> 00:03:20,800 Mighty storm was actually striking Israel. 52 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,900 In fact, the whole of the Middle East was being under a severe 53 00:03:24,900 --> 00:03:30,300 storm, almost like what we saw through Madagascar and and 54 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,900 Mozambique and Zimbabwe Malawi, and all that. 55 00:03:32,900 --> 00:03:36,900 So something to that effect was happening in Israel, and we all 56 00:03:36,900 --> 00:03:41,500 know David, When is undone, when he's in trouble, he was not a 57 00:03:41,508 --> 00:03:45,100 man that refrain from actually complaining to God about the 58 00:03:45,100 --> 00:03:49,000 travel at surrounded in. But here, it's different here is 59 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,300 actually praising God from a beginning of the of the some 60 00:03:52,300 --> 00:03:54,800 till the end of it. It's amazing. 61 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,300 I looked at it and I thought, you know, you've got all the 62 00:03:58,300 --> 00:04:01,500 good reasons why you could complain but actually, it seems 63 00:04:01,500 --> 00:04:04,600 like he is learned. Something is in the middle of a 64 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:09,500 storm. In fact, this this someone's 65 00:04:09,500 --> 00:04:11,900 actually highlighted to me when Kai was busy. 66 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,800 You know, there was three or 24 weeks ago, he actually made a 67 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:20,300 contribution using this some and it was during a time that the 68 00:04:20,700 --> 00:04:24,500 storm actually started in over all of southern Africa. 69 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,300 I don't know if you are like me. I don't like storms. 70 00:04:30,300 --> 00:04:33,000 I don't like lightning. I don't like them when I'm 71 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:38,300 flying. I don't particularly like them. 72 00:04:38,300 --> 00:04:41,900 Are you taking off for when we Landing, you know, to me for the 73 00:04:41,900 --> 00:04:43,500 palette? I'll just bring that Aeroplane 74 00:04:43,500 --> 00:04:48,200 down and carry with the highway until the storm is over. 75 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:52,600 Then we fly again. I don't like them on the ground, 76 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:57,800 you know, 30 years ago, I was at a high school and in fact, it 77 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,800 wasn't even raining, and one of the guy got hit by a lightning. 78 00:05:02,700 --> 00:05:05,600 So even when you're on ground, you still not safe in the sky, 79 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,700 you're not safe. I don't know if you can really 80 00:05:07,700 --> 00:05:10,800 show the a picture where I work these days. 81 00:05:12,100 --> 00:05:15,600 The piling rig. So to build a bridge, we will 82 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,600 draw and then there's a whole picture of and then pick 83 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,000 somebody has to go in there and actually check. 84 00:05:22,300 --> 00:05:27,400 You don't want to storm to hit when you are under that hole. 85 00:05:28,700 --> 00:05:30,500 So I don't like storms in the sky. 86 00:05:30,500 --> 00:05:32,700 I don't like storms in on the ground. 87 00:05:32,700 --> 00:05:34,800 I don't like storms underground's. 88 00:05:35,100 --> 00:05:39,000 I just don't like storms. I don't like storms around the 89 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:44,200 fisting table. We got invited by someone from 90 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:48,300 our church called Jacques Brethren Brethren Camp. 91 00:05:48,300 --> 00:05:50,500 His wife is Michelle's or so excited. 92 00:05:50,500 --> 00:05:52,700 Oh my middle name is Jacque. If case you didn't know 93 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:58,400 Christian Jacques of area for cons, I went to we went and we 94 00:05:58,500 --> 00:06:03,000 Actually having a feast. And then in the middle of the 95 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,900 feast, he decided to tell us that he got hit by lightning one 96 00:06:05,900 --> 00:06:06,500 day. I mean. 97 00:06:06,900 --> 00:06:09,100 And then I'm like, you know what you should have told me that 98 00:06:09,100 --> 00:06:13,800 before inviting me. I felt like moving to the other 99 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:18,100 side of the table, you know, like like Vladimir Putin style, 100 00:06:18,100 --> 00:06:23,000 you know, you there I'm here, lightning doesn't hit twice the 101 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:27,500 same place but I don't want to to actually be the when it when 102 00:06:27,500 --> 00:06:32,200 it does. You know, in some 22, David is 103 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:37,200 complaining, some 44 is complaining, but in some 49 104 00:06:37,300 --> 00:06:41,300 actually 29 is not complaining. He is worshipping. 105 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:46,000 Ascribe to the Lord is worshiping in the middle of a 106 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,300 storm is worshipping. And is actually, ask is saying 107 00:06:49,300 --> 00:06:56,800 ascribe to the Lord Almighty 10, Heavenly beings bubble comment. 108 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,800 Commentators actually are saying that those mighty one are not 109 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,500 necessarily children of God. They actually angels in heaven, 110 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,800 so it feels as if David is saying, I might not be able to 111 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:11,500 describe God. Adequately. 112 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:17,000 So I'm actually calling for the help of angels to ascribe glory 113 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:21,300 to God because I might miss it, I might focus on the storm and 114 00:07:21,300 --> 00:07:23,400 actually mr. Fact that God is busy with 115 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,600 something bigger. So I'm going to ask for help, 116 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,900 I'm going to worship but I'm not, I'm not going to try and 117 00:07:29,900 --> 00:07:31,800 worship in my own knowledge, in my own. 118 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:36,000 Understanding our call for Heavenly beings for angels' to 119 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,400 help me worship. God, I guess that's why you 120 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,400 probably don't even have. Were banned because we are 121 00:07:41,407 --> 00:07:45,900 trying to dig deep to, to a place where we say, do we really 122 00:07:45,900 --> 00:07:48,600 understand God to worship Him adequately. 123 00:07:49,500 --> 00:07:53,300 We don't understand him. So let us may be called do 124 00:07:53,300 --> 00:07:56,000 something new. Not with the help of the band, 125 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,400 not to our own Harper, actually angels, helping us to describe 126 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:05,400 God and describe glory to him. You know, we were in a bit of a 127 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:10,900 storm 2017, we're living in Durban and we're moving to Well, 128 00:08:10,900 --> 00:08:13,800 actually, we knew that God was calling us to move to Pretoria. 129 00:08:14,100 --> 00:08:19,900 So my wife and my two children, but we didn't know we had so 130 00:08:19,900 --> 00:08:24,200 many storms around us and one of them was affected Helen, my 131 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,200 wife. I don't know if you woman just 132 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:33,400 standing there, so many people. So this is Helen my wife. 133 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:46,700 My photos. So she she had to as she had to 134 00:08:46,700 --> 00:08:49,800 have an operation and we didn't know that she has to have an 135 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,600 operation in Durban before we come to Pretoria or we come to 136 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,700 Pretoria, but we didn't know anything about, you know, 137 00:08:55,900 --> 00:08:58,100 operations around Coke, Pretoria and all that. 138 00:08:58,500 --> 00:09:01,500 So they were, there was a lady. She still part of our church, 139 00:09:01,500 --> 00:09:04,400 but in those days, she was, she was working for, for the church 140 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,000 staff. And name is Adel, man. 141 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:12,300 She's one of our worship leaders Adele man, just booked us to 142 00:09:12,300 --> 00:09:17,400 stay with. Dwayne and Gail fairmark, 143 00:09:17,900 --> 00:09:22,700 daughters and Tegan and there's Jordan I think and ever and and 144 00:09:22,900 --> 00:09:26,300 there's Bruce and Winston. I mean Bruce and Winston are the 145 00:09:26,300 --> 00:09:30,600 dogs at. I've just forgotten the name of 146 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:39,600 the third dog. So we stay there but then there 147 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,100 was still something that happened. 148 00:09:42,900 --> 00:09:46,800 We had a Bry, we set it on the table, we started talking. 149 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:51,200 And then we discovered that they were actually Dwayne was a 150 00:09:52,100 --> 00:09:56,700 orthopedic surgeon specialist. And we knew at that point time 151 00:09:56,700 --> 00:10:03,300 that actually we were in the right house, the right space and 152 00:10:03,300 --> 00:10:05,100 one of the storm was actually a piece. 153 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,500 East. He actually operated on Helen a 154 00:10:08,500 --> 00:10:12,000 couple of months. When we move to to Pretoria, you 155 00:10:12,008 --> 00:10:14,400 know. That was to me like a lightning. 156 00:10:15,300 --> 00:10:18,500 That God's manifestation like a lightning. 157 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:24,300 We saw God at work. but then during the night, the biggest of 158 00:10:24,300 --> 00:10:29,300 storm hit Pretoria to the first time I was in a storm like that 159 00:10:29,300 --> 00:10:33,800 in Pretoria where you see the lightning and you hear the 160 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:41,800 thunder almost at the same time. You know, I realize one thing. 161 00:10:43,100 --> 00:10:49,600 That's this, this city here as got the Finger of God upon it. 162 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:53,900 From long time ago. I've never experienced storms 163 00:10:54,100 --> 00:10:58,800 and Thunders and lightning, like it is around Pretoria. 164 00:10:59,100 --> 00:11:01,300 Maybe there are places in the world that is got that. 165 00:11:01,300 --> 00:11:06,000 But Pretoria is got something special storms and lightning and 166 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:10,700 Thunders. You know, the speed of light, 167 00:11:11,100 --> 00:11:13,400 the speed of light is a like, big numbers. 168 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:29,100 Listen carefully. It's 1 million 79,000. 169 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,500 Two hundred and fifty two thousand, eight hundred and 170 00:11:34,500 --> 00:11:41,400 forty nine thousand thousand. There are no sense there. 171 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:47,800 Kilometers per hour, the speed of sound at that, when we can 172 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:56,700 handle 1234 there's some sense a 80 cents km/h it means when a 173 00:11:56,700 --> 00:12:03,900 lightning hits Pretoria it takes about zero comma, zero to s for 174 00:12:03,900 --> 00:12:09,600 hit to be seen in the oven. That's fast. 175 00:12:10,100 --> 00:12:15,600 That's a money, first power of God, but the same storm. 176 00:12:16,100 --> 00:12:20,700 The Thunder will be heard in Durban half an hour later. 177 00:12:21,500 --> 00:12:24,800 So you see the lightning? But then half an hour later, you 178 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:28,500 don't even know if what you are. Hearing was actually the Thunder 179 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:36,700 because distance Distort And Delay distance, distort and 180 00:12:36,700 --> 00:12:39,300 delay. But here in Pretoria, there's no 181 00:12:39,300 --> 00:12:42,800 distance between the lightning and the Thunder. 182 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,100 We see it and we can have the interpretation of it. 183 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:53,200 When God act in Pretoria, we see is manifestation in a lightning 184 00:12:53,700 --> 00:12:55,800 and we hear is voice in the fund. 185 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,600 No delay. No delay. 186 00:12:59,900 --> 00:13:03,000 Other people see it from here, it from far, and they don't 187 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,300 know. Sometimes they were even think 188 00:13:04,300 --> 00:13:07,800 that we are the lightning. We are the one that are causing 189 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,300 this light, but actually, the Thunder comes later. 190 00:13:11,300 --> 00:13:14,400 And they've lost all perspective on the lightning. 191 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:19,000 But here in Pretoria, we are not going to attribut, any glory to 192 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,800 anyone for the lighting, because we have seen the lightning and 193 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:26,700 we have heard the voice of God, couple of minutes, couple of 194 00:13:26,700 --> 00:13:27,900 seconds after that. In fact. 195 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:32,600 We hit we see, and we hear it at the same time, in the middle of 196 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,600 the storm. That's why David says, in Psalm 197 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:41,400 27:1 thing, that desire, one thing that I want is to be in 198 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:45,800 the house of God, dwell in the house of God, dwell in the storm 199 00:13:45,900 --> 00:13:49,000 where there's the Manifest presence of God, and I hear his 200 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:54,100 voice, a couple of seconds later, one thing that we've got, 201 00:13:54,100 --> 00:13:57,900 many things that we want, but I pray that we will be like David. 202 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:02,600 One thing that I want is to be in the middle of the storm where 203 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,700 the father is speaking with manifesting his glory. 204 00:14:06,700 --> 00:14:11,200 And any speaking to interpret That Glory, his word comes to 205 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:16,700 confirm couple of seconds later. Couple of seconds later. 206 00:14:17,700 --> 00:14:22,200 You know. We had covered to me, there was 207 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:26,500 a manifest power of God, but the interpretation was always not 208 00:14:26,500 --> 00:14:31,700 right until I met someone meat. So I can see you there. 209 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,400 He gave me a lift and he told me, you know what covid did for 210 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,700 me? It made me understand, give us 211 00:14:37,700 --> 00:14:40,900 today. Our daily bread when people are 212 00:14:40,900 --> 00:14:46,400 giving wrong interpretation but vaccines about microchips and 213 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,400 all that he had the right interpretation because I was in 214 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,500 the middle of the storm called covid. 215 00:14:51,500 --> 00:14:56,100 He could see the Manifest power of God and his interpretation of 216 00:14:56,100 --> 00:14:59,100 the right. One, give me today, my daily 217 00:14:59,100 --> 00:15:01,500 bread, our prey. I've learned to pray for my 218 00:15:01,500 --> 00:15:04,200 business in the middle of a storm called covert. 219 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:08,600 God has allowed us to build this building in the middle of a 220 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,800 stone called covered the lightning of God. 221 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,600 And the voice of God to confirm that in order. 222 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:23,100 The David was was actually he can maybe give us that map. 223 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:30,700 If you go in verse 3 he says that the voice of God was on the 224 00:15:30,700 --> 00:15:33,000 on the sea. So that Thunder was coming from 225 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:37,500 the sea Mediterranean Sea and I need it went into Lebanon that's 226 00:15:37,500 --> 00:15:43,900 tyre and sidon and then it went into Mount Mount Hermon which is 227 00:15:43,900 --> 00:15:46,900 still in Lebanon and then it comes the X to Kadesh. 228 00:15:48,300 --> 00:15:51,600 Which is close to Egypt. You, probably asking yourself, 229 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,400 how did he know? Because for us to know that 230 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,200 ferdy the storm was hitting southern Africa. 231 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,600 We had to, we had TVs and all that. 232 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,600 How did he know that? You know, there was no light 233 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:05,000 pollution in those days. So it could be in the middle, 234 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:10,500 maybe a Jerusalem but he could see the lightning traveling. 0 235 00:16:10,500 --> 00:16:14,000 comma, 0 comma 2, s and it and you could see it. 236 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,000 There was no light pollution almost like when you're in the 237 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,700 Kruger. You know, you can see light from 238 00:16:18,700 --> 00:16:23,300 a distance, but then you saw it going north and then it came 239 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,400 South. But then guess what? 240 00:16:25,900 --> 00:16:28,500 It didn't really need to go to Hammond, but it seems our God is 241 00:16:28,500 --> 00:16:33,700 showing us something God wanted everybody often on the promised 242 00:16:33,700 --> 00:16:36,500 land, all Israelites to be covered by the storm. 243 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,700 Everybody to be cover the Eastern tribes, the Western 244 00:16:40,700 --> 00:16:44,100 tribe, the north of the country, the south of the country, 245 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:51,100 everybody covered by the storm Rich, poor black white, young 246 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:56,900 old, male female, everybody covered by the storm, everybody 247 00:16:56,900 --> 00:17:00,000 in the middle of the storm, because that's a place where we 248 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:05,099 discover that we are sheep without help in need of a 249 00:17:05,099 --> 00:17:07,700 shepherd. And he's giving us All the 250 00:17:07,700 --> 00:17:10,700 opportunity to be in the middle of the storm so that we can 251 00:17:10,700 --> 00:17:17,099 realize that we are sheep in. Need of a Shepherd everybody. 252 00:17:17,099 --> 00:17:22,200 The whole lens Mount Hermon. Yes, it's uncomfortable. 253 00:17:22,599 --> 00:17:25,700 Yes, it's actually. It's inconvenient to be in the 254 00:17:25,708 --> 00:17:28,800 middle of a storm but that's what we discover that we need 255 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,700 the shepherd, the voice of the Lord verse 5. 256 00:17:32,300 --> 00:17:36,400 Over the waters, the ESV actually says, over many Waters, 257 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,400 what are the warning? Waters, that are sinking us. 258 00:17:40,100 --> 00:17:45,100 The economy is going down. the reins exchange against the 259 00:17:45,100 --> 00:17:49,300 dollar going down, salaries are no longer lasting as like a used 260 00:17:49,300 --> 00:17:53,600 to be Salary is actually sinking in a petrol price. 261 00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:00,300 But the voice of the Lord, the voice of the Lord is powerful, 262 00:18:00,300 --> 00:18:04,700 over the water. Peter says, Lord is it you, if 263 00:18:04,700 --> 00:18:08,500 it is you just say a word and I will come, I will walk on the 264 00:18:08,500 --> 00:18:12,500 water when there's a storm when is, when we're in the middle of 265 00:18:12,500 --> 00:18:15,000 the storm, when you are in the middle of the sea, the father is 266 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:20,100 reminding us call upon me. I will speak my voice and then 267 00:18:20,100 --> 00:18:24,200 water will turn into a grind night flow where you can 268 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,100 actually walk. You're not going to sink 269 00:18:27,100 --> 00:18:31,400 Pretoria. If you call upon my name you 270 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:35,800 will walk on firm ground. I'm able to turn the sea into a 271 00:18:36,300 --> 00:18:39,300 grass. I mean into a not cross grind 272 00:18:39,300 --> 00:18:44,900 night flow that you can actually walk the voice of God is 273 00:18:44,900 --> 00:18:48,500 powerful. We're in a storm when a 274 00:18:48,500 --> 00:18:51,800 politician things that they are powerful, but to voice of God, 275 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,100 is more powerful than any politician. 276 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,700 Just look around. Just look around. 277 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,000 Look at the president of Turkey today. 278 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:04,000 Big turmoil why popularity has gone down? 279 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:08,500 I mean he has never been popular anyway, popularity is gone. 280 00:19:08,500 --> 00:19:11,200 Why? Because of the earthquake God 281 00:19:11,300 --> 00:19:14,600 can actually dislodge a powerful person. 282 00:19:15,500 --> 00:19:19,900 Just by causing a storm, a thunder earthquake. 283 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,300 Flood. Then the election everything. 284 00:19:24,300 --> 00:19:26,500 All the rigging of the election is now in underwater. 285 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:32,100 The voice of God is Majestic. In what Majestic means? 286 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,500 It's Unique. Can't be compared to any other. 287 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:42,600 It's actually eminent exalted above all other voices. 288 00:19:43,700 --> 00:19:47,800 We are in a storm. Where the world wants us to be 289 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:52,400 quiet. We can't even have Our opinion 290 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:56,200 even though they say freedom of expression, I mean, did you hear 291 00:19:56,700 --> 00:19:59,900 Reverend what is what is the name Calvin Robinson at the 292 00:19:59,900 --> 00:20:06,000 Oxford Union search? Gwen here because of voice of 293 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:10,900 God is like thunder. We cannot be silent. 294 00:20:11,300 --> 00:20:13,900 We are not going to be disrespectful, but to voice of 295 00:20:13,900 --> 00:20:17,900 God is like thunder where people can actually voice their opinion 296 00:20:17,900 --> 00:20:21,400 because that freedom of expression is also freedom to 297 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:28,300 express our belief. Freedom to express that God is 298 00:20:28,300 --> 00:20:31,700 majestic, is unique is above all other God? 299 00:20:32,500 --> 00:20:36,600 God is above with idolatry. His voice is like thunder. 300 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:40,900 When his voice speaks. It's actually everything. 301 00:20:40,900 --> 00:20:44,300 You can't hear anything else that when there's when there's 302 00:20:44,300 --> 00:20:47,700 Thunder, you can't hear anything else you Run for Cover. 303 00:20:47,900 --> 00:20:50,500 I remember, when we, when we, when we were children, you see 304 00:20:50,500 --> 00:20:54,000 the lightning and, you know, like, okay, there's just enough 305 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:55,900 time for me to do the sign of the cross. 306 00:20:55,900 --> 00:20:58,000 Because we were catholic and it's like, okay now now I'm 307 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,700 protected. And then the sound comes and 308 00:21:01,700 --> 00:21:04,300 defens. Everything out, silence all the 309 00:21:04,300 --> 00:21:07,600 other voices. The voice of God. 310 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:13,000 Moves the mountains. Moves the mountains. 311 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:17,600 I mean God says I'm Al Shaddai as mighty as a mountain. 312 00:21:17,700 --> 00:21:22,400 I can't be moved. I can't be moved but I can move 313 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,500 any other Mountain.

In fact, the word says, the 316 00:21:32,100 --> 00:21:36,400 voice of God makes Mount almond skip like a cough. 317 00:21:37,500 --> 00:21:39,100 Steve ever seen a mountain skipping. 318 00:21:40,900 --> 00:21:42,900 The voice of God does that Michael? 319 00:21:42,900 --> 00:21:45,700 Isn't tells a beautiful story where he says, you know, I 320 00:21:45,700 --> 00:21:56,000 Kilimanjaro used to be in Kenya. and then one day, Queen Victoria 321 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,300 was where I had a cousin.
